always stops here because we're definitely looking out for you. breaking tonight, one of america's best allies standing on the brink of all-out war, and the president is once again at a fund-raiser. welcome to the kelly file, everyone, i'm megyn kelly. it is 4:00 a.m. in tel aviv, but no one is sleeping easy. we have now seen 24 hours of hamas rocket attacks almost constantly raining down on israel, our closest ally in the middle east. we have been watching israeli media sites all night as reports of new attacks on israel flash every five to ten minutes or faster. israeli air strikes have been hitting gaza for hours in response. so far today, no casualties reported on the israeli side. that is due in large part to its iron dome missile defense

system, which is taking out those rockets one by one in dramatic scenes just like this one. watch. >> at this point last night, nearly half of israel's total population was hiding in bomb shelters. nearly half. and things have not improved much since then. the explosions hitting so close to home that average izraltys are now capturing the iron dome intercepts on their iphones. and after all this, we got a report just a short while ago quoting a top israeli official saying a ground invasion could come at any moment with some

40,000 reservists ready to march into gaza. so with iraq, now an islamic state. syria in a full blown civil war, and our own president's efforts on a peace process between israel and palestine clearly a failure, where is the united states in all of this? mike huckabee just got back from israel a couple weeks ago. he joins us from little rock tonight. governor, where is the united states, and where is our president? >> well, the president is raising funds for the democratic party. what he needs to be doing is dispatching both the defense secretary and particularly the secretary of state to israel and to make public statements. the president himself, saying that because hamas is nothing more than a puppet of iran, that the united states supports israel fully in doing whatever it has to do to shut down these rocket attacks. megyn, i have been all over the southern part of israel. i stood and have seen 4200

katyusha rockets filed up behind the police station. america would never tolerate what the israelis have been asked not just to tolerate but to accept and give land away for. it is absurd, and we need to suggest to the world that they back off, let israel put hamas out of business once and for all, do whatever it takes, including a ground operation in gaza, and stop this nonsense because it's escalating out of control, and nobody wins this except terrorism. >> what the president has done, you know, before he went off to the fund-raisers is he wrote an op-ed. he wrote an op-ed, governor huckabee, in an israeli paper, in which he offered strong praise for the palestinian president and said little about the israeli prime minister, benjamin netanyahu. on the very same day, a top white house adviser made some blistering comments about israel during a speech in tel aviv. talking about its occupation of

the west bank being wrong, leading to regional instability, the dehumanization of civilization and so on. they have come under fire for not standing firmly with israel, but the entire region is in chaos, the entire region. >> megyn, it's embarrassing to say that our policy has degenerated to something that is let's put our arms around hamas and welcome them to the family. this is a terrorist organization. our own state department says it's a terrorist organization. the fact that the palestinians have now embraced hamas as part of the unity government, what we ought to be saying instead of praising the palestinians, we ought to be saying if the palestinians continue to have a partnership with hamas, they have seen their last american dollar of support. furthermore, we would encourage the israelis to build all of the neighborhoods they can in judea and samaria, and we would say it's time to quit fantasizing about a two-state solution that

is no solution whatsoever to peace, and to make it clear that terrorism has no place in israel or the rest of the middle east. this is not something that the united states can be timid about. we've got to be bold. we've got to be clear. we're either for freedom or we're for terrorism. we need to make up our minds what we're for. >> p po in the past has repeatedly said that we stand shoulder to shoulder with israel, that, you know, we will back our partner israel, and so on and so forlth. the chips apparent lay are down. they're talking about 40,000 troops possibly invading in a ground action. they appear to be at war tonight, governor. what should we be doing? what the american public certainly doesn't have the stomach for actual military involvement, but the question is, this is our closest ally. this is one of our only allies in a region that is falling apart. we need a friend over there, a strong one. >> we need a friend, but i'll tell you, israel needs a friend.

