you'd think a company in atlanta would find a black person to place in one of those c suite offices. later in the show we'll be taking a closer look at woke capitalism and what we can do about it, but we're going to start with a look at the covid pandemic. by any measure, the progress we're making is enormous. more than 100 million people in the u.s. have now received the vaccine. the economy is now opening up, indeed, the u.s. is doing better than most major economies in the world. this week, the imf forecasted it would return much faster than most of the g7 countries. yet they seem determined to downplay the progress that's been made. in fact, to listen to them, they actually seem to want to keep us locked down and terrified indefinitely. >> we aren't at the finish line. we still have a lot of work to do. we're still in a life and death race against this virus. the real question is, how much death, disease and misery are we going to see between now and then. now's not the time to celebrate. gerry: the media, of course, is weighing in. the coverage in most of the newspapers these da

bob mansfield worried about player boycotts if he didn't change venues out of atlanta because of the georgia voting law and charges by some activists including the president who called it racist, jim crow on steroids, he worried about some player boycotts if he moved it out. now that he is moving out, it appears -- getting this from major-league sources, the team in the league is inundated with complaints over the decision to move out of georgia. for subscriptions, to have baseball on their cable packages. bob mansfield's political move to endorse critics of the voting rights law. it is unclear how big this will do, i guess there is a lesson for woke ceos. if you go that route you stand a good chance of annoying, having the public not buy your products. we should point out that 71 million people voted for donald trump, almost half the country. that is a lot of people to boycott major league baseball and we should point out baseball fans generally trended republican and conservative. bob manfred has a problem on his hands. neil: kim blackwell is with us, former secretary of state of o

reporter: the commissioner of baseball says moving the game in the dropped out of atlanta demonstrates the values of major league baseball. county travel and tourism bureau estimates moving the game will cost local businesses including minority local businesses more than $100 million and senator chuck schumer said new york should host the all-star game and ironing is new york election loss offer fewer early voting days than georgia does and also no one can pass out food or water valued at more than a dollar in new york and new york ex .-dot fires an excuse for an absentee ballot in georgia does not, just ballot identification card is what you need to buy alcohol or even your covid vaccine. ashley: interesting. thank you. we should point out call the county which is where the game would be held voted for joe biden and now they will lose millions of revenue by not hosting the all-star game and we know major league baseball has come out against georgia's law to show id to vote, that mlb teams still require fans to show photo id to pick up their will call tickets and baseball is not the on

that's what we saw with so many companies, major league baseball really hurt the city of atlanta and georgia in general by taking that all-star game out. mark. >> yeah, they really did. i mean, i don't understand what mlb did by moving the all-star game from georgia over to colorado where in atlanta 51% black, in denver it's 9% black. so i really don't know what mlb -- maria: that's a great point. >> -- did in that entire situation. it's a complete joke. all of these organizations and companies, they're getting bullied. that's what's happening right now, they're getting bullied and to stand your ground, i find that to be a noble trait. maria: border emergency, texas attorney general ken paxton is here on the migrant surge reaching record levels, the lawsuit behind texas against the biden administration. then, travel optimism comes back, american airlines and what it's doing to prepare for an uptick in travel demand. you're watching "mornings with maria" live on fox business. labradoodles, cronuts, skorts. (it's a skirt... and shorts) the world is going hybrid. so, why not your cloud?

were as well so now you have joe biden claiming it may be good for the all-star game to move out of atlanta. who does that help? the boycotts help? it doesn't help georgians who plan to work the oven, maybe hospitality industry without they would make up losses, financial offers they had during covid, there's a reason why stacey abrams came out and said the boycotts are harming the people, they say they are trying to help them. i don't understand the game plan other than to say it's a long push for changes on the federal issue, federal legislation, hr one, i think that's what they are ultimately pushing. >> you say relic of jim crow, that's almost welcomed demagoguery compared to what biden said which is worse than jim crow. jim crow on steroids which is historically illiterate. kevin, i understand you probably don't support the law but shouldn't president biden not lie about the law? he was last week in a press conference making statements about what was in the legislation involving what he said was curtailing of voting hours on voting day to target workers and it turned out that was absol

