Transcripts For FOXNEWSW Outnumbered Overtime With Harris Fa

That is a record. Look at your screen. Wow. The white house says it is within mexicos power to do more. Here his press secretary sarah sanders. Not only have we thought this through, weve been talking about it since the president not just on the campaign, but since he took office. Mexico has the ability to step up and do more. The president has been asking them for months to do that and now he is putting some measures in place that hopefully will get them to engage more so that they will start to help us in this process. We cant continue down the path that we are on. Harris White House Correspondent kevin corke from the north lawn right now. Did you see that video . Wow. People crossing. Pretty incredible, harris. About a thousand people in that one instance. Its clear that mexico is worried about this possible tariff circumstance. They are sending trade representative to washington. Heres how bad things can get if the Mexican Government doesnt do more. 5 tariffs on mexican goods as of june 10th, all the way up to 25 on october the first. The president accusing mexico of passively cooperating with this mass incursion into our country. He says its an extraordinary threat to our National Security and our economy. I want to share part of the statement that he issued yesterday, he said, the u. S. Has been invaded by hundreds of thousands of people coming through mexico and entering our country illegally. The sustained influx of illegal aliens has profound consequences on every aspect of our national life, overwhelming our schools, overcrowding or hospitals, draining our welfare system, and causing untold amounts of crime. As for mexico, well, keep this in mind, too. The mindset there is that if people are not staying in mexico, maybe its not such a big problem. But from the u. S. Perspective, they are coming here trying to claim asylum when many are just trying to get a better economic life. One way or another, the president says it has stopped. Theres also this element to it. Check it with the president tweeted. 90 of the drugs coming into the u. S. Come through mexico throughout southern border. 80,000 people died last year, Million People ruined. This has gone on for many years and nothing has been done about it. We have a 100 billion trade deficit with mexico. Its time. So they president has also issued a statement. This is really interesting. Hes almost challenging the National Sovereignty of the u. S. Check out part of his statement. He said, the statue of liberty is not an empty symbol. Even though we have a sovereign right to say it, the slogan of America First is a fallacy. Even until the end of time, justice and universal fraternity will prevail above national borders. Wow. We will see what the white house has to say about that as we continue to hear from newsmakers here. For now, harris, back to you. Harris i wonder if he says that people in his southern border. Thats a very good question. If you know anything about mexico you know they have a very, very strict immigration policy. Harris i do know that. Again, they should know, if they had won the u. S. Would probably like to match it. Harris good to see you, kevin corke. Have a good weekend. Democratic congas monroe, now joining me. He says in the Armed Services Committee Good to see you. Thank you for being on the program. I want to start where democrats get some criticism. I will give your first opportunity. What is the democrats fixer was happening on the southern border . With the idea . What we would do is have incountry processing so people are being processed in honduras and guatemala, and we would continue the u. S. Aid that is working, according to the vanderbilt study, showing that that aid is reducing Gang Violence. But we wouldnt do is have bad economic policy. A policy that will lead to stagnation, higher prices for americans who, and less jobs as american manufacturers are intertwined with mexico. Harris its my job to be evenhanded, fair, balanced, and not to panic people. The markets are not crashing. Its up about 300 points. Its up and down, up and down pay thats why they caught the market. We see this for a month straight. You and i can rehash what we call it. But i just want to put that in there. To fix this, it becomes political. This is what confuses me, congressman, National Security is an issue. Its not a political issue, its just a fact. National security is at play here. What are the politics blocking something getting done on o . I dont know. The solution is very simple. Actually, the Obama Administration had recommended that we process people before they come to the border, process them and guatemala, process them in honduras, process them in el salvador. On the Trump Administration reversed that policy. We also have called for more asylum judges to go down to the border. Thats the issue, that we havent been processing these people fast enough. I think there are some very commonsense programs we can agree on. Everyone believes that we need to protect our borders. The question is how you do it, and we have bipartisan proposals that could work. Harris i tell you, it certainly seems like we are running out of time as he faced the onslaught that we see every summer during the warmer months. We could take up to 1. 