at ports of entry like brownsville. i want to thank again congresswoman gonzalez -- congressman gonzalez helping me get that through, get that passed into law. that's how you got the money from the gateway bridge from that fund. the bipartisan border security deal is a win for the american people. it's a win for the people of texas. it's for those -- it's a win for those who have a legitimate right to come here. it's a winner in people of brownsville. i believe that's why the border patrol unit endorsed it. i believe that's why the national chamber of commerce endorsed it. not known as a democratic organization with a capital d. that's why "the wall street journal" endorsed it as well. this is a truly bipartisan initiative. that's why the bipartisan south texas alliance of cities endorsed it. folks, i didn't get everything i wanted in that compromise bipartisan bill. but neither did anybody else. compromise is part of the process. that's how democracy works. that's how it's supposed to work. compromise is a very positiv

brownsville has just seen 46 migrant encounters over the last five days. texas has a lot to do with that, installing anti-climb fences, concertina wire and national guard troops. former president trump is heading to eagle pass where agents have apprehended more than 2000 migrants in that same time period. >> john: he has just touched down in del rio, texas and apparently when he gets off the aircraft talking to the press who has been travelling with him. brian kilmeade on the duelling visits and the crisis in america, but first griff jenkins is in brownsville awaiting biden's arrival. who is the president going to meet with and what's he going to see, griff, besides you? >> well, john, he's gonna meet with front line border officials like chief jason owens and others who are going to give him an operational briefing and secretary mayorkas is right, numbers are down, particularly in brownsville, just 46 encounters in the past five days but he's gonna get a briefing about what crossed this morning right here in brownsville. take a look at this exclusive vide

you point to brownsville. brownsville is one of the places where you have the least amount of illegal border crossings. lessons to be learned there. they have walls and some of the most advanced technology. they're fully staffed. so it's interesting he went down there. there's a bunch of things that can be true at once. biden screwed this up from day one. he rescinded a bun of of trump's orders and put in new orders. he created the magnet of massive waves of illegal immigration. for him the lay blame on republicans because too many republicans didn't like that deal that he seems to like, that's a very disingenuous claim. you have two competing stanceser. republicans our perfect bill is hr 2. we pass i'd it last year. biden says his bill is this other one. i don't disagree that we have to talk and meet in the middle and i urge our leadership to do that. i think there's an ever increasingly smaller window of opportunity to do that where we can add border security measures to a ukraine aid package. i didn't want

the border in brownsville has quieted down.e have seen some areas a little bit better due in no small part of layers of wire that have been laid by the texas national guard at the direction of governor abbott against the wishes of the white house, who has tried to fight that and get that wire taken down. so a lot of irony at play here today as the president visits some of these places and tries to get a handle on what is going on. bill melugin is reporting live from eagle pass. that's where we expect to see the former president, donald trump. hi, bill. >> yeah, martha, good afternoon to you. as you mentioned, any minute now, we're expecting the former president to arrive at shelby park. secret service just came through. we have people on the mexican side waiting for the president to arrive. about an hour ago, he landed in del rio international airport. del rio obviously famous for the almost 20,000 haitians that arrived at the international bridge there in 2021. also when the fake narrative about the whipping scandal took place

brownsville has had just 46 in the same time. take a look at monday here in eagle pass, 500. 0 in the brownsville area. some of the activity in eagle pass. look at the images. it happened yesterday. border patrol and texas dps coming agroup of five unaccompanied migrant children mixed in with 60 illegal immigrants. they were from honduras and guatemala ages 5-11. notes with addresses in new york and texas. they'll be resettled in the u.s. over 400,000 of these unaccompanied children that have arrived under president biden's leadership. look at the mug shots here. a series of high profile arrests involving violent crimes in illegal immigrants this week. a venezuelan man arrested for the murder of laken riley in georgia. a salvadoran man for a death of a 2-year-old. a honduran man and a venezuelan man arrested for the sexual assault of a 14-year-old. president trump is promising there will be mass deportations if he is he elected. >> by the time this guy gets out of office we'll have 18 million in my opinion that some come from pri

you look at brownsville just 46. look at monday. 563 here in eagle pass. 0 in brownsville.me of the activity in eagle pass looks like. look at the images. a group of unaccompanied children were apprehended by border patrol in eagle pass yesterday. part of a group of 60 illegal immigrants that crossed. little kids were ages 5-11 from honduras and guatemala. notes with addresses in new york and texas where they are trying to go. they will be handed over to hhs. the biden administration will resettle them in the united states. as you look at the video of former president trump expected to be out here in eagle pass this afternoon, you can expect him to really hammer president biden on his mass catch and release policy. you can expect him to highlight some of the recent high profile arrests of illegal immigrants involving violent crimes against americans all over the country. we caught up with the border patrol union president brandon judd a short time ago and told us that the biden administration and the white house didn't even invite the union or reach out to the union before

