>> todd: fox news alert, the illegal immigrant accused of killing a family of five is in custody. he had multiple deportations. >> this was entirely preventable, this is somebody that should have been charged with illegal reentry, a felony on multiple occasions. if they knew of this individual and where he was, they would not

have gone out and arrested and deported him. this administration doesn't care because they want this border open and they are committed to open borders at all cost at this point. >> todd: you're watching "fox and friends first"s, i'm todd piro. >> ashley: the case against francisco oropesa, he will be forced to answer for the deaths of this innocent family. brooke singman has breaking details. >> brooke: the illegal migrant accused of killing five was found hiding in a closet under a pile of laundry. agents from border patrol captured 38-year-old francisco oropesa, who faces five murder counts and being held on $5

million bond. jimmy paul, in charge of the case, says a tip led to yesterday's arrest. listen. >> the tip came in from the fbi tip line and we just want to thank the person who had the courage and bravery to call in the suspect's location. >> ashley: on top of that tip, oropesa's wife -- suspect had help in hiding. u.s. customs and border patrol troy miller releasing this statement about the arrest. i'm proud of the members of the workforce who apprehended the suspect, tonight's actions demonstrate our agents and officers bring incredible capabilities to bear everyday as they work to keep our communities safe. five people, including a nine-year-old boy were killed in friday night's shooting which took place after an alleged

shooter neighbor asked him to stop firing a rifle in their yard so their baby could fall asleep. oropesa was convicted for driving while intoxicated in 2012. officials tried to arrest him last year, but he could not be found. ashley and todd. >> ashley: biden administration approved sending 1500 active troops to the southern border to brace for the end of title 42, set to expire next week. >> todd: former candidate from make america great inc. is here. the biden administration, why the last minute panic when it comes to title 42, we'll throw 1500 troops at the problem, sort of to fool the american people. >> right. the policies are not working

well. sending 1500 to the border is too little too late. number one responsibility of commander-in-chief is to protect the homeland and joe biden has been derelict in that duty. he was given -- remain in mexico joe biden slashed those with executive orders day one and stopped funding for it is border wall saying it was waste of time and resources. the american people have known about title 42 expiring for two years, now no plan of action, 3.2 million illegal immigrants over the last 10 months, fentanyl overdoses at the hands of mexican cartels, chinese fentanyl, those deaths are on the hands of this administration and i believe they will pay for that in the next election cycle.

too little too late, trying to save face before the next election. >> ashley: talk about oropesa, this guy arrested after200 plus law enforcement personnel were looking for this guy for five days or so. long story short, he should not have been here, he was deported four times and you have people like kyrsten sinema saying issue the border is not secure, biden administration has not had a handle on this. former ice director, tom homan says this wasn't have happened under the trump admin stlagz and it goes to show how trump would have handled it and how biden is handling this. would this have happened under trump? what should the biden administration do? sending troops to the border is a bandaid, do you think this would have happened under trump? >> absolutely not, we had record

low illegal crossings, highest deportations, people were sent home and forced to stay in their country when seeking asylum. they have had everyone months to figure this out. they are saying congress should pass comprehensive regulation reform, you had 18 months to do that when nancy pelosi was in office. karine jean-pierre saying deportations are down 90%? a border, nation without borders will cease to exist. we cannot afford this leadership. >> todd: dc has been talking about comprehensive leadership since i was born. independent voteerces could be key for republicans to regain the white house. record 49% of americans say they

identify as politically independent. i agree, most people i know i are not democrat or republican, they vote that way. are republicans doing enough to capture that independent vote? >> yes, we are, more independents are good heading into the next election. we need a candidate who reignites the base. trump is leading by 33%, leading by 20 in iowa and across the country, too. republicans will vote for president trump. it is selling clear contrast between life in joe biden's america and life in president trump's america. we had secure border, now wide open border. we had peace around the world and now chaos around the globe. we had a booming economy and now

