I'm Dave Anthony. It's not just a case of terrorism in the Boulder, Colorado attack.

The suspect was in the U.S. illegally, overstaying a visa he got during the Biden presidency. They systematically, deliberately, intentionally just opened the border and let 10 million people come in and then no enforcement of people who overstay their visa, whether it's a tourist visa, a student visa, what have you. So I think all that together creates the climate where we see these terrible things happen. We speak with House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan.

I'm Grinnell Scott. There is good news in the fight against fentanyl overdoses. The deaths it causes are down across the country, and our vigilance is much of the reason for that. All these efforts have been happening for years and years on the ground, and they're starting to bear fruit, and there are fewer overdose deaths now. And I'm Jason Rantz. I've got the final word on the Fox News Rundown. ♪

Mohammed Soleiman is due back in court tomorrow to face state charges in Sunday's Boulder, Colorado terror attack, including attempted murder. He said he wanted them all to die. He had no regrets and he would go back and do it again. That's acting U.S. Attorney Bishop Gruhl, who's charged Solomon with a federal hate crime. This monster used a makeshift flamethrower and Molotov cocktails to light Jewish Americans on fire in an attempt to burn them alive.

The victims at the incident location in Boulder were there to rally in support of Israeli hostages who remain in Hamas captivity. Twelve were injured, including a Holocaust survivor. And there is another issue White House Press Secretary Caroline Leavitt is focused on.

Solomon was in the U.S. illegally. He'd overstayed a tourist visa that expired in 2023. Instead of deporting this heinous individual, Joe Biden's administration allowed him to stay in our country and to work. And that work authorization expired in March.

And the Boulder attack comes after last month's Washington, D.C. shooting at the Capitol Jewish Museum where a man who also shouted free Palestine killed two Israeli embassy staffers. It's a sad, unfortunate trend we're seeing of these terrible events, evil events.

Congressman Jim Jordan is a Republican from Ohio, chairman of the House Judiciary Committee. I think the environment the left has kind of fostered and promoted is what leads to some of this terrible stuff. You know, you got what's going on in college campuses where the left just teaches all kinds of crazy anti-Semitic stuff and tolerates all kinds of anti-Semitic activity. We saw that in these college campuses over the last several years. You got the left in their...

You know, the almost is creating this moral equivalence between the actions of Israel defending themselves up at our October 7th and saying Hamas is, you know, it's crazy. And then, of course, you add to it the visa overstay issue, what the Biden administration did for four years when they systematically, deliberately, intentionally just opened the border and let 10 million people come in and then no enforcement of people who overstay their visa, whether it's a tourist visa, a student visa, what have you. So I think all that together creates tension.

the climate where we see these terrible things happen with the embassy, the two deaths of the Israeli embassy personnel in D.C., what happened to Governor Shapiro's home, and of course, the latest thing in Boulder. Both of these things. Let's get into the anti-Semitism first with what's happening on college campuses. What do you think ought to be done? Because obviously those on the left say, look, that's free speech. The students are allowed to be doing that. We did this. We sent letters to Secretary Blinken and Secretary Malorkas in the last administration, last Congress,

after this crazy stuff where they took over the buildings in Columbia and the things they were doing. We said, are any of these people who have been charged with criminal activity? So that should at least be a line that's drawn. Any of these people involved in criminal activity, were they here on a student visa? And Marcus didn't answer our question. We sent him a letter. And then we sent a letter to Blinken saying, if any were...

have their visas been rescinded and they've been sent home? And Blinken returned, at least responded and said, "We don't know of anything like that." Because he didn't know because Mayorkas hadn't passed that information on. So again,

That, to me, seems where you should start, but the previous administration wouldn't even answer our letter. The current one, though, is Secretary of State Marco Rubio, very involved in trying to revoke the visas, deport some of these people. That is the right approach. And they even want to stop some foreign students from coming in. That's why you have vetting. Yeah, if students really come here and learn, God bless them, okay. But that's why you vet people. That's why you look into it. That's why there's a process to make sure you're not having...

crazy guys like this individual in Colorado. This suspect in Colorado came here on a tourist visa and that expired. He got work authorization under the Biden administration. That expired, which means he's overstayed his welcome and is here illegally. He had applied for asylum.

