sandra. >> sandra: thank you, john. a town in the arizona desert gets frozen out from the water supply as the community's long time water supplier, the neighboring city of scottsdale has turned off the tap for hundreds of homes. and scottsdale officials are saying drought has forced them to do this and they need to conserve water for their own buildings. but it's not adding up to the rio verde residents, who say they are violating the law. cody's water has been cut off and leading the protests against the city. cody, this is hard for many of us to fathom, living in an american community where the closest city or town that controls the water supply says all right, times are tough, we don't have enough water right now, and we'll get their explanation in a second. we are going to cut off your community's water supply, and leave all these homes and residents without water. what is that like, first of all? >> well, first of all, thank you john, sandra, for having me here and hearing the rio verde foothills plight we are in.

sandra. >> sandra: disturbing details. thank you. >> john: joining us now is brian claypool, and based on the reporting, a bloody rug, knife, hatchet, a hacksaw, police searching a wastes transfer station, brian walshe buying hundreds of dollars of cleaning supplies, searching on google how to dispose of 115 pound body, alleged lies to police, do you have any doubt what likely happened here? >> john, nice to be back with you. yeah, i mean, the evidence looks daunting for him, and we now have a means and motive, right. she apparently -- she was having her washington condominium set up for her kids to live there. you know, put together three bedrooms, had means, motive, but look, two reasons why he has yet to be charged for first-degree murder. the first is we don't have a body. the first element in a first-degree murder charge is you have to have an unlawful killing so they are searching frantically for the body. it's harder to prosecute without the body. without the body, you have to proof the death through circumstantial

sandra. >> sandra: let's bring in charles payne now, ok. get us started here. medicare, social security, if they are doomed, does this give republicans more leverage in this debate? >> oh, absolutely. the president of the united states has to make sure the folks get their money. all kinds of gimmicks you can pull, social security, they have assets, they have bonds, they can sell the bonds, go a little longer, medicare, medicaid, ask for delayed payments. >> sandra: at the very least, a wake-up call. >> massive wake-up call, 79th wake-up call. 79th time since 1960 they will raise the debt ceiling, and every single time we say ok, it's sobering, figure out all of this out, we just -- just does not happen. >> sandra: larry kudlow was on this program yesterday and he did not mince words. >> he did not. >> biden and the democrats are absolutely incapable, incapable of telling the truth about this story. they will do anything not to cut spending. after $1.7 trillion omnibus bill full of waste, fraud and abuse. we can't find a penny on the dollar to cut? >> sandra: ca

sandra. >> sandra: interesting look there. mark, thank you. john. >> john: bring in town hall.com editor, a tense memorial between biden and amlo, did not seem to be a fan of president and the policies, said the moment to due away with the abandonment, disdain of south america. >> president trump was able to get a lot out of the mexican government with illegal immigration, he offered punishment if they did not do their job to stop the illegal flow up to the united states to our southern border. now we have the current mexican president demanding more money from taxpayers, american taxpayers if they are going to deal with this problem on a larger scale. when it comes to what the white house has been saying about this visit and the deliver rables at that they say they are going to get, they put out a white house fact sheet this morning, a long list of items. they have commitments on things like climate change and emissions and trade, but in terms of stopping this problem of illegal immigration, completely destroying southern border communities a

good monday to you, sandra. >> sandra: and you as well. six new items of classified documents were seized from the president's wilmington home after the fbi searched the property for over 12 hours on friday. >> john: some documents recovered were from biden's tenure in the senate 14 years ago raising questions over whether it has been a pattern for the president to mishandle classified information for more than a decade. now house oversight committee chairman james comer is officially requesting the secret service reveal a list of visitors to the home, information the white house believes should remain private. >> sandra: we have complete coverage for you now. house oversight committee member and california congressman ro khanna is standing by. but peter doocy is live on the north lawn to kick off for us. what details are we learning about the latest discovery? >> sandra, we are learning the fbi searched everywhere, so they did not just go through file cabinets and that means when the president was going about his business here on friday,

sandra. >> sandra: casey, thank you. john. >> john: now new york city, grocery store owners say they are sick and tired of scenes like these. thieves looting the stores and taking whatever they want only to get a slap on the wrist so that they can come back and do it again. stores and pharmacies have locked up goods such as razor blades and cosmetics, even toothpaste, now they may lock up the spam in order to combat the rampant shoplifting. joining us now is jason farrera, good of you to be with us this friday afternoon. how bad is the situation at your stores? >> hi, john. thanks for having us. yeah, it's become something that we had not seen for years. i grew up in the food business and i remember my parents having a store in the late 1970s, early 1980s, it was a normal thing to see shoplifting because we were in low income neighborhoods, but we had not seen something like this for years, it's become so frequent and reminder of the past, except we are in a different era now, and law enforcement is not helping us in any

