include sudan, venezuela, somali, syria, libya, you name it. you can see an orange list were countries face limited access, and a yellow list giving certain countries 60 days to address their security deficiencies. this ban is expected to be enacted through trump's january 20th exec of order requiring intensified security vetting of foreigners seeking the u.s. nothing is been officially announced by the white house, but it brings to mind trump's first term travel ban from those seven muslim majority countries. it was challenged adult medley upheld by the supreme court. this, as you have trump's effort and birthright citizenship, which is tied up in court, but it just got the support of 18 g.o.p. house members who filed a brief yesterday in the ninth circuit court of appeals. arguments in that case are set to begin in june. bill? >> bill: thanks. lots in it for you, thanks so much in washington, d.c., griff jenkins. thanks.
7:01 am
>> in fact, there was a report issued by the government account ability office last year. during the biden administration, which estimated the federal government front half a million dollars. what we're trying to do is get that number down to a much smaller figure. save money for the taxpayer, stop money being spent on things that are i think very few taxpayers would agree makes sense. >> dana: elon musk pulling back the curtain on doge, exposing the massive level of waste, fraud and abuse he says his team is targeting from every corner of the budget. welcome to a brand-new hour of america's newsroom, on dana prato. >> bill: good morning to you. knew hour. good morning at home. elon musk ramping up the effort to reduce government spending teri larry kudlow the goal is to keep america from going bankrupt. his game plan is to follow the money in those efforts he says are getting results. >> dana: also sparking fierce criticism with democrats,
7:02 am
dennouncing doge his efforts. here's more from washington. >> reporter: morning bill and dana. elon musk's working in the middle criticism is hard cackles atop flooding, but not only is doge not slowing down, musk says they are also looking towards the end. >> how do you pick your next targeted agency or department? >> we are trying to act broadly across all department's. so it's not just one department at a time. >> are you involved in all of them? >> pretty much, yes. try to make government more efficient across-the-board. yes. >> how big is your team? >> a little over 100 at this point. getting to 200. >> you're going to get to 200? >> dana: he refers to the doge team as tech-support, saying they consult with cabinet secretaries and department. that's notable given the report of clashes between secretary of
7:03 am
state marco rubio and transportation secretary sean duffy, and mosque over staff cuts. publicly, rubio and musk are dispelling the notion of a rift in this post on next. rubio thanked doge for helping to cancel 83% of the contracts at usaid. musk responding, good working with you. love that work appearing to take a toll on musk's ability to run his other companies. key says he's doing so with quote great difficulty. shares of tesla are down, prompt in the president to write this message on truth social this morning. the president saying he is buying a brand-new tesla tomorrow morning as a quote show of confidence and support for elon musk. a truly great american. musk says he wants to continue doge's work for another year. as for whether we should eventually see a report on what they've done, musk did not commit to that, saying reports don't mean a thing. back to you. >> dana: thank is much. joining us now is sabrina, former pentagon spokesperson and assistant to president biden. she's here in person for the first time. we also have youth. thank you for being here.
7:04 am
let me play for you jamie raskin, his thoughts about elon musk and doge. >> just the typical old insane presidents who want to become kings. we've got elon musk in the picture. elon musk -- [booing] >> elon musk, he represents a silicon valley billionaire political mafia. >> dana: is that resonating in democratic circles? i talked about last time bernie sanders doing big events and he's getting big crowds. not cutting a lot of attention necessarily. but that's the message going after the rich. >> i think democrats are picking up on this thread with elon musk. i don't think people like the way he is corunning this government. when they elected donald trump, they elected him, they didn't elect elon musk. the way he is unraveling government, they want to make cuts. cuts can be made in government. but they are going to go after
7:05 am
those programs. social security, medicaid, these -- >> dana: they said they aren't going after programs. >> but that's where the money is. that's where we spent the most money is a government. >> dana: they say they aren't going to. >> yet you see republicans opening that door in congress, and looking at these cuts. even though they say they aren't going to, if they want to make real cuts to government spending they have to look at these programs. >> bill: unless they showed the waste, fraud and abuse in those programs. they post on the website, as he said last night, that doge.gov. the other thing, the budget is $850 billion per year. musk's argument is that we are now paying the same level in debt annually, and that cannot continue. >> he's right. look, when you try to cut the federal government's significantly, there's going to be a lot of problems. there's going to be a lot of pain and so forth. we've had a lot of polite efforts before. al gore, president bush. none of them worked.
