on sanctuary city laws, i get it. illegal immigrants that come to this country and broke the law, many will not go on to commit other crimes. but 100% did break the law and should not have been here and if we effectively secured our border, this child would have their father. >> jesse: that's true. he came here from mexico, was busted twice for dui, didn't have any idea, didn't have any insurance, he had gang affiliations, multiple aliases. in madera county, they have an unspoken sanctuary policy. i.c.e. was never contacted because these weren't felonies. they were misdemeanors. so when something like this happens, it's heart-wrenching. and there is not the outpouring of emotion when an american police officer is killed by an illegal alien criminal. but there's this huge outpouring of emotion when a woman, a migrant in the caravan, is tear gas. one is dead and the other is teargas. this country focuses on this woman at the border with her kid and she's held out to be this big hero, and an actual hero right now is now

because, here in a sanctuary city like you saw in california sanctuary state, they are not allowed, asheriff said, they are not allowed to turn those kind of criminals over when they are released from prison over to ice. they are not allowed to share some of that information with our border agents who are tasked with keeping our country safe. look, a lot of these democrats up here in congress, they don't even want ice. last year alone, sean, our ice agents, our border agents on the interior of our country stopped and saved over 900 kids from being sexually asawlgted in human trafficking. that's going on at our border. and they are stopping it but they are surely not stopping all of it. so why would they oppose this kind of funding? it's because they are not for border security. you can't say you are for better secured and oppose things that experts say are needed to keep our country safe. >> sean: congressman steve scalise thank you for joining us. joining us now with more on the battle over the border the so-called big government shutdown which is never really a shutdown south carolin

county and the reason it's happening is because of the sanctuary city and sanctuary county and state that's going on in california is affecting the black community there. it's uncivil in the schools, the kids are being told to go back to africa from kids that are not even citizens of this country. it's almost no one will cover the type of frightening situation where the cars are being car bombed, firebombed because there are black people in the illegal latino community. i'm not sure exactly what's going on down there because people won't cover it. maybe this guy from the examiner can go to some of these sanctuary cities where the -- where black people are living and they're having a terrible time with this illegal immigration and sanctuary cities and it's not being covered? >> there's an interesting point. i think democrats assume all of their constituencies are on board with their immigration fight but i think the caller makes a good point. there's a growing sentiment among african-americans that the democratic party doesn't speak for them on immigration. the first caller, the afric

in those sanctuary city laws. and supports this amendment or this exception to sanctuary city for this extradition. i am here to answer any questions. >> supervisor yee: thank you, very much. now, is there any public comments for this item? seeing none, public comment is now closed. right now, i believe supervisor ronen has amendments to this item. would you like to talk about that? >> sure. i just want to step back a moment and provide context to this situation we're finding ourselves in. this particular case -- excuse me while i cough. this particular case, the district attorney has determined that there is probable cause and enough evidence to prosecute an individual who they believe raped an unconscious woman while she was in a uber-type vehicle. the city attorney, as they've done -- sorry. the district attorney, as he has done many times in the past, under a different administration, sought the help of the department of homeland security to seek extradition into the country of someone that fled, charges that

so i think that's one of the concerns i have about sanctuary cities. the second concern i have is that the sanctuary city problem is a criminal alien problem. i think a lot of people are under the impression that sanctuary cities are there to protect, you know, the illegal aliens who are quietly living as productive members of society and paying their taxes, as senator hirona said. it isn't. the problem with sanctuary cities is that it is preventing the federal government from taking custody of criminal aliens and it's a deliberate policy to frustrate the apprehension of criminal aliens by the federal government. so i don't think those cities should be getting federal -- >> do you think -- would it be abided with any other violation of u.s. law? >> no, i don't, and there's a legal issue, which is the question of -- what's the word -- commandeering, you know, the states argue that for their law enforcement officers who have custody of a criminal alien to notify the federal government on a timely basis so that they can turn that fugitive essentially over

you have people in congress that have approved sanctuary cities.anctuary cities violates title 8, code 1234 which is our immigration law. it violates it by aiding and abetting illegal eighth aliens. if we can do taxpayer dollars to aid and abet illegal aliens, why can't we use that money to fund a wall to protect american citizens. lou: there is that and there is the president saying he's considering declaring a national emergency at that border. look at what's transpiring there, it's the primary source of the methamphetamine, heroin, marijuana entering this country. and mexico is one of the most of if not the most of violent nations on earth. the drug cartels effectively run that. it's that government. it is an absolute disgrace what we are witnessing in that country, and the democrats don't want to make americans safe. it's stunning. let me turn quickly. impeachment. did you hear the nonsense coming out of the mouths of these develop kralts now in the 116th congress? who are these people and what are they thinking? impeaching the most of successf

