blood on joe biden's hand as he destroyed our southern border during president trump with the safest southern border we have seen in modern history. we had strength on our border that was not run by the cartels paired we didn't have these animals entering our country and president trump said this nine years ago that they are not going to sit and if we have a open border and no american children are dying. >> a very passionate texas congressman wesley hunt earlier speaking about the dangers of an open border following the murder of a 12-year-old girl in houston just a few miles outside of his district. the latest incident and a growing number of violent cases by immigrants who have illegally

entered this country. welcome back as america reports roles into the second hour it is 2:00 on the east coast and sandra smith in new york and aishah great to have you today. >> aishah: thank you, i am aishah hasnie as we get shocking new deals up about the alleged of that 13-year-old girl in new york city. isis now confronting the ecuadorian man was captured at our southern border but then allowed to enter into the country with a notice to appear in court. >> sandra: meanwhile the immigrant in suspected of the murder of rachel. >> aishah: brian these cases are really highlighting mysterious concerns about the immigration system in our border. >> aishah that's exactly right. it's really on two friends. first the issue of gnome got aways and secondly it's the issue of the surge of the number of cases simply overwhelming our immigration system paired according to ice christian in the illegal immigrant from ecuador that is suspected of raping that 13-year-old girl was going to be deported in february of 2022 but never was.

border patrol encountered inge crossing illegally into eagle pass, texas, in june of 2021. he was released into the u.s. with a notice to appear in court. inge is 1 of 7.4 million cases currently in isis nondetained a docket. this is millions of illegal immigrants released into the country as they are cases are being adjudicated. a number that a bold since president biden took office ice deportation officers on average are each monitoring 7,000 of these cases. and then there's the issue of the known cutaways those who evade border patrol and successfully illegally into the u.s. like victor martinez hernandez. he is the illegal immigrant from el salvador accused of murdering and the mother of five.

he made four attempts to enter illegally within a matter of weeks in 2023 he was caught and sent back three times under title 42 before he successfully crossed illegally into el paso. in february 2023 as a known got away. lauren was murdered six months later together perhaps sister says the biden administration has blood on their hands. >> it is sickening. this all could have been prevented. you know, how many more like this? you know it is really sad. no one is safe. speak i know the numbers can be overwhelming but martinez hernandez was 1 of 1.9 million known got aways that have entered this country since president biden took office in 2021. >> aishah: it is clear as day, ryan, you cannot bet all those people. we don't have the resources.

bryan llenas life for us thank you, brian. >> core spirit >> sandra: a new louisiana law requiring a display of the ten commandments in every public school classroom is drying heavy criticism from democrats and the mainstream media. >> one of the dumbest wastes of time i've ever seen in my life. this is a book burner talking points. these to burn books, take them at libraries. >> i think what he is banging on is that this sort of reactive very partisan supreme court will overturn president and say now this is okay and we should be very afraid of that because we are now in upside down world. >> sandra: jeff landry a republican governor of louisiana who signed the first of its kind legislation into law this week and he joins us now exclusively for his first interview since signing that into law. governor, gray tabby think for being here. first of -- >> thank you for having me. >> you hear the criticism

pouring in was the right thing to do? >> i didn't think living the bad commitments was a bad way to live life. i didn't know it was so bio to obey the ten commandments. i think that speaks volumes about how eroded this country has become. i mean, this country was founded on judeo-christian principles. and every time we steer away from that we have problems in our nation. i mean right now schools teach and basically treat kids like critters and yet the ten commitments is bad to put in schools? it is amazing it really is. >> sandra: for those listening right now they are wondering what is the goal? it's not as if this is going to be taught in every school and classroom. this is just being displayed on the walls. so my question to you is how is this going to improve the school

environment? and the performance of kids in those schools when governor i pull up their report cards of these public schools and louisiana is struggling. i mean, it is at the bottom of the country in the education system is failing these kids. louisiana is 43 and 44th in math and reading. is this going to help what is a very big problem in louisiana? >> i think is part and parcel to helping kids anywhere around the country but at the same time we sign that deal into law we assign a string of others i signed 20 bills including this one to reform louisiana schools. look, 20 years ago the state of florida had the same statistics you just rattled off that louisiana now has. they went through a number of educational reforms. we took up some of the things that many of those things like florida have done and we signed

