that comes to my mind 20 years later, what heroes. such gratitude for the men and women who serve, they, for what everyone thinks of the war in iraq, liberated 21 million people, overthrew a dictator and the world is better off without saddam hussein in power. >> thank you all who serve and continue to serve. "america reports" now. >> we think there are as many as 11 more deals. now, we don't know what those deals are, with the bidens, in the beginning the white house denied having any knowledge or the fact that their family was involved in any sort of way, shape or form with the ccp, but now we have bank records that reveal otherwise. >> john: fox news alert, james comer saying the biden family may have made as many as 11

additional business deals with chinese companies, that is on top of a more than $1 million wire transfer hunter biden and other relatives received from a business deal with a chinese energy company. >> sandra: despite the newly revealed money trail, president biden is denying the allegations as questions grow over influence peddling. will it pose a threat to the president's expected 2024 election bid. we'll put it to elise stefanik, here coming up. >> over the last few years, china has made a leap in the development. it causes a genuine interest all over the world and we are even slightly jealous. president putin, i always call you my dear friend. we have carefully studied your proposals on settling the acute crisis in ukraine. we will discuss all those issues, including your initiatives. >> i am sure that the people of

russia will support you in your best efforts. >> john: begin this monday with the high stakes meeting between xi jinping and vladimir putin as fears grow china is set to play a pivotal role in the war in ukraine. great to be kicking off another week with you. >> sandra: and great to see you early this morning john, and kick off a breaking news afternoon, i'm sandra smith in new york. this is "america reports." two leaders touting the strengths of their friendship to kick off a three-day summit in moscow serving dual purposes. xi, looking to highlight his diplomatic role in the world, putin seeks to show the west efforts to isolate him have failed. >> john: and putin welcomes china's efforts to be a peacemaker with ukraine. the white house has been quick to reject the efforts, claiming beijing lacks neutrality and may still send lethal aid to russia to turn the tide of its invasion. >> sandra: retired general keith

kellogg is standing by. mike tobin is in kyiv. what's the reaction to the putin-xi summit so far? >> very interested. they think that it does show that vladimir putin is not as isolated as they would like him to be. but as you saw there, this three-day meeting with xi jinping and vladimir putin kicked off with some brief public comments, mostly pleasantries, and the proposal to end the war. >> we have carefully studied your proposals on settling the acute crisis in ukraine. we are also well aware we are always open for negotiation process. we will discuss all these issues, including your initiatives. >> leaders in ukraine say it's a nonstarter. they say they are not open to any negotiation that does not involve a complete withdrawal of russian forces, including from

crimea. >> i don't think that president xi will stop the war but at the same time, i don't think he will openly support putin. but in any way, this visit shows that the axis of autocratic regimes is strengthening, and the only answer on this should be strengthening of democracy and democracy access. >> u.s. is sending more weapons into the fight. antony blinken announced 34th draw down of weapons, valued at $350 million. the shipment will include ammunition for the rocket systems proven effective in helping hold ground in the south and east of the country. >> sandra: mike tobin live from kyiv, thank you, mike. john. >> john: bring in retired lieutenant general keith kellogg, former national security adviser to mike pence and fox news contributor. xi told putin they are close

friends as you heard, russia claims that china and russia should have close relations. you heard putin say they will entertain the peace proposal, we don't know what it is. what do you think will come out of the meeting? >> president xi, he's on a roll, he was elected for the third unprecedented six-year term, now brokered a deal between saudi arabia and iran for peace, an area that we are generally always had in our back yard. and yet he's taken over. so he comes in with putin and i think he's going to come in and push peace, the first thing on their agenda. three options. first option is do nothing, not an option, kind of a throw away. the second is reinforce heavy with everything that russia needs, and i think the third is go for some type of peace deal with putin and with zelenskyy as well. and maybe he'll look at zelenskyy and say i'm going to give you this aid, help you

rebuild ukraine and do it. and what happens if he can't broken a deal, he becomes the most consequential leader in the world bar none, and puts him in front of everybody. so at least he's trying to do something, and showing his leadership out there and i think he can influence putin. putin to me, russia is a junior partner, they are not the senior partner. clearly the chinese are. i don't care if it's economic, humanitarian, military, but xi is doing this and i think a chance he may do it because zelenskyy has been asking him repeatedly, call me, come and see me, let's try to do something. >> john: people who know putin are rejecting the idea of a ceasefire, saying it will only play to what putin needs to do. what john kirby told mike emmanuel. >> if coming out of the meeting a call for a ceasefire, that's just going to be unacceptable. all it's going to do is ratify russia's conquests to date. give mr. putin more time to

