shortly after 10:00 p.m., presumably there were a number of people in there still doing their shopping. it's a super center so there is a grocery store in there as well. gunshots rang out. we now know from chess week seven dead, including the shooter, here is what the chesapeake police had to say in its first prefere press conferee a listen. >> they realized it was an active threat situation we switched our tactics to active threat response and went that motion. several hours, many other officers also f responded, we located multiple fatalities and multiple injured persons. later through the course of providing treatment we were able to establish that we believe it's -- we believe it's a single shooter and that single shooter is deceased at this time. >> and of the injured, five have been teen a local hospital and, of course, as i mentioned, seven

dead. unclear, guys, what the motive was or any details about the shooter. walmart put out a statement very quickly saying this: we are shocked at this tragic event at our chesapeake, virginia store. we are praying for those impacted, our community and associates we're working closely with law enforcement and focused on supporting our associates and there is a very large law enforcement footprint here already. the sun not yet up. we did have a little bit of reaction from one of the walmart employees that was inside, take a listen. >> just left out of the break room, management came in there and started capping people up in there started shooting, bro. sad, you know, we lost a few associates. i don't know how many. i'm not going to speak on it. he can tell you he plotted this

bloop waiting on more details. around 8:00 a.m. the area where we are by the way is just outside of norfolk. you would be headed on a major highway on 64 towards virginia beach. very busy area. but, as you can see, this entire sort of shopping center shut down right now with a very large crime scene as they try to learn more details but the tragic news to get started here just a day before thanksgiving, seven dead, five in the hospital. the shooter -- the shooter believed to be among the dead. guys, send it back to you. >> brian: griff, how would you describe this area? it's a nice area,. >> yeah it is a nice area outside of norfolk and very busy shopping area. lots of restaurants. that's why we don't know and obviously we'll find out more but presumably a little after 10:00, it would have been a pretty busy, we did hear another interview from one of the law enforcement people talking about how it's such a large walmart in

and of itself. they may still be finding people inside who are hiding once the shots wrong out. obviously in these situations all too accustomed to it people sheltering in there. waiting to get more details right now. the latest is obviously, the chesapeake police saying that the shooter believed to be among the dead, so, there's no active threat right now to this community. >> steve: "the washington post" is saying that the washington field division of 9 bureau of alcohol, tobacco firearms and explosives is assisting. do we know of any explosives that might be involved in this? >> we have not been. we spoke with the pio, the chesapeake police. we did not get any details on any explosives but fox news can confirm that the washington area atf is in route are already

perhaps on site. took us three and a half hours to get down here. we knew at that point they were already in route. exactly why they are here, we don't know what type of weapon. we don't know either what was used. all those details we are hoping to get soon. >> ainsley: all right, griff, thank you. they have a press conference at 8:00 this morning we will learn more details. some reports saying that it was the manager. that was has not been confirmed. more details in two hours. >> steve: based on what that guy said. details officially two hours. >> apparently there was a facebook live video and maybe that was it. >> when griff is not coverings shootings he is at the better and that's where kevin mccarthy was yesterday. is he a few votes shy of being speaker. i don't think that has anything to do with he was there it was republican priority and should be a priority of every lawmaker. every law enforcement agent to secure our border. i can't imagine anything more important. many portions of our population don't seem to think. so but kevin mccarthy went down there. and he had a mission. and he had a message, listen.

>> our country may never recover from secretary mayor cass' dereliction of duty. this is why today i am calling on the secretary to resign. he cannot and must not remain in that position. if secretary mayorkas does not resign, house republicans will investigate every order, every action, and every failure will determine whether we can begin impeachment inquiry. >> steve: as can you see, members of the republican delegation behind him, they had a coddle, a congressional delegation that went down to the border. kevin mccarthy said yesterday, essentially he was really hacked off that mayorkas last week said the border is secure. something brilliant that he has

suggested he is going to do, if he becomes speaker, what he would do is he is going to have hearings on the border actually at the border. obviously there were republicans there yesterday. if they have congressional delegation of the republicans and the democrats both at the border, he said the democrats will be able to see with their own two eyes what they simply have not understood. >> ainsley: well, he said he has the support from jim jordan, judiciary and congressman james comb his or her is oversight, and they support him to investigate the collapse of this border. when the white house was asked about it, this is what they said. >> the question that we have for kevin mccarthy, who is soon-to-be speaker mccarthy, you know, what is -- what is his plan? what is he doing to help this situation that we are seeing? what -- what is his plan? he goes down there and he does a political stunt, like many republicans do, that we have

