griff: new if violent crimes involving illegal immigrants shining a light on one of the

top issues in the 2024 presidential election, border security. this as president biden and former president trump face off on the topic during thursday night's debate. welcome to "fox news live." i'm griff jenkins. anita, hour two. neither neither i'm anita vogel. great to be with you. new reaction still coming in to biden's performance in the first presidential debate of the year after he and trump blamed each other for the crisis at the border. c.b. cotton is live with with the very latest developments. hi, c.b. >> reporter: hi, anita, nice to see you. you know, some of the latest developments are from right outside boston where a haitian migrant, get, this accused of raping a teen girl, was just released on a $500 cash bail. check this out, corey alvarez was brought into the country last year through president biden's mass parole program which allows a certain number of people from specific countries to be granted two years of humanitarian parole. alvarez pleaded not guilty to

the rape charges back in march, but during a hearing this week with, prosecutors asked a judge to keep him behind bars pending trial. instead, the judge set bail at $500 cash with gps monitoring. i.c.e. did have a detainer on awful less, but a 2017 -- alvarez, but a 2017 court can ruling found state law gave court employees no authority to hold anyone based solely on a federal immigration detainer. alvarez's attorney told the boston globe his client was given bail, quote, due to inconsistencies in the evidence, end quote. nearly three hours away in upstate new york, an illegal migrant from turkey pleaded not guilty this week to raping a teen girl in albany. prosecutors tell fox khan illegally crossed the u.s.-mexico border last year and made his way to the northeast where somehow he was able to obtain a driver's license, according to local reports. retired fbi agent nicole parker says the numbers flowing into

the southern border to not allow for adequate vetting. >> well, you've got millions of gotaways, they have not been vetted, and the vetting system is virtually impossible to do. you have individuals coming across, they are, you know, coming across with documentation that they are, you know, throwing away, right, before they get to the cbp officers, and we don't know who these individuals actually are. and when you check them in the database, the tbi terrorist screening center is only as good as the information that is entered into it. >> reporter: so the new york post is reporting the house judiciary committee just subpoenaed homeland security secretary alejandro mayorkas demanding he hand over several records pertaining to migrants accused of committing crimes in our country. anita. anita: all right. c.b. cotton live for us, thank you very much on that story. griff. griff: anita, a federal p federal judge's ruling on friday approved a request with from the if biden administration to partially end court oversight of

care for migrant children in government custody. the judge agreed new policies set to take effect on monday meet and in some ways exceed the standards established in 1997. joining us now on set, former acting i.c.e. director and fox news contributor tom homan. tom, thanks for being here. as you and millions of americans tuned in to find out what substantive contrast there might be with the policy, president biden sought to sort of take credit for these lore numbers -- lower numbers we're seeing. here's how that exchange went. take a look. >> i changed it in a way that now you're in a situation where there are 40% fewer people coming across the border legally, that's better than when he left office, and i'm going to continue to move until we get to a total ban on, the total initiative relative to what we're going to do with more border patrol and more asylum officers. >> president trump? >> i really don't know what a he

said at the end of that sentence. i don't think he knows what he said either. look, we had the safest border in the history of our country. all he had to do was leave it. griff: tom, your reaction. like, when you watched that and he's trying to take credit and, obviously, he got lost in his words there, but what did you think he's saying? >> well, first of all, he tried twice -- lied twice. when he says the numbers are down 40%, they're not. there's more gotaways. and between the chmv and the cbp1 app a, they're just bringing more in. the statement better than the trump administration? oh, my god. even if the numbers are down 40%, even if they're down 80%, they're still much more than the trump administration had. we had that 45-year low in illegal immigration. it was down 83-90% fend anding on what -- depending on what time frame you look at. he's a stone cold liar. griff: you know, when i heard that and as someone who tracks these numbers every day for fox

news, they are significantly down in terms of encounters. the month of may, 170,000, lowest month fiscal year. but yet it made me wonder, we heard from this administration for three years, president biden saying that we couldn't do anything. he said i can't do -- there's nothing i can do. and yet now all of a sudden he decides -- and, by the way, we're looking now at president biden and first lady jill biden arriving to get on marine one in westhamp where he'll go to a -- westhampton where he'll go to a fund raiser. we'll see if there's any public comments. usually we don't get them when they're fundraisers. but this president said in wasn't anything he could do, but yet now he's taking credit for what he did. why didn't he do it earlier? >> you know, first, he lied to the american people. so did secretary mayorkas. for three and a half years they took no action. nothing to slow the now, right? if all of a sudden the elections are coming, right?

