Brian thanks so much Janice, we will be right back and you might want to stay tune and right now we are bringing Chad Wolf nominated for the job full time. Mr Secretary, how are you helping Louisiana and Texas from what youve seen Chad so its really devastating storm? We saw it come across inland as category four now category two we are not out of the woods yet we see most concerned about is that flash flooding, the wind gusts and the power outages as the storm continues to move north in Louisiana. What FEMA is doing is obviously prepositioning supplies. We have prepositioning teams, Texas, Alabama and Georgia, to make sure we are able to respond as the sunrises the next forty eight hours are going to be critical from a life safety standard. We have customs and border patrol assets, some of which are behind me today, ready to respond

along with DOD assets. As the sun comes up, we are going to be in life safety, security standpoint and doing those assessments on the ground. Steve all right lets switch gears to something that we have heard for the last days about law and order at the Rnc. The president has made it clear that hes ready to deploy the National Guard to Kenosha Wisconsin, where the man was shot in the back by police, as an investigation has been launched by the Doj. Also, we understand, apparently, the governor of Minnesota asked for the National Guard to be deployed in the Minneapolis area after trouble. There whats your message to folks who are looking in watching whats happening in Americas cities about whats next Chad. Well, I think the president has been very clear from the onset, which is we need to address the violent activity so again, peaceful, protesting. First amendment rights. I think

everyone is very much in support of that when it crosses the line into violence. The president has been very clear in state and local authorities need to do their job and when they cant, then, if they want to call the federal government, the president is willing to send in assets as weve done in Wisconsin. We will continue to do that to other parts of the city as well. I would say this stands in contrast to what we continue to see in Portland over three months. We saw violence again last night and we hope she does that calls on the federal government to help and we will go from there Ainsley. I know the President nominated you for DHS Secretary. What happens next? Chad certainly honor to be nominated by the President. I have been leading the Department of Homeland Security in capacity. The nomination will go to the Senate and theyll be a process that kicks off to do that, and

then you know with the help of the United States Congress and the Senate, I hope to be confirmed and continue to lead the men and women of DHS doing our mission every day, obviously responding to a hurricane. We have election security im here in El Paso talking about border security as well. We have a diverse mission that we will continue to do to protect the homeland Brian. You have three thousand and twenty miles of wall built. What do you say, Mr Secretary, when people say law and order its on the presidents watch its his responsibility? What do you tell people, Chad well, first and foremost, law and order in any city and any locality start with local officials and local law enforcement and state officials and state law enforcement? Federal resources has always been a backup. The president has been very clear as soon as you need help. You request it from the federal government and we will be there and thats what you see in Wisconsin thats. What you see in other area of the country, and so the president is clear, making sure that state and local officials step up to patrol their cities protect their communities, protect the residents in their communities.

A lot of Americans are looking at TVS and saying what is going on in the cities across the country and why arent local officials stepping up early on day, one on day two and addressing this head on and making sure that we dont allow Kenosha to continue to occur night after night and have the violence and, unfortunately, what we have seen are deaths as well Steve. We know that DHS, you guys, you folks, have your hands full today with the hurricane. We thank you very much for.
