0 flynn on foxnation.com. have the best evening with the ones you love, the upside of this sad moment it may bring you closer to them. tammy bruce is in for a sean hannity this columbus day and we are proud to say she takes over now. >> tammy: thank you, tucker and happy columbus day to you and to everyone. welcome aboard, everyone to this special edition of hannity, the left's radical agenda.e i'm tammy bruce in for sean and tonight, wemy begin at 1600 pennsylvania avenue where the biden administration is facing yet another lingering crisis. this time, w it's a crisis of confidence. three new polls show biden underwater by double digits and for good reason. nine months and then the president has failed on literally everything. the southern border is a nightmare, the afghan withdrawal was a disaster, covid-19 is not under control and the economy is struggling mightily. inflation is through the roof energy prices are reaching record levels, food prices are at a 10-year high and america's supply chain is in a state of chaos. cargo ships off the coast of california and new york are unable to unload because of a lack of dockworkers. meanwhile, goods and products are now piling up in warehouses because of a lack of truck drivers. american retailers are facing nationwide shortages. just in time for christmas, of course. it's so bad that some large corporations are chartering private cargo ships, a costly move thatt will be paid for by guess who?wi you, the consumer. but that's not all, travel delays are wreaking havoc nationwide. over the weekend, southwest airlines canceled over 1,000 flights blamingou inclement weather but many are wondering if staffing issues going to thee companies employ vaccine mandates are really to blame. joining us now is the author of "beyond biden, rebuilding the america we love" sounds great former speaker ofe the house in fox news contributor newt gingrich. mr. speaker, thank you very much for being with me. >> it's good to be with you. >> tammy: very briefly that i laid out here for everyone everyone's experience did. the average american knows about the crisis, they know about the gas prices, the violence going ton. we see it all around us. when you're a speaker and you've had some terrific speeches, your approach is always an inspirational, optimistic look forward. whatn do you make now as our problems continue? >> i had to start by saying that a friend of mine just wrote us and say i don't usually brag about going to expensive places but i just left the gas station. in that kind of captured -- i filled up my truck and it was $64 and it used to be 30 and that's the biden inflation tax on all of us. when he said he wouldn't tax anybody under 400,000. it would be a lie if biden had any idea what he was saying. but i'm increasingly convinced thathe the entire left lives ina fantasy world where none of these facts matter and it's a very hard thing to explain to people. the big government socialistsle know they can't be honest about it so they invent all of these things. a good example is what's happening withth the border. the problem is less and less guatemala, honduras, and el salvador. the problem now is haitians who fly from port-au-prince into ecuador, come upri through columbia, across the darien gap and end up literally coming all the way up. it's africans who are coming into brazil and coming on up. the word is out around the planet, joe biden wants you to break the law, once you to come to the u.s. illegally, so people there saying why not? your choices port-au-prince and new orleans. questioning which is the better life for you and your family. you see this on every front. >> tammy: it is the greatest country on earth. it is impossible at this point. his in this really showing us that a single american leader of matters, that t leadership at te top and the presidency as we see the juxtaposition between trump and biden, that that is what matters when it comes to leadership and what happens in this country? >> i also think it's the congress, i also think it's governors and state legislators. we are a remarkable country allowing people to be engaged in self-governing and what we are seeing is an amazing split. you have california doing insanely stupid things driving people out of california toward states that have rational government. the gap between red states and the worst of the blue states is to go totally different countries. the red states with the republican governors, republican legislators, lower taxes, less regulation, favoring work favoring the job creation. they are going to do great. they also have schools that actually work. these blueue states, california chicago, illinois, new york they are disasters and all going ideology doesn't work, their union allies are destroying the system and i think it's a real crisis of the american system and whether or not in the next five or six years we eliminate this radical big government socialism, go back to a traditional american model where work matters, taxes ought to be low, you want to be responsible for your own o life and you sout in virginia when you're the democrat candidate for governor saying parents should not be involved in the schools. to say that in a debate tells you how deeply the unions want to own the school room and your child and how much they hate having parents beou involved. >> tammy: i think it also is a signifier of the contempt with which the democrats nowhi hold e average american. it that this suggestion even that parents do not have a say or are not the ones in control of their children, that this now is so common at least within their conversation at a cocktail party that it slips out at a debate because this is what they discussed with their friends or even the ralph northam dynamic with post birth abortion. these conversations that have shocked the conscience of the average american radicalizing parents as we see with the doj reaction to their involvement as school board meetings, the fact that parents are getting so uppity that theyat want to contl what their children learn, he was see what the doj is an example is doing in its reaction, is this the radicalization of parents i can take this country back and move us back into the traditional framework that has made us a country worth coming to? >> sure. i think when you realize there was a poll out today that 58% of people regard the federal government as a threat to their freedom. what you're beginning to move towards is a war -- not a physical war, but a cultural war between the bureaucracy, the academic world, and the news media and the rest of us and the truth is, there are more of us than there are of these big government socialist radicals who want to impose a very weird worldview who are apparently prepared to fight the american people. in the long run in a free society, may be in china or b in russia or in nazi germany, you could use the power of the state and get away with it. in a free country, you can't in the rebellion of starting with the election in virginia this year and extending into '22 and '24 is going to be astonishing and these radical democrats of which you look at his career, he was once sort of a centrist and now has to be a radical because otherwise he can't run as a democrat. >> tammy: what a collapse of a legacy and a history in any kind of sense of what people thought was real because we've certainly got a wake-upth call. newt gingrich, great stuff great new book coming up thank you so much for coming on tonight. i appreciate it. tonight for some reason despite battling multiple crises at home and abroad, joe a biden rarely works a full day here this afternoon, he called a lid j around 4:00 p.m. and each weekend, joe