BEGIN TRANSCRIPT RUSH: On this program yesterday after the Republican debate, you know Trump was talking about Eisenhower and how he deported a million and a half, and I added to that news. RUSH ARCHIVE: Trump was entirely correct to point out the history, what Eisenhower did. And I don't think Trump went far enough, actually. In reality, Harry Truman, another Democrat president, deported illegal aliens, over 3.4 million. Did you know that? You did not know about Harry Truman? Well, then I'm happy to be able to inform you. RUSH: Last night, Trump was on The O'Reilly Factor, and...

President Obama on Thursday slammed Republican presidential hopeful Donald Trump’s latest controversial plan to crack down on illegal immigration. “The notion that we’re gonna deport 11, 12 million people from this country — first of all, I have no idea where Mr. Trump thinks the money’s gonna come from," Obama said in an interview with ABC News's George Stephanopoulos. "It would cost us hundreds of billions of dollars to execute that." Obama’s rebuke came after Trump raised the possibility of creating a “deportation force” to remove immigrants living in the U.S. illegally. “Imagine the images on the screen flashed around the world...

This week’s Republican debate was a good one, but as usual it produced the typical rounds of harrumphing among media critics who disagree with conservative principles on any number of policy points. One of the more bitterly argued ones this week has been the reemergence of Donald Trump’s various plans for doing something about the illegal immigrant problem which has been engulfing the nation for far too long. Chief in point during this round as been, yet again, Trump’s plan to deport illegal immigrants in large numbers and build a wall to staunch the flow into the country. Some...

This is not the first time the US has dealt with an illegal immigration problem. Only last time it was dealt with in a decidedly swifter and sterner manner. The response, coordinated by President Dwight Eisenhower, resulted in nearly 3 million illegal immigrants being sent home. During his administration, Eisenhower became the first American president forced to deal with problems stemming from illegal immigration. Only, in Eisenhower s time the politically correct culture of liberal sensitivities had yet to emerge. There was not much in the way of sympathy for those who had crossed into the country illegally. Eisenhower told...

Thursday, Republican presidential candidate Jeb Bush criticized his rival Donald Trump's plan to deport 12 million illegal immigrants living in the United States, saying their legal right to "due process" would make Trump's plan "not possible."

Republican presidential candidate Ted Cruz said the November 2016 general election will turn on the question of amnesty for undocumented immigrants in November, and described himself as the lone candidate able to unite various factions of conservative Republicans. At a press conference after officially registering for the New Hampshire primary, Mr. Cruz said that “millions” of Republicans will stay home in November if they believe the GOP nominee is soft on immigration, particularly working-class voters who he says would see amnesty for undocumented immigrants as a threat to their ability to find well-paying work. “There is a real socioeconomic divide,”...

The debate? Well, I thought the most interesting moment came when Donald Trump brought up Eisenhower: Let me just tell you that Dwight Eisenhower-a good president, great president, people liked him. 'I Like Ike', right? The expression 'I Like Ike'? - moved a million and a half illegal immigrants out of this country, moved them just beyond the border: They came back. Moved them again, beyond the border: They came back. Then moved them way south. They never came back. To the establishments of both parties and the media, Trump is beyond the pale. Yet he keeps, confidently, moving beyonder....

When it comes to the topic of immigration, you may not be surprised to find that a new poll discovered that Republicans trust Donald Trump more than any other candidate on the issue. A new YouGov poll found that Trump was far and away the most trusted candidate concerning immigration among the still large field of GOP candidates for president. About half of of those polled, 49 percent, said that Trump had the right ideas on immigration. These findings are significant considering months of attacks by the mainstream media trying to tear Trump down over the immigration issue. His ratings...

