nice to see you. >> dana: before we go, check this out. this study revealing a perfect puppy dog eye. a trait -- it makes dogs look more human and prevents them from getting pummeled when they are bad. "the faulkner focus" is up next. here is harris. >> bill: bye. >> harris: we'll begin with this fox news alert. texas is now the epicenter of fighting back against president biden's border crisis and this time republican governor greg abbott is raising the stakes. i'm harris faulkner and you are in "the faulkner focus". governor abbott is about to move illegal immigrants. the federal government is dumping them into his state. texas. abbott announced he will put them on charter buses headed for washington, d.c. he said he would do something big and this is it.

all of it is in response to biden's upcoming end to title 42. that's the trump-era covid policy which lets border officials quickly deport larges groups of people who come across the border and abbott says the move is necessary to take some of the pressure off the overworked border agents. and more. >> joe biden has refused to come to the border to see the chaos he has created. we'll take the border to him. what is happening so far, those people will be getting on buses and going to san antonio or houston or other places like that. i think they need longer bus rides. >> harris: president biden is now facing bipartisan backlash, five senate democrats and six republicans are pushing a new bill which would block biden from ending title 42 without a detailed plan on how to handle

the mass migration of people coming and more will come. the head of the border patrol unit says agents feel unwanted and demoralized and some told me they feel out numbered. republicans blame the president. >> amazing coordination between the border patrol and the state of texas as far as law enforcement and we need to make sure that continues. the morale of the border patrol agency is certainly under attack. unfortunately the federal government has not been of any help. they have been the exact opposite and caused the problem. the biden administration removing trump policies that worked. governor abbott is limited as far as having a partner. >> harris: general jack keane is in "focus." first bill melugin live at the border in mission, texas, with the next chapter of all of this. the governor fighting back. bill. >> harris, good morning to you. part of governor abbott's plan is mob lidsing the texas

military to respond when title 42 drops underway as we speak. pan off to the left now. command post. the national guard is rolling in as we speak. a massive convoy that goes back as far as the eye can see. what's happening here is texas military and texas national guard set up a command post and start running simulations for mass migration events and how the military would respond to it. there will be national guard soldiers in riot gear coming out setting up wire and putting boats in the river. they are preparing for what they think is going to happen on may 23. that involves a full military mobilization. a busy morning here in mission. look at the video we shot as we embedded with texas state troopers on the hunt for runners in the brush. didn't take long to find them. look at this video. you can see mostly single adult men laying in the grass, some hiding in bushes. texas resources constantly having to help the federal government do the job of immigration down here.

you can see the troopers going into that brush. they ended up pulling 15 to 20 runners out of that brush, arresting all of them. all part of operation lone star. border patrol can't be everywhere at once. texas resources have to help. take a look at these photos from border patrol in the rio grande valley. part of the reason they're stretched thin. they keep encountering huge groups like this. a group of 120 encountered in star county single adults and all from ecuador, romania and peru. that puts a serious taxing on border patrol resources, they have to do paperwork and process the people and can't catch the runners. look at this out of the del rio sector. eight unaccompanied children found crossing the river completely alone. no parents, no guardians. del rio sector sees this very often. kids completely by themselves being smuggled across the river. no parents, no guardians.

extremely dangerous for them. if we can pull up this video. these photos. when we were in brownsville the other day you heard me report my sources were telling me that migrants were being given smartphones by the federal government when they were mass released. yesterday jen psaki confirmed that. peter doocy asked her about it and she confirmed they are giving them phones. shsays it is to track them. take a listen. >> our concern is insuring that individuals who regularly migrate to the united states proceed through our process of, of course, being monitored but participating in hearings to determine whether or not they will be able to stay. >> harris, the d.e.a. sent out a nationwide warning to law enforcement telling them they need to be prepared to see a serious surge in fentanyl-related mass overdose deaths because of the amount of drug pouring over the border. not just a single o.d. but

prepared for those mass events where three or more people o.d. because they don't know they are being exposed to the drug. >> harris: that's an excellent point, too. the all-call goes out to law enforcement and they will be also exposed to this in higher quantities than they might formally be ready for. it is a killer, fentanyl. bill melugin, thank you very much for getting us started with the news today. general jack keane is with me now. fox news senior strategic analyst, retired four-star general and chairman at the institute for the study of war. thank you for being in "focus." i want to throw one more thing in the bin here. this is brand-new as well. so the texas guards border mission needs an additional half million dollars to continue past this month. they call it operation lone star. it has deployed 10,000 extra service members and ballooned to more than $2 billion a year at the border to try to deal with the onslaught that we're already feeling. >> yeah, absolutely true.

