With Chris Chmielenski, Jacki Deason and Shoshana Bryen
CHRIS CHMIELENSKI, Vice President and Deputy Director, Numbers USA, @NumbersUSA
- Chris Chmielenski, Vice President of Numbers USA, talks about how the cartels take advantage of America’s immigration process along the U.S.-Mexico border, “…in addition to those 3 million apprehensions…over the last 12 to 18 months. There’s also this ‘got aways’ number, this is the number of people that are crossing the border…but border patrol wasn’t there…And in many cases it was because they were dealing with a group of 300 people that had crossed the border. So we know that the drug cartels are controlling the border and they’re controlling the flow of people and they know the ones that are going to get released in the United States.”
JACKI DEASON, Host, The Jacki Daily Show, Senior Fellow, Texas Public Policy, @JackiDailyHost
- Jacki Deason, Host of the Jacki Daily Show, outlines Russia’s goals in Ukraine: “This is very common in warfare. Basically, if you can choke off the energy supply to the opposite side, you’re at a big advantage. And we saw this in the world wars…So we’re watching the Russians do exactly what you would expect. And I’ll also add that they’re going after ultimately strategically the shale fields of Ukraine.”
SHOSHANA BRYEN, Senior Director, Jewish Policy Center, @thejpc
- Shoshana Bryen talks about the Biden administration’s decision to revisit the Iran Nuclear Deal: “I would describe them as deliberate and unhelpful. It’s not that they don’t know better. They do know better. They’ve chosen to go this route again”
