realm continual news network. supposed to be a professional journalist. none i don't know what that was but it was a whole lot of wrong. joe concha, a whole lot of right. have great monday and see you throughout the course of this christmas week. >> ashley: thanks, joe. >> todd, ashley, thank you. >> todd: with that, we go "fox & friends." it starts now. >> alarms are sounding from both sides ever the aisle. title 42 will expire at the southern border on wednesday. >> border patrol agents facility is completely overwhelmed. >> total chaos. >> elon musk is polling twitter users on whether he should step down social media giant. >> more than 14 million users have already voted. 57% say he should go. >> look at it for what it is. both sides of the aisle appreciate what he is trying to do. >> eerie surveillance video shows two of the idaho victims have a conversation just hours

before they were killed. >> police continue to ask the public to be on the lookout for that white hyundai elon that. >> >> terrifying moment for passengers aboard a flight to hawaii yesterday following severe turbulence in the sky. 11 passengers were seriously injured. >> yes! messy and argentina have won the cup ♪ nothing's going to stop us now ♪ na na na na ♪ no no no no. >> brian: they say it's the greatest game ever. and i find it hard to believe supporting event more entertaining more interesting more drama that meant more when we watched argentina beat france yesterday. the coverage was fox.

not just the network here. unbelievable from the play by play to the studio crew and of course the drama on the field with the two best players literally dueling it out 11-11 game which -- outside of the setting in qatar and all the controversy with that. they never should have got it. the whole tournament was phenomenal. four this end like that. for him to hit the penalty kicks in the end. it's just so unbelievable. this is a bad day not to be in argentina. that's what we would see if we were there. that's a whole country celebrating and the last piece to messi's never won a world cup. 35 years ago not only that he stars there. >> steve: it was a messi win and heard around the world. even if you didn't like soccer you loved the human emotion of it. you could see not only on the faces of the winners there in qatar but in argentina the

face of the losers. did you see where emmanuel macron was trying to console the guy who runs the french team and he just wasn't having any of it. >> rachel: my favorite part the guys take their shirts off. i like that. if i had known, i would have watched the game. >> steve: it's in the dessert. it's hot, obviously. >> brian: out of all the results i was expecting it wasn't that. if i had a tattoo and all those boxes i would take it off. i blow my nose with my shirt. the biggest story that no one is talking about is messi could be in miami playing for david beckham. he played so good it might be hard for him to do it now. people thought this would be his last tournament and argentina may or may not win. call it quits. looks so good it might be hard. can you imagine him in miami? >> tom brady of somer. >> be like if tom brady wanted to play football in argentina. >> steve: he might.

>> rachel: i'm fine with both of them taking their shirts off. >> steve: congratulations argentina. don't cry for argentina. >> brian: not anymore. >> rachel: not anymore. >> steve: don't cry for me. >> rachel: don't get me started because i will begin issue in it. we will move to this, which is a crisis going on in our own country. >> steve: that's something to cry about. wrach rach it is something to cry about as title 42 is set to end in two days in migrant shelters in texas are already overflowing. >> steve: look at those pictures from a congressman and lawmakers predicting total chaos when the order is lifted less than 48 hours. >> brian: amount election andrea hough is live to set the table. >> this is a major crisis of morale as well. border patrol agents struggling to essentially stop rising floodwaters and now bracing for what could be a tsunami. you saw that video there we will look at it again. it shows how overwhelmed the processing center in el paso is.

we are told at the time around 4600 migrants from in federal custody there. that's almost five times the safe capacity at that location. congressman from texas, tony gonzales,side one who shot the video. one day before el paso's mayor and democrat declared a state of emergency in that city. >> it is a dire situation in el paso. as you know, the city declared a state of emergency. this is something you do when there is a hurricane, a fire, an earthquake. what is happening is it's a hurricane of migrants. and everyone is impacted. >> and the situation is about to deepen. on friday a d.c. circuit of appeals ruled not to keep title 42 in place. the trump era policy restricted the number of migrants able to cross the border during the pandemic into the united states and stay here. it's poised to expire on wednesday. democratic senator admitted the influx is coming because the republicans are the one without a plan. >> all the republican rhetoric about chaos at the border.

