Thanks so it is a Bill O'Reilly and -- Kelly file segment tonight we have a lot to talk about beginning with the terrible ordeal of 27 year old John hammer.

He is a former marine Lance corporal from Florida now incarcerated in Mexico.

Mexicans put him in prison after he registered an antique gun with the US Border Patrol.

Then he crossed into Mexico.

Apparently the Mexican authorities saw the paperwork and immediately arrested corporal hammer on gun charges I was four months ago -- he's still on -- Senator Bill Nelson from Florida said this.

Bring this marine hole.

Mexican government and now that you have a new president just install -- in Mexico.

The relations with the United States are especially important.

To treat the United States citizens.

Who are peaceful in there and -- In this.

And -- observation of the Mexican -- Right you know attorney and Fox News anchor Megyn Kelly's look and this story.

So this is really ridiculous right totally ridiculous -- he's my latest -- only the border to send them back over the border all they had to do is that because he was taking the anti gun to Costa Rica to go hunting right right now that was in a Smart move on his -- and and I've said this many times if you go to Mexico.

Don't do anything don't take anything don't drive there just fly in go to your resort hotel -- -- I get the hell out I mean you really have to think don't bother going until.

Mr.

hammer gets out of why anybody -- go anyway you know.

It does say that it's it's this guy served our country -- -- gets honorable discharge he had to -- and post traumatic stress disorder treatment.

Any goes just to have a surfing trip just are really just Sudan have a little try to keep these guys don't I don't I try to -- fast right you -- register when US customs.

And now the Mexicans say that's it you're going to -- immediately in jail.

Here's the irony about OK so what is our State Department done well -- made a few phone calls.

The parents are very upset that the US consulate hasn't done more but really typically the way these workers -- State Department calls their State Department and then it -- -- -- aligned delegates and local police and they say.

They'll be ridiculous this isn't one of those situations where somebody goes hiking over and then it accidentally crosses into Iran.

This well that's.

Barnes well -- here's what's illegal and that hundreds of millions of dollar one year bill but he isn't isn't the phone call let's be honest.

They disrespect us all the time Mexico all the time.

Number one Hillary Clinton should be involved -- -- herself.

We haven't seen any sign of that number two -- Obama should be involved we haven't seen any sign of that number three the new Mexican president Ito I think his name is all right.

He.

There's no way that this guy should let this marine out tomorrow Christmas is coming up.

We call -- Mexican embassy today -- those people are totally chaotic very busy they don't know what the hell's going on they don't care all right so I think now we have to squeeze.

It's been -- but refusing any here's the -- and I don't -- just let the viewers out.

So we have -- one point nine billion dollar systems program that we help Mexico with the fight their war on drugs among other things.

And we've been -- down like money for Blackhawk hell shortcut helicopters and -- But recently our effort has shifted.

Two more of -- law and order assistance program.

And we had had a are -- the -- of the former director Colorado's penitentiary system has trained more than 5000 Mexican prison officials in recent years.

Mexican jurors are running mock trials with visiting American judges.

-- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- Now the marine's parents can be a Hannity after his programs who want you two stick around -- that and Anaheim tomorrow is -- relative -- -- story on tomorrow.

And Mexican embassy again now we -- you all day long comment you're hiding you can't continue to hide and Hillary Clinton you -- -- You gotta get involved -- right -- and the secretary you gotta get involved that's it and President Obama has again -- he bought this is a marine corporal.

This is a American four months for nothing you can do it that's it.

All right -- -- isn't up to twelve years in prison well essentially he's gonna get out soon I I have confidence in new president is Mexico Mahoney is sketchy situation -- they're they're calling the parents.

From the jail and they tried to extort thousands of dollar of course that's what they haven't haven't moved to solitary that's what they did she had no right to -- if the parents that are 810 -- is probably could have got -- And change in a -- -- we were able to stop that from happening up.

Enough is enough are right -- senator Bob Menendez -- -- he apparently had an immigrant.

Who is in the country an immigrant in the intern yet who's in the country illegally.

Right right and a registered sex offender to boot -- it up.

Well then hit that.

That intern just got arrested he's only a young kid he's eighteen years old he got handed a note to sex charge was against now because it was sincerely.

Yet because that was what happened when he was would you be but he still had to -- register as a sex offender under a confused about this case because it happened here in the United States.

And yet.

Why was he still here because they don't deport people you know it's it's likes to say it -- -- illegal immigrant make him register as a sex offender and then they let him go get a job in this in -- senate just the Boston Globe tomorrow on the fact of the Boston Globe than a big investigation.

And this official claims that Homeland Security told place don't make the -- until after the election because this is early October.

Ice and Homeland Security -- denying that categorically on the record they claim no politics were involved in this.

And they just made the -- and Menendez what is he -- Menendez says I was shocked I just found all of this out and his office is saying.
