"the evening edit" starts now. ♪. elizabeth: okay, senator joe manchin denies reports he may leave the democrat party. whether true or not, it raises again the big d.c. story that the media won't discuss. how far off the rails have democrats have flown. president biden's approval rating sunk to another new low. tonight the crank outpost of the far left ruining the democrat party. look at just this. more white house officials mocking, making fun of quote, high class problems. talking about empty store shelves because people are

splurging on luxury goods like bread and milk. other white house officials are worried. they're reportedly talking about, even calling in the national guard but not for the border. for the supply chain crisis. because it is about to hit thanksgiving and their poll numbers even harder. joining us tonight senators mike braun and marsha blackburn, former white house covid official brett giroir. economic expert liz peek, jim trusty and former dhs official chad wolf. despite all the problems at home president biden and his cabinet show they claire about the climate crisis, by flying, not teleconferencing. they are are flying polluting jets. taking suv motorcades to a u.n. climate junket where they will lecture you to stop polluting. you must accept their carbon taxes because you are dei fromming the planet. democrats irs power grab. the same democrats telling you

their government blow out cost nothing. they tell you the irs should track your bank accounts to pay for it. what about first cutting hundreds of billions of dollars in government waste? biden officials today again before congress trying to rewrite trump's history and success on covid vaccines. we have more workers around the country, health workers, first-responders and government unions at that are walking out because of biden's mandates. plus the backlash over british spy christopher steele. he is trying to defend as true his debunked trump russia files that he gave the fbi. it is worse than realized. the fbi fell for it. and the white house racing to cover up with a multitude of spins and a fog bank of rhetoric the border crisis. arrests are highest since the 1986 amnesty bill. senator ted cruz has a fix. put migrant points of entry what he calls fancy democrat enclaves. we've got his list.

i'm elizabeth macdonald. "the evening edit," it starts right now. ♪. elizabeth: welcome to the show. you're watching the fox business network. we begin with the news that top democrat senator joe manchin is denying he is leaving the democrat party but someone floated that trial balloon to the media. all this as there is growing concern in washington that the supply chain crisis won't just hit christmas. it will start hitting hard thanksgiving, possibly long airport lines because of biden's vaccine mandate, pushing out unvaccinated tsa workers. we've got supply chain bottleneckses disrupting everything from home building and auto sales to energy and food prices. maybe even your thanksgiving dinner. let's get to madison alworth. she joins us now from a turkey farm in east new jersey, with more. madison, good to see you. reporter: latest victim of the supply chain crisis could be

your thanksgiving turkey. stores are warning there may be short supply. getting message out to consumers now so they can plan ahead. another thing to plan for for your turkey to cost more. thanksgiving is not immune to inflation. if you can get your hands on a bird "consumer reports" says you will pay 10 to 15% more than last year. but that is not stopping consumers from buying. i'm here with ronnie lee, the owner of lee turkey farm. what are you hearing from customers? are they ready for big thanksgiving dinners? >> absolutely. quite a change from last year. reporter: you told me you're seeing new customers. why are they coming to your farm? >> they see there is supply chain problem and don't want to be caught up in thanksgiving. reporter: not only time to get your thanksgiving turkey but more money. elizabeth: madison, thank you so much. president's approval rating hit a new low, 37% job approval rating in quinnepiac's poll.

fox news has a poll with 39% approval rating. quinnepiac show 52% disapprove the president's performance. these numbers started to slide after the president's botched exit from afghanistan. joining us now he is indiana senator mike braun. great to have you back on, senator. the economy is the biggest concern. why is the president, majority of his cabinet flying on a junket to scotland for a climate conference? >> liz, i've been here a little under three years. the economy was so good pre-covid. i ran a business for 37 years prior to coming here and things were working. when you listen to the litany of what you just went over it would be hard to imagine even if you were trying to do it on purpose how much you could take what was working bell -- well and destroy it. things like climate. when china is building a coal-fired plant weekly, we do the things to pull the rug out

from underneath the like the keystone xl pipeline, get rid of drilling on federal land, gas price alone, along with those empty shelves you were showing, could do him in. when you look at the host of other things from afghanistan, to the border to vaccine mandates. that is the biggest issue i'm hearing from back in indiana. companies scared to death when that actually hits. we haven't seen the details. federal employees have been calling me. november 2nd, it is either get the vaccine or lose your job. that is sad stuff. elizabeth: i mean why not the jobs summit or inflation summit or we're talking calming peoples concerns about the vaccine mandate? we have historic 100 ships stranded offshore in california. stores shelves are emptying out. we have more, bad news from the white house, a whopping 73% of people say the condition of the economy is only fair or poor. how is the president going to sell build back better from

