county, virginia. next. >> dana: fox news alert now. former president trump is in federal court in fort pierce, florida, where his legal team will present arguments in a bid to get his classified documents case dismissed. they claim mr. trump is protected under provisions of the presidential records act and they are asking the judge to reject prosecution claims of espionage and obstruction. americans trapped in haiti begging for help in the rush to get them out as vicious gangs take overturning haiti into a lawless danger zone. welcome to a new hour of "america's newsroom." i'm dana perino. >> bill: good morning. second hour begins now. i'm bill hemmer, good morning. right now a team of elite marines on the ground in haiti to defend the u.s. embassy and help secure the safety of americans there. the island country as it descends into bloody chaos. notorious gang leader barbecue at the center of growing violence calling for a bloody
7:02 am
revolution. it sparks fears the crisis could go spew into the u.s. >> dana: biden administration is considering plans to -- the chaos in haiti before this man was rescued. >> we've been through this stuff before. our obligation is to our kids. a lot of people need to get out still and then the thing is, we went through what it was like to have your freedom taken away for eight or nine days. >> dana: we're live at the state department as this crisis has been building for quite a while and now reaching a peak. >> that's right. there may be thousands of americans trapped inside haiti right now with the country really teetering on the brink of total collapse. the state department does not appear to know precisely how
7:03 am
many americans are there on the ground needing rescue. >> how many american citizens are you aware of in haiti wanting to leave? >> i don't have a number. >> as gang violence and blood-letting is spiraling out of control by the hour the state department is trying now to evacuate the embassy and state officials are acknowledging concerns this crisis could prompt a mass exodus haitians from the country with many seeking asylum in the u.s. >> what often happens when you have an unstable security situation is increase in people attempting to flee the country and leave to other places. >> right now the country's most notorious gang leaders are leading the charge and in total control of the capital city and shut erred government buildings, roads, airports. border officials in florida have already been put on high alert to the possibility of a new wave of mass migration prompting
7:04 am
governor desantis to deploy extra assets to protect the state's coast. military experts fear conditions on the ground could result in what they're calling afghanistan 2.0. >> this is a failed state. there is no government. there is no police enforcement. gangs and anarchy are ruling the day. we learned it in iraq in afghanistan, security becomes the necessary condition. >> secretary blinken spoke to us reporters the at the state department yesterday saying his top priority the u.s. top priority right now is working to set up this interim coalition government inside the country that will soon nominate a new prime minister to take over. maybe there is chance that will restore some security. >> dana: keep us posted. >> bill: the white house facing a p.r. nightmare as allegations over verbal abuse from top aides goes public. this headache coming as president biden ramps up
7:05 am
campaign travel turning focus to critical battleground states in the upper midwest. he will go to michigan today for the first time since 100,000 voters cast uncommitted ballots in protest during michigan's primary. peter doocy has the low down on the road trip today from the north lawn. good morning. >> good morning. the only way this president or any president who is in office can have a successful out of town trip is if the advance teams identifies any possible problem that could pop up and addresses it before the president gets there. but the white house advance team now is in crisis. the two staffers responsible for more logistics over the last three years than anybody else serving president biden are gone amid complaints of bad behavior. >> the president is deeply proud of his advance team. he is grateful to everyone who has served and is serving on an unmatched team that represents the diversity of the country as
7:06 am
they have fought every day to help him bring his message to the american people and to the entire world. >> that advance team has set up more events in pennsylvania than anywhere else and trump is now beating biden head-to-head there by two in a fox poll 49-47. pennsylvania voters surveyed trust trump over biden to do better on the border, economy and on foreign policy. and more tough news for biden in arizona. trump is leading him at the moment by four spots, 49-45. in that state, trump is also favored by 19 points by voters who think it is extremely important to have a president who is mentally sound. biden is trying to fortify his blue wall with stops in michigan and wisconsin. >> president biden: i know it sounds like but it is all in your hands. folks like you all across the country because this is how i won the first time i ever ran and how we win again. you helped me in 2020 and we
7:07 am
want to make sure he was a loser. he is a loser. we will make sure that happens again. >> if it will happen again for president biden he will have to stop the trend of voters moving away from him. the only top three issue in these two swing states that were polled that biden is beating trump in is election integrity. bill. >> bill: watching the upper midwest. keep an eye on michigan and wisconsin, critical battleground states. separated by a few votes four years ago. go back to 2016, wisconsin and michigan 10,000 votes here and there. that decided the electoral counts. toss it to dana. byron york will join us now and get a sense of where the campaign is right now. i thought the fox polling yesterday was very interesting, right? pennsylvania and arizona seem to be as razor tight as some of these upper midwest states.
