Issue. This is an american issue. It will save lives, american lives, and we have to act. We should also ban Assault Weapons and process. I will have much more to say as we learn more, but i want to be clear, those poor folks who died left behind families with a big hole in their hearts. And we can save lives increasing the Background Checks that are supposed to recur and eliminate Assault Weapons, the size of magazines, we dont know yet all the detail on that. But ill be talking later today or the next couple of days about what else we know. May god bless you all from those families who are mourning today because of gun violence in colorado and georgia all across the country. We have to act. More of you as time goes on. Will you introduce a new gun, mr. President . John President Biden they are addressing the mass shooting in the city of boulder, colorado, yesterday calling on the set at the past two bills te house in terms of Closing Loopholes and Background Checks. The president also calling for a ban on Assault Weapons. Welcome to america reports. Im john roberts. Im sandra smith. We just heard from the president his remarks as he departs for ohio where he will be discussing health care there weeding with a governor on the ground and this is we learn more about this colorado mass shooting leaving ten people dead. It victims age ranges up to 65 years old, people who simply went to the Grocery Store and dd that day. This is the suspect now in custody, 21 years old, transferred to the Boulder County jail after being hospitalized and treated for injuries and the focus today on the man who ran into that Grocery Store into the face of terror and danger, eric talley, 51 years old. We are learning more about this man who officers on the ground just described him that hes a very kind man, father to seven children ages five to 18, a Police Officer who lost his life. Alecia is live, tragic scene that played out, the Community Still responding this afternoon. Good afternoon, sandra and john, the Boulder Police chief says that by 4 00 this morning, officers had completed the heartbreaking task of identifying the next of kin of all ten victims, folks who just went Grocery Shopping and mentioned the age range from 20 to 65, Men And Women and among those was boulder Police Officer eric talley. The father of seven children, first to arrive and drove into the danger is his job required. Today, he is remembered as a hero, 21yearold ahmad alissa is an area hospital in stable condition being treated for a Gunshot Wound. There is Associated Press reporting that the suspect used in ar15 rifle and we heard the president reference weaponry right now, we dont have Additional Details confirmed by investigators here and the suspect did not just walk in at random, each shot was a specific target, the commander says the suspect was the only Person Injured which means that others who were shot were the ones who died, here is the district attorney. I promise all of us here worked tirelessly to support you and help you through this process and also to make sure the killer is held absolutely and fully accountable of the friends and victims and to the Boulder Community yesterday. The suspect is from the denver suburb which is about 15 or 16mile drive from boulder, lived in the United States most of his life and they are right now digging into his background. But the connection is is not something we know yet. Investigators planned to be on the scene working on the ground here for the first few days and at this point, police have not shared if they have a motive yet that has been communicated to them. They know they have interviewed the suspect at least once expected to be transferred to the Boulder County jail later today and i can tell you as someone who has lived in the denverboulder area for more than two decades and talking to family and friends right now, there is a sense of shock here but also a tremendous sense of familiarity that is just heartbreaking from where im standing, a 45 minute drive to Columbine High School and a 37 minute drive to the aurora theater. Sandra those communities have gone through so much. On the ground here for us, thank you. John we are joined now by ted williams, former Homicide Detective and fox news contributor. According to the reporting in the daily beast and a few other outlets, we appear to have another case here of a person who may have been mentally ill getting their hands on a very powerful firearm. That seems to be part of the picture right now, but i have to say america is crying, we know about sandy hook and columbine and we know about aurora and we know about las vegas, we know what happened recently and now boulder, colorado, for going to the Grocery Store just to pickup groceries and go back to where they were going and to be gunned down by this coward as i would say is devastating, and im sure what they need to know is why . Why would a 21yearold man who came from syria when he was three years of age and this country embraced him would go into a supermarket and to kill and kill and kill where we have ten people, ten beautiful souls that are now gone. John there so many questions and all of this, he lives why would he carry out this heinous act of murder, how did he get his hands on a firearm and again, this idea of a history of potential Mental Illness according to an interview at the daily beast did, alissa said his brother was very antisocial and paranoid saying in high school he would describe being chased, someone behind him, someone is looking for him. We see this time and time again with people who have serious Mental Illness managing to get their hands on firearms. Thats a sad commentary about america. We have a right to have guns and a right to the Second Amendment but we dont have a right someone mentally ill of getting hands onto a firearm and going in and murdering american citizens and leaders seeing this play over and over and ive been on this network for over 20 years and i said on each one of these its going to happen again and im here to say talking on this network its going to happen again and it should not happen. We are under siege here in america when it comes to some of these mentally ill individuals getting their hands on firearms. John we should point out that in terms of Mass Shootings, this is the second one in a week, mention what happened the seventh one so far this year and it comes at a time where we see a general rise in Violent Crime in america yearoveryear, 2021 to 2020. Theres just no clear picture that we can paint right now of why this is happening at this immediate time. I dont know if this guy was mentally ill. This is going to be a big part of this investigation. John always good to get your perspective on things become a thank you so much. Tragically and it keeps happening again, people who suffer from Mental Illness getting their hands on firearms and then going in and carrying out this carnage and you wonder what has to be done to stop it . To back that community certainly focusing on that hero, 51 Police Officer eric talley who ran into that Grocery Store, 51 years old, father of seven, lost his life. Just want to quote the police chief a few moments ago and that press conference, had a profession before this but felt a higher calling and he loved his community, loved everything that policing deserves and needs and was willing to die to protect others. That is a significant statement about a man who just lost his life doing what he felt compelled he needed to do for his community. John he