stay off of social media if they take any spring break vacation. >> as a parent vacations are plans for teachers because we need to negotiate. it's horrible. >> new york republicans introduced a resolution to impeach governor andrew cuomo. >> the governor has lost credibility and trust that we don't feel he can go forward and govern. ♪ ♪ ♪ steve: 6:01 wake-up call. beep, beep. welcome to first hour of "fox & friends" march ninth, 2021. ainsley: the weather is supposed to be really nice starting today. 50's. i heard 60's today. okay. brian: the one thing to your comment earlier, later i will expand on the weather comment from ainsley, instead of looking at an alarm clock can you say opportunity clock, some spin it to make an opportunity's day. steve: what are you talking about? brian: your wake-up call, your opportunity clock. why don't we look at it that way? it's more positive. steve: you have been listening to the andrew carnegie tapes? brian: sorry the 1920's entrepreneur inspires me. steve: this is our opportunity to give you the news. brian: new report reveal it is number of migrant children in custody has tripled over the past two weeks, griff, not good news you would think. griff: not good news at all. brian, ainsley and steve, good morning to you. i'm outside casa de imigrante and they are starting to fill to capacity. we were able to get inside. many receiving after people in camp yesterday was closed. the director inside said last week he had 50 migrants inside today he's got more than 250. now we spoke to a volunteer inside who spoke english and he says he's seeing troubling numbers. listen. >> they're coming and coming. i don't know if this is almost the top. almost full capacity. griff: at that point you have to turn people away. >> no, we cannot do that. everybody comes and welcome. griff: the report you mentioned, brian, according to the new york times they obtained dhs documents that show that the number of unaccompanied numbers tripled to more than 3,250 of which 1,360 were jailed longer than 72 hours permitted by law. remember when the border patrol apprehends unaccompanied children they turn them over to hhs's office oh of refugee resettlement. looking back at 2014 when vice president biden was in charge of the unaccompany minor, in 2021, 111,000. now break it down by sector. del rio, texas getting hit some of the hardest numbers. you can see that they are up 122% for unaccompanied minors compared to last year and for the single adult encounters up nearly 350%. delrios's mayor had to say this last night. >> mayors across the border are faced in a hard and rock place. we also have a responsibility to our constituents and to our tax paying citizens and the community. griff: the administration still not want to go call a crisis but president biden is taking incoming from all directions, it's not just republicans that are attacking the immigration policies in these numbers that are spiraling out of control but you have democrats along the border like henry cuellar of texas and the progressive wing like alexandria ocasio-cortez and others saying that they don't care who is the president, unacceptable, brian, ainsley, steve. steve: griff jenkins live down in mexico, griff, thank you very much. so griff made it very clear the administration is breaking the law. you get 1360 of these kids were held longer than 72 hours in what "the new york times", "the new york times" is describing as jail-like facilities. now here is the thing. we have been trying to get down to those facilities to take a look to see what kind of conditions the kids are being held in but the administration will not allow it. why is that? well, because essentially they are the same facility that trump held people and it was referred to kids in cages plus during the pandemic there was social distancing but on friday, ainsley and brian, they said you know what, we have so many people, forget that. let's go 100% capacity but nonetheless the administration will not let reporters in which is just -- we need to see what is going on in there. ainsley: well, as of saturday 1,553 had tested positive, this was since january 25th, tested positive for covid and their advised to quarantine but by law they can't prevent them from traveling into the united states. and as of sunday they had more than 8,100 unaccompanied minors in the shelters and they said in this article, the new york times, 13 days away from maximum capacity. brian: with all of on joe biden's plate when he took over as president of the united states on january 20th, why would he create the crisis and why would he go in there and blow a deal with the triangle countries and get rid of migrant protection protocols that were remain in mexico deals, why would he not anticipate the surge of the border as he tells everybody he has been doing the job for 40 years. he actually signed a border fence defense act back in 2006. meanwhile his dhs secretary who is assistant to jay johnson as deputy, who knows better said this, i activated the volunteer force to support customs and border protection as they face the surge in migration across the southwest border. you have likely seen the news of overwhelming numbers of migrants seeking access to the country along with the southwest border in 2019, over 900 volunteers deployed to support their cbp colleagues during a similar migrant surge. please consider joining the volunteered force to, again, provide needed humanitarian support along the southwest border and relief for our cbp colleagues. so it's not a crisis, though, right, it's just a challenge, dan crenshaw knows better. >> it's really hard to process thousands of people. it's also very preventible. as you said, on day one biden reversed the remain in mexico policy. major deterrent for people coming across. look, only 10% of people asking for asylum have a valid asylum claim. so when you disincentives that, okay, fine, wait and adjudicate your claim in mexico, well, people don't tend to come across. when you say we will not