Unless they address daca which is the key issue. republicans do not want to do a daca deal. they know democrats have the upper hand and they are worried they have to agree to something the base will balk at and come after leadership if they do. i think its interesting and i know conservatives are happy that this meeting didnt happen. they are worried that president trump would give democrats what they want on daca. just a couple of weeks ago, the president had this tentative outline that he agre...

My opinion of the structure has not changed. i still think its an awful example of a bureaucracy that has gone wrong when it is almost entirely unaccountable to the people that are supposed to oversee it or supposed to pay for it. by the way, im just learning about the powers i have is acting director, they would frighten most of you. doesnt surprise me, by the way the extent that we are having a succession challenge launched by ms. english. it doesnt surprise me that that grows out of an agency...

President? >> don, what is it going to take? sanders caucuses with the democrats and schumer and his colleagues in the u.s. senate have given him a leadership role to be out there for democrats. what does it mean? does is simply mean having a "d" behind your name? i traveled the last 60 days and talking to people on the ground, they are hurt. this is about restoring your democracy. i just reject people it is not the time, when is it going to be the time to have some transparency and accountabili...

According to eyewitnesses, perhaps 70 miles per hour, four minutes after he started, 911 calls started coming in from folks who were on the scene here who were taken aback by what they were seeing and hearing. so all of it went down fairly quickly, katy. >> craig melvin, thanks very much. president trump wasted no time seizing on the attack and laying some of the blame squarely at the feet of democrat and senate minority leader chuck schumer but two republicans arent having any of it. >> i dont ...

He said i want merit based. we are fighting hard for merit based immigration, no more lottery systems. we must get much tougher and smarter. notably he tags fox & friends who just discussed the visa program minutes earlier. i reached out to the white house to see if they have any comment. they are not commenting yet so we cant say for certain that the government has determined that this is the program through which he came to the u.s. chuck schumer posted a statement saying the president should ...

Tweeting, "the terrorist came into our country through the diversity visa lottery program. a chuck schumer beauty. i want merit based." and in response, i guess its not too soon to politicize a tragedy. sought to end that program in the big immigration reform package of course that never passed. the president kept up pressure when speaking on camera later today. >> i am going to ask congress to immediately initiate work to get rid of this program. diversity and diversity lottery. diversity lotte...

Down the visa lottery program that sent the alleged shooter to our shores in 2010. >> work with congress on the diversity lottery program on getting rid of it, a merit-based program based on merit. >> the program has been in place 20 years by senate democrat leader chuck schumer, shut down in 2015, a war of words between schumer and the president playing out as schumer accuses the president of playing politics so we will see. the us attorney, a civilian court left the door open. heather: a lot o...

Thats dangerous for him. the mueller investigation may be winding down. why kick up a storm where it looks like you are influencing the justice department. hands off, stay away. where the president is right is a week and a half or so ago when fox and odders were talking about uranium one and there was mocking in the media and then the dossier and donna braziles book. nancy pelosi and check schumer said we dont want to relitigate the 2016 election. are you kidding me? they have relitigated this e...
