00:00:33,880 --> 00:00:35,800
Speaker 4: Welcome to the Scott Jenning Shows.

11
00:00:36,720 --> 00:00:41,680
Speaker 1: Airport Chaos an American travel nightmare. We have the latest

12
00:00:41,760 --> 00:00:46,640
Speaker 1: on the long lines that Democrats have inflicted upon travelers.

13
00:00:46,920 --> 00:00:50,840
Speaker 1: An illegal alien has killed a college freshman in Chicago.

14
00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:55,760
Speaker 1: There is outrage over this latest senseless murder from someone

15
00:00:56,040 --> 00:00:58,279
Speaker 1: who should not have been in our country to begin with.

16
00:00:58,760 --> 00:01:02,880
Speaker 1: Iran has long range missiles than we previously thought. And

17
00:01:03,040 --> 00:01:07,040
Speaker 1: Donald Trump says he is pausing strikes on energy infrastructure

18
00:01:07,480 --> 00:01:11,399
Speaker 1: due to some negotiations to possibly end the war. All

19
00:01:11,440 --> 00:01:14,120
Speaker 1: of this and more coming up on today's show. It

20
00:01:14,160 --> 00:01:17,440
Speaker 1: is Monday, March to twenty third. You're listening to common

21
00:01:17,480 --> 00:01:20,399
Speaker 1: Sense for the American people. I'm Scott Jennings reporting for

22
00:01:20,520 --> 00:01:25,920
Speaker 1: Salem and we broadcast live today from Louisville, Kentucky. National

23
00:01:25,920 --> 00:01:29,120
Speaker 1: security expert Rebecca Heinrix will be along at twenty minutes

24
00:01:29,160 --> 00:01:32,720
Speaker 1: past the hour to talk Iran Chad Stall with the

25
00:01:32,880 --> 00:01:36,240
Speaker 1: TSA comes by at fifty minutes with the latest on

26
00:01:36,280 --> 00:01:40,560
Speaker 1: the airports, and later Congressman Jason Smith and Mike Lawler

27
00:01:40,920 --> 00:01:43,399
Speaker 1: we'll talk about what's happening in Washington.

28
00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:43,360
Speaker 4: D C.

29
00:01:43,760 --> 00:01:49,200
Speaker 1: But first we begin with the news. Airport chaos continues

30
00:01:49,240 --> 00:01:53,680
Speaker 1: today across America, hit and miss for some travelers out there,

31
00:01:53,720 --> 00:01:57,920
Speaker 1: some places three to five hour lines, others it isn't

32
00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:01,960
Speaker 1: quite as bad. President Trump announced over the weekend that

33
00:02:02,120 --> 00:02:05,960
Speaker 1: ICE agents would show up in airports to assist with

34
00:02:06,080 --> 00:02:09,120
Speaker 1: line management. The plan is now in place and it

35
00:02:09,200 --> 00:02:13,320
Speaker 1: is working. Here's how CBS News called it in Atlanta today.

36
00:02:13,400 --> 00:02:16,799
Speaker 1: Atlanta a particular troubled spot. Here's cut number two.

37
00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:20,560
Speaker 5: ICE agents have arrived within the hour and they are

38
00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:23,080
Speaker 5: assisting with line management and crowd control. And if you

39
00:02:23,120 --> 00:02:24,920
Speaker 5: just take a look around me, you can see there's

40
00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:27,440
Speaker 5: a sea of lines. From the moment you walk into

41
00:02:27,520 --> 00:02:30,359
Speaker 5: the front door, you can see several long lines all

42
00:02:30,480 --> 00:02:33,320
Speaker 5: leading back to TSA checkpoints. Over the weekend, the wait

43
00:02:33,360 --> 00:02:35,680
Speaker 5: times here at the airport was up to six hours

44
00:02:35,760 --> 00:02:38,200
Speaker 5: or some travelers. That's because a record number of TSA

45
00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:41,359
Speaker 5: workers called out on Saturday alone, more than three thousand

46
00:02:41,440 --> 00:02:44,040
Speaker 5: did not show up. Atlanta Mayor Andre Dickens says the

47
00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:47,680
Speaker 5: federal agents are here not to conduct immigration efforts. They

48
00:02:47,720 --> 00:02:51,079
Speaker 5: will support TSA and report to them directly. We're told

49
00:02:51,160 --> 00:02:54,040
Speaker 5: ICE agents will work with the exit and check IDs

50
00:02:54,080 --> 00:02:57,160
Speaker 5: while TSA workers focus on X rays and other screenings

51
00:02:58,360 --> 00:02:58,880
Speaker 5: and over.

52
00:02:58,760 --> 00:03:03,200
Speaker 1: At BWI Airports in Baltimore, here's another CBS report on

53
00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:06,600
Speaker 1: passengers who were standing in line longer than they would

54
00:03:06,600 --> 00:03:08,079
Speaker 1: ever spend on a plane.

55
00:03:08,120 --> 00:03:09,320
Speaker 2: Here's cut number three.

56
00:03:10,120 --> 00:03:13,040
Speaker 6: And some passengers waited more than ninety minutes just to

57
00:03:13,040 --> 00:03:16,799
Speaker 6: get to the TSA checkpoint on Sunday, missing their flights altogether.

58
00:03:16,880 --> 00:03:20,120
Speaker 6: This comes just one day before ICE agents could deploy

59
00:03:20,240 --> 00:03:21,800
Speaker 6: to airports nationwide.

60
00:03:21,919 --> 00:03:24,800
Speaker 4: This is absolutely ridiculous. I thought I was coming for

61
00:03:24,840 --> 00:03:27,200
Speaker 4: a quick day trip. Apparently not.

62
00:03:27,800 --> 00:03:29,120
Speaker 7: Rageius. My back is HEARDing.

63
00:03:29,400 --> 00:03:32,959
Speaker 6: Some passengers spend more time standing in line for TSA

64
00:03:33,040 --> 00:03:34,640
Speaker 6: than they did flying on Sunday.

65
00:03:34,639 --> 00:03:36,200
Speaker 4: At BWI Third Marshall.

66
00:03:35,960 --> 00:03:39,440
Speaker 6: Airport, lines for TSA stretched from the C checkpoint down

67
00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:43,800
Speaker 6: the food court hallway and around the airline check encounters.

68
00:03:45,120 --> 00:03:48,760
Speaker 1: Of course, the TSA situation will only get worse as

69
00:03:48,840 --> 00:03:52,760
Speaker 1: long as Democrats continue to vote to keep the agency,

70
00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:56,240
Speaker 1: which is part of DHS, shut down. More and more

71
00:03:56,280 --> 00:04:00,560
Speaker 1: TSA agents are about to miss their third paid they'll

72
00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:03,360
Speaker 1: have to call in sick or quit all together as

73
00:04:03,400 --> 00:04:06,920
Speaker 1: they take other jobs to make ends meet. And if

74
00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:09,640
Speaker 1: that isn't enough, the tragic crash this morning on the

75
00:04:09,680 --> 00:04:13,440
Speaker 1: tarmac at LaGuardia in New York is adding to an

76
00:04:13,480 --> 00:04:17,479
Speaker 1: already stressful day for some of the nation's busiest airports.

77
00:04:17,920 --> 00:04:20,720
Speaker 1: A pilot and co pilot of an Air Canada jet

78
00:04:20,760 --> 00:04:23,760
Speaker 1: are dead. Several more people are injured at one of

79
00:04:23,800 --> 00:04:27,640
Speaker 1: the nation's busiest airports. It remains closed this afternoon as

80
00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:30,640
Speaker 1: of one o'clock Eastern and may remain that way for

81
00:04:30,760 --> 00:04:32,200
Speaker 1: a few more hours.

82
00:04:32,480 --> 00:04:35,120
Speaker 2: So what we have today airport chaos.

83
00:04:35,200 --> 00:04:38,800
Speaker 1: Another day of American misery brought to you by the

84
00:04:38,839 --> 00:04:42,000
Speaker 1: Democratic Party, where the strategy appears to be to cause

85
00:04:42,040 --> 00:04:45,600
Speaker 1: you as much pain and suffering as possible, and then

86
00:04:45,640 --> 00:04:49,320
Speaker 1: look you dead in the eye and say, well, gee whiz,

87
00:04:49,520 --> 00:04:51,960
Speaker 1: we have no idea why this is happening. Must be

88
00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:56,520
Speaker 1: the Republicans. I guess. Just listen to House Democrat Jason Crowe,

89
00:04:56,960 --> 00:05:00,240
Speaker 1: who said this on CBS Sunday Morning cut number one.

90
00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:03,120
Speaker 4: So we are ready to go. They are in control.

91
00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:06,720
Speaker 4: Government are left stuck.

92
00:05:06,839 --> 00:05:08,680
Speaker 8: We're about to be in spring break heavy traffic.

93
00:05:08,760 --> 00:05:10,800
Speaker 4: I see the Republic. They are in control of every

94
00:05:10,880 --> 00:05:13,080
Speaker 4: element of government. They're in control of what we vote

95
00:05:13,080 --> 00:05:16,440
Speaker 4: for and don't vote for. We are saying, let's open.

96
00:05:16,160 --> 00:05:16,720
Speaker 5: It back up.

97
00:05:18,560 --> 00:05:20,240
Speaker 2: Absolute gas lighting.

98
00:05:20,400 --> 00:05:25,680
Speaker 1: Democrats have repeatedly voted to keep DHS shut down. Democrat

99
00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:28,960
Speaker 1: after Democrat goes to the floor of the House and

100
00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:32,240
Speaker 1: the United States Senate and they vote time and again

101
00:05:32,360 --> 00:05:36,279
Speaker 1: to keep DHS shut down. There are two parties here, folks.

102
00:05:36,279 --> 00:05:40,800
Speaker 1: One is repeatedly voting to inflict pain and suffering on

103
00:05:40,920 --> 00:05:45,160
Speaker 1: American travelers, all because they want to throw a tantrum

104
00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:50,520
Speaker 1: over immigration enforcement. Remember that is the underlying issue here.

105
00:05:50,880 --> 00:05:55,799
Speaker 1: The TSA shutdown is akin to Democratic radicals gluing themselves

106
00:05:55,880 --> 00:05:58,080
Speaker 1: to the middle of a freeway or invading an art

107
00:05:58,160 --> 00:06:02,359
Speaker 1: museum and throwing oil on the paintings. It's nothing more

108
00:06:02,720 --> 00:06:05,919
Speaker 1: than a tantrum, except it's no longer confined to just

109
00:06:05,960 --> 00:06:09,400
Speaker 1: a few crazy nutjobs. It is the new policy of

110
00:06:09,440 --> 00:06:14,400
Speaker 1: an entire political party to act this way and the issue.

111
00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:18,800
Speaker 1: The issue is immigration. Fundamentally, Democrats do not want there

112
00:06:18,880 --> 00:06:24,400
Speaker 1: to be any enforcement of our national immigration laws. None, zero,

113
00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:29,280
Speaker 1: and of course that attitude continues to have deadly consequences

114
00:06:29,320 --> 00:06:32,039
Speaker 1: for our country as well. Have you heard about the

115
00:06:32,080 --> 00:06:36,320
Speaker 1: tragic situation in Chicago this weekend? A young woman out

116
00:06:36,360 --> 00:06:39,520
Speaker 1: with friends just after one o'clock in the morning near

117
00:06:39,560 --> 00:06:44,040
Speaker 1: the water on a cool Chicago night. Sheridan Gorman had

118
00:06:44,120 --> 00:06:47,560
Speaker 1: heard you might be able to see the northern lights

119
00:06:47,760 --> 00:06:50,719
Speaker 1: at that hour, so she and her friends walked down

120
00:06:50,760 --> 00:06:55,120
Speaker 1: to the pier near Loyola University, where she was a freshman,

121
00:06:55,440 --> 00:06:59,039
Speaker 1: to look up for something beautiful. Miss Gorman was a

122
00:06:59,080 --> 00:07:01,760
Speaker 1: young woman who her Fami family says made people seen

123
00:07:02,240 --> 00:07:06,240
Speaker 1: safe and loved. It was a life that was just beginning.

124
00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:10,800
Speaker 1: And then out of the darkness, a man approached. Police

125
00:07:10,840 --> 00:07:15,040
Speaker 1: say he opened fire into the group. Miss Gorman turned

126
00:07:15,040 --> 00:07:18,160
Speaker 1: to run, but she did not make it, shot in

127
00:07:18,200 --> 00:07:21,360
Speaker 1: the head, pronounced dead right there on the scene, just

128
00:07:21,480 --> 00:07:26,320
Speaker 1: steps from her campus. Authorities now say she was likely

129
00:07:26,360 --> 00:07:29,360
Speaker 1: not even the target, but she was there living her life,

130
00:07:30,160 --> 00:07:34,000
Speaker 1: a life that was taken by a Venezuelan national, an

131
00:07:34,000 --> 00:07:37,600
Speaker 1: illegal immigrant who should not have been in our country

132
00:07:37,720 --> 00:07:41,360
Speaker 1: at all. Jose Medina is his name. Caught at the

133
00:07:41,360 --> 00:07:45,240
Speaker 1: border in twenty twenty three and released into our country

134
00:07:45,440 --> 00:07:49,560
Speaker 1: by the Biden administration, he winds up in Chicago and

135
00:07:49,640 --> 00:07:52,640
Speaker 1: was later arrested for shoplifting. He did not show up

136
00:07:52,680 --> 00:07:55,600
Speaker 1: in court, of course, he remained free to roam our

137
00:07:55,640 --> 00:07:59,080
Speaker 1: streets thanks to Democratic politicians who want to invite and

138
00:07:59,160 --> 00:08:01,920
Speaker 1: keep as many violent and illegal aliens into our country

139
00:08:02,600 --> 00:08:08,800
Speaker 1: as possible. One deliberate policy decision after another designed to

140
00:08:08,880 --> 00:08:13,600
Speaker 1: keep a criminal alien here and put Miss Gorman and

141
00:08:13,680 --> 00:08:19,240
Speaker 1: all of you in grave danger one encounter, one decision

142
00:08:19,280 --> 00:08:24,120
Speaker 1: after another, until finally, a young woman looking up at.

143
00:08:24,080 --> 00:08:24,800
Speaker 2: The sky.

144
00:08:26,080 --> 00:08:30,920
Speaker 1: Never looked up again. And what is left a shattered family,

145
00:08:32,040 --> 00:08:36,440
Speaker 1: an empty chair in a classroom, and a voice that

146
00:08:36,559 --> 00:08:39,960
Speaker 1: no one will ever hear on this earth again.

147
00:08:41,679 --> 00:08:42,079
Speaker 2: Tragic.

148
00:08:42,760 --> 00:08:44,600
Speaker 1: We don't have to live this way, folks. We do

149
00:08:44,679 --> 00:08:48,679
Speaker 1: not have to live this way. And other news. Senator

150
00:08:48,720 --> 00:08:52,600
Speaker 1: Mark Wayne Mullen's nomination to lead the Department of Homeland

151
00:08:52,640 --> 00:08:56,679
Speaker 1: Security advanced this weekend on the Senate floor by a

152
00:08:56,760 --> 00:08:59,360
Speaker 1: vote of fifty four to thirty seven. He got two

153
00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:04,520
Speaker 1: Democratic vot's actually final confirmation expected today or tomorrow. The

154
00:09:04,559 --> 00:09:09,640
Speaker 1: Trump administration is preparing to deport Kilmer Abrego Garcia. Finally,

155
00:09:10,280 --> 00:09:13,959
Speaker 1: the government's asking a federal judge to lift an injunction

156
00:09:14,200 --> 00:09:18,880
Speaker 1: blocking the deportation of Garcia to Liberia. Officials argue the

157
00:09:18,880 --> 00:09:22,559
Speaker 1: court overstepped its authority. They say preventing his removal is

158
00:09:22,640 --> 00:09:26,319
Speaker 1: a clear error of law. The Justice Department says it's

159
00:09:26,360 --> 00:09:29,840
Speaker 1: ready to deport Abrego Garcia as soon as this legal

160
00:09:29,880 --> 00:09:33,959
Speaker 1: barrier is removed. They're pushing for a decision by mid April.

