regulation killing of a 12-year-old girl in houston both enter the u.s. illegally, more on that in moments. and all charges dropped against dozens of pro-palestinian protesters at columbia university. robbery men's and shear like -- are to discuss. meantime chantelle mayor of crime-ridden oakland no facing a recall on november's ballot. to make -- committee organizers garnering nearly double the required number of signatures needed. and this... >> recall that the death of america and >> is really emotional. >> jonathan: could governor burgum' staires could be why he's not picked at bb got more on this and -- but first a big debate we match is now just one week away and will -- wearing today that donald trump will be getting the final word. senior national -- national correspondent kevin hogg is live with what we can expect, fireworks would think. good evening. >> indeed, would be with you. president biden and transcends her to make history on the 2727th of june first financial debate between an incumbent and a former president. pretty incredible when you think about it. it will also be the very first debate for the two men since 2020, who knew? and the old adage, you know, "its economy, stupid," once they got once again while former president compton is solidly prediction to do -- with nearly, wait for it, seven in ten americans calling the economy only fair are poor right now under the biden administration. by the way what's more nearly six in ten 56%, say they are overly pessimistic about the economy under president biden. meantime i had of the big showdown the president will retreat to camp david for, you know, debate prep while the former president will conduct a big rally over in the city of brotherly love, philadelphia, over the and speaking of the former president will also get the final word at the debate and jonathan pointed out what president biden who actually won the coin flip will get to stand screen right by choice. and just when you thought things couldn't get any stranger, jonathan, in polling, usually as you know the economy top the list of concerns for most vot voters, well not so according to the latest fox news survey. large number of americans apparently are more concerned with the "future of democracy." elsewhere, others say stability tops the list of concerns over other hot button issues like immigration. again going to listen -- with a survey. this is the former president,'s his big lead in several states, in fact, arguably the states they will decide this election, noting that yes, he still leaves mr biden in all seven swing states. jonathan? >> trace: >> jonathan: kevin koe thank you, it will be a net. list begin fox news' on democracy 24 debate with steamboat institute fellow kaylee maggie white and former chief council for the house judiciary committee, julian epstein. good valuables. julio and let me start with you, hopes and fears that i think we all know what democrats fear the most next thursday which is a faltering president biden rather than the state of the union style president biden but what are the best hopes democrats next week, julian? >> jonathan, good to see you again, kind for having me. i think the best hope for the democrats and president biden is he's got two major issues obviously. you get the michael kovrig this question and he's got the economic performance and his performance on the issues. on the mental fitness question i think what democrats would hope is that he keeps his answers short. most of biden's problems when he meanders any sort of goes off and he's forgetful about world leaders -- make longer speeches, keep your answers short and to the point. on the second question of economic record, about her don't really like what joe biden has -- excelling, didn't like what he's selling on the economy got on foreign affairs and on foolish -- social -- issues like crime immigration and what training has been so far doing is what i think doubling down on stupid thing voters just don't understand how the location -- motors don't care about limitation to care about results, you don't like the results. but what tried -- biden should do is say i will give it to the senate p. but to the senate on the economy, on crime immigration -- there are a lot of ways you can do it, that's what i would like to see, that i think is his best chance, is behind in the selection right now, clearly. >> will see if he takes your excellent advice. kaylee captain nicole -- and my question to you, hopes and dreams -- i'm assuming republican don't want to see a vengeful backward looking former president trump, they want to look -- they want to see a forward-looking lessee driven president content without before? >> absolutely, the worst thing that trump can due for himself at that point is to give democrats what they want witches who make this election all about him. donald trump, the man or mike gambino joe biden is going to do this. we know he's going to bring up the fact that trump is now a convicted felon. we know that joe biden will bring up the january 6 capital right. you name it. we'll continue to do is remain focused on as you mentioned the policy, the issues where he does have the advantage among key demographics like hispanics, a growing number of black voters got a growing number of young voters and a growing number of suburban women voters chemicals are the demographics that he has to appeal to in this debate. you even more than biden's mental fitness, you know, my response to this it just let biden talk. the man is going to show the public what is really going on inside his head and if you just let him talk he'll do that work for you. if trump remains focused and on direction, and it's going to be a good night for him. >> jonathan: julian, want to bring fox news poll that we recently that on what matters most to voters whether it's issues and who can do a better job, 59% or respondents said that that is indeed their biggest concern, i think we can pop the graphic operator, or character in the fitness to serve. twenty-nine% and yet the poll that kevin was just showing us said that 68% of the biggest figure are concerned about the future of democracy which seems to go more to the character and fitness to serve. which are those if it is going to be one of them decides this election in your view, julian? >> lupina question of democracy rise in the numbers. is mostly spent along partisan lines. a lot of republican don't like for example law firm -- so that's not a clear and exact -- of damage for -- what is a clear advantage for trump i