7 a.m. >> ainsley: 7. [laughter] >> brian: i assumed. >> ainsley: i assumed it was me. >> brian: okay, go ahead. >> ainsley: it is 7:00 a.m. on the east coast. it is wednesday, march 20th, it's my aunt's birthday. has been, lynn. and this is "fox & friends." we have a fox news alert to start with. a federal court flip flopped why a texas law cracking down on illegal immigration was good to go last night when brian was going to sleep. he went to bed in a good mood and woke up in a bad mood. >> brian: i know. >> steve: headline your aunt lynn's story was ahead of our lead story. plus, in other news, here in new york, aoc's constituents tell us what they really think of her as a congresswoman. >> people, the pros stiewrks people getting robbed. >> i was a volunteer for her. she completely abandoned our community rachel campos-duffy will join us live. >> brian: my aunt kathy was born in june remind me. boyfriend. used to be known as a great tight end. boyfriend. and now game show host travis kelce might be be doing a game show? might he be smarter than a second grader. >> steve: survey says congratulations. >> brian: remember your mornings are better because you are with friends. glad you did. >> steve: breaking overnight we need a flow chart to follow it. a federal appeals court has blocked a texas immigration law that would allow police to arrest migrants suspected of crossing the border illegally. that happened after something else happened. >> ainsley: that's right. that action happening just hours after the supreme court allowed it to go into effect. >> brian: rich edson live at the white house. he had to redo his copy this morning he has a lot of whiteout. rich, update us. >> rich: we are out of white out here jarring morning too early for this to be honest with you. jarring day attention allows state law enforcement to detain those suspected of crossing into from mexico into texas illegally. good to go. a few hours later the circuit said no we will put this on hold while we consider the house. the white house ruled in on the supreme court. they said quote s.b. 4 is just another example of republican officials politicizing the border while blocking real solutions. president biden still out west. is he in arizona where yesterday he launched latino's biden harris to mobilize latino voters. >> it's an election between me and a guy named trump. and -- and -- and this is a guy who -- who's -- the way he talks about the latino community is -- well 2016 he called latino criminal drug dealers and rapists when he came down the escalator. now he says immigrants are poisoning the blood of our country. what the hell is he talking about? >> polls have shown republicans have made real inroads with latino voters. biden says he desperately needs the voters because states like this, arizona, is going to come down to a handful of states the entire election so he needs arizona. biden has been criticizing congressional republican force blocking the bipartisan immigration bill. the trump campaign and republicans have ripped this white house for reversing the trump administration's border policies. as there is continued criticism of this administration's border enforcement. >> texas, s.b. 4, operation lone star, they are doing more to help protect that border than everybody except maybe the frontline of dhs and they wouldn't need s.b. 4 if the federal government was stepping up to its responsibilities to protect that border. >> while in arizona today, biden is going to talk economy. announce $20 billion in grants and loans for the intel company to build manufacturing and semiconductors here in the united states. steve, ainsley and brian back to you. >> steve: it's about the chips. hey, rich, so he is in arizona. and he is going to texas. the number one issue is the border. he is not going anywhere near the border. they are blowing it again. >> no border trip on this trip. >> brian: part of the reason is it's more of a negative than a positive. he wants to lean on legislation that never even got a vote in the senate. rich, thank you. what he just basically said from what i could see his message to hispanic voters were come on, you voted for me last time, do it again. he talked about housing, affordable housing. house something really not a good story right now in america. whether it's the interest rates, whether it's the lack of inventory. i'm finding it hard to believe that he is going out again trying to yell people into thinking the economy is better. his numbers say it is. people aren't feeling it. >> ainsley: biden, if -- he flip-flops on this. because he looked at -- he has been for open borders. and then he looked at how americans reacted to that. especially as we got closer and closer to these primaries. >> steve: right. >> ainsley: he just started talking about immigration more. but then, overnight, it was his administration that filed this emergency application, saying, okay, the supreme court said if governor abbott, if the texas police, if they find an illegal immigrant, they can be arrested and then a judge can decide if they are going to be deported back to mexico. they said we don't like this, so they -- so they appeal it, the three judge panel from new orleans says that s.b. 4 should be blocked. a vote of two to 1. one of