Fox News host Laura Ingraham got into a heated confrontation with Republican Speaker of the House and Louisiana Rep. Mike Johnson on what she said sounded like “amnesty” for illegal immigrants.

“President-elect Trump as first time I’ve said that I realize, President-elect Trump can do a lot just by executive order, but I do understand from my sources that they want laws passed. They don’t want an executive order that can just be thrown away four years or eight years. They want permanent change. Can’t ask for asylum inside the country. Can’t play the game where you come here say, oh, I’m oppressed, and you get to stay. He’s even talked about the birthright citizenship issue, which obviously is more problematic because of the Constitution, that would require more thinking and study. But he doesn’t want to just do the executive orders. Is that what your understanding is as well?” Ingraham began to open the segment.

“Yes, and our agenda is to enact this into law. We need real, comprehensive immigration reform. We’ve needed it for a long time,” the speaker said before the host said “That sounds like amnesty.”

“Every time I’ve heard Republicans say that it’s like earned path to citizenship. Then we have 20 million, you know, people who get their citizenship overnight. Every time I hear that, it drives me crazy. You can explain,” Ingraham continued.

“No, no, we’re talking about no. We want to do the opposite of amnesty,” Johnson insisted. “If you do an amnesty program, you invite more people to violate the law. That’s exactly the opposite of what we need to do. We got to begin on day one with securing the border.

“President Trump will issue an executive order. He has that authority under existing statutory law, but we’ve got to come right behind him with a robust legislative agenda. We have got to do this for the American people, secure the border. And then turn to the catastrophe that’s been created by the border being opened. It is — it is complex, as you know,” he said.

“Does that include deportation because…Trump ran on that,” Ingraham asked.

“Yes, of course, deportation,” the Speaker said.
