in that service, the procession, charles and camilla. you put on one hell of a hoe and made me very -- show and made me very proud to be british with. martha: what a great team and so great to work with you -- piers: great to see you guys. martha: we've had an extraordinary time watching all of this. piers: we'll see you next one. we don't know who -- what it is. martha: thanks for joining us for king charles iii coronation. ♪ ♪ >> god save the king! >> god save the king! over that.
7:01 am
the king's mother back in 1953 you could pass away. all eyes on who was in attendance for the festivities and who is not. prince william leading the royal line of succession followed by his son george, daughter charlotte and son louis. william's brother, prince harry, was in fifth place he was noticeably three rows back during the sun are she. and he restore british confidence in the royal family fewer people talking about today. will he preserve the bond between the united states and united kingdom all questions to be raised today the british ambassador the united states,
7:02 am
she is here former party leader is here too. eyes are so many others welcome everybody. hope you're royal weekend is kicking off just fine. a bit rainy of course in her majesty and his majesty's kingdom. right on the focus seems to be on what happens post this big event today. what are we setting the stage for today. greg and more in london with that. rex hates neil i am outside westminster abbey where believe it or not the bells are still clinging. and believe it or not the english rate is still falling. it does not matter we have seen quite inexperienced today. just a short while ago inside that grand cathedral we saw the crown the coronation crown a little bit adjusted but placed on the head of charles the third period that was it that was the crowning moment of this long day
7:03 am
of pomp and circumstance. there are a a lot of aspects. his son prince william the air is in a big way pledged allegiance to the king, first certifying king charles the third is the real thing. second saying i am there would indeed meet sometime in the future. that is what you had there with king charles the third period and prince william. and then it went on. we saw in fact, all of the member, participants at this ceremony walked back down the aisle. you are right there were young people and old people there. we did have prince harry without his wife, left behind. also prince andrew somewhat disgraced as we know. also without wife as well. the whole gang made it outside hereto where we are and got on,
7:04 am
a carriage that is about 280 years old. so bad and so crotchety the mother of a prince charles did not like to write on it. it was just too slow. but they took that ride a mile and a half back from where we are and westminster abbey to buckingham palace. into the huge throngs that have been a living and breathing through this wind and rain and noise for the past couple of days. they were ecstatic. finally we saw the family out on the balcony of buckingham palace waving to the crowds. that is a tradition that goes back as least a century or more. the crowds on the mall rushed up to the buckingham palace. at the same time, despite the weather there is a bit of a flyover there as well.
7:05 am
all and all, despite a lot of different bad weather conditions, the positivity and the emotions and the feelings of the people here to this new k king. the follow-on to the much beloved queen elizabeth ii was heartening. it is still being felt right here on the streets of london back to you. neil: great job greg palkot in london on that. bringing back and forth who was on the balcony who wasn't, who was sitting where the church and that her jonathan joins us now with royal experts extraordinaire. let me go to first of what the protocol is for the balcony appearance. i did not see prince harry up there. do not believe i saw prince andrew. what is the rule of thumb on that? >> are probably quite grateful to not be there for this beautiful's british spring weather we are enjoying the may be inside keeping warm.
7:06 am
in reality the way this works it's already a precedent that is been set straight the people who go out on the balcony are mostly the working royals. and of course that does not include prince andrew or prince harry for different reasons. and so the people who are out there were representing the side of the family that is serving as working royals day in day out for the british people. neil: we are learning prince harry is going to boogie out of there within a matter of an hour or two. he is not staying very long. what are we to make of that? has he had any audience with his father? lexi has a birthday party to get too. i'm sorry richard go ahead. >> i think the feeling is that the inducted as a form of guerrilla warfare against the royal family.
