sued. >> steve: oversight represents people like this. this is why we exist, >> lawrence. good first day. >> wonderful. >> bill: thank you, guys, good morning. whether you like it or not the deal is nearly done. u.s. and iran prisoner swap is happening as we speak. president biden reregarding tehran with $6 billion in unfrozen assets. hope the weekend was glorious. a big week now. i'm bill hemmer, welcome to the program. >> dana: that's the way we go. i'm dana perino and this is "america's newsroom." this qatari aircraft is flying five american prisoners to qatar. this is a government that helped

broker the deal. >> bill: in exchange the oils us is unfreezing $6 billion and 6 prisoners. qatar has received the money. the swap is good to go. >> dana: the deal going through as president biden attends the u.n. kicking off today, general assembly in new york. we're waiting to see if he will comment on it. republicans are slamming the agreement saying it puts a price on americans' heads. >> the administration is trying to act like money isn't if youingible. even if we get the safeguards on the $6 billion and frees up $6 billion of iranian money for terrorism, supporting russia whether it's britteny griner. they got the message. take americans hostage and you get billions of dollars. >> good morning, dana. we just got that alert moments

ago. the administration announcing that the five americans and two family members have departed tehran along with the ambassador on a plane now. iranians are reporting that two of the five iranian prisoners the u.s. is releasing have already arrived in doha. administration hasn't given us the names of the five iranians. they said broadly not people charged or convicted of violent offenses. they were mostly involved in sanctions violations. according to the iranian foreign ministry, two of the five will remain here in the u.s. there are reports that the $6 billion in once frozen funds has already been transferred to qatar from korea via switzerland. administration maintains it is not a ransom payment. these are not u.s. taxpayer dollars but their argument is a little bit self-defeating. listen to the explanation.

>> they aren't going to be released for nothing in exchange. >> didn't they also get five iranians? >> they will get five iranians as well, yeah, jacque. >> why did we need to add $6 billion on top of that? >> this is the deal that we were able to strike. >> u.s. officials say no sanctions are being lifted on iran and efforts to deter iran from getting a nuclear weapon are separate and ongoing. the head of the u.n. nuclear watchdog warns the international community is losing interest in holding iran accountable with violations becoming routine and iran's stock of near weapons grade uranium increasing. republicans say this deal has already had ramifications counter to u.s. interests. >> a third of the inspectors at the iea, the international atomic energy agency have been stripped by iran out and just today this morning the saudis

said this deal with israel you are trying to negotiate, we're out. it's having a damaging effect throughout the middle east. it all started with this very naive transaction of $6 billion. imagine what iran will do with $6 billion. >> depending on exchange rates, the final amount could reach as much as $7 billion. the white house says u.s. is going to maintain oversight of this money. that each request will have to be approved. it will be approved by the u.s. and by qatar and will retain ability to stomp it down if it is not going to the right causes. the money will go directly to vendors that will be fulfilling these humanitarian needs. this will allow iran to free up $6 billion from elsewhere that they could end up using for nefarious activities like proxy wars or nuclear program. >> dana: the effectiveness of sanctions in this case makes you wonder. >> bill: so much to cover on

this. we said $5 billion. jacque said upwards of $7 billion. only for humanitarian needs. iranian president feels otherwise. this is what he told lester holt a week ago. >> this money belongs to the islamic republic of iran and naturally we will decide to spend it wherever we need it. the needs of the iranian people will be decided and determined by the iranian government. >> bill: let's say something else. good for the americans coming home. the five americans and their family members on that plane right now, great. but as you heard jacque report, of the five iranians being released from the u.s., two of them are choosing to remain here in the united states. so go figure on that. >> dana: i don't know how that would be allowed. a couple things on timing and communications. administration the white house toward the end of the day an

nine leave last monday released the information it was going to happen. we didn't know the exact date when they had the deal done and why you had the other news. then on the first day of the u.n. general assembly what's the big news, the headline coming out of that? this prisoner swap. curious decision. >> bill: 5 or 5, okay. the money on top of that raises big questions. more coming up on this and there will be significant fallout throughout the day. >> dana: hunter biden is suing the i.r.s. accusing agents disclosed information that should have been kept secret and that this is inviolation of his privacy rights. comes days after hunter was indicted on three felony charges for lying about his cocaine addiction on a gun purchase form in 2018. >> bill: lots of luck was the

