in fact i was able to secure record funding for dhs and i'm asking congress to do more.the 20 years since dhs began, the world has become more interconnected and complicated skin ever and new threats are emerging with incredible advances in technology. many are reassuring but because of you, america is safer, stronger and better prepared to meet whatever threat we face. they are not diminishing. we have you and i know the stress of the job take an incredible toll. every single one of you answers the call every day. it's not hyperbole to suggest your heroes, your patriots. it is a rare commitment to fellow americans, showing the american people how the government works for them, to give them confidence. you represent the best of us. duty, devotion, courage, honor. service before self. it's truly noble. while i'm speaking there are so many people out in the field putting their life at risk as i speak with you. as we commemorate 20 years of this remarkable department and all its key elements, so many i can't mention all of them in one moment, customs and border patrol, cust

let me ask about the dhs detention practices. as you know i lead an investigation of the permanent subcommittee of investigations last year whose findings were deeply disturbing and horrifying. this a bipartisan investigation of senator of wisconsin found female detainees in custody detention and georgia were subjected by a dhs contracted doctor to excessive invasive and often unnecessary gynecological surgical procedures including in some cases without informed consent and in november of last year during the hearing you committed the findings of that investigation. we made a number of recommendations accompanying that investigation expediting and improving the vetting of outside medical providers and dramatically strengthening the procedures by which you ensure that a dhs detainees had the opportunity to consent or not to medical services. what steps have you taken since that investigation? >> senator, thank you. we did indeed review that report as i think you know we closed the facility that was the subject of that investigatio

dhs is the initial assessment of the children and provides biographical information. they fingerprint everyone over 14 years of age. we received this information on a child when they come into our care. >> has there been an instance in which the age verification process has proven that someone claiming to be a child has actually been an adult? >> that has happened and when it happens, we have very strict policies and anyone suspected of an adults that came into the program would be isolated, would not be around children and we would go through steps to verify the age of that individual. >> in the event received intelligence that unaccompanied unaccompanied alien child has been abused by their sponsor, what protocol is in place to alleviate the situation? >> a is done immediately. we refer to local law enforcement, child protective services and other federal entities as appropriate. >> approximately 66% work full-time jobs. the biting demonstration only began to take direction -- corrective action following the publication of this piece. with the administration unaware

he also found time to blast president biden's dhs chief. >> mr.ecretary our borders are not under control. mr. secretary, you are derelict in your duties. i would be derelict to not do something about this. and that's why i have a draft resolution here that i intend to introduce in the coming days that would require the senate to take a vote of no confidence on secretary mayorkas. >> missouri senator josh hawley and mayorkas sparred over child labor which hawley blames on the biden administration's policies. >> kid after kid, child after child, one 1-year-old forced to wash hotel sheets in virginia. kids running milking machines rather in vermont. delivering meals in new york city. scrubbing dishes late at night. all in violation of our country's laws. alfa sill at a timed by your policies. you are taking children from another country and putting them into indentured servitude. >> kyrsten sinema who ran the boston marathon mocked after running away from the democratic party and declaring hellerself an independent weigh nnchtsd put arizona communit

he will have a tough time running for reelection when his secretary of dhs just got impeached.ting the policies of the white house. this would be a huge message t country from enemies domestic as well as across the ocean and we are not doing that. talk to any american family they are concerned about the price of gas and groceries but the safety and security of their family. i'm obligated to go after the secretary. i hope the house would introduce impeachment of him and go through the trial. stuart: mayorkas is doing what president biden wants him to do. they get an appointment at the border, get an appointment at a city for a court date, wait for years, they've got the open borders, they are streaming in and they won, not much they can do until the next election. >> we need to do something about it. president biden wants this. the secretary broke all records. 5 million people across the border illegally under his watch and president biden's watch, 400,000 convicted criminal aliens that need to be deported and they are planning on doing nothing about it, makes our families less

