angeles. and new day continues and new day continues right now. captions by vitac www.vitac.com good morning to viewers here in the u.s. and around the worldment of it s friday, july 15th and i m brianna keilar with john berman this morning. the secret service denies doing anything malicious after a government watchdog report claimed the agency erased text messages from january 5th and january 6th and that it did so after oversight investigators had requested them. the secret service claims any lost data was due to a planned tech migration and that the texts investigators wanted were not among those that disappeared. it s the latest example, though, of the agency assigned to protect the president coming under scrutiny for its actions on january 6th. joining me now is donald trump s former acting white house chief of staff, mick mulvaney. he later served as special envoy to northern ireland but resigned from the post following the capitol attack. thank you so
crown prince. respect to the murder of khashoggi, raised at the top of the meeting making it clear what i thought at the time and what i think of it now. i said very straightforwardly, for an american president to be silent on an issue of human race is inconsistent with who we are and who i am. basically said that he was not personally responsible for it. i indicated that i thought he was. yes. you are getting under fire for your fist bump with the crown prince. i just want to give you a chance to respond to that. but how can you be sure that another incident or murder like khashoggi will not happen again? god love you, what a silly question, how can i be sure of any of that? it s been the president is under enormous pressure to take down gas prices with the trip and democrats in his own party getting tired of his inflation spin. we have a responsibility in the leadership to be honest with people, to not try to spin them. and then we have a responsibility to charge
heinrich. griff: i m griff jenkins, good to be back. rich edson is in pennsylvania. and let s go to chester, pennsylvania, hey, alex. hey, yes, this has been a plot twist in pennsylvania. big names and big money at no point had a republican candidate to be the front runner, there s dr. oz and kathy barnett made this a three-way tie. now i m surging. that s their word. [applause] no one thought it. no one thought it. they were all focused on the two men in the race and no one thought it. kathy barnett is at a breakfast this morning and operating on a shoe-string budget. the celebrity mehmet oz held a rally and said this about barnett. we know little about her pass, they cannot win in november. every time kathy tries to answer a question leads to more questions which is why she s not answering more questions. and this is the financial treasure official, mccormick says there s no room on onto job training. any of these into this role on day one, i know what to do,
president biden said his policies are not to blame. i think our policies help not hurt. think about what they say the vast majority of the of the economists think this is going to be a really tough problem to solve but it is not because of spending. we brought down the deficit by. spring and kevin he s former chairman of the council of economic advisers under president trump and distinguished visiting fellow at the hoover institution. so kevin, welcome. the scout but was this is going to be the peak of inflation, how do you see it? yes, you and i ve talked about this before. one of the things i like to do is look at the more recent numbers instead of the change over the whole last year. because at the beginning of the year inflation was not so bad. the average, last three months of consumer price inflation and then annualize it right now is going up at 10% at an annual rate which is about what you and i i promised on your show a few months ago was going to hit. if you l
