IT’S HIS THIRD TRIP TO THE BORDER. BRIAN, AINSLEY, STEVE? STEVE: ALL RIGHT, GRIFF. A LOT OF MOVING PART TO THIS STORY. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. LET’S BRING AN EXPERT ON THIS TOM HOMAN FOX NEWS CONTRIBUTOR AND ACTING ICE DIRECTOR. TOM, GOOD MORNING TO YOU. >> GOOD MORNING. STEVE: RIGHT THERE AT THE END, GRIFF SHOWED THAT TWEET THAT KAMALA HARRIS PUT OUT WHERE SHE
SAID SHE SPOKE TO THE MEXICAN SAID SHE SPOKE TO THE MEXICAN PRESIDENT OBSERVE OBSERVE OBRADO HIM. IS MEXICO COOPERATING? WOULDN’T THEY BE STOPPING THESE PEOPLE FROM COMING INTO OUR COUNTRY ILLEGALLY? >> ABSOLUTELY. MEXICO IS NOT COOPERATING AT THE LEVEL THEY DID WITH THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION. WITH THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION THEY HAD AN AGREEMENT. ALSO HAD AN AGREEMENT WITH ALL THREE CENTRAL AMERICAN COUNTRIES. THE FIRST THING JOE BIDEN DID WAS KILL THOSE YEEMENTS. MEXICO DID MORE CONTROLLING THE SOUTHERN AND NORTHERN BORDER. THEY WELCOMED THE REMAIN IN MEXICO PROGRAM. ALL OF THAT WAS DONE AWAY BY JOE BIDEN IN TWO DAYS. MEXICO IS NOT COOPERATING WITH THIS COUNTRY THE WAY IT SHOULD BE. AINSLEY: TOM, WE KEEP SEEING IMAGES OF ALL THESE KIDS THE LATEST THIS MORNING IS THE 5 AND 6-YEAR-OLD SIBLINGS THAT WERE ABANDONED PUT OVER THE BOULDER ROCKS ON THE SIDE OF OUR COUNTRY AND HAD THEIR MOM’S PHONE NUMBER AND NAMES WRITTEN ON HEIR ARM AND A NOTE. WE HEARD GRIFF TALK ABOUT THE MS-13 GANG MEMBER SAW THOSE OTHER KIDS DROPPED OVER THE GATE A FEW DAYS AGO. THE YEMEN TERRORIST SUSPECTS. THEN WE ARE LEARNING THIS MORNING SAN ANTONIO, THE GOVERNOR, GOVERNOR ABBOTT WANTS TO SHUT DOWN THE FACILITY THAT’S HOUSING CHILDREN BECAUSE OF REPORTS OF SEXUAL ABUSE. FAMILY AND PROTECTIVE SERVICES SAYS THAT THEY CAN CONFIRM THREE SEPARATE REPORTS OF ABUSE. HERE’S THE GOVERNOR. WE WILL GET YOUR REACTION ON THE OTHER SIDE. >> THESE PROBLEMS ARE A BUY BYPRODUCT OF HIND’S OPEN BORDER POLICIES. THIS FACILITY IS A HEALTH AND SAFETY NIGHTMARE. THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION IS NOW PRESIDING OVER THE ABUSE OF CHILDRENCHILDREN. TO END THIS ABUSE, THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION MUST IMMEDIATELY SHUT DOWN THIS FACILITY. THE CHILDREN WHO ARE IN THIS FACILITY SHOULD BE MOVED TO OTHER FEDERALLY RUN FACILITIES WHERE THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT HAS THE SPACE, PERSONNEL AND RESOURCES TO ENSURE THEIR SAFETY. AINSLEY: TOM, YOUR REACTION? >> THE GOVERNOR IS EXACTLY RIGHT. BECAUSE HERE IS WHAT NO ONE IS TALKING ABOUT. THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION’S CONTRACT WITH NGOs WHO HAVE NO BUSINESS RUNNING DETENTION FACILITIES. "THE WASHINGTON EXAMINER" BROKE A STORY LAST NIGHT ABOUT THE WAY THEE CONTRACTS