open borders, et cetera. number one, they have yet to come forward with a plan of how to better handle the scenario. number two, they have not been willing to commit the additional resources that our departments and agencies say they need to handle this big influx. >> let's talk about the influx. title 4 # expires # thousand people are expected to enter into the u.s. per day. the 420,000 a month over 5 million a year. consider, this half of u.s. states have a population less than 5 million, so that is five delaware as year. here is democratic congresswoman veronica escobar. >> my republican colleagues who love to parachute into my community and do their photo ops at the border. but i have spoken to migrants and i have been speaking to migrants who arrive at our nation's front door here in el paso for decades. i have been talking to them. as recently as a couple of weeks ago. >> plus we know president biden

has parachuted flown, visited. he will host the president of ecuador and migration is among the topics that they're expected to discuss today, guys. >> steve: indeed. alexandria, thank you very much. by the way, the president has never been to the border and now we know why. yesterday on one of these sunday chat shows, white house adviser kisha lance bottom says joe has not gone because when the president goes place, it's very disruptive and, you know, resources are diverted when potus makes a visit. news flash. things are already disrupted down there to a gigantic extent. elon musk was tweeting as ceo of twitter at least for the next two hours. we will talk about that in a minute. he tweeted as the bill melugin yesterday. and he said why does so few people report about the millions of people crossing the border? elon, that's a great question. that is an invasion we are looking at. how many people are reporting on

it other than fox? not many. >> brian: yesterday was different. yesterday every network did it. cnn did it, abc this week with george stephanopoulos was with martha raddatz did it. face the nation led with it. now you can't avoid it because of this. thank goodness that congressman gonzalez and people in that center got him that video who show how bad things are on the inside. we see how bad things are on the outside. >> steve: he took the video. >> brian: areas that usually have 100 people have 600 people. please tell me if donald trump was president right now, they would be talking about how he doesn't like hispanic children and he treats people as if they are trash and' that we don't care about them we finance them. no. this message was from this administration, come one, come all. the first group had biden-harris t-shirts on them. they all know it. what is so interesting is, everyone got facts. the talking points were going to be hey, say republicans are

making everything bad because they bring up the border is open. so you allow everybody to come. you don't pressure any countries to keep their people there, you don't pressure, mexico to bolster their southern border. and when people stream, in you blame repub republican for point out? that's insane. >> rachel: governor greg abbott is saying when they lift title 42 on wednesday, expect chaos. listen. >> if the courts do not intervene and put a halt to the removal of title 42, it will be total chaos. whether it's covid or some other issue. when you have people coming across the globe without knowing at all what their health status is. that almost, by definition, is a public health risk. there is every reason to keep that in place. >> rachel: can i say what i think they think the problem is? the democrats are saying -- the republicans don't have a plan. yeah, the republicans had a plan. the border had never been more secure than under donald trump. then they lifted the remain in

mexico policy. now they are going to lift title 42. they say the answer is resources. republicans don't want to get us resources. this is what the democrats think the problem is the democrats do not believe that what you are seeing on your screen is the problem. what they believe the problem is if they come too quickly he can't just process and disperse them quickly enough so you don't see it. so when you said, brian, yeah, the media is covering it this weekend. the reason is because they are coming so quick, they can't process them fast enough. and this is the problem they had with the del rio bridge. this is the new del rio bridge. it's not that theme are coming illegally for the democrats that's the problem. how can we get enough money and resources to process them so you don't see what's happening. >> brian: that's where the resources are. the resources are to life better for the illegal immigrants who come here. take look at your paycheck. ask yourself when you watch that money go for taxes and you realize it's not going to the american people, billions are going to people from other

countries, who say this is my time to come to america. we have a big heart. we have huge foundations. we have great humanitarian program. our tax dollars housing an entire nation. we are building up stadiums every week of people that do not belong here who say wouldn't it be a good time to relocate to america? i get a fresh pair of nikes, a bus ride everywhere. free healthcare if i'm in california. why wouldn't i come? >> steve: the administration is now asking congress for an additional $3 billion to help alleviate the problem. here in new york city, they are asking for $1 billion and on the cover of the "new york post," we were just looking right here. the cover says title, as in title 42. tidal wave alarm. and what they are talking about is they want a billion dollars just for new york city. keep in mind el paso gets essentially the number of people that new york city migrants has in a week. they get it every day in el

paso. el paso just wanted 10 million. new york wants a billion dollars. and they are terrified of the mayor says i'm not getting any help from the governor. i'm not getting any help from the president. there are 10 to 15 buses on their way to new york city at this hour. they are going to download all those people and the new york is saying, look, we need a billion dollars, mr. president. and you are not being helpful. >> rachel: people dealing it on the front lines our our border patrol. this year 14 border patrol agents committed suicide. they feel totally demoralized and abandoned. the president refuses to come and listen to them and hear what they had to say. >> steve: it would be disruptive. >> rachel: it would be did disruptive. brandon judd the national border patrol council president says we feel completely and totalsly defeated. we can go to any station right now and there is not a whole lot of talk among agents. used to be lot of can a rad derry. people happy doing the job. now, there just nothing.

