WE’RE GONNA CHECK IN THE LAST
TIME THE PRESIDENT WENT TO THE
BORDER IN A MOMENT.
TITLE 42 SET TO END LESS THAN A
WEEK FROM TODAY.
HOWEVER, STATES ARE FIGHTING
BACK.
TWO DOZEN REPUBLICAN STATE’S
ATTORNEYS GENERAL ARE LOOKING TO
BLOCK THE END OF THAT PUBLIC
HEALTH IMMIGRATION RESTRICTION.
BORDER AUTHORITIES ESTIMATE IF
TITLE 42 IS LIFTED, WE WILL SEE
18,000 ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS
POURING OVER THE BORDER PER DAY
COMPARED WITH THE CURRENT NUMBER
OF 6,000 PER DAY.
THREE TIMES AS MANY.
A FEDERAL JUDGE IS EXPECTED TO
RULE ON IT ALL THIS WEEK.
TOM HOMAN, FOX NEWS CONTRIBUTOR
AND FORMER ACTING ICE DIRECTOR
IS WITH ME ON SET BECAUSE I’M ON
SOCIAL ASSIGNMENT IN D.C.
SO I GET TO SEE YOU IN PERSON.
IT FEELS LIKE WE’RE RIGHT NEXT
TO THE BORDER.
YOU DON’T HAVE TO BE THERE TO
SEE IT.
WE’RE NOT FAR FROM THE WHITE
HOUSE.
HAVE THEY BLOCKED THEIR WINDOWS?
>> EVERY MONTH THE NUMBERS KEEP
GOING UP.
THEY TALK ABOUT THE SECRETARY.
FOR ONCE WHY DON’T HE TELL THE
BORDER PATROL WHAT THE PLAN IS.
WHAT’S YOUR STRATEGY TO SECURE
THE BORDER?
NOT ONCE IN ANY OF HIS VISITS
HAS HE TOLD THE MEN AND WOMEN
PUTTING THEIR LIVES ON THE LINE
EVERY DAY WHAT THE PLAN IS.
THEY SIMPLY WANT TO KNOW WHAT
THE PLAN IS.
>> Harris: I MENTIONED YOU SEE
THE PROBLEMS FROM HERE IN
WASHINGTON, D.C.
PEOPLE FEEL IT.
THEY’RE TALKING ABOUT IT NOW.
IT’S STARTING TO SHOW UP IN THE
POLLING THAT PEOPLE SAY THEY’RE
CONCERNED ABOUT THIS IN A TOP
FIVE STANCE NEXT TO THE ECONOMY
AND THE OTHER CRISES WE HAVE
NOW.
TALK ABOUT HOW THE LEGALITY CAN
HELP OUT WHAT’S HAPPENING.
THESE JUDGES ARE TAKING ANOTHER
LOOK.
WE SAW A STAY TEMPORARILY ON
TITLE 42 TO GET US PAST MAY
23RD.
>> AS LONG AS THE DEMOCRATS
CONTROL CONGRESS, THAT’S WHAT WE
HAVE.
I HAVE WRITTEN MORE AFFIDAVITS
THAN I DID AS A SPECIAL AGENT IN
34 YEARS.
WE’RE 4-0.
WE’LL KEEP SUING HIM.
I THINK THE JUDGE WILL UPHOLD
TITLE 42.
EVEN WITH TITLE 42 IN PLACE THE
NUMBERS THIS YEAR ARE GONNA BLOW
LAST YEAR’S NUMBERS OUT OF THE
WATER AND LAST YEAR’S NUMBERS
WERE HISTORIC.
>> Harris: TALK ABOUT WHY THAT
HAPPENS EVEN BEFORE TITLE 42.
YOU TOLD ME SOMETHING OFF
CAMERA.
TITLE 42 JUST RECENTLY WASN’T
BEING APPLIED THE WAY IT WAS
SUPPOSED TO ANYWAY.
WE ALREADY SAW AN ENCROACHMENT
TOWARD WHAT DEMOCRATS SAY THEY
WANT.
>> EXACTLY.
UNDER THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION,
EVERYONE WAS EXPELLED.
UNDER THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION,
85% OF FAMILIES WERE LET IN.
UNACCOMPANIED CHILDREN WERE ALL
LET IN.
MANY SINGLE ADULTS THAT DIDN’T
SPEAK SPANISH WERE BROUGHT IN.
THEY’VE NEVER DONE TITLE 42 AT
THE LEVEL THE TRUMP
ADMINISTRATION HAD DONE.
NOW THEY’VE BEEN ORDERED TO
REINSTATE REMAIN THE MEXICO AND
THEY HAVEN’T DONE IT.
