that could be part of your college application, taking away some of the identity of that child to what they say for equity make things more even and not hurtful for children who didn't rise. well, my goodness. if no one is rising, will we all be on the floor? >> equity is the new racism. >> we have to leave it there, guys. thank you so much to everyone. don't forget, dvr the show. "america reports." >> sandra: begin with more stone walling out of the white house, and on those biden documents. we will get to them in just a moment. we are watching this scene at the southern border. stunning new numbers just in on the border crisis and the number of migrants shattering another record. further proof that the crisis is only getting worse. all of this as a prominent democrat gets a firsthand look at the situation in el paso, and now pleading with president biden to take action. >> more democrats take it

seriously? art del cuteo will weigh in on that. >> sandra: provided and the classified documents, the scandal continues to unravel. look who set the alarm early for us. hey, trace. >> trace: great to see you. pressure has grown on the white house to release visitor logs from the president's delaware home. his attorneys telling fox news no such logs exist and any information related to his personal residence is private. >> sandra: another batch of documents was found at the president's home over the weekend even though the white house has repeatedly claimed the search was complete. top house republicans say we need more transparency about how this investigation is actually being handled.

>> president biden's personal attorneys are still rummaging around what essentially would be a crime scene trying to find information to turn over. so you know, this whole process has been handled poorly. we want to know who had access to the classified documents at the biden home. >> trace: jonathan turley is standing by. >> sandra: jacqui heinrich live on the north lawn, news keeps coming in every hour, jacqui. what are you now hearing about these visitor logs and if they exist. >> well, sandra, last night house oversight republicans formally asked the administration to release the visitor logs from the president's delaware home and we asked the white house that same question back on friday, asking about a timeline. at that point in time they deflected and now we know why. they are telling us this morning that they actually don't keep track of that kind of thing, the white house counsel office explaining like every president

in decades of modern history, his personal residence is personal. upon taking office he restored the norm and tradition of keeping white house visitor logs, including publishing them regularly after the previous administration ended them. trump administration did keep white house visitor logs but did not release them publicly. but the lack of that same information as it pertains to biden's delaware home is now fueling planned republican probes over the president's son, and his ties to foreign entities. >> i think it's particularly concerning to the american people considering that hunter biden has all these unsavory relationships with foreign entities and profited over those relationships and he had access to this home, was renting the home and living in the home according to his records. >> democrats who sounded off about national security risks surrounding the mar-a-lago raid are boxed in to their own statements. >> i don't think we can exclude the possibility without knowing

more of the facts. we have asked for an assessment in the intelligence community of the mar-a-lago documents. i think we ought to get is that same assessment of the documents found in the think tank as well as the home of president biden. >> so this revelation comes after the white house already took a lot of heat for claiming they were being transparent but not letting the public know about this until long after the midterm elections and slow rolled it again this past week telling us on thursday that the search was complete but not letting us know about the latest discovery until saturday, sandra. >> sandra: jacqui heinrich on all of that, keep you posted, live at the white house. jonathan, i'm not asking you to wade into politics but i think it's important to point out that nancy pelosi, chuck schumer, hakeem jeffries, they remain silent on this since we had this third document discovery over the weekend. i mean, they are dodging questions. this is when we have seen them

asked on the record about this. listen. >> what did you think to yourself, looking at that image? >> how that could possibly happen, how anyone could be that irresponsible. >> no one is above the law, not even a president or former president of the united states. >> it's a large chunk of the republicans, not all of them, but a large chunk have become what i called maga republicans, trump republicans, little resuspect for rule of law. >> sandra: ok. ok, so that is some of what we have heard about classified documents being found and the importance of it. why is it not the same, and jonathan, what questions do you have at this hour after you've been taking us through this breaking news, you joined us throughout it last week. >> well, you know, the democrats are facing a rather unique dilemma in that they finally found a position you can't spin out of, and this is a city where spin is an art form, but there

is no way to spin this. there was an effort, the first two days to say oh, this is inadvertent, a few documents in a closet, not make a big deal out of it. the fourth discovery and the other details have come out, it's really impossible to spin it to say it's not a serious violation, classified rules and laws. but the position of the white house is really getting to be comical. you cannot claim the residence is a private setting when you have used it to store classified documents. it's not a private domicile, classified documents may have been held in highly in secured

