pete: griff, our man at the border. i know you will be with us as the lights come on the border. such an important story. we appreciate you being there. as you look at numbers, good morning, will, questioned, everyone to "fox & friends" on sunday morning, 700% capacity of a facility, you don't have to be a intelligence professional preinauguration day, to recognize a dramatic shift in rhetoric, shift in policy would bring about a swell on the border. everyone knew this was coming. unlike covid where no one could have predicted a year ago a coronavirus would preet a pandemic that would change our lives, everyone knew this crisis was coming because we were sending a welcome sign to our border that. there was pent-up demand because of previous policies you have to wait in line. you can't be a border hopper. now you get people crammed under overpasses, exclusive photos we shared with you yesterday. the kind of thing that our leaders should have seen coming. of course, will, they have not. will: they have not. congressman john katko in griff's report put it very well. he said fema assigned to this crisis by the very fact that they were assigned to this crisis is an admission it's a crisis but fema was stretched thin by natural disaster in the coronavirus pandemic. to have it now taxed even further by a government-created crisis, is insult to injury. governor ron desantis said, we had it right before but we got it wrong now. >> obviously is a disasterous change in policy, jed. if you look, donald trump obviously had the wall which we all supported but safe third party agreements as well as remain in mexico. guess what happened? the border was under control. so they have gone back on those policies and they have created this crisis but i think that this is intentional. this is idea lodge call. i think that they're getting bit by this politically now but i think this was something that they absolutely anticipated. so it is a disasterous way to start an administration. i think most of the american people will be strongly opposed to this. jedediah: one of the things that the biden campaign at the time promised a more humane, they worded it approach to immigration. then the trump administration. you look at these images. you look what is happening. there is nothing humane about this. those images we were showing a few minutes ago right there, these are not conditions that are acceptable and the problem is, where do you put these people when you have centers at 700 plus percent capacity, you have no choice. so now they have ending abled a very inhumane situation where food supplies will be challenged. sanitary conditions will be challenged. i was reading a report people were not able to take showers for days and days at a time. you're in the midst of a global pandemic where living in close quarters is not ideal by any stretch of the imaginemation. they will need to do something. i don't have the answer what they can do right now in this moment. we'll talk to a lot of people who may have the answers. coming up on the show, representative clay higgins, representative tony gonzalez live at 6:30 a.m. eastern time. a lot more experts on immigration we'll need to speak to. they have to pivot to somebody who knows what they're doing over there, to prevent the flow of people. you can't accept everybody. there is not enough room to process that many people, to enable these type of inhumane conditions going on. will: we'll head to the border throughout the show as pete mentioned. bringing you reports throughout the morning. pressure is mounting on governor andrew cuomo to resign. perhaps best reflected in these numbers. check this out. 135 new york state lawmakers called for cuomo to resign, step aside, or be impeached. 86% of federal lawmakers from new york calling on his resignation or his impeachment. all but three democrats federally have called on him to resign. 83% of new york state senate wants him to resign. 80 plus assembly lawmakers want him to step down. those numbers are absolutely stunning. meanwhile several staffers, jedediah, are saying the culture around him is such that it is no longer appropriate to show up for work. >> i didn't experience the same sexual harassment or sexual experiences that a lot of woman who came forward have discussed but i will say it is connected what i did experience a experience, a culture of fear, a culture of toxic behavior where the governor and people closest to him in his inner circle, condescend to those aren't them, berate them, belittle them, insert people around them fear in a way only prevents people from being able to do their job, but prevents new yorkers receiving the best leadership from a government and governmental staff which the primary mission should be to serve the people of new york but it prevents people from being able to enter a work place and be safe. jedediah: so you have state senator alexander biaji coming forth, saying sexual harassment allegations aside that is something that needs to be investigated. looks like some are assault allegations a culture of bullying that behavior was unacceptable going on they could face consequences personally and professionally as a result. we'll see a lot of that in the days and weeks coming. pete: you're right, jed. his own staff abandoning him. not showing up for work. a bad sign if you're the chief executive. play the distraction speculative game. if you went to the associated press looked at article, they're claiming republicans talking about cuomo problems, it's a big distraction. here is the headline from the ap. escalating, top dems calling for cuomo to resign amid harrassment allegations. here is the actual quote, the escalating political crisis spawned an impeachment inquiry in overwhelmingly democrat state and threatens to cast a cloud on president joe biden's early days in office. republicans seized on the scandal to distract from biden's success tackling the coronavirus pandemic and challenge his party's well established advantage with female voters. we had talked a little bit how potentially talking about these allegations from people that have worked for cuomo could be a distraction away from his nursing home problems which have killed thousands of new yorkers who were put into the places. ap doing cover for democrats, saying biden doing so well the vaccine donald trump handed him they have to go at cuomo? will: the app purportedly is supposed to be a non-biased news service organization. surrender that title, surrender that pretense this is the best, most stark, clearly laid out example of what kind of bilge in the tank junk they're pedaling on a day-to-day basis. at that that is not reporting. that is vomit. pete: that is not an op-ed. that is an article. jedediah: cuomo, biden, separate people, by the way, really separate issues, the only thing that crosses over, joe biden should make a statement on the nursing home scandal. that is something he should come out to speak on behalf of many people who lost loved ones. separate politicians, separate issues. ap needs to check themselves. will: republicans seize to distract. turning to headlines, a urgent manhunt underway for this man wanted in connection with quadruple homicide in a indianapolis home. malik haracre. is armed and dangerous. he is thought to be with a six-month baby, malia. they have located the infant thankfully unharmed. to extreme weather, multiple tornadoes touch down in northwest texas. at least six twisters reported throughout the panhandle between lubbock and amarillo. power lines downed but no one was hurt. storms slammed colorado. 2000 flights, did it say 2,000 flights out of denver airport?

"the times" claims the president stretched the truth of pandemic and his response to it. but was far different language last month when the times accused former president trump of lie after lie. here to react, pollster, president and partner of maslansky and carter, lee carter. thanks for being here this morning. this is good sign "the new york times" is willing to fact check, is this direct evidence there is a double standard? it is misleading for one and lying for another? >> there is no question there's a double standard and it shouldn't surprise us after all this time. language really does matter. everything that i do was focused on the use of language and my belief, you say it matters -- [inaudible]. difference between lie and exaggeration, lie and misleading it is significant. we can get really upset about it, the truth of the matter "the new york times" is fact-checking joe biden and republicans should use it to their advantage. really what joe biden had done during the address tried to rewrite history. "the new york times" is calling him out on it. republicans should too. republicans have one job the next two years, to prove america and americans would be better off if they were in charge. joe biden is trying to rewrite history here and shouldn't allow it to happen. pete: you mentioned rewriting history. here is another example. >> when i took office 50 days ago,% of americans, after months, only% of those over the age of 65 gotten their first vaccination. today, that number is 65%. reporter: that is what he said. here is what the "new york times" fact checked him misleading. when mr. bide took office on january 20th the vaccination effort had just begun after fda authorized vaccine for use in mid-december. agency said 65 to 74 receive vaccine own after administered to residents, long-term care facilities, front line essential workers and people over the age of 75. presumably the writers of this speech would have known those things from the cdc and fda, they choose not to include that. >> they have a right to choose their area of focus. if he wants to take credit for rolling out the plan that was already in place, he can go ahead and do that but the american people are on to it in some ways. joe biden really is trying to take credit for the vaccine and i think that many people are rejected that notion. pete: it is effective politics if people are not paying attention, we got it you vaccine, forget about "operation warp speed." words do matter, in this case glare iingly so. lee carter. appreciate it. >> great to be here. pete: new york city law make remembers offering a solution for the country's largest school district. council man joe borelli is calling for summer school to make up for lost learning but will unions listen?