7:08 am
>> dana: what karl rove writes today is if you are a democrat, you need to understand that trump is more formidable today than he was in 2020. that is what they are trying to say. byron york with us, he is a fox news contributor and good to have you with us. so take a look at those polls. upper midwest area, it's -- democrats tried to hold onto it. right now trump in a slight lead in these cases. where do you think it will end up? >> first of all, i think we've been really showing an important part of this campaign today because today joe biden is going to be in michigan and wisconsin, and donald trump is in a courtroom in fort pierce, florida. that's a huge difference that we are going to see in this campaign and it will go on and on and on as the former president's legal cases continue. now as far as the close states are concerned, i think there is something we really need to pay
7:09 am
attention to in the new fox polling. there is a couple of ways you can poll. you can poll trump versus biden. or you can poll a five-way race with robert f. kennedy and stein and cornell in there. if you look at the polls five ways you see the three third party candidates getting between ten and 15% of the vote. that's a huge factor when you have two candidates who are as tightly matched right now as joe biden and donald trump. >> dana: just on that this morning it was released that the democratic national committee for the first time in its history will dedicate a team to the third party threat. that will be led by liz smith who helped pete buttigieg in 2020. >> bill: before we talk more about rfk. he had an interesting comment with trace gallagher with fox
7:10 am
news @ night and aaron rodgers. economy was number one in arizona and pennsylvania. immigration ranked high in arizona as well. who do you trust more to do a better job? arizona is up 14 for trump and pennsylvania he is up 12 on that same issue, byron. if it stays there, you saw the inflation number from what, an hour and a half ago, that story is going to stay with america unfortunately for the rest of this year at least. >> absolutely. and a big factor here again which nobody has experienced in anybody's lifetime is that you have two candidates running against each other, both of whom have been president of the united states. so when usually you have one candidate who is the the president seeking re-election and another promising what he will do if he is elected president. that's not the case here. you have had two men who both have been in the office and i think that's a real strength for donald trump. perhaps voter's memories of him have gotten rosier of him.
7:11 am
things were better economically when donald trump was president. you can measure that in all sorts of measurements like inflation. and that gives him a big, big edge over joe biden. >> dana: that's true also with hispanics in particular. the liberal patriot blog writing about that specifically yesterday. let's talk about third parties more. rfk junior made a little bit of news last night with trace gallagher talking about a potential v.p. pick that he will announce next week on march 26th. watch here. >> i really like aaron because our appeal is to young people. we're trying to make sure that young people are participating in the political process. aaron rodgers has been hammered by the press and aware of health issues. that's one of the things -- that's one of the key parts of my agenda. >> dana: i'm intrigued. i want to see what will happen. what do you think will happen here? >> well, rfk junior is an
7:12 am
interesting candidate and talking about some interesting choices, either aaron rodgers or jesse ventura, the former wrestler and governor of minnesota. now, if you've noticed, if this was a trial balloon that rfk junior sent up it has been shot at a lot among democrats, among their allies in the media who were just absolutely trashing this. i think the sub text of that, whatever aaron rodgers qualifications to be vice president are, the sub text is they're scared that an rfk junior candidacy will hurt joe biden more than it hurts donald trump. after all, rfk is really a democrat. he is a kennedy democrat and his presence on the ballot is probably going to hurt the democrat more than it hurts donald trump. >> dana: hence the worry by the democratic national committee. thanks, byron, good to see you. >> thanks, folks. >> dana: we were mentioning the
7:13 am
third party candidacy possibility could make or break the race in some states. biden administration senior officials are reportedly meeting with pro-palestinian leaders in chicago today. why does that matter? it's where the convention is. the president faces mounting backlash from his own party over the israel/hamas war. it whats one of the largest palestinian populations in the public and trying to regain support as early voting is happening now in illinois for the state's primary. they don't want to see a repeat like they did in minnesota. the fate of fani willis hanging in the balance. a judge to decide whether she will be removed from the trump election case. >> bill: newly released surveillance student of missing student riley strain. will this shed light on his disappearance? have a look at that and also this, roll it. >> what type of folks do you anticipate coming for spring break? >> it will be a lot of young

