KEEP YOU UPDATED ON THAT.
>> Harris: THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
I WANT TO BRING IF MOLLY
HEMINGWAY EDITOR IN CHIEF OF
THE FEDERALIST.
A SOVEREIGN NATION TAKING THE
PRESSURE OF NEARLY 2 MILLION
PEOPLE COMING IN AND BEING
ARRESTED.
YOUR TOP LINE THOUGHTS.
>> ONE OF THE THINGS THAT MAKES
A COUNTRY A SOVEREIGN NATION IS
HAVING A BORDER.
WE DON’T REALLY HAVE A SOUTHERN
BORDER.
THESE NUMBERS ARE SHOCKING BUT
THEY ARE NOT SURPRISING IN
ANOTHER WAY BECAUSE EVEN SINCE
BEFORE PRESIDENT BIDEN WAS
ELECTED HE HAS ENCOURAGED THIS
TYPE OF TRAFFICKING OF HUMANS,
OPENING UP THE BORDER, WHICH
MEANS ALL SORTS OF THINGS LIKE
DRAMATIC INCREASES IN THE
NUMBER OF ILLEGAL DRUGS
CROSSING THE BORDER, THE
EXPLOITATION OF HUMANS WHO WANT
TO GET ACROSS THE BORDER.
IT IS A REAL HUMANITARIAN
CRISIS AND ALSO A CRISIS OF
WHETHER OR NOT WE ARE A COUNTRY
BECAUSE WE REALLY DON’T HAVE
THAT SOUTHERN BORDER.
>> Harris: TELL ME WHAT YOU
MAKE OF THIS ONGOING FEUD NOW
BETWEEN MAYOR ADAMS OF NEW YORK
CITY AND THE GOVERNOR OF TEXAS
IN DIFFERENT PLACES WHERE HE IS
BUSING THESE ILLEGALS, GIVING
AMERICA A TASTE OF WHAT’S GOING
ON THAT HAS OVERWHELMED CITIES
AND STATES ALONG THE BORDER
WITH MEXICO.
>> YOU HAVE ALSO SEEN IT WITH
BOWSER AND NOW SHE IS SOUNDING
THE ALARMS WHILE THE BUSES ARE
ARRIVING IN WASHINGTON, D.C.
THIS IS A SMALL TASTE OF WHAT
HAPPENS WHEN YOU HAVE AN
UNCONTROLLED BORDER WITH
MILLIONS OF PEOPLE CROSSING IT
WHO ARE ILLEGALLY IN THE
COUNTRY OR ILLEGALLY STAYING IN
THE COUNTRY.
I THINK IT’S A TACTIC TO USE TO
HELP PEOPLE BECOME AWARE OF ALL
THE PROBLEMS CAUSED BY THE
FEDERAL GOVERNMENT NOT
MAINTAINING A BORDER.
BUT IT DOESN’T DO NEARLY ENOUGH.
IT -- THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT
NEEDS TO DO WHAT IT HAD DONE IN
THE PREVIOUS ADMINISTRATION.
START TO GET CONTROL OF THE
SOUTHERN BORDER.
>> Harris: I WANT TO TALK ABOUT
A PICTURE UP SIDE-BY-SIDE WITH
YOU NOW.
THE WORDS THAT WE HAVE AT THE
BOTTOM OF THE SCREEN DON’T
COMPLETELY REFLECT WHAT’S
HAPPENING THERE BECAUSE WE
DON’T HAVE ENOUGH ROOM.
LET ME FILL IN THE BLANKS AGAIN.
THAT WAS THE HUMAN SMUGGLER CAR
CHASE GOING ON WITH TEXAS LAW
ENFORCEMENT.
PEOPLE BAILING OUT OF THAT
VEHICLE.
THIS IS NOT A SIMPLE CASE OF
PEOPLE GOING TO THE CHECKPOINTS
AND TRYING TO GET INTO THIS
COUNTRY.
AND DEMOCRATS WANT TO PAINT IT
THAT WAY.
THAT THEY ARE MORE HEART-FILLED
BECAUSE THEY ARE WILLING TO
HELP THE PEOPLE COMING HERE
LEGITIMATELY.
FIRST OF ALL, WE HAVE TO VET THEM.
I DON’T CARE HOW MUCH VETTING
YOU.
>> IT IS SO MUCH WORSE.
THERE IS A CRIMINAL CARTEL
RUNNING OUR NEIGHBOR STATE OF
MEXICO AND THEY ARE COMMITTING
HUMAN RIGHTS ATROCITIES EVERY
DAY.
THE EXPLOITATION OF THESE
MILLIONS OF PEOPLE BEING
PROMISED THINGS BY CARTELS IN
EXCHANGE FOR HUGE AMOUNTS OF
MONEY THEY DON’T HAVE.