refit, retrain, reman and try to plan for renewed offensives at a time of his choosing. >> john: what you and other people have been saying for a long time. don't give him that rope because he'll use it to hang you with. >> absolutely. and i think that's what they are saying, but it's reaching a point, reach a point of war weariness, the fighting, they are losing thousands of soldiers a day, and putin may say i have to cut my losses. he loses his army, he goes. he'll fall. >> john: i think we are a ways away from that, though. i want to talk to you about this, yesterday the 20th anniversary of the invasion of iraq, you were at the pentagon at that point. i was with the second light armored marines in northern kuwait, president bush said we are going to war and packed up the camp and by morning on the

iraq and kuwait border and crossed over. more than 4800 americans killed in the combat and ensuing occupation. iraqis, more than 270,000 dead. $2 trillion in combat expenses. i remember, call four number four, colin powell at the u.n. security council, i was in the chamber when he sold the premise for the war in iraq in february of 2003, and it was all a false premise. >> absolutely. in fact, but we fool ourselves because we were picking up chatter and i remember sitting in the office of the joint staff at the time, and the admiral, and listening to intercepts of the iraqis, and the commander was saying when are you going to release and the other guy would say when are you going to release. and maybe they do have it. what happened, it was false. none of them had it, so fell into a false trap and when you look at what colin powell said

and down the road, which was unfortunate, because how much respect i have for him, that this is where a lot of people don't believe the u.s. government, it took us into a huge war, showed 4,000 dead but over 30,000 wounded, grievous wounds as well. take us down this path, it was a bad war, it took us a while to get out of it. i went over there after the war, chief operating officers for the coalition of provisional authority, iraq was a basket case. economically it was a disaster. and look at what happened after that, the subsequent wars in there and iran as well, that all started because of the war in iraq at that time, when you look back is a very unfortunate part of america. >> john: hats off to the men and women of the military who prosecuted their mission to the utmost of their ability. >> absolutely, absolutely. >> john: sandra. >> sandra: former president

donald trump says he expected to be arrested tomorrow. a source telling fox news several branches of law enforcement are meeting today but also officials have not yet discussed specific timing for a potential indictment. if prosecutors do file charges, the former president would be the first u.s. president in history to ever be indicted. bryan is here for us, if the indictment comes down, what would happen next? >> good afternoon. the former president's attorney says trump will surrender if he's indicted and will follow "normal procedures." look, we are in unchartered territory. one possibility is trump's attorneys negotiate the time and day he surrenders to the manhattan district attorney's office, fingerprinted, photographed for the mug shot and receive a dna cheek swab for the database. and then handcuffed, perp walked down a hallway in front of the media before entering a public manhattan criminal courtroom. arraigned on the charges, enter

a not guilty plea and released on his own recognizance. the secret service will take the lead on security, weighing in on handcuffs and the perp walk. indicting a u.s. president is unprecedented, and it's possible we never see trump physically in court. ultimately all of this is up to alvin bragg, accused by trump and some republicans of a witch hunt. in a letter, jim jordan is demanding him to testify before congress. nypd unloaded barriers outside the manhattan courthouse and a security meeting is taking place to discuss preparations. a source tells fox news they expect the secret service to say they would prefer -- prefer a possible arraignment take place virtually. today, robert costello, is set

to testify before the grand jury. costello is testifying at the request of trump's lawyers. cohen is a star witness against trump and costello is expected to cast doubt on cohen's credibility. cohen has been called in to serve as a rebuttal witness. trump has denied, of course, any wrongdoing, sandra. >> sandra: a chance we could hear from him following the appearance, we will watch for that. and jonathan turley coming up. he wrote this morning that this case has been looked at and dropped several times before by the doj. bragg's predecessor and bringing it back because of the political pressure. >> john: and what happened with john edwards in 2012, he was charged with campaign finance violations when he paid off real hunter to quiet about their relationship and love child and the case was made that this was

