larry: just one last time tonight, stop blaming the unions for kamala-inflation, okay? or the federal reserve money printing or the overspending -- they did it, and they're losing wages down, down, because prices are up, up. stop blaming the unions. they didn't run the government. and never, ever blame liz

macdonald. elizabeth: please don't. larry: don't even think about it. elizabeth: that's right. we love larry kudlow. [laughter] larry, looking forward to to your interview with former president trump tomorrow. that's going to be a hot one. thank you so much. good to see you, a larry. welcome to "the evening edit, requests i'm elizabeth macdonald. >> we still have no power, no water, really no way to go to the restroom. we've lost friends, had rescue people with the national guard yesterday had to the the take people out. >> [inaudible] we don't know -- >> if they're dead the or alive. elizabeth: heartbreaking. a total disgrace. a new firestorm reveals how bad this biden-harris white house really is. hurricane helene, it's fast becoming a bigger scandal than hurricane katrina. dhs secretary mayorkas already impeached, he admits, yes, fema is out of money for hurricane season. right as hurricane helene

victims desperately need fema, but watchdogs warn the biden-harris white house has been quietly diverting fema cash to the illegal aliens and the border crisis they fueled. in moments, senator tom themy tuberville of hurricane-affected alabama, he's going to the take it on tonight. also this. >> senator p on that point, i'd like for you to clarify. there are many cribbing factors to to high housing -- contributing factors. what evidence do you have that migrants are participant of this problem? -- part of this problem? >> well, a federal reserve study that we're happy to share after the debate. elizabeth: guess what? federal reserve officials say, yes, j.d. vance was right. steve forbes here to take that on. plus this -- >> i've not been perfect, and i'm a knucklehead at times, but it's always been about that. elizabeth: okay. wait until you hear tim walz's new defense for why he's been lying to you. joe concha, leo terrell, they are fired up and ready to go.

plus, lawmakers cite election interference p. a judge releases jack myth's concern -- jack smith's 2020 filing against trump. were his constitutional rights violated? look who's here, the one and only gregg jarrett. he's going to take it on tonight. remember when they demanded covid passports from you to get into things like restaurants? a new dhs report, the biden white house literally letting thousands of illegal aliens fly directly into the u.s. on domestic flights with no id, no vetting. former acting i.c.e. director tom homan if here to react to the debails concern details. but first this --, the unimaginable destruction of hurricane helene, the deadliest since katrina. more than 200 dead, hundreds missing. people now dying, trapped, no food, no water, no power. they desperately need fema if aid, but fema is out of disaster funding. d.c. watchdogs warn the biden white house has been quietly

turning fema into a services agency for illegal aliens. let's get right to fox news if senior congressional correspondent chad pergram live from capitol hill. you got the story. what's going on? >> reporter: liz, good afternoon. the department of homeland security says claims that the migrant crisis is leaving dry hurricane resources are, quote, false. that said, republicans asked why there's money for a manmade disaster like the border but not a natural disaster. >> everyone should be waking up this morning outraged by that comment. this is not something that has just happened recently. and now, right now in florida, north carolina, tennessee the, georgia, all of these states are hurting because of this truly natural disaster, not a biden-harris-made disaster. >> reporter: congress loaded fema's disaster relief fund with $20 the billion last week, but a storm of thissing magnitude could exhaust those resources quickly. dhs says money spent on migrants is, quote, not associated in any

way with fema's disaster-related authorities. right now there's a focus on hurricane relief. >> electricity's down, inability the communicate because we don't have cellular connection or broadband. >> reporter: congress could need to fill the disaster leaf fund sooner than later, but helene also dictates that congress approve a larger spending package to get life back to the normal. >> when we get to the recovery stage after we've assessed damage and try to triage things, we'll begin working with communities in terms of housing, housing repair, water and waste water treatment facilities that need repair, electric lines that need repair. >> reporter: now, congressional located $640 million to address the border crisis, but some lawmakers want as much as $3 billion in the next spending bill around the holidays. house speaker mike johnson is touring disaster areas in florida right now.

