criticize him? we'll take a look at that. >> bill: caution, you are about to enter the "no spin zone." "the factor" begins right now. ♪ >> bill: hi, i amll bill o'reilly. thanks for watching tonight. big crackdown on illegal immigration. that is the subject of this evening's "talking points" memoa fulfilling a campaign promise, president trump has ordered the immediate construction of a wall on the southern border. and not only that... >> our order also does the following. ends the policy of catch and release at the border. requires other countries to take back their criminals. they will take them back. cracks down on sanctuary cities. empowers i.c.e. officers to target and remove those who pose a threat to public safety. >> bill: mr. trump signing two executive orders earlier today which send a signal, a strong signal, that illegal immigration is going to be dealt with in a very aggressive way. to explain further, catch and release is a policy reinstituted by president obama wherere those sneaking across the southern border could ask for asylum and almost immediately be set free. sometimes handed a bus ticket that you and i paid for to an address anywhere in the usa. few of those released have ever returned for their court hearings.er that policy was a scandal. now, it is finished. secondly, the sanctuary cities, as you know, have openly defied federal law for decades. now, federal funds may be denied to those places. so on day three of president trump's first week in office, he sent shock waves through the liberal communities. also, mr. trump is calling for a federal investigation into voter fraud, where he alleges that millions of illegal aliens arera voting. that's a good thing, the investigation. we should know if fraud on election day is real or not. also, the president has informed the city of chicago that if the murder epidemic there doesn't stop, federal authorities will intervene. another good thing. and that intrusion is likely to happen as illinois governor bruce rauner and chicago mayor rahm emanuel will not stop the brutal gang killings. they just won't do it. which have taken thousands of innocent lives. how that situation has been allowed to go on for years is another scandal and perhaps the most vivid illustration of racism "talking points" has ever seen. so, president trump is acting quickly and according to a rasmus daly presidential tracking poll, americans are taking notice. today, the poll has 57% of likely u.s. voters approving of donald trump's job opponents, 43% disapproval. it remains to be seen, however, whether a border wall will be effective, whether stationary cities will finally obey the law, and whether ending the catch and release program will slow down illegal border crossings. but at this point, strong federal action is being taken. no question about it. that is "the memo." now for the top story tonight. is it kate's law next?in as you may know, "the factor" was instrumental in proposing a law that would impose tough, mandatory, federal criminals who defy deportation. "kate's law" was sabotaged by the villain senator harry reid but will now be introduced. joining us from philadelphia, congressman steve king, who is promoting the law in the house. senator ted cruz doing the same thing in the senate. where are we on the "kate's law," senator cruz? >> good evening, bill. it is good to join you. kate's law, as you noted, the last congress put it up for a vote, the house of representatives passed it, and the senate democrats filibustered it. we got three votes in the senate the last time around. y i hope and believe we will bring it up for a vote again, but this time we will have a president unlike barack obama, a president who supports kate's law, supports a mandatory minimum sentence of at least five years in prison for aggravated felons who illegally reenter this country.y. it was named -- as you know, it was named after kate steinle, who you shined the light on so powerfully, the terrible story where she was murdered by a career criminal, who kept coming into this country over and over and over again. kate steinle should never have been killed. the laws made sense. >> bill: seven times.ga this low-level drug dealer came back seven times after being deported six times. why do you think, senator cruz, that barack obama, president obama, didn't get behind the law? >> well, unfortunately, president obama and an awful lot of congressional democrats support illegal immigrants. >> bill: this is violence. this isn't illegal immigration. >> but they don't distinguish among them. so the obama administration repeatedly released violent criminal illegal aliens. they released rapists. bill, i was down at the border at mcallen a couple years ago and i was visiting with border patrols and sheriffs and law enforcement and it was right after the presidential election. and the degree of relief of these men and women who risk their lives trying to keep this country safe, because in a border patrol, for eight years, they have had political leadership telling them, don't do your job, you will be punished for doing your job. and i think that changed onob january 20th. i think today's orders were an example of strong leadership from president trump. >> bill: all right, now, congressman king, you are a hero, too, along with senator cruz, because you are driving this law in the house. it won't have any problem in the house, it is the senate where they are going to have to get al few democrats over, which i senator agree with senator cruz, it will happen. joe manchin will come over, a few others will come over. where is your bill, congressman king and senator cruz's bill and senator grassley is a hero, too, is it compatible, have you guys reconciled it? >> it is. we are reconciled on the language. it has happened before that senator cruz and i have matched up on legislation that just by, i will say proper instinct, rather than planning