typically jets off to the beach after a strenuous three or four day work week. meanwhile, his cabinet is not much better. after months of silence, his transportation secretary pete buttigieg shrugged off america's supply chain crisis has something that will take years to resolve. meanwhile, kamala harris is avoiding anything related to the border. last week, she skipped out on a border security meeting in mexico city and recently participated in a bizarre video about faraway planets. take a look at this. >> i just love the idea of exploring the unknown. and other things that we just haven't figured out were discovered yet. to think about so much that's out there that we still have to learn, i love that. so very excited about the space council. we are going to learn so much as we increasingly are curious and interested in the potential c fr the discoveries and the work we can do. so that's one of the things i'm most excited about. but you guys are going to see you're going to literally see the craters on the moon with your own eyes. with your own eyes, i'm telling you. it is going to be unbelievable. >> tammy: talk about cringe. with white house chief of staff reince priebus and matt schlapp gentlemen, it is remarkable. i felt that if kamala harris is an authentic normal person wasn't just thinking about '24 or didn't think that she had achieved the goal of simply being elected, every single thing she does is odd. there's an affectation that is artificial, there is this strange emotional artificiality. how do you explain the nature of we've all seen politicians we like and we don't like. this seems to be a wholly different issue. what's your take on what she's up to? >> i don't know anybody who hangs around a lot of kids like we do, that's not how you treat kids and all i can do when i think of kamala harris talking to kids of various ages is think about how when brett kavanaugh was that age, she accused him of some ofen the most heinous thins ever. this is a phony baloney dayquil hyped up kind of performance and what they don't get is that we have all of these crazies going on all over the country in afghanistan, the border, the cargo ships outside in california, trump would affix that in like 11 minutes. and why on gods green earth would they put up this outrageous video that makes people feel like they don't take their problem seriously. >> tammy: i think that's exactly the issue because we have a legitimacy problem biden's numbers on every issue are down precipitously including on the issue of trust and this is why he supposedly was elected, people are realizingd, that they were taken as smocks and we don't like that but here you have this bad theater, it is bad theater while we are dealing with so many crises. your experience in the white house, the nature of the choices that have to be made what do you think the biden administration is doing at this point? do they realize the kind of trouble they are in beyond the polls, that this is almost irretrievable and that kamala harris is not going to help? >> they are certainly leaking on each other in politico so the biden administration is leaking on kamala harris and they are leaking on the biden administration and a lot of times in the white house office can operate a little bit independently from the actual president'se office and their teams are separated actually and i think in the case of the video, matt is right. this is about overproduced and it's fake as the biden sets in the white house. it really is the truman show. but i think what's going on here is that kamala harris is separating herself from joe biden and his 38%. she supposed to be the border nothing is happening. doing fluffor news on the view doing videos like this.in she's almost gotten herself to the point where she too is unusable when you t mention the virginia raid and the interview both biden and kamala harris can't go to virginia because their numbers with independence are below 40. >> tammy: shocking, just nine months income of the ability to reverse even noncovid is now underwater. on the border, significantly underwater and then what we see unfolding here, you'd think these werewe all unforced error. these aree things done because f their bad policies like the cargo ships, the domino effect of that as we are dealing with this economic problem is shocking.t mayor pete, don't forget he was going to be the nominee to be the ambassador to china and so here's this guy who's been in charge of transportation shipping and he is shrugging at this point, do they not realize either they don't realize the domino effect or they don't care and they likeke the results, whh one is it? >> i like what you said which is these are unforced errors. the border was secured by donald trump but they don't have to like donald trump, but that sure better for a president even obama recognized if you look at afghanistan, another unforced error and now they haven't even done budget and taxes yet which is going to really cripple the economy. i think it's very fragile but the other thing to focus on his these poll numbers, remember biden is always rated on the curve in these poll numbers so even all these polling companies are giving him a few points. it's very hard for a president to come back this earlyy in his presidency when it's a universal decision in this country. he is not up to the job and he is just not connecting to them on how serious it is that you can get a flight. i don't know if i'm going to fly out tomorrow. you rent a car coming will be paying up to five bucks a gallon for gas.s. the american people are hurting and they are putting out videos about the moon. >> tammy: i'll give you the last word here. the irony that they are passing supposedly fighting over an infrastructure bill when the mistakes they're making and choices they are making our what's responsible for a collapse of our actual infrastructure, what do you think, are the republicans actually going to try to stop the nature of what they are doing? every single thing they've done has been a disaster, this bill will pile onto this, don't we have a moral responsibility don't the republicans to actually take aggressive action to stop this instead of just letting the democrats fight amongst themselves?re >> we are not talking about nipping around the edges here. this is about changing american culture.ut what the democrats are proposing is permanent changes from cradle to grave taking care of americans, free pre-k, free college, no college debt. this is about the future of our country.e by the way, you talk about the border. one of the things i think republicans need to realize is i don't think i that the democrats in their mind are not mishandling the border.em this is what they believe, they want this country to be the home of any person that wants to come here. republicans believe in the rule of law and you ought to wait in line to do things the proper way. they are being successful. this is what they want. newt gingrich said it right this is a cultural war for who we are as americans now. we have to fight like crazy. >> tammy: they've got to.. americans do not want this on the republicans have got to step up. forget about '22 in '24, it's about saving thisfo american framework and the american dream. thank you very much, a lot on our plate but americans have faced even more in the past and we can do it. biden's border crisis continues to spiral. griff jenkins joins us from panama when he spoke to migrants making their way to our southern border will also get reaction from laura logan and dana loesch. you won't believe what hillary clinton said today about the future of politics. stay with us as the special edition of hannity continues.
