from getting out of control at border, but the same people that democrats, that supported the obama administration sending people back now that are opposed to a fraction of that amount september back. -- sent back. >> that is right because it is now donald trump, you know what barack obama was doing it, he could do no arms. donald trump is doing the same thing, now they are up in arms as if it were a moral terp -- like it was wrong. i di did not like the way that department of did those stats, the border has to be locked down, people need to know if they come across, they will be caught and deported. >> the president certainly has the people on his side. all of the polls show that is number one issue that concerns voters, another thing where people on his side, census issue, putting question of citizenship on census, 53% of americans feel that census should include a question asking whether or not they are u.s. citizens even chief justice roberts, i am quoting, it sided against the president but it began by saying that decision, was reasonable and reasonably explained particularly in light of the

it was authored by dana milbank, a pundit who spent much of the obama administration carrying water for its failed foreign policies and excusing president obama's weakness on russia. here's the headline -- mitch mcconnell is a russian asset. a shameful smear, and based on more lies. mr. milbank repeatedly claims that i blocked all efforts to raise our defenses against russian meddling. the truth is that i've championed the coordinated work between congress, the administration, and the states which are primarily responsible for our elections. and the senate has passed several major provisions on this subject this year. and i've spoken frequently on the floor about the need to keep up the progress and to stay vigilant. what's more, one of the specific pieces of legislation he claims i have blocked is something i literally have never opposed. his online column links directly to a bill, and it's something i've never opposed. you'd think a columnist leveling these kinds of smears would at least consult a fact-checker before accusing an elected official of aiding and abetting vladimir putin.

the obama administration did get better over time. there were less deportations. there was daca. t, you know, i think it's also clear that, in a future administration, tewe can do things a lot b than the trump administration and do things better than the obama administration when it cometo this. >> you've said -- and this is a quote -- "i have learned the lessons of the past. it seems vice president biden hasn't." what'd you meaby that? >> well, that was a conversation tiout section 1325 of the immigration ality act. and i acknowledge that we can do things in a better way than we've done them in the past, whether we're talking about nidemocratic administration or a republican adration. and i've laid out a plan for how i would do that if i'm president. and i hope that everybody will learn those lessons. >> yeah, well, 2013me was a real snd a miss because the united states congress passed -- senate passed a bipartisanat immin bill, which would certainly fall short of your standard today, but in the process of sausage-making, nobody's happy. and it might have moved the bale forward h

, i suppose, of the clean air act, and this is really sort of refuting that reading by the obama administration of the -- >> niina farah is our guest. she writes for e&e news. she covers regulations at federal agencies. covering the issue of the clean power plan and the changes made by the trump administration this week. we welcome your phone cause and comments at 202-748-8001 for republicans. 202-748-8000 for democrats. for independents and others, 202-74 202-748-8002. one of the headlines, we saw a piece you wrote this past week, the headline was "wheeler," that's the ep administrator, "rolls out the carbon rule and girds for lawsuits." you write in there that industry groups are praising the epa. some industry groups are praising the epa for finalizing rule that keeps emissions cuts, quote, inside the fence line and gives states flexibility. what does that mean, "inside the fence line?" >> inside the fence line is the technical name for focusing on changes that can happen at the power plant facility, itself, instead of taking, for example, a fuel switching -- i'm sorry, instead of taking an

president obama marked his 2012 opponent for taking russia to seriously and his administration sought a naÏve reset with the kremlin and for eight years i helped lead the charge against that weakness.lp in 2010 i stood with john mccain to oppose the new start treaty, a watered-down placeholder for the sort of tough stance we knew was necessary. the vladimir putin build up his missile arsenal we had to push president obama to commit to deploying capable missile defenses to europe. in 2012 firmly supported sweeping legislation to authorize heavy sanctions following the killing of surrogate ministry in russian prison. the obama ministration flinched and tried to tiptoe around our legislation to mess up their charge offensive but we back them into a corner and the president signed the bill and the law. inly 2014 i and other republicas constantly press president obama to get tougher on russia with respect to putin's aggression in ukraine.es i mr. president, i asked that the news article dated march 4, 2014 entitled mcconnell obama's passive foreign policy is a mistake appear in the recorda

it was the obama administration that did not sell them the patriots. and this is really what we've heard from turkish officials over and over again saying that they've tried to buy this, the patriot, but it was blocked by previous u.s. administrations. some u.s. officials would disagree saying that there were negotiation, but turkey wanted to also buy the technology that goes with the missiles. something the u.s. was not willing to do. but a very critical point right now is that the president did not mention sanctions. he's obliged under the american law to basically hit turkey with sanctions, impose sanctions under the countering america's adversaries through sanctions act. but so far no mention of that, and that seems to be what has given turkish officials including president erdogan the confidence to go ahead with the deal. >> certainly have not heard the last of this. reporting live from istanbul, thanks. >>> america's largest drug makers sold 76 billion ox co-don and hydrocodone pills between 2006 and 2012 in the middle of the country's deadliest

