Smarter sleep will change your life.
>> WE NEED BORDER SECURITY, WE
GOES TO SLEEP IN YOUR LAWN, YOU
SAY SORRY, FOLKS, GET OUT OF
HERE, IF YOU CALL THE POLICE,
THEY ARE GOING TO REMOVE, IT'S
MARIA: BORDER SECURITY SHOWDOWN
THAT WAS PRESIDENT TRUMP LAST
NIGHT REALLY HITTING HOME WITH
HIS CRACK DOWN ON ILLEGAL
IMMIGRATION EMPHASIZING THE NEED
FOR SMARTER SECURITY AT THE
BORDER, JOINING ME RIGHT NOW
TOM, FORMER ACTING DIRECTOR OF
U.S. IMMIGRATION AND CUSTOMS
ENFORCEMENT.
TOM, GOOD TO SEE YOU THIS
MARIA: YOUR REACTION ON HOW THE
PRESIDENT PUT IT LAST NIGHT.
>> LOOK, HE'S A GREAT PRESIDENT,
THE PRESIDENT GETS IT, HE
UNDERSTANDS THAT BORDER
SECURITY, THE SOVEREIGNTY OF
THIS COUNTRY UNDER ATTACK AND HE
WANTS TO PROTECT AMERICAN
CITIZENS LIKE HE PROMISED IN
CAMPAIGN.
HE'S FULFILLING THE PROMISE AND
TAKING CARE OF AMERICA.
MARIA: YEAH, I WAS WATCHING THE
DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW THIS
DOESN'T RESINATE WITH EVERYBODY.
I MEAN, WHAT HE WAS SAYING IN
TERMS OF YOUR LAWN AND PRIVATE,
WHY THAT WOULDN'T RESINATE?
>> I THINK THOSE ON THE LEFT, I
THINK IT DOES RESINATE WITH THEM
AND THEY ARE NOT GOING TO ADMIT
AND AGREE WITH THE PRESIDENT,
NEVER LET HIM BE PRESIDENT
WITHOUT ATTACKING HIM OR FAMILY,
HE MAKES SENSE, THE LAST THING
THE LEFT WANTS TO DO, WE AGREE
WITH THE PRESIDENT, WE NEED
BORDER SECURITY AND HE'S DONE A
LOT FOR, YOU KNOW, PUBLIC SAFETY
AND NATIONAL SECURITY.
THEY ARE NEVER GOING TO ADMIT TO
IT, THEY WILL KEEP PUSHING THE
FALSE AGENDA THEY HAVE BEEN
PUSHING FOR A YEAR NOW.
MARIA: OUTRAGE ON THE LEFT IS
INCREDIBLE, THE PRESIDENT LAST
NIGHT SLAMMED THE DEMOCRATS FOR
UNWAVERING RESISTANCE AGAINST
HIS IMMIGRATION POLICIES, HE
SAID REVERSE PSYCHOLOGY MIGHT BE
THE SECRET TO AGREE TO BORDER
FUNDING, WATCH THIS.
>> SO WE STARTED THE WALL
WALL.
YOU KNOW, THE DEMOCRATS,
ANYTHING I WANT -- IT'S NOT EVEN
THE REPUBLICANS, I DON'T KNOW IF
THEY CARE -- THEY CARE ABOUT ME,
THEY VERY CONCERNED, ANYTHING I
THE WALL, I WILL SAY I DON'T
WANT TO BUILD THE WALL AND THEY
WILL INSIST ON BUILDING IT.
MARIA: MEANWHILE FORMER
PRESIDENT OBAMA IS ENDORSING A
DEMOCRATIC CONGRESSIONAL
CANDIDATE FROM NEW MEXICO WHO
HAS COME OUT OF ABOLISHING ICE,
TOM, WALK US THROUGH THIS
BECAUSE YOUR TAKE ON THE
MOVEMENT TO TERMINATE ICE IS
IMPORTANT HERE GIVEN YOUR
KNOWLEDGE AND EXPERIENCE?
