Gingrich: If you want to lower carbon footprint in US, control the border

Fox News contributor Newt Gingrich reacts to environmental group advocating for deflating SUV tires to fight climate change.

Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich told "Fox & Friends" Monday that the left's "infantile" efforts to combat climate change should extend to the border crisis and private jets of people like John Kerry. Gingrich was asked about an environmental group that is now advocating for deflating SUV tires to fight climate change.