the guys who said the vote needed to be blocked was appointed by joe biden, one of these judges. >> steve: well, ainsley, you know, you set it up perfectly. here's the thing, last night, when we went to bed, and this is why we need a flow chart it, looked like a win for governor abbott. and people who want a strong border because the supreme court said, essentially, you know what? we're going to let the texas law be in effect until they exhaust their legal challenges. but then in the ruling, two of the conservative justices in the majority on the supreme court said, you know what? we might actually intervene -- we ultimately want to decide what is going to go on after the fifth circuit in new orleans does something. and then the fifth circuit read that, and a couple hours later they said, you know what? we are going to do something about it right now. we will have oral arguments this morning. and so, once again, there is, you know, even though texas is doing everything they can to stop the flow of migrants, the federal government is doing everything they can to stop the state of texas. >> brian: crime is an issue with people coming across the border. that's when the president speaks and comes out and says originally mexico is not sending us their best. oh my goodness he hates hispanics no. he doesn't like people that try to break into the border and some of which are criminals. then he says the illegal immigrants, the migrants that poison the blood of the country. not all, everybody understands trump at this point, is he talking about people here like ms-13 or some of the -- he said people aren't human, like the man and his brothers that have murdered laken riley. that is what is he referring to. so, joe biden's best play is look at the rhetoric that president trump is using. and the people say i'm not taking it personal. is he not talking about me. they see the difference. and that's why in the latest poll, from siena, "new york times," the president not only is close on the hispanic vote, is he winning by 6. beyond the margin of error. >> steve: there you go. >> president trump is. that's one of the reasons why joe biden went to a mexican restaurant in phoenix, arizona to press the flesh and try to say hey, i'm doing a good job. >> brian: aren't the best tacos at trump tower hasn't that been decided? >> steve: taco salad. >> brian: i stand corrected. >> ainsley: might be closed down. >> brian: what if she keeps the same menu. >> steve: that picture was on cinco de mayo which is coming up. >> brian: best time to bring it up. >> ainsley: kathy's birthday. >> steve: rachel campos-duffy joins us now. >> rachel: i believe it was a taco bowl but jill biden said we are all tacos. so do you remember that one? >> brian: what is worse? >> steve: is he inhe is in ariza today. trying to appeal to the latino voters because they have turned their backs on him. brian mentioned this a moment ago hey, look, i'm president because you voted me in, help me against donald trump. how he says i need you even worse now. >> rachel: yeah. he needs them. he is losing them. but he doesn't want to change the policies that the people want. so, you know, hispanics in texas and arizona are no different than any of the other citizens in texas and arizona. they see what's happening across the border. they want it changed. joe biden has se zero intentionf changing it. fighting the governor of texas who is trying to do what his administration won't do, and is he trying -- you know, cutting the wires that they are putting up. fighting them in the courts. making this difficult to stop the flow. he clearly wants this. it's intentional. and he is not just losing hispanics by the way in arizona and in texas who are feeling the firsthand effects of the border. as you know, the impact of the border is happening now, you know, if you live in new jersey, if you live in new york. if you live in chicago. you are feeling it there. those are border states now because so many of the migrants are being fe flown tax dollars o those states. in addition to that, another interesting thing, virginia is an important state. with a lot of hispanics. a lot of el salvadorians. you just did that story on el salvador and the way they have kept crime at bay there they have made it the most safe country from the most dangerous to the safest country in the western hemisphere. if you don't think that the people in el salvador are telling the diaz pra community in virginia who is dealing with high time in d.c. and virginia area what's happening in el salvador, they know what it takes lower crime. it means you neeeed cops. you need consequences. so that is also impacting -- they don't like the president. when he came to d.c. for the cpac. the biden administration was not happy with him or mele also using many of these tough on crime policies. they got the cold shoulder from the biden administration because they know they are tough on crime and it makes them look bad. >> ainsley: locking up all the gangs. so joe biden has this three-day swing through nevada, arizona, and texas. is he launching this new latinos con biden and harris. and is he running these campaign ads in english anding spanish and spanglish. campaign organizers many of them in place in arizona. his campaign hired more