bad memory. will testify publicly first time now and double down on that assessment. we have some clips of that, advance preview. we have a little idea what he will say. i'm bill hemmer live in new york city. back with my partner here. >> dana: great to have you back. >> bill: it is very, very good to be back. we went to the top of the world with the u.s. navy and we'll air our story later this week. it was something else. every moment of every day was something that we've never done before in our life. >> dana: amazing. i'm dana perino. this is "america's newsroom." breaking moments ago fox news obtained the transcript of hur's interview with the president. he led the interview of the handling of classified documents and willfully retained them in his garage and office but cited the president's mental state. >> bill: he explains his decision in a 400 page report. he would present himself to an elderly man with a poor memory. that about a month ago didn't sit well with the president. >> president biden: i'm well-meaning and elderly man and know what the hell i'm doing. i'm president and put the country back on his feet. i don't need his recommendation. >> can you continue as president? >> my memory is so bad i let you speak. >> dana: the transcript of the interview backing you have the special counsel's assessment and contradict the president's version of event at times. let's go to david spunt on capitol hill for an update. hi, david. >> hi. big day on capitol hill. robert hur will open up his statement to members of congress here and defend himself and defend his work. he has a 345 page report that has come under heavy scrutiny. the ultimate decision is he declined to charge president bidden. he will testify for everyone to see. while he declined to charge president biden criminally he was critical of the way he stored classified documents in his garage. the hur report showed pictures of classified documents kept in torn and tattered boxes in his delaware garage. sensitive documents relating to afghanistan and his time as vice president part of the overall pile. ultimately, though, hur decided biden would be sympathetic to a jury because of his age and demeanor and part of the report more controversial he he wrote he did not remember even within several years when his son, beau, died and hazy with the afghanistan debate. he will tell the committee my assessment of the report about the relevance of the president's memory was necessary and accurate and fair. most importantly, what i wrote is what i believe the evidence shows. what i expect jurors would perceive and believe. i did not sanitize my explanation nor did i disparage the president unfairly. a source close to the personal counsel said it was not hur that brought up beau biden's death but the president himself. what happened during the interview is in that transcript. we have that transcript released. we're continuing to go through it. robert hur expected to be on capitol hill for several hours today and we'll see all of it unfold in public. dana and bill. >> dana: less than an hour away. thank you. >> bill: as david described the transcript is now in our hands and going through it. it is long. be patient with us. interesting detail. trey gowdy is with us now. good morning. you served on this committee. what are you listening for today? >> a couple of things. i'm hearing two different descriptions. i'm hearing there was an insufficiency of evidence and then i'm hearing rob hur said he would present himself sympatheticly to a jury. two separate things. i want to know was there an evidentiary basis to prosecute the president? at one point you say there is insufficient evidence. and then the next paragraph you say but a jury would find him sympathetic. those are two entirely different things. what i also look for is the republican ability to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. right now the public thinks that rob hur was right. old man who can't remember anything. every one of these democrats bill and dana will say you say this case is different from donald trump's, tell us how. this will turn into a mini trial about donald trump and not joe biden. >> dana: here is how ohio congressman jim jordan, the chairman of the committee, talked about it on "fox & friends." >> i think special counsel hur had one fundamental question to address. did joe biden keep and share classified information? the answer to that question is a resounding yes. as you pointed out that because the president would be sympathetic -- hur's words, sympathetic to a jury with an elderly old man who can't remember things he decided not to bring charges. >> dana: what do you think of the democrats who will today no doubt say what they said when the report first came out. it is not incumbent upon hur to describe the president's mental state at all. decided not to press charges and that should have been the end of it. >> it depends on which of those two options hur takes. if he says look, there was an element of the offense missing. he is incapable of forming criminal intent. look, i had lots of defendants that were just not competent to stand trial. a bad memory might be one of the reasons. but if he says no, i didn't mean he was incompetent to stand