>> we'll be watching all of it, mark meredith in washington. thank you. to what white house saying about this permit for that we turned to griff jenkins live at the white house with the latest. >> good afternoon ,?]sandra. the white house seems to be -- on border question simply blaming congressional or publicans or failing to take action, little earlier this afternoon things got pretty heated between john kirby and our own here to see. watch. >> to folks that are concerned about border security, the president will be the first one to stand up here and say he agrees. the border does needs some security capabilities. we do need more border patrol agents and all that has to happen is for the speaker to do his job, but that supplemental in the floor, get those 1300 additional border patrol agents down there to do their job. >> but everybody in this room knows that the builder you guys keep talking about there is a solution is dead at the moment. >> says you. it is needed to be that, does
1:04 pm
it? >> the bill is that. >> says you! >> when is the boat? >> as speaker johnson that. >> there are real -- >> this comes as former president trump is blasting biden over the border in grand rapids is mark just laid out. trump a striking the issue that voters sites most often as biden biggest failure according to fox's latest polling you see here 67% is accused -- approving -- work in the economy and inflation. part of that sentiment may be stemming from the floor fentanyl across our southern border which is part of the call today between president biden and china's presidents trying to which the white house called a candid and constructive called her mother also talked about when you ties between the two militaries, need to address of ai risks and maintaining peace in the taiwan strait. there was also a pledge made between the two presidents to talk as regular -- regularly as needed. we learn finally, sandra, a secretary yet -- yelling and blinken will make trips to
1:05 pm
china in the coming weeks speed to griff jenkins live at the white house for us, thank you. so is the border issue resonating in key battleground states? joining us now is -- and carly cooperman. thanks to both of you ladies for joining us. league, tell us what you're seeing on that front? >> i think it matters a lot. were seeing a huge shift in poles. immigration has become the number 1 issue that americans over the economy for the first time over the last several weeks and we are seeing the severity of people's concern about immigrations related to -- 32% of american say that immigration is of major risk to them personally and there is an increase when donald trump was president of only 17% said the same thing so we are seeing a real shift in how people are viewing this. so the question is is trump going to be able to capitalize? obviously biden is trying to say that he doesn't have real solutions although 55% of americans felt safer or feel safer with trump's policies over 33% to biden. >> spee do we put up on the
1:06 pm
screen those financial results going back to 2016 as john would say the way back machine, you look at the 47 and a half -- that is your point two% martin victory that trump pulled off and i stayed in wisconsin as well and you seem focusing on this issue of immigration in these key battleground states and you wonder if this is resonating with voters, corley? >> i do think it's resonating with voters. the polling is -- has consistently shown that immigration has come to the top in terms of what's most important to voters and the -- it consistently shows that the disapprove of how president biden is handling the border issue thus far and that is why we are hearing time and time again know that by -- trident -- china administration is talking bout of wanting to take on this issue counter advocating to get this border bill passed that there is a bipartisan effort -- wants trump said he didn't approve it. and this despite the fact that 59% of voters approved of that bipartisan bill and
1:07 pm
they're also talking about considering things like executive actions. the biden administration know that they have to address this issue if they want to be successful in these states. >> sandra: and look at the 2020 results in how biden turn things around and won by a small margin of victory there in michigan and it was -- wisconsin as well and you wonder what happens this time around in the battle for michigan right now, are reporting for 2024 election has trump at 47.4% of biden's 43.9. in wisconsin that margin is smaller, 48.3% 247.54 -- 47 pack-mac but if you look at the performance that voters are giving joe biden on immigration, it is worse than inflation, it is worse then the economy. griff just showed the numbers from the white house and as we saw the primaries this is where the focus was out for voters. they're worried about whether seeing at the southern border and are experiencing more and more every day what that
1:08 pm
crisis at the southern border means for them all over this country, lee. >> yeah. i think it is really going to be telling. and this is an issue that a lot of democrats have tried to push and say this is now the republicans fault because they are not making a deal, this is on speaker johnson. this is not how the american people view it. they're very much saying they're blaming the democrats can live had the power for the last three and a half years and haven't done things to make things better, in fact, they feel much worse so i think that blame shifting leaders her democrats and only helps them are publicans. i think issue that will be hardest for republicans to navigate right no because everything else is in their favor and the biggest issue and donald trump said that he will address it next week is where we are going to land an abortion. >> sandra: gotcha payments will see what more we hear about that and we are hearing that former president trump is going to make me -- making remarks soon on that front. carly, i want to end with us on a separate topic, robert f. kennedy junior's campaign is saying that it has enough votes to get on the ballot in
1:09 pm
another key battleground state, north carolina. so, carly, how could that impact this race? >> look, rf kennedy's -- to how many ballots he can get on across the country. north carolina in particular is a state that the china administration has been targeting as a pickup state. joe biden lost by fewer than 2 points in that state in 2020 and if rfk junior ultimately is successful in getting on that state, it is something that is going to be -- you will be difficult for the biden campaign because, you know, rfk is pulling -- but the china ministration is real concerned about this and so, you know, there is an effort to counter this narrative but it certainly will make things troublesome for democrats in north carolina if he said is successful. >> sandra: lee, how about
1:10 pm
you? how does impact biden and trump rfk getting another ballot? >> i think it actually impacts -- one of the big things of looking at it rfk junior is pulling from both sides but in particular his pulling from the left and his got evp peck who is very antiwar. and he will pick up a lot of those pro-palestinian, free palestinian democrats who are out there protesting as an biden. thank it will be a big issue for him. >> sandra: very interesting. thanks to both of you, carly, lee, wait to see you. >> thank you. >> thank you. >> sandra: and by the way the -- sparks falling on new worries about higher energy prices that could stand inflation even higher. you've got oil and gasoline prices are. and there is a big question whether that could delay the fed's plan for an interest rate cut this year. remember there was adjusting there could be even three, well know the markets are questioning that all three markets fell in to the red, the dow down almost a full

