surprised by this but homelessness grew a staggering 10% in the city last year and 9% in la county. my office staff is afraid, and it s so sad forthe people that are homeless and it s a tragedy for the community. when i went outside, there were just like families walking around, people walking their dogs. it was completely quiet and safe and boring in a good way. and now i m afraid to go out without my pepper spray. laura: horrific. and in the big apple things are off the chart bad with city shelters busting at the seams filled with illegals. now it s so bad that earlier this month, mayor eric adams even floated the idea of housing the would-be asylumees inside homes. you don t know nothing about those people. what he s doing is not good for the city. he s trying the city. i wouldn t want some stranger, illegal or not illegal, just a stranger in general. so you re saying if this opportunity keim to you you wouldn t take it? i absolutely would not. laura: it
of surviving court scrutiny. and you have to think that the white house knew that as well. so why do you think they did it anyway? well, they did know it. joe biden even admitted it when he was talking about the amounts he was trying to forgive here. the white house doesn t control the power of the purchases, that s entirely up to congress as long as congress is willing to exercise it, less and less they seem willing to do. like you said, a calculated political play by the white house to general up support from young voters. laura: lisa to further my point listen to biden and pelosi just a few years ago. people think that the president of the united states has the power for debt forgiveness. he does not. he can postpone. he can delay, but he does no have that power. that has to be an act of congress. we need student loan forgiveness beyond the potential $10,000 your administration has proposed. what will you do to make that
and free speech grounds in favor of that web designer who refused to create a web site for a graced wedding. the ceo of the group glad didn t seem too glad. what business can now deny myself and my wife s access when we walk in. i haven t read the decision yet but from the top line analysis i think this is an open license to discriminate against lgbtq people in america. maybe she should read the whole decision before sounding off. laura the ap tried to sell this thing as a setback for gay rights the supreme court ruling but it isn t. it allows all americans, even gay ones, to speak freely and not have the government compel that speech in any way. that seems like a win for all americans to me. yeah. and if you happen to be gay and run a business and have some
of the most interesting things i saw on this, if he can win independents he can win in 2024. laura: by ten? yeah if he wins those numbers will be a blood bath. exactly. laura: the poll also revealed 64% of americans think biden is a weak leader. and i believe that trump scored waist high on that, forgive me not having the number at my fingertips but as the strength part as a leader does that dove tail into the question about his mental agility and his overall vigorousness or lack thereof. well, i think in my poll, the harris bowl, about 60% think that president biden is too old to serve another term as president. clearly, i think that the weak leadership goes to the issues of foreign policy and how strong a leader that they think he is.
because it s all a lie. it s all another cynical ploy to trap people into thinking there s some magic pot of money out there and that the government is just going to take care of all of you forever. and all of that turns into votes, the democrats hope, for themselves. now today brought us another example of the left s power play. biden s fraudulent promise to pay off student loans. now, it s a scheme with one purpose. again, buying off the votes, this time of young people. why did you give millions of borrowers false hope? you doubted your own authority here in the past. i didn t give any false hope. what i did i thought was appropriate and was able to be done and get done. i didn t give false hope but the republicans snatched away the hope they were given and it s real, real hope. laura: they couldn t have eliminated student loans through legislation or at least tried to do that, but they didn t. instead they pretendeded to do