7:06 am
you see the reaction to the proposed cuts as though there is no waste, fraud or abuse at. the federal government has to stay this size. i expect there to be pain. i support what he is doing. i think the democrats are wrong to die on this hill. they are basically saying you can't cut the federal government. that is a message coming through. >> dana: representative was on yesterday, had a good interview with him. this is what he said on our show yesterday. >> parties go back and forth in american politics. as you know, guy stood up for the boy with cancer. i stood up when the president walked in. that is not where we need to make the argument. we need to make the argument on the economy. that's where the democrats need to focus. what is our economic mission? >> dana: where was that vision? maybe they need it now, but where was it for four years? >> i think we struggled on explaining to the american people what the biden administration was doing when it came to the economy. the reality is, and i pushed back respectfully, and that i
7:07 am
think democrats do agree that there are places we could make cuts. i'm coming out the pentagon, there's places cuts could be made. but you have to do it carefully, you have to do it with a scalpel not the chainsaw approach. i think when it comes to the economy, just going back to what you are asking about pick donald trump came in with the stock market at an all-time high, and right now we are seeing it plummet. this idea of the economic promise, i think you saw growth under the biden administration. i don't know that we messaged effectively on it. but now you are seeing it really dwindle, this economic promise donald trump came in on. again, prices are still high. i'm not seeing low prices go down. >> bill: to that point, what musk would argue and what trump would argue is that we are trying to get the country -- weeding off federal spending. it has gotten way out of control, bill. >> i think the problem with the democrats saying it's a messaging problem. they don't have a messaging problem. people understand what they are for and what they are against. there's a substance problem. they always talk about standing
7:08 am
up for a kid with cancer, hello are they going to vote? with a boat to cut taxes, to deregulate? cut spending? i don't think so. that is the problem. when push comes to shove, they want to hide their real views from the american people. >> dana: sabrina, can i ask you, is their place in the pentagon you think they should look? >> i don't want to go through all the places where i think they should look. i think there are certain departments and areas there could be cuts. i think what we have to look at here is congress appropriates these dollars for certain programs. when those cuts happen at the pentagon, that's actually going to impact jobs in their home districts. talking about defense companies, contractors, we are still manufacturing somewhat old technology because it is a job creator in those districts. if they want to look at cuts, they should start looking there. that is going to create some backlash for republicans.
7:09 am
>> i agree. i think none of the departments should be spared. we should look at all of the cuts. the opposition to elon musk's just irrational. saying he is not accountable, he the most accountable person in washington. he is appointed by the president. in the executive branch, we've worked there, no one in the building is elected except the president and vice president. everyone else is a deputy. elon musk is not some secret bureaucrat making sneaky decisions behind everyone's back. it is all out in the public and he is getting blasted. >> dana: and bragging about it. >> bragging about it and getting blasted for it. that's the way it should be speak i think you bill. sabrina, think you pickle become back. >> nice to see you in person. >> dana: also this. massive immigration boston texas. ice making more than 600 arrests. we have the stunning details for you. >> bill: five a terror suspect in the abigail bombing is now on u.s. soil, waving his miranda rights. what that could mean in this case moving forward.
7:10 am
>> dana: and awaiting the big boat in the house. can republicans that the needle on a bill to avoid a government shutdown. the margin is narrow, but the speaker is confident. >> i'm extremely optimistic that we are going to get this done today. the cr as it is right now is clean. it gives us time to put forward the transformational agenda that 77 million americans gave us a mandate for. did they just hop from a baseball game to a show on max...