Donald Trump is still the leader in a Newsmax poll taken after Tuesday's Republican presidential debate in Milwaukee, with half of respondents saying he fared best. Here are the results: Donald Trump: 51 percent Ted Cruz: 19 percent Marco Rubio: 13 percent Ben Carson: 7 percent Carly Fiorina: 3 percent Rand Paul: 3 percent John Kasich: 1 percent Jeb Bush: 0 percent

Earlier this week Marco Rubio went on Hannity to discuss the current state of his campaign. Rubio was asked about the 'Gang of 8' Amnesty plan he supported immediately after joining the US Senate with Chuck Schumer and Dick Durbin. Rubio doubled down. Marco Rubio: Look I live in a state that was deeply impacted by immigration and I was trying to make a difference. I was trying to make the most conservative bill possible in a senate controlled by Democrats. This morning Gang of Ocho member Marco Rubio told America's Newsroom that he will not support mass deportation of...

Viewers of the Republican presidential debate on Tuesday in Milwaukee, Wisconsin will be aware of the fiery exchange between Gov. Jeb Bush, who ostensibly wants to do very little about the “12 million” illegal immigrants in the United States, and Donald Trump, who wants to see a policy of repatriation, and a preference for legal immigrants.

Hillary Clinton slammed Donald Trump for his "absurd" immigration views again, going on Twitter to denounce his newest idea for how to forcefully remove illegal immigrants. During his appearance on Morning Joe, Mika Brzezinski pressed Trump to elaborate on what he said about immigration during the GOP debate, asking him whether he would resort to a "deportation force" in order to expel approximately 11 million people from the country. "You're going to have a deportation force, and you're going to do it humanely," Trump said. From there, he went onto his signature talking points about building a wall, letting law-abiding...

A whopping 49 percent of Republicans and independents who lean to the GOP say Trump is the presidential candidate who can best handle the issue — well ahead of Marco Rubio with 10 percent GOP support, Ted Cruz with 7 percent and Jeb Bush at 5 percent.

To win the crown, you have to knock out the champ. That would be Trump. Nobody came close last night. Apparently John Kasich and Juan Ellis Bush didn’t get the paraphrased memo from Harry S. Truman: If you give people a choice between a Democrat and a Democrat, they’ll pick the Democrat every time. Kasich had no business even being on the stage last night. He belonged in the kiddie debate, from whose bourn no traveler returns. Ditto Juan Ellis Bush. Who exactly did the son of a mailman think he was kidding when he said the U.S. couldn’t deport...

Republicans need to make gains with Hispanic voters in 2016, but that reality is complicated by the fact that more adults support Donald Trump’s hard-line stance on immigration, a new Economist Group/YouGov Poll finds.A whopping 49 percent of Republicans and independents who lean to the GOP say Trump is the presidential candidate who can best handle the issue — well ahead of Marco Rubio with 10 percent GOP support, Ted Cruz with 7 percent and Jeb Bush at 5 percent.The divide in the GOP over how to address issues stemming from illegal immigration spilled over in the fourth Republican presidential debate...

Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush and Ohio Gov. John Kasich on Tuesday teamed up to attack Donald Trump for his immigration stance, as the GOP presidential front-runner tried to swat their arguments away. "To send them back, 500,000 a month, is just not possible, and its not embracing American values and it would tear communities apart," Bush said at the Republican presidential debate in Milwaukee, Wis. "Even having this conversation sends a powerful signal. They are doing high-fives in the Clinton campaign right now when they hear this." Bush - who has seen a slide in the polls as Trump...

The Republican debate on Tuesday evening was set for fireworks, but the first real explosions of the night came from an unexpected source. A substantive debate on economics and tax policy descended into petty insults when Ohio Gov. John Kasich and Donald Trump squabbled over the issue of whether millions of undocumented immigrants in the United States could be deported. Kasich, who interrupted the moderators multiple times throughout the debate to interject his views, rebutted the idea that a future President Trump could deport millions of immigrants after the construction of a border wall between the United States and Mexico....

NEW ORLEANS (AP) — President Barrack Obama's plan to protect from deportation an estimated 5 million people living in the United States illegally has suffered another setback in court. In a 2-1 decision, the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in New Orleans upheld a Texas-based judge's injunction blocking the Obama administration's immigration initiative. Republicans had criticized the plan as an illegal executive overreach when Obama announced it last November. Twenty-six states challenged the plan in court.