circumstances for six years. and saying you don't have a log to the residence might seem like a good position to have, it's not. it's actually going to be far worse. a log, you can turn over. the house representatives have legitimate interest in who was in that house. the minute you store classified evidence in your house, there is an interest in whether there are security violations, or possibly compromised. so they can get that information from another source, and that source would be staff and family. they can start to interview them, and i think courts will support that because courts are not going to buy this argument that this is just one more private domicile on a private little street. >> sandra: what we did play out was nancy pelosi, we basically turned back time on the revelation of the trump classified documents when pelosi

said no one is above the law, you had president biden saying how could anybody be that irresponsible, chuck schumer, you know, pointing fingers, but they have remained silent. in fact, the way they are responding, jonathan, tee it up again when asked about the biden documents. >> do you have any comment on president biden keeping classified documents -- >> seem much more measured about this than with the trump documents because you call for transparency with the trump documents, you wanted lawmakers to have access to the documents seized from the former president, his residence in florida. >> i said it's premature to comment what should be done. that's what i said. i sure do. >> sandra: james comer will join us tomorrow, he is insisting more on the transparency

process. how much should the american public be privy to what we are learning, especially when it comes to who was coming and going to the president's -- to the president's -- the vice president then, the president's residence there when these documents were sitting there? is that public information, do you believe, should we know that answer? >> we should be able to know many of these answers. it's not enough to be we are transparent when we are transparently uncooperative with the press. they have not been transparent, they have refused to answer questions that they can answer. there's no legal barrier to them answering the questions. the questions are mounting, including the use of these lawyers. you know, there was initial question as to why you sent lawyers into this office in the first place, it does not appear that the university of pennsylvania or the center was asking biden to vacate the office, but even assuming you

are going to vacate the office, what was the role of the private lawyers. that question gets far more serious after november 2nd, so after november 2nd they have found highly classified documents and the indication has been that at least some of these lawyers did not have clearances, and what was really surprising is in the last discovery where they said they overlooked some documents, one of the attorneys said the prior attorneys did not have clearances. well, that means that almost two months later you were still using uncleared attorneys looking for documents that you know have contained highly classified documents. the other question is why it was overlooked. most classified documents are within a folder that has a broad border and over the top are these sort of all cap statement of the classification. it's hard to miss. i've worked with classified documents for 30 years. the only reason you would miss that is if it was taken out of its folder and that would be a

very serious thing here when they are arguing inadvertent. if someone took a classified document out of a folder they clearly knew it was classified and was at these locations. >> sandra: important stuff there and big questions yet to be answered. jonathan turley and all of that for us, thank you very much. trace, only seems to be growing this scandal. i think we were all part of the holiday weekend where we all looked down and saw the news the latest document reveal and thought wow, this is just -- this is getting bigger. >> trace: the point of the next guest, or down the line, byron york, he says this thing will get worse for the biden administration before it gets better and we are going have byron explain his philosophy in that and it will be fascinating to hear. sandra. >> sandra: we look forward to that. >> trace: the white house declaring a major disaster in

california, storms triggered landslides killing at least 19 and leaving thousands without power. jeff paul live for us in los angeles. and jeff, more severe weathe kn in sight to this? >> yeah, trace, the rain has all but stopped, at least here in southern california but the impact from the latest round of storms will be felt for quite some time up and down the coast of california, and this image behind me tells the story. that is a storm drain and that is a whole heck of a lot of water flowing into the ocean and unfortunately in some areas there are no drains like this, so it's just soaking into the ground and that's led to washed out roads like this one in ojay, california. the roads are crumbling and washing away. and you have people trapped and not able to drive out of the hard hit areas but those that do try to leave are stuck in

floodwaters and mud. northern california, the situation is just as bad if not worse. several low-lying communities are under evacuation warnings. multiple rivers continue to rise, officials say relief is on the way, but it will take some time. >> pumping the water but it's difficult to get ahead of the game because there is so much water still coming down, the tides are high. >> i used to live down here nine years and i have not seen it as bad as i have in the last three sets of storms. >> now the mountains of california, nearly two feet of snow has fallen in 24 hours, and they are expecting several more feet of snow on monday and trace, to give you an idea how much rain has fallen, about eight inches since the start of 2023, that's almost as much as we get for the entire year on average here in los angeles county. trace. >> trace: and some of the

