6:00 am
♪ >> that's scotty mccreery. he became famous on "american idol."enter >> he is such a nice guy. >> he did our christmas specials, too. see you back here tomorrow. >> bill: good stuff, thanks, guys. good morning. is it cooperation with a catch that's what the white house is promising republican investigators. they argue the white house stonewalled them. in truth we're at the early stages of this story. i'm bill hemmer. it is tuesday today. >> dana: i'm dana perino and this is "america's newsroom." great to be with you. the white house telling james comer it will accommodate his committee's request for information as long as they are, quote, legitimate. so keep that word in moonlit. the white house also signaling it can only share limited
6:01 am
information with republicans in order to protect the integrity of the special counsel investigation. >> bill: dana, as we know there are so many questions left unanswered. one of the biggest, who removed those top secret papers from that scif. that's a secure room used to view sensitive materials on the hill by all lawmakers. documents are supposed to stay there. somehow they ended up scattered across the president's home and private office and probably there for years. >> dana: the white house press corps is pushing for that information. after three weeks of non-answers the frustration is boiling over. >> is president involved in a cover-up? >> he has been very clear that he takes this very seriously. you asked me the question that everybody laughed at which was interesting question to ask. but any other underlying questions that you may have i would refer you to my colleagues, the white house counsel. i will continue to be prudent
6:02 am
and consistent and refer you to any questions you have there. >> dana: team fox coverage karl rove on deck with analysis. let's go to capitol hill where aishah hosni is standing by. committee members would love the documents. what do you think will happen? >> good morning. the question swirling here on capitol hill right now is how in the world did then senator biden walk out of a scif with top secret documents. it's even got some of the most senior democrats here in the senate saying i would never do such a thing. >> i'm not certain how because i never have taken classified document outside of our scif. so i don't know that. we need total transparency. i can't wait to see how this investigation unfolds. >> now the topic is bound to be talked about at today's first senate intel briefing that happens later this afternoon and guess where it will happen?
6:03 am
inside a scif. how republicans in the meantime say very disappointing the senate is now part of this widening probe. >> this goes back to the laxness that i would like to say is related to him and his staff. but also the passing of documents, perhaps c.i.a., f.b.i. or n.s.a. those people inevidently gave him documents. >> so perhaps there are senators digging through their drawers, several checking if they have misplaced their own classified documents. we don't know that yet. we reached out to the national archives and d.o.j. to find out if there were any members who recently reached out about discovering some classified documents. we haven't heard back from both of those agencies yet. >> dana: we know you're on top of the story and we'll stay in touch. >> bill: we'll bring in karl rove. good morning in austin, texas.
6:04 am
queue it up and tell us where you think we are now. >> we're into the process but we're a long way from its conclusion and it will get uglier. asia had a good question. who took that document out of the scif. the senator, then senator biden, is by himself in that scif. there is no aide there. no he took it. similarly the bulk of these documents were documents he received as vice president of the united states. who do we think took those out of his office and home? it was him. he was mishandling them to say that's what i want to take home. this is not going to be a pleasant picture. we already know it's hurting him. look at this. abc news. 77% of those surveyed said trump acted inappropriately and this is last week. 64% said biden had acted inappropriately. that's before this latest drop. i bet those numbers begin to
6:05 am
continue to close up. 43% said trump is more serious. 20% said biden more serious and 30% said both. you would expect the republicans to be critical of biden and democrats to the critical of trump. what's interesting is independents, 83% of independents think trump acted inappropriately. 66% of independents thought biden acted inappropriately and that's before the latest information we've received and it will only get worse for the president. >> dana: it is difficult to look at these situations, as you said we're at the beginning, not the end. we're also aware that both men, former president trump and president biden seem to plan to run for re-election. so look at what peter doocy asked karine jean-pierre. >> those of us who are good cooks, you know, people don't realize electric stoves can't give you the right setting.