the obama administration was begging for a meeting, begging for meetings constantly. and chairman kim would not meet with him. >> reporter: that prompted a sharp rebuttal from former obama

at dhs both during the obama administration and trump administration. there's been a lot of talk from democrats on this committee about the border crisis. i hope secretary mcaleenan will offer some facts, facts, real perspective, learn from his years of serving our country and helping secure or border. last week this committee held a hearing entitlinged "kids in cages." the next day chit ycommittee chairman nadler accused them of homicide. they told the people who work for this administration, work for secretary mcaleenan, quote, negligent homicide. and another thing, he said cdp was engaged in torture. this was wrong and despicable and does not to fix the problem. after months of calling this a fake crisis, democrats now changed their tune. make no mistake the democrats only changed their tune because the facts simply cannot be

the obama administration address security at nsa and i think we need to do a better job obviously. i don't have a proposal for that but there needs to be someone in which there can be oversight of the security at nsa and cia by somebody else. the contractors need to suffer when they up because there is no penalty. three other issue though is when the nsa or the cia becomes aware of a vulnerability in some widely utilized system. what should they do? president obama decided based on recommendations by a group of experts of which i was one that the default value, the default value is if you discover a flaw that could be exploited and widely used software you tell the software manufacture and you help them fix fix it fix it. only in very rare occasions and only for short period of time should it be otherwise. i'm not sure that's happening. the public doesn't have any way of penetrating to know whether or not that has happened. i think the government knew about a fault in the microsoft server software and probably was using it for couple of years. and then only told microsoft about it

the obama administration was trying to kill the exact loophole biden used. s vice president. so there is a little hypocrisy. joining us to discuss it, steve hilton. welcome back. good to see you. i was going to say, i don't necessarily have a problem with someone using the loopholes that are there. but he's the vice president of the united states with the administration trying to close this loophole. does he not say to his accountant, let's be judicious in this? >> it's not exactly a news headline that a democrat is a hypocrite because they do on so many issues all the time. this is a guy who presents himself as a regular blue collar guy. he hasn't been there for 40 years or so. he has been a fully paid up member of the swamp for decade. but there is a serious policy point. he along with all the other democrats attack president trump's tax cuts and republican tax cuts all the time. saying people should pay more tax. but what they reveal, just like most of other people, they want to keep more of what they earn. republicans understand that instinct. and the dem

again, just as the obama administration did.ur asylum laws, and those two changes alone would make an enormous difference. but i can fit even a third one -- steve: can i just make sure i've got the second one? what's the situation now? >> so we can quickly, once we screen a child from mexico, for instance, to determine and make sure they're not a trafficked child -- steve: so this is a child that shows up on their own or with someone else? >> yes. steve: on their own. >> yes. steve: right. >> now, generally in the media you've seen a lot of the use of the term uac, unaccompanied child. but that seems to be applied to almost every child whether they're technically unaccompanied or not, and if they have parents in the united states and they're available to those kids, they're not an unaccompanied child. in that situation the federal government is essentially funding the last leg in a human trafficking chain. and that is not what the federal government ought to be doing. and, again, this is an area where if you just look at it on i

so through kbrgritted teeth, th obama administration had patience with the whole benghazi thing. n will have to, you know, at the end of things have patience with this congress. but that's not in donald trump's dna. >> do you think if trump were nixon he would have burnt the tapes? >> yes. >> do you think so? we agree on that? unified on that theory. thanks you, gene robinson and michael steele. >>> up next, president trump finds a hardcore loyalist to overtake his director of national intelligence. ratcliffe may be facing an uphill battle in the u.s. senate. next on "hardball." senate next on "hardball. has been excellent. they really appreciate the military family and it really shows. with all that usaa offers why go with anybody else? we know their rates are good, we know that they're always going to take care of us. it was an instant savings and i should have changed a long time ago. it was funny because when we would call another insurance company, hey would say "oh we can't beat usaa" we're the webber family. we're the tenney's we're the hayles, and we're usaa members for li

iran and its claim that they -- they're going to breach the un -- the uranium deal that the obama administration put together with the european allies among others, how worried should we be about the tensions between the u.s. and iran? >> we should be -- we should absolutely be worried. i think at this point the iranians should not go beyond the limits that were set in the agreement. i don't see how that could possibly help them with the economic misery they find themselves in. that being said, at this point we should work with our allies and others in the region who want to see iran basically abandon a nuclear weapon and we have to get away from that children's game of operator where we talk to iran through intermediaries and thereby send confusing signals to them and potentially signals that could lead to miscalculation by them or us. i think we should speak directly to them, make it clear what our demands are, and we should come back to the table and we should hash out another agreement asap. there is no appetite for war, wolf. among my constituents or anybody else that i talk to and yet if w