scotland? >> that is the thing about democrats. when they get the opportunity they go for broke and generally they get so far ahead of their skis they get in contradictions like you have just described. climate is going to be an issue we all have to contend with to some extent. we can't be the party of no, i'm not interested but you don't purposely do things that not only are bad optics but don't make sense and biden hats done that not only on climate. he has done it on the economy which when i ran in 18 the border and the economy were the two big issues. they are now all back up there. think about it. lowest border crossings in recent history, 45-year low with trump's policies, stay in mexico and the border wall. elizabeth: yeah. >> you take the economy and everything you do, they're wanting to federalize, replace the productive economy with the federal government. it will never work. elizabeth: we've got supermarkets like albertson's

raising their prices. so is proctor & gamble. we have federal reserve officials concerned that inflation is not as transitory as they were talking about. there is talk the fed could raise short-term interest rates earlier than expected to cool off heating up inflation. but i want to turn to this. the white house press secretary jen psaki was asked by a "new york times" reporter about the shipping delays. let's watch the press secretary's response here. watch. >> crystal clear that things were not improving on supply chain. people couldn't get dish wars earns and furniture and treadmills delivered on time. not to mention all sorts of other things so why -- >> tragedy of the treadmill that is delayed. elizabeth: okay, listen we get it it is tough to field a lot of questions day in, day out. there is just concern after white house chief of staff ron klain mocked the shortages as a quote high class problems, that the messaging needs to be more focused i think, right? the reason for the bottleneckses are the pandemic shutdowns that caused a trucker shortage.

we have 80,000 shortage of truck drivers. we need 90,000 more. we don't got them. >> a third of my companies employees i ran before i became senator were truck drivers. that was a chronic issue before. again they try to blame it on whatever they can find as an excuse and it is a policies that were put in place when you try to shut down the economy as your main answer to dealing with covid. we should have all taken it seriously with respect. i toured businesses throughout indiana. they were keeping employees. keeping customers safe. and then, had to deal with the issues of supply chain disruptions. so it doesn't add up. elizabeth: the shutdowns were incompetent. it was the wrong thing to do. the fear was that democrats were so quick to pull the trigger on that. you don't hear about the attacks on florida governor ron desantis because covid cases and hospitalizations are plummeting right now versus august.

florida governor ron desantis, come to florida. use florida's ports. don't use california's ports. california is cracking down on diesel trucks. california is making expensive to replace and upgrade to the green energy trucks. they were also moving to outlaw owner independent, owner operators and independent contractors, mom-and-pop truckers. i mean that is what california is doing. it is hyper regulating an going after truck drivers who we need to to unplug, unclog the supply chain. your final word, senator. >> so what you're seeing playing out is reflexive action by democrats want towing grow their growth business the federal government. you get all the stupid silly decisions. and it went in spite of in many cases just because the trump economy was working, who knows when this will get cleaned up and how long-lasting it will be. inflation is probably the most sinister thing of the whole

disaster that has been, you know, trotted out by their bad decisions. elizabeth: you know, the numbers, continue to surprise, the officials we look to at the federal reserve. they're saying whoa, watch out about inflation. senator mike braun, good to see you. come back soon. we love having you on. still to come this hour border arrests hit highest level since the 1986 amnesty bill under reagan but senator ted cruz. he has got a fix he says. put migrants points of entry in fancy democrat enclaves. we have his list. dr. white house covid official, dr. brett giroir. trying to rewrite the success of trump's vaccine. more workers and government unions walking out because of government vax mandates. the story

task force briefing. of course jeff signs opens up saying that the trump administration didn't have a plan for vaccines, couldn't get it into peoples arms. it really makes me sick because these kinds of political lies are mixed with actual public health data occur in the conference. so people don't know what to believe. the facts are there. we spot two vaccines authorized. we bought 900 million doses. 60,000 vaccine sites already done. all they needs to do continue with the trump plan which is what they did. they can't rewrite history and sick ever the political lies and innuendo. they continue to do it. elizabeth: it is about politicizing everything. it is so unseemly to politicize a pandemic that is really turning off a lot of voters out there. look at this, doctor, new footage of first responders in seattle, in olympia, washington, including cops, firefighters, state troopers, marched on city hall to protest the vaccine