7:07 am
we saw oprah which was tremendously damaging recently we have the harrison memoirs of ingenious about that. i have to frankly say and i wish i could say otherwise on the day his joyous but the very, very deep indeed. frankly some of harry's language for example to describe when camilla arrived was horrible. so from what everything we understand in a horse things can change their completely unpredictable. they appear with megan taking archie's birth as an excuse not to appear and harry coming just for the ceremony we understand quite frankly obi very difficult for him to discuss anything with any of the royal family without it appearing to be in the next
7:08 am
book in some interview or whatever. i would suspect everything we have been told by unofficial spokesperson or sources is he's leaving. i am glad he came i think most people feel that. he is not popular in england and the polls seem to indicate people think he ought to have appeared because after all it is only reasonable king charles would want both of his sons. it's only natural. but frankly, given the way they have behaved i suspect he will may be already has for all i know or very soon returned to california. neil: back to you jonathan. you mention the balcony is for working royals. we are told even the number of royals working could be trumped considerably as the king tries to downsize not only the royal budget but real commitments. that is chafing some nerves. i am wondering how in the weeks and months ahead this is going to go? >> is already seen the slimming
7:09 am
down in recent years anyway. there various reasons but with its prince harry leaving her prince andrew stepping down or the deaths of prince philip and the late her majesty queen the second period it's preaches and said in the interview a few days ago the talk of slimming down his back in the days when there were a few more of them around. i'm not sure how much more slimming down there is to go. it's a pretty stream line team the king is probably looking at today is a great sign of success for the royal family as he wants to lead it forward. each monarch would of course have a monarchy that is in their image he will make changes from how his mother did it and quite rightly so. that's part of the nature of the monarchy it's formed by the personality and the preferences of the monarch on on the air in which they live. i think today's coordination reflects that as well its ancient ceremony it is eight religious ceremony at hartford we saw that respected and reflected in what happens. we also saw the modernization in the modern twist, all the many
7:10 am
nods toward the diversity of 21st century britain today for it weathers the gospel singers, whether it was the increased presence of women in important positions they are. women in the choir for example. whether it was inclusion of welsh in the proceedings. all of these things show a clear intention he wants to lead a monarchy and a nation that's modern forward thinking but also respects its traditions and history in today's coronation was aptly reflected about. neil: you guys know the subject are better than i but richer i was curious about the message drink king charles ascending. it's a message the late diana probably would have welcomed the democratization of expanding this to more average folks participating in a celebration of this magnitude. a lot of that has her imprint on it not that that was deliberate or intended. but when you think of that? >> i think it is a fair points in the sense that diana was all
7:11 am
for the monarchy. that makes the point a lot of this would have happened anyway. society changes. each monarch has their own particular style and things are have often moved on. monarchy if one looks at the preference of mail versus female it was abolished short time ago. diana was a deeply complex person was many weight deeply unhappy and brilliant like a meteor has to say yes you would have wished a different monarchy to the one that she experienced. but on the other hand it's terribly important there quite a lot of them they attacked the institution. glad it would not have only been able to do what she did regarding the campaign which was a success how did reaching out
7:12 am
for hiv-aids. she had not been royal that is so important. the republicans are making a lot of noise but there are very few of them still. >> is a brilliant points. that is true. without the gravitas of being royal, even a former royal it does carry clout. final word on that? jonathan she was all very good read on this would anymore develop is from london will keep you posted but back in this country we can back the fight over title 42 but it's only five days away from ending. that is the ruling that allows a lot of these cases be adjudicated for those trying to get into this country and mexico rather than the united states would come next thursday what happens when it's back in the united states. the throngs could start coming in. throng s art? like the incredible iphone 14, on us.

need. the border is not open. it has not been open and it will not be opened subsequent to m may 11. neil: alright, might find some disagreement about the border being open. about 8000 a day or going through it as we speak. that can build up to the may 11 moment the homeland security secretary was referring to it title 42 goes away ahead of that. the ministrations already committed 1500 troops to sort of work around what could be more traffic in the region. a lucas at the white house with more. >> before hey neil. we forget the title 42 many people wonder why president biden did not attend coronation today. note sitting u.s. president has ever attended a coronation that includes president eisenhower back in 1953 for queen eliz elizabeth. the first lady did attend and present biden to the modern-day salute and a tweet saying quote congratulations to king charles the third and queen camellia
7:17 am
enduring's is a strength for both of our peoples. i am proud to represent the historic occasion. as he mentioned internationally as was the situation on the border present biden dhs chief went down there thursday and friday and spoke yesterday. >> the situation at the border is a very serious one. and a very challenging. at a very difficult one. we are building lawful pathways that will provide a safe and orderly way for individuals who qualify for relief under united states law to reach the united states safely. >> the tens of thousands of additional migrants are expected to come to the border with the repeal of title 42 as you mentioned and five days. present biden is dispatch 1500 soldiers to the border something many democrats criticize when then president trump order them to the border. senator thom tillis to extend it
7:18 am
title 42 for another two years. tillis spoke why he spoke some democrats will support his bill. >> i think their increasing number of democrats who recognize the homeland security at risk and their own political risk is going to be greatly heightened after title 42 comes down. biden saying he has to do this i think is disingenuous. it was notable secretary mayorkas speaking at the southern border still refuses a call the situation of crisis. neil: interesting what you are saying about present going to coronation the last chance lindemann harry truman would have been in office. you don't have a lot of constant historical references there. ask of a slick air travel and travel in general isn't what it is today there's no question pretty to go back a few hundred years. in 1812 he would not have a sitting u.s. president going
7:19 am
overseas for any future coronations. neil: is a lot of bad blood there there's that was then this is now. that was a doozy. thank you my friend, lucas tomlinson at the white house. back to the border of texas department of public safety. thank you for coming. you always have your work cut out for you, my friend. but come thursday, you could really have your work cut out for you. what are you expecting? >> good morning the numbers have been increasing the last several weeks especially brownsville, texas and what's happening at el paso you have actual migrants sleeping in the streets. children sleeping in the streets. with title 42 in place regarding seeing a significant increase amounts illegal immigration between the ports of entry. just yesterday alone over 9000 encounters across the southwest border. that's probably where the single highest daily encounters we have experienced in the past two years. that really tells you the numbers are starting to increase.
