people not offer to take the cup back to the kitchen. so, obviously there are a lot of really generous people out there. kennedy, would you offer to take the cup back to the kitchen? >> australian. if you really want to see whether or not someone is a good fit for the team and you are in australia, hey, mate, let's go surf a little bit, hang ten, good waves, over at bonbai, and if someone will surf in the middle of the day that's the person you hire. >> i didn't know what you said but i'm with you. >> i think it's all about being a good leader, a teammate, selfless heart. in the army we let our soldiers eat before we did and people want to see how you are when no one is looking. >> you are in favor of the washing cup. >> washing it was a little weird. >> one of my first jobs was an australian company, and one of the first things was the fridge for the beer for the office. >> when you can't watch us, set

your dvr. "america reports" now. >> this has done nothing but helped donald trump which is ironic given the nature of the people filing the actions in the states. they hate donald trump and yet they are helping him ee -- enormously. >> to impeach me for doing my job is wrong. >> the story is wrong, just dead wrong and hoping the court will put it to bed. >> john: the ballot battle on all sides await challenges from former president trump's legal team could come as early as today. two states booted trump from their primary ballots and several more consider taking similar action. and with that, welcome back to "america reports" this tuesday of the new year. i'm john roberts. good to spend it with you. >> gillian: you too, john, gillian turner in for sandra. this is "america reports". the former president is set to

appeal the colorado decision up to the supreme court and also under maine. they claim he engaged in insurrection during the january 6th riot. >> john: it could have implications with challenges mounting in at least 11 other states. rich edson is live in washington and even some of trump's most stalwart opponents say he should stay on the ballot. >> absolutely. gavin newsom says voters should defeat the former president at the ballot box. trump's republican opponents like governor ron desantis say removing trump from the ballot opens up a pandora's box, and others say the foundations for the challenges are political, not legal. >> these secretaries of state, these individuals doing it, these courts that are pushing these types of measures, they do it with impunity with public pressure and the mainstream

media. >> bill barr who trump once appointed says i opposes trump's candidacy and thinks another trump term would be dangerous for the country but calls the attempt to keep him from the ballot dubious and dangerous. in a post, he writes i do not want trump to get the gop nomination but has to be beaten at the ballot box, not by subverting our democracy. nothing is more destructive of democracy for one side to go against its adversaries. some say i violated the 14th amendment. >> engaging in insurrection is the most democratic, people choose themselves to be disqualified in terms of your age or where you were born, that's not up to you. but donald trump is in that tiny, tiny number of people who have essentially disqualified themselves. >> the former president's legal

team could file challenges as soon as today. john. >> john: rich edson from the latest in d.c. thank you very much. more on this coming up with bob cusack and taking up with juan and jason as well. >> gillian: big question is whether the re-election team for trump will convert the legal challenges into new political fodder going forward. >> john: when you take a look at the polls, biden seems to shoot himself full of holes and trump is getting a lot of sympathy for unelected officials trying to take him out instead of letting the people decide. dynamic going into the election year is incredible. >> gillian: it is interesting is the first adjective to jumps to mind, john. and border, chaos left behind. the month of december recorded the first time in history cbp encountered over 300,000 people. this comes as hundreds of migrants travelling to new york

city via bus from texas and louisiana were diverted to new jersey to finish their journey via computer trains. texas and louisiana are finding work-arounds against the rules transporting from the border. here how the crisis is depleting the department's resources, but first nate foy is at port authority in manhattan. how is mayor eric adams responding to the latest move? >> gillian, during a meeting availability, mayor adams called greg abbott mean spirited, trying to create chaos by as i understanding migrants to new jersey and then new york city for people on the bus directing the migrants to trains once they get dropped off in new jersey. but mayor adams said he is going to work with surrounding cities and states as best as he can to

