electric cars, $3 billion for pre-equity, $25 million for bias training, $4 billion for distance-learning. according to the biden administration is you just heard the bill -- build back better would be offset by tax shift but republicans do not by this economic outlook and yesterday blocked a move to fund the government and raise the debt ceiling, democrats have a few days to avoid a government shutdown. >> we will see if washington democrats want to govern or want to add the prospect of a government shutdown to the list of inflation, afghanistan, the border and all the other national crises that are the direct results of their own decisions. >> as it stands government funding will expire at midnight thursday. >> a welcome to you to fox news, you came from philadelphia where you know i am from.

>> i remember seeing the billboard of you so excited to be joining you a long time ago. a long time ago. jillian: thank you. foxbusiness anchor larry kudlow says this would turn america into a welfare state. >> not one stipulation, not one that you have to work, no work requirements and no education requirements is that will damage the soul of america. to the heart of american culture. we don't need this bill or any part of it. i'm saying to you save america, kill the bill, save america and kill the bill. we do not need this. it will harm our country at home and it will also harm our country abroad because of the perceived weakness.

>> kudlow warns biden's tax hikes will hurt the middle class. turning to the border crisis thousands of haitian migrants are accepting president biden's open border invitation and more on the way. todd: griff jenkins in mexico word 2000 are seeking refuge on their journey to america. >> or the office of refugee assistance the doors are closed but this year they've had more than 77,000 migrants coming here. officials say more than 10,000 are haitians, you can see many standby waiting for the doors to open tomorrow, the migrants worn these necessary work permits and registration papers to stay here before they head north. stephenson is a migrant from 80. >> i don't - i am here. >> will you ever go back to haiti? >> never. >> either more migrants coming

from south america? >> yes. >> that is just part of why so many haitians are coming, mexican officials say they are sending many migrants who have turned away back to begin their registration process. meanwhile mexican officials confirm what stephenson was telling us which is there are as many as 15,000 migrants coming up from south america, they are preparing for that onslaught, they are opening up a football stadium to deal with the problem. >> you certainly empathize with anybody trying to create a better life for themselves, that goes without saying but that shirt that young man was wearing, exhibit 1 as to why we are in the crisis in the first place. jillian: some people not listening or watching the screen. >> biden harris. it was the campaign shirt and we know these individuals have set on repeated occasions the reason

they are coming is because of biden and harris, their policies, their promises. >> there's a right way and wrong way to do this, most people in this country are for illegal immigration, for people coming here to better themselves, to create better lives and better situations for them and their family but most people say, we talk to people who have come here legally and they say it took me so long, took years, sometimes upwards of 10 years to actually get through the process and it was the proudest moment of my life when i finally did and everybody we've spoken to on the show has said we welcome

legal immigration and that is the bottom line, what we are seeing is not that at all. >> to that point their arguments to be made that we need more people in the united states of america because of declining birth rate so that is not the issue, we need to know who is coming, to that them, to integrate them into society so they are like the rest of us and when you do it this way in this haphazard run to the border and cross and no accountability way that creates problems down the line and that is - with that, 7 minutes after the hour white house ripping and republicans giving speeches at the border rather than bending to the immigration reform plan. >> alejandra mayorkas reveals one in 5 immigrants have, quote, and illness. >> reporter: white house press secretary jen psaki taking the gloves off knocking republicans for standing democrats way even though president biden has yet to visit the border. >> republican standing at the border giving speeches about how broken system is why not join us and be part of the solution instead of relying on speeches? we can work together and get immigration reform past. >> reporter: ronnie jackson firing back tweeting finish building the wall, reaffirming the remain in mexico policy and

population of people that have a rate of illness of approximately 20%. what i didn't expect is the tragic rise of the delta variant. >> meanwhile the white house is not shifting their stance on del rio border agents despite images showing agents were twirling rains, not whips. jen psaki doubling down condemning the agents and praising the ongoing investigation. jillian: cost firing a short range missile from neighboring nations in the us. the indo pacific command saying the test doesn't pose an imminent threat but the missile launch highlights the impact of the d prk illicit weapons program. the weapons test happening at the same time the north korean delegation addressed the united nations saying no one can deny the righteous right to self-defense of north korea to

expect this to happen again. >> we are going to own 16 and they walk all over us twice, 12 minutes after their commander biden's upcoming art show is a canvas for controversy. congressman james comeyou wants ethics rules in place by tomorrow. >> we are talking to joe concha, tomi lahren and rebecca on a busy tuesday morning.

