hi, i'm jason and i've lost 202 pounds on golo. so when i first started golo, i was expecting to lose around 40 pounds and then i just kept losing weight, and moving and moving and moving in a better direction. with golo and release, you're gonna lose the weight. >> sandra: all new at 2:00, crime coast to coast putting everyone at risk and some of the most vulnerable are in criminal's cross hairs. >> a general sense of lawlessness. >> definitely shocking for the neighborhood. obviously this is like strollerville, there is a million kids with their moms. >> how far are people willing to go, there are kids in the strollers.

>> a san francisco neighborhood known as strollerville for how many families live there has been hit by a gang of teenagers police say are targeting women with young children. allegedly robbing more than ten people even hitting one with a baseball bat. >> strollerville, can you believe it? on the other side of the country, new york city subways have gotten so bad, even manhattan's far left d.a. says it is not safe. so, why is the mayor still blaming the media? we could as "america reports" heads into hour two. mike, great to have you here today. >> mike: great to be here with you. who better to do it than lawrence jones coming up in just a moment, but kick it off first with this fox news alert on how your sensitive information may be up for grabs. >> sandra: and troubling new reports exposing how at risk your personal data may be. both private companies and the federal government to blame. a new report from the director of national intelligence finding

the government is buying up swaths of information online, putting privacy at risk for millions ever americans. >> and it's not just the feds peering in. several tax prep companies are accused of funneling financial data, filing status, refund amounts, even names of dependents were allegedly exposed. >> sandra: all right, you've got our attention. hillary vaughn is live on capitol hill as they demand an investigation into the tax firms, but first griff jenkins is live in washington on the stunning new report. griff, any mention of that with fbi director christopher wray when he was in the hot seat yesterday? >> absolutely, hey, sandra, good afternoon. it did come up and every american should care about the report, it shows the government can purchase troves of data on

us. >> do you know if the contracts with data brokers like the ones i described provide location data? >> my testimony about purchasing commercial database information that includes location data derived from internet advertising remains the same, which is that we currently do not do that. >> but the information that you have that has already been purchased, does it contain location -- >> again, i'm not trying to be obtuse or difficult here. i just know from experience that the more you drill into this whole issue of commercial data, geolocation data, etc., that it gets very involved, in some cases involves pilot projects that are in the past, and some cases involves -- >> the report details how the u.s. intel community approaches commercially available information, cai, can be bought

without warrants, and it can be used to cause substantial harm, embarrassment, and inconvenience to u.s. persons. the concern has bipartisan support. jim jordan calling for action to protect americans. >> need legislation that says you can't do this, you can't go buy it up, you can't do that, using your money to buy information about you that they can then maybe come after you for. that just -- that does not square up with the constitution. >> and ron widen says the government is failing to safeguard american's satan. we'll see if more hearings come out of this. we reached out for comment, no answer yet. >> mike: a new report reveals millions of americans had highly sensitive financial data given to meta by tax prep companies. lawmakers are calling for a federal investigation.

hillary vaughn is live on capitol hill with more. hillary, how is meta responding? >> well, mike, they say they did create the ad tool that was used to scoop up this data, but that's not how their tool was supposed to be used. saying this in a statement, we have been clear in our policies that advertisers should not send sensitive information about people through our business tools. doing so is against our policies, our system is designed to filter out potentially sensitive data that is -- that it is able to detect. but whether it was meant to happen or not, a group of senate democrats say it did, and it went on for years affecting tens of millions of taxpayers. the senators say popular filing services like h and r block, tax act and tax slayer created targeted ads by meta and other companies. it gave meta info about you maybe your close friends may not

know. included your income, filing status and how much you owe in taxes. they suspended the ad tool to evaluate and fix any possible privacy concerns but tax slayer is calling out the senate report saying it's wrong, we are disappointed the report contains numerous false or misleading statements. stated in the written and oral responses to congress to the best of our knowledge, neither the meta or google pixel translated information from tax returns. they claim any data transferred was anonymous, lawmakers say the ftc and experts tell them this information was very easily identifiable and could be used to create a dossier of sorts on a person to then use that to create targeted ads. mike. >> mike: serious story. hillary, thanks a lot. >> it feels like every six

months or so we have a major hack and so much is coming from either china or russia. the communist party of china has a goal of trying to not only hurt our economy but in many ways hack into all of our systems. >> sandra: efforts by the u.s. to try and mend the relationship with china may be back at square one after national security officials say chinese hackers breached the email accounts, okay, of top state and commerce department officials. the attack happened back in may and discovered right before secretary of state antony blinken's trip to beijing last month. brian kilmeade is here, what should we think of this? >> the timeline, in november china and u.s. said let's start talking about. in february, the spy balloon, shoot it down, everything is off, and then in may, microsoft reports that there has been

