1
00:00:10,160 --> 00:00:14,319
Speaker 1: Bive from the Liberty University Studio in Memphis, Tennessee. It's

2
00:00:14,360 --> 00:00:23,280
Speaker 1: common sense conservative commentary from Todd starts Samaritan.

3
00:00:27,200 --> 00:00:31,159
Speaker 2: All right, well, look, I don't like to say I

4
00:00:31,280 --> 00:00:35,120
Speaker 2: told you so, but I told you so. Hello, everybody,

5
00:00:35,280 --> 00:00:39,440
Speaker 2: Welcome to the Todd Stearns Radio Program. We are so

6
00:00:39,680 --> 00:00:42,720
Speaker 2: honored that you have joined us noon to three Eastern

7
00:00:43,000 --> 00:00:48,760
Speaker 2: on this radio station and this radio network. Wow. Over

8
00:00:48,920 --> 00:00:52,600
Speaker 2: one hundred radio stations now carry the Todd Sterns Show,

9
00:00:52,720 --> 00:00:55,200
Speaker 2: and we are honored to have all of you on board.

10
00:00:55,680 --> 00:00:57,400
Speaker 2: By the way, I want you to write down our

11
00:00:57,400 --> 00:00:59,640
Speaker 2: telephone number. You will need this if you want to

12
00:01:00,040 --> 00:01:03,760
Speaker 2: be in on the conversation. Two day, nine oh one

13
00:01:03,920 --> 00:01:07,120
Speaker 2: two six zero five nine two six. That's nine oh

14
00:01:07,160 --> 00:01:13,120
Speaker 2: one two six zero five to nine two six, now,

15
00:01:15,080 --> 00:01:19,959
Speaker 2: ladies and gentlemen. Over the weekend, there were new developments

16
00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:24,720
Speaker 2: in Minneapolis. And it's an ugly situation, no doubt about it.

17
00:01:24,840 --> 00:01:28,199
Speaker 2: No which way you look at this thing, it's just ugly.

18
00:01:28,959 --> 00:01:33,200
Speaker 2: And there are a lot of people that are getting nervous.

19
00:01:33,720 --> 00:01:37,039
Speaker 2: There are a good many Republicans that are now beginning

20
00:01:37,080 --> 00:01:43,319
Speaker 2: to distance themselves from President Trump and the administration over

21
00:01:43,360 --> 00:01:48,840
Speaker 2: the handling of this situation in Minneapolis, Minnesota now for weeks,

22
00:01:49,320 --> 00:01:52,880
Speaker 2: For weeks, I have been warning the administration that they

23
00:01:52,880 --> 00:01:56,400
Speaker 2: were in danger of losing the narrative, that something was

24
00:01:57,640 --> 00:02:04,520
Speaker 2: off in the way they were addressing the issues at hand. Now,

25
00:02:04,600 --> 00:02:08,880
Speaker 2: keep in mind that borders are Tom Holman originally said

26
00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:12,800
Speaker 2: that most of the emphasis was going to be on

27
00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:19,920
Speaker 2: rounding up very bad, very dangerous criminals, the most dangerous

28
00:02:20,080 --> 00:02:22,680
Speaker 2: of the illegals. Those are the folks that they're going

29
00:02:22,720 --> 00:02:24,799
Speaker 2: to be going after. First, they weren't going to be

30
00:02:24,840 --> 00:02:28,520
Speaker 2: going after you know, mom and Pop, Jose and Consuela

31
00:02:28,880 --> 00:02:32,639
Speaker 2: who you know worked construction and clean up the holiday inn.

32
00:02:33,560 --> 00:02:37,680
Speaker 2: That clearly has not been the case. And over the

33
00:02:37,720 --> 00:02:40,880
Speaker 2: past several months now, Tom Holman has been at odds

34
00:02:41,480 --> 00:02:45,440
Speaker 2: with the Department of Homeland Security Christy Nome and her

35
00:02:46,160 --> 00:02:51,880
Speaker 2: friend Corey Lewandowski running things there and Tom Holman has

36
00:02:51,919 --> 00:02:57,640
Speaker 2: basically been just shoved aside. Well, that has changed because

37
00:02:57,680 --> 00:03:01,960
Speaker 2: now the President's coming in and the President Trump early

38
00:03:02,080 --> 00:03:05,880
Speaker 2: early early announced that Tom Homan would be on his

39
00:03:06,040 --> 00:03:10,560
Speaker 2: way to Minneapolis to clean up this mess. And it

40
00:03:10,639 --> 00:03:13,919
Speaker 2: is a mess, and it's a mess on many levels.

41
00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:18,160
Speaker 2: But the question now and you will start hearing more.

42
00:03:18,200 --> 00:03:22,320
Speaker 2: I think we've got what six six Republican senators who

43
00:03:22,400 --> 00:03:27,200
Speaker 2: are now demanding investigations into what happened in Minneapolis. I

44
00:03:27,200 --> 00:03:29,520
Speaker 2: got no problem with that. I think, you know, anytime

45
00:03:29,639 --> 00:03:31,880
Speaker 2: somebody gets shot and killed, I think there ought to

46
00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:36,680
Speaker 2: be an investigation. But what concerns me here is that

47
00:03:36,720 --> 00:03:40,120
Speaker 2: even members of the Republican Party of the Oklahoma governor,

48
00:03:40,160 --> 00:03:44,000
Speaker 2: you folks out of Oklahoma, a governor a stit out

49
00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:48,000
Speaker 2: there saying that he's got issues with the way things

50
00:03:48,040 --> 00:03:50,920
Speaker 2: went down yesterday. Well, I want to say something about

51
00:03:50,960 --> 00:03:53,960
Speaker 2: the polace. I've got a lot to say about this today.

52
00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:57,200
Speaker 2: But it just seems to me that when you're in

53
00:03:57,280 --> 00:04:01,640
Speaker 2: law enforcement, you have literally a split second to make decisions.

54
00:04:02,160 --> 00:04:04,680
Speaker 2: And the fact of the matter is this male nurse

55
00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:08,560
Speaker 2: by the name of Alex, pretty as tragic of a

56
00:04:08,600 --> 00:04:12,880
Speaker 2: situation as this is, he got what he was asking for.

57
00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:16,359
Speaker 2: And I know that's look, that's a little bit of

58
00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:19,599
Speaker 2: tough love this morning, but the reality is this guy

59
00:04:19,839 --> 00:04:22,960
Speaker 2: went there armed with a weapon and tried to stop

60
00:04:23,040 --> 00:04:27,000
Speaker 2: law enforcement from doing their jobs. It's really that simple.

61
00:04:27,560 --> 00:04:33,279
Speaker 2: That's that's what happened. And when in a situation like

62
00:04:33,320 --> 00:04:37,200
Speaker 2: that where the guy was resisting arrest and all of

63
00:04:37,240 --> 00:04:40,520
Speaker 2: a sudden, you've got a gun involved. Yeah, I am

64
00:04:40,560 --> 00:04:44,120
Speaker 2: not surprised this went the way it did. My question

65
00:04:44,279 --> 00:04:49,000
Speaker 2: is would you have rather had dead federal agents? And

66
00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:52,080
Speaker 2: the answer on the left is yes, because that's what

67
00:04:52,120 --> 00:04:57,240
Speaker 2: they want. They actually consider these federal agents to be stormtroopers,

68
00:04:57,240 --> 00:04:59,680
Speaker 2: to be Nazis. And we're hearing this sort of language

69
00:04:59,680 --> 00:05:01,560
Speaker 2: coming out out of the governor's mansion, out of the

70
00:05:01,600 --> 00:05:04,919
Speaker 2: lieutenant governor's mansion, and now we know that this is

71
00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:09,320
Speaker 2: not some sort of an organic grassroots protest out there,

72
00:05:09,640 --> 00:05:14,600
Speaker 2: that what's really going on is that we are we

73
00:05:14,640 --> 00:05:21,920
Speaker 2: are watching a very well organized, well funded, well coordinated militant,

74
00:05:21,960 --> 00:05:26,440
Speaker 2: really militia that is waging war against the Trump administration.

75
00:05:26,640 --> 00:05:29,799
Speaker 2: I mean, that's what's going on. So anyway, the Washington

76
00:05:30,200 --> 00:05:35,880
Speaker 2: the Wall Street Journal rather has an editorial, the entire

77
00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:39,279
Speaker 2: editorial board, and whenever the Wall Street Journal weighs in,

78
00:05:39,680 --> 00:05:46,400
Speaker 2: everybody gets squirrely. But I'm just curious here because something's

79
00:05:46,440 --> 00:05:49,600
Speaker 2: about to happen, and I'm just curious to hear your

80
00:05:49,640 --> 00:05:53,640
Speaker 2: thoughts on this. Do you believe that President Trump should

81
00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:58,960
Speaker 2: pause what's happening in Minneapolis right now, because that's what

82
00:05:59,040 --> 00:06:01,840
Speaker 2: the Wall Street Journal at datorial board wants the president

83
00:06:01,920 --> 00:06:05,400
Speaker 2: to do. I'm going to read this to you for

84
00:06:05,440 --> 00:06:08,320
Speaker 2: those of you who do not subscribe to the Wall

85
00:06:08,320 --> 00:06:13,200
Speaker 2: Street Journal, they said. When Donald Trump visited the Journal

86
00:06:13,240 --> 00:06:16,320
Speaker 2: in twenty twenty four, he was asked how he'd implement

87
00:06:16,440 --> 00:06:20,799
Speaker 2: his mass deportation policy to avoid appearing to be cruel

88
00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:26,039
Speaker 2: and inviting a political backlash. His answer was surprisingly nuanced.

89
00:06:26,279 --> 00:06:29,000
Speaker 2: He said he had to deport illegal migrants because we

90
00:06:29,040 --> 00:06:32,000
Speaker 2: can't handle these people coming in right now. But the

91
00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:35,320
Speaker 2: interest from the heart, Yes, something's got to be done.

92
00:06:35,480 --> 00:06:38,080
Speaker 2: I'm not going to do that. Separate families. I can't

93
00:06:38,080 --> 00:06:40,560
Speaker 2: do that. Okay, thank you, Really good question. I mean,

94
00:06:40,800 --> 00:06:42,880
Speaker 2: there's some human questions that get in the way of

95
00:06:42,920 --> 00:06:45,760
Speaker 2: being perfect, and we have to have the heart too.

96
00:06:47,240 --> 00:06:47,400
Speaker 3: Well.

97
00:06:47,440 --> 00:06:51,680
Speaker 2: Fifteen minutes fifteen months later, reading from the editorial board

98
00:06:51,960 --> 00:06:56,560
Speaker 2: column fifteen months later, there isn't much heart in immigration

99
00:06:56,680 --> 00:07:00,440
Speaker 2: and customs enforcement. The Saturday shooting of alex as he

100
00:07:00,560 --> 00:07:03,520
Speaker 2: lay on the ground surrounded by Ice agents is the

101
00:07:03,560 --> 00:07:06,560
Speaker 2: worst incident to date and what is becoming a moral

102
00:07:06,680 --> 00:07:10,400
Speaker 2: and political debacle for the Trump presidency. Now, let me

103
00:07:10,400 --> 00:07:13,400
Speaker 2: stop here for a moment. Yeah, if the reason why

104
00:07:13,440 --> 00:07:15,480
Speaker 2: he was on the ground is he was fighting with

105
00:07:15,600 --> 00:07:18,920
Speaker 2: ICE agents. And it just seems to me, when you're

106
00:07:18,920 --> 00:07:21,480
Speaker 2: being taken into custody, you do what the police tell you.

107
00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:24,040
Speaker 2: I mean, you don't have to, but it just seems

108
00:07:24,080 --> 00:07:27,160
Speaker 2: to me that you have to do what law enforcement

109
00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:31,480
Speaker 2: is telling you to do. Do you believe though, that

110
00:07:31,560 --> 00:07:34,400
Speaker 2: this is becoming a moral and political debacle for the

111
00:07:34,400 --> 00:07:38,480
Speaker 2: Trump presidency? Well, Tom, what about that five year old boy,

112
00:07:38,520 --> 00:07:43,400
Speaker 2: the precious five year old boy that was taken into custody? Yeah,

113
00:07:43,440 --> 00:07:49,720
Speaker 2: because the boy's illegal alien father abandoned him. What were

114
00:07:49,720 --> 00:07:52,960
Speaker 2: the Ice agents supposed to do, ladies and gentlemen, what

115
00:07:52,960 --> 00:07:56,360
Speaker 2: were they supposed to do? Now, I'm going to tell

116
00:07:56,360 --> 00:07:59,440
Speaker 2: you what I think is about to happen. I think

117
00:07:59,480 --> 00:08:02,040
Speaker 2: that we are are about to put a pause on

118
00:08:02,120 --> 00:08:05,200
Speaker 2: the deportation of the illegals. And a lot of this

119
00:08:05,240 --> 00:08:07,440
Speaker 2: has just been a big show for you, ladies and gentlemen.

120
00:08:07,720 --> 00:08:10,840
Speaker 2: And this pains me to say, but it turns out

121
00:08:10,880 --> 00:08:14,240
Speaker 2: that it's Barack Cussin Obama who happened to be the

122
00:08:14,280 --> 00:08:18,440
Speaker 2: most effective president at deporting illegals. But there was none

123
00:08:18,480 --> 00:08:21,080
Speaker 2: of this hell fire and brimstone coming at Obama when

124
00:08:21,080 --> 00:08:23,200
Speaker 2: all this was going down. As a matter of fact,

125
00:08:23,200 --> 00:08:27,080
Speaker 2: nearly sixty people died in the custody of Ice and

126
00:08:27,120 --> 00:08:30,800
Speaker 2: Border Patrol during the Obama administration. Nobody complained about that

127
00:08:30,880 --> 00:08:35,880
Speaker 2: at all, not one bit. So we're going to be

128
00:08:35,960 --> 00:08:40,560
Speaker 2: taking your calls on this because there is about to

129
00:08:40,559 --> 00:08:43,040
Speaker 2: be a change in policy. And I think this is

130
00:08:43,120 --> 00:08:46,880
Speaker 2: the wrong move for President Trump. Here's what should have happened.

131
00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:50,160
Speaker 2: And by the way, let me say this about Pam Bondi,

132
00:08:50,760 --> 00:08:53,400
Speaker 2: Pam Bondy going out there over the weekend and she's

133
00:08:53,480 --> 00:08:56,600
Speaker 2: upset with me yours truly, Pam Bondi, as a matter

134
00:08:56,600 --> 00:09:02,120
Speaker 2: of fact, is coming after me, and I'm okay with

135
00:09:02,200 --> 00:09:06,199
Speaker 2: that because it needed to be sent. Pam Bondi's out

136
00:09:06,240 --> 00:09:10,200
Speaker 2: there on the weekend shows and she's talking about how well,

137
00:09:10,240 --> 00:09:15,560
Speaker 2: I just I sent a strongly worded letter to the

138
00:09:15,600 --> 00:09:22,400
Speaker 2: governor of Minnesota. Okay, Well, what good is that? I mean,

139
00:09:22,400 --> 00:09:24,280
Speaker 2: how many more letters are we going to be sending

140
00:09:24,320 --> 00:09:29,520
Speaker 2: out there? How many more letters do we have to

141
00:09:29,559 --> 00:09:32,360
Speaker 2: send to the governor. That seems to be all the

142
00:09:32,440 --> 00:09:34,840
Speaker 2: Justice Department is good for is sending a strongly worded

143
00:09:34,880 --> 00:09:37,280
Speaker 2: letter and I don't want to get into it today.

144
00:09:37,880 --> 00:09:42,000
Speaker 2: But Epstein still got nothing on that Russia Russia Russia collusions,

145
00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:48,320
Speaker 2: still got nothing on that, the sabotage of President Trump's campaign,

146
00:09:48,400 --> 00:09:51,400
Speaker 2: nothing on that mar A Lago raids, nothing on that.

