the low country, helping single moms like she was, she worked 16 hours a day, i want people to never give up on themselves and their families and this country. >> it's beautiful. who is next for you? for the interview? >> so, we are working on that. we have three coming up, and i'll roll it out as it comes out. >> we can't wait. >> five seconds to go. all right. don't forget to set your dvr when you can't watch us live. "america reports" now. >> i don't want them there. take them someplace else or send them back to venezuela. i don't care where they go. this is wrong. you got 73% of the people homeless in this city are black people. what have you done for them? >> we are not even taking care of our own people. it's just -- it's a travesty and shame shame shame on eric adams. >> i realize it's a sanctuary city but there has to be a limit to our compassion. >> sandra: all right, some big

city residents say they have had enough, says president biden's open border policies overwhelm the country from brownsville, texas to boston, massachusetts. i'm sandra smith. look who is here. good afternoon. >> bill: i'm bill hemmer, in for john roberts and welcome to "america reports." got these deep blue sanctuary cities sounding the alarm over school classrooms packed with migrant children and neighborhood sidewalks filled to the brim with migrant families and 0 help coming from the white house. >> sandra: and in texas, the governor there says he is ready to appeal a judge's decision that he says will make securing the border even more difficult. >> bill: michael waltz joins us in a moment. >> sandra: first our team of reporters to kick off the hour, garrett tenney in chicago, bryan, live in new york city,

the first day of school. how is everybody handling the influx of migrants? >> sandra, it's what everyone is thinking about. some 21,000 nonenglish speaking migrant children starting school for the first time in new york city. the chancellor of the school system here chided the press saying look, there is no chaos and anarchy, we have it under control. but last night his boss, mayor eric adams, he painted a much more dire picture of the impact the migrant crisis is having on this city. >> never in my life have i had a problem that i did not see an ending to. i don't see an ending to this. i don't see an ending to this. this issue will destroy new york city. >> mayor adams also said this was a national crisis and he attacked the biden administration for not providing the city any support.

but hours before that town hall he laid blame on republicans, particularly texas governor greg abbott. >> we turned this city around in 20 months and then what happened? started with a mad man down in texas deciding he wanted to bus people up to new york city. >> critics say the issue is president biden's border policies, more than 110,000 illegal immigrants have arrived in new york city since april of last year, but according to texas governor greg abbott, about 13,000, or just 12% of the total were bussed by his administration to new york city. the city says it's receiving on average 10,000 new illegal migrants a month, including more than 2700 last week alone. residents don't want any more shelters opened up in their neighborhoods but sandra, mayor adams insists the city will continue to take in more migrants. he says it is the right and

compassionate thing to do. at the same time admitting this crisis could very well destroy this city. >> sandra: it's a reality for those who live here, a big reality for those who come in and work here, we see it every day and only getting worse. thank you. >> bill: go to chicago right now, unable to keep up with the housing demand there, officials are packing thousands of asylum seekers into police stations. tensions may be hitting a boiling point with a migrant arrested after clashing with one of their officers. garrett is back on the streets of chicago, similar scuffles, what's happening? >> yes, several others this week already, bill, involving individuals who were believed to be migrants assaulting police officers. each of these four incidents happened at the 12th district police station, where several hundred migrants had been living for months. you can see video of them inside the station here. on tuesday, police arrested a 20-year-old man there for threatening an officer, and charged him with simple assault.

our local fox affiliate confirmed that man is a migrant and just an hour after that, police had to arrest a 20-year-old woman charged with battery against an officer at the station. the next morning, police arrested these two men when one of them allegedly came into the station, stole some police equipment and tried to run away, and the man on the right then tried to help him escape by blocking the officers who were chasing him, which sent one of the officers to the hospital with minor injuries. more than 1500 migrants are living in police stations across the city, and at a community meeting last night, residents in the west loop neighborhood raised safety concerns about the city's plans to relocate nearly 200 single migrants in greek town a couple doors from a daycare center. >> i want to make sure the individuals being hosted have had background checks to make sure they are not certain kinds of offenders because this is a child friendly area. >> i cannot guarantee everybody

