weeks and at least you can have that, and everybody else is doing it with you. >> not a chance, not a chance. i'm german, beer, and i'm -- tequila, not happening. sorry, todd, tammy. >> other resolutions then. >> can we hang out in april? once i'm done with the first three months. >> you are stretching it out. >> like lent on social media, not really. >> do not forget to dvr the show, "america reports" around the corner, looking forward to that. we appreciate it. see you next time. >> the colorado republican party is asking the u.s. supreme court to overturn the state's historic decision to ban the former president from the primary

ballot. appeal means he will remain on the ballot for now until the justices decide whether to take the case. hello, everyone, i'm anita vogel in los angeles. hi, bryan. >> bryan: i'm bryan in new york, sandra and john are off, this is "america reports". the former president is facing a dozen challenges to eligibility to office, but caucus next month in iowa and new hampshire, and today at least two of his rivals are barnstorming the state. >> anita: chad, how are trump's republican rivals responding to his legal issues? >> chad: vivek ramaswamy wants gop candidates to withdraw from states who refuse to place mr.

trump on the ballot. >> republicans can protect ourselves, i've led the way in doing it, by saying any state that removes donald trump from the ballot, none of us should be on the ballot because that then takes states like colorado out of the gop primary which stops them from engaging in this kind of election interference. >> chad: the colorado gop is appealing the ruling to remove the former president from the ballot to the supreme court. >> dangerous theory has been replicated throughout the country as challengers try to find a judge or court to give credence to this theory. many of us believe that it's fundamentally wrong from historical and legal perspective. >> chad: ramaswamy is embracing former president trump, presenting him stefl as like the former president, he has done what they call the full grassley, reference to gop iowa senator chuck grassley. he visits each of the state's 99

counties every year. nikki haley is focusing on new hampshire, contrasting herself with the president she served as u.n. ambassador. >> i believe president trump was the right president at the right time. i support a lot of his policies. but rightly or wrongly chaos follows him. we can't be a country in disarray and a world on fire and go through four more years of chaos. we won't survive it. >> chad: it's hard for candidates to capture the attention of voters during the holidays but not with the iowa caucuses in mid january. and the new hampshire primary in less than a month. former president trump has three big campaign rallies planned in iowa next week. anita. >> anita: all starting soon. chad, live in the nation's capital. >> bryan: house republicans are

looking whether president biden played a role in the deposition this month, they say it's an impeachable offense. sarah bedford is standing by, but first, live in st. croix where the first family is spending their holiday vacation. lucas. >> bryan, they have written the white house counsel to say they are expanding the investigation into the president as part of the impeachment inquiry, read you part of the letter, in light of an official statement from the white house that president biden was aware in advance that his son hunter biden would knowingly defy two congressional subpoenas, house oversight committee chairman. >> what did you do to receive the money, they also know joe biden stated during the campaign he never met with any of these people who sent his family money, and that he had a wall between the government and his

family shady business schemes. >> and here is the statement from white house press secretary karine jean-pierre which irked the house republicans. >> look, you know, the president was certainly familiar with what his son was going to say and i think what you saw was from the heart from his son. >> not everyone agrees with the white house press secretary. >> it was stupid for hunter biden to defy that subpoena, it was certainly stupid of him to go on the capital grounds and give the middle finger to congress on the day he was supposed to be in there testifying, it was stupid in my opinion for his lawyer to be standing there with him while he was doing it and stupid if his father had any connection. >> hunter biden makes his first court appearance on the new tax charges on january 11th. hunter was not seen getting off air force one yesterday when the president arrived here in st.

