1
00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:03,240
Speaker 1: Yesterday, the Department of Homeland Security, per the direction of

2
00:00:03,279 --> 00:00:06,960
Speaker 1: the President of the United States, started deploying ICE agents

3
00:00:06,960 --> 00:00:10,840
Speaker 1: to airports to help alleviate the crowd problems because Democrats

4
00:00:11,200 --> 00:00:16,360
Speaker 1: refused to fund the Department and therefore refused to fund TSA,

5
00:00:16,480 --> 00:00:19,480
Speaker 1: and Chuck Schumer took to the well of the Senate

6
00:00:19,600 --> 00:00:23,000
Speaker 1: to tell you how horrible this was and how terrible

7
00:00:23,000 --> 00:00:25,960
Speaker 1: it's going to be for air travel. There's only one

8
00:00:26,040 --> 00:00:30,160
Speaker 1: problem with that assertion. The truth got in the way.

9
00:00:30,320 --> 00:00:31,880
Speaker 1: And we're going to get to that story in just

10
00:00:31,960 --> 00:00:34,320
Speaker 1: one minute. But first, you know, we talk about government

11
00:00:34,400 --> 00:00:36,800
Speaker 1: fraud and waste a lot here on the program, and

12
00:00:36,880 --> 00:00:40,239
Speaker 1: for Medicare enrollees, well, they become a prime target of

13
00:00:40,280 --> 00:00:43,720
Speaker 1: fraudulent activity. You probably saw in the news recently that

14
00:00:43,760 --> 00:00:47,280
Speaker 1: Trump's doj went after some of the largest Medicare brokers

15
00:00:47,320 --> 00:00:50,280
Speaker 1: in the country for claiming they were unbiased all the

16
00:00:50,280 --> 00:00:52,559
Speaker 1: while they were secretly steering people into the plans that

17
00:00:52,600 --> 00:00:55,240
Speaker 1: paid them the most. And the part that people need

18
00:00:55,280 --> 00:00:57,720
Speaker 1: to understand is in a lot of cases that behavior

19
00:00:58,080 --> 00:01:01,000
Speaker 1: is legal, but it doesn't mean it to your best interest.

20
00:01:01,360 --> 00:01:04,240
Speaker 1: A lot of agents aren't really working for you, they're

21
00:01:04,280 --> 00:01:07,480
Speaker 1: working for the insurance company. And that's why I point people,

22
00:01:07,840 --> 00:01:12,080
Speaker 1: including my own mother, to Chapter. Chapter does Medicare differently.

23
00:01:12,400 --> 00:01:15,640
Speaker 1: Their advisors are salaried, so they're not pushing plans based

24
00:01:15,640 --> 00:01:18,959
Speaker 1: on commissions. In fact, they're the only Medicare advisor that

25
00:01:19,040 --> 00:01:23,600
Speaker 1: actually compares every plan available nationwide, not just the select few.

26
00:01:24,080 --> 00:01:26,480
Speaker 1: There's no cost to talk to them, and in most

27
00:01:26,480 --> 00:01:29,640
Speaker 1: cases they can review your options in about twenty minutes.

28
00:01:29,880 --> 00:01:32,720
Speaker 1: So if you're turning sixty five or already on Medicare,

29
00:01:32,959 --> 00:01:37,000
Speaker 1: called Chapter the numbers five eight zero three zero eight

30
00:01:37,760 --> 00:01:41,160
Speaker 1: zero nine seven five. Honestly, other than watching this show,

31
00:01:41,480 --> 00:01:43,600
Speaker 1: I can think of a better use of twenty minutes.

32
00:01:44,040 --> 00:01:48,160
Speaker 1: Now back to the video. Everywhere ICE goes, trouble follows.

33
00:01:48,240 --> 00:01:51,560
Speaker 2: We've seen that, and it is highly likely the airports

34
00:01:51,560 --> 00:01:54,280
Speaker 2: will be no exception. No one trusts that ICE is

35
00:01:54,320 --> 00:01:55,920
Speaker 2: going to make things better once again.

