performers. he is amazing. ant cute. >> steve: brett young, the last one second of the program with donny osmond, the mack will he more brothers who are barbecuing in front of the building right now, they brought out the world's biggest chocolate chip cookie. donnie put his face in the cookie and popped out just in time. he was completely smeared up. it was great tv, actually. >> rachel: is he an entertainer. >> brian: thoroughly his idea. i'm putting my face in that i go what? did you just did you go are putting your face in that? >> steve: in a cookie. you are supposed to eat a cookie. >> rachel: save weekend show. brian pete would beat him to it pete and will. he did leave it on his face. >> rachel: he left a good impression. >> steve: it is great to have you on this friday before the long holiday weekend. rachel, thank you very much for joining us. >> rachel: so happy to be here to fill in for ainsley.

>> steve: very busy three hours that starts right now. we start this morning with the border crisis again, sadly, because president biden is now taking hits from both sides as his own party calls out the immigration policy failures being felt around the country. >> rachel: despite the ongoing surge the white house claims no one has done more. when we read this yesterday, and as woe read the prompter, we all laughed out loud. no one has done more to secure the border than joe biden. >> brian: and who false is it that he hasn't done more than the more he has done? republicans. griff jenkins live in washington with the details. few people know more about the border in our nation than you. you are the reporter. tell us what is up, griff. >> griff: it's never been more unsecure, brian, steve, and rachel. good morning, happy friday. the number of families crossing our southern border reportedly are reaching an all-time high last month. that's according to the "the washington post" who reports

there were 177,000 border apprehensions with 91,000 of those crossings as part of a family group, more than we have ever seen before in history. congresswoman alexandria ocasio-cortez pinning the blame on the federal government, telling the "new york times" this, quote: immigration is arguably this administration's weakest issue. this is one area where our policy is dictated by politics arguably more so than any other. the white house, well, they disagree. >> the president has done what he can from -- from here, from the federal government, from the white house, to put forth and manage our border in a safe and humane way to respect the dignity of every human. the president has done more to secure the border and to deal with this issue of immigration than anybody else. he really has. >> griff: this is a crisis that border states know all too well although one so-called sanctuary

state is finding out massachusetts, new jersey, new york, all saying they can't handle any more of the migrants, massachusetts activating 250 national guard members to deal with it. guys, it's really difficult to put into words just how bad it is right now. my colleague, bill melugin, talking about the 7,000 apprehensions in one day on tuesday. and, get this? overnight the border patrol chief in the u.s. virgin islands, in the caribbean, said there was an apprehension of 26 migrants from china, venezuela, columbia and the dominican republic. guys? >> i got word from one of the producers in the control room about five minutes ago mayorkas, the secretary of homeland security broke into the control room and went into the teleprompter and wrote the border has never been so secure. that's where it comes from. actually, it's like upside down

world because it does not look secure, right in the white house says right now the immigration is a problem. but is blaming, among other things, the fact that republicans won't change the laws. but, also, political stunts. they say, you know what? these like governor abbott down in the great state of texas, he is shipping the migrants out. he is creating the problem, they say, the white house. >> rachel: let's talk about political stunts. i think one of the most interesting things about this whole story that we just laid out is aoc coming out and criticizing the biden administration. do you remember the political stunt she pulled when she went to the border, when donald trump was in office? and she was wearing white jeans, and she was outside of the detention centers and she was crying and she had brought cameras with her, very meghan markle style. will. >> steve: there she is. >> rachel: there she is crying out. the reason that the children were separated at the border was so that we could determine was the person that they came across

truly their parent or not? will. >> steve: that's important. >> that's pretty important to find out. the democrats have refused by the way to do d.n.a. tests which we need to do d.n.a. tests to verify whether the children going with the person claiming them is their parent or not. right now because of aoc, and joe biden, 80,000, our government has lost track of 80,000 children. we have no idea where they go. they say oh, we're doing this because this is safe and humane the way they are doing this, the policies right now. it is not safe and humane to lose 80,000 children that we do not know are in child labor and child sex trafficking. >> brian: in that story they said the reporter in the "new york times" followed up and said well, you went to the border during of the trump years. why don't you go to the border now? well, there is something we are actively working on. what i have done is take tours of our new york area facilities right now the crisis in our own backyard. >> steve: she is right about that. >> brian: important to us, especially my constituents. i want to go. i will go.