croix. >> bryan: lucas, thank you. >> anita: sarah bedford, washington examiner political investigative reporter, also a steamboat institute blankly fellow. thank you for joining us today. so the feds have been looking into hunter biden since at least 2019 and you've been following it very closely. one case in delaware on the gun charges and one case in california on tax evasion that's possibly the more serious case, i believe. now the house gop, their probe is looking into what the president knew about his son hunter defying this congressional subpoena that lucas was talking about, and does that come into play when it comes to the impeachment investigation, and i want to just read part of the letter from the house gop to the white house, let's go ahead and put that up, call for number one, in light of this evidence, the fact that the president had advanced

awareness that mr. biden would defy the committee subpoenas, raises a troubling new question that we must examine. whether the president corruptly sought to influence or obstruct the committee's proceeding by preventing, discouraging or dissuading his son from complying with the committee subpoenas. such conduct could constitute an impeachable offense. do you agree with that? >> well, i'm not sure that in and of itself would rise to the level of impeachment in the eyes of more centrist republicans, but i do think it's a significant development and it would not have been had the justice department not been so aggressive about prosecuting contempt of congress referrals during the trump administration. right now steve bannon is fighting to stay out of prison after being convicted and sentenced on a contempt of congress charge. peter navarro, a former trump aide, and the justice department stayed out of and the argument

by democrats it's a separation of powers issue that congress should have the kind of oversight authority that is enforceable with criminal charges and the justice department under trump agreed. the double standard if the doj does not prosecute the same offense in hunter biden's case. >> anita: we'll see what happens there. going back to the other charges against hunter, i believe he makes his first court appearance on the tax charges on january 11th. that's a pretty serious charge, right? >> right, he's facing three felonies among the nine criminal charges he's facing in california and the most serious of them includes lying to the irs, so this is not a situation where hunter biden may have forgotten to file taxes, dealing with addiction, administrative

m misstep, this is a more serious charge than the misdemeanors laid out in the plea deal in delaware withdrawn over the summer. this puts hunter biden in legal jeopardy, and he has laid out in his memoir and media interviews what he was doing at the time he claimed to rack up hundreds of thousands in business expenses he allegedly wrote off, it's going to be a difficult case for the lawyer to defend. >> anita: and more and more of the gop investigations into president biden. james comer and jim jordan have wire transfers, a check possibly to joe biden, the democrats say it's nothing, it's a hill of hooey, they keep asking where the evidence is, but listen to both members of congress. >> the constituents want to know

what's going on here. they want to know is our president for sale, has hour president been conspiring with enemies around the world for millions of dollars that was sent to his family. this is not normal behavior. >> it was always about giving access to the brand and the brand is devon archer, one of hunter biden's business partners told us under oath, the brand was the biden name, it was joe biden. >> anita: quick reaction, does this amount to evidence in your opinion and what does it take to convince democrats and the american people that possibly joe biden did something illegal here. >> nothing to convince democrats a smoking gun exists, first evidence that joe biden was aware of what his son was doing was a smoking gun and contradicted his denials and then evidence that joe biden was in contact with his son's business partners was a smoking gun because joe biden denied any

involvement and then evidence that joe biden was profiting, benefitting financially from his brother and his son's businesses, that was not a smoking gun, now short of a business card that says joe biden, ceo of hunter biden private business, inc., the goal posts have been moved far on what's evident that joe biden lied to the american people about this. >> anita: the stories seem to be changing a little bit, but hearing more about it in the new year. thank you for coming in today. sarah bedford, happy new year to you. bryan, that's true, the goal posts have changed like sarah said and the democrats say there's no smoking gun but republicans might say quite a few smoking guns here. >> bryan: no doubt about it and the stakes could not be higher going into the new year obviously with the election but the pressure on house republicans with just a three-vote majority to try to corral all the votes for potential articles of

impeachment to find something because they put themselves in that bind. now an expectation for the american people there should or could be articles of impeachment in this inquiry, so we'll see and now they have a pretty short timeline. they are talking about reportedly investigators here, anita, trying to come up with impeachment articles perhaps by the end of january. so, tons of pressure on both sides here. >> anita: we'll see what happens there. >> you cannot allow busses with people needing our help to arrive without warning at any hour of day and night. >> bryan: the massive surge of migrants at the southern border has texas sending more migrants to sanctuary cities. democratic leaders are taking measures to stem the tide. will it work? >> anita: a new migrant caravan is making its way to the u.s. and could arrive to the border the middle of next month. some 8,000 migrants are estimated a part of it. speak to an independent

journalist on the ground following the caravan coming up next. because the only thing dripping should be your style. plop plop fizz fizz with alka-seltzer plus cold & flu relief. also try for fizzy fast cough relief. narrator: time is running out to give a year-end gift like no other, a gift that can help st. jude children's research hospital save lives. woman: cancer doesn't care how old you are, and it's devastatingly scary.

