00:00:08.600 Update. We're out of money. I mean, we'll run out of beds in two weeks. As the shutdown deadline

00:00:14.820 looms of border czar Tom Homan warning Congress, immigration officials are running out of money

00:00:20.480 fast. I'm confident if we have the right policies, it'll be a very smooth transition. Trump officials

00:00:27.800 seeking to ease economic concerns as markets tumble amid tariff wars. Canadian Prime Minister

00:00:33.400 Justin Trudeau finally ousted by his party. And what's behind the sudden rise of Democrat Senator

00:00:39.680 Chris Murphy? All that and more coming up in just a moment on your AM Update.

00:00:45.800 Okay, so you're thinking about what to get that person who has everything. Or maybe you are that

00:01:59.660 me. House Speaker Mike Johnson likely to hold a vote later today on a six-month funding extension

00:02:08.040 to avert a government shutdown. The deadline, 1159 p.m. on Friday, just three days away. With the

00:02:15.400 House so narrowly divided and the funding bill facing full Democratic opposition, Speaker Johnson

00:02:20.980 has little room for error. Republican Congressman from Kentucky, Thomas Massey, remaining firm in his

00:02:27.120 opposition, which means every other GOP member must vote yes in order for this bill to pass the

00:02:33.240 House. Three GOP congressmen expressing some hesitation. Texas Congressman Tony Gonzalez telling

00:02:39.580 CNN he'll make a game-time decision. Political reporting Pennsylvania Congressman Brian Fitzpatrick

00:02:44.940 and Florida Congressman Corey Mills also on the fence. Speaker Johnson, however, appearing confident he

00:02:51.060 has the votes, telling reporters, quote, no one wants to shut the government down and we are doing the

00:02:56.340 responsible thing as Republicans. Speaker Johnson saying it will then be up to Senate Democrats to

00:03:01.880 do the right thing. However, the hurdle to clear the Senate getting a little bit higher with Republican

00:03:07.320 Senator from Kentucky Rand Paul's announcement, he will be voting no. Senator Paul posting on X,

00:03:13.580 quote, the bill continues spending at the inflated pandemic levels and will add two trillion to the

00:03:19.240 debt this year. Count me as a hell no. Democrats oppose the bill, saying it takes away the power of the

00:03:25.400 purse from Congress handing too much control to President Trump. As the fight over government

00:03:30.420 spending continues, the strain on immigration enforcement is becoming more urgent. We're out

00:03:36.600 of money. I mean, we'll run out of beds in two weeks. I mean, we're about 46,000 in custody now.

00:03:42.540 We ought to be about 65,000 at this point in time. And when we run out of beds, it seems we stop

00:03:48.420 interior enforcement operations because when we arrest somebody, we've got to have a bed to put them in for

00:03:51.800 removal. So Congress does. They need to get us some funding we need so this administration can

00:03:56.940 keep the promises they made to the American people. The CR contains nearly $500 million in

00:04:02.460 additional funding for immigration enforcement. Officials say they need the funding to expedite

00:04:07.140 the removal of criminal aliens from within the country. Homeland Security today announcing an upgrade

00:04:13.760 to the Biden administration's CBP-1 app. The app allowed more than one million migrants to

00:04:20.180 apply for asylum prior to arrival in the U.S. Once processed, migrants were released on parole,

00:04:26.940 often with appointments scheduled years down the road. That program ended following a day one

00:04:32.020 executive order from President Trump. The revamped app, now called CBP Home, allows illegal aliens a 0.95

00:04:39.600 streamlined process to self-deport. Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem writing in a statement,

00:04:45.380 quote, the CBP Home app gives aliens the option to leave now and self-deport so they may still have 0.96

00:04:52.080 the opportunity to return legally in the future and live the American dream. Secretary Noem going on

00:04:57.680 to say if the migrants do not self-deport, they will be found, deported, and never allowed to return.

00:05:06.940 Wall Street starting the week in the red as recession fears shake investor confidence. The Dow dropping

00:05:12.980 nearly 900 points, S&P 500 dropping 2.7 percent, and the Nasdaq falling 4 percent. On Sunday, President Trump

00:05:21.260 downplaying concerns to Fox Business.

00:05:24.160 Are you expecting a recession this year?

00:05:26.860 I hate to predict things like that. There is a period of transition because what we're doing is very big.

00:05:33.820 We're bringing wealth back to America. That's a big thing. And there are always periods of,

00:05:40.840 it takes a little time. It takes a little time. If you look at China, they have a hundred-year 0.99

00:05:46.860 perspective. We have a quarter. We go by quarters. That's true. And you can't go by that. You have to

00:05:52.680 do what's right. What we're doing is we're building a tremendous foundation for the future.

