The dirty dossier being spread throughout the media . An investigation with Peter Switzer at the head. 2018 comes to a close, well bring you the highlights of the worse media offenses of the year. Governor Mike Huckabee, howie kurtz break down the videotape. Also tonight the Christmas Police are back. We just have an excuse to use our Christmas Police video thing which i really love. How the u. S. Postal Service Canceled one familys stamp over a claim that the stamp was too religious at christmas. You will not believe it. We begin tonight with this. Donald trump making a stand for his wall its what voters wanted, but leadership stood in his way. Trump is now forcing the hand of democrats, threatening a shutdown. President trump ive made my position very clear. Any measure that funds the government must include border security. It has to. It is the solemn promise to protect and defend the United States of america and it is our sacred obligation. We have no choice. Laura joining me now are two republicans engaged in this site. Steve scalise and congressman sean duffy of wisconsin. Foxs chief Political Correspondent ed hen try joins us too. Congressman scalise you had the votes but the senate looks shaky. Are we headed today a shutdown tomorrow . I think it was important today. When nancy pelosi was in the oval office with the president and Chuck Schumer and she said mr. President you dont have the votes in the house to fund the wall and today we put up a massive vote with a large margin of republicans that said were going to stand with this president , fund the wall and we gave him serious leverage in whatever negotiations hes going to have with the senate. They have to confront this issue knowing we have the president s back at the house. Laura a lot of my listeners are watching and thinking how are we always in this position . Its the end of the year. Were rushing to get out of town. No traffic in dc, everyone is gone. You guys are there, were here. Everyone is gone. Paul ryan said were going to have a fight, were going to have a conversation about the border wall. Two years in the house majority, two years Senate Majority we wait until the end of december to deal with an issue that the American People want dealt with i think we were set up to lose, not win. We should have had this budget fight last week. Laura how about last spring we could have done it last week or this tuesday where we would have passed a bill that will funded the border wall before the senate acted. The 20th of december, two weeks before nancy pelosi takes over and think we have leverage . This is idiotic. We just passed a bill on criminal justice remorm. Democrats want, which well get no credit for. Why did we negotiate . Give us 5 billion. Laura we were talking earlier, i had not thought about that. The president did not run on criminal justice reform. Im glad it pass add i am not. Laura thats fine. But he isnt getting credit for it, he wont get credit for it. But if you want to use it, go use it in a way that advances the trump agenda. Ed henry has information for us about where things stand in the senate. Everyone is going to follow my tweets throughout the next 48 hours. I said earlier Mitch Mcconnell should fight for this wall as hard as he fought for kavanaugh. Actually its probably more important in the longterm survival of the country he only needs 51 votes. Ive been talking to Senate Republicans in private. Theyre saying theyre hopeful they can get the 51 votes to pass. Congressman scalise and duffy are talking about it as well. The challenge is republicans like bob corker, you mentioned theres not a lot of traffic, bob corker told fox tonight hes retiring from tennessee, hes already driving home. Laura thats a disgrace will they be pulled back because of wall funding . Well see. Someone inside the white house said think about it, put yourself in the shoes of President Trump, he was told were going to repeal and replace obama care, wall funding, out of afghanistan and siraj wahhaj once we defeated isis, a lot of priorities he didnt Just Campaign on and promise but he won on in 2016 he hasnt been able to followup on. Look at the tariffs, people inside the white house remind me Establishment Republicans tell the president dont do it. But for President Trump standing up against canada, the dairy farmers, in congressman duffys district wouldnt have been helped in wisconsin laura time and again the president s instincts on these issues were spot on. He was pulled back from his instincts by the experts. I think some of them were Foreign Policy experts that are now thankfully gone or treasury experts, his in stiffens on this are right. You have to watch Chuck Schumer, theyre playing a big game on capitol hill today. Is in what he said about the shut down. Watch. President trump is plunging the country into chaos. He said in front of us he would be proud to shut down the government. It is nothing to be proud of. The bottom line is simple the trump temper tantrum will shut down the government but it will not get him his wall. Laura congressman scalise, temper tantrum. I dont think so, he campaigned on this, won on this, he deserves the republicans to get behind him and put the democrats back on their heels, 5 billion, thats what were arguing about . This looks like another schumer shut down. A few years ago Chuck Schumer voted for a border wall. Hes going to have a hard time reconciling that. Hes making it personal. He have doesnt want donald trump to get money for the wall because he doesnt want donald trump to get a win. The American People see donald trump fighting