>> my hit goes to the people of ireland who voted in the past week on two referendums to change the references to families in the irish constitution. and and one of the referenda would have eliminated the constitution's references to mothers, especially mothers who choose to stay at home. the vote against that was 74%, the largest no vote in irish refer dumb history. it also led e in part to the resignation of the prime minister this week. and there's one lesson here, paul, don't mess with irish moms.

dying diagnosed with cancer -- diagnosed with cancer. she broke the news on the bbc yesterday as we all a wish her the very best. welcome to a brand few hour of "fox news live," i'm erin shaun. anita: i'm iowa knee eta vogel in for arthel neville. the announcement follows months of speculation about britain if access kate's health after she stepped back to recover if ab mom.comal if surgery in january. crowds have flocked to buckingham palace over the past 24 hours to show support for the 42-year-old royal with. just a small sampling of reaction in london. >> after seeing the video yesterday, it's pretty devastating. >> it was really sad to hear that. and, of course, all of our hearts, our blessings are with kate. >> i think as a woman royal it's very hard to navigate your well-being and your health when you are part of that a institution. eric: stephanie bennett is live

outside buckingham palace. stephanie, this shows just how beloved the royal family is by so many people. >> reporter: that is exactly right, eric. yeah, we've been talking to people from all across the world today, from america, denver is, minneapolis, texas as well as australia who have come here today making sure that they wanted to stop by buckingham palace to, you know, bring some well wishes and also send her support to get better as well. now, the 42-year-old princess, of course, revealing that she's undergoing chemotherapy. the royal family often very private especially when it comes to their health, but everyone praising her bravery today. >> tests after the operation found cancer had been present. by medical team, therefore, add sized that i should undergo a course of preventative chemotherapy, and i'm to now in the early stages of that treatment. but most importantly, it has taken us time to explain everything to george, charlotte9 and louis in a way that's appropriate for hem hem and to

reassure them that i'm going to be okay. >> reporter: yeah. and the details remain very limited, so we still do not know the type of cancer or what stage it's in. in january, of course, she did undergo a planned successful abdominal surgery which at the time they believed her condition was noncancerous. however, further tests found cancer had been present. in her video message, she says she is getting stronger every day and paradeses her husband, prince william, for being a great source of comfort. and it's been absolutely packed since her video announcement yesterday was are released. people coming up to us sharing and wanting for the princess' speedy cover. recovery. >> i definitely was watching all the conspiracy theories. we just want the support her, definitely, through her journey. >> reporter: yeah, and of course, the royal family has been through it so far this year in 2024. king charles, of course, he underwent a procedure for an enlarged prostate and was later diagnosed with cancer. we still do not know the type,

but they say it is unrelated. and, of course, sarah forget if soften, the duchess of york, she has been diagnosed with her second cancer within a year, the latest one was skin cancer. so we hope all of them get better quickly and recover. eric? eric: that, we do. prayers and praise for the princess. stephanie bennett at a buckingham palace, thank you. anita? neither mete princess kate's cancer announcement not only follows months of speculation over her january surgery, it also comes weeks after we learned king charles has cancer as a well. it's raised a lot of concern about the state of the royal family. let's bring in "newsweek"'s chief royal correspondent jack royston. great to have you on this, and, you know, such a shock to hear princess kate's announcement yesterday end after so much speculation in the media as to what was going on, and then questioned to see this video. i wonder if you know, was there any inkling outside of the inner circle, or was this one kept

well under wraps? what do you think? >> no inkling until the day itself, but there was -- it started to spread if like wildfire around a the media in a a sort of couple hourses before the announcement came out. journalists were hearing bits of information that it was, that kate was going to announce that she'd been diagnosed with cancer. when i first got told about this, i didn't it. i thought it must have been some mistake, something related to charles' cancer. but obviously, when we saw the video, she says it incredibly eloquently and with huge poise e and calmness and come composure. hugely shocking to everybody, i think, from, you know, those in the know to those ordinary people on the street. it's kind of knocked everybody. anita: yeah, i'd say that's exactly right. i want to put up this tweet from ivanka trump from yesterday reacting to the news about the princess. let's put that up of, quote, i am deeply saddened to hear about princess kate's diagnosis.

