the u.s. tour not stopping th there, expected to tout the leadership in primary states with upcoming visits from new hampshire, let's bring in the next revolution. next resolution next to decembeh you. i just want to play a little bit of what ron desantis said when he appeared looking very presidential at the reagan library. listen here. >> from the beginning of this state's history all the way until the last four or five years, people beat a path to california, not away from california, and yet now you see the state hemorrhaging population. >> john: last republican twin men california was bush california 1988. don't expect he would have a chance if he runs for president in 2024, but making the comparison between california and florida for him carries a lot of capital.

>> exactly, the paddocks are on his side, highly inconvenient facts were gavin newsom to support the argument you heard their witches for the first time in a hundred 70 years of california's existence as a state, we lost a congressional seat because the population is declining because people are leaving. and it's not just people who are leaving come of the of california's wealth and opportunity is leaving. the businesses are actually creating come of the things that people use to flock to california for coming to see them left and right, hewlett-packard, one of the iconic companies and the list goes on of companies who just can't stand anymore the combination of high taxes, ridiculous overregulation, and the fact that their employees can't afford to live anywhere, because housing costs are so high because of regulation, the fact that the crime is out of control because of the far left policies, because of the restrictions on everything else that causes the cost of living in california to be so much higher than anywhere else in the

country. paying the highest taxes and seems to have the worst outcomes, the highest positivity just to pick one example, the model that gavin newsom argues is the thing that the rest of the country should follow is completely broken. everyone can see it. that's why people are leaving. speak to you and michael shellenberger on the same page here. here's what he says california used to be like. he said "california boasted a pioneering public education system where every child no matter how poor could receive a good education. it had affordable suburbs built around nuclear families, growing and quadrupling its population after world war ii. in a word, california represented progress. now the state has become america's shadow self. it took a long time for it to get there, but it is they are. it's a way different place than it used to be. >> exactly, and people need to remember, we focus a lot on gavin newsom for obvious reasons, he is a figurehead in terms of state leadership, but a

lot of these terrible policies are coming out of state legislature, there you have had total democratic control of both chambers for 25 plus years. a quarter of the century, no republican involvement really and the laws and regulations that come out that affect the state. just one thing i would pick up from what my goal quite rightly rode in terms of the education system and it goes to the reparations system, it's true that we need much more work to be done to create real opportunity for everyone regarding race, so look at the public schools, on average black kids in california's public schools are four years behind white kids, because of the public schools run by the teacher unions that are pushing the reparations plan, it does not get to the real problem, which is the fact that the public services like education are just collapsing. >> john: you know, gavin newsom hits back as well, he does not just sit there and

let ron desantis hit him on the chain. here is what he rode in a tweet about ron desantis. he said hey governor brown desantis, you're struggling and distracted playing politics with people's lives, since you have only one overriding need, attention, let's take this out to debate. i will bring my hair gel, you bring your hair spray. i'm ron desantis made a comment that he thought that hair gel had modeled his brain. that was last fall that he tweeted that. but if these two ended up going head-to-head, the presidential contest, maybe not 2024, but 2028 it would be an interesting battle. >> clearly, but the thing that is hilarious about gavin newsom with all of these problems going on in the state, he seems completely obsessed actually with treating the limb and tweeting at ron desantis and other red state governors is who he focuses his amber and beyond. and i talked about it on my show and said we have to stop them tweeting, people can go right now and tell them we set up a petition, gavin stop

tweeting.com, because we needed to focus on the real issues. i think that california can get back to that california dream if you like that michael was riding about. and i don't think that it is inconceivable that in the years ahead people will be so fed up with how things have gone under this one-party rule from the democrats that we will see republicans back in control in california, because it seems to me the far left can only push people so far before you get -- if you get the revolution against it. >> john: we were talking about the mamas and pop was a little earlier this afternoon, getting back to the california dream might not be bad. great to see you, we'll see you next weekend. >> john: all of the leaves are brown and the sky is gray. >> in the, great song, one of my favorites, dream a little dream of me. we should have a mama's and papa's appreciation >> john: and the birds. >> gillian: you guys watch, right? that would be great.

