team to know what is in my head. that s part of why you see his tweets not exactly lining up with some of his top advisors said over the weekend for example. but i do think there is an effort to try to replace the communications director role. so some of names include lara ingram, steven miller, jason miller who is a former campaign official with the trump campaign. i think they are looking at a wide swath of people. they need someone that will work well with john kelly as you pointed out, someone who is also going to be a leader within the broader group and of course, you re dealing with a lot of different personalities. a lot of different perspectives in some cases. i do think this is a priority but again, i think they are looking at this role a little bit differently than you would some traditional white houses. again, one top official saying look, we do things a little differently here and of course, you saw the beginning of what some people are calling trump tv. you saw kelly who
message. to your point, when they do decide to name a secretary of state or somebody to head the defense department, will he actually come out and stand with them. those are very, very big jobs. what s interesting about rudy giuliani too, and quite frankly, lara ingram. rudy giuliani goes out yesterday and publicly says he wants to be secretary of state. who says that. doesn t sound very diplomatic. lara ingram has been on tv and will be on fox tonight. she is supposedly in contention to be the press secretary. i think it s bizarre. for these big jobs they tend to be quiet. all of a sudden today mike rogers, former chairman of the house intelligence committee. cnn contributor. part of the transition team, announces he is resigning from the team today. that caught a lot of people by surprise. i mean, i think this is part of the jared kushner assertion over what was the chris christie portfolio of the transition,
0 becoming more and more humiliating and which underscores obama s complete inability to deal with china or russia. we ll get into that later in the program instead, the g.o.p. will continue to infuriating its own base and affirmatively hurting the wage earning prospects for american workers with this toxic immigration bill. you know, i don t see how the g.o.p. coalition can really continue on this path. because of the priorities of the working people are either ignored all together or they are being openly dismissed. so, in other words, if speaker john boehner doesn t put an end to this nonsense, how can he expect an enthusiastic grass roots to rally around the g.o.p. in the future? to the senate democrats who never gave up on this issue, who and who played the g.o.p. brilliantly, i say congrats. and to all republicans who support this, he know that you are writing your own political obituary. i hope you know that you have just participated in the political equivalent of he shot trayv
0 this. but it s not easy. i m sure my colleagues haven t been able to do so. now that issue alone should make americans very cautious but let s take a deeper look why many people are upset about this bill. for starters one of the co-sponsors of the amendment bob corker admitted it does little to help interior security. he says i do wish this amendment had some other measures relative to interior security but i think the house can improve this. the conference can improve this. i hope we have the opportunity down the road to see that occur. if that s the case where the rush? let s get it right the first time in the senate. the president of border patrol agents responded with a statement, far from tough interior enforcement measures this bill now combined with the corker-hoeven into a single 1,200 page bill caters to special interest groups and in the amnesty happened and the border security never did. this bill and the amendment that was voted on today follows the exact same pattern.
0 weekend, most of the senators were already on airplanes, had gone home by then and then we voted on it monday afternoon, literally as senators ran in from the airport. and the arguments, you know, it s much like obama care. we re being told we got pass it to figure out what s in it and frankly i don t think republicans should be going along with democrats in playing those games. read senator corker s statement. why not get it right the first time? what harry reid wants to do he wants to jam this through fast. we had a total of nine amendments prior to this one that was considered. in 2007 they had roughly 50 amendments. what harry reid understands is the american people don t understand this approach. you know, sean, we ve seen this approach before in 1986, congress told the american people we re going to grant amnesty to some 3 million people here illegally and in exchange we ll secure the borders, we ll stop illegal immigration, we ll fix the problem. we all saw what happened.
