to prepare us for the future. you guys are saying that you are not following federal law, you are entering into agreements. the next step would be war, right? no, although governors are in charge of national guards. no, we are not going to take camp pendleton and attack mexic mexico. you and i both want the economy to grow. why would we not want to grow our economy? why not create more jobs in a sector that already has eight times as many jobs as the coal sector does? let s move forward, let s take advantage. why not get some of that money back from the chinese that they are holding of ours? this is a great way to do it. it is sharing technology, it s opening markets, and it is building our economy here in california. tucker: this is hilarious on so many levels. of course a lot of that green technology is subsidized
on our investment in california. tucker: because california doesn t have a right to do that because it is a state. you are basically creating your own foreign policy. when that right is constitutionally reserved for the federal government. that used to be obvious, but california is so high on its own fumes that they lost sight of that somehow. no, but this is a nonbinding agreement, again. counties and states have already been doing this for decades now. there is nothing new about this. if he had signed something that said it was a binding agreement, you and i would be in total agreement that that was violating the constitution. but why not get a return, why not lead in this country, since d.c. doesn t want to lead. why not lead in the 21st and 22nd century energy sources. instead of what the president is doing which is falling back into 16th century sources falling back on coal. tucker: would you declare war on mexico? what other unilateral decisions.
don t know, he was the chief of police of a sanctuary city before he came over to the department of home land security. steve: interesting stuff. so had he stayed in place but he wouldn t have, he probably wouldn t be crazy about the wall, right? absolutely not. i m sure he would have fought it tooth and nail because he actually came out and made a statement he was against the wall. he said it was a waste of time and money. steve: well, the wall is coming. donald trump has made it very clear. congress is going to build it and we have heard that mexico is going to pay for it. you re okay with that right? well, absolutely. and they do have a deputy chief that s just underneath mr. morgan that has all this experience and why carla was not put in the position of chief of the border patrol is beyond me. she had that experience. steve: political stuff we don t know about. david, thank you for joining us from seattle today, sir. you re quite welcome. steve: latest move to protect
begin the border wall, border patrol chief mark morgan wound up resigning from his position. but did his appointment in the first place say more about president trump s feelings about the border than anything else? for more we turn to national association border patrol officers board member david ward who joins us today from seattle. david, good morning to you. good morning. steve: all right. as is customary, when there is an incoming administration you ask for everybody always puts their resignation on the boss desk. he accepts some of them. he took this guys. you say this is a good thing for america because you didn t like this guy to start with. why? it s not so much that i didn t like the guy. in the 93-year history of the border patrol, this is the first individual who had absolutely no border patrol experience in any of the rank and file to make it to the position of the chief of the border patrol. he weighs fbi agent and i m sure he was an expert with the fbi but not with t
12 to $15 billion. so we intend to address the wall issue ourselves. the president can deal his relations with other countries. and on that issue and other issues. brian: there is also money in the stream from when george bush got the money to build the fence. there is still money to be had had there. what i think is good in tandem with this. he also went ahead and rotated out the head of border patrol. he got hired a few months ago. he wasn t getting along with the union. the union voted for donald trump and the theory is we re going to make a change. he got four people out of the state department. the pace in which things are happening to enoocket president trump s agenda is surprising to me because is he new to this political thing. ainsley: is he saying he is going to get mexic mexico to par it i said how are you going to do it he said we will get congress. eventually mexico will pay us back. sean spicer said you were mentioning the imports.
