11:00 am
11:01 am
public safety and crime reduction is a top priority for my administration and for me and has been for a long time back when i was chairman of judiciary committee. you know, since day one my administration has been working with law enforcement, mayors and community leaders to do what we know works to keep people and communities safe. as was referenced during the pandemic, states and cities saw violent crime rising and their budgets were strained as they faced deep cuts in law enforcement and public safety. but we stepped up. thanks to my american rescue
11:02 am
plan which i might note not a single person on the other team voted for, we provided $350 billion, $350 billion that was available to deal with these issues. you know, and the fact is that we find ourselves could use this money to keep law enforcement on the beat, communities safe from violence. invested $15 billion, $15 billion to make their communities safer and we added billions more in grants to help. justice department invested in law enforcement and community violence corruption programs because the american rescue plan, we have the largest federal investment of fighting crime and preventing violent crime any time in our history. and that's a big deal. you know, we know being in law enforcement is harder than ever but -- and we expect you to be everything to everybody. that's why we have invested in
11:03 am
more crisis responders who work alongside police officers as chief said, mental health and social workers respond to nonviolent crimes as well. more investment in recruiting, retaining and training officers. more investments in violence prevention to get guns off the street. on top of that, hiring more u.s. attorneys, recruiting more u.s. marshals and investing more in technology and training to clear the court backlog, solve murders and deal with apprehending violent fugitives. and we also are working hard to ensure bonds of trust between officers and the people you all serve. my budget calls for more officers in the street, trained in community policing, walking a beat, working hard hand-in-hand with community leaders and partners and public, to gain public trust and advance public safety. chiefs in this room know when their communities trust the police we can solve a hell of a lot more crimes a hell of a lot faster.
11:04 am
that's why i signed the historic executive order for executive and accountable community policing and very effective so far. you know, and i'm going to continue to call on congress to pass the george floyd policing and justice and policing act so we can make police reform the law of the land. we also made historic investments improving strategies to interrupt and prevent crime and violence in the first place. these programs used trusted messages, including people who are in the neighborhood, people who have been incarcerated and released now. people who have been through it, people who know what they are talking about. and we have a track record reducing violent crime as a consequence of that by 30 to 60% for those programs exist. and finally, my plan goes after the scourge of gun violence in america. i've taken more executive actions to stop the flow of illegal guns and any other administration in history. and we beat the nra when i signed the most significant gun
11:05 am
safety law in nearly 30 years. we are going to finish the job. ban assault weapons and high capacity magazines next time around because it has to be done. i formed the first ever white house office of gun violence prevention and i thank vice president harris for overseeing this important effort. let me close with this. our plan's working. we still have much more to do as everyone at this table knows and that's why we are here today. my administration is going to choose progress over politics and communities across the country are safer as a result of that policy. there is no greater responsibility to ensure the safety of families, children, communities and our nation and with that, turn us over to my domestic policy adviser and get this discussion going, ok? thank you. [applause] >> thank you. i would like to invite the
11:06 am
press to exit. >> mr. president, how did your physical go this morning? >> your physical, sir. >> how did your physical go?
11:07 am
>> sandra: so the president wraps his remarks on crime without a single mention of the growing immigrant crime crisis happening in this country right now. not a mention of laken riley, 22 years old, who was just violently killed on her college campus in georgia. not a mention of the minor who was just brutally assaulted in virginia by someone here illegally, john. that is certainly part of the crime crisis that he was attempting to address. >> john: it is, but it goes well beyond that. he says crime is going down across the country. tell that to the families of mike gill and alberto vasquez killed in the carjacking spree in d.c. a few weeks ago, the mother of audrey cunningham, 11-year-old, at the hands of someone on the property.
