congressman dan crenshaw wondering if that's a sign of a president too much at the mercy and controlo you think of what he is saying? >> he said a number of things, he said he's going to campaign against any republicans who support going after the cartels. the assumption is we would do that by, with and through the mexican government, disappointing that he lashes out in this way. makes me think he is more offensive of the cartels in his own people. paul: talking about ratcheting things up, us troops to the border, and support in congress for doing just that. griff jenkins in mission, texas with how that is going down including the latest numbers on getting to that border. >> reporter: that's right and the number of give ups, migrants who turned themselves in are down a little bit the past few winter cold months we've had, january and february, but the number of got aways is surging and that is what i saw this morning. i've been out since 4:30 this morning with texas dps troopers, we have pursued three separate groups of migrants, observed on cameras crossing. we were not able to brin

there was a fascinating exchange on twitter between texas congressman dan crenshaw and the president exico. the president pushed back against calls of the u.s. military to go after the cartels and congressman crenshaw responded to that in spanish and said eliminating the cartels is in the interest of both countries and the president responded to that saying he'd encourage mexicans and hispanics in mexico not to vote for republicans. congressman crenshaw joined the man himself and i can't remember the foreign lieder trying to have a -- leader to have a direct impact on a american election. that's outrageous. >> that's a foreign interference and pretty sure it's against the law. that seems pretty clear he's more interested in representing the cartels than the mexican people and i'm here for the american people and the mexican people and the mexican people want to get rid of the cartels and the mexican people produced fentanyl and there's drugs in mexico just like here. it's all produced in mexico and precursors come to china and lets it happen and his cartels to operate with impunity an

and one of the guys obrador is calling out is congressman dan crenshaw who joins us now.>> well, look, i'm from the mexican people. i'm for the american people. i'm against the cartels. i would think that the president of mexico amlo would also be against the cartels gave a great intro jesse. he is clearly not against the cartels. he is clearly defending the cartels at the detriment of his own people. cartels have killed a lot of americans whether through lacing drugs with fentanyl or just murdering when they go down to g.e.d. get a medical appointment. they have killed a lot more mexicans, tens of thousands of mexicans have been disappeared by the cartels, politicians are either killed or bought off and mexican people are sick of it. this guy threatened recently to come campaign against republicans who support helping the mexican people. >> jesse: please, come campaign against republicans. >> i'm super worried about it. jesse, i'm really worried. i think it's going to be a real problem in my district. i have actually been hearing from both mexican nationals and immigrant

we have members of congress who are trying to do things about it, dan crenshaw has introduced a bill,is building bipartisan support for a bill that would put together basically a and a omf authorization for the use of military force to go across the military force but when we may be problematic is using the u.s. military in a place like mexico that's foreign. >> gillian: it's a start and a way to flush out a conversation about this that it is a real and persistent problem. more than the president takes it very seriously. >> john: you can take a lot of saying dumb i think seriously is doing something about. >> gillian: executive. when we run th here, i say this at least every week. >> john: 40 we can for everybody. >> gillian: there is also this major league baseball trying to stay out of politics since they faced major backlash for pulling their all-star game from atlanta after the state faced accusations of voter suppression, but if the league listens to "the washington post" now, they should try to turn a double play. columnist writes "baseball can no longer ignore ron desantis' cul

lindsey graham supports the use of literary support and dan crenshaw supports military force.z says things, but i don't think we need to use the military to invade our neighborhood country. dan crenshaw also had an interesting point about designating this foreign terrorist organization. he said that would trigger something that would make it even worse. listen to what he said. >> you don't want to designate them as that, why? because you made millions of people in mexico valiant silent seekers. so you increased at the border if you call them terrorist. >> john: speak to that idea. if you say terrorist are living in mexico and the terrorists or terrorist organizations, then you give people a legal reason to come to the united states. >> i think just designating them, one, it doesn't give us that much more power. it gives us power to act directly against some of the leaders and the government for potentially colluding with the cartels. but congressman crenshaw is right. it allows the people to say, "welcome if they are terrorists and legitimate refugees, so we don't get anything