the ceos especially delta and coca-cola because they cost atlanta $100 million of getting rid of the all-star game they are bending to the woke left narrative that the election laws are races orra restrictive and that is not right. that is just a partisan democratic narrative, that is all it is, calling for what it is and pointed out by dan hann a and is beautiful wall street journal columnist, he calls these guys zoom ceos in the unkind cu of all he compares them to the ceos from the libby left the world economic forum. no matter how much the zoom ceos kick democratic but, kissed democratic but, they are still going to get tax and regulated to death. trust me, trustst me. they should wise up and protect the economic interest and not venture into social policies. if you need any more proof of how wrong the ceos are, a new poll to a liberal democratic pull. 58% of registered voters oppose american companies using their public role to influence political or cultural or social change. only 35% support. 58 - 35 and that the democratic leading pole, we do have my favorite democrat former

kansas city, omaha, louisville, new york, seattle, sacramento, columbus, ohio, dallas, atlanta and portland. >> we're seeing that for sure. law enforcement has to be prepared. i see the national guard has been put own alert. a good thing to have them up front and ready. we need to respond to the protests quickly. allow folks to peacefully protest. as soon as people hijack it, light fires, proprojectiles at police, they need to be dealt with quickly and if you are protesting peacefully, others are engaging in violence, you are part of a riot, should do what you can to get out of there as quickly as possible. i applaud the community leaders who are saying that they don't want protesters coming in and engaging in violence. they want to continue their message. they want to continue their process of changing policing in america and cities throughout our country without engaging in violence and doing so. elizabeth: yeah. you know antifa has slammed portland with riots about a year. they set on fire parts of the police union building, destroyed cop cars. the brooklyn center mayor taking command of

duluth a suburb northeast of atlanta. the president tomorrow will be in pennsylvania. then on monday he will head to virginia. you're right, brian, we have new details from the white house who would be impacted from the american families plan. part of the reason the president is on the road that is the proposal to raise taxes on the wealthy to pay for things like free preschool, community college, cap child care costs for low income families and paid leave program. white house has been all over the place with who will be taxed for the plan. white house official told me for individuals those that make under $452,700. for families it is those that bring in $500,300. those are adjusted income figures. here in washington, up on capitol hill, the messaging for the american families plan is now beginning from both sides of the aisle. watch. >> president biden proposed common sense investments and policies that will provide a pathway to success for working people and for america as a whole. >> instead of empowering families with flexibility, this one would subsidize specific

they took out a full-page in the "atlanta journal-constitution," to say to joe biden and stacey abrams stop lying about the georgia voting law. what do you say to that story? it's a big pushback? >> i think it is great this black conservative clergy group is out there, liz, to push back on the racist propaganda from democrats which i have been doing for many, many, years, liz. you have got to understand democrats play the race card to cover for their failures, their failed policies to divide and to distract. now we have president biden, who basically set the tone of racism and jim crow by lying about the new georgia law. he said the hours would be reduced to 5:00 p.m., when they would end the voting, when in fact that is not the case. he lied. so joe biden lied to americans. he lied to black voters. and really what people need to do is just read the law for themselves, liz, to see that they are lying. elizabeth: you know, deneen, you know, our viewers might recall how you and i talked about how you personally have been attacked for the brave positions that you have taken. we've got thi

will visit jimmy carter, rose lynn carter in atlanta. jonathan serrie in duluth georgia with all of this? reporter: neil, president biden is celebrating the first 100 days in office here in georgia. not only did the peach state help him get into the white house, but georgia gave the president's party a slim majority in the senate with the elections of democrats rafael warnock and john ossoff and that as allowed president biden to pursue a more ambitious agenda especially when it comes to government spending. that includes the american families plan, american jobs plan, american rescue plan, adding up to nearly $6 trillion in government spending. the president planned to celebrate passage of covid relief during the first visit to georgia back in march. neil: all right. we just lost jonathan scary. i apologize for that. you don't really want to know the technical issues we've been having. they're figuring it out. meantime i do want to go to tom bevin, "real clear politics," cofounder there. tom, the president obviously is taking this trip

screwed in this, martha, it's a small hard-working business people that are up in cobb county at metro atlanta area they're going to be hurt by the all-star game being pulled from here. this is outrageous. people need to stand up and join the fight and say look, we are done with the canceled culture and this pressuring. >> i am just going to boycott everything. president trump is now called for a boycott of the boycott or spring wants everyone to stop watching mld and screw all of those like-minded corporations. we can say screw now. is corporate america aching a mistake by picking a fight with the republican voters? who wins in the end? let's make tonight's party pouts a good way of the gary and shannon show on amp 640 in los angeles it is gary hoffman. i've democrat strategists and rubble communication strategist laura fink and gorgeous and yellow. 2020 libertarian candidate vp candidate the water to lease by cohen back in the octagon. let's go party people. all right, so gary you are a newsman you have been for many years. the one thing i have not heard in terms of these boycotts in this co

