[bleep] biden. >> nobody f witness an biden except venezuela, saudi arabia, every other opec nation. >> steve: going to cut output by 2 million barrels a day. >> who is going to pay for it? the average american. >> crime still on the rise. >> president biden headed to pew kidnap is i. a father of three was killed in that same city. >> house democrats have put

forward a criminal first agenda. >> being disguised as handy before halloween. >> 15,000 pills headen inside a lego box a federal appeals court has ruled will daca violates u.s. immigration law. >> although it appears ran ons field during the 49ers game filed a police report against two players who stopped him and the nfl. the animal rights protester laid out by bobby wagner when he attempted to make a statement. ♪ and i think it's going to be a lock, long time. >> brian: knock off of elton john's song. i don't like it. 650,000 people live in that

city. >> steve: number one song in the world for about a year. >> ainsley: i aremake with elton. >> brian: i don't like it. this is a city that does not have a playoff baseball team it. must be very empty, the city of champions for way too long between the patriots and red sox. get used to it now we have two new york teams in the baseball playoffs. we got two football teams have great promise. >> steve: you were taking such a shot at the city of boston you have a cold cold heart. >> brian: do we have that song, too? >> steve: that was the song. what elton john did took rocket man and another song glommed them together, made that song it was gigantic hit. >> ainsley: i went to the concert when performing out on long island the night before. we all knew she was going to come out on stage the next night when we were at the elton john concert. i thought they were going to sing it together. we were all so excited she didn't. >> brian: it wasn't good.

>> steve: when peter and i went to the elton john show she is going to show up when he sings that song and she was on video. >> ainsley: she was on video. she was beautiful but she was singing and he was singing a long. she was on the big screen in the back. >> brian: we will continue to follow that story and try to squeeze in some news. two minutes after the hour now. president biden is heading to poughkeepsie new york today to promote his economic agenda. >> steve: that's right. the visit comes just days after poughkeepsie was in the news ever after the death of a father hit during crossfire an argument at merritt two suspect marriotty convictions. the dad was getting a cup of coffee. it was cold. >> dad was doing what your parents and what you as a parent did. stayed at a local hotel, got coffee in the lobby, was going to go visit their child in college for the family weekend. kevin corke joins us live with more. kevin? >> yeah. that was just such an awful story. i will tell you more about that in just a moment, guys, steve,

ainsley and brian. good morning to you and good morning to everybody out there. the hudson valley as you may know is actually home to three very closely watched congressional races that ultimately could prove pivotal in determine hog is going to control the house next year. and it's against that back drop that the president will travel today to poughkeepsie where he will visit an ibm plant to discuss as you pointed out, brian, job creation in the region. however, sadly, poughkeepsie has had its share of struggles of late. notably this is the very same city where two suspects accused of killing a father of three at marist college hotel involvement in previous gang related murder and robbery. >> joe biden and house democrats have put forward a criminals first agenda. so not only do we have this horrendous murder but we have some type of bomb-related equipment. this is a real threat to public safety. we want safe communities.

we want our law enforcement supported by all elected officials. we are not getting that right now. >> this is all happening as new york city and los angeles are refusing to hand over their crime sets to the fbi assed national murder rate jumps by will 4.3%. other crimes could be woefully under reported. a change in the fbi's methodology could mean the agency could miss an estimated 2.1 million total crimes across the country based on 2021 stats. also knew this morning, this from the city with the most murders in america right now. sadly, that would be new orleans. the mayor of the crescent city latoya cantrell has agreed to pay back nearly $30,000 to the city that she spent on luxury flights. she is actually a democrat and been at the center of controversy involving city

money. she says she will pay for the first class flight upgrades following a policy review by city folks who take a look at the dollars and cents. i should also point this out. the white house is accusing opec of siding with russia. we expect to unpack that story just a bit more today as of course we are all watching the pain at the pump increase each and every day guys. >> brian: do you know what i don't goat kevin? how does new york and lay say i'm not going to give you my stats? you telling your own fbi not going to share your stats. >> one of those stats that cities usually slow walk i heard this happens in philadelphia and other cities. we will get you the stats. we promise we will get around to it. now what they are doing is actually fudging the numbers a little bit with the methodology to make matters each worse. we will get to the bottom of it, unfortunately, for most americans who live in those cities they are not going to