, have signed onto being a sanctuary city. and don't think the trump administration is raining hard on them. they are, too. in san francisco, we stand for something. in san francisco, people look to us. when we chip away at our sanctuary city law, the rest of the nation looks at us, too. they stand strong because we stand strong. we have a bigger responsibility bigger than our jurisdiction of san francisco. we have a responsibility to the united states, to the rest of the world. i think this moment was actually very telling for me. i think that it is a time when we really need to double down. the trump administration has hired the most -- i think they are very, very intelligent, these people who he has hires -- hired, and they're very intelligent on immigration law. we must also be kept abreast of what was going on, but also we need to be aware that we could be baited at any time. i also want to say that i am proud here in san francisco that we have not buckled down. i am proud that we have said with our undocumented community

how many americans need to die because we have open borders and sanctuary city and state policies before democrats take this seriously? how long are we going to witness drug trafficking targeting our kids in small towns and big cities or the human trafficking or the infiltration of gangs and even terrorists that we have identified trying to cross our border illegally and get into this country and cause us harm before the democrats stop playing politics? four years ago, they supported the trump policy. how many billions of dollars must you, the american taxpayer spend in deportation fees, court costs, health care, education, the criminal justice system, other social services before we start controlling immigration at our southern border. i have said this many, many times. i am certain, 98%, 99% of those people that want to cross the border into this country, they just want a better life. the things we take for granted, freedom, opportunity, hope for their kids, their grandkids. we just want to do it legally, vet them. big wall, big door. that's why in tonight's hannity watch on the border

this is preventable in our country. >> sean: the sanctuary city, state issue -- criminal aliens, not here to want a better life, in jail, they let them go, basically assist them out the door so they don't get deported? >> i'm the only one in this group that got justice through the criminal court systemm for joshua, i don't think anybody else has done that. thank you, texas, forsh that. it does have some sort of -- you know he's there for a long time. i don't think anybody else got justice. >> sean: we are going to end this here. i want to personally come over -- thank you. it's unbelievable, i'm sorry so much. really, the pain, i know. so good to see you. you are so strong, i hope you get that meeting.t my daughter is so beautiful, really. and your son, the same. >> thank you. this is not trump's wall, this is america's wall. >> sean: we can have a door, too. we just want to vet you. steve, thank you. your son, grant, amazing. so good to see you. thank you so much. i know this is the hardest time for both of you, this just happened the 29th of december. you are in our prayersbe alway

if we did not have sanctuary cities, the town that my husband was killed in is a sanctuary city if wenot have those my husband would still be here. liz: where is that city? sorry? >> jupiter, florida. it's a sanctuary city in florida in palm beach county. if that town was not a sanctuary city my husband would be here. if the wall was here, he would be here. if we had stronger immigration enforcement my husband would be here. if it wasn't catch and release my husband would be here. there's so many factors that just can be fixed and it's all fixed. it's all able to be fixed and my husband would still be here, all of the americans would still be here that were killed by illegal s if we just fix these problems. liz: now have you reached out to both democrats and republicans? what was the outcome? >> so after the accident happened, they were going to give the criminal that killed my husband bond. they wanted to give him bond, and the judge has said to me i'm not going to give him bond today but this is a bondable offense. so the first thing i thought was holy goodness he's not here legally

do you believe that sanctuary cities play a role in harboring some of those activities? >> yes, i do. i think there are a number of sort of -- you know, of factors that have an hydraulic effect in that they pull people into the united states or induce them to take the hazards of coming into the united states, coming up hundreds of miles through mexico and so forth. and things like sanctuary cities where they feel like they'll be able to come up and hide and be protected is one of those factors that i think is irresponsible because it attracts the illegal aliens coming in. and obviously i think that the main problem with sanctuary cities is they're not giving us information about criminals they have in their custody. this is not chasing after, you know, families or anything like that, this is going after criminals who the state and local law enforcement have in custody and not allowing us to take custody of them and get them out of the country. that's the problem with sanctuary cities. >> correct, which could be the situation that edwin majia, who killed sara root. we wou

so keep singing your sanctuary city song. it's no longer a big issue. >> why?crats favor border security. >> why -- >> they've made many offers to beef up border security. the 2013 bill was a masterpiece of bipartisanship, and it only did not become law because john boehner was a cowered and wouldn't put it on the house floor. >> he says drone and i know more about technology than anybody else and it's not enough. and will heard, republican represents the longest single border district could not be more clear, it is the most expensive and least effective way to protect the border. he's talk about a wall and he was laying out how we need more technology. >> what about border patrol agents? wouldn't you say they know more about controlling the border than anyone? i'm sort of agnostic on the wall. i think it'll help but i think you got to take a lot more steps. but, you know, not funding the wall and not funding the border security is prohibiting us from getting real legal immigration reform done. and by the way, joan, i asked you four times to explain why all the

