they know where this comes from and why it's happening. this guy even knows that the countries along the way aren't doing anything to stop it. they are not doing anything. but mexico has completely shifted its approach. they are facilitated through again instead of trying to stop them from coming. this particular caravan was theoretically originally waiting to apply for asylum status and as refugees in mexico and they got tired of waiting. so they're coming to the u.s. border to invade our country. this particular caravan. >> ainsley: it's been interesting president biden been in office three years and seen these numbers increase if you look at the numbers. 3.2 million encounters in the last year. 600,000 got aways. those are the ones that we know about, that were caught on camera and those numbers were recorded. >> right. >> ainsley: look at the amount of fentanyl. the terror watch list, how scary is that? 172 encounters. over the course of all the years
4:01 am
they there were only 11. now in the course of a year, 172. how nervous does that make you? >> oh, it makes me very nervous. especially when you listen to, you know, some of your other reporting here just a couple minutes ago, when you look at how the rest of the world in the middle east has become unfriendly to the u.s. well, those particularly unfriendly to the u.s. can walk into the united states, thanks to joe biden. i'm not giving away any state secrets there. that's in the news every day. and they know it. they know it. so, this is a real serious national security failure. it's not a looming problem. it's a past problem that continues to grow. and that's all thanks to joe biden's open borders policies, facilitated by secretary mayorkas. >> ainsley: ken, thank you so much. big job. at the center of renewing america, we need it. good to see you this morning. >> we do.
4:02 am
>> ainsley: second hour of "fox & friends" starts right now. ♪ >> steve: it is 1:00 in the afternoon in israel and a fox news alert. at least 400 americans are currently stuck in gaza right now. the country of egypt is allowing a very small limited number of foreign nationals and people hurt to go through the rafah crossing as you look live. brian? >> brian: meanwhile, fighting rages inside gaza. the idf says dozens of hamas terrorists were killed overnight. and just in the last hour we learned another israeli soldiers was killed in combat. the total is now 18. >> ainsley: here at home anti-semitism is surging across our country as we see anti-israel protests breaking out at college campuses nationwide. lawrence? >> lawrence: good morning, ainsley. we are live from the iconic second avenue deli. this was the same location where a swastika was put about two weeks ago. first, we start with trey yingst
4:03 am
in southern israel. trey, what can you tell us? >> yeah, hey, lawrence, good morning. we continue to follow the updates from the southern front lines here. i can hear an israeli drone overhead and that fighting in behind me. i do want to tell you about that 18th soldier killed this week inside gaza. the israelis confirming they lost yet another one of their own operating inside the strip this week. this was a lieutenant colonel who was actually one of the first responders to the massacre on october 7th. he went on his own into the town where we brought you images from to fight off hamas militants. and he was killed in a gun battle overnight inside gaza. i want to show you the scene behind me. the destruction in the strip is growing. you will see some smoke on the ground there. we have been watching as israeli artillery units pound these fields on the border between israel and gaza. likely an indication there are some tunnel networks there the israelis have had a lot of trouble with the brigades. hamas' military wing popping out of tunnels and firing anti-tank
4:04 am
guided miflts and rpgs at their forces. they have been throwing grenades and engaging those troops in small arms fire. it does come as we learn more about the hostages inside gaza. the israelis say 242 people are currently being held. that number excludes the four that were released and the one soldier that was rescued by israeli troops. amid all of these tragic developments we do have more information on rafah crossing between egypt and gaza. we do understand it's open today. allowing injured palestinians to get out and get medical attention in egyptian hospitals. and also to allow foreign nationals out. i told you about that woman yesterday. the woman from utah who is trapped inside gaza with her young son. she says she is at the crossing right now. and she was able to leave. this is the nine second voice note she just sent me and i'm just going to play it for you here. >> we're still waiting at the egyptian site right now. they took our passports and we're waiting. so they give us our passports
4:05 am
back. >> trey: that's a positive development for this american woman and her young son. they have crossed the gazan side of the crossing. now on the egyptian side being processed. passports being looked at before they are allowed to enter into egypt. guys? >> brian: trey, a couple of things. number one, when they cross i understand that egypt is really concerned. they have the muslim brotherhood there that took over the country. they want to make sure they know what is coming through. but, if they are able just to cross and then move to an airport, and move out, in an organized way i don't think it's that taxing on egypt. the problem is that they sent up a tent city in the area. so what is the holdup? >> yeah. exactly. that's great point. we are looking at two separate issues here. one has to do with the foreign nationals trapped inside gaza, trying to get out. they are not looking to go live in the sinai peninsula. looking to go to cairo and fly home. then you have the issues of
