8:00 am
brooklyn bridge. it would pack a punch. >> do you put it out of your mind or look up? if it happens. >> dana: are you going to look for it. actually everything will be fine. harris faulkner will take you through the next hour with "the faulkner focus." i'll see you on "the five" at 5:00. thanks. >> harris: developing at this hour biden's border crisis reaching cities across america as large numbers of illegal immigrants pour in. the governor of texas says it is time sanctuary cities really do carry their weight. he added a new city to the list receiving illegals from the southern border. i'm harris faulkner and you are in "the faulkner focus." welcome to biden's america. the lone star state is being crushed about illegal immigrants and los angeles is the latest destination for bus loads of migrants.
8:01 am
they just got off two buses as they were headed to a church. governor abbott issued a statement saying he is sending them where they want to go. noting that l.a. is a self-declared sanctuary city. the democrat mayor karen bass went after that move call it cheap political games and a despicable stunt. she claims her city is prepared for it. okay. you asked for it, it is coming. abbott's move expands the program that sent thousands of people to vice president kamala's doorstep in washington as well as new york, philadelphia, chicago included. it is deep in crisis there, as you know in chicago. i mean, the crime is off the hooks. nearly 10,000 illegals are there now. some sleeping still in the police precincts. shuttered ymcas and abandoned schools. the homeland security committee holding a hearing to look into
8:02 am
mayokas for his dereliction of duty. former border patrol chief testified mayokas new the administration's only border policy was to let as many people in as they possibly could. and he carried it out. >> they did not want to know what we had to say. they made it very clear expedite proper sense and find new ways to let migrants into the u.s. the only agenda. >> which is on purpose. really circumventing u.s. law. >> 100% on purpose. scripted out. the secretary is not incompetent. >> i know he isn't. he is derelict. >> harris: not a good choice there. either you are incompetent or derelict. not doing your job. mike tobin reports live from chicago. >> half of the migrants who have come to chicago are still homeless. they stay in shelters, some of them in the rough parts of town and sleeping on the floor of
8:03 am
police districts. the fed has designated money and state and city council approved tens of millions of dollars to help migrants. one alterman tells me no one knows where the money has gone. still the welcoming of migrants to this sanctuary city is a big mess. >> texas with no place to stay. gonzalez is one of the people sleeping at a police district in chicago. he says he was told there were no jobs in los angeles and it was easier to go to chicago. police districts overflowing the city moved some 4500 to new shelters around the city like a school in the south shore. luis said the city dropped off migrants and neighbors got no warning. >> the only reason they spoke up on it because then we had the news media here. >> city council approved $50 million to help migrants. locals wanted it to combat
8:04 am
poverty and violence. >> it was to build rehab facilities. chicago is a narco town. >> others like this reverend are raising money for the new arrivals. >> they are here, they are helpless and they are human. so i just think it's not only the christian thing to do but the human thing to do. >> now there are reports of people piled up in these rooms and food is cold, inedible and rotten. a venezuelan man has been able to find work but can't get an apartment because he is undocumented. >> harris: that's a lot of money and not know where it went. chicago has hundreds of problems at this point. thank you. jason chaffetz is here, "fox & friends" contributor, former utah congressman and served as chairman of the house oversight committee. his new book, so appropriate for right now. "the puppeteers, the people who control the people who control
8:05 am
america" is on sale right now. controlling chicago and its crime is a sanctuary cities. many places are. whose problem is it really when you've got to share some of what's going on at the border and you send them to chicago and it endangers the illegal immigrants's lives to be in that city? >> the white house says the border is secure. secretary mayokas says the border is closed. what's the problem? the reality is, these are human beings and sad but human trafficking this administration is engaged with. they don't enforce the current law. i'm tired of other democrats, karen bass and others. she served with me in the house of representatives. i didn't see her introducing bills and getting behind reform efforts. to the contrary. the current law, the one that was comprehensive immigration reform is actually the laws on
8:06 am
the books today and they need to be enforced. they are not. so this is the problem. they come in mass by the millions, so many of them are unaccompanied minors by the tens of thousands. and it's natural they would want to go to sanctuary cities and states. that's what is playing out now. now they are complaining about it? that's rich of them. >> harris: like putting a sign out that says free stuff. they come and you get mad because they take it. >> exactly right. >> harris: republican senator josh hawley of missouri tore into secretary mayokas and his previous testimony to the homeland security committee. let's watch together. >> about the outrage of 250,000 migrant children unaccompanied crossing the border in the last two years and tens of thousands of them being sold into slavery.