for them to secure the border. Its about border security. Its been about this throughout his campaign. He won on this issue as one of the front and the center issues. Hes actually doing it. If khgs wants to say were going to have a shutdown, the American People know this is about border security. Youre for it or against it. We have people in the caravan who are known criminals, attacking our Border Patrol agents at the border. Laura he says its chaos. Spend realtime not just a photo op they do when they go up to the Border Patrol people trying to usher in migrants, the tijuana government knows chaos, mexico has seen the chaos, cartels getting enriched by chaos. That is old. Nancy pelosi said this earlier today. There are no votes in the house, majority of votes for a wall, no matter where you are thats exactly right. Laura you proved her wrong. I think i the want to check the vote list, 5 billion Steve Scalise did a great job counting the votes. Laura could schumer be wrong . He could be wrong. Nancy pelosi is more concerned about her votes to become the speaker than securing the border. We have agreement on all the funding but for the 5 billion for the wall. Thats the only Thing Holding up funding the government versus shutting the government down. Chuck schumer and nancy talking to the American People, donald trump has to do an Oval Office Address laura ive said this for a year. Talk about the families that have lost loved ones to the so much money for out of home placement follow kids that have lost parents to drug abuse, take away the photos of the kids at the border. Laura they personalize it, they say the death of the 7 Year Old Girl is on your shoulders. On average every day we stop ten known or suspected terrorists from coming into america. Last year alone our i. C. E. Agents saved over 900 kids from human trafficking. Those are real kids satisfied today because of what were doing to secure the border. Who knows how many we didnt catch. Thank god we have President Trump fighting to secure the border. Him having an address would be great. Laura ive begged him on air. This is the most important issue to the American People today. Its the government and immigration. Those two issues are the top of the list for the people. Government meaning working against the people, and immigration. Thats it. Got to address the country on this. Not tweets, address the country, lay it out. Im going to har range on this harangue on this. The mattis resignation, by the reaction in the hours following you would have thought we decided on a Ground Invasion into foreign land. Here was nancy pelosi and Chuck Schumer. Everything that indicates stability, everything that indicates strength, everything that indicates knowledge, is leaving this administration. General kelly, general mattis, so many others mcmaster. Exactly. Its chaos. Now in this administration. Im shaken by the resignation of general mattis. For what it means to our country, for the message it sends to our troops. For the indication of what his thing is of the commander in chief. Laura it sends the message to our troops youre coming home. Obama went through four secretaries of defense. I do not remember the freak out. I thought Pelosi Company were for pulling troops back once we actually have victory. Im really confused about where they are. Youre right. When the president is for something theyve been for a long time they dont want to admit it on it trade and other issues as well. I think you made an important point a moment ago about senator schumer as well and pushing the chaos narrative. Every time theres a development in the Mueller Investigation we hear the walls are closing in and then it physician physicia physicianle physicianless out. His letter was blistering in terms of his differences with the president on syria. Watch what Lindsey Graham is saying. Hes warning dont make the same mistake that barack obama made in terms of pulling out of iraq that you could have a terrorist safe haven . Afghanistan. I hear your the point laura. The president campaigned directly in 2016 not just on repeal and replace and trade and tariffs, he said were not the worlds policeman. He was honest about that in terms of syria and afghanistan which is now the longest war ever. Laura 17 years. Men and women guys, everyone has to reframe. Were watching schumer with his glasses down on the end of his nose, were supposed to think hes really serious about this. Remember what donald trump campaigned on. Lets watch. President trump were getting out of the nation building business. Our moments of greatest strength came when politics ended at the waters edge. We have created the vacuums that have allowed terrorism to grow and thrive. I want to help all of our allies but we are losing billions and billions of dollars. We cannot be the policemen of the world. Laura he won in part on a noninterventionist platform. Obama beat bush on a noninterventionist platform. Adam kinsinger running around acting like its 2003 all over again. Mattis has a different point of view, thats why donald trump was elected president. Go run for president. I the found that letter to be surprising coming from him. And a little dismissive we only have one commander in chief. The president and secretary of state tillerson had differences on foreign poll litigation, mike pompeo came in and hes doing a great job representing our country and the president. He will find somebody else to serve in this role. Its an important role. Secretary mattis did a great job of getting rid of isis. Theyre not gone all the way but ed a great job. Laura they