that comes into any of our shelters has had a background check we can look at reliably. >> and concern and frustration at the community meetings what we have heard across the city when the shelters are opening. we are more than now a year into this crisis. where is any kind of larger long-term plan for how this sanctuary city plans to house the migrant crisis and why isn't the city talking to the people who live here about what they think bringing the migrants into the neighborhoods. >> bill: fair questions, garrett, and no end in sight. garrett tenney, chicago, thank you. >> sandra: mike waltz, congressman, thanks for joining us and while mayor adams here in new york city is warning the crisis will destroy the city, his own word, he's ripping the current president for failing to help but he's also blaming republicans for the border

problem. listen here. >> this mess is as trump-like republicans' mess. real immigration reform, you know, i'm hearing those coming out saying eric is right, eric is right, don't pick half of what you say i'm right on, pick the other half that trump republicans created this mess and we need to fix this mess with real immigration reform. >> sandra: you are a republican, he's blaming republicans for creating this mess. your response. >> well, that's rich, and you know, new york city, chicago, governor hochul in new york state, welcome to texas, arizona, the border states, and even to a degree, florida has been experiencing, because it's not just over the border, we have sea ward migration as well. what we have been experiencing now for the last two years, he is right that there's no end in

sight because there is 0 effort to secure the border. in fact, the biden administration is selling the pieces of the border, auctioning off the pieces the taxpayers already bought. and you know, finally, because the mainstream media is not covering it, finally the rest of the country is seeing what these border states have had to endure and i can tell you in my community the thing that has people so upset is when you have veterans that are not getting the services that they deserve, when you have minority schools and opportunity zones that aren't getting necessarily what they deserve, schools that are already overcrowded, hospitals overcrowded, the biden administration was able to get away with it the first year, flying people around in the middle of the night but now it's such crisis proportion everybody is feeling it and i do think the president is going to continue to see this political blowback. >> sandra: not naming him by name, he says the white house, not president biden, but the

white house has given no support for the thousands of asylum seekers arriving every month. he blasts texas governor greg abbott as a mad man for bussing the illegal border crossers to new york and other liberal cities. this is the number of encounters there in texas is growing by the day, since april 2022. i mean, that number, we all know by now, it's soaring. 35,000 migrants have been bussed to the sanctuary cities, and the reality on the ground for the border states for quite some time. so, does the white house hear this? are they listening? you've got a president that is running for re-election. will there be any change in their response? >> here is the fundamental flaw eric adams' criticism of republicans. immigration reform, say we do it next week when we are back in session. if you have an unsecured border,

you are going to be right back where you started within months if not -- if not years. it's just going -- the problem is just going to start all over again. it has -- the solutions have to be sequential, you have to secure the border first, then you move on to immigration reform and oh, by the way, where is kamala harris, the border czar in all of this? the other solutions we put forward, let's go after the cartels in a meaningful aggressive way, they are making billions off the human trafficking and you want to talk about root causes, let's incentivize manufacturing out of china and if it can't come to the united states, go to central america where you are creating growth, jobs, and not just throwing american tax dollars at the problem where corrupt governments and cartels are going to skim off the top anyway and make the problem worse. so, we have solutions, sandra, but the biden administration has to execute. >> sandra: that's just throwing

tax dollars at the problem but a huge economic struggle for the cities and the hotels right around the areas where you have these migrants who are lining up around the block, that was roosevelt hotel we show the video of, it still looks like that right now for the many of us that go by there every day. it is a problem that is clearly only getting worse in the city. we'll see where it goes next. appreciate you joining us, thank you. >> thank you. >> no one mentions biden by name, whether it's new york or chicago or elsewhere. a live look at capitol hill, sandra, j.d. vance is going to take a stand on the senate floor. he's pushing a bill that would ban federal mask mandates to the end of next year. bill comes after a growing number of businesses and school districts are requiring americans to mask back up. we'll bring you vance's remarks as soon as that begins. and also an issue during the nomination fight as you have heard already come up. >> sandra: a group of people who do believe the masks work and