we're heading for a recession. hard-working independent says state after state are feeling that, $7000 in annual income because of socialist democrat policies. >> todd: voters will come back to trump if he's the nominee in 2024, we'll see and we'll have you back to see if you are right. thank you. joe biden's interior secretary is defending the white house radical climate agenda and wait until you hear this. >> i know that there is like 1.9 jobs for every american in the country right now, there are a lot of jobs. >> wait a minutes, wait a minutes, you're telling me we have too many jobs in the country? >> ashley: too many jobs? how can you have too many jobs? a former coal miner who lost his

saturday and sunday, watch that for the kentucky derby. stay tuned. here is snow still to come for the mountains of west virginia. are people still skiing? i suppose it is good news story if they are. potential for late week storm. this area of low pressure comes out from the west toward the rockies and could see hail, damaging wind, tornados for texas through oklahoma thursday and thursday night and into friday, potential for showers and thunderstorms with severe storm threat. that is dallas texas. 80 today, 71 for thursday with chance of thunderstorms and we will bump up to 94 on friday. a see-saw when it comes to springtime. >> ashley: sure is. >> janice: will hopefully get that omega block out by the weekend, not nice in the northeast. >> todd: omega block, talk to

your doctor or pharmacist about the omega blockers. >> janice: different kind. >> todd: biden interior secretary went one-on-one with josh hawley and made a claim about blue-collar jobs in america. >> jobs for blue-collar workers in this nation are valuable resources. the livelihood and well being of american families are valuable resources. >> senator, i know that there is like 1.9 jobs for every american in the country reright now, there are a lot of jobs. >> wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute, you are telling me we have too many jobs in the country? three million jobs have gone to china, they have come out of midwestern towns lieb the one i represent. >> todd: of the 3.7 million jobs u.s. lost to china between 2001 and 2018, three quarters of

those jobs came from manufacturing. bo copp, a former west virginia coal miner joins us live. what is your reaction to the interior secretary implying there are too many blue-collar jobs? >> good morning issue, todd, i appreciate you having me on. that is almost laughable to hear that. i didn't know we had nearly two jobs for every american in the country available right now, especially here. we don't typically see those kind of numbers. really like to know where the nsh numbers came from. >> todd: your friends and family do not feel there are too many darn jobs? >> maybe there are too many jobs, i don't think the jobs we are used to having or not the jobs that i pathe salmanries we're used to seeing.

maybe president reagan put it best, nine most terrifying words any sides should here is i'm from the government and i'm here to help. apparently they're government-created jobs issue not sure that is the help we are looking for. >> todd: important point, doesn't a comment like the interior secretary made show the disconnect between the elite who are deciding how to implement the green new deal and the hard-working americans like yourself who want to work and put food on their table for their families. >> absolutely. never really even thought about it until this morning, it was seven years ago yesterday i had the opportunity to sit down with secretary clinton and seven years ago today i had my first interview with fox news and i

can't believe that our situation has been so dire and grave in a lot of ways that i've had an opportunity to speak nationally about our situation. we have an administration whoun was to sit back and say, you are not looking or really giving it your best effort. two jobs for every american? it is self-serving from where i'm from. >> todd: happy anniversary, tongue and cheek. i'm sure you would give it all up if you could have normal life back the way it was in west virginia. final question, how frustrating to know if the american worker, especially in energy-rich states like west virginia, were unleashed and able to unlock all the energy we have in great states, not only would we be able to compete better with china, your area would see

wealth you haven't seen in a really long time. >> absolutely, and i'm not as much worried about the compete with china thing as much as i am of us have are our own independence and not worry about other countries and us using energy independence we have and have an abundance of in our nation and not rely on other people. west virginia wants to rely on what god has given us and do the work we have an opportunity to do under different administrations. >> todd: we are shooting ourselves in the foot and it is hurting great people, like bo copley. we appreciate your efforts getting the word out. you have to see this video. a virginia police officer finds himself in the path of an out of control driver. wait until you see how it ends

from their normal duty and placed in the role of security officer. they are just called upon and reassigned, often at lower wage than normal correctional officer. >> is this basic training enough to do this job? >> it is what everybody is given in the national front when hired. however, they don't utilize it daily, they can be unaware of day-to-day operations. >> frank, this question, what does, how dangerous can this be for you guys, especially with the staffing shortages? >> it does create a danger, it does. fully staffed prison is a safe prison. when you reassign people, it affects the first step taking teachers and case managers and

