years ago. and he probably should have gotten more at the time. all right. thanks to all of you. and remember, if you have your own hit or miss, be sure to tweet it to us@jer on fnc. thanks to my panel, thanks for watching. i'm paul gigot, hope to see you right here next week. ♪ eric: we are a nation of immigrants, says president biden, but that does not mean illegal immigration. he is vowing to fix the nation's broken system for good, says the president, this as migrants and illegal drugs continue to cross across the border into our country. the scope appears challenging and immense. this as mexican drug cartels, we're told, now even using social media to help recruit people to help with their smuggling operations. you're looking live, 3 p.m. central at eagle pass, texas, 4 p.m. in the east, 2:00 -- no,

it's 1:00 out in pacific time. [laughter] i'm eric shawn, "fox news live." arthel: hello, everyone, i'm arthel neville. the numbers are stunning. this week alone deputies rescued nearly 80 migrants from a tractor tractor-trailer in texas. the texas department of public safety says it seized more than 300 million lethal doses of fentanyl. texas governor greg abbott says his operation lone star has caught more than 300,000 illegal immigrants, and those are just snapshots of a much bigger picture. griff jenkins is life at the border -- live at the border in eagle pass with the latest on this. griff? >> reporter: hey, arthel,ed good afternoon. and you put it correctly, it is stunning numbers just a week boo this first fig call year of 202. there's no signs of it slowing down, and make no mistake, this is a humanitarian crisis. take a look at the video we're going to show you now. just a couple of hours ago when i was talking with you and eric,

it is three migrants from nicaragua crossing a dangerous rio grande river. it took them the about an hour to get the courage to come across because of the currents. but as they came across had to crawl through conner is teen that wire -- conner is teen that wire. one of the migrants gettingen on his knees and praying. he had a message for president biden, that he was thankful for the opportunity to come. he'll now be processed, but he is -- these three my grans that you see crossing the river now were just three of the thousands. since i've been on the ground, arthel, in a week there have been over # 10,700 migrants in just this del rio sector alone that have been apprehended. let me show you footage of the large groups that we're e getting. this is drone footage. you can look at it, 300 plus migrants. they come every single day like clockwork, and that is why you're hearing so many like governor abbott talk about border communities being overwhelmed. we spoke exclusively to

representative tony gonzalez, a republican that represents this area. he says that when people like mayor adams, eric adams of united states, complain about the small number he's getting, it's just a splash in the pond of how big this problem is. here's what gonzalez had to say. listen. >> yeah. people along the border, we're tired of seeing these people throughout the country whine when they get 50 or 100 migrants. you know, the mayor of new york city asking for a billion dollars? meanwhile, texans are getting nothing? you know, texans have been forgotten, we've been booned by the biden administration. -- abandoned. >> reporter: and the human smuggling, arthel, is off the charts. there have been more than 75 attempts at human smuggling here in the del rio sector, and you can see in hidalgo county 84 migrants rescued inside of a tractor-trailer. they, fortunately, fared better than back in june when we saw the 53 migrants that dieded in the heat of that tractor-trailer

in san antonio. just a final note, arthel, and that is the cartel's ruthlessness. they're even taking to tiktok, advertising $70,000 for smugglers to drive migrants from mcallen to houston. in one officials say that the social media used by cartels is widespread. we'll send it back to you, arthel. arthel: i spoke to lieutenant oliveras from the texas department of safety. he says those citizens who were smuggling people into the country,they get caught, they will go to jail. griff, thank you. eric? eric: speaking of new york city, griff was talking about new york city mayor eric adams, well, nine more buses arrived in the big apple from texas today. that just one day after mayor adams declared a state of emergency in new york over what he calls a shelter crisis. the mayor says all the asigh asylum -- a i sigh lumbar seekers are simply overwhelming the city's resources and the homeless shelter system. charles watson with more on that