protect them and they can certainly wear them. you know, this is an issue of mandating the mask and that's what we are likely to hear from him. he's going to make an effort to stop that from happening. we'll see where it goes. hunter biden back on the took as the special counsel says he will be indicted on a gun charge. this as republicans push for access to emails they believe the link, that link joe biden to his son's business dealings. jason chaffetz on that. new reaction to all of it. >> bill: sandra, the wait is over. the nfl returns to the field tonight. detroit lions at kansas city. brian kilmeade breaks down the story lines as the new season getting underway. we cannot wait for good fun. ♪ rock me mama like a wagon wheel ♪ ♪ rock me any way you feel ♪ ♪ hey, mama rock me ♪ soul of north alabama, here on our family farm.

>> sandra: a brand-new court filing revealing special counsel david weiss plans to indict hunter biden before the end of the month. expected charge stems from the president's son reportedly lying on a 2018 application to buy a gun and comes after a sweetheart deal for hunter to avoid prison time fell apart. jason chaffetz how this converge into the biden family business dealings. mark, will this indictment change how congress is handling its own investigation into this case? >> sandra, i don't think so, because just this week house republicans issued a new round of subpoenas trying to understand the decision-making federal prosecutors had going into the investigation of the first son that has gone on now for so long.

separately, just yesterday we saw federal prosecutors make it clear they are going to ask a grand jury to indict hunter biden later on this month. that stems from the allegations that he lied on a gun application a few years back because he was using drugs at the time, but indicated otherwise. i want to show you what was on the filing. they say thus the trial act requires the government obtain the return of the indictment by the friday of september 29th at the earliest, the government intends to seek the return of the indictment in this case before that date. so essentially means we are going to get it by the end of the month. this summer, hunter's legal mess was close to being over as you remember, he and federal prosecutors had reached a deal to enter a diversion program for the gun charge and hunter would plead guilty to failure to pay income taxes. the deal was scrubbed after a judge asked serious questions about the argument. hunter's lawyers say it goes too far. >> they know everything there is to know about the gun possession. hunter had a gun 11 days, it was

never loaded, never used, there has never been a stand-alone gun charge like this brought by this office ever and should there not be. >> so of course you have this playing out with the special counsel. on a separate track, you have house republicans putting up the subpoenas, trying to demand new information not only from the special counsel's office but from the justice department, the white house, this plays in the backdrop of the 2024 election. and a new poll says americans are paying attention to the issue and the majority believe the president was in close ties to his son's overseas business dealings. >> sandra: the country is watching. mark, thank you. >> john: jason chaffetz, former house oversight committee chair now fox news contributor, good afternoon to you. what comer claims is the business associates on behalf of hunter biden were reaching deep into the west wing of the white house when joe biden was vice president. here is one of the quotes, email

from comer on screen. he writes on december 4, 2015, 10:45 a.m., in an email with a subject of "eric schwerin, a long time biden business associate, wrote what the white house should use with media outreach regarding hunter biden's role in burisma, an energy company. and later that day, saying the v.p. signed off on this." i think you were three days before then vice president joe biden went to ukraine and made that now infamous comment about firing the prosecutor. when you were doing jobs like these in washington, how long did it take you on oversight to get the documents that you were pursuing? >> oh, in a lot of cases we didn't. in cases we were pursuing, the hillary clinton case, the irs whistleblower case, they just

destroyed them. literally, by the tens of thousands destroyed them, even though they were under subpoena and there were no consequences. but supposedly in this case, nara, the archives, has these records, and what you want to do, bill, is tri angulate it. there is somebody sending it and somebody receiving it. so get them from both, compare and see if they are the same email and what do they say together and then look to the witnesses and others who may have been copied on this. once you do that, you have the full record. that's what james comer is trying to do. >> bill: if these emails are held by the national archives, is that a difficult thing to require or does that take some work? >> it should be easy. when it was the democrats looking at donald trump they got it in record time, every record they ever wanted in a couple of days. in fact, they had their subpoenas for attendance and

