Surge in violent crime in americas biggest cities. Dana well talk to former Minneapolis CopSteve Dykstra about his decision to leave the force. First we go to Garrett Tenney in minneapolis today. Good morning to you. A lot of City Leaders across the country who last year got behind the defund the Police Movement are struggling to respond to a wave of violent crime and minneapolis has become Ground Zero for this debate. The Citys Police Department is down more than 200 officers from a year ago and thats largely due to a wave of early retirements and extended medical leaves following the protests last summer. So far murders are up 130 compared to this point last year. Violent crime up 15 . Other major cities are seeing the same trends as well. Murders up by double digits and more than 800 in portland. In Minneapolis Police are so overwhelmed that this weekend the mayor asked state and federal agencies to send help. The spike in violent crime is why efforts to dismantle the minneapolis Police Department have stalled. Several Community Groups have sued the city for a lack of Police Presence and blamed the City Council for the lack of public safety. Despite the absence of wholesale changes to policing there have been smaller changes to Policing Policies over the past year both here in minnesota and across the country. There are ongoing efforts towards other Police Reforms. What has changed in the last year are the conversations surrounding racial Justice And Policing practices. What remains to be seen is whether those conversations will lead to lasting change. That is what George Floyds Family Plans to talk about with President Biden at the White House this afternoon and what folks here in Minneapolis Plan to be talking about at events throughout the day. Dana. Dana thank you. Bill all the anticop Rhetoric And Push to defund police causing a wave of retirements in the Minneapolis Police force. Steve dykstra, a former officer there who left the department late last summer. Good morning. You got up, left minnesota, live and work in iowa. Whats going on back in minneapolis in the past year . What has happened . Well, i think as your local reporter just stated, that it has been a steady decline for the city of minneapolis. Crime is spiking, violent crimes especially. Things are spiraling further out of control there. Dana sir, there was the protests were nationwide, worldwide in some cases. Now you have calls for Police Reform. The federal bill seems to be on track with tim scott, Cory Booker and others working on that. There are major increases in crime across the country. In new York City up 22 , atlanta 50 , portland 800 , almost unthinkable. What do you think america has learned since the death of George Floyd, the murder of George Floyd and the conviction of Derek Chauvin . This goes back before George Floyd. Since around 2015 i know the city of minneapolis has been Back Pedaling taking tools away from police to enforce the law and keep The Streets safe. I see that George Floyd event as tragic as it was as kind of a buildup of years of Back Pedaling by the police. When police dont have any tools to use anymore, they feel pretty helpless out there. You take away loitering laws, Pursuit Ability to pursue vehicles. You dont have to stop for the police in minneapolis anymore thanks to Mayor Frey and the city counsel. So we cops get frustrated. Bill wow. We see chaos, violence and reoccurring crime. Bill minneapolis, 40 officers retired in the last year. 120 took leave of absence, 20 200 Minneapolis Police officers have left since 12 months ago. Why did you leave . I left because i saw our City Leadership, City Council and mayor give up our precinct. They had precinct evacuated before the protestors became violent and approached the precinct. They gave that building to them as a token, as a symbol. Mayor frey basically stoked the flames and encouraged the crowds to become upset and violent and he did nothing when they first the violence first started he did nothing. He told the department to use a soft handed approach, which led to what you see on your screen right now, a block in flames. And i Cant Work under those conditions. I have no confidence in the leadership. Im not going to be a stand down cop. Dana that was a community that you loved at the time. Maybe you still do. Who do you think gets hurt the most in all this . Its the victims of crime. We always talk about the victims of police violence. But there are overwhelmingly more victims of violent crime. Many are minorities. The black and brown bodies that blm is talking about are victims of crime and they need protection. Your police are there to protect them. So its kind of a a double standard, which lives matter, just the ones that are affect by Police Brutality in the rare instances or is it all of those lives including victims of crime . Bill how is your Life Today . Its good. Things are different, slower down here, a slower pace. I loved my job in minneapolis. Unfortunately i wasnt allowed to do it the way in a manner that i believed i should do it, which means bold, courageous, actually proactive. Right now its a tough place to work. You dont want to be proactive right now up there. If you stick your neck out youll get your Head Cut off as a police officer. Dana thank you so much for coming on and sharing that with us today. Bill left minneapolis and went to iowa. So you have this ongoing debate about defunding police. Qualified immunity battle that has gone on. Colorado passed it. New York City has done it as well. If you get arrested you can sue a police officer. That is getting a lot of cops hesitant to do their job. There is a very good example of a cop in action to change his life to do it. Dana and you have some prosecutors like gascon in l. A. And the d. A. In philadelphia trying the change the way you do prosecutions and prosecutors leaving as well who say they cant do their job. It is a downward spiral. Race to the bottom. Bill the debate began a year ago. I dont know if people would have predicted. Dana there was a trial and a conviction and a sentencing of Derek Chauvin. The f. B. I. Is launching an investigation into a suspicious package sent to Senator Rand pauls kentucky home. There was alert threatening violence. Griff jenkins is live in washington what is Senator Paul saying about this . He is furious and calling it reprehensible. It isnt the first time he has been the target of violence. In a statement Senator Paul said last Night Quote i take these threats seriously and i have been targeted multiple times now. Law enforcement taking this seriously. Fox news confirming the f. B. I. Legal Field Office is working with u. S. Capitol police and the Warren CountySheriffs Office investigating this letter filled with white powder and the threat attached to this image. You can see it there on the bottom. Ill finish what your neighbor started you expletive. In that image you can see a rifle pointed at Pauls Head in a neck brace, Arm Cast and crutch that follows his 2017 attack by his neighbor. It comes days after the 80s pop singer Richard Marx tweeted if i ever meet rand pauls neighbor, i will hug him and buy him as many drinks as he can consume. Last Night Marx called it a wise crack. The senator called him out and blasted twitter for allowing C List celebrities to advocate for violence against him and his family. This after remember the mob surrounding the senator and his wife last summer as he left the Rnc Convention at the White House . In 2018 Capitol Police arrested a man for making threats called into the senators office. Earlier this morning new York RepresentativeLee Zeldin weighed in saying this. If you have a deferring Point Of View and you want to disagree thats okay. But the fact that he gets targeted the way he does all the time for his passion and his principles its just greatly unamerican and unfortunate. Capitol police telling Fox News they hope to release more information this afternoon once they determine what is releasable information. Dana thank you, griff, appreciate it. Bill got a Fox News alert happening now in the middle east. Americas top Diplomat Meeting with israeli and palestinian Leaders Today amid a rise in antisemitic attacks at home.