161
00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:37,600
Speaker 1: You remember Kilmer Abrego Garcia in our country illegally for

162
00:09:37,760 --> 00:09:41,080
Speaker 1: years and years, part of a MS thirteen gang, indicted

163
00:09:41,160 --> 00:09:44,400
Speaker 1: in a human trafficking case, abusive to his spouse. This

164
00:09:44,600 --> 00:09:47,720
Speaker 1: was the person the news media called the Maryland Man

165
00:09:48,320 --> 00:09:50,559
Speaker 1: instead of what he is, which is an illegal alien

166
00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:55,040
Speaker 1: who has long overstayed his welcome in the United States.

167
00:09:55,559 --> 00:09:59,560
Speaker 1: Let's talk about aches and pain. Since discovering relief Factor

168
00:09:59,720 --> 00:10:02,959
Speaker 1: la Summer, I've been talking about it NonStop on the

169
00:10:03,040 --> 00:10:05,920
Speaker 1: radio because we and the Jennings household are quite happy

170
00:10:05,920 --> 00:10:09,559
Speaker 1: with relief factor. That includes me also my father. Here

171
00:10:09,600 --> 00:10:12,400

00:10:30,640 --> 00:10:34,959

185
00:10:58,960 --> 00:11:01,600
Speaker 1: on the war in Iran, lots of news. Our national

186
00:11:01,640 --> 00:11:05,240
Speaker 1: security expert Rebecca Heinrix is here. All the latest on

187
00:11:05,280 --> 00:11:07,760
Speaker 1: the long range missiles in what President Trump has said.

188
00:11:08,200 --> 00:11:09,360
Speaker 2: More after this.

189
00:11:10,679 --> 00:11:13,880
Speaker 1: Hey, it's Scott, and I'm so excited to welcome Crowdhealth

190
00:11:13,960 --> 00:11:16,400
Speaker 1: as a new partner to the Scott Jennings Show. For

191
00:11:16,480 --> 00:11:20,839
Speaker 1: several years, I'm hearing more people voicing frustration with traditional

192
00:11:20,840 --> 00:11:25,319
Speaker 1: health insurance. Bad incentives baked into Obamacare have sent cost soaring.

193
00:11:25,720 --> 00:11:28,800
Speaker 1: The rules are a maze of jargon, and people feel stuck.

194
00:11:29,240 --> 00:11:32,319
Speaker 1: That's why I want to tell you about my new partner, Crowdhealth.

195
00:11:32,760 --> 00:11:36,040
Speaker 1: Crowdhealth is an insurance. It's a community that cuts out

196
00:11:36,040 --> 00:11:39,760
Speaker 1: the middleman to help one another fund medical expenses, giving

197
00:11:39,800 --> 00:11:43,679
Speaker 1: you more freedom, fewer surprises, and greater control over your

198
00:11:43,720 --> 00:11:47,199
Speaker 1: healthcare choices. And when it comes to cost, members are

199
00:11:47,240 --> 00:11:52,040
Speaker 1: spending hundreds less per month compared to traditional insurance. Right now,

200
00:11:52,120 --> 00:11:54,439
Speaker 1: you can get started for just ninety nine dollars per

201
00:11:54,480 --> 00:11:56,120
Speaker 1: month for your first three months.

00:12:13,679 --> 00:12:14,680
Speaker 9: is how we win.

208
00:12:15,080 --> 00:12:18,120
Speaker 10: One man standing tall against the leftist mob.

209
00:12:18,440 --> 00:12:19,600

Speaker 1: relates to the war in Iran, Operation Epic Fury. The

220
00:12:49,720 --> 00:12:52,840
Speaker 1: President's made a number of statements today and we learned

221
00:12:52,880 --> 00:12:57,080
Speaker 1: some things about Iranian missile capabilities over the weekend. Joining

222
00:12:57,120 --> 00:13:01,200
Speaker 1: me our frequent national security expert. She's on here all

223
00:13:01,280 --> 00:13:03,000
Speaker 1: the time. You got to listen to her. Her name's

224
00:13:03,040 --> 00:13:06,800
Speaker 1: Rebecca Heinrich's director for the Keystone Defense Initiative at the

225
00:13:06,840 --> 00:13:11,160
Speaker 1: Hudson Institute, where she is a senior fellow. Rebecca, let's

226
00:13:11,160 --> 00:13:14,480
Speaker 1: get right into it. First things first, let's listen to

227
00:13:14,520 --> 00:13:18,040
Speaker 1: President Trump and Cut number twenty one. He has said

228
00:13:18,600 --> 00:13:23,560
Speaker 1: he'd like to pause strikes on Iranian energy infrastructure for

229
00:13:23,600 --> 00:13:24,240
Speaker 1: five days.

230
00:13:24,240 --> 00:13:25,920
Speaker 2: Here's the President and Cut twenty one.

231
00:13:26,720 --> 00:13:30,520
Speaker 3: So the discussions took place yesterday, They went into yesterday evening.

232
00:13:33,080 --> 00:13:35,079
Speaker 4: They want very much to make a deal.

233
00:13:35,440 --> 00:13:36,800
Speaker 7: We'd like to make a deal too.

234
00:13:37,360 --> 00:13:38,000
Speaker 4: We're going to.

235
00:13:37,960 --> 00:13:43,200
Speaker 3: Get together today by probably phone, because it's very hard

236
00:13:43,240 --> 00:13:46,400
Speaker 3: to find a country. It's very hard for them to.

237
00:13:46,400 --> 00:13:48,320
Speaker 4: Get out, I guess.

238
00:13:48,360 --> 00:13:51,960
Speaker 3: But well, at some point, very soon meet we're.

239
00:13:51,720 --> 00:13:52,880
Speaker 1: Doing a five day parade.

240
00:13:52,920 --> 00:13:55,640
Speaker 3: We'll see how that goes, and then it goes, well,

241
00:13:55,679 --> 00:13:58,839
Speaker 3: we're gonna end up with settling this. Otherwise we'll just

242
00:13:58,920 --> 00:13:59,760
Speaker 3: keep bombing our.

243
00:13:59,679 --> 00:14:03,719
Speaker 1: Little Rebecca Heinrich, you heard the president. What do you

244
00:14:03,760 --> 00:14:04,199
Speaker 1: make of it?

245
00:14:05,400 --> 00:14:07,920
Speaker 8: Well, look, it seems to me pretty clear as of

246
00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:13,040
Speaker 8: last week that President Trump is really pursuing this course

247
00:14:13,120 --> 00:14:17,040
Speaker 8: of strategy to get the Iran regime, whatever rump regime

248
00:14:17,120 --> 00:14:20,560
Speaker 8: is left in there, to stop threatening the Straight of Hormuz,

249
00:14:20,640 --> 00:14:24,600
Speaker 8: and so he with the Israelis have been threatening basically

250
00:14:24,640 --> 00:14:27,800
Speaker 8: to hit you know, these other energy markets inside Iran.

251
00:14:28,080 --> 00:14:30,680
Speaker 8: The GUS doesn't want to do that, Scott, because we

252
00:14:30,720 --> 00:14:32,760
Speaker 8: don't want to hurt the Iranian people. And like this,

253
00:14:32,760 --> 00:14:35,480
Speaker 8: this big L and G field that's connected with Cutter

254
00:14:35,920 --> 00:14:40,280
Speaker 8: provides eighty to ninety percent of the electricity domestically inside Iran.

255
00:14:40,360 --> 00:14:42,000
Speaker 8: So we don't want to do that, but we want

256
00:14:42,000 --> 00:14:44,440
Speaker 8: the Iranians to know that we can do that. And

257
00:14:44,480 --> 00:14:46,280
Speaker 8: so Trump, you know, he said today, look, we're going

258
00:14:46,360 --> 00:14:49,360
Speaker 8: to pause this, We're not going to hit these these

259
00:14:49,440 --> 00:14:52,720
Speaker 8: sensitive targets because we've got people not talking to us,

260
00:14:53,120 --> 00:14:55,200
Speaker 8: and we don't know a whole lot of details about

261
00:14:55,240 --> 00:14:57,920
Speaker 8: who he's specifically talking to. Because, as the President said today,

262
00:14:57,920 --> 00:14:59,720
Speaker 8: if he told us who he's talking to, that person's

263
00:14:59,800 --> 00:15:00,760
Speaker 8: life would be in danger.

264
00:15:02,280 --> 00:15:05,840
Speaker 1: So there are reports and Barack revied of Axios, and

265
00:15:05,880 --> 00:15:08,600
Speaker 1: you see him on CNN as well. He says that

266
00:15:08,640 --> 00:15:12,440
Speaker 1: an Israeli source has told him that the United States

267
00:15:12,560 --> 00:15:17,120
Speaker 1: envoys Witkoff and Kushner are negotiating with the speaker of

268
00:15:17,160 --> 00:15:22,320
Speaker 1: the Iranian Parliament, a man named Mohammed Bagar Galibov. I

269
00:15:22,360 --> 00:15:24,040
Speaker 1: don't know if you know anything about the speaker of

270
00:15:24,080 --> 00:15:26,720
Speaker 1: the Iranian Parliament, but in your opinion, would this be

271
00:15:26,920 --> 00:15:29,760
Speaker 1: someone that we could reliably negotiate with given that the

272
00:15:29,760 --> 00:15:32,440
Speaker 1: Supreme Leader, even though they say they have one, has

273
00:15:32,480 --> 00:15:36,120
Speaker 1: not been seen in public other than in cardboard cutout form.

274
00:15:36,760 --> 00:15:38,920
Speaker 8: So there's no way for us to know at this point.

275
00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:41,480
Speaker 8: But if President Trump, you know, I kind of was

276
00:15:41,920 --> 00:15:45,320
Speaker 8: sort of tongue in cheek thinking over the weekend, you know,

277
00:15:45,360 --> 00:15:48,640
Speaker 8: President Trump is with the Israelis. The United States is

278
00:15:48,720 --> 00:15:52,760
Speaker 8: essentially killing our way through the most radical Islamic Revolutionary

279
00:15:52,800 --> 00:15:56,680
Speaker 8: guardcore leaders and the besiege those the really bad guys

280
00:15:56,680 --> 00:16:00,000
Speaker 8: who are repressing the Iranian people, killed a lot of people.

281
00:16:00,320 --> 00:16:03,960
Speaker 8: They're a paramilitary group underneath the IRGC. But you know,

282
00:16:04,280 --> 00:16:07,680
Speaker 8: but I said, look, they're looking for Mohammed Delsi Rodriguez.

283
00:16:07,920 --> 00:16:10,520
Speaker 8: They're looking for somebody who, in his heart of hearts,

284
00:16:10,600 --> 00:16:13,480
Speaker 8: might still be really bad, but wants to live more

285
00:16:13,480 --> 00:16:16,400
Speaker 8: than he wants to carry out the Islamic Revolution. So

286
00:16:16,480 --> 00:16:19,520
Speaker 8: anybody really will do as long as he's cooperative. So

287
00:16:19,560 --> 00:16:21,880
Speaker 8: this one guy that you just mentioned, Scott, you know,

288
00:16:21,960 --> 00:16:26,080
Speaker 8: he has a history of being corrupt, duplicitous, trying to

289
00:16:26,080 --> 00:16:28,840
Speaker 8: get close to the Supreme Leader. But you know, he's

290
00:16:28,840 --> 00:16:31,960
Speaker 8: a self he's kind of like a self promoting person.

291
00:16:32,120 --> 00:16:35,000
Speaker 8: And maybe though that that's advice, Maybe that a vice

292
00:16:35,080 --> 00:16:37,120
Speaker 8: is less bad than somebody who's truly committed to the

293
00:16:37,160 --> 00:16:39,600
Speaker 8: Islamic Revolution, and it could be somebody willing to work

294
00:16:39,640 --> 00:16:40,560
Speaker 8: with the United States.

295
00:16:41,680 --> 00:16:45,680
Speaker 1: So based on the President's statements today and what he

296
00:16:45,720 --> 00:16:48,760
Speaker 1: I mean, he's clearly looking for a way to wind

297
00:16:48,800 --> 00:16:51,640
Speaker 1: this down and to do it on the terms that

298
00:16:51,680 --> 00:16:55,200
Speaker 1: we have always said, ending their terrorism ambitions, ending their

299
00:16:55,280 --> 00:16:58,000
Speaker 1: nuclear ambitions, et cetera, et cetera. We have seen some

300
00:16:58,040 --> 00:17:02,040
Speaker 1: positive maneuvering here the oil markets. Crude oil is down,

301
00:17:02,160 --> 00:17:05,200
Speaker 1: It's about ninety dollars right now. Was one hundred a

302
00:17:05,200 --> 00:17:07,320
Speaker 1: little over one hundred dollars overnight. So we've seen a

303
00:17:07,359 --> 00:17:11,560
Speaker 1: big drop in oil right now. Dow Jones Industrial Average

304
00:17:11,640 --> 00:17:15,520
Speaker 1: right now up six hundred and thirty seven points. So

305
00:17:15,680 --> 00:17:19,240
Speaker 1: we see the energy and the financial markets responding, Rebecca,

306
00:17:19,320 --> 00:17:23,639
Speaker 1: to the President's statements today, they're choosing to interpret that

307
00:17:23,840 --> 00:17:27,560
Speaker 1: as Hey, the end may be in sight. Rebecca heinrichk

308
00:17:27,720 --> 00:17:30,520
Speaker 1: is our guest. She's our national security expert. She is

309
00:17:30,520 --> 00:17:33,200
Speaker 1: from the Hudson Institute. Rebecca, we're going to take a break,

310
00:17:33,240 --> 00:17:34,960
Speaker 1: but when we come back, what I want to talk

311
00:17:34,960 --> 00:17:38,520
Speaker 1: to you about are these longer range Iranian missiles that

312
00:17:38,600 --> 00:17:40,840
Speaker 1: we learned about over the weekend. Turns out they can

313
00:17:40,920 --> 00:17:45,159
Speaker 1: hit most of Europe with missiles that previously I'm not

314
00:17:45,200 --> 00:17:46,760
Speaker 1: sure we knew all that much about.

315
00:17:46,800 --> 00:17:48,040
Speaker 2: All that and more coming up.

316
00:17:47,960 --> 00:17:50,760
Speaker 1: Next on the Scott Chenning Show. Gold and silver recently

317
00:17:50,840 --> 00:17:55,040
Speaker 1: soared to record highs and then pulled back, so our

318
00:17:55,080 --> 00:17:59,359
Speaker 1: precious metal still a goodbye. Many Wall Street experts predict

319
00:17:59,440 --> 00:18:02,679
Speaker 1: higher price is ahead. Why well, because we still have

320
00:18:02,760 --> 00:18:07,199
Speaker 1: trillions a national debt, a declining dollar, and inflation that

321
00:18:07,359 --> 00:18:11,280
Speaker 1: keeps shrinking our savings. Even with corrections along the way,

322
00:18:11,520 --> 00:18:16,400
Speaker 1: gold remains a historical hedge for wealth protection. That's why

323

336
00:19:05,800 --> 00:19:08,200
Speaker 1: And you were listening to common sense for the American

337
00:19:08,240 --> 00:19:11,680
Speaker 1: people here on Monday, March twenty third. Tracking a lot

338
00:19:11,720 --> 00:19:16,600
Speaker 1: of news today, including Operation Epic fury the latest on

339
00:19:17,200 --> 00:19:22,120
Speaker 1: the Israeli American war against Iran. Our special guest right

340
00:19:22,119 --> 00:19:25,600
Speaker 1: now Rebecca Heinrix, who is a national security expert. She

341
00:19:25,680 --> 00:19:29,040
Speaker 1: is a senior fellow at the Hudson Institute. Rebecca, thanks

342
00:19:29,040 --> 00:19:32,200
Speaker 1: for hanging on with us. Critical issue popped up over

343
00:19:32,240 --> 00:19:38,040
Speaker 1: the weekend. It turns out the Iranians have longer range missiles,

344
00:19:38,320 --> 00:19:43,960
Speaker 1: much longer range ballistic missiles than was previously known. Talk

345
00:19:44,040 --> 00:19:46,600
Speaker 1: to us about what we learned over the weekend. This

346
00:19:46,800 --> 00:19:50,200
Speaker 1: was really a huge news because it turns out Iran

347
00:19:50,440 --> 00:19:52,640
Speaker 1: is a much bigger threat to a lot more countries

348
00:19:52,680 --> 00:19:53,960
Speaker 1: than people might have realized.

