[laughter] just saying. back to normal, kind of. rachel: kind of. steve: welcome, rachel. rachel: thank you and always great to fill in for ainsley. brian: not saturday or sunday yet but you will be doing that meanwhile, john rich not only is it great to have him here. i believe the name of his band is the goal for everyone to be big and to be rich. rachel: the american dream. brian: i thought so until i listened to that u.n. speech yesterday. steve: that would be big and boring. rachel: that's so true. steve: i was editorializing. the news starts now. rachel: president biden vows to vet the escalating crisis at the southern border under control. when pressed on the issue here is what he had to say. >> president biden what's your reaction to the images at the southern border. >> getting it under control. >> getting it under control or you have it under control. >> we will get fund control. brian: we're all tired of waiting. it this as thousands of migrants are pouring over the border as we speak. plus, dhs confirms haitian migrants on deportation flights injured three ice officers and perhaps a pilot while migrants in texas overtook a deportation bus on tuesday and fled before they say being apprehended. i don't know what to believe. steve: well, apparently it's out of control if joe biden says we are going to get control of it. brian: yeah, right. steve: means it's out of control. "fox & friends" enterprise reporter lawrence jones live in del rio, texas once again this morning. lawrence, i heard a report this morning that somebody was describing the conditions on the ground there a as a third world nation. i was reading in one of the local papers down in texas, they referred to it as a fourth world country from some of the volunteers from the local churches seeing the condition on the ground. lawrence: good morning, family. you are exactly right as you guys remember, monday, we kind of told you that this was going to kind of spin out of control if the biden administration didn't get a hold to it. i was comparing notes to my colleague bill melugin who is the best reporter on the border has more sources with anyone. we were going banged forth it seems like the biden administration doesn't know exactly how to handle this right now. there was already an incident at a bus dhs bus yesterday. where you had migrants found out they were going to be deported and they started attacking the agents. then you have port-au-prince in haiti where the migrants were deported, these were single men and women, mostly men, that did not have children with them, and they decided to attack ice agents there. then you have got the homeland security press secretary that released this statement saying that they support people's rights to peacefully protest and not supporting the ice agents. one of the contentions is a lot of reporting from the national media saying that these haitian migrants aren't being treated fairly. that is not true. we talked to the sheriff right here in town. joe frank. this is what he though say, watch. >> the individuals that are down here on the bridge, they are receiving water. they are receiving medical aid. they are receiving food. every day. the other day the food ran out for the immigrants. border patrol agents ran across the line and brought their food over to get to them. so they got to eat before the agents on the ground had eaten. they ran out of food. the vendors bring two different basically two different trays of food and when they saw that they were running out of food on the immigrant side, they rushed over and grabbed the food that was on their side to give the individuals underneath the bridge. so, that just tells you the character of the people that are working down there. about. lawrence: just so we are clear, the border agents who are working hour after hour, sometimes 16 hour shifts that are not seeing their families, that are not getting the proper food. took their own personal food and brought it to the haitian migrants. when they decide to report this nonsense, it's starting to cause problems under that bridge. we have been hearing from our sources that part of what the border agents are trying to do is when they there are people within that -- under that bridge that are trying to -- trying to extract those people when the national press puts out misinformation like this, they still have phones and still communicating with folks that are out of custody or being processed and it starts to cause a riot under that bridge and put their safety at risk. guys, a lot of misinformation going out there. brian: you have a situation, too. can you imagine going to somebody's house and complaining that they are not giving you free food fast enough. really? fantastic. so, bill melugin also reports there are 332 husband and wife combos and the wife is pregnant in those combinations. so i guess we are raising those kids, too. our fault. almost 7,000 family units over 1500 single males, 493 single females. this is unbelievable that they are coming to our border and complaining about the conditions. and they are not even the refugees from haiti. they're the ones that have been living in brazil and central america and they decided because joe biden -- in joe biden's america everyone is allowed. in now is the time to come. rachel: it's not -- lawrence: brian, you are exactly right. lawrence: go ahead, lawrence. lawrence: you are exactly right. most of these folks are coming from brazil and chile and these folks it's been misreported by the national media. again, causing more problems. the biden administration says they have this under control. and continue to report the people in front of me is the texas state troopers. it is not the border patrol. the border patrol are handling processing. they want to be able to do their job. they are not allowed to do their job by the biden administration. steve: you are doing your job. thank you very much. rachel: not surprising to hear to the border patrol was giving their food. border patrol save children drowning in rivers, dying in the dessert being left by cartels. they are the greatest humanitarian organization, if you ask me, in the western hemisphere right now. they are constantly in the midst of this. look at this squaller i lived in peru as a kid that looks like aa peruvian shanty town if ever i saw one. brian: by the way you see what's happening there texas national guard sealing off the border because the federal government is choosing not to have the resources to go there. rachel: absolutely. we have the resources to do it, brian, we're just not doing it senator ted cruz from texas, this is what he told larry kudlow about the border failures. >> this is a man made crisis. you know, you showed that footage of biden at the u.n. saying we're going to get the border under control. let me give you a place to start, mr. president. come to the rio grande valley, see the disaster that you have created. we have had 1.2 million illegal immigrants since joe biden was sworn in as president. and it's the direct result of political decisions that joe biden and kamala harris have made. in particular, three decisions. number one on day one, they immediately halted construction of the border wall. number two, they reinstated the failed policy of catch and release. it doesn't work. number three, most critically, they withdrew from the incredibly successful remain in mexico agreement. steve: absolutely. and so yesterday, when the secretary of homeland security was asked by the senators up on capitol hill, you know, give us a ballpark estimate of how many people have been deported, how many we are holding and how many we are releasing. i can't even give you a ballpark. why? because he knows exactly the number. buff the number is embarrassing to the biden administration when you look right at the number and it's like well, all those people. the associated press has a story out this morning that says that those haitian migrants are being released into del rio, texas in very large numbers. they are just taking them over to the bus depot and they are getting on buses and they are given a 60-day notice to appear. go to an ice office in 60 days. we are going to trust you. until then move along. rachel: that is directly contrary to what the creation is saying. the administration says they are expulsing them. that is not true. they are not doing that they are releasing them. and even it disgruntled border patrol agents saying oh yeah they're releasing them. no, this is the a.p. who saw them released to the bus station. we know that's happening. for the biden administration, this is it an optics problem. how do we get them out of detention centers and out of this brazilian that we have created on our border right there. this is what we do. we remove them into the interior of the country, release them. we don't close the border. we don't fulfill the law. we don't will remain in mexico. everything the biden administration has done just as ted cruz has said is meant tone courage illegal immigration. brian: thank goodness for the drone team and thank goodness for the texas national guard because they are beginning to seal things off. i think the rest of the world is getting pretty horrified by it when you have to go and make huts out of reeds to protect yourself 110-degree sun at our southern border and wonder why there is unrest underneath an arbitrary bridge on the texas, mexico area unbelieve it or not the estimated number is about 600,000 are within the interior of our country. it's probably higher than that meanwhile, on the other major story you care, about gabby petino's death is ruled a homicide yesterday and her boyfriend is still nowhere to be found or was he spotted? we're live in florida as a new witness comes forward. steve: and the president speaks at the united nations focusing on covid and climate change while not even mentioning russia and china. a look at the president's apparent priorities coming up next on "fox & friends." brian: don't stop believing. ♪ don't stop believing ♪ hold on to that feeling ♪ gh, you know how i feel. ♪ ♪ breeze drifting on by you know how i feel. ♪ ♪ it's a new dawn... ♪ if you've been taking copd sitting down, it's time to make a stand. start a new day with trelegy. no once-daily copd medicine has the power to treat copd in as many ways as trelegy. with three medicines in one inhaler, trelegy helps people breathe easier and improves lung function. it also helps prevent future flare-ups. trelegy won't replace a rescue inhaler for sudden breathing problems. tell your doctor if you have a heart condition or high blood pressure before taking it. do not take trelegy more than prescribed. trelegy may increase your risk of thrush, pneumonia, and osteoporosis. call your doctor if worsened breathing, chest pain, mouth or tongue swelling, problems urinating, vision changes, or eye pain occur. take a stand and start a new day with trelegy. ask your doctor about once-daily trelegy. and save at trelegy.com. liberty mutual customizes car insurance ask your doctor about so you only pay for. what you need. how much money can liberty mutual save you?