know the real deal for quite some time. >> probably do know the real deal they know it's out of control in new york. i will weigh in on that. >> steve: thank you, kevin. in new york and los angeles both. this is why they don't want to share the information. they look terrible. new york and l.a. both. more than 300 murders so far this year overall violent crime is running rampant. and the problem is the randomness of it the e.m.t. won who was so close to retirement just stabbed in the throat and died the guy up in poughkeepsie went to get a cup of coffee. brian, i don't know and ainsley i don't know about you but have you told family members you know, things are different you need to be more careful. watch my wife gave me for my 30th birthday it's in a safety deposit box.

i drive the subaru into the city you mate be a target. you never know now. >> ainsley: some stories. all running through my mind. every time i go lunch with a co-worker or a friend or another mom from my daughter's school, we all have a story. and so we are all just getting so tired of it. it is random. all of y'all have gotten a cup of coffee in a hotel lobby. all of y'all if you have been to new york have probably ridden the subway. all of these things we are used to doing you can't do anymore. we have all gone to an atm. now watch your back when you go to the atm. you premiere driving to the atm in new york you have to do it on foot. you walk into these little tiny boxes these rooms. and you don't know who is around the corner. who is hiding behind the column. >> brian: meanwhile, look at the numbers. you can't lie from this. this question was asked. how do candidates' views on crime impact your vote in the midterm? 60%. six out of every 10 of you said it's a major role. 33% minor. 70% no role. another question, how much of a

problem is crime in the u.s.? 77% say it's a real problem. 17% say not a big deal. a minor problem. and that's why it's such a joke when the president of the united states tries to tell you that gas prices have come down. look how much they have come down over the last few days. well now they have gone up again. refuses to bring up crime. people know it's a major problem by avoiding it you are not actually helping their lives. for the president the united states to go to poughkeepsie to go meet with officials to talk about the increase i guess in economic value ibm or somebody is opening up. >> steve: $4 billion to build chips. >> brian: why wouldn't you just say listen, it's to our benefit. let's go over to that hotel and have a press conference at that hotel. i want to see if we could meet with the family. >> steve: they would look terrible. so many soft on crime policies with this administration, with democrats in general. they don't want to do that it is an unfortunate coincidence that he would be going into that same town. at the same time, and we have

all talked about the homeless drivers as well here in new york city. and we are going to talk about how they are building a tent city. a lot of the homeless also factored into the fact that we have got these migrant buses headed to new york city. two migrant buses arrived in new york this morning. one bus, another one of those buses arrived in front of the vice president's house down at observatory circle in washington, d.c. once again, the governors of texas just trying to say hey, america, pay attention. look what's happening to our state. we are getting all these migrants. so we are shipping them off. and now people are talking about it. >> brian: so the administration would not address the problem at the border. mayorkas sits there and plays defense. the president doesn't bring it up. and the vice president doesn't go. you, as the general press doesn't ask questions until these governors start shipping them to these blue cities now it becomes a major issue. in new york, the governor finally spoke up. governor hochul who is just way in over her head.

she has spoke up and says i'm going to get the national guard to help out with new york's tent city opening up at randles island after failed attempt to open it up in aoc's district in the bronx. >> ainsley: eric adams our governor -- excuse me our mayor in new york city. we were reporting last week he was going to put up big tent city in orchard beach. now he is saying he is going to move to to randal island because he got a lot of blow back because apparently that first location was flood-proned and too far from public transportation. >> steve: aoc didn't want it in her district. what's the real reason, right? because they always spin it. moving it to randles island. we all know randle island you don't at home probably. it's an island right next to new york city driving long island you pass the exit. >> next to rikers island. >> ainsley: huge tennis facility new york become good at tennis that's where they go to compete. after school play tennis there.

