valley, t-minus 12 hours, all systems go. seven candidates will be on the stage. critical moment in the campaign. every one of these debates are critical. the first vote only months away and team fox coverage with kellyanne conway and bill melugin coming up in a matter of minutes from california. stand by for that. meanwhile there is this from last night. >> what we have tonight is a bunch of criminal opportunists take advantage of a situation and make an attempt to destroy our city. >> bill: it is being called a coordinated attack. anarchy and chaos in philadelphia last night. swarms of teenage looters ransacking multiple stores taking virtual control over the city of brotherly love where we start today. bill hemmer live in new york. dana joins us next hour from california. welcome back to our friend the dream in washington, d.c., how are you doing, shannon? >> shannon: my dream is i get to work with you, bill hemmer. >> bill: you are sucking up.

>> shannon: for the next two hours, more of that. great to be with you. in is "america's newsroom." what you saw there we have to talk about that. these mass thieves destroying stores in the city center smashing windows, knocking over displays, ripping merchandise off the shelves before most could run and get away. nike, lululemon and apple. >> bill: you had 15 arrests more than 100 looters taking part allegedly. now the fight is on to restore public safety in one of america's biggest cities which had a lot of headlines for the wrong reasons. >> the unrest last night was unbelievable in philadelphia. mass looting and vandalism caused by teenagers out of control. that huge mob of looters some in hoodies and masks ransacked stores in the heart of the city, city center breaking into apple, lululemon and other stores after protest against a police shooting at nearby city hall. police officers were seen

tackling looters whose arms were filled with plastic bags stuffed with items like clothes, iphones, ipads. the rampage came after a protest against a judge dismissing murder charges against a police officer. officials say the looting is not connected to the protest. some of the people in the videos aren't collected to the looting. philadelphia police officer was cleared of murder and other charges in the august 14th shooting of a 27-year-old motorist. police said that officer stopped and the man had a gun, two knives and the judge ruled that the police officer shot in self-defense. the mobs of those teens last night simply saw an opportunity to steal. >> we responded through the course of the night again at this point in time we know somewhere around 15 to 20 arrests have taken place thus far. at least two firearms have been recovered. >> philadelphia's progressive

district attorney's office says it disagrees with the dismissal of the charges against the police officer and filed a motion to reinstate those charges. now after last night his office as a slew of new charges against the teen mob. it's the latest example of teenage mobs breaking and entering in stores to clear out all the merchandise. despite the large crowd of over 100, right now as of this morning about 80 teens still have not been caught. >> bill: i wonder how many of those stores had security. maybe we'll find out today. a lot more will have it soon. thank you. shannon. >> shannon: final preps are underway for the second republican debate. a critical test for seven candidates all looking for the break-out moment. bill melugin is live from the reagan library in simi valley tracking it all.

>> even though former president trump won't be on the stage tonight several candidates are going after him hoping to chip into the massive lead he has in the polls right now. that includes governor ron desantis who says donald trump didn't keep several of his 2016 campaign promises. take a listen. >> he said he was going to drain the swamp. they didn't drain the swamp at all. he still defends hiring christopher wray, he didn't fire wray or fauci. he said mexico would pay for the border wall. it didn't happen. eliminate the national debt. they added $8 trillion to the debt in four years. >> former new jersey governor chris christie, a frequent critic of donald trump, is also going on the attack. he says if he is elected on day one he will send the national guard down to the southern border and he is criticizing donald trump for his border policy. he posted this on x last night writing in part, trump told everyone he was going to build

us a big, beautiful wall and that mexico was going the pay for it. we got 52 miles of new wall and haven't received a single peso from mexico. the disaster at the border is just as much his fault as it is joe biden's. tomorrow night i'll be the only person on the debate state willing to address it head on. you can look at this here. ron desantis center stage once again. this is averages of polling how he these positions are set. v vick -- big fireworks between haley and ramaswamy last time. desantis stayed out of it. this time he will be standing in the middle of them and see what happens this time around. donald trump responding to some of these attacks by saying everybody on that stage is wasting their time running against him because he has such a big lead in the polls. one other surprising thing,