147
00:09:52,160 --> 00:09:53,760
Speaker 2: So I don't know what they're doing over there. But

148
00:09:53,800 --> 00:09:58,600
Speaker 2: apparently they've got a pretty busy secretarial pool because they're

149
00:09:58,640 --> 00:10:02,640
Speaker 2: just turning out strongly work letters. And I don't know

150
00:10:02,720 --> 00:10:05,440
Speaker 2: if she fed excess thing she did the overnight and

151
00:10:05,480 --> 00:10:07,560
Speaker 2: she paid the extra for the stamps, or if this

152
00:10:07,720 --> 00:10:10,560
Speaker 2: is like snail mail. But I don't think the governor

153
00:10:10,559 --> 00:10:14,319
Speaker 2: got her letter. And even yesterday President Trump coming out

154
00:10:14,360 --> 00:10:16,440
Speaker 2: and saying that they were demanding this, this, and this

155
00:10:16,600 --> 00:10:21,960
Speaker 2: of the of the governor of Minnesota. Who cares. I'm

156
00:10:22,080 --> 00:10:25,400
Speaker 2: tired of the talk, ladies and gentlemen. It is time

157
00:10:25,440 --> 00:10:27,760
Speaker 2: for action, and that's what needs to happen here. But

158
00:10:27,760 --> 00:10:28,959
Speaker 2: I don't think we're going to get it from this

159
00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:32,680
Speaker 2: administration because they're listening to groups like the New York Times,

160
00:10:32,960 --> 00:10:36,200
Speaker 2: the Wall Street Journal, and if you've listened even at

161
00:10:36,280 --> 00:10:40,040
Speaker 2: Fox News Channel, Peter Doosey, Peter Doocey did not even

162
00:10:40,120 --> 00:10:44,040
Speaker 2: have the moral courage or maybe the intellect to actually

163
00:10:44,679 --> 00:10:50,120
Speaker 2: push back. When the guest was talking about how the

164
00:10:50,320 --> 00:10:53,719
Speaker 2: ICE agents had basically kidnapped and obtained this five year

165
00:10:53,720 --> 00:10:56,400
Speaker 2: old It's simply not true. It's a lie. It's just

166
00:10:56,440 --> 00:10:59,679
Speaker 2: a flat out lie. And as a journalist you've got

167
00:10:59,679 --> 00:11:01,720
Speaker 2: to be to call him out. But even the folks

168
00:11:01,800 --> 00:11:06,040
Speaker 2: over at Fox are beginning to go soft on the

169
00:11:06,080 --> 00:11:11,839
Speaker 2: immigration issue. Well, Todd, we just we just can't. We

170
00:11:12,160 --> 00:11:14,920
Speaker 2: don't like all these pictures, all these images. Well, you

171
00:11:14,960 --> 00:11:17,120
Speaker 2: know what we didn't have to have that. All you

172
00:11:17,200 --> 00:11:21,120
Speaker 2: needed to do was send in the strongest force of

173
00:11:21,240 --> 00:11:27,280
Speaker 2: people you could. We're talking thousands of military personnel, round

174
00:11:27,360 --> 00:11:28,920
Speaker 2: up all the bad guys and move on to the

175
00:11:28,960 --> 00:11:33,880
Speaker 2: next city. And to Tom Holman's point, wasn't that that

176
00:11:33,920 --> 00:11:36,560
Speaker 2: what we were supposed to do all along? We weren't supposed

177
00:11:36,600 --> 00:11:41,079
Speaker 2: to be dragging people out of their homes. But that's

178
00:11:41,120 --> 00:11:43,440
Speaker 2: what's going on right now. It's a mess. It's a great,

179
00:11:43,440 --> 00:11:45,920
Speaker 2: big mess, which is why Trump is having to intervene.

180
00:11:45,960 --> 00:11:46,120
Speaker 4: Now.

181
00:11:46,720 --> 00:11:50,680
Speaker 2: I have to tell you, PAMBONDI gotta go. Very nice person,

182
00:11:51,000 --> 00:11:53,880
Speaker 2: not qualified, not capable to do the job. You know

183
00:11:53,920 --> 00:11:57,720
Speaker 2: who else, Christy, No gotta go. I mean the idea

184
00:11:57,800 --> 00:12:00,920
Speaker 2: that some of the language being used here is just

185
00:12:01,160 --> 00:12:04,560
Speaker 2: over the top rhetoric and it is not helping things.

186
00:12:05,920 --> 00:12:08,080
Speaker 2: You have got to go in. You've got to find

187
00:12:08,120 --> 00:12:09,840
Speaker 2: the bad guys and get out of there.

188
00:12:10,200 --> 00:12:10,440
Speaker 5: You know.

189
00:12:10,520 --> 00:12:13,840
Speaker 2: Here's the other issue I have. And again, this is

190
00:12:14,000 --> 00:12:18,160
Speaker 2: very well coordinated. And now we have information and we'll

191
00:12:18,160 --> 00:12:19,760
Speaker 2: get to more of this in just a little bit,

192
00:12:19,840 --> 00:12:23,200
Speaker 2: but for this to set up the conversation, there is

193
00:12:23,240 --> 00:12:26,960
Speaker 2: now information that a lot of these a lot of

194
00:12:27,000 --> 00:12:31,360
Speaker 2: these protests are being coordinated, and that government leaders, including

195
00:12:31,400 --> 00:12:34,160
Speaker 2: the Lieutenant governor of Minnesota, is in on all of this.

196
00:12:34,679 --> 00:12:38,520
Speaker 2: They have license plate scanners. They're able to know exactly

197
00:12:38,559 --> 00:12:41,160
Speaker 2: who you are and where you are at all times.

198
00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:44,960
Speaker 2: This is not some sort of a grassroots get out

199
00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:48,200
Speaker 2: grandma and stand on the street corner and hold a sign.

200
00:12:49,160 --> 00:12:52,160
Speaker 2: This is a very well organized and well funded militia.

201
00:12:53,640 --> 00:12:56,960
Speaker 2: We're at war with somebody, and the administration knows this.

202
00:12:57,080 --> 00:12:58,680
Speaker 2: And if they don't know, what, shame with them. You

203
00:12:58,720 --> 00:13:01,600
Speaker 2: had Cash Betel another, I don't know what the hell

204
00:13:01,679 --> 00:13:05,560
Speaker 2: that guy's doing. Cash Betel's on what Benny Johnson's show?

205
00:13:05,840 --> 00:13:07,680
Speaker 2: And may I just say something here, I'm tired of

206
00:13:07,720 --> 00:13:11,400
Speaker 2: this nonsense. You know what, stop going on the little podcasters,

207
00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:15,199
Speaker 2: stop going on Fox News channel, hold a freaking press conference,

208
00:13:16,600 --> 00:13:19,600
Speaker 2: Actually sit down and take some hard hitting questions for

209
00:13:19,679 --> 00:13:23,439
Speaker 2: a change. But Cash Betel, oh, well, we're investigating, and

210
00:13:23,559 --> 00:13:26,240
Speaker 2: we know we know who's behind this. Well, why haven't

211
00:13:26,240 --> 00:13:30,120
Speaker 2: you arrested them? If you know who's behind it, why

212
00:13:30,160 --> 00:13:34,600
Speaker 2: not arrest them? In the meantime, last night, you've got

213
00:13:34,600 --> 00:13:38,560
Speaker 2: these two federal agents that they were guarding a hotel.

214
00:13:39,520 --> 00:13:42,520
Speaker 2: The mom showed up, beat the living daylights out of

215
00:13:42,559 --> 00:13:48,520
Speaker 2: these guys. Nobody did anything. Nobody did anything. The poor

216
00:13:48,559 --> 00:13:51,640
Speaker 2: guy's blood coming out of there. One poor guy, blood

217
00:13:51,640 --> 00:13:56,480
Speaker 2: coming out of the mouth, his nose, his fingers, blood

218
00:13:56,480 --> 00:14:00,199
Speaker 2: all over the place, and he's saying, where are the police.

219
00:14:00,240 --> 00:14:02,880
Speaker 2: They called for help from the Minneapolis to police demorrow.

220
00:14:02,880 --> 00:14:08,320
Speaker 2: Nobody showed up. Nobody showed up. What does that tell you?

221
00:14:10,640 --> 00:14:12,520
Speaker 2: But here's here's what I think is going to end

222
00:14:12,600 --> 00:14:16,520
Speaker 2: up hampening the administration in the next twenty four to

223
00:14:16,600 --> 00:14:19,480
Speaker 2: forty eight hours. Will say we declare victory. We got

224
00:14:19,520 --> 00:14:21,440
Speaker 2: who we wanted, and now we're going on to the

225
00:14:21,480 --> 00:14:27,080
Speaker 2: next town and we'll all forget about the billions of

226
00:14:27,160 --> 00:14:31,840
Speaker 2: dollars in fraud, the billions of dollars at the Somalis

227
00:14:31,920 --> 00:14:34,720
Speaker 2: or are stealing from the American taxpayer. All of that

00:17:14,119 --> 00:17:17,840
Speaker 2: welcome back, and just a word for our good friends

272
00:17:18,359 --> 00:17:22,480
Speaker 2: that listen to us on our flagship station KWAM and Memphis, Tennessee.

273
00:17:23,160 --> 00:17:26,480
Speaker 2: We are dealing with a lot of ice and snow

274
00:17:26,560 --> 00:17:31,800
Speaker 2: here which could be impacting your radio signal. However, if

275
00:17:31,840 --> 00:17:35,280
Speaker 2: you listen to our stream, go to kwamradio dot com

276
00:17:35,400 --> 00:17:37,480
Speaker 2: or you can download our app, you'll be able to

277
00:17:37,560 --> 00:17:40,359
Speaker 2: listen to it without any interruptions at all. But a

278
00:17:40,359 --> 00:17:43,000
Speaker 2: lot of this stuff is just beyond our what we're

279
00:17:43,040 --> 00:17:46,879
Speaker 2: able to fix because it is well below freezing. I

280
00:17:46,920 --> 00:17:50,280
Speaker 2: think it's like fifteen degrees outside and just tons of ice.

281
00:17:50,359 --> 00:17:53,719
Speaker 2: So our apologies, but there's not much else we can do.

282
00:17:53,800 --> 00:17:56,560
Speaker 2: All right, let's go to the phones. Nine oh one

283
00:17:56,640 --> 00:17:59,960
Speaker 2: two six zero five nine two six. Let's say hello

284
00:18:00,160 --> 00:18:05,760
Speaker 2: to Tom in Salem. Oregon. Hi, Tom, what say you?

285
00:18:05,840 --> 00:18:06,399
Speaker 7: Hi there?

286
00:18:07,520 --> 00:18:07,720
Speaker 5: Yeah?

287
00:18:07,760 --> 00:18:08,520
Speaker 7: I appreciate it.

288
00:18:08,640 --> 00:18:08,800
Speaker 5: Uh.

289
00:18:09,640 --> 00:18:12,840
Speaker 7: I think, yeah, I'm kind of leaning against pulling out

290
00:18:12,880 --> 00:18:16,240
Speaker 7: of Minneapolis, but just for the chaos, because I think

291
00:18:16,280 --> 00:18:19,120
Speaker 7: they want to just take advantage of the chaos and

292
00:18:19,359 --> 00:18:22,840
Speaker 7: ignore all that the fraud, and we need to and

293
00:18:23,040 --> 00:18:27,600
Speaker 7: kick up the fraud investigations on them. Go to California

294
00:18:27,720 --> 00:18:31,720
Speaker 7: and there's a bunch of illegals in there, and but

295
00:18:31,840 --> 00:18:34,280
Speaker 7: there's also a lot of fraud that so if we

296
00:18:34,359 --> 00:18:38,400
Speaker 7: have to pull out of California started arresting these fraudsters

297
00:18:38,480 --> 00:18:42,879
Speaker 7: and getting them, you know, let even Omar or what

298
00:18:43,000 --> 00:18:43,840
Speaker 7: their what's her name?

299
00:18:44,359 --> 00:18:45,560
Speaker 5: Why don't we arrest her?

300
00:18:45,600 --> 00:18:49,960
Speaker 7: And until we get that investigation going on? That Hell,

301
00:18:50,040 --> 00:18:52,320
Speaker 7: that's the that's one. I mean, she can't.

302
00:18:52,080 --> 00:18:55,560
Speaker 2: Explain, Tom, I don't think that's going to happen. I mean,

303
00:18:55,640 --> 00:18:58,840
Speaker 2: to date, and it's been what a year and a

304
00:18:58,920 --> 00:19:02,080
Speaker 2: year and a month now, and you know, the the

305
00:19:02,160 --> 00:19:06,440
Speaker 2: Justice Department hasn't held anyone accountable. So I'm with you.

306
00:19:06,520 --> 00:19:08,760
Speaker 2: I think we ought to be going after Ilhan Omar,

307
00:19:09,040 --> 00:19:11,399
Speaker 2: We ought to be going after all of these frausters,

308
00:19:11,680 --> 00:19:14,560
Speaker 2: but we are not. They're just not doing it. And

309
00:19:14,840 --> 00:19:17,240
Speaker 2: I don't know why. You know they're telling us. Oh well,

310
00:19:17,359 --> 00:19:21,560
Speaker 2: you know, these investigations take years, really, because they were

311
00:19:21,560 --> 00:19:24,200
Speaker 2: pretty quick when it came to arresting grandmas at pro

312
00:19:24,280 --> 00:19:28,200
Speaker 2: life centers and spying on Roman Catholics in Richmond, Virginia

313
00:19:28,320 --> 00:19:29,560
Speaker 2: during the Biden administration.

314
00:19:31,240 --> 00:19:31,760
Speaker 5: Yeah.

315
00:19:32,119 --> 00:19:35,119
Speaker 7: Yeah. And also I think anytime they picked up say

316
00:19:35,160 --> 00:19:37,879
Speaker 7: they should you stick a poster on the outside of

317
00:19:37,920 --> 00:19:40,520
Speaker 7: the car or something. This is who we're taken away.

318
00:19:40,560 --> 00:19:43,520
Speaker 7: This is your murderer of your child, braakfist. You know,

319
00:19:43,920 --> 00:19:45,200
Speaker 7: this is who we're picking up.

320
00:19:45,800 --> 00:19:49,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, Tom, Yeah, no, I hear you. They have lost

321
00:19:49,280 --> 00:19:51,400
Speaker 2: the narrative on that, and I'm with you. And look,

322
00:19:51,440 --> 00:19:54,600
Speaker 2: anytime an ICE agent is injured, I think we ought

323
00:19:54,600 --> 00:19:56,280
Speaker 2: to know about it. We ought to see the photos

324
00:19:56,280 --> 00:19:58,720
Speaker 2: of the injuries. Over the weekend, they actually did a

325
00:19:58,720 --> 00:20:02,199
Speaker 2: good job of that. Some some poor agent had his

326
00:20:02,440 --> 00:20:07,040
Speaker 2: finger bitten off by one of these cannibals that's out

327
00:20:07,080 --> 00:20:11,240
Speaker 2: on the streets marching in Minneapolis, and they posted the photographs.

328
00:20:11,280 --> 00:20:14,400
Speaker 2: We need to see that. The administration has to take

329
00:20:14,440 --> 00:20:17,480
Speaker 2: back control of the narrative here and it is way

330
00:20:17,480 --> 00:20:19,040
Speaker 2: out of control. And one of the ways they can

331
00:20:19,080 --> 00:20:22,320
Speaker 2: do that. Bye bye, BONDI Bye bye, Christine Omener, friend

332
00:20:22,359 --> 00:20:25,960
Speaker 2: Corey Lewandowski nine oh one two six zero five nine

333
00:20:26,000 --> 00:20:29,040
Speaker 2: two six, going right back to the phone lines. Don't

334
00:20:29,040 --> 00:20:44,320
Speaker 2: go anywhere, folks. This is the Tod Stern Show. All right,

335
00:20:44,359 --> 00:20:47,440
Speaker 2: welcome back everybody. This is the Todd Stearns Radio Show.

336
00:20:47,440 --> 00:20:50,480
Speaker 2: Hopefully you folks are doing well out there. A lot

337
00:20:50,480 --> 00:20:54,840
Speaker 2: of people without power. I feel extremely terrible for the

338
00:20:54,880 --> 00:20:58,320
Speaker 2: good people of Mississippi. You guys got that ice storm

339
00:20:58,480 --> 00:21:01,880
Speaker 2: or the freezing rain, and they're saying that some people

340
00:21:02,160 --> 00:21:05,120
Speaker 2: I don't could be without power for weeks. And it

341
00:21:05,280 --> 00:21:08,399
Speaker 2: is going to be below zero here in the Southern

342
00:21:08,440 --> 00:21:10,720
Speaker 2: States for a while. But all the way up from

343
00:21:10,720 --> 00:21:14,399
Speaker 2: what Texas, all the way up into the northeast, you

344
00:21:14,440 --> 00:21:15,639
Speaker 2: guys be safe out.

345
00:21:15,520 --> 00:21:16,320
Speaker 8: There, you know.

346
00:21:16,480 --> 00:21:21,000
Speaker 2: Ultimately, here's here's the question that people need to need

347
00:21:21,040 --> 00:21:28,199
Speaker 2: to really focus on because there is a lot of

348
00:21:28,560 --> 00:21:31,359
Speaker 2: there's been a lot of attention focused on the actions

349
00:21:31,440 --> 00:21:34,560
Speaker 2: of law enforcement, but the broader question here, and this

350
00:21:34,760 --> 00:21:40,040
Speaker 2: is for everybody in America because what's happening now, the

351
00:21:40,080 --> 00:21:44,480
Speaker 2: behavior of these Minneapolis rioters, it will be replicated in

352
00:21:44,560 --> 00:21:49,280
Speaker 2: other towns and communities. So here's the question. Do citizens

353
00:21:49,320 --> 00:21:53,160
Speaker 2: have a right to interfere with official law enforcement activities.

