DAVID: REPUBLICANS ARE NOW IN
CONTROL OF THE HOUSE AND THEY’RE
WASTING NO TIME GETTING TO WORK,
VISITING THE SOUTHERN BORDER
WHERE ILLEGAL MIGRANTS CONTINUE
TO FLOOD IN, CREATING A
HUMANITARIAN AND A NATIONAL
SECURITY CRISIS.
GOP LEADER KEVIN McCARTHY SAYS
HOMELAND SECURITY SECRETARY
MAYORKAS HAS TWO OPTIONS FOR HIS
HANDLING OF THE CRISIS, RESIGN,
OR FACE IMPEACHMENT.
LISTEN.
>> HIS ACTIONS HAVE PRODUCED THE
GREATEST WAVE OF ILLEGAL
IMMIGRATION IN RECORDED HISTORY.
IF SECRETARY MAYORKAS DOES NOT
RESIGN, HOUSE REPUBLICANS WILL
INVESTIGATE EVERY ORDER, EVERY
ACTION, AND EVERY FAILURE.
WE’LL DETERMINE WHETHER WE CAN
BEGIN IMPEACHMENT INQUIRY.
DAVID: WOW, JOINING ME NOW FOR
MORE IS CONGRESSMAN BYRON
DONALDS OF FLORIDA, WHO HAS BEEN
VERY HOT ABOUT THIS TOPIC IN
PARTICULAR.
CONGRESSMAN, GOOD TO SEE YOU.
CONGRATULATIONS FOR YOUR
RE-ELECTION.
I WANT TO ASK, DHS CAME OUT WITH
A STATEMENT CONCERNING THE
COMMENTS OF THE CONGRESSMAN AT
THE BORDER AND THEY SAID THE
FOLLOWING, SECRETARY MAYORKAS IS
PROUD TO ADVANCE THE NOBLE
MISSION OF THIS DEPARTMENT.
THE DEPARTMENT WILL CONTINUE OUR
WORK TO ENFORCE OUR LAWS AND
SECURE OUR BORDER WHILE BUILDING
A SAFE, ORDERLY AND HUMANE
IMMIGRATION SYSTEM.
NOW, FIRST OF ALL, THAT IS JUST
AN INSULT TO OUR INTELLIGENCE.
WE KNOW THAT THE BORDER IS LESS
SECURE.
I MEAN NUMBERS ARE SO OUT OF
WHACK TO THESE COMMENTS AND, TO
SUGGEST THAT IT IS HUMANE THAT
THEY’RE BUILDING A MORE HUMANE
SYSTEM WHEN OVER 800 IMMIGRANTS
THAT DIED LAST FISCAL YEAR
ALONE, IN VARIOUS ACCIDENTS,
DROWNINGS, ET CETERA.
IT IS NEITHER HUMANE NOR IS IT
SECURE.
>> THAT STATEMENT FROM THE
DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND SECURITY
IS PURE PROPAGANDA.
THAT IS WHAT THAT IS.
THEY’RE LYING TO US.
SECRETARY MAYORKAS IN MY OPINION
WHEN HE TELLS CONGRESS THE
BORDER IS SECURE THAT’S A LIE.
ANYBODY THAT GOES DOWN THERE AND
SEES IT FIRST-HAND KNOWS THE
TRUTH.
LISTEN, NOT JUST THE PEOPLE WHO
HAVE DIED ON THE JOURNEY
CROSSING THE SOUTHERN BORDER
ILLEGALLY.
IT IS THE YOUNG GIRLS WHO ARE
RAPED AND SOLD INTO SEX SLAVERY.
DAVID: YES.
>> BY THE DRUG CARTELS.
THAT HAPPENS AS WELL.
IT’S THE, IT’S THE POUNDS AND
HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF POUNDS
OF FENTANYL CROSSING OUR BORDER,
KILLING OUR CITIZENS IN THE
UNITED STATES.
AND LAST BUT NOT LEAST WHAT THEY
HAVE DONE IS THE MOST LIBERAL
INTERPRETATION OF ASYLUM IN THE
HISTORY OF THE UNITED STATES.
SO IF THEY’RE COOL WITH THAT,
THEN THAT’S ONE THING BUT THE
AMERICAN PEOPLE ARE NOT.
REPUBLICANS IN CONGRESS ARE NOT.
WE ARE GOING TO HOLD
INVESTIGATIONS BECAUSE ENOUGH IS
ENOUGH.
DAVID: I DON’T KNOW IF YOU HEARD
THE LAST SEGMENT, WE HAD ART
LAFFER ON HIS FOCUS ALWAYS BEEN
ON THE ECONOMY.
