other. new york city public schools are bracing for opening day this thursday. 19,000 children in temporary housing are already enrolled. they're almost all migrants. 500 more registered just last week. add that to the vast cost of the more than $ -- 100,000 who have arrived already, and you can understand how democrat major adams is at war with democrat mayor hochul who is not exactly happy with democrat president biden. many chicago 650 migrants are sleeping in police stations, an estimated 5,000 pie grant children have been enrolled in chicago's schools. the kids are already way behind. there is strong local opposition to mayor brandon johnson. in california, gavin newsom runs a sanctuary state, but he doesn't want to admit migrants from texas. there are 11 sanctuary statements, almost all of them run by democratses. when migrantses a arrive, locals question the impact on schools,

medical care, law enforcement and, of course, the cost and who pays. democrats are asking who got america into this mess. the answer is not those republicans in texas, they're dealing with millions on their own border and moving the migrants to states they say they want. they say -- they're moving them to states that say we want migrants. yeah, they want migrants until they don't, and they want biden until they don't. next year we all get to vote. migrants are fast becoming a very big issue, and it does not favor the democrats. third hour of "varney" starts now. ♪ ♪ stuart: brian brenberg is with me again, and he says he's going to stay for the entire hour, what a guy. >> we'll see about that.

map, it's being felt in more places. i was on a flight this weekend heading back to minnesota, very clearly migrants in the line to get -- stuart: really? >> very clearly, yes. and your heart goes out to them because they're trying to navigate, they don't know what to do. i don't know where they're going, maybe they're going to minnesota with me. people are going to see this and recognize that democrats don't have a plan, which is what democrats in blue cities already are recognizing and dealing with and fighting with each other about. stuart: and you've got the cost. the cost of this is being met by people in those democrat statements. >> it is a blank check, stuart. the folks in new york are saying we need more money. they're not putting a cap on it or giving a solution, they're just saying send more money, take more money from residents. nobody wants blank check government. that's what we're getting from these cities right now. stuart: the democrats will not turn around a and say to the president, hey, we don't immediate money, we need you to stop the flow. they won't say that. >> exactly. they're not bringing solutions

to him. they just want the largess. they should go to him and say, sir, go to the border, you, now. stop this. they won't. stuart: if newsom does become the candidate, and i think he might, wonder what he's going to say. what will he saw -- say? >> he can't -- he's coming from the same base as all the rest of them. it's going to be money, money, money, work permit, work permit, that's a perpetuation of the problem. starr s.t.a.r.t -- stuart: fascinating. professor, president biden tried the tout his strong economy. watch. >> there is no quit in america! none! [cheers and applause] finish all i hear from my friends on the other side is what they say is wrong with america. they keep telling us america's failing. they're wrong. i've got news for them, america has the strongest economy in the world right now, today. lowest inflation rate among any major economy. 13.5 million new jobs. america isn't failing, america's winning, and the rest of the

world knows it. that's why our friends and allies are looking to us. stuart: wait, wait, hold on a second, brian. the strongest economy in the world, the lowest inflation rate of developed economies, 13.5 million new jobs. >> okay. the last one's a lie. it's always been a lie, and he keeps telling the lie. the rest of it basically is saying it could be worse. [laughter] and, no, that's not a winning strategy. nobody in america is saying, no, it couldn't be worse, it should be better. it's got to be better, it could be better if we weren't doing what you're doing. i mean, we're talking about america versus communist china? it's communist they that, stuart. we shouldn't be talking about whether we're better than communist china. that's a given. the question is how much better with should we be. stuart: you're with me for the entire hour, you've got 55 minutes -- >> you think i can't -- you throw me these stories, they're blood-boilers. give me something about puppy dogs and lollipops, i'll be fine. stuart: we'll get to that later.

