Of course walls work. Those who say "walls don't work" really mean "walls work ... they reduce illegal immigration & I don't want that." https://t.co/PdDMYQJ43N — Tom Cotton (@TomCottonAR) January 17, 2018

A balance of questions and answers needs to be established. Yesterday’s questions on health issues was purely political and not newsworthy...the Norway slam had a very appropriate response from Trump...but, we also do not want to shut down the press. The press has a job to do and we want good tough questions, not partisan guided questions... Acosta has been among the most outspoken critics of President Trump and is a significant part of CNN Worldwide President Jeff Zucker’s apparent anti-Trump programming strategy. Trump has famously dubbed CNN “fake news” and pointed directly at Acosta and called him by the disparaging moniker in the past. Last December, Acosta was shut down by White House Press Secretary Sarah Sanders when the liberal reporter tried to hijack a press briefing. Acosta told Sanders that journalists make “honest mistakes” but that doesn’t make them “fake news” before attempting a question. Sanders quickly cut him off. “When journalists make honest mistakes, they should own up to them. Sometimes, and a lot of times, you don’t,” Sanders said as Acosta tried to interrupt. “I’m sorry, I’m not finished,” she said. “There is a very big difference between making honest mistakes and purposefully misleading the American people... you cannot say it’s an honest mistake when you’re purposely putting out information you know is false.”