elizabeth: okay. chad pilgrim, thank you so much. by the way, fema money is for disasters, period. okay. we've got a lot of show for you tonight. watch this. >> we are meeting the immediate needs with the money that a we have. we are expecting another hurricane hitting. we do not have the funds, fema does not have the funds to make it through the season. >> the federal relief and assistance that we have been providing has included fema providing $750 for folks who need immediate needs being met such as food, baby formula and the like. elizabeth: okay. there's hurricane relief, right in that money, and then there's fema money going -- separate money going toward illegal aliens. we've got entire towns like chimney rock, north carolina, wiped off the map. people are dying. they're suddenly homeless. they're stranded. people are reportedly literally using mirrors to flash sos

messages to helicopters to get help that may never come. the southeast literally still underwater. joining us now from senate armed services, coach tommy tuberville. senator, it's good to see you. so about a billion dollars in fema money since last year's been going to the border crisis, basically turning parts of fema into an illegal alien services agency for things like shelter. what's happening? >> well, no organization. we give $20 the billion a year to fema, and unfortunately they have drained everything dry with all the illegal aliens coming in. we've spent $200 billion in ukraine, $2500 a month on all illegal aliens and, liz, we're only giving these people that have lost everything $750 one-time payment. same thing happened in maui. these people in the white house right now could care less about the american citizens. they are just out trying now to just make sure that they look good through all this, but the people in the carolinas and

tennessee are hurting and hurting very bad. elizabeth: okay. so of the billion dollars, fema gave about $38 million to new york city, a sanctuary city. new york city's been handing out free debit cards and hotel stays to illegal aliens. helene victims, critics are saying stop giving tens of billions of dollars in u.s. money oversea, help helene victims now. we should point out fema does limit critical assistance aid to of individuals to $750 each. so, wow, another $50? >> yeah. if it wasn't for veterans and local law enforcement, law enforcement going into these places, people are really trying to help. the average citizen. but the federal government is in such disgrace and out of unorganized chaos,, they can't, they can't get anything right. they're -- let me tell you what they're doing right now. they are taking all the hotel rooms around the carolinas and tennessee the, they're booking 'em for so-called fema

assistance, and there's no place for these people to go that have lost housing. they need to, they need the find somewhere else to live and let these people move into these hotel rooms where they don't have homes. it's a disaster. it's no organization. you have to have something organized for something like this, but mayorkas has been a total disaster. the secretary of homeland security, total disaster for what he has done in the last three and a half years. ask and we have got to get these people out of office because they do nothing right and everything wrong. elizabeth: senator tommy tuberville, come back soon. it's good to see you. >> thank you. elizabeth: to this story, transportation secretary pete buttigieg now says that this massive port if strike could deliver a real punch to the u.s. economy. more inflation, shortages. now the dock workers are striking because his or toic inflation under the biden-harris white house has torched and, you know, basically blown through their paychecks. ashley webster in the port of savannah, georgia, with the story. >> it's day three of the

longshoremen's strike, still no contract in place. here at the port of savannah, the strikers have been walking the picket if lines now sun-up to sundown. the concern is with each passing day, the tightening and squeeze on products coming into the country will get worse. food supplies, auto parts, consumer goods all could be affected, the big box retailers have been able to plan ahead by stockpiling some goods, but those goods will run out quickly enough. it's also bad news for the victims in hurricane helene who are in desperate if need of supply. supplies that could be caught up at the ports. in fact, president biden who visited north carolina yesterday said the port situation could spell bad news for victims of helene. listen to this. >> this natural disaster's incredibly consequential. the the last thing we need on top of that is a manmade disaster, what's going if op at

the ports. we're getting pushback already, and we're hearing i from the folks regionally that having trouble getting product they need because of the port strike. >> reporter: and the port of savannah plays a very important part on the east coast, second buzziest port among those that are shut down. it moves 22 of the container trade up and down the east keys. i want to bring in willie seymour, executive vice president for the ila for the southeast district. willie, how long could this drag on for, do you think? >> as long as it takes for us to get a contract. when we get a contract, we'll be back to going to work. we realize that the american people need to have their products on the shelves and in the house, but until we get a contract, we'll be on this line. >> reporter: are you concerned the longer this drags on, it's really going to hurt the u.s. economy and for those victims of helene in north carolina and georgia? >> well, we look at it like this, if we don't take a stand right now, our children and our

