that he mentioned pam bondi, former attorney general. pax bondi was actually named in the new york attorney general's dealings with the trump foundation, which is being dissolved partially because it had a lot of wrongdoing, including making a donation to pam bondi's campaign and claiming it was somebody else with a similar name in a different state. actually misfiling the whole thing. so the idea pam bondi, who was involved in being a recipient of wrongdoing by the trump organization was at the white house today. just food for thought. the other thing on the president's plate is the shutdown. there are still no signs of a concrete deal between congress and the white house to avoid having a large part of the federal government shut down at the end of this week. a short time ago, white house press secretary sarah huckabee sanders was asked if president trump would accept less than the $5 billion he wants for his promised border wall. >> we have a lot of ideas. we're disappointed they have yet to vote on something and pass something. so wh

. >>> joining us now with reaction, florida attorney general pam bondi and arizona congressman andy bigs. congressman, it wasn't just 2013 but all the way back to 2006, then senator schumer, obama, biden and clinton were all voting in favor of constructing a barrier on the mexican border. frankly, not much has changed in the interim 12 years, except the problem has gotten a lot worse. are people like schumer suffering acute amnesia or is it just petty partisan politics? they can't stand to give trump something he wants even though it is the same thing they have long wanted. >> yes. i am not sure how sincere they were in 2006. i can tell you what they are sincere about today is that they just don't like president trump. they do not want him to get a victory. they want to impeach the guy. so there is no way they want to give him a political victory right before they are going to open up impeachment hearings and further investigations on president trump. that's what this is. they are willing to put politics above national security. this has always been a national security issue. it will con

also used the charity's money to make a $25,000 political donation to florida attorney general pam bondipaid over 150 grand to resolve a lawsuit over a prize for a hole-in-one contest at trump national golf club, and, in a handwritten note, trump directed that $100,000 in foundation money go to settle legal claims against trump's mar-a-lago resort. a handwritten note? it's so rare to see misappropriation of funds with that personal touch. ( laughter ) w, as part of the court deal, the trump foundation has agreed to sell off all their assets and donate the proceeds to an actual charity. those assets? just three items: two hideous portraits ,and a denver broncos helmet signed by tim tebow. wow, a souvenir of a famous, but flawed, flash in the pan, who, despite being loved by evangelicals, fell from grace. also, tim tebow's helmet!

, trump used the foundation to settle his own legal problems and after she got a 25,000 check, pam bondy dropped an investigation into trump university. give ago foundation political -- to begin with. no expense too small or too ridiculous. it appears the foundation paid $7 in 1989 to register the then 11-year-old donald trump jr. for the boy scouts. the foundation paid for that. $30,000 for a pair of portraits ff trump, including that one there on the left. beautiful. the foundation has to sell those paintings off along with a signed tim tebow helmet that cost $12,000. he spent $42,000 in charity money, at a combined $975. trump did not donate a dime to the foundation between 2008 and 2015. he didn't need to. other donors stepped up, included vince and linda mcmahon. when trump became president he appointed mcmahon. cohost of woic, good to have you back. in the filing from the attorney general, this was not a foundation that broke rules. she's saying root and branch it was not actually a foundation. >> the evidence she's presented suggests it looked nothing like any foundation you've he

a number of stakeholders were here today including pam bondi and parents of students that were killedy coming together in an effort to find solutions. obviously that is very important. >> dana: the justice department had a major ruling on guns today. what was that? >> the trump administration moving to officially ban bump stocks. you may not be familiar with what a bump stock is. effectively what it does, it takes what you would call a semiautomatic weapon and it makes it able to frankly fire like an automatic firearm. so the devices will be banned under a federal law that will prohibit machine guns making them illegal to possess in march. the ruling in part, the bump stock-type devices covered by this rule were nonexistence prior to the effective date of the statute and will be prohibited when this rule becomes effective. under the final rule, current possessors of these devices will be required to destroy the devices or abandon them at an atf office prior to the effective date of the rule. bump stocks were used in the devastating massacre in las vegas where a gunman in a hotel suite

2016 campaign in the primaries, and the campaign contribution earlier to president oba earlier to pam bondieneral of florida which they lied and denied about what it was. and all of this shows that trump had no loyalty whatsoever to the law and to the entity he used this organization purely to advance his interests to pay bills that he owed and to take care of himself. that is conduct for which other people have been prosecuted and imprisoned. >> i was going to actually follow up by asking you this currently is a civil matter, but could it turn into a criminal one? >> well, barbara underwood, the attorney general of new york in her referral letter last june said her office believes this is a criminal matter and referred it to the federal election commission and to the irs, and there's no reason to believe that the federal government is going to prosecute the president, certainly at the moment. but under new york law, the attorney general does not have criminal authority unless it's given to her, and so at d.c. report we encourage people to call governor cuomo and tied up his phones for as l

there was also a $25,000 contribution in 2013 to the attorney general of florida, pam bondi, who then did not join an investigation into trump university that was being conducted by state's attorney general. now, look, is this selective, is this unfair, is this political in some way this is now being investigated? sure it is, chris, but this is an example of what's happening to donald trump across the board. he operated on the margins for years and this happened for decades and it wasn't investigated because, look, it's hard to enforce the law on these things. there are not enough irs to look into this stuff. now that he's president everything he's done is coming under scrutiny and you can extrapolate this to his businesses and whole russia investigation. he's now held to a high standard and unfortunately he doesn't seem prepared to meet it. and the real question is, does it become a criminal matter? this new york attorney general is very serious about investigating donald trump. >> bob, it's a civil suit now. what's the likelihood it becomes a criminal matter? >> it is going to becom

. >> pam bondy, who's at the white house today. >> i believe right now. so yeah, when you look at this and look at that, then the allegations involving charities and contributions made during the iowa caucus, essentially holding an event say woog eing going to get donations then providing them as part of campaign events and having the make america great again logo while you have the charitable website on the top. >> he was -- he skipped the iowa debate. he said, i'm in the going to go to the iowa debate because i'm angry at fox news for not being nice to me. maybe he didn't like a host. he held this veterans event. i'm going to raise money for veterans. he raised all this money. he promised he would match it with some of his own funds. then when reporters pressed the campaign, where did that money go, has he distributed that money, did donald trump match the money as he said he would, they were suddenly left on the defensive. it was very clear that they hadn't done anything with that money. it was just sitting there. >> exactly. so to continue that, you h

here's pam bondi, attorney general from florida and this is what she has to say about securing the bordere disagrees with that opinion. >> this should be such a bipartisan issue. because i've seen first hand the drugs that have come into my state, into florida from mexico. i've seen the assault rifles. we've seen the gangs. i've been to mexico dealing, helping the good attorneys general from mexico, training them on how to protect their country and work well with our country. so securing our borders is paramount for our homeland safety. and of course helping great immigrants come to this country but in a legal way. >> i think it boiled down to a message that i saw a lot of republicans pushing every day. nancy pelosi wants to drag it out as pete said to january 3rd so she can look like the hero. democrats comes to powerballer. she hopes se see cures th she se to be speaker. but if she secures the deal now, it hurts her with the base. the message the republicans are pushing is she's more serious about securing votes to be speaker than securing the border. and that's the message we're going
