>> bill: it went on from there. >> dana: he doesn't answer a lot of questions. when he answers questions it's in front of the helicopter so you can't hear anything. in this regard on st. patrick's day it is typical you would answer 2 and 2. shamrock day might be different. >> bill: you could bring cameras into the oval office. >> dana: he is not going to answer questions about hunter biden today, i imagine. sir, prove me wrong. we would love to have your thoughts. all too familiar scene. smugglers on the run from police on the border sometimes with deadly results. welcome to a new hour of "america's newsroom," i'm dana perino. >> bill: good morning to you. what do i call you my lass and me laddie? i'm bill hemmer, good morning at home. chaos continues at the border. a snapshot shows nearly 2

million fentanyl pills found in the border town of tijuana known to be used by cartels as a manufacturing ground for counterfeit tablets. also this week a texas grandmother and 7-year-old granddaughter were killed in a car crash that involved human smugglers. >> dana: terror watch listen counters are on track to outpace last year's record as democrats continue to turn a blind eye to the crisis. >> bill: all 15 democratic members of the house homeland security committee boycotting that field hearing at the border. democratic senator mark kelly questioning the wisdom of that move. >> what would you say to democrats who didn't go to that hearing? >> i think it is always beneficial to go and visit a place and do it with your republican colleagues. you will get a better result. get more relevant questions from both sides. it affects the entire country. this has an impact on all 50 states. >> dana: president biden now reenacting some of his

predecessor's border policies. the left wing has outrage during the trump era and now gone silent. what is going on here? william la jeunesse has more. >> that's the irony, right in they are silent. remember biden campaigned as the anti-trump. but the same democrats who complained about immigration policy then are now missing in action. consider they criticized the wall, yet biden has agreed to fill the holes and fix the gate so the wall actually works. trump adopted title 42, biden expanded it. trump crammed migrants into detention centers and deported thousands to dangerous conditions in mexico without every seeing a judge? well, so is biden. >> president biden: they are sitting in squall or on the other side of the river. they attempt to cross into the united states unlawfully they'll be returned back to mexico. >> biden also wants asylum seekers to first get denied asylum elsewhere before applying

here. >> president biden: do not -- do not just show up at the border. stay where you are and apply legally from there. >> the first president in the history of the united states of america anybody seeking asylum has to do it in another country. that never happened before. >> biden wants to require asylum seekers enter only through the ports of entry. a flip-flop from two years ago. >> president biden: you come to the united states and make your case. if they seek asylum they can use an app on their cell phone to schedule an appointment at a port of entry and make their asylum claim there. >> now even some in the media are catching on to biden's trump-like conversion. where is the liberal outrage and grandstanding at the border? instead, silence. >> we see less theatrics and criticism from members of biden's own party on this issue. >> some democrats and activists have written to the white house with objections but no drumbeat

or denouncing about the cruel and inhumane treatment that you heard four years ago. >> dana: there is not. >> bill: one more note on senator kelly's interview with bret yesterday. he campaigned on closing the gaps in the border wall in yuma. specifically yuma in the area. as of yesterday all 11 are still open. >> dana: 11 gaps. >> bill: there is steel nearby to take the steel and put it up now if you wanted to get that done. >> dana: that's where they had the record cars they were using as atopgap. the biden administration sued them and said you can't do that. so there is nothing there. you can just walk right in. >> near the colorado river. all 11 are open. monitor it and let you know whether or not there is progress on it. pressure mounting on tiktok. the chinese app is in talks with potential buyers. that would be a big deal. multiple law enforcement agencies ramping up investigations into the data

surveillance on the platform. grady trimble is tracking that fox business live on the hill to bring us the latest. >> the f.b.i. and d.o.j. are reportedly looking into why tiktok's parent company in china bytedance spied on u.s. journalists and other americans. forbes is reporting the d.o.j. has subpoenaed information from bytedance regarding efforts by its employees to efforts u.s. journalist location information or other private user data using the tiktok app. is separate for concerning report finds tiktok is tracking you even if you deleted the app from your phone or you never had it on your phone in the first place. the report by cybersecurity firm reviewed by abc news says tiktok places trackers oh than a host of websites you visit. the data it collects is used for advertising. other tech giants like meta and google use similar trackers but the added concern with tiktok is

that the information it collects could be shared with the chinese government. as we first reported yesterday, the biden administration is telling tiktok to sell to a u.s. company or be banned. but some lawmakers say divesting from the chinese owner might not be enough. >> what the source code is originating beijing they are manipulate them for propaganda purposes. >> tiktok wants a third party, u.s. company, to oversees the all go rhythm and data in the united states. behind the scenes tiktok is talking with potential buyers like it did when president trump threatened to ban the app. >> bill: a hot week next week with that hearing on thursday. nice to see you on the hill. >> dana: house oversight committee chairman comer