8:07 am
what he told me was it's not my problem. we don't have anything to do this. let the record reflect this administration has let tens of thousands of children be sold into slavery and they are doing nothing about it. the kids are being exploited. and it should not happen in the united states of america. >> harris: we have created an epic humanitarian crisis among children in this country. >> i think he said that just right. we have created this. the biden/harris administration. where is kamala harris, by the way. still a big question. senator hawley is exactly right. it is human trafficking. so many of these people under age and adult age are being raped as they come across the border. the current law, the current law, if you come into this country illegally, not through a port of entry, which makes it illegal, guess what? you are supposed to be detained, fined and deported. that's the current law.
8:08 am
there is no ifs about it. that's what is supposed to happen. they do catch and release. that's why secretary mayokas, the president and the vice president won't take a meeting and won't listen to any one of the border patrol agents. you have had brandon judd, head of the border patrol council on this show. they will not take a meetings. don't listen to me. listen to the people on the border. the border patrol agents are telling us they are being raped, killed, they are risking their lives and now it is not turning out for them and why should i and why should everybody listening to the program why should we have to pay our taxpayer dollars to fund all of this? >> harris: people can express it with their vote. as bad as it has gotten in chicago, plus the crisis with illegal immigrants, you saw them just vote in as mayor somebody more far left than the last person. lori lightfoot. now they have brandon johnson. i don't know, maybe they like
8:09 am
this sort of thing and maybe stop complaining. it is on them at this point in that city and state. all right. let's move. what was so funny about it, anyway? president biden laughing off a reporter question about the potential recordings of his conversations with an executive at a ukrainian energy company burisma. that executive allegedly says the recordings were insurance to cover himself. gop lawmakers say that man bribed then vice president biden to change policy. here is the exchange with biden. >> are there tapes that you accepted bribes, president biden, is that true? >> harris: hilarious, right? the "new york post" miranda devine says he laughs in your face, america. another tweeted, absolute corruption. this question should be asked every time he is in public. senator ted cruz says it looks like the president has something
8:10 am
to hide. watch. >> he could call on the f.b.i., he could direct the f.b.i., hand over the 1023, hand over the 17 voice recordings because they will demonstrate my innocence. he is not doing that. instead, his henchmen at d.o.j. are stonewalling. >> harris: your reaction, jason? >> i thought it was interesting that president biden didn't deny it. he didn't say no. he could have just turned and said no and denied it. i look at the last answer when somebody in the press was able to penetrate and ask him a question about did you accept a bribe and get the $5 million? he didn't deny that. his answer was where is the money? and so if those are going to be the president's answers, they have a duty and obligation and again it's been said a million times but continue to beat like a drum, when the same things
8:11 am
happened to donald trump and they were false and made up and given by the hillary clinton campaign, they went guns blazing, everybody in the f.b.i. is working on this. here you have a credible source paid more than $1 hundred thousand. did so years before we ever heard the words about burisma and those types of things. there has got to be -- they have to get to the bottom of where these recordings are. >> harris: you have to press them to do their job. i mean, everybody in this whole thing is in it together? republicans are trying to do their best. democrats have to start pressing, too. truth matters. thank you. we go to the fox news alert now. grand jury has indicted marine veteran daniel penny in the subway choke death of jordan neely facing up to 15 years in jail if convicted. that case dividing new york city and now the country after that indictment was announced late yesterday. some say they believe he used excessive force on that day. others say he was protecting himself and his fellow
8:12 am
passengers who witnesses have said they felt threatened by this guy. this jordan neely. penny's attorney says his client's acts were fully within the law. >> the standard in new york state 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 imminent harm and the reality is that it wasn't just my client who expresses how terrified he was by jordan neely's actions on the subway train that afternoon. >> harris: many are questions what it means for the future. one headline says i hope the daniel penny indictment won't stop good samaritans from acting. you are locked in a car underground who will stand up