7:20 am
i have spoken to some of the migrants in brownsville, texas they tell me the reason there the reason they're frustrated it's not working there's a lot of glitches in the system. there are long wait times. plus a family and friends have already crossed into ports of entry they've been released into the country that's what they're doing now. neil: i think, correct me if i'm wrong, there upwards of 40000 on the mexican side of the border. it's gotten a lot more crowded ahead of title 42. the fear that is in mass and will pile over our side of the country. that might be a little exaggerated, but what are you looking for? as soon as that goes away you could make an argument it becomes a bit of a rallying cry that to know if they are captured their cases are going to be adjudicated, processed here not in mexico so what you think happened? >> a right were up to try to keep a close eye on the shoulders and mexico that's a receipt tens of thousands of
7:21 am
immigrants waiting for title 42. but with that we still have a significant piece right now between the ports of entry. it's very important to have policies consequences in place. the administration has two years to put something in place leading up to this day nothing has been put in place at sourcing the mass of a rush at the border. i do not foresee we are going to see a massive surge all at once but will probably see overwhelming numbers, overwhelming crossing throughout the day throughout the various sectors. obviously want to prevent what we saw in del rio in 2021 with the her rations. we have additional resources. mobilize additional state troopers and national guard to the specific areas receiving increased crossings and it brownsville paso, they put up extra temporary barriers such as fencing. razor wire but we are doing as much as we can as a state to pay at the end of the day it's on the federal government to do
7:22 am
something about this. to stop with taking place right now. neil: will keep all eyes on deck thursday. thank you for all your hard work trying to deal with all this politics aside it is a massive issue. were going to exploring that in more detail with laredo texas mayor shipley the role these 1500 troops head into the reason will have. in handling this increased traffic. and then we are on to the banks a growing number of americans concerned about the safety of the money they have in those banks. the banks themselves. after this. ead by getting a va cash out home loan from newday. pay off your high rate credit cards. pay yourself cash. lowe's knows the first step to motivation is inspiration. so, we've got new everything. new flooring, new paint, new patio sets, new pillows. i can keep going if you want me to. you got this. and we got you.

