Transcripts For FOXNEWSW Outnumbered Overtime With Harris Fa

Migrants in our custody. As of this morning, that number was 13,400. A high number for us is 4,000. A crisis level is 6,000. On monday, we saw the highest totals of apprehensions and encounters in over a decade with 4,000 migrants either apprehended or encountered at ports of entry in a single day. Yesterday we broke the record again with 4117. Harris on this fox news alert, william la jeunesse is following the story from a west coast bureau. William . Harris, basically the commissioners raising the white flag thing is agency is overrun and overwhelmed. 40 of Border Patrol agents are not patrolling the border, he said, but processing trade babysitting. Playing taxi for migrants who need hospital care or rides to the bus station. The u. S. Doesnt have an open border, but right now Officials Say in effect we do. Of those 4100 migrants at brand yesterday, 60 families, 40 children, many are sick needing quarantine. 60 a day or going to the hospital. So you have this perfect storm of factors come harris. Most democrats in congress are in denial, calling this a manufactured crisis. There is no deterrent, no consequence, no jail, no fine, no deportation. Theres also an unlimited supply of Central Americans making money here. So today the cvp commissioner begged congress for help. Legislative relief, changes in the law, closing the vulnerabilities in our Legal Framework is the only way this flow will be reduced and we will be able to restore integrity to our immigration system. Monday near phoenix agents dropped 800 migrants on the side of the road, forced by court order, it says 20 days in custody or eight hours on the bus they have to be. So this is not a surprise. Take a look at this graph. A little after President Trump took office, at branches of steadily increased. Expecting, again, more than 100,000 this month. Lets put that in perspective. Its like feeling the Michigan Football stadium every month. Lets multiply that by 12. Over a year, thats a million apprehensions. Larger than the population of san francisco. Most arrive destitute, their children will attend school, get free reduced price breakfast and lunch, and many states qualify for subsidies. Lawyers, health care, child care food stamps, housing, and cash. Still many in Congress Oppose fixing the system. Right now you mention those 12,000 in custody. They are designed to hold three or 4,000 at the Border Patrol station. 50,000 in ice custody. The majority being released, replaced by somebody else. Its a Conveyor Belt come harris. Most people, even he just said, was he a judge from three to five years. Many, never at all. Harris william la jeunesse, thank you very much. This was forecast and part of us from the experts the presents that he had talked with. Its a good time now to bring in white house Senior Advisor for strategic medications, mercedes schlapp. Good to see you. I want to start with what even more of the Mainstream Media is now calling a crisis of the border. But this situation is devolving very quickly. Thats right, harris. I think what we are seeing is the fact that, because the democrats have spent so much time in denial, basically pushing forward and open border agenda, unwilling to work with the administration to close these legal loopholes, in order to determine many of these illegal aliens from coming into the country, you are seeing this chaos that we are seeing at the southern border. We need our Border Patrol agents to have the support, the funding, the changes in law and immigration law, in order to gain operational control of the southern border. And also ensure that we are able to strengthen our Legal Immigration system as opposed to continually allowing this flow of illegal aliens and smugglers and human traffickers who are taking advantage of our broken immigration laws. Harris mercedes, what we are seeing i do know you talk with numbers on them as well, and of course the staff there at the white house. Is there political room now for democrats and republicans to come together on what clearly is a manifestation of many crises of the border . The president declaring an emergency, the house could not wipe away his veto. Politics aside, could you come together and do some of the things you talked about . I wish we could put the politics aside, because President Trump has lead on this issue. He has addressed not only the humanitarian crisis in the border where we have seen sexual violence, Sexual Assault against these vulnerable women, children being smuggled, but also the National Security crisis, which is who is coming into our country . Of course, we see of the drug cartels play a role in making sure that drugs are being smuggled in and landing in our communities. Let me tell you, and not only overwhelms our Border Patrol agents who are spending more time processing illegal aliens instead of being able to monitor the border, but also local sheriffs who are having to deal with the ms13 gang members. Having to deal with the incoming flow of drugs into our communities. That is incredibly problematic. The problem is the democrats continue to play politics. We saw yesterday, the house members the democrats basically attempting to override the veto on the National Emergency. They continue to push the fact that they believe this is a manufactured crisis and the president agrees and believes