yeah, right. you don't want to go because you know what you will see. in new york, this is amazing. it's watching those annoying neighbors fight with each other instead of fighting with you. you have the mayor blaming the governor, the governor blaming the federal government, and the mayor. so the governor goes down to the white house to complain to the democratic president, he does not show up for the meeting, he says he is too busy. and some of the advice i gave you a list of facilities to put people in. one of which is -- we'll paulk did this later, too. >> is the ethics airport. the other suggestion we have is you know those are letter. have them pay some of the money the lawn did i service and the menu and the shelter. now mayor adams who can't think around the corner let these people work. 08,000 here.

100,000 came through. if you give them jobs, there won't be any males left in central south america, the czech republic or norway. the whole world is going to come here. and what about the workers that we have in america and where are the unions in the unions used to go crazy about stuff like this. but now it's not politically advantageous for them to do it. but their members are being hurt. >> steve: well, you mentioned the atlantic city airport. that is a federal facility. that's one of the spots in the region that they want to send the migrants, the new jersey governor, mr. murphy is saying no don't send them to new jersey. >> brian: welcome, embrace. >> steve: he said he wanted to make it a sanctuary state. actually he is not going to make it a sanctuary state. jeff van drew use dod be a democrat. swapped parties. republican now from new jersey going to be talking about this topic in about 18 minutes. >> brian: i just have one more nugget to add. the democratic governor of massachusetts has now declared a state of emergency because they

have so many illegal immigrants. first last week people of massachusetts will you take an illegal immigrant in? what could go wrong. >> steve: to your bedroom. >> rachel: into your home. >> brian: whatever. just sleep upstairs. >> steve: sleep on the couch. >> brian: sleep next to little billy and madeline and get some rest. tell me what you want a big bed and breakfast state. then last week yesterday she said i will have to mobilize the national guard. this is all your party's help. this is all your doing. >> rachel: like the people on martha's vineyard, yes, bring are the illegal immigrants. as soon as they came she she island. >> brian: went to a military facility. >> rachel: called the national guard went out. >> steve: we were kidding. >> brian: it's the republicans' fault, everybody knows. >> steve: move from new york city out to the west coast. and in particular, you have seen how california has degraded itself. and we have seen all those really shocking smash and grab

video surveillance things that something breaking into a car. dave cortez has proposed senate bill 553. and essentially it's aimed to prevent workplace violence. in that he actually put a clause that kept workers from confronting shoplifters like as you can see right there. i believe they were -- those people were leaving a ruly vitton at the big mall out there. well, he heard from so many small business owners, who said that is a dumb idea. because if you can't confront shoplifters, we're just going to get cleaned out each and every day. i think that's a nordstrom's right there. as it turns out. he took that out. now, they only require staff to know how to contact law enforcement in response to workplace violence. and as it turns out as well,

half of retail theft is unreported. because the original bill called for security experts, a lot of gas stations, for instance. had to hire 24/7 security guards. that runs $30,000 a month. that's $360,000 a year. and gas station, convenience store they don't have the money, they told that guy it was a dumb idea and that's why he took it out. >> brian: that's a lot of charleston shoes you have to sale. >> rachel: having to bring their own private security. if you lived in latin america you would know that if you go to the mall, if you go a store, they hire private security outside of their stores. we are turning -- in so many ways the legal system, what's happening with trump, and, you know, not allowing people to have you know, an opposition imprisoning them and using the. >> brian: wasting all the money trying trump. >> rachel: yeah, trying trump.

