sit where frank sinatra sat, sorry, frank, i love your music. but i will agree with michelle to not sit by the kitchen. my mom always used to say don't sit by the kitchen but i am with her that door banging i would pay not to not be there. >> i think the best seat in the house is right at home in your dining room table with her family around you. thanks to everyone for watching, don't forget to dvr the show and here is "america reports." >> john: emily, thank you and we start with fox news alert we are following two breaking stories this afternoon at any moment the writers charged with domestic terrorism and alanna are expected to appear in court while south of the border mexico's government is now confirming the two of the four americans kidnapped have been found dead. ally of john roberts in washington, good tuesday to you. >> sandra: good tuesday to you i am gillian turner in for sandor today, this is america reports. so the white house and state department will hold briefings this afternoon, they

will face some tough questioning over the murders of these two americans. >> john: our senior national correspondent william la jeunesse has been following the stories has latest breaking details from our los angeles newsroom, two deadwood foreign total what about the others? >> john, folks found live tv a mcgee alive in a small house outside of moaned a morose and eric williams who had a serious wound in his left leg. they are friends of zindel brown woodward were found dead in a field nearby. we found a convoy of mexican ambulances and suvs headed arriving in brownsville, texas, where the four friends will or reached brought to a hospital we are told, met mexican president says one suspect is in custody d they are expecting for others. on capitol hill some lawmakers want the u.s. military to get actively involved in hunting and

dismantling the cartels with or without mexico's permission, moments ago attorney general merrick garland spoke without addressing eight military escalation. >> the cartels who were response will for the deaths of americans that we are fighting as hard as possible the dea and fbi are doing every thing possible to dismantle and disrupt and ultimately prosecute the leaders of the cartels and the entire networks that they depend on. >> now how this became public was unusual. two hours ago, manwell lopez open door was in the middle of a press conference one the governor called, men will put it on the speaker allowing everyone to hear the word of the deceased americans. this follows a course friday's attack where a mcgee and you can see her here alive, she will be taken on into the bed of that truck right there. at the other three appear dead or wounded as they are dragged across the pavement and tossed

into the pickup as well. now family and south carolina say mcgee, mother of six, had returned to mexico for a second medical procedure, a tummy tuck. a surgery that costs thousands less in my school. apparently the group was mistaken for being part of a rival gang and caught in a gun battle. >> there are certain parts of my score if you traveled to with the ongoing cartel wars in the war with the mixing government that these cartels are having that you just shouldn't go to as an american. >> there is obviously, john, going to be a debrief and then what happens with our relations with mexico and how they are dealing with the cartels taking over power in that country is yet to be seen, back to. >> john: being congress to do something that would potentially put forward an authorization for the use of military force in cartels, we will see where that goes, william, thank you perry will get more on this coming up, victor avila and his partner

hymie's ibarra in 2011 were misn for a rival cartel and when they were on the road betstomach monterey and mexico city. when they were shot at you survivhispartner was killed bute survived. more and with china's well. >> gillian: to talk about as well, a very newsy day. in atlanta the writers are said to appear in front of a judge any moment now. charged with domestic terrorism, and because of the new police facility. two of the 23 are from georgia and the rest are out-of-state and some of which from mckenna and france perry we go to charles watson and the atlanta bureau. good afternoon, charles. >> hey, good afternoon, jillian

perry and most if not all the protesters who are charged with domestic terrorism and that alleged role in attack on police are expected in cab county georgia and we know their identities they shouldest release from the atlanta police department, nearly everyone is from out of state as you mentioned including two from canada and france, 1 of 2 georgia residents were arrested being identified as thomas webb jurgens a lawyer for the southern poverty law center, the nonprofit legal advocacy organization come stomach said he was at the sight of the cop city attack as a legal observer on behalf of the national lawyers guild. and you can see here two people wearing green hats that resemble with the national lawyers guild is known to have their legal observers where when they send them out to those sites. and a statement that southern property law center said in part "the employee is an experienced legal observer and their arrest

