griff: i'm griff jenkins in for todd piro.e that the producers put bto's you ain't seen nothing yet. certainly when it comes to the administration's border plan, we haven't seen it. carley: we haven't seen you in a suit and tie for so long because you've been at that time border. it's great to have you back. griff: i think i remember how this works. carley: doing a great job. we're going to start here with a fox news alert. engineers partially freed the ship blocking the suez canal. no timetable exists. from navy ship movements to the supply of toilet paper, fears grow of the international impact to the stop in trade, this as the cost of trade lost every day, the canal is closed, is estimated to be $9.6 billion. with an estimated 400 million being lost every hour. unbelievable. griff: wow. now to the border, president biden has yet to reveal when he might visit migrant facilities as his administration struggles to deal with the crisis. carley: marianne raferty joins us live as we learn that the surge of unaccompanied minors is

griff: turning to the border.cial, deputy chief raul ortiz, i man i've known for many years and interviewed many times, when he says something you can count on it, here's saying he expect to encounter 1 million migrants this year. look at the numbers just in that donna facility, 4100 migrants at capacity and covid rules for 250, that is well over a 700% increase. unbelievable. carley: cameras were allowed for the first time in the donna facility and you saw kids ramped in tight places, 700% capacity. a lot has been made of semantics. what should you call this. one more word into the mix, aoc says it is not a surge. >> what about the surge? just got check, stop. anyone using the term surge around here consciously, to investigate a militaristic frame, these are children and they are not insurgents. we are not being invaded. carley: wasn't it president biden who said he encouraged migrants to quite literally surge the border? that is the word he used and if you remember 100,000 migrants were encountered at the border

griff?ff: pressure is mounting for president biden to take action as a wave of immigrants make their way towards our southern border. christina coleman is live with more, but you're looking there at a shot in mcallen, texas, in the rio grande valley sector, that bus going past that fencing and just over that fence with that bus will go, it will come to a temporary tent facility where the migrants who have crossed the rio grande river are being processed. they're coming peacefully, and they're coming in droves. there was more than 1800 that came yesterday, i'm told the number here in the last 24 hours actually 1500 or so. the entire sector is 310 miles of the rio grande river, but what's fascinating of this shot that tyson's giving us down there in mcallen, texas, is if you just look to the left of this fence here about 50 yards, you will see that that fence stops. and that gap right there along this hill is some 200 plus yards until it gets to the next spot. now, that is a section that was n

we'll be hearing more from griff a little later on this morning.ot of people are he focusing on what griff has been talking about all along, the surge of migrants coming into the u.s. carley: i believe you called him our resident early riser. >> reporter: i have other names for him. he's a great guy. jillian: he's the hardest working man i know. mark, you are as west thank you for joining us. carley: the lack of transparency continues to be a major problem as we you await the promised footage from inside migrant facilities. jillian: lawrence jones says lack of access isn't surprising under president biden but says it's time the media demands some answers. >> this is typical joe biden politics right now. we saw this on the campaign trail, they decided they were going to keep him in a bunker most of the time and not allow us to ask tough questions on the campaign trail. back then, the media gave him a pass. now that he's in office, now he's accountable to the american public and we need to know what's happening. they try to manage this by showing us

griff: it's a start.finally getting to see the biden administration allowing cameras inside as you mentioned and what they saw were migrants stacked wall-to-wall. many unaccompanied children waiting to be processed. the children being housed by the hundreds in these 8 pods what you are essentially looking at formed by plastic dividers, this facility in donna, texas is, simply overrun. listen. the pass city is 250. holding over 4 hundred subjects in this location. we are way over capacity. we are 700 percent over capacity. griff: now the 4100, 3400 of those are unaccompanied minors and 39 of them have been held for at least 15 days. right now 250 to 300 unaccompanied kid are being taken into custody daily and staying an average of five days. now, texas' governor greg abbott writing a letter demanding answers and pleading with vice president harris to head to the border and see it firsthand. he writes: i urge to you visit the border to see the crisis for yourself. and i implore the biden administration to t