handle this migrant crisis. listen here. >> we don't want to spill over into another part of the city or neighboring state. and so we think there is a real room for collaboration like we have done with the other cities, you know. our goal was very clear. we want to build a coalition of mayors and governors. >> gillian, mayor adams also said with abbott changing his strategy new york city will have to respond with a change of its own. new jersey governor's office says new jersey is primarily used as a transit point for these families, all or nearly all of them continued with their travels en route to their final destination of new york city. very similar to what's happening in chicago after a similar ordinance passed there restricting migrant drop-offs as well. mayor brandon johnson said over

the weekend a plane full of 350 migrants arrived at the chicago rockford airport, 85 miles outside the city, governor abbott said the hypocrisy of these democrat mayors knows no bounds. border officials processed as you mentioned over 300,000 migrants last month alone at the southern border and that is the most ever. mayor adams chief counsel said during the same media availability that since mayor adams' executive order last wednesday, not a single bus coming from texas has complied with the order. we are waiting to hear back. gillian. >> gillian: nate foy, keep us posted on that, joining us from the port authority in manhattan. >> john: and harvard university big news in a second, but right now, manuel mello, the situation

with the fire department and emergency calls in eagle pass, texas is one of the great untold stories of this migrant crisis. your department, put this up on the screen, gets more than one dispatch an hour to a customs and border protection holding fa it is, $700 a call, $21,000 a day it's costing your department, $2.2 million since september of last year yet there's no funding to take care of this from the federal government, chief? >> no funding at all. we are not getting any funding from the federal government and that's just a conservative number. we actually charge $900 per call. but that's not counting the wear and tear of the vehicles, the overtime, and everything that comes with this migrant crisis. >> john: what's the nature of the calls you receive? >> it's different types of

calls. we get calls from bumps and bruises to pregnant women to heart attacks to near drowning. just about everything that we can handle. >> john: it runs the gamut. when you consider 10,000 illegal immigrants being held in cbp facilities in eagle pass, texas, tony gonzalez said one day, december 19, 4000, illegal migrants came into the eagle pass, texas area. you can imagine it's going to put a strain on resources, including emergency response. >> of course. eagle pass is a small city. not more than 30,000 people if you count the county, we are 75,000, and we only have 1, 2, 3 stations working the whole border region, the whole county so we still have to take care of

our citizens, too. >> john: only one hospital in the area as well. so sometimes my understanding is you'll have a patient in the ambulance and have to wait 30 to 40 minutes to get them into the hospital because there's no room. >> that is correct. and we also have a protocol where we do a treatment no transport and we just implemented this one this weekend, this protocol because our hospital was overwhelmed. >> john: the spokeswoman for the white house, karine jean-pierre, was asked about funding for border communities. >> we have been in touch with the governors and the mayors dealing with the issue they have been dealing with on the ground and provided resources to them and have those conversations. congress needs to act. the president took it seriously on day one. >> john: she said the white house and the president are

providing resources. is that correct? >> i haven't seen any. >> john: hopefully you will at some point. you also said when you talked to fox digital, the federal government has to put its foot down and say no more migrants coming in, they need to stop the madness, but no indication they are thinking about that let alone doing it. >> they have not done one thing and we keep on getting the large amount of migrants coming through eagle pass. we had to get together with emergency management this weekend because one of the ngos, the only ngo here in eagle pass, shut down for a day on new year's day so we had migrants on the streets. >> john: it's a terrible situation down there, we do hope that the federal government will make good on the pledge that karine jean-pierre gave just a little while ago and you get some money to help you out.

it's costing you dearly. chief, stay in touch. thank you. >> gillian: fox news alert, the harvard crimson, a student-run newspaper out of harvard is now reporting that their president, embattled president claudine gay is set to resign, reporting she's planning to do so this afternoon. she's been in the position just six months. she's now facing lasting criticism about her inability, alleged inability to manage antisemitism across the campus and protect jewish students. she's also facing nearly 50 accusations of distinct incidents of plagiarism in her publications, all this coming to a head, it looks like this afternoon. harvard crimson and the boston globe are reporting she's going to step aside and announce her resignation. >> john: it may be the

