pirro along with harold ford jr., jesse watters, dana perino, and greg gutfeld. it s 5:00 in new york city and this is the five judge jeanine: the white house is doubling down on a new border hoax. two years after falsely accusing border agents of whipping migrants, the administration is now falsely claiming texas governor greg abbott for the tragic drowning deaths of three migrants. last week a mother and her two children drowned in the rio grande while attempting to cross the border. the white house not waiting for the facts instead blasting out a statement that claims that texas officials, quote, blocked border agents from attempting a rescue by shutting down a part of a public park. and, of course, the liberal media ate up every word. in texas, the republican governor prevents federal officials from trying to rescue a woman and her two children who drowned trying to cross a river in texas. agents were physically barred by texas authorities from entering the area
ha ha, happy tuesday everyone, i am tom shillue in for greg gutfeld who i m told is busy fighting extradition. so before we get to the news, i thought it might be appropriate to look at some of the new year s resolutions from some famous names and faces. for example, president joe biden, his new year s resolution? continue to cheat death. hunter biden. find that envelope i left somewhere in the white house. commander the dog, eat more salads and fewer secret service agents. kamala harris, to resolve to make resolutions for the new year, because it s new and it s a year. [cheers and applause]. i might add stop laughing, that might help, too. the custodian who cleans the senate judiciary room. three words, use more bleach. brian kilmeade, i will continue to be the butt of greg s jokes. and finally randi weingarten, add 40 pounds to my bench press. she ll make it. on to the monologue. so i m looking over tonight s headlines trying to think of the perfect story to start the s
what were they? how much has been recovered. do we definitively know the level of threat they posed or lack thereof. bipartisan critics have been saying there s plenty that isn t classified that the american public has a right to know, and we are now waiting, as you see, for the president to come to that podium and begin. but in the meantime, let s talk to nbc news senior white house correspondent kelly o donnell, along with nbc news capitol hill correspondent, ryan nobles and robert gibbs, former obama press secretary and an msnbc political analyst. robert, let me start with you, you know the criticism has been out there, the pressure the white house has been under, you have been in the white house when a president was under pressure. what does he need to deliver right now? well, i think the more than people want to know what level of new information we have about the three objects that have been shot down recently. i also think the president needs to outline what our post
coverage and we ll start with david spunt tracking president biden and his reaction to the border crisis from wilmington, delaware. we ve got griff jenkins tracking conditions on the ground from the southern border and we ll turn to griff first, a closer look from mission, texas. hi, griff. hey, gillian and kristin. we re down on the border in mission, texas, part of the rio grande sector. what s happening at this moment see this white bus coming through the border wall in the distance about a mile is the rio grande river where we re apprehending record number of migrants. this is the 13th bus i ve seen since i ve been here today. it s full of migrants that have been processed and we have exclusive photos, i want to show you where that bus just came from. these photos from here show that the processing center, a temporary processing center has been set up outdoors, you can see in the photo, the white buses, you can see migrants all over the place, they ve had to set up a po
the chances of a commercial aircraft running into one of these weather balloons and being downed is really remote. thankfully. so much of what we re seeing here is political posturing in congress. every issue turns into now an attack on the administration. the president did a good jobment i don t think there s any great fear in the country about what s flying overhead. the chinese balloon they shot down first. that was a brazen affront or a sovereignty. so that one had to be shot down, and in the future, i think we ll take them down before they come over the united states. what s the over arching message you heard, kelly? i was struck by the fact this was focused more on the three later devices and that the president was careful about an audience that went beyond the united states, and that s the
