political fight in the capitol over it. there is much more bipartisan support for israel. also for figuring out a way for there to be peace in the middle east if there ever can be. president trump made strides on the abraham accords and now it looks like it is not working. >> bill: this rocket exchange at night should be a concern to everybody. >> dana: back to the border now. watch here. >> it's not a problem of resources but a problem of policy. if we had the proper policy we could control the border tomorrow. we've already proven that. we don't need to throw more money at this and don't have to have taxpayers shoulder the burden. we need proper enforcement stances. if we have that we can stop this tomorrow. >> dana: border agents sounding alarms expecting an explosive migrant surge to overwhelm the border when title 42 ends with hours left until the floodgates open. >> bill: good morning.

good morning at home. policy allowing for quick migrant expulsion expires tonight. border patrol dealing with a number of daily apprehensions. biden administration warning the crisis could be getting worse admitting that tough times are straight ahead. >> we are are clear eyed about the challenges we're likely to face in the days and weeks ahead which have the potential to be very difficult. >> bill: with us now texas governor greg abbott and border czar mike banks. good morning to you and mr. banks, thank you for your time. i know you have been out and about. what have you seen out there and what do you think the american people need to understand from your experience, sir? >> so there are two things that people need to understand. one i think it was brandon judd that you were having giving you some comments earlier. so brandon judd was spot on in this regard. that is we need the policies that were put in place by the

trump administration. remember this, three years ago we had the lowest number of border crossings in decades because the trump administration put into place the remain in mexico, title 42, end catch and release. built a wall and sent a message that illegal immigration is not going to be tolerated in the united states. if biden had not eliminated all of those policies we wouldn't have the catastrophe we have today. however. >> bill: the question was directed to mr. banks and i want our audience to know i believe this is the first time you have done a television interview. what we understand about your job and duties that you are up and down the border every day seven days a week and 52 weeks a year. what does america need to understand about what you have seen and what texas is going through, sir? >> thank you. so what america needs to see and

understand this crisis has been created by the administration, right? 24 years of border patrol prior to coming to work for the governor and the fact is that until they stopped catch and release, until there is a consequence for actions for someone entering this country illegally, they will continue to come. the border patrol needs to be allowed to do their job and taken forcement and return people back to the countries. what it's doing to texas, the second part of your question, it is devastating texas and the communities in texas. we cannot continue to sit back and allow the federal government to allow thousands upon thousands of people into texas and for the rest of the united states for that matter. most of those migrants will continue on forward into the united states. this is a federal government problem and texas is standing up to try to do what the biden administration is refusing to do. >> dana: governor abbott, yesterday president biden said that the border is going to be chaotic for a while when title

42 ends. how do you think he defines for a while? >> for the rest of his tenure as president of the united states is the reality. think about the contrast of what the president just said and what you've seen secretary mayokas say when he is repeatedly said the border is not open, the border is closed. and it's nothing but a lie. the fact of the matter is the border has been open under the biden administration enticing people to come here illegally. that process will continue unless and until, as mike banks said, the federal government will start to enforce title eight of the united states laws that allows the united states to return back to the country of origin those coming across the border illegally. >> dana: mr. banks, one of the things we're curious about, partial solution has been the barbed wire placed in certain

places that we have seen some video of that. is that helping? >> it is absolutely helping. if you look at the area in brownsville, texas where the tactical border force was down there and started repelling people from coming into the country you have seen a dramatic decrease in that area. a dramatic decrease. the fact is where there is deterrents, you fix the problem. until the federal government starts doing their job and providing consequences and deterrents the state of texas will continue addressing the illegal flow everywhere it pops up. >> bill: title eight apparently is going to go into effect. loosely defined if you cross the border and did not seek asylum in mexico first, you can be kicked out. is that happening? do you expect that to happen? >> well, the biden administration says it will start happening. but the biden administration has said a whole lot of things during his tenure of president

