00:00I want to join this game because we're going to defeat them, the women maidens.
00:03Make a great weekend.
00:04I will see you.
00:05Bye.
00:06Good evening.
00:07I'm Bret Baier.
00:08Breaking tonight, another judge has agreed to postpone another key legal battle for former
00:16President Donald Trump until after the November election.
00:19Manhattan Judge Juan Marchand delayed the former president's sentencing in his New York
00:23criminal case, citing the unique facts and circumstances.
00:27He comes after a different judge officially delayed the president's election interference
00:31case in Washington earlier this week.
00:34But first, breaking just moments ago, a Pakistani citizen is awaiting extradition to the United
00:40States from Canada after authorities allege he was planning a mass shooting at a Jewish
00:45center in New York City around October 7th, the one-year anniversary of the Hamas attack
00:51in Israel.
00:52Correspondent David Spont here with what we know about this breaking story at this hour.
00:56Good evening, David.
00:57Bret, good evening.
00:58He's 20 years old.
00:59His name is Mohammad Shazeb Khan.
01:00The FBI was tracking his movements before he was arrested two days ago in Canada.
01:04The FBI led the international operation and discovered that Khan planned to travel to
01:09New York, specifically Brooklyn, to carry out a mass shooting at an unnamed Jewish center
01:14in Brooklyn around October 7th.
01:16Authorities say Khan began posting on social media and communicated with others on an encrypted
01:20messaging app in November of last year.
01:23That's when authorities say he pledged his support for ISIS and distributed ISIS propaganda.
01:28FBI Director Christopher Wray, in a statement, said late this afternoon, the FBI will continue
01:32to work closely with our partners to investigate and hold those accountable who seek to commit
01:37violence in the name of ISIS or other terrorist organizations.
01:41Fighting terrorism remains the FBI's top priority.
01:44Once the FBI, Bret, learned he had imminent plans to enter the United States and he spoke
01:49to undercover FBI agents, he was picked up 12 miles approximately from the U.S.-Canada
01:54border after authorities say he used three separate cars to travel across Canada.
02:00He's in Canada right now, awaiting extradition to the United States.
02:04Bret.
02:05And we've just had that CPB, Custom Borders Protection, about all the different countries,
02:10people from those various countries coming over the northern border, and this fits that
02:16bill.
02:17David, we'll follow this story.
02:19Now to our other breaking story, we have several new legal developments tonight in cases involving
02:24former President Trump.
02:25Correspondent Nate Foy is outside the U.S. Court of Appeals in New York.
02:29Good evening, Nate.
02:32Good evening, Bret.
02:33The sentencing in former President Donald Trump's Manhattan criminal trial will now
02:37happen on November 26.
02:40That's of course after the presidential election.
02:42And two weeks before the sentencing, Judge Juan Merchan will decide on whether or not
02:47he's going to throw the conviction out on the grounds of presidential immunity after
02:52that Supreme Court decision back in July.
02:55Trump is reacting to the sentencing delay on Truth Social today, posting, quote, the
02:59Manhattan DA witch hunt has been postponed because everyone realizes that there was no
03:03case.
03:04I did nothing wrong.
03:05Judge Merchan wrote in his decision that he doesn't want the jury's verdict to be, quote,
03:09diluted by the enormity of the upcoming presidential election.
03:14Merchan also said he wants to avoid any appearance of election interference.
03:18The Manhattan DA's office didn't oppose the delay, telling Fox News, quote, a jury of
03:2312 New Yorkers swiftly and unanimously convicted Donald Trump of 34 felony counts.
03:28The Manhattan DA's office stands ready for sentencing on the new date set by the court.
03:34The jury convicted Trump of falsifying business records for payments made to his former lawyer
03:38Michael Cohen.
03:40Cohen facilitated payments to adult film actress Stormy Daniels.
03:44Here's Trump talking about the case earlier today.
03:47I had nothing to do with it.
03:49That was done by an attorney, a sleazebag named Michael Cohen.
03:53And he did the whole thing.