8:13 am
and protect everybody? bryan llenas with the latest. >> daniel penny's attorneys are pledging to aggressively defend their client after he was charged with manslaughter charges. they said we're confident when a jury a tasked with waying the evidence that his actions were fully justified. they say neely was making violent threats that scared everybody before -- penny says he was trying to do the right thing. now he faces up to 15 years in prison if found guilty of recklessly causing the death of neely. prosecutors argue penny held neely in a choke hold unreasonably long even after he stopped moving. he was mentally ill and had a
8:14 am
criminal rap sheet 42 arrests long including at least four charges of punching people. critics point out the jury pool will be new yorkers who take the subway really now amid general uneasiness. >> new yorkers are very fearful. the 30th stabbing on a new york subway last night. the 30th since 2020. people are extremely concerned because things are happening more and more. >> just on tuesday night, a man reportedly harassing passengers on a subway train punched a woman. her boyfriend stabbed him and he died from his wounds. the boyfriend has been arrested and charged with manslaughter, harris. his attorney is now comparing the case to daniel penny's telling fox news it is a clear case of self-defense. that's a case we will be following. >> harris: absolutely we will. brian, thank you so much. he is a billionaire who has spent a fortune to get liberal
8:15 am
officials elected all over this nation. george soros. >> it's important for every american to understand truly not just americans but anyone living in file society on earth, how influential soros has been throughout his career. >> harris: he has been called the most dangerous man in america. he has quietly transformed america's justice system to align with his ultra liberal vision for this country. special programming coming up. harris faulkner reports america's crime crisis. i dig into his massive impact and the deep damage it has caused. experts like businessman kevin o owe -- o'leary and others. three moms of murdered sons in cities with soros-backed district attorneys. stay close.

8:21 am
>> harris: now special programming. harris faulkner reports america's crime crisis. we're honing in on one man who has had an enormous effect on shaping our nation for decades now, george soros. soros is a hungarian born billionaire now 92 years old. he spends vast sums of cash to push his ultra liberal agenda. critics say he has done immeasurable damage to our great nation. one calls him the most dangerous man in america. others highlighting his vapidities on america's criminal justice system. he and his groups have financed
8:22 am
the elections of prosecutors all over america and they embrace policies which have ushered in rampant crime. you have seen it. we cover it right here on fox news. those policies prioritize violent criminals over the victims and their families. just ahead you see the three moms there. they face the heartbreaking reality of soros district attorneys. their sons all murdered in a city with one at the helm. kevin o'leary paul mauro and matt columbo. let's beginning with grady trimble on who george soros is and now passing on not just his money but his legacy of liberalism. >> bill onair claims he is
8:23 am
trying to help the justice system for the better. recognizable prosecutor ins country. alvin bragg, kim foxx, george gascon. their campaigns received money from george soros, a 2022 report by the pro-police nonprofit law enforcement legal defense fund found he spent more than $40 million to elect prosecutors who represent one in five americans. some of them have since been forced out or have stepped down as big city crime rates soar. voters showed former district attorney boo dean the door in san francisco. st. lucas attorney kim gardner resigned. >> instead of protecting victims she is creating more by refusing to do her job.
8:24 am
>> a spokesperson to soros is coming to his defense saying he makes legal, fully disclosed money so they can get their message out. anti-democratic forces at the state level in many cases that are unlawfully removing reformers despite there having been elected by the people. his son, alex, is also getting into the family business. he helps run his father's liberal-focused charitable organization. on social media he touted president biden's re-election bid. since 2021 he has visited the white house at least 14 times according to logs reviewed by fox news digital. since 2018 his son has poured millions of dollars to democratic pacs and campaigns. >> it is a who as who of liberal politicians, pundits.
