tv   Sunday Night in America With Trey Gowdy  FOX News  January 26, 2025 6:00pm-7:00pm PST

6:00 pm
i want to watch this carefully. the president of the united states and taking out iran's nuclear sites and i believe him because the president of the united states said israel should be able to destroy hamas. i believe reporter: the president of the united states has never been a support of a two state solution especially since october 7. i believe him. things are moving and keep an eye on the middle east and europe and the rest of the world as well. i'll see you next time on life, liberty and levin.
6:01 pm
taylor: good evening and thank you for joining us, i'm trey gowdy and it's sunday night in america. president donald trump hit the ground running on immigration and sent troops to the boarder and unlawful immigrants home and ice acts in action across the country and president trump is keeping his promise relating to deportations. all persons born in the u.s. and going for the restriction thereof and are citizens and no one envisioned people flying to the u.s. to have a california hotel only to impetition for them and going to join them. could take expansive view and going for that and the view and couple chain migration ever since. the supreme court may be clear but the constitution is not and the court can't and does change
6:02 pm
it is collective mind from time to time. trump's executive order was khat challenged immediately in court and this will be resolved by the court or by another amendment. joining us now is former dhs assistant secretary and forming acting'director john than fahey. juror jonathan fahey. >> i don't understand big city mayors keeping them in the city and for the life of me i can't understand the rational of fighting to keep people that cross the border unlawfully committed another crime in the united states. what am i missing? >> this always stuns me that they've maintained this position but it really just shows how radical the democratic party is on this immigration issue. we said this for years and years, they've invited all of these people to come here and
6:03 pm
the game is they want them all to become citizens so they don't want to do anything to deter people from coming but just shows that the democratic party is controlled by the far left and certainly doesn't serve the citizens and i've never heard any serious argument about why so many convicted or arrested oval window serious crime could stay in the country and broke the law to get here. there's nothing in the interest of the citizens but the interest in the democratic party plus the interest in your standing within the democratic party that defied on this issue. trey: must not be interested in winning elections because that's not going to be a winning election issue. the border was decided by voters as top issue and the new president talking to sean hannity and we'll talk afterwards. >> look at what's gone on at the boarder and what's going to happen to crime. the crime that's going to happen but i think we got there just in the nick of time terrorists in our country by the thousands. we have murder ntsb country by
6:04 pm
the tens of thousands. why would somebody say that open borders are good when jails and mental institutions from other countries and gang members off the toughest city in the world being brought to the united states of america and emptied out border or immigration like the popular vote and electoral college. >> some of them have to their credit and voting for the laken riley act and that should have been about 100 votes for the act and arrested for that act and kicked out and here illegally and seems to be a split in the democratic party and does seem like the minority position is
6:05 pm
for national security and overwhelming going to be open boarders and going for that and president trump is exactly right and something bad is going to happen for the people laken riley and saddest thing and disgraceful things about this is when there's something that could have been prevented by laken riley is and the biden administration with the open boarders going for them on public safety and a young women that's dead and caused it. trey: there's been litigation over it and wants to pop back up. what do you think the court will do if the president's executive order makes it is way through lower courts, appellate court withs this issue that if you are born here and stuck for life. what will they do with the
6:06 pm
issue? >> it's a close call and chance for senator mike lee talking about and maybe they'll say congress needs to define what it means to be subject of the jurisdiction of the united states and could be the middle ground and president trump is exactly right pressing this issue and your point is it's right too and it was never intended for somebody to come here and game the system and get citizenship for themselves and their family. it was specifically to a deal with the freed slaves. the supreme court take ago more critical look at it than before and even however it works out, president trump brought the issue to the attention of the american people and looking at 250,000 a year are becoming american st.s because of this this and nobody in terms of public opinion supporting this and going to support not allowing it and it's a very good political issue and they've been moved to amendment the constitution and doesn't make