00:05:57.080 These comments after a rough week in the markets. Investors worrying over tariff wars and the impending

00:06:03.580 possible government shutdown. On Friday, the S&P closed down 3.1 percent, its worst weekly drop in

00:06:10.600 six months. Trump administration officials, like their boss, insisting the short-term pain is necessary

00:06:17.180 to build a more resilient economy. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent telling CNBC that the administration's

00:06:23.440 goal is to shift from government-driven growth to a private sector-led economy.

00:06:28.380 We are trying to transition from public to private. I talked about we are going to have safe and sound

00:06:37.960 regulation to get our banking system going again. So the banks should be generating loans to private

00:06:44.900 companies. Employment should be from private companies, not from government. And I'm confident

00:06:51.300 if we have the right policies, it'll be a very smooth transition.

00:06:55.840 The center of this strategy? Tariffs. On Sunday, President Trump doubling down on what he calls

00:07:00.840 the most beautiful word in the dictionary.

00:07:04.020 We're going to take in hundreds of billions of dollars in tariffs, and we're going to become so rich,

00:07:09.760 you're not going to know where to spend all that money. I'm telling you, you just watch.

00:07:13.520 We're going to have jobs. We're going to have open factories. It's going to be great.

00:07:16.560 For now, the markets remain skeptical.

00:07:21.300 Coming up, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau officially replaced as head of his party.

00:07:26.840 And what's behind the sudden media rise of Democrat Senator Chris Murphy? Is he really

00:07:33.160 a party star? All that and more in just a moment.

00:07:38.620 There is a real and growing threat to your home and your equity, and it's called title fraud.

00:07:43.600 Here's how it works. Criminals can forge a single document, file it with the recorder,

00:07:48.200 and just like that, your home's title is stolen. They take out loans against your property,

00:07:53.600 draining your equity, and you would not even know it had happened until it was too late.

00:07:57.900 Here's the really scary part. Credit monitoring will not protect you from any of this.

00:08:02.760 But I want to tell you about Home Title Lock to protect your home and equity.

00:08:47.840 Former banker Mark Carney set to become Canada's next prime minister,

00:08:52.220 securing 86% of the vote in the Liberal Party leadership election. Mr. Carney will succeed

00:08:57.540 current Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, who announced his resignation from the Post in January upon the

00:09:03.160 election of a new party leader. Under Mr. Trudeau's leadership, the Liberal Party

00:09:07.080 suffered declining support amid sluggish economic numbers and internal party turmoil. The resignation

00:09:13.460 of Finance Minister Christia Freeland, who was critical of Mr. Trudeau, the final breaking point

00:09:19.040 in Mr. Trudeau's nine-year run atop the government. Mr. Carney previously led the Bank of Canada and

00:09:25.260 the Bank of England. Canadian liberals believe he's the man for the moment, as their country faces an

00:09:30.300 existential threat posed by President Trump's tariffs. In his victory speech, Mr. Carney rejecting

00:09:36.280 President Trump's suggestions of making Canada the 51st state.

00:09:40.160 The Americans want our resources, our water, our land, our country. 0.93

00:09:48.180 Think about it. If they succeeded, they would destroy our way of life. And Canada never,

00:09:57.780 ever will be part of America in any way, shape or thing. The Canadians are always ready when someone

00:10:07.740 else drops the gloves. So the Americans, they should make no mistake, in trade as in hockey,

00:10:14.920 Canada will win. Under the country's parliamentary system, Mr. Carney is expected to call a national

00:10:21.240 election in the coming weeks, seeking a mandate from all voters. Mr. Carney, poised to run against the

00:10:26.960 head of the opposition party, conservative leader Pierre Polyev. Under Mr. Polyev's leadership,

00:10:32.380 the conservative party receiving a surge in support, flipping two historically liberal districts

00:10:37.380 in shocking special election upsets. Voters embracing Mr. Polyev's populist message.

00:10:43.480 Justin Trudeau does not believe in liberty. He believes in government control. He wants to control

00:10:47.380 your money. He wants to control your kids. He wants to control everything. That is illiberal.

00:10:54.760 It's the opposite of liberalism. We should put Canada first. We want to put our country first,

00:11:00.960 stand up for our country against both American aggression, but also against the destructive

00:11:07.840 liberal policies that have made us helpless and reliant on the U.S.

00:11:12.440 Mr. Polyev coming out of the gate swinging against Mr. Carney on Monday.

00:11:16.240 The liberal establishment has installed Justin Trudeau's economic advisor as the next liberal leader.