6:06 am
>> dana: that was not peter doocy. basically -- >> bill: we want the mayor to join dana and me on the air and extending that invitation every day now. he has got a real problem with the media misconstruing what he is trying to say. we'll give an open table when he decides to say yes on that. >> dana: let me tee it up. peter doocy asked is this document situation going to affect president biden in 2024? we already know he has punted announcing until after the state of the union. do you think they'll brush this off? >> they can't. the american people aren't going to brush this off. this is the quandary they're in. the department will be looking at president biden and people are putting both trump and biden acted ina i appropriately with documents. if you look at the real clear
6:07 am
politics average remember how they said they had a bump after the election. it's falling and back before the election. real clear politics in their most recent trend line down 1.1, down 1.7. both back to the 42 to 43 range where there were on election day. as i said we are tow beginning of this process, not the end. these numbers are likely to go lower. >> bill: can you answer for that as to how documents were found at his home from the time not as vice president, or even president, but as u.s. senator? have you based on your own recollection, have we had another senator with classified documents at their personal residence ever been discovered before? >> not that i recall. but granted, this is a special case because this is a senator
6:08 am
who became vice president and president. but again back to the question that aishah asked at the beginning. how did he give it? he is in the scif. he is allowed to read in document in a secure facility. manchin said when you leave the scif typically the official in charge of the scif asks you are you clean, have you left everything? how did joe biden, then senator biden at that point the chairman of the senate foreign relations committee how did he walk out of there saying have you left it and why did he walk out of there with it? he knew probably better than 99.999% of the people on the face of the planet what he ought to do. leave the stuff behind. it's why you are in a scif. same thing as vice president. the same thing as vice president. >> bill: i wonder if it's ever happened before. we're told it is a secure area and under lock and key and you don't walk out there with
6:09 am
documents. thank you, karl, once again you raise good questions. something else real quick? >> we did have the instance where former national security advisor walked out of the national archives with documents stuck in his socks but no, i haven't -- no senator i'm aware of. >> bill: that led to the greatest headline, docs in his socks. the mayor adams invitation is open again. >> dana: it was an enticement to have him come. the story continues. the press office settled in and refer everything to the spokesperson for the special counsel's office and you will hear a lot more from here. to california. watch this. >> hands up. >> dana: police in northern

california taking a suspected gunman into custody. they say he shot and killed seven people at two separate farms south of san francisco. he worked at one or both locations, investigators say he turned himself in to the sheriff's department and is cooperating. claudia cowen is live in sausalito, california. >> another mass shooting this one crossing two crime scenes in half moon bay, an agricultural area along a section of coast not far from san francisco, just south of the city. famous for its annual pumpkin festival and art galleries. not for violence that happened yesterday afternoon. four people were killed at a mushroom farm and nursery off of one of the main highways there. then the bodies of three other victims were found at another business several miles away near

highway one. it is believed all seven were chinese and latino farm workers, eighth victim is in the hospital in critical condition. authorities say at the time of the shooting there were a lot of people present, including children. >> there are people that live at the location as well so, you know, it was in the afternoon when kids were out of school and for children to witness this is unthinkable. >> police have identified the gunman as 67-year-old chunli a resident. he acted alone and worked at one of the businesses targeted with the help of translators called to the scene police were able to get enough information to come up with a vehicle description. and shortly after the shootings several hours later a deputy spotted the car in the parking lot of the sheriffs substation in half moon bay with the man

>> bill: we found this heart-stopping moment in texas. a single engine plane crashing in your houston burst into flames in the middle of the highway. check out the video. flipped an 18-wheeler. the pilot and truck driver walked away unharmed. officials say the pilot lost
6:19 am
engine power and tried to land with the traffic. i would say he did a pretty good job. this is in texas. >> dana: check this out. fox news exclusive video showing a high-speed chase erupt into a fiery crash near the border in texas. two human smugglers involved. matt finn is live in eagle pass, texas with the details. hi, matt. >> that fiery crashed happened in kinney county not far from here in eagle pass. deputies say they spotted the red car speeding. they tried to pull over that car with some road spikes and realized there were two human smuggling cars working together referred to as load cars. the red car ends up crashing on the side of the road catching fire. deputies spring to action to rescue the people inside and they arrested two u.s. citizens or human smuggling and detained three illegal migrants. also not far from the fiery crash in kinney county deputies
