larry: forest peace,wellly mays. you'll see the greatest catch in history, then the greatest throw in history. he was the greatest baseball player in history. i actually saw him once or twice at the polar grounds when i was a young lad. willie, mays, rest in peace. i'll turn it over to liz macdonald, another great.

elizabeth: oh, you're so great. you know, i loved willie mays. i think he was second behind babe ruth on the most all-time lists ever, and his first home run, he smacked it right out of the polo grounds. loved him. and you're terrific, larry. let's get right at it. new video coming in, let's get to former utah congressman jason chaffetz. welcome to "the evening edit." jason, thanks for joining us. more unedited footage of president biden looking more infirm and enfeebled, having difficulty getting into his suv there. this is tough to see is. "usa today" is reporting age is on ballot. what do you make of this news, jason, that the biden white house is going to do a full-court blitz to attack the media media a week before the debate to stop covering stuff like this? how is this going to play with the voters? so instead of offering an honest answer or rebuttal, slam the reporters, slam the journalists? >> yeah. they're trying to tell the american people that what

they're seeing is just not true. the president takes the short steps on air force one. they now surround him, as you're seeing there on the video, when he goes to marine one. he has trouble just basically walking at this point. and it's all a cover, it's a cover-up. and it's consistent, what the white house has done on this issue. there was a reason why the u.s. attorney investigating and looking at the documents case as it related to joe biden came back and said when we interviewed him, there was -- he was unable to answer basic questions, and there's a reason why the the white house is fighting so hard not to see the video of this. so they're going to -- they're desperate to do this. it's not about age, it's the lack of cognitive capability in the most difficult job on the planet. elizabeth: yeah. it would really hurt, sandbag a 45-year-old is so tough. this is tough to see, the president, again, new footage of him having difficulty getting into this suv.

the white house is calling this stuff cheap fakes. we got this report from nbc, democrats are pressuring the white house to probe election disinformation. but that fbi and homeland security officials will not weigh in now because they don't want to appear to tilt the election in favor of biden. >> yeah, how convenient is that? these aren't fakes. these are unedited videos that they just don't want out because they're very unflattering. they have changed the way they operate there at the white house because the president is unable to move on his own in a consistent way. he freezes up on stage. even the prime minister, when he was overseas, had to come over, she walked all the way across to go help him because he started talking to some other people in the middle of an event when he was overseas. you have barack obama who grabs him by the wrist. i mean, that's just not common if behavior. but it is, unfortunately, sad. and what's happening -- watch

how the prime minister comes all the way across to get him. the question should be for the prime minister, why was she so concerned about where joe biden was going and what he was doing? elizabeth: you know, the foreign press has covered this. the u.k., italy, france, india, japan, china, australia. they have been covering what their diplomats are saying. watch the white house attacking the coverage a saying that the president was fine, he was briefly chatting with a skydiver who had landed near that group. this is about a grown man being led by the hand. watch the president here. listen to this. >> there is so much misinformation, disinformation as we've been talking about. you talked about a the video of the president wandering, and it's not true, right? the president wasn't wandering, he was talking to a parachuter that was right in front of him. >> you know -- [inaudible] i'll lead an effective strategy to the mobilize -- [inaudible] pressure. after assign the pac act into

law, i handed the pen that i signed it with -- [inaudible] the most person responsible for the legislation are. we'll teach donald trump a valuable lesson, don't mess with the men of america unless you want to to get if benefit. [cheers and applause] russia's frozen assets in europe and other places outside of, outside of russia. they're banning books about black experiences. thanks to all the members of congress and homeland security secretary -- [inaudible] i'm not sure i can introduce you all the way. instead of trying to stop our ban on ghost gun kits that contain -- commit crimes, they're working like hell to stop it. elizabeth: okay. "the washington post" reporting biden's age a problem is a problem for the democrats. what do you think of this, jason? we're also going to get into a debate later in the show about a "axios" reporting that top democrats' senior aides are