than 40 staffers for nevada and arizona. this is what his message to the latino community. listen to this and we will get your reaction. >> you're the reason why in large part i beat donald trump. >> yes. >> let's beat him again. [cheers and applause] [cheers] >> well, you know, i need you. i need you badly. i need the help. kamala and i desperately need your help. >> ainsley: is he desperate, right, rachel? >> rachel: he is. you know, the people can remember what the trump economy was like. they can remember when they could afford to, you know, groceries, whether they could afford gas and maybe afford a little vacation for their family. so the economy is a big problem for him. but also these border issues and crime. people just want to feel safe and that's what i -- that's what i experienced yesterday when i was, you know, in jackson heights and al alexandria ocasio-cortez district. people just want to want crime to come down. they want to be able to walk their children down the streets without feeling like they're in danger. and these are the everyday issues that people are facing. and they know that the democrat party has turned their back on them. and i'm telling you, it's very basic stuff. the economy, the border, and, of course, crime. >> brian: yeah. in fact here is a little of your piece when you went out to find out what the people in oklahoma's district think of her. >> ocasio. >> alexandria ocasio-cortez? >> she is never here. [speaking spanish] >> i was a volunteer for her. she completely abandoned our community. i don't agree with her. >> no. >> she said i hope that she sees this interview because we all helped her get elected. [speaking spanish] [rachel translating] she says she only cares about washington and her money. she says nobody loves her here anymore. she abandoned us. >> so the question is, rachel, when she runs for re-election, will she win? >> listen the powerful of incumbency a powerful thing. i think if there was a really strong candidate, she would be in trouble. at least especially in this neighborhood. now, she doesn't have a congressional office in this neighborhood. i have to tell you, it was shocking. i arrived around 9:10 a.m. in the morning. the prostitutes as you just saw some footage of it, the prostitutes are already out. people complain that they can't walk and feel safe after 7:00 p.m. at night, which means many of the businesses have to close. you see some of those vendors out there on the sidewalks. i talked to restaurant owners, business owners, they said, listen, they are selling even liquor. they said to me think about how much i have to pay for liquor license and they are selling liquor on the streets with no license, no health inspectors for the food being sold there as well. so, you know, they basically feel like it's turning into a third world street. this used to be a very nice, family-friendly district. >> steve: right. >> rachel: it's changed. they are very upset about it. they say they have never seen alexandria ocasio-cortez in their district they are very upset about it. >> brian: we will have more of the full package what you did yesterday afternoon. >> ainsley: great job. >> steve: very nice. >> brian: i don't think prostitution is illegal in new york? right? you can do it. >> ainsley: i have no idea. i have never needed one. >> brian: good point. i don't think they are prosecuting it. >> steve: well, here's the thing. her point is there's a problem with the migrants in queens. there is also a problem in south florida with haitians who are trying to run for their lives, get in little boats, and set sail for the sunshine state that is the reason why lawrence is down in south florida. >> he? miami where the sun is starting to come up. this is becoming a bigger and bigger problem all the time. the governor, yesterday, lawrence, set them up. you come here and next thing you know you are going to be in massachusetts. >> lawrence: yes. a huge problem, guys. for so long we have told you the problem on the southern border. obviously, it's an easier journey to travel across the rio grande. now you have another crisis in haiti, every time there's a crisis that breaks out in the country, you see those folks come across the border but they are coming by sea. and it is a dangerous journey. i talked to the florida fish and wildlife yesterday as we did a ride along, patrolling the area. and they said the time to come across on those boats, they pack hundreds of people in these boats, and it takes five to six days. they try to stop some of these boats, the coast guard does. but, if they can't stop the boats, then florida fish and wildlife steps in and allot of times it turns into a rescue operation because these folks then stop -- not even docks but places where they see some sort of land. and then there is a five to six mile swim. of course a lot of them almost drowning. florida fish and wildlife is there obviously to save the day guys and enforce the law. >> brian: all right, lawrence. thank you so much. we will check in with you again. meanwhile 16 minutes after the hour. carley shimkus you have the other news. we begin in new york city. >> carley: that's right we do begin in new york city. a property owner is arrested after a tense standoff with squatters. the homeowner