those into law perry we believe displaying historical documents especially something as important as the ten commandments, look. when the supreme court meets the doors of the supreme courts on the backside have the ten commandments. moses faces the u.s. speaker of the house in the house of chamber. he is the original giver of law. most of our laws in this country are founded on the ten commandments. what is the big problem, sander questioned that's what i don't understand. >> sandra: i am just challenging you to get your response. it's not my take on the situation. >> i know. >> sandra: governor, i want to make sure i get both sides in here because this is really important and you are doing something clearly getting a lot of attention. it's getting a lot of reaction. to your point about the becoming the 11th state to pass universal school choice, that is to too, i want to get to that the first these are the groups who say

they are against and one that says they are for the display of the ten commandments in schools, listen. >> this law is a prime example of christian nationalism. >> we are certainly suggesting to them in fact endorsing a particular religion in the classroom and that we find to be violative of both the constitution and the first amendment. >> there is no censorship, there is no forced religion, there is no imposing, no public expenses. >> the latter voice was jean mills president of louisiana family forum. add to it a second voice in favor of it and that is the former president, donald trump. he posted this, governor, on truth social "i love the tenements and promote public schools, private schools, many other places in that matter. read it, how can we as a nation go wrong? this may be the first major step in the revival of religion testily needed in our country. bring back ttc maga 2024."

she says they are trying to privatize schools and demolish the separation of church versus state. now onto school choice, governor, this is an incredible message from condoleezza rice. i want our viewers to listen and i will get your thoughts on the other side. >> if you are really wealthy he will send your kids to private schools. who is stuck in failing neighborhood schools? poor kids. how can you say you are for civil rights? how can you say you are for the poor? when you are condemning those children to not being able to read by the time they are in third grade they will never read. >> such an important message and now louisiana the 11th state to pass universal school choice, how is this going to improve things, governor? >> look i think condoleezza rice makes my point. she says it very well. look, at the end of the day public schools are funded on the backs of taxpayers. those taxpayers are parents too. we want money to follow the

child. the most important voice in a child's education are parents. and they should be in control. interesting thing too, none of the other states that have engaged in this type of experiment has a public school close. let me repeat this not one state has that repeated what louisiana did just this week engaged in giving parents more control over their tax dollars and their child's education as a public schools for custom in those states failed. so again, is starting to become this old rhetoric and at the end of the day we are to lift. we are looking to educate kids and get back to the basics. that's why we put the ten commitments back in schools. >> sandra: on that note can i follow up on that? because chatting amongst ourselves and we have seen a lot of debates out there. like i said, you've really got a conversation going here, governor. are there checks and balances on this? do you have people who will go walking into the public schools

and making sure they have the ten commandments? to expect the schools to follow through on this end if they don't are they punished somehow? how does this work? >> no, look. again, this just says if someone donates it's not mandatory that the schools go out there and purchase them. but if someone donates it in fact right after i signed the bill i had a gentleman say i want to put up $10,000 to help support the printing of the ten commandments and other documents we can put in the schools and offer to the schools. if he does so and we make them available those schools can take them and they can post them. so, again, this i think there are many schools in the state of louisiana that are going to take advantage of this. and i think it is a step in a positive direction. it says we understand where the foundation of laws are and we are a nation of laws and not of men. >> sandra: let me challenge you on this then if someone in those schools comes from a different religion or background

and they want they are rules, their covenant, they want goes up on the wall can a group come in and put the case for that? >> they would have to make that case to the legislature and it would have to meet the criteria of the statute. the interesting thing about the first amendment and i heard it in one of the comments that you played is it is the separation of church and state. i challenge anyone who says that to go find me those words in the first amendment. they don't exist. it's a metaphor that was breathed into the first amendment by liberal supreme court in the 1930s. and so again, this nation, look at all the documents. all the founding documents of this nation. they were based on judeo-christian principles. we have it on our money. we have it all over our capital. we have it in the supreme court. it is those who want to extract that out of the foundation of this country that really and truly want to create the chaos that ultimately is the demolish

of this nation. >> having spent so much time in louisiana it is so important to you as well and we appreciate you joining us. as it has ignited quite the conversation in this country. thank you so much, governor. >> thank you, sandor. hope to see you for the lsu game. >> sandra: absolutely go tigers thank you, sir. all right, aishah? >> i think this whole climate change dialogue is not going to work i think it's been used the last few decades. i think we should address it directly what it which pollution. >> aishah: that's the terminator speaking out on the politics of climate change and some voluble democrats are now moving away from biden's electric vehicle push. what does that mean for november? >> sandra: and chicago's crime crisis taking a tragic toll on many families the mayor helping out victims but is he making the city and he saved her?