4:06 am
palestinians noncombatants and don't want to be caught amid this war and facing dire conditions. paying the higher price in this conflict. that's a totally separate issue. the egyptians have been very resistant to both. we're still trying to understand why they were so resistant to allowing foreign nationals to cross into egypt. some of it appears to have to do with the aid entering gaza. and we do understand more aid trucks are entering today. so these conversations that are taking place behind the scenes, are real negotiations to allow aid to get into gaza and allow those foreigners to get out. >> steve: right. hey, trey, for the second day in a row, the idf bombed that refugee camp and reportedly they took out another hamas leader. i was just reading the united nations says that could amount to war crimes because they killed and injured hundreds of people according to these stories. and, you know, the information is coming from hamas, obviously. but, explain, if you will when
4:07 am
we think about a refugee camp, we think of tents in the middle of nowhere where there are injured people there but this is a very urban area. it looks like it is, essentially apartment buildings. >> trey: yeah. so it is not a refugee camp as you might see in rural syria where there are tents set up. it is apartment blocks that we are talking about. buildings where people are living. in and hamas puts their tunnel network and command centers underneath those buildings. but we should be very critical of the strikes here. and we are asking questions to the israeli military about how many civilians they knew were there two things can be true at once. the israelis have warned these civilians to leave for the past several weeks. telling them to go south and that this would be an active combat zone. some of those civilians didn't have the means to leave or simply did not leave. the israelis then make a calculation as they have explained over the past 24 hours about the value of the target they are trying to hit. the first target they hit was ibrahim a battalion commander
4:08 am
from hamas. a very high level hamas commander. as a result they killed many palestinian civilians. we have been able to verify that i'm not giving you a number because i haven't been able to verify the specific number. there are real questions that need to be asked of the israeli military about how many civilians they believe were there and who gave permission to conduct that strike. and how they are making the equation because there are noncombatants in all of these areas. we have to continue to ask those questions because the civilian casualty rate inside gaza continues to rise. >> brian: point out and you know better than everybody, is that they don't -- hamas doesn't wear uniforms. they may wear a head band. and there are military age the men all around where that missile strike is. so, maybe their intelligence says that this is hamas. >> trey: the size of the crater and what was targeted allowed the israelis to destroy the command center and kill the hamas leadership there.
4:09 am
but they also absolutely killed civilians in that strike. we can't confirm exactly how many, but civilians died in the strike. we should be very, very clear about that. and the questions that will continue to be asked of the israeli military is how many civilians they knew were there at the time and why they decided to move forward with that strike despite the fact they knew civilians were there. we should also be clear hamas is among the civilian population. these tunnels are created underneath civilian areas. and it creates an incredibly complex situation for the israeli military. because they have to make a decision each and every strike. do we kill civilians in order to get a senior hamas official or do we hold off on that strike? and they make those calculations each and every day. and they have described it to us as a case-by-case basis. they do not have a number of civilians that is considered acceptable. we have posed these questions to them. and they are important questions to ask amid a war that is developing with a lot of moving parts. >> ainsley: thank you so much, trey. the idf released a phone call.
4:10 am
and it's a phone call between hamas commander and the head of a hospital in the gaza strip. and they are talking about how the hospital, the fuel that the hospital needs to save patients is being stolen by hamas and they also talk about the tunnels. they say most of them are hidden in the hospitals at she if a a hospital, for example. they are under ground levels. shefa is not small, a big place that can be used to hide things. you won't strike the hospitals. it is a safe place. then they talk about the fuel. first hamas takes care of their own, cars and jeeps and then distributes them to the people. they refuel from full containers for themselves, lawrence. >> lawrence: i just think it's important to note that israel continues on the gaza strip to notify the people that are there that there is a hot bed for terrorism. and they continue to say if anyone has any information, we will pay you. we'll help you relocate.
