8:00 pm
mcsally. trish: tonight, all eyes on our southern border as a caravan of 4,000 migrants break through a gate at the guatemala-mexican bored. they are heading here to the united states. president trump in the border state of arizona promising to do whatever it takes including sending the u.s. military to prevent these people from entering illegally into our country. lou dobbs, the man at the forefront of this immigration problem before anyone is going to join me tonight along with tom holliman, former director of
8:01 pm
i.c.e. saudis confirming jamal khashoggi is dead. democrats go full-on conspiracy theory crazy. >> the reporting that jared kushner may have with u.s. intelligence delivered a hit list, an enemies list to saudi arabia and the prince may have acted on that, and one of the people he took action against is mr. khashoggi. trish: i have the intel for you on why democrats are getting so darn desperate and so darn scared 18 days from mid terms. "trish regan primetime" begins now. breaking tonight. this. look at that picture. this is what u.s. authorities fear could happen along our border were mexico.
8:02 pm
this is a stunning moment as thousands of people broke through a security gate to enter mexico. this caravan as we speak is on its way to the united states and mexico has failed to stop these people. the president is prepared to shut count border. he is prepared to send the u.s. military if necessary. at this hour president trump insists thee migrants will not be aloud into our country illegally. we'll hear from president trump who is on the ground in arizona. ahead of that, we go to hillary vaughn who is in mesa, arizona with more. >> voters in arizona have their eye on the border and immigration on their minds before they head to the pools on election day. the president said the mid-term election will be about this caravan head towards the
8:03 pm
u.s.-mexico border. that has krysten sinema and martha mcsally at odds. mcsalary says this is part of a constant stream of border crossing. >> now we have this caravan coming up. but we have little care vans coming every single day. this is insane. we need to unify as a country and stop this from happening. it's ridiculous. reporter: today in arizona the president threatening to stop the flow of cash to countries like he'll salvador and honduras if they don't stop the people marching towards our border. president trump: we give tens of millions of dollars to el salvador and honduras. i called mexico. i said we have lousy laws.
8:04 pm
i hope you won't let these people come through your you country and march 1,000 miles up through your country. but it's being stopped as of his moment by mexico. reporter: secretary of state mike pompeo just met with mexican president pena an nieto. so far four police officers have been yard. trish: the man who has been beating the drum, mr. lou dobbs, good to see you, sir. what happened? if they get to the border. mexico, they are promising they are going to stop them. but they didn't stop them from crossing over into mexico, and these people are continuing to march on. lou: 700 mexican law enforcement
8:05 pm
officials were shipped in there to do just that. the honduran nationals crashed through the fence it's a flimsy fence like most of the fence that stretches along our 2,000-mile long border with mexico. the mexican government has an opportunity. i believe andres manuel lopez obrador is a smart man, and so is pena nieto. they have agreed in substance to stop this onslaught as the president refers to it. while we cannot change our laws quickly enough because the democrats begin, the radical dimms want to see open borders. they want this scene for the mid-terms at our southern border rather than mexico's. everyone i talk to is very optimistic about the possibilities. trish: they want this? come on, lou.
8:06 pm
politics aside. who wants that? lou: who wants what? trish: who wants the scene -- lou: the democrats, dianne feinstein has created -- remember the 2008 law that she laid the foundation for this. she just got another bill introduced in march that will give you amnesty if you have a family unit within 100 miles of our border. the truth is the american people don't understand because they haven't been told adequately by the national left-wing media that this is a crisis. we have a million people who come into this country every year because of chain migration. we can't get e-verify processes so we can stop this job magnet for illegal immigrants across central america and mexico.
