Call ryans rhino care. Chairman of the powerful house ways and Means Committee committee congressman kevin brady joins me tonight. President trump promised Border Security and hes delivering. A new government report shows Border Apprehensions in february fell to the lowest level in more than five years. Well report on the Trump Administrations progress on the border wall here tonight with us conservative commentator, bestselling author, Michelle Malkin. Good evening, everybody. The battle lines in washington are now drawn. The repeal and replacement of obamacare will be fought out along two principal issues the conservatives are not on board with at this point. The medicaid extension, subsidies posing as refundable tax credits, the conservatives such as the House Freedom caucus. The Republican Study Committee and senators mike lee, ted cruz, rand paul, among others are simply outraged saying theyre seeing a rushed process and far too much back room dealing. In fact, both the house ways and Means Committee and the energy and Commerce Committee voted to repeal the Republican Health care plan without seeing the Congressional Budget Office estimate of what it would cost. Speaker ryan today tried to sway some of his colleagues by going into full professor mode as you see there, giving a power point presentation. In fact on the merits of the plan, and Vice President mike pence gave an interview to our own bret baier saying the Trump Administration is listening to conservative opposition. I think were going to listen very intently to conservative leaders. Were all literally on the same page about where we need to go, but how you get there is oftentimes complicated in washington, d. C. Based on the arcane rules of the institution, but what President Trump has said to our whole team is continue to engage members. This is the bill, but if there are ways to improve that bill than to give people greater confidence were all going to arrive at the same place where obamacare is done and replaced it with the Health Care Reforms that lower the cost of Health Insurance by expanding peoples choices and giving states more flexibility. Lou more flexibility. President trump mounting his own Charm Offensive in support of house gop plan. Hosting in fact a bowling event tonight with republican lawmakers. That is quite a quite a scene to conjure up, is it not . Joining me to discuss whether this plan is the best one for the American People and best possible one of its architects. Congressman kevin brady. He is the chairman of the powerful house ways and Means Committee, and mr. Chairman, it is great to have you with us. Lou, always good to visit a fellow texan. Thank you. Lou amen, brother. These are tough times, however, for even texans because were looking at a gop irrespective of what anyone is claiming here. Right now the gop, conservatives are very concerned about a number of issues. Amongst them, tax credits, theyre concerned about taxes on the cadillac plan. Theyre concerned about medicaid extension, its cost and the reasons and why fors that the Republican Leadership decided to preserve it. So lets start with those three principal objectives and critiques if i may, from the conservatives and your response. First, let me just make this is not conservative opposition. These are conservative colleagues. They have great ideas. In fact were working with them, ive been working all day long as we have almost every day, trying to make sure we get as much as we can in this repeal and replace because we have two principles altogether. Not just get rid of the subsidies, the mandates, the funding for planned parenthood. All that is gone can. We restore state controlled health care, can we restore the free market . Thats where were having great discussions about how we do that. Im telling you at the end of the day here, lou, were going to come together to back the president on this and get it done. Look, we fought for seven years together for this day. Its not a tough time. This is an exciting time. Lou and its interesting to hear, again, speaker ryan talk about better way last night. Today lecturing, not seeking the input and the views of fellow conservatives, as you style them, and i think correctly, but lecturing them as this is the best possible solution which suggested in regular order and republic hearings youre own hearings would not he would be shocked i guess to hear better ideas. No, i tell you, i see the exact opposite. What speaker ryan was trying to do is explain the environment were in, and how we have to stuff 20 pounds of reforms and more choice in state control into what the senate rules will allow us. What he was pointing out is here are our challenges. I know this, every meeting, every phone call, every discussion, every sitdown with our conservative friends, theyve already sat down with the speaker. I dont buy this hes not listening. Its in fact just the