Bill now the critics are calling out the mainstream media several outlets are now reporting more on the wuhan Lab Leak Theory. Many of those same outlets once dismissed the Idea Covid19 could have originated in the chinese lab as a crazy Conspiracy Theory. Howie kurtz tracking this for us. What are they saying today . Good morning. For almost a year and a half most of the mainstream media have dismissed the argument that chinese scientists might have allowed covid19 to escape from the lab because republicans kept pushing that possibility. Last February Tom cotton said the matter should be investigated because of Chinas History of dishonesty and it produced these headlines. Tom cotton repeating a coronavirus Conspiracy Theory already debunked. New york times. Senator Tom CottonRepeats Fringe theories. Now with more evidence emerging journalists are looking to examine the theory they threw off. Three chinese researchers at the Wuhan Lab were hospitalized with covidlike symptoms in November Of 2019 shortly before the first reported case of the virus. There have been some exceptions. New York Magazine and National Review exploring these questions months ago. Former New York times science reporting. Most journalists rejected Anything Trump says and. Anthony fauci draws enormous Media Attention and says he is open to a thorough investigation of the Laboratory Scenario that he described early on as unlikely. One sign of the new environment. The headline on the fact checker column. How the wuhan Lab Leak Theory suddenly became credible. Bill stay on that story for us. Thank you very much. Very interesting look there as we look at this. Dana i was thinking we should play this exchange at the white House Yesterday because it had my wheels turning. This is Peter Doocy our own Peter Doocy asking Jen Saukee about the investigation. Why isnt President Biden pushing for more information about what happened . We are. We have repeated called for the who to support an evaluation of the Pandemics Origin free from interference. Dana he asked about that. One of the things i was seeing was jen who has that answer, the World Health Organization or president Xi Head of the Chinese Communist Party. Who went there in January 12 months after we thought at the time that that was the point of outbreak . Dana it is completely suspicious and we may never actually know. I think people are coming to their conclusions. Bill i agree on that point we may never know. 20 past the hour now. Dana Biden Administration is considering a Mask Mandate in workplaces despite the cdc saying fully vaccinated people dont have to wear masks indoors. Could it step on the president s message for more people to get vaccinated . Dr. Marty makary from Johns Hopkins School of Public Health and Fox News contributors. This is crossing the wires, too, the united states will reach 50 of american adults fully vaccinated today. But then we have this Mask Policy that seems very confusing still to people. It looks like the Career Officials at osha that deal with occupational health in the united states may have their own ideas about Mask Mandates different from the cdc. If they go ahead and issue a strong Mask Mandate at this point it could create mixed messages and cdc has been trying to clarify their message. Were doing really well with numbers. It wouldnt be appropriate for them to do this right nou. Dana what about the schools. Some are dropping mask requirements. Cdc says maybe they shouldnt. We found out that moderna is saying its studies show its vaccine is safe for kids as young as age 12. First of all if you ignore natural immunity, which the biden Public Health officials are, the only way to get to 85 Population Immunity is through all kinds of Vaccine Mandates and vaccinating kids. And if you recognize that half of the unvaccinated already have natural immunity were at 80 to 85 of adults have that immunity and why cases are plummeting. A lot of it depends on the outlook and the path to high Population Immunity. Kids may want to get the vaccine to prevent the inflammatory reaction. About 10,000 kids got it last year. Thats something that can be prevented with the vaccine. But the risk of death in a healthy kid is very small. Dana new covid cases according to cdc the lowest number in over a year in the last few days 160,000 deaths. Still it is high, 3500. Did you think we would be here at this point . Maybe you could also address why wont the Cdc Address or look at what you are calling natural immunity . Why do they avoid that . First of all 62 of adults and about 50 of entire population now has been vaccinated so 62 of adults what about the other 38 . If half of them have natural immunity, which is very clear from the studies, were at 80 to 85 right now. Why does the Cdc And Dr. Fauci continue to ignore natural immunity and not talk about it . Let me know if you ever hear them talk about it. I think in part oats an old School Approach to medicine. To coax people to get vaccinated. They only talk about rules for the vaccinated and unvaccinated and they are alienating a large part of the american population and loosing credibility. Dana an interesting thing. We would like to have you back to talk more about that. 50 of american adults fully vaccinated as of today. That comes from the White House. Thank you so much. Bill in the meantime in news from michigan the governor Gretchen Whitmers administration doing away with the Covid Rule after she was caught breaking it. Only six people were allowed to sit together at a restaurant and tables six feet apart. Then this showed up. Whitmer was spotted with a large group of unmasked people in a bar.

