the hearing is at 2:30 this afternoon. we'll see what changes the judge makes in his lifestyle. >> bill: kelly o'grady watching the downloads of the crypto kid. thanks. >> dana: fox news alert top of the hour. three big stories now topping the news. deadly cartels dominating the border and beyond. it appears mexico is just letting them get away with it. is it time to authorize u.s. military action against the cartels? we'll hear from a lawmaker who has a plan. ohio town hall meeting gets heated as residents demand answers about their safety. nearly two weeks after a train crash we leased thousands of gallons of toxic chemicals the head of the epa is set to visit there today. elon musk weighs in on the new microsoft chatbot powered by artificial intelligence after it sends bizarre messages including some that threaten users. more on those stories throughout

the hour. growing pressure on president biden to finally speak out about the chinese spy flight and three other objects shot down from the skies over north america. lawmakers on both sides of the aisle are pushing for the president to be more transparent about the decision to shoot down the objects and the growing threat from china. welcome to a new hour of "america's newsroom," i'm dana perino. >> bill: good morning. how are we doing? >> dana: fast hour. >> bill: i'm bill hemmer. president biden so far keeping silent about the airborne objects shot down over the weekend. that was last weekend as lawmakers demand answers. the white house now considering plans for biden to give a speech on the topic before heading to poland on monday. secretary of state antony blinken will have a possible opportunity to meet with china's top diplomat later this week in germany. his first chance to de-escalate the tension face-to-face. mike pompeo saying it is time for the biden administration to get tough on china. >> this administration has declined to do anything that will protect the american

people. we have flipped the script for four years. when the biden administration came back in they went right back to the engagement model that hasn't served our country well. >> bill: full fox coverage as we begin a new hour. tom cotton reacts soon. peter doocy has the news live from the north lawn at the white house. is today the day, peter? good morning. >> could be. today is as good a day as any, bill. as president biden was walking by us on his way to his physical where he is right now, he stopped and listened to a shouted question about the chinese spy craft. he put up a finger as if to say not right now. and then just kept going. he still has not said anything in detail about this. and it's causing some consternation on capitol hill. >> at some point in time the president needs to talk to the american people. there is a lot of people that are very concerned, freedom and privacy is a big issue in

montana and across this country. people are concerned. i think it would help allay the concerns. >> not overly concerned the vice president. she was asked if the u.s. shootdown of a chinese spy flight should impact u.s. and chinese relations and she told "politico", quote, i don't think so, no. that has rick scott republican of florida saying her failure to understand and act on the threats facing our nation isn't just embarrassing, it is dangerous. communist china is our worst enemy and wants to destroy our way of life. if kamala harris doesn't understand that she should resign. on capitol hill lawmakers who have seen classified reports on the spy flight don't get why most of the details inside are classified. >> there are things they should tell us they don't know. they shouldn't let on to sources and methods but i don't think they've been transparent enough. as you know, when they are not transparent, you know, the wild speculation, unfounded fears can result in the public.

they need to be more transparent. >> at some point the president will have to say something about this. we just don't know when. >> bill: you reckon? thank you, peter. nice to see you back at work. >> dana: joining us for more on that republican senator tom cotton of arkansas. you were at yesterday's classified briefing on china and efforts to invade our airspace. john tester said this. there is bipartisan concern. listen here. >> the bottom line is this. they invaded our airspace. our airspace. they invaded. it is unacceptable. the fact is, it was inappropriate behavior and we need to respond in a way that shows them we don't stand for inappropriate behavior. >> dana: it is rare you get such bipartisan agreement, senator. >> where the biden administration has handled this entire balloon episode so poorly you have bipartisan agreement. the briefing yesterday was an alarming report on the state of china's military and the threat