i have great empathy for these governors on the border there and what is happening to them and what is happening to the state and you have governor abbott probably the most aggressive of all of them trying to solve the problem on a limited scale himself using his own resources. i look at the border from a national security perspective and when you have an open border, you are actually losing the sovereignty of your nation. that's the tragedy of what is taking place here and it has been reported by the border patrol folks that already in this year, and we're not even halfway through the year, they have encountered people from 150 different countries. and that is quite staggering. it blows apart the argument that we need to find the root causes of why people are coming across the border in the three states in latin america. 150 countries already represented coming across the border. just a matter of time when we have a terrorist organization

that will take advantage of that border. >> harris: i want to lean into that a little bit because if anybody thought that was possible, say, six months ago, a year ago, we are approaching so many people now that the volume at the border is so big they say, general, the border patrol reports 300,000 gotaways. people who on purpose go around the border patrol agents are in this country right now. >> right. and some of them, of course, obviously are criminals. we've got a crime wave epidemic in this country as we've seen what's going on in our cities. the drug traffickers and human traffickers and hard core criminals that are part of the gotaways, they are here. and, of course, they are undermining the social fabric of our society. then you add the mischief that china is causing here. it is a conscious foreign policy decision that they made and that is to move tonnage of

fentanyl to the cartels in mexico so that they can put it across the border and undermine the social cohesion of american society by having fentanyl kill so many of our citizens. >> harris: they are taking advantage of the weakness at our own border. a group of house democrats are splitting with the president of the united states as the white house works to cut a revamped nuclear deal with iran. one democrat says they cannot stay quiet calling the reported terms of the deal unacceptable and deeply troubling. and republicans are pushing to make sure congress gets to vote on the new iran deal which they see as a disaster in the making. >> this deal projects nothing but weakness. a nuclear iran is unacceptable. >> what's particularly sickening is russia's role in this new deal. >> suicide all to do what is

being done. the thought we would be working with the russians, putin to do the negotiations is beyond inconceivable. >> harris: general, what stands out to me the politics are a lower grade than the concern about giving iran nuclear weapons. not only that, doing a deal via russia with iran. democrats and republicans coming together in most corners. >> i think what has happened in ukraine is a factor here. an elephant in the room. it has raised everyone's awareness of the danger in the world out there and who our adversaries are and how they are taking advantage of us. the administration start evidence out with the new negotiation on a new deal and they said they would lengthen and strengthen it. those words are long gone. the fact is they're coming back with the same sunset clauses in it and by 2025, they can have -- iranians have a threshold capability close to a weapon

and in 2030 all the wraps are off and can have as many weapons as they want. so many of us objected to the deal in the first place because it was a pathway to a nuclear weapon, not a prohibition of a nuclear weapon. and the second thing that's so concerning, i think, and why there is bipartisan support here, they will get sanction relief money. billions of dollars will come into their coffers and we already know what they do with that. we watched what they did with it in 2015. they are going to buy thousands of rockets for hamas and hezbollah to rain down on israel. fuel the civil war in syria and fuel the civil war in yemen by arming their proxies. that's what they have done and that's what they will do here. >> harris: i want to factor in now russia. obviously the war against ukraine plays a role with china because china has said well, it hasn't told us what they'll do with russia's request. they are willing to buy their oil and get it at a discount

and the whole world can buy russia's oil. more reporting today on the ruble making the comeback at a 52-week high. what keeps you up at night with the nexus of russia and china right now? >> well, we haven't faced a threat like this in a very long time. we've got a very serious threat in china. their ambitions are colliding with ours and also with russia. what concerns me is we're organized in a department of defense to fight one war only and if it's against china, we will be challenged to fight and win that war because our defense capability has eroded over the years. trump budget started us on a path to fix it but we need much more robustness to fix it. so we're only organized to fight one war. we could fight two and that's the thing i think that concerns most people looking at this complex and much more dangerous world situation the united states is facing.