4:11 am
let under the circumstances know what's going on there. and they also say leave because we're going to strike. i think the hamas talking point right now is they continue to use civilians as shields. and t when israel defenders themselves you say look, you killed all these civilians, israel is saying look, what are we supposed to do? if we warn the people and tell them to leave. if we tell them this is a hot bed for terrorism, do we continue to allow the general to stay under? do we allow the commander continue slaughter israelis? a choice is being given. >> ainsley: they worry go they don't do anything it's going to happen a second time a third time a fourth time. >> steve: that's what the even said. the reason lawrence is on the second avenue deli on the upper west side of manhattan it was the target of an anti-semitic attack earlier where someone painted a swastika on the wall. let's take you down fairfax, virginia just outside of
4:12 am
washington, d.c. because george migrant caravan university is investigating. a couple of days ago, somebody had put up in the johnson center some pictures of some children who were kidnapped, as you can see by hamas. and so a woman then, is seen taking it down. and the person who is taking the picture says why are you doing that? they go so that i can read it better. and then when asked a little more she goes why are they putting up this kind of propaganda. takes down some more. the person says give me that back the woman folds it up and rinse it up. now the university is investigating that. >> brian: there she is. >> steve: the governor of the great state. >> ainsley: she is ripping it up. look at this. >> governor of the great state of virginia. governor youngkin, that same day, asked colleges for plans to protect jewish and muslim people alike on college campuses. including george mason. >> he issued an order to combat anti-semitism. he says it instructs law
4:13 am
enforcement to increase information exchange and resource coordination on potential anti-semitic acts through a specialized situation room. >> this is the same school that two days after israel attacked was attacked, george mason students for justice and palestine published a statement endorsing hamas. they describe the terrorists as reclaiming land and seizing settlements considered illegal' in violation of international law. held a valley on october 12th and called for the destruction of the state of israel. >> steve: also, somebody who is feeling anti-semitism and, in fact, you see her every night, she is the host of -- the co-host, actually, with ken jennings of jeopardy, she went on social media and talked about how she is afraid to send her kids to school. she is jewish. her family is jewish. she is afraid to send her kids to school. she worries about the day her son will grow up and be big enough to go to college because what will campuses be like? here she is on instagram. she recorded a video talking about her alma mater which, for
4:14 am
your information, is aclu in los angeles. >> imagine if there was a massacre of an ethnic group or a religious group, the equivalent of 50,000 americans, and imagine if what happened after that was that all over the world there were marches of tens of thousands of people calling for further massacre? it's unimaginable and that's what it feels like right now as a jewish person. no matter if you know the history of the establishment of the state of israel. no matter if you know the history of the jewish experience for thousands of years, including the history before islam, there has not been an experience in my lifetime that has prepared me for this. >> brian: a lot of people feel
4:15 am
the same way. no one can believe this is happening. more people astonishment with the magnitude of the attack. got it. october 7th. horrified. but more people are saying this has just got to stop. i see nine campus -- nine presidents inside israel are combining together to flood a message to stop anti-semitism and get the israeli point of view out. they are being overwhelmed by anti-israeli, anti-jewish, anti-semitic propaganda right now. they are actually making progress wiping out hamas. but they are losing the propaganda war. and they might have lost this generation of college students, lawrence. >> lawrence: yeah, brian. i think it's such a good point. i have had so many -- whether it's colleagues, folks online reach out to me saying how can i track all of this? seems like we are seeing all of this propaganda. i used to run campus reform. >> on the site if you type in
4:16 am
the university or college, you can track what these professors are saying. you can track what is happening on these college campuses. and i think it's so resourceful because right now parents are making the critical decision, as it -- am i going to write another check for the next semester, any university promoting the hamas talking points or professor is not fired or condemned. if they're allowing these pro-hamas and i think it's important, to have a distinguished view on this. one thing to say hey, i want to stand with the palestinian people. i get that about there is a right to do it. but it's another thing to express terrorist talking points here in the u.s.a. but you don't all want to hear from me. you want to hear from the college students that have to experience this every single day. this young man right here is from nyu. i just got to ask you, you are a jewish student. what's life like as a jewish
4:17 am
student on college campus? >> yeah. so i'm a visually jewish student. i wear a kifa, ever since october 7th military retaliation it's been terrifying to continue, you know, being a visually jewish student on campus. i have never taken my kefa off my entire life. i grew up in new york. midwest. area where no jews exist for the first time in new york city. i have started to, you know, be in situations where i haven't been wearing my yam mika. that's shocking to me. support, university, or the professors i wear hill low on campus and thank god nyu a great support system. largely the biggest issue like you said is professors and faculty that are supporting hamas talking points, supporting
4:18 am
terrorism and like you pointed out there is a huge difference between being pro-palestinian and and defending or celebrating the attacks on october 7th obstacle people need to realize that if they truly have palestinian people in line stand up against hamas. >> such a good point. you graduated from nyu are you surprised by your university right now. >> shocked. it's bizarre, looking at the twilight zones of the twilight zone it. doesn't make sense to me i love new york city and this country imagine after 9/11 people came out and said no, let's try to understand al-qaeda and pro-al-qaeda. why would you do that? it just doesn't make sense to me hang on campus and students feel this way. >> thank you so much. i want you to talk to one more person. i think it's important.