36
00:01:56,000 --> 00:01:58,920
Speaker 3: ICE agents have arrived here in Philadelphia. But I do

37
00:01:58,960 --> 00:02:01,480
Speaker 3: want to point out this is an empty line right now.

38
00:02:01,760 --> 00:02:04,000
Speaker 3: We are standing in the middle where travelers come to

39
00:02:04,160 --> 00:02:06,680
Speaker 3: check in for TSA. Yesterday, this was all the way

40
00:02:06,680 --> 00:02:09,280
Speaker 3: back to the garage, so good news today. Lines aren't

41
00:02:09,320 --> 00:02:09,880
Speaker 3: too bad.

42
00:02:09,800 --> 00:02:13,200
Speaker 1: Now, of course, missing from that incredibly biased right wing

43
00:02:13,919 --> 00:02:16,480
Speaker 1: local news agency was the truth of the matter. The

44
00:02:16,520 --> 00:02:19,360
Speaker 1: only reason there were no lines was because Ice took

45
00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:22,000
Speaker 1: everybody and bodies, slammed them to the ground, crushed their

46
00:02:22,040 --> 00:02:25,600
Speaker 1: skulls against the floor, and then deported them to a

47
00:02:25,720 --> 00:02:30,160
Speaker 1: prison in Al Salvador. Most of them all American citizens.

48
00:02:30,440 --> 00:02:32,799
Speaker 1: Chris van Holland will be having a margarita with all

49
00:02:32,880 --> 00:02:36,799
Speaker 1: of them soon. No, that's not what happened. They went

50
00:02:36,800 --> 00:02:39,560
Speaker 1: there to help alleviate the stress on the TSA agents.

51
00:02:39,600 --> 00:02:42,440
Speaker 1: They did their job, and TSA was able to focus

52
00:02:42,480 --> 00:02:45,720
Speaker 1: on getting people through the lines. It's that simple. Even

53
00:02:45,800 --> 00:02:47,280
Speaker 1: CNN had to admit it.

54
00:02:47,360 --> 00:02:49,080
Speaker 4: Since there, what have you been seeing them doing?

55
00:02:49,400 --> 00:02:53,000
Speaker 2: Yep, finally we can take a deep breath here. The

56
00:02:53,080 --> 00:02:56,320
Speaker 2: numbers have dropped off. The lines are getting shorter. I

57
00:02:56,320 --> 00:02:59,160
Speaker 2: think the average waytime now is under forty minutes. So

58
00:02:59,480 --> 00:03:01,120
Speaker 2: if you have a flight to catch today, it's a

59
00:03:01,120 --> 00:03:03,960
Speaker 2: good time become to Hartsfield Jackson Internationale. Talking about those

60
00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:06,600
Speaker 2: ICE agents, you can see a few behind me right there,

61
00:03:06,960 --> 00:03:08,600
Speaker 2: and then I'm going to walk you this direction and

62
00:03:08,639 --> 00:03:11,320
Speaker 2: you can see some more of them gathered over here.

63
00:03:11,400 --> 00:03:13,160
Speaker 2: This is what they've been doing for the most part

64
00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:18,560
Speaker 2: today is doing the patrols around the airport, talking and gathering,

65
00:03:19,160 --> 00:03:21,280
Speaker 2: not really helping the public in the sense of there

66
00:03:21,400 --> 00:03:24,280
Speaker 2: they're not taking tickets from anybody, they're not interacting with

67
00:03:24,320 --> 00:03:26,919
Speaker 2: the public brief seen so far, they're not checking anyone's ID.

68
00:03:27,280 --> 00:03:30,200
Speaker 1: That's right. They're doing exactly what we all told you

69
00:03:30,360 --> 00:03:33,679
Speaker 1: that they were going to do. They're doing crowd control

70
00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:37,160
Speaker 1: and some of the easier, more basic police functions and

71
00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:40,120
Speaker 1: security functions the TSA had to do as they were

72
00:03:40,160 --> 00:03:43,000
Speaker 1: short staffed, so the TSA can then focus on getting

73
00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:47,120
Speaker 1: people through the lines. It's almost like it's going perfectly

74
00:03:47,200 --> 00:03:52,200
Speaker 1: according to plan. But Chuck Schumer told me, Yeah, of course,

75
00:03:52,760 --> 00:03:58,160
Speaker 1: don't believe Chuck Schumer. But listen, that's Atlanta, that's redneck country.

