Of cash to the biden family and Business Associates from Foreign Countries across the globe, including some of our nations biggest adversaries. Trace, thanks for jumping in today. Trace john has the day off. Im trace gallagher. Box obtaining the 19page memo revealing how hunter biden and his associates received millions from russian, ukraine, kazakhstan. Sandra more than 20 million in total foreign funds to the bidens and their associates. Oversight Committee MemberByron Donalds and Marc Thiessen will weigh in on all of that. But first, our senior Congressional Correspondent chad Pergram Keeping Track of all of this live on capitol hill. Kick things off for us here. Good afternoon, the third dump of bank records, they say it reveal 20 million went from foreign sources to the bidens and biden Business Associates. Democrats say this is some illusion of access, that looks like real access to me, when you have 30 some times Hunter BidensBusiness Partner showing up at bidens house or meetings with the Vice President while hes Vice President , that looks pretty much more than an illusion, that looks real. Of interest to the committee, 3. 5 million from the widow of the mayor of moscow. President biden met with her a few weeks later and despite being one of the richest women in russia, she escaped sanctions. Where republicans believe people were paying for access, especially if hunter biden served as a conduit to his father. But theres no direct evidence of that. Ive been asked this question a million times, the answer is not going to change. The answer remains the same. The president was never in business with his son. I dont have anything else to add. The top democrat on the Oversight Committee, jamie raskin, said the bank records do not involve the president , and an effort to justify baseless calls for impeachment inquiry. Some republicans are ready for impeachment now. I think what you are going to see is that once that tree of the biden family is put together, and certainly hunter is the mover and shaker that coordinated a lot of this stuff, its obvious based on the emails that we have already seen, everyone knows what was going on, its just a matter of proving it now. One of the bank records revealed how 142,000 went from an oligarch in kazakhstan and then to hunter biden, purportedly to buy a sports car. Sandra. Sandra chad pergram on the latest developments from there. Thank you very much, chad. Trace. Trace migrant encounters at the southern border on the rise again. Texas dps says they blocked a bridge near brownsville, texas disrupting traffic, as the Biden Administration appears to be making moves to respond to the growing surge. Florida Congressman Mike Waltz will join us, but first live to bill melugin in eagle pass, texas. Do we know, have any idea how many migrants are being apprehended each day . Good afternoon to you. We do. Multiple sources telling me yesterday alone, Border Patrol apprehended just over 6,000 migrants after they crossed illegally. Keep in mind, that does not include the ports of entry. The numbers are surging now and the Border Patrol union is responding to the surge. Posted a tweet, says in part, as we predicted, numbers have skyrocketed. We are at 6,000 arrests and 1,000 known escapes daily. Where is bidens Mainstream Media . Breathless coverage of the temporary drop from historic highs that went on for two plus years and now have disappeared. A master class on how propagandaism works. And out of brownsville, texas yesterday morning, a mass of several hundred migrants apparently tried to rush one of the ports of entry, Gateway International bridge just after midnight. After social media rumors spread among the migrants that the border was potentially going to be open to asylum seekers. So you can see cbp had to deploy razor wire and personnel to close it off and block the migrants and nobody made it through, everybody was repelled. But we see that basically every month at this point now. Then well take you out to la joya, a group of about 200 migrants crossed illegally, most of them family units with small little children. Seeing the return of the large family groups as the illegal crossings rise. Migrants not apparently afraid of the consequences the Biden Administration is promising if they cross illegally. They know they will likely be released into the country if they just get here, they are not afraid of the consequences. Take a look at this video in hidalgo, more family units, more little children. This group also turning themselves in to Border Patrol as the Rio Grande Valley sector is seeing a surge. More than 4,600 illegal crossings this last weekend alone. Lastly, bring it out here where we are in Maverick County near eagle pass, this photo, Texas Rangers arresting this Honduran National after they found him hiding on a train. Hes a confirmed ms13 gang member, and convicted of sexually violent crimes, and the guy had been arrested after crossing illegally four times before this and that is why dps puts such an emphasis on working the trains out here. They say you never know who you are going to catch, they try to hide on them to get deeper into the United States. An ms13 gang member, trace. Back to you. Trace and they keep trying to get across and eventually they do. Bill, thank you. Sandra. Sandra texas Congressman Chip Roy is encouraging his fellow House Republicans to withhold dhs funds until a list of demands are met to secure the border. Fox has obtained a letter he sent to his colleagues demanding President Biden sign the border bill into law, reimburse texas for billions spent protecting the border and fire dhs secretary alejandro mayorkas. Florida Congressman Mike Waltz, thanks for joining us. Obviously this is a prominent Hard Line Conservative making these demands. He lays them out very clearly, sign gop border bill into law, reimburse 10 billion, fire mayorkas. Do you agree with the approach . I think senator roy is spot on and appreciate his leadership here. Enough is enough. We have to use whatever leverage we have in the house to force this administration to stop the flow