Those are not necessarily the people who come across the border that we saw, the gotaways and all that. This is a little different. Yeah, they still should. Like, there should have been some consequence for someone not following the law. But with the Biden administration, I think they were so focused on

making it easier for people to come in the country. They probably didn't even take the time to focus on this. But you've got to do all of it. I believe the Trump administration is. Kristi Noem is our Secretary of Homeland Security. Tom Homan, I think they are. And then one of the things we've done in this –

in the legislation to deal with the border situation, not exactly on point with the visa overstays, but in the big beautiful bill that came out of the part that came from the Judiciary Committee, we allocate resources for 10,000 more ICE agents. We allocate resources for more detention space so people who do try to come in, you make sure they're not released into the country. This legislation, as you know, now that it's in the Senate, I want you to hear from one of your colleagues, Senator Rand Paul. He's one of those in the Senate who...

does not yet support the bill that you passed in the House. I can't be on record as being one who supports increasing the debt by $5 trillion. I think that's irresponsible. Now, he also says that to offset the tax cuts which he supports, there is something else in the bill related to border security. Increasing spending for the military and for the border, $300 billion. That's actually more than all the doge cuts that we've found so far.

So something doesn't really add up here. Now, President Trump posted on True Social that, you know, Senator Paul Zeno on everything has crazy ideas. The people of Kentucky, his home state, can't stand him. Yeah, well, I will tell you specifically on the resources allocated to maintain border security, which President Trump's now got under control. Initially, there was a request, I think, for $110 billion coming from our committee. We got that down to $80 billion. So we did reduce that because we think...

You don't need quite as much as they initially thought, as the administration initially thought. And then we also, with different fees we're charging people who do apply for visas, who come into the country, we took the approach that the taxpayers of this country shouldn't have to pay for border security. It should be the people coming here on visas. So we think that's good. Overall, though, this bill's good. I wish it had more savings. I get where Senator Paul and Senator... They say it's going to balloon the debt and the deficit. I see where they're coming from. We do need more savings, but we also got to get the votes to pass it. And you know this is... I've said this on the House floor.

said it many times since, you know it's a good bill because the left hates it. I mean, they do. They don't like it because it cuts taxes, lets families keep more of their money. They don't like it because it actually makes sure the borders stay secure. They don't like it because it makes able-bodied adults who are getting your tax money

in our social welfare system, it makes them go work. Imagine that. They've got to do something. Well, they say it's going to kick millions out of their health coverage. Totally false. Take away all the food assistance. Totally false. It says to able-bodied adults, if you're getting Medicaid, you've got to work.

Medicaid was designed for people with disabilities, single moms, kids. That's who it was designed for. If you're an able-bodied adult, we're not taking it away from you. We're just saying you got to work for goodness sake. Everyone else has to work in the world. And I think it's going to promote economic growth. I mean, the numbers are good right now. We saw the Atlanta Fed numbers yesterday were really good. You've seen that consumer confidence is up, inflation's down, unemployment's low.

I think you're starting to see the Trump economy begin to happen. Now, if the Senate makes big changes in order to mollify Senator Paul or Senator Johnson or some of the other Republicans who don't like it as it is, is it possible that the House would reject it? I mean, is it possible that this bill fails? No, no, it's going to pass. I mean, we have to. We have to.

I always say we make the job of being in an office in Congress or in politics. We make it too complicated. It's pretty simple. What did you tell the voters you were going to do when you ran for it? If you win, go do what you said. We told them we were going to do this. We're going to cut taxes. We're going to secure the border. We're going to have work requirements for people in welfare. You were going to repeal and replace Obamacare. That didn't happen in the last administration. I know. That's because John McCain did the thumbs down. But I do think we will get this done.