plagiarism, because harvard was standing by her and o'er position calling for the genocide of jews violates policy at hard, that took out liz magill at u-penn, the woman at mit is in her job, but plagiarism charges she seemed to be on shakey ground, and big ackman calling to take her out, they were resistant. >> gillian: this may ultimately be it. the school has not spoken about her tenure since december 12th when they issued the findings -- not the findings, excuse me, issued announcement she would remain in her role, they said she conducted an investigation into the allegations of plagiarism, they had had edit works to include sourcing they said was missing but other than

that, standing completely by her. it will be very interesting to see what kind of a statement or public announcement accompanies her resignation over the coming hours. eyeballs on that. >> john: court of public opinion, people were saying how can you be the president of a university when a student would be penalized for turning in such work that was not annotated in the proper way, quotes were not attributed the way they should have been. so if you are leading the whole place, you have to lead by example and people are saying she wasn't. >> gillian: and last month she testified here on capitol hill and declined to denounce antisemitism or even really say calls for genocide of jewish people would violate the university's rules and procedures. so all of this coming to a head for the embattled president. >> john: all depends on the context was the response. threw a lot of people. more on this as it comes

through. >> gillian: two people have been killed and several more hurt after a car crashed into a crowd at a concert in rochester yesterday, then subsequently burst into flames. the driver also died on scene, alexis mcadams joins us with a report from new york city. >> chaotic scene to say the least in upstate new york. a driver heading toward a crowd of pedestrians, but the fbi says no evidence of terrorism. >> what i can tell you is so far we have uncovered no evidence of ideology and no nexus to terrorism either international or domestic. >> this happened in the early morning hours as people were walking out of a concert for new year celebrations, a man driving a rental suv sped toward the group of people leaving the event, and smashed into an uber, killing both passengers inside. at least nine other people were

injured and one person left with life-altering injuries. this is the driver who died after the crash. 35-year-old michael avery of syracuse, new york. investigators tell us he was in the area for a couple days, you can see him buying the gas cans, stopping at stores in town to buy them, several were in the car at the time of the crash leading to a large fire and havoc. no suicide note but the family giving some clues. listen. >> the conversations we have had with his family so far leads us to believe that avery may have been suffering from possible undiagnosed mental health issues. >> right now the community is left with more questions than answers here, wondering why the suspect traveled more than an hour to rochester and why he chose this specific concert venue. so more information we'll bring it to you.

>> gillian: alexis mcadams, thank you. >> john: this was a dramatic happening earlier today, flames engulf a plane carrying hundreds at a tokyo runway, a collision leaves at least five dead. who investigations believed happened to cause that. >> gillian: and some old problems are plaguing the president in the polls. why some of these problems are still lingering. >> we hear him and his message talk about how things are going well and the problem for this president is what he says doesn't match up with what americans see. like the new deli heroes. buy one footlong in the app, get one free. it's a pretty big deal. kinda like me. order in the subway app today. ♪

>> john: president joe biden and the first lady returning to the white house today of a vacationing in the virgin islands to celebrate the new year. the president's re-election campaign expected to shift into high gear now and he'll need as men gears as he can get because new polls show he's got his work cut out for him. bob cusack, editor in chief of the hill will join us, but first to david spunt live at the white house, new "u.s.a. today" poll for the president, not looking good, and how are officials spinning it. >> spinning it in their favor, they say the president is looking forward to getting back to work, he's on vacation in st. croix, back this evening to the house around 10:00. he will join into the alligator-filled waters that represent the nation's capital, the new poll shows an up hill climb for democrats and really republicans, 20% of hispanic and

black voters braking for third party candidates. here is biden's spokeswoman, white house press secretary hours ago. >> in 2020 the president was able to bring together the most -- the largest most historic coalition that we have ever seen, that democrats have ever seen. so obviously we want to continue that. what we have done for the black community and the latino community -- the black community, 9.2%, now it's under 6%, that's because of bidenomics. >> the president's agenda will be put to the test, mike johnson said president biden needs to stop vacationing and take immediate steps to stop illegal migration into the country. sovereignty depends on it and the american people demand it. and a fight not only with border

