>> the law requires the detention of anyone who is here illegally to get arrested or charged with a crime because her killer had been arrested prior to her killing in georgia. now, her story was the central focus of the president's re-election campaign along with many other angel families. moments ago was laken's mom, alison. >> we also want to thank

president trump for the promises he made to us. he said he would secure our borders and never forget about laken. and he hasn't. he's a man of his word. >> heartbreaking for so many of these families, and i think everyone feels like they know laken riley in one way or another having watched this story. white house senior correspondent jacqui hinrich reporting live from the north lawn. hi. jacqui. >> it was very emotional in the room, as you heard laken's mom tearing up ahead of that bill signing talking about what this piece of legislation means. president trump stealed her for that moment, giving her a pat of support on the back, as she thanked him for championing this legislation. it passed with the support of all house republicans, 48 democrats, all senate republicans, and 12 senate democrats, many were in the room

for this signing including democratic senator john fetterman. the president was talking about how significant this legislation is. it is the first bill of his second term that he's now signed into law. it allows authorities to detain criminal aliens who have been accused of crimes from theft to violent offensives, and set them up for deportation. he also announced that he's going to be directing dhs to prepare an executive order that would expand the detention facility at guatanamo bay to 30,000 beds, so another big initiative that he announced today as he continues to champion legislation to crack down on the problems at the southern board. let's take a listen to what he s said. >> president trump: under the cruel policies of the last administration, rather than being deported as he should have been he was released into the united states, as was millions of other people, many of them very dangerous people. and you see what we're doing.

we're getting them the hell out of here. >> the president was asked a question about government funding, and, you know, an unusual event for him. he said this is not the moment to talk about that really wanted to keep the focus on this issue, with the family of laken riley that 22-year-old georgia nursing student, and said that her life will now save many others. >> thank you very much. so president trump's border czar tom holman joins us later in the hour on the gitmo story and the ice arrests, as they continue to track down across the country. people in the bronx nearby cheering when some of these people were taken out of their neighborhood. they felt a whole lot safer. we'll talk to tom holman coming up and meanwhile, a big day on capitol hill for robert f. kennedy jr. trump's controversial pick to

lead the department of health and human services. this is a massive government agency, accounts for an estimated 20%, one-fifth of all federal spending falls under hhs. it has a budget close to two trillion dollars, and employs roughly 80,000 people that he would oversee at this agency. here is robert f. kennedy jr. on why he wants to lead. >> over 70% of children and 1/3 of youth are overweight or obese. cancer is rising by 1% to 3% per year. the united states has worse health than any other developed nation but we spent more on health, in some cases, tripled, no wonder america has trouble competing with countries that

pay 1/3 of what we do for health and have better outcomes and a healthier work force. >> we'll talk about that, and those are some really stunning statistics about how far we've fallen behind in health in the united states. and in many ways that was the smoothest part of the day that we saw so far. then the questioning began. here's a little slice of that. watch. >> this is a job where it is life and death for the kids that i used to work for in the denver public schools and for families all over this country, is measles deadly, yes or no? >> i support the measles vaccine. i support the polio vaccine. i will do nothing as hhs secretary that makes it difficult or discourages people from taking -- >> are you supportive of this closing, which is militantly anti-vaccine? >> i am supportive of vaccines. if you like a macdonald's cheese

burger, or a diet coke which my boss loves, you should be able to get them. but you should know what the impacts are on your family and on your health. the trump administration has made >> the trump administration made it clear. >> no i am not! >> a "yes" you are! that is exactly what you are doing! >> martha: you get the idea. host of the steve hilton show, both fox news contributor, gentlemen, great to have you here. what was your take away from what you saw there today. >> a couple of things,, it is very clear, you have this extraordinary role reversal where you have the democrats out there, fighting against measures