trial. i meant i thought he would present himself sympatheticly to a jury. i hate to sound like we're all-in-law school together but those are two entirely different things and if the president is legally incompetent to stand trial, that's a big deal. because you shouldn't have the nuclear codes and you shouldn't be doing anything else. if on the other hand all you are reminding us of is that he is old, we already know that. so any time you call a witness, you have to balance what am i going to get from this witness versus what are the dangers? i think what republicans are going to get is what they have, which is pretty good language out of hur's report. >> bill: in that hur report, this is just one or two lines, okay? he writes there is evidence that when mr. biden left office in 2017 he willfully retained his classified notebooks. he knew he kept classified information in notebooks stored in his house and knew he was not allowed to do so. how does hur defend that today? >> you put your finger on it, bill. what he just described is each element of the offense. so then he pivots and says but -- but d.o.j. guidelines say you must weigh and balance mitigating factors. when i do that, i conclude that he is a sympathetic defendant that a jury probably would not convict. that's very, very different from saying it is someone for whom evidence does not exist. those are two entirely separate lines of inquiry. rob hur better separate those two out or he will have a long morning and afternoon. >> dana: thank you so much. appreciate it. >> bill: talk to you later. thank you. >> dana: elections are taking place in four states today. suspense is long gone. now president biden and donald trump could make it official and clinch enough delegates to secure their party's nominations tonight. set up the first rematch in a presidential election since 1956. bill melugin live in west palm beach, florida. bill. good morning. >> good morning to you. that's right. both former president trump and president biden are looking to make things official tonight. neither of them have enough delegates yet to officially lock up their party's respective nominations. that could change by late tonight. take a look where we stand right now starting with president biden. as i speak to you he has got 1,872 delegates and needs 1,968 to lock things up on the democratic side. for republicans, trump has 1,078 he needs 1,215. the question is where can they pick up the delegates today? look at the map. both parties are holding primaries in mississippi, georgia, and washington state. hawaii is holding a republican presidential caucus as well. 235 delegates up for grabs on the democrat side and 161 up for the republicans. now, for democrats, biden is expected to reach the threshold if he gets all of georgia's delegates tonight. some democrats in washington are urging voters to cast ballots for uncommitted delegates in protest of biden's handling of the israel war. that movement has seen significant traction in michigan and minnesota. now, on the republican side, former president trump could also cross the 1,215 number late tonight after washington's ballots are counted. trump's new team at the rnc isn't wasting time not waiting for the count to make big time changes at the rnc. late monday around 60rnc staffers were slashed after new leadership came in including trump's daughter-in-law, lara trump elected co-chair with michael whatley. we saw president biden on the campaign trail in georgia and campaigning yesterday in new hampshire. donald trump was also on the campaign trail in georgia over the weekend. he didn't have any campaign events yesterday. as of right now he has no events today or tonight. we'll see if it changes. send it back to you. >> dana: you know it could. thanks. >> bill: could be the big night. going to go late. how we see it as bill was talking there. trump needs 1,215 as bill mentioned to get that nomination. at the moment today he is at 1078, which if you do the math, is a difference of 137 delegates. he could do that today. it could be late into night but do it today and i'll show you why on the map behind me and what president biden is doing as well. what he has done so far this week. you will hear a ton about six or seven states between now and november. a boat load, okay? this is biden's week so far in the swing state on friday in p.a., saturday georgia, yesterday new hampshire, tomorrow is wisconsin. thursday to michigan. two of these wild card states not on that map, all right? he will get there and so will donald trump. that is over here in the american west and southwest. nevada and arizona. so this is where we believe this election will be decided in these seven states. is it 100,000 votes or 500,000 votes who separate them? who knows? that's the game we're watching between now and november. power rankings on the electoral map we revealed this two weeks ago. 270 to win. 46 still up in the air. we have biden today at 241 and trump at 251. at the moment on the electoral map he leads currently. those six or seven states are battlegrounds with a capital b going into 2024. >> dana: you might add another one, i think. i think minnesota is going to be a possibility. trump will try to go for it. especially