Every nurse that comes is in a stranger and takes the cold hand and says i will brick you prick you or stick something you up your nose. It is something positive to give the children identifying the healthsures. A lot of kids at st. Mary rae residence so never have the opportunity to go to disney world to see the princesses in person. Sibile, a tale two of mayors . What do you got into i worked with the u. S. Em babas sy in paris. That gamez passion. The issue is huge. The war is serious. The devastation in alepto p. The images we have been seeing have been heartbreaking and i wanted to help. I held the first summit at the Prospect Park Municipal Building in Prospect Park, incomes. I will introduce to you the two mayors of new jersey where both syrian and not only that, they were both born in aleppo. Meet the mayor from montvale, he is a republican and refuses to make his city a sanctuary city. Pe is a democrat. Muslim, and wants his city to be a century city. He are here in Prospect Park and i is peaceful. It makes sense to the thief us, right . I speak with him on a regular basis. The fact we can respect each others opinion and talk about it and go out for coffee afterward, then then, that is the beauty of the United States. Well, i asked for each of them to explain their position. My community over 50 of the population are immigrants so the chances are, there is someone who is legals status may no the right stats us, and i dont want to be in the business of ripping families apart. Think i there is a disconnect between the citizen and a season with official. As a sit when, as mike may agree or may agree with what is going on. As one official. I have to uphold the law a. M. Men then i idea they could not aubrey. My wife is a cre recent immigrant to the United States and we have a daughter. She had to flee syria recently. Based on the first in term tation of the executive order, should we have been outside of the United States, my daughter and i would have been able to come back in the city or not. It is not my call her to mayors call. My friends, i have then him from the same city. It is he wrong . Is he wrong the policy if. In my opinion, yes, he is wrong. The mayor said he has refused some interview requests and because it was the first reporter who actually asked to be present for interview and hash it out. We have the utmost respect for each other. That is the reason why we came here because hes the only reporter who says lets bring you together and talk this out. Well, the sanctuary city argument he is the stupid fist debate going on now. You have knucklehead on those left, they are trying to tell the cops how to do the job. What they cops do is though the noncitizens out of the country and not bother people who are not caution problems. This was jon corzine rule in 200. Right. It was great idea because i said, look. We will not report immigration status if you report a crime. Very spa of sick of in the language but as you commit a crime, we not only have to act immigration status but it determines whether or not you a flight risk. You have people on the right who want to enforce all immigration laws. No. I think you are right. I think you are right. I think it is both sides. I think it is he reaction. Its the point i love that they sat down together. For the most part. We have discourse here. The wherein the opinion of the two mayors in nothing, couldnt more important because since the civil war broke out in syria. There have been 11 million syrians who had sleep. So bass can i, where they can go. Who will accept them and when it comes to the mayor of the park. I want to be human and i want watch a lot of people in. I dont want to rip families apart if you dont have tre right legal status s. Meanwhile, the mayor of montvale is like the law is a law. Well, hi, that. What starts out as normal delivery is soon interrupted by little guy named houston. Yeah. Yeah. That is crazy. I have to tell you, the lying on the ice is spectacular. Bring it onset. Your eyes are glowing. He went from thiel glowing ice. What a transition, man. Check thought body cam at the university of arkansas. You can see the students being pulled over for, well, no, he was drunk. He struggled. He got out of the ticket . No, he was not drunk. Oh, he was not. To prove it he juggled. You tell the story. The weekend forecasted by wlbt meteorologist patrick ellis. Some of the cameras down there, actually hitting the ground. What starts out as normal delivery is soon interrupted bay little guy named houston. Well, hi, this. Houston lets all the viewers know in jackson, mississippi, will that be filled with parts everywhere into saturday night. Yeah. I think it is crazy. The station also hosted the lawyers and sometimes they bring their kids. That is when houston came into the studio and people said there is a problem. Well, many years of reporting in new jersey. This is the first visit to annj transit board of directors meeting. First time. I got say. A little depressing. Too much money. Baby steps taken here today on two big issues thats could have a Significant Impact on the lives of new jersey commuters. The first ones the bridge, that is the 100yearold bridge that carries 400 trains across the hackensack. The board bass to award a are 20 million contracting to begin work on replacing that bridge, anding Building Construction here and other work this has to be dope. They came out. They decided not today. We felt they wanted to see the news. 3 00 were willing to vote on. I mean, the edge of my seat. Well, you are not stuck in train delays her to prig. Some people may find it. Yeah. Amtrak is also building another bridge over the hackensack river. So how to there will be two. And several said, wait second, wient be cheaper, wouldnt they make more sense to build one berg bridge . Well wash needs to be done, one bridge, that works for everybody with a three or four they can decide. It is lewd dries think the taxpayers will build two bridges when wince all they immediate. Meanwhile, though. No discussion of the positive control, the new brakes, none of that. Right . No. No discussion of that issue. We do this every time. We all give the Port Authority and new Jersey Transit a hard time. If i go hi. Look at this from the other angle. Right. Getting people from new jersey to manhattan on a daily pass sis is a massive task. The reason why there are delays in the ex pitches. Sometimes you got to get the benefit of the doubt, hope they are doing the rig thing, the hard job. Are you big. You shouldnt have a job. Is outrageous. The problem with with nj ran sit. The government needs to get out of this transportation business. Another night of chase news. Thanks bar toking. Will make this dills appear. Watch this. With oh, yeah.