8:25 am
>> they provided a litany of links to media reports and studies to try to make the case that crime is just as bad or worse in red states as it is in big cities where his preferred prosecutors serve. >> harris: great reporting by grady trimble. you heard him mentioning alex soros and his many white house visits. this week his father announced he and his son will now, you know, do their bidding. he will handle all of the control and all of that charitable money, his son will. a political empire. 37 years old and he is very active in social media so that's really interesting, too. alex has promised to be even more political than his father. which has some critics wondering if that's even possible. the younger soros social media is filled with photographs showing him with high profile
8:26 am
libers like nancy pelosi. the president and vice president. oh, he hob knobs, all right. i spoke with shark tank co-host kevin o'leary about the power and influence of george soros and now his son pushing their progressive agenda across america and what it will look like. >> money and message are very important. as you go back a decade ago, soros, other wall street entities, billionaires were a major impact as donorship for red and blue, liberal and conservative. didn't matter. they really mattered. each election cycle they become less and less of a factor. what is occurring now is if you are successful on social media, any politician, any side of the aisle, you are able to draw 20, 30, $4,050 at a time from millions of people. the power of soros while 40
8:27 am
million may sound like a lot of money but nothing to have for a race. this cycle, this will be the hardest for soros to have an impact than ever before. unless next time and even less after that. that goes for anybody. any billionaire donor anywhere, yes, they matter, but not so much. >> harris: that's critical timing of that because he just handed the reins over to his 37-year-old son who says he will be much more political than his father. of course, we know he will have the energy and he will have $25 billion that he will have inherited. talk to me, if you will, about just kind of the power of money separate from just what that can do, and someone's vision. george soros has a vision for the country. and he says that it will make the country better. do you believe that? >> unfortunately for soros and
8:28 am
now for his son is that you can now point at a metric. you can measure that policy and the place that most people point to is san francisco. san francisco, no other way to describe it, has become america's war zone. hotels are pulling out. drugstores closing down. very unsafe to walk there after 6:00. nobody wants to do a convention there. all kind of capital is leaving that city. unfortunately that is being pegged on soros's policies. his brand is tainted by san francisco and now other cities like los angeles where i am right now. you don't walk around here at night wearing any jewelry. beverly hills, everybody knows that. defunding the police may not be the best strategy for new focus on crime and safety. and all kinds of issues around security that will become major in this election. this will be a top three policy mandate. i think that's why it will be
8:29 am
very tough for soros to keep raising that flag no matter how much money he pumps into it. >> harris: what's fascinating, too, about what you are saying. that one man could help -- he didn't do it by himself. his money did. one man could get involved and now america, particularly on those beautiful many of them democrat-led cities are crumbling in areas. san francisco, chicago, crime off the hook in terms of just the things that we can measure. but there is a randomness to our society now, kevin. what a penalty to pay for one man's vision. >> these pendulum's swing. >> harris: it is not like he is an office holder. we didn't elect him. >> if you have money you can drive message. it is great that you can do that and obviously you want to find people willing to be on your side of the fence on your policies and your mandates. but soros's $40 million, i said it earlier, it is really nothing
8:30 am
in the context of how many billions will be spent. so if alex, his son, wants to ramp it up that's great. but i think the brand has been tainted by what has happened in the cities you just listed. these are bad places now and people are blaming these policies of defunding the police, even talk to new york. it's the same story there. now this has become, because it is an election issue, i'm sorry, people have to deal with it and actually it will become a debate. that's a good thing in america. we need to debate this stuff. >> harris: he is in his 90s and gave it to a 37-year-old. he might be looking for new stuff. we appreciate you taking the time, kevin, great to see you, thank you. you bet he is. like he was just saying you raise money on social media now. we are looking now at this list of liberal d.a.s and prosecutors. there are 20 of them that fox news has confirmed to whom george soros made direct money
8:31 am
contributions or indirect contributions through groups supporting their campaigns. when someone tells you soros never touched them, we have confirmed at least 20 of them. this map compiled by a nonprofit group shows some 70 progressive d.a.s spread across the country linked to soros in one way or another. paul mauro, retired nypd inspector, founder of ops desk.org and matt columbo. author. matt, i will start with you and your reaction if you could to what we are experiencing in this country right now. >> with alex taking over the worse is yet to come. as you said earlier he is more political version of his father, which i thought was impossible. now he has $25 billion to go and pursue those goals. i will say he does -- i don't think he wants to be the pariah
