we have this in this country. i have a lot of dreamers here. but daca, we want to take care of daca, and i hope we will. we need the support of the democrats, and they may not want to. they talk like they do, but i don t think that they do. we will find out very soon. we want something that is very, very tough, strong in terms of the border. we needed to end a chain migration, and we need to cancel the terrible visa lottery. and those are the four pillars that i talked about the other night. we called them the white house framework. a plan that will finally bring our immigration system into the 21st century. the republican position on immigration is the center, mainstream view of the american people with some extra strength of the border and security at
yes. i think the attacks on the fbi have demoralized the bureau. they started back during the campaign. let s remember. the fbi has had a really rocky year and a half going back all the way to james comey s handling of the clinton investigation. not the decision not to bring charges, but his highly unusual decision to give a public statement, which we know really rankled a lot of people inside the bureau and led to a good deal of controversy. for them to come out of that tough year in the election, and now be under attack constantly by the president of the united states, it does have an effect inside the bureau. i think the worst effect is what you see inside the republican party you. showed that clip from louie gohmert. i sat through dozens of judiciary committee hearings during the obama administration where he was spouting really what were then fringe conspiracy theories about the department of justice. those theories are no longer fringe. they re now the mainstream view of the re
less patriotic than american soldiers are a dismal case in point. so he is saying that, you know, supporting our soldiers is actually something that they re using to get funding. i don t know what planet this particular individual lives, heather. i have got to tell you i don t think it s a mainstream view. thank god for that if you want to go ride around the world and have a look what would happen if there was no united states military, north korea would invade south korea, taiwan would be overrun by china. islamic terrorists would act with complete impunity. tie rants in north africa would run around even more mercilessly than what they do. russia would continue to build the soviet empire. cataclysmic natural disasters would have no coordinated response effort. individuality would diminish and become extinct. that s what a world without the united states military looks like. heather: not to mention the
convince voters he was better on security and turnout may have been affected by heavy rains not a good sign for new beginnings well earlier we spoke to our tokyo correspondent michael pena and asked him to explain what kind of japan shinzo obvious trying to create. you know i think the keystone to understanding his vision is that you know she kind of feels that japan in the post-war era somehow had its pride damaged and i think this is kind of at the heart of what motivates him he believes that japan should become a nation which in his view is a normal nation with a normal military which has normal nationalism and pride so while this is not a mainstream view in japan it s very much been part of obvious character all throughout his life and it s what you know it s one of the things which has guided him and part of that is his family history because his own family was deeply involved in
dangerous seeds around the world. betsy to you, republicans are sending mixed messages. some blame the dnc for lack of security, some deny russia s involvement. where exactly does the party stand? you know, i think most of the criticism of the dnc and most defense of russia is coming from folks in trump s immediate, very close circle because they re still trying to push this narrative russia might not necessarily be responsible, that we don t know enough, that we don t have conclusive information. for the most part though outside of that sort of insular campaign, post-campaign transition team sector of the republican party, which is quite powerful, of course, but outside of that the general consensus, the mainstream view in the gop is that russia has overreached, it has become too militant, that it s insurge ens in ukraine are deeply troubling. that s why so many are supporting not just the