funding, but the ukraine funding package and israel package, the question what happens in the house, totally different animal and house republicans say they are vehemently opposed to it. >> john: we'll keep watching it. a lot to unfold in the months ahead. starting us off at the white house. >> gillian: bob cusack, editor in chief of "the hill." let's dig into the polls, if as karine jean-pierre says the president delivered this historic coalition in 2020, it certainly appears to be on the fritz, it is fraying at this moment. this "u.s.a. today" poll found, right for you, among hispanic voters trump is leading, young voters trump is leading and one in five black voters will support a third party candidate. shocking news for the democrats.

>> 2022 was good for him, better than expected in the midterms, but those numbers are troubling and biden has a major enthusiasm problem. trump, his voters are fired up for him. biden, his coalition, it's crumbling he's the underdog and i think it would be wise to embrace the underdog roll as barack obama did a year before his election. >> john: the national level means nothing in terms of electing the president, but karl rove had a break down this morning on "america's newsroom." >> georgia, joe biden won by 11,799 votes, 29% of the electorate is black. if there is a 0.9%, less than 1% by blacks in georgia, biden loses it. in arizona, 10,417, 2.7%

decline, today it's 20% decline, a 2.7% decline and he loses arizona. and wisconsin, 20,682 votes winning margin, 14% of the electorate are voters 18-29, 7.6% decline among them and he loses wisconsin. >> john: and more than that, 21% say they might vote for a third party candidate. on the surface, that looks really bad. but remember how bad it looked for democrats in 2022, much better than expected. >> the economy is showing some signs of rejuvinating. the same time, trump has a big advantage on the economy and biden has to neutralize the gap. and democrats have abortion and that helped them in the last midterm election but joe biden has to run on his record. we are not in 2020 anymore. covid is over, he has to campaign more and recent poll in

michigan has him down ten points. that's a must-win. real problem. >> gillian: the bad news for the former president is not all of biden's losses recording the groups, a survey found trump has 12% of the black vote, that is the same number that went to victory. >> some don't want biden or trump and may vote for a third party out of protest and as karl rove was saying the margins are so small biden barely won in 2020, his numbers are worse now and that's giving the former president the edge right now. >> john: the former president is getting a bump in places like colorado and maine kicking him off the ballot, what the "wall street journal" said about it, maine casts the ballot for contribution to donald trump's re-election campaign from maine's secretary of state who announced thursday

she will delete mr. trump's maim from the presidential primary ballot. maine is the second state after colorado to declare him a january 6th insurrectionist under the 14th amendment, paging the supreme court, alas. is this going to help propel him to the presidency? you have democrats saying whoa, this is not fair, you can't do this. voters can kick him off the ballot but the unelected secretary of state of maine can't do it. >> right. and colorado, democrats were split because it's it was 4-3 in that decision. i think most people think the voters should decide, this has helped trump. i think the supreme court should and will decide and maybe it's a 6-3 decision, maybe 9-0 decision but most people think, and that's why democrats are divided on it, let the people decide. >> gillian: and remains to be seen whether the dozens states threatening to follow through with their own suits actually do. >> and i think the roberts court

will intervene, they have to provide clarity going into a turbulent year. >> john: novel concept, let the people decide. we should try that out some day. day 88 of the israel and hamas war, how the idf plans withdraw troops from gaza change the direction of the year. latest next. >> gillian: iran is upping the ante after u.s. forces hit back on houthi rebels. they have tried to avoid escalation. how is it working out? congressman michael waltz will join us on that next. just to see if you qualify for a home loan. yet, some lenders charge you hundreds of dollars in upfront fees just to apply. they keep your money even if they turn you down. call newday. unlike other lenders, at newday there's no upfront appraisal fee, no upfront termite inspection fee and no upfront water test fee. not $1 out of pocket. give us a call.

