he has hurt our community tremendously here in south texas. it's because of him that the majority of the american people right now are hurting tremendously living paycheck to paycheck. the majority of americans right now are making serious sacrifices and are not able to spend family time with their children. why? because they have to work. and right now it feels like all we do is work and work and work. we are not able to enjoy life. why? because everything is so expensive and we are not able to take that family vacation. that is our top priority. securing the border, strengthening the economy. that's what is hurting our community more than anything. >> i'm asking about the language that donald trump uses and i will ask one more time. >> and i'm talking about the actions. >> i ask you about the language because you once represented a district where over 90% are latino but there are many mixed status families just in the rio grande mixed status families just in the rio grande pl., coming from families were at least one person is undocumented so

i'm a member of the south texas alliance of cities. a group of mayors from south texas communities. we work in partnership with the federal government, local law enforcement, and nonprofits to address the challenges created by the border issue. we understand the complexities, diversity of thought on possible solutions, and the compelling need to ensure immigration is not a wedge issue. as local leaders, we are responsible for our communities. our safety and well-being. we cannot play politics with this. i am proud of the work we have done in brownsville to help people entering the country. our approach, called the brownsville model, is as compassionate and humane as it is efficient. it prioritizes dignity and care. for two years in a row, brownsville has been named one of the 20 safest cities in america. mr. president, all of us here are overworked and understaffed. in brownsville we have assisted over 240,000 migrants since 2021. our population is just below 200,000. from el paso to san antonio to brownsville we all need help. so do our federal partners. we cannot afford to wait. w

guest: buying south texas district, and i present about -- i represent about 80% hispanic democrats. losing some of that support. they feel he is not strong on border security. a lot of us on the border down in. my father was born in mexico. what happened was he came in, be illegal resident -- became a legal resident. it took years. but now a lot of the people who went through that process are seeing people jump the line. that is distressing to a lot of hispanic democrats. host: us about the recent death of three migrants, a female adult and two children, in eagle pass. you have blamed those deaths on governor abbott. why? guest: when the state kicked out the border patrol -- keep in mind that the border patrol under federal law is the agency that allows us to secure the border morass -- the border, arrest people who are here illegally. they came in without telling the local government when they were doing. they came in without telling border patrol. they kicked bordeol out of that area. they also have some trucks and other monitoring equipment. these trucks are vehicles that have eq

even in 2020 when the south of texas went and voted for trump, everybody came back aligned. except for district 15. district 15 at that time had been gerrymandered to be a republican district anyway. regardless it was going to be a republican. and, so, one of the things that we have found is because that headline screamed that latinos were moving rights, we saw a massive disinvestment, underinvestment come from the midterm election. in fact, if you look at -- who i would say is the most nonpartisan with our true north that allows us to better inform our work, from 2018, the midterm election of 2018 until 2022, we sell a diminished return on latino turnout by 37%. 37%. if you looked at who did participate among the latino cohort, it was voters over the age of 40 disproportionately republican. it was because the republicans got the memo. the headline says they do less and they actually do. they internalize a memo even though none of them the way they were behaving came to terms. and they disinvest it. i can tell you in a place like texas, texas went on the dead last voter stat

and we are seeing tonight generational change in south texas.he results tonight, this decisive victory should shake the democrat establishment to its core. i have spent months in the rio grande valley, visiting small businesses, praying in local churches, and let me tell you what i learned, our hispanic communities are not just weaving -- leaving the democrat party, they are coming home to conservative values they never left. they understand something the liberal elites never will. there is nothing progressive about open borders. there is nothing compassionate about chaos. and there is nothing that they know -- latino about letting criminals roam free. and just for good measure, we are not tacos. we are small business owners who know that lower taxes means more jobs. , where parents who know that secure borders mean safe neighborhoods. and where families you know that texas energy independence means prosperity for everyone. and i found this same awakening to common sense everywhere i traveled. i saw the eyes of texas mothers, tired of being lect

in texas we never had until now in the history of texas a republican congressman from south texas andhe is a latino. we never had members of the texas house of representatives from south texas, and the border crisis and energy issue is driving that so the democrats have problems with this emerging political power of the latino communities who are entrepreneurial prophase, profamily and pro-military and in the case of texas and arizona strongly concerned what happening with communities on the border. stuart: would you say if donald trump gets, say, 30% to 40% of the hispanic vote he wins and biden loses? >> absolutely. in 2004, george w. bush got 44% of the latino vote and won reelection in a tough year. stuart: let's get the news on the border, the supreme court said it is okay for authorities in texas to arrest illegal migrants. a few hours later an appeals court said hold on, we will hear an appeal to the texas law so is all on hold. you are a texas guy, what happens from here. >> the decision by the fifth circuit was a panel of three and the vote was 2 to 1, the fifth circuit is a

why would a greater percentage in some counties in south texas, for instance, turn out more for trump. >> that's a great question. >> and thank you for that. you know, i did-- was very central to the independent expenditure effort towards george w. bush in 2000 and 2004. i also incidentally, in full disclaimer, i managed the campaign for the campaign for governor and on the lincoln project in 2020. thank you. [applause] >> and i say that because i have literally seen how both parties approach this with their candidates, with their appeals, with their fund raising, with their infrastructure and they are very different although i would suggest, i agree with maria teresa that both parties are really missing the point. so much so that i wrote a book about it. so the answer, i think, you have to understand that the-- and i think we are keenly aware the republican party 2016 is foundationally is different from before. i think that liz cheney and her father just announced they're supporting kamala harris. >> as am i. >> that was the guy that the democrats used to consider the darth vader and