>> i think it does. i think you're see aground swell of support from parents who are watching basically in real time as their students and children suffer from online learning. they spent nearly a year without any class time instruction. overwhelming majority of students in new york city have not been inside of a classroom a single day over a year. when we talk about a stimulus package we're lucky to have, we're fortunate that the federal government gave us money, it is important that it goes towards the problem. the problem that was we didn't have enough overpriced consultants or teacher workshops or things like that. the problem we didn't have enough time with our students in front of their teachers learning reading, science, math, all the important things we make them learn. jedediah: so, joe, talk to me about the teachers unions in this. i would anticipate there may be some pushback on this from them, given what we've seen in past weeks and monthonths. what do you think? >> yeah. i would actually be surprised if they really dig their heels in and oppose this. this is something that they did even suggest as part of their vision for what the stimu money should go for. no one is suggesting that these teachers who woman in over the summer shouldn't be paid for their work but look, i hear from teachers that i represent. my wife is a teacher. some of them are the ones actually sounding the alarm bells the amount of time they spent away from their students will have adverse effects on them long-term. we get the kids for 12 years, from k-12. we have the obligation to make sure they leave new york city's school system with a sound education. you can't take away 10% to not know there will be ramifications in the future. at the end of the day if it is not catching kids up on the important subject matters at hand, it has been wasted, frankly. jedediah: a lot of those things also like hvac units, replacement of filters that takes a very long time to achieve this is something that can be done rather quickly. what we're talking about an optional one or two month half day summer school. are we to assume, this is silly question, not in these times. are we to assume all of that would happen in person? >> i think the real need is for in-person education. you know, some students were fortunate they were able to thrive with online learning, especially some of the older students but i can tell you i have a kindergartener, the online program didn't work. didn't help him one bit. you will see parents opt in. they will demand the actual time that they're entitled to with their teachers. my biggest fear is two years -- jedediah: yeah, i don't want to interrupt you, but the thing that strikes me you sound very optimistic about the ability to pass this. the reason i asked about in-person, you said teachers unions would be unlikely to object, but we've seen teachers union object heavily to in-person learning in the past to this moment. so why do you think that would change for a summer school option? i'm genuinely curious. >> we'll pay them, to come in the sumter do that. frankly we're already starting to see new york city schools start to reopen. by the end of the year almost every teacher will be back in front of a classroom in some form. the students though are the ones who won't be in five days a week. we'll still be on a rotating schedule. i don't think the teachers have a problem putting their heels in the sand and not budging on this i actually think with an additional, you know, check for teaching extra programs over the summer a lot of teachers would opt into it. jedediah: yeah. you know, i'm sorry i interrupted you. i want to have you back to talk about some struggles of the online learning we've seen in your own family. i hope you were right, joe. i hope people are on board. i think families really need it. i think kids need it. i'm a little bit less optimistic than you are, but i'm hopeful nonetheless. thankthank you for our conversan today,. >> thank you. jedediah: a border crisisgrowing by the day a group of house lawmakers will travel to texas to see the case first-hand. tony gonzalez is join heading to the border tomorrow but first they join us live. so when a hailstorm hit, usaa reached out before he could even inspect the damage. that's how you do it right. usaa insurance is made just the way martin's family needs it with hassle-free claims, he got paid before his neighbor even got started. because doing right by our members, that's what's right. usaa. what you're made of, we're made for. ♪ usaa ♪ this isn't just freight. we're made for. these aren't just shipments. they're promises. promises of all shapes and sizes. each with a time and a place they've been promised to be. a promise is everything to old dominion, because it means everything to you. i'm erin. -and i'm margo. we've always done things our own way. charted our own paths. i wasn't going to just back down from moderate to severe rheumatoid arthritis. psoriatic arthritis wasn't going to change who i am. when i learned that my joint pain could mean permanent joint damage, i asked about enbrel. enbrel helps relieve joint pain, and helps stop permanent joint damage. plus enbrel helps skin get clearer in psoriatic arthritis. ask your doctor about enbrel, so you can get back to your true self. -play ball! enbrel may lower your ability to fight infections. serious, sometimes fatal events including infections, tuberculosis, lymphoma, other cancers, nervous system and blood disorders and allergic reactions have occurred. tell your doctor if you've been someplace where fungal infections are common. or if you're prone to infections, have cuts or sores, have had hepatitis b, have been treated for heart failure, or if you have persistent fever, bruising, bleeding or paleness. don't start enbrel if you have an infection like the flu. visit enbrel.com to see how your joint damage could progress. enbrel. eligible patients may pay as little as $5 per month. ♪. will: with migrants racing to our southern border illegalling crossings are up 28% if the first full month of biden presidency, but since the white house refuses to call it a crisis, hoist minority leader kevin mccarthy will lead a group of republicans to texas to see what is going on. clay higgins of louisiana as well as texas congressman tony gonzalez will be on that trip. they joan me now. welcome to both of you. tell us why this is happening first of all why is this happening? why are we seeing a massive surge, one that is projected to go up in the coming months happening right now? >> well, i will take that. joe biden clearly communicated during the course of his campaign that his policies were going to be receptive to illegal crossings. he is basically created this crisis at the border. he have announced it very, very heavily changed policy regarding our law enforcement mission at the border, he stated that he intended to offer amnesty or a path to citizenship for the 11 million that were here. he was constantly messaging this during the campaign. and the cartels were listening. so the cartels, all through central america and mexico into south america, venezuela and columbia they have incredible infrastructure. they were paying attention since last summer, hoping for a biden victory. so we are where we are. we should not be surprised. will: right. >> i don't know if the biden administration would have expected given what they messaged out during the campaign. will: i think the cartel point is very important. we talk often bin sent tiff when it comes to migrants. we're talking about a billion dollar plus, billions of dollars in business for the cartel, they're responding as well to incentives. congressman gonzales what do you expect on this trip to texas? >> i'm excited to host leader mccarthy and our colleagues. texas is on fire and at the forefront of it. a lot of coverage is happening in the rio grande valley and the del rio sector because their numbers are through the roof. this is what is happening. because the sectors are overcapacity, there are two flights a day go from mcallen to el paso with migrants. each one of the flights hold 135 migrants. that is 270 migrants el paso is getting per day. what is happening this crisis is expanding. i think it is important we're in el paso. we see exactly first-hand what is occurring, hear directly from those boots on the ground how we can best help them. will: is this one of the ways your states can help solve this crisis? both of your states, louisiana, texas, have joined a total of 11 states that are looking at legal efforts to address this with the biden administration, to pick up trump era policies dropped. 11 states looking to sue federal government over what is happening at border. congressman higgins, is this a way to seek resolution? >> we have to try to encourage our executive branch, led of course by president biden. we have to try to get them to listen, to acknowledge what is going on. we're seeing 6,000 family units a day. it had been down to about 1000. the crisis at the border, we had it pretty much under control. it was essentially a well-managed threat. but it has very quickly based upon biden's policies and his directions to law enforcement on our southern border it has gone to absolute disaster, certainly a crisis, it endangers our republic. the numbers are shocking. we had over 100,000 crossings in february. that is the highest number of crossings in february in seven years. will: right. >> my sources tell me we're looking at 150, 150,000 illegal crossings per month for the next three months this is what the cartels have prepped for. it is very important to watch what the cartels are doing through the southern pipeline. they're trafficking humans and drugs. they're very organized. and quite visible. so, so intelligence sources advise that the cartels are piping that kind of numbers, as much as two million this year. will: quickly, congressman gonzalez, we're almost out of time, the numbers, as stark as they are, the numbers where they're headed that is what is really frightening, the numbers going up over the coming months. is there anything that can be done at this point to slow or stop had migration? >> this is a direct result of the biden administration failing to act. my district is 800 miles of border. we're very compassionate. immigration is not a new issue what is happening the near number made it so difficult on these communities. it is up to the biden administration to act. they have to respond. i urge, i'm excited kevin mccarthy is coming to texas. i would love to host speaker pelosi, come on down, see first-hand what is happening on the border, but we have to act immediately because i suspect things are going to get worse before they get better. will: congressman gonzales, congressman higgins we look forward to hearing about your trip when you return. thank you for your time. take care. >> yes, sir. pete: wow, 150 for three months. incredible number. will: and going up. pete: and going up. turning now to some extreme weather as you mentioned earlier, northwest texas battered by multiple tornadoes yesterday. at least six twisters were reported throughout the panhandle n colorado 2000 flights are canceled at denver airport. parts of the state slammed by massive winter storms. rick: muth joins us with the latest forecast. rick?

>> oh, i certainly do. you know it is not a sin being targeted by china's ministry of state security as swalwell was. if that there would be a sin, there would be nobody left in congress. what is a sin here is swalwell is not talking about the relationship which suggests swalwell has something to hide which suggests china has leverage over him. he shouldn't sit on the homeland security committee, he shouldn't even be in congress. pete. will: you're familiar with klein, you spoke about china for quite some time. the fascinating thing, you said everyone is tarp guested by china. tell us about that. how would you like to have seen swalwell respond? you say he should be talking about it, what should he be saying? >> first of all he should discuss his entire relationship with christine fang, suspected state of ministry security agent f he say, i had sex with her, so what? okay, that means china doesn't have leverage over him anymore. but he is not even willing to talk about any of the aspects of his relationship with her. we have seen all of those videos of swalwell on camera saying no, i'm not talking. so, that is really troubling. and for nancy pelosi to say, look, i have no concerns at all means that we should have concerns about her stewardship of america's sue credits. secrets. >> for people saying this is no big deal, tell us about the role of the intel committee, why having someone like swalwell who may very well be compromised on there would be a big problem? >> it's a big problem because in is where our intelligence agencies go and talk in private, in camera. so cheerly, important secrets are being divulged to members of the committee this is oversight. this is congress' oversight of the intelligence community. so obviously china wants to know what is going on and now they have goat someone who looks like they have got some leverage over. we should remember that swalwell's family had contact, continued contact with christine fang up until last year. this is after the 2015 fbi briefing of the congressman, that she might be an intelligence agent for china this is just really troubling. pete: nancy pelosi not concerned because eric swalwell is loyal lieutenant for her. gordon, thank you very much for your time. >> thank you. pete: new threat to higher education coming from google. their program could lets you bypass college and join their workforce. the "kurt the cyberguy" breaks down the potential game-changer next. just remember my motto. if you ain't first... you're last! woo-hoo! why choose proven quality sleep from sleep number?