they don't have any. they've been under pressure from the yoeuropeans over this boyco, which is absurd. what we need to be doing is have a president who will call every leader in nato, every leader throughout the world and the superpowers and say, be very clear. we're going to stand with israel. you better not get involved because we're involved. we're going to be with them whatever it takes for them to be able to protect themselves. and megyn, a lot of people, i don't think understand that israel is not fighting for a little strip of real estate here. they're not fighting for additional rights of the jordan river. they're fighting for their very existence. they have a tiny little sliver of land about the size of new jersey. their piece of real estate in all the middle east is tiny. i have stood in places in the golan heights where just a few hundred meters to one side, you're looking to syria, and a few hundred meters to the north, you're looking into lebanon. they're surrounded by enemies. they're not surrounded by

buffers. that's why we have to be very clear that we will stand with them without equivocation. we haven't done that and it's time we do. >> and former ambassador dan gillerman always says we live in a very dangerous neighborhood. >> great to be with you. >> the state department earlier called for both sides to stand down in the middle east, we did not hear anything directly from the president today. he is actually in texas tonight. we have live pictures from dallas where he is raising hundreds of thousands of dollars for the democratic party at two private fund-raisers. the president has been hounded with questions about why he would go to dallas and austin, which as you know are in texas, but not visit the border for a firsthand look at the crisis caused by the recent surge of illegal immigrants crossing. instead, he attended a meeting with governor rick perry and then called on congress to pass immigration reform. >> there is a larger issue that i recognize involves a lot of politics, which is why aren't we passing comprehensive

immigration reform? which would put an additional 20,000 border patrol agents and give us a lot of additional authorities to deal with some of these problems, one of the suggestions i had for governor perry was that it would be useful for my republican friends to rediscover the concept of negotiation and compromise. >> texas senator ted cruz will be here to respond to the president just ahead. we also have new developments tonight on our top story from last night that concern the president's trip to colorado where the state's top democrats were apparently too busy to do any public appearances with mr. obama. he went there for a fund-raiser to benefit mark udall, andadol fa failed to show. his story today, he was desperately needed in washington to do his job. to vote for the new secretary of housing and urban development,

who, as it turns out, you will be happy to hear if you support him, won confirmation by a margin of 71-36, so it was critical for him to be there. mark hannah to worked on both of president obama's campaigns joins us now. thank goodness he was there to get that 71st vote rather than go to colorado, his own state, where the president traveled to raise money for him. >> president obama in 2008 won by a landslide in the popular vote, but i still went to the polls knowing he was going to be elected president of the united states, gosh darn it. >> but if he showed up in your home town and said i'm going to have an event for mark hannah. i love mark hannah. do you think you would blow him off? even though it was going to happen whether you voted or not? >> late last night, the senate called the vote for today. and why is hud, the secretary of housing and urban development so popular to colorado? there's a legitimate answer for

that. >> i'm not going to dispute that, but the votes were there. be honest. he didn't want anything to do with being seen with president obama. >> if he didn't want anything to do with being seen with him, he wouldn't have invited him. >> he wanted him to raise money for him, but he didn't want to be seen with him. >> neither did senator bennett or any of the democratic delegation who was scheduled to fly back to attend the fund-raiser but had work to do in the congress. >> you're making my point. >> what i'm saying -- >> nobody had anything to do with it. >> they have no political liability. >> there's no political advantage for them doing it either. >> all i'm saying is all of the elected representatives in colorado decided, you know what? this congress rarely gets anything done. this is one productive day we're going to have where we can actually do our job. >> yesterday was the day. >> today was the day. >> sorry, today was the day they decided to be productive. that should have been our lead. i don't know why we went with

that war in the middle east thing. >> right. he's not ducking the president. he's just not going out of his way. he's in washington. >> mark udall is in a tight re-election battle. even though it went heavily for president obama the last two elections, it went for george bush in 2004. colorado is considered red leaning or at least purple. >> a purple state. >> that's why the president had his convention there back in 2008. >> sure. >> so the question is whether the democrats are scrambling from him just as fast as they possibly can because he's a president with an approval rating in the state of colorado of 38%. >> we see this every two years, four years, the independent minded members of the democratic party distance themselves from the party leadership. because it's an inclusive party and because you have people who might not agree -- when president obama was at udall's fund-raiser, he said senator udall and i don't agree about everything -- >> they may be inclusive, but they were being kind of mean. >> do you think it was rude? bad manners. >> >> all i know is when you put together your resume tape, you

should put that part in about me saying how great you were. >> this is a no-win because if he had gone back to the funder and been hobnobbing with people closed doors with the president, the republicans would have gone after him anyway for not doing his job when there was a vote in senate. >> only if he refused to be with him on the tarmac. mark, good to see you. >> i appreciate it. >> a stunning new declaration from the epa as that agency announces it has the power to take part of your paycheck if they think you have been bad. we'll explain. plus, we learned late today how irs employees at the heart of the targeting scandal communicated with each other on an entirely different system than the one congress was told about. forget about e-mails. wait until you hear what we've uncovered, next. >> what i want to know is, why did it take us this long to get these e-mails? we have been after these for six months. and you dump them on us july 3rd. (vo) ours is a world of passengers.