to taiwan and allies in the western pacific and ultimately to american interest and why president biden's reaction to this spy balloon is so alarming and dangerous for the american people. i mean now you have kamala harris saying it shouldn't affect relationships. joe biden said it wasn't a major breach to fly a spy balloon across the united states. you have administration officials excusing china and apologizing for them saying they only meant to fly it over guam and hawaii and wind took it off course. a heck of a wind to blow it to alaska and continental united states and blow it over our nuclear missile fields and command and control sites. it is astonishing the biden administration is trying to turn the page on all this, act like it never happened. apologize for chinese communists. what they need to do is take a firm stand and make clear that we will not tolerate this kind of aggression from the chinese communists. >> bill: mitch mcconnell just told dana 15 minutes ago coming

out of the classified briefing they don't seem to know anything. that was his quote. if you go through the transcript of the pilots over lake huron over the weekend. it is hard to locate. the sun was strong. catching them in their eyes. but they indicated this object, whatever it was, they couldn't identify it, by the way. i don't know if they called it a balloon, in fact. they said it was smaller than the size of a car. so if you are flying at 25,000 feet, that's a spec in the atmosphere. can you illuminate us more on what these were? >> no, i really can't. this is why i think it's so important that joe biden come out and speak on camera to the american people today. justin trudeau the canadian prime minister did that last weekend. we aren't in a situation where trudeau is a more forceful leader than the american president. especially important that the president speak to the american

people before he leaves to go overseas later this holiday weekend. when the american people deserve answers from our president about exactly why he treated these balloons as he did, why he took the actions he did. especially why he allowed the first one, which is clearly a chinese spy balloon, to float on its merry way across america when we had it in our sights and could have downed it off the aleutian islands. >> dana: another issue has been covid. the world health organization quietly shelved its investigation into the origins of the pandemic. this has repercussions that we're still dealing with with learning loss or those experiencing long covid. now that these leaders will get together, is it time for some changes perhaps to the who? >> this is really an extension of what we've been discussing. the world health organization is in the pocket of chinese communists, they would never be trustworthy to identify the origins of the coronavirus.

as i said from the very beginning, despite the qatar walling of liberals in the media it almost certainly originated in labs in wuhan. the biden administration has turned itself into pretzels trying to avoid pinning the blame on the chinese communist party. one more example how they apologize for china, appease them and excuse their behavior to try to maintain the smooth relationship that joe biden has always advocated with our worst adversary in the world. >> dana: tom cotton, sounds like a busy day at the capitol. >> bill: thank you, senator, talk again soon. what senator dane said from montana was telling. he said norad was established in 1958. we are talking 60 years. that's alaska, canada and the lower 48. it never happened before. we haven't sent a fighter

aircraft to shoot down anything in 60 years. now we've done it repeatedly and yet no explanation. i imagine today could be the day, i think. i wonder if he will take questions. >> dana: i have a feeling they're trying to figure out how to explain the contradiction of allowing the chinese spy balloon to go across and shooting down three things that perhaps were not a threat at all. >> bill: maybe start with that question. >> dana: we'll see what we find out. also this on fentanyl. >> the cartels are acting with deliberate calculated treachery and they make these pill buying pill presses and dyes and dye molds mostly from china as well that look identical to the real pharmaceutical medicines. >> bill: the d.e.a. administrative. impressive person testifying yesterday. she calls the fentanyl crisis the single deadliest drug threat we've ever seen as the border patrol announces it seized enough fentanyl to kill 100

million people. aishah hosni is on that story. >> you were just on the border and you know as well as i do it's a bipartisan issue on capitol hill where everyone, democrats and republicans, want to see the stop of fentanyl coming across our southern border and that is why yesterday senators held a hearing on this questioning administration officials about this crisis. both sides agree the administration needs to be tough with china specifically which is the main splier of fentanyl that comes through mexico. >> has china done enough to stop the transport of fentanyl from china to mexico? i would appreciate a yes or no answer. >> no. i doubt he cares about his chemical and pharmaceutical industry supplying the mexican cartels flooding the united states with fentanyl. >> here is where it gets a little tricky. republicans brought up the open border during this hearing. some democrats didn't love that saying that this wasn't really the place to talk about it.

