dana. thank you very much. great to see you. all right, good evening everyone, i m alisyn camerota. welcome to cnn tonight. the u.s. is bracing for tens of thousands of desperate migrants to try to cross the southern border in a few days. that s when the trump era policy expires, that allowed some ministry quickly turned away. already, men, women, and children are lining up for food, sleeping on the streets. when 150,000 people are reportedly just across the border waiting to cross. but it s the responsibility of congress to pass new immigration laws. so, what can the biden ministration actually do? our panel has ideas. plus, nobody wants to live in fear that we re only a day or two away from the next mass shooting. this past weekend saw another one, eight people killed, this time at a mall in allen, texas. the shooter was a 33-year-old who served in the military for three months. but a defense official says he was terminated years ago because of a mental health condition. th
this point. but people have always come here, seeking asylum, seeking citizenship, whatever. says now we have, you know, the political game book of let s put people on buses, that ship them out, let s use them as pawns. and frankly, i think people are tired of that. but do you think that mayor adams is playing political gamesmanship? in other words, if he sang his city, a sanctuary city, cannot accommodate them, is that political or is that reality? i think he s always been trying to win points with republicans based on his policies. i think he got elected true. largely because republican support him, i mean, i democrats always gonna be the mayor of new york, unless, you know, there s bloomberg, but come on. but bloomberg was and lindsey, and laguardia. right, and you have to have a level of being very centrist. and he ran on centrist ideas. right. and i think if he was, you, know owning up to the fact that new york is a very diverse city, when millions, tens of m
sound more like a centrist and talk about more centrist ideas. for now, i think he s given up on them as they ve given up on him. heather: as we wrap up, who do you that i gop candidate would be? i don t have any magic formulas for this. i think whoever the candidate is, has a tough act, as every primary candidate has to appeal to the base of the party. then move to the center during the general election. right now i think the republicans are fighting to secure the base. in the end, one of the winner is going to have to attract the independents. otherwise, president obama will stand a good chance of being elected, a better chance than it looks like he has right now. heather: we ll see was. thank you michael. reminder for everyone, you can read michael s column in the sunday new york post . gregg: always a great read. tensions rising in the mideast as palestinians move forward with their bid for united nations membership.