california governor gavin newsom will be here tonight at this debate. the biden team is sending him to essentially do counter programming against gop talking points coming out of this debate. send it back to you. >> shannon: thank you very much. big night. >> bill: with us now kellyanne conway up early in california. thank you for joining us. good morning to you. want to show you a couple results. this comes from polling with pew, "wall street journal" here at fox news. 63% are dissatisfied with the candidates meaning trump and biden. 73% think biden is too old. 53% think trump did something illegal in an attempt to overturn the election. there is a target-rich environment. what are you watching for, kellyanne? >> i'm watching for the break-out moments, bill and shannon. but i don't think it means you grab a headline or you are doing memorable turn of phrase. it means are you the candidate that proves to the country you

are ready to be commander-in-chief on day one. the economy is still the number one issue. for all the talk about people being dissatisfied with trump and biden i would remind everybody from 1980 to 2008 we had a bush or clinton on the national ticket the entire time. voters like to say they want change and choice and options and revolution but they tend to stick with what they know. that gives both biden and tumble an advantage. the seven republican candidates are going about taking on trump all wrong. if you want to show that you are ready to be commander-in-chief and president of the united states on day one you have to come here with specific policy prescriptions, not sound bites and you have to give us a 3 or 4 point plan that we can understand that's logical for each of these issues. take law enforcement. you just showed what happened in philadelphia overnight. heartbreaking. it is going on everywhere. democratic party said defund the

police. republican party somebody should stand up and say look, i want to make sure our law enforcement at the border and local communities our veterans and military and military and all the groups that have been denigrated by the democrats time and again. we'll make sure they are generously resourced and deeply respected. they should come out and say if zelensky asked to me meet at the white house last week here is what i would have told him. would you have given more money, would you open up our hearts or pocket books or both? we're having a parents rights renaissance. i want to hear people talk about opportunity scholarships. school choice, charter schools. is 0 proficiency in baltimore. we are mortgageing their futures by not providing a good education. they should take on donald trump by taking on joe biden. the sound bites and the tweets you just showed i think are meaningless if you are not showing the split screen of you

versus joe biden. that's how you win an election. >> bill: good answer there and a big one, complete one. it is a two-hour debate. maybe they have time to get to all that. >> shannon: one less person on the stage, more time to go around with the seven who remain. you mentioned specific groups you would encourage the candidates to say the biden administration has not met you where you are. our recent polling suburban women, black and hispanic voters are peeling away from the biden administration. it comes back to the economy why young americans might favor trump over biden. we may be naturally liberal. we can't make ends meet and know who is to blame. young voters peeling away as well. what do the candidates need to say tonight in connecting with the next generation? >> i would say to young people i know you are concerned about climate and abortion and other issues more than the average voter. however, we believe that you

care about all issues. i'm not a big fan of women's issues, men's issues, youth issues. all issues are everyone's issues. if i were talking to young people from the debate stage i would say under biden economics and their plans you can't afford to get out of debt. student loan debt. you can't afford your first mortgage and buy your first home. life interrapted. because of terrible economic policies. they are delaying and deferring and denying the next stages of life whether they choose to get married or be parents or own their first homes. the statistics show that is going to be delayed for them. mortgage interest rates at a 40 year high and inflation 40 year high. this is hurting young people. i have think the democrats take young people for granted. they take voters of color for granted and women for granted. you are starting to say an attrition away from the democratic party including union members. the big tale of 2020 never told

was how much better republicans did and president trump did even though biden got to the white house among non-white voters. non-white, non-college educated voters "new york times" admitted are leaving the democratic party. the democratic party seems hostile to religion, pro-abortion until the seventh, eighth, ninth, month, you have a lot of religious americans of color who don't like that and say between economy, social issues and education and security. they see the footage from philadelphia. it is concerning to people. >> bill: we'll see how much we're able to cover tonight. great analysis, well done. kellyanne conway, simi valley. it goes down at 9:00 on fox business with ilia and stuart and our friend dana and you can watch it simulcast on the fox news channel as well. off we go. thank you, kellyanne, live in california. breaking news right now. from overseas on an intriguing

story. it has now been solved. a picture of a u.s. army private by the name of travis king in july. he crossed over into north korea at the dmz. he had been in north korean custody for several months and now we're told he is back in u.s. custody. where that happened we don't know. a lot of this reporting is coming from the associated press. in fact, crossing right now to u.s. officials have confirmed this news with the a.p. did he go back to the dmz for the hand over? we don't know. north korea is saying that travis king is out of their country. so more to come on that intriguing mystery from overseas. 12 minutes past the hour now. let's get to this. >> targeting the heads of the criminal organizations but targeting the entire supply chain. from where this begins today in china and then we come into mexico where those two cartels are mass producing the fentanyl.

