even judge us all. and i can assure you that those comments and those bad posts that were made are not even close to describing what the men and women of the united states border patrol are out there doing each and every day. mike: art del cueto, thanks for your time, sir. thank you for having me. arthel: nerves are on edge in southern california after a magnitude 7.1 earthquake coming only a a day after a 6.4 quake. lots of dramatic scenes captured on social media, and christina coleman is covering this side of the story from our los angeles bureau. christina? reporter: hi, arthel. well, the ground shaking didn t stop people from pulling out their phones and recording these frightening moments. a lot of people took to social media and posted videos and pics last night after the 7.1 quake hit at 8:19 local time. this video was taken in a restaurant at the casino in
constantly crossing into the united states. a lot of them are turning themselves in, and that s a big issue. and, you know, getting back to the facebook issue, we don t want that to be something that categorizes our agents because that doesn t even come close to reflecting what the men and women of the united states border patrol out there do. mike: i asked secretary mcaleenan this week about this facebook issue. take a a listen, and i ll ask you to respond. a couple of bad apples expressing these kind of views, they need to be held accountable, but it s not representative of the men and women. mike: do you agree with that assessment? that s dead on. that is just 100% dead on. unfortunately, you know, people like to spin it a different way. but i can tell you wholeheartedly we don t condone that type of behavior. just like we ve never condoned individuals in political positions calling our border patrol agents nazis. mike: some have asked if it s a
if the united states does one thing with the north koreans, then the iranians look at that. so in both cases, he is protecting u.s. interests. in the case of iran, he s defending freedom of access in the waterway. in the case of north korea, he s deterring a war or a nuclear threat against the united states. but then he offers a diplomatic offramp. as long as the north koreans willing to engage on that, i think the president holds pressure where it is. but on the other hand, he s going to continue to put that pressure until the iranians adopt the similar option. but i think what s key here is the president cannot offer a sweetheart deal in north korea. he can t just say, okay, you can keep your nuclear weapons, don t worry about that, because the iranians will read that and know they can play him as well. mike: james carafano, fascinating discussion. thanks so much for your time. thanks for having me. arthel: let s go back to new orleans and dip into the 25th annual essence festival.
[laughter] if the unite wanted to if the united states wanted to continue to gather partners, i think that would put the u.s that would jeopardize, undermine our policy of really looking for international con seven is us and really, in the end, trying to press the iranians back into a diplomatic track that would actually provide a sustainable solution over time. so i think the u.s. will, if the iranians try to hurt living human beings, the united states will respond to protect them or to take out the threats to them. but i think that would be the limit of u.s. action. mike: i m curious what you see is the difference between the iran situation and north korea. we saw the president making history going into the dmz last weekend, speaking with the north korean dictator. is it the fact that north korea s willing to talk and rouhani of iran is not willing to talk at this point? well, i actually think the strategies are identical, and they have to be identical, because they re watching
her campaign announced a second quarter total under $12 million, far behind biden, sanders and buttigieg. all the presidents are far behind the president s re-election campaign. the rnc announced $105 million in the second quarter. mayor pete s campaign announced they hauled in an impressive $24.8 million in funding from nearly 300,000 donors. he told supporters he plans to spend it on staff the, especially in iowa and in new hampshire. meantime, it is lonely at the top for the democratic front-runner who is still trying to recover from a poor performance at the debates. he told cnn he was not prepared to have harris come after him on his voting record for civil rights, noting that she knew him and she knows his or knew his late son. so he tried to assure viewers that despite that exchange, he is still ready to take on president trump and is scheduled now to head to south carolina this afternoon where he will once again bring up the topic of racial relations and civil rights. mike?