354
00:21:54,240 --> 00:21:58,120
Speaker 2: Do citizens have a right to interfere with police when

355
00:21:58,119 --> 00:22:02,480
Speaker 2: they are taking suspects into custody? Do citizens have a

356
00:22:02,560 --> 00:22:06,520
Speaker 2: right to fight back when police are attempting to arrest them?

357
00:22:06,920 --> 00:22:10,439
Speaker 2: Because that's what happened Saturday in Minneapolis, and that's what

358
00:22:10,600 --> 00:22:14,760
Speaker 2: led to that guy, the male nurse, getting shot. A

359
00:22:14,880 --> 00:22:18,280
Speaker 2: terrible tragedy, but one that could have been prevented, first

360
00:22:18,359 --> 00:22:22,520
Speaker 2: of all, by not shoving your cell phone into the

361
00:22:22,560 --> 00:22:27,000
Speaker 2: face of a law enforcement officer trying to conduct an apprehension.

362
00:22:28,880 --> 00:22:32,800
Speaker 2: So I'm just curious here, Let's go to the phones.

363
00:22:33,200 --> 00:22:35,720
Speaker 2: Nine oh one two six zero five nine two six

364
00:22:36,240 --> 00:22:40,719
Speaker 2: Richard in Gainesville, Georgia. Wdun Hi, Richard, what's on your

365
00:22:40,760 --> 00:22:41,359
Speaker 2: mind today?

366
00:22:43,240 --> 00:22:43,840
Speaker 4: Todd?

367
00:22:44,359 --> 00:22:45,600
Speaker 9: Hey, I'm an Army veteran.

368
00:22:45,720 --> 00:22:46,200
Speaker 10: Number one.

369
00:22:46,720 --> 00:22:49,480
Speaker 7: You take an oath to defend the Constitution of the

370
00:22:49,560 --> 00:22:50,760
Speaker 7: United States against all.

371
00:22:50,720 --> 00:22:52,320
Speaker 11: Enemies or an and domestic.

372
00:22:53,240 --> 00:22:54,480
Speaker 7: I'm involved in Georgia.

373
00:22:54,520 --> 00:22:56,040
Speaker 12: You know, Georgia's elections have.

374
00:22:56,040 --> 00:22:59,400
Speaker 7: The whole United States turned upside down because they're corrupt.

375
00:23:00,119 --> 00:23:01,120
Speaker 13: And I'm listening to.

376
00:23:01,080 --> 00:23:03,399
Speaker 7: You today and I just wish there was more people

377
00:23:03,440 --> 00:23:06,920
Speaker 7: in the media that would address these things and get

378
00:23:06,960 --> 00:23:11,520
Speaker 7: these people to move. They're not doing anything. I mean,

379
00:23:11,520 --> 00:23:14,000
Speaker 7: it's been over a year. And look at the extent

380
00:23:14,320 --> 00:23:17,880
Speaker 7: that they took against President Trump, who's.

381
00:23:17,960 --> 00:23:19,480
Speaker 10: Working for no money.

382
00:23:20,240 --> 00:23:22,480
Speaker 11: He's given up billions of dollars.

383
00:23:23,880 --> 00:23:25,240
Speaker 7: Nobody has done more.

384
00:23:25,080 --> 00:23:28,720
Speaker 9: And we have people in the United States that hate them.

385
00:23:29,000 --> 00:23:33,199
Speaker 2: Well, it's the level of incompetence at the DOJ and

386
00:23:33,280 --> 00:23:37,399
Speaker 2: Homeland Security. And again, I guess the argument could be

387
00:23:37,440 --> 00:23:40,280
Speaker 2: made the buck stops with President Trump. But look, Trump

388
00:23:40,280 --> 00:23:44,119
Speaker 2: can't do everything. And if these if these two christin

389
00:23:44,200 --> 00:23:46,960
Speaker 2: Nome and Pam PONDI cannot do the job. They got

390
00:23:46,960 --> 00:23:48,200
Speaker 2: to get out of there. And I don't know what's

391
00:23:48,240 --> 00:23:52,440
Speaker 2: going on with cash Pttel, but again, it's very clear

392
00:23:52,640 --> 00:23:58,800
Speaker 2: that there are laws being violated by government leaders and

393
00:23:58,840 --> 00:24:02,040
Speaker 2: nobody's being held account I mean, we've got investigations out

394
00:24:02,080 --> 00:24:06,040
Speaker 2: the wazoo. But I'm tired of the investigations, Richard. I

395
00:24:06,080 --> 00:24:08,520
Speaker 2: want to see people being held accountable.

396
00:24:11,280 --> 00:24:14,600
Speaker 9: God, I can't gift behind you anymore, and I can.

397
00:24:14,760 --> 00:24:18,439
Speaker 7: I am so ready to take our country back. You know,

398
00:24:18,480 --> 00:24:20,200
Speaker 7: I'm involved in elections here.

399
00:24:20,040 --> 00:24:21,960
Speaker 2: And uh, well, I don't want to get yet and

400
00:24:22,000 --> 00:24:24,159
Speaker 2: I do, yeah, and I don't want to get I

401
00:24:24,160 --> 00:24:26,199
Speaker 2: don't want to get off on that, on that, on

402
00:24:26,280 --> 00:24:28,639
Speaker 2: that topic. We're going to stay focused today, Richard. I

403
00:24:28,640 --> 00:24:30,560
Speaker 2: appreciate the call, but we got to stay focused on

404
00:24:30,600 --> 00:24:33,080
Speaker 2: this because if we can't get this right in Minneapolis,

405
00:24:33,119 --> 00:24:36,439
Speaker 2: it's all over and we have been it is. It

406
00:24:36,520 --> 00:24:40,080
Speaker 2: is going to be a tough, tough lawn slog to

407
00:24:40,160 --> 00:24:43,040
Speaker 2: get these illegals out of here. Doesn't have to be,

408
00:24:43,359 --> 00:24:45,840
Speaker 2: but it's going to be. And we don't have a

409
00:24:45,880 --> 00:24:47,800
Speaker 2: lot of time. And the fact of the matter is

410
00:24:47,960 --> 00:24:53,920
Speaker 2: Obama Obama fought millions of people got deboarded under Obama's administration,

411
00:24:54,760 --> 00:24:59,520
Speaker 2: millions and nobody said a word. Nobody. Let's go to

412
00:24:59,600 --> 00:25:03,399
Speaker 2: Arkans Roberts, Robert, what's on your mind?

413
00:25:04,200 --> 00:25:09,080
Speaker 11: Yes, there or so many points, so little time. Yeah,

414
00:25:09,119 --> 00:25:12,000
Speaker 11: the DOJ needs to be restructured now.

415
00:25:13,320 --> 00:25:13,439
Speaker 5: Uh.

416
00:25:13,720 --> 00:25:15,960
Speaker 11: And what's going on in Minnesota. You're right, it's gonna

417
00:25:16,000 --> 00:25:20,359
Speaker 11: be replicated because someone is pulling the strange fig You

418
00:25:20,400 --> 00:25:22,520
Speaker 11: can take it back to Germany. You had someone go

419
00:25:22,640 --> 00:25:28,879
Speaker 11: into power and he systematically had built a core and

420
00:25:28,960 --> 00:25:32,760
Speaker 11: not everyone was involved, but everyone went along when they

421
00:25:32,800 --> 00:25:39,080
Speaker 11: saw the power structure. And what's happening in Minnesota is

422
00:25:39,160 --> 00:25:43,119
Speaker 11: very coordinating. It is very coordinated. And that pistol that

423
00:25:43,280 --> 00:25:46,240
Speaker 11: was shot, that was that man's pistol is a P

424
00:25:46,400 --> 00:25:50,040
Speaker 11: three twenty and it's under investigation, has been for a

425
00:25:50,080 --> 00:25:53,560
Speaker 11: long time because through that stone that it goes off without.

426
00:25:53,320 --> 00:25:54,280
Speaker 9: The treasured before.

427
00:25:55,200 --> 00:25:57,840
Speaker 11: But we don't know their fabor. We don't know what

428
00:25:58,000 --> 00:26:01,800
Speaker 11: that got planned. And that's why I worked early. It's

429
00:26:01,800 --> 00:26:02,680
Speaker 11: a civil war.

430
00:26:03,600 --> 00:26:08,280
Speaker 2: Well it certainly, yes, it is, it really is, and

431
00:26:08,280 --> 00:26:11,520
Speaker 2: it's an undeclared civil war. But you've got there is

432
00:26:11,640 --> 00:26:14,600
Speaker 2: clearly and this is what concerns me. You've got a

433
00:26:14,720 --> 00:26:20,199
Speaker 2: network here, and it is a nationwide network of people

434
00:26:20,240 --> 00:26:24,360
Speaker 2: that are willing to disrupt and cause mayhem. This it's

435
00:26:24,520 --> 00:26:26,879
Speaker 2: very well fun. Look how many times remember of the

436
00:26:26,920 --> 00:26:30,440
Speaker 2: summertime where you would have in like Chicago, New York City,

437
00:26:30,960 --> 00:26:34,840
Speaker 2: Los Angeles, where the palettes of bricks would be dropped off.

438
00:26:34,920 --> 00:26:38,280
Speaker 2: I mean, they're the logistics. There is a command and

439
00:26:38,440 --> 00:26:42,479
Speaker 2: control to all of this, and we have got to

440
00:26:42,480 --> 00:26:45,040
Speaker 2: figure out who those who those people are and what

441
00:26:45,080 --> 00:26:47,679
Speaker 2: they're ultimately up to, what is the end goal here.

442
00:26:48,600 --> 00:26:51,440
Speaker 11: And prosecutes them to the pose spendable law.

443
00:26:53,960 --> 00:26:57,720
Speaker 2: One thousand percent one thousand percent, all right, Robert, thank

444
00:26:57,760 --> 00:27:00,719
Speaker 2: you for listening. A nine oh one two zero five

445
00:27:00,880 --> 00:27:03,840
Speaker 2: nine two six. Our telephone number, that's nine oh one

446
00:27:03,880 --> 00:27:07,359
Speaker 2: two six zero five nine two six. Let's go to

447
00:27:08,080 --> 00:27:11,919
Speaker 2: Matthew in Alaska. Hi Matthew, what's on your mind today?

448
00:27:13,480 --> 00:27:13,600
Speaker 6: Hi?

449
00:27:13,720 --> 00:27:14,040
Speaker 14: Todd.

450
00:27:14,560 --> 00:27:16,560
Speaker 12: I used to live in Sykes and I'm a pastor

451
00:27:16,560 --> 00:27:18,479
Speaker 12: would call over now. I'm in Alaska, but where we

452
00:27:18,520 --> 00:27:20,960
Speaker 12: live is about thirty or forty degrees, so it's a

453
00:27:21,000 --> 00:27:25,200
Speaker 12: lot nicer than where you're at right now. I agree

454
00:27:25,240 --> 00:27:28,720
Speaker 12: with you. I think the big thing it's this is

455
00:27:28,760 --> 00:27:30,560
Speaker 12: like one of the first times that I really have

456
00:27:30,640 --> 00:27:34,080
Speaker 12: seen Trump lose the narrative. He's always been able to

457
00:27:35,240 --> 00:27:39,840
Speaker 12: rebound get control, but this is getting out of just

458
00:27:40,320 --> 00:27:43,119
Speaker 12: incredibly out of him, Like who's getting arrested? Why is

459
00:27:43,200 --> 00:27:45,719
Speaker 12: Don Lemon? I mean jumping to the church and the others.

460
00:27:45,760 --> 00:27:50,040
Speaker 12: We need to see people getting arrested and we're not

461
00:27:50,119 --> 00:27:52,960
Speaker 12: law enforcement. I mean, he's starting to lose I think

462
00:27:53,320 --> 00:27:56,119
Speaker 12: something Trump's never had. And you can speak more of

463
00:27:56,160 --> 00:27:58,119
Speaker 12: this than me, Todd, but I think he's starting to

464
00:27:58,200 --> 00:28:00,880
Speaker 12: lose some of his base. And then I had one

465
00:28:00,960 --> 00:28:04,560
Speaker 12: last praise for you. Please you guys download the app.

466
00:28:04,560 --> 00:28:07,560
Speaker 12: I just downloaded it. It's a really good app And

467
00:28:07,600 --> 00:28:11,359
Speaker 12: then I really was disappointed in something you put in

468
00:28:11,440 --> 00:28:15,639
Speaker 12: a post top about the church shooting and you called

469
00:28:15,680 --> 00:28:17,399
Speaker 12: out the men, and I just felt like it was

470
00:28:17,480 --> 00:28:21,679
Speaker 12: really maybe not real sensitive And I know that's not

471
00:28:21,800 --> 00:28:24,840
Speaker 12: your forte. It's like, but I just as a pastor,

472
00:28:24,880 --> 00:28:28,360
Speaker 12: I like grieved because you know you're an advocate for them,

473
00:28:28,400 --> 00:28:30,040
Speaker 12: and you're staying with me like, well, I'm going to

474
00:28:30,119 --> 00:28:32,800
Speaker 12: say it, where's the men on the church? On the

475
00:28:32,920 --> 00:28:36,720
Speaker 12: church protesters? So anyway, that's just my criticism. I hope

476
00:28:36,760 --> 00:28:37,919
Speaker 12: you don't take it offensively.

477
00:28:38,120 --> 00:28:41,120
Speaker 2: No what but no, no, no, not at all. Look

478
00:28:41,320 --> 00:28:44,360
Speaker 2: I and I'm happy to I'm happy to explain my

479
00:28:44,520 --> 00:28:49,680
Speaker 2: point there. Yesterday we received more details of the court

480
00:28:49,760 --> 00:28:54,440
Speaker 2: documents about what exactly happened. And this was a very

481
00:28:54,480 --> 00:29:00,080
Speaker 2: prolonged occupation of the church, Matthew and you. According to

482
00:29:00,400 --> 00:29:04,080
Speaker 2: the court documents, at least one of the ladies of

483
00:29:04,120 --> 00:29:08,280
Speaker 2: the church she fell and broke her arm. The mob

484
00:29:08,560 --> 00:29:12,000
Speaker 2: actually confronted children. I'm reading from the court documents here.

485
00:29:12,480 --> 00:29:15,880
Speaker 2: The mob confronted the children and they said, do you

486
00:29:15,920 --> 00:29:18,400
Speaker 2: know your parents are Nazis? They're going to burn in Hell.

487
00:29:18,440 --> 00:29:21,200
Speaker 2: I mean, that's what they're telling the kids. Parents tried

488
00:29:21,240 --> 00:29:25,120
Speaker 2: to get their children from Sunday school classes, but apparently

489
00:29:25,280 --> 00:29:29,720
Speaker 2: the agitators were blocking the stairs and they were very threatening,

490
00:29:29,840 --> 00:29:34,240
Speaker 2: aggressive and intimidating. Another writer was screaming and getting in

491
00:29:34,280 --> 00:29:39,960
Speaker 2: people's faces, including young children. The kids were weeping. Church

492
00:29:40,000 --> 00:29:43,440
Speaker 2: members were followed to their cars and surrounded. Many were

493
00:29:43,480 --> 00:29:46,640
Speaker 2: not allowed to leave, and one child actually said to

494
00:29:46,680 --> 00:29:49,320
Speaker 2: his father, Daddy, I thought you were going to die.

495
00:29:50,200 --> 00:29:53,160
Speaker 2: So here's my concern, Matthew, when you go back and

496
00:29:53,200 --> 00:29:58,720
Speaker 2: look at the videos. The men, nobody did anything. There

497
00:29:58,800 --> 00:30:03,000
Speaker 2: was no effort except from the pastor. There was no

498
00:30:03,120 --> 00:30:06,800
Speaker 2: effort by any man in that church to stand up

499
00:30:07,280 --> 00:30:12,320
Speaker 2: and defend anybody. And I'm just wondering what happened there.

500
00:30:12,520 --> 00:30:15,680
Speaker 2: You know, why is it that the men of the

501
00:30:15,800 --> 00:30:18,960
Speaker 2: church did not stand up. I'm not questioning their manhood

502
00:30:18,960 --> 00:30:21,640
Speaker 2: at all. I'm just wondering what happened there? Where were

503
00:30:21,680 --> 00:30:25,800
Speaker 2: the deacons. Was there some sort of a church security plan,

504
00:30:26,200 --> 00:30:28,640
Speaker 2: because I don't think there was, just based on the

505
00:30:29,240 --> 00:30:33,880
Speaker 2: vast confusion that we saw in the videos.

