the cvp officers that encounter people at the board, or are required to ask, under their own guidance, whether or not someone fear is returned to their home countries. that is, regardless of whether the person has put an expedited removal or not. and so cvp is turning back thousands of people all the time, including many reports, say people who are, are in facts, saying that they fear, returned to home countries that are being turned back anyway. and so what we are talking about is as a lack of resources throughout the system, not just at the border and certainly not just for enforcement purposes of law enforcement purposes. but, but resources needed at the level of asylum officers, resources needed at the level of the immigration court. that's where we should be focusing rather than a lot of the conversation, which has been about simply preventing people from coming in the 1st place. okay, more in what, what percentage roughly would you say of people who arrive at the board to manage to show that they have credible fare and are allowed to proceed through the system? so, you know, tha

number every day, which is really texting resources, both from the us officials, from border patrol and cvp, as well as the local communities that are working to support those migrants that are literally waiting sometimes for days to be picked up by us. agents often times in very remote parts of the border. it is even though it's the southwest border, it can get very cold at night. and so we have very little know people that continually cross every day and many times are simply stuck waiting with very little resources to have their chance to present themselves before us officials and mostly ask for protection. rebecca, why are we seeing these historic levels of number of people trying to get into the united states now? so i think there's a couple of reasons and your previous, the big that the top of this report you use, or your report, a sort of alluded to some of them. you know, there are a lot of people who are coming in here in the room or is about the political situation in the united states as we enter and election year. and as we hear of various, you know, people who are running for p

the reason they wanted to deploy cvp personnel to help border patrol with processing migrants hurtingational commerce, union pacific not happy. union pacific urges eagle pass in el paso border crossings to be reopened. roughly 450,000 rail shipments move across these two gateways annually, one million trucks to move the same amount of goods. these locations represent 45% of union pacific business and include goods critical to the us economy and it is not only in texas, look at this video we shot a couple hours ago in arizona where i am, you had a massive -- in the overnight hours as well as of this morning, border patrol to apprehend them had them walk down a road to go to the outdoor processing tend area but they keep coming in from all over the world, some of them from africa including liberia, others from bangladesh and back out here alive and the problem gets worse. regarding those railway crossings, that could potentially hurt the us economy and what the biden administration is doing is shutting down international commerce from those locations to speed up migrant processing and m

not only secure the border and go back to the policies of the previous administration, but to give cvp the tools and technologies that they say they need to do the job. >> biden's justice department has threatened to sue texas after governor greg abbott signed a new bill into law, giving texas the ability to arrest and deport migrants. and part of the doj's letter to governor abbott. the united states will use all that make sure that texas doesn't interfere with the federal government. responding saying, texas is prepared to fight this all the way to the u.s. supreme court to protect texans and americans from president biden's open border policies. president biden's deliberate and dangerous inaction at our southern border has left texas to fend for itself. recently white house secretary ca karine jean-pierre from the podium. >> we believe that his policies are not safe, for cvp, law enforcement on the ground trying to do their work, they put them in harm's way and they, well, they dehumanize, dehumanize and demonize immigrants. that's what his political stunts do. >> president biden's

edward: the number of migrants crossing into the us since president biden took office including the cvp sources for december so far. appreciate it. mexican officials want more economic aid from the us sent to migrants's homes in home countries in order to address the root causes of the problems of migration. here is republican congresswoman nancy mase. mace. is that the response ability of the us to support those other countries? >> reporter: our responsibility to the citizens of our own country come our own borders more so than any other nation in the world and as you said earlier blinken's visit to mexico is paying lip service to this issue and i represent an independent district, we are seeing independents, republicans and democrats getting angry about what they are seeing at the border. on some days we have more people crossing the southern border in one day than we do all year from the northern border. a massive problem for the biden administration, they refused to address it. edward: if you add it up to migrants crossing the southern border since president biden took office and cv

he also said that cvp and other federal agencies need more resources from congress to both enhance the security at the border and the country as a whole. and the reality is that the impact to communities to like eagle pass is brutal. this is a city of less than 30,000 people. local officials say they're having to deal with this crisis with little or no help from the federal government. earlier this week, we heard from congressman tony gonzalez, a republican, whose district includes two-thirds of the texas border. he says the situation here at the border is at a breaking point. pamela? >> so, what is the white house saying about this crisis then and this claim from officials there, the local officials on the ground, that the federal government just isn't doing enough? >> reporter: yeah. they say they're doing everything they can. they point the resources that are needed not only in terms of personnel but also equipment to help the border patrol, cvp, and everybody involved here. also the local and state agencies. but the reality is that the people that we've talked to here feel that it'

cvp sources telling fox news since october 1, border patrol alone released more than 380,000 illegal immigrants into the united states with what's called nta, notice to appear, and court dates and some are years out into the future because of how backlogged the system is. david, back to you. david: i did short math here and we're on track for 3 million migrants in the next 12 months. 3 million in just one year. this is extraordinary. bill, thank you for all your great reporting and appreciate it. for more on this, bring in kansas senator roger marshal, he's a member of the senate homeland committee. it's extraordinary. homeland security is in charge of the border. clearly there's nothing about that that makes any american, whether they're republican, democrat, liberal, conservative feel secure. >> yeah, david, i'd contrast what billion talks about and saying there's nothing unusual going on and nothing to be worried about and never mind the 300 people diagnose every day from fentanyl poisoning and the president going back to the border saying we've had an immigration problem for deca