biden decided to take a swipe an donald trump's economic record. what dud he say? -- can did he say? lauren: he kept saying my predecessor doesn't build anything or create any jobs. watch here. >> the guy that held this job before me was just one of two presidents in history -- [background sounds] he was one of -- no, but there is an important point. one of two presidents in elected office with fewer jobs than when he got elected to the office. when the last guy was here, we were shipping jobs to china. now we're bringing jobs home from china. when the last guy was here, your pensions were at risk. we helped save millions of pensions with your help. lauren: but everyone said they were doing better under the last administration. and he bills himself as middle class joe, but nobody's buying that. thed middle class did better under president trump. and then you add in the allegations the biden family

receiving millions and millions of dollars from the foreign officials, and is he really middle class joesome. stuart: yeah. $20 million for his family from foreign sources? really? >> middle class families don't get paid by chinese energy conglomerates and ukrainian natural gas companies. i don't know anybody living in the middle of minnesota getting those checks. stuart: i think the president's on very shaky ground comparing his policy on the economy and the success of donald trump. >> yeah. because people reremember remember that time. we didn't have inflation. we add that growing wages. we had the the highest per capita incomes that we'd seen in this company. whatever else they thought about former president trump, they liked his policy because their families got richer. stuart: lauren? lauren: because of the tax cuts, they helped. >> yeah. lauren: he's able to cite some of these numbers because of the pandemic. but when you factor that out, you really can't make those claims. i mean, there was a major global pandemic that hit our economy when trump was many office. stuart: he's cherry picking time

frames and completely spinning the numbers in a way that almost makes it a lie. >> well, in a way that the everybody can see through, that's the problem. spin that works is what people can't see through. on one, they're, like, what are you talking about? don't try to tell us a different story. stuart: the polls show very clearly the the people know what's going on and will not be distract by the presidential spin. lauren: they're not buying bidenomics, and i -- you get a reminder every time you fill up the gas tank. stuart: i expect to see a lot of oil companies doing very well, oxy peak one of them. lauren: saudi arabia and russia is have announced new extensions to their supply cuts stretching a combined 1.3 million barrels a day production for another three months, is so until the end of the year, and who's to the say it's not going to go in the new year. stuart: if you've got oil at, i think, $87 a barrel and going

up, i've got a production the price of gasoline, now at $3.81, hits $4 a gallon as a national average within weeks. now, that's a prediction -- lauren: well, it's hurricane season too. stuart: what do you say? >> i agree with you, because the the saudis are just sticking with this, cut, cut, hold the cuts, and america can do nothing under bidenomics. stuart: and let's go back, it was the president, president biden, who stopped america's energy independence. we ran the show and you -- now we don't. lauren lauren you know who's pulling back on the big green push? governor gavin newsom in california. stuart: he wants to be the president. lauren: exactly. he's moderating. stuart: lennar, home builders -- lauren: they're down sharply across the board. yield withs are going up, maybe that's worryliesome that mortgage rates stay where they are now and makes homes unaffordable for so many americans. stuart: significant losses right there. let me check the overall

markets. we still see some red, but it's the not as bad as as it was earlier. the dow is off 47, and and we now have the nasdaq turning higher. it's up 202 points and the s&p's up 3 -- 20 the points. scott shellady is with me on the phone morning. we could see the auto workers go on striking in less than two weeks. biden says he's not worried. what say you? >> welsh, he should be worried because, a, it could cost the the economy a lot of money however long that strike goes on. we're seeing that happen in other areas of the economy now. but, b, if it does get solved, stuart, that's wasted money, right many if you're just going to pay somebody more for not doing more, that's not helping production. and that's what everybody misses here. so if we start to pay these people more, that's going to be inflationary, those costs will be passed down to you and i, and they're not actually going to be making more. productivity does not go up with a raise. that's the bottom line here. so he's going to have a problem with the economy however long it

goes on, but you can number two, inflationary once it's solved. stuart: i believe they're looking for 46 over 3 years, i think, which is a really big raise. last word to you can, scott. >> yeah. he's got to be the very careful because they're also asking for a 38-hour workweek for 40 hours, get paid for 38 or 32 for 40. with all the other -- you know what, stuart? you probably remember back in the day when you had in england many in 1973 when they had the shortened the workweek because of the strikes, because of coal miners and the railroads, right? we're going down that path here. slowly but surely, all of these areas of our economy are going on strike. that's a problem going into the election are. stuart: scott, that was the moment i left england, 50 years ago. always appreciate it, thanks for jumping on the phone for us. still ahead, one economist on cnn claims it's pointless to poll republicans on the economy because they don't like president biden. watch this. >> only 7% of them were willing