of massive amount of migrants, the flow of fentanyl and the fact the cartels now control 30 of mexico and our border. Sandra, if change the name of the cartels to say isis or alqaeda that are poisoning hundreds of thousands of americans and we would be talking about this very differently. So we have to use the power of the purse. I certainly support doing so and the thing that could be done tomorrow or as soon as the senate gets back in is the senate should take up hr2, the house pass the secure the border act, if they dont like portions of it, fine. Come to the table, lets have that discussion but just sticking your head in the sand and doing nothing is just, its not an option, its unacceptable. Sandra andy biggs talking about what hes hearing when he goes back home. Listen. I talk to literally over 1,000 people in my district and around the state last week and that was the number one question. I dont know that we have the votes just yet. I keep trying to sell my colleagues that we are passed time for impeachment inquiry. Sandra the president was there in arizona yesterday, not even a mention in that speech, he was there to tout his economic policies, congressman. But politico is writing about this impeachment effort actually losing steam in the house gop. So, what exactly is happening here and it doesnt seem like mccarthy is sold on moving this direction. Well, look, i think, you know, you have to lay out what is at stake here in terms of high crime and a misdemeanor. But i certainly fully support it. I think we will have the votes but we have to lay out we have to lay out the case and i know representative green, the chairman of the dhs committee, representative roy and others are on that. I can tell you thats what im hearing in my district. Again, enough is enough. I just got asked by a veteran, sandra, how do we have 30,000 Homeless Veterans in america yet you see new york and other Sanctuary Cities pumping out hundreds of millions with free hotel rooms, using city parks and all kinds of shelters, and the other thing the administration could do is use military resources. Satellites, cyber, drones, other things, to put these cartels on their back foot. We cant have those International Criminal gangs, paramilitary units controlling our border. Sandra and remember Kamala Harris the Vice President was appointed the border czar. We are talking years ago. And many are asking where she is on this issue. We are certainly not hearing from her on it. Shes awol, yeah, awol, sandra. Absent on duty. Sandra many would use those words to describe it. Meanwhile, before you go, congressman, ask you about this brandnew report on the Biden Administration and that it has given 2. 4 billion to the taliban since the chaotic withdrawal. This is a damning new report. Its just out. Its revealing huge wastes in taxpayers funds over the 20 years in afghanistan. This is a new report from the special Inspector General for afghanistan reconstruction, sigar, released to the public yesterday. When you look through this report, it also names another 1. 7 billion remained available for possible disbursement at the time of the report, july 30th. What is going on here, congressman . Yeah, first of all, State Department and usaid are not cooperating with the special Inspector General. Hes getting this from other sources. This was a very credible think tank report and here is the impossible Situation Biden has us in. Either you let 20 million afghans starve to death or you flow this money through the hands of the taliban that they then use to pick winners and losers and to control what is now a terrorist state. And the thing that has me so upset is you still have veterans groups exhausting their personal savings, some even their kids College Plans to help our allies, 80,000 of which are still stuck there under the talibans gun, yet you have billions going right into the hands of the taliban still working with alqaeda. Isis is on the march. Its just its maddening and if we didnt have this report i would not believe it. Ill tell you this, we are going to defund it in the house. We are going to pull those funds back, and stop wasting this money and stop funding terrorists. Sandra finish with this, in april the head of that group that released this report, john, told a House Foreign AffairsCommittee Says he cannot assure the committee or the american taxpayer we are not currently funding the taliban. Think about that. Congressman, appreciate you joining us today on this very serious topic. Billions of your money going into the hands of terrorists. Its just unconscionable. Thank you. Sandra thank you, trace. Trace Vivek Ramaswamy will be on the stage for the first republican debate. Ramaswamy cleared the final hurdle to qualify by signing a Loyalty Pledge yesterday. The Republican National committee made the pledge a necessity, and meet a polling and donation requirement. So far seven candidates along with Ramaswamy Have reached those standards and its fascinating, we have seven in there. The question s you see the check mark on the far right, we are not sure if they can convince the former president to join in those debates. But the big news, of course, is the second debate, right. Sandra and of course youve got to make the pledge as well, and i had mayor suarez on the program last evening who has passed the Fundraising Threshold but not the polling. Still a lot of Question Marks over who exactly will be on the stage. That mexico it even more exciting as we build up to that day, august 23, 9 00 p. M. , Monthed Rated by martha and bret. Cant wait. Trace yeah, and the Fox Business Network chosen to host the second debate on September 27th at the Ronald Reagan president ial foundation and institute in simi valley, near the Ronald Reagan president ial library. That is going to be huge as well. Sandra full on 2024. Big developments in the indictment against former president trump. Prosecutors trying to ban him talking about certain parts of his election interference case. Does that violate his right to free speech. Well ask kim strassel. Shell join us on that. Plus this.