was trying to sell this $1 million property that she inherited from her family and police had to intervene because she tried to change the locks. police told her she has to go to housing court to resolve this ongoing issue. happening today, daniel penny is expected back in court for the first time since his motion to dismiss a manslaughter charge against him was denied. the marine veteran now faces up to 15 years in pr for placing jordan neely in a chokehold last year. penny pleaded not guilty and he restrained neeley because he was protecting other passengers on a subway train. despite witnesses describing penny as a hero. alvin bragg is pushing forward with this case. happening today on capitol hill, several of hunter biden's former business associates, including tony bobulinski set to testify before the house oversight committee it. is the latest phase of the biden impeachment inquiry. the president's son was invited to testify as well at hunter's request. but his lawyer has rejected the invitation. the committee says the hearing will go on with or without the first son. lawyers for former president trump and eight co-defendants have filed an emergency appeal to remove d.a. fani willis from the georgia election case. the lawyer who initiated the effort to remove ill will his joined us earlier a "fox & friends" exclusive interview. >> i definitely think she could be disqualified. this commission in georgia hopefully looking into this and they could disqualify her. there is a lot of over avenues that the judge even outlined in his order. lots of over people are looking at this. she is facing re-election. she has two opponents right now. there is a lot of other checks and balances that are in place. plus, more information can come forward and we are continuing to investigate. >> carley: trump's lead counsel writing quote the motion notes that the court found that willis' actions created an appearance of impropriety and an odor of mendacity that lingers in this case. but it nonetheless refuses to dismiss the case or disqualify her. to a fox business alert. the federal reserve is meeting today and a rate decision is due at 2:00 p.m. eastern time. the board is widely expected to keep key interest rate unchanged as it continues to fight persistent inflation. chairman jerome powell has said he expects to cut interest rates three times this year. and, is travis kelce smarter than a fifth grader? >> no, man. we both got kicked out of preschool. >> when is the last time travis kelce read a book. >> malcolm gladwell books. >> which ones? outliers? >> i would like to say lier. -- honestly, you guys know i can't read. [laughter] >> carley: at least is he honest. according to variety, the kansas city chiefs tight end is in talks to host a reboot of the show are you smarter than a fifth grader. there are questions of how much of a time commitment kelce would have to make if the super bowl champion continues playing football. those are the headlines. sounds like he has a good personality that podcast with his brother is huge. >> steve: the game show though historically. >> carley: record one. >> steve: do a week's ghort one day. he might have the time. >> carley: i think so. >> brian: he wants to be an action star. you don't be an action star and game show host. unless one of the kids had a control or he tries to run away. >> steve: maybe he could do it all. >> ainsley: you take what you can get, brian. >> steve: carley, thank you very much. by the way, brian, i googled it, prostitution is not legal in new york. >> ainsley: no. >> brian: really? is it doesn't seem like anyone is cracking down. oh a misdemeanor. >> steve: that's still illegal. it's a misdemeanor. >> brian: doesn't seem like we are enforcing it. let's see, if you are a prostitute, when is the last time you have been arrested. call us, remember night shift -- in night shift they unionized the prostitutes and got dental. >> steve: that was more about a mortuary. >> ainsley: foxnews.com. >> steve: do we have a large demo of those people? >> brian: we don't know they could have a nielsen box. >> ainsley: probably worked last night and they are asleep. >> brian: right. good point. 20 minutes after the hour. job generals details in afghanistan. slamming the administration for not following their advice. >> the fundamental mistake was the timing of the state department and this was too little too late. >> it was my judgment that was far too little, far too late. >> ainsley: one gold star father who lost his son in that chaos is going to join us next. ♪ got you going through it? grab nucala for fewer asthma attacks. nucala is a once-monthly add-on injection for severe eosinophilic asthma. not for sudden breathing problems. allergic reactions can occur. get help right away for swelling of face, mouth, tongue, or trouble breathing. infections that can cause shingles have occurred. don't stop steroids unless told by your doctor. tell your doctor if you have a parasitic infection. may cause headache, injection site reactions, back pain, and fatigue. ask an asthma specialist if nucala is right for you. the long-lasting scent of gain flings made it smell like dave was in his happy place... ...the massage chair at the mall. but...he wasn't. gain flings with oxi boost and febreze.

