that are laid out here. not at all. because i think on the one hand a lot of it is not defensible. they all know just like we do that these were lies. but the republican base actually does believe a lot of the stuff. you even heard it from trump s lawyer tonight, john lauro, sugar coating it and saying well trump had doubts about whether the state legislatures had the authority to do that. the indictment talks about trump literally making things up out of full cloth, talking about dead voters in georgia, and being explicitly told that that was not true. his own campaign staff saying that this was all made up stuff. the other things that striking to me about this indictment and the other thing that republicans who are running for president don t want to acknowledge is that if any of the one of these things had succeeded, we would be having an entirely different conversation. i think the trump defense will hinge on this idea that it was just words and that the words
foolish policies and lying about the data. that s what bidenomics is. they go to the gas station, go to the grocery store, look at their checkpoints, notice a family with two earners making $1 hundred thousand you are down $16,000 in terms of spending power. no fancy language and sugar coating is going to help the american people. gillian: steve hilton, this 230,000 number, which is what americans polled say they think they need in order to feel financially secure every year. that number isn t just coming from manhattan. this is an average across the country, rural and urban areas. that s a lot of money. it s a lot of money and that is the direct consequence of the economic policies that they now are kind of wanting to claim credit for unbelievably. i think this idea of bidenomics
i can t be involved in any level of sugar coating. what i saw, it was mayhem. with decent weather in the forecast, there are already posts going around on social media about plans for another potential downtown takeover on saturday. and after being overwhelmed last weekend, chicago police say they plan to have more officers at any large gathering going forward. bret? bret: garrett tenney live in chicago. garrett, thank you. a new york police officer was hit in the head with a bottle by a man who approached her on the street monday. 45-year-old jose garcia charged with assault, weapons possession and other crimes. the new york post reports that garcia has been arrested 11 11 times in in the past that comes after alvin bragg called new york the safest big city in america. that of course after republicans blamed his progressive policies for contributing to violent crime holding a hearing there. the mayor of los angeles wants to add several hundred police
test to see what do we do. so they re testing us. absolutely. john great to see you. thank you. are more people leaving california for texas for leaving texas for california? we lost about 180,000 folks. how do you explain that because of visa policies in the trump administration? we have had a lot of people moving from california into our state and growth is our biggest issue right now so we would love to see california cutting taxes and regulations. well, as many californians have fled the golden state utah governor cox went them to stay put and stop draining his state of valuable resources. sound like california stay home sign should be on the entrance to utah. exactly he s not sugar coating anything. plea don t come the message from governor of utah to california residents thinking of moving
day-to-day. president biden: how many people do you have coming through? i m trying to get a sense of the flow. the average. on average 300 to 400. harris: the president pressured him. the man told him 1,000 people a day and then the president did a reask and cleared his throat and i don t know, is that the kind of pressure it takes to get somebody to change their number? it seems like a sugar coating given we re hearing from border patrol the actual numbers. in the el paso sector alone 168,000 people just this fiscal year, only 100 days old. up more than 200% from just last year when we saw record breaking numbers. we mentioned texas governor greg abbott in focus. let s go to jacque heinrich live in mexico city where the president is set to meet with other northern american leaders