349
00:19:55,320 --> 00:19:57,320
Speaker 8: Right So, Scott, So, one thing to keep in mind

350
00:19:57,480 --> 00:20:00,719
Speaker 8: is that Iran was already just notoriously the country that

351
00:20:00,840 --> 00:20:05,959
Speaker 8: had the most diverse, largest missile force in the region,

352
00:20:06,400 --> 00:20:09,760
Speaker 8: and it had been really working on this for years

353
00:20:09,760 --> 00:20:13,440
Speaker 8: and years. Very controversial at the time that Obama negotiated

354
00:20:13,440 --> 00:20:16,280
Speaker 8: the Iran deal because he did not include its missile program.

355
00:20:16,640 --> 00:20:20,480
Speaker 8: So they've been allowed the Uranians have been essentially been

356
00:20:20,520 --> 00:20:23,480
Speaker 8: allowed to continue to develop it. But the United States

357
00:20:23,560 --> 00:20:28,440
Speaker 8: official sort of public intelligence believed that Iran could hit

358
00:20:28,600 --> 00:20:31,480
Speaker 8: could range certain parts of Europe, but potentially not all

359
00:20:31,560 --> 00:20:34,679
Speaker 8: the way to the UK. What we saw over the

360
00:20:34,680 --> 00:20:38,360
Speaker 8: weekend was that the Iranians were able to They launched

361
00:20:38,400 --> 00:20:42,960
Speaker 8: two missiles towards that island, Diego Garcia, where where the

362
00:20:43,000 --> 00:20:45,480
Speaker 8: United States has a base there, really important base where

363
00:20:45,480 --> 00:20:48,359
Speaker 8: we've been conducting operations off that base. Now neither of

364
00:20:48,400 --> 00:20:52,640
Speaker 8: those missiles hit Diego Garcia. One evidently didn't reach there,

365
00:20:53,080 --> 00:20:55,320
Speaker 8: splash them one in the ocean, and the other one

366
00:20:55,359 --> 00:20:58,760
Speaker 8: was evidently intercepted by one of our missile defense interceptors

367
00:20:58,800 --> 00:21:01,960
Speaker 8: off of a ship. But it does sort of lay

368
00:21:02,000 --> 00:21:05,000
Speaker 8: bare the sort of notion that the Iranians had a

369
00:21:05,000 --> 00:21:08,680
Speaker 8: more limited capability, and also it shows us how really

370
00:21:08,720 --> 00:21:12,240
Speaker 8: impossible it is to put these parameters on their missiles.

371
00:21:12,280 --> 00:21:15,320
Speaker 8: Because the Uranians they could use a lighter payload scot

372
00:21:15,680 --> 00:21:18,399
Speaker 8: to sort of lift it, launch it higher and farther,

373
00:21:18,840 --> 00:21:20,760
Speaker 8: so they could take some of these launchers that we

374
00:21:20,760 --> 00:21:23,520
Speaker 8: thought maybe it was a medium range and extend them

375
00:21:23,680 --> 00:21:26,200
Speaker 8: if they could lighten the load of the payload, which

376
00:21:26,240 --> 00:21:30,400
Speaker 8: gives them a longer reach. Either way, it does kind

377
00:21:30,400 --> 00:21:33,120
Speaker 8: of communicate to the Europeans say, look, this is your

378
00:21:33,160 --> 00:21:34,840
Speaker 8: fight too. None of you are going to be able

379
00:21:34,880 --> 00:21:37,280
Speaker 8: to escape the reach of Iranian missiles.

380
00:21:37,920 --> 00:21:40,679
Speaker 1: Well, let's talk about the reach, because they're talking about

381
00:21:40,720 --> 00:21:45,720
Speaker 1: four thousand kilometers on these missiles. That is long enough

382
00:21:45,760 --> 00:21:49,920
Speaker 1: to reach several European capitals, a lot of Africa. I mean,

383
00:21:50,280 --> 00:21:53,480
Speaker 1: we're talking about a significant number of targets and a

384
00:21:53,480 --> 00:21:56,679
Speaker 1: lot of population that is now in range of some

385
00:21:56,760 --> 00:21:59,080
Speaker 1: of these missiles. And oh, by the way, oh by

386
00:21:59,119 --> 00:22:02,320
Speaker 1: the way, this is from a regime that still says

387
00:22:02,359 --> 00:22:07,640
Speaker 1: they possess enough nuclear material to make at least eleven warheads.

388
00:22:08,080 --> 00:22:10,200
Speaker 1: I mean, this ought to straighten the Europeans up. They've

389
00:22:10,240 --> 00:22:12,560
Speaker 1: been a little reticent here, I think to get involved.

390
00:22:12,600 --> 00:22:14,440
Speaker 1: But if that didn't straighten them up over the weekend,

391
00:22:14,440 --> 00:22:15,640
Speaker 1: what in the world would, Rebecca.

392
00:22:16,920 --> 00:22:19,359
Speaker 8: I think that that's right, and then also important to

393
00:22:19,400 --> 00:22:22,040
Speaker 8: keep in mind to your point about the nuclear program.

394
00:22:22,080 --> 00:22:23,960
Speaker 8: I mean, this is why I was so adamant that

395
00:22:24,000 --> 00:22:25,639
Speaker 8: any kind of deal. I mean I never thought a

396
00:22:25,680 --> 00:22:28,000
Speaker 8: deal was going to be possible with the Iranians, But

397
00:22:28,160 --> 00:22:32,120
Speaker 8: any deal about their nuclear program had to include their missiles,

398
00:22:32,160 --> 00:22:35,640
Speaker 8: because the missiles are the delivery systems for their nuclear weapons,

399
00:22:36,000 --> 00:22:39,439
Speaker 8: and so it didn't make any sense to essentially relieve

400
00:22:39,520 --> 00:22:42,880
Speaker 8: sanctions at all. In certain kinds or ranges of missiles

401
00:22:42,920 --> 00:22:44,680
Speaker 8: for them to be able to continue to develop them,

402
00:22:44,760 --> 00:22:47,399
Speaker 8: because you could then just build a nuclear you to

403
00:22:47,400 --> 00:22:49,520
Speaker 8: have a nuclear breakout and then marry them with the

404
00:22:49,520 --> 00:22:53,880
Speaker 8: ballistic missile. But I noticed that the UK Defense Secretary

405
00:22:54,280 --> 00:22:58,159
Speaker 8: Heely did confirm that those launches did. They were shot

406
00:22:58,200 --> 00:23:02,679
Speaker 8: from Iran towards Diego gart He described them as reckless,

407
00:23:02,760 --> 00:23:06,160
Speaker 8: but not forcing the UK to have a response. Yet

408
00:23:06,440 --> 00:23:08,680
Speaker 8: the UK is coming along though, Scott, I think they're

409
00:23:08,680 --> 00:23:11,720
Speaker 8: getting better. They're obviously letting the United States use Diego

410
00:23:11,760 --> 00:23:14,520
Speaker 8: Garcia now they didn't in the initial part of the conflict,

411
00:23:14,960 --> 00:23:19,119
Speaker 8: and they're releasing our restrictions on how we can use it.

412
00:23:19,440 --> 00:23:21,800
Speaker 8: But we got to have I think President Trump is

413
00:23:21,880 --> 00:23:24,280
Speaker 8: right to pressure the Europeans to say, you may not

414
00:23:24,320 --> 00:23:26,040
Speaker 8: have wanted us to do this to begin with, but

415
00:23:26,080 --> 00:23:29,199
Speaker 8: the fight is now. We're destroying an enemy that is

416
00:23:29,240 --> 00:23:31,879
Speaker 8: a shared enemy, not just of US and the Israelis,

417
00:23:31,880 --> 00:23:34,480
Speaker 8: but of all of Europe. And it would be really

418
00:23:34,520 --> 00:23:37,160
Speaker 8: great to have more of a coalition effort, especially when

419
00:23:37,200 --> 00:23:39,200
Speaker 8: it comes to getting the Strait of Hormose.

420
00:23:38,800 --> 00:23:44,640
Speaker 1: Open, finding out about these longer range missiles really obliterated.

421
00:23:44,720 --> 00:23:47,960
Speaker 1: I think Rebecca, the credibility of a lot of Democrats

422
00:23:47,960 --> 00:23:52,400
Speaker 1: and media people who have staked their arguments and reputations

423
00:23:52,400 --> 00:23:55,920
Speaker 1: on this idea that it Ran was not an imminent threat. Oh,

424
00:23:55,960 --> 00:23:59,000
Speaker 1: they just have short range missiles. They weren't bothering anyone.

425
00:23:59,200 --> 00:24:01,600
Speaker 1: Now we see they can and strike a good chunk

426
00:24:01,640 --> 00:24:04,520
Speaker 1: of Europe and a lot of other places. Do you

427
00:24:04,600 --> 00:24:07,200
Speaker 1: think we're going to see any meya culpas any?

428
00:24:07,400 --> 00:24:07,600
Speaker 11: Oh?

429
00:24:07,640 --> 00:24:10,280
Speaker 1: Wow, gosh. I might have been wrong about that. And

430
00:24:10,800 --> 00:24:13,800
Speaker 1: you know, one thing about punditry and one thing about

431
00:24:13,800 --> 00:24:16,680
Speaker 1: commentary during this war, it's been true from the beginning

432
00:24:16,720 --> 00:24:20,400
Speaker 1: the president has access to more information than any of us,

433
00:24:20,520 --> 00:24:24,199
Speaker 1: any Democrat in Congress, anyone that's out there talking about it.

434
00:24:24,560 --> 00:24:27,200
Speaker 1: But in my opinion, there was a lot of very

435
00:24:27,200 --> 00:24:30,160
Speaker 1: irresponsible talk from the Democrats, who of course just want

436
00:24:30,160 --> 00:24:33,160
Speaker 1: to oppose Donald Trump at every turn. It turns out

437
00:24:33,320 --> 00:24:35,880
Speaker 1: he was right about this. They were an imminent threat,

438
00:24:35,920 --> 00:24:38,720
Speaker 1: and not just to a handful of places in the

439
00:24:38,720 --> 00:24:41,480
Speaker 1: Middle East, but to a lot of other populations and

440
00:24:41,520 --> 00:24:44,040
Speaker 1: a lot of other countries that frankly didn't line up

441
00:24:44,080 --> 00:24:44,480
Speaker 1: with us.

442
00:24:44,400 --> 00:24:44,959
Speaker 2: In the beginning.

443
00:24:46,119 --> 00:24:46,560
Speaker 11: That's right.

444
00:24:46,640 --> 00:24:50,440
Speaker 8: And also, you know, at the Iran regime just by

445
00:24:50,480 --> 00:24:54,119
Speaker 8: having these capabilities, these missiles that can range that far. Obviously,

446
00:24:54,200 --> 00:24:56,720
Speaker 8: the President, I would presume already knew some of the

447
00:24:56,720 --> 00:24:59,480
Speaker 8: capabilities they had that was not public. That gives the

448
00:24:59,480 --> 00:25:02,840
Speaker 8: Iranian a coercive ability, even if they don't launch them.

449
00:25:02,920 --> 00:25:05,560
Speaker 8: The fact that they have that capability means they would

450
00:25:05,560 --> 00:25:09,320
Speaker 8: have enormous leverage and power over these other countries, which

451
00:25:09,480 --> 00:25:12,640
Speaker 8: should be intolerable. So the threat there was a constant

452
00:25:12,680 --> 00:25:15,480
Speaker 8: and ongoing threat from Iran. The other thing to keep

453
00:25:15,480 --> 00:25:17,359
Speaker 8: in mind, which is very frustrating for me, when I

454
00:25:17,359 --> 00:25:20,280
Speaker 8: can continue to hear the Democrats say that the Iranians

455
00:25:20,280 --> 00:25:22,720
Speaker 8: don't have these longer range capabilities or they do not

456
00:25:22,800 --> 00:25:26,120
Speaker 8: pose a direct threat to the United States. So remember

457
00:25:26,400 --> 00:25:29,320
Speaker 8: a space launch vehicle. So what the Iranians use to

458
00:25:29,400 --> 00:25:31,760
Speaker 8: launch satellites which they have been and by the way,

459
00:25:31,800 --> 00:25:38,400
Speaker 8: it's the IRGC, the most militant pro Islamic Republic of Iran,

460
00:25:38,720 --> 00:25:42,120
Speaker 8: a Revolutionary Guard Corps. Those were the men who were

461
00:25:42,200 --> 00:25:46,919
Speaker 8: launching the satellites. That space launch program. That technology can

462
00:25:46,960 --> 00:25:50,920
Speaker 8: be directly converted into an inner continental ballistic missile. Now

463
00:25:50,960 --> 00:25:54,720
Speaker 8: we're talking about the Iranians potentially having the capability to

464
00:25:54,800 --> 00:25:56,560
Speaker 8: span all the way to the east coast of the

465
00:25:56,680 --> 00:25:59,920
Speaker 8: United States. So this is a missile program that you

466
00:26:00,240 --> 00:26:02,240
Speaker 8: want to You want to end it, you want to

467
00:26:02,280 --> 00:26:04,440
Speaker 8: dismantle it. You do not want to have a country

468
00:26:04,480 --> 00:26:08,479
Speaker 8: like iron having this expansive capability. And as Secretary Rubio

469
00:26:08,560 --> 00:26:11,520
Speaker 8: has made clear, in the beginning of Epic Fury, we

470
00:26:11,520 --> 00:26:14,439
Speaker 8: were watching the Iranians build out this ballistic missile program

471
00:26:14,440 --> 00:26:16,879
Speaker 8: and I if it became too robust, it would make

472
00:26:16,920 --> 00:26:19,120
Speaker 8: it harder for the United States to then be able

473
00:26:19,160 --> 00:26:23,320
Speaker 8: to destroy any kind of resumption of their nuclear aspect

474
00:26:23,359 --> 00:26:25,280
Speaker 8: of the program, and so we needed to get rid

475
00:26:25,320 --> 00:26:27,879
Speaker 8: of it. And these other allies need to understand we

476
00:26:27,960 --> 00:26:30,320
Speaker 8: are helping them as well, and they should join the fight.

477
00:26:31,440 --> 00:26:34,399
Speaker 1: Rebecca Heinrich's our guest, our national security expert from the

478
00:26:34,480 --> 00:26:38,640
Speaker 1: Hudson Institute. The President has said a few things this morning, Rebecca,

479
00:26:38,960 --> 00:26:42,880
Speaker 1: about what his demands for Iran would be to end this.

480
00:26:43,520 --> 00:26:45,600
Speaker 1: And it does, by the way, sound like at least

481
00:26:45,680 --> 00:26:48,440
Speaker 1: some talks are going on between his envoys and some

482
00:26:48,600 --> 00:26:51,280
Speaker 1: people who are in the Iranian government. But here are

483
00:26:51,280 --> 00:26:54,399
Speaker 1: the six things the President said. No nuclear bomb, no

484
00:26:54,520 --> 00:26:58,040
Speaker 1: nuclear weapon quote, not even close to it. Number two

485
00:26:58,160 --> 00:27:00,680
Speaker 1: low key on the missiles. He said at number three

486
00:27:00,800 --> 00:27:03,439
Speaker 1: piece in the Middle East. Number four we want the

487
00:27:03,520 --> 00:27:07,879
Speaker 1: nuclear dust. Number five, no enrichment. Number six, we want

488
00:27:07,960 --> 00:27:11,840
Speaker 1: the enriched uranium, which the Iranians told his envoy.

489
00:27:11,520 --> 00:27:13,320
Speaker 2: Witcough that they still possessed.

490
00:27:13,320 --> 00:27:15,600
Speaker 1: And then he said, if this happens, it's a great

491
00:27:15,640 --> 00:27:17,880
Speaker 1: start for a Ran to build itself back, and it's

492
00:27:17,880 --> 00:27:21,040
Speaker 1: everything that we want. In your opinion, is there any

493
00:27:21,080 --> 00:27:25,200
Speaker 1: way the Iranian regime as it is currently constituted, which

494
00:27:25,240 --> 00:27:27,760
Speaker 1: I recognize maybe a hard question to answer, Is there

495
00:27:27,760 --> 00:27:31,159
Speaker 1: any way they'll ever agree to the President's demands here.

496
00:27:31,040 --> 00:27:36,280
Speaker 8: Rebecca, only if you can get to that layer of

497
00:27:36,640 --> 00:27:40,240
Speaker 8: Iranians who have the ability to deliver on those issues

498
00:27:40,240 --> 00:27:45,160
Speaker 8: that President Trump is demanding, and will they want to survive?

