Angle. Today, Vice President harris traveled to texas to check the border box and play a game of makebelieve. It is important to be clear, working to build a fair and functional we feel very strongly about that and i do know we inherited a tough situation and in five months we have made progress but there is still much more work to be done but weve made progress. Laura progress . Lies and more lies. Number one, she and biden were not handed a tough situation at the border. They created a disaster at the border, they did. Thanks to trumps remain in mexico policy and aggressive interior enforcement, illegal immigration crossings were driven way down under trump and number two, by progress she means total abdication because most americans define progress at the border as a reduction in the number of illegal crossers. But for biden and harris, i guess progress means an increase in crossing regardless of the harm and cost to the american people. I like to call this Open Borders Collusion at the highest levels of our government. The Biden Administration is committing an ongoing crime against our basic sovereignty, a conspiracy to undermine the rule of law and their refusal to do what works to stem the flow of humanity and to america. This fiscal year alone, Border Patrol has intercepted nearly a million Migrant Crossers at our southern border. We dont even know how many of them have been released into the interior part of the country, but you know that number has to be staggering. If harris were a serious person who actually put americas interests first she would have traveled where the action is in the Rio Grande Valley but of course, that would have been too embarrassing and revealing because they are, the Border Arrests stand at a whopping 271,000 and counting this fiscal year so of course Kamala Harris decided to skip that region and instead, visit el paso, which has 2. 5 times fewer Border Arrests and for good measure, a democrat mayor. Everything i saw today was Border Theater from beginning to end. There is nothing serious about enforcement and she was always in search of mythic root causes. The work that we have to do is the work of addressing the cause, the root causes. Im very excited about the potential that we have talked to these leaders and secretaries, the focus that we have placed on the root causes. He cant react to a problem without solving it at its root. Laura everyone knows that root causes is just washingtons way of saying we have no intention of solving the problem. And despite the gravity of all of this, here is was only for about six hours in texas and much of that time was spent at the Illegal Crossing Hot Spot known as the El Paso International airport. Of course, the veep spun a totally fictional version of events today. Why was right now a great time to make your first trip to the border . Its not my first trip, ive been to the border many times. I said in march i was going to come to the board as this is not a new plan. Laura if her werent so infuriating it would be absolutely hilarious because with so much time having passed, the Vice President s border is kind of a sideshow at this point. Its a distraction from the real story because while she embarrasses herself in el paso, the biden dhs is moving full steam ahead on dismantling our Border Protections and immigration systems. Just days ago, they notified congress that they were going to release Tens Of Thousands of illegals into the interior of the country who were previously denied entry under the remain in mexico programs. They are going to pluck them out of mexico, bring them back and release them. Isnt that nice . Thats not all, just today by the steam is furiously trying to figure out how to rescind a trump era policy that allows for the immediate rejection of illegal Border Crossers due to covid because they care so much about covid. This outrage aligns perfectly with something harris said today about what our obligations are as a country. We have a responsibility and if we ignore that responsibility it will visit itself upon us in a very domestic way. Laura she was talking about the region, Central America and mexico, so apparently our responsibility is to other countries. Thus it not only will the middle class and all americans frankly be hit with a higher cost of living because of inflation now but you can also expect wages to stagnate as well, all because biden bowed to the business body on the far left and they are fine with having a glut of workers because a glut of workers in the United States keeps a wages flat. Certainly keeps them from rising. So once again we see the ugly truth about todays democrats. Although Kamala Harris was put in charge of the border issue, she not only cant do it because she is in way over her head, she wont do it because shutting down illegal Border Crossers means putting America First and why should they ever want to put a systematically racist Country First . That doesnt make any sense. They dont think its their responsibility to try to lift your standard of living or ensure your schools are functional or to make sure your streets are safe because if they did, they would do whatever it took to secure that southern border and instead their goal is to fundamentally transform our nation and its cultures so those borders, you bet, keep them wide open. They are only going to care about the border, about enforcement, when they see that their actions are in this case, an action, its really costing votes. And very soon it will be time to make them pay. And thats the