506
00:30:34,240 --> 00:30:37,040
Speaker 12: Well, I would just say as a pastor and I

507
00:30:37,160 --> 00:30:40,479
Speaker 12: thought through, like probably every pastor in every church person.

508
00:30:41,200 --> 00:30:43,240
Speaker 12: I don't want to say if you're right or wrong,

509
00:30:43,320 --> 00:30:46,000
Speaker 12: but I know I don't know what I would do.

510
00:30:46,120 --> 00:30:47,600
Speaker 12: You know, I would like to say like I would

511
00:30:47,640 --> 00:30:50,480
Speaker 12: be like that pastor, but I don't know if I

512
00:30:50,480 --> 00:30:53,360
Speaker 12: would really be like this that pastor. So I'm just

513
00:30:53,480 --> 00:30:55,320
Speaker 12: kind of it'd be good for you to do a

514
00:30:55,320 --> 00:30:58,320
Speaker 12: segment on church securities, to interview somebody. But then I

515
00:30:58,360 --> 00:31:02,080
Speaker 12: had one other small information. I have a lot of

516
00:31:02,080 --> 00:31:04,440
Speaker 12: Somali friends that come to my chirts that were reaching

517
00:31:04,480 --> 00:31:07,840
Speaker 12: out to and you will not these are some of

518
00:31:07,880 --> 00:31:11,640
Speaker 12: them are from Minnesota and they're legal. But they told

519
00:31:11,640 --> 00:31:14,680
Speaker 12: me last year that the majority of the men in

520
00:31:14,720 --> 00:31:18,880
Speaker 12: the Somali community actually voted for Trump. And I mean

521
00:31:18,880 --> 00:31:21,640
Speaker 12: they're my friends, so they're not just saying that. So anyway,

522
00:31:21,880 --> 00:31:23,360
Speaker 12: thanks Dot, keep up the good work.

523
00:31:23,520 --> 00:31:27,040
Speaker 2: All right, thanks Matthew, appreciate the call and no, but

524
00:31:27,280 --> 00:31:28,960
Speaker 2: in all seriousness, you know, when you go back and

525
00:31:29,000 --> 00:31:31,040
Speaker 2: you look at the videos, you're like, Okay, why why

526
00:31:31,040 --> 00:31:35,240
Speaker 2: didn't any men in the church rise up and say okay?

527
00:31:35,320 --> 00:31:38,440
Speaker 2: And for me, the issue would have and look, all

528
00:31:38,480 --> 00:31:41,240
Speaker 2: of us be we have to be thinking what would

529
00:31:41,240 --> 00:31:44,560
Speaker 2: you do in that situation? Be aware of your surroundings.

530
00:31:45,600 --> 00:31:47,800
Speaker 2: I'm just telling you I know what I would I

531
00:31:48,000 --> 00:31:51,120
Speaker 2: know what I would do, and I've been in those

532
00:31:51,200 --> 00:31:55,280
Speaker 2: situations before and I've I've done what needed to be done,

533
00:31:55,960 --> 00:31:58,200
Speaker 2: which is you stand up and you do not allow

534
00:31:58,680 --> 00:32:01,560
Speaker 2: these people these domestic terrorists. And I know we're not

535
00:32:01,560 --> 00:32:04,120
Speaker 2: allowed to use those words, but that's what these people are.

536
00:32:04,160 --> 00:32:07,920
Speaker 2: They went into the church with the intent of committing terror,

537
00:32:08,720 --> 00:32:13,840
Speaker 2: and they succeeded their domestic terrorists. But it just seems

538
00:32:13,880 --> 00:32:17,480
Speaker 2: to me that somebody should have just started like grabbing,

539
00:32:17,920 --> 00:32:21,400
Speaker 2: because I mean, well, some of them were large, but

540
00:32:21,560 --> 00:32:24,640
Speaker 2: most of them were like these skinny soy boy snowflakes,

541
00:32:24,960 --> 00:32:26,960
Speaker 2: and I did just grab you grab them by the

542
00:32:27,280 --> 00:32:29,440
Speaker 2: belt strap in the back, and you hoist them right

543
00:32:29,480 --> 00:32:33,080
Speaker 2: out of the church with your right hand of Christian fellowship.

544
00:32:33,440 --> 00:32:35,800
Speaker 2: That's what I would have done. But anyway, all right,

545
00:32:36,000 --> 00:32:39,000
Speaker 2: Uh nine oh one two six zero five nine two six,

546
00:32:39,440 --> 00:32:44,600
Speaker 2: Let's go to Steve little Rock, Arkansas. Hi, Steve, what's

547
00:32:44,640 --> 00:32:45,080
Speaker 2: going on?

548
00:32:46,760 --> 00:32:47,000
Speaker 15: God?

549
00:32:47,120 --> 00:32:53,520
Speaker 5: Do you guys have the comments about uh, the Republicans

550
00:32:53,560 --> 00:32:56,480
Speaker 5: and staff? Is this so beying? So in pop of it?

551
00:32:56,520 --> 00:33:00,280
Speaker 5: About why they responded? How do you know the way

552
00:33:00,320 --> 00:33:03,640
Speaker 5: to take that? Look about it, or is this the

553
00:33:03,720 --> 00:33:07,680
Speaker 5: plan the way to treatment, because it looks like to me,

554
00:33:07,840 --> 00:33:11,920
Speaker 5: from both sides, everybody in a position of authority to

555
00:33:12,120 --> 00:33:15,880
Speaker 5: do something about this is doing nothing but just feeding

556
00:33:15,880 --> 00:33:20,560
Speaker 5: the fires, flapping their jaws, doing nothing and trying to

557
00:33:20,600 --> 00:33:23,720
Speaker 5: get the people to go out in the streets and

558
00:33:23,840 --> 00:33:30,760
Speaker 5: do it. I think the wiring Democrats complaining about the

559
00:33:30,840 --> 00:33:34,400
Speaker 5: mayor and the governor and everybody up there, that's they

560
00:33:34,400 --> 00:33:37,600
Speaker 5: get on television and say that ICE's officers are in

561
00:33:37,680 --> 00:33:41,040
Speaker 5: here for bit and murder. They're breaking their constitution, They're

562
00:33:41,080 --> 00:33:44,480
Speaker 5: breaking all these walls. How many ICE officers have been arrested?

563
00:33:45,720 --> 00:33:50,520
Speaker 5: What have they done to to protect their citizens from this?

564
00:33:51,640 --> 00:33:55,080
Speaker 5: And everybody is just trying to turn this into it

565
00:33:55,200 --> 00:33:58,080
Speaker 5: in my opinion, call it the civil war, our call

566
00:33:58,200 --> 00:34:01,600
Speaker 5: it us uprising, and just whatever you want to But

567
00:34:01,640 --> 00:34:04,000
Speaker 5: to me, it looks like both sides are trying to

568
00:34:04,040 --> 00:34:06,360
Speaker 5: get the people to do it instead of in doing

569
00:34:06,360 --> 00:34:06,840
Speaker 5: their job.

570
00:34:08,560 --> 00:34:11,560
Speaker 2: It's a fair look, Steve, it's a fair point you raise,

571
00:34:12,000 --> 00:34:14,759
Speaker 2: and look, I just call it like I see it

572
00:34:14,840 --> 00:34:18,720
Speaker 2: on this radio show. And I'm not sure what people

573
00:34:18,880 --> 00:34:23,120
Speaker 2: thought deportation was going to look like. But keep in

574
00:34:23,160 --> 00:34:26,520
Speaker 2: mind that the deportations have been pretty fine. Let me

575
00:34:26,560 --> 00:34:29,200
Speaker 2: explain something to you, and I will say this. The

576
00:34:29,760 --> 00:34:34,120
Speaker 2: Bondi mentioned Memphis, Tennessee in her press remarks the other day,

577
00:34:34,440 --> 00:34:37,920
Speaker 2: I'm sorry her Fox News interview, and in this Fox

578
00:34:37,960 --> 00:34:40,440
Speaker 2: News interview she said things have been going great in Memphis.

579
00:34:40,480 --> 00:34:44,000
Speaker 2: And it's true. We've had had thousands, thousands of arrest

580
00:34:44,520 --> 00:34:47,879
Speaker 2: our crime rate is down seventy percent. We haven't had

581
00:34:47,880 --> 00:34:51,880
Speaker 2: any of this nonsense, this anarchy, and a lot of

582
00:34:51,880 --> 00:34:54,440
Speaker 2: it is because the mayor of Memphis, who's a Democrat,

583
00:34:54,600 --> 00:34:57,759
Speaker 2: understands that at the end of the day, the government's

584
00:34:57,840 --> 00:35:00,959
Speaker 2: doing him a favor because the mayor is not able

585
00:35:01,000 --> 00:35:03,800
Speaker 2: to deal with the crime situation. So the federal government's

586
00:35:03,840 --> 00:35:09,000
Speaker 2: coming in and they're doing it. But let me just say, Steve,

587
00:35:09,960 --> 00:35:13,640
Speaker 2: if the president pulls everybody out, it will be seen

588
00:35:13,800 --> 00:35:17,000
Speaker 2: as a major loss and defeat for this president. There's

589
00:35:17,080 --> 00:35:21,040
Speaker 2: no and I warned people weeks ago that we would

590
00:35:21,040 --> 00:35:23,240
Speaker 2: get to a point where it would be a lose

591
00:35:23,360 --> 00:35:25,279
Speaker 2: lose proposition for the administration.

592
00:35:28,600 --> 00:35:33,640
Speaker 5: There's two there's two sorcful times that that definct what's

593
00:35:33,680 --> 00:35:38,680
Speaker 5: going on right down to me. Revelationariism and Goulani is

594
00:35:39,880 --> 00:35:43,200
Speaker 5: the Democrat Party is trying to spur their base into

595
00:35:43,280 --> 00:35:46,640
Speaker 5: the revolution, and the Republicans Party is trying to spur

596
00:35:46,800 --> 00:35:49,560
Speaker 5: their base into taking gogul An.

597
00:35:49,680 --> 00:35:53,640
Speaker 2: Offs against one thousand percent. Right, Steve, I got to run,

598
00:35:53,680 --> 00:35:56,080
Speaker 2: my friend. Good to hear from you. Nine oh one

599
00:35:56,200 --> 00:35:58,759
Speaker 2: two six zero five nine. Tuesday's got to take a

600
00:35:58,840 --> 00:36:09,680
Speaker 2: quick break. This is the Todd Stern Show. All right,

601
00:36:10,040 --> 00:36:15,360
Speaker 2: let's go to the Phone's here Gina in Georgia. Hi, Gina,

602
00:36:15,440 --> 00:36:16,680
Speaker 2: what's on your mind today?

603
00:36:17,680 --> 00:36:20,920
Speaker 6: Hey tid So, I want to agree with you one

604
00:36:21,719 --> 00:36:25,480
Speaker 6: about Bondie Cash that they need to go.

605
00:36:26,040 --> 00:36:26,719
Speaker 5: I'm with you.

606
00:36:26,920 --> 00:36:31,680
Speaker 6: They've done absolutely nothing but nothing, and they talked such

607
00:36:31,680 --> 00:36:33,520
Speaker 6: a big game before they went in, so I don't

608
00:36:33,520 --> 00:36:36,000
Speaker 6: know what happened. I also want to agree with you

609
00:36:36,040 --> 00:36:39,680
Speaker 6: on the minut at the church, and also the fact

610
00:36:39,760 --> 00:36:44,239
Speaker 6: that Trump or whoever didn't send in any backup after that.

611
00:36:44,680 --> 00:36:46,560
Speaker 6: You know, it just kind of made it like, well,

612
00:36:46,560 --> 00:36:50,520
Speaker 6: it's okay to do that. And the other thing I

613
00:36:50,560 --> 00:36:53,160
Speaker 6: wanted to say, I just saw where Trump has had

614
00:36:53,200 --> 00:36:58,520
Speaker 6: a phone call with the governor there in Minnesota, and

615
00:36:58,560 --> 00:37:01,799
Speaker 6: I think he said something like they're on from one

616
00:37:01,800 --> 00:37:05,239
Speaker 6: of the same wavelengths. Maybe, And I can't imagine what

617
00:37:05,440 --> 00:37:08,480
Speaker 6: similarities they could have in a phone call about this.

618
00:37:08,600 --> 00:37:10,840
Speaker 6: And it worries me because I'm afraid you may be

619
00:37:10,960 --> 00:37:12,920
Speaker 6: right that they're going to pull everybody out. Well if

620
00:37:12,960 --> 00:37:15,000
Speaker 6: they do that and go on to the next town,

621
00:37:15,400 --> 00:37:17,360
Speaker 6: well the paid protesters are just going to do the

622
00:37:17,400 --> 00:37:20,960
Speaker 6: same thing. And the governor is talking about chaos, and

623
00:37:20,960 --> 00:37:23,880
Speaker 6: Trump wanted chaos. He is the creator of the chaos,

624
00:37:23,920 --> 00:37:27,160
Speaker 6: as you all know. And he has brainwashed the people.

625
00:37:27,960 --> 00:37:30,279
Speaker 6: I know, they're the paid ones, true who could care

626
00:37:30,360 --> 00:37:33,120
Speaker 6: less either way, but he has brainwashed so many and

627
00:37:33,239 --> 00:37:37,879
Speaker 6: especially yep, those liberal women who are just I saw

628
00:37:37,920 --> 00:37:40,920
Speaker 6: some posts yesterday from some people who never say anything

629
00:37:40,920 --> 00:37:45,600
Speaker 6: and they're just mortified, and because of lying Democrats who

630
00:37:45,640 --> 00:37:48,600
Speaker 6: have taught them that it's okay to go against police.

631
00:37:48,680 --> 00:37:51,320
Speaker 6: You know that started with George Floyd and even before,

632
00:37:51,960 --> 00:37:54,399
Speaker 6: but it really amps up then and now. I mean,

633
00:37:54,400 --> 00:37:58,319
Speaker 6: it's just their free game to do anything. And you know,

634
00:37:58,760 --> 00:38:00,879
Speaker 6: no one's calling that out of course, the media wall

635
00:38:01,000 --> 00:38:06,160
Speaker 6: it's me, even Fox. Some of the others don't really

636
00:38:06,160 --> 00:38:08,640
Speaker 6: go after like you said, they should be posting what

637
00:38:08,680 --> 00:38:13,239
Speaker 6: they're doing to the ice men. I mean, it's just

638
00:38:13,440 --> 00:38:17,239
Speaker 6: pure chaos and a fight everywhere they go. I can't

639
00:38:17,280 --> 00:38:21,480
Speaker 6: imagine being in their position and trying to control a

640
00:38:21,560 --> 00:38:24,560
Speaker 6: mob who is constantly attacking them, and it just goes

641
00:38:24,600 --> 00:38:26,640
Speaker 6: on and on, and nobody's stopping it, not.

642
00:38:26,640 --> 00:38:29,120
Speaker 2: A single person. And we'll get into what the White

643
00:38:29,120 --> 00:38:31,800
Speaker 2: House did. They issued a statement from the President saying

644
00:38:32,120 --> 00:38:34,960
Speaker 2: that you know, it was a good call. They're on

645
00:38:35,040 --> 00:38:38,399
Speaker 2: the same you know, wavelength or a similar wavelength. I'm

646
00:38:38,440 --> 00:38:42,640
Speaker 2: not buying that for one minute. I'll have more to

647
00:38:42,640 --> 00:38:45,759
Speaker 2: say about that coming up after the break, Gina, thank

648
00:38:45,840 --> 00:38:49,200
Speaker 2: you for those comments. Nine oh one two six zero

649
00:38:49,400 --> 00:38:52,560
Speaker 2: five nine two six. Will be monitoring the White House

650
00:38:52,600 --> 00:38:56,319
Speaker 2: Press briefing. We understand they'll be taking questions, so we'll

651
00:38:56,320 --> 00:38:59,120
Speaker 2: see how that goes as well. All right, Hay and tight, everybody,

652
00:38:59,320 --> 00:39:01,800
Speaker 2: don't go anywhere. This is the Todd Strings Radio.

Speaker 1: Show live from the Liberty University Studio in Memphis, Tennessee.

654
00:39:23,040 --> 00:39:25,680
Speaker 1: It's America's conservative blowtorch.

655
00:39:26,120 --> 00:39:30,960
Speaker 2: That's American.

656
00:39:33,719 --> 00:39:35,000
Speaker 1: Todd starts.

