saying they need to notch a win ahead of the midterms. and whispers on whether biden should run again are screaming headlines. democrats openly worry about his age and low approval. adding to the president's misfortunes are the optics, president biden after he tried to get off his bike in delaware. thankfully he's okay. he was back on the beach, getting defensive, as more economists warn a recession could be coming. >> is it more likely than ever? come on. don't make things up. you don't like a republican politician. i'm joking. all kidding aside, i was talking to larry summers this morning, and there's nothing inevitable about a recession. i'm working with -- our team has put together at the same time. my dear mother used to have an expression. something good will happen if you look for it. we have a chance to make a fundamental turn to renewable energy. >> greg, you know what it's like when your feet don't touch the ground on a bike, and you stop and can't get off gracefully. maybe that happened. >> he's a tall fellow. bikes are tricky. generally you could pedal them. if you stop pedaling, you will fall over. this is something you learn, hence the training wheels. simple step, when you stop pedaling, you put your feet on the ground, and you're safe. it's not a big deal. in fact, it's not a big deal at all. you have this inclination for payback, because you had a 48-hour news cycle about donald trump shuffling down a thing with his new shoes. i'm happy he didn't leave his bike anywhere. i mean, hunter left his will not, his wife left a gun, then the other daughter left a diary. at least he picked up the bike. the biggest crime has nothing to do with his bike. it's his popped-up collar. he's become the jesse watters of presidents. seriously looking at this. how cheesy is this? what's next? is joe going to take off fridays to us inner his back? is he going to eat food that belongs to the staff? is he going to blame his assistant for everything? you know, this is a sure sign that this presidency is over. >> it's certainly looking that way. >> i did not see that coming. >> instead of letting the embarrassing moment go, right, if your president is on a bike, he falls over, just take the "l" for the day. don't get on twitter and say, "but trump." it doesn't make you look good. they were trying to show vim and vigor. and they put him on a bike on a four-day weekend when everybody else across america is worried about inflation and gas prices. every weekend it's a four-day weekend for them at the beach. >> permission to speak on behalf of the american people? everybody wants our president to look good in public. we don't live in greece. we have high expectations for presidential performance. we like our presidents to have good hair, quick wit, some swagger. we want someone to look good on television. we liked it when barack obama played full-court pickup basketball. we liked it when trump hits it down the middle. we like it when bush throws it down the middle. or bill clinton puts his short-shorts on and goes jogging for god knows what. but you also have to be handsome, like jfk was very handsome, reagan was very handsome, movie star. when you get out there, fall off a bike. that's unacceptable to the american people. we are aghast. and in a sense we also pity the president. i don't want to pity the president. that makes my job harder. i like to despise the president. this is not a good emotion for me. internationally this is humiliating. you can hear trudeau snickering if you point your ear north. almost as bad as barack obama bowing to the saudi king. at least barack didn't fall on his face when he did it. content is king. the white house has to keep pushing out positive content. what's seared into the american people? a chaotic evacuation from afghanistan. a president that has a mask on his time all the time. camma lacackling, the high price of gasoline, reminding us how bad this guy is. he gets up from the fall, and says to the reporters, "i'm fine." the reporters print the story, "joe is fine." joe is not fine. nothing is fine. he's had two aneurysms, before he became president. he broke his foot last year. he's fallen twice. son is corrupt, under investigation. he's the worst polled president in the history of presidential polling. we're sliding into a recession. permission to make an analogy. >> sure. how can i stop you? >> it's like dating a girl. ready? sex is terrible. your family and friends hate her. you get into fights all the time. your bank account has been drained ever since you met her. you walk over to her apartment to break up with her, and she goes, oh, what are you doing? everything is fine. no, everything is not fine. joe biden is a clueless mess. this is not good. this is as close to a constitutional crisis as we've ever. >> permission withdrawn. >> i've had better during impeachment, i think. >> harold, the one narrative -- >> you're calling on me? >> i'm changing the subject. >> skip over to the judge. >> here's the thing that i think is amazing. the one narrative that's starting to stick, they don't have any new ideas. all of his people talk like academics, who are basically throwing a weird slogan again the wall. this is the new line on the spin the wheel of what we're going to say this weekend. it was that a recession is not inevitable. >> chairman powell has said that his goal