angle. Here now, texas Lieutenant Governor dan patrick and richard guerra, a rancher from del rio, texas, where we were a few years back. Let me start with you, harris spent the majority of her time at the airport, didnt even travel to the border. Your response to todays Border Theater . And it was Border Theater. I realized that the secretary of Homeland Security has changed his title and didnt tell us, the secretary of root causes because that is all theyve talked about today and the true root cause of the nearly 1 Million People weve apprehended so far in the millions more that have crossed over that we havent caught, the root cause of the border problem is joe biden and Kamala Harris because trump had the border really under control in the last year of his presidency. The policies he put in place, like returning people to mexico, really work and they talk about a broken system today, they broke it. They broke it and its purposefully that they broke it. To hear her talk about we have to be concerned about the children and the families and they are suffering, how about American Families and American Children and the suffering here by any one killed by someone here illegally. This was disgraceful, it was almost a joke except that it is so serious. Laura it was an insult. We are not new york, were not washington, d. C. , we are not wearing masks. Laura mask theater. It is ridiculous, it is absurd, the biggest pile of political b. S. I have ever seen. It was just a joke and its sad that they dont understand laura what about a sense of humanity for americans who own property along the border like you . Im a rancher, im a cattleman. They are doing a lot of damages. They tear off our fences, they bring favor to ask, and they contaminate our property what they do is they trespass. Trespassing, you know, it is illegal in the state of texas and in fact, the United States of america. So it is a problem and i dont care whether they want to sugarcoat it or not. It is a problem and i agree that the root cause of all of this is that the white house, not here, they need to come to the Rio Grande Valley. In fact, i invite them to come to our ranch. Laura dan, i dont think actually after watching the spectacle today, biden could live at the border for six months and set up an entire border white house. That wouldnt matter one bit. You dont think they know whats going on at your ranch . You dont think they know whats going on with all these kids dying in the desert, prostitution, drugs, the question is why are they doing it . Because they want to turn these young people who are coming across the border in these old people coming across the board into citizens, into voters. That is what this is all about over the next several years are the next decade. Laura democrat voters. They want to take over the country on the backs of these people crossing the border to turn them into democrat voters. Its about power. They dont care about children in america, families in america, police officers, victims of crime in america, those taking fennel and dying from it, they dont care about americans and they dont care about the people crossing the border who end up in or Massage Parlors or a Sex Trafficking if they are working at a job, sending a third of their cash back to the cartel. They are thinking the Bidenharris Administration are good for business because the cartels are in the business of smuggling people into america. This is disgraceful and why we have to build the wall in texas, we are serious about this because today proves they have no intention whatsoever to do anything about security for this country and for our stay and we are not going to put up with. I commend the Lieutenant Governor for taking the initiative to do something about this. Laura they care about this country like the people running the country who think it is a systemically racist and rotten and evil country. Thank you, both of you, tonight. There was a jarring comment from Congresswoman Escobar on greeting Kamala Harris at the el paso airport today. Welcome to my community committed the new ellis island, i have a heart full of gratitude because we finally have an administration willing to tackle the big challenges, willing to tackle challenges in a meaningful, thoughtful, strategic, compassionate way and understanding what is driving people from their homes, whats making them arrive at our nations front door. Laura joining me now, victor david hanson, the ellis island of 2021. Tee off on that for a moment. Every element of that comparison is pathetic, laura. Ellis island, everybody came legally. 1890 to 1924, it was illegal and they came, they were all audited. People coming across the rio grande, especially at el paso and the state of texas are coming for the most part illegally. We dont have any idea in the middle of a pandemic whether they have been vaccinated, probably not, or whether they are active carriers. 