american taxpayer, spending over 340 million bucks to make them have it. >> former acting dhs secretary chad wolfion to this. you know, chad, a recent cbs news poll showed that only 36% of americans agree with the biden administration's immigration policies. you would think the administration would see that number and change course. but it doesn't appear that's happening. why? >> well, i think that's a great question. what we have seen for 12 months is a border in crisis. and an administration that is not offering any new policies to solve that crisis. instead, they continue to double down on a failed strategy that is not upholding the rule of law. that is overwhelming the system, which is why you have these flights in the middle of night to all communities across the country. they have broken the system. they have broken the process down on that border and the result is you are going to have hundreds of thousands of migrants whether they are children or single adults in communities and being released in communities across this country. because they don't know what to do at the border at this poi

betrayal," top trump aide johnny mcentee personally called the acting secretary of homeland security chad wolfhe president is upset," he told wolf. "he doesn't understand why you haven't gotten control of the voting machines." wolf said he did not have the authority to take machines owned by the states. trump also considered an executive order allowing the pentagon to use military forces to seize voting machines, an idea pushed by his former national security adviser michael flynn, who at the time was publicly calling for martial law. >> he could take military capabilities and basically rerun an election in each of those states. >> reporter: as the investigation continues, the committee is literally piecing together documents from the trump white house. some of them have arrived in pieces. the national archives explaining in a statement the documents were, quote, torn up by former president trump. tearing up papers is a long-standing trump habit. of course, destroying presidential records is a crime. and the committee is now attempting to put the documents back together. in a bizarre written s

joining me now is chad wolf, chad, we have to say that this something that we are grateful did not happen during trump's term. he had an interesting approach to russia that was short circuited by the mueller investigation. he wanted a better relationship to avoid what is happening am russia getting closer to china. here we are. as jennifer griffin said a pivot point in history with what russia is undertaking with the military invasion tonight. >> you're absolutely right. what we saw from president trump was engagement on adversaries. what he realized and what president biden doesn't is continued engagement from day one. you don't have to agree with your adversaries but you need to engage them. that's been lacking over the last year. and as well as leadership. we talk about afghanistan or a number of blunders from this administration. that send a signal to our adversaries like putin and xi and otherses, maybe now is the time to take some action we would have otherwise not. that's what is unfolding here tonight. >> laura: well, i think both president reagan and trump understood that the wor

and then the thing that stood out to me the loyal enforcer inside the west wing actually called to chad wolfing secretary of homeland security and said to him -- i have a very authoritative account of this conversation, this phone call, saying the president is upset. he wants to know why you haven't taken action to get control of the voting machines. so the committee goes further. that is out there. the committee gets a hold of the texts of the draft executive orders that explain exactly on what authority they were going to try to get the voting machines. there's a lot more to learn even though the broad outlines of what happened were clear really from that day. really from january 6 of last year. >> to anyone paying attention and watching it unfold. we have to leave it there today. it is great to see you. thank you all for starting us off today. >>> the white house is feeling pretty good about the state of the economy in this second year of president biden's presidency. we'll have a chance to check in with the chief of staff of how they plow ahead in 2022. that conversation next. 2022. that