well, guess what? they answered it. so they have come up with the career certifications with no degree, no experience necessary. you can sign up for these for about $240. most of them last about six months. and then after that, they teamed up with 130 plus employers that guaranteed to hire people coming out of this program and the jobs aren't bad. we're talking about a job like a project manager in technology for $93,000 a year on average. $75,000 if you want to figure out how to deal with user, user experience design, user interface that we use on all of our devices. it, really a smart idea on their part because at the end of the day, where does, what's it mean for google. they look like the hero because they're coming out with, i mean, really a great pipeline for jobs for the millions of people who are currently unemployed. but really it is ching ching of the whole job search feature that is going on at their website. we'll think of google for jobs a lot, lot more. but it is, they have got some awe true is tick stuff going on here. we have statement from google ceo sundar pichai, saying we have a chance to make the economy more inclusive and equitable f you want to see what the jobs are, sign up for my news lear. the cyberguy.com. we did a big write up. it is there for the taking. if you never thought working in this arena, this might be it, this might be your call. jedediah: kurt, we have been looking for something like this. i think it has great potential. thanks for being with us today. california's governor admits to making mistakes but believes it hartley justifies being recalled. of course. gavin newsom at the top of the hour. ♪. ♪ limu emu & doug ♪ hey limu!

our country but stopping short of course of calling it a crisis. will: griff jenkins is live in mcallen, texas with an exclusive report. good morning, griff. pete: pete, jed, good morning. we're right here at ground zero for biden's border crisis in being mcallen, texas, in the rio grande valley. we're getting signs that the from the administration they need to do something. dhs leader alejandro mayorkas says the border patrol facility is no place for children. he is directing fema to get involved to house an receive the record number of children crossing our southern border. they will help hhs in their facilities. now remember just last month they opened up the facility in donna, texas, along with one in the springs. donna one is not too far from where we are right now, half an hour peace drive. cbs is reporting according to a lawyer they interviewed that went inside of there, that facility is now 729% over its capacity. it was designed for 250 under covid restrictions. they have more than 1800. the total number of children we know cpb has in their custody is in excess of 8100. just an unbelievable, telling point of just a problem. remember the children are only one part of it. now i want to bring you sort of full context. we talked about it a little bit yesterday. that is the surge of migrants coming across the border creates a real opportunity for cartels to do what they do best. that is move narcotics into our country. just on thursday, the dea making a massive bust. we had an opportunity yesterday to talk with the dea special agent in charge here in mack allen, richard sanchez. he showed me the 378-pounds of marijuana, 1 1/2 pounds of methaphetamine and 89-pounds of cocaine they seized thursday right here in mack allen. here is what agent sanchez had to say about it. >> drug trafficking organizations are going to exploit all means necessary. they see an opportunity to take advantage of the situation, they will. and, evidently that is it going to occur during this time frame as well. reporter: and, just in a span of four-days cpb tweeted that they have seized 1800-pounds of total narcotics just in this sector. agent sanchez says, by the way, their seizing of those drugs shows you sends a message south of border, while they keep coming they will be waiting for them right here. pete, will, jed. pete: griff, great work down there. i have couldn't help but see on the instagram feed as well, you have an interesting video of ladders. the ways which people are attempting to cross the border. we have video of it as well. explain what you encountered, the different ways in which people are coming across. reporter: absolutely. so the ladder video which we can show you is just stockpile that the migrants have used. we get a little daylight in the next hour. they hide those ladders. bring the ladders across the river. stash them in the woods. bring them up to the levy wall. prop them up, put them over. but on the other side, you see broken ladder pieces where they failed to do it. all they have to do is scale the levee and turn loose into the community here in mack allen. will: griff, i appreciate the report following conversation we had yesterday. this opportunity it represents for the cartel. i tried back of the envelope what this human trafficking business means to the cartel. i know you have some numbers. but it is not just the billions in human trafficking that they're making dollars on, as you laid out. it is also available mules to bring their primary business, drug trafficking into this country as well, right? reporter: that is exactly right, will. you hit the nail on the head. if you spend time with officials they will explain it to you. it is in this case the rgv sector we showed you yesterday their traffic is up 177%. well we should then assume that business for the cartels are up 177%. for example, of the 19430 migrants we told you about in the last 24 hours apprehended. $1200 to move everyone, that is in excess of $100 million when you look at adding the narcotics we showed you along with the number of humans. that just means that ultimately, at the end of the day, biden's border surge is good for business for the bad guys, on the other side of the border. will: really good reporting. jedediah: griff, we have want to thank you so much for everything you're doing on the ground. it is impossible to get a sense what is going on without having the presence. we'll check back with you throughout the show today. clearly a crisis going on there. thanks so much, griff. you look at the situation, there is reluctance to use the word crisis. obviously fema is involved. this is without question a crisis. i think a lot of that reluctance, if you name it a crisis you will have to acknowledge that a crisis did in fact happen on your watch. that would be the watch of the biden administration. you would also, there would be some urgency to resolve it, if you were to call it what it is. you cannot deny the images. there is something very different with someone on the ground, showing footage, interviewing people in the border towns that are affected. this is what many in media refuse to do, you have to do to disclose how inhumane the situation is right now. will, you brought this up earlier, representative john katko, house homeland security committee referenced this, the biden administration what they had to say with respect to people marks the involvement of fema, what the implications of that involvement are. let's look at it, what the implications are. >> by doing that they're admitting there is a crisis even though they won't say it, there is absolutely a crisis. think about it, fema is dealing with the first nationwide state of emergency ever in the history of the agency, that being the pandemic. they're in charge of distributing vaccines and in charge of personal protective equipment, all the things related to the pandemic. this order sent out by health and human services a few minutes ago, mandating that fema take away the precious resources to deal with what is going on at the border, what is going on at the border, that crisis was created by biden's executive order. there is no doubt disorder at the border was by executive order. pete: disorder at the border by executive order. it makes a lot of sense. you don't need a fox news alert to point out the fact if you don't want to enforce the rule of law you will get more law breaking. you stop building the wall. you effective live provide a border policy. get all the things that work were deterrents for more illegal crossings. you allow for sanctuary cities. give benefits. covid bill, lots in there for illegal immigrants as well. you create every single reason and incentive for people to come here. it's a crisis. it is a crisis nobody, lands fully in the lap of the biden administration. whether they will actually acknowledge it, we'll see. don't hold your breath. here is another story from the state of california, as we talked about, gavin newsom's recall effort. number of signatures directed topped two million, north of two million. they need 15, 1.5 million valid signatures. they're going over the top to make sure they're valid to trigger a recall election. gavin newsom took to the radio on friday, kind of talking about the reasons why he thinks he is being recalled. he says a portion of which he acknowledges is that fancy dinner at the french laundry. here is gavin newsom. >> that are those things you can never get back, i owned up to that. no one hid from that. that was a mistake. crystal clear. pete: at least he said it was a mistake, will, i don't know. is that enough. will: no one would call it anything else. i don't know what he would call it a mistake. he thinks attacks on him, recall effort on him is more than his response to covid. it just might be, but make no mistake, this is largely about what has happened and his governance over the past year. here, listen to him suggesting it is about much more than that. >> this thing started before the pandemic. look at the petitions on the streets and so, don't take my word for it. take the partners word for it. it is about immigration. it is about our health care policies. it is about our criminal justice reform. it is about the diversity of the state. it is about our clean air, clean water programs. our environmental strategies. they were crystal clear what this was about. jedediah: how ridiculous. don't recall me because the other guy or gal doesn't care about your health care. desperation just stink. i have a lot of friends that live in los angeles. a lot of them lean left. they have had it with him in large part, most of it was because of the covid response. they are completely disgusted. they own businesses themselves. tired of the leadership. trying to figure out how to put food on the table for their families for so long. this is part of covid, his response, his out of touch nature this pivot he has, oh, everyone else doesn't really care about you, i'm the only one you have to keep me in power is utterly ridiculous. pete: he said you doesn't like the policies i'm pursuing because you don't like of the impact had on your quality of life. ultimately, rampant illegal immigration, state run health care, letting criminals out of jail, code for criminal justice reform, environmental policies which added regulations and burdens on businesses making it harder to operate, so you can fight the weather, if you don't love that, then your recall against me is illegitimate. but covid, will, became the ultimate quality of life indicator. they didn't like the quality of life in california. even though the weather amazing, it should be the place to be, he crushed it. covid puts that all on hyperspeed. you can't go out to eat because of his overreaction. look at florida we did with jillian mele. he can't figure that out. will: you can translate what he said like this. look, they don't like i handle covid, but look, they have didn't how i was handling things before anyway. exactly, governor. the biggest indictment against governor gavin newsom is not the recall effort, the biggest indictment, people are leaving your state this moving away from your policies. they're voting with their. pete: pete he has nice hair though. will: turning to additional headlines, fox news alert, riots breaking out across the country as thousands of people hit the streets to mark one year since breonna taylor's death. seattle police used pepper spray on crowds and arrested 13 people including assault an officer. in los angeles demonstrators were smashing the hood of a police cruiser. the car accelerated reportedly ran over protesters. in louisville, police delayed an unlawful assembly after armed protesters blocked a road and forced drivers to turn around. air travel is surging. tsa is reporting its highest number of of passenger screenings on friday since march 15th, 2020. over 1.3 million people boarded flights last, on friday. last april air travel hit a record low with just over 87,000 passengers. passengers on friday were still 20% lower than the number of passengers on the same day last year. anecdotally i noticed that on friday t was up. americans are waking up this morning with one less hour of sleep. daylight savings time overnight, springing clocks forward to give an extra hour of daylight t comes as a bipartisan group of lawmakers renewed calls to make daylight savings time permanent. daylight savings time started in 1908 as an effort to conserve fuel for candles in gas lameps. it might be a policy whose purpose has been accomplished. pete: now we're gaslighting people. will: candles are in good shape. we can retire the policy. jedediah: get rid of it. i blame rick. we should all actually blame rick because rick has endorsed this and i think it is one of the reasons it has been sustained. we have to get back to rick on that one. he has been a fan a long time. will: why? jedediah: i don't know. i think he likes the tradition of it. like a new season. i will let him explain for himself. will: i'm one for tradition but -- jedediah: has a pretty good defense but can't have it. will: i'm for can sell culture of this. can sell daylight savings. jedediah: i'm on board as well. the sunshine state under fire from "the