4:19 am
we talked about at the beginning of the show the swastika that was on this building saw a swastika on the school, ma'am, can you tell me about that. >> i spend some time putting posters up and across the street we saw three swat particular can as put into the side where the scaffolding is. and i covered them up with but it's -- i guess the word would be intimidating and sad. because this community has a lot of holocaust survivors. some so alive though we have lost many. and i my heart goes out to people who have experienced that and very sad to see. next guest here later on in the show. she has been fighting against anti-semitism for a while.
4:20 am
some of the stuff that she has been able to discover in the last few weeks, you are gonna want to hear. i will send it back to you guys in new york. >> steve: great interview, lawrence. just to think on the streets of new york city, swat particular can as in november of 2023. >> ainsley: i never ever would have expected that, especially in new york city. we just have such a big jewish community here. >> brian: all right. carley shimkus you are upstairs poise with the news. >> carley: from one horrific tragedy to another guys, the city of lewiston maine is celebrating the lives of the 18 people killed in last week's shooting. community members gathered at local high school football game to honor first responders and remember the victims. you see on your screen right there james taylor was in attendance. he also performed the national anthem. the president and first lady will be visiting lewiston tomorrow. jury deliberations in the fraud trial of disgraced ftx co-founder sam bankman-fried are expected to begin today. the trial will resume later this

4:30 am
it is possible to eliminate the rule of hamas and at the same time be open to pleadiating future deals for the release of hostages. better yet how about rescuing them? we got one already. so, do you think that to a degree hamas did not predict the ferocity of the response they are getting while you guys are pushing back on the outcry to pause and cease-fire? do you think it is surprising them? >> absolutely. i think they are stunned by the amount of force that we are actually putting into the battle. they are stunned by the tactics that we are using and overwhelmed by the nature of our attack and the ferocity. they didn't plan it. they didn't anticipate that. it wasn't part of their overall game. and so right now, they are

p.m., house members are expected to hit the floor and debate the g.o.p.-israel aid package a bill biden has promised to veto. today hypocrisy on the world stage. iran's ambassador to the u.n. is set to chair the human rights forum, despite its countless human rights violations. that's all live today on fox. now skyrocketing anti-semitism putting jews across our country on edge and according to fbi director christopher wray, the group makes up 60% of all religious based hate crimes. so what do jewish americans think? lawrence jones is talking with us live at the iconic second avenue deli. hey, lawrence. >> lawrence: hey there, my friend. let's start why this is happening and how long this has been happening. you guys noelly she has been on our. enjoy to combat anti-semitism
4:39 am
president trump passed anti-semitism back in 2017. we see the biden administration actually enforce the order. giving jewish students title 6 protection for the first time in american history. the biden administration is really not stepping up to the plate and we have seen a spike in anti-semitic attacks and incidents since the october 7th hamas massacre of 1400 jews in israel. there has been a 400 percent spike in anti-semitism in this country. and so the biden administration needs to do more. lawrence, i have to also tell you that right now, speaker johnson is going to be putting forth a $14 billion aid package to support israel. israel desperately needs the support. i hope every member of congress is going to step up to the plate and make sure is that israel gets the support. >> lawrence: it's the right thing to do. thank you so much, ellie. a lot of questions i have been getting with folks what is happening on the college campuses. new family members here. we had a great conversation earlier. i want to give you guys some insight.
4:40 am
what is happening. why are you so surprised? >> honestly i feel like i'm reading or living the first chapter of my grandfather's holocaust survival story. his friends abandoned him. i'm starting to feel all of our kids and our schools are terrified. their friends don't care about the hostages. and there is a polarization that's just been permeating into their everyday. they don't feel safe. they can't go to class without being worried that someone is going to attack them on their way to class. and intellectual laziness that has caused these kids to rely on tick diamond and silk algorithm. i think that's the scariest thing. >> lawrence: so important. one thing i hear all the time is that this did not happen.
4:41 am
when i talk to these kids they say the videos are propaganda. >> i don't know how people could say that in this day and age. the media is throughout the country. it's throughout the world. you see what is going on. i don't know how people can have that reality. >> lawrence: yeah. you are a young person. what do you think is causing all of this support of hamas? >> a lack of empathy. a disinterest in understanding what is really going on. >> lawrence: so true. ma'am, it's not just the students though, it's the college professors. >> again, i don't know that it's students -- we need to all be educated in and the hostages ned to come home. it's a really, really simple discussion. there are babies that are sitting as hostages in a world i can't understand how we can possibly allow that to exist. no matter what side you sit on. the babies need to be freed.
