That was President Joe Biden wednesday night calling on congress to raise taxes to pay for an astonishing 6 trillion in new Government Spending that has been proposed or passed in his first 100 days in office. The president Outline Aring the third outlining the third part we say night, the 1. 8 trillion American Families plan which includes universal prek, paid family leave and to two years of Free Community college for all americans, among other things, paid for in part by raising the top Income Tax Rate to the pre2017 level of 39. 6 and nearly doubling taxes on Capital Gains. Lets bring in texas congressman kevin brady. Hes the Top Republican on the taxwriting house ways and means committee. Welcome, good to see you. Youre one to to one of the architects of the 2017 tax reform, historic piece of legislation. Does it look to you like President Biden and the democrats are going to try to take a hatchet to that and try to chop it into bits . Yeah, they are, paul. Thanks for having me. The president has this all wrong. As you know, you know, hes been fortunate. Hes inherited a strong economic recovery, lifesaving vaccines and a reopening economy, and the numbers show that. But he is sabotaging the Jobs Recovery which is lacking, lagging with these crippling tax hikes. No doubt its going to lap on Working Families. It will drive u. S. Jobs overseas. And in the end, u. S. Will be a net economic loser. I was at the joint address. I counted just sitting there 6. 5 million u. S. Jobs lost because of the president s policies that night. And im not alone in that estimate. Other economists believe even countiing you know, the maximum impact long term from infrastructure that americas a net loser. And his claims about 3 corporations 1 corporations, frankly, theyve been debunked repeatedly. Paul well, now the president says this is not going to hit the middle class, its not going to hit Anybody Making under 400,000 a year. Whats your argument for the fact that it will . Yeah. In my view, hes dead wrong. One, all of these taxes ultimately land on Working Families. We know because when we lowered these taxes,es it was Working Families that benefited the most. Paul how so . You know, corporations dont really pay taxes. They collect them. And so that burden ultimately lands on either their workers, their customers with higher prices, those families who have invested in them for their retirement or in the communities in which they live. So there is a real price on Working Families from these taxes. Paul do you think there is any part of the 3. 4 trillion in taxes that the president s proposed that you could get behind and work and vote for . You know, every one of them has a Significant Impact on growth. For example, he has proposed about five key tax end creases on increase on investment in the united states. It really weakens, i think, u. S. Investment infrastructure, doubling Capital Gains, taxing inflation, punish eking local Real Estate Development and expanding the obamacare investment tax to more small businesses. All of that we can, investment until local communities, again, ill tell you it is families that end up paying the price because we know when we keep those taxes low, their paychecks went up, Job Opportunities increased. Their Household Income hit record highs. Paul now, theres been some talk among republicans particularly in the senate who have proposed an alternative Infrastructure Bill that perhaps you could get something bipartisan if it was financed with user fees, say ab increase in the gasoline tax or some to other kind of user fees. Any chance that your republicans on ways and means could support that . You know, i dont know. I think generally republicans believe that true infrastructure roads, bridges, ports, others, user fees make the most sense because its not others paying for that. I dont know that its large, frankly, among House Republicans certainly. I think many of us believe we a ought to take a look at the current tax code to see how we can finance infrastructure better. I know that we can redesign the prime activity bonds to focus more on infrastructure. I think there are some areas in bonding, you know, in private capital especially our country lags behind the rest of the world in attracting capital before we start raising taxes, frankly. Why dont we look at the current code and see how we can finance it. Paul all right. Theres one fascinating part of the president s revenue proposal, and that is the 700 billion bogey the president says he can reach by Unleashing Thousands of more irs agents for audits and collecting what he says are unpaid taxes. Do you think that 70 billion figure is real 700 billion figure is realistic . No, its not. There is one, everyone ought to pay their full share of taxes, doesnt matter who you are. Two, this estimate is about triple or more larger than anyone else has identified before. The information we have about missing taxes, the credible informations about 70 years old, and i think a lot of this is just wild guessing on parts. If youll just unleash ten of thousands of more irs agents On Families Farms and businesses and allow it to be more intrusive that we can close the tax gap. But the truth is enforcement alone wont do it, and President Bidens proposal effectively turns your local bank into the irs by reporting that transactions and activity in your private bank account. And i dont think the American Public will go for that. Lets identify the real, true missing payments, lets have a strategy, and in the meantime were proposing as republicans lets help the irs that can be outgunned with a new specialty irs audit Fellowship Program where we recruit, you know, topnotch, midlevel tax experts to help us do the auditing, help us win those tax cases. I think thats a smarter way. Paul all right, thank you. Appreciate it. Thanks for coming in. When we come back, joe bidens Cradle To Grave government. Our panel takes a closer look at the president s push to expand the role of the Entitlement State and whether he can get that plan through a narrowlydivided congress. ac dc Back In Black the bowls are back.