deport you and give you a bus ticket where you want, they will get huge influx of people. ainsley: they are looking for volunteers to go down there and help. they don't think it's a crisis. they are not calling that. why do they go on the weekend to check out the facilities. the volunteers that are needed are for managing property, preparing meals, doing supply run, prescription medicine runs and assistance and control. brian: why you're going down there, you haven't briefed the president yet. can you find something, mr. president, can you find a hole in your schedule to get the results of their expedition down to the border? steve: here is the thing. if they are able to send the white house team down to the southern border safely to observe the conditions that the kids are being held in, why can they not allow the press in? the problem is for the administration it's the number of kids who are crossing and what to do once they are in custody because right now whatever you call it, it's a mess. ainsley: some are 4 year's old and 6 year's old. they try to release them to the united states to find sponsors? steve: that's the law. right now they can't do that. the secretary directed agents from the northern border to the southern border. so anybody wants to come in, canada, the coast is clear. brian: something about this thing, they don't seem to mind and i find that disturbing. steve: who? brian: the administration doesn't seem to mind that the surge illegal immigrants from our southern border are penetrating into our country. they don't seem to be mind as we let them go into the interior. now let's talk about the covid relief bill. they passed the senate over the weekend, $1.9 trillion which has been underreported is it only 9% of this bill actually goes to pandemic relief. the rest goes through all types of progressive programs. not my words, jen psaki's words. believe it or not she's proud of the progressive agenda that she borrowed from bernie sanders. >> senator manchin and senator sanders and a range of democrats in between just voted to support a $1.9 trillion package that is the most progressive piece of legislation in history. so i would say we feel pretty good about that. steve: here is the thing for progressives, the super progressives, where is my $15 per hour and didn't get that. what about -- as it turns out, they up the amount of income to get a check and they got rid, they cut the weekly payments, so, you know, in the house that's the senate chamber, in the house, nancy pelosi can only lose 4 and she's got about that number who are grumbling but ultimately, you know, it all comes down to numbers and they think they could take it up today, could be on joe biden's desk by tomorrow or next day. ainsley: gas prices have gone up. pipeline no more, illegals are allowed to come across the border and after 72 hours they are allowed to go free. there are so many things that have changed recently over the last few months and this is one of them. they're passing this progressive bill, only 9% going to covid relief. brian: 1 trillion unspent. ainsley: exactly. all the states have money that they haven't spent. there's leftover money from the last covid relief. they don't care. this is your money. you go to work every day, you wake up every morning and you go to work and your tax dollars are being used for this. kayleigh mcenany said if she had gotten up there and said this is the most conservative bill, she talks about the double standard, listen to this. >> president biden did 5 iterations of bipartisan covid relief. imagine if he had promised bipartisanship the entirety of the election, reaching across the aisle, the great deal-maker and i stood at the podium and said we just passed the most conservative bill in modern history with not a single democrat by our side we would be mocked or bid called but they are saying the quiet part out loud, this is the most progressive bill, liberal wish list with a 2 trillion-dollar price tag that we will have to live with. ainsley: your grandkids will have to pay for this and work really hard and pay for this. california, they haven't opened up schools yet. in all parts of our country, counties where the kids aren't going to school because of covid. illegal immigrants are coming across the border, many of them are testing positive for covid and they're allowed to come into the country. brian: you did this. people were out of jobs. these are decision that is the governors have made and being rewarded. the higher unemployment of the state, the more of the $350 billion that you will get. if you worked hard to keep your state open and keep your economy up, you actually are being disadvantaged by this bill and brought up by tim scott last night. we added 379,000 jobs last month, unemployment rate is going down yet you put another 2 trillion on top of the 4 trillion into the bloodstream all which we did not have and you brag that this goes to programs that are progressive, not aiding a pandemic and promise if you're chuck schumer, we will go back for more. steve: but the average american, the whole thing polled very well because it seems like everybody will get a check and now everybody wants to know where is my check now that it's going to pass? meanwhile let's talk, ainsley, to your point about schools being closed. utla is united teachers of la, it is a group of about 12 different organizations including teachers, staff and things like that. there was a private facebook page for utla and they -- they said something out loud that we imagined but shocking that they did. say said -- posted this and fox 11 in la was able to get it and screen-spotted it. friendly reminder, if you, any teachers or staff, education, et cetera, are planning any trips for spring break, please keep that off social media. it's hard to argue that it is unsafe for in-person instruction if parents and the public see vacation photos and international travel and it was just a couple of days ago, they changed the air-conditioning, the whole