he s done what he has on climate. i ve heard grumblings among younger voters with the drilling in the arctic. he did the climate act, but now we don t like the drilling on abortion, it s really up to states to counteract the supreme court. you know, it is not easy the white house feels trump is their best bet, but it is not an easy pass for him to get the message out and show he can do more when he is blocked by congress. exactly one more news story before break. it appears fox news founder rupert murdoch will have to give live testimony in dominion s lawsuit against the network. the voting systems company would have to issue subpoenas to force the testimonies of murdoch, his
expressing their disappointment in joe biden s new border policies. they quoted, this narrow benefit will exclude thousands of migrants fleeing violence and persecution and who do not have the ability or economic means to qualify for the new parole process. how are we likely to see this play out legislatively? not in terms of legislative direction but just among members of congress and the president? yeah, i was going to say, legislatively are not going to see what that is one of the reasons we are in kind of in this mess, when it comes to immigration in this country. i think we are going to continue to hear criticisms and grumblings from the left of the democratic party. because i heard over and over from immigration advocates both in congress and among, around the country and around the world, that they feel this administration has not paid attention enough to immigration over the last two years. and that is something they feel strongly about.