it. we came together on this in that fashion. the last congress retired it, i picked it up verbatim and introduced it into the congress. we are gathering signatures now. i didn't check the numbers, butr they are just growing and it's early. i serve on the judiciary committee, it is natural for me to take it up. and it passed the congress 241-179. and we have a president who is calling for it. so i'm confident it will pass the house and probably fairly early in this congress. >> bill: i was going to say, senator cruz, what is ther time frame on this? >> i hope sooner rather than later. >> bill: are we talking weeks, months? what are we talking? >> you know, that is going to be a decision for mitch mcconnell. i am certainly a pressing for te vote as soon as possible. we have got ten red state a democrats who are up for election in states in 2018 that donald trump carried. and i got to say, if you are a red state democrat, you can't be thrilled about the prospect of a voting in favor of letting in career criminals, especially when you have a president of the united states who is going to be shining -- of course -- >> bill: just think about it. think about it. you have got a violent, convicted criminal,, convicted here in the united states, not in bolivia, all right, and you deport tm at our expense, ande he comes back, and you don't want to put him in jail for five years? what? why? it's insane! >> it is exactly right. but, you know, bill, the last congress, the head of the immigration enforcement unit under obama was testifying at the senate judiciary committee, and i asked her a simple question, i said, how many murderers, illegal aliens with homicide convictions, did dhs, did the obama administration, release this week. she said, i don't know. i asked, how many rapists? she said, i don't know. i said, how many people committed an aggravated assault and she said, i don't know. that is crazy, the answer should be zero, zero, zero. i hope and believe with this new president, with this new administration, they are not allowing violent criminals -- >> bill: congressman king, i just hope the democratic party and the reps in the house wouldg join with the republicans. you know, just put up and say, look, enough of this madness. we are going to do the right thing. we are going to come together and pass kate's law. and the steinle family at least would have that. last word, congressman king. >> jim and liz steinle deserve our prayers and they deserve the action of united states congress, the house and the senate. i know that when jim testified before the house judiciary committee, it was heartbreaking, and the courage that brought him to that congress to deliver that story of his daughter being shot in the back and dying in his arms. when i saw that happen in the news the first day, i sent out a tweet that said "this will make you cry." thinking of it even this many months past, that is what it does. we have got to step up and serve this. it is not 124 families or so that are grieving here. it is thousands of families altogether over the years. >> bill: and americans who are grieving with them. >> and i hope that congress hears that plea and answers us. >> bill: okay. all right, guys. you are doing great work and we really appreciate you coming on tonight.uy next on "the rundown," rivera and bolling will respond to the executive orders today on illegal immigration. then a college professor said the vicious, hateful campaign against president trump should stop.y "the factor" is coming right back. ♪ t z282uz zwtz y282uy ywty new girl, huh?

executive order signed. no specificity on what funds will be denied, san francisco and other places. and you are going to have to get congress involved because they have the purse strings. what do you think? >> well, maybe you have to get involved because there are ways to hold back. look, there are funds that are sent to cities, states and cities, for protection, for border protection, to assist the removal of illegals from their cities and municipalities. they can pull some of that back if they choose. but there are other funds that they can pull back as well. they don't have to cut off -- there is law enforcement -- >> bill: you think the cities and counties that are doing that are going to get punished and punished fast. >> i think trump was the first one who is going to step up and do it. even prior to that, it has basically been, look away, yeah. >> not only do i think that this will start a tidal wave of lawsuits, every jurisdiction of the 300 u.s. cities, there is a reason 300 u.s. cities are sanctuary cities.er a federal judge in chicago, and i have told this to bolling before, has said the federal detainer -- in other words, what is wrong with sanchez, the killer of kate? w the problem is, they didn't send an arrest warrant to the sheriff of san francisco. they sent to it to the detainer. the federal judge in chicago said that detainers are illegal. why? a because the federal government cannot order a local jurisdiction to enforce immigration. >> bill: sessions is going to get in there and be tougher than trump on sanctuary cities. my question is you, not whether it is right or wrong, do you think of the funds are going to be withheld from these places? >> i think i'm a legallyes speaking, there are two supreme court decisions. legally speaking, as eric alludes to, the only funds you can withhold -- in other words, you can't withhold highway fundf or school funds for a city like this, gets billions of dollars. you can withhold federal grants to law enforcement because arguably, this is about law enforcement. >> but they need that. >> of course they need that. >> bill: we both agree, at least something needs to be done. but in some places like california, jerry brown, the governor, has already said we are going to litigatee everything. on the second front, the wall. i support the wall, not because i