but let's begin with griff jenkins on the ground in mission texas so griff, tell what you say you'reing there. >> good afternoon arthel we're just seeing what it looks like as this sort of epicenter of the entire border surge because right here in mission texas part of the rio grand valley they're seeing more traffic than they've seen in a long, long time and let me sort of take you to our drone team in the air -- and you can get a sense really for this situation. where we're standing along a border fence a mielg two miles off the rio grand river that's where so many of the migrants are coming and walking ultimately to peacefully surrender to border patrol to claim asylum some families some unaccompany minors and some are single adults but really the concern of these overwhelming numbers they're seeing that is making officials look at the opportunity cartels have in the distraction of the heavy numbers of crowds to push drugs and narcotics and that's one of the things that montana governor greg jim is quite worried about seeing in his communities miles and miles away from this mexico

fox news correspondent griff griff jenkins is in the great town of el paso with what he is uncoveringreporter: well, dade, good morning to you. those numbers surging are not only shocking the american people, but they're jaw-dropping for the border patrol officials themselves. all across the 2,000 miles of the southwest border between the u.s. and mexico the number of children that are crossing our border is what is really troubling. look at this, 14,000 children in our custody, unaccompanied minors, 9500, and hhs here. and then there are 4500 in the care of cbp. here specifically where i am, el paso, the border patrol chief, gloria johnson, is issuing a statement saying the highest population for the el paso sector is the unaccompanied miners with a 96% increase compared to february 2020. this prompted the d measures s secretary to make his first trip to the border with senators portman, peters, murphy and cap toe. overall, the texas governor greg abbott has decidedded this unacceptable, and here's what he said. watch. >> what we do know is this, the biden administration is unprepare

griff? >> reporter: hey, eric, good afternoon.are here in the rio grande valley sector, mission, texas, part of that. and let me just show you the proximity to which we are to the border. you can see as we come around the wall, a hole in the wall, the levee in the distance about a mile two two miles is the rio grande river. that is ground zero where we see migrant after migrant, as well as some single adults. they are just coming in an overwhelming number that the border patrol agents here can't deal with. and it's not just the officials that are seeing it. residents like emily lord talking about what she's seeing in her area. here's what she said earlier on cavuto. listen. >> it had been fairly quiet and peaceful for, you know, i'd say the last 2-4 years. and overnight there's, you know, smugglers everywhere. your fences are torn down. he's welcome to come down and help us mend a fence and keep our livestock in or help protect my house because now i don't know who's on our property. >> reporter: and, eric, she talked about those

griff: yeah. ainsley, a quick point on that and that is here in laredo, we don't see the family units and unaccompanied minors, there's a lot of traffic and so this sector right here is a heavy narcotics moving through the tractor trailers across the border because heavy traffic and in this area they are seeing 140% spike in the single adults. now the officials here tell me if there's 140% spike in their numbers, that means conservatively there's 140% spike in the profits for the cartels in their criminal activity. brian: good point. i appreciate it. i will check with you again. nancy pelosi came out and said northbound is showing his love of children. is anyone buying that? is it a love of children to let parents feel as though they can give $3,000 to a stranger to bring their kid a thousand miles through treacherous landscape which will put them into a pen without a certain future. that's false hope for kids putting them in unnecessary peril. that's an insulting statement. kevin mccarthy, house

will: griff jenkins is live in mcallen, texas with an exclusive report. good morning, griff.ng mcallen, texas, in the rio grande valley. we're getting signs that the from the administration they need to do something. dhs leader alejandro mayorkas says the border patrol facility is no place for children. he is directing fema to get involved to house an receive the record number of children crossing our southern border. they will help hhs in their facilities. now remember just last month they opened up the facility in donna, texas, along with one in the springs. donna one is not too far from where we are right now, half an hour peace drive. cbs is reporting according to a lawyer they interviewed that went inside of there, that facility is now 729% over its capacity. it was designed for 250 under covid restrictions. they have more than 1800. the total number of children we know cpb has in their custody is in excess of 8100. just an unbelievable, telling point of just a problem. remember the children are only one part of it. now i want to bring you sort of full context. we talked

but first, griff jenkins is live where alejandro mayorkas is today. hi, griff. >> hi, kristin. alejandro mayorkas not making public his schedule or what he's doing right now. i can tell you where we are here in summit park, new mexico west of el paso. things are just surging beyond control. you can see here this is the fence line and just 13 minutes as, kristin, we watched two individuals go across the yard here and then crossed the railroad tracks. the border patrol was in hot pursued. we tried to follow thing to bring that to you live. they're over the tracks down in that valley pursuing them. we didn't want to enter fewer with the border patrol doing their job. it would be nice, by the way, if we could ride along officially as we did under previous administrations. but we're not allowed to. access being denied. we went with a ride-along with rob portman. we talked to him about what he saw and he intended to do with the secretary mayorkas today. here's some of what he said. listen. >> we've been looking at the issues including this huge problem with unaccompanied kids coming

