House Republican Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy spoke to Fox News Tuesday night after President Trump’s Oval Office address about a “growing humanitarian and security crisis” at the U.S.-Mexico border — resolutely standing by him.

Standing by Trump on “Hannity,” McCarthy, R-Calif., said: “He is asking for 10 percent of what our government gave away to foreign governments last year.”

He added: “The $56 billion they gave away, he just wants $5.6 billion to secure our border.”

The president noted several Americans killed by suspected illegal immigrants, including California police Cpl. Ronil Singh, who was murdered the day after Christmas — allegedly by an illegal immigrant suspected of driving drunk. The suspect had multiple prior arrests, and Republicans have charged that California’s sanctuary laws — which prevent local law enforcement from cooperating with federal immigration authorities — led to Singh’s murder.

McCarthy told Sean Hannity that Singh's alleged killer was caught in his county in California.
