>> greg: thanks to everyone. "fox news @ night" is next. i love you, america. [applause] >> welcome to america's late news, "fox news @ night." i am trace gallagher in los angeles. but cannot, they crossed the border illegally and oftentimes get into additional trouble with the law. now one major california city since the taxpayers will pick up the tab. for defending illegal immigrants. educators in massachusetts are furious that middle school students at a private event began chanting usa. but we begin tonight with a case that could change how we protect ourselves. the grand jury has now indicted daniel penny, the 24 roald

marine veteran will face trial for the chokehold death of jordan neely on a new york city subway train. ashley strohmier is live in the newsroom with the breaking information. ashley? >> reporter: hi, there. a man who put a new york subway ride in a fatal chokehold will be returning to court. daniel penny will be arraigned following an indictment by a grand jury that he has been out on bond after being initially charged by manhattan prosecutors for manslaughter. in the second degree after the death of jordan neely on may 1st. the grand jury indictment is a procedural step that will allow the criminal case to move forward. penny's attorney maintains the defense that his client believed neely was a threat to himself and passengers. >> the standard in new york state is not -- you don't have to wait until someone physically attacks. you don't have to wait until somebody is lying on the ground or worse. the standard is whether a reasonable person in my client's position would have feared --

would have feared imminent harm. >> reporter: district attorney alvin bragg's office has so far not commented on the indictment. but new york's mayor, eric adams, said in a statement to the associated press, "i have the utmost faith in the judicial court process and now that the grand jury has indicted daniel penny, a trial and justice can move forward. the statement of penny's, appearance has yet to be determined. but it is worth noting that the indictment could include other charges but they are under field -- seal until that day. back to you. >> trace: ashley strohmier, thank you. it's been in the author of the upcoming book "was killing america," talk radio host jason rantz. great to on. we don't know the exact charges because the indictment has not been unsealed. what are your thoughts on not a big surprise, jason. but still, notable. >> it is not a surprise but it is a disappointment at least

based on the fact that we have right now because this is not going to change the way we defend ourselves. it is going to mean we don't defend ourselves until it is too late. when you have someone on a subway or anywhere who is screaming their intent and they are dealing with potentially a mental illness, concern, you got other people concern. what are we supposed to do? are we supposed to wait until they strike? are we supposed to take that risk? i would argue there's going to be a jury that says, no, of course not. and it comes down to one of those things instead of right or wrong it has become clear, and that is kind of the sad part for daniel penny. >> 100%. i do think that there's a lot of racial elements and politics playing into this. i don't take if the races were reversed that this would be the same story or gain the same level of interest on the left that this has become. i think they liked the fact that they can turn this into some sort of racial argument, which there's no indication that that

played a role at all in any of this. and it, it can still see folks on the radical left pushing that narrative. >> trace: meantime, the opposite, special counsel since before the 222 -- 2022 midterms, karine jean-pierre said mega maga republicans, which are related to hatch act and the white house doubling down. they are going to use the word maga every chance they get, jason. >> i love this because their argument is so silly. they are seeing, what was used during the last administration which is true. that was the name of policy. that was not the name of the political group that you are targeting. the end of the day, i'm going to be honest. i care about the hatch act. you know, these are politicians. they are going to be political. they are going to be political at the white house. the whole point of what karine jean-pierre does is to spit on behalf of the white house for political purposes. >> trace: listen, i had to look up the hatch act and i had to

write it down to make sure that i read it to you quickly. just so we are all the same page, the pride flag, prominently, more than the american flag and higher than the american flag, something. here is tulsi gabbard, according here the biden and mr. shinn continues to push their woke transit agenda with a new pride month display which could not only violate u.s. law, it is offensive and shows complete disrespect for the flight. so many of my brothers and sisters in uniform fought and died for. i mean, republicans are now pushing for a new bill that is in federal buildings you can only part of the american flag except on very special occasions. what is your thought on this? >> yeah, i generally accept that. i think that is a good idea. i would just caution, and served as not to push too hard on this as much as i understand the concern and agree with it. but this was pandering. that was offensive. in the sense that it was even comparing this to the american flag. however, i don't think the average person looks at this and

it gets offended. i think when we focus on the issues around gender identity, the 17,000 different genders we are telling kids that they can choose from, the surgeries and wanted to move forward in that way, i think focusing on those issues are winning battles for us. and i don't see this as a winning battle to the moderate. we need to win over. >> trace: yeah. jason rantz, good to have you. thank you. >> thanks. from in the meantime, we have been watching illegal immigrants fled across the border. many have come to california where they oftentimes get in more trouble with the law. now san diego county has decided that taxpayers should be the ones who put the bill for defending illegal immigrants. mayor richard daley is here with his take on the plan but first, jeff paul joins us live on set. good evening. >> reporter: good evening. now san diego board of supervisors have voted to keep it around with a budget of