03:55And you're allowed to have reliance on attorney.
03:58It's called reliance on attorney.
04:02Brett, before that, Trump appeared in court to appeal the verdict from last year that
04:08he sexually abused and defamed writer E. Jean Carroll.
04:12Trump's lawyers argue the court allowed inadmissible evidence, including testimony from other women
04:16and the inclusion of the Access Hollywood tape.
04:19Now, lawyers for Trump and Carroll made their cases before a three judge panel.
04:24A decision will come at a later date.
04:27But today, Trump took issue with the panel itself, noting that all three judges were
04:31appointed by Democrats.
04:33Brett.
04:35Nate Foy, outside the Court of Appeals in New York.
04:37Nate, thanks.
04:38Another legal battle in North Carolina has also fallen in former President Trump's favor.
04:43The state was scheduled to be the first state to send out mail ballots today.
04:48But a legal effort seeking to remove Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s name has the ballots now
04:53on back order to be reprinted.
04:55Moments ago, former President Trump wrapped up remarks in North Carolina.
04:59Correspondent Ayesha Hasni is there with details on today's legal wins for the Trump campaign.
05:04Good evening, Ayesha.
05:05Greg, good evening to you.
05:07And the former president addressed it all tonight from the podium behind me as he picked
05:11up the endorsement from the FOP.
05:13He got a big standing ovation tonight as he announced that he supports the death penalty
05:18for anyone who kills a police officer.
05:20He also slammed liberal DA's and his opponent.
05:24Watch.
05:25As we gather today, American cities, suburbs and towns are totally under siege.
05:32Kamala Harris and the communist left have unleashed a brutal plague of bloodshed, crime,
05:38chaos, misery and death upon our land.
05:44The Harris campaign is reacting tonight by releasing a number of statements from law
05:48enforcement officers like former Capitol Police Officer Harry Dunn, saying that Trump is not
05:52an ally to police.
05:54Meantime, Trump also commented on the upcoming debate, making fun of Harris's debate prep.
06:02She's locked herself in a room and they have one problem.
06:06You know what the problem is?
06:08They have MAGA people outside screaming, we love Trump, we love Trump, we love Trump.
06:13And they can't focus.
06:17And finally, Trump gave his first reaction to a North Carolina state's appeals court
06:21stopping the counties here from sending out mail in ballots with RFK Jr.'s name on them,
06:27at least until his appeal is resolved.
06:33That was a big thing.
06:34It means that all of those who love Bobby and there's a lot of them and all that he
06:39stands for, especially regarding the health and well-being of us, can vote.
06:46They vote for me now.
06:47So all of the Bobby people are going to vote for me.
06:49And I appreciate the decision.
06:54And Brett, today, RFK Jr. is telling all of his supporters to just vote for Trump no
06:58matter what state they live in, red or blue, just to avoid any confusion as he continues
07:03to try to get off the ballots in several battleground states.
07:07Brett.
07:08Ayesha Hazni in Charlotte, North Carolina.
07:11Ayesha, thanks.
07:12Former Republican Vice President Dick Cheney says like his daughter, former Congresswoman
07:16Liz Cheney, he too will vote for Vice President Kamala Harris for president.
07:21In a statement this afternoon, he said, in part, in our nation's 248 year history, there
07:26has never been an individual who is a greater threat to our republic than Donald Trump.
07:31That is why I will be casting my vote for Vice President Kamala Harris.
07:36The vice president, meantime, preparing for Tuesday's debate in Pittsburgh as members
07:41of her campaign team make appearances on her behalf.
07:44They argue the vice president is the underdog, despite touting major fundraising success.
07:51Mark Meredith reports from Pittsburgh.
07:53Tonight, Vice President Harris remains hunkered down in Pittsburgh, preparing for her first
07:58and potentially only debate with former President Trump.
08:01In a radio interview, Harris says voters are tired of her opponent.
08:05We need to turn the page on this Trump era, you know, this person who has talked about
08:12how immigrants poison the blood of America, this person who seeks to divide our nation.