>> would cutting the number of agents in half stop our drugs? >> we have a bipartisan urgency to deal with this crisis and it is frustrating to me that in this hearing, a lot of folks want to try to levy other issues that are not central to dealing with this scourge. >> where there is also some more bipartisanship senators going after the social media platforms cracking down on them for illegally selling fentanyl to teenagers. >> bill: thank you, we're watching it from here. nice to see you. >> dana: possible good news story. a breakthrough maybe in the treatment of autism. scientists say an epilepsy drug used to switch off symptoms of autism in mike. dr. marc siegel will be here to break it down. >> bill: capturing how the cartels are in control of the

border. more from dramatic nighttime tour with lawmakers still to come. >> this is a national security crisis. 80,000 americans being killed because of these particular facility. it's not a crazy thought to say we need to take action there. okay everyone, our mission is complete balanced nutrition. together we support immune function. supply fuel for immune cells and sustain tissue health. ensure with twenty-five vitamins and minerals, and ensure complete with thirty grams of protein. veteran homeowners: making a big car payment every month? car loans can be expensive and the payments high. consolidate that car loan into a newday home loan and save hundreds every month. ♪ ♪

>> bill: want to get you live quickly to east lansing, michigan. officials from university of michigan state giving a bit more information after that deadly shooting the other day. this is the deputy department of police and public safety now talking. >> hopefully that's what takes place. which some has already done that. i think we needed to take a moment to state that. the appreciation for that. so what we are here now will be updates. in addition to the michigan state university police and

public safety representative that is here, we also have lansing police department, michigan state police, as well as the f.b.i. come with updates and again we appreciate your presence here with that. deputy chief. >> good morning, everybody. thank you, chief. i want to begin by again honoring the victims, our students. as a father, i cannot imagine what all the families continue to go through. the past few days have been so unbelievably difficult for our officers and our community, and we continue to mourn with our community and start the healing

process. the vigil last night was unbelievable. the turnout. we want to thank our michigan state police partners for providing security at that event so our msu police officers could attend. >> bill: tough days in lasting, michigan. the community coming together and the official from the university a moment ago. three dead, gunman killed himself at the end of that ordeal the other night. we'll follow this and give you updates. if and when they get our way out of east lansing. 19 minutes past the hour. >> dana: possible breakthrough in the treatment of autism. an epilepsy drug that costs $3 a pill was used to switch off symptoms of autism in mice. the lead researcher saying quote apparently drug treatment in adulthood can alleviate brain cell dysfunction and counteract the behavior abnormalities

typical of autism. let's bring in marc siegel. call for number one. u.s. autism diagnoses one out of 44 children. when you see news like this, it could get people's hopes up that there might be some treatment that will help. >> i think so. now this is out of germany, this study. it is published in molecular psychiatry. it is in mice. we have to start by saying let's see how it works in humans. i want to tell you why it will be helpful. this drug has been around since 1994, dana. it is used already for seizures. seizures can accompany being on the autism spectrum, number one. behavioral issues is the other thing we use the drug for. we start evidence with the drug for seizures and found out that it balances out mood.

they looked at also how it affects neurons. cells in the brain. they found that it stabilizes the membranes. so your brain cells are working better. what is going on in autistic spectrum disorder? often not an issue with intelligence. that's a huge mistake people make. it is about communications, about socialization. and this drug is already good for that. we're already using that in psychiatry regularly for that. i'm very optimistic this is a big breakthrough in terms of using the drug for autism starting in children in teens and adults even for both behavioral and socialization communication as well as decreasing the risk of seizures. >> dana: before you get to that point there are a lot of steps that have to be gone through. so what is the next step? if you have a research study like this, mice reacted, okay? then if we think we want to try it to see if it would help in humans, what do you do?

