talked about the chemistry professor that was here for 30 years. i don t understand why they re focusing on that. i think what happened is the pendulum has swung so far the other way. because under the obama administration, i.c.e. interior enforcement and deportations were down astronomically. unfortunately. and people felt that things had gotten out of control. now this administration with trump s rhetoric and tough talk on immigration, the pendulum has swung the other way. i don t see how this is helping the debate in a pragmatic way. we know he was brought here when he was 1 1/2. like many undocumented immigrants, he can t get a real license so he got arrested as a teen for having a fake license. he was deported in 2006. he s been deported twice. carlos, i want your take on this, what do you say? first of all, i sympathize with jesus story. it s very unfortunate, the situation that he s put himself
i don t see how this is helping the debate in a pragmatic way. we know he was brought here when he was 1 1/2. like many undocumented immigrants, he can t get a real license so he got arrested as a teen for having a fake license. he was deported in 2006. he s been deported twice. carlos, i want your take on this, what do you say? first of all, i sympathize with jesus story. it s very unfortunate, the situation that he s put himself in. and i m very glad that he got that work permit for a year s stay. i believe the many trump supporters would sympathize with him and would want to do the right thing. however, we cannot ignore the law. this is the greatest nation in the world because of the law system and because of many, many other things. so he just experienced this nation s grace. and i.c.e. decision of him staying.
that man is jesus beronnes. he joins me along with his lawyer, garrett wilkes. thank you so much for joining us. how are you doing? we re doing good. i m good, thanks. jesus, at first i want to ask you about the news tonight that i.c.e. has granted you a stay here in the u.s. as well as one-year work permit. how are you feeling about this tonight? i feel happy. i feel happy because i.c.e., they approved my application for the stay. do you feel that you can leave the sanctuary of the church that you re in tonight, the church where you are, and be able to stay here with your family?
we appreciate you coming and telling your story. garrett, thank you so much. please keep us updated on what s going on about and we ll have you back on. thank you. thank you for the support. good luck to your son, jesus. when we come back, this is what the president is saying about getting a deal done on daca. if the democrats want to make a deal, it s really up to them. i can tell you, speaking for the republican party, we would love to do daca. we would love to get it done. will a deal get done? i thought i was managing my moderate to severe ulcerative colitis. but i realized something was missing. me. the thought of my symptoms returning was keeping me from being there for the people and things i love most. so, i talked to my doctor and learned humira can help get, and keep,uc under control when other medications haven t worked well enough. and it helps people achieve control that lasts so you could experience few or no symptoms. humira can lower your ability to fight
be able to go home now and be with my whole family at home. it s important for you to be with a child, especially a sick child. yes. i m sure that will help in his recovery. so you were supposed to be deported today. you were forced to seek shelter in this church. tell us why how did your situation get to this point, jesus? how did you get here? i got here because my attorney asked for help, who can help me in the church. and this church was the first one to answer back that they were open, they will open the doors for me and help me. so that was my next step, to come here and stay at this church. garrett, how did this situation get to this point?