is not evidence of any crime, but a heavy-handed law enforcement against protesters in this new aerial video from the atlanta police you can see a large group of protesters enter the site of atlanta's $90 million public safety facility within moments to see protesters set fire to what appears to be a vehicle or construction equipment, several run toward a gate, and begin throwing rocks and fireworks narrowly missing officers as they struggle to secure a chain-link fence. authorities say the group came from a nearby music festival and that the attack was coordinated. >> this is a national network, an international group of people, that are organized to come to our state to undermine a public safety training center. >> meantime anti-cop city activists are calling for charges to be dropped against those arrested. they say police arbitrarily

detained and arrested people who had no connection to the violence. the atlanta solidarity fund is saying as much of the same and is asking for donations as the organization says it is committed to providing bail assistance and legal representation for everyone involved. gillian, we've been keeping an eye on court, it has not started yet from as far as we know, but we will keep an eye on things to see if we can weed out any developments and we will send it back to you for naught. >> gillian: we will take everyone there as soon as we get any footage out of the courtroom. charles, thank you so much, appreciated. john? >> john: gillian let's forget trey gowdy, also the author of the book "start, stay, or leave, the art of decision-making" try we will see these 23 suspects via zoom before a magistrate sometime the next few minutes we believe. of them only two are from the atlanta area. that includes thomas webb jurgens who is a were presented from the southern poverty law

center, he is charged with domestic terrorism and most of the others are from out of the area come out of state, out of the country, france and canada are two of the main countries. are these professional agitators? >> they didn't look very professional to me in their mug shots. they look like a bunch of spoiled brats. but you put your finger on it, they are not from georgia which means what? they had to travel in interstate commerce to get to georgia which means where is the department of justice? where is merrick garland? where as united states attorney's office? i mean a molotov cocktail is an unregistered explosive device. our sin can be federal crime. they are traveling interstate commerce which is an element of a federal offense and they are doing other crimes, so where is the department of justice? >> left-wing groups are offering to help those in one of those iy

fund which tweeted as always we are committed to providing legal assistance and bail assistance to everyone arrested protesting perry we are already correlating a network of lawyers to respond, please donate, solidarity means no one faces repression alone. these suspects aren't checked on my charged with protest, there'd charged with domestic terrorism so this organization is basically supporting domestic terrorism. >> yeah, i have a solution for you. they are a flight risk. i mean they have no ties to georgia. some of them are from canada. only two are from georgia. so if you are a flight risk, maybe you don't get fined. to raise the money you want. but if you don't have bond, this thing would be taken more seriously if it were not gbin state law enforcement that was leveling the charges if it was the feds. i mean we know merrick garland doesn't like domestic terrorism, he said that when some parents got together in virginia.

he never misses a chance to do something about what he considers right wing extremism, so how about this? here's everything, john, that i don't get. for years and years the left has been telling us we need more training for law enforcement. we need more de-escalation training. we need to train them on proper use of force and here you have a training facility. that's what this is. a training facility. and these spoiled brats want to firebomb it. so publish their names of anyone who donates money to get these spoiled brat anarchists out of jail, published the names of the people who think it's a good idea to have them back out on the streets. >> john: is not just a police training facility is for other first responders, firefighters and ambulance workers as well. so protesters in part are citing environmental concerns that by building this thing you're going to tear down a forest, destroy the environment. but this is a site that it is

ultimately being used over the decades as the original atlanta police academy, an explosive ordnance disposal site, and the atlanta prison farm and landfill. the $90 million plans for this facility include restoring and protecting hundreds of acres of green space. what to say about the environmental argument here? >> i would say two things. if you're really, really concerned about the land, bite yourself, and that way you can control what happens to it. the other thing that is a total non sequitur's we are so concerned about damage to the environment that we are going to throw molotov cocktails at actual human beings. so we are really, really concerned about pine trees, but we are going to set stuff on fire and jeopardize the health and the safety of actual people. i am sure there is someone out there who follows that logic, but it would not be me. >> john: we will watch the court to see when they appear

before the magistrate via zoom, trey gowdy always good to catch up with you and get your thoughts, thank you. >> you too. >> gillian: take a look at this, pretty terrifying scene on a united airlines flight. passengers ended together to restrain a man who was threatening the crew. what he allegedly tried to do before he was taken down. >> john: and president biden is beefing up his campaign war chest as he gears up to announce his reelection bid to. when is he going to make it official? our political panel richard fowler and garrett eventually bring it down coming up next. ♪ ♪ out home loan from newday. pay off your high-rate credit cards. pay yourself cash. okay everyone, our mission is complete balanced nutrition. together we support immune function.

