things to say. >> you should work for this. social media pages, we asked what you think this proposal and a lot of you are saying it is a good idea. this way it will keep them honest, might be a burden for honest people but to many people taking advantage of the old system. nick essentially, no one is supposed to be on government assistance for life and if you are on drugs you have 0 chance of getting off it. jen says it is about time if people have to be drug tested to work, it is only -- >> in local markets we work with food charities that help young people, people that desperately need this help. you don't want people abusing the system and this works to prevent the abuse. >> california governor jerry brown just blinked. the liberal lawmakers sending the national guard to the border but is this a sign the sanctuary

2:30 am
congress may have carried the day. devon nunez really wanted access to a 2-page document showing early justifications for the trump russia probe. we still don't know what that memo contains. >> a step in the right direction. there are still reductions in it, folks in the department of justice, unredacted things, members of congress elected by this country can't see it. >> we have contempt including the director of the fbi. >> the house majority, outside the boundaries most of us would view as appropriate, not in any
