The arsonists, anarchists, looters and agitators have been largely stopped. I am doing what is necessary to keep our community safe, and these people will be brought to justice. Of course, protesters have threatened to topple the emancipation monument in washington, washington d. C. Now one of the organizers telling fox the statue should not be toppled, but either be updated to depict the slave kneeling before Abraham Lincoln standing upright, or the whole thing should be moved to a museum. As of right now, it is still standing. Its surrounded by a single layer of chainlink fence which the National Park service of says will stay in place until july 31st. This as President Trump threatens serious consequences for anyone december desecrating desecrating our nations statues and monuments. He just signedded that executive order to the point. Lets brung in congressman jim banks of indiana, hes on the Armed Services committee. Congressman, thank you for being here. Happy friday to you. First of all, the executive order, do you think that is going to be enforced will it be enforced, and how will it be enforced . Well, i have no doubt the president is soars about enforcing existing serious about enforcing existing laws and adding new laws for more severe penalties for the angry mob who is responsible for towering down and desecrating our memorials. Ive got to tell you back in washington, d. C. This week, i was heart broken to see the world war ii memorial where i meet with veterans all the time who come to visit from my district, from seeing that to visiting the Lincoln Statue that you just talked about. This is heartbreaking. My constituents are saying enough is enough david right. Do something about it and put those people behind bars who are trying to eliminate and erase our history by tearing down our monuments. Thats what im hoping to do by introducing similar legislation to what the president signed executive david well, and congressman, you put your finger on out. At first this was about confederate monuments, and you can argue either side of that. But then it went against Abraham Lincoln, andrew jackson, thomas jefferson, george washington, the father of our country. I mean, what theyre interested in doing is not e a rousing the memory of erasing the memory of confederacy, theyre interested in erasing the United States of america, erasing the constitution of the United States, erasing even actually it goes into jesus christ, we wont get into that argument, but the point is that americans realize this has much more to do with just the confederacy than it did with the entire american experiment. Unquestionably, thats the truth. You think back to when these riots started, from the peaceful protests related to george floyd to violent protests in washington, d. C. And elsewhere. This has nothing to do with what happened to george floyd in minneapolis. This is much different from that. These angry mobs want to erase americas history, our heritage. We cant allow it to happen. My constituents and americans all over this country are looking at washington, d. C. And demanding that our leaders from the president to the mayor of washington, d. C. , our governors, our members of congress, they want us to do whatever it takes to stop it a. David right. Thats what President Trump is trying to do, and im trying to help him. David and, you know, like most mobs which consist of bullies, theyre cowards. It took a run storm last night thaw had planned to take down this monument at 7 p. M. , a rainstorm stopped them from doing it. If thats not a it just shows what theyre really made of. Let me just read to you though, Frederick Douglass whos a great man in American History, he was a black man who was an abolitionist, of course, and he dedicated this statue 11 years after Abraham Lincoln in fact, it was the 11th anniversary of Abraham Lincolns asaws nation. Heres some of what he said in due honor to our friend, the think about rater, we have been doing highest honors to ourselves and those who come after us. Hes talking about black americans. We have been fastening ourselves to a name and fame imperishable and immortal, we have also been defending ourselves from a blighting scandal when now it shall said that the black man has no benefactors, when the foul ea reproach of ingratitude hurled at us and is attempted to scourge us beyond the rage of human brotherhood, we maw calmly pointed to this monument we have this day erected to the memory of Abraham Lincoln. For a great abolition u. S. Like Frederick Douglass to have thought so much of that statue, to tower it down or change it the way the protesters now say they want to would be sacrilege. Theres no question. I went down to visit this statue yesterday, its a beautiful statue. And a woman approached me, she saw that i was a member of congress. She owns a piece of property in