children's children will want to the know what did we do when it was on our hands. so we're taking a stand to fight automation, to fight machines that are going to replace taxes. people pay taxes, machines don't pay taxes. >> reporter: so you're here until you get the contract. >> we're here until we get a contract. >> reporter: so there you have it, liz. and for every day the port is closed, it's estimated it takes five days of recovery, so day 3 means 15 days of recovery, and that number is getting longer and longer. liz? elizabeth: ashley webster, thank you so much. >> we just have a lack of resources regardless of what the pregnant presidential -- presidential candidate and the president are saying. right now we do not have any fema resources that have been allocated. in fact 60% of the people applied have already been denied. >> we haven't seen payment, we haven't seen fema, red cross, we

haven't seen -- we've seen no agencies come through here. most people drive through with their cameras out filming us like we're animals in a zoo and don't stop. elizabeth: okay. those are american citizens victimized by hurricane helene. they're literally running out of time. they're fiting for their lives. -- fighting for their lives. they're asking, where's the government? we need help. let's bring in rnc chair michael whatley. the biden -- it's good to see you, michael. the house getting criticized for mishandling the port strike, of mishandling hurricane helene. michael, what exactly would a trump-vance white house do differently? >> they'd actually be at the white house handling these situations instead of at the beach or on the campaign trail. i think the biggest thing we have seen over the course of the last several weeks is a can dereliction of duty. the fact that when this storm hit, joe biden couldn't trouble himself to come back from the beach, that kamala harris couldn't trouble herself to come back from san francisco where she was raising money.

it shows you the priorities that this administration has, shows you the priorities that kamala harris has. right now we're not seeing a lot of leadership out of the state government. in fact, i have talked to many people on the ground in north carolina. the common refrain that i keep hearing is there is no leadership right now. there are thousands of people who are on the ground who are affected by this. we are seeing volunteers who are showing up, you know? we were seeing even members of congress and candidates who are laying aside their campaigns to the show up -- to show up and try and help people. but what we're not seeing is leadership either from the state government in north carolina or from fema in the biden-harris administration. elizabeth: i mean, the longer it lasts, the the worse it gets for consumers and for the biden-harris white house. it's going to hit the 2024 race. they're not stepping in. are they waiting for gas to go to $10 a gallon or a shortage of medicine? we're already seeing people

warning about the oil and gas industry and goods not coming in. final word. >> i think gina raimondo said it best, we weren't necessarily paying attention to this. and what we have seen is this administration continue to focus on politics rather than on the issues that the american people care about. people care about grocery prices, gasoline prices, housing prices, and right now we have a humanitarian crisis throughout the southeast. and this administration has failed tame and time and time -- time and time and time again to be responsive to the needs of the people. elizabeth: rnc chair michael whatley, thanks for being with us tonight. >> thank you. >> senator, on that point, i'd like for you to clarify. there are many contributing factors to high housing costs. what evidence do you have that migrants are part of this problem? >> well, there's a federal reserve study that we're happy to share after the the debate. elizabeth: there's a lot of things contributing to housing costs. we've got this development, federal reserve officials say, yeah, j.d. vance was right that illegal aliens do drive up

housing costs too. steve forbes will take it on. also this. >> my wife told me my grammar's not always correct. elizabeth: okay. coming up, we've got new sound other than that on tim walz's new excuse for why he's been lying schedule bellishing. -- embellishing. joe concha's going to take it on. and top democrats now afraid trump is gaining with working class americans in the swing states. leo the terrell is going break it down. and the biden white house, they've been letting in thousands of illegal aliens. they're letting them fly on u.s. domestic flights into the u.s., no id, no vetting. remember, they demanded covid passports from you? trump acting i.c.e. direct or tom homan here to react. but first, the party that likes to talk about saving democracy, they're still waging lawfare just about a month before the election. when does it become election interference? fox news legal analyst gregg jarrett, he's going to take it