. >> so mayor de blasio, the obama-biden administration targeted families in what they called concerted nationwide enforcement operations in 2016. i.c.e. numbers very clearly showed that deportations under obama-biden grew as high as 400,000 a year, far more than the 256,000 deportation this is year by trump-pence. does joe biden need to answer for that? >> oh, jake, absolutely. let's be honest and i think there are issues where democrats and republicans unfortunately have some responsibility for the problems. we can't as democrats be so partisan to say we were perfect because we weren't. i think some of that was absolutely a mistake. in the end what we needed to have was a very different approach that said this should be a country for working people. a country where we respect the immigrants come here to try to do well for the family and we need a certain number of immigrants in the country to have our economy go forward and work. instead i think democrats have often been scared of their own shadow and listening to what is on fox news or the attacks coming from republicans and respondi

we have the obama administration on the battlefield and now we have trump divulging the power. having worked for three presidents in the white house, i know when an agency has authority to do something like from the covert operation, if it goes wrong, it's the president who gets blamed to the president has a right and obligation to have some white house oversight supervision. some of the critics would say we don't want him to have that authority maybe you are right the white house should have oversight but in this case we trust the pentagon more than the white house. do you agree with that? you brought up here on in the escalation between the united states and washington and tehran. in the book you have a hypothetical scenario where hostility between israel and iran in the scenario you describe the situation where the president is informed that the united states blocked the cyber attacks and turning to the secretary defense saying david and began bombing iran. is that possible? >> guest: is a short piece of fiction in the book and i think it is realistic. we go through and deco

then had eight years in the obama administration alongside for four of those years my husband who i met the obama campaign who is in charge of regulation for obama so we had the experience of driving to work every day and leaving sharing our frustrations and both he had served in government before but both pretty new to trying to figure out how to make the system work on behalf of the things we believe in. in a rough-and-tumble political world. >> to you in ambassadorship the right place for an idealist? >> was a great place for me. it was a place that you could confront aggression in a very visible and vocal way. other jobs are more behind-the-scenes. when russia invaded ukraine and when russia began bombarding the town of aleppo and syria could create moments where even if the security council itself is blocked because russia has a veto from the founding of the un you can create some form of accountability by just being a truth teller. you can negotiate behind-the-scenes even with those you want to strangle. i worked extremely closely i tell the story in the book, with the russian amb

this was the last state arrival of the obama administration, for italy. this is the first lady of italy, who mrs. obama gave a tour of the renovated kitchen garden in 2016. i was lucky enough to join the tour. here they are pointing out new additions to the garden. as we were walking through, the first lady of italy had never seen a yellow tomato before. which is a white house favorite. they are sun gold, they are delicious bundles of sweetness. she had never seen one. we picked a handful and we all shared a handful of sun gold tomatoes. maybe they can put that on my tombstone. [laughter] jim: as i said, this is taking care of by the national park service, that no one does this alone. this was a project driven by the first lady and her office and staff and the director of let's move and white house chefs. the national park service staff, because they do take part of the horticultural assets of the white house, they are the daily caretakers of the garden. there are also volunteers. mrs. obama wanted it to be a group effort so volunteers came in at least onc

air defense system rather than place the blame on turkey or russia, the president blamed the obama administration for not selling turkey a similar american air defense system years ago. is it fair to blame president obama for this situation? >> no, it is not fair to blame president obama. but that is what president trump does best. blame anyone but yourself. he's been in office now for two and a half years. he's got to start taking responsibility for what is happening. he likes to take responsibility when the job numbers are up. but the job numbers were down, he's probably blame that on president obama too. >> congresswoman jackie speier of california, thank you so much for joining us. >> thank you. >>> up next, anger and frustration boil over as the house of representatives takes up a resolution condemning racist tweets by president trump. and north korea issues a new warning to the united states, is kim jong-un's regime about to start testing nukes again? going to the shawn mendes verizon up concert was like an out of body experience. we were right in front of him. dead center. front row.

