arthel: driving there too so close at a flea market. police say two sisters from a small texas border town crossed into northeastern mexico with a friend late last month. one of them spoke with her husband february 24. he says he could not reach her three days later and reported her missing. hello everyone walking "fox news live" i am arthel neville, hi erica cox hello everyone thank you for joining us. i am eric shawn. report of the missing woman, a

week after the armed abduction before other americans. they traveled there from south carolina, just across the border into northeast new mexico. the surveillance video you see appears to have the government forcing them back into the tr truck. two of the americans were later found dead, allegedly murdered at the hands of the mexican cartel. that now is apologizing for the kidnapping. two other americans thankfully are back safe here at home. cooks don't sign for the federal government to step in and take charge and actually do something about the situation. i can the question needs to be race how many more americans are we going to lose? something needs to be done for their needs to be accidents enough of the rhetoric. arthel: border state congresswoman debbie les of arizona joins us in a moment. but first bill is alive in texas where those three women were missing began the journey. bill, what more can you tell us?

>> arthel, good afternoon to you. we have learned to texas sisters both front right here where we are as well as their friend have all gone missing and mexico. they have been missing for two weeks after they crossed in late february to go sell some clothing at a flea market down there. we'll show some of their photos. take a look. 47-year-old her older sister 48-year-old marino rios and then their friend 53-year-old dora alicia. they have not been seen or heard from since the february 2024 when they first crossed into mexico. two weeks ago. you look at more photos of these women. we will explain what we know so far. pd telling us they've been in touch with the families of these women and the families right now are highly concerned these women were potentially kidnapped somewhere in mexico. they notified pd the fbi tells fox news they are aware of these

women are missing but cannot comment on the case at this moment. hemp anita's police tells they were last seen driving a green 1996 chevy silverado with texas license plates. i will explain or we know we were when this happened were take a look the women a little border town west of the mcallen area. we know they cross into mexico in the rio grande valley were heading for a city at mexico. that is southeast of the city of monterey it's about three hours south of the u.s. border. they were reportedly going there to sell clothing at a flea market. they disappeared the families had not heard from them, they have gone dark they are gone missing. texas dps is urging all texas residents do not go to mexico for any reason. it is too dangerous right now a special spring break coming up. take a listen. >> our department is urging anyone thinking about traveling to mexico especially spring breakers to avoid those areas.

right now it is too dangerous. with the increase in violence and kidnappings taking place in mexico but it's very important i cannot stress enough to those thinking about traveling to mexico especially for spring breakers at some one think we are preparing for in the coming weeks is for spring break to avoid those areas as much as possible. >> we are told right now mexican authorities are spearheading this investigation for the fbi is going to handle it on the u.s. side. we've talked to the state department they are aware of these three missing women. however their status in the united states is. whether they are residents of the united states or citizens of the united states. state department telling fox news they are aware of reports they are citizens but they cannot confirm that at this point in time. right now three women missing for two weeks, gone dark and mexico guys will send back to you. >> it's sad either way you slice

it. bill melugin live in penitas, texas, thank you. sue furthermore mix sing and mexico than you think hundreds each year the number of our fellow citizens have disappeared there is now growing. arizona congresswoman debbie lesko joins us. councilman welcome. does it surprise you the cartels have past that has supposedly been off limits when you think about this? bucks unfortunately it does not surprise me. i've gone down to the border numerous times the customs and border patrol officers that are on the ground say the mexican cartel is totally in charge of the border and the border ci cities. they either allow people to cross the border if they are getting paid, or trading girls for trafficking. or they kill them. obviously it's very dangerous to cross over into the mexican

border and some of these border cities. i agree with the texas officials who say do not travel to texas. i'm sorry don't travel to mexico right now from texas or from arizona. it is just too dangerous. as you said there's reported at least 550 americans that are still missing that went on to mexico and they are missing. the mexican citizens themselves there's over 112,000 mexican citizens that have just disappeared. they are missing. i believe president biden and the democrat border policies are incentivizing millions and millions of people from all over the world to come across our southern border. that is part of the problem. he it's basically paying the cartels. his policies are making money