11:08 am
it's difficult to convince americans they are safe or becoming safer when they do not feel safe. >> sandra: and tell that to the rosenberg family, lost their son in 2010, killed by an illegal immigrant, driving his car illegally, drove over their son in an attempt to drive away. meanwhile, kerri kupec urbahn, thank you for joining us. that was difficult, you know, for what is happening in this country right now, and what is a reality for so many, we have been talking to parents who have kids on college campuses who are frightened this could happen to their son or daughter but that was not addressed. >> if you really want to know how the biden administration feels about violent crime and their policy about police, come to washington, d.c. and here is why. washington, d.c. is unique. the only area in the country
11:09 am
where the federal government also operates as local law enforcement and yet 2023, last year, was the deadliest year in washington, d.c. history and at least over two decades. secondly, in 2022, biden's doj declined to prosecute 67% of people arrested. we got an email, sandra, at fox news recently from the capitol police, because we are on the hill, we are in a building with other news organizations and the message from the police was, read directly from it, to drive in the center lane in general to deter carjackers. also avoid driving alone, especially at night. this is washington, and again, the federal government operates as local law enforcement in washington so it really gives you insight into joe biden's thinking about law and policing. >> john: i spent a lot of time like you kerri living here in washington, d.c. and up until very recently, you know, there were certain areas that you
11:10 am
needed to be careful in and times of day you needed to be careful, i'm looking over my shoulder in the middle of the day these days, you never know where it's going to come from. in response to laken riley's murder, the mayor of athens held a briefing this morning. watch what happened during that briefing. >> here in clark county. >> you're fired, you're fired. you need to go, sir. we don't want to hear from you no more. you are not defending us. you are not upholding your oath of office, sir. you are lawless. you are equivocal. >> if nonmembers of the press. >> i'm a press member, too. we the people, we created this government and we pay your salary. you do what we want you to do. not what you want to do. that's the first problem with this lawlessness in this
11:11 am
country. you are not upholding -- >> john: so, first rule when you are an elected official, if you are giving a press conference and there are a number of concerned members of your citizenry who are there and they are upset, don't tell them to leave. >> that's right. and you know, john, one thing that struck me from the president's speech and i think it's something people often gloss over. i remember delving into this myself when i ran communications for doj and we would talk about the grant money that doj put out, for policing and law enforcement initiatives and all of these things. is that if you actually do the math, what joe biden announced today basically amounts to 1 or 2 police officers here or there across the country. it's actually not that much, and anyone can do the math, read the numbers and it's clear. >> sandra: play this out as well, you mention the messaging. a former biden communications director this morning sounding
11:12 am
the alarm, telling this administration start taking this seriously. >> i think it's smart for democrats to be more aggressive on it. people are feeling -- i don't subscribe to the trump vision of america as a decaying waste land where packs of people are running wild committing crime, but it is true that people across the country, particularly in cities, are concerned about crime. >> sandra: while slamming the previous administration noting oh, yeah, people don't really feel safe in this environment right now. >> but that's the question. and i think that's -- i think that's what it comes down to. you talk to -- we talk to our family and friends, people don't feel safe and a reason for that. between the carjackings in d.c., the migrant issue, homelessness, it's not -- come to washington, d.c. and you are afraid walking around the corner to get your parked car. >> sandra: you feel it here in
11:13 am
new york city and people at home probably feel it in their own towns. >> john: south carolina congresswoman nancy mace, and kate says not like there are packs of individuals running around committing crimes. how many department stores have we seen exactly that same, that thing happen? how many convenience stores have we seen that happen. that bakery in los angeles in compton. it happened to the owner of that bakery as well. so, it is happening. but democrats want to say it's not happening. >> right. just like the border crisis, they want to say it's not happening but in blue states and in blue cities they let rapists and murderers and thieves out without bond, without bail, and it sounds like joe biden just today, just in time for an election year has decided that defunding the police is a bad idea in an election year and not only that, but he gave a speech right in the middle of his own
11:14 am
son's testimony and deposition today to distract from our investigation into joe biden, his family and all of their corruption. >> sandra: you know, i'm just looking at the list of participants in that room and the cities from which they come, philadelphia, buffalo, miami, milwaukee, chicago, i mean -- congresswoman, i don't know who he thought his audience was by standing up and touting, maurts, rapes, aggravated assaults dropped sharply without context or time frame, that's a brutal message to people when they are saying loudly they don't like the crime on the rise in their cities. >> they are saying it pretty loudly and seeing it loudly. we know that your last guest said, d.c., for example, had the most violent year yet inside of 20 years. that is the math. everyone knows when you go to new york, chicago, san francisco, major blue cities, it's more violent than it ever
