Open border ideology is contempt for America: Steve Hilton

IT'S JUST THAT SIMPLE. WILLIAM THANK YOU VERY MUCH, LET'S BRING IN JASON CHAFFETZ, FOX NEWS CONTRIBUTOR AND STEVE HILTON, ALSO A FOX NEWS CONTRIBUTOR. GREAT TO SEE YOU BOTH GUYS. THANKS FOR BEING HERE. JASON, REMEMBER WHEN TRUMP FIRST TALKED ABOUT VENEZUELAN GANGS BEING HERE AND LET OUT OF PRISON. THE MEDIA WENT OH, GOD THIS IS TRUMP AGAIN. THIS IS AWFUL. THE SAME KIND OF LIES HAVE BEEN SPEWING SINCE 2016 WHEN HE CAME DOWN THE GOLD ESCALATOR. IT TURNS OUT IT WAS TRUE AND RIGHT AND WHAT KILLS ME IF YOU LOOK AT ROOT CAUSES FOR ALL OF THIS , IT GOES BACK TO WHAT KAMALA HARRIS WAS SAYING BEFORE ABOUT DECRIMINALIZING ILLEGAL ENTRY INTO THE UNITED STATES. LET ME JUST ROLL TAPE FROM I THINK THIS IS FROM 2019. ROLL IT. >> RAISE YOUR HAND IF YOU THINK IT SHOULD BE A CIVIL OFFENSE RATHER THAN A CRIME TO CROSS A BORDER WITHOUT DOCUMENTATION? CAN WE KEEP THE HANDS UP SO WE CAN SEE THEM? DAVID: BIDEN TIMIDLY PUTTING HIS HAND UP WHERE FIRST PERSON UP WAS KAMALA HARRIS, JASON. >> YEAH, SHE'S BEEN AN OPEN BORDERS PERSON FOR A LONG TIME. SHE DOES NOT BELIEVE THAT THERE SHOULD BE ANY SORT OF COORDINATION WHEN THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT. DEMOCRATS TAKE THIS POSITION AND SAY OH, IT'S A FEDERAL ISSUE BUT THEN THERE ARE SANCTUARY STATES AND CITIES SO IF THEY DO CATCH SOMEBODY AND REMEMBER THIS IS THE CRIMINAL ELEMENT. THE CRIMINAL ELEMENT OF THE ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION PROBLEM, AND THEY WON'T TAKE THOSE SAME PEOPLE WHO HAVE COMMITTED CRIMES OR ALLEGEDLY COMMITTED CRIMES AND DO THAT WITH THE FEDS, IN PARTICULAR, I.C.E., TO GET THEM OUT OF THOSE COMMUNITIES AND HAVE THEM DEPORTED SO IN MANY WAYS THEY ARE TREATED BETTER AND SOFTER AND EASIER THAN THEY ARE AN AMERICAN CITIZEN WHO WOULD FACE MUCH MORE SEVERE CONSEQUENCES AND THEN THEY RUN RAMPANT AND THEY CAUSE THIS FEAR AND INTIMIDATION IN THESE COMMUNITIES AND THE GOVERNOR JUST LOOKS OUT OVER THERE AND SAYS OH, THAT'S JUST YOUR IMAGINATION. DAVID: YEAH, AND STEVE, HER TAKE ON THIS GOES WAY BACK. IT IS ROOTED, AGAIN ROOT CAUSE, IT IS ROOTED IN HER IDEOLOGY, IN HER VALUES IF YOU'LL USE HER NEW PHRASE. WAY BACK I THINK THIS IS FROM 2017 SHE PUT OUT A TWITTER, OR A TWEET SAYING AN UNDOCUMENTED IMMIGRANT IS NOT A CRIMINAL. I MEAN, WAY BACK THEN, AND SHE