Do you think of using an emergency to get what you want? >> lets just speak at a practical matter. if the president sneezes, somebody is going to file suit in the ninth circuit court to say that its unconstitutional. so if the president declares that he wants to use in a declaration process, money for the southern border, its going to be tied up in court. whatever we say about future implications, it will not be effective because of the inevitable lawsuit. again, thats why i think we need anothe...

Of the president, then candidate trump, who talking about mexico paying for the wall and obviously, hes talking about changing our trade agreements and boosting the economy. neil: i dont think that was obvious. >> it wasnt obvious to me. neil: he never said im going to extract this from the trade deal >> but we all knew that was the platform and they were robbing us, remember all of the rhetoric neil: pay for it means pay for it whether it means i write you a check i say im going to give you mon...

Neil: all right. senator cassidy was a little earlier in the last hour here outlining a plan that might be acceptable to both sides, even though democrats do not appear to be very keen on it, that use the funds taken from the drug runners along the border here, billions of dollars, which are gathered each and every year and use that to pay for the wall. id want to get reaction to all that with democratic california congressman john ga garamundy. >> that would probably work, but theres an issue s...

And avoiding in raising those examples is that theyre all over the map. >> yes, absolutely and in the past a lot of democrats have supported some sort of physical barrier on the southern border and now they dont. now theyre saying its immoral and i think that a lot of it does have to do with the fact that they want to oppose what president trump wants. this shutdown is going on so long because i dont feel like anyones really trying. i think that people are trying to kind of boost their brands by...

The president can look like hes fighting. but even if he wins, our borders are going to be insecure. and part of it is because of what were spending the money on. >> outgoing republican senator bob corker voicing his concern that a border wall will not alone increase border security. joining me now democratic representative of california, a senior member of the armed services committee. always good to see you, sir, especially on a holiday weekend. thanks for joining me. >> my pleasure. >> do you...

We just need a comprehensive plan here. we need this president to stop all of this huffing and puffing, sit down and develop a comprehensive plan. one more thing. you have got to deal with the problem in the central american countries. you have got to deal with the problems of poverty. you have to deal with the problems of crime there. otherwise, people are going to leave. and we should understand that. >> and to your point about drugs coming to this country, i had a guest yesterday talk about t...

The trick for them, they have drawn a line in the sand of building a wall on the southern border of the united states. it is hard to see why the democrats would back down too much at this point. also, remember, whats on the table here is a continuing resolution, a short-term budget deal that would expire in february anyway. one of the things democrats need or are talking to themselves about is if they bend here and trump gets x billion for something, he may come back and shut down the government...

To agree to some kind of physical barrier along the border as part of this spending deal that could then get the government back up and running. so the big points of contention are what kind of barrier and how much money will congress have to fork over for it. >> but definitely something physical. they want something that everybody can see and point to, correct? >> reporter: right. >> okay. thank you so much. well see you next hour. lets go to capitol hill. by all accounts at this hour it is a...

To where its going to be, let alone what it is going to be and even more important what good it would do if it would be built. it is 1,700 miles of border between the united states and mexico. where is he going to put this wall? there is no way congress should give him $5 billion basically as a slush fund to do something. is it slats? is it concrete? he has no idea other than a campaign promise. we wouldnt give the military 1$100 million to build a hanger on some airfield without specific plans ...

Happened and the backlash to what the aclu is calling a culture of cruelty on the border. this is how it made me feel. it was like that feeling when youre mowing the lawn on a sunny day... ...and without even trying, you end up with one last strip thats exactly the width of your mower. when youre done, it looks so good you post a picture on social media. and it gets 127 likes. geico. fifteen minutes could save you fifteen percent or more on car insurance. fifteen minutes could save you opportuni...
