11:00 am
overthrow the government. alex hogan is reporting right now. what do we know? >> hi, sandra, the government has issued a curfew to crack down on violent crime over the weekend and declared a state of emergency after gunmen stormed multiple prisons over the weekend creating a mass prison break. one prison alone, as many as 4,000 inmates were released, and another prison, about 1400 inmates living in that facility. so, all of this comes heightened tension among those behind bars were criminals charged with the murder of the former president in 2021. corpses were found inside the prison and some in the streets with their hands tied behind their back. on top of all of that, the internet was out because of a fiberoptic cable connection cut during this rampage and this comes as other attacks took place on an airport, on a soccer
11:01 am
stadium, armed forces also set fire to police stations. gangs have called on the prime minister to step down and this weekend's coordinated crime spree kicked off as the prime minister traveled to nairobi to talk about the possibility of kenyan peacekeepers going into this part of the world deploying to haiti. as all of this take place, san drashgs the government, in the u.s. the government is urging americans to leave if they are on the ground to leave as quickly as possible, sandra. >> sandra: alex, thank you. >> from the river to the sea. >> palestine will be free. free free palestine. >> free free palestine. >> john: anti-israel protests like those are now routine on college campuses across the country, with you they are mild compared to the hate that some
11:02 am
jewish students say they are actually facing. >> sandra: the clock is ticking for leaders at harvard to do something about it, they have until 5:00 p.m. to respond to a house committee over claims of antisemitism. >> john: john roberts in washington. "america reports" starts a new hour. this is going to be a big week, sandra, in so many ways. >> sandra: sandra smith in new york. those chants calling for the end of israel seemed shocking when they began just months ago. but jewish students say the reality on campus is far worse. we have fox team coverage for you begins now. shocking rise in hate speech. but first let's get to molly line live from harvard university on its response to the subpoena. what is harvard's response? >> yeah, thus far harvard's response has been they are making good faith responses to the requests made by the committee, that they are continuing to cooperate with the investigating committee, but they call that subpoena
11:03 am
unwarranted. the chair woman of the house education and workforce committee, virginia fox, has repeatedly scolded harvard deeming the ivy league institution to document requests severely insufficient, noting quality, not quantity what the committee wants to see as they delve into harvard's failure to protect jewish students. last week during an emotional roundtable, jewish students from nine colleges and universities described campus life since the hamas attack on southern israel. >> since october 7th i actively hide parts of my jew issued at this on campus. >> attacked with sticks outside of our library. surrounded by angry mobs. >> i was called a murderer, people screened at me, we don't want zionists here. >> hostility of the anti-israel protestors escalated from hate speech to physical violence as they beat several of my jewish friends. >> they called my people dirty
11:04 am
jews, that we are disgusting monsters and makes them sick to look at me. >> among the documents that are also being sought by the committee from harvard, records of disciplinary action taken in the case of alleged targeting of jews. the deadline as you mentioned now less than three hours away. sandra. >> sandra: molly line, live at harvard for us. thank you. john. >> john: leo terrell, civil rights attorney and fox news contributor. i want to play a little more of what the students had to say at that capitol hill event. >> dirty jew, monster, colonizer, child killer. these are the names we are given at stanford. >> jews at rut gers are afraid. >> mit is overrun by terror supporters. >> we only had two options. one was to come here, which we are doing, and the other was to
11:05 am
hold them account in a court of law. >> john: so the type of language and treatment they are reflecting, leo, takes us back to a very dark period in our history, and we don't even know if there's any sanctions for talk like that at these college campuses. >> you are absolutely right. this reminds me of something that occurs in this world 75 years ago. let me be very clear, john. those students are telling the truth. they are telling the absolute truth. very clear as a lawyer, harvard is not going to turn over documents at 5:00. you know why? joe biden's department of justice, department of education, is basically going to sit on their hands because michigan is more important. the democratic party is split, john, there is a pro-palestinian wing that is basically preventing jewish students from being protected. they are not going to get protection because that somebody is going to go and expire and
11:06 am
there's going to be a contempt motion filed and referred to the department of justice. they are not going to do anything, john roberts. >> john: yeah, we'll see what happens with that somebody. we should just give a little background for folks at home who might not be familiar with it. a few weeks ago, i guess, the health and education labor and pensions committee led by virginia fox subpoenaed harvard for documents related to minutes of meetings that the board was having. also any discipline that was handed out to people who engaged in antisemitic behavior or speech, they received back some 2400 documents from harvard but not what they were looking for. so that's why they say that they are going to go after this with all vigor they can in congress. in terms of the hate speech the jewish students are experiencing, it's not just at harvard or at berkeley. put up a list of some of the top colleges where it seems to be pervasive. harvard university, university
11:07 am
of pennsylvania, mit, columbia, stanford, university of california berkeley, tulane, rutgers, and citing the same language, same sort of threats and fear they have about just being on campus. how do we get to this point, leo? >> john, what has happened is simply this. title 6 of the civil rights act states a public and private university that receives federal funding and these universities receive federal funding, they are required to protect all students regardless of race, religion, protected class status. they have an obligation. they have failed to do so. why? let's be very clear. look at all the protests going on in this country. they are well-financed, pro-palestinian financing campaign. follow the money. follow what type of money is influencing these universities. let's be very clear.