I think Leader Thune understands that, Speaker Johnson, our entire team. I hope they get a few more dollars of savings on the Senate. I hope Senator Johnson is successful with some of that. But they've got to balance their votes, too. You know, you've got Susan Collins and Lisa Murkowski and Ron Johnson over here. So you've got to balance that, just like we had to in the House. Threading a needle. It sounds very difficult. Yeah.

I want to get to former President Biden. Certainly on judiciary during his administration, you investigated him and his family and their business dealings. And there were a lot of pardons that came out at the end of the administration. The Justice Department under President Trump is investigating those pardons. There's a whole investigation also that you were in the House and also the Senate are doing on his cognitive decline and what might have been done to cover that up. I want you to hear that.

from former President Clinton. You might have heard this already. CBS Sunday morning when he was asked about the mental fitness for President Biden. I had never seen him and walked away thinking he can't do this anymore. He was always on top of his brief. You never saw any cognitive decline? So I didn't know anything about any of this. I saw President Biden not very long ago and I thought he was in good shape. Yeah. What do you think?

I mean, that's not what the American people saw. I mean, look, we all got common sense. We all saw it. And in the left, I read Tapper's book last week because I had to fly to Iowa and back and forth and had time to read it. You know, it's like, look, I always say this. The left has a template and they follow it all the time.

The left will tell a lie. Joe Biden's just fine. Well, the whole world saw, particularly during the debate. In fact, they knew he wasn't just fine because after the debate, they changed their candidate. And he dropped out, yeah. Right. So the left will tell a lie. The mainstream media will report the lie. Big tech will amplify the lie. And then when you tell the truth, they call you a racist. Or they'll call you something else. They'll attack you personally. They'll come at you. They'll say, oh, you know, they'll attack Fox News. They'll attack anything conservative. When you're pointing out the truth. But

after some time will be proven accurate. And then by that point, they're on to the next line. The process repeats. So it's a template they follow, a process they follow all the time. They tried to do the same thing with Joe Biden. Even Jake Tapper now admits they were covering up. It was it was a lie.

But what do you want to do when you're on the Oversight Committee, you're investigating, you want to talk to members of his administration, the Senate, he wants to talk to former Vice President Harris and the Cabinet. Yeah. What's the goal here? Well, you know, Chairman Comer is running the investigation on the House side.

Again, we'll see what we get. I think some of these guys, if you bring them in, like Reschetti, Klain, Zients, these key people who were around President Biden and some of the people around the First Lady, will they claim executive privilege? Probably. Are you going to get a whole lot from them?

I think, unless you're going to have someone come forward and say, okay, I'm going to become like a whistleblower and just spill the beans. We all knew he had no clue what was going on. But what does that lead to? Even if you have subpoenas and all these people, what... I think maybe all it can, in the end, probably can accomplish this is that it alerts the country, we just don't want this to happen again. Like, so many times that we've seen actions from...

from what the end of the Obama administration and then some of the things we've seen the Justice Department do and then what we saw during the Biden administration. We want to stop it from happening again. And sometimes the best way to do that is for Congress to do our oversight, which we're constitutionally required to do, get the facts to the American people.

and in detail, as much detail as we can. And then you just go from there. - What about the pardons that they're looking into? And they say that the president couldn't have known about some of these things. There were thousands of them and then his family members, Hunter Biden. - He certainly knew about his family members. - Can anything be done about those? Those are pretty hard to overturn, aren't they? - They are, and the pardon power is exclusive right of the presidency. The president has that and it's really broad and he can pardon pretty much whoever he darn well wants.

I think the big takeaway is he told us he wasn't going to do it and then did it. And he just lied to the country. So I'm not going to pardon Hunter Biden. I'm not going to pardon my family. And then he did. Maybe even a bigger issue is the pardons on all the people in the January 6th committee, which I think sort of underlines what many of us thought that committee was totally political, didn't do what it was supposed to do, didn't give us all the information. One of the things we're looking at is that the January 6th committee did it. There were 26 confidential human sources at the Capitol on January 6th.