not necessarily to protect the campaign, i mean, if a person has an affair with another person and it could come out and ruin their marriage, of course they are going to give them whatever they need to keep quiet. so the same could be argued here, even though president trump has denied the affair. but the jury bought it, and john edwards walked free and the doj decided they were not going to prosecute him again and so the whole thing went away. >> sandra: we could get some breaking news on all of this in the next hour. we will monitor all of it, john. >> john: looking forward to that. fox news alert, american aid worker abducted has been freed after more than six years in captivity. jeffrey woodke was taken hostage by militants in a west african nation in october of 2016. a second hostage, a french journalist went missings in 2021, also released. it's unclear how they were let go. >> sandra: the latest batch of

twitter files exposing yet another reported attempt to censor factual covid information. this time at the directive of the u.s. government. so, who was behind this? >> john: the house oversight committee connecting the dots between china and the biden family after financial records show a payment to the tune of more than $1 million. republicans say the number may be much higher. what did joe biden know about this? we'll ask elise stefanik, that's coming up next. >> china is our adversary, the president, we have to ask, has he been compromised by all the millions of dollars that have come to his family. future. so we're hard at work, helping them achieve financial freedom. we're providing greater access to investing, with low-cost options to help maximize savings. from the plains to the coasts, we help americans invest for their future.

who has profited off of dealing with adversaries like the chinese communist party. and the proof of who the fourth biden was, we need the transparency, we need answers, no stone unturned to make sure we bring accountability and ensure the american people know the truth of the height of corruption of biden and his family members. >> sandra: i promised i would ask about your meeting there just a moment ago, as looks like you are unveiling a strategy with your colleagues looking to expand and target 37 democratic seats. our team put together this graphic. you tell me what the strategy is because you say that 37 districts are pick-up opportunities for next year's elections for your party, including democrats who flipped seats last year in districts biden lost in 2020, like marie perez in washington's third, marie paltola in alaska, and swing districts, where dem

incumbents held off republican challengers in november. open seats in california and michigan where reps katie porter and alyssa slotkin are running for senate. what's the strategy to see it play out for your party? >> the strategy is we are going on offense. we saw this past election cycle the american people were looking for leadership. house republicans ran on our commitment to america and economy that's strong and nation that's safe, a future built upon freedom and government that's accountable and in new york, we are going on offense and importantly, in the first three months of the majority. over 30 were passed on a bipartisan basis, unleashing american independence, fundamental freedoms, getting rid of the punitive covid mandates, we are hitting the ground running and make sure we deliver the results and ultimately grow our majority in 2024.

>> sandra: i want to ask you about what we are waiting at this hour, and president trump expects to be arrested tomorrow as new york law enforcement we have been told is preparing for the possible indictment. i want to get your reaction to that as we await anything in the next hour or so on this. >> this is a political witch hunt perpetrated by one of the far left radical socialist district attorneys in alvin bragg. and take a step back. i'm a new yorker, and alvin bragg, and taking felonies and pushing to misdemeanors and refusing to prosecute crimes, yet in this case, considered a zombie case, and about punishing political opponents of democrats. joe biden is losing in a head to head against donald trump. donald trump is the most likely republican nominee and therefore the most political opponent of joe biden. so the fact they are using a manhattan d.a. office to pursue

allegedly been working with major tech companies and other third companies to censor covid information online, according to the newest twitter files released on friday. first to chief washington correspondent mike emmanuel. what are we learning from the latest batch? >> sandra, journalist revealing twitter files 19, the great covid lie machine, stanford, the project, and the censorship of true stories. he writes the project financed by the federal government told twitter true stories could fuel hesitancy, things like celebrity deaths after vaccine or the

closure of a central new york school from post vaccine illness should be considered standard vaccine misinformation on your platform. he adds in one email to twitter, virality project, the vaccine passport narrative, saying concerns over such programs have driven a larger anti-vaccination narrative about the loss of rights and freedoms. framed as a misinformation event. one former big tech employee drawing this conclusion. >> we were doing counter terrorism, ok, that was great. we are focused on foreign malign influence campaigns, that was great. now we are taking these tools and turning them inward on the american people so we have to push back. >> one medical expert says going forward, people will need to listen to doctors and he fears they won't. >> we have lost trust in public health officials because they have basically lied to us when they should have given us the answer, we don't know, and covid ultimately had a case fatality