The beauty of the American Dream is that families get to define it for themselves. We should be expanding opportunities and options for all families, not throwing money at certain issues because democrats think they know best. Paul republican senator tim scott of South Carolina delivering the gop response to President Bidens address wednesday and accusing democrats of pushing ap agenda that expands the governments reach boo every aspect of family life. So with narrow majorities in both the house and senate, can the president get his latest plan through congress . Lets bring in Wall Street Journal columnist and Deputy Editor Dan Henninger, column keys kim strassel columnist kim strassel and ken peterson. Can you recall a democratic president making this kind of expansive proposals to increase the size and scope of government and the taxes to pay for it, dan . Well, paul, no, i was not around for franklin d. Roosevelts new deal but, alas, i was there for Lyndon Johnsons Great Society, and that is exactly what this reminds me of. This will be the greatest expansion of federal welfare since the creation of the Great Society. And i think this is an important point to keep in mind. The Great Society was famous for creating medicare and medicaid. Those were permanent entitlements, and what joe biden is proposing is not just more spending. I think the republicans have that a little bit wrong. Yes, it is a lot more spending. These will be permanent entitlements, guaranteed prek education, subsidized child leave, subsidized childcare and Free Community college. These are entitlements that will have to be paid for unto eternity if they are passed. There has never been anything like this in the past 55 or 60 years and the question is whether the American People are ready for more entitlements on the scale of medicare which i think most people know, paul, are running out of money. Both that and social security. Wheres the money going to come from for these new federal entitlements . Paul yeah, the key, kim, is that theyre intended to be universal which means everyone will get one. Theyre deliberately designed, i think, to get the middle class looked on more government, get the government theyre all government programs. You have a government Family Leave Program thats going to cost 200 billion even though most americans get some kind of leave through their employer. Do you think thats the main motivation here for democrats . Oh, absolutely. Because, look, if you think about it, paul, we have versions of a lot of these programs and the spending that theyre talking about, okay . We have head start which is essentially Childcare Schooling for underprivileged kids. Weve got the women, infants, Children Program that hands out money, was supposed to stop, you know, child hunger. We have welfare, we have public housing. The problem is that democrats feel they can never really get as much money for all of these as they want. Theyve got to fight for them every year. So whats the answer . You make them something that you give to everyone. You turn that away from being a poty program into, as dan said, an entitlement for everybody. You get everybody hooked on it, and that becomes de rigueur. You get buyin for more democrats in power because theyre the party that gives them to you. Paul kyle, the other thing that strikes me about this is these new programs are up linked to work unlinked to work. Usually yo had to work to get the benefit, right . These, no, most of these are handouts whether you work at home or sit at home and play fortnite. Right. And they seem unlinked to much of any economic thinking. The one that strike the me is childcare benefit. Biden says he wants to cap, for middle income family, cap Childcare Expenses at 7 of income. What a way to make millions of people completely price insensitive the, give Childcare Providers a huge incentive to raise their prices. Basically import all of the problems of health care to a completely different corner of the economy. And its not like we dont have entitlement problems. As dan mentioned, medicare is supposed to run out, the trust fund is supposed to run out of money in five years. Social security east going to follow in 2035. And, by the way, if you think the politics is heed heated now heated now, just wait. [laughter] paul thats part of the calculation. They want to fight over that. So, dan, i guess the other thing here is the tax side of the ledger, the Tax Increases, first of all, do the taxes theyre imposing, actually, would they pay for the spending that theyre proposing . No, they would not. The proposed raising of the rate on the upper 1 , the Capital Gains taxes and raising the corporate rate, paul, there is no way whatsoever that those Tax Increases can Long Term Support these new entitlements. I think the game plan is to simply get them passed and worry are about paying for them later. I will say the Tax Increases are the one vulnerability here. Some moderate democrats may not want to go along with some of these Tax Increases. But we have to understand that long term if these are real entitlements, theres only one way to pay for them, paul, and thats by raising the payroll tax. Thats the way they are supported in france and germany, and i think democrats will admit thats where they want to take it. These will eventually be middle class Tax Increases no matter what preposterous claims joe biden is making now that he would never tax the middle class. Eventually, its going to come. Paul these are valueadded