mountain peaks, just under 500 inches of snow so far this year. jeff paul, back to you as the news warrants. tune into fox weather by downloading the app for free at foxweather.com, and use your phone to scan the qr code right there on the screen. >> sandra: thank you, trace. social media activity by the idaho quadruple murder suspect is raising eyebrows. the shocking questions he was asking on one site that could be used against him in a trial. mark is here to break that down for us. >> trace: a california sheriff's deputy shot and killed in the line of duty just two weeks after another officer from the same department was also shot and killed. but it's far from the only police department plagued by an alarming spike in attacks against officers. we will look at what's causing it. >> we have been demonized, degrated and people have less and less respect for law enforcement.

>> sandra: the faa is investigating after two passenger planes nearly collided at new york city jfk airport. airliners came within feet of each other on the runway, friday evening, and one of them was speeding up for takeoff going over 100 miles an hour. the pilot of that delta flight was able to hit the brakes just in time after spotting an american airlines jet taxiing from an adjacent runway that trace, clearly was not supposed to be there. >> trace: yeah, and it never happens. this should never even happen because there are distances you, mandated distances you have to follow and something like this

is a one in a billion chance, and so there's the investigation to look into this and find out how in the world could this happen. very scary. meantime, stunning new details about idaho quadruple murder suspect bryan kohberger coming from his social media activity. a reddit survey asked criminals about how they planned and committed their crimes. the question is, could this be something used against him if and when the case goes to trial. mark, always great to see you. i want to put these up on the screen, this is from the reddit survey. he asked questions like the following, did you struggle or fight the victim, how did you travel and enter the location that the crime occurred, and what was the first move you made in order to accomplish your goal. and then, mark, when you read the affidavit, it appears as if he actually took some of this advice and used it and went with it. your thoughts.

>> yeah, definitely coming into evidence. prosecutors will use it as another piece of their murder puzzle. now, it's not the same size piece in my opinion as his dna being found on the knife sheath left on the victims' bed, but certainly another piece to the puzzle to offer some insight into his very disturbing mindset. >> trace: if i can put it back on the screen, the last question, what was the first move you made in order to accomplish your goal, mark. as if there was some kind of prize for this. it really is kind of a stunning look into this guy's mindset. >> right. and the good news, though, is prosecutors never have to improve a motive. this guy is not in the right frame of mind if he's going to do something like this, and you can never pinpoint precisely what motivated him.

these words show a fascination with committing crimes, and that's something prosecutors will highlight for the jurors. >> trace: and this will be admissible you say in court, and how do lawyers use it, in a term of prep for the crime, how is that coming in, what's the context they allowed to bring this into the courtroom? >> well, understand it's not coming in without great objection from the defense. they would argue it's -- it has nothing to do with this particular crime, not this offense, he was doing work for school and the judge will weigh the benefits, the probative value versus the prejudicial value, and allowing it in for the prosecution, probably through the lead investigator for the defense then to cross examine. >> trace: your take quickly on the anna walshe case, missing in massachusetts. some of her friends spoke with

lawrence jones, and get your response on the other side. >> do you believe ana is alive or do you believe she is dead now that you know what you know? >> one in a million chance, not because -- because pamela and i know her personally how ana is driven and how she's independent, she would find a way to reach out to people if something would happen to her. >> not to be gruesome about this, mark, but they appear to be right. the odds are very, very slim she's alive, and kind of reminds me of the whole scott and laci peterson case, the evidence started to mount up and it did not look good. >> yeah, you want to hold out for hope but even when i appeared on the show last week i said prosecutors are going to be bringing murder charges every day, not ever thinking based on the mountain of evidence she might still be out there and for what, 16 days now, choosing not to contact anyone with the blood and the other evidence in this

case, unfortunately one in a million, those are pretty fair odds. >> yeah. mark, great to have you on. >> sandra: shocking rise in the number of police officers shot and killed in the line of duty. a new report finds 64 officers died from gun violence and 2023 has not started out any better. william joins us now. last year's number could have been higher, right? >> yeah, if not for a vest, it could be higher. 331 officers were shot last year, almost one a day. so here in california, two deputies from the same department died in the last two weeks. darnell calhoun killed friday responding to a child custody fight. isaiah cardero, killed by a third strike convict twice released after a judge lowered bail. >> nationwide we are confronting