Confidential human source is a fancy name for spy, informants that were there. Some of them were actually asked to be there by the FBI. So the fundamental question, first question is, what's the FBI doing having spies at a First Amendment protected political rally?

So they did. 17 went in restricted space. They weren't authorized to do so. Four went in the Capitol. They weren't authorized to do so. I want to know about these guys. How long have they worked? What were they paid? Was any of their testimony used to convict American citizens? I think that's pretty important. So we're focusing on the Judiciary Committee on getting information about those 26 individuals. There's a lot going on for you right now.

right now, even though it's almost summer. Yeah. Thank you very much. Congressman Jim Jordan, Republican from Ohio, Chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, member of the House Oversight Committee. Great to have you on. Good to be with you, Dean. Thank you.

I'm Dana Perino. This week on Perino on Politics, I'm joined by my friend, former chief of staff to House Speaker John Boehner and senior advisor to President George W. Bush. It is Barry Jackson. Available now on FoxNewsPodcast.com or wherever you get your favorite podcasts. This is Jason Rantz with your Fox News commentary coming up.

Across America, the numbers show us that overdose deaths from fentanyl are dropping significantly. A recent analysis of U.S. overdose data conducted by University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill researchers says deaths began dropping in late 2023 when they peaked at 114,000. Now the CDC suggests they're below 87,000.

Efforts both in public by scientists and doctors and privately by families and those who have lost loved ones to the powerful opioid have made a difference. But we can't discount the political impact as well. White House Press Secretary Caroline Leavitt this week said President Trump's current policies matter.

This administration's strong border policies are the reason there has been a decrease in fentanyl trafficking. His strengthened relationship with Mexican President, and

All of the measures he has been taking to deter illegal human and drug trafficking at our United States southern border is the reason for plummeting fentanyl seizures at the U.S. border. In May, U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi said national enforcement efforts led to an historic fentanyl bust that stretched across five western states. The DEA seized...

11.5 kilos of fentanyl, including an astounding approximately 3 million fentanyl pills. A new report just out details the decline in fentanyl deaths, but it does not diminish the grief and loss that has touched many of our friends and neighbors.

So I think first and foremost, the statistics and numbers tell one part of the story, but what most people are experiencing on the ground every day might not jive with that. Dr. Nabarroon Dasgupta is a scientist and researcher at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. In the United States, four out of ten Americans know someone personally who's died of a drug overdose.

And that's a lot of grief and that's a lot of trauma that's kind of accumulated in our communities that has really forced people to act and take responsibility to do something. So all these efforts have been happening for years and years on the ground and they're starting to bear fruit and there are fewer overdose deaths now. But when you drive around in major cities, in cities

places where there's a lot of visible drug use, the problem doesn't seem visibly like it's gone away. But what we do know is that fewer people are dying and there are fewer terrors in the fabric of our communities. At the same time, we have a long way to go.

Let's get into some reasons for these drops we're seeing across the nation. I know there have been lawsuits around the country by state attorneys general against drug makers, pharmacy companies on opioids in general.

But money from those lawsuits that have been won have gone towards programs and ways to make a difference in the battle against these fentanyl deaths. And also the education that I guess people have been encouraged to get about what the effect of this powerful drug is. Is that what we're seeing as part of the reason for

this drop, the education and people actually trying to do something to build programs to get those numbers down? Yes, absolutely. I think there's a heck of a lot of people in small towns across America, like the ones I grew up in in Maine, where there's a lot of people taking care of their own. And there are nurses we've spoken with in Louisiana who started a great drug treatment program from their hospital emergency department.

We talked to Native American groups in Wisconsin who are doing amazing things like getting their people housed and getting them drug treatment. There's a lot of naloxone, which is the antidote for overdose being distributed by EMS groups and ambulances in North Carolina. And I think it's like every place you go around the country,

There's a lot of people doing the work that needs to be done on the ground, but they're doing it with humility and they're doing it quietly and they're taking care of their own communities. And I think that is the untold part of why there have been the declines in overdose is that people are actually stepping up when you have four out of 10 adults knowing someone who's personally been, who's died from an overdose.