think as kaylee is pointing out is if trump simply asked a question are you better off than you are for career to go and when you look at all of the major policy issues, trump and republicans are ahead by double digits and sometimes on issues like immigration as much as 20 or 30 points. biden wants to train the meat in terms of a question of character. if trump is smart he will remain in terms of results. would have been the results in the last four careers. i think that is advantage trump if trump can do that and that's what i think it's so critical for the democrats not julian 21 in the last four years because voters don't like it but to say, hey, we hear your message, we're going to give it to the center on a whole series of issues in there many ways they can do that. >> jonathan: interesting. kaylee kapelos where do you have is next thursday night make or break for this campaign? >> i think there's a lot yet to be determined between no and then. we have a second debate supposedly." see if it ends up happening your magma certainly whoever has the best performance is going to see their own bump in the polls and i will just respond quickly to the point about working whether biden would even be able to make a pivot back to the center. keep in mind that biden ran his 2020 campaign on the promise to be the moderate, to be the more normal candidates and he lied to the american people. are kind and have to do is point that out at the point out the policies that biden lied to the american public about and to show that there is no going back to the center because biden has -- is far gone. >> jonathan: kaylee, julian, winnett avenue two perspectives there, it's going to be a fascinating night that is for sure. kaylee, julian, thank you so much. working tonight fox news has learned that the two men charged with the spanglish and killing of a 12-year-old girl in houston both enter the u.s. illegally. christina coleman is here live with the latest on the migraine crime racist good evening. >> good evening, jonathan, yesternight we have updates on three violent crimes allegedly committed by illegal migrants and i want to warn you the details are very disturbing. first of the arrest of two men suspected of strangling a 12-year-old girl to death in houston, then dumping her body in a swamp. dhs -- sources tell our bill melugin and jenkins told -- both suspects are venezuelan migrants were caught and released by border patrol this year. twenty-six old franklin josé peña ramos was caught after illegally rushing in to a part of this last month and released in to the u.s. with a notice to appear. the other man, 821-year-old venezuelan, was caught in march and release with a gps tracker there was only sent to monitor his whereabouts for 21 days. equity to the new york post. now both stand charged with the capital murder of jocelyn and -- floating in the creek on monday. in new york and ecuadorian migrant is being held without bail after his arrest for the rape of a 13-year-old girl. local reportedly pretty 5-year-old christian giovanni england he admitted in court yesterday to assaulting the girl at a park in queens in broad daylight. x. conforming to faksa night that landi was previously caught crossing the border in 2021 and was released with a notice to appear. he was ordered deported in 2022, that obviously didn't happen and in maryland, ice confirm the suspect in the rape and murder of rachel morin was a still -- calvary and megan who had been caught by border patrol and sent back to mexico three times in less than a single month last year mickey was finally able to evade authorities and sneak across the border and -- in february of 2023 making him a known got away, he's currently being held in the harford county jail pending trial. very disturbing, jonathan. >> jonathan: indeed. christina, thank you so much. for more an issue illegal immigrant crime is bringing new york post reporter jenny taylor and republican congressional candidate in the grand canyon state great marxist. thank you both for being here. if i can get you first for your -- i imagined that community outreach at the mortar of -- murder of this 12-year-old by these two illegal immigrants is probable there. >> yeah, absolutely. and you can imagine, you know, just every part of this story is just a horrific all the details about what happened to this young girl who was just 12 years old. i mean, she was just living at home and, you know, unfortunately snuck out of the house. her mom didn't know and she ended up with these two men who were seen in surveillance video accompanying her in to a convenience store in the later accompanying her onto a bridge where she was found under, floating in the water and unfortunately, a good samaritan had seen this but, you know, the tragedy is unfortunately the results of the situation at our southern border. these two individuals came across as very recently, what in march that one may and the one that came in march we just learned actually that they were put in to a tracking program and they were taken out of that program your mind the other one was put in a tracking program is for 21 days. where is that? and, you know, i think that a lot of border patrol sources that i have talked to tell me that the markham people should know that this is just a system of distrust, that they don't know what they don't know about people. >> jonathan: right. and, lake, we could get some people saying when we look at these kind of crimes well there are many more rapes and murders committed by u.s. citizens but there is an emotional difference, is there not when these kind of horrific crimes are committed by somebody who has no right, to be in this country, they have entered illegally. it is different. >> obviously it is different. every crime is a crime by definition, and by but joe biden has got blood on his hands when he opened up a border, he surrenders our national serenity as he welcomes 10-12 million illegals coming in as president trump set a few years ago, these countries are not always sending their best people right, you got ecuadorian began bangers, you've got venezuelan coming in motoring kids, you know, i got four boys, many folks walking today about kids and grandkids too. our children, or american kids are not the government actually because biden and emma greco open or border imported the third world and many import the third world you start to look a lot more like the third world and kids are dying and it's joe biden's fault, i'm sick of it, british or american execute -- if i need to