TRIED TO SNEAK AWAY FROM IT LAST NIGHT. I WANT TO PLAY A LITTLE CLIP FROM LAST NIGHT'S INTERVIEW WHERE SHE TRIES TO GETAWAY FROM HER PAST ON THIS ISSUE. ROLL IT. >> ONE OTHER QUESTION ABOUT SOMETHING THAT YOU SAID IN 2019 WHEN YOU FIRST RAN. THERE WAS A DEBATE YOU RAISED YOUR HAND WHEN ASKED WHETHER OR NOT THE BORDER SHOULD BE DECRIMINALIZED. DO YOU STILL BELIEVE THAT? >> I BELIEVE THERE SHOULD BE CONSEQUENCE. WE HAVE LAWS THAT HAVE TO BE FOLLOWED AND ENFORCED, THAT ADDRESS AND DEAL WITH PEOPLE WHO CROSS OUR BORDER ILLEGALLY AND THERE SHOULD BE CONSEQUENCES. DAVID: STEVE DO YOU BELIEVE THAT? >> WELL, WHAT DID SHE SAY? SHE DIDN'T SAY ANYTHING. IT'S A PERFECT EXAMPLE OF WHY MUCH OF THAT INTERVIEW WAS SUCH A JOKE. THERE WAS NO FOLLOW-UP TO SAY WHAT DO YOU MEAN BY CONSEQUENCES? WHAT KIND OF CONSEQUENCES? SHE DIDN'T TALK ABOUT CRIMINAL SANCTIONS OF ANY KIND, SO SHE COULD STILL HAVE THE SAME POSITION, SO IF YOU LOOK AT THAT INTERVIEW, SHE'S PRETTY CLEAR ABOUT FRACKING, OKAY, SHE DIDN'T GIVE ANY KIND OF SUBSTANTIVE EVIDENCE WE SHOULD IN ANY WAY BACK OFF WHAT SHE SAID A WHILE BACK. IT'S NOT THAT LONG AGO, A FAUCIW YEARS AGO SAYING SHE WOULD DECRIMINALIZE ILLEGAL ENTRY INTO THE UNITED STATES. SHE DID NOTHING LAST NIGHT TO COUNTER THAT IN ANY SUBSTANTIVE WAY, AND THE FINAL POINT I JUST WANT TO MAKE ON THIS TOPIC DAVID IS YOU USED THE TERM EARLIER RESPECT FOR THE LAW AND CONTEMPT FOR THE LAW. THIS WHOLE OPEN BORDERS IDEOLOGY IS CONTEMPT FOR AMERICANS AS WELL. CONTEMPT FOR OUR COUNTRY. NORMAL PEOPLE LOOK AT WHAT'S GOING ON TO SAY WHAT ARE THE PEOPLE IN CHARGE DOING JUST LETTING THIS HAPPEN YEAR AFTER YEAR AND THEN THEY TURNAROUND AND SAY OH, WE CAN'T SEND PEOPLE BACK TO THEIR COUNTRIES. WHY THE HELL NOT? WE'VE GOT THE BIGGEST ECONOMY IN THE WORLD. THE MOST POWERFUL MILITARY IN THE WORLD. IF WE WANT TO DO SOMETHING WE SHOULD BE ABLE TO DO IT WHEN PEOPLE ARE HERE ILLEGALLY WOULDN'T BE IN THE FIRST PLACE. DAVID: I DISAGREE WITH YOU PARTLY. BECAUSE IN VENEZUELA THEY AREN'T TAKEN BACK. THEY DON'T WANT THEM BACK AND THEY DON'T HAVE A GOOD RELATIONSHIP RIGHT NOW WITH THE US THAT WHEN THEY WERE COZYING UP TO THEM EARLIER IN THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION SO JASON, YOU BROUGHT UP ANOTHER POINT THAT WHAT'S HAPPENING ON THE LOCAL LEVEL, PARTICULARLY THE DISGRUNTLED FOLKS THAT LIVE IN