carley: yeah, okay. that was a big deal yesterday because there was somebody who posted a picture on facebook. 550 miles away from where we are right here in north port. it's over on the florida packaged up northwest florida. it's a picture, a grainy picture of sort of a trail cam posted on facebook said i don't know if this is the right guy but it does match brian laundrie's description and the county police office there they searched all day, all night for any sort of evidence that may indicate that somebody was camping there. they say they found nobody or no one that would appear to be brian laundrie or somebody on the run, but they say they are going to remain on the lookout on that front. steve: yeah. carley, i read this morning that gabby's family family's attorney thanked the media for allowing them to grieve in private and said a statement will be forthcoming once she is returned home. when will they return her body home? carley: that remains unclear right now. they obviously had to wait for the autopsy to be done. there is also a final autopsy report that needs to be released. but i'm sure that her family is waiting to get her home so that everybody, all the loved ones can pay their final respects and hopefully they can feel a little bit of closure as they mourn together over this tragic loss. steve: carley shimkus live down in venice, florida this morning thank you very much. >> you bet. steve the president of the united states yesterday did a 40-minute speech in front of the united nations general assembly that continues here in new york city today gridlock alert day. he talked about, you know, he made it very clear his first time as president of the united states. he said the united states will rebuild alliances, although he didn't mention how the whole world was shut out from the afghanistan withdrawal or how we stabbed france in the back. he also talked about how the united states would reengage the w.h.o., the world held organization. but he did not mention the w.h.o.'s cooperation with china in covering up covid. but he did try make it seem like the united states is back. we were in kind of a bad spot for a while but now i'm going to build back better as joe biden. rachel: yeah. i think only the taliban has built back better since joe biden has been elected. but another thing being criticized for is not using the word china in his speech. he mentioned north korea. venezuela, iran. china is an interesting one. senator tom cotton from arkansas said that he wouldn't use china's name. that he was like a scared child from harry potter novel who wouldn't say involved mort's name voldemort's name. the mainstream media is finally acknowledging what we all saw -- was true from the "new york post" reporting before the lexington that hunter biden had a laptop that those emails are real that joe biden is the big guy who is getting kick backs and i believe what we are seeing even in this speech and in so many other parts of our foreign policy is a president who is compromised. a president who, if you ask me, is a national security threat. because china knows exactly what joe biden has done. and joe biden knows that china knows. and i think it is impacting our national security, our economic security. i think there are deals that could be made for the betterment of the american worker that aren't being made because joe biden is compromised and also because so many of joe biden's donors, the donor class around the democrat party is completely in bed with china. brian: meanwhile, here's a little of the speech you probably missed. >> i stand here today for the first time in 20 years with the united states not at war we have turned the page. all the unmatched strength, energy and commitment will and resources of our nation are now fully and squarely focused on what's ahead of us, not what was behind. brian: a couple of things. he chose to put afghanistan war behind in a way in which we have left people behind. nato, our nato allies have people left behind. assets, allies and citizens. we talked to scott mann yesterday. they're looking at thousands of people they are trying to get out now working with the defense department. he is the man that left 10% of americans behind. first time in history. number two, when he said relentless war instead of relentless diplomacy, what an insult that is to the previous three regimes. nobody wanted war. what they did is they had diplomacy and we had to resort to war. diplomacy is useless without force. please tell me in what speech do you give to the world who has lost millions of people and close to 700,000 americans specifically, where you don't bring up pandemic. never before again can we have a country hoist a virus on the world and not allow inspectors to come -- to do their work to find out how it started. never before should we allow a country to blow up -- to rip up an international treaty and steam roll hong kong like they are while threatening taiwan as we speak. never before should we again allow millions of muslims to be rounded up and put in concentration camps and use their organs to give to other people that are essentially huge beings to harvest organs to give to chinese people. never before again should we allow iran to hold the world hostage with a nuclear agreement that we do -- we refuse to inenforce. and i am embarrassed by the fact that i did not inform our allies that we were leaving afghanistan who were great enough to stand by us for 20 years. i am so embarrassed by that speech and the weakness that he showed and his willingness to talk about climate change and take our dollars and donate it to the world in an effort to get them to do things they should be doing if they cared about this planet anyway? we have to pay them to do it while russia and china pretend that we're in a global climate crisis. steve: i got a feeling you didn't like it. neither did tom cotton and you had mentioned something he had said. we found the soundbite. here he is with laura last night. >> joe biden walking into the united states and slapped a giant kick me sign on uncle sam's back. in particular as it relates to china. he bent over backwards to conciliate and appease the chinese communest party. said we don't seek a new cold war. china has been waging cold war against america and workers and military for decades. the question is not whether we seek one. the question is whether or not we will fight back in it. yet, joe biden wouldn't even say the word china. he is apparently too scared to even mention china's name in a speech addressed to the world's leaders. steve: and then when he returned to the oval office last night, he talked with boris johnson and is as is historic and customary is the american president will take two questions from the american press and the u.k. president prime minister will take two questions. boris took two questions and then when it was time for the american press to ask questions, the white house staff actually shouted over the people who were in our press corps. rachel: scuttled them out of there. steve: could not ask a question. brian: he has nothing to say and series of bad news. steve, at one point where he said you can ask a question but only to him. is he actually telling the press ask him a question. i don't want to do it. they laughed but he meant it. rachel: i think he had a long day at the u.n. it was. brian: he has had a long week. rachel: it interrupted his nap time and he needed it. steve: he has had a very bad week rachel and brian because yesterday a des moines register poll came out that showed that the people of iowa looking at joe biden currently give him, i believe, a 31% approval rating. he has gone down 12 points in two months. so he has had a very bad summer, luckily for him, it's the first day of fall. brian: 27 minutes now after the hour. jillian had a very good summer as we transition to fall. jillian: did i? what did i do that was the highlight. brian: nothing you did was bad and none of your foreign policy moves have blown up in your face. jillian: i will take that. that's in the win column for me. let's start off with a fox news alert now. special police officer dies after being fatally shot overnight. metropolitan police said a female cop was found unconscious and not breathing. authorities have not identified the on duty officer. police are looking for a white camry with dark tinted windows connected to the shooting. the $25,000 reward is being offered for information that leads to an arrest in the case. a republican candidate for nevada lieutenant governor is dragged out of a meeting and shoved through a metal detector. take a look at this.

>> i think the take away is that when people go to the universities, it's not the same university it was even five or ten years ago. these are indoctrination camps and indoctrination camps into a very specific set of beliefs. the longer you are there. the more certain you become in your moral attitudes. steve: what do you mean by that more certain, absolutists, right? >> that's the term the study uses the more absolutist one becomes, the danger is that people think the colleges are providing and education but they are really indoctrination centers. they are indoctrination mills. it's something we need to be incredibly mindful of because professors have jobs for life. the whole system is geared toward values that most people recognize as alien to the fundamental rudism into american sizzles. steve: peter, you said i have had it up to here. i can't go along with this. you didn't become a professor to be working at indoctrination camp. how many people who work at the universities are of like mind and think, you know, this is the way we should be going and how many people are like you, like, i can't believe we are teaching this crap? >> you know, it's worse than crap that was probably the nicest thing you can say about it it's very difficult to know the answer to that question because universities have managed to create cultures of fear under threat of constant investigation, bias response teams, diversity, equity and inclusion it's difficult to know how many people are true believers and how many people are just been cowed into silence for a parent of a child who is in college right now. they have got to understand the dynamic of what the kid is going through universities aren't truth-seeking enterprises. they are places indoctrination factories and indoctrination mills. when the kids come in there. they have a very activist mindset for them. so, truth is no longer. the north star of the institution. it's something else. it's having them believe a set of moral propositions as the study shows they have been incredibly successful with that. steve: check out his book. it's called how to have impossible conversations. we all have them occasionally and that's a good book to use as a north star on that. peter, thank you very much for joining us today from portland. >> thank you. steve: you bet. coming up on 22 minutes before the top of the hour. gymnasium owners mask mandate. the mayor will not allow an exception for anyone even those vaccinated. hear from one gym owner who says her business is bad coming up next. ♪ ♪ is struggling to manage your type 2 diabetes knocking you out of your zone?