the neighborhood, and she was so saddened by the fought that this statue the thought, she said shes a democrat. She said puppet a statue at the other end of the park of president obama, show how far weve come in American History, but do not tear down this statue. Its such an important piece of history with Frederick Douglass giving such a significant speech there at the dedication of the statue, as you mentioned. But this is what the left is intent upon doing. Either they dont know American History at all, or they want to erase it altogether david i think its a combination of the two, congressman. And either one of which would be bad enough alone, but i think its a combination of the two which says a lot about our education system. Meanwhile, in terms of the role of police in this nation, we have the Minneapolis City Council of course, george floyd incident was in minneapolis, so theyve got a particular if guilt on their hands. But they just voted 120 to disband the Police Department entirely, to replace it with something called the department of community safety, a holistic Public Health approach. Theres just no recognition that in every culture you cant dispense with the notion that there are people who are going to do bad things and need to be arrested and put away. They just are complete utopianists, and utopian experiments always turn out bad, dont they . When the, when the left started talking about defunding our police, many of my friends rugged their shoulders slugged shrugged their shoulders, but they actually mean it. Thats what you saw this week but democrat efforts to remove and eliminate qualified immunity for our Police Officers. That would be a terrible move that would make it much harder for Law Enforcement officers to do the important work that they to. Thats what the left stands for. We have to take them at a their word that thats what theyre trueing to accomplish, and minneapolis proves out. David and to put all of these police injustices, and there have been injustices commit by Police Officers, clearly, and george is an example of that, to put it all into context, i want to get a sound bite from one of your colleagues in the senate, john kennedy, who spoke to this issue. Let me just play that sound bite and get your reaction. Go ahead, roll tape. When a muslim or jihaddist blows up a school, school churn, were told dont judge all muslims by the action of a few, and boy, do i agree with that. How come the same rule doesnt apply to 800,000 cops in this country . Tawfd david good question, isnt it . Senator kennedy is always eloquent, makes a point very succinct lu are. Its a powerful point, and its important to remember that our men and women in blue do important worker. There are ways that we can Reform Police work, and thats why senator tim scott, Kevin Mccarthy tried to reach across the aisle to look at ways that we could do that but banning chokeholds, by National Registries of Police Officers who abuse their power, other reforms where republicans and democrats agree. But thats not what you saw come to votes on the floor of congress this week. David no. Instead you saw political posturing. The American People have had enough of it, they see it for what it is david more than political posturing, you had raciallytinged insults hurled at tim scott and other members of the republican community. It was really insulting, and we are going to be talking more about that later in the show. Congressman banks, thank you so much for being here. Have a grade weekend. Thank you, good to be with you.

Better life. David new warnings today from the White House Corona Task force after daily infections nationwide surged to a record high. Heres dr. Anthony fauci saying whether your state is doing well or not, now is not the time to be careless because the consequences are dead lu. Watch. We can be either part of the solution or part of the problem. So i just want to make a plea with people when they understand the stress that theyre under. As we try to tackle not only those states, but the lightcolored part of the country even though theyve done well, they may have gotten hit badly like new york and then came down, or they may not have gotten hit badly at all. They are vulnerable. If we dont extinguish the outbreak, sooner or later even ones that are doing well are going to be vulnerable to the spread. David lets welcome former louisiana governor bobby jindal to talk about all of this. Governor, great to see you. Thank you for being here. So the main question that came out for me anyway and i think for a lot of americans, is there any way to combat these spikes that are taking place and continue to reopen . Doing both at the same time . Thank you, david, for having me. We need to remember this is a marathon. This is not going to be over in a couple days or weeks, but having said that, we must reopen