Arthel the crisis at the southern border it just keeps growing for customs and Border Protection releasing the august numbers yesterday and they show migrant encounters at an alltime high with Border Cities already over and overwhelmed. Griffin jenkins is alive in eagle pass, texas the mayor declared a State Of Emergency this week or this is one of the cities that is overrun what more can you tell us . Quickset is right. Good Afternoon Arthel put eagle pass at texas has become ground zero. Read more than seven or 50 migrants pass right by our cameras today. But i want to get our viewers right to the fox of flight team up with the drone in the sky pretty see a unique situation we have not seen it yet in the past several days that is a bit of a standoff, arthel but we are looking at the little boats the rubber boats in the river. This is the rio grande separating eagle pass and on the mexican side on the top of your screen the u. S. Side and the island in the middle between mexico and the u. S. A group of migrants about 60 or 70 of them have been trying to cross for the better part of the last two hours. What you are actually seeing at the National Debt struck the Texas National guard in these small boats telling the migrants to turn back. To go back to mexico. We have not seen that so far in the past few days it. We have seen a constant stream of migrants coming across a brief look at our screen you see the Three Robert Boats of Texas National guard. Thats part of Texas Governor greg abbott operation at lone star that began in the spring of 2021 back when the migrant surgeon started Texas Governor greg abbott putting the matters into his own man wanting out to deter the mark migrants he put miles of dense dangerous rays aware that that would deter the migrants from coming. It has not worked. They keep coming this im getting stuck, some getting injured because many of them most of them action in this area are venezuelan believe if they can just get a cross they have a good shot at being released into the u. S. They have heard south of the board of the administration has now given temporary protective status to venezuelan migrants which would allow them to stay for upwards of 18 months without fear of being deported their Asylum Claims play out spring at their being released with notices to appear they can be years down the road for a backlog that is building every single day. We are just watching to see what will happen and whether or not these migrants will ultimately be allowed to cross. The Border Patrol by the way has not done this sort of deterrent trying to get active in the river and push them back. That is just so far the Texas National guard. It is a situation here that has become very difficult. There is a snapshot we are really getting to see the center of this humanitarian crisis. It is upwards of 100 degrees out here. It is hot. Most migrants fled their countries in search of better lives and jobs. They have been going for many cases and at months. Some come through the jungle between colombia and panama all the way through mexico appear. We do have sources tell us there are more migrants in large numbers on the way for the situation youre seeing play out is going to continue. Meanwhile, arthel in a Secretary Mayorkas is visiting over the border and mccown woman get information will give it to you. Arthel you have been to the border countless times we have been covering for more than two years now. What stands out . Is there something that strikes you as different this time, griff . Once you know im so glad you asked that question, arthel. I think for the first time we are seeing a Border Patrol agents that have been here for more than two years almost at a Breaking Point. Many tell me privately off camera they feel so demoralized their overworked, overwhelmed and they are fearful the government may shut down and will be forced to go at the beginning of october without a paycheck and stuck in the middle of the five alarm fire if you will. It is very much a real concern the Border Patrol agents on the line here on the front lines if you will could be reaching a Breaking Point and that is not good at all, arthel. Arthel Griffith Jenkins alive for them from the border thank you very much. Eric we contingency the astounding scene and washington The White House refusing to accept blame for the Record Number of migrants at the border. Instead the administration has been pointing its finger at House Republicans for the spike in the apprehensions because of the lack of legislation on the hill. His life on the hill with much more on this. Eric, good afternoon f from a wet and Windy Washington were lawmakers who not only trying to dodge the rain but also pressured The White House to do more to address the surge of migrants crossing over the border as griff was just showing up it also the same migrants arriving in major cities are nearly a daily basis by The White House says its doing all it can to help. For the president of the images griff was just showing certainly complicate efforts to save the border is secure. The white house is try to shift the blame to the pastor trump administration. The last administration certainly gutted the Immigration System for four years that is what they did. Good speaker at mccarthy and the republicans in congress who continuously, continues to take steps to undermine what is currently happening. Trying to undermine border security. But some democrats think The White House could do more including Robert F Kennedy jr. Who is seeking the democratic president ial nomination. As an oped he says current policies are failing our country and putting in intolerable strain on American City set of arty faced unprecedented challenges in the last three years. We desperately need a different approach but republicans insist they are ready to address the board with new restrictions and more funding for certain programs. But these are ideas The White House may not go with because of what they say its Inhumane Treatment or they may not and necessary griff this plan there is talk the border crisis may further fuel some lawmakers efforts to force a Government Shutdown within a matter of days. Republicans though say it is The White House it still deserves ts the blame. Not only to have all of those problems at the border, but far far inland how it impacts every state. Including as far as you can get away with the Fentanyl Deaths and human trafficking. It is disappointing. That is the worst example of the problems from washington d. C. Right there. The white house is not doing any major Public Events to talk about this as griff mentioned thave home unsecured secretary Alejandro Mayorkas at the border today we are looking to see what news he may break out of that. Also the president is going to be heading west of two border states california and arizona. But at this point we do not expect him to talk about the border during