we have even places like new york without a mask mandate in gyms? >> no. no. we got a little bit of a meeting on zoom with city counselor, but, you know, there is no explanation for why the bars and restaurants are packed shoulder to shoulder, but as long as you have food on the table or a drink in your hand you don't have to wear a mask. but our industry there are no exceptions devastating for us a sure fire way for someone not to work out. brian: absolutely. >> it's less far less comfortable than it normally is. brian: jess, if you combine forces with other gyms and welcome the economic force, we know you are, in so many communities, and where people obviously feel the same way as you. >> yeah. i mean, many studio and gym owners and myself have been in communication throughout the summer and we petitioned to the mayor to make amendment as they had in many other cities that we can check vaccination status. 98% of our -- my ridership is vaccinated we could easily tag their accounts and require vaccination either for entry or for mask removal and they shot it down with hardly any consideration. and there is no dedicated support for our industry. where restaurants and bars have gotten grants and dedicated funding throughout the pandemic, lobbyists. we are a smaller bunch. but a very vital bunch to public health and mental health of the city yet we have basically a cold shoulder. eat right. get vitamin d. work out. that's how you stop this virus. you know that we know that. i guess public officials if they were given sodium pentothal know that but it's the control that they want mostly obesity is why this virus has been successful in killing americans and people around the world. and that's what you guys fight every single day. >> that's right. brian: i hope people pay attention. >> thank you. yeah. yeah, at this point in time, in cities like boston and d.c. i feel as though it's not the virus and the pandemic that's killing our business it's the government. so we just hope that they can listen up and understand that this blanket mandate is not fair and it doesn't apply equally to different types of industries. brian: all right, jess. go work out unfortunately you have to do it in a mask. owner and operator of the handle bar cycling studios. thank you so much for joining us and hopefully people wise up. >> thank you so much. brian: you got it meanwhile straight ahead i would like to check in now with the power vested in me by everybody, senior meteorologist janice dean. i like to give you the opportunity to tell us what the weather is. janice: thank you so much, brian, i appreciate that every single time. some showers in the area across the northeast, we have a cold front that is pushing over the eastern third of the u.s. and look at those temperatures behind it. you can see the showers and thunderstorms ahead of this florida, it is the first official day of fall it arrives at 3:21 p.m. there is your forecast. a lot of warm temperatures on the map. stunt feel like fall but we will get there, 1:03 in phoenix and also watching the tropics. nothing imminent to report. by the power vested in me i throw back to you. brian: thank you very much. that's what's happening on earth today thanks to janice we all know. up next, she has served as a police officer for 33 years. now this deputy chief is making history as the highest ranked woman in her department ever. meet the officer breaking barriers. ♪ on fire ♪ ♪ ♪ this girl is on fire ♪ looks like a girl ♪ with voltaren arthritis pain gel my husband's got his moves back. an alternative to pain pills voltaren is the first full prescription strength gel for powerful arthritis pain relief... voltaren the joy of movement bogeys on your six, limu. they need customized car insurance from liberty mutual so they only pay for what they need. woooooooooooooo... we are not getting you a helicopter. only pay for what you need. ♪ liberty. liberty. liberty. liberty. ♪ when our daughter and her kids moved in with us... our bargain detergent couldn't keep up. turns out it's mostly water. so, we switched back to tide. one wash, stains are gone.

>> i think it's critical. during my time in the third precinct, which governs the area of betterwood and central. i was sent there second in command in 2016 at the height of the ms-13 gang violence. and one of the key things in that area was to do outreach in the community there was fear in that community due to the gang violence. so i think, you know, going there and speaking to the large hispanic community and addressing their concerns and fears and also asking for their assistance in helping us keep them safe and to gang violence was key. and ultimately it worked. rachel: it does work. really quick, i know morale is very low among so many law enforcement these days, what do you say to your law enforcement team to inspire them during this time? >> it is challenging times but, you know, i think going out there and just doing a good job and, you know, i think most people recognize that, you know, we are really here to improve the quality of life in the community key is partnership. help keep everyone safe. >> thank you. jillian: autopsy confirms the remains found in a campground are gabby petino. it's been ruled a homicide. >> the search for brian laundrie. steve: being released into the united states. >> this is a man made disaster made by joe biden. >> let me give you a place to start, mr. president. come to the rio grande valley. >> political reporter confirming the authenticity of hunter biden's emails. >> politico figured out what we knew a year ago. reporters around this town knew that. that's what so offends me and some americans. >> issued a warning to brazil's president. >> even if vaccinated don't bother coming. >> they want to control everything. >> e.coli a vietnam war veteran returning to the cockpit after 65 years. >> i feel like a teenager all over again. ♪ ♪ thank god i have got my friend ♪ i don't know where i would be without them. brian: starting to get back to normal in louisiana. they have been through enough as the united states of america is seeing a variety of different shots today little by little we are getting our staff back and dust off our equipment and use all the contraptions that we have left in the closet for the last two years. steve: that's right. dave running the camera rightnot unlike a year ago. it's all good. brian: absolutely. steve: let's see if dave remember, by the way rachel is in today for ainsley. rachel: welcome. steve: let's see if dave remembers he has to stay there while we read. brian: because the teleprompter is right there. if dave walks away we are stuck with nothing to say. steve: you know what? we always have something to say. brian: even if it doesn't make any sense. steve: thank you very much for joining us on this very busy wednesday. we start this hour with a fox news alert. and it turns out that body we were talking about yesterday discovered at wyoming campsite has been positively identified as gabby petino. and the coroner has ruled her death a homicide. but her boyfriend and person of interest, brian laundrie is still missing. weave don't know where he is. carley shimkus is live in venice, florida as police investigate a new lead into his current location. and carley, you know, we have done a lot of missing people stories before. but with social media and tiktok and all these youtubers out there we have never seen so many tips come in where there is video of these people. carley: thousands and thousands of tips, steve. you are absolutely right. you can see the sun coming up. there is one police car behind me likely because of the large media presence at the carlton reserve. the fbi yesterday the body found at teton national park on sunday is that the gabby petino. the manner of death was ruled a homicide. specific cause of death remains pending a final autopsy result. but brian laundrie, her boyfriend, remained the only person of interest and yesterday the search resumed for him right here at the carlton reserve. 60 officers from 8 different agencies used atvs, drones and canines, to tackle the rerelentless conditions. >> brian is very difficult. essentially -- touraine is very difficult. 75% under water. others that aren't dry we are trying to clear. carley: 500 miles away florida panhandle a possible sight a resident posted this image taken on his trail cam the county sheriff's office says they conducted an extensive serve no one and no one nothing of note was located. meanwhile a neighbor says brian acted totally normal when he came out, came home without gabby telling fox news he mowed the lawn. he and his mother went for a bicycle ride around the block. everything was just normal life once he came back. we're also learning about a camper who claims to have led the fbi to petino's body. >> so i saw brian laundrie parking his van august 26th at the creek. i also reported to the fbi what i had seen. and i wasn't 100 percent sure but now that there is dash cam footage of the van where i saw it, i'm 100 percent certain it was just him. there was no gabby. carley: she says when she told the fbi about it an agent thanked her for tipping them off to the right location. back here at the carlton reserve, police say that they are going to be resuming their search for brian laundrie later today. rachel: thank you, carley. tiktok users are both a blessing and a curse. you get thousands of tips in but also some of them aren't real and so then it's a challenge for the investigators to sift through that. but, indeed, with tiktok and i think this real trend with young women really into true crime stories. this is really made this a very unique investigation. and as you see, we are seeing video -- seeing images of him and reporting through tiktok what they are seeing. steve: so many travel bloggers taking pictures of everything. we were able to see her van by the trail which is exactly where they found her body just on sunday after a tip from a tiktoker. brian: meanwhile 5 minutes after the hour. president biden promising to get the escalating situation under control we heard him muddle something through his mask as thousands of migrants continue to pour over the border. steve: confirming haitian migrants on deportation flight when it landed in port-au-prince, haiti, injured three ice officers and a pilot while migrants in texas essentially overtook a bus and fled before they were captured by the police. it. rachel: lawrence? >> good morning, familiar. last hour we were doing a hit. you guys couldn't see it but right behind us there were actually migrants cro crossing the rio grande. we got some of that footage i want to show you guys and bring l.t. in. we have been here a couple days now. i keep telling the folks that the deterrence mechanism here is the texas state troopers right here. border patrol are handling the processing. talk a little bit about that and what we just saw here seconds ago. >> you are right on point, lawrence. we have been doing this ever since the start of this year because of surge of migrants coming across the southern border. just to put in perspective. our dps personnel have come into contact with 68,000 migrants. that's out of our normal scope as a agency. you are seeing record numbers day in and day out. not just in del rio but also the rio grande valley and the southern border. that's here with doing. surging the border