HE WORRIES DIVERTING ATTENTION
FROM THE ECONOMY, GRANTED YOU
HAVE TO DEAL WITH WHAT IS GOING
ON THE BORDER.
YOU HAVE TO CALL OUT THEIR BAD
BEHAVIOR BUT IF YOU IMPEACH
MAYORKAS, FACE IT HIS
REPLACEMENT WILL BE NO
DIFFERENT.
HE WILL HAVE THE SAME MENTAL
MINDSET AS MAYORKAS DOES, OR THE
SAME ACTIONS OR NON-ACTIONS AS
VICE PRESIDENT KAMALA HARRIS
HAS.
MAYBE YOU JUST FOCUS ON HEARINGS
THAT EXPOSE HOW HORRIBLE THE
SITUATION IS AT THE BORDER,
STOPPING SHORT OF AN IMPEACHMENT
HEARING?
>> LOOK, I LOVE MY GOOD FRIEND
ART LAFFER.
HE IS ONE OF THE GREAT ECONOMIC
MINDS OF OUR TIME BUT ON THIS
ONE HE IS JUST NOT IN THE RIGHT
PLACE WHERE WE NEED TO BE.
IF YOU LET MAYORKAS STAY THERE,
HOLD HEARINGS, YOU KEEP THROWING
OUT THE INFORMATION, GUESS WHAT
"THE NEW YORK TIMES" DOESN’T
CARE UNLESS YOU SEND MIGRANTS TO
NEW YORK CITY, "WASHINGTON POST"
DOESN’T CARE UNLESS YOU DROP
MIGRANTS ON IN FRONT OF THE
NAVAL OBSERVATORY.
THEY AREPUBLICANS ARE PLAYING
POLITICS.
I’M HERE TO GET THE JOCK DONE.
WE CAN WALK AND CHEW GUM AT THE
SAME TIME.
WE CAN HANDLE ENERGY POLICIES,
ECONOMIC POLICIES WHILE MANAGING
THE BORDER DOING WHAT IS
NECESSARY ON BEHALF OF THE
AMERICAN PEOPLE.
I UNDERSTAND WHY ART BELIEVES
THAT.
A LOT OF PEOPLE ACTUALLY BELIEVE
THAT.
THAT IS BECAUSE IF YOU LOOK AT
THE HISTORY OF OUR POLITICS
TYPICALLY WASHINGTON CAN ONLY
FOCUS ON ONE ISSUE AT A TIME.
BUT I’M A BUSINESS GUY.
I CAN FOCUS ON FOUR ISSUES AT A
TIME.
SO CAN A LOT OF OTHER PEOPLE UP
ON CAPITOL HILL.
THAT IS WHAT WE NEED TO BE DOING
BECAUSE IT IS TIME TO GET DOWN
TO BUSINESS FOR THE AMERICAN
PEOPLE.
DAVID: CONGRESSMAN, I HOPE IF
YOU HAVE A COMMITTEE HEARING YOU
PUT OUT, YOU PLAY THIS TAPE THAT
I’M GOING TO PLAY FOR YOU IN A
MOMENT OVER AND OVER AND OVER
AND OVER AGAIN BECAUSE WHAT THE
DEMOCRATS ARE SAYING NOW IS SO
DIFFERENT FROM WHAT THE SAME
DEMOCRATS WERE SAYING A COUPLE
YEARS AGO.
ROLL TAPE.
>> CONSTRUCTION OF A 630-MILE
BORDER FENCE OR 630 MILES OF
BORDER FENCE THAT CREATE A
SIGNIFICANT BARRIER TO ILLEGAL
IMMIGRATION TO OUR SOUTHERN LAND
BORDER.
ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION IS WRONG,
PLAIN AND SIMPLE.
>> THE BILL BEFORE US WILL
CERTAINLY DO SOME GOOD.
IT WILL AUTHORIZESOME
BADLY-NEEDED FUNDING FOR BETTER
FENCES AND BETTER SECURITY ALONG
OUR BORDERS.
THAT SHOULD HELP STEM SOME OF
THE TIDE OF ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION
IN THIS COUNTRY.
DAVID: ALL RIGHT.
I WANT TO TALK ABOUT THE STUDENT
LOAN ISSUE BUT YOU GOT TO PLAY
THAT OVER AND OVER AND OVER AND
OVER AGAIN BECAUSE RIGHT NOW
THEY’RE SAYING COMPLETELY THE
OPPOSITE.
>> I MEAN I WILL PLAY IT BUT
THEY DON’T CARE.
EVEN CHUCK SCHUMER DOESN’T CARE.
HE CAME OUT YESTERDAY TALKING
ABOUT A PATHWAY TO CITIZENSHIP.
DAVID: 11 MILLION.