the economy and keep our people safe. I think there are two very distinct approaches. On one hand, youve got governors that trust their people, theyre open with them, transparent with them, theyre telling them weve got to mountain capacity in the hospitals, the icus, the ventilate arers, and as people act responsibly, well continue to open more and more of the economy. For example, you saw that in texas, florida, arizona. When they had a spike in texas, thaw e didnt shut down the economy, they said maybe we need to is suspend elective procedures. Not across the entire state, but in four counties to make sure those hospitals have capacity. Thats in contrast with some of these blue state governors that are making much more of a topdown approach. Theyre saying you cant go to church, but you can protest plus. You cant go to a trump rally are, but you can tear down statues. Thats when you lose credibility, and you need to be transparent with the American People. David governor cuomos been doing some fingerpointing, almost taking rell you should in the facts that there are spikes in other states. Heres what he had to say yesterday. Roll tape. Oh, i say to them all, look at the numbers. You play politics with this virus and youre lost. You told the people of your state and you told the people of this country, white house, dont worry about out. Just open up, go about your business, this is all democratic hyperbole. Oh, really . Now you see 27 states with the numbers going up. You see the death projections going up. You see the economy going down. It was never politics, it was always science. David now, i would say, governor, that cuomos in no position to do fingerpointing, or he has no bragging rights particularly when you think of the appalling situation in the Nursing Homes. Now it turns out there are about 6,000 people who have died because of an awful discussion that he made that was not made by the governor in florida and other governors, and look at this. The covid mortal few rates mortality rates of those blue states that you were mentioning who had serious lockdowns, new york, 7. 5 . New jersey, 7. 5 . Michigan, a mortality rate of 8. 7 . Now, compare that to the states that have had a more open policy. Georgia, 3. 4 . They opened ability a month ago. Florida, 2. 6 . Arizona, 2. 4 . Theyre the lockdown states have three times the mortality rates of these states that have been opening, so who has the bragging rights . David, look, youre exactly right. If he would stop talking to cnn and maybe talk to you and other reporters, maybe theyd ask these questions. People with covid were forced into these Nursing Homes and senior loving centers where there Living Centers where a lot of people were infected because of that. Secondly, when you look first they were focused on mortality rates, and remember at first it was we were going to run out of ventilators, then they said, no, no, its the number of cases. It looks to be a lot more young people are now getting covid, and most of them are recovering. Again, we shouldnt be come mace sent, but with we need to be objective because hes the thing that cuomo doesnt want to talk about, shutting down the economy has real, negative consequences especially for lower income families. So weve got to reopen the economy. The worst thing we could do is to do what happened in the early spring where they shut down the economy for two david right. Forgive me, governor, but look at the mortality rates of countries in europe that had complete shutdowns. Huge mortalities, 15 in italy, 14 in u. K. , 19 mortality, covid mortal few rate in france mortality rate in france. But in the United States, 5 . Trump has beat up people like biden and other folks are saying that hes responsible for a much worse situation than they had in europe. Its not true. Europe had a far worse mortality rate by a factor of three than the United States. No, and look, lets be generous, lets concede maybe it made sense to shut down the economy initially, make sure the hospitals werent overwhommed. Were not there right now. We need to do this on a local basis, so if there are local counties in trouble, they need different restrictions. Secondly, give credit where credit due, credit our doctors, Frontline Health care workers d. David yes, absolutely. We know a lot more about this virus. Even before we get to a vaccine. And give credit to donald trump. They put an unprecedented amount of money into making a vaccine, operate warp speed. Whichever vaccine crosses the finish line first, theyll be ready to manufacture hundreds of millions of doses much more quickly than some other countries. David i agree. Great to see you, governor. Have a great weekend. You as well. Thank you, david. David coming up, Speaker Pelosi accusing republicans of murder, literally. And donald trump accused of outrageous and insulting language.