a lot of the schools send the kids over that island to play football and have football practice there because they don't have the big facilities here in new york city. so, anyway. that's where they are going to build a tent city. the governor has tapped the national guard to help she is calling in 100 members of the reservists. they say there are 16,000 asylum seekers here in new york. the texas governor cents 2900 since august 5th. the el paso mayor has sent 2300. >> brian: all of that that is a waste. september 7th putting it up. pay those same people to take it down shipping. it's all come out of our dollars. and six weeks ago there is a big story how they are so in the red in new york city. every single department, including the cops and firefighters, have to take 3% from their budgets. while we are wasting millions of dollars on people that don't belong here who have begun to overcrowd your classrooms. might be the best kids in the world. that's not we can afford your

kids deserve better. >> steve: but the city got billions from the american rescue plan. >> brian: where is it? >> steve: good question. here's the thing. so what they are doing now is build it on randal island but yesterday the new york city city council blasted the randle island. we would be winter and it's cold. what they suggested is there are 10 empty hotels in new york let's put them in hotels in new york instead. if you remember, it was about a month, month and a half ago we did the story about how the city was looking for 6,000 hotel rooms? though have been trying to get the very latest on it. apparently none of the hotels would sign contracts with the city of new york. apparently they didn't want to do business with migrants in anywhere facilities so they have not. that is why they are building these facilities, 10 structures,

soft sided buildings to try to handle all the people. >> ainsley: how are they going to handle? it's going to get so cold on randal's island. it gets freezing january and february right there on the water everyone colder next to the water. >> brian: we will not have enough tents soon. topping out at 16,000. with the president landing planes in small airports in new york city area. and governor abbott and everybody else sending people to our city, it's not -- we are going to be overwhelmed and that is why lee zeld, according to gibraltar poll is within two points of governor hochul. 2 points. >> ainsley: running for governor in this state against kathy hochul. >> brian: she doesn't want to debate. >> ainsley: lindsey graham and said this is the reason we might impeach you. >> brian: the president doesn't want to do it. you heard cuellar said that mayorkas told him that these left wing immigrant groups have gotten to the president.

therefore, he is helpless to stop the flood of illegals coming to our border. and we are the victims of somebody else's political agenda. >> steve: because the president gets to set the policy. and then mayorkas is simply following the boss' order. >> brian: he should resign. >> steve: joe biden or mayorkas. >> brian: i would take both. we will see what happens. >> ainsley: carley has the headlines. >> carley: we certainly do. we are following an awful story out of the west coast here. four california family members kidnapped at gunpoint were found dead overnight. member said police confirming there were fears after finding the bodies of an 8-month-old baby girl, her parents and her uncle. surveillance video from the family's business shows a man walking them out in zip ties. the kidnapping suspect was hospitalized after trying to take his own life following his arrest on tuesday. no motive has been released so far. florida governor ron desantis and president biden putting

politics aside to survey damage and pledge support to hurricane ian recovery effort. watch this. >> the spirit of the people of this state and southwest florida has been phenomenal. >> you got to start from scratch. got to move again. and it's going to take a lot, a lot of time, not weeks or months, it's going to take years. >> carley: the president's visit comes as crews continue the around the clock search for survivors a week after the hurricane made landfall. more than 215,000 people are still without power. the number of people confirmed dead from the storm rising to 109. the biden administration says sanctions against venezuela will remain in place. that despite a "wall street journal" report that indicates the president would ease sanctions if the communist country allowed chevron to pump more oil. a spokesperson for the national security council saying in part there are no plans to change our sanctions policy without

constructive steps from the maduro regime. our sanctions policy on venezuela remains unchanged. we will continue to implement and enforce our venezuela sanctions. the report on hospital sanctions relief comes a day after opec plus voted to slash oil production by 2 million barrels a day. and mcdonald's workers are n not. >> you have more news to relay to us look at the prompter. >> ainsley's book so glad she

was born hit number one on the "new york times" best seller. >> brian: fantastic. >> carley: congratulations. >> ainsley: it's not me. it's the whole team. harper collins is the publisher. and they have imprint called amazon der kids. christian impresent. the book does mention god, god has a purpose for your life. and you -- you all purchased this book. we had the first book we ran out of books because we sold. >> steve: big creepy crayon. >> ainsley: when i saw that i was like the pigeon book we read those all the time. >> carley: i don't know. >> ainsley: know all about the pigeon books. so i'm so humble and grateful. pinch myself this little girl from south carolina got this great job at fox news and y'all trust us in the morning and we wake up with you and i'm just so grateful and i am so glad all of you were born. >> brian: especially with credit cards. amazon account. >> ainsley: just share with someone who needs to hear this

