thanks, ashley. >> ashley: we will see you later, joe. griff, it it was so nice having you with your expertise and knowledge and firsthand account at the border. stay safe down there and keep doing what you do. >> we're going to shine a light. my thanks to "fox & friends first" allowing me to be with you this morning. >> ashley: we got to go. ♪ >> ainsley: straight to a fox news alert illegal imgrant accused of killing five including 8-year-old boy on friday night still on the loose. >> steve: authorities down there in texas warning he should be considered armed and dangerous and can reward that leads to his arrest. >> gr griff man accused of killg
3:01 am
five people including 8-year-old boy execution style. fbi and texas governor greg abbott are now offering $80,000 reward for the capture of francisco or pays zoo. ice officials say the 30-year-old suspect illegal suspect been deported at least five times. he could be anywhere. emotional scene as family members gathered to remember the family victims including 3rd grade boy. a neighbor says he asked the man to quiet down, claiming he was drunk, shooting his gun just outside before midnight. that's when the suspect allegedly opened fire on his family, killing five of the 10 people inside the home. that man who survived the shooting lost his wife and stepson in the senseless attack. he says this, quote: i never thought he would shoot. then he went room to room looking for people. he couldn't catch up to me.
3:02 am
the bullets were hitting everywhere. i can't believe what he did. meanwhile, el paso is expected to be issue a new state of emergency today as border facilities hit the full capacity ahead of title 42 in just 10 days. border officials also releasing this new video warning migrants do not believe the lies of the cartel smugglers. listen. >> do not put your life at risk by taking the dangerous journey only to be sent back. many migrants don't know this and believe the lies they see on social media or hear from others. >> well, the migrants aren't listening to that public service announcement. and just to leave you with the final thought, guys, if you think back to september of 2021, when you saw 20,000 migrants under that bridge, haitians under that bridge in del rio, that took 17 days to reach that number. here, where i am. just behind me, a quarter mile
3:03 am
to the river in brownsville, texas, in the past 12 days, they have exceeded 20,000. we are on the verge of heading into unprecedented territory in terms of the surge that's coming this is 10 days before title 42, steve, ainsley, and brian? >> steve: that's right. of course one of the migrants in this country illegally the guy accused now of being the guy who murdered those five people. griff, initially, they put out the wrong picture, and they had the wrong spelling. now they have adjusted things any idea what happened? >> >> griff: noy. no idea. and we have been in contact with weekend long with law enforcement it wasn't until last night that our colleague, bill melugin was able to confirm that part about the fact that he had been deported at least five times. and you are looking now at the correct picture of will aura or.
3:04 am
we interviewed chris olivares. he was saying that they found the suspect's cell phone in the bushes near where the murders occurred. and that means that they won't be able to track him electronically if he was indeed to head straight toward the border to go back to new mexico which could lead him where we are in brownsville. steve? >> brian: go from title 42 to title 8. that means if these guys, anyone crosses without applying -- doing it the right way, they got to be sent back in theory. but, this g they say well, i need asylum, then they get a free pass? griff griff well, that rhetoric. and you really put your finger on something that's important, brian, the administration now saying under title 42 going away they are going to title 8 to deport people, send them back to their countries. they constantly put out messages if you come illegally, then you will be sent back to your home country. here's the reality. we are not seeing that so actions speak louder than words.
3:05 am
that is the old saying and it is certainly going to be something we are watching here now and if you just look simply at places like chicago, they have got migrants sleeping all over o'hare airport because they have nowhere to put them. alderman there saying they are seeing a 10-fold increase. migrants increase in chicago where they have airplanes. they are not sending them back to their own countries they are trying to figure out where to shelter them. >> ainsley: lori lightfoot says we are at a tipping point now we can't handle it all. these sanctuary cities they open their doors to them, exactly. thank you so much, griff. that shooting on friday is just so bo bothersome. shooting oust at 11 1:30 at night. three guys walk over do you mind moving, don't shoot in the yard because my one and a half-year-old can't sleep and is crying. the guy said this is my property. i can do whatever i want.
3:06 am
they went back to their house. wife is out on the front porch and he says honey, get inside. i see him loading his gun and is he walking this way. i'm a many would. i'm going to stand at the door. did you go take care of the kids. he isn't going to shoot me i'm a woman. two seconds she was out. ran to the bedroom. son and two little girls in there he put a chest of intrawrt. his brother-in-law hid under the closet with clothes with his children. mr. garcia said he jumped out you of the window and being shot at. thankfully he found some pine trees and able to hide. >> steve: multiple shots his way but the guy missed him. you know, it's such a sad story. how many times have you complained to a neighbor about something obviously this guy had some problems and murdered that entire family and now, you know, as griff just said it's all hands on deck. you got to figure if he has been deported five times, he is already back across the border.
