Sexy manatee and music back. Really big deal. Thanks, dana. Good evening, welcome to washington. Im bret baier. Breaking tonight, President Biden is three hours away from what critics and supporters are calling one of the most important speeches of his political career. The incumbent president trying to fend off his predecessor and potential successor must prove to the American People he is not too old, too infirm or too out of touch on policies important to americans to justify a second term. He must also lay out a vision for a second term that his Campaign Hopes can prompt a reversal of his recent dismal poll numbers. The state of the Union Address can be seen right here live at 9 00 p. M. Eastern time. Were just now getting a sneak peek at a few elements of the president s speech. White house correspondent peter doocy starts us off with that live from the north lawn. Good evening, peter. Peter bret, this is going to be President Bidens balancing act tonight. Pitch a unity agenda that appeals to republicans watching at home while sharply criticizing republicans that are sitting there in the room with him. And hes also going to allude to donald trump not by name, as a rival close in age. Were told the president is going to say the following my lifetime has taught me to embrace freedom and democracy, a future based on the core values that have defined america, honesty, decency, dignity and equality to respect everyone to give everyone a fair shot to give hate no safe harbor. Now, some other people my age see a different story. An american story of resentment, revenge, and retribution. Thats not me. And, thats not all. Do you think he has a good story to tell . Peter that Story Written By A White HouseSpeech Writer lower inflation, more jobs, and cheaper prescription drugs. He is going to talk about going to cap costs for healthcare and prescription drugs. The president will not announce new Executive Action on immigration and will instead blame republicans for a broken border. We know why that bill did not succeed thus far. And thats because donald trump told republicans you cant give joe biden a victory. Republicans will also be accused of jeopardizing reproductive rights. The radical, extreme bills that were seeing on abortion, on ivf, youre going to see hear the president be very loud and clear about that. [chant nothing more wall] white house officials are preparing for possible ceasefire protests during remarks where the president will order construction of a newport in gaza to receive aid. He is a person who understands the pain of all americans as they watch television at night and he is taking actions to address that. Senator tim scott argues the first line of his speech should be im sorry. I would imagine that President Biden is going to try to put as much lipstick on this pig as he possibly can. I dont think he will be able to succeed. President practiced this speech at camp david with help from actors who have played the president. I do feel like i should just point out one thing that always bears remembering, theres no crying in politics. Well, what i hope is my politics doesnt make anybody else cry. Ha ha ha. [laughter] peter President Biden gives speeches all the time but typically only about 20 minutes and at some point in the late morning or afternoon. We going to be a lot longer and a lot later than he has gotten used to as president. Bret . Bret peter doocy live on the north lawn. Thanks. While former President Donald Trump is not waiting to actually hear the State Of The Union before criticizing it. Correspondent bryan llenas is outside the trump compound maralago just in west palm beach, florida, with details. Joe bidens sad excuse for a state of the Union Address aside, here are the facts. When i left office, we gave joe biden the most secure border in u. S. History. Former President Trump delivering a prebuttal ahead of President Bidens state of the Union Address tonight. Accusing President Biden of lying about his record, calling his administration a horror show while primarily attacking biden on immigration. As soon as he got in, crooked joe and his radical left lunatics deliberately dismantled each and every one of those policies that were so good. The Trump Campaign using President Bidens most important reelection speech to date to launch its own offensive on Truth Social Trump said he will be providing wide play by play of the president s state of the Union Address. This as the Maga Super Pac released a new ad today attacking bidens age and mental acuity. Ad buy will run nationally during post State Of The Union coverage. We can all see joe bidens weakness. If biden wins, can he even survive until 20029. The real question is can we . The Trump Campaign says it will not change its tone or rhetoric for the general election as it tries to win over independence and suburban women. He has never been in a stronger position to win and its because people like that he tells it like it is. Today, Biden Campaign cochair senator chris coons down played concerns about President Bidens age, saying, quote biden is running for president of the United States, not to be a track sprinter, adding the 81yearold has the ability and the mastery of The World Stage to keep us safe and strong. Bret . Bret bryan llenas in west palm. Bryan, thanks. The border crisis is shaping up to be one of, if not the major issue in the campaign. President biden is expected tonight to blame republicans for standing in the way of Immigration Reform and Border Security. Lets check in on the border tonight. Correspondent jeff paul is in eagle pass, texas. What used to be an almost guaranteed path