>> gillian: president biden is traveling to raise campaign funds, according to politico this is him and await formally announcing his election bid, let's bring in richard fowler and garrett the venter a former senior advisor to the senate committee let's start with you, rich.

>> good to s see you, gillian. >> gillian: he is the vice president on trail, everyone is raising money, this is the soft launch, right? of a it that officially? >> richard: i think we need to wait for signals on the biden campaign and by the white house. i think over the next couple of weeks is the president is going out there selling an extension of his state of the union address. and here is the privilege the president has in this moment. with the democratic primary calendar putting south carolina and georgia first, remember south carolina is where joe biden sort of got the nomination to begin with and georgia is a place where he is very popular. it is fairly likely the president can delay his announcement a little bit later, one he is the incumbent and two he is having a new primary map favoring him over any other potential democratic nominee and right now there is only one announced and i think there is a very low chance as much as i like mary williamson that she will be the nominee. >> gillian: garrett it is interesting because republicans say he is dragging his feet with

his announcement, but the white house says why would he rush? i mean he has the full backing of the party apparatus from the dnc to the dccc to make moderate democrats all the way to the far left, folks like bernie sanders and aoc are behind him. everybody it seems and their mother has pledged in the democratic party that they will not run against him. so, why should he feel rushed? >> garrett: i don't think i have any doubt that joe biden will end up running for president. i don't the guy have any doubt that he will probably very likely be there nominee. i agree with richard on that. i think part of the reason for the delay here there are two interesting factoids one is fox news poll you released recently here shows over 50% of democrats don't want him to run again. >> gillian: let's pull that u up. sorry to interrupt, garrett. it was shown that 37% of dems want biden to stay in the presidency, 53% want to see someone else. >> garrett: correct and if you have that with your own base is

a very tough place to start a recipe for disaster when they say you shouldn't be our guide at the problem. when you look at the general electorate, you see he is underwater by 11 points in the same poll. you can't find a poll over the last year that shows joe biden and positive numbers. people disapprove of how he has angled inflation and the border, they disapprove how he handled the ohio train crash which has been a very tragic thing obviously. they disapprove how a lot of times he has handled foreign poverty so my policy as well whether the war in ukraine's oaks massive problems going into 2044 if you pair that with his likely republican challenger donald trump you see morning consult come out with a pole today saying trump is a 53% in his field, up 20 on ron desantis and nikki haley and the same poll shows him defeating joe biden so joe biden whether he announces today or tomorrow or in a few months has a very grim outlook whether it's the economy, crime, or a number of other issues. >> gillian: richard is going to say how to get ahead of it

but it's too late to get ahead of it. how do you run when you are up against those kinds of numbers 53% of your own party don't want to see you stay in office? >> richard: look, i think the president has some work to do in convincing democrats he's the right nominee but when you look at some of these national polls potential trump, biden matchups, it's worth pointing out that we are a country ruled by electoral college so it matters less on nationwide polling and how will joe biden do in the states that matter? pennsylvania, michigan, wisconsin, if you zero in on both pennsylvania and michigan, what you find is the electorate there seems very much against trump in this moment and against trump backed candidates. you know gretchen whitmer won pretty handily there and marmot lost in pennsylvania so with that being said it's way too early to talk about this part of it, but i think it's very likely if it is a rematch between trump and biden it will come down to three states and in many of

those states biden probably has a bit of an edge. >> gillian: garrett, final thoughts to hear. you could say, you know, if the president was doing so well and only three states were up for grabs he wouldn't be so busy trying to reshape the calendar and reshape the map. >> garrett: i agree. again, we do have problems as the incumbent president and over half your party doesn't want you to run again. also voters in pennsylvania and michigan, voters in wisconsin, they don't like 8% inflation, they don't like gas prices being up at $6 a gallon. they don't like crime or what is happening at the board of. >> gas prices are not $6 a gallon. >> garrett: they've been up to 9% at $6 a gallon. >> richard: right now the average price is $3 and inflation is at 6%. >> garrett: which are both higher than they were when president biden entered office originally. to finish my point, richard you had time to talk i want to finish my point which is when you have 50% of democrats who