11:15 am
has been and the first thing that joe biden should do is stop talking about crime and start working to fix it and to do that, number one, shut down the border. he could do that today. we just -- we hear constantly about laken riley. it is a tragic situation in georgia. people are angry about it. but there are laken rileys in every city across the country. in fact, in south carolina, not far in upstate of south carolina, maddy heinz was a 4-year-old girl murdered by an illegally alien that joe biden let in after donald trump deported him. i mean, this is going on across the country, crime everywhere and up by huge margins. >> john: you mentioned we keep hearing about laken riley but the one person who has not mentioned her name is the president of the united states, even during that address he just made on trying to reduce crime in this country. is that, you believe, because the murder of laken riley for this president is an
11:16 am
inconvenient truth? >> absolutely. i want to hear him say her name. i'm quite shocked he did not say laken riley's name. what happened to her is horrific, it is every parents' worst nightmare, if you have a kid in college right now. but we have heard about these stories for years and it has only gotten worse under his leadership as president of the united states and he fails to recognize that we have a huge problem in this country. >> congresswoman, appreciate you joining us through this breaking news this hour, thank you. >> john: thank you, congresswoman. >> thank you. >> sandra: as we have been talking about, these are very real life situations and something familiar to too many american families right now, the consequences of the unlawfulness happening at our border. just this week, four illegal immigrants accused of separate violent crimes from the murder of that 22-year-old nursing student in georgia to the murder of a 2-year-old in maryland. our next guest knows this pain
11:17 am
all too well. his son, drew, was killed by an illegal immigrant in an motorcycle crash in 2010. dan rosenberg has now become an advocate for victims of illegal alien crime. we are incredibly sorry for your family's loss and you live with that every single day. what is your reaction, sir, to the president still not even mentioning the death of that 22-year-old university student. >> i really have no expectation he will ever say anything right about anything. so it doesn't surprise me at all. i don't know if he's aware this happened. certainly if he watches the liberal news media he has no idea because they are barely covering it and what they do, they are lying about. so -- so that doesn't bother me one bit. i just want to see this guy go. he should be -- put it this way. they talk about impeaching him,
11:18 am
no. it's treason at this point. he is -- he is -- he is aiding and abetting. >> sandra: we just had a picture of your son on the screen, 25 years old. i know you felt compelled to respond when you heard a democratic lawmaker from california of all places that's dealing with a lot of crime, katie porter, say this about the heinous murder of that 22-year-old girl. listen. >> whenever we are dealing with violent crime there is a sense of outrage. the important thing to focus on is any one instance shouldn't shape our overall immigration policy which has so many different facets. >> sandra: well, so this just this one instance, she says. your reaction. >> well, obviously -- first of all, she's vile and disgusting, to put it mildly. but obviously she has no idea that laken riley is not the first american killed by an
11:19 am
illegal alien. we are talking about tens of thousands. this is a woman that's been five years in congress, she's now running for the senate and she's unaware of how much illegal alien crime there is? it's inexcuseable. >> sandra: i want to make sure we get the full story here, we are crunched for time. what happened to your son? >> ok, my son was on his way home from law school and an illegal alien tried to make a last second left hand turn, collided with him and then trying to flee he drove back and forth over his body three times, and you know, drew was, you know, dead at the scene. had he not tried to flee, my son would have walked away with a couple of cuts and bruises. but when you allow people in the country illegally and they do something bad, they are not going to stick around most of the time. so -- you know, and that story,
11:20 am
i could repeat that story with literally thousands of other people. so -- it's just -- shouldn't be a shock to this woman that people are upset over this. >> sandra: people hear you, don, and i know that you are out there and you are telling your story and you have been and you are trying to get your message across and we are about to hear this white house press briefing moments from now. see if they say anything then. don, thank you, and deepest apologies for your family and all that you've been through. >> thank you, sandra. appreciate it. >> john: just 24 hours from now, president biden will head to brownsville, texas, a sector that has minimal illegal immigrant activity according to new data. reaction from brandon judd coming up. >> sandra: anti-israel protestors violently shut down an event at u.c. berkeley. is the university doing enough to protect its jewish students? we will speak to two of them next. ♪

>> john: just 24 hours from now, president biden will head south to brownsville, texas, but in that sector illegal immigrant activity has slowed down, even as border crossings as a whole are still high. brandon judd, from eagle pass texas, where former president trump will be visiting tomorrow. presidential visits in a second, but illegal immigration is top of agenda of voters like in south carolina, new hampshire and iowa, and the first time ever a monmouth poll has found majority of americans support building a wall. that, brandon, is quite a turn around.