her strength and grace continue to shine brightly. it's disheartening to see the speculation that has surrounded her, particularly during a time when support and kindness are most needed. ivanka trump, obviously, so used to being ridiculed in the public spotlight. >> yes. anita: this story has taken on such a more serious tone. do you think the gossip in the tabloids will stop the gossip about her marriage, about her weight, or does it just get sidelined for this? >> i have to e say that i think most of the gossip was actually on social media, and brits and the tabloids largely kept out of it. i think that was the thing that was so difficult for the palace to control is, that a you can't just speak to the ed editor of twitter, you know? the management of twitter taking responsibility for the things that are being posted, there's nobody you can pull to one side and say, look, this is out of order. you've got to stop this. and if there had been, it would have probably been a much easier problem to deal with. a lot of it has stopped, i think the really wild theories have

all a stopped. but i don't think all of the kind of social media backlash has stopped. there are kind of two camps, as a i see it. there's, oh, my goodness, what have we done camp who are all apologizing and frantically deleting their tweets, and then there's that, oh, no if, wait, we were right all along, the palace should have never put out that doctored photo of kate. and i think that camp, the camp who are sticking to -- or standing their ground and sticking to their guns are probably going to lose a lot of the support of mainstream society who will see the seriousness of this diagnosis and want to rally around and support kate, basically. anita: yeah. and p you know, i read that she recorded that video message in one take, which is the park of a real pro, of course. and as you mentioned, it e certainly did come across as sincere. and i noted that she spoke to all people dealing with cancer and their families, and we condition forget about king charles and her own family, his battle. the palace has been very tight-lipped on his e health

ever since the announcement came out. what, if anything, should we read into that? >> well,s i think they're taking a show, don't tell approach. if you look at the fact that he has been going back to work, he's been meeting with the prime minister on camera, he was at work at bucking am palace are a this week with meeting high commissioners who were being sworn in, so the palace are very secretive about the detail of health issues because they want to keep this wall up. we have the right to keep all this stuff private, to keep it all secret, and you can't kind of demand that we lay all of our cards on the table at the time. so rather than give details, they're trying to show that that a charles is well. by having him continue with doing these low-key jobs in the public eye with news cameras there to record it. anita: yeah. >> but, i mean, you know, the prime minister told us fairly early on after the diagnosis that it was caught early which is, obviously, very important with cancer, that it is caught early. so i think on that score, i

think we can -- we have to stay positive and optimistic until we get a con can crete reason not to. anita: yeah. such an incredibly facility final for the royal family, you are right. thank you so much for joining us with your thoughts today. appreciate it. >> thank you. eric: and we, of course, wish them the best. meanwhile, a branch of islamic state terrorist group known as isis-k or isis in afghanistan that has claimed responsibility for the deadly attack on that concert hall in moscow. russian authorities say at least 133 people were killed and 11 people have so far been detained as suspects. about to show you some of the video from the moment the shots rang out inside that concert hall and, of course, want to warn you that what you're about to see is very graphic. [background sounds] [inaudible conversations] [gunfire] eric: you can hear the shots being fired as concert attendeesing ducked for cover as the masked gunmen shot right

into the crowd. the attackers hen set that venue on fire. despite the obvious links to terrorism, vladimir putin, well, he is falsely linking the attackers to ukraine. kyiv strongly denies any if involvement in this, and american intelligence sources tell fox news the attack was with carried out by isis-k. attacks by that terror group on the rise across the middle east and asia. in january isis-k claimed respondent for a bombing in iran that killed 100 people. we will have a full report later this hour on isis-k and on this attack. fox news correspondent madison scarpino is on that beat. anita? anita: well, eric, the crisis along our southern border reaching a new record in february. border agents encountering more than 189,000 migrants last month. nate foy is live in eagle pass with the very a latest on this. hi, nate. >> reporter: hey, anita. yeah, you mentioned the record number of encounters in february.

