educated class. so that's the other big they think over the past 40 years, college educated adults, the most successful adults in our society, they are still getting married in high numbers, raising their kids and married two parent homes. outside the college educated class, more economic vulnerability, the couples with kids around, 20% more likely than before to set up a one parent home. why are couples outside the college educated class not finding marriage to be an attractive or feasible institution in which to raise children. >> jacqui: one writer blames lack of good med. read it from the "washington post" opinion piece, single mothers do understand a two parent household would be a better resource to raise a child. their problem in real life, plausible marriage partners are on thin ground. elite infighting will not change the fact a good man is

increasingly hard to find. why is that? >> we know in communities particularly hard hit in the 80s, 90s, early 2000's by economic shock, nonemployment, reduction of earnings among men outside the college educated class, in those places marriage decreased and the share of kids raised by single moms increase. so there is a direct channel from weakened economic position of noncollege educated men -- it's not just economics. there are more likely to be dealing with substance abuse, more likely their own trauma, more likely to be violent or have violent tendencies, a lot of reasons why couples don't get married, some of it is economic. there is also, you know, been a social normalization of having kids outside a two parent, married parent setting. >> john: some single women decide look, i'm not going to

meet anybody so i want to have a child. a quick button on this, just about out of time. there are a lot of women out there who are single or men who are raising a child by themselves. if we can't find them a partner immediately, what can we do? >> improve the economic security of one parent households, 100%. expanded child tax credit reduced child poverty by 40%, a stronger safety net but never going to close the gaps between 1 and 2 parent homes to get kids through college, shoring up household resources just through government programs. that's why i think it's important to focus on root causes as well. >> john: interesting and provocative new book, melissa, great to talk to you. appreciate it. >> thanks for having me. >> a beautiful sweet 9-year-old girl. blonde hair, bangs, green eyes,

under five feet tall. >> john: a young girl went missing while on a camping trip with her family. police say 9-year-old charlotte cena was abducted and may be in imminent danger. "america reports" starts hour two with the search. thanks for pinch hitting today. >> jacqui: charlotte cena saturday night riding her bike and vanished, moreau state park. >> john: her parents say she had been riding the bike around dinner time when she decided to take one last loop by herself. just like a big girl would. but the fourth grader failed to come back after 15 minutes. >> her bike was later found abandoned and little charlotte still missing, despite a massive search involving more than 100 people. >> at approximately 6:45 the

bike in loop a, and the mom called 911 to report the child missing. after the search we could not find her here, it was possible an abduction had taken place. >> the fbi is involved. former fbi special agent nicole parker. your heart goes out to that family, but what does it tell you that the fbi is involved at this stage? >> it tells me they are taking this extremely serious. as a former fbi agent, there is nothing more important to a law enforcement officer than protecting a child. they are the most vulnerable individuals in our society and it is -- they will pull out all stops to protect a child who is missing and to find her and bring her home safely. >> jacqui: we hear they may believe she's in imminent danger. anything to read into that, anything to do with maybe some activity in the park they noticed that was unusual or is it just the timeline, you know,

we are at monday now, she disappeared on saturday night. what do you take from that? >> obviously the timeline is concerning. longer it goes on, the drastic it becomes. it's all hands on deck. atvs, drones, aviation, airboats, every sort of device possible, they are putting out there. they are going to be doing likely a cell phone analysis of all the cell phone towers hitting around the time this little girl went missing on saturday evening. and to see which phones were in the park and which phones left the park. they could be reviewing video surveillance cameras if there were any, and if there were cameras inside the park as well. something else that's important, law enforcement, they may have received multiple calls of suspicious behavior in the recent past. maybe there was an individual harassing other children. that's extremely important to look at as well, and interviewing those that were most recently with her, the young children with her prior to her saying hey, i want to take a

loop around the lake by myself, they are going to ask her, those children what did she say, what did she do. and she is only nine years old but did she have a cell phone. if she had a cell phone, what were her text messages saying, interacting with, online presence? was she on social media. who was she interacting with and what were they saying. now, if she didn't have social media, her parents may have had social media. do they post about this camping trip, post pictures of their children, do they say where they are going, what they were going to be doing. all things law enforcement are looking at and all hands on deck. >> jacqui: how long does something like that take, review of all of the data. meanwhile, a little girl last seen in a state park upstate new york. it's october. >> so you have multiple officer doing different roles. you have obviously the people on-site doing the search and behind the scenes what you don't see, you have analysts running

