♪ this is how we work now ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪. eric: president bite on air force one heading till el paso, texas. it is this for border visit since he took office. border officials and democrats have been begging him to make the trip. get a firsthand look at the crisis on the southern border. it has been so bad el paso officials, get this, they have been clearing migrant camps from city sidewalks even before the president announces visit. that really gives him the truth

about the ongoing influx? hello everyone welcome to "fox news live" i am eric shawn, hi arthel. arthel: hi eric, hello everyone i am arthel neville. welcome aboard a state official said the presence loose immigration policy is behind this chaos by customs and border protection sources telling us that just this fiscal year, which started october 1, there were more than 718,000 migrant encounters. el paso is the busiest sector by far. in fact here's governor greg abbott earlier today on the president's visit. >> this visit, it's about two years too late and about $20 billion short of what needs to be done. all is he is going to do down there is rearrange the chairs on the deck of the titanic. arthel: former u.s. border patrol chief ron joins us and what first or about live fox team coverage where biden will head next for a summit with

north american leaders, and el paso as the city prepares for the president's arrival. and griff jenkins and another migrant hotspot, eagle pass, texas. first were going to start lucas tomlinson he is alive at the white house, lucas. >> good afternoon arthel but governor abbott went on to say president biden never reached out personally to invite him to join the president on his visit to el paso. instead he said his staff last night received a quote random e-mail inviting him to meet air force ones when it lands in el paso. as erica mentioned, air force one and now in the air in route to el paso this morning. present by leaving his home in delaware aboard marine one, before boarding air force one for it early on abc's dhs secretary defended the administration's new parole policy announced late last week giving up to 30,000 people a way to enter the country away to enter legally and work for two years.

>> we want individuals who qualify for relief under our laws to come to the united states in a safe and orderly way. and that is why we are building lawful pathways. so people do not have to place their lives and their life savings in the hands of ruthless smugglers. >> congressman jim jordan appeared early on "fox news sunday" was shannon bream. >> joe biden refused to visit the border when they controlled all of government to talk about any type of solution right now they have allowed a situation where we no longer have a border. we are certainly willing to work to do the policies that actually will give us a border. the ones we had under president trump. it does not sin like the democrats want to put back in place the very things that actually were effective in securing our southern border. >> some democrats agree more needs to be done on the board and with immigration for they stress they will use compassion to do it. >> there is no doubt there is a problem at the border. president biden recognizes it. it is common sense.

we need to secure the border but also have the humanity. >> a new republican majority in the house and saying he has every intention to run for reelection in 2024 president biden make the border an issue in his administration, arthel. so you are right lucas tomlinson there at the white house, thank you lucas. >> thanks lucas and arthel by the number of migrants continues to bid a record level. some are calling for perhaps changing amnesty laws to try to blunt the impact of the influx we have seen. in fact customs and border protection's cell fox news they have had more than 718,000 total migrant encounters since the fiscal year began just on october 1 were that's roughly 200,000 more the same period last year. griffin jenkins is live on the border and eagle pass, texas to break down all these numbers as this inflow continues, a graph.

>> it sure does continue, eric. these numbers are stunning but first let me just take you up to our fox drone in the sky show you here in eagle pass which has been one of the ground zeros for migrants crossings. you can see the bridge going in a cross into mexico. which is where they will be sending some of the migrants back under new proposed rules they would send nicaraguans, cubans, patients back as well as venezuelans under title 42. where the first network to break those back in october when they did it with venezuelans. you can see also the shot, eric, the shipping containers topped with razor wire all along the rio grande here in eagle pass. which was erected by governor greg abbott and the texas dps when they stood up operation lone star to try to slow the slow down. now, let's go back to those numbers. these are really quite stunning. the first 100 days of this fiscal year, which began on

october 1, you got 718,000 in 62 total encounters in the southwest border of which just over 198,000 were title 42 expelled. that means more than half a million or release into the u.s. let's go specifically just to the el paso sector which arthel pointed out is the busiest in the nation right now. they have got nearly 170,000 encounters in that sector alone picked up 222% this fiscal year. that bottom number there, eric more than 78000 known got a ways, meaning border patrol, customs officials saw them but did not bring them into custody. speaking of gato oysters video we can show your shot by texas dps lieutenant colonel rivera's over and the leader rio grande pursuing migrants who want to evade being apprehended. do not know where they're from, where they're going or why they are here. but they do not want to be caught. texas dps's been doing this since the spring of 2021. that is why you've got the former border patrol chief