other things enforced immediately. that's going to be the test for this white house. they said there was no communication, that there was arms length, there was a wall set up between them, but here is a direct email with a specific date, time, and them saying, a joe biden staffer telling the people that work at rosemount seneca that yes, the vice president has signed off on this and guess what, u.s. policy changed three days later when joe biden went to ukraine and announced to the world he was going to leverage a billion u.s. taxpayer dollars and make sure he got this prosecutor fired. so let's read the content of that email. >> john: comer says there was no absolute wall, his office doors are wide open to hunter biden's associates. we just heard from abbe lowell, he blames republicans, this is with msnbc i believe last night. >> as much as the facts and the law should cool these prosecutors, looks like the heat put on by the republican congressmen who want to

interfere in the normal course of what the justice department does puts up the heat. >> bill: i don't know if you agree with it or not, about you however, david weiss was on the job, right, and he had a secret immunity deal all laid out for hunter biden, the judge smelled it out and said this doesn't add up. and we are where we are now. but weiss then became the special counsel. so, what measure of faith can the american people have in what seems to be a process that's gone a little screwy, jason? >> i don't think any. first of all, the statute says that special counsel should be outside the department of justice, not a government employee. and guess what, he is, he works, he got a promotion for botching a case, not only let the statute of limitations expire on previous charges, the gun charge that's before him, the judge has rightly pointed out you have to do this, why hasn't he done this? he's had it for years, by the way, he could have done it

easily and the case of investigating these types of ties between the hunter biden family business and the corruption that is alleged, what they have not done anything, not done the interviews and in point to the irs whistleblowers, the irs professionals who were never allowed to do their job in full. >> bill: there is more to this some time soon. jason, thanks for your time. end of september 29th i believe is a friday. >> sandra: and more coming up. kerri kupec urbahn, is coming up, people have a lot of questions. we are covering it. >> bill: oh, yeah. >> sandra: understatement? >> bill: yes. >> sandra: new school year but many districts the same fight for parental rights.

say no one is trying to do this. recapture, in august, lions gate studio asked employees to wear masks. kaiser permanente, masks in the santa rosa facility, schools in atlanta and even some in the d.c. area have reimposed mask mandates. it's not just that masks according to some studies do no good, they can actively cause harm. a generation of school children have suffered significant speech and developmental disabilities because this country panicked instead of using its brand and forced toddlers and small children to wear masks. we cannot return to the failed policies of the covid-19 pandemic. i'm not mad we screwed up. i made mistakes, many in this body made mistakes. what i do think we should avoid is repeating the mistakes in

2023. let's learn from the mistakes we made instead of doubling down on them. this policy does not set anything for an unlimited period of time. it says the next 15 months the government cannot force you to wear a mask on planes, on public transit or public schools. taxpayer dollars cannot be used to force and enforce a mandate against our people. it's not setting a policy that we cannot deal with pandemics in the future. if something else comes, god forbid, then let this body deal with it at this time. but now let's learn the message -- let's heed the message from the american people and let's learn the lessons of the past couple of years. mandatory masking was a failure. it had costs for very little benefits and we shouldn't repeat it. mr. president, as legislative session i ask unanimous consent the senate proceed to the immediate consideration of s2738, freedom to breathe act at desk. further the bill be considered

and read a third time and passed and considered made and laid on the table with no intervening action or debate. >> is there objection? >> reserving the right to object. >> senator for massachusetts. >> this bill would undermine the ability of states, cities and towns across this country to make decisions about what's best for their communities. it would silence and hamstring public health experts who have guided our nation out of the darkest days of a pandemic that has killed 1,139,000 people in our country in three years. let me repeat that. this disease has killed 1,139,000 people already, and doctors, experts are saying that covid is coming back. it's on the rise once again.