electricity, coming to the united states, of instructed circuitry of commerce to add an additional 25% tariff to 50% on all steel, aluminum coming to the u.s. from canada. one of the highest terror thing nations anywhere in the world. this will go into effect tomorrow, he writes. tomorrow morning, march 12th. there's more to it than what i read. it goes on for another couple paragraphs. one of the ministers in ontario, canada yesterday threatened states -- i believe new york, minnesota and michigan. they sell electricity, these three states pick we will crank up the tariffs and everybody living there. this is trump's response to his threat from yesterday. meanwhile, you've got republicans on the hill that have a huge vote later today on this continuing resolution, whether or not to keep the government open. they believe they have the votes, we will see whether or not that happens later today. in addition, the vice president j.d. vance also on the hill. part of the reason he was tabbed was to make sure he is the mediator between the white house
7:17 am
and the capital. he's there as well. kind of like all hands on deck, right? you have to think trump is working the phones like he did a week ago. all of that happening right now. >> dana: also this. the u.s. secret service officially has a new director. home end security secretary kristi gnome swearingen sean curran yesterday as president trump looked on in the oval office. you might remember, current was one of the agents who stood over trump when he was shot last july in butler. the former head of his personal detail, and also the one who deputized dj daniel at the big speech last week. today, bill. >> bill: yes, it was. now this. >> president trump: we shouldn't have tony 1 million people pouring into our country through open borders. many of whom are criminals. very bad criminals, including murderers. thousands of murderers. many killed, far more than one person. they are roaming our streets. tom homan and kristi noem are doing an incredible job and we are getting them out of here. we will get them out. we will get them all out.
7:18 am
>> bill: a major boston houston. on for about seven days, ice operation in texas. here we go. from february 23rd, to march second, about a week, seven days, 656 undocumented aliens total of which 543 were criminal aliens. meeting they had a record. what kind of a record? here we go. in the houston operation there was 140 aggravated felonies, another 34 sex offenses on the record, 38 illegal firearms, 93 guilty of dui. 51 property crimes, 52 illicit narcotics offences. this was what we were told was going to be the target for the trump team. ben ferguson, kostov the verdict with ted cruz, that's a podcast. good morning to you. i want to read to you something from the ice homeland security agent there in charge. we've sent a resounding message to transnational criminal organizations everywhere that the law enforcement community and the texas gulf coast is more united than ever and will not
7:19 am
rest until we've eradicated these criminal elements from the country. been, you reflect on what happened in houston? we should make the point, this could be easier in texas than it could be in like los angeles or chicago or boston. >> sure, because everyone in texas is working together right now instead of working with local cities that are for example sanctuary mind-set, sanctuary cities. you look at what is happening in houston, my hometown right now, i talked to a couple of different i.c.e. agents as well as those that work with the sheriff's department. they believe they can keep up this pace for three to six months. that is how money criminals, violent criminals, there could be in the houston area alone. when you have a border that was this open for this long, this is how many cartel members came in, gang members came in violent criminals. they also pointed out something you just looked at on the board. you notice the dui and the more minor offences are actually not as many as the more violent and
7:20 am
egregious offences. this goes back to what donald trump said. they are sending the worst into this country. he is absolutely right. no doubt of the duis are terrible, and people die when they had people and there's families that lost loved ones because of illegal immigrants duis. but if you look at the numbers across the board, they are saying these are not minor offences, which is what many in the biden administration wanted you to believe. mallorca's one of you to believe. these are hardened criminals. if you imagine it takes that much time to clean up houston, think about where everyone is around the country right now. you said it right, you look at places like new york, you look at places like denver, a look at places like boston. these are cities that are fighting against ice. what is in their communities, and how money criminals are going to dig in there as well when they know that is a safe haven for them? >> bill: want to get to another topic here. they had a nap during the biden years, the app allowed immigrants from four different countries to go ahead and apply
7:21 am
for entry into the country. they have taken that app now and changed the name, they call it the home app now. stephen miller posted this. go home or go to jail. the new home app will give you legal seamless support to book a flight home and avoid the significant financial penalties that come with continued on lawful presence in the u.s. what he's trying to do there is encourage self deportation. do we think this is going to work? >> i think it is going to work when you see certain people that just say, is it worth it for me to live my life looking over my shoulder for the next four years of the trump administration. they are coming after people in this country illegally. this is part of the reason why the president said that message with guantanamo bay, we will send bad people there as well. you got an option. we will be kind of nice to you if you break laws. if you self deport, and we will work with you if you do not do i get ready because we are coming after you with the full force of the u.s. government. will this happen?