identifying hali biden as the third member of the family getting money. biden family values with the money sign on the s. constitutional law attorney this is james turley. >> we'll subpoena more bank records and do everything in our ability to follow every bank. there was a lot of money that transferred from china to the bidens and what we want to know is what did china get in return? i don't think china would spend this much money on this many different members of the biden family if they weren't getting a return on their investment. >> dana: jonathan turley, is that a fair assessment? >> i think it is fair. many of us have called for an investigation into this for years. but it has really hit this wall with the democratically

controlled houses, the democrats have opposed any congressional investigation of influence peddling. influence peddling is the favorite form of corruption in washington, d.c. it is a virtual cottage industry. the biden family is really in a class on its own. they took this to an extent that even those of us who criticized influence peddling decades have never seen anything like what appears to be the case with the bidens. we are talking about millions of dollars coming from foreign interests including some with foreign intelligence connections. the media largely shut this down. it is still doing its best not to cover this. you have the media collectively holding its breath trying to hope that this somehow passes away. but it won't. the objections from the white house that you are picking on the widow of the president's deceased son is really not going

to succeed. it actually highlights the question of why she would be on a sars. why she would be listed in these international transactions. so we have to find out the extent to which the biden family benefited from these foreign sources of capital. >> bill: the argument from the other side is you are trying to prove the services were rendered. i don't know if that has been proven just yet. i don't know really where it goes. i'll let you answer that. this is a raskin statement. chairman comer's memo proved that after four years of investigations by senate and house republicans in the hunter biden they have found no connection to the president of the united states or any government official at all as of today that statement would appear to be true. where do you think that goes? >> well, that's part and parcel what we've seen before. first of all, the republicans haven't controlled these

committees and have not controlled their oversight authority including subpoenas. second, the president has lied repeatedly. i don't think there is any way to avoid that conclusion. he said he had no knowledge of these business interactions and these dealings with hunter. we have photos of the president with his associates. we have the president on tape in one of these files referring to these business controversies with his son. so that appears to be a repeated and frank lion going falsehood by the president. the other thing that is simply baffling is the democrats keep coming back and saying it is not a crime. influence peddling is not a crime. well, okay, but it is corrupt, right? at least we can all agree influence peddling is a form of corruption. and even if it's not a crime, that means it is even more important for congress to fully investigate whether the first family was involved in selling

influence and access to foreign interests. now this is part of it. we have a new biden being referenced here. this is just the start. that was just the first sars that was turned over to the house oversight committee. >> dana: there are a lot of threads to pull here. thank you for helping us do analysis this morning. thank you so much. we'll stay in touch. >> bill: john paul mack isaac ran the computer store in delaware and was counter sued. biden's deem said he had no right to copy private information from the laptop and distribute it. it was there for more than a yearened he was when will the guy come and get it? they launched their own legal suit. >> dana: the laptop that the media said didn't exist or russia disinformation. now his legal team is saying that was his property that he left there and that they didn't have a right to do anything with it. well you see a new posture led

by a famous lawyer to punch back and push back against republican efforts to get information. >> bill: more coming up on that. and this. >> you name it, i got it. >> bill: not just the cartels. mexican pharmacies are selling deadly drugs. lawmakers are calling for new action to shut that down. >> dana: echoes of the cold war getting louder after russia's downing of a u.s. drone. will relations get worse with moscow? >> bill: lawrence jones is in miami checking out the scene for spring break. how is it going and what are they telling you, lawrence? >> good morning, bill and dana.

without a prescription. 11% were laced with heroin. 82% had methamphetamine. this week congressmen wrote the secretary of state requesting a travel advisory for mexico and as an immediate step state department needs to warn americans traveling to mexico the danger they face when purchasing pills from mexican pharmacies. they say the lower cost of the medication draws american tourists to mexico. experts warn the problem goes well beyond painkillers. >> just 15 minutes from yuma, arizona are blood thiners with no active ingredient. chalk pills printed with epping rish labels. specifically targeted to american tourists going down there looking for cheap medication and fake blood thiners, if you need a blood thinner they're deadly. >> there was a broader alert for

mexico. counterfeit medication is common and may prove to be ineffective, wrong strength or contain dangerous ingredients. prescriptions should be purchased from reputable establishments. the mexican government says one ton 3 million americans travel there for medical tourism. >> bill: rich edson in washington, d.c. thanks. >> dropping dead, you know why? fentanyl. >> we already know that. >> don't do that. no. >> how did you all know? >> it's on the news. it is big. >> dana: lawrence jones sitting down with spring breakers. the state department has issued travel warnings for 30 of mexico's 32 states. last week two americans were killed in a cartel shoot-out miles from the border.

