we ve had many of the leaders on both sides of the aisle vote for this many times, this has long history, the great credit of bill clinton. he brokered a deal with duncan hunter, the first congressman, the father in san diego, when he offered a three barrier, three layers, three different walls, at certain portions of the border where high traffic proven smuggling routes were, or there s built up urban centers, that s what exists northwest of tijuana, south of san diego. and bill clinton, actually approved, signed into law two walls, two barriers, and that never was achieved. this isn t a democrat or republican issue, we should be pushing for secure borders and safety in enforcement of the law. david, what is wrong with, in your opinion then having the president s border wall as he talked about it during the campaign. well, you make a great point anderson is what the president said during the campaign.
special to do the job. steel slats. i ve made my position very clear. any measure that funds the government must include border security. has to. worth reminding you yet again, because this is not a skit in a late-night comedy show, tonight the president after giving democrats a steel slat barrier wall to vote on, says it s all their fault if the government shuts down over there. it s up to the democrats. it s the democrat shutdown. amazing how he has no problem saying the complete opposite of something he said just a couple days ago. here he is one week ago about a shutdown over the wall. 20 times you have called for, i will shut down the government if i don t get my wall. none of us have said you ve said. you ve said.
it i ll take it. you know what i ll say? yes. if we don t get what we want one way or the other, whether through you, through a military, through anything you want to call, i will shut down the government. fair enough, we disagree. we disagree. and i am proud to shut down the government for border security, chuck. i will take the mantle. i will be the one to shut it down. i won t blame you for it. is. obviously didn t keep his word on that particular point. let s make no mistake, the president is pushing for a wall that neither democrats or enough republicans want to give him. this isn t a democrat versus republican thing. it s the president s wall, this set of steel slat barriers and his shutdown. kaitlan collins is in front of the white house. the president says this could be a long shut down in his words. that seems to have changed. that attitude we saw from the
this is exactly what moscow would have wanted. obviously, they would have also liked policy changes and sanctions to be lifted, things like that but the other goal they would have had is exactly this. to pit white against black, republican against democrat, conservative against liberal, outside the coasts against the coast, this is what they want in our society. let s talk about some of the imagery that was released and we want to put this all in context. this is all fraudulent and give more credence and further confuse people and these are examples of the visuals they use to try to really diminish hillary clinton. obviously, all very negative. that s one aspect of it, andrea. we have these amazing, this amazing social media technology invented by americans and what these reports show is that the russians insidiously turn that technology against us and they use it to undermine our institutions, to undermine
so this is not, you know, michael cohen isn t a democrat opponent who was for hillary clinton in 2016. he was the president s own fixer for all these years and not just his words. kristen mentioned, it s the american media folks, david pecker and so forth. a tough time in the white house. unhappy with these things coming at them from all sides. and michael flynn, he s going to be sentenced tomorrow and before the sentencing, there s sort of clearing the decks and showing one other aspect of how he cooperated with investigators. this is an investigation and these charges now against two of his associates connected to turkey and this comes from the eastern district of virginia. this is not from mueller. hear the, andrea. and this underlines the scheme from which mike flynn s company was paid to lobby for the government of turkey in an effort to discredit this who lives in the united states, an enemy of the turkish government and also shows that for all the talk that mike flynn was an