6:20 am
noticed a horse trailer in an area usually doesn't see horse trailers on the road. they pull over the driver and discover ten illegal migrants in the horse trailer from various countries, including mexico and honduras. it wasn't the first horse trailer pulled over with illegal migrants and probably not the last. even though migrant numbers are down in lower months as in january and february he says he is not seeing a dip. >> last year was an extraordinary year. my numbers are up here at the local level. so to tell me the numbers are down, no. if we want to base it off 4 or 5 years from now maybe so. right now my numbers are up. >> also we wanted to show you the temperatures here now are in the 40s in the early morning and late night hours. adults are still crossing the rio grande river with very young children. we captured this video of a shirtless wet child whim purring after adults carried him across the river and put clothing on him and watched as border patrol
6:21 am
agents assisted the unit and processed those migrants into the united states. >> dana: so many different stories happening at the same time. matt, thank you. >> bill: in the meantime you've got the new study suggesting u.s. military support for ukraine could hurt our own ability to fight a war. d.c. think-tank claims the drain on the pentagon's stockpile is so severe we may not be ready in case there is a war between china and taiwan. michael allen former member of the bush national security council. welcome back here. seth jones was quoted in the piece "wall street journal" saying the bottom line is defense industrial base is not prepared for the security environment that now exists. it is suited to a peacetime environment. on the face would you agree? >> i would agree with him but this is the fault of an overly bureaucratic system. the congress and pentagon neither that fight at the speed
6:22 am
of war. these are correctable issues. this country has a history especially going back to world war ii of being able to solve defense industrial-based issues. we can't let these shortcomings dictate our national security interest. we need to help the ukrainians, finish the job. they're winning. at the same time arm taiwan to prevent a war so that xi gets up every morning and says to himself today is not the day i want to try to mount this invasion. >> bill: i see a number. since the invasion began last february we've committed $27 billion. humvees, helmets, all of that. is our support endless financially and militarily? >> definitely not. we need our allies to step up. many have with one notable exception in germany. but we can do two things at once, as they say. we can walk and chew gum at the
6:23 am
same time. they are not using the same weapons in both theaters. it is true we definitely need anti-tank missiles in taiwan and in ukraine. but in ukraine they are in need of armored vehicles and tanks that aren't applicable to the potential situation in taiwan. >> bill: on the tank issues specifically the abrams. we have not committed any yet. maybe we concede at some point. we have argued or been told they require jet fuel and are much more difficult to maintain in the field of battle. do you buy that argument or do you see us going there at some point soon? >> so i do understand what they are saying. it is harder logistically i think with the abrams tanks but we ought to send a few over there or as many as it takes to get the germans to step up to give them political cover so that they will use their tanks, which we think are better suited for the terrain in ukraine. so we need to step up.
6:24 am
we need to get the germans to get off the bench and help ukraine because i think this is the pivotal year. this is the year that the ukrainians will mount a serious counter offensive in the spring and summer and we have to help them get there so we can then spend our time on asia. after all, we're not sure the chinese would go after taiwan at least until 2027. so we have time to fix these industrial-based read enes issue. >> it appears europe is moving toward that way in terms of poland and germany may be that seems to be the trend. >> there are so many different tanks in countries asking germany that they could send some they sold. the germans ought to be ashamed of themselves but they usually do the right thing after trying everything else. i think they'll get there here

6:31 am
match the store hours closing at 5:00 or 6:00 in the evening in response to a frustrated customer on twitter. the change is due to rise in crime and vague ran see that occurred in these 24/7 vestibules. >> i don't think this conversation is at all limited to j.p. morgan. i think everybody is thinking about keeping their employees and their customers safe and doing what they have to do, whether it's close atm vestibules or change hours of operation. whatever is required to keep people safe. >> now chase bank wouldn't tell us which locations or how many locations are changing their hours but it did tell fox digital for the safety of our customers and employees, we may temporarily close some a.t.m.s overnight. this is not limited to just banks across the city.

