we agreed to a number of things including the placement of 6,000 mexican national guard along the mexican southern border. it's the biggest effort to date that the mexicans -- something that we pressed for with them throughout the time of negotiations. we'll work closely with them to make sure that is a successful effort. those crossing the u.s. southern border will be rapidly returned to mexico where they may await add adjudication of their asylum claims. we were able to do this to tune of a couple hundred people per day. we now have the capacity to do this full throttle and engage this in a way that'll make a fundamental difference for those trying to get into the united states. this full-blown effort under the migration protocols is a big deal, and it's something that we worked on very, very diligently are with our mexican counterparts over two deer days. -- two days. and we'll pursue other cooperative efforts. for much of last week, the secretary and his team were excellent partners, we worked with them alongside our team at the state department. for those who said they were nothing,

that's right and it is hard to know how significant and how much, for example, the mexican national guardsready in the works. but there are some moves. mexico was trying to address this problem anyways. the president faced a lot of opposition, both from members of his party in the senate, from business community, it looked like the plan may not have been feasible. it is nice that mexico helped out. is this deal a donald trump win because to his base, to which he is often directing his comments to, he has extracted something, he has potentially held mexico to ransom over tariffs and he has got something out of it. he will absolutely claim it as a win and it depends what your standard is. if that is all one requires then they will be satisfied with this. i doubt we will get much substantive of change and worth keeping in mind this will do damage to trade relations between the countries. the new deal was supposed to bring certainty to the relationship, to investors and this undermines it. note that the president did not say this done once and for all, he said he was indefinitely suspending th

offering up the mexican national guard and changing the asylum process would help. >> neil: what is the other possible agenda, have the mexicans commit to building a wall on their side of the border and paying for it? it would be according to ken fisher who follows this stuff, it would be cheaper for them to endure these tariffs. >> i think the president is being strategic. we could have that discussion at some point. >> neil: you don't think that's what's going on here? >> no, not at all. what the president understands is the real numbers. 80% of the people crossing are border other than mexican. they're coming through the guatemalan gateway. if mexico changes their asylum claims and not provide basically a bus ticket or a transit pass to the southern border, then we could have an enormous impact on the tens of thousands of people crossing the border every month. >> neil: all right. let's play this out, senator. some of your colleagues are leery of the tariff idea that the president is pushing and want to put it to a vote. you're not in that camp but many of your colleagues are. we're

members that the president -- the 6,000 national guard members that trump is focused on can do. the mexican in february. they are a civilian force so it's not as if this deal is going to solve the immigration crisis, and at the same time we're make clear that all of these migrants have to stay on the mexican side of the border, and the mexicans do not have the capacity to provide for their safety or just basic services that are required. >> so you think the tariffs may have helped but that obviously that's not the best method, is that a fair way to characterize your assessment? >> i think this is rewarding bad behavior. it's positive for the u.s. economy and mexican economy that these tariffs are not going into effect. president trump acted like a bill and the mexicans agreed to do something so they could say he got a victory. he'll likely use this as a tool down the road because he can say he got a reward from it. >> speaking of this idea of co-mingling the different spheres, economic, immigration, let's talk about national security as well, right, because china, he's talking about a tarif

their immigration security, particularly on their southern border which would include 6,000 mexican national guards patrolling their southern border with guatemala. if, in fact, the mexicans do increase security and crack down on illegal immigration more, does that mean that the president's tariff threat was worth it? >> well, i think that's a pretty easy question to answer. you have to imagine -- remember mexico and canada are our biggest trading partners. the president has been brutalizing them since he got into office. does it make sense to treat your biggest trading partners, the people for whom this economy and its growth is critical, does it make sense to conduct foreign policy by saying i'm going to hold a gun to your head. i'm going to threaten you with tariffs. over time that will begin to wear very thin with all of our allies. i don't mean just canada and mexico. i mean europe, our allies all over the world. no. i don't think that's a good way to conduct foreign policy. time will tell, john. it appears a lot of what the mexicans agreed to they had agreed to beforehand, well before this d