>> bill: so we have some trouble in the west wing yet again. the president's german shepherd has bitten another secret service agent assigned to his detail. commander, biden's 2-year-old dog has bitten another agent. he has been a bad boy. some are suggesting this might be the 10th or 11th incident. this one happened monday at the white house and since he has been a part of that first family in october, shannon, he has been

in the news. so -- >> shannon: what i love with all these reports is they say it's the 11th that we know of. some of this stuff, remember, we've gotten through foia requests to find out what's going on with the doggy. i'm a huge dog lover. but our last dog would bark a lot. she had a muzzle over her face. it would stop commander from biting people. seems simple enough. >> bill: cesar milan to biden, please call me. maybe they can use his help. >> shannon: i think you're right. we'll stay on that, bill. >> 110,757 americans lost their lives in 2022 and we simply cannot accept a single loss of life. we can't accept that. >> shannon: d.e.a. administrator on staggering numbers.

fentanyl is taking too many lives and devastating too many families across the u.s. she will join us live in a minute. first to griff jenkins who spoke exclusively with u.s. border patrol chief down in eagle pass, texas, good morning, griff. >> good morning. moments ago cbp sources confirmed to fox news in the last 24 hours another 11,000 total migrant encounters across the entire southwest border. here they keep coming. want to show you our cameras here. we have a group in the water now crossing. they will be making their way from the small island over and try to go through the razor wire. you have our drone shot as well with migrants in the water that have crossed trying to get through that water right now to be taken into custody by the national guard and border officials here. more than 5,000 in capacity just in eagle pass, texas. border patrol chief owens saw firsthand where not only are

they hit with the unprecedented numbers, they have more than 60 miles of unpat rolled border because acts have to process all the migrants. a little what the chief told us. >> i need a man on border looking for narcotics and bad people coming across. because of this they can't be there. that's what is keeping me up at night. >> and over in the rio grande valley we hear more than 2,000 there. in san diego declared a humanitarian disaster after they had more than 7500 migrants released to the streets in 13 days. we'll send it back to you. >> shannon: griff jenkins saying on the story. >> bill: we want to show our viewers the impact these cartels have. we believe they employ, the cartels, about 175,000 people. think about that. that's a major corporation. that's more than google, more than ford motor company and more

than dollar general. more than apple and it's more than companies like oracle and big tech. now there is a map behind me now. there is a lot going on. i want viewers at home to pay attention to two things. all the red dots on the coast are ports of entry in mexico where all these chemicals come there from other parts of the world. namely china where the chemicals are produced and put together in labs in mexico. the green dots on our border. these are the ports of entry into america. the main ports of entry. two in california, two in arizona, one in new mexico along the texas border and then three others here in southeast texas. this is a real problem. this is where the cartels get into american towns. the coasts are obvious, right? you would expect that. how about lexington, kentucky. probably wouldn't think about that.

or st. louis, missouri and ann milligram is the administrator for the d.e.a. and joins me now. you have a major headline you are prepared to announce that for the first time lab results conclude that seven out of ten pills seized by the d.e.a. contain fentanyl. is that what you have found? >> yes, that's right, bill. our focus right now is on saving american lives by stopping fentanyl and defeating the two cartels that are responsible for the american deaths. this year already in 2023 we have seized more than 60 million fake pills that contain fentanyl. when i came in in 2021, 4 of those ten pills of the ten pills we were seizing contained a potentially deadly dose, two milligrams or more. last year it was six out of ten. this year we're seeing it is seven out of ten pills that contain a deadly dose. that is really critical to

understand two things. one, we're seizing more than we have ever seized before. last year in all of 2022 we seized about 58 million pills. we have already exceeded. we have now seized more than 60 million fake fentanyl pills. the second piece those pills are more deadly than ever. the cartels are not only making more, they are making them more deadly and they are putting them on the streets of america in every single community. >> bill: this is what strikes me reading through the research. i think it is quite relevant and viewers need to understand. the amount of business we do with mexico every day is phenomenal. all the transportation that goes back and forth. up to 30 million pounds of tomatoes and grapes and other produce that cross every day. in addition you have apparently a lot of passenger cars where you can conceal this easily. that becomes a very tricky point. the third issue i would say is that u.s. citizens apparently are responsible for most of