reports. pouring through all the information and the data and working 24/7 until it's solved. it is new york, it is october, we want this girl to be found obviously and nothing, nothing is going to stop them from continuing the search. i cannot tell you how important it is for the media to get involved and thank you for covering this story. it is going to be individuals who are going to provide tips or information that may lead to her being rescued. we don't know how far she might be from the site. if she was abducted and taken in a car, she could be far from the location. all hands on deck effort and everyone needs to participate. as a former fbi agent i can tell you we need to maintain hope and i truly believe in the power of prayer. i cannot tell you how many investigations i worked where prayer made all the difference. >> jacqui: assuming that maybe there wasn't any nefarious activity involved, say she fell on her bike and is hurt in the park. how much longer do we have, i

guess, before, where being exposed to the elements for this long would be tough on a 9-year-old's body. i mean, obviously she must be scared, but what kind of, i guess, state might she be in right now and how urgently should people start volunteering their efforts and taking this into account this needs to be acted on right now? >> right. you know there were several thousand acres in this park and initially law enforcement said look, let us do our job and we don't want people on the trail, they closed the park. i'm not sure what point they are going to ask for assistance but we need to trust they are doing the best that they can. you know, elements are something to consider but her bicycle was found, it's not that her bike disappeared, her bicycle was found and that would probably give law enforcement a feeling that she likely may have been abducted. >> jacqui: thank you so much, nicole. obviously we have had -- our hearts go out to that family.

god spend to law enforcement and all those federal officials helping in the search. you hope she comes home as soon as possible. thanks so much, nicole. >> the president looks at what's happening at the border, he sees a border that is effectively closed. >> what i'm saying the president without the help, without the help of republicans is doing everything that he can to deal with the border. they are trying to politicize it, and make it worse, make it worse, that's what republicans are trying to do and make -- turn it into a political stunt. the president is actually dealing with the issue that's in front of him. >> john: moments ago, fox pressing the white house on the unprecedented migrant crisis, and karine jean-pierre blaming the republicans. >> jacqui: the numbers don't lie. encounters for september, exceeded 260,000, highest

monthly total ever recorded. >> john: and sanctuary cities are feeling the ripple effect, especially in new york city. state's democratic governor claims it could be solved in a few minutes. >> instead of gambling with the future of the country, roll up your sleeves and sit down with democrats and get in the room and figure it out. i could do it in about five minutes. it's not that complicated. >> john: mark meredith live at the white house, maybe she should move to washington and give every down here five minutes. what do you think? >> good afternoon. i'm sure it's something that would generate debate. here on the south lawn, expecting a presidential event any moment but the white house is facing questions about the issue playing out in major cities like new york, d.c. and chicago, the migrant crisis happening. the white house continuing to push the blame on congressional republicans to get something done. even as you mentioned, some top democrats are calling on the white house to come up with a plan b.

kathy hochul, a top democrat told them, needs to be limit on asylum seekers, generating a lot of attention. and abc washington post poll found 62% of americans disapproving of the job performance on the southern border. administration says it's a global issue, not one isolated just to our country. secretary of state antony blinken saying the world is facing an unprecedented global displacement crisis in which record numbers of people have been forced to flee war, persecution and instability. but activists say it's coming out of washington, and some lawmakers urging the white house return to covid era policies when it came to the southern border. >> remain in mexico raised the bar for asylum as well.

take away funding for biden's irs agents and get more border patrol agents. >> always goes back to money. the white house says they will spend more money on enforcement but don't want to see the border wall, a big part of the debate in 2016 and 2020. no indication here in the next few months, instead, honoring the americans with disabilities act 30 years ago. >> john: beautiful day on the lawn. >> it's hot. >> john: you'll be wearing a coat soon. joining us by phone is sheriff brown, met with elon musk during musk's tour of the border. you spent time on the border with elon musk who clearly brought a lot of attention to this issue. my question is, what about kamala harris? what about the border czar? are you curious she's not down

there bringing attention to this? >> i am very curious, you know, that's been something that, you know, elon, he showed up and there is he very beginning when he's livestreaming what's going on on the border, i think there was like 64 million views. so you are talking about a person that can put out the truth and touch the world, i think that's what elon did whenever he visited the border and we appreciate that because now -- we -- texas, we could close the border in texas but it's kind of like the state law enforcement fighting with the federal side of everything and what the biden policies are. >> john: as we have seen, we are seeing pictures of elon musk and congressman tony gonzalez down there by the concertina wire put in by the texas national guard, which we frequently see customs and border protection cutting and opening up to allow migrants

