i just want to quote you, on something, gerry, you talked about why don't we compromise on quote-unquote part of the wall. the problem is, that this $5.7 billion would only fund part of a wall. i have heard estimates like, the lowest estimate i've heard is about $30 billion that such a wall would cost, up to about $60 billion, that such a wall would cost. i have heard from all nine congressional, nine members of congress, who represent border areas, with mexicans, with mexico, have said that the terrain, and the ability to seize land from private homeowners, would really be something too great to overcome. and it is not really practical. including representative will hurt, of texas, a republican, who was also a cia operative, someone who of course is very close to the notion of how illegal drugs and others flow into our country, drugs, and so on. and he is adamantly opposed to building such a wall. just real candid, build a wall over the mountains and the rio grande. so if we were to quote-unquote compromise on the wall, i think that we would set ourselves up for continuous blackmail fro

i mean, they had to know that this, quote/unquote, zero tolerance policy that they put into place woulde separated at the border because you can't detain children as if they were criminals like you would the adult parents who came across illegally. so both sides i think are playing politics here, but -- and that's exactly why i think the bureau would be very, very hesitant to open a real investigation. >> blake, let's talk about the government shutdown, its impact for federal workers. day 31, payments have been missed. we've been showing heartbreaking images of federal employees over the weekend having to go to food banks to get food. the president has given two critical speeches about this government shutdown, a state of the union address as well as the one that we saw on saturday. he mentioned drugs, he mentioned gangs, he mentioned crime. he has never once in either of those two statements by our account mentioned the federal workers. what is going on with this white house that they are not even able to express any sympathy or outrage for what is happening to these federal workers in