he's hurting in the polls. now lee -- now he's going to do something. i want to be clear. what he has done, even if the numbers went down twice as high, much as he said it does, even if they're down 80%, these are still historic numbers, way beyond what trump did. so, look, he's been unsuccessful on the border. the only reason numbers are down, because they're playing that shell game, putting in different categories, and the country of mexico stepping up and doing enforcement. they don't want president trump to be president because if he's president, they're going to lock that border down which means the cartels lose millions a day. people in the mexican government lose their millions a day. mexico's doing what they can to keep joe biden in office because if joe biden was to win, mark my words, day one, you'll see the numbers climb to historic highs again because the border will be wide open. griff: with, tom, just in the -- well, tom, just in the last two weeks the result of this catch and release policy, you can see here as we watch the president

getting on marine one to go to a fundraiser, in just the past two weeks teenagers raped, teenagers killed, a mother of five, the rapist and killer caught in oklahoma and and, of course, now we're learning of these two cases now in upstate new york. when is it enough, at that what point do the american people demand action is and what, more importantly, can be done to stop this map from adding more names? >> i've spoken to hundreds of angel moms and dads. every one is tragic. i'll never forget figure -- forget the stories i heard. and this administration doesn't care. president trump one wrong. he said killers and rapists come across that a border, they do. not everybody, but many do. border patrol if's arrested over 100,000 convicted criminals, already convicted in the united states. we have just around a 2 million known gotaways. they don't want to be vetted or

for instanced. why? because they're criminals. they're carrying drugs. what they need to do is secure the border and do their job with. a secure border saves lives. griff: let's talk about that. you mentioned on day one if biden gets reelected, the numbers will go back up. hypothetically, if president trump wins and brings a guy named tom homan along who has a lot of experience, what do you do on day one to secure the border? >> end catch and release. put remain in mexico back in play. continue building the wall. walls work. walls save lives. look, trump policies were proven effective. it's not a guessing game. the most effective policies in the history of border security under president trump. we proved their success. turn those policies back on and finish the job. in addition to that, you need to remove those people who have been ordered removed by an immigration judge. you're going to spend billions of dollars to see a judge. if a judge says you must leave, they've got to leave. if you don't make them leave,

then there's no sense in this whole system. might as a well shut down the immigration courts and take the border patrol off the border. those millions being released by the biden administration, they need to be deported. we'll make that happen. griff: the tragic thing of that map we showed of the nearly 10 cases in the past 2 weeks is none of those offenders, rapist, murderers should have been here. you mentioned the catch and release, but let mes also talk about there is the threat to american citizens, public safety and these horrific crimes. then there's the other threat to national security. we learned this past week that the isis-affiliated smuggling network is brought -- has brought over 4000 individuals -- 400 individuals into this country of which a small number according to dhs who briefed me says that, a small number of them, 50 or so roughly, are still loose, at a large in the country. i.c.e. is trying to

track them down, and they could very well be suspects of concern, possible matches to the terror list. but when secretary mayorkas was at the border this week, asked the question by reporter matt finn, he said, no, no, they're not. those are -- not all 400 are suspects. here's a little bit of what mayorkas had to say. >> reporter: dhs confirms at least 4000 migrants with potential isis ties $400 -- recently crossed into the united states. >> that is incorrect. >> reporter: tell us why. >> that reporting is incorrect. we have not identified potentially 400 people with isis ties. griff: are they being honest about how much of a threat we're facing right now? >> no. and he chooses his words. there's no evidence 400 have isis ties. the follow-up question, how many do? how many do you know about? look, this is where i say told you so. the biggest issue with me on

this border, this is the biggest national security threat in the history of this nation because we've got almost 2 million unknown gotaways. why do people pay more to get away? border patrol's arrested 381 on the terror watch list, how many came from a country sponsoring terror? if you think it's zero, you're ignoring the chances and the probability. look, i know -- i can't tell you how many, but someday we're going to find out, and it's going to be a bad day for america. they have yet to take a single action to secure this border. this is a national security issue. this should be nonpartisan. every democrat, republican, independent should say, okay, despite illegal immigration, this is a national security vulnerable. why are we not taking action and securing the border? griff: well, tom, thank you for coming in on saturday to talk about it, and we'll continue this conversation because i think need to continue to talk about the vetting process which clearly is deeply flawed. and don't take it from me or you, that was in the dhs inspector general report we