no one was capable of that, were they, senator? >> no. but i can tell you i've been traveling to florida. i got back on thursday. people tried to be safe. i watch people. they're wearing their masks. they're working to social distance. they're getting outside which all the experts say it is safer. we have great weather down here. we don't have the cold you have up north. so i think we're doing, i think we're doing a lot of good things down here. people are excited about getting the vaccine. i've been around a lot of people, so excited to get back outside. they have been inside, they waited for the vaccine. they have it. so it is, i think we're heading in the right direction in florida. schools are open. schools ought to be open across the country. businesses ought to be open. people ought to keep doing things safely. we know we haven't beaten this. it will be, when everybody gets a vaccine, everybody feels comfortable, it will be a great time for the entire country. will: florida has done a great job. that is obviously true but this is bigger than a florida story. this is the constant shifting of the standards and goals. bend the curve, because florida balanced interests as well, now it's a zero transmission rate requirement according to "the new york times." in line with that, senator, these constantly moving standards, shifting lines, let me give you this, this is from the university of california san francisco professor saying in "usa today," it is safe to be outdoors. what we really want to do here, have warm, open, air. wow. that is shocking, governor. a, that is shocking because we already knew that. b, it would seem to defy what we heard from "the new york times" it is concerning that floridians are on the beach out with spring break. >> we have to open the country, open our schools. get schools open. get people outside. you can do some things outside. we have great weather in florida. they have great weather in california. i don't know why governor newsom knows how to open his state like what we've done in florida and some other states in the south. hopefully that is what will happen. we'll get the country back. i'm glad the last administration, the trump administration did "operation warp speed" so we can get the vaccine out. people are so excited when they get the vaccine. they feel so much safer now. will: senator, i want to end with this, almost 2 trillion-dollar covid relief bill has been passed in congress. but some estimates, ten% or less of total relief bill are going to actually fighting covid-19. how should we be thinking about this, approaching this entirely massive stimulus bill? >> well it is pretty frustrating. republicans wanted to do a target the bill, help people that lost their jobs. get the businesses going. have plenty of vaccine and keep people safe through the testing. what this is a whole bunch of liberal priorities. giving money to inmates. giving money to public broadcasting, national endowment to the arts. paid leave only for federal workers this doesn't make sense. we gave, after we have given the states over $400 billion, we can't to give them another $36 billion. i asked governors, mayors, say other than what is covid response costs, don't take the money. we got, we got close to $30 trillion in debt. we have got to all come together to figure out how we live fiscally responsible. will: let us know how that request goes. governor officials turning down money. i will be excited to hear how that goes. we appreciate the call for fiscal responsibility. appreciate your time this morning. >> have a good day. will: you too. the passion of the christ remains one of the most controversial interpretations of the story of jesus christ. a new "fox nation" special is putting the film's significance in perspective. before discovering nexium 24hr to treat her frequent heartburn, marie could only imagine enjoying freshly squeezed orange juice. now no fruit is forbidden. nexium 24hr stops acid before it starts for all-day, all-night protection. can you imagine 24 hours without heartburn?

black lives matter criticizes the protests. reporter: good morning to you guys. d.c. parents are speaking out, demanding local schools reopen. as many d.c. students are still out of a classroom a year into the pandemic. on saturday as you mentioned dozens of people protesting at the heart of the nation's capital. parents said follow the science. in person learn something essential. eastern some students spoke out telling us about their personal struggle. >> i miss that i don't get to learn as much because at home there are more distractions than at school. reporter: d.c.'s brac lives matter twitter account was not thrilled with the protest. those tweeting may have had better access to medical care and transportation compared to other d.c. students. new report out from the right-leaning american enterprise institute says remote learning is severely hurting america's kids. school closures could negatively impact a child's future earning potential. students are likely to face more mental health issues. the biden administration will host pa summit later on this month to focus on its universities to reopen schools. back to you. >> thank you so much, mark. mike huckabee, fox news contributor, former arkansas positive to weigh in on all of this. welcome to the show. great to have you here as always. i'm sure you heard about school reopenings and how parents and students in d.c., we can add new york, a bunch of cities to the mix, are rallying. what do you make of that statement on black lives matter statement on twitter essentially opposing that measure for reasons they would describe? >> about what i would expect it. black lives matter doesn't represent the needs of the students at all. let me give you an example a lot of people in america that live in poverty, the only meals they get are the breakfast and lunch meals in their school. they go home and food deprived. they don't have any meals at home that happens a lot more than people would understand. that happens in my state. people on the school breakfast, school lunch program, this is note just about their education. it certainly is that. they're being deprived of something, parents, all the taxpayers are paying for but it also makes it very difficult for them to have nutrition. when the black lives matter people talk about health care, do you realize a lot of children, the best health care they get is through the school nurse? that is where they get their hearing checked? that is where they get their vision checked. they don't have access to great health care except through their school. the school is far more than just the books but it is that. they're being deprived of it. with all the money that the government is throwing, supposedly at covid, you could give every child in america enough money to go to his or her choice for private or parochial school and say, if you're not going to educate the kids with public school money, then let's send them to a private school but let's give them a fighting chance, for heaven's sakes. pete: governor, serious question, the political arm of black lives matter, all the money that has been spent, the logo from the twitter account there says defund the police. they are trying to keep the schools closed there. they say it is racist. what accomplishments would you say they would claim today? >> i'm not sure they could. if you look at their website. now they changed a lot of their website. they took off their more i guess offensive parts, talked about they were really unapologetically a marxist organization. they wanted to destroy the nuclear family. that is on their wish site. that is what they advocate. this is not an organization about racial justice this is an organization about the most radical parts of the leftist agenda. when you look how many millions, $90 million, where did it go? they can't show one thing where they fed a child, where they educated a child, where they provided attorneys for people who they thought maybe were being hassled by the system. this is money, it's a scam. it is an incredible scam. and it is sad that people have given their money. it is really disgusting a lot of big corporations have shelled out big money so that black lives matter could take their funds and basically destroy the very capitalist system that made the money in the first place. will: going on one

rescue plan could send tax collectors after members of the gig economy starting next year. think uber drivers or etsy shops. a tax change in the bill would require those companies to report a worker's income to the irs if they make more than $600 a year, a drastic decrease from the current $20,000 threshold. here to break it all down, opinion editor for the foundation for economic education brad palumbo. you saw this was concerning. another group of people affected by this, airbnb hosts. they have become incredibly important in the last year or two. talk about the implications of changing this rule to apply to 20,000 plus to now just $600 plus. >> yeah, absolutely. democrats put this in the bill. it is not an official tax increase or increase in tax liability. it is sneakier than that. it is an enforcement crackdown. reporting crack down that will have the practical effect of squeezing $8.4 billion out of low income uber drivers and gig economy workers over the coming years to the tune of a billion dollars in new revenue a year. i just think the timing here couldn't be worse. these uber drivers, many of whom had a very rough year, gig economy workers with the lockdowns and covid, now they could have unexpected tax bills and irs fines. i think that is is real unfortunate outcome here. jedediah: you talked about the tax revenue. tax revenue from the big workers 8.4 billion through fiscal year 2031. do you think though, brad, when i saw this, i don't think people know about it. do you think a lot of people who have used this side hustle, whether they're on etsy, whatever they're doing, making $600 here,hundred dollars are do you think they're aware the irs is coming after them. >> they are not. it will be a ugly wake-up call when they owe taxes and get a big letter from the irs. i read letters from trade groups and it could be ruinous for workers around get a tax bill, don't have the spare change to pay it off and stuck with fines to make it a bigger problem. what i find objectionable they're doing this to offset revenue for the blowout bill instead of touching political priorities. they have a billion dollars for racial justice programs for farmers. even "politifact" pointed out 90% of biden's 1.9 trillion bill is not directly related to covid. i think they should address all of that before squeezing more out of workers. jedediah: yeah. these are people in many cases have lost a job. and now said, okay we can go to etsy, do this to pull money together. now they will be punished for that it seems. unbelievable. brad, thank you for

