former georgia congressman and judiciary ranking member doug collins. okay, mike huckabee, first to you. a new cbs poll, trump has his widest national lead over biden ever at 5 points. it's 52-47. trump is up 4 points in 538. mike huckabee, people saying that was an exciting, momentous, electrifying rnc, but with we've got reports coming in now, mike, biden -- the biden campaign just concluded their all hands on deck phone call. he's not dropping out. reports are coming in that biden is saying it's all about protecting his 50-year legacy, and he's just now saying he's the unifire. isn't his party fracturing? >> you know, it's a tough thing for joe biden. i think doug and i would both tell you that the only thing harder getting into a race for political office is the decision to get out. and joe biden's having a real hard time, probably because he's

really not that cognitive of how everything is coming down on him. but the sad thing is joe biden has a choice to go out gracefully on his own terms and make the decision, or it looks like the democrats are going to keep getting to the point of frustration where instead of letting him make that decision, they may just decide to throw open the convention and toss him out the door, and that's a terrible way to end -- elizabeth: it's really something. it was an emotional moment, doug, of connection last night. president trump really capturing everyone's attention for the first time talking about how he was nearly assassinated. he also embraced the fire gear belonging to corey comperatore. the funeral held today for the former fire chief killed by that aa saws sin's bullet. let's watch president trump here. >> i will tell you exactly what happened, and you'll never hear it from me a second time because it's actually too painful to tell. when i heard a loud whizzing sound and felt something hit me

really, really hard on my right ear, i said to myself, wow with, what was that? it can only be a bullet. and moved my right hand to my ear, brought it down. my hand was covered with blood. the amazing thing is that the prior to the shot if i had not moved my head at that very last instant, the aa saws a sin's bullet -- assassin's bullet would have perfectly hit its mark, and i would not be here tonight. we would not be together. [applause] elizabeth: doug, a really emotional moment. your reaction? >> my reaction is i know, les, y'all have beth -- liz, y'all

have both been with this president. that's what we've seen over the years, sort of that donald trump that you don't see very often, but it's very real. it's the very thing that connects with americans. they understand that he cares. those were the moments in the first part of that speech when people were really paying attention. beyond this kauai who's a president, who makes big speeches, who talks and tells us what he wants to do, but it showed that he was at an event that really humbled him, that h, focused him on why he's running. and you saw it throughout the week with his kids, with his grandkids, when people were speaking, he showed an engagement that he's really taking in this moment i can't wait to see the fall with him campaigning and that being a part of how he goes about showing that compassion that we have seen, others have seen, mike, i know you've seen, that the going to be expressed from

this campaign. elizabeth: yeah. he's got a rally tomorrow in michigan with j.d. vance. so, mr. huckabee, what doug just said. your reaction to what doug just said. you know, facebook's mark zuckerberg now calls president trump a, quote, bad ass. okay, that got me saying a bad word on tv, but your to all this, mr. huckabee. [laughter] >> yeah. you're sounding like my mother who never could curse, so she would just say sometimes that guy's got himself in a mell of a hess, and that was as close as she could come. i think i sense that on you, liz. elizabeth: good, i'll use it. [laughter] >> what i think we saw this week was donald trump intuitively reacting as a leader does. that moment he was shot, there's no preparation for that. you don't have a textbook, you don't train or for it. that was intuitive reaction for him to stand up, blood coming down his face, fist in the air and saying to that crowd to reassure them fight, fight,

fight. what we saw joe biden in a a juxtaposition picture was him crawling up the steps of air force one with covid. so one guy is overcoming a bullet wound, and the if other guy is overcome by covid. that's the campaign. and i just don't see how the democrats work their way out of this with or without joe biden. because if he gets off the ballot, they still have to defend their horrible policies, and donald trump can run on what he has done as president. and and i'd rather take his positions any day of the week, twice on sunday. elizabeth: yeah. so the governor said, that's what we're hearing too. no democrat wants to step in and have a black mark on their record, you know, at the 1 111th hour, stepping in for joe biden. they're in a mad scramble to see who would want to do that. doug, i want to back up. there's context here that that i think some in the media are missing. we are in a unique american moment, doug. polls for years show americans have been saying politicians