Dana united states standing shoulder to shoulder with americas closest ally in the middle east. Blinken meeting with netanyahu before sitting down with palestinian leader abbas trying to bolster a ceasefire between israel and hamas. Karl rove is a former deputy white House Chief of staff. Of course in the wake of a ceasefire you have a moment to take a step back and think about how things went and where things are going. Listen to Ted Cruz last night. There are a lot of senate democrats dont want to vote on my resolution. They dont want to have it apparent to the crazy left activists who they are terrified of where they stand. Do they stand with israel or do they stand with hamas and terrorists . Dana get your take this morning. Well, obviously the White House doesnt agree with the democrats in the senate that Ted Cruz is talking about. In this one i think handled it adroitly. Allowed to egyptians to take the lead seen as honest intermediaries between hamas and israelis. The israelis had time to degrade hamass abilities and Iron Dome worked and at the end of the Day Hamas emerges from this weakened militarily and israel emerges with stronger relations with its neighbors and at the end of the day thats what will matter to israel. Now, on the u. S. Political front the democratic party, Democratic Socialist wing of the democratic party is increasingly antiisrael and problematic for the democrats. Bill Bernie Sanders said in a moment when u. S. Made bombs are killing women and children we cannot allow another huge Arms Sale to go through without a debate. Thats the 700 Million for Iron Dome and other assets there on behalf of the israeli military. However, democratic congressman from Minnesota Dean phillips says i will say the quiet part out loud. It is time for progressives to start condemning antisemitism and violent attacks on jewish people with the same vigor demonstrated. The silence has been deafening. End quote. How does this play out then . Well, Dean Phillips is a more traditional democrat. I look to ritchie torres, who is a Democratic Socialist and a strong supporter of israel. There is a divide even within the hard left of the democratic party. I dont think either the White House or democratic leadership wants to show the divide inside the democratic party and frankly the Democratic Socialist left has made a mistake by trying to have a debate over this. Bernie sanders if he tried to block the sale of arms to israel would end up on the losing side in a big, big, positive vote for such aid and small vote against it. It might be healthy. It would certainly show the current State Of Affairs inside the democratic party. There is a growing sentiment against israel but still a minority sentiment inside the democratic party. Virtually every republican and most democrats together stand in support of a democratic israel and its right to exist. Dana what about here at home . Do you think the White House and President Biden himself or the Vice President should come out and do more than just tweet about antisemitic attacks here in the united states . Is there something they can do to tamp that down . Look, i do think they need to make it clear how the President Of The United States and his administration strongly believe that tough measures must be taken. This has gone from simply being the purview of White Supremacist to now tied up intimately with the political dispute over the right of the palestinians. And what is happening now it is becoming routine to express your support for the palestinians, too routine to express your support for the palestinians by also engaging in antisemitic violence. It is shocking how routine this has become. People having dinner, people in largely jewish neighborhoods walking down The Street. The kind of assaults weve seen are deeply troubling. Bill karl, another topic there back here at home. In your state of Texas Actually. Beto orourke is considering perhaps running for governor. Here is what the a. P. Says. There is no road trip, so Soul Searching but Beto Orourke is making a political Life Decision again. Will he do it . If i were a betting person i would say he will run and ill tell you why. For the last two years since he was last defeated, in his president Ial Bid he created an organization in texas called powered by people. Here is what they said on saturday. Got an email. Powered by People Governor Greg abbott failed texans this week and declared texas would opt out of federal unemployment benefits. If abbott truly cared about workers he should be leading efforts to pay people more, provide universal healthcare and make Texas A right to organize state. That sounds to me like a Guy Running for governor. I suspect well see Robert Francis Orourke continue his consideration of the issue until later in the year when the Filing Deadline is. Right now the democrats have three sort of people talking about their nomination for governor. Robert Francis Orourke lurking in the background is Castro And Matthew mcconaughey. Dana their chances . I think they get beat. Texas is a red state. They threw so much Money And Effort last time expecting to carry it for biden, Defeat SenatorJohn Cornyn and take the Texas House of representatives and pick up at least three republican seats and they didnt win any and they spent an ungodly amount of money doing it. Robert Francis Orourke will enter the race for the third election in the row and i suspect the outcome will be the same. Defeat, defeat. Bill it was nebraska last time, iowa. He ran and blogged about it and he was doing the running thing. It went on for weeks. Are you talking about the drive across america to find his soul and understand america and think about the potentialities. He was born to do this and i suspect he is born to run a third time. Bill keep us posted in austin, texas. U. S. Marine who served in irrelevant rack is caught in the crosshairs of international law enforcement. He tried to help North Korean Diplomats Defect to another country and now faces time in prison for his efforts. Were live in New York with that story. Good morning, bill. Served in iraq as a u. S. Marine and now helps North Koreans defect and why a federal judge in Los Angeles said he is targeted for assassination by kim jongun and fears he could be killed if he is extradited to spain. 39yearold ahn faces an Extradition Hearing and charged with breaking into the North Korean embassy in madrid, spain to help kim Jonguns Ambassador in Madrid Defect as a member of the antiregime action group. Free North Korea. Spain claims they broke into that embassy and now they want him ex extradited back to face the charges. His supporters here say if the u. S. Does not block his extradition he will be murdered. He is in danger of being assassinated in broad daylight for the world to see to make the point that North Korea will indeed go to the ends of the earth to kill a Priority Target like him. Another possibility is he could be abducted, taken to North Korea, tortured extensively and then executed in public. The group has been fighting against the regime for years now by helping defectors among theme high ranking diplomats escape kyms clutches. They smashed his official portrait on the spain embassy floor. It would earn them the Death Penalty back in North Korea. Among those in his corner later today the parents of otto warmbier. Theyre expected to show their support for christopher on. Their 22yearold Son was on that educational tour when he was arrested, tortured and murdered by the regime back in 2017.