for the cartels it is a sad state of affairs. >> dimension is number 12020 there were 324 americans mis missing. if we put this up now will show you this. americans missing back in 2020 that went up now as you said to 550 americans were missing. the stories are heart-wrenching. these are three of the women missing now. according to the "washington post" today, the parents of missing americans they say they do not have enough information or get enough information. let me read you, this is the parents of a 17 year old from houston saying quotes they said they could not do absolutely anything, they do not intervene and mexico issues. now we realize this is a terrible live. the parents of a 21-year-old son, they did pay a ransom. they said quote there was no movement there is just diplomatic paperwork.

she also contact the fbi but they made no progress on the case. you have parents across this country whose loved ones whose kids have gone down to mexico and disappeared. how widespread in this and what more can invited administration do to put pressure on the mexico 30 city authorities to try to get some missing americans back if they are not sadly already killed? talk so well, first of all president invited me too change his policies to secure the border. his policies so far have been an open border policy. and then when he says he's doing more things to secure the border, no he is not. but he is doing is allowing more people to come into our country when he says i will allow 38 more thousand people a month to come in illegally. that is not solving the border crisis problem. it is just increasing more people crossing the border plus the illegals. as you know we have almost

5 million people that we know that have illegally cross the southern border. another one point to known god always caught on camera or sensors but were never caught. and so it is really his policies that are leading to this problem. i totally blame the mexican drug cartels but biden's policies of incentivizing illegals to flood here 165 different countries throughout the world is what is causing this problem. and as you can see from the four that were missing, two were killed, two were recovered. our administration can do more to force the mexican government to cooperate. i would assume the mexican government would want to get their act together and keep american safety. otherwise tourism is going to down the tubes for quickset is for sure. they ministration point effect numbers are down 40%, also

saving a policies of a couple weeks ago would immediately deport people seeking asylum if they do not apply in a third country. do you think any of these policies are now getting stricter on will have an effect? do you think this will help and try and ease this? or do you think some in congress have talked about military action against the cartels, would you support that to get tougher on the cartels if they are a national security threat which they arch our country. >> biden does what he actually proposes he's going to do it which would say you are claiming asylum you are in a safe third country don't come in. that is what trump did it was the remaining mexico policy basically. but i will believe it when i see it. talk to yuma arizona officials they had been promised for a bout a year now that biden was going to close the gaps in the border fence and they haven't. it is very frustrating.

>> i'm sorry to interrupt but there are reports they are doing that. and then cap they are actually building a fence the administration is doing that now. but finally before we go, your advice to fellow americans about traveling to mexico? i mean the state apartment says six states totally off limits. i mean mexico city and other tourist areas have kidnapping and crime rate that is a state department saying that what is your advice to those who may be planning a trip across the border? x i certainly would not travel to mexico for vacation. and i would recommend all u.s. citizens do not do so until the mexican government takes control of the mexican cartels and the corruption that goes on in the government which that is been going on for years. i would recommend against traveling to mexico. eric: and said go to arizona scottsdale is beautiful.

go up to sedona it's a beautiful state congresswoman, the great state of arizona, thank you. >> thank you. >> arthel. >> or eric, thank you. well, while waiting for gop budget president biden is facing a growing number of questions on his budget proposal. he unveiled thursday. it calls for nearly $7 trillion in new spending which includes 886 billion for national defense spending. meantime the february jobs report shows a hotter than expected 311,000 jobs added. raising fears of more fed rate hikes to cool down the economy. lucas tomlinson's live at the white house. lucas, it seems that good news always comes with conditions. >> that is right. think it depends which side of the isle you're looking at this thing from, arthel. the trillions in new spending the wall street journal reports will grow the national debt by