11:08 am
virginia fox asked for documents to see if these universities are protecting students. they want to see if there's been investigation. they refused to turn them over. that should tell you something and what documents are being requested are being denied solely because there is no desire by these universities to protect jewish students. and that's why these students are in harm's way. >> john: we are showing a lot of pictures of protests here at harvard university, last week we had on a couple of students from berkeley who had to run and hide after anti-israel protestors stormed the building where they had invited an israeli attorney, also a reservist in the idf to speak. one of the students, sharon, said this to nbc news, is this 1938-39 nazi germany where i have to hide? because my safety is at risk? there is a large jewish population in this country. it's the biggest jewish population outside of israel, in fact, i think even bigger than
11:09 am
that in israel. but what does it say about society? people feel they are living in nazi germany or poland or wherever prior to world war ii? >> it says some people in this country, some people, unfortunately, have deprioritized the importance of protecting the jewish community. very honest and blunt. if those individuals of a particular color like my skin color, that wouldn't happen. that would not happen. but it's happening because they are jewish, period. plain and simple. and the biden administration is looking the other way, those subpoenas will fall on deaf ears, joe biden is more concerned with winning michigan. jewish community needs to be protected like everyone pursuant to the civil rights act of 1964. >> john: you know, one of the big demands that kamala harris is making was for an immediate ceasefire in israel, a lot of critics say that's more about
11:10 am
michigan than it is about gaza. we'll talk to dan hoffman about that, coming up. thank you, my friends. >> sandra: the brother of the illegal immigrant accused of killing 22-year-old laken riley is expected to appear in court this hour. charged with possessing a fake green card he showed to police when they were searching for his brother. and this is not his first run-in with law enforcement. he's been arrested three times since he entered this country. madison is live in atlanta. >> we are expecting diego to be in federal court in macon, georgia 20 minutes from now. and you mentioned police arrested him for a fake green card, they say he used it to get a job on campus as a dishwasher, but he could not provide more documentation and the school fired him. as of this morning, the u.s.
11:11 am
attorney general was asking for a detention hearing in three days, saying diego is a flight risk. and more about his criminal background. he was arrested in september for driving under the influence, speeding, driving without a license, failing to yield for an emergency vehicle, and having an open container of alcohol. a few months later, cops nailed him for shoplifting. and diego had other run-ins with police as well. you are watching bodycam video from a domestic disturbance he was involved in last year. police were called but no arrest. one georgia lawmaker is questioning how diego was still on the streets after all thiessen counters with police. >> these two individuals had so many interactions with both the border and new york and here in athens. they should not have been on the street. there are failures in the system that have to be addressed.