8:32 am
his father is. there was an interview and tried to moderate himself and more pro free speech but he was -- i don't buy it. >> harris: from the perspective of someone who has had to fight crime from the top levels of new york city, what does it mean to have a soft on crime d.a. ushered by money from soros come into town? >> we see the results on the street every day, right? think about the effect that has on police morale and police initiative, right? when pretty much anything you do during your workday, no matter how good hearted that work is. i don't care who it is. 99.9% of police go to work because they want to do the right thing and be the good guy. what does it feel like when no matter what you do, it gets undone almost instantly. where you have to watch the person you just arrested walk
8:33 am
out of the precinct. that's why take it to the basic level. why if you go into a drugstore, the toothpaste is behind lock and key. these are the results. >> harris: everything. you walk in an it's plexiglas down the aisle in stores in new york city. pamela price, a soros-backed district attorney in oakland, california is getting a lot of attention these days from a lot of loud people because she has done all the wrong things. women in her city giving officials an earful at a community meeting a couple of weeks ago saying they are simply not safe anymore. >> i just want to turn to the audience and ask them who here has been assaulted, or -- raise your hand. >> wow. >> that's sad. oakland is out of control with
8:34 am
the crime. i am absolutely fed up. we are all fed up because of you and your policy. >> harris: did you see how many hands went up when she asked how many people in the audience have been assaulted, women? a recent opinion piece argues that price, the district attorney there, continues to go easy on the killers. one of the cases is highlighted is her announcement that she was trying to seek non-prison punishments for gang members who had killed a toddler in a shoot-out between rival groups. that toddler, jasper wu was killed riding in his family's car one month before his second birthday. the suspect were in court last week. it was two years ago almost. price dropped special
8:35 am
circumstances into their case automatically making them eligible for parole if convicted. you are watching this and i watch your body language. you aren't shocked by this, matt. >> no, but as nice as it was to see the people rising up if oakland liberals don't have the best track record in electing good replacements. we just saw lori lightfoot in chicago and thinking we'll get this tough on crime guy in there and clean up the city and they elect the one mayor worse than her. brandon johnson. nice to see but hopefully they can pick better people next time. >> harris: that little one whose life was taken, jasper wu, i have to tell you, paul, it is more than heartbreaking. it is being replicated across this country in one way or another. >> you go to the heart of it. i have to say to myself by what metric does soros think that any of this stuff is succeeding? where is the sort of empirical
8:36 am
data that we can point to saying it has good effect. these are trends and cases that are illustrative of the basic results of these sorts of policies. everybody heard about the thing going on with daniel penny and jordan neely here in town. part of the entire ethic of the defund movement is that alternatives to incarceration. jordan neely had been referred to alternatives numerous times. he walked out and he was a habitual drug user, something else the soros people are down on. less incarceration, less enforcement on drugs. as a result you get the jordan neelys of the world who are themselves victims of this wrong-headed approach to criminal justice. >> harris: that's interesting. i want to fill everybody in on the latest in that. that marine veteran who -- witnesses have said they themselves were potential victims because jordan neely was saying the words he wanted to
8:37 am
kill. he was willing to go to prison. they felt threatened. underground on a subway locked in a subway car and the former u.s. marine stands up, daniel penny and that's the case you are talking about and neely ends up dead in a choke restraint. well, penny indicted just this week. we'll see where that case goes. it is interesting, that's the one that bubbles up, too, right? okay. the newly-formed jews against soros group says on its website now we're jews who are sick and tired of the left accusing anyone who criticizes george soros of being anti-semitic. there is nothing anti-semitic about identifying the many ways george soros and his network of organizations fund the radical left. leftism isn't judaism and being anti-leftist is not the same as being anti-semitic. period, a senior editor for
8:38 am
"newsweek." the group's co-founder and joined our friend jason rantz's radio show. i will play it. >> it is not anti-semitic this ridiculous double standard the left has. soros is billions of dollars. his son visited the biden white house 17 times. his influence is everywhere. when you are playing at that level and you are spreading your wealth and money that far and wide you can be legitimately criticized no matter what your ethnic, racial whatever is. that's the whole point. >> harris: we thought it was important to include that because every time you go after soros, groups come and say oh no, no, no, you aren't getting that right because of his faith and because of his culture. >> a jewish mega donor, we would never say liberals are anti-semitic. they try to silence us.
