>> carley: it certainly is. you are the perfect person to talk about this. you have two young children, who i'm sure eat a lot of groceries and you own a business that you run on the weekend. mini-donut food truck. what creases are you seeing there? >> we have seen some increases, particularly with our cake mix. it has gone up 28% since we started in 2021. >> carley: have you thought about how much money you would be saving if prices stayed at the 2021 rates and what you would be doing with that money? >> oh, sure, we wish that the prices would have stayed the same, unfortunately, due to more demand, there are more businesses entering the market after covid and more supply chain issues we're dealing with. we've had disruption in product and we've had to wonder if we
2:17 am
will be able to operate and make it to this weekend with the product we have. >> carley: you are thinking because prices are so high, you might go out of business as a result of that? >> no, we've been fortunate, we have a supportive communities, as well as state of west virginia is small business friendly. we do not fear that. it is not our sole source of income, but i know that is a fear for many small businesses. >> carley: we were showing pictures of your mini-doughnuts. where can people go to fine your food truck? >> we sell gift cards, as well, find us on facebook and instagram under drifter doughnuts. the doughnuts look delicious. >> todd: last week the cookie

2:22 am
or have multiple endocrine neoplasia syndrome type 2, or if allergic to it. stop rybelsus® and get medical help right away if you get a lump or swelling in your neck, severe stomach pain, or an allergic reaction. serious side effects may include pancreatitis. gallbladder problems may occur. tell your provider about vision problems or changes. taking rybelsus® with a sulfonylurea or insulin increases low blood sugar risk. side effects like nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea may lead to dehydration, which may worsen kidney problems. need to get your a1c down? you may pay as little as $10 per prescription. >> carley: listen to this awful story. a man is behind bars after sucker punching a grandfather who was pushing a stroller with his infant grandson inside. here he is approaching the pair and strikes the man so hard he falls over, taking the stroller down with him. the attack was unprovoked.
2:23 am
he walks to the car and drives away. they are expected to make a full recovery. the man was already wanted for a separate attack on a child. >> todd: that is kardashian country. new york city has decided to slash the fire department budget, forcing the department to cut 20% of staff. many are removing the fifth man. >> fifth firefighters are crucial because they help take the strain and stress off fellow engine crews and thereby reducing the likelihood of injury. in a fire department that is already understaffed by 900 firefighters this guarantees there will be rise in injury and corresponding lack of manpower
2:24 am
because of it. >>-- andrew joins me now. we got context from the sound bite. what is the fifth man and why is it so important? >> there are 193 engine companies in new york city. 20 in the busiest area are firefighter engine, engine that takes the hose into the fire and puts the fire out. studies show having that additional firefighter on the line can reduce the time it takes to get a fire out. you have better chance of civilian survivability and less smoke and the fire won't spread. for firefighters, getting that fire out faster protickets us. having that additional firefighter on the line is less stress on us.
2:25 am
heart attack is number one killer of firefighters. >> todd: with that as the backdrop, can you wrap your head around the insanity of jeopardizing the lives of the citizens and firefighters to give people who are here in our city illegally all expenses paid trip. >> as a taxpayer, i would be disgusted to find out it would be affected by the migrant crisis. there is eshg normous new york city budget. this is 1/10th of 1% of that budget. there will be a company that does not have that additional firefighters. >> todd: and you are heading into winter, the busiest time for firefighters. has mayor eric adams set you up to fail? >> absolutely. when eric adams came into
2:26 am
office, his budget people told them to remove this because of the medical leave was so high. this was in 2022. within a few weeks, fire in the bronx and we lost 17 people. we had a conversation and the fifth firefighter came back. medical leave has been hard, we are understaffed. they brought the additional staffing back and now taking it away again as we go into winter. he's been informed. >> todd: he said he is not doing anything to jeopardize public safety. your response to that? >> same thing as taking police off the street. we put out fires, you put less of us on the street, it will take longer inform fires, seconds save lives. if you are adding minutes, there is only one outcome. >> todd: hope he reverses this

other state. we shouldn't be surprised he moved this to a virtual ceremony. this tradition dates back to the 1930s. it is not the first time gavin newsom stood up to pro-hamas protesters. pro-hamas protesters have shut events down and we're yet to hear anything from this governor on standing with our partner, israel. we just heard heartwrenching stories and gavin newsom has been silent about his party pushing this agenda. >> carley: i am sure small business owners are upset, they could have had foot traffic and raised money with this event. have you heard from any of them? >> absolutely. when we have community events and it is getting tougher and tougher in places like

sacramento because of rise in crime and pro-criminal policies that democrats have championed and governor newsom signed many policies into action. small businesses are hurting. this is detrimental to businesses. >> carley: governor newsom said he cancelled to make sure everybody stays safe. does he have a point there if this tree lighting were to take place and a protest happened, how would you make sure it didn't get out of hand? >> that is why we have to stand with law enforcement, he is coming down on the side of criminals. we deserve a governor that will stand up to the radical left and governor newsom has proved he is not willing to do that. he should not get the promotion to the white house. >> carley: i'm sure protesters would consider this a win, they

so you aren't hungry or fatigued. after i started taking release, the weight just started falling off. since starting golo and taking release, i've gone from a size 12 to a 4. before golo, i was hungry all the time and constantly thinking about food. after taking release, that stopped. with release, i didn't feel that hunger that comes with dieting. which made the golo plan really easy to stick to. since starting golo and release, i have dropped seven pant sizes and i've kept it off. golo is real, our customers are real, and our success stories are real. why not give it a try?

2:56 am
history for a single day. but here's what the president had to say about it. >> extreme republicans are playing chicken with our national security, holding ukraine's funding hostage extreme border policies. i made it clear we need congress to make changes to fix what is a broken immigration system. because we know, we all it's broken. i'm willing to do significantly more. >> carley: arizona congressman andy biggs joins us now. just to put that number into context 12,000 migrant encounters in a single day. take a listen to something former dhs secretary jeh johnson said in 201. listen to this i know 1,000 overblems the system. i cannot begin to imagine what 4,000 looks like. we are truly in a crisis. >> carley: now we are at three times what jeh johnson said he couldn't even imagine would be like. we're at 12,000 instead of 4
2:57 am
you, though. the president yesterday blamed republicans. what's your response to that. >> well, it's not the republicans that have opened the border. and we can now see what 12,000 or 10,000 a day looks like because that's the average is over 10,000 a day right now. and so when you start looking at how this is unfolding, look. there was not, in that group of 1,000 in lukeville, arizona, two days ago. there was not a single female. there was not a single child. every one of that 1,000 plus persons was 18 to 35-year-old men we call that military age. they have made this country very dangerous. and we don't know what we don't know because we know there was probably another 5,000 people who came in that got away, that didn't turn themselves in. >> todd: drilling down on that, each day that the biden administration allows new records to be broken at our southern and northern border. can't forget about the northern border, how much does the threat of a terror attack on the