that's never happened. and so i have 0 trust the president or the people working under him will actually enforce the laws that already exist in the united states and expel migrants and secure the border. >> dana: gentlemen, thank you for your time as we kick down to the end of title 42. your work has already been busy and about to get more so. thank you. >> bill: thank you. to mr. banks, your first appearance well done. some images are stunning. you have to stop and look at this sometimes. this is from our border crew in brownsville, texas, with these drone shots. dana, that's -- that goes for as far as we can see. that drone is probably 1,000 feet in the air. >> dana: there is a lot to cover here and the biden administration, they don't want the talk about this. they would like to talk about anything else. they won't have a choice. even other media is having to report on this now. >> bill: you see that razor wire is what they put in place

yesterday. it is our understanding this will go for miles and what they will try and do is find areas where the migrants are trying to find a route to cross and they will go to that spot, set up the razor wire and then assign troops to guard that spot. >> dana: they're doing what they can. >> bill: maybe it's a case of whack-a-mole. texas is on its own in a lot of ways right now. to our crew down there, thank you for sharing that with our viewers and we'll get you back there momentarily. we can go thousands of miles away because northern states and communities far from that border are bracing for what's next. cities and towns across the state of maine are at maximum capacity as migrants head north looking for job opportunities and shelter. portland has been forced to open a new shelter to handle the influx since the start of the year and madison is there with the latest from there. what are they telling you? hello. >> good morning, bill. we're in front of the center

opened as that emergency shelter in april. before they even opened as an emergency shelter, 170 of the 300 spots were taken and by the end of the week, the expo center was at capacity. that's because since the beginning of this year, portland, maine has seen 1,200 migrants come to their city. that number is only expected to increase with the end of title 42. the migrants that make their way here are mostly from south africa, congo. they fly to south america, make their way to the u.s./mexico border and cross into the u.s. once they are here in the sanctuary city of portland, they expect housing and resources. local leaders and nonprofits say it has gotten to a point where they simply can't keep up. >> whatever you plan now, before you even plan for it, it is already at capacity. how do you plan? are we ever going to get to a point of where we planned enough to address the need? i don't believe so.

>> the city is simply tapped out. they tell us that title 42 ending will change little because they simply have no resources left. this fiscal year alone, the city has spent 26.5 million on general assistance. that is a 345% increase in spending since 2019. that total includes everyone who uses ga but the vast majority of that is asylum seekers. where we stand is 2,000 miles from the nearest point of the southern border. even here they are bracing for an increase in migrants with title 42 set to expire in just a few hours. >> bill: from the state of maine. thank you, madison. >> if you look at what has gone to our country, our country has gone to hell. you look at the taxes, you look at inflation, what's happened to inflation, it is destroying our country. >> bill: that from new hampshire and a town hall last night in a

way it may have felt like 2016. former president trump returning to the stage and letting loose on a lot of fronts. what does it mean? bret baier will join us and examine that. >> dana: a chicago police officer shot and killed. now several suspects being charged with murder. an update on that next. >> bill: a homeless camp called the zone. the city of phoenix now moving in and clearing it out. we'll tell you why. >> where do you think we're going to go if they take all the housing and all our tents and everything away from us, where do you think we're going to go? with utility prices rising and...

city's south side. the terrible story mike tobin, you are live in chicago. >> those four teenagers, all including the 16-year-old now charged as adults. despite their young age they had established long resumes as career criminals. the night that officer preston was killed she was the sixth victim of the night in an unchecked crime spree. the four teenagers charges range from murder to robbery and arson for the car they allegedly set on fire. their spree started with a robbery of a 33-year-old woman on the south side. they went to another location, hijacked a red kia, went to another location knocked two women on the ground and robbed them and robbed a man of his phone and keys. preston just finished her shift and still in the police uniform. she fought back. she was shot twice in the ambush and died. prosecutors said one of the gunman returned to her body, stole her gun and they went off and burned the kia.