11:12 am
>> and his brother, jose, they say he brutally killed riley on uga campus and dragged her body into the woods and appeared in court a couple days after the alleged murder, but has not entered a plea. sandra. >> sandra: madison, we'll keep watching. thank you. >> john: nikki haley just wrapping up a campaign rally in texas ahead of super tuesday, and moments ago mentioned the supreme court ruling striking down colorado's trump ballot ban. listen to what she said. >> the somebody ruled today that donald trump could stay on the ballot. no, i think -- i think that was important. we don't ever want some elected official in a state or anybody else saying who can or can't be on a ballot. this is america, this is america. look, i'll defeat donald trump fair and square, but i want him on that ballot. >> john: almost universal condemnation in political circles about what colorado was
11:13 am
doing, saying it shouldn't be up to a court or an elected, or unelected official to do such a thing. and also in maine and illinois. if the voters don't want somebody to be president, they should get a chance to make that statement at the ballot box, not let somebody else make it for them. >> sandra: interesting and new reaction from nikki haley. we'll see her on the 3 o'clock hour. john, we are seeing this as well, the largest wildfire in the history of texas is threatening thousands of animals. we are going to get an update from the state's agriculture commissioner who is in the fight to help save the ranches, plus this. >> behind closed doors joe is incredible. >> behind closed doors he is strong. >> john: "saturday night live" mocking his allies saying behind closed doors biden is sharp as a tack. a weekend of really bad awful horrible polling for the
11:14 am
president. stay with us. s, the truth may be even more uncomfortable. people with graves' could also get thyroid eye disease, or t-e-d, which may need a different doctor. find a t-e-d eye specialist at isitted.com. businesses go further with 5g solutions. that's why they choose t-mobile for business. pga of america and t-mobile are partnering on 5g-powered analytics to help improve player performance. t-mobile's network helps aaa stay connected nationwide... to get their members back on the road. and las vegas grand prix chose t-mobile to help fuel operations for one of the world's largest racing events. now is the time to see what america's largest 5g network can do for your business.
11:15 am
hey. you seein' this? wait... where's the dish? there ain't one. you're tellin' me you can get directv — the good stuff — and you don't need a satellite dish? oh, i used to love doin' my business on those things! you're one sick pigeon. them dishes kept the rain off our beaks! we just have different priorities is all. satellite-free directv... never thought i'd see the day. well, our lifespans are quite short... stream directv without a satellite dish. i'm going to do this thing with my neck, just for a bit.
11:16 am
11:17 am
my name is oluseyi and some of my favorite moments throughout my life are watching sports with my dad. now, i work at comcast as part of the team that created our ai highlights technology, which uses ai to detect the major plays in a sports game. giving millions of fans, like my dad and me,
11:18 am
new ways of catching up on their favorite sport. >> joe is incredible. >> hello, dana, pleasure to be with you to talk about the most vigorous man i've ever known, joe biden. i was just with him. and behind closed doors he's a whirlwind. >> man, i am exhausted. i was with joe biden for the past weekend, and he wiped me out. behind closed doors he's a dynamo. >> sandra: "saturday night live" poking fun, claiming the president is sharp and energetic, but only when the american people cannot see him. a real concern among voters as 73% of respondents say biden is
11:19 am
too old to be an effective president. bring in our fox news polling and decision team members, chris anderson and daron shaw are here. daron, looking forward to this. first up, these -- the polling is showing this is a real concern and a real concern for both sides. >> yeah, i think, you know, our most recent polling, released yesterday shows two dimensions to this, sandra, the first, a performance problem. don't think the biden administration has done them, helped them with issues like economy and the inflation. and second, doesn't seem up to the task. trump has similar numbers, but biden, 37% of people say he has mental capability to serve as
11:20 am
president. that's a tough number. >> sandra: chris. >> i won't white wash it but i also think the truth is that trump's problems are almost as deep with 62% saying they don't trust him. 52 for biden. 57% think trump puts himself ahead of the country, 51% for biden. so we are moving into the general election phase with two candidates viewed as deeply flawed. i think one thing biden has on his side is perhaps reality in that by most measures seems we have avoided a recession and the economy is on a strong track. if voters feel that, maybe the helped number that daron mentioned earlier starts to shift a bit, but nobody coming into this -- none of the two candidates in the general election looking good. >> sandra: to chris's point, daron, i wonder how you see things with the economy shaping out, in the primaries so far, number two to immigration, right. but still the president is not