7:22 am
i think there's some that will take this path pick we've already seen the numbers in texas drop in some areas where they are basically saying it's not worth it pick i came here, made a bunch of money, i'm going back home. i'm done. i think this is also, again, this goes back to messaging. get out on your own while you still can. because once you are in our custody, it's now that we are in charge and we are not going easy on you. >> bill: last topic. you live in houston. i don't know if jasmine crockett is your congresswoman, she might be. she is from houston. she had this interview on saturday, four days later and it's still getting attention. watcher here. >> continue to say things like the illegals, and that they broke the law coming in. what they are not telling the american people is that it is a civil violation. it is not a criminal violation to enter the country illegally. it is not criminal, a crime. it's not a crime. they want law kiloran enforcement to go out and round up people when they could be looking for
7:23 am
murderers and sexual abusers, as well as robbers. they want them to go and round people up on civil accusations. >> bill: not criminal, not a crime, it is not a crime. quick thought on that? >> number 1 i wouldn't be taking legal advice if i was an illegal immigrant from that congresswoman. number 2, look at her district and who was arrested in her district. there are hardened criminals, illegal immigrants arrested in her district. this goes back to what democrats did the last four years. they said we get to pick and choose what we decide politically is a crime or not a crime. the message she is sending to illegal immigrants here, i can't wait for one of them to quote her in court going hold on there is a congresswoman who said i am not breaking the law, and trustees that. guess what? it ain't going to work. good luck with that. wouldn't be taking legal advice from her. >> bill: ben ferguson, thank you out of texas today. >> dana: speaker johnson is giving some remarks before taking questions. big boat ahead of them. let's listen in. >> on cable news shows to
7:24 am
protest president trump's efforts make government more efficient. now they are planning a vote on a civil bill. they will try to shut the government down. every house democrat, it looks like, that would be a shame if it's true. i hope some of them will have a moment of clarity themselves under the right thing. but it looks like they will try to shut down the government. it is a striking new posture for democrats who have always said, apoplectic about the prospect of government shutdowns. i put a video out about an hour ago on social media. i encourage you to go see that. they have been giorgino need to trust us on this, by katherine clark, one little singer from her. not only is it irresponsible and purposefully misleading, but also a dangerous precedent to threaten a shutdown. this was last year, years past. quote the tragedy here is all the civilian employees, it is the employees who are going to suffer, and quote. aoc, it is not normal to hold 100,000 workers paycheques hostage. it is not normal to shut down
7:25 am
the government when we don't get what we want, unquote. idle think i've ever agreed with her before. shutdown is really in extremist policy designed to appeal to an extremist base and hold the whole country hostage. we agree. they had all of their colleagues need to do the right thing. democrats have been insisting there fighting for federal workers. you are about to see, again on vivid display, very clear the contrast. you will see one team that is working to fund the government and make sure we do the responsible thing i you are going to see another posing to cr because they've exposed the truth. they are not for federal workers or anyone. of the people they said in the past would be harmed, would be by their votes. they are using federal employees as props, their using medicaid benefits and social security checks in this thing. the threat of government shutdown, they are it as some sort of attempt are wrestle power away from the president of the united states. overwhelmingly won the popular vote, the electoral college in every single swing state. is the bottom line pick of
7:26 am
congressional democrats refused to support this clean cr, they will be responsible for every person amiss the paycheque, every flight delay from reduced staffing a tsa, for every negative consequence that comes from shutting down the government. understand they have an important retreat this week. i would love to be a fly on the wall at that party. it comes at a critical time since they don't have a leader, message or platform. i will just say this, if democrat colleagues want to increase their 21% approval rating with the american public, they ought to start by doing the right thing in keeping government open. ethic that would be a great first step. of what to questions. >> reporter: youth continually criticized the democrats. doesn't that imply that you don't have the votes on your side? you would need democratic assistance to keep the government open. >> we will pass the crp? do that on our own. what i'm saying is democrats ought to do the responsible thing, follow their own advice in every previous scenario and