it's moving day. and while her friends are doing the heavy lifting, jess is busy moving her xfinity internet and tv services. it only takes about a minute. wait, a minute? but what have you been doing for the last two hours? ...delegating? oh, good one. move your xfinity services without breaking a sweat.

xfinity makes moving easy. go online to transfer your services in about a minute. get started today. >> another live look at capitol hill where democrats remain divided over the way forward on the president's $3.5 trillion spending bill. >> critics are mocking president biden's claim that his billback better agenda costs $0 we should discuss is kentucky congressman james comeer. can you explain for those of us who don't quite understand how this is going to cost $0, how this won't affect majority of americans including the middle class and if you tax corporations hire that ultimately is not going to call on to the consumer. >> is going to cost a lot of money and so many democrats in

congress don't even think about where this money comes from. he comes in two sources. will be higher taxes on everyone. the second source is the government is borrowing more money from china, borrow money, however you put it, either way it is a big tax increase just for those of us who work it is a tax increase and even if you don't work like so many democrats in their base this is going to lead to higher inflation and inflation is a tax on everyone so this is the most expensive bill in history of the american congress. it is a bad bill and no american should want this. >> here are some of the hidden gems, $3 billion for tree lending entry equity. i planted some trees this weekend, didn't come close to that, $4 billion for additional business earning for schools, thought we were trying to get kids back in the classroom, to fund electric cars and

$15 million for resource centers for all the people with sexual gender identity issues. how far can moderate democrats vote for this and think they have any chance in the swing districts come next year? >> i don't think the moderates can vote for this. there realizing pelosi is trying to shift gears, to go back on her word and say we need to vote for the infrastructure bill first and then we will get to the budget reconciliation bill later. the fact of the matter is the american people had enough time to digest this bill. it is a massive tax increase that will lead to massive inflation. it funds programs like gender equity for senior citizens that aren't even talking about. equity, electrifying the federal fleet, this is unnecessary spending at a time when the federal government could tighten its belt, the government spending needs to get under control, that should be one of the highest priorities in

congress and this bill does the opposite. jillian: nancy pelosi seems confident, is there any chance this does get through? >> i underestimated pelosi before but i can't imagine any moderate democrat in a suburban district that could go either way in the midterms, this is a bad bill and the more the american people learn about this bill or they will dislike it. laura: your demanding ethics rules by tomorrow from the gallery hosting hunter biden's art show. here is what you are asking for, communications with hunter biden and white house, who purchased hunter biden's art and who attended the opening of hunter biden's art shows? is this trending in the direction where hunter is going to get away with this because it feels that way. >> we are not going to let him get away with this. republicans i laser focused on

this issue. this isn't a political issue. this is a national security threat. if you look at hunter biden's past, emails that have been verified in the last few weeks hunter biden has a history of trying to sell influence to foreign nationals, influence through his family name and what is going on in the art world the art world has become a place for massive money-laundering. this is a way for people in china to funnel money to shady american interests. this is been going on for several years and it just so happens hunter biden started painting in the meantime and selling artwork but what we have asked for from the gallery is what are your policies to ensure there is no money-laundering taking place? we asked the white house who the buyers of this artwork are, they won't do that which makes me think there is something fishy going on because the biden administration could put the story to rest by simply saying

this is who is buying the art, they won't do that because in my opinion this is a shady deal on a character that has a shady past and that is hunter biden. jillian: thank you for joining us. >> maybe you could just paint some trees, $3 billion worth of money. jillian: it is 21 minutes after the hour, school bus driver shortage is causing chaos for parenting districts across the country like our next guest who says she waited an hour for her 10-year-old to come home. >> he doesn't want his liberty status anymore. a legend and hollywood legend. ♪♪