11:21 am
getting high marks on the economy. when people are asked whether they have more money in their pocket versus last year, 57% of respondents, this has been pretty steady, say less. so, while they are being told it's a better economy and things are going great, they are saying they don't have as much money in their pocket as they did a year ago. and when having to give grades on the economy and other big topics, those that say the biden administration's mostly failed, that number is 61% on handling of the economy. 63% say he's mostly failed when making the u.s. safer. unifying the country, almost 70% say he's mostly failed on that. and when it comes to what is being -- really showing up as the number one issue on immigration on whether the president and his administration are improving border security, 71% say that he has mostly failed on that, daron. >> the numbers are what they
11:22 am
are, sandra, and your recitation of them is really kind of challenging for the biden administration, right. two quick points. on the economy, i mean, yes, the macro numbers, the gdp, some of the employment numbers look very good, and that's getting a lot of attention in the "new york times" and the "washington post" and places like that, and those are real. but we have not had inflation as a major economic issue really since 1980 and so what the question that we asked, do you feel you have more money in your pocket. and almost six in ten voters say i have less money than i had to pay bills, to pay rent, to get gas, etc., than i did a year ago. that's a really tough number. the second kind of element of it is the biden administration has, you know, they have a problem in that people's evaluations of the trump administration have strangely improved over time, right. our guru of polling at fox pointed out that in 2019,
11:23 am
evaluations of trump's handling of the economy were mediocre. but right now, retrospect, people say it was better under trump, it helped them. comparing to the numbers with biden underwater and a dangerous way. >> sandra: chris, finish up with this. when asked in the fox news polling are biden's policies helping your family, 25% say helping, 48%, almost half, say hurting. those that say no difference at all to them about a quarter. i'll finish off with this, and this is something nikki haley who is campaigning right now and will be coming on the network, something she likes to tout. if it were nikki haley versus joe biden right now, among registered voters, that she would beat joe biden by eight points. donald trump versus joe biden, he would win by two points. final thought on that. >> well, if there's third party candidates in the race that
11:24 am
changes dramatically. we've seen that there are a lot of trump voters out there that say they won't vote for haley. however, they are less likely to vote for biden. so it's haley-biden, she will get some of the voters. third party candidate, the anti-haley trump vote goes. in the five-way ballot test she does poorly because there's the trump supporters who gravitate towards rfj, jr., rather cast a vote for him than for haley or biden. >> sandra: john. >> john: good take on that. united states making the first air drop of humanitarian aid into gaza over the weekend as the white house pushes for a ceasefire and hostage deal. and vice president kamala harris is offering up some sharp criticism of israel.
11:25 am
former cia station chief dan hoffman joins us live to discuss. >> our vice president and this administration is literally undermining our ally israel. in the face of the greatest attack in 50 years.
11:26 am
11:27 am
11:28 am
11:29 am
its first air drop of humanitarian aid into gaza, it happened over the weekend. white house officials say over 38,000 meals were delivered with many more expected in the coming weeks. jennifer griffin is live at the pentagon. she has more details on this. jen, why now is the pentagon air dropping aid into gaza rather than sending it in by road? >> that's a good question, sandra, and shows the level of desperation. matt miller faced skeptical reporters and was just asked why the u.s. is resorting to battlefield humanitarian air drops when the area they are servicing is controlled by an
11:30 am
ally, israel. few think the air drop of humanitarian air drop done in conjunction with jordan will do anything to stave off massive hunger and starvation in gaza. american c-130 transport planes dropped 38,000 mres, meals ready to eat, on saturday. vice president kamala harris called for an immediate ceasefire sunday. >> what we are seeing every day in gaza is devastating. people in gaza are starving. the conditions are inhumane. and our common humanity compels us to act. >> miles of humanitarian aid trucks are lined up on the border with gaza waiting to go in, but a combination of delays by the israeli government who control the borders, egypt and hamas have made such deliveries few and far between.