you can see it curls right around brownsville. this whole area must be affected by what we've been watching over the past several years down there. >> gillian: we're looking to see also what president biden will announce. it is atypical for the president to travel down there to an area like the southern border and not make some kind of announcement. the white house saying it probably won't be an executive order. all eyes on him. the ball is on the white house's court to actually do something. >> bill: jamie lopez is with us now. good morning to you. we know how personal this issue is to you. specifically in brownsville, how did you do it? what changed or did the cartels just redirect the flow? >> the governor and i worked on legislation and passed $6.6 billion towards more border security including more hands-on with the texas military as well as dps to come and assist. the barbed wire and increased the wall that wasn't there before. we have put a lot of work into this because of the neglect biden has caused for us here in texas.

he's in brownsville, texas. you just heard the head of the national border patrol council, brandon judd criticizing biden for being there in brownsville for not being closer to tucson, arizona, which is where the number one migrant issue is happening. of course, the most crossings congresswoman were you to make sure that we can get your connection, that it is here. but i should know what brandon judd was saying. he was criticizing biden for being in brownsville and for not being in the tucson sector. i should note trump was standing right there at eagle pass. he's also nowhere near tucson where the height of this issue is but on president biden, given you're a democrat, what do you make of where he decided to go today >> kaitlan, you're right. i mean, mr. judge should have criticized donald trump as well for being texas and not arizona. the fact of the matter is really many of the migrant pathways end up shifting over time arizona right now is definitely where the highest number of encounters are. but recently i

the difference with eagle pass and brownsville, eagle pass 2000 and brownsville just 46.lle. what has been taking place in eagle pass? this is yesterday. border patrol troopers finding five unaccompanied young migrant children from guatemala and honduras, part of a group that passed, kids were ages 5-11, with notes going to new york and texas. biden administration will resetel them throughout the united states. video of president trump campaigning. when he speaks today, we are expecting a number of topic, mass catch and release policy and highlight arrest of illegal aliens in recent days and weeks, high profile crimes committed against americans and earlier i caught president of the border patrol union who will be on stage with the president today. i asked him why he's joining the former president? >> agents are nonpolitical, they want policy to allow us to do our job and that is what president trump does. >> bill: just a short time ago, we learned federal judge blocked texas border security bill sb 4, set to take effect next week that would allow texas to arrest and jail

i don't know why they picked -- i don't know why they picked brownsville but brownsville traditionallyound zero for this problem. and it ebbs and flows all across the southern border. you know, you go to texas and they say no, there is more in arizona. you go to laredo and people says so much more in el paso. >> brian: you could see what the numbers are and show up where it's bad and go to san diego and see where the buses are unloading people or shelby county park. >> ainsley: can i ask you what do we need to do to help mexico fix their government because rachel campos-duffy was down on the border and heart wrenching stories of people coming across the border. saying they had to sell their car for 2,000 to do so get money to pay a cartel. someone else said they had to sell their house. they were all charged money. the majority of them were charged money to come over the border. so the cartels are a problem. kamala harris was supposed to figure out root causes. well we know the root causes, it's the cartels, the drug problems down there. it's them not. >> famine. >> ainsley: why is it

using bolt cutters we are gathering more notion of coincides with the visit to brownsville eagle passrerngs five days we will find former president trump later today made immigration border control central to his agenda as during last campaign and during his administration, maria biden's visit comes amid white house criticism of house republicans, who say house republicans abandoned bipartisan border deal residents here in brownsville say they see through that criticism they know biden could take action with executive order home calling him to do that from brownsville we will see if that happens. maria: lydia you are in probably one of the quitest areas at the border right? like 40 apprehensions versus thousands near eagle pass. >> exactly right residents want to know where was president biden last year. in may, june when thousands of migrants flowing through border here being processed right here at this center behind me they say now looking for a pretty photo-op to show border not so bad come here look at brownsville they say really governor abbott fortifying the border where migran

and benjamin alvarez group i was standing by for us in brownsville, texas benjamin. the border issue has been a liability for president bite, and now he's going on the offensive. what's he doing to improve his reputation on enforcing? border security. steve's going on the offensive, but for many people here in brownsville, that we spoke to this trip is coming to le. let's remember, this was the 2nd trip to the southern border since president bind took office. the 1st one was in el paso, in texas, in january of last year, and some people that we spoke to 2 days that that this is just a photo opportunity for him. others, it told us that it's important for him to show that more support is needed and that's also what we heard in the speech. we just heard there a small segment of the part where he directly addressed donald trump address. the republicans is saying that this needs to have bi partisan support not playing politics. and he said the border patrol and some of his leaders. he met them today . and secretary and your cost was also here and he said that they need mo