doubtful the president can win re-election on bind's strategy of going after trump -- biden's strategy of going after trump's character, over the capitol rye wrotes and not economic policies. take it away, jason. >> well, they've been trying to go after donald trump for eight years, and it doesn't really work. at this point it's kind of a tired, old trope. look, if joe biden wanted to put a rest to this, why doesn't he do an unfettered press conference? he is yet to do a solo press conference this calendar year. why not do that? why not sit down with a serious reporter and try to answer bake questions? -- basic questions. thank goodness, we have the debate next week. that'll tell a lot. but on his day-to-day, his cognitive capabilities, this isn't spin, this is video, and the american people can see it and make a decision all by themselves. elizabeth: yeah. we're just a week away from the debate. jason chaffetz, good to see you. joining us now, former state department spokesperson morgan ortagus. good to see you, thanks for

joining us. what do you make of this? president biden yesterday at the white house corrected himself that husband executive action -- his executive action putting illegal aliens' spouses had, quote, passed congress? he then corrected that. there's no court precedent cited here, no law, no court cases for doing this end run around congress. texas governor greg abbott says this is illegal, unconstitutional, the courts are going to strike it down just as they struck down obama's actions. where do you come down on this? >> well, i agree with governor abbott. i think he's right. i also think, you know, there's so many crass political moves that are being made in an election year. first of all, let's step back and say how did we get here. we got here because three and a half years ago president biden and his team bragged that they were going to get rid of basically all of the trump era policies to control our southern border where president trump had largely stemmed the flow of illegal migration, built a

border wall and did other things. listen, worked with mexico, worked with the northern triangle countries with things like asylum cooperation agreements in order to stop it. we took the threat of an undefended and open border quite seriously. the biden administration has never taken that threat seriously. it's only after you see literal criminals and murderers from other countries coming into this country and murdering americans. we saw, god forbid, the sexual assault of the 13-year-old in the new york city park. you know, you start to hear more and more of these stories, a mother of five being murder, a nursing student being murdered all because of joe biden's, again, undefend fend if -- undefended and open southern border. you have millions of people pouring into this country. suddenly, in an election year this becomes a top three polling concern in a general election. liz, that never happens, right? normally, immigration is certainly something that is debated heavily in the republican primary, it's rarely a general election issue. it only became a general

election issue because suddenly everybody woke up and realized 10 million people coming into this country illegally, guess what? it could actually have ramifications. elizabeth: morgan, let's get your reaction to msnbc's joy reid and pramila jayapal claiming that the coverage of the rape, what do you make of this? the coverage of the rape and sexual assault of a 13-year-old child in new york city is, quote, fear mongering when "the new york times," the bbc, abc news, cbs and, you know, and more have been covering it? so it's fear mongering? here's the issue, morgan. you've talked a lot about this. the u.s. is pro-immigration. it's not about being anti-immigration. >> of course not. elizabeth: this is a u.s. crime problem. it is not a blue or red issue. the problem is the biden white house refuses to acknowledge literally letting in more than 10 million including gotaways without being vetted. we're talking killers, murderers, rapists. crime is slamming u.s. minority and immigrant communities in new

york, l.a., detroit and chicago. >> you know, it doesn't surprise me that these women took the position that to you just talked about, that they would minimize the rape of a teenaged girl, a girl who's probably even barely hit puberty. they also a minimized the rape and the torture of jewish women, of israeli women in israel. so it doesn't surprise me that they have done this because they also don't believe all women, they also minimize the importance of israeli and jewish women from october 7th and their rapes. so does it surprise me? if no, it doesn't. but it should horrify, i think, women around this country because of the per if niches if behavior of -- pernicious behavior of some of these criminals entering this country that a appears to be specifically targeting women. that's what's incredibly scary. listen, i was just at the southern border last month. i was in yuma, arizona, and i was there about 2:00 in the morning, liz, at the border. the first three or four guys,

men in line, were young chinese men. we asked them where they were from. the next three guys were from syria, young men spoke to us in perfect english. they had all been dropped off by the cartels. there were women and children in the line as a well, but at the beginning of the line the first people that we encountered were not economic migrants from latin america, they were from china -- elizabeth: yes. and that's in violation of the law. >> yes. elizabeth: u.s. law doesn't allow for economic migrants. >> right. elizabeth: and that's ooh -- what the problem is because women and children who were persecuted under asylum laws get pushed to the back of the line as our immigration courts are clogged. that's the problem with biden's border collapse. we got, you know, house republicans and other top republicans say -- do you agree that this is a ploy to try to get out the hispanic vote? vox is reporting polling shows independent and moderate voters including latino voters are existence what with biden did? they are for deportations,