11:31 am
2.3 million palestinians are facing hunger and malnutrition, many are not eating to give it to their children, and some are mixing bird and animal feed. >> logistically very complicated and expensive as well. >> meanwhile, in the red sea, belize-flagged ship carrying 21,000 metric tons of fertilizer finally sunk at 2:15 a.m. local time saturday after being hit by a houthi anti-ship missile on february 18th. the first ship to have been sunk by the iranian-backed houthis. it was leaking fuel since it was struck two weeks ago and experts warn it poses an ecological disaster for the red sea and its co
11:32 am
coral reefs. >> john: kamala harris tore a strip off israel over the weekend and making some big demands as well. listen to what she said. >> i will repeat, the threat of hamas poses to the people of israel must be eliminated. and given the immense scale of suffering in gaza. there must be an immediate ceasefire. for at least the next six weeks, which is what is currently on the table. [cheering] this will get the hostages out and get a significant amount of aid in. >> john: so there was two things at work there, and seems to me like they are almost trying to have it both ways, dan. saying israel has a right to
11:33 am
defend itself against hamas but there needs to be an immediate ceasefire and most people would say if there's a ceasefire in gaza, that in any way is advantageous to hamas, then israel loses. >> yeah, i think that's right, john. look, hamas would like to have a ceasefire, they are going to exact a high price for a ceasefire, would allow them to regroup and rearm. we are talking about potentially a six-week ceasefire. for israel, almost mutually incompatible goals to ensure the release of the 134 hostages still being held and the same time destroy hamas. very difficult to do that and hamas intermingles with civilians, it's not like they are wearing uniforms, so they cannot distinguish between the com combatants and civilians.
11:34 am
you have tens of thousands of dead innocent palestinian civilians while israel tries to prosecute this righteous war counter attack on hamas which can no longer enjoy ungoverned space to plot terrorist attacks against israel, that's for sure. >> john: the white house, they say it's more about the state of migrant, the -- the state of michigan than the state of war, critics say. >> no doubt there is pressure on the democratic party to understand there is a humanitarian catastrophe going on in gaza, and to do something about it and to be perceived as doing something about it. the challenge for the biden administration is that they don't really have the leverage to change the netanyahu government's posture and strategy for attack in gaza. i think that's probably one reason why the biden administration invited former chief of staff for idf, beni
11:35 am
gantz, to the united states. that might put a little pressure on netanyahu. but at the end of the day, he's in a worse corner than the biden administration is. he's going to be held accountable for the hamas surprise attack and does not have many other choices but to prosecute this war. >> john: so gantz arrival of netanyahu, came to the united states without the blessing of netanyahu, but i can't see gantz talking to biden and kamala harris about anything that would potentially undercut israel's best interest, would you? >> well, i think that's -- the biden administration strategy, well-known great differences between netanyahu and president biden. they don't have a very close personal relationship, and this is something that i'm sure netanyahu does not like at all and gantz did not receive permission beforehand before he made this trip to the united states, and so this is a little bit of interference in israeli
11:36 am
internal politics by the biden administration, but you know, in an election year, i think the biden administration is feeling so much pressure for themselves they feel they have to do everything they can. >> john: all right, we'll see what the upshot of the meeting with gantz today at the white house will be. dan, good to chat with you. thanks so much. appreciate it. >> all right, you too. >> sandra: new york taxpayers will be forced to foot enormous bill to keep migrants off the streets and the state wants to send them out to the burbs. >> john: the smokehouse creek fire burning up more than 1 million acres. only 15% contained. sid miller joins us with the latest coming up next. we come from a long line of cowboys.