>> john: all right, so it has become official now, claudine gay is stepping down as the president of harvard university. she just released a resignation letter says in part when i became president i considered myself particularly blessed by the opportunity to serve people

from around the world who saw in my presidency a vision of harvard that affirmed their sense of belonging, their sense that harvard welcomes people of talent and promise from every background imaginable, to learn from and grow with one another. so jewish students might take exception to that. and said when my brief presidency is remembered, i hope it will be seen as a moment of reawakening to the importance of our humanity and not rancor retuperation, she's not going to leave harvard but not president again. this is the same situation that liz magill at u. pen was in. >> gillian: the shortest tenure in harvard history, six days and two months, and never wrong

wikipedia has updated her, and says she was the president of the university. >> john: big pushback from harvard possible pushed out or pressured to rein is an -- resign, she was the first black president of harvard university, and liz magill was only there six months. >> gillian: escalating and becoming a focal point as a result of the ongoing israel-hamas war in the gaza strip. she testified on capitol hill and declined to condemn the chants of students at her university calling for the elimination and destruction of the entire israeli state. a lot of folks feel on campus and outside as a result of that she lost their confidence and her ability to protect jewish

students on campus who felt threatened. >> john: don't know what's going to happen with the president of mit, it would seem she's in a different position than claudine gay or liz magill, and even though harvard was standing behind gay, a lot of people, including billionaire bill ackman and others saying she has to go, she just cannot stay given the fact that another ivy league president was forced to step down saying exactly almost word for word the same thing. i'm trying to go through this letter here, she said here, after consultation with members of the corporation, this is harvard, it has become clear it is in the best interest of harvard for me to resign so the community can navigate the extraordinary challenge and focus on the institution rather than any individual and i think it could well be said that

harvard's reputation was really badly being damaged by what happened on capitol a few weeks ago and her staying on. you had a reduction i think of about 17% in early admissions at harvard, again people like harvard alum bill ackman threatening to withhold money, the same thing happened at u-penn, a very big donor said he was withdrawing $100 million donation to u-penn. so it was reputation, it was money, a lot of things and pressure came to bear, i don't know if she was forced to step down, she says after consultation with the corporation, clearly there was -- >> gillian: by the way is staying publicly silent since december 12th, no insight really into what the corporation is thinking. >> john: you can only ever speculate what happened during the meeting but did end up with her issuing a letter of

resignation moments ago. >> gillian: all the developments on the story as they come not newsroom. turn to this, hamas said deputy leader has been called in a suburb of beirut, lebanon. idf is going to withdraw some forces from the gaza strip in the coming weeks. benjamin netanyahu says it anticipates a new phase of the war in gaza and insists that israel's military operations will last for many more months, six or more. florida congressman mike waltz will join us with more on iran's response to the american attacks on houthi rebels in the red sea. first, though, we go live to trey yingst, he's in tel aviv this hour. what is the latest on the ground? >> trey: breaking news out of beirut, lebanon, today israeli strike reportedly killed the deputy chairman of hamas, we understand the strike took place

just before 6:00 p.m. local time, and targeted a car in the beirut suburb, a hezbollah stronghold. he was one of hamas's key political figures, he was one of the founding members of hamas' military wing, and is considered their leader for operations in the west bank. what's especially important, though, his relationship with hezbollah and the iranian regime. in october he met in person with hezbollah leader and also traveled to iran in the past where he met with the iran supreme leader and the head of the irgc. benjamin netanyahu issued a threat to him saying he would be targeted amid the wave of attacks. netanyahu ominously said he knows where he and his friends are hiding and the u.s. state department had a $5 million bounty on the head of the deputy

chairman of hamas, and paints a picture how high up and how important of a target he was for the israelis. gillian. >> gillian: trey yingst in tel aviv. thank you. >> john: iran has deployed a warship in response to the u.s. killing at least ten houthi fighters who were attacking in the red sea. mike waltz, former green beret commander and serves on the foreign affairs committee. we'll get to the frigate in a second, but ask you first of all for your reaction to the news out of lebanon that said the deputy leader was killed by the idf or we don't know if it was the idf specifically, because netanyahu gave instructions to the mossad to take care of hamas leaders the world over wherever they were. this would appear to be a big move by israel and one that may inflame tensions on the lebanese side of the border. what do you think?