. >> john: we'll be talking to congressman dan crenshaw in the next hour here on "america reports" aboutlation he's working on with democrats that would not declare cartels to be a foreign terrorist organization but would allow the u.s. military to go after them. let me ask you, erin, about china. because as congressman tiffany points out, the precursor for fentanyl produced in mexico comes directly from china. you have to figure, i'm sorry, that china knows what it's doing here. what do you think china's game is here? to undermine american society? >> absolutely. i think that they are targeting us. i mean there's no doubt about it. put the details and the fabts on the table, we are being targeted. there's no doubt about it. >> john: we heard, congressman, erin's compelling testimony today. yesterday we heard from rebecca keesling who lost both of her sons to fentanyl poisoning. how she described the situation here. >> this is a war! act like it. do something! >> john: she was just distraught yesterday in her testimony proclaiming this is a war. why is it falling on so many deaf ears in

we'll bring you his heated exchange with republican dan crenshaw. he's going to be on the show. we're going to call out the president for blaming republicans for defund the police. he's pivoting, trying to flip the blame for his failed policies. and we'll bring you matt taibbi. the democrats are contemptuous of this. they know they've lost twitter which used to be their very own thought police machine. it's friday, march 10th, 2023.ys about to begin. ♪ ♪ who's gonna work for the working man ♪ stuart: all right. we've got to get jumping right into this one. svb, the big problem for the banking industry yesterday, svb halted this morning. i is see, by the way, the big with banks are down a little bit today. kenny polcari with me. you're here for the full hour. svb, what's the danger of contagion? because that's the big fear on wall street. >> yeah. i don't think there's any danger of contagion to the rest of the banking industry. it's a very specific story to svb. jpmorgan is not in that boat, wells fargo, s citibank, bank of america, they're not in that boat. there may be some is

general bill barr writing op-ed supporting that move and were doing this alongside representative dan crenshawe know what it means to treat the groups like the terrorist groups like they are there like isis than they are the mafia. >> that the op-ed this weekend by bill barr, the u.s. must defeat mexico's drug cartels that we could no longer tolerate narco teller under terrorist cartels i made the point a couple times that these drug cartels are using armament similar to the military to mexico huge tanks and guns and that's what our border patrol, a face-off with. pre-teresa operation killed or wounded fo 615 mexican soldiers and shut u shot off their aircraft until the mexican dilatory withdrew. again in the 1990s, we were running around the world trying to arrest al-qaeda and treating them as a law enforcement until we realize the hard way the national security threat that they were and begin targeting them with military assets. that's the same approach in mind ship that we need when it comes to the mexican cartels with it by the way are being funded supported and supplied by the chinese, th

. >> former green beret congressman and navy seal dan crenshaw and troops into mexico but allowing for cyber capabilities to really take on the cartels in a military way. they call them paramilitary organizations that are destabilizing not just mexico but north america and they are right about that. i think the response from the mexican president is quite telling, the mexican government is bad much of the time with the cartels is very corrupt and the fact that he does not want to allow the united states to come in and take care of this problem when the mexican government is not capable given how fully armed and how many resources the cartels have shows this isn't necessarily just about the cartels but about the corrupt mexican government enabling this kind of behavior and allowing these cartels to operate on the southern border with the united states with little consequence while hundreds of thousand plus americans are dying every year from fentanyl net mexico allows to be import from china. gerry: chris bedford we see in america and see the use of military force by the united states a

dan crenshaw urged the biden administration to initiate military action against cartel, lindsey grahamnator from south carolina, demanded u.s. forces destroy drug labs. none of that sounds serious. that's not the republican policy option that deals with things you say are important? >> i spent 20 years in the navy, five years in iraq and afghanistan. now he what war looks like and hate war and want to prevent war. >> not bomb labs. >> part of it is rolling up your sleeves and going to work. last week i gave senator john cornyn a lot of cred, put together this congressional delegation, 12, six republicans, five democrats and an independent and traveled to mexico city last weeknd and met with the president of mexico and had a four-hour dialog, four hour discussion. that is how you solve problems. that's the state department's job and state department isn't doing their job. congress can't just point fingers. we can't place blame. we are an equal body and we have to roll up our sleeves and find solutions. >> we'll stay tuned and stay in touch on that. look for those solutions. thank you fo

dan crenshaw, a former sale.hey introduced the authorization for military force we can use to go to the mexican government saying you can't handle this, we'll handle it for you. we'll handle it for you. we will be nuances and use drones. we are going to take out these processing facilities and take out the cartels and their leadership and they are killing 100,000 americans a year and holding your government hostage. brian: it looks like china leads the world in 47 of the 100 top technologies. we are losing in the classroom and in technology. >> 10 of the top 20 tech companies are in china. our government is trying to introduce antitrust legislation to hobble our big tech companies. we have to get serious about it. the chips act was a first step. but we need to do more to stay ahead. if we lose the technology war we'll lose our competition with china and lose our way of life. brian: the president has no problem taking on the gun lobby. why won't he attack this. no one blames him or tent nil or china for his insidi