opposite. He and i and others have been working through the weekends and nights to bring as many of these ideas into this plan as possible. And we have more work to do. And by the way, this is historic. Repealing and entitlement, once its embedded and replacing it. Its happened one time in history. You cant do it all in one bill. But we want to do as much as we can in this first bill. Lou i understand, and with three phases, two that go beyond one piece of legislation, it is historic, but on the other hand, the idea that entitlements are being curtailed when, as you well know, many of the conservatives, senators, particularly senator rand paul, senator mike lee, are concerned that those tax credits are simply subsidies under another name. You can reassure them . Yes, i do. One, i know where theyre coming from, and were always cautious about making sure theres equal treatment in the tax code, so the Biggest Health care entitlement after medicare and medicaid is the one that you have. You and everyone else, including me who work at a big business. The largest tax break in the tax code is this health care break. So the question is why, cant Small Business people get the same treatment . Why cant an entrepreneur or the momandpop deli thats the bottom of your building that doesnt get any help, why cant they get equal treatment . Thats what were providing. The truth of the matter is they work just as hard, theyre critical for the economy, working hard and playing by the rules, so thats what were doing. Lou and Small Business people, as you say, certainly as deserving are more deserving of that treatment under the tax code without question. And the other thing too i want to make sure you know, look, we know its going to take states awhile to take back control of health care, design it for their families and communities, approve all the new plans away from obamacare. Thats why we want to act now. Secondly, restoring the free market, giving People Choice over their plan, not the one washington wants for them. That will take some time. The reason were moving now is to make sure our states and frankly our individuals have plenty of time to get this in place. You gotta get it right. Lou gotta get it right, and that begs the question as to why your committees would even move forward, move legislation forward without getting an assessment of cost that you could showing that respect for the taxpayer that President Trump insists be the core value of federal spending. So lou, i think thats a fair question. So we know that because the senate rules, that the house is working hard to comply, that this has to balance, not just balance in over 10 years, has to balance over 20 years. So we know for us to bring it to the floor, it has to do that, and it will. Not the numbers to balance it, that were waiting for, its really the who gets covered by state control, you know, how much our insurance premiums reduced . So those are the types of information were awaiting. And when we do get cbos score, it will only be a piece to the puzzle because weve got more work to do to restore the free market after this bill. Lou you know, there is something always theres something that resonates when a representative of government talks about restoring the free market. I understand what you mean, i understand what youre saying. Yes, you do. Taking the large bureaucracy and pulling it by the roots and restore choice and products. It is a fight. Were going to have to be relentless to get this done. Lou relentless and at the same time openminded and generously accepting of a lot of views that have not represented quite yet in the legislation, would you agree . Look, we are always improving this. There are great ideas out there, and i will tell you this from ways and Means Committee perspective and speaker ryan as well, were going to accommodate every great idea on this. Lou whos the arbiter what is a great sgld. So when we reach consensus. House republicans are. Were driving this in a big way. We got to deal with the senate rules and were going to look, were going to stuff as much conservative free market reforms as we can in this. Lou what might be a byproduct, perhaps there will be immense support for reform and good sense of the senate, but might be too much to ask for. Feel free to drag the senators on the show and ask them that question. Id love to hear the answer. Lou well, me, too. And kevin brady, thank you for giving us some of the answers tonight, and were delighted that you chose your time with us. Love coming on the show with you. Lou congressman kevin brady of texas, the chairman of the ways and Means Committee. Were coming right back. A lot more straight ahead, these are Interesting Times in washington, d. C. Without question. Stay with us. The Trump Administration touting its policies to secure the border, companies are lining up to bid to design the president s border wall.

