Hallie Jackson: “In That Interview, The Vice President Repeated That Claim That Has Been Debunked As Misleading About The Number Of Suspected Terrorists Or Immigrants Coming Across The Southern Border.” [Today, NBC, 1/8/19; VIDEO]
Joe Scarborough: “Willie, From Six To Thousands. Mike Pence, The Vice President, Lying To The Government Again. You Have The Head Of The Department Of The Homeland Security Lying About Thousands, The President Of The United States Lying About Thousands.” JOE SCARBOROUGH: “Willie, from six to thousands. Mike pence, the vice president, lying to the government again. You have the head of the department of the homeland security lying about thousands, the president of the united States lying about thousands, you have Sarah Huckabee Sanders, the president’s spokesperson, lying about it. And they’re all doing this, just like that they lied about the caravan and the gang members flooding across the southern border, all to justify this government shutdown and to justify the president going on tonight, making up an emergency so he can build his wall along the southern border? It’s outrageous.” [Morning Joe, MSNBC, 1/8/19; VIDEO]
Willie Geist: “We’ve Heard From The President, Vice President, Homeland Security, Sarah Sanders All On TV As Terrorists Are Streaming Across The Southern Border And If We Don’t Build A Wall, That Are Going To Come To America And Kill Us. That Is Not Happening.” WILLIE GEIST: “It is, Joe. And the quote yesterday, there’s a humanitarian and national security crisis on our southern border. Let’s be as clear as we possibly can be. There is no national security crisis at the border. Richard Haas, what you have here, the argument distilled down, we’ve heard from the president, vice president, homeland security, Sarah Sanders all on TV as terrorists are streaming across the southern border and if we don’t build a wall, that are going to come to America and kill us. That is not happening. The numbers bear it out, the evidence bears it out and this is all so president trump can deliver on chants he initiate during his rallies ‘build that wall’ during his presidential campaign. It’s theater and a show tonight.” [Morning Joe, MSNBC, 1/8/19; VIDEO]