>> brian: over the weekend, in mcallen, texas my radio station and literally seven miles from the border. they said thank goodness that fox is covering this because we feel totally abandoned, number one. number two is, whatever block you go down, you will see pieces of the paid for border fence laying in open fields. >> rachel: rusting. >> brian: you can't keep so much of it. we just watched. they said you will go to different cafes and restaurants and you see just people crossing the rio grande one after another. others being chased. others -- just one antidote. people abandoning their farms and businesses they have been overwhelmed and feel totally abandoned. i don't know how anybody in a border community could possibly look at two administrations and say this is a problem across parties. it really isn't. they said that kevin mccarthy brought lawmakers down there for political reasons? no, he is trying to highlight it to say how horrific it is. would you rather him ignore it

and just roll video. >> rachel: you wouldn't have those photos by the way from representative gonzalez if he wasn't a member of congress. media is not allowed in there because he is a member of congress, and he probably snuck a phone in or maybe -- because they try to tell the members of congress. >> steve: please don't take pictures. >> rachel: don't take their pictures and respect their policy. when it really means don't show the american people what's goings on. >> brian: democrats are putting forward it's the republicans who highlight open borders that are showing people in central and south america to come here. every news for you, there is 150 countries coming through including ukrainian, including a whole bunch of russians there are people coming from the middle east who come one, come all. and venezuela and cuba are people coming here because they are just horrible and nicaragua. horrible governments running from repressive regimes. >> you would think the administration would say hold the phone we're going to do something. >> joe manchin there.

>> i just thought of it. given the fact that this is kind of a holiday week, and they can kind of sweep fund the rug? they could actually hit the fan. stay tuned. >> brian: joe manchin says he thinks biden will ask for a title 42 exdeposition. >> steve: that's one way to do it. >> rachel: well, we are going to move on with other headlines still ahead. dropped like a roller coaster. horrified hawaiian airline passengers describe severe turbulence in the sky. >> steve: illuminated this is a moment ago. should he stay or go. elon musk is asking twitter users in a new poll if he should step down as his role as chief twit. the latest results not good news for elon or is it good news? and speaking of good news, look who is on this monday telecast. watching monday's number one cable morning news show, "fox & friends." ♪ ♪

>> todd: todd piro not high but has the results. twitter it should step down after posting a surprising poll last night. pop them up on your screen 57.5% more than that voting against musk in the top spot following a tumult yuts week on the platform. several journalists. musk also taken after a new policy banning promotion of other social media sites. a move that was heavily criticized. that policy quickly reversed some u.s. just journalists locked othe of their accounts unclear if he does step aside say nothing one wants the job who can actually keep twitter alive. there is no successor so i guess there goes snoop. former head of trust and safety yoel roth expressing hesitation about correspondence from the fbi. will matt tiberiasy revealing that the bureau sent twitter a series of questions by what ways

and measures do you see official propaganda actors as less ache t rive than other groups on your platform and how do you differentiate official propaganda actors from foreign state actors? that list includes a list of public references including an article from the "wall street journal." in an email to his staff in response, roth says i'm frankly perplexed by the request here which seem more like something we get from a congressional committee than the bureau. i'm not particularly comfortable with the bureau and by extension the intel community demanding written answers here. that round of twitter files revealing's twitter relationship with the fbi to that of a dog and his master. steve, rachel, and brian, back to you. >> steve: thank you very much. speaking of snoop dogg funny replace elon musk. a research scientist lex freidman offered to run twitter for a bit he said. elon tweeted to him you must like a lot of pain. one catch you have to invest

your life savings into twitter and faster lane of bankruptcy since may you still want it? he said yes. i think -- so the poll is in. 57% atwitter users said he should stone down. >> i think he is going to step down. i think ultimately this was all part of his plan. i think, you know, when you are going to essentially rebuild a company, and there's a lot of pain involved, with what he did, firing half the staff changing a bunch of the rules. he did the dirty work. now he can bring in somebody else to run the company the way elon musk wants it run. keep in mind, he still owns the company. >> rachel: i know who wants the job. the fbi, the dnc. appears, they are already working there. the are twitter was a super pac for the dnc. the way it was being run and censored things and the working with the fbi whether it was covid or you know, hunter biden's laptop, this was a propaganda tool of those in

power. '. >> brian: rachel, i don't think there is any question about that. how about they got to the point where even twitter was uncomfortable with the amount of pressure and requests and type of pressure they are getting from the fbi. even twitter wasn't comfortable, which made me think on sunday now i think i understand why dorsey was saying to elon musk why don't you buy it? i can't deal with it. even though he removed himself at ceo. i'm looking at what is happening here it's crazy. the fbi in bed with -- went from we got to look out for terrorists and child molesters to look out for political rhetoric or things that we deem to be too pro-trump centric or too now i guess maga. it was getting so left wing that even bitter was saying we can't run our own company without our own governor. that to me is very telling. the other thing is pretty telling and also alarm something what jonathan turley wrote about. he pointed out that adam schiff