answer there. president biden brushing off the impeachment investigation. just one of the many issues coming to a head as the president arrives in new york yesterday for the u.n. general assembly. kayleigh mcenany is here kicking us off on monday morning. poll numbers in the critical areas are not great, okay? put them on screen. call for number three, here we go. president biden's job performance record high disapproval among key groups. among them suburban women at 61%. women in general 60%. under the age of 45, people at 48% all disapprove. >> bill: a huge problem. when you combine that with minority voters he is underperforming with black and latino voters. the best way to think of this general election so far. let's say the nominee is trump. we don't know yet. let's say for the sake of argument that's the case. you have this universe of 12% of

voters, 6% we are probably voting biden, 6% probably trump. 40% who say definitely trump and definitely biden. 12% in the middle are the persuadeable voters. women and minorities are edging against biden. his camp of 39% voting biden, they are not en tuesdayed or excited. democrats saying -- when you have enthusiasm problems you have a lot of problems. >> dana: i would have loved to been a fly on the wall to listen to democrats over the weekend in positions to make a difference on what they are thinking. "new york times" wrote this. the headline is top democrats bullishness on biden 2024, the discord between the party's elite and its voters a level of disunity over a president running for re-election not seen for decades. it was whispered eight months

ago. the volume got louder. now they are openly arguing about should biden stay in the race while he says i'm staying in. >> it came on the heels of an nbc piece. a direct quote from that piece. when party elites look at joe biden they see the second coming of fdr. when voters look at him that's an old man. the theme we see. james carville ringing alarm bells when we see a lack of enthusiasm among democrats the alarm bells start going off. one of the most fascinating things about the race the establishment andy let in the democratic party and voters are out of touch. >> bill: kamala harris is on this college tour across the country pushing two issues based on what i can see. trying to take away your ability to vote and also the topic of abortion. abortion came up with kristin welker on "meet the press" with the former president donald

trump. he said he can bring all sides together if you give him the opportunity. >> i speak to a lot of democrats. they want a number. there is a number. there is a number that's going to be agreed to. republicans should go out and say the following. i think the republicans speak very inarticulate about the subject other than certain parts of the country. you aren't going to win on this issue. you will win on this issue when you come up with the right number of weeks because democrats don't want to be radical on the issue. >> bill: in florida it's six weeks with ron desantis. would you agree to a 15-week federal ban? and he didn't say yes on that. he gave the answer that he can bring all sides together. >> someone who clearly is playing to a general election audience, no two ways about that. not wanting to be nailed down on the number of weeks. consensus the way nikki haley,

what's the consensus. he said where can we find consensus. republicans can be a little bit more bullish on this try to win hearts and minds. when you look at the gallup poll 37% think abortion should be banned in 13 weeks. do we want to be north korea and china and want to fix countries or in the more humane vein of western university. the argument can be made compassionately. >> dana: no one is talking about the care of the woman, child and the care of them going forward because pro-life should mean helping them. >> i am befuddled the republican party hasn't made them the party to help vulnerable women. >> dana: great to have you here. countdown is on for the second republican debate. six candidates qualified to take the stage at the reagan library. i will be one of the moderators

along with two others. it all happens a week there wednesday. that will be on the fox business network and you can see the final here on fox news channel. >> bill: 10-day countdown technically. >> dana: if you are counting, which i am. i need more minutes in the day is what i've decided. if i could buy some. >> bill: a great night at the reagan library. next wednesday. one of the most advanced weapons in the entire u.s. arsenal is missing. emergency crews are searching for an f-35 fighter jet that went down somewhere over southeastern south carolina. the pilot ejected. he will be okay and taken to a hospital. he parachuted to safety. where is the plane? we're live in our bureau in the southeast with more. find my iphone, good morning. >> good morning. definitely a mystery. the pilot is okay.