her uncle's unhappy. i'm sensing an underlying issue. it's t-mobile. it started when we tried to get him under a new plan. but they they unexpectedly unraveled their

“price lock” guarantee. which has made him, a bit... unruly. you called yourself the “un-carrier”. you sing about “price lock” on those commercials. “the price lock, the price lock...” so, if you could change the price, change the name! it's not a lock, i know a lock. so how can we undo the damage? we could all unsubscribe and switch to xfinity. their connection is unreal. and we could all un-experience this whole session. okay, that's uncalled for. in the nation campaign against pro-life pregnancy centers, healy wants the little dollar campaign that claims crisis why are they causing a lot of concern question marks because this is a taxpayer-funded campaign. many of these centers are faith-based including one which the archdiocese of boston actually operates.

>> sometimes they use fear or outright lies to influence decisions that abortions can cause infertility. >> the answer on social media and transit hubs were launched last week by massachusetts catholic governor moore healy and the department of public health part of the push warning about the dangers of pro-life pregnancy care centers or crisis pregnancy centers. but pregnancy centers are crying foul saying the states campaign is misleading women in order to promote abortion. because they continue to push radical abortion agenda, extending removing any obstacles to abortion for women. it would appear they just don't want any competition. >> the campaign comes a state lawmakers have a build to deceptive pro advocates say it targets free-speech of pro-life

centers but not abortion cli clinics. some pregnancy centers plan on launching a counterattack with their own ads and also may take legal action for what they say is the state's misinformation about what they do. and attorneys general for new york and california have both targeted pregnancy centers in their states suing some centers for misleading statements about so-called abortion pill reversal treatments. >> sandra: lauren green thank you so much. aishah? >> aishah: chicago's crime crisis has hit a new low. 70 people shot in the city just last weekend. 70 americans are dead. the violence has gotten so bad that chicago mayor brandon johnson, listen to this, he expanded a program to get families $1500 to cover funerals of gunshot victims. so the city is paying families to bury their dead.

they also get $1,000 to cover hospital bills and housing. welcome to chicago. let's begin pastor cory brooks who i'm sure is stunned and frustrated with what is going on in the city. how do you feel, pastor, when you see the state of the city now to where it is not even about the money, okay? $10 million set aside to cover the cost of funerals. it's not about the money, it's about the fact we are here now in this city that we have to do this to help these families. how does this make you feel? >> it's very unfortunate that in a city so beautiful as chicago we are having to do this and deal with crime every single day in our communities. we are dealing with individuals who are breaking doing these hideous crimes killing and murdering people and often times they are unsolved. i think one of the things we could do better is it support the police. ever since we've started that

defined the police movement we have been seeing crime in the city of show continuing to go up. we have to have more support. we have to give our police department the tools they need and the support they need, the resources that they need so that we can combat crime, so unfortunate that in this city we are now god having to give victims of crime bond money to help soothe their pain and i can tell you this, there is no amount of money that can soothe the mother that has lost a son. >> absolutely pastor this is what your mayor said about the entire crisis. he does not want to take the blame come here is who he is blaming, watch. >> this crisis did not show up with simply one bullet. this crisis showed up on previous administrations decided to give up on this where these communities. >> so it's the previous administration's fault that's what he says. this is what the "chicago tribune" editorial board thinks. to write for a single violent crime in chicago remains a crisis plain and simple.

