hall in new york city. [cheers and applause] - thousands of off-duty cops who normally patrol the streets now taking them over outside city hall. - i'm just tired of watching crime run rampant, and we're not doing anything about it because our hands are tied. every time we do something, it seems like we're getting indicted. - they had come for a big demonstration around city hall. you know they came prepared for the battle. you could see the anger in their faces, and you know that they meant business. [crowd chanting] - it was a show of force on the steps of new york city hall. 10,000 off-duty cops banded together in protest, fed up and angry with the city they claim doesn't back them up. the mayor's plan for an all-civilian board to review police misconduct is the last straw that sent the force to the streets. - mayor dinkins proposed a change in the civilian complaint review board that at that time had half citizens, civilians, and half police officers on it. - let's assume this is the worst legislation k

kimberly davis there, up all night in new york city. and if you're planning a trip there this year, here's a rundown of some of the things that you can see and do while you're there. # you know that. # every year we wait...#. if you're a musical theatre buff, then the recently opened museum of broadway might be something to sing about. inside, you'll find memorabilia from over 500 productions, including costumes, set pieces and props, spanning 300 glorious years of history and culture. after a two—year shutdown, the statue of liberty reopened for business in the autumn, and visitors with stamina can once again climb the 277 steps to the top of its crown. but if you don't fancy the walk up, why not take in the views from the staten island ferry? the service runs several times an hour, and it's free. if you're travelling in the spring, the brooklyn botanic garden offers a quiet refuge from the hustle and bustle of the city. its sprawling 52—acre grounds feature a variety of plants, flowers and trees, including their beautiful cherry b

new york city. but very quickly the electrical grid was extended to middle class neighborhoods in new york city so that by turn of the century, if you were living in a middle class section of new york city or middle class section of chicago or i don't know, evanston, you had electric lights. that's a fundamental transformation of the way your life works, changes, all sorts of things. just to have electricity, which is a long winded way of saying that a good swath of american society, the richest americans and a growing middle class, the industrial system wasn't, a burden at all. it was this very excite thing that was bringing a call of life to and your family that was unprecedented. and the industrial system needed those. it needed them as working people in their offices. it needed them as consumers consumers. but and you knew this was coming, but what they needed more. were people to work in the mines to work in the mills to work in the factories, to run the machines that made the industrial system

carol left new york city schools couple years ago. was equity, crt, one of the reasons for your leaving? >> we have to look at it as a -- one large woke situation that is engulfing schools. the segment you just had about not having honors classes because of equity, this is all related. it has taken hold in new york city and they believe crazy things like police officers are bad, equity, only be achieved by lowering the ceiling and having fewer honors classes. all of this is part of one bad thing that is happening so absolutely that had an effect. i have a police officer friend who left new york city because his daughter was learning about how to hate police officers. stuart: have you seen any instances of crt or other odd theories in florida? >> no, i happen. my kids and i are very on alert for it. i don't assume because governor desantis has made this kind of thing not legal in schools, that teachers are going to follow it, you see it all the time on tiktok, teachers sneaking into the curriculum anyway, i haven't had that experience

part of new york city. [dance music fades] - what we saw in the '80s was sort of that incessant appeal to white voters in different ways from different people, trying to paint particularly african americans as the root of their problems. - i always go back to "send me your tired and your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free." they didn't see black people coming also as huddled masses. [indistinct chanting] - 1989, there was a series of horrific incidents during that year, the killing of several black kids who wandered into white neighborhoods and were chased and killed for no reason whatsoever. - the fact is you can go back to that time and see the earliest political manifestations of donald trump with the central park five. - wildin'. new york city police say that's new teenage slang for rampaging in wolf packs. - a woman jogging in new york central park last wednesday night, raped and nearly beaten to death. - trump says the central park attack is just the latest example of "the complete bre

madison is live in new york city with the latest on this. madison. >> john, yes, these businesses seeing plummeting sales, and sienna big house says sales are down 25% from the beginning of the month when this hotel behind me was converted to a migrant shelter. all 50 floors being used as shelter for those migrant, and they say without the tourist foot traffic they are worried about their future as a business. take a listen. >> immediately as soon as it closed we felt a drop. the area got quieter, even locals avoiding the area, you know, trouble, stuff like that. so we don't know what's going to be the immediate, like the ultimate result of this, but usually it's not good. >> across the street at waddle cafe, the manager telling fox business "we probably lost at least 50% of what we were bringing in." both are frustrated that decisions were made without considering local new york businesses. >> they constantly do stuff like this, and they never consult the business, they are just like the little guy, all right, we'll shove a bunch of people