according to new cbp data, this fiscal year agents have also a arrested 70 people on the fbi terror watch list, and this comes as we're specifically watching el paso, texas, today where for two days in a row migrants have clashed with texas authorities. we're talking dp if s and texas national guard. take a look at this video. on one side of a razor wire with fence you see migrants, and on the other side you see texas national guard. the migrants are trying to tear down that fenceget to border patrol. this is where you remember on thursday over 300 migrants pushed past texas national guard soldiers while rushing the border wall. border patrol processed those migrants under title viii. that that means they get a notice to appear in mihm gration court and -- immigration court and then are released into the country. here was peter doocy talking about that. >> so two things. everyone was apprehended by the border patrol agents. that is important to note, they were apprehended. >> reporter: were they deportedsome.

>> i can't speak to individual cases. they were apprehended. >> reporter: or so the a majority of the single adult men involved in the surge on thursday were venezuelans, and for perspective, take a look at this. last fiscal year over 335,000 venezuelans were encountered a9 the border. only 834 of them were deported. also a right now venezuelament isn't accepting deportation flights. and you mentioned new cbp numbers show over 189,000 migrant encounters at the southern border in february, that's the highest february ever recorded. all this as texas awaits an appeals court ruling on senate bill 4. it would allow texas the arrest and deport if migrants without turning them over to border patrol. you see this one man here just crossed the river, he's one of several that we've seen so far today in eagle pass. border patrol also announcing more drug busts. so far just this month if agents have seized $25 million worth of drugs and over 300 pounds of

fentanyl. we'll send it back tow yo -- back to you. anita: and drugs and people just keep coming. nate foy, thank you so much. appreciate it. eric: an appeals court putting on hold, as nate said, the law that would allow texas law enforcement to arrest and deport migrants who are suspected of crossing the border illegally. our next guest nose really the challenges of doing that, policing an area of texas that's heavily trafficked by illegal migrants. sheriff of thaddeus cleveland is using any resources he has available to try and stem the flow of migrants across his county. it's a very remote county, 50 miles of border. sheriff cleveland joins us now. sheriff, great to see you. what is the situation that you face in your county on the border? >> hi, eric, thanks for having me. first and foremost, what you see happening at eagle pass, out in el paso, arizona and now san diego, isn't what we deal with in our county. we have specific illegal aliens,

those looking to enter the border undetected. when you encounter them in the field, they run. if we interdict them on the highway, it's a high-speed if pursuit. it's nothing like what you've seen this past three years where bind is allowing these asylum seekers into the country. eric: so you don't have what we've seen, these big groups that are just organized, they come in, they talk to border patrol. you've got much for individualized, uncontrollable situation? if. >> well, i would still say they're organized because there isn't anything that crosses that border without having the permission of the cartel. so they're being smuggled in by a smuggler, and the portion of border where we're at along the 2,000-mile border with mexico, it's the most remote, rugged terrain there is. last three years we've had 37 deaths. that's significant. historically, we have 1 death a year but, again, 37 in the last 3 years. eric: and you have, what, about estimate roughly 10 or so a day,

but you've got a jail facility, you can only fit 7 people in your jail? >> yes, sir, that's exactly right. we can hold 7, but i do have agreements with neighboring counties to where i can take the those that we've apprehended for illegal alien smuggle, last year we had about 70 that we put in jail which ended up costing my county $700,000, but governor abbott came through with operation lone star, and that helped us pay off that $70,000 the debt. eric: that's really interesting because you're not just the sheriff, you're also the tax assessor for the county. so from the americans, from the american taxpayer point of view, what is it doing to the residents of your county in you've got less than a thousand people. >> yes, sir. we're the tenth largest county in the state, but we only have about 800 residents. and we're a very poor county meaning there's not a lot of revenue. so just with the sheriff's office, we can only hire three people, myself and two other deputies. again, through operation lone star here in the last month and a half, we've hired two more