499
00:27:45,280 --> 00:27:48,320
Speaker 8: I mean, this is clearly President Trump in the Israelis

500
00:27:48,359 --> 00:27:52,320
Speaker 8: strategy here, which is you know, as President Trump said

501
00:27:52,359 --> 00:27:56,080
Speaker 8: today to that press school, that you know, we're going

502
00:27:56,119 --> 00:28:00,320
Speaker 8: through layers of leadership. And remember the iergy, he's the

503
00:28:00,320 --> 00:28:03,040
Speaker 8: most radical, and then you have the Standing Army, which

504
00:28:03,119 --> 00:28:06,680
Speaker 8: is not as radically committed to the Islamic Revolution as

505
00:28:06,680 --> 00:28:11,240
Speaker 8: the IRGC. We're encouraging defections and so if we can

506
00:28:11,280 --> 00:28:15,920
Speaker 8: get enough people who have you know, power and who

507
00:28:15,960 --> 00:28:18,960
Speaker 8: are willing to cooperate with the United States, you may

508
00:28:19,119 --> 00:28:23,159
Speaker 8: have a more pragmatic government in place. I mean, it

509
00:28:23,200 --> 00:28:26,600
Speaker 8: still seems very, very difficult to believe that it could

510
00:28:26,600 --> 00:28:30,439
Speaker 8: happen after so many decades of this radical regime. But

511
00:28:30,440 --> 00:28:33,920
Speaker 8: but but goodness, Scott, I mean, this is we've never

512
00:28:33,920 --> 00:28:36,520
Speaker 8: really seen anything like this. There's not really a precedent

513
00:28:36,640 --> 00:28:40,960
Speaker 8: for how effective the Israelis in particular have been at

514
00:28:41,040 --> 00:28:46,000
Speaker 8: just you.

515
00:28:46,040 --> 00:28:48,880
Speaker 1: Oh, it sounds like we may have lost the feed

516
00:28:49,040 --> 00:28:51,440
Speaker 1: for Rebecca Heinrich. She was joining us by a phone.

517
00:28:51,480 --> 00:28:53,280
Speaker 1: We're going to try to get her back. Rebecca's a

518
00:28:53,560 --> 00:28:57,480
Speaker 1: senior fellow at the Hudson Institute, and she's our national

519
00:28:57,480 --> 00:29:01,560
Speaker 1: security expert here at the show, you know, interestingly discussing

520
00:29:01,800 --> 00:29:07,120
Speaker 1: the discussing who we're negotiating with in Iran. You know,

521
00:29:07,120 --> 00:29:09,000
Speaker 1: there's some reports that it may be the speaker of

522
00:29:09,000 --> 00:29:13,320
Speaker 1: the Iranian parliament. You know, the Iranian regime has said

523
00:29:13,320 --> 00:29:17,680
Speaker 1: that the Ayatollah Kamane's son is the new Supreme leader,

524
00:29:17,720 --> 00:29:20,440
Speaker 1: but we haven't heard from him personally in public. There's

525
00:29:20,480 --> 00:29:26,240
Speaker 1: a lot of reports that he is injured possibly disfigured

526
00:29:26,280 --> 00:29:27,160
Speaker 1: in really bad shape.

527
00:29:27,160 --> 00:29:28,360
Speaker 2: Do we have Rebecca back by.

528
00:29:28,240 --> 00:29:31,960
Speaker 1: The way, Oh we do, okay, Rebecca, thanks for yeah,

529
00:29:31,960 --> 00:29:33,000
Speaker 1: thanks for hopping back on.

530
00:29:33,600 --> 00:29:35,040
Speaker 2: You know, we got a couple of minutes here.

531
00:29:35,080 --> 00:29:39,000
Speaker 1: My last question for you, really is, what's your gut

532
00:29:39,080 --> 00:29:41,480
Speaker 1: tell you about who is actually running the show there?

533
00:29:41,520 --> 00:29:43,480
Speaker 1: You're talking about it's hard to believe we'll ever get

534
00:29:43,480 --> 00:29:46,280
Speaker 1: these fanatics, you know, to meet any demands that we

535
00:29:46,360 --> 00:29:48,280
Speaker 1: have now we are pounding them pretty hard.

536
00:29:48,920 --> 00:29:51,000
Speaker 2: But what's your gut tell you?

537
00:29:51,160 --> 00:29:53,040
Speaker 1: On the Sun? I mean, this is the son of

538
00:29:53,080 --> 00:29:55,280
Speaker 1: the old Supreme Leader. There's been a lot of reporting

539
00:29:55,320 --> 00:29:58,960
Speaker 1: about him, a cultural and personal issues that may not

540
00:29:59,120 --> 00:30:02,400
Speaker 1: fly inside of Iran. To be honest, He's said to

541
00:30:02,400 --> 00:30:05,720
Speaker 1: be injured, he said to be disfigured, either carrying around

542
00:30:05,760 --> 00:30:08,360
Speaker 1: a cardboard cutout of this guy. What's your gut telling

543
00:30:08,400 --> 00:30:11,320
Speaker 1: you about? Is this person really in charge or not?

544
00:30:12,760 --> 00:30:12,960
Speaker 12: No?

545
00:30:13,040 --> 00:30:15,680
Speaker 8: I don't think that he is, Scott. I think that

546
00:30:16,200 --> 00:30:18,760
Speaker 8: it was huge that when the Israelis took out the

547
00:30:18,800 --> 00:30:21,640
Speaker 8: Supreme Leader. Not only was that, you know, taking out

548
00:30:21,640 --> 00:30:25,160
Speaker 8: their effective you know, leader of the Islamic Revolution, but

549
00:30:25,320 --> 00:30:28,760
Speaker 8: he also had claims to being the leader of the

550
00:30:28,920 --> 00:30:31,720
Speaker 8: entire Muslim world. His defeat I think had a huge

551
00:30:31,760 --> 00:30:36,000
Speaker 8: psychological impact on the regime, and then now the fact

552
00:30:36,040 --> 00:30:39,160
Speaker 8: that his son has not shown himself, I think he's incapacitated.

553
00:30:39,240 --> 00:30:42,400
Speaker 8: So I don't know specifically who the individual players are,

554
00:30:42,480 --> 00:30:46,400
Speaker 8: but it does seem like again that the United States

555
00:30:46,480 --> 00:30:50,000
Speaker 8: is in contact with with some people who may be

556
00:30:50,160 --> 00:30:55,400
Speaker 8: willing to begin to talk about what they may accept

557
00:30:55,520 --> 00:30:58,200
Speaker 8: for the end of this conflict. And I assume that

558
00:30:58,240 --> 00:31:00,800
Speaker 8: we will learn more about that the more convinced they

559
00:31:00,840 --> 00:31:03,520
Speaker 8: are that there's no way they're going to come out

560
00:31:03,520 --> 00:31:06,640
Speaker 8: of this thing in any way that is on terms

561
00:31:07,200 --> 00:31:11,080
Speaker 8: good for the IRGC, which is basically last point. It's

562
00:31:11,120 --> 00:31:14,520
Speaker 8: a rumped IRGC at this point, it's essentially a zombie regime,

563
00:31:15,120 --> 00:31:17,640
Speaker 8: and so in order for them to have any kind

564
00:31:17,680 --> 00:31:19,200
Speaker 8: of future, I think you're going to have to have

565
00:31:19,240 --> 00:31:21,440
Speaker 8: some kind of cooperation with the United States.

566
00:31:22,040 --> 00:31:24,600
Speaker 1: That voice you're hearing Rebecca Heinrich, Senior Fellow at the

567
00:31:24,640 --> 00:31:28,360
Speaker 1: Hudson Institute, our national security expert here at the Scott

568
00:31:28,400 --> 00:31:30,960
Speaker 1: Jennings Show. Rebecca, thanks for all this insight today. We'll

569
00:31:31,000 --> 00:31:34,680
Speaker 1: have you back soon as these developments unfold, especially over

570
00:31:34,720 --> 00:31:37,600
Speaker 1: the next five days, we'll see if the President wishes

571
00:31:37,640 --> 00:31:40,600
Speaker 1: for a five day slow down here on the bombings

572
00:31:40,600 --> 00:31:43,360
Speaker 1: of at least the energy infrastructure continue.

573
00:31:43,520 --> 00:31:45,600
Speaker 2: Let's get a word in from Patriot Mobile.

574
00:31:45,720 --> 00:31:45,920
Speaker 3: Now.

575
00:31:46,080 --> 00:31:49,720
Speaker 1: Most wireless companies do not care who you are or

576
00:31:49,760 --> 00:31:52,320
Speaker 1: what you believe in. They just want your money. The

577
00:31:52,440 --> 00:31:55,800
Speaker 1: opposite is true of my friends at Patriot Mobile. For

578
00:31:55,840 --> 00:31:58,800
Speaker 1: more than twelve years, they have stood with Americans who

579
00:31:58,880 --> 00:32:01,800
Speaker 1: believe freedom is worth the and they have been funding

580
00:32:01,840 --> 00:32:06,000
Speaker 1: the Christian Conservative movement when other people have stayed silent.

581
00:32:06,400 --> 00:32:09,560
Speaker 1: Getting into business with Patriot Mobile means getting into business

582
00:32:09,560 --> 00:32:13,680
Speaker 1: with people who share your values and invest in your values.

583
00:32:14,320 --> 00:32:16,840
Speaker 1: My advice, and I know these guys. They run a

584
00:32:16,840 --> 00:32:21,200
Speaker 1: great company. Go to Patriotmobile dot com, slash Scott or

00:32:31,960 --> 00:32:34,560
Speaker 1: that believes in you and believes in this country. It's

590
00:32:34,600 --> 00:32:38,360
Speaker 1: called Patriot Mobile. Make the switch today. Adam Stall with

591
00:32:38,400 --> 00:32:41,160
Speaker 1: the TSA is up next on the Scott Jenning Show.

592
00:32:41,160 --> 00:32:41,760

593
00:32:42,680 --> 00:32:45,920
Speaker 4: You've heard the narratives. Now give the truth. It's the

594
00:32:46,000 --> 00:32:47,080
Speaker 4: Scott Jenny Show.

595
00:32:48,280 --> 00:32:51,200
Speaker 1: And here on Monday, March twenty third, we are tracking

596
00:32:51,240 --> 00:32:55,040
Speaker 1: all of the breaking news regarding the chaos at American airports.

597
00:32:55,120 --> 00:32:59,440
Speaker 1: We are still seeing long, long wait times in TSA

598
00:32:59,480 --> 00:33:03,400
Speaker 1: lines at major airports across the country, and over the weekend,

599
00:33:03,440 --> 00:33:07,360
Speaker 1: President Trump decided to deploy ice to many airports to

600
00:33:07,400 --> 00:33:10,800
Speaker 1: try to help out with line management and keep things moving.

601
00:33:11,000 --> 00:33:14,520
Speaker 1: For the latest information, we have live joining us on

602
00:33:14,560 --> 00:33:18,000

Speaker 1: of staff of the TSA and he is the acting

604
00:33:21,760 --> 00:33:25,280
Speaker 1: Deputy administrator. Adam, first of all, thanks for coming on

605
00:33:25,320 --> 00:33:28,520
Speaker 1: the show. Second of all, what day of the shutdown?

606
00:33:28,640 --> 00:33:31,040
Speaker 1: Are we at day thirty seven right now? And tell

607
00:33:31,120 --> 00:33:34,000
Speaker 1: us how are things going at nearly two o'clock Eastern

608
00:33:34,000 --> 00:33:34,640
Speaker 1: in your opinion?

609
00:33:35,840 --> 00:33:38,160
Speaker 13: Yeah, I think day said thirty seven sounds about right.

610
00:33:39,000 --> 00:33:43,080
Speaker 13: And you know, we're hoping that we're towards the end,

611
00:33:43,080 --> 00:33:46,040
Speaker 13: not the beginning, of course, but you know, things of

612
00:33:46,040 --> 00:33:47,560
Speaker 13: course are challenging right now.

613
00:33:47,600 --> 00:33:49,480
Speaker 2: You saw, you know, some of the.

614
00:33:49,400 --> 00:33:51,040
Speaker 13: Direction coming from the White House, of course, and we're

615
00:33:51,080 --> 00:33:54,760
Speaker 13: working in close conjunction with them, and i'd really appreciate

616
00:33:54,760 --> 00:33:59,160
Speaker 13: the President. You know borders, our home in director lines

617
00:33:59,720 --> 00:34:02,959
Speaker 13: and course the incoming secretary as well for their support

618
00:34:03,000 --> 00:34:07,320
Speaker 13: to help provide some you know, staffing support, specifically non

619
00:34:07,960 --> 00:34:11,640
Speaker 13: specialized security staffing support from our ice brothers and sisters

620
00:34:11,640 --> 00:34:12,400
Speaker 13: within DHS.

621
00:34:12,440 --> 00:34:13,600
Speaker 2: So it's it's, you.

622
00:34:13,560 --> 00:34:15,880
Speaker 13: Know, we're hoping it will alleviate some pain. But again,

623
00:34:16,560 --> 00:34:19,040
Speaker 13: if we don't see some sort of resolution from Senate Democrats,

624
00:34:19,040 --> 00:34:20,200
Speaker 13: it's going to continue to go worse.

625
00:34:21,280 --> 00:34:24,520
Speaker 1: Okay, Adam, So how are you assessing it right now

626
00:34:24,520 --> 00:34:26,520
Speaker 1: at the major airports? If you were, I mean, look,

627
00:34:26,520 --> 00:34:29,400
Speaker 1: we're in spring break season. So if you're just advising

628
00:34:29,560 --> 00:34:32,480
Speaker 1: the regular traveler right now, who's got a flight you

629
00:34:32,520 --> 00:34:35,360
Speaker 1: know sometime in the next few days. We used to

630
00:34:35,400 --> 00:34:37,800
Speaker 1: tell people to get to the airport two hours in advance,

631
00:34:37,880 --> 00:34:39,080
Speaker 1: what's the advice right now.

632
00:34:40,280 --> 00:34:42,040
Speaker 13: Yeah, I'm not going to sugarcoat it's it's it's a

633
00:34:42,120 --> 00:34:45,560
Speaker 13: challenging environment right now. I think three to four hours

634
00:34:45,880 --> 00:34:48,000
Speaker 13: is probably safe. But I think for folks if they

635
00:34:48,040 --> 00:34:51,239
Speaker 13: have questions about you know, times, current way times, I

636
00:34:51,239 --> 00:34:54,280
Speaker 13: would encourage individuals to reach out both to the airlines

637
00:34:54,320 --> 00:34:56,960
Speaker 13: and they'll receive frequent updates from from the carriers if

638
00:34:57,040 --> 00:35:00,239
Speaker 13: they booked a flight with them or their local airport

639
00:35:00,040 --> 00:35:02,880
Speaker 13: our website they have you know, in real time updates

640
00:35:02,880 --> 00:35:03,279
Speaker 13: as well.

641
00:35:03,719 --> 00:35:04,920
Speaker 2: But again, you.

642
00:35:04,880 --> 00:35:07,960
Speaker 13: Know, please do pre prepared and please be respectful. I

643
00:35:08,000 --> 00:35:11,160
Speaker 13: know it's a challenging environment, but really again underscores the

644
00:35:11,239 --> 00:35:14,320
Speaker 13: importance of having again Senate Democrats come back to the

645
00:35:14,360 --> 00:35:16,520
Speaker 13: table so we can get the department funded again.

646
00:35:17,640 --> 00:35:19,840
Speaker 2: I was in a few airports over the last few days.

647
00:35:19,880 --> 00:35:22,080
Speaker 1: It seemed to me that there was a difference in

648
00:35:22,239 --> 00:35:26,400
Speaker 1: experience between people who had TSA pre check or Clear

649
00:35:26,719 --> 00:35:30,640
Speaker 1: versus people who do not have those things. Obviously, you

650
00:35:30,680 --> 00:35:32,800
Speaker 1: can't scramble and get it, you know, at the blink

651
00:35:32,840 --> 00:35:35,279
Speaker 1: of an eye now, but has that been generally true

652
00:35:35,320 --> 00:35:38,799
Speaker 1: at most airports, Adam, if you have TSA pre or

653
00:35:38,840 --> 00:35:42,600
Speaker 1: some kind of clear membership, is that making it.

654
00:35:42,560 --> 00:35:46,080
Speaker 2: A little better for those folks who have those things? Yeah?