putting into correctional officer positions, it is making it harder and helps inmate families and creates a better environment for everybody when we're fully staffed. >> ashley: right, i wouldn't imagine. frank, why are prisons having hard time retaining correction officers? what are they doing wrong? >> in florence here, prices have skyrocketed, this 25% for correctional officers is necessity to maintain decent living out here, that is our main focus, getting 25% for all is our main focus. >> ashley: right. then, john, what are incentives for prison guards to stay on and do this? any incentive they are giving you guys? >> correctional officers receive

25% retention pay. counselors and teachers receiving 10%, showing not to be working. we're seeing rise in correctional officers, however, decline in the noncustody positions, teachers or counselors to the effect of i think we retain 24 staff in a year. where is attrition at a high rate. >> ashley: latest report from the inspector general officer shows 4000 unfilled guard positions in the united states. so john, what happens if that number keeps growing? what could our future look like with the prison system? >> from our aspect locally, vantage points, you can see it, we will reassign custody staff to fill in behind correctional officer and this year alone in

florence we use 3.6 million of overtime budget and have 12 patriots to go. the cost is great. >> ashley: wow. frank, what could the state or prisons be doing instead of getting teachers and secretaries to do the jobs what else could they do to retain correction officers? >> i think retention bonuses is our main focus giving correctional officers 25%. we have seen it work with correctional officers and it helps people not retire giving that 25% keeps them on and ep coos people interested in transferring into us. i think the number one thing would be to continue our ramping up of recruitment across the border and 25%. >> ashley: is it because it is

dangerous or you are not getting paid enough or both? >> well, it is -- slightly -- sorry, go ahead. >> ashley: john, what were you going to say? >> i would say both. with increase in everything in southern colorado rivalling home prices where that didn't happen 10 years ago. >> ashley: you can't keep up with it. gentlemen, good luck to you, hope to get this figured out, first time i've been hearing about this, i don't think it is the last. john and ink fra, thank you for your time, appreciate it. >> thank you for having us. >> ashley: "saturday night live" is latest to shut down due to the writers strike, leaving workers without a paycheck. >> todd: joe piscopo is member of writers guild of america, there is jersey joe in l.a. this morning. we'll ask what comes next for tv movie industry on the other side of the break.

why it is so important is because it is working class people of america versus the big corporate giant. that is what happened. movie companies are making a fortune. i don't want to sound like a socialist or anything, they got to spread the wealth because we have gone through this year after year after year in the writers guild of them taking advantage of us and i see by my little puny residual checks and it is time to stop and stand strong. >> todd: it is not socialism when the people asking for the money do the work and they are asking for future streams on money from platforms that have yet to be created or so in the infancy. don't worry about it, writers worry about it because they don't want to lose out. tonight show staffer called out jimmy fallon saying he wasn't even at the meeting to tell us we won't get paid after this

what do the nonrepublicans think? republicans probably don't like joe biden. but the nonrepublicans are the ones in swing states going toic mathe difference. texas is on the border, what say you? >> yeah, todd, it is hard to find fans, joe biden response to president donald trump. he was a blank space, an empty line, an x people chose to check next to because they were voting against donald trump and they are getting what they voted for, largely nothing. i think there are many fans to be found for joe biden, every poll backs that up. quick side note from people offended by the national anthem. i've been diners from pennsylvania to wisconsin, more than one occasion customers have stood up and sang the national anthem on their own.

it is not a common occurrence, but outside of a ball game because it doesn't happen in school anymore, have opportunity to encounter the national anthem. when customers or restaurant owner choose to honor the united states of america, i'm sorry if you are offendedor afraid, i will be talking toin dooers at this pancake house. it is a short drive to the place where the west gings, i will be talking about democrats moving into 2024 because of curiosity around rejection of joe biden and who they are ready to embrace. it is ron desantis, one of many in the field for the republican candidacy. it is good to get back out here, talk to the people and see where there head is and what they are thinking as we head down. maybe not the final lap, last final couple laps until we make another big decision, we are doing it all morning long on