that are pro-public health, amazing to see that. only i'm on the road a lot these days, the republican party, at the trump bays, whatever term you want to use most, except for the ones that we want to handle with laken riley is that maha agenda. they love bobby kennedy, they wanted this agenda implemented. it is of the heart of the grassroots energy now. the real take away is watching these senators the insufferably pompous! not really asking questions just grandstanding and speechifying, not interested in the answers we see the responses in advance. the real take away is a discredited the senate c3 mark, -- a. >> martha: mark let's play this, something very telling in

the way he freezes this question, watch this... >> will you pledge it you will not fire federal employees who work on food safety, things like salmonella? >> of that is 91,000 employees. >> will you commit not to fire anybody in the health who works to protect americans from cyberattacks in the health care files? >> i will commit not a firing anybody doing their job. >> martha: that reminds me of the opportunity for many federal workers, mark your reaction to that and in general to this hearing. >> anything 10% of the federal workforce takes the biotech nobody would notice the difference in government services. luck if you do not like bobby kennedy and bobby kennedy is a pro-abortion liberal democrat,

is that a lot of controversial things about public health and the democrats did not lay a hand on him today. if you do not like bobby kennedy the first thing you can think is a dr. fauci, the cost in our public health institutions is so collapsed right now that when they go out and they say, bobby kennedy said this and this is controversial, like the settled sciences shutting down our schools, that told us we have to do social distancing, that science is a natural immunities not count? nobody trusts our public health institutions, the biden administration at people like anthony faucher who created bobby kennedy, for him to be the secretary of health and human services regardless how you feel about his answers on some of these questions. >> martha: here is another part of rfk jr. talking about how he sees his role in this new administration, watch.

>> we are attracting a caliber of people to hhs like never before in history, they are entrepreneurs, they are disruptors, on live these democrats are close to me for partisan issues, these to be my friends, agree on the environmental issues. now they are against me because anything that a president trump does, any decision, has to be derided. >> martha: i think he's probably right about that, the democrats, does not really matter if you can hold together the republicans and i guess that i cassidy is one of those on this committee, he will get out of this committee and then go out to the full senate. >> and that is a very good thing. if you look at the way you set this up, correctly pointing out the scale of this department and the impact on our economy. this is not good spending, this

is spending to counteract sickness, and this one really wants to prioritize making america healthy again. surely we can get that through the senate which is supposed to be acting in our interest. >> it is astonishing when you think about those numbers, 20% of federal spending and our outcome for health in this country puts as far below other developed countries in terms of how healthy we are. record obesity, record depression, record autoimmune disease, it is standing what we're spending on health care and this agency, we will see what happens. always great to see you both, thank you gentleman. president trump telling federal workers to quit your job, that is one option, we come back to work five days a week, after this. >> president trump: if people did not come back to the office

they we'll be dismissed. >> martha: sounds pretty clear! total beets, america's best-selling beets brand, is available at walmart. total beets blood pressure support soft chews contain a key ingredient clinically shown to deliver two times better blood pressure support. take control of your health. head to walmart and get total beets blood pressure support soft chews today. force factor ultra berberine is the #1 best-selling berberine supplement at walmart. ultra berberine contains clinically studied ingredients to promote fat loss, improve weight management, and support blood sugar for powerful, effective results. rush to walmart and find force factor ultra berberine.

in the average household, there are dozens of connected devices. connectivity is a big part of my boys' lives. it brings people together in meaningful ways. >> martha: president trump making a bold offer to federal workers that could save as billions, look at these numbers, two at million federal empl employees, getting the option of pay and benefits until september 30th, the end after the fiscal year. they have to make their decision by february 6 and the white house as when they look at these numbers they figure 5-10% of these employees will take this package and will quite,

which will save taxpayers of $100 billion a year. , i know we spend a lot of money but that is still a lot of money. at the federal workforce growing by about 8% over the past two decades now 3 million. president trump on this just moments ago. >> president trump: we do not want them to work from home, most of the time they are not working, your not very productive, and it is unfair to the millions of people in the united states that are working hard, as federal employees you must meet a high standard representing our government and country. >> martha: joining me now form a utah republican congressman, and robert wolf, former economic advisor to president obama, those are fox news contributors. this will save government a lot

