2:16 am
would like to say is we have a mayor that voted to g fund of the police. we are a thousand police short in the city of atlanta. we have ada currently prosecuting president trump for a phone call while she has 200 murders on backup of this issue is peeling the band-aid off. we have several thousand homeless people walking the streets taking over houses in many instances like that sweet lady needs a house that she has a family i would not characterize most of this is that situation we have criminals going into houses and my question to you is, where is the governor of the state of georgia? he is in texas doing photo ops
2:17 am
on the southern border he should be paying close attention to this because this is his capital city this is one of the reasons we are trying to move buckhead out of atlanta and i call on governor kim, speaker burns and the lieutenant governor bert jones to get their rear ends in gear because this is a catastrophic problem in the great city of atlanta. >> 1000 police officers in short and a distracted ga and local leaders leads to issues like this and there were 4 people who were recently arrested after federal agents got involved because they turned a beautiful home into a strip club and they had a horse that was walking up and down streets stolen cars, weapons and credit cards in the story that is more infuriating there is a u.s. army lieutenant colonel who was away on active duty and when she returned to her house, there was a squatter living there. she went to the cops and they said that they couldn't do anything she had to jump through these hoops to get this
2:18 am
person who entered her home to leave so what is the solution to this? >> we reached out to her. can you imagine you go serve your country and put your life on the line and come home to lawlessness and a criminal paradise and if the mayor isn't doing the job, the da is not doing the job governor kemp removed a sheriff for reckless negligence he should remove willis he should have a sit down with mayor dickens he should get back to georgia and focus on this and cooperate with federal agents but this is not a civil matter these people are illegally operating in the atlanta police department had better get this fixed because people are leaving atlanta in droves and it's very sad when we reach out to this army veteran we are going to try to help them get back into their home.
2:19 am
>> you are a mover. you get things done on issues that matter and i remember last year we saw videos of smash and grabs and now people are straight up stealing homes and that's why jones is in atlanta he is talking to a victim of this and a guy who is installing home protection against squatters that will be on fox and friends as how big of a problem this is. >> i just want to warn people if you look at what happened in south africa they start with smash and grabs and burglaries and they break into cars and they start shooting people and start invading your home and that's what they are doing in atlanta these democratic run
2:20 am
cities are being allowed to operate in georgia we have a republican governor he'd better wake up and help us fix this problem. as a call to action. >> thanks for joining us. >> embracing for another fast-moving storm after an atmospheric river devastated the west coast the storm is heading to las vegas in time for the super bowl the city is expected to experience heavy rain as crowds begin to arrive you can see an avalanche happened 35 miles from vegas. >> they have caucuses and primaries and the weather and super bowl. a lot is happening in vegas. >> the next forecasts will focus on vegas but if there's any good news that atmospheric river will not be an issue we have scattered showers and thunderstorms for southern california a couple of tornado storms there is los angeles down towards san diego we are not out of the woods in terms of rain but we will not get a significant firehose of moisture look at the top

>> chicago shelling out 18 million taxpayer dollars to feed illegal migrants and the massive migrant isis inspired one congressional candidate to fight for better border security and the needs of his potential constituents. that candidate just got back from eagle pass. darren, thanks for being here. what does it say when you, a kennedy for congress makes it down to the border on his own
2:28 am
time with the president of the united states who caused this crisis just won't go. >> it's a shame in a travesty. let's call it out for what it is. this is not rocket science this is a crisis of willpower. now is the time for action we need to impeach mayorkas and fire every career politician that is selling us out. >> let's get to the major city in your state chicago spending 18 million taxpayer dollars to feed illegal migrants. how does that play with the illinois voter who in many instances is working two or three jobs and struggling to
2:29 am
feed his or her own family and joe biden's american now? >> it doesn't sell very well i have served one term as a representative and senator i was a republican nominee for governor in 2022 and i will tell you our friends in chicago are getting fed up with this. brandon johnson spent a week at a hospital two weeks ago because of stress because the pressure is real. securing our border is straightforward. we need to finish the trump border wall enforce the laws and dismantle the illegal entry and these cartels pushing these people and in chicago the fentanyl problem we need to designate them for what they are, terrorist organizations and our larger cities in the united states especially chicago are feeling it. >> how would you be different than the elected leaders we currently have in congress and would you have voted for the border bill we talked about this week?