Sandra Breaking News for you at this hour, we are now learning special counsel jack smith obtaining a Search Warrant for records related to former president trumps twitter account. David spunt live in washington on what we are learning here. David. Sandra, this is just breaking, its from a federal Appeals Court ruling and we have learned based on this ruling that special counsel jack smith actually went to twitter and served a warrant to look at the former president s twitter account in january of 2023, 2 months after newly twitter owner elon musk reinstated that account, and we are going through this right now, its several dozen pages. It ruled that revealed that twitter was sanctioned 350,000 for not complying with the court order to turn over some of that information. Jack smiths office believed there were some criminal offenses, evidence of criminal offenses so twitter was fined 350,000, this coming from the Circuit Court of appeals here in washington, d. C. Sandra, also following a potential protective order, a proposal that may be announced on friday. The next date for trumps court team is going to be on friday, two days in washington, d. C. Donald trump says he will not abide by any sort of protective order. Watch. When we say i cant talk i would i will talk about it, i will. They are not taking away my First Amendment right. A judge set a court hearing, smith wants a protective order and would ban donald trump from talking about certain aspects of the case like witnesses and other types of evidence. This is after he went on social media and typed out if you go after me, im coming after you. That was last friday. Now, special counsel jack smiths team took this as a threat potentially to witnesses and asked for that protective order that would prevent him from doing so in the future. It is a virtual certainty that judge chutkan will impose a protective order in this case. Im not as confident that she is going to endorse the fairly robust protective order that the special counsel was recommending. My guess is that she may be inclined to split the difference and place limitations on certain types of evidence or certain categories of evidence that cant be disclosed. And sandra, trumps team said its about free speech but Special Counsel Smith in the indictment says its not about free speech. Writing the defendant, meaning donald trump, had a right like every american to speak publicly about the election and even claim falsely will had been outcome fraud during the election and that he had won. What is illegal is the attempt to try to switch votes from joe biden to himself, he did so by ordering fake electors and fake certificates. The government could go a step further if trump ignores the protective order and asks for a gag order, meaning no talk about the case, but given the fact we are in the heightened election season unlikely to do that to the republican frontrunner. Sandra a lot to take in there. David spunt out of washington for us, thank you so much. Trace. Trace kim strassel, opinion columnist, you heard david spunt there, basically the prosecutors want to limit what the former president can say about discovery handed over to the defense. Trump is saying listen, we are going to talk about this and there is the possibility now of a gag order during a campaign. Your thoughts. Yeah, i mean this is a tricky situation. Prosecutors often ask for protective orders but designed to protect Classified Information or sensitive grand jury information. Jack smith seems to be going for something much broader. Wants to try to gag the president in many different areas because of potential threats to witnesses. But i think that is a real problem, not only is it unusual but remember, this is a guy who is right now the leading contender for the republican nomination and a central part of his campaign is his argument that hes under political pers Biden Justice department. To have a judge come out and say he can no longer talk about that in many different forms i think that thats a little dicey. I think its a call that now that we are beginning to see some of those fights going on in the courtroom, some of this is going to get appealed up, i think, to Circuit Court, maybe even the Supreme Court. Trace they want to politicize the case and take him off the Campaign Trail to appear in court and then limit what he says when hes on the Campaign Trail. Right. We have not had this situation before and this is on jack smith by deciding hes going to wade into this and bring this case in the middle of an election, and so once again, not only do we have the unprecedented nature of these indictments against a former president but all these unprecedented questions about the limits of what a court can impose and peoples Free Speech Rights versus the prosecutors demands. Trace i want to get your take on this, Breaking News coming in, the House Judiciary claims they have documents showing the portland and l. A. Field offices of the fbi were contributing to this assessment that catholics, talking about traditional catholics were potentially domestic terrorists, going on to say, quoting here, this suggests the fbis use of the Law Enforcement capabilities to Intrude On AmericansFirst Amendment rights is more widespread than suspected and reveals inconsistencies with your previous testimony before the committee. This is the Judiciary Committee kind of releasing this thing. It really is. This is this is striking to think that you had Field Offices in portland and los angeles literally kind of getting together to work out this idea that these were domestic terrorists, catholics. Yeah, we at the Editorial Board have seen it, and Christopher Wray came in front of the house Judiciary Committee and tried to mark this off, he said it was the product of a single field office, a single product from a single field office, nothing more, and try to push it under the rug. Now finally provided with the less redacted version of that memo and turns out it was not just Richmond Field Office working on this. They claim the document was put together based on a richmond contact, also a portland fbi contact, and under cover agent watching somebody in california. Says the memo was put together with the coordination of the portland fbi, which suggests that this view that somehow if you are a traditionallist catholic, that you are fanatical. A view that is more widespread than a couple of guys down in virginia. Yeah, very good assessment. Kimberly from the wall street journal, thank you so much. Thank you. Sandra new bank records appear to show millions of dollars sent from those foreign oligarchs to the biden family and their Business Associates all while joe biden was Vice President.