the study that happened before was the obama administration. the obama administration. i think their answer was correct. we need to not study this. we need to move forward. i reserve. the chair: the gentleman from oregon is recognized. mr. blumenauer: what is the time remaining? the chair: the gentleman from oregon has 3/4 of a minute remaining. mr. blumenauer: and my colleague from ohio? the chair: time has expired. mr. blumenauer: well, let me just make three points. first and foremost, anybody who thinks that we're standing still and defenseless is not in the real world. we are spending billions of dollars on nuclear weapons and delivery systems and in fact, you're relying on a delivery system from the kennedy era with the b-52. so don't tell me that you cannot move these items forward. second, you do not have a good fix in terms of what's happening with the cost increases. this study just will -- is required to be able to have the additional money. if we can do the appropriate study and it makes sense, the money's there. but this is a step towards accountability. an

. >> the obama/biden administration also targeted families in what they called concerted nationwide enforcement operations. they did this in 2016. i.c.e. numbers very clearly showed deportations under obama/biden grew as high as 400,000 a year, far more than the 256,000 deportations this year by trump/pence. does joe biden need to answer for that? >> jake, absolutely. look, let's be honest. there as lot of issues where democrats and republicans unfortunately have some responsibility for the problems. we can't as democrats saad we were perfect because we weren't. that was a mistake in the end. what we need to have was a very different approach. this should be a country for working people, a a country we respect immigrants come here and do well for their family. we need a certain number of immigrants in the country to be able to have our economy go forward and work. instead, i think democrats have often been scared of their own shadows, listening to what's on fox news or attacks coming from republicans or responding to them too much. we need to be real blunt about the fact democrats made mistakes

the obama administration opposed that, the trump administration has sought to fix it. the same thing with children who are -- or the question remains whether they're trafficked, to determine whether they're trafficked. the obama administration wanted to close the same loophole the trump administration does. we can close those two loopholes on one piece of paper. one piece of paper. and when the house schedule came out between now and when they go on vacation -- >> i mean, the loophole you're talking about is allowing families to be detained together. >>> but i want to move on to the i.c.e. raids. the president said there would be a big, new effort for mass deportations he suggested starting today, is that going on? >> we never talk about the details of days -- >> well, the president did. he said it was going to start today. >> he's the president. i'm not the president. look, i have a lot of respect for our i.c.e. officers, they're loyal and compassionate. but they have a job to do. it's a tough one. enforcing the laws congress put in place. >> what's going on? what is

we saw the obama administration try to do their pivot. there's a lot of talk currently in this administration and also on the hill about disengagement or burden sharing in the middle east, which means us forces should get out and we should shift the burden and have other people put in resources. the bottom line is whether you ascribe to either world view or both, do you need partners and allies to address those threats? in that context, would we prefer saudi arabia to be in the umbrella with us or not? iran policy. regardless of your views on the jcpoa, there's a potential for u.s./iran confrontation in the middle east right now. if the blood of u.s. forces or u.s. personnel is spilled and we are in a situation where we have to confront militarily, do we want to be working with saudi arabia? do we need them for airspace access, for basing of forces, for maritime threats? israel. there's a debate right now on the hill, i think, more on the democratic caucus than republican, about the future of the relationship. there's no question that rela

now, we grew much more quickly than the obama administration than we did in the bush administration for obvious reasons, and we've done well during the trump adminitration compared to the obama administration for some same obvious reasons. now that we've gotten that out of our system, i'm not sure where the 5% growth is that i think president trump was talking about. it's just not going to happen and i don't know -- david: i've got to say hold on one second. one more answer, go ahead. >> productivity. david: jamie dimon just for what it's worth he's a pretty smart guy at jpmorgan he said don't get too pessimistic about things. i know a lot of people are worried about 2.1% when there should be 3 or 4% but consumer is still strong, business sentiment is still strong, we could have a china deal and you can catch jerry baker's full interview with larry kudlow by the way tonight on wall street journal at large at 9:30 p.m. eastern time, it's only here on fox business. meanwhile you'll get $1,000 just for being born and it doesn't end there. 2020 candidate and senator corey booker, proposing

under the obama administration $2234.00 on settlements that was passed by the security council the obama administration decided to abstain and not to use their veto angering the trumpet ministration it was about to come into office so that was the backdrop for this angry exchange we will not get to the bottom of who's interpretation of international law is correct on this conflict there is no judge jury or court in the world that the parties involved have agreed to give jurisdiction in order to decide whose interpretations are correct. international law with respect to this conflict is a tricky subject that could be discussed and argued for years without ever reaching a conclusion for us international law is not men you are correct there are other instances where u.s. representatives here insist on international law insist on the implementation of u.n. security council resolutions for instance on north korea and where we follow we absolutely support this and as the head of the sanctions committee worked very hard to implement word by word the un security council resolutions so for us $23