had seven children and the police chief said he had just been over to her office a couple of weeks prior because one of his sons was getting an award for performing cpr on his brother so what a terrible tragedy for the talley family and for the entire boulder, colorado, community. Went to the university of colorado in boulder, Fantastic Community now rocked by this horrible crime. Developing now, two North Carolina men arrested and accused of drugging and raping a woman who later died. He surpassed 1,000 is a city tries to manage massive crowds in the midst of the pandemic, more than 80 guns have also been seized by police, more than half of those arrested are from out of state. Sandra the scene playing out there, people watch this and horror like what has happened in there for any of us who have ever spent any time in miami beach over the course of our lives at a much different experience but spring break is completely out of hand and just horrible things happening there. Obviously a lot of steam that the students had to blow off after a year of covid lockdowns but this was way above and beyond. Coming up in the top of our next hour, going to be taking an indepth look at the dramatic increase in crime across this country, homicides not including places like new york and chicago are up 18 so we have a Crime Problem on our hands. The 24yearold woman who lost her life, more on that. If a crisis at the southern border where migrants are arriving faster than they can be processed only on fox, birdseye view over the migrant Holding Center in the Rio Grande Valley has customs and Border Protection releases brandnew images from inside of that facility. Meanwhile democrats starting to take notice of the dire situation, a House Delegation will be heading down to an Immigration Facility for unaccompanied Migrant Children later this week to see those conditions for themselves. Reporting live in tijuana, mexico, with more on the migrant camps that are set up. Good afternoon, what are you seeing today . Good afternoon. Im learning talking to these migrants about how strong of a grip cartels have on this community and why the migrants decided to cross illegally when they cant get there legally. We met an individual from a section of mexicos said the violence is so bad he is here with his wife and two small kids waiting and hoping to go through the process and thats not working and hes having the wait a long time. Look at the conditions, let me just show you, its been raining here this morning making it more difficult. Some people upwards of a year waiting for this process. Little sensitive here in the camp because they dont want its been a rough morning here. But talked about the threat of the cartels, listen to what emmanuel has to say. Sell part of your body are things like that and they might use you to cross drugs or do bad things and i dont want that for my family. This encampment has been here on and off two years ago but this particularly has been a growing with the migrants getting restless ever since the Biden Administration came in, theyve been wanting to cross and waiting for answers. We talked to some of the residents and Business Owners in this area and they are getting frustrated as well with these migrants. Here is a pharmacy owner victor martinez. My question every day is with going to happen with the people and killing one way or the other besides the border closed for a year. Now this. We are getting a look inside here not trying to upset people in this camp which is in a public area but releasing that venue finally, that crack in the transparency wall, it would be nice if they let the media in those facilities and not just give us pictures. Sandra fantastic reporting that you continue for quite some time, are you day along the border . It is day 18 and we will get a break soon enough and we wanted to show this as you saw the one gentleman a little upset, theyre trying to do the best they can in their temporary home because they fled their countries which they can go back to yet the proper process. It will give them a break and continue to cover the story particularly if the officials will give us a little more access, ill be right back on it. Sandra good stuff, thank you. John trying to seems to me they could have done that a while ago. Sandra getting heat on both sides of the aisle from that issue, we will have more on that coming up. Meanwhile, a massive fire at a nursing home in new york turns deadly, we will be live on the scene with the latest updates from there. Plus, can House Speaker nancy pelosi keep her Party Together to overturn a close Congressional Election . Rightly, there is concern on the other side of the aisle that this is going against everything that they have said. Otezla is not a cream. Its a pill that treats Plaque Psoriasis differently.

John one firefighter and a resident are missing, another resident is dead after flames tore through a nursing home in new york. Its in Spring Valley about 45 minutes from new york city. The buildings roof collapsed in the fire. David lee miller is live on the scene and theres pictures that We Saw In The Fire Raging was simply tragic. Thats right, this was a horrible fire but couldve been much worse, the Assisted Living Facility is home to more than 100 residents and in a matter of moments, that building was an inferno. Firefighters began to arrive on the scene a little before 1 00 this morning and this hour they are still here more than 100 Volunteer Firefighters from 23 departments hands her call, authorities have not released the identity of the resident who died, it is believed disaster struck while one of firefighter was trying to rescue a trapped resident. Both are still missing at this hour. It is methodical and arduous among the smoldering rubble. It just cant go in there and grab, you dont know where theyre going to be found so its a difficult painstaking drying process. Because the fire is under investigation, one reason it may have spread so quickly is because this facility was an old wooden structure. The Fire Coordinator describe the scene here this way, one of your worst nightmares. John when you look at those pictures and that roof collapsed and you think more people were not injured or killed, it is remarkable. David lee miller for us in Spring Valley, thank you so much. After all of the problems with Nursing Homes in new york and now this, when does it end . Sandra a tragic end to some of those firefighters and just an everyday look at the risk that they take risking their lives to go save others reminded daily. Second halfs democrat breaking with nancy pelosi trying to overturn the result of an iowa Congressional Election that a republican won by just six votes. That congresswoman reacting earlier today to her election challengers decision to appeal to the house rather than bring her challenge to court. I think its obvious now that they skipped over the iowa courts because they thought they would lose and then they would take that losing petition to the committees and will become as partisan and it disenfranchises iowa voters. Sandra Jason Chaffetz joins me now, former republican congressman of utah, great to see you and welcome to the second democrat, Dean Phillips of minnesota that broke with his party opposing this effort to overturn the election. In doing so, he said because the majority can reverse the Election Results does not mean it should so what is going on here . Nancy pelosi only ruled by the majority which is only eight votes so to try to swing one vote in