>> harris: every time you lean in to fight one i imagine you have to pull out of another. what happens in yemen if we're not the proxy there? what happens to those areas that russia would like to have and still not done with syria from what i'm reading, assad, a crony of putin. it gets complicated how much land russia can put its hands on whether putin is in power or not. >> it is very difficult to say we'll pivot or the pacing item. words administrations have used to deal with china. we have to pay attention to china but we also have to do our knitting with these other threats as the russians have just demonstrated to us how important deterrence is in dealing with them and iran as well as china. >> harris: general jack keane, algorithms a pleasure to have you in "focus." great to see you. despite the mayor's promises the big apple is seeing a big surge in violent crime and new

yorkers are reeling from another senseless murder. the victim is 61-year-old woman on her way home from work and this. >> the bulk of hunter's experience was in crack cocaine and prostitutes and yet sketchy foreign nationals from all over the world were lining up to make deals. >> harris: that's the kind of stuff that comes up when you say his name. critics say the denials about what the president knew and when he knew it getting less and less believable at this point. brian kilmeade ready to go in "focus" and simulcast with us. after switching to the farmer's dog we noticed so many improvements in remi's health. his allergies were going away and he just had amazing energy. it looks like nutritious food, and it is. i'm investing in my dog's health and happiness. get started at longlivedogs.com you never know what opportunities i'm investing in my dog's life will send your way. but if you have moderate to severe rheumatoid arthritis or psoriatic arthritis,

office now confirming she has tested positive. she is currently asymptomatic, fully vaccinated and boostered and will now quarantine per cdc guidelines. we do know she was with president biden within a very close proximity yesterday afternoon. you can watch it here. we also know she was with biden when former president obama visited the white house this week. pelosi kissed biden on the cheek. biden's last covid test we know of was monday. that was negative. but we know that there are members on the hill who have tested positive this week. we'll continue to watch it. >> was it common for president biden to do favors for hunter biden's international business partners? >> i have no confirmation of any recommendation letter the president wrote when he was a private citizen. >> there is evidence the president was office mates with hunter and his brother jim here in d.c. >> that's not accurate.

they were not office mates. >> they were not. okay. >> great. >> harris: more hunter. nearly daily now the white house is having to deal with new questions about the president's son, foreign business dealings and not just fox news. cbs news, nora o'donnell and many others, jen psaki refusing to explain why president biden wrote a college recommendation letter for the son of one of hunter east chinese business associates. he has repeatedly denied a speaking with his son about his business dealings. the headline, father knows best. the post details a dozen times joe biden played a role in his son's businesses. now the president's sister is cashing in on a book deal. valerie biden owens will be releasing her memoir titled growing up biden, a memoir that comes out next tuesday.

brian kilmeade co-host of "fox & friends" and host of one nation with brian kilmeade. i will start with your initial response to some of the details that are breaking now. another family member. >> cashing in. no doubt about it. you have a book deal coming in with joe biden's sister. hunter biden, who had the audacity to release his book after his dad gets elected knowing how many questions would come up from just normal everyday living. by the way, was that your laptop? when did you learn to paint using a straw? and how much crack did you actually do and were those naked pictures of you real or strippers? all this stuff was out there. he releases a book. the sister releases a book. of course, joe biden's brother, jim, is partners with hunter biden on various international deals that joe biden evidently knew nothing about.

harris, i don't know about you but it is a lot not to talk about on easter, thanksgiving, christmas, maybe naomi's wedding who is the daughter of hunter biden. if i can quote hillary clinton, you have to suspend disbelief to think for a second that joe biden didn't know at least in a macro level what was going on. i bring you to a quote from the hunter biden's daughter, naomi. this is part of the email exchange thanks to the "washington post" and "new york times" we know is real. it's okay for me to read this. i hope you can do what i did and pay for everything for this family hunter writes to his daughter, naomi. for this entire family i have done that for 30 years. it is really hard but don't worry, unlike pop, who is the president, i won't ask you to give me half of your salary. i don't know, does it seem to you like he knows something about his business deals? >> president >> harris: somebody will have to ask him about it.

