The u. S. Southern border. Good morning, everybody. The hearing will come to order. Ill make an Opening Statement and then senator feinstein and i think senator cornyn and durbin would also like to make a statement.

And theres a lot of talk about the disaster at the border in terms of humanitarian assistance needed yesterday. So i think the game plan is that were going to take the 4. 5 billion that was in the disaster package that was unfortunately taken out and mark it up next week as a standalone proposition to get money flowing to the border to deal with the Housing Conditions and take some stress, not only off the agents, but the migrants. I think it would be money wellspent as 3. 3 billion for humanitarian assistance increases in the shelter cap

His wife killed someone with her car and the damage to the car was enough that she wanted another car. And so the story of that bribe car in the indictment has just become very very dark. We will get to that later in this hour tonight. But it is mentioned in the indictment that there was a car accident but it doesnt say in the indictment that she actually killed someone.