with dps resources also with the to help our federal. they are overwhelmed. our goal is to come back. human trafficking, drug smuggling and also the surge of illegal immigrants coming across our southern border. lawrence: we had a rancher on yesterday. the governor's orders with lone star to help these texas landowners that have migrants illegally on the property. looking through their windows. they have seen dead bodies. talk about that project to get those folks in custody? >> so one thing that governor abbott has done. he has recognized the issue on the southern border. that is leadership right there. he has visited the border numerous times not only the rio grande valley but del rio. visited with law enforcement and officials to see what the concerns are and come up with solutions. because of that he launched operation lone star a state initiative deploying over 1,000 dps personnel to the southern border to combat these issues. in addition to that, he constructed a temporary border fencing here in del rio which allows dps personnel to arrest illegal immigrants to arrest them for criminal trespass and put them in jail. we are not doing catch and release. we are doing catch and jail. that's the from governor abbott. lawrence: when you hear the president and vice president say this is closed, what questions through your head? >> numbers don't reflect that and we saw that today. we saw that when you do not have laws in place that exist it create chaos we saw that approximately 14,000 migrants came across it was chaos. if it wasn't for our troopers this situation would be catastrophic. lawrence: all across the country the morale at the police department at all-time low. texas state troopers, morale is at all-all time high. you had largest graduating class. why is that different in texas. >> we have support from the governor and lieutenant governor and all the texas legislators. that is key to success in any operation you mentioned earlier you have to come down men and women see what the concerns are. that is leadership that is a perfect example of leadership. that's why we have been so successful and morale texas dps all time high? lawrence: thank you so much be l.t. as i continue to say texas state troopers that are holding the line and that's part of the reason why the governor and lieutenant governor was offering $10,000 with new proposal for border patrol. if they want to to work for the state of texas they have -- brian: let me ask you real quick, lawrence, what can't border patrol, what can't the texas troops border patrol can? what's stopping them from just taking over the border themselves. >> the texas state troopers cannot enforce national immigration law. they have the ability to get folks for criminal trespass but they have got to have the agreement from the landowners to do to do it. that is a semantics game. yesterday y'all may have seen the footage when i was in the helicopter and the texas state froorps were here and people were attempting to cross over they turned them to turn back around they did that the migrants you saw in the footage they had children with them. they knew they could be protected and stay in the country because of title 42 if they had those children. steve: there you go. rachel: loopholes. thank you, lawrence. brian: kids with the loopholes. rachel: kids are the loopholes. i know people who live in towns about two hours from del rio. we are really glad that people are -- the law enforcement surging onto the border thanks to what governor abbott is doing. that's leaving our communities unprotected. del rio is just one spot. they're coming from all over these other spots. it's like a balloon you squeeze it and comes out the other side. this is a massive problem again law enforcement saying come to the border, kamala, and joe biden. meanwhile pete hegseth who is also hosting "fox news primetime" all this week is joining us also the 2021 "fox & friends" grill contest winner. brian: you won two years ago with that hamburger. rachel: he won this year with a ribeye he beat my lollipop lamb chop. steve: fantastic. pete: i can't believe you haven't figured out don't throw curve balls and junk balls no fast balls, cheeseburgers and steaks. steve: i know your secret montreal seasoning. pete: on everything. steve: joe biden is in a real bind. political from the political right are going why is he letting all these people in and then now they are trying to say oh, look, we are deporting everybody back. they're not. >> they're not. steve: yesterday 38 civil rights group from the political left for the most part wrote a letter to the president and said stop deporting people back to haiti. you can't do that, mr. president. so he has got it from the left and the right. he can't do anything right regarding this. pete: no. i mean that's why he dislikes the fox news coverage so much. that's why they tried to ground the drone. the biggest problem for him on this is the visual to the american public who still believe in borders who still believe in law enforcement who think people should come here of the right way. but, who is winning out that debate? the far left is winning out in that debate because as we talk about what those amazing border patrol agents and texas state troopers are doing. and it is they are doing an impossible job. what they're doing is not deporting people to chicago. to new york dead of night. there was a great article exclusive on foxnews.com yesterday that detailed this network called ice air. and ice air is used in the middle of the night through dhs and there are air traffic controllers i have heard from who in the middle of night see flight after flight after flight land of illegals landing in those communities, getting on a bus and sent out into the community. that is still happening. and so they talk about deportation to try to make it sound like like things are happening. cessna planes with a couple dozen people on them even on those they can't control them as you hear about the utter revolt on one of them. otherwise, the decision has been made. these people are allowed into the country and maybe they will show up for a hearing a year or two later. that is their policy. make no mistake about it. that's their policy. and that picture you are putting up there right now of bidenville of that camp under the bridge which should be called bidenville, is the manifestation of their approach. that's a government holding facility. imagine if that was under donald trump it would be wall-to-wall how much he hate black and brown people. instead, tstheead, they are hopt a pass and soon these people will be throughout the united states. brian: they are focused on the way they deal with their horses and the length of the reins o the horse. that's what everybody else is focusing on which is bizarre when you have 15,000 illegals underneath an arbitrary bridge in texas. and then are overrunning buses and planes transporting them. that should be the story in most numerous in the america that used to be -- that used to be. pete: but, brian, they have got to find the one piece of evidence that wasn't even true because we know it's fake news but they are talking about the whipping of illegals at the border. they found the one piece of evidence that can try to make law enforcement look bad. try to say those are the old trump policies. those are texas state troopers; therefore, they must be trumpsters and beating those poor illegals when a it wasn't true and b, the overarching reality at the border is that it is open. so, of course, that's what they want us to talk about ultimately not what's happening in the dead of night. brian: for pro-horse law enforcement too. steve: "the washington post" talking about how that story about the horse reins nobody was abused apparently is the thrust of their story, they are just really long reins because they have got to control. brian: how else do you convince a horse to go into the water? rachel: pete, it's very quickly how quickly ilhan omar aoc jumped on this story and everybody at msnbc and cnn somehow making this comparison to america's history of slavery. brian: they are doing an investigation. rachel: i have know they are doing an investigation. where were these compassionate people when it ocomes to i haven't heard one word from them about the child sex trafficking come across our border children dying in the dessert that our border patrol rescue and sometimes find dead? or crying over their dead parents' bodies in the dessert? >> well that's not politically useful to them. why would they talk about that or 332 pregnant woman under the bridge in bidenville? why is comrade cortez not there weeping like she did at the donna facility about the tragedy, the humanitarian disaster that is -- because they -- it isn't politically add van table just. the one second a texas state trooper gets aggressive which you have to do at the border and not whipping somebody. chuck schumer runs to the senate floor and gives a speech. this is how these people operate. rachel: yeah, absolutely. aoc came to texas, remember, when there was that outage and she thought it would make governor abbott look bad to serve food. where is she? she could be serving food right now under that bridge. steve: and chuck schumer someone of the people from the political left yesterday who said you have got to stop deporting the haitians although the government won't give us the numbers. pete, congratulations once again on winning the weekend barbecue crown. pete: thank you. rachel: catch pete all this week on prime. excellent job. excellent show last night. pete: thanks, guys. appreciate it good to see you. brian: jillian, you have the other news? jillian: that's right. good morning. famed new york city restaurant carmines releasing own footage showing three women attacking a hostess after she asked for proof of vaccination. the three women charged in the assault say they were racially profiled and that the hostess used a racial slur. but a restaurant spokesperson denies those claims saying the innocent had nothing to do with race and the video shows the attack was, quote, entirely unprovoked. police in south florida are on the hunt for the man they say stabbed an elderly man outside a strip mall. the attack happening at random. investigators describing it as, quote, senseless. the victim was on the clock picking up trash at the property in miramar. paramedics taking him to the hospital. the seriousness of his injuries are not clear. chinese whistleblower claims beijing intentionally spread october of 2019. the military games could have been the first super spreader event before the world knew of the virus. >> the possibility of the chinese government using biological weapons because i knew they were doing experiments of that sort. jillian: to watch his compelling interview and others and insight what really happened in wuhan catch the documentary on fox nation. okay. did you see this?

brian: exactly. one by one he will beat up every dodger fan. steve: 7:20 now on this wednesday. a houston police officer who spent more than three decades on the force is shot and killed by a career criminal. the police union says the judge who released the accused gunman needs to resign. we are going to have that story coming up next. brian: plus congressman brian mast reacts to president biden's u.n. speech. have we really turned the page on afghanistan?