11:41 am
>> john: the border remains a top issue for voters, particularly in new york city which has spent $2.3 billion of taxpayer money to help house, feed and care for migrants who have flooded the city. and now there is a plan to send the migrants out to the burbs. bryan is live outside the roosevelt hotel in new york. how is the city going to spend the taxpayer money? >> hey, john. look, the city has spent about a billion dollars of that taxpayer money just on housing alone since july. housing some 15,000 migrant families and their children. it costs about $400 a night for just one migrant family to stay at a hotel in new york city like the roosevelt hotel behind me. so, last summer new york state offered to help by launching a $25 million migrant relocation program paying an entire year's rent for every migrant family that chooses to move out of the city. the problem is new york suburban
11:42 am
communities don't want them. just five of the state's 62 counties are accepting relocations, including suffolk county, but today a county spokesperson tells fox it's new reevaluating suffolk county is not nor will it be a sanctuary city and not agreed to accepting undocumented migrants. we are working with the state on clarification of the program. rock land county executive ed day says this is the city's problem. >> you asked for it. you are a sanctuary city, we are not. the fact of the matter is we don't have the ability to do it. >> the voluntary relocation program was meant to help 1250 migrant family, but only a few have been removed. advocates say they don't want to leave the city because they are afraid they won't find work. >> people are afraid to go to an area where very few people speak
11:43 am
spanish. afraid to be accepted. afraid their kids are in a space where they don't know how they are going to be integrated. to qualify for the program, the migrant has had to apply for asylum and be on the path to work authorization. new york city has tried to get the state to eliminate requirements, to open it up to more migrants. but so far, unsuccessful. john. >> john: we'll keep watching it. thank you. sandra. >> sandra: firefighters in texas still struggling to contain the largest wildfire in the history of the lone star state. the flames have incinerated more than a million acres of the texas panhandle and killed thousands of livestock raising concerns about the numerous ranches and threatening the food supply even. sid miller serves as texas agriculture commissioner. commissioner, welcome to you, sir, thank you so much for your time. as this is happening, can you please give us an update on the situation? >> well, this is the largest fire we have ever had in texas. it's the largest fire we have
11:44 am
ever had in the united states. it's almost 2000 square miles, a million and a half acres. preliminary reports, 3,000 head of cattle, the number will triple or quadruple before its over, especially when we euthanize the cattle with their hooves burnt or udders burnt, it's a sad situation. over 500 houses and barns destroyed and the number continues to climb. two fatalities, thank goodness only two, but we also have five firefighters that have been injured. we have over 120 miles, sandra, of power lines that are down. this country is sparsely populated and very arid so there is not a lot of stock water. most comes from wells. not only is this livestock out of grass, but also no water. so it's very desperate situation. we have 16 schools that have closed and evacuated.
11:45 am
i run the school lunch and breakfast program, we continue to feed the kids at home or in the shelters, wherever they are. we have seven grain and seed dealers that have completely been wiped out. good news is, there's a lot of dairies and feed lots in the area. those for the most part are unscathed. now, if people want to go get help or want to help with resources, they can go to my facebook page, miller for texas, texas department of agriculture page, or our website, texas department of agriculture. three main -- four main things. first is a hay hotline, donate hay or feed. or donate a truck or trail tory help haul that. and pick-up locations around the state, and delivery points up in the texas panhandle. next thing you'll find is our star program which is a grant program, state of texas agriculture relief. it's not taxpayer dollars, it's
11:46 am
good people, you know, wanting to help out, so we take money from individuals, groups, corporations, companies, whoever. and we put 100% of that back into the farmer's pocket to help them rebuild. buy new wire, posts, put a barn up, things that insurance doesn't carry. we recently had a generous donation of $500,000 from heb, one of our local grocery chains here in texas. the third thing is, and it's relatively new, but always bothered me, sandra, highest rate of suicide are the veterans and the farmers. so there is a 988 suicide line but they don't understand farmers or agriculture, so i've set up my own, my folks have 300 hours of training in mental health for agriculture issues. they know resources that regular line would not know, you know, assets are at the usda for low interest loans, livestock
11:47 am
indemnity grants, they can send them to my agency, texas department of agriculture for the star program, and it's just -- it's out there. i want to get that number up on the screen. >> sandra: it's on the screen. it's right there, sir. incredibly important that we put that up, and that's obviously a really important thing that you are doing because we are hearing this from some of those ranch operators. this is chance bowers, to give you an example what they are dealing with. >> by the time it's all said and done, lost 200, to 250 head. i spent the last 15 years building this cow herd up and you can lose it overnight. >> sandra: idea of just what is is at stake and how devastating this is. final thought from you. >> 300 head of cattle, worth about $3,000 apiece. there's no insurance on that
11:48 am