But you cannot be a product of u. S. Culture and society and not be. Especially as a white person. It is not possible. So lets get over it and quit pretending were not. Bill there is more from this lesson. A president of the nonprofit Take Charge Minnesota fighting critical race theories in schools. That womans name is jacquelin. She was born in scotland, raised in belgium. Moved to Texas And wrote a book called birth of a white nation and now lives in chicago. This goes on for about 90 minutes. Play Clip Number two, guys, first. Lets listen to more of what this lesson was about. We dont know our history. You look at High School u. S. History texts, theyre pretty terrible. And most people think well, at least white people can no, its not truthful. Bill a little more background. Kendall, whats going on here . I can tell you, bill, it is a full Throttle Indoctrination Program that has been going on now in our country for at least 10 years and it is more than that. A weaponization of our young people. Bill we reached out to the parents group. Cant get anybody to join us yet. Weve reached out to the school. Cant get anybody to explain this. We dont know if this happened during class or after class. Who was involved, how they got involved, what was offered to the students or not. There is a website, however, parents say this call for number four. We believe loyal academys recent adoption of an intolerant Identity Community is creating a growing crisis in the school. Our goal is to alert and inform parents of the Depth And Breadth of this crisis, specifically the Harm Innriktd on our Community And Offer positive alternatives. Whats the harm, kendall . How do you define that . This is not new. In fact, i can tell you two incidents here in our local community in the public School System we have an Equity Activist employed by the local School District actually justifying the Violence And Rioting in minneapolis because of the outcomes that were achieved. Forget about peoples civil rights marchs. This was a taxpayer paid endorsey endorsing violence to High School students and reported in the local news as well. Bill you are in minneapolis. This is chicago. Illinois another clip. Even if loyal academy was filled with only white people, you should still do it. You know why . Because whiteness white people have skin in this game called race, called whiteness. Nothing short of our humanity is on the line. Bill Thats Something. Here are the states that have banned critical race theory. Idaho, tennessee, oklahoma, arkansas, several others are introducing legislation and then there are a few others georgia and florida that plan on introducing it, 15 total. Where does this debate go, kendall, now that it is in schools . Sure. Number one, not only should it be banned but we need to send a different actually teaching american students about the true nature of our country. Are we perfect . Show me one country that it but the best country for all people from different backgrounds in the world. I tell people this, bill. Africanamericans are doing great in this country and they ask me what do you mean . I talk about truly africanamericans. Those that come from nigeria, that come here legally as legal immigrants earn 17 more than the Average American. Not 17 more than the average black american. 17 more than the Average American because they made a choice to come here. They havent been indoctrinated like a lot of Native Born Americans and not just nigerians. Black people from the caribbean islands. They have not been told this country is a place that is discriminatory, that is bad for black people. They are embracing the true principles of this country. We need to double down and exactly what we need to do in this country in fact, ill end with this. This is what we do at take charge. Well launch soon called the prodigal project.

Dana the defense starting to make its case in the trial of an illegal immigrant accused of killing Iowa College student Molly Tibbetts after opening statements from the defense are underway. The prosecution rests their Case Yesterday arguing for first Degree Murder charges. With the Lead Case Agent testifying Tibbetts Text messages showed she posed no danger. There are all these different factors that would push that person into a higher risk of becoming a victim. Molly tibbetts didnt have any of those. Molly tibbetts probably had the nicest Text Messages weve ever read. We had a hard time finding something negative about Molly Tibbetts. Bill Jonna Spilbor joins us. Dana now the defense has somebody on the witness stand. Where does it go from here . I think were going to see more of what we saw in the Prosecutions Case in chief here, dana. I dont expect any perry mason moment. The defense is hanging on a onetwo punch. One, somebody else could have committed this murder and two, the Prosecution Cant Fill in the middle. In other words, they can put rivera at the beginning of this crime and certainly put him at the end of this crime but the middle is still murky. The defense is hoping that middle will form the basis of reasonable doubt for this jury. Dana one of the reasons this is happening, this trial is happening is after the confession it was said that the Miranda Rights were not read properly. In other cases where that might be a factor where the Miranda Rights are not read properly how does it usually turn out . It depends. If the Miranda Rights are not read properly but after the improper reading of miranda there is discovery. In other words, the authorities could have found the evidence some other way, then typically that will come in and the Miranda Warning Violation wont matter much. In this case there is a hybrid of that. The judge did rule that part of the confession was suppressed but the balance of it could come in. Look, the Bottom Line in this case is if you had a confession alone it would never be enough to get a conviction in any case. We have so much more. We have a Confession And Video putting rivera at the beginning of this crime and we have the dna in his car and he pointed the authorities to the body. We have plenty here on the prosecution side. Dana lets Pay Attention to this and keep everybody updated. Bill everybody in iowa is watching it to see what comes in the fate of this trial. Dana it could probably rest before the end of this week and we might know before friday. Millions of americans demanding action as a rising tide of crime and violence sweeps across the nation. Police in st. Louis calling for help after shots fired during a street party. Officer trapped inside a Patrol Car as People Dance and stomp on top. Maryland a 24yearold man charged with Attempted Murder after driving a Van Right into a police station. Welcome to a new hour of americas newsroom, im dana perino. Bill im bill hemmer. Dana brazen behavior. Bill no doubt. On camera, too. Good morning to you. The pendulum is swinging back from calls for Police Reform to pleas for crime control. Burglaries, robberies, Hate Crimes just the tip of the iceberg. Murders in major american cities rising by double and triple digits up 800 in portland, oregon. We talked with a former Minneapolis Police officer last hour who says in that city, a city he quit and moved away from, moved out of the state, in fact, officers can at times feel almost helpless trying to do their job. When police dont have any tools to use anymore, they feel pretty helpless out