$5 million. people who face possible deportation have a right to an attorney. that right only helps if they can afford one, at least when it comes to immigration. after the immigrant rights legal defense program comes into the picture. its aim is to offer employers to help immigrants, asylum-seekers, and those facing deportation. according to the [indistinct] of justice these programs make the san diego county similar defense funds can be found in 55 jurisdictions around 21 states. what makes san diego county [indistinct] from the others, is the first one to offer the services and the location that is along the u.s.-mexico border. supporters of these programs is a offering up legal representation only makes the immigration system a little bit more humane but actually the county money. attorneys can reduce court time and attention time and judges

don't have to spend as much time trying to explain to plaintiffs and help them understand the complex proceedings. the state assembly member proposed a similar program that would impact all of california earlier in the year as of now it doesn't look like it is going anywhere in sacramento. >> trace: thank you. let's bring in mayor richard daley and the whole thing is sometimes you get, you incentivize this stuff, mayor and it worries some people. san diego supervisor said the following quoting here, the first border region in the united states to provide free legal press representation for immigrants refugees and asylum seekers facing removal proceedings. we are declaring with one voice that our justice system must be based on facts and laws could not access to and resources. she says based on facts and laws he forgets that once you cross the border, you have broken the law. >> that is right, trace. and asked him a check to immigration is a federal issue. the fact that we are now

requiring san diego county taxpayers to foot the bill for the legal defense and immigration court, federal issue is really a head scratcher especially in the context of we just had a report the other-day homelessness is up 22% year over year. robberies are at a 10-year high. we are having this housing affordability issue. is a head scratcher that this would be the priority for san diego county. >> trace: so many stories. toward the southern border and they all have social media and they are all following the laws and rules very closely. they know when someone is incentivizing, when some state or some jurisdiction is offering stuff, that is where they go. >> you are exactly right. and so san diego county, we see about 50 of these hearings on any given day. and so this new funding source for this legal defense fund will undoubtedly attract more immigrants into san diego county which has other local implications as well. >> trace: it is interesting because gavin newsom was on sean

hannity today and he said this about handling the border. watch. >> look, we will deal with it. come on. this is california. >> i know it is california. >> we can handle it. i'm a border state. ron desantis is not. i know he is desperate to get into the action. >> trace: this constant battle with ron desantis. california can't handle this and new york can't handle this and as we learned, illinois, chicago cannot handle this. the influx of these migrants, california even though it is a sanctuary state cannot handle this kind of foot. >> they really can't. especially when you consider that local and state governments across all of california are actually failing to fulfill their core responsibilities as it is, so the fact that we are now turning our attention away from these core responsibilities, public station, to focus on immigration. is very questionable. >> trace: i want to talk about crime.

i know you are in san diego. it is across california. it is sky high levels. the westfield mall pulling out of san francisco. we see it up and down the state. california retailers association said the following. the problem now is people who are drug addicted who have mental health issues, they can legal go into stores and they will steal. they will sell those items out on the street. they then continue their habit or continue a destructive lifestyle and that is what we are seeing. i mean, this is, again, it took about that migrants being given social media clues about where to go. it is the same thing. these retail gangs are picking on the targets and cvses as they know it works. >> you are right. we have seen lawlessness spread throughout california due to the state's soft on crime policies where they allow theft up to $900. it is basically a misdemeanor. and now we are seeing believe it or not despite the rising crime,

we are actually seeing our jails at a lower population than they were pre-covert. we have rising crimes. but we have a decreasing jail publishing. what is going on here? we are not actually putting bad people behind bars. were not actually protecting the rest of the public that one clean and safe open spaces. they want to be able to go to retail outlets and not have to worry about getting mugged. they want to be able to live in a nice neighborhood and not to have to worry about crime. >> trace: it would be a big relief for a lot of people. richard daley, thank you, sir. ♪ ♪ walk of the fox news @ night comes in's department has a cautionary tale about things overheard. in baltimore an amazon driver who is black was dropping off a package and claims he heard a racist remark come through the door bell speaker. he notified amazon who shut down the homeowner's amazon echo system which controls electronic devices including the lights for days. the homeowner who was also black

did not know why he had been locked out of that. finally he contacted amazon and got the cold shoulder for the racist remark except he did not make the remark. he was not even home for the delivery. what the driver heard was the ring doorbell saying excuse me, can i help you but the driver was wearing headphones and misunderstood. amazon acknowledges the mistake saying, "we work hard to provide customers with a great experience while also ensuring drivers who deliver amazon packages feel safe." common sense wonders how with zero evidence and zero due process amazon feels it has the power to punish customers? for saying something in the privacy of their home. should be close the windows and fearing doordash might catch wind of an offensive political debate? shall we soundproofed the walls to ensure u.p.s. does not hear tell of a religious conversation. common sense thinks maybe it is time to say, hey, alexa, tell me about the first amendment.