retired army ranger and florida congressman brian mast served in afghanistan as part of operation enduring freedom. he joins us now to being are a. congressman, your reaction to the president's speech? we're moving on? really? >> the president is absolutely delusional about us not being in a war. he has simply made the war far more dangerous than what it was before. lacking intention on the ground in places like afghanistan. making it a more dangerous region. ignoring the fact that we're in the greatest financial war that we have ever seen with china but never uttering a word about china in his 34-minute speech to the u.n. general assembly. and the only thing that he really talked about when it came to border where we are being invaded in our country right now was calling the climate crisis a borderless crisis and calling for reasons to let more people in and thinking that giving away more u.s. dollars funding those in south central america, haiti, other places is actually going to stop that invitation to cross our border illegally. is he missing every single war that our nation is in right now. brian: meanwhile, the taliban is looking to put their own ambassador into the u.n. they want to be recognized and grab that chair. the name was sent to the u.n. general assembly and they want him confirmed as a representative of the taliban afghanistan. should we do that? >> no. we absolutely should not be recognizing the taliban. again, terrorist organizations looking to lead our country -- their country by sharia jihadist law, not let women work. not yet young girls go school. kill anybody that they disagree with. religiously or otherwise, as we speak right now, the taliban is not just still hunting those americans and those that worked with the u.s. in afghanistan. they are actually sending out government forms, governmental ban forms to say hey, do you have any information on who somebody is, where they are hiding, when they the united states of america gathering intelligence to further their hunt for those who helped america. brian: taliban 2.0 is a lot like taliban. they have not changed at all. the women's ministry have been disbanded. women have been told to go home and not go to school and if they are going to go school it will be separately. so, congressman, were you astounded that we are now going to be a country that goes diplomacy first not war first in what an insult to previous regimes that any american president wants to go to war first? >> no, when you look at what this administration is doing, and ignoring about the threats that we face, let's look at that in terms of israel and what just happened last night where we support a program known as iron dome that has knocked thousands, probably tens of thousands of rockets out of the sky over israel intended to indesvictim matily kill swivellians or anywhere else, democrats pulled that program out of funding. why? because they fundamentally believe in supporting the terrorist hamas through a two-state solution that would become a country welcome to the u.n. just like the taliban are being welcomed to the u.n. right now creating another place in the middle east where we are going to have to go out there and probably send service members to war at some point because they are creating another terrorist country, layer that on top of iran. layer that on top of china, russia and now what's going on in the taliban, they are making the most powder keg situation that we have ever seen throughout the middle east. brian: lastly, how about sneaking this into your speech? never again will a country unleash a worldwide pandemic on the world and refuse an investigation into how it started and deny where it emanated and the origins of it? how about sneaking that in? where almost 700,000 americans died because of the irresponsibility of the cold war we don't want to start with a nation he won't mention? >> yeah. well, we know that president biden is intimidated every day that he sits in office. he is intimidated every step along the way of that withdrawal in afghanistan. leaving our embassy, leaving bagram. leaving on the taliban's timeline. we also know that he is entirely intimidated by china, refusing to mention them at all by name to call out their specific atrocities. everything related to covid, intimidation is the key factor in what's driving every single decision for president biden. and we all know that we seek peace through strength. that's how americans operate. we won't have peace because we don't have strength. and that's the fact. brian: we alienated our allies. we. emily: bare wassed ourselves on the world stage. refusing of refuses to take question from the press. congressman, continue to not forget about afghanistan. we have thousands of allies and americans still behind enemy lines. thanks so much. >> all the best, brian. brian: you got it. still ahead, country music star john rich joins the fox business family the brand new show focused on achieving the american dream. already had great success on fox nation. he has got a preview of the pursuit and this is the kentucky fried crack down men put in handcuffs for trying to smuggle kfc. finally. ♪ ♪♪ ♪♪ ♪♪ this is renae. never heard of her?

>> well, we have some things up in the near future to have some judges or prosecutors that want to become judges run against judge glass. and do something to get him out of office. it's shameful what he has done to our community. he has not held a trial in over a year. he is one of four in our system that has done that. and i think it's abhorrent that we allow this to continue in harris county with crime speaking and our citizens jeopardy. rachel: how is the wounded officer doing?

but the fact that his parents have been uncooperative, have not answered questions by the petino family, i mean, imagine if if it was their son missing and gabby had shown up in his van, they would want answers. and the fact that they are not providing any is horrible. and the fact that they have lawyered up. look, i understand that's the advice. talk to a lawyer. but, come on. we have got a girl who now has been ruled a homicide. you have your son who this is his fiancee and he shows up without her and you don't ask any questions? you don't ask where she is? what's been going on? and if you are askings those questions and getting answers, you are not providing that to the family or law enforcement? what's going on? what's really is happening here? steve: callahan, you feel it is smart while her death has been ruled a homicide. they haven't really given any details about it. but you think it's smart that they have not yet charged him. why? >> well, you know, i think because there is so much scrutiny on the case. there is so much attention both from, you know, the public but also, you know, a lot of media attention that law enforcement wants to make sure that they get this right. when they are able to get him, when they finally capture him, they want to make sure that the charges they have on him are backed by evidence and they can stick and that he is not able to get out on some sort of technicality or something else. the fact that he remains a person of interest i think is so that law enforcement can continue building this case and make sure that the charges they bring against him are appropriate. steve: absolutely. callahan, thank you very much. i know this is going to be a lead story tonight on your show in pursuit which john walsh which airs tonight at 10:00 p.m. eastern and 9:00 p.m. central as well. tell your father we said hello. >> will do. thanks for having me. steve: you bet. meanwhile, despite doomsday predictions from the left. data reveals college football is not a covid super spreader. could would he be closer to a return-to-normal?

i think we don't have a good answer to that question. >> the hardest part has been for me to accept that my best is good enough. >> follow your bliss. there is your bumper sticker. steve: well good news that show is great and you can check out the pursuit, with john rich, tonight, part one of fox business' brand new primetime lineup, and john rich joins us right now. john, good morning to you. rachel: good morning. good morning, guys. steve: so it's called "the pursuit" is that of money or fame or happiness or success, oral of the above? >> well it's based on a really simple premise and that is that america does not guarantee its happiness, it guarantees us the right to pursue happiness and every american out there, i promise you, has something in the back of their mind that they dream about doing or accomplishing whatever that is to them it's called the american dream it's why we have lines coming into the country and no lines going out. we're the only country in the history of the world that gives its citizens the right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. so i sit these people down and we learn their stories. i'm not really interested in their accomplishments. i'm interested in what's inside of them that drove them to have those accomplishments. it's meant to inspire, it's meant to remind americans what we actually still have in common , which is the right to pursue happiness i'm excited to be on fox business and let the world check this out. rachel: it's such a great concept for a show, at least i think the american dream still motivates so many people as you say to come to this country, to love this country, but there's a lot of people, john, out there, especially in the political class, who have tried to convince people that the american dream is dead because therefore, if it's dead or rigged then you need them, so did any of your guests address their concern that maybe , that the path that they took the dream, the opportunity, is changing? >> well i think there's a lot of lying going on out there right now. people want instant gratification, instant success, there's no integrity in that you're not ever going to be respected in your life if you get something instantly like that. when you grind it out you build it yourself and push through the hard times and on the other side of it, you have something that is yours that you can claim is something you built yourself. that's integrity. that's respect, not only from others but self-respect as well, and so this show, listen there's a lot of people on this show that you've seen interviewed before but you have not heard these questions and you haven't heard these answers. it's a deep dive on some of the most incredible dream chaser s in america. brian: here's a clip from your series, gavin degraw is speaking about his grandfather and also, he just donated his time and san g for tunnel to towers in a driving rain storm because it's yup a great cause at jones beach so let's listen to him and you talk about your family. >> papa russel, yeah, he's a world war ii vet, he was a messenger and radio man. they would say here, russ. they're shooting at us, we might die. take this letter, radio's not working. >> run across that field. >> and run across the field, we'll cover you. >> the sacrifice that men and women have given since the beginning of our country, so that me and you can go play music and chase our american dream. >> that's exactly right. >> papa russel and my grand daddy would have been great buddies. >> takes a warrior to make a poet. brian: talk about patriotism too. john, you're also a multi-faceted guy with whiskey, bar, you're not just playing the guitar for a living. steve: it's the pursuit of happiness. >> yeah, you know, i think we're supposed to exhaust our potential. that's how i was raised. there's billions of people around this planet that woke up this morning with just as much potential and drive and talent as any american ever had but because of where they live, they aren't allowed to be everything they can be. in america, we're