than i would run the department with professionalism and integrity. i will seek the advice of the career ethics personnel, but under the regulations i make the decision as to my own recusal. i think one of the major problems is the president says is the immigration laws have to be changed. i feel it is a critical part of border security that we need to have barriers on the border. we need a barrier system on the border. >> lou: bars answers and pressing even some of the democrats. mainly, diane feinstein who expects barr to be confirmed easily. >> i think the candidate is answering questions. i think doing well the questions cover a fairly wide range. these go on hour after hour. so i think he is held up well. >> you see this as an easy road heading to confirmation. >> i think so. >> we discussed the reaction and what to expect. gregg jarrett is with us tonight. the national left-wing media says president trump lacks support for the building of his border wall on that new national polls show the exact opposite. the president gaining support. the wall support is at an all-time high and rising quickly now is clearly the time to build it. we address the president's continued efforts to end the human trafficking and criminal illegal aliens crossing our border. congressman sean duffy joins us tonight. will be talking trade and what we will do about the high tariffs of our trading partners. sarah carter on illegal immigration. it amy tarkanian with us tonight on the republican party struggle with mitt romney. all of that here tonight. president trump's nominee for attorney general, william barr spending nearly nine hours on capitol hill. he endured questioning from the senate judiciary committee. fox news chief intelligence correspondent, catherine has our report from capitol hill. >> i will not be bullied into doing anything. by anybody, whether it be editorial boards, congress, or the president. >> from the outset william barr said he will protect the special counsel investigation. >> the country needs a credible resolution to these issues. >> bar sought no chance the probe will be shut down for cause. he pledged to make the molar report. >> i will pledge to get this information out there. >> are there any circumstances that will cause you to terminate the investigation? >> bob mueller could only be terminated for good cause. frankly, it's unimaginable to me that bob would do anything that would give rise to good cause. >> other democrats -- they questioned if the special counsel could bring an obstruction of justice case against the president for firing james comey. >> if the president orders the attorney general to halt a criminal investigation for personal reasons, would that be prohibited under your theory? >> i think it would be a breach of the president's duties to faithfully execute the law. it would be an abuse of power. >> he revealed that the president reach out to possibly join his legal team in june 2017. the conversation also turn to the special counsel. >> he was interested in that and wanted to know what i thought about him mueller's integrity. i said that bob is a straight shooter. >> reporter: barr has served as attorney general for george w. bush. >> i am in a position in life where i can do the right thing and not really care about the consequences. >> on reports that the president was directed to fire comey, barr said that they operated largely unchecked. >> are there rules on how you can do counterintelligence investigations? >> i believe there are. >> if you want to open one up against the president, are there any checks and balances? >> not outside the fbi. >> a bar called text messages between peter strock and lisa page, inappropriate. >> i was shocked when i saw them. >> please get to the bottom of it. we are relying on you to clean this place up. >> reporter: barr will investigate whether there was abuse during the 2016 campaign, when they used in anti- trump dossier for trump campaign aide. >> lou: thank you. barr will be back before the hearing committee tomorrow morning. 9:30 a.m. for day two of his confirmation hearing. joining me now, former reagan white house political director, and analyst your impressions of barr and how he did today. by the way, it was a joke that those people would be insisting on impartiality, a lack of bias as they have put on one of the most horrible circuses in the hearings. >> i think every answer he gave was a correct one. he made it very clear that he reported to the president that he would not come in with preconceived notions. he argued the points of view that the immigration line needed to be rewritten. it would not be rewritten without the security of the law. >> i think the dems, it's interesting, they backed off. they are obviously leery of entangling camille harris. she did not show up with that nonsense today because she's looking at a nominee that would come i think she understands he deserves respect and to treat them otherwise would create problems for her, instantly. one of the things i was disturbed by is that barr said all the right things as far as i was concerned about the barrier on the border. part of the larger issue border security. the larger issue of immigration reform itself. stopping illegal immigration. i would've liked to hear him say very clearly that there is no independence issue here. the president brought him into do a job, he understands the role of the president. he said there's no checks on the fbi. that's nonsense. the fact of the matter is this president is a check of the fbi. he can clean the agency up and must do so through his attorney general. that agency, rancid, corrupt, toxic from the top to the bottom of its leadership. >> william barr in his earlier service always belon believed ia