come from? tell us about the honor project? >> it really happened completely by chance. i visit my grandfather who is buried at arlington cemetery who was a veteran of three wars, world war ii, rea an vietnam every year. when i went to visit arlington cemetery in 2020 i knew it would be different. there were no ceremonies. there was no fanfare. there were no regular americans who were allowed to access the cemetery. only allowed in if you had a family pass. as i honestly thought a few friends of mine who were veterans, who i knew had fellow servicemembers buried in arlington. i sent out a tweet, i offered to visit and photograph their graves on their behalf. and after a few responses i thought i would go home but a few, half an hour? i had dozens of replies and people from all across the country asking to have graves visited and photographed. i spent about six hours in the cemetery trying to get to as many as i could. i was only able to get to 60. arlington is a big place. i hope this year we'll be able to visit every request that comes in. i'm so grateful to ryan and the travis manion foundation to help us do that. pete: supercool. ryan, you run a foundation dedicated to legacy and honoring. what does it mean to you? >> we're so grateful to emily bringing us this concept, this idea. really for us, every year on memorial day our message is the same. it is learn their

immigrants but stopping short of calling it a crisis. jedediah: griff jenkins is live in mcallen, texas. >> reporter: good morning, that's right. for the first time, the administration is acknowledging in part the problem they've got here on this border. dhs secretary alejandro mayorkas ordering fema to get involved with the unprecedented number of children coming across our border, helping hhs to house these children. mayorkas saying that the border patrol facility is no place for a child. last month the child facilities started to open up, first in ca caruso, springs near laredo, and according to a lawyer that was inside that facility, they are now 729% over capacity. they built the donna facility to hold 250 children under code restrictions, now they've got some 1800 reportedly in there since the beginning of march. representative john katko, the ranking republican on the house homeland security committee, said that this is very telling. listen. >> by doing that, they're admitting that there is a cry is the even though that he won't say it. there's no doubt. now they're peeling away precious resources from fema, and american citizens who need to get -- have their vaccines and everything, they're going to suffer because of the lack of attention because fema's distracted now. this is outrageous. >> reporter: now, for a little on the ground perspective, we are here in mission, texas, where we were yesterday, and you cannot really tell because it's dark, but just about a mile, mile and a half where with i am, the rio grande where the migrants cross, most of them surrender to border patrol because they know they'll be put on buses and released. but the ones that don't come over this berm, and they come right down here and go into this bar right here. this is cabrera's bar, he's found migrants sleeping here almost every morning and that actually a few months ago actually a woman crossed and gave birth right here in the parking lot. we sat down at a disable here and talked about -- at a table here and talked about what he's seeing firsthand. listen. >> before trump came in, it stopped for a while, really for three years. now that they've changed the policy, they've started coming down here in droves. >> reporter: now, the border patrol chief in this area, brian hastings, was tweeting yesterday that in the last two weeks in just this sector alone they've apprehended nearly 24,000 migrants. jed, pete, will? pete: griff, huge numbers, and you brought the personal connection. on the border, the bar, showing it to people. when you talk to border agents, what is the one thing they're missing the most? what piece of policy or action are they clamoring for that they don't have right now? >> reporter: they're clamoring for the administration to acknowledge the problem on hand, to get politics out of it and to try and do something after the day one executive orders that president biden issues undoing many of the trump orders not just ending wall construction, but also ending the remain in mexico. and the other thing cumulatively the border patrol agents believe has sent the green light signal for the migrants to come, and the agents tell me the cartels are manipulating the message from the biden administration and telling them in that northern triangle of honduras, guatemala and el salvador that, hey, the administration wants you to come, go, go, go, and what do they do? they get them up to the border and charge them in many cases $1200, so they're making money off of it. will: griff jenkins, thank you so much. throughout the morning griff has shown us pictures of migrants crossing, he's shown us drug cartel seizures throughout the morning. these drug cartels which are coordinating this massive human migration are end benefiting in the billions, hundreds of millions, up to billions of dollars in profit in moving people across the border but also using those people as drug mules to help aid in their primary business of drug smuggling. just amazing reports, amazing detail coming from griff jenkins along the texas border. earlier i spoke to congressman clay higgins and congressman tony gonzalez who are taking trips tomorrow to the border to see just what griff is seeing, put eyes on the problem and help understand it in order to solve it. here's what they had to say about their upcoming trip. >> yeah, this is a direct result of the biden administration's failure to act. look, my district's 800 miles of border. immigration is not a new issue, but what is happening is the sheer number has made it so difficult on these communities. >> we're looking at 150,000 illegal crossings per month for the next three months. this is what the cartels have prepped for. it's very important to watch what the cartels are doing through the southern pipeline. they're trafficking humans and drugs. they're very organized and quite visible. jedediah: we're now going to bring in lara trump, senior adviser for the trump 2020 campaign, to weigh in on this and more. lara, obviously, there is a crisis at the border. centers operating at 729% capacity is not a good situation. you now have drug cartels to stand to benefit from the situation, and the biden administration -- the campaign, actually, had said we will be a more humane approach to immigration. this doesn't look terribly humane to me. your thoughts. >> well, it's completely inhumane. it's really disturbing to see. don't forget, it was joe biden who stood on stage and raised his hand and said free health care for illegal immigrants and made that a very known platform. i think the reality is you want to do the most humane thing, that is never to have these folks come to our southern board. my goodness, a quarter of the women who come are sexually assaulted on their way to america. it is a treacherous, dangerous journey. children absolutely should never take that journey, but yet we see these facilities well, well over capacity because the signal from the biden administration has been we'll be the opposite of the trump administration that was very clear under president donald trump that we did not allow for people to come illegally into america. there was a process by which every single person should go through, and that was made very clear by president donald trump. we want immigrants in america, but we want them to come legally. and now with the opposite approach here, it is really awful and terrifying to see how many folks have just flooded our southern border. the border patrol says that they are overrun,ning they cannot handle it. it is a crisis, yet i don't think we'll hear much from the biden administration. i don't think we'll hear much from the biden white house. and as we know, we won't hear much from joe biden at all. it's really sad to see. >> it is. sometimes the rule of law, the application of it, is the most humane thing because ultimately the people that come through the right way are treated the way they ought, and people who try to make that dangerous journey are discourage ld from doing so. i've got to ask a personal question to you, lara, because your father-in-law was at mar-a-lago recently and popped in at an event that they weren't expecting him to talk at, and here's part of what he said. listen. >> i want to tell you lara has been so incredible. i don't know, are you running for the senate? [cheers and applause] pete: i hear she's going to run. is that what you hear? [laughter] >> well, that was not planned, just for everyone's information. my father-in-law saw we were having a great event for an organization i've supported a long time, the largest cage-free, no-kill shelter for dogs in the united states, really incredible. so he popped in. i don't think he had planned any remarks, and then he said that. look, i have no announcement to make. it is something that i've been considering and taking very seriously. i grew up in north carolina, it is my home and always will be. my entire family still lives in the state, and it would be an honor to represent the people of north carolina. we saw with senator richard burr that he has not represented the values of north carolinians very well. we'll see what happens. i don't have any announcements this morning. will: you're not the only one apparently possibly considering a future in politics. meghan markle, the duchess of sussex, prince harry's wife, apparently is considering coming back to the u.s. and running for office. there are some conversations, she's potentially reaching out to democrats looking at a political future. see what your thoughts might be about that, lara. >> well, i would tell her from experience if she thought that she got a lot of scrutiny from that oprah interview, get ready, because it is way bigger than that when you get involved in politics. i'm always a champion for more women to get involved, so if that's something she wants to do, absolutely, have at it. she should have an opportunity to do that. but i think she would get a ruled awakening by how much -- rude awakening by how much incoming she would have coming her way. curious to see what happens with her. will: all right. we all will be. as we will be curious to see what your future holds as well. thanks so much for your time. >> thanks, guys. will: attorney turning now to your headlines, thousands of people hit the streets to mark one year since breonna taylor's death. in seating 13 people were arrested -- in seattle, 13 people were arrested. in los angeles, demonstrators were seen smashing the hood of a police cruiser. and in louisville, police declared unlawful assembly after armed protesters blocked a road and forced drivers to turn around. boxing legend marvin hagler has died.

>> i don't know enough about it. i mean, i'm just, i'm letting the courts and, you know, the system take care of that because that wouldn't be, you know, my place to make that judgment. pete: but you think someone -- obviously, you believe somewhere someone should have made a better decision to protect your loved ones. >> yes with, i definitely believe that, because they have a right just like anybody else on this earth to health care and, you know, that their life is just as precious as anyone else's despite their intellectual abilities. pete: absolutely. >> one doctor was even pushing me to sign off on a do not resuscitate when carolyn was -- she just entered the hospital and wasn't really severely sick yet, but they were projecting ahead if she got sick, you know, one doctor was trying to minimize her quality of life and pushed me to -- you know, i said you're going to do everything you can to keep carolyn alive, and i kind of picked up where she was going, and i was pretty upset. pete: as we should be. we remember the memory of carolyn and annabelle, and we appreciate you giving voice to them this morning on this terrible policy that took way too many lives. thank you all for telling your story. >> thank you. pete: up next, a florida amber alert sparking a new lead in the search for a missing teen last seen more than a year ago in tennessee. nancy grace on that next.