right now. >> reporter: hey, good afternoon, eric. new york city mayor eric adams says he's calling for federal aid to help the city deal with large groups of migrants that are being bussed in from the southern border into new york city on a daily basis. the mayor says the city is now seeing anywhere between 5-9 migrant busloads a day including new batch that rolled into new york city's port authority this morning. those migrants join about 17,000 migrants the mayor says have been sent to new york city since this spring. many of those buses have been charter by republican governors in both texas and arizona seeking to pressure the biden administration and to -- into changing its border policy. adams says it's causing a crisis in new york's shelter system where the asylum seekers are amounting to about 20% of the shelter population. city agencies are now working together to build temporary migrant housing quicker, but the mayor says new yorkers could end up paying a billion dollars for

a problem he says they never asked to take on. >> this is a humanitarian crisis that started with violence and instability in south america. and it is being accelerated by american political dynamics. thousands of asylum seekers have been bussed into new york city, simply dropped off. >> reporter: so adams has largely focused his frustrations on republicans, accusing hem of using migrants as political pawns. but busing migrants up north appears to be a bipartisan effort. the democratic mayor of el paso, a city overwhelmed by border carrotsingsings -- crossingings, has bussed at least 7300 migrants to new york city since the end of august, more than twice the number sent by texas. and speaking of texas, eric, texas governor greg abbott says that he will continue to to send those migrants to places like new york cities, chicago and

d.c. until president biden, the governor's words, does his job in fixing the crisis at the border. eric? eric: yeah, the democratic mayor of el paso involved in this too. charles, thanks. arthel? if. arthel: charles and eric, we are now learning more about the suspect in thursday's deadly stabbing spree on the las vegas strip. arrest records indicate he thought people were making fun of him and acted to, quote, let the anger out. the 32-year-old is accused of murdering two people and wounding six others. an i.c.e. source telling fox news he's a guatemalan national in the u.s. illegally with a criminal record in california. christina coleman is live in los angeles with the latest on this. christina? >> reporter: hi, arthel. yes, telemundo reports that the murder suspect in this case was here in california outside of city hall in downtown los angeles asking for help days before the stabbing spree in las vegas. the police report states that

barrios went to las vegas to stay with a friend, but the friend told him he couldn't stay, so he caught a bus to the las vegas strip. barrios tells police that people were making fun of him on the bus ride. the arrest report also says he asked show girl impersonators to take a picture with him. he thought the women were laughing at him, and he started running around to, quote, let the anger out. police say he ended up stabbing eight people with a 12-inch kitchen knife along the strip in this unprovoked attack, killing a 47-year-old and a 30-year-old. the woman is one of two show girl impersonators he's accused of stabbing. she suffered a stab wound to the chest. her brother posted a statement on facebook saying in part, quote, that she always saw the best in people, always gave them a chance and always accepted people for who they were. her huge capacity for love led her to have lasting friendships from all over the world.

she was a beautiful spirit and soul, we will miss her for the rest of our lives. as for barrios, the arrest report states he told police that he hoped officers would kill him. he also allegedly told a victim the same thing before stabbing him in the back. the clark county d.a. says regardless of his citizenship status, he is considering whether to seek the death penalty based on the evidence in this case. >> i'm not thinking about deportation right now, i'm thinking about filing very serious charges based upon the evidence. >> reporter: barrios is set to face two murder charges and six attempted murder charges with a deadly weapon. his arraignment is scheduled for tuesday. arthel? arthel: those innocent people did not deserve to die. christina coleman live in los angeles, thank you. eric? eric: well, to the economy now, arthel. the september jobs report setting off some alarm bells about the state of our economy. the data does show the labor market is still solid, the

unemployment rate at 3.5%. there are now signs of slowing. the federal reserve, we're told, may see that as a green light to further hike interest rates in the future. lucas tomlinson live in will ting month, delaware, where the -- wilmington, delaware, where the president is spending the weekend. >> reporter: the u.s. economy added 263,000 new jobs last month, the fewest since april of 2021. gas prices continue to increase since opec announced it would cut oil production. many republicans want to see president biden change his itinerary last summer. >> the biden administration made a mistake by going to saudi arabia in the first place less than three months ago. where biden should have gone was to north dakota, to west texas to find a domestic supply of oil and natural gas and the energy that the united states needs. >> reporter: despite the overall added jobs, u.s. retailers announcing nearly 30,000 new job cuts last month, a nearly 70% increase over a