she lives in new york city and i go down once a month to see her and i haven't been able to see her so it's hard to air gear and get sick. my car wrote down on sunday and i called triple a and 2 boys says they have you been in contact with somebody who you know has chrome i was like no because i knew i say yes, they're not gonna cover calvin with my car. so it's saturday, april 4th, just finished a shift yann's mom. volumes are still very low in the emergency room across the multiple sites that are work out in the bay area. so another interesting development i am going to try to go to new york city to see if i can get a locals job. i think that this time is emergency medicines, spotlight i and it be kind of a shame to not see what what is going on in new york city with like i said earlier, i am feeling very fortunate that i am not full time anymore. i can see my colleagues just really drained and everyone's very aggravated with the whole shift changes because we are not working as much. and so, and i can pain and a patients. yes there. so the whole thing is just really crazy. nurses ar

i was born and raised in new york city in a lifeline. have a yankees m, i'm currently on the long stretch of work in the ideal or 5 week street and happens to coincide with the emergence of krona virus here in boston. and it's something that i think raises a lot of uncertainty and fear amongst it over there practicing because there are so many i know we don't know how bad it's going to be in the next 21. and then fairly can fornia and it was another comb day today our patient volumes at the very low and the philos. jose, great. we are running a little bit low on teaching yourself and i was unable to find an adult mask that i've got this pretty sweet kids master where they're not the best at birth. i get the job done. i am, i am an e r physician and i work at a couple community hospital just outside boston myself full time student right now i am getting my m b a from mit. and so what that really means is that i'm in classes monday to thursday, essentially are in the week and i work on the weekends. and so things have been crazy, crazy, th

new york city activists, new york city politicians want to make the city sanctuary state, place where illegal immigrants are welcome. they see actual reality of that. southern states complain about for years. called racists complain about it. they're seeing reality what it looks like. not huddled families. young men, young men who are not working, they complain of the food, not staying in hotel rooms, starting fights, hooking with each other in the stairwells. attacking people that is the reality. liz: chris beford thanks for joining us. look at this, i will be on gutfeld tonight. charlie hurt, kat timpf. watch gutfeld later on have a good night. ♪ dagen: i'm dagen mcdowell. sean: i'm sean duffy. welcom

but my question, even though new york city is essentially new york city, these migrants are saying these to mike this is not good for us and we will camp out in front of the hotels causing chaos for people because really, this is not fair to new yorkers for people to walk through this every single day. is there anything to say if it's not good enough you can leave? or is it because sanctuary city is in place, they cannot be expelled in any way, shape or form? >> they certainly cannot be expelled, but we can offer them tickets on a bus to anywhere they want to go. that is a point not being said that none of these people have a gun to their head. none of these people are forced to stay anywhere. all of these folks if they believe better resources better shelter, a better job elsewhere, they are free to leave and the city would provide them with transportation whichever final destination they would choose. they are staying here because the golden goose is pretty good in new york. we have right to shelter law, which the mayor is constrained by. he is under some obligation to provide the bare

new york city police, police officers and new york city department of corrections, other agencies in the area. and when i was in that practice, there were a lot of questions that came to mind about the way in which our system, the way in which civil litigation actually makes its way through the courts, the impact that it has on police officers and departments, because the underlying expectation is that these cases are going to have an impact, but when i was bringing these, i came to learn that in new york city, at least the money in these cases very rarely came out of police officers and police officers and departments didn't even seem to have basic about what happened in these cases, i would depose officers, meaning question them under oath, and they didn't know how many times they'd been sued or what the allegations were in cases against them, what the outcomes were in these cases and. so these were the kinds of questions that got me really inspired when i became a professor at, ucla and i started empirically testing these these questions and fast forward ten years after ten years

the changes at rikers came after new york city's mayor eric adams installed a new jails commissioner who pushed out top department leaders who were supportive of the unit and shelved a draft policy directive aimed getting more trans and gender-nonconformingetainees into gender-aligned hoing. last week, the new department of correction commissioner louis molina testified before the city council about staffing at the lgbtqi initiative unit at riker's island. he was questioned by new york city councilmember carlina rivera. >> the initiatives unit has lost three of four employees in the past year. what is the total number of staff at present? >> that particular unit, we have one executive director that is still on staff. we have vacancies in that unit as well as we have vacancies in a number of positions within the department. our challenges both uniform and 90 form staff -- nonuniform staff. people in a professional job move on to do other things. >> right now there's probably one staff member, the director? >> we have one executive director. amy: for more we are joined by george joseph

