We have a duty to set rules at our border. To enforce them. But critics say it s a stunt on the stump. Plus he s called volodymyr zelenskyy, nasty salesman. And now with ukraine s fate in the balance, donald trump praises the country s invader to zelensky s face relationship. As you know, with president putin. Also gazans mayor gets his mug shot and eric adams suggest the charges are president biden s payback and days before his vp debate j. D. Vance is set to appear with a maga pastor who claims kamala harris engages in witchcraft live at the table, chocolate rocha, erinperrine, lima, gowin, shermichael singleton, and jamil hill with 38 days to go. Americans with different perspectives aren t talking to each other but here they do good evening. I m abby phillip in new york. Let s get right to what america is talking about this friday. Kamala harris suddenly sounding like a hawk on one of her weakest issues in her first visit to the southern border as the democratic nominee and her fir
dhs secretary ken cuccinelli. ken, welcome. this situation tells me two things, one, russians want to leave russia and two, they know our southern border is open, right? those are two things and a third when you see the asylum claims coming out of this population is there is downright fear among russians much their own government. this isn t random. now they can be gaming our asylum system. other people do that all the time. nonetheless, i would add that third one in there, rachel. and i do think, that setting immigration aside for the moment, there is some benefit to us on the political world, world political stage of granting some of these asylum cases so we can tell their story to undermine putin in the eyes of the world. so, again, that aside from the immigration aspect of this, but
well, certainly a concern. but the bipartisan bill is very instructive here. remember the bipartisan infrastructure deal that there was a deal, then it fell apart, an agreement again, then it fell apart. happens a few times before you get to the finish line. that s what s happening here. a reminder, the reason it is even more challenging to get to the finish line is because republicans are refusing to participate. if you are looking forward to extending the child tax credit, if you re a parent that is trying to get back to work but need a safe place to leave your kid when they re not in school, if we learn nothing else from this pandemic, it is the need to invest in modernizing, expand capacity of our healthcare infrastructure, it is democrats that are figuring out how to do that and republicans don t want to lift a finger. senator padilla, we know the immigration aspect of this, the senate parliamentarians said could not be included in this bill. something you ve been behind and y
essential part of the workforce. it only works when it all works together. i want to ask you about the immigration aspect of this. you re talking about how important it is to get something passed when it comes to climate change. what is the new timeline for build back better now? look, my timeline was months ago. so if we need to take a few more weeks or whatever the time frame is to actually get it done, then let s do that. i know negotiations continue in real time. it is not shelved. i take issue with the characterization that it has been shelved. the deadline has been extended. we don t know the hard deadline but the work and the negotiations continue. isn t this exactly what progressive democrats were worried about, though, that they would vote for the infrastructure bill, it would get passed, signed into law, and when it comes to this other second part they wanted to move together with it, now it is stalled? you don t want to say shelved, but it is stalled. there is no timel
parliamentarian this week. you want this bill passed this week. is that going to happen? i can tell you, we can get it ready this week and pass it next week is probably a realistic goal. my fingers are crossed. sooner we can move to it, the better. if it be can done this week, it should be done this week. we re working, have been working nonstop on this immigration aspect of reconciliation for months now, it seems. i think we re close to the final decision as to whether we can go forward. is manchin on board with getting immigration in this? joe manchin voted for comprehensive immigration reform as a number of republicans did. he s as committed to that happening and i am too. i hope i can appeal to joe sure includes this. pramila jayapal said she wants want s to see the text of the big social spending plan.