this. so tie all that together and explain why it is so difficult to stop it. >> so first of all i think we should start even at the beginning which is that fentanyl is the deadliest drug we've ever faced and also incredibly cheap to make and it is easy to transport or hide because the tiny quantities, the amount that you can fit on the tip of a pencil are deadly. and so this has completely changed the face of narcotics trafficking in the world. these are manmade synthetic drugs starting with chemicals coming from china going to mexico where they are made into fentanyl powder and often pressed into pills. the powder and the pills are coming across into the u.s. as we saw in a massive case we did against a network-wide case against the sinaloa cartel, we saw the fentanyl coming in by land, by sea, by air, by underground tunnel. any way possible. tiny quantities are deadly.

one brick can make 300,000 to 500,000 fake pills. so that gives you a sense of how devastating this is and how vital it is we be attacking it at every part of the supply chain. >> bill: 30 seconds left for this last question and that's the live picture back in eagle pass. another group of migrants cross the river. over the years, there has been different drugs you have tried to battle, marijuana back in the day or cocaine. now this deadly stuff. a small little amount can kill a person. how do we stand a chance? >> that's a great question. first of all, i know we're making progress and this is an unbelievably daunting and difficult task. you showed yourself the cartels have thousands of employees. we're tracking them in over 50 countries around the world. we are tracking billions of dollars. in the last year we created strategic teams mapping both of

those cartels. we now know thousands of their members, where the money is flowing, and we're investigating and attacking every single part of that. and i have incredible confidence in the men and women of d.e.a. and other u.s., state and local law enforcement that together we can do this. >> bill: you have a huge job. stay in touch with us and we'll be in touch with you. thank you for coming back on our program. >> thank you so much. >> shannon: stunning admission in the paper of record, why "the new york times" opinion page is admitting that the blm protest and similar progressive movements faded before fulfilling their stated goals. plus, it is debate night in america. seven republican candidates will take the stage. we'll talk to voters in the first caucus states, iowa. what do they want to hear before they make a final pick? that guy will tell us. hi, brian. ♪

security. the government spending, which is completely out of control. energy, which we have all the resources and abilities that we have and it is all choked back by the current administration. there -- almost everything going on in the last 2 1/2 years is wrong. >> you have a lot of issues on your mind and watching tonight's debate. what are you looking for from these candidates? they have had one shot. they have another. the field is smaller. who needs to really step out? what do you want to see happen? >> well, i would like to see tim scott really step out and shine tonight. i really -- he has some good experience. he has some great ideas. i think he is doing this from the heart. all of these candidates are good. i would like to see a good, clean, fair debate tonight. people get their -- everyone gets their fair share to answer questions. nobody gets out of control kind

of thing. that's where we are here in the midwest, conservative values. >> that's what we've heard, bill, time and again this morning. people want to see everyone get a fair shot. they want a debate to hit the issues. we'll be here all day today and tomorrow morning for post debate reaction. so check in with us. we have a lot to say over here at the machine shed and a lot to eat. >> bill: get on that. love it. those voices matter because they caucus. nice to see you, brian. talk to you later today. >> shannon: first it was occupy wall street, then came the #metoo movement and in 2020 massive blm protests broke out and autonomous zones formed demanding change. now "the new york times" is admitting the progressive movements they say failed. let's bring in roe khanna to talk about this.

>> always great to see you >> shannon: they said they were righteous movement that had legitimate concerns and grievances. some got caught up in financial mismanagement and didn't get to the things they've promised. >> the #metoo movement changed the workplace and on capitol hill. the movement after george floyd has had more police accountability. are there issues of mismanagement? absolutely. fair critiques? yes. they've had an incredible movement having greater equality and dignity in this country. >> shannon: as this debates goes on. democrats and republicans about culture and justice issues. there is a warning from james carville long time democratic strategist and what we've heard from president obama as well. be careful how you frame this stuff and how you talk to potential voters. here is carville. >> the left are annoying.