griff, thank you so much.with trump t-shirts. ainsley: then he said if you want me to tell them how to do it -- brian: he would. pete: the playbook is right there if they would be willing to read it. senator tom cotton reacts this morning. senator, you heard griff's report, and i pupil you may have also heard -- presume you may have also heard nancy pelosi yesterday on abc. here's the talking point of the left about the border right now, senator. >> this is a humanitarian challenge to all of us. what the administration has inherited is a broken system at the border, and they are working to correct that in the children's interest. i'm so pleased that the president, as a temporary measure, has sent fema to the border in order to help facilitate the children going from one -- to our issue into where they are carried for as they are transferred into family homes, homes that are safe for them to be. so this, again, is a transition from what was wrong before to what is right. there are many reasons that go into this

>> griff, what is the driver for our side of the border. the border patrol agents don't have time to process notices to appear? >> they are doing that because they are so overwhelmed so people see people getting across. in the big screen of things there is no greater driver or the pull factor than people in their home country seeing success of those that went before them. whether it's m.p.p. or lack of the procedures like you see in the r.g.v. where you cross the river and legally right at that point of contact, the border patrol processes you and puts your fingerprints in a biometric data base, puts you in a bus in the case of mcallen to the bus station and turns you loose to place the onus of getting asylum hearing on the migrant themselves by walking in to an i.c.e. office and scheduling one. how many of those do you think will walk in to an i.c.e. office unannounced and ask for a hearing? officials tell me it would be a very low number. >> sandra: obviously, a really important point in all of this. griff, is it fair to say you are 17 da

griff jenkins. thank you. the white house is still pointing fingers at the trump administration for the border crisis unfolding. former trump administration acting secretary chad wolf is here to react to all of it and then there is this. >> vladimir putin is a hostile foreign actor when we should all be concerned about. now he is literally openly mocking the president of the united states for his own amusement. >> harris: sean hannity's strong words about russian president vladimir putin challenging president biden to a live debate. we'll have a little revolution here next. refiplus from newday usa. it lets you refinance at today's record low rates plus get cash. with mortgage rates low and home values high refiplus can help you lower your rate plus turn your home equity into an average of $50,000. money for security today. money for retirement tomorrow. refiplus from newday usa. if you're 55 and up, t-mobile has plans built just for you. get 2 unlimited lines for only $70. and now get netflix on us with your

steve: griff, thank you very much.need 10 republican senators to go along, and according to the washington post privately republicans are essentially saying you can't get us to support it unless you have border enforcement and you do something about the asylum laws, and the white house is not going to go along with that, because they are en bold en and they got a more liberal democratic congress that want to give the migrants more, not less so it's a stalemate, the republicans want one thing, democrats want something else, but the democrats need 10 republicans and right now they don't have that. ainsley: and nancy pelosi had a sign that said "home is here" and kevin mccarthy said this is the wrong message at the wrong time. that border crisis is intensify ing, but she did have nine republicans join the democrats on legalizing the daca or the dreamers, and then you had seven that went along with them in 2019 so now there are more republicans that are for that as far as the farm work, modernization act, he had 30 republi

"the new york times" and fox news confirmed. the number of unaccompanied children is off the charts. they say the number of children in custody has tripled to over 3,000. many held longer than 72 hours as permitted by law. you had mark morgan talking about the numbers crossing earlier in this hour. congressman dan crenshaw of texas had

griff, good morning to you. griff: good morning, maria, the numbers are startling.os, brownsville, texas, 100 yards to the river and beyond that obviously the city of brownsville but what you're looking into now, what's so stunning, maria, is that this ebb encampment here that houses many migrants over the last 2 years when anyone seeking asylum had to remain in this tent encampment behind the razer wire, we found out just 24 hours ago it closed and most all of the people in here have been let into the united states. you look down the hill you can see mexican immigration officials now just posted outside of the encampment to make sure migrants that are coming don't get into the camp. we spoke to one of those migrants yesterday, a gentleman named mario from honduras. he is one of those trying to seek asylum and get across. he has lived in the united states and deported and trying to get back and he believes the new administration will be more favorable to his cause. have a listen to what he said. >> the president of the united states, biden, help the people because i