they're for a border wall, they support migrants coming here legally, even the immigrants who did that legally. they waited in line and they a did it the right way. what biden's doing is unconstitutional and unfair, is what we're hearing. >> and i certainly agree with that as a well with. we all want legal immigration. listen, i want the best and the brightest to come to america, be educated here and stay here and work and become americans. and let's are keep that talent in the united states. but that is a very different conversation than the one that we're having at the southern border. and, of course, liz, what is very concerning to me is that we are now catching isis-k affiliates crossing this border illegally. the fbi -- i've been screaming about this all a year, the fbi director has testified multiple times in front of congress saying there are blinking and flashing red lights. we are at risk for another 9/11 -- elizabeth: that's so scary are. morgan ortagus, thanks for joining us. still ahead, congressman jeff van drew, i lieutenant colonel james carafano, former

u.s. attorney brett tolman, former u.s. treasury official michael faulkender, ford o'connell and fox news contributor delaware roy moring dock. we've got a hot hour for you. the news on this story, former president trump may soon find out about a date for the 2020 case. plus, a fiery hearing about to be the held by u.s. district court judge aileen cannon on whether jack smith's, the special counsel's office, is illegal and unconstitutional. and more on the biden white house angrily canceling a meeting with israeli prime minister netanyahu. we have a new report we're going to take it on, senior democrats and biden aides are increasingly doubtful biden can win back the white house by betting that voters care more about their feelings about trump and not economic policies. that's a report from "axios." and we're going to speak with congressman jeff van drew from house judiciary about judiciary chair jim jordan threatening to

subpoena new york a.g. letitia james for documents that jordan thinks will show biden's connections to the new york trump trial. plus, trump tells supporters in wisconsin he will toss out bidenomics and replace it with maganomics on day one if he gets reelected. and look at this, biden is spending literally tens of billions of dollars of your taxpayer money including in the swing states to try to stay in power. that's what a this report shows. we're going to take it on on "the evening edit "tonight. we've got a jam-packed show. we'll be right back, stay right there. ♪ there are many ways to do things.

amount of tax that a you're paying right now. somehow, you know, all my life i watched politicians, and they always said i'm going to reduce your tax. this is the only group i've ever seen, we're going to raise your taxes by four times, oh, let's vote for them. there's something crazy going on. >> reporter: former president trump said he will eliminate taxes on tips. he wants to unleash american energy and roll back regulations that handy can cap businesses. on the other hand, president biden says he will raise taxes on the wealthy and wants corporations to pay more in taxes. the president hopes more incentives ask and regulations will push his clean energy agenda in a second term. he also started a path away for people under daca a to stay in this country if they have a parent who's married to a u.s. citizen and has been in this country for more than ten years. >> we have to acknowledge that the patience and the goodwill of the american people is being tested by their fears at the border. they don't understand a lot of it. these are the fears my predecessor's trying to play on. >> reporter: the more than 7 million people

who have crossed the southern border illegally under president biden should be deported and returned to this country legally, back to you, liz. elizabeth: thank you so much. let's welcome former u.s. treasury official mike faulkender. it's good to see you. you know, the trump team is hammering at biden that inflation was at 1.4%, the southern border was secure, the average 30-year mortgage rate was about a third of what it is now, 2.7, and the world was at a peace. but the biden team is saying americans were jobless, locked down, they're blaming trump for the pandemic lockdowns. wasn't it dr. fauci who advised it and local elected officials, governors and teachers' unions, followed through on that and joe biden kept them going? >> that's absolutely right, liz. let's remember, i was an assistant secretary of the treasury during the pandemic. i was mt. treasury while we were helping the american people with the temporary lockdowns that app nebraska fauci recommended -- anthony