to come up the riverbank after they have been standing in the water for some time. numbers, unofficial, from cbp sources, during the month of september, more than 260,000 people crossed the southern border illegally. that would put the total for fiscal year 23 and again, this is an estimate, we don't yet have the official numbers, at more than 2,466,000, which would be an all-time record. and those, sheriff, are just the migrants we know about. not the ones who escaped detection. >> exactly. yes, so multiply that by 4 to 6 times, it depends who you talk to what the numbers are. and the border is not open to mexico, but open to the world. and people need to get a globe and put their finger on china and around the globe and see where the people travel to. we, because of biden, and

happened when he got elected, that's the reason we have an open border and he had an invitation for everybody are to come. and they are coming. the trains -- they had to shut down the railroad because of the number of people riding the trains and unless you visit the border and you see it for yourself and you don't have your head stuck in the sand like they do in washington, d.c., it's real, and it is an invasion. you take a town of eagle pass, 28,000 people population, and you try to get a person that lives there in the hospital, the hospital is full of people that have illegally crossed the border. and when i say illegally, border patrol was there and line them up on busses and take them away. they have not been sent back. and you know those numbers, not all the people are eligible to

be in the united states. >> john: big cities like new york are feeling the pinch as well. what governor hochul said yesterday on a sunday program. >> we want them to have a limit who can come across the border. it is too open right now and that's a problem for new york city. 125,000 newly arrived individuals and we are being taxed. >> john: limit on who's coming across the border, it's too open now, we are being taxed. critics might say crocodile tears from a governor who touted her state's status as a sanctuary state. >> exactly, exactly, that's exactly what she gets, and it's coming. it's coming to everybody's back yard to their town, and i'm just proud that we have a governor that has the, i don't know what i can say on the radio, but he has the guts to stand up and try to hold that line down there

with the texas national guard and the department of public safety and local law enforcement. i visited with state troopers from florida that are down there on the border trying to help with this problem. >> john: yeah. well, it's not going to go away any time soon. nobody is indicating any kind of change, and this administration is coming out with policies that critics say are only going to increase the pull factor. thank you for spending time with us. appreciate it. good luck to you. >> yes, sir, you are welcome. >> jacqui: department of justice appears to have solved the question who leaked former president trump's tax returns to the press. details coming up. >> john: attorney general merrick garland firing back at the critics over the hunter biden and trump prosecutions. did it sway any americans over his tenure at the doj. kerri kupec urban is coming up next.

>> john: feds have charged an irs contractor with stealing private tax returns and leaking them to the media, including the filings of former president trump and thousands of the country's wealthiest people. a senior national correspondent has more from the d.c. newsroom. is this fellow looking at jail time, rich? >> he is, john. justice department says charles littlejohn faces five years in prison if convicted. prosecutors say he stole and leaked tax information for thousands of the wealthiest american taxpayers and "while working at the irs as a government contractor stole tax return information associated with a high ranking government official." that government official, according to law enforcement sources, former president trump. the justice department says he

took this information from 2018 to 2020, a timeline that matches 2020 report citing trump's tax information and 2021 article about how much the wealthiest americans pay in federal incomes. prosecutors say littlejohn stole tax information dating back more than 15 years. the court document fails to mention how he accessed the information. a massive unprecedented breach of tax data. during the time former president trump was in a fight with congressional democrats over releasing his tax returns. unlike other presidents and major party candidates, trump refused to release his taxes. last year democrats on the house ways and means committee released several returns. the sides are discussing a plea agreement. his attorney declined to comment. the irs had no comment. justice department says a treasury department inspector general is also looking into this case.

john. >> john: all right, look forward to seeing what else comes of this. thank you, jacqui. >> jacqui: attorney general merrick garland fired back at critics for saying that there is a two-tiered system of justice and that he works for the american people not president biden. kerri kupec urban, thanks for being here. i want to play a bit from garland, kind of a remarkable interview, your thoughts on it. >> we do not have one rule for republicans and another rule for democrats. don't have one rule for foes and another for friends. don't have one rule for powerful and another for the powerless, the rich or the poor based on ethnicity. only one rule and that is follow the facts and the law. >> jacqui: seems to take on the criticism head on. claims that have been leveled against him and the president. did he achieve anything, though,