3:07 am
>> ainsley: and he will come back. >> steve: yeah, when things cool down. >> brian: we will see. i will say this. it's pretty insincere at the very least. mayorkas was asked that yesterday on meet the press he said i haven't heard. that is it true he was hear illegally. no, i haven't heard it. you haven't heard it. don't have the latest information as homeland security. no, i don't want to entertain that aspect of this brutal murder. >> ainsley: waiting on congress. >> brian: blame it it on congress and guns. meanwhile is he a disgrace. is he an epic failure but this administration doesn't hold anyone accountability unless of course the theory is they want the border to be wide open. he sat down on meet the press with chuck todd who had to just look down at the numbers. and it's staggering. we had all-time record 1.7 million cross illegally apprehensions in 2021. all-time record. only to be surpassed in 2022 by 2.3 million apprehensions. so he can't run from these facts. nobody can the administration wants to ignore it.
3:08 am
so he asked mayorkas, by the way, not only are these numbers terrible and you say the border is closed, but the border patrol hates you. the union despises you. listen to his response. >> i want to ask you about border patrol because the union doesn't like you. they call you a national disgrace, remove mayorkas was their most recent tweet. how can you lead a group of people whose union wants you out of office? >> chuck, i'm incredibly proud to work with the united states border patrol. i have supported them vigorously since my first day in office. i will continue to do. so a tremendous source of pride. >> what do you think the disconnect is? do you think this is media perception? why do you think there -- is this a political. red, blue divide just simply because you are in a democratic administration? what do you believe it is. >> chuck, i'm focused on mission. that's what i'm focused on. >> brian: you suck at it. >> ainsley: agents are begging for more support and help. they are not getting it. you
3:09 am
hear from the people in charge saying oh the border is closed. no it's not. we are down here trying to work the border. >> brian: focus on mission. >> steve: border patrol does not like him because they want to do their job, and he will not let them do what they want. which is to stop people from coming into the country. ainsley, to your point, when asked, you know, by chuck todd, when title 42 ends, what does border patrol need? he says resources. we need more people, we need better technology nothing. we need facilities, we need transportation. , that's his list. but, really what he needs is money, and he needs it from congress. and this congress is not going to give him any because they don't like what he is doing right there. >> brian: if you want nationwide empathy republicans and democrats, show a kid trying to cross. you see them all alone and crying. everybody feels terrible. wwhichjust astounds me of all te questions to ask him. no one says what happened to the 85,000 kids that you have lost track of, the hundreds of
3:10 am
thousands that have come to our country? where are the families? is this a loophole to get the kid in here and then they send for the parents? is that what's going on? and do you feel compelled at all to look for these children anywhere? but, for some reason, that doesn't come up on their punch list. >> ainsley: or the more than a million got-aways. new york city is spending $5 million a day on housing and feeding illegals. >> brian: and they don't even like the food. they chuck it in the stairwell. >> ainsley: border patrol reporting that border croz crossings are three times higher under biden than donald trump. mya flores you remember her congresswoman and ran again. >> brian: briefly. >> ainsley: husband is a border patrol agent. she prays for him every day because she knows how dangerous his job. >> mayorkas claims we need a election legislative fix which we do. but the main problem here right now in brownsville he is not willing to enforce the laws we
3:11 am
already have in the books. we have laws. why is he not enforcing them. he needs to be held accountable biden administration, what is happening here in south texas is truly inhumane. this administration has already lost track of 85,000 children. 85,000 children that are potentially being sold to child sex trafficking and being exploited in our country. that's just unacceptable. i'm a border patrol wife. and our border patrol agents can't speak but we can and i encourage all border patrol wives to go out there and speak for them. our border patrol agents are exhausted. >> steve: because the border is wide open. it's not secure. it's wide open. >> brian: good point. have the wives speak if the husbands can't or visa versa or female border patrol agent. coming up overnight jp morgan chase takes over first republic. the third bank to collapse in a matter of months. why aren't people making a bigger deal of this. customers wake up wondering what it means for their wallets.