5,000 custom officers have been infected. They were diverse at ellis island. They came from all over the world. This is one group of Spanish Speaking people. Its not diverse like ellis island. And they came with the expectation to assimilate rapidly, to integrate, intermarry. That is not the message we are giving these immigrants are coming illegally. We are telling them they are part of a tribal identity, it is whats happening in america and people forget about ellis island. It was measured. I know some days, they may have had five or 6,000 but over the 36 year period there was about 12 Million People who arrived here. We are getting up to 2 million so we are getting six to seven times more per year across the southern border than we did through ellis island. Every element of that comparison is just factually wrong and its kind of insulting to the people who follow the rules. Grandparents or greatgrandparents or parents that did that. Its really sickening. Laura my grandparents on my moms side came through ellis island and i remember hearing some of those distant stories. It took my breath away, that comparison. I want to play Something Else that harris said at the border. I strongly believe that once people dont want to leave home and when they do, it is because either they are fleeing from harm or because to stay means that they cannot provide the basic necessities for their family. Laura that doesnt qualify them for status in the United States, she doesnt even know the law and she is supposedly this great lawyer. That is not persecution under one of the great causes listed under the asylum statute. Thats also alive. We have loopholes taken frequently and in mexico alone, 50 of the mexican population says given the opportunity they would move to the United States immediately. Half the country, 55 Million People would come. If you open the borders, all of Central America and mexico would come because for all the criticism of america, we are a constitutional state with individual liberty and what kind of allow people to be prosperous, secure and happy in a way that is impossible in their homeland, so they would all come and yet that is the big disconnect. The left says this is a terrible country and yet they cant explain why everybody wants to come to a racist country, because they dont even believe their own rhetoric, they are so cynical. Laura thanks, great to see you. You may have come a shocking story of how the fbis sweeping January 6th Investigation is wrongfully turning up a number of people including a man who spent his life serving others. Joining us and moments to tell us how the fbi ruined his life and his health, next. Hi, im debra. Im from colorado. Ive been married to my High School Sweetheart for 35 years. Im a mother of four always busy. I was starting to feel a little foggy. Just didnt feel like things were as sharp as i knew they once were. I heard about prevagen and then i started taking it about two years now. Started noticing things a little sharper, a little clearer. I feel like its kept me on my game. Im able to remember things. Id say give it a try. Prevagen. Healthier brain. Better life. Laura two decades ago after terrorists brought down the twin towers, justice rose to the occasion. He served as a red cross volunteer after 9 11 but his incredible Public Service doesnt end there. Joseph spent decades hitting his Upper West SideBlock Association come he looked out for neighbors during the pandemic, supplied them with ppe. On top of that he was awarded a Police Commendation for saving the woman from being mugged. You get the point. He was a pillar and a beloved leader of his own community. But all of that changed after he attended trumps January 6th Rally in d. C. Though joseph never attended the capitol that day, never entered a capital he was in his hotel when the breach occurred. The fbi raided his home anyway in february. Agents handcuffed him, detained him for four hours as they ransacked his apartment and confiscated his belongings, which he still has not gotten back. That is not all. Josephs neighbors now see him as a domestic terrorist to be shunned. It has not only ruined his life but his health as well. Joseph joins me now. Joseph, you say you have experienced not one but two strokes . Since the fbi raided your home. What . Yes, february 1st, 1. And they call them mild but i dont think it was that mild because i had a second one may 25th. Laura joseph, the facts of this story are something out of the soviet union, okay . I came back to new york the next day and i received a Voice Message that we can. Actually on the tenth from an fbi agent with the 202 area code and i called them on monday, got his voice mail and never heard back from him. About february 4th, i was taking my mother, my mother is presently in a rehab. Shes got dementia, shes 94 years old. At 6 00, the door, someone was banging at the door and answered and three males, one female claiming to be detectives, i let the men and basically they asked me if i was part of blm, proud boys, antifa. I said not at all. I was there but i wasnt there when the breach happened and i dont condone any criminality or violence. I showed them a video which was a composite of three videos. They said can you make us a copy . I said, sure. And youre innocent, you cooperate, which was my biggest mistake. Yeah. So i made them a thumb drive and they said thank you very much, i hope your mother feels better and they left. That thursday i was sleeping on the couch and 6 00 in the morning i hear a boom, boom, boom, fbi, opened the door or we will knock it down or something to that effect. One was pointing an Assault Rifle at my head about 4 feet away and i was sitting there confused and they said please step outside. I stepped outside, they handcuffed me. I said, what is this about . They said search warrant. They never produced one, never showed it, nothing. They said, get him his coat, get his in jeans and boots and they took me downstairs laura okay, then what happened . In the car they had me for almost four hours and they were asking me questions. It seems like such a short time laura did you ask to speak to a lawyer . No, be