talked about. tom homan, thanks for being here and have a great weekend. >> thanks for having me. griff: anita? anita: all right. fox news arelater now -- alert now, president biden defiantly proclaiming yesterday that he intends to win the election despite the growing list of names on the left calling for him to bow out of the race. the president and first lady jill biden are attending campaign events in new jersey and new york this weekend. madeleine rivera is live outside the white house with the very latest on this. hi, madeleine. >> reporter: hey, good afternoon, anita. the negative headlines just keep coming for president biden. this is a piece from "the new york times"' editorial board. it calls on the president to leave the race. the board making this very blunt assessment of the president's performance on thursday. the president appeared on thursday night as a shadow of a great public servant. he struggled to explain what he would accomplish in a second term, he struggled to respond to mr. trump's provocations. his appearance overshadowing the campaign's strategy to try and slam trump for the 50 lies they

say he told on the debate stage. but the president made his own misstatements and had to be fact checked too like his claim that he lowered the cost of insulin to $15 a shot. insulin prescriptions are capped at $35 a month under medicare. today the president has three high-dollar fundraisers in the hamptons and new jersey. he has got to soothe the alarm among democratic donors and key voting groups that the president needs to win in november. >> my phone was ringing after the debate the other night of many black entrepreneurs saying, hey, they're done, that this is embarrassing, that that it's unwinnable. >> reporter: the campaign said it's raised $27 million between the cnn presidential debate and friday night. they see that figure as a sign of their grassroots support. as for replacing the president at the top of the democratic ticket, the process isn't impossible, but it would be messy and politically risky and, first and foremost, would

require president biden to leave the race and release the tell gates pledged to him, a scenario his campaign says the president is not entertaining. anita. anita: it is going to be an interesting road to the convention. madeleine rivera, thank you so much. appreciate it. >> reporter: you got it, of course. anita: griff. muck. ♪ ♪ >> joe biden's problem is not his age, it's not his anything really, he's got no problem other than it's his competence. he's grossly incompetent. griff: that was former president trump at a campaign rally in virginia yesterday as "the new york times" is now joining the growing call for president biden to bow out of the 2024 race after his performance in thursday night's debate. christina coleman is following all of it live for us. hey, christina. >> reporter: hi, griff. many media outlets and political analysts say it's time for the president to step aside, and i wish i had a dollar for everyone

time someone said do you think california governor newsom is running for president? he says he's not, but his name is floated around a lot for a possible democratic presidential contender. he's been making moves for months now, he signed a controversial gun control bill in california molded after an abortion law in texas t. he also ran abortion right ads in republican-controlled states, and if he went head to head with former gop presidential candidate, florida governor ron desantis, last year on fox. now though critics can easily slam newsom for the homelessness crisis and crime in major cities in this state including oakland and san francisco, newsom does not shy away from the cameras. he was at the presidential debate on thursday and when asked about replacing biden, he gave this response: >> this is the president of the united states running for re-election. he's our guy. that's part of the diversion tactic. this is intentional. it's complete nonsense.

it's all a side show in order to create anxiety and uncertainty and to weaken this candidacy, so i'm not even plague in the fray. that's not even a question -- playing in the fray. >> reporter: we'll see. another democrat whose name keeps getting floatedded for presidential contender is michigan governor gretchen whitmer who gained a lot of national attention during so covid. among democrats she's a star. she helped flip both chambers of the state legislature blue with her fight for abortion rights and, again, she's the governor of michigan, a swing state which is critical for democrats to win this election. and we can't go without mentioning former first lady michelle obama and vice president kamala harris. both women are very popular among democrats. "the washington post" included them in a list of potential biden replacements in addition to democrat josh shapiro. he won a solid victory for governorship in 2022 in pennsylvania, a purple state, which is critical for the

democrats' hopes of winning the white house this november. griff? griff: christina coleman following all of it and becoming a wealthy woman with all the mentions of her governor out there. anita? anita: still ahead, we will take a look as to why so many multiple shark attacks have happened on both u.s. coasts in recent weeks. and coming up next, fact checking the presidential debate on the economy and inflation. you'll want to stay tuned for that. ♪ my psoriasis was all over. then psoriatic arthritis. who knew they could be connected? for me, cosentyx works on both. cosentyx helps real people find clear skin. and in psoriatic arthritis, can mean less joint pain, and help stop further joint damage. serious allergic reactions, severe skin reactions that look like eczema, and increased risk of infections some fatal have occurred. tell your doctor if you have an infection or symptoms, had a vaccine or plan to or if ibd symptoms develop or worsen. ♪see me♪