year ago. normally retailers are ramping up, hiring ahead of the holidays. it's not only the economy that has president biden's attention, but also the potential of russia to launch a low yield nuclear strike in ukraine. biden sounded very concerned in leaked comments off camera at a democratic fundraiser. quote with: we have not faced the prospect of armageddon since kennedy and the cuban missile crisis. i spent a fair amount of time with vladimir putin. he's not joking when he talks about the potential use of tactical or nuclear weapons. the white house press secretary walked back those comments. >> we have not seen any reason to adjust our own nuclear posture, nor do we have indications they are preparing to use them. >> reporter: russia has 2,000 tactical nuclear warheads, the u.s. has 200, and only 100 are deployed to europe spread across five bases right now. russia can launch its tactical

nukes with cruise missiles, the same time currently firing in ukraine. it's not clear what the response would be should russia decide to launch a tactical nuclear strike in ukraine. eric? eric: lucas, thank you. arthel? arthel: meanwhile, inflation continues to be a major concern, lucas and eric. the federal reserve has tried to cool the economy by raising interest rates at even -- each of its past three meetings bringing its benchmark federal funds rate to between 3% and 3.25%. that is the fastest pace of increases since the 1980s. now some economists fear fed's actions could lead to a recession. peter morici is here, former u.s. international trade the commission chief and economist and business professor at the university of maryland. so, peter, if 263,000 jobs were added last month, that's 13,000 more than forecast by economists, dropping the unemployment rate to 3.5%, why would a strong labor market

spark concerns of higher interest rateses and a deeper recession? >> well, the economy is slowing, but it's certainly not going into a recession yet. it appears that it's decelerating. the question is does it go negative. the important thing that's been going on that is very disturbing is that each bit of news the market reacts up or down. if we get bad economic news one day, the market goes up, the fed's not going to raise rates. the next day we get good economic news, and the market goes down because they're afraid. the reality is the fed's only focusing on their inflation data, and the inflation data that are showing a clear, consistent upward trajectory. the problem is getting worse, and as long as that's the case, you can bank on the fed raising interest rates by three-quarters of a point at their next meeting unless putin did something, you know, there was some external event. that's important to note. the other thing is when paul volcker was going through this process, he was raising interest rates a full percentage point every month. so, you know, these are not

unprecedented moves. arthel: then why, if it's not unprecedented, clearly wall street doesn't like it -- [laughter] what's it going to take for wall street to stabilize? >> i think they're going to have to get inflation under control, and that doesn't mean 2%, but it certainly means, say, getting it down to 4. the important thing to remember here is that in the past after volcker contained it, we averaged 4% inflation for ten year years. that's not optimal, and interest rates were higher than in the recent past. but wall street managed to deal with that. it's a matter of going through this transition. a recession, there's going to be some corporate bankruptcies that probably should happen anyway, and then the economy will readjust and get on a flight path again. and at that point, wall street would learn, heck, we can live with 6% interest rates because, after all, 4% inflation, that's a real rate of 2, that's a fair price to pay for money, and corporations will be able to grow their profits, and dividends will -- you know, everything will go back to sort of normal.

