. >> the problem is, as mark steyn likes to say, eventually you run out of neighborhoods. >> tucker: aughs] totally true.ua the other assumption that drives me crazy, mark krikorian, is that when advocates for illegal immigration say we will grant amnesty to x number of people, that that's the actual number. and your study suggestss the real numbers are much bigger. >> clearly much bigger. it'll over a period of years but if, for instance, congress juste amnestied to the people who have this daca amnesty that obama illegally gave out. 700,000 people. we are talking at least a million and a half people over the next number of years that would be coming in after them. but that's actually the narrowest possibility. senator durbin and senator lindsey graham have a bill that would not just look at those young people who are covered by this daca amnesty but would open a whole new can of worms from scratch. >> tucker: we admit aboutre i think about 1.1 million legal immigrants a year. and that's the number i always go with, but that's not the real number, it sounds like. >> in a sense it is,

in the meantime, mark steyn is an author and columnist and he joins us tonight. mark, what do you make of all this? >> it's beginning to remind me of o.j. hunting for the real killers. the wider she looks for the real killers of her campaign, the more you suspect, and in fact the more your viewersed confirmed that the answer is closer to home, considerably closer to home. >> tucker: that's a perfect analogy! what is the effect of the democratic party? not that i'm a reliable democratic boater, it's reallyth not my business, but i'm a watcher of the stuff and i'm thinking if you are the democrats, trump is having problems, you want to make the most you can of that. into the calculation comes hillary clinton, this ghost from the past to talk about herself. >> i think it's actually very revealing. if you look at bernie, for example. bernie is plowing on now to try and introduce socialized health care in america because to him, american health care isn't wrecked enough so he would like to take it to the next level. h bernie, in fairness, whatever one believes about --

mark steyn is the best-selling author and a frequent guest on the show and he joins us now foa reactiono all that. mark, i don't know if you sawn that segment with the governor, it's hard to know exactly what he was talking about but he seemed to say that under no circumstances would the national guard be seizing anyone's arms. >> it was a fantastically obfuscatary interview despite your best efforts.y it does make the point -- by the way, if i was a resident of the u.s. virgin islands, i would not be altogether reassured by that performance because i think, as we've seen in the last couple of weeks, the difference between what happened with hurricane harvey and what happened with hurricane katrina is actually the confidence and competence of the local officials there on the ground. i would hope that when he has more pressing aspects of this phenomenon to attend to that he is slightly more clear on what his intention was and the reason for it. >> tucker: i covered hurricane katrina, i was there right after the storm and the then-mayor ofr that city, who i think is now in jail, confiscat

what she's saying is you are a deeply shallow man, mark steyn.ou are not smart enough to dig into complex policy she proposed. if i actually read her campaign book, her infrastructure plan among many others, the single largest collection of banalities i've ever seen. there was no substance there. if entries trying to convince us that we missed it because we are not as sophisticated as she has. >> in fact, in fairness to donald trump, e may be the reality show candidate, as she says, but he stood up on that first day when he went on about mexico is not sending us the best people, they are sending us all these rapists and murderers. he introduced the issue into the campaign which was immigration and the wall. so you can mark the joke candidate but actually one of the things that prompted that was incredibly useful is that he destroyed all the boring, tedious conventions of professional american politics that resulted in the year 2016 in one party offering the wife of the previous president and the other party offering the son and the brother of two

what mark steyn does, he's up in vermont today. rk right now, mark. >> yeah. it's the week i hated in new york because it's hard to get a hotel and i always hate it when you get booked into a lousy hotel with the z list dictators like castro and all this guys. i think, in fact, trump at one point offered to let goin him pitch his tent at his golf club because they wouldn't let him pitch it in central park because i was pitching a tent there. it's the worst week to be in new york. it's terrible. ainsley: well, i'm sure you were watching football or something else. i'm sure you weren't watching the hollywood elitest offer the emmys. but we want to show a little clip of just the attack on this president and this administration, of course, the actors and actresses went to the microphone -- it was just ridiculous. watch this, and we'll talk about it. >> if he had won an emmy, i bet he wouldn't have run for president. the president has complained repeatedly that the emmys are rigged. because unlike the presidency, emmys go to the winner o

williams with kat timpf and mark steyn. this is "the fox news specialists" ."tisanship and dealmaking are suddenly in vogue in washington. this afternoon the senate passed a bill sponsored by president trump and democratic leaders chuck schumer and nancy pelosi raising the debt ceiling and funding the government into december. along with devoting $15 billion for hurricane harvey relief. the house is expected to pass the bill quickly and president trump isn't stopping there. also agree with senator schumer to pursue a plane that would eliminate debt ceiling votes altogether. administration officials are advancing the new shift in strategy. >> we are very happy we have a deal. the president's priority was to make sure we had funding for harvey and to make sure we raise the debt limit to pay for it. we have accomplished that. the best part about it as this clears out the next 90 days for us to focus on important things. we have the funding for harvey. we are focused on tax reform. that's going to be the big priority for the next 90 days. we are going to work with

mark steyn is here, best selling author. what do you think?clapper is a liar and in many cases he would have been prosecuted for perjury over some of the things he said in recent years. i'm not minded to believe him on this. the fact is, paul manafort has been wiretapped by the u.s. government since 2014. >> neil: 2014. >> yeah. that's almost three years. he's never -- never mind convicted, he's never been charged with anything. so we have a situation in a supposedly free seven governing civilized society if the government can wiretap you for three years and never have to bring a charge or find any crime that you've committed. >> neil: i get different reads on whether it was a ukraine connection and all of that. certainly whether people knew who he was or not at the time when he ascended to the role of campaign manager. you had to think that there were conversations, you know, hey, we have these wiretaps. and they could very well involve the guy running for president of the united states. >> yeah, the fisa court thing is a joke. they rubber st

todd: one of the funniest we have on the fox news channel is mark steyn. he weighed in on this. om general lee is racist to dr. suess is racist. i looked up the piece she referenced in the journal of social justifiable librarians or whatever it is, and it is incredibly moronic. the piece argues that the cat in the hat's b bow tie is meant to be evidence occasion of 19th century racist menstrual shows. cartoon characters who wear bow ties, porky pig, donald duck. yogi bear doesn't wear a bow. he wear as necktie like me. his sidekick boo boo wear as bow tie. that's nothing to do with strengthen industrial shows. we are making ourselves a society too stupid to survive. abby: tucker's faces everything and speaks for all of us right now. if you are going to say that green eggs or ham or cat in the hat is racist propaganda, you probably want to make sure you don't have any photos floating around of you literally snuggling the cat in the hat and dr. seuss with a big smile on your face. it takes out any credibility you might have had. pete: she admits she was a former racist because that