city and going to canada and new york city taxpayers are funding this, calling it reticketing. they are hopping on buses getting as close as they can to the canadian border and getting asylum and finding out how to do this on social media. one migrant telling the post, i was at the hotel, too much crime and too many drugs in the northern part of the country. southern part of the country, reports of chinese migrants flooding in. look at this from bill melugin. we have seen chinese nationals cross in recent days eagle pass tells me they have seen five chinese, four from african countries and i saw a report of an iranian crossing, a lot going on the southern border. >> griff: a group trying to take lobster off my table, not looking forward to that. >> cheryl: dark money is doing this, which is interesting. different groups are funding this fight against blue-collar workers, especially in maine, the lobster men who bring the food we love so much. look at who the donors are that are flooding the legal attack on these poor lobster men, i want to say this, all this litigation. to save

we're live in new york city with the latest. madison, this was not going to be a consequence-free decision by the city. >> that's what we're hearing from the businesses in this area. it is because things like this are happening. this used to be the tallest holiday inn in the world. now as you can see tarps cover their signs. it has been transformed into a migrant shelter. all 50 floors that were used for tourists are rented out with taxpayer dollars for shelter. small family businesses say it is destroying livelihood. without the tourists from the hotel and decreasing foot traffic business is down. the shelter has only been if place for a few weeks. the businesses fear what months will do and how it will impact them. >> as soon as it closed, we felt a drop. the area got quieter, even locals avoiding the area. trouble, stuff like that. we don't know what is going to be the immediate ultimate result with this but usually it is not good. >> chris told us he projects sales are down 25%. across the street at this cafe the manager say

we're following late-breaking news from right here in new york city. more than 20 firefighters injured battling a house fire on staten island. the details just coming in. >>> but we begin with those five former memphis police officers pleading not guilty in the killing of tyre nichols. all five charged with second-degree murder and other crimes related to the traffic stop and brutal beating that led to nichols' death three days later. the five officers the only ones in court wearing masks, standing with their lawyers who spoke for them. they were members of a special street, no disbanded. icrom h puncngnder beating him with a baton. outside court, his mother saying they didn't even have the courage to look me in my face. but she promised those officers will see her at every court date until she gets justice for her son. abc's senior national correspondent steve osunsami leads us off in memphis. >> reporter: this was the first time the family of tyre nichols was able to look into the faces of these five former police officers. >> and offer the court a p

maria: so mayor, new york city mayor eric adams took the twitter writing, quote, welcome to new york city governor ron desantis, we are happy to teach you something about values while you're here. of course, the mayor's pr woman fought right back and noted the number of people who have left new york to go live in miami saying that maybe we can teach you something but what was your reaction to that exchange? >> well, i agree that a lot of people have lift new york to live in miami. that's for sure. it might have cost governor -- what could have been future governor zeldin his new york's governor race because migration from new york to miami. i think it's a hard business proposition for anyone who is living in new york right now and a high-tax earner because by the tax code anyone who lives in new york is probably in upper tax brackets. they are paying 54 cents out of every dollar they earn in taxes to a government. that's 54 cents. that means that the government is your majority partner in your business and you don't get much of a say in that partnership state. so that's a broken syst

crime on the rise in new york city. according to the nypd there were 4% more major crimes this january compared to the same time last year. there were 15% more felony assaults. now you're a new york city guy through and through. how do you get crime back under control? >> i think it just comes down to the old rules worked and albany and new york city, mayor adams wants to do the right job. now, the state senate and assembly have the governor. they have it tied up, and the governor has to put her foot down and she could do that on the budget. there's a way to holdup the budget and not make the state senate the real governors, and i think people have to realize. new york city doesn't want to go into a recession. it's the greatest city in the world, and if we bring crime under control, and the old way? when a person had a gun? they went to jail for a year. nobody wanted to carry a gun or have shootouts. you know what they do now? they get a parking ticket, call it a act ticket and you know how many people show up for court

