Immigrant, gang member and twotime convicted drunk driver in the death of officer ron singh. The sheriff of stanislaus city also confirming the arrest of two others who tried to cover up the whereabouts of national gusz arriaga. The sheriff also throwing gasoline on the already hot immigration debate, when he said it, and quote, you cannot ignore the fact that this could have been preventable based on his prior dui and outstanding active warrants. Law enforcement would have been prevented from sharing that information with i. C. E. For those supporting the bill that would have prevented his deportation based on those prayers. He was stopped wednesday morning, and do you see some photos of him there. He came to the u. S. Illegally from fiji and he was married with a 5yearold son. That photo was taken christmas day. Hours later, he pulled over a gray pickup truck for no plates, and radioed in short time later, shots fired, and hit. He let later died. Singh joined the Newman Police department 11 years ago and was part of a family, not just a department. He worked with his k9 partner, sam, and narcotics. The suspect lived at a local trailer park and was a farm worker. He entered illegally but we dont know the year. Just last week in the neighboring county, the sheriff complained that he had to let a guy out and could not call i. C. E. Hours later that man went on a crime spree and killed too. Obviously with the situation and the National Attention it has gotten from the president and others, this will enter the immigration debate over Border Security. So we now know that the suspect, i can tell you, entered our country through our southern border in arizona. Thats part of the reason why Arizona Republican congresswoman debbie lets go says major changes really need to be made. She is living it every day there in her home community. Good to have you there. What is your reaction to all of this and to the latest comments . Its a very sad situation that an officer had to die at the hands of any legal immigrants. Its just an example of why we need to secure the border and change our loose and lax immigration laws. What is it like there where you are in arizona . How do people feel overall about this and what is your concern about the trafficking thats going on right there in your backyard . You know, illegal immigration and stopping it has been the number one issue in arizona for many years and it was this election year, too. Especially in my district. People are compassionate and thats why we have over 1 million immigrants, immigrants here legally. But they want people to follow the laws. They want to know who is coming across the border and they want things done lawfully. That is why when i was in congress, republicans pushed for changing the immigration loophole, so that it is not incentivizing these cartels to exploit children and women. This is a bad problem, and its up to congress to fix it and i really hope that the democrats will come to the table and negotiate because this is about national security. It goes beyond, i think the wall. You need the wall, and i think for various reasons including the symbolism of it. It sends a message to anybody who wants to come here illegall illegally. You shouldnt underestimate that. What you are talking about is something on a bigger level and i think that this is something that everyone in the country, both sides could agree on, which is some major Immigration Reform. And yet the democrats because they are stuck on the wall because, frankly, lets face it. Its a political issue. They dont want anything that this president has promoted as really a signature issue, to seem as though he has succeeded. So because of that they are not moving forward on this meaningful Immigration Reform to get the good people in and keep the bad people out. You are absolutely right. I voted for legislation that i believe was a compromise and it would have funded Border Security and a border fence, but it also would have allowed Daca Recipients to stay here legally and to me, that was a compromise. But not one single democrat voted for it. Last thursday, republicans in the house voted to keep the government open and also included about 1. 5 billion and for Disaster Relief in california and florida. Again, not one single democrat voted for it. Then it goes over to the senate, and because of their 60 vote rule, they need democrat input. While the democrats have just been austin to obstinate. They will not come to the table and its very disheartening. I hope that they do. Now you are in the standoff, and the government is in shutdown mode. How long will that continue . I dont think anybody knows right now. Im back in arizona and i came back last saturday night but i had my bags packed and im ready to go in case a deal is made and we can go back and vote for something thats reasonable. Again, this has been going on for quite some time and in arizona, this is a hugely important issue. Our lax immigration laws are creating incentives for people to come here, for people to bring their children here. I hear you and this is something that really does need to get resolved and its coming to a head. I do want to go to bakersfield, california, because that is where the Kern County Sheriff Donny Youngblood is speaking right now. This is where the man was apprehended. Lets listen in. Giving him sanctuary in the house, any of those people are subject to arrest and we are committed to making those arrests if we can prove that someone helped him. So did those people help transport or i cant tell you exactly what their role is. This is still an active investigation, and i can tell you that we believe that we they were involved in harboring the suspect. We can have copies of this made which would probably better. During the arrest, how many people were in the home . There were five or six people in the home, some i believe may be children. [indistinct question] yes. A number of units were seen going north on 199 with lights on. Did he leave the county on his way north . Im not sure. As of about 45 minutes or an hour ago, he was being interviewed. He was in our handcuffs and they were going to