message kids grandkids godchild or someone who maybe has a momma works three jobs to put food on the table and she is not at home a lot to be able to message to the children. >> steve: carley has the first book for the baby. >> carley: there are a couple pages that i genuinely got a little emotional at. you wrote it so beautifully. the ri rhymes are so special and really touches your heart. >> ainsley: hayden and i read it again last night. she picked out the illustrator. i put all the pictures on the floor i like that one. that was the one y'all picked too. kathy doocy gave me the title we say this. kathy doocy said this needs to be the title of your book. >> steve: it takes a village. >> ainsley: if you want a signed copy, ainsley books.com. thank you all. i love y'all i'm so humbled. >> brian: meanwhile 20 minutes after the hour. still ahead. march to the midterms. republicans are gaining ground in some key senate races.

but, in georgia, controversial abortion allegation against republican candidate herschel walker could impact the race. here to weigh in our all-star political panel fox news contributor lara trump along with plus ceo and hispanic market expert lili gil valletta. speak georgia co-founder calvin king. good morning, everyone. >> good morning. >> steve: lara, since you are on the top row with me right now. what will be, ultimately, what sends people into the voting booth and that will be the deciding factor. will it be crime? will it be michaels? migration?will it be economy tht gas is killing us all? >> well, i think there are many factors that americans are facing right now. we have seen our standards of living decline for the first time in america.

ever, really. and that is a really sad place, i think, for so many people to find themselves. in the fact is you have inflation outpacing wage growth. people cannot keep up with their bills. people have to make these horrific decisions do i fill up my gas tank or i do put food on the take for my family? am i able to actually go grocery shopping? and i think that that is probably the biggest factor for people right now as they look one month ahead and they see no end in sight to this. you know, we were told that inflation was transitory. of course, that was a lie. recently, the federal government told us that it was at zero. that we didn't have anything to worry about. but it is a very big problem day to day for people. i think even people who are not highly attuned to politics. and the nuances of everything, feel how this has impacted our every day life. and they need a change. and they know who brought it to us. the policies of the democrats. and i think they are paying very close attention to what every republican has said which is

that we have to turn this ship around. we cannot continue in this direction. >> >> steve: lily gill i know you do demographic polling probably going to impact the races in some respect. >> absolutely, we can't forget that back in 2020 the difference between biden and trump was 44,000 votes. that's not a lot. in three states georgia illinois and wisconsin that's why we run intelligence by segment. all the growth, the majority of growth in those key states are coming from black anspanic voters every 30 seconds a young latino is turning 18 years old when we are seeing now for example hispanic is less predictable than ever before. we saw it with the race in south texas when mayra flores flipped that seat and many more are set

to narrow that margin, it's going to be critical. for example, in nevada, you know, we already have seen independent conservative pacs putting as much as $2 million in spanish language to try to, you know, take that space from cortez masto. it is important because shifting demographics shifting the makeup of constituents and we have growth regardless of party have to do the outreach and have relevant issues as lara said. it is the economy. it is crime. and everything else, sure, is an added bonus but people are going to be voting with their wallets. >> steve: sure. calvin, what about you? you are down in georgia and there have been all sorts of allegations in the news over the last 48 hours or so about herschel walker. how are these going to impact what happens in less than five weeks? >> well, i'm not surprised that lots is coming out in october. you know, this is october surprise month. but i want to start out by saying that janel my wife janel and i are praying for mr. walker

and his family. we know how grueling a race like this, a statewide race in georgia can be. it's just not on the candidates. also grueling on the family as well. and we understand that there is going to be challenges. i mean, when i ran, i campaigned in every county in the state of georgia all 159 counties from the largest to the smallest. and the things that we were hearing, they weren't concerned about the personal back story of candidates. they are concerned about kitchen table topics. concerned about cost of living, crime, and educating the children. as long as we focus on those key topics, we will be just fine in november. >> steve: november less than five weeks away. lightning round, where we sit today on october 6th, all right. if the election were held today, who would win the senate? lara, you are first. quick answer. >> i'm going republican but we have to all make sure we get out and vote and take somebody to vote with you. >> steve: all right, lili gil?