shot in july. if now to this news, judge tanya chutkan unsealed jack smith's motion showing unusually lengthy details of his 2020 the case against trump. he's trying to assemble evidence to push back on the supreme court ruling that, yes, trump has immunity. joining us now, fox news legal analyst gregg jarrett. gregg, we need your smart legal blaine here. [laughter] trump -- brain here. trump and gop lawmakers saying this is election interference. is it? >> yeah, this has the unmistakeable stench of election interference, liz. there's no other way to the look at it. jack smith failed to put trump on trial in court before the election as he wanted, so now he's trying trump in the count of public opinion to taint voters and throw the outcome in harris' favor. the special counsel writes this one-sided narrative, it's filled with gras i due -- gratuitous

and intentionally inflammatory accusations, some of which are totally inadd mis,. and then he pressures the judge to release it publicly which she promptly did, and, in fact, as some voters are already casting ballot toes. this is a violent of the doj rule and the department of justice manual that forbids prosecutors from taking any that's affects -- action that affects an election and disadvantages a candidate. it's more of the same old lawfare, weaponization of the law, an abuse of power. and this is really, this motion is jack smith's personal campaign advertisement against donald trump, and it's unethical. elizabeth: i moon, yeah. we already have judge aileen cannon if saying he's got no standing, jack smith, because his entire office is unconstitutional. it was released the same day the media was saying j.d. vance released -- beat tim walz in the vice presidential debate.

watch cbs news legal analysts saying the judge releasing this does breach trump's constitutional rights to a fair trial. you're going to hear veteran prosecutor jim trusty say it could taint the grand jury pool. that's bad stuff. that's unconstitutional. watch this. if. >> well, look, here's, here's the simple reason, the media's obsessed with talking about the election of four years ago. i'm focused on the election of 33 days from now, because i want to throw kamala harris out of office and get back to common sense economic policies. [cheers and applause] but i also think you can believe that america needs to have secure and free elections but also a talk about the fact that just a couple of weeks ago democratics -- democrats in the u.s. congress blocked a piece of legislation that would have ensured illegal aliens don't vote in our elections. elizabeth: we're so sorry for that mistake, dear viewer. that was j.d. vance. what happened was we had a cbs legal koren respondent saying

this -- correspondent saying what's happening is the level of detail in jack smith's motion was, quote, inappropriate, that no one -- you don't normally see that level of detail in a motion if filing. and this is worth mentioning, she's saying it looks like it's interfering with trump's constitutional right to a fair trial. >> yeah. this was incendiary storytelling, again, one side. it was done deliberately to to try to smear trump. look, the entire case that smith has brought is based on the claim that trump was with lying when he told officials there was faulty balloting that resulted in the wrong outcome. and he cites all kinds of people. so what? if trump honestly believed and he relied on other opinions that he had won, that's not deceit, it's not fraud, it ain't a crime, liz. elizabeth: gregg jarrett, good to see you. thank ifs -- thanks for joining

i. tune in to larry kudlow's interview with former president trump tomorrow. we'll get reaction to the all of this and much, much more. >> my wife told me my grammar's to not always correct. i'm a knucklehead at times. elizabeth: wait until you hear tim walz's new excuse for his blatant, self-serving 'em bell embellishment and lying. we've got that sound coming up. everyone's favorite, joe concha, is here to react. also the debate fact checkers pushing back on j.d. vance, but listen to this story coming up. federal reserve officials do say j.d. vance was right. steve forbes is going to the take it on. he's going to the show you what the media won't report to you, coming up. >> senator, on that point i'd like for you to clarify. there are many contributing factors to the high housing costs. what evidence do you have that migrants are part of this problem? >> well, there's a federal reserve study that we're happy to share after the the debate.

