6:00 am
when i think of the veteran out there that needs to refi his home, he may want to purchase and we can help them and provide that financial solution for them and their families. it's a great, rewarding feeling. everybody in the company, they have that deference and that respect and that love for the veteran that makes this company so unique. >> ainsley: live today on fox 10:00 a.m. a hearing on biden's afghanistan withdrawal. 11:30 thousands march for israel in d.c. celebrations in the u.k. for prince charles. state within yourself.
6:01 am
[shouting] >> their agenda is not oh free palestinian but wipe out israel and the jewish people. >> we've seen jewish students attacked on campuses, literally attacked. >> it's not free speech. this is incitement for murder. >> bill: you have all watched this together with us. hate speech and violence that appears to have no end. today, however, jewish people around the world facing that since october 7th jewish americans will say enough as they gather in washington for the march for israel. a big part of our coverage today and throughout the afternoon. good morning, i'm bill hemmer. >> dana: good morning, happy birthday. it is bill's birthday. i'm dana perino. this is "america's newsroom." one of the things there will be a lot of -- some diversity not just jewish americans and christian community coming out
6:02 am
strongly today. i have friends going from connecticut a ranged buses. they didn't show up. they got in the car pools and heading down there now. we'll have updates all day. the march for israel scheduled for 1:00 p.m. eastern on the national mall. there is a crowd expected of 100,000. d.c. is calling in the national guard to help with security. mark meredith live in washington with more. hi, mark. >> good morning. you are right. we expect a very large crowd. tens of thousands of people expected to be on the national mall. rehearsals are already underway. the real program not starting until early this afternoon. perhaps most notable how quickly the event has come together. an event of this size takes months if not years of planning. given the developments since early october we've seen the jewish american community come together to counter some of the pro palestinian protests in major cities. places like new york, chicago, as well as los angeles. what we can expect in d.c. today
6:03 am
you and bill mentioned off the top. heavy security. we have seen some of the roadblocks on the national mall. this area would be packed the tourists people running around. instead it's all locked down. people have to go through security to get there. the people here will be sitting or standing. marching up to the hill. listening to speakers, house speaker as well as democratic congressional leadership on stage today as well. the message we expect to hear is the support for israel that these jewish americans want to hear going forward not only from leaders out of washington but from feel -- fellow americans. we don't know if we'll see counter protests on the ground in washington. so far i haven't seen any. it was quiet this morning. just people guitarists and
6:04 am
security. in terms of other mass demonstrations unclear at this point. whether or not we see any other additional members of the biden administration come out. a few notable names out of washington and names from the hill. make no mistake this showing dana and bill how the jewish american community feels about what is happening in israel and what they want to do to combat it going forward here in this country. >> dana: thank you, mark meredith in d.c. >> bill: want to bring in one of the march for israel organizers with us now. we want to give you a chance to explain what it's all about. i want to read the comment from instagram. palestinian youth movement. that's their handle. we urge individuals not to attend the rally in any capacity. do not fall into their trap to paint this as two sides. do not allow them to use you to inflate their numbers for their pitiful rally. i don't know if you choose to comment on that. we hope it goes peaceful today.