>> so that's a really good question. but i pointed out already you are able to skip kind of a safety step because you already know it's safe in humans. it is already used in humans. so basically you set up a clinical trial where you use this in humans. you go now from mice to humans knowing that the safety probably won't be an issue and you look for dosing and effectiveness. i would probably start with adults and move younger as i go along. this is a very inexpensive treatment also because it has been around so long. it is available generically so people will be able to afford this. again, watching this today i don't want you to go to your physician and say please prescribe this for me or my child. i want you to understand as dana said, the next step is clinical trials. clinical trials can proceed rapidly here because the drug is already on the market. >> dana: that's a very good point. that we already know it is safe at least for the purposes it is

used for now. maybe it will be added for autism. we'll keep an eye on it. thank you, dr. siegel. >> bill: wow. 23 past. the unchecked surge of migrants crossing into the u.s. illegally prompting house republicans to take a tour of the border yet again. what they saw in a moment. also as officials leave residents in the dark on the potential health risks of the train crash families at this town hall are at our wit's end. >> we just want answers. everybody wants answers. >> it was a big runaround. the answers given were things we've already been told. their frequent dry eyes, which may point to dry eye disease. millions of americans were estimated to have it. they also tell me they've tried artificial tears again and again, but the relief is temporary. xiidra can provide lasting relief. xiidra treats the signs and symptoms of dry eye disease. don't use if allergic to xiidra.

common side effects include eye irritation, discomfort or blurred vision when applied and unusual taste sensation. why wait? ask your eye doctor about a 90-day prescription for xiidra today. after years of chasing the big idaho potato truck... i finally caught it. oh man. always look for the grown in idaho seal. veteran homeowners: what if you could save a lot of money every month by paying off your car loan and paying off your high rate credit card debt? and still have cash left over to put in the bank? with a newday 100 va cash out loan, you could do it all. take out an average of $70,000 - with no upfront fees. no upfront appraisal fees, termite inspection, or water test fee. because a veteran shouldn't have to come up with money to get money.

>> dana: a group of bipartisan lawmakers holding the first-ever hearing at the border yesterday. fox news cameras tagged along as lawmakers went on a nighttime tour of the area. griff jenkins is live in mission, texas with the details. what was it like? >> well, this was the first but lawmakers told me it will not be the last. now this was the energy and commerce committee chaired by mcmorris that you heard right there. they took deep dive into the public health crisis at the border with particular focus on the unprecedented amount of deadly fentanyl coming across. they took the nighttime tour and saw the rgb sector and got a firsthand look where the migrants cross and fentanyl comes across and briefed by agents in the field. the white house blasted it as a house republican quote publicity stunt. three democrats felt it important enough to see for themselves. democrat representative angie craig had this to say. >> i think we have an american crisis and if we can't come together on a bipartisan basis, that's what i wanted to send a

message to my committee chair who happens to be a republican and i'm a democrat, is that we've got to come together to figure out how we solve this crisis. >> also in attendance congressman dan cran much shaw and has been putting forth legislation for the cartels. he says it is time to authorize military force. >> going after some of the leaders and facilities that produce fentanyl is a national security crisis. 80,000 americans being killed because of these particular facilities. it is not a crazy thought to say that we need to take action there. >> speaking to other cartels we're getting brand-new images from kinney county, texas. a 5-year-old girl rescued from the trunk of a smugglers car. the sheriff tells me the drive and passenger from from houston

and face child endangerment charges as well as human smuggling. all a part of this crisis. those lawmakers got to see firsthand the crisis. >> dana: nothing like getting to see something firsthand as bill witnessed earlier this week in arizona. thank you, griff. >> my granddaughter, she had to go to the emergency room. she had sore throat, her eyes were burning. >> i was at a town hall in ohio last night and there are people that say they have chemical pneumonia, people that say that they have wells they know are contaminated and trying to call and have not been able to get it sampled yet. >> bill: those two were with us last hour reporting troubling health issues. the company that operates the train was a last-minute no show at the town hall. the statement from norfolk southern quote. we know that many are rightfully