2:30 am
>> this is a disaster what's going on. absolutely not. i will take care of the situation i will fight for what is right and unlike my opponent i won't spend 10 years in congress with nothing to show for it except for voting for amnesty for millions of illegals. we need fighters i have brought that to illinois i sued our governor in 2020 and i won that lawsuit over mandates that we need fighters. i will educate the voters of america and they will rise up and start electing politicians and statesmen who will stand up and fight for them and we will get this country turned around. >> we need people who get things done. keep us posted. thanks for your time. >> because of this crisis a gang of illegal immigrants have been terrorizing new york city are a group of criminals using hackers to tap into private bank accounts from stolen phones police saying they're getting into the then low accounts and making purchases
2:31 am
with that money. they will clear out the accounts. so not only are these people stealing phones later the victims find out their money has been stolen from their bank account how are these people doing this? >> outrageous this is only happening because of the border crisis it's happening because migrants are pouring into cities around our country and here is how the sophisticated criminal gang is terrorizing people.first of all the ringleader sends out a text message on whatsapp and that's where they find a mobile target they have identified and a moped driver is paid 100 bucks and another migrant a mobile phone snatcher will get
2:32 am
$300-$600 per stolen phone. that is handed off to a hacker who breaks into the phone into those payment apps and they siphon the cash out of the victim's bank accounts and credit cards with these payment apps and if you thought that wasn't bad enough the migrant criminal says the stolen phone out of the country to sell on the black market. it is absolutely bananas and they have run amok with this technology crime going on on the streets. >> these gangs are facing 62 grand larceny charges and are implicated in dozens of attacks dating back to last november a couple of people do this at the same time there is a moped driver making $100 a day on the
2:33 am
back of the moped there's a guy he was supposed to snatch the phone and that person can make up to $600 it can be lucrative to do these and these people are claiming asylum and screaming and getting away with it. they are getting out with no bail their being released and they are out doing this again in 24 hours. there are steps you can take if you go to the cyber guide.com newsletter for free we will show you how to do this an update to the latest iphone software and turn on a feature called stolen device protection. this can prevent the hacker from getting in as easily and it will create a stronger password and passcode to unlock your phone and keep your phone put away when you are out in sketchy places. how sad is it we have to say that put put your phone away in your pocket if you are not at a mall if you're out on the streets put it away. cyber guide.com is where we have these instructions for various payment apps and how to tighten those up. it's terrible where we are.
2:34 am

2:43 am
>> these are as clear as we can make them we spent an entire day going on the south side of chicago and the resounding responses black americans are fed up with joe biden they feel as if the campaign made a lot of promises they feel used for their votes. >> >> statement biden is a racist. >> anyway i will stick with the business side of that because it's about the economy were you better off under the administration economically they're going to try to sell that message but you can see the administration is they have a lot to talk about today. >> the elites are crushing it. speaking of which america's

2:45 am
are not investing in the beef and cattle farms and biden's policies are hurting america's cattle such as myself they are investing making sure we have the tools invested and everyone stacked up. we have bill gates say eat fake meat and we have the un coming out not to support beef producers that eat less beef we need to be supporting america's cattle farmers and last night i was at the cattle market in my local township in virginia a good market i would like to add and i saw that some of the stalls were empty and during this time generally we see the cattle markets are full of livestock and we see some empty stalls and there we are not producing the beef that we used to do and i have been farming
2:46 am
41 years and i am telling you this is a time when we should be investing in america's cattle and we are not doing it in this administration is not paying attention to what's going on in the fact that the cattle count is down so low since 1951 here in the united states instead of making progress >> how bad will this get for the average american family will enforce the average american family to cut back or eliminate entirely or do you think that's the goal of the biden administration? soon if that is right americans are going to pay the price at their local grocery store so we're saying such a steep.