fauci but, as you said, were implemented by local firms. the president of the united states does not order lockdowns of local establishments. that's done by states and mayors. and so you'll remember back to the -- remember, democrats in washington were vacationing down in florida because florida was open during the pandemic in ways that new york and california were not. these were set by local officials. the role of the federal government was to aa cyst economically during that time, and that's why by the time joe biden took office a, most of the jobs had been recovered, economic output was largely back to the where it was prior to pandemic, is and we had still low inflation. the inflation that we saw took off after the bidens implemented what they called the american rescue plan and shoved trillions extra into the economy while simultaneously shutting down domestic energy and things like the keystone pipeline. elizabeth: yeah. >> it's absolutely obscene when you start hearing them say that it was as a result of what they inherited from the trump administration. no. it was a result of the things they implemented

on day one, month one of their administration. elizabeth: you know, i think larry summers, steve rattner and jason furman have said -- steve rattner said that was the original sin, you know, the american rescue plan. the debate is just a week away. new reports biden is spending literally tens of millions of dollars in places like the swing states in order to stay in power on things like electric car charging stations that have not been built with. something like only seven or eight have been built, spending billions on hooking up rural households to the internet. reportedly, not one home has been connected. let's get your reaction to vice president harris saying you've just got to be patient, and you're going to hear from the white house press secretary saying housing prices will not be coming down. and then you're going to hear from a caller into charlamagne tha god's podcast. watch this. >> we see what's going on. you know, you can tell us it's not happening and this is not happening, but we see it. i mean, we're actually out here living it. i'm seeing people have to put their groceries back at the cash

register, you know? people paying extra energy bills. so quit peeing on my leg and telling me it's raining. you've got -- [inaudible] and one more thing. you know why nobody don't like trump? >> why? >> that man was the only president in the past 50 years that didn't get us in no wars s and wars speak money. >> the economy is one of the voters' top concerns. polls show inflation is slowing. why do you think though recent polling numbers that a potentially the policies maybe aren't resonating with some of the base or some of the americans here in the united states? >> listen, first of all, i think that we know that it takes time for people to feel the policies. >> reporter: -- saying eventually it will come down and what's the the time frame? >> no. elizabeth: price are not going to come down. they've been at it for almost four years. >> yeah, liz.

the american people felt the policies almost immediately as a result of the things they were doing. i don't know where the vice president comes from that she thinks we're still living under the economic outcomes from the a pandemic. the pandemic has been over for a while. the impact of the biden administration's top-down, government-centric approach is exactly what's constrain thing the supply of goods. they're throwing bunches of money into the economy whether it's you probably saw the cbo came out with their latest forecast of a budge deficit for this year. what's the single largest cause of the increase? because of student loan forgiveness by this biden administration. it's an approach of if we buy enough votes, we can get another term as a opposed to the affordability agenda of president trump trying to create greater opportunity for all americans so that we can bring down prices, so that we can allow the private sector to unleash all of its potential. because the way that you serve the american people is not a top-down government approach, it's by letting

communities and small businesses thrive with minimal amounts of government intervention. it's just a fundamentally stark contrast that that's in front of the american people when it comes to economic policy. elizabeth: mike fall kenneledder, thank you so much for joining us. still ahead, retired lieutenant colonel james carafano. biden's foreign policy struggles, new reports the biden white house angrily canceled a meeting with prime minister benjamin netanyahu. plus, we have brett tolman, former president trump may soon find out about the date for his 2020 election trial. and also this, u.s. district court judge aileen cannon set to hold a fiery hearing on whether special counsel jack smith's office is illegal and unconstitutional. all of this coming up on "the evening edit." we'll be right back. stay right there. ♪ ♪

presidential immunity from from if these court cases filed by special counsel jack smith. fox news justice correspondent david spunt live in d.c. with more. great to see you. >> reporter: good to see you too, liz. the longer this takes the supreme court to actually make a public decision, the further this pushes the former president's trial back. but as just about everything, there are caveats. the first is does this even go to trial? the former president charged with trying to overturn the 2020 election results, was supposed to go to trial beginning in early march of this year. that deadline are came and passed. the case itself has essentially been on ice since late december once an appeal was announced in the case. judge tonya chutkan, the federal judge in d.c. who's overseeing the case, has stopped all activity at least publicly on the docket until the supreme court issues results. the first appeal earlier this year was appealed before the d.c. circuit court. they ruled that donald trump does not have absolute immunity to avoid charges. but the supreme court decided to take over and weigh in on the