and earn any trust back with this interview? >> i think it was good he did the interview and he has to take questions from the american people or the media in light of the criticism to keep going and some of the actions taken by the department of justice. i have no doubt that he genuinely believes and tries to live his life there is one rule of law for everyone. however, i think it's divorced from reality when it comes to what we are seeing at the current department of justice and see it especially, this is not a doj case, but a step back and trump today in new york, i think what people are seeing is this constant aggressive throwing of the book at, say, donald trump, republican allies, etc., and they are not seeing that aggressiveness applied to people on the left or similarly situated defendants and i think people are wanting to know, they are crying for what is the truth here. do i believe donald trump or believe the justice system and

how can i find that out. >> john: he can say that, it doesn't mean people are going to believe him, particularly when you look at as you said donald trump getting the book thrown at him every time he turns around and hunter biden, sweetheart plea deal gave him a diversion on a gun charge, easily proveable five years ago, and then misdemeanor slap on the wrist for tax violations, which were easily proveable years ago. >> the way to cut through all this, it's a reasonable and real question on people's minds, how do i know who to believe, right. and i think the way you do that in the system of justice is to look at enforcement of law and the punishment. i think punishment actually says a lot more about a society and one's heart than the laws themselves, because enforcement and punishment require discretion, and that's discretion on the part of the prosecutors bringing the case and charging the case, and the judges implementing sentencing. donald trump for example, in say the new york case, and separate

from what the doj discussion we were just having, how common is it for real estate developers and people in business and that business to engage in the behavior that donald trump has been accused of and found guilty of. and what are the consequences, is it normal for a family, a family business to effectually be banned from doing business in a state when they engage in the behavior. what are the kinds of cases similar that have been brought before. how common for an a.g. to campaign on getting a sitting president and businesses if she were to be elected. and research, we are coming up short, it's unusual. it shouldn't just be a fox news inquiry or question, it's what everybody should be asking. it provides context and people the tools they need to discern for themselves what is true, look at the actions, punishment and the implementation. >> jacqui: how can your average voter, i guess, understand all of that. a lot of nuisance and detail

here, and 30,000 foot view, after the 2020 election the former president refusing to concede he lost, claiming fraud, claiming election interference, you hear those same claims from the president today, for instance in new york in a civil case saying it's brought for political reasons. do these cases that now he is fighting tally guess word, election interference, does that, if anyone was skeptical back then and now seeing it, does this help trump in a way? >> so, i think the reason, again 30,000 foot level looking back the last couple of years for so much of the chaos and the confusion is because bad behavior of the former president in various settings has also exposed bad behavior of the justice system and so what i think people are constantly grappling with, whether they love trump or hate trump, say it doesn't feel fair or right but i don't know who to believe and what i'm saying originally, to

look at how it's enforced and punished. you can't divorce the spirit from the letter of the law and the spirit is what is fair and the let ser on the books but you have to have both to have actual justice. >> john: expecting the trump trial to begin again after the lunch break, very soon if it hasn't already. kerri, great to talk to you. experts after expert has warned cells phones and kids do not always mix. now schools are taking a step to crack down on teen smartphone addiction. not just here in the united states. >> jacqui: millions of americans get notice it is time to start repaying student loans. could it ripple through the economy? what's happening and who is affected, coming up next.

a school day without a cell phone? that test is coming to households all across england where the education secretary is pushing new rules to ban kids from using their phones in school even at recess. alex hogan has more from london for us. how is this going over over there, alex? >> hi, jacqui. the government here says already about 95% of schools in england have restrictions on cell phone use during class but this will ban them entirely during class at recess and even during class or lunch break. what we are seeing, according to the education secretary gillian keegan, announced measures today at the conservative party conference. >> one of the biggest issues facing children and teachers is grappling with the impact of smartphones in our schools. the distraction, the disruption, the bullying. >> there is no set date when the ban would take effect, but

critics are arguing it's not necessary, that this ban will not get to the root of childhood distraction and bad behavior, and also say that it's simply not feasible to ban their use but there have been some countries that have put this into action, like france and china, and the netherlands is set to do the exact same thing in just a few months at the beginning of 2024. jacqui. >> jacqui: alex hogan in london, thanks so much, alex. >> john: millions of americans on the hook to restart student loan payments, the first time in three years. as of yesterday, october 1st. and monthly payments are averaging hundreds of dollars, potentially busting people's budgets. joining me now from the big money show on fox business, brian and jackie. estimated involves some 28 million people and goldman sachs says this could take as much as $70 billion of disposable income off the table. half a percent of gdp.