this provision would violate a long-held belief in the republican party that states and localities should not be told what to do by the federal government what they are seeing on the ground in their neighborhoods. this bill is little more than an attempt by republicans to dismantle a public health infrastructure that had to be built in order to deal with this greatest of pandemic since 1918. what public health experts and the medical professionals are talking about is an upcoming covid and flu and rsv season and preparing for it. these healthcare heroes are the same ones who risk their lives to save lives, and we should continue to protect that right

to make decisions on the health of their patients, of their communities, and that's what locally focused healthcare is all about. here is what we do know. last year the combined forces of this triple demic of flu, rsv and covid, strained healthcare centers to a breaking point. healthcare providers tried to keep up as emergency departments overflowed with sick children, adults and seniors. and people are still getting sick. this year healthcare providers, health centers, public health departments, transportation workers and school districts are once again preparing to protect students and seniors and disabled and immunocompromised people all across our country. millions of americans will be doing what we can to protect ourselves and our loved ones, and our communities must be able to take steps to save lives and

keep people from getting sick or getting sicker, including the tools of vaccines and masks. but the only thing that the republicans seem willing to mask is their antipathy for making healthcare affordable and acceptable for millions of americans. republicans already thought this year to throw people off of medicaid and their health coverage. not a single republican voted to make insulin and other medications for affordable for seniors. blocked legislation to protect the right of individuals to make healthcare decisions with their doctors. it makes no sense to put limits on how communities and individuals can protect themselves. this bill is a red herring. it is a false debate. we should have an aquarium down in the well of the senate to capture all the red herrings introduced into this public health debate. it's a distraction. it's misleading.

and it is meant to deflect from what the gop really stands for right now, gimmicks over people. republicans have to understand that we have to provide the options for our healthcare heroes to save lives. they will make us less safe because they will be tying the hands of healthcare professionals in order to implement policies that protect against in addition to 1.139 million people who have already died. you argue that this bill is about freedom, but it's not. freedom is parents and students knowing their school can take every step possible to keep them from getting sick, or taking home an illness that could hurt their siblings, their parents, or their grandparents. freedom is workers who know their workplace on a plane, train, or even in a classroom is safe. freedom is knowing that when people travel either on their

way to work, by way of public transportation, or across the country to visit family for the holidays, they'll know that every safety measure is available to keep them and their families safe. we must protect the freedom for communities to have every public health tool available if it's needed in the opinion of the public health officials in that community, in that state. they should be the ones making the decision at the local level, looking at the dangers -- >> sandra: that is ed markey, the democrat, speaking after j.d. vance introduced this bill to ban mask mandates, he's looking to do, to block the biden administration specifically from potentially implementing a plan through the end of 2024. this is a unanimous consent that he's looking for on the senate floor, that would obviously require the approval of 100 senators, likely not going to

happen. >> bill: probably not. >> sandra: but it's sparking the debate and the discussion as j.d. vance pointed out at the beginning there, there are some universities who are now signing on to this to implementing masks being worn again, j.d. vance is back up and speaking again on the senate floor. >> number one, senator markey mentioned the tragic number of americans, over 1 million who lost their lives due to covid and i agree it's a tragedy and wish we had not lost them. but lost them in spite of some of the most aggressive masking policies in the world. if mandatory masking were going to save our citizens it would have already done so, that's the first point. the second point is this legislation doesn't prevent any of our citizens from wearing masks. if you would like to wear a mask, of course, you have the right to do so. but the senator talked about freedom. what i would like is for the freedom of the school child to not be thrown out of a classroom because he doesn't want to wear a mask. the freedom of airline passengers to be able to go and visit their families and not be

thrown off an airplane because they refused to wear a mask. freedom is fundamentally respecting you may have a different view than i do. respecting that, and not forcing to do what we want them to do but figure it out together. i heard some pretty alarming rhetoric from my friend on the other side of the aisle. we are about to have some serious respiratory problems, we always do in the fall and maybe it will be worse this fall and winter than before. but i think what our children, most of all need, i'm the father of three kids under the age of seven, they need us to not be chicken little about every single respiratory pandemic and problem that confronts this country. we are gonna have people who get sick from viruses. it has always been thus, and the way to respond to it is with calmness, resolve, and strategic thinking, not by pretending the world is ending because what has

always happened is going to happen once again. we cannot repeat the anxiety, the stress, and the non-stop panic of the last couple of years. that's what this legislation is ab about. end the mandate. >> sandra: he is introducing the bill, unanimous vote, it would take one to decline, and that would end that. >> bill: key line is panicked, and learn the lessons of the past three years. you have elementary schools in maryland sending out notices to parents saying the kids in elementary school have to mask up for the next ten days because they have at least three cases in the schools. this is a real deal, it's happening, this will not pass now, i wonder if roughly 50/50 senate would allow it at some point to pass. >> sandra: we'll keep watching that and see where it goes and we'll cover it. now this.

