come back anytime. yes, sir, thank you. that is all in on this thursday night. alex wagner tonight starts right now. good evening, alex. good evening, my friend. we re going to have more on al-shifa and what s going on at that hospital with a reporter has been to that hospital and reported there extensively, that s our own eamon mohyeldin. i want to start a with a good point made a member of congress, made by the freedom caucus no less. here s what chip roy had to say to his colleagues. one thing i want my republican colleagues to give me one thing, one that i can go campaign on and say we did. one. anybody sitting thin complex you want to come on the floor and explain to me one material meaningful significant thing the republican majority has done besides, well, i guess it s not as bad as the democrats in. congressman roy is correct on two fronts here. first off, the republican controlled house of representatives has next to nothing of substance this year. seco
said of the interracial integration in mississippi. we ll see the passage of the 13th and 14th and 15th amendment ending slavery and passing a birthright citizenships and a black voting rights for men are going to be extended to white women by 1920 and extended to black women by 1965, when i think of the last 50 years, there has been enormous progress from one perspective and we see that progress with the black elected officials, congressional black caucus and the election of barack obama. there is also huge setbacks. we think of huge setsetbacks. that s really pushing away from the civil rights movement and the social justice movement.
through. when you see their faces it really broke me down a bit. they were young girls who are heavily pregnant, wanting to have birthright citizenships. things like that. and you would see the pure exhaustions on their face. that was heart breaking. so it s a real humanitarian story here. the other thing that i found that the ngos provided was cash and prepaid credit cards. all sorts of seabs, it was surprising to find they were coming from government funded ngos. todd: the biden administration insists this is the most humane thing to do it. is this humane at all. the only ones benefiting from all of this are really the cartels and coyotes. the migrants get to cross over but they enter a life of servitude and, you know, the u.s. government and taxpayers are paying for all of this.

laura: chuck grassley looked like he agreed with paul ryan today. which was a little disappointing for those of us who really like chuck grassley. i want to just go through the list of countries, not that this matters, but that do not offer birthright citizenships. australia, austria, denmark, france, germany, israel, italy, japanese, new zealand, norway, slovakia, south korea, sweden, switzerland, spain, the uk, none of them offer this type of birthright citizenship. and we will get into this in a moment. it does create perverse incentives and this birth tourism issue that we are get into deeply here, it s a huge problem and we have horrible situations happening in new york and california, with their abuses and so forth. so forth. how do you think this ultimately comes down, andy? i think a lot of it depends on how it goes up to the supreme