that this is a National Emergency and will continue to focus on funding for border to build the border wall, as well as to ensure that our Border Patrol agents have the funding may need to be able to do their job. Harris all right, i want to move on to this now. It was seen as a major reversal as it was rolling up. Breaking news, the Trump Administration now backing a federal court ruling essentially striking down the entire Affordable Care act. President trump waited on this moments ago, we carried out live here on outnumbered. We will be the party of great health care, and the democrats have let you down. They have really let you down. Obamacare doesnt work, its too expensive, you take a look at everything with deductibles its a disaster. If the Supreme Court rules that obamacare is out, we will have a plan that is far better than obamacare. Harris mercedes, this is come to my attention. The minority leader Kevin Mccarthy has said that he had a phone conversation with the president telling him this made no sense to focus on the aca right now. Especially after democrats were able to best republicans in the midterms. Over the issue of preexisting conditions. What do you say about that . Is there some disagreement within even the Republican Party that maybe this shouldnt be the focus right now . The president is going to do the right thing. The Justice Department came up with a conclusion that, in essence, if you call the Affordable Care act unconstitutional this goes through the legal process. In the meantime we have a reality that even the democrats agree with. That obamacare is broken. We have seen an increase in premiums. We have seen the doubling of deductibles. This is putting a huge burden on our families. Our goal is to ensure that we focus on affordability, accessibility, and flexibility for American Families and for american individuals. With that being said, the democrats are moving toward socialized medicine. They want the medicare for all. The onesizefitsall. Let me tell you but that would produce it will produce greater weight times, less care, and in essence it will cost more. We have to ask ourselves the question weve got to make sure we are focused on who we are taking care of here. That is the american patient, and that what the president is focus on. Harris what i said before was reporting by axios, and democrats with nancy pelosi leading the way yesterday afternoon rolled out a plan that actually didnt have medicare for all. I wonder how that is sitting with some of the 2020 democratic democratic president s or candidates. We will have to see. Here is senator collins on the topic. I am very disappointed and vehemently opposed to the administration seeking to invalidate the entire Affordable Care act. Clearly there are provisions of the law that do need to be fixe fixed. The answer is for the administration to work with congress and present a plan to replace and fix the law. Harris republican senator collins there. Is there room for the president to say, yes, you can fix aca, or is all or nothing . I think its a matter of having these conversations. The president has made it clear he wants to work on this issue, with congress. Whats your member, it was not so long ago that there was a vote on graham cassidy. Senator collins did not vote for it. And did not support it. That would have significantly changed and basically done away with obamacare. So we have this reality at hand we have had a system that is broken. Which is obamacare, which has led to the increase in premiums. It has led to these deductibles. We want to provide more choices for american patients. And, the president was the leader in ensuring that we are there to protect preexisting conditions. Its in his budget, he is committed to that, and he will make sure that all patients are protected. Harris thats a big issue, im glad you had that one last. Lets move on. The senior doj officials as attorney general barr plans to release a version of the Mueller Report to congress and the public in weeks, not months. We are also learning former trim Campaign Advisor George Papadopoulos has formally asked President Trump for a pardon. He pleaded guilty, just to remind everybody commit to making false statements in the mueller investigation. I want to get the white house wrecked into this. As the president has said, he has been thinking about these pardons. When it comes to the report itself, thats obviously for attorney general barr to decide when the report will be sent over to congress. The president has made it very clear, we want as much information released as possible, keeping in mind it has to be consistent with the law. Keeping in mind that we have to ensure we protect classified and sensitive information. Harris mercedes schlapp, obviously outside the white house there. A Beautiful Day in d. C. Good to see you, thank you. Fox news alert, we are just getting word Chicago Police have released pages of redacted investigative reports in the Jussie Smollett case. This comes one day after charges against the empire actor were dropped. Matt finn with the breaking news in chicago. Not . Harris, it appears that Chicago Police wanted to very quickly release what it could in its Jussie Smollett case. The Chicago Police to parent has released some redacted documents related to its investigation into Jussie Smollett. Moments ago, the Chicago Police