657
00:39:35,360 --> 00:39:39,400
Speaker 2: Yea, all right, so over on to see it. Ed

658
00:39:40,160 --> 00:39:44,840
Speaker 2: Jake tamper Man, What a what a sorry excuse for

659
00:39:44,920 --> 00:39:49,279
Speaker 2: a journalist this guy is anyway, Jake tamper interviewing some

660
00:39:49,640 --> 00:39:52,720
Speaker 2: liberal nutjob who looks like Waldo. He's wearing the where's

661
00:39:52,800 --> 00:39:57,720
Speaker 2: Waldo knit camp there? And this guy is now saying

662
00:39:58,000 --> 00:40:01,600
Speaker 2: that President Trump and and eyes are on the verge

663
00:40:01,640 --> 00:40:05,640
Speaker 2: of putting people in ovens to execute them. Take a listen.

664
00:40:06,120 --> 00:40:08,520
Speaker 16: I understand that that they take people to Fort Snelling here,

665
00:40:08,560 --> 00:40:12,680
Speaker 16: which literally was built as a concentration camp, and Alligator Alcatraz,

666
00:40:13,320 --> 00:40:16,280
Speaker 16: which I think we can all agree is a concentration camp.

667
00:40:16,680 --> 00:40:18,959
Speaker 16: Not saying they're doti I'm not saying they're putting people

668
00:40:18,960 --> 00:40:22,600
Speaker 16: in ovens yet, but these are concentration camps.

669
00:40:22,680 --> 00:40:23,000
Speaker 4: Okay.

670
00:40:23,920 --> 00:40:25,640
Speaker 9: I don't need to argue with you though.

671
00:40:25,719 --> 00:40:31,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, no champers, all right, Okay, sure, why not? That's

672
00:40:31,760 --> 00:40:35,399
Speaker 2: that's what we're dealing with. The mainstream media is one

673
00:40:35,400 --> 00:40:39,160
Speaker 2: of the biggest problems in this nation. I want to

674
00:40:39,160 --> 00:40:41,520
Speaker 2: go to our Patriot mobile newsmaker line one of the

675
00:40:41,520 --> 00:40:44,319
Speaker 2: good guys in the media from Twin Cities Radio. They're

676
00:40:44,320 --> 00:40:48,880
Speaker 2: in Minneapolis, a great talk radio host, John Justice. John,

677
00:40:49,200 --> 00:40:50,800
Speaker 2: good to have you with us today.

678
00:40:51,680 --> 00:40:53,640
Speaker 10: Thank you so much for having me on. And I

679
00:40:53,680 --> 00:40:57,920
Speaker 10: hadn't heard that clip yet, and I couldn't face palm

680
00:40:58,000 --> 00:40:59,960
Speaker 10: harder if I tried unblo.

681
00:41:00,680 --> 00:41:03,480
Speaker 2: You know the president just a few moments ago. We're

682
00:41:03,520 --> 00:41:06,239
Speaker 2: getting a lot of new developments and a very quick

683
00:41:06,280 --> 00:41:09,440
Speaker 2: amount of time. And the President saying that he talked

684
00:41:09,440 --> 00:41:14,120
Speaker 2: to Governor Waltz and or the governor called him, said

685
00:41:14,120 --> 00:41:16,560
Speaker 2: it was a good call. We seemed to be on

686
00:41:16,600 --> 00:41:20,279
Speaker 2: a similar wavelength. And Trump said, I told Waltz that

687
00:41:20,280 --> 00:41:23,239
Speaker 2: I would have Tom Homan call him, and that we

688
00:41:23,320 --> 00:41:26,680
Speaker 2: are looking for any and all criminals that they have

689
00:41:26,800 --> 00:41:29,680
Speaker 2: in their possession. So he said, the governor was respectful,

690
00:41:29,760 --> 00:41:31,080
Speaker 2: are you buying any of this?

691
00:41:32,360 --> 00:41:35,759
Speaker 10: So it depends on what you mean by buying. I

692
00:41:35,800 --> 00:41:41,600
Speaker 10: don't expect the operations to end here in Minnesota anytime soon.

693
00:41:41,680 --> 00:41:42,560
Speaker 12: There was some.

694
00:41:42,440 --> 00:41:47,279
Speaker 10: Words that perhaps some of the ice, sort of ice

695
00:41:47,360 --> 00:41:49,960
Speaker 10: that had arrived here was moving on to some other states.

696
00:41:49,960 --> 00:41:54,719
Speaker 10: But with one weekend and the ramping up of the

697
00:41:54,719 --> 00:42:01,160
Speaker 10: the agitators, it looks like that those reinforcements are actually

698
00:42:01,239 --> 00:42:04,160
Speaker 10: staying in place or turning around and coming back. Regarding

699
00:42:04,200 --> 00:42:08,200
Speaker 10: this conversation between Walls and Trump, I think this is

700
00:42:08,239 --> 00:42:12,120
Speaker 10: Trump trying to play nice. Walls knows he's in a

701
00:42:12,120 --> 00:42:14,319
Speaker 10: really tough spot. There was a lot of violence that

702
00:42:14,400 --> 00:42:19,280
Speaker 10: took place over the weekend. We've moved beyond grassroots into

703
00:42:19,719 --> 00:42:24,000
Speaker 10: really organized agitators that are on the streets. And so

704
00:42:24,200 --> 00:42:29,440
Speaker 10: with home and coming in, I don't expect Trump's operations

705
00:42:29,480 --> 00:42:32,640
Speaker 10: ICE operations to slow down. And this sounds to me

706
00:42:32,800 --> 00:42:35,600
Speaker 10: like Trump's trying to sort of play nice saying we're

707
00:42:35,600 --> 00:42:38,520
Speaker 10: talking with walls, but I expect more of the same

708
00:42:38,560 --> 00:42:39,320
Speaker 10: on the ground.

709
00:42:39,040 --> 00:42:40,160
Speaker 11: To the operations.

710
00:42:40,239 --> 00:42:44,240
Speaker 2: You know, I'm curious about about your listeners. The general

711
00:42:44,280 --> 00:42:47,120
Speaker 2: mood of the good citizens of Minneapolis. We haven't heard

712
00:42:47,160 --> 00:42:49,640
Speaker 2: a lot from them in the national news coverage. What

713
00:42:49,719 --> 00:42:50,920
Speaker 2: are they saying about all of this.

714
00:42:51,880 --> 00:42:56,640
Speaker 10: They're tired of the pushback. They understand what people paying

715
00:42:56,680 --> 00:43:00,759
Speaker 10: attention understand, and that is none of what's happening in

716
00:43:00,800 --> 00:43:04,200
Speaker 10: Minnesota right now needs to have happened. None of it

717
00:43:04,239 --> 00:43:08,960
Speaker 10: is necessary. You have Florida, Georgia, Tennessee, Virginia, Arizona.

718
00:43:09,239 --> 00:43:12,200
Speaker 11: They've all had more arrests when it.

719
00:43:12,160 --> 00:43:15,840
Speaker 10: Comes to criminal illegals here in America. In those states,

720
00:43:15,880 --> 00:43:18,160
Speaker 10: they've had more arrests of criminal illegals than we have

721
00:43:18,239 --> 00:43:20,960
Speaker 10: here in Minnesota. But they've had no issues in those

722
00:43:20,960 --> 00:43:24,680
Speaker 10: states because federal law enforcement can work with local law enforcement.

723
00:43:24,960 --> 00:43:29,040
Speaker 10: Trump is right. The sanctuary policies have really destroyed the

724
00:43:29,040 --> 00:43:32,400
Speaker 10: infrastructure of law enforcement, created this chaos on the streets.

725
00:43:32,560 --> 00:43:36,280
Speaker 10: The listeners are sick and tired of hearing the propaganda,

726
00:43:36,440 --> 00:43:39,560
Speaker 10: the rhetoric, and the lies. They want Ice to finish

727
00:43:39,880 --> 00:43:42,279
Speaker 10: the job, because we all know eventually they will end.

728
00:43:42,400 --> 00:43:46,040
Speaker 10: They are frustrated with what's happening, and we're all frustrated,

729
00:43:46,120 --> 00:43:48,560
Speaker 10: especially by the loss of life. But they're frustrated. It's

730
00:43:48,600 --> 00:43:50,439
Speaker 10: the fact that none of this, just like I am,

731
00:43:50,960 --> 00:43:53,640
Speaker 10: needs to be happening right now, with the dynamics were

732
00:43:53,680 --> 00:43:56,040
Speaker 10: different and we didn't have these policies put in place

733
00:43:56,080 --> 00:43:58,840
Speaker 10: by the Democrats here in Minnesota.

734
00:43:59,000 --> 00:44:02,920
Speaker 2: You know, I look at these protesters out there, and

735
00:44:02,600 --> 00:44:05,319
Speaker 2: there has been some reporting over the past twenty four

736
00:44:05,360 --> 00:44:08,759
Speaker 2: hours that this is all very well organized and coordinated,

737
00:44:09,560 --> 00:44:13,160
Speaker 2: almost as if at some sort of a professional militia.

738
00:44:13,600 --> 00:44:17,000
Speaker 2: Are you hearing that those reports? Can you verify any

739
00:44:17,040 --> 00:44:17,200
Speaker 2: of that?

740
00:44:18,000 --> 00:44:21,319
Speaker 10: Yes, So what's basically happened is because of things this

741
00:44:21,360 --> 00:44:24,000
Speaker 10: has been going on for so many weeks, You've actually

742
00:44:24,080 --> 00:44:26,080
Speaker 10: been able to watch. I've been able to watch just

743
00:44:26,120 --> 00:44:27,799
Speaker 10: because of the nature of what you and I both do.

744
00:44:27,920 --> 00:44:29,840
Speaker 10: You know, we've follow this stuff on a daily basis,

745
00:44:29,880 --> 00:44:32,319
Speaker 10: and so you can see this transpire. I've been able

746
00:44:32,360 --> 00:44:37,040
Speaker 10: to watch how the protest movement has evolved. It started

747
00:44:37,040 --> 00:44:39,919
Speaker 10: off really at the local level. You had a lot

748
00:44:39,920 --> 00:44:43,120
Speaker 10: of just a lot of single white males, I mean,

749
00:44:43,120 --> 00:44:46,560
Speaker 10: excuse me, a single liberal white female that were out

750
00:44:46,600 --> 00:44:48,560
Speaker 10: there protesting, and this is what, of course led to

751
00:44:48,600 --> 00:44:52,280
Speaker 10: the Renee Good tragedy that took place. You had average

752
00:44:52,320 --> 00:44:55,080
Speaker 10: individuals that were kind of going out and watching and observing.

753
00:44:55,800 --> 00:44:58,160
Speaker 10: But over time, you've had more and more people coming

754
00:44:58,160 --> 00:45:01,279
Speaker 10: into the state. You've seen this skin more and more organized.

755
00:45:01,520 --> 00:45:06,520
Speaker 10: And on Saturday it was really telling because the people

756
00:45:06,560 --> 00:45:10,480
Speaker 10: on the ground where this recent shooting took place, they

757
00:45:10,520 --> 00:45:13,960
Speaker 10: will tell you firsthand that there were individuals on site

758
00:45:14,120 --> 00:45:18,040
Speaker 10: already in that location before ICE arrived. And that's because

759
00:45:18,480 --> 00:45:22,480
Speaker 10: there is a large contingent of individuals using the signal

760
00:45:22,520 --> 00:45:26,120
Speaker 10: app in these chat rooms, and they've been organizing and

761
00:45:26,160 --> 00:45:29,239
Speaker 10: telling people where to go and set up for when

762
00:45:29,320 --> 00:45:31,640
Speaker 10: ICE arrives. They've actually been getting out ahead of it.

763
00:45:31,719 --> 00:45:32,600
Speaker 11: So this is.

764
00:45:32,600 --> 00:45:37,680
Speaker 10: Morphed into something really dangerous, incredibly organized coming from a

765
00:45:37,680 --> 00:45:40,840
Speaker 10: lot of people outside the state, and there's been independent

766
00:45:40,880 --> 00:45:44,640
Speaker 10: reporting of people that have infiltrated these signal chat groups

767
00:45:44,760 --> 00:45:47,040
Speaker 10: that can prove that this is taking place. And there's

768
00:45:47,080 --> 00:45:49,480
Speaker 10: a lot more that's going to come out about this

769
00:45:49,560 --> 00:45:53,000
Speaker 10: particular angle today and throughout the rest of this week.

770
00:45:53,560 --> 00:45:57,360
Speaker 2: John Justice joining us from Twin Cities Radio. They're in

771
00:45:57,440 --> 00:46:01,200
Speaker 2: the Minneapolis area. You know, John, it's uh, you know,

772
00:46:01,440 --> 00:46:03,560
Speaker 2: and again, it's a horrible thing, a terrible thing that

773
00:46:03,680 --> 00:46:06,239
Speaker 2: happened to this guy. But it just seems to me

774
00:46:06,680 --> 00:46:09,920
Speaker 2: that there are multiple layers here and nobody's wanting to

775
00:46:09,920 --> 00:46:12,440
Speaker 2: talk about that, including a lot of the Republicans on

776
00:46:12,480 --> 00:46:13,280
Speaker 2: the national level.

777
00:46:13,560 --> 00:46:13,759
Speaker 5: You know.

778
00:46:13,800 --> 00:46:17,920
Speaker 2: The reality is this guy inserted himself into an official

779
00:46:17,960 --> 00:46:22,799
Speaker 2: police operation, he tried to obstruct that operation. Then when

780
00:46:22,840 --> 00:46:26,040
Speaker 2: the police tried to take him into custody, he resisted arrest,

781
00:46:26,160 --> 00:46:28,759
Speaker 2: and of course we now know what happens here. My

782
00:46:28,920 --> 00:46:31,960
Speaker 2: concern is the message this is sending to all the

783
00:46:32,000 --> 00:46:35,120
Speaker 2: other protesters out there across America that they have some

784
00:46:35,160 --> 00:46:37,440
Speaker 2: sort of a constitutional rights to get the right to

785
00:46:37,440 --> 00:46:41,160
Speaker 2: get to the faces of these officers well, and have.

786
00:46:41,200 --> 00:46:43,479
Speaker 10: Been encouraged to do so. I mean, you know, about

787
00:46:43,600 --> 00:46:45,400
Speaker 10: a little less than two weeks ago, you had an

788
00:46:45,440 --> 00:46:49,839
Speaker 10: incredibly responsible and reckless speech that Governor Tim Walls gave

789
00:46:49,880 --> 00:46:52,960
Speaker 10: where he told people to continue to go out and

790
00:46:53,160 --> 00:46:56,000
Speaker 10: you know and watch and observe. I mean, he's encouraging

791
00:46:56,080 --> 00:46:58,080
Speaker 10: all the leadership, all the Democrat leadership that has been

792
00:46:58,160 --> 00:47:00,759
Speaker 10: encouraging individuals that team to go out and observed. But

793
00:47:01,320 --> 00:47:04,280
Speaker 10: as we all know, they're not just observing. They're getting

794
00:47:04,320 --> 00:47:07,200
Speaker 10: in the way of law enforcement. And you're right, this

795
00:47:07,360 --> 00:47:10,719
Speaker 10: was another horrific tragedy that took place on Saturday. But

796
00:47:10,840 --> 00:47:13,880
Speaker 10: this individual, you know, at some point he made the

797
00:47:13,920 --> 00:47:17,600
Speaker 10: decision to bundle up, brave the freezing temperatures too. He

798
00:47:17,680 --> 00:47:20,000
Speaker 10: had a right to carry, but he decided to bring

799
00:47:20,040 --> 00:47:24,640
Speaker 10: his firearm with extra magazines and go down and get

800
00:47:24,680 --> 00:47:27,920
Speaker 10: in the way of Ice and Border patrol on their enforcement.

801
00:47:27,960 --> 00:47:30,920
Speaker 10: There's video footage of him before he even came in

802
00:47:30,960 --> 00:47:33,320
Speaker 10: contact with them. He's standing in the middle of the street,

803
00:47:33,600 --> 00:47:37,640
Speaker 10: breaking the law, obstructing traffic. And even if this turns

804
00:47:37,680 --> 00:47:41,400
Speaker 10: out once the investigation is done regarding this shooting, you know,

805
00:47:41,440 --> 00:47:44,239
Speaker 10: because it's a really messy situation and the videos up

806
00:47:44,320 --> 00:47:46,399
Speaker 10: to sort of get to exactly what happened, I leave

807
00:47:46,440 --> 00:47:49,560
Speaker 10: that up to the Second Amendment experts, and you know

808
00:47:49,960 --> 00:47:51,680
Speaker 10: those that know better than I do to go and

809
00:47:51,719 --> 00:47:53,719
Speaker 10: figure that out. So let's just say for the sake

810
00:47:53,760 --> 00:47:56,840
Speaker 10: of argument that it was a bad shoot. It doesn't

811
00:47:56,960 --> 00:47:58,600
Speaker 10: change the dynamics of what.