let's bring in lawrence jones host of cross-country. you were surprised they knew fentanyl was a big risk seth >> i was really surprised. i've been coming to spring break for five years with them and they are unaware about drugs in general and how it impacts their body. to see the comparison from last year when none of them knew about fentanyl you can tell it is a major crisis if the spring breakers now are aware of the drug. now is it going to affect the way they deal with it? i hope so. i'm not sure. it is a major hot bed for people to be targeted here at spring break trips. >> bill: lawrence, you told us, at least our producers, that some of those young americans chose florida over mexico. had they ever done that before? obviously based on what you heard just there the news

reports scared them off. >> it did scare them off. i was a spring breaker at one time not too far away from these young people and we would go and have a good time. a lot of them feel like it is too dangerous when you have americans coming up missing or dead. a lot of them chose the next best thing which is going to the beach here in florida. they feel it is safer. i don't know, look, i this i the police have done a great job trying to keep this contained. last night we went out with our crew to just get the vibe of the spring break. at night especially on a thursday, friday and saturday is when all hell breaks loose out on the town. you have these kids that think they are being cool and start brandishing a weapon. you have to watch the show to figure out what happens next after they brandish a weapon. they throw out money. they think it is a time where no laws exist. unfortunately it will affect them for the rest of their lives. law enforcement is not playing

with them. >> dana: law enforcement have their hands full in all these major cities but when you have a surge of tourists and people who want to have a lot of fun or brandishing weapons. that doesn't sound fun. if you look at fentanyl deaths in the united states and the numbers from the last several years in 2020 there were 55,000, 2022, 73,000. there will be more than that. we just reported that on the border this week alone our border patrol seized 2 million fentanyl pills. that's what we seized. who knows how much got through? do you hear from law enforcement they are concerned what could happen in miami? >> yeah, we did a short ride along yesterday in miami as well. there are so many different municipalities here they have to work together to try to come up with a plan to disrupt what is happening. fentanyl is the number one killer for ages 18 to 45. what law enforcement told me

yesterday during spring break they search all these undercover cops in here to get involved with the dealers to go after the dealers to disrupt them from actually selling to the kids. so they got their hands full. you have the d.a. over 50% of the drugs out here on the market is laced with fentanyl, eventually we'll have to stop what is happening at the border because there is only so much pro-active policing you can do. we just don't have enough cops. there is a national shortage no matter where you go. they got their hands tied right now and full, too. >> bill: thank you, lawrence. see you saturday night and looking forward to seeing the show. >> dana: that's a special on spring break at 10:00 p.m. saturday. thank you so much. >> bill: my first spring break trip was daytona. the only thing we did -- beer was the deal. we are so far removed from that lawrence is talking about now. >> dana: i think we went to

republican congressman mark green of tennessee busy this week. chairman of the house homeland security committee. good morning to you. on monday president xi meets with vladimir putin. there was concern just about 30 minutes ago crossing on the wire that china may try to broker some peace deal between the russians and ukrainians. if that happens the concern would be the ukrainians would get the short end of the stick. how concerned should we be about this meeting next week? >> very concerned. russia has basically become a puppet state to china as it is. both with how they get their oil under the sanctions and the equipment that they get to continue to propagate this war on ukraine. so every time those two meet, it is a concern. >> bill: so that meeting happens on monday. well we'll see where it goes. you were holding a hearing on the border earlier in the week. play the clip with you and are

we have to find out who exactly is in control of our southern border if we're not. i think i know the answer. i think most americans know the answer. it is the drug cartels in mexico. we have to get to the proof of that and demand this president do something different. >> bill: it might take a good long minute to get the answers. mark kelly was with bret bare last night. the democratic senator from arizona. part of his campaign for reelection in november was making the border more secure. here is part of it from last night. >> they want to lift title 42. they don't have a plan when it goes away. i still don't think they have a plan. this is a process of me pushing the administration and sometimes getting results and also having to drop legislation. >> bill: sounds good. i don't know what you get from it. he campaigned on closing the gaps in yuma. last night all 11 gaps are still

accessible. >> look, i'm more than willing to work with the senator if he wants to help us. we have a bill that will secure the border and we'll drop that here in the next few weeks. if he wants to help us and bring some security to the southern border, we're all in. we'll take the help. >> bill: you have a relationship with him? >> no, i knowed to reach out to him based on his comments last night. that is somewhat encouraging. a lot of rhetoric. it is interesting, bill, a lot more democrats are whispering in the halls we recognize it is a crisis and know it is hurting them. it is hurting them politically and killing americans also. they are becoming -- their position is becoming untenable. we'll hear more like what he said. >> bill: will you go back to the border for another hearing? >> absolutely. we will go back first for these transcribed interviews and do them on site not bring people to washington. unless we just can't make it happen any other way. the goal is to go back to the

border and do these transcribed interviews in their sector, in each sector chief's sector. >> bill: we'll wait for that. mark green, thank you for your time and appreciate you coming on. thanks. ♪ >> bill: here we go, new taylor swift music in today's hemmer celebrity news. thank you, greg. the superstar dropping four songs at midnight including an unreleased track from her album in 2019. did you know that? >> dana: i did not know that. >> bill: the other three were rerecorded versions of past songs, did you know that? >> dana: i didn't. >> bill: her new tour kicks off tonight in glendale, arizona. you have the taylor swift update in hemmer celebrity news. >> dana: i like her a lot.

what it was like in those moments when everything happened. >> i went outside and i watched the sky and i thought oh man, i saw the tornado and i run to my shelter. and a lot of noises and i see the roof blow and everything. i'm scared and i said oh man, what will i do? i went to my shelter in the restroom. >> we're waiting on some confirmation from the national weather service on if there was a tornado or if this is straight line wind damage. there was additional damage throughout this area. we went to a dealership where part of the roof in the front of the building collapsed. so the workers there were left to clean up that even a customer's car sitting in front had some damage as well. outside of that we know there were some reports of downed

trees around town. we had hail yesterday as a result of this storm. this all came during rush hour. a lot of people were out on the roads. we had flash flooding as well. there were some people getting stuck in high water. that caused for some high water rescues or just people needing help as they were stuck in water. again thankfully today it is a dry day, better conditions to help clean up this mess. it is cold and it is windy. >> dana: i can tell from your stance there, your reporting is excellent. thank you for bringing us the story, brandi. >> bill: san francisco now becoming a latest democratic-led city to crack down on gas appliances. bay area officials moving forward with regulations that ban future sales of certain natural gas-powered appliances. all commercial and residential furniture -- furnaces and

we'll tap into his expertise. show you something you already know. california's homeless population it is distressing. there is a lot of them there. if you look at -- now in 2022, 171,000 are homeless, the numbers they have. as a percentage of the u.s. homeless population that's 30%. california does have a huge problem. does this idea with tiny houses get to a solution that everybody can live with? >> i would actually like to give gavin newsom credit, nobody on earth in the history of the world is better at creating homeless people than gavin newsom. he deserves credit for that. when he was san francisco mayor back in 2008 he had a 10-year plan to eliminate homelessness. there is a video going viral that explains that. people can check it out. if you want to see that. he has ruined san francisco as

mayor. he has ruined california as governor. if you think that 1200 homes are going to do anything about the homeless problem which has far more to do with fentanyl and meth and the general state of lawlessness that the progressives and democrats and one-party state that is california have caused, it is not going to stop anything. these people have serious drug problems. they have serious psychological problems on top of the economic conditions that the democrats created. there are 100 other issues that should be dealt with to help these people if you believe the state has that role and then we can talk about housing. relative to housing, california also has some of the highest taxes in the nation, some of the craziest regulation related to building and builders don't want to build there. the high-income earners are fleeing the state and getting less tax revenue for the crazy adventures he wants to go on. >> dana: some additional monies going to some cities trying to tackle this as well like a

billion dollars here and a billion there. there is a state leader of the california state senate brian jones. this is what he said. this is just another band-aid on a crisis that is out of control in california. we know that throwing money at this problem doesn't work. now that you have had some distance from california and you've seen in florida how the system works a lot differently is there anything you think that gavin newsom could actually do to try to get people to stop coming to their state? what you are pointing out is that a lot of these people who are homeless want to be there. they have the conditions maybe they don't want to be homeless but they want to be left alone. but this tiny house idea might look good on paper. how long do you think it lasts? >> of course there is something gavin newsom could do. resign. everything he touches he re--

his wineries just got bailed out because they had all their money in svb bank which he lobbied joe biden to bail out, which they did. it turns out gavin had private money there. so he is good with his private stuff and helping his wineries. everything else he touches is garbage. having moved to florida, i willive in miami now. we have under 1,000 homeless people. all time low unemployment. they are building like crazy because desantis is escalating projects because we have 1200 people moving here every day. and if gavin newsom is thinking about running for president, which it seems like it is all heading in that direction the proof is in the pudding. about a million people have fled california since covid began and florida picked up a million. tennessee, texas, all the red states are picking up people and the question, of course, remains will these people vote the right way? i'm what app to say everyone i meet here seems like they know what they fled. there is nothing else gavin new