mandates in that state. they turned in their helmets, caps and boots. we know 1900 workers so far have been let go. they refused to be vaccinated. only 3% of the total workforce. we're seeing fights ramp up coast to coast. washington, illinois, california, new york city, massachusetts. first-responders are threatening to quit. what do you say? >> i say the fact that the administration needs to resort to vaccine coercion, that is what it is, lose your job, lose your family, lose your home, unless you get vaccinated is really just sad. it is a lack of good messaging. secondly it is unnecessary, because many of these individuals already had covid. natural immunity is, it is at least at equally protected as vaccine immunity. there is not a single study published that shows vaccines are better than vaccine immunity. i support vaccines. please get vaccinated, even if

you had it already, one dose will help you more but these are alternatives. finally the administration needs to do the calculus. is it really better to keep a person who is a first responder who already had covid from responding to that heart attack, responding to the fire? they have to do that calculus. i think if you do that calculus you don't do this. elizabeth: that is the point. why not test for first-responders antibodies before you fire them, right? the supreme court has upheld the state of maine's vaccine mandate for health workers. they risked getting fired if they don't comply. they are getting vaccinated. they have a shortage of workers, nurses there. we could see even more moves like state mandates for vaccines. your point is well-taken by testing for antibodies too. now you have chicago, they may lose a third of its police force, those cops there say they may have antibodies, a lot of them say that and they may walk off the job because of this.

listen to the chicago alderman because of this. >> i think she is aware of the situation we're in right now in terms of the potential impact on public safety. we're already short police officers. we're down about 20% from where our peak staffing levels were a few years ago. we can't afford to lose 1000 police officers. we can't afford to fire 1000 police officers over an impasse like this right now. so i think the mayor is aware of that. she is an untenable position as far as trying to bargain her way out of this but frankly she put herself in that position. elizabeth: government workers and unions in new york city may sue over the vax mandate. you hear it. health pros said you don't have the freedom to exposure other people to a potential deadly disease. that is not what issue we're talking about. we're talking about testing for antibodies. your word on that? >> so look, vaccination is a means to an end. it works very well to protect you and others from the disease but natural immunity also achieves that end. i think we ought to admit that,

allow that, let more people go back to work. i think if the cdc were honest with the american people that natural immunity is okay. it is not a political statement. it is not a partisan statement it is public health fact. if they said that i think we would be in a much better place all around. elizabeth: what is happening, democrats questioned about it, are storming out of interviews. terry mcaulifee stormed out of an interview. the reporter asked tough questions. he asked about the support for vaccine mandates. watch this. >> we're over. i gave you extra time. come on man. you should have asked better questions early on. you should have asked questions your viewers care about. >> well, we did. elizabeth: well we did. the viewers do care about vaccine mandates and everything else he was talking about, about defund the police and the like and his education policies. what is the democrats bullying, storming interviews and storming out as the president has done? >> i think public health

officials, the president, public health officials need to be honest, they need to be transparent and they need to be humble. trust american people with the information. give them the right information. that is what i believe. that is what we always stood for. almost 81% of americans now say we get a vaccine, overwhelming there. probably rest have had natural immunity. elizabeth: dr. brett giroir. great have you on. come back soon. >> thank you. elizabeth: backlash against the british spy christopher steele, he is trying to defend as true his due bunked claims about trump-russia collusion. we're finding out it is much wore than we realized. up next, liz peek on the democrats power grab, if the democrats spending costs zero as they claim, why do they want the irs to spy on your bank accounts to find more money to pay for it? why not look in the mirror to attack government waste? the story next.

elizabeth: welcome back to the show, look who is here, fox news contributor liz peek. liz, you know what? this democrat irs power grab spying on our bank account transactions, the same people telling you their government blowout costs nothing, costs zero they're also telling us that the irs should track our money to pay for it. by the way going after government waste? show the government waste we

found? what about that? can you square all of this? it doesn't make any sense. >> liz, let's face it, all of this is dishonest. this $3.5 trillion spending package is being whittled down now, costs exactly that, $3.5 trillion. this is the equivalent of the government rooting around in the sofa cushions to find money to pay for it. they want us to believe there is so much tax evasion going on, if you begin asking banks to report various kinds of transactions they will find it that will pay for the bill or help pay for the bill. the problem is twofold. this is another very divisive message from the biden administration trying to convince people, wealthy, successful americans amongst us are basically tax cheats. there is no evidence of that. they have not presented anything but a 7-year-old study which is very inconclusive and totally out of date to make their case they will spend, find tons of