the reality is dhs is working aggressively. the department just started a new coordinated search campaign operation blue lotus, which stopped more than 900 pounds of fentanyl its first week. will have to ask you some questions about that and explore where you are headed with that program. i hope we can work together. i also wanted to note the obvious for our immigration system needs to be changed but especially at a time when our country has a desperate need for workers. we have 11 million unfilled jobs in this country. constantly hear from employers across the board in my home state of illinois about the need for more workers, agricultural workers, healthcare workers and more. some governors are so desperate to hoard increasing any immigration they are now turning to relaxing child labor laws as a solution to the shortages. this is mindless. turning back the clock to the times of upton sinclair juggle is wrong, it is unnecessary when their skilled immigrants ready and willing to fill these jobs. i am heartened and i want to ma

over the next fiscal year dhs plans to offer services to an additional 500 children on the list. the first time in a decade. [applause] it will provide these children and their families access to needed services and support while decreasing the states wait lists for services. one of the most difficult challenges we face right now in the field of social and mental health services are the critical worker shortages that we are seeing across the country. let me be clear there is no bigger challenge in this arena than the workforce and we are competing with 49 other states to try to attract people to these jobs here in illinois. providing more competitive wages to develop and support our workforce is an absolute necessity. for the last several years i've directed state funds toward supporting wage increases for private-sector provider partners including those who work with the department of children and family services. that continues in this budget proposal and an additional $120 million in fy24 budget for the department of human services all hosts us to continue rate increases to ma

i asked if dhs could see his voting machines have had the authority to seize voting machines, and they both said no. now we also know that trump continued to entertain the idea of potentially using federal agencies to seize voting machines all the way up in the immediate run up to january, 6th. but this these new details from our sources about closed door testimony really do give a rare window into what prosecutors are looking at, at least as one part of the investigation into efforts to overturn the election. alright zachary cohen, please keep us posted. thank you. house gop lawmakers are sounding off on the historic indictment of former president donald trump and already discussing plans to investigate manhattan district attorney alvin bragg. cnn chief congressional correspondent manu raju is on the hill. so manu, some lawmakers are calling trump's indictment a political scam and say that brag overstepped here. they were calling him to testify, though before these indictments were unsealed. what more are you hearing now that they have been? yeah, that's right, and we still are hearin

he said dhs is reviewing and needs to continue to review the risk rating 2.0 given the concerns that have been expressed. to me, it sounds as if the methodology for setting flood insurance premiums needs more tweaking than initially expected. from the outside looking in, there seems to be a clear can keys connect between now and thu and the secretary. is fema or khs currently -- dhs currently reviewing the determination of risk, is and if so, can you provide an explanation of what is exactly being reevaluated? >> thank you. so i actually have been in conversation with the secretary's office, and there is no -- they continue to be as supportive of risk rating 2.0 as when he issued the statement on april 1st of 2022 in support of the changes. the only report that i'm aware of underway, the gao is currently reviewing the risk rating 2.0, ask is we're -- and we're cooperating fully with them. and i think that report will be coming out in the next couple of months. >> okay. well, i just, i think you should check with the secretary, because with last week in front of the committee he said

according to border patrol agents and officials in the dhs that i've spoken to. to see that. i spend so much time at the border and to watch the flood gates open and see the people pouring into our country and our dhs and border patrol, in particular, and immigration and custom enforcement officers do not have enough resources to keep up with the flood of people coming in. the human traffickers are making hundreds of billions off moving people, even more than the movement of narcotics, this is all due to biden's chaos, his lawlessness at the border. these policies opened flood gate in mexico, central america and across the globe. we see people coming from as far away as china. think about all of the children and people being trafficked that are also being harmed by this, sold into modern-day slavery and the fentanyl that is killing americans and it is just one problem on top of the other. that is why i wrote, joining the amazing club, awesome sauce for kids and parents. this is a tough topic to talk to even my children about and i wanted to join brave books. let'

