9:07 am
everyone and this is a huge success for us this year. arthel: i know the residents are very concerned about safety as well. our most college students showing up for spring break can you tell or are other people showing up for the party? >> a little bit of a mix for the problems we've had in past years have not been college students it has been people in their men, late 20s and 30s who are kind of using the attraction to come here and cause problems. that is been the issue. that is why at spring break might not be the correct terminology but the bottom line is the formula is the same throughput in these measures to keep people safe. our residents were demanding at many of our businesses were demanding it. other than a couple of businesses that brought this lawsuit and lost, really almost uniformly everyone in the city is appreciative of the drastic actions we have taken which have

general mackenzie was a mckenzir of all forces in the middle east. where were the disconnects between what they were advising and the decisions joe biden actually made? he has repeatedly said the buck stopped with him he takes responsibility. but then in the same breath he said the whole thing was an outstanding success. we don't biden has said on national television he was never told that he should leave a small group of special forces, intelligence and other support operatives, 2500 to keep a lid on the taliban and prevent this catastrophe from happening. yet we see him reporting the generals totally contradict that it they say in fact they did advise him to leave that small force behind not to do fighting but do the logistics of the intelligence, the air support, those types of support mechanisms to keep the afghan army going and keep the taliban and al qaeda from taking over.
9:23 am
i want to know the decisions about the airbase the only base in the world that is sandwiched between in china, russia, and iran and could also keep a lid on global terrorism. who decided to get that base up? by the way had the prison that released the suicide bomber that hit abbe abbey gate a few weeks later. the allies were completely on board with this. yet we have our allies telling us they were infuriated and were not informed. what do the generals have to say about that interaction? the list is so long on this debacle. i will say one final thing i want to get to the bottom of. biden and blinken repeatedly said there were only about 100 americans that were trying to get out that could not get out. yet since a very quietly revise that number to nearly 1000. which was it? it is a fundamentally un-american to leave fellow
9:24 am
americans behind but wheat yanked all of our military out we did not have the ability to go get them. those are just a few of the many questions i have it. before as you point out general milley and other leaders advised against pulling the troops out pretty point out the loss of the air force base what is the deep meaning that we don't have that foothold there in that country as you point out and a very strategic part of the world. >> a while air force base could house our largest bombers. and other things to go after terrorism. that base is only a few hundred miles from china's western border. were their entire nuclear arsenal is located. it is closer to china than mexico city is to the texas border. we gave it up for nothing. it defies all logic if we ever have any type of conflict in the
9:25 am
western pacific, that will have been a critical airbase that we would have given up. and one other question since i still to this day and getting desperate e-mails from our allies, our interpreters and others that we left behind that ttaliban are hunting down right now as we speak. were there plans advised of the president to begin evacuating them before the collapse? myself, other democrats were begging pleading open up in guam as we did in vietnam. open up some of our bases in the middle east. the pentagon testify they were ready to do that. did biden shut that down for reasons that i don't know i am looking for some type of explanation. eric: finally the president said he was handcuffed by former president trumps deal with the taliban facing that deadline that he had no choice and he blames a former president, your reaction to that?
9:26 am
>> look at the long list of trump policies and biden have no problem tearing up on day one. all of our border policies, remain a in mexico, the ironic deal, the paris accords, i could keep going but he has no problem walking away from those literally in the first week of his presidency. but suddenly he is handcuffed by the deal? which by the way trump himself said the taliban did not live up to the deal we are leaving our troops, we are leaving our base. that's a bunch of baloney getting the generals and validation will be incredibly important. sparnumeral two of the general s about on this. thank you for your service. >> thank you. arthel: up next the search for a message college student continues in nashville. we will speak to a family friend on how his family is coping with his disappearance. you are watching fox news live.

9:33 am
through breaches in the border while to get into the country because those parts of the border are now some of the easiest for cartels to get people across now. those are just the people who want to turn themselves over to border patrol we are also single lots of cases like these in new mexico human smugglers working for the cartel snake dug in dozens of migrants across the board and tried to get them further into the country. texas is seeing fewer border crossings overall but the human smuggling operations have not slowed down. last week texas dps track down this cartel smuggler who was caught hiding under a bush in laredo texas with a small group he was trying to sneak across the border and into the country illegally. in that same area law enforcement found 14 people the cartels were smuggling in the back of a semi trailer 10 of them from guatemala, four from mexico the driver from houston is now facing charges of human smuggling. enforcement officials stressed w important busting those types of

smuggling operations are because every person they catch is someone who did not want to be found and otherwise would have been another got a way to get into the country adding to the more than 1.8 million known and got a ways we have had the last three years. eric: alr all right garrett at e border thank you. arthel: the search is on for 22-year-old riley strain university of missouri senior has been missing for over a week. he was reportedly lasting getting kicked out of a bar in downtown nashville after a night out with his fraternity brothers. they reported him missing the next day. joining us now is ch krista dinn eight lifelong friend of riley strain family. first of all what is the most updated information you have on your friends whereabouts? >> most updated we have right now we know the local nashville police have a couple of persons of interest they would like to interview. there is no sign of bell play at

9:36 am
i'm not saying anything negative about the nashville police force, more eyes, more agents, more people looking at this it may give us a fresh look on where we are currently stalled that at the moment. arthel: we are not sure, there may be there working on bringing in other agencies with the search for riley. but you weren't there that night, but what do you know about what happens? as far as you know? >> a little bit of the timeline is riley's mother and a young lady riley was saying literally talk to him. his mother communicated him about an hour before the last phone ping went. nothing in the conversation along the lines of what we watched in the videos. a lady that had reached out to him right after they've gotten into luke bryan's and barr had asked him how he was doing. he replied back in a text good
9:37 am
lop we were scratching our heads trying to figure out what new sling that was it's nothing. it's the state of mind riley was at that moment that was the last text or conversation that any family member or non- fraternity brother have received. just makes us think even more something m maven slipped into s drink and changed him because that is not like riley he is very punctual. loves doing texting and moshe's and exclamation marks he is a very thorough young man. none of that m makes sense to te family. arthel: we do have a statement from l luke bryan's bar in parti will read it for you it says during riley's visit to luke's theory to bridge our records show he purchased and was served one alcoholic drink and to waters.

body actions are what happen from that bar forward is what we know of riley and how he acts. we are not holding luke's responsible for any of that. we understand there could've been something happened before and out of their hands we are very thankful they have been cooperating with the police every step of the way. we just need answers. arthel: we are showing a description of riley strain 65 -- 67160 pounds, thin build, blue eyes, light brown hair. chris we wish you and chris and michelle the parents all the best in finding riley strain thank you for joining us big. >> we appreciate you keeping the story fresh thank you for what you're doing. arthel: of course. eric: was on the hopi's falvey president biden taking part in the st. patrick's day festivities at the white house as his administration responsive former president trump's