deputies to assist with border security means. we don't have a time problem. what we have is a border security problem. everybody eric let me say that the again. so basically you have five law enforcement to cover how many square miles? roughly? >> so we have five deputies to cover over 2300 square miles and a 54 miles of border with mexico. we do have a border patrol station there that has approximately 50 ago agents, but their responsibility is 99 1 miles of border. they are all of our county and a small portion of brewster county. eric: that's almost impossible that you're able to do almost anything. >> well, i'll tell you what, we don't have as much activity as you see in other locations, but the activity that we do have there is the busiest portion of the border between del rio to el paso. that's a 600- swath, mile s.w.a.t. of border. there's not a lot of infrastructure south or knot of it -- north of us.

but as we e continue to put more infrastructure on the border throughout arizona, california, down in south texas and new mexico, that flow's going to start coming to us. we've already seen -- let me tell you what, we a had the second year bind was in office compared to that last year of trump, 418% if increase. it's possible for them to cross in that area. they will exploit it soon. eric: and finally, sheriff, you know, what would you, what do you want to see happen? what should be in place now to stop what's happening in your county, stop what's going on across the border? what action should be taken to prevent what we have been seeing? >> you know, i say it often and i say it to many people that the prior four administrations, both republican and democrat, worked to get to the point where we had the most safe and secure border we'd ever had. all four of those administrations. what's going on right now with this administration has completely dismantled the border. the u.s. border patrol will turn 100 years old in 2 months. this administration if

dismantled all of that that progress. it could be solved overnight, to get to your question, if the president would just bring back the migrant protection protocols which is for those claiming asylum to remain in mexico or we put them in jail here in the united states. now, the government will tell you there's not enough bed space, but it's because this administration cut funding for i.c.e. that was, that we were able to contract more bed space. it's solvable, they refuse to do it. eric: do you think it'll be solved? >> not until we get a new president in the white house, unfortunately. eric: sheriff thaddeus cleveland knows firsthand, has to deal with it every day. good luck to the five law enforcement members of your county, and with we will have you back soon to talk about what potential progress there is. sheriff,ing thank you. >> thank you. god bless. eric: you too. anita? anita: well, eric, back in washington the biden administration is blasting republicans for the chaotic border scene in el paso this week. lucas tomlinson has the latest live prosecute white house lucas, boy, those folks in washington love a good blame

game huh? >> reporter: that's right, anita. many lawmakers who call the situation on the southern border chaos look at that new video showing that platoon the of migrants overwhelming and overrunning national guard there at the border just recently, as you mentioned, the white house and karine jean-pierre if blame are republicans for the situation. >> i want to be really clear that everyone who was apprehended, was apprehended by border patrol. they were able to do their job even though it's made it more -- each though republican governor, in particular governor abbott, has made it difficult for them. >> reporter: here's more reaction from a republican lawmaker on capitol hill. >> mind you, ladies and gentlemen, the people that ran over them, that ran right over them, ran to border patrol, ran to border patrol to come into this country. border patrol taking orders from joe biden and secretary mayorkas. that's the march madness that's happening at our country.

>> reporter: even some members of the progressive caucus used the word chaoses to describe the situation on the border -- chaos. >> the key thing is we actually is have to reform immigration policy because the more legal pathways we have, the less chaos we have at the border. >> reporter: do you think that would stop this? >> >> i think that is -- yeah. i think that is, ultimately, the answer. >> reporter: now, this afternoon in wilmington president biden signed that $1.2 trillion spending bill which does contain some language to beef up the southern border, but it does not go far enough for many republicans. anita: lucas tomlinson live at the white house, thank you. eric: two fugitive squatters arrested after days on the run accused of murdering a new york city woman who owned the apartment they were they were squatting in. it is the latest high profile squatting case. why are squatters given the breaks against homeowners, and how can you stop a squatterer from taking over your house? we'll have that a next on "fox

anita: welcome back. u.s. marshals have arrested two squatters wanted in connection to a brutal murder. police say maaed ya -- discovered -- that'd nadia discovered the squatters only to be savagely beaten and killed.