7:19 am
>> bill: want to take you down to lukeville, arizona this in to us a few moments ago. we caught what appears to be two dozen migrants walking across the border. lukeville, arizona is in the middle of the border of southern arizona, okay. a small town. i don't know how many people are there but not a lot. on the other side of the border
7:20 am
you have significant roads that lead into on the mexican side of the border several different towns. lukeville was a hot spot a couple of weeks ago. it is still happening right now with the sun up a couple dozen come across. don't know where they are from. fox cameras are there. to let america and the world know the border is still open as we see there now. okay. 10:19 dana, what have you got? >> dana: federal judge setting a date for hunter biden's gun trial and the judge who blew up the plea deal. >> her name is judge noreika based in wilmington, delaware and penciled in the week of june 3rd for hunter biden to appear and answer during his trial on federal gun charges. she held a conference call yesterday with parties from the special counsel david weiss's
7:21 am
office. both sides expect the trial to last two weeks tops. david weiss says hunter lied on a federal firearm form when he answered know to having a drug addiction. he is heading to trial on june 20th in los angeles for federal criminal tax charges. that date may slide given when the delaware trial starts. also some sharp words from hunter's attorney yesterday sent a scathing letter to james comer saying his client would not appear for a public hearing next week. far from the smoking guns you claim the evidence doesn't amount to drop lets from a water system. if you are serious pursuing this in a legitimate and bipartisan fashion you would hold a hearing with relatives of former president trump about whom you indicated you would ask. if you do, mr. biden would consider an invitation for that event. james comer firing back to house
7:22 am
oversight committee has called hunter biden's bluff. he stated he wanted a public hearing now that one has offered alongside business associates he worked with for years, he is refusing to come. remember hunter biden spent the day before congress on february 28th answering questions under oath off camera. his former business associate tony bobulinski has already confirmed he will attend next week. dana and bill. >> dana: david spunt, thank you. >> bill: thank you, david. florida beach towns will be put to test over the weekend traditionally the most rowdy week of spring break. city officials are getting ready for the possibility of violence and party to peak. florida governor ron desantis signeding extra troops to miami and fort lauderdale to bolster support and prevent chaos. lawrence jones has already been there and just back and talked to a lot of spring breakers down there. >> dana: you have the toughest assignments. >> bill: we saw you in new
7:23 am
orleans and miami. >> lawrence: how many drinks can you tolerate a day? >> me personally? probably 15. >> 15 drinks? >> during a day i like to prepare myself for the evening festivities. >> what's the rule if you put the drink down. >> not to pick it back up. >> do not pick it back up. >> all our shots we bought. >> bill: what did you learn? >> there is a mix of reporting trying to figure out what's happening at the spring break b but educating the younger people. don't experiment with the drugs because half are laced with fentanyl. one thing i learned is miami beach stepped up. they got a new mayor, three new commissioners on city council. have a great relationship with the governor now and shutting the city down. dui checkpoints.
7:24 am
towing cars, checks on the beach. as a result, a lot of the kids are leaving miami beach and going to fort lauderdale because they can't do the insane stuff they were once doing. if you remember last year when i covered spring break we were talking to folks. someone pulled a gun on us and three murders that happened that same weekend. so it was just not -- it wasn't just the drugs. it was the violence and shooting and a lot of businesses were upset about it as well because they ransacked their area. >> dana: you were in new orleans as well. residents versus revelers. is that tension reaching a point where somebody like the mayor says i have to pay attention to my tax paying businesses although some businesses might mix out on big nights. >> i talked to the mayor. i was elected to do this. public safety is my number one responsibility. i will say, dana, there are
7:25 am
businesses that like the rush for that two weeks feeling like they get at least a quarter of their income for the whole year in that two weeks but for other people it is like we live here all the time and if we are having to leave and take a vacation somewhere else because they are coming, it's not right. >> bill: i heard lauderdale was a mess. >> it is a mess. they will have to deal with it. new orleans i never anticipated it being a spring break destination. apparently got some young people there. >> bill: you were talking to us during the commercial and said you were surprised how willing they were to jump on camera and do an interview at any time of day. >> it surprised me. the clip of the young lady i always ask the kids what's the first thing that you do and she said bronzeer and cocaine.