to admit that the economy had gotten better over past two years. so i think when we ask these questions, people are no longer telling us what they feel about the economy, really they're telling us what they feel about the president. stuart: steve forbes will respond to that. thousands of migrants have arrived in new york city since last year. new data shows some of those migrants have been arrested. we'll tell i you more about that. meanwhile, another bus of migrants just arrived in los angeles from texas. the sanctuary city, l.a., is looking to fight back. tom homan deals with it all next. ♪ ♪

members. the move coming just weeks after healey declared a state of emergency tied to the rapidly rising number of migrants arriving here and stretching the shelter capacity to unsustainable levels. >> i am delivering an urgent and formal appeal to the federal government for intervention and action. we need action to remove barriers and, expedite federal work authorizationingses. we need action and intervention for funding to help us in this time. >> reporter: massachusetts boasts a unique right to shelter law which areas the state to provide helder to pregnant women and families with children -- shelter. massachusetts is spending more than $45 million a month on programs and shelter for eligible families according to a letter that healey sent to homeland security secretary alejandro mayorkas just last month. the administration, the city of

boston recently received a $1.9 million grant from fema to support shelter services, and while the healey administration is welcoming bay staters to -- encouraging bay staters to welcome migrants, prost testers on cape cod took to the street to fight the potential placement of migrants in a yarmouth motel. there are currently more than 6,000 migrant families in these the emergency shelters right now across the state. but for perspective, the border patrol apprehended an estimated 177,000 migrants at the southern border in just august alone. stuart? stuart: thanks very much, molly. right this in the middle of it. thank you very much. yahoo! texas has sent 12 buses filled with migrants to los angeles, and the city may seek legal action against texas despite being a sanctuary city. tom homan with me now. how can sanctuary states refuse to take people? i don't get it. >> well, it's just ridiculous. two points. number one, they come to the california anyway whether

governor abbott sends hem or hay go by themselves. who wouldn't? you can get a job, a driver's license, help with your immigration case, you can get work authorization. they're going to california anyway. they can go to california, get arrested for a serious crime, and the law enforcement agencies in california aren't allowed to work with i.c.e. to get them deported even after they commit crime, so who wouldn't go to california, first of all. and the sanctuary city policies. second point is are they suing the biden administration? because the biden administration has transported over 2 million people in the united states to ever state in the country in the middle of the night. are they going to sue the biden administration because they transport if more migrants to california than governor abbott could ever. stuart: i just want you to speculate for a second. if the governor of california, gavin newsom, ran for president -- and he may -- what do you think his policy on the border would be. just speculate for us, tom. >> i think they're following the

biden plan on the border. look, this isn't mismanagement or incompetence, this is by design. they -- joe biden ran on an open border. he promised he was going to put a top to deportations. he said he's going to stop i.c.e. detention facilities, he's going to give asylum are, he's going to give daca. and when you make those type of propses, people are going to come -- promises. i think it's the the same mantra of open borders because they think, first of all, these millions of people are going to be future democratic voters. joe biden overturned the trump census rule which means millions of people now will be counted in the next census in sanctuary cities which is going to result in what? more seats in the house for the democrats when they reapportion the seats. stuart: good lord. it just goes on and on. do any of the republican candidates meet your standard on how they'll handle the border? >> trump. look, i'm a trump guy, you know that. no one has done more to secure the border than president trump. when i worked for president

trump, illegal immigration was at a 45-year low. illegal immigration was down 83% which means 83 less people were making that dangerous journey, less women being assaulted, less women drowned in the river, less terrorists getting across the border, less women and children being traffic thed across the border. what trump did was unprecedented whether people like him or don't like him. you can't argue the success that he had when he was president. no president ever did the level that president trump's success was. nobody. stuart: tom, i want you to go back to somebody. did you say that 2 million migrants have been flown around the country by this administration already? my question is, 30 seconds, who pays? >> the united states taxpayer. the homeland security said we're not paying for it. you're doing it for grants. they give it to fema, fema gives it to ngo, others, bus contracts out there, the u.s. taxpayer is