so, we have a double-edged swosword here. people saying oh, goodness, i have the hundreds of dollars in payments, and the economy could suffer as a result. >> absolutely, some estimate as high as $100 billion, a sense of what pausing these payments has done to the economy. where did that income all go, it went out and it got spent and it contributed to inflation. so i think there's a good reality check here to a certain degree, which is the government is not going to bail you out or pay off your student loans, time to get back on a budget. you have to do it yourself. the other side of that to your point is the fact the economy will suffer because we are talking about a lot of money here that was on the table before and won't be. that is, if these kids don't sit back and say you know what, i'm just not going to pay them and see what happens. maybe the government will step in. president biden promised me that he'd take care of this. >> john: so brian, if you were a student or, not a student

anymore but a recently graduated student and suddenly you have hundreds of dollars of your budget that now has to be dedicated to student loans and you have not accounted for that, what do you do? >> well, how about number one, you learn the lesson when you have debt, you should account for it. if you think why we are in this problem, why we are facing this cliff, it's because you have a president for two and a half years that said i'm going to try to make it so you don't have to pay your debt. and people took him at his word and they didn't save and didn't put money aside to pay these bills. so, look, i actually think one of the most important parts of this whole fiasco is culturally we learn the lesson. if you take on debt, you pay debt. if you are in the situation you didn't put money away, well, now comes the really important task of adjusting your budget, making some sacrifices, maybe taking another job or longer hours that pay it. but all of those things are good, john, if this is the lesson we have to learn financially as a nation, better

to learn it now than in a harder way down the road. >> john: so at the same time all of this is going on, people are feeling the sting from the economy that has not fully recovered yet, or at least they are not feeling it in their pocket book and democrats, jacqui, are becoming worried that bidenomics will come back to bite him. one said in politico, i've never understood why you would brand an economy in your name when the economy hasn't fully recovered yet. good point. >> it's a good one. look, i think people have suffered for the last two and a half years, john, and i think they have suffered enough it's going to impact how they vote in this election cycle. at the end of the day, you ask that question, am i better off now than before, and for most people the answer is no and they also realize, if you are the one paying your mortgage, if you are paying your student loans, if you are the one trying to do the right thing, you've taken on the burden of all the people out there who were not doing the right thing, and that's really frustrating, too, and you are saying why are my prices up, i'm

not able to save as much as i was hoping to this year because i'm paying for everybody else out there that's being irresponsible. a piece in the wall street journal, people feel you only live once and better spend it now and never going to own a home because rates are so high, what's the point in saving, doing the right thing, i'm going to put it on the credit card and worry about it later. these are the things that are kitchen table issue the, election issues. >> john: and you have joe biden saying hey, the economy is great, everybody should feel great. listen to what james galbraith said, whatever stories americans are told about the strength of the economy under president joe biden, they are not going to be persuaded to look past the issue of their own living standards. and biden doesn't seem to get that message. >> he thinks it's a story, he thinks the economy is a narrative, like it's p.r. spin. the economy of any issue is a thing you taste, you touch, you

smell, it's life that you live. people know their own debt situation, they know their credit card balances. to try to tell them otherwise is complete folly and out of touch where america is. and that's the lesson of bidenomics, out of touch economic plan. >> john: it's the big money show, brian brenberg, and jackie deangelis. see you soon. >> jacqui: new jersey senator bob menendez and hunter biden are both expected back in federal court. could their dual cases be getting different treatment by the justice department. plus this. >> i don't know why this has gotten so much attention. i was in a rush to go vote, man. >> john: squad man bowman says he doesn't understand why pulling the fire alarm in the capitol complex is a big deal. could he face criminal charges? professor jonathan turley on deck to discuss both of those topics coming up next. american infrastructure,

>> would president biden ever trying try to get out of a meeting by pulling a fire alarm? >> are you talking about something specifically? >> democratic member of congress pulled a fire alarm around a series of votes, no fire. is that appropriate? >> what i can tell you is i'm not talking -- spoken to the president about this. and so just not going -- not going to comment. >> john: the white house refusing to comment on new york congressman jamal bowman caught in a bizarre scandal, pulling a fire alarm on capitol hill as democrats were attempting to stall a vote on a bill to avert a government shutdown, so, was it a mistake as the congressman insists, or was it intentional?