very argument even though the d.c. circuit ruled unanimously that trump does not have full immunity from prosecution. of course, we can't speculate what the court was doing. the case was argued before the supreme court at the end of april. typically, they have until the end of june which means about another week. they could go into early july to release this opinion. depending on what hay do, it could be good or bad for special counsel jack smith, this man, who indicted the former president last year. if the supreme court holds that donald trump enjoys broad immunity, expect the case to never happen. if the supreme court rules that he has no immunity, expect the case to happen perhaps later this summer, depends on when judge chutkan wants to set those deadlines. if it's a complicated ruling that sends aspects a back to lower courts, that may delay things as a well. the bottom line, we don't know until we know, and there's an unspoken rule at the doj, liz, we've reported on and that's typically related to not indicting people close to an election. i've spoken to many people on

both sides of the aisle that are lawyers, and they a say technically judge chutkan can do what she wants to do when it comes to setting a trial date. so it's possible there could be a trial, you know, edge of august a or september, you know -- end of august or september, just a couple months before the election. but, of course, we don't know anything until we get this opinion, and it could happen as a soon as a tomorrow. elizabeth: that's a good point about not bringing a case within 90 days of an election. david spunt, thank you so much for your reporting. >> reporter: thank you. elizabeth: let's turn now to brett tolman. the supreme court's conservatives made clear they didn't agree with the appeals court approach here. what do you think? >> yeah, i think there's a very strong reason for them to take this case. they took the case. i was not surprised by that. i think that it will be one in which it's very likely that they send it back with because of how it was handled. i don't want anticipate that it's going -- i don't anticipate that it's going to be a broad

grant of immunity although if the court is asked directly that question and they rule on it, i do think that they are concerned about taking immunity away from a sitting president. elizabeth: okay. let's move -- >> so i think all those factors, you know, are favorable for trump. elizabeth: where do you come down on this development, that u.s. district court judge aileen cannon is about to hear arguments about whether jack smith's entire office is illegal and unconstitutional? jack smith is now more powerful than the roughly eight dozen u.s. attorneys. what do you think? >> yeah. i will tell you i thought there were two motions that were going to be very, very troublesome for doj. first if was -- first was a motion for selective prosecution. i think at some point she will rule on that. but right now this -- and congress has done a good job, representative massey and others have highlighted that jack smith may be outside of the grant of statutory authorities that is currently the special prosecutol

authority. and i, you know, liz, i don't know how you read that in its plain language and not find that it's been violated with the appointment of jack smith who's -- elizabeth: yeah. he wasn't appointed. he's a private citizen. >> that's right. elizabeth: the senate never confirmed him. that's what a.g.s mukasey and ed meese say. why didn't garland use the already-existing senate-confirmed u.s. attorney who's now many office to to prosecute the cases? that's the debate too. and under the constitution, under the law, under the appointments clause, a.g. garland was never vested and given the power to appoint special counsel officers like jack smith. i mean, jack smith reportedly is saying that the doj routinely hires special assistant the u.s. attorneys from the private sector, but it's been -- but he's still governed under the law. he has to basically work with and assist a u.s. attorney, not do it on his own. he's not assisting. he's running a massive, multimillion dollar prosecution

of a former president acting as if he's a duly-confirmed u.s. attorney. >> well, they appointed jack smith because they knew if he was going to play ball the way they wanted to play it. there's an independent streak in u.s. attorneys, is and they come with senate confirmation, and there's a soberness to that position. so it would be unpredictable if they didn't go with anyone else. elizabeth: so any president can just get their attorney general to hire a pit bull to go after their predecessor. it's not where the u.s. court system and us have he's system was intended to go or be used. brett tolman, thanks for that. that was a great interview. let's welcome to the show, move on to this, retired u.s. army lieutenant colonel james carafano. the colonel served our nation for 25 years including in europe and korea. okay, we've got this story, colonel. israeli airstrikes are really pummeling hamas terrorists in rafah and gaza. israel is moving on a major offensive against hezbollah in