rodney scott weighing in on all of this and had this to say, take a listen. cooks also what they referred to as i got a ways. that's just what they saw. that is where the real threats are put those are people who pay the cartel ask her to wait and be in the second wave. those are the huge threats. >> it is not just officials like rodney scott. but all the border patrol officials will tell you they help the president's visit will not only focus on the humanitarian crisis of these migrants we have seen sleeping in the streets of el paso, but also the problem of searching numbers of gato ways and the smuggling and the drugs coming across because the cartel's hold on border behind me, eric. eric: 's got to see you can't just be in a processing center or do some handshakes with local officials but he has got to see all of that stuff you just described firsthand and we will see if that does happen. griff, thank you. arthel. >> right and griff even before

president biden announces first border visit as a president, law enforcement teens had begun cleaning up the migrant camps lighting el paso streets and sidewalks. arresting those who had captured by border patrol this is frustrating for some of the current and former city officials say they want the president to see the full scale of the chaos el paso deals with every single day. >> we had something happen and el paso that was absolutely unprecedented and it happened under president joe biden's watch. we are very happy answered that call but again very disappointed they cleaned it all up as if nothing ever happened here. text mark meredith is alive in el paso, texas with mark, mark. >> arthel, good afternoon pay president biden's visit here to el paso's going to be brief. i would be on the ground for a couple of hours. the white house as he will be made of federal, state and local officials on the ground. people who know firsthand some of the challenges that are

presented because of the immigration backlog. even before the presence visit on saturday we saw a protest in downtown el paso with pro- migrant groups take into the streets letting people know about some of the challenges asylum-seekers are facing for the group telling reporters that most of the people in el paso waiting are simply there as they are trying to find a better future for their families. for months el paso officials have struggled to handle the surge of migrants in their city. last month el paso mayor even declared a state of emergency over concerns expected end of title 42 would mean even more people would flood into el paso. however, she mentioned this week we saw the city actually shut down one of their emergency shelters. some say it's an attempt to pretty much cleaned up, make things look better ahead of the president's visit for the border patrol union tweeting el paso being cleaned up as if nothing unusual ever happened there. just in time for biden to visit the border. we suggest he lands in des moines, iowa and telling him it is el paso he will never know

the difference. now tomorrow following the president's visit a bipartisan group of senators are going to be on the ground in el paso to see firsthand where things stand for this a delegation led by texas senator john cornyn as well as arizona new independent senator pierson sentiment late in the delegate delegation but we do not know if the president's going to make any formal remarks while he is here where there's going to be a small press bull joining him. making two stops one to the point of entry there and also one to some of the nonprofit sediment helping on the ground in el paso. the cameras are going to be along with him for part of his visits but we are hoping to see maybe it will pick up a little bit of what he has a say get his reaction to where things stand for but arthel, no doubt this is only a short visit on the southern border. arthel: yes it's kind of like cleaning up for the housekeeper what they are doing there, no, let them see everything in its full scope it all right mark meredith live in el paso, thank you, eric. eric: after he visits el paso the president will be off to mexico city but that is where he'll be meeting mexican counterpart presidents and

canadian prime minister justin trudeau. they'll be holding a two date north american summit. the three leaders will talk immigration, drug trafficking as well as climate change. but you know the top of the agenda of the migrant crisis shows no signs of slowing. jacqui heinrich is live in mexico city. height jacqui. >> hey eric, the focus of this meeting is not just going to be controlling immigration. but also stemming the flow of sentinel across the u.s. border. and ahead of the president's visit, mexican authorities arrested el chapo's son. and now the cartels have declared war on the mexican government. more than 30 people have been killed and shootouts with the military. even attempting to shoot down military and civilian aircraft, terrorizing to prevent his transfer here to mexico city. the arrest has been described by mexican authorities as a gift to biden.