broke the compact. they broke faith with voters who pay their paychecks. they have said just keep us safe, keep us process produce. trump saying he's going to do. that pew research says, you know, party control of d.c. has been whipping back and forth with accelerating speed for generations. the polls show the discontent and distrust in government, doug. it's the vietnam war, watergate, iran contra, george h.w. bush's read my lips, no new taxes. bill clinton lying about his sex scandals. dick cheney falsely claiming iraq has wmds, dragging america into war. the financial crisis, obama polarizing and dividing america with far-left ideologies, lecturing america's bad, only he can fix it, and joe biden and his family doing the same thing and profiting, accused of profiting from government access, selling influence. voters have been saying donald trump is not beholden to anyone. he just wants to fix america. >> yeah.

i mean, that's a big part of it. and i think you heard this from j.d. vance, i think that's one of the reasons why you saw the vice president pick made lake it was. i think donald trump comes at it from a business perspective that is coming forward though with many years of experience of dealing with public, dealing with that, you know, from the entertainment side to the building side. he understood how to get things done. and people are desperate for that. look, i made this comment on mike's show, huckabee's show as well, we've got to get back to not divorcing politics and reality, and donald trump does that very well. he makes reality statements, he talks about what we can and can't do and what he wants to do. and i think that's the after fir meation that people need to see. they don't need a government that just tells them what they think they need to hear, i -- they need a government that works for them. elizabeth: that's right. let's get your reaction to president trump talking about healing america, policy fixes to fix america's broken business

model. watch this. >> we have an inflation crisis that is making life unaffordable, ravaging the incomes of working and low income families and crushing, just simply crushing our people like never if before. so tonight i make this pledge to the great people of america, i will end the devastating inflation crisis immediately, bring down interest rates and lower the cost of energy -- [cheers and applause] we will drill, baby, drill. at the center of our plan for economic leaf are massive tax cuts for -- relief -- workers that include something else that's turned out to be very popular. it's called no tax on tips. [cheers and applause] no tax on -- next, we will end the ridiculous and actually incredible waste of taxpayer dollars that is fueling the inflation crisis. and all of the trillions of dollars that are sitting there not yet spent, we will redirect that money for important

projects like roads, bridges, dams and we will not allow it to be spent on meaningless green new scam ideas. [applause] i'm going to protect social security and medicare. democrats are going to destroy social security and medicare. elizabeth: what he said that's really interesting, governor, show the house budget committee is saying. he's saying redistrict all that government waste, trillions of dollars since 2001 we've found. you know, you could hire more cops, teachers, firemen with that. house budget says biden's own executive actions outside congress have cost fax payers -- taxpayers over $22 trillion. final word. -- $2 trillion. >> the reason donald trump is so popular with voters is because he's speaking to main street, not to wall street. he's actually talking to the people who eat at waffle house, not the people who eat at a ruth's chris. and if that's one of the reasons donald trump is going to win, because there are more of those

folks who are the common, hard working americans than there are the elites. elizabeth: you know, i could eat a pancake right now. doug collins, i want to give you the final word, doug. >> it's about reacting to people. it's about acknowledging what they're going through, about not lying to them and not telling them what they see with their own eyes is not true. donald trump is reality to them, and i think that makes it special. elizabeth: governor huckabee, congressman collins, great to have you both, gentlemen. still ahead, we have a jam-packed hour. congressman beth van duyne, congressman beth van drew, former acting i.c.e. director tom homan, from the fraternal order of police joe georgia malady and the ceo of american majority, ned ryan. also author liz peek. it is a tale of two presidents. president trump right now in rnc triumph. president biden's hopes are fading. more on the news this hour on whether biden is dropping out. he's reportedly feeling bitterly angry, betrayed as now 322

update this hour on the investigation if into the assassination if attempt on president trump that that almost took his life. hillary. >> reporter: good evening, liz. whistleblowers have come out and are alleging that the majority of former president trump's security detail was not actually secret service at the butler, pennsylvania, rally. senator josh hawley says that whistleblowers with direct knowledge of the event told him that the majority of trump's detail was actually with dhs' hsi unit, the homeland security investigations unit, who he says were unfamiliar with standard protocols at these vents like the secret service would be. hawley saying, quote, whistleblowers tell me most of trump's security detail last saturday were not even secret service. dhs assigned unprepared and inexperienced personnel. in a letter to dhs secretary alejandro mayorkas, hawley saw is whistle blowers allege, quote, the july 13th rally was

considered to be a loose security event. detection k-9s were not used to detect threats in the usual manner, individuals without proper designations were able to gain access to backstage areas, and department personnel did the not appropriately police the security bumper around the program. we are learning new details about the shooter. fbi officials briefing lawmakers told them thomas crooks had three encrypted overseas accounts, and officials are trying to gain access to learn more about a them. >> what we know, and this was on the briefing we just received, he had three encrypted overseas accounts the finish bi is trying to get into -- >> what do you mean by overseas accounts? >> we know they were based in servers overseas, and so you've got to work over there with the fbily liaisons overseas to start getting into them. >> reporter, and liz, the secret service are director will get a chance to face lawmakers and answer their questions on monday. she will be appearing before the

house oversight committee. liz? elizabeth: thank you so much, hillary vaughn. always great journalism from you. let's bring in former acting i.c.e. director, former law enforcement officer tom homan. so, tom, you just heard hillary's report. now we've got the first rally with president trump and his running mate, j.d. vance, tomorrow in michigan, and secret service is asking local law enforcement for additional help. i think that's pretty much routine. the rally's going to be the indoors. what do you think of what's going on? >> well, what concerns me is i just heard on your show, this is the first time i've heard it, that hsi, homeland security investigation, was a part of the security team. now, i ran -- hsi is part of i.c.e. hsi agents had assisted in the past for security, but they're not trained to do personal attention. so if they were actually there doing personal protection if, that's a problem. hay don't have the training secret service does, so that needs to be fully investigated, because i just heard that for the first time on your show.

that's one concern. look, i've been worried about the president for the last three years. i'm around him a lot. i'm i've been to the mar-a-lago many times and in new york. i think his security needs to be up. he isn't a normal ex-president. he's very controversial. he's leading in the polls. and he needs as much protection as secret service can give them, and -- him, and they're not doing it. again, having -- secret service needs to be the primary focus on personal protection. you can get other agencies to guard a fans or a manhole cover, but when it comes to personal protection, that is hundreds and hundreds of hours of training that secret service goes through. that should be secret service agents only. elizabeth: you know, so it cost a fire chief's life. we're going to show the long line of 5090 to fire trucks -- 500 fire trucks in the funeral procession today for firefighter corey comperatore. he was killed at the trumpal rally.

so the security lapses that got trump nearly aa saws may noted, the gunman was a person of interest a little more than an hour before he fired the shot. trump was allowed onto the stage 10 minutes after the hunt for the shooter began. let's show the timeline. he actually reportedly was at the rally site a week ahead of time. the timeline is terrifying. the gunman was scoping out the rally site a week priemplet he was there early on the morning of the shooting, then came back sometime in the early 5 p.m. hour. and then, you know, they were basically saying, hey, he's a person of interest. but why was the president allowed on the rally stage? >> look, this is the most inept -- every day we learn more and more and more. this is -- i've never seen anything like it. secret service is better than this. somebody needs to be held accountable. what concerns me, the director was refusing to answer questions. she should have had a news conference that same day. she should have a news conference every day letting us know what's happening rather than hearing from a hundred

different media stations. i will say this, the men on the stage, the men that rushed the president, i know those guys on a first name basis. the first bullet they were up those stair, across the stage in the matter of two seconds covering the president. brave men, heroes. they did the right thing. the problem is whoever managed the overall security apparatus of that event failed. and they need to be held responsible. you know, the fireman died protecting his family, he shouldn't have died. there should have been no one on the roof with a rifle that a close to the president. so what i'm really hoping for is the congressional oversight does a deep-down investigation. don't let the fbi or secret service do it. now i'm hearing dhs inspector general's going to do it. no. this needs to be an outside investigation -- elizabeth: who? so should it be -- wait. should it be -- was there's a lot -- let me back up. should there be a separate commission, a task force? it sounds like you don't trust anybody to do it right, in a clean way with integrity because people are not trusting at all

of what's gone on inside. i mean, yeah, secret service, those guys would take a bullet. they're so brave. they've got a lot of integrity. but it seems like people don't understand why there were so many security lapses. i've got to go through more news, tom. the gunman reportedly searched on the internet for information about the arrest of the michigan mass shooter whose parents were just sentenced to jail. he killed four in that high school shooting in oxford, michigan, like in 202211. he visited web sites for how to build explosives, he had two cell phones, used three encrypted accounts overseas to communicate. internet searches for both trump and president biden found on the phone. so you're saying that every time trump has a rally, everybody's hair should have been on fire for years because of his high profile and who he is. >> absolutely. i mean, i'm with him a lot. i've been on that stage with him, you know? the president did the right thing, getting down behind the podium because there's certain protective features behind the

podium. the secret service agents on the stage did a tremendous job. but the overall security apparatus, who's planning that event, has failed. and i'll tell you something about the shooter, he's all over the place. he looked at stuff on biden and trump, i think this kid wanted to be famous. he wanted to be a shooter. he took the first opportunity, had a big crowd to make the news. i don't think this was a big, mass conspiracy. i just think it's a failure with of the utmost -- i've never seen anything like this. i'm shocked. every day a new fact comes out how bad this security is. the director of secret service should be fired. not resign, fired for her failure. and anybody else who planned that event needs to be fired. elizabeth: tom homan, appreciate you. thank you so much. good to see you. okay, still ahead, congresswoman beth van duyne from house transportation. we've got this war of words heating up between president trump, he says fire uaw chief shawn fein for, quote, failing

u.s. autoworkers for going along with biden's ev mandates that's going to destroy jobs. the uaw chief not happy about that. trump says he will immediately stop, quote, biden's disastrous ev mandates if he gets reelected. and we also have congressman jeff van drew from house judiciary. it is a tale of two presidents. more polls show president trump and rnc triumphed this week, biden's 2024 hopes continue to fade. and a furious biden reportedly feeling betrayed by the growing number of democrats, now at 33, demanding he drop out. we're taking it on on "the evening edit." stay right there. ♪ ♪ we've always been competitive. yeah... one of us always had to be first.

boston globe from democrat congressman seth moulton saying biden did not seem to recognize him at that gathering in normandy for the 80 toth anniversary of d-day, but biden just put out a statement he will campaign next week, and now they're talking also behind the scenes, democrats are talking about a mini primary contest putting up multiple democrats to replace him. what are you hearing? what's going on? >> well, they are in turmoil, there's no doubt about it. i mean, you know what's really sad about this though, liz in if they didn't have the debate, if that debate hadn't happened, they would just be moving along the way they always did. this is not new, liz, and you know it. for folks that have been following this, he has been mumbling, he's been falling asleep at meetings, he's been getting confused. he has had issues for years now, and simply because 50 million people saw in the debate, then they became concerned because it affected the polls which they

believe are going to be the bellwether with of how the election's going to go. and these folk it is are smart and they're focused. they do not want to lose. so the one thing i will say to my republican and independent friends out there and conservative democrats, don't be high phiing. don't think this is over -- fiving. we don't know where this is going to go yet, and they can -- they're going to to try to pull him out or pull somebody out to really make this election still turn around and be for democrats. we have to be strong and work hard. elizabeth: okay. so that message is heard loud and clear. you know, so how much of this is the about biden's pride and ego? because reports are coming in that he's feeling angry, betrayed, disrespected by his own top democrats. he's surrounded by, we're hearing, a stunningly small circle of insiders. there's concerns that the tight circle around him is stopping the bad news. so -- and then also nbc's reporting biden is talking about demanding any exit plan that's,

