considered using the fb and the biden document search, instead of not the president's attorneys with no security clearances to find a documents themselves. the white house correspondent kevin corke live in washington. >> quite a story. work in i continue to look into that in the meantime answers from the white house frankly especially in the press briefings have been non- answers . that's why so many in the white house press corps are so frustrated. if you ask me about the forecas and i tell you about a quilt i' knitting, it's going to spark frustration and and eyeballing. it's what's been happening sinc the story broke. the press secretary says that she has limited on what she can and can't say. even in instances where she could or should offer offer basics, she simply won't. passing the buck to the doj or to the white house counsel's office. >> i have been forthcoming from this podium. to be clear and i've also been very clear about praying pruden from here i'm also being very clear about be consistent from here. not going beyond what is currently happening. >> at difficulty for her and sometimes she's left in the dark . that should be pointed out. today, the president avoided shattered questions from reporters about the documents that have been popping up everywhere. questions alike, are there more out there? at which you agreed to be interviewed by the doj? no answers from mr. biden which has become the norm for this white house. no answers for the nature of th documents is drawn about? that they have anything to do with ukraine or china and that there is no visitor log at your home in delaware, is there a list of those who stop by to se the commander-in-chief? he spent over six month of his time in office in delaware. >> we may have to subpoena members of the biden family and others you may have work at the residence to find out who was there. we had critical very highly sensitive classified information . >> it's not just congressional lawmakers in the special counse searching for answers, the documents discovery also could impact or expand at the ongoing probe into hunter biden's tax problems. it could ultimately lead back t the president. >> back to you a bit later thin he is still more questions than answers surrounding president biden's classified documents massive. the spring and tonight's panel. along with deputy editor of restoring america, kaylee meant light thank you both for coming on the breaking news to your first the following that the justice department considered having fbi agents monitor a search by president biden's lawyers for classified document at his homes but decided agains it both to avoid complicating later stages of the investigation and because mr. biden's attorneys had quickly turned over the first batch and were cooperating according to people who are familiar with the matter. in essence they're saying that the lawyers do what they seem t be following along nobles level right now. what are your thoughts? >> i'm very disappointed to hea this news because we discussed before, the most important thin the justice department needs to do is to make sure they treat both cases at the biden interim case equally. the doj and the fbi made a big deal about launching for the first time ever in history a surprise a search warrant on a former president's house are a lot go photos with classified documents showing the cover sheets and so on which i think women and some way to embarrass president trump. and then after they are going conduct searches done and documents of our president bide and his holding of classified information and unauthorized facility, i think the departmen is to use the fbi again to show their treating both cases evenly . >> we still get incomplete information. the council says we've been trying to answer questions thoroughly and completely, but the very nature of being cooperative with an ongoing investigation means we need to let that investigation play out. the doj says wait a minute, we never said the white house can answer questions. it's this incomplete informatio that becomes more incomplete with their answers. >> absolutely. i think the fact that white house counsel office is involve with this at all is concerning it certainly seems to indicate that the biden administration o the biden white house is having a direct effect and the doj's investigation into this issue. again, it doesn't no favors whe already already a lot of the country is convinced the doj is a biased and a certain way against former president donald trump and towards joe biden. had and that decreases trust. it's not a good standard for biden to set for his own ministration and it's going to lead to more problems. >> we talked about incomplete information in i'll tell you it doesn't get more incomplete tha coming from the white house podium here is what she said an i'll get your response. >> now it is at the hands of th special counsel. >> you should assume it's been completed yes is the president confident there are no additional documents with classified marketing that remai and any other additional locations? >> i can refer you to what his team said the search is complete . he's confident in the process and i will leave it there. >> a search was not complete. they found my documents and now because of those my documents they want talk. >> president biden is in a toug spot because if you were just a normal citizen, a criminal defense lawyer they would say don't talk. don't say anything about. don't help the government make its case against you. but he's not just a target of a criminal investigation, he's also the president and he owes the american people an explanation so we can judge's conduct. his he incompetent? does he not remember our does not care? we need to edit answers i would say here's what i'd call for at least the classify the document that declassify ones that the american people and see what ha been held so we can make her ow judgment of whether lemme get i kaylee tow in seconds to talk about the factor biden lived in the house. the fact he lived there for the better part of a year? >> the priority for the government has to be determinin whether there was a national security risk posed by unauthorized access. hunter biden is potentially one of those risks and needs to be looked into his. >> kayla mcgee white john you think you both. >> meantime highlighting the growing problem of human smuggling along the southern border this new video out of kidney county texas shows a smuggler driving a u-haul van who bailed on a high-speed chas with eight migrants left inside. the u-haul crashed into a parke car smuggling cases in the del rio sector alone have accounted for 21