Members of congress with access to the most highly classified intelligence information, the socalled gang of 8. Congressman nunes, schiff, senators burr, warner, speaker ryan, leaders pelosi, schumer and mcconnell. Comeys visit after criticism that comey was stonewalling house members in a briefing last week. Lawmakers investigating whether there was russian interference in the elections, whether there were any untoward communications between the campaign of President Trump and the russians and to this point, some eight months of investigation and speculation, zero evidence. Wikileaks founder Julian Assange today saying he will work with Technology Companies to fix flaws that have allowed the cia to hack into smartphones, computers and other devices. We have decided to work with them, to give them some exclusive access to the additional Technical Details we have, so that fixes can be developed and pushed out so people can be secured. Lou thats one view, and those who would be more comfortable with all of those tools and secret data in the hands of Technology Companies rather than the Intelligence Community of this country might be, as it were, assange, others certainly not. We asked for judge Andrew Napolitano for comment, and this is what he said about the likely legal criminal culpability of any one of those companies who were to take those governmentowned documents and tools. Wikileaks, he said must publish the documents first, then anyone can read them, if wikileaks seals documents or receives stolen documents and passes them onto the Tech Companies, all who knowingly participated in the transfer of the documents from the cia to those Tech Companies has engaged in criminal acts. President trumps illegal immigration crackdown is working. New government figures show the number of illegal border crossings dropping by 40 in the president s first full month of office. Number of illegal crossings dropping from 31,000 in january to fewer than 19,000 in february. The Trump Administration this week also started receiving bids to design and build the border wall. The specifications are general and certainly dependent upon the ultimate design that the president approves. 30 to 50 feet tall, resistant to climbing, of course, tampering or damage and preferably concrete but could be steel, a prototype due within two weeks with a proposal and price due in may. My next guest says the Trump Administrations Immigration Enforcement is already yielding life saving results. Joining me tonight Michelle Malkin, host of the Michelle Malkin investigates show on crtv. Com. Bestselling author. Michelle, great to have you here. Imagine this, were already seeing a significant drop in crossings and apprehensions on the border during a twomonth period during which those numbers usually peak. Michelle yes, and you would think that all of these selfstyled humanitarians, the bleeding hearts who care so much about people who make these dangerous journeys would be applauding our president because he is showing true, effective, humanitarian concern for those people by deterring them from making these dangerous journeys in the first place, and his message, this very powerful message that Enforcement Matters in america is being heard all the way in Central America because if you take a deeper dive into those figures, you see that unaccompanied minors, its almost been halved the number of these children who are being sent over, and exploited by human traffickers and drug cartels. Bravo, President Trump. I hope this is a trend that continues. Lou and hes made it pretty clear that hes going to do what is necessary to make sure the trend does continue, including building that wall. Were looking at the process for bidding on this wall, moving straight ahead. Youve got to be encouraged by the quick action, i dont think anyone, i shouldnt say anyone, i dont think many people expected the president to move this quickly. Your thoughts . Michelle yes, and i think that the confidence he has instilled among the rank and file Border Patrol agents on the front lines risking their own jobs underscores how serious he is about this. Look, one could grow cynical after watching for the last quarter century republicans Pay Lip Service for the need to a fence. I call it fino, the fence in name only that never transpired. Lou i do remember that. I always have to temper my enthusiasm. In this case, there has been no other republican who has been so deadly serious about committing to National Sovereignty than President Trump, and these results that were showing, that hes showing us now, it is mindboggling when you think about what weve been through the last 25 years. Lou absolutely, and h1b visas, one of the most corrupted visa programs in the country, were looking at this administration hold the line on the number of h1b visas. Youve got to be encouraged, very quickly, your thoughts. Michelle i absolutely am. I have a show on crtv on right now. Lou whats it called . Michelle Michelle Malkin investigates. I went to San Francisco where the latest round of h1b inspired and enabled layouts have occurred, but President Trump has put a freeze much to the chagrin of the open borders lobbyists in america and in india on the fasttracking process. Weve got the h1b lottery coming up and a lot of very important decisions that President Trump has to make to make sure that jobs, wages and wellbeing of American Workers are put first.