is to bring inflation down while maintaining a strong labor market that's going to take skill and luck. but i believe it's possible. i don't think that a recession is inevitable. >> not only is a recession not inevitable, but what we as policymakers can do is take steps to build on our unique strengths in the american economy and try to get to that stable and steady growth that we want to get to as quickly as possible. >> inflation is happening globally. a recession is not nevin. the president really wants to have -- >> what do you think of that, harold? the recession is not inevitable is the selling point. >> that means you have to do something to make it not inevitable. >> the presidency is an office as designed and intended by the framers to be an office of action. some of the frustration calls for the president to act. i hear you. if i were the president, and to quote larry summers often, larry summers is one of those those economists who thinks a recession is not inevitable. we can't quote him when he's in favor of things we like and ignore him otherwise. if i was president, i'd convene executives and stop attacking them. you can't go to saudi arabia and talk about oil production and at the same time vilify our oil companies. bring them together. how can we work together? i'd bring mayors together of cities, saying how can we invest in your cities to be better supply chain supporters as we try to wean ourselves off some of this dependency we have around the globe. these are some. things that not only optically. the republican beat the democratic in a hispanic district, and then the recall in san francisco around crime. i'd focus on acting and using this office. the president, as much as we may criticize them, the generic polls last week on fox 47-44 republican versus democrat. that's down for republicans than it was a few weeks ago. i don't know what's handgun, but something is. that does not negate the fact that you've got to act. >> you have all these democrats now who are openly saying he should not run again in 2024. >> yeah. they're openly saying it because they don't want to lose, because they know he's nothing more than an anchor around their neck. i like everything you say, harold, but here's a problem. we have a president of the united states who doesn't know how to lead, doesn't know how to do those things that you suggest that he does. look, what we've got is an administration doing nothing but siding with the president and going on national television and lying to us about the economy, about inflation. you think i want to listen to janet yellen? she's the one that said inflation was transitory. you got powell, yellen. then joe biden comes out and says, oh, no, a recession is not inevitable. i just got off the phone with larry summers. yeah. what did he tell you? that you're losing or that a recession is coming? so this administration gives absolutely no evidence of what they are going to do to prevent this recession from coming. all they do -- they're like a bunch of little girls in school who say, "just say this, tell them this, say this," and act if it's the truth. it's not the truth. the american people know that inflation is at 8.6% rate. the feds are raising the interest rate. consumers aren't as interested in purchasing. we have one-quarter of negative gdp, and we're coming to the next, quarter. what is biden's answer? he's so clueless that man that he segueways to electric vehicles. they ask him about the recession, and he talks about electric vehicles. i don't know any veteran, any senior citizen, anyone working paycheck to paycheck, which is a big piece of this country, who has $60,000 to buy an electric car. he's tone-deaf. everything he says is not accurate in terms of this economy. he can't lie his way to the next election. you just can't. american people are too smart. >> we'll talk about crime next, because the crime chaos is leaving a trail of destruction over several democrat-led cities over the weekend. we have updates. i brought in ensure max protein, with thirty grams of protein. those who tried me felt more energy in just two weeks! (sighs wearily) here i'll take that! (excited yell) woo-hoo! ensure max protein. with thirty grams of protein, one gram of sugar, and nutrients to support immune health. ubrelvy helps u fight migraine attacks. u do it all. one dose of ubrelvy, quickly stops migraine in its tracks within 2 hours. do not take with strong cyp3a4 inhibitors. most common side effects were nausea and tiredness. ask about ubrelvy, the anytime, anywhere migraine medicine. >> carnage in democrat-led cities across the country this weekend. in new york, a 21-year-old man is dead and eight others hurt after a shooting. chicago, seeing a bloodbath under mayor lori lightfoot with 38 people shot and four killed. over in d.c., a 15-year-old was murdered, and multiple other people were hurt, including a police officer, after shots rang out the a music festival celebrating juneteenth. one witness describing the heartbreaking detail about the teenager's last moments. >> he was screaming out for his mom. it's hurtful to hear that and nobody was able to help him. to see him go, it bothers me. >> get this. we're only halfway through 2022, and five major cities are already on pace to pass last year's homicide totals. harold, it's like one week it's immigration, then biden