8:39 am
i believe normalize violence against us by making false accusations of anti-semitism. to be honest, they set up a standard where you can never prove you aren't. you might as well ignore it or ridicule it. >> harris: you said a mouthful there. thank you, gentlemen. great to have you both on the program. the victims and their families know firsthand liberal policies mean deadly consequences. many are speaking out against the soros-backed prosecutors. >> how many mothers would rather get a call from their child from ryker's island than from the coroner? >> we don't have the luxury of grieving our children because we are fighting for justice. >> criminals are being released instead of having my son's case. >> harris: you hear it over and over and over now. the criminals are more important than the victims. well, take a look at this. three moms, three cities, three tragic murders. sons taken too soon and these women are taking a stand.
8:42 am
(vo) crabfest is back at red lobster. when you can choose your crab, and one of three new flavors like roasted garlic butter... ...this is not your grandpa's crabfest... ...unless grandpa's got flavor. dayumm! crabfest is here for a limited time. welcome to fun dining. veteran homeowners. prices are going up fast. the grocery store and the gas station alone are taking a big chunk out of our paychecks. fortunately, you've earned the valuable va home loan benefit. the newday100 va loan lets you borrow up to 100% of your home's value, not just 80%. and with home values near record highs,
8:45 am
>> harris: it's finally starting to happen because it's necessary now. they're desperate. no other options, who will speak for them? victims' families in some of these democrat-led cities are taking on the soros-backed district attorneys and prosecutors themselves. critics are calling out soft on crime policies and pointing to rampant violence as proof that their so-called reforms are not working. in fact, they're killing people. under district attorney alvin bragg in manhattan felony cases have resulted in conviction that have fallen 17% since he took office. fewer convictions, fewer penalties, more crime. felonies downgraded to mi misdemeanors have gone up. progressive pushback in l.a. to
8:46 am
gascon's policies. likeneding cash bails. he also says he will not enhance criminal punishments for crimes involving alleged gangs. he plans to severely downsize or get rid of the d.a.'s hard core gang unit. he just recently survived a recall effort. they like this sort of thing out there? no. in chicago, critics point to crime statistics under prosecutor kim foxx. according to the heritage foundation, an average of 165 additional homicides per year have occurred in the six years that kim foxx has been the city's top prosecutor. one of those homicides is 4-year-old m.j. his mom, happy, is here with us today. m.j. was killed when gunfire erupted while he was getting his hair braided in september of 2021. so far no arrests in that case. beautiful child.
