STUART I COULD DEBATE THAT ALL
DAY LONG.
HILLARY, THANK YOU VERY MUCH,
INDEED.
NATIONAL BORDER PATROL COUNCIL
PRESIDENT BRANDON JUDD IS WITH
ME.
YOU ENDORSED THIS BILL.
BUT IN THE PAST YOU’VE SAID WE
DON’T NEED LEGISLATION, WE JUST
NEED THE PRESIDENT TO ENFORCE
THE LAW.
WHAT CHANGED YOUR MIND?
>> NOTHING’S CHANGED MY MIND.
I STILL AGREE WITH THAT.
WE NEED THE PRESIDENT TO ENFORCE
THE LAW.
BUT ABSENT HIM ENFORCING THE
LAW, WE DO NEED BILLS THAT’S
GOING TO FORCE HIM TO DO THAT.
I’M LOOKING AT THIS FROM REAL
WORLD APPLICATION.
RIGHT NOW AS WE SPEAK THERE ARE
NO CAPS TO ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION.
AS MANY PEOPLE THAT CROSS THE
BORDER ILLEGALLY, WE HAVE TO
TAKE THEM UNDER CUSTODY.
UNDER THIS BILL THERE WOULD BE A
CAP AT 5,000.
SO IF WE LOOK AT DECEMBER, WE
HAD 12,000 DAILY APPREHENSIONS.
THIS WOULD CAP IT AT 5,000.
AND THAT CAP DOES NOT MEAN THAT
WE RELEASE 5,000.
BUT THEN LET’S LOOK AT
YESTERDAY.
YESTERDAY WE APPREHENDED 6,5500
PEOPLE THAT -- 6500 PEOPLE.
OF THOSE 6500 PEOPLE, AT LEAST
85 ARE BEING RELEASED.
UNDER -- 85 ARE -- 85% ARE BEING
RELEASED.
SO THERE’S A LOT LESS PEOPLE
THAT GET RELEASED UNDER THIS
BILL.
SO THERE’S A LOT OF THINGS IN
THERE.
THERE’S A LOT OF MECHANISMS THAT
ARE GOOD.
SO REAL WORLD APPLICATION, IF WE
WERE TO APPLY THIS BILL TODAY,
WE WOULDN’T BE RELEASING EVEN
CLOSE E TO WHAT A WE’RE
RELEASING RIGHT NOW.
STUART: HAVE YOU TALKED TO TRUMP
AT -- ABOUT THIS BILL?
>> I HAVEN’T.
LOOK, I UNDERSTAND WHERE HE’S
COMING FROM.
I UNDERSTAND THAT HE’S SAYING
THAT WHAT I DID WAS AMAZING, AND
IT WAS AMAZING.
AND I FULLY SUPPORT EVERYTHING
THAT HE DID ON THE BORDER, AND I
FULLY SUPPORT WHAT HE’S GOING TO
DO ON THE BORDER.
BUT THIS BILL TRANSCENDS
ADMINISTRATIONS.
THIS WILL GO BEYOND BIDEN.
IT WILL GO BEYOND TRUMP.
IT WILL GO BEYOND THE NEXT
PRESIDENT.
SO I’M LOOKING AT THIS FROM THE
STANDPOINT OF WE NEED SOMETHING
THAT IS GOING TO CONTINUE TO GO
PAST AND NOT JUST EXECUTIVE
ORDERS.
WHAT HE’S GOING TO DO IS GOING
TO BE AMAZING.
WHAT HE DID WAS AMAZING.
BUT WE NEED BILLS THAT ARE GOING
TO LAST PAST PRESIDENT TRUMP.
FINISH.
STUART: IF THIS BILL FAILS,
WOULDN’T THAT FORCE PRESIDENT
BIDEN TO START USING EXECUTIVE
ORDERS?
>> NO, I DON’T THINK THAT HE’S
EVER GOING TO USE EXECUTIVE
ORDERS.
I THINK THAT HE’LL GO INTO THE
ELECTION SAYING THAT, HEY, I’M
GOING TO CONTINUE ON WHAT I’M
DOING.
THAT’S WHAT HE’S DONE TO THIS
POINT.
SO HE CAN’T AFFORD TO LOSE HIS
BASE.
IF THIS BILL WERE THE PASS, E
WOULD THROW HIS HANDS IN THE AIR
AND SAY, HEY, CONGRESS DID IT.
I UNDERSTAND THAT FROM A
POLITICAL STANDPOINT.
I UNDERSTAND POLITICS, AND I CAN
UNDERSTAND WHY REPUBLICANS WOULD
GO AGAINST THIS FOR POLITICAL
PURPOSES.
I GET THAT.
THERE IS THAT AS ASPECT TO IT.
AGAIN, I AM GOING TO LOOK AT A
REAL WORLD APPLICATION IF AS IT
WOULD PERTAIN TO THE BORDER
TODAY.
STUART: BIDEN SAYS IMPEACHMENT
EFFORTS EXISTENCE HOMELAND
SECURITY CHIEF -- AGAINST
HOMELAND SECURITY CHIEF MAYORKAS
ARE BASELESS AND
UNCONSTITUTIONAL.
WHAT DO YOU MAKE OF THOSE
COMMENTS?
>> THAT’S A FLAT-OUT LIE.
THEY ARE NOT BASE WITHLESS OR
UNCONSTITUTIONAL.
LOOKED AT WHAT MAYORKAS IS
CURRENTLY DOING ON THE BACK END.
EVERY SINGLE TIME WE RELEASE
PEOPLE INTO THE UNITED STATES,
THE MOMENT THEY DO NOT SHOW UP
TO THEIR COURT APPEARANCE, THEY
ARE IN VIOLATION OF THAT RELEASE
ORDER.
BY LAW, HE IS REQUIRED TO GO
AFTER THOSE INDIVIDUALS, AND
HE’S NOT DOING IT.
IF THEY’RE DEPORTED IN ABSENTIA
IS, HE’S REQUIRED TO GO AFTER
THOSE INDIVIDUALS TO ENSURE THAT
THEY LEAVE THE COUNTRY.
HE’S NOT DOING THAT.
THAT’S WHAT THE LAW REQUIRES HIM
TO DO.
HE IS NOT FOLLOWING THE LAW, AND
HE HAS TO BE HELD RESPOND.
STUART: IF HE IS IMPCHED AND
REMOVED, NOTHING CHANGES.
>> NO, NO, IT WON’T CHANGE.
BUT IT WILL AT LEAST SHOW THAT
PEOPLE WILL BE HELD RESPONSIBLE
IF THEY DON’T DO THE JOB.
AND IF THE NEXT PERSON DOESN’T
DO IT, THE NEXT PERSON SHOULD BE
IMPEACHED AS WELL.
STUART: ALL RIGHT.
BRANDON JUDD, GOOD STUFF.
OF THANKS VERY MUCH FOR JOINING