allowed to be everything we can be. it's our responsibility to go and work hard and make something for ourselves. steve: listen you made a great series folks can check it out tonight at 9:00 eastern time on fox business. check out "the pursuit." john rich, thank you very much, sir. >> thanks guys. steve: all right exactly 8:00 in the east, time for the third hour of "fox & friends." >> thousands of migrants are pouring over the border as we speak. >> secretary mayorkas had few answers when pressed. >> how many people have been returned, how many people are being detained. >> senator i be pleased to provide you with that. >> i want them now. >> we're seeing record numbers. >> an autopsy confirms the remains found in a wyoming campground are that of gabby petito. >> the manner of death has been ruled a homicide. >> the search for brian laundrie has become urgent. >> president biden entering day two of the united nations general assembly facing major backlash over his speech. >> the president is dilution all about us not being in the war. he's made it far more dangerous. >> boston gym owners are feeling the weight of the city's mask mandate. >> it's not the virus and the pandemic killing our business, it's the government. >> connell mcgregor throughout the first pitch, tell me your first thought. >> the iconic wrigley field. [laughter] >> ♪ rachel: 8:00 eastern time here in new york city, "free and easy " that's denver by the way, that's the sunrise what a beautiful shot. i saw it on the screen. that's actually a beautiful shot , and so nice to be here and filling in for ainsley this morning. brian: something else is happening really strange at our station. we're seeing people in the green room, so on monday, i believe we saw, who did we see in our green room monday? steve: well on friday, we had mike pompeo and we had chris christie was here on the couch. rachel: this weekend, we had sean duffy. brian: we had mike rowe on monday. steve: right and today as things incrementally get back to normal brian: we had lindsey graham yesterday. steve: sure but we've got the walking around camera guy. right now, dave has got this gigantic gizmo strapped to his body, in fact if you could take camera 3 right now you could actually see the back of dave and he's got the camera, and we haven't had the walk- around camera, they walk that way just a little bit. rachel: there he is. that's what it looks like from our angle. brian: waiting for the call. steve: that's all. rachel: by the way, very cold inside the studio. we're getting janice giving us the weather from outside. the weather inside? very cold. i have a request from the men in this studio they want it colder and me and jillian are dying. steve: it's the end of summer moving into fall, it's just kind of humid. brian: it makes it hard to lick a pole. i'm afraid i won't get my tongue off. rachel: [laughter] steve: okay, never thought about it like that. good movie reference. brian: right that's good. overrated christmas movie nothings better than fred clause steve: that's your opinion. rachel: [laughter] steve: it's a funny movie. listen, thank you very much, this is hour three, and once again, today, this is the number one story in america and it's a fox news alert. the body discovered in wyoming at that camp site yesterday positively identified as gabby petito. the coroner, medical examiner, ruled her death a homicide. rachel: however, her boyfriend, who is also a person of interest in this case, the only person of interest, brian laundrie, is still missing. brian: all right, police are about to resume their search for him, in venice, florida carley shimkus is there. she joins us with the latest. hey, carlie. reporter: yeah, hey, good morning, that's right, brian. rachel, and steve i can confirm that the search for brian laundrie is about to get underway this morning because the sarasota county mobile command center just rolled through followed by several police vehicles and atv 's. the number of officers looking for brian has increased, about 60 officers from eight different agencies were looking for him yesterday. that number was 50 officers from five different agencies over the weekend, and conditions inside this 25,000-acre reserve are relentless. take a listen. >> the terrain is very difficult, essentially, 75% of it is under water and other areas that are dry, we're trying to clear. reporter: now, the fbi confirmed the body discovered in grand te ton national park on sunday is that of gabby petito. the manner of death has been ruled a homicide. the specific cause of death remains pending, a final autopsy result. and we've been talking about tips to police this morning. tips that police are getting and 500 miles away from here, deput ies in the florida panhandle investigated a possible laundrie sighting. a resident posted this image taken on his trail cam but the oscaloosa county sheriff's office says they conducted an extensive search no one, nothing of note was located. meanwhile, a neighbor says brian acted normally when he came home without gabby on september 1 telling fox news, he mowed the lawn, he and his mother went for a bicycle ride around the block, everything was just normal, once he came back. we're also learning about a camp er who claim toss have led fbi to petito's body take a listen. >> i saw brian laundrie parking his van august 26, at spike creek, so i already reported to the fbi what i had seen, so and i wasn't 100% sure but now there's dashcam footage of the van where i saw it, i'm 100% certain it was just him, there was no gabby. reporter: so jessica schultz says when she told fbi her story they thanked her for tipping them off to the right place, but right now, guys, the search is back on for brian laundrie, the one person of interest in this case. steve: the one person who has vanished into thin air. carlie thank you very much for joining us live today from venice, florida. rachel:, meanwhile, president biden is vowing to get the escalating crisis at the southern border under control when he was pressed on this issue. listen. >> mr. president, what's your reaction to the images of the southern border? >> getting it under control. >> it is under control or you have it under control? >> we will get it under control brian: all right, this as thousands of migrants continue to pour over the border just this morning. it's not close to being under control and it hasn't been since he took over. our team saw a group crossing in del rio, about 20 minutes ago, where border agents stopped them and searched their bags. steve: fox fox & friends enterprise reporter lawrence jones is live in del rio, architecture as joining us with more details. lawrence, we heard that the mexican authorities were going to stop anybody from trying to stream into our country but the stream is still going in the middle of the night reporter: that's exactly right, thank you so much and good morning to you all. the mexican authorities were doing that with the remain in mexico policy, as a result, now, they're telling people get out of the way, that they can't have camps in mexico, but they are allowing them to come across the country. they aren't enforcing the remain in mexico policy because the biden administration decided to rip that up. guys, back on point of what's happening right here on the ground though, it is a situation that could spin-out of control at any moment. you guys may have seen the footage that we showed earlier today at the port of prince, haiti. that plane, where i.c.e. agents were delivering the migrants from america back to haiti, they decided to attack two i.c.e. agents and what does the white house do? the homeland security press secretary decided to release a statement saying they support people's right to have their voices heard and voice their opinions, they're not backing those i.c.e. agents that are risking their lives, returning folks, and yesterday, we had the opportunity to talk with the sheriff right here in town. he decided to dispell some of those myths saying the migrants aren't getting proper food and water and he told us that actually it is the border patrol agents that are giving their own personal food to those migrants take a look. >> they're receiving water, medical aid, they're receiving food, everyday. the other day, the food ran out for the immigrants, border patrol agents ran across the line, and brought their food over to give to them, so they got to eat before the agents on the ground had eaten. they ran out of food, the vendor s bring two different basically two different trays of food and when they saw that they were running out of food on the immigrant side, they rushed over and grabbed the food on their side to give the individuals underneath the bridge, so that just tells you the character of the people that are working down there. reporter: and that's exactly right those border patrol agents are under a lot of pressure right now, giving away their own personal food. guys lastly i'll say we're at a situation that can spiral out of control and we're starting to make way to some of the migrants that a lot of them will be deported 25% of them those are the single male and females that don't have children with them, as i continue to say, that is the ticket to stay under title 42. if you have the kids, you can stay, but those other 25% are already starting to be deported and they're not happy about it. the people here are starting to get worried about those people being deported and it can spiral out of control at any moment so we're praying for the safety of not only the state troopers here , but those border patrol agents that are doing all that processing i'll send it back to you in new york. rachel: thank you lawrence such great reporting right from where it's happening in del rio, texas also joining us from texas, is karl rove, he's right here on the couch, he's a contributor and former deputy chief of staff to former president george w. bush and a resident of texas the perfect guest to come in and tell us what's happening in texas. >> it's a mess. that's what's happening. brian: democrats want no part of this story. >> none and it's amazing to me the government has an obligation to tell us what it's doing and nobody has come out and said here's what we're doing, here's how many we sent back to haiti and how many we're distributing inside the united states and the reason why we're taking some people returning them and the reason why we're parent lou ing some people to remain in the united states. we have found out, however, normally what they are doing is take and say you're here illegally but the reasons that allow you to remain is we'll give you a court date, instead they are now saying here's a notice to appear before border patrol agents which is not carry with it the same kind of penalty rachel: how do you locate them to tell them when to come to court? it's impossible. pete hegseth was just on earlier , and he said that these flights are going out into the interior of the country, with these illegal immigrants, haitian and otherwise. brian: i.c.e. flights. rachel: exactly in the middle of the night so there is your transparencies for you. if it was all on the up and up why would it happen in the middle of the day, why don't we know the number? >> i don't make much of the middle of the night because they process them during the day and they may launch the flight at 7:00 or 8:00 or 1:00 in the morning, but we need to know and you'll notice yesterday, senator johnson, from your home state -- brian: they got everyone frustrated, except for mayorkas himself, listen. >> how man ill people have been returned, how many people are being detained, how many people have been disbursed to all points around america? >> senator i be pleased to provide you with that. >> i want them now. why