4:42 am
the hostages need to be freed and brought home. >> lawrence: ma'am, the fbi director said 60% of the hate crimes are targeted toward jews. >> it's horrific, it's been happening for centuries and centuries people hate the jews. it's very sad. >> lawrence: what do you want from our elected leaders? what do you want them to do right now? >> bring the hostages home. i want conversations that revolve around empathy, around care for all of us and keep this -- bring the hostages home, honestly, that's it. >> lawrence: so true. as you can see, the jewish community is so loving. if i had my family members targeted on the day-to-day basis, i don't know if i would be so peaceful. they are still loving. they don't blame all palestinians. but they want hamas held accountable and they want our elected leaders to start doing
4:43 am
something back here at home. i will send it back to you guys in new york. >> ainsley: stories are horrific. hamas invaded them while they were sleeping in their beds or eating dinner with their families or breakfast with their families or whatever time it was. they were just innocent civilians that were completely brutalized and now they are fighting back. thank you so much, lawrence. we're going to check back in with you throughout the morning. we have a live look at capitol hill where today house members are expected to take up the g.o.p.'s israel aid package. plus, 23 house republicans join democrats blocking an effort to censure squad member rashida tlaib. house republican conference chair elise stefanik is going to join us, next. ♪

are right here, where the house is set to vote on an aid package for israel. congress is -- republicans in congress, i should say, proposing cutting irs funding to send $14 billion cut to israel without any ties to gaza or ukraine. no money for either of those. which is at odds with the president's $106 billion spending proposal house republican conference chairwoman elise stefanik sits on the house armed services committee and she joins us now chairwoman good morning few. joe biden said if that's what kind up on my desk i will veto it: control the senate says this is a joke. >> shame on joe biden and shame on chuck schumer. house republicans understand how important it is to stand strongly with israel. it is the white house and the democrat senate that are politicizing this the -- that are politicizing this issue.
4:50 am
house republicans are committing to passing this $14 billion aid package to make sure that we're supporting iron dome and getting the resources we need to israel at a time of their greatest need. at a time when they say a terrorist attack from hamas backed by iran. full stop. so the fact that this white house is trying to politicize this issue, house republicans will stand like a rock as our newly elected speaker mike johnson said and we will get this done. >> steve: what about funding to ukraine? >> that's not going to be tied into this bill. we think that is a very politicized issue. the white house has not answered questions as to how those dollars are going to be spent. what is the ultimate goal when it comes to ukraine. the white house has not answered those questions. when it comes to israel though, our most precious ally in the middle east, we need to make sure that we are standing strongly. and that people are going to have to make a decision and boy is it going to expose democrats who vote no on this very straightforward package to support israel. >> steve: congresswoman, you know, on this program and i know

personally, you attended harvard and i know you were horrified by some of the anti-anti-semitism coming out of that very famous college up in cambridge it? >> is inexcusable. hard university has totally failed in terms of condemning the significant lies of anti-semitism. i led with colleagues in the house also harvard graduates ted cruz and kevin kylie stronging condemning president of harvard handling of this. she put a task force in place. the students should be expelled who are not only going after jewish students but also saying these heinous anti-semitic comments. shame on harvard and all of these institutions tore to the taking a strong stance on this. we will put on the floor a resolution condemning anti-semitism on college campuses. another area where republicans will lead. >> steve: all right, you got a lot going on. congresswoman elise stefanik, thank you for joining us from d.c. >> thank you, steve.

[laughter] my mental health was much better. but i struggled with uncontrollable movements called td, tardive dyskinesia.
4:55 am
td can be caused by some mental health meds. and it's unlikely to improve without treatment. i felt like my movements were in the spotlight. #1-prescribed ingrezza is the only td treatment for adults that's always one pill, once daily. ingrezza 80 mg is proven to reduce td movements in 7 out of 10 people. people taking ingrezza can stay on most mental health meds. ingrezza can cause depression, suicidal thoughts, or actions in patients with huntington's disease. pay close attention to and call your doctor if you become depressed, have sudden changes in mood, behaviors, feelings, or have thoughts of suicide. don't take ingrezza if you're allergic to its ingredients. ingrezza may cause serious side effects, including angioedema, potential heart rhythm problems, and abnormal movements. report fevers, stiff muscles, or problems thinking as these may be life threatening. sleepiness is the most common side effect. it's nice. people focus more on me. ask your doctor about #1 prescribed, once-daily ingrezza. ♪ ingrezza ♪ i hope you all like potatoes... these are fresh from my garden.
