Laura good evening this is the Ingraham Angle from washington. Thank you for being with us. We got the transcript of Hunter BidensDepo On Capitol Hill yesterday. All right, were going through it page by page. Its even dog eared highlighted the and tabbed. Weave will bring you all the juicy details in moments. First, Dueling Border Visits thats the focus of tonights angle. Bad, bad poll nuns. Very bad poll numbers thats the reason and the only reason that the white house decided to send biden finally to the border after years of avoiding it like the plague. Now, by traveling there today, the same day as trumps visit, biden hoped to kind of steal trumps thunder. But Texas Governor greg abbott set the crowd straight. We have President Trump back in the state of texas literally on the border itself at the very same time we have President Biden down in groupsville, texas, which was an obligatory visit by him. He had never been to the border. In fact, i dont think is he on the border itself right now i is in some kind of sanitized location it. Goes to show biden does not care about either texas or the border and whats going on. Laura oof he has never been better than he was today. Biden went to brownsville, not to tucson, not to the san diego sector where reported from. He didnt go there because he didnt want those visuals because there is no defending whats happening its a stream of humanity, a lot of working age men lined up yesterday to be released into the United States now, only a few dozen illegals crossed near brownsville this month vs. Where trump was. So, who won the border duel . Its real simple. Its time to act. Its long past time to act. I just received a briefing from the Border Patrol and theyre all doing incredible work under really tough conditions. Really tough conditions. They told me what what you already know and we already know. They desperately need more resources its time to step up. Its time to step up. Lets remember who we are. We are the United States of america. Laura weird. Now, trump didnt need to pretend to be outraged because he has been on this issue for decades. Last year almost half of all ice arrests were criminal aliens charged for more than 33,000 assaults, 3,000 robberies, 6,900 burglaries. 7,500 weapons crime. This is all migrant crime. 4300 sex crimes. 1600 kings and 1700 homicides and murders. Just one week ago a beautiful 22yearold Nursing Student from georgia was barbarically attacked almost unrecognizable while she was out on her morning run. I spoke to her parents yesterday. They are incredible people. They are devastated beyond belief. Laura in 2015 when trump announced his run for the presidency, when he came down that golden escalator, he talked about the crimes committed by illegals. When he did that the press went bananas. How dare he speak about that way about those poor people and here we are. What is it almost nine years later when horrific crimes are being committed by illegals against innocent americans. The press still doesnt care. All the data shows that the crimes committed by undocumented immigrants is much lower than crimes committed by others. But, there have been some high profile crime. You are going to continue to see donald trump seething on that from now until november. Seizing on it because collateral damage. Any crime committed by illegal against american should never have happened because they shouldnt be in this country. Again, the press is not worried that too many illegals are coming to the United States, among them criminals. The press is worried that tough policies could stop more from coming. Do you get a sense in speaking to migrants that policies here in the United States might actually alter their decision . I think it comes down to the level of desperation. They have to monitor the ocean at night for people who will be dropped off. That determination is fueled by the desperation. Yeah, that Desire For Freedom and prosperity for so many migrants undeterred by policy. [laughter] laura did you get what happened there . Undeterred by policy. Now, forget the hardworking americans hoping for prosperity. Forget those people. They dont count. Now, americans know that trump has credibility on the border. Mumbling, stumbling biden has zero. And a hastily organized visit accomplishes nothing. Neither did his lame attempt to resurrect that sham Immigration Bill that went up in flames. By the way, a Talking Point given to him by mitch mcconnell. This bill was in the United States senate. It was on its way to being passed. Then it was derailed by Rank And File rank partisan politics. Conservative leaders supported this. And lets remember who we are. We are the United States of america no, i mean this. Think about this. Theres nothing, nothing beyond our capacity, nothing. Laura border. Why did you gut all of trumps Executive Orders day one . Look, lets keep it simple. Trump enforced the border and started building a wall. Biden opened the border and stopped the walls construction. Joe biden lied to america when he told america that he needed congress to pass laws for him to be able to do something about the border. Because there are three laws that congress has already passed that are on the books right now that biden could and should enforce. Biden not only is not building any borders, biden is using every tool that he can to tear down the borders that texas is putting up in our stated. Laura Legacy Of Joe Biden isnt just dead americans killed by illegals. Its dead migrants who died during their crossings or children abused and trafficked. Our next guest tweeted that just yesterday in eagle pass where trump was texas dps found five unaccompanied children