6:05 am
what do you say, sir, go? >> happy birthday, bill. secondly i would say this may be one of the only times i agree with the palestinian youth movement. they should stay home and stay away from our event. we expect there to be tens of thousands of people coming from all over america. jews and non-jews alike coming from every corner. we have 1600 buses alone that are coming into washington as well as tens of thousands of people flying and taking trains. they are coming to push the message that america stands with israel. america stands against anti-semitism. america demands the immediate return of our hostages. >> dana: one of the things that you have is nikki haley in the "new york post" saying d.c. march for israel flags key truth. the west faces a moral test. she says america, europe and every civilized nation must give israel everything it needs to eliminate hamas. it has promised never to rest in
6:06 am
the slaughter of jews >> many people in israel will be watching. i have been there and while we were there the comfort and give hugs to israelis the fact that the people of israel saw that america and american jews are standing with them gave them great comfort and it is a hug back to us. i know that many, many in israel will be watching and they will be i'm sure comforted by the fact there will be tens of thousands of americans, jews, christians, and everybody in between who will be marching in support of israel. marching in support of the freeing of the hostages and will be marching to push back on the tsunami of anti-semitism that has he represented in the u.s. and across the world. >> bill: it exposed a deep vein in american society and around the world. what has it been like personally to attack your faith or your
6:07 am
country? >> it's been very difficult for jews around the world. on one hand, our homeland has been attacked. 1200 jews murdered by the hamas terrorist army. hundreds captured. soldiers who are fighting as we speak now in gaza. that in and of itself tugs at the hearts of american jews. you add to that the insult that people who we thought were our allies and stood with us turning their backs on us in a minute. in a situation that's not a situation like a lot of issues are in the middle east where i say six, you say a half dozen. i say the glass is half full, you say the glass is half empty. if you look at the murder by hamas on october 7th there is no equivocation, no right and maybe right. it is a situation where one side is right, one side is wrong. to have average americans stand up and be on the wrong side of that is incredibly distressing. but we're very taken back and
6:08 am
relieved by the fact that america supports us. the congress supports us incredibly well. senate passed a resolution unanimously. the house of representatives with nine no votes voted to support israel against hamas. we put out polling today that shows the conference of presidents along with the jewish federation of north america shows that eight out of ten americans support israel's right and obligation to defend its citizens against the hamas terrorist army. even though we see what we see at harvard and grand central station you'll see today tens of thousands of americans standing up and saying we stand with israel. we stand to free the hostages and stand against anti-semitism. it's an amazing message for america and the people of israel. >> dana: you were able to get the speaker of the house and senate majority leader to come today. president biden is giving a speech on climate change before he meets with the apec summit and xi.
6:09 am
did you invite president biden or vice president kamala harris to attend today? >> we did invite him. he is on his way to san francisco for the apec conference and so he was not available. we did push. we tried to get him to come. the schedule was such with the meeting with president xi tomorrow and travel at the white house was not able to bring the presidents. we do have ambassador the special envoy for combating anti-semitism who will be addressing us on behalf of the administration. >> bill: good luck to you. one of the organizers. expect up to 100,000. you want to keep it peaceful. your friends driving down from connecticut and a lot of people from new york taking the train to washington. you might be able to contain that on the national mall. it's anybody's guess as to what happens on various street corners or in the trains or vehicles? see how it goes. they have a beautiful day weather-wise. >> dana: israel released new video inside hamas terror tunnels. the passage you see here is
6:10 am
connected to a hospital that hamas used as a base. the idf found hand grenades, explosive vests and rockets all stored in the basement of that hospital. it's part of hamas's strategy. it is prompting calls for israel to back down including from president biden. >> president biden: it's my hope and expectation that there will be less intrusive action of the hospital. there is an effort to take this pause to deal with release of price -- hospital must be protected. >> bill: trey yengst brought news a moment ago. alex hogan reports live near the border with lebanon now. hello to you. >> hi. moments ago we saw continued attacks coming this way from lebanon. the border is the hilltop behind
6:11 am
me. one strike landing on the hillside. much guns as well as tanks. the fight continues in the southern part of the country, idf released this footage last night of what appears to be an area where hostages could have been held in the basement of a gaza hospital. the idf says it is launching on investigation to figure that out. it comes after hamas announced it would negotiate for the release of 70 hostages, 70 women and children for this five-day cease-fire. if it's true it would line up with the idf claim that some hamas forces are fleeing south. it took over the parliamentary building in gaza city and raised the israeli flag. a main focal point has been around the hospital. it is allowing patients to leave the hospital but the hospital says too dangerous to move israel is sendsing in
6:12 am
incubateers. whos workers are questioning how those infants would safely get to another facility. with major pro-palestinian protests around the world demanding a cease-fire isly foreign minister said the military likely has 2 to 3 weeks left of fighting before it needs to give up into international pressure. those comments are not landing well in israel. he quickly retracted that statement. fox talked with an aid to the former prime minister about why she thinks an immediate cease-fire won't work. >> be very blunt, nobody wants to rule gaza as long as hamas is still standing on its feet. >> we've seen today, the rains have stopped now but it has been a downpour expected to create massive flooding that will be a complication for israeli forces in northern gaza but also a major problem for the more than million people living in shelters or on the streets when
6:13 am
there is such a high risk of water borne diseases. >> bill: nice to see you again, alex. washington, d.c. d.c. bracing for a massive crowd at the march for israel. tens of thousands expected to rally within hours. we'll watch that unfold right here. plus there is this. >> the president called you a word that because we're live in london i'm not allowed to say on television. >> dana: president biden -- how the former obama advisor is responding. >> bill: the first photo of the cocaine found at the white house last summer. but the mystery over who left it there still not resolved. >> i am asking again once and for all whether or not the cocaine belonged to the biden family. >> they were not here friday,
6:14 am
saturday, sunday or monday. they came back on tuesday. so to ask that question is actually incredibly irresponsible. to pray with me real quick . in the name of the father and son, holy spirit. amen. lord jesus, come to us now. help us to surrender ourselves completely to you. help us to listen to your voice. even when we're distracted or tired, we pray this in the name of the father and of the son of the holy spirit. amen. thank you so much. i just want to encourage you that if you want to join me in more prayer, check out hallow it's the number one prayer app in the world.

6:18 am
6:19 am
>> dana: photos of cocaine found at the white house last july being revealed for the first time. daily mail newspaper published
6:20 am
the photos after filing a freedom of information request. the cocaine was found in a storage locker in the west wing and led to a brief evacuation of the white house. secret service never found who the cocaine belonged to. hum. >> license, i understand it was irritated because i raised concerns that many, many democrats had. again, you know, my feeling is either get out or get going. the stakes are so high. this isn't mitt romney for john mccain or anybody else on the other side. this is trump. >> bill: the tit-for-tat continues. president biden used colorful language to talk about him. karl rove is with us now. good morning to you. remember that axelrod was critical two weeks ago when the battleground states came out, all that polling showing trump leading in i think five of the six. but axelrod is not alone, right? you have jonathan martin,
6:21 am
"politico", as one shrewd democrat argues the party enters 2024 with advantage on message, money, organization and brand. the messenger is the problem. he should try to fix that. what would be your message to martin and axelrod and to biden? >> well look, i agree with david axelrod. when you have over seven out of every ten americans saying he is too old, including 69% of democrats, and when you have a nearly 2/3 of the country saying he lacks the stamina and mental acuity to be effective as president, you have a real problem. now i do have a minor disagreement with david axelrod. he suggests that the answer is to get going. that is to say the duplicate what barack obama did in mitt romney starting in 2012. it was to start going after mitt romney painting him as heartless
6:22 am
who had an elevator in his garage for his cars. they were unending starting in the early part of 2012 going after mitt romney. that was effective. it took bad numbers for barack obama in 2011 and turned it into victory in november of 2012. my disagreement is that barack obama was young, effective, he was -- he could string together two sentences. everybody looked at him and said he is not too old. he is young and energetic and had political skills far better than joe biden's today. joe biden is not going to get younger, he won't be more fluent, and he is not going to look like a strong leader. as a result, i think going on the offense getting going as david says, nice try. i don't know if it will work when the messenger is so flawed as joe biden is in this situation. remember, in that poll that showed the battleground states losing -- biden losing to trump in 5 of 6 battleground states? it also showed a generic unnamed
6:23 am
democrat handily beating donald trump in all six of those states. >> dana: since you know both men i want to ask you about jim messina. he said he is not wore eft at all. he thinks david axelrod is 1,000 percent wrong and thinks joe biden record of accomplishment is great. they have work to do but when it comes down to it america will choose to reelect joe biden. between those two, they are diametrically opposed. >> both men are personal friends of mine and but choosing between messina and axelrod, i would go to axelrod on they have a real problem. talking past it is not going to help. there is a real fundamental problem. i would have to hear what will they do to make him look more energetic and make him look for able, more on top of it?
6:24 am
what will they do to show the stamina and mental acute tee to be president? i don't see the answers that give me any confidence. they say we go thermo nuclear. it will give us the most ugly presidential campaign in history. it will be met with like response by donald trump and we are likely to see turnout decline next year. we have been in a period since 1996 other than 2012 turnout has been rising election after election. i think it is likely to go down if these two men are the nominees of the party and take no prisoners death con three approach to american politics. >> bill: he will campaign from the rose garden in 2020. he campaigned from business basement. it worked. tim scott is out. the desantis team sending three
6:25 am
top aides to iowa. he will get to all 99 counties this fall. making a big deal out of that. then you have the recent polling in iowa trump at 43, haley and desantis tied at 16 apiece. the caucus happens on january 15th, karl. maybe that scrambles everything but do you think scott getting out, do you give an edge to a desantis or a haley right now battling for what appears to be a silver medal? >> well, the polling suggests that the second choice of tim scott supporters is nikki haley, but given the fact he was polling in low digits in both iowa, new hampshire and nationwide it is not much of a boost coming from that. we have evidence that she has moved because of the debates and the third debate i think everybody agreed she did really well. in large part because vivek ramaswamy kept coming after her and completely illogical in
6:26 am
inappropriate ways. politics a punch hurts sometimes. but a counter punch can work more effectively. she was at six points in iowa in august. in october she was tied at 16. who declined from 19 to 16. she is probably a few points ahead of desantis today. the question will be donald trump was flat in the iowa poll. 42 in august. 43 in october. 29 of his 43 points said my mind is made up and voting for him. 14 points of donald trump support in iowa said i'm for him today but open to voting for others. we have plenty of time for weird things to happen in iowa. then they the end to be followed by stranger things in the state of new hampshire. >> bill: that's a fact. thank you. >> dana: karl is reliving his past. >> i'm reliving, 19 points, yes. >> dana: new hampshire indeed. >> john mccain, new hampshire.
6:27 am
>> dana: stream a new episode of perino on politics now. i talked to josh holmes about joe manchin's decision to retire from the senate. >> he is a charming guy and the reason he has gotten as far as he has in west virginia. at some point in a presidential stage charm only gets you so far. you have institutional backing of a base of support and actually roll out what it is you believe. >> dana: episode available now on fox news podcast.com. >> cartels recruiting more teenagers doing their dirty work for them. how will people make their voice heard together today an pro-israel? >> when you say from the river to the sea, many people are chanting in every city in america, that means that you want to get rid of israel.

ah, these bills are crazy. she has no idea she's sitting on a goldmine. well she doesn't know that if she owns a life insurance policy of $100,000 or more she can sell all or part of it to coventry for cash. even a term policy. even a term policy? even a term policy! find out if you're sitting on a goldmine. call coventry direct today at the number on your screen, or
6:33 am
visit coventrydirect.com. >> bill: now from washington, d.c. what an extraordinary day they have today. they deserve it. let the sun shine in on the national mall. upwards of 100,000 expressed their support for israel and their fight back against the anti-semitism that has run deeper in this country than a lot of people imagined and perhaps around the world as well. we'll watch that march get underway momentarily in washington, d.c. >> dana: patrol agents at the southern border tell us cartels are luring teens to help them smuggle migrants and illegal drugs into the country. they are using social media as recruitment boards. casey stiegel live in dallas with more. hi, casey. >> good morning. authorities tell us they continue to see an uptick in these young criminals who essentially answer the ads
6:34 am
placed on various social media platforms like facebook and tiktok and then ultimately get roped in by the cartels to do their dirty work. let's get you right to new video shot by fox news of a four-day operation conducted by texas dps and u.s. border patrol specifically targeting what are known as brush guides. those who help smuggle migrants across the rio grande river, then be picked up and further driven into the country's interior. in this case, dps arrested 13 of these brush guides and four of them were juveniles all from mexico and they have all been charged with state crimes for smuggling. the goal is to avoid and prevent high-speed chases like this one last week when troopers pursued a 15-year-old driver who, watch this, blows past a border patrol checkpoint at a high rate of
6:35 am
speed allowing multiple migrants to jump out of the car and flee. troopers used stop sticks and brought the vehicle to a halt. the teen driver and five migrants arrested. in california illegal activity has been picking up in hot springs which is southeastern san diego county where a makeshift campsite has been established right there on the u.s. side in the desert as hundreds of migrants camp out waiting to be processed by border patrol agents. video has shown migrants camping out in tents at that location, sitting around the camp fire. right next to the border wall. in october, thousands of migrants have been released on the streets in and around the san diego area because, once again, the system is just frankly too overwhelmed. dana. >> dana: thank you for that update. >> bill: many of these sanctuary cities unable to keep up.