>> i have a lot of student debt, i would like that not to be a thing the rest of my life. >> i feel there would be a better way to do it rather than people force their taxes on students who chose to go to college. >> i'm struggling with a lot of student loans and good to help out everyone also struggling with that. >> sandra: sounds great to that, students split over the student loan handouts. more than 4 million borrowers have enrolled in save, which promises to lower monthly payments. some are starting to question how much will save cost taxpayers. grover norquist, crunched the numbers, americans for tax reform, the president of that. grover, i know you've done a lot of thinking on this. does anybody save or win in this scenario? >> what we have to keep in mind is the president is not ending this debt, he's not forgiving this debt, he's moving it from

students who agreed to borrow on to the backs of taxpayers who had nothing to do with somebody else going to college. people who never went to college, don't intend to college or did go to college and paid their loans back, they'll be having the debt right now owned by students who borrowed and put on somebody else's back. so, biden wants to say to the people i'm taking this off your back without mentionings i'm dropping it on everyone else. the majority of americans will lose because of this. only a small number of people who are there with debt in terms of compared to the rest of the country. more people will be damaged than advantaged, there's no net benefit, it's just picking winners and losers and hoping that the american people don't notice the national debt that they will pay has just been increased thanks to mr. biden again which leads to more inflation. >> sandra: and that is a very good point, that last one indeed because the more money we spend as a country, the more we get

ourselves into the problem that brought this inflation crisis to begin with. senator bill cassidy from louisiana, biden's plans in this bigger student loan handout, he says they are dumping the bill on you. president biden's fans not a fix, it's a politically motivated give away that forces the taxpayers to shoulder the responsibility of paying o of -- off someone else's debt. chuck schumer is slamming republicans for not finding a solution to student debt. >> it's a trend, democrats work hard to find relief for borrowers in need, and republicans instead of working with us to finds a fix to the broken student loan system immediately shoot them down. republicans use the same old tired excuse.

student loan only helps the few, the wealthy. >> sandra: people are having this discussion at kitchen tables, people are dealing with a lot of student debt, and there's really nothing being done at the root of the problem, i mean, we have talked to bill bennett a lot about that, address what is causing the increasing tuition rates that are driving these students into debt. but will republicans be put on that stage and forced to respond to this? what is the solution to all of it? >> look, the good news for republicans and democrats, they have the answer, a good part of the answer in the u.s. senate. elizabeth warren was paid $400,000 a year by harvard to teach a course. one, and a lot of students today carrying her debt, her $400,000 pay for one class on their backs all their lives. and elizabeth warren is not the only professor walking away with that kind of cash with that

little work. then add to it, and mr. schumer can perhaps remind himself, all of the regulations that they have dropped, not on business, we always tend to focus on that, but the regulations put on universities from all the various things that the left wants to do and make sure the university has to do that, the number of government employees at universities who do not teach anything to anyone but eat up billions of dollars and raise the cost of education. so the poster child for handling the issue of student debt is elizabeth warren and mr. schumer and all the regulations he puts and the people they have to hire to deal with them at schools. >> sandra: good points all around, certainly a big part of the growing debate. look at the students weighing in on the .com article, it sounds great to those who have the debt, but that's something you sign up for and something you

can't avoid to go to college that is something that needs to be looked at by all. grover, thank you for joining us. >> thank you. >> bill: let's talk about a positive story, shall we? it may be turning into a year to remember for american tennis at the u.s. open 2020, and a minute, hasn't it, this is 20-year-old ben shelton, used a blazing fast serve, upset against a fellow american, and now daunting task to get back novack djokovic on the hard court at the u.s. open. michele tafoya, how you doing, good afternoon to you, michelle. fun times. >> good to see you. >> bill: ben shelton is 20 years old, came on the scene well, grew up outside of atlanta, georgia and now a big job on friday night. semifinals. what's he up against? >> up against one of the best ever to play the game. but ben shelton is exciting, a