military officials say he ejected safely but offered no further details on what led to this what they are describing as a mishap. while the pilot is accounted for the search for the plane is underway. it was an f-35 and part of a marine attack squadron war lords based in south carolina. on social media charleston posted based on the jet's last known position and coordination with the faa we're focusing our attention north of joint base charleston. the number that they are posting is 843963, 3600 asking the public for any information that may lead recovery teams to this missing aircraft. >> bill: 135 million per. you would think it would turn up

somewhere. general jack keane later this hour. thank you, sir. >> catch the person who did this. because every resource that the los angeles county sheriff's department has to bear is going after you. >> bill: point blank murder. you can run but you can't hide the word to a gunman after a sheriff's deputy shot and killed sitting in his car. intense manhunt underway for a cold blooded killer who executed the officer. more on that plus this today on monday. >> dana: how would you feel about a pay raise of more than 20%? the auto workers union holding out for more. >> bill: t-swift making her way into the nfl broadcast booth. there are rumors, stand on by. ♪ are you a veteran,

status quo moving slowly. we had some meetings over the weekend but we still have a long way to go. that's going to be up to the companies on how this plays out. so we'll see how things progress the next few days and if we have to -- that's what we'll do. >> no time soon. solidarity on the line. i tell you, i feel a lot of support for the concept that the workers are making, which is that there are folks in the executive suite making a lot of money and not a lot of guys on the picket line making that kind of money. a sign says end tears. the sign says that. some guys are making $17 an hour working next to guys making $32 an hour. they say that's not fair. bill. >> bill: thank you, jeff flock in toledo, today. see you on down the road. could go on for a while.

thank you. dana. >> dana: breaking news right now. according to sources in los angeles into the investigation into the lapd deputy who was shot and killed inside his cruiser, confirming by fox an arrest has been made this morning. we have no further details at this time. we have here the deputy ryan, he was 30 years old and we have paul mauro former nypd inspector. as the news breaks, the incident happens on saturday night. he was in his vehicle and lapd says we'll get an arrest. does it surprise you they were able to do it so quickly? >> no, they'll get this person. hard to do this thing in public these days. a number of data points you can look for. let's look at the facts that we have in a cold way. 6:00 which is almost right on the hour apparently, this event occurs. he just left the precinct in a marked car in uniform. so they will start to ask

themselves certain things. was the person watching the precinct and watching the command and waiting for somebody to leave the precinct? was his leaving triggered by a phone call to the precinct that was personal to him? as soon as he left the command, this thing happened. a history of those sort of ambushes on police. they happened around the country. there was one very tragically last year here in new york city, 911 on a domestic. two cops go out. guy shoots them both. they both died. there is that kind of thing that could have gone on here and they will look at that. the other thing is the reward. a very heavy reward. they had a car identified. that's often a very significant data point. one of the ways they might have done that is in july of this year, the county there approved license plate readers.

nobody likes the atmosphere of big brother. no expectation of privacy in public with your license plate. if they had the license plate readers deployed by now they may have picked up the mysterious car they know was at the scene. apparently it happened so close to the precinct building the exterior camera from the precinct is what picked up the car. somehow whether they got the plate. once you get the car even if its stolen you have something to work with. >> bill: security video was key. description of a black car. security video and you can go in and zoom in on that you will be able to -- this lasted 36 hours, paul. it looks like they got their guy. >> very much like the kohberger case. the car become significant in that case. white -- you can just follow your nose by that one data

point. i wouldn't be surprised that the car was the break. somebody gave it up. we don't know what we don't know. i was cautious about this yesterday was motive. it feels like an anti-police thing or and outgrowth of the post 2020 atmosphere that obtains in the country these years around cities especially. we talked about it in context of the upcoming presidential election. we don't know that. we have to go where the facts take us. by the end of the day we'll have a lot more facts. >> dana: one other story that got everyone's attention in new york city. the "new york post" cover this morning about some infants who were perhaps poisoned by fentanyl exposure at a new york city daycare. i don't know if we have that "new york post" cover. the new york city mayor adams said it's a wake-up call. it can have an impact on your families and children. drug den playpen and that little one is no longer with us.

>> terrible. what can we say regarding the border that hasn't been said? let's knock that data point right out. fentanyl is coming over the border. it is the spigot. if the federal government is not going to do something to slow all this down on the southern border, the only thing that is left is the back line defense to step up, right? law enforcement. what i would argue is that you get a heavy charge. fentanyl is an opioid. you take a heavy hit. it should be a unique fentanyl enhancement. if you are caught with fentanyl or fentanyl is used and has a result like this, you are taking a heavier hit. sentencing enhancement because anything as the chief of detectives of nypd said recently almost every illegal drug in new york has fentanyl in it. it makes them all potentially fatal. >> bill: stuff stories to get to. maybe we'll get more from la

throughout the morning. check this out. >> we know this is joe biden's fault. we know he wants this open border and we know it's dangerous to americans. that's the problem. >> bill: video. a freight train loaded with migrants heading to the border putting more pressure on the administration and more pressure on these border towns. we'll show you more of that coming up. >> dana: plus saudi arabia's crown prince sitting down for his first interview with a major american news network in four years. bret baier is live from the desert kingdom ahead. home loan to get cash...surprise. some lenders charge hundreds upfront for your appraisal and other fees. not at newday. a veteran shouldn't have to come up with money to get money. my most important kitchen tool? my brain. so i choose new neuriva ultra. unlike some others, it supports 7 brain health indicators, including mental alertness