think it is going to stop people. >> it will. >> bill: it will cut them back. but drugs. it is going to make it much harder for the cartels to get heavyweight drugs into the united states. and therefore, it is worthy for that reason. bolling. >> i agree with you 100%. i know geraldo will push back. i have seen him in drug tunnels looking for el chapo before. here's the point. you put a barrier up, you make it more difficult.ou just by law of physics, you will restrict some of it. not all of it. but a percentage of it and the bigger the wall, the higher the wall, the deeper the wall, the more you'll restrict. >> you say i have been in el chapo's tunnels. it is not going to stop the pros.. it's gonna stop juan and maria. the avocado pickers. >> okay, geraldo. >> bill: it will make it harder. >> i'm going to shock you. i am withdrawing my opposition to the wall. >> bill: oh! >> listen, elections have consequences, this was his signature issue, and if the people want the wall, it is a waste of money -- >> can i make a point? >> we almost walked outside on a show once over the wall. >> we can pick it up right now. >> bill: geraldo is down with the wall now. i think you should have a peaceful wall sponsor. wall, sponsored by geraldo. you could have your picture there. >> a billion-dollar wall and a $25 billion ladder and the ladder will triumph. >> bill: we'll see. the guy can't carry over a ton of drugs on a ladder. >> wouldn't you rather bridges, tunnels, public schools, highways?

'cause i taught them that the k fourth of july is an important holiday but it was basically a declaration to a foreign leader. the inauguration day is far more important. that is where we keep a promiseo to each other. that even when we are divisive, even when we are hateful in elections, we come together on that day every four years and we affirm what is really a leap of faith under our system. and to see all of those members of congress boycotting this inauguration, i thought was shameful. >> bill: what do you think is driving -- i've named it now the trump derangement syndrome. what is driving that? >> [laughs] well, i think part of it is that there are a lot of folks in this town that want to redirect a lot of this anger. you know, the democrats helped bring about this election is much as donald trump did. they didn't look at polls that said that people wanted an antiestablishment figure. they didn't look at polls showing that hillary clinton had record negatives.n they pushed through her like she was the anointed candidate for the democratic party. they steamrolled sanders.e the results should not surprise many people. but there are a lot of folks that want to suggest, look, it wasn't us. it wasn't our message, it wasn't our choices. much of that same leadership is still in place. instead they want to suggest that somehow he stole thee election or that putin gave him the office, which is, of course, ridiculous.e >> bill: those are all devices to generate a real hatred of donald trump. so he evokes this powerful support for his people who lovee him, okay, but also, this hatred for people who loathe him. and i am wondering, what drives the loathing?e is it any one thing? is it his personality? is it a stance on an issue? what you think it is? >> i think that is what is so dangerous about this. there is this disconnect from reality as people create this mythology of just total hate. you know, i had one relative at my house who was talking about trump supporters, very negative comments. i said, you know, there are very nice trump supporters. about 47% of people voted for him. you do realize that there are lots of nice trump supporters. and she wouldn't accept that. i think that is part of this mythology. >> bill: why wouldn't she accept it though? you are a logical man. she wouldn't accept that 47% of the voting public isn't evil? she wouldn't accept that? that's irrational. >> i think that there is this rhetoric that is pushing everyone to extremes on both sides. it is dangerous for a government like ours. we have to get along. we have problems to solve. sometimes, when you have a bigig change, like the trump administration, it can bring positive things. you can re-look at issues. if trump is willing to work with congress, we can come up with some innovative solutions. >> bill: well, if he is successful, that is going to make the haters hate them even more. you know that. i don't think you will win over a certain segment of the population. what can trump do himself, from your vantage point, to try to assuage some of this anger toward him? is there anything he can do? >> in some ways, he benefits. i always tell my wife that the success of our marriage is due to the fact that i lowered her expectations so much that i surpass them every day. trump may have that advantage. the expectations are so low.he if he does anything but a nuclear strike in the first three weeks, a lot of predictions will be wrong. i think that he could show that it is possible to come up with new ideas. i thought it was interestingt when he talked about inner cities and said, you know, i know that these are democratic strongholds. but it hasn't really worked out. >> bill: no, it hasn't. if he sends the troops into chicago, by the troops, i mean federal agents and federal attorneys, that may go a long way in showing people that he does care about it. >> also i think he needs to look at more innovative solutions, new ways of looking at those problems. >> bill: he is certainly taking a lot of action. i don't how innovative it is. it is certainly definite. professor, we appreciate your point of view. plenty more ahead as "the factor" moves along this evening. lou dobbs as to whether, as supporter of trump, he can cover the president fairly. martha maccallum on the latest of the bowe bergdahl desertion trial. we hope you stay with us for the latest details. my bladder wake me up from my sweet dreams?