abrams pinned an op-ed two days before major-league baseball pooled the all-star game out of the city of atlanta. >> the first two words she used, words matter, actions have consequences, raphael warnock admitted he signed on to an e-mail the spread misinformation and lies about george's election integrity act of week before major-league baseball pooled out of this. they can't go out on this, this is history now they were complicit in assisting in encouraging major-league t baseball to pull the all-star game out of the state of georgia, their words and actions have consequences and unfortunately those consequences ended upen penalizing and harmig hard-working georgians and small businesses to the tune of $100 million to o our economy, o is it going to impact the most, the hard-working georgians, small businesses many minority small businesses. the very people they were trying to help, theyeo are hurting they should be held accountable for this. liz: you talk to americans, they say stop racism, cut it out, police brutality, stop that, they don't want votery suppression but when they read the law

this drug cartel's main hub is atlanta, secondary hubs in charlotte and in raleigh. they transport drugs along the interstatements up and down the east -- interstates up and down the east coast corridor. so we've got a major drug problem with these cartels in the u.s. what do you say? >> not only that, we're complicit because they're making over half a billion dollars per month trafficking people, boys, girls, women. and we're not even attempting to stop them. a lot of these children, by the way, are coming through with numbers. we are dealing with a very evil force, and we have a president right now who's not even interested in it, liz. and i want the parents out there, grandparents to realize, what would you do if it was your kid, your grandkids? we sit back and allow this to happen to these beautiful, vulnerable children and women and allow it to happen just because they don't want us to pay attention to it. this is the real deal. don't let the blitz -- the other things we're doing, we'll take care of that in time through the courts, but right now the border is ou

if you are major league baseball and say you have to move out of atlanta because they're having voter id, what about the other jurisdictions that you're in that have more restrictive laws. what about the fact that you're doing business for the communist party in china and you've done business with the castro regime in cuba. it doesn't make sense, i think corporate america by trying to genuflect to the woken is, i think they've gone down a bad road, they will tie themselves in knots trying to please the extreme left, what i've told people if the left is after you, the minute you buckle, you're just painting a bull's-eye on your back there gonna keep coming back and back and back. if you just and your ground, they will complain for a couple of days and then i'll move on to the next outrage. i think some of the corporate ceos need to grow some backbone and they need to be willing to stand up and not get pushed in to taking these positions. as you indicated, it is not based on facts. they are basically accepting very partisan left-wing narratives in fashioning policy based on that without

op-ed for "usa today" two days before major league baseball pulled the all-star game out of city of atlanta. the first two words she used, boycotts work. words matter and actions have consequences. her accomplice, rafael warnock admitted he signed on to a email that spread misinformation and lies about georgia's integrity election act two weeks before baseball pulled out on this. they can't pull back on this. they were complicit, insisting major league baseball to pull the all-star game out of georgia. their words, their actions, had consequences. unfortunately those consequences ended up penalizing, harming, hard-working georgians and small misses to the tune of $100 million to our economy. who will it impact the most? hard-working georgians, small business, many minority small businesses, many people they were supposedly trying to help they are hurting. they should be held accountable for this. elizabeth: you talk to americans, folks out there, they say stop racism, cut it out, police brutality, stop that. they don't want voter suppression but when they read the law, they say wait a secon

"i have decided that the best way to demonstrate our values as a sport is by relocating this year's all-star game and ml b draft. major league baseball fundamentally supports voting rights for all americans, and opposes restrictions to the ballot box." obviously we're going to keep you posted on this developing story, but this is why you guys, fox business, is very serious about being live on days when a lot of other business networks are not. there's major breaking news that happens, even if the stock market is closed, and there are going to be repercussions from all of the stories we have brought you, some obviously much more important and heavy duty than others. we need to take you back, speaking of which, to capitol hill where the lockdown in the wake of this afternoon's deadly

steve harrigan in atlanta on all of that. want to go to dr. tom price, former health and human services secretary, congressman and doctor by training. he's the whole package, and he speaks his own mind. he doesn't play politics. i always admire that. doctor, good to have you the -- >> thanks, neil. good to be with you. neil: your take on this latest data and the comments from the cdc director saying those vaccinated can feel safe to travel, others just use some caution, but certainly more promising than her doomful comments a week ago. what do you think? >> no, you're absolutely right. and i think there's wonderful news that's coming from the vaccine side. remember, this is a new disease. it's only been with us for a little over a year, and to consequently the vaccines didn't have the timeline in their trials to be able to determine how long the vaccines would be effective. and it appears they continue to be effective at least six months after their administration which is great news for folks as we move into the summer months. also as your re

