>> good morning, steve, ainsley, brian, the authorities say the americans were held and tortured in that red wooden shack and that man courting it has been arrested and charged in the kidnapping. he is a 24-year-old mexican national identified as jose guadalupe. you see here in the small, red shack where they were held, a rule part of eastern mexico where they believed americans ln by the cartel for haitians acting as road drug mules. they are also learning shaeed woodard and zindell brown were dead by the time they got there and latavia washington mcgee and eric james williams back in the u.s. with a gunshot wound to the leg. but his mother giving this update, she's doing okay, she was crying. she watched two of them die in

front of her. but this photo from the scene shows mcgee in the back of ambulance and williams transported back to the u.s. border and then taken to a texas hospital once in the u.s. it comes after the kidnapping and if you have not seen it, it is disturbing and caught on camera showing the moments when the victims were dragged in the back of a pickup truck. this expects with guns and bullet proof. this finances taking center stage at the white house has peter doocy pressed for answers. watch. >> cartels kill americans on the side of the border for drugs. now they are killing americans on the other side of the border with guns. why is president biden so comfortable with cartels operating so close to the u.s.? >> we are seizing fentanyl at record historical levels because of what the president has done to secure our border.

>> but the violence has picked up. now come americans are being slaughtered with president biden taking the same approach with al qaeda or isis operating across the border from an american city? >> the president takes this very seriously. the fbi and other agents have been on top of the this spirit >> steve: in the state department, they take the pilot seriously iterating it has listed six mexican states including where this happened do not travel alert ane strongest advisory of the department can issue for places in mexico. >> ainsley: thank you so much, griff, you think about spring break around the corner and a lot of people going to mexico. the government is saying be very careful and avoid the areas where you will see the cartel hot spots. there is information online. they have listed cities of where you should not go. the travel agents --

>> steve: this is one of them. >> ainsley: travel agents reporting post-pandemic and bookings are similar to pre2020 when it comes to going to booking vacations in mexico. >> brian: to me, it blows me away there is not firm reaction from the white house, from the state department. there is not a june joint statement from mexican and u.s. authorities. we are not seeing it at all and so many questions. experts say the law enforcement reveals in the dallas morning news that they believe it was a mistaken identity and that they thought perhaps the kidnappers have mistaken the foursome for haitian smugglers. the cartel disappeared five days ago as you know. but once they found them, once you make a mistake, you don't keep those survivors in a shed and watch the other two diet in front of you. so, i have problems with mistaken identity thing.

because carolina plates in a white minivan is not usually the way cartel's role or haitian drugs people roll. >> steve: apparently nobody saw it for a while because the mexican authorities, apparently, did not see this with their own two eyes. they read about it online. they went and investigated, and they saw and realized american plates on the white minivan. the story is perhaps one of these, like the golf cartel that operates in that area thought those were haitian smugglers in a similar fan. next thing you know, two of those people are dead appeared the mexicans actually use surveillance cameras in the area to figure out the number of cartel vehicles involved in the attack. ultimately, this is what it comes down to. because right now so much emphasis on trying to figure out what had happened to those poor americans in the minivan, what

do the mexicans do? suddenly, out of nowhere, they found the one guy. you know there is a whole bunch of people involved, but they got the one guy. because now that they have the americans and they will be coming back after they recuperate out of a brownsville hospital, nobody will be talking about the story. the cartel was in the clear. nonetheless, ainsley, you brought this up, a lot of people traveling to new mexico for spring break and other purposes, here is what chris olivera said earlier on "fox & friends" about whether you are thinking about doing it. essentially, don't. >> one thing we are telling people wanting to travel to mexico is to restrain from traveling to mexico. it is too dangerous. there was too much crime as far as the cartels operating and especially matamoros, mexico and the cartel that controls that area. but you have smaller groups,

smaller groups of enforcement come enforcement groups that pretty much carry out attacks here they will do kidnappings ar the cartels. within those groups, you can have several groups fighting with each other. because of that, the violence has increased in that area. you talk about that haitians, one thing there are thousands of haitians in mexico and they settle in mexico right now. those cartel groups are recruiting patients for organized crime. because of the outcome of individuals that travel are taking haitians and chased down and gunned down by these cartel members. >> ainsley: also in other news, let's go to virginia, virginia school district fairfax county, you know it well, it is always in the news. it is in the news again for something you are not going to like. what they ever learn? the eighth grade students at cooper middle school mclean, virginia, they were sent letters on february 21st home to their

parents that said if your child is considering college, we have prep courses for them here at courses where they will learn those academic counseling and experiences for teaching and completing college and scholarship applications. the senate said, it is only available for black and hispanic students. if you are asian or white, you are not to go. >> steve: brian. >> brian: this is pretty unbelievable and i know prepared about the eighth grader in if you are a minority first generation, there will be special access for you. this is also fairfax county with news, i'm stunned by this, the recipient of $1 million of grants from china. why is china giving money to fairfax county public schools? how could that be in their interest or our interest? we thought colleges was bad, they are buying up boarding

schools and charter schools. but now they are contributing to grade school spirit and two high schools. this is absolutely insane. so you have a subplot to a bigger story, and that is what is going on in fairfax? the scholarships, they earned it and never told about it. they want to make money towards college but never got it and they are still trying to make amends with that, steve. >> steve: we need to know what they are using the money for. if it is a goodwill thing and a pilot program where he sister school in china and china has a sister school in the united states, we need to know more details but back to the first story regarding the fact that it is clearly discriminatory what they are doing regarding the college prep program, we have carol markowitz and bethany mantell, they have written a book. it is all about school. here they are talking about how fairfax county is banning whites

and asians from this particular program. >> the teachers kids at this very young age that they should be looking for race instead of my right spear that is a message that is toxic for white student. it is toxic for asian students and all american spirits because they are trying to turn them into leftist activists for their causes. and what they learned his children are unassailable. whatever lunch you want and adults cannot argue with them. speak what they want turn children into sort of their woke world on child innocence and resilience. they want to make them hyper focused on race. this is hyper focused and so toxic not only to their mental health and emotional help but academic success. >> steve: , xp went this has all exposed in glenn youngkin one because of this in a purple state. he's doing something about this

but the state of the state yesterday in florida given by governor desantis, what role do you think school is a priority list in terms of the curriculum we should care about when it comes to the state? >> not just for the state, but for this date, the governor is doing a great job bringing attention to what's going on in our schools. and parents out there that say nothing is going on. hiding underneath the blankets, i encourage you from eating out underneath those blankets and go into your local schools to see what is going on. in those libraries, there are pornographic -- >> brian: so when not banning books -- >> he is about education. i have a grandson and we are about education. >> brian: thank you very much. i didn't mean to get you pumped up. are you concerned about curriculum what's going on? in what way? >> my grandkids are growing up