those situations with armed individuals that overwhat seemingly seem to be minor disagreements are willing to engage law enforcement in life and death gun battles. >> my heart's broken for that family, for that -- for us as a community. two officers in two weeks, it's just -- >> why the increase? following the death of george floyd, many activist denigrated all cops and supported defunding police, that has led to no accountability and no consequences. >> we have a culture of lawlessness that has gripped this country. fueled by an open border, rogue d.a.'s, revolving door criminal justice system and the society tells people you are no longer accountable for your own actions. >> cops complain progressive prosecutors are not filing gun enhancements which bring longer sentences, right, and prosecutors say what's happening to truth and sentencing laws, what happened to these, inmates

are sentenced to ten years, getting out in five, as for rehabilitation, sandra, that's not working. 40% of felons reoffend in two years. >> sandra: such a huge part of the problem we are seeing in this country right now, william, you know trace, we all go in hopeful to aew year, does not look good, does not look like we are taking the steps in this country to correct the problem and it is incredibly sad to say. >> it is, and you look at the officers in los angeles being killed and the same time you've got the police chief in los angeles banning the thin blue line flag which officers say is a sign of respect for them and the chief is saying it's not, he believes it's become this racist symbol. we are going to talk to caitlyn jenner about that very important topic coming up. >> sandra: looking forward to that. >> trace: ukrainian officials say dozens are dead after a russian missile strike on an

apartment building. live on the ground as putin's brutal campaign intensifies. >> sandra: and trace, a prominent democrat visits the southern border but a very different response than the one president biden had just a week earlier. new york city's mayor says it's a national crisis. will more democrats get the memo? art del cueto will join us with reaction. >> the people who live in the cities don't deserve this. we expect more from our national leaders to address this issue in a real way.

>> trace: ukrainian soldiers arriving in oklahoma to begin training on the patriot air defense system to defend against russian missiles. around 100 will learn how to use the advanced weaponry. comes as the death toll rises to at least 40 after a russian

missile hit an apartment building. the war's deadliest attack in months. alex hogan is live in kharkiv, and alex, russia is starting new military training with belarus. what reaction is that causing in ukraine? >> hi, trace. joint drills are creating a lot of fear in ukraine, especially after this attack on an apartment complex, at least 40 have died and 75 wounded, many children needing critical care who are currently hospitalized. hundreds of workers and volunteers searched through the wreckage brick by brick trying to find more victim, some of whom were buried alive. they were trapped under rubble and texting loved ones. 39 were found, 30 others are still missing. the mayor warns at this point it is unlikely that they will find any more survivors.

in the last day in the eastern kherson region, russian shelling killed at least three and wounded 14 others. most of the weekend attacks damaged the energy infrastructure and experts from the international atomic energy, are there for a presence on sites like chernobyl. and 100 soldiers are learning to use the patriot missile, and russia is a saying the united kingdom "tanks will burn." and in kharkiv, the city has been the site of repeated attacks throughout the war, and this is exactly why ukrainian officials say the aid and training is so desperately needed for context here, people who live in this massive city, ukraine's second largest city, are on average going 3 to 6

hours every day without power. and to note that, trace, behind me, an entire city and you can barely see any lights in the shot behind me, given just how many people are not using electricity and how many simply don't have it. trace. >> trace: very sad, alex, thank you. live on the ground in kharkiv. >> sandra: new evidence the migrant crisis is getting worse, migrant crossings set a new high last month, more than 250,000 migrants making their way across the border. all this as democratic new york city mayor eric adams met with migrants at the border and urged president biden to fully address this national crisis that has stretched even his city's resources thin. we are talking about new york city. art del cueto, president at the national border patrol council and goes to show you this is not just a border state or border

community issue, this is everywhere, you have a democratic mayor of new york city sounding off and now putting the pressure on the president to do something about it. art. >> correct, and that's something that should have been done from the start, we have seen the numbers go up since this administration took office. but finally breaking out of the echo chamber and saying there is a problem, let's fix it. it's going to fall on having to fix it. we have to try to fix it. it does not work when you say do something, do something, and the white house ignores it. something needs to be done and soon instead of every single month we have to talk about new record numbers, new record numbers, that's -- that's getting very, very old, and above all, it's a real danger to the communities all over the united states, and it's going to be a danger for many decades to come. >> sandra: and for anybody who wants to suggest things are getting better, the numbers do not tell that story. we can peck up the southern border surge we have seen in the months leading up to this record