her direction and remember, she lost a few seats because people went over to the administration so shes got some vacancies and she cant rule her iron fist and use that gavel and that shes got the majority so every single vote counts, now shes suggesting to overturn what was certified in iowa and put in the House Administration committee where democrats have a 63 majority and a lot of people look at that and say this is fundamentally not fair, not the way election should be decided. Sandra i thought it was really interesting, the National Republican committee reacted on fox news, the spokesperson for them and said that they are happy to see them break with House Speaker nancy pelosi, glad he took our advice he says and suggested that vulnerable colleagues should follow his lead. Do you believe others will follow suit . I do. I dont think its a coincidence that he is a congressman from minnesota adjacent there to iowa, i think the reverberations for the democrats if they steal the sea and take away what was certified will be far wider than just one seat or two seats and i think the cracks within Nancy Pelosis coalition are starting to break. You now have two democratic congressman, one congresswoman i should say in texas, both already announcing that they are retiring and not running again, not a coincidence that they represent on the border and you have this issue in iowa and minnesota congressman breaking from her as well, not a coincidence. Sandra i will end with this from the Editorial Board from the Wall Street Journal, a warning to nancy pelosi on iowa questioning if she can hold her caucus together to overturn a house election, few politicians think about longterm institutional interest lets hope they are worried about political blowback to stop mrs. Pelosi from a power play that would deepen the rancor on capitol hill. Final thoughts. The nine people that sit on the House Administration are in no position to override with the good people of iowa and the review and Adjudication System in iowa certifies themselves. It is beyond pompous to think that those nine people should be able to decide in the election of with a representative for bu for 800,000 people in iowa. Sandra what a story. Jason chaffetz, always good to see you. I remember when this first surfaced, we were talking like this is a big story. John taken in combination with the thoughts in the senate from some democrats about getting rid of the filibuster, you think wait a second, not too long ago you were saying that legitimate elections have to be honored and the filibuster is a good thing and now they are turning all of that on their head, have to wonder whats going on on capitol hill these days. Socalled woke mathematics spreading to another state, educators claiming math lessons or races and reinforcing White Supremacy because they are asking for a correct answer. Some parents are fighting back. Sandra plus, the Border Crisis overwhelming the small towns as a flood of migrants stretches their resources thin. There is a huge monetary issue, Criminal Activity, we are seeing an increase in Criminal Activity just from the ones that are foot traffic. K good, man. Mm, smooth. Uh, they are a little tight. Like, too tight . Might just need to break em in a little bit. You dont want em too loose. For those who were born to ride theres progressive. With 24 7 roadside assistance. Okay. Think im gonna wear these home. Excellent choice. [ could have been me by the struts playing ] dont wanna wake up wit on a monday morning ance. Okay. The thought of works getting my skin crawling hey, mercedes . How can i help you . I cant fear you, i dont hear you now wrapped in your regret what a waste of blood and sweat oh oh oh could have been me the 2021 eclass. Motortrends 2021 car of the year. Did you know prilosec otc can stop frequent heartburn before it begins . Heartburn happens when Stomach Acid Refluxes into the esophagus. Prilosec otc uses a unique delayedrelease formula that helps it pass through the tough stomach acid. It then works to turn down acid production, blocking heartburn at the source. With just one pill a day, you get 24hour heartburn protection. Prilosec otc. One pill a day, 24 hours, zero heartburn. Sandra the massive surge of migrants overwhelming small towns on the border is tens of thousands of people fled into the u. S. , the arizona mayor declaring a State Of Emergency blaming the white house for creating a disaster by sending migrants to his town by the busloads. Texas congressmen will join us for more on the Border Crisis in just a moment. We begin with Hillary Vaughn live in arizona. The first busload of migrants were dropped here yesterday, 16 people who had nowhere to stay, nothing to eat, not a shelter here in the mayor said hes declaring a State Of Emergency to try to get money to care for these people. What was the explanation of why here . Apparently somebody in washington got the thought that we have a bus stop here because thats what those migrants were initially told, they were telling us they were told they could buy a ticket to get on a bus. We dont have a bus. We have a metro shuttle that comes through here. So its like what are you thinking . I dont really understand what the federal government Thought Process is here, they havent sat down with the county and discuss any type of plan and they basically just said here you go, you deal with it. The mayor had to borrow two vans to take these migrants to the nearest shelter an hour away in phoenix, rode with them and when he did, asked them why did you come here and they told him that they believed they were welcomed here by President Biden had in their mind, they believe that he invited them to come here. Sandra what a story and weve heard that on multiple occasions now. Thank you. John thousands of Migrant Children are streaming at a historic rate, the Border Crisis threatening to quickly evolve into a humanitarian one. Our next guest says the inaction is Aiding And Abetting the crime of Human Trafficking of these Migrant Children. Thats a serious charge to level, congressman. Whats your rationale for saying that . It is in good afternoon, things were having me but look at the definition of Aiding And Abetting. It when our president is inviting people to come to our southern border and say we are open for business, come on in, we will welcome you with very little verification of who they are, he is committing in my opinion Aiding And Abetting and is complicit in the trafficking of persons and he hasnt chosen to reverse course, im sure he has heard the horror story from the border, he has heard from Border Patrol and others that are down there talking about this crisis but he is in denial, he is refusing to call this a crisis. I think its shameful. Our president does not put the American People first, he hasnt and he wont. John the position on it is at the border is to secure, the border was close with some democrats have a different view of it, that encompasses right there on the border as well, sheriff says that these cartels are using these children that are coming in with family coming in by themselves as cover to get Cartel Operatives across the border and they come across a family thats got three children, told the New York Post the cartels say you can cross with one child, we are going to take two children and going to use those two children to smuggle to others and pretend that those are family units. Do you believe the Biden White House fully comprehends whats going on at the border . You would certainly