7:27 am
keep government open. i wish it would be a unanimous vote in the house chamber today. that would be a great thing for america. but they won't do it because they are on this lost, wandering in the wilderness. they are cursing this guy this same time. they will vote no, and they will come out and try to pay and lie about it. we are calling on you guys to call them to account. they could tell you the truth about the bill. they didn't read it before they set all that nonsense. asked them that. >> reporter: the president went after one of your own colleagues yesterday, thomas massey, does plan to vote against this picky says he should be private. do you agree with the resident? should he be primary for his vote against this? >> i am in the comfort and protection program, that's what i do. speaker of the house. you know me and my style and the way i do this job. i bless those who persecute me. thomas and i have had disagreements, but i consider
7:28 am
thomas massey a friend. is a thoughtful guy. i guess he will tell he's doing what he thing says right on this. i vehemently disagree with his position. i will leave it at that. >> reporter: you in the past did not vote for cr when you are a rank-and-file member. you have said in the past you are done with short-term crs. by my count, my math might be off, this would be the fifth continuing resolution you are presiding over as speaker of the house. what you say to conservative colleagues who promised that you would start to go through a regular appropriations process? yet again fighting them selves in a position where they have to take a difficult vote on a cr. >> a question. i will rewind and replay the chairman of the house. ducked he and harris said this is a different cr than anything we've seen in our careers in congress. i've been here eight years, is been here longer. it normally is something that is a patchwork to give us more time to try to get to the appropriations process. this is totally different. a yearlong cr, the first i think we've had. i don't know that there is a
7:29 am
precedent or an actual long dress yearlong cr. it solves the problem because it freezes federal spending, it takes care of these immediate priorities that have been articulated here, and allows us to move forward with changing the size and scope of federal government. there is a seismic shift going on in washington now. this is a different moment and we have never been in. the trend work is finding the massive amounts of fraud, waste and abuse. we have a white house that is actually dedicated to getting us back on the fiscally responsible track. we are going to scale down the size of the bureaucracy and agencies, which has become the fourth branch of government. none of that was present or true before. when i became speaker i inherited a real mess. we had joe biden in the white house. we had divided government. it was a very difficult thing for us to navigate through. i didn't get to do anything i wanted or thought was really important for the country. i did what we had to do, what was necessary and what we could get 218 votes for. this is a totally different
7:30 am
scenario. by doing the cr this time, it actually is the responsible play and the conservative play because we are conserving the resources of the emmerik and people. this is something that all of us who wanted to do our whole careers now have the opportunity. >> reporter: will this be your last cr? >> this is what i expect. this white house is going to actually do its job. what a concept. the white house will send us a budget. this hasn't been done in a while. this white house will send us a budget that will request funding for a smaller, meter, more efficient, accountable federal government. that is a new paradigm for us. we are excited about that. that's what we are working on us and as we get this off the table. fy25. we turn to fy26, and that's when we have all of the cuts and savings that will be actualized at that point. there is a process, as i've explained in here. you have to qualify savings, you have to quantify them, and then you codify. the codification process comes
7:31 am
with 26. you will see the administration and congress working in tandem to provide and present a better -- something many of us ran for congress to do. that day is upon us and we are excited about it. >> reporter: mr. speaker, the stock market plunged yesterday. it is going down again today. part of the reason is because of trump's policies on tariffs, concluding ones that were just heard this morning. can you comment here. does trump need to rethink what he is doing given the chaos we are seeing in the stock market? >> this is how i feel about it, many of us feel about us. the president has proven what he can do on the economy. this is not theoretical. look at the first term of the trump and administration. prior to covid, we spoke about this many of times. the first two years we had a great as the economy in the history of the world, not just the u.s. go check it. every demographic was doing better. all votes were rising. we had thriving u.s. economy. we were booming. that is because of the policies and the strategy president trump led and delivered.