>> the president of the united states must help us. we are migrants. >> we go there to work on our children to study. it is all that we want. >> pennsylvania. new york. chicago. >> bryan: migrants say the president has given them the green light to come on in. secretary of state antony blinken and dhs secretary mayorkas discussing that in what they describe as a very productive meeting with mexican president obrador. senior biden administration officials say the meeting in mexico city lasted more than two hours, adding that mexico agreed on the need to crack down on smuggling.

mexico's president says an agreement to reopen rail crossings was reached but added the fentanyl crisis was hardly discussed. all of this unfolding as a caravan of some 8,000 migrants makes its way north to the u.s. sanctuary cities deal with new migrants, and start with one covering the story and thank you for being here. appreciate it. >> my pleasure, good to be with you. >> bryan: odden, the latest on the number, where they are and who is making up this caravan. >> so initially it was 8,000, latest number it dropped to 7, some have been able to either, they can no longer continue on or some of those have been catered to by smugglers and they are taking different routes.

but so far, the number still is around 7,000. it's made up of 24 different countries, the majority from cuba, venezuela, some african and asian nations in there. and they are gradually moving. they moved out of tapachula in protest that they were not being granted their transit papers to travel through mexico, make it to the u.s. border. so in a form of protest they came out as a caravan, walked to another town, where once again they were denied transit papers, so they are continuing to the northern part, or central part of mexico and that's essentially where they take the trains and that's how they arrive to border towns and i've been documenting how they arrive on train and crossing to eagle pass by the thousands. >> bryan: the meeting happened yesterday between antony blinken, secretary of state as well as the department of

homeland security secretary, with obrador and official, looks like they are going to keep the ports of entry open, and mexican authorities have gone into some encampments on the mexican side of the border and have removed those encampments, but do you see anything coming from this meeting in terms of stopping this caravan in particular from getting on board those trains? anything from mexico that says we are going to do anything at all that's remotely different than what they have done in the past? >> well, i see this as a state of weakness for the united states. i think mexico has the upper hand and they have been able to leverage this situation with the migrants. >> bryan: why do you think that? >> well, one, because the closure of the ports of entry did impact mexico economically but now that secretary mayorkas and blinken went to mexico to

negotiate with mexico, they realized that he has the upper hand and can negotiate and that's why the ports of entries are now open, including the railways in juarez, el paso and eagle pass, so i think it's a victory for lopez obrador and i think he has taken measures on the northern part of mexico as you mentioned in matamoros, and they are flying migrants back to southern mexico, the initial phase of the agreement. however, the bottleneck that forms in southern mexico like tapachula cannot be maintained by mexico and that's why we are seeing the caravans out of there. >> bryan: 75,000 -- 35,000 migrants, christmas break, 250,000 since december 1st, the highest number of encounters ever this month, odden. if you were in the meeting with

the mexican officials and biden officials, what would you say mexico must do to help us here and does it fall on mexico, really, to help stop this? >> if you ask mexicans, they say it's not their responsibility. mexico has said repeatedly that they can't stop migrants as long as the united states has their doors open. as long as they are admitting migrants and allowing them into the country, there's very little mexico can do and i think that's part of the bargaining that blinken and mayorkas brought to mexico, they can't implement trump-era policies, otherwise they will alienate the base and they want mexico to do their bidding and mexico has their hands tied. i don't think there's much they can do, other than the impact they receive economically and that's why they negotiate, but other than that, there's very little that mexico says is not their responsibility on the other hand, what lopez obrador