key portion of this agreement involves the mobilization, the expanded deployment of mexican national guard troops across mexico, with a focus on the southern border, trying to prevent migrants from honduras, ga guatemala and el salvador. according to the new york times, that agreement was actually brokered in march by former dhs secretary kirsten nielsen. further, another portion of this agreement, one that involves a program in which mexico would host undocumented immigrants who entered the united states illegally requesting asylum offering them education and job opportunities, that program was apparently brokered in december according to the new york times. this agreement suggests that it would be expanded, though details on exactly how it would be expanded are still ambiguous. we should point out the president is treating this as a victory, even though the times writes that it is unclear whether the president knew that these agreements were already in place or whether this was a face-saving measure by the president in light of the fact that tariffs were set to take hold on monday. the w

although the better border enforcement with mexican national guard might drop the numbers somewhat of people crossing the border. what the u.s. didn't get is what it really wanted on the asylum issue. it wanted mexico to degree to be declared legally what is known as a third safe country so that people passing through looking for slooicasylum ultimately in united states would first have to apply for asylum in mexico. and then the u.s. could deport people who didn't get asylum in the u.s. easily back to mexico. mexico did not go for that. what the u.s. did get was for mexico to say, okay, we'll take back the people who make to the u.s. and are going through the asylum process, we'll take care of those people in mexico while they wait the process out. so the u.s. didn't fully get what it wanted on asylum, but it did get something. what the u.s. will have to give up though is that it agreed to speed up the asylum aprocess an to contribute more to development program, development assist tabs, not just in central, but in southern mexico. that is something that the trump administration rece

instead mexico has agreed to -- the biggest promises deploying mexican national guard troops to deter illegal migration and agreeing more that apply for asylum at the u.s. border can be returned to mexico while their claims are being processed. the president's re-election campaign sees this as a chance to raise money, rushing out a text praszing the deal and asking for donations. that's the politics. the scope of the policy win, however, is in dispute. "the new york times" claiming these new initiatives were agreed to months ago and mexican officials say they did not, as president trump claimed in a tweet, also agree to make giant new purchases of u.s. farm goods. so brace, braces for debate about whether the president won or whether he blinked. for now a reprieve from trifrs that would have september shockwaves from the u.s. and mexican companies. pitting the president against senators in his own party who don't like tariffs to begin with and especially don't like them being used as a weapon in an immigration dispute. >> let me just say there's a lack of enthusiasm among senate repub

officials and essentially what we're seeing come out of this is their offer to deploy the mexican national guard to the border with guatemala to try to stop the flow of migrants that are then coming through trying to cross to the united states border. but the question that really is going to be the end all, be all here is whether or not president trump accepts what they've been talking about and negotiating over for the last several days. now he's hadn't -- he's on the way back to the united states from his trip in europe and the question is whether he accepts that and right now it seems the president was insisting to lawmakers, who don't want the president to take this move because they fear he t could wreck the economy and he is not bluffing. and as always, it depends on trump. >> we stand by and way. and thank you very much for that. >>> if all of the tariff drama is happening as the president learns of a week job report, only 75,000 jobs added in the month of may but unemployment low at 3.6%. catherine ram pele is from "the washington post" and lindsey peg asu from stifle nicholas and a weal

mexico has also agreed to expand the presence of the mexican national guard against their country withpecific focus on that southern border, to try to prevent immigrants from guatemala, honduras, that golden triangle, from entering their country and trying to get to the united states. and in exchange for all of this, the united states has agreed to drop the threat of a 5% tariff on all mexican goods. as i said, the president sees this as a victory. he has faith that this agreement will improve the situation on the southern border, take a look at what he tweeted earlier today, the president writing, quote, mexico will try very hard and if they do that, this will be a very successful agreement, for both the united states, and mexico. and the thing to watch out here for is what the president will do next, with tariffs. this may embolden him, and potentially, we may see the president threatening tariffs on a number of other allies over certain issues that he doesn't like. potentially levying or threatening tariffs on some european allies on their stance on huawei, the telecommunications co

the headline, the big step, seems to be that they will deploy the mexican national guard throughout more of the country. what impact that has remains to be seen. and as also, as we know, there have been times where, when the united states seems to crack down, that actually spurs more people to come forward, up from the central american countries because they think this is the last chance to make their way into the united states. >> it sounds like the onus is really on mexico and the steps they are going to take but we also do know that this will take, on the asylum agreement, the u.s. has agreed to expedite the asylum process. is that possible? because the system is so overwhelmed? >> yes, this has always been the big problem with trump's desire to speed up the asylum process. immigration courts throughout the united states are very overwhelmed. those are the people who have to adjudicate a lot of this. the surge of migrants at the border of families arriving, of children arriving, unaccompanied at some times, that, all of this has jammed up the system. trump has pushed for mexico to sor