city. we have headlines for you. we start with this. the israeli defense forces have killed over 90 hamas terrorists and have arrested another 160 in a new raid at gaza's largest existing hospital. and as the idf offensive grinds on, canada is going to stop all armed sales to israel. that's the word from the prime minister africa madian parliament passed nonbinding resolution in canada. this comes as the republican party slammed senate majority chuck schumer for his call last week for elections in israel. and those are some of the headlines, ainsley. >> ainsley: okay. thank you so much, steve. now, up on capitol hill top generals who oversaw the u.s. withdrawal from afghanistan are now slamming administrative officials for not following their advice creating a chaotic exit. >> i was concerned about the different pace of department of defense planning as compared to department of state planning. >> there is zero doubt in my mind there were mistakes made. >> the fundamental mistake, fundamental flaw was the timing of the state department. >> and that was too little too late. >> it was my judgment that it was far too little, far too late. >> ainsley: our next guest is a gold star father of that young man right there lance corporal jared schmitz one of the 13 fallen service members mark schmitz the father joins us now. mark, i cannot imagine how you feel when you are watching those hearings and you have generals that warned the biden administration not to do this. what's your reaction? >> you know, it blows my mind that the attention has been so much on these generals and not on blinken, for example. he is the -- i think he is the biggest culprit out of all of this. now that these generals are retired, i think they can freely speak a little more about what is going on. i still think they are being hunter biden. so much of this is it's classified. i don't understand why that would need to be. this is an event from the past. you know, they have finished the latest investigation. centcom in early april to get an update on that report. i fully suspect most of it is still going to be redacted which leaves us with so many empty questions. >> ainsley: general milley said he wasn't in favor of the afghanistan withdrawal he wanted to do it in a smaller form or fashion. general mckenzie he blamed the biden administration, the state department for policy decisions and creating a dangerous environment. 13 service members died. i mean, there are consequences to elections as we can see. what is your message to joe biden, to blinken, to the administration when they make decisions that effect all of these faces we are seeing on the screen and your life for the rest of your life? >> first and foremost, i personally request the resignation of blinken. i think he needs to go. you know, you look at this administration and the policies that they have been making since biden took office, and i am not trying to go political with this but we are watching embassies being evacuated left and right. it shows a complete weakness on behalf of this administration. >> ainsley: yeah. >> and something has to change. >> ainsley: mark, i want you to hear this soundbite a retired navy seal mike sarraille he was on fox nation talking about the 13 lives that were lost. >> the war against islamic extremism is a generational fight and we are seeing that right now and our politicians our leaders should have stepped up and just been honest that hey, we may never leave afghanistan and set the expectations for the american people. the fact that this panel saw 1 young americans, some who were born after 9/11 lose their lives in a reason that we deployed to multiple times it, feels a little bit like failure on our part. >> ainsley: you know, there was another gold star father that was very frustrated at the state of the union address as you saw. he was arrested for standing up after laken riley, the president called her lincoln, when he mentioned her. then you had this gold star dad steve nikoui who stood up and started yelling out the abby gate so the president would remember his son, too. he was arrested. >> we couldn't believe he was around. thankfully this d.c. a.g. dropped the charges. this happened late yesterday. what happened to that. >> he was a hero. there were seven of us in the audience that night, myself included. we had all talked about standing up and doing what he did. and out of respect out of those who had invited us to come and be in attendance, most of us elected, obviously, not to speak out. but for what steve did, i think it's fantastic. i mean, this was a dream of his to have his son's name uttered in those walls. and he did that i mean, unfortunately, he had to do it himself, because here we are t o and a half years later, and biden has still yet to mention our names -- our kids' names, i'm sorry. yes, the fact that they dropped the charges, that's great. but they should have never been brought in the first place. >> ainsley: i agree with you. tell us really quickly a little bit about jared, what you miss most. he looks just like you. that picture of the two of you all are just spitting images of each other. >> jared was such a great human being. i don't recall him ever having an enemy. he loved everybody. his sisters and the rest of our family miss him terribly. we miss his smile and his charismatic personality. his law officer. that was probably the most infectious. so he is just one hell of a human being. i can't wait to see him again. >> ainsley: you will. you will will. thank you so much, mark. is he a hero. god bless you. >> thank you. >> ainsley: with a monday deadline fast approaching, trump fights to keep his assets out of letitia james' hands. kerri kupec urbahn