812
00:47:58,520 --> 00:47:59,160
Speaker 12: ICE is doing.

813
00:47:59,239 --> 00:48:02,000
Speaker 10: I seem to cont to do what needs to be done,

814
00:48:02,080 --> 00:48:04,880
Speaker 10: and people would not be getting injured if they just

815
00:48:05,040 --> 00:48:05,839
Speaker 10: stayed home.

816
00:48:07,080 --> 00:48:10,360
Speaker 2: It's it's really that simple, right real quick before we

817
00:48:10,440 --> 00:48:13,080
Speaker 2: let you go, John, and we just so appreciate all

818
00:48:13,120 --> 00:48:16,279
Speaker 2: the great, great work you guys are doing out there

819
00:48:16,400 --> 00:48:19,400
Speaker 2: and giving the rank and file, the general Joe blow

820
00:48:19,680 --> 00:48:23,279
Speaker 2: citizens of Minneapolis a voice in all of this. I'm

821
00:48:23,360 --> 00:48:26,520
Speaker 2: just curious what are the local saying about the level

822
00:48:26,520 --> 00:48:29,480
Speaker 2: of fraud that they always know the fraud existed. Is

823
00:48:29,520 --> 00:48:31,600
Speaker 2: this a shock to the people there, and what do

824
00:48:31,640 --> 00:48:33,120
Speaker 2: they want to see the administration do.

825
00:48:34,120 --> 00:48:36,400
Speaker 10: Well, there's a lot of frustration right now because you know,

826
00:48:36,440 --> 00:48:39,080
Speaker 10: people think that this is all, you know, burying the fraud.

827
00:48:39,680 --> 00:48:43,160
Speaker 10: I'm not concerned because there's investigations going on that have

828
00:48:43,239 --> 00:48:46,839
Speaker 10: exposed more fraud. Even when these ICE operations end up

829
00:48:47,880 --> 00:48:50,319
Speaker 10: end up coming to an end. We've known that there

830
00:48:50,360 --> 00:48:53,799
Speaker 10: has been fraud in these various social service programs for

831
00:48:53,880 --> 00:48:57,040
Speaker 10: a long time. We just did not know the extent

832
00:48:57,480 --> 00:48:59,800
Speaker 10: and the details of how it was, how it was

833
00:49:00,040 --> 00:49:03,399
Speaker 10: being conducted. Now we know that. Now we know it's

834
00:49:03,480 --> 00:49:06,960
Speaker 10: the billions of dollars, and people here in Minnesota are

835
00:49:07,040 --> 00:49:09,640
Speaker 10: fed up. This is our tax dollars, you know, in

836
00:49:09,719 --> 00:49:13,440
Speaker 10: a state where we're already taxed statypicate, and this is

837
00:49:13,480 --> 00:49:15,760
Speaker 10: going to have I know, people are focused on ice

838
00:49:16,080 --> 00:49:18,440
Speaker 10: and everybody thinks this is going to impact, you know,

839
00:49:18,480 --> 00:49:21,239
Speaker 10: the elections later this year. But just wait, Brad's going

840
00:49:21,320 --> 00:49:23,799
Speaker 10: to be back center stage and this is going to

841
00:49:23,840 --> 00:49:27,040
Speaker 10: be the defining moment in this election later on this

842
00:49:27,160 --> 00:49:29,160
Speaker 10: year here in Minnesota, and I think as this gets

843
00:49:29,160 --> 00:49:31,520
Speaker 10: revealed around the country, it will as well. But people

844
00:49:31,560 --> 00:49:35,239
Speaker 10: in Minnesota, regardless of political affiliation, are fed up with

845
00:49:35,280 --> 00:49:37,799
Speaker 10: the fraud and they want something done about it, which

846
00:49:37,840 --> 00:49:41,480
Speaker 10: means they want people held accountable, especially at the highest levels,

847
00:49:41,600 --> 00:49:43,920
Speaker 10: if they knew what was going on, and it certainly

848
00:49:44,239 --> 00:49:45,319
Speaker 10: is starting to compare that way.

849
00:49:45,440 --> 00:49:48,239
Speaker 2: All right, well, John, we really do appreciate your time

850
00:49:48,280 --> 00:49:50,959
Speaker 2: with us today. Good luck to you, my friend.

851
00:49:51,000 --> 00:49:52,440
Speaker 10: Thank you so much for having me anytime.

852
00:49:52,520 --> 00:49:55,920
Speaker 2: All right, good guy, right there, John, Justics on the airwaves.

853
00:49:56,040 --> 00:50:02,640
Speaker 2: They're in Minneapolis. Saint Paul. By the way, the guy's father,

854
00:50:02,880 --> 00:50:07,719
Speaker 2: the male nurse. His father did an interview with the

855
00:50:07,800 --> 00:50:12,400
Speaker 2: Associated Press and the father says, well, you know, we

856
00:50:12,600 --> 00:50:14,840
Speaker 2: told him. He told us that he was going to

857
00:50:14,880 --> 00:50:17,320
Speaker 2: go down there, and we told him, you got to

858
00:50:17,360 --> 00:50:20,960
Speaker 2: be careful, don't go overboard, don't you know, get into

859
00:50:21,000 --> 00:50:24,640
Speaker 2: a fight with ice agents. So clearly the family knew

860
00:50:24,960 --> 00:50:28,799
Speaker 2: that this guy was a hothead and was going to

861
00:50:28,840 --> 00:50:32,239
Speaker 2: do something. Now here's the other part of this. Did

862
00:50:32,280 --> 00:50:35,960
Speaker 2: you know that in some states there is actually there

863
00:50:35,960 --> 00:50:41,120
Speaker 2: are actually mandatory disclosure rules. So if let's just say

864
00:50:41,160 --> 00:50:44,839
Speaker 2: that you are detained by police, or you come into

865
00:50:44,920 --> 00:50:49,440
Speaker 2: contact with the police, you immediately upon contact have to say, officer,

866
00:50:50,200 --> 00:50:55,359
Speaker 2: I have a concealed carry license and I have a

867
00:50:55,400 --> 00:50:59,080
Speaker 2: weapon on my person, and you're actually required to disclose that.

868
00:51:00,880 --> 00:51:06,000
Speaker 2: In Minnesota you are not. So again, going back to

869
00:51:06,800 --> 00:51:10,200
Speaker 2: the facts as they are laid out for us, this

870
00:51:10,280 --> 00:51:13,400
Speaker 2: guy would have been alive had he not attacked police.

871
00:51:13,960 --> 00:51:18,400
Speaker 2: It's it's really that simple, all right. Meanwhile, there's another

872
00:51:18,480 --> 00:51:20,920
Speaker 2: component to all of this, and I know Second Amendment

873
00:51:21,000 --> 00:51:26,480
Speaker 2: folks are up in arms, pardon the pun. FBI director

874
00:51:26,560 --> 00:51:30,719
Speaker 2: Cash Betel announced yesterday that you are not allowed to

875
00:51:30,960 --> 00:51:36,160
Speaker 2: bring firearms to a protest. Here's what Cash Betel said.

876
00:51:36,160 --> 00:51:39,400
Speaker 2: This is a direct quote on Yes, Fox News, ladies

877
00:51:39,400 --> 00:51:43,680
Speaker 2: and gentlemen, Fox News, you cannot bring a firearm loaded

878
00:51:43,800 --> 00:51:47,200
Speaker 2: with multiple magazines to any sort of protest that you want.

879
00:51:47,280 --> 00:51:50,880
Speaker 2: It's that simple. You don't have that right to break

880
00:51:50,920 --> 00:51:55,840
Speaker 2: the law and incite violence. Now, as far as we know,

881
00:51:56,320 --> 00:52:01,400
Speaker 2: the nurse was a legal gun owner, and carrying a

882
00:52:01,440 --> 00:52:06,080
Speaker 2: handgun is in fact legal in Minnesota. The Minnesota Gun

883
00:52:06,120 --> 00:52:10,439
Speaker 2: Owner's Caucus said Patel's statement was completely incorrect on Minnesota law.

884
00:52:11,080 --> 00:52:14,040
Speaker 2: So I'm just curious, are you in agreement here or

885
00:52:14,080 --> 00:52:18,160
Speaker 2: disagreement with your FBI director Cash Battel, who now says

886
00:52:18,239 --> 00:52:21,000
Speaker 2: it's illegal to bring a firearm to any sort of

887
00:52:21,040 --> 00:52:23,640
Speaker 2: a protest. By the way, our telephone number nine oh

888
00:52:23,640 --> 00:52:26,640
Speaker 2: one two six zero five to nine two six. That's

889
00:52:26,719 --> 00:52:29,200
Speaker 2: nine oh one two six zero five, nine two six.

890
00:52:29,280 --> 00:52:41,839
Speaker 2: This is the to Star show, all right, Our good

891
00:52:41,880 --> 00:52:46,840
Speaker 2: buddy Man Felasquez Patriot Talk nine twenty and Lord Willing.

892
00:52:47,000 --> 00:52:51,080
Speaker 2: I'm supposed to be in Houston for a big speech tomorrow.

893
00:52:51,320 --> 00:52:54,400
Speaker 2: We're gonna have a great luncheon with the village Republican ladies,

894
00:52:55,320 --> 00:53:01,360
Speaker 2: Lord Willing, because the roads in Memphis are insane. Apparently

895
00:53:01,719 --> 00:53:06,160
Speaker 2: we don't gosh what the storm ended Sunday. All of

896
00:53:06,239 --> 00:53:10,840
Speaker 2: the roads are barely passable, are barely well. They're not passable,

897
00:53:10,960 --> 00:53:15,880
Speaker 2: they're impassable. It's not good. I've got And here's what

898
00:53:16,000 --> 00:53:19,359
Speaker 2: gets me if I can just just take a break

899
00:53:19,400 --> 00:53:22,360
Speaker 2: from Minnesota for this a second. So any of they said, Steinge,

900
00:53:22,400 --> 00:53:24,239
Speaker 2: what you got to do is put out the ice melt.

901
00:53:24,600 --> 00:53:26,640
Speaker 2: So I went down to the hardware story and we

902
00:53:26,719 --> 00:53:30,359
Speaker 2: got like five giant bags of ice melt. Spent all

903
00:53:30,440 --> 00:53:34,839
Speaker 2: day Friday after the NEWSMAC show putting down the ice melt.

904
00:53:35,160 --> 00:53:40,239
Speaker 2: Came here Saturday and the ice melt was there. Unfortunately

905
00:53:40,280 --> 00:53:42,560
Speaker 2: it was under about an inch or so of ice.

906
00:53:43,880 --> 00:53:46,400
Speaker 2: And then got here this morning and I don't know,

907
00:53:46,480 --> 00:53:52,719
Speaker 2: it's about wow, seven inches of frozen ice. And the

908
00:53:52,760 --> 00:53:55,520
Speaker 2: way the wind was blowing it blew. It made like

909
00:53:55,560 --> 00:53:58,319
Speaker 2: a hill to get into the door. We literally had

910
00:53:58,360 --> 00:54:01,880
Speaker 2: to like use I don't like rock climbing gear to

911
00:54:01,920 --> 00:54:04,240
Speaker 2: get into the building today. I mean, that's how crazy

912
00:54:04,239 --> 00:54:08,280
Speaker 2: it is out there. All that to say, I really

913
00:54:08,280 --> 00:54:12,000
Speaker 2: do hope that I'm in Houston tomorrow. If I can

914
00:54:12,000 --> 00:54:12,680
Speaker 2: get to the airport.

915
00:54:12,880 --> 00:54:13,360
Speaker 6: It took me.

916
00:54:13,800 --> 00:54:16,319
Speaker 2: Normally it takes so much ten minutes to get to

917
00:54:16,480 --> 00:54:21,080
Speaker 2: the ur palatial bunker studios here in the East Memphis.

918
00:54:21,360 --> 00:54:26,680
Speaker 2: It took me like an hour fifteen minutes to get there. Crazy,

919
00:54:27,719 --> 00:54:29,360
Speaker 2: all right, So I hope you all that is, I

920
00:54:29,360 --> 00:54:31,680
Speaker 2: hope you guys are doing well wherever you are. And

921
00:54:31,719 --> 00:54:34,720
Speaker 2: if you're snowed in, nine oh one two six zero

922
00:54:34,800 --> 00:54:37,200
Speaker 2: five nine two six are telephone number, that's nine oh

923
00:54:37,200 --> 00:54:40,719
Speaker 2: one two six zero five nine two six. Anyway, Velasquez

924
00:54:40,800 --> 00:54:44,960
Speaker 2: getting back to his comment, he's a big gun owners guy,

925
00:54:45,000 --> 00:54:48,959
Speaker 2: big Second Amendment radio station down in Houston. He said, Hey,

926
00:54:49,080 --> 00:54:52,120
Speaker 2: Todd Cash Bettel spoke at the Gun Owners of America

927
00:54:52,200 --> 00:54:54,759
Speaker 2: convention in twenty twenty four and was supposed to be

928
00:54:54,800 --> 00:54:59,040
Speaker 2: the gun owner's friend. Patel and Bondi both seem to

929
00:54:59,160 --> 00:55:03,239
Speaker 2: now be the anti gun choices. You know, that is

930
00:55:03,280 --> 00:55:07,120
Speaker 2: a very interesting observation of Gun Owners of America releasing

931
00:55:07,160 --> 00:55:09,719
Speaker 2: the statement as well, saying we are saddened by the

932
00:55:09,760 --> 00:55:13,440
Speaker 2: loss of life in Minneapolis. Because details remain limited and

933
00:55:13,480 --> 00:55:17,120
Speaker 2: facts still emerging, it is essential the Justice Department conduct

934
00:55:17,160 --> 00:55:20,880
Speaker 2: to complete, transparent and prompt investigation. So the public can

935
00:55:20,880 --> 00:55:24,279
Speaker 2: fully understand what occurred and maintain confidence in the rule

936
00:55:24,280 --> 00:55:29,480
Speaker 2: of law. Furthermore, we condemn the untoward comments of the

937
00:55:29,680 --> 00:55:34,799
Speaker 2: US Attorney. Federal agents are not highly likely to be

938
00:55:34,920 --> 00:55:39,600
Speaker 2: legally justified in shooting concealed carry licensees who approach while

939
00:55:39,680 --> 00:55:43,600
Speaker 2: lawfully carrying a firearm. The Second Amendment protects Americans right

940
00:55:43,680 --> 00:55:47,200
Speaker 2: to bear arms while protesting, a right the federal government

941
00:55:47,320 --> 00:55:52,960
Speaker 2: must not infringe upon. Finally, the left must stop antagonizing

942
00:55:53,080 --> 00:55:56,640
Speaker 2: Ice and Border Patrol agents who are taking criminals off

943
00:55:56,680 --> 00:56:00,719
Speaker 2: the streets and play a crucial role in protecting communities

944
00:56:01,200 --> 00:56:06,279
Speaker 2: and upholding the rule of law. And by the way,

945
00:56:06,400 --> 00:56:12,680
Speaker 2: the US Attorney for the Central District of California says,

946
00:56:12,680 --> 00:56:15,600
Speaker 2: if you approach law enforcement with a gun, there is

947
00:56:15,640 --> 00:56:18,600
Speaker 2: a high likelihood they will be legally justified in shooting.

948
00:56:18,640 --> 00:56:22,440
Speaker 2: You don't do it, well, that is simply incorrect. Unless

949
00:56:22,520 --> 00:56:27,080
Speaker 2: you're actually pointing the weapon at the ICE agent, then

950
00:56:27,160 --> 00:56:29,880
Speaker 2: you're probably going to get shot. But you do have

951
00:56:29,960 --> 00:56:33,440
Speaker 2: a constitutional right to legally carry at any sort of

952
00:56:33,480 --> 00:56:39,000
Speaker 2: a protest. It's really that simple. And for Cashpttel to

953
00:56:39,040 --> 00:56:41,400
Speaker 2: come out and say something like that is as the

954
00:56:41,520 --> 00:56:44,960
Speaker 2: FBI director either he is ignorant of the law or

955
00:56:45,000 --> 00:56:48,040
Speaker 2: he doesn't really care and either one of those is

956
00:56:48,440 --> 00:56:52,080
Speaker 2: It's not a good look right now for the administration. Wow,

957
00:56:52,120 --> 00:56:55,520
Speaker 2: what a mess the Justice Department is. You know, I

958
00:56:55,600 --> 00:56:58,640
Speaker 2: am curious. Does Pambondi need to go? Is that is

959
00:56:58,680 --> 00:57:02,480
Speaker 2: it the time? Is it time to say bye bye Pamponti?