8:07 pm
trish: when i say i don't understand why any of them would want this. we both know we can't take on these responsibilities, not unless they want to say we are going to take over all of mexico and that sends us back to colonial days. lou: what responsibility? and who would take it on. trish: if we take all these people in? diandianne feinstein and otherse their way, thousands coming in, it cannot be done. you have only to look at sweden and other european countries to see what happened with those migrants coming in. we can't afford it and frankly in terms of the health of our country and the safety much our people, we can't handle it. lou: two developments in support of what you just said. the jail m.i.t. study shows the two previou previous administras
8:08 pm
were lying about the number of illegal immigrants. 10 million have come into this country over the course of the past decade through chain migration. we know also there are 22 to 30 million illegal immigrants in the country. not 11 million as the business interests, the corporatists want you to believe. our government isn't even counting these numbers to report to the american people. the number of family units that came in september was an unpublished number that was leaked. this is what we are dealing with and this is a government led by the man change america, reforming its government, and making every possibility a reality for american citizens. trish: common sense, lou. lou: it may be common sense. but it takes uncommon courage
8:09 pm
and leadership and luckily we have that man sitting in the oval office. trish: he's willing to shut down that border. you think he means what he says on that front? lou: i think he means what he says period. 98% of our audience support the president ordering the military to seal that border if mexico fail to the secure its borders. trish: the pressure is on mexico, i hope they live up to the task. it's good to see you. thank you, sir. democrats are calling for the abolishment of i.c.e. tom holliman the former acting director i.c.e. joins me. they want to get rid of you at a time when we are look at these care vans. as martha mcally rightly point
8:10 pm
out, a lot of these caravans are coming over the border every day in smaller groups. they want to get rid of i.c.e. what does that mean for the safety of american citizens. >> it's a continuation of open borders. i.c.e. arrests child predators and do terrorist investigation and drug trafficking investigation. we are the second largest in the joint terrorism task force. we do a lot to keep this country safe. the immigration part of it is part of their open borders agenda. if there is no i.c.e. in the use united states, and you get past border patrol, no one is looking for you. it's a continuation of the same
8:11 pm
open borders agenda democrats have had. trish: i looked through an i.c.e. report. if you have go through, there were so many people in there that had been arrested for crimes. in some cases violent crimes. then it came to whether they ever went to trial. they never did. they never did because somehow they had to get released and i.c.e. couldn't do a darn thing by the because of sanctuary city policies. how much are sanctuary cities at this moment hurting us, tom. >> sanctuary cities are un-american. the america i group in people respected law enforcement. a law enforcement officer was able to walk into a taxpayer funded county jail to talk to somebody who is in the country illegally and has been arrested for another crime. when the local jurisdiction
8:12 pm
arrested them and locked them in a jail cell. this is a threat to officer safety because they release them into the streets. it creates a situation for i.c.e. officers because we are going to find them. and instead of arresting them in the safety of the county jail, we have to knock on the door. you are letting bad people back into the community to reoffend in the very communities in which they live, which is the immigrant communities. you entice more people like the caravan to come to the united states. they will be protected from i.c.e. if they get to san francisco or chicago. trish: all of these families coming here -- >> no one wants to separate families. but the reason that was done is because of what's going on right
8:13 pm
now. if there is no consequence and deterrent to illegal activity, why would it stop. the 9th circuit ruled you cannot hold these families beyond 20 days. that is not time enough to see a judge. that's why. in three weeks they separated families, illegal crossing went down by 23%. they would have stuck with it, there wouldn't be a caravan today. as sad as it is we have to defend our border. the president needs to put it out that is an option we'll consider. if they do get to the bored. first of all there is an agreement when can do with mexico call it a safe third country. if they want to claim asylum -- trish: they don't want to claim tonight mexico. >> we have an agreement with
8:14 pm
canada and we can do an agreement with mexico. you are not in honduras. so wait in mexico until your hearing comes you have not the united states. the second thing we can do is i want to deplore i.c.e. to look for the family units that have been here for a couple years and have been ordered removed by a judge. i.c.e. needs to find them, put them on a plane and send them home. you have had four due process, it's time to go home. and it -- trish: tom, it's good to see you. i hope we get results very soon. straight ahead, democrats in texas under investigation for sending voting applications to people who aren't even u.s. citizens. if this is true, it's illegal,
8:15 pm

8:18 pm
you. trish: breaking news out of the middle east. saudi state media confirming
8:19 pm
jamal khashoggi was killed in their consulate in turkey. reporter: saudi arabia confessed jamal khashoggi is dead and he died inside that consulate in turkey. the kingdom has been denying the death of the mission columnist. now state media reporting there was a quarrel inside the consulate where khashoggi was killed. today the kingdom arrested 18 people. 15 of the men inside that consulate. powerful figures inside the government have been fired. one close advisor to mohammad bin salman. the report stopped short of saying the crown prince knew anything about the operation instead saying the powerful underlings launched this operation on their own. donald trump says he'll respond,
8:20 pm
but knowing we need saudi arabia as an ally. president trump: saudi arabia is annal life ours. that's why this is so sad. you look at what goes on in iran and the viciousness of that regime. saudi arabia invested in the jobs. we have to take all these things into account. reporter: the white house releasing a statement saying the united states acknowledges the announcement from the kingdom of saudi arabia. we'll continue to closely follow the international investigation into this tragic incident and advocate for the justice that is timely transparent and in accordance with all due process. lindsey graham tweeted to say i'm sceptical is an understatement.
