armstrong died in 2012. did the obama administration know about the kids flighting over at southern border a year ago? scrambled politics is next. weird... seriously? what? they're magically delicious

but if you do... [ glass breaking, dog barking ] ...with allstate, your rates won't go up just because of it. claim rateguard from allstate. your home protects you, protect it back. now here is your first look at this morning's dish of scrambled politics. according to the washington post, a team of experts raised alarms about the border crisis a year ago. in a 41-page report to the department of homeland security. a team from the university of texas warned an average of 66 people were apprehended at the

border each day and the situation was expected to get worse. president obama is expected to announce today that millions of dollars are being dedicated to the my brother's keeper initiative. it's aimed at helping boys and young men of color. the initiative should see a 104 million boost thanks to new partnership. brian pits will receive the medal of honor today. he'll be the ninth living recipient awarded the medal for actions in iraq or afghanistan. he'll join the president at the white house to commemorate the service. lindsey graham was on meet the press yesterday. he criticized kerry's perception of the current state of foreign affairs. >> as to secretary kerry, he gave the most ridiculous and delusional summary of american foreign policy i could imagine. it scares me that he believes the world is in such good shape. >> it is now a crime in one

the energy sector. i think there's pressure from within the united states politically and internationally to step it up further. possibly to entire sectors of the russian economy. the europeans have been reticent to do that. their economy is tied more closely to russia. i think it could be the next step. there's some talk from lindsey graham and others for the u.s. to arm the ukrainian fighters. so far they haven't wanted to do that. >> with adding the military aid there's concern more put more weapons on the ground that is shaky. >> secretary kerry heading to cairo. raising some eye brows after comments caught on an open mic. >> absolutely. that's a situation on fox news. the secretary did not believe he was on camera. it was between tapings and he

was talking to an aid and talking about he was concerned about some of the civilian casualties in gaza. and reacted very strongly to that. it appears the united states has been putting pressure on netanyahu to take this and escalate the situation further risking civilian lives. kerry had the reaction saying that the secretary was reacting to the situation but so far the united states continues to support this ground invasion in a limited capacity. i'm putting pressure on them not to escalate. i think that's where the situation is. >> david with the washington post. thank you so much. just ahead. adam levine's super model wedding. plus brangelina's big screen reunion. entertainment headlines are next. and i am so thankful to angie's list for bringing us together. find out why more than two million members count on angie's list.