let's bring in fox news contributor and national review institute fellow. douglas, this d.c. city council crime bill is seems turning into somewhat of a litmus test for politicians at the national level here in washington. >> of course it is, and it comes to what has come up in your previous segments, and we are increasingly unsafe, and just saw the result of the race in chicago and mayor lori lightfoot except for the crime on the city for her losing her role. and they wanted her to stop, mayor adams in new york has quite rightly said if we don't get a grip on the crime we will lose a lecture. democrats, moderate democrats should learn from the episode. what is happening in washington

is a demonstration that the moderate democrats are trying to learn from a fiasco and in chicago. >> gillian: the senate plans to vote on the legislation even if the city council re-sends it. take a listen to senator cornyn talk into a john roberts moments ago. it speak of the d.c. city council was out of control, another sort of signal that we don't respect the police and the important role they play into lower criminal that will make crime gets worse, not better. so i expect a strong bipartisan vote later this week. >> gillian: that something you don't see every day, voting on legislation that is not going before them. they feel strongly about it. >> stopping minimum sentencing for very serious offenses, where

if you go light on them then everything else in the city breaks down. we are talking about things like burglary, robbery, carjacking, the idea that any city in america would go lighter on these crimes, and striking most people across the aisle as preposterous, and as they say, the more moderate democrats as well as on the republicans realize that very clearly, and just as we know, it's the anti-police movement within the democratic party, there is a soft on crime elements, the belief that there will be a messy period in criminal, but we get social justice somehow on the other side, and american cities like chicago and washington, like d.c. and new york, increasingly unsafe, and goes across the political aisles, and whether or not the democrats will respond with the

chinese budgets roughly twice what it was just a decade ago, a new qualifying that 50% of americans now called china our greatest enemy. that is up dramatically from just 20% three years ago. covid. senior foreign affairs correspondent is live with more on this from london. and what have chinese officials been saying about the military? >> just the last couple of days china has been confirming it is indeed adding to the military might. the word comes at a meeting of the rubber stamp parliament, which among other things is bolstering xi jinping's hold on the communist party. the country, and the military. he is commander in chief. while the budget had just under a trillion dollars is less than the pentagon spending, experts say that beijing regularly understates the force over for the military and that has been steadily increasing. for example it standing army, the biggest in the world as it is its navy, its batteries and missiles, quadrants and fighter

jets and nuclear weapons are all growing fast, john. all of this due to the chinese officials over the weekend escalating external threats to contain china. which requires beijing to intensify military training and preparedness across the board. and going to get a lot of attention lately as it flexes the military muscles around taiwan, the self governed island, and beijing says it is its own and threatens to harm big time its ally russia and war with ukraine. and you are right, number one enemy according to the latest polls, china and the united states right now is the number one for the last three years or so, so there is a growing alarm about what is happening over there. back to you. >> john: they have all of this money from the trade deficit to fund with. and gillian. >> gillian: how are the president and lawmakers on capitol hill dealing with growing concerns with china over out, joining us from

"the wall street journal" reporting that the pentagon, and now concerned about chinese made cranes add to reports across the u.s. that could be used as spying tools. now take a look at this with me. the journal writes that they contain sophisticated sensors that can register and track their providence and destination of containers prompting concern that china could have information about material being shipped in or out of the country to support like u.s. military operations around the world. >> i mean, this has national security risk, we don't know if china has the ability to flip a switch and make those cranes inoperable. we need to focus 100% of our

efforts on this. make sure we are providing some type of manufacturing replacement in the united states of america. >> so here on capitol hill, there is growing bipartisan calls for action across different issues like the fentanyl epidemic to covid, likely coming from a lab, mark warner and republican whip john boone will introduce bipartisan legislation to be able to ban foreign technology and that could include the widely popular social media app tiktok health, also really quickly, some news developing on the hill in the last hour, gillian. reuters is reporting that speaker kevin mccarthy will now meet with the president of taiwan on u.s. soil, and that this meeting could potentially replace a potential mccarthy trip to taiwan, we reached out to his office and so far we are only getting a no comments on this.