after biden got that 20% vote uncommitted in the primary. it doesn't mean biden can't win it. if trump wants to make it a 50 state race minnesota would be a place i would go. we'll see, who knows? >> president biden: innocent young woman who was killed by an illegal. well -- technically not supposed to be here. undocumented person. i shouldn't have used illegal. it is undocumented. >> dana: taking out the eraser. white house playing cleanup for president biden over his use of the word illegal and backtrack followed as the laken riley act is stuck in limbo in the senate. >> bill: the president punting on executive action on the border. we talked about this for a couple of weeks. handing the disaster over to members of congress. >> dana: you have to wonder why they leaked so much of it. we have heard his report and waiting to hear former special counsel robert hur live about his finding on president biden's mishandling of classified documents and his mental state. and bowel incontinence. but that changed when my urologist told me about axonics therapy. a long-lasting solution that has really changed my life. this is not another drug, and it works. visit findrealrelief.com to arrange an appointment with an expert physician to determine if axonics therapy is right for you. results and experiences may vary. stop suffering in silence. this is your invitation... ...to experience the elevation of electrification. ...and some of the best offers of the year on select models... ...at the invitation to lexus sales event. frustrated by skin tags?

it's comeback season. >> when is the border executive action coming? any executive action on the border >> it happened by itself. passing it. >> it comes with an agreement. >> they haven't yet. they haven't yet. i'm helping them. >> dana: president biden despite reports he was considering executive action on the border does not appear to be interested anymore. what happened? we don't know. biden telling reporters yesterday that the fix to this crisis must come from congress. i know what happened? it must have been a focus group. separately in his 2025 budget propose all asking for more emergency funding for border security. >> i want to be clear about something. the president absolutely did not apologize. no apology anywhere in that conversation. he did not apologize. he used a different word. i think it is unconscionable that there are some people who are playing politics with this young woman's tragic murder and particularly at a time when let's not forget, house republicans are standing in the way of a bipartisan border security agreement. >> bill: the white house out with another clarification. this after president biden back tracked on calling that georgia murder suspect quote an illegal. despite that fact the man accused of brutally murdering laken riley is a venezuelan national who crossed into the u.s. illegally. >> dana: it's unclear if the senate will take up the laken riley act. mandates that migrants accused of theft or burglary be taken into federal custody. >> good morning, dana. don't expect the senate to move as fast as the house approving the laken riley act, if at all. senate democrats are resisting pressure from the house but people are still pushing for the vote. >> we should take it up. i think this has caught the imagination of the nation. this young lady laken riley brutally murdered by an illegal immigrant from venezuela, i think that we need to again set a stake and say we won't tolerate this at all. >> a vote on the bill in the senate could either help or hurt vulnerable democrats on the ballot this fall. a gallup poll shows that more than half of all americans see border security as a critical threat facing the nation. democrat henry cuellar represents a border district. >> we certainly want to see the senate border deal passed. republicans have been calling for securing the border, securing the border. finally there is a strong border deal done and they don't want to bring it up for a vote itself. >> democrats are forming a task force on border security. tom sassy ran on border security in his special election last month. >> i'll support any bipartisan compromise that will actually get this issue addressed. the republicans refuse to actually move forward because president trump has told them we don't want to give biden a victory. >> expect questions today for senate majority leader chuck schumer about the laken riley act. the suspect in laken riley's murder was cited for shoplifting and child endangerment. >> bill: a stunning story. f.b.i. director wray issuing an urgent warning about the threats on the border. drug trafficking, gang violence and human smugglers with ties to isis. garrett has more on the story. good morning. >> good morning to you, bill. director wray also said the bigger concern for national security is what we don't know about those who are coming across the border. the bad actors with fake i.d.s and documents. especially the gotaways who avoid law enforcement all together. we have already had more than 1.8 million known gotaways since the start of the 2021 fiscal year. 1.8 million people who are sneaking into the country because they would either be rejected or arrested if they were caught. those are just