get credit in the white house and ashley gets a border security back again. >> jonathan: and jenny, blake mentions that -- the unknown comments by resident trump in the 2016 campaign sending their repairs and murderers. he was grandly criticized for that and, of course, that was a sweeping generalization, there are good people simply trying to seek asylum but he was not factually incorrect, that i had been born out the witness and murderers are among those who have floated across the border in the last four queers. >> exactly and unfortunately we've seen just too many headlights within the last week whether it's the unfortunate and tragic murder of rachel morin, a mother out of maryland by american from el salvador who came into this country work at times. we have another individual who is from ecuador who came across the border illegally and was ordered removed and after that he allegedly raped a 13-year-old girl and another 13-year-old boy was witness to it in a box park. we have this tragic murder of laken riley at least -- list goes on and on and on and unfortunately is expected to continue not only that but there are other threats coming across the border that the fbi has even warned about which is the threat of potential terrorist attacks permit you had eight individuals who are said to be tied to isis from tajikistan who was just not in philadelphia, la and new york. >> jonathan: yeah. and, blake, i hear the anger in your voice. looking forward, the. if we do get a future president trump, how quickly do you believe that the policies of president biden that you're so angry about can be unwound and that border can be secured you marked at least to some extent. >> and start on the one that right -- trump we just executor order we implement the wheat policies that he has, help is on the way he can start regularly taken take some time to undo the damage but we need to deport millions of illegals under trump -- -- if you don't is of illegal aliens and finish the wall we're not going to help the country anymore. >> jonathan: brick -- mcmasters, denny taylor, thank you for your reporting in houston. thank you. we have dramatic new buddy cam video tonight of the moments when three sheriff deputies were shot in a rural community west of chicago. chandler's liability till tonight. good evening, ken lee. >> let not your heart be troubled those officers showing immense bravery in the myth of the treacherous situation as they confronted a heavily armed suspect, 22-year-old jonathan kay narez, on june 12th, after his mother called 911 seeing her fun was threatening to kill himself and others in the home hours of an intense standoff ensued between law enforcement and hostage negotiators attempting dozens of times to contact the man but it was left to the emergency response team to handle the threats. this stunning body cam video shows those officers being met immediately with a barrage of gunfire as they reached the front of the ho home. >> the suspect, jonathan degeneres, 32, was located inside the front door of the residence with a gunshot wound to his stomach, located near or -- were multiple firearms, a knife, pepper spray additionally, he was wearing ballistic armour. >> three officers were shot during the encounter. one in the arm, one in the body -- and his body armour and one in the face. that deputy rushed into surgery where he was later released from the hospital as his fellow officers -- he was going to do and several charges including attempted first-degree murder and unfortunately officers shot in the line of duty happens far too often permit a donor -- fraternal order of police reported nearly 2,000,080 officers shot last year. the highest murder the fob has ever recorded but thankfully, jonathan, in this instance all three officers survived. >> thank goodness for that, chanley, thank you. not get some expert legal analysis not from criminal defense attorney and federal liquidator -- litigator -- whenever we see these body cam videos there's always questions asked of worthy officers acting within their rules of engagement, the legal authority. this case it seems unquestionable believe nothing wrong here fairly accurate copy according to their training. is that your view? >> absolutely this is a case where there's a call for help on -- what we call this an illegal arena of law enforcement and defense as --'s suicide by cop. know sometimes they're individuals that want to take their own lives and then there are others who say well i'm going to have a police officer shoot me and in that mix i may take a police officer' life. this is another example like we've talked about before of serious mental illness in the united states of america, much less i can issue much more psychological overstating issue with people that may or may not have the correct treatment. the officers in this case acted appropriately, everything i reviewed in the body warn cameras says they were adequate warnings given before there was a potential breach. the barrage of fire, the gunfire that came to law enforcement officers way, was immediate which means it was premeditated. >> jonathan: a couple of other thing i want to get too quickly. sheng thao was there -- was the mayor of oakland, crime-ridden city, missing a recall now but now improperly connected to her raided by the fbi. what do we read into that. spewing if you read between the lines and i've handled quite a few public corruption investigations in my life, we have to look at 2020 when there was an ethics commission investigation on the mayor and i was taking money from a recycling company had given through straw donors in an illegal way. when we see the fbi moving in on investigation like this and walking out with white boxes full of material -- is much like a public corruption case, the alternative are alternate residents was clearly something connected. i believe there's a significant other in this case that may be imbricated as well. >> jonathan: immunity decision from the supreme court on president trump coming up which waited ago, report? i believe it goes on the side of giving more immunity to precedents when they commit acts in their official capacity. to do anything else would be to rewrite history and cause a lot of danger in the fut future. >> jonathan: great. see you in the. >> everyone: nightcap," coming up dozens of -- who barricaded themselves in a building in columbia university. what does that say about how we are dealing with anti-semitism on college campuses? more, next. >> ♪ ♪ >> change outcomes, change organizations
