tuesday. mark meredith in palm beach, florida with more. mark: hey, good afternoon from hot and humid palm beach, florida as we await any potential motion that former president trump s lawyers may file and we are also looking for those redactions may be like because, again, the former president s legal team is giving claiming that the search here at mar-a-lago was a violation of trump s fourth amendment rights and while we await the motion we are looking to see when it may be filed or justice department response will be to this and we will be looking to see what happens on thursday, that s when federal prosecutors have to submit to a judge proposed redactions to criminal affidavit detailing what led up to search in mar-a-lago, we are also hearing from tennessee senator marsha blackburn. we still do not know exactly what they are up to and we know it s broad and far-teaching, going for documents anywhere between 2017 and 2021. it wasn t a focused raid, if you will. mark: we
You have to get quality candidates that can cross the line. with winning in a primary is nothing. means nothing. you can t govern if you don t win in november and that s all that matters. witch lowery, chief of national review thinks 2024 cheney run will help donald trump. mike. mike: lucas tomlinson live in washington, lucas, thanks a lot. let s bring in our political panel, matthew basset and richard fowler, fox news contributor and american radio host. good to see you, mike. good morning, mike. mike: fox poll has sitting republican senator ron johnson down 4 points to democratic challenger barnes, what do you make of that, richard? look, i think it says this, we like to skip chapters and in this particular election, we need to slow it down a bit and go page by page, word by word because this election has been fascinating. republicans have decided to make the run on immigration and inflation.
Redacted from the federal magistrate in florida and how it plays with the voters. if you look at the races even in a world where people think immigration is the number 1 voting problem, what they don t want to see buses moving to and from texas to washington, d.c. they want washington, d.c. representatives from all 50 states to come up with a real tangible solution and that solution is one border security but it also requires dealing with those folks who are living in this country in the shadows, how do we bring them out a shadows and create pathway to citizenship and how do we modernize immigration system because the laws were written before the year i was born. they don t want the political football anymore, they don t want to have a conversation about the border unless the candidates are willing to talk about real solutions on how to fix it and not just the border but the entirety of our immigration system including the fact that a majority of folks come to the country illegally a
We don t have it so now i m teasing it too. [laughter] mike: he s basically saying he s concerned about candidate quality in terms of winning back the senate majority. thinks perhaps that some of the nominees may not be able to win in november. matthew, finish off the point on that. well, let s go back to arizona, mike. the number 1 issue for voters in arizona is the border. we just e clipped the mark of 2 million people entering our country illegally. we are on track for this year for 2.3. that s an addition to the 1.7 that enter our country illegally last year with a million known got aways, that s 5 million people. that is what number one in the minds of arizona voters. so i think senator kelly will have a lot of problems. mike: all right, so the wild card in all of this is how does this mar-a-lago raid/document controversy play out in november? we will see what gets