2 Million People that would process and do with people coming over illegally or waiting for a seven processing. Its getting worse. The republican chairman of the Senate Homeland security committee, ron johnson, says he understands why the president has been raising the stakes of mexico. Watch and i will get your reaction. I could fully understand President Trumps frustration about, first of all, mexicos lack of cooperation. And congress failure to act. If youre coming from Central America and you are claiming asylum, you should be claiming that in the first aid country. Thats mexico. They conclude he rejected that. Hopefully this move by President Trump will bring them to their senses and they will cooperate with us. Harris your reaction . He shouldnt make dead economic policy. Chuck grassley has said what the president is doing is wrong, that you shouldnt use trade policy to get an immigration policy. What he ought to do his work with congress on immigration to make sure that we are strengthening our Border Security to make sure we are processing people before they get here. But he is hurting our economy by these trade tariffs, and he is not coming to congress for authorization to do it. Would we draw the line customer can do so he can have tariffs unilaterally whenever he wants to do them or for any policy . I dont think that was their intention with the constitution calls for. Harris what about us democrats . Do you come up with idea that deals with the couple thinks it will take pressure off the border situation . First of all, we can acknowledge that mexico has started accepting some asylumseekers and keeping them in the country while they wait. We can wipe away the illegality of crossing the border, if you have to. Its a crime to do that if you are here illegally. Can you talk about that . Some democrats want to get rid of ice, which is in charge of not just going up and gathering people who are here illegally, but making sure that those people who are committing further crimes are accounted for. Sanctuary cities. Can i talk about that . Can we talk about the magnet that it puts on the situation at our border . Democrats have some issues that they can come to the table with, with ideas. We have. What i have said, nobody is talking the majority of the caucuses and talking about getting rid of ice. You are saying that it should be focused on Drug Trafficking and on child trafficking, not on separating children from their parents on the border. Harris so what do you say to the members of your party that would like to get rid of such an agency . Thats not the speaker position with the majority of the caucus. We can always talk about some people who have abused that are different from the majority of the caucus. Its a diverse district. The majority of the Democratic Caucus believes in Border Security, believes in treating people humanely with their rights, and believes that we have to have common sense policy that will reduce the violence. The biggest policy that was working was we were giving these grants. Vanderbilt did a study to places like guatemala and honduras, to incentivize them to reduce Gang Violence and to help them have some Economic Development. Why would we want to take those grants away . Thats what this administration is doing. If you dont want people coming here, then process them before they come here and help with the Economic Development and violence harris you would be okay with spending money that portable situation, putting those judges there . Thats part of the answer. What about a wall . Real quickly. I oppose the wall. I dont think it makes any sense. Harris but in some areas its working. And we know that it is. California, you think they want to tear down . We dont need to expand the wall. Its just common sense. I live in my home. Obviously i have protection paid by dont have a moat around my home. An alarm system harris deliver the border . We have technology that can do a lot now in monitoring the border. With the democrats are for is smart Border Security that also values human rights. My view is weve got to solve this. There are some common sense things. Lets not wreck our economy. Our competition is china. That is the rival. President reagan understood that we needed a relationship harris wait a minute, china is not trying to come across our border illegally. After that you go. Congressman ro khanna, please come back on a different day. Thank you very much. Fox news alert now on this. Attorney general bill barr speaking out publicly for the First Time Since robert mealeys News Conference. Barr taking issue with a former special Counsel Legal analysis. Specifically, muellers decision not to make a call on the issue of whether President Trump obstructed justice. He could have reached a conclusion, the opinions, as you can indict a person that while hes in office. He could have reached a discussion decision as to whether it was criminal activity. He had his reasons for not doing it, which he explained. He did make a decision. The Deputy Attorney general Rod Rosenstein and i felt it was necessary for us as the heads of the department to reach the decision. Harris democrats are ramping up their efforts to get mueller to testify with some also calling on House Speaker nancy pelosi to begin impeachment proceedings against trump, and around and around we go. Mark merediths live in washington with the latest on this. Market . Hey there, harris. Bill barr sat down for the interview just showed the day after special Counsel Robert Mueller resigned from the justice department. Barr told cbs, like you displayed, that he believed mueller could have concluded one way or another if the president committed a crime by obstructing justice. Heres another clip. I personally felt he could have reached a decision. He seemed to suggest yesterday there was another venue for this, and that was congress. Im not sure what he was suggesting, but the deprived of justice doesnt use our power of investigating crimes as an adjunct to congress. Barr was also asked about the Ongoing Investigation into how the russia probe began, and