•   January 11, 2019

Does President Donald Trump have the authority to declare the situation at the border a national emergency? What should happen at the border? Reps. Jim Jordan of Ohio, Mark Green of Tennessee, and Chip Roy of Texas join to share their views.

We also cover these stories:

  • Trump again suggested he might declare a “national emergency” if he can’t get a deal for the wall.
  • Trump announces that, due to the shutdown, he will cancel his trip to Davos, Switzerland, where he was slated to participate in the World Economic Forum.
  • In a speech in Cairo, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo made very clear America’s apology tour days are over.

Today, even with President Trump’s victory, leftist elites have their tentacles in every aspect of our government.

The Daily Signal’s own Tyler O’Neil exposes this leftist cabal in his new book, The Woketopus: The Dark Money Cabal Manipulating the Federal Government.

In this book, O’Neil reveals how the Left’s NGO apparatus pursues its woke agenda, maneuvering like an octopus by circumventing Congress and entrenching its interests in the federal government.