>> DEMOCRATS DON’T CARE UNLESS
IT IS A ISSUE THAT WILL HELP
THEM GET ELECTED.
WE HAVE TO GET TO WORK FOR THE
AMERICAN PEOPLE.
DAVID: LET’S SWITCH GEARS TO
PRESIDENT BIDEN’S BAILOUT OF
STUDENT LOAN DEBT TO THE TUNE OF
500 BILLION.
EVEN SHORT OF THAT, HE EXTENDED
THE MORATORIUM ON PAYMENT UNTIL
JUNE.
SOMETHING HE SAID HE WOULDN’T
DO.
IT WOULD BE OVER IN DECEMBER.
THAT IS ANOTHER $40 BILLION ON
TOP OF THE 200 BILLION WE
ALREADY SPENT.
HOW DOES THIS THING END?
>> WELL, THIS IS WHERE CONGRESS
HAS TO DO ITS JOB AND ACTUALLY
GO BACK IN TO UNWIND A LOT OF
THESE PRESIDENTIAL EMERGENCIES
THAT ARE CREATED BY EXECUTIVE
ORDER.
HE IS USING AN EMERGENCY
DOCTRINE FROM COVID-19 TO EXTEND
THESE MORATORIUMS.
IT IS OUTRAGEOUS THIS IS
CONGRESS’S FAULT.
WE HAVE TO REASSERT OUR
AUTHORITY IN THE FEDERAL
BUREAUCRACY AND THE FEDERAL
GOVERNMENT AND TAKE AWAY SOME OF
THESE POWERS FROM THE EXECUTIVE.
WHAT HE IS DOING IS PLAYING
POLITICS.
HE IS BUYING VOTES, PURE AND
SIMPLE.
AND FOR MY FRIENDS ON THE OTHER
SIDE OF THE AISLE WHO WANT TO
TALK ABOUT DEMOCRACY ALWAYS ON
THE LINE, WHEN THE PRESIDENT
ABUSES HIS AUTHORITY TO
LITERALLY BUY VOTES FROM THE
AMERICAN PEOPLE, THAT IS
DESTRUCTIVE OF OUR DEMOCRACY.
THE PRESIDENT SHOULD NOT BE
DOING THIS ANYMORE.
COVID-19 IS LONG SINCE BEEN AN
ISSUE.
NOBODY IS EVEN TALKING ABOUT IT
ANYMORE BUT HE IS DOING THIS
SIMPLY TO BUY VOTES AND KEEP HIS
APPROVAL NUMBERS UP LONG ENOUGH
BECAUSE THE REST OF HIS AGENDA
HAS BEEN A DISASTER.
DAVID: BY THE WAY IT IS
PREDICATED NOT ONLY ON THE
EMERGENCY BUT ALSO THE HEROS ACT
WHICH GOES WAY BACK, DOESN’T FIT
AT ALL.
WHEN THE SUPREME COURT GETS IT
I’M SURE THEY WILL THROW IT OUT.
WILL IT HAVE GONE TOO FAR.
MILLIONS OF PEOPLE SIGNED NOTES
SAYING I DESERVE THE STUDENT
LOAN FORGIVENESS BECAUSE, THIS
AND THAT, AND WHAT THE PRESIDENT
HAS SUGGESTED?
IS IT POSSIBLE TO CLAW BACK THE
MONEY THAT HAS BEEN SPENT?
I MEAN THAT WILL BE TOUGH TO DO?
>> WE CAN DEFINITELY DO IT BUT
THE TRUTH IS, IT HAS GONE TOO
FAR.
IT HAS TO BE CLAWED BACK.
WE CAN’T JUST WAIT FOR THE
SUPREME COURT OR ANY COURT TO
SOLVE THESE PROBLEMS.
THAT IS WHY YOU GOT TO HAVE MEN
AND WOMEN IN CONGRESS, YES I’M
LOOKING AT YOU, GEORGIA, BECAUSE
RAFAEL WARNOCK WILL SIGN OFF ON
ALL THIS STUFF AND EVERYTHING
WILL BE OKAY.
YOU HAVE TO HAVE MEN AND WOMEN
IN CONGRESS WHO WILL DO THE
RIGHT THING, AND THESE SILLY
EMERGENCIES JOE BIDEN OR FRANKLY
ANYBODY ELSE CONTINUES TO US
ONLY FOR POLITICAL GAIN.
IT IS NOT HELPING THE COUNTRY
LONG TERM.
DAVID: CONGRESSMAN BYRON DONALDS
I HOPE YOU A LOT OF SLEEP THE
PAST COUPLE DAYS.
YOU WILL BE UP MANY, MANY NIGHTS
FOR THE NEXT TWO YEARS.
IT WILL BE A BUSY TIME FOR YOU
