joining me tom holman, former acting director of ice and hector garza vice-president of the nationalder patrol council. mr. garza, clearly this is an argument about whether or not there's an emergency. we know in 2017 over 70,000 americans died of overdoses primarily due to opioids, penitentiary until that and heroin. that is more than the 58,000 people who died in all of the years of the vietnam war combin combined. one year, 70,000 americans dead from drugs that come primarily, 80 to 90% from the southern border. is that not an emergency, sir? >>> it's an emergency. but we see right now the three ports of entry a lot of dangerous drugs. you have to consider that between ports of entry those are considered unsecured locations. ports of entry are secure locations with technology and manpower. between ports of entry we don't have the technology and manpower. yes it is a crisis and president trump should declare an emergency. >> tammy: you see this every day, the men and women you represent see this every day. mr. holman, you know, your experience too i think is invaluable here in that

director tom holman. i think everyone can agree we have a dissuasion at the border. here is what rush limbaugh had to say today. >> we have an emergency. this is an invasion. the existence and definition of american culture, the rule of law. why doesn't anybody talk about the fact that millions of people are breaking the law coming here illegally and the democrat party wants that to happen. we can't have the breakdown in law and order. that alone would suggest this has gone on way too long. laura: with more areas of expertise, he see what's happening today, is this a national emergency? do you think this was the right call? >> i think it is a national emergency. i agree 100% with what rush said. we finally have a president that recognizes the emergency and wants to control it. he wants to secure our borders like in other president has. they all talk the talk. but we finally have a president who walks the walk and wants to secure the border. i would have prefers a continuing resolution for 10 days to try to fix some of the terrible language in this bill. but the democ

holman, your experience, too, invaluable here in that there are arguments from the democrats, well, mostf this comes in through the secured point of entries. what does that tell you about -- even if it was true, what does it tell you that what happens with the unsecured areas if all of the drugs as they argue are coming in from the ports of entry. all the more reason why we would need the wall, correct? >> look, democrats are twisting the story. what the fact is, more drugs are seized at the port of entry because every car is stopped. every person is talked to. so of course they are going to find more drugs because they have better security. that doesn't mane drugs reason coming across between the ports of entry. there are places that cars can drive through. they can be smuggled in packbacks. so, of course, more drugs are arrested at the port of entry. that is why we need security between the port of entry. they turn the story around. it's the false narrative. that drugs don't come across the border. you have border patrols with you. i was a border agent and 221 kilos in a truck that cam