>> dana: cheering migrants pouring into the u.s. border. fox news exclusively capturing this scene proving that president biden's messaging is doing absolutely nothing to keep migrants from trying to cross

here. bill melugin live at the border in mission, texas. good morning, bill. >> good morning to you. breaking news. we had an absolutely enormous mass illegal crossing take place in eagle pass, texas. right to our fantastic drone team over it this morning. take a look at this video. bp sources telling us well over 2,000 people -- look at that video. well over 2,000 people crossed illegally into eagle pass since the midnight hour. yes, you heard that correctly. more than 2,000, 1 spot, one location as these migrants have no fear of consequences for crossing the border illegally. this is just one part of that group that crossed in a few different areas. you can see how many people crossed this morning as they are still trying to process them out of the area. we have ground video when it was still dark out if we can pull this up. our team was down there as they were still in the process of crossing the river. you will see a stream of people

coming up. that's the port of entry they are crossing under. the legal way to do it right above them. the masses of people are deciding to cross illegally right underneath the port of entry as they are not listening to this messaging of do not come. it appears more may be on their way. you mentioned the train video. look at this. sources giving this video to fox news from mexico showing a train filled with masses of migrants hooting, hollering and cheering as they are heading north to the u.s./mexico border. they are likely going to get here very soon. once they get into mexico they get humanitarian visas like candy traveling throughout mexico and they go right to the u.s./mexico border. expect them to cross in the coming hours or days. lastly we want to take you to arizona. concerning video our team shot there. look at this. illegal immigrants dressed in camouflage scaling the border wall using a hope to get over it and then running off into the

desert without apprehension. you can see a human smuggler on the wall with binoculars guide them. very few border patrol agents in the sector. they don't have the manpower to try to get everybody. these are the guys who don't want to be caught likely with criminal records. not turning themselves in. going the extra mile to try to get away. you can see they go running off into the desert without apprehension making them gotaways. back here live cbp tweeted from its official account over the weekend that the border is not open to illegal immigration. that messaging is not working and it is not the reality on the ground here. it hasn't been for the last 2 1/2 years. send it back to you. >> dana: thank you. bill hemmer, bill melugin is good at keeping us posted. we appreciate that. elon musk noticed and responded with this. why does almost no one else in the media besides you, bill melugin, ever say anything? >> bill: to bill and the rest of our fox crews, you've been on

the border for 2 1/2 years oftentimes bill the other networks are nowhere to be found. i know you have scoured town after town in texas and arizona, etc. you look for them and don't find them, do you? >> you know what? it has been remarkable. elon will share some of my tweets from the border when we pose crazy video or crazy stats wondering where is the coverage? we've been wondering the same thing. we've been here for 2 1/2 years, fox news alone at times. we sent a lot of resources here. drone teams and camera crews. this is non-stop. the numbers are getting worse. despite the white house claiming they're making progress for stopping the flow it is not true and video shows that. the numbers are about to get worse. >> bill: many people did not recognize it until it got to mid town manhattan in new york city. thank you, bill melugin on the border. there we move to the emerging

prince and important to the population here. they just signed renaldo to the saudi football league of a contract of 220 million. invested a bunch of money in sports across different sports, f1, formula e, all kinds, liv golf. they address the criticism coming from abroad that they are sports washing and trying to change their look in the world. that this is really about the people here in saudi arabia and less about the outside world. it is about the kids, population here dealing in sports. you go around here, dana and bill and it is bustling. a lot of construction, a lot of young people, 70% of the population is under the age of 35. as far as the economy goes, i talked to the minister of economy and planning. they say they are doing pretty well. >> dana: and bret i know things have changed quite a bit even in

the last couple of years especially for women. are women there playing sports actively as well? >> women are there playing sports. they have their own leagues. there is a stipulation they can drive. that was lifted in 2018. a lot of other changes since then. i had a sound bite from the minister of economy and planning. it gives you a sense of what they're doing on the economic side. take a listen. >> this data is actually you are seeing and hitting the marks. >> 100%. we've been growing fast. since 2016 our economy has grown without oil 20%. more than many countries around the world. >> you have a lot of controversy that swirl around saudi arabia. just the 9/11 anniversary. the 9/11 families feel like there was more to it and they want more answers.