quote, worthy of the more than five decades he's been in d.c. if. >> well, of course he's angry, because he has been this way all along. and all of a sudden now a whole lot of people are turning on him in his party. so he feels bepray -- betrayed. that doesn't surprise me at all because he has had these problems, but they were willing to work with him. it was a group of people around him, he almost had an oligarchy of people that were getting the job done for him, who were really producing the product. it was never him, in my opinion, over the last couple of years especially. so now, you know, part of what i believe is the organic problem that he has, and i say this with respect, is that these folks do get angry. and so he's angry, he's hurt, and he's going to fight a little bit. this isn't over yet. elizabeth: it's not over. >> it's good -- exactly. and if people should know -- elizabeth: so he may stay in because the far left including aoc and bernie sanders are backing him, and that's the

turnout, but then he's got in the far left you know, the boycott vote because of what is going on in gaza. so the other thing too, final word, should democrats who attacked special counsel robert hur, should they apologize to him? because he said, you know, biden is an elderly man with memory problems in this classified documents report, but those same democrats attacked hur, and now they're calling on biden to drop out for specifically what robert hur said. at what point will they apologize? are they going to do that? the blatant bullying false 450ds keep getting swept under the the rug. >> of course they will not apologize. of course they should apologize. he's had this problem all along. hur accurately portrayed thed it, and that's why we wanted to get the video, actually, of what went on. you know what i believe? i believe in that interview if you actually hear the video, it's much worse than the text and that he was rambling and that he couldn't keep track of his ideas and his thoughts.

and so we know that this problem exists, and we know that hur reported on it, and they went after hur because they were still going to ride that horse, joe bide, to what they believed -- joe biden, to what they believed would be a victory in november. believe they're -- i believe they're wrong. elizabeth: congressman van drew, thank you so much. let's welcome congressman beth van duyne. it's great to see you again. so what do you make of this news that president trump last night at9 the rnc said the uaw should fire its chief, shaun shawn fein, for going along with biden's electric car mandates that he says will destroy thousands of autoworker jobs? >> i think trump proved last night that he's on the side of the american worker. if you think about what destruction that the biden policies have had, i mean, completely destroying american energy independence. and if you want to talk about interest rates now, 20% inflation and what caused them, you can look at exactly that and

the energy policies and the green new deal policies. and the fact is, is that the uaw leadership is interested in one thing very similar to democrats, maintaining control. this has nothing to do with supporting their workers, this has nothing to do with making america great again. this has everything to do with them making their leadership positions even stronger. they're already so connected to democratic leadership, they don't know what to do. so i think what overseen right now is trump fighting for the mesh workers, saying it very clearly and the leadership of the union's not liking it. elizabeth: let's take a second and watch president trump talk about getting rid of biden's electric car mandates. they require less manpower to make versus gas cars. china's.com admitting the electric car market. if you want an electric car, okay, but don't take away gas cars. that's what bind wants to do. watch. >> i will end the electric vehicle mandate on day one, thereby saving the u.s. auto

industry from complete obliteration which is happening right now and saving u.s. customers thousands and thousands of dollars per car. large factories are being built across the border in mexico, and they're being built by china to make cars and to sell them into our country no tax, no anything. the united autoworkers ought to be ashamed for allowing this to happen. and the leader of the unitedd immediately, and every single autoworker, union and non-union, should be voting for donald trump because we're going to bring back car manufacturing, and and we're going to bring it back fast. [applause] and if they don't agree with us, we'll put a tariff of aapproximately 100-200% on each car, and they will be unsellable in the united states. elizabeth: unsell is,. congresswoman, you look at automotive, ev sales are just 8%