655
00:35:46,080 --> 00:35:48,879
Speaker 13: Absolutely, I think for the most part, we have seen

656
00:35:49,840 --> 00:35:53,640
Speaker 13: significantly shorter times for kind of the frequent traveler, particularly

657
00:35:54,160 --> 00:35:58,359
Speaker 13: TSA pre check individuals that are again, you know, that

658
00:35:58,560 --> 00:36:01,040
Speaker 13: line tends to move quicker, and that's been the case

659
00:36:01,080 --> 00:36:03,400
Speaker 13: both before the shutdown and during the shutdown, but particularly

660
00:36:03,440 --> 00:36:06,200
Speaker 13: with these long times one hundred and twenty minutes, one

661
00:36:06,280 --> 00:36:08,680
Speaker 13: hundred and eighty minutes like the long ones, you will

662
00:36:08,840 --> 00:36:13,440
Speaker 13: generally speaking, that time will be you know, again minimized,

663
00:36:14,040 --> 00:36:18,120
Speaker 13: you know, based on being TSA PRECHECKT versus being standard and.

664
00:36:18,080 --> 00:36:20,760
Speaker 1: Adam talk to us about the ICE agents. They are

665
00:36:20,880 --> 00:36:24,120
Speaker 1: not there doing the security screenings there seem to be

666
00:36:24,200 --> 00:36:26,640
Speaker 1: doing more line management. I know it's only been going

667
00:36:26,680 --> 00:36:29,200
Speaker 1: on for a few hours. Is it your judgment that

668
00:36:29,280 --> 00:36:31,120
Speaker 1: this is working so far? I know the President came

669
00:36:31,200 --> 00:36:33,960
Speaker 1: up with this idea himself over the weekend, But is

670
00:36:34,040 --> 00:36:36,840
Speaker 1: having them there been a net positive so far throughout

671
00:36:37,040 --> 00:36:37,919
Speaker 1: this first day event.

672
00:36:39,280 --> 00:36:41,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, I do, I do think so.

673
00:36:41,080 --> 00:36:44,320
Speaker 13: I think again, having again really appreciate the president support,

674
00:36:44,320 --> 00:36:47,480
Speaker 13: I really appreciate, you know, director alliance from ICE support

675
00:36:47,800 --> 00:36:50,719
Speaker 13: and the workforce from ICE specifically. I think they can

676
00:36:50,760 --> 00:36:54,319
Speaker 13: definitely help us in alleviating some.

677
00:36:54,280 --> 00:36:56,440
Speaker 2: Of that kind of the drain on the workforce.

678
00:36:56,480 --> 00:36:59,240
Speaker 13: I know our folks are overworked, They're of course tired,

679
00:37:00,040 --> 00:37:02,720
Speaker 13: the overwhelm majority are continuing to come in. But having

680
00:37:02,719 --> 00:37:06,160
Speaker 13: their support for again, non specialized security support, whether it's

681
00:37:06,239 --> 00:37:10,800
Speaker 13: manning the exit lanes, general crowd control, online management, the

682
00:37:10,880 --> 00:37:14,120
Speaker 13: best officer support as well, can allow our officers to

683
00:37:14,200 --> 00:37:16,200
Speaker 13: help with, you know, focus more on the kind of

684
00:37:16,200 --> 00:37:20,200
Speaker 13: the more specialized technical training, whether it's manning in operation

685
00:37:20,400 --> 00:37:24,439
Speaker 13: X ray machine or baggage you know, image interpretation, those

686
00:37:24,520 --> 00:37:26,160
Speaker 13: kinds of things, and then require a get a little

687
00:37:26,200 --> 00:37:30,200
Speaker 13: more specialized capability and knowledge. It's been helpful, but I

688
00:37:30,200 --> 00:37:32,479
Speaker 13: think again, we have four undred and forty airports across

689
00:37:32,520 --> 00:37:34,920
Speaker 13: the country, So the longer this goes on, it's going

690
00:37:34,960 --> 00:37:38,520
Speaker 13: to continue to worsen, and so I really really urge

691
00:37:38,600 --> 00:37:41,719
Speaker 13: individuals to particularly I'm a Democrats side for senators to

692
00:37:41,800 --> 00:37:44,120
Speaker 13: please do come back to the table because again, this

693
00:37:44,160 --> 00:37:46,160
Speaker 13: is going to continue to get worse. Of course, really

694
00:37:46,200 --> 00:37:49,839
Speaker 13: do appreciate the support from ICE, but again really you know,

695
00:37:50,239 --> 00:37:52,200
Speaker 13: really reinforcing to our folks in the hill to get

696
00:37:52,200 --> 00:37:54,160
Speaker 13: some sort of resolution in short order.

697
00:37:55,080 --> 00:37:57,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, very ridiculous what the Democrats are doing to inflict

698
00:37:57,960 --> 00:37:59,879
Speaker 1: pain on the American people. And Adam, I know you're

699
00:37:59,880 --> 00:38:02,440
Speaker 1: not being paid either, so we appreciate you taking the

700
00:38:02,480 --> 00:38:04,080
Speaker 1: time to come on the show. We're going to take

701
00:38:04,080 --> 00:38:06,360
Speaker 1: a break. We'll keep tracking all of this breaking news

702
00:38:06,840 --> 00:38:09,319
Speaker 1: in the next hour. At Scott Jennings. You're listening to

703
00:38:09,320 --> 00:38:12,759
Speaker 1: common sense for the American people more after this. Don't

704
00:38:12,760 --> 00:38:14,040
Speaker 1: miss a thing, stay right here.

705
00:38:14,160 --> 00:38:17,320
Speaker 4: If the leftists haven't had enough yet, there's more. This

706
00:38:17,360 --> 00:38:18,600
Speaker 4: is the Scott Jenny Show.

707
00:38:18,800 --> 00:38:20,000
Speaker 2: Okay, our number two.

708
00:38:20,120 --> 00:38:23,719
Speaker 1: It is Monday, March twenty third, Common Sense for the

709
00:38:23,800 --> 00:38:29,000
Speaker 1: American people. Scott Jennings broadcasting here on Salomon Broadcasting Live

710
00:38:29,080 --> 00:38:33,319
Speaker 1: today from Louisville, Kentucky. Quick check of the headlines. It

711
00:38:33,440 --> 00:38:40,360
Speaker 1: is still TSA madness at America's airports. Long wait times

712
00:38:40,440 --> 00:38:44,240
Speaker 1: being reported at numerous airports across the country, the big ones,

713
00:38:44,280 --> 00:38:48,120
Speaker 1: the big hubs, Lots of chaos there. If you do

714
00:38:48,200 --> 00:38:52,800
Speaker 1: not have pre check or clear, it's really really bad.

715
00:38:52,920 --> 00:38:54,840
Speaker 2: So take that into account.

716
00:38:54,880 --> 00:38:58,560
Speaker 1: Now, why is all this happening, Well, it's because the Democrats.

717
00:38:58,680 --> 00:39:03,880
Speaker 1: The Democrats still have the Department of Homeland Security shut down.

718
00:39:04,600 --> 00:39:10,280
Speaker 1: Inside of DHS, that's where TSA resides. These TSA agents,

719
00:39:10,520 --> 00:39:13,279
Speaker 1: they've already missed two pay checks, they're about to miss

720
00:39:13,280 --> 00:39:16,680
Speaker 1: a third, so high percentages of them are calling in

721
00:39:16,760 --> 00:39:20,400
Speaker 1: sick or leaving their jobs all together. In some major airports,

722
00:39:20,719 --> 00:39:24,759
Speaker 1: over thirty or even forty percent of the TSA agents

723
00:39:25,080 --> 00:39:28,400
Speaker 1: are simply not coming to work. Let's listen to the

724
00:39:28,400 --> 00:39:32,160
Speaker 1: president today, who says the Democrats must end this madness

725
00:39:32,239 --> 00:39:33,879
Speaker 1: right now and cut twenty four.

726
00:39:34,760 --> 00:39:39,920
Speaker 3: In addition, after the appalling lines and massive disruptions at

727
00:39:39,960 --> 00:39:44,879
Speaker 3: major airports stationwide last weekend, I'm again demanding the Democrats

728
00:39:44,880 --> 00:39:49,360
Speaker 3: in Congress immediately end their disgraceful shutdown of the Department

729
00:39:49,440 --> 00:39:52,319
Speaker 3: of Homeland Security and the restore the full funding for

730
00:39:52,840 --> 00:39:56,879
Speaker 3: airport security and the TSA. They are holding it up

731
00:39:57,440 --> 00:40:00,759
Speaker 3: because they want to take care of illegal immigrants coming

732
00:40:00,800 --> 00:40:01,719
Speaker 3: into our country.

733
00:40:02,080 --> 00:40:03,120
Speaker 4: They want to take care.

734
00:40:03,040 --> 00:40:05,920
Speaker 3: Of criminals that are in sanctuary cities.

735
00:40:08,000 --> 00:40:10,520
Speaker 1: All right, That was the President. He also made some

736
00:40:10,560 --> 00:40:14,160
Speaker 1: remarks today on the war in Iran. He has said

737
00:40:14,160 --> 00:40:18,840
Speaker 1: that he is pausing attacks on Iranian energy infrastructure because

738
00:40:18,880 --> 00:40:23,759
Speaker 1: there are now some negotiations going on between his envoys

739
00:40:23,840 --> 00:40:27,359
Speaker 1: and some people in the Iranian government. It's a little

740
00:40:27,360 --> 00:40:30,080
Speaker 1: bit opaque who that might be, although some sources are

741
00:40:30,080 --> 00:40:33,239
Speaker 1: saying it might be the president of the Iranian Parliament.

742
00:40:33,280 --> 00:40:37,280
Speaker 1: At any rate, oil is down and American financial markets

743
00:40:37,280 --> 00:40:39,880
Speaker 1: are up on that news. We'll keep an eye on

744
00:40:39,920 --> 00:40:43,600
Speaker 1: that Supreme Court today hearing oral arguments in a case

745
00:40:43,760 --> 00:40:47,960
Speaker 1: dealing with mail in ballots, and the conservative justices on

746
00:40:48,000 --> 00:40:51,680
Speaker 1: the court are questioning whether states should be allowed to

747
00:40:51,760 --> 00:40:56,000
Speaker 1: count ballots that are mailed on time but arrive after

748
00:40:56,160 --> 00:40:59,960
Speaker 1: election day. We are following this case today. On tomorrow

749
00:41:00,040 --> 00:41:03,120
Speaker 1: ro show, we'll have Sarah Iger here of Scotis Blog.

750
00:41:03,400 --> 00:41:06,440
Speaker 1: We'll do a deep dive on this. If something were

751
00:41:06,440 --> 00:41:09,280
Speaker 1: to happen to the mail in ballot rules in this case,

752
00:41:09,320 --> 00:41:12,879
Speaker 1: it would affect this November's election. Joining us now, by

753
00:41:12,920 --> 00:41:17,040
Speaker 1: the way, representing the eighth Congressional District of Missouri. Chairman

Speaker 1: Mister Chairman. There's a lot of stuff going on out there,

756
00:41:24,760 --> 00:41:29,840
Speaker 1: including it seems like very soon we'll have a new

757
00:41:30,040 --> 00:41:33,080
Speaker 1: leader for the Department of Homeland Security, Mark Wayne Mullen.

758
00:41:33,120 --> 00:41:35,200
Speaker 1: I bring it up because you know him better than

759
00:41:35,200 --> 00:41:39,600
Speaker 1: almost anyone. He's your roommate in Washington, d C. And

760
00:41:39,640 --> 00:41:42,040
Speaker 1: he cleared a key vote this weekend. What are you

761
00:41:42,080 --> 00:41:44,160
Speaker 1: hearing on his confirmation and what do people need to

762
00:41:44,200 --> 00:41:47,200
Speaker 1: know about Mark Wayne Mullen as he prepares to take

763
00:41:47,239 --> 00:41:49,080
Speaker 1: over the Department of Homeland Security.

764
00:41:49,960 --> 00:41:52,000
Speaker 11: You know, Scott, it's great to always be with you.

765
00:41:53,120 --> 00:41:57,800
Speaker 11: I have actually been friend Trends and I've known Senator

766
00:41:57,840 --> 00:42:02,279
Speaker 11: Mark Wayne Mullin since before or he or myself was

767
00:42:02,360 --> 00:42:07,120
Speaker 11: ever elected to public office in Washington, d C. And

768
00:42:07,200 --> 00:42:10,239
Speaker 11: so it's a different you know, it's definitely we've been

769
00:42:10,280 --> 00:42:13,400
Speaker 11: friends for a couple of decades. And I'll tell you

770
00:42:13,480 --> 00:42:17,160
Speaker 11: the best way to describe Mark Wayne Mullen is I

771
00:42:17,600 --> 00:42:19,239
Speaker 11: said this the other day. I don't know if he

772
00:42:19,480 --> 00:42:22,440
Speaker 11: liked it that much, but I said, on the outside,

773
00:42:22,480 --> 00:42:24,680
Speaker 11: he's like a Hercules, but on the inside he's like

774
00:42:24,719 --> 00:42:29,560
Speaker 11: a Caddy Bear. But he's He's a devoted, devoted husband,

775
00:42:29,640 --> 00:42:34,920
Speaker 11: devoted father. He's been a very successful businessman. He actually

776
00:42:35,000 --> 00:42:39,719
Speaker 11: saved his family's plumbing company and turned it into one

777
00:42:39,760 --> 00:42:43,000
Speaker 11: of the largest plumbing companies in the in the country.

778
00:42:44,080 --> 00:42:47,600
Speaker 11: He's just an all around good, good person.

779
00:42:49,480 --> 00:42:53,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, this nomination is interesting because Mark Wayne is somebody

780
00:42:53,400 --> 00:42:55,920
Speaker 1: who brings together a lot of different parts of the

781
00:42:55,960 --> 00:42:59,719
Speaker 1: Republican Party. And he's also someone that had some bipartisan

782
00:42:59,719 --> 00:43:02,000
Speaker 1: a peace He got I think two Democrat votes in

783
00:43:02,040 --> 00:43:05,919
Speaker 1: the initial vote in the Senate over the weekend. Does

784
00:43:05,960 --> 00:43:08,560
Speaker 1: he have the chance based on your knowledge of how

785
00:43:08,600 --> 00:43:12,400
Speaker 1: he operates, his temperament, his working style, does he have

786
00:43:12,520 --> 00:43:15,960
Speaker 1: the chance to actually bring people together in Washington, D

787
00:43:16,080 --> 00:43:18,360
Speaker 1: c in a way perhaps the Secretary know him, did not.

788
00:43:20,320 --> 00:43:25,120
Speaker 11: He absolutely has a record of bringing people together. A

789
00:43:25,120 --> 00:43:27,360
Speaker 11: lot of people have always referred to him as the

790
00:43:27,440 --> 00:43:30,239
Speaker 11: House whisper. You know, he served in the House of Representatives.

791
00:43:30,239 --> 00:43:32,480
Speaker 11: In the last three years has been over in the

792
00:43:32,560 --> 00:43:35,520
Speaker 11: United States Senate, but he would come to the Republican

793
00:43:35,560 --> 00:43:39,040
Speaker 11: Conference meetings almost on a weekly basis, trying to be

794
00:43:39,160 --> 00:43:42,800
Speaker 11: that bridge. I can remember Scott when we were working

795
00:43:43,000 --> 00:43:45,600
Speaker 11: some of the dynamics in the big Beautiful Bill, the

796
00:43:45,640 --> 00:43:49,520
Speaker 11: Working Family's tax cuts. We had a big issue with

797
00:43:49,640 --> 00:43:53,440
Speaker 11: the state and local tax deduction where the New Yorkers,

798
00:43:53,480 --> 00:43:56,160
Speaker 11: the folks in New Jersey and California, they wanted to

799
00:43:56,239 --> 00:43:58,839
Speaker 11: increase it. You had senators that did not wanted an

800
00:43:58,920 --> 00:44:02,080
Speaker 11: increase at all. Well, Mark Wayne took it upon himself

801
00:44:02,120 --> 00:44:06,280
Speaker 11: to help negotiate that with the House and the Senate,

802
00:44:06,840 --> 00:44:09,239
Speaker 11: and we ultimately got it done and we were able

803
00:44:09,280 --> 00:44:11,239
Speaker 11: to thread that needle. That's what he's going to do

804
00:44:11,760 --> 00:44:14,480
Speaker 11: as the secretary of a department at Homeland Security. He

805
00:44:15,920 --> 00:44:19,640
Speaker 11: has the relationship with his Democrat colleagues. He'll work with him.

