let's fix the system that caused this problem before we reward those who came here unlawfully. >> isn't the problems, though, we already have 11 million employed, undocumented people in this country, and if they are deported, you're going to have a situation like you had in hazelton, pennsylvania where the economy collapses because all of the small businesses go out of business because they're owned by latinos or in alabama where a school system nearly collapsed when they passed their law? the estimates are, it cost $1.2 trillion to deabort the 11 million undocumented people here already in the labor force. that can't possibly be good for american jobs if you're deporting people who create wealth. >> howard, we're not talking about deporting anyone. what we're talking about what caused the problem. let's fix our system, let's have a workable immigration system and operational control of our borders. then we'll have the trust of the american people to deal with those who are already here. >> senator, will you let the -- will you let the brainiac limit go up? will you let the students who

you know, the truth is law enforcement knows the damage that unlawfully purchased firearms are doingd in the suburbs where the mass killings occur. no one is standing up for the victims right now on the other side. and it's just unconscionable that they should attempt to make sport of the victims that came to testify from the heart about the impact these laws, the lack of laws, have had on their lives. i was at the judiciary committee hearing. senator cruz and others managed to walk out of the room before anybody from newtown had a answer to share their pain with them. that's the degree of compassion they have. this is not about the second amendment. this is about commerce, big money, fear and political calllatiocal calculation. the only profile in courage award will go to manchin, mccain, senator collins, people who had the guts to vote for the public interest. the president was right yesterday. it was a shameful moment. we're going to remember. we in the police chiefs profession are going to continue to advocate for policies that will protect american citizens from violence perpetr

this regulatory agency by endorsing the operations of companies that are operating in the city unlawfully, unregulated, unlicensed. and for the mayor to do that i mean it seems disgrace full to me. those companies are providing uncontrolled competition. their numbers are growing day by day and the direction that is solution is taking of putting out more taxis to meet more of their vehicles to take back taxi share from us. i don't think that's going to work. there's a very influential article that goes back a few decades called the tragedy of the common sense where, you know, the farmers use a common area to grace their cattle and, you know, farmers this farmer puts another cow an and another farmer puts a cow on it and pretty soon that's their individual benefit to do it but the cows are staffing. we in this situation are the cows senator something has to be done >> (calling names). >> at the april 6th accounting vote of this task force the vote was to find a violation of the speaking times 5 to 4, however, one member of the task force does not show so it failed for the affirm active vote

the only criminal convictions we could find why were back in the early 1990s for unlawfully carrying a weapon and writing a bad check. police have not connected him to the murders. >> at this time there is nothing to link mr. morale to the murders of mike and cynthia mcclelland or mark hasy. >> so investigators are still contacting people who may have a grudge against the d.a.'s office. we now know that this man, eric williams, a former justice of the peace in kaufman county met with cops just hours after the murders were discovered. they took his cell phone and tested his hands for gun residue. williams lost his job and his law license after being convicted of theft. his attorney says he has nothing to hide and is not guilty of this crime. >> shepard: dan, are authorities saying anything publicly about a possible connection to this aryan brotherhood? >> yeah. they are saying almost nothing about their investigation. of course, this aryan brotherhood connection or possible connection has been out there because the d.a.'s office got a big conviction of a leader last year and they were

been two years long, debate about what to do about 800,000 people who were in the united states unlawfully. and through that debate, they worked out an accommodation. and 800,000 was more or less generally understood to be a million people and ronald reagan in his honest way was reluctantly to sign the 1986 amnesty act. when he did that. he promised we would get enforcement and immigration law would be than forced with the united states government and that was a promise that was made by this congress and promise that was made by the president of the united states, ronald reagan, who was trust worth as any president in my lifetime and one i have long admired and only let me down twice in eight years. but he made a commitment to enforce the 1986 amnesty act. i called it amnesty. the definition thn is what we have today. to grant amnesty is to pardon law breakers and reward them. what happened back in 1986? the people were pardonned with some exceptions. those who had violent criminals and some others. but they were pardonned and given a legalization and exchange was that were in the united s