the red-eyes. (daughter) i'm really tired. (vo) the transfers. well, that's kid number three. (vo) the co-pilots. all sitting... ...trusting... ...waiting... ...for a safe arrival. introducing the all-new subaru legacy. designed to help the driver in you... ...care for the passenger in them. the subaru legacy. it's not just a sedan. it's a subaru.

developing tonight, fresh bombshells in the irs targeting scandal as we learn former irs leader lower learner was warning her colleagues to be careful what they said in e-mails, to which the irs answers, and she

may have communicated with them over an instant messaging system that was not routinely archived. earlier today, upset lawmakers asked the irs commissioner why they're just hearing about all of this now. watch. >> what i want to know is, why did it take us this long to get these e-mails? we have been after these for six months. and you dump them on us july 3rd. >> the fbi has not talked to you about the lost e-mails of lois lerner? >> they have not. >> has any at the fbi talked to you about lois lerner's lost e-mails? >> i don'tio. >> here's the take away, she's trying to cover her tracks and this guy tells us he hasn't talked to the fbi, what kind of investigation is going on where they won't talk to the head of the agency that has this kind of stuff going on with their e-mail exchange, and won't talk to the agency that lost key evidence in an investigation that is about people's first amendment rights being targeted, and we get these flippant answers from the commissioner. that's what just bothers -- what bothers every single american.

>> this is not the standard of the subcommittee you and i have set, mr. chairman. abusing and badgering witnesses. >> we do want all of our members be respectful of the witnesses. my only response was to disagree with the characterization that my response has been flippant. >> jay is a former justice department attorney and legal editor. good to see you. explain what it is. what happened here is there was an e-mail from lois lerner, april 9, 2013, to a woman named maria hook, who is an i.t. person at the irs. she seems very concerned to find out whether the irs' instant messaging, like the top line sort of communications you can have internally, are discoverable. explain. >> well, the irs apparently has this special program that lets officials talk to each other without creating a record. and so lois lerner was asking the tech people, will anybody be

able to find these messages i have been sending using this system, and there's an amazing moment where the tech person says they're gone for ever, and her answer is perfect. perfect. there's no way to find these records of lois lerner talking with other irs officials on this instant messaging system about how to target tea party groups. so the records have just vanished, the hard drives have just vanished. it gets more absurd by the day, this irs abuse scandal. >> this happens at the same time that one of the parties is demanding an outside third party forensic examiner be allowe@"re take a look at the computers at the irs and assure the court hearing the lawsuits that what the irs is representing about nothing being retrievable is true. you would think if the irs was in a position of telling the truth, they would say bring them in, judge, that will put this to bed once and for all, but they're objecting, saying no.

no one gets to come in. >> no surprise the irs isn't very forthcoming in court, either. look, this is the government agency that makes every american keep their tax returns for seven years. it's the government agency that makes small business owners keep every dog gone receipt they have, or else they're going to be audited and fined and maybe even go to jail. and this is the same government agency that uz parentally doesn't keep their own records. they don't make americans comply with their own standards. the irs just allows their own records to vanish into thin air. they hide from subpoenas, they hide from congress. there seems to be absolutely no accountability at this agency. >> that's the other thing. she's talking about avoiding -- she's asking about how congress sometimes asks for e-mails, and she concludes, quote, we therefore need to -- she says we need to be cautious about what we say in e-mails. that might be something that a lot of people who work at companies are used to hearing because you never want to say something untoward in an e-mail that could wind up on the front

