Published | Video Starts at 34:28

Mr. Chairman, did you by chance forget to invite the Democrats to this year? Well, I'm sometimes forgetful, sir, but we always officially notify the minority. I figured you did, sir. They've been invited. It's weird because they're always the first ones to run to the microphone. To talk about illegal immigrants, their children and well being. Yet when it comes to this topic, UACs, they don't want to show up at all. I don't really think they care much. Ms. Hopper, who is profiting the most from. From these human trafficking operations? It depends on what part of the chain that we're talking about. (34:28–34:42)