rate of somewhere around 2/10 of 1%. what happens when the next virus comes around with the rate of 50%. >> he found federal contractors pushed social media companies to censor americans who doubted edicts about covid. sandra. >> sandra: live in washington on that, mike, thank you. john. >> john: sandra, more on this, our panel, juan williams, fox news senior political analyst and david avella. so the stanford university virality project, it targeted a lot of narrative that defied -- >> if you are trying to combat misinformation, propaganda,s conspiracy theories, sometimes you may go over the line. that does not mean you are bad people or out to get conservatives and i think that's what's driving matt and the lady

from the heritage foundation. as americans, some of the social media companies need to be reined in that they are going to be unfair to conservatives and that conservatives thought and conservative arguments will in fact be censored. but i don't think that's what happened there. i think what happened there, even through all the conservative anger at dr. fauci and the medical establishment, i think if i look back to that time period, you wanted to encourage americans to take the right steps to protect not only themselves, but their communities and each other. >> john: you said some of the time you will step over the line. this seemed to be more than some of the time. called it the lie machine, lab leak, even jokes as potential violations. said at one point, by march of 2021, twitter personnel were talking about the vice president's language, misuse of official reporting tools as

potential violations. these are just differences of opinion, david. >> keep in mind and take a step back here. americans' most trusted source on healthcare is their doctors and their medical professionals. and so much of the information that our medical community gets comes from medical journals and that is why constant research needs to be done to help educate the american people most trust with the healthcare decisions and why government getting in between a medical community and americans is the wrong path. just as we are on the verge of typically americans move because of tax policy or better weather. now we are going to start have americans move based on public health policy because so much of covid has now made healthcare decisions ideological. so much of how people viewed covid was based on their partisan philosophy. so people will start making decisions about where they live

based on healthcare policy in line with their political ideology, which is not good for america. >> john: the other topic, rich with something, whatever word you want to use to describe it. hillary ronan, a san francisco city supervisor tweeted this, i believe in defunding the police and reducing the officers. decades, hundreds of millions of dollars going to the san francisco police department to have them do work they are not qualified to do. now three crime ridden years later in the city of san francisco, here is what that same hillary ronan is saying. >> i've been begging this department to give the mission what it deserves in terms of police presence all year-long and i have been told time and time and time and time again there are no officers that we can send. >> john: no officers to send because you defunded the police. >> did she defund the police?

>> john: she wanted to. like a death bed conversion crime equivalent. >> you know, from my perspective, i want to know, did they actually make cuts and i don't think they did, john. but i think what she was saying is you want to make sure police are not being sent to handle people with mental issues, she's talking about the mission district in san francisco, you have a lot of people with drug addicts, drunks, people, veterans -- >> john: she's saying all the officers are tasked with defending retail stores because they are a target for crime. >> the point would be you need cops to do their job and she's now complaining about it and looks like hypocrisy, and that's a fair criticism. >> just as we should be celebrating the birthday of the gop today, 1854, also celebrating every time a democrat realizes that americans public safety should come first. and think back to 1993, why did dick reardon get elected mayor of l.a., and rudy giuliani of

new york city, all because citizens did not feel they were being safe, and that's why in addition to big mayor's races in the next couple years, you have to look at the prosecuting attorneys, which is why our project protecting americans action fund is seeing a record number of americans wanting to run for prosecuting attorney because you have these rogue prosecuting attorneys that won't enforce the law and that's the next big battle, making sure people are enforcing the law, particularly on the small petty crimes. >> john: lori lightfoot is a precautionary tale. >> eric adams, and in this town, muriel bowser. she did not want it until she did want it until she didn't want it -- we have not talked about -- >> john: we'll leave you two to discuss with each other.

>> sandra: thank you very much, we are awaiting the white house press briefing. john kirby, karine jean-pierre are expected to be pressed on this. xi-putin summit in moscow, we'll monitor that and take you there live when it begins. >> john: now concerns after border patrol officials say they caught dozens of suspected terrorists trying to get into the country at the southern border. is the u.s. prepared for a worst case scenario. tom homan weighs in just ahead. >> they have not secured the border, contrary to mayorkas constant refrain, but the people responsible for it telling the truth to congress that the border is not secure.om an coina? no. he's making real-time money moves with merrill. so no matter what the market's doing, he's ready. and that's... how you collect coins. your money never stops working for you with merrill, a bank of america company. what does it mean to be ever better? its your customers getting what they ordered when they expect it.