the north. what do you make of the biden white house canceling a high-level meeting on iran with israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu after netanyahu released a video claiming the u.s., the biden white house, was withholding military aid and arms? what do you think? >> i think the administration is out of strategy in the middle east. and as happens, normally with people who aren't in office, it's just all politics now. and so it's just the politics of how do we get through this. and there are literally -- they are literally schizophrenic. they are literally bipolar. on one day they want to try to look like they're supporting israel, another day they want to look tough on israel. i'm not a political guy, but the reality is i think they're annoying voters on both sides of this issue. and and they just can't find a political path forward which, by the way, is what they're searching for. they're not searching for a strategy, which is ma what they

should be focusing on. they're internaling for a -- searching for a political a narrative that gets them through november. elizabeth: got it. let's watch this. take a listen. >> i said it's inconceivable that in the past few months the administration has been withholding weapons and ammunitions to israel. israel, america's closest ally, fighting for its life, fighting against iran and our other common enemies. secretary blinken assured me that the administration was working day and night to remove these bottlenecks. i certainly hope that's the case, and i say give us the tools and we'll finish the job a lot faster. >> there was a shipment of bombs paused in early may at the start of the rafah offensive, but has the administration been withholding weapons and ammunitions for months like netanyahu seems to be saying? >> let me just start off by saying that we genuinely do not know what he's talking about. elizabeth: really? don't know what he's talking about? really? if senate democrats have been

telling biden to stop the aid, that's -- there's been big fights over this behind the scenes reportedly at the white house about aid is and arms to israel. so netanyahu puts up a video, says they're doing it, and the white house claims they don't know what's going on. >> right. elizabeth: zoning -- okay, so there's that. take that on. >> i mean, look, they did, right? they were trying to pressure these guys to make the dems happy, it's just the reality. but it didn't slow down, they're wrapping up hamas -- and you know this is true, because now they're sending very strong signals to hezbollah, dude, you are next. and they won't be doing that if they were thinking they had the a hamas thing pretty much towards the goal line are. elizabeth: lieutenant colonel, thanks for joining us. tonight's "evening edit" debate panel with ford o'connell and deroy murdock. hook at those gentlemen, they're fired up and ready to go. cnn is attempting to keep its upcoming presidential debate fair and balanced with new i rules never seen before.

elizabeth: joining us now for our "evening edit" debate panel, gop if strategist ford o'connell and fox news contributor deroy murdock. gentlemen, thanks for joining us. it's great to have you on. first to you, ford. what do you make of axios reporting that senior democrats, including some of president biden's close aides, are increasingly doubtful about biden's, quote, theory for victory in november? if it does not rely on economic or foreign policies, it relies, quote, on voter concerns about january 6th, democracy and donald trump. >> well, look, we're eight days from the debate, there's a reason why we're having the earliest presidential debate in modern history. when you look at the national polls, biden is losing. the six swing states that will decide this election, biden's losing every single swing state. they are panicked. they're looking for game-changer, and they think the way they can win is by playing up january the 6th and trump's convictions. i think they're going to be in for a rude awakening, because

the american public is much more concerned about the inflation and the border. elizabeth: do you agree, deroy? they're going to put a mute button on both candidates, stand up for 90 minutes, two commercial breaks, plus they cannot have notes. where do you come down? >> yeah. i think what biden's got to do is rather than look back three and a half years at a january 6th, he needs to look forward and tell people, i want four more years, here's what you're going to get. i'm not hearing very many ideas out of him. donald trump unveiled the idea of getting rid of taxes on tips. i'm waiting for joe biden to come up with a similar idea. i'm not hearing anything other than concentration camps and that trump's a criminal and he might be hitler and all this insanity, this ridiculous nonsense. and i think what joe biden ought to do is come up with a positive vision for america and try to share it with the american public. if he doesn't, maybe he shouldn't be running for re-election. elizabeth: how will cnn's