11:26 am
>> it is. and it's very important that people understand exactly what the walls do, how they work. right where i'm at, this was the epicenter of all of the illegal immigration. i'm sorry, the main portion of the illegal immigration for the last two years. ever since these containers were put up, razor wire put up, we have had next to no crossings in this specific area and what that has done is it has allowed us to deploy our resources to more important areas to go after the got-aways. that's how important walls are. that's how they work, that allows us to dictate where illegal border crossings take place and i'm so happy that the american public is finally understanding the importance of the infrastructure we need to control the border and keep american lives safe. >> john: let me put up a map where the president is going to be versus the former president, the president in brownsville, texas, in the rio grande valley
11:27 am
sector. and donald trump to del rio sector. you indicated cross border traffic in eagle pass is also way down? >> it is. and it's way down simply because of what's happening here. and again, this shows that the cartels understand and recognize all of the ebb and flow in what the politics are in the united states. they also understand the operations that are going up and when that happens, they move their traffic and that's why it's so important that we expand upon what we are doing, what is working in one specific area and when joe biden goes out to brownsville, he's not going to see anything. he's not going to be able to determine what he needs to do to better control the situation and that's why border patrol agents, we are upset at what he's doing. >> john: yeah, when you take a look at what's going on there, the del rio sector with the containers, concertina wire,
11:28 am
fencing, all of that, it has changed the entire landscape of the u.s. side of the rio grande valley but i guess to some degree it's working because a lot of that cross border traffic is now moving to the west. in terms of how to address this in the near term and the long-term, karine jean-pierre was asked about this the other day at the white house briefing and she leaned on congress to come up with a fix. listen here. >> we believe in order to deal with what's happening at the border you need a legislative solution. the bottom line is we don't believe that an executive action would amount to what this legislation, this bipartisan legislation would have been able to do if it was enacted into law. >> john: all right, she says you can't do it with executive action. let's take a look at whether or not that's effective. under biden, since he became president, 730,032,800 people have crossed the border. in the same time period, trump
11:29 am
administration, president trump took executive action and less than a third of that number of people crossed the border in the same time period. so, let me ask you this question, brandon. if you were to give president biden a list of things that you believe he could do by executive order to address the border situation, what would that list include? >> so john, i've already done that through secretary mayorkas. early in the administration i met with him and told him all he needs to do is surge asylum officer to the border, take the first people that come in, asylum claim is heard immediately, let them appeal the asylum claim because they have the right, have that appeal immediate and then deport them. if he were to do that, we would cut down by 65% of the people that are crossing the borders illegally. once you cut that down, then you can deal with the family units,
11:30 am
deal with the single -- with the unaccompanied children. there are simple actions that he can take that would stop this crisis right now. and by the way, john, that fits in his parameters. that's not bringing back remain in mexico. he said he wants humane. that would be humane if followed in our laws. >> john: all right. quick, just before we let you go, seconds left here. what about reinstating remain in mexico? a lot of people didn't like it but it was unbelievably effective. >> that is the ultimate solution. what we have to do. we have to stop the catch and release. once we stop that, all this illegal immigration stops. remain in mexico was extremely effective. the single best policy i've seen in my 25-year career. >> john: brandon judd, national border patrol council, good to catch up with you. touch base with you after the former president's visit tomorrow. thanks. >> sandra: fox news alert, john, apparently in that roundtable discussion on crime a few moments ago at the white house,
11:31 am
the president joked about the annual physical that he left for today, that was that moment screen right. he joked in the room they think i look too long and there's nothing different than last year. and weighed in on mcconnell stepping down. we'll have more on that for you as we await the white house press briefing screen left moments from now. >> john: president biden is dismissing concerns about crime. as more americans than ever say it's a serious concern. robert wolf and steve moore join us next on that. he thinks his flaky, red patches are all people see. otezla is the #1 prescribed pill to treat plaque psoriasis. it can help you get clearer skin. don't use otezla if you're allergic to it. serious allergic reactions can happen. otezla may cause severe diarrhea, nausea, or vomiting. some people taking otezla had depression, suicidal thoughts, or weight loss. upper respiratory tract infection and headache may occur. live in the moment. ask your doctor about otezla.

11:35 am
>> john: in a shocking display of brutality, the taliban executed a man in front of thousands at a sports stadium. the third killing in less than a week. gillian turner, the taliban back to its bad old ways. how is the biden administration reacting to it.