6:07 pm
any sense and certainly not in the interest of the american citizens that are gaming our immigration system this way. >> i don't think they had airplanes flying to california and staying in hotel rooms to give birth and in 1868 and jonathan, thank you administer always for joining us and loaning us your expertise on a sunday night. >> thank you. >> refusing to take your people back, coming to unlawfully punished and donald trump similar pose ago 25% tariff on columbia. after that country refused two deportation flights and the nation's president appears to be backing down but other countries can expect the same. columbia is not an enemy and our two countries partnered in the past and present but that's sort of trump's point. friend and foe alike on notice. in less than a week.
6:08 pm
february 1 to be exact, canada and mexico seeing 25% tariffs for china and expect an additional 10% on top of existing tariffs. the message is clear. >> my message to every business in the world is simple, make your product in america and we'll give you among the lowest taxes of any nation. if you don't make your product in america, that's your prerogative, very simply you'll have to pay a tariff trey: will he allow company time to make the move or make allowances for companies who have to source materials from outside of the u.s. will he make allowances for companies who find the u.s. regulatory apparatus for being there and it's negotiating tool and are tariffs inflationary and americans willing to pay more for manufacturing is and what
6:09 pm
impact will that have on u.s. companies on states like my own who export. kayla rigs is the cohost of the big money show and joining us now. welcome, taylor. start with the big one. will tariffs drive up the cost of goods and will they impact companies or states. who export. >> the democratic senator came to him and shot additional 10% tariffs from chinese goods and mean we're paying 10% more and it's a bit more complicated than that. there are about 4% in currency adjustment when is china does that and they may respond and low eric price of goods and china wants to maintain that market share. it is not a direct, you raise tariffs by 10% in american consumers and automatically 10%
6:10 pm
and more complicated than that and davos last weekend and world economic forum and hearing from jamie dimon and that's the largest bank in the country and it's really interesting. americans should be paying a bit more and one time price adjustment for the cost of securing our border for national security, for making sure we can have antibiotics in the country and not dependent on covid and hoping china would open up their ports and ship them to us. now, i think that's really hard, trey, for americans to feel that given that on average we've seen the price of everything go up about 20% in the last four years and that's the point that one small tiny price adjustment during the cost of fair trade and cost of making sure our partners are playing equal with us and that might be something americans might be able to digest and talking about regulation to get into that and
6:11 pm
going for cost of goods can fall and it's much more nuanced than tariffs or attacks. trey: i want to follow up on that and assume we own the company and you're the president and i'm thes vice president and we go to the president and we love to manufacture here and regulatory apparatus and it litigation cost and costing too much to do business. what's the response? >> cut the rules for every one he enacted and that's regulation going for them on the red tape. cut down all the extra red tape and cost of doing business is loader than easier for me to open up a plant here maybe in your state that the great exporter going to buy that stuff
6:12 pm
from china. i think again it's much more new answered and, look, we've learned a lot of lessons from covid and five years after covid and we know depending on china for supply chains does not work and went to vietnam and thailand and let's talk about this president bringing things back to america. yes, it might take time and will not happen tomorrow f. you cut regulation and encourage and provide incentives, i'm confident that american ceos want to do good here and they want to make sure they're hiring good americans here and giving those good jobs here. they don't want to go overseas and they're doing it because there's incentive to do that and going to bring jobs back. trey: are there going to be retaliatory tariffs if president
6:13 pm
trump follows through on his promise? put ago 25% tariff on america and turning around planes and getting them back in and they know that these tariff seven if it is a negotiating tool they're so harmful and i'm not exactly sure if we impose tariffs and they automatically will do regulatory ones coming back. retaliatory ones coming back that and see how it goes. key issues and former speaker of the house kevin mccarthy weighs in next on sunday night in america.
6:14 pm