her body stuffed in a duffel bag. this shocking incident is shedding light on the city's growing squatter problem. >> from what i have heard, people find a house that's for sale, that's empty, they break into the house and then they claim that they have rights to the house, if they stay there. they know that the new york policy is with landlord-tenant court that it'll take 26 or 40 months to get 'em out, so they're never going to be held criminally liable. anita: joining us now is paul mauro,ing fox news contributor and retired nypd inspector. of paul, good to see you today. you know, this issue of squatters taking over homes, mostly luxury homes, is a problem happening coast to coast. not just here in new york, but all over california. particularly in los angeles. this story is just unbelievably gruesome, the fact that these teens were with living in that apartment for a few months while the owners were in europe. and it seems like according to the law, they had the right to

do that. you're also a lawyer, so help us understand this. >> yeah, it does feel very counterintuitive. new york law is particularly soft in this area, and really what it comes down to is that if you can demonstrate as a squatter that that you've been there for 30 days or more, well, then you have rights to the place that you didn't previously have, and the landlord is going to have to go to court to get you out. the squatters are very adept at plague off of this. they know -- playing off of this. they know how to throw up roadblocks, know what lawyers to use, some of them live for years going from apartment to apartment to apartment. this is not new in new york. any place that has a housing crunch has experienced it. new york cops have dealt with this job particularly in manhattan, but it really seems to be a trend. it's ca caught fire among certain segment of the population. it's, you know, among some it's deemed to be a political act, some sort of a act of rebellion. and with the overlay of the

migrant crisis, you have even further pressure on housing here in new york city. and so i don't see any sign of this abating. anita: yeah. they're not stupid. they come up with fake deeds and all kinds of paperwork. let's take a look at what the new york state law says on squatters' rights. a tenant shall include an out or one or more rooms in a rooming house or a residence not including a transient occupant or one or more rooms as hotels for -- 30 days or longer, no tenant of a dwelling or housing accommodation shall be removed from possession except in a special proceeding. and as we heard from that resident of new york, he said it takes up to 24-40 months, that's right, right? it does take that long to have a proceeding about this. >> oh, it can be longer. and as i said, they are -- many of them are very adept and quite high functioning. you know, they're not all marginal people. in the case of the homicide you mentioned, it does look like it

was a dangerous pair, and you get that as well. so you have to be careful if you're a homeowner encountering. but others have lawyers, they know how to get -- they use the real estate system, they're very adept at using that. they know how to find these home, and in some instances they go undetected for a very long time. so if you have an unoccupied property, you have to make sure that a you secure it, strong locks, you should probably put ring cameras, that sort of thing so you can remotely monitor. but what you also have to do is get there within every 30-day period. once they can demonstrate they're there 30 days, and they're adept at that the as well these days. you lose a lot of your power to eject them. their -- they're no longer trespass ors, they have legal rights. and as i said, they know how to fight this. they really are an the keep an eye on it. the absentee landlord is a thing of the past. anita: it seems that a way. you sort of answered my next question. i was going to ask you how

homeowners can protect themselves because this seems so crazy. the law seems more geared towards these squatters. lots of people go if on a 2-week vacation, sometimes more. someone breaks in and, you know, you have a hard time getting them out. is there any movement to change these laws in new york? >> there actually is a soft movement. there is a bill that's been introduced both in the senate and in the house, the new york state senate and the house, to raise the time period to 45 days. but really that doesn't much solve is it, you know? if it really should be significantly longer, because it just incentivizes people to continue to do this. and as i said is, it's gone own e out in the migrant community and elsewhere that this is a viable option. and, look, if you're in the house, you don't have any obligation to let them in. but once they're in and have been there for 30 days, you're up against it. 45 days, to me, doesn't make a lot of progress. neither feat yeah. it's not that big of a difference. and it's so sad in the cause of that woman who was murdered,