11:36 am
>> state department is talking about it, it appears the group is emboldened by the tight grip on power in afghanistan. what happened monday, thousands of people flocked to the stadium you mentioned to view the taliban's third public execution in five days. an afghan man convicted of murder was shot five times according to a witness with a rifle by the brother of his alleged victim. >> we condemn the public executions. it's another sign of the brutality that the afghan government shows to its own people. >> secretary of state antony blinken yesterday condemned the taliban oppression of women in particular. >> they continue to limit the movement of women and girls outside their homes and persecute those who speak up or speak out. >> despite promises to rule more moderately, they have been relying on brutality since they regained power in august of
11:37 am
2021, after president biden withdrew u.s. forces. blinken is facing new contempt warnings from congressional republicans accusing him of failing to provide documents from the chaotic withdrawal, that led to the death of 13 service members. >> for more than six months we have every week provided hundreds of documents and information from the ar files. we sent the most recent to the committee this past friday. >> house foreign affairs committee republicans put out a statement responding to that comment that matt miller made at the briefing in response to the questions, essentially accusing him of lying, saying the statement was false and reiterating the threat to hold blinken in contempt of congress. john. >> john: something else for us to watch. gillian, thank you. >> murder, rape, aggravated assault, robbery, all dropped sharply, along with burglary,
11:38 am
property crime and theft. and it matters. as president, public safety, public safety and crime reduction is a topic priority for my administration and for me. and has been for a long time back when i was chairman of judiciary committee. >> sandra: business owners in blue cities hurting over the crime crisis. dozens of stores in san francisco have shut down over repeated thefts. same in portland. employees and shoppers say they fear for their safety over brazen smash and grab robberies. it's not just a quality of life, it's economic one. robert wolf, and steve moore. and that's a change to your status, welcome to you. >> thank you. >> sandra: so, where does this go, robert? i mean, if you don't have a president that is seriously acknowledging the crisis, at the white house a few moments ago was touting a drop in crime
11:39 am
statistics. that's not what we are feeling and seeing. >> i want to take this both ways. no question the president's statistics are accurate. since the bipartisan safer communities act we have seen a reduction in crime. with that being said, to your point, the perception is not there, especially in the cities, and that's why we are seeing a big change in retail where things that have to do with anything brick and mortar. there was a nervousness of people shopping and it's changing, you know, kind of what's going on in san francisco, certainly you've heard about mayor adams view on sanctuary cities and new york city, so definitely a perception that does not align with what the president's statistics -- >> sandra: what date, we need context here. >> the safer act was passed in i think it was 2022, we are seeing a drop in crime if you look at places like detroit. >> sandra: sort of like inflation, from like the highest levels of crime we have seen there's been a drop. i want to get steve in here.
11:40 am
>> well, i think there's some truth to what robert is saying, and it is true that since 2022, crime is down. but crime levels have escalated. you might have seen the story, sandra, about one of our major retailers. they are saying now when you come into the store you are going to have a concierge person walk with you and pick out all the stuff that you want because the stores are so concerned about burglars. and for small businesses in inner cities it's a huge problem, sandra. i think by the way, robert, i generally agree with you that crime is down, but a lot of the stores are saying the amount of reported crime is down but not the amount of actual crime, and you know that because people just feel unsafe on the streets. >> sandra: when you say feel, this is the latest polling on it. gallup poll citing a record high for the number of americans who
11:41 am
say crime is extremely or very serious problem, 63% of americans latest to the latest gallup poll. americans like this california bakery owner say crime is getting worse. listen. >> the violence that's going on right now, the street takeovers here in compton have been getting worse and worse. more than anything, i want my business back, i want to be able to serve the community how we have been doing it for all these years. >> sandra: robert, what we are seeing and hearing every day. >> no question. i'm part owner of a little dog shop cafe in the paper a lot, and one of the reasons we have had struggles is because of crime. insurance rates are going up. >> sandra: but crime is down. >> crime is down statistically, remember, there's the perception and then there's the statistics. >> sandra: you are saying we are perceiving the crimes we are reporting on every day. what about addressing the migrant crime crisis happening? >> that's not what i said, not what i said.