remain in mexico idea that abby had mentioned as well as the deployment of the national -- new mexican national guard. both of those things had been agreed to. the president i think and the president's aides real pushed harder to get the mexicans to do those things faster and more aggressively, and to the extent that, you know, what they have argued over the last several days that that worked, that the threat of tariffs worked to that effect, but my reporting suggests that nothing in the agreement on friday truly expands beyond what they had already agreed to, and, you know, there's the nuance that maybe the president who is not known for nuance is maybe missing. >> and also begs the question that this is crisis avertd, meaning no tariffs to either the mexican or american economy and now the test what are the numbers going to show in a month or two and will the president get mad again? >> or even in a matter of the border every single day and i expect him to probably get mad >> there's a lot in this deal and in the president's phone conversation about his views about the economy that i want to get to

further down on the guatemalan border, southern part of mexico, we heard mexican national guard wouldmoving there. we've seen no real sign of increase movement there. it's also a new force. they're not trained to be handling migrant populations. it's wholly unclear what else mexico can be doing to stem the flow of people crossing the southern border. >> take us there. some democrats say the president manufactured this crisis while at the same time they're saying we need more judges, we need more beds. which is it? >> one of the interesting things we saw down on the border is where the resources were going. i have been inside those border patrol facilities that are wholly underresourced, dangerously overcrowded and there are not additional resources going there. we know these family and children are coming and no funds and resources are going to support the resources on the front lines who are trying to take care of them to the best of their ability. further and i have to say in stark contrast to that, it was real interesting to see the private communities in el paso surge with resourc

times reported officials from the united states and mexico met back in march agreeing to a mexican national guardo protect their border. but before getting heavy pushback from the president of two parts of the deal are new it could not go through until everything was recently signed. acting homeland security secretary kevin mcaleenan backed up his boss on "fox news sunday" earlier this morning. >> people can disagree and i still came to the table with roll proposals, we have an agreement if they implement it will be effective. >> late yesterday afternoon next goes president held a rally in tijuana to celebrate the deal with the united states originally that was posted be in effort to convince the trump administration to back off on the tariffs and it turned into a party and not everybody is celebrating the president negotiating tactics with mexico. >> is becoming a threat and he is treating it like the poker chips at one of the bankruptcy. i think it's wrong and i think should have a consistent trade policy that works for everybody in america. >> speaking of trade policy, those tariffs went into

>>the mexican national guard will head to the border in an attempt to limit migration. this after more than 144,000 migrants were arrested or encountered at the border last month. us customs and border protection says that's a 32% hike from april. >>the highest we have seen in over a decade, the vast majority of the families that we're catching are saying they are coming here for economic reasons. very few actually claim asylum in border patrol custody. >>in the meantime the tariff deadline gets closer. mexico must do. >>more. >>to end the tide of illegal immigration that is the setting our southern border. i'm john lawrence reporting. >>teachers in the new haven unified school district have been on the picket lines now for 3 weeks and there's only one week left to school. >>and that week is crucial because they still need to take finals, especially the seniors. conference christina teachers live in union distills going to get done or not. >>before the end of the year. >>that's something we're not sure but uh they obviously everyone's hoping to because as you mentioned

one key aspect of this agreement is this mobilezation, this deployment of mexican national guard troopsco but with a specific focus on the southern border of that country, trying to prevent migrants from honduras, el salvador, and guatemala from getting to the united states. apparently, according to "the new york times," that agreement was brokered in march by then-dhs secretary kirstjen nielsen. another aspect to this deal is the program under which mexico will host undocumented immigrant who illegally enter the united states requesting asylum, offering them education and opportunities at jobs. apparently that deal was brokered in december. this agreement suggests that that program would be expanded, although the details on just how it would be expanded are still ambiguous. "the times" writes it's unclear whether the president knew that these agreements were already in place or if this is simply a face-saving gesture in light of the fact that tariffs were set to be enacted on monday. the white house has declined to comment on this story. but publicly, the president is casting this as a