6:36 am
in chicago, for example, a group of people who came out of venezuela, all the way from venezuela with hopes of a better life. they have been living on the streets and say we're going back home. one of them declaring the american dream don't exist. chicago alterman raymond lopez with me now. i saw the story and said this is whacky. how many people are we talking about? >> chicago has seen 20,000 migrants appear on our streets since august of last year. we've got nearly 3,000 living in police stations, 800 living at o'hare airport and thousands of more floating from shelter to shelter. i'm sorry they don't like our weather. sorry they feel we're not doing enough to give them shelter, clothing and everything else promised by social media, but the system works if you do it the right way. declaring asylum because you need a job isn't the right way and they are learning that reality the hard way now.
6:37 am
>> bill: our law does not offer asylum if the question is economic. the question are you hardship and being persecuted and religiously persecuted? i don't know how many coming across the border can check those boxes. as of november 11th more than 18,400 have been sent to chicago. the money illinois has spent on humanitarian aid for migrants. over 330 million. which by the way is cheap compared to new york. i will read you a quote from one of the venezuelans saying how many more months of living in the streets will it take? no more. it is better that i leave. >> again, i'm sorry they feel that way but chicago taxpayers shouldn't be on the hook for paying these bills. 330 million is just what the state of illinois is paying. the city of chicago is committed to paying $255 million this year
6:38 am
alone on top of all the other amenities and layers of government are providing including our schools. it is not sustainable. the fact of the matter is this. the federal government has failed in this moment to not only secure the border, to address asylum seekers and provide for their well-being they are putting cases six years away. >> bill: that's the point. you shouldn't have to apologize for people who aren't happy with the treatment they're getting in chicago. they made a decision to leave their homes and unfortunately they are still not happy. in the meantime the people who live in your state are paying millions if not billions of dollars eventually. you don't need to apologize. >> i think you are correct, bill. it is in my nature as a good christian to try to help people. at the end of the day it's not my problem. they are hosting the convention here in several months and allow
6:39 am
us to be the guinea pig to allow individuals to come to asylum with no report. sanctuary cities to be the magnate that sends them here but democratic states as well who have all jetsoned their sanctuary city policies and we hold steadfast to our. our voters say they have had enough and want to vote on the topic in the city and hopefully we can give them that chance. >> bill: the governor of illinois his letter to president biden in october. humanitarian crisis is overwhelming our ability to provide aid to the refugee population. the welcome that illinois is provided is not matched by support from the federal government. he is asking for more money. last comment and then we have to roll. >> you know, the sad part is i think many in my party are viewing the migrant crisis as their next covid two money grab. we have seen a lot of money come to democratic cities to cover costs of covid. $5 billion ask now we need more
6:40 am
money to cover the migrant crisis. crisis to crisis the federal government they keep asking for more money to help cover our costs. it is simply not sustainable. >> bill: i still love your town. don't take it personally. dana. >> we see the diversity of opinions as a source of strength of this department, not as a source of weakness. >> dana: matt miller responding to an email from employees. people are right now filtering onto the national mall for today's march for israel. we'll talk to our reporters at the rally coming up on "america's newsroom."
