telling us more and more folks in recent weeks are testing positive for covid-19 and a lot coming from nicaragua. not all family units. this was released on friday by border patrol in tucson, arizona. they arrested this guatemala national, convicted murderer in the state of north carolina. there are criminals in the groups. photos here. late last week border patrol in big bend sector arrested these three immigrants. three holding firearms because border patrol said they burglarized a ranchers home stole guns, ammunition, clothes and food. they had the guns when they were arrested. a sheriff said he has never seen things this bad with this crisis. >> i've never seen it like this when my deputies are catching 5, 10, 12, loads smuggling cases in a week. we have texas state troopers doing the same thing. we catch one, we miss three. we've got it on video, body cam. we stopped one car and we see two more right behind it that are loaded and we can't stop them because resources are tied up on the one. i've seen more break-ins than i've ever seen before. >> and back out here live as you take a look at f

nicaragua and south america almost 5,000. now look at it, mexico 65,000. brian: let title 42 evaporate. ainsley: look at the northern triangle almost 76,000. steve: we have known people are come from mexico and northern triangle. the key is the bottom number. look at people coming from south america and nicaragua. beginning of the year it was 4,000. now it is, what, six times that. it's 35,000 people. also, according to this particular study, apparently 9,000 haitians and cubans came through in january. think about that. haitians and cubans who are just 90 miles away from florida. how do they get in the united states? through texas they are guaranteed to get in through texas. we have row mainians sneaking in. normal process going through embassy. meet you in mexico. texas legislators, democrats, who worked hard, i imagine, to win their office decide the best thing for them to do is to flee like cowards to washington, d.c. at the same time their border has been infiltrated by illegals. what are you doing that's what brian hughes wondered as he spoke to us.

morning in del rio, texas, groups of migrants arrive at the border wall, many of them from cuba and nicaragua all of them with hopes of being able to stay in the united states the groups eventually picked up by border patrol and taken away to processing centers as scenes play out like this every hour, every day all along the border. and now fox news is getting exclusive access showing you the first stages of construction of governor abbott's promised texas border barrier. >> just yards away from the rio grande right here in del rio, you will see the very beginning of what is going to be governor abbott's texas border wall, border fencing. take a look. this is the very first 1.5-mile stretch of that construction. 7-foot tall chain linked fence with barbaroed wire on top. the idea being they are going to put no trespassing signs up. if they try to scale they will be arrested local charges and booked into local jails. >> they will be arrested for criminal access. >> lieutenant chris with texas dps says texas is done waiting for the biden administration to do its job. and the lone star state is t

many of which are coming from nicaragua. it is not all family units coming across, it has criminals as well. take a look at this mug shot right here. tucson border patrol officers pick this man up as well. he is a conviction for second-degree murder out of the state of north carolina. they were able to capture him near casa grande, arizona, after the cross illegally. these are out of hud state county texas. late last week, they arrested illegal immigrants after he had just broken into ranchers home. they stole two loaded firearms from that home as well as ammo, close, and food. border patrol was able to apprehend all three of those guys. as you can see in the photos, they still let the guns in their possession when they were taken into custody. the sheriff said that this border crisis is the worst that he is ever seen it. take a listen. >> i have never seen it like this. when my deputies are catching five, ten, 12 loads of smuggling cages in a week, we have texas state troopers here that are doing the same thing. we catch on

everybody is overestimating the strength of the opposition and under estimating the oppressive regimes in nicaragua, and venezuela, and now in cuba. it is so easy because you see the demonstrators in the streets. this regime is on the verge of collapse but that's not what's happening. let me say one other thing. it is inhumane that we are not helping our neighbor, cuba, with vaccines. why or why not -- cobia vaccines should hang on the shelves. hundreds of millions of doses. we deal with the chinese, this is preposterous. strictly because of the strength of the community and represent upset i saw yesterday flamboyantly are saying that they want another bay of pigs. >> john: that would be a bad idea. i'm going to let jason jump in here. democrats are blaming the keeping people on sanctions that have been imposed on the united states for decades. they're not blaming it on 60 years of continued years of continued dictatorship. >> the oppression in cuba is based on a communist government. but, i was one of the very few republicans on our side of the aisle that supported president obama and the idea tha

patrol, mostly moms and children bear the ones i talked to said they were all from guatemala, honduras, nicaragua. some of the moms we saw breastfeeding, some children were coughing. border agents have been telling us a lot of the folks coming over have been testing positive for covid-19. we heard governor abbott call for help the other week and now that help is showing up. take a look at these photos provided to us by texas, law enforcement from florida and nebraska have already arrived in texas in the del rio sector right now. this is florida state troopers and nebraska state troopers where they are currently helping out texas state troopers with their border operations until they sent over troopers, investigators, shallow water boats, more help is on the way from iowa, idaho, arkansas, and south carolina but not everybody is happy with that. take a look at what a group had to say, they sent a letter to president biden on fourth of july urging him to stop allowing these states to send help to the border saying in part "we are being invaded by governors of the defeated confederacy to arm the bor

