8:02 pm
police say she opened fire with an ar 15 with palestine written on it. this happening at joel osteen's church on sunday. she was killed after those off-duty officers responded and engaged her in a shootout. 2 people were injured a 57-year-old man and her seven-year-old son who for some reason she brought to the church he was shot in the head at some point and he is not expected to survive. >> i want to ask for prayers for the seven-year-old kid who is fighting for his life. i think what we need to do for him is prey. he is still in critical condition. >> we are extremely thankful for the quick response of the officers working security at the church at the time that they engage the shooter. all of us would agree if it weren't for them the number of casualties and victims would have been much higher. >> and as you were saying it's unclear how a woman with standard history of mental health issues in a rap sheet was able to get her hands on a rifle they're looking into it
8:03 pm
but criminals are notorious for not following laws if they are looking to take lives. >> we will talk about the criminal aspect but we are free and a member of the mega church, thank you for coming on. i know you have been at this church for the better part of 20 years or more brazier kids there.you were at a service earlier in the day yesterday. what you think about the shooting? which is you think when you heard about it? >> it's unbelievable. i have been a member of lakewood for 20 years and my children have been raised at lakewood and they served in the kids ministry and i was a prayer partner for years. this is a sad occasion our hearts are heavy but to imagine that like any other tragic
8:04 pm
--tragedy that shakes our community we will never be the same we are strong body of believers. we are praying for the family but what saddens me the most. she if she would have had some help or we could have reached out to her or someone at lakewood could have helped her it would've been a different outcome. to make you talk about the security and they checked the bag and the gun going in but did not look inside. you said security was always tight i'm wondering why they didn't check the bag at this time. what was your thought on how the gun got inside? >> i have no idea but i will cheyer that i was at the 8:30 am service and i frequently 8:30 am and 11 am service and there is security. they checked bags before you enter the church but what is noted what we should note is
8:05 pm
that the 2 pm spanish service so maybe there was different constraints around people entering but security is always there at the doors. they are friendly but they definitely check bags. >> they were talking about the fact because of the security guards, inside, who happened to see her this could have been so much more horrendous joel osteen sent this quoting we may not understand the reasons behind such senseless acts of violence we find comfort in knowing god is in control in his love knows no bounds and how do you think about that? >> this is not the first time they have been pulled together.
8:06 pm
the houston community and other areas we all his bond together in tough prices so like anything else we trust and believe god and stand in faith. i have my prayers are out for the families that have been affected but a bigger prayer for me is that we don't allow this senseless crime to deter people from going to church and gathering because it could happen on in the street corner or school. we have to be vigilant, keep our eyes and head on a swivel. >> it's great for you to come on. your prayers are warranted. we appreciate your time. certainly thank you. stream police officers in houston, there is a manhunt for a cop killer in tennessee and authorities looking for two
8:07 pm
suspects who badly beat new york police officers in a full-blown epidemic of anti-cop sentiment.the numbers on the increasing violence against police pretty good evening. >> is disturbing attacks on officers are surging and the trends saw shows no signs of slowing down this officer was slashed by a machete welding suspect are becoming more common according to nypd injuries from assaults on officers has increased 20 percent from 2021 to 2022 and data from the first recorders of 2023 is any indication these attacks are set to shatter records. >> the freaking frenzy feeding frenzy against police officers with the death of george floyd cops were demonized and new york city and it is the emergence of these district
8:08 pm
attorneys. >> progressive manhattan da said he does not tolerate attacks on officers he has charged a 15-year-old from venezuela charged with shooting officers and a tourist in times square as an adult underscoring the danger the officers are shooting a 34-year-old man was killed during a rush hour shooting inside a bronx subway station and several others were wounded including a 14-year-old girl 15-year-old boy. the reward leading to the arrest of 42-year-old heart has climbed to $100,000 and heart is expected to shooting and killing a 43-year-old sheriff deputy and injuring another 22-year-old deputy during a traffic stop thursday night in tennessee. more of what officials are calling a full-blown epidemic of anti-police sentiment. >> let's bring in a former fbi special agent and fox news
8:09 pm
contributor nicole parker. i want to go back to lakewood church the mega church in houston if the officers working security were not in that hallway at the time people know this church attracts thousands of people this could have been a big tragic incident. >> you are right this is a world famous church it seats 16 to 17,000 individuals and everyone is very familiar with joel osteen nationwide and worldwide this is not a coincidence this individual chose this church but our honor and respect need to go to law enforcement.they save countless lives we will never know how many people could have been killed on sunday but thankfully many were protected and there is a seven-year-old fighting for their life or the law enforcement stepped in and went up against someone who had a rifle and they did the best
8:10 pm
they could and neutralize the threat. >> the woman that was shot police say she had some anti-semitic writings and a marriage involved with some in-laws she had a palestine sticker on the gun.was this in your opinion targeted and if it was, why do you have anti-semitic writings and you are targeting a christian church? >> sometimes it appears a certain audience may be targeted but law enforcement gets in there and discovers they might have might not have been the actual motive or precipitating stressor. for this incident it's becoming clear this individual had a very strong history of criminal acts a criminal history and mental health history. her former mother-in-law i believe the grandmother of the child who is in the hospital posted to social media and said
8:11 pm
she had mental illness. she was with schizophrenia as they wish child protection services had stepped in and taken the child out of her custody so this would not have occurred but there are many individuals in this country who suffer from mental illness and they don't go shoot churches and cause violence rate in the other part is convicted felons and possessions of firearms those things need to be charged and as an fbi agent we make sure that is a way to take guns off the streets and out of the hands of repeat offenders. >> we don't have a lot of time but the new york post writes this. those migrants are kicked and stomped the new york city police officers they are still on the run but the new york post said assaults on nypd escalate to record-breaking
8:12 pm
totals and full-blown epidemic the number of cops hurt by suspects surged 20 percent 2022. uniformed officers suffering injuries and attacks compared to 3920 21 but law enforcement nightmare grew worse last year for a thousand plus cops hurt by suspects in the first nine months of 2023. the cops don't get support from the prosecutors we wonder why no one wants to be a cop. >> we must back the blue this is unacceptable. law enforcement deserves to be respected and they are in a position where they feel like they can't defend themselves because of this defend the police movement if i defend myself i could go to jail and that's not okay. >> nicole, great to have you on as always. >> bad news keeps on coming for president biden a vast majority of americans believe he is simply too old to serve a second tere are in dc with the
8:13 pm
latest numbers on the effort to stop the bleeding. >> the old saying goes the numbers don't lie and in this instance they reveal a damning reality for the current president the latest poll show 1/4 of those surveyed think mr. biden is too old to serve 2 terms as nine times more than those you think the same of former president trump of 59 percent think neither should have another go at it while extending 9/10 americans have concerns about biden's ability to serve another turn and 7/10 democrats think so. but at the white house like leslie nielsen in the movie the naked gun they are telling the american people there is nothing to see here.