of total car sales up just less than a point. eight of the -- >> people don't want them. elizabeth: yeah, they don't want them. eight of the top ten selling cars and trucks are gas-powered. go ahead. >> they're trying to to force them down people's throats, and they can't afford them. trump is absolutely right, all those policies were doing was empowering china and hurting american businesses. and hen you start looking at some of our trade policies like the usmca where he's exactly right again, manufacturing jobs are going to mexico because those deals that were constructed after the trump administration are not being enforced under the biden administration. so you're seeing manufacturing, manufacturing jobs all going to places like mexico that are curtailing the tariffs that we have in place with china because china's taking advantage of it, and the biden administration is letting them do it. the green new deals have not been great for america, they've been great for countries across the seas, especially china. and i think when we get the senate back, the house back and

the white house back, we're going to bring back american energy independence, and we're going to bring back manufacturing jobs back to the states. elizabeth: congresswoman van duyne, a pleasure having you on. thanks for joining us. still ahead, fox news contributor liz peek along with american majority ceo ned ryan. we've got a hot "evening edit" debate panel. so excited. okay, did this message finally land? former president trump telling democrats, stop the political warfare attacks, stop manipulating the justice system to attack the him and stay in power. instead, unify america. but first, let's check in with my buddies tammy bruce, jason chaffetz in for dagen and sean. tammy: hey, liz, thank you very much. great to be filling in for dagen. tonight, tudor dixon, lots of stuff going on and stacy washington, host of stacy on the right, the tudor dixon podcast for tudor: she's coming up.

[laughs] a home router should never be a home wrecker. oo this is a good book title. elizabeth: well, look who's here for "the evening edit" debate

panel, liz peek and the ceo of american majority, he's ned ryan. okay, let's sit tight. let's first listen to president trump last night saying to democrat, stop the lawfare attacks, stop using the courts to go after me, unite america instead. watch this. >> they went through so much trouble. they got subpoenaed more than any people probably in the history of the united states. every week they get another subpoena from the democrats, crazy nancy pelosi. the whole thing just boom, boom, boom. [background sounds] they've got to stop that because they're destroying our country. we have to work on making america great again, not on beating people. if democrats want to unify our country, they should drop these partisan witch hunts, which i have been going through for approximately eight years. the democrat party should immediately stop weaponizing the justice system and labeling their political opponent --

[applause] as an enemy of democracy. elizabeth: what do you think, liz? if. >> yeah, i think he's absolutely right. i mean, all this talk about donald trump being a threat to democracy, liz, we've said it over and over again, we only see one party that actually is going after a political opponent and trying to to put him in jail. so, yes, the lawfare, i think actually, has boomeranged bigtime for democrats. nobody thinks these trials that he's been put through are nonpartisan. the charges have been ridiculous, and i am so happy that the documents case got dropped because joe biden had a documents problem too. and i think the entire country was going to be incensed if one candidate was charged with manipulating and using documents in an untoward fashion and the other wasn't? the whole thing has been, i think, really undermining of our confidence in our government. elizabeth: yeah. and people don't want the feel any more cynical, right, ned? >> right. elizabeth: what's your take on what's going on, ned?

>> well, i don't think they're going to listen to donald trump. i don't think they're going to back away from their lawfare. but i would agree with liz that it's backfired on them. the more they do it, the more donald trump surges politically, surges politically in the polls, in fund raising. but they're not going to abandon it. it's one of the main things they've been doing to try and get biden reelected, so they're not going to step away from it. but it's been extremely beneficial to donald trump, as brutal as it has been for him not only personally, but also just the legal bills that have built up. but last night, to me, liz, was one of the greatest political comebacks ever despite all the a lawfare, despite everything that has been thrown against donald trump since he left office. where he was in february of 2021 when i was sitting with him at a mar-a-lago, no republican wanted him to run again. they wanted america first to go away. last night, trump triumphant. elizabeth: yeah. so what ned just said. you know, liz, we've talked

about it. ned, too, we've talked the about it as well. you know, they wanted to impeach him before he sat down in the to oval office in 2017. 84 targets including stormy daniels and his tax returns and his businesses, and that was 2018 led by nancy pelosi and 14 house democrat-led committees. you know, the back story needs to be told here because this is u.s. history, liz. biden also has had two brain aneurysms. we've talked to doctors about that. that's a traumatic brain injury. that happened in 1988, liz. that alone triggers angry outbursts. that's the context of what america has been living with with this president. >> liz, what you come away with is this feeling that the democratic party and joe biden and the people surrounding him have is not only waged war -- have not only waged war on donald trump in every possible way, but they've also lied to