. ♪ >> you assured congress some time ago that the hunter biden investigation would be conducted without any kind of political interference that's still the case? >> i stand by my testimony and i refer you to the u.s. attorney for the district of delaware who is in charge of this case and capable of making any decisions that he feels are appropriate. >> attorney general merrick garland is not backing down from his testimony in the hunter biden probe, despite an irs whistleblower's revealing that politics could be interfering in the case. the irs special agent's lawyer explaining, quote: examples of preferential treatment and politics a improperly affecting decisions and protocols that normally would physical if the subject were not politically

connected. >> joe con char that is here to break it down. did he lie in support of a previous fly congress. >> either you believe this whistleblower who has no scheme in the game politically or you believe merrick garland. the head of the justice department who is the president's wing man as eric holder was barack obama's wing man. the strategy appears to be from both joe biden and tony blinken and merrick garland offer absolute denials and it could cost antony blinken his job. two instances he emailed and met with hunter biden while he was deputy secretary of state in 2015. this is when making $1 billion on the board of energy company burisma despite having zero experience working in that sector. blinken was behind that letter to the 51 former intelligence officers to push a false narrative of hunter's laptop

being russian disinformation. resonating with the public despite it not being reported as it should be. 61% of voters believe blinken should be expweeched in reported role helping to suppress news in the 2020 presidential campaign. let's see what happens next. senator ron johnson promising to bring johnson up before it to testify. if he lies again, that's perjury and grounds for impeachment, ashley. >> ashley: republican senators they are accusing secretary of state antony blinken of lying under oath. they actually sent him a letter because your testimony is inaccurate congress and the public must rely on your record about your dealings with hunter biden. as much, you must preserve and provide all records related to hunter biden, his business dealings or his family's business dealings. so my question what is with all of these alleged lies under ♪ does being under oath mean nothing anymore? >> it appears it doesn't. ashley. that's the thing. and, again, this isn't he said,

she said oh, sources close to the secretary of state or sources close to the president say. there are receipts. there are emails contradicting what antony blinken has testified on. what he told ben i can't minute hall on this network just this week. i don't know how you could deny something when it's on paper. but that appears to be the strategy at this point. i guess they hope the media isn't going to to cover the way they should and it goes out to sea. there is a g.o.p. congress. there is a majority there. they will make sure they don't let go of this going they have accountability. i would hope, i would expect, guys. >> todd: men are women. and will lie under oath. karine jean-pierre claims illegal immigration is down 90%. watch this. >> you said yesterday that when it documents illegal migration you have seen it come down more than 90%.

where did that number come from? cpb tells us the number is 1 # 6,000 people more this fiscal year so far. >> i'm about to answer if you the dramatics could come down a little bit. >> pete: what's dramatic. >> i was speaking to the parolee program as you know the president put in place a parolee program to deal with certain countries and we have seen, the data has shown us it has gone down by more than 90%. that's what i was speaking. to say. >> todd: finishing our questions and doing our jobs as journalists is dramatic now, joe? >> i didn't see any dramatics outside of peter doocy. he was simply asking a question and calling her out on saying that immigration is down 90%. this is the same press secretary, guys, who insisted last month that joe biden took more questions from the press than his three predecessors combined and did so with a straight face. you look at the number of times karine jean-pierre fact-checked by politifact is 0.0.

it never happens. she can gaslight the american public and that press corps at this point and get away with it. because there is only a peter doocy calling her out on this stuff while everybody else it's silence and lambs, ashley. >> ashley: they really need to start speaking up. when she said that my jaw hit the floor as did peter doocy. thank you so much. with that "fox & friends" begins right now. >> ainsley: straight to a fox news alert. the illegal immigrant that was accuse of shooting and killing five of his neighbors is hauled off in handcuffs after four day manhunt. >> steve: they found francisco oropesa hiding in a closet under some laundry thanks to a tip at 5:15 yesterday afternoon. >> lucas tomlinson broke this story. hey, lucas. >> good morning, steve, ainsley and brian. the suspect had been deported four times dating back