list. ainsley: has nothing to do with the schools not being safe right now for in-person class. steve: it's all about optics. brian: here what fox 11 statement says, they are able to post views on facebook pages and in the facebook group the united teachers los angeles does not monitor nor responsible for the content. we do not want to discourage a robust dialogue for members in the public square of opinion but will tell them don't post any of the video, don't do any live streams, don't tell us what a great time you're having on spring break. every kid in california is behind. they should be going to school through the summer, in person in order to catch up for the last year and it's almost a year to date until they were told to go home, pack up and not come back and the governor said you have to come back, you're set to come back, they said, yeah, i don't think so. we are not coming back. steve: i wonder how many teachers are in california, you can do the zoom job anywhere. brian: absolutely. ainsley: i feel sorry for the teachers because they don't get paid a lot. my sister is a teacher. a lot of times they spend their own money to buy supplies to the classroom. we heard one mom say that her teacher said i love the zoom because i get to go work out and i don't have to take a shower before i get on zoom to teach the kids. steve: well, the cdc said the teachers can go back without being vaccinated and flies in the face of what this utla -- brian: they get 3 months off in the summer, it's almost impossible to get them fired. as we see we have join protection. a lot of positives to being a teacher in los angeles, maybe more than most cities meanwhile jillian mele is upstairs with the latest breaking news. >> that's right. moment two officers are shot, one of them saved by bullet proof vest. [shots fired] jillian: two officers narrowly avoided being killed. they were responding to a 911 call from the suspect's roommate who was also shot. the suspect is in custody. the trial of former minneapolis officer charged with george floyd's death moving forward today. jury selection was paused as prosecutors try to add third-degree murder to derek chauvin's charges. minneapolis business owners are on edge over a possible repeat of last year's riots. >> we are going to probably board up but we are hoping that the city of minneapolis will step up to the plate which they say they are going to do and protect us. we are trying to feel confident in that but yet it's still scary. jillian: over a million dollars has been spent on barricades. the cdc is getting those vaccinated green light pre-pandemic activities, new guidelines to visit other vaccinated people indoors without mask or social distancing. visit indoors with low-risk unvaccinated people and skip quarantine if exposed but the cdc advises against traveling. thursday president biden is expected to make his first prime time address marking the one-year anniversary of covid-19 shutdowns. and founder dave portnoy saving a small business by eating pizza. stopped by california pizzeria for the 1,000th episode. business owners say that the business has skyrocketed ever since and named pizza after him as a thank you. i have to go there to try a pizza. steve: it's in livingston, new jersey, we can be there for lunch. ainsley: how far from your house? steve: 10 miles. ainsley: bring some in. steve: indeed. ainsley: is governor cuomo's time in office up? that's up next. wealth is saving a little extra. worth is knowing it's never too late to start - or too early. ♪ ♪ wealth helps you retire. worth is knowing why. ♪ ♪ principal. for all it's worth. o so you're a small business, or a big one. you were thriving, but then... oh. ah. okay. plan, pivot. how do you bounce back?

steve: why not start the impeachment process the republicans say? there are a number of republicans and democrats in new york state that say andrew cuomo has got to go and you know what because the drum beat is getting louder, apparently there's news reporting that governor cuomo pictured right there on sunday was calling lawmakers saying, hey, don't come out on the press and issue statements for me to resign and rationale was it would undermine the attorney general investigation and yesterday the news regarding that was the attorney general named june kim, former federal prosecutor and also anne clark, employment lawyer to lead the investigation. the governor says hey, wait for the ag report before you levy judgment against me which sounds a lot like governor northam in virginia even though he weathered the storm even though many calls. he weathered the job. brian: keep in mind too the publishing group, the crown publishing group, they have to be embarrassed of what a hero cuomo was, no plans to reprint or reissue on paperback. i think that's -- i don't think there's going to be a call to -- to get the printer going again. steve: brian, you know how many books they sold in the month of february? according to book scan his books sold 300 copies in february and you know how much of an advance he got? brian: over a million. steve: mid to low 7 figures. ainsley: really? steve: that's a lot of douth. ainsley: the network evening news coverage of cuomo's scandals. if you compare nursing home deaths to the amount of time they spent on harassment accusations. 15 minutes 35 seconds on nursing home deaths and how many died 15,000 died, 13 -- i think janice told me 15. 47 minutes and 59 seconds on the harassment accusations and, look, that is serious, no woman ever needs to be put through that but if you look at the comparison of the nursing homes where so many people never came home, loved ones were not allowed to say good-byes to mom and dad brit humes. listen. >> i think he has solid ground to stand on for the moment at least on the me too stuff because he's asking that we wait until there's been an investigation. that's a perfectly reasonable position. what's striking to me is the fact that he really doesn't seem -- all the democrats are criticizing him. they are