David the democrats reare fusal to engage with republicans on Police Reform went virtually unnoticed by the media as were racist insults against senator scott by senator durbin and Speaker Pelosis outrageous accusation that republicans were complicit in George Floyds murder. So do voters really know whats going on here . Lets welcome the hill media reporter, joe concha. Joe, great to see you. Ive never seen such outrageous attacks, and i grew up in washington, d. C. , so i know what existed, what people used to do. But to accuse people of murder in fact, let me just play the sound bite of nancy pelosi for those who doubt what im saying. Heres roll tape and then well get joes response. For something to happen, theyre going to have to face the reality of police brutality, the reality of the need for justice in policing and the recognition that there are many, many good people in Law Enforcement but not all. So far they were trying to get away with murder, actually, the murder of george floyd. David to accuse an entire Political Party of murder, thats historic, but it didnt get much press. I would think that would be a lead story on the evening news, that the House Speaker a accused the senate republicans, and that includes tim scott, but the way, who just literally wrote a proposal, wrote a bill around Police Reforms, to lump him in with that as well. You talked about dick durbin using the word token as it applied to senator scott. These are comments being made by somebody who knows she can get away with them because shell never be challenged on making such outrageous statements. And this is the same nancy pelosi, by the way, who put the country through several months of an impeachment she knew was going to fail because she didnt have close to the votes in the senate. This is somebody who tore up the state of the union right after that was earlier this year as well. I keep hearing this is a genius politician, but this appears to be an unhinged politician with really no interest whatsoever in helping the country through what is one of the most troubling and difficult times weve ever been in. Its not moving the ball forward, its to divide and conquer. David david then you have other things that are not being reported on like, for example, another gaffe by Vice President biden. Let me just play that and get your reaction. People dont have a job, people dont have anywhere to go. They dont know what theyre going to do. And a lot of people, you have unnecessarily, now we have over 120 million can dead from covid. David 120 million people. Need eless to say, that figure is just a little bit off. And this has happened before, right . And the former Vice President did correct himself, but but yoe what happens when you put him in situations outside im joe in a basement right now, so i totally get it [laughter] but when hes no longer scripted, yeah, thats what happens. Remember, he said in the debate earlier this year that 150 million americans have died from gun violence, which is basically, you know, half the population. This is somebody who has referred to banning all ar14s, and i think he meant ar15s. Theres an ar16, i found that horrifying, but this happens time and time and time again, but joe biden doesnt seem to be affected by it because his polls keep going up because he doesnt have to be put in these situations. David, once those debates happen, thats a whole different ball game. David the press is acting like nfl blockers ahead of a runner. Theyre blocking all of these errors that hes making and just sort of ignoring them entirely whereas if the public knew about it, his numbers but the way, it should be pointed out that there was a poll from wisconsin, which is going to be a major state of contention between biden and donald trump. 4941, was that number. It was just taken this week. Thats an 8 difference. But i went back and looked at four years ago to the day, and there was another poll from wu four years from wu four years ago which showed hillary with an 8point victory or an 8point lead over donald trump. Exactly the same amount as it is now. Isnt it amazing . And thats probably why Hillary Clinton didnt go to wisconsin, basically ignored michigan, and donald trump was able to take those two states plus pennsylvania and that got him the election. To paw attention to polls in june of 2020 when we saw what happened in june of 2016, what happened in november of 2016, when you consider that george h. W. Bush was down by 19 points to michael dukakis, who you could argue was actually a better candidate than joe biden is . I dont think we should be talking about these things right now. In february if you told me that coronavirus and somebody named george floyd and the protests that happened after that horrific killing were going to be the two biggest topics right now, id say, what are you talking about . So, yeah, a lot can change between now and then, and joe biden is not an inspiring candidate that should give anybody confidence that hes going to be in for a cake walk. David the journalistic malpractice is just ive never seen it as bad as it is now. Thank goodness joe conchas around the monitor the situation. Thank you very much, joe. Thank you, david. My anniversarys tonight. David oh, congratulations. Happy anniversary. Well, china is rattling sabers at its neighbors, but some experts say its really a message to the u. S. Were going to be asking the hudson institutes Michael Pillsbury what is behind it all and how america should respond. Whatd we decide on the flyers again . Uh, fifteen minutes could save you 15 or more on car insurance. I think were gonna swap over to over seventyfive years of savings and service. What, were just gonna swap over . Yep.