08:19But the Harris campaign claims it's still Trump who has the upper hand, after spending
08:23the last eight years in the presidential spotlight.
08:25She's going to explain to the country on Tuesday night what the difference in this election
08:29is in the choice between President Trump and her and who has the right vision for the future.
08:34As the Harris campaign lowers debate expectations, it's bragging about new fundraising data,
08:39showing it raised $361 million in August and now holds a staggering $400 million cash on
08:45hand, a $100 million advantage over Trump.
08:48The Democratic Party chairman writing today, one thing has been clear, voters are excited
08:53and motivated to send her to the Oval Office.
08:56Less than a week until the debate, the Harris website still does not list any platform specifics,
09:01but her campaign tells Axios the VP has changed her mind on another environmental issue.
09:06First, it was fracking, which she once vowed to outlaw.
09:08Now Team Harris says she no longer wants to ban plastic straws, despite saying this in
09:132019.
09:14Do you ban plastic straws?
09:15I think we should.
09:17Yes.
09:18I think Team Harris is only pivoting for popularity.
09:21Every Democrat flips back and forth.
09:23Once they get back in office, they change their mind.
09:29While the vice president is expected to lay low this weekend between now and the debate,
09:33football fans are going to be seeing plenty of her.
09:36The campaign launching new ads targeting black voters that is set to air on college football
09:40and NFL games, Brett, with millions of people expected to be tuned in.
09:45Brett.
09:46Mark Meredith live in Pittsburgh, Mark, thanks.
09:50This was the obvious answer, but Judge Marchand has repeatedly ruled against Donald Trump.
09:56So I think we were all kind of holding our breath.
09:58Here we are within 40 days of the election and sentencing the defendant where he would
10:04get a stay, regardless of what the sentence is, doesn't make a whole lot of sense.
10:09And the DOJ is behind everything.
10:12Every one of these cases, it's political interference.
10:18Let's get some analysis now on former President Trump's legal cases from Fox News chief legal
10:22correspondent, anchor of Fox News Sunday, Shannon Bream.
10:25Shannon, good afternoon.
10:26And this is quite something, this cascading of judges that essentially are pushing back
10:33these decisions.
10:34And this one, for some people, was a surprise.
10:37Yeah, because sitting through the week spread of that trial there in New York and Judge
10:43Marchand consistently making decisions that were not positive to the Trump legal team
10:46or to the former president.
10:47We really just didn't know what he would do with the sentencing.
10:50Now, there's also the school of thought that had he sentenced the former president to something
10:54significant on September 18th, it would have actually been politically beneficial to the
10:59Trump campaign.
11:00They would have been able to point to that again, as you heard the president saying that
11:04all of this has been a political persecution or prosecution.
11:08But the fact is now this sentencing is going to come after November, if at all.
11:12Judge Marchand still has to make a decision on whether the Supreme Court's immunity decision
11:16will have an impact on that New York case.
11:19Listen, if he comes out November 12th and says, I don't think the immunity case from
11:23Supreme Court in any way, you know, takes this off the table for President Trump.
11:29You got to know the Trump team is almost going to immediately appeal that.
11:32And maybe we don't get to that sentencing on November 26th after all.
11:36Right.
11:37And that's very possible.
11:39Right.
11:40So that immunity throws in a lot of questions.
11:42Yeah.
11:43Based on the way, again, that Judge Marchand has handled this case, I don't expect a favorable
11:48decision for the Trump team on November 12th when it comes to immunity.
11:52They could separate parts of the case, as Jack Smith has done in the federal case here.
11:56But they're going to argue that there's still enough of a case there, prosecutors, that
12:00it can survive that scrutiny of the Supreme Court decision.
12:03If that happens, expect the Trump team to immediately appeal that decision.
12:08And I would expect that appellate court then to take the jurisdiction away from Judge Marchand.
12:11And maybe he doesn't get to make that decision on the week of Thanksgiving about sentencing.
12:16Right.