mom says, yeah. i believe he's carted this girl all a acolorado, new mexico, california, washington and credible information that he's keeping her drugged on lsd, marijuana, alcohol constantly so she can't get in touch with her mother, he can't get away. is she's got a sister about a 7 hours away down in florida at sebring. her home was just raided, all of her welcome toroian igs -- her electronics taken. i believe he's been in touch with her. he's an i.t. wizard. he's got cryptocurrency, he's off the grid. very hard to catch him. and if they can look at the sister's electronic devices, they may be able to find out where he is, what name he's under, how he's living. i think he's working freelance as an i.t. specialist. because of covid nobody really sees him when they hire him, and he goes in and out of grocery stores with a mask on, that's how he's getting away with the girl. jedediah: and her mother seems to be devastated, for good reasons. >> oh, devastated. jedediah: her mom actually sent a message to the missing daughter. let's take a listen. >> please know that nobody's angry. you are so loved. it's not your fault that you're in this situation, this is not her fault, and i need her to be okay. i need that. and i will do everything i can to make sure that she is. jedediah: nancy, this is painful to watch, and i want you to respond to that but also, quickly, for someone who isn't a crime expert, when i hear there have been repeated sightings, i instinct ily say why is it so hard to catch of this guy? if do you have any insight? >> yes, i do. we have information this guy is using fake teeth. he just bought hair dye. he is disguising himself and his daughter, not using his cell phone, probably using a burner phone. he's got his daughter drugged up so she can't call mom, and he is changing his appearance. i just noticed he was spotted, we believe, in a burned-out looking orange vw bus, 1971, doesn't have a windshield. how can nobody catch that? but he's removed the license plate. why? because i think he knows license grabbers can grab the license and trace it back to him. i believe he's somewhere burning rubber, as much as a vw can, between panhandle and sebring, florida. that would be with i-10 going west. that's where i think he is. he's a master of disguise. i bet he's watching us right now and me giving this information, you know, what we can do is use that information for everybody out there, truckers, people in your vehicles, look for this guy and this girl because her life is in danger. she managed to get one message -- i almost hate to tell you, jedediah, she got in touch with a friend over a year saying she's having suicidal ideations and she wants to hurt herself. i really think time is of the essence. jedediah: truly, our hearts go out to her mother. i cannot imagine. we're going to continue to follow this story, nancy, for future developments. you are to host america's most wanted overtime streaming at 10 p.m. eastern tomorrow on fox nation. remember, fox nation is members-only streaming service, exclusive access to original continue tent with your -- content with your favorite personalities. tomorrow, 10 p.m. thank you, nancy. >> thank you. jedediah: and coming up, the biden administration finally addressing the surge of migrants rushing our border but stopped short of calling it what it is, which is a crisis. former acting dhs secretary chad wolf joins us live next on that. t lead you?

>> well, it's devastating. obviously, the border wall system needs to be completed. we had over 500 miles of that border wall system completed by the end of the trump administration. it's an effective denial for the border patrol agents down on the border. every one of those agents have said they needed that type of border wall system, and so it's just a real shame that the biden administration stopped construction because at the end of the day, that's going to help secure the border more than almost anything else that we can do. so it's a real concern. jedediah: you know, chad, you're talking about securing the border, the border wall, all important points. people looking at these images though are saying what do we do about all these people? they're here now, right? we can talk about who's responsible, what's the cause, but regardless, they are here. and 700 plus percent capacity in some of these centers is just not a tenable situation. so what do we do? >> yeah. well, i think overnight we heard that dhs is now sending fema down to the border. so we send fema into areas which are disaster-stricken areas so, obviously, this is a crisis. this continues to be a crisis. not only the number of children coming over, but also the number of family units coming over. and so you have to care for each of those populations. but at the end of the day, this is also about the policies and the type of messaging that is going out from the administration continuing to fuel this crisis. so it's okay to send individuals down there to care for these individuals or to construct facilities to care for these populations, but you have to send the signal that this has to stop. that's what i'm most concerned, is where does this go over the next several months. i see this getting worse and not better over the long term. pete: chad, you can play the what if it were trump game a bit too often, but in this particular case, those images of that overpass, the temporary processing center of people penned in under an overpass outdoors, presumably no shower -- all of those things. if this were the trump administration when you were the acting dhs secretary the, you can imagine the reaction. what should the be to this? >> well, you absolutely right. back in 2019 where we had a similar crisis not of our own making, i might add, we had any number of media down there, congressional a, members of congress just telling us how bad we were doing because we were holding individuals in the same facilities, the same numbers that we see today. so that's disappointing. but there are tools on, you know, the current administration can use. title 4 2k. they have chosen not -- 42. they have chosen not to use that a for minors coming across. the biden administration today, if you are a minor from mexico, they will turn you around, but if you're from the northern triang. , they will not -- triangle, they will not turn you around. that sends a signal to traffickers and others. there's a number of tools they can use, anywhere from restarting mpp, title 42, some of our international agreements, there are things that they can do to stop this summer over the next several months. will: chad, i want to follow up on that, you mentioned you fearing this is going to get worse. the trends suggest that you're right, it will get worse in the coming months. you also called it a policy-driven crisis. so these tools you're talking about, if they're put into place, we believe we could turn away the tide, we could stop this crisis from metastasizing? >> absolutely. we saw this in 2019. we saw a surge of family units and a surge of minors, same thing that we're seeing today. we asked congress for certain authorities. that never materialized, so we had to put in policies and procedures that the administration, the executive branch can do, things like the migrant protection protocols and the remain in mexico program. then we utilized title 4during a covid -- 42 during a covid pandemic. so there are tools the biden administration can do. in many cases, they stopped using it come january 20th of this year. i guess the big question is how did they let it get to this point. they knew that they were going to have a surge. the numbers showed that. and so the question is why are they responding in the way that they are now. jedediah: chad wolf, thank you very much for joining us. appreciate it. >> thank you. jedediah: and we head now to some extreme weather. multiple tornadoes touched down in texas. at least six twisters were reported throughout the panhandle between lubbock if amarillo, downing power lines and damaging at least one home. no one was hurt. pete: meanwhile, a massive winter storm shams colorado -- slams colorado. more than 2,000 flights cancel out of denver. the heaviest snow is expected to fall today. some areas could see up to 4 feet. whoa. will: rick reichmuth is tracking it all. good morning, rick. rick: yeah, this is the time of year when you get these kinds of storms across colorado. you can see a lot of what's happening. you see the green here? that's where there's warmer air and the colder air behind it, you see this in the spring, that's why we get these severe storms. i think we're going to see less of it today, but we still have the snowy side of the storm and the rainy side of the storm including blizzard warning where you see that darker red across parts of nebraska, into south dakota and wyoming. that's where we're going to see the brunt of the wind of this storm. but we still have a lot of rain with this, you see the rainy side in terms of parts of nebraska, stretching into areas of iowa which will eventually see some snow as well and right now very heavy snow from the denver area up towards cheyenne and everywhere in between, fort collins. to the higher elevations, places likes he's park, we're probably going to see maybe around 4 feet of snow by the time this is done. throughout the day today, overnight today and across parts of iowa and minnesota, and eventually talking about a little bit of an ice storm as well. i'll point out we have another storm that comes in for tuesday, wednesday across participants of the southwest and temperatures right there remain very cool for much of this coming week as well. all right, guys back to you. will: rick, thanks so much. jedediah, i'm going to tell you one of the greatest country songs of all time, amarillo by morning.

good morning, will, pete and jed. you're looking at me through a wall, the walls put in place in the trump era to stop the migration, high numbers of illegal crossings and of course narcotics and it's holes like this in the wall that make it easier for those car l -- cartels push drugs through it. here on thursday, a major drug bust, some 378 pounds of marijuana seized, 16 and-a-half pounds of methamphetamine, 89 pounds of cocaine seized, a part of the opportunity the migrant numbers crossing give the cartels to push narcotics through. we spoke with a special agent in charge with the dea, richard sanchez, here is some of what he told us. >> cartels are not going to stop. we're not going to stop either. what they need to know is we're here, we're not going away. we'll continue to do our job, like we took an oath to do and promised to do. >> reporter: in a span of four days, agents seized over 1,800 pounds of total narcotics. meanwhile, on the migrant numbers, the unaccompanied minor crisis, alejandro mayorkas ordering fema to get involved and help hhs house, transport and receive the high number of children. mayorkas for the first time noting in a statement, quote, record numbers coming across and here where we are, just about a half hour away in donna, the texas, the facility is up 729%. they created capacity for 250 under covid rules, they have you now over 1800. finally, let me just show you a little bit away from where i'm standing, you will see a pile of ladders. down there, there are these ladders that the migrants make. they bring it across the river. they stash it in a hiding along the tree line and they bring it up to the wall and try to climb over it. these are the migrants that do not want to be caught or the ones moving contraband, broken ladders on the other side where they've tried but obviously the pile of ladders just a little bit of a backyard perhaps to be used for kindling at some point for the owner of that house. at the end of the day, it is certainly a situation that we have tried to be on the ground to show you. you can see it on twitter, it's all over the place, the border patrol agents, the chiefs, from texas to california, showing