we could live with 2% interest rates, we could live with 6. but what we need is consistency. arthel: so you're seeing this as a possibility of a correction in places where there needs to be the a correction. >> absolutely. there's been a lot of junk bonds issued at these very low interest rates in recent years. with the pandemic financing, a lot of businesses that would have failed even if there had not been a pandemic were prop pded up. and so it is a normal part of a market economy, it was it's normal in capitalism are, it's even normal in china for businesses to fail. take peloton. peloton was a fad. once they sold everybody one of those bicycles, what were they going to do? there was no sustainability there. likewise, facebook and twitter have sort of run themselves to ground, and they're now going into, you know, sort of a horizontal, coasting mode. we have these changes all the time whereas people like zoom are expanding and so forth. you know, we have new -- it's called creative destruction. we have new creation and we have firms that go away. arthel: but i tell you what, we

were all about those peloton bikes and tread mills during th- [laughter] >> oh, so was i! arthel: i was on it. [laughter] >> listen, two road races during the pandemic for $12,000 apiece. arthel: whoo, you got deep pockets. [laughter] listen, we talk about wall street, but how do we stabilize main street? especially americans who don't have plump portfolios and cash reserves? >> well, unfortunately, if you didn't save your money going into this, it's the old story that now you're going to have to repent your sins. if the federal government came in with aid as they're doing in europe, that would be counterproductive because, after all, the reason the fed is raising interest rates is to tamp down demand. demand is too much for the supply we have. so if you turn around and start giving people money to spend, why, you know, then that negates the policy. then you have to raise interest rates even more. and in the end, the recession's even worse. you know, at some point, you

know, the economy has to take its medicine for all of cash that's been thrown at it over the last three years. arthel: take the medicine and stop it with a band-aid. before we go, my final question to you, peter, is it as bad as it seems or feels to some? i mean, how would you grade our community economy -- current economy? >> it's not bad at all. you know, i hate to disappoint my conservative friends, but biden is not presiding over a bad economy. you know, 250,000 jobs a month in the previous decade would be considered just fine. and so, you know, if we look at the record of this economy both through the trump years and the biden years, really this is a trump-biden economy. it's done pretty well. but too much cash was pumped into it during the pandemic. that's biden's fault. and then there's the student loan forgiveness, more biden's fault. so that's creating inflation, and now the fed is taking this corrective action. but i expect that we might come out of this, the dynamism of the

u.s. economy will come forward again, the progress we're making in areas of technology is profound, it's breath taking. who else is putting satellites in the sky where you can get the internet anywhere and things like that? we're doing just fine. it's a matter of every so up we have to go through a correction. be optimistic. arthel: okay. i'm all for optimism. big money peter morici, two machines from peloton at 12 grand each? >> i bought road races. i went outside. arthel: whatever, all i heard was $12,000 each, peter morici. [laughter] we'll talking to -- talk to you soon, thank you. >> take care.

who wore full body, neon green leotards. police say the four suspects have 15 arrests between them. they think the assault began with some sort of altercation on the subway platform. >> by definition, these shootings are a series of killings, and so we do believe we could have a potential serial killer. that that's how we're going to treat it. do have ballistic evidence that are linking our cases and accompanied with some video footage. eric: that's the police chief of stockton, california, east of san francisco san francisco, confirming that they are searching for a potential serial kistill on the loose. there have been seven shootings over the past eighteen months. they are not gang or drug-relateed, they say, and they just have one lead. police released this grainy surveillance video. see that guy? it's a man who authorities

consider a person of interest in the case. they say she's about 6 feet tall with an uneven stride. he's got really upright posture. police say the first attack took place in oakland back of april 2021, and they're hoping someone whether recognize that attack. there were -- that person. six people killed, five of them hispanic men. police are not clear -- [inaudible] some of them are homeless, some are not. ted williams is with us, former d.c. homicide detective, fox news contributor. of ted, as the police, what would be the first tipoff? is that these are really basically in one area of stockton? most, or it seems that most of these type of random shootings have something in common, the same victim, the same ages, you know, blond women, but that's not here. what do police look for when he has such a varying range? >> hi, eric. you know, through the years i've