12:17So for those following at home without a whiteboard of all the legal cases, that essentially clears
12:24the deck through the election, does it not?
12:27It does, because there's almost nothing that can possibly get to trial before 2025 or to
12:32a sentencing decision before the election.
12:35You know, we heard Judge Chutkan in the federal January 6th case here, that Jack Smith case
12:39against President Trump in the courtroom yesterday saying, hey, listen, the election calendar,
12:44that's not any of my problem, not my purview.
12:46But pushing most things into 2025, what could happen, though, is Jack Smith could be making
12:51some arguments, setting up some proof he has, he says, of the president's wrongdoing.
12:56So that could trickle out into the public if she doesn't censor or, you know, give any
13:00privilege to those documents.
13:02That could come out in October before the election.
13:05Right.
13:07And the interesting part is that the former president is saying that this is all a witch
13:12hunt and that it's banana Republican kind of stuff.
13:17They are also going to file to remove things from federal court.
13:20And that's still pending.
13:21It is.
13:22And so there are all kinds of different appeals.
13:24Today, the president was in court over one of the E. Jean Carroll cases.
13:28Remember, there are two of them that added up to damages of more than eighty five million
13:31dollars.
13:32Both of those cases are on appeal.
13:34That Mar-a-Lago decision, Judge Cannon down there who threw out the entire documents case
13:38saying there was not a proper appointment of Jack Smith as special counsel.
13:42That case is on appeal to the 11th Circuit.
13:44Trump team may or may not win there.
13:45So there are all kinds of things pending, Georgia and other places as well.
13:49All right, Shannon, as always, thank you.
13:52Who's on Fox News Sunday?
13:53Quickly, we are going to have Senators Murphy and Cornyn, both sides of the aisle, represented
13:58OK.
13:59Fair and balanced.
14:00Thanks.
14:01Up next, the latest on the school shooting in Georgia as we learn more about the teen
14:04suspect's background.
14:05First, here's what some of our Fox affiliates around the country are covering tonight.
14:09Fox 5 in Las Vegas, where a man who went viral for leaping to attack a judge has pleaded
14:14guilty to attempted murder.
14:16That judge he attacked testified before the plea was issued, saying her attacker knocked
14:20her almost through the wall.
14:22And this is a live look at Navajo Dam in New Mexico.
14:26One of the big stories there from our affiliate KRQE, the empty Starliner killed Georgia's
14:31school shooting suspects troubled home life.
14:34Public records reveal warning signs that could have prevented Wednesday's tragedy.
14:39Colt Gray and his father, Colin, appeared in court today in back-to-back hearings.
14:44Correspondent Steve Harrigan reports from Georgia.
14:47You're charged with four counts of felony murder.
14:53The suspect in the deadliest school shooting in Georgia's history, making his first court
14:57appearance today, 14-year-old Colt Gray, will be tried as an adult and now faces life in
15:03prison after police say he shot and killed two fellow students and two teachers at Appalachee
15:08High.
15:09Mr. Colin Gray.
15:10Minutes later, the suspect's father appeared in the same courtroom.
15:14Law enforcement arrested Colin Gray, claiming he provided the AR-style rifle used in the
15:20massacre.
15:21After crying and shaking in court, the father is charged with felony murder, involuntary
15:26manslaughter and cruelty to children.
15:28I would hope that prosecutors would use every arsenal or every tool in their arsenal to
15:35hold people accountable for crimes.
15:38Family members of those killed were also in the courtroom.
15:41Not present, the suspect's mother, who lived apart and has a long arrest record for drugs,
15:47theft and family violence.
15:49She would reportedly lock her children out of the house.
15:53More than one year ago, local law enforcement interviewed both father and son after the
15:58son was accused of making an online threat after he says he was bullied at school.
16:03He knows the seriousness of weapons and what they can do and how to use them and not use
16:09them.
16:10It's kind of a little bit of a shock.
16:11So in whatever y'all are telling him, please instill in him that if this is whatever or
16:18wherever this has come from, it's no joke.
16:20Like, it's no joke.