>> john, this is a very big deal. deputy commander, he was especially designated terrorist by the united states with a $5 million bounty on his head and if i were any hamas leader, whether you are in turkey, beirut or elsewhere, i would not sleep well at night. after the 1972 summer olympics hostage taking and the killing of 11 israeli athletes in munich, the israelis took literally decades to hunt the perpetrators down around the world. they have every ride to do this, just as we had every right to hunt down the leadership of al-qaeda after the 9/11 strikes. so this is the type signal and the type operation and the type boldness i think we need to see because this sends the signal to

terrorists around the world that they are not going to continue to get away with attacks like october 7th, which hamas has promised and pledged to continue to do. this is how you take down their capabilities, and as long as they are worried about where they are going to sleep at night, they don't have time to plot and plan like this leader did in the run-up to october 7th. this is how you keep a lid on terrorism. keep a boot on their neck. >> john: and sinwar and daif of hamas continue to be location unknown. i want to move south to the red sea. iran has dispatched a frigate to the red sea in response to the u.s. taking out houthis and the boats they were in as they were trying to take over a commercial cargo ship. this ship is 56 years old, but does carry eight anti-ship cruise missiles and a number of torpedos as well.

can you give us an idea what threat this would represent to u.s. ships in the region? >> john, i'm really not that concerned about the capabilities of the ship. iranian navy is old, it's not very capable and i fear, though, this is a bit of a bluff on tehran's standpoint because the biden administration continues to broadcast their fear, the white house's fear of any type of escalation. that is interpreted by tehran as opportunity and every time that we establish some type of red line but then pull back from it, tehran is going to push further. this is a step in that direction. we have to sometimes escalate to deescalate. >> john: we'll keep watching this to see if the tensions increase or if they decrease but i imagine it's probably going to be the former rather than the latter. congressman michael waltz, thank you for joining us, appreciate

it. >> thanks, john. >> gillian: famous actor attacked by a group of bikers in the middle of hollywood boulevard. what sparked the broad daylight brawl coming up. >> john: deadly crash at one of japan's busiest airports. a passenger flight in flames. at least five are dead. and how in the world this could have happened. brushed away. even a little blurry vision can distort things. and something serious may be behind those itchy eyes. up to 50% of people with graves' could develop a different condition called thyroid eye disease, which should be treated by a different doctor. see an expert. find a t-e-d eye specialist at isitted.com hey you, with the small business...

>> john: documents revealing the identities of almost 200 people with ties to jeffrey epstein set to be unsealed this week, and reports say there could be some very familiar names on that list. eric shawn is live in new york city and has the latest.

>> you know, jeffrey epstein may have been a notorious sex offender but also accepted in the highest levels of the nation's financial and political circles. soon likely get a peek inside his world. identities of more than 170 people will be revealed in the wake of one of the lawsuits accusing epstein of sex trafficking under-aged girls. a new york federal judge has ruled no legal justification to keep the names of epstein's friends a secret. among them, apparent business associates, socialites, celebrities and other prominent people. reports former president bill clinton is mentioned 50 times in the papers. previously he was called john doe number 36 but no indication the sealed records contain any evidence of illegal conduct by him. you can see him shaking hands with epstein along with ghislaine maxwell, epstein's

sometimes girlfriend in 1993. one of his accusers, virginia, says she was sex trafficked by them when she was 16 years old after meeting ghislaine when she worked at the spa at mar-a-lago. the lawsuit against prince andrew claimed she was forced to have sex with him, he denied it and settled out of court two years ago. maxwell of course is in prison, sentenced to 20 years on sex trafficking charges. authorities said that as far as epstein was concerned, he committed suicide in jail. back to you. >> john: see if that continues to hold. eric, thank you. >> gillian: harvard university's president claudine gay has resigned her post amid more accusations of plagiarism. elise stefanik and others grilled her on antisemitism. her take on the breaking news
