Tonight on the readout.

Did you propose this standalone

Israel aid package to kill this compromise deal in the Senate?

No, we've made very clear what the requirements of the House were and that is to

solve the problem at the border.

Is Donald Trump calling the shots here, Mr Speaker?

Of course not.

He's not calling the shots.

I am calling the shots for the House.

That's our responsibility.

Of course not.

But Trump did tell them to do nothing about the border this year

because Republicans can't afford to give it up as an election issue.

Also tonight how Trump manages to delay, delay, delay, delay, his criminal trials something no regular citizen would be able to do.

Plus as Trump openly routes for a crash,

Joe Biden presides over what even Trump advisors admit

is a whopper of an economy.

But we begin tonight with an emergency, a crisis, a catastrophe.

At least that's what Republican lawmakers have spent the last few months calling the situation at the southern border.

One thing is absolutely clear.

America is at a breaking point with record levels of illegal immigration.

It is an unmitigated disaster, a catastrophe.