sandra. >> sandra: ok. so, jeff, by the way, hello to you, always love getting jeff flock on the air. live at the white house, by the way, john, you owe me a beer, because the white house briefing has indeed begun and jen granholm, our energy secretary is now speaking. we'll dip into the briefing as soon as karine jean-pierre begins to take questions. of course our interest is in the growing biden documents scandal. peter doocy is in that room. we will get to that briefing room as soon as she starts taking questions. and jonathan turley, by the way, says the president's defense is becoming unsustainable with every new discovery. he will explain why when he joins us next. helping them achieve financial freedom. we're investing for our clients in the projects that power our economy. from the plains to the coasts, we help americans invest for their future. and help communities thrive. lomita feed is 101 years old this year and counting. i'm bill lockwood, current caretaker and owner. when covid hit, we had som

sandra. >> sandra: jonathan turley joining us now, george washington university law professor and fox news contributor. thank you for joining us. terrifying and shocking what these kids are taking in, is anybody responsible for it other than the parents who should be monitoring them? >> you see, that's the problem. you can agree with everything factually stated in the brief about the crisis that we are living through. we do have a huge increase in anorexia nervosa and eating disorders and psychological issues coming out of the pandemic. there is clearly a connection to social media. but you can agree with all that and still not agree with this brief. i am extremely skeptical about the basis of this brief. i'm equally skeptical about a school district spending money to advance these types of arguments. there are a host of different bodies, including congress, who are looking at social media. i don't think the school district needs to get into this fight, but the legal basis for this is very weak. it's sort of a digital version of the big gulp laws, it's saying don't feed this stuff to

a big friday eve, sandra. >> sandra: it is, the first hour

>> well, not very much, sandra. the white house wants to talk about pretty much anything but these investigations. you know, we get near daily memos from white house spokesperson andrew bates, ragging on the gop from everything from the deals kevin mccarthy hashed out with his conference to become house speaker, to talks surrounding the debt limit, like this memo, from tuesday. new reporting cements house republicans are so dead set on slashing medicare and social security they are taking more steps to set off an economic meltdown unless they can force their ultra maga plans on the country, and even president biden is putting out messages hitting the gop over twitter. >> isn't this crazy n republicans came to congress talking a big game about bringing costs down. right now, 30% national sales tax while tying our country's hands when it comes to lowering gas prices. i can't believe i have to say this. members of the congress should be making your costs lower, not higher. >> amid all the tough talk, biden is set to me

>> that's right, sandra. this push comes after he used the encrypted app signal to send this to current general counsel, he said i'd really love to reconnect and see if there's a way to have a constructive relationship, use each other as resources when possible or vet things for each other. he faces up to 115 years in prison and this one individual he sent the message to is known to have information to incriminate the cryptoking. so they said the proposal to vet things with each other suggest witness tampering and they are seeking to have him not contact all former and current employees. and from signal or other encrypted app, you can send messages to auto delete, something sources close to him share he's done in an effort to evade detection. his lawyers are firing back, saying he is no longer using the auto delete function and should not be banned to talking to anyone, it should be a short list, and imposing a blanket restriction would remove an important source of personal support. any legal sources tell me

sandra. >> sandra: a major story developing in virginia that we have been watching a lot of people are talking about this, trace. virginia is investigating now why some schools are blocking merit scholarships for some kids. governor youngkin is speaking out and says the scandal is so much more about scholarships, strikes at the ideal of america. vivek will weigh in. hey, man. nice pace! clearly, you're a safe driver. you could save hundreds for safe driving with liberty mutual. they customize your car insurance... ...so you only pay for what you need!

sandra. >> sandra: and we'll be watching for that. john. >> john: fox news contributor, jonathan turley. so, jonathan, as the investigation goes on and the classified documents found in various locations throughout the mid atlantic region in the possession of joe biden, now growing calls for the university of delaware to open up the doors on the so-called ok box of all of the documents, 1850 boxes worth, from his time in the senate. can we make the logical assumption that if there were classified documents found in his possession at his home in delaware from his time as senator, there just might by 1 or 2 at the university of delaware. >> well, john, we know that the risk is obviously clear, you know, you have a president who appears as senator to have removed material while he was a member of the senate, that was classified. we also have heard reports that he wrote classified material into notebooks that were also seized. there is a huge trove rainfall documents from that period sitting at the university of delaware. some of us have

>> it does, sandra. i can tell you as a member of the senate intelligence committee i see a lot of documents badly overclassified, sometimes i point them out to intelligence officials and say this is classified but having a trouble finding a secret in the document. can you point it out to me. that said, it does not mean all documents are overclassified. the government has some extraordinarily sensitive secrets and information and they should be handled with care. what we should have had is the fbi becoming the enforcement arm of a bunch of left wing librarians at the national archives as opposed to dealing with president trump exactly the way they dealt with president biden, and past presidents, which is working a cooperative fashion to make sure there's been no endangerment to the national security with mishandling of the classified documents. >> trace: senator, the border now, it's clear the cartels are dominating the southern border with the drugs and trafficking and smuggling, and california cartels