806
00:44:19,719 --> 00:44:22,400
Speaker 11: I can tell you since he's been nominated, he's on

807
00:44:22,440 --> 00:44:25,920
Speaker 11: the phone NonStop with all the different House members and

808
00:44:25,960 --> 00:44:28,880
Speaker 11: senators that are calling him because he's kept the same

809
00:44:29,000 --> 00:44:33,760
Speaker 11: phone phone number trying to help them and hear issues

810
00:44:33,760 --> 00:44:37,400
Speaker 11: that they're having with FEMA, PSA, Coast Guard, you name it.

811
00:44:39,080 --> 00:44:43,000
Speaker 1: That's Jason Smith, Congressman from Missouri. He's chairman of the

812
00:44:43,080 --> 00:44:46,920
Speaker 1: powerful House Ways and Means Committee. Mister chairman, let me

813
00:44:47,200 --> 00:44:50,000
Speaker 1: pivot to another policy issue. When you and I last

814
00:44:50,040 --> 00:44:52,480
Speaker 1: saw each other a couple of weeks ago, down at

815
00:44:52,520 --> 00:44:56,080
Speaker 1: the House Republican Conference meeting in Florida, there was a

816
00:44:56,080 --> 00:44:59,080
Speaker 1: lot of conversation going on there about whether the House

817
00:44:59,080 --> 00:45:01,799
Speaker 1: would bring up a recon faciliation package. Some people were

818
00:45:01,840 --> 00:45:03,560
Speaker 1: for it, You were a little cool on it at

819
00:45:03,560 --> 00:45:06,280
Speaker 1: the time. Since then, a couple of things have happened.

820
00:45:06,360 --> 00:45:08,880
Speaker 1: Number one, the White House is asking for a war

821
00:45:09,040 --> 00:45:13,800
Speaker 1: supplemental and number two, it seems like there's some discussion

822
00:45:13,840 --> 00:45:18,680
Speaker 1: around the possibility of funding DHS through a reconciliation bill.

823
00:45:19,080 --> 00:45:21,880
Speaker 1: So there's new inputs. Now, I'm itched in your opinion,

824
00:45:21,920 --> 00:45:24,120
Speaker 1: where do we stand on that in the House? Are

825
00:45:24,120 --> 00:45:26,360
Speaker 1: we looking at reconciliation two point zero?

826
00:45:26,840 --> 00:45:27,520
Speaker 2: In your opinion?

827
00:45:28,400 --> 00:45:30,160
Speaker 11: You know, I've said it all along. I would love

828
00:45:30,200 --> 00:45:33,400
Speaker 11: to have a second reconciliation bill. But I just think

829
00:45:33,480 --> 00:45:35,920
Speaker 11: that the reality of being able to muster up the

830
00:45:36,280 --> 00:45:39,000
Speaker 11: necessary votes in the House and the Senate are going

831
00:45:39,040 --> 00:45:42,520
Speaker 11: to be difficult. In a reconciliation bill, you have to

832
00:45:42,560 --> 00:45:47,520
Speaker 11: have something that unifies your party. In the last one,

833
00:45:48,600 --> 00:45:52,919
Speaker 11: making sure that the tax cuts did not expire and

834
00:45:53,239 --> 00:45:57,520
Speaker 11: also securing the border were two things that unified us. Well,

835
00:45:57,560 --> 00:46:01,120
Speaker 11: we've taken care of those. We have the issues with

836
00:46:01,960 --> 00:46:07,239
Speaker 11: Department of Homeland funding, which it's so ridiculous that the

837
00:46:07,239 --> 00:46:10,800
Speaker 11: Democrats will not step up and fund TFA agents and

838
00:46:11,600 --> 00:46:16,719
Speaker 11: FEMA and the Coastguard. But I think it will be very,

839
00:46:16,800 --> 00:46:19,480
Speaker 11: very difficult to pass the second reconciliation bill. That's why

840
00:46:19,480 --> 00:46:22,360
Speaker 11: I said all along we needed to have one big

841
00:46:22,440 --> 00:46:28,720
Speaker 11: reconciliation bill. But if it's a very narrowly defined bill,

842
00:46:29,080 --> 00:46:32,080
Speaker 11: it might be able to But I still would give

843
00:46:32,120 --> 00:46:34,520
Speaker 11: it like a half of one percent chance.

844
00:46:35,880 --> 00:46:39,240
Speaker 1: The last reconciliation, just to go back in time last summer,

845
00:46:39,760 --> 00:46:43,760
Speaker 1: contains significant tax relief for the American people, mister Chairman,

846
00:46:43,840 --> 00:46:46,200
Speaker 1: and right now people are filing their taxes and they

847
00:46:46,239 --> 00:46:49,719
Speaker 1: are getting big time refunds from the IRS. Just a

848
00:46:49,760 --> 00:46:52,560
Speaker 1: quick comment from you was that the intent to get

849
00:46:52,560 --> 00:46:55,480
Speaker 1: more refunds back into people's pockets and tax relief to

850
00:46:55,560 --> 00:46:58,440
Speaker 1: working Americans. Is that the biggest result of last summer's

851
00:46:58,760 --> 00:47:01,160
Speaker 1: reconciliation package, that was.

852
00:47:01,160 --> 00:47:05,000
Speaker 11: The absolute reason why we pass these tax cuts is

853
00:47:05,040 --> 00:47:08,360
Speaker 11: for working families, small businesses, and farmers. And you're seeing

854
00:47:08,360 --> 00:47:11,680
Speaker 11: more than four hundred billion dollars in tax refunds. It's

855
00:47:11,719 --> 00:47:14,479
Speaker 11: actually the largest refunds in the history of America. In fact,

856
00:47:14,520 --> 00:47:18,919
Speaker 11: they're up by more than ten percent this year over last.

857
00:47:19,080 --> 00:47:22,440
Speaker 11: I was in my district just just recently and talked

858
00:47:22,440 --> 00:47:25,120
Speaker 11: to a waitress who came up to me and said

859
00:47:25,120 --> 00:47:28,600
Speaker 11: that her tax refund was over ten thousand dollars because

860
00:47:28,600 --> 00:47:31,040
Speaker 11: of the notes love us on tips and overtime.

861
00:47:31,080 --> 00:47:35,200
Speaker 1: That's good stuff, really good stuff from Jason Smith. He's

862
00:47:35,200 --> 00:47:37,759
Speaker 1: from Missouri. He's a Congressman, and he's chairman of the

863
00:47:37,760 --> 00:47:40,120
Speaker 1: powerful House Ways and Means Committee, one of the most

864
00:47:40,120 --> 00:47:44,359
Speaker 1: influential policymakers in our nation's capital. Mister Chairman, thanks for

865
00:47:44,400 --> 00:47:46,759
Speaker 1: your time today. We take a break. When we come back,

Speaker 2: This November.

903
00:49:48,880 --> 00:49:53,200
Speaker 1: President Trump today traveling. He is down in Memphis, Tennessee,

904
00:49:53,880 --> 00:49:58,400
Speaker 1: touting his administration's efforts to lower crime. And by the way,

905
00:49:58,760 --> 00:50:04,600
Speaker 1: the statistics do do not lie crime. Violent crime is

906
00:50:04,680 --> 00:50:09,840
Speaker 1: down in America and in one of the biggest success stories, Memphis, Tennessee.

907
00:50:10,600 --> 00:50:12,960
Speaker 1: You couldn't walk around Memphis. I was there the other

908
00:50:13,040 --> 00:50:17,440
Speaker 1: day a few weeks ago. People down there, Democrats and Republicans,

909
00:50:17,480 --> 00:50:19,960
Speaker 1: were telling me you couldn't come around Theld Street, you

910
00:50:20,000 --> 00:50:23,400
Speaker 1: couldn't go downtown. One of the worst places in America.

911
00:50:23,800 --> 00:50:27,239
Speaker 1: Trump sends in this federal task force, a mixture of

912
00:50:27,280 --> 00:50:30,880
Speaker 1: federal agents. The governor of Tennessee wanted him there. You

913
00:50:30,920 --> 00:50:33,440
Speaker 1: had state police, you had local police. So you had

914
00:50:33,440 --> 00:50:37,320
Speaker 1: this incredible working group, this task Force, Memphis Safe task Force.

915
00:50:37,760 --> 00:50:42,520
Speaker 1: Now they've arrested like thousands of violent criminals, a bunch

916
00:50:42,520 --> 00:50:46,320
Speaker 1: of gang members. And you walk around Memphis right now,

917
00:50:46,760 --> 00:50:49,960
Speaker 1: people are returning. You could actually go down there, let's

918
00:50:49,960 --> 00:50:51,640
Speaker 1: hear from the president and cut twenty eight.

919
00:50:52,840 --> 00:50:55,880
Speaker 3: But under the Trump administration, we believe that no city

920
00:50:55,960 --> 00:50:59,920
Speaker 3: or neighborhood should be left behind. In Memphis, the crime

921
00:51:00,080 --> 00:51:04,240
Speaker 3: became so horrible that residents were made prisoners of violence

922
00:51:04,280 --> 00:51:06,920
Speaker 3: and their own community and their own home. But with

923
00:51:07,040 --> 00:51:09,000
Speaker 3: the help of the great people right here at this

924
00:51:09,080 --> 00:51:12,400
Speaker 3: table and right here, it's a whole different story.

925
00:51:12,480 --> 00:51:12,919
Speaker 4: Right now.

926
00:51:12,960 --> 00:51:16,719
Speaker 3: It's changing fast, and they'll be record setting in a

927
00:51:16,880 --> 00:51:18,840
Speaker 3: very short period of time, and I'll be here to

928
00:51:18,880 --> 00:51:20,520
Speaker 3: celebrate it with you.

929
00:51:22,000 --> 00:51:27,040
Speaker 1: I'd say Washington, d C. And Memphis maybe the two

930
00:51:27,160 --> 00:51:30,279
Speaker 1: biggest success stories. And in Memphis, I think there was

931
00:51:30,360 --> 00:51:34,800
Speaker 1: like early skepticism from the local democrats. You know, violent

932
00:51:34,840 --> 00:51:38,239
Speaker 1: crime happens in cities where Democrats are in charge. I mean,

933
00:51:38,239 --> 00:51:42,280
Speaker 1: that's basically what happens in America. The most violent places

934
00:51:42,680 --> 00:51:45,480
Speaker 1: Democrat run cities. Same was true of Memphis. There was

935
00:51:45,520 --> 00:51:49,319
Speaker 1: initial skepticism, then they embraced it, and then they realized,

936
00:51:49,920 --> 00:51:52,439
Speaker 1: how you know, it's better to run a city where

937
00:51:52,440 --> 00:51:56,360
Speaker 1: there aren't violent criminals running wild, driving out everybody else.

938
00:51:57,120 --> 00:51:59,360
Speaker 2: So that's a good thing. The President on the road today.

939
00:52:00,080 --> 00:52:04,240
Speaker 1: Also a little political news, Elizabeth Warren, Senator from Massachusetts,

940
00:52:04,360 --> 00:52:07,520
Speaker 1: is doing a bunch of endorsements here in the Senate

941
00:52:07,560 --> 00:52:14,279
Speaker 1: primary season. She is getting engaged in the main Senate race. Now,

942
00:52:14,360 --> 00:52:17,000
Speaker 1: Chuck Schumer and the Democrat Senate Committee they want the

943
00:52:17,000 --> 00:52:21,240
Speaker 1: governor of Maine, Janet Mills. She's sort of the establishment choice,

944
00:52:21,239 --> 00:52:27,239
Speaker 1: but Elizabeth Warren is jumping in for this. Yahoo Graham Platner.

945
00:52:27,840 --> 00:52:30,360
Speaker 1: Now you've heard us talk about Platner here on the show.

946
00:52:31,480 --> 00:52:35,520
Speaker 1: He's the guy that had the Nazi tattoo. Every time

947
00:52:35,560 --> 00:52:38,279
Speaker 1: I say, it doesn't even sound real, but it is.

948
00:52:39,440 --> 00:52:43,760
Speaker 1: The Democrats, the radical progressives are pushing a guy named

949
00:52:43,760 --> 00:52:47,120
Speaker 1: Graham Platner who for years had a Nazi tattoo on

950
00:52:47,160 --> 00:52:50,520
Speaker 1: his chest. He then gets it turned into something else.

951
00:52:50,800 --> 00:52:52,680
Speaker 1: A few days ago. He says, you know what, I

952
00:52:52,680 --> 00:52:55,919
Speaker 1: should have never apologized for that. I am what I am,

953
00:52:56,400 --> 00:52:59,279
Speaker 1: a guy with a Nazi tattoo. Now Elizabeth Warren is

954
00:52:59,280 --> 00:53:01,960
Speaker 1: all for this guy. But you know it's funny. I

955
00:53:02,000 --> 00:53:05,880
Speaker 1: seem to recall when Pete Hegseth was going through his

956
00:53:05,960 --> 00:53:10,359
Speaker 1: confirmation for Secretary of Defense. Do you guys remember tattoo Gate?

957
00:53:11,280 --> 00:53:15,680
Speaker 1: Heg Seth had a tattoo, was a Christian symbol, a

958
00:53:15,840 --> 00:53:20,680
Speaker 1: Christian symbol. Elizabeth Warren said, whoa, this tattoo looks like

959
00:53:20,719 --> 00:53:23,520
Speaker 1: a threat to me. So with heg Seth a Christian tattoo,

960
00:53:23,600 --> 00:53:27,960
Speaker 1: bad platner, Nazi tattoo. Fine. I ought to give you

961
00:53:28,000 --> 00:53:31,600
Speaker 1: an idea where the Democrats and the radical progressives are

962
00:53:31,800 --> 00:53:33,879
Speaker 1: Right now, We're gonna take a break. When we come back,

963
00:53:33,920 --> 00:53:36,560
Speaker 1: Mike Lawler and Congressman from New York is here. Scott

964
00:53:36,600 --> 00:53:37,560
Speaker 1: on Salem, stay with.

965
00:53:37,600 --> 00:53:41,440
Speaker 10: Hus treedom to speak clearly with no leftist lunacy.

966
00:53:41,880 --> 00:53:43,479
Speaker 4: This is the Scott Jenny Show.

967
00:53:44,840 --> 00:53:46,600
Speaker 2: It is Monday, March twenty third.

968
00:53:47,760 --> 00:53:54,680
Speaker 1: If you are not outraged by this latest story of

969
00:53:55,040 --> 00:53:58,279
Speaker 1: an illegal immigrant murdering someone in the United States, you

970
00:53:58,400 --> 00:54:01,600
Speaker 1: really ought to be. The details are terrible happened in

971
00:54:01,680 --> 00:54:06,800
Speaker 1: Chicago over the weekend. An eighteen year old college freshman

972
00:54:06,880 --> 00:54:13,080
Speaker 1: at Loyola Chicago named Sheridan Gorman. Miss Gorman went out

973
00:54:13,200 --> 00:54:16,359
Speaker 1: in the evening with her friends. They thought they could

974
00:54:16,400 --> 00:54:18,799
Speaker 1: see the northern lights. That's why they went outside, so

975
00:54:18,840 --> 00:54:19,200
Speaker 1: they took.

976
00:54:19,120 --> 00:54:19,800
Speaker 2: A little walk.

977
00:54:20,520 --> 00:54:23,520
Speaker 1: While they were out, they were shot up and shot

978
00:54:23,560 --> 00:54:29,600
Speaker 1: at by a Venezuelan migrant who came into our country

979
00:54:31,440 --> 00:54:35,279
Speaker 1: in twenty twenty three during the Biden administration. He was

980
00:54:35,400 --> 00:54:38,759
Speaker 1: caught and released by the Biden administration. He makes his

981
00:54:38,800 --> 00:54:44,160
Speaker 1: way to Chicago, where he actually gets arrested on a

982
00:54:44,440 --> 00:54:46,960
Speaker 1: shoplifting charge.

983
00:54:47,280 --> 00:54:49,200
Speaker 2: They let him go. He and of course never shows

984
00:54:49,280 --> 00:54:49,840
Speaker 2: up for court.