He decided to liketure on the plan to repeal and replace obamacare with his hour and a half long power point presentation, urging the gop to support his plan. This is the closest well ever get to repealing and replacing obamacare. The type is here, the type is now. This is the moment, and this is the closest it will ever happen it comes down to a binary choice. Howie his way, the highway, you are in or you are out. The speaker blaming what he called growing pains for opposition to the plans. But for all his claim of a binary choice, the legislation resembles obamacare light. The individual mandate still exists under a different name. The penalty going to Insurance Companies instead of the government. Anybody going without come for 63 days will have to pay a 30 penalty to the Insurance Companies. As for the medicaid extension. It calls for freezing enrollment by 2018. 31 states in d. C. Adopted the Medicaid Expansion by obamacare. 11 Million People got medicaid under the expansion and some folks called that obamacare. As a result, the e states receiving 79 billion in federal funding while the states were putting in 5 billion for Medicaid Expansion. A smart deal if it went no farther than that for those states that decided to extend. But Republican Leaders want to wait until 2020 to freeze the Medicaid Expansion which has some worried it will never happen. That hell will freeze over before its frozen out in an election year. Its time for the Republican Leaders to listen to their members and the American People and do what they promised they said they would do. But president obama promised. Repeal and replace obamacare honestly and openly and transparently. God bless you if you do. I do want to say to congressman kevin brady, i admire his spirit and his political courage coming on to talk about this very difficult, difficult issue that has the republican parting why roiling right now. The quotation of the evening. It might apply to the proposal of the house leadership. You cant fake quality any more than you can fake a good meal. We are coming back with much more. U. S. Forces in syria and the commander of centcom says more our troops will be required. As we move towards the latter part these operations into the stability aspects of the operation well see more conventional forces requirements perhaps. Lou well talk about the foreign and political implications. Implications. Well have t t t t t as after a dvt blood clot,ital i sure had a lot to think about. What about the people i care about . Including this little girl. And what if this happened again . I was given warfarin in the hospital, but wondered, was this the best treatment for me . So i asked my doctor. And he recommended eliquis. Eliquis treats dvt and pe blood clots and reduces the risk of them happening again. Yes, eliquis treats dvt and pe blood clots. Eliquis also had significantly less major bleeding than the standard treatment. Both made me turn around my thinking. Dont stop eliquis unless your doctor tells you to. Eliquis can cause serious and in rare cases fatal bleeding. Dont take eliquis if you have an artificial heart valve or abnormal bleeding. If you had a spinal injection while on eliquis call your doctor right away if you have tingling, numbness, or muscle weakness. While taking eliquis, you may bruise more easily. And it may take longer than usual for bleeding to stop. Seek immediate medical care for sudden signs of bleeding, like unusual bruising. Eliquis may increase your bleeding risk if you take certain medicines. Tell your doctor about all planned medical or dental procedures. Eliquis treats dvt and pe blood clots. Plus had less major bleeding. Both made eliquis the right treatment for me. Ask your doctor if switching to eliquis is right for you. Wheyou wantve somto protect it.

Forces on the move whether its ma fleens syria or the prospect some reports suggest that President Trump is ready to november bomb aircraft toward the north korean peninsula. Chief political worsant byron york. This even aggressive but constrained move on the part of the president to provide support to take raqqa, the capital city of the caliphate, the Islamic State. There was no real Clear Campaign prom is from trump other than to destroy isis. It didnt talk about the way to do it. But i think it was clear he thought the obama method from doing it from 30,000 feet with bombers and missiles and restrict jiffive rules of engagement. I think a lot of his supporters those would try an air campaign before he did anything on the ground. So certainly some people are going to be worried about some sort of mix creep. But well have to see if this works or not. If he does substantial damage to isis, i think people will be happy with it. Lou its hard to anything creep when your mission is to destroy the Islamic State and the president made it clear he means to destroy the Islamic State. Byron thats true. We found out one time lou this is the new guy. This is a man who means what he says, he says what he means. Its pretty straightforward. He is delivering on his promises. Too much is made, i think, in washington, d. C. , if i may say this, byron, too many of those folks talk about their feeling. Im about done with their feeling down there. Byron he talked about not having american troops in the middle east. So i think we have two things going on here. I thought what he would start with is really ramping up the air campaign against isis and see what kind of damage that would inflict. Lou well see if doing it his way, does it approximate anything so far that the previous management of this country tried. Byron, we are out of time, but i want to ask you about what we are seeing what obamacares repeal and replacement effort. The Division Within the Republican Party which the gop leadership as you would expect would deny. But it is there, isnt it . Byron i think the Republican Leaders are benaifg an odd fashion. This bill did not have the aprofit more conservative republicans. They dont have a lot of leeway. Nancy pelosi had 253 democrats when she just barely passed obamacare in the house. Ryan had 237. Then holding a hearing. The ways and Means Committee has a markup hearing wednesday morning and it goes until thursday morning. The energy and commerce hearing goes even more than 24 hours. What are they trying to do here . I think they are behaving in a strange fashion. Lou they have one advantage. President trump is putting his shoulders behind his. Hes carrying out a Bowling Alley offensive with congress. This is good stuff to see. It will be even more fun to watch and see if it works. Hes got a pretty good track record. Byron hes smart to be schmoozing with members of congress. Thats something president obama didnt do and it cost him. Lou the base jumper launching himself off the 400foot sandstone tower in utah parachuting to ground. What a way to start your day. Im sure the stunning views. You have got to be rested after that. Up next, 400 of our marines are joining special Operations Forces in syria. Well take that up with fred fleitz next. If you wish to reform our immigration laws, then i think its necessary that we control immigration. And the on way to control immigration is to control our borders and our ports. If anyone can defeat that sill,i will listen to any plan they support. You always get the amnesty, you never get the wall built. Its time to reverse these things. Lou watch Liberty Mutual stood with me when i was too busy with the kids to get a repair estimate. Liberty did what . Yeah, with Liberty Mutual all i needed to do to get an estimate was snap a photo of the damage and voila voila sigh i wish my Insurance Company had that. Wait hold it. Hold it boys.