strong executive. he made it clear that he is part of the executive branch. i keep hearing them say is the people's lawyer. he is appointed by the president to serve the country. he will do that. your points are very valid. i think he has to clean up the fbi. we need the first-order is to get the mueller report taking care of. >> would there be any reason for this president to fire this attorney general. it would be a failure to clean up the fbi. this agency has destroyed itself. >> no question about that. it's back to the days of j edgar hoover. it's a dark period of the fbi. i think overall he did very well. it will be interesting to see where we go. as diane feinstein said, it is time to end these endless committee hearings and confirmation hearings because a bunch of two bit senators want airtime. >> there is no reason he can't finish tomorrow and be confirmed next week. it just needs to be done that quickly. >> lou: the white house in the midst of this, the president is governing, the world's only superpower, deeply complex, profoundly challenging. right now, he doesn't appear to be getting help from anyone in the senate. does not seem to be getting much help from the house. it is an extraordinary period of time in which he has to contend with robert mueller and put up with the nonsense. >> in the new york times, washington post, and mainstream media. the reality is, some of these people need to step forward and argue his points of view and defend him. >> lou: how is he doing on border security and ending this nonsense of pelosi and schumer that they will not do anything to protect the nation and ensure the safety of american citizens. >> he has made his position clear. it's up to them to bring him a bill that has is $5.6 billion. when they do that, he will act on it. he doesn't need to negotiate every day. he doesn't need to make points every day. >> lou: what about bringing in moderate democrats? >> is not going to happen. i was there when we had coalitions in southern democrats. we have not had them since. >> lou: one more committee of eight, 16, or whatever. this is the stuff of grandiose dreams. >> until pelosi and schumer decide they are going to play ball, it is not going to happen. >> lou: okay. irs bringing back 60% of those for load without pay to get tax refunds out. moving ahead. >> we need to keep moving the government forward. anything they can do on that front is positive. >> great. >> up next, the left is refusing to negotiate border security with the president. they had a lot to say about the government shutdown. >> we need to end the reckless trump shutdown. >> let the presidency the pain that the trump shutdown is causing. >> let's reopen government. >> people across the country are paying attention, they wanted to and. >> it's time to open the government. >> this is not government working. >> there is not a government that wants to see $5 billion wasted on a partial payment of a wall. >> the american people are overwhelmingly on our side. a good number of republicans are on our side. i think the movement is in our direction. >> lou: what an objective viewpoint from senator schumer. it turns out the facts suggest the exact opposite, no surprise there. we'll take that up in more right after this quick break. congressman sean duffy will join us. stay with us, we will be right back to make you everybody else... ♪ ♪ means to fight the hardest battle, which any human being can fight and never stop. does this sound dismal?

where is the chamber of congress, the business roundtable on wall street? i'm sure they're excited about congress with duffy. bring forward the reciprocal trade act. >> congress came out and tried to sandbag this movement to give the president more tools. basically saying, we are trying to raise tariffs. this gives us further away from the tariff war and brings us to tariff piece. we do not want tariffs. if we have fair trade and free trade, the american worker, the american manufacturer will win. sometimes these organizations care about selling stuff. they don't care as much about making the stop. >> lou: absolutely. you may not like tariffs or may not want them right now, but we sure as hell want this president to have the power to raise tariffs on countries that treat us in the fashion they have been accustomed to in the last 30 years under previous administrations. those who left to play us for fools. >> lou: if you want to call a member of congress and say get on this bill, give the president the authority and tools necessary to win this fight for america, that would be great. >> lou: i think they heard you loud and clear. i'm sure they will oblige. congressman, good to have you with us. congressman sean duffy. my priest of pettiness, mid to romney, senator romney now, had the temerity to counsel president trump, admonishing him over his july 2018 meeting with russian president, vladimir putin. romney calling it inappropriate for the president to talk to putin without careful records. romney is now fashioning himself as some sort of nuisance. he is obviously committed to this role. frankly, he is, as i have said a number of times, lower than a snake's belly, and i cannot imagine what the people of utah were thinking when they sent him to the nation's capital. up next, 2000 central american migrants on their way, again. to the united states. coming up from mexico. they are hondurans, they have reached the southern border of mexico, headed toward ours. investigative journalist, sarah carter joins us next. we will have more. before we go to break, quick look at the national debt, moving toward $22 trillion. up next. ♪ maybe you'd mellow out a bit if you got geico to help you with your renters insurance. oh, geico helps with renters insurance?