replace them with officer singhs handcuffs and transport him to stanislaus county. Approximately how long was he in kern county . When the sheriff called me last night, they had a pretty good idea that he was in the county. The information was, we believed he was headed to mexico and we wanted to ensure that that did not happen. Because then there was a long process that occurs thats very cumbersome. [indistinct question] i dont have that information, whether this was a gangrelated incident or not, so i wouldnt want to speculate that either way. Were the people in the home related to the suspect, or with a family . They are related in the sense that they know each other but i dont know about the personal relationship. We are still early on in this investigation and this information was just handed to me a few minutes ago so that we could get it out to you as quickly as we could and to be as accurate as we could. How many people were arrested in that home . Three other people were arrested. What were they in the home . Yes. Anybody else . The last thing that i will say to you is, when you use a firearm against a Police Officer, you can run, but you cant hide. This really proves the relationship that we have, not only in this county, and with my partners standing behind me, but throughout the state, that we are committed to providing public safety. And when you attack somebody doing an honorable profession, no stone goes unturned. One more question, is the photo thats out there the arrest photo . I havent seen the photo so i can answer the question. [indistinct question] we do not release arrest photos. I havent seen a photo of him but there is a photo out there. [indistinct question] no i cannot. Any other christians . Thank you all for coming. We were just listening to the Kern County Police sheriff who is answering reporters questions regarding the arrest of that illegal immigrant who killed a Police Officer. He did point out that they arrested him in a home with roughly six people there. Its not clear whether they were family members but they did know each other and he did point out that there were children in that home. That man was said to be making his way back to mexico in hopes of escaping authorities. So a continuing story obviously. We were just speaking to the congresswoman of arizona who said she is aggressively working to get the money for the wall. She feels strongly that they needed there in arizona because they are dealing with an influx of illegal immigrants. Meanwhile, you have politicians all over trying to deal with this. Right now the president says he is not backing down and he needs that money. So he is going to work aggressively and keep the government shut down until he gets it. Lets go to Hillary Vaughn at the white house. The acting white house chief of staff Mick Mulvaney says the democrats are not talking to the president. He said the president put his last offer on the table on saturday but democrats walked away. What we cant understand is the folks who are from heavily democrat areas, they are home and not talking to him. We made an offer saturday night and they got back to us last night and they said, we are leaving. No more discussions. Discussions have broken down and we expect this to go on for a while. Lawmakers were there before dabbling out and going home, but House Minority leader Spokesman Says they have given the white house three different paths to end of the shutdown and the white house is the one that didnt take it. I think its an embarrassment any time the government shut down, and this being no exception. We have to work at it until we get to the agreement where the majority say yes. And i think we had that. I told the president went off his meds and who knows what happened. While the white house waits for a counter offer, the president is threatening to shut down the southern border and call off trade agreements with mexico tweeting i would consider closing the southern border a profit operation. We bring the car industry back to the United States where it belongs, and either we build and finish the wall or we close the border. The white house says the president canceled his christmas and new years holiday and has been at the white house making calls and is doing work but most of the congress is out of office and some, like nancy pelosi, are on vacation in hawaii. Trish . Must be nice. Something we havent seen for stocks in quite a while, not a whole lot of grain for the whit white. Did we just get news out of china which could be a green light for buying . Plus more than 4,000 flight delays reported as Severe Weather strikes. If you are heading somewhere or heading home, we have what you need to know. Dont go anywhere. Liberty. Liberty. Liberty. Liberty. And then, more jobs robegan to appear. What started with one job spread all around. Because each job in energy creates many more in this town. Ive always been amazed and still going for my best, even though i live with a higher risk of stroke due to afib not caused by a heart valve problem. So if theres a better treatment than warfarin. I want that too. Eliquis. Eliquis is proven to reduce stroke risk better than warfarin. Plus has significantly less major bleeding than warfarin. Eliquis is fdaapproved and has both. Whats next . Reeling in a nice one. Dont stop taking eliquis unless your doctor tells you to, as stopping increases your risk of having a stroke. Eliquis can cause serious and in rare cases fatal bleeding. Dont take eliquis if you have an artificial heart valve or abnormal bleeding. While taking eliquis, you may bruise more easily and it may take longer than usual for any bleeding to stop. Seek immediate medical care for sudden sign of bleeding, like unusual bruising. Eliquis may increase your bleeding risk if you take certain medicines. Tell your doctor about all planned medical or dental procedures. Eliquis, the number one cardiologistprescribed blood thinner. Ask your doctor if eliquis is whats next for you. Trish heres something we havent seen in a while, some good news. A positive week for stocks. We like it. The nasdaq and s p 500 up after a wild and volatile week of trading. Its all coming out with china allowing u. S. Rice imports for the first time ever. Maybe a bit of a thaw in those trade tensions. Could that get stocks back on track as we head into the new year . We are watch, asking our market watchers. Good to see you all. Jim, starting with you, what are you thinking. But lets not forget the economic fundamentals are pretty good. Economic fundamentals are pretty good. Things are going pretty smoothly there and retail spending is on the upswing after many years of doing nothing. Business spending is still pretty good, with coincident economic indicators, all pretty strong. So the economy is doing pretty good, we will probably have a 2. 