page of the nooiementz, but the thing is lois lerner works for us, and our representatives work in congress. she's basically saying she doesn't want us to see what she's talking about. and guess what, lois? you don't get to say that because we pay you. >> she doesn't want people to know what was on those instant messages for a reason. most americans have enough common sense to know what that reason is. this is an agency that was so abusive, it chilled political speech in the 2012 election. it chilled tea party groups from fully engaging the issue. >> but don't were abecause your former boss eric holder is on top of it. you heard today he's so on top of it he hasn't bothered through doj or the fbi to talk to koskinen. >> that may be the most amazing revelation today, that the irs has not even been contacted by justice department investigators about this cover-up, about these e-mails, about this instant messaging sham going on. that speaks volumes. it tells you that eric holder

doesn't have any intention of doing anything about this because this administration hated political speech by right-wing groups, by conservative groups, by tea party groups, and they set out to stop it, and they succeeded. >> jay christian adams, thank you, sir. >> thanks, megyn. up next, the environmental protection agency claims that it has new power to take part of your paycheck. that group is going to garnish your wages if they decide you've broken their rules, and they don't even have to ask a judge to do it. plus, the president is in texas for a couple of big fund-raisers, but took the time to criticize republicans for the crisis add the border saying the gop needs to learn to compromise. ted cruz is here to respond. at humana, we believe if healthcare changes, if frustration and paperwork decrease... the gap begins to close.

well, the epa made new said with a surprise announcement saying that the environmental protection agency has the power to garnish your wages. take part of your paycheck if it believes you violated its rules. and it doesn't even have to consult the courts before it does it. here to explain, the news editor for townhall.com and author of the new book "assault and flattery." i like that. the truth about the left and their war on women. very catchy. the epa is now all up in our business, trying to take up to 15% of our wages. how? >> so the epa is saying they have the right to garnish wages if you have committed some kind of pollution, some violation of something, say the clean water act or the clean air act. based on that they're saying we have a right to garnish your wages. keep in mind, the epa has been fining people with small fines. we're talking about $75,000 here

and there, $100 here and there, it's per day, per violation. >> ouch. >> the biggest issue is the epa does not really define what pollution is. i'm walking around saying i don't pollute. i'm probably not going to be subjected to this. do i need to worry? >> you may not need to worry, but people who do own pieces of property need to worry. there was a case in 2012, a couple in idaho who wanted to build a home on a piece of property they owned privately. the epa came in, fined them, and told them they were on a wetteland, they weren't allowed to build there. the supreme court shut them down and ruled on the side of the private property owners. here's the problem, the epa now is acting as judge, jury, and executioner and saying you violated our rules, whatever those rule s are and whatever those violations are. >> they publish them in the federal register. >> i'm sure our viewers in middle america are reading it right now, familiarizing

themselves. >> that's one of the other problems, the epa will tell people they're violating some right, and the people can go to the court system and push back and say we're not violating that right. now, they want to go around the system, saying you violated whatever it is without a clear definition. now we're going to garnish your wages and you don't have the ability to push back. >> you do have the ability, but here's how you have to do it. they have to dictate the site of the hearing without any consideration to the time, expense, and travel to you. and travel to where they say, they get to pick the hearing offic officer. that's helpful, and they put the burden on you to disprove their theory that you broke the law. that sounds like a joy. >> exactly. you have to keep in mind, the epa is a huge government agency, and they're attacking couples and private citizens who don't have the same resources that the epa does. >> they say this shouldn't be a problem. congress authorizes them to g n garnish wages and that's the end of that. >> one of the things that jumped out at me, you have republicans and these pro-private property

groups pushing back on the epa, saying you can't do this, and the epa is saying, look, this is not a significant regulatory action, therefore, we don't need a judicial review. they're cutting out the court system. they're treating private property owners as guilty instead of innocent virs. >> and then complaining about thar whining. >> and giving them around $75,000 fine. >> be quiet and enjoy the 85% or 50% of your paycheck we allow you to have. they only give you half of your paycheck to begin with and now they're taking another 15%, andand we have that to deal with if we drop a gum wrapper on the street. they can't be that harsh, can they? who knows because it's all in the federal register. 11 people were killed this weekend, another 60 wounded. not in iraq or gaza. in chicago, illinois. where is the outrage? especially among those on the left who are so concerned about gun violence? allen west is here with a

theory. and this is a live look at air force one in dallas, texas, tonight, waiting to whisk president obama off to his next fund-raiser any moment. but the commander in chief will not be going to the border to see the very crisis his own administration helped create. and that has texas senator ted cruz and other lawmakers fuming. senator cruz after this break. >> sadly, he's not visiting the border. he's not visiting the children who are suffering as a result of the failures of the obama policies. instead, he's doing fund-raisers. he's visiting democratic fat cats to collect checks.