DEPRESSED AREAS WHO HAVE LOST THE LITTLE BIT THAT THEY HAD, THE LITTLE PARKS THEY HAD, OR THE LITTLE FREE HEALTHCARE CENTERS THAT THEY HAD, THAT SORT OF THING. THAT'S BEING DIVERTED TO THE MIGRANTS SO I'M JUST WONDERING IF THERE'S A SEA CHANGE NOT JUST AT THE TOP OF THE BALLOT BUT DOWN AT THE BOTTOM OF THE BALLOT ON LOCAL ELECTIONS BECAUSE OF THIS. >> I HOPE SO, BECAUSE IF PEOPLE WANT TO RETAKE AND CLAIM TO THEIR COMMUNITIES THEY ARE GOING TO HAVE TO REALIZE THERE ARE TENS OF BILLIONS OF DOLLARS THAT ARE NOW BEING FUNNELED TO PEOPLE THAT ARE HERE ILLEGALLY AS OPPOSED TO TAKING I DON'T KNOW MAYBE LIKE A VETERAN WHOSE, YOU KNOW, HOMELESS AND STRUGGLING WITH MENTAL HEALTH ISSUES. THOSE TYPES OF THINGS. THE SCHOOL ROOMS, THE CLASSROOMS WHEN YOUR KIDS GO BACK-TO-SCHOOL THEN SUDDENLY A TEACHERS HAVING TO DEAL WITH FIVE KIDS WHO DON'T SPEAK ENGLISH. DO YOU THINK THAT'S GOING TO HAVE AN AFFECT ON THEIR COMMUNITY? ABSOLUTELY, AND BY THE WAY, KAMALA HARRIS SAYS OH, LET'S JUST THERE SHOULD BE CONSEQUENCES AND WE SHOULD ENFORCE THE LAW. WELL THE CURRENT LAW SAYS IF YOU DON'T COME, IF YOU COME INTO THIS COUNTRY, BETWEEN THE PORTS OF ENTRY, YOU'RE TO BE DETAINED AND DEPORTED, BUT THAT'S NOT WHAT SHE'S DOING SO IT'S AN EMPTY SUIT. WHEN SHE SAYS THAT THEY ARE GOING TO ENFORCE THE LAW, THEY AREN'T ENFORCING THE LAW. THAT'S THE PROBLEM. DONALD TRUMP WILL ENFORCE THE LAW. KAMALA HARRIS HAS NOT ENFORCED THE LAW AND SHE'S THE ONE IN CHARGE RIGHT NOW. DAVID: WELL AND STEVE IT'S SUCH A MESS RIGHT NOW BECAUSE YOU HAVE THE PROBLEM ON THE FEDERAL SIDE WHERE THEY AREN'T VETTING THE CREEPS COMING IN, SO THEY GET A FREE RIDE BY THE WAY INTO THE UNITED STATES AND THEY AREN'T VETTED, AND THEN YOU HAVE ON THE STATE LEVEL, AND SOMETIMES A LOCAL LEVEL, YOU HAVE THESE SANCTUARY STATE RULES OR SANCTUARY CITY RULES AND SOMETIMES THEY CONFLICT BECAUSE THE GOVERNOR OF COLORADO NOW, GOVERNOR POLIS IS SAYING THAT PEOPLE ARE IMAGINING THIS , THAT THE LOCAL FOLKS WHO THINK THAT THE VENEZUELANS ARE TAKING OVER HOUSING PROJECTS AND STUFF ARE JUST IMAGINING IT. WILL WE DON'T HAVE TO CMV MAJORITY IN. WE HAVE THE VIDEO TAPE. WE LITERALLY HAVE THE VIDEO TAPE AND HE'S DOING THE ULTIMATE IN GASLIGHTING CLAIMING WHAT WE ARE SEEING ON VIDEO THAT THE STUFF THAT'S HAPPENING THAT WE CAN LOOK AT AND SEE AND THE STUFF THAT PEOPLE ARE SUFFERING WITH ISN'T