jon: griff jenkins live from el paso, texas. griff, thank you.ntime, for all the trump immigration policies president biden has overturned, his administration is quietly continuing one of them. it quickly expels adult undocumented immigrants to mexico without offering due process or access to asylum. the controversial policy aimed at stopping the spread of coronavirus closes the border indefinitely to nonessential travel. david spunt live at the white house with more on that. david. >> reporter: jon, good evening to you. title 42 is only used in certain circumstances. as you mentioned, citing the covid-19 emergency, that health emergency in certain situations the administration could come in and just expel people back to their home countries, though that is not the ultimate goal of this administration. you talk to any administration official that works either here at the white house or in health and human services or at the department of homeland security, they would tell you they want things to be done humanely at the border, those are the words

>> griff, i have to say, i'm impressed the drone isn't blowing away. unlike in mexico, california and arizona, new mexico and california where the wall is right on the border or at least the fence is on the border, in the rio grande valley sector it's not on the border. if a migrant is looking to get feet in the united states and get picked up by the border patrol, wall or not, they can still do it, right? >> that's a great point. let me explain to you, so the entire rio grand valley sector is 310 miles of pure river border. it's just beyond the far levy on the other side. once they come across, john, you can see the wall structure corrals where migrants can possibly go if they're not willingly and peacefully trying to surrender to the border patrol. that's why that they need wall like this. because if someone is trying to move drugs or maybe a person crossing has the criminal record and doesn't want to be apprehended, they go through areas like this. look at this restaurant. he says he sees people sleeping almost every morning. they come there, use hi

steve: griff, thank you very much.dition to -- so as griff detailed there, they may not call it a crisis. mayorkas called it a challenge or something like that. it's a mess and the problem is they invented this mess themselves because they have done their very best to get rid as many of donald trump's actions and executive orders as possible. what's interesting is now they will have so many young people at the southern border, apparently the department of homeland security is going to end the strict vetting of the sponsors and that's how they will get the kids out of the shelters quickly. they will find as many sponsors as they can. hhhs has said, we will pay for transportation and they may also stop asking for social security numbers, ainsley, and brian which would speed things up and perhaps you don't have to be an american to sponsor one of those children. ainsley: they are expecting 117,000 unaccompanied minors that are going to cross the border this year alone. congressman henry cuellar he's a democrat, he's down

griff's new mix ta e, thanks for having me. griff's new mix tape. one — thanks for having me.ime to fine out what is happening where you are. good morning from bbc london, i'm sonia jessop. we've all heard about the imense pressure on nhs staff during the last year. and we've been hearing from fatma, an intensive care nurse working on a covid ward in ealing hospital. she says it's been the hardest year of her life as she's witnessed many people lose their lives. a lot of the patients, they don't know what a ventilator actually is. i've had patients say to me, "oh, am i going to be on it for a day, "or a week?" they see it more of like a cure, but there's not a cure, so... then they'll ask you, "am i going to die?" i can't put a number on it, but i've seen a lot of people die. and you can hear more of fathma's story bbc london later in the day. emergency government funding to support transport for london while passenger numbers remain low is to be rolled over until the 18th of may. £3 billion has already been provided to keep the network running. the current arrangement we due

we saw griff jenkins. i didn't see much social distancing in tijuana, mexico where migrants are waiting for their moment to cross. i think, kayleigh, if you ever re said that donald trump tripped while boarding air force one, because the wind blew him over, i don't know if you would have kept your job after that. >> yeah, i don't think so. we all remember rampgate. that was the slippery ramp where it was a hydroplane moment that was a week-long news cycle. the true explanation was unacceptable to the press and they ran wild with his neurological issues.s. it's incredible what the biden white house can get away with. i'm hopeful thursday, but the press needs to ask the hard questions of him. i'm not saying what are your thoughts on the border. that is h not a sufficient checking of the box question. they need to ask him, you say you blame this on trump. explain to me specifically how this is trump's fault when his numbers came down when he took action in 2019. they have gone up and wearing biden t-shirts, f