taxes, anothertive. Kim, briefly, will this pass . Im very pessimistic that it will, in fact, pass, paul. One thing democrats can all agree on is spending, but also nancy pelosi and Chuck Schumer are very good at muscling their conference or into doing this, and they are making the case this is an urgent priority, theyve got a onetime shot. So far you isnt heard much havent heard much dissent at all. Paul when we come back, newlyreleased census results, the winners and losers and what it means for the battle to control congress, next. Rtial and strengthens and protects natural teeth. So, are you gonna lose another tooth . Not on my watch text chime text chime text chime sighs text chime chuckles text chime its the biggest week in television. Watchathon week is your chance to finally watch shows you missed for free. Now you get to talk about them with your friends, no matter what time it is. Say watchathon into your voice remote and watch for free paul newly released data from the 2020 census showing the political Nations Center of gravity shifting further to the south and west. California losing a seat for the first time in history along with illinois, michigan, new york, ohio, pennsylvania and West Virginia. Mondays release marks the official beginning of a onceinadecade Redistricting Fight Where State Legislatures or independent commissions scramble to redraw political maps. So, kyle, what are your big takeaways from the redistricting data . Well, a couple. One of them is that some of this is longterm trends. Since the 80s new york has lost about 0 congressional seats 10 congressional seats, texas and florida have gained them. Whats new is people moving south and west seem to get to the california border and say, no further. Republicans unilaterally control about 40 of the lines, democrats control about 20 , so its a big advantage there for the republicans. Paul do you agree with that, or kim . One of the surprises to me was you didnt get as big of a swung in some of the swing in some of the states, new york was thought to be losing two, it was only one. Yeah. And theres a big mystery in that, paul. Because when the Census Bureau did its estimates for this last year, there was expected to be much greater losses in a lot of those blue states and much greater gains in a lot of these red ones. And when the final numbers came out, they were wildly different. So weve got massachusetts, new york, illinois, new jersey, all of them lost fewer people than was expected, and a lot of states like florida and texas and a arizona gained fewer people than was expected. And so theres kind of a head scratcher there. A lot of people no evidence of political shenanigans, but something that is definitely worthy of scrutiny because it was a big surprise. Paul what about the fact that the American Population grew more slowly than it has in many recent decades . Are we beginning to see the effects of a birth dearth that people have talked about heading towards the european and japanese population models . I think thats a possibility. The birthrates slowing in the united states. Much of this data was based on 2020 the last year which was probably the huge distorting effect, paul, of pandemic. The Census Bureau had a very difficult time collecting information during the pandemic, and theyre going to release a new report in the fall which may be a little more accurate snapshot. For instance, the Wall Street Journal this week published a very interesting story in which they looked at the Postal Services permanent Change Of Address data through 2020. It showed hundreds of thousands of people moving out of boston, new york city, chicago, san francisco. I think thats the experience most people have seen in 020, and that is eventually going to show itself, be the way. The birthrate, again, is probably going through a pandemic here, and were probably going to have to wait another 510 years so see what the reality is. Paul kyle, you mentioned republicans have the edge in redistricting because they control more states with more seats. I think thats true. But if you look at new york, for example, democrats hold a 19seat edge, and now for the first time in a while democrats are going to run everything in redistrict thing. Its supposed to go to a commission. But right now theyre trying to rig the commission. And its possible they could squeeze out a come of republican seats from new york. Yeah, it definitely goes both ways. It is no accident that 0 of massachusetts congressional delegation is republican. So it definitely goes both ways. But the concentration of democratic voters in cities like new york, it does not bode well for them in these redistrictings. Paul i guess, kim, texas and florida will be the big gop advantages. Depends on how successful they are in drawing those districts. Yeah. And the other thing youve got to throw in here, paul, increasely these are all litigated. People already gearing up for that, so this could be a judicial decision in the end. Paul like Everything Else in america. Still ahead, the 6 trillion man. Will joe bidens radical agenda and its staggering cost hurt democrats in next years midterm elections . Well ask karl rove next. How great is it that we get to tell everybody how Liberty Mutual customizes your Car Insurance so you only pay for what you need . I mean it. Uhoh, sorry. Oh. What . Im an emu no, buddy only pay for what you need. Liberty, liberty, liberty, liberty. Michael This Is The Story of two brothers. David my grandfather, pinchas.

