you have made it here. you will make it. and that s the kind of spirit that truly is an american spirit, right? it s truly an american spirit. we re going to do it however and that you re going to take with you no matter where you end up. by the way, don t give up, because they have all of their employers, all of their neighbors. what s going to happen now, right, is that daca, like white supremacy is out there. and everybody s talking about it. so, thank you, donald j. trump for making daca the thing now that everybody s talking about come out of the closet. maybe they will, i m not saying do that, but this could be one of those moments. i m glad you brought that up, maria, baa i think the question now, i ve been rereading a letter from birmingham jail which gets me, martin luther king saying history will record in this period of social transition the greatest tragedy is not the appalling clamber of the bad people but the appalling silence of the good people. what that means all tho
bounty is more absorbent, so the roll can last 50% longer than the leading ordinary brand. so you get more life per roll. bounty the quicker picker upper. what s your decision on daca, mr. president? a decision on daca? some time today or over the weekend we ll have a decision. should dreamers be worried? we love the dreamers. we love everybody. thank you very much. this has been yet another busy news week with harvey devastating the city of houston and multiple developments in the trump russia scandal. for the next hour i want to talk to you about the 800,000 americans who may soon be at risk of deportation, the dreamers, undocumented immigrants who came to this country as children under the age of 16, for many of whom
minutes with us, with daca recipients who have been volunteering and helping here in the city of houston, to come meet us and to so he can understand and remove the stereotype that is here. we re not here to cause any harm. we re here to help. that is all we want. joining me now, jose antonio vargas. thank you all. julietta, i know you re coming from a protest, can you tell us what that was all about? yeah, we did all night protest outside the governor s mansion office. i m really exhausted. it was all night. but it was to send a very clear message. when governor abbott passes and signs a very racist and unconstitutional law and although we got a temporary halt by the judge garcia we also wanted to make it clear to a.g.
in point of fact on the campaign trail is his solution is deport people, is that people need to go. he said, quote, they need to go. they have to go. so i m not sure how you square that with the idea of compassion if his solution is to remove people from the united states. well, of course certainly we re not going to remove millions of people. but if you end daca, then all 800,000 people are subject to deportation immediately. well, so i think what the president and, again, he can obviously speak for himself on tuesday, but what i think the president is saying is he s simply saying, look, let s come the buck has to stop somewhere. we have to draw the line in the sand at some point. so obviously up until now we re not going to just let hard working people who are 35, 32 years old, all different types of ages just say you got to go and that s it. but i do believe the line has to start somewhere. we have to draw the line at some point say, okay, what are the requirement and change
