HOUR ONE

“Whatever it takes!” Rep. Mario Diaz Balart (R-FL) weighed in on Obama’s immigration plans and what border control measures need to be taken.  “Whatever we have to do to secure our border, we have to do it… There has to be zero tolerance. And border security is more than just securing on the actual border, which is essential; it’s also interior security,” Diaz said.

HOUR TWO

Democratic strategist Joe Trippi weighed in on the ongoing undercuts about FOX News that politicians on the left have been saying, including Senator Mary Landrieu and President Obama.  “I just don’t understand. I think progressives should be talking to the FOX audience making our case, which is what I try to do, and try to win some folks over,” Trippi said, “I just think it’s a bad strategy.”