presidential debate's rules help or hurt either candidate? watch former cnn political analyst on this. he thinks a mute button and commercial breaks benefit biden. watch this. >> i don't love it from a debate perspective, but from a who does this benefit perspective, it cheerily benefits biden. i think trump just tries to get you off your pace, off your rhythm, off your game by talking and talking and talking. so that's rule one, benefit biden. two commercial breaks. this is different than what with we've seen in the past. there was no room to sort of take a breath. again, i think this probably benefits biden a little bit. he gets a little time to regroup. i do think he has more policy than that he's going to try to remember than trump does, and it at least creates the possibility that biden looks a little lost at some time if he forgets his place. he can't look down at his notes and and have one word to remind him what he wants to say. elizabeth: what do you think,

ford? if. >> i could not disagree more. i think the best thing president trump could do in this debate is let joe biden be joe biden, because the more joe biden talks, the american public comes to realize that he doesn't have the ability, the agility or the mental acuity to serve another four years. and if he wants to talk about grievances against donald trump, go for it because donald trump should always pivot to the issues and stay on policy. elizabeth: what ford just said. deroy, crystals said the fact -- chris also said the fact that the candidates will not be allowed, they cannot have prewritten notes benefits trump because biden needs his note notecards. what do you think, deroy? >> ford's got esp, pretty much read my mind. i was going to say let biden be biden. i think one of the ways trump hurt himself last time, in 020, was that joe biden started talking. it seemed like he was about to drift off and just babble incoherently, and trump would interrupt and basically save him.

i think if trump does not have the ability to do that and biden starts answering a question, loses his place, freezes, we might see him in a bad situation where he's not able to explain his ideas at all. the best thing can do is just let joe biden talk. elizabeth: ford, deroy, thanks for joining us. still the ahead, congressman jeff van drew, we've got new reports judiciary chair jim jordan is threatening to subpoena the new york attorney general, letitia james. he wants documents he thinks could show links between biden and the new york-trump trial. all of this and more on "the evening edit." we're going to be right back. the day you get your clearchoice dental implants makes every day... a "let's dig in" day... mm. ...a "chow down" day...

elizabeth: look who is here welcome back to the show, jeff van drew, congressman is member of house judiciary. thank you for joining us, can you explain why your committee chairman jim jordan is threatening to subpoena new york attorney general letitia james in a push to investigate the new york conviction of trump, does he see links to the biden white house. >> i think he sees that there is looks like there is a link understand that

matthew was in prosecutors office and placed him in number 3 position. and that is so important to know, if you are in the numbers 3 position. it matters, it matters because you are supposed to be independent, not connecting to what is happening at the local level, nevertheless, matthew colangelo decided to go where he was some move to new york where he got a pay cut and a prestige cut, not as important as job he had. they wanted him to be the prosecutor, who was a connection they wanted to make sure at the white house, that they had what they considered to be best possible effort to make sure that --i >> how do you. >> relates to this case whether it was a injury t

-- the judge that was abide a biden supporter or the judge's daughter. it was in. >> jordan sent letters to all of colangelo employers, including doj, da brage, g. and, and trump foundation, the biden white house is pushing back hard on the timeline. shows how special counsel jack smith, and michael colangelo, and da bragg. and it ramped up after midterms after trump indicating he was running a again. and bunch of them took act on the same day on november 18. after the midterms, what

does chair jordan, what can he find? can he mind an e-mail from joe biden saying to unda bragg. what is the silver bullet that would link this. >> first of all, if they have nothing to worry about, they should turnover the documents, turnover the information, if you tell the truth you have nothing to worry about. but i think what chairman jordan is seeing there may be cla collaboration and a connection and a link, not between the president of the united states directly to someone in new york city. but it could be from staff, from other individuals, there could be things that were said and done by matthew colangelo again. in his role of being prosecutor. and also in his role of being at the department of justice, that should be separate from each other,

the department of justice didn't want anything to do with this case. suppose edly we have to investigate that. >> you are talking about a guy in power for 50 years, and joe biden knows how to pull on levers of power, it will be hard to find links, final word. >> hey, you never know. if there is no link and mo problem, there is no worries, they should turn it over, if there is a problem, they fear it they don't want to turn it over. elizabeth: congressman van drew thank you. we appreciate you, join us tomorrow night. we'll stay on the news for you, thank you for watching "the evening edit" on fox business, now to my buddies dagen and brian. dagen: thanks emac. elizabeth: sur
