what we're hearing from the associated press, one of the organizers that has been with this group, he has been with this group for weeks now, and according to what she's saying to the associated press, they went through this movement of hundreds of migrants towards the border to bring attention to the very topic itself. so they wanted a little bit of hey, look at how bad this is. what do you make of that and is that the right thing to do? >> well, let me take a step back and describe what's happening from the administration side, which is complete and utter chaos. and this is something, if there's been anything constant in the trump administration regarding immigration policy, it's chaos. i'm even thinking back to the muslim bans a couple of weeks after president trump took office. and with regards to what is happening on the border here, this is something that is a very complicated issue, but the administration is making it even more complicated in doing these haphazard shutdowns of the bordner trying to say they're not going to take asylum seekers, and then the courts come in and ra

the associated press . alan, i want to show you a tactic used at the border before you decide whether it is usual or unusual. >> how did you feel when you saw the images of the women and children running from the tear gas? >> i have to say, why are they there, first of all. the tear gas is a minor form of the tear gas itself. it's very safe. the ones that were suffering to a certain extent were the people putting it out there, but it's very safe. but you say why is a parent running up into an area where they know the tear gas is forming and they know it's going to be formed and they're running up with a child? in some cases they're not the parents. these are the people they call grabbers. they grab a child because they think they'll have a certain status having a child. you know, you have certain advantages in terms of our crazy laws that frankly congress should be changing.

chris sherman from the soer associated press. >>> i want to bring in our panel, aaron banco. great to have you with us. let me begin with you, if i may. what is the significance of what we were talking about earlier, this attempted deal between the government of mexico, the incoming government of mexico and the trump administration? when you juxtapose it with the images coming out right now of the border between the u.s. and mexico? >> for all the talk we have of domestic constitutional crises, we are now seeing a crisis of international law, international treaties, international convention. in closing this border and denying any access to refugees or asylum seekers to even be heard, the united states is setting itself up to have a claim launched against it in the international criminal court. this action taken today of closing the world's busiest border goes against the convention on refugees and their rights in which it had clearly stated that any country that is signed on to the convention which the united states has owes asylum seekers and refugees administrative access,

jonathan lemire of the associated press writes it this way. as polls showed for months that the democrats were likely to flip the house, covert work began in the west wing to prepare for a new more contested chapter of the trump presidency, though no formal war room was established. senior aides convened meetings to map out the administration strategy for combatting newly emboldened democrats. trump himself at times took part in informal conversations about the future. we are fortunate to be joined by jonathan lemire, white house reporter for the associated press. >>> so, two things are -- well, one thing is true. the president enjoys having a foil, an enemy. but does he have a sense of how they're going to come at him? >> he's starting to. all our reporting suggests that he was slow to grasp what a threat this is to his presidency. but in recent weeks, last couple months, as the campaign really accelerated into the homestretch, he started to recognize what it would mean if the democrats captured at least one houses of congress. and, yes, ther