there is no higher priority for you, mr. mayor "the point they're making is as a citizen of this country in any city it is your right to, it is you are right to feel safe in whatever city you choose to live in whether it is a big one, a small one, you should feel safe and you should know your children are safe. that right is not being afforded these people in your city. and the mayor doesn't seem to be doing much about it. >> john maxwell said it wonderfully in his book that everything rises and falls on leadership. i believe that wholeheartedly. that regardless what past administrations have done along with the buck stops squarely with the mayor presently. he cannot point the finger, he cannot push the blame towards others. he asked to accept the responsibility for the entire city. you cannot link at the victories but you also have to take the losses. as the leader of the city you have to put your head up you have to take charge and you have to do something about the violence. so i am hoping and praying like

the rest of our city that we will not continue spiraling down on this cycle of violence and that this summer somehow someway prayerfully we will be able to turn the corner. everything rises and falls on leadership. >> aishah: pastor do you think the federal government should now get involved if the mayor is not going to be able to do much other than hand out a bunch of cash to families to bury their dead? do you think now president biden needs to pay attention? >> i think it is long overdue that the federal government looks at the situation in chicago. we cannot continue the cycle of violence because if we do we will continue to have people move out of our city. will continue to have failing in schools and communities. we will continue to see the cycle of people moving out of the city and this beloved city, this beautiful city, is going to start looking more like a short. and that is not something we can afford to happen. >> aishah: 70 people, i mean i can't get over the numbers. sometimes the numbers get lost.

those are human beings, those are families that are just shattered. pastor brooks you are a good man and hopefully this country can come together for the sake of your city. thank you for joining us. >> absolutely, thank you so m much. >> aishah: center i know chicago is very close and near and dear to your heart you lived there many, many years. i lived nearby, my brother used to live there. it's unfathomable to see what is happening in that town. >> sandra: it was preventable and avoidable to let it go away too along to the point where it will be hard to turn things around now and i will tell you why. you've had the residents fleeing for some time now. me of the businesses that have left, the main problem was they could not attract and retain the best talent to which every business has to focus on. you had the hollowing out of the business district, the loop a

area, the mad mile all the shopping they were dealing with the theft for so long, the cr crime, i mean, it is a fraction of a city that it once was. and it is sassy. i hope they can get some leadership in there to turn things around. it's beautiful it's on the beautiful lake michigan. >> aishah: i know it's a gem of the city and it shouldn't be like this. >> sandra: all right i show one of the five americans arrested in turks and the error dealt ammo hunted his luggage learning his fate today. what we now know about when he may come home. >> aishah: plus could the environment and clean energy be the top issues this november? >> both parties are here because there is no republican here or democratic year or a republican war or democratic war. >> aishah: some members of president biden's own party are splitting with them over electric vehicles. we will have more on that next. t and keeping it off? same. discover the power of wegovy®. ♪ ♪ with wegovy®, i lost 35 pounds. and some lost over 46 pounds.

doing here is an update for you one of the five americans arrested for possessing ammo in turks and caicos now expected to go home tonight. 40-year-old ryan watson has been on the island since he was arrested back in april. a pretty long time. madison scarpino has more on the latest with him and also what sentence the judge came up with hi, madison. >> hi, aishah peary watson got a suspended sentence of 13 weeks in prison and a $2,000 fine. again expected to go home tonight that it cools $500 for each of the bullets found in his carry-on bag. watson was freed on bond in april but he was unable to leave the country until now. this is watson right after his sentencing today with his wife. today's sentencing comes days after the turks and caicos government is walking back on part of the gun law peary the

british overseas territory repealed a minimum of 812 years in prison for firearm offenses. watson is 1 of 5 americans recently caught with stray bullets in their luggage. they were all charged under the revised law. other americans got similar sentences, 39-year-old father of two and former professional baseball player brian haig rich only made it home at the end of may. he spent more than 100 days and that two's stomach turks and caicos jail and the court find him $6500. a virginia man was also freed in may after paying $10,000. there is a bipartisan effort from u.s. senators and congressmen to save these americans. they even visited turks and caicos that include senator markwayne mullin from oklahoma. >> there is power in numbers paired without that support i'm not sure turks and caicos would've paid as much close attention to it. i truly cannot imagine the relief on his family. >> watson was arrested when trying to return home from a couple strip. he said he had no idea if you hunting bullets were in his carry-on bag this is him in april. >> i've considered myself to be

a responsible gun owner. i've always taught my kids gun safety. i never saw those bullets in there, and unfortunately they were not only missed by me but also by tsa. speak out two more americans waiting on their sentencing. aishah, sandor? >> aishah: madison scarpino lie for us in georgia thank you. >> i will repeal cook at the joe biden insane electric vehicle mandate and we will drill, baby, drill. we will drill, baby, drill. speech of the debate on green energy could play a deciding role in november in the industrial rust belt states where vulnerable senate democrats are distancing themselves from president's ev push. bjorn always has something interesting to say about this copenhagen consensus president and you know it is good to see