and then this situation. we are slowly deteriorating into latin america. i lived by the way in san francisco for a year. it was one of the most beautiful cities in the world. and what's happening in the mission district, a place where used to be able to go and have wonderful food, it was -- had its own sort of vibe there. >> steve: are you talking about gracias madre that just closed? >> rachel: rach yes. a restaurant that was very famous. had a line going out. >> steve: vegan restaurant. >> rachel: had to close down because of crime. here was the note on the door. the condition of life in san francisco has deteriorating and made running a small business nearly impossible. brian, i don't know when these liberals will wake up and realize it's their leadership, as long as they keep voting in people who want to defund police or want to come up with stupid rules like you can't chase down criminals who are robbing your store, i don't know what they expect to happen. >> brian: i mean, what they are

going to do ruin these cities and move out. the people that are rich and wealthy they can do that while other small businesses shut down, let alone the economic strife that's happening now because they can't take out loans to sustain their business or float their payroll. couple things that is happening all self-inflicted. definitely correctable. but the problem is you are going to have a long lag in getting enough cops to do the job. you have to show to them they will be allowed to do their job. and in almost every state where they have allowed these zero cash bail, it's resulted in crime going through the roof. and you can't have it both ways. i was just on the way in hearing about an escaped prisoner over in pennsylvania. this is a guy that just stabbed his girlfriend 34 times in front of her two small kids. he goes jail for life. up for the death penalty beings answered got out in one day. when asked, why? well, the jails are under staffed. they are overworked. we don't have enough marshalls to chase this guy down. we don't have enough cops on the street. so rural pennsylvania can't

staffer, san francisco can't staff. will san francisco can't staff, and when they're allowed to do stuff. they are not allowed to grab them and hold them. this is a perfect storm of idiocy. >> out in thurston county washington state a fellow by the name of derek sanders he has seen the smash-and-grab stuff like we just showed you. the department posted on facebook a message, essentially, targets the people hey you smash and grabbers, you got to come up with a new business plan because we're going to getcha. here's the schiff. sheriff.>> if you come to thursn county and you decide you are going to do tens of thousands of dollars to our businesses damage. you are going to smash that stolen car and hop in your buddy's stolen car and flee from the scene. we are not going to chase you. the state is not pulling over. if you flee we will chase you. we will conduct a pit maneuver. we use a tactical vehicle pin your car. in if you flee on foot, we will

chase you on foot then too. if we lose you in the foot chase, then we will send the dog after you. and we are going to be relentless in our efforts to capture you. they are driving small business out of our area and as a community we cannot and should not tolerate it. >> brian: this is washington state. that is great that they are empowered to do so. >> rachel: are they? >> brian: if they're empowered to do it. >> steve: the sheriff will do it but the courts will let them go. >> brian: hopefully the local courts maybe won't. >> the crazy thing is, that -- what he did, if we just do that nationally we can get ahold of this thing within a year. >> rachel: yeah. that's what the purpose of government is to keep us safe. >> brian: what are they dag in chicago two years ago no longer chase suspects. and they are starting to do that in new york, too. >> rachel: you know how we talked earlier how we were reading the headlines about aoc about the jean-pierre the press secretary saying that the border is safe and we all started laughing out loud? we had the same thing happen over the weekend headline news

the mayor of chicago said we are going to sue the car company because people are stealing the cars. >> steve: blaming the carl's for car theft. >> rachel: we started laughing out loud. are they going to sue homeowners when they get robbed because, i mean, all of it is so insane. >> steve: upsight down world. >> rachel: we're in clown world. it's official. >> steve: it is a friday in the summer. you know what that means. it means our all-american concert series is today. mclemore boys are out front. neighbors with the smell of barbecue. >> brian: which is better than the smell of pot. >> we'll smoke that for you, brian. steve, rachel, brian, thank you all for having us, as always. it is all about wings today. we got red, white, and blue wings that we're cooking on the master built. >> and today is national burnt end day. cookbook coming out next year has a burnt end recipe that i

did that you do on a griddle. you finish them off. and we wanted to kind of talk about getting a thanks to that everybody helps us pull off the 15 weeks. >> dad, what was your favorite concert this year? >> i'm going to agree with steve. i think flo rida and donny osmond were my two favorites love to dance. what i loved about done any not only how he was so engaged with the crowd. how he stuck his face in our 8-foot smoked cookie that day. it was probably my highlight. so, awesome. >> of course i love flo rida. he puts on a show. thanks to master built. lanes barbecue. whole team to put on all 15 weeks. thank you for having us. mclemore boys cook it up. >> follow up. thanks to fox. great 15 weeks. 7:00 coming back to you all and bringing some food inside. get ready brian, you better be ready. >> brian: all right. >> rachel: can't wait.