don't want to run again, look at the state struggling with inflation recent polling has a negative 50% and approval rating that is not a recipe of success in 2024. >> gillian: john and we have to leave it there i appreciate you. >> richard: good to be with you. >> garrett: good to see you, gillian, take care. >> john: warning military conflict with the united states is inevitable unless president biden changes course on taiwan. so the pentagon are they taking necessary steps to prepare for battle? special report anchor bret baier is here to weigh in. >> gillian: plus karine jean-pierre said to take the podium just a moment. this comes after two americans were murdered according to mexican officials in a mexico border town notorious for cartel violence. how is this tragic incident going to impact bilateral relations between the u.s. and mexican governments? we will talk about it the former federal agent who was ambushed himself by a cartel while on the

job. retire special agent joins us coming up next. >> they will see people crossing in united states as well if we are not careful. i recommend we take the fight to the cartel and use extreme prejudice. of extreme prejudice because they are killing americans. ♪vetehome ♪ car loans can be e and the payments high. consolidate that car loan into a newday home loan and save hundreds every month. ♪ i'm gonna hold you forever... ♪ ♪ i'll be there... ♪ ♪ you don't... ♪ ♪ you don't have to worry... ♪ hi, i'm lauren, i lost 67 pounds on golo.

mexico town that is known as a hot zone of cartel warfare. let's bring in victor avila a retired ice special agent with homeland security investigations. stories like this are personal for him after he survived and ambushed by cartel members ten years ago. more than ten years ago. his partner families apart did not survive. victor, this is said to be a case potentially of mistaken identity. which, the person who led the attack against you and jamie the para was a case of identity but it would doesn't make it less deadly. >> it doesn't, john, and my heart goes out to the families of these victims and there is also a mexican woman killed by a stray bullet and this is what i want your 12 years ago in mexico with my partners in mexico.

i want to say about this case of identity, the cartel see a lot of different things the way we see it of vehicle in their trip they don't recognize may be a threat for them and they respond with gunfire who those individuals in that vehicle are and that's what i think happened here. they did not recognize they opened fire and that's why they took these bodies which is very awkward, you know? they have no regard for human life and they i think they realize they were american they were trying to cover summing up. >> john: i remember after jamie was killed i went with derek maltz who was in dea operations as they were conducting reparations for jamie's murder. he showed me photographs of cartel violence that still to this day 11 years or 12 years

later are sticking in my mind. so when you say these people have no regard for human life, that is almost an understatement. when you consider the the brutality of what it is they do. and how they shoot without asking. and what that means, what the implications are for americans who may be crossing the border because spring break is coming up. and a former sheriff was mentioning on "american newsroom" this morning and they go to san pedro texas which is a work across the bridge into this very area where these people were killed. >> absolutely and i'm very familiar with that area i've been there many, many times myself. that's why the state department puts out these alerts and it's important for americans to pay attention to these alerts while traveling in new mexico because you may be okay at a resort, but you have to understand that the

cartels control mexico. they have physical control of many, many parts. i would say 40% of the country. but the parts that are not physically controlled, they are controlled by their influence and corruption. that spreads all the way to the resorts as well. you need to understand that if you travel into mexico, the risk is very high. and unfortunately we saw an example of that with these americans being killed. and i can't tell people not to mexico dumb i traveled to mexico, but you have to understand you are going into a war zone. >> john: what is interesting to note is cancun international airport since 2019 has been the fastest growing airport in terms of traffic in the entire world. here is what texas senator john cornyn set about traveling to mexico on our program yesterday, listen end. >> it is not safe any longer and kidnappings are fairly frequent. the kidnappers will keep you until the atm machine goes past

midnight so you can make two separate withdrawals to pay the ransom to gain your freedom. as shocking as this is, it is not completely surprising. >> we have two things at work we have cartel violence where it may be mistaken identity as you pointed out an unfamiliar vehicle in their territory but then their idea of kidnapping on a small scale just to get you to go to the atm and bill yourself out. when you look at places like cancun and the whole riviera and quiet show they are to in the west coast and all of these people, thousands of people are going to be going there and i went to nuevo viar to we monthso for thanksgiving, what's the risk for growing there? >> they should really consider it but again, they need to understand that the reason the resorts are safe is not because the mexican government and the mexican police want them that way.

