SEAN HANNITY: Now the question is if we are to follow the laws that we presently have and don't pass an immigration bill, you still have 11 or 12 million people that are in here illegally and -- PAT BUCHANAN: Why do you have to do anything? What is this nonsense of they’re in the shadows? With due respect, they ought to be in the shadows. They

CHARLES KRAUTHAMMER: That's important because you can get all kinds of conspiracy theories, coverups -- the Saudi, why is he being deported? Why is there a meeting? All of these, I think, are really harmful. If the FBI says these are our guys, it isn't a coverup and isn't a conspiracy. I think the likelihood that it is Islamic terrorism [based] on

On Wednesday's broadcast of his nationally-syndicated radio program, Mark Levin interviewed Marco Rubio about his bipartisan immigration proposal.

RUSH LIMBAUGH: You have been, and your personal story is a profoundly motivational and inspirational one, the one that you tell about your father.

I don't, therefore, understand this cont

RUSH: Let's go to the bill. The last time you were here, you were very certain -- you assured everybody -- that until the border was secure, there would not be legalization of a pathway to citizenship. Now people who've seen the bill say that what actually happens is that the legalization does take place and that then there's a commission that h

Chris Hayes looks at the comparison on a day when the gun bill went down to defeat.

REP. DANA ROHRABACHER (R-CA): Mr. Secretary, we think that there was a coverup of some kind of wrongdoing that led this administration to lie to the American people about the nature of the attack immediately after the attack and for a week after that attack. We need to have these questions answered. We need to talk to the people who are on the scen

JOE SCARBOROUGH: You don't ignore -- you do not ignore 90% of the American people on an issue of public safety. You don't do it. They did it yesterday, and I've got to say, mark it down, this is going to be a turning point in the history of the Republican party as well.