jardiance significantly reduces the risk of dying from a cardiovascular event... ...and lowers a1c, with diet and exercise. let's give it another try. jardiance can cause serious side effects including dehydration. this may cause you to feel dizzy, faint, or lightheaded, or weak upon standing. ketoacidosis is a serious side effect that may be fatal. symptoms include nausea, vomiting, stomach pain, tiredness, and trouble breathing. stop taking jardiance and call your doctor right away if you have symptoms of ketoacidosis or an allergic reaction. symptoms of an allergic reaction include rash, swelling, and difficulty breathing or swallowing. do not take jardiance if you are on dialysis or have severe kidney problems. other side effects are sudden kidney problems, genital

mexico, unlike thousands of migrants from last year's caravan, they camped out and remained camped out in shelters in and around tijuana. president trump is reacting to the new caravan. he tweeted this " a big new caravan is heading up to our border from honduras. tell nancy and chaka drone flying around won't stop them. only a wall will work. only a wall or steel barrier will keep our country safe. stop playing clinical games and and the shut down ". >> lou: is now day 25 of the shut down. they continue to fight for the border. make no mistake, walls to work in countries are using them battling their own influx of migrants were to stave off terrorist. currently, there are 65 countries that have completed or have walls under construction. only 16 countries had walls at the time of the fall of the berlin wall. in total, there are at least 77 walls or barriers built worldwide. forty-five countries have proposals to build border walls. since 2015, more than 800 miles of border in europe. in other words, walls work. we like to hear about your thoughts. follow me on twitter at lou dobbs, like me on facebook and follow me on instagram at lou dobbs. joining us now, sir carter. sarah, good to have you with us. your thoughts about first, the wall. we are looking at empirical evidence of every kind. were told by the border patrol, by customs, by everyone that walls work. they want to wall. we look around and there are 65 nations that have built them. the walls work. yet, nancy pelosi and chuck schumer are deniers. >> they are deniers based on politics. this is all political for them. it's not about national security. >> lou: so they don't care about the country whatsoever. >> absolutely, this point. if they are denying what is blatantly in our face, statistics about people crossing the border. let me give you an example. i was in texas last week. i went on to report from the border. i was in an area near the rio grande valley sector patrolled by border patrol. their resources are slim so they have them scattered throughout the area. it's a heavy sector, heavy traffic flows. i was sitting on private property of a texan who owns land near the rio grande valley. across the board here come two men crossing the rio grande river coming up through. i went up to them and was speaking to them in spanish. they had no idea what i was saying. i realize they do not speak spanish. i asked if they spoke english and they settle little. i asked where they were from. they were from bangladesh. these two men were trafficked all the way from bangladesh, through dubai, through brazil with special-interest aliens. the reason dhs qualifies them as that and it was qualified under the obama administration come is because bangladesh had issues with al qaeda and islamic state. within 15 minutes of me sitting there in a desolate area, two men from bangladesh across the border. they're talking to me. no identifiers, no backpacks, they're coming to turn themselves in. >> you been covering the border for a long while. many of us. the idea that the president has to explain to the american people why a border wall is necessary, why it is critically important that we stop the export from mexico to our country the deadliest drugs of the world whether it's methamphetamine, marijuana, cocaine, heroin, or fentanyl. mean, were looking at weapons of mass destruction without any question. yet, schumer, the democratic, the radical dems are indifferent to the deaths that occur every year. 70000 of them from opioid and synthetic opioids in this country. what in the world is wrong with this country that we have to explain to people, you really need to protect yourself, your border, and your nation. >> it's unconscionable what the drug cartels and the criminal trafficking organizations have done. not only to our country but the people there trafficking and the threat they pose to our entire hemisphere. as the first time we have a president at least since the bush administration, president who is willing to do the right thing. a president who's willing to put his money where his mouth is. to say look, i'm here to protect this country. thus my duty as commander-in-chief. i'm here to protect the united states. a border wall is necessary. we are sovereign nation. we have a right to do this. this is the reason why william barr during his testimony was so accurate when he said look, we need to change some of these laws. they figured out our loopholes. we have people pouring across the border. we don't always know who they are. we only know about the people we catch, not about the people we don't catch. >> obviously one of the most absurd and tragic loopholes is that in ms13 gang members traveling with the child has to be brought into this country right now under existing immigration law. it's madness itself. sarah carter, it's great to see you. look forward to seeing you soon. >> thank you. >> british prime minister,

