TIME OFF, ALI. >> COURTNEY, THANK YOU FOR YOUR
REPORTING ON THIS.
JOINING US NOW, CONGRESSMAN
CISNERO.
CISNERO. HE’S A VETERAN HIMSELF.
GOOD TO SEE YOU, THANK YOU FOR
JOINING US.
JOINING US. >> THANK YOU FOR HAVING ME.
>> AS YOU HEARD CONCERNS THAT
THE PRESIDENT’S 4th OF JULY
CELEBRATION IS HEAVY ON
PAGEANTRY AND COULD FEEL MORE OF
A CAMPAIGN TACTIC.
WHAT IS YOUR TAKE ON THIS?
THERE IS ALWAYS A PARADE.
THIS ONE SEEMS TO HAVE A BIT
MORE MILITARY COMPONENT AND A
BIT MORE --
>>> THE 4th OF JULY OF SHOULD BE
ABOUT CELEBRATING OUR DEMOCRACY
AND INDEPENDENCE.
AND INDEPENDENCE. WE HAVE VETERANS’ DAY AND I
THINK RIGHT NOW WHAT HE’S DOING
IS TURNING THIS EVENT INTO A
SPECTACLE.
SPECTACLE. THAT’S NOT SOMETHING THAT WE
THEED AND
THEED AND NEED.
NEED. A LOT OF THE GENERALS ARE NOT
GOING TO BE THERE BECAUSE THEY
MADE PLANS UNFORTUNATELY FOR
SERVICE MEMBERS THAT WILL HAVE
TO BE THERE WITH THE TANKS.
THEY HAVE TO BE THERE WITH THE
AIRCRAFTS FOR THE FLY OVER.
NOW THEY HAVE TO SPEND IT HERE
FOR THE PARADE INSTEAD OF
SPENDING WITH THEIR FAMILY AND
FRIENDS.
FRIENDS. >> WE ARE HEARING THE DMZ DID
NOT GET ANY TICKETS TO THE
PRESIDENT’S EVENT.
PRESIDENT’S EVENT. WE HEARD KELLYANNE CONWAY SAYS
IT IS A PUBLIC EVENT.
WHAT DO YOU KNOW ABOUT THIS?
>> I KNOW I WAS NOT OFFERED ANY
TICKETS.
TICKETS. THIS IS WHAT THIS PRESIDENT IS
DOING.
DOING. HE’S TURNING IT INTO A CAMPAIGN
RALLY FOR HIMSELF AND THIS IS
NOT WHAT THE 4th OF JULY IS
SUPPOSED TO BE ABOUT.
THIS IS SUPPOSED TO BE
CELEBRATING THE BIRTH OF OUR
NATION, THE BIRTH OF OUR
DEMOCRACY AND REALLY HE’S
TURNING IT INTO AN EVENT
COMPLETELY FOR HIMSELF SOME
WHERE HE COULD HIGHLIGHT HIMSELF
AND WE’LL SEE SOME OF THESE
HIGHLIGHTS AND CAMPAIGN FOOTAGE
LATER ON.
LATER ON. >> WHAT IS YOUR SENSE OF
CONGRESS IS PLANNING TO TAKE
ACTION.
ACTION. WE SAW THE INSPECTOR GENERAL’S
REPORT WHICH IS SCAVING AND GOES
RIGHT IN THE FACE OF WHAT DHS
OFFICIALS AND LEADERS OF THE
ADMINISTRATION HAVE BEEN SAYING
ABOUT THESE DETENTION CENTERS.
DHS REPORT IS RIGHT IN LINE OF
WHAT OUR REPORTERS AND WHAT YOU
MEMBERS OF CONGRESS HAVE BEEN
REPORTING ABOUT THESE CENTERS
AND INCOMPLETE CONTRAST OF WHAT
THE ADMINISTRATION IS SAYING.
>> WELL, THE DHS REPORT IS
CONFIRMING WHAT WE HAVE BEEN
HEARING ALL ALONG THAT THE
SITUATION DOWN THERE IN THE
FACILITIES IS ATROCIOUS.
YOU KNOW WE ARE TREATING THESE
INDIVIDUALS WHO ARE COMING HERE
TO THE COUNTRY JUST TRYING TO
SEEK A BETTER LIFE FOR
THEMSELVES AND FAMILIES.
WE ARE TREATING THEM WORSE THAN
OUR PRISONERS.
OUR PRISONERS. IT IS SOMETHING THAT NEEDS TO
CHANGE.
CHANGE. THAT’S WHY I COULD NOT SUPPORT
THE APPROPRIATIONS THAT PASSED
THROUGH THE HOUSE LAST WEEK THAT
THE PRESIDENT WAS GOING TO SIGN.
IT IS NOT GOING TO CHANGE ANY
POLLTY
POLLTY POLICIES
POLICIES POLICIES.
POLICIES. IT WILL BE BUSINESS AS USUAL FOR
HOMELAND SECURITY AND I.C.E.
WE NEED REAL ACTION THAT’S GOING
TO CHANGE THE CONDITIONS.
>> $400 MILLION, THAT KAPTCAN’T
BUSINESS AS USUAL.
>> A LOT OF IT IS GOING TO GO.
WE KNOW WHAT THEY ARE DOING.
THEY’RE SAYING THERE IS NOTHING
IN THAT BILL THAT’S GOING TO
CHANGE WHAT WAS GOING ON.
THERE IS NOTHING THAT’S GOING TO
CHANGE THE STANDARDS.
THERE IS NOTHING THAT’S GOING TO
MAKE IT MANDATORY THAT THEY SEE
A POSITION.
A POSITION. WE ARE HEARING ABOUT THESE
CHILDREN AREWHO ARE DYING BECAUS
NO ONE IS LOOKING AT THEM.
THEY HAVE THE FLU OR THINGS THAT
COULD BE TREATED SIMPLY THAT WE
HAVE THE MEDICATION TO DO AND
THEY ARE NOT GIVEN THAT
MEDICATION.
MEDICATION. >> IT DOES NOT CHAENGNGE POLICIE
BUT IT DOES FUND -- I GUESS I
WORRY OF WHAT YOU THINK OF A
GOOD HUMANITARIAN BILL THAT’S
NOT ACHIEVABLE AND VOTING
AGAINST ONE THAT’S ACHIEVABLE.
>> WELL, THIS IS A THING WE NEED
TO KEEP TO PUSH FOR IT AND I AM
GOING TO BE VOCAL ABOUT.
WE NEED TO PUSH FOR HUMANITARIAN
TREATMENTS OF THESE INDIVIDUALS
THAT ARE IN THESE FACILITIES.
WE NEED TO MAKE SURE THEY’LL
SEEK POSITIONS AND GET HOT MEALS
AND IT IS NOT A SANDWICH.
AGAIN, IT IS GOOD THAT THEY’LL
BE ABLE TO GET MORE BALOGNEY
SANDWICH
SANDWICH SANDWICH.
SANDWICH. WE NEED A BILL THAT WILL CHANGE