16:22Seven months after that, the father allegedly bought his son a rifle for Christmas.
16:27The district attorney acknowledged charging the parent is relatively new territory.
16:32This is an attack on an entire community.
16:36The father faces up to 180 years in prison.
16:40Brett.
16:41Steve, thank you.
16:43Meantime, President Joe Biden was in Michigan today where he signed an executive order promoting
16:47high quality American jobs.
16:49It comes amid recent layoffs in the state's key industry and a sluggish jobs report.
16:56Senior White House correspondent Peter Doocy reports from the North Lawn.
17:01What a great way to cap off a Labor Day week.
17:04But in the car capital of the world, the president's policies may be a liability for Democrats.
17:09When I think climate, I think jobs, good paying union jobs.
17:14East Atlantis, the Ram 1500 pickup truck maker that benefited from more than 500 million
17:20dollars in Energy Department grants to build EVs and is turning a profit, announced last
17:26month 2000 layoffs in Michigan.
17:29And the company has long warned some of those jobs could be moved to Mexico.
17:34EVs will happen, but it has to be an evolution, i.e. hybrid versus a revolution, pure EV.
17:41A weaker than expected 142,000 jobs were created in August, according to jobs numbers released
17:47today.
17:48They just came out and they're a basic disaster.
17:52And the labor secretary is admitting the 700,000 manufacturing jobs the administration often
17:58touts come with a big asterisk.
18:01But a lot of those manufacturing jobs were added back.
18:03They were lost in the pandemic and then added back.
18:05And it's been 147,000 jobs that have been created in the manufacturing sectors.
18:10Well, 147,000 jobs is 147,000 jobs.
18:13And for President Biden, a good economy is critical to his legacy.
18:17Kamala, I am so proud of our record, the greatest job creation record of any single presidential
18:23term in American history because of you, I totally couldn't do it.
18:29Nothing has changed with his stump speech since he was giving it and tanking in the
18:33polls and then dropped out.
18:35But still, the Harris campaign has had him out there as their headliner for the last
18:38two days.
18:39For the next two, he will be in Delaware, right?
18:42Peter Ducey, live on the North Lawn.
18:45Peter, thanks.
18:46Stocks were down today over that lackluster jobs report.
18:49The Dow lost 410.
18:50The S&P 500 fell 95.
18:52The Nasdaq dropped 437.
18:54For the week, the Dow lost almost three percentage points.
18:57The S&P 500 dropped four and a quarter.
18:59The Nasdaq had its worst week since January 2022, falling more than five and three quarters.
19:06Up next, suspected members of a Venezuelan street gang come to America through the southern
19:11border.
19:12Then, one Republican and one Democrat, both from New York City, come together to try to
19:16find common ground on the city's migrant crisis.
19:20And later, the pair are concerned over the increasing footprint of a Venezuelan gang
19:24on U.S. soil.
19:26Border officials say targeting members of the Tren de Aragua gang is now a priority.
19:32Correspondent Bill Malugin reports on some of the latest incidents involving suspected
19:36gang members.
19:38The tentacles of the Venezuelan prison gang Tren de Aragua are reaching further across
19:43the United States.
19:45In Aurora, Colorado, police announced the arrests of four known or suspected Tren de
19:49Aragua gang members in connection with the shooting in July.
19:53ICE confirms to Fox News all four of the men are Venezuelan illegal immigrants who were
19:59caught and released at the Texas border by the Biden administration around the same time
20:05the White House was saying this.
20:07We have a secure border.
20:12In a completely separate event in Aurora, suspected Tren de Aragua gang members, armed
20:16with guns, were caught on video trying to break a door down in an apartment complex
20:21they had reportedly taken over.
20:24An incident former President Trump brought up today.
20:27If you look at Aurora, Colorado, they're taking over the place, they took over buildings.
20:33This is just the beginning, you haven't seen anything yet.
20:36This gang also now popping up in Dallas, where police tell Fox in part, we have had gang
20:42activity in the North Dallas area linked to the Tren de Aragua gang from Venezuela.