$17 trillion. that would be about a 50% increase. to pay for president biden said is going to tax wealthy americans. >> our present federal tax system is fair, raise your hand? [laughter] i'm not joking. people making $400,000 a year don't think it's fair. just begin to pay your fair share break works let's see what is in that some of things will increase taxes on those making over $400,000 as we just for the president 842 billion in defense spending. we factor in inflation. defense spending will now be at a historical load with gdp. help poor countries hundred thousand police officers across the nation for president biden to defend the police. the white house plans to approve a massive 8 billion-dollar oil

drilling project from alaska over the objections from environmental groups for the white house is no final decision has been made. earlier this week the governor said the project and lower heating bills. >> is an unfortunate game being played between the white house, the extremist and the environmentalists that got him there. and unfortunately people of alaska and this country. you want more production to drive the prices down across the board for all americans and alaskans. it is problematic. >> is a presidential candidate joe biden said he would never approve any drilling projects across the country for oil, arthel. arthel: alright lucas tomlinson live at the white house on a cool crisp saturday afternoon, thank you lucas. support president biden said he is still deciding whether or not to send a bill or declassify information on the origins of the coronavirus for the house

yesterday, they voted unanimously to declassify that intelligence reports this after the fbi in the department of energy said the virus, yes it may have come from a lab leaked from that lab in wuhan, china per charles watson is live in atlanta home of the cdc. >> good afternoon the white house says it is reviewing this piece of legislation parts of our president biden has not really indicated which way he is leaning on this particular issue. he spoke to reporters late friday evening and said he had not really made up his mind. so right now no clear decision from the president. but a very clear decision for members of the house who overwhelmingly voted for the director of national security to release any and all information related to the origins of covid-19. it is perhaps the strongest message sent by republicans and democrats indicating americans have serious questions about where this deadly virus came from and how to prevent another

one from spreading uncontrollably in the future. >> this should be an easy vote because this is just about science progress and it looks like a duck, swims like a duck, quacks like a duck, it's probably a duck. folks, this screams like a duck. >> this is certainly a different posture for democrats in relation to 2021 when they really refused to bring this bill which is sponsored by republican senator josh hawley to the floor. it has been a point of contention also between u.s. intelligence officials who were at odds about whether this virus originated from a lab in wuhan or was passed down from an animal possibly from a wet market in wuhan. a lot of this really came to a head earlier this week after former cdc director robert redfield told lawmakers that dr. fauci denied him access to internal conversations about the origin because he sides with the

lab leak theory. dr. fauci denies the accusation. >> i did not put them or take them off. it is really disturbing that in a public hearing of a congressional hearing he makes an accusatory statement that has no basis whatsoever in reality. >> when everything is all said and done if president biden does sign this bill i will have 90 days to declassify and release the information that folks are looking for in terms of the origins of covid-19, erica. >> we should all know everything, charles thank you. >> charles and eric florida governor desantis is in iowa, he was there yesterday to promote his new book. but political spectators are reading between the lines it is first visit to the early nominating state is generating a lot of buzz about a possible run

next year. desantis could be testing the waters for match up with for president trump who is scheduled to visit iowa monday. alexandria hoff is live in washington with more details, alexandria. >> hi arthel, governor desantis had previously indicated he will not announce any decision publicly until after florida's legislative session ends in may. but there's lessening her to go before the iowa caucus which of course as a first committee's republican decider. so yesterday both the governor and former un ambassador nikki haley made stops in the state. it is the second visit iowa for nikki haley since kicking off her run for the white house. former president donald trump is scheduled to visit the state on monday. he is currently knee-deep in his third straight presidential bid and has served some clear jabs at desantis safar which even as unofficial contender is considered trumps leading rival. desantis spoke to chris yesterday in des moines and davenport in an interview fox news bryant which is going to air tonight at 8:00 p.m. he