really... so our business can be on at&t's network for $175 dollars a month? yup. all five of you for $175. our clients need a lot of attention. there's unlimited talk and text. we're working deals all day. you get 10 gigabytes of data to share. what about expansion potential? add a line anytime for 15 bucks a month. low dues... great terms... let's close. introducing at&t mobile share value plans... ...with our best-ever pricing for business.

breaking tonight, president obama just wrapping up a front razor in dallas, texas. air force one is fired up on the tarmac right now, waiting to take the president to his next

stop in austin for another fund-raiser. president obama attending the dnc event at the million dollar home of dallas attorney mark stanley. tickets for the barbecue at the stanley estate starting at $10,000. wow, those must be some really good ribs. and going up to more than $32,000 per couple. this comes as our southern border is in the midst of an unprecedented crisis, something the white house has described as an emergency, but apparently not big enough for the president to actually go there when he is in austin and dallas. as you may have heard, thousands of illegal immigrants are being rounded up and shipped off to various parts of the country with little more than a request that they report in 15 days. he's about 500 miles from the border right now, but the president said tonight he doesn't need to actually go there. what he needs to see happen is for congress to take action. >> the question is, are we more interested in politics or are we more interested in solving the problem? if the texas delegation is

prepared to move, this thing could get done next week. >> joining me now, republican texas senator ted cruz. joins me live from washington. senator, good to see you tonight. so he basically says he sent you guys a supplemental bill. he wants an additional $3 billion plus. and if the congress would just sign off on that, he could get these migrants, as he refers to these folks, processed. he could get justice. he could get the kids, you know, shipped off to where they belong and to safe places and it's really your burden to step up to the plate. >> you know, megyn, it's great to be with you. the cynicism of president obama seems to know no bounds. he's been texas tonight. he's going to two major fund-raisers where he wants to be with wealthy democratic donors, but apparently, he doesn't have time to actually go and see the border, he doesn't have time to see the children who are suffering because of his failed policies. earlier, he was playing pool. apparently playing a game of pool is a higher priority for

this president than it would be to go and see the humanitarian crisis he's created. the president's right in one regard. he's described what is happening on the border as a humanitarian crisis, and it is, but it's a crisis of the president's own creation. we are seeing tens of thousands of little boys and little girls coming across in the custody of violent, hardened drug dealers because of president obama's lawlessness. and that's what needs to be corrected. and he has no intention of correcting it or changing what he's doing. >> the president is now referring to it as a humanitarian situation after the white house repeatedly said it's a crisis, a crisis, an emergency. now people are paying attention, it's a situation. and he goes to these $10,000 a head fundraisers at these fancy dinners where couples are paying $32,000 a plate, you know, for two plates, and you have these kids sitting there eating, according to the reports,

literally like frozen burritos and crackers. it's just the imagery of what's happening and the president is being checked out is potentially damaging, but here's what he said when he was asked tonight about why aren't you going to the border? here's what he said. listen. >> there's nothing that is taking place down there that i am not intimately aware of and briefed on. this isn't theater. this is a problem. i'm not interested in photo-opes. >> you know, apparently, the theater he's interested in is seeing the home movie theater of wealthy texas trial lawyers, and he's interested of getting checks from wealthy texas trial lawyers, but he's not interested in seeing the poor immigrant children who are suffering. you know, it's worth just looking at the data to

understand just how bad of a problem president obama has created. three years ago, in 2011, there were roughly 6,000 unaccompanied children who were apprehended trying to cross illegally into this country. then in 2012, president obama illegally granted amnesty to some 800,000 people here illegally who had entered as kids. he did that right before the 2012 election because presumably he thought it would benefit him in the election. this year, it is estimated there will be 90,000 unaccompanied children trying to come inthis country. that's up from just 6,000 three years ago. next year, they're estimated 145,000. megyn, the thing to really understand is these kids, they're not being brought over by well-meaning social workers. these are violent criminals. these children are being subjected to physical abuse, to sexual abuse. it is a humanitarian crisis, and it is because the president is refusing to enforce the law. >> here's the question.

