joining me right now is arizona congressman, member of the house judiciary committee andy biggs, always a pleasure to see you. thank you very much for being here. you're helping to lead this effort. tell us about this most recent rule coming out of the administration and its impacts. >> yeah, so what they want to do is they want to basically allow an immediate determination that someone is going to be determined to stay in the country and pursue an asylum claim. that's contrary to law. they want to do that by rule and what that's going to do is a couple of things, number 1, you're going to have -- it's basically putting the catch and release program that we are seeing right now on steroids and violates parole limitations of title 8 and detention provisions of title 8 and entice more people to come and that's kind of like the last thing he needs to do because biden, the biden policies continue to entice people to come and when you know that you're going to be turned and released into the country immediately, people -- there's no reason to stay home and so the cartels are advertising all

judiciary committee senate yesterday is that he is not admitting that he made a mistake, he is not being transparent to the pro-he compounded the issue. >> have congressman great to see you as always thanks so much lee zeldin the gdp right after this. stay with us. . . for your full financial picture. with the right balance of risk and reward. so you can enjoy more of...this. this is the planning effect. ♪ ♪ traveling has always been our passion, even with his parkinson's. but then he started seeing things that weren't there and believing things that weren't true. that worried us. during the course of their disease, around 50% of people with parkinson's may experience hallucinations or delusions. and these symptoms can get worse over time. nuplazid is the only approved medicine prescribed to significantly reduce hallucinations and delusions related to parkinson's. don't take nuplazid if you are allergic to its ingredients. nuplazid can increase the risk of death in elderly people with dementia-related psychosis and is not for treating symptoms unrelated to parkinson's disease. nuplaz

judiciary committee this week what do you want to hear? the curriculum decisions involved toxic racist ideology known as critical race theory, and we learned his son-in-law is among those pushing this, and selling producing extremely expensive surveys about critical race theory. should he recuse himselfsts from? step down with conflicts with son-in-law to wife in terms of involvement on some of the things he is pushing. >> i think fbi is, obviously, the premier law enforcement agency in the united states, they have important priorities whether violent crime international terrorism, human trafficking all kind of things that they have to deal with, and the suggestion that somehow now they are going to peel off resources, to focus on school board protests by parents, who disagree with what local school board is doing, is knelt asinine they need to focus on law enforcement the department of justice has no place in this uprising that we are seeing of parents that are concerned about what is happening in local schools, now political violence inv

joining me now is florida congressman greg steube, a member of the judiciary and foreign affairs committee. is mitch mcconnell caving again to joe biden? >> call me conservative but i don't understand why we would help the democrats when they've been in control of the house, the senate and have the white house since january. and if we're going to increase the debt limit to allow them to spend more money on socialist welfare programs, the democrats want to spend $5.5 trillion on top of a $1.2 trillion infrastructure package on top of the $11 trillion that we spent just in the last 18 months. i certainly didn't vote for the debt increase in the house. i'm not going to support it in the future. washington has a spending problem and until our leaders in washington realize that we can't continue to spend at this level, then we're going to continue to fall deeper into debt. maria: well, it's just extraordinary to me that you and your colleagues are not getting much from this. i mean, sure, we know that the u.s. is not going to default. the democrats can ensure that that is the case without the r