Sandra back to the top story at this hour, a brandnew batch of bank records appears to reveal millions in foreign payments sent to the biden family and their Business Associates, including from one of russias wealthiest oligarchs. House Oversight Committee questioning why that official has so far avoided sanctions by the treasury department. And claiming shes being treated differently. Lets bring in Florida Republican congressman Byron Donalds. A member of the house Oversight Committee. Appreciate your time today. Big revelations. People are trying to determine what they should be making of this. What do you tell them . I tell them its very, very simple. All payback for the millions and millions, 20 million and still investigating, this is payback for the millions of dollars the biden family received because of their access to the brand, to the Big Guy Being joe biden. Hunter biden has no business folks, joe biden has no business. There were no services being delivered except for access. And thats what she basically has now, she escaped the sanctions regime. Sandra we can pop her picture up to see firsthand. I didnt mean to interrupt you, this is elena, russias most wealthy woman, 3 million, a payment just weeks before then Vice President joe biden dined with her at a cafe in washington. So, what more are we learning about that and about her and that payment . What we are seeing is that payment was splitting 750 went to devon archer, the rest followed hunter biden, and then through the Account Scheme that the Biden Family Set up when joe biden was Vice President , the money is filtered through different accounts, different members of the family are getting checks, etc. And so thats is what you see consistently as you go through this. We are in the process of continuing our work of now going through subpoenas for some of these financial documents so we can track the money down. The white house says joe biden never got a dime, i dont believe it. And at the end of the day, if hunter biden was Spending Money for his dad on behalf of his dad he does not have to take a dime. Thats facilitating a bribe through the president of the United States through his son. Sandra i want to finish with this, not the first time the republicans have been pressing the treasury department, janet yellen for information related to this matter and why someone like that is evading these sanctions. This is a letter dated back April Of 2022 from House Republicans. They sent it to yellen, if the United States is avoiding sanctioning certain russian oligarchs because of concerns they may try to influence american policy by exploiting Hunter Bidens connection with his father, the president of the United States, the American People deserve to know it this. Is serious stuff, congressman. It is very serious and typical of janet yellen and people in the Biden Administration when you have these questions, they have no response or they slow walk a response and it is outrageous. If the president of the United States is compromised, the American People need to know about it. Sandra all right. I want to ask you also about this new biden interview where hes talking about stopping drilling. Remind everybody where gas prices are today, the National Average 3. 82, up like 0. 30 just in the past month alone. From a year ago, they are down a bit but still up substantially since this president took office. Yet hes saying this in a new interview, listen. I want to stop all drilling on the east coast and the west coast and in the gulf. Sandra doesnt this just increase our reliance on foreign oil, on energy coming from our adversaries, when you see this push for green energy is quite clearly as we have seen evidenced in recent weeks and months just premature . 100 , and this does not make any sense. People need to understand. Even on the Television Sets that they are watching your program on, you need fossil fuels to be refined to make the component pieces to do any of this stuff. His Energy Policy is absurd. Add to the fact that his Department Of Interior just made a National Monument of a million acres of land where we would mine uranium. Folks, the third biggest source for the Nuclear Reactors comes from russia. Joe biden took an allotment off the table for so, so we could be more reliant on Foreign Countries. I get it, his son getting money from the countries overseas so i can see why hunter would love the stuff but its terrible for our country and does not work, its not going to help americans have cheap and readily available energy. And that is the number one thing we need if we are going to break this crazy inflation brought to us by joe biden. Sandra and if they are making the case how global this Climate Change is, not in my back yard approach, it just doesnt work. To stop producing the energy that we need and that we are currently consuming here only for them to buy it from our adversaries does not make a lot of sense to people watching this play out.