there. You take away loitering laws, pursuit, ability to pursue vehicles, you dont have to stop for the police in minneapolis anymore thanks to Mayor Frey and the City Council. Violence and reoccurring crime. Bill Florida Congressman byron donalds and how this is affecting folks in the local community. Lets start live from the North Lawn at the White House with Peter Doocy with more. Good morning, peter. Good morning. Officials here say they think they know what the real driver of all this crime is. Is there a Crime Problem in this country . I would say certainly there is a Guns Problem and Thats Something the president would say and there are communities where local Violence And Community vieens is an issue. President bidens position has long been he doesnt support defunding the police but if people make the Policy Republicans are starting to wonder why the president is trying to get kristin clark, a key post at the Justice Department, that requires senate confirmation. But apparently the president s response to this violent crime is to have a proponent of defunding the Police Help run the department of justice. There are bipartisan Behind Closed Doors talks on Capitol Hill about reforming rules for police. Senator Lindsey Graham says he thinks that effort is on the 20yard Line and democrats seem to agree. We made a lot of progress over the weekend. We still have a lot of work to do. The great thing about this bill is that everybody wants to get something really meaningful done and i was grateful for the amount of work we got done over a weekend. For a couple weeks now biden officials had been targeting this week the anniversary of George Floyds death in minnesota as their goal for when that Police Reform bill would be done. That deadline was missed but George Floyds family will still be here for a private meeting with President Biden later on today. Bill thank you, Peter Doocy from the North Lawn. Dana over the course of the past year since the death of George FloydWeve Seen Protests demanding Police Reforms and cities slashing Police Budgets and calls to defund the poils and a major increase in crimes. Byron donald, you can see across the country in major cities the crime is up. Im wondering, congressman, how much time do you think Members Of Congress are thinking about this . I know tim Scott And Booker and bass are working on Police Reform effort. In your daytoday conversations are people aware and concerned about this . Members are thinking about it. They talk about it periodically. There are so many things going on on Capitol Hill it is not the Number One topic of conversation but the Number One place you want to put Police Reforms in place is in local departments. Many departments across the country that have gone through the Training Protocols and making the necessary adjustments. Officers in our communities who are taking time in our communities to build those necessary relationships. Whatever we get done on Capitol Hill will be additive to that. The real reforms have to come from the local level and local departments. Dana to that point this former Minneapolis Police officer who moved to iowa joined us last hour. We asked him who the increase in crime hurts the most and here is what he said. We always talk about the victims of police violence, but there are overwhelmingly more victims of violent crime. Many of them are minorities. The black and brown bodies that blm is always talking about. They are victims of crimes and they need protection. Police are there to protect them. Dana your thoughts on that . He is absolutely right. I got a text from my mom this morning still living in brooklyn, New York. She said point blank, son, you were right last summer. Defunding the police will only hurt the Inner City and only hurt black and brown families. Theyre the ones who call the police when something goes wrong. Thats what happened when i was a young kid. She didnt call the police or activists or politicians. She called the people there to protect and serve and weve already seen bigger cities trying to reverse course right now because theyve seen the disaster when crime increases because you have less officers on The Street following this radical idea of defunding police. Bill what do you think the last 12 months has taught us . A couple of things actually. Number one i think it has brought to the fore for all of americans that reforms are needed. The second thing is that we have to such as what reforms would you support . Some of reforms getting more data on no knock warrants. I dont support banning them. You have to understand the implications of why officers use it. I think when you want to look at use of force issues, there are situations where officers need more training in that and i support that. One of the things i think also would be important is that you have officers get continued psychological training and evaluations. It is a tough job. They are in Harms Way every single day and we want to make sure the mental conditions of our officers get all the help they need. Those are reforms i support. A lot of americans would support that. If you talk about anything positive that has come out of the last year those are some of the things that have come out of it. Dana if your mom is watching there hello to her and im sure she is so very proud of you. Bill thanks for coming by. Tim scott said the deeper we dive into it the more there is to talk about. We found the bottom of our tank and working our way back up. Dana there is real motivation on behalf of Senator Booker to work with him to get something done. The deadline that President Biden put to sign that Bill Today maybe it goes a week or two later. There might be something you could get done. Bill seven minutes past the hour. New Reporting Wall Street journal suggesting an abandoned Copper Mine in Southwest China may be the crux of new calls to look closer in the origins of covid as top republicans are once again demanding congress hold the chinese Communist Accountable for the spread of the pandemic. What are you hearing, jackie . You can expect dr. Fauci and dr. Francis collins to answer to boat of those questions in a hearing before the house appropriations subcommittee today. The Wall Street Journal is reporting that six miners fell sick with a mysterious illness after killing bat from that mine in 2012 and three died. Wuhan Lab Scientists found several new coronaviruss related to the mission and elevated the theory that covid19 leaked from the Wuhan Lab. Researchers dont have proof it came from there but it is all adding to calls for a fuller investigation and it follows house republicans on the House Intelligence Committee claiming there is significant circumstantial evidence pointing to a leak at the Wuhan Lab. Steve scalise and James Comer wrote to House Democrats in charge of investigations in light of new evidence and your refusal to acknowledge legitimate questions related to the Chinese Communist Party we want a full investigation of chinas liability. Biden administration has encouraged the World Health Organization to lead a fuller probe into the possibility this came from the lab but they have blamed china for not turning over all the necessary information to make any conclusions. Bill thanks for that. Wisconsin Republican Senator Ron Johnson will join us and has a lot of questions on what was going on in the lab at wuhan. Well talk to him 20 minutes from now.