the western far left is habit you willly the most stupid, naive people you can imagine. they come up with this really goofy constructs and it is all about feeling. feeling good about yourself. there is a certain coastal arrogance in this country and people feel it. >> shannon: he said you have all these preachy people telling you what you should do and that's the perception a lot of people have of the left. >> i don't think that's what the progressive movement is about. it's about a working class agenda and a middle class agenda. people in the progressive movement are upset why are ceos making 300 times the average worker? why are wages in this country not going up for ordinary people and too hard to buy a house with wall street buying up housing? i welcome james carville to come to a progressive house meeting.

a lot of economic populism. the types of campaigns he ran with bill clinton in the early 90s. >> shannon: all the talk about the economy. it keeps showing up in the polling that's where people feel a disconnect about this administration meeting the needs they have. another big story we're watching this morning to see senator bob menendez facing arraignment on a number of charges. growing calls for him to step down. "new york times" says the stampede of senate democrats led by some of the party's most endangered incumbents rushed forward on tuesday calling for menendez to resign a day after he defiantly vowed to fight federal corruption charges and predicted he would be exonerated. due process, innocent unless proven guilty? where do you think we should frame not only the criminal issue he will face but he would like to hold onto his seat. >> cory booker had it right. he serves with menendez in new jersey. these allegations are so serious

that it doesn't make it possible for senator menendez to be able to represent new jersey effectively. a lot of his colleagues have said the same thing but the big issue how do we reform congress? banning pac money, stopping stock trading, having term limits and with judicial code of ethics. let's get behind a plan. it's got some bipartisan support. >> shannon: looks like you may get to votes in the house on big financial issues. a separate conversation. thank you for making time. >> bill: while you were talking with the congressman we were watching a drone image back in eagle pass, texas, where you've got a town population of 28,000 but with all these migrants that has absolutely been eclipsed and blown away. the state of texas had put down p barbed wire on your screen. depending on the day and depending on the moment and the

flow of those who are crossing that river, oftentimes the order comes down from washington to cut open the barbed wire and allow those crossing the river to gain entrance into texas and in essence the united states of america where they are processed and either stay in texas, head out to places like new york city. so we were just watching this. this is a fairly large group, although we have seen much larger groups in the past. when the drone angle pulls out you can see the men, the women, the children in many cases who are waiting for a decision on their fate at this hour. so watching it all day. they are back at it in eagle pass, texas already. back to shannon now and more with this. >> there is all kinds of concerns to be involved, whether the children are runaways or whether they not they get involved in drugs, gangs or violent crimes or taken against their will. >> shannon: children vanishing

from ohio neighborhoods in shocking numbers. police desperately searching for the cause. why the state's attorney general says some of those investigations are flawed by inaccurate data. plus the uaw strike raging on as picketers get a major backing boost from president biden. is the white house throwing a wrench in negotiation. we'll go to the white house for answers. >> what you have earned. a hell of a lot more than you are getting paid now. reds upfront for your appraisal and other fees. not at newday. a veteran shouldn't have to come up with money to get money. so many hotels... [yells] [yells] [yells] trouble booking the family vacay? come on. comfort has free hot breakfast for the whole fam! they have waffles! and splendid pools! cannonball! i'm patriotic kenny. and, hi, i'm amanda.

(we set up the patriotic kenny foundation) (to give mobility scooters to veterans.) it has changed my life tremendously. (none of this would've happened without tiktok.)

>> for some reason in 2023, we have just seen an awful lot more than we normally see. we don't know what's going on with some of these kids, whether they are being trafficked or whether they're involved in gang activity, drugs. >> bill: this is an intriguing story. troubling disappears answers. more than 1,000 children vanishing over the last nine months in ohio. 45 disappearing this month alone. david yost is with me now. you say depleted resources on behalf of your police department has hindered your ability to track this or figure it out. explain that. >> look, if you are a cop, you

have to run on murders and rapes and robberies in progress. the ability to enter data into a computer terminal to make the attorney general happy and have his reports complete isn't exactly at the top of your list and cleveland, for example, is over 250 officers down. >> bill: that's substantial. in cleveland and the akron area reports a lot of these missing kids. call for one. 15,555 missing in the year 2022. 96% of whom have been found by police. that's why that police component is so important. but 1,000 are still missing this year. do you know the breakdown among runaways or gang-related involvement, or abductions for these kids? >> so the data is a little bit spotty. we don't know for sure.
