11:00 am
♪ >> topping off the new hour, a live look at washington, where it is a day off for federal workers, but not for those looking to protest the trump administration's attempt to reshape ferment and cut costs. these protests taking place near the capital reflecting pool, and
11:01 am
they say they are standing up. i don't know -- against cutting costs. this is the big question right now and when we keep putting to our guests. why is it that there are so many democrats and people who have decided to protest cost-cutting efforts by this administration? welcome back, as "america reports," the second hour. i'm sandra smith in new york. i guess it is the approach by which they are going, they are trying to take apart, but we will see where they're going with this. steven miller just tried to provide more clarification to us just a few moments ago. >> john: these protesters are calling it tyranny and fascism, but to a lot of other people, it's saving taxpayer money peter jon jon roberts in washington as we get into our number two on "america reports." is not week 5 of the trump administration, and the theme is emerging, as the president is revving of his engines to -- reshape bureaucracy. legal challenges across the nation pick one of the president's top advisors telling us in the last hour that the
11:02 am
effort to save taxpayer money will go on unabated. >> there is no way to know until doge gains full access exactly how much money we are talking about, but over a 10-year normal budget window, you could be talking about saving over $1 trillion. >> tierney and fascism: saving $1 trillion. coverage kicks off now. alexandria hoff with the latest on one of those legal cases, and jonathan turley on deck with legal analysis. >> but first, peter doocy live from the white house. peter, how is president trump pushing back on these hurdles? how is -- the slowing of his overall agenda that was moving at mach speed? >> he is pushing back by pushing forward. president trump and his team seem to be well aware three weeks and that there is nothing democrats can do to stop this cost-cutting effort. they can really only slow it down. >> the president has authority but also has to follow the law. this is once congress has appropriate dollars for a
11:03 am
particular purpose, the president is not allowed to say "i don't like that. i will spend this money but not that money." the president needs to follow the law. >> counterpoint, the president writes on truth social, "he who saves his country does not violate any law," and president trump has the backing of key republicans. after firing inspectors general at various federal agencies. because, republicans are arguing that initial evidence suggests that there was a lot of waste, fraud, and abuse happening during their time, allegedly looking for waste, fraud, and abuse. >> am going to continue to support the efforts to have inspector generals there that do the work that's needed, not protecting -- what's happening within some of these agencies. when you look at this massive amount of government spending that's going on, the waste and fraud and abuse, this has happened with those inspector general's in place. >> white house officials tell us that president trump is going to be working for mar-a-lago later on today.
11:04 am
not around to see the big anti-doge protest happening on capitol hill. white house officials are telling us that engineers will soon have access to -- integrated data retrieval. telling us in the white house that they need to get in there to address possible concerns about fraud at the irs. >> peter doocy reporting live from the white house. >> and it won't be the last broadcast against cutting waste, fraud, and abuse. the president will have plenty of opportunity is to see it in the future. obama appointed the federal judge, rapping at the hearing to bar doge access for 14 here is. the request for this comes from 14 states seeking a temporary restraining order against doge. the judge says she will make her decision within 24 hours. alexandria hoff with the details. where do things stand,
11:05 am
president trump's fight -- sorry, it's a holiday -- waste, fraud, and abuse. >> where it stands right now, really a temporary stance. district judge as you mentioned, she has issued her opinion today. it's really about what she didn't do. she declined issuing an order that would halt accessing federal data. -- denied access for 14 days, said she would issue a ruling on the request of the temporary restraining order within 24 hours, but she did express skepticism on the state's argument, noting that imminent harm would be closer -- a building being demolished for something that cannot be undone. celebrated another temporary victory this weekend, doge, with
11:06 am
u.s. district judge john bates denying a temporary restraining order to block access to the records of three federal agencies, those being the department of labor, health and human services, and the consumer financial protection bureau. the judge acknowledged privacy concerns -- worker unions that brought the lawsuit on, but ultimately decided that doge likely qualifies as a federal agency, and has the authority to access federal records. they have been asked to file a preliminary briefing on the junction by february 18th that is similar to a temporary restraining order with less urgency. >> not seeming to buy their arguments of imminent harm. >> they are in the theory of -- money being saved, which is a lot of people.