hacks directly to a big critic of china, to her account, get all her personal information, same thing with antony blinken. for month it was a big playground and a follow-up meeting after this. in june we find out about it. they still want to meet. where is your threshold of pain, america? how much longer are we going to understand this is a flat out -- this is an economic enemy, and this is a military enemy. both are moving firmly against us, strategizing against us, and all we do is send our treasury secretary there to nod in agreement, and now we send our secretary of state there, and then whatever john kerry claims to be, and soon a meeting of the president. at what points do we say enough? >> sandra: good question, and the request he is growing now in wake of the new "barbie" movie and the bowing of hollywood to china's demands. put up this map that has become a point of controversy as this movie that is based on obviously

the iconic doll is now entangled in what appears to be a real life political snaffu as the hill puts it. gop lawmakers, brian, are criticizing this over a scene that features this map depicketing china's claimed territory in the south china sea. is this another example of how china is controlling hollywood? >> absolutely, and for some reason i know you want box office, i know you want to make millions of dollars and people only see the market. they are going to the china market. a billion people that could buy stuff that you make or that you produce, and they are afraid of upsetting that market. you'll never see a bad guy that's chinese, never see that's asian, and now you'll never see a situation where america looks good and china looks bad and that's when i fear with koik. what's the big deal, open competition. a news feed on tiktok and the

water gets world and see an ex ca ration of all negative stories, and soon negative american stories. we do a great job telling our grade schoolers what a bad place america is, and now china will tell all the people who have tiktok, almost everybody, what a bad place america is through the news and that's why i think it's dangerous -- a lot of reasons, but that's one of the reasons why i think it's dangerous. >> sandra: a growing list of movies have apparently caved to china in one way or another. we have it up on the screen for you here. just to give you another example of hollywood caving to china on these issues. lawmakers apparently are speaking out. marsha black burn, the depiction of a map endorsing beijing's claim to the south china sea must be taken seriously. more lawmaker reaction. >> these companies are the same companies that lecture us about esg, how racist america is, and yet they are unwilling to stand up for basic human rights and values when it comes to china

because they are greedy, they want access to the chinese market. >> as someone who comes from the arts world it happens all the time. oversights in movies and productions, i would not read much into it. >> sandra: there is some of the reaction. apparently a statement was issued to "variety" through -- from warner brothers film group, called the map a child like crayon drawing that appears in barbie lands, it was not intended to make a statement according to the film studio. >> if it was a one-off, look out in the future, but it's happening nonstop and if you think it's a minor thing, for them to care this much about a movie, that's how comprehensive the plan is to overtake us culturally, militarily, economically, and i think more and more you are going to see hollywood, the way they are standing up for movies with values, more and more values, and china has nothing to do with

this. >> sandra: and sports, and enes kanter freedom. >> jesse will have an exclusive look at 8:00, some say it's an hour later. and i'm going to get you and john roberts on this. the second ever co-host quiz. how much do anchors know about each other, featuring bill hemmer and dana this week. it's great, and michael loft to have some fun, griff jenkins, and we are 48 hours away. >> sandra: people are probably shocked to know how much we know about each other. >> we make the questions tough, a little bit different, but make it intriguing. but most of the people will find out that fox people in front of the camera and behind the camera get along. >> sandra: who gets the information? how did you get the questions?

>> we come up with the questions, we ask the question of the other anchor. i don't want you and john roberts to do the co-host quiz. >> sandra: i need to get the scoop how you build this quiz. >> you have to win, you have to win at the co-host quiz, a fun thing? "one nation" at 8:00. >> sandra: we'll be watching. brian, good to see you. >> mike: sounds like fun.

oh. >> the whistleblower told us that there was a 1023 which is an fbi form recording tips and

investigative leads that suggest hunter biden and joe biden had conversations with burisma top officials, a gas company in ukraine. if that was true, everything hunter biden and joe biden said is a lie. >> mike: that is south carolina senator lindsey graham joining us last hour to discuss the fbi form alleging bribery accusations against the bidens. two irs whistleblowers who brought the document to the attention of lawmakers will testify before the house oversight panel next wednesday, but remains to be seen if doj and fbi officials who handle the hunter biden investigation will talk at all. joining us me now is house ways and means committee chairman jason smith. welcome. >> great to be with you, sir. >> mike: so attorney general merrick garland said publicly a few weeks ago he would be open to having the united states attorney for delaware speak publicly about this matter. let's play him.