the american people in the most profound way. this is so undermining of our confidence, yes, in our democracy. and certainly in the democratic party and in our elected officials. because it isn't just joe biden. there are a9 lot of people around a him who also a knew exactly what was going on with him. they knew he was incapable. they knew he wasn't able to run again for four more years. but until it threatened their party, until people began to think they were going to lose, they were perfectly okay with joe biden being president even if he can't really do the job. that is so unpatriotic and so un-american, and that's what we have with one of our major political parties. i mean, this is just absolutely unacceptable. and i hope voters in november come together as they did in this convention, republicans, and basically say, no, we've had enough. you are out. elizabeth: yeah. so what liz just said. is this an epic, historic

coffer-up on the level of nixon? final word, ned -- cover-up. >> no, absolutely. it is a massive conspiracy of silence and overt lies that, as liz said, was not really about the health of this country, was not for the good of the country, it's for them trying to hold on to political power. i think it really does highlight the lack of character and the lack of ethics not only among the democratic party, but those in the media who i call corporate propagandists. it's not about the truth, it's about how do we hold on to power. and they've been lying to the people s and now that lie's been exposed, and i hope the american people punish them on november 5th. elizabeth: thanks for joining us this friday night. still ahead, from the from if terrible order of police, the national vice president, the one and only joegy malady. he's been fighting the good fight to keep everybody safe. this dangerous story out of florida, police discover a drug reportedly 50 times stronger than fentanyl. also this, the justice department, the government just brought a gigantic lawsuit against the largest housing

liz: welcome back let's welcomel order of police joe kamali, we know you're all about keeping the viewers safe, what you make of the new development in the border crisis in florida, palm beach county police found a powerfully new dangerous drug that only been found in philly, it's an synthetic opioid called iso, 50 times stronger than fentanyl, these opioids in synthetic opioids can make a crisis look like the good old days. >> fentanyl it was and continues to be an epidemic in our country and it's sickening that the administration is not taken more seriously. we are talking about this being the leading cause of death for americans age 18 - 49 to the tune of 100,000 americans being killed every year, the new dose is only going to exacerbate the

problem. we know where this poison is coming from, it's pouring over our southern border because we have an open border and everyone can come across t anytime they choose. everybody in the budget managed ration of outer border to interior is implicit in the 100,000 gas per year and we know we have a problem and we know how to fix it but we don't have leadership to have a spying to do it. liz: the other thing the problem is iso the drug mimics narcotics by an gemlike oxycontin percocet, the dea has been warning it's mixed into other drugs, that means poisoning and killing of unsuspecting victims. >> is absolutely horrific and we will only see more victims who believe they're taking something else but instead they get ghost with the harder does that their body cannot handle and we see on the streets every day in our officers have to narcan people to save advice from overdoses, we have to put into the opioid epidemic in this country and

divided administration needs to step up. liz: it is called southwest key programs, the obligation is horrific sexual assault allegations against migrant children, subject to severe pervasive sexual harassment and more since 2015 at least. >> this is absolutely horrific, anybody associated with it should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law, it's just another black eye for the biden administration on immigration because it released the oversight program over this group and i would like to know who made that decision because there ass should be fired, when

you go to the polls in november whether biden kamala harris, newsom or fill-in the blank wherever they could get the run you have to ask yourself can we continue to have an open border in the answer is no, we need to secure our borders, prioritize american citizens and prioritize those in the country legally and trying to compute the right way, the legal way, that's how we can get our country back on track. liz: do you think is going to happen. >> we will certainly see but if i was betting that i would be betty jean president trump to win in a landslide. liz: joe kamali, thank you much, good to see you. i am elizabeth macdonald, you been watching "the evening edit" on fox business. that does it for as we hope you enjoy this week. more news coming up next week, stay with us 5 - 6, time for "the bottom line" let's take it to tammy and jason. >> good evenin