>> i was real suspicious the timing of that arrest. they say they meant watching him for years it's like give me a break, why didn't you take them down earlier? what took so long? mexico made a big, big mistake when they let them by the first time basically show who's in charge of mexico, the cartels are. >> it's also been interpreted as a subtle message from mexican authorities to the u.s. president that mexico is in control of its security situation. and it president lopez hugs and not bullet strategy has its reasoning. republicans in congress see this is a clear sign the u.s. needs to support mexico in its fight against the cartels. >> i am not talking about u.s. troops, but i am talking about cyber, drones, intelligence assets, naval assets. >> they are fighting the entire mexican army to a standstill right now. we need to support them with our military assets and i don't authorize that.

>> is being held in a high security federal prison, just about 35 miles away from here. his extradition to the u.s. has been posited by a federal judge. so what happens next with this dress? it's really looming large over the tone of this visit, eric. eric: all right jacqui in mexico city. arthel: we are going to bring in ron chiefdom equity and former acting ice director. so, ron, president biden is going to move border patrol officials, el paso residents and attending i understand a migrant facility he'll talk to some migrants potentially during this trip. will this a trio of testimonials provide mr. biden the most searing sample of this border crisis? >> well, thank you arthel. he has to talk to career officials who know how to solve this problem. finally he is making a trip to the border. the agenda seems very light to

me as it relates to be inside the port of entry. he needs to go to the line the parties to talk to career officials who know how to solve this problem. anyone that has been the border patrol for five minutes knows this is a self-inflicted crisis, one they refused to call crisis. he went to years to figure out what happened at the border after he made the worst choices ever as it relates to border security and policy about people coming across that border illegally. so i'm glad he's taken the time to look at this issue. we are going to get some other media interest in what's going on at the border parties going to call to account for the mistakes that haven't made along the southwest border pretty talk about the influence of the cartels in mexico, no one has been a better economic boom for the cartels in this president. he had hated inherited 40 year lows the southwest border. that meant more seizures, more agents on patrol, or stopping of drugs. but not on this worst search ever with more agents that are

working on getting people in the system and processing is that of patrolling the border. arthel: and because of the cartels and the sentinel that is flowing into the streets and killing our kids, because of the tsunami of humanity that's flowing across our border without complete processing, and now president biden is going to see it, is going to smell it get it up close taste of the border. do you think this time will be different? >> we will see. is he going to go down there and apologized to the communities for the burdens they now have to have? this is 2023 in america, a pass is not some far-off land or people are sleeping in the streets where they there? they are there because this guy made the worst choices possible on what were going to run the pulse of the border. is he going to apologize to the border patrol agents? is he going to thank them and their families from the stress of inputs or of the last two years in the pandemic before that? is he going to thank them both

for what they are doing? is he going to ask them how to fix this problem is he going to take their advice about what to do to make this go away? you have no el paso is great i was in el paso i believe it last may it's a wonderful city. right now let's take a look at present biden's $5.8 trillion budget request for fiscal year 2023. got up at some stats up for you. 56.7 billion for dhs department of homeland security. 1.4 billion for justice department's immigration courts. for u.s. eis u.s. citizen and immigration as you well know, 904 million out of which 765 million will be allocated specifically for caseload and backlog reduction for so i ask you, ron, when present biden returns to washington with fresh eyes from his border visit and for mexico city, will congress now have a legitimate reason or any reason to decline president

biden's border funding request? >> what is going to be in that request question mccue allied some very specific things for it encrypts reporting previously couple minutes go talk to about 700,000 people have crossed the border illegally been counted since the beginning of the fiscal year october 1. but nearly half a million of those folks are released in the united states. if you do not stop a policy that encourages and enhances and incentivizes people to come to that border you're not going to get control of it. this is not just a resource problem for them got to work on the policy. congress aptly has a role here but that money needs to be conditional on us trying to secure the border. arthel: street got to start summer present biden's administration have asked for funding before to try and stop in stem the flow if you will. but listen, hopefully this does not continue to be a political game of football here. because we as americans know the border has to be under control and we do not want functional flowing onto the streets killing our kids pizza ron, i'll be