don't you have that information now? >> senator i do not have that data. >> why not. why don't you have that basic information? steve: well, carl -- rachel: basic? steve: the secretary doesn't want to admit the numbers they know the numbers, there was a tweet sent out yesterday and he said according to texas department of public safety, as of this morning, there were 332 husband/wife combinations where the wife is pregnant under the bridge in del rio. now, we're going to break down the numbers and figure this out. there were 6,700 family units. we know the biden administration is going to let them in. 1,500 single males they have to go back, 493 single females. >> yeah and remember this number is constantly changing because it's not like we have a static group of 14,000 people there. they're constantly flowing across the border, constantly being either returned to haiti or more likely released into the united states, and let's go back to the beginning of this though. why are all the haitians who have been by and large throughout central and south america for much of the past year, why are they now showing up? there's some kind of an organiz ed effort there and if we got to the bottom of it, i would not be surprised if it were not the cartel saying hey you're haitian, guess what, give us $1,000, give us $2,000, we'll help you get up there and you'll be home free. steve: well, carl, that's because in may the administration gave them a temporary pro protected status for another 18 months. >> right, because of the earthquake. rachel: so a lot of people speculate the reason why the biden administration has essentially opened our borders is they think in, they believe in open borders but, in the future, they will benefit politically from all these new immigrants who are illegal immigrants who will eventually be voters. my question to you, because you know the politics texas is a hot ly contested state. a lot of democrats dream of taking texas. what are the politics in texas of this. are there enough migrants to turn that or are they turning off democrats in such great numb berms that it's not that. >> in physics i think it's a newton law for every action there's an opposite reaction. just remember what are the counties in america that move more dramatically towards the republicans in 2020 as compared to 2016 and you'll find a bunch are they heavily hispanic counties among the rio grande river, part of it was energy, but a lot of it was wait a minute it's our communities who are being adversely affected first by illegal immigration. it's our hospitals. it's our social services. it's our compassion. it's the safety of our neighborhoods that's being affected and that was a big reason why a lot of tehanos said i'm voting republican because they are saying we ought to have a border. we came here legally or through a process, these people are not and they're hurting our communities. brian: 56% of texas residents were asked, the hispanic texas residents were asked about the performance of president biden. 56% disapproved of his performance in texas. that's not a good sign if you want to turn texas blue. >> no and look, we got robert front says getting ready to run for governor, he's about as far left wing as he can, he will not be well received in a generally conserve conservative community that is pro life, pro military, pro america, pro small business, pro enterprise. brian: he's got a lot of money. >> we'll see. rachel: there are real consequences i have a friend who lives in mission, texas, who says that hospitals are absolutely overwhelmed and that american children are having to travel 100 miles away. >> to corpus cristi. rachel: for services in their local hospitals are full with illegal immigrants. >> absolutely true, i was in corpus cristi and somebody said we've got a lot of people coming up for elective surgery at our hospitals because they can't be taken carolina of. steve: so donald trump pretty much stopped the flow at the end of his administration and joe biden turned it back on. obviously when you're the president you have vast power over how the laws in the united states are implement ed but ultimately if people want to get anything changed, and when you were in the bush administration, george bush tried to get immigration reform done, and you know, for a variety of reasons he couldn't even get his own party. >> it wasn't his own party that killed it, it was president barack obama and then senator obama who promised to support confidence of immigration reform voting for all of the killer amendments offered by democratic senator of north dakota helped by senator harry reid. steve: so how do we fix it? >> first you've got to start by border security. it took us four years or almost five years to end catch and release, to get in place all of the processes necessary to say to people, if you come here, you're not going to be able to be released out into society and escape consequences so first thing you got to do is secure the border that's why it's smart for governor abbott to say if the federal government will not spend the money to build the wall we'll spend $2 billion of texas money to build the wall and the unfinished places in order to get better control over our border and it's why texas is spending tens, if not hundreds of millions of dollars additional law enforcement because it's our community being affected and the federal government under this administration will not step up and do the job it's responsible for. brian: that drone team has put more pressure on the biden administration than anything else, because no one -- >> that and that smart young reporter at the white house named peter doocy. who is that guy anyway, where did he come from? steve: he's got really good hair , just saying. carl thank you very much. >> great to see you. steve: 8:18 in the east jillian joins us with more headlines. jillian: let's gina with a fox news alert. a washington d.c. special police officer dies after being shot overnight. a female cop was found unconscious and authorities have not identified the on duty officer. police are looking for a white camry with dark tinted windows connected to the shooting. a $25,000 reward is being offer ed for information that leads to an arrest in the case. >> keeping doors open is a heavy lift for gym owners in boston. they claim the cities mask mandate is hitting thin industry harder than others and the mayor rejected their request for vaccinated gym members to be exempt from the cities mask mandate and one of the owners joined us earlier. >> boston and d.c. i feel as though it's not the virus and the pandemic that's killing our business. it's the government. i just hope they can listen up and understand the blanket mandate is not fair. jillian: she says she and her fellow business owners plan to continue fighting boston's mask mandate for gyms. >> a new trend is emerging on social media that aims to combat mischief, users are now hiding expensive goods like tv's and ipads and even money inside public restrooms. wondering why? well, it's because teens are going around destroying and stealing school property like bathroom soap, dispensers and things like that. schools even closing restrooms to prevent it from happening. odd but okay. send it back to you. i'm so out of it. i don't know what's going on online. steve: i don't get that either, jillian, thank you. coming up next on this wednesday covid-19 hysteria sparking chaos across the country, one republican candidate for nevada, lt. governor is violently dragged out of a covid meeting for taking a stand against his left-leaning county. brian: but we're not done there plus, dr. fauci predicted football stadiums would send covid cases soaring but guess what the cdc data is calling that a fumble! outkick founder clay travis says dream on, fauci! he joins us, live. >> ♪ hi, i'm debra. i'm from colorado. i've been married to my high school sweetheart for 35 years. i'm a mother of four-- always busy. i was starting to feel a little foggy. just didn't feel like things were as sharp as i knew they once were. i heard about prevagen and then i started taking it about two years now. started noticing things a little sharper, a little clearer. i feel like it's kept me on my game. i'm able to remember things. i'd say give it a try. prevagen. healthier brain. better life. incomparable design makes it beautiful. state of the art technology makes it brilliant. the lexus nx. experience the crossover in its most visionary form. experience amazing at your lexus dealer. liberty mutual customizes car insurance so you only pay for what you need. how much money can liberty mutual save you?

>> that's exactly what occurred to me when i first saw this footage. we've all seen in recent days and indeed weeks, the appalling scenes from australia where law enforcement, police officers and others have been battering crowds and firing bullets at crowds who are disobeying the covid restrictions in that country and when i first saw this footage of mr. miller, i immediately thought of that. this looks like something from australia, but not something from america. rachel: yeah it's really scary. i've been talking to people, douglas, as well as some of my college-aged children. what concerns me about all of this is that we aren't, especially young people, aren't concerned with these regulations , that they're accepting this kind of, i don't know, it feels like almost like a police state when it comes to covid. they are accepting the mandates, they're submitting so easily, is this what our futures going to look like, because it seems like it's only those of us who are middle age who are going this was america, reweb, but for our young people we're normalizing this kind of infringement on our first amendment. >> well exactly. obviously, a lot of people, most people, including most young people, want to get going again, they recognize that the vaccine is the best way out of the eternal lockdowns we otherwise might face, so it's understandable that there's an impetus to want to just get going again and to do what you need to do to make that happen, but understandably, and a perfectly serious segment of the population says no, there are limits to this , as well, and what we see in scenes like this from nevada, as with the scenes from australia, are the moment when the so-called cure is worse than the disease. this is when the cure becomes worse than the disease, when security and police and other officials start to harm members of the public in the name of defending the public health, that's when the cure becomes worse than the disease, but many people have seen that coming, many people have worried about that. that is where we are in a situation like this , in nevada. that's why so many people are worried about it and that's why, frankly, these attempts to sort of shut this down, which is what apparently mr. miller was protesting against in nevada, is such a bad idea. you can't shutdown public concern, you have to listen to it and you certainly can't manhandle the public. rachel: douglas i've been so worried that we were going to come out of this pandemic more like china than america and i think that my concerns are coming true. thank you so much for joining us this morning. >> it's a great pleasure. rachel: likewise. a long island committee is mourn ing the loss of 22-year-old gabby petito, whose death was ruled a homicide. new york congressman lee zeldin is from that same county as petito's family and he joins us next, with his call, for justice. science to show that the toothpaste goes deep inside the exposed dentin to help repair sensitive teeth. my patients are able to have that quality of life back. i recommend sensodyne repair and protect with deep repair. aaaand welcome back to guess the price. sal. what do you do?