hey, griff. >> they sure are, martha.osses this border without the cartel's knowledge. here at this camp, conditions are terrible. they're waiting to cross illegally to get into the u.s. faster. one of the migrants is worried about the dangers if he chooses to go illegal in the cartel's hand. listen. >> might use them for other things. my cell, part of the body or things like that. they might use you to cross drugs or do bad things that i don't want that for my family. >> and the pressures here on this camp is that the businesses and residents are ready for them to go. many of them saying that they feel for their case but they just -- it's not a tenable situation. that's what's going on here, martha. >> martha: thanks, griff jenkins in tijuana, mexico. my next guest is just back from a visit to the border. she says the cartel is embolden by president biden's call for people to come. >> i would in fact make sure that there is -- we immediately surge to the border the people seeking asylum. they deserve to be heard. if you

griff jenkins with more. griff? >> yeah, neil.eaviest here in maccallum and anywhere else in the country. this is a fence that the officials say helped slow the flow to deter the migrants. this is a giant hole in the fence. let's go to the drone camera. i'll show you why they're flowing so much. they come about a mile across the rio grande river, over the levy and through this valley with our fox drone cam over heavy here and cross right down in to some cases into this bar, open area bar. every morning he says he sees my grants sleeping there using his bathroom and shower facilities. he said about two months ago, a woman gave birth shortly after crossing the river. show you some video we showed you yesterday. out four hours. we encountered about four groups and 200 migrants in total. one group had about 75 of them. there were minors, pregnant women. mostly family units. >> the cartels, nothing crosses that river without the blessing of the cartels. the cartel tells these people when to cross, where to cross, how many are crossing.

what i'm excited to get to griff jenkins' reporting. the reporters have been demanding tell the department of homeland security to allow them media access. that hasn't been forthcoming. we were able to get this in a very interesting way. >> bill: during the trump years this was quite common. make a phone call, take you down there, see what you wanted to see. a very different story in the first two months of this administration. >> dana: as the feds restrict media access rob portman let fox news tour the border with him. griff jenkins joined him last night and has been delivering incredible reporting from the border for weeks. let's take a look. >> the residents here in at least the rio grande valley sector of texas where we are say they've never seen anything like it. the rio grande river is where we're seeing an unbelievable number of migrants coming across this sector here in el paso is on fire as well. >> hasn't heard the u.s. president now is not the time to come. >> i listen to the news that they were letting people in. >> does it

griff, good morning. >> good morning to you. that's right. from him. a look, though, we have a drone shot that will take now this river t rio grande river is the u.s. mexico border. brownsville texas and rio grande valley on that side. this camp was open for two years put in place when the trump-era policy remain in mexico kept asylum seekers on this side of the border waiting for their claims to play out. guess what? in the last 24 hours it has closed. most all of the inhabitants inside this camp were allowed to cross into the u.s. and many of them released at that bus station we saw in brownsville. all you are looking at now is the debris and trash within this camp that accrued over two years. the ngo organization doctors without borders calling it inhumane conditions for anyone to live in. many of them families, a lot of children. a very difficult place to spend upwards of two years. we talked to some of the migrants that were still out here that haven't been allowed to cross. one of them is a gentleman named mario with his family here fro

>> that last block of reporting was brilliant but you, john and griff. what is going on here? did we lose out to china because of woke culture? do we care more about that than problems and the threats that china poses? >> yeah, so glad to hear bill say that. this is amazing. everybody is looking to bill. what a crazy word. this is the first time that bill and donald trump are on the same page on anything. we've been talking about it on am 970 on the radio every morning about the threat of china. we have the experts on with gordon chang, peter navarro. this is great that bill is talking about it. it's a threat. by the way, nothing against the great people of china. certainly the chinese americans. these are the communists. bill speaks the truth. >> i want to ask you about the situation with sharon osborne and "the talk." she's gone on hiatus after this -- i see the reaction already. let's listen to this exchange first and then your reaction on the other side. >> i'll ask you again, sheryl. this is a situation here. you tell me where you have heard him say