courtroom and hours jonathan hunted is live at the breaking information. we were expecting at. >> it's hard not to expect for giving the evidence of the prosecutors of uncovered came a little surprise when the da today announced the new charge against brian walsh. >> the continued investigation of allowed police to obtain an arrest warrant right charging him with the murder of his wife walsh is currently being held i jail on charges of misleading investigators and on wednesday he'll be back in court to face the new are more serious charge and hear the evidence that supports them. >> additional details in the evidence in support of those likely to be presented at at arraignment but will not be disclosed at this time. >> in a walsh first reported missing january 4 by her employer

and the practice may be more widespread than we thought. equality not equal in this case. >> it isn't and the list is growing it's up to more than a dozen virginia high schools tha felton notifies students let fairfax county school officials first explained as a one-time human error happened at several schools including two neighboring counties affecting roughly 1,000 students over time . >> we were told initially it wa at one school one administrativ era and that we find as multipl schools over a dozen more than one locality. >> we believe in equality of opportunity but when you have a forced equal outcomes that's where we get to dangerous areas in this country the spokesperso for fairfax county public schools schools denying it saying there's direct connectio between equity work in the daylight of notification the connection would be false that' not stopping parents from speaking out. >> this is not some participation trophy. all of our kids are more than their test scores. i do want you to pursue equal outcomes for every student. >> about the principal care can resign. we need a good principle to do the job the national merit awar it may increase did his chances of getting scholarships at top rated universities but it may not be too late. the principles are saved colleges with the scholars applied and belatedly told them about their achievements. >> but some in a on excellence in the school at these kids are some very exceptional kids. with more on this let's bring i the president of the golden state policy council melissa melendez. it's great to have you on 13 virginia schools were talking about the the merit awards. because and after the college admissions came back in it primarily targeted asian students. he was the attorney general for virginia the asian-american students today are being treate similar to a jewish americans are treated 100 years ago and the 1920s and 30s, so many of the elite academic institutions with cap how many jewish american students would be involved. you hear the word equity all th time but my point as equity without excellence is actually up the mess. it doesn't really help the student at all. >> call it what you want but it appears to be discrimination plain and simple. >> that's a very curious at the did not notify the students. they're trying to force equitable outcome and you can't do that you have to give the kids the opportunity to perform and when they're rewarded, give it them what they earned which was these scholarships. i don't quite understand how they can say it was a human error when it was that many students. >> it's amazing to because they have these consultants they hir them they pay them a whole bunc of money to ensure that there are equal outcomes. to do that the asian students were treated unequally. >> right. we saw something like this in california play out with proposition 209 and as early as 2020 proposition 16 which back in 1996, the voters said it we don't believe the affirmative action has a place in californi and the voters decided that that's where in twentytwenty they decide the legislature decided in fact our current secretary of state i served in the state assembly, she pushed forward prep 16 that said let's put affirmative action back int place and again the voters deep blue state california has said absolutely not. and for good reason because people should be judged on merits and when they're judged by that, they should be rewarde for that merit. >> and i think when you look at this is kind of like they yell at harvard law schools they sto cooperating with the us news an u.s. news & world report rankings because they do very well they wanted to accept students who had lower test scores because in the name of equity. >> you know what happens is they're actually doing new students a disservice because they're allowing them to be placed in a school they may not be able to meet the academic standards of that school and said they end up not graduating and what is that due to their self-esteem? the goal is to get an education best for them. >> great to have you on thank you. >> speaking of education, the word police is back out in forc in the fox news @ night commonsense department wonders why they never learn it was jus a few weeks ago that stanford university's schooled all of us by coming out with a list of harmful language