with the grand jury that is convened and one investigation, it seems almost impossible they wouldn't want to talk with joe biden. not just that email but some of the other tie-ins, the reference to the big guy and the money that was flowing. the "new york post" reports that house judiciary committee republicans are demanding that 51 former intelligence operatives divulge information about their 2020 statement that documents from hunter biden's laptop could be a russian disinformation. a senior g.o.p. aide told the post the ex spies should expect subpoenas next year if they fail to comply. former c.i.a. leadership under presidents obama and bush. that's what i'm getting to. there are a lot of people they will be talking to now. that's what grand your eefs do. >> yes, leon panetta, mike morrell, john brennan, james

clapper and 51 other people put their reputation on the line in humble opinion and they needed to use their logic to make sure donald trump wasn't elected. if there are things in there and business dealings with the former vice president, how do i stop it? for the good of the country i'll sign a letter i can't possibly believe this is classic russian disinformation. how can it be? how about calling somebody on the email chain and saying is that you? did you write, devin archer did you write hunter on april 11 and start authenticating. they put their reputations in the canister and dumpster and should be forced to answer those questions. >> harris: you can look at the d.o.j. right now and you can say special counsel. i know some on our team here at fox, mark levine have called for that. and ask yourself what you trust more or less.

the d.o.j., which is part of the biden administration, do you want somebody separate, and who else do you want to hear from? because reporters are now not just our network but all over starting to sniff around. that would be a biden white house nightmare if they start to talk to some of these people, even before the investigation gets to them. it is all in the emails. we'll move on. no wonder they did all that stuff and suspended some of us for trying to talk about hunter biden's laptop. i get it now. >> like in your co-host kayleigh mcenany, she got her account suspended when she reposted the story. think about that. >> harris: violent crime in new york city showing no signs of slowing down despite the new mayor's promises to bring law and order back. the nypd says major crimes are up by more than 36% compared to this time last year. car thefts up 60%.

shoplifting up 81%. all those walgreens and pharmacies that are getting hit, hit, hit over and over by the same criminals. they keep letting them out in new york city. while murder is down, new yorkers are still very upset over the killings of innocent bystanders including the recent death of a 61-year-old woman who was walking down the street when she unexpectedly was caught in crossfire between two fighting groups. brian, it is not getting better in every category. nothing is perfect. where it is bad, it is dangerous. >> if you talk to police officers, which i know you do. they say the reason is fundamentally is they know there will be no penalty to pay for the crime committed almost outside captured murder with a gun in your hand people are getting out of prison quicker takes forever to get them to prison and released right away. cops are not going to make an arrest or be aggressive if they

know people getting out. it prompted the mayor of new york to meet with the democratic governor and others as well as the police chief at separate times and say listen, get rid of the no cash bail. i know the intent. it is not working. i have the stats. the governor -- democratic governor is beginning to move. my sense is if new york can move the rest of the country will follow. you know what's stopping it? democratic legislatures saying it is a non-starter. until you get to have to pay for your crime don't expect the cops to make a ton of arrests, no one has their back let alone the cameras that look for any type of altercation, ramification of any type of interaction that could destroy their lives and their careers and end them up in jail. i think things will turn, harris, when new york turns. >> harris: let's hope it is soon. hard to get aware of the word collusion. between the liberal d.a.s and now it would seem, i don't

know, if you are a criminal don't you love that d.a. i mean, seriously. then you talk about the democratic legislature. they've got to fix this. you have a commercial coming up. i have two sets of producers in my ear. i know you'll get yours. i have to let you go. come back any time and we'll simulcast. >> how do you know my format better than me? you know my structure better. thank you for having me on. see you in the hall. >> harris: in the hall. he had to get out of there. the hardest working man in television. check his weekend show one nation with brian kilmeade on saturday nights. your night is made here on fox news channel. fnc for the cool kids. a war of very nasty words between republican senator tom cotton and the dnc chair over the nomination of judge ketanji brown jackson to the u.s.