7:32 am
we cut taxes, we cut regulations, we let people keep more money in their pocket. we made america the first priority. that is what he is doing again. he's got therese shake and shape things because it is in a real mace. the last four years was a disaster in economic policy and every other measure of public policy. what president trump is doing, i think of it like when you play billiards. your playing pool. you go to the table, the balls are red. you hit it as hard as you can. many people strategy in the game headed as as hard as you can, break it up and send them spread. then you play the strategy of singing them in the holes. that's what we're doing now. it is a shake-up. he said, there's going to be a shake-up right now. this is what is required, in my mind, to start the process of repairing and destroying the american economy. i believe the strategy is going to work. i believe sometimes when you shake-up -- it is a violent thing on the table in the gay metaphor. but it always works out well in the end. i think you've got to give him
7:33 am
time. he's been in office for just over 50 days. this is the 51st day in office. give the president a chance to have policies play out. that's where we are. >> reporter: in your estimation, what plan -- what crime warranted his arrest and revocation? >> limit talise of the, i went facedown at the height of that stuff. when the pro-palestinian, pro hamas protesters were there, him telling you this is my own observation, not some thing a reddening newspaper. it was a dangerous. i met with jewish students before campus who were hauled away off campus because they were instructed by the administration not to come to class, which they paid for for fear of their physical safety. the administrators there refused to take control of that campus. they refused to allow the pd to come in and take control. it turned into chaos. the president has since been removed. now they have the same problem again. colombia and other universities have to keep control. the first responsibility of an administration is ensuring the
7:34 am
safety of students who are paying tuition to be there. for crying out loud, this madness has to stop. we have to get control of it. this guy apparently was a mastermind of those very things. gnashing of teeth and ripping of clothes and people scream at me, wanting to rip me limb from limb because i was there talking about moral clarity and the how there is a right and wrong. they were doing that. they disrupted the campus. they are threatening physical violence of fellow students. if you are on a student visa, i will say this clearly, if you are on the student visa and you are an american, and you are an aspiring young terrorists wants to prey upon your jewish classmates, you are going home. we are going to arrest your tale and send you home where you belong. this is just getting started. i appreciate free speech, i used to defended in courts. but this is far beyond the pale of that. you are threatening classmates and spewing anti-semitism in all of this hatred, it is enough pick i think the american people understand that. they are support get and i glad we have a president who is strong enough to lay down the
7:35 am
law. thinks a lot. >> dana: pekar johnson, he has a lot on his plate today. summit who can help me think it all through his republican senator mark wayne mullen of oklahoma. is a member of the senate armed services come in we will try to get you can as well but because we have that breaking news, and because you are helping liaison between the house and the senate on this spending bill, let's get your reaction to what he just said. >> first of all, speaker johnson is doing a phenomenal job. the fact that he is working so closely with the senate, with the white house, and then able to bring a coalition of a very, very slim majority to build and pass much needed tough bills. the reconciliation package or budget was very difficult to pass. the idea that he's able to bring a coalition, including the freedom caucus together with president trump's help to build a pass to see hour. i think it puts the democrats at a very tough position. it's also going to be up to republicans in the senate, which
7:36 am
will be able to get 51 or 52 votes on that. but it is going to be up to schumer to actually be able to allow his members to vote for it, or choose to shut down the government. >> dana: excuse me, sorry to ask. i should know this. 60 votes to pass the senate? >> yes. 60 votes for the cr. for reconciliation it is a simple majority. for the budget it's a simple majority. for the cr it is 60. so the most we could deliver in the senate's 53 republican votes. that's the most. we will probably do 51 or 52. the rest of it is up to the democrats. if schumer wants to have another schumer shutdown like he did in 2018, that is up to him. the democrats will make a decision now if they are going to shut down the government or not. republicans will do our part. they will deliver as a speaker johnson said in the house. we will deliver our 50 plus votes in the senate, and then
7:37 am
it's up to schumer to deliver the rest of them. >> dana: at a washington isn't awash in logic and common sense all the time, but i'm trying to figure out what is the leverage the democrats would have at this point? >> i really don't know their argument. in fact, they should consider this some type of wind. let's think about this. if we shut down, who controls the government at that point? it is the president of the united states. he will deem essential and nonessential, he will deem what agency stay open and what agencies don't. he will have full control over the government at that time. in this case, this should be something they would enjoy doing pick what the republicans want to do is say goodbye to the biden administration and put them behind us. cut the umbilical cord, move forward and start working on president trump's agenda moving forward, putting the doge cuts in place, and make sure we are securing america's future. but we can't do that as long as we keep fighting over biden's leftovers. that's what fy25 is, biden's