hope so because this is a humanitarian crisis but the media and others have interviewed these migrants coming to our southern border and talk to them and theyve heard about the Horror Stories about how these young girls and others are being sexually assaulted and pretty much being held hostage, these migrants are beholden now to the Human Traffickers and once they get in, once these migrants are released to our states and the states across our country, they are going to be beholden to them. They will have to pay their fair share and i think its a travesty and for joe biden and his administration to think this isnt a crisis and isnt happening, anyone with two eyes and half a brain can realize weve got a crisis at our southern border. John one of the other big issues is in the Rio Grande Valley they are so overwhelmed, migrants being released into the country without a notice to appear in court, that drew fire even from democratic congressman, your colleague from texas. Listen here. There were about 150 people that were released without a notice to appear. Timmy, thats unprecedented, have you released someone into the country without a notice to appear . John didnt think that there was a chance that those people were going to show up at an office to say im in the country illegally and i need a court date. Do you have any confidence that that will happen . No, and hes exactly right. He is a border town congressman. But the Border Patrol is overwhelmed, they can process these individuals quick enough, they want to just release them into our state and it is shameful and that affects the southern border towns you were talking to the mayors earlier, they are overwhelmed with this and now its reaching even further inland, now going to dallas, midland, eventually will be in kentucky and ohio because you just cant control the mall and Border Control cant control them all but this is about one party rule, this is about hr one, this is about votes in the future and he should be ashamed of himself. Im going down there next week with the texas delegation and i would invite President Biden and Kamala Harris to come down and lets listen to the Border Patrol, lets interview some of these migrants and see what they have to say and i believe that he should change course but he hates President Trump so much he will never revert back to his policies. For any reason whatsoever. John after your trip, come back on and tell us with the situation is down there, good to talk to you, thank you so much. When you look at all of this taken in total, of course these children will end up across the country because there isnt a space to hold them down there and they are showing up 10,000 per month, they have to go somewhere. Sandra the mayor is going to join us live coming up next hour, another firsthand account of how the resources are spread some finley right now, it is tough, really tough on the local mayors to handle this crisis. We will look forward to that. John just a note to our viewers, we are in a full Construction Site here today, weve got some drivers going on behind us so apologies for the noise here. The sound of a miracle working. Sandra they will continue, we will move on, oregon plan to change School Curriculum draws major backlash, wait until you hear what some of the changes they were planning for private schools.

We keep getting news about prince harry in the latest thing before this is that talk that we were married three days before the official ceremony really didnt happen. Sandra i dont know. And for a couple that said they wanted to leave the spotlight, therefore they left the royal family, they sure keep injecting themselves into the spotlight. John they do. Sandra having been at their wedding, i wish them well. Janet yelling appearing today on capitol hill delivering testimony about the massive Stimulus Plans and their impact on the economy. In prepared remarks, she is predicting a possible return to full employment by as early as next year. Anchor for fox business joins us now so couple of big things to dig in here and i know you have a lot to say but i was looking for somewhere to put in perspective the amount of spending that we already have to deal with, the 1. 9 trillion and janet yellen is saying that has to be spent and implemented correctly to have the economic outcomes intended. The ap puts it this way. It the pace of spending for pandemic aid drives 43,000 every second to pay out his Coronavirus Relief package, President Biden must spend an average of 3. 7 billion every day for the rest of the year, 43,000 every second of every day until Midnight Chimes on 20202. Its a bigger story than that because thats just that 1. 9 trillion weve been talking about so far in the past year we have spend 5. 2 trillion and weve had six different kinds of spending for the covid crisis so on top of that 5. 2 trillion, we are going to get this 3 trillion Spending Plan. In the past 100 years, there have been two great Spending Programs that equaled this. One was fdrs plan called the new deal back during the Great Depression and the other was something that lyndon b. Johnson did where it was has War On Poverty supposed to wipe out poverty. Of course, it didnt. We have about exactly the same property right now we did back then but this is of that level. The big difference between lbj and fdrs that they were extraordinarily popular, lbj by the end wasnt that popular but when he instituted his War On Poverty, he had just come out of winning one of the biggest victories in u. S. History, fdr had an Approval Rating of 70 . Joe biden has neither the support of the people nor the confidence of the people that he has the power and the strength and connections in congress that lbj had fdr had so long to be initiating a program as big as there is with just a fraction of the popularity and support in congress that they have. If sandra such a good point and you can replace that with spending and how do you pay for it . Taxes. So the Washington Post headline put up Funding Infrastructure setting up g. O. P. , the set of tax plans being considered by the white house will spur opposition from Congressional Republicans as well as members of the president s own party, republicans have said. We know how this movie ends, weve seen it before because during the Biden Obama Administration that preceded trim, we have Tax Increases coming out of that Great Recession that we had back then and slowest recovery is in history, we talked about this many times how slow the Recovery Process was. Back when lbj increased taxes to pay for his great society, that initiated a new recession, so i see this story line before. Sandra hit the bear Market Bottom during covid and thank you. Quite a recovery weve seen as far as stock prices, the s p 500 since that day and just a year its been a quick recovery and we will see if it can continue. John they are going to need to get the money somewhere to pay for this 3 trillion in spending and set up a Big Battle On Capitol Hill because you either need to do with the reconciliation or new the filibuster. He doesnt have the support that lbj and fdr did so where will he get the support for all of this . John exactly, always great to see you. As officials struggled to contain a border search, migrants and a tijuana camper speaking out about the treacherous journey to reach the United States. Fox news is taking part in a ride along at the rio grande for a firsthand look. Thats ahead. To be a thriver with Metastatic Breast Cancer means. Grabbing a hold of what matters.