high, 250,000 in december. i mean, this has been, art, month after month after month, and you look at the chart and wonder where things will be a few months from now. >> or even a year from now, and that's where the problem is. you are seeing the numbers of what they are encountering, you are not seeing the amount of drugs coming through because the drug cartels know where to send people through. all of those are things you are not seeing but obviously it's something that's going to be affecting us for a long, long time to come and once again, it's good to hear somebody outside of the echo chamber, but more people need to be speaking up and realize the drug cartels, the bad guys, they don't care what side of the aisle you are at. they just want to bring their product across, make money, put people's lives at risk and the white house needs to take it into consideration and get it done. >> the pressure has to be bipartisan, it cannot just be republicans pushing this issue, it's got to be covered by the

media and get democrats to stand up and speak, and so many city's resources are spread so thinly, mayor adams blaming the national government for what is happening. >> we are not pointing the finger at el paso or houston, we are pointing at the national government, it's a national problem. we must have real immigration reform. >> sandra: you mentioned the drugs. we might not see the cartels smuggling them with our own eyes, we see it killing children in this country, art, and see it in growing numbers. we have interviewed far too many parents here on the program, on this network that have lost children to this fentanyl crisis. do you believe, are you hopeful as bad as it is now getting perhaps that's what it's going to take, are you hopeful that you will see growing calls from democrats to pressure this white

house to do something? >> you know, i'm not hopeful for the cause, i'm hopeful something gets done. we have been screaming about it for two years and nothing has been done. what i'm hopeful for, finally somebody wakes up and gets something done and they are right. it is a federal problem. the federal government needs to take charge and get it fixed and not just about reform, it's about border security. people say ok, do some type of reform. no, let's do border security, let's put the right measures and the right policies in place to stop the madness on the southern border. it's affecting the entire country. >> sandra: and people see what this is doing to their communities all over the country, less than two years from a presidential election and you are seeing a lot of people that are witnessing with their own eyes who had not in recent years but are now. thank you for joining us, appreciate it. >> trace: the nation remembers dr. martin luther king, jr., president biden honoring him with a speech in washington a

day after visiting the atlanta church where the civil rights icon was a pastor and charles watson is live there today. how is the church honoring dr. king's legacy? >> yeah, hey, good afternoon, trace. i've got to tell you, in terms of atlanta, the celebration over the life and legacy of dr. martin luther king, jr. has been ongoing for about a week. in terms of ebenezer baptist church, they are holding their annual mlk commemorative service, wrapping up in a few minutes, a notable list of attendees, atlanta mayor dickens, yolanda adams, and dr. berneice king, implored everyone inside to in the just quote her father but to uphold his legacy of bringing people together for the greater good every day, and that is certainly a message that is sticking with folks who are here today to honor dr. king,

take a listen. >> i saw crying because i see people coming together as one but it should be like that every day. it really should be, and i'm praying for the world, praying for peace, love, happiness. >> ebenezer baptist senior pastor rafael warnock spoke briefly, extended an invitation for president biden to address the congregation on what would have been dr. king's 94th birthday, the first time a sitting president has ever delivered a sermon at ebenezer baptist regular sunday as much as and biden took that opportunity to evoke dr. king's life and legacy as he touched on how fragile our democracy was then and is now, and trace, to further celebrate the life and legacy of dr. king, the king center is holding a number of activities off to the side of us, voter registration wells

learn-in in philadelphia, focusing on gun violence, gun safety kits to hand out to the community, a lot of activities ongoing across the country to uphold dr. king's legacy, trace. >> trace: charles watson live in atlanta. thank you. sandra. >> sandra: the u.s. is three days away from hitting its debt limit and there's a huge tug of war in washington over what we are going to do about it. a look at that debate and the impact it could have on your wallet. >> trace: some virginia schools under scrutiny for delays in telling students about merit scholarship awards, in the name of equity. the governor is weighing in. what he has to say and get vikram's take on this coming up. has no idea she's sitting on a goldmine. well she doesn't know that if she owns a life insurance policy of $100,000 or more she can sell all or