jillian: former president barack obama pushing aside concerns his new $500 million presidential center in chicago will destroy local park and drive up the cost of living. >> anytime you do big project is always going to be some people who say we don't want change, we are worried about quote will turn out. >> those of the project they will destroy historic women's garden on the south side of jackson park but obama says the center only improve that part this. obama faced accusations of elitism and hypocrisy in august during a large birthday party where few attendees wore masks. california is permanently a vote by mail say. officials and the ballots ever registered voter in all future elections was under the new law ballots must go out at least 29 days before election day. governor gavin is signing to another voting related bills into law, republicans oppose the expansion of voting by mail. >> 27 after the are, parents relate country struggling to get their kids to school because

there aren't enough busters to make the rounds. south carolina mom joins me to discuss how the labor shortages impacting parents and students. thanks for being here. how dire is the situation? >> it is definitely improved, the first week of school was pretty rough. i would say my daughter's first day of school, she was supposed to write home at 4:12, i got a notice from the principal at 4:30 and ultimately she came home at 5:45 so it was a long bus ride. >> as a parent not really knowing where your kid is and why your kid is not home what is going through your mind when that happens? >> nora 10 years old, she's the big kid on the bus. i wasn't so worried about her safety, bus drivers are excellent, i speak with them, make sure they know who i am when she's getting on and off the bus so i wasn't so worried about her safety as much as

where is she, and there are little kids on the bus, 4 and 5-year-olds to have never been in school before so i'm sure for those parents it is a whole other experience. >> the districts are trying, who do you blame for this? >> that's a tough one. our district here, we hire, it is a private bus company so it is not run through the school and they are not employed through the school district, whether that is a factor or not i don't know. i really feel for the bus drivers, i know they are overrun, running multiple roots so i certainly don't blame them. i think they are doing the best they can with the cards they are dealt. laura: look at the situation run the country, several school districts offering to pay parents for pickup and drop-off, it's berg public schools delayed academic year, massachusetts

deployed national guard to drive the kids to school. how much more can middle-class families take? >> for me i own my own business, i own a body studio in charleston, i'm the sole employee. the bus is late i also have a son so i have to get my daughter on the bus, drive them to school and if i'm late that is a client lost. it does affect income ultimately. it can be hard. i am one of several parents out there relying on the bus in order to get to work and it is a big snowball effect. todd: are you worried the combination of extra roots and cash drivers, trying to train brand-new drivers could put child safety at risk? >> i haven't had a negative experience.

one thing i will say is ideally want that bus driver to know your child's face and know your face and hopefully know their name so the child is always accounted for and when there is always a sub stepping in and a new driver that relationship isn't happening. that is a concern. laura: todd: we talked to business owners throughout the country that say the fact the government is giving out so much free money is keeping so many workers on the sidelines and that includes bus drivers. how much of a factor do you think that is in not just your district but throughout the country, the inability to get your kids to school? >> here in south carolina as far as government relief and relationship to covid i know that has played a role in employees not getting back to work, that's not the case here. the funding was cut a while ago so i'm not really sure what is

happening with the shortage. i can't speak to that and don't have the details. todd: a frustrating time for parents across the country. hopefully your kid will be in charge of the school as being the older woman on the bus. thanks. jillian: 31 after the hour, the city of brotherly love has seen more than 400 murders this year. liberal leaders say the city needs better education, trauma care and adequate housing to address the problem but others say philadelphia, we are talking to an attorney next and about enter on the hunt for brian laundrie, leads cropping up as the search intensifies. .

attorney bill brennan. thanks for being here. this is the highest number of homicides at this point in time in the year in more than a decade. that is alarming. this isn't a 70 in philadelphia. we are seeing spiking numbers across the country but this is a city you live in and work in. what do these numbers say to you? >> good morning and thanks for having me. numbers say to me we are trending too high for this time of year. historically we have had homicides in the hundreds in the month of september is a first. i agree with the district attorney something has to be done. the difference is i think he has to be the one to come up with the thing to do. it is great to have partners but ultimately it is his call as to what changes need to be made to

make the city safer. >> there were 499 homicides in 2019356, 2018353, we are seeing these numbers skyrocket and the sad part about this but we are seeing play out on city streets across the country is a lot of younger victims in these situations. >> that is true especially in philadelphia, last week with the press conference with the mayor district attorney and during the conference there was a shooting within earshot that you could hear on camera. a thing to revisit is we have a commissioner a couple decades ago believes in prosecuting quality-of-life crimes, writing atvs in the midst of traffic, you start from the bottom up. that's not the policy of the current administration but when that policy, there did seem to