why wouldn't he go? because our own chris stiestierd wrote a piece saying the reason he's not inclined to visit the border is he does not want further responsibility for a crisis his administration foresaw and helped create. do you think that's the reason? >> yes, and it's part and parcel. this is an absentee president. this is a president who we've got the lower labor force participation since 1978, and he goes and plays golf hundreds of times with his buddies. he is not focused on the people who are hurting, who are paying the cost for his failed policies across the country, you have young people, you have hispanics, african-americans, single moms. in this case, you have tens of thousands of immigrant children who are being brutalized and victimized because of his policies -- >> yet when he was asked about it tonight, he pointed the finger of blame squarely at congress. and here's some of that for the

viewers. listen. >> it would be useful for my republican friends to rediscover the concept of negotiation and compromise. >> and he's talking about, among other things, the immigration reform push that the senate passed but the house did not. >> well, and it's -- listen, for president obama, it's all politics all the time. the gang of eight bill that president obama is pushing is one of the major causes for why we're seeing this explosion of kids, because these children are coming because they believe they will get amnesty. and president obama is promising a pathway to citizenship for people here illegally. you know, megyn, a couple weeks ago we had a hearing in the senate judiciary committee, and a number of senators received a confidential report from a whistle blower on the border patrol where they had interviewed over 200 people here illegally and they asked them, many were children, they asked them why are you coming? 95% said we're coming because we

believe we'll get amnesty. we believe we'll be allowed to go free. these are the consequences when you have a president that illegally grants amnesty and when you have a president who promises more amnesty. what it produces, this is the face of amnesty. this is what it looks like. tens of thousands of children being victimized. this is why amnesty doesn't work. and the president won't take responsibilix'kyk it's going even longer. trace gallagher has the latest. >> it could go another hour, megyn, because they have one

more witness. very unclear who that witness is, but remember, aside from andrew tahmooressi telling his side of the story to the judge for the first time today, we were also supposed to hear from the border agents in mexico who arrested him, and tahmooressi's mexican lawyer said he would not stop questioning those agents until he felt like they were telling the truth. and that might be why this hearing has gone so long. tahmooressi's lawyer also says it's unlikely the former marine would be free tonight because this is an evidentiary hearing and the judge might take two or three more weeks to decide. then again, it's always up to the judge, so who knows. this thing, no media, no public was allowed inside. this has gone now the better part of seven hours, but the lawyer for tahmooressi and his mother has said that after it's over they will come out and address the media whether he is released or not. we, of course, will bring that to you when it happens. >> the lawyer said he was going to be getting more aggressive tonight. certainly sounds like he's living up to that.

this guy is facing between 6 and 21 years in a mexican prison if he's convicted. trace, thank you. coming up, 11 dead, 60 wounded in the city of chicago this weekend. and we're hearing the sound of silence from the progressives who would normally be shouting about all of this, and the gun violence and so on. is there something about chicago that is preventing them from doing that? allen west is next with what he thinks is the reason why. plus, a google executive found dead on his yacht in santa cruz, california, and this high-priced escort is in custody. wait until you hear this. i'm j-a-n-e and i have copd. i'm d-a-v-e and i have copd. i'm k-a-t-e and i have copd, but i don't want my breathing problems to get in the way my volunteering. that's why i asked my doctor about b-r-e-o. once-daily breo ellipta helps increase airflow from the lungs

the city of chicago hit hard by gun violence over the weekend, july 4th, with reports saying as many as 80 people were shot, almost a dozen dead. my next guest writing a column

monday where he said, quote, liberal progressives will use any gun violence to further their anti-gun agenda. however, when it's in their backyard, they are amazingly silent. lieutenant colonel allen west is a fox news contributor and former florida congressman. good to see you tonight. what would be the reason there wouldn't be more outrage over this? >> well, good evening. it's a pleasure to be with you, megyn. when you look at the fact this is in chicago. it is right there in the backyard of barack obama, hillary clinton is from chicago. rahm emanuel, david axelrod, david plouffe, lewouis farrakha. jesse jackson sr. you don't have the normal ability to talk about where gun control could play a part because chicago has some of the most stringent gun control laws there. and it's happening in the inner city, in the black community, in the black neighborhoods, and i don't think it's very important to the liberal progressives of the democratic party to solve this problem in the inner city, that it's not just isolated to