20:47Our department is collaborating with other agencies to address possible crimes linked
20:51to this and other gangs in our city.
20:54Tren de Aragua has already established presences in New York City and Chicago and has been
20:59tied to violent crimes in those cities, including the shooting of two NYPD officers in June.
21:05Unfortunately, every state is indeed now a border state and we've got to stop it because
21:09these gangs are coming to a city near you.
21:13And Brett, border patrol agents have repeatedly told us when they encounter these Venezuelan
21:18men at the southern border, they have really no way of vetting them most of the time.
21:23Venezuela simply does not cooperate with the United States and share law enforcement records.
21:28As a result of that, a large majority of these Venezuelan illegal immigrants end up just
21:34getting released into the country.
21:35Brett.
21:36You know, Bill, we've been doing the story about California and the possible plan to
21:40help illegal immigrants there purchase homes.
21:43Some news about that.
21:45Yeah, so California Democrats out here had been pushing a bill that would have allowed
21:51illegal immigrants to participate in this public lottery loan program that would have
21:57given them up to $150,000 in taxpayer funded assistance, down payment assistance to help
22:04them buy a home.
22:05Well, just a few hours ago, California Governor Gavin Newsom, he vetoed that bill, not because
22:09of the merits of the bill, but because of what he describes as funding issues and the
22:14impact it would have had on California's state budgets.
22:17I'll send it back to you.
22:19All right.
22:20Bill Malusian, live in L.A.
22:22Bill, thank you.
22:23Work with immigrants.
22:24Please talk to the police chiefs of this country.
22:26God forbid they've been a victim of crime or they're a witness to a crime.
22:31Immigrant New Yorkers, documented and undocumented, feel safe going to the police and working
22:37with them.
22:38And we will never let that change.
22:40Then New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio defending sanctuary cities.
22:45Now, there's a problem with that.
22:48And both sides of the aisle are coming together.
22:49It's time for our Common Ground segment.
22:51Joining us tonight, New York City Councilman Republican Joe Borrelli and Democrat Kalman
22:56Yeager.
22:57Councilman, thank you very much for being here.
22:59I want to talk to you about the issue.
23:02And as you see it, the headlines recently have been all over the place.
23:06But New York Post migrants flooding New York City's justice system, making up 75 percent
23:10of arrests in midtown.
23:12The elites opened the doors to migrants and chaos.
23:15And New York Times, a different take.
23:17Migrant crime wave not supported by data, despite high profile cases.
23:21Councilman Yeager, how do you see this?
23:24What's the ground truth about New York City and dealing with this on all levels?
23:30Well, anybody who says that every single person who comes over the border, lawfully or unlawfully,
23:37is here to commit crimes is simply wrong.
23:40But at the same time, it's naive and false to say that nobody who comes here is committing
23:46crimes.
23:47The reality is, when a city like New York, with the numbers at approximately, as of two
23:53months ago, over 205,000 migrants have come to New York City in the last two years, that
24:00is, it's simply not believable to say that our crime numbers are not seeing the result
24:05of that policy.
24:08And Councilman Borrelli, you've formed this Common Sense Caucus and you have a number
24:11of proposals here together allowing the NYPD to communicate with ICE, enable ICE to collect
24:17suspects in custody, ballot measure to repeal restrictions on deportation, detention and
24:22removal.
24:23Obviously, that's not in the purview of the New York City police.
24:27But what do you see coming together on this issue?
24:30You'll be able to get done.
24:32Look, we believe we have public support.
24:34We believe that New Yorkers are frustrated.
24:36They are seeing rising crime numbers where there are high concentrations of migrants.
24:41Whether you agree with the policy or not, if you're a resident of even the most progressive
24:45neighborhoods of New York, you are noticing that there is more crime.
24:49And not just the crime aspect, but also the money aspect.
24:52This year it's going to cost us $5 billion to house and care for this population.
24:56That would make our migrant spending the ninth most expensive city budget in the United States.