>> i'm going to vote republican, too. there is a big movement with that economic factor on the top there is a big bet on republicans. >> steve: kelvin, you said kitchen table stuff. who wins? >> all day long the republican topics. they are a lot smarter and resonate with more people. that's going to make the difference getting people out to vote and making sure that their vote counts and they see a difference in their pocketbooks based on their vote and their political leaning. >> steve: indeed. let's see how it all shakes out. ladies and gentleman, thanks for joining us live. >> thank you. >> thank you. >> steve: you are welcome. all right. coming up on this thursday, search and rescue operations still underway in florida as president biden sees ian's devastation firsthand. we are live with what is complicating the effort to find people in florida.

# robert ray with fox weather tells us the latest. robert? >> good morning here. and you see the devastation once again as the sun is coming up on what usually is paradise here in southwest florida. and unfortunately, it is hell on earth here right now. a week after hurricane ian has rav vanned this region. as you mentioned, president biden and governor desantis touring from the air and the ground yesterday. giving remarks. trying to give people some reassurance that life will go on as residents drive by and assess their damaged homes. let's listen to florida governor ron desantis yesterday. >> we have got a lot of work to do here. i will tell you, the spirit of the people of this state and southwest florida has been phenomenal. when i'm meeting with people that have lost everything, they are thankful that they have so many people that are there

supporting. that's true really, you only get there if it's a team effort. >> there are still thousands without power here this morning. aid groups are circling the region, giving out provisions and water. there has been over 70,000 door knocks in the region. nearly 4,000 people rescued across the inlet amid this disaster on fort myers beach. crews are still sifting through piles of debris that are literally 10, 20 feet high at this point. president biden yesterday speaking about how long this is going to take to recover. >> we're here today because we wanted to tell you in person that we are thinking of you and we are not leaving. we are not leaving until this gets done. i promise you that an unimaginable storm ripped it to pieces. you have got to start from scratch. got to move again. and it's going to take a lot, a lot of time. not weeks or months, it's going

to take years. >> business is destroyed here there are people without homes, people without jobs, people without vehicles. the list of issues here is just remarkable. over 100 people are dead in this region that is so important to the united states poem that have retired here and vacationed here. it's disseminated. the reality has truly sunk in here this morning in southwest florida. >> brian: all right. thanks, robert. >> steve: robert, i have got a quick question for you and that is this. every time there is a natural disaster, first, they are in the rescue mode, trying to get as many people out that are still alive and then at the point where they realize there just are no more people to rescue, and then it becomes a recovery effort. you were talking about how they were sifting through the rubble looking for bodies. how many days that had been since they have found anybody

alive? >> that's a great question. they are keeping a lot of those details sort of to themselves at this point. you have to understand why. because it's a very sensitive topic. but, according to officials i have spoken to. there are still many people that are missing. you talk to residents around here. they know people that they can't get ahold of. and that's why, you know, yesterday the fire chief of fort myers beach explained to me that he believes that this search and rescue on these barrier islands could be another 5 to 7 days. and the complication of the amount of debris to go in this, under it, from the air as well. i mean, they are ascending down from choppers, they are on the ground. they are sifting through this with cadaver dogs. trying to figure it out. there is dangers underneath all that rubble. even though water and gas lines are shut off. you don't know what you are going to find. that is the issue here. and if people wonder -- if

people say why didn't people evacuate when there was a mandatory evacuation, you know, the honest answer is. this there are many people that wanted to evacuate and perhaps some of them didn't have the means to do so. but, also, the trajectory and changing patterns of this storm created almost no time for many of those people as you see the trucks go by that are trying to remove debris. it is truly a shell-shock situation here this morning in southwest florida. >> brian: thanks so much, robert. and, of course, you could follow this story and all the other latest developments with weather by down loading the fox weather app. to any of your connected devices. kind of odd yesterday the president brought up his own fire in delaware, which upon further review was just a kitchen fire that was out in 20 minutes. he always tries to make up stories that relates to people, most all the time. they are not true. it's so bizarre. >> ainsley: still ahead, a warning to parents ahead of