those residents in that building are so scared, they don't even want to open their doors. it's a sad state of affairs. >> it's just another progressive overlay and initiative here in the city that's going bad. and until we vote differently, we're going to continue to get this kind of stuff because, aimee that, you're right, the laws here really favor the law breaker. that doesn't seem to be changing. the attitude remains. anita: yeah. paul mauro, thank you so much for joining us today. appreciate your insight. >> thank you. eric ebb eric yeah, that just sounds utterly insane. meanwhile, in california some say the dream there is turning to a nightmare for some business owners. retail theft has been spiraling out of control, say critics, in los angeles. that's where fox joined police as they busted a storefront suspected of selling stolen goods. christina the coleman on this ride-along with the police. >> reporter: hi, eric. we embedded with the l.a. county sheriff's department organized crime task force as they busted a major fencing operation and recovered thousands of dollars'

worth of stolen merchandise in an area plagued with homelessness, rampant drug use and crime. >> come out with your hands up! >> reporter: what looked like a shopping center near downtown l.a. is actually a hidden storefront for a roadway -- retail crime ring. dozens of l.a. county sheriff's deputies swarmed the area late at night detaining several people including the man they believe is helping run the operation. once inside, investors removed more than $30,000 worth of -- $300,000 worth of stolen goods. items they believe were likely swiped off shelves during smash and grabs and other thefts. they say it's likely being sold in bulk to others for a fraction of its value. deputies say the soilen merchandise came from places like v crush vs, walgreens. >> it's easy to steal. sometimes the retailers, it happens so often, they can't keep up with it, and they don't

report it. it's an easy crime to get away with. >> there's a lot of things stacked against us in california. i think people tend to think the laws are soft when it comes to these type of crimes, and they're probably right. so we have some work to do with legislation and get some of the laws changed. >> reporter: a bipartisan effort is now underway here in california to reform if proposition 47, a criminal justice reform measure which loweredded the penalties for many theft crimes for felonies to misdemeanors, each on repeat offenses. deputies are still sorting through all the evidence collected through the retail crime bust we witnessed, recovering hike wily a half billion dollars in stolen product9. this task force has made more than 500 arrests, recovered at least 40 firearms and recovered more than $8 million in stolen merchandise. eric? eric: we just saw all that stuff. a lot of it there sitting in those bins taken from that. christina, thank you. well, also california there's a ballot measure that's

are homeless, this -- it's actually drug and alcohol abuse. so fixing it requires that they spend the money that they extracted from taxpayers properly, and if they haven't done that. you cannot get rid of homelessness simply by giving somebody a hotel room for the night. you've got to cure the drivers of this homelessness. by the way, your earlier segment which was all about that theft, those organized theft rings very much prey on the fact that they can give a couple 06 hundred dollars for a couple thousand dollars' worth of goods that have been stolen under our weak prop 47 law, and that's feeding the fentanyl purchasing. eric: so what do you think the main driver of this when you talk about mental health? has it been can covid? is it the fact that people live in the margins? is it the other issues of addiction, as you just said, and mental health? >> it's mental health including addiction. look, there are a great many of us who have a proif pencety to do the things to excess, the eat to excess, drink to excess, its

if you successfully fight it, you're not an alcohol ig, you're not a drug user. if you don't successfully do it, if you succumb to it, you become that description, a drug addict or an alcoholic. the fact is it can be with treated, we can help many people, but that help is not a hotel room. that help is real therapy. we're in a state where you can't incarcerate anyone unless they want to be incarcerated. and as soon as they get a little sober, they typically check themselves out and go back and score. so this is the reason that we do have nearly 200,000 additional homeless in my district and some of our law enforcement and mayors like john franklin, they've actually gone to organized bust, going to the effort to prove that it's not $900, it's $900 nine times a day. and they've been able to get some of these people help because once they've got a felony facing them and they're given a choice of go to real