into the u. S. Is now being blocked by fencing and the Texas National guard. [speaking spanish] but despite the states show of force at the border, migrants are still crossing. One migrant within this latest group coming across the rio grande in eagle pass was even wearing a bidenharris shirt telling our team he has it on so they will let him in. [laughter] Kinney County attorney brent smith says the numbers are staggering. We have prosecuted over 5,000 people for just criminal trespass, let alone Kinney County only has 3200 people in the entire county. So we have prosecuted more people that actually even live here. Smith says images like the ones captured by this Branch Camera in his county are the norm now. Can you see what appears to be a group of people dressed in camouflage crossing through private property. The smuggling often leads to Property Damage or worse. This is the aftermath of a deadly crash involving a suspected smuggler who was trying to get away from texas dps. We see the Security Threat but, yet, we are not doing anything about it. And i dont think American People are going to put up with that. When we spoke with folks who near u. Near the u. S. Mexico border, they say its the lawmakers who arent doing enough at all levels and all affiliation. All it is too much politics and not enough work in both houses. Come together, you know, both sides of the aisle and just come together and find a happy medium between both of them. Now, one of the locals we spoke with here in eagle pass, texas, say while he is frustrated more isnt being done at the border, he did credit Texas Governor greg abbott. He says it appears all this fencing is working and now its the federal governments turn to do something. Bret . Bret well talk to Governor Abbott in just a bit here on this show. Jeff, thanks. Another likely focal point of the president s speech in the Fall Campaign is americas crime crisis, especially in big cities. Many locations, including cities run by democrats are not waiting for the president to act. Correspondent alexandria hoff has that part of the story tonight. New yorkers woke up to the National Guard assisting in patrols of city subway stations. An effort to combat transit violence. In philadelphia we will not be held hostage. City leaders are vowing new and Aggressive Police tactics after 8 High School Students were shot in a single incident yesterday. We will use every legal tool in the toolbox. And in washington, d. C. , City Council Approved sweeping new anticrime legislation. In effect, reversing many reforms put in place after the murder of george floyd. Were at a really critical moment right now in our city. The murder rate in the nations Capitol Surged Last year. Fbi data shows that in cities where homicides fell, the rate was still higher than 2019. On capitol hill today, House Republicans demanded that the Biden Administration take responsibility for violence carried out by individuals like jose ibarra. The man accused in the murder of georgia Nursing Student laken riley. Biden administration released him just like millions of others. Lawmakers say that ibarra was in the country illegally and that he had been arrested in new york for Child Endangerment and georgia in theft prior to the killing but was released in both cases. [gavel] in afternoon the house passed legislation in laken rileys name that would lower the standards for detainment and require ice officials to take Illegal Immigrants into custody after being charged with local theft or burglary. We must now turn our focus to doing everything we can to prevent this from happening to another american. Congressman collins said that laken rileys parents turned down an invitation to attend tonight want state of the Union Address saying they continued to continue their grief at home, bret . Bret alexandria, thank you. Bret breaking tonight, thesome app. Tiktok and the people who work for that urging users to call their members of congress to oppose a bill that could ban it here in the u. S. Mark meredith is on capitol hill to tell us the phones have been pretty busy today, mark. They sure have. Lawmakers getting earful from tiktok users who may lose access to one of their favorite alps. Calls have failed to stop congress from potentially blocking tiktok once and for all. Today we saw the house, energy and Energy Committee advance legislation that could give tiktok chinese based company a choice either sell off the app. Soon or face a total ban. Tiktok, which boasts 170 million users says its app. Is not a danger to national security, despite it being owned by a chinese company. Lawmakers though from both parties i should say disagree. China is at war with us. And they use tiktok as a weapon or at least they can. This is a serious national Security Threat to the United States and to the privacy of every american and we cant ignore it. Tiktok is not going down without a fight today and urged its users to call their lawmakers directly and raise hell. Fox is told that some of the calls even came from middle schoolers who use the app. Daily if not hourly. One caller even said they were going to kill themselves if the app. Was taken away from them. We know House Speaker mike johnson supports this legislation meaning it could reach the house floor fairly soon. The white house says President Biden also supports a ban when its notable, bret, the Biden Campaign recently joined tiktok in an effort to reach younger voters. Bret thats exactly right. Mark meredith live on the hill. Mark, thanks. Stocks touched some records today the dow gaining 130. The s p 500 up 43 for a new record close. The nasdaq surged 242.