it's because the cartels keep them safe because the cartels want the tourists to come to continue to push their drugs and of their illicit activities of human done my such in those areas as well. as we see our college age kids go to spring break, to me i wouldn't let my 18-year-old son or 22-year-old daughter go there, that's for sure. but i may know little more what is happening on the ground. it's the risk that is just so high and unprintable. many, many people tell me i went here or there and it was fine and it's great, you can go a thousand times back but it only takes that one time to be a victim at the hands of the cartel and it's too late at that point. >> john: i remember way more than a decade ago my older son went to tijuana for spring break and was robbed and forced to go to the atm and take out money. that was a long time ago.

so, things have gotten worse since then. victor, it is great to talk to you again. we hope you can get justice for your deceased partner, jaime zapara, i appreciate you. >> thank you for having me, j john. >> every week we see purchasing power of our dollar continued to decline. the lack of workforce and supply chain issues combined with inflationary pressures have made this economy the most difficult economy i have dealt with in over four decades. >> all of these negative impacts have caused some ranchers to sell their entire herd and many have indicated they will not restock any time soon if at all. >> we don't want special treatment. we just want a level playing field. >> gillian: those are folks in uconn oklahoma here today where they have a field hearing, americans in the nation's heartland say how the economy is affecting them as stubbornly high prices hit farmers and small businesses and families. chad live on capitol hill,

white house and republicans what do they hope to accomplish with these field hearings? >> well, gillian, the goal is to highlight problems in the economy the g.o.p. says are because of president biden and get outside the bellwave to try to show they care about everyday americans. >> over the last decade 92 farms in oklahoma went bankrupt. president biden and his budget this week will want to make it even harder to pass the family farm down to the next gene generation. he wants to repeal stepped up basis and increase the death tax making family from like piggy banks. >> many say it was president biden on the working class which is passing covert aid and what democrats call the inflation reduction act. >> president biden and congressional democrats our agenda is on building the economy from the bottom out.

it means that they've already delivered for oklahoma and most importantly for its workers. >> this field hearing comes as jerome powell is inside the bellwave before the banking committee, powell has hiked interest rates to tame inflation. the g.o.p. blames inflation on the spending bills under president biden. >> we have seen the most radical approach to a problem that was in our rearview mirror being used as a trojan horse to bring in a level of socialism and spending that our nation has not seen in my lifetime. >> now scott says if democrats kept spending and checked the fed would not need to jack up interest rates. gillian? >> gillian: wright, chad pilgrim on capitol hill this afternoon for us, thank you. the postcode would go economy is facing a whole lot of companies to upend their operations entirely, coming up next will hear from two small business owners that just finished

organizations including mexican drug cartels and human strugglers. smugglers, pardon me. in the past few months biden signed with expending authorities that they will penalize cartel organizations and those that control or enable them.

we have imposed powerful new sanctions against cartel organizations in recent weeks. we remain committed to applying the full weight of our efforts and resources to counter them. right now our immediate concerns are for the safe return of our citizens, the health and well-being of those who survived this attack, and the support which must be rendered to the families of those who need it. now, i want to move on to the news we put out this morning. as you know, president biden put forward his plan to protect and strengthen medicare by extending it for another generation. the president's budget does this without cutting any benefits. in fact, he lowers costs for seniors with lower out-of-pocket costs for drugs, a $2 cap on cost-sharing for generic drugs for chronic conditions and lower behavioral health care costs as well. instead of cutting benefits as