HAPPENING AT ALL. >> I MEAN, IT'S JUST SUCH AN INSULT TO EVERYBODY'S INTELLIGENCE AND YOU'RE ABSOLUTELY RIGHT ABOUT THE STATE AND LOCAL ASPECT OF THIS AS WELL AND YOU HAVE THEM HERE IN CALIFORNIA. I TALKED TO SHERIFFS THE WHOLE TIME. THEY'RE ABSOLUTELY AT THEIR WITTS END BECAUSE THEY HAVE ALL THIS CRIME GOING ON AND IT'S A SANCTUARY STATE THERE'S NOTHING THEY CAN DO ABOUT IT AND THE EXTENT PEOPLE HAVE TO UNDERSTAND. JUST I WAS IN THE CENTRAL VALLEY IN CALIFORNIA ONE OF THE GREATEST AGRICULTURAL AREAS IN THE WORLD. I WAS TALKING TO THE SHERIFFS. WHAT ARE THE MAIN CRIME ISSUES AND THEY SAID THE THEFT OF AGRICULTURAL EQUIPMENT. WHAT'S BEHIND THAT? WELL, THE CARTELS AND ARE BRANCHING OUT IF YOU CAN BELIEVE IT TO AGRICULTURE AND FARMING. THEY ARE TAKING OVER THE AVOCADO INDUSTRY SO GUESS WHAT THEY ARE DOING? TRAVELING UP AND DOWN THE CENTRAL VALLEY OF CALIFORNIA STEALING TRACTORS AND OTHER FARM EQUIPMENT, PUTTING THEM IN MASSIVE TRAIL OR S AND TAKING THEM TO MEXICO. I SAID HOW ON EARTH IS THAT EVEN POSSIBLE? WHY ISN'T IT BEING DETECTED? THEY CAN TRACK IT WITH ELECTRONIC TRACKERS, BECAUSE THEY CONTROL THE BORDER. THE SCALE OF THIS IS JUST RIDICULOUS. DAVID: THAT'S ANOTHER THING TRUMP SAYS. WE'VE ONLY SEEN THE BEGINNING. WE ONLY HAVE ABOUT 20 SECONDS BUT I'VE GOT TO GET YOUR VIEW ON THIS STEVE HILTON BECAUSE IT'S YOUR TERRITORY. THE NEW RADICAL PRIME MINISTER OF THE UK HAS THROWN OUT OR BANNED THIS WONDERFUL PORTRAIT OF MAGGIE THATCHER. HE'S TRYING TO ERASE HISTORY. ONE OF THE MOST SIGNIFICANT HISTORICAL FIGURES IN BRITISH HISTORY, IN POLITICS AT LEAST IN MODERN BRITISH HISTORY. MAGGIE THATCHER DOESN'T EXIST ANYMORE, WHAT'S GOING ON THERE? >> IT'S ABSOLUTELY, I'VE GOT TO TELL YOU I WORKED THERE AND IT'S A PRETTY SMALL PLACE. I USED TO, WE USED TO CALL IT THE THATCHER ROOM AND I USED TO LOVE HAVING MEETINGS THERE IT WAS MY FAVORITE PLACE TO HAVE MEETINGS. YOU COULD BOOK THE ROOMS, AND THERE SHE WAS LOOKING OVER US AS WE WERE AROUND THE TABLE AND INSPIRATION. SHE'S ONE OF OUR GREATEST-EVER LEADER IN THE UK. TOTAL DISRESPECT THAT SHOWS HOW FAR LEFT AND IDEOLOGICAL THEY'VE BECOME ON THAT SIDE OF THE FENCE. THEY HAVE NO RESPECT FOR ANYONE ELSE'S OPINION AND THIS IS A GREAT AND TERRIBLE EXAMPLE OF IT. DAVID: GENTLEMEN, GREAT TO HAVE YOU ON THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR BEING HERE.