checking back with you for your eyes and ears there on the ground as you have resources because you used to be there. we will check back with you ron, thank you very much. >> thank you arthel. arthel: a reminder eric and i was special expanded coverage of president biden's visit to the border today that's going to start at 3:00 p.m. eastern stay right here with us for that special coverage, eric. eric: that we will border crisis to the drug crisis and fentanyl that is brought over so often by the cartels. police and new jersey say an art teacher actually collapsed in front of his middle school students after that teacher overdosed on sentinel. the teacher now facing charges for it happen november in westfield, new jersey. police said that he was narcan to revive that teacher frank thompson. please announce this weekend he's facing possible possession and child welfare endangerment charges after they say they

found fentanyl in the classrooms closet, arthel. >> unbelievable. switching back over to politics till after the grueling speaker vote we went through, the house meets again tomorrow gambling in bite speaker mccarthy on the agenda house rules the budget, the border. what will the gop get done? we'll take a look at what is had with freshman congressman anthony of new york and ask him what is job number one? ,000 per employee. all it takes is eight minutes to get started. then work with professionals to assist your business with its forms and submit the application. go to getrefunds.com to learn more. i brought in ensure max protein with 30 grams of protein. those who tried me felt more energy in just two weeks. uhhhh... here, i'll take that.

arthel: it took 15 attempts but speaker kevin mccarthy has finally officially been sworn in. several gop holdouts clear his path to the gavel late friday night after historic again 15 ballots. now the 118th congress reconvenes tomorrow. lawmakers are looking to make up for lost time. not sure how they're going to do that. alexandria hoff is here live in washington with more. >> first up for republicans is passing the new rules package for a voting on that is going to take place tomorrow. from kent congressman tony gonzalez already stated he will not be supporting it.

this is due to concessions in the house speaker kevin mccarthy paid mick mccarthy won the intense internal battle for the position what all the way through early saturday giving into key demands freedom caucus members rate congressman jim jordan protects the rules package will be passed and the infighting did not produce a fracture. >> kevin mccarthy got the same number of votes speaker pelosi got last time pressured to say majority number 222 that we have this time. so sometimes it's messy. i would argue that's exactly how the founders intended it. >> mccarthy won the speakership he did not went over his party entirely, six house republicans voted present rather than gastric kentucky congressman andy barr said the party has come up stronger for it. hakeem jeffries does not buy that. >> we have proven to ourselves we can come together. we can set aside our differences and ultimately compromise to be an effective majority.

>> general concern is the dysfunction that was historic, that we saw this week is not at an end it's just the beginning. >> among the agreements mccarthy made with freedom caucus members was to cut budget spending but some republicans are concerned with how this could impact military funding. does not see this as a bad thing. >> there are places i may actually agree with republicans on defense cuts. i think it is absurd we are going to have almost 1 trillion-dollar defense budget. if they are going to look at that and make certain cuts then let's have that conversation. >> here's a harder discussion for democrats and republican run congress is expected to launch in short order a slew of promised investigations into areas such as a justice department, the southern border, covid-19 with afghanistan withdrawal and the business dealings of hunter biden, ar arthel. >> so we will see if it will be only investigation or some legislation thrown in there as well but alexandria hoff, thank

you, eric for. >> arthel, what else can expect when the house gets to work? let's bring in republican congressman anthony d'esposito. he represents a fourth district which is new york city on long island. congressman welcome to your new office you are a freshman. >> good morning how are you, thanks for having me. >> you back speaker mccarthy from the get go for it were the struggles and the fights of the tension the late nights finally worth it? >> absolutely bright listen, i am a new york city detective those last 15 rounds were no problem for me. eric: what is the first on your agenda? >> well, think the focus right now is we need to remain unified. we came together after the four days to make sure speaker mccarthy receive the gavel. now we need to focus on especially here in new york and on long island weren't that majority was delivered from, we need to focus on the things we promise during the campaign. that is making sure that we have