that you could make that situation worse? >> it has to give you some positive. if you like the economy is still very hot, the unemployment rate is 3.4%. but ever tightening that you are going to need to do has got to be taking into account of what the banking systems impact. six you probably recognize also network in the obama ministration he's a chicago fed president. he was among those of federal reserve members who unanimously hiked interest rates this past week another quarter points. the bank situation notwithstanding. but that bank situation is getting to be worrisome for a lot of folks for even if they are not affected by this directly they are worried about the safety of their money. madison has more on that. >> hi neil. nearly half of americans are worried about the safety of

their money in banks because of these recent bank failures. i want to bring in kevin i'm interrupting his breakfast. were you bank with an are you at all worried about the security of your money in the bank? >> i currently bank with capitol one emma chase. i've got two accounts. support seems like the smaller banks the ones who are failing. of course you could get nervous i could roll over too some the larger banks. i do worry about the commercial loans out there now. i feel they've never really recovered especially around here in manhattan. i think there are some bad loans out there that affect long-term banks by do not feel the administration not paying attention to that when you swing over here to willie. tell me about you do you fill your money safe in the bank and what are you thinking about the open banking system? >> not a lot of confidence right now the current mistress just sold the economy. rates are high. thinking about maybe moving to a
7:28 am
new house and getting an equity loan. for middle-class like me and the rates are out of control. i cannot keep up with something like that. so with the federal reserve there's not a lot of confidence right now. >> tell me, you think about buying a house for it how will be adjusted because of rates? >> it is crazy. i am a middle-class guy with the family with kids. we own a house now. but we are growing and we need to grow and we can't because the economy is not and it's not helping us. quick so you go, thank you much guys i appreciate your time. the relatives were not taking money out of the bank there is concern because the ongoing issues. but, at the end of the debt you've just got to keep moving forward neil i'll send it back to you. neil: thank you for that that scott martin the wealth genus on this. help me with this, scott. it was a jekyll and hyde week for bank stocks. one day they are tumbling, the next day looking at pack west,
7:29 am
that stock was down 78% on thursday, up 82% on friday. all over the map. i do not think we are out of this but i'm worried about how much the spreads. >> it spreads and it spreads eagerly for medicines interview the two men sitting down where you stored confidence that's really where it starts and ends with respect to people leaving their money in the bank putting their money in the bank. love how you put it to respect of the having their days were good day, bending, so sit in the sky like my life. and unfortunately and banking is not a good. when things going on in the marketplace you see them reflected in the stock market the very bank ever tried intrude hard earned money we worked our lives for and that bank might be going under. it might be putting in receivership but by something else you freak out. neil: a lot of people who should not be freaking out are freaking out for not saying the making of a contagion. i think i shared the story and
7:30 am
foxbusiness if you don't get you should demand, i digress. relink the idea he's at a regional bank not as well off as you. i went out of my bank i think i should be parking at a big bank. we have seen that happen. jp morgan chase controls one out of five deposits especially to scooping up first republic. so ironically the one thing we wanted to avoid after the financial meltdown having banks too big to fail, now they are too big to ignore. >> too big to bail to? that's going to get to be a big number can you martin the government coming in this is not running any contagion or fear but what if j.p. morgan has trouble? we have trillions of dollars. that part of the aspect of reinstituting these contagion -like effects is almost like being human just to a t of how we get so wrapped up in the emotion of things when in reality might group we have been

7:39 am
that fool you, trickery. i am into honest things but i hear something i know that is real and i do not want to be fed a bunch of stuff and be told it's really get faked out and converted. it's part of the diversions we have this country now. neil: what stood out you're one of the earliest to cite this for you cowrote or authored a letter with one her + elon musk among them saying essentially slow down here, take a six-month pause. but, it is fair to say unless everybody does the same six month pause someone is going to be racing ahead, right? >> i never look at the world that way that's like fear tactics like fears and lies that get us in the wars and things. i will not get into that camp. technology is already always have been here for a human being can do so much for you give them a hammer they could do more that is technology. give them a wheel they can do more. personal computers give personal computer and a person can do more than they could before.

i artificial intelligence is the latest endpoint of that. which is able to gather information, organize it and do things better than a human. but on the other hand show google 80000 pictures of dogs in google could recognize a dog faster than any human. is that intelligence? my 1-year-old granddaughter sees a dog and knows it has a limbs in the limbs soft and hard and flexible. and the dog has an eye and decides was going to go looks around. my granddaughter knows what a dog is. artificial intelligence just misses out on a lot of stuff. artificial intelligence is only going to be at the perusal of humans. now, there are bad actors in the human world that try to trick us in fake out jesse with his daughter's voice. we are getting hit was so much spam. things try to take over our accounts and our passwords. try to trick them into them they are getting clever and clever

it's horrible to think people are falling for and they are right and left. it pays for itself very easily. ai being the latest evolution of computers at our disposal is going to increase that. neil: i wonder if this is as innocent as some of the technology you were coming up and steve jobs and apple one computer came out apple ii is groundbreaking. that was your baby. it was an innocent start to what was a promising technology, the rest is all history. there are more worries about ai. i am wondering they are justified. they are prematurely feeling this? books are overly fearing it. oh my gosh a lot of jobs will disappear because ai can construct content very well. ai can construct content but also horrible problems some are like hallucination some takes assigned windows totally inaccurate.
