doug doocy is a more interesting question. he is widely believed, i have not confirmed this, but widely believed to take a job running the u.s. chamber of commerce in washington, d.c. which isn't a bad perch from which to run any kind of number of campaigns including perhaps even a campaign for the u.s. senate from arizona. so it may open the door for him. i'm not so sure doug doocy wants to be a u.s. senator though, and be one of 100. he is used to being an executive, and i just don't think that judge is cut out for him but he is certainly somebody to keep an eye on, because right now, republicans smell blood, see blood in the water, and they're starting to recruit. and i just want to add, somebody did mention, talking about the local reaction, the democratic party statement this morning basically said, and don't let the door hit you on the way out. that tells you where kyrsten sinema stands with the arizona democratic party and many democrats. >> i'll put up on the screen the 2024 senate map and awful democrats who are up fo

island, 90 miles away, to win some political points and that's what arizona' republican governor doug doocy did in his state, governor doocy spent the last months of his term, building a fak border wall out of metal shipping containers. cost taxpayers $82 million. back in texas, governor abbott has also begun - to to deter migrants to provide truth rifles, building fences or barbed wires, -- republicans have attempted t portray these distances acts o protest, in order to start a conversation about what they say is an immigration crisis i this country dropping off busloads of migrants on the sidewalk in the freezing cold christmas eve? it's not about finding solutions, and answers, or caring for the neighbor. it's about rob politics it i political theater, and the cruelty is the point and so is furthering their own political self interest. greg abbott, ron desantis doug doocy, they're all trying to showcase their pro trombone few days on immigration, nor d the best position themselves for a presidential race in 2024 they're using human beings a political football's second up federal buses on

. >> in arizona, governor doug doocy, he has gotten creative turning shipping containers into a makeshiftwork crews stacking hundreds of them topped by razor wire along a remote part of. set to hand off to katie hobbs who says she will consider all options but hasn't made any decisions about those containers. texas governor greg abbott has also taken matters into his own hands, deploying the texas national guard and state troopers to catch and jail illegal migrants, back to you guys. >> todd: all right, marianne, thank you. bring in nicole mall atlantic nic 345nicole malliotakis.accors getting worse and going to be worse good 2023. they expect to hit half a million total encounters over this past weekend. that is just since october. 1/23 unless something changes when title 42 is officially gone is there anything you and your fellow republicans can do about this when you take control of the house next month? >> it's unconscionable that the president and the secretary have refused to do their job. they have abdicated their responsibility. we believe strongly that mayorkas has to go. he has

doug doocy agreed to take down similar border wall built from shipping containers after being sued by administration. doj saying not only has arizona refused to remove the shipping containers from federal land, it will continue to trespass on federal land and install additional containers. since august doocy spent $82 million to plug holes in the border with shipping containers. back in texas, this video was obtained from bill melugin, expected human smugglers being chased by texas law enforcement, the car losing control and crashing in front of border patrol checkpoint near uvalde. yesterday we showed video of the texas ranch house with upon suspects trying to break in, the owner is now speaking out. >> it is sad we cannot come up here and enjoy the life that we did several years ago without fearing for our lives. we have constantly got to be armed. we've got to constantly watch the little one so she doesn't det out of our sight. >> close the border, our governor has got to do something. >> when republicans assume majority in the house next week, they want hearings on the border, hea

. >> first off, you look at arizona and doug doocy the governor is leaving office. katie hobs a democrat will come in. the time frame to keep those barriers up with the cargo shipping containers doesn't work for arizona. abbott was elected and his state is committed to shut it down. texas will fight back hard. that's a positive. we talk about this all the time on the network. this is a humanitarian crisis to every degree possible. it is horrible and a crisis for the soufflÉ america, molly. i think you have so many democrats and liberal elites who loath our country and not worthy of having a border and deciding who can and can't come into our country. like every other country in the world we're not worthy of that. open up the border and let everyone come. what is frustrating for me. this issue i was passionate about it. i would work with democrats to find a solution. there is no solution because democrats do want open borders. they want amnesty for anyone who comes across the border. so republicans, a couple million migrants ago were willing to offer some pathway to

if they nominate somebody like doug doocy, he can take her on with a good chance of beating her in a competitive race. >> bill: call for number three. josh saying something similar. arizona senator sinema's decision has triggered the possibility of a blue on purple civil war that could cost democrats a must-win senate seat in 2024. >> how rational the democrats are and how much they hate her. she ended up -- she has weakened their anger against her a little bit by voting for the inflation reduction act that won't reduce inflation but also weakens her support among conservatives in the state who liked her for standing up to the democrats. >> dana: she is critical of biden's action on the border. the federal government has failed here. >> bill: democrats have to decide if they'll be rational -- >> smart move is endorse her and give her the nomination the way they do in maine the king and bernie sanders. and in utah with the republican candidate mcmullen. >> dana: she does vote with them 90% of the time. >> 95. >> bill: good to see you in person. elon musk releases more details on the i