That's when people step up and that's exactly what the data are suggesting. What we've seen is a gradual decline in overdoses state by state over the last two to three years.

And overall, from 2022 to 2024, we're seeing about a 30 percent decline in all drug overdose deaths across the country. But you're right. Some places in the West, on the West Coast and the Rocky Mountain West are also kind of struggling a little bit more than some of the folks back in the East Coast.

Before the election, political candidates, mostly Republicans, have been hammering the effect of fentanyl on this country. And the closure of the border, the mitigation of people coming across the border is something that the Trump administration has championed. Does that have an effect at all on this?

Sure. And I think politicians, Republicans in particular, have been really on point in pointing out that this is a very critically important problem for the future of our country in terms of solutions.

The border and the supply is definitely changing. We can see that in our lab where we test drug samples from around the country. And we can see things change when things happen at the southwestern U.S. border. For example, about 90% of what gets seized at the border is going to be methamphetamine or marijuana.

And when we see a lot of methamphetamine being confiscated at the border, our drug sample data from around the country tends to get more adulterated. So like the powder methamphetamine gets stepped on or cut and you'll see the number one thing that it's cut with is fentanyl. And some of that's by accident. Some of it's maybe just sloppiness.

And so what ends up happening with some of the border interdiction is, especially with the stimulant supply, is it ends up exposing a newer population to fentanyl who might be meth users or stimulant users who are not used to having fentanyl in their drug supply. And that puts them at greater risk. So that's like one side of it.

On the other side, the actual volume of what's being confiscated at the southwestern border when it comes to fentanyl, a lot of that is pills, and they're fake pills that contain fentanyl. And a lot of times what we're seeing, especially in the southwest, or hearing especially in the southwest, is that there are times where there's almost no, or it's very hard to get any fentanyl.

In other parts of the country where it's a more powder-based supply, that hasn't been quite as much of a direct correlation. So I think border and addiction is something that's just part of the U.S. drug policy response. There are some positives, there are some negatives, but it's not like any particular thing that's particular to any political party as far as I can tell.

There seems to be a bit of a concern that there may be a rise coming as far as fentanyl deaths, maybe to pre-pandemic levels. Talk a little bit about that.

So I think we're in this unprecedented moment in American drug history where the drug supply is really poor quality, and especially the illicit opioid supply. The fentanyl that's coming in is pretty terribly made. And there's a lot of folks who are

encountering illicit opioids that are cut with other things that give them skin wounds and cause other health problems. And so the overall satisfaction with the drug supply is really low with illicit opioid supply.

And this is a moment where if we do things right and we're smart about it, we can get people who are super hooked on fentanyl off of it and actually tamp down this problem and close the loop on a generational level instead of kicking the can down the road. One of the things that the data specifically are showing is that the age of people dying of overdose is getting older.

And what that means is that it's really the millennials and Gen Xers who are the ones who are experiencing the burden of overdoses. And Gen Z is like not really picking up the opioid habit.

There's two specific drugs that are waiting in the wings. The one that concerns me most are the nitazines, and they're a class of synthetic opioids. This is what has been the plague in Europe for the last few years when it comes to overdose. And they've had a really hard time because the nitazines are about the same or much more potent than fentanyl, and they're much harder to detect.

In some of the literature I've seen, and you kind of alluded to this earlier about the quiet work that's being done, those unseen things that are being done, those family members who are learning how to use Narcan and to apply it. And to those maybe who have been hooked on fentanyl, who are seeing others going down that road and say, hey, don't do what I did. Don't suffer through what I've suffered through. How important is that to you?

on the ground to keep these numbers down. Look, like I've spent the last 20 years like trying to get people to not use drugs harmfully, right? Not use harmful drugs. And it's very rare that I can tell someone or convince someone by speaking that like you should really think about not doing that.