starbucks also closed two dozen locations around the country last year over safety concerns. mcdonalds making similar moves when it shut erred some stores around the country. walgreens in northern california and also making similar closures. as for the incident that happened at this chase bank location two weeks ago, the nypd says it does not have an update since sharing this information on twitter. this person threw coffee in a man's face. it appears the suspect may still be at large for now. >> bill: thanks for the warning lydia hu on the streets of manhattan. thank you. >> dana: violence among children is soaring at an alarming rate taking a mounting toll on america's youth as more end up behind bars or killed. the number of killings committed by children under 14 was the highest in two decades according to the most recent data. retired nypd inspector paul morrow and tyrus join us now.
6:33 am
let me put the numbers on the board and get you to react. call for number one, juveniles killed by gunfire in select cities, philadelphia, new york city and washington, d.c. you can see how it increases over the last three years. especially like in philadelphia up 81 murdered in 21 and 22 up from 52 in the two years before that. juveniles arrested for shootings in select city 92.5% increase in philadelphia. 124 arrested in new york city, an 88% increase. washington, d.c. is looking at a high of 214. >> bill: all that is bad. >> dana: terrible. in your experience have you seen this before? because as i understand it, youth crime had gone down but now creeping back up. >> let's go beyond the obvious soros prosecutor point we make this in context. let's look at one of the criminal justice reformed enacted in new york, raise the
6:34 am
age. the age of crime gnat responsibility was always 16. it was raised to 17 and 18. good reasons for that. reasonal minds can differ. as usual we threw the baby out with the bath water. we went too far. you go to family court if you're not 18 for almost all crimes. we saw it over the weekend with adam clots, a gang assault. they all got out immediately. an investigation into their attempt to light somebody on fire but they all got out for the assault. what happens? no disincentive if you are a young person against committing crime. the perps no that. in a lot of instances. i don't know what happened there. a lot of instances older experience perps will use younger people to commit crimes because they get off scot-free and that's not helping anything. as usual with these reforms when they go too far they hurt the
6:35 am
very people they are supposed to help. >> bill: kids killing kids. >> this is where let's raise the ante more. you have to start charging the parents. the parents have to be responsible. if your child is out in a gang beating people up, you need to be held responsible for that. another thing we thatted to look at. start thinking about curfews. there is no reason a child under a certain age should be on the streets at 10:00 or 11:00 at night. those two things would help. if the parents are being held responsible because they could be held accountable if their children can't since they don't want to lower the age. that won't help with the progressive government we have here. so let's start holding mom and dad responsible and you might see a drastic drop in this stuff. >> dana: we know that shoplifting is happening across the country. certainly in new york city big cities like san francisco. take a look at this. four migrants arrested for
6:36 am
shoplifting $12,000 in goods in long island from the police department there. you have $12,000 in just a few weeks here. this is not good. >> things in new york city aren't bad enough but we are now importing criminals. we need to secure the border point. there are laws on the books that would allow for deportation in instances like this. what you need is something called an aggravated felony. a felony theft qualifies as an aggravated felony. there is no chance these folks will get deported. it will be pled down. how about this? if you repeat in this area and continue to do this kind of thing we won't plea you out. you are going to court. we'll get the conviction and that means you are deported. then your bio metrics are in the system. cbp has that and you get no play at the border. it's you, we can match you, turn around and go the other way. >> bill: they must have been
6:37 am
stunned they were arrested and allowed to go home. >> they've done their homework and fitting in just fine. i think when you hear the argument asylum seekers, this is not asylum seeker behavior. it's criminal behavior. the get arrested and you send them back we have 1.2 unaccounted that have slipped in and plenty of free trips. it all comes back to the same thing. free money always leads to bad issues. doesn't matter if you're american citizens or illegal country. when they give you a bunch of stuff. they have relatives, steal this or whatever they have to let you out. it is open field. we have to have curfews now. the word 24/7 will be something popular in the 80s and nine 0s. we have to shut the town down at 5:00. >> dana: everyone could watch the 5:00 then if we look for a silver lining. >> bill: you are already number
6:38 am
one. >> dana: we are number one. >> bill: thank you, paul. egg prices on the rise again. what's the white house have to say about that this time? we'll check it out. m & ms is taking a pause over what and who? we'll tell you coming up. ♪ come here! you know why people are always looking at their phones? they're banking, with bank of america. see cousin jimmy over there? his girlfriend just caught the bouquet so... he might need a little more help saving. for that engagement ring... the groom's parents. you think they're looking at photos of their handsome boy? they're not! she just saw how much they spent on ballroom dance classes... won't be needing those anymore. digital tools so impressive, you just can't stop banking.