00:11:23.280 To trick Canadians into giving liberals a fourth term in power. But he's just like Justin,

00:11:30.940 and he's more of the same. We have the same liberal MPs, the same liberal advisors,

00:11:37.400 the same liberal promises who will produce the same liberal results. Doubling housing costs,

00:11:44.260 doubling the debt, doubling lineups at food banks, enriching the global elites at the expense of the

00:11:51.160 working class. Despite Mr. Polyev's double-digit lead against Mr. Trudeau, the Trump tariffs inspiring

00:11:57.820 a surge in support for the liberal party. The liberals, whose approval rating had been hovering

00:12:03.320 in the low 20s, climbing to higher than 30 percent, up 10 points since January. Canadian pollster at the

00:12:10.360 Angus Reid Institute finds 43 percent of Canadians believe Mark Carney would better handle negotiations

00:12:16.380 with President Trump versus 34 percent who choose Pierre Polyev. The liberal party seeking to capitalize

00:12:22.960 on this momentum as more Trump tariffs are set to kick in April 2nd.

00:12:30.900 Secretary of State Marco Rubio in Saudi Arabia today meeting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky's

00:12:36.380 top aide, Andrei Yermak, in an effort to revive peace talks. The AP reporting two anonymous sources

00:12:42.620 say the Ukrainian delegation is ready to sign the rare earth minerals deal during the talks.

00:12:48.680 The Ukrainians are likely also to propose an air and sea ceasefire in Ukraine, a move meant to

00:12:54.980 convince President Trump the Ukrainians are serious about reaching peace with the Russians.

00:13:00.260 Special Envoy Steve Wyckoff expressing optimism that a deal will be made.

00:13:04.780 Does it get done this week?

00:13:06.840 You know, Bill, I hope so.

00:13:08.660 Zerlensky sent a letter to the president. He apologized for that whole incident that

00:13:15.440 happened in the office. I think that was an important step. And there's been a lot of

00:13:22.000 discussion between our teams and the Ukrainians and the Europeans who are relevant to this discussion

00:13:29.060 as well. And I would like to describe it as progress.

00:13:33.720 While en route to Saudi Arabia, Secretary Rubio, speaking to reporters,

00:13:37.520 stated that depending on the outcome of the talks, the U.S. may be prepared to lift the pause on

00:13:43.580 military aid and intelligence sharing that President Trump put in place after the Oval

00:13:48.800 Office tension. He added that his visit aims to assess what concessions the Ukrainians are willing

00:13:54.360 to make. As Democrats struggle to find their footing in the second Trump administration,

00:13:59.660 Democrat Senator from Connecticut Chris Murphy attempting to fill the void with digital content.

00:14:04.540 Senator Murphy's social media videos, often selfie style, regularly going viral, despite his status

00:14:11.300 as a rather middling lawmaker.

00:14:13.540 Donald Trump doesn't care about the destruction of Medicare or Medicaid or the Department of Education

00:14:23.080 because it doesn't impact him.

00:14:26.500 Republicans never want to fix the immigration system.

00:14:29.020 Their motivation is always to make it more chaotic and more confusing.

00:14:33.520 Guys, the whole game is Trump doing favors for his billionaire friends.

00:14:40.020 The New York Times reporting in February, Senator Murphy doubling his Instagram followers over the

00:14:44.880 previous two months, racking up almost 30 million impressions on the platform, a rising star in the

00:14:50.760 media. Some recent headlines, the Hartford Courier, Connecticut's senator leading the national

00:14:56.080 resistance against Trump. NBC, how one senator is placing himself at the center of the Trump

00:15:02.000 resistance. The Hill, Murphy looks to be guiding force for Democrats in new Trump era. But some now

00:15:08.820 questioning whether his surge in visibility is purely organic, especially given reports that his

00:15:15.100 alleged new girlfriend happens to run a progressive media company funded by George Soros and Reed

00:15:21.660 Hoffman. Semaphore reporting Tara McGowan, CEO of Courier Newsroom, posted a selfie of herself and

00:15:28.380 Senator Murphy last week on her private Instagram, captioned, quote, not postponing joy. Courier

00:15:35.080 Newsroom is often criticized by the right as a Democrat outlet posing as a news network. The Washington

00:15:40.380 Free Beacon referring to it as the George Soros funded Democratic propaganda network. The New York

00:15:45.620 Post reporting Ms. McGowan has used her personal platform and position for years at the digital

00:15:51.240 outlet to promote Murphy. That activity ramping up in recent months during the time in which we know

00:15:57.500 Senator Murphy separated from his wife of 17 years. That happened last November. The reports indicated

00:16:03.960 they are not divorced and remain legally married. And that'll do it for your AM update. I'm Megan

00:16:11.720 Kelly. Join me back here all week for our special series, Megan Kelly Investigates on the disappearance of

00:16:18.120 baby Lisa Irwin, a 10-month-old girl who disappeared from her crib in the dark of night. It will air on