>> ainsley: with halloween only a few weeks away dea officials are sounding the alarm how officials targeting our children. colorful pills hidden in things like lego boxes even inside candy packages like at that skittles and nerds. rain ball fentanyl has been seized in 21 states. so what do we as parents need to know joining us is jack reilly. hey, jack, thanks for being with us. >> my pleasure, good morning. >> ainsley: good morning. what do we need to know as parent and how do we talk to our children about it? >> i think what you are doing is great.

education is crucial. we need to make clear to kids when they go trick or treating or acquire candy they need to know who it is they are getting it from. what's more important, this is where the adults have got to get involved. if my son is going to go trick or treating i'm going with him and when he is done collecting his goods, i'm going to go through it before he consumes it. and if it is not -- if it doesn't look legitimate or seems out of place, clearly you don't want to ingest it and you want to call the police because this is right out of the mexican cartel's playbook what they are doing. they are going after the most vulnerable. we saw this before with heroin will 10 years ago and taking fentanyl to the next level. >> ainsley: i had to talk to my daughter about it before you open your candy. we used to do it looking foray zore blades. bad people are putting drugs in candy boxes and it makes momma worried. she said what will happen? what will happen, momma? what do we say to our children?

how do we explain it? >> i think we got to be straight up with them. what we do know is that even one pill can kill. and if you look at the victims across the united states in the last four or five years, many of them had no idea what it was they were taking. or who they acquired it from. they are really the victims of new organized crime as we are seeing it in this country. to be straight with our educators, to be straight with parents, with coaches. everybody needs to get on the same page here and warn our kids. ainsley: hey, jack, i wanted to ask you are these drug dealers or people that they found this colorful -- these colorful drugs on, are they just using that to evade police and try to get over the border or if they get caught police won't know what it is, they will just think it is candy or are they actually putting it in candy and selling it to people? how would it get from those drug dealers into our halloween boxes? >> produced primarily in mexico. brought across the border

obviously illegally. and then they will package it in any way they can to sell it and to move it. much of it is done to disguise exactly what it is. you see here in your illustration of colorful packaging, but it's all done to appeal to the user base that they are going after. in this case it's young kids. and that's what really keeps me up into the night because we are seeing this expand across the country. >> ainsley: in school we used to buy candy and they would go class to class and sell it and go to charities so our teachers would let us have it. i'm scared some kid could buy that and it could get in the wrong hands. i don't know. we all have candy around our house. what if the 15-year-old in your house does have this fentanyl pill in a nerds box and their 8-year-old brother or sister goes and thinks it's the real candy and it's not? >> that's exactly what parents should really be concerned about. and i think the more we move closer into the holiday season, it's even more important that we

become aware and twin to communicate with our children. >> ainsley: jack, thank you so much. >> my pleasure. >> ainsley: all right. let's check in with our senior meteorologist janice dean for fox weather forecast. scary to children who love candy. >> janice: important story as we get closer to halloween. beautiful in new york city. we will take that as sunshine because the sun is coming out after several days of wet weather. take a look at the maps. i will show you where a cold front is moving across the central u.s., bringing the coldest air of the season. 100 million people below average today. that will stretch to 1,081,000,000 below average. and then 133 below average. 133 million by the way. look at this. this is the comparison. 76 wednesday, friday is 53. in chicago. that's the cold front we are talking about. we could actually see some flurries across the great lakes region. get used to it because winter is coming. but, for now, across the south, temperatures remain very warm and summer-like.

so, if you like the summertime you can go south. it's going to be gorgeous. the west coast also very mild. we will watch that cold front and also tracking the trons. the good news here, ainsley, this will not impact the u.s. and across florida. we are expecting dry conditions for the next five days for the recovery effort. over to you, my friend. >> ainsley: great news. thank you so much. get a head start on holiday shopping with mega morning deals. we have bargains including this luggage set that steve has at 77% off. good deal. ♪ ♪
