enforcement, removal operation, and hsi. hsi is that investigative arm of i.c.e. it's just unfortunate that when you see what's on tv, the only thing they're reporting is basically the administrative, you know, arrest and housing and deportation of illegal aliens, and the work of the agents is not being covered or reported on. >> so obviously, i.c.e. is doing very important work at least on the hsi part, not as controversial as what it's doing on the deportation side. i know some have been saying i.c.e. should be abolished. where do you stand on that issue? what should happen to i.c.e.? more importantly, what about the functions i.c.e. is doing on both of those tracks? >> i think the important thing about this, the functions of immigration enforcement existed before i.c.e. was an agency. i. i.c.e. was created after 9/11 very suddenly and imbued with a lot of power and money and no accountability. the enforcement functions of immigration law still need to continue to exist, but i think the idea that we have to relook at i.c.e. and actually, you know, eliminate the

britian lags behind continental europe and only has one operational section of high—speed rail known as hsis london with the channel tunnel. one of big challenges to grow the company is to increase the number of services. you can see that's been a bit of a struggle in recent years with the number of international services actually falling as the total number of trains fell to just over 7a,000 according to the latest numbers. changing that would boost returns for the group including uk and south korean pension funds that took over hsi last year in a deal that valued it atjust over $1.2bn. dyan crowther is the chief executive of high speed i ltd, which owns and operates the london to dover railway. welcome to business live. good morning. you took on the role in 2016 and pride to that you worked in the railway sector for many years —— before that. i assume that if a very challenging thing to do because most of the headlines we get about the railway services in the uk are pretty bad! it is actually a great industry to work in. the 30 years i have been involved in the sector i have been involved

>> ice is composed of 20,000 employees, er oh, and forced removal operations and hsi, homeland securityestigations where i worked in homeland security. those are the investigators, 61 agents out of 8600 employees in 200 cities going over 60,000 cities and foreign countries, crimes related to customs or immigration violations as they impact border security, everything they do is in furtherance. >> transnational gang activity, human smuggling, narcotics enforcement, cyber crimes, seems to me we need ice. >> the big misunderstanding, they think all hsi does is investigate immigration related crimes. over 60% of the work done in homeland security investigations is not immigration related. it involves counter proliferation, financial crimes and many other programmatic areas. 400 laws we are required to enforce. >> 60% not immigration related. >> we have an immigration function, it involving human trafficking, identity and benefit fraud, through investigation. >> abolish ice, what would they be a polishing? >> they would be -- thank you. appreciate it. is a law that was forced through congres

and hsi does.r response, considering that these agents place their lives -- we have agents that have lost their lives in the performance of their duties. we have agents that put their families in front -- their jobs in front of their families. you know, you see them, they come to the border for a few hours, they have a field trip, they spend a few hours at the border and then they go back and pretend they know what happens apt the border. they have no clue. and honestly i think they do have a clue but it's not to their benefit to acknowledge the work that's being done. >> a lot of politics there. jerry, thank you for your service. appreciate what you do. thank you, sir. >> no question. >>> coming up, a vacation tours deadly. a tour boat with americans on it erupts into flames in the bahamas. >>> and former president obama backing nancy pelosi's potential return to speaker but a new poll shows her favorability is sinking within her own party. diamond and silk are fired up about this. they're here to

. >> reporter: cody wilson of austin, texas, hsi for gun rights. >> how is that national conversation going? >> reporter: and he is developing instructions for programming a 3d printer to make a fully working plastic handgun or assault style rifle. your access to it on thinrnet or the ability to print it on a machine. >> reporter: but when he planned to post detailed plans online, the obama state department shut him down saying it would put weapons in the hands of hostile forces or terrorists. so he sued, saying it violated his right of free expression and saying similar plans have long been available on the web. >> as long as you have the right to keep and bear arms, you have the right to make them. >> reporter: but federal courts ruled against him. then suddenly last month, the trump administration dropped the government's objection, concluding that rules limiting exports of weapons of war don't apply to wilson's guns after his website promises inct kinds of firearms from handguns to assault-style rifles. advocates of gun control say that would make homemade guns available to anyone

