Who represented Government Employees to put a face on this incident. We had an individual let us know that recently his wife died. He is unable, at this time because of this shutdown to pay for her headstone. And he said at the tail end of his commentary to us that he is broken hearted over that. And you know, that, i think in some ways, incapsulates whats going on and happing to federal workers. Our federal workers do a Great Service to this country. And to be treated the way that they are is indeed unfortunate. Now remember the president said he would own this shutdown, he, however, seemed to be pinning the blame on democrats. Hes also threatening to close the southern bord wr mexico if they dont fund the border wall. Reporter no real word from the white house today on any progless made in the Government Shutdown. Its unclear either side is communicating. The last we heard from mulvaney was when he told report thorns north lawn that talk husbas hadn down. The president signing an executive order late last night that froze pay raises for federal workers in 2019. The president indicated in a letter to the omb he was planning to do Something Like this as earl ea as august of this year but of course at this time with the government shut down and the workers either furloughed or having to face the fact that they may not be paid until early into the new year, it does add insult to injure a in some degree. The freezing of the pay raises does not include most members of the military and form could be include in any bill. Then it becomes a potentialing chip. Mull vein a said he believes all the cards are in the hands of nancy pelosi. He mated the case that she wants the shutdown to guarantee her votes for speaker oof the houses. According to our count she had the votes to become speaker well beor the government shut down. Democrats are essentially saying theyre not going to give the president funding for his border wall. Dont forget that democrats promised theyre going to bring up one of three potential measures as soon as they take power january 3rd. None of them include any funding for the wall. In the meantime Government Agencies shutting down and workers who are ultimately going to have to face difficult times. Theres a list of agencies that were going to be shutting down. The the smithsonian museums and national zoo will be shut down january 2nd. The federal Communications Commission will cease taking complaints and the federal trade commission is having to suspend their investigation into facebook potentially inappropriate use of users private data. As this shut down continues, more people feel thefects and still it doesnt seem theres any new Common Ground between theetds two sides. Thank you so much. Well, this shut down is effecting thousands of federal workers who will not be getting a paycheck until this is decided and Congress Approves the back pay and theyre talking about this on social media, about theyre worried about how to pay their bills. And to real ea highlight, here to talk about what theyre tweeting. It highlights this isnt about numbers. This is about people and their lives. Im surprised almost at how candid theyre being on social media. Were haring more and more of their heart wrenching stories where their incomes have been zeroed out and their are having to focus on essential expenses. Year hearing from federal workers and veterans that depend on pay ecwhiches to keep things going. A marine corps veteran says my children dont care about walls. They care about food in their belly, none of which is possible if their mom cant go to work. Ernie jaungsen, thankfully my auto loan was deferred. If no back pay, ill likely be evicted february 1st. Melissa says shes a disabled veteran whos been waiting for service coneced surgery over a year. Yes, it takes that lodge. Cant get at my final approval, its making my future kausz there are so many Government Contractors not getting paid and we do not get retropay when the Government Shutdown is over. That is just gone forever. And heres what laura is tweeting. I depend on this that comes outoo federal correctional officer paycheck so i wont have the funds for after school care or lunch. People being so kand utd. And its a stretch across the country. Because the misnomer is theyre kau concentrated in and around washington d. C. Were going to bring in political commentator. Is as well as kin tributor for spectator u. S. A. Lets listen to garth here. Representative said democrats are prepared to vote. Theyre prepared to vote on the bill, on any bill that comes to them that has gone through and passed thesont committee. But then he said this about President Trump refusing to accept any legislation that does not embrace funding the wall. Thats not compromise. Thats not working with together to accomplish an objective and he made promise that was not ill informed, ill advised promise and said the mexican people were guying to pay for it. He should have kben it was baloney. Is there a political price to pay the longer this goes on because it looks as though there really is no negotiation going on . There is a lot of belonny. There is a political cost because there are lots of Public Employees who are not going to look kindly. Not going to get more favorable over the next few days as the 116th congress is sworn in, theyre not going to make lifer easier for the republicans. So pat roberts said we are on the we on inrepublican side dont dont want to vote for a bill the president wont sign. So the onus is on the democrats. Is he trying to say that republicans hands are tie snd i feel like everybodys hands are tied. You have nancy pelosi vacationing in hawaii when were hearing stories of federal workers worrying about having to pay their bills. Donald trump said public lay in his famous meeting, i would be proud to shut down the government for the it border wall. Its very hard to paint this as the democrats problem. And the white house does actually keep coming down. They demanded 5. 7 billion. I heard latest was down to 2. 5 billion. The democrats are saying no and i think they think they can do better and lets face it senate voted unanimously for the bill that can fund through february 8th with no wall at all. Once that happened you had prominent conservatives saying this is disappointing, outrages and donald trump immediately back tracked and they once voted for a bill without a border wall. Why wont they do it again . He was supposed to be in maralago. Canceled that because of what theyre dealing with right now. Should other members have stayed perhaps to work this out . I dont know if they ahave the votes to do that. Paul ryan could have tried a couple of different bills. But the congress is over. There was nowhere else for them to go. He wasnt going to be able to force his members, many of who lost their races. Once thav it rr lost their jobs, theres no point in can coming wack. They werent able to do very much. And the democrats certainly didnt have to come back either. They had no reason to. This is a question for the congress and its going to make it much harder for the president because democrats will say you had full control of the government and you shut it down. Its not going to get easier. Its going to get a little harder. Review something talking about a major change to start requiring migrants stay in mexico while their cases crawl through the american courts and its going to put the onus on mexico to hold on to the migrants until their cases are suplidified. People there in mexico saying theres no program, no funding, no support. It tijuana is essentially going to become a waiting room. With that said, do you expect any legal challenges she argued will eventually reduce the number of migrants trying to game the system. Is there a concern that these could go through because everybody is so distracted with whats happening right now with the shutdown . Thats a great question and hopefully youre reporting and mentioning it like this will keep it in peoples minds. There are arguments to be made for changing the policy. Nielsen is not making them. The idea that all Asylum Seekers are just playing the system. No, ive heard they might be able to get more asylum cases decided and through because if they keep the people in mexico, they can go through the cases more quickly and theyll be able to not cast them. Like right now they can only deal with so many a day. But theyre not making those sensible arguments. They seem to want instead to focus on hooted rhetoric that might appeal to some people but not others. Theres so much going on. You have the president talking bouts shutting down the bortder. Why do we need a wall . If shutting down it the border is shutting down the legal crossing. I do hope despite the shut down, some of these issues will be taken seriously and theyll return to washington and at least start opening their minds to solving some of these problems. Next week theyll be back at it with a democratic house. Always appreciate both of your insights. Thank you. Homeland security secretary nielsen will be visiting. She wants to see hand medical screenings in el paso and yuma. In el paso this morning. And what are you learning about her visit so far . Reporter shes been very cagey about details.

The sheriff could not contain his outrage over californias socalled sanctuary law. And under sb 4 in california based on other active warrants this criminal has out there, Law Enforcement would have been prohibited from sharing any information with ice about this criminal gang member. Reporter some completely disagree saying the law actually encourages people to come forward who would otherwise avoid helping because of their citizenship status. But the sheriffs sentiment has been embraced bymany including President Trump. He use said it in his pitch for a border wall.

Its day eight for the demand of 5 billion for his border wall and nearly 800,000 federal workers are furloughed or expected to work without pay and President Trump made the baseless claim that most of the people not getting paid are democrats.