the biden administration has successfully blocked governor doug doocy's attempt to prevent illegal drugsssing the border agreeing to stop building the makeshift wall out of shipping containers, biden administration had sued the state of arizona claiming that the state was trespassing on federal land and harming the environment. elizabeth: joining us now dr. marc siegel. you wrote an op-ed, what is your take? your motivation is to prediction public -- protect public health of u.s. citizencitizen migrants and government workers. >> i don't think this is a debate. there is a public health matter. title 42 traces back to public health services act from 1944, that gives director of cdc the right to suspend entry of individuals into u.s. to protect public health. guess what? biden administration extended the pandemic. they said it is still going on. still a public meet merge, right. >> there goes title 42, when robert redfield brought this in place, he named the flu as one of the reasons not just covid. and the detention centers were overrun. with people back then, they still are. 10 to 20 tim

if it is doug doocy, all of a sudden democrats are doing everything they can to keep that progressive out of the race. >> to peel back the onion on the idea she votes with biden 93% of the time that is both useful and misleading in some ways. areas in which she broke from him the most are those she prevented from happening. she made very clear she wouldn't vote for the filibuster rules or some of the tax provisions. those never came to the floor in large part because she opposed them. but she did support the president on i believe every single one of his judicial nominations. that is basically all the u.s. senate is going to be doing for the next two years. so if she keeps voting yes on biden judges she probably stays in the white house good graces. >> that is such a great point and part of why negotiating with her is so frustrating as you point out. a lot of times they don't know her position until the very end. taking a step back i think this moment is also just a reflection of how partisan the country has become. if you look at the polls, a majority of voters are frankly just fed u

they're supposedly respectable figures in the republican party, the good republicans, glenn youngkin, doug doocythey all endorsed. her they wanted her to win. and that happens because the party has just lost any sense of why it's a political party other than acquiring power. there is no coherent conservative political philosophy that is being articulated now. that can drop people. it's just about power. so kari lake, yes, sure, she should when -- she wants to [inaudible] yes, she's a nut, yes, she's never going to concede. but we have to support. or they won't say trump's name. and donald trump, unless you attack donald trump, donald trump will win because he is going to attack you. so these people better buckle up. >> melissa, to that point, ronna mcdaniel, the head of the rnc came out with a statement to say, believe it or not because you've heard the statement for the last couple of weeks, there is no place for kanye, fuentes, or their views inside the republican party. mitch mcconnell said something like there is no place for white supremacy inside the republican party. there's been all sort

it does do, if you go ahead and complete the barriers, like arizona governor, outgoing governor doug doocy try to do, it does stop people from walking across the border. you had people coming into the united states across places like the yuma gap in arizona. so, that's one thing. and the other -- thing >> that's a big. problem and the other thing is the 1.6 million asylum applications that our system can't handle. >> i think they're all big problems. i think the backlog is a problem and i think the daily influx is a problem. and i do think fixing the dreamers situation is also a good thing to do. but that also does not address the people that are showing up every single day. so, it's a multifaceted issue here. and all those things, i think, wind up in the discussion around a possible deal, because it's what someone wants, and it's the most important thing for some political constituencies, so you wind up tacking it on. but it strikes me that the most important thing you can possibly do is stop the influx today, get a handle on what we have in terms of the backlog, and scott adding to it. a

coming from the white house and members of congress on key local officials like route this burger, doug doocy in arizona, brian kemp in georgia, -- pennsylvania legislators, and one thing -- a folks like raffensperger were physically going along with this -- this just might have worked. real, orchestrated, high level push and it came quite close. >> we talked about that repeatedly here on this show, specifically how it just all came down to individuals, to people. it was not the system that held up the election results. it was not the truth. it was these people, with brad roethlisberger and brian kemp. hunter walker, we thank you. all right, joining us now is a member of the -- mary gay scanlon thank you for joining us. we appreciate it. i want to talk about some context as we mentioned. sitting member of congress at the, time ralph norman, calling for martial law, three days before president biden is to assume the office of the president. what do you make of that? >> i mean, it's obscene. we talk about there being a possibility of an unprecedented referrals for prosecution of insurrections.

doug ducey, he's building a makeshift wall on his way out of town out of shipping containers and razor wire on the state's border. the goal is to sop migrants from crossing illegally into arizona. doocythe president doing a whole lot of nothing, but the new the wall has really tick thed off the administration. the my mom used to say that, i'm just tick thed off right now. they're suing the sate is, claiming the containers are on federal land. why is the white house trying to punish a governor for protecting his citizens? let's see this thursday night party panel. max funds.com can cofounder, fox news contributor, he's wearing plaid for the season, jo maas max ferry rest -- jonas max ferrises is here. and ellie green is back, host of the fifth column now and 541 languages, it was 540 before the show, reason editor at large mat welch. welcome, everyone. >> thank you. [applause] kennedy: that was the awkward. [laughter] so, mat, you have such an interesting take here. i'm always curious to see what libertarians have to say about immigration because this is clearly a problem. this is not normal, this is not nothing, and the states -- even california governor gavin newsom has complained t