you. how do you see this playing out politically? this has been expensive and not popular. >> exactly. the big problem with electric cars is they are great for some people but they are just not great for everyone and that is the real issue you have to spend a lot of money to get a lot of people to buy in. it's mostly in rich cities and often democrats and of course mostly buying two virtue signal. if you have to go anywhere far you will drive your gasoline car. member, most people about 90% of everyone with an electric car also have a backup gas car they will use when they need to go far. though the reality is even biden's own energy information administration by 2050, the u.s. will just have 12% ev cars. so we have to get back to reality. yes, it is a little part of the solution but it's not the main part of the solution. >> sandra: you know who is an interesting voice weighing in on

all of this, bjorn? arnold schwarzenegger. he is saying these environmental issues should not be political and he said the current climate change dialogue just isn't working. listen. >> i think this whole climate change dialogue is not going to work. i think it's been used the last few decades. i think we should directly. what is which is pollution varied it doesn't matter if the chinese or the russians wherever it is me way we don't agree with them but we all have to bring them in and off to work together with them. >> bjorn? your thoughts? >> well, look. he also says i think all of this has to do with communication. no, it is a question of cost. look. if this was free or incredibly cheap of course everyone would rather not put out co2 which contributes to climate change and is a problem but when you are asking people to take on a much more cost are you willing

to have a car that will not as far and be less convenient and more costly? of course not. most people are going to say no to that. and this is the real point. it's not about medication, is not about rebranding and saying let's call it pollution set of global warming it's about that the solutions we are proposing right now won't work for low. >> sandra: speaking of which there is a new ev survey out for june of 2024. and it shows exactly what we believe we had been hearing and that is the likelihood of current ev owners to switch back to their normal cars. the number is 46% of ev owners are doing just that, bjorn. this goes back to what i swear you have written more about this than anybody else often published in "the wall street journal." innovate around this, don't push it prematurely.

makes cars people want and feel comfortable and safe in. final thought? >> exactly pay look, fundamentally if ev cars were so great that everybody wanted them you wouldn't need to ban them. if you need to ban them, and must because you have a problem. yes, you should innovate, yes you should make them better him and eventually it will significant part of the solution out right now you have two push these really bad cars. >> sandra: i think you mean mandate them, right? >> exactly. sorry about that. i probably did that wrong. >> sandra: but you probably have in your mind of the activists out there trying to ban the gas guzzlers, right? bjorn you are always great thank you for coming on with us. >> they are, a lot of european because he has. >> sandra: always did, bjorn, thank you. aishah? >> aishah: former president trump of the dramatic pitch that could have a major impact on workers who earn tips. how do americans really feel about the idea? charlie hurt is here, he will give us his take. all of the juice next. >> it's always a nebulous thing, pay your fair share, let's be fair to the lowest income workers in america.

officials are investigating a close call again involving a southwest airlines jet. the bowling plan fell less than 500 feet triggering a low altitude alert how terrifying? caught a cow and is in california claudia, anybody hurt? >> no injuries, aishah, but some scary moments for sure when this southwest plane suddenly took a nosedive and flew just a few hundred feet above homes as it was about to land in oklahoma city. take a look at this pretty dramatic video you can see one man's doorbell camera capturing the plane as it gets uncomfortably close to rooftops around his neighborhood. the situation as you mentioned

set off altitude alarms in the control tower and frightened passengers as well as people living in the city of uconn. a quiet suburb suddenly in the path of the southwest jet. this happened on wednesday just after midnight as the plane was on final approach to will rogers airport. southwest flight 4069 was a boeing 737800 and from las vegas. it was for hundred-500 feet off the ground when it buzzed to the local high school. the plane quickly climbed, circled around, and landed safely a few minutes later. in a statement southwest said it is "following its robust safety management system and is in contact with the federal aviation administration to understand and address any irregularities with the aircraft's approach to the airport. a spokesperson for boeing which has been plagued by mechanical failures and safety issues says this particular plane was delivered years ago and is a previous model of the 737 max aircraft that have experienced those safety issues around