a key piece of evidence comes from the 16-year-old jalen fraser dragging to a friend. >> he asked the friend if he had seen the news about the police officer being killed. defendant fraser said it was his work. the friends inquired about what happened and the fraser told them they were out robbing people and saw a single female in a car. >> preston was a three-year veteran of the police force. may 13th she was due to graduate in a master's degree in jurisprudence >> i felt sorry because nobody told them they were loved, nobody told them that you can do anything like i constantly preach to my daughters. >> and according to the evidence presented this crime spree was allegedly sparked when the

girlfriend of one of the defendants asked him to come up with some money for a barbecue. back to you. >> dana: senseless. >> president biden traveling to a new york district. he was there to talk about the economy and debt ceiling. he had a few words for our next guest when he said the following. >> president biden: republican congressman lawlor is here as well. he is on the other team but the kind of guy that when i was in the congress, he was the kind of republican i was used to dealing with. he is not one of these maga republicans, whichly talk a little bit about. i don't want to get him in trouble by saying anything nice about him or negative about him. thanks for being here. that's the way we used to do it all the time. >> bill: mike lawlor is with me now. good morning to you. a tweet that went before that appearance that said we have a sacred obligation for the men and women who fought to protect

our freedom. i think it was directed toward you, was it? how did it go? >> it was and when the white house announced this trip to my district, they painted it as a trip to take on republicans like me and cast us as quote, unquote, maga republicans and extremists. obviously i don't think they thought i would accept the invitation to come. i did because the president was coming to my district and i have long believed that we all have an obligation to sit down and talk. so i went there with that intention. the president gave me the opportunity to meet with him for about 15 minutes before his remarks. and we had a very direct and pointed conversation on the debt ceiling and the migrant crisis facing our country. and i told him in no uncertain terms for me i have had three parameters on this debt ceiling negotiation, the president needs to negotiate with the speaker, we must cut spending and we

cannot default. and i reminded him that chuck schumer can say until he is blue in the face he wants a clean debt ceiling. he doesn't have the votes to do that. we need to work together. the president will meet with the speaker on friday and encouraged him to take that opportunity to really make progress on a deal like the joe biden of old when he was vice president and worked with john boehner on a deal. >> bill: did you get the impression he was willing to budge on the spending aspect? if so he might find a compromise there. >> in the long-term he does understand there is a spending problem. whether or not he is willing to budge here in the debt ceiling negotiations, you know, he held firm in his speech afterwards that there should be a clean debt ceiling and cuts should not be implemented. i think it was a very frank

conversation and i got the sense that joe biden does want to come to a compromise. i hope he does. i wrote an open letter to him in this morning's "new york post" basically imploring him to do just that. come to a compromise. >> bill: that might help his numbers. eric adams, you mentioned the migrants. talking about legal and safety concerns with our state partners and while we have pause tonight, our plans have not changed suggesting that more migrants will be bused up to upstate new york. when you talk to him about the migrants, did you ask him point blank why this is happening? >> i told the president in no uncertain terms we need to secure our border. with title 42 ending, we're expecting tens of thousands upwards of 80,000 migrants coming to cross our southern border, many seeking asylum. it is crippling municipalities all across the country,

including in new york. eric adams and new york city, a sanctuary city, have taken in over 60,000 migrants and they can't handle it. they have finally come to that realization. the mayor taking the drastic step to pause the requirement for housing. and now dealing with a crisis of his own making, where he tried to send hundreds, if not thousands of migrants to municipalities north of new york city. he does not have the authority. he does not have the legal jurisdiction, and these municipalities have their own town codes and laws that govern. he was trying to turn hotels into new york city shelters and so a supreme court judge intervened. >> bill: that still may happen. they haven't given up. short time left. you told him that you need a secure border in america. did he answer that point that

you made? >> he did agree that we need to do more to secure the border. he said we need to bring more border agents down and need more personnel to handle the asylum cases. i told him house republicans are passing hr2 today and that while he may not like everything in it, we need to work together to secure our border and he certainly agreed that it is a problem. i told him look, it is spilling out into my district, my constituents do not want this. we need -- this is a humanitarian crisis and all of us have a responsibility to work together to fix our broken immigration system once and for all. it has not been done since ronald reagan and bill, i was born in 1986. we need to make change and it needs to happen now. >> bill: thank you for your time. we'll stay in contact. mike lawlor, the republican from new york. thank you. >> joe biden was actively involved in this criminal