these visits. Eric right thanks so much. Arthel jersey senator rejecting cultures after federal prosecutors charged him and his wife yesterday it was several counts of bribery and conspiracy. Senate majority leader Chuck Schumer said menendez will temporarily step down as chair of the Foreign Relations committee. Alexandria hoff is life in washington. High arthel is the case moves forward he won will be chair but senator menendez can serve on the panel he is not stepping down from the Senate Despite calls from fellow democrats including new Jersey Governor Phil Murphy who stated the alleged facts are so serious they compromise the ability of senator menendez to effectively represent the people of ouion. Yesterday federal prosecutors charged under menendez and his wife nadine with three conspiracy counts for alleged scheme to enrich and protect three new jersey businessmen while also using senators position as chair of the senate Foreign Relations committee to benefit egypts authoritarian governments. That is in exchange for cash and gifts which federal prosecutors say it were found when the couples property was searched. They discovered a proximally 5000 in cash. Stuffed into envelopes and closets. Some of the cash was stuffed in the centers Jacket Pockets for. Prosecutors h said they found over 1000 worth of gold bars and eight mercedes those also allegedly provided to the couple along with other household gifts. Menendez denies all wrongdoing say he feels theres been a rush to judgment because he is latino. Setting those who believe in justice believe in innocence until proven guilty. I intend to continue to fight for the people of new jersey with the same success i have had for the past five decades the senator is expected to appear in Federal Court on wednesday. He was tried it six years ago on unrelated Bribery Charges and was cleared by a hung jury in that. Arthel Alexandria Hoff thank you for that reports. We are just days away from the second republican president ial primary debates. It will be on wednesday night 9 00 p. M. Eastern right on the foxbusiness network. Dana perino, Stuart Varney and Ilia Calderon will be your moderators for this. Six candidates have qualify for this, though they are. Theyve all signed the mandatory rnc pledge to support the eventual nominee. And again a former President Trump who skip the first debate will also not be at this one. Is he is planning to avoid it. Doctor lauren right political scientists at Princeton University but always good to see you. What should we look for . Who should we keep tabs on what you expect will happen . Is a foxbusiness debate im sure the buy plenty of questions on the economy and governors in the mix do it pretty well on those. And so they might have a slight edge there. The harshest way of looking at this right now is it is eight race for Vice President , if trumps lead that is so sizable continues in the polls. If it really is a race for second place or trumps Running Mates then he is probably not going to pick the people who have already worked for him and qualified. So haley, pence pence, chris che on the transition. He is probably traded too many blows with the santos at this point to mend s amend some kindf relationship with him. And so tim scott and Vivek Ramaswamy in the second place race are looking pretty good. I think its still too early to tell aunt ron desantis definitely has more points to put on the board. What is going on with the santos and what is he have to do theres a lot of talk about if it goes down in iowa that could be it. Hes got a good ground game with staff and iowa the same reporting on that that everyone else is he has a lot of overlap with ted cruz a very successful staff there a few years ago. Until maybe he will have a success in these early states and that will propel him forward. But really, do santos could benefit if the conversation turns to co bed who took risks on covid who turned out to be right. You had the longest economic lockdowns, those types of conversations among republicans even tended to benefit desantis it. If he had a headtohead matchup with trump he could certainly nail trump on a lot of those things. Because desantis has a really great record and did it turn out to be right about a lot of things covid policy related. Its also a big might bring up at the ends up debating gavin newsom and a little bit. But. Eric said to be showing up to represent but not on the stage what about nikki haley question what she impressed a lot of people and is reaching out for it seems broader support. I think she is really, really impressive. People are starting to get to know who she is. If she stays in politics in some way, shape, form even if nikki haley is not successful this cycle she could be somewhat republicans will continue to look to in the future to be the leader of the party. It reminds me a little bit of help mitt romney use the 2008 primary process to really familiarize a lot of people with him who werent familiar with him as a governor. Perhaps nikki haley is Getting National recognition now. Even if its not that she will not say when the gop primary all that face time is really valuable and certainly she is got some zingers and pretty solid plot for items for. s before she really went after Vivek Ramaswamy approved you think will be ganged up again you talk about someone who is not well known. Certain he isnt a politician he is a businessman part lets listen to what he has said in the past about his candidacy. Look at the way ive run this campaign, going to the south side of chicago, To Kensington and biddle of philadelphia were traditional publican candidates dont go. We have an opportunity to build a multiethnic workingclass majority to deliver a landslide. Think im the only candidate in this race young or old black or white to bring all those voters along to deliver a 1980 Revelation Pregnancy talked about Ronald Reagan and did he get attention in that debate because it said its business will be in foxbusiness. Besides the governor do you think he will ring from his experience to this debate, how will it affect him . Will everyone else gang up on him again . It probably. It certainly is getting a lot of attention and a lot of fundraising. That makes you a target on one hand. In addition to that a lot of these politicians even of the gop candidates tend to run on Outsider Status they tend to run on a message that is against the mainstream are saying hey this person is a rookie as mike pence says. You cannot just got federal agencies you cannot Fire Hundreds Of Thousands of people and expect americans not to lose Certain Services and turn on a party. There is a lot of resentment there from the more experienced politicians in the group and experience might not be popular as trump said about hilary there is sometimes bad experience. But truthfully it is quite a Learning Curve and to start as president i dont think is g