Lou joining me now to discuss the latest military provocations from north korea. Fred fleitz, great to have you, fred. This is a very quick, unexpected move, to move under the 11th Marine Expeditionary force into syria at least for a battery of howitzers to be the assault on raqqa. Fred the world knew obama did not have a serious policy. His policy was to do as little as possible and kick the problem to the next president. Isis cant be defeated on from the air. We know that from history. We are going to need Ground Troops. But they cannot be just american. Its important if Ground Troops go in, we need nato troops. Its sort of a coalition. Lou it may need to be a far more robust fred we need substantial country tbriewtions nato. And they have an incentive to do this. The refugees are going primarily to europe, they have to solve this crisis. Lou we listened to nonsense spewed from washington, d. C. About how they are defeated for a good part of past 8 years. Its come to naught. We know many of the generals have not had the acumen, talent and vision to carry out a successful plan or there would be no Islamic State. We are the worlds only super power. We have spent trillions of dollars in the middle east and we look like damn fools. We have a new president. What do you think of what hes doing and is it the right course . The world knew we had an indecisive president under barack obama. They knew how far the United States would go. They dont know how far mr. Trump will go. Lou, north korea doesnt either. But we find out north korea is trying to Sell Nuclear Material online for crying out loud. North korea trying to be the ebay of fissionable material. The United Nations wouldnt tell us to whom they were trying specifically to sell it. Fred i found that troubling. They were trying to sell materials that could make a fusion explosion which significantly increases the yield. Im worried that north korea even has this. Lou what the hell is the United Nations doing telling part of a story. Fred im worried north korea has it and im concerned who they would sell it to, iran. This is a very dangerous development. Lou the idea that the Trump Administration would send b52 and b2s into the korean peninsula. Do you think there is anything to it . Fred i think there is something to it. We are sending defense missiles to south korea. A serious policy is what north korea is seeing. Lou up next, well reveal whats inside a compelling new book entitled, reasons to vote for democrats. Its a comprehensive book. Tammy bruce and Mike Gallagher join me. Stay with us. Safety isnt a list of boxes to check. Its taking the best technologies out there and adapting them to work for you.

Joining me now, tammy bruce, Mike Gallagher, host of the Mike Gallagher radio show on the salem radio network. Lets start, tammy, with what in the world the republicans right now, they are surprising just about everyone. Tammy we have a situation where you have an active president who campaigned on something specific. Congress has been in a comb today for the last in a coma for the last 8 years its like they have been on a beach somewhere doing nothing. Now what they do matters. Paul ryan was somebody who uninvited donald trump from events. They dont want to help him and they are not thinking of the country. What the American People want is whats pushing them forward. Your points are right about the nature of what we can make this bill be. I appreciate the three stages. I trust the president the president is fine with the stages. He says hes willing to negotiate. Remember its the art of the deal. Lou when people put legislation into stages, i can tell you this, there is not great an is facing stage two and three will be an actuality. Mike this is part of the legislative process. If the Freedom Caucus gets a seat at the table. Lou having the president drive this thing may make everyone look like geniouses. Mike this is not just ryancare. This could be trump care. Lou to committees to temperature move this legislation forward. If that continues there wont be amendments. Mike they had 7 years. Lou we are agreeing. What i would say on this issue. Im impressed with kevin gratey defending the plan. Im impressed with the good intention. Im not pleased to hear speaker ryan talk about his damn bert agenda. With the lecture and the power point presentation is not brilliant. What the president is doing is brilliant. Tammy i would suggest paul ryan knows Donald Trumps plans will work and he wants to be on the coat tails. Lou i hope you mention a correct weight to his judgment and intellect.