they love new york city. and they want to be in new york city because of all that new york city has to offer and so, that's the shift, they're renters. that's why there's a greater demand on renting. we have great universities here. none of them have sufficient housing for students so that drives the numbers here as well. >> you're implying that once people can be their own boss, set their own terms, they're out of here. >> right. >> i moved to new york city in the 1980s when i was in my 20s and new york city at the time was a mess, but i didn't care. i wanted to be here because the opportunity was here, the business i was in was here. >> i still think that's true today, wouldn't you say? >> yes i would not abandon new york city nor the people in south florida are abandoning it? they're just moving and making that their primary residence but this is still the most dynamic and exciting city in the world. but there's an age demographic when i was coming in the 1970s and 1980s, it was extremely unsafe it was dir

then new york city is just tired. if you look back at what happened over the last two years, 60% of blacks were let go because of mandate so what do they have left? they can't survive here. they're struggling and harm was done. eric adams caused harm to the people of new york. he has to be held accountable for it. >> laura: another horrifying story out of new york city is crime. today the nypd arrested two men early on tuesday morning after an armed robbery spree that spanned three new york city bureaus over a period of several hours. i'll be out on bail in 24 hours. one of the suspects is quoted as saying. joy, the criminals know they'll be released right away. they're not going to stop committing crimes. again, why would minorities at this point stay with the democrat party given the insulting treatment and these horrific conditions across the board. as trump would say, what do you have to lose? give another party a try at this point. >> yeah, at this point, we're seeing what's happening in the cities. we're seeing

york metro area, including new york city. and now rain is washing it all away into new england more snow is expected today, and that could make for a slippery commute. meanwhile in michigan, more than 1 147,000 residents spent another night in the dark. >> severe weather brought high winds that toppled trees morgan chesky starts us off. >> reporter: oklahoma facing a mangled mess homes shredded and cars tossed from terrifying tornados >> there's possibly a tornado going over us right now. >> reporter: the storm spawning nine reported twisters slamming the southern plains with devastating winds drenching rain and hail >> hello everybody okay? you in there >> reporter: the city of norman, oklahoma suffering a direct hit. >> my house is destroyed my property, as you can see, is destroyed. >> reporter: can you salvage anything >> i'm not sure. >> reporter: but dinah hummel worried less about her home than her barn full of beloved horses when the storm ripped the roof right off. as you walk in you don't know what to expect >> i'm

york city new. like i said earlier, i am feeling very fortunate that i am not full time anymore. i can see my colleagues just really drained and everyone's very aggravated with the whole shift changes because we are not working as much. and so we're not going pain. and the patients, yes, there that with the whole thing is just really crazy. nurses are really unhappy with the short staff providers because sick patients are waiting for a really long time, even though we have enough people theory at theoretically, just more setting doctors home early in. the whole thing is just crazy trying to come back on our ours because i guess we're expensive and they're not. you know, hospitals not making any money off of the elective surgeries, but i felt like today was busy regardless, so i'm glad to be done. i got an hour drive ahead of me. thankfully there is no traffic, i guess that's why the most positive things i can think of in this entire situation . me finish taking off all this for so long in some coffe

i ask that because new york's a democrat city. new york has a democrat mayor, and president biden is a democrat. and he's created this problem, which is now afflicting new york. i would have thought he's got a political problem out of this. >> well, look, he created a mess, and he did it single-handedly. he came in, changed the policies of president trump, he put in executive order after executive order that allowed for this illegal immigration. and let me also point out that well over 70% of the individuals who are entering our country claiming asylum do not have legitimate asylum claims. so it's infuriating to the people i represent who are now going to be forced to pay for this. and look how you're showing individuals who now feel entitled because they've been rewarded for illegal immigratio- stuart: congresswoman, are your constituents in new york city, are they turning on the immigrants? are they turning on biden? >> well, they've already turned on biden, and they're not happy with this mayor either. remember are, property ta

why are we up actually in new york city where it's 60 degrees. only 70 something down there why can tell we just don't have the rcars. >> i postulated that all three weekend anchors would be in racing suits. a unitard today. just to get into the theme of their weekend coverage. i bet you $100 that is not going to happen. >> guess what? i wore mine. it's a one-piece. >> brian: you should cover it? is it fire retardant? >> ainsley: we are not going to try that out. let's not test it. >> steve: thank you very much for joining us on a friday. kind of a long week. nonetheless, will and racism are having breakfast with friends along of the big race this weekend. how did you get some people in there so early? must be the coffee? >> rachel: it's the coffee but florida just loves fox news. >> steve: yes, they do. >> rachel: true fans of our network. we are excited bass we were here last year. the most beautiful sunrise. we are waiting for that to happen. >> todd: we are excited for the sunrise. we are sad, brian, we did not wear our racing suits. >> steve