. >> reporter: the episode featured richard griffin, "professor griff," kicked out of public enemy in-semitic comments. he and nick retread anti-semitic conspiracy theorys and question the birthright of the jewish people. >> the semitic people are black people. >> right. >> you can't be anti-semitic when the semitic -- when we are the semitic people, when we are the same people that you -- who they want to be. >> uh-huh. >> that's our birthright. >> that's our birthright. >> reporter: the reaction was swift and widespread. an buy an ra ham cooper condemned the commentary saying, anyone seeking a ph.d. in jew hatred should watch this interview. explanations and subsequent apologies fell short. nick lost his deal with viacom cbs and stepped away from a daily radio show, an upcoming talk show put on ice. there are reports that you were pressured to apologize in order to keep your job. any truth to that? >> i can answer this wholeheartedly. who pressured me? ultimately i've always said that apologies are empty. >> reporter: for nick his road back meant more than apologies. he sought atone

brian: griff, thanks so much.an't believe anyone would think it is not a crisis when a democrat like congressman cuellar says our country is unprepared to handle a surge in migrants in the middle of this pandemic. i urge the biden administration to work with communities on the southern border. they saw it up close and personal. they will come to a military base near you, in the case of governor ron desantis possibly homestead where they were overrun a couple years ago. this is what he said he observed from florida about the border. >> well i don't know if you heard about the border but it is being overrun again. is that going to hit florida? >> i think it will hit the whole country. biden is opening the border. think how hypocritical it is. he tells the average american you're a neanderthal if you want to live in an open state. he threatened to quarantine my state of florida because so many people wanted to travel here but yet he will let these people go across the border, even people that have covid they're relea

, really, griff?: that's right, ainsley, brian, and steve. good morning. the president says that they are working on a border plan but, perhaps it's a secret one because there is no word on what it is or when it is going to happen. here is what president biden had to say yesterday. >> we are putting in place a plan that i feel very confident about. and i don't care what the other guy does. griff: the other guy is he referring to there is former president trump. the president biden brushing off his plans to visit the border. and as you mentioned, foxconn firming the surge of unaccompanied minor also last at least seven months. the situation is getting so bad, so dire, the biden administration is pretty much begging for help from any government worker wig to volunteer. the office of personnel management, opm, sending a memo to all agency heads reading, in part, quote: the office of refugee resettlement or orr needs further government civilian employees for up to 120-day deployment for unaccompanied chil

griff: that's right, brian, ainsley, lawrence, good morning to you.use minority leader kevin mccarthy and a dozen gop house members one of whom is actually from this area congressman tony gonzalez, they saw it up close firsthand and afterwards we're able to speak with mccarthy, here is some of what he told us, listen. >> the security and safety of americans are the number one issue that a president should have, and these policies that he has changed had made us less safe. griff: this comes as tragedy strikes coming out of our san antonio fox affiliate we learned up to eight or more undocumented immigrants killed in a high speed car crash, along the border. that story under investigation right now, and we've also learned that in dallas, lawrence 's hometown, they are going to open the convention center for up to 3,000 teen male s ages 15-17 with a 90 day contract to start to deal with the surging numbers. here is the thing. when i talk to border patrol agents here yesterday and we were talking about that story they said griff, you have to understand, w

in mission, texas, griff jenkins, fox news. ben: griff, thank you. still to come, a backlash as dr.auci backtracks yet again on a key covid restriction. fauci's latest reversal and the questions it's raising about the science behind it. jillian: welcome back. for the last year we heard the same guidance over and over again, standing six feet apart will help reduce the spread of covid-19. ben: but now dr. anthony fauci is suggesting we could only need half of that space. carley shimkus with fox news headlines 24/7, sirius xm 115 is here to explain. carley: this is a big deal. a new study found no significant difference in coronavirus spreading from six feet of physical distance versus three feet of physical distances. dr. anthony fauci was asked about this study yesterday. take a listen to how he responded. >> studies suggest that three feet is good enough. >> it does indeed -- and that's exactly the point i'm making, chuck, what the cdc wants to do is they want to accumulate data and when the data shows that there is an ability to be three feet n will act accordingly. carley: this i

joining us now from mission, texas is correspondent griff jenkins.lowed you and other reporters to take a look at any of the government facilities housing migrant kids and teenagers? >> they haven't, howie, and i think they're getting tired of me putting in the request, i put in every single day. and it's not just to the child facilities, but we wanted access to talk to the officials, the border patrol chief in the rgv sector, they're not opening up, so much so i had to use a source to leak some photos of a temporary processing site not far from now, with are they first come in contact with the migrants who crossed. howie: it may change. the administration sounds like they're trying to limit a bad news story not only for the administration, but for the country. you've been to the border, do you see a contrast in tone for the unfortunate situation being covered now versus the way it was covered under donald trump? >> well, i do. there was larger media. i haven't seen any other national media since i've been here although i'm not sure they weren't. i'm