[applause] bret President Bill Clinton delivering the state of the Union Address in 1995 as he was angling to try to get a second term talking about the problem, the crisis of the border. Joining us now to talk about the border and tonights state of the Union AddressTexas Governor greg abbott. He is in Mcallen Texas right along the border tonight. Governor, thanks for being here. You heard. My pleasure. Bret president clinton State Of The Union 195. Do you expect a similar message from President Biden in this state of the Union Address . You know, things have changed a little bit, it looks like. And the democrats have changed a lot but the democrats used to agree with where republicans are now and that is to actually secure our border. But, bret, the symbolism of tonight cannot be more stark because, as the president ascends to his speaking location tonight, he is going to be surrounded by a fence on the outside protecting the president from his fellow americans while at the very same time the president refuses to erect a Fence Protecting Americans from Illegal Immigrants, some of whom are known terrorists and known criminals coming into our country. Theres no word President Biden can say tonight that would counter act the actions that he has taken to cause total chaos in the entire country, including the death of laken riley and too many others. Bret you know, governor, you know he will spend time on this senate bill that has not come up in the house. He will blame republicans for the politics of this. Saying you need to get over this and put it on the floor and pass it. You said that the president needed a backbone to enforce the laws already on the books. Heres what the Homeland Security secretary said in response to that. Couldnt be more wrong. This coming from an individual who is purposefully refusing to coordinate, communicate, clash t with other officials and trying to wreak havoc other cities and states across the country. Thats not a model of governance. Bret talking with you there, governor, talking about what the president is going to do politically tonight, do you think . Fact ever the matter is the best Immigration Bill thats been passed in washington, d. C. One passed by the United States house of representatives. If joe biden was serious, and if the democrats were serious in the senate, they would actually take the piece of legislation already passed out of u. S. House, work with it to deliver some solid results to secure the border. Second thing is, contrary to what mayorkas said, the fact of the matter is, when biden became president and today, there are three laws passed by Congress Already that empower the president to deny illegal entry, which he is not doing, is he Aiding And Abetting illegal entry. Second to detain anybody who crosses the border illegally which he is not doing. And, third, requires the president to build border barriers, including the border walls, including the razor wire fence that texas has built that biden is trying to tear down. So, what joe biden is doing, he is refusing to enforce laws already passed by congress and actually is acting contrary to those laws. Again, theres no word that could be articulated by the president tonight that will overcome the facts of the way that he has unilaterally destroyed the United States of america. Bret the facts on the recent poll numbers on the issue of immigration and Border Security are overwhelming. You look at the situation on the southern border, 78 now call it an emergency. And if you look inside that, the increase in key groups, since 2019 saying the border situation is an emergency, a problem. Every group, democrats, 65 and over, hispanic, black voters, women, up double digits. Some almost 30 points. Governor, theres an effort to get texas officials to have the power to enforce arrests and even kick out Illegal Immigrants. It is being considered now and in the courts and theres a stay right now, where do you think thats going . So, what youre referring to, bret, is a law that i signed that empowers every Law Enforcement officer in the state of texas to be able to arrest anybody who crosses the border illegally to jail them and know that that arrest and jail power is exactly the power that exists by a Border Patrol agents today. And so were simply trying to enforce the laws of the United States of america right now. And we are in courts on that. We are also in courts on the buoys that we put in the water. We are in courts on the fences that we put up that biden tried to cut through. Biden is trying to fight us every step of the way while texas is doing something to try to secure the border, biden is doing nothing but more than that, biden is trying to tear down everything the state of texas is doing. Its outrageous and thats one reason, bret, by that polling that you talked about is so bad. While biden is barricaded in washington, d. C. Tonight, im on the border tonight. And im talking to the people who live on the border and about the challenges they have to deal with. And let me ask you this something people in texas as well as people across america are angry about what biden has done to destroy the country. All he had to do was to continue the policies that trump left in place and the country would be far more secure today. Bret governor, but for the democrats who push back and say, listen, we negotiated this big piece of legislation, it doesnt have everything that you want, it doesnt have everything we want, but it was passible in the senate, why not take that and make it better and do something, and they say it is the former president who wants the issue, the border issue as a political issue for the campaign . Bret, thats a false narrative. For one, remember, that was really not border legislation. That was legislation to fund the ukraine and fund israel and things like that where they added a Border Component to it. Second, what that bill did on the senate side was basically codify illegal immigration. And then, third, go back, theres already a piece of legislation thats already passed u. S. House of representatives. Bret h. R. 2. Why cant the senate take up what the house passed and get that to the president s desk . Bret finally, we heard from the former Border Patrol chief who said he had not had one conversation with the president or the vice president. You talk to these guys all the time. Whats the level of frustration down there . What is their emotion . Whats the feeling on the bo border . So i do talk to Border Patrol agents all the time. In fact, i hired a former Border Patrol agent to be the texas border czar. And the level of frustration by the Border Patrol is extraordinarily high because they want to enforce the law. And their hands are being tied about enforcing the law. And know this, also, that is the Border Patrol, they work very closely with texas officials. We have a great working relationship. But they need a president who is going to step up and enforce the laws of the United States that will allow the Border Patrol to secure our border. Bret last thing, governor, is there any optimism, do you have any optimism that you are going to hear anything tonight that suggests that you can work with this president one way or another . There is going to be again, there is going to be a lot of words spoken tonight, but there will be no word that matches the horrific actions that President Biden has taken to have really endangered everybody across the United States whether it be here in the Rio Grande Valley or it be in athens, georgia, or it be in times square where Police Officers are beat up or the Washington State where a Police Officer was killed just two days ago . There is wreckage and carnage across america because of joe bidens open border policies. Bret so the answer is no . No. In a word, no. Bret all right, Governor Abbott, we appreciate your time. Thank you, bret. Bret up next, a huge reversal from democrats in one Pacific Northwest state after an epic failure, well explain.