money in this way. and i think he will really, loading the number which makes them able to spend more. in other words they have to come up with revenues to pay for this bill and they can't do it. to your point, on the fraud and waste front, liz? yeah, let's pay some attention where five trillion dollars already spent and being spent is going. we know, for example, that unemployment benefits, almost every state had billions of dollars of fraudulent claims for unemployment benefits. ppe payments have been riddled with fraud. there is no way even "the new york times" has admitted there is no way to oversee all of this spending. so it is really just totally dishonest. elizabeth: it is totally dishonest. yeah we agree with you. they will look at, we reported a month ago, they are going to look at it, look at venmo, paypal payments. look at republican senators going after this issue. watch this. >> it is a stupid idea that i

hear from iowans all the time, that they don't want the peering eyes of the irs snooping on them. the middle class is going to be hurt as a result of this. it isn't going to be billionaires. >> do you folks really want to live in a state where the government knows everyone of, intimate details of your life including finances? if you do, i hear china is beautiful this time of year. >> this proposal will affect almost every single american, not just the average american. the vast majority of americans have accounts that will go through $600 in a year. if they raise it to $10,000, it will still capture everybody. and every small business. and you have to ask yourself for what purpose? elizabeth: you know what it is, liz? it is data mining. it is like the patriot act, let the nsa do data mining. comptroller of currency tom knee

president biden wants, she wants all the bank accounts at the federal reserve. that would be invasion of privacy on steroids. they could watch our bank transactions. people are scared about the power grab for control. to your point, democrats like jen psaki, david axelrod, don't look at numbers, don't talk about the numbers of our spending. it is unappealing. your word on that. >> just talking about the concept. liz, we know this is an invasion of privacy. by the way it is incredibly complicated. they're supposed to winnow out only transactions, not wages and salaries but transactions. for example if you move money from one account to another, that will show up as sort of a red flag that will flag you as possibly having income from unauthorized sources that you're not paying taxes on. it will be a false red flag but they're are all kinds of problems with this. i think, look, the other thing is, we know the irs isn't secure. there have been all kinds of

data breaches with the irs. and a couple times now republicans have charged the irs with using targeted information gleaned from irs statements to go after conservative groups. so nobody is going to like this. i really think this is overreach by the democrats, incredibly unpopular suggestion. elizabeth: it is really striking that they're even talking about it. you know, because, as you know i've testified before congress about irs and tax reform and i talked to irs workers. they don't like it. they hate it. by the way the bank fees will go up, right, liz? we're talking 124 million bank accounts that banks would have to give information over to the irs. going to cost the banks money. your final word? >> again, it is not just the grand total of ins and outs of your account they will be reporting. they will have to be discriminating separating out various kinds of funds. this is not a slam dunk. this is not an easy thing to implement. by the way, i think it will not generate the kind of revenues

they're talking about. i think they just want again to position americans successful americans as being tax cheats and people who are not paying their fair share. i think it is just really sort of incomprehensible really. elizabeth: feels really cynical. liz peek, good to have you back on. we love having you. liz is a great writer. read her columns. she is terrific. we're coming out of the bottom of the hour. you're watching the fox business network. later this hour, border arrests hit the highest level since the 1986 amnesty bill under reagan. senator ted cruz says he has a fix. put migrant points of entry in democrat fancy enclaves. we have got his list. where is aoc crying at the biden cages that are pretty crowded? coming up senator marsha blackburn on this story. despite all al the problems back at home, president biden and his cabinet showing they care about the climate crisis. they will will not teleconferent

they need to stay home. they need to teleconference. all of these big private planes taking all of these dignitaries, by the way they can't fly with other people? they have to fly on their own. what you see is how hypocritic this is. so that people know it is really not about saving the planet. it is about saving their hides. what they want to do is destroy this country and then build it back the way they want it which is a socialistic government. elizabeth: senator, climate czar john kerry, already has been criticized for his personal family jet that has flown to sun valley and martha's vineyard. there is that. there is also this. why is the transportation secretary pete buttigieg going in the middle of a supply chain crisis? why is the cabinet going when we have so many crises back home? >> and you're exactly right. we've got crisis all over the place. buttigieg has been out on paternity leave.

he needs to be dealing with the ports. whether it is the 157 ships that are out at long beach or it is the port at charleston, or at savannah. there are supply chain problems. we even in memphis have an issue with both export and import because of the chassis shortage. this is something that needs his best efforts for the good of the country. elizabeth: to your point, there is that, so it is hitting you know, cities like memphis and other cities across the country. and then, we're going to start hearing about gas taxes and carbon taxes with this climate conference coming up. we already have the white house and democrats want to tax low income workers. according to joint committee on taxation. you know, after all of this, the biden energy department is saying, yeah, oil and gas will stay with us, part of the energy complex for years to come. how do you square that? >> well you can't square it.