The state issues an emergency proclamation. William is live on set with more. This is likely to be the worst Natural Disaster in hawaii since the hurricane 30 years ago and the kilauea disruption that destroyed 700 homes in 2018. You have three large fires on maui. The one most concerned about is near lahaina, historic whaling town, filled with shops and galleries and restaurants, and the Oldest Banion Tree in hawaii and reports say it was completely destroyed. And you have hundreds of ports in harbor, charters and pleasure boats, worth tens of millions of dollars and most of those burned in place, whether they were on a slip or a mooring. So, look at this video, taken overnight. That orange glow down there, that is lahaina town. No reports of fatalities but the Maui Hospital is filled with victims with burns and smoke inhalation, power lines, cell service, 911 are down on the west part of the island. Three victims have been airlifted down to honolulu. Those most populated areas, lahaina, the roads are shut down. Kehei is open. The National Guard has been called up. Two shelters had to be evacuated. One has 1200 victims there inside. The fire was pushed by 60 mile an hour winds from hurricane dora, and we are told the winds were so unexpected that people had to jump into lahaina harbor to save themselves. Coast guard alone reports saving a dozen people from the water.

I didnt exist, nothing existed. But this one consciousness, and thats the consciousness that i call god. Trace there you have an oakland pastor speaking out about his spiritual experience using hallucinagenic mushrooms in his church. In San Francisco, they claim the use is religious. Jonathan, great to see you as always. Fox news contributor and theologian. Irony across the San Francisco bay area, whether its oakland or San Francisco, you have all the open air drug markets and people using hard drugs with 0 consequences and now the city is like well, im not sure if we allow these churches to use magic mushrooms. What do you think about this . So many really interesting angles here. Number one, these two churches up and running right now, they are selling these drugs, ok. So right there we say this is not a house of worship, it is actually Money Changers, and what did jesus do in the gospel to the Money Changers when they were selling in the temple, he knocked them right out of there, and i think thats what the church in general should be doing saying this is not worship of god. Thats the one angle. Secondly, San Francisco has to wisen up to this and say no, that has nothing to do with a house of worship. Nothing to do with what the Constitution Marks Out should be given protection as our first and most fundamental right. Trace the argument might be, jonathan, that San Francisco needs to wisen up to all of these drugs being used and propagated across the city and the bay area, not just the churches. Of course the churches are hiding behind religion to sell these drugs but its citywide that maybe theres a reason they are using religion and maybe getting away with it. Exactly. Eventually, this will probably end up in the Supreme Court or some minor court and they are going to say no, lets not abuse the constitution and the Freedom Of Religion. And San Francisco has to say we are going to decide. Are we going to let drugs run the city or are we going to run the city. And i hope they do wisen up and the big picture. Great point. Trace one more sound bite. This guy is fun, i want to watch more. The Freedom Of Religion is something core to what the u. S. Is. So if i found a church that meth is the sacrament, you think thats going to fly . Well, it all depends on if you are ready to go to Federal Court and protect what you do. And we are. Trace seems like they are going to fight this thing, right. They might win. Yeah, you know what, listen. I dont want to judge this guys honest pursuit of light and spirituality, maybe hes doing that, stop selling the stuff would be a great start and also probably a better way to win your case. Dont sell drugs in your church. And he hope he continues to pursue the light that he says is god because god is very happy to shine it on him, im sure of that.

Sandra some republican activists initiating lawsuits over diversity, equity and inclusion policies they say are not being followed by u. S. Major corporations. Madison alworth is with us now.

These companies, they are being very public and saying that they are committed to diversity initiatives. Behind the scenes they are in talks with their lawyers around whether or not they should adjust their practices. Even before they officially announce a change in hiring or promotion practices, if you just look in the companies we are already seeing a change.