But what does change people's minds are their experience of seeing a loved one who has gone through these really hardcore drug problems. Right now in the United States, we have one and a half million children who have lost a family member to a drug overdose. That number is really astounding. So I'll give you a megaphone as the last thing I ask you to do here. And if you could talk to everyone out there and say, OK,

from my recommendation, this is what needs to happen in mass across this country to keep those numbers of fentanyl deaths down. What would you say? I'd say take care of your own. Look into your own communities. Do what you can. Get people onto treatment. Treatment that works, like methadone and buprenorphine specifically. Get people Narcan or naloxone to reverse overdoses.

And just be prepared that it's going to take folks a few times before they really commit to that kind of change. So I would say celebrate any positive change and, you know, be there for your people.

It's time for your Fox News commentary. Jason Rantz. What's on your mind? Seattle is actively waging a war against Christian worshipers in the First Amendment. This isn't hyperbole. It's a city-sanctioned, left-wing media-backed, far-left crusade to stomp out any faith that dares exist outside their secular progressive orthodoxy. And the Trump administration is taking notice, potentially stepping in where city leadership has refused to protect basic rights.

Over the last two weeks, Seattle's animosity towards Christians have been on full display. Two weeks ago, Cal Anderson Park, made notorious as the main staging area for Seattle's deadly autonomous zone in 2020, became ground zero for Seattle's unhinged war on faith. Mayday USA, a Christian group, gathered for a worship rally under the banner, Don't Mess With Our Kids. They opposed gender transition on minors, a mainstream position that Seattle treats as fringe. But the majority of the event was singing worship songs, dancing, and offering kids free haircuts.

Far left agitators, the Antifa cosplay crowd masked as always, swarmed the park, launching urine filled balloons at worshipers, hurling water bottles at police and physically assaulting both officers and civilians. Twenty three arrests. A police officer was hospitalized and all because a group of Christians had the audacity to pray in public in the tolerant city of Seattle. How did Democratic Mayor Bruce Harrell respond? He ran interference for the attackers and then had the gall to blame the worshipers.

Quote, on Saturday, our city saw an extreme right-wing group rally at Calendarson Park, attracting both supporters and counter-protesters. While we respect the right to free speech and peaceful assembly, it is clear that intentionally provocative rallies designed to attract confrontation place a burden on our communities and law enforcement resources, the mayor's office said in a statement. Translation, if Christians get attacked in Seattle, it's probably their fault for being so provocative with all that worshiping. Maybe if they'd just stayed home and streamed a drag queen story hour instead, things would have been quieter.

But the far left wasn't finished. Later in the week, worshipers and their supporters showed the kind of courage this city's politicians can only pretend to possess. They rallied at City Hall, demanding the city finally do its job and protect the right to worship. And again, it was a positive event filled with public displays of faith, singing and dancing.

They were met by a mob that harassed, insulted, and at times assaulted them. Let this agitator swarm Christian moms and their kids as they left the rally, screaming obscenities not just at the supporters, but at the cops there to keep the peace. Eight more arrests. This is tolerance in Seattle, just so long as you're on the right team. But don't hold your breath waiting for city leaders to condemn the violence. That's exactly why it keeps happening. Now, the official line is that the worshipers themselves are the extremists.

This narrative is parroted endlessly by local media bolstering the political position from the mayor's office, which insists these events were, quote unquote, designed to attract confrontation as if public prayer is some kind of riot bait.

The Seattle Times described the worshippers as far-right protesters, but the description of the thugs who committed the violence and harassed children? Merely, quote-unquote, pro-LGBTQ plus protesters. No ideological identifier. Let's be honest. If any other minority group was targeted in this way, the outrage would be deafening. But for Christians? Silence. Or worse, blame.

But there's a glimmer of hope, though it's predictably not coming from Seattle City Hall. The Trump administration is now watching closely. Both FBI Director Dan Bongino and White House Faith Advisor Paula White say they're reviewing the events. The message is clear. If Seattle won't protect basic rights, the Trump administration just might. But it shouldn't come to this. The Trump administration shouldn't have to remind Seattle what the First Amendment actually means and that political violence, in all forms, is wrong. I'm Jason Ranz. ♪