>> the challenge is governor cuomo is following mayors and those who set up sanctuary cities and theylse narrative, you cannot have rule of law and compassion. i believe those are compatible principles. this will be a showdown with the white house and the administration because a lot of this deals with federal law. that could create interesting challenges. it is also indicative of where mister cuomo's mindset might be. his third term as governor might be a short one. he is one who will be floating a few trial balloons up in a 2020 run. heather: he commuted sentences of 7 other individuals, four of twee 7 convicted murderers and three behind bars for our robbery. >> that is ahead scratcher to me. i don't understand where those are coming from and why he would lump those in with what was clearly a statement about immigration policy. to throw those in to me says he's trying to act above the law as chief executive of the state and that is problematic. heather: the interesting given the timing and what else is going on in the country. >> no question, another shooting of an officer by an il

that's the problem with sanctuary cities. >> correct, which could be the situation that edwin mejia, who killed sarah root, we would love to see that young man brought to justice. thank you very much for your time. >> thank you. just follow up, senator klobuchar, i won't count this against your time, you're saying you want access to people who commit crimes or are accused of criticizing crimes outside of a status violation? >> that's right, senator. >> senator klobuchar. >> thank you. thank you, mr. barr. i take it as a positive that your grandson has gotten out a pen and a pad of paper to take notes during my questions. i'm also impressed by your daughters and they all chose to go into public service. employees at the justice department, as you know, are furloughed or are working without pay. i've talked to a number of them at home and it's an outrage. very briefly, what do you have to say to them? >> i, uh, i would like to see a deal reached whereby congress recognizes that it's imperative to have border security and that part of that border security , s a common sense matter, need

this is something that is not allowed under the cities sanctuary law. >> that is right. ays to the city employees you cannot use any of our sources that we pay for to deal with the feds when it comes to illegal immigrants. the theory at that is we want peace in the community so if an illegal alien gets beat up we want to allow them to report without having fear of being deported or having their kids go to school. fear of being deported. i get all that. it is still and i come back to you. it is illegal immigration. people seem to forget that part of it. so how do we handle it >> they say we don't reported better classic example is the man that killed a woman on the wars. >> i. >> so there is the guy that they let out and did not tell the feds and he goes off and kills somebody. >> so the feds want to know if he makes bail or is acquitted. at that point if he is acquitted on the charges why shouldn't you want free. >> because he is an illegal alien. they should tell the feds. that is the deal. then don't do it. you are painting yourself into a corner. you made the rules and

look, if you have a city or a county or a whole state like california, which has become a sanctuary city, those governors or mayors or legislators or city councils, of course do not want our immigration laws taken seriously. in the last two years, a bill was brought forth trying to end sanctuary cities. and all but three members, the democratic party, and a few republicans, a few republicans voted against the bill, and all but three democrats voted against the bill. now, i try to put in my mind what would cause someone, if they really cared about enforcing the border, to say, we have no problem with counties or cities in essence putting up a sign to say, we are not going to ask people whether they're here illegally. the point is that obviously there are a lot of people out there who don't care about border security. we have several congressmen getting elected on the platform of saying that they don't want to fund i.c.e. the immigration and customs enforcement agency. why would somebody not want to enforce the immigrations and customs authority and at the same time want to have our border

or the people that also aid and abet these people with their sanctuary cities and sanctuary states, criminal aliens in our custody that are not handed over to i.c.e. you always say it's about both parties, but it's not. it's about one party now that refuses to protect the american people, and i didn't mention drugs and i didn't mention human trafficking. >> i love you brother, but you are looking at that family, the cochran family and what they've suffered. there are no words that i can offer that will give them any solace or any relief. i am so sorry. >> sean: solve the problem. >> let me put a few sentences together here. i would feel equally upset and pained by their tragedy. where the killer irish or italian or puerto rican or jewish, or old or young, i think that to use these tragedies to try to make a political point is not useful at this point. >> sean: we have a dead 22-year-old kid, stop. wait a minute. we have a dead police officer who has a 5-month-old kid. it's not using, it's about when is a government going to protect them? >> it is grotesquely unfair to use these anecdotes to