4 gdp quarter which is not as strong as the first six months, but its still a pretty good quarter. And we are going to have the end of tax selling, which is now officially what we have maybe another half day, but its pretty much over now. Is that what some of the reasons we have seen this downside . And people held them over two or three years and, they were having Capital Gains where the market wasnt doing anything. So we had some tax offset. Then you overlay that with the fed that pretty much fit the bed and many peoples eyes when they came out for the december meeting, and the press conference which didnt help either. We have what seems to be a presidency that seems to be more unpredictable than we thought in the first place. Trish let me get over to alan for a second because jim just brought up the fed. Heres what i would say about that. Sometimes there is too much of a concern or focus on the fed, but if our economy is strong and we are doing well, i think we can handle a quarter point. It may not be ideal but we can handle it. What i dont think we can handle is Maxine Waters going after all the banks as she has promised she will. We dont want to hear more of this rhetoric from the likes of nancy pelosi and we dont want more investigations that are on the road to nowhere, but that is what we are going to get. But could the house a change ie leadership affect the markets . I focus more on price than politics which is hard to do these days. We made new lows and made a higher weekly close so thats positive. And we are 7 off that bottom. Higher interest rates, we are at extremely low levels at 2. 5 . Trish you are not worried about the quarterpoint move here or a quarterpoint move there . No. I think that issue could be set aside and we could focus on whats important. We are looking for about a 14 earnings growth. So who wants to complain about that . Theres a lot of fundamental Economic Growth going on and it looks like we will continue to see a rise in quarterly earnings. So why is everybody breaking out . Everyone is freaking out probably by the reasons you mentioned. The democrats are taking over the house in january so are they getting rid of the tax cuts in place for regulation . I think the market is scared about that. Im still bullish in the market for 2019, but you see a lot of selling for many, many reasons. I definitely think that people are taking profits or selling out of their losers because they dont know what to anticipate with 2018. Long term, i do believe that the market makes brandnew longterm highs again, but i called in a new years eve rally. We fallen off so much in the last two weeks that we will not even come back neutral before where we started and opened on the year which was about 24,800 for the bout mike dowell. The market is trying, but we are really running out of time. Trish i commend you for watching the show and thank you so much for commending my opinion. Good to see you, thank you so much. Blizzards, flooding, freezing rain, you name it and its all out there. We will catch you up on this crazy weather, stay here. Trish oh, my gosh, this is not good. We are learning that there are already 5700 flight delays right now so if you are going anywhere this weekend, flying anywhere this weekend, it could be challenging. Wild weather is going on throughout the country right now and rick is here to give us an update on all of it. So it gets a little bit better this weekend but today was rough, yesterday was really bad. The cold air has settled in behind this storm with abrupt blizzard conditions across parts of the Northern Plains and its really warm across the east with a warmer side to the storm. Temperatures have dropped here as you can see since yesterday, 26 degrees cooler in kansas city than we were 24 hours ago. New york citys 18 degrees warmer than it was 24 hours ago and thats all part of the stor storm. Big delays in airports, and the roads have had lots of problems with flooding. We had over 11 inches of rain overnight in louisiana and its a very slow moving storm with a lot of moisture. That combination remains for flooding as well as all of the rain that we have seen this year. Atlanta is now the second rainiest year weve ever had, and, heres how this plays out. This moves on through for the most part overnight tonight and we are also watching a week storm across parts of new mexico. Blizzard warnings in albuquerque right now but take a look at what comes over the weekend. We see this continued flow of moisture across parts of the southeast, so a very gloomy one. Anywhere north of the tennessee valley, you are okay. The pacific northwest, more moisture comes in. Take a look at where we are windshield wise, thats really cold canadian air and sometimes you think that will invite across a lot of the u. S. , rho it retreats and we get those temperatures going back a little bit better. One last thing, times square new years eve is not a cold one this year. Temperatures into the mid 40s and rain, which will feel cold if you are standing out there for that long. At least its not below whatever. And some travelers will be heading to times square for new years eve where new york city is getting ready for a crowd of 2 million people. Fox news obrien janne joins us right now with more on how the city is preparing for it all. The new yorks Police Department spends all your training and preparing for new new years eve here in times square and here on monday night, some 2 million spectators w