THERE ARE WIDESPREAD ISSUES OF
RAPE AND ASSAULT AND KILLINGS
AND ALL OF THESE PROBLEMS.
THERE IS NOTHING HUMANITARIAN
ABOUT NOT HAVING CONTROL OF THE
BORDER.
IT IS ALSO WORTH NOTING THAT
MERRICK GARLAND IS DOING
NOTHING TO SECURE THE BORDER,
EVEN AS HE IS RUNNING CRIMINAL
PROSECUTIONS OF HIS POLITICAL
OPPONENTS GOING AFTER PARENTS
AT SCHOOL BOARDS WHICH IS WHY
HE WILL BE IMPEACHED CLOSE TO
DAY ONE WHEN REPUBLICANS TAKE
OVER.
>> Harris: WE ALL KNOW THE A.G.
OF THE UNITED STATES MERRICK
GARLAND IS A LITTLE, YOU KNOW,
OCCUPIED, PREOCCUPIED NOW
TRYING TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO
KEEP THE AFFIDAVIT WHICH LET
THE SEARCH GO ON AT TRUMP’S
HOUSE UNDER SEAL.
HE IS A LITTLE BUSY NOW YOU
MIGHT SAY.
I’M BEING FACETIOUS.
TWO MILLION.
LET’S PUT THAT INTO CONTEXT.
POP UP THE SCREEN.
WE’RE ON TRACK TO HAVE 2
MILLION PEOPLE ARRESTED COMING
INTO THIS COUNTRY.
THAT IS THE EQUIVALENT TO THE
ENTIRE POPULATION OF THE STATE
OF NEW MEXICO.
IT’S THE EQUIVALENT TO ALL OF
THE PEOPLE WE HAVE IN OUR
NATION’S PRISONS IN JAIL.
AND WITH PEOPLE WATCHING FROM
50 STATES, THIS NUMBER PROBABLY
WOULD BE LOW BUT IT IS
ESTIMATED THAT ABOUT 2 MILLION
VIEWERS ON AVERAGE WATCH AN NBA
GAME.
THAT’S THE EQUIVALENT OF THE
PEOPLE THAT WE HAVE LET COME
ACROSS OUR BORDER, NOT TO
MENTION ALL THOSE GOTAWAYS WE
DON’T KNOW WHERE THEY ARE AND
THEY ARE NOT IN THAT NUMBER.
>> IT UNDERESTIMATES HOW MANY
PEOPLE ARE COMING BECAUSE OF
THOSE GOTAWAYS.
YOU KNOW, NEW YORK AND
WASHINGTON, D.C. ARE MAKING BIG
PRODUCTION ABOUT HOW THEY ARE
HAVING TO HANDLE SOME OF THIS
ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION.
BUT THIS IS WHAT PEOPLE IN
SMALL TOWNS AND SMALLER CITIES
THROUGHOUT THE COUNTRY HAVE HAD
TO BE DEALING WITH, WHICH ARE
LOTS OF CONSTRAINTS ON PUBLIC
FUNDS, LOTS OF INCREASES IN
CRIME OR OTHER ISSUES THAT CAN
BE ATTENDANT WITH THIS TYPE OF
MASS MOVEMENT.
AND THIS IS WHAT AMERICAN
PEOPLE HAVE BEEN DEALING WITH
AND HAVE BEEN BEGGING THEIR
POLITICAL LEADERS TO ADDRESS
FOR DECADES.
WITH VERY FEW EXCEPTIONS IN THE
PREVIOUS ADMINISTRATION IT
HASN’T BEEN DONE FOR DECADES.
YOU DON’T HAVE A COUNTRY IF YOU
DON’T HAVE A MEANINGFUL BORDER
AND YOU DON’T HAVE SECURITY.
WE HAVE A LOT OF PEOPLE WHO
CARE A LOT ABOUT OTHER
COUNTRY’S BORDERS.
THEY DON’T SEEM TO CARE ABOUT
OUR OWN BORDER EVEN NOT --
REFUSING TO GIVE MONEY TO MAKE
SURE THERE IS SECURITY.
REFUSING TO GIVE MONEY SO WE
CAN PROPERLY POLICE THINGS BUT
GIVING TONS OF MONEY IN OTHER
COUNTRIES THROUGHOUT THE WORLD
FOR THE PRECISE SAME THING.
>> Harris: YOU ARE TALKING
FOLLOW THE MONEY.
I WILL FOLLOW THE MONEY TO SEE
IF THE BLUE CITY LEADERS GET
THE KIND OF CASH AND FEDERAL
HELP THAT OTHERS ALONG THE
BORDER IN STATES LIKE ARIZONA
AND TEXAS HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO
GET.
THEY HAVEN’T GOTTEN THAT
SUPPORT.
I WILL FOLLOW THAT MONEY AND
REPORT ON THAT AS I’M SURE YOU
WILL AS WELL.