of money, but i wanted people to stay home until the end of 2026, is totally fine with that. >> i think on this one president trump is not right, post covid-19 the private sector going back to the office,. >> martha: years later. >> at my issues is, i know it is two federal employees ex-military, 20% as a veteran affairs and 10% is homeland security. the idea we're looking at each sector in a homogenous way, each sector -- >> martha: you do not think that it is trimming that can be done? >> yes, but i think some sectors have to go up and some has to go down, we should look at each lane on its own. veterans affairs are not always saying -- stationed in washington, d.c. >> president trump: most of the people we are talking about have not been going to their federal officers, any years even before covid-19. we may ask these people to prove

they do not have another job during their so-called employment with the united states of america because if they did that would be unlawful, a lot of people are getting paid money but they are working other jobs. >> martha: the older double-dipping issue, jason? >> we pay far too many people too much money, i think a lot of people want to leave. you get a 401(k), get a very rich entitlement benefits on top of that, the best health care in the country, and it is pretty cushy because remember how many people are protected from some of these things? unions, post office, hundreds of thousands of employees there. those numbers do not include the postal service is, it's like 800,000 people. look at the number of people -- >> martha: president trump wanted to privatize that whole thing.

>> i think a lot of people will push back on at this by the deal will not get better, donald trump is giving them eight, nine months. do you think the ideal would get better? and will not. >> martha: robert here's caroline levitt suggesting that people take an eight month vacation. >> if they don't like a guess why, you getting a very generous payout from this administration, paid for the next eight months. doge just put out a tweet that says they can have the long-awaited vacation if they wish for the next eight months. >> martha: don't think they will find a lot of sympathy, they're working 24/7, seven days a week, happy to stay home and collect a government check will not get caroline levitt sympathy that is for sure we won't know question, it has been the energizer bunny, around-the-clock. always say the fed came out today, paused rates, we have a tight labor market and inflation staying sticky. jobs are not that easy.

you're still waiting on more details as to whether or not you will have to pay a fine. this follows two of his coconspirators, two new jersey businessman dentons to seven and eight years in prison and they had to pay over $1.2 million fine. this extraordinary sentencing comes after a jury last july convicted menendez over those 16 federal charges including bribery and acting as a foreign agent on behalf of the government of egypt. menendez was found guilty of selling his influence to the new jersey businessman but also the government of egypt and exchange for the gold bars and hundreds of thousands of dollars in cash found at his home in new jersey. of course who could forget that convertible mercedes-benz as well. prosecutors asked the judge to sentence menendez to at least 15

years in prison and pay over 2 million-dollar fine. they said in court today it was a truly grave breach of the trust placed in menendez, they noted this is the first time that a u.s. senator has ever been convicted of a crime in a leadership position as a u.s. senator, that is chair of the foreign relations committee, also the first time a u.s. senator has ever been convicted of being a foreign agent while they are a public official working on behalf of the people of this country. menendez spoke in court today, on his behalf, and he cried. he cried in front of his son and his daughter, he said he have before you a "jason daman". he said "other than family i have lost everything i care about, every day that i am awake at his punishment" periods lawyers argued in the part of his life he has done more good than bad, they were hoping eight

vogue says? does anybody read this magazine anymore? i am sure it is available online but i just find it so transparent that this writer is picking on her in this way, maybe they have to catch up with where the country is. >> and for an industry that has celebrated melania's contributions i could imagine it could be hurtful to have that industry turned its back but we know the truth, that is a stunning portrait. >> issues says a lot about fashion or modeling anymore, i have other things to do, comforting people in communities that are devastated. very quickly, just irresistible for these people, here's one more, watch those... >> she was probably put in there because according to donald trump she is a ten. you know that is what it is. >> martha: they were talking