Graphics producer, beautiful, hello, gino and emilys dog, a brandnew puppy 11 weeks, and english Golden Retriever and my very own pepe. Of course, hes six now but this is when he was a puppy, thats whiskey. No puppies for you . John weve resisted the temptation because despite the fact theyre twins say they will take care of the dog, we know that we will end up taking care of the dog. Sandra its amazing to see all the rescues that happened during covid so maybe they were able to take home a dog into their house. John ill tell you, whiskey has a little bit of sam and him, the Vaccine Rollout continues. Public Health Officials recommending a passport. If these Vaccine Passports are approved, they will be issued either digitally or via paper by then going to be called by all travelers to have to prove theyve been vaccinated and recovered from the virus were recently tested negative. The Biden Administration officials who support the move tell fox news this could help free americans up from the dreaded quarantine obligations. President biden has directed his team to look into these passports and see whether they would be appropriate in america but so far not everyone is on board. Listen. That is not the role of the government to hold that data and the data should be secure, the access to it should be free, it should be available both digitally and in paper and in multiple languages. And it should be open source. They are cautioning countries to be very careful when relying on these and they say the system is ripe to be taken advantage of so, so far, these passports are working in large swings of the European Union as well as israel and we will see if they happen here. John think you so much come appreciate it. Sandra Spring Breakers taking overcome a brandnew hour coming up. Ing usa. Plus from newy it lets you refi at alltime low rates plus you could take out 50,000 or more. Money for security today, money for retirement tomorrow. Refiplus. Its only for veterans and its only from newday usa. I dont need to wait another minute, let alone an hour to take common sense steps that will save the lives in the future and to urge my colleagues in the house and senate to act. We can ban Assault Weapons. I hope some are listening, the United States senate should immediately pass the two bills that cause loopholes in the Background Check system. We can save lives. Increasing the Background Checks that are supposed to occur and eliminate Assault Weapons. Sandra we begin a brandnew hour with President Biden wasting no time calling for gun control. Im sandra smith. John im john roberts in washington and hasnt been 24 hours before he opened fire killing ten people yet the president is pushing for his democratic colleagues to push through new legislation. If sandra the facts about that shooting are still coming out at this hour including new details about the suspect. In the last couple of hours, we learned he lived most of his life in the u. S. But not all of it. John the bottom line is theyre still so much we dont know including a potential motive. Alisha acuna is live with what we are learning about the heroic Police Officer who gave his life to save others. Sandra first the dramatic change in the storys direction before we even know the facts, moving on guns before we know everything so lets head to the hill where democrats have been talking about that today and also where we find Jacqui Heinrich. What are we hearing . Good afternoon. This was a litmus test for what kind of legislation could get the 60 votes needed to pass the senate, the house has already passed two bills aimed at expanding Background Checks but gun control advocates like the woman youre about to hear from told personal stories about how people got guns illegally impacted their lives, her mother was murdered but they warned against government overreach. Im a gun owner and i believe in the Second Amendment but i also know that its time for congress to listen to americans to understand that Background Checks as common sense. Universal Background Checks become a de facto registration and even if no one today is interested in confiscating those, it certainly makes it Fertile Ground for some future. Theres a big focus on Mental Health and concerns, Red Flag Laws and also some big discussions about whether more gun control would disproportionately impact minority communities. One witness made the case that gun control itself has racist roots. Groups like the nra have raised concerns about antigun bills amid the pandemic where crime rates are continuing to skyrocket but other groups Like Amnesty International usa are pushing to ban Assault Weapons and keep guns away from people who were convicted of hate crimes expecting many more hearings on this issue. Sandra Jacqui Heinrich on the hill for us, thank you. John lets go to alisha live in boulder, colorado, where we learn the suspect was just booked in the Boulder County jail. What are police now saying about the suspect and the victims . We are actually of the Arrest Affidavit and it shows that the suspect purchased a Ruger Ar 556 Pistol On March 16th and a Family Member says that they saw him Playing With A Gun that looks like a machine gun two days ago. But before we get to more on the suspect, we want to give you a little bit more about the ten people who lost their lives in the king supers behind me here. Boulder Police Officer eric talley was the first to arrive on the scene has a shooting was underway, the 51yearold father of seven ran into that store trying to save others and he lost his life. The nine other victims Men And Women ranging in age from 20 to 65, some worked at the store and some were just there on a grocery run and others were getting a covid19 vaccination. 21yearold ahmad alissa is charged with ten counts of firstdegree murder. The daily mail is reporting that he was born in syria and move to the United States when he was three years old grade in an interview with his brother, they report the suspect was paranoid, antisocial, and had Mental Health issues. Also, we are seeing in this Arrest Affidavit he was charged in 2018 of thirddegree assault. More as we get it. John some people are reporting that he told a fellow student that he attended. The latest on the story for us there, thank you. Sandra lets bring in the former nypd lieutenant and also a Law Enforcement professor, welcome, thank you. As we noted at the top, it seems as is already turning political as far as what we just heard from the president and others before we even know all of the facts, what is it that stands out to you at this moment as we learn more about the suspects involved . I think its problematic that he had the ability to go acquire a firearm with a prior Arrest Record coupled with a Mental Health issue, this is the lens we need to look through in connection with who we are for the ability to acquire firearms. Many times, we hear people such as President Biden introduced Gun Legislation or antiGun Legislation but when we look at this, cities in the United States such as new york, chicago, and los angeles, we have the strictest gun measures in those cities however we have the highest degree of gun violence so it begs the question of how effective is gun control. And we need to enforce the laws we have on the books and that doesnt appear to be the case as we look at this current shooting that happened in colorado. John just of the folks at home know exactly what it is President Biden is talking about, the two bills that have passed in the house he is encouraging the senate to take up and pass include extending the Background Check from three to at least ten days as well as what was always known as the Gun Show Loophole that would be to apply Background Checks to private sales in and of course is calling for renewing the Assault Weapons ban. To believe in this particular case any of that could have prevented the shooting . I dont believe that this would have been something that would have prevented the shooting. I look at this as a lone wolf attack and often times with these lone wolf attacks, people have various methods or means and how they can acquire a firearm. This is someone that had a prior Arrest Record and it goes back to what i mentioned earlier, we need to enforce the laws that are on the books. If you