long time since we have had an american male, now francis, whom he beat, another one the fans really love so that match was fantastic, you mentioned the speed of the serves, the return game is tremendous for shelton, and he's got a charisma that just -- he's a powerful guy and emotional and he's got this power and enthusiasm and passion to the game that makes him really fun to watch. this is good for american tennis fans, right. i found my husband watching the match, he never watches tennis and suddenly he's watching this all american match-up and it was incredibly entertaining. so, this is great for the sport. >> bill: it sure is, he plays with the level of confidence we have seen from some of the american legends like jimmy connors and mcen roe. >> a tough challenge, when you

play somebody for the first time and been in the situation so many times and come out victorious so many times, that's the back of your head. i'm going to try to bring some things to the table that are different and hopefully disruptive. >> bill: i like the attitude. you mentioned it, michelle, the last time an american male was in the u.s. open finalist was 2006. 12 countries have been there before us. and as i mentioned, it's been a minute since we have seen the golden age for american tennis. meanwhile on the women's side, coco gauff is 19. a tremendous year, a big victory in cincinnati at the western southern open, the big prep tournament for the u.s. open. how do you like her? >> i like her a lot. and she seems to be playing very loose, and when you are there on center court, i covered a couple u.s. opens in the agassi and sampras days and there on the center court, it is electric.

so you've got to come in feeling good and feeling loose and i think she brings that to the table. you know, we have been spoiled for so many years with serena williams on the women's side and with her gone, there is a massive opening for another american to step in and take over that spotlight, and she's really well positioned for that, just as ben shelton is on the men side. >> bill: digit. michelle, good things hopefully coming up this weekend. good to see you, thanks for coming on today. >> sandra: totally jealous you got that segment. >> bill: agassi, sampras, mcenroe and connors, who was the favorite? >> connors. >> bill: jimmy connors, i think he was 40 years old at the time, ancient for a tennis player, he played his guts out and came that close to winning.

>> sandra: walk down the tennis walk of fame at the open, and the connors board, the stories, pictures are amazing. huge fan, and i filled in for you last week, i think it was and rick macy, serena and venus' old coach, he was talking about alcares and changing the sport. i say his smile is infectious. love that guy. great player. >> bill: should be a good weekend. >> sandra: convicted killer remains on the loose more than a week after his daring escape from a pennsylvania prison where police are looking for him now. >> bill: new concerns about growing military ties between russia, china and north korea. watch this story. what it means for u.s. national security and our security with our allies in that region. ♪ ♪ charlotte! charl!

every single resource they have. dogs, drones, helicopters, hundreds of personnel on the ground at all times within the search perimeter, which right now we are on the southern portion of that perimeter. up here is baltimore pike, and authorities want to make sure that he doesn't breach that southern perimeter and there's a couple ways he could do that, sandra. earlier this morning traffic was stopped for quite some time as state troopers searched a cargo train to ensure that cavalcante was not on it. and by all appearances, he wasn't. but another thing that they are concerned about, sandra, that he could go down the river itself, because of that, state troopers are stationed up on the bridge making sure he does not try to do that. wilmington, delaware is a dozen miles away. but state troopers believe with every day that passes he's getting more desperate. listen to this. >> i'm quite confident we are wearing him down. regardless of the location, the background that a person comes from, these are hot, humid

temperatures, he's not living in shelter, so it's a difficult existence out there for somebody that's trying to do this. that will definitely take its toll. >> new video of the search. authorities believe cavalcante is headed south. state police tell us no reported sightings yesterday. a resident reported seeing cavalcante as recently as tuesday night but police could not confirm it was him. meanwhile, the tower officer at chester county prison during his escape is on administrative leave pending an investigation. cavalcante right here crab walk up between two walls. the tower officer did not see or report the escape. officials learned about it when inmates were later counted when they were moved inside from the exercise yard. we are expecting an update from the state police at 3:00, that appears to be the daily schedule and authorities have increased the reward money up to $20,000 for information leading to his arrest. >> sandra: that was maximum

