rich edson is in la jolla, texas, following the very latest. what is the influx like today?h. >> reporter: good afternoon, eric. what you've got today is a very typical day according to border patrol, folks crossing the rio grande river which is about a mile from where we are, they're intercepted here, and that's where they're been i waiting since this morning. you've had department of homeland security buses taking these folks to processing and facilities over the last several hours. this is a scene that is repeated on a daily basis here in the rio grande valley. a 242% increase in this particular sector at this point in the fiscal year compared to the last fiscal year. of course, the last fiscal year did also include the beginning of the covid-19 pandemic. also as part of this, and you mentioned this, you've got a 20-year high in unaccompanied minor if apprehensions, 19,000 in march alone. texas officials say that they are now dealing with accusations and complaints of possible sexual assault. department of health and human services is now commenting on this. they're runni

with fox news rich edson, we were doing live hits for something that was happening as far as policy was concerned, and a mentally disturbed woman had done almost the exact same thing and, you know, these things are happening and we do certainly want to know what your thought is on what more can be done. >> you know, sadly, not much. these barriers, like you mentioned, with the woman from 2018, the barriers that stopped this vehicle today, i believe, were installed around the same time, as we can see , they're highly effective at what they were supposed to do which is prevent a vehicle from making it any further towards the capitol, towards the critical zone. again, these are the ones, liz, that keep law enforcement, the intelligence community, the military up at night, so like i said and not to be redundant, the low caltech one- off attack doesn't require planning, it doesn't require communication, chatter, things that can intercept. this might have gotten the idea to do this 20 minutes prior, and unless, you know, it's not that old tom cruz movie minority report, you really can't get i

edson tells us many progressive democrats are furious.fficials in agents of the southwest border say they expect this migrant surge to grow to reduce that flow. the white house announced monday that the administration had recently obtained commitments from central governments and mexico. we've secured agreements for them support more troops on their own border, mexico, honduras and guatemala have all agreed to do this. however, diplomats in those countries say the additional security is the result of their own initiatives, and not the result of an agreement with the biden administration. way never described it as a formal declaration or a formal agreement, but additional steps that they were taking to increase personnel of the border. one republican charges that the white house misled the public to manufacture headlines of diplomatic progress. i don't believe this is genuine or honest in any way shape reform just is the white. house announced it's reversing its pledge to welcome more refugees. in the u. s. this year, a group of three doze

stuart: rich edson on the border. thank you, rich.l council. i will read you exact quote. we quite hire what she said in the mask on. we're looking for need of resilience in the face of extreme climate. we're looking the northern triangle countries and what the severe climate experience has done to them. what is your response to that? >> that statement is laughable. thank goodness there are people like you willing to fact check what she says. the fact remains that climate has not changed in the northern triangle countries for the exact several years t was exact same as it was under the trump administration yet we hit 45-year lows in illegal immigration under donald trump. what they're doing looking for excuses to blame for their inept policies that are allowing these, the surge to take place right now. climate is going to be an excuse for everything. when you don't have answers for the problems that you created. stuart: it is an excuse. it is a diversion. that is just my opinion, brandon. that is where i stand. vice president is going

rich edson makes a good point.vor of sending mexican troops or having mexican troops go to the southern border and protect there, why not just reimplement president trump's remain in mexico plan so we can evaluate their asylum claims while they're in mexico? >> you know, first of all i welcome to one of the cities i represent, la jolla down there. i want to welcome them. there are ways to address this issue. the reason i think the biden administration said was they didn't want to implement or the reason they got rid of mpp because they were worried about the safety of those individuals. you know, you can use the u.n. in so many ways. the u.n. can be used to provide safety for the individuals. we use that all over the country. so there are ways that the mpp could be repurposed in a safe way if they were concerned. just like my understanding is there is some agreement between guatemala and mexico and the united states. if you notice el salvador was not included in that agreement. they cut off those agreements. now th

. >> sandra: we will speak with marsha blackburn of tennessee, but first to rich edson, live from thenvestigations, some are calling for john kerry to resign. this is the result of a leaks conversation with the iranian foreign minister reported in "the new york times." he claims he was astonished when the former secretary of state told him that israel had attacked iranian forces in syria at least 200 times. fox has not confirmed the audio and it's unclear who leaked it, but the congressman who is the top republican says "i already had significant concerns about secretary carrie serving, but reportedly relaying sensitive information to the state sponsor is just unfathomable." the state department refuses to comment on the reported audio, though points out the government has publicly confirmed the information that they said he shared with them. the state department spokesman said those strikes were no secret, though there is no reporting on if they mention when he told him this information. his response, he tweeted "i can tell you this story and these allegations are unequivocally false