you can't square up that circle. they're running in circles. and what we know is, they keep saying, oh the middle class won't pay any taxes at all which the american people have figured out as false, and the joint tax committee has confirmed that. every time you pay more in gas, you're paying more gas tax. every time you pay a cigarette you're paying the nicotine tax. these guys are looking for everywhere they can to put in a tax. and then they turn around and lie to the american people about this. continuing to say, they're not increasing taxes. $3.5 trillion bill will cost nothing and the american people are saying, we know you're lying! they know this. they have figured it out. people are smart. elizabeth: all right. senator marsha blackburn, so are you. good to have you on. come back soon. still to come border arrests hit the highest level since the

elizabeth: welcome back to the show former federal prosecutor jim trusty. jim, a "quinnepiac poll," a new poll shows the majority of americans do not want former president trump to run again. they doesn't like his behavior and statements around the capitol riots. there is that. there is also this. christopher steele is trying to fix his reputation. going out in the media defending debunked anti-trump dossier. reporter john solomon is digging

into the documents in the government. he is finding in court cases too steele's own lawyers admitted in court steele did not validate or verify his own antitrump research. it would not pass an accuracy test for a court of law. james comey months later testified they couldn't validate it. okay, where is the media pushback and this on steele and what the fbi did here? >> well, there is utter silence except for a few folks like yourself and this network and fox. steele did things that are outrageous. the bottom line he can go on the softball tours of interviews where he just kind of lays out, well you can't prove it is totally false. the problem is, he is completely discredited as someone who made stories up. who doesn't have any sort of validity to the subsources. who was fired as an informant but i have to take issue with you on one thing, lead. the started off with the intro, that the fbi fell for it. though didn't fall for anything. fired him as a informability.

knew he had reliability problems but still chose to use him to get inside the trump campaign that is the historic low of fbi behavior at the jim comey level being ignored by some people in this country. elizabeth: we hear you. it is disturbing. we talked to fbi agents. they find what happened with the china chain of command going through the dc politicized office. it should have been put out in the field, of new york and other bureaus to track down what it is going on. it was stage managed by the d.c. politicized office. that is how agents have talked to us. steele owes own lawyer even said in a court case that "buzzfeed" should not have run the story on this unverified information. an internal fbi spreadsheet that tracked every statement in the steele dossier found that the vast majority was disproven, never verified or was internet rumor. so, we hear your point. hear is the thing. here is what is going

underreported, jim. that u.s. intelligence warned the fbi weeks, within weeks of them getting the steele dossier, that it was loaded with russian disinformation. your word on that? >> well, that is the thing. all these things that are slowly trickling out over time at the expense of jim comeys, andy mccabes, peter strzok's in the world were known to fbi leadership. they knew there was motivation for hillary clinton to create this scandal. they knew steele was fired. they knew information was from subsources totally uncontrolled by the fbi. they don't like subsources. they want primary access to address credibility. all the red flags were in place they chose to create a new set of rules because donald trump was the guy they cared about. elizabeth: steele's primary sub-source was suspected of tied to russian intelligence. was even the target of an fbi intelligence probe. even friends of steele raised concerns what he was doing. talking former national security

council expert fiona hill. fiona hill was worried about it. she thought it was a rat hole. that is was russian disinformation. fbi's own bruce ohr said this is wrong information. to your point they ran to it to get vice is a wiretaps meant for terrorists to go after the trump campaign. your final word on that? >> steele went to the media in violation of his agreement as an informant. planted the same ridiculous sources he came up with sub-sources. planted media stories. fbi took that in a fisa warrant in steele is corroborating some of the information. this is the most circular false thing you can come up with a federal judge. they signed on for that lie. they should have some consequences. >> the other fallout too, jim, woods procedures were violated. the fbi didn't come in with the body of evidence in the woods

procedures to justify powerful wiretaps that are one hop, two hop, can go from one phone to another phone to whoever else that person is talking to. the woods procedure, not giving material evidence to justify wiretaps also routinely violated. your final word? >> i think particularly after 9/11 we put faith in our federal agencies, law enforcement agencies to have expansive attempts at finding bad guys but we had to trust them and we tried to trust them to basically be fair players when it comes to the court and how they treat individuals. in this case shows that the political, politicized management of the fbi created new rules that trample on over those protections. elizabeth: jim trusty, your terrific. come back soon. up next former dhs official, chad wolf. the white house racing to cover up with a multitude of sins and a fog bank of rhetoric just how bad the border crisis really is. border arrests hit the highest level since the 196 amnesty bill