6:41 am
6:42 am
6:43 am
6:44 am
6:45 am
>> bill: 15 minutes before the hour. is reeh women on the streets rallying for the safe return of those kidnapped by hamas. 240 men, women and children are calling on women's organizations to speak out against the atrocities of october 7th. greg palkot back in london at his main post there with more on that now. >> as the war by israel against hamas in gaza intensifies with all the humanitarian problems that entail, yes, the call from those close ones near the 240 hostages taken by hamas are
6:46 am
beefing up their calls as well. some of those whose loved ones are missing are starting a five-day march today from tel aviv in israel to jerusalem saying they are doing this to further bring attention to their family members' plights echoing the hostages taken in the past. a special event marking the close to 100 hostages who are female. senior citizens, women, young ladies, teens, children, and an incredible range of people depicted in a moving video for the event calling on women's groups to do more to highlight their special needs and speaking up and active in the cause hollywood actress natalie portman. listen to her message. >> the international community to end the humanitarian disaster. multi-national humanitarian disaster and protect women, children, the elderly, all the
6:47 am
people who are suffering right now. >> a screening of that graphic 43-minute video of the october 7th hamas attack was organized by an israeli act dress. pro-palestinian activist showing up outside and reports of scuffles. finally, though, a sign of how terrible and tenuous this all is just in the last 24 hours two women thought to be alive, but thought to be held hostage, were confirmed dead. the horror continues on all sides. back to you. >> bill: everyone has a story and so many of the stories we don't have a conclusion yet. greg palkot in london. secretary of state antony blinken announcing a third round of sanctions targeting people and groups affiliated with hamas. the sanctions will also affect the palestinian islamic jihad, the second largest militant group in gaza operating out of the west bank.
6:48 am
blinken said they are working with allies to disrupt the system that gives money to hamas. he calls out iran for providing the money, the weapons and the training to both those organizations. >> dana: there is a leaked internal state department memo blasting president biden's policy on israel. the memo indicates deep divisions within the biden administration and the democratic party with ox yosemite writing some of the change echoes that of progressive activists in the u.s. former state department official and spokesperson. great to have you both here. secretary antony blinken wrote back to the department employees saying we've organized forums in d.c. to hear from you. urge manager and teams to have discussions at posts around the world to hear your feedback and ideas. we're listening. what you share is informing our policy and messages. as bill just said, morgan, the sanctions round was put in
6:49 am
place. state department is no stranger to these kind of memos. we'd get them about irrelevant rack and climate change. this one comes about israel and hamas. is this one different in your opinion? >> no. in fact, i don't think secretary blinken should encourage this behavior by having all these forums that you just discussed. there is a elected president of the united states. a senate confirmed secretary of state and those people are in charge as per the constitution for setting out the foreign policy for this administration. whether i agree with it or not or whether the foreign service offices agree with it or not, the obstinance towards and arrogance, the arrogance, dana, thinking that they can change u.s. policy and somehow they know better than the people that the american people elected and put in place or the people that were confirmed by the senate. now, there is a distinct process, that's fine. this is at least the second
6:50 am
dissent cable on israel that was leaked right away to the press. the foreign service loves to do that. and by the way, it took over two years for members of congress to read the classified afghanistan dissent cable that still has not been released to the public and i also missed the dissent cable whenever we failed to deter putin from invading ukraine. i missed the dissent cable whenever we automatically took the houthi terrorism designation off of them for nothing in exchange. only when the jewish people defend themselves do you have dissent cables within the state department. i think they need to understand the president sets the policy, not a bunch of spoiled toddlers throwing a fit. >> dana: listen to matt miller. he addressed the memo from the state department. >> you look at the protests that have happened around the country. the protests that will happen in washington this week. you look at the very strong
6:51 am
feelings that this issue has aroused in the united states and around the world. of course that extends to inside the state department where people have very strong opinions. i won't comment on any dissent. he has spoken in the past about how he welcomes the dissent channels and think it's valuable. >> dana: do you think that will stem the frustration or the memos, david >> i agree with mr. miller. i respect morgan, we're friends and usually agree with her but i don't agree with her. the dissenting cable process is something we should be proud of. it allows administration officials to register their dissent and reasons why they disagree with a certain u.s. policy. there aren't many countries around the world where officials in a government can, through a formal process, demonstrate to their leader that they disagree with the policy and that it's all okay and they won't be punished or retaliated against. i don't necessarily agree with
6:52 am