adding "more than 6,000 of these planes are flying globally on this airplane has a excellent safety record over decades of operation." the faa is investigating in a southwest spokesperson confirming the airline is cooperating to try to figure out exactly what happened here. aishah? >> aishah: okay claudia cowan for us, thank you very much. speak of those hotel workers and people that get tips you will be very happy. because when i get to office we are going to not charge taxes on tips. on people making tips. >> sandra: former president or by the major proposal to get rid of taxes on tips, the plan sparking a campaign with people putting no taxes on tips and vote for trump on them. this is really happening. charlie hurt is here, "washington times" opinion editor and fox news contributor. i mean, this is becoming very popular and if you go on social media right now, charlie, people are posting pictures of

these receipts everywhere. >> this is kind of how trump works. he talks to people. he listens to people. when he hears complaints from people, it takes exactly 3 minutes to get from his ear to his mouth at one of these rallies. you wind up with a policy like this. a proposal like this which makes a lot of sense. a lot of people like it. i think i wish more politicians who are actually listening to the people that they were talking to on a camping trail but that is like for bowden in politics today. >> sandra: charlie, actually heard i don't how true this is so i think it happened on the golf course so many came up to him and started talking about the tip issue. i wonder if he will bring it up in the debate coming up next week. this is a big make or break moment for both of them because right now the polls are so interesting and wild. they don't seem to be changing. these two are within the margin of error in just about every

poll that have come out recently here. so this could be a big make or break moment for them it's called rove stomach, karl rove last hour listen to this. >> this is a tight as it's a grace. trump does not have to win the popular will vote to enact the election that's what happened in 2016, lost the popular vote but one month electoral college but it does show you the race is tight and it has tightened up a little bit after the may 30th conviction of donald trump. >> sandra: charlie both of these men are trying to expand their maps which is also very interesting to watch. trump is eyeing virginia now, biden is betting on north carolina in case any of these other swing battleground states like michigan, wisconsin, pennsylvania, in case they go sideways. what you make of the strategy? we are still about four months out. and they are looking at states that normally don't go for them. >> it is still early, i think a lot of people haven't delved into the election and i think what you're going to see the big difference between the two sides is you are going to have

joe biden and democrats doing all they can to make this a personality race about donald trump. and on the other side donald trump is going to try make it all about issues like taxing tips for waitresses. and this is a real problem for democrats because it's a very popular idea. in fact if you go through the entire platform, whether it is enforcing securing the border or drilling for oil, lowering gas prices, all of these things that donald trump is championing, we are talking 50, 60, 70% popular votes issues. so if donald trump can succeed at making it about those things, i think you are going to see that open up. if it goes the other way, maybe it goes the other way. >> sandra: so ted cruz had a prediction about just how popular this is and the impact it could have politically. >> there are a ton of different

industries that tips provide vital elements of their compensation whether you are a waiter or waitress whether a bellhop or bartender whether you are a barber or hairstylist, whether you are a taxi cab driver over driver. there are a lot of folks working currently hard on average, tipped workers make about $6,000 in a given year max from tips. right now they have very onerous recordkeeping requirements that doesn't make a lot of sense. i think this is a manifestation of how today's public and party has changed. >> sandra: the idea here, charlie, that i brought up with another guy wearing last hour charles payne is that the goal of former president is pushing out there is for more workers to keep their hard-earned dollars. why? because they will spend that money better than the government. final thought to you, ted cruz

says this could single-handedly win him the doubt. >> i think without a doubt and a lot of other state he take away all the noise at the end of the day donald trump's primary message is one for helping people who work. that is the thrust of his entire campaign from 2016 which is why he stole so many of those working-class voters from democrats in 2016 and with things like this i think he can do it again. >> sandra: i always say no matter what the party americans want a business friendly environment. happy summer to you, charlie. >> great to see. >> aishah: great to see you. >> sandra: diamonds may be a girls best friend but there is an alternative that could give the rock in a run its money will allow gerri willis live from new york city jeweler on this. what are you looking at there, jerry? >> sandra i have to tell you man-made lab grown diamonds can stretch your bling budget, look at this. we will tell you how to do that after the break. ♪ shine bright like a diamond ♪ ♪ shine bright like a diamond