25:02We'd be about the same as the city of Dallas.
25:04In other words, New York can just pay Dallas's budget for what we're paying for this migrant
25:08crisis.
25:09And I think New Yorkers have finally said enough is enough.
25:12We're not getting any value out of this.
25:14It's not playing out as the Democrats have said that this would somehow enhance New York
25:19City.
25:20And unfortunately, until we see a change at the top, I don't think anything's going to
25:24change at the southern border to alleviate those coming in.
25:26You know, it's interesting, Councilman, you mentioned Dallas.
25:30The Dallas police have really been expressing themselves, how tough it is.
25:35And they've seen some violent crime in these migrant communities.
25:38Just take a listen.
25:41The days of these simple 911 calls, you know, loud music, you know, a family, those days
25:47are gone.
25:48We are responding to acts of war.
25:52As a nation, we really need to sit down and think, what are we asking of our officers?
25:58Councilman Yeager, how much can you get done on a city level?
26:01How much do you think Democrats are listening to what your common sense cause proposals
26:07are?
26:08Well, to put this in perspective, the number of migrants who have come into New York City
26:12exceeds the number of residents of a council district that I represent and that Joe represents.
26:18Each of our districts have about 170,000 people.
26:20So we've already taken in more than an entire New York City council district into our city
26:26in the last two years.
26:27It's just simply not sustainable.
26:28And when we talk about this $5 billion number, think about what New York City can do with
26:32$5 billion.
26:33We just adopted a budget three months ago, and the biggest fight on the table was whether
26:37or not we can keep our libraries open.
26:40That's the battle, whether or not we can afford to keep our cops on the street, to hire more
26:44cops for retiring cops because they're leaving the job, to hire firefighters, to hire teachers.
26:51The services that are required by the migrants who are coming to New York City are immense.
26:56They're costing us an enormous amount of money.
26:58We just simply do not have the resources to keep on footing this bill.
27:03And Councilman Yeager, do you think this will be a major issue in the national election?
27:08I don't see how it's not.
27:10This is a national problem.
27:12And just because a city like New York, a city like Chicago, a city like Dallas are the poster
27:17childs and at the forefront of seeing the problem.
27:20This is an absolute national problem that is foisted upon cities like ours, where people
27:26believe that they can come here, they're going to get a room at the Roosevelt Hotel, they're
27:30going to get a phone, and they all seem to have motorcycles, and they seem to be doing
27:35just fine.
27:37And this is a policy we do not in the city of New York control the borders.
27:41All we can control is what's going to happen to people once they show up in our city.
27:46Let me ask one more thing quickly, Councilman Borrelli.
27:49New York Times says there's a flurry of inquiries about the mayor, a remarkable avalanche of
27:54investigations and raids struck at the heart of the mayor's circle, no ordinary distraction.
28:00It comes as all of these things are happening.
28:02Can the mayor do his job in this current environment?
28:06It's going to be tough.
28:07In the past, these folks who've been investigated have been sort of the second tier of individuals.
28:14And now with this next round right now, this is the inner sanctum of his world.
28:19So it's going to be increasingly difficult for him to do that.
28:23But we'll see what he decides to do.
28:24OK.
28:25Common Ground.

28:42Up next, the panel on President Trump's sentencing delay, the new jobs numbers, the campaign
28:46trail, and winners and losers.
28:48First, beyond our borders tonight, an American woman has been shot and killed in the West
28:53Bank.
28:54Witnesses and Palestinian media say Israeli troops shot the 26-year-old protesting against
28:59settlement expansion.
29:01No word officially from the Israelis.
29:03It comes as Israeli forces appear to withdraw from three refugee camps in the West Bank.
29:08The more than week-long military operation left dozens dead there.
29:13Meantime, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky is calling for the West to loosen weapons
29:18use restrictions.
29:19He made the case to U.S. and allied military leaders in Germany as they gathered to coordinate
29:23weapons aid.
29:24Kiev has called for capabilities that would allow it to target Russian air bases far from
29:30the border.