answered this. folks worried about being find your governor get on a candidate yet? once you have a record of achievement, people can call you a name but that is not going to trump the achievement. we have built an astounding record of achievement. the best is yet to come. >> those achievements as he calls and prompted democrats to label desantis as extremists we heard that from the white house yesterday. today at desantis continues promoting his memoir the stop in nevada, arthel. folks thank you alexander half. want to let everybody know you can catch more of brian's interview with governor desantis on "one nation". that is tonight at 8:00 p.m. eastern right fox news channel. thank you. >> a podcast or fearing for her life asked for an order of protection against a man she said was stalking her and her husband. a few days later they are shot dead. more on this chilling story straight ahead.

$1 million every single second for that 10 hour. and then just one day later, yesterday, customers at the bank here in new york the loan branch here in new york were not so lucky were the cops were called on them they're told to come back on monday went all branches will reopen. customers in california were also left waiting outside the bank. take a look at the video happened after stunning announcement they lost $1.8 billion. now the bank crumbled after being forced to sell bonds at a massive loss the bank is best known for lending to the tech sector which is leaving a lot of startups in crisis mode. many of them may not be able to make payroll come monday. as one ceo talk about the difficulties for his company, take a listen to this. >> will get access to join $50000 on monday. after that trying to get access to the remaining capitol is going to take months. the reality is we cannot operate our business without accessing

stage cooper middle school from of this letter was sent to parents is literally down the road, george town pike from the cia. what this case and this letter exemplifies is this race war that has become a product of the awoke army assault on america and our children. we want to uplift. >> and went to get the pointer we have limited time. specifically what is the problem here? what is going on? what is wrong with the scenario? >> what's wrong with it is you cannot have it erased based admissions to college prep program like this. the letter it was very explicit about being targeted to black and hispanic students. the message was clear to parents of a white asian students for they even left out students of other ethnicities. that kind of discrimination is illegal and the united states. >> the deadline to apply expired

yesterday. how many asian american students have been excluded? have you spoke to the other parents has it not expired? it is my understanding application process is expired the asian american students were left out of the process, is at the crux of the matter is here? >> are fairfax county came back wanting a retraction on the story. we said we actually have asian students as great if they do in the data shows they do have student asian students the problem is when you market a program like this with this letter, or excluding people in your engagement. that is a problem. just like you said deadline has passed. they blew this marketing plan they did not clarify with the student body and with the parent that it's actually open to everyone. that is what they need to do but they need to fix this that's

what the attorney general demanding they that's what they need to do. >> i want to take a look now at what cpp can offer all have it on my screen for you. academic counseling assistance with completing scholarship applications and opportunity to visit a college and stay on their campus. try this on for size. is this designed to excludes asian american students or is it to encourage students of other races to go to college and provide the tools for college success? >> i don't think it needs to be binary. we do not need to pick one kid over the other kid. what they should have done is just opened up this program and its marketing to all kids. i can tell you as a mom who went through the school system i never heard about this program because it was not marketed to

my family. that is a problem we have opportunity especially in united states of america it is with opportunity. the problem is the activists in the awoke army who want to create a playing field in which you actually bring the top down. asian and white kids in this achievement gap with a black and hispanic kids. we have to lift all kids up we do not exclude anybody in the united states of america. that is the values of this country, is equal opportunity. talks understood. i want to give a part of the correction e-mail if you will clear formation program that was sent out this e-mail says we apologize for any language pertaining to candidacy and the link to further information on the website that were omitted from the original message is this acceptable? >> they do not say what they did

wrong. that is the problem. this is the same kind of tap dance school districts are doing all across the country. this is just emblematic of this real corruption happening in our school system. they make a mistake and then they put out a clarification but they don't tell you what they are clarifying. so call it out state explicitly. we are open for everyone to want to encourage all kids that want to go to college yes, uplift all the kids from all races, all demographics. that is what america is supposed to be about. >> you keep us posted yes or no? >> absolutely nancy drew and fairfax county. >> okay, nancy thank you so much. it is a serious issue, thank you very much take care for. >> thank you. >> all right.