with donald trump now indicted by a new york city and the federal government and joe biden facing allegations of a bribery scheme from republican lawmakers, the front runner is to face off for president both set by legal issues. international correspondent kevin corke is live in dc to break it down for us. good evening. >> kevin: good evening, trace. you have heard the old expression, kicking them when they are down. in the case of former president donald trump, it is more like kicking some cash. that is despite being targeted by the doj, for allegedly mishandling classified documents, the former president is in fact raking in campaign cash from supporters. 2 million since last night's indictment. after the new york indictment and 15.4 million in the two weeks after he was indicted by the manhattan d.a. in late march. a lot of money you may be saying. yes, indeed. men to according to the latest quinnipiac survey, gop support for the former president shows

no sign of wavering. 50% -- 52% support for mr. trump. and the closest behind him would be ron desantis of the great state of florida with just 23%. this as jill biden's and favorability among voters sits at a whopping 54% in that same poll. some republicans really worry that i vote for biden 2024 is frankly a vote for kamala harris to become president. >> this is really about a kamala harris. this is really about the democrats making sure that kamala harris is the presidential nominee for the democratic side and i think we're going i think we're going to continue to see it go in that direction. >> kevin: perhaps one of the reasons for the low polling for mr. biden is the fact that he has been credibly accused of taking bribes while as vice president. by the way, according to the popular political, harris' and favorability sits, trace, 56%.

back. back to you. >> trace: big number. thank you. let's bring in the author of the brand-new book, the puppeteers, former house oversight committee chairman jason shea fits. it is always great to have you on. i want to put this. career progress on the book, by the way. i want to play this because this is some of the liberal media talking about why they don't want to carry donald trump. watch. >> we do not intend to carry these remarks live. as we have said before in these circumstances, there is a cost to us as a news organization to knowingly broadcast and threw things. >> i don't need to see any more of that. he is trying to turn it into a spectacle, into a campaign ad. >> trace: and taberner went on to say that he is dangerous. we are not going to tune into them because it is dangerous. it is all they talk about on cnn and msnbc. they don't want to show him because he is dangerous. >> he is ratings gold for these

people. only as rachel maddow janice beal's view, she says, we're not going to air it because he is going to say something untrue. how does she know that? it is not as if donald trump reads the teleprompter. how do you know when he is going to -- what he is going to say is untrue. they don't like him because he is successful, because he is a threat to their agenda and because he speaks off-the-cuff. that are the same reason that america actually does love donald trump and why he is blabbing people in the campaigns at this point. >> trace: it makes me laugh when they say, we're going to put him on for a town hall but we are not going to carry him alive because he is interested in what he says. here is the quinnipiac poll and this was taken just a couple days ago. it is very instructive because it has not budged. kevin talked about this earlier. you see donald trump at 53%. ron desantis and 23. the rest of it kind of falls in line. are you surprised that even with all the legal issues, the former

president still maintains this huge lead, jason. 's. >> reporter: i think it is sort of the american way. i think americans feel like when somebody is being picked on unfairly, they rally behind them. whether it is some young kid at a baseball game or at school, or whether it is a guy running for the president of the united states. i don't think that they feel that he has been treated fairly. and that i think republicans and conservatives in particular have deep distress of what the government is doing because of the unequal application of justice and that is the impetus to get behind donald trump. >> trace: i'm wondering if that might be the plan. is it the plan to make sure that he wins the gop primary? >> reporter: perhaps. but they do that at their own peril. i don't know. sometimes they don't know the left from the right. they don't know what they are doing. there is still a lot of runway before the election and the debate i think this debate coming up in august with fox

news, that is going to be one to watch that is for sure. >> trace: it is going to be a barnburner, that is for sure. michael goodwin writes this. millions losing faith in our system overturned by didn't provide. they can't vote our way out of this injustice going on. ultimately the notion that elections and exercising your voting rights will not correct a mistake is a disturbing and depressing ideas. unless the nation sees biden being held to the same standards by the same prosecutors in courts, the great divide will grow deeper and wider and more dangerous. final thoughts on that, michael goodwin. >> reporter: it is not just about biden. it is about clinton's. it is about all things democrats and the way they treat those they prosecute people in new york. and so it is bigger. it is a consistent pattern that we have seen play out over the last decade. donald trump personifies that right now, here today. but it is not the first time we have been to this rodeo, trace. people are getting tired of it. and the distrust is at radical

we could get, all the people into this transition every housing who want jobs. the next batch, we can get them into rehab. we can get them, all of the health services that they need. and get them going. putting them in the apartment is not safe for our public. putting them in hotels is just going to lead to their suicide. that is not the answer. >> trace: it will be a tough ordeal. >> very difficult. >> trace: kate monroe, best of luck to you. first opened today's crime roundup, a los angeles city councilman has been charged with perjury, conflict of interest and investment for allegedly misappropriating city money. he stepped down as president pro tem of the council and because the charges unwarranted. he joins a long list of current and former l.a. councilmembers caught up in scandals and corruption charges. homeowners in florida caught a cruel prank on camera. a shirtless person banged on the front door of their home in the middle of the night and then dashed off. the homeowner says that likely