Gigi they worked hard. Simi and built new lives. Michael but rocky and pinkys families didnt see each other again. All . Until now. David more than 100 years later, ancestry helped connect us to our ancestors and each other. Infrastructure spending that shrinks our economy is not common sense. Weakening our southern borders and creating a crisis is not compassionate. The president is also abandoning principles hes held for decades. Now he says your tax dollars should fund abortions. Hes Laying Groundwork to pack the Supreme Court. This is not common ground. Paul republican senator tim scott Wednesday Night Accusing President Biden of governing from the far left in his first 100 days despite campaigning as a moderate. So will the president s pursuit of this agenda make his party more vulnerable in the midterms . Lets bring in Wall Street Journal columnist and Fox News Contributor karl rove. He served as a Senior Adviser to president george w. Bush. Karl, are you surprised at the magnitude of the president and democratic ambition here given the narrow majorities . Oh, extraordinary. Its amazing. You know, to think there would be a little bit of humility losing seats in the house and by controlling the senate only when the Vice President is sitting in the chair when they have a 5050 tie, and there isnt. Theyre full speed ahead on a very robust, very ambitious, very aggressive and very threatening agenda. Paul how do you explain the calculation here . I mean, you were in the white house when you had a 5050 senate [laughter] right . Exactly. Oh, absolutely. Paul so how do you explain their calculations . Do they just think this is, its two years or bust and weve got to go for everything . What explains it . Well, i think that very much is it. I think they think weve got the moment, and weve got to take advantage of it. Theyre looking back at barack obama and joe biden when they had 60 votes in the u. S. Senate and got Something Big done, the Affordable Care act, but comparatively little given the strength of their majorities in both the house and senate. And i think their attitudes attitude is were going to go out and get everything we possibly can, and well have a very fruitful two years, and if we do it right, were going to change the calculus of power in a way thats going to last for generations. Huge expansion of government power and structural changes to things like the pro act and h. B. 1 on elections that they could conceivably tilt both the economy and the political structure towards the democrats for a generation. Paul do you think the republicans understand here what is happening to them and to the government . I mean, theyre focused on the border, theyre focused on woke culture. But if you put into place, democrats do, entitlements of the types theyre doing on prek, on community college, on paid medical family leave, on the Childcare Tax Credit making that permanent or more or less permanent, youre talking about costs that in the beginning are small, but they explode over time. And youre going to be paying for that for decades. Yeah. Think about this, in a hundred days, weve had a covid bill of which 160 billion out of 1. 9 trillion and 160 billion at most is devoted to covid. The rest is to this permanent expansion of covid. Weve got an Infrastructure Bill which roughly 27 under the most experhapsive definition the infrastructure. 1. 8 trillion, 6. 3 trillion total, thats on top of the mandatory portion of the budget thats already passed, 3 trillion the, and the Discretionary Spending for fy21, 1. 5. So we have within the space of a hundred days were committing to spending 10 trillion in this fiscal year and on into the future. Look, they clearly focus group and polled this. The president used the phrase a once in a generation investment, leaving the impression that this is a onetime thing. And then in the next sentence he calls for making permanent the Child Tax Credit that was part of the socalled covid relief bill. To answer your question, i think republicans know whats going on. Im not sure they understand how to ap grapple with it. I do think that tim did a pretty good job of it the other night talking about the cost of it and that willingness to engage in bipartisan negotiations over these things, but the republicans clearly have a challenge in making this case. The good news for them is if they figure this out, i think its going to have huge payoff at with the elections next year because there are a group of americans who are distrustful of bigger government and a whole lot mores distrustful of a more costly government. Paul are the vulnerabilities the spending per se, or are they the fact that this is an attempt to intrude the government into all these decisions is and get the middle class hooked, addicted to more government . The answer is yes, all three. Paul all three . All three paul well, i dont hear them making any argument much, much argument right now except, well, we dont like Tax Increases, and we dont spending, yeah, theres a lot of it. But after the trump years on spending, they dont have a lot of credibility. Well, you know what . They better get accountability in a concrete way. I thought tim scott did it the other night. Were seeing some efforts, i took one minor thing happened during the the conference of the House Republicans, and that