vote on all of this such that the president gets this on his desk? i think we are getting closer, but i agree with the president. this proposal doesn t have enough money in it for border security. we will keep working with the white house, but we would need to make sure we secure the border. after what i saw, spending the night on the southern border just yesterday morning in the wee hours, i am more convinced than ever that congress must act to support this president in building the wall. harris: where were you? senator purdue of george and myself spent the night it was the wee hours of monday morning. we were picked up a border security, border patrol, at 2:30 in the morning. we were down to the rio grande valley sector, which is white outside of mcallen, texas. it is ground zero of where most illegal apprehensions are occurring as we speak. where much of the drugs are coming across, they are coming right across that section. i wish every member of congress would take off the
somebody who was in need, which is a nice story not much or how that related to today s economy but nevertheless america still is dogged by racism, wealth inequality. that s where we are going in 2020. what you saw tonight is a president that landed his speech, one of the most historic speech as i can remember. he laid out a vision for america that build on successes of his presidency so far and the results he s achieving right now. the response builds on a per false narrative that s not built on any reality of fact. this is the greatest economic turnaround in our history. we have the highest median income in u.s. history, the lowest african-american unemployment in history, loss of employment 50 years, this economy is rocking the cause of the policies that president trump has implemented over the first two years. laura: senator purdue, stacy abrams said in georgia and around the country people are striving for a middle class where a salary truly equals economic security but instea
laura: thank you, i m laura ingraham, this is the ingraham angle. washington still buzzing from the state of the union tonight. he laid out his agenda, counting his successes in taking on partisan investigations briefly and revenge politics. we will analyze all of that, plus, how the other networks, as i just mentioned, are pathetically spinning it. senator david purdue and democrat congressman brad sherman are both here. plus, matt schlapp, byron york, frank luntz. raymond arroyo and many others. but first, just some of the highlights of a speech that sent a powerful message to the country and her elected officials. there is a new opportunity in american politics, if only we have the courage together to seize it. victory is not winning for our party, victory is winning for our country. but we must reject the politics of revenge, resistance, and
the senate claire mccaskill was on another network tonight. essentially saying the president is threatening democrats, let s watch. the weirdest thing for me was the line he put in about there cannot be legislation essentially what he said is there cannot be legislation if you are investigating. basically threatening congress. laura: is that what he did tonight? of course not. this is the false narrative. when you can t talk about your policies and the results that they have achieved this is what you do. it s a false narrative not based on any reality. laura: what was it like in there tonight? we were all watching they were all in white. it was kind of a stunt. the president kind of stole the joke from them. with the suffragettes. he kind of had that whimsical mustang congratulations, good for you. what you saw as a president hitting his stride, buoyant on the results that his agenda is retrieving and it s disgusting, frankly to see americans sit on their hands when you t
of living. we know bipartisanship could craft the 21st century immigration plan but this administration chooses to cage children and tear families apar apart. compassionate treatment at the border is not the same as open borders. we must all embrace that from agriculture to health care to entrepreneurship, america is made stronger by the presence of immigrants, not walls. even as i m very disappointed by the president s approach to our problems, i still don t want him to fail. but we need him to tell the truth and to respect his duties and respect the extraordinary diversity that defines america. laura: here not to respond, georgia senator david purdue. senator purdue, wow, stacy abrams, i think she did an able job. always difficult to follow the president. she seemed very conversational, started off with kind of a hardscrabble story about her father and given a code to