day of spring. the full first day of spring because te'o arrived last night at 11:00. take a look at the temperatures. because we are into the 40's right now. yesterday at this time we were into the 30's. we will take it. look at the northern plains and the you were midwest where it's cold enough for snow. we have several clipper systems moving their way in and we could see upwards of a foot or more of snow in the next couple of day because we have back-to-back springtime snow for these areas, including north of chicago and sioux falls towards the western great lakes there. so chicago, your average midwest last snow is the end of march and minneapolis in april. so we are getting close to it. we are going to see some pretty big snow totals as we go through the weekend and then an east coast storm this weekend. cold enough for snow in some of these areas across the interior northeast, this area of low pressure will develop and, of course, we will keep tracking that throughout the workweek. fox weather.com for all of your latest details. dawn will not have to shovel, brian kilmeade. >> brian: it's true. i put the shovels away. >> janice: oh no that will jinx us. we will see, bye. >> brian: happening today on capitol hill a group of hunter biden's former business associates, including tony bobulinski set to testify before the house oversight committee. todd piro is here with more. todd? >> todd: yeah, brian, good morning. this is the latest phase of the biden impeachment inquiry. the president's son was asked to testify as well at hunter's own request. remember? i need testify in public. his lawyer now saying, quote: your blatant plan for media event is not a proper proceeding but an obvious attempt to throw hail mary pass after the game has ended. mr. biden declined your invitation to this carnival side show. house oversight committee chair james comer says the hearing will go on with or without the first son. hunter's former business associate tony bobulinski like you said, brian, will be on hand. comer is expected to open by explaining that investigator found no evidence so far directly tying the president's son to the family's business dealings but an excerpt obtained by fox news digital says the following as well. what is apparent after a year of investigation is that the bidens do not work in any traditional sense of the word. they do not work as consultants or lawyers or advisers. the bidens don't sell a product or a service or a set of skills. the bidens sell joe biden. today's hearing expected to start at 10:00 a.m. eastern. brian, back to you. >> brian: jason -- tony bobulinski will be explosive. jason go alan miss, he is in prison, testifying from prison. serving 14 years. another business partner of hunter biden in his little circle there who ends up in a lot of trouble. >> todd: no hunter today. >> brian: thanks so much, todd. president trump firing back as he has five days to pay $454 million to put that up as a bond in his new york civil fraud case. >> are you confident that you can pay the 454 million? >> i built a great company. one of the greatest companies anywhere in the country, especially when it comes to real estate. i have some of the greatest assets in the world. and this is a rigged trial. this was a rigged trial by a crooked judge and a crooked attorney general. and we're fighting it out with them. we have a lot of cash and great company. they want to take it away or at least take the cash element away. billions of dollars in value, billions of dollars in properties but they would like to take the cash away. >> brian: those assets under threat of seizure by attorney general letitia james and begging the question if this can happen to trump what would it mean for the average american and other rich americans who happen to be doing business in new york? fox news legal analyst kerri kupec urban joins us now. kerry, this is unbelievable. the time the clock is ticking. what options are left for the former president? >> he doesn't really have any. he has to pay this money by monday. and, brian, this whole situation, honestly, it shocks the conscience because, think about it. if new york can abuse the law in this way against donald trump, and use the law against him in a way the law has never ever been used against someone in the history of new york, and they can abuse it against the former leader of the free world, still a very powerful and wealthy man who has unlimited resources at his disposal, what hope does the average person have? i was talking to someone over the weekend a woman who owns elder care agency. shoe is not in washington and in politics. she told me she likes trump. i asked her what do you think about all these cases against him her immediate reaction was they are not doing that to him. they are doing that to us. i think that's a very real concern of americans. it should be. whether you are a republican or an american, if you don't have a free and fair justice system, which in new york right now we do not, you don't have a free country. >> brian: a couple of options. they say he could declare chapter 11 bankruptcy. he doesn't want to do that insiders are also saying that trump is thinking about doing nothing and letting things just see and see what's going on about what you just said. see the attorney general walk over and say trump tower is mine and think about it. we're not saying -- there was one verdict. but he has great shot at an appeal. if he wins the appeal and they have his assets and they sell it, is he just out of luck. even though he wins. >> totally. evidence loses his building. let's talk about this bond for a second. you know, this crazy half a billion dollars bond? it's not like donald trump is a flight risk. right? so it would be perfectly reasonable and by the way consistent with how courts operate to work out something with him where they can reduce this bond or honestly waive it all together. and the fact that new york is so unwilling to do that it's just -- it displays a blatant partisanship that is frankly very disturbing to me as a lawyer, to someone who worked at the department of justice, to see the fact, to see these judges and lawyers abuse the law in the way that they are. against this -- against the former president. >> brian: we will see if he does nothing and looks like a bully, chapter 11, giving