but we reflect alternative options and dhs is a good example of this.t with a primary recommendation which may surprise some of you and that is to get rid of the department of homeland security. and maybe that doesn't surprise that many of you but we also play the probabilities. i was an engineer. i try to stay in touch with of the members and we think the odds of that i don't want to bet on them but we also worked what if it doesn't get broken down and we don't mean get rid of the missions. we mean better manage from a national standpoint how american security is protected and american responsiveness is protected you think of fema for instance. and we go through them agency by agency as well including some of the things we think we should be rid of like tsa. it isn't that there shouldn't be security. with the government doesn't need to run that just by way of example and that isn't new to the conservative movement, but i think it is new to a lot of america and we lay out the groundwork for how an incoming team as you heard rick described could begin ex

you look at secretary of state antony blinken joined by dhs secretary mayokas who may step up to the lectern as well talking about what happens when title 42 wipes away. let's watch. see if they have a plan. >> magnitude, the range of drivers, push and pull factors all demand we work together. that's why last summer president biden brought together leaders from nations across the western hemisphere to agree to the los angeles declaration on migration and protection. 21 countries have joined that declaration. the declaration is an acknowledgement of shared responsibility on migration and shared commitment to work together and leverage of partners across government, private sector, humanitarian organizations and multi-lateral organizations all coming together to address this challenge. so let me highlight some of the ways the united states is working with our partners in the region on migration. so to take among other things pressure off our border by giving people alternatives to making a hazardous journey to seek asylum in the united states. fundamentally we work to tackle the root c

let's speak to someone who used to be in the dhs. national security analyst julia keim.in north carolina last year. there was another one in washington state around christmastime. tell us how serious, how widespread, and why this particular focus on power stations. >> so there has been a consistent throughline of some of these attacks which they come from a radicalized right-wing element. there is an almost why that's true. it is anti-government. it is anti-infrastructure, in the sense of how do things work in our society. they want to attack that. the other aspect of it, it is low risk, relatively easy, and what we are starting to see, you know, the threat is coming from outside the perimeter. for someone who worked with critical infrastructure much of my career, your biggest threat is internal and safety features, right? could you protect the wires, protect from an internal threat? now, the threat is drones, drive-by shootings and potentially ieds o r r things t are thrown. you can't safeguard against all of that. >> as i recall with this, the intention of the plotters

let me say one thing, when he says yes, tremendous faith in the men and women at dhs, news here mr.n't have faith in you. the men and women in border patrol don't have faith in him, the men and women in ice don't have face. i had faith in back then. he needs to step up and take the steps he knows to secure the bored. all they have to do is plans from the trump administration. it's not that hard. he supports open borders, that's what this president ran on and does everything the president wants him to do and i'm in new york on lake ontario, just yesterday 8 more migrants died crossing the river. they are dying onlying through the southern border and dying through the northern border and there's no stopping them. griff: tom, you mentioned the -- the faith in the secretary and i covered the ma -- mayorkas hearg and there was one moment with senator ted cruz, he really went after secretary mayorkas and laid out a number of issues and one of the things calling him out on the fact that he's lost the support of his troops. here is senator cruz and mayorkas. >> your testimony subject to per

what i have not seen absent the media is an operational plan from dhs. >> sheriff carr, i want to pick up on that. alejandro mayorkas says that they expect an increase. they acknowledge that. when he says things like they have innovative ways of detention, you know, the other preparations. does that give you any confidence? it sounds like fancy mumbo jumbo that -- if i'm on the other side of the border, it doesn't seem like a deterrent. >> thanks for having us on a. i agree with sheriff dannels. what the secretary is saying is basically alternative modes of detention. that means we're not going to do anything. that means we're going to send you on your way and let you hold up your house or family. there's no solution. nothing concrete that says these people will qualify to be put here or over there. we're just going to play it by ear and cut loose. >> sheriff, i read one border mayor said -- this is a quote -- that he's expressing a massive and under relenting deluge. if they're prepared to call out national guard and other folks to help, shouldn't that be done ahead of this? everyone