have a prior Arrest Record, you should not have the ability or capability to acquire a firearm and we clearly see this was the case in this particular situation. To make the New York Times is pointing out the murder rate in this country remains elevated is this new Crime Reporting system, it carried over to 2021. A sample of 37 cities shows murder up 18 relative to the same period last year, quite a statistic as we see what happened in boulder and now we await a motive as this investigation is ongoing, give us some color as to what is happening, what would be happening inside of this investigation to determine just that, left quite a trail on social media. One of the things we do when Law Enforcement is an encirclement of the suspect. When i say encircling the suspect, we look at the digital media, digital footprint, social media, anything that was associated with this individual, Family Members that are going to set forth the testimony, we had Family Members that have already stated that he was a person that just recently acquired a prior run and often times with Mass Shootings of the shooter is usually killed as it relates to the shooting. However, we were able to take this person into custody therefore we can get that intelligence to ensure that not only he doesnt do this moving forward but other individuals will give us a Greater Harbinger for detecting wrongdoing as a result. John let me come back to something sandra mentioned then that is the increase in crime and the homicides up 18 across the country which does not include new york and chicago, two of the worst cities in the nation and we are wondering whats behind the rise and whether it has any connection to defend the police. Ive taken lessons from these terrible events. John is there any correlation between defend the police and the crime increase not just in boulder but generally . Unfortunately, there was a correlation between the two. When you look at the democratic elections, a lot of them who lost these Down Ballot Elections as it related to their support of the d from the police movement. We see democratically controlled areas that havent been willing to introduce the necessary provisions portland, seattle, new york los angeles, chicago, there is been a Clear Pathway to the recession or the regression of this Progressive Movement and that subsequently has caused the meteoric rising. Sandra want to remind viewers we are often reminded of tragic events about obviously a political push for more gun laws on behalf of democrats right now, but you point out something that seems to be pointed out every time this happens when it does turn political when you look at new york, chicago los angeles where we are seeing the biggest spike in crimes and they have the toughest gun laws. Making sure these people dont acquire firearms breed when you look at such a tightly controlled congress and the senate and the house of representatives, it is so close and the votes are coming from partisan lines but as a result, specific to the minority communities, they are under siege, disenfranchised and elected officials are not doing whats necessary to protect those individuals and sadly enough, this political agenda is causing the death of thousands of people in the United States. Sandra thank you. John the controversial idea of reparations now a reality, an issue that congress has been considering on a National Scale and now one city has become the first to give cash payouts to descendants of. Sandra we will talk about that and tell you where its happening, where the matter could be headed next. We will get reaction from our stellar panel, juan and charlie coming up.

Supporters of the move saying it could pave the way for other cities to follow suit. Mike tobin has more live in chicago for us. Proponents say this is the first time the United States is moving in the right direction with the First Program to wear the title reparations. It is described as reparations were discriminatory Housing Policies and inaction on the part of the city of evanston, suburb of chicago but critics say this is a Housing Program dressed as reparations. The restorative Housing Program past the city council by a vote of 81 last night and establishes a fund of 400,000 with the cabot 10 million paid for with sales tax on cannabis but from that fund, black residence can get 25,000 grants. These can be used for a down payments, Mortgage Assistance and home improvement. Said the money is a drop in the bucket and it is paternalistic telling black people what they can do with their money. We are setting a precedent and i dont want that precedent to be that you can give so many black People Housing grants, money that goes directly to the bank or the Mortgage Lender and the contractor and call that reparations. The city of evanston did have practices that restricted where black people could live and own so to qualify for the grant, resident must show they were subject to that or other discrimination or a descendant of someone who endured discrimination. However, when you have a fund of 400,000, that means you can give out only 16. There are some private donations to this fund but they amount to little more than 20,000. Sandra Mike Tobin Live In Chicago for us, thank you. John lets bring in our panel to talk more about this so why dont you start us off, could this be a model for other towns and cities across america or is this a Housing Program dressed up as reparations as some critics have suggested . The criticism comes from the left on this and they say just as you heard from the city councilwoman that this is a very limited program and it doesnt allow the victims to determine how the money is used, but you have to understand also you have to decide who is eligible and in this case, the city of evanston said you have to have had relatives that were there in the early part of the 20th century and who suffered you have to prove that they suffered some injury in terms of the discrimination law. So i think for a lot of people, this is very limited but thats the criticism from the left. John charlie, what are you thinking . Obviously, if there is some issue in evanston that maybe the rest of us dont fully understand that needs to be addressed, that sounds more like a legal agreement to rectify things, real harm done to real people but if you try to expand this beyond that, and turns into pure political pandering of the most odious sort because its based in the race. The problem with true reparations is the idea that youre going to force other people who arent recipients of the reparations force other people to actually pay into this based on their race and then the recipients of it receive things based on their race and it just seems like its going completely in the wrong direction and not what America Needs especially at a time like right now where we are pretty divided right now. John the people who would be targeted with those who use recreational marijuana. Maybe they will be stu stone to know whats going on. I dont know. Another big topic i wanted to talk about of courses the democrats push to eliminate the filibuster in the senate. Elizabeth warren is now playing the race card saying the filibuster has deep roots in racism and should not be permitted to serve that function and it is majority rules. The filibuster does go back to the end of the civil war but its racist in its application these days . What about the democrats who used it during republican administrations . As a matter of history as you just said, i dont think theres much arguing with her. You look back early in the 20th century, it was used to stop antilynching laws, used to stop the bans on civil rights legislation by the likes of strom thurmond. I think her argument about race is legit, but as you just said to me, what about now . You see republicans and Democrats Use it and i think the argument there is if you have some problem with congress not getting anything done then i think you have a problem with the filibuster. For most of our history was used for once a year but in the last ten or 11 years its been used 80 times a year not to slow legislation but to stop it and at some point, we have to deal with that. John what are you thinking about this . The democrats were happy to use the filibuster, glad it was there, dick