let me switch gears, atlanta fed president rafael bostick supports reparations saying, quote, there should be a discussion about redress. i've had him on my show. he's a very thoughtful person, deneen. we've had this conversation before. i see them putting in place people of credibility to get this done. finish your thoughts? finish. >> i think it's wrong on so many levels, charles. no one alive today had anything to do with slavery, and what wht would the criteria be? i'm 95% sub-saharan african. would i get more money than someone else who was lighter than me? would there be some sort of a dna test? if what determines how much money a person would get? what about black slave owners? yeah, that is a part of the history as well. it's so wrong on so many levels. it makes absolutely no sevens. how about democrats supporting initiatives like school choice to liberate children from failing public schools. why don't we start there. charles: david, i've got 30 seconds, but i haven't heard your thoughts on what's happened this week with big businesses. looks like many are pushing back on being fo

cities facing unrest, can the city, omaha, louisville, new york, seattle, columbus, ohio, dallas, atlanta and portland. >> we see that for sure and law enforcement has to be prepared i've seen that the national guard is put on alert, it's a good thing to have them upfront and ready and not need them and we need to be able to to respond to these protests quickly and allow folks to peacefully protest but as soon as people hijacked like fires and projectiles that police, they need to be dealt with quickly and if you are protesting peacefully and others are engaging in violence you are part of variety and you should do what you could ask getting out of theirs quickly as possible. i applaud the community leaders that are saying they do not want protesters coming and engaging in violence they would continue their message and their process of changing policing in america in cities throughout our country without engaging in violence in doing so. liz: antifa has slammed portland for riots foror a year and last night they set on fire parts of the police union building industry cop cars. we had the

didn't mention yesterday that almost all of these mass shootings have in common certainly within in atlanta, colorado, one yesterday in south carolina is the issue of mental health. and that is something where there could be some bipartisan putting some money and some effort into managing, you know, the mental health aspect of this and studying trying to understand it in a way that we can keep guns out of the handle pfer people who are mentally ill. jackie: it's so interesting tom because i've been saying that since sandy hook shooting that we need to get if you want to talk about root causing of things that could be one of the root causes of why there is gun violence in this country yet no president no leader, nobody really ever tries to allocate funds or look at what, and you see it even here in new york city. as there's so many mentally ill people i'm not saying they're walking around with guns they're not but so many on street you say to yourself why are governments not addressing this problem? >> no it is exactly right, and there have been some studies. but the government hasn't fen ga

gosh, not play a baseball game in atlanta. who gets hurt? senator warnock complains, who got hit these citizens. black churches complaining, who will get hurt? their constituents. they will lose their jobs. not get paid because people, you know, like major league baseball moving the game. so there is day of reckoning. you can't keep talking down to all of the rest of us. you are almighty. you know the right thing to do. no, we'll stand up, vote what we believe. we believe in election security. we believe in voter i.d. we don't want people to harvest ballots. all americans want that by the way. not just a few. but these ceo's are just, they're just part of the woke left crowd. that is it what they are. stuart: thank you for writing that editorial on foxbusiness.com, mr. senator. it was good stuff. now then, governor of florida, ron desantis, he says some of the covid restrictions that were recommended by dr. fauci weren't really all that effective. listen to this for a second. roll it. >> i think that it took me a few weeks, march into april

some places like atlanta, new york, chicago, huge increases. and many of these jurisdictions, certainly new york and chicago, decided that police -- some police dollars were better spent elsewhere. in atlanta, you had protests and lack of support for policing, you had a lot of officers quit the force, choose to retire. they are now short-handed. that's one of the reasons they're having trouble dealing with this latest crime wave. cheryl: we've had congresswoman nicole malliotakis several times. she said those communities that are suffering with the lack of police are black and brown communities. it shows that the -- go ahead. steve: you took the words right out of my mouth. the victims of all of the mayhem and the looking in the cities have -- looting in the cities, have been the low income residents in these mostly minority communities. there was a recent analysis of what happened to the real estate values in these neighborhoods and most of these are immigrant and minority neighborhoods. they have fallen. in minneapolis, in los angeles, in new