I THINK THEY NEED TO HOLD
MAYORKAS IN CONTEMPT OF COURT.
>> Harris: HOLD MAYORKAS IN
CONTEMPT OF COURT.
WE’VE SEEN HIM SIT IN THAT HOT
SEAT.
LAST TIME WE SAW HIM WAS THE
SAME EXACT DAY THAT THE DHS,
WITH HIM LEADING IT, ROLLED OUT
THE DISINFORMATION GOVERNANCE
BOARD.
YOU CAN’T EVEN MAKE THAT UP.
ALL RIGHT.
I WANT TO GET TO THIS.
THE PRESIDENT HAS NOT VISITED
THE BORDER SINCE TAKING OFFICE.
WELL, THERE IT IS.
A NEW POLL SHOWS 34% OF PEOPLE
APPROVE OF THE PRESIDENT’S
HANDLING OF IMMIGRATION AND
BORDER SECURITY.
58% DISAPPROVE.
AND RECENT FOX NEWS POLL SHOWS
71% OF OUR VOTERS SAY THEY ARE
EXTREMELY OR VERY CONCERNED
ABOUT ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION.
63% WANT TITLE 42 RESTRICTIONS
TO STAY IN PLACE.
AND SOME OF THAT, WHEN YOU DRILL
DOWN INTO THE POLLING, BY THE
WAY, TOM, SOME OF THAT IS
BECAUSE THERE’S NO PLAN IN PLACE
TO DEAL WITH THE SURGE THAT’S
COMING FOR A WHOLE HOST OF
REASONS.
IT’S WARMER WEATHER.
IT’S SOMETHING THEY CAN CROSS
VERY EASILY.
WE DON’T HAVE ENOUGH OF
EVERYTHING THAT WE NEED.
>> I THINK THE NUMBERS WOULD BE
HIGHER THAN 63% IF PEOPLE
UNDERSTOOD WHAT WAS GOING ON.
I DON’T CARE WHAT YOUR POSITION
ON ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION IS.
WHEN BORDER PATROL IS SO
OVERWHELMED THAT LAST MONTH THEY
GOT 60,000 GOT AWAYS.
70,000 GOT AWAYS SINCE HE BECAME
PRESIDENT.
WE KNOW THEY COME FROM 161
DIFFERENT COUNTRY, SOME WHO
SPONSOR TERRORISM.
BORDER PATROL ALREADY ARRESTED
42 PEOPLE ON THE TERROR
SCREENING DATABASE.
HERE’S THE PROBLEM.
HOW MANY OF THE 700,000 WERE ON
THE TERROR SCREENING DATABASE?
REGARDLESS OF WHAT YOUR POSITION
ON ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION IS, THIS
HAS BECOME A NATIONAL SECURITY
ISSUE.
>> Harris: IS THAT KNOWABLE BY
THIS ADMINISTRATION?
THE NUMBERS KEEP CHANGING.
FIRST THEY WERE A COUPLE DOZEN.
NOW IT’S MANY MORE THAN THAT WHO
WE KNOW NOW AS POTENTIAL
TERRORISTS ON THAT LIST.
>> IT’S NOT JUST TERRORISTS
EITHER, HARRIS.
YOU’RE TALKING ABOUT CRIMINALS.
BORDER PATROL ALREADY ARRESTED
20,000 CRIMINALS.
HOW MANY OF THE 700,000 WERE
CRIMINALS THAT DIDN’T GET
ARRESTED?
MOST IMPORTANTLY, REMEMBER THE
FENTANYL OVERDOSES RECORD HIGH.
IT’S NOT A COINCIDENCE 50% OF
BORDER PATROL OFF THE LINE
TAKING CARE OF THIS CRISIS,
FENTANYL IS POURING ACROSS THE
BORDER KILLING AMERICANS.
>> Harris: I KNOW YOU HAVE LED
SO MANY MEN AND WOMEN WHO WANT
TO DO THEIR JOBS AT THE BORDER.
THEY’RE VERY DEDICATED.
I MENTIONED WE DON’T HAVE ENOUGH
OF WHAT WE NEED.
DO PEOPLE WANT TO BE BORDER
AGENTS RIGHT NOW?
>> MEN AND WOMEN OF THE BORDER
PATROL, 20,000 AMERICAN
PATRIOTS.
THEIR MORALE IS IN THE TANK BUT
THEY CONTINUE TO PUT THAT
UNIFORM ON.
THE MORALE IS NONEXISTENT.
THEY FEEL THEY’VE BEEN ABANDONED
BY THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED
