Day. And in july the economy added 164,000 new jobs, Unemployment Holding at 3. 7 percent, just off of a halfcentury low. More americans employed than ever before. 63 Percent Labor force Participation Rate and wages gaining more than three percent over the past year. It is no wonder that more voters view the economy positively today. Then they have an almost 2 decades. Nor is it any wonder that President Trumps Approval Rating on the economy has risen since may. Now at 52 percent. And to begin with a d. C. Federal judge they ruled against the Trump Administration policy to deny asylum to any illegal immigrant who enters the country outside of a designated port of entry. This judge, and obama point defines a policy quote inconsistent as he put it with the immigration act, the policy has been already blocked by another obama appointed federal judge in san francisco. It is being appealed for the ninth Circuit Court of appeals and on and on it goes. Joining us tonight, to take up the president s efforts to secure the southern border, acting customs and Border Protection commissioner, mark morgan. Great to have you with us. Lets start with the i still think, we are sitting here in august and it was february 15, the president declared a national emergency. The democrats have yet to step up. The nation is still being absolutely overrun with Illegal Immigrants at the border. The situation is improving month to month as you well know. But against last years number, this is extraordinary. Absolutely. And i think that you hit the nail on the head that right now we are looking at because of the incredible work that this president has done, negotiations with the government of mexico as well as some of the northern triangle countries, these countries are finally understanding this is a regional crisis and they are stepping up. Mexico because of the direct actions of this president administration, there stepping up in unprecedented ways. We talked about the numbers going down. You need to understand it is a direct result of those negotiations and mexico stepping up. Make no mistake, we are still in a fullblown crisis. Lou no doubt. Make no mistake as you put it, they wouldnt be cooperation with mexico, guatemala or anyone else in the region if the president had not turned tariffs. So long as the consequences of illegal immigration will be shared, i think we have every reason to believe that Lopez Obrador and leaders of the Iron Triangle countries will be far more cooperative with this administration otherwise. But that as it may be, we are still unable to secure that border. The president has won with the Supreme Court on military funds that he can transfer to the building of the wall. He has one and he has one and he is one and yet, dhs is not able to respond to the emergency. To the Urgent National crisis at the border and the influx of Illegal Immigrants. What i will say is, right now we are doing everything, dhs as well as cbp and the white house, doing everything they can within the current legal framework. And you just said it yourself, every time they go and institute a new initiative or new policy it gets from a lower court. Make no mistake, with what were doing with the governor government of mexico, this is a game changer. Right now we are sent back 27,000 individuals to mexico otherwise they would have been and are Holding Facilities or released into our country. We are making progress but to mitigate the crisis. And its role on working with unisys and Border Protection and also, on the third country state agreement. I want to thank by the way, the country of mexico. They have got 21,000 soldiers on the border right now. I am starting to like mexico a lot. They do a lot more for us than the democrats do, right . Lou what he said is absolutely the truth. We have a, now by the way did you think that you would ever hear a cheer from mexico from a rally crowd . Because that is what you heard. The national leftwing media will not acknowledge that because it does not suit the leftist National Media narrative nor does it s narrative that they have constructed about this president. But he is talking positively about mexico. That crowd, the rally crowd is boosting, not booing common boosting mexico. Appreciative of its efforts in securing the border after all, of both nations that is mexico and the United States against common enemies. And those enemies are the cartels. The 20 drug cartels in mexico. That is absolutely correct. Everything you just to the spot on. Again, over 20,000 troops. Mexico has enforced the sorghum board. They are continuing to strengthen their interior enforcement operations and help the usmexico border. It is unprecedented what they are doing right now so they do deserve kudos at this time. And in addition to what they are doing, working with us sharing intelligence and we are targeting the cartels. Stronger every single day because you are right it is a true enemy. They are a multibillion dollar industry. Every day they are exploiting migrants, abusing them, taking their money and it has to stop and we need to work together. And again, the governor of mexico, the northern tranquil countries are starting to step up meanwhile our own congress has failed again and again to do their job to pass meaningful legislation which would fix the crisis. Lou two issues here prerenal congress will not help so to me its a waste of breath even talk about Congress Stepping up. Because frankly, they dont have the guts or the sense of integrity about assuring this nations safety and that of americans. As the president has said, they put Illegal Immigrants far ahead of american citizens. But the issue is with the resources you have, the resources of the federal government, a direct work on the cartels now is a way in which to stop illegal immigration. Combine that with interior enforcement. Which is what we have been promised now for weeks and weeks and weeks. But we have not seen it materialize. This is, does not require congress, it does not require any adjustment, does not require even any more funding. It is a question of when dhs will strike, where it will stand and how it will deal with this emergency. I can tell you, we are doing just that. We are trying to continue to work from a whole government approach and work with the Mexican Government to target the cartels. That is getting stronger every single day. And with respect to i. C. E. , unfortunately, it does require congress to do some things. I. C. E. Does need additional funding. They need additional funding for headspace, additional funding for personal, to continue to increase their interior enforcement operations. Make no mistake, i used to do enforcement operations every single day. They were removing criminals every single day from the country. Lou you and i talked about this issue. Tom homan who was former director of i. C. E. , with all talked about the issue. And the reality is, we need people being moved out of fear by the tens of thousands. These are people who have had due process of law, they are under court removal orders as you well know. This is a straight forward confrontation against law, due process and whether or not this country will have the will to secure its borders and to enforce its laws. And we are not there yet because we are still not seeing substantive, significant interior enforcement. Our weekly. So, again, there are some definite limitations here. We have been asking for a very long time, the Settlement Agreement which mandates that families get released into the interior United States, we know if we detain individuals, the system is faster and were able to more readily send them back to the countries. According to law. We know that once they released into the United States with what the law says is what we have to do. It is exponential that more difficult to go in and try to find them and will know that they also get an additional layer of protection. Lou how many people would you estimate . How many people does the department of Homeland Security estimate who were under removal orders from the United States after having gone through due process and having judges ordered to be removed from the United States. How many people would you say that is in this country right now . Number between 800,000 and a million. Just what you said, they enter our country illegally, the law says we have to release them. They receive more due process than any country would have given them. They a final order of removal from ajudge and they still remain here. They thwart the law and also protected by sanctuary cities. They protected by sanctuary cities. They are breaking the law. They are under a judges order. But we are not enforcing the laws we can and youre also acknowledging we do not know where they are for crying out loud. That is part of the problem. When we release them, we will tell them, we given very specific instructions. Sometimes you put ankle bracelets on them, they cut them off, they do not respond to letters, they do not tell us where theyre going. Lou you know, anyone who will walk across your nations boundaries without, with impunity is probably not going to care about your silly little bracelet either. Thats right. What is it going to take to get dhs to move . Because weve acknowledged there is as many as a million, may be more in this country. Who have been ordered by our court system out and what youre saying is there is not the stomach to get it done . No, its not what im saying. There is the stomach lou that is the effect of what he said. With the effect is, because of the broken asylum laws, mandates we have to release these people in the United States is just a little bit of common sense that its a big country and once we release them in the United States, they are running from us, they are hiding from us and again, they are provided sanctuary in the cities that makes it exponentially more difficult to go and find them also have a final order of removal. We need his the law fixed so we can detain them during the process and when they are found to have false or inappropriate claims that we can remove them expeditiously. Weve done that before, that is what we need to do. I know, i agree with you it does not look Like Congress will act but we cannot give up on that because ultimately, that is what we need to be done. But quickly, dhs is doing a lot. Lou be careful how you say this, mark. Be careful how you say this. Dhs is doing what . They are doing a lot, lew. Lou they are not doing near enough, mark. Not near enough. And i dont care what you blame congress, or blame the easter bunny. It is the responsibility of dhs to ensure the safety of americans, to protect that border and to carry out the lawful orders of an immigration judge and a judge who has marched these Illegal Immigrants through due process to a removal order. Thats right. What should be done but again, youre kind of blaming the men and women of dhs. Lou no, sir. Let me be very clear. I am blaming the leadership at dhs. Absolutely blaming the leadership at dhs. And i think that the leadership in dhs owes every american an apology and the president an apology. And that is where we have to leave it tonight. Im just in disagreement on the whole idea of an action on the part of the dhs and expressive crisis and emergency with so much power at your disposal to carry out lawful orders of a court and to protect this country. Lou, real quick. I can tell you. Lou tell me real quick. This president and administration is doing everything we can. Lou i will not even listen to the sentence. You are not doing everything you can and that is the truth. Thank you, mark. I appreciate it. Up next, a Billionaire Technology investor takes another shot at googles work with chinas military. Military. The Peoples Liberation army. President trumps choice for intelligence chief. He is out of the running now, just days after he was nominated. We felt that congressman radcliffe was being treated very unfairly. He is an outstanding man and i asked him i said do you want to go through this for two or three months or would you want me to maybe do Something Else . And he thought about it. I said is going to be rough. I can see exactly where this is going. Lou will take up the possible alternatives, perhaps youll get to the short list that the president has fulfilled the job of national intelligence, right fact is, every Insurance Company hopes you drive safely. But allstate actually helps you drive safely. With drivewise. It lets you know when you go too fast. And brake too hard. With feedback to help you drive safer. Giving you the power to actually lower your cost. Unfortunately, it cant do anything about that. Now that you know the truth. Are you in good hands . Lou President Trump today brushing us of north korea third Missile Launch over the past eight days. The president tweeted this. Quote these missile tests are not a violation of her singapore agreement. Nor is there discussion of short range missiles when we shook hands. Chairman kim has agreed to a beautiful vision for his country and only the United States with me as president , can make that vision come true. He will do the right thing because he is far too smart not to. And he does not want to disappoint his friend, President Trump. Tech plein air going after google game for what is an extremely cozy relationship as it is described as peter with communist china. He wrote in the New York Times that google set up an Artificial Intelligence laboratory in beijing in 2017 as they ended a similar Artificial Intelligence contract with the pentagon. In other words, they are doing business with the Peoples Liberation army of communist china but disengaging from the United States military. He wrote in part quote perhaps the most charitable word for these twin decisions would be to call them nacve. How can google use the rhetoric of borderless and if its to justify working with the country whose great firewall has posed a. Address that we have fred fleitz. National security expert, president of the center for Security Policy and it is great to see you, fred. Straight up, is google betraying the United States and embracing communist china . Im afraid there is no question. On one hand google is refusing to do business with the pentagon. Because of the left wing politics, yet it is engaged in research in china that it says will never be shared with the Chinese Military then chinese nationals are involved, when attorneys intelligence and the Chinese Military get everything that is being developed in china by chinese nationals in google labs. And what should the Trump Administration be doing about this . He is not using the bully pulpit here. And thank god, his friend peter thiel is. We need new regulations defining this type of Technology Transfer as a threat to National Security. Lou wait a minute. We have to new regulations. Lou we need a regulation to secure the nation against a threat from communist china . I think there should be regulations or laws that bar google for sharing this technology with china. Yes, i do. Lou and barring that well lets just say in the absence of that regulation, there is not a host of things that we can do to make certain . Shouldnt every resource be applied right now . Why should we have to go through a, a legislative process when you know full well those in Silicon Valley or extraordinary close. Regulations do not have to be approved by congress. The president can implement them just by signing a piece of paper. Lou again, and worried about a mindset that suggests we need a regulation in place rather than a president ial order or action because that starts to smell of the swamp. And i have to tell you, when it comes to National Security, this president has been supported in every Supreme Court test at this point to having the authority for National Security and he should be taking every urgent action necessary to prevent the betrayal of the United States by any company, any person and certainly, a powerful Technology Company of the likes of which there may not be which is google. Maybe the president consented president ial order next week. Lou how about give in order . The note in the government take orders without seeing it in print . I mean for crying out loud. What happened to action . I hear you. Lou lets turn to north korea. North korea firing off these missiles. The president is dismissive and you know, so for the short range missiles, they look like firew