thinks. what's stark to me is, ultimately you've got cartels trafficking drugs and people, illegally, all the way up to our border and surrendering that product in people to our government officials on the border, border patrol agents who are effectively processing them and releasing then in the united states. that's the pipeline right now and it's open season for it. >> reporter: it is. and you know, pete, agent sanchez from the dea was explaining to me that during covid, because the restrictions were so strong in the first part of 2020, and that of course is under the trump administration, you had a buildup of narcotics and he said it was an anomaly because what we showed you which was marijuana, methamphetamine and cocaine, it was an anominally to see a seizure with all three of the drugs. because they're overwhelming officials with the number of people, they're also moving the drugs that have been stockpiled for months on that side of the border and they see an opportunity to move the quantities they've got sitting over there to get into the united states and they're not stopping here in texas. they're headed to the interior of the u.s. will: i asked you this earlier off camera, we talk about the integral role that the cartels play in supply and demand when it comes to drugs and human trafficking, which cartels in your area are profiting the most? >> reporter: right here across from where we are in mcalen texas, it is dominate for years by the gulf cartel and zetta cartel, very violent, very dangerous. in the beginning of last week we took you into the metamoras. in renosa, they say don't go there, the violence there is daily. will: really good stuff, once again. jedediah: we want to thank you so much for bringing this stuff to us on the ground. you're an expert on this issue, been bringing this to us for a long time. we'll continue to follow this story for a while. the drone is back. talk soon, griff. >> reporter: thank you. jedediah: this is just a horrible, horrible situation that's unfolding, the cartels are being incentiveized. you have horrific conditions. 729% plus capacity, that's not a sustainable situation. that's not a situation that should be encouraged. you're going to have conditions, wind up not being sanitary. we're still in the midst of a pandemic, last i checked. having this type of crowding, it's deeply unfair to people who made promises that we simply cannot keep, we cannot house this many people in these facilities and we talked a lot about the word crisis and why the current administration is refusing to acknowledge what it is. chad wolf, the former acting dhs secretary talked about that word, crisis, he said it's biden's fault and he said a lot more. listen. >> dhs is sending fema down to the border. we send fema into areas which are disaster stricken areas, so obviously this is a crisis, continues to be a crisis, not only the number of children coming owner but also the number of family units coming over. you have to care for each of the populations. this is also about the policies and type of messaging that is going out from the administration, continuing to fuel this crisis. so it's okay to send individuals down there to care for these individuals or to construct facilities to care for these populations, but you have to send the signal that this has to stop. pete: you used the phrase unfair. i think that's exactly right. it's unfair to every person that came to the country the right way, legally, who pays taxes and follows the laws and looks at what it is, which is border hopping, jumping in line in front of people and cartels profiting. when you don't address the law, you hurt americans with that policy. will: pressure is mounting for the calls for governor andrew cuomo of new york to resign. it's a story told in numbers. take a look at this. 135 new york state lawmakers are calling on cuomo to resign or step aside or be impeached. 86% of federal lawmakers from new york calling for the same. 83% of new york state senate want him to resign, step aside or be impeached and 80 plus lawmakers in new york have done the same. it is absolutely -- i don't know at this point, jedediah, how anyone can withstand the calls and the public pressure coming from his own point and in some cases his own staff to step down. jedediah: yeah. his own staff and stopped in many cases showing up for work. i think the point about it being bipartisan is absolutely critical. this is not a republican witch hunt. these are democrats and republicans coming out and condemning his behavior. a state senator who is a democrat said she experienced a culture of fear and toxic behavior with cuomo. check it out. >> i didn't experience the same sexual harassment or sexual assault experiences that a lot of the women who have come forward have discussed but i will say it is connected to what i did experience which is a culture of fear, a culture of toxic behavior where the governor and the people closest to him in the inner circle, not only consistent descend those around him but they berate them and they inject fear in a way that prevents people from doing their job and prevents new yorkers from receiving not only the best leadership from the governor and the governmental staff which should be to serve the people of new york but it prevents people from being able to enter a workplace and to be safe. pete: that state senator pointing out a culture of fear. we talked about the numbers as far as resigning and very few of those at least at this point have to do with his handling of the nursing homes where people were killed. now, will, a lot of us on the show pointed out the fact that talking about these allegations also distracts away from the nursing homes. the ap took the distraction game to the next level. that's the associated press, the news wire. here's the headline. they said top dems call on cuomo to resign amid harassment allegations. what does the article say? the escalating political crisis spawned impeachment inquiry in a democratic state and threatens to cast a cloud over president joe biden's early days in office. republicans seized on the scandal to try to distract from biden's success tackling the covid-19 pandemic and challenge his party's well-established advantage with female voters. will, republicans have seized an attempt to distract. will: the real story here isn't that andrew cuomo covered up nursing home deaths in new york state, nor that -- what are we up to? seven different harassment allegations against governor cuomo? that's not the story. the story is republicans have seized on this to distract from joe biden. there's your objective news source, the associated press, jedediah. jedediah: i would ask that writer, are democrats also trying to cast a cloud on the biden administration? because they're coming out too. there are democrats coming out and they're focused on andrew cuomo because he's deserving of that focus. are we all in this together? it's so ridiculous sometimes. we're going to turn to your headlines this hour. we're going to begin with a fox news alert. riots breaking out

miller meeks won her seat by six votes last november. now speaker pelosi is opening the door to potentially replacing her with a democrat. senator joni ernst said they won't stand for it. they this has been certified in iowa, it has been called for representative miller meeks. that sounds somewhat familiar. but in this situation, democrats are very open to looking into the results, looking into the votes cast and seeing if they can overturn the race. >> incredibly hypocritical, will, and miller meeks, congresswoman miller meeks, has been seated in congress. she won this election. it was certified by iowans and has most forward and now nancy pelosi, perhaps will overturn it and that is horribly unfair to the voters in the second district in iowa and we are pushing back. will: well, let's just name -- let's name the hypocrisy. when it was a presidential election, senator, when it was donald trump questioning the election results, the chorus in response was the election has been