department told me this case is now sealed, so releasing anything else in the future might be difficult or impossible. For now, Chicago Police apparently got out what it could to the media via previous requests. Today, chicagos mayor, rahm emanuel, once again called the Jussie Smollett a liar. Chicagos Police Superintendent says the actor owes the city an apology. Here is chicagos top cop. Ive heard they wanted their day in court with tv cameras so america could know the truth. Even though they chose to hide behind secrecy and broker a deal to circumvent the judicial system. Chicago Police Spokesperson Anthony Google the treated this out after the case was suddenly dropped. Chicago Police Detectives didnt excellent investigation in their work was reaffirmed by an independent grand jury who brought 16 criminal counts. In our experience, innocent individuals dont forget bond and perform Community Service in exchange for dropped charges. The state attorney here, ken fox, suddenly recuse yourself from this investigation during the height of it. It was later revealed she texted with Michelle Obamas former chief of staff, teen ten. She persuaded the state attorney, kim foxx, to persuade superintendent Eddie Johnson attorneys case over to the fbi because the smollett family was worried about leaks. He did not turn his case over to the fbi. Harris matt finn with the latest on that. We will come back to you as the news warrants. If anything else pops on this case, the smollett case in chicago. Thank you. Today i am forming a special committee on climate. On the climate crisis. We are not going to wait for our republican friends. Because this issue was so urgent, we have to focus on it, highlight it now. This is such a crisis, we are looking for any way we can move it forward. Even though we are in the minority at certain points in the process, we have leverage and we are going to use it for climate. Harris thats Senate Majority leader Chuck Schumer announcing a committee on quite a change. One day after the Green New Deal failed to pass its first vote in the senate. That nonbinding resolution. All 53 republicans and democrats as well, at least three, voted against it. The rest of the democrats voted present in protest. They accused senator Mitch Mcconnell of using the procedural vote as a political stunt, but the majority leader said he just wanted everyone on the record. Ahead of 2020. One New York County has declared a state of emergency after a severe Measles Outbreak. Starting today, all unvaccinated children will be banned from Public Places for 30 days in that county. Bryan llenas is live in west nyack new york. Brian . Harris, good afternoon. This is the first ban of its kind in the United States. The Rockland County executive says they are taking this extreme measure because too many parents have not gotten their kids vaccinated against measles. He also said that state Health Inspectors are encountering more and more resistance from parents as inspectors try to locate those infected. Vaccinate them and minimize their exposure to the community. My Health Inspectors have been hung up upon or told not to call again. They have been told we are not discussing this, do not come back. When visiting the homes of affected individuals as part of their investigations. This type of response is unacceptable and, frankly, irresponsible. It engages the health and wellbeing of others. Rockland county new york, located an hour north of new york city, has not being able to stop the spread measles since the outbreak began in october. They say the outbreak began in ultraorthodox jewish communities where antivaccination literature has spread. Under the public band, all of those under the age of 18 who are unvaccinated against the measles are barred from public spaces like shopping malls, restaurants, schools, public transportation, and places of worship. Parks and playgrounds are excluded. The state of emergency is in effect until april 25th. They are trying to stop the outbreak before passover and easter gatherings begin. There are a total of 153 confirmed cases in Rockland County. 128 of those infected are 18 or younger, and the measles is highly contagious. Most to have it art not vaccinated. In this county, 20 of the children do not have the vaccination against the measles. There are over 300 measles cases nationwide right now, with outbreaks of the disease in six states. New york, washington, texas, illinois, michigan, and california. Harris, the county says parents who do not follow this ban could face a misdemeanor and up to six months in jail. How they plan on enforcing that is a question. They do say they will not be asking people for their vaccination papers. They just want people to get the kids vaccinated. Harris thats really interesting. It deserves a closer look. Im glad you brought that up. The enforcement, and also some are crying that this may not be constitutional. I will get into all of it. Brian, thank you very much. When i come back to the severe Measles Outbreak with my guest coming up later this hour, ed davis will join me at the bottom of the hour. Watch for that. I have a lot of questions about it. Plus, democratic reaction to the crisis at the southern border. Congressman John Garamendi weighs in. Remember, we just heard from the white house. What you democrats say about it . Stay close. ding hey, who are you . Oh, hey jeff