So, whats in it for you . Our fees are structured so we do better when our clients do better. At Fisher Investments were clearly different. David china making some aggress withive moves this past week. The country violating the air space of taiwan. The territorial waters of japan and even getting into a border skirmish with india that has reportedly killed dozens of soldiers on both sides. So what is chinas goal, and should we intervene . Lets can hudson institutes director for chinese strategy, the great Michael Pillsbury. Good to see you, michael, thank you for being here. We know that china wants taiwan. Theyve always wanted taiwan. The question is when will they make a move, how will they make a move, and how do we respond . Go ahead. This is being watched very closely by our defense department, david. I think were all trying to understand something called xi jinping thought. Chinas powerful now, so its time for china to complete its unification, as they call it x. Taiwan an area that is very, very sensitive. Everybody knows exactly where the two our forces patrol in the midline of the strait, the chinese have been crossing over that midline. Our new air force chief of staff has just explained today that usually chinas bombers, socalled h6 bombers, they only go up every two or three months. Now china has started flying those bombers every day. So this is a signal that we need to be on alert. David well, meanwhile, were looking at pictures of xi with the head of the world health organization, dr. Today degrees, which we have sort of taken off of our list of charitable institutions. But its clear that the chinese at least have been trying to persuade the w. H. O. By doving the doctor and his excountry a lot of money which leads us to wonder how much, how they are bribing the rest of the world. Even the vatican, by the way. There was talk today of as much as 2 billion going from the Chinese Government, maybe less than that, but even if its 200 million, ten times less than that, its a lot of money to persuade the Chinese Government or to persuade the people in the vatican including the pope to do things their way. What do you know about this . Well, i i think President Trump is standing up to this. I think you heard him say that the chinese contribution to the w. H. O. Is is only about 10 of ours. And so its just not right, if you will met me say this, they kowtow to china so much when, in fact, they should be quite friendly to america. This is part of a broader xi jinping thought approach, that china wants to control all 15 of the u. N. Agencies. Not just the w. H. O. Theyve already got three others that are led by chinese citizens. And ideally, they want all 15 to be either chinese nationals or the Deputy Director would be chinese. David right. This is a very important part of their propaganda, that the new world order led but china is very good for everybody, and if i e spread a little bit of cash around to make it happen, why, thats okay too. President trump is standing up to this, david. Hes the first president david lets be specific here. What happens when we give money through our institutions,a. I. D. Or whomever at the state department, we have to account for that money. When china gives money to w. H. O. Or to the vatican or to governments around the world, they can do it a lot in a much more clever way from their perspective. [laughter] in a much more bribing, clear bribing kind of way where 2 million goes to this individual, 2 million to that individual. Isnt that the way their kind of cruxes differ from ours . Contributions differ from ours . I dont want to the offend the chinese too much, david, but its a little bit like the mafia. They show up with suitcases, and theyll actually transfer a Million Dollars to a cabinet minister in a Southern Country just sovereign country just to get him to do something to stay on chinas side. This is completely illegal in our system. We have something called the foreign corrupt practices act. If any company tries to do that or anything close to it, the executives who do it go to prison. So china has exempted itself, and its pretty brazen to be delivering suitcases full of cash. By the way, its american dollars. David right. Were still the number one currency in the world. David thats a great point. By the withdraw, a lot of people were wondering whey the vatican gave china so much lee waw in terms of the influence they had on the Catholic Church in china, that the communist party actually gets to sign off on bishops in china as a result of the deal with the vatican, which is extraordinary. Maybe, just maybe, im not saying i have the evidence for this, some of this money has something to do with that discussion. Michael pillsbury, always a pleasure to see you, sir.