last night we ran into a few dozen migrants including a group if nicaragua saying it took them 26 days to walk through central america and arrive here. local officials are urging the biden administration to keep a covid emergency order known as title 42, you heard it there, which officials here use to send migrants back to mexico. >> we continue to ask and customs and border protection and department of homeland security all say basically the same thing. we don't know if and when something will change with title 42. we just know if it does, if it goes away we can expect our numbers most likely to increase dramatically. >> customs and border protection says officials have expelled more than 750,000 migrants since october under that emergency title 42 authority. officials say the administration has considered suspending that procedure as early as the end of this month. the white house says there is no timeline on ending it. depends on the covid guidance. administration also announced it will expedite the removal of certain families that they say no basis for being in the united states. d

we're seeing migrants from central america nations, such as nicaragua, el salvador, honduras, even islands such as haiti and eastern europe. people have been coming from romania and even though they're entering the u.s. through new mexico, you can't deport them to mexico because that's not their home country. federal, state and local authorities are dealing with the humanitarian crisis, family and children arriving at the border, criminals are taking advantage of the situation. >> it's challenging for us to try to capture these smugglers because they know that we cannot apprehend them and we know that they use the migrants as a safety shield for them because we get close to them and they start putting those migrants in danger pushing them off the raft and then you have the children on the rafts. >> a federal judge blocked new applications to daca, a program that prevents deportation of many migrants brought into the u.s. illegally when they were children. it does not affect migrants already enrolled in the program and griff, as you can imagine, it's likely the judge's ruling is likely to f

talk with some of them as they were being processed by border patrol, many telling me they were from nicaragua, and honduras. i can tell you personally this is the biggest single group i have ever seen apprehended by border patrol. it was thought maybe things would slow down in the summer months, we have a summer storm rolling through the area right now. what we see on the ground, nothing is slowing down just yet. we heard texas governor greg abbott putting out a call for help, that health has finally arrived. take a look at some of these photos that texas state trooper sent me. florida and nebraska have already responded and sent to state police up to the del rio area where they are currently helping texas dps with their operations up there. they sent florida nomadic photos of those troopers helping out. but they are saying is they help provide investigators, shallow water boats, and one aircraft. more states are coming, as well. idaho, arkansas, and south carolina. back out here lives, a latin advocacy group is not thrilled about those other states coming to help out. the league of united la

it's easy to be a revolutionary in venezuela, nicaragua and cuba when you're based in miami. steve: and joe biden yesterday did say they were talking about trying to get some vaccines into cuba, but then again you know how cuba works, we send a bunch of it there, next thing you know there's a black market -- ainsley: can't trust the government. steve you can't. and that's one of the reasons why earlier this week the biden administration said that all those people that were on the streets of havana as a reaction to covid, which was a load of crap. that's not absolutely true. we want to hear from the president saying something bad about communism, and he didn't until yesterday. here's the president. >> communism is a failed system, universally failed system. and i don't see socialism as a very useful substitute. cuba is a, unfortunately, a failed state and repressing their citizens. there are a number of things that we would consider doing to help the people of cuba, but it would require a different circumstance or a guarantee that they would not be taken advantage of by the go

because they do see a positive, getting communism out of cuba would help us in venezuela, help us in nicaragua and bolivia. without cuba, the doctrine doesn't spread. don't they see the plus side of the people having a say in their government in cuba? senator: well, that's what we hope to talk to them about. i don't know if we are going to get the meeting. it's the president and he has a busy schedule. you figure out to have a meeting. if there's anything that should be bipartisan is foreign policy and something like this, taking on marxism, socialism and anti-american dictatorship 90 miles from our shores, that should be bipartisan, right now it's not. i hope that can change. steve: you've been busy. you wrote an op-ed on foxnews.com, the headline is we must stop silicon valley democrat collusion before conservatives are silenced for good. you talk about -- so many people talk about big tech and how they influence everybody's everyday life but you say ultimately the quest of the administration to regulate big tech has to do with censoring its critics. senator: yeah, what they're railing again

they are spreading the socialist and communist propaganda the venezuela, to bolivia, to nicaragua. here in the united states of america we see a socialist movement and, matter of fact, during the protest last year we saw the hammer and sickle, the communist symbol, painted on buildings in new york city. so it's spreading inside the united states as well which is why if we end it in cuba, we will end it in the western hemisphere and prevent it from spreading further. rachel: there's no reason to believe this isn't just deliberate appeasement9 of the marxists, o. communists. senator scott, one of the things people really love about you is that you really are a business person first and foremost. so why can't even florida get it done? why can't the private sector in what can be done to bypass what the biden administration is refusing to do to help the people in cuba in. >> number one, they need to shut down the ill legitimate embassy in d.c. we've got to get the internet back on. i've been talking to private companies about how to do it. they need support from our coast guard to make