maga republicans say the wealthy will hopefully pay their fair share. the president is presupposing to do the phone. increase the medicare tax rate on income above $40,000, close loopholes $400,000, close loopholes with more prescription drugs. the present would not raise taxes on anyone making less than $400,000. $400,000 a year. he will not cut benefits for any seniors but he will make sure medicare is there for people who earned it through their work. hard work. also as you saw this morning we announced that president biden and first lady joe biden will host president and first lady of the republic of korea for a state visit in the united states. the visit will include a state dinner, we will be the second state visit of the biden administration, the biden harrison demonstration under under present biden we have

taken the u.s. are okay partnership to unprecedented heights in a way that benefits our economies and our people and strengthens deterrence and end pacific region. for example the rok has invested tens of billions of dollars into the united states. these are investments that will bring our country, our trico countries even closer together, help strengthen our supply chains and give our economies a competitive edge. we have strengthened our defense and secure to partnerships by laterally advanced to deterrence and peace across the oedipus of experience we are supporting rok as they worked to increase cooperation amongst each other effectively strengthening the u.s. are okay japan trilateral partnership. united states rok alliance more than security partnerships it has grown to a truly global and future oriented alliance. or country also holds strong people to people ties the united states as a home to a large number of americans with korean heritage.

our country's more, many cultural interests including in music, television, and movies. the state visit will only strengthen or deepen u.s. rok ties and we are looking forward to celebrate in the 70 anniversary of the u.s. rok alliance of the white house. i also wanted to say a few words on the a continued attacks from republican officials on women's health care like we saw today earlier today. were public and state lettuce fighters in florida proposed today a bill that would ban abortion before many women know if they are even pregnant. virtually eliminating a woman's right to make health care decisions about her own body. this ban would prevent not just the nearly 4 million florida women of reproductive age from accessing abortion care after dome ipo for six weeks but also the nearly 15 million women who live in states across the south

with abortion bands and would no longer be able to rely on florida as an option to access care. we know these bands are already having a devastating impact on women's health. in a case filed today in texas we unfortunately heard devastating first-hand accounts of women's lives almost lost after they were denied the health care they needed. horrifying details of needless pain all because of extreme efforts by republican officials to take away a woman's ability to make her own health care decisions. politicians like governor desantis and abbott dysbiosis quote "freedom for all." while attacking making one's own health care decisions, their rhetoric does not come without consequent same. the stories today in 2023 in the united states of america are shameful and completely unacceptable.

like the overwhelming majority of americans, the president and the vice president believe women should be able to make health care decisions with their own doctors and families. freeport from polygonal interference, period. they are committed to protecting access to reproductive care and continuing to call on congress to restore the protections of roe v. wade in federal law. and finally i want to say a few words today about the actual date of the 58th anniversary of bloody sunday which is today. as you all know the president traveled to selma on sunday to commemorate this important day so that history can't be erased. he talked about how the continued fight for voting rights is integral to delivering economic justice and civil rights for black americans across the country. and today i wanted to highlight some of the historic against the president has made on racial equity two years into this and administration the president has in the following. that black unemployment to near

historic low, provided almost $6 billion to hbcus, lower prescription drugs and energy costs for seniors, nominated more black women to federal courts than any president before him. cut black child poverty in half and this administration is replacing lead pipes and delivering clean water across america. there is more work to be done and we understand the president understands that we need to continue fighting to finish the job. with that, colleen, do you want to kick us off? >> sure, thank you. so the president said his budget is going to extend medicare i think 25 years. can you walk us through the math a little bit on how that works? >> i will not get into dive into the math here, the president will lay out his budget as you know on thursday which will be very detailed and transparent, which is something the president said he was going to do. to make sure the american people see for themselves. >> john: we will jump out of

the briefing there but you heard earlier karine jean-pierre was offering her condolences to the family members of those who were killed in matamoros we expect we would get questions about about the briefing's ongoing metrics and very meanwhile they are set to brief after americans were kidnapped in the cartel violence we will monitor that for any breaking and president biden set to unveil a new budget this week that he says will keep medicare solving another generation we heard karine jean-pierre talk about that all while he falsely claims republicans want to get rid of medicare. florida senator rick scott has been the scapegoat many of these attacks we would get his response coming up plus bret baier, will cain, and a whole lot more coming up as america reports roles on. i can be free to do the things that i love to do. i hope when i retire someday, they say, that guy made this place a special place to come to school