arthel: russian forces during the civilians continued to withstand a brutal onslaught that has lasted seven months, even wounded soldiers are eager to return to the battlefield. chief international correspondent steve harrigan is alive with the very latest in there, steve. >> arthel, what used to be the city is pretty much disappeared after seven months of artillery fire between the two sides, 70000 people used to live in that city assault mining town but they have been going at it creating a high death toll. at this point russian forces claimed to control the eastern part of the city. it is in the center of the city

which is divided by a river which has become a kind of no man's land, a killing zone. when you talk to ukrainians they say were the biggest problem is not on the high death toll but trying to rehabilitate and heal thousands of ukrainian wounded soldiers. >> it is not unusual to see 59-year-old soldiers in ukraine, or a 59-year-old soldiers wounded by shrapnel in the back. trying to rehab and ordered to return to the front line. constantine said the hardest part was the start of the war when he was unable to protect his home and family. >> it now i've got to get back as fast as possible and write those people across the border. >> sees the scars of war every day. >> the most positive thing about this job is to help someone function again so they can be independent. >> a lot of these fighters for ukraine in their 40s, 50s, even 60s 59-year-old on the

frontline shrapnel wounds eager to get back and fight some more. because this has been an artillery battle really between the two sides the wounds these combat and c are either severe or sometimes catastrophic. arthel, back to you. arthel: it is unbelievable and it is extraordinary paid steve, thank you steve. eric. >> iran and saudi arabia announcing that they will be restoring diplomatic relations after seven years of estrangement and tensions. the deal was negotiated with the help of the guy in the middle, china. it is seen as a sign beijing growing foothold and influence in the middle east. a region where the u.s. has long been considered the dominant power broker. what is this mean for us? gordon chang senior fellow of the coming collapse of china joins us, gordon does this bolster beijing at our expense?

what's it certainly does, eric. because really china faced a dilemma. had to friend saudi arabia and iran. both of them were at each other's throats. but beijing has done, at least temporarily, has brought the two together and eliminated that dilemma for beijing. but we've got to remember beijing right now is flooding the region with weapons to ironic. those weapons are going to be used against the kingdom of saudi arabia. i think this relationship is going to again fall apart. because iran just cannot help itself up it. >> part of the deal they are not going to attack saudi arabia anymore for they sent those missiles attacking the oil production facilities you think that's not going to last? >> previous agreements iran is made similar promises, have not last. but, at the moment china has become the dominant foreign power in the region replacing the united states. president trump had the most successful middle east policy

for an american going back to at least fdr. biden so far has had the worst. with the abraham accords, president trump bought historic pres while piece to the region. but clearly right now we are seeing the united states being chased out. and we are being chased out because of policies which are totally misguided. eric: 's we get former president trump of our president mike pence was speaking on this very issue this morning in washington. he addressed iranian opposition group gathering that support the national council of resistance and iran, the largest resistance group. he talked about some of these dangers of what the administration is now doing, let's listen to part of what the vice president said. >> sanctions on revolution regard we have launched a campaign of maximum presence, with the behavior, on its own

citizens we vigorously enforce sanctions to bring iran's exports of oil to nearly zero. >> is this agreement between ironic in china and saudi arabia just the opposite of that? >> yes, it certainly is. also another significant agreement was iran and china with the 25 year strategic partnership. the chinese said they're going to invest $400 billion into iran. although they may not put that much money into it. but it really it signaled china's ability to affect outcomes in the middle east. and right now we are just in disarray. taken by surprise of this agreement. amongst saudi arabia, iran, and chided. and we really do not know what to do. countries in that region once the united states to be strong. especially in the persian gulf. but right now they have no choice but to come to a combination both iran and china.