7:26 am
i went to spring break a few times when we had the money. i never would have jumped in front of a camera. the willingness of these young people to be drunk in the middle of the street and be willing to tell the whole world i just think it says something about this generation. >> bill: maybe you grew up with a phone. >> dana: and where do you think it goes from here? do you think fort lauderdale is making a bad decision? >> you mean miami beach. >> dana: if all the revelers get pushed there. >> they will change their policies to be more reflective of miami beach. the they have to. again, there was some traction in fort lauderdale. everyone wanted to go to the most beautiful beach in the country miami beach. they will adjust the policy. i think this year, dana, ainsley used to cover spring break before i did. she said when she did all this coverage for years they ended up
7:27 am
shutting down panama beach because parents were so concerned. i think the same thing will happen to all of these beaches once more cameras shine on it. >> bill: miami has a different composition since covid. a lot of people moved down there. >> one day you should do the show with me for spring break. >> dana: for spring break, no. i'm sure -- i'm not going. >> bill: the biden team coming up against a major deadline on the border wall and impact the border crisis as we just saw with the fresh video in arizona. s.a.t. undergoing a major makeover. different testing for different students. how will that turn out? we shall explain when we continue. ♪ ar it all the time. people tell me they'd love to buy gold. but because it's gold - they think it must be complicated. it isn't. not with rosland capital. with rosland...

>> bill: when she hired him. we expect that decision any moment. we're waiting on it. when it happens you'll hear about it. >> dana: the biden administration is on the clock facing a deadline tomorrow on whether to appeal a judge's ruling ordering it to build walls along the southern border meaning existing construction crews will be sent home and millions of dollars in material could again be abandoned in the desert. what's going on here? william la jeunesse in l.a. hi, william. >> this is a big deal because you have a federal judge ordering president biden to do something he does not want to do, which is build the trump wall. remember president biden immediately stopped construction and diverted that money to other projects. friday a federal judge ruled that was illegal and ordered billions in congressional funds
7:34 am
to be spent only on construction of physical barriers such as additional walls, fencing, and buoys. >> it is a rare case where the court has ordered the administration to do something that will actually be effective in stemming the tide of illegal immigration. >> so the administration had diverted that construction money to flood control, repairing gates and environmental remediation. the judge says you can't do that and order means come tomorrow projects like this one near san diego installing cameras and censor wire could stop and wall construction begin later. >> if there isn't an appeal and this order is -- goes into effect, then we should expect to see pretty massive construction project. >> so agents do support walls
7:35 am
but they also support cameras and crecensor, it is a win or affect as and missouri which brought the suit. >> dana: thank you. >> it makes it impossible for the senate to ignore the effort. i think the most prudent thing for us to do now is to just engage in our colleagues in the senate. i would welcome a conversation with senator schumer. i know senator schumer is very concerned about the threat posed by the chinese communist party. >> bill: mike gallagher leaving congress but not before trying to push this through. the ball is now in the senate's court. the house passed a bill overwhelmingly that would force tiktok to divest in the u.s. and might shut it down unless they getaway from the chinese parent
7:36 am
company. josh hawley joining me now. i know how you feel about this but i also know how the vote went in the house. chuck schumer says the senate will review the legislation when it comes over from the house and that was it. after a 352-65 vote, does the senate feel a sense that they have to do something? >> well, i sure hope so. bill. the time to ban tiktok in the united states is long past. we need to put americans back in charge of america media. i don't want them owning anything american. we need to put americans back in charge of all those things. tiktok is a great place to start and i hope the senate takes it up quickly. i'm not holding my breath. tiktok have spent a lot of money buying influence. >> bill: i want to play two pieces of sound here. first it's from the ceo of tiktok works out of singapore on tiktok last night about 6:45.
7:37 am
>> we will not stop fighting and advocating for you. we will continue to do all we can, including exercising our legal rights to protect this amazing platform that we have built with you. we believe we can overcome this together. i encourage you to keep sharing your stories, share them with your friends and family, share them with the senators. protect your constitutional rights. make your voices heard. >> bill: respond to that and that line about legal rights. we going to court? >> well listen, first of all the chinese communist party is the one that has the back door to every american's life through tiktok. they don't have a right to specialty we don't want any america creator to be dependent on chinese or chinese-based platform a back door for the chinese communist party. let's trust american innovation here. he is not wrong the influence tiktok has. they've spent millions of dollars trying to buy influence
7:38 am
in the senate . i'm being honest with you. they have bought a lot of influence. follow the money is the adage we should watch. >> bill: one of the arguments the company makes and they advertise sometimes on our channel. influencers and small business owners who say they make a lot of money off the app. this was a small business rally near the white house this week. happened yesterday and here is a few of them making their case, watch here. >> the longer time goes the more they'll realize the damage it will do to the american people. start to take heat to the things we want them to reform and things we want them to actually go into like stopping and resolving those problems. tiktok is not one of those things. >> this will heavily influence how i vote from today and for the rest of my life because if you vote against freedom of speech, you don't really stand for me. >> bill: what would you say to them? >> i would say we don't want any american to be dependent on a chinese-based app on a chinese platform on the chinese government and why we need american innovation and need to put americans back in control of their own media.