985
00:54:51,600 --> 00:54:56,000
Speaker 1: And here we are on March twenty third, twenty twenty six,

986
00:54:56,160 --> 00:55:01,120
Speaker 1: talking about the fact that he has murdered an eighteen

987
00:55:01,200 --> 00:55:03,400
Speaker 1: year old American named Sheridan Gorman.

988
00:55:03,480 --> 00:55:06,320
Speaker 2: Here to discuss this and other news items.

989
00:55:06,320 --> 00:55:09,719
Speaker 1: Congressman Mike Lawler from New York Congressman, you and I

990
00:55:09,760 --> 00:55:13,239
Speaker 1: were texting about this story. We're both outraged by it.

991
00:55:13,280 --> 00:55:17,560
Speaker 1: All Americans should be outraged by it. What's your perspective here?

992
00:55:17,719 --> 00:55:21,400
Speaker 1: Another illegal alien killing an American citizen.

993
00:55:22,040 --> 00:55:22,640
Speaker 2: It's awful.

994
00:55:24,200 --> 00:55:31,120
Speaker 12: Well, it's a horrible tragedy. Scott. You know, this young girl, bright, funny,

995
00:55:32,480 --> 00:55:35,480
Speaker 12: you know, loved by her family, by her friends. She's

996
00:55:35,520 --> 00:55:39,360
Speaker 12: from my district, grew up in New York Town. You know,

997
00:55:39,920 --> 00:55:43,560
Speaker 12: just a great tragedy. My heart breaks for her family,

998
00:55:43,640 --> 00:55:48,239
Speaker 12: her parents, Tom and Jess, her sister Mattie. You know,

999
00:55:48,680 --> 00:55:52,120
Speaker 12: we have not yet been able to speak to them directly,

1000
00:55:52,320 --> 00:55:56,319
Speaker 12: but have done so through an intermediary, and you know,

1001
00:55:56,360 --> 00:56:01,520
Speaker 12: they're just they're devastated. And it's another tragedy that was

1002
00:56:01,719 --> 00:56:07,360
Speaker 12: entirely preventable if people would follow the law. Illegal immigrants

1003
00:56:07,400 --> 00:56:10,960
Speaker 12: should not be coming into our country. Under Biden, they

1004
00:56:10,960 --> 00:56:16,839
Speaker 12: were released after being caught into our country. That's why

1005
00:56:16,880 --> 00:56:21,040
Speaker 12: ten and a half million migrants flooded our streets. As

1006
00:56:21,080 --> 00:56:25,120
Speaker 12: with Lake and Riley, we saw somebody arrested for committing

1007
00:56:25,120 --> 00:56:27,920
Speaker 12: a crime, only to be released back out onto the

1008
00:56:27,960 --> 00:56:34,200
Speaker 12: street to perpetrate a devastating murder. This should not be

1009
00:56:34,320 --> 00:56:39,080
Speaker 12: happening in America. Everybody should be outraged by it. These

1010
00:56:39,280 --> 00:56:44,000
Speaker 12: individuals who are coming into our country illegally. Number one,

1011
00:56:44,280 --> 00:56:46,520
Speaker 12: they should not be released into the country, which is

1012
00:56:46,520 --> 00:56:50,719
Speaker 12: what President Trump has done. He has stopped the illegal

1013
00:56:50,920 --> 00:56:53,279
Speaker 12: entry into our country. He said he would do it.

1014
00:56:53,360 --> 00:56:56,279
Speaker 12: He has followed through on it. The second step here

1015
00:56:56,360 --> 00:57:01,239
Speaker 12: is these sanctuary jurisdictions need to stop, need to be eliminated.

1016
00:57:01,520 --> 00:57:04,920
Speaker 12: These folks have to cooperate with ICE. If somebody is

1017
00:57:04,960 --> 00:57:07,400
Speaker 12: committing a crime in the streets, even if it is

1018
00:57:07,680 --> 00:57:11,440
Speaker 12: quote unquote shoplifting, the fact is they are going on

1019
00:57:11,760 --> 00:57:15,000
Speaker 12: and committing more offenses when they're released back onto the street,

1020
00:57:15,080 --> 00:57:18,560
Speaker 12: and in this case, a violent offense. From everything we've

1021
00:57:18,600 --> 00:57:21,880
Speaker 12: been able to gather so far, this guy was laying

1022
00:57:21,920 --> 00:57:28,440
Speaker 12: in wait, targeted them execution style murder. It is absolutely disgraceful.

1023
00:57:29,640 --> 00:57:32,640
Speaker 1: Let's talk about the policy choices, Congressman, that led to

1024
00:57:32,680 --> 00:57:37,320
Speaker 1: this horrific tragedy. So Joe Biden's administration, of course, flew

1025
00:57:37,320 --> 00:57:41,160
Speaker 1: open the borders and thousands upon thousands of people were

1026
00:57:41,160 --> 00:57:44,240
Speaker 1: coming through every day, hundreds of thousands every month, millions

1027
00:57:44,280 --> 00:57:48,360
Speaker 1: over a four year period. This Medina was one of them.

1028
00:57:48,760 --> 00:57:53,120
Speaker 1: And then, as you point out, he winds up in Chicago, Illinois,

1029
00:57:53,160 --> 00:57:59,320
Speaker 1: a sanctuary city, and the shoplifting charge there. I guess

1030
00:57:59,480 --> 00:58:04,200
Speaker 1: the Biden administration policy was that a shoplifting charge would

1031
00:58:04,200 --> 00:58:08,720
Speaker 1: not be an enforcement priority for ICE, and on top

1032
00:58:08,760 --> 00:58:11,960
Speaker 1: of that Chicago being a sanctuary city, they wouldn't have

1033
00:58:12,000 --> 00:58:16,360
Speaker 1: notified ICE anyway. So all these are policy choices made

1034
00:58:16,400 --> 00:58:20,720
Speaker 1: by Democrats, a Democrat president, Democrat mayors, and local people

1035
00:58:20,960 --> 00:58:25,480
Speaker 1: in Chicago. So that's one set of policy choices. The

1036
00:58:25,520 --> 00:58:28,120
Speaker 1: other set here is you brought up Lake and Riley

1037
00:58:28,160 --> 00:58:30,440
Speaker 1: and the Lake and Riley Act that was passed by

1038
00:58:30,640 --> 00:58:34,400
Speaker 1: Republicans that didn't pass until twenty twenty five. Had this

1039
00:58:34,520 --> 00:58:38,720
Speaker 1: been in place, this tragedy probably would have been prevented.

1040
00:58:38,760 --> 00:58:41,880
Speaker 1: It's this story is so terrible, correct, but it does

1041
00:58:41,960 --> 00:58:45,120
Speaker 1: shine a bright light on the differences between the choices

1042
00:58:45,160 --> 00:58:48,280
Speaker 1: that Democrats make and the choices that Republicans make when

1043
00:58:48,360 --> 00:58:50,440
Speaker 1: it comes to immigration and how to deal with violent

1044
00:58:50,480 --> 00:58:51,720
Speaker 1: people who come to our country.

1045
00:58:53,280 --> 00:58:53,840
Speaker 4: No question.

1046
00:58:53,920 --> 00:58:56,800
Speaker 12: You know, I had somebody arguing with me about the

1047
00:58:56,880 --> 00:59:01,200
Speaker 12: Lake and Riley Act just last week, and how dare

1048
00:59:01,280 --> 00:59:03,960
Speaker 12: I vote for that? This is why I voted for that.

1049
00:59:04,240 --> 00:59:07,280
Speaker 12: This is precisely why I voted for that. Somebody who

1050
00:59:07,400 --> 00:59:11,080
Speaker 12: is coming into this country illegally, released into the United

1051
00:59:11,120 --> 00:59:17,240
Speaker 12: States by Joe Biden, committing a crime in a sanctuary jurisdiction,

1052
00:59:17,520 --> 00:59:20,720
Speaker 12: released back out onto the street only to murder an

1053
00:59:20,800 --> 00:59:24,280
Speaker 12: innocent young American who had her whole life in front

1054
00:59:24,280 --> 00:59:27,280
Speaker 12: of her. It should outrage everyone to their core. And

1055
00:59:27,320 --> 00:59:29,640
Speaker 12: as a parent, as a father of two young daughters,

1056
00:59:31,120 --> 00:59:33,040
Speaker 12: these are the things that keep you up at night.

1057
00:59:33,120 --> 00:59:36,480
Speaker 12: And I can only imagine what Tom and Jess and

1058
00:59:36,520 --> 00:59:40,880
Speaker 12: their family are dealing with right now. The pain, the grief,

1059
00:59:41,240 --> 00:59:46,400
Speaker 12: the heartache, and just to know that this was preventable,

1060
00:59:46,640 --> 00:59:51,280
Speaker 12: that this was avoidable. This is why I'm against sanctuary jurisdictions.

1061
00:59:51,520 --> 00:59:55,000
Speaker 12: This is why I'm against disastrous policies like cashless bail

1062
00:59:55,320 --> 00:59:58,440
Speaker 12: that released criminals back out onto the streets only to

1063
00:59:58,520 --> 01:00:02,720
Speaker 12: commit more act This is why we fought to secure

1064
01:00:02,760 --> 01:00:05,760
Speaker 12: the border so that these types of individuals are not

1065
01:00:05,880 --> 01:00:07,240
Speaker 12: released into our country.

1066
01:00:08,880 --> 01:00:12,960
Speaker 1: And what's ridiculous is you see the media falling into

1067
01:00:12,960 --> 01:00:17,640
Speaker 1: the same old patterns. A Chicago Tribune failing to recognize

1068
01:00:17,640 --> 01:00:21,320
Speaker 1: this person and its headlines as an illegal alien. And

1069
01:00:21,360 --> 01:00:23,960
Speaker 1: you also see the Democrats now, I think, in an

1070
01:00:24,040 --> 01:00:26,760
Speaker 1: uncomfortable position having to explain. You know, they've got the

1071
01:00:26,760 --> 01:00:31,080
Speaker 1: Department of Homeland Security closed right now because they don't

1072
01:00:31,080 --> 01:00:34,040
Speaker 1: want any immigration enforcement in our country. That's the reason

1073
01:00:34,080 --> 01:00:37,160
Speaker 1: they have shut it down. And now we have another

1074
01:00:37,200 --> 01:00:42,120
Speaker 1: situation where they're defending their idea that this madonna who

1075
01:00:42,160 --> 01:00:44,680
Speaker 1: came in and killed this young woman, this is the

1076
01:00:44,760 --> 01:00:47,000
Speaker 1: kind of person that they want in the country. This

1077
01:00:47,160 --> 01:00:48,840
Speaker 1: is the kind of person that once they get here,

1078
01:00:48,880 --> 01:00:50,840
Speaker 1: they want to keep in the country. This is the

1079
01:00:50,920 --> 01:00:53,520
Speaker 1: kind of person that most of them would say should

1080
01:00:53,520 --> 01:00:57,640
Speaker 1: not be deported. There are quote neighbor, they are our friends,

1081
01:00:57,720 --> 01:01:01,040
Speaker 1: they are part of our community. That's how they describe

1082
01:01:01,680 --> 01:01:04,440
Speaker 1: these illegal aliens. And now you, Congressman Lawler, have a

1083
01:01:04,480 --> 01:01:08,880
Speaker 1: family in your very district dealing with the tragic consequences

1084
01:01:09,280 --> 01:01:13,120
Speaker 1: of this worldview. I just hope American voters wake up

1085
01:01:13,120 --> 01:01:16,240
Speaker 1: to this before November, because if we go back to Democrats,

1086
01:01:16,640 --> 01:01:17,880
Speaker 1: this is what we're going to get again.

1087
01:01:17,920 --> 01:01:20,720
Speaker 4: It's awful, no question.

1088
01:01:20,760 --> 01:01:23,880
Speaker 12: I mean the fact that they continue to keep the

1089
01:01:23,960 --> 01:01:28,800
Speaker 12: Department of Homeland Security shut down. You know, Americans obviously

1090
01:01:29,000 --> 01:01:34,040
Speaker 12: are are being impacted by TSA agents not being paid

1091
01:01:34,320 --> 01:01:37,520
Speaker 12: by the Democrats decision to keep the department shut down.

1092
01:01:38,440 --> 01:01:41,560
Speaker 12: You have you know, Democrats in my district actually held

1093
01:01:41,560 --> 01:01:45,680
Speaker 12: a rally yesterday in the neighboring town to Yorktown where

1094
01:01:45,680 --> 01:01:49,600
Speaker 12: this family is from, in the town of somers protesting

1095
01:01:49,760 --> 01:01:52,919
Speaker 12: Ice and they don't even make a mention of this

1096
01:01:53,320 --> 01:01:57,040
Speaker 12: poor girl, Sheridan Gorman and her family, not even a

1097
01:01:57,160 --> 01:02:01,240
Speaker 12: mention to keep them in their prayers. It's disgraceful what

1098
01:02:01,400 --> 01:02:04,440
Speaker 12: is happening. And I think Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffrey

1099
01:02:04,480 --> 01:02:06,919
Speaker 12: should be ashamed of themselves that they've allowed the far

1100
01:02:07,000 --> 01:02:13,560
Speaker 12: left extremists to dictate the policies that this country is

1101
01:02:14,040 --> 01:02:19,200
Speaker 12: governed under. It is absolutely absurd that they have kept

1102
01:02:19,200 --> 01:02:22,920
Speaker 12: this department shut down for over forty days, not paying

1103
01:02:22,920 --> 01:02:25,760
Speaker 12: our TSA agents, not paying the Coastguard, not paying the

1104
01:02:25,800 --> 01:02:30,040
Speaker 12: Secret Service, not paying FEMA at a time with a

1105
01:02:30,080 --> 01:02:33,360
Speaker 12: heightened threat environment, given the situation in the Middle East

1106
01:02:34,080 --> 01:02:37,880
Speaker 12: and directly impacting Americans all across the country.

1107
01:02:39,240 --> 01:02:42,640
Speaker 1: Mike, it's interesting to me that the democratic political strategy

1108
01:02:42,680 --> 01:02:46,840
Speaker 1: here appears to be let's just inflict as much pain

1109
01:02:47,120 --> 01:02:51,240
Speaker 1: and chaos on the American people as we can and

1110
01:02:51,240 --> 01:02:53,480
Speaker 1: then look them in the eye with a straight face

1111
01:02:53,560 --> 01:02:57,280
Speaker 1: and say, well, g whiz, we don't know why there's

1112
01:02:57,320 --> 01:03:00,000
Speaker 1: so much chaos. We don't know why people are getting more,

1113
01:03:00,240 --> 01:03:03,160
Speaker 1: we don't know why the airports are so terrible. Guess

1114
01:03:03,160 --> 01:03:07,480
Speaker 1: it must be Trump. Guess it must be the Republicans shrug.

1115
01:03:08,160 --> 01:03:10,880
Speaker 1: That is the political strategy. It seems to me they

1116
01:03:10,920 --> 01:03:13,120
Speaker 1: don't care how long your line is. They don't care

1117
01:03:13,160 --> 01:03:16,720
Speaker 1: how many people get murdered by illegal aliens. They only

1118
01:03:16,800 --> 01:03:20,160
Speaker 1: care if they are able to turn this chaos into

1119
01:03:20,200 --> 01:03:26,160
Speaker 1: political advantage. It is the most cynical, despicable strategy you

1120
01:03:26,160 --> 01:03:28,600
Speaker 1: could possibly imagine. I don't know how you I mean,

1121
01:03:28,640 --> 01:03:30,360
Speaker 1: I don't know how you debate with people. This is

1122
01:03:30,400 --> 01:03:33,000
Speaker 1: not good faith governing at all.

1123
01:03:33,440 --> 01:03:36,440
Speaker 12: It's certainly not good faith. But it's even worse than that, Scott.

1124
01:03:36,920 --> 01:03:40,520
Speaker 12: They're only doing this because they're petrified of losing their primaries.