7:38 am
leftovers. for the democrats, it should be a win for them because unfortunately there's some policies in there that republicans didn't necessarily like, but we want to keep the government open underneath the biden administration. these are the same policies in place for another six months. keep in mind, chuck schumer should have already done this. showdra bardy deliver these appropriation bills. he had these on his desk since the end of july of last year and chose not to bring up a single appropriation bill underneath his leadership. which is shameful. >> dana: i know a lot of of you, we get to congress, it's like why aren't we doing the work we are sent here to do. the dow was down about 500 points right now. do you think in addition to what other uncertainty people feel about the tariffs, is the shutdown talk having an effect here? >> it always does. unfortunately it always does. you have a combination of three things happening. one, the market is correcting itself. there was a large bump after trump got elected because people
7:39 am
were excited about it. it has to adjust. and then you have the shutdown talks and tariff overhanging, especially with canada and mexico. the tariffs talks, people have to separate those in two different buckets progressive occult tariffs that president is trying to expand our economy and reach to be able to have parity with other countries which is what we should be doing pick with canada and mexico, it's about national security. they continue to allow the cartels and trafficking and fentanyl to fly across our northern and southern border, and we have to have their help. if they don't want to help us in the manner that we need, you have to have something to get their attention. that is what the tariffs on canada and mexico is about. we prefer not to do that, but they are not partnering with us to help fight crime pick the crime is coming from their side of the country flowing into our country. >> dana: senator, things were chopping into that breaking news for us. talk to you soon. >> bill: soul, democrats standing shoulder to shoulder thus far with a pro-hamas

from the white house. there is already action from canada as well. peter doocy. north lawn, to you. >> reporter: good morning again. this is different than what president trump did last week where he tried to address concerns about tariffs by reducing some of them for a couple of weeks. this time he is increasing the tariffs. there is a very, very long truth social post that just went up, where he says based on ontario, canada placing it 25% tariff on electricity coming into the united states have instructed my secretary of commerce to add an additional 25% tariff on all steel and aluminum coming in. he also says i will shortly be declaring a national emergency on electricity within the threatened area. he also says the only thing that makes sense is for canada to become our cherished 51st state picky says that would make the tariffs all disappear. most immediately impacted here would be 1.5 million energy customers in the state-supported canada, new york and minnesota and in michigan.
7:46 am
they are the ones that will seat the prices go up potentially from the canadian measure. this is trump's countermeasure. we will see what the canadians do once they get done reading the truth. >> bill: we are just looking at this. doug ford is the premier out of ontario. he has been quite vocal already. he just said ontario and canada will not back down until president trump's tariffs are gone for good. we will chew on that at the white house. thank you very much. data? >> dana: ringing hugh hewitt who is gracious enough to join us this morning to help us sort it all out pick how do you think about this? this has ratcheted up the last hour even. >> i was reading the toronto premier's comments last night, and i thought that is not the way to deal with president trump. if you punch him, he punches back hard. did so this morning. that was imminently predictable. i don't think canada can beat the united states in a trade war no matter how much electricity they sent to new york. mr. ford may want to find a way to back out of the room quickly
7:47 am
and quietly. >> bill: what is your take on the financial damage over today's? you are looking at this now technology took it really on the chin yesterday. and all the others are taking it on today with the dow down 500 points. >> i don't pay much attention to data in new york russian markets. i want to see the budget reconciliation, the permanent tax cuts extended to rally the markets back. tariffs are unsettling. the democrats threatened shutting down -- unsettled the last segment. i think what we are going to see is the markets will rebound once congress gets its act together and gets the trump agenda passed. >> dana: let's talk about the arrest of khalil -- momoa khalil and columbia university. i think it is a very interesting case. there was a lot of research, to help us understand it pick hears congresswoman to leib reacting to the arrest of khalil who was
7:48 am