has said is invest in root causes, cuba and venezuela, instead of in mexico, essentially saying it's not my responsibility to stop the migrants from coming through mexico as long as we have your doors open and the border is completely open and he doesn't see it as being mexico's responsibility. >> bryan: and obviously after the meeting the caravan makes it way north, we have not seen anything yet by way of stopping the trains or any kind of significant border enforcement other than the encampments so far that shows it's going to be different than in the past, mexico stepping in with enforcement for a few weeks or months and then back to normal. thank you for all the reporting that you are doing. >> my pleasure, thank you. >> anita: three mayors, or mayors of three self-proclaimed sanctuary cities lashing out at texas governor greg abbott, they

accuse him of using migrants as political pawns. eric adams taking action in a bid to slow the surge, one that is a tiny fraction of what border communities are facing every day. nate foy has much more on this. hi, nate. >> hey, anita. new york city mayor adams is threatening to punish charter bus companies if they don't follow certain rules. communicate with the city 32 hours before dropping migrants off at a designated locations and all drop-offs must happen between 8:30 a.m. and noon, monday through friday. any bus company that fails to do that could face fines are other punishment. adams again criticized greg abbott but said he cannot even get a meeting with president joe biden to address the issue. >> but this is a national problem, this has only been exacerbated by governor abbott's

inhumane politics and that requires additional national solutions. the federal government must take responsibility and lead on this humanitarian crisis. >> anita, you mentioned the mayors of chicago and denver are also asking for more federal help. they want more money and also want migrants to have the ability to work. >> what we are asking for is folks that are arriving and are paroled in, come with work authorization so we can help them do what they want to do, support themselves and their families. >> bryan talked about the minimal results with the mexican president yesterday. brandon judd says this crisis will continue if the incentive structure remains the same. >> we have to stop releasing these people into the united states. we have to stop giving that magnet that draws so many people to cross our borders illegally. >> again, the southern border is

on pace for the most migrant encounters ever, roughly 250,000 in december, more busses are set to go to sanctuary cities like new york. >> anita: thank you, nate. bryan. >> bryan: america continues to clash with iran proxies, they have attacked 106 times since october 17th. pressure is mounting on the president to take stronger action and keep tensions from escalating. retired u.s. colonel weighs in. >> anita: and the house where four students were murdered has been demolished. mercedes has her expertise. >> families don't want the children to be forgotten and the university and city of moscow

wants it removed so it becomes back to as much normalcy as it could.

intriengz. >> bryan: a second american held hostage declared dead. judi weinstein haggai's death was announced. israel pounds gaza as it expands the ground operation in one of the most densely populated areas in the gaza strip. joe standing by on how close this is to becoming a wider conflict, but first let's go to trey yingst with the latest in tel aviv. trey. >> trey: good afternoon. a devastating update for both israelis and americans, judi weinstein was in the small community of nir oz on october 7th along the gaza border when the attack took place. just last week, hamas announced her husband was dead and her

community announcing she died as well, killed by hamas on the dreadful morning and yet another reminder why israeli forces are inside gaza. they have two goals, to look for the remaining hostages and to go after hamas leadership. israelis releasing the new video of a drone going into a mosque inside the gaza strip as the drone flies to the left, you look down and you can see the entrance of a tunnel that hamas used to move fighters and weapons inside gaza. infrastructure like this the is israelis are up against. 167 israeli soldiers have been killed since the ground operation began. that number is expected to rise as israeli forces push deeper into central and southern gaza. i do want to draw your attention to the west bank, where overnight israeli forces conducted a series of raids against palestinian targets in

ten separate cities. it was the city of ramallah that was the most significant raid, according to local media. 14 people were wound and one killed, they say they confiscated millions of dollars and information that palestinian factions were in the west bank. and not just focus on threats internally and the borders in the south and the north of the country, but also broader, looking at things like the houthi rebels in yemen and iranian proxies across the region. bryan. >> bryan: reports coming as the minister of defense said it's unprecedented, first time the idf has gone this far south un-gaza and encountering things they have never encountered before. so live in tel aviv. thank you for that. appreciate it.