chicago. it's also detroit, philadelphia, my hometown in atlanta. it's all these inner cities where these policies are failing. so if this was something that was happening in a combat zone over a weekend, you would have it plastered all over the front pages of papers. but now, of course, it doesn't fit into that agenda, you're not hearing anything about it. what is also interesting, you hear about these illegal immigrants that are escaping the violence and the deplorable situations in central america. you have a lot of that happening right here in our own america, and there's no concern. >> that's an interesting point. i mean, everybody is pointing to this terrible violence seeing in central america. it's like, what about chicago? how do you flee chicago? in the meantime, you talk about gun violence. rahm emanuel has come out on the gun laws, the city's mayor has come out and once again talked about guns. saying where are the gun laws? where are the national leaders so that we don't have the guns of cook county, indiana, and downstate illinois flowing into

this city? >> well, i think that rahm emanuel is not paying attention to the fact it's the gang violence, and it's the failure of those policies in the inner city. when you have a black unemployment rate that is probably closer to 15% to 16%, real unemployment rate. black teenage unemployment rate at 40%, you're seeing young people who don't have anything to do so they're turning to gangs and gang violence. furthermore, when you have the deplorable situation of the schools in the inner city and the teachers unions that are in control, you had a fuss in new york city with bill de blasio wanting to shut down the charter schools in harlem. these are the types of policies that are adversely affecting the black community that the left doesn't want to talk about. >> you think it's a sense of resignation because it's gang on gang violence, people feel powerless to stop it. it doesn't -- there's not the big outrage or shock because we're used to gang members killing other gang members?

>> well, look, i'm a product of an inner city in atlanta, georgia. as a matter of fact, it's the same neighborhood that dr. king grew up in. when you have the breakdown of the black family to the point where only 28% of black children have mothers and fathers in the home, because lyndon johnson decided to give checks out to young women who were having children out of wedlock and would continue to have the checks as long as they kept a man out of the home, we see an incredible cacophony of liberal policies that has destroyed the inner city and created a situation where gangs can rise up. we don't see that focus. if this were happening in my hometown and i was president, it would be a focus for me. i don't understand why it's not a focus for president obama. >> colonel allen west, thank you, sir. good to see you. >> thank you, pleasure. >> there's a murder mystery getting national attention tonight after a google executive is found dead. and this would be model is now under arrest.

well, he was a google executive who wound up dead on his own yacht, killed by an overdose of heroin. police say she was his escort who is now under arrest for manslaughter apparently thanks to a videotape. trace has more. >> and now we know this prostitute could be involved in more than one heroin death. 26-year-old alex tickleman admits working as a call girl on a sugar daddy site called seekingarrangement.com. boasting of having 200 clients. police said she had an ongoing call girl relationship with forest hayes and visited him on his yacht in santa cruz. investigators say the ship's

surveillance tape shows her injecting him with heroin and watches him as he suffers a medical reaction and then collapses, yet she never tried to help, never tried to call 911. instead they say she stepped over his body several times trying to gather up her heroin needles and other belongings. even to finish a glass of wine. >> we also know what she did in the aftermath. we have her computer records, the google searches she made and the things she did to try to get out of this. >> police wouldn't specify how she tried to cover her tracks, but it was the fingerprints on the wine glass that led them to find her. they lured her to santa cruz by offering her $1,000 for sex, and when she arrived, she was carrying heroin. she sent the details oa sexual fetish publication and wrote on facebook, it's nice to talk to

someone about killing sprees and murdering people in cold blood, and they love it too. no judgment, yay. police are now investigating her involvement in a similar death that happened in a different state. megyn. >> she goes by the name ali alix tichelman? >> yeah, you can't make this up? >> i don't think you're pronouncing the first name correctly. >> it's spelled a-l-i-x. let's leave it at that. follow me on twitter at meggen kelly, let me know what you think. plus, coming up on hannity -- >> it's the same president who said al qaeda is on the run. and you know, i don't know whether he's inept or if there's something else going on, as i have said before. but the fact is the border is not secure. your rheumatologist about a biologic... this is humira. this is humira helping to relieve my pain.
