administration to end title 42 expulsions of asylum seekers next month but the administration has extended the mask mandate for travelers on planes, trains and buses. the white house s new covid-19 response coordinator explains why federal health officials are holding public transportation to a higher standard. we know when you are sitting on an airplane the person sitting next to you coughing and sneezing you can t get up and move. we ve always wanted to be extra careful on public transportation, airlines, and that i think is part of what is motivating the cdc scientists thesy let s gate sense of what is going on. the travel mask mandate has been extended through may 3 while the cdc tries to get a better idea of how the omicron sub variant ba-2 is going to be impacting the healthcare system and in particular affecting hospital capacity. julie.
one for us to find a balance where cops have the right training and we re actually keeping hardened and violent criminals behind bars and not letting them out. the other thing is we ve elected prosecutors in these cities that run on the idea we don t lock up hardened criminals and it s a deadly policy. julie: if we lock them out we let them out. the problem is bail reform laws that are a mess. richard, what do you make of joy reed s comments that if we add police to the mta system. mta crime is up 68% as i mentioned. by adding more police black and brown people will suffer, considering after the brooklyn shooting that just occurred where the suspect is an african-american. do you believe by adding more police presence to the subways to prevent another brooklyn shooting will be a disadvantage to the minority community? thanks for having me and
this is terrible policy. i don t think joe biden or vice president harris has any idea how bad it is. because of joe biden s policies on the border every staift is a border state. every state is being flooded with illegals bringing along with it fentanyl, human trafficking and increased crime. julie: more democrats are joining the fight against ending title 42 including arizona senator kyrsten sinema. she says the administration s ex tense of the public transit mask mandate proves the need to delay lifting title 42. and now 21 states are suing to stop the title 42 rollback calling it a self-inflicted calamity that includes, of course, the state of arizona. let s bring in the sheriff and the state s attorney general mark brnovich. thank you for joining us from the border in arizona. mark, i will start with you first. u.s. customs and border protection predicts that agents