to do is undermine the ability of federal courts to safeguard farmers and the environment from unlawfully approved and potentially hazardous genetically engineered crops. over the past six or seven years, numerous federal courts have struck down approvals of genetically engineered crops by the u.s. department of agriculture. essentially stating that they failed to adequately consider the environmental and economic harms that they may have. this rider essentially seeks to go over the heads and handcuff the judiciary and at the same time compels the secretary of agriculture to approve permits or partial deregulations for planting of these crops even when they've been found by federal courts to be harmful. >> john: of course, this isn't permanent, correct? this is not the law of the land forever. >> this currently only exists and is the law of the land for the next six months during the life of the cr. however, if they have their way special interests would like to grandfather this into permanent law. >> john: i'm heartened by the outcry on facebook of so many americans aware of it and are b

the immigration laws enacted by congress and has instead created his own immigration system that unlawfully provides protections for millions of illegal aliens. has done, congress nothing to stop the president, and i submit to everyone that america will never have an gration system as ng as presidents and their appointees are permitted to ignore the u.s. congress and pick and choose the laws they will enforce, and indeed, in actor own laws without congress through agency policy. this bill does nothing to address these problems. in fact, unbelievably, it gives far greater authority and control to the president and the secretary of dhs. exactly the opposite of what our country needs to create a consistent and effective immigration system. if the laws enacted by congress are not enforced by the executive, america has the promise of future enforcement. that much is certain. immigration agents have fought a lawsuit against dhs because both have in -- fused toor immigration laws enacted by congress. cannot indivfor entering the s illegally or overstaying pieces. agents are prohibited from enforci

, then ale -- felony and unlawfully in the united states, then we'll go ahead and deport them. they'll get a similar treatment -- the president's aunt who was adjudicated for deportation, lived in the country illegally for years after that, finally she surfaced again and they granted her asylum status because if she went back to kenya she would be subject to kidnap and ransom. same goes with the president. i guess that's the same for the president's uncle omar, he had already been adjudicated for deportation. we would know if he was still in the united states of america. the president doesn't -- the law didn't apply to the president's relation, and i guess in order to conform with that, the president would like to exempt everybody from the same law that his family has been exempted from. i disagree. congress writes the laws. the president's job is to carry them out. in this gang of eight's legislation, it's instantaneous amnesty for everybody, and that's breathtaking in the magnitude of it. they say 11 million. i say 11 million, 12 million, more likely 20 million. and here's wh

the needs of the country as a whole and the fact that we have 11 million or more people who were unlawfully in the country. we are in the process not drawing any conclusions about the best solutions to move forward. we are very interested in what you send ng of eight has written -- in what the senate ng of eight has written. -- gang of eight has written. we believe the appropriate thing to do is for the house to begin this process. starting this week, we will be introducing individual pieces of the overall immigration puzzle. we are also very interested in what the house gang of eight produces. they have been working on this process for a long time and we are very hopeful they can reach a bipartisan agreement on what will be done to address these major aspects of immigration reform. legal immigration reform, enforcement, and what to do about the legal status of the 11 million or more people who are here unlawfully. once bc but the house group produces produces, we will also be focusing on that and look at how the individual bills we are going to start introducing this week, and we will have

we are talking about people who have been unlawfully in this country, who have been working hard in thisthemselves to investigation and have a path to citizenship and i hope we can keep our eye on moving forward at the same time as we obviously ask the tough questions on what happened. >>heather: there is something that made them different. they immigrated here from a country with known terrorist ties on radar for a while. should we do something like peter king was talking about, at the least, have extra vetting when people want to come from people like chechnya? >> we do, but they came when they were boys. i think the danger here, they came when they were little boys. their father said, we moved away to avoid that war. they grew up upper middle class or middle class in russia and came here. the danger is we not, because it is the next day, in effect, take one set of problems and look to a very challenging area. we have a challenging immigration issue. it has a lot of issues it needs to solve. one issue it doesn't need to solve is what happened at the boston marathon. the cardinal said,