11:07 am
that is the opposite of rubber bar. alex, thanks. sandra? >> let's bring in fox news contributor and constitutional law professor jonathan turley. couldn't wait to talk to you today. good to have you on to ask you where you think this is all going next. this seems to be the moment for doge. how will it go, legally? >> i love the fact that one of these arguments occurred on presidents' day. it's a reminder that we actually do have a president, someone who is in charge of the executive branch. you have states and judges, it's a few that seem to have forgotten that. you are beginning to see judges come to a more sober realization. i have been mystified by many of these challenges, in my view, the president has this authority and they can see the records. it is a bizarre type of argument, sort of the bernie madoff approach to government efficiency. you can go ahead and reform, but don't look at the books.
11:08 am
they obviously need to look at the receipts. they need to look at where the money has gone in order to make these judgments. looking to prevent that -- likely to be reversed. not exactly supportive of president trump. they thought this would be a slam-dunk, but even this judge said "i don't understand. where's my authority here? where is the imminent harm?" >> it is incredibly telling the way the judge responded. hears the words of the judge, the lawsuits from the 14 states, challenging elon musk and doge -- saying the building will be demolished and there will be something that can't be undone. "the things i'm hearing are serious and troubling indeed, but you are saying these are things that we are hearing. i am not seeing it so far -- we are hearing." i'm not seeing it so far.
11:09 am
>> what she is seeing and what we are all seeing is what a president does when they come into office. it's true that president trump is being more aggressive. most people run for this office about shrinking government and then forget once they become the government. that's not the case here. he got someone who is famous for downsizing. he did that at x. they are proceeding along those lines. what's curious about the protest of many of these members are a lot of the voices that were the same ones in the name of democracy that wanted to prevent voters from being able to vote for donald trump who ultimately will make both houses, a majority of votes. now, in the name of democracy, they are arguing that they should be able to slow down, s --'s timing, or prevent some f the things he ran on? he is carrying out campaign pledges. he wants to shrink government, wants to find fraud. to do that, he needs to look at the books. i find any real effort to prevent that likely to be
11:10 am
reversed on appeal. >> i saw jen psaki over the weekend, the former press secretary to president joe biden, was cautioning her fellow democrats on this constitutional crisis they keep shouting from -- and she is saying "let's be careful on that." is there anything you are saying as far as the actions on the part of doge and its leaders that would raise red flags? >> i have always been critical of these claims of a constitutional crisis. we have the oldest most stable constitutional system in the history of the world. it borders on defamation. this is a constitution that was designed to last by james madison. it's done so. it's gone through periods able to reduce other countries to a fine pumice and it has survived. we are not in a constitutional crisis. has president trump taken steps i've disagreed with? shirt, and i have criticized them when that's happened, but this is a president who come in
11:11 am
my view, is acting well within his article 2 authority. >> jonathan turley, thank you so much. never disappoints. as we continue to look alive at washington, protests continue there, as people take the day off, federal workers, to protest what they are seeing come out of this administration. >> what is it that they are protesting? that's the question. >> i think that's a really important question. i think pulling up the actual action network.org posting, we have anti-doge protests. to be clear, they are calling on activists across the country to join. they say they are there to resist project 2025 and fight for human rights, equality, and justice. they are saying now is the time to take action. in the posting, i don't see anything specific to doge. we know that there are certainly some out there protesting more than just that. >> so far, doge i think has
11:12 am
identified several billion dollars that were being spent in ways that probably weren't in keeping with how taxpayers would want their money to be spent. these folks want to spend presidents' day out there protesting that, i guess that's their prerogative, but i think there's a lot of taxpayers in this country who would say "why are they out there?" i'm still not sure. >> may be, some of them don't realize it either, but many of them do see that they are there to protest. for example, doge and some of the early efforts of this administration. we will keep an eye on it. >> we have a bluebird blue sky greeting them today, but it is a little bit chilly. meantime, deadly floods in kentucky. widespread damage, search and rescue efforts still underway. plus this. >> our mission to finish the mission that god put me on many years ago. i'm going nowhere. >> defiant new york city
11:13 am
mayor adams refusing to resign as pressure mounts for him to step down. >> epa chief lee zeldin hoping to reclaim $20 billion marked by the biden administration. where those funds are currently tied up, and whether they can be clawed back. matt gorman and jonathan caught on that coming up next.