960
00:57:02,760 --> 00:57:06,680
Speaker 2: Do we need new leadership in the Justice Department? Nine

961
00:57:06,719 --> 00:57:09,120
Speaker 2: oh one two six zero five nine two six hour

962
00:57:09,160 --> 00:57:12,640
Speaker 2: telephone number. That's nine oh one two six zero five

963
00:57:12,760 --> 00:57:17,200
Speaker 2: nine two six. And just remember that it's Governor Waltz,

964
00:57:17,800 --> 00:57:21,880
Speaker 2: the Minneapolis Mayor, Jacob Fry, the Lieutenant governor, all Democrats

965
00:57:22,080 --> 00:57:25,760
Speaker 2: who have encouraged these left wing agitators to go out

966
00:57:25,760 --> 00:57:28,280
Speaker 2: there and break the law in the first place. All right,

967
00:57:28,360 --> 00:57:54,560
Speaker 2: got to take a break. This is the Todd Stern Show. Well,

968

Speaker 2: That's nine oh one two six zero five, nine two six.

981
00:58:43,040 --> 00:58:45,600
Speaker 2: You know what I find interesting is that the Minneapolis

982
00:58:45,640 --> 00:58:48,360
Speaker 2: police chief, a guy by the name of Brian O'Hara.

983
00:58:48,560 --> 00:58:52,120
Speaker 2: This guy is actually saying the quiet part out loud.

984
00:58:52,240 --> 00:58:55,560
Speaker 2: It doesn't really matter what the investigations say, right, it

985
00:58:55,600 --> 00:58:59,200
Speaker 2: doesn't matter what the facts are. They've got a narrative

986
00:58:59,200 --> 00:59:02,040
Speaker 2: and they're sticking two. It got number three plays.

987
00:59:01,880 --> 00:59:04,680
Speaker 17: From what you have seen in the public space and

988
00:59:04,800 --> 00:59:08,360
Speaker 17: heard from federal officials, is there any evidence that you

989
00:59:08,720 --> 00:59:11,640
Speaker 17: know of that Preddi was assaulting the federal officers as

990
00:59:11,880 --> 00:59:15,960
Speaker 17: the Border Patrol chief claims, Well, I've.

991
00:59:15,840 --> 00:59:18,880
Speaker 18: Seen the videos, just as thousands of people around the

992
00:59:18,880 --> 00:59:22,600
Speaker 18: country have, and the videos speak for themselves. I think

993
00:59:22,680 --> 00:59:27,160
Speaker 18: it's deeply concerning the things that are being said. This

994
00:59:27,240 --> 00:59:31,280
Speaker 18: is an individual that was a city resident. It appears

995
00:59:31,360 --> 00:59:35,200
Speaker 18: that he was present exercising his First Amendment rights to

996
00:59:35,280 --> 00:59:39,760
Speaker 18: record law enforcement activity and also exercising his Second Amendment

997
00:59:39,840 --> 00:59:43,600
Speaker 18: rights to lawfully be armed in a public space in

998
00:59:43,640 --> 00:59:48,640
Speaker 18: the city. So I think very obviously there are serious

999
00:59:48,720 --> 00:59:51,120
Speaker 18: questions that are being raised, and I think the greater

1000
00:59:51,280 --> 00:59:55,440
Speaker 18: issue is, even if there is an investigation that ultimately

1001
00:59:55,600 --> 00:59:58,440
Speaker 18: proves that at the time of the shooting it was

1002
00:59:58,560 --> 01:00:02,000
Speaker 18: legally justified, I don't think that even matters at this point,

1003
01:00:02,040 --> 01:00:05,240
Speaker 18: because they're just there is so much outrage and concern

1004
01:00:05,360 --> 01:00:06,960
Speaker 18: around what is happening in the city.

1005
01:00:07,880 --> 01:00:10,440
Speaker 17: What do you mean it doesn't matter at this point?

1006
01:00:10,720 --> 01:00:14,360
Speaker 17: You mean the situation on the ground is already the

1007
01:00:14,360 --> 01:00:15,280
Speaker 17: impression is left.

1008
01:00:16,200 --> 01:00:19,439
Speaker 18: People have had enough. This is the third shooting now

1009
01:00:19,520 --> 01:00:22,960
Speaker 18: in less than three weeks. The Minneapolis Police Department went

1010
01:00:23,040 --> 01:00:27,240
Speaker 18: the entire year last year recovering about nine hundred guns

1011
01:00:27,240 --> 01:00:31,200
Speaker 18: from the street, arresting hundreds and hundreds of violent offenders,

1012
01:00:31,240 --> 01:00:33,920
Speaker 18: and we didn't shoot anyone. And now this is the

1013
01:00:33,960 --> 01:00:37,560
Speaker 18: second American citizen that's been killed. It's the third shooting

1014
01:00:37,600 --> 01:00:42,720
Speaker 18: within three weeks. People have been speaking out saying that

1015
01:00:42,800 --> 01:00:45,680
Speaker 18: this was going to happen again, and I think everyone

1016
01:00:45,760 --> 01:00:50,360
Speaker 18: is kind of waiting for folks on both sides to

1017
01:00:50,440 --> 01:00:53,120
Speaker 18: come together and just figure this thing out. This is

1018
01:00:53,200 --> 01:00:57,680
Speaker 18: not sustainable. This police department has only six hundred police officers.

1019
01:00:58,000 --> 01:01:02,760
Speaker 18: We are stretched incredibly thin, taking an enormous toll trying

1020
01:01:02,800 --> 01:01:05,840
Speaker 18: to manage all of this chaos on top of having

1021
01:01:05,920 --> 01:01:08,600
Speaker 18: to be the police department for a major city. It's

1022
01:01:08,600 --> 01:01:10,600
Speaker 18: too much, all right.

1023
01:01:10,880 --> 01:01:14,680
Speaker 2: So that's the police chief in Minneapolis. I want you

1024
01:01:14,760 --> 01:01:18,600
Speaker 2: to hear Sheriff Grady Judd. He's a sheriff in Florida,

1025
01:01:18,720 --> 01:01:21,840
Speaker 2: and I want you to hear his take on a

1026
01:01:22,000 --> 01:01:23,920
Speaker 2: very similar situation. Cut seven.

1027
01:01:24,440 --> 01:01:28,560
Speaker 4: Hello, I'm Sheriff Grady Judd. I've spent my entire adult

1028
01:01:28,640 --> 01:01:34,080
Speaker 4: life in law enforcement, and I have never heard of

1029
01:01:34,160 --> 01:01:38,680
Speaker 4: one law enforcement agency not helping another when they call

1030
01:01:38,800 --> 01:01:43,320
Speaker 4: for help. Until this weekend when a chief of patrol

1031
01:01:43,840 --> 01:01:48,880
Speaker 4: where the Chicago Police Department instricted the police officers not

1032
01:01:49,080 --> 01:01:53,360
Speaker 4: to run in and help their colleagues who were calling

1033
01:01:53,400 --> 01:01:56,760
Speaker 4: for help, who were under attack by a bunch of

1034
01:01:57,240 --> 01:02:03,280
Speaker 4: people clearly violating the law. That's scary. Let me give

1035
01:02:03,320 --> 01:02:06,480
Speaker 4: you the antithesis of that. We had a single man

1036
01:02:07,840 --> 01:02:11,760
Speaker 4: resists Ice agents and get away from them in our community.

1037
01:02:12,760 --> 01:02:18,840
Speaker 4: We sent a helicopter, a drone canine, and fifty law

1038
01:02:18,960 --> 01:02:22,920
Speaker 4: enforcement officers to surround an area and we found that

1039
01:02:23,120 --> 01:02:27,760
Speaker 4: guy who violently resisted ice, and we locked him up

1040
01:02:28,560 --> 01:02:32,080
Speaker 4: in jail where he should have been. If you allow

1041
01:02:32,280 --> 01:02:38,800
Speaker 4: anarchists and criminals to run wild in your community, people

1042
01:02:38,840 --> 01:02:43,720
Speaker 4: will die, people will be shocked. Now, let me say

1043
01:02:43,760 --> 01:02:48,280
Speaker 4: this for other law enforcement leaders across this state and nation.

1044
01:02:48,800 --> 01:02:51,880
Speaker 4: You need to be standing up saying the same exact

1045
01:02:52,080 --> 01:02:55,880
Speaker 4: thing that I am. Because when you have a breakdown

1046
01:02:56,080 --> 01:03:02,439
Speaker 4: of the rule of law, when you allow anarchist criminals

1047
01:03:02,960 --> 01:03:07,000
Speaker 4: to take over the streets and attack law enforcement officers

1048
01:03:07,320 --> 01:03:12,280
Speaker 4: and then not send them help, that's a slippery slope,

1049
01:03:12,560 --> 01:03:14,640
Speaker 4: A real slippery slope.

1050
01:03:15,280 --> 01:03:18,960
Speaker 2: Yeah it is. And I look that's the difference between

1051
01:03:19,200 --> 01:03:22,520
Speaker 2: law and order and anarchy right there by the way.

1052
01:03:22,560 --> 01:03:26,800
Speaker 2: Governor Ron DeSantis in Florida says that state police are

1053
01:03:26,920 --> 01:03:31,400
Speaker 2: under orders to round up illegal alien drivers A cut

1054
01:03:31,480 --> 01:03:35,480
Speaker 2: number eleven plays. We grieve the death, I'm sorry.

1055
01:03:36,560 --> 01:03:39,840
Speaker 19: The other thing that we've done is, yeah, I mean,

1056
01:03:39,880 --> 01:03:43,280
Speaker 19: if you have somebody illegally driving on the roads and

1057
01:03:43,320 --> 01:03:46,680
Speaker 19: they have a license, our highway patrol we'll find that

1058
01:03:47,040 --> 01:03:50,320
Speaker 19: and then turn them over to DHS. Obviously you do that.

1059
01:03:50,400 --> 01:03:53,920
Speaker 19: You have a criminal alien leaves prison, will tell DHS,

1060
01:03:53,960 --> 01:03:55,760
Speaker 19: they come pick them up, and then they send them

1061
01:03:55,800 --> 01:03:59,560
Speaker 19: home to their country. You got to do that. Enforcement matters,

1062
01:03:59,760 --> 01:04:03,560
Speaker 19: but you also can help solve this problem by removing

1063
01:04:04,080 --> 01:04:07,600
Speaker 19: incentives to come and stay illegally. So we've done things

1064
01:04:07,680 --> 01:04:10,800
Speaker 19: like employment verification in Florida. You verify.

1065
01:04:12,080 --> 01:04:15,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, good for you, Good for you, governor. And that's

1066
01:04:15,760 --> 01:04:18,800
Speaker 2: the way it ought to be, really surely. So anyway,

1067
01:04:19,400 --> 01:04:22,560
Speaker 2: we'll keep you updated on all these developments. But the latest,

1068
01:04:22,560 --> 01:04:27,760
Speaker 2: Tom Holman has been dispatched to Minneapolis to clean up

1069
01:04:27,840 --> 01:04:31,840
Speaker 2: this mess and try to get the administration back on track.

1070
01:04:32,720 --> 01:04:34,840
Speaker 2: But hear me on this, folks.

1071
01:04:35,000 --> 01:04:35,360
Speaker 3: Look, the.

1072
01:04:37,160 --> 01:04:41,680
Speaker 2: Administration is doing a great job here overall. I mean,

1073
01:04:41,720 --> 01:04:44,600
Speaker 2: when you look at the numbers, the American people support

1074
01:04:44,720 --> 01:04:48,200
Speaker 2: the efforts of ICE to deport all of these very

1075
01:04:48,320 --> 01:04:54,200
Speaker 2: bad and dangerous people. So the only issue from my

1076
01:04:54,320 --> 01:04:57,040
Speaker 2: vantage point is the narrative coming out of the White House.

1077
01:04:57,400 --> 01:04:59,760
Speaker 2: And the problem is everybody wants to be the next

1078
01:05:00,000 --> 01:05:02,840
Speaker 2: Donald Trump and that in that administration, so they get

1079
01:05:02,880 --> 01:05:08,400
Speaker 2: out there and they use the charged rhetoric and the

1080
01:05:08,440 --> 01:05:14,040
Speaker 2: outlandish statements and the hyperbole. That doesn't work for anybody

1081
01:05:14,120 --> 01:05:15,960
Speaker 2: except for one guy, and that is Donald J.

1082
01:05:16,080 --> 01:05:16,440
Speaker 6: Trump.

1083
01:05:17,480 --> 01:05:20,480
Speaker 2: Your job is to not upstage the boss, and that's

1084
01:05:20,520 --> 01:05:24,560
Speaker 2: what's happening here. And it just seems to me somebody

1085
01:05:24,600 --> 01:05:27,640
Speaker 2: at that White House, and this may have actually happened

1086
01:05:27,640 --> 01:05:29,800
Speaker 2: this morning, somebody at the White House needs to call

1087
01:05:29,840 --> 01:05:33,040
Speaker 2: Pam Bondi and say, nobody else goes on Fox News

1088
01:05:33,120 --> 01:05:39,000
Speaker 2: channel nobody because it's we're getting reports that they're shutting

1089
01:05:39,040 --> 01:05:42,600
Speaker 2: down all interviews today coming out of DHS as well

1090
01:05:42,640 --> 01:05:46,360
Speaker 2: as the DOJ. So we'll see how long that lasts.

1091
01:05:46,480 --> 01:05:49,560
Speaker 2: But that would tell me that they're not happy with

1092
01:05:49,560 --> 01:05:51,880
Speaker 2: with what Pam Bondi is doing. Can you imagine poor

1093
01:05:51,920 --> 01:05:54,520
Speaker 2: Donald Trump. He's got all these other issues that he's

1094
01:05:54,520 --> 01:05:56,680
Speaker 2: dealing with, and now he has to step into this

1095
01:05:56,840 --> 01:06:00,480
Speaker 2: mess that was created by his own Cabinet secret Terry's

1096
01:06:01,360 --> 01:06:04,720
Speaker 2: and I don't think that's right. Nine oh one two

1097
01:06:04,800 --> 01:06:08,440
Speaker 2: six zero five nine two six our telephone number. So

1098
01:06:08,600 --> 01:06:12,400
Speaker 2: the attorney. So the church, remember the church in Saint Paul, Minnesota,

1099
01:06:13,000 --> 01:06:16,600
Speaker 2: So they've got themselves an attorney now and the pastor

1100
01:06:16,640 --> 01:06:20,640
Speaker 2: of this church is speaking out doing interviews uh, saying

1101
01:06:20,720 --> 01:06:25,080
Speaker 2: that they want people held accountable for what happened in

1102
01:06:25,200 --> 01:06:27,240
Speaker 2: their church. And I don't blame them one bit. Let's

1103
01:06:27,240 --> 01:06:29,760
Speaker 2: take a let's take a listen to mister Wardlaw, the

1104
01:06:29,840 --> 01:06:37,479
Speaker 2: attorney representing the church from from the NEWSMAC show Ward Law. First,

1105
01:06:37,560 --> 01:06:40,680
Speaker 2: what's your reaction here? We've got three people arrested. Seems

1106
01:06:40,720 --> 01:06:42,960
Speaker 2: to me a lot more folks ought to be in jail.

1107
01:06:43,080 --> 01:06:44,800
Speaker 2: But so far so good.

1108
01:06:45,400 --> 01:06:47,440
Speaker 20: Yes, and thanks for having me on, Todd. Absolutely, so

1109
01:06:47,480 --> 01:06:49,320
Speaker 20: far so good. We'll hope that we hope that there

1110
01:06:49,360 --> 01:06:52,280
Speaker 20: will be more arrests. You know, those agitators who invaded

1111
01:06:52,320 --> 01:06:55,280
Speaker 20: Cities Church in Saint Paul, they really shattered its peace

1112
01:06:55,680 --> 01:06:59,240
Speaker 20: and they intimidated and terrorized its members, preventing them from

1113
01:06:59,280 --> 01:07:01,320
Speaker 20: engaging at worship. And you can see that from their

1114
01:07:01,360 --> 01:07:05,560
Speaker 20: own videos from the invasion and then interviews afterwards. The

1115
01:07:05,600 --> 01:07:08,800
Speaker 20: agitators have essentially confessed their guilt, including Don lemon N,

1116
01:07:08,880 --> 01:07:11,560
Speaker 20: Kimi Levy Armstrong. They're actually proud of what they did.

1117
01:07:11,760 --> 01:07:14,040
Speaker 20: They're proud of what they did, and their videos show

1118
01:07:14,080 --> 01:07:15,840
Speaker 20: that they broke the law and now they need to

1119
01:07:15,880 --> 01:07:18,160
Speaker 20: be held accountable for their illegal and un American acts

1120
01:07:18,160 --> 01:07:20,000
Speaker 20: and that's what we're talking about here, acts that are

1121
01:07:20,440 --> 01:07:23,000
Speaker 20: un American because the First Amendment protects the right of

1122
01:07:23,040 --> 01:07:25,360
Speaker 20: people to worship God in the way that they see

1123
01:07:25,360 --> 01:07:28,160
Speaker 20: fit peaceably in a church.