Aishah insiders tell me katie britt is a natural. She is a nobrainer for the Republican Party. Shes the youngest woman republican female in the senate right now. It will really be a stark contrast, just position when you see her come on our airwaves right after you see the oldest president in u. S. History. Now, brit was elected to office in 2022 it was an interesting race because at first she was not very well liked by former President Trump. He endorsed her opponent. When she began climbing in the polls he reversed that decision. She knows the senate really well. She was the Chief Of Staff for her predecessor senator Richard Shelby she is well like but tough when she needs to be. In fact her breakout moment here on capitol hill happened just a few months ago, bret, as she passionately called attention to what was happening at the border after a trip there. Women are being raped on our border. That children are being recycled on our border. That we have laws that allow that to happen. The reality is these policies are inhumane. Aishah brit. It is a mother where the state ruled frozen elm bree owes are considered children. Democrats of course are trying to tie this to abortion. Republicans are widely rejecting that and the state Legislature Just passed a bill to protect ivf treatments. Can you expect to hear, bret, talk about this as well and really make clear that the Republican Party is proivf. We just got some excerpts from her response tonight and she will be tough on the border and crime and she will talk about how for the are years now the left has Quote Coddled criminals and Defunded Police all while letting in Repeat Offenders walk free.

Senator britt will be a exclusive guest on Fox News Sunday this weekend with shannon. Check your local listings for times in your area. Bret as peter doocy reported earlier, President Biden is going to announce tonight he is planning to have the u. S. Military build a port in gaza. It would be used to receive large ships carrying aid for palestinians. This comes as ceasefire talks pause and Iranbacked Houthi terrorists flex their muscle. Trey yingst has the latest tonight from tel aviv. Trey newly recruited Houthi Rebels march through the streets of y yemens capital stepping on american, israeli and british flags. They have a message for the west. We say to britain and america that you will not put an end to us or scare us with your ships. We will drown them in the sea. That threat follows continued missile and drone launches by the iranbacked Terrorists Group against commercial shipping vessels, including an attack wednesday against a bulk carrier that killed three sailors and injured at least four others. The houthis cite the ongoing war in gaza as their motivation for striking ships in the G Gulf Of Aden and the red sea. That conflict is unlikely to end before the start of the holy month of ramadan this weekend. As unsuccessful negotiations wrap today in cairo. Talks are expected to resume next week with no ceasefire on the hors, israels Prime Minister has pledged to enter gazas southern most hop Labor Relation Center that sits along the egyptian border.