been on with you and arthel, and i have covered quite a few of these serial killers. for instance for instance, i covered the vpk killer in kansas. that person murdered 10 people over a 17-year period. jeffrey dahmer, who murdered 17. matter of fact, he was the last -- eating some of his victims. ted onety, who was supposed to have been very handsome, killed 35. john wayne gacy, 33 murders. then the one that gets me more than anything else and i lived through it was the beltway sniper. a guy named john mohamed from louisiana. they killed 10 and wounded 3, him and lee, his accomplice. all of these serial killers had one thing in common, a compulsive urge to kill. so what is happening here now in stockton is that the chief of police there, mcfadden, is

hoping that the public will be engaged, they will look at the gait, the manner in which the individual mt. video walked -- in the video walked and to see how tall he is, and they're hoping that they can get the public to help him at -- them at this stage, eric. eric: it's fascinating. we think of the victims in the area, but they all have a compulsion, as you said, to kill. it can be just plain evil. we can run video, as you said, they don't have much, but they do have this uneven gait which you said the person walks in. very tall. stands up, you know, they say very straight. and hoping that someone would recognize that and say, yeah, i know that person, you know, potentially, and call a tip in. you think they have more than just in that they can't tip their hands off of? >> well, absolutely. i believe they have quite a bit more. first of all, what they had to do was to tie each and and every one of these killings and

shootings to each other. and what they've done, i think, is used ballistics too that. they -- to do that. they also have covered, i'm sure, recovered physical evidence at each one of these crime scenes, and i'm sure that that is beneficial and helpful to police officers also. and also at this stage i am sure, eric, that they are getting numerous amount of tips and that they're trying to run some of these tips down. but again, these vims who are -- individuals who are serial killers can start the killing, they can stop, and then they can start again, and you can see when i read the list off a little earlier, some of these guys had been working for 17, 18 years before they were caught. eric: yeah. what's interesting about one, let's put up the timeline. because the police say it started first in april of 2021. there were two of these killings in april of 2021, and then there's a 15-month gap.

the next one is this past july. so, ted, 15 months, it stops, then it resumes. what could that tell you? did the person get a job? was the person scared? is the person back in a relationship, and the relationship wreaks -- breaks off in early july and they go at it again? what could a gap of 15 months potentially tell us? >> it's, it could be all of the above that you just mentioned, eric. what it tells me is that you have someone out here who's not consistently killing, but inconsistently killing. that that come pulltive -- compulsive urge kicks in at certain times. and remember, the m.o. from what we've been told is that these killings took place in the, at dark, when service dark out. it was dark out. and when the individuals were singly walking alone. and it is believed that the killer or killers may very well

be casing in the daytime, looking to see if there are cameras in the area before they kill people in those areas, shoot and kill people many those areas. eric: that's fascinating, because they don't have -- with all the cameras these days, they don't have video of the person. so your person, you're right, may scope out where to commit this crime where there isn't a camera. anyway, they have that person of interest, and the investigation, of course, certainly ongoing. ted williams, always good to see you. thank you. hopefully -- >> my pleasure. eric: in a few moments we're going to take a closer look at something else that's happening, a push to tighten the stalking laws in one state. get this, you actually have to know the person who's stalking you before you can press charges. it's just nuts. there's a bipartisan push now to to try and close that loophole. we'll have that story for you in a few minutes. arthel? arthel: another setback for russia's war in ukraine.

destroyed the only bridge between russia and crimea. the blast and subsequent fire decimating the car and train portions of this bridge, sending large pieces of concrete plunging into the water below. the russians say three people die after a truck explodedded, adding this that an official investigation is underway into the owner of the vehicle. >> translator: investigative actions are being carried out on his place of residence. there are movement, visuals and elephant communication being studied. >> reporter: russia used this bridge as a main supply line to support their southern offensive in the region, and the destruction is viewed as a significant intelligence achievement for ukraine. as the war rages on in the eastern part of this country, russian forces fired on ukraine's second largest city of car conservative overnight. -- car kharkiv overnight. we felt the blasts as they happened.

