Minutes. yesterday, dhs sent a letter, or maybe this morning, which said, instead of helping to secure the border as the president has repeatedly asked congress to do so, bipartisan bill would do the exact opposite and make our border far more open and porous. the changes proposed by schumer -- would effectively make the united states a sanctuary nation where ignoring the rule of law is encouraged, and just before we went to air on this program the white house having background conditions call s...

Serious? >> remember, senator schumer shut down the senate. the schumer shut down because he was so focused on the priorities of illegal immigrants as opposed to american citizens. it is time to act. the bills are on the floor to be debated and discussed. democrats dont want to seem to now want to move ahead with it. for my part i want to make sure we have a secure border and the laws are enforced and make sure our citizens are safe. president trump has laid out a four-point plan, four pillars o...

Uh huh, sure. still yes! xfinity delivers gig speed to more homes than anyone. now you can get it, too. welcome to the party. yesterday was blocking production first amendment which would target sanctuary cities. schumer said the issue had nothing to do with daca or border security. today democratic senator mark warner emerged from a bipartisan meeting though sounding optimistic. watch this. >> i just came from a very productive bipartisan meeting where i think the group isy,close. the challenge...

At the same time, democrats are saying we need to have a path for dreamers which is what we support. he wants this to stay in the public debate and doesnt want this issue to go away. >> kill berle, how long is this going to go on, this death rattle? three or four days of debate arguing about things that theyll never agree on sanctuary cities and never agree on family unification. they could probably agree on inches of the wall if they could get account dreams are free for that. schumer would lik...

Its officially under way. the question is what is going to lead to a solution or if there is any solution at all. listen to what the two leaders. mcconnell and schumer had to say on monday. mcconnell making it clear. he is behind the republican proposal that mirror what is the white house put out. schumer saying tailor things a little bit more. >> it is our best chance to come to a solution to resolve these matters which requires a bill pass the senate, pass the house and earn the presidents sig...

>> our mistake i think, you cannot just run against donald trump. it is the job of we democrats to put together a strong, cohesive economic group of proposals aimed at the middle class and those struggling to get there. thats our job as democrats. we have always been the party of economic advancement. and i think we may have lost some sight of that. >> you and i have both lived through mid-terms. some good well, less well when youre in power. what do you think? are you with the schumer you cant ...

Angle. the past few days have convinced me more than ever that the democrats and their american media are feverishly attempting to use the hashtag #metoo 4s undoing. now that they have extracted this and the budget bill, they have essentially given up on the idea of working with the republicans to actually improve the country and solve some problems. nancy pelosi, schumer, have come to the conclusion that thats the only way to beat trump is to avoid it debates on his policies, which lets face it...

Looks like it was written by steven miller. thats what were likely to see. thats one of the reasons why so many democrats voted no on the funding bill last week, because we thought it was the only leverage we had to get a good immigration bill in the house. >> but what could you -- could you accept some funding for the wall? >> yes, i think so. i dont think -- >> $20 billion? >> i dont know what the number is, but i think democrats are willing to compromise. they just dont want to see something ...

Has. and no doubt we will in the next few months. >> martha: molly, what do you think? >> when the nunes memo was about to be released they said it had sources and methods. we all know now it wasnt filled with things that had to be kept secret. what people on both sides of the aisle do say is the democratic memo has sources and methods that are in there that might make it truly impossible to be totally revealed. i think at this point just get it out. just get it all out. even if it has sources a...

I supported the bill. as you know all too well and your listeners hear this quite a bit. when our bill went to the senate. you cant pass it with just republican votes. schumer extracted additional spending. we had a choice in the house. do we take the deal that chuck schumer threw more spending into which gets our military back on track to address the needs that we have in the world, or do we say no and keep these really horrible budget caps on the military that dont let them accomplish their mi...
