“Was it tough to distort the truth in the end?”

A week after President Donald Trump was sworn in for a second term, former Biden administration official Meghan Hayes appeared on the show to discuss the economy. Faulkner questioned the Biden administration’s portrayal of “bidenomics.”

“Was it tough to distort the truth in the end?” Faulkner asked. “The message seemed confusing, especially when they claimed that ‘Bidenomics’ wasn’t benefiting people.”

“Would you like to take America into root and win?”

Faulkner pressed a former New York Democrat senator on whether he was really rooting for America, especially after Caldwell suggested that Republicans had “crashed” the country.

“Would you like to take America into root and win?” she asked. “Is that what you’re doing?”

“No, it’s definitely not!” came the response.

“Did you hear the cupping?”

Faulkner confronted Democrat strategist Fred Hicks as he attempted to dismiss Democrats’ challenges. “No, no, no, no! Did you hear the cupping?” she interjected.

The conversation escalated as they debated the struggles of the Democratic party and its disconnect with the American public.

“Is your party disassembling itself while laughing with the American people?” Faulkner asked. “They are two different things!”

“They aren’t fighting the American public; they’re expressing discontent,” Hicks replied. Faulkner shot back, urging him not to excuse negative behavior.

“Do you want to start calling us again people of color?”

In reaction to a speech by President Biden in Chicago, Faulkner expressed disbelief at what she perceived as hypocrisy. “He spoke for about 30 minutes instead of the scheduled hour, and it was filled with odd statements,” she remarked.

“So he wants to start calling us people of color again?” Faulkner exclaimed after airing a clip. “This is a mess. Just a few months back, he labeled Trump voters as garbage.”

“You can’t be snooked like that.”

In an interview, Faulkner touched on Biden’s political decline while questioning former Democrat Pat Murphy in Pennsylvania. Murphy insisted those close to Biden were too kind to acknowledge the issues.

“Look, this is politics,” she responded. “It’s tough. Do you think they were just trying to be nice?”

Murphy countered, asserting that both parties face similar challenges. “You can’t be snookered like that. You have to acknowledge reality,” he said.

“You live in a sanctuary state, right?”

Faulkner also voiced strong opinions on the U.S. Immigration Customs Enforcement (ICE) during a segment with Democratic strategist Leslie Marshall. Marshall criticized the agency, claiming they were misdirected in their efforts.

“What we’re upset about is there is no ICE chasing down gangs,” Marshall claimed. “They know where they are.”

Faulkner interrupted, asking, “Do you live in a sanctuary state?”