when you've got cvp officers right now spending the majority of their time processing illegal immigrantsour country they're incentivizing them with housing and healthcare and education and actually dollars and they're giving them credit card now and -- cards now with cash value. they're incentivizing them to come over and this administration continues to do that. one of the things that we did last week was passing national defense authorization act and this week in commerce on the house and it helps finish the border wall. it puts money into the border wall. liz: senate democrats could shoot that down. here's the thing. seeing them doing that and all the pressure by sanctuary cities now and new york and chicago and la, i don't know that the senate will want to turn that down. liz: we have to wait and see. listen, this has been a big fight for years. the white house now has a really disingenuous narrative out. the question is where are biden's executive actions reversing his own orders that weaken the border. the white house claims congresswoman, it cannot do anything about border securit

we reached out to cvp giving us this statement, tucson executive agents encountered an armed subjectternational boundary fence once the subject noticed the agents and lowered his weapon to the ground and gestured to the mexico side of the boundary and multiple additional armed subjects were located and we obtained that suspect who told agents there were 11 armed people nearby and agents heard gunfire coming from the mexico side and pulled back to a safer area and mexican military responded that's when they found the ten explosive devdevices and my law enforcemet source says this ranch has a gap in the border fence that's typically used to funnel drugs through but now it's become a magnet for the cartel to push people through and this gunfight was essentially a gang war trying to fight for control over this gap in the fence. my source says this gap was a spot in the border wall that was just never completed, stuart. stuart: amazing. great reporting, hillary vaughn, good stuff. reporter: thank you. stuart: tom homan with me now. what do you think of the explosive devices at the border?

it's not just cvp and our bordel being overwhelmed here. it's overwhelming mayors in every type of city, large and small. it'll overwhelm education and law enforcement systems and public safety. 6 million migrants posted 2 million what they call got aways and known got aways and that's where we have no idea who the people are and going close to 6 million people went to honestly. this is going to have a repercussions for not only years and maybe decades to come. this is a disastrous kansas cite and democrats have to understand what a kansas city chiefs it's fio is and the -- catastrophe they've created and they want to go through the money and problem and that's not going to work. cheryl: good to hear that kirstin sinema from arizona is helping with this. those are senators understanding what's happening there as well. we shall see but certainly this trip for mayorkas and blinken didn't seem to come up with anything and maybe a photo op and end of the day, and more about the fellow senator rick scott from florida. he is the most resent repub

is in the sense that overwhelmed cvp be what causes bad? because actually the numbers are leveling off in october, november and then we have the enrollment spike and we had what we saw here. and it turns out we've had this one source on both sides of the boulder that it was because by then in december said he was going to do a deal with the republicans to crack down on the silent policy. and to pull more people on word spread all the other side of the board. it was now never that because good by just start desperate for money for the war. and ukraine is willing to do this deal with the republicans. and is that correct? our migration, you're about to go now. so what we've heard is even people who are following the rules, who made an appointment with cbp to have an asylum, came interview at some point in the future and then the coming months. it takes months of them. there was a king that they were hearing, well that system where they would be in place by next year. so you're about to go now. and that's why it seems we saw this enormous, you

to be processed by over whelmed custom and border patrol officers on the texas side of the border. cvp says the situation is posing a serious challenge to their operations on the border authority, say the increase in illegal crossings is the result of smugglers moving large numbers of people through mexico. but there's always multiple factors that bring migraines through mexico and costs spikes. and us border crossings this year and specifically, budget cuts to the immigration authorities here have meant they stop detaining and reporting on documented migrants in mexico. meaning many more have been able to reach the us border. the crisis has let the us to close 2 of the main cross border cargo railways, disrupting key supply lines between the 2 countries and costing millions and financial losses. the move is partly to redirect cdp staff to processing centers and also to dissuade additional migrants from using the trains to cross mexico. the biggest concern is a possibility that several of the companies affected by this closure will have to stop operations. as pressure rose on a sharply

a record 27,000 migrants are now being detained in cvp facilities where they will be processed and most will be released in the u.s. with customs and border protection completely overwhelmed, thousands of migrants have to wait in this field, many sleeping overnight in these cold temperatures, which is creating a humanitarian crisis as large groups continue arriving from mexico. we spoke with this group of migrants from venezuela. he says a lot of the people are dehydrated because they worked for hours. he walked 30 hours. so when they arrive here in the field in the u.s., they get sick. first response crews working nonstop to attend to the migrants in medical need. the er receiving more than double the amounts of patients they can handle. >> they are beyond their capability because that's not what they were set up to do. >> and, guad, president biden had a phone call with mexico's president today. do we know what was said? >> reporter: lester, both presidents agreed that actions need to be taken in both countries. so in the next few days, we can expect them to travel to mexico. lester?