seen them do, but he is not actually putting forth a plan. a plan to help us, you know, deal with an issue that we are all seeing that y'all are reporting. >> brian: his plan is exactly what was in place that was actually working. you actually pulled back the aid from the countries want to enforce their border. you quickly let everybody know, beginning with mexico that you need to put 20,000 marines back where they were at your southern border and set up weigh stations where people have to apply. the minute they cross into one country to another that's where they apply. on top of that not a matter of building the wall we already paid for. it's electronics that go with it that allow personnel to be funneled elsewhere essentially they will be the blocking that is necessary. keep in mind, that we paid for. all this stuff was in place. the remain in mexico was working, why? the remain in venezuela is working. do you know that they were yelling at our lawmakers from the other side taunting our guys to say you better let us in, we are going to be coming in shortly because title 42 is

going to be lifted? the remain in mexico works they know it because they venezuelas aren't allowed in now. they have got to stay on the other side. >> ainsley: i love it when the white house says what is his plan? when he becomes speaker what's his plan. no, y'all have been in office two years. biden hasn't even gone down there to the border. where is your plan? you have been in office for two years now. you are the one in charge. >> brian: we have seen his plan, it sucks. [laughter] >> steve: the white house says there is no plan. there is a plan. the republicans issued a framework in july but apparently karine jean-pierre was not on that page in the big book of answers. the republicans have a plan. we have seen how well this one is working. and do you know who is horrified by the way that this plan is working? an actual democrat, a senator. mark kelly. >> now he is. >> he is was asked by "the washington post," if democrats have recognized the complexity and frustrations people have and

he said not even close. one of his quotes to the post was when i first got to washington, it didn't take me that long to realize that there are a lot of democrats who don't understand our southern border and a lot of republicans who just want to talk about it. don't necessarily want to do anything about it though. just want to use it politically. so my approach has been to the extent that we could and can to make progress on securing it, but, also, doing it in a way that is in accordance with our ethics and our values, not to demonize people. so what he is saying is the democrats have not seen the problem so if kevin mccarthy drags republicans and democrats down, the democrats will see with their own two eyes what the problem is. >> ainsley: since biden have has taken office, we have seen historic levels of the surge down at the border, in face equal year 2021, 1.7 migrant encounters, the next year 2022, 2.3 million, and then 2023, the year that we are in now, our facial year now, not shaping up to grant much relief with

230,000 encounters in october alone. that's historic. >> brian: this is a mess that is all preventible. we have allowed this to happen -- remember, the first people who close the border were wearing biden-harris t-shirts. >> ainsley: that's right. they said it was all over the news that you could come, in remember? >> brian: it is unbelievable that the president won't go down there and that the press secretary thinks this is a stunt. no, this is desperation. >> steve: it's too bad that she didn't know the republicans didn't have a plan. maybe she would read it this one right here is a good idea. >> brian: slide it into her loose leaf. >> ainsley: go to the website he does have a plan. >> brian: does he have a password? >> steve: she you should put it in her big book of answers. meanwhile aowed on this on thisy before thanksgiving. running out of kids tylenol. crippling number of antibiotics

tom joins us now. good morning, tom. >> thank you so much, ainsley. >> ainsley: thdo you think this will happen? will there be a shutdown. >> based on what we have seen is things aren't trending in the right direction. that's why we are asking congress to step up to the plate here, take action proactively.

we don't need to wait until the last minute and playing a game of chicken, frankly, is just unacceptable. ains aption tom, what's the solution? what do you want? >> it's simple, congress has two different things in front of them. they can enforce the deal, likely in terms of getting the number of votes that are required, likely the deal that was put forward and agreed to by the unions and rail and back in september. or, they can extend the deadline from december 9th, which is what it is currently at. kick the can a little bit. but, at the end of the day, it's time to put this matter to rest. >> ainsley: okay, tom, yesterday we were talking about gas prices and the administration was blaming russia. they have been doing that actually, for months. and now it's thanksgiving dinner. we are seeing prices go up. turkeys more expensive than ever. frozen vegetables. all the things we need to put on the dining room table for thanksgiving, and they are blaming russia for, this too. what's your reaction to that? >> you know, ainsley, there are so many reasons for higher prices right now whether it's war in ukraine. labor shortages.