>> LOOKING, ABOLISHING ICE
EQUALS OPEN BORDERS, IF YOU
ABOLISH ICE HERE A COUPLE OF
THINGS THAT YOU'RE DOING, DON'T
ASK TO SEE A JUDGE AND GET
RELEASE PENDING TO SEE THE JUDGE
WHICH MOST DON'T SHOW UP IN
IMMIGRATION COURT AND NO ONE IS
LOOKING FOR YOU, IF YOU GET A
VISA TO COME TO THE UNITED
STATES LIKE THE TERRORISTS DID
IN 9/11 AND OVER STAYED THE
VISA, NOBODY IS LOOKING FOR YOU,
THEY GO HAND IN HAND.
MARIA: TOM 8 PEOPLE HAVE BEEN
ARRESTED FOR FORMING HUMAN BLOCK
AID TO THE ICE HEADQUARTERS IN
COLORADO, THIS IS JUST
YESTERDAY, THEY WERE PROTESTING
THE SEPARATION OF FAMILIES, WHAT
CAN BE DONE HERE IN TERMS OF
GETTING THIS RHETORIC DOWN AND
>> LOOK, THESE PEOPLE WANT TO
PROTEST, WHEN THEY INTERFERE
WITH ICE, THEY SHUT OFFICE DOWN
IN PORTLAND FOR OVER A WEEK AND
THE MAYOR SUPPORTED IT OUT
THERE.
LOOK, HOW MANY CRIMINAL ALIENS,
BECAUSE WE WEREN'T ALLOWED TO DO
JOBS, AND HOW MANY CHILD
PREDATORS, CHILD MOLESTERS, GUN
TRAFFICKERS, WHEN YOU INTERFERE
WITH ICE, WHAT YOU'RE DOING IS
INCREASING THE THREAT ON PUBLIC
LOOK, AND YOU NEED TO EDUCATE
DOESN'T SEPARATE FAMILIES AT THE
GOING ON.
WE ARREST A HUNDRED THOUSAND
CRIMINAL ALIENS, A HUNDRED
THOUSAND PEOPLE THAT ARE HERE IN
THE COUNTRY ILLEGALLY BUT IN
ADDITION COMMITTED SERIOUS
CRIME, ARRESTED PEOPLE, TOOK
THEM OFF THE STREETS OF THIS
COUNTRY AND REMOVED THEM.
ICE OUGHT TO BE GETTING THANK
YOU LETTER AND NOT ATTACKING.
MARIA: WE HAVE DEMOCRATS ALL OF
THE TIME TO SAY IT'S RIDICULOUS
THAT WE ARE FOR OPEN BORDERS AND
HOW DO YOU SEE IT ANY OTHER WAY,
ACTS THAT PAY WANT IS ABOLISH
ICE AND MAKE SURE IS -- IS WIDE
OPEN?
>> YEAH, YOU KNOW, THESE PEOPLE
ON THE FAR LEFT, THE POLITICIANS
ARE PUTTING OWN POLITICAL
AMBITIONS AHEAD OF PUBLIC
SAFETY.
THE WALL TO KEEP THEM OUT BUT
THEY SUPPORT SANCTUARY POLICIES
TO KEEP THEM IN.
IT'S COMPLETELY BACKWARDS AND I
HOPE THE AMERICAN PEOPLE ARE
THE FUNDING FOR THE WALL?
>> I THINK HE IS.
YOU KNOW WHAT, EVERY PLACE THEY
BUILD A WALL OR BARRIER, I WAS A
WALL WORKS EVERY PLACE THEY PUT
THEM, DECREASES ILLEGAL ENTRY,
WHY WOULD YOU NOT WANT TO DO
OR PUBLIC SAFETY?
MARIA: YOU SAY EVERY WALL WORKS,
WHAT WAS THE WALL THAT YOU'RE
REFERRING TO?
>> WELL, DEPENDS ON WHERE THEY
ARE AT.
TECHNOLOGY, THERE'S SOME PLACES
YOU DON'T NEED A WALL BECAUSE
THE -- THE ENVIRONMENT LIKE IN
BIG BEND NATIONAL PARKS THERE'S
CLIFFS THAT ARE HUNDREDS OF FEET
HIGH THAT THEY CAN'T SCALE,
EVERY PLACE THEY BUILD THE WALL
OF DEMOCRATS SUPPORTED BUILDING
THE WALL A FEW YEARS AGO, THE
REASON THEY ARE NOT SUPPORTING
IT NOW IN THE BEGINNING OF THE
INTERVIEW, THEY ARE NOT GOING TO
GIVE THE PRESIDENT A WIN, THEY
WANT TO FIGHT THE PRESIDENT ALL