in the early '90s he had conviction for unlawfully carrying a weapon and writing a bad check. this is important. police have not connected him to the murders. >> at this time there is nothing to link mr. morel to the murders of mike and cynthia mclittle land or mark hasse. >> reporter: we're learning more about the murder of mark hasse from a witness who emerged. the killer emerged with a revolver shooting hasse in the back of the head several times. he set off in a silver sedan with no front or back license flights. that tells professional investigators, that this is no professional hit. driving a license plate not in the front or back that is easy way to. that is mcvay got caught after the oklahoma city bombing. martha: to figure out any links in the evidence in these two cases that will point them in the direction what kind of killer this was and what the motive could have been. we know sadly the memorial service will be underway for mike and cynthia mclelland who were much-loved in that community, dan. >> reporter: that will take place at 1:00 today, not here in kaufman bu

it's when you enter unlawfully.wed to be there and commit a crime therein and the crime is a blatant violation of your fourth amendment privileges against privacy. and blatant and everything i'm saying is wrong? i heard some-- >> that's what i heard, too. >> go for it. >> i'm not sure, did you say that everything is wrong. >> the fourth amendment, not everything. i was just-- the fourth amendment only applies to states or governments, but the law in kentucky prohibits individuals from wire tapping and it provides very clearly that unless one recoparty to the conversation consents there's a separate violation, when you illegally bugged an office and i think it's much more serious, frankly than if you go in and steal my pencil, this is an invision of personal privacy and it's a clear violation of criminal law. >> you got to where i was going to, and-- >> i'm sorry. >> i just wanted to give a little background. >> i'm sorry, i thought i was off mic. >> that's okay, there would be a big difference, if there was someone,

1986 and you can see that we screwed up bau a th p we only had three people crossing the border unlawfully. now there are 12 million people that have. as some of the authors of that bill have emphasized, the border security and economic opportunity and immigration modernization act is a starting point. now, there are 92 other senators that must get their chance to amend and improve this bill in a deliberative process. let me begin by saying that a critical part of the bill we are discussing is the first 59 pages. as people read through it, i hope you will pay special attention to those 59 pages. this is the border security section that triggers the kickoff of legalization. because if we do not secureur o borders up from, there will be no political will and pressure from legalization advocates to do it later. the bill requires the secretary of homeland security within six months that a bill is signed into law to submit a comprehensive southern border security strategy, as well as a southern border fencing strategy. after those so-called plans are submitted to congress, the secondary can sta

and in other words they got here somehow, through either immigration or lawfully or unlawfully. they stayed here. they planned it. they lived here. they possibly lived in cambridge or in the summerville area which is where i live, and then they sort of they went after what's not a soft target, but a low grade target like the boston marathon. lots of activity, not something very hard to do. for those of us in the field, we've always wondered sort of why isn't that happening more, because we've gotten so fortified. we've anticipated it. and if this is true, this is it, i want to tell everyone, though, the good news is that i know it's hard to believe in good news, is these are terrorists who cannot plan a major event. so while monday was devastating, the successes of our counterterrorism efforts have made these sort of, you know, sort of like whack-a-mole is how we described it in government, sort of brothers getting together and planning an event. so there is going to be a lot to learn. how did they get here? how did they stay here? and it is, you know, it is something that we ha

deliberative in 1986, and we screwed up because at that point we only had three people crossing the border unlawfully. now there's 12 million people that have. as some of the authors of that bill have emphasized, the border security and economic opportunity and immigration modernization act is a starting point. now, there are 92 other senators that must get their chance to amend and improve this bill in a deliberative process. let me begin by saying that a critical part of the bill that we're discussing is the first 59 pages. and as people read through this bill, i hope you'll pay special attention to those 59 pages. this is the border security section that triggers the kickoff of legalization. because if we don't secure our borders up front, there will be no political will and pressure from legalization advocates to too it later. to summarize, the bill requires the secretary of homeland security, within six months that a bill is signed into law, to submit a comprehensive southern border security strategy as well as a southern border security fencing strategy. after those so-called plans are submitte