2:47 am
[indiscernible] and us because we are not supporting these cattlemen such as myself the administration is not paying attention this is a national crisis and this administration has turned a blind eye and a deaf ear to something that needs immediate attention and what you said will be going to sample food how about coming out as seeing what's going on on someone's beef farm today that's why the president should be doing and he is losing black supporters and folks like myself supported this guy we are not at the table on very important policy decisions to make a difference we should be at the table while those policies are being discussed and instead we are being told after the fact this is how
2:48 am
these policies will affect us that's what's wrong and we need to loot new leadership and a new direction and someone all-inclusive to make sure that farmers like myself have a voice in the future of farming. >> is interesting to see if he will do something about this. it's an election year if he does something to change his policies. thanks for getting up with us. we appreciate it. a fox news alert right now airstrikes taking out a high-ranking commander involved in a drone attack that killed three american soldiers. >> but first a look at what is coming up on fox and friends. >> coming up on fox and friends in exactly 12 minutes and three seconds, illegal strip clubs and terrorized neighborhoods we tell you about the squatters taking over a thousand houses in atlanta and this morning lawrence jones is there taking

2:56 am
mike waltz joins us now. congressman, good morning to you. what do you think about this strike and where we are in our fight against iran? >> i'm glad to see the strike happened. i wish the strike had handsome time ago somewhere in between the dozens and dozens of attacks on our forces. but, again, it is still coming from a flawed approach from the administration in iraq and not iranian assets in iraq. we are still not going after the irgc operatives and commanders who resourced these militias. they trained them. they operate alongside with them. they guide them. they advise them. those are the ones that we have to be taking down. including soleimani successor chany is the irgc quds force is
2:57 am
he operating all over the middle east and doing what soleimani did and orchestrating these attacks. those are the things, operatives iran cares about. and that is what will deterrence. iran will trade munitions all day long for american casualties. i just don't think it's going to work. >> todd: to that point, congressman, you focused on the who. i want to focus on the when. if we know who these people are, whether the individuals you are speaking about or the individuals we killed, why don't we go after them before they kill americans? >> >> well, ostensibly this commander was plotting even more attacks on the united states. but, yeah, that's my point. we should have done this a long time ago. before they launched all of these attacks. but, at the end of the day, guys. iran doesn't care about these militias or even their senior commanders. now, it may degrade their
2:58 am
ability to attack us again for a while, but at the end of the day, in order to restore some semblance of deterrence you have to go after things iran cares about. iran cares about its intelligence operatives. and its irgc commanders, not these iraqi militias or yemeni militias or ismg ever even the hezbollah operatives that israel is attacking. that is not what is going to stop iran. secondarily, we passed a bill in the house of representatives that would put secondary sanctions on the chinese buyers, shippers, refineries that are buying iranian oil. we have to dry up the cash or ultimately they are going to continue not only to flood it towards these terrorist groups, they are sending weapons, missiles, drones into russia as well. so we are fighting against ourselves on all fronts. >> carley: well, congressman, on
2:59 am
that exact topic, we are just learning that chinese president xi jinping and vladimir putin had a phone call today. no details on what they spoke about have been released just yet. but this is another example of our enemies becoming closer and closer with each passing month. what's your reaction to that, this phone call that just took place? >> well, this is not limits partnership that we should be incredibly concerned about. if you'll remember when xi went and met putin personally, he stated -- and i there this was for us and the whole world to hear, that this is xi to putin. this is a once in a generation opportunity to turn the current world order led by western democracies in the united states upside down. and i think they meant during this biden administration. and it is no surprise that our -- all of our adversaries are on the march, if you just
3:00 am