>> i've become friends with school shooters. yeah, and, look, you've got to see me, these nokes know maine i'm super passionate about this. the questions about a school shooting, we're talking about everything but school shootings. i was talking about being people where there are school shooters. >> you said you were in hong kong in the spring of 1989. but minnesota public radio and other media outlets are reporting that you actually didn't travel to asia until august of that year. can can you explain that discrepancy? >> yeah. well, to folks out there that didn't get it at the top of this, look, i grew up in small, rural nebraska, a town of 400, you rode your bike with your buddies -- >> yeah, look, i had my date wrong. i was in hong kong and china in 1989. i speak like everybody else speakings. elizabeth: really? tim walz speaks like everybody else speaks?

does everyone exaggerate and embellish their biography? also he had to clarify his debate gaffe where he said he was, quote, friends with school shooters. do votest really want this guy in the situation room? joining us now, fox news contributor joe concha. first he said at the debate he's a knucklehead, he's too dumb. that's why he was lying. now he claims everybody lies like him? really in. >> wow. i mean, tim walz, liz, had a maybe the worst possible answer in that debate that we have seen in any debate, quite frankly, when he was asked about lying about his whereabouts in tiananmen square, as you first described. first he said he misspoke, then he called himself a knucklehead, then he said he learned a lot about governance by spending so much time in china. wait, he's taking his crew -- cues on how to govern from the chinese? did he actually say that? we're all born ignorant, but one must work to remain this stupid. this phony lied, and and he is phony, just like he lied about his rank in the national guard,

fibbed about serving in war zones when in reality he ditched his national guard unit when they were deployed to iraq. so, yeah, he really got exposed at that a debate and afterwards. j.d. vance couldn't have represented the trump ticket any better, probably one of the best debate performances we have seen in modern times. and now this is going to be a big deal for kamala harris because she's already seen as somebody who may not if be ready for the job, and her vice president looks even worse, if that's possible. elizabeth: yeah. i mean, he's got more baggage than an airplane. i mean, the media a -- [laughter] you know, yes, focus on his debate performance, right in his gaffes, his embellishment. it's also about his policies when he was governor of minnesota. watch grover norquist with us this week on it. watch. >> he's raised taxes tremendously and just spent all as much as you possibly could taxing gasoline, taxing cars, taxing middle americans, taxing their payrolls. if he has declared war on working people in that state, and people are now living

minnesota -- leaving minnesota. it's beginning to look more like chicago if new york and california with people fleeing the highest business taxes in the country. elizabeth: so, joe, let me just go through the facts because he's one of the worst governors in the nation. since to 202211, most states have cut taxes at least one. 28 the cut individual tax rates. 15 states cut corporate income tax rates. minnesota, under tim walz, is an outlier. he raised taxes. minnesota ranks in the bottom worst of all that states for tax and regulation. that's according to the tax foundation. final word. >> wow. in terms of florida and people moving there, more people are moving from minneapolis to to the florida than any city in the country, and i'll leave it here, liz. when we look back on this campaign, if kamala harris loses, the decision to choose tim walz over her running mate -- as her running mate over josh shapiro in pennsylvania, that will be seen as the biggest unforced error we've seen. it was a horrible gut decision on kamala harris' --

elizabeth: we'll write down the date. joe concha just called it. okay, this story, housing costs are a big problem in the u.s., up 2% -- 23222% since -- 22% since biden took office. there's a lot of issues here with why housing is going up, but did j.d. vance get it right calling out illegal immigration and the surge in that as a driver of rising housing costs? edward lawrence has the story9 the white house. >> reporter: liz, two very different housing plans. under vice president kamala harris and former president donald trump. add into the mix the amount of migrants allowed to enter if under the biden-harris administration, a big topic for the vice presidential debate. listen. >> 25 million illegal aliens competing with americans for scarce homes is one of the most significant drivers of home prices in the country. it's why we have massive increases in home prices that have happened right alongside, massive increases in illegal