the ones we know about. this past weekend alone there were nearly 2,000 known gotaways along the southern border. here is video of one group that almost got away in kinney county 50 miles north of us. seven people made a break for it when deputies pulled over a suspected smuggler. they ranged from 20 to 35 years old from mexico. he is seeing an uptick in smuggling like this since the wires went up in eagle pass. gotaways are what keep border patrol up at night. director wray echoed that on capitol hill. >> the national security ramifications of the issues of the border are reflected more what we don't know about the people who snuck in. numbers don't tell the whole story. only takes a few people who can be responsible for a whole lot of harm. >> those concerns about what we don't know are amplified by what we do know. more than 73,000 people with criminal records were caught trying to cross the border last year, 169 people were on the terror watch list. so far this year border agents have stopped at least 58 people on the terror watch list trying to come into the country. >> bill: thank you. garrett tenney live in eagle pass, texas. today christopher wray is back on capitol hill before a house committee. we'll learn more. let's play one clip. senator rubio asking him who is coming across the border. >> there is a particular network that has some of the overseas facilitators of the smuggling network from isis ties that we're very concerned about and that we've been spending enormous amount of effort with our partners investigating exactly what that network is up to. it's something the subject of our current investigation. >> bill: the part you didn't hear. in open session there is only so much i want to go into and make public. rubio asked him is there a certain network we're concerned about that has facilitators involved with ties to isis and wray said correct. >> dana: yeah. yesterday we talked to general jack keane how isis is reestablishing a stronghold in afghanistan. what does that matter here? if you have a safe haven to plot and plan atakes and people on the ground, that's what happened and what the september 10th thinking is all about. numbers there. 58 known people coming across this year on the terror watch list that does not include the ones that got away. >> bill: gotaways are the big concern. a lot of the terror watch list may be from south american countries or from middle eastern countries like isis. there hasn't been a fair break down what we've been given publicly. the gotaways are a big, big deal. >> dana: this news about boeing. a whistleblower who was in the process of testifying against that company found dead in a hotel parking garage. the concerns he raised about the company's quality control. and a few minutes from now former special counsel robert hur will publicly defend his decision to let president biden off the hook for keeping classified documents in his garage. what lawmakers want to know. >> i think special counsel hur had one fundamental question to address. did joe biden keep and share classified information? the answer to that question is a resounding yes, yes, he did. with the freestyle libre 3 system... know your

another time in the interview he says the day is 4/20, 09. was i still vice president? i was, wasn't i? if it was 2013, when did i stop being vice president? his son beau's passing came up according to the a.p. it was biden himself who brought up beau's illness and death as he talked about a book he published later in 2017 about that painful time. what month did beau die, biden mused adding oh god, may 30. was it 2015 he died? biden asked again? also from these transcripts we're getting an inside look into the mood in the room. president biden was not antagonistic. many times cracking jokes. he joked with prosecutors asking them if they happened to find any, quote, risque photos of his wife in a bathing suit saying because they had looked through all of his stuff looking for classified information. bill. >> bill: wow, a lot there, hillary. more to come, too, 350 some odd pages. that you for that hillary vaughn. >> dana: let's bring in newt gingrich. great to have you, mr. speaker. listen to a portion of robert hur's testimony. my assessment in the report about the relevance. president's memory was necessary, accurate and fair. most importantly, what i wrote is what i believe the evidence shows. what i expect jurors would perceive and believe. i did not sanitize my explanation nor did i disparage the president unfairly. do you think he will be able to get those words out before republicans or democrats pounce? >> well, i suspect republicans, at least, will be pretty patient because hur is making their case. the fact there is one key question for robert hur. does he think that biden was faking it and is actually mentally better than he was in the interview or does he think biden is that mentally incompetent? those of us who watch the state of the union ask to have how much ritalin he was on at the time of the state of the union. not the person you will see in these interviews. so this really opens a very deep problem for the biden administration about whether or not this president literally is competent on a daily basis to become