1125
01:03:41,000 --> 01:03:45,560
Speaker 12: They're petrified of being taken out by the left in

1126
01:03:46,080 --> 01:03:49,080
Speaker 12: primaries this year and in twenty twenty eight, and so

1127
01:03:49,160 --> 01:03:54,040
Speaker 12: they have capitulated to these extremists. I mean, the fact

1128
01:03:54,160 --> 01:03:56,760
Speaker 12: is what happened in Minneapolis was tragic, but it was

1129
01:03:56,960 --> 01:04:01,760
Speaker 12: entirely avoidable had Democrat sanctuary city policies not being been

1130
01:04:01,880 --> 01:04:05,360
Speaker 12: enacted and the local police department not been allowed to

1131
01:04:05,480 --> 01:04:08,760
Speaker 12: cooperate with ICE for the purpose of crowd control and

1132
01:04:08,840 --> 01:04:13,880
Speaker 12: traffic control. And here their policies are directly responsible like

1133
01:04:13,960 --> 01:04:17,000
Speaker 12: they were for Lake and Riley's death. Their policies are

1134
01:04:17,040 --> 01:04:21,000
Speaker 12: directly responsible for the death of this young girl, Sheridan Gorman,

1135
01:04:21,520 --> 01:04:25,320
Speaker 12: because they allowed these people into the country illegally, they

1136
01:04:25,360 --> 01:04:29,280
Speaker 12: were arrested for committing crimes, they released them under these

1137
01:04:29,480 --> 01:04:34,400
Speaker 12: cashless bailed disasters. They would not cooperate with ICE, they

1138
01:04:34,480 --> 01:04:38,480
Speaker 12: would not honor detainer requests. These are the reasons why

1139
01:04:38,560 --> 01:04:41,160
Speaker 12: we continue to see violence. And to your point, the

1140
01:04:41,200 --> 01:04:44,800
Speaker 12: Democrats like Chuck Schumer and King Jeffreys are all too

1141
01:04:44,920 --> 01:04:47,480
Speaker 12: happy to see the chaos because they think they can

1142
01:04:47,560 --> 01:04:50,840
Speaker 12: just blame it on Donald Trump. That is their whole policy,

1143
01:04:50,880 --> 01:04:54,840
Speaker 12: that's their whole campaign is we hate Trump, Orange Man bad.

1144
01:04:55,200 --> 01:04:59,200
Speaker 12: They offer nothing to the American people except this type

1145
01:04:59,200 --> 01:05:02,439
Speaker 12: of insan that we're seeing in our streets. A young

1146
01:05:02,520 --> 01:05:07,120
Speaker 12: girl killed because of these disastrous policies. That's why we

1147
01:05:07,200 --> 01:05:08,920
Speaker 12: set the Lake and Riley Act.

1148
01:05:09,880 --> 01:05:12,360
Speaker 1: Congressman Michae Lawler is our guest here. We got about

1149
01:05:12,400 --> 01:05:15,240
Speaker 1: thirty seconds, Mike, I know you're up there in New York,

1150
01:05:15,320 --> 01:05:19,560
Speaker 1: and we had this tragedy at LaGuardia Airport overnight, a

1151
01:05:19,600 --> 01:05:23,200
Speaker 1: firetruck colliding on the ground with a plane, an Air

1152
01:05:23,280 --> 01:05:27,280
Speaker 1: Canada plane, two pilots dead, just wondering at this hour

1153
01:05:27,840 --> 01:05:30,440
Speaker 1: is LaGuardia open. I'm not certain it's back open yet

1154
01:05:30,520 --> 01:05:33,720
Speaker 1: or not into any comment anything you know about this

1155
01:05:34,400 --> 01:05:37,120
Speaker 1: terrible situation at LGA.

1156
01:05:37,240 --> 01:05:40,120
Speaker 12: Well, it's obviously it's a terrible tragedy. I watched the

1157
01:05:40,200 --> 01:05:43,320
Speaker 12: video just a little while ago and obviously heard the

1158
01:05:43,960 --> 01:05:48,240
Speaker 12: audio of the air traffic controllers trying to stop the

1159
01:05:50,560 --> 01:05:54,280
Speaker 12: situation from happening, and it just obviously needs to be

1160
01:05:54,280 --> 01:05:58,720
Speaker 12: fully investigated so we learn more details. LaGuardia was supposed

1161
01:05:58,720 --> 01:06:01,040
Speaker 12: to open around two o'clock. I'm not sure if that

1162
01:06:01,280 --> 01:06:04,920
Speaker 12: did in fact happen yet, but you know, this is

1163
01:06:05,000 --> 01:06:08,840
Speaker 12: just a tragic situation. You know, two pilots lost. Our

1164
01:06:08,880 --> 01:06:11,440
Speaker 12: hearts break for their families, and obviously a lot of

1165
01:06:11,440 --> 01:06:14,160
Speaker 12: people were injured on the flight.

1166
01:06:15,400 --> 01:06:18,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, another terrible situation at airport on a day when

1167
01:06:18,840 --> 01:06:22,200
Speaker 1: we can ill afford more chaos at the airports. Mike Lawler,

1168
01:06:22,240 --> 01:06:25,040
Speaker 1: Congressman from New York, thanks for joining us, and please

1169
01:06:25,560 --> 01:06:29,320
Speaker 1: send our hearts and our prayers to the family of

1170
01:06:29,920 --> 01:06:32,360
Speaker 1: shared And that is a terrible tragedy, and I know

1171
01:06:32,400 --> 01:06:34,840
Speaker 1: you'll be talking to them soon. By the way, Operation

1172
01:06:34,960 --> 01:06:38,240
Speaker 1: Epic Fury is raging on and that has consequences for

1173
01:06:38,240 --> 01:06:41,080
Speaker 1: people who live in the Holy Land in Israel. They're

1174
01:06:41,120 --> 01:06:43,680
Speaker 1: having to go to bomb shelters under constant rocket and

1175
01:06:43,720 --> 01:06:47,320
Speaker 1: missile attack from Iran. And the people who stand up

1176
01:06:47,400 --> 01:06:51,440
Speaker 1: for those most vulnerable, the sick, the elderly, families and children.

1177
01:06:51,520 --> 01:06:55,440
Speaker 1: It is the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews, the IFCJ,

1178
01:06:55,680 --> 01:06:58,439
Speaker 1: the Fellowship we call it, and we want to join

1179
01:06:58,520 --> 01:07:01,480
Speaker 1: with them in praying for the protection of Israel, her

1180
01:07:01,520 --> 01:07:04,520
Speaker 1: people and the brave American and Israeli troops who are

1181
01:07:04,520 --> 01:07:07,000
Speaker 1: putting their lives on the line and fighting for freedom.

1182
01:07:07,080 --> 01:07:09,960
Speaker 1: Join us by standing with Israel in prayer today. Go

1184
01:07:16,680 --> 01:07:20,760
Speaker 1: Interesting story about people from China taking advantage of birthright

1185
01:07:20,840 --> 01:07:22,720
Speaker 1: citizenship in the US. You don't want to miss it

1186
01:07:22,760 --> 01:07:23,959
Speaker 1: here on the Scott Jennings Show.

01:07:27,920 --> 01:07:31,440
Speaker 4: He's here with us. It's the Scott Jennings Show.

Speaker 1: And we'll be back on CNN tonight ten o'clock Eastern

1191

1192
01:07:40,360 --> 01:07:42,520
Speaker 1: Casey Hunt will be in for Abby, but we'll be

1193
01:07:42,560 --> 01:07:46,080
Speaker 1: debating nonetheless, So check us out at the Roundtable tonight

1194
01:07:46,120 --> 01:07:49,960
Speaker 1: on CNN ten o'clock Eastern home stretch here of this show,

1195
01:07:50,240 --> 01:07:53,920
Speaker 1: and we've got to talk about this issue of birth

1196
01:07:54,200 --> 01:07:58,240
Speaker 1: tourism and its impact on America. If I told you

1197
01:07:58,400 --> 01:08:02,600
Speaker 1: that the Northern Marionna Islands, a US territory, had numerous

1198
01:08:02,760 --> 01:08:06,240
Speaker 1: birth clinics where people could fly in, have a kid,

1199
01:08:06,760 --> 01:08:11,000
Speaker 1: and have that kid automatically become a US citizen, how

1200
01:08:11,000 --> 01:08:12,880
Speaker 1: many people do you think would do that?

1201
01:08:12,960 --> 01:08:13,120
Speaker 10: Well?

1202
01:08:13,160 --> 01:08:16,840
Speaker 1: According to our next guest, New York Times bestselling author

1203
01:08:16,840 --> 01:08:20,400
Speaker 1: and New York Post senior reporter Chadwick More, it's a lot,

1204
01:08:20,439 --> 01:08:25,120
Speaker 1: maybe one and a half million Chinese people alone being

1205
01:08:25,240 --> 01:08:28,519
Speaker 1: born through this method. Chadwick, thanks for joining us on

1206
01:08:28,560 --> 01:08:30,800
Speaker 1: the Scott Jennings Show. You've got to I saw this

1207
01:08:30,840 --> 01:08:32,960
Speaker 1: in the New York Post last week. I couldn't believe

1208
01:08:33,000 --> 01:08:34,280
Speaker 1: it's tell us about this story.

1209
01:08:35,640 --> 01:08:39,240
Speaker 7: Yeah, thanks Scott. So the North Mariana Islands, it's got

1210
01:08:39,520 --> 01:08:41,439
Speaker 7: at one point. So this is all thanks to an

1211
01:08:41,439 --> 01:08:45,480
Speaker 7: Obama era rule in which Obama said that Chinese citizens

1212
01:08:45,520 --> 01:08:48,280
Speaker 7: no longer needed a visa to travel these islands. They

1213
01:08:48,280 --> 01:08:51,799
Speaker 7: could stay up to forty five days, no questions asked.

1214
01:08:52,000 --> 01:08:55,960
Speaker 7: So that opened the plootgates to birth tourism where Chinese women,

1215
01:08:56,400 --> 01:08:59,599
Speaker 7: mostly wealthy, fly to the islands, they stay a month,

1216
01:09:00,080 --> 01:09:02,920
Speaker 7: maybe longer, have a baby, and the baby is instantly American.

1217
01:09:03,240 --> 01:09:07,360
Speaker 7: There are over one thousand companies based in China that

1218
01:09:08,840 --> 01:09:10,880
Speaker 7: just to birth tourism. They're very proud about it. Have

1219
01:09:10,960 --> 01:09:13,719
Speaker 7: your American baby with us, will help you do all

1220
01:09:13,800 --> 01:09:17,160
Speaker 7: the we'll range it all for you. And it's estimated

1221
01:09:17,160 --> 01:09:19,639
Speaker 7: that there's about seven hundred thousand to one point five

1222
01:09:19,720 --> 01:09:24,360
Speaker 7: million so called American babies being raised in China right now.

1223
01:09:24,760 --> 01:09:25,280
Speaker 4: A lot of.

1224
01:09:25,240 --> 01:09:29,280
Speaker 7: Them getting ready this decade to reach voting age now

1225
01:09:29,320 --> 01:09:31,400
Speaker 7: of course, of eighteen, if they get a residency in

1226
01:09:31,400 --> 01:09:33,320
Speaker 7: the US, they can vote in the US, and at

1227
01:09:33,360 --> 01:09:37,120
Speaker 7: twenty one they can begin bringing in friends and excuse me,

1228
01:09:37,160 --> 01:09:41,200
Speaker 7: family members, close family members through sponsoring them with green cards,

1229
01:09:41,200 --> 01:09:43,920
Speaker 7: what we call chain migration. So this is a huge

1230
01:09:43,920 --> 01:09:47,479
Speaker 7: issue that is coming up to the Supreme Court actually

1231
01:09:47,520 --> 01:09:52,280
Speaker 7: April first, oral arguments about birthright citizenship. And that's how

1232
01:09:52,360 --> 01:09:55,360
Speaker 7: these people are able to do this through an interpretation

1233
01:09:55,479 --> 01:09:58,640
Speaker 7: of a fourteenth Amendment that says any person no matter what,

1234
01:09:58,840 --> 01:10:02,519
Speaker 7: who's born on US soil, and the Northern Marianna Islands

1235
01:10:02,520 --> 01:10:06,480
Speaker 7: our US territory get automatic instant American citizenship.

1236
01:10:07,520 --> 01:10:10,559
Speaker 1: So you're saying that during the Obama administration they made

1237
01:10:10,600 --> 01:10:14,520
Speaker 1: it easier for Chinese nationals to come to US territory.

1238
01:10:15,120 --> 01:10:17,880
Speaker 1: They immediately started taking advantage of this. Now we have

1239
01:10:18,040 --> 01:10:22,439
Speaker 1: millions of Chinese families with American babies who are now

1240
01:10:22,479 --> 01:10:26,080
Speaker 1: coming of age. Ay, do we have any idea? I

1241
01:10:26,280 --> 01:10:29,519
Speaker 1: saw one and a half million was the number. Is

1242
01:10:29,520 --> 01:10:32,439
Speaker 1: it possible that it's more than that? A? Has the

1243
01:10:32,479 --> 01:10:36,800
Speaker 1: Trump administration moved to change these visa rules? In other words,

1244
01:10:36,840 --> 01:10:38,920
Speaker 1: that we cut this off or is it still going on?

1245
01:10:40,360 --> 01:10:40,519
Speaker 3: Right?

1246
01:10:40,560 --> 01:10:44,200
Speaker 7: So, during Trump's first term, he actually reduced the visa

1247
01:10:44,200 --> 01:10:47,720
Speaker 7: waiver to fourteen days. That slowed down This is the

1248
01:10:47,840 --> 01:10:51,720
Speaker 7: Northern Mariana Island specifically, that slowed it down. At one

1249
01:10:51,720 --> 01:10:53,920
Speaker 7: point there were more Chinese babies born on the island

1250
01:10:53,960 --> 01:10:57,280
Speaker 7: than natives. But it still is at fourteen days. Members

1251
01:10:57,320 --> 01:11:02,200
Speaker 7: of Congress have brought this issue earlier this month about

1252
01:11:02,240 --> 01:11:03,599
Speaker 7: ending the visa waiver entirely.

1253
01:11:03,840 --> 01:11:04,000
Speaker 12: Now.

1254
01:11:04,240 --> 01:11:07,200
Speaker 7: The case it's going before the Supreme Court on April first,

1255
01:11:07,479 --> 01:11:10,360
Speaker 7: is because of a Trump executive order which wanted to

1256
01:11:10,560 --> 01:11:14,720
Speaker 7: end birthright citizenships for illegals and for tourists. There was

1257
01:11:16,000 --> 01:11:19,040
Speaker 7: usual story one federal judge or whatever who said you

1258
01:11:19,080 --> 01:11:21,080
Speaker 7: can't do this as the president. And now it's gone

1259
01:11:21,120 --> 01:11:23,160
Speaker 7: all the way. It's going to the Supreme Court. The

1260
01:11:23,160 --> 01:11:25,800
Speaker 7: Supreme Court initially did not want to tackle this issue

1261
01:11:25,840 --> 01:11:28,679
Speaker 7: of how to interpret the Fourteenth Amendment, but they're going

1262
01:11:28,720 --> 01:11:30,760
Speaker 7: to be forced to. So it's going to be a

1263
01:11:30,840 --> 01:11:34,519
Speaker 7: super interesting case to watch to see. If the Fourteenth Amendment,

1264
01:11:34,560 --> 01:11:36,960
Speaker 7: of course, was passed in the eighteen sixties, it was

1265
01:11:37,000 --> 01:11:41,719
Speaker 7: only intended to give newly freed slaves, people of African

1266
01:11:41,720 --> 01:11:45,240
Speaker 7: descendant US citizenship and their children, but it has since

1267
01:11:45,280 --> 01:11:48,240
Speaker 7: been interpreted to being basically anyone who's on the United

1268
01:11:48,240 --> 01:11:50,840
Speaker 7: State in the United States, including tourists from China to

1269
01:11:50,960 --> 01:11:54,559
Speaker 7: fly in for weekends to Pacific Island territory, give birth,

1270
01:11:54,600 --> 01:11:57,240
Speaker 7: and go home. It's been interpreted to say that those

1271
01:11:57,360 --> 01:11:59,080
Speaker 7: children are American citizens.

1272
01:12:00,120 --> 01:12:02,760
Speaker 1: Most often discuss this or debate this issue as it

1273
01:12:02,800 --> 01:12:06,200
Speaker 1: relates to illegal immigrants coming up over the southern border.

1274
01:12:06,240 --> 01:12:08,799
Speaker 1: They have children here and so on. But it strikes

1275
01:12:08,840 --> 01:12:11,559
Speaker 1: me that just as big or maybe a bigger issue

1276
01:12:12,080 --> 01:12:14,559
Speaker 1: or all these Chinese nationals who are taking advantage of

1277
01:12:14,600 --> 01:12:17,280
Speaker 1: us on this birthright citizenship, and indeed we'll be watching

1278