>> he was given complete authority to make all decisions on his own. i would support mr. weiss explaining or testifying on these matters when he deems it appropriate. >> mike: you expect to hear back from the attorney general, should that be a yes? >> you know, i would sure hope so, that the prosecutor weiss would respond to the request that myself, comer, and jordan sent him a letter requesting that he come voluntarily and talk to members of congress. we got a lot of questions for him. because it's not adding up with what the whistleblowers have said, what the attorney general of the united states has said, and also what mr. weiss has said. there is only a couple reasons why mr. weiss would not come or the other 12 people that we have requested to come and that would be they are either hiding something, or someone above them is not allowing them to come. so i hope they will come voluntarily because we have a lot of questions that need to be

answered for the american people. >> mike: you cite whistleblower testimony saying doj refused to follow information about hunter biden, tipped off secret service and more and allowed the clock to run out with regard to certain charges. would you explain. >> we had two whistleblowers come before the ways and means committee. private confidential information that we can actually hear it and then we could vote to publicly release it. the information that we got over 15 hours of depositions from these two whistleblowers highlighted some very alarming things. it showed ways how the justice department delayed prosecution of hunter biden, they delayed it in such a way that the statute of limitations expired for the tax crimes of 2014 and 2015, which the whistleblowers stated were some of the biggest crimes, including $400,000 that hunter biden received in 2014 from

burisma that was not reported. and in fact, that was the time when his father was vice president of the united states. there's a lot of alarming things. they also divulged information to hunter biden's lawyers and we also see the issues that they denied prosecution in washington d.c. and california according to the whistleblowers. we need to get down to the facts. >> mike: you, chairman comer from house oversight and chairman jordan are seeking testimony from a dozen employees of fbi, doj, irs, focusing on the irs folks. do you believe those employees want to talk and do you believe their agencies will allow them? >> i sure hope they'll voluntarily come. like i said earlier, if they do not voluntarily come, only two reasons. one, they are hiding something. two, someone above them would not allow them to talk. these 13 individuals are extremely important.

based on the testimony of the two irs whistleblowers that have came forward, we need to talk to these 13 individuals because they were all included in the october 7, 2022, meeting where apparently mr. weiss said that he couldn't bring charges or couldn't -- couldn't have special counsel, and we need to see if it's true. the attorney general of the united states said mr. weiss has complete authority and discretion to bring charges where he wants. let's get down to the facts and that's what we are doing. >> mike: chairman jason smith of the house ways and means committee. we will follow it. thank you for your time, sir. >> thank you, sir. >> sandra: more than 100 million americans under heat warnings and advisories as high temperatures are scorching parts of the south and the west. sizzling hot temperatures could set a new record in las vegas over the next few days. that's where we finds our

weather correspondent max gordon. how is it feeling there in sin city? >> sandra, it is sizzling here in sin city. we are on the way to 100 degrees, nearly there, a high of 109. they say it's a dry heat but gosh, feels like i'm standing in the middle of an oven. today is nothing compared to what we will see on sunday. that's when we could challenge the city's all-time high of 117. we could see 118° on sunday. clark county, the county where las vegas is located has opened cooling shelters for people to go. they are telling people to stay inside this weekend if at all possible. but still plenty of people on the las vegas trip. >> we are struggling, we are not used to this type of weather in ireland. >> sweating loads. >> someone needs to turn it off. >> it's too hot. >> get out in it early and stay out in it, and kind of accumulate to it, and you don't realize it's getting hot.

>> i don't know if i agree with that advice. good idea to probably stay inside in the a.c. on a day like today, and especially on sunday. officials telling people to hydrate, wear light clothing and you might be here in sin city to party, but try to drink a little less alcohol, it can dehydrate you. sandra. >> sandra: absolutely, and having bb in las vegas recently, they have misters around the pools. but if you are staying at a hotel and you lay by the pool, the heat and the sun, you don't last five minutes. looks like you could cook an egg on the sidewalk behind you. max, thank you. >> thank you. >> mike: sandra, u.s. officials confirm ukraine has officially received those controversial cluster bombs, but not everyone in the president's party is happy about it. alarming way the administration is justifying the move. >> sandra: and targeting the most vulnerable, mothers and

nannys after attacks on a neighborhood, known as strollerville. lawrence jones joins us. >> i always tell my wife always to never look at her phone while she's walking around. >> you are looking behind you, you know, you are conscious of cars coming up beside you. one legendary icon deserves another. get in. ♪ the future of chevy electric suv's has arrived. see barbie only in theaters july 21st. and experience the all-new chevy blazer ev ss. ♪ my name is joshua florence, and one thing i learned being a firefighter is plan ahead. you don't know what you're getting into, but at the end of the day, you know you have a team behind you that can help you.