mike emanuel live in d.c. with more. hi, mike. >> bill: the former president weighed in on a number of major issues facing the country today such as the ongoing battle in washington over the government's ability to borrow more money, the debt ceiling. >> i say to the republicans out there, congressman, senators, if they don't give you massive cuts, you will have to do a default. and i don't believe they are going to do a default because i think the democrats will absolutely cave because you don't want to have that happen. >> with title 42 set to expire leading to a major change in the u.s. border policy and expected growing crisis at the border mr. trump did not rule out reviving family separations at the southern border. >> when you have that policy people don't come. if the family hears they will be separated, they love their family, they don't come. >> there were also questions about the war in ukraine, the former president says he wants people to stop dying and insists

he could resolve it quickly. >> if i'm president, i will have that war settled in one day, 24 hours. i'll meet with zelensky. they both have weakness east and strengths and within 24 hours the war will be settled and over. >> after the town hall the biden campaign reacted. it's simple. do you want four more years of that? if you don't, pitch into our campaign. chris christie, a potential candidate, slammed the former president on the ukraine war calling him putin's puppet. >> dana: thank you. >> bill: let's bring in bret baier of "special report." i watched last night and i'm sure you did, too. what did you think? >> well, i think two campaigns were very happy. the trump campaign and the biden campaign. both for different reasons but i think the former president steam rolled a lot of times in that town hall. he got his points out on cnn. for an hour he was in front of

what appeared to be a friendly audience clapping and laughing at different moments. i think the reaction from trump world was very positive. from biden worlde just mentione from president biden do you want more of this for four more years? they look to run against the former president, believe they are well positioned for that. so i think the fallout is that the former president probably overall had a good night despite the fact he raised a lot of eyebrows with some of the things he said. >> dana: you have done these before. what do you think about a format like that? what's interesting is that presumably there is a gop primary that's underway. you have many republican candidates that are out there but none of them are really out attacking president trump at all. it is almost as if cnn and others, maybe across the country, have presumed the donald trump will get the nomination so he is out there without any sort of competition from the other republican

candidates. a lot of things that the moderator, who i think did a fine job last night. she asked him a lot of things that republican primary voters if they wanted to have a debate amongst the primary issues for the republican party, that really didn't happen last night. >> no. it took a lot of time on january 6th and 2020 and so on substance there was a lot there but you are right, so far there hasn't been a big push against the former president in the gop primary. the prospect of chris christie getting in and being that fact for, maybe governor desantis becomes more forward leaning against the former president. we don't know yet. this was an hour of time that the former president used from his perspective pretty effectively. i will say a couple of things stuck out. one is saying that maybe the u.s. should go to default. that really shocked some folks on capitol hill, i can tell you that privately.

and in the negotiations of how to get to an answer there, some people up there, leadership-wise are saying maybe wasn't helpful. >> bill: let's talk about what happened yesterday with james comer 24 hours ago right here on this program. "wall street journal" writes about the biden family business and they talk about the bidens have a right to make a living but one important question is what hunter did to earn these payments. fair question, i think, right? the media coverage, however, was can we say missing? major networks, right, had a combined 0 minutes of coverage for the new findings on the biden family last night. check out "the new york times" earlier today. the headline is house republicans do not connect joe biden to the rest of these 20llcs. so -- >> listen, we do it all the time. we look through the prism of what happens if this was on the other foot. if this investigation and these nuggets of information and

details were coming out against former president trump when he was president or his family. i think that there would be a lot different coverage of that. the right to point out there is not, as of yet, the direct line. but there are certainly nuggets here that could get there and the investigation is proceeding with not only whistleblowers but facts and bank records and where is the business that brings in the money? what is the business? i think this is the beginning of what could be a snowball but it has got to actually get somewhere in order for other people to pick it up, i think. >> dana: see how people feel on that one as well. see you tonight on "special report." thanks. >> bill: dana, a romance that never got off the ground and that is today's hemmer's celebrity news. tom cruise and shakira were spotted hanging out at a race.