therapy and get clean and dry or go to jail, they pick a more serious solution. but, look, it's going to take tough love. decades ago rudy giuliani cleaned up new york. he didn't do it by being nice, he did it by doing what would actually fix the problem. we need to do the same thing in california. eric: why isn't there, some ask, a marshall plan for mental health? we see in new york if, for example, an increase and other cities across the country. as to opposed to the short-term band-aids, as you point out, the hotel for the night, helping the people that way. more programs, more therapy, hospitalization and this sort of thing. >> well, the reality is that some of it goes back to court decisions that said, basically, if someone isn't a immediate threat to themselves or others, that you can't keep them. but you have to keep people long enough to get them in a condition where they can decide to stay dry, to stay sobber.

sober. but you're right about the marshall plan if except, remember, this is a marshall plan that has to be catered to each individual. you can't treat a group like you would just a group of hungry people, feeding them. each one of these people has to be addressed personally and kept in real supervised situation until they, in fact, can, in fact, maintain sobriety on their own. it doesn't always a work. sometimes you have to do it multiple times. but right now we're not doing it. right now we're housing people. not, in fact, curing people. eric: so many people do need help, and if they get that appropriate help they need, they can be pulled back from the margins and saved. congressman darrell issa is, always good to see you. thank you for your insight. >> have a good weekend. anita: former president trump has only about two days to post a $450 million bond in his, in new york. his legal team has asked the court to reduce the penalty or waive it entirely while he appeals the civil fraud judgment

against him. but new york's attorney general could start seizing trump's assets if he doesn't fork over the cash by monday. c.b. cotton is live in our new york city newsroom with the latest on this. c.b., bring us up to the date. >> reporter: hi, anita. former president donald trump has i vowed to take this case all the way new the court system, all the way up through the supreme court. but before he could do that, he'd have to finish going through the state appears court process first. there are a lot of moving parts to this story. earlier this week his lawyers told the court that trump does not have the cash on hand to secure the bond, but trump told fox digital he does have the cash but said, quote, that doesn't mean i'm going to give money to a rogue and incompetent judge, the puppet of a corrupt attorney general, end quote. trump's legal team has is asked the court to waive the bond entirely while trump appeals the civil fraud judgment against him. there's no ruling yet, but a former elections commission member tells fox he's not sure why the court would not

accommodate the request. >> look, appeal bonds are to prevent defendants with liquid assets from leaving a jurisdiction. that's not going to happen here, you know? this is -- he owns valuable real estate. it's not as if he can pack trump tower into a suitcase and leave the state. so there's no reason for them to require this kind of a bond. >> reporter: the new york attorney general's office gave the court a series of suggestions as to how trump could get the bond with, right in trump's lawyers pushed back on all the ideas. in the meantime, the a.g.'s office has taken the initial step to register the civil fraud if judgment in westchester county, home to two of trump's properties. this is a procedural step, and it would allow the state to place a lien or move the foreclose on those properties in the future. in the meantime, there could be a new cash flow on the horizon for former president trump as social media company has been approved to go mix, and trump's stake could -- go public, and

trump's stake could net him $3 billion or more. but legal experts are aren't sure that the board of the company would waive the 6-month lock-up period on trump's shares. >> i'd be very surprised. it would open them up to a lot of liability concerns because if that happened and then the share price were to drop, then they could potentially be sued by shareholders claiming that they were harmed by this and claiming that the board had breached its duties to the shareholders. >> reporter: so while we wait to see whether trump secures the bond come monday, that same day, a judge could set a new trial date for the former president's new york hush money case. a lott to watch. anita. anita: they often call president trump houdini, so let's see who he comes up with. c.b. cotton, thank you very much. and we will be right back. sound effects. why are you doing that? why aren't you?