under -- 1986 amnesty bill under reagan. senator ted cruz think he has a fix. put migrant points of entry in what he calls fancy democrat conclaves. >> they bring terror in the neighborhood through trafficking of humans or illegal drugs. does it get tangled up in knots? or fall victim to gravity? or maybe it winds up somewhere over the bermuda triangle. perhaps you'll come up with your own theory of where the stress goes. behind the wheel of a lincoln is a mighty fine place to start. living with metastatic breast cancer means being relentless. because every day matters. and having more of them is possible with verzenio. the only one of its kind proven to help you live significantly longer

back with us now, former acting secretary dhs. highs not seen since 1986 on the ragged amnesty. we took it about the population of nebraska last year. senator ted cruz introduced a new bill, 13 new migrant processing centers where he says democrat elites host their cocktail parties. martha's vineyard, places like palo alto, let's show this. what you say to this? >> the senator is getting to his frustration the biden administration is not doing more to protect texas along the border and other officials are just as frustrated so the senator is putting forth a proposal to say if we put it in their backyard and make it a little closer to home for these individuals perhaps there will

start caring, perhaps the president will go down to the border. perhaps the vice president will do her job as aborts are as it's closer to their home and in their backyard. i think that's the senator's.he's making this bill and it's good. at the end of the day, but the crying of of our stays in the border and it's not accurate. it's in every community across the country. >> appoints up the bubble washington is in, they act like they are profiling courage. profiling vanity talking to each other but it's not in my backyard stuff. they are making rules for everybody else they don't live by. right now cassandra is saying democrats had to endure a fraction of the suffering families and small businesses had to suffer in south texas and elsewhere, the border immigration laws are being forced, the wall would be built and remain in mexico would be

reimplemented. if there breaking their own laws literally. >> that's correct. if the biden administration cared about texas and arizona and everyone among the border and cared about the community and public safety, issues concerning down there because of this huge migrant surge we've never seen before in the history of our country because of the amount of minors and families and others across the border, if they truly cared, cutesy but different border security and what we have today continue to encourage illegal migration into the united states, stress we've never seen on communities and texas and the people similar cruz represents. >> again, they think they are being historic, legacy making. talking to each other in the same corner that they are doing what they think is best for the country and it not. we have a new poll showing

biden's approval rating is slipping on the economy and immigration and the border is our second biggest concern. this idea they know better, morally superior and sanctimonious when they are doing things like this and hurting the rest of the country, voters are seeing it and senator ted cruz essay where of the democrats who cried at the border? elizabeth warren, aoc, how come they are not at the biden cages? >> they have blinders on, they forgot we have a crisis in 2018 and 19th and we solved it through a lot of hard work but the policies this administration throughout and i agree with the senator, whereas a democrat talking about the "humanitarian crisis" we have going on down there? the covid crisis, national security crisis. acting sec. in 2018 and 19, we hosted all members from across

the aisle but we had a large number of democrats down there tuesday and border patrol facilities two to three hours at a time getting their picture taken and talking. they are nowhere to be found, they don't exist. they're not visiting the border because it doesn't bode well for the message they are trying to bash but i agree. this is what the biden administration designed. >> sources out of central america say it so evil and dangerous to weaken the u.s. border because women are getting assaulted, children getting assaulted, thousands of people are killed along the rocks. when you have secure border, that doesn't happen. we understand humanitarian problems in their home countries but they could get killed along the way and to say otherwise is not reality. your final word? >> is the most inhumane border strategy we've ever seen because it's exactly what you laid out, such inhumane journey they are

encouraging people to take 2000-mile journey to the southwest border they are encouraging people to take, families are separated like never before, minors dropped over the wall and over the border to fend for themselves. >> good to see you, thank you for joining us. you've been watching the evening at it, thank you for watching, during a second tomorrow night. ♪♪ kennedy: all my garden, big news. buckle up, we even have motley crew on the show coming up in a little bit. a great new book out and we are going to get right into this. first, a potentially major break in the search for brian bonner, the fbi this afternoon announced they found human remains in a reserve near the family home. they also found apparently his backpack and notebook. so far, they have not said whether the body is b