distribution chain in america, at least one link in that chain is carried out by someone who is unlawfully present in the united states. the cost of those illegal drugs on our society i don't know has been quantified, that trade itself has been estimated to be something above $40 billion, perhaps something above $60 billion a year. i would ask the gentleman from pennsylvania if his experience would reflect that to be true? mr. barletta texas it is absolutely true. i'll give you an example. we arrested a young man for selling cocaine on a playground , the man was in the country illegally. took our detectives five hows to determine who he was, he had five social security cards, he had five identities, law enforcement had no idea who they are dealing with, many, many are here under fraudulent documentation rings, fraudulent documents. those that are involved in the criminal element, in the gangs or in drug trades, i do not believe will be coming forward, no matter what laws we pass here and we could pass all the laws in the world if we don't enforce the laws of this country and if we don't al

but they're going to say, if you came into the united states and you're unlawfully present in america, they, under their bill, will instantaneously legalize everyone who's here illegally with some exceptions. some of the exceptions would be, if you've been guilty of a felony or if you're convicted of three misdemeanors, not serious but three misdemeanors, and then if you have been in the united states since december 31 of 2011, here's the inadmirable, can't be admitted -- ined a missable, can't be admitted. no definition of other morality grounds. if you're previously here before december 31, 2011. why is that? well, i think that probably is a date when they began talking openly about their plan so they don't want to have the responsibility of being a magnet that's attracted people to come into the united states illegally in order to access the amnesty plan that they're devising in the senate and they're devising behind closed doors here in the house. now, amnesty, some of them have even tried to define amnesty. i've consistently defined it, mr. speaker. to grant amnesty is to pardon

unlawfully using and conspiring to use a weapon of mass destruction resulting in death and malicious destruction of property. anything surprise you with what he has been charged with and hasn't? >> reporter: no, not what he has been charged with. this is fully what we expected. it's a charge that could carry the death penalty in the federal system. massachusetts doesn't have the death penalty in the state system. he is a ehe's not charged with killing the campus policeman. they could possibly include it in a later indictment or perhaps the state could bring charges. >> so the suspect is gravely injured. he's in a hospital bed and he is's answering did we act alone, were we affiliated with any larger terror group. he says no to that question. do the authorities think his answers are credible? >> reporter: well, they don't know. this is one thing they're going to have to check out, but he has said they were not in touch with any overseas groups, that they came up with the plan on their own motivated by islamic religious fervor. he says they got their instructions on how to make their b

they needed to be affirmed in their duties on a daily basis out confronting people unlawfully here, violating various laws and having to remove them from the country as we've always done and every country does when people violate their law. and they have been undermined in that and their morale has plummeted. and the secretary hasn't even talked to them. i tell you who else hasn't talked to them. the people who wrote this bill: chris crane, the head of the association, wrote, called, publicly asked the opportunity to participate in these discussions and at least tell them what the real world is like. but, no, they had the chamber of commerce, they had the ag people, they have certain union officials, they have la raza, they have all been meeting and talking, but not the people who are out there struggling every day trying to make sure we have a lawful system. and that's what the american people are asking for. the american people are not angry at people who want to come to america. we believe in immigration. we're going to see immigration continue. no one is suggesting that's going to end. bu

if we unlawfully seek to expand that purpose we harm only ourselves and our armed forces, who are legitimately carrying out armed conflict in limited particular areas in afghanistan. and the constitutional right that would have been violated here had we held the defendant in military custody would have been all of the rights to counsel, the right not to be questioned involuntarily and i think the caller is exactly right to say we must understand that the laws of war have a limit and this is an act of suspected terrorism and our criminal justice system can deal with that for a crime that was committed by a u.s. citizen on a u.s. soil and alleged to be committed. host: here are some tweets. anyone placing a bomb is an enemy to citizens. they are terrorists. host: we did see them charged -- he, the surviving brother -- charged with weapons of mass destruction. how does that influence or affect how he should be treated? guest: it has no effect on that. the definition of weapons of mass destruction is a very broad one under the statute and there is no impact on treatment there. the issue will be fo