arrested from columbia university for inciting protest. >> if you believe in constitutional rights, if you understand that you're targeting this person and everyone knows he has been very vocal against the genocide of the palestinian people in gaza. they are targeting him and refusing him constitutional rights. who is next? >> dana: how do you think about this case? >> i start with the fact that there are 12 million illegal permanent residence in the united states, green card holders, he is one of those 12 million. they have a lot of rights, but they are not american citizens. they can be deported. one provisional law which is providing if you're -- if you do serious damage to national security, the secretary of state can make that fighting it out you go. rubio made that finding about mr. khalil, so out he will go. he will get a hearing today i believe in new york southern district, but i don't find how
7:49 am
anyone could overrule the secretary of state making that particular fighting. not surprisingly, congresswoman to leib is wrong of the law, rug on the facts and drawing on the overall scope of what is going on. president trump also announced on truth social yesterday that this is just the first, and i'm glad it's the first pick lpr's have the most rights of any noncitizen in the united states. it is a warning shot as well to anyone supporting hamas, and i don't want to forget to mention don alexandra is an american citizen entering a 17 month of being held hostage by the terrorist organization hamas. there's other grounds to support the deportation of people depending upon their fact pattern. the secretary of state only needs to find reasonably likely you're causing potentially serious damage to national foreign policy. i think that's easy to make. >> bill: the lines are drawn already, put this up your. senate judiciary committee, democrats, democrats free mahmoud khalil pictou we have speaker johnson? a moment ago the speaker of the house, you may have been
7:50 am
watching it, he commented on khalil's matter here. >> this madness has to stop. we have to get control of it. this guy reportedly was a mastermind of those very things with the gnashing of teeth, ripping of clothes and people screaming at me, wanting to rip me limb from limb because i was there talking about moral clarit american, and you are an aspiring young terrorist to us to prey upon your jewish classmates, you are going home. >> bill: so, the hearing is tomorrow. i don't know what the judge does. first amendment argument out there on behalf of some. yesterday we had a guest on from columbia, and we wanted to know what terrorist activities he did threaten. it's one thing to lead the charge, it's another thing to put out the threat. have we seen that threat in writing that he espoused well-being a postgraduate? >> i have not, but i don't think you need to see it. this is why i think they've begun with mr. khalil picky has
7:51 am
the highest level of protection that a noncitizen can have, legal permanent resident, and td evidence showing he has made a specific statement of support of hamas. but he has been involved in demonstrations at columbia. all the secretary of state has to do under usc 1227 is find there is a reasonable chance he is doing damage to our national security. when democrats are presented with eight e-20 issue, 80% issue where americans agree, these demonstrations are bad for america, they are bad for colobia, bad for the students. they run for the 20. i'm glad senate democrats are rally around mr. khalil, because everyone would have moral clarity of this trick when they lose $400 million for good, and then harvard will get whacked today and leo tyrell running the task force at doj moves methodically through every university that is not protected their jewish students for the last 17 months. they will all lose their money and everyone will start taking it seriously pick out the
7:52 am
democrats continue to say we are with the demonstrators. >> bill: justice ito, breaking news here in new york, we've been told about a rally that will happen this afternoon at 2:00. down in greenwich village, washington square park, where the liberals gather. this will be a pro-palestinian march. in this case, it will be at the core of it. as i mentioned, the battle lines are drawn quite clearly already. >> dana: i like how bill hemmer has to describe where the liberals hang out in manhattan tech as if they aren't. >> bill: it's imported other, if i could defend myself. this is the spot where you gather for any protest that emanates out of new york. we will watch it and see what comes of it. >> dana: thank you b6 details emerge in the disappearance of an american college student who vanished in the caribbean. we will be right back. and this is his story. nice to meet ya. my name is david. i've been a pharmacist for 44 years.

where this person visited with my friends from the university of pittsburg. mysteriously vanished thursday morning early in the morning, a few days ago. just down this way to the hundred yards is the beach. that is where dominican authorities have increased presence today. utilizing every resource they have to try to find answers. we know that dominican authorities interviewed a man that they were last seen with. they are working to corroborate his story to take a look at this missing girl. here is what we know from local outlets and their reporting about what that man told authorities. a different variation of the story where they went into the water, got hit by rough waves, he vomited and passed out on the beach while she stayed in the water. we are also learning more about the timeline.
