    Nobody believes, certainly I don’t that you can just build a fence, pat yourself on the back and say ‘hey, look we secured the border’ because people can cut holes in fences, they can come over it and they can come around it. So, you need to have a solution comprised of people, technology and in some places physical barriers- but it’s got to be a combination.

    Answer:

    Listen to: U.S. Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-CA)

    “We all believe that the border security has to come first. That’s not a problem. What is a problem is the inability to get anything done, for example to provide a desperately needed workforce for agriculture in America.”

    Were 42 House members right in refusing to support a House resolution commemorating the holy Muslim month of Ramadan?

    Answer:

    Listen to: U.S. Rep. Keith Ellison (D-MN)

    This is not about politics. This is about the faith of about 1.6 billion people in this world. I think it would have been better if they wanted to talk about it.