Com promo dana the manhunt intensifies for the suspect who shot and killed a 6yearold in an apparent Road Rage Attack on a California Freeway. The Childs Family offering a 50,000 Dollar Reward for any information leading to his arrest. Jonathan hunt is live in orange, california with the update. Good morning, dana. You can see behind me the growing memorial for and tribute to 6yearold Aiden. The fact that were standing right now in a nondescript overpass above the suburban southern California Freeway speaks to the senselessness of the killing. Aiden shot in the back, killed by a bullet that entered his Mothers Car through the trunk in some sort of Road Rage Incident has his mom was driving 6yearold Aiden to school. The California Highway Patrol says they are interested in tracking down a white Volkswagen Sedan driven by a woman with a man in the passenger seat. They believe that car may have been involved in the Road Rage Incident. In the meantime 6yearold Aiden becomes part of a growing and disturbing Crime Statistic in southern california. Look at the figures for Los Angeles. Up to May 15th this year 521 shooting victims. Thats up 67. 5 on the same time period for last year. Homicides 129 people killed according to the lapd. That is up 26. 5 on the same period in 2020. So crime is a growing issue here and 6yearold Aiden was just one of the latest victims of what is a really disturbing Crime Surge in southern california, dana. Dana thank you. This took place on monday and were here on thursday. There is still no charges for the officers that committed a cold blooded murder. The tactic that was used was illegal. We watched a man scream for his life and we saw other officers that watched this take Place And Nothing was done. If the roles were flipped, this would be handled much differently. Bill thats from one year ago. Lawrence jones with dana days after the murder of George Floyd at the hands of Minneapolis Police officer as the City And Country mark a year since floyds death. Lawrence is with us now. Good morning to you. A lot to talk about here. We were speaking with an officer last hour and a member of congress. What have we learned over the last 12 months . We learned even though we arent with flaws of our Justice System they did the right thing and convicted him. He had a trial amongst his peers. We also found during that trial that the prosecution set it up in a way that this is not about all police. That is a nobel profession but this guy was an outlier and deserves to be punished. We also learned that we allow our cities to burn as well with no prosecution. Yesterday i did a monologue that we discussed all the money that was promised, 50 Billion to communities of color to innovate. Only 250 Million of that has been actually given to them. So again there was a lot of Virtue Signaling in the process. This notion we were going to come together. We did that as a country but this notion that we were going to invest more into communities. We havent seen a lot of that money. Tim scott is working with Karen Bass to get some legislation done. I think the spirit is great. I have also argued that a lot of these changes belong on the local level. I just came back from detroit a couple of weeks ago where i talked with a Police ChiefThere Craig who has been able to bring his community together. Detroit did not burn because he got the trust of the community. When he saw corruption in his Police Department and Narcotics Unit he raided his own Narcotics Unit but made it clear he supports his officers. The majority of them are good and thats where the conversation should be going. But he was only able to do that because he had those conversations before tragedy and on the local level. Dana on behalf of All Of Us want to thank you during those days after the murder and then all throughout this year you have really helped us be able to understand and to be able to move forward in hopefully a positive way. Thank you for that. In the meantime you are doing other great reporting. You went to austin, texas, to talk about homelessness. Here is a clip. The City Of Austin lets them do whatever they want. Leave their needles where little kids can find them and it is ridiculous. Harboring drugs and trafficking. It doesnt make sense. We as a people and as citizens are left to fend for ourselves. Do you want that to be the image of austin . One of the reasons i dont like that image, i dont think its true. A guy is walking around right outside of City Hall with a machete. Thats illegal and breaking the law. And were dealing with a tough challenge. They voted to defund the police last year and reallocate money and as such officers are leaving at very high rates. I think the cause of our illness that is taking over our city is failed leadership. Dana the crime increased in austin incredible. Murders, aggravated Assault And Everything else way up. Will there be any change there . No, there wont be any changes. I had the opportunity to talk with the austin mayor. They say there has been a culture of lawlessness that has been allowed in austin. Thats not texas. Thats not how we do even the liberal towns in texas governed by a set of principles. They govern by the law and we come together as a community. But the mayor says that he doesnt know whats going on. There are tents surrounding his City Hall. Meanwhile you have kids picking up needles at the park. You have people with machetes attacking people and there is no accountability at all. So when we talk about justice and we want to unite and we want to get rid thats one conversation. We have to also have a conversation about letting our cities go to utter chaos. If it is happening in texas, the shining state that everybody is fleeing their progressive states to come to, i think it is time for us to start having that conversation. Again, when you only have one republican thats on that City Council and dominated by liberal activist mayors. Bill theyll get their way. Thats where the problem is. Dana remarkable. Well see you tonight . On Fox NewsPrime Time we have a lot to cover. Well talk about the anniversary of George Floyd and where we go from here as a country. Bill 7 00 eastern. Thanks, Lawrence Jones. Dana Fox News alert out of the White House. Just got word that President Biden will be meeting with russian leader Vladimir Putin on June 16th in switzerland.