>> steve: they mention flo rida. they love flo rida. they had the big tomahawk steak and just started chewing on it. same thing he did last year. the featured entertainer today is bret young and he is fantastic. i got a feeling we have a new name for the top of the list. >> rachel: we might have that. new york city transgender policy legal limb bottom of the dueling protect parent rights. to two garden state parents join us live. >> steve: talk about bang for your buck. a delaware mom $4 art purchase is set to sale at auction for a quarter of a million dollars. where did she find is that? find out straight ahead. you are watching "fox & friends." it's friday.

is if a kid identifies as transgender and wants to change the genders at school and not tell the parents, the state is fine with that except your school board, rather your school districts are fighting back. explain. >> yes. they are fighting back. they feel that teachers should not keep secrets from parents. these teachers have to inform parents anything that goes on in school, such as asking for medicine or certain snack or to watch tv for a school trip, anything. so to have our teachers keep these secrets from us, it's disheartening. it's disheartening to know that teachers want to get involved in homelife as opposed to just teachers teaching. >> steve: kara, you feel like -- with these young people, these children in school, they need guidance. and for most families, the

guidance comes from the parents. >> yes. i think it's a disservice to the children. i think that if god forbid my child needed me, and they were struggling with gender identity and god forbid they took their life and i had no idea that they were going through, this it doesn't make me a bad parent because i didn't know. maybe they just didn't feel comfortable telling me, but once i do know, i can be there to get them the guidance. and personally i wouldn't want my kid being counseled by strange counselors in school are they pushing them to transgender at age 9 and starting pursuant blockers? >> steve: yeah. cat reena, how big an issue is this in your town? on the pickleball field the

consent. so how is that equality only transgender kids allowed to do that. we are asking 7-year-olds, 9-year-olds, 1-year-olds. they are not 18. they should not be allowed to go through this transition alone. i think parental involvement is paramount. >> steve: you are not the only one who feels that way. catalina and kara, thank you for telling us your stories. let's see what happens. >> thank you. >> thank you. >> steve: thank you. all right. now, coming up next, 6:30 here in the east. the biden administration reportedly looking to send migrants to an airport in atlantic city, new jersey. congressman jeff van drew represents that area and says bad idea. he's coming up next. ♪ with my psoriatic arthritis symptoms. but just ok isn't ok. and i was done settling. if you still have symptoms after a tnf blocker

atlanta county can't do it. this town can't do it. it should have never happened. hopefully it won't happen it. we will fight this every ounce of strength that we have. it is the wrong thing. you know, when we said what was happening at the southern border was going to effect the entire united states of america this is what happens. i want people listening out there, this is not just an arizona problem or a texas problem or a california problem. this is a united states of america problem and now they want to come into our beautiful county, our beautiful south jersey and try to ruin that as well. there is also national defense issue here. we have the faa technical center there. doing very important work. some of it which is very significant for the safety of this country in air flight. and we have our f 16 there as part of the defense as well.

part of the air national guard the 177 fighter wing. they are the first line of defense for washington, d.c. in and new york city. this is the worst generation i used to say in my life time no, this is the worst administration in the history of the united states of america. >> rachel: congressman, you see that the mayor of new york, the governor of new york their solution is give us more money and we will find more places to put these people and working with the administration to do it. it just doesn't make sense. if you have this many that you can't house, that you don't have enough money to do it, that you are willing to even put it in places that you say could, you know, compromise our national security, the answer is to go to the border and seal it, and shut it down. it's so obvious. literally an elementary school child can understand why are any

leaving the border open? you were a democrat. explain to us with common sense. why are they allowing this to happen? >> it's purposeful. it's destructive and it's corrupt. it is the change, the social structure of the united states of america it's literally self-destructive. i have never seen anything like it. that's why we need an impeachment inquiry. it's another reason. you don't want to do the impeachment yet. at least do the impeachment inquiry. because, in my committee, it would allow us to go forward and to have more powers for subpoena allow hour powers to investigate. it's not a mistake, accident. it's purpose. it's harmful and wrong thing to do. is he not fulfilling his obligations as a president of the united states. and do you know what? we don't want to be a sanctuary airport if they want to be a sanctuary city in the city. that's up to them. it's hurting the city