durbin said the senate would end if he got rid of the filibuster and now they want to check it off the edge of a building. Hypocrisy knows no party and knows no bounds in washington has you guys both no, but the whole point of the filibuster is to protect Minority Rights which is kind of funny to listen to somebody like Elizabeth Warren trying to test that around and turn it into something racist. Its designed to protect Minority Rights and the concern for Minority Rights goes back to the founding, all of the debates about how to structure our government were devised to protect Minority Rights and that is what the filibuster is all about, its designed so that a a simple majority does it run roughshod and that actually has to get buyin from the minorities so they come up with better larger Broader Solutions to problems which of course is what we need more of in this country. John as with many things political, where you stand depends on where you sit. Good to talk to you today. Sandra thank you. Now to the crisis at the southern border where a growing number of migrants are arriving each and every day. Only on fox, a birdseye view over a facility in texas for migrant grandchildren are currently being held and only on fox, a view on the water has Steve Harrigan is live for us on the Rio Grande River in mission texas. The customs and Border Patrol has been hesitant about showing anything to reporters and thats not the case with Texas State Police. The department of Public Safety here taking us out on one of their boats along the rio grande, you can see on the u. S. Side fence parts where there are private homes not fenced, we asked the State Troopers here what is their goal and they said our goal is to defend the border. One thing they feel is getting lost in a lot of this is with this surge in illegal migration, its also a real surge in crime. The two main crimes are Human Trafficking as well as narcotics. So thats what they are concerned about. They launched Operation Lone Star two weeks ago and they are really making a lot of arrests in the area. Hundreds of pounds of marijuana, hundreds of thousands of dollars, a lot of gangs and ill tell you to get here, we pass through a lot of rough terrain and it is just a stream of people arriving, a lot of women with small children on their shoulders as the Migration Surge is open for anyone to see here. Sandra these are amazing images youre bringing our viewers live from a 34foot texas police boat on the Rio Grande River, can you tell us anecdotally what you were hearing from those Police Officers that youre traveling with . I mention we also have the fox news fight Team Up In The Air as well from the shore, those drone pilots trying to give you another look at this very short border about 40 feet deep where i met. As far as anecdotally when you talk to the troops off the record, they say we dont want to get involved in politics but they do say things have changed dramatically here in the past year. This open season, the gates are open. Officially, we are hearing from seniors and abide in the administration that the border is closed. When you talk to the people who put the pedal to the metal, they say the exact opposite is the case, things are open and you see it, you see the debris, the garbage, the clothing was strewn all along regular pathways and signs telling people where to go to get processed. Its a regular factory in that factory is open around the clock. John its john here, thats a really dynamic look youve got at the border, combination of you being out there on the boat and the drone flying overhead. The posture of the Texas State Police quite different than the Border Patrol. The Border Patrol just taking people into custody as they come across, the gunboat there you are writing on clearly is not meant for unaccompanied children and families who are coming across the border about what is the specific task of the state police there . Youre right, i think theres a real sense of frustration that we heard on the record from Texas Governor abbott. They feel like the Biden Administration is simply botching this crisis however noble their intentions of compassion, the actual methods on the ground getting out is what they are seeing on the point is texas politicians are trying to make an State Troopers will make on the record is dont forget along with the Migrant Surge comes a surge in crime. Crime like Human Trafficking, crime Like Narcotics and those not just here on the border but they move inland with the cartels, with gangs and with migrants. Sandra just a live shot from the boat, it is amazing what pictures you are bringing us. If you could also tell us what youre hearing as far as leadership, we obviously i believe weve lost ill chat with you as we get steve back. But these pictures amazing. John i was looking at that grouting that through the river and ive been down in that area and the cell service down there is pretty touching go and thats how it was coming to us is via a unit that uses Cell Phone Notes so i was wondering how long we would keep a signal up.

Sandra something far worse than coronavirus hiding in the rowdy crowds rocking miami beach for spring break. Somewhere in the crush of partiers defying the citys curfew, police say was a pair of predators. Christine englehart was visiting south beach and two men, cops say they drugged her and raped in a motel room, then stole her credit cards and left her for dead. Phil keating reporting on this flight from miami beach. Without question, its been a challenging and unruly past couple of weeks. A really good person. She doesnt deserve anything like that to happen to her. Haley davis is talking what one of her best friends, Christine Englehart from pennsylvania, died in her hotel room while vacationing in miami beach. These are the two suspects who could be soon charged with her murder. 21yearold and 24yearold Dorian Taylor both from North Carolina. They say they admitted drugging her with a green pill going to her hotel room, then raping and stealing her credit card. She was found hours later dead. Both men were in court yesterday charged with burglary, battery, battery, fraudulent use of a credit card and whether murder is that it depends on the medical examiners cause of death conclusion. Been a chaotic Spring Break Season this year, nightly fight sometimes, crowds of people and restaurants ransacked, more than 1,000 people since early february season started have been arrested, half of them from out of state and more than 100 weapons have been confiscated. This is my last weekend city leaders in miami beach imposed a new State Of Emergency 8 00 curfew every thursday through Sunday All The Way through midapril. Sandra a horrific story, reporting live from miami beach, thank you. John now to minneapolis for the final juror has been seated in the murder trial of derek, one of the officers accused of murdering george floyd. Live from minneapolis with more for us. It was a rather problematic and eventful process to try to find these 15 jurors who claim to be impartial. The judge in this case is being extra cautious, had seated 15 jurors but they will be a total of 14, 12 and two alternates. The makeup of this jurys six white women, two multirace black women, one black woman, three white men, three black men. All self identified. The pretrial publicity was a major factor in this case, the former Police Officers Defense Attorney asked for A Change Of Venue and was denied and another significant issue has Jury Selection was ongoing here in minneapolis, across town, the minneapolis mayor joined George Floyds attorney to announce the 27 million settlement over floyds death. Unseated to jurors who said the news of that settlement was impossible to ignore and impact of their ability to be impartial. Also, we watched Jury Selection for the past two and a half weeks here, many potential jurors were questioned on the stand revealing that they could not avoid the news of that 27 million payout and some were removed because of it. Opening arguments are scheduled for next monday, minneapolis is bracing weve seen even more businesses boarding up today. In this city alone, last summer those riots and looting of the protests spilled over to other major cities like new york and los angeles. John matt finn for us.