Dana Members Of Congress visited the southern Border Yesterday after the migrants some no sign of letting up. Harris has other travel plans, but not The Border. Well, the Vice President is overseeing exactly the same portfolio the president did when he was Vice President , which is the northern Triangle And Engagement with countries in the region how to work together to reduce the rate of migration. I expect she will make a trip to the northern triangle at some point soon so that would be where she would travel given her purview. Dana were live from The Border with the latest. Hi, bill. Good morning to you. I know i sound like a broken record but another active morning here in the Rio Grande Valley sector with Migrant Apprehensions taking place all over The Border in front of our Crew Cameras in multiple location and well show you now. An hour ago from our Fox Flight TeamDrone Video showing a large stream of migrants walking themselves into the united states and giving themselves up to Border Patrol. These are mostly family units. You see a lot of them are parents with children. Border patrol agents telling us it was a group of about 100 in total. They stretch back pretty far. Border patrol reporting to us the majority of these migrants are from romania, ecuador and guatemala. They are giving themselves up hoping to get a chance to stay. Not always the case. Video, it was a group of people in guatemala who were caught in the brush next to a u haul store. Border patrol put them into a truck. 23yearold Construction Worker came here because of poverty back home and paid a coyote 10,000 and his fifth time trying to come to the united states. He had been deported every other time. And take a listen to what he had to say here. We had an interesting Sound Bite with us and ill voice it over for you. He told me we begged the president to have pity on us and to give us a an opportunity as adults to progress, to come into this country. Unfortunately for him his odds of being able to stay here are very low. Single adult men from those triangle countries almost always sent back. A Border Patrol agent telling us he could be walked back over The Border here within a matter of hours. And the question is they catch this group, there are gotaways. This administration doesnt talk about that. Who are the ones were not catching . Thats the Big Question down here on The Border. Back to you. Dana one quick question, bill. Do you run into any other reporters down there . On a national scale, no. We ran into a local reporter here in the Mcallen Area from local channel 23. Since ive been on The Border both in Del Rio two weeks ago and here in Rio Grande Valley i havent seen any other national networks down here. Dana thats telling. Thank you. Chinese communist party knows what happens here and know who is patient zero. We need to get to the bottom of this. It could happen again. Bill suspicions growing about the origins of covid and possible links from lab in wuhan, china. A group of republicans demanding answers concerning research possibly funded by the u. S. Senator Ron Johnson is one of the lawmakers leading that effort. Why has the mainstream media taken a sudden interest in the Lab Leak story . First of all, one of their own finally issued and wrote a very important article. Nicklaus wade a former New York times Science Reporter laid out the case for a Lab Source of this virus. So now all of a signed its acceptable. The evidence of the leaking of a lab from a lab has been hidden In Plain Sight for months. But the mainstream Media Wont pick up the story. Dr. Fauci dismissed it and ridiculed it. So i think a group of senators and Mike Gallagher as well in the house we want honest and complete answers from dr. Fauci and dr. Collins. Bill when fauci was asked about it a few days ago he seemed to suggest that every theory is still alive. What do you make of that comment . He is finally being honest. But he was dismissive a year ago. You have to ask yourself why. Why did he dismiss something so obvious and ask the media why did they vilified people like Senator Cotton who came out and relayed what was an obvious truth. This is a possibility. Bill fauci as correct quote im not convinced. We should continue to investigate. Pompeo was asked the question whether or not we will ever know here he is. This would have been early January Of 2020 when we were still trying to figure out precisely what was about to hit the world and the Chinese Communist Party had gone completely dark. They wouldnt take Phone Calls or answer our questions. We sent inquiries. We couldnt get a straight answer. Ambassador couldnt get a straight answer. Chinese communist party knew they had a problem and didnt want the world to know it and they still know they have a problem and dont because us to know. Will we ever know, senator . Lets hope so. We need the full story as well. Were asking n. I. H. Director collins to tell us more about this gain of Function Pause and also the exception for national security concerns and reasons. So we ask something like 17 questions that really getting to the heart of the issue in terms of what the u. S. Government health agencies funded in terms of gain of Function Research creating viruses and how we cooperated with dr. Xi who worked at the Wuhan Lab. All this has been available for months. The evidence has been hidden In Plain Sight. The media didnt want to pick it up and dr. Fauci hasnt wanted the talk about it. When he talks about it he uses certain phrases and it increases my curiosity. Bill a week ago when you had the Back And Forth with Rand Paul Fauci suggested there was no u. S. Money that went toward gain of function. Did he not say that in the Back And Forth . Again, it was a very loyally response. You have to parse his words very carefully. Our letter is designed to not allow them to parse their words anymore. Were asking straight up questions. I hope they answer them honestly and completely. I am also hoping the investigative members of the press also look into this and start asking the same questions. Bill thank you for coming on today. We shall continue to ask the questions in due course. Thank you, senator Ron Johnson. Dana President Biden condemning belarus for diverting a P Plane and arresting a journalist on board.

Com bill President Biden saying his administration will hold belarus accountable for the forced landing of a commercial jet to detain an opposition journalist. The flight from athens to lithuania was order to the ground by belarus authorities claiming this was a bomb on board. The White House addressed the situation in a Briefing Room when asked about it yesterday. This was a shocking act diverting a flight between two e. U. Member states for the purpose of arresting a journalist. It constitutes a brazen affront by the regime. We demand an immediate international transparent and credible investigation of this incident. Bill the camera from the capital city. Increasing sanctions of belarus and banned the Countrys Airline in landing in e. U. Territory. There has been a response. Still it is early on in the story. Dana if you live in a democracy you arent safe and you could be forced down. Something has to be done. The united states can weigh in but the e. U. Better have some teeth on this. Well see. Bill we shall see if they do. Dana as many employees start to head back to offices for the first time since the pandemic began were all going to have to adjust to a new normal. My next guest called it a Once In A Lifetime chance to start over. Dr. Arthur brooks is a professor of Management Practice and host of a podcast The Art Of Happiness with Arthur Brooks and a best Selling Author and so many things. You wrote a column saying there are three things to do returning to normal. Collect your data, make a list of things to leave behind and make a list of what to keep. Why . Nice to see you, dana. One of the things that everybody is talking about right now in the wayneing days of the Coronavirus Epidemic of all the stuff they missed from the do and the things they dont like about the academic. You should think about the things you dont miss from before and that you are planning or could make a plan to not return to and the things that you actually like from the epidemic that you want to keep. Most people hate the epidemic especially the Sickness And Loss but there are certain things about our lives and relationships that weve been able to build we might like. Collect the data. What is the toxic relationships you dont want to go back to . What are the hassles and things maybe you can change your life and avoid going forward . What are the ways you have learned to live that you like and making those two lists. You really, really can come out of the epidemic better than you went in. Dana a lot of people are thinking about Work Life Balance. Many bosses eager for remote employees to come back to the office and it goes on to say many bosses said they want people in the office because they worry about losing the creativity and spontaneous collaboration that comes with physical proximity and fear a too remote Workforce Wont be able to be competitive with clients. A big shift were all going through now. How do you look at it . The truth is were never going to go back the way we were in office life. Part of the reason is because weve figured out the tools. Necessity is the mother of invention and why i love capitalism so much. We have this terrible set of circumstances and remote technologies got better. How many of us even knew what zoom was . Were doing business as zoom . Its not as good as facetoface. Does it mean we have to be 100 in the office with facetoface . Probably not. My guess is well get the hybrid models going forward. One more thing to keep in mind we talked about how bosses want people to come back. The truth of the matter is that loneliness is probably the next big epidemic behind the Coronavirus Epidemic and it sneaks up on people. Mental health crises can bloom and already have been in force for a long time before people become conscious of them. Many people are much more lonely than they think. It might not be in their own interest to have zoom forever either. Dana how about for people not allowed to come back to the office . That will be a bigger problem than people think. A lot of people once again loneliness is like a Creeping Vine in peoples lives. If bosses try to cut costs by getting rid of Office Space and telling people to work from home forever it will create Collateral Damage in peoples lives. Dana are you able to tell us something you want to leave behind if you made your own list . Yeah. I would certainly like to leave behind boston traffic. Thats not something that will be under my control. I have to say. I will actually try to change my commute time such i dont have to deal with it in the way i did before the Coronavirus Epidemic. Dana commute is a big issue. Wonderful to see you. Thank you for being with us. Thanks very much. Dana interesting. Bill nothing replaces facetoface in anything, in any line of work. Dana its good to be back in the office. I think this is a really big, fascinating shift in Work Life but perhaps these hybrid models will work as well.

