homan. i am never in i'm hoping, i have listened to all of us and sometimes i think we put issues on top of issues and there's quite a few issues floating around. i think all of us appreciate the border patrol and those people that work for our federal government. i want to thank you for being here today. and i understand why you could get a little bit upset. i get that. but i also say we need to concentrate on living and not just the dead and all the problems. we are to figure out some solutions. i think you presented some. and mr. homan, five times no has presented three things that he thought all to be done. and that could resolve this problem. and, you've said something that is really bothering me and it makes me think. you said is not necessarily about the money. it is about a will. i've two pieces of that. i want you to talk about what was to homan, a man who has been at his job over 30 years? >> over 30 years. and who is a dedicated public servant. his recommendations and i want you t

homan said.lake: do you agree when he was asked about the zero tolerance family separation policy? >> we made clear when the stories first came out about children being separated from their mothers. no one wants to see a child taken from their mother's hands. at the same time these facilities weren't set up to hold and to house the number of people they are housing. they certainly weren't set up for children. when they show a picture and it doesn't look like a good place for children, it's because it wasn't designed for that. president trump is following the same policy that began with president clinton on family policies at the border. congress has to step up. mr. homan was correct in what he said in his testimony today and take action. democrats want to talk about it. blake: it wasn't the same under clinton, waits? >> it started with the flores agreement that happened in 1997. it's been interpreted differently by different administrations. we don't want to see children separated at the border.

a lot of lawmakers pointed their questions and their anger at homan for what they say is enacting the child separation policy, they blame him for putting it into action. >> you gave her numerous options, but the recommendation was option three, family separation. >> that was alexandria ocasio cortez explaining that she is pointing to a memo that was released in april of 2018, detailing from homan to then secretary nielsen options for zero-tolerance policy that he thinks would reduce the incentives for people to come across the border. there was also a lot of talk about why homan did not address the conditions that these children were being kept in. >> do you not care? is it because these children don't look like children that are around you? i don't get it. have you ever held a deceased child in your arms? >> you sit there and insult my integrity and my love for my country and for children, that's why this whole thing needs to be fixed. and you're -- fix it! >> homan actually replied he has held a deceased child in his arms, a 5-year-old who he found in a tractor trailer at the border

here to talk about tom homan, forming acting i.c.e. director and fox news contributor.he wall funding as well as the guatemala deal. how big an achievement in this for the administration? >> is a huge achievement. if you look at the data every place that builds a border barrier in the past, it has resulted in decreased immigration and drug flow. this is a game changer in itself because people from honduras and el salvador have to claim asylum in the first country they come to. if they really escape in fear and persecution from the home government was they skipped the country they should be able to claim asylum in the next country which would be guatemala. >> and what about the two and have billion that the president now can start spending on the border wall? how quickly would you expect that that will actually start you know meaning that shovels go in the ground. >> i think that they have contracts pending i think they start moving all the money will free up. again, i read a lot in the news the president calling this victory but i want to make a clear is a win for ameri

director tom homan. >> do you not care? because these children don't look like children around you? i don't get it. >> have you ever held a deceased child in our arms? >> first of all, your comments are disgusting. i served my country 34 years. and yes, i held a 5-year-old boy in my arms. i knelt down beside him and said a prayer for him because i knew of what the last 30 minutes of his life were like. and i had a 5-year-old son at the time. what i tried to do in my 34 years serving my nation is save lives. for to you sit there and insult my integrity and my love for children, that's why this whole thing needs to be fixed. fix it. liz: thomas homan is saying, congress, you are politicizing this to stay in power. you are dhootion attack integrity of men and women who served their country as best they can under the laws you have write. you choose to complain instead of fixing the laws. it's your problem. >> i agree with mr. homan 100%. all they want to do is inject race, political correctness, and you know what? you have woul

i think tom homan should of walked out. what i would of done. people making these comments. members of the house. idiotic. of the comments are just stupid. men and women of border patrol and ice go out every day putting their lives on the line to protect this country. people coming into the country illegally they are violating federal law. you don't want those kids separated from their families. you don't want the kids taken away, then don't come into the country illegally. it's all about asylum. for asylum appropriately. the guidefront of the law. try to break the law coming into the country, and then complain about the out come of what happens next. >> laura: as we talked about many times, congressman duffy, the trip up here is a bad trip. are sleeping in fields, cement, benches, floors, occasionally someone takes them in and they sleep on a mat somewhere. not like it's the ritz on the way up from central america. are in trucks, buses. idea that, that they come to the united states and it's all terrible, it's ridiculous. it's bad, over crowded. come on. the asylum reform h

tom homan has been a force to be reckoned with.the border officials have been vilified. when you look at the statistics of what's happening, they can't sit well with this. this is a very different story that's being painted by democrats who are talking about the generalities of separating children from their parents at the border, things are not happening. >> a bunch of former obama staffers got together and wrote an op-ed in the "washington post." this is a portion, it says we're african-americanssafrican-amerie patriots and refuse to sit idly by. it goes on to criticize the trump administration. barack obama himself tweeted out saying i've always been proud of what this team accomplished during my administration. but more than what we did, i'm proud of how they're continuing to fight for a america that's better. lots of vagueness there. but obviously this team fully against what the trump administration is trying to do. >> that's fascinating to me that he weighed in on twitter like that. my perception is he was taking a step back

how do we stop this extraordinary flow that we are seeing, tom homan?tom: we close the loopholes. if the family comes across asylum let's hold them long enough to see a judge. that is only way to guarantee a judge.le we built the first familyet detention center and 90% of the cases we sent them home. the border numbers plummeted. it works. >> raymond: i wish i had more time because i could be here all night. thank you, tom, guenther. new details about president trump's fourth of july salute to the america. is he politicizing or encouraging patriotism? a live report, your thoughts in a hot debate next. is he politicizing or encouraging patriotism? these folks, they don't have time to go to the post office they have businesses to grow customers to care for lives to get home to they use stamps.com print discounted postage for any letter any package any time right from your computer all the amazing services of the post office only cheaper get our special tv offer a 4-week trial plus postage and a digital scale go to stamps.com/tv and never go to the post of