they report the top gun star was extremely interested in the singer. u.s. weekly says that shakira has no interest in dating him. so apparently this thing is grounded. and you are okay with that. this could have been love in the air. >> dana: i think that he has an incredible track record that works against that notion. and i like shakira and i think she should not do that. if you are getting pictures with him, could be done. >> bill: as for now. >> dana: thank you for the update on hemmer celebrity news. thank you very much. a key document on america's chaotic exit from afghanistan the center of a heated back and forth between the white house and congress. what republicans are threatening if the administration doesn't hand it over. plus the return of senator dianne feinstein prompting democrats to tee up a flurry of

>> dana: democrats set to advance several controversial judicial nominees today after senator dianne feinstein returned to washington for her first time in months. during her extended absence members of her own party who were unable to ram through nominations without her vote or even bipartisan support, of course, were calling for her to step down. so far today she is a no show but back in washington. aishah hosni is there as well live on capitol hill. hi. >> good morning, dana.

we do have this developing situation unfolding right here in the senate. that meeting is underway right now and if we show you pictures of it live just outside the entrance and inside, so far senator dianne feinstein has not shown up. now, this is a bit of a wait and see game here because we're being told by senate aides that she is expected to arrive late but really anything can happen here. her appearance, dana, would mean the committee's 11 democrats would have enough votes today to advance nominees without any republicans. feinstein returned to the capitol yesterday in a wheelchair. she told reporters she was feeling much better after a bout of shingles. she was expected to vote along party lines today despite calls from democrats and republicans to step down amid lingering questions about how fit she is. that will only grow if she doesn't show up today.

>> we have a closely divided house and senate. every vote matters. showing up is a responsibility. illness is one thing but long-term incapacitation is another. >> here is a list of judges up for votes today. several of them don't have bipartisan support including michael delaney facing scrutiny for his role in a sexual assault case and also another one whose confirmation hearing went viral in january when she was unable to answer basic questions about the constitution. watch. >> tell me what article five of the constitution does. >> article five is not coming to mind at the moment. >> okay. how about article two? >> neither is article two. >> back to feinstein, dana. if she does not show up this morning it will create quite a predicament for senate democrats who have been telling fox this

morning that she was not rushed back. >> dana: aishah hosni on capitol hill, stay in touch. >> bill: power plant emissions at the center of president biden's green energy push. the white house announced new regulations and then in turn democratic senator joe manchin threatening to block all of biden's epa nominees. how will that work out? grady trimble. fox business, college park, maryland. what's the story? >> the environmental protection agency just announced a proposed rule that says it will cut back on greenhouse gas emissions at power plants in an effort to fight climate change. in order to comply with this rule, coal and natural gas-fired plants would have to install billions of dollars worth of carbon capture or hydrogen fuel equipment. if they don't meet the new standards some plants could have to close. they admit the rule will raise electricity rates but

negotiable. here is a few moments ago. >> this is about seizing the moment and understanding that we have an obligation to not only leave behind a healthier planet for generations that come after us, but to leave behind a fairer and more just society. >> it is not just gop lawmakers pushing back against this proposal. you mentioned democratic senator joe manchin. he says the epa and biden administration are prioritizing their climate agenda over energy security. he is threatening to oppose all epa nominees until the biden administration stops what he calls government overreach. the u.s. chamber of commerce has this to say. regulations must be grounded in what is technologically feasible and commercially available. going beyond that, as this regulation does, could threaten electric reliability and raise energy prices to unsustainable

levels, harming the entire economy. the epa faced similar criticism when it proposed that rule trying to get more americans in electric vehicles just a few weeks ago. both rules will almost certainly face legal challenges. bill. >> bill: something to watch. grady thanks, in maryland today. >> dana: time is winding down for secretary of state antony blinken. michael mccaul is giving him until today to turn over what he calls the dissent cable on the botched afghanistan withdrawal. or face a contempt of congress charge. the committee says blinken's office has ignored many subpoenas for the documents and has missed many deadlines. >> i think they need to pay the money. stop playing and help the people that they did wrong to. all the work they got done free they need to pay for that. >> that is the discussion about reparations in california. a panel is recommending millions
