Fox News anchor Bret Baier held his highly anticipated interview on Wednesday with Vice President Kamala Harris and it did not pull any punches.
Harris repeatedly sidestepped questions about her record, including when Baier pressed her about her administration’s record on immigration. Harris constantly ignored questions and instead attacked former President Donald Trump numerous times.
Baier also shared a “behind the scenes” picture of himself and Harris during the interview.
Baier began the interview by grilling Harris on how many illegal immigrants were released by the Biden administration into the country since they took over over three years ago.
“Well, I’m glad you raised the issue of immigration, because I agree with you,” Harris responded. “It is a topic of discussion that people want to rightly have. And you know what I’m going to talk about-”
“But just a number,” Baier pressed. “Do you think it’s 1 million? 3 million?”
“Bret, let’s just get to the point, ok?” Harris said. “The point is that we have a broken immigration system that needs to be repaired.”
Baier said DHS believes that 6 million illegal aliens had been let into the country. He then asked her about the decision by the Biden administration to undo policies from the Trump administration, such as “Remain in Mexico,” and how that decision is connected to the release of violent criminals.
“So looking back, do you regret the decision to terminate Remain in Mexico at the beginning of your administration?” Baier asked.
The “Special Report” host then talked about the high-profile killings of Jocelyn Nungaray, Rachel Morin, and Laken Riley. All three were killed by dangerous illegal immigrants who came to the U.S. during the Biden administration.
Local authorities have been utilizing various channels, including 911 reports, the NC 211 call center, and social media, to locate individuals reported missing or in need of welfare checks. Many instances of missing persons have been resolved as communication systems were restored and families were able to reconnect.
Governor Cooper has taken swift action by signing the state’s first relief package to address the devastation caused by Hurricane Helene. The relief package allocates $273 million for immediate needs and provides flexibility to agencies and displaced residents. The funding will also support state and local disaster assistance programs and ensure essential services like public-school nutrition are maintained.
The recovery process in Western North Carolina will be a challenging journey, but with the continued support of government agencies, first responders, and the community, the region is poised to rebuild and recover from the impact of Hurricane Helene. The spirit of resilience and solidarity displayed by North Carolinians in the face of adversity serves as a testament to the strength and determination of the people in overcoming the crisis.
“You said repeatedly that the border was secure, when in your mind, did it start becoming a crisis?” Baier then asked.
“We’ve had a broken immigration system transcending, by the way, Donald Trump’s administration, even before. Let’s all be honest about that,” Harris said. “I have no pride in saying that this is a perfect immigration system. I’ve been clear. I think we all know that it needs to be fixed. We need more- I was just down at the border talking with border agents… we need more judges. We need to process those cases faster. We need the support for cases that should be prosecuted. They need more resources, and Congress, ultimately, is the only place that that’s going to get fixed, Bret. That’s how this system works.”
Baier asked Harris if she still supports transgender surgeries for illegal aliens in jail that are paid for by taxpayers. Harris quickly switched the subject to Trump.