>> there is some truth to what he's saying, certainly. the reality is that china is seeking economic, technological and military domination to be able to change the international order that has been in existence, particularly among like-minded democracies, since the end of world war ii. they want to form their own sphere of influence and under president xi they are working with incredible determine nailings and speed and urgency to -- determination and speed and urgency to achieve that end and they have made some progress towards that to be sure. i mean, they are the number one stealer of intellectual property in the world, so much so that they are able to reproduce capabilities that exist in other countries or are about to exist in other countries and make them their own. they also have a significant technological capability that they're developing on their own. they want to achieve that dominance in the world n don't have that but they want to you achieve it. the united states still has it. they're the second largest economy in the world to be sure. they want to achieve economic dominance but they've got head winds here bill -- i mean, pete. i mean, for example, their productivity before the pandemic was down 10% and the forecast is it will go down further. they've got mountains of debt like we have in the united states. but also their workforce is shrinking because their one child only policy that existed for years and now they've got a significant retired senior workforce that is growing expo fen sly and those -- exponentially and has to be taken care of with the money associated from the government from the people that are working that is less in numbers than they want it to be. militarily, the united states has a challenge. our capability has eroded over the years given the 9/11 wars and the defense budgets that have declined and trump attempted to reverse that and we're on the path to that. it remains to be seen, pete, if the biden administration recognizes the seriousness of this erosion and the urgency it requires to rebuild a strategic and effective detense -- deterrence against china. that is what is needed. i hope they put it to the metal here and rebuild with a sense of urgency. pete: i don't think beijing looks at our woke olympics and sees seriousness from that. thank you for your sight as always. coming up, the black lives matter d.c. chapter criticizing parents who are pushing to reopen of schools. lawrence jones sounds off on that next. ♪ i've seen better days. ♪ i've seen better days. ♪ i've seen better days. keeping your oysters business growing has you swamped. you need to hire. i need indeed indeed you do. the moment you sponsor a job on indeed you get a shortlist of quality candidates from a resume data base claim your seventy-five-dollar credit when you post your first job at indeed.com/promo >> i want to tell people to reopen schools. it's not that easy to learn virtual and i don't get distracted a lot and i get to learn, i miss that i don't get to learn as much because at home there are more distractions than at school. >> 50% of us who want schools open do not have that option, we don't have the choice to send our kids to school in person with their teachers. we're here today to demand that choice. >> amen! jedediah: those were d.c. parents and students rallying to reopen schools. we want to bring in lawrence jones, fox news analyst and lawrence, before we get you to weigh in on all of this, i want to share with you a tweet from blm d.c. here w's what they had to say. where do these kids go to school? they must have great access to medical care just in case and transportation. your thoughts on all this? >> well, good morning, family. i've been doing extensive reporting on the crisis that is affecting our young people. it is clear to the democrats who are in the pockets of the teachers union, the fact that you have kids out there protesting to be able to return to school, this is america, this shouldn't be the way. i showed you the stats of the mental health, i've shown you the stats, 6 to 8% that these kids when they go into the workforce they're going to be that much behind and now you have a teachers -- a union essentially that is in the pockets of the democrats. look, i've been he very clear about justice. i want to fight for justice on the streets, talk about equal justice under the law. but that's not what blm is doing right now. this is very common with these national groups that have these local chapters. the people that this is going to impact the most are black and brown folks, right. they want to return back to school. how's mom and dad going to go to work and provide for their kids if they have to go be at home with them? what are we going to do about those kids that have been 70% of them on free and reduced lunches and they can't get a quality meal, what are we going to do about the kids that are going to be 6, 7, 8 years behind because of the loss of information that they didn't receive during this pandemic. it is clear none of these groups care about the kids. they only care about the money that they're getting. it's sad. will: what is it about social justice warriors that specifically when it comes to the issue of education so often oppose the very policies that would help those they purport to be in the business of helping, whether or not it's charter schools, or here where we're talking about schools reopening, what is it about them opposing polls sis where the beneficiaries are as you say black and brown kids. >> it's a money game. the unions have so much power. i get sick and tired of people talking about the gun lobby when you have powerful nea and atf that they will slaughter a candidate if they don't go for their agenda. we know that charter schools and school of choice is better for kids because it encourages competition. a lot of them don't want merit based pay. i was impacted by school of choice. my parents were in dallas many we ended up going to garland where they have choice of schools. meaning you can go to any school that is within that district. you know how they got that? during desegregation a judge said you're making the black and brown kids go to the schools in their neighborhoods, so i'm going to open up the entire school district. we may not have segregation anymore but we might as well have it when you know that the schools that are performing the worst are in our neighborhoods. and they realize if they encourage competition a lot of the bad schools will be shut down and a lot of the teachers will be out of jobs. i don't care. i care about the kids. pete: why go for merit all this time when you know you will lose if you do so. lawrence, we appreciate it. now to the big east tournament. we told you that georgia -- the georgetown hoya's taking the title in a stunner against the creighton blue jays. abby hornacek joins us with more. >> reporter: oh, yeah, guys. it was an exciting night right here at msg. never before have we seen an eighth seed win the tournament but the georgetown hoyas did just that, before take down the creighton blue jays, they said villanova, no problem, seaton hall, we've got this. they went into the championship game at the 8 and-a-half point underdog, ended up winning by 25 points. you can't forget about patrick ewing. he was a big story out of the turn innocent. we know him -- tournament. we can think of him as the first to also win as a coach. >> it means everything. i just -- you know, i can't do anything but applaud my guys. we've been through a lot. we had a pause. we came out of the pause with flying colors and now we're on our way to the big dance. >> reporter: yes, they are. and part of that reason is because of freshman dante harris. we talked about him all tournament long. he earned the most outstanding player award. and t udiea bile, he was a huge contributor to the victory for the hoyas. they had to fight fatigue after playing four days in a row. they pulled off multiple upsets, kept us on the edge of our seats and now they're the winners, going to the ncaa tournament and this big east tournament definitely delivered. will: absolutely, thank you so much. jedediah: thanks, abby. coming up, the biden administration ordering fema to assist with the influx of migrant children at the southern border. maria bartiromo spoke directly to kids left alone on their dangerous journey to the us not too long ago. she joins us live to discuss what she learned. that's next. >> their mom set them down, she said she was going to buy something for them to eat and never returned. trelegy for cop. ♪ birds flyin' high, you know how i feel. ♪ ♪ breeze drifting on by you know how i feel. ♪ ♪ it's a new dawn... ♪ if you've been taking copd sitting down, it's time to make a stand. start a new day with trelegy. no once-daily copd medicine has the power to treat copd in as many ways as trelegy. with three medicines in one inhaler, trelegy helps people breathe easier and improves lung function. it also helps prevent future flare-ups. trelegy won't replace a rescue inhaler for sudden breathing problems. tell your doctor if you have a heart condition or high blood pressure before taking it. do not take trelegy more than prescribed. trelegy may increase your risk of thrush, pneumonia, and osteoporosis. call your doctor if worsened breathing, chest pain, mouth or tongue swelling, problems urinating, vision changes, or eye pain occur. take a stand and start a new day with trelegy. ask your doctor about once-daily trelegy. and save at trelegy.com. we made usaa insurance for members like kate. a former army medic, made of the flexibility to handle whatever monday has in store and tackle four things at once. so when her car got hit, she didn't worry. she simply filed a claim on her usaa app and said... i got this. usaa insurance is made the way kate needs it - easy. she can even pick her payment plan so it's easy on her budget and her life. usaa. what you're made of, we're made for. usaa. usaa.hooh. that spinde of, class was brutal. well you can try using the buick's massaging seat. oohh yeah, that's nice. can i use apple carplay to put some music on?

maria: i'll really was. when i saw those of two kids cross the border, right in front of my eyes, all i could think was how does this happen? how is it possible that these two young babies are able to cross into el paso, texas, and pass drug lords and drug cartels that have a serious big money business and that business is transporting drugs over the border and humans over the border. it's getting increasingly expensive now to get those things over the border. we've got a list of the prices coming on that the drug lords and the traffickers are charging people in you come from mexico versus if you come from romania or if you come from the middle east. it's incredible, the business that has built up around the border and the border towns have completely changed. the border towns are not just texans. the border towns are totally international and you don't know who is in these border communities. that has stirred up such upset from the people who live there. so this is a serious crisis. don't forget, when i took the show down to the border, that was april of 2019. so we are two years later and you can just imagine how much worse it has gotten, just because of the signals that the biden administration has isn't out. the signal is, it's all good, come on over. we are stopping the wall construction. we are overturning the remain in mexico. we are going to be humane. we are going to get you to live with families. this is the crisis that the biden administration is dealing with right now. that's why fema has to get involved. that's why we are seeing this become topic a. one thing that the president did not mention last week when he did his presentation on thursday night, is the fact that the migrants are bringing covid into this country ten times the rate of what we are seeing in america right now. ten times. we're going to talk about it in ten minutes time. we have the governor of texas coming as well as john cornyn from the senate talking about all of this and how america is changing fast because of these open of borders. will: i'm sure you'll be talking about those topics all throughout the morning. we'll be watching, sunday morning futures, thanks, maria. still ahead, barry white highlighting the damaging effects of woke ideology on students on some of america's top high schools an universities. we'll talk to a professor who has a warning for parents and educators, next. ♪ i'm still free. ♪ take a chance on me. ♪ gonna do my very best and it ain't no lie. ♪ you can put me to the -- lease the 2021 is 300 for $359 a month for 36 month's, and we'll make you're first month's payment. experience amazing. this isn't just freight. and we'll make you're first month's payment. these aren't just shipments. they're promises. big promises. small promises. cuddly shaped promises. each with a time and a place they've been promised to be. and the people of old dominion never turn away a promise. or over promise. or make an empty promise. we keep them. a promise is everything to old dominion, because it means everything to you. i want my kids to know... they come from people who... were brave. and took risks. big risks. bring your family history to life, like never before. get started for free at ancestry.com jedediah: former new york times opinion editor barry weiss is investigating. will: she writes the most important consequence of the woke ideology isn't a lesser english curriculum, it's that the ideology changed children's self conception. robert george is a founding member of the academic freedom alliance and joins us now. we're going to get to that alliance in a moment. it's really important. but let me read one more portion of the op-ed and get your response. she said children learn how the new rules of the woke work. the idea of lying in order to please a teacher seems like a phenomenon from the soviet union. the high schoolers say they do versions of this including parroting views that they don't agree in assignments so their grades don't suffer. is this something we see? >> it's something we see and it's something we should be deeply, deeply concerned about. there is all the difference in the world between education and indoctrination. indoctrination is the very anti-thesis of education. that's what she has put her finger on. some of the best schools in the nation, both public schools and private schools, the most elite private schools, especially the most elite private schools, students are forbiden from saying what they truly believe, either formally or by informal pressure by peers and teachers and a sometimes they're forced to say things they don't believe. well, this is simply not education. for education to occur we need an atmosphere of freedom, not an atmosphere of fear and intolerance. jedediah: i worked in one of those elite private schools and it was mind-blowing some of what i saw up close, very much mirrors what barry weiss is expressing. you've been teaching at princeton for 36 years. so what are you seeing in college classrooms? are you seeing the same phenomenon bleed over from high school to college? >> we are. indeed, students are coming in nowadays seeing this in the last five years, really, in very many cases with their heads stuffed fill with ideology. they're not considering or even interested in considering the best that is to be said on the competing sides of the questions which is the essence of education, considering the arguments on the competing sides and part of the job now of a university professor which has always been part of the job but it's more urgent now is to open students' minds. the trouble is a lot of students are engaging in self censorship. even when they begin in their hearts and minds to question the establish orthodoxy's on campus, the fundamentalist religion, when they begin to question they fear saying out loud what they're believing in their minds and hearts and that kind of self censorship is extremely damaging to education. pete: the self-censorship might be the end of the line for censorship, but other students are looking to censor other people, including professors, a professor surrounded by students being heckled and many are losing their jobs over these sort of mob outrage incidents. you're working on the academic freedom alliance which is hoping to address some of thesish zeus the academic freedom alliance which launched this week and i'm very excited about begins with 200 professors from universities across the country and of all different points of view from the left to the center to the right, professors who are joined together believing we've got to do something to fight back against this climate of fear and intolerance which is undermining the mission of university as scholarly and teaching institutions and what we're doing is vowing to fight with each other, to stand with each other, to treat an attack on one as an attack on all not only of for the safety of ourselves as individual professors who need to be able to speak our minds and teach as we see fit in the classroom but also for the sake of education as a whole. pete: imagine that, professors having to fight to profess. that's what you're doing, full confession, a professor of mine at prescription ton and one of the -- princeton and one of the very best, even though i was not one of the best. keep us posted, please. >> visit our website. pete: more "fox & friends" just moments away. not everybody wants the same thing. that's why i go with liberty mutual — they customize my car insurance so i only pay for what i need.