>> sandra: the u.s. is set to hit the debt limit in the next

three days. what happens if america's credit card maxes out at the end, edward lawrence is at the white house for us. i ask you what is at stake here and the context of i think of having covered the debt limit for so many years and getting close to it or getting to it, people wonder, what does it mean for them, what does all of this mean, edward, what do we need to know? >> full faith and credit of the federal government, the basis the foundation of our economic network and markets that works that says hey, our word, our dollar is good. that's what's at stake here, it's very high stakes. this is going to be the first challenge really for house speaker kevin mccarthy and the first real test for president biden related to the new congress that he has in becoming house speaker, mccarthy pledged to stop the seemingly unlimited spending that president biden lassen joe biden. here he is on sunday morning futures. >> the last four years democrats

were in the majority, they increased discretionary spending 30%. the republicans the years prior did not increase it $1. >> the government will not hit the limit until over the summer because the treasury secretary will implement what's called extraordinary measures. mccarthy agrees the democrats will agree to a spending cap the last time they were close to the debt ceiling. the white house press secretary says it's up to congress. so far the president not weighing in on this. >> the sooner congress acts, the better since even the prospect of not raising the debt ceiling will have damage, the full faith and credit of our nation and we are going to continue to encourage congress to act. >> the two sides are still miles apart, democratss saying we have already spend the money so we needs to raise the limit. republicans saying let's cut the spending so we don't have to get to the limit next time. sandra.

>> sandra: good stuff, you need to understand what is the a stake, it's a massive amount of money. edward lawrence, thank you. trace. >> trace: struggling americans watching every penny. the white house is trying to paints a rosy picture. how much more the average family is spending now compared to just a year ago. our money panel breaks it all down. >> sandra: we will have a fascinating look at that. meanwhile, some of biden's fellow democrats going after him now over the classified documents and the growing scandal. could the investigation throw a wrench in biden's big plans, perhaps, for 2024? we'll ask byron york when he joins us live next. i'd like to thank our sponsor liberty mutual. they customize your car insurance, so you only pay for what you need.

>> trace: some democrats having a hard time over classified documents and wonder how it may impact 2024. bring in byron york. you think it gets worse for the president before it gets better. explain that for us. >> well, the big problem we have right now is all that we know, the only things we know are the things that joe biden's lawyers have told us. go back and think what you know about this. oh, they discovered five more documents in the personal library in wilmington or this

amount of documents in the garage or this number of documents at the penn biden center. all this we know or think we know because joe biden's lawyers have told us. the same with the circumstances of this whole thing getting started, november 2nd, the lawyers are emptying out an office for biden that was -- that he used as a private citizen, so you think to yourself do we know the whole story or is it just what one side has told us and right now it's what one side has told us. >> trace: and that side, the democrats, some of them unhappy with the president. >> is it possible that national security was jeopardized here? >> i think we can exclude the possibility without knowing more of the facts. >> embarrassment, no doubt about it. more to it, i doubt it. >> i'm glad there is a special prosecutor that's been appointed.

any time there is a -- security protocols should be investigated. >> after the statement, ilhan omar said trump was worse, oh, but by the way, trump is worse, and then david axlerod said i think it's going to be improving for the president, your thoughts. >> a number of democrats are at the at least embarrassed by this. a few months ago they went out and ripped donald trump, just tore into him over the classified document scandal and now they have to defend joe biden who is accused of having improperly stored classified documents. now, as far as the president's re-election prospects are concerned, yes, the president had been having a pretty good week up until this. midterms were better than he thought, and the republican party was having, you know, trouble getting its act together in the house of representatives.

but you have to remember well before that we had a lot of polls that showed a majority of democrats wanted someone else to be the party's presidential nominee in 2024. most of them because they thought joe biden was too old to serve a second term which would take him to 86 years of age. that has not changed. i think what we have now with the classified documents problem is just one more reason the democrats might be uncomfortable about having biden run again. >> yep. byron york, thank you, sir. >> thank you, trace. >> trace: more on this next hour with republican wisconsin congressman mike gallagher. >> sandra: thank you, trace. all new at 2:00, we will speak to a passenger from that near collision at jfk airport. what was going through his mind when disaster nearly struck? plus, the lapd banning the pro police thin blue line flag over