the windows shaking and the city tonight preparing for the possibility of more russian attacks. eric? eric: trey, thanks so much. arthel? arthel: all right, is -- meanwhile, a provocative warning about putin from president biden may now be causing friction with a major western ally. on thursday president biden said putin's nuclear saber-rattling over ukraine is the the great risk of, quote, arm bed -- armageddon since the 1962 cuban misif sill crisis. french president emmanuel macron taking issue with the president's remark. >> translator: i have generally always refrained from doing fictional politics, and i think it's especially appropriate when talking about nuclear. i believe that on this issue we must be very careful. arthel: let's bring in jamil jaffer, founder and director of the national security institute, also former associate white house counsel to president george w. bush. all right, is president biden being hyperbolic, or is putin

getting desperate enough or feeling humiliated enough to pull nuclear trigger? >> well, arthel, certainly vladimir putin is concerned. he's faced a significant number of setbacks, and so he's probably feeling a certain bit of president bush. whether he'd actually use -- pressure. whether he'd actually use nuclear weapons, it seems unlikely. what president biden is doing is trying to warn putin off from using such weapons. he's got to be tougher and, frankly, president macron needs to be clearer that we would come down the very heavily on vladimir putin if he did so. that's what the world needs now, not saying the right words or not. arthel: interesting take on that. so would a response be required? i mean, and what could that response be? and how could a response, you know, stop putin without kicking off armageddon? >> well, arthel, i think key is to actually try and deter this

from happening altogether. and part of the reason why we see putin in ukraine9 and the like is he doesn't think the allies are going to get tough enough, that they're going to respond effectively, and he's partially been right. we've provided arms but not more so. he's got to know that if he uses tactical nuclear weapons that the allies, not just the united states, but our european allies, would intervene and potentially go further. he needs to know that's on the table. arthel: yeah, understood. and, of course, we're not advocating for any sort of nuclear, you know, reaction or aggression from putin. meanwhile, you've got kim jong un, excuse me, kim jong un who morally fires missiles, as you know, to get attention, appease his people. but he now is in the middle of very aggressive behavior. north korea fired two ballistic missiles today off the east coast towards the sea of japan, towards japan. is kim young welcome back un's -- kim jong un's actions

different this time? is japan in danger? >> we've seen him do this before, so it's not completely out of character. it's the pace and the rate at which he's doing it. we've seen now 24 separate missile launches this year alone, almost 4 dozen missiles that he's launched. we know that he's working on liquid-fueled missiles that will allow him to get closer and closer to the united states. he's trying to create a submarine-launched nuclear missile. what we really need now is for the u.s. to put more pressure on china to reel kim jong un in. without china getting engaged,st going to be very hard to do on our own. arthel: we're showing pictures of them firing this missile from a train. you mentioned china because russia and china, well, they continue to support and back north korea. china with significant clayed contracts with the9 united states, president xi wanting to be taken seriously on the global stage. still, though, he's undeterred from supporting kim jong un, so why aren't there significant consequences for china?

>> well, a that's exactly right. we need to put significantly more pressure on china. the biden administration has reduced the sanctions, the pressure that president trump had put on china. we need to make clear to them their support of north korea's not acceptable, threats against taiwan are not acceptable, and their treatment of a million uighurs is also unacceptable. arthel: is there's a lot going on, you know? we just highlighted russia and ukraine, the bridge linking russia to crimea has been blown up. you've got kim jong un acting out more than he ever has before. where is all this headed? if you could sum in the up for us in terms of what we, excuse me, americans, just regular people watching this feeling very anxious about it, what are we to take away from this? >> i think, arthel, this is what happens when america's not viewed as strong in the world, when america's viewed as not backing its allies and not being, you know, aggressive against its adversaries. we've seen now too many presidents in a row afraid to

use american power and frightened by it. and as a result, we're not frightening our enemies, we're not emboldening our allies. we need to be tough and strong and demonstrate to the world that we are a superpower, we remain in the game. arthel: understood, but does that mean bringing more troops, perhaps, into hot wars? >> we don't -- [inaudible conversations] arthel: yeah. the american people don't want that. go ahead, jamil, sorry. >> right. you're exactly right. the american people are tired after a long war in afghanistan, a long war in iraq that we're now out of. but the safest way to assure that american troops aren't needed to be deploy overseas is to deter our allies -- our enemies from acting. unfortunately, our enemies don't see us as a real threat, and as a result, hay tend to act out like we see with vladimir putin, iran in the middle east and now with north korea in asia. arthel: jamil jaffer, thank you very much, as always. we'll be right back.