the decision to hold the rally in atlanta sparking criticism. the president himself has been a vocal critic of georgia's new voting laws and supported efforts to boycott business in the state. georgia proved to be a he key state for biden in the 2020 election. futures are pointing to gains to start trading this day, big gains if you look at the nasdaq 100 futures, up almost 1%. this after president biden unveiled his american families plan in his first address to congress and the proposal calling for tax hikes. >> i will not impose any tax increase on people making less than $400,000. but it's time for corporate america and the wealthiest 1% of americans to begin to pay their fair share. just their fair share. i'm not looking to punish anybody. but i will not add an additional tax burden to the middle class in this country. they're already paying enough. dagen: joining me now, federated hermes chief investment officer, steven auph. also joining the conversation all morning long, steve forbes, who i know will have a lot to say about the speech la

jonathan seri with the latest from atlanta. reporter: hi there, neil. well the cdc is convening its expert panel of vaccine experts. this is an independent panel that gives the cdc, fda and other regulators advice in this case on how to proceed with the johnson & johnson vaccine. u.s. health officials recommended a temporary pause as they investigate a possible link between j & j's vaccine and a small number of women who developed a rare form of blood clot 6-13 days after receiving the shot. with only six cases reported out of the 6.8 million vaccinations now more than 7 million critics say the feds are being overly cautious and may unncesssarily frighten people away from potentially life saving vaccines but federal health officials say it's the safety culture that should reassure americans. >> jointly, cdc and fda were able to identify these rare events, and act quickly to alert healthcare providers and the public. this demonstrates that the safety systems we have in place are working. >> it should reinforce, in those individuals, how we take safety so

i think they came out against the mlb having its all-star game in atlanta. i have to check that. but they caught a lot of flak from their customers, so now what they're seeing, despite the wokeness of corporate america, customers are fighting back and also republican elected officials. this wokism is not that great for business. neil, back to you. neil: still as curious, i always look at jamie dimon as a pretty savvy political player as well. while this was going on his not signing on to this particular measure he did announce that jpmorgan chase is allocating about 2 1/2 trillion over the next ten years for climate change solutions, that sort of thing. it is as if he was trying to signal to the left you know, this is a cause near and dear to me and you, on this we can agree. what did you make of the timing of all of that? >> listen, everybody, listen, all the ceo's kiss up to the wokeness to a certain degree. it is not beyond jamie dimon for being a little woke. i will say this though, attacking voter laws extremely popular in red states what it really comes down to, i don't thi

leaders and lawyers, starbucks a board chair linkedin founder and home depot founder and the owner of the atlanta falcons participating discussing measures to take opposing georgia's new voting law. they want to build on the lender they say is signed by 72 african-american executives released last week so they need this second statement could come this week. many signing on to this next statement read to the "wall street journal". state and federal lawmakers in the companies are misreading the matter and also acting as a shadow lawmakers which they should not do but then you hear from the canned fraser's and others that instituted and really catalyzed the movement that we should not let up and that corporations should be speaking with their authorities. stuart: i would like to know exactly what they want to do about this, which at this moment to is unclear i want to bring in congressman jody hice from the state of georgia. tellis, what you had to say to these ceos, major-league public corporations which are taking a stand against you and your state? >> you know, it's preamble leave the ball. we a

league baseball all-star game is moving to denver which is 9% black versus half of the population of atlanta. it's black and crushed black-owned businesses. i think that that's where the republicans also can really win in talking about what are they doing for prosperity for all georgians. >> well, i mean, do you think the ceo's actually read the law, dagen? it's quite extraordinary. are they getting rolled over and bullied by the extreme left. dagen: they didn't read the georgia law and they didn't -- they have virtually no knowledge of laws in liberal states like new york that are more restrictive. so maybe they ought to, you know, bone up on that before they weighed in. they are becoming extremely political and so what does this mean? now all of the ceo's are going to have to say, oh, are you in favor of hr1, are you in favor of federalizing election law and taking power away from the states, are you in favor of the proact which has passed the house which gets rid of right to work laws? again this is crushing states' rights and ceo's are going to be required to express their views on feder

in fact, a day after the atlanta shootings he posted on facebook, we've all had bad days, but it never justifies hate crimes. and then we find out the day before he allegedly committed a hate crime against an asian-american woman in seattle. he was screaming vulgarities at her including asian b-word, punching his hands into his palms as if he was getting ready to assault her and her two kids. luckily, she was able to get away, but this was not the only instance that he's alleged to have committed something similar. another instance he allegedly cut off two asian women who were driving and a similar circumstance where he used vulgarity against them, citing their asian identity. throwing items at the car. they thought they were going to be assaulted and they, too, were able to speed away. so he has been charged with one count of a hate crime for the three instances. he just recently posted bail, and now he's out awaiting a trial. stuart: jason, this whole story story of hate directed at asians has been framed by many people in the media as white supremacy. i don't think the reporting is