[cheering and applause] >> harris: president biden joking that russia's invasion of ukraine could eventually involve u.s. military during a speech to a group of labor union members. a joke. the white house now trying to clean up that joke. the president also touting new sanctions aimed at putin's adult children and russian financial institutions to hold the country accountable after describing horrific war crimes in ukraine. some republicans are asking why

did it take biden so long? >> better late than never but gosh it sure is late. why has it taken seven weeks. we should have thrown the kitchen sink at russia and imposed every sanction we could weeks ago. >> harris: peter doocy is live at the white house. >> those labor members in d.c. the president made the joke to say they'll be ready to go to ukraine to train people in that country how to rebuild things eventually. they have not been trained to go to ukraine to fight russians. >> can you clarify what that meant? >> he has no intention of sending boots to the ground or fighting a war between -- with the u.s. forces against russia. that was a reflection of his long love for labor unions and members of labor unions and the building and trades workers who were there and people he would always love to be in the

foxhole with. not an indication of a change in u.s. policy. >> there are some people unsatisfied with the president's policies who don't think he should be joking about deploying. >> it was clearly a joke. it was a weird joke. if you are going to make that joke, make it with troops. you aren't going to war with union workers. that doesn't even make any sense. >> officials say the president will keep emphasizing financial punishment for russia and putin even though the treasury secretary janet yellen says she is not sure if putin the feeling the impact of the sanctions yet. >> harris: the united nations is expected to take a vote today whether or not to suspend russia from the human rights council in response to russian troops intentionally using citizens using mass crematoriums to hide the real death toll.

germany's intelligence agency said it intercepted radio messages from russian troops describing the atrocities they carried out in bucha. >> people don't realize that putin is hiding a lot of what's going ong here and doesn't want to show especially his own citizens the staggering losses and they are bringing in the mobile crematoriums to burn the bodies of their own troops so people don't really know the numbers. >> harris: we have seen this mother throughout the whole war. she made it out of her family's underground bunker and is above ground much of the day in their former home. first of all, blessings to you. a new fresh year of life for you. your birthday and our prayers and thoughts continue to be with you here from "the faulkner focus". please tell me the truth about what they are finding. no doubt you are hearing about it on the outkirts of kyiv now

that the russian forces have pulled back. >> well, bucha is only 20 kilometers away from where i am right now. i'm living in the part of kyiv very close to bucha. what has happened there is just terrible. we know what happened. the worst thing that happened are children that were raped by russian soldiers and civilians who were killed and shot into their heads. their hands tied. women and children and basically -- i'm sure if russians were not stopped in bucha if they would come here it would happen to me and my children and it is horrible. we did not expect that it was that horrible. this is what they want to do everywhere in ukraine. a month ago i was saying they

want to make a genocide here, i thought maybe -- [inaudible] or too afraid or crazy but now we see what's happening. they just want to kill us all. >> harris: you were forecasting what you knew to be true because you were watching it. alaina, what do you tell your children about the future? >> about bucha? >> harris: about the future? >> the future will be okay. we will win the war. this is what we have -- my father joined the army and why we stay here and we do not immigrate somewhere or become refugees. we just believe that we will win and that the world will help us because it is not even a war, it a type of the civilized world, i believe the civilized world will hit back and protect itself.

>> harris: the chairman of the democratic national committee is very angry with senator tom cotton. he went after him for opposing judge ketanji brown jackson's confirmation. >> it shows you who this little

maggot-infested man is. he does not deserve to have that pen. he doesn't deserve to be in the united states senate representing the good people of arkansas. >> harris: the rnc clapped back calling those comments unhinged. a spokesperson said the smell of democrat desperation is vile and sort of sad. another said he has the message discipline of an angry toddler, terrible political instinct. senator cotton has been under fire after he compared jackson's record of defending guantanamo bay detainees to defending nazi war criminals at nuremburg. cotton defended those comments yesterday. >> three cases in which she voluntarily advocated for the terrorists at guantanamo bay in which she accused american soldiers of committing war crimes. i frankly have no patience for it. >> harris: power panel now. richard fowler, sean duffy.

former republican wisconsin congressman. richard, i'll start with you and your top line thoughts. >> i'm not sure if i would use the same language that dnc chair used there. it is worth pointing out when it comes to her defense on guantanamo detainees, it is very clear she was a public defender. she doesn't pick her cases. the system picks her cases for her. after that her law firm happened to continue with these cases. as a junior lawyer in that law firm she wrote a brief. that's the job of the defense table is to write a brief and call into question the state's evidence. that's all she did here and what a good lawyer is supposed to do. she will be a good supreme court member appointed to be appointed to put on the court. >> harris: you laid out two scenarios. one she was with the federal government and with a private law firm. in one she could have said no to those cases, the second one. >> richard would never do what the dnc chair did.