angry and frustrated now. unfortunately after consulting with community leaders we have become increasingly concerned about the growing physical threat to our employees and members of the community around this event stemming from the participation of outside parties. we will not be in attend ants this morning. here is erin brokovich. welcome back to our program. i saw you on another show. if you feel it, it is you, it is real. don't be talked out of it. more or less is a paraphrase of what you had to say. they have have fear because they don't know what's in the air or the water. reports of headaches 24 hours a day. how do you read this based on the experience you've had on this for decades now? >> i don't think i've ever seen anything like this in the 30

years i've done this. the lack of information, the lack of transparency, the confusion, not actually seeing any datasets. what are you looking for? what are you not looking for? my gosh, february 3rd we have a large train derailment carrying toxic chemicals. by the 4th or 5th of february these people are being evacuated, shelter in place. it is danger. they don't know where to go. they are confused. people are emailing me what's happening and then it's all clear, safe to come home. second thought. the water is contaminated. now it is not. it is like are you kidding? i feel so much for this community and even watching before i came on some of the residents. they've been reporting since this happened. their lips are turning blue, tongues are tingling, sore throats, cats are dead. birds are dead. fish are dead. what is happening out there? i have never seen anything like this in my entire career where

there is no information, almost a shutdown and it is frustrating. it is wrong, and i really am concerned about that community and the answers they aren't getting. if we don't give it to them they'll never be able to protect their health and welfare. >> bill: some information is going out in ohio the state's epa said the latest tests show five wells that supply the village's drinking water are free from contaminants. that's what they are being told. the governor said yesterday if it makes you more comfortable drink water from a bottle. how do you read both of those? >> a very confusing message. what i would like to see is the state epa produce and put online some of those test results. what are you looking for? the reason i'm bringing this up. we talked about vinyl chloride. i'm concerned about a chemical called boutall acolyte.

the second chemical they talk about that happened in the spill. what concerns me about that, they have detected it outside of the containment zone but that chemical has an additive. that additive is benzene. i would like to ask them the question are you looking for benzene? what are you prepared for? what are you finding? and what are the actual levels? we have yet to see that. so again this continues to be an unfolding story full of nothing but contradictions and i think it's horrible to do that to these people who don't know the outcome of their health and safety. >> bill: last thing year a few seconds left. in hindsight i know it's 2020. what would you have done, what should officials have done. do you keep them out for a sustained period of time? would that have been the appropriate answer? >> i think unfortunately with a spill like this and when you

have an evacuation, it is incumbent upon them before they ever let the community back, to be absolutely certain it is safe. to clear all the land. look at the soil, look at the water, look at the air. we still have fallout from the fire. that wasn't done. in a situation like this, it is always better to step up front and say i'm not certain, but in an abundance of caution for your safety i know you won't like it, we need you to stay out of the area a little bit longer. we just aren't getting the information that is giving any of us assurance that it was, in fact, or is at this moment safe. >> bill: we wait for that. erin brokovich. nice to see you. thank you for coming on our program today and hopefully we get answers sooner rather than later. >> dana: republican presidential candidate nikki haley calling for mandatory competency tests for politicians over 75. is age just a number when it comes to the white house?