>> dana: 22-year-old went missing while free diving off the coast of key west. that was last week. after the current swept him away from his boat family and friends searched for hours fearing the worst. they found him clinging to a buoy and pulled him to safety and he grew up in the area so he said he was pretty familiar. the current had taken him way out and he had swam back two miles or something. >> bill: no gps tracker or anything on him? >> dana: not on him. it was a good news story. >> bill: looks like we're coming on sunset. a long night. pain at the pump is back if you've noticed. average price for a gallon of gas going up $0.35 in a month hitting 3.44 across the country. the administration says the problem is out of their hands. not what they said before. fox business and more north lawn, grady trimble.

>> mother nature is partly to blame for the uptick in gas prices according to the white house. it has gone up $0.12 in the past week. >> winter storm elliott pulled 2 million barrels off the u.s. market because of refineries that went down. that crimp in supply caused prices to go up. what happens in china. will they be opening up soon? are there expectations regarding an increased demand? >> house republicans are looking to stop the biden administration from using the strategic petroleum reserve to try to lower gas prices like it did last year. they've introduced a bill that would limit the president's ability to draw from the spr except in the case of emergencies unless he comes up with a plan to increase oil and gas production on federal lands. >> let's face it. the intent of the strategic petroleum reserve was not to score political points. that's what this administration
6:46 am
used it for. what raised gas prices in america was the war on fossil fuels that this administration undertook when they first got into office. >> the american petroleum institute tells fox business we welcome federal efforts to open up more acreage for american energy development and support congress's role in overseeing the emergency reserve that provides energy security for the american people. the house could vote on that bill later this week. if it passes, energy secretary jennifer granholm says the president will veto it. >> bill: we're watching it. >> dana: soaring egg prices are prompting money to smuggle them from mexico. our next guest owns a store along the tijuana border and said the american breakfast is no longer affordable. let's bring in the owner of a restaurant which has a great name.
6:47 am
please tell us what are you experiencing on your side of the border and why are people heading across? >> thank you for having me. we're seeing a lot of people definitely trying to get eggs on the other side. it is $2 a dozen in tijuana. big savings. lots of places on our side $6.99 and $7.99. you can find great prices at costco. small markets it's a bit higher and people are looking to save. with rising gas prices, they fill up across the border, they head down to tijuana and buy groceries and eggs. it could result in a hefty fine. >> dana: that's because it is not allowed, right? san diego said the immigration field office says if they catch you so you know, a failure to declare agricultural items could result in a fine of up to $10,000.
6:48 am
>> bill: you've been in business 55 years. it's your family business. take us through what the big difference is now? >> this was the first hispanic market in all of san diego county. there is a habit of customers typically going to tijuana never for eggs. we've never seen this. but many other items they'll shop both sides of the border to see where they can get the best deal. obviously with prices four times higher on this side people have to weigh the risk. is it worth the penalty? it starts with a $3 hundred fine. depends on how many eggs you are trying to cross. it is a bit ridiculous. i'm hearing the wait time this past saturday was four hours to cross the border and the response was well, there are lots of people bringing eggs illegally and we have to check the cars out. it's something, i tell you. >> dana: what's the reason behind the law? is it because american officials
6:49 am