security he was able to escape from. nate foy on the ground there on that -- this manhunt is massive. they have to find this guy. you were noting this morning. >> bill: a dangerous, bad dude. >> sandra: you were going to call the video, five feet tall and able to do it? >> bill: that crossing is probably four and a half feet wide, so a couple inches to shimmy up to the roof, jump the fence and he was gone. this may not be the first time that someone in that prison has tried a similar way t get out. so, he was successful and i don't know when they are going to catch up with him, but the eyes are out there on the ground and in the air. >> sandra: what the police keep noting, the longer the searches go on, that person becomes more and more desperate and more and more dangerous and that's why time is of the essence. >> bill: i agree with that. outside p.a., and now this. >> you have to -- it sucks. >> hug? i need a hug. >> sure, yeah.

>> i need a hug, please. >> i don't mean to bother you, i'm sorry. >> you are good, man. >> i promise you, it's gonna get better. >> sandra: a sheriff's deputy in kansas pulling a man over for speeding and giving the man a hug after the man said he was having a hard time. the simple but powerful act of kindness. sir, thank you for joining us. we all need a little bit of good news, you know, and we see this happening and what -- what led up to this once you made the traffic stop? >> i could tell from the get-go his eyes were tearing up, so i immediately transferred from this being a traffic stop to there's something more going on that i needed to kind of look into, i wanted to make sure he was safe to drive and you can just tell. >> you pulled him over for speeding, i believe, sir?

>> yes, sir, i did. >> bill: you are trained, i know you have a body camera on, but you are trained how to approach people and always to be wary the possibility they could cause harm to you. did you think about that? >> absolutely they can, and we -- we are trained in that extensively. however, talking to this young man, i was able to read him very quickly, and he was he -- he was in distress a little bit and i knew a fact that he really wanted a hug, and that's something that i was able to offer him. >> bill: what was he going through, sir? >> he was going through -- i don't want to dive deep into him, but he was going through some personal family issues, something that we have all go through, and that's something that -- it hits everybody, and -- if that's what he wanted was a hug, i was more than happy to give it to him, and basically

just lend an ear. i'm happy that he was able to have the courage to speak with me. >> sandra: what was his reaction when he got that hug, rather than a ticket? >> he was -- he was very happy. pretty much i think the entire traffic stop just kind of went totally different direction. him and i really weren't even talking about the traffic stop anymore, it was more of just an ear to, for me to listen to and try to give a little bit of advice that -- that i had through my experience in life. >> bill: how many years have you been on the force? >> 23 years, sir. >> bill: you've heard just about every story i can imagine, haven't you? >> yes, sir, i have. >> bill: and when you think about this, what he told you is that i don't mean to bother you, but i'm sorry. and when -- when someone opens

up with that line, can't imagine you hear it all the time, i've always thought the best comment is i'm sorry to waste your time, officer. so you hear this and you are thinking what about him? >> i'm thinking that again, everything was -- everything with this young man was genuine. he -- for him to apologize, i was kind of surprised. if he just would have said can i have a hug, i would have done it. for him to apologize and like he was inconveniencing me, that's not an inconvenience. this is what we do here at the sheriff's office. we -- we are trained to basically just go from a regular traffic stop to ok, let's -- let's talk. >> bill: it's a cool story, yeah. do you know how he's doing now? >> i do not. i have not touched base had him.

i should, i will. but i know when we left that conversation he was in a good frame of mind, and going to his friend's house to talk it out with friends. >> sandra: and maybe think twice about speeding, right? deputy, i've heard it from hemmer before, always apologize for wasting the officer's time. >> bill: you have better things to do. >> no, you don't have to -- that's what we get paid to do. no need to apologize, nobody is ever wasting law enforcement's time, especially in johnson county. if you need to talk to somebody, only a phone call away. >> bill: job well done. >> sandra: thank you for your service, sir. blue state policies pushing parents to breaking points. thousands of migrant students heading into new york city classrooms right now with not much of a plan to deal with it. language barriers, school supplies, vaccin