Sandra President Biden planning a massive 3 trillion Infrastructure Deal after hes already committed nearly 2 trillion of your money as part of his covid deal. Live from the white house, a lot of zeros behind this. It is indeed. We know the white house says President Biden will be briefed by members of his Economic Team at some point this week in which they will lay out the options Going Forward before the president pair at the white house is not yet specifically confirming that 3 trillion figure and whether or not it will be a separate Infrastructure Package in a separate build back better plan the president talked about or both of those will be combined into one. What we do know was the president is likely to lean on Tax Increases to pay for the next round of spending. He believes the highest earners should pay their fair share and at the Corporate Tax rate should be raised from 21 to 20 . By and large here in washington, democrats are for another major round of spending while republicans say its time to rein it in. This kind of investment is of the magnitude, the scope and scale that needs to be done. At absolute upside down thing to do would be to raise taxes and spending. Democrats are also not shying away from the idea that they can use reconciliation with the spending Going Forward. That was the process by which democrats he was to pass the 1. 9 trillion American Rescue plan and to do it without any support from republicans. Bottom line here, beginning stages as you know a pretty big timeline to go from laying out options to the president and then have him actually sign something into law but they start that process in the white house. Sandra reporting live from the white house, thank you. John lets bring in mike braun from indiana on the budget and appropriations committees. Clearly, 3 trillion package will have to be paid for somehow. When biden talks about Tax Increases, he said no tax increase on people making less than 400,000 a year so the individuals who make up that family would get taxed if you are above 400,000 in and listen to what the Wall Street Journal said. Watch closely as biden plans unfolding a case democrats try to slip new taxes on energy, your gas tax, carbon tax that would apply even to those who make less than 200,000 as everyone knows the middle class is where the real money is and sooner or later, theyre coming after you. Do you believe that will happen . There is no doubt about it and what amazes me is how rambunctious they are in doing it. I think it puts them in payroll politically because any of us can go back to precovid and cite how well things were doing with what we had in place before. Now they are tinkering with everything because it is antitrump in their approach but in general, i think they are setting the stage. Only a handful of us here that ive actually run a business prior to becoming a senator. None of this makes sense. Ive talked to businesses throughout indiana. They will start hunkering down as part of this deal is to change the tax code that was driving the reinvestment and wages and all of that. I dont think thats going to make sense, but they will try. Sandra a quick followup to that and im sure you were asked this by the people of your state, will their taxes go up to pay for this . That little trick where they said it was not going to go up for anyone making under 400,000, the joe manchin amendment talking about not only restricting State Revenues but he and Kyrsten Sinema could have been in on that discussion as well, there are only two Security Blankets to keep this from happening, but its going to go up. The other thing you dont hereof is the fact that main street businesses got the tax break, 396 to 296. Its due to sunset in 2025 and that would be even more devastating effects the way Small Businesses get taxed. John a lot of this will be infrastructure at least a portion of it but some of the rest of the Spending Bill is Free Community college, universal prek, newly expanded tax credit, a lot of Core Progressive Policies and in order to get it through, they will either have to do this to be of the reconciliation nuke the filibuster and which path do you think they will choose . We have to take an example from covid relief package, 90 is what you described, Liberal Progressive Ideas that they threw in there. Through reconciliation which you can do, you can do it twice so theyre going to probably load as much into this this time around and if they dont, then it would have to go through regular order and thats where you would have to nuke the filibuster. So my guess is theyre going to try to you as much as they can disguise it as an Infrastructure Bill, through a bunch of other stuff in there including raising taxes. Sandra as far as that Infrastructure Bill, your republican colleague from louisiana making the case we better know whats in it. I did read where the white house is going to propose an Infrastructure Bill and President Biden promised us and by us, i mean we republicans, that he would meet us halfway. So far, President Biden has been a very poor judge of distance. With his stimulus bill, he just rammed it down our throats on the throats of the American People. I hope he doesnt do that with the Infrastructure Bill. I hope we have input on defining infrastructure first created sandra so what happened to that promise of unity on the part of democrats in this new administration . So when it comes to that, i think you need to buckle up here because we just recently have seen how theyre going to roll. Indiana we did back in 2017, we dedicated it only to roads and bridges, had a Revenue Stream to back it up that takes political will, thats not going to happen here and i think youre going to find a lot of other stuff in there that gets diverted away from infrastructure, waitandsee. John just getting going on this, good to talk to you, thanks for spending time with us today. Coming up next, we will head back to the border where one mayor says he begged the Biden Administration not to send migrants because of the lack of resources.

Call the Biden Administrations handling of this crisis a slap in the face and he is a democrat as well. Del rio mayor joins us, thank you for being here. Thank you for having me come a much appreciated. Sandra why is the response a slap in the face as you described it . During the middle of the Winter Storm Event we are experiencing, im not sure if it ever got to the president himself that week but we didnt have any Running Water or running electricity that day and we got notice they were going to release migrants into the community that were without resources were own residence so that was a Big Slap In The Face in my opinion with the response to Americans First and the community first. Sandra was happening to the resources they are in your town . Now we have to make sure that they are being controlled with police and with Sheriff Deputies and the resources are limited. Border control is trying their fastest to process migrants as they enter unlawfully and get the proper documentation. When that happens, they are pulled away from the border and the patrol and sometimes, the sheriff has to respond and hold it until the Border Control can respond. The Police Department is responding, we have migrants that are traversing and passing along the city parks, the golf courses and is overwhelming us. Sandra weve been showing pictures you provided for us of things happening there. I want to get you to describe that situation and just a minute as i hear you calling on leadership at the federal level, Kamala Harris was asked if she has any plans to visit the border and take a look at the crisis there and she responded with this.