be a collateral benefit and that would spiral crime. jillian: of title offices in philadelphia who were friends for obvious reasons can't talk about this but we've had conversations and part of the question i think people have, is it beneficial and would it even be possible with the police commissioner, an old-school style of policing where you walk the be, have these relationships with people in these neighborhoods, what is being done and what has been done over the course of the last few years is not working. >> i agree and it seems to go the opposite trend, from the cop on the beat to an enemy camp, the neighborhood versus local police station and that can never work. for effective policing to take place especially a large metropolitan city there has to be some type of relationship between the community and the police department. i would think perhaps starting

as you suggested with more visible controls or bike patrols, would be a positive step toward healing the relationship between the police and the community. jillian: your police officers on our street certainly not the answer. is there anything this attorney - the district attorney can do to remedy the situation? >> as indicated in the press conference, he is open to suggestions but that is not good enough. he has to be the one to come up with a plan of action. he's the district attorney. you can find a lot of crime numbers but you can't fund homicide numbers. it is directly relatable to a dead body. we are likely to crack 500. it is a crisis at this point. jillian: we've seen in

philadelphia the story of a kid walking his dog who ended being murdered by someone who was out because of the bail reform laws in cities across the country so it seems - >> we discussed that before. jillian: there are things that can be done and things aren't being done. appreciate your time. todd: a new tip on the possible whereabouts of the man wanted in the connection to the disappearance and death of gabby petito. jillian: exclusive information about brian laundrie obtained by fox news digital. >> reporter: investigator 7 searching the carlton reserve which is close to his parents house but about the hunter received a tip that brian might be at park 75 miles away in panola county. according to this tipster brian and his parents went to fort they soto park twice in early september which is after he came

home from the cross-country road trip without abby. >> they registered to stay at this park. >> on camera. >> allegedly two people left on the eighth, three people came in on the sixth and two people left on the eighth. i say he has been here for sure. >> reporter: duane chapman believes if brian is not there now, he was at some point. his parents, parents attorney released a statement that any speculation the laundrie family helped him escape is false but the bounty hunter thinks -- this is an anonymous tip at this point and should be treated as such. todd: everybody of hard to this weekend had an opinion.

todd: a washington school district getting a lot of controversy for its decision. jillian: a teacher in washington state said she was forced to remove the flag from her classroom over claims it was a political message. she says black lives matter messages are allowed. this teacher wishes to remain anonymous but says she received a letter from hr that says they were highly concerned about the impacts of thin blue line flag has on students. listen to jason rants on this very topic. >> that is what is behind this, the anti-police sentiment. there is no reason why you could be allowed to put up a blm flag or lgbt q pride flag which are up in the school and yet a thin blue line flag goes too far. jillian: the teacher said she had the flag up because her brother is a police officer and wants to support her brother but was forced to take it down, the school district did not respond

to a fox news request for comment. jillian: shack doesn't want to be a celeb. >> he has renounced his liberty status in an interview with the new york post. listen to the quotes. these celebrities are going freaking crazy and i don't want to be one. i renounce less liberty status today. i'm done with it. another quote i don't want to be in that category, celebrities are crazy, don't call me that anymore. these people are out of their freaking minds with how they treat people, what they do, what they say, that has never been me. i never want to be look at like that. he says anyone could be known for being nice, that is what he wants to be known for. >> you are that good at basketball and so legendary you can't stop. todd: if you heard shack over the years he's really down to earth, he gives a lot to share ready.

>> he's not talking about the resignations so much is a list of the comes with being a celebrity. come on. working on a billboard. >> he was a police officer. >> comes from military family, gives a lot to charity. he was in our favor movie grown ups 2. >> todd knows everything about everyone. >> he has been nice. >> we are increasing his delivery status. we got to run. >> it is all a pitch to get a billboard. you said that at the top of the show. >> 10 years ago. >> i want a billboard, you should have one too. thanks. jillian: protesters fill the streets of deep blue new york city to protest the vaccine mandates, as he prepares to replace healthcare workers she fired with the national guard. todd: not just hospitals, school employees have until friday to