linked to a gang of teenagers. lawrence jones is here, host of cross country. because you are travelling all over the country, laurence, all the time, and you are talking to people, not just victims of crime but people who carry out the crimes themselves. what is pg ha, they no longer feel safe walking down who is known as strollerville. >> i've been so much reporting in san francisco, and the stores are closed, mom and pop stores are leaving. i think this was predictable in california, they passed a law that said you can steal as long as it's less than 1,000 bucks. if you steal you'll kill, and if you kill you are going to jail and i'm not going to get you out. they set a standard of lawlessness in california. it was only predictable it was going to spread to the moms in the streets. it's going to take a lot to change this in san francisco because they have a shortage of

crops, the criminal justice system is almost nonexistence, a preferential treatment for the criminal and not the victim. yesterday i spent some time in denver with juveniles who committed murder, robberies, a 13-year-old boy, his dad was a leader of a gang and is now in prison, and said i wish i just had a dad. the families are broken, criminal justice system is broken, and will only get worse. we need strong families, we need discipline and we need consequences for people's actions. >> 13 years old, convicted criminal behind bars. >> he's out now, he's in a program now and i asked him, i said what do you need, what can we do to help out? my first job was working in a juvenile court. it was while -- it's been a while since i sent time with juveniles that have committed crimes and he was so hard in the interview, but then he said i

just wish i had a dad. i feel like i need a dad. all my friends -- >> sandra: and his dad is the leader of the local gang. >> yeah. >> sandra: remarkable, lawrence. we'll be watching for that. here in new york, a massive crime spike, people don't feel safe, you are watching your back everywhere you go. new york residents, how concerned are you of a victim of crime, 61%. not concerned, 38%. yet eric adams is still blaming the media for all the problems the city has. >> the other day picking up the news, the morning papers, they sit down and they say some of the most horrific events that may happen throughout the previous day. it plays on your psyche. >> sandra: i don't know where to begin, you pick up the morning news, the paper, they are making it up, is that the suggestion? >> the people assaulted in

subways, and officials having urine thrown at them. >> sandra: times scare, people had no idea he was carrying this. >> walk the streets of new york city and go into the stores and watch the merchandise locked up. pretty soon a story done why the commissioner, a cops cop, decided to randomly resign. we have heard rumblings she had the support of the rank and file in the department but some tension between her and the mayor. she wanted to be more aggressive on the street, she wanted a real anti-crime unit and suddenly she's gone? i mean -- i've been very critical of the mayor because i find him to be somewhat of a political chameleon. he's tough, depending on what crowd he's in at the time. this city is not safe. it's going to get worse. >> sandra: no, now an admission, you talk about soft on crime

policies leading to this out west, here at home, manhattan d.a. alvin bragg admitting he's fearful of the crime on the subways. listen. >> i know the statistics that transit crime is down but one of my family members gets on the train i get a knot in my stomach. >> sandra: well, let's do something about that. let's get criminals off the streets. >> and this is also a man that has a security detail. i mean -- and if you are fearful and you have a security detail, what do you think the average day new yorker is feeling? >> sandra: moms with strollers heading on the subway. >> it's truly insane for him to go on the record when his policies have emboldened the criminals. we can keep saying the same thing on fox every single day, keep bringing victims and their families on the program to talk about their situations. but if there's anything that the media is doing, it's not covering -- cnn is not covering, cbs, they are not covering the crime facing day-to-day and

inviting the victims. so i think the media have provided coverage for the issue. number two issue, it's the economy and then crime. it's not just major cities. it's the suburbs and all people. they try to racialize the issue, but everyone is feeling the crime. a criminal does not care about your color. all they care about is the merchandise and the crime they want to carry out. that's it. >> sandra: looking forward to your show, sounds like incredible interviews with the kids. 13 years old, i just wish i had my dad and imagine how their lives could have possibly turned out differently. family is a big part as well. >> it is, most important issue is strong families and you can see it in the studies. when people have mom and dad in the household to function and mom and dad are able to care for

the kids, they are different. and this -- there is a society now to saying let's not have that conversation. >> sandra: interesting stuff. we'll be watching for that. mike. >> mike: sandra, u.s. official confirms ukraine has received the cluster new -- munitions from last week. hello, jen. >> the bottom line officials tell me is that the russians and the ukrainians have already been using cluster munitions which is a weapon that delivers multiple bomblets that explode above ground and delivered by artillery or rockets. banned by more than 100 countries because the unexploded ordnance that maim and kill

after the war end. u.s. manufacturers of 155 millimeter shells can't keep up with the demand from the ukrainians. >> but again, the united states made a conscious decision to reduce the industrial base to be efficient at peace time production rates. >> one thing we have seen with ukraine is you can really move through a lot of munitions in a short period of time and we don't want to be caught flatfooted here. we need to make sure our production lines are up and running. >> the u.s. has shipped more than 1.5 million howitzer shell rounds to ukraine. the main factory, 1 of 2 in the united states that produces 155 millimeter shells is in scranton, pennsylvania, doubled the amount of ammo it's producing, 20,000 shells.