is looking into hsi ss dealings in new york. his break with the president has been dramatic. a week ago, the "new york times" reported that cohen secretly recorded a conversation with then-candidate trump in which they discussed paynts to a former model who said hhead an affair with mr. trump. the tape is one of many the f.b.i. seized in a raid on cohen's office earlier this year. then, last sunday, cnn obtainedw that recordi talked about and broadcast it. mr. cohen could beeard briefing mr. trump on financial arrangements and mr. trump is engaged in the discussion. here's why all this matters. trump's camign ahead ohe election had denied the candidate had any knowledge of payments to the model, karen mcdougle. it also raises questions aboutam possibleign finance law violations and it shows cohen is willing to share tapes of his old boss. josh, we have been covering president trump for some time. we would go to trump tower, there would be michael cohen, theeeixer. to him break like this and release the recording, what does it mean f this white house? joshua: it's shocking, fi

mcaleenan: we make a drug seizure at the port of entry, hsi works with that network and work with to prosecute the case. enforcement and removal operations, the arm of ice that takes custody of those that we apprehend crossing our border illegally or present at our ports of entry and are determined to be inadmissible. they also transport unaccompanied to children to health and human services and they have that responsibility for unaccompanied children under law. >> and once you're done, ice takes over to be clear. you mentioned a lot of things that cbp does, monitoring trade, looking for criminals, smuggling of narcotics, drugs, money, guns, things across the border. we hear all the time about immigration. can you talk how you balance the missions, where are your resources focused and how you balance the various missions? mr. mcaleenan: well, we have to do it all. in the senate finance committee during a confirmation hearing, they pointed out i have 19 enumerated duties as the commissioner of trade and border protection and they are broad in scope, but we've got tremendous leadership

when i was ice director, we pulled millions in the northern border for ice, hsi to work with local sheriffslice to fight the opioid crisis and the child predator crimes. i've done more for the state of new york than they have as far as the safety of the state. so ice protects their communities. abolishing ice is not going to happen. i think it's going to hurt them in november. >> got so much more to get to. a report finds more police officers killed in the line of duty this year. what is behind it and how can we better protect them. no matter who rides point, there are over 10,000 allstate agents riding sweep. call one today. are you in good hands? but she's got work to do.pain. so she took aleve this morning. if she'd taken another pain reliever, she'd be stopping for more pills by now. only aleve has the strength to stop tough pain for up to 12 hours with just one pill. tylenol can't do that. get all day minor arthritis pain relief with an easy open cap. attention homeowners age sixty-two and older. one reverse mortgage has a great way for you to live a better retirement... it's called a

hsi, the other side. almost 1,000 children this year would not have been rescued from sex traffickers. over 2,200 child predators wouldn't be arrested and indicted and behind bars. 981,000 pounds of narcotics would have been seized. several thousand ms-13 members would not be arrested and still here in new york. >> charles: and preying on immigrant communities. they would be the biggest victims of the gang members. >> you're correct. >> charles: thanks, thomas. the one republican that voted no, a republican from michigan. thanks a lot. harmful to congress and the country. that's not a republican saying that about this socialist loving democratic nominee. try joe lieberman as a former democratic v.p. nominee. joe is here. e farmer. my life is here...

does.ot speak to it hsi >> answer the question. does that seem to you like a great priority, report your neighbor who might be an illegal immigrant? number eight, report gang activity or number four, terrorism? on the face of it, does that seem like priorities are set straight? >> i cannot speak to it. i don't think it has anything to do with the relevancy of the information they are trying to report. i believe they get over 100,000 tips a year. is a way they can categorize tips so they know where to find them out. here.nk you all for being i want to start by thanking you for your service your country -- for your service to our country, and not only you but the people you represent. i know you do your best to enforce the laws congress writes and are passed into law a net is what you are doing today and that is what the people who work with you do. congressur fault that has been unable to come up with a more sensible system of enforcing immigration laws. it is our responsibility, not yours. please convey our gratitude to the people