Thats why my administration has put more boots on the border than ever before. Not one more American Life should be lost because our nation failed to control its very dangerous border. And lets also come together on immigration. [applause] make it a bipartisan issue once again. [applause] bret well, its clearly not a bipartisan issue. Immigration will be in this address, probably about the senate bill and a lot of the Politics Around that as you look at the gallup pull it is top, its now at 28 as far as issues that people care about but what people care about in this speech may be Something Different and it may be how its delivered. Here is axios. Democrats pin 2024 hopes and fears on bidens State Of The Union some democrats dread a high profile senior moment. Others expressed confidence that biden can repeat last years energetic performance. Quote, we are all nervous said one House Democrat citing concerns about the 81yearolds bidens ability to speak without blowing things nice Confidence Builder as you head to the capitol. Harold ford jr. Cohost of the five. Ben domenech host of the Ben Domenech Podcast On Fox News Radio and Katie Pavlich news editor at town hall. Com. You werent that one democrat . Harold i was not. Bret what do you think about that about how its delivered is the most important thing. I think its important. The two speeches that will be most important for him one is tonight. He wont get a bigger audience than tonights State Of The Union with all of the networks carrying it, most importantly fox. And, two, when he accepts the democratic nomination in chicago in the summer. So he has to be at his very, very best tonight. I hope the one frame that comes out of it, bret, and i listened to Governor Abbott and i have been a fan with Governor Abbott the way he has dealt with immigration and Border Security. I was disappointed in him saying that there was nothing that President Biden could say that might give him joy and hope. I hope most americans approach it that way and i dont think i will. I never approached it when republicans spoke including president bush who was president when i was there. What he has to hope the American People walk away tonight is are you going to be field with grievance or find Common Ground. If he is put himself on the Common Ground and im not sucking up to you but ways in which you find answers to real problems, if you can be in the Common Ground space and not the Grievance Space he has a Fighting Chance to get this Reelection Campaign reset and restarted tonight. Bret his people, katy, are saying part of this speech is drawing a contrast with former President Trump. And you heard that excerpt earlier, just a piece of it. My lifetime has taught me to embrace freedom and democracy, a future based on the core values that have defined america, honesty, decency, equality to respect everyone, to give everyone a fair shot to give hate no safe harbor. Now other people my age see a different story an american story of resentment, revenge and retribution. Thats not me. He doesnt mention the former president but clearly that sentence was meant to be put out early for a reason. Yes. Well joe biden doesnt get out much to the press. He doesnt do a lot of interviews and doesnt do a lot of speeches. We have seen him essentially being hidden the last couple months. This is a big moment for him to come out and prove that the hur report is not an accurate representation of his mental abilities and its an opportunity for him to try and make the case that he is a better candidate for then President Donald Trump because now people know donald trump likely, just given the numbers in fact the only candidate left on the republican side of the race that he is going to be the one running against joe biden. And we have this very recent contrast between the policies of President Trump and the policies of President Biden. And so far the white house has tried to make this argument that everythings fine, americans just arent feeling it yet whether its inflation or illegal immigration issue. Im curious tonight whether he will try change that tone empathetic and Say Something i know we have challenges, im the guy to take you through that but President Trump is going to washington, too and giving a play by play. Certainly he will have some debates even if its not oneonone. Bret not only that he gave a prebuttal already in a speech designed to get out there and heres part of it. Over the past three years, biden has actively aided and abetted the importation of millions and millions of illegal alien migrants and resettled them into your communities. At any time during the past three years, Crooked Joe Biden and he is crooked as you can be and the most incompetent president we have ever had could have called off the invasion. Bret ben, theres a seat left open by mike collins from georgia for laken riley, the Nursing Student who was killed. There are going to be a number of things in the hall including buttons about the border. But by republicans. It is the issue that they are going to hit on. Ben i think overall what you want to see if you are a biden supporter tonight is a reset that reestablishes a sense of command; that hes in control, fully in control not just of his own faculties and his ability to give a speech when it comes to tone and everything related to that, but also that hes Reasserting Control in the ways that he can as president of the United States over all of these chaotic issues. Bunone of the things that hurts democrats the most in this election is that as he fades from memory and the former president seems less and less chaotic and this current president seems more and more so not just on the border but around the world, you know, as it relates to confrontation with china. As it relates to different Foreign Policy issues, things here at home that seem to be, you know, going going off the rails, a presence of command, i think is very important to establish. If is he able to do that in this moment, then maybe he can achieve a reset but the simple fact that democrats, so many of them, are calling for a reset at this moment is an indictment of the white houses approach and his campaign, which has been so washingtonbased. Bret you know, harold, the Foreign Policy section is going to be interesting as well especially with israel and gaza. Im told that arab ambassadors have been invited by the white house to attend to invite those countries and this Whole Port Being Set Up by the u. S. Military and gaza, you know, is definitely a hatat this point tip from theconcerns of the prot of the party. It might be a hat tip and recognition that you have got to win in West Virginia and michigan in the fall that part was motivated by that. Bret we shouldnt say it doesnt deal with the suffering inside gaza. Harold once you mentioned the ambassadors and the diplomats coming, theres no doubt thats a huge part of it. Coloring that also is the fact that its impacting here. I dont agree with anything thats been said here particularly agree with something ben said about reset he has got to be in command. Something we are not seeing from some of my republican Friends Tonight who have been talking about it politicians. Be more cheerful not as contentious. Be more optimistic not as ominous in the tone and substance. You do that tonight mr. President , you will reset and reclaim the power you want. Say to the country give me four more years. Thats what he has got to do tonight. Bret i suggest under an hour thats just me. Katie i suggest they should go back to mailing it to congress. [laughter] [laughter] ben down pennsylvania avenue. Bret all right, guys. See you in a bit. Thank you. You can hear the sirens.
