>> hard to pinpoint exactly why young americans believe democracy is failing or in trouble. republicans and democrats can agree it is in trouble but the exact reason democracy is failing is where we disagree a little bit. this is an alarming statistic but shows students are paying attention to what is happening in this country because democracy is failing. look what happened in the past year with restrictive covid protocols put in place by the biden administration, free-speech and freedom of speech and expression under attack in nearly every corner of society especially big tech sector and americans losing trust in the integrity of elections, these are characteristic of authoritarianism, not democracy. todd: will his numbers reprove if republicans win back congress. >> one thing is for sure. we really need to focus on the fundamentals of democracy starting on college campuses where many of these young americans get their education. the leadership institute campus reform reporting how the fundamental pillars of freedom of speech and expression have been under attack at higher education institutions for years. a few examples at the university of illinois, conservative students were tabling, they were told they couldn't speak freely. students were told they couldn't endorse glenn youngking in the gubernatorial race in virginia but these values are upheld on college campus, certainly not protected in modern society or so important that students start standing up for these fundamental pillars on campus today. todd: you saw what happened, what the left is doing with regard to free-speech is mind boggling. along those lines president biden's job approval rating plummeting with young people. april of this year 59%, down in a few months, 46%. do the young people who voted for biden and likely pushed him over the top do they have buyers remorse as well as all the adults you hear buyers remorse? >> i talked to many college students on campuses across the country about biden's policies. i recently did a video where i told students the biden administration was discussing the paying 450,$000 per illegal immigrant the cross the border, students had no idea that was being discussed and when i told them about it they were able to recognize the shortcomings in this instance and there were multiple videos like we have on the youtube channel, importance of pride and patriotism in this country. the poll shows 31% of young americans believe america is the greatest country in the world. what does that say? the students are not proud live in the country. if they don't think the country is worth fighting for democracy is worth saving and how are we going to fix the problems in this country for republicans and democrats. putting patriotism first is recognizing the country's worth fighting for is where -- neil: the segment scratching my head wondering what is being taught in colleges and universities. kids can talk and have no idea what is going on i digress. thank you so much for your insight this morning. appreciate it. todd: mass exodus a vice president's office continues. we will tell you is heading for the door now as reports of dysfunction plague the white house, joe concha next. what the he— henry?

>> what your biceps approval rating is 48% in 11 months that like being on the new york jets. i suspect this will result in sanders going back to other cable news networks about how evil trump and republicans are on a daily basis. how often during the campaign we saw simone sanders, how often do we see in 2021 since kamala harris, the vice president herself has been practically invisible save a friendly interview every. moon but when your boss is hidden there is not much of a spokesperson job to perform. resignations are all the rage on the democratic side in general so the choice appears to be for many in 2022, resign or lose. from 40 to 60 house seats. giving republicans a sizable majority. look like folks are jumping ship at this point and finding sunnier shores. todd: the harris approval rating, 20% approve, 51 disapprove. you heard it said vp is such an easy figurehead job, why is harris botching it so badly that her top people are jumping ship? >> look at the job she was given, the border crisis, us southern border, this is a vice president and paired ice to the kkk, said legal migrant crossings should be made legal. this is the person you put in charge to tackle this problem. that's not doing well. the vice president polling in the 20s. anything of the vice president is in charge of, don't seem to hear from this vice president outside a tweet here and there or a speech at nasa or with child actors but otherwise just a job that doesn't seem to be satisfying to those working for ms. harris. as you said there's disarray, a political reporter couple weeks ago. carley: there was an nbc freelance producer who was pulled over during the kyle rittenhouse trial and we have audio of that, james morrison during interaction with nbc, with police, take a listen. >> were you following a vehicle?

>> todd, that's great question. that's the hypocrisy as you said of the biden administration. i mean, americans shouldn't be -- we shouldn't be worried more about government response than the actual virus itself. but we are. i mean, for the last 10 months, joe biden hasn't allowed legal travelers to come to this country. that has just been lifted recently. and yet 1.6 million have crossed the southern border from countries that don't have vaccinations really to speak of. then, when they get here, they test them sometimes, as tony fauci said, just sometimes. most of the time they are not tested. and then they are spread all over the country on the taxpayer dime. that's not a way to fight a virus. that's actually a way to spread one. carley: there is so much going on in congress right now, having to do with, you know, anger and division on, that's always something that happens. but it's sort of next level right now. and to cap it all off. new york congresswoman alexandria ocasio-cortez posted a tweet saying people don't understand the scale, intis city and threats targeting congresswoman ilhan omar. kevin mccarthy is so desperate to be speaker that he is working with his ku klux klan caucus to look aside and allow violence targeting women of color members of congress. this cannot be ignored. what's your response to her words. >> there well ms. cortez, do we say that she using political hyperbole and pa jurorrives to fight political hyperbole and pa jurorrives. it's not it says e pluribus for many one. what ms. cortez and her squad have done repeatedly very good at playing victim and guilty of divisive rhetoric themselves. todd: congressman peter defazio becoming the 19th house democrat to retire. you are in congress, you are with these folks, you feel the vibe of this place. do these folks want to get off the sinking ship or is there something more here?