>> bill: now the rise of artificial intelligence and the bizarre behavior of popular a.i. chatbots raising some alarms and

questions about who is behind the software that powers the platform. lydia hu is on that story. the future is here, lydia. >> the future is here. chat gbt is what we're talking about developed by a san francisco-based company called open ai. they formed in 2015 when sam altmann teamed up with elon musk and linkedin co-founder reid hoffman to get artificial intelligence that benefits humanity. there are now accusations of left leaning political bias. according to the daily mail when asked to write a poem praising former president donald trump the chatbot refused. on the other hand was able to generate admiration for president joe biden. then when asked to write a ten paragraph essay in support of fossil fuels it said i cannot fulfill this request it goes

against my programming to promote fossil fuels. there are problems with the a.i. technology tweeting we know that chatgpt has shortcomings around bias and are working to improve it. but that statement comes as evidence comes to light of altmann's history of political donations supporting democratic candidates nationally and locally. he has donated more than 1 million to democratic candidates and organizations. the donations fall in line with the trend in silicon valley, too. political donations from employees of the most influential tech firms overwhelmingly supported democratic candidates for congress during the mid-terms. the findings are concerning because microsoft recently acquired chat gbt to incorporate it into search functions. it could potentially take bias from just generating an essay on demand to possibly weaving it

into our internet search results. >> bill: more to come. lydia. i know you know that's the case. thank you from fox business. >> in the america i see, the from politician will finally retire. we'll have term limits for congress. [cheers and applause] and mandatory mental competency tests for politicians over 75 years old. >> dana: newly declared presidential candidate nikki haley sparking debate with those comments. don lemon weighed in and here is what he said. >> this talk about age makes me uncomfortable. i think it's the wrong road to go down. politicians are something not in their prime. nikki haley isn't in their prime, sorry. women are in their prime 20s, 30s, 40s. >> prime for what? >> it depends.

if you google when is a woman in her prime it will say 20s, 30s and 40s. >> dana: here to talk about it kennedy and rich lowry. i saw that. surely that's not what he said. it is what he said. >> thank you for that, don lemon. what he is saying is a woman can't be president unless she is hot, unless she is ruled by her distracting libido. nikki haley is 51 years old. she is in her intellectual and power prime and hit the sweet spot politically for women and a lot of people who are fans of her policies. we did have a president who was distracted by his libido, bill clinton. it destroyed his reputation and almost ended his second term prematurely. don lemon can suck lemon when he wades into water like this because he is way over his head. >> bill: rich, are you contributing to the shovel

contribution? >> we've all been there. you can see it in his eyes. he starts to squirm. i said it. it won't go well. >> dana: then he says google it. we did. we asked chatbot. and this is the answer and why people won't like it. as an a.i. language model it is not appropriate to make any assumptions or generalize about individuals based on their gender. it is important to recognize every person is unique and the concept of a prime can vary greatly such as physical health, lifestyle, goals and aspirations. that's kind of a b.s. answer. kennedy, he just helped her. don lemon helped nikki haley. now we're talking about this. i wonder if the women of the view. -- i do wonder if the women of the view, will they defend her? >> also they should take those mental competency tests that

nikki haley was talking about. i think we should have psych tests for anyone who wants to be president. if you want to be the most powerful person in the world you might have a screw loose. >> this vindicates her decision to get in early. generating attention if she wouldn't if she was number ten in a 10-person field. the attacks have been so personal and always after her over her name. nikki saying she made it up because she doesn't want to be an indian american. it is her middle name. >> dana: that's what she was called as a kid. i wonder about that. age is a sensitive issue. everybody ages at a different rate and the questions are about biden would be 80. president trump would be 76 if -- he is running again. so then there is a question of competency tests. is that something you would support or is it going too far? >> wholeheartedly. i want competency tests and tests for everything. acuity, heart, range, i want it

all and i want transparency. we don't know enough about president biden's health mental, fphysical and otherwise. for someone with that much power we deserve to know. there is a vast difference between individuals who happen to be the same age and we deserve to know what they are working with. what they are working with serves us. they work for us. >> bill: he is getting a physical today. >> dana: as we speak. >> the eye test, right? an nbc poll had 28% he had the physical and mental ayinde -- a cute tee. dianne feinstein ran again and she is too confused to serve as a united states senator. that's the kind of thing you could be facing with a biden second term. >> bill: lineup for the psych