paying for all of it. stuart: shocking. tom homan, always on point. thanks for joining us, we will see you again later. now this, dozens of migrants have been arrested at the roosevelt hotel in new york city. what are the charges? lauren: mostly domestic violence. the new york police department has made 41 arrests at that hotel since may when it became a migrant shelter. the new york post is reporting most of those arrests are for domestic violence. just this past weekend a 30-year-old man taken into custody after he was accused of endangering his 11-year-old daughter. no charges were filed. stuart: some new york city council members, they're warning against the push to fast track work visas for migrants. lauren: because if you give them a fast-tracked work visa, you're essentially allowing them to cut the line, and they say that's the equivalent of putting a welcome mat on the border with mexico. so new york city council members worried that that's troubling precedent. my view is they're already here

and they're costly, you might as well have them -- understand this point that the council members are making, but they're here, we're paying for them, you might as well how them to work to help our businesses and contribute to the economy. stuart: i can see the point, because they're not going back, so what are we going to do? feed them, house them, clothe them forever? is it a magnet, just come on more in? >> just think about how any city attracts people. it says we've got affordable housing, and you can get a job here and make a life. so so if new york city says to migrants we'll pay for your housing and give you a work permit, what do you think somebody who's down in mexico or other, ratten america -- latin america, they're going to say, right. let's go there. lauren: maybe you do that, you harden the border. let them cut the line for a work visa, but you have to do the something with immigration policy to stop them from coming -- >> look, if we actually hardened the border, then there's a lot of things we could talk about. but that's the prerequisite -- stuart: job is one is close the

itself, yeah, republicans ignore the fact that prices are up 20% since biden took office, mortgage rates have tripled, delinquencies on credit cards and car payments are going up, banks are lending less because of stupid regulations and higher capital requirements. other than that, the economy's great, stuart. stuart: a pretty long list right there there. [laughter] >> and on the deficit, remember a year ago he said, he calls himself now still the deficit fighter, got the notes mixed up from a year ago until today. even though the deficit now has doubled in the past year under joe biden. stuart: he claims he cut the deficit by $1.7 trillion, but it's just doubled. it's going to be $2 trillion this year, isn't it? >> and the ominous thing is revenues are down. not a good sign for the economy. stuart: well said. now, we've got a new poll, "wall street journal." it shows almost 60% of voters kiss approve of bide -- disapprove of biden on the economy. and in that same poll, many

voters believe the president is too old for re-election. i don't -- i've said this before and i'll say it again, i don't see him researchly being the candidate. >> no. and i think the democrats know it. what they're hoping for is that somehow he lasts long enough to get through the next year, and then he can pull back when the republicans have made the nomination. pull back and do an lbj with. biden says i'm not going to run, i've done great things, then they put in somebody like gavin newsom. the problem with that scenario is i don't think joe biden can get through the next 12 months. i think you're going to get a crisis before the the end of 2024. stuart: not a medical crisis -- >> could be a medical crisis, could be the alleged crimes of the family and the pact that the economy is not quite as a good as biden says it is. stuart: if you do that, you've got president harris. for whatever reason, it becomes president harris. >> but their hand may be forced this which case what they're going to haved to do is say we're going to open it up, open

primary, she can run, anyone can run x they hope that she'll lose in the primary process. stuart: does anyone, brian, think that a this president can still be president six years from now i. >> i've said to you every time you ask, it's going to be biden. they like biden. he's an empty vessel. you can get cone whatever. and, by the way, they want to put harris out there? if i mean, you gave your own reason for why that can't happen. they go to open primary, how complicated is that? americans say, forget it. >> you can do bernie for a weekend but not for months on end. stuart: oh, that's a clever play on words. well done, steve. see you again soon.