an economy that is strong. that we have a country that we keep safe. and we want to be unified and that's what's really most important heading into the next week. >> are you concerned the speaker gave up too much to the freedom caucus? >> i am not. listen, kevin mccarthy is a true leader. as we have seen over the last week he is one that is resilience. i think he has the respect of our entire caucus. and i know that moving forward we will work together prevail the best interest of this nation and the american people at hand. that is exactly what we're going to focus on. eric: one of the concerns is dealing with the debt ceiling. certainly with defense spending that could potentially be a cut about $75 billion if the freedom caucus has its way. tell us about that and your concerns if you have any about the spending per expression after the $1.7 trillion democrat passed bill. >> listen, absolutely pretty think most of us campaigned on the fact that spending under the biden administration has been

obscene. that's what we're going to focus on. i have no doubt under the leadership of kevin mccarthy we are going to work together. just as we did over the last week we are going to compromise to make sure we can deliver for the american people. we are going to come out stronger and that's really what is most important. we need to focus on working together in a bipartisan fashion to deliver the american people here in new york and here on long island it is up moderate community. we want to make sure, i know i speak for my colleagues here on long island we are going to work do whatever we have to do in order to deliver for the people of long island. >> talk about bipartisanship. you think some democrats really will work with you? do you think the other side of the aisle are there some more moderate democrats who would actually grasp hands with republicans? >> i do, i am confident. think there are some moderate republicans that work with the democrats. the end of the daily to focus where we come from and what we'd

needed lynn for the communities we represent. and like i said, i will speak for myself and the fourth congressional district is a seat that was in democrat hands for 25 years. the people of this district have reached and look for a change. electing a republican. i will do whatever i can i work with whoever i have to to deliver it for the people that sent me here. that is all the residents of the fourth congressional district regardless of what party you are from. i am looking to work across town to ever have to do to make sure again i deliver for the people who sent me here. i am their voice and i'm going to be that voice loud and clear. eric: and finally you've had quite a journey. you are on the of new york, nypd detective but thank you for your service to new york's finest. the fire department, what has that been like? are you going to bring some of your street sense of the aisle in the carpeted floor at the house chamber? what has this journey been like to go from the streets of new york city to the halls of congress? >> over the last week it seemed

like i was back on the streets. all joking aside, listen i have always said being a member of the newark city police department as a former chief of the honor fire department. especially during my service and law enforcement you get to work with people each and every day that from different economic backgrounds. different walks of life, certainly different political ideologies. you get out of the car each and every day to live out your oath to protect and serve to make the committee say for the represent britt i'm going to the same in congress i will work with anyone from anywhere regardless of where they are from, of what they believe in, what we are at right now is to deliver for the american people but i made promises during this campaign and i'll do everything that i have to do to deliver on them. divert congressman anthony d'esposito back on the vehicle's year one than the previous month thank you for coming fox news channel. >> thank you for so much. so far course will contain our coverage of can expect from the

eric: more is become a clear and the horrible case in idaho. detective still going to the evidence from the crime scene. it's where the fort university of ido students were brutally stabbed to death in november. on friday they removed two of

the mattresses that appear to have numerous and dark stains on them which could be blood. the suspect in the horrible gruesome killings, he remains behind bars until his next court date that will be on thursday. we may learn a lot more about this than for jonathan hunt is a life in moscow, idaho with the very latest on this unfolding horrible case, jonathan. >> eric, good morning to you for moscow, idaho. this has behind me were the murders took place, it remains a scene and will remain so for some time to come. obviously as investigators continue to go through the house to gather evidence. and of course a defensive team is allowed to come and take a look at the scene where brian kohberger allegedly slaughtered those fort university of idaho students as you mentioned. investigators just on friday afternoon took away mattresses and other boxes of evidence from

this house as they continue to build their case against kohberger peart you know of course on the affidavit they found a dna match they say and forensic experts talking to fox say investigators are likely to find a lot more dna evidence, listen here. >> we are talking about any kind of touch dna like skin cells that are sloughing off. you also have hair transfer, fiber transfer beat all these things are going through. here is key, if he is a blood on him he's going to contact the services he's walking on touching. powerful evidence. >> now, 28-year-old bryan kohberger would back in court on thursday. that is just a status hearing. we are unlikely to get a lot more evidence presented then. of course there is a gag order from the judge on everybody involved in this case. it is quite likely we will not