they've been going that the whole time, again, dhs is not prepared. they're not doing the right thing that they could do. they need to send asylum officers, immigration judges down there and look at the cases and send the people back that need to go back. because with the numbers that will come across. you can expect a huge amount will get released in the united states and we'll have more chaos. >> neil: art, we're watching a live arrest right now. if you can help me with this process. obviously guard officials nab them. they take them in. they're processed, i guess. then what? >> they go through the process, check and see if they have any past criminal history. if they don't, they're all claiming asylum. they're given court dates and released in the united states. that's the problem. there's no consequences for their actions. everybody knows. they're just going to claim asylum. >> neil: even now, title 42, you're going to adjudicate this on the mexican side. a case like this where someone has come in, it's all on our side of the border. >> correct. s

that we are testing on behalf of dhs.ver the past couple of years, we've provided critical dna testing support to 223 investigations, including more than 100 sectional -- sexual assault and a dozen homicides, based on matches from dna samples collected at the border by customs and border protection. we expect that volume to increase as border crossings increase, and we need your support to continue to process those samples, which, so often, provide the missing piece of the puzzle to solve serious violent crimes that might otherwise go unsolved if we are not able to process those border crossing dna samples. i barely scratched the surface of threats and depth of the threats the american people look to us to protect them from. it's staggering. and i am proud to be here today, representing close to 38,000 men and women of the fbi who work tirelessly and selflessly to meet that challenge every day. thank you for your support of our men and women in helping us carry out that mission, and i am happy to answer any questions that

and now we also know that dh investigating multiple companies tied to th meatpacking industries it'sas on company. in this case too he did come through the border unaccompanied, which means h went through the hands of th government, from hhs, and then was handed over to a sponsor now is that sponsor able t take care of him if he ends up in the situation he says he lives with relative who is charging him rent this is not uncommon when i speak to a lot of immigration attorneys, they say, this is not uncommon in fact, this is how a lot o people - a lot of children who come her on accompanied - have to work and it is easier under u.s immigration law to come in a an unaccompanied child rathe than to come in as an adult or as part of a family, especiall with - restrictions that are still in place. >> - with his parents, they can potentially work legally here. here's the thing, the. outlets a dhs crackdown, and the slaughterhouses fire all these kids this young man needs a job how do we solve for that what happens to him? >> that is such the hard part. i think what people would sa is, look,

the other reason has tremendous faith in the personnel of dhs no he does not.re is he disrespecting the men and women working their butts off every day dealing with the crisis. whether he stood on the white house podium and slandered the men and women of the border patrol he disrespected them. he doesn't have tremendous faith. he is not letting them do the mission. is he not letting them do the job and upholding the oath he took to secure the border. this man lies and lies and lies and he doesn't stop. the worst part of it, steve, he thinks we believe him. it's embarrassing that is a cabinet secretary who lies under oath in congress and lies to the american people every day. it's disgusting. >> steve: well, his boss gave him his marching orders. hey, do what i want you to and obviously he is doing it. here is another soundbite from 60 minutes last night. listen to how he answers how the biden administration essentially they said, yeah, don't come. don't come. don't come. come. watch. >> first weeks in office the biden administration halted deportations for 100

dhs has a primary nation of -- mission of playing defense.we know it is a vital part of the conversation. last year we seized, and at years end, the final calculation was 67,000,008 fentanyl pills. that is the equivalent of 410 million potential deadly doses that we seized in the united states of america. >> i appreciate that is your primary obligation, but i think you keep pressure on those we know, their primary obligation is to secure the border. that would be helpful. my time is up. let me ask a quick question about social media aspects of this. are you having any luck at all with the social media platforms? . . i understand that is secondary you want to stop it from coming in first. want to get, obviously, as you indicated social media platforms are a real scourge for distribute in the stuff. are you having an elect there at all? anne: thank you for this question and it is a critical point for us to discuss today. we view social media as a superhighway of drugs. if i could take a moment it would seem like i am going off social media but