[heartbeat] >> president trump will not answer questions from special counsel, robert mueller. we have learned mueller had follow-up questions for the president, surely at after he submitted written answers in november. truck's legal team replying that the president would not answer any more questions, written, in person or in any way. obama appointed district judge, jesse furman blocked the trump administration from asking about citizenship on the 2020 senses. get ready for this. this is the first time in american history that a federal court has ruled that the federal government cannot ask a question on the senses. i repeat. it's unprecedented. it has never happened before. courts have routinely rejected challenges to questions on the senses. joining us now is harvey dillon, part of the republican national association. it's great to have you with us on the broadcast. gregg jarrett, foxbusiness legal analyst. good heavy here. this obama appointed judge, it seems to me on the face of it, just as a layman, it is out of history to even think about policing what will be on the senses. can we know too much about the american people? >> not at all, lou. i found this opinion which i'm still trying to comprehend very puzzling and wrong. for one thing, this question has been asked many times through the middle of the 19th century. it's a question that has relevance to a number of things including for one argument, the voting rights act. >> lou: which is the response of the commerce department. >> exactly. liberals do not want this question asked. >> then we should not ask if liberals don't want it. >> the reasoning is, if you ask the question many people will refuse to fill out the senses. what this judge went out of his way to do was really look at what conversations they had with people. >> what do you think? >> the question does not ask your legal status, it asked your citizenship. the law forbids it from being used for any purpose other than statistical analysis. which means it cannot be used for immigration enforcement. >> lou: if we wanted to use data for immigration enforcement, we could correlate social security numbers and data, with irs data. we would have a treasure trove, the mother load of immigration data. the government is out the : has integrity and has never cross that line. >> it is used, in part to draw congressional districts to ensure that voters are properly represented, not nonvoters. that's just one of the reasons. >> i don't want to let you attorneys off the hook. here we have another activist judge. a judicial system that is a disaster. you cannot get a court date, you have to have years, not months in order to move towards a trial and get a decision whether civil or criminal. we have activist judges telling the government how to operate. >> there too many people in the federal pension elsewhere that are driven by political bias. they don't like the presidents of the trying to find a way to defeat him. if this goes to the u.s. supreme court, the president is going to win. they already ruled three months ago that the commerce secretary does not have to testify about his reasons of doing that which she's entitled to do. by the way, this question has been asked in one form or another for roughly 200 years. it was obama who stopped the practice. >> say obama again. obama. barack obama do you remember him. >> dimly. >> i think it's a legitimate opinion in shows personal animus towards the court. i think gregg is correct it will ultimately be overturned by the supreme court. >> how quick do you want the last word. >> lou: you're absolutely right. an activist judge and the great thing about the presidents to supreme court appointments, he is balancing it out. >> thank you. we appreciate you both being here. >> thank you lou. the senate advancing a democratic resolution that would block u.s. sanctions against three russian companies with ties to russian oligarchs. the puzzle led by poesenator schumer passed in the senate, 5. eleven republicans including marco rubio, joe kennedy, susan collins, and others, citing was schumer and voting in favor of his measure. the debate begins. i'm next, j.p. morgan and , i think he wants to be a politician. but first, he really needs to get that bank under control. then we might pay a little more attention. we will have that are more in the confirmation hearing of william barr, republican strategist. amy tarkanian joins me next. stay with us. comcast business built the nation's largest gig-speed network. then went beyond. beyond chasing down network problems. to knowing when and where there's an issue. beyond network complexity. to a zero-touch, one-box world. optimizing performance and budget. beyond having questions. to getting answers.

times a day coast-to-coast on the sale and radio network. joining me now is the republican strategist, amy tarkanian. it's good to see you. >> lou: it is a mouthful. no worries. >> lou: let me start with the party. it is, there is such a contest in the party. there is a quiet that has settled over all of the rhino since the midterm elections. it seems they are not being aggressively supporting the president. were watching this president stand with express and embrace from the leadership in either the senate or the house. kevin mccarthy has been better than mcconnell. but this is a particular time. mcdaniel, ahead of the rnc has been supported. but there is not a real expression of unity that i see on the part of the party for this president who is doing the lords work, securing the nation, rolling back the disasters and mistakes of three previous administrations. >> he is doing a phenomenal job. i think the so-called rhinos, they are finally seeing they have been on the wrong side for a long time and feeling the heat. the general public has probably spoken up loudly. i know a number of people that i know have been putting in numerous phone calls into their congressional leaders or senators to put the pressure on them to actually stand firm with the presidents, with this government shutdown. i have friends who are feeling it in the checkbook. they're having to ask parents and grandparents to help financially. but, they do understand that if the republicans don't stand firm with the president, then our nation is going to be at a loss. i don't know if we will ever be able to recover. >> i think you're right. if this president does not persist in the trade dispute with china seeking balance. were talking $330 billion in record trade deficit with china. even as he is trying to bring to bear all of the tools at his disposal, to reach balance trade. we cannot continue to permit 600 billion in chinese theft of our intellectual property and technology. this is madness. he's the only president in 30 years who has had the guts to challenge the chinese. it's remarkable. >> it really is. it's exciting to have a fighter, like president trump finally in the white house. it's going to be imperative that we have leaders such as senator mcconnell and kevin mccarthy will stand side-by-side with him. it is absolutely asinine to sit there and watch senator schumer and nancy pelosi, and other leaders of the democrat party stand there and look into the camera look into the eyes of the american public in boldfaced lie constantly. just because