fox team coverage now, jonathan turley moments away whether there is possible criminal behavior, but first chad pergram live on capitol hill. the alarm is of a fixed volume but the fallout was awfully loud from this. >> it's all pretty loud and one witness described it to fox as louder than acdc or kiss in the 1970s. bowman contends he was confused and attempted to exit the canon house office building, questioned by u.s. capitol police after the alarm triggered an evacuation. >> i don't know why this has gotten so much attention, i was in a rush to go vote, man. >> are you afraid of repercussions from leadership or legally? >> i'll take responsibility for what i did, you know. like i say, i was in a rush to go vote and you know, investigation will sort everything else out. >> bowman is a former school teacher and principal, why gop

members think he should know better. there was a resolution to expell her empire state colleague, unlikely to succeed. the house has only expelled five members in history. house kicked out three in the 19th century because they sided with a the confederacy. now, the gop does not buy the explanations by bowman. kevin mccarthy wants an ethics investigation. and they say it should be another member first, george santos. it's unclear if bowman could face charges. back to you, john. >> john: chad pergram, thank you. jacqui. >> jacqui: jonathan turley, george washington university law professor and fox news contributor, could jamal bowman end up facing charges, that is the question we have in our minds today, jonathan. what do you say? >> yes, well, i hate to be an alarmist, but that is the role that congressman bowman has laid

out for himself. i mean, he did in fact commit an act that is at least a misdemeanor under d.c. law. it can be treated as a felony if you believe he intentionally tried to disrupt the congressional proceedings. i think that's unlikely. but most certainly can be charged as a misdemeanor. a criminal misdemeanor. does that mean that it's grounds for expulsion, i don't think so. i mean, i think people have to be very careful before they engage in the sort of expulsion compulsion. if you start to do this, you are going to find a lot of folks are pushing for the expulsion of others. the fact that over hundreds of years we have only expelled five members should tell you something. they always have that power, but i think both sides recognize that down this road lies madness. if we start to expell members, it's going to become an insatiable appetite. >> jacqui: with the nuance we have not seen the video, capitol

police circulated a photo, but for all we know he is bumbling around trying to open the door, won't know until we see it, but comparisons made between what happened with him on saturday impeding the government business of congress and what happened on january 6th. are those fair comparisons to make, in your view? >> i don't think that factually -- that you could compare this to a riot that stopped a constitutional process of certification. now, if it's merely a technical comparison, if he intended to disrupt the proceedings, sure, you can -- you can make that comparison. but i don't think it warrants expulsion. i think mature minds have to step back and say it warrants some type of response, some penalty. but expulsion is the nuclear option. >> jacqui: and who would be bringing the charge, jonathan? d.c. police? >> d.c. police would refer it to

the u.s. attorney's office in washington. >> jacqui: ok, thank you. we are out of time. appreciate it. thank you. appreciate it. >> john: new york professor who went viral for threatening a "new york post" reporter with a machete is back in court this hour. and she already has a new job. we'll fill you in coming up next. but what happens when you need affordable health care? christian health care ministries could save you up to 40% today. as a member, you can choose your provider without network restrictions. sign up at your convenience with our anytime enrollment. join a christian community that supports each other's medical expenses, offering peace of mind as you prioritize what's most important. enroll now at your chm dot org the day you get your clearchoice dental implants makes every day... a "let's dig in" day... mm. ...a "chow down" day...

struggling parents, unions, waiting for our leaders to bring opportunities back to their homes i'm ready to serve. there's two outstanding questions. one, where does she currently reside? according to property records, she owns this home in l.a. with her partner. according to emily's list, she lived in maryland moving there's two years ago. to be a u.s. senator, she needs residency and registering to vote in california is sufficient. the other outstanding question, what does she do next? run for the full six-year term? newsome said that feinstein's appointment would be a short term she would let her run against adam schiff and barbara lee. we'll hopefully find out tomorrow what her intentions are once she's confirmed for the senate. back to you. >> john: occupying the office

would get her a leg up in next year's election. thanks, william. >> fox news alert. we're keeping an eye on the civil trial in new york city involving former president trump. it's possible we may get another break soon and the former president may speak again to reporters. so if that happens, we'll bring it to you live. stay with us. with the freestyle libre 2 system know your glucose level and where it's headed without fingersticks. manage your diabetes with more confidence and lower your a1c. it's covered by medicare for those who qualify. ask your doctor about the freestyle libre 2 system. this is spring semester at fairfield-suisun unified. they switched to google tools for education because there's never been a reported ransomware attack on a chromebook. now they're focused on learning knowing that their data is secure.