he's in some sanitized location in the brownsville area. not seeing the razor wire that texas has put up around brownsville. and he announced he was going to brownsville after it was already known that president trump was coming to the state of texas. it just goes to show that biden does not care about either texas or the border. and what's going on. as a result you see a disaster. the united states of america is dealing with more deadly consequences than we have in my entire lifetime because of joe biden's policies on the border. and it did not have to be this this way. as president trump just talked, there were four poll shis put in place that led to the lowest illegal border crossings in about four decades. the end of catch and release. the title 42 policy. the remain in mexico policy. and building the border wall. all joe biden had to do to secure the border was to keep in place what president trump put in place in the first place. but instead, what joe biden did, he signed executive orders eliminating all of the effective policies that

that is right the border is certainly an issue that the residents of brownsville texas understood and live all too well they say a visit from president biden, this week, is just too little too late, it was just last year that migrants hovered thousands through processing center behind me two days ago, those numbers down to only 12, the processing center quiet, sources tell us that borrowed krfgs still happen just not happening here in brownsville to the same degree migrants shifting west of here, after texas installed events around brownsville residents tell us they are grateful to the state. >> the appearance changed least resistance texas putting up a fight i hope other states, notice that because it can make a difference, when your state stands up fights for you in federal government will not do it. it makes a difference. >> president biden will make his second visit to the border when he comes here to brownsville, the visit takes place after biden faced criticism from republicans, for not coming to the border when migrant encounters hit all-time record high just in december. but t

this is brownsville.p, he is also, i want to say on the campaign trail. of course he is not yet. and especially the governor of the state of texas. but we were just hearing from donald trump who has been giving his thoughts on illegal immigration, the number of undocumented migrants coming into the us and putting the blame very, very firmly at president joe biden and his policies. we will keep an eye on those pictures. if we seek president biden heading towards the programme we will cut straight there. but i would like to remind you we

so let's not forget the presence is gonna go to brownsville. brownsville. the mayor brownsville is republican. so he's going to hear from people who are directly affected by this day in and day out. so again, not about politics this is coming together in a bipartisan way to try to deal with an issue that majority of americans care about. and that's a broken immigration system that's been broken for decades and dealing with the border challenges we're seeing. >> one of the things that some americans are focused on are crimes that are allegedly being committed by migrants who are in the country illegally. there was a death of laken riley in georgia. there's been an arrest made. >> their republicans >> are directly blaming president biden for this republican senator josh hawley said, quote, these deaths are on him what's the white house response to that >> so first of all, i want to offer our condolences to the family of lake and i mean, this is a horrific, horrific loss for any family. and obviously any if whoever is found guilty, we need to make sure that ma

lydia hu in brownsville, texas, with more on this.ia. >> the border is a problem that the city of brownsville knows all too well, and residents say that president biden's visit is now too little too late. just last year migrants poured by the thousands through this processing center just behind me. you can see them here lining up in this video that was shot from may. but two days ago only 12 encounters recorded here. sources tell us border crossings are still happening, they're just not happening here. migrants are now shifting west after texas install the installed -- installed barriers and fences around brownsville. ing the residents say they're grateful to the state. >> the pattern's change where there's least resistance, and right now texas is putting up a fight. i hope other states notice that because it can make a difference. when your state stands up and fights for you when the federal government will not do it, it makes a difference. >> reporter: it will be president biden's second visit to the border when he comes here after

this is brownsville. this is a city in texas where illegal crossings have dropped sharply in the last few years. we wanted to hear his words and also former president donald trump, he is also, i want to say on the campaign trail. of course he is not yet. and especially the governor of the state of texas. but we were just hearing from donald trump who has been giving his thoughts on illegal immigration, the number of undocumented migrants coming into the us and putting the blame very, very firmly at president joe biden and his policies. we will keep an eye on those pictures. if we seek president biden heading towards the programme we will cut straight there. but i would like to remind you we have our panel here. brian taylor — jennifer carroll — former lieutenant governor of florida. if people are wondering why the two men have gone to texas on the same day, a recent poll saw 28% of americans name immigration at their top concern beating every other topic which may explain why they are taking the issue so

what is he going to see in brownsville?thing, he's not going to bring back policies that president trump had four years ago and he's just coming just to take pictures and to make it seem like he's actually doing something when we all know he's not doing nothing and that is why we need new leadership coming this november and that's exactly what the people of rio grande valley are going to do, they're going to elect new leadership. maria: jason owens posted on x that in the last 72 hours border be patrol agents throughout the southwest border apprehended 11 migrants with violent criminal histories. the history includes child molestation, aggravated assault, rape, murder. in louisiana, a 19-year-old illegal migrant was arrested for the rape of a 14-year-old girl at knife point. meanwhile, republicans on the house homeland security committee are demanding documents and information from the department of homeland security on the venezuelan national charged with the murder of georgia college student laken riley. in a letter to th