7:39 am
the idea china would try to use american business people and american creators make them dependent on the chinese government and say look we'll use them as a shield shouldn't be the case. no american should be dependent in that way and have to rely on this app. we want american innovation to take the lead here and we want americans to be in control of their own media. >> steve mnuchin earlier today said he is trying to put a group together to buy it. would you buy that? >> i think that's a great idea. one of the best things that can happen here is tiktok gets sold. there be a firewall between tiktok and beijing. the whole problem is beijing's access to our penal information through tiktok. that's the national security threat. >> bill: senator, thank you for your time. josh hawley, republican from missouri. >> dana: chuck schumer the majority leader of the democrats in the senate giving a speech right now on the floor. not about tiktok. that is a thorny issue he has to decide on as senator hawley was talking about.
7:40 am
this is about israel and hamas and the war in particular the and he is really going after netanyahu, the leader of israel and that follows tom friedman in the "new york times" today saying netanyahu is making israel radioactive. i hope the commentary magazine comcast was recorded. i want their take. the biden administration saying the israelis don't support netanyahu. that is not supported by the war cabinet or on the ground. we might have to do more with domestic politics. biden campaign officials are going to chicago to meet with pro-palestinian voters today. we'll follow that for you. the cdc taking action as measles are spreading in chicago outbreak shelters and sparking concern in other sanctuary cities. students trying to get high in the classroom. the push by lawmakers to regulate hemp.

>> president biden: wages are rising faster than prices. among the lowest inflation rates of any country. >> inflation is down two/3, prices fell for gas, milk, eggs, chicken, appliances and used cars. >> bill: the view from the white house but doesn't jive with what we found out today. from a year ago this time the index is up 1.6%. tuesday's inflation report showing consumer prices creeping higher. some experts fear that 3% inflation could be the new normal for a longer time than anyone wants preventing us to get back to the pre-covid level of 2%, which is the target for the fed and until they get there we won't have a real good
7:47 am
stabilizing number on the interest rates and that will have a political effect on washington, d.c. >> dana: we're getting into that window of whatever they do will be seen as political. the most important thing is for people to be able to get prices back to a point where they feel like they aren't struggling. chicago on high alert dealing with a growing measles outbreak connected to one migrant shelters. other cities are concerned as they see a surge in migrants. dr. marc siegel joins us now. doctor, what are the symptoms of measles? >> well dana, first of all measles is not political, right? it has been made political but shouldn't be. for measles you feel initially malaise, fever, red eyes and four or five days later headache, fever, cough, you can get pneumonia and you develop bright red rash. that's measles. it is the most highly contagious
7:48 am
respiratory virus on the planet. here is the stark medicine of this. if you are vaccinated you are almost 100% not going to get measles. if you are not vaccinated against it and you encounter is there is a 100% you are going to get measles. that's the problem. now the head of the cdc told me last week that we're about at 93ers p percent in the united states. i think it's lower now. that was a year ago. we have had so much anti-vaccine sentiment that the measles vaccination is dropping. the number for herd immunity. a term we said a lot during the pandemic. it's 95 or 96%. if the whole herd is vaccinated we'll protect the others who can't get it who can't get it. we are not at 96% now. that's why chicago is at risk. in addition to the fact one more
7:49 am
point here, dana, i don't think the issue of migrants and measles is political. i tell you why. because if you are coming across the southern border you come from a country that's 85 to 90% vaccinated. on top of that you think if you are rushing across the border or trying to escape somewhere you will pause to get a vaccination? i don't think you'll do that. >> dana: apparent will i now at these shelters in chicago, at this one they are providing vaccines to people there. how quickly can you become protected from measles if you get a vaccine today? and then does that -- if you are an adult does it help protect you for the rest of your life? >> i knew you were going to ask me that question. the answer is 13% of the people in that shelter needed the vaccine. that's the 87% rate. actually will help. within about four to five days
7:50 am
to a week it offers a level of protection. measles can -- this isn't 100% perfect but it will help and lifetime immunity is what we think. two shots give you about 97, 98% lifetime immunity. one shot about 91 to 93%. i check tires. if i'm in a place where i think measles could have an outbreak i want to see if it has worn off and i give a booster. >> dana: can i ask you do you think the cdc needs to do something more if the biden administration is not going to do any more executive orders and leave the border the way it is and see how it goes, i guess, congress won't pass a bill, does the cdc need to try to do something to protect the rest of us who are here from other possible situations like this? i had to ask you what the symptoms are of measles. i was vaccinated. i don't know. i have never known anybody who