76
00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:01,120
Speaker 1: That's just a puntral White folks know Ice isn't gonna

77
00:04:01,160 --> 00:04:05,000
Speaker 1: bother them, But what about some of our minority communities

78
00:04:05,040 --> 00:04:09,200
Speaker 1: who are obviously the targets of ICE, Because Ice is

79
00:04:09,240 --> 00:04:12,760
Speaker 1: really just what was it the Gestapo or Confederate Soldiers

80
00:04:12,840 --> 00:04:15,840
Speaker 1: or the Klan or what other left wing organization are

81
00:04:15,880 --> 00:04:18,560
Speaker 1: they supposed to resemble. I'm not sure, but I'm sure

82
00:04:18,600 --> 00:04:20,400
Speaker 1: it's a different story. Bother anybody.

83
00:04:20,480 --> 00:04:20,960
Speaker 2: I'm okay.

84
00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:24,920
Speaker 5: I was concerned about people, So they're not bothering us.

85
00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:25,760
Speaker 5: Let's get it done.

86
00:04:25,880 --> 00:04:27,080
Speaker 1: I like that they're here.

87
00:04:27,120 --> 00:04:29,320
Speaker 2: I think that it's allowing us to move and get

88
00:04:29,360 --> 00:04:30,160
Speaker 2: to where we need to go.

89
00:04:30,320 --> 00:04:33,800
Speaker 5: It's kind of scary because you don't know what ice.

90
00:04:33,880 --> 00:04:35,479
Speaker 3: As long as they can help us move a little

91
00:04:35,480 --> 00:04:38,000
Speaker 3: bit faster, maybe they can take some of the work

92
00:04:38,040 --> 00:04:40,920
Speaker 3: off the TSA agents as far as you know, general security.

93
00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:42,280
Speaker 4: I'm all for it.

94
00:04:42,360 --> 00:04:44,720
Speaker 1: The worst thing you heard there from any of the passengers,

95
00:04:44,720 --> 00:04:47,919
Speaker 1: as well as a little worried going in because you know,

96
00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:52,159
Speaker 1: Corey Booker's been texting me with these wild eyed images

97
00:04:52,240 --> 00:04:55,719
Speaker 1: of him terrified of ice. But yeah, and there seems

98
00:04:55,760 --> 00:04:59,080
Speaker 1: to be fine. Of course it's fine. And this wasn't

99
00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:01,640
Speaker 1: just a one off. I mean all through the day

100
00:05:01,720 --> 00:05:04,800
Speaker 1: yesterday you had reporters at the airports talking to the

101
00:05:04,800 --> 00:05:06,799
Speaker 1: passengers and seeing what the difference means.

102
00:05:07,160 --> 00:05:09,240
Speaker 2: You know, people say that it's helping.

103
00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:12,520
Speaker 3: Obviously kind of controversial, but at the end of the day,

104
00:05:12,560 --> 00:05:14,719
Speaker 3: President Trump brought them in here to help alleviate the

105
00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:15,360
Speaker 3: bad lines.

106
00:05:16,839 --> 00:05:19,720
Speaker 4: They're here doing a job just like TSA. Is it

107
00:05:19,880 --> 00:05:23,760
Speaker 4: Bless their hearts, They're out here doing working without a paycheck,

108
00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:27,520
Speaker 4: trying to help people, and they've got a job. But

109
00:05:27,600 --> 00:05:30,440
Speaker 4: they're just like everybody else and think good thank goodness

110
00:05:30,480 --> 00:05:30,839
Speaker 4: for them.