11:14 am
11:15 am
11:16 am
the way i approach work post fatherhood, has really trying to understand the generation
11:17 am
that we're building devices for. here in the comcast family, we're building an integrated in-home wifi solution for millions of families like my own. 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. >> new apa chief lee zeldin joining the fight to cut back on government spending, and now revealing his plans to cut back $20 billion in climate projects earmarked during biden's final days in office. our guests -- will be joining us in moments, but first, fox business' -- the latest from washington. hi, grady.
11:18 am
>> hi, sandra. the current epa -- say that $20 billion in an outside financial institution. epa officials say their goal was to roll it out to claimant organizations in a rush job with reduced oversight, but epa administrator lee zeldin found out about it and says they have to and make that relationship with the bank, terminate the agreements, and gets that money back. >> we are not talking chump change: we are talking billions of your tax dollars. we at the epa and it's at a trump administration have zero tolerance for waste and abuse. we are coming down hard on this. >> zeldin says the money part of the so-called inflation reduction act went to the organizations that you see on your screen, including $5 billion for the coalition for green capital, which according to its website, was going to use that money to establish a national green bank. zeldin has also canceled, i should say, a $50 million grant
11:19 am
for the climate justice alliance for its pro-palestinian position. the head of that organization is blaming the bite administration for not processing the money sooner. it's also lashing out at the trump administration, saying despite claims that this administration will protect clean water and cleaner for the nation, it has attacked basic protections for neglected communities from day one. here is our nc chair michael whatley's response. >> the people screaming the most right now are the people affected by these cuts. these are all people who have been entitled to this money, they have been receiving this money. the fact is that the taxpayers, the voters of america have said no more. >> sandra, we are trying to put this $20 billion into context. if you look at the median income in the united states, $20 billion is equivalent to the annual salaries of nearly half a million americans. those downplaying what this is, they say it's a drop in the
11:20 am
bucket in the federal budget. it's quite a lot of money. sandra. >> and even if it was, every little bit counts. thank you very much. >> let's bring in our panel. perform a given occasions director, and as he mentioned, the executive vice president of targeted victory and former communications director for the national republican congressional committee, was also ten to -- tim scott's former -- advisor. also a lovely guy. >> thank you. [laughter] >> the idea that lee zeldin is trying to collect at $20 billion including this project he tweeted about on x. "i just cancel the $50 million biden-era just a sprint to the climate justice alliance, which believes climate justice travels through a free palestine." is that really what taxpayers want their money spent on? >> no, but this is a distraction and like. there is not $20 billion. he grabs a good headline, they say they're going to to cut $20 billion of waste. they find a few things like that, which they should
11:21 am
absolutely cut that. that's wasteful spending picked at $20 billion goes to research and development. he goes to green energy grants that help us invent, innovates, and create the next generation of energy jobs in this country so that we don't have to have them from china. if we are going to have ai in this country, it takes a lot of energy. if we are going to have crypto in this country, it takes a lot of energy. we are not going to do that off of coal, oil, and natural gas. we are going to have to have green energy. that's what this bank does. that's how the ira was written, and with a trump administration is good at is grabbing a big headline, saying they are getting all the savings, distracting us, and then only getting a little bit, so yes, absolutely, that $50 million program should be cuts, but the $20 billion is not true at all. >> to your point that we need a lot more energy and can't get natural gas and oil -- we could do what britain is doing, and that is refocus on nuclear which does not depend on the wind blowing, the sun shining.