is they put seven people in charge of talking or organizing task forces to talk about these issues. Michael mccaul, who represents Travis County in which i live, Patrick Mchenry whos a very bright member from North Carolina has been put in charge of spending and taxes. But i think the Republican House members and the Republican Senate members are beginning to be awake to the fact that they are able to make a principle case, plus they need to be able to talk about the republican agenda and whats their vision of what conservative principles mean and contrast the two with what democrats are attempting to do with this large expansion of government. Youre night, theyre trying to get the middle class hooked on the notion of all this stuff can be paid for people who are not you and in a way that doesnt affect the future quality of our economy and the fate of our country. A paul all right, karl, good to see you. Still ahead, after nearly a year of violent protests, authorities in portland are calling for a crackdown. A closer look at the growing crisis in policing across america, next. Paul after almost a year of rioting, violent protests, authorities in portland appear to have had enough. Mayor ted wheeler calling for higher bail and trougher Towinger Pretile restrictions for rioters. All this as Police Departments across america are battling a wave of departures. With the nypd seeing more than 5300 officers retire or quit in 2020, a 75 increase in the previous year. Were back with Dan Henninger and jillian melchior. Jillian, youve been following portland for a while. Its quite a change for ted wheeler who last summer was saying come on, you know, this is just people expressing their constitutional duty of attacking these federal buildings. Yeah. This goes back even further to 2015 when he was elected. Youve seen a tolerance for farleft and farright groups clashing in the streets. This is something thats been going on for years, and i think you saw hard core riots talk off last summer, you know, 100 days of rioting at one point consecutive. And youal saw extraordinary damage, about 2. 3 million to Government Buildings paul right, but, jillian, he didnt care about this or seem to last summer. What explains the Switcher Radionow . I think its become intolerable. Portland businesses downtown, about 62 of those say they feel like downtown is no longer safe. Thats up from 5 in 2016 when he was elected. Youve got a 60 increase in homicides in 2020 compared to the year before. So i think reality has finally caught up to him. Unfortunately, many of his policies created the situation. Paul now, how broadbased is this Change Of Heart or this political backlash against rising crime cha weve seen in so many cities . I think its fairly widespread. You know, people want peaceful protests, but they dont want their cities to become unlivable, walk down the streets in broad daylight and feel like they could be attacked. I think there is some political pressure here. Unfortunately, in portland and in many other cities youve seen huge slashes to police funding, youve seen a wave of retirements, restrictions on less than lethal forces police can use against rioters. Just giving bad act tours the sense that they can do this with impunity. And unfortunately, thats been true for a lot of the last year. Paul you know, dan, when we saw this in the 60s and 70ss, and there was a political backlash. Its going to require that same kind of of thing. Are we seeing that now, do you think . The beginnings of it . I think we are seeing the beginnings of it, and a place to watch is, in fact, new york city which went through this in the bad old days of the 90s and 80s. Theres going to to be a democratic mayoral primary on june 22nd, paul, which effectively decides who becomes the next mayor of new york. Two of the candidates are running explicitly on getting a handle on new yorks extraordinary spike in shootings and homicides, that would be eric items, the borough adams and ray mcguire, a black businessman. Both running on an anticrime platform. If new york voters begin to take it seriously and vote for either one of those candidates, paul, you could see a turn around across the rest of the country because new york is really in some ways ground zero for this problem right now. Paul and, jillian, we saw a little bit of the backlash against one of these progressive prosecutors in philadelphia as well. Explain that one briefly. Yeah. So larry prosecutor in philadelphia,. [inaudible] if you go to his web site, it has specifics about how prosecutions have gone down on his watch. And it was really interesting because the democratic the City Democratic Party ended up deciding this year theyre not going to issue anen endorsement, and thats very unusual for an incumbent candidate. But the pressure theyre getting particularly from poor and minority neighborhoods that crime is out of control and theyre angry about it. Paul yeah. Thats a fascinating development. Up next, gun rights make a return to the Supreme Court as the justices agree to take up their first major Second Amendment case in more than a decade. So why now . Our panel is back after the break. Veggies. On freshly baked bread so, lets get out there and get those footlongs. Now at subway®, Buy One Footlong in the app, and get one 50 off. Subway®. Eat fresh.