ukrainians are firing 150,000 rounds a month. >> when the conflict began, the united states was producing maybe 4,000 shells per month. we are up to probably 20,000. we want to get up to 40,000, even 80,000 a month but it will take several years to get up there. >> now the u.s. own stockpiles are putting at risk, should wars break out elsewhere. policy head told jacqui heinrich the cluster bombs are supposed to fill the gap until production can ramp up. >> we have already doubled the production of so-called unitary rounds, artillery rounds with an explosive round, we will continue to increase over the next year or so and so you are talking about this being a bridge over the next 6 to 12 months. >> the war in ukraine has been a key test for the industrial base, mike, which was really set

up for peace time after the cold war ended. no one expected another large ground war in europe. >> sandra: new video just in to fox, showing the aftermath from the severe flooding out of vermont. our drone footage picking up this video of a crane lifting a car out of the river, part of central vermont are in clean-up mode after heavy rain the past two days. this video just in, mike. that is remarkable, picking up an entire vehicle, machinery is. >> mike: brutal, and more severe weather this afternoon, we have nate foy on the scene there. we hope and pray the folks in vermont get some relief. >> sandra: happening just moments ago. >> mike: pricing report reveals higher republican turnout in the

2022 midterms. why analysts say it should alarm democrats. >> sandra: katie pavlich is here to discuss.

the fact that it is -- it's pretty difficult for anybody to really help someone wrap their mind around a.i., right, but this is the vice president has certainly been tasked digging deep into the subject matter and it was interesting, to say the least. >> mike: at the very least was heavily briefed before going into the event so you would think there would be some canned answer she could spit out that would explain it. >> sandra: maybe not coming up with it on the fly in not so articulate way. >> mike: got to think folks at the white house would think she would be further along at this point, we'll see. red flags for some democrats, new analysis finds republicans brought more of their 2020 voters back to the ballot box in the midterms for 2022. let's bring in katie pavlich, town hall editor and fox news contributor. great to have you. >> great to see you. >> mike: women voters, you are a

smart woman i work with. pew research, look at women voters. democrats plus 18 with women in 2018, then plus 11 in 2020, then plus 3 in 2022. do you have thoughts on why and the potential impact on 2024? >> well, it's so interesting to look at the decline of women voters going for democrats, especially in the aftermath of roe v. wade returned to the states. democrats were banking on this. they did win a few seats, local elections on the abortion issue but have tried to gain women back solely on being one issue, single issue voters on the pro life, pro choice agenda. but when it comes to the broader picture, women are more concerned about education, they are concerned about crime, and democrats don't really want to touch those two topics because of the unions and the crime happening in cities that are run by democrats. the other number i thought was fascinating, the hispanic vote. if you look at the 2018 vote margin, democrats won hispanics

by 47 point margin. in 2022, it was 21 points. so they have lost 26 points when it comes to hispanics and republicans have been able to gain ground. also in this research was interesting is that the majority of republican voters now do not have a college degree, the majority of the country does not have a college degree. to see that dynamic play out is interesting as well. >> mike: makes you wonder if the women and hispanic voters were worried about pocket book issues, inflation a big factor. >> it's interesting to see the voting turnout, the study shows republicans had higher turnout in the midterms. well, if you have turnout in red districts that are safe that's not very helpful. you need more republican turnout in blue or purple districts like with abigail and jennifer, but republicans are getting into the mail-in voter game, glenn youngkin flipping seats, looking forward to hopefully get the

senate in virginia, they have a new initiative that many republicans plan on copying to get votes in, thousands of votes down if not more, and they have to make up the gap. and in the 2020 presidential election as well. they are trying to beat democrats at their own game with early voting rules. >> mike: youngkin pushing early voting and also raising a ton of money. makes you wonder about his future. >> it does, and he cannot run for a second term as the governor. still denying a presidential run. we'll see. >> sandra: thank you mike, katie. will actors soon be joining writers on the picket lines? live in hollywood as a massive union votes on a strike that could bring show business to a halt. nergy in just two weeks!