ARE BEING LET. WE HAVE FAMILY RESIDENTIAL CENTERS THAT ARE LICENSED. THAT ARE RUN BY CONTRACTORS WHO WORK THROUGH ICE WHO HAVE PEDIATRICIANS ON SITE, SOCIAL WORKERS ON SITE, CHILD PSYCHOLOGISTS. THESE WERE BUILT FOR VULNERABLE PEOPLE, WOMEN AND CHIRP. AND THEY ARE PRACTICALLY EMPTY BECAUSE THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION CALLS THEM FOR-PROFIT PRISONS. SO THEY WOULD RATHER WALK AWAY FROM THE STATE OF THE ART FACILITY, THE GOLD STANDARD FOR VULNERABLE PEOPLE. THEY WALK AWAY FROM THESE FACILITIES, LEAVE THEM HALF EMPTY AND SIGNING CONTRACTS WITH FEDERAL NGOs? THE PERSON AT ICE AHEAD OF NOW CONTRACT DETENTION BEDS KAREN McNULTY NGO AND ADVOCATE SHE IS MAKING THE FINAL DECISION ALL DETENTION CONTRACTS OVER AND ABOVE THE EXPERIENCED OFFICERS WHO ACTUALLY RUN DETENTION FACILITIES WHO ACTUALLY CONTRACTED WITH DETENTION FACILITIES FOR DECADE, SHE IS MAKING THE DECISION AND WASHINGTON EXAMINER JUST BROKE A STORY THAT SOME OF THESE CONTRACT ARE BEING AWARDED TO PEOPLE WHO WORKED THE BIDEN TRANSITION TEAM AND BIDEN CAMPAIGN. THEY ARE GOING TO COMPANIES LIKE THE ENDEAVOR $86 MILLION FOR HOTEL ROOMS? THAT’S 77,000 PER ALIEN WHEN WE HAVE FAMILY RESIDENTIAL CENTERS WHO WERE BUILT FOR THE VERY SAME REASON TAKING CARE OF THESE CHILDREN. IT’S RIDICULOUS THE -- IF ANY CONGRESSMAN OR SENATOR IS WATCHING THIS SHOW, I IMPLORE THEM TO DO A CONGRESSIONAL INVESTIGATION HOW THESE CONTRACTS ARE BEING AWARDED TO THESE OPEN BORDER ADVOCATES WHO HAVE NO BUSINESS RUNNING THESE KIND OF FACILITIES. BRIAN: THAT’S WHY TEXAS IS SUING. THEY HAVE GOT TO BE GIVEN HEADS UP IT’S HAPPENING ON THEIR PROPERTY AND THEIR LAND. DON’T WORRY, TOM, YOU ARE OVERREACTING. ALL THOSE REPORTS AND MINORS CRYING ALONE WITHOUT PARENTS, THAT’S NO BIG DEAL BECAUSE SPEAKER PELOSI SAYS JOE BIDEN HAS GOT THIS. LISTEN. >> THE FACT IS THAT WE’RE ON A GOOD PATH AT THE BORDER UNDER LEADERSHIP OF JOE BIDEN-PRESIDENT BIDEN. WE WERE IN A VERY BAD SITUATION UNDER THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION. BRIAN: IF YOU ZOOMED IN YOU COULD HAVE SEEN HER LAUGHED MAYBE IN THE BACKGROUND? IS SHE KIDDING? IS ANYONE BUYING THAT? >> LOOK, NANCY PELOSI ISN’T SMART AT ALL. WE ALL KNOW THAT. SHE IS PROBABLY THE LEAST SMART CONGRESSWOMAN TO EVER BE A MEMBER OF CONGRESS. THE BOTTOM LINE IS CHILDREN ARE DYING. CHILDREN ARE BEING ABANDONED. 