>> just last month there are 16 people on the terrorist watch list, that's more than the entire four years under president trump. and when you are worried about isis k, they know exactly how to get into our country. they know exactly what they need to do. >> sandra: house majority leader kevin mccarthy sounding the alarm from isis k, saying they know exactly how to get into our country. comments coming as the military warns the terror group could strike u.s. assets or western allies in less than six months and 69 people on the fbi terror watch list have been caught trying to enter this country illegally, just since october. tom homan now, he's been on this since go, former acting i.c.e. director and visiting fellow at the heritage foundation. alarming threat to the country and seems to only be getting scarier. >> you know, mccarthy is right. the southwest border is the

biggest national security failure since 9/11, mark my word. that many terrorists coming across, and the facts. we have 1.3 million known got-aways on video, drone traffic, center traffic, 1.3 million got-away. arrested people from 170 different countries since joe biden is in office. some are sponsors of terrorism. so if you don't think a single one of the 1.3 million got-aways came from a country sponsoring terrorism, to do us harm, you are ignoring. and come to the united states, a plane ticket or visa, you have to go through vetting. why would any terrorist put themself in position to be vetted when you simply get to mexico, cross the southwest border like 1.3 million others did and not get arrested. >> sandra: the com commander on the isis k threat, serious warning. >> specifically isis korsan, my

commander's estimate they can do an external operation against u.s. or western interests abroad in under six months with little to no warning. >> sandra: under six months with little to no warning. that should be a major wake-up call to people who don't think it's a serious growing threat. >> the southwest border scares the hell out of me. i've been doing it for 35 years. never been more concerned about the safety of the nation than i am right now. i don't know how many terrorists have gotten by, i don't know how many of the 1.3 million came here to do us harm. some day we are going to find out, a bad day for the country. >> sandra: wow. nonu.s. citizens on the terror watch list caught at the border, again, the number since october. that is a big number. that is huge. i mean, here we are just entering the spring months, the middle of march and that is not an improving situation. new york post this morning, terror at the border, watch list arrests on track to surpass 2022

total already, tom. >> the number is extraordinary, and that's what scares me. scares every american and god bless the men and women of the border patrol, they caught that many. that tells me the terrorists are not very smart. they are trained how to evade law enforcement. we cannot let it escape us. 1.3 million people have crossed the border, were not arrested, not vetted, don't know where we are right now. we demand action by the biden administration. a stronger president, a stronger administration would secure the border and protect america. >> sandra: it is a big task at hand for anybody who takes it on, that is for sure. meanwhile, ask you about the chinese nationals that were caught at the border, fox news cameras were rolling this weekend on a group of chinese nationals, illegally crossing into american soil, and were intercepted by texas dps and national guardsmen, this was mission, texas, fox cams also capturing some chinese and russian nationals crossing into

eagle pass, texas, and this is obviously a growing issue as well in this border crisis. >> and look, the average chinese national pays between 35,050,000 to be smuggled to the united states. we should be concerned chinese nationals are crossing this border. we arrested people from iran, north korea, russia, syria, i mean, a lot of terror-sponsored countries, nationals enter the country. most would not turn themselves over to the border patrol, they don't want to be vetted. it's a huge issue and the administration is not paying attention to it. biggest national security since 9/11. terrible for the country and the security of the nation. some day we are going to find out just how bad it is. >> sandra: the rio grande valley agent says it's putting a strain on the workforce with the 90 chinese nationals apprehended in a single day last week alone.

920% increase in chinese migrant apprehensions, since the year 2022. wow. thank you for shedding light on it and bringing the attention to it. tom, good to have you here in new york. >> thank you. >> john: sandra, fox news alert, president biden has issued the first veto of his presidency. this was a threatened veto and carried it out a short time ago. on the esg, or environmental social and corporate governance bill, so-called woke capitalism, that wanted to limit the biden administration ability to take into account esg when making investments. it was 50-46 the vote in the senate, means two democrats crossed the line, john tester of montana, and joe manchin, and manchin said they prioritize the radical policy agenda over the economic energy and national security needs of the country and it is absolutely -- and

president said risk retirement savings by making it illegal to consider risk factors maga house republicans don't like. your plan manager should be able to protect your savings, weather marjorie taylor greene likes it or not. two-thirds majority in the house and senate to overturn it, doesn't look like the votes are there. >> sandra: california taxpayers spending billions to move homeless off the streets and turn themselves around. why are there even more now. >> john: deadly violence in florida, a state of emergency and curfew. >> a lot of steam that's been built up over the last few years during covid that's blown off