8:21 pm
now 17 days after the disappearance we finally have the saudi version of events. back to you. trish: let's get back to some of the breaking headlines coming out right here at home. tonight democrats in texas are under investigation for mailing out voter registration forms to non-citizens. yes. you heard me. non-citizens. people who are not citizens of the united states of america. democrats want them to vote. of course. right? as long as you vote left. texas governor greg abbott announce an investigation saying there will be consequences if this is found to be a crime as there should be. but what this really tells you is that democrats are getting desperate. attorney and democratic strategist and his ra booth. what is the saying in illinois,
8:22 pm
you vote early and often. in texas you vote whether you are american or not. >> the public interest legal foundation is the one that brought this attention to officials in texas and they said they have seen thousands of people who have later admitted to voting that were illegal immigrants in new jersey, and pennsylvania. governor abbott says he's on this. and the best way into sure nothing like this happens again is to follow through and if they broke the law to make sure the punishment fits the crime. trish: are you seeing signs of desperation? >> immigration is an issue in the mid terms. the "new york times" ran an interesting article saying the center for american progress, this liberal think tank, sent a memo out to democrat candidates saying to avoid the immigration
8:23 pm
issue. that it was a losing issue for them. even in clinton districts and competitive swing states. trish: are you trying to stay away from immigration as a candidate? >> here is the thing. ted cruz is extremely unpopular. he has -- he's up. >> the state is extremely red and he's dig and he's trying to catch up with beto o'rourke. is there not a single statewide democratic representative. not a single statewide democrat member. every statewide elected official is republican. cruz is unpopular. his own party doesn't like him. now in a state like texas that's so red you have to have donald trump campaign for him. trish: donald trump is helping a
8:24 pm
lot of candidates all over the country. >> i get it if he goes to maine or california. send your money, i love it. >> the people trying to make the texas race an actual race are the national media who have been doing the glossy froa profiles on beto. they keep trying to make beto happen and he's not going to happen. he's going to win handily. >> now you are spending money in texas instead of turning texas into a fundraising state, you are spending money there. trish: democrats are shying away from that because i think as lou and i were discussing at the beginning of this show, common sense will tell you, you can't have open borders. so given that you are looking at 4,000 people approaching our
8:25 pm
southern border at this very moment. what does your party say that will make people across america feel safe? >> we have laws in this country. trish: the laws aren't working. >> you have the house, you had the senate, you have the president, now you have the supreme court. pats laws and enforce the laws. you don't do anything because the republican party is bad at governing. the gop. the gop. trish: the gop right now. >> the gop. trish: hasn't done anything despite the fact that you have an economy at 4.2%. >> thank you president obama. trish: don't give me that. >> i am giving you that. he saved the economy. >> trump tried to solve the immigration issue.
8:26 pm
a majority of the americans are with him when it comes to border security. they don't like lawlessness. americans were we accept tough to the message. a majority of americans are with him on this issue. trish: democrats have not tried to solve the problem. you look at what was considered a compromise bill in the house. not a single democrat voted for that bill. >> it was lost by the freedom caucus. thank you so much for handing over th -- over the southwest ts by all naighter latino. trish: hillary clinton may be considering a run in 2020.