traveling with 60 illegals all adults and the kids were ages 5 to 11. One had a torn piece of paper saying to go to new york. Another a piece of paper listing a town in texas. And the biden campaign, it wants voters to believe that all of this, everything you have been seeing over the last many, many months and years, is the fault of House Republicans and donald trump . Good luck selling that story line. Even with the help from the press. Remember what we have always told you. The democrats policy is to keep the border open, period thats what their donors demand. Thats been their policy for years and thats what biden will do in his second term. The only time you are going to ever hear them touch on the issue of enforcement, pretend to care about enforcement, is when they are in political trouble and, boy, are they in political trouble. And bidens trip today proves that their focus groups and polls are telling the white house the same thing they are telling the rest of us. Their open border policies could cost them the 2024 election. And thats the angle. Joining me now is lieutenant chris olivares. Texas department of Public Safety spokesman and texas lt. Governor dan patrick. Dan, lets start with you. It was a powerful contrast today. Brownsville just a couple dozen illegal crossers vs. Where trump was eagle pass several hundred every week and previously had been thousands before texas did what texas did. Yeah. Laura. When i hear the president and any of the democrats try to blame the republicans on that bill that it was a bipartisan bill, no it wasnt. It was about four idiot republican senators and all democrats. Who wanted to pass the bill. That was it. Republicans didnt sign off on that bill and the American Public knows that having a bill that allows 5,000 people in a day is still close to 2 million a year. This is a joke. And, look, laura, you have republicans who watch. You have independence and democrats that watch. Im telling you all, folks, you better pick a side or you are going to lose this country. And that next person thats killed by a drunk driver who is here illustrate llweleynly the next person thats murdered could be your wife, your husband, your child. This is going on all over the country. You better pick a side. You are either for a secure border and for this country or youre not. Forget your labels of being an independent or democrat or a moderate republican. If donald trump does not win in november, and i believe hes going to handily, but, if he does not, this country, laura will be lost. We lose the country. Laura yeah. A few years ago, chris, the Biden Administration was bragging about their record on the border. Watch. I would like to understand from you what trump era Immigration Policies have been banned, ended, reversed and if any investigations are underway by you. So, we have rescinded so many trump Immigration Policies it would take so much time to list them. Laura ha. Lt. Olivares, mayorkas said today there is no Executive Order that biden can put into place that would help the border. No Executive Order but you see mayorkas bragging about how they rescinded the Executive Orders. Right, so you know there for a fact thats a blatant lie. They are lying to the american people. They have caused this Border Situation for the last three years that we have been dealing with in the state of texas. You see all the criminal activity thats taking place. Of course, laken riley just that tragedy that took place at the hands of illegal immigrant that should have not been in the country in the first place. You look at the fentanyl crisis. The thousands of americans that have lost their lives every single year because of fentanyl poisoning. And, yet, they still refuse to acknowledge the fact that we have a border crisis. They continue to gaslight the situation. They continue to gaslight to the american people. And the state of texas stepping up for the last three years because of our leadership, governor abbott, the lt. Governor, our legislature giving us the equipment, the funding, all the support we need to do our job officially. And i think its been a testament to what we have done in texas. You look at brownsville. You look at eagle pass, those are areas that we have secured because of our efforts to the military and through our state troopers. The state of texas is leading the way as far as sciewrk the border. That is something that the federal government refuses to do. Laura i have never been more proud of texas than i am now because first sending those migrants to liberal enclaves that was brilliant and now taking the border seriously and doing the work that joe biden wont do. By the the way, dan, biden spoe today about the asylum process. Watch. This for those arriving at our border today the process to get a decision on asylum claim takes five to seven years. Yall know it down here but the people around the country dont understand it. Its far too long to say well, okay. Can you come into the country but come back in five to seven years. Maybe as many as 8 years and you get a hearing from before a judge to determine whether can you stay. Lawrks he doesnt have a clue what he is talking about. Not a clue can. And was i asked the other day what three things should we do today, if texas was in charge . Number one, we put back title 42. The trump policy that kept the Asylum Seekers in mexico. Number two, like President Trump, did you go mexico and you tell the president that if you dont stick the army, their marines on their side of the border and stop this, you are going to put a tariff on everything they sell. And, third, you take our great Border Patrol men and women and instead of treating them like hotel clerks, ushering people in the door you let them do their job of law enforcement. We have a senate bill 4 pushed back in court yesterday. It will win in the fifth circuit. It will go to the Supreme Court and allow texas, laura, texas to defend our own border. We will hire every one of these Border Patrol agents who want to come to work for us, we have got the money. They will come to work for us. We will tell joe biden and the federal government to get the hell out of the way and we will secure the border for america. We must stop. This people are dying every day at the hands of joe bidens policies just think what you have to spend that you shouldnt have to spend because of this . By the way, the white house released a Statement Today coining, giving a new nickname for illegal aliens. Okay . The senate bill also includes 1. 