us. what is next? >> the next step is the appellate division which is the appeals court that supervises the trial court of new york and that is where former president trump will go to fight the battles and -- and tries to get this judgement overturned. the appellate court will consist of three brand-new judges to the case who will look at what happened in the trial court can look at the penalties that the trial judge imposed, a look at the nature of the sanction count the amount of the punishment and the like whether or not it was lawfully imposed over there needs to be set aside. of the battle with -- will continue but no interest to the court of appeals. >> sandra: what does that

1:33 pm
they would more likely choose the proxies that operates in delivering those attacks for so long. now -- they have not been attacked on our bases in iraq and syria for weeks after we killed the leader of the militia group operating in iraq that iran was barking and iran ordered the mil militia's not to attack our most -- bases as earth -- result of that. so we seek -- will see what happens here but likely focus will be on israel. and listen get a lot of tongue and wringing of hands that this could escalate into world war iii. that is not going to happen. iran does not want in a wreck on phone -- confrontation with the united states and go to war with the united states. all of their in the middle east than trying to achieve, domination and control, are gone because lose their regime. they know that. and they understand that and their actions have been along those lines when we take

♪ ♪ >> sandra: going after bosses for contacting their workers after hours. it's a new push in california. the bill would allow employees to ignore calls and texts from their boss after they are off the clock. we reached out to the lawmaker behind this, but is something like this needed, or does it go too far? let's ask strategic partner mark
1:57 pm
tapper a "new york post" columnist ricky schlatter. markham is this necessary? >> no, this is definitely a step too far. i mean, these are arrangements and agreements that should be between employers and employees. we all have free will. if you have an overbearing boss, there is 8.7 million jobs. you can go and get a job elsewhere. and i would have to say, most small business owners are very reasonable. most of them aren't going to have expectations that you work way after hours or on weekends. however, as a small business owner myself, while i don't have those expectations, it certainly doesn't go unnoticed. it is very much appreciated when someone responds after hours. >> sandra: so they would have the right, this bill would force them to have the right to investigate and find companies that show a pattern of barging in on parents personal time. ricky, what do you think? >> i mean, i think are bigger fish to fry and problems to solve out in california. it certainly feels like this is
1:58 pm
not the place of an over busy politician too, as mark said, basically they are not something that should be interpersonal. the only argument i can really think of in this sense is the zoom era and the work from home era has allowed what home late nomadic life and work life to blend together. we need to talk and work through what that is like in a hybrid work situation not let the legislators do it for us. >> sandra: i think that's a good point, ricky. isn't there a reasonable expectation can you still send the text, get back to me at your availability or perhaps in the morning? the writer of the bill said, to ricky's point, this bill would return working standards from before the smartphone era, which has "blurred the boundaries between work and home life." i think most people listening at home, that resonates with them a little bit, right? we don't just close the door and leave our office. >> correct! but i'll tell you what, sandra, what this really is to me is
1:59 pm
just another display of equity in the workplace, right? we can't let the go-getters who go above above and beyond, respo emails at 10:00 p.m., we can't let them get ahead. we have to cater to the least motivated group of employees and that is exactly what you have going on here that is exactly what they are doing peered >> sandra: i guess, rikki, the question is at the bigger picture is california already has some of the strictest, most stringent small business laws on the books. it's just getting harder and harder for some of these small businesses to stay in business. >> absolutely comment a lot of these regulations often backfired, like the exorbitant minimum wage which is difficult for teens to get summer jobs. it makes it difficult for small businesses to make ends meet. i think that really the government needs to step away from the interpersonal relationship between bosses and employees, and california is basically the test case for why that is a problem. >> sandra: mark, do you answer your text and phone calls after
2:00 pm
hours? >> i do! of course, i own the business, so i got to do it. what if a client has a problem? i got to address it immediately and i would hope of one of my employees had a solution they would respond rather promptly. >> sandra: they are interesting. i think the aspect of most small businesses and small business owners are reasonable. but there are emergencies and there are situations that have to be immediately addressed. appreciate the conversation, rikki, mark, great to see you both. thank you so much beer and hard to believe in our has one bite. thanks so much for joining us beer you can catch me tomorrow once i john roberts 1:00 p.m. eastern time on "america reports." again, thank you for joining us here. for now, here is "the five." ♪ ♪ >> greg: hi, and greg gutfeld along with judge jeanine pirro, harold ford jr., jesse watters, and she high jumps wit