11:22 am
is there 24/7, 365. >> look at germany. they took after nuclear reactors off-line in the file last years and are acid bathing them. they are the reason name it can't meet the security demand that nato, the industrialized and demilitarized, but that is not the point. one of the companies that was not mentioned was this group that spent about $120 trillion of this money. they don't do anything. the only thing they do is advise of the far left groups how to get more taxpayer money. this is a huge part of this. it's egregious what these guys do pick one of the officials caught on video saying they were throwing gold bars at the titanic. >> getting money out the door before the change in that administration. >> what it is is they are wasting tax dollars trying to get spent before next administration can come in. they should claw this back. it's egregious. i'm glad somebody likes to knows what they're doing over there and knows how to claw this back
11:23 am
administratively. >> and one of the big ironies here is that every time trump nixes a green energy initiative, it hits elon musk in the pocketbook. >> and i'm glad that lee zeldin, the appropriate person, is doing this, the actual head of the agency should be the one looking through their budget and saying "no, this is wasteful, this is fraud, this is fraud, this isn't what our administration is looking for." it shouldn't be somebody like elon musk. while i disagree with the $20 billion headline, i'm glad lee zeldin, actual person in charge that has been approved by congress, is the one doing this. i would also point out the ira was in all the above energy bill drafted by my old boss, which will address all of these issues. >> let's talk about this for a second. you say it is more legitimate for lee zeldin to be talking about this than it is for joe -- for doge. this was a newly created agency within the executive department, within the white house.
11:24 am
musk has been hired under a clause that is a legal statute. the people that have been hired to work with him were hired under legal statutes. why can't you have people who are subordinate to the department heads actually looking into this? >> because the democrats don't like elon musk. >> they used to love him. >> they didn't hide the ball. elon musk and trump talked about this throughout the campaign trail. you see visuals like you just saw, where you have the anti-doge protests. that is a contribution to the doge effort, to the white house effort. please do more of that. you are helping us. having bureaucrats protesting random liberal clauses in the mall, couldn't have scripted a better. >> if elon musk was above the board and we had no problem with this -- let him fill out the financial disclosures i had to fill out when i worked up there. let him do everything every other cabinet secretary is doing. let him show his financial
11:25 am
conflicts of interest he has throughout these agencies. name all the people working for him, like every other government employees doing. does a lot of things he's doing that are secretive and behind closed doors. i also want to point out that if we had george soros doing what elon musk is doing, republicans would lose their minds. jim jordan would be calling for investigations every day of the week. >> of george soros used to be a republican, maybe they would. [laughter] good to see you. thank you. >> new york city mayor eric adams defiance, says he will not be going anywhere. republican new york city councilwoman vicki paladino on calls for him to resign. >> plus, thousands of israelis are marking 500 days before calls to bring more hostages home continue.
11:26 am
11:27 am
11:28 am
11:29 am
11:30 am
our senior foreign affairs has upon correspondent is live in israel. >> we were at the scene of a memorial to some of those lost hands -- and some of those hopefully coming back. the developing news, three more israeli hostages are set to be released saturday by hamas. an israeli official conference to cope deceased also released prior to that time. the cabinet meeting tonight -- said to be providing guidance to negotiators in cairo about the phase two transfer the agreement, which could be more hostages released. >> 500 days of horror. hopes, prayers for the future. >> how does it feel?