4 billion for cities and states who are providing a Critical Services to newcomers. Okay. Newcomers. So now, they have i dont know if illegal aliens to undocumented immigrants to undocumented citizens, to undocumented democrats. Now they are just newcomers. Lt. Olivares, take it away. You know, laura, thats disgraceful. We dont need new laws there are already laws on the books. We he knee for a fact. We know the federal government can enact those policies that were effective and they can secure the border. We know that was working prior to 2021. We have seen that and we have seen what we have been able to do in texas. So the federal government has the ability. They can take Executive Action and close the border and secure it and prevent tragic crimes that are taking place across the country at the hands of illegal immigrants. They refuse to do that. They continue to play politics. But, of course, again as the lt. Governor mentioned the state of texas we are going to continue sentencing up and we are not going to back down because we have leadership that is willing to take on the federal government. Layer lawyer well, as i said in the angle, their policy is to maintain an open border. That is their policy. And every voter out there has to understand that lt. Olivares, mr. Lt. Governor, thank you so much. Now, were democrats caught lying about what hunter biden said yesterday . My team is still poring through the 229page transcript. And they have all the details. We have them next. There are some things that work better together. Like your Workplace Benefits and retirement savings. Voya provides tools that help you make the right investment and benefit choices. So you can reach todays financial goals. And look forward to a more confident future. Voya, well planned, well invested, well protected. Hunter, how did it go . How did it go . Great. Laura well, that was spin because now we have the transcript. Now, the 200plus page document about the 7 hour deposition that hunter did it contains all sorts of interesting nugget and juicy gems. First, hunter admitted that he put his dad joe on Speaker Phone with his Business Associates and then that he invited him to drop by his business lunches. Remember this is international business. But is he adamant that his dad was never involved in his business dealings. Try to figure that out. But what about that inconvenient email that referenced his familys business with china . Remember it proposed that 10 be held by h. For the big guy. We all know who the big guy is, right . Well, hunter couldnt make heads or tails of that one. He was asked by Congressman Matt Gaetz why at that time he didnt take issue with that reference 10 for the big guy. Hunter insisted that he never saw that email and said that if he did, im certain that what i would have done is i would have picked up the phone and said youre out of your mind. Joining me now is josh hawley, republican senator from missouri. Senator, he had another convenient bo bout of amnesia or confusion about things i cant imagine most people who are sentient and i dont think he was always on drugs, was he, would have a decent recollection of. Yeah he either had amnesia my favorite line about the deposition so far asked about certain Text Messages hugely incriticalating. I was high at the time or maybe drunk. He has amnesia. Hes drunk. He is high and apparently he cant go anywhere without daddy but thats normal for a 40somethingyearold grown man thats what we are to believe this. Is ridiculous. Is he trying to play us for fools. Everybody knows the truth here. He just confirmed it that biden participated in the lunches. He met with his Business Associates. He was selling access to his dad. I mean, its clear as day. Laura well, his attorney, abbe lowell, who gets paid a pretty penny per hour. He said that republicans, this is just more fishing expedition. Watch. The republican majority ends the day with where they started. They have produced no evidence that would do anything to support the notion that there was any Financial Transactions that involved hunter with his father, period. There is no evidence because there is no evidence and today only confirmed that. Laura senator, this is all they have as if we are expected a check to be written Out By Hunter To joe or by a Chinese Energy company to the former Vice President saying notation line saying thanks for the help through via hunter. Thats not how these things work. But, of course, thats all they really have. I can understand now why hunters lawyer doesnt want him to testify in public or to answer any questions in public. Because he just confirmed the core of the houses case. He just told them joe biden was in the meetings. He just told them joe biden was on the phone. These were the smoking guns that democrats earlier said oh, thats not true. Thats all made up.