jamal khashoggi and all the fallout from that. these ministers are plowing ahead moving forward and the transformation is pretty significant. >> dana: glad you are there and looking forward to hearing more of your interviews and seeing you later this week. thanks. >> bill: one of the most fascinating countries in the world today. look forward to that. 20 minutes before the hour. you got a number of states racing to make electric cars king of the road. what are the potential consequences of banning gas-powered vehicles all together? chef ron ceo knows the topic better than most and in studio coming up. casual friday every day. why the upper chamber will no longer enforce its business attire dress code in the senate. do you think that's a good idea? at red land cotton, the bedding

ceo of chevron. these lawsuits seem to come up over and over again. >> this is one of a number of these kinds of actions. ironically many of which have been filed by people that have profited from and encouraged energy production. climate change is a global issue that requires global policy coordination, not piecemeal litigation that benefits politicians and lawyers. >> dana: are you concerned about this lawsuit coming from the california attorney general? >> i haven't seen the suit. we'll respond to it. let me tell you what we're doing. we're working hard to provide the energy that runs the world today. primarily fossil fuels. to do that in a way with less impact on the environment. lower carbon and building new parts of the energy systems. things that can help -- hydro green, carbon capture and storage. we're trying to be constructive and move forward. we'll deal with the litigation. >> bill: what is happening with uaw now.

a quick headline. whatever the uaw strike outcome elon musk has already won. think that's the case? >> well, i can't really comment. i'm not a party to the negotiations there. certainly the automakers are trying to deal with the demand they have for vehicles today which are the ones people really have driven and seem just don't want to buy in large numbers as they try to retool their business for the future as well. it is similar to what we're doing, dealing with the world as it exists today and trying to prepare for a world that we're moving toward. moving toward in a measureded manner. >> dana: people seem frustrated. cars are expensive. gas going up. a map of states trying to ban gas-powered cars . california a huge one. that leads the market. then maryland, massachusetts, new york, vermont, washington. how is this state rulings affecting consumers and affecting how you change your

business? >> electric vehicles are part of the solution on climate. but only a part of it. there are other things. we're the second largest producer of renewable fuels in the country today. those can drop into existing vehicles. reduce emissions today. go into existing infrastructure and make a difference today. i think one of the things that we have to really be careful about in this discussion is to narrow in on single solutions. we need many solutions. the emergency system in the world is enormous scale. we need all solutions. then we need to provide things that allow consumers to make choices who it serves their needs best and not try to force the choices on people. >> bill: right now the consumer has a choice. spend a lot of money and go e.v. or keep what you got and fill it up with gas. call for five here. gas powered cars versus electric vehicles. the ev $64,000. gas powered is $26,000. the mileage for the ev, 234 average. gas powered car is 403.

without government supplements on all the vehicle vehicle production the money doesn't add up. >> automakers can speak to that better than i. certainly the current state is that these are expensive vehicles to produce. they have limited range. they often are the second or third vehicle that somebody owns. gas powered vehicle still meets their primary needs. if you look at the vehicle miles driven on e.v.s versus gasoline powered vehicles, quite a difference. so look, they are coming into the fleet. the automakers are trying to find a way but they're expensive. they don't meet everyone's needs. we are looking on solutions to broadly help deal with the climate issue and be affordable for consumers. >> dana: new discoveries all the time. america may be sitting on a lithium jackpot on the border with nevada and the question would be does that help america figure out a way to get through the energy transition if they

are allowed to mine it or drill for it, whatever it might be? >> it brings up an interesting issue, which is the minerals that are used in solar panels, in wind turbines and batteries come from just a very few countries in the world. more concentrated than oil and gas are. and they are processed in fewer countries, predominantly china. the new value chains as they are built up and as these things begin to scale have many issues that really need to be confronted in terms of cost, reliability of supply and trade issues. so i do think we would like to see more broad sourcing of the minerals and the supply chains for these things. this takes time and permits. >> bill: you mentioned time a couple times. you mentioned a couple times now with chevron is doing. how far away do you believe you are on the time schedule to achieve what you are describing for us today? >> listen, bill. the energy system is enormous