he won't call people a maggot. he is a professional and knows messaging works when you debate on issues. you have people personally that never works, right? i think it does show per the rnc they are desperate. you talk about her fidelity to the constitution, could you talk about her storied legal history? if you can't do that you call those who don't want to support her because they think she is a left wing radical you call them maggots when you debate on the facts. when those democrat senators voted against clarence thomas, were they also maggots? i don't understand how this game works left versus right. >> i wouldn't go that far and i appreciate your comments and we can agree we're professionals. if you watch the testimony carefully as i did what you saw was a competent and qualified jurist talk about her juris pru dense and agreed -- she talked

about what it is to be a judge on the federal bench. a couple minutes from now she'll get a bipartisan vote to put her ton the supreme court where the first time we'll have a black woman and a defense attorney sitting on the bench. for all the defense attorneys out there watching know how important it is to have somebody see defense table sitting on the bench looking at a case and say hold up a second here, prosecutors, you are making some mistakes. >> harris: nobody with argue that representation isn't important. i put words in your mouth, sean. i've heard you say it. what many of us have said as human beings is it would have been amazing if the president put out a shingle but he put on the bolo for the black female. imagine how many votes he would have lifted with that high tide. let's move to this. jamie harrison getting some attention saying this. >> it is a party built on fraud, fear, and fascism. and they don't deserve to be in

power. not because democrats should, but because they don't deserve to be in power of this great nation. >> harris: apparently hillary clinton was watching that and tweeted in agreement. sums it up. critics quick to tie it to that infamous campaign comment. there it is. basket of deplorables to fascism in just a few short years. another such a classy woman. can you believe voters rejected here? sean duffy. >> you know what? we're not that far away from the trump economy with policies of free enterprise and freedom that made our economy grow and everyone was working and making more money. when you don't have policies to run on. you can't run on the border or crime or inflation, you can't run on gas prices at the pump, you can't run on foreign policy you resort to fear tactics. they are fascists. you have to keep our policy and they're fascist so don't for

them. childish effort to get people to vote for you. people might not have loved donald trump's tweet but i loved his policies. i would rather have his tweets and his policies than joe biden and the destruction he has destroyed the american people. >> harris: and now you have title 42 being wiped away. democrats are pointing the finger at oil executives now happened during combative hearing on gas prices yesterday. >> to the big oil companies and why they're ripping off the american people. >> we do not control the market price of crude oil or natural gas and we have no tolerance for price gouging. >> there was another democrat saying they want to have big oil hearings like they had big tobacco hearings. >> i think most of us would agree that this just doesn't feel fair. it feels like gouging. >> we do not set the sale price

of our products. >> president biden and majority democrats should accept responsibility. >> harris: democrats trying to shield the administration from blame for record high prices at the pump. will voters who continue to list rising prices as their top concern right now buy these excuses come november? richard, real quick lightning round here. >> as a journalist i think the biden argument around the idea it's putin's gas price hike doesn't work. because of joe biden we have high gas prices is really looking very terribly at a more complicated situation. we're coming out of a global pandemic. high demand for fuel across the world. one supplier, russia, not being part of the world market and as a result many of these inputs we have high gas prices in the country and around the world. >> harris: even if we could scoop up some of those oil leases that psaki and the president keep bragging about we can't move some of that oil. we don't have enough pipeline

to do that. sean. >> spot on. as a democrat party that implemented and wants to pass the green new deal, an attack on oil and gas in america. shut down -- when prices go up they want to not blame bernie sanders, aoc and joe biden but the energy executives? let's put the blame where it belongs in democrat policies. if you buy a gas or electric car. when you shut down pipelines, no permits for pipelines. or the leases that you have. the leases -- >> harris: i have to step in. we have breaking fuss right now and regardless of that richard, he let you talk, all right? we'll practice relationships later. thank you for being here. here it is. the u.n. general assembly just voted to remove russia from its human rights council. the 47 member body needed a 2/3 vote to pass it.

it was put forth by the united states after brutal war crimes in its war on ukraine. we are watching this right now as it plays out. in just a few seconds after this commercial break, we'll begin "outnumbered" but wanted to bring this to you because this is happening now. by the way, russia gets a vote. okay, can't make that up.