trey: welcome back to sunday night in america. president donald j. trump waste nod time and granted pardons and clearances and pulled security details for officials targeted by iran for death. you could argue going more than a week than bide anne donovan a term. he did some things that were universally praised by visiting western north carolina and carnage of when and water for wind and fire and going for them tahin done outstanding work
6:20 pm
leading to discoveries that no one else found and going for them and other igs failed to live up to the challenges of their job and law does require notifying congress and going under fire. >> they didn't know what the hell they were doing and what they've done for this country and the open boarders. message could not be more clear, america's decline is over. american decline is over and left that all over the world and we're not laughed at. trey: the leavitt left is working for them on the day and anger for awhile. >> day one trying to shred
6:21 pm
foundational documents. >> we don't have to listen to him. it's illegal. we don't have to treat this seriously. it's a joke. >> idea that the president would seek to undermine the constitution with executive order is an assault on the basic idea that we live under the rule of law. trey: we have former speaker of the house, kevin mccarthy and happy birthday by the way. starting with north carolina. helene left a path of destruction and going to give folks hope and help. your part of the world was devastate #-d as well and you

6:24 pm
funding now and wants to get on with his agenda and needs to deal with the debt ceiling and for the american public, they have to understand this is like capital to get going and doge and saving ands tax bill and off the table for funding bills to be done and get ceiling waved going forward and he wants to talk about going to the people and need it had and getting all that done by march and make sure it doesn't slow his agenda and get cabinet confirmed in the senate and he's doing a very good job and holding them in and feet to the fire and getting a new person each and every day almost.
6:25 pm
trey: mr. trump, we'll speak to the house republican conference and what should he tell them because there's a narrow margin and no one in the world knows better than you with the narrow margin and instagram stars that served in the house. what should his message be because he's only got two years and a narrow majority. what should he tell them? they have two years to make this happen. since president trump has been sworn in, the majority has even gotten smaller because michael waltz is national security adviser and they're going till april 1 and no room for error or people to pout or fight.
6:26 pm
bigger than the republicans in the house and senate and, trey, for the first time in modern history, the majority in the senate is bigger than in the house. when you go to do reconciliation, remember, article one, section 7, you're a great attorney. all tax reform starts in the house and focus on going forward. making sure the board service connected secure, making sure they get energy to build and make sure the price of gas comes down. they get upset and collapses upon president trump is the leader and he laid out the agenda and people need to work together to make sure they get it done. trey: he helped them get elected

at mexico particularly as it relates to the cartels? >> obviously cartels are the first thing 7:00 o'clocking to mind and certainly not the only thing that come to mind and china playing a important part in helping the cartels and we see the precursor chemicals coming from china and that comes from the boarder and trafficking issue and human trafficking issue and look, that's a renewable resource that the cartels are unveiling and she themselvesand they're in the nas business and it's gotten worse because of fentanyl and they're in the human trafficking business and because they've made so much money and images you're sewing on the screen should tell the american people that, look, they're much more fist skated than they used to be and fighting adversary now and it was an appropriate designation for president to say let's designate the cartels as terrorist organization sos we can bring the full weight of the united states to that threat.

trey: welcome back to sunday night in america. presidential pardon powers are plenary and only limitations are state crimes, impeach.future crime asks having power doesn't always mean that and there's a time and place for pardons and justice system depends on fairness and even handedness and portionalty and predictability. going for them and it's the local pardons after pardoning and twice convicted son going for scarlet on the line and hunter biden does not and makes absolutely no sense at all.
6:55 pm
>> i was given the option to pardon everybody and going for them and i'm not going to pardon anybody and can't do anything wrong and he went around giving anybody pardons and that was a funny thing. maybe the sad thing. he didn't give himself a pardon. look at it and all had to do with him. trey: president trump again, his second term and also issuing a pardon for offenders ranging from january 6 prisoners to cops convicted in a deadly hit and run and he also have architect
6:56 pm
kecaurbahn. deputy aj and senior doj officials and who do you think is advising the president on pardons and why pardon the leader of the proud boys but not jeff thoratin berry and quickly about that and white house can communicate. it's more on paper than anything and he wills so i think doj typically gets involved with more profound pardons and on the more controversial ones and not sure that the president often
6:57 pm
involves doj and being surprised if president biden involved doj and pardoning his family and going there and as far as president trump is concerned on top and haven't been confirmed yet and possible he wants to do that and he did and doing that and it's constitutional power. trey: it is his power and looks at jeff th thorntonberry's case. ross was convicted in part of dealing drugs and his sentence was commuted after 11 years and i'm trying to square that penalty for some drug dealers and others and i'm not saying russ should have served double life sentences but he got that after a jury trial but 11 years versus the death penalty is a pretty wide disparity. >> yeah, going back to this constitutional power that the president haves ask they enjoy this going to be wide discretionary power going to
6:58 pm