31% OF WOMEN ARE BEING RAPED. CARTELS ARE MAKING MILLION. LAST MARCH 33,000 APPREHENSIONS THIS MARCH 171,000. IT IS NOT UNDER CONTROL. IT’S A MESS, CHAOS BUILT BY THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION. AND THIS WAS BY DESIGN. THIS ISN’T BY ACCIDENT. THIS ISN’T MISMANAGEMENT. THIS IS OPEN BORDERS. THIS IS WHAT JOE BIDEN SOLD OUT. BRIAN: THE VICE PRESIDENT WAS TOLD HEY, DO YOU. THIS JUST LIKE VICE PRESIDENT PENCE WOULD SAY HEY, HANDLE THE PANDEMIC RESPONSE. SHE WAS GIVEN THIS OPPORTUNITY TO SHOW WHAT SHE CAN DO AND HAS SHOWN THAT SHE DOESN’T WANT TO DO ANYTHING. SHE HAS MADE ONE PHONE CALL TO MEXICO. SHE HAS NOT VISITED THE BORDER. SHE HAS BEEN TO CONNECTICUT ON MARCH 26TH. WHY NOT? ON THE 27TH TO 31st BACK IN WASHINGTON. THEN TO BRENTWOOD, CALIFORNIA TO VISIT HER OLD STOMPING GROUNDS. OVER TO OAKLAND AND THEN TO CHICAGO TO TALK ABOUT INFRASTRUCTURE. IS THAT SOMEBODY WHO WANTS TO TACKLE A PROGRAM -- A PROBLEM? >> I HAVE A DIFFERENT OPINION. I DON’T WANT HER ANYWHERE NEAR THIS ISSUE BECAUSE SHE WILL MAKE IT WORSE. LOOK, THEY DON’T WANT TO FIX THIS PROBLEM. LET ME TELL YOU WHAT THEY’RE TRYING TO FIX. MARK MY WORD THIS IS HAPPENING. THEY WANT TO GET REALLY GOOD AT RELEASING PEOPLE AS FAST AS THEY CAN SO THERE IS NO OVERCROWDING. THEY WILL IGNORE THE NUMBERS. THEY WILL IGNORE THE THOUSANDS A DAY. WILL. BRIAN: THAT’S WHY TEXAS IS SUING THEM. >> ABSOLUTELY. AND THEY SHOULD BE SUING THEM. AND MORE STATES NEED TO SUE THEM. THIS ADMINISTRATION HALLS NO INTENTION OF SECURING THIS BORDER. THEY HAVE NO INTENTION OF ENFORCING IMMIGRATION LAWS IN THIS COUNTRY. THEY HAVE MADE THAT CLEAR. THEY CREATED THIS CRISIS AND THEY GET REALLY GOOD AT RELEASING PEOPLE SO THERE IS NO OVERCROWDING. STEVE: ALSO GETTING REALLY GOOD AT MAKING SURE NOBODY WHO WORKS FOR THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT TELLS THE PRESS ABOUT WHAT’S GOING ON. YOU KNOW, A COUPLE DAYS AGO WE HEARD THAT THOSE TWO YEMENI GUYS WERE STOPPED AT THE SOUTHERN BORDER. ONE OF THEM HAD A SIM CARD IN THERE. THEY WERE ON THE TERRORIST WATCH LIST. AND THEN THEY TOOK COUNSEL THE PRESS RELEASE SO THAT PEOPLE WOULDN’T KNOW THE DETAILS BECAUSE OF NATIONAL SECURITY, TOM. AND THIS ON THE HEELS OF THE FACT THAT REPUBLICANS WERE ABLE TO PRESSURE THE CBP TO ADMIT THAT SINCE OCTOBER FOUR OTHER PEOPLE ON THE TERRORIST WATCH LIST HAVE BEEN APPREHENDED. THREE OTHER YEMENESE AND A SERBIAN. THAT MAKES SIX THAT WE KNOW OF. IT SEEMS LIKE THE ONLY WAY THAT THEY CAN GO AHEAD AND CONTINUE THIS RIDICULOUS, IT’S NOT A CRISIS PEOPLE IS THROUGH CENSORSHIP. >> ABSOLUTELY. LET ME TELL YOU SOMETHING I TALKED TO SEVERAL PEOPLE IN COMMAND OF CBP. I WON’T MENTION THEIR NAMES BECAUSE THEY WILL BE IN A LOT OF TROUBLE. THAT PRESS RELEASE WAS TAKEN DOWN BECAUSE IT WAS BAD PRESS FOR THE ADMINISTRATION. STEVE: EXACTLY. >> THEY SAID THEY DIDN’T CLEAR IT PROPERLY THROUGH DHS. THE FACTS OF THAT PRESS RELEASE REMAIN THE FACTS. IT WAS AN ACCURATE PRESS RELEASE. THEY UPSET THE DEPARTMENT BECAUSE THE DEPARTMENT WANTS TO CONTROL ALL PRESS. YOU KNOW, THEY DON’T WANT THE MEN AND WOMEN OF THE BORDER PATROL THE CHIEFS OUT THERE TALKING TO THE MEDIA. THEY TONIGHT WANT THE TRUTH OUT TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE. SO MUCH FOR A TRAPS PARENT ADMINISTRATION. THEY ARE HIDING FROM THE AMERICAN PEOPLE THE CRISIS ON THIS BORDER. THAT IS A NATIONAL SECURITY CRISIS. MS-13 MEMBERS ARE COME THROUGH. REAL QUICK, WHEN I WAS -- WE DID OPERATION MATADOR IN PHOENIX YOU MIGHT REMEMBER THAT COUPLE YEARS AGO ARRESTED SHORT OF 500 GANG MEMBERS, MINNESOTA MOST OF THEM MS-13 MEMBERS. 42% OF THE GANG MEMBERS ARRESTED CAME IN AS A UAC OR FAMILY GROUP. NOW TRY TO GET AROUND BORDER PATROL 1,000 GOT AWAYSER DAY BECAUSE THEY TIE THE BORDER PATROL UP WITH FAMILIES. ACTUALLY EMBEDDING THEMSELVES AS UAC AND FAMILY GROUP. THAT’S WHY YOU ARE HAVING FIGHTS AT THESE FACILITIES. THAT’S WHY YOU HAD A SEXUAL ABUSE AT THESE FACILITIES. THE GANGS AND CARTELS ARE TAKING ADVANTAGE OF THIS HUMANITARIAN CRISIS AND CREATED A NATIONAL SECURITY CRISIS FOR THIS COUNTRY THAT THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION IS SIMPLY IGNORING. AINSLEY: SO, A REPORTER DID ASK JEN PSAKI ABOUT KAMALA HARRIS, WHERE IS SHE? WHY IS SHE TRAVELING AROUND THE U.S. WHEN SHE IS IN CHARGE OF THE BORDER AND SHE IS NOT DOWN THERE? LISTEN TO THIS. IS SHE STILL WORKING ON THIS AND CAN YOU ADDRESS THE PERCEPTION THAT SHE IS KIND OF QUIETLY BACKING OFF WHILE SECRETARY MAYORKAS IS PURSUING SOME TRUMP ERA POLICIES? >> FIRST, I WOULD SAY THE VICE PRESIDENT WAS VISITING CHICAGO ACTUALLY TO TALK ABOUT COVID AND THE IMPORTANCE OF COMMUNITIES GETTING THE VACCINE WHEN IT’S AVAILABLE AND ACCESSIBLE TO THEM AND SO, WHILE SHE WAS THERE, LIKE MANY AMERICANS, SHE GOT A SNACK. I THINK SHE IS ALLOWED TO DO THAT. IT IS AN ABSOLUTELY AN ISSUE SHE REMAINS COMMITTED. TO SAY THE NORTHERN TRIANGLE WHICH I’M SURE YOU ARE AWARE OF IS NOT THE SAME AS THE BORDER. AINSLEY: TOM, I KNOW YOU DON’T WANT HER DOWN THERE AT THE BORDER, WHEN YOU SEE ALL THESE IMAGES OF THESE KIDS IT’S PERSONAL TO YOU. YOU HAVE BEEN TO THE BORDER. YOU WORKED DOWN THERE FOR SO LONG. THIS IS A CRISIS WITHOUT A DOUBT, AND IT’S INHUMANE. >> IT’S ABSOLUTELY INHUMANE. LOOK, I HAVE SAID IT MANY TIMES. YOU SEE THESE VIDEOS OF A KID BEING ABANDONED AND 9-YEAR-OLD DROWNED THE OTHER DAY. THERE IS A VIDEO YESTERDAY OF THESE CHILDREN. THAT HAPPENS EVERY DAY NUMEROUS TIMES EVERY DAY ON THAT BORDER. THESE BORDER PATROL AGENTS ARE DEALING WITH ABANDONED CHILDREN, DYING CHILDREN, AND, LOOK, I HAVE TOLD MY STORY MANY TIMES HOW MANY TRAGEDY I HAVE SEEN ON THE BORDER. THAT’S WHY I’M ANGRY. THIS CAN BE PREVENTED. PRESIDENT TRUMP HAD US ON THE RIGHT ROAD. 70%, 80% DECLINE ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION KILLED IN TWO WEEKS BY THIS ADMINISTRATION. BRIAN: TOM HOMAN, THANKS SO MUCH. THIS IS NOT GOING AWAY ESPECIALLY BECAUSE THE VICE PRESIDENT WAS ASKED TO HANDLE IT