falls, and then the recession, and then murder in these cities. there's, like, 16 different problems in this country right now at the same time. what's the answer? >> well, there are probably different answers to some of all of this. i think a couple things. this virus of violence is something like we haven't seen in awhile if homicide rates are to be believed. the and i believe them. number one, more police officers. number two, bail reform. i don't always agree with your intensity of the criticism of the president, but i think you're right that we need to hear from the white house, das around the country. i'd be trying to understand best practices, trying to understand what repurposing of perhaps covid dollars that have not been spent. what we can do to allocate to these cities and other cities alike. i would point out, as we think about guns, think about some of the action that can be taken around public safety, a fox poll shows there's overwhelming support amongst gun owners and non-gun owners for a background check, a longer background check, racing the age, and even bans on some of the weapons, assault weapons, and the magazines that are used. there's something deeper here. greg touches on it often as well. we have to respect police officers more and law enforcement more. it goes both ways. police have to help and communities have to be partners in trying to do this. i'm a believer, you have to support police officers across the country. are there a few bad apples? without a doubt. there's a few bad apples everywhere. that shouldn't cause communities anywhere in this country to not be supportive of cops. i mean black and brown communities across the country. support police officers, law enforcement. we do it as a whole that perhaps some in the media suggest, and we need more as we see crime numbers skyrocketing around the country. >> judge, your thoughts? >> yeah. this is not just an increase in violent crime. it's an increase over last year's increase. we're midyear, and we've already surpassed what happened in 2021. i worked with cops for 30 years. to me they're heroes. i prosecuted a few now and then. they are heroes as far as i'm concerned. now, the issue with the das -- you know, the two cops killed on the west coast because there was a gangbanger let out with a gun, we've got to recall these das. you got to get the governors to throw them out if they don't have a recall in those states. i've given this a lot of thought. recall is too good. i've said that before. there's going to be a dereliction of duty. this is wholesale elimination of the victims and victims' rights. we've got to start looking at what we give public officials when we elect them. they get all kinds of security, benefits, a salary, etc. that's got to be taken away from them. they can't survive -- or i mean we can't survive while they have those benefits. i got to tell you about the background checks. you know, every time someone says background checks to me, and i signed pistol permits, i did all of that as a judge. i say what about the people coming through the border? we don't even know their names. what about the people in chicago? they didn't apply for pistol permits. they're all illegal guns in chicago. stop going after the legal gun owners and the people trying to buy guns and deal with the gun trafficking in this country. it's not that hard. i've done it. >> would you be more aggressive? i don't disagree with you at all. what about the ghost guns, the permitting and licensing of these, how many numbers -- i don't want to disagree with you, judge. >> i'm talking about people not doing their jobs and people dying as a result of it. >> stop going after legal gun owners. go after illegal guns. what does that mean? we've decriminalized illegal weapons. we've decriminalized street guns, meaning if you're caught with it, you're not punished. you need to actually leave alone the legal owners, same way you would leave the legalized drug user, and go after an -- and actually criminalize illegal weapons. don't decriminalize the users. that's the first thing. lee zeldon running for governor in new york, he's going to fire -- >> i've a few others he should fire. >> if you don't like anything about republicans, that one thing will save lives. you know, there's obviously an unspoken truth in the united states. there are two countries going on. until one overlaps the other one, this will keep going, especially in the media. there's a portion within a country, in areas run by democrats, largely, that commit gun crime at a larger proportion than their actual population. we know that. you can't solve it if you can't talk about it. right? i don't know -- i don't watch other tv shows. i don't know if they talk about black-on-black crime. i wonder if they're terrified of it, of being called racist, but the fact is we have to solve that problem. if we solve that problem, this country becomes incredibly safer. not to say all crime goes away if we figure out the black-on-black piece, because becausemass shooters, all of the white. education, we're not allowing kids to have a choice in what schools they go to, and when you sentence poor blacks to a crappy school system a life of crime doesn't seem like a bad alternative. i think we solve that base idea, then we're going to have -- quality education will solve so many problems, including this one. >> dana? >> the huge shooting in d.c., the 15-year-old dying, that didn't happen in a place where there's a lot of crime in d.c. it happened in a place where there's -- hillary clinton was in that neighborhood not too long ago to have dinner. today the mayor spent the day being interviewed by simone sanders at msnbc to talk about her show, not talking about the fact that this guy said, i don't think i'll ever go out in d.c. in a crowd again. how many people think the country is on the wrong track, that includes that number. if you feel so anxious that you don't want to go to the community event, you're rethinking, maybe i shouldn't go to the community annual picnic or the art festival or the music festival because you're afraid of being shot then randomly, that's a huge problem. >> the summer nightmare getting worse, but the biden administration says it has a plan to fix it. >> the summer travel season turning into hell on earth for airline passengers. since friday, nearly 20,000 flights were delayed. more than 3,000 flights canceled. the airlines blaming crappy weather and staffing issues, leaving many passengers stranded for hours. >> we were going to go to may to a national park and to some father's day stuff with our son, and canceled that. >> we didn't sleep anywhere last night. we just slept in there. >> you slept in the food court? >> yeah, we slept in the food court. >> we have two little kids. we missed two flights. we were bumped three times. yuck. >> she's happy. >> they're having fun. anyway, have no fear. the mayor is threatening to step in and start fining airlines. you know, dana, i said this -- i don't think you were here, so i'm going to repeat myself as if i never said it before. this is an industry that defies progress. you can see electronics, automobiles, food, medicine. they all move along into the future. look at vaccines, right? that acceleration, that was amazing progress, but it feels like the airlines have hit a wall. maybe it's not their fault. maybe this is the best year we're going to get in the sky. >> until elon musk fixes everything. >> yes. then we fly on drones. >> one of the things that happened during covid, pilots couldn't fly because there were no passengers. if you missed 90 days of flying, you have to be recertified, have to find the hours to get recertified. that's become a backup. they don't have enough people for air traffic control. you want people in air traffic control to be sharp, your pilots to be on top of things, have the training they need. however, i find it hard to imagine that mayor pete is going to come in, riding on a basketball, telling what to do. the taxpayers spent billion dollars of dollars to keep the airlines afloat during covid. this situation is terrible here. it's really bad in europe. it's a problem across the board. i don't think they have any plans to deal with it. i'm surprised the people we interviewed were so cheerful. >> yeah. >> dana, your flight was delayed by two minutes, look out. >> and that's private. >> yes. you know, harold, you know, the thing is, what if you just dismantled the tsa, took all those workers, you put them in other areas, like facial recognition. isn't it's time to decide that that's kind of outmoded, the tsa, the process, where every single person has to be treated like a criminal when the fact is only jesse should be? >> i flew saturday and sunday, coming back from new york yesterday with a woman behind me, and we'd gotten out of the security line. she said, this takes all the joy out of my trip, having to strip down, go through my bag, take everything out. technology is where they can use it there. it's hard to see, to dana's point, you got to have good air traffic controllers, trained pilots and so forth. what i don't understand, they take our money -- oil costs they're covering, because plane costs have gone up in price. why do you put people in these positions? i hope that mayor pete, he's raising this with them. if you don't have enough flights, don't overbook, say you only have 20 flights if you only have staff for six. no need to make people spend the night in a food court in an airport. >> well, it's father's day, so -- judge, do you see that there could be progress made? >> oh, absolutely. with pete buttigieg took two months off for paternity leave. he's serious about his job. >> got a father's day squared. >> yeah, got that too. i flew to nashville saturday morning, flew back saturday night. no problem. three weeks ago i was supposed to fly to florida, and they canceled my flight, and it was done for -- okay, it was done for, like, three days. no flights. they told me quick. >> jesse, you seem to be a man of solutions for everything. what's your solution here? >> first of all, i like being treated like a criminal, because i breeze through life, and they pat me down, this is nice, and they take jesse jr.'s formula and wipe it with explosive technology. this is what democrats do. whether it's gas prices, sly chains, airlines, they tax the industry. i don't think anybody should travel. if you live in atlanta, stay in atlanta. why are you going anywhere anyway? what's so great about somewhere else? why don't you stay where you are. there's plenty of restaurants. what are you going to do in boston? are you going to eat? are you going to see your frequents? same thing you're doing in atlanta. >> everybody gets a vr, and if you want to go to the bahamas, put the vr on, and sit in your apartment in atlanta. >> just stay home, everybody. that will solve everything. >> by the way, this solves relative travel. >> your mother-in-law, where is she? where is she exactly? >> i'm not allowed to say. >> all right. coming up, hillary clinton, the latest democrat to warn her party about being woke. >> hillary clinton becoming the latest democrat to discover that you go broke when you go woke. clinton making the case as democrats focus on activist causes, could cost them dearly in november. quote, look, the most important thing is to win the next election. the alternative is so frightening that whatever does not help you win should not be a priority. cnn's van jones thinks democrats are completely out of touch with the voters. >> if you pull out the working class, people are well educated and well off. those people talk funny. i've never met a latinx, this weird stuff that these highly educated people say. it's bizarre. nobody talks that way at the barbershop, the nail salon, the grocery store, the community center, but that's how we talk now, so that's weird. >> what's interesting is that -- i mean, he says everything that makes sense. i saw you nodding your head, greg. is he the kind of guy that can convince democrats that they have to reverse course? can they do it in time? >> i don't think if any of us said, we'd be called a bigot or something like that. i love that moment, because it felt like he wasn't talking to the cnn host. he was describing them to their face. you notice the cricket eater went totally silent. you could hear the criticism crickets intheir criticism. hillary is right, because she sees it as a political concern. she would have acted sooner, but only because she sees things through a political lens, we ought to do something because we could lose. that bothers me. you ought to do something whether you win or lose. >> and when she says, whenever whateverdoesn't help you win sht be a priority. >> i don't necessarily disagree with greg. politicians are motivated by politics. as they long as they want to do the right thing. the only thing democrats should be focused on, the economic challenges facing people around their kitchen table and concerns about safety and concern, which is crime and border security. if you focus on those things, stop trying to come up with new names or new titles for things i frankly don't understand if we do that, we will have a better chance of winning, and our politics will get better and more whole if we do that. >> jesse, isn't that what a candidate that's a trojan horse does? whatever doesn't help you it shouldn't be a priority. in other words, say what they want you to say, and when you get in, get rid of the trojan horse, and deal with the extras? >> that was in the wikileaks leaks, a public position and private position on the same issue. >> what's a bibot? what does latinx mean? do you know? >> don't look at me. >> i'm avoiding your questions to the clouds right now. >> i said the same thing on primetime last week. no one says this. >> dana, do you want to wrap it up? >> sure. the left is eating itself alive, and people like hillary and van jones are trying to tell them. latinx, a democrat congress from new york, says nobody actually uses the phrase, but people pointed it out that his twitter account had used it several times. that's why your young staff shouldn't handle your twitter account. hillary clinton is on a media tour, and no one has asked about her about giving the go-ahead for russian -- >> they got over it. they're past that. anyway, up next, major double standard after colbert's staffers get busted for breaching the capitol. >> late-night comic stephen colbert accused of a double standard when it comes to capitol security after seven producers got arrested for unlawful entry to the capitol building. the crew said to be filming a comedy segment closed to visitors and had been told to leave earlier in the day. the capitol police say they are continuing to investigate the breach. greg, is in a right thing for them to be doing? >> this is an insurrection. you do stuff like this. they were likely let in, i think they were let in by a democratic staffer, which reminds us probably that's how the experience was for 90%, 95% of the people on january 6th. they kind of wandered in like it was after dark. i don't know if you've done that. let's check out the principal's office. let's go raid the girls locker room. the media can't ever say that. but when you look at a lot of the footage, all you see are the real jerks, and you don't see people wandering around, like, what the hell is going on? i don't know. this story doesn't inflame me. >> judge? >> this was the same charge levied against the vast majority of those arrested on january 6th. a lot of those people have been in solitary confinement for months. a lot of those people have lost money trying to pay for a lawyer to answer the discovery that you need to in defending yourself. these people have to be treated the same way. you know, whether you're in high school and you go to the principal's office and all that, you know, we're not dealing with kids. we're dealing with people who figured we don't have the right to do this, we were told several times we don't have the right to do