back with a fox business alert. breaking overnight while you were sleeping the feds have accepted a bid for first republic bank to be sold to jp morgan chase. >> jp morgan will assume all deposits and assets of the san francisco bank which is the second largest bank to fail in u.s. history. >> brian: do you believe this? alexandria hoff is live in washington, d.c. with more. alexandria. >> brian, ainsley, steve. first republic seen as the next bank to fold viability. it wavered since silicon valley bank and signature went under in march. word is reported over the weekend that fdic had found its position too week for private life save. bank stepped in and accepted that bid from jp morgan chase. he asked the company and others to step up so they did. adding that first republic branches are going to open up today as normal and clients are going to receive unprecedented service including digital and mobile banking capabilities. now republican congressman scott perry said over the weekend that
3:18 am
three banking failures since march is a symptom of something bigger. listen. it just shows the fragility of our economy, what has been caused by the run away inflation, the outrageous -- the outrageous spending by washington, d.c. and, of course, you know, internationally the inability or the lack of confidence in the dollar such that we're having a difficult time selling our debt. these are unprecedented things in america. and they're all due to policies of overspending and poor fiscal management out of washington, d.c. >> so first republic's downfall comes after $30 million was injected into it by 11 of the largest banks. jp morgan chase says those banks will be repaid what they had spent there this takeover clearly happening before the markets opening up today. on friday first republic stock closed at $3.51. last year guys it traded at $170
3:19 am
a share. we'll send it back to you. >> steve: unbelievable. alexandria a you detailed this back got $30 billion in march from a bunch of other big banks. hoping to prop it up. since then, the depositors have said we just don't feel like it's safe so they pulled the money and their shares dropped 75% as you just defailed. so clearly it's another kind of run on that bank. >> yeah, you are right. they didn't have the inflow to keep up. there was some optimism that was expressed just a couple of weeks ago by first republic ceo people have been pulling out at slower rarity there. federal reserve came out on friday say would go he have to look at these banks. what happened? yes there was mismanagement there they said federal regulators didn't catch on to this soon enough. they were too slow to act. this is something that has to be looked into. potentially changed. federal regulators with first
3:20 am
republic we stepped in this time fast enough. >> brian: jp morgan what's the downside the insurance paid off all the debt so they win. thank you very much. they have to do it over the weekend because they feel as though over the weekend they start on monday there won't be a run on it because they back it up. ro khanna came out yesterday you know what? let's just cover everything. in theory, that's great if you are in first republic. in the big picture, what incentives do these ceos have to be responsible because they know you know what? i'm going to leave with my bonus. i'm going to be able to get out of there, sell my stock ahead of time and if i act responsibly let someone else deal with it. sold to a bigger bank, the depositors will be covered no hell to pay. these guys you have to claw back that money, make sure they don't get deposits and someone has to look over the shoulder but just to do things logically. you can't be on oversight board and be ceo with a back like what was happening with the silicon valley bank. ro khanna had no idea that guy
3:21 am
had two jobs meanwhile a big donor to ro khanna. >> ainsley: conflict of interest. third bank to collapse since march. silicone valley, signature bank and now first republic what happened silicone valley bank collapsed. first republic clients to your point, steve. they started to panic they took out $100 billion in deposits. >> steve: do you blame them. [first bank silicon valley bank nobody lost any money. all of the depositors were paid in full. keep in mind, we you always see that sign fdic insured. that means your account censured up to $250,000. half a million two names husband and wife or something like that. here's the thing. these deposits will not be paid in full. they will only go up to 250 or 500,000. monday morning when you go knock

>> brian: new report from the "wall street journal" exposes the prominent names on jeffrey epstein's private calendar. some planned meetings include cia director william burns. barred college president and obama white house counsel kathy ruemmler. all meetings occurring after epstein served time in jail for a sex crime involving a minor in 2008. remember that fox news contributor bill mcgurn joins us now. we are looking at these names. if we don't know them by name, we know the position of power. what does this tell you? >> well, it tells you he was a very rich person and when you are very rich, you have connections and you have money and other people want them. and that didn't change conviction. >> brian: you have ehud barak on this so that's a little bit surprising. doesn't mean unsavory part but
3:34 am
knows the guy has money. martin nowak harvard university. given millions to harvard. i also found it interesting, too. that this barred college group, barred college president leon barred college famously spartanned by totally financed and propped up by george soros. so you have a intertwining of two very controversial multi billionaires. >> i think if you have a lot of money and you are friendly and with any college president, yiewrl going to be hit up for money. look, a lot of these people are trying to extract money from him. and he gave it out. he probably gave it out to build up his credentials. you know, social crumbs. only thing striking to me they weren't sure many of these meetings actually occurred. they were just scheduled.
3:35 am
what's amazing to me is how the conviction and the time in jail for a really despicable act didn't really matter so much. it was business as usual. but i guess that's what you can buy when you have a lot of contacts, and a lot of money. jeffrey epstein really cultivated that he knew how to do it. that was the secret to his succ. >> we don't really link these guys to epstein island: no linkage there unlike the black book that turned up. i'm really concerned about william burns. you worry about people being blackmailed. former ambassador to russia. william burns is thought director to have the cia. you think you might have had a sixth sense to say i probably want to stay a million miles away from this character. >> well, again, we don't really know what he was talking about. you know, i have heard riewrnls about jeffrey epstein's close ties with different countries in
3:36 am
the middle east. so we don't know, but he does look very unseemly. looks like people are rushing to go see him. again, for you and i. if we were convicted of that, i don't think we could get invited to a bingo hall. and jeffrey epstein, look it, he dazzled things operated. dinners, private dinner, jets flying to places. all the glamour life, you know, that most people certainly if you work for the cia that's not your lifestyle. you know, if you are a government bureaucrat. >> brian: just reminds me of china. if you want something. pay them off and you will get influence. >> yes, that's the rule. that's coin of the realm. >> brian: people will sell their soul for money. >> or they will buy it. >> brian: bill mcgurn, thanks