111
00:05:31,120 --> 00:05:33,760
Speaker 1: This isn't a one off either. And I already showed

112
00:05:33,800 --> 00:05:37,120
Speaker 1: you CNN. I mean, nobody talked to CNN because you

113
00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:41,080
Speaker 1: know it's CNN, but the reports just continued. This was

114
00:05:41,120 --> 00:05:44,800
Speaker 1: a huge success. But that's Atlanta. What about out in

115
00:05:44,839 --> 00:05:47,880
Speaker 1: the west, what about Arizona. They must be hating it,

116
00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:51,119
Speaker 1: right because ICE is there to take all the brown

117
00:05:51,160 --> 00:05:53,960
Speaker 1: skinned people and throw them back to Mexico or whatever, right,

118
00:05:54,120 --> 00:05:54,840
Speaker 1: so they must hate it.

119
00:05:54,920 --> 00:05:58,839
Speaker 3: When you see ICE agents, you know, being deployed, what

120
00:05:58,960 --> 00:05:59,839
Speaker 3: goes through your minds?

121
00:06:00,960 --> 00:06:03,440
Speaker 5: I like it. I mean I think trumpshon on holiday off.

122
00:06:04,200 --> 00:06:04,680
Speaker 4: I like it.

123
00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:07,359
Speaker 3: Most of the travelers we spoke with say, well, it's disappointing.

124
00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:10,400
Speaker 3: The current shutdown is having a negative impact on TSA staff.

125
00:06:10,480 --> 00:06:12,680
Speaker 3: They're pleased to see ICE agents stepping it.

126
00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:15,760
Speaker 5: They're protecting us.

127
00:06:15,839 --> 00:06:19,760
Speaker 1: Damn it. Democrats just can't catch a break, all right,

128
00:06:19,760 --> 00:06:22,520
Speaker 1: There's got to be some airport out there where people

129
00:06:22,600 --> 00:06:26,960
Speaker 1: are bothered. They hate Ice and it hasn't made a

130
00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:30,800
Speaker 1: difference with the lines. How about Cleveland, right, I mean,

131
00:06:31,279 --> 00:06:34,960
Speaker 1: surely something's broken in Cleveland other than all their sports teams.

132
00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:36,840
Speaker 1: I have no problem with that at all.

133
00:06:37,839 --> 00:06:40,880
Speaker 2: I mean, if they're there to help, that's fine, because

134
00:06:40,920 --> 00:06:42,320
Speaker 2: you obviously.

135
00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:42,839
Speaker 5: Need more people.

136
00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:45,800
Speaker 1: Cleveland is one of more than ten US airports where

137
00:06:45,800 --> 00:06:49,000
Speaker 1: the Trump administration has deployed agents to help amid a

138
00:06:49,040 --> 00:06:52,320
Speaker 1: shortage of TSA workers. Yeah, so there's Cleveland as well.

139
00:06:52,320 --> 00:06:54,880
Speaker 1: All right, So I'm confused here. I'm very confused because

140
00:06:55,000 --> 00:06:59,039
Speaker 1: Chuck Schumer has been an elected official since nineteen seventy five.

141
00:06:59,080 --> 00:07:02,080
Speaker 1: He's been in Congress from New York, a senator from

142
00:07:02,120 --> 00:07:05,120
Speaker 1: New York, and now he's the leader of the Democrats

143
00:07:05,400 --> 00:07:07,919
Speaker 1: currently in the minority, but he's even the majority leader

144
00:07:08,480 --> 00:07:12,240
Speaker 1: in the Senate. I mean that's forty years of elected

145
00:07:12,320 --> 00:07:15,640
Speaker 1: office as a Democrat at the highest levels other than

146
00:07:15,680 --> 00:07:18,440
Speaker 1: the White House that you can get. And he assured

147
00:07:18,480 --> 00:07:21,560
Speaker 1: me that this was going to be a disaster. So

148
00:07:21,640 --> 00:07:26,560
Speaker 1: somebody explained this to me. How about this guy, Senator

149
00:07:26,640 --> 00:07:29,640
Speaker 1: John Kennedy of Louisiana, Maybe he can explain what's going

150
00:07:29,680 --> 00:07:32,760
Speaker 1: on with Schumer here and what appears to be a

151
00:07:32,840 --> 00:07:39,040
Speaker 1: discrepancy in what Schumer said and the truth he's lying.

