And we begin with President Trump set to unveil his proposed budget for fiscal year 2020 tomorrow morning were learning this morning that that budget will include a requested 8. 6 billion in border wall funding. This as the senate prepares to vote this week on a resolution blocking the president s declaration of a National Emergency on the southern border some republican lawmakers already saying they plan to break rank, and vote with the democrats, they are Susan Collins of maine, Lisa Murkowski of arkansas, rand paul of kentucky, im sorry, of alaska rather and rand paul of kentucky and thom tillis of north carolina. Joining me right now in an exclusive interview republican senator from wyoming John Barrasso the chairman of the Senate Republican conference, he also chairs the Senate Committee on the environment and public works and a member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee and senator its great to have you on the program. The vote is this thursday, how are you going to vote . Im going to support the president i think the president is absolutely right on declaring the emergency here, and there is an emergency at the southern border today, 130 americans will die of drug overdoses in the United States. So much of that is coming in from mexico, we have a security issue and also a humanitarian issue i want the president to be able to accomplish the things that he has promised the American People. Maria why are so many of your republicans not standing with the president your republican colleagues . Well all of us are united that we need to do things in terms of Border Security in terms of a barrier, in terms of technology, manpower some would rather he not use the Emergency Powers that are granted to all president s they would rather this go through the appropriations process. Well, i agree with that approach but we have democrats who have in the past voted for Border Security, for hundreds and hundreds of miles of barrier who now call it immoral and are calling for tearing down the wall. President obama, president clinton said we had to do more at the southern border. Now, those democrats are heading the other way, some of them even want to eliminate this immigration and customs enforcement. Maria like by the way alexandria ocasiocortez keeps saying that look we often show this picture of the wall that separates san diego and tijuana. This is a wall in Nancy Pelosis state. Shes never asked about the idea that, you know, she keeps calling wall immoral and yet theres a wall in her own state which obviously is working. I dont understand playing politics with this issue. Is this all about the president getting his, you know, Campaign Promise delivered, knowing what the facts are in terms of the Human Trafficking, the drugs, et cetera . Well i think the day that donald trump was elected president democrats still couldnt believe and they said were going to do everything we can to stop him from accomplishing anything whether its good or bad for america. That does seem to be the way theyve headed certainly with Border Security because they have flip flopped theyre now against something theyve been for and voted for, in the past, and that to me, is the most disturbing nature of all of this , because we need the Border Security. I just met this other day the other day with the secretary of homeland security, and were on a path to having a million, a Million People stopped at the border trying to come into the country and many get here illegally. Weve also weaponized the laws in the United States whereas with Human Trafficking if they bring a child and call themselves a family unit, then they say they can only be held 20 days thats what the law is released into the United States, and they dont come back for a hearing and they stay forever so our laws are being used against us and the system is broken. Maria okay so the senate vote on thursday, they only need four republicans to get in with them. The democrats, so that it will pass, and then it heads to the president s desk he said he will veto it. Is that what youre expecting and how this plays out . Im meeting a couple of times this week with the president hes going to veto this and then his veto will be sustained they will not be able to override the veto of the president. Maria you dont think there will be any chance they will be able to override it . No. Maria let me ask you about the budget numbers because all of this even those who accept the idea that this is a crisis right now are debating the amount of money allocated to the wall, to defense in general, the budget of course is going to be unveiled tomorrow. How does he arrive at 8. 6 billion . Well hes asked the experts where should we be putting our best efforts and theyve come up with 10 specific locations along the border and said these are the spots where if we could put barriers it would make make a fundamental significant difference in protecting the border, the border is about 2,000 miles and so the president s not asking for the full 2,000 miles hes saying give us those 10 locations that the experts say are the key locations, thats where hes getting his numbers. Maria yeah because there are some areas that may not need a wall and the president has said that. Yes. Yes, there are places where manpower works some places best with technology and some places a physical barrier is key its critical thats what the president wants the money for. Maria how is this going to play out given the worries over 22 trillion in debt the country is facing right now. Youve got the debt ceiling debate coming up as well. Well, the democrats are going to continue, i believe to block anything the president wants to accomplish and the president has done wonderful things for the country in terms of the economy, in terms of regulatory reform, tax relief, two judges on the supreme court, im really proud of the record that President Trump has but the democrats just continue to have taken this hard left turn kind of heading off the cliff, socalled Green New Deal is a part of it but also, with Border Security is a big big issue. Maria yeah, Border Security wasnt always a big issue for them. They all say that they are for Border Security and they want more technology and more manpower they just dont like the idea of a wall. They were good for the first 70i calls it a 701stmile, immoral. Maria yeah, right. All right met me ask you about the broader set of issues here weve got this south by southwest conference going on and alexandria ocasiocortez is defending per position on the Green New Deal basically saying whats such a big deal about going from 10 better than garbage. I mean, she actually called the u. S. Policies right now garbage. How do you react to that . Well this new deal its a crazy new deal. Its a bad deal. Id take a look at what they proposed what she has introduced and 11 members of the senate have is whats the cost, what are the consequences and will it work . Well the cost is staggering, astronomical. 