commander-in-chief. >> bill: we're going through the transcript and you heard some of hillary's reporting there. more, too, about the garage and corvette. the garage was getting crowded. biden said boxes were moved to make room for the corvette. to complicate things, it was being worked on, the car, because he was getting ready for an interview with jay leno. there are other details in here, too. we'll hear those play out. >> dana: love the name dropper. >> bill: why there was a ladder here and golf clubs there and it goes on and on. you mention the state of the union. democrats said there was a man with energy and enthusiasm and vigor. then you have this moment from new hampshire yesterday. roll this. >> president biden: am i allowed to take any questions? anybody have -- >> bill: so then it goes to color bars and you hear the staff cut him off. he was trying to say anybody here a staff member? think about this. you have a general campaign. i just showed on the map these battleground states. you have to be there. you can't be in your basement like 2travel. you have to do it a lot. how is this going to hold up, do you think? >> well, as i said, i've had two doctors who are members of congress send me emails saying he clearly had a huge amount of ritalin the night of the state of the union. that's very dangerous and side effects. there was a reason it was the first legally controlled drug under the united nations. and i think there is a real question here about a man based on that interview in new hampshire, clearly can't function as commander-in-chief. you have a war in ukraine, a war in israel, you have the threat of iran, the threat of china and north korea and you have a commander-in-chief who clearly is out of it a good deal of the time and i think this is a staff-driven presidency. this hearing today is important because it goes at the heart of whether or not in that long period of testimony we saw a basically joe biden who is incapable of being commander-in-chief but also raises one other question i want to point out. you take the total length of time he was mishandling secrets which goes all the way back to the time he was in the senate. you look at the number of places he had secrets that the degree to which they were out of control and you have to ask yourself tell me what they are trying donald trump for? if they didn't try biden for this many, many years of mishandling secrets and they didn't try hillary clinton for 32,000 erased emails, what is it exactly that trump did which was a much shorter period of time with all the documents under tight control? really shows you how sick the system is. >> bill: we were watching robert hur enter there. dana, we've done this a lot over the past couple of weeks with different individuals. didn't seem like there was any sponsor any questions thrown his way during the wall walk. >> dana: so he is there a little bit early. i'm sure he wants to get it done and over with. the doctors who are members of congress who said the president is on ritalin they don't know that for sure. that's just suspicion on their part. i think the doctor, karine jean-pierre said after his physical the president proves every day how he operates, how he thinks, etc. bottom line for them thursday night is that the democrats walked away from saying thank goodness he will be able to make it to the convention. >> sure. that was true for one night for two hours. and then you have him in new hampshire again becoming the normal joe biden. he is forgetful, i think very, very shaky, and often doesn't know what he is talking about. you had a briefly prepped up joe biden who i'm sure had slept extra long, had practiced his speech many times, and for two hours he was okay. now if you think two hours out of a week is enough to be president, he proved it. but as you said, he immediately back slid to the joe biden -- hur is describing the joe biden in new hampshire. describing a person who can't remember anything and he is describing a person who has had a lifetime of mishandling secrets, which is why i think it's as important to go after the length of time that biden has mishandled secrets. the number of places they were. you can argue that trump shouldn't have had them in mar-a-lago under lock and key but he knew what he was doing. in case of biden he said i didn't know they were there. i didn't understand that. >> dana: isn't that the issue of intent? >> we don't know what his intent is. i'm not sure he is mentally competent enough to have an intent. that's the whole point. you are dealing with a guy who is so lax, so out of touch with reality and so easily makes up things that you have no idea what his intent was and neither does he. if he can't remember when he was vice president, he probably can't remember what his intent was. >> bill: newt gingrich, thank you for your time. robert hur will be in the room. >> dana: we're watching it live on the house judiciary committee. brit hume is this week's guest on perino on politics. stream it wherever you listen to podcasts. he was fabulous. >> bill: president biden taking israel to task over its planned offensive in rafah. biden mentioned a red line for israel. what is the the red line and what does netanyahu do then and what about hamas?