alien populations under kamala harris' leadership. >> reporter: both walz and the moderators pushed back. the fact is federal reserve board of governor michelle bowman said in multiple speeches the amount of migrants in certain places in the u.s. could take up affordable housing and push up the price of rents in addition to putting upward pressure on services inflation. republicans say it all comes back to the border policy since the day vice president harris took office. >> she never went -- do you remember the infamous, she was talking the some reporter and he says have you been to the border, and she laughed and she said, no, but i've not been to europe either, if you remember that. they don't have any accountability. they don't have any accountability. they don't care what happens to americans. most of us think that they want more people in congressional district ares so that they can win more seats. >> reporter: and the 8.5 million people crossing the southern border illegally under the administration stressing that housing affordability. back to you. elizabeth: always great reporting from edward lawrence. let's get right to "forbes" media chair and editor in

editor-in-chief steve forbes. steve, it's great to see you again. what do you make of this story? >> i think it's basic arithmetic. when you bring in 10 million people illegally, they have to have a place to stay. and you can see it here right in new york city. look at the number of hotel rooms that have been taken offline. hotel prices have gone up because thousands of hotel rooms are now occupied by these illegal immigrants. so it's very basic. you have big demand, limited supply, prices are going to go up. that's economics, basic, 10 10001 -- 101. a first grader can grasp that, unless you're running for vice president. [laughter] elizabeth elizabeth okay. this is a pretty bold denial, steve, by kamala harris. a reporter is asking why aren't you fixing things now? you've been the incumbent for four years and watch him ask about her 2020 the 19 plan to ban frack. she's denying she even said that. listen. >> there's no question i'm that in favor of banning fracking. >> have you changed your view on

fracking and, if so, why? >> so let me start by saying that that ad as a you described it is absolutely a mischaracterization that i think is intended to make people afraid of my presidency. let me be absolutely clear as i've been when i said it back in 2020. i will not ban fracking. elizabeth: okay. well, unfortunately for kamala, the internet exists. there's video of her all over the internet saying she wants to ban fracking. >> well, she said very clearly in 2019 and then she tries to make it out in 20 to 20 she sort of backed off, but there's no record she backed off of that. and the fact of the matter is, in essence, in terms of narrow fact, she could probably be right, she won't ban fracking. she'll just kill it by regulation, by taxation, by having to file 10,000-page reports, not having the pipelines there to move the natural gas and things like that. so that's how they do it.

for example, gas stowes. they're not going to ban gas stoves, the epa has regulations that'll make 96% of them illegal. so they do it that way. elizabeth: steve, thank you. we need you on these stories. banning fracking, that will hit voters and workers in pennsylvania very hard. okay, next up, top democrats, they're now really afraid trump the is gaining bigtime with working class americans in swing states like michigan and pennsylvania. leo terrell here to break it down. also we're digging into this, a new homeland security report slams the biden-harris white house for literally letting thousands of illegal aliens fly into the u.s. on u.s. domestic flights, no id, no vetting. but remember they demanded covid passports from you to just go to things like restaurants? trump acting i.c.e. director tom homan is going to react to the details. but we really want to talk to dagen and sean to hear what they're excited about tonight on

trump's policies, liz, impact working class people. democrats are telling people of color what they should have. they're not interested in transgender surgery. they want a job. they want low inflation. they want better streets, no crime. they want good schools. you don't hear that coming from the democrat you hear it from trump. trump has definitely redefined the republican party. and i'll say this on your show, he's going to get record number of hispanics, blacks, union members, jewish will have american -- jewish-american, traditional democrat groups, but they're now republicans, trump republicans, because the message is economic freedom from the democratic tax. bidenomics does not work in minority communities. elizabeth: all right. let's hoe the stories, i mean, we're seeing what you're saying. it's the working class are, blue collar voter election. you know, the working families' party is the problem for dem rah accurates. some say ousting biden, he had a link to the working class. now it's gone full-blown,

far-left elitist progressivism. it's not our grandparents' democratic party. michigan democrats may turn away from kamala harris. she is not well defined. they don't know really who she is. the "philadelphia inquirer" just reported trump is gaining in the democrat city of philly because of the working class vote. that's a key battleground state, pennsylvania. even mitt romney did not do this in 2012. if he wins philly, is it over? >> yes, it is over. let me give you -- he doesn't even have to win, philly, liz. traditionally, democrats get 85-90% of the black vote. i'm telling you this right now on your program, she will not get those numbers. she might get 65 or 70. those difference in percentages will turn pennsylvania for trump. trump is getting 40% of the hispanic vote, liz. that is record, historic record numbers. that's going to be the difference in these battleground states. and let me also a mention this -- mention this, it's very