11:31 am
>> day by day. today, i think we have some h hope. >> we don't care who is in office. bring our friends and families home. kitchen of a political. it should be a goal to bring our friends back. >> two generations of opinions united in one cause. there were protests all around israel today. desperate for those to come to an end mark, all the hostages alive and dead to be freed by hamas. marco rubio -- in saudi arabia. the controversial plan for removing gaza. we have come back from a briefing with senator lindsey
11:32 am
graham, part of a congressional delegation visit. strong words about the fast return for the hostages as well as the end of hamas. a very direct talk about dealing with iran. nearly a bipartisan call to arms. telling me the number one goal for him is to neutralize iran's nuclear weapon program, and as he described it, the military solution is the only thing they understand. >> they are feeling unrest in the middle east, no question about that. now this. >> the most sanctified among us are calling for me to step down. i'm not going to step down: i'm going to step up. i'm going to continue to fight. i'm going nowhere. >> the pressure is mounting for
11:33 am
adams to resign after the justice department ordered corruption charges against him to be dropped. the mayor however is adamant that he's not going to step down. what to bring in vicki paladino, republican city councilwoman. everyone is talking about you. left america to have you here. i know you have a fairly good relationship with the mayor, so tell us what you're hearing and what you want to see happening. >> i want to see it -- just fine. it's not funny at all, actually. they have overstepped. from upstate, the lieutenant governor putting the pressure on. this has been city-wide now. why should he stepped on? give me one good reason. i want to hear it from mouth. why? because kathy hochul says so, that's hearsay so? they are eating their own. what happened with adams will simple: he moved to the middle. now, the radical left in the city cannot have that. that goes against everything that they believe in.
11:34 am
he was never left enough for them, ever. and conversations we've had, i have said often, and i will continue to say today on air, they hated his guts right out of the gate. this was going to happen. >> he was seen at churches over the weekend. this was sunday in queens. a place you know very well. i thought we had more sound from the mayor. he is adamant this isn't the first time -- since, he has been adamant he will not step down. people will look back and say prior to all this as mayor, was he doing a good job then? as a new yorker, to that, you say what? >> i had several very good suggestions right out of the gate, but he would have been shunned by his own party right out of the gate. which was, higher back to new york city workers laid off and fired and forced to retire because they didn't get the
11:35 am
vaccine. come out a hero and put them back to work. right out of the gate you could have done that. when it comes to century city's, century, especially sanctuary city, executive order perhaps could have happened sooner. once again, trying to appease to those who hate you. why are you doing that? now, you've got three lieutenant governor's, deputy mayors, who want to step aside. to them, i say so long, see you later. you know what? if you don't have loyalty in your administration, you don't have anything. >> this administration, the new administration, the white house, is fiercely defending him. this was this morning -- defending mayor adams. >> this man was prosecuted because he was anti-century city policies. he wanted to new york to be
11:36 am
safe, and said "i will protect new york, the job i was given." people are saying "he is prosecuted under charges and gone after." >> i see you nodding in agreement. >> you said this way back when. as soon as he tried to move towards the middle, they came up with these charges against him. most important of all, remember this: they are trying to justify what they are doing. if she wanted to use the power of the pen, she should have gotten rid of brigg right away, could have gotten rid of ag james. and i've got people standing up -- for the safety of new yorkers, and they want him gone? it's so transparent. >> this was pretty remarkable, if you did listen to a lot of what he had to say those churches. he was warmly greeted over the weekend by the two queens churches he visited. at one point, he said "people are dancing on my grave. i've got a mission to finish."
11:37 am
with your ear to the ground as a new yorker, what happens here? where does this go? >> this is a tough road. if -- with cuomo, who has not yet filed to run for mayor. if cuomo comes in and the odds are against him, the result of conversations, a lot of different avenues. there's more than one way to skin a cat, and for me right now, with what cuomo did to the state of new york, while he was governor, let's see how short people's memories are. with trump in office it gives mayor adams, it gives the democrats more than anything a leg to stand on. he wpeal to e democrats that are centrists, and he will appeal to the republicans. most absolutely. >> one of the democratic congress leaders asking for him to resign says "it's never in my
11:38 am
history to suggest people should resign, but this situation is very serious" spirit that democratic leaders calling for him to resign. we will keep following all of this. interesting to veltman's over the good to see you. -- interesting div element's over the weekend. >> san diego is closing its doors because of a lack of business in addition to a lack of funding. how they trump administrations border policies played a part in this. >> border patrol agents reportedly told to take off their body cameras. the national border patrol president paul perez will react, next. narrator: ontario, canada, your third-largest trading partner and number one export destination for 17 states. our economic partnership keeps millions of americans working.