Recent lu unsealed notes from peter strzok appear to show former fbi director james comey downplaying flynns call to the Russian Ambassador during a meeting with president obama and president joe widen saying it, quote joe biden saying it, quote, appears legit. What does this mean to the handling of the case and does Michael Flynn now have grounds for a lawsuit . Lets welcome republican strategist Ford Oconnell. Ford, thanks for being here. On fox and friends this morning, a former u. S. Attorney laid out the case for a flynn cause. Let me play that sound bite and get your reaction. Roll tape. Does Michael Flynn, first, have a legal case . Well, he certainly does. I mean, thats why there is an action called a vivid action, and that is to go after a federal investigator that suits someones constitutional rights. Its specific for that occasion, and i hope that hes looking at it strongly. David so, ford, if he does have a case as was just laid out, who does he sue . Well, i think hes going to have to sue the federal government and the fbi, and heres the reason. Withholding of evidence the reason why he can pursue a bivens action for damages. Thats the best way were going to find out what exactly happened because i find when the federal government has to pay out money, we actually get to the bottom of whats going on. David now, you also have within these peter strzok written hand notes and, of course, we dont know whether theyre actually true or not, but he suggested that not only was Vice President biden there when all this was being with discussed, but he was the one, Vice President biden was the one who suggested use the logan act, this obscure act that has never had a conviction under its name. That that be used as the way to go after general flynn. Would does he have any liability here . Could flynn sue biden . I dont think, you know, flynn could sue biden, but it does mean biden wants to be president of the United States, and he has a lot to answer for and, frankly, its ridiculous that the National Media doesnt bring this up. I think what those notes show you is there was a coordinated effort to undermine the Incoming Trump presidency without a legal bay us for doing so. And thats the basis for doing so. And thats the real crime. This was about politics and the obama administration, the fbi did not care about the peaceful transfer of power or the fact that donald trump was a legitimatelyelected president of the United States. David dave now, do you think americans will care . I know trump supporters, the onethird of voters who were real dyed in the wool trump supporters, they care. But the muddle ground and, of course, the left doesnt care at all but, in fact, thaw still support the russian theory. The middle ground, that onethird in the middle, do they care . Could President Trump use all this information on the campaign trail to his advantage . Absolutely because, basically, he can make the case that joe biden is a lying hypocrite. You know, right now when you look at joe bidens numbers in the polls, he has very high name id, but hes not very well defined. And what donald trump can make the case is that joe biden is not who he says he is. In fact, hes a trojan horse for the far left of his party. David i want to switch gears to Something Else that i know is near and dear to your heart, but the mail hundred ballot issue. Ive been mailin ballot issue. Some people saw, look, weve been doing this many for years without any trouble. Yes, there were some instances somewhere, but since weve been doing it before, why should we be concerned about it now, to which you would say what . It is the largest source of potential voter fraud. Thats not me saying it, its jimmy carter on the commission of election reform. Look, heres the big concern with mailin voting. Is the person who actually puts in the ballot who they saw either . Theres no real way for us to verify that because, generally speaking, ballots are destroyed after a certain amount of time, and we dont really have the type of process that can verify that the person whos submitting the ballot is really who they say they are. So thats the real concern. And will be, if we are looking to flip a president ial election, you only need about 100,000 fraudulent ballots across about five states. Its really that simple. Thats what we should be worried about, the integrity of the election process. David after all, the chinese are good at hacking very sophisticated computer programs. Cheerly, they could clearly, they could print some phony ballots, right . Well, they could do a million different things. We just need to be able to make sure that the people in america are confident that our Election Integrity is this. That is our primary concern. But, yes, Going Forward were going to have to watch out for the chinese in terms of hacking because they are the big dog on the block x theyre going to do far worse to us than russia could have ever dreamed of. David great to see you, ford. Have a great weekend. Appreciate it. Coming up next, customs and Border Protection chief mark morgan defending an emergency order to speed up the expulsion of illegal aliens from the border during the worsening covid19 pandemic. Congressman debbie lesko taking this one right after a short break. Stay with us. And because we dont know exactly when this crisis is going to be over. We dont know exactly when the stock market will reach its bottom, weve got to be prepared for this to last a long time. If you assume that youre out of work for nine months but you end up only being out of work for three. I come face to face with a lot of behinds. So i know theres a big need for gasx maximum strength. It works fast. Relieving pressure, bloating, and discomfort before you know it. So no one needs to know youve got gas. Gasx david welcome back. Im david asman in for elizabeth macdonald. Now to the latest border battle, and the commissioner on capitol hill defending an emergency order to quickly expel mexican migrants at the