Dana well have to ask angie my sister in denver to get up at 5 00 a. M. She loves space. All things space. Im not that into it. Im getting there. Im getting there. Now im worried about the ufos and now underwater which arent flying but floating. There is a lot going on. Bill how about this . Dana our first Text Message was about the Wolf Moon. I sent them a picture in january. Bill what was the would Wolf Moon . Dana it was pink or something, beautiful. Bill it didnt look like that. Florida we roll with the governor. Big tech has amassed a massive amount of power. They are monopolies and using their power to enforce orthodoxy and suppress speech and candidates that they disagree with. Were making tech be transparent on their algorithms and terms of service and criteria they use. They dont apply it fairly. Dana Florida Governor calling out Big Tech on hannity. He signed a bill allowing people from there to Sue Tech Companies and saying it will protect Silicon Valley from the power grab. We are joined live on this. It is a really big deal. Florida may be the first state to do this but i dont think theyll be the last. There is similar legislation working its way through the Texas State Legislature right now. I say its a big deal. For the past four plus years republicans have been complaining about conservative censorship on Social Media Platforms and it seems like a problem without a solution. President trump wanted to ban section 230. People quickly pointed out that if you do that, it could lead to more censorship rather than less. Also this idea rolling around congress about treating Tech Companies like utilities because you cant cut off Somebodys Water or gas because you dont like their political views but who knows if or when that will ever pass. Governor desantis did something on a State Level and said people in florida can sue Social Media Platforms if they can prove theyve been wrongfully censored and a bit of this law that says that Tech Platforms Cannot Ban political candidates. Guess who lives in florida, guys . President trump. Former president trump. More to come on that. Bill he was asked about that yesterday. And he said this is for everybody, for all floridians was his answer. Dana what about the constitutionality . You arent a constitutional scholar but Charles Cook said you might think Big Tech companies need to do something. I dont know what that is. One of the reasons Governor Desantis did this. He hosted a Round Table Discussion with several Big Time doctors from oxford, stanford, all the big schools. One of the general consensuss of that discussion was that kids should not be wearing masks. Masks do more harm than good and that discussion was posted on youtube and they removed it. So thats where he is coming from. But then some people do say this law violates the first amendment because it government is telling Social Media Platforms that they have to host something that they dont want to host. Im sure that Governor Desantiss response to that would be he is upholding the first amendment because he is making sure that everybody has the same voice on social media. Bill is there any suggestion that the Tech Companies will challenge this law . Will they do that or will other states pile on . Dana rightfully pointed out im no constitutional scholar but read some legal opinions on this and feel like there will be potential legal challenges to come. Dana all bogged down. What about the carveout for disney . I heard you talking about that before. I dont understand why there is a carveout for disney. Unless im missing something this is about Social Media Platforms. Dana a Disney Plus and streaming. It was added at the last minute. Probably not going to pass. Bill you need to go back to law school, carley. No excuse for this. What do you think . Even the threat of a lawsuit can possibly change. I have enough notes. I have three pages on it. Dana social media companies know theyre on the Hook And Theyve even said we would like some legislation, please. I think its interesting. I dont know how much time we have but i think it is interesting that some tech platforms like Mark Zuckerberg has said he wants to be regulated. And i heard somebody say this once and it has stuck in my head it would work in the favor of facebook because they are already established. If you have regulations affecting facebook and a new company, who will it affect more, the new company. Bill well done. Well catch you. Dana glad you arent a lawyer. Appreciate that. We love our lawyers but im not one of them. Bill will you watch the Lunar Eclipse . Absolutely. The Wolf Moon, all that. Bill i have an answer on the Wolf Moon. The Wolf Moon is in the winter. Dana january. Bill thats the reason why it was called a Wolf Moon because they thought the wolves howled more because it was cold and less food. Also known as the snow moon. Dana the things that we can learn. I buy that. Bill common names storm moon, hunger moon. Dana we teased the story earlier. Remember a couple days ago we said lipstick sales are up . Way up because people are taking off the mask, right, they want lipstick. Now they are actually showing there are increased sales of things like deodorant. Teeth whitening. Other beauty products. I have to ask who wasnt buying deodorant during the i dont get that. A lot of folks never left their house. Now they have to reemerge. They have to come and join society yet again. Thats a good news story. Dana that everybody is buying dee odd rant . You have a low bar for good news. I dont know if thats great news. The teeth whitening, all for it. Everybody get back out there. Bill caitlyn jenner tomorrow. Dana well be here. Bill bye. Harris Fox News alert. The city of minneapolis is at a breaking point.