him some protection, or this judge will step up and say, listen, it's excessive, knock it down to 100 million and do the bond at 100 million. but no bank will do it and guess what they are afraid of retribution being the bank that helped out donald trump and being in new york. i thought that was really significant. so, that's one thing. politically, i think the president benefits from this. look at his enemies, no one is comfortable with this. i look at kevin o'leary, kevin o'leary says the word is out, you don't do business in new york. it's just not worth it. let's say you have some views that are conservative. and that gets word to this mayor, or the attorney general. or the governor, then you are in trouble. and it's just not worth it where you could do business in 49 other states or maybe another country. how about this? a judge, an obama judge has ruled that illegal immigrants have second amendment rights? so they can go get a gun. tell me about the different wrinkles to this judgment. >> brian, you can't make this stuff up. okay, so there is a federal law on the books that says that people who are non-citizens can't possess firearms. very straightforward, makes sense, right? common sense. we all understand. this well, this judge in illinois took a look at this law and she declared it unconstitutional as applied to a particular illegal immigrant because here's why. she said well the law itself is fine. it's constitutional. but, you know, given some recent court rulings that by the way have nothing to do with illegal immigration just have to do with firearms. looking at those, i think we need to take a look back at american history and make sure as applied to this gentleman it's okay. so do you know what she did? she went back and looked at the american revolution and apparently then, some british loyalists were assessed and they were determined to be nonthreatening and they were not dangerous so they were allowed to have firearms to defend themselves at that point. so she said because of that, this individual, he's not a criminal, he has a job, so, you know what? he can have a gun. and it's fine. >> brian: nuts. marco rubio talked about this last night. it's incredible. it's crazy. kerry, we will look to see what happens and the president has a few more days to find out whether a this ruling is going to be if they are going to knock down the 400 million plus to something more attainable. thanks, kerri. >> thank you. >> south florida stepping up to block haitian

sends them martha's vineyard. the chaos will only get worse without action. let's bring in florida g.o.p. congressman carlos gimenez. thank you for joining the program this morning. >> my pleasure. >> congressman, this used to be your area you represented it for a long time. what is florida doing. i was out there on the ride along yesterday. what are they doing to secure this part of the country? >> well, actually i still represent that area. i'm the congressman that represents the keys in southwest miami-dade. i used to be the mayor of miami-dade so i represented the entire area before. what the governor is doing is what great republican governors are doing around the country like governor abbott and governor desantis is. they are stepping up to protect their states when the federal government either won't or can't. doesn't have the capacity to do so. so i congratulate governor desantis on stepping up and trying to protect, you know, the areas that i represent in south florida south florida and frankly the entire state of florida. i wanted to get your reaction to this because i think it shows the heartlessness of the left. this is governor healey. >> it's a horrible situation. horrible allegation and, you know, my thoughts are with the victim and her family. i think we have the right systems in place. unfortunately this is, you know, a terrible incident. you don't want to see anything like this happen. this is also an individual who came in lawfully under the federal government through a federal program, it's unfortunate that, you know, from time to time things will happen congressman you got the massachusetts governor a sanctuary state. and this her position. >> yeah. we can't allow this to happen. look, there is an organization called caracon put together transitional government. nothing will take hold unless we have multiaxial force actually go into haiti and restore order. if not, we may very well have a guy nicknamed barbecue be the next dictator of haiti. and barbecue, he got his name because he burns people alive. that's what is happening in haiti. that's what we are facing. and we better take some action to control it. and we also need to control our borders. and, again, i congratulate the governor for doing the things that he has to do to control the border and protect the people of south florida. >> lawrence: just so interesting that you have got all of these governors that are republicans, whether it's desantis or my home state of texas with greg abbott. taking the action that the federal government should be taking. and they sue us instead of helping us. congressman, we got to leave it there thanks so much for joining the program. >> my pleasure. >> lawrence: thank you, sir. all right, carley, you have got some headlines for us. >> carley: president biden walking off stage at the start of a campaign event in phoenix yesterday. of. >> well, folks, i have to tell you straight up, i like y'all but i couldn't resist that little baby. >> carley: the president is set to deliver remarks in arizona today before heading to texas. former first lady melania trump is teasing that she may be heading back to the campaign trail to support her husband. >> mrs. trump, are you going to return to the campaign trail with your husband? >> stay tuned. >> carley: stay tuned she says. she has not been at any public campaign events so far in trump's re-election bid. but that could change, steve. over to you. >> steve: thank you very much. and stay tuned because the texas law cracking down on illegal