the move is partly to redirect cvp staff to processing centers and also to dissuade additional migrants from using the trains to cross mexico. biggest concern. there's a possibility that several of the companies affected by this closure will have to stop operations. as pressure grows on a sharply divided us congress to add thousands more migrants in southern mexico are preparing to head north trying to reach the us before the new year to be a goal. yeah, i know i'll just euro mexico city and i said for me hiring for so you can find much more news on our website. i'll just 0 dot com next up. it's time for the weather and then inside story we'll be asking where the conflict ensued on stands off the 8 months of fights, the hey, they're roaring winds really the big story across northwest here. let's go. here's the details. so for the islands of ireland and britain, we'll see wins probably exceed 70 kilometers per hour. that was bad is that is the winds are going to be worse in denmark, with an up to about a 125 kilometers power. those are hurricane force winds. this will be rain for denmark

cvp announcing enhanced crackdowns on human smuggling a few weeks ago and while the talks were happening in mexico both dhs and ice made statements about deportation flights from the united states and central america and venezuela saying it was the 11th flight to venezuela. so a commitment from both countries to crackdown on human smuggling and also deportations. now these would be legal consequences to illegal entry. now we are also learning this morning from mexico's president, there's an ongoing press conference right now. he says that large caravan that formed in southern mexico that started with thousands of migrants has splint erred into 1500 migrants. they might be moving forward still but they're not moving in the mass, mass group. and one other detail we learned from the border patrol, including here in eagle pass, i want to note on the numbers here, it tells the story. he says that about 22,000 migrants were apprehended in the del rio sector last week. here's what we're noting out. we have been reporting the seven day daily average for migrant apprehension for the u.s. southern

the influx fueled by what cvp is smugglers peddling disinformation and limited resources in mexico. now, texas republicans taking matters into their own hands. >> senate bill four is now law in texas. >> the governor signing a law that makes it a state crime to enter texas illegally and gives police the authority to arrest. they can then be ordered by a court to return to mexico. >> biden's inaction has left texas to fend nfor itself. >> the law already facing legal challenges and plenty of backlash from texas democrats. >> it's going to create race. >> he's yes, and no. it's forcing another issue in which democrats and republicans are operating largely based on vibes and all of the solutions being kind of like -- build a wall or why don't they come in legally. why so many people are coming up. why these ports of entry are facing challenges, especially after title 42 and i think that what we're seeing right now are people making economic and in many cases, decisions, economic decisions and in many cases, decisions based on their own security and we're seeing democrats and republican

i want to point out these numbers are from cvp and don't reflect the month ovnovember with early numbers year and numbers are staggering and look down by ports of entry and border sectors and 22,000 in el paso and pete: 32,000 and this is a single day encounters in del rio. these are encounters meaning they encounter a border patrol agent and claim asylum and here illegally and under threat and what other countries could they have passed through and got aways and known got aways from this week. pete: there's not a lot of women and children in that. will: no. pete: this is explosion of military-aged males across the sectors. will: congressman max frost, maxwell frost said okay, listen, put this in context. think about what was happening in early 1900s and ellis island. >> this is not new for our country. we're a country that accepts people, especially refugees and i encourage people to look back at the history of ellis island and processing much more people than now. such a long time ago it's worse technology and we're able to do this. pete: sounds so smart. will: take you up on that. we'

griff: record numbers of migrants at the border as alex mentioned with cvp sources predicting another record number in december. meanwhile, customs and border protection say over 240,000 people were apprehended at the border last month, setting a record for the highest november on record. for more on this, let's bring in former acting ice director, tom holman and a fox news contributor. i want to get to the numbers. we got the november numbers, the december numbers are on track to break all records and might see a 300,000 month. what do you make of the situation right now? because what all of my border patrol sources are telling me, literally all of them, this is truly a breaking point the likes of which we've never seen. >> well, look, i think you're right. i think december when those numbers come in, it will be the highest month in history of any month of any year, and the border patrol is going to be 100 years old in another four months. and the border patrol is broke. i was down in texas, with texas dps two weeks ago and i've talked to many border patrol agents. they're broke. the

not only secure the border and go back to the policies of the previous administration, but to give cvp the tools they're requesting and tools and technology they say they need to do the job and tackle the fentanyl flowing into our country via mexico from china. we've passed legislation to prohibit schools and parks, as eric adams is using, used as migrant camps and shelters. chuck schumer, who is from new york city, refuses to allow the bills to come to the floor for a vote. mayor adams needs to talk to the senator from his city, why don't you talk about common sense solutions to solve this today, and eric adams is insisting that the city and taxpayers have responsibility to house, you know, tens of thousands of individuals that are citizens of other countries, when the right to shelter is for homeless new yorkers only. so he shares in the blame of this crisis that new york city is seeing and the reason is because he keeps incentivizing people to come to our city with free services. david: the mayor also keeps blaming texas governor abbott. there's-- a lot of people around the country,