but that would be a big change in plans that we have heard reported in the past couple of weeks about a potential trip to that island. possibly now changing. >> gillian: possibly a change for u.s. policy as well, and on capitol hill for us, thank you. >> john: house republicans gearing up for their first hearing on cordial and don't men covid origins as brand-new emails just revealed show how dr. anthony fauci commissioned a study to disprove the wuhan lab theory back in 2020. questioning why the theory was dismissed by not only dr. fauci, but the mainstream media. let's bring in jonathan turley, constitutional law and fox news contributor. this was a very famous study that was done in the spring of 2020. they came out with a fairly definitive conclusion that covid could not have originated from a lab, improbable was the word that they used, but now we find after the revelation of these emails being released that it

was dr. anthony fauci who commission that and had the final say on it. >> yes, john, i've not been a vocal critic of dr. fauci, but i do think he has been less than forthcoming on this issue. now obviously dr. fauci got a lot of things wrong, i mean, at the very beginning he praised china for being extraordinarily transparent and cooperative for a change. we still don't even know what that was based on. we know now that china basically destroyed evidence, arrested or threatened scientists, and all but shut down any efforts to find the origins of covid. now we are finding out that dr. anthony fauci was pushing this study and funding it. that's really disturbing when you put in the context of what we know was going on. we now know because of litigation that the cdc had back channels of social media to censor people to target people

who would be suspended. we also know of course that various scientists were effectively silenced or shunned, and one of the criticisms that i have had with dr. anthony fauci and his colleagues as they really said nothing during this period. you know, i looked to these free-speech issues particularly. and as very qualified and respected scientists were being silenced and shunned, we did not hear a peep of objection from people like dr. fauci, to say you should not be suspending these people. you should allow this debate to occur on social media. because these are some of the best known scientists during that period. instead the media worked with cdc and they effectively shut down this debate. >> john: the big question that some members of congress have is why would dr. fauci go to such lengths to discount the possibility of a lab leak origin. here's what jim jordan said to maria bartiromo on senate futures yesterday, listen here.

speak of the fundamental question is why was dr. fauci so consumed with making sure that the narrative was not about the lab? i think it's because they were doing data function research and he did not want that out and that was the narrative that everyone on the left bought into even though the facts and common sense may be most important point into the lab leak theory. >> john: the congressman is pointing to something sinister, what do you think? >> i think it could be a mix of different elements. first of all, the origin theory became sort of anti-trump talking point, because he would refer to this as the china virus, or the wuhan virus, and there coalesced an opposition calling it racist and a conspiracy theory, and once you see that sort of coalesced with what we seen in the past, and the media went straight with the narrative that there were no variation, anyone offering a dissenting view was swatted down, but we also know that many

of the scientific voices we heard early on had connections to this lab and to this research. and said that does raise to very troubling questions about the bias that went into some of these initial efforts. i mean, it seems rather clear as it did then that the lab theory had to be plausible. do not mean that it was the correct theory, but you had a lab doing this research near the wet market and wuhan. you had a very competent and respected scientist saying we don't understand how this thing is constructed or how it could occur naturally, this does not answer the question, but instead of allowing the debate, the social media, many people in congress, and people at the cdc shut it down and made these people pariahs for even mentioning it. >> john: as joe concha observed, he said if there was an outbreak of chocolatey goodness in hershey,

pennsylvania, they might expect the chocolate factory. and here's what newt gingrich said, this is the biggest scandal in american history. we now know the censorship and speech silencing as a part of the systematic effort of senior scientists to mislead the american people. jonathan, great to kick off the week with you. we will see you again soon. >> thanks, john. >> john: as branko berger awaits the trial for the murder although four college students, he is getting a lot of support surprisingly from fans online including love letters. >> john: what pathology explains that? tell me please. criminal defense attorney mark will break down some of the bizarre support and weigh in on his possible legal fate just ahead. meowd. ♪ ♪ at newday we make it easy. our newday 100 loan lets you combine your first mortgage, your second mortgage,
