An exhausted Julian Castro busted Meghan McCain for pushing "right-wing talking points" to misrepresent his position on immigration.

The Democratic presidential candidate hadn't slept yet after taking part in the first primary debate Wednesday and making multiple television appearances Thursday morning after drawing widespread praise for his performance, and he made a remote appearance on "The View."

"I hear what you are saying," McCain said, "but if you decriminalize, aren't you calling for open borders, and how can you enforce any rules if there are no repercussions for doing something illegal?"

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) suggested on Thursday that two migrants died in the Rio Grande River due to the policies of the Trump administration.

At her weekly press conference, Pelosi was asked about a father and daughter who had drowned while trying to enter the United States. A photo of the two migrants lying face down in the river was published earlier this week.

Pelosi appeared to choke up as she spoke.

"Can you just imagine, the father put the little girl on shore to go back to get the mother and the little girl wanted to be with her father, she got back in [the water]," Pelosi lamented. "He couldn't save her and he couldn't save himself."

Xi Jinping might possibly agree this weekend when he meets Donald Trump on further steps to bring down China’s trade imbalance with the US, giving Trump a face-saving way of ending his trade war.

But Xi won’t agree to change China’s economic system. Why should he?

The American economic system is focused on maximizing shareholder returns. And it’s achieving that goal. Last Friday, the S&P 500 notched a new all-time high.
