desantis in florida. all you need is a quarter of the people that just supported trump to sign a petition and it appears they have done that. he failed miserably. he locked on the largest for the economy in the world and let out prisoners and now gavin newsom will be held accountable. brian: here we go, that s a look at our road and that is philadelphia. ainsley: this is our oc wagon. yesterday brian said he thinks the anchor who says hello for should decide the song. brian: i was hoping that would be a new tradition i mean, if you went to the other side of the album. ainsley: if you will suggest it, you should know it. brian: but i don t know every song. i focus most of my youth with the base city rollers. i thought they would have long jevity but they did not and they left with their mullahs. if you google base city rollers you will know what i mean. so great to be with you all. brian: you should ve seen at lawrence s face when he walked in. like he was headed to
years work. they pay a fine. they have to learn how it speak english and they have to pass tests. tests.he had you are. he is on camera. got the record in 2006. actually voted. didn t just talk about it. voted for 700 miles of border fence. now he oppose you had a border wall fence. whatever you call it in terms of sanctuary season he was against cities that defy immigration law 2019. does not support a crackdown on those very sanctuary cities. sounds like hypocritical record. not just him talk about secure fence act. he had two colleagues then senators obama and clinton also supported this fencing, the 700 miles. so democrats have changed their tune. i want to bring up another point that even biden did talk about years ago. that is he actually proposed that employers who hire undocumented workers should be put in jail for hiring them illegally. he has a lot to answer for. what we are seeing, he hasn t come out with a policy position fully on
griff: hope you had a good christmas. merry christmas. griff: the issue hasn t resolved itself. i think the president is doing the right thing. everything they have built the wall i have seen comments earlier in the show. every place a wall or pairier has been built, it has resulted in decreased illegal immigration, decreased drug smuggling 100 had% of the time it s been effective. people like nancy pelosi and schumer need to look at the data. it s available to them. katie: you mentioned nancy pelosi. she said in an op-ed for u.s.a. today that he talked about referring to president trump about terrorists coming in over that particular border, which wasn t. so he talked about people bringing in diseases and all the rest of that which wasn t so. he is using scare tactics that are not evidence-based and it s wrong. mr. homan, you have been on the ground dealing with these issues front and center. is she right about the things that she is rebutting the president on? no. she is 10