"the new york times" is reporting that new york city is bussing, buy bus tickets for migrants that want to seek asylum in canada. others called the treatment inhumane. nyc shelters are really buckling under the strain of the migrant arrive will as. more than 44,000 people have been bussed to the city since last spring. last weekend the new york city mayor, eric adams, spent the night at a migrant facility in brooklyn. you're looking at the video there. there he is. he slept on a could the. he said i would never ask anyone to do something that i wouldn't do, that i wouldn't be willing to do myself. the mayor of new york city eric adams joins us now. mayor, good morning to you. thank you very much. >> good morning, don. good to see you. >> can you tell us how many mi gr -- migrants have been given ticket to go to canada? >> we don't send migrants to canada. that needs to be clear. the we're doing what other municipalities, particularly the governor of texas, was not willing to do. we found that at the beginning of this issue last year when we spoke with migrants, we learned that they were

one place named the most expensive city to be single in. where is it? lauren: new york city. singles here pay on average $19,500 more each year for a 1-bedroom comparing sharing the rent by living with a significant other. look here. san francisco, san jose, san diego, boston in fifth the. moral of the story, it is bad to be single for most people. some people like it but worse to pay more because you are single. that is all i have got. ashley: i got it, we hear it. the mayor of new york city, eric adams, is reversing his stance on remote work. he says the city is exploring ways to let city employees continue to work from home. take a listen. >> we say to our agencies come up with creative ways of having flexibility, but when you do it, how do we operate as a team? what do we do for the people who can't work from home? how do we make sure we don't create a two tiered system where some can work from home and others cannot? ashley: why the reversal? claudia tenney, republican from new york, joins us. that would have major repercussions. remote work is costing new york city an e

they were occupying boston and they were in new york city and occupying new york. they marched through williamsburg to head yorktown. so war came to women and women went to war. so we are looking at that and contemplating what that meant in all of this. so we welcome continuing this discussion with you today as we review women's wartime agency, the american revolution. and that is indeed the important point here is not just that women were active participants during the revolution, and in particular in this war, but they were also agents in this war exerting powers they had. and in a few cases, growing those powers when facing the choices, the challenges and the costs of the revolutions, which also then comprise, as do many women's wars. so this is not a time to discuss all of the women and events that were presented in book. that book is available to you if you ever want to buy that, please do head to the uva site, amazon or wherever you go for your books. but instead, we are focusing here on women who directly ignited the violence of the war. and i mean that seri

new york governor david paterson ripping new york city officials for prioritizing migrants over the city's homeless population and blasting the u.s. for allowing migrants to use its asylum system. >> what bothered me last week was when the migrants who were asked to go to the facility in brooklyn said that they would rather stay at the one in midtown manhattan. two blocks away from that hotel. there are other people out on the street who are homeless. they have problems, too, and they were citizens of the united states. i don't know that asylum isn't starting to become an industry because of so many people choosing to do this. >> in the meantime, we learn migrants from several countries, including china, entering the u.s. via the southern border. cbp said agents encountered five migrants from china along with four from african countries and three from him and appear at the republican-led house calling for an investigation to dhs secretay alejandro mayorkas. >> if you want to do it, let's do the inquiry but if we will sit around and talk about it and not do it or have action to investigate

more than 40,000 asylum seekers have arrived in new york city since last spring. some were sent here on buses against their will. we're going to look now at how many are pleading with new york officials to provide permanent and humane housing, as well as job permits so they can make a living. the city says it has opened 77 emergency shelters and four humanitarian emergency response and relief centers. but this week, dozens of migrants have been sleeping on the sidewalk outside the watson hotel, not far from times square, where they were living for weeks until city officials suddenly evicted them over the weekend to move them to a remote terminal facility filled with 1000 cots head to toe. this is labrador, a venezuelan asylum seeker who was evicted from the watson hotel. as he spoke, he held up a picture on his phone of the new site. >> it is like a jail. what is that? they take million dollars for immigrant programs -- what is that? that is no good. amy: the new facility is at a cruise terminal in red hook, brooklyn. asylum seekers who agreed to tour it on tuesda