, that roughly 100 migrants crossed in brownsville using bolt cutters to penetrate the border. our producer shot this video of migrants being processed and bustout this morning at even with the overnight jumping activity the encounters are still not close to the numbers seen in eagle pass, texas, more than 300 miles west of where we are in brownsville. in eagle pass, more than 2000 apprehensions were made over the past 5 days that is where we will see donald trump making his stop on the border today. he has made immigration and border control central to his agenda while he is calling -- if he were to retake the white house president biden will spend his time criticizing house republicans for abandoning bipartisan talks on a border deal. back to you. neil: as lydia pointed out donald trump will be in eagle pass, texas. around the 4:00 hour on the east coast we will be hearing from both presidents, the present one and the former one, covering that at 4 p.m. eastern time. ahead of that steve james, montana senator of the national republican senatorial committee kind enough to join

that will happen in brownsville, texas. border town once ground 0 but now is seeing a drastic drop in crossings. griff jenkins is there. let's go to griff now. how much of a sense does he get of the problem in brownsville? he was in el paso a year ago, didn't see much, griff. hello. >> well, that's right. good morning, bill. a bit of a head scratcher. in brownsville the border patrol station here saw just yesterday in the last 24 hours only 12, a dozen illegal crossings. compare that out west to california and arizona where they see upwards of 2,000 a day. it is not very busy here. but if you go back nine months, may of 2023 last year rick let me show you the images. fox was in the air and on the ground. you can see hundreds of migrants, waves of them crossing the rio grande because there was no razor wire. texas had not reinforced this area where we're standing. it was known as camp monument. mayorkas and then chief of the border patrol ortiz visited. we saw video texas dps was rescuing migrants throwing a rope in the rive

is he going to say, look, brownsville is fixed here. i could have fixed the whole border but republicans bailed on the bipartisan deal. this is about politics. they are probably going to wheel out a podium for him. what else can you expect? >> lawrence: brian, i hope someone in the press asks the current president, there is a wall behind me. this is not the donald trump wall. this is probably one of the walls that joe biden used to vote for. now all of a sudden he is not for barriers at the border. so the question to joe biden is what changed from when you were in the senate to now as president? >> ainsley: yeah. i mean, the reason brownsville is not seeing as much traffic is because of president trump's infrastructure and also greg abbott has really worked on that area. if you look at some of the numbers from ice. in fiscal year 2021, illegals on the non-detained docket, they soared from 3.7 million in '21 to 4.8 million in '22, fiscal year to nearly 6.2 million in fiscal year 23. the critics are right to accuse joe biden of making thi

maria: brownsville, 46 apprehensions. we know how many apprehensions are happening, it's a disaster. >> i think biden's last border visit which is probably a year ago, took a picture right in front of trump's wall, but with regards to the political stunt thing and what republicans are really trying to do at the border, hr 2 is a fantastic bill that makes a lot of common sense, get back to building a wall, increase the number of full-time border agents to at least 22,000, only consider asylum if someone actually goes through unofficial port of entry, whole family at attention, don't separate parents from their kids and remain in mexico until your court date, what is wrong with that, democrats want to increase the number of processors so they can get as many people in as quickly and efficiently as possible, that's the big difference but the democrats won't tell it to you that way, they will say that republicans are fighting -- we don't want more processors, we want and forces. maria: so disingenuous to say republicans don't

>> i was told there were only six apprehensions and brownsville yesterday.cross taxes, other border towns might have slightly higher apprehensions. but i want to fact check one of the things the former said today. he was claiming there was a migrant crime wave occurring. the data just does not match up with that. a stanford study shows that immigrants are 60% less likely than nativeborn americans to be incarcerated. and in sanctuary cities each unit increased actually represents a 5% decrease in violent crime. >> president biden called on senate republicans to call -- past the bipartisan border deal. he said he might act alone with an executive order. tell us more about that. >> it could come in a matter of weeks. what is being considered would severely restrict asylum-seekers. it would narrow who can claim asylum. i was talking to immigration have gives today to have been in talks with the white house and they are trying to convince biden to essentially go a different route with an executive order. declare an emergency declaration and send more resources to