PRESIDENT BIDEN SET TO TAKE A
BREAK FROM HIS VACATION TO SIGN
THAT MASSIVE TAX HIKE AND
SPENDING BILL TODAY.
THEY CAN CALL IT INFLATION
REDUCTION ACT.
WE KNOW IT’S NOT TRUE BECAUSE
IT’S NEGLIGIBLE IN ITS EFFECTS
ON INFLATION.
WILL IT, HOWEVER, DOUBLE THE
SIZE OF THE I.R.S. SPARKING
MASSIVE AUDIT ANXIETY NOW.
THE WHITE HOUSE ASSISTING THE
EFFECTS WON’T AFFECT EVERYDAY
AMERICANS.
A FORMER I.R.S. WHISTLEBLOWER
SAYS THAT’S NOT TRUE.
THE IDEA THEY’LL GO AFTER THE
BIG BILLIONAIRES AND LARGE
CORPORATIONS IS QUITE B.S., A
QUOTE.
THOSE BILLIONAIRES ARE PROBABLY
SITTING BACK LAUGHING RIGHT NOW.
AND NEW OP-ED SUMS IT UP WITH
THE HEADLINE THE I.R.S. HIRES
AGENTS, NOT ANGELS.
ADDING TAXPAYERS FEAR AUDITS
FOR A REASON EVEN IF THEY’VE
DONE NOTHING WRONG.
REAGAN ECONOMIC ADVISOR ART
LAFFER ON "FOCUS" YESTERDAY.
>> THEY ARE HERE TO RIP YOU OFF
AND THAT’S WHY THEY ARE DOING
IT AND SPENDING ALL THIS MONEY.
IT WILL COST YOU AND PEOPLE
BELOW THE BILLIONAIRE LEVEL A
LOT OF MONEY ON TRYING TO
DEFEND THEMSELVES FROM THESE
TYPES OF AUDITS AND IT WILL
CAUSE A LOT OF ANXIETY.
WHEN YOU SEE THAT LETTER COME
IN I.R.S. AUDIT NOTICE, IT
SENDS YOUR BLOOD PRESSURE
THROUGH THE CEILING.
>> Harris: YOUR REACTION.
>> WEALTHY CORPORATIONS AND
INDIVIDUALS DEFINITELY HAVE THE
MEANS TO PROTECT THEMSELVES
AGAINST INTRUSIVE AUDITS AND
OTHER REGULATIONS THAT COME FROM THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT.
FROM THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT.
IT IS LUDICROUS TO SAY IT IS
ONLY FOR BILLIONAIRES.
IT IS AVERAGE AMERICANS
ORCHESTRATED CAMPAIGN TO TARGET
AMERICANS AND HAVE THE FEDERAL
GOVERNMENT BE AT WAR WITH THOSE
AMERICANS.
IT IS INTERESTING THAT THIS
SO-CALLED INFLATION REDUCTION
ACT.
A POLL SHOWED ONLY 15% BELIEVED
IT WOULD REDUCE INFLATION.
THAT MAKES SENSE.
THERE IS NOTHING IN THE BILL
THAT WOULD REDUCE INFLATION.
>> Harris: REAL QUICKLY, HOW
DOES THIS PLAY POLITICALLY
GOING IN 84 DAYS INTO THE
MID-TERM ELECTIONS?
PEOPLE ARE FEARFUL OF THIS.
IT IS TIED TO THEIR BOTTOM LINE.
HOW DOES THAT PLAY FOR THE
PEOPLE ON THE LEFT WHO THINK
THIS IS A GOOD IDEA TO HIRE ALL
THOSE AGENTS?
THE AMOUNT OF AMMO THEY WILL
HAVE, 5 MILLION ROUNDS LOCK AND
LOAD.
>> IT POINTS TO THE DIFFERENCE
BETWEEN REPUBLICANS AND
DEMOCRATS.
WHEN DEMOCRATS KNOW THEY FACE
HEAVY ELECTORAL LOSSES THEY
PASS WHATEVER LEGISLATION THEY
CAN IN THE PERIOD OF TIME THAT
THEY DO HAVE POWER.
REPUBLICANS HAVE HISTORICALLY
NOT USED THEIR POWER IN WAY
THAT MAKES THEIR VOTERS HAPPY.
SO IT IS -- IT WILL BE
INTERESTING TO SEE WHETHER THE
NEW CROP OF REPUBLICANS THAT’S
COMING IN WE’RE SEEING IN THE
PRIMARIES TODAY AND WHAT WE’VE
ALREADY EXPERIENCED IN THE
ELECTION IN NOVEMBER.
THEY WILL BE MORE RESPONSIVE TO
AMERICANS’ DESIRE THAT ACTUAL
THINGS BE DONE TO REIN IN THE