hear a lot more in fact until this goes to trial. in the meantime, eric, university of idaho students are coming back for the spring semester this week for many of them it will literally be since the days immediately after the murders of those for students. at that point of course a killer was on the loose. it will be an emotional return for a lot of university of idaho students, this week. >> an amazing law enforcement jonathan thank you throughout today tonight our nancy grace the idaho murders. is tonight at 10:00 p.m. eastern right here on the fox news channel and if you cannot catch it on her streaming service fox nation investigators a shocking

school shooting with multiple people injured. police reiterated that was not the case in this incident. >> this a kurt in a classroom. it was isolated for this was not in the situation where we had a student going up or any other individuals going up and down the halls actually firing in a long shooting incident. it was in a classroom. >> if unclear how the six job gained access to a loaded gun or what exactly led up to the shooting for the police did say some sort of altercation took place, take a listen. >> the altercation was between a 6-year-old, the student who had the firearm and the teacher and then around it was fired for it like i said she suffered a gunshot wound has been transported to the hospital. that's where our thoughts and prayers are at right now. >> police state this was not an accidental shooting for the disturbing incident renewing calls to do something about gun violence. >> just do something. we have got a new governor now.

let's do something let's change it pretty got a beautiful country you've got beautiful people. but what's the problem? guns. >> now, legally this is obviously not a typical case. we are dealing with an alleged shooter that is six years old pretties too young to be sent to the department of juvenile justice and found guilty. but a judge could have him removed from his parents custody. we will just have to see what happens with extremely tragic case, eric. steve or anywhere that student got the gun, christina thank you, arthel. arthel: 's are. our eric and christina new coronavirus variants is quickly is spreading across the country. the world health organization said it is the most transmissible variant yet sprayed dr. marc siegel on what you need to know but stick around for that, that is coming up next. we got this, babe. that means that your dreams are ours too. and our financial planning tools can help you reach them.

vaccine then you have some protection against severity against hospitalization. i am worried about that. there's a lot of people out there especially elderly or those with underlying conditions that have not had recent immunity part you said the key words, it's not just more contagious than anyone we have seen before, 1.5 times more than the previous, but also it invades immunity. does that mean the vaccines don't work? does that mean the prior immunity from your infection a month ago doesn't work? note they work against severity against hospitalization. arthel: if that's the case dr. mark if you got the newer vaccine, which i did, and if you do get covid than how sick could we get? >> a great question. i had also by the way and i think you would get less sick much less sick you have a much milder case are seeing more muscle aches with this variant. but it's what you know before

the sore throat, the fatigue, the nasal congestion. we have a little scarce right now i think that drug works very well. especially if you are in a high risk group with your over the age of 50 it works dramatically well. and you have hopefully a recent shot or recent infection. and i also want to take this moment to point out if you are going to grandma's house, or someone where there's someone at higher risk, be mindful of that too. you know if you are younger and feeling fine but you have a sniffle, test yourself. we have a lot of rapid tests around. test yourself before going to grandma's. now is a time to think about the people who are more at risk and how to protect them. so i might wear a mask going to grandma's house for an eye wear went on a plane, i wear went on a train. i wear winter grandma stu. >> yes we are showing pictures of people wearing masks. some people are walking outdoors its file footage of course when it was really prevalent. as we are talking about now it's

coming back. you mentioned wearing masks at grocery stores you just saw that. wearing the masks at airports, train stations, to grandma's house as you said, dr. siegel. what about the office elevator or the elevator in your high-rise building. >> this is why like being on with you. think of elevators every day of the week nobody ever talks about them. they have zero ventilation. ventilation is more important than masks. if you are in a space with no ventilation a person before you might've had covid that's exactly what i would wear a mask forcing hospitalizations go up again 70% the variance of the northeast right now are already this ex- beebe 1.5 pretties going to spread across the country. it is going to cause a surge. will it be like when delta came? no part will be an omicron first appeared? no. it's definitely a surge we are

in the middle of winter here. it is a respiratory virus time. we are seeing less flu, less rsvp to going to see more of this amnesia mindful of it. >> are really doing dr. marc siegel we really appreciate your great advice for us here today on "fox news live" for it will see dr. mark take care. >> always a great come arthel thank you. >> thank you we will be right back.