around 43% of small business owners in the u.s. were unable to pay their full rent on time. the study says the number hasn't been this high since the height of the coronavirus pandemic in march 2021. >> we're looking also at other states because there's a lot of people that are moving out of colorado, out of denver. a lot of businesses, because the price is just too the high to run business. >> reporter: up to 20 cities coast to coast have seen an increases in rent over the past year. small businesses in las vegas, san diego and washington, d.c. making some of the biggest payments. >> a lot of times businesses opt not to to deal with the rising costs. they opt simply to close. and as you walk along up the street, you will see there are storefronts changing as we speak. >> reporter: the bank of america institute explains rents are pricier largely because of inflation. >> you know, it's always on our mind of looking for another place that's maybe a little bit cheaper, maybe a little bit smaller. you don't see the buildings

growing with the rent increases. say we have the air a conditioner, air-conditioning of a building from the 19800s. >> reporter: a business other than says his store has been open more than a decade. he hopes the city builds more homes in the area so more customers move in. >> until those people are here, it's just wishful thinking. >> reporter: business owners say they've had to raise some of their prices for customers to help pay a bills a little bit, but if rent prices don't go down, they may need to move to cities with a better cost of living. in denver kennedy hayes, fox news. >> we had given them back a country where the stock market actually was higher than precovid. he has not done a good job. he's done a poor job, and inflation's killing our country. it is absolutely killing us. >> there was no inflation if when i became president, you know why? the economy was flat on its back. 50% unemployment. he decimated the economy,

absolutely decimated the economy. anita: all right. did you see the debate the other night? biden and trump both pointing the finger at each other for the persistent inflation plaguing american families. for more let's bring in madison ventures plus managing director and chief strategist officer mitch roschelle. mitch, good to see you today. i saw your post on x this morning. it's the economy, stupid, right? [laughter] >> 100%. neither neither once again. >> and, listen, the people watching that debate know this. this is not news, that the economy today is still not great. credit card debt per family is rising rapidly. the number of americans that have to have two jobs to sort of just make ends meet. inflation is a sticky thing, and the package before you brought me on was about rent impacting businesses. how about rent impacting everyday americans? we have an affordability housing shortage in this country. so for biden to stand there and

claim that the economy today is great, that's just certainly not the case, and i think people watching the debate felt that. anita: yeah. no kidding, of course. and, you know, rent is high everywhere you go, not just the big cities. but let's start with inflation. that's what the two candidates were talking about. each blamed each other for the high inflation, but let's actually look at the numbers here, okay? if let's look at this graph. we have going back to 2017, there you go, inflation was fairly low. it was down to 1.4% when biden took office in 2021. and that was almost a year after covid began. then you see it went as high, the peak there, 9.1, under biden. now it's back down to 3.3% as of last month. okay. so you heard the sound bite there. who was telling the truth, mitch? >> well, one thing i'll say, and i'll get to the who's telling the truth, inflation is cumulative. so the problem with all of those

charts is that's the year-over-year with increase. we're not seeing prices coming down, we're just seeing the rate of prices going up slowing. but we're still talking about things costing 20 more than they cost -- 20% more than they cost when joe biden was inaugurated. in terms of whose fault it is, inflation is very simple. it's the definition that everybody uses, it's too much money chasing tattoo few things. and some -- too few things. some of the money out of the american rescue plan of $1.9 trillion which we probably didn't need was just more money printing that caused inflation to, you know, accelerate. one thing to just focus on also, the fed do did their part in creating this mess by printing $4 trillion plus worth of money that they bought and stuck on the fed's balance sheet. so we just created more and more money to make things feel better and try to stimulate the demand side of the economy. but most of that happened on joe biden's watch.

anita: yeah. and with regard to the fed, we're all still looking for that a rate cut, right? hang on before you comment on that, biden said unemployment was 15% when he took office, but that's not true. it was 6.3%. is and how about this from president biden talking about president trump. listen are. >> he raised the deficit larger than any president has in any one term. he's the only president other than herbert hoover who's lost more jobs than he had when he began, since herbert hoover. the idea that he did something that was significant -- anita: okay. i don't know if you heard all of that a -- [laughter] >> i got that. anita: okay. it was partly true, what he said. fewer people were working when president trump left office a, but there was covid, and that caused a lot of job loss. so what do you think about i what he said right there? >> you know, you have to pull out, and i've seen some graphs on this, you have to pull out the artificial closure of the economy and then the reopening of the economy to compare the trump presidency to the biden presidency in terms of job

creation. because, you know, yes, we artificially stopped the clock in january of 2021 when we had a transfer of power, but the reality is those jobs that were lost were because we had to shut down the economy during that time. anita: yeah. >> so joe biden is taking credit for the reopening of the economy, but as i relates to the job market -- as it relates to the job market per se, the job market was pretty healthy under trump's watch prior to let's say march of 2020. anita: mitch, i've got 15 seconds left. what's the biggest difference that we could see under a second biden presidency versus a second trump presidency? tell it to us in 15 seconds. >> in 15 seconds, if we continue to print money by continuing to spend money that the country doesn't take in in revenue, there's going to be persistent inflation. anita: uh-huh. all right, well, not good news there. all right. mitch roschelle, thank you so much for your insight today. great to sew you.