and sheldon whitehouse wrote a letter to meta essentially saying don't do to meta, facebook, what's going on with twitter or else you are going to be investigated and if you don't like the regulations now, you are really going to hate it when you get. in wait a second, you are about to enter the minority. how dare you start being thuggish with another social media company who obviously, with their zucker bucks put their hand on the scale in the last election. he very few went to republicans. a ton went to democrats in key cities and districts. elvis chan and company, we are going to get to know them as well as we did lisa page and andy mccabe and others. i'm wondering what chris wray knew in washington and how much they were just free-lancing between the former fbi on the west coast working at twitter and the current fbi people. how much was that and how much chris wray saying to himself i had no idea about this. >> rachel: election meddling on

twitter definitely going on at facebook and google, this is what you saw at twitter these twitter files are the canary in the coal mine. this is a much bigger operation and so ironic that they use these 08 fbi agents working twitter supposedly because they were going to get rid of election interference, they wanted to deal with that and they ended up meddling in our elections. >> steve: all of the latest stuff from matt taibbi has to do with foreign actors. people and this task force was started back in 2017 because of what happened. >> brian: you think only with foreign actors? come on, are you kidding? foreign actor? a bunch of foreigners here. >> rachel: by the way, it wasn't just the fbi was working with twitter, but there were exfbi agents employed. >> brian: glide pat. >> twitter said they had not seen much activity from official propaganda actors meaning places

like china and iran and russia and stuff like that. and essentially then what the fbi did was really, can you look into that? and they did. anyway there, will be an investigation. and we will figure out what happened. >> brian: it's going to show the fbi has got some rogue actors or coming from washington. that's going to be the thing that we are going to find out hopefully over the next two years if the republicans could ever pick a speaker. >> rachel: as charlie kirk said elon musk bought a dnc super pac. >> brian: absolutely. >> steve: one final thing, tesla shares up 5% or 6% in premarket. if he leaves the company as the top guy, wall street loves it because they feel like tesla has been discounted for the most party. tesla has slumped 60% because they felt like mr. musk distracted. anyway. we will see how that all shakes out. the market opens three hours and 10 seconds from right now. meanwhile, coming up. >> a major winter storm could

>> welcome back to "fox & friends." the year is coming to an end. >> but the migrant surge is not. with just two days until title 42 expires. expected border crossings could surge to over 5 million per year. the city of el paso declaring a state of emergency as property owners are panicking. reaching deals to resume border wall construction in anticipation. joining us now is former el paso u.s. marshal and deputy chief of the el paso police department robert el monte. thank you so much for joining us this morning. what do you expect to happen starting on wednesday when title 42 is lifted? >> right, you know, prior to wednesday and now we have seen the flood gates open and wednesday the sea the dam break and it really hits home because el paso is my hometown. i spent 25 years there with the police department. born and raised there. i grew up 4 blocks from the

border. el paso is a compassionate city there is only so much to take. for the mayor to key clair an emergency. you know it's really bad. so, what i don't understand is why we are not seeing more response from the white house, washington, d.c. for example, feerges i tho thought they were supposed to handle emergencies and disasters. that's where we are at right now. they need to be down there providing housing for these migrants and taking care of them and food and things of that nature the burden is going to be placed on the city. it's just el paso is just overwhelmed. and i'm planning to be in el paso on wednesday to get a firsthand look at what's going on out there. >> rachel: you know, robert, you are saying what many democrats are saying, frankly, is that they need more resources. what about securing the border so this doesn't happen? what about signaling that you are going to lift title 42 so we don't have this surge? it doesn't make any sense to me. i will ask you this as well, robert.

i was down at the border. what i saw was that they really wanted to quickly process people so you wouldn't get these bottlenecks. they could disperse the illegal immigrants through the country and the media wouldn't call attention. iconfused as to why they are allowing title 42 to be lifted because you are going it see what you see here bottleneck accumulation of inhumanity and inhumane conditions for them. >> you are absolutely right. i think all of america is confused. because it seems like the answer would be to stop the bleeding. we're not stopping the bleeding. and until you stop the bleeding, things aren't going to improve. it's just going to be getting worse and worse day after day. so, i'm like you. i don't understand why they don't stop the bleeding. that needs to happen first. there is no plan from i will say

republicans, democrats to deal with the immigration problem. it's just handling it as it happens. it is very unfortunate but, it's really a bad situation. again, i want to reiterate. this is not a bad situation just for the border. it's a bad situation for the entire united states. >> rachel: amen to that. robert, i really appreciate you sounding the alarm on what clearly people in el paso but as you so rightly point out, across the country are going to be facing or facing now and are going to be facing even more of come wednesday. robert, thanks for joining us, merry christmas. >> thank you. merry christmas. >> rachel: coming up, did you wait for the last minute to christmas shop again? well skip bedell is here to help and how you can get these heated stadium seats to keep warm this winter. stay with us. ♪ will be ♪ a very special christmas for me ♪