all across the country, people are working hard to build a better future. so we're hard at work, helping them achieve financial freedom. we're investing for our clients in the projects that power our economy. from the plains to the coasts, we help americans invest for their future. and help communities thrive.

arthel: a notorious con artist released from i.c.e. custody was set free from a new york correctional facility yesterday. she's also been banned from social media with as her case winds through immigration court. she's a 30-year-old german national who used the name anna delvy to pose as a fake heiress. prosecutors say she swindled more than a quarter of a million dollars from banks, luxury hotels, restaurants and a private jet company. she was sentenced to 4-12 years many prison in 2019 but was released 2 years later on good behavior and time served. she was detained by i.c.e. weeks later for overstaying her visa. eric. eric: have you or anyone you know been talked? -- stalked? well, the department of justice says about 1 is.5 million

americans are stalked each year and, sadly, some cases do end in tragedy. in one state, new jersey, get this: you actually have to know your stalker before you can even press charges. but now there's a move to close that shocking loophole. >> i am a single mom. i am also a survivor of domestic violence, and i need to feel safe. eric: ella says she is being stalked. for nearly a year, the new jersey fashion store owner has received mysterious anonymous texts like this one. hi, how are you doing lately? and 1-800-flowers delivery with a card that reads: hope you have a great weekend, signed someone. ella says the company will not tell her who ordered the flowers, and she is scared. >> i can't call the police because technically, was i assaulted was the first hipping they asked. well -- thing they asked. well, where is the crime?

do i just sit and wait to be targeted, or do i take the opportunity to talk about it? eric: a move to toughen the law comes from jon bramnick. >> in new jersey you not get a restraining order unless you're in a relationship or you're in the household. eric: what do you think about this? >> it's ridiculous. eric: he says his legislation would make it easier for stalking victims to get protection because he says the law should not exclude stalkers their targets don't know. >> they're afraid of too many people seeking restraining orders. let me tell you, if there's that many crazy people out there, that's more evidence of why we need the law. so a stranger who you don't know who you don't know how crazy that person is, you can't get a restraining order. eric: ella says she and otherring victims need the safeguards bram nick's bill would provide against anonymous stalkers. >> i hope the person that is behind this stops. i am a mother. i am a business owner. it affects me in so many

different ways. i can't be myself. there shouldn't be that loophole. that shouldn't exist. not today. eric: what will your bill do? >> simply say if someone harasses you or stalks you or threatens you whether you know them or not, the court can give a restraining order to protect you. not that complicated. bipartisan support. i expect the bill to move. eric: in a statement, 1-800-flowers says in part, quote: we do not disclose the name of individuals who send flowers anonymously unless a subpoena or court order requesting such information is issued. once we receive a legal request, we cooperate fully with law enforcement. >> what are we waiting for to change these laws? what are we waiting for to have the protection that we need? eric: you know, the national coalition against domestic violence, that group says in all about 25 million americans have been stalked at some point in their life. and more than one-quarter, a

quarter with, of the people who are stalked did not even nope who is targeting them. senator bram nick and ella certainly hope that the new law will be passed to help the victims as soon as it can be done. and we'll have more news right after this. try boost® high protein with 20 grams of protein for muscle health. versus 16 grams in ensure high protein. boost® high protein also has key nutrients for immune support. boost® high protein. the new subway series menu. the greatest sandwich roster ever assembled. tony, the new outlaw's got double pepper jack and juicy steak. let's get some more analysis on that, chuck. mmm. pepper jack. tender steak. very insightful, guys. the new subway series. what's your pick?