End cyber attacks. From endpoints to everywhere. Paul the Supreme Court this week setting the stage for its First Major Gun Rights Decision in more than a decade. Justices monday said they will consider the scope of the Second Amendment next term in a case concerning a new york law that imposes strict limits on individuals carrying a concealed handgun outside the home. Were back with kim strassel and kyle peterson. Kim, how significant is it that the court, at long last, is taking up this case . Its enormous because we have had cricket, paul, since basically well, in 2008 we got that Landmark Heller Ruling that did say that the Second Amendment meant that individuals had a right to bear firearms. Two years later we got another decision applying that to the states. But nothing since then. And as a result, weve had lower courts that have said, well, you know, we still get to define what it means to carry firearms, and the 9th Circuit In Particular has said, well, you dont have the right to openly car ily, theyve also said you dont have the right to concealed carry, to theyve hollowed out that heller ruling, and the Supreme Court has sat silently all these years, and thats finally changing. Paul why do you think the courts been so silent . Well, i think chief Justice John Roberts has been very wary in many r areas of taking on divisive cases. Youve had some justices like Clarence Thomas really beginning to scold the court for its absenteeism, and i think one big change too is amy coney barrett. You may well have finally had five justices willing to take on tough issues. Paul kyle, i guess brett kavanaugh, amy coney barrett, both could theyre really unknown on where theyll come out on gun rights, arent they . Or are there some hints in the their other decisions . Yeah, well, judge barrett, when she was a Circuit Court judge, wrote an opinion on the Second Amendment reading it looking at it in terms of what founding era legislatures did. So i think that suggests that she will be on the side of Second Amendment advocates here. But just to add a little more context, the question here is essentially whether the Second Amendment applies outside your front door. And the problems or the questions of how much a state can burden that right, i think, for later but its not as if andrew cuomo is saying this is going to make new york like the o. K. Corral. I dont think thats quite accurate. Paul certainly, the new york law would limit it to basically the front door. You can have a gun at home, and if theres an invader, you have a right to defend yourself, but you cant carry that outside the home. This would be adding to, if they overturned that new york law, would expand the practical meaning of the Second Amendment. Yeah, exactly. Though to cuomos complaint about the o. K. Corral, what would happen in the if the Second Amendment applies outside your front door, states like new york and california will say well give you a concealedcarry permit, but you have to take a two week class every year and pay a 2,000 fee, and then there are going to be future cases about how much states can burden that right, that Second Amendment right. Paul all right. Well, well do those case by case, i guess. Kim, lets talk about this donor case the Supreme Court heard this past week, pretty significant. The right and the left basically objecting to a California Law that says that nonprofits have to turn over their Donor Information. Why is this significant . This is really significant because this is testing a prior Supreme Court case that dealt with the naacp during the civil rights era, and it was a question of what they came down to with this decision was noting that there is a First Amendment right to essentially, to engage in political activity without the government snooping on you because of the threat of intimidation. And this is what these nonprofits on both the right and the left are arguing over a California Law that required them to turn over a bunch of their Donor Information to the state. And they, while the state has said this is, keeps the secret, theres no guarantee that is actually the case. And so were going to see if the Supreme Court is willing to reaffirm or even double down on that prior ruling about the right to engage in political activity without it all being public. Paul right. And this would not, this would really be a big blow to Sheldon Whitehouse and Chuck Schumers agenda to attempt to force more disclosure on political donors. All right, we have to take one more break. When we come back, hits and misses of the week. Used most by dermatologists . Its neutrogena® rapid wrinkle repair® smooths the look of fine lines in 1week, Deep Wrinkles in 4.

Now printed missus of the week. Kim first you. Paul the cdcs overly restrictive guidance this week thing that you can take your masks off outside but only under certain very confusing circumstances. No Public Health officials everywhere complaining of our people are not getting vaccinated one of the greatest of going and getting that done is that thought that you would get to return to normality. Pure people are going to do it if they believe the cdc and other Public Health officials are just going to micromanage their every circumstance. So they need to get ahead of the ball here.