if obamaera justice officials acted properly when wanting that investigation. You dont think they committed treason . Not in a legal matter. But you have concerns about how they conducted the investigation . Yes, but. You know, sometimes people can convince themselves that what they are doing is in the higher interest, the better good. They dont realize that what they are doing is really antithetical to the democratic system we have. This is all happening as more and more Congressional Democrats are demanding that the house begin impeachment proceedings against the president. House speaker nancy pelosi, she was on the latenight talk show last night where she said impeachment remains a possibility at that houseled investigations remain ongoing. The only person who knows better than i why this president is not above the law, why this president must be held accountable the only person who knows better than i do is the president of the United States. He knows. He knows what his violations have been. Policy went on to say that if democrats proceed with impeachment, harris, the case would need to be ironclad. Harris . Harris the report wasnt even substantially ironclad in terms of what barr is saying. One way or another on obstruction. Mark meredith, thank you very much. Republican congressman andy biggs of the house judiciary committee. Great to see you. Lets pick it up right there. Attorney general barr says he should have come down one way or the other on obstruction. Not ironclad. The way i interpreted what mueller did is he effectively came down and said we dont have a charge to file. We have no basis to say there was a crime committed. Yet, he clouded up by the way they wrote the report. The statement that he made. But when mr. Barr said he coud reach another conclusion from his right preeti could have said in his report, we think a crime was committed but we dont think we can indict. Thats our policy not to indict. He didnt say that. Thats the problem with the Mueller Report in so many ways, that they implied things and they went certain ways where it they probably should have just kept their mouth shut, like we would normally in a criminal investigation. If we dont have a crime, we say, oh, there is no crime committed here. Harris congressman, why are democrats feasting off of merely stash it was a really News Conference, it was a statement in front of news reporters. What is in there that has meat on the bones . I think it was on the circumference. It shouldve been the shortest new conference in history, because he said he didnt have anything to add from the written report. Harris he said it was over. He shouldnt have said at that point, thanks for coming, i have nothing else to say. But he went on and said things like, we didnt find he was exonerated. So what that did he is an experienced hand, harris. He knows what washington politics are like. Hes been in it for 30 years. Basically, he knew that he was feeding some not information, but this notion that there is something there because we didnt exonerate the president. Thats what theyre feasting on. It was reckless on his part. Harris you are on the hill, seeing house numbers, leadership on both sides avail. I imagine people have to be talking about this. Did Speaker Pelosi enter a lane that i dont know . Shes calling for interventions. Now shes doing some mind reading of the president. Take a look at what she says about impeachment and President Trump. I think the president wants us to impeach him. You think he wants us to impeach him . He knows its not a good idea to be impeached, but the Silver Lining for him is then he believes that he would be exonerated by the United States senate. Harris thats a lot. What is she talking about . Well, i think she is trying to walk us in line here. But it doesnt make sense to me. Does she really think donald trump sits around with melania and says, hey, honey, i hope they would impeach me. That would be great for history and my chances for reelection. She is claiming that if he is impeached he thinks hes going to get reelected. The reality is if the election were held today he would be reelected. Harris regardless of anything. History points to that. Its hard to kick out an incumbent manure economies cooking cooking. Exactly right. She is trying to placate her base, both within the congress itself and also in the general public. And she is trying to walk this thin line. I just think that was kind of again , any responsible statement on the part of Speaker Pelosi. Harris men mueller was holding his very short News Conference every day, my first reaction is that the job of Nancy Pelosis just got a lot tougher within her own party. I agree, i felt the same thing. I thought, how will she dam up the flood of desire to impeach this president . And i dont think shes going to be able to. I think this is going to quite frankly, itll lock it down. Ive seen some of my friends who are more moderate on this issue have now come out and said, no, lean to impeach the president. Harris she is right when you look at history. It helped bill clinton. He became more popular after impeachment because it doesnt mean you get removed. You have two still try to get stuff done while they impeach you. It could action of the president come shes right. His meeting wants it. Last record . It makes a martyr out of the sitting president. Dont forget, under clinton, the Mainstream Media was all a part of him. That is kind of an ameliorating factor. Things are little bit different in that regard. So itll help the president anyway grade harris grade to see you. Thank you very much, congressman. A new report now coming in from overseas that was korea executed special Nuclear Envoy t