11:42 am
i said the statistics are showing crime are lower. perceptions are -- is that it's more dangerous out there. and of course the situation with migration is incredibly tough, especially in georgia what's gone on. we should be clear, if you look at crime rates, they are higher in places like memphis, tennessee, and missouri, i mean -- the statistics are factual. >> sandra: steve, real quick. >> look, san francisco, seattle, portland, new york city, my hometown of chicago, there are places, you know, you used to be able to go downtown and feel safe and now you don't and i think -- by the way, crime is a tax. one of the reasons prices are so much higher today is people are stealing goods, then they have to -- the company and the retailer has to raise the price on the shelves to make up for the stuff that's stolen. so it affects every one of us even if you are not a direct victim of crime. >> sandra: i appreciate the discussion, gentlemen. thank you. we are going to continue to dig
11:43 am
into that, it is a growing problem in this country that, is for sure. so much so, you have the president himself in a roundtable discussion addressing it. thank you. john. >> john: nikki haley speaking right now in utah after losing the michigan primary by a wide margin. we will monitor her speech and bring you news out of it. plus this. >> sandra: banging down the doors. a mob of anti-israel protestors forcing jewish students to flee an event on the u.c. berkeley campus. two students who were at that event will join us live next. (bridget) with thyroid eye disease i hid from the camera. and i wanted to hide from the world. for years, i thought my t.e.d. was beyond help... but then i asked my doctor about tepezza.

>> john: jewish students at u.c. berkeley fearing for their safety after a mob of about 200 anti-israel protestors chanted slogans and broke glass where an idf soldier was scheduled to speak. all the commotion prompting police to escort fleeing students through an underground exit. our next guests are students who attended the event, one helped arrange it, and daniel joins us as well. veta, that must have been frightening. my understanding is you got injured in the melee. what happened? looked like they were trying to break down the door? >> yes, it was an extremely frightening experience. i did get injured. i actually have my arm in a brace. the door to the venue was ripped out of my hand by a mob of protestors and my hand was
11:49 am
injured in the process. >> john: and daniel, you were forced to try to find another venue for all of this, you were going back and forth, trying to still hear from this idf soldier, reservist, also an attorney named ron baryoshovet. where did you end up going, how did it end up? >> yeah, is after sunday night when they came to the event, leaking the occasion and stating to shut down the event, we were forced to meet with administrators and other staff members for another location and that security would be present. and monday morning we changed the event to zellerbach playhouse, ucpd could stay there and protect us and did not happen to the full extent. >> john: we pointed out, you were injured, another male student was spat on. what the idf soldier, also an attorney, spent a few weeks in gaza after october 7th, his name
11:50 am
is ron, here is what he told the daily wire about what happened. he said instead of giving more security to us, they gave a prize to those who were violent. they basically said those banging on doors and spitting on jews were allowed to continue but i had to leave even though i was just peacefully speaking. so their way of diffusing this was to tell the soldier to leave. why do you think the college is siding with the protestors here? >> yeah, this is, you know, a difficult question because i think at that moment it was -- it was a much smaller group of students attending the event versus this gigantic mob of extremely violent students, they ended up breaking the glass as you can see in the video and i think the university, you know, they said themselves, too, that they did not feel they could keep us safe in that building anymore, and i think that you know, they underestimated the power of this group, bears for
11:51 am
palestine, to mobilize violent people and it's unacceptable. it's -- we are allowed as students to host any kind of speaker and attend any event we want to. we are not in wrong, we are following guidelines and we were forced to relocate because the school cannot control this violent mob of students. >> john: we thought it dissipated somewhat, all the antisemitism, clearly not. we'll stay in touch with you folks. thank you for being with us. appreciate it. sandra. >> sandra: all right. we are going to jump into the white house press briefing after a quick break. she is talking about mcconnell's departure. we'll have the news for you when we return. congrats carol! your youngest finally popped the question. but now, you're really going to have to get those new dentures. after all, you need a smile that matches the moment. so this might be a good time to mention that aspen dental can create natural looking dentures in no time.

>> sandra: we've been monitoring the white house press briefing. karine jean-pierre is taking questions about the border visit tomorrow. no mention of that young girl killed down there in georgia by an illegal immigrant. >> john: and again, as we discussed earlier, with congress woman mace, it's because it's an inconvenient truth. if the president were to mention that, that would open the door to why are people that cross the border illegally being paroled in to the country.
11:56 am
then they're developing a criminal record, getting let out in sanctuary cities only to commit more crimes. in this case a heinous murder. it doesn't fit the narrative that the white house is trying to tell us, which i assume is why he hasn't said anything about it. >> sandra: we'll see how that goes. he's still in the roundtable. another busy afternoon. it's been great to be with you. martha has a big interview on "the story." a exclusive with robert f. kennedy jr., presidential candidate at 3:00 p.m. eastern time. thanks for joining us. i'm sandra smith. >> sandra: i'm john roberts. don't forget tomorrow we'll have a lot of coverage of the current president and the former president down there on the border getting a look at how it's being dealt with and where that takes news the future.