this, and yet they did it. so they should -- they should suffer the same consequences. i mean, after all, don't we have equal justice in america? >> i don't want to be cynical, but the capitol was closed on that day. >> should be the same charge. >> jesse? >> we broke the story live on "jesse watters primetime" at 7:00 on friday. unlike greg, i'm very, very worked up about this. the fact that the mugshots or surveillance video haven't been released, i don't know if there's a cover-up with the capitol police department, but if they release mugs and surveillance from the rioters on the 6th. i've done a lot of hijinks at the capitol where cameras on "the factor," and you have to know where the line is. maybe i shouldn't have. you get kicked out, you don't come back in and slam doors with your fists at 8:30 at night. i mean, that's pretty bad. you got to show respect to the institution. as you know, i'm an institutionalist. >> that's been missing from what we were talking about. they were asked to leave three times. the democratic staffer let them in. they were wandering around with anybody out around. you can't let people warned around. that democratic staffer should also be in trouble. also they were being jerks. and yelling and causing problems. you don't do that. i thought they wanted dignity and grace in the capitol. let's see it. >> they're trying to drum up publicity, because gutfeld is hammering them on "late night." >> you hammered at the essential truth. >> they're trying to about pull stunts for ratings. >> it's desperate. >> very celebrate, and we see right through them. >> are they going to get fired? >> no. they'll probably get a raise. >> "one more thing" is up next. >> dana: time now for one more thing. jesse. >> jesse: tomi lahren has a new show tomi is fearless outkick.com. cross section of politics, sports and entertainment. putting to bed the woke narrative. check that out on outkick.com. i went on dana perino's podcast everything will be okay. so, listen to that. it's very, very good. i share things that i have never shared with anybody. >> greg: we don't care. >> jesse: also father's day over the weekend. nice time. twins pushy jesse jr. on the swing in central park. he went a little higher than that tonight we have "jesse watters primetime" we sent johnny to coney island to the mermaid parade where johnny probably had the time of his life. and we asked all about politics and lifestyle and you are going to want to see that at 7:00. >> dana: i can't wait to see that. >> greg: four one more things a record. >> jesse: keep up with you. is he blind.s boy is named is he scared to go down a water slide. sister named ocean not afraid of the water. she was not going to let him miss out on the fun. she scribsd it to him and guided him to the top. he absolutely loved it and now they are just going to be at the water park all the time. >> jesse: that's beautiful. her name is ocean? >> dana: her name is ocean and he is ashton. who is next? greg? >> greg: tonight, gutfeld 11:00 p.m., what a show. caitlyn jenner, jimmy fay la. kat timpf. scooby-doo always solving mysteries air b and n did it. movie now 20 years old. once starred the great matt lalard may he rest in peace. is he alive. >> jesse: does it come with mesculin. >> jesse: have any of your producers been arrested over the weekend just colbert? >> greg: just theirs. >> dana: did you check on kat? [laughter] just following jesse's lead. >> judge jeanine: this guy wants everyone to know who top dog is. he literally pulls down the little puppy. his son cuddling with the owner and immediately sleeps with the owner. he takes his rightful place as his puppy is rolled onto the floor. look at this. he is rolling the puppy off. 3-year-old bullet father to six puppies. he is obviously a very strict displarn. dis. >> harold: it's a basketball trick creativity meets execution. a shot made by a group of kansas teens. unbelievable the boy sunk a basketball from a moving plane a thousand feet above. who was fast on top of a quad bike followed the airplane on the farm below. it tooks two days to plan. 18 attempts. didn't give up. >> dana: this is the kind of fun you have in rural areas. not getting in trouble in the city. you are figuring out a way to get on one more thing. >> harold: how many times did you sink a basket like this, dana? >> dana: i was a fabulous basketball player. >> harold: i saw you beat jesse. >> greg: begin that with it's a bird, it's a plane. >> dana: do you know what we're talking about? you are going to get he haded indicated after the show. [laughter] >> dana: judge, what are you doing tonight? >> judge jeanine: i'm going home because my sister is here with her husband. >> greg: party time. >> judge jeanine: i'm planning for the party. >> jesse: are you buying the margarita machine or what? >> judge jeanine: for you on sunday. >> jesse: i get my own machine. >> dana: that's it for us. "special report" is up next. hey, bret. >> bret: it's a bird, it's a plane -- >> dana: don't do it. >> judge jeanine: that is a good intro. >> bret: good evening, breaking tonight president biden says he is considering something that president obama once dismissed as a gimmick. a federal holiday on the gasoline tax that could save consumers about 18 cents a gallon. the president is also reiterating he does not view a recession as admissibili as in
