01:50 >> I have one question on the border wall.
01:53 The border wall -- the money was appropriated
01:55 for the border wall.
01:56 I tried to get them to re-appropriate it,
01:58 to redirect that money. They didn't. They wouldn't.
02:01 And in the meantime, there's nothing under the law
02:03 other than they have to use the money
02:05 for what it was appropriated for.
02:06 I can't stop that.
02:07 >> Do you believe the border wall works?
02:09 >> No. >> Okay.