152
00:07:39,680 --> 00:07:45,120
Speaker 5: He's lying like fish swim. I mean, here's what's going on.

153
00:07:45,840 --> 00:07:53,000
Speaker 5: We've been to We've had DHS shut down for thirty

154
00:07:53,040 --> 00:07:57,080
Speaker 5: eight days. I think the Democrats at one point voted

155
00:07:57,120 --> 00:08:02,000
Speaker 5: to fund DHS and then they backed We've been debating

156
00:08:02,080 --> 00:08:05,240
Speaker 5: the Save Act for I don't know ten days. I

157
00:08:05,280 --> 00:08:11,120
Speaker 5: guess we're stuck. I'm a big believer that when you're stuck,

158
00:08:12,200 --> 00:08:15,640
Speaker 5: you ought to try to plow around the stump, not

159
00:08:15,840 --> 00:08:21,040
Speaker 5: through it. So Senator Cruise and I a few days

160
00:08:21,040 --> 00:08:24,920
Speaker 5: ago came up with a two step process to solve

161
00:08:24,960 --> 00:08:30,400
Speaker 5: both problems. Step one, we would open up everything at

162
00:08:30,440 --> 00:08:37,520
Speaker 5: I at DHS except ICE, including TSA, which the Democrats

163
00:08:37,559 --> 00:08:42,480
Speaker 5: have already agreed to. And then we would fund ICE

164
00:08:43,280 --> 00:08:48,080
Speaker 5: through reconciliation, which we could do only with Republican votes.

165
00:08:48,120 --> 00:08:52,160
Speaker 5: We wouldn't need any Democratic votes. I don't speak for

166
00:08:52,360 --> 00:08:55,240
Speaker 5: Senator Cruise on this part of it, but I also

167
00:08:55,320 --> 00:09:01,320
Speaker 5: have suggested that we use the Reconciliation sess with only

168
00:09:01,440 --> 00:09:07,200
Speaker 5: Republican votes to pass the Save Act. Now, Senator we

169
00:09:07,280 --> 00:09:10,360
Speaker 5: pitched this to Senator Thoon a couple of days ago.

170
00:09:10,840 --> 00:09:16,560
Speaker 5: He pitched it to President Trump. President Trump, as you

171
00:09:16,640 --> 00:09:20,920
Speaker 5: know from his his tweets said no, But I talked

172
00:09:20,960 --> 00:09:23,760
Speaker 5: to Senator Thun last night and he says the President

173
00:09:24,320 --> 00:09:27,640
Speaker 5: has reconsidered and maybe on board.

174
00:09:27,960 --> 00:09:32,679
Speaker 1: Not only a suscinct way of describing exactly what's going

175
00:09:32,679 --> 00:09:36,040
Speaker 1: on there with Chuck Schumer's public statements and the reality

176
00:09:36,480 --> 00:09:38,120
Speaker 1: we see with our own eyes.

177
00:09:38,440 --> 00:09:43,640
Speaker 5: He's lying, He's lying like fish swim.

178
00:09:43,120 --> 00:09:45,440
Speaker 1: But it's also a pretty good way to describe what

179
00:09:45,520 --> 00:09:48,520
Speaker 1: the way forward here is on this impasse. Get the

180
00:09:48,559 --> 00:09:51,960
Speaker 1: funding done, carve ice out, put it into a reconciliation bill,

181
00:09:52,120 --> 00:09:54,640
Speaker 1: add the Save Act to it, and then just rely

182
00:09:54,720 --> 00:09:57,600
Speaker 1: on Republican votes. Now, it's easier said than done, but

183
00:09:57,640 --> 00:10:02,120
Speaker 1: it's certainly certainly forward. We always appreciate Senator Kennedy not

184
00:10:02,160 --> 00:10:05,880
Speaker 1: only bringing some revelations like that to the table, but

185
00:10:05,960 --> 00:10:08,160
Speaker 1: in the very colorful Louisiana, Wayne