dont want to leave hes going to find another general to serve this country well as his defense secretary. Laura the line is if we leave the chaos will ensue which means we can never leave because we are in these countries that are by their very constitution very chaotic there are 2000 troops not engaged in battle but given advice 1234s why is it a National Security interest . Why are we there . Were going to be there forever. Lets take a poll of the American People what happens with russia and iran . Laura the country is smaller than france do you see the territory to the eye ran who wants to kill the big satan america or the little satan israel . Laura how much money is china spending in iraq and afghanistan. Laura none probably none. Laura were 20 trillion in debt the president gets to call the ball and he deserves a staff around him that supports him. Laura it seems unnecessarily petty of an american hero, mattis, and i thought that was surprising you know what . I think we have the right to disagree in our party. We dont all fall in line. We can have different opinions. Laura well see if bushism comes back in 2020 President Trump is rebuilding our military and thats something he campaigned on. Laura hes not squandering the military either. Guys thank you so much. I want to get to a tragic but important story outside of washington that relates to what were talking about. We have to tie this all together for the American People. A community ravaged by the lack of action on the part of our government and local government, State Government who just turn their backs. Were talking about visalia california that sits between l. A. And San Francisco. In that town over the course of two harrowing days earlier this week Gustavo Garcia a man twice removed from this country went on what authorities call a reign of terror. A 24 hour shooting spree killing at least two and injuring many more. [gunshots] deputies taking gunfire from this man 36 year old Gustavo Garcia. It all went down on road 140 and avenue 256. Bullets ring out. Laura now while the circumstances of this are tragic on their own, the run up to it is even more so. Two days before this reign of terror he was arrested by the Tulare County sheriffs tempts for being under the influence of a controlled substance, held in county jail for ten hours before being released, even though i. C. E. Officials had issued an immigration hold on him. This arrest wasnt garcias first brush with the law. He has a vile the lent criminal past immigration and Customs Enforcement tells fox 26 news garcia had been deported twice. In the past the Sheriffs Office could have at lettered immigration because of garcias extensive rap sheet which includes Armed Robbery more than 15 years ago. Laura you might be asking yourself why did the cops let him go despite the i. C. E. Hold given his past . Was it the polices fault . I. C. E. Did file a detainer as soon as it learned of garcias arrest friday. And this would be enough to keep him in custody in other states. Boudreaux says his office no longer recognizes those detain percent and it cant reach out to i. C. E. For misdemeanor crimes. Laura before sb54 Gustavo Garcia would have been turned over to i. C. E. Officials, thats how weve always done it. After sb54 we no longer have the power to do. That we should note the tu player county board of supervisors voted to oppose california sanctuary state law in may of this year. Even though its symbolic it shows a citizenry standing up for common sense. Joining me is Tulare County sheriffs mike boudreaux. Sheriff i know our viewers are shaking their heads going how can this happen in the United States of america where we ee met morning noon and night about the tragic circumstances of people who are trying to come into the country, i get it there are tragic circumstances, its tough yet the politicians, did you get a call from pelosi . Did you get a call from Gavin Newsome . Any other officials in california concerned about whats happening there . You know the only phone call that i got was from the aclu demon eyeing the actions that we took which is really unfortunate. Tulare county is how its pronounced, actually. Laura sorry thats fine. Were an agricultural community. We produce billions of dollars worth that is sent all over the world. We have a large undocumented community. But we also have a large group of people who dont commit these types of crimes on a daily basis. What our focus on is the criminal element that ends up in my jail, that i no longer have the tools to reach out to i. C. E. , my counterpart, Law Enforcement partners and im no longer able to recognize the dee the an never through the sanctuary state law as well as the 9th court circuit, indicating that the detainers dont meet due process. Because of those two combined efforts we no longer can tell phone i. C. E. And even ask the question why is this detainer placed . Nor can we recognize the detainer itself. Laura sheriff hold on. Can you give a heads up to i. C. E. . Can you give them a heads up . Can you call and say were about to release this individual or we have this individual in custody . Even if they cant come and interview him or examine him, is there any notification at all you could give to i. C. E. Were not allowed to talk to our counterparts under these laws. Laura where is the conservative lawsuit against this . This is an outrage. I have to play something for you. This was Nancy Pelosis claim about what sanctuary policies actually accomplish. Watch our city of San Francisco is a sanctuary city. And we see it as a place where it makes us saf