because i called him on his immigration policies, his border security policies, as well as the fight against terrorists. >> bill: so those two guys. now, so much emotion invested in trump, if you have that, can you, if it doesn't work, say it hasn't worked? >> absolutely. i do it every day and have done in almost every day of myk, career. >> bill: when was the last timeh you criticized trump? >> the last time i criticized trump? early on, at one point, i thought he had exceeded himself in terms of some of his conduct. and i said so on the air. one time. >> bill: can you give me anof example? >> no, i can't recall what the example was. you are pressing me. >> bill: look, i am not disparaging you. >> you are. but it's okay. >> bill: no, i'm not. if you, in your heart, believe that he is the best leader for this country -- >> i know it rationally,el objectively, as well as in my heart. i >> bill: i don't have any problem with that.l. any problem at all. but if it doesn't work, he is a bold guy -- >> he is a bold guy. and i am milquetoast. i would never, ever suggest that power is making a mistake. let me say on the trade deal.st we've got 40 years of consecutive trade deficits in this country. every one of those reduces economic growth for this country, reduces jobs.ry more money is going out than is coming in. it is time to change that. we know that about so-called free trade. secondly, you cannot name one free-trade deal, quote-unquote,, that is free trade. that is not impaired by some sort of tariff or tax on those goods in those reciprocal agreements. >> bill: you know what, i tend to agree with this. >> in terms of national security -- >> bill: i tend to agree that all the stuff that we havena doe in the past vis-a-vis trade with foreign nations doesn't really help the folks. >> it doesn't help the middle class, which has been shrinking for 30 years. precisely. who is the one who has attacked the orthodoxies, the establishment?

>> 217 were arrested on charges of riot felony -- felony rioting, which is more than five people involvedwh and more than $100,000 damaged. that is what they did -- more than $20,000. their damage was over $100,000, starbucks window, two banks, they set a limousine on fire, rode on the side of it, that thing was blazing up and down the street. they caused a lot of damage, bill, they will appear in court. many have them already. they have a court date for most of them that will be in february. a they were released on their own recognizance. many of them pleaded not guilty. but they will get their date in court in february. >> bill: but i don't know, thesg kinds of things always start out, yeah, we are going to getry them. then they plea bargain down, a lot of them not going to show up. if you are released on your own recognizance, a lot of people don't live in washington. i mean, they are back, they're not going to show. yeah, there will be warrants for their arrests. but right now, all 217 -- there were 230 arrested, but i guess 13 they let go or something?

what would we do with sergeant bergdahl 50 years ago? that's right. boom. boom. >> bill: all right, so now his attorney is doing what? >> the attorneys put together a 28-minute tape, strung together all of these instances where donald trump called out bowe bergdahl, called him a traitor. you saw the rest on that tape. now they are saying that because he is a commander in chief, he has something called unlawful command influence, meaning that in a military court, he willet basically taint the jury. that they will all say, whether they voted for donald trump or not, that they are under his command and that they will be swayed by his opinion about this case.. >> bill: they want the casend dismissed. >> they want the case dismissed. >> bill: based on --se but he didn't say those things while he was commander in chief. >> that is gonna be histh argument.is he will say that he said those things before president, hasn't said them since. perhaps if he made some new remarks that said that he wants everyone to be fair and just, perhaps they would be clear. >> bill: what is the next hearing in this trial?ex >> april at fort bragg is the next appearance for bowe bergdahl. as you said, trying toed get pardoned by former president obama. >> bill: that didn't work. >> that didn't work. he will face these charges. he has a desk job right now, he is not under arrest right now. >> bill: is he in north carolina too?
