Matt Schlapp on the battle over border wall funding

Matt Schlapp discusses Nancy Pelosi, the border wall, and the possibility of a 2020 Senate run.
The House Committee on Homeland Security on Friday requested an appearance from Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen to discuss border security issues, including President Trump’s long-promised border wall and the care of illegal immigrant children in U.S. custody who crossed into the country.
To start the letter, committee chairman Rep. Bennie G. Thompson, D-Miss., condemned the president’s plan for a border wall, funding for which has been a sticking point in negotiations between Democrats and Republicans to end the government’s ongoing partial shutdown.
“Your border security presentation submitted to Congress today is yet another example of the misinformation and outright lies the Trump Administration has used to make the case for the President’s boondoggle border wall, defend the government shutdown, and distract the American people from a border policy so flawed that children have died in Department of Homeland Security custody,” Thompson wrote.