>> the international atomic energy agency says there is not enough insight and oversight into iran's nuclear capabilities. the u.n. top watchdog says iran is not the allowing its inspectors into its facilities to monitor its nuclear program. all of this comes as they are also highlighting worries about the growing amount of uranium in iran and what it is stockpiling. particularly the amount that close to weapons grade. they say iran has uranium at 60% purity away from the weapons grade level of 90%. experts say according to the iaa numbers iran has enough to make several atomic weapons in theory. the united states called on iran to dilute all of the uranium it has enriched up to 60%. iran says it has the right to enrich uranium and denies the claim it is trying to make nuclear weapons. the u.s. and allies have stopped short of demanding a censure against iran at this point. because of the growing tensions in the middle east and some of the actions performed by iranian-backed groups this is only highlighting the growing concerns in that part of the world. >> bill: it is. thank you, alex, stay on it. alex hogan thank you for that in london. >> we can't leave a quarter of hamas terror army in place. they are there in rafah. this would be equivalent to saying after the allies fought back got through normandy, went through germany and said we'll leave a quarter of the nazi army if place and won't go into berlin, the last stronghold. it is either israel or hamas, no middle way. >> dana: benjamin netanyahu defending his nation's right to defeat an enemy sworn to its destruction. israel's planned offensive on rafah is raising tensions between president biden and israeli leader. benjamin hall wrote saved, a war reporter's mission to make it home. available today in paper back and run to the store and get it. order it. it is a fabulous book. benjamin joins us live in studio now. what a pleasure to have you here. you are following what's happening in gaza very closely. as we follow the domestic politics here and in the back and forth between biden and netanyahu, how is it playing there on the ground? >> i think one of the concerns right now is that the u.s. may be pulling back in a sense. i was in israel a few weeks ago and oats concern for many people. they understand that everyone i spoke to understands the reason the idf are inside gaza is to get rid of hamas. many acknowledge to do that you have to go to rafah. the message from president biden a few days ago a red line for him if they did is concerning for many of them. you have to be careful drawing red lines. president obama did it inside syria and that backfired on him. people are concerned right now about the continuing u.s. support. they all acknowledge if you get rid of hamas you have to go into rafah. >> bill: we need to play this out. two and one. this is the president the other day about this red line that may or may not be there. >> president biden: i'm never going to leave israel. the defense of israel is still critical. there is no red line. you cannot have 30,000 more palestinians dead as a consequence of going after. there are other ways to deal, to get to, to deal with the -- with the trauma caused by hamas. >> bill: that was over the weekend. this was yesterday cleanup in aisle four apparently or something. >> again, i don't think that it's productive to assign a red line terminology to what is a very complex set of policies. i think you've heard him say and reiterate he thinks that there are other approaches which we have taken and are taking that are more effective. >> bill: i think the point is that israel whats a vote in this and netanyahu has shown no inclination to back away from the fight to destroy hamas in gaza. >> he said clearly there is a red line for him and that is to make sure october 7th never happens again. that was his red line. there was also some perhaps reports of president biden considering reducing military aid and assistance to israel but he said not the iron dome something. nothing that would endanger israel. the thoughts are what possibly could that be that they are talking to israel about? it just worries the israelis at the moment. >> dana: so you are here in america talking about the paper back edition of your book. wondering about how sacrifice and survival. helped lead you to the podcast which i think is really great. i'm a podcast enthusiast. searching for heroes with benjamin hall. it seems seamless you wrote the book, an excellent book, now you get to talk about other heroes. >> one of the great things about book is so many people have been far more open and honest with me. for whatever reason they know you have gone through something difficult and want to share things they've gone through with you. that's where the podcast comes from. i've sat down with incredible people who got through difficult things and got through and came out stronger. that's what i want to understand. i spoke to doctors and people who work in the resilience sector. why do some people come out of difficult situations feeling stronger and why do other people fall off?