what do you make of as we enter the summer and people go into the water, and our viewers know i like sharks and support being in the water with them. i'll be in the water with them this week. from an expert opinion, what do people need to think about? how should they interpret the news of these recent attacks? >> sure, sure. well, it's a great question. we are living in a rapidly changing ocean landscape, and we've really done a lot of good conservation efforts to restore these populations of sharks which were previously, you know, decimated. so we have to learn how to kind of better coexist with them. but the reason why we are seeing this kind of increase in activity and some attacks is likely due to the fact that the oceans are in some places recovering which is actually a good sign. griff: it's great news. and, you know, when i am out at the beach in south carolina this week, i often tell people, my children and others, you know, when you see bait fish, schools of bait fish coming closer to the shore, these are some of the things that you really need now

with the fish populations, sharks, whatever kind of fish, you need to really be smart about it maybe and kind of think about the ocean has more animals in there. and and the bait fish, obvious, are on the food chain for the sharks. >> yeah, absolutely. you know, there's just a lot of changes happening right in front of our face, but we really do need to be educated users anytime we go in the water. you know, look out for the signs, you know? going in the water with at dawn and dusk, typically that's when sharks do hunt, they're in hunting behavior that sort of increases. so it's really paying attention to this environment. if we want to enjoy it, we should really respect it and pay attention to those clues, like you said. >> and just lastly, you know, i have had the opportunity, fortunate to go in the water, maybe i'll go with you sometime and when you're in the water and the environment, it's actually a much more less threatening environment than when you're perhaps if surfing or boating, many of these unprovoked attacks

are accidental, if you will. what are some things to consider if you had to pick, like, your top three tips of being aware? >> sure. ill say it's really just -- i would say it's really just watching the kind of behavior of these animals. anytime you're in the water with any type of animal, they're going to tell you if you can get close to it, if you can't. they're kind of like a dog. you can tell should i pet it or not. with sharks you've got to just really be paying attention, looking for signs of their posture changeing. that's usually an indication they might be aggressive. and, you know, done swim next to chum or bait. that's kind of, like, the biggest one. griff: for sure. now, while we don't want to be on the food chain of sharks, sharks have become on the food chain of something else. in a a paper you've just published recently, quite interesting, orcas now are choosing to go after sharks. what can you tell us? >> it's totally fascinating research that my colleagues and

i recently published from mexico. and orcas, also known as killer whales, they are the apex if predator in the ocean. there's reports of them taking down sharks off south africa, but some of the research that we showed from mexico, these orcas are now learning how to hunt bull sharks, black-tip sharks and it's like there's a new sheriff in town, and these orcas are really showing that. griff: what are we to make of that? i think you've probably seen, as our viewers have probably seen, some of these cases you even see these orcas operating in pods to go after ships. there was a story recently on that. and then now, you know, all of a sudden these orca pods are using, i guess you would say intelligence that they have to go after a the second, you know, perhaps top predator in the ocean being great wheats. >> absolutely. -- great whites. >> absolutely. orcas are highly specialized, highly communicative, coordinated, social. they can transmit information, you know, across their family

lines, and they work in pods, like you said. so in order to take down the apex predator in the ocean, you know, you have to be coordinated like that. t just fascinating. the orcas are really are changing their behavior where they're being seen, so they're a real signal to other things that might be happening in the ocean. griff: well, as a giant fan of the ocean, i think it's a fascinating discovery. we wanted to bring you on here. in just the few second i've got left, how can people follow you, dr. gallagher, and where this research goes? >> absolutely. fine us on instagram @bt waves or@dr. austin gallagher. just type in austin gallagher shark beneath the waves, find a way to sign up, get on the newsletter, and you can follow along on the adventures. griff: all right, dr. gallagher. ing thank you for the insight, and i look forward to connecting with you. we'll have to go underneath the waves but maybe not looking for an orca, i don't think. >> no, just sharks. griff: thank you, doctor. have a good weekend.