anita. >> anita: bryan, sanctions coming after president biden says the u.s. airstrikes launched in iraq remember directed to discourage iran and militants from more attacks on u.s. personnel. the strike came just after an iran proxy drone critically injured a u.s. service member. but is president biden doing enough to defend american troops? since mid october, there have been at least 106 attacks on u.s. bases in the middle east. let's bring in former centcom spokesperson and retired u.s. army colonel joe buccino. thank you for joining us today. you just heard at least 106 attacks on our forces in the middle east, and you know, they don't seem to be letting up. we expect those numbers, unfortunately, to rise. several americans have also been injured. the "wall street journal" has this headline from an opinion piece, call for number one, it says is iran pushing biden around and goes on to read at

the moment, iran is dictating the pace and scope of the conflict. the biden administration leery of escalation has maintained a purely reactive military posture. the u.s. needs to move quickly to change the status quo with iran. hope that our defense capabilities will continue to limit casualties is not a viable strategy to avoid war. that comes from a gentleman by the name of douglas london, a former cia ops officer. do you agree with what he's saying that iran is pushing president biden around? >> i agree with what he's saying, the "wall street journal," op-ed has it right, on december 6th i went one step further than he did. yes, i think the united states is in a low grade war with iran. we are just not acknowledging it. our strategy here is one of restraint. and the problem with restraint here, restraint is a good value, it's a good quality in american

presidents, often a good strategy for the united states, but the history of iran shows it's not a good strategy with iran, and the history of the last five days shows it's not a good strategy here. yesterday lebanese hezbollah conducted the most intense attacks into northern israel since all this started. two days prior to that american warships in the red sea shot down a dozen houthi drones, three anti-service ballistic missiles and two surface to surface missiles, the most complicated houthi attack to date out of the red sea. the houthis, they operate in yemen, one of the poorest countries in the world, they would not have the capability for this complex attack without iran. so we are in a low grade war with iran, we are just not acknowledging it. >> anita: first time i've heard anybody put it that way, low grade war. the "wall street journal" suggests the u.s. needs to show

more military might to show who is in charge, maybe not with actual missiles but cyber attacks to take out the power grid, banking system, poor infrastructure, things like that. what do you think about that? >> i think absolutely. look, i look at the messaging, deterrence with iran is about show of force messaging. when we did this strike, this limited pinprick strike in iraq the other day, the pentagon called it a proportionate strike, ok. it's proportionate only if you view it as a conflict between the united states and kataib hezbollah. proportionate in this sense is like playing a game of checkers. they make a move, then we make a move, then they make a move, then we make a move and goes on and on for months. the problem with that, one of these missiles is going to get

through american defenses and kill a lot of american soldiers at some point. and we are going to have -- and let's hope it does not happen, god forbid, but that will introduce a catastrophic escalation in the region. >> anita: yeah, let's hope that doesn't happen for sure. i want to take a listen quickly to former u.s. ambassador to israel, david freeman. >> there's no question that american strength will deter iran and bring us to a more peaceful place. biden seems to think by getting on our knees and begging for mercy will end or reduce the risk of conflict. just the opposite. we are so much stronger than them that the failure to exercise the strength is causing iran to engage in malign active across the crescent of the middle east. >> anita: joe, 15 seconds to react to that. your thoughts and a balancing act when american lives are at stake in the region. >> yeah, i would say i fully agree. we need to scale up, not

proportionate, we need to scale up. >> anita: ok. joe buccino, thank you for your thoughts today. appreciate it. >> bryan: are diversity, equity and inclusion jobs disappearing? companies are learning going woke may be bad for business. >> anita: fight over christmas gifts turns deadly. teenage tragedy on christmas eve. >> proliferation of guns on the streets and in this area and in the hands of the kids is the worst i've ever seen it. i don't think we have ever seen it this bad.