this bill that i have introduced with representative dan crenshaw would authorize the pentagon to beginlitary assets. including even satellite imagery, targeting special operations. whatever we determine is needed but what we can't do is continue allow our border to be run and our cities to be destabilized and our neighbor to fall into a failed narco-state. do nothing. >> ashley: we have to get to this. the white house is deflecketting questions after the "wall street journal" reported that china may be using cranes as potential spying tools. listen to this. >> well, there were the chinese spy balloons and now there are these chinese spy cranes the "wall street journal" is comparing them to trojan horses and use 80% at u.s. ports? >> on the cranes, don't have any comment on that specific reporting. i would refer you to the department of transportation and the department of defense who have been tasked with congress to study this particular issue. >> congressman, your thoughts on what you just heard? >> yeah, the spy cranes, well, look, we have to understand that anything that is made in

texas congressman dan crenshaw wants biden to take military action in mexico against the cartels.oesn't like that idea. here is his chain saw response to it. >> the president is out of control. if you weren't sure if he was bought off by the cartels before you can be sure now. his slogan just so people know when he ran for president was hugs, not bullets. tell me you are part of the drug cartel without telling me you are not part of the drug cartel. >> harris: crenshaw slices right through it. it is ridiculous. >> we should pass. they have the bill to have an authorization of military force to go after the cartels. we should declare them foreign terrorist organizations. they have killed more people than al qaeda. again, he could do it with the stroke of his pen, biden could. he is not doing it. we should try to do this with the mexicans, not despite the mexicans. the only way the mexicans will do it if we are convinced we're willing to do it alone. obrador talks about sovereignty. it is a responsibility. you have a responsibility to govern your territory and prevent your territory

. >> ashley: congressman dan crenshaw made interesting point on "fox & friends" yesterday.is not in favor of laboring the cartel is terrorist because it would increase our immigration issue that we have here. that was the first time i had heard that. but when you hear people talk about and we had one yesterday that was 50 miles where this happened in brownsville, texas. and they are all for sending u.s. military to the border, but do you think that would make any difference just having, not necessarily clearing film terrorist organizations but having to military presence there? would that be deterrent enough? >> absolutely come everybody that works for the border patrol for the most part are being deployed like babysitters because you have 6,000, 7,000 people coming in a day. so we don't have the strength we need along the border and they know that. this is one hole after another long the porous border that they can push the product through which is humans and drugs. so yes a stronger presence with her military, more border patrol agents more law enforcement, a strong prese

dan crenshaw from texas says he believes president obrador is also in cahoots in one way or another with sense? >> yes. if you look at the trial in mexico, of all the corruption, how can we even fight this problem if you have the top leaders out there who are taking bribe money to let loads of dope come in to the united states. so we need to do something, but the corruption is there. it's just -- we have to attack it. it's got to be a whole hearted commitment from everybody. >> martha: last question, steve. let's put up this number on human smuggling. in some ways, you know, smuggling of people is even more lucrative than drugs for the cartels. $13 billion paid in human smuggling. how would you go after that, steve? >> well, first of all, you have to realize the drug cartels are not -- they're poly criminal organizations. they're not just drug trafficking organizations. they'll make a buck anywhere they can. you know, we have all been debating whether we should build a wall along the border. just say on the front, it won't hurt. that is not the one solution that will stop the problem. st

we put that question to congressman dan crenshaw, he has legislation he's working on with democrats which would provide authorization for the use of military force against these cartels. what he said about supply versus demand. >> the supply creates the demand. that -- that dealer gets into a high school and gets kids addicted and they overdose 20 years later. we have seen it happen because they are addicted for life when they get it young. so that supply absolutely needs to be dealt with, and that's also a concrete thing we can deal with. you tell me how to change and fix human nature where they don't want to self-destruct and take drugs, i'm all ears. >> john: my understanding the situation with your daughter was she was suffering from some sort of depression, she was looking for a pill to help her with that, what do you say to congressman crenshaw and the best way to attack it is go after the supply rather than the demand. >> well, i agree we need to go after the supply. i can tell you there's not a supply for death, my daughter was seeking relief. she was not seeking death. and you kn

. >> neil: art, i was talking to congressman dan crenshaw. he's a very big on bringing troops to the border to deal with this drug issue and to take on the cartels directly. mexico's president not remotely keen on that. what do you think of that? >> so that helps. but you still have the immigration problem where the federal agents are the ones that they have the law on their side where they can enforce those laws. what they need to do is individuals coming in to the country, if you catch them bringing in drugs and you know they're bringing in drugs, we need to get on the prosecutors so they can prosecute them. a lot of times the agents when they apprehend individuals, with drugs coming in, people don't know this. but they have to go through a bunch of loops. they have to get admissions and all kinds of things in order or the the prosecutors to go on the prosecution. many of these individuals are apprehended will come back and say they fail to meet prosecution guidelines and get released anyway. you need to crack down on these drug dealings, c