steve: new york gubernatorial candidate lee zeldin is from the same county as petito's family in new york, and is demanding justice, he joins us live. congressman, good morning to you >> good morning, great to be with you. steve: do you know what? people all around the world are paying attention to the story because there's just something about it that it's so compelling and now, we got the bad news yesterday that she had been murdered. >> right. well, it's good that gabby was found. there was, though, many, including her family and friends , holding out hope. the investigation that now has evolved, unfortunately, missed an opportunity where they had the fiancee in a house, he clearly was a flight risk, he wasn't cooperating, the questioning that could have been done there instead of spending days to get his story straight, that was just a critically important missed opportunity. now, they're hunting for gabby's fiancee. i sure hope that they find him quickly, that we get answers, that there's a prosecution, that people are brought to justice, but the community that gabby, her family is from, blue point, in suffolk county, is the salt of the earth, it's cops, teacher s, they're close if one person is murdered it's felt by all. i've spent halloweens walking the streets of blue point. it's one of those communities where everybody is out and they know each other. i live just a few minutes east of there, and i've heard from many people from blue point who have taken this really hard but as you pointed out it's not just the blue point community and all around the country but even internationally. rachel: congressman, for those who don't know this we are family friends, and so your diagnosis with la keep yeah and your recovery is especially meaningful to me, tell me how you are doing and also, how it is impacting your race for governor. >> i'm feeling fantastic. last november, routine blood tests got an early diagnosis of what's called chronic myeloid leukemia. fortunately it was caught early. early detection is key. if anybody out there is not feeling good, something maybe wrong, go to a doctor, because it's so much harder to treat these illnesses when they get further along, but i went right to an on cold o gist, got a second opinion, started treatment, body responded well to treatment by the time i decided to run for governor and launch my campaign i was already in blood remission, at no point did it impact my congressional duties, my activities traveling around the state. i feel good. brian: great. rachel: happy to hear that. brian: good luck getting the nomination going forward a lot of people think you're the best hope republicans have of winning the state. meanwhile, there's something else i know hits home with you as someone who serves in the military and is pro israel. aoc and the squad forced the democrats to remove $1 billion of funding for israel 's iron dome which saved so many lives because it knocks the rockets out of the sky. what's your reaction to that? >> it saves lives, it's defensive and there to defend civilians who are being attacked we just saw this play out a few months ago as hamas terrorists were launching rockets at israel i coach in the house republican israel caucus. i view the alliance between the united states and israel to be important. i think it's very telling that this is the stand, not lighting your hair on fire with regards to billions of u.s. weapons and equipment going to the taliban. lighting their hair on fire with regards to a state-of-the-art piece of equipment, a strategic alliance, a partnership that helps us, i think it's very telling that the democrats have folded on this. rachel: very revealing, in fact. brian: devastating to the alliance and it just shows you what party is with israel and what is not. flat out, they are letting you know. congressman, i'm glad you're okay. rachel: me too. >> great to see you all. steve: all right meanwhile, straight ahead

ahead of that front that's where we're seeing showers and thunderstorms , so 73 right here in new york but look at minneapolis. look at rapid city, temperatures in the 40s look at mazoula, 38 there so

prediction, remember? right now is where we normally roll in the clip but he said over and over again, he looked at those big crowds and he says essentially, in his full delivery, well let's listen. >> what was your sort of immediate thought when you saw all of those fans packed into stadiums in texas, wisconsin, and elsewhere, as soon as i saw it, i thought covid is about to have a feast. what did you think? >> i thought the same thing. i think it's really unfortunate. i would hope that most of the people in that stadium were vaccinated and even if they were , the close kong regathering setting should have been wearing masks. brian: outdoors, two weeks later, covid-19 data is in. some of the biggest games were held, and guess what happened? nothing. the stands were packed, there weren't super spreaders in fact the rates went down in those surrounding communities, like in texas, despite the university of texas and texas a &m both hosting games september 4, that drew nearly 190,000 fans between them the statewide seven day average, currently is lower than it was on game day. here to react outkick founder clay travis. clay? your reaction to what the prediction was for dr. fauci as opposed to the reality we're living in. >> look, all over the south, first of all thanks for having me, brian, millions of people have gone to college football games and the number of covid infections has been plummeting. you just referenced texas, same thing has happened in florida, in georgia, in alabama, in mississippi, all of these states that have had massive crowds for their college football games , all over the south, we are seeing cases come down, meaning, when dr. fauci said he was worried about super spreader events over these major college football crowds, just flat out hasn't materialized. in fact, brian, the opposite has happened. the number of people that are testing positive for covid, all over the south, is plummeting to a massive degree. brian: clay, think about this. you now have a situation where china oppresses, they will even let you die and whither away in an apartment if you're positive and it still came back. then you have permissive areas and it still comes back and it goes away. might the virus have a say in how it spreads? >> that's the big story from the whole start of this , brian. i'm not sure that anything we've done and i look forward to years from now, when all of the emotion is stripped away and we could actually look at all of the virology and all of the epidemiology and the data. i'm not sure there's going to be anything that we did at all, shutting down schools, sending people home, requiring masks, all of it. i think it was mostly cosmetic theatre, brian. i think the data is going to reflect that the virus was going toughier people felt like they needed to do something even though most of the things that we did had almost zero impact, and some of the things, i mean look at schools. the data on schools when kids go back-to-school shows there aren't these super spreader events when kids go back-to-school. the data is clear that's why many european countries don't require kids to wear masks by the way, because they also don't work, but i look forward, i think we're going to see , i really do, 30 years from now people will look back and say this was the vietnam war on steroids in this country. brian: 75% of the eligible vaccination population has gotten at least one shot, plus the natural immunity, we're doing a lot better than anyone thinks meanwhile what's clicking in outkick? >> we're getting ready for our bus tour, brian. we'll be in nashville this weekend for georgia vanderbilt and then going down to tuscaloosa and then we'll be in college station, texas for alabama/texas a &m, fantastic crowds coming out to see us look forward to seeing people this weekend and can't wait to be back on the road at some of the big college football stadiums where people are going out and living their lives, without fear, and it's great to see people back to normal. brian: clay travis is working seven days a week for the last two years you have a lot of vacation days built up when you get to your 70s you can actually go fishing clay, thanks so much. >> no kidding. brian: meanwhile, coming up, straight ahead. i'm going to toss to steve. steve: that's a good idea. thanks brian. a group of brothers banding together in search of their families legends of gold that could be hidden in the wild mountain valley of bear gulch, montana. >> in bear gulch, montana on the 9,000 foot high slopes of the tobacco root mountains there's a network of long, abandoned mines where no one has found gold in decades, but veteran miners, the dale brother s, just bought them all. >> we walked over all these claims since we were little kids but we didn't own them and now we own them. steve: how great is that? well the dale brothers are joining fox business' primetime lineup in a brand new original series called "american gold, the legend of bear gulch" as they mine over 800-acres of family of land for family legend s that could be worth millions, or billions, or trillions, they hope. rick, john, tad, and paul dale join us right now from out, way out west. guys, good morning to you. >> good morning. steve: rick, what is the legend of bear gulch? >> the benjamin netanyahu end of bear gulch is a story given to my grandfather and my father about a very rich mean of gold that was discovered by a prospector and covered backup as he mined further in the mountain, and he planned to come back and mine it himself, but he got old and died, so before he ever got a hold of the property, so that's the legend. steve: okay that's the legend and john, that's why you guys have banded together, and part of was it a childhood dream that you spent 45 years trying to figure out how to buy that land? tell us about that. >> well i can't say it was a childhood dream but certainly an adult dream as we got older, and the opportunities became available to purchase mining claims and bear gulch. bear gulch is our home and it has been since our grandfather and grandmother were there, so that was as time went by, we purchased those claims, and it became important to us. steve: okay, so tad, you've purchased the claims, you've got the land, you've got the 800- acres. now, how are you going about finding this mother load? >> well we're going to follow the legend and go in a particular mine tunnel that was where the discovery was made, and that was probably oh, 100 years ago, and we're trying to open up the portal. we have to get in there. it's not too far from the surface and we figured if the vein of gold was as rich as the legend says, then that would give us some seed money to proceed farther into the mountain where the feeder systems that makeup the gold vein structure be found. so we're in some new ground. it hasn't been mined in some of the areas that we're at, so we're very optimistic and we trust our dad and our granddad. they were very pragmatic people. they didn't believe pipe dreams so this was a very believable story from a very good prospect or . steve: yeah, no kidding and it's the legend from your family, and paul, as we look at montana, as the sun is coming up, it's so beautiful out there. why was it so important for you brothers to ban together to do this? >> well it's an expensive proposition, and we were all retired here, and have known the property so it made sense and we all have backgrounds in mining and banging around the hills and these old mines so it just made sense for us to go at it together, as brothers, and its worked out pretty well that way. we've pooled our resources and pooled our labor resources together, to try to pull this thing off, so that's what we're shooting for. steve: i understand. rick, because it's you and your brothers, whose in charge? >> well that changes on any given day. >> [laughter] steve: it's a good question. you're all in charge. >> yeah, we're all in charge too much, probably. steve: john, i hope in the last episode of the series i hope you strike it rich. can you give us an idea of what happened? >> i don't know if i should or not. we may or may not have found some gold, but there's a good prospect. there's a good chance of finding some gold. steve: that is a good tease, so the people are going to watch. rick and john and tad and paul, the dale brothers thank you very much for joining us live from montana. be sure to tune into fox business' new primetime lineup. you can catch "american gold" tonight and every wednesday at 8:00 p.m. eastern. let's hope they strike it rich. rachel: it looks fun. brian: i'm excited about the fox business lineup. it's fantastic. meanwhile, we have 12 seconds how do you want to fill it? steve: we should thank you for stopping by. rachel: thank you for having me. steve: aniston little will be back tomorrow. brian: we're out of time.