more inclusive workplace sounds good, but now many corporations signal they cannot just afford it. a brand-new report reveals dei related job postings in november fell more than 20% over last year's numbers. fox business's lydia hu joins us now. thank you for being here, good to see you. which companies are now pulling back on these dei jobs? >> names you are going to recognize. talking about j.p. morgan chase, american airlines, blackrock, they are changing the dei policies and we know this, it's coming from a reuters report. the companies are revising aspects of their company like scholarship programs, employee trainings, other company initiatives. reuters says that blackrock removed language describing a scholarship as "designed for specific under represented groups." j.p. morgan, advancing hispanics and latinos and advancing black pathways. those invite students of all

backgrounds applications. nonprofits, american first legal contacted the companies and demanded they stop considering race or sex in employment decisions. demands were made to several companies, including starbucks, morgan stanley and mcdonald's. the companies i mentioned before, they are among at least six that revised their dei policies after receiving letters threatening lawsuits. lowe's, and others, and they say the policies do not serve the shareholders. >> they distract them with political issues and internal complaints away from what they should be doing to serving their consumer. so, as these companies have looked for ways to cut costs in a more aggressive interest rate environment, the first thing on the chopping block is the dei department. >> and some are saying this might be the start of the

pullback from dei. as you remember, the supreme court struck down affirmative action in college admissions over the summer and it's calling into question the legality of dei policies in the corporate work arena, and that's why job openings are probably down as you noticed more than 20%. >> bryan: big conversation after the supreme court decision, how is this going to affect corporate america and seems it's doing just that. appreciate you. lydia hu, fox business, thank you for being here. anita. >> from new york to palestine. >> occupation. >> anita: oh, boy. pro-palestinian protestors making a mess for holiday travelers on one of the busiest weeks of the year. the major airport roads they blocked forcing some to walk with their luggage to catch their flights. who can blame them. >> bryan: synthetic opioid drug ten times more deadly to

>> bryan: police in colorado investigating an overdose death

they say was caused by a drug ten times more powerful than fentanyl. it's nicknamed frankenstein and it's part of a group of drug known as nitazines. dr. marc siegel, and professor of medicine is here with us on this. a terrifying story. we are still grappling with fentanyl and new nitazines. >> good to be with you. they are also synthetic opioids, but a little bit different in structure than fentanyl and they originally were developed in the 1950s for pain but never got approved by the fda so they never got on to the fda/dea radar. in other words, it's not a controlled substance in the united states because it was never officially approved. but bryan, it's been seeping into the country and might imagine where it's coming from. chinese manufacturers are adding

it to fentanyl, adding it to valium, adding it to different drugs that then get sold on the internet or come in through the cartels through mexico. nitazenes are 10 to 20 times more powerful than fentanyl and the know the problem there, we have enough problem with fentanyl, 100 times more powerful than morphine. you may have to give 2 or 3 times more narcan or naloxone to reverse it and even then a big impact on the heart. extremely dangerous drug. now the dea is temporarily trying to restrict it to give more muscle to go after it. it's mostly in the midwest. but the suffolk county d.a. warned me about this a year ago it was seeping into suffolk county. >> bryan: and d.c. and florida and now you have colorado. what are the symptoms, any different than fentanyl, for

instance? >> they are pretty similar to fentanyl but come on quicker. you get the pinpoint pupils, trouble breathing the key, being fatigued, a lot of g.i. simms to, nausea, vomiting, combination of that and trouble with breathing makes it so important the response be really, really rapid, and the other point that makes it so dangerous, it's added and laced into other pills. and people always say to me, why are people doing that, even criminals, why are they doing that? they clearly don't care but also trying to get more bang for the buck out of the drug they are using. extremely dangerous. chinese manufacturers a huge part of this. >> bryan: and can you just touch on the main point about the fact we don't know what this is really, i mean, we don't know how to find it, doctors are seeing this, it took them a while in colorado to even know it was nitazenes. how much more difficult when there are so many unknowns here,

people don't know what to look for at all. >> as usual, hit on the most important point. we don't have it as part of the routine drug test. if i'm doing a urine test to see if somebody is taken opioids, it does not light up. i have to do a special test and i'm not looking for something this powerful or potent. i'm looking for fentanyl and it does not come up under the same tests for fentanyl. the treatments for fentanyl work for this, too. try to wean people off the medically assisted therapy, it's more hard to do that because of how powerful it is, bryan. >> bryan: dr. marc siegel, thank you, one of the unintended consequences of going after fentanyl, now something many times stronger. dr. marc siegel, thanks again. >> thanks, bryan, great to see you. >> anita: the house where four university of idaho students were murdered last year now demolished. the impact this could have on