8:14 pm
>> president biden does more in one hour than most people do in a day.his age is an incredible asset and he proves it every day. so if that's what they believe but on capitol hill unless ? assessment the special counsel read on mr. biden. >> we have a lot of questions about the report beyond the fact he stated the obvious. >> and there is growing pressure tonight on the special counsel to release the transcripts of the presidents interviews with investigators thinking it would either corroborate or refute the special counsel assessment for the president's failing memory. >> kevin thank you. >> the common sense department was fascinated to learn the biden campaign not only joined
8:15 pm
tiktok even posting a joe biden super bowl q&a on tiktok.did you see it? maybe you are among the 4 million employees banned from using tiktok on all government devices put into place by the new executive tiktok joe biden the president signed that law because of national security concerns things like foreign adversaries stealing private information and using it for nefarious deeds a few months back biden's fbi director sitting next to the homeland security director warned congress that one of law enforcement's biggest worries is china using tiktok to steal sensitive information about us citizens and when abc news says 86 percent of americans think biden is too old to serve
8:16 pm
another term national security can weight the president needs young voters who happen to be on a app called tiktok. the irony is plentiful the president is trying to combat his age by appearing hip to young people the common sense is displaying cruel when the goal for biden is to slow down the clock and all he hears is tiktok tiktok tiktok. let's bring in the former white house strategic communications director and president lee carter. what do you think about joe biden joining tiktok? >> it's a really desperate last ditch effort to try to get a new voter base there's no way around that narrative is awkward to rog watch him try to engage needless to say it's not something he should be doing as president of the united states you just mention the band that he signed a year ago for federal employees and way to
8:17 pm
lead by example if your employees are not on this app why are you and there is no other way to put it other than the fact that he is losing voters and he is trying to get the young audience to favor him by going on this app. >> i know you analyze members a lot and the poll is not good news for biden. biden is too old to serve and another term and 86 percent agree once the last time you saw 86 percent of americans agree on anything? >> i can't remember actually. this is bad news for biden. it was bad before when he was that 70 percent of americans are concerned about his age and now 86 percent and 91 percent of independent voters he has a problem on his hands and it is clear that he knows it and he
8:18 pm
is trying to address at his press conference last week was a disaster and did nothing to help them combat the idea that he was in a sharp as he needs to be in his efforts at tiktok the content was somewhat clever 4 and a half million people viewed it but it's not safe enough for government employees to have on their devices why is that safe enough for his campaign? i think it's really a double standard and hypocritical. >> so james carville said this about the president. >> don't accept insuperable interview. you are three points down and the television audience, not even close and you get a chance to do an interview on that day and you don't do it, that's the sign that your staff doesn't
8:19 pm
have much confidence. >> when you turn down tens of millions of dollars in free advertising years staff is not confident. >> when i worked at the trump white house we had a barstool interview with president trump that went viral and when you ask members of the white house why they don't want to do this interview for the super bowl they don't have an answer. they are nervous to put him out there on an unscripted casual style interview that hundred million americans could have seen but sure tiktok got you for a millionaire who knows how many of those are chinese but 4 million saw that tak i don't ha one but the super bowl interview that's a big one they speak for themselves. >> harris had put me in coach.
8:20 pm
she said she is ready to serve as biden faces age scrutiny. i ready to serve she responded bluntly everyone who sees her on the job she walks away fully aware of the capacity to lead. vestal at the poll shows. >> i am sure she feels ready and she has been ready but the problem is the american people don't want her to 30 percent of americans approve of her of vice president and if you are want her to be the presidents of this is an issue she is going to address but i would hope that she feels ready herself as part of the job. >> thank you both greatly appreciated and coming up we will play video of a mom confronting los angeles county district attorney about policies that she believes led to the death of her son. it's compelling and it is worth your time and later on the shot