cybersecurity events. even influenza, bird flu, drought, severe weather. there is so much happening across the supply chain contributing to higher prices that consumers are facing in the grocery store. right now, we have to tackle one supply chain crisis at a time. that means putting, again, the freight rail issue to rest. and then we can go on to the next thing and solve the next crisis. how do we solve this crisis? our prices are through the roof and people on fixed incomes can't afford it? >> there is a number of steps in front of the administration that they can consider. it can be lowering steal and aluminum tariffs, really just taking that cost right out of the, you know, the manufacturers that -- immediately passed along to the consumer. and so that can make an knead difference, also, taking steps to improve supply chain visibility. we have to have data access to just the information around the supply chain to improve efficiency and performance and get that supply chain moving as quick his as possible. >> ainsley: and energy independence. tom, happy thanksgiving to you and your family. >> thanks so much, ainsley you

to destruction with fentanyl flowing across the border and becoming a leading cause of death among americans. congressman james comer is up early on this wednesday before

thanksgiving and joins us from kentucky. congressman, good morning to y you. >> good morning. >> okay, so you sent a letter, hey, you know, there's going to be a new sheriff in town in january when the republicans take over. white house, we would like some answers. do you think you are going to get any? >> i think they are going to have to start complying with our requests now. their excuse thus far has been well, you're in the minority, we don't have to fool with you. if you need anything, get the majority to request it. obviously, carolyn maloney in the majority of the democrats on the oversight committee, this he have had no interest in actually providing any type of oversight over the biden administration. if you just listen to them. biden administration is perfect and everything is going as well as it could possibly go. so, we're reminding the administration we have requested this information. we're asking them if they haven't heard yet, republicans will be in the majority on january 3rd, and we expect them to comply with our request. >> steve: you know, i have a feeling they have heard that

that is going to happen. so they're just battening down the hatches. you know, we know from the first day that the biden administration made policy changes to allow so many people to come in across our southern border. even though mayorkas insists that it's secure. it's pretty easy to get. in however, the byproduct of that is this fentanyl come in. killing people in america every day. and it seems like they are turning a blind eye to it. >> yeah. the most frustrating thing for everyone in law enforcement and the republicans in congress who are actually serious about securing the border is every time we go to the border or every time we talk to a border patrol agent, they say the same thing, that this is a coordinated effort by the mexican drug cartel. they are sending people over who are paying the cartel a fee to cross the border safely into the united states. border patrol then goes and becomes the welcoming committee to the people the cartels have

sent over. while the border patrol is occupied with being the welcoming committee, then the cartel sends their coyotes across the border with all fentanyl. and that's how the fentanyl is getting in all 50 states. and everybody knows what is happening, yet, this administration continues to do nothing. >> steve: well, they say they are doing as much as they can to stop it, congressman. here's the thing. you look at the numbers. and we got the migrant encounters year over year. this year close to a quarter of a million people a year ago much short of that and you go back a couple of years, it was 45,000 as we put the numbers up right there. but, here's the thing. they have not expanded border protection to the point where they have got more people to handle the throngs, the thousands of people because if they added more people, they could process the migrants, and also, stop the fentanyl, they can't do both. instead, they are simply processing the migrants. one of the amazing things is the

border patrol union has suggested that the administration hire temporary workers. have you ever heard of a union to suggest hiring temporary workers? hiring temporary workers to process these people. right now one of the changes that joe biden made and mayorkas was they told the border patrol agents once you apprehend them, you are also going to have to sit in the detention centers, change diapers, provide warm meals, do whatever they need to make them comfortable while the drug cartel is sending coyotes across the border. it's preposterous the changes that joe biden and mayorkas have made. they are basically tying the hands of our border patrol agents. we need a military presence on the border. we need to allow the border patrol agents the freedom to do their job. and we can make a dent in all this fentanyl that's crossing the border real easily within 24 hours. >> steve: sure. and kevin mccarthy said yesterday that if he becomes speaker, they are going to hold hearings on the border, actually at the border. so, democrats who, you know, for

the most part have had their head in the sand when it comes to what is really going on down there, they will be sitting there looking, look at the thousand people that just walked across. how secure is that? >> that's right. and my oversight committee has been to the border two times. we have been in all four states from texas all the way to california. it's -- the people on the border are begging congress for help. law enforcement not just in the border states but all across america are saying can't you do anything about this? so kevin mccarthy said yesterday this is a top priority for house republicans, we're going to have those hearings on the border and we are going to do whatever it takes to get that border secured. deceive steve all right, james comer up early today in kentucky. you are up already. you might as well make a pie or something for tomorrow. >> i have already had a had a pot of coffee so i may do that pie thing. >> steve: good enough. congressman, thank you very much. happy thanksgiving. >> you too. thank you. >> steve: all right. a quarter before the top of the hour carley joins us from bad