u. S. Border during the coronavirus pandemic. Watch. The cdc order has been a critically important tool in the fight against this Public Health cry us. It allows cbp to prevent the introduction and further spread of this virus in an effort to protect the American People, our work force and the immigrants themselves. Lets be clear, this order is not about immigration enforcement, its about taking immediate and decisive actions to address the Public Health threat that still continues today. And early on after that order we saw those trying to illegally enter our country drop by more than 50 from a precovid number. David lets talk about all this with congresswoman debbie lesko e from arizona. Its a border state, also a member of the Homeland Security committee, and you might have seen her this week at the border with the president. Good to see you, congresswoman, thank you for being here. Thank you. Its great to be here. David you know, we used to have a policy that didnt, you know, most people just assumed it was pretty obvious of forbidding people who had very contagious diseases from entering into the United States back around the turn of the century, a hundred years ago. It was usually tuberculosis or some disease like that. Now its covid. I dont understand why its so controversial to issue something which has stood this country well for hundreds of years. Well, im also on Judiciary Committee along with Homeland Security committee, and i can tell you that i dont understand often some of my democratic colleagues. I mean, they vilify the Border Patrol officers. When the Border Patrol officers are doing a good job securing our nation. And i really have to applaud President Trump. He talked about securing the border from day one, and hes done it. Thats why we went down to the border. I flew with him on our force one, and we had a round table where we talked about the issues that are happening on the ground and what improvements have been made in security in yuma, arizona. And then we actually went, drove down to the border, saw the big new 30foottall fence. We signed a plaque that commemorated 200 new miles of fence. And President Trumps getting it done. Hes been following through with what he said he was going to do. David he is, undeed. And im just curious what your constituents think about it because a lot of people just assumed it was a debate inside the capitol not recognizing that the people who love on the border were being who live on the border were being terrorized by all this. Of course, a lot of drug dealers coming in with weapons, terrorizing them literally like that. But just to have people walk across constantly, walking across your property is a terrifying thing. Are they satisfied now with the work thats being done on the border . Well, they sure are happy that President Trump is our president , because hes actually doing something about it versus the Previous Administration that wanted to basically open up the borders. Im telling you, i see firsthand how my democratic colleagues prioritize Illegal Immigrants over u. S. Citizens. They virtually want open borders which could, you know, you have drug trafficking, you have human and sex trafficking. And, of course, now we have coronavirus. So to what you and i think is common sense and building a wall so you can legally funnel people in an orderly fashion through the border, my democrat colleagues really want open borders, and i just think its insane. David now, one thing you dont hear about anymore, and maybe its just not in the news because theres so much other news, but the cower vans. Have caravans. Have they ended . Has the word gotten out in latin america and elsewhere that, in fact, the Border Security is much tighter than it was and, therefore, we shouldnt bother starting another cower van . Whats happening there . Well, yeah. Those caravans of people, that has definitely slowed down. What was happening before President Trump stepped in is that people knew that they could just claim asylum and very easily e get into our country and then wait for sometimes years to see see a federal judge and claim asylum. Most of them were denied, but by then theyd already gotten into the United States, and they didnt show up to court. So it was a real easy way for them to get across the border. And, yes, my constituents care about this issue. All of arizona cares about this issue. Before coronavirus took hold this year, Border Security was the number one polling issue in arizona because its not just the border communities that suffer. All those drugs come up into the phoenix corridor. Theres sex trafficking, theres violence. David right. I mean, these are these drug cartels are not nice people. Theyre nasty. David congresswoman, let me be clear about it. I married an immigrant from Central America. There are a lot of Central American that are horrified by the Human Trafficking that was going on between the border. That alone is a reason why even if youre an immigrant from that, those areas, you should be concerned about a whats going on here. Oh, youre totally right. And, you know, they were using kids, those drug cartels and Human Trafficking cartels were using children, you know, to try to, you know, get better access for a asylum. It was a gimmick. It was what they told these immigrants to do, and then a they ship em back down to Central America david horrible. And use them again. It was absolutely horrible what these people will do. They dont care about the immigrants david of course not. You know, its awful. And we need to stop it. And thank god that President Trump has done it. David all right. Well, congresswoman, we thank you for your work as well. Debbie lesko, have a wonderful weekend. Again, we thank you for coming in. Happy july 4th, but the way. Thats just a week away. Thank you. David im david asman in for elizabeth macdonald. Youre watching the evening edit on fox business. That does it for us. We hope you have a wonderful weekend. Well see you back here next week