>> a san diego migrant shelter shutting its doors after not receiving migrants since present transit administration. paul perez with that in moments. first, the news from bill melugin live out of los angeles. how many migrants had come to this recently? >> sandra, believe it or not, literally zero. this ngo says not a single migrant has come to the shelter since president trump took office. that shelter is closing down and laying off 115 employees. trump has officially cut off their fema funding. jewish family service san diego has been running a rapid response that a rapid response migrant shelter offering migrants things like care packages, foodl coronation, medical screenings, immigration case management. you name it they offered it. fema records show they have been
11:44 am
allocated $22 million last year, but the ngo says they never received any of that money. jewish family service san diego points the finger at president trump, saying in part "with migrants no longer able to use the application, the shelter has not received new families, individuals released from short-term federal custody. due to recent changes in federal funding and policy, the shelter services will be paused until there is a better understanding of future community needs." the trump white house is reacting, telling fox news "promises made, promises kept. president donald trump ended -- that facilitated the movement of illegal immigrants into our country. what's up his empty -- let's hope these empty shelters are used to take care of americans in need." one san diego county supervisor says the biden administration released over 150,000 illegal aliens to san diego county streets just last year alone. that is republican jim desmond who tells fox he is happy to see the border now effectively closed with no more migrants going into that shelter.
11:45 am
>> i'm glad this problem no longer exists. i'm glad that moving forward, that this is not going to be a drain on the federal government, and maybe the federal government can start giving back to americans as opposed to people who are here, who came across illegally. >> supervisor desmond tells us the number of smuggling boats landing on san diego county shores has also plummeted since trump took office, as the coast guard is now much more proactive in the area. >> bill melugin on that. thank you. >> let's bring in paul perez, the president of the national border patrol council to talk more about this so that migrant shelter in san diego -- it's been closed down. lack of business, lack of funding as well according to them. this is what tom homan told us this morning about how much illegal border crossings have declined in the last three weeks. listen. >> i looked at the numbers. 229 total -- on the border. 229. compare that to 11,000 a day
11:46 am
under biden. started in 1984 and i have never seen that. 229 total in that period. that's a record. >> 229 encounters across the entire southwestern border in a 24-hour period compared to 11,000 under biden, yet biden told us time and time again that there was nothing he could do without congress. >> look, i have been with border patrol since the ins dates back in 1997, so going on 28 years. this is definitely trending to be the most secure border i have ever worked under because of donald trump's policies, and everything he has put in place to secure the border. it's working, and those numbers tell that story. >> do you think this is going to last, or do you think this is an immediate reaction to the new administration coming in? >> the changes he's made with our agents is they are able to be out on patrol. they are able to deter.
11:47 am
they are able to do the job should have been doing for the last four years, but were prevented from doing because of the policies biden put into place that were funding -- you talked about the shelters, the amount of public funding that was going to fund and reimburse them only incentivized people to cross. they facilitated the entry. i'm glad to see the funding dried up and i'm glad to say they will be out of business. that allows us to go out and actively control the border and deter and detect those trying to come in illegally. >> some troubling news popped up in the last couple of days regarding border patrol agents who were on the front lines. it's about the body cameras that they wear. this article from fox news stated the following. ""a directive for border patrol agents to take up the body cameras after a post on but it that the mobile application bla
11:48 am
radar which uses bluetooth to scan for low energy devices such as simone phones, smart watches, speakers, contract body cameras from a distance of 100 euros and can trigger improvised explosive devices. what can -- devices." what can you tell us about this? >> what they have done is talk to the manufacture of a camera, other federal agencies that have expertise in how these things work. i think that they are taking a look and are airing on the side of caution. the body cameras -- from the agents in the field. they even went so far as to go on the line and remove them, pick them up, take them back and house them in the facilities we have where we keep our body cameras. they are taking a look at everything that's been put out in the public, whether it's the ieds or the tracking. i think they will look at that, and if they are problematic, we
11:49 am