8:47 am
im elide yeah's son was killed in 2020. he had two young kids of his own. his mother accused gascon of helping the criminals and participated in attempts to recall him from office. madeleine lost her son, hassan, to a brutal beating in harlem in 2018. he served in the army in afghanistan and left behind a widow and three young children. two of his attackers are behind bars but one was granted bail. madeleine tore into d.a. bragg in new york city with this emotional plea to congress in april. >> as far as the manhattan district attorney's office, if he is receiving one penny of federal dollars, you need to pull that funding until he starts doing his damn job and prosecuting crime. there are hundreds and thousands of us. we don't give a damn about your
8:48 am
politics. as long as whoever is in there stands for law and order. and return civility and sanity to our city >> harris: let's start with madeleine. to say you started a wave of people standing up would be to put it mildly. tell me what you were thinking that day and what pushed you to that point. >> that particular day during that hearing the victims were being insulted. we were called names that we were being used for props, that it was a political tactic by, you know, jim jordan to have something to do with donald trump. so i got very angry. i got very angry at their point
8:49 am
and finding that when i had the opportunity to express myself is more effective. >> harris: you are right. that's so interesting. so people were trying to say that you were being used by the right and you were trying to say no, it is these leftist policies killing us. i want to say to all of you, it isn't even enough to say that i'm sorry and that i'm praying for you, and i am. both those things. i'm just looking for ways that we can help you. and so imelda, i come to you next. what do you need at this point? >> we need more panels, we need more media, we need media to see the murders that happen on a daily basis that don't ever make the media. and we need a voice to get
8:50 am
george gascon out of office next year. i need personally los angeles county to vote right and for a prosecutor that will prosecute murders and crimes. >> harris: why didn't he get recalled? do people like what's happening? >> people do not like what's happening but again we don't have a voice as much as we need to. we need more panels, we especially with george soros's son alex will try to support george gascon as much as possible. for me los angeles does not have a district attorney. he is an undercover public defender. >> harris: wow, that is -- those are powerful words for many of these people put in those positions with george soros's money one way or the other.

happy, you have such a beautiful name. and i can't imagine there not being a day when you say wow, but i'm not happy today. you lost your 4-year-old little baby. such a beautiful child. now you are speaking out. what is it that you want to say? >> you know, there is a lot that needs to be said. i had a 4-year-old son who was absolutely beautiful. brilliant, educated and he was coming to the city to visit his father. and here we are almost two years to the day that my son was murdered and no one is in custody for it. i just wish there were more resources for families that are going through the exact same thing. at this point, you know, with the city of chicago i have been working diligently since my son's murder to help find out who killed him and why this happened to him. unfortunately for me and my son, we have fallen short.
8:52 am
>> harris: how frustrating it is to look at your new mayor, bran johnson, who is farther left on these issues lori lightfoot and notorous for how many -- >> it is frustrated that the people who murdered my son have not been found. i feel like in chicago they -- sit the tale of two cities. the chicago you see on the news here today and the chicago you see on the tv shows. it is this underbelly world in the community that is at war. i feel like that community has to want better. i don't think that any person is going to come in, mayor or governor, are not going to come in and fix the community. the community has to want to fix itself and accept the help from the person in power. >> harris: everybody is nodding to that. myself included. you have to choose a better life and the biggest voice you will ever have is when you go vote.
8:53 am
madeleine, i want to come back to you. it brought tears to my eyes when we aired that vehicle. people agreed with you and not necessarily speaking up. is it hard to be a voice? do you feel politically targeted? this should be bipartisan. this should be everybody fighting for the victims to live in freedom, not the criminals. >> [inaudible] conservative voices, black conservative voices, people are trying to silence black conservative voices. i will say directly to my black and brown communities, it is time to leave the plantation of the democratic party. the simple fact that these policies that are being put in place are like a one way train crashing right into our
8:54 am
communities and we are effect by them. the people that we continue to vote for over and over genemaras ration after generation. it's time to leave. time to walk away, look into other people that are more in line with your values and people who stand for law and order. if not, you know, they will sit back and allow our communities to self-decimate. the young lady was right earlier when she said it begins and ends with ourselves. it begins and ends within the four walls of the home, all right? this is where this attitude and this behavior starts and that's the way it needs to be addressed within the four walls of the home. >> harris: you have to stand up. i see you are wearing your son's military dog tags. >> yes. >> harris: he fought for this country and every victim counts and you remind us by wearing those who we are losing in this
8:55 am
fight for the soul of america, as i often say. we only have a few seconds left. imelda, we'll end with you. >> i just would like to say that murder and crime have no color, as you can see here. we're very colorful on this panel. and so i ask that you are not fear mongered into voting political because the district attorney's position is to prosecute, not be political. >> harris: thank you all. and thank you for watching america's crime crisis.
