PETE HEGSETH (CO-HOST): It’s all very unclear, Steve. This is -- let's rename it. It's illegal immigration day. This a total reversal of everything the Trump administration stood for. And might I say, it's a return to the bipartisan consensus before Donald Trump that was effectively OK with borders being open, a pathway to citizenship, massive illegal immigration, and catch-and-release programs that were never effective and always created a magnet for people to come to this country. So, of course there’s a huge misrepresentation of why children were separated from families at the border in the first place. It's like anyone who commits a crime is separated from their kids; when they do that, eventually you would like to see them reunited. But they made it out as if it was intentionally a draconian policy and now they’ve created an entire caricature around it. How much money they’ll spend on that -- it’ll be billions while they try to take down the border wall, guys. Get rid of the remain-in-Mexico policy, which opens the door again for catch and release and ultimately continues sanctuary city policies which all lead up to we are open for illegal immigration.