important. the democrats have prioritized illegal alien over american citizens, and those individuals, those black americans, spanish americans, they recognize that and they resent that. that's what the democrats have done, and that's why they have lost traditional democrat members. elizabeth: we love leo terrell, he tells it like it is. good to see you. >> thank you, liz. elizabeth: coming up, the biden-harris homeland security department slamming the biden-harris white house for letting thousands of illegal aliens fly on domestic flights no vetting, no id, but they demanded covid passports from you. tom homan is going to take on this disturbing report next. ♪ liberty mutual customized my car insurance so i saved hundreds. with the money i saved i thought i'd get a wax figure of myself. oh!

underscores alarming new revelation in ig report said -- used to issue various i'm gra, a key finding in the report said this under current processes, cvp and i.c.e. cannot ensure they are keeping citizens from entering and tsa cannot ensure high-risk noncitizens who may pose a threat to flying public. he has seen it. >> because we can't properly vet the individuals, we have to go with what they are giving us, that is why we saw death of javier in florida at hands of someone who claimed to be a minor but was an adult, this is dangerous, and ig got it

correct. reporter: dhs is pushing back in a statement saying: >> tsa pushed back too saying that the report does not reflect their policies. liz. elizabeth: griff jenkins thank you. right to former acting i.c.e. director tom homan. what is your reaction? we hear they let in high-risk individuals into the country, one on fbi terror watch list in 2022, and two afghan nationals who reportedly posed a threat to national security. >> look. it is worse. the department is lying, they know the people are not properly vetted, i talk about it all of the time, you vet someone at the border, you can only vet

them against u.s. -- unless they have a previous record here, whether a criminal immigration record and fingerprints come back, we don't know who they are, we don't have access to other countries crime data, criminal countries here, who kill and rape young women, and other heinous crimes, they came, they got vetted, iei.c.e. arrested a guy a month ago, they found hut -- out he wasn'ted in his country for 20 murders. yet he passed vetting. they destroy their i.d.s and throw them away, if they don't have previous fingerprint record in united states, they can claim to be anyone they want to be. elizabeth: how kamala harris cam and tim walz and joe biden, how come their hair is not on fire about this?

how come dhs secretary mayorkas is downplaying this? >> because, they support open borders, they have not done a damn thing in almost 4 years. they took a beating over high immigration numbers, they create two programs, they call legal pathways, they are illegal. and they are bringing thousands into the interior airports, 30 thousand a month, then more on the app to the port of entry. calling them legal entries, the numbers are down they created street buckets. if you added programs up, they are still historic numbers that is not even talking about the got aways, they are lying to the american people, this is by design, this is open borders, this is what they want. elizabeth: reading a statement from house homeland security chairman,

saying: i.c.e., tsa and cvp have been pushing back. dhs said they can't detain all individuals subject to decedetention because of things like lack of bed space. >> looking at numbers today there are 36 thousand in detention, they are fundings for 41500, they say they don't have enough bed space, in this year, presidential budget, requesting from congress right now, 32 thousand beds, they are asking for 25% fewer beds than they have right now, that is what they are asking for, they can complain about not enough beds. elizabeth: the thing is focusing on beds, when it is about an open border, all ports of ent reeker a --

entry, in between 17 hunterrists on the fbi watch list have passed -- been caught trying to enter under this biden-harris white house, this is a generation after 9/11. people are still hurts from 9/11. >> that is what we know, how about 2.2 million got aways? look, this is why you need to end catch and release, this is why president trump ended catch and release. less than 40 days. end catch and release. elizabeth: tom homan come back soon, i am elizabeth macdonald, thank you for watching "the evening edit," dvrs us, dagen and sean with the "the bottom line." dagen: thanks e-mac. elizabeth: sur