93 trillion. That would empty everyones bank account in america from Warren Buffett all the way on down, so the country cannot afford it. Individually, the consequences are people are going to lose their jobs and its going to be about 65,000 per family per year plus Higher Energy costs, higher heating costs. They want to get rid of airplanes, anybody that works in an Airline Industry theyre going to be out of work. The Energy Industry out of work and what about the air force . You get rid of airplanes, Vladimir Putin is not going to get rid of his air force just if we get rid of ours and the question of will it work, maria, it will not work. We cannot allow it. Maria i want to reiterate your Knowledge Base coming at this, because youre the chairman of the committee on environment and public works. You are an author it tate ever voice on knocking down this deal in this capacity and urls a boardcertified orthopaedic surgeon in private practice for 24 years so you have real opinions in terms of medicare and medicaid. Why wont it work . Explain to our viewers, based on your Knowledge Base. Well, right now, in terms of emissions, global emissions and a global issue the United States puts forth only 13 of those. China and india, 33 , so you cant power the country on Wind Turbines and solar panels alone. Thats only 8 of our energy, we just cannot allow our bodies, ourselves to follow this chicken little, sky is falling approach of these socialistic democrats like ocasiocortez and the president ial candidates on the democrat side of the aisle. We cannot follow them over the cliff. It is going to hurt jobs, hurt peoples ability to pay their mortgage, hurt our economy, hurt our nation in terms of National Security. If you want to do something actually something significant and big there are some solutions to this that i propose and im working with people on a bipartisan way on it. Sure we need more renewable energy, but we need carbon captures, sequestration, utilizing the carbon, make it a valuable product. We passed pieces of legislation, signed into law, called the future act and we had a hearing on another one yesterday, all related to last week all related to carbon capture, and the other is Nuclear Power. New age Nuclear Power where the react ors are smaller, better, safer thats all part of it. Maria im glad you mentioned all of this because youve worked with your democratic colleagues on this, and youve recognized Climate Change as an issue. Do you think she just doesnt understand the issues . I mean, how is it possible that the party seems to be being led by her and her ideas, the whole conversation, the debate that were having is based on her ideas. What are your colleagues on the left say about this . Well some are very concerned with the position that the party has taken and the president ial candidates have taken. I think nancy pelosi is unnerved by this new group of democrats in the house, who are trying to take the entire party and are succeeding in taking the party on this sharp left hand turn thats going to as the New York Times today said careening off the cliff. Maria yeah. Thats where theyre heading maria it certainly feels that way i want to take a short break and when i come back i want to get your take on the medicare end of this and healthcare today plus Senate Judiciary chairman Lindsey Graham promised a deep dive on alleged fisa abuse will Republican Leadership back him up, then ahead National Security advisor john bolton reacting to reports that north korea has been observed ramping up act. Follow me on twitter at Maria Bartiromo on instagram at Maria Bartiromo and at sunday futures, and let me know what youd like to hear from a big lineup today stay with us as we look ahead on sunday morning futures.

Unlock savings when you add select hotels to your existing trip. Only when you book with expedia. Maria and im back with republican senator from wyoming John Barrasso, and senator, let me ask you one more about this Green New Deal, because the reports show that american households would have to pay up to 65,000 a year to pay for this new deal, and the medicare end of it is also incredible, Bernie Sanders is talking about medicare for all but that would wipe out the entire private insurance industry, 150 160 Million People get their insurance from the private Health Insurance industry. And people tend to like what they have when they get their insurance through work and through private healthcare, but yes, this socalled medicare for all wipes out all of that. It does a number of Different Things as a doctor ive seen it taking care of patients from all different walks of life, and the thing about the socalled medicare for all, it eliminates private insurance, it leads to the kind of care that people now have in england or canada, where you have to wait in line, so taxes would have to go up to pay for it, choices would have to go down and people would wait in line. Maria, ive actually operated on people from canada, where healthcare is free, because they couldnt afford to wait the time for their free operation. We now, right now after you see a generalist in canada to try to get to see an orthopaedic surgeon like myself the wait can be up to nine months. People in america arent going to tolerate that. Maria unbelievable and youre not really seeing pushback from the leadership. Nancy pelosi had a hard time denouncing congresswoman omars comments yesterday, and they were obviously antisemetic and bigoted so, this is the leadership of this party. That is the leadership of the party, the tail is wagging the dog as they say, nancy pelosi seems to be unnerved by it but omar should have been called out by name in the resolution. She should have been removed from the Foreign Affairs committee in the house of representatives, the democrats with these antisemetic comments were afraid to do anything. Maria unbelievable well talk with ben mcadams coming up get his response as a democrat in the house. Let me ask you about what your colleague Lindsey Graham is doing because hes been with me on this program a number of times saying hes going to do a deep dive into the abuse at the fisa court after the behavior of the fbi top doj during the 2016 election. Is the Republican Leadership in the senate going to back Lindsey Grahams efforts . Absolutely lindsay is a pitbull he will do a great job on this, all they had to do was watch the kavanaugh hearings where lindsay laid into the democrats on how unfair they were being, and the double standard so lindsay is going to go after this, fully and i think its important that he does. Maria your expectations for william barr the new attorney general in terms of seeking the truth in this regard. We know what took place in the 2016 election and yet were hearing a lot about the Mueller Report possibly dropping soon, and yet, now, hes no longer important to adam schiff. Adam schiff has his own investigations going on. This Mueller Report, this has gone on too long. It is time to get the report. I think the American People deserve transparency. Weve heard from attorney general bar in his testimony to congress that he plans toe the American Public sees whats in it. Its time to get it done. This has been going on way too long. Its time to move on. Maria real quick the budgets going to be unveiled tomorrow by the president. Is he going to get what he wants on his 8. 6 billion . Well no president gets exactly what they want. The budget is a recommendation my colleague from wyoming is the chairman of the Budget Committee in the senate hes committed to Border Security as well. Maria senator good to have you on the program. Thank you so much for joining us senator John Barrasso there. When we come back my interview with National Security advisor john bolton, he thought