1124
01:07:28,320 --> 01:07:31,840
Speaker 2: Or Yeah, Don Lemon, by the way, is now goading

1125
01:07:32,040 --> 01:07:34,360
Speaker 2: the Justice Department to come and get them. Let's take

1126
01:07:34,360 --> 01:07:35,920
Speaker 2: a loosen look.

1127
01:07:36,000 --> 01:07:38,560
Speaker 21: I stand proud and I stand tall. This is not

1128
01:07:38,600 --> 01:07:40,480
Speaker 21: a victory lap for me because it's not over. They're

1129
01:07:40,480 --> 01:07:42,200
Speaker 21: going to try again, and they're going to try again.

1130
01:07:42,360 --> 01:07:46,440
Speaker 21: And guess what here, I am keep trying. That's not

1131
01:07:46,480 --> 01:07:48,000
Speaker 21: going to stop me from being a journalist.

1132
01:07:48,080 --> 01:07:49,840
Speaker 12: None of this is about justice.

1133
01:07:50,560 --> 01:07:54,360
Speaker 21: This is about power, and it's about people who are incompetent.

1134
01:07:56,000 --> 01:07:58,720
Speaker 2: So he's claiming now that one of the reasons he's

1135
01:07:58,800 --> 01:08:00,960
Speaker 2: being targeted is because he he's a gay black man.

1136
01:08:01,000 --> 01:08:04,880
Speaker 2: I would contend he's being targeted because he stormed a church,

1137
01:08:05,240 --> 01:08:08,200
Speaker 2: shut down a worship service, and terrorized women and children.

1138
01:08:08,240 --> 01:08:08,800
Speaker 2: What say you?

1139
01:08:09,560 --> 01:08:10,200
Speaker 5: Exactly right?

1140
01:08:10,640 --> 01:08:13,360
Speaker 20: Don Lemon joined with a group of lawless agitators and

1141
01:08:13,400 --> 01:08:16,840
Speaker 20: he stormed a church. He met with them prior to

1142
01:08:16,920 --> 01:08:19,400
Speaker 20: the incident at another location.

1143
01:08:19,600 --> 01:08:20,479
Speaker 19: He went in to.

1144
01:08:20,640 --> 01:08:24,960
Speaker 20: The church when the agitators kind of executed their plan,

1145
01:08:25,000 --> 01:08:27,639
Speaker 20: if you will, to disrupt the service. They all went

1146
01:08:27,680 --> 01:08:30,760
Speaker 20: in pretending to be worshipers essentially, and then they at

1147
01:08:30,800 --> 01:08:34,320
Speaker 20: a certain predetermined point, they stood up and started screaming

1148
01:08:34,360 --> 01:08:37,120
Speaker 20: and shouting, and Don Lemon was right there to videotape

1149
01:08:37,160 --> 01:08:40,760
Speaker 20: it and to go up to the minister there and

1150
01:08:41,320 --> 01:08:44,519
Speaker 20: ask him questions. And they refused to leave, and children

1151
01:08:44,640 --> 01:08:49,080
Speaker 20: and families were fleeing the sanctuary obstruction of the protesters

1152
01:08:49,080 --> 01:08:52,040
Speaker 20: are obstructing people's exit at certain points. There was just

1153
01:08:52,080 --> 01:08:54,880
Speaker 20: a lot of chaos. It was terrible lawlessness. Contrary to

1154
01:08:54,880 --> 01:08:57,960
Speaker 20: what mister Lemon believes, there is no press pass to

1155
01:08:58,120 --> 01:09:00,879
Speaker 20: invade a sanctuary, or to interfere with the right to worship,

1156
01:09:01,280 --> 01:09:03,439
Speaker 20: or to interfere with folks who are exercising their First

1157
01:09:03,439 --> 01:09:06,640
Speaker 20: Amendment protected rights to worship not in the way they

1158
01:09:06,640 --> 01:09:09,840
Speaker 20: see fit, and to exercise their religion. You don't get

1159
01:09:09,840 --> 01:09:12,000
Speaker 20: to do that. And there's actually a federal law that

1160
01:09:12,040 --> 01:09:15,000
Speaker 20: makes that a crime to face act also a conspiracy

1161
01:09:15,040 --> 01:09:18,360
Speaker 20: against rights, and those federal crimes have been charged against

1162
01:09:18,520 --> 01:09:21,880
Speaker 20: three individuals already. And you know, Don Lemon, the story's

1163
01:09:21,920 --> 01:09:24,200
Speaker 20: not over for him yet. I'm very hopeful that the

1164
01:09:24,280 --> 01:09:26,960
Speaker 20: Justice Department will take further actions, and I believe they

1165
01:09:26,960 --> 01:09:29,760
Speaker 20: probably will or hopefully that they will to call him

1166
01:09:29,760 --> 01:09:31,439
Speaker 20: to account. And they can do that, you know, for example,

1167
01:09:31,439 --> 01:09:34,040
Speaker 20: by convening a Graham jury to indict him. It's another

1168
01:09:34,080 --> 01:09:36,559
Speaker 20: way charges can be brought against him, and I think

1169
01:09:36,600 --> 01:09:37,880
Speaker 20: he will face justice.

1170
01:09:38,560 --> 01:09:41,439
Speaker 2: Here's what concerns me. I think we have to throw

1171
01:09:41,439 --> 01:09:43,960
Speaker 2: the book at all of these folks. Otherwise people are

1172
01:09:43,960 --> 01:09:46,400
Speaker 2: going to think that they have a constitutional right to

1173
01:09:46,439 --> 01:09:49,280
Speaker 2: go in and disrupt church services across the country. And

1174
01:09:49,360 --> 01:09:51,920
Speaker 2: let me just say this, Doug, it's this could have

1175
01:09:51,960 --> 01:09:55,400
Speaker 2: gone south in a very very quick way. Just a

1176
01:09:55,400 --> 01:09:57,479
Speaker 2: couple of months back. You at a Catholic church there

1177
01:09:57,479 --> 01:10:00,360
Speaker 2: in Minneapolis that was shot up. I mean, no one

1178
01:10:00,400 --> 01:10:03,000
Speaker 2: inside that building had any idea what the intent of

1179
01:10:03,000 --> 01:10:04,760
Speaker 2: those rioters were on that day.

1180
01:10:05,560 --> 01:10:07,519
Speaker 20: That's exactly right. It's very important that we make an

1181
01:10:07,560 --> 01:10:09,799
Speaker 20: example here in the city's church. Where honored to represent

1182
01:10:09,960 --> 01:10:12,559
Speaker 20: city's church here to North Legal. They are very concerned

1183
01:10:12,560 --> 01:10:15,160
Speaker 20: to see that nothing, no terrible act like this, no

1184
01:10:15,200 --> 01:10:18,200
Speaker 20: invasion of a church happens ever again in Minnesota or

1185
01:10:18,240 --> 01:10:20,639
Speaker 20: anywhere else in America. It should never happen. Is very

1186
01:10:20,680 --> 01:10:22,920
Speaker 20: important that the first you know, the First Amendment protects

1187
01:10:22,920 --> 01:10:24,920
Speaker 20: the right of people to worship, but it's up to

1188
01:10:24,920 --> 01:10:26,880
Speaker 20: state and federal officials then to make sure that the

1189
01:10:26,880 --> 01:10:30,280
Speaker 20: First Amendment is active. It is not just an empty promise.

1190
01:10:30,479 --> 01:10:32,120
Speaker 20: That's why we have laws like Section two of the

1191
01:10:32,120 --> 01:10:34,479
Speaker 20: Face Act, which makes us a crime to intimidate people

1192
01:10:34,520 --> 01:10:36,760
Speaker 20: and interfere with people who are engaging in worship. You know,

1193
01:10:36,800 --> 01:10:39,200
Speaker 20: there's a provision of that law that also allows US

1194
01:10:39,200 --> 01:10:42,040
Speaker 20: state attorney general to bring a civil lawsuit. So minnesot

1195
01:10:42,040 --> 01:10:44,960
Speaker 20: Attorney General Keith Ellison should be right now announcing his

1196
01:10:45,080 --> 01:10:47,400
Speaker 20: plans to do exactly that. He should be going to

1197
01:10:47,439 --> 01:10:49,200
Speaker 20: the public and saying we're going to bring the lawsuit

1198
01:10:49,240 --> 01:10:52,120
Speaker 20: under the Face Act on behalf of as a state

1199
01:10:52,439 --> 01:10:54,240
Speaker 20: protecting the people. But he's not doing that. He's not

1200
01:10:54,280 --> 01:10:56,120
Speaker 20: doing that. No, he's refusing to do that. Instead, he's

1201
01:10:56,120 --> 01:11:00,800
Speaker 20: siding with the church invaders he's in into Minnesota. And

1202
01:11:00,800 --> 01:11:03,800
Speaker 20: that's what's caused this really to happen, is we've had

1203
01:11:03,800 --> 01:11:07,000
Speaker 20: an environment of chaos in Minnesota because officials like Ellison,

1204
01:11:07,479 --> 01:11:09,920
Speaker 20: like Walls, they're not enforcing the law. They're not standing

1205
01:11:09,960 --> 01:11:13,160
Speaker 20: up to protect the freedoms of Minnesotan's they're inviting in

1206
01:11:13,200 --> 01:11:15,679
Speaker 20: the chaos and lawlessness, even to the point of people

1207
01:11:16,160 --> 01:11:18,720
Speaker 20: entering into a church and intimidating and terrorizing families there.

1208
01:11:18,760 --> 01:11:19,759
Speaker 20: And it really has to stop.

1209
01:11:20,479 --> 01:11:23,040
Speaker 2: Okay, I've got about twenty seconds here. Do you want

1210
01:11:23,040 --> 01:11:25,240
Speaker 2: to see Do you want to see Don Lemon behind

1211
01:11:25,240 --> 01:11:27,080
Speaker 2: bars and all those other folks.

1212
01:11:27,840 --> 01:11:29,800
Speaker 20: Absolutely, that's what we want to see, because we need

1213
01:11:29,840 --> 01:11:33,240
Speaker 20: to set an example so that Americans can can go

1214
01:11:33,280 --> 01:11:36,880
Speaker 20: to church and worship God freely, worship Jesus Christ, our

1215
01:11:36,880 --> 01:11:39,559
Speaker 20: Savior and Lord, and do that without having to fear

1216
01:11:39,800 --> 01:11:42,479
Speaker 20: that someone's going to come into the church and intimidate them,

1217
01:11:42,600 --> 01:11:45,640
Speaker 20: terrorize them, or what have you. That is just unacceptable

1218
01:11:45,760 --> 01:11:46,880
Speaker 20: and on American.

1219
01:11:47,720 --> 01:11:50,640
Speaker 2: All right, and it really is an American and we

1220
01:11:50,720 --> 01:11:53,439
Speaker 2: have got to make sure that these rioters do not

1221
01:11:53,560 --> 01:11:58,240
Speaker 2: start targeting churches around the country. That is just simply unacceptable.

1222
01:11:58,360 --> 01:12:00,679
Speaker 2: All right, We've got to take a quick break. Folks,

1223
01:12:00,760 --> 01:12:03,639
Speaker 2: are telephone number nine oh one two six zero five

1224
01:12:03,800 --> 01:12:07,000
Speaker 2: nine two six. That's nine oh one two six zero five,

1225
01:12:07,120 --> 01:12:09,160
Speaker 2: nine two six. This is the Todd Sterns Show.

1226
01:12:17,200 --> 01:12:17,519
Speaker 16: All right.

1227
01:12:17,560 --> 01:12:20,200
Speaker 2: One of the things that that I'm happy to see here.

1228
01:12:20,920 --> 01:12:24,920
Speaker 2: You've You've got all these folks at Fox News, many

1229
01:12:24,960 --> 01:12:27,600
Speaker 2: of them are not conservatives, and they don't even attempt to,

1230
01:12:27,960 --> 01:12:31,040
Speaker 2: you know, they don't even try to cover it. One

1231
01:12:31,040 --> 01:12:34,240
Speaker 2: of them is Kennedy, who is a regular on the

1232
01:12:34,280 --> 01:12:36,519
Speaker 2: five and that what's the show with all the women?

1233
01:12:37,160 --> 01:12:40,320
Speaker 2: That one lucky guy show. I don't know what is

1234
01:12:40,360 --> 01:12:45,639
Speaker 2: it's called anyway, Harris Faulkner hosted. So so you've got

1235
01:12:45,680 --> 01:12:51,400
Speaker 2: all these folks going after the administration, Peter Doocey, Maria

1236
01:12:51,479 --> 01:12:54,880
Speaker 2: Bartiromo over the weekend. These are not true conservatives, and

1237
01:12:54,920 --> 01:12:59,519
Speaker 2: their colors come out in instances like this when you've

1238
01:12:59,520 --> 01:13:01,759
Speaker 2: got a real stick with it. It is an ugly

1239
01:13:01,800 --> 01:13:04,240
Speaker 2: thing that happened over the weekend, but it was entirely

1240
01:13:04,280 --> 01:13:08,360
Speaker 2: preventable and had nothing to do with federal agencies or officers,

1241
01:13:08,680 --> 01:13:12,080
Speaker 2: and had everything to do with these rioters who are

1242
01:13:12,120 --> 01:13:15,360
Speaker 2: out there disrupting. And I know people are like, don't

1243
01:13:15,360 --> 01:13:18,320
Speaker 2: call that guy a domestic terrorist. I will call him

1244
01:13:18,360 --> 01:13:23,240
Speaker 2: a rioter. The guy intentionally tried to insert himself into

1245
01:13:23,280 --> 01:13:26,600
Speaker 2: the middle of an official police action. He got what

1246
01:13:26,840 --> 01:13:31,439
Speaker 2: he got. And I'm just telling you right now that

1247
01:13:31,560 --> 01:13:35,080
Speaker 2: every single one of those federal agents they're grieving what

1248
01:13:35,320 --> 01:13:38,600
Speaker 2: happened because they don't ever have to shoot anybody, but

1249
01:13:38,680 --> 01:13:40,080
Speaker 2: they want to be able to come home to their

1250
01:13:40,080 --> 01:13:43,280
Speaker 2: families at night. And when you've got a guy attacking

1251
01:13:43,360 --> 01:13:50,120
Speaker 2: police and refusing to follow their commands, okay, play stupid games.

1252
01:13:50,160 --> 01:13:54,120
Speaker 2: You're gonna win stupid prizes again. A terrible tragedy, A

1253
01:13:54,240 --> 01:13:58,480
Speaker 2: terrible tragedy. But what's interesting about these kinds of situations

1254
01:13:58,520 --> 01:14:02,320
Speaker 2: You find out who who really is a conservative and

1255
01:14:02,400 --> 01:14:05,559
Speaker 2: who is faking it? And we get to see all

1256
01:14:05,560 --> 01:14:09,040
Speaker 2: of that play out on our TV screens. By the way,

1257
01:14:09,080 --> 01:14:14,200
Speaker 2: here's Oklahoma's governor, a governor a stint, and he's really

1258
01:14:14,280 --> 01:14:17,759
Speaker 2: upset about all of this. Cut number five Broad Agreement.

1259
01:14:17,800 --> 01:14:21,600
Speaker 2: President Trump closed the border, promised to get violent criminals

1260
01:14:21,640 --> 01:14:23,920
Speaker 2: out of our country, and I think everybody agrees with that.

1261
01:14:24,680 --> 01:14:28,679
Speaker 2: But now Americans are asking themselves what is the endgame,

1262
01:14:29,120 --> 01:14:31,760
Speaker 2: what is the solution? And you know, we believe in

1263
01:14:31,800 --> 01:14:35,559
Speaker 2: federalism and state rights, and nobody likes Feds coming into

1264
01:14:35,640 --> 01:14:36,160
Speaker 2: their state.

1265
01:14:37,080 --> 01:14:39,080
Speaker 22: And so what's the goal right now? Is it to

1266
01:14:39,160 --> 01:14:44,160
Speaker 22: deport every single non US citizen? I don't think that's

1267
01:14:44,200 --> 01:14:47,519
Speaker 22: what Americans want. We have to stop politicizing this. We

1268
01:14:47,600 --> 01:14:51,559
Speaker 22: need real solutions on immigration reform, and I believe that

1269
01:14:51,680 --> 01:14:54,639
Speaker 22: I've got a great solution that we should give the

1270
01:14:54,680 --> 01:14:56,879
Speaker 22: states the authority to do workforce permits.

1271
01:14:56,960 --> 01:14:59,440
Speaker 14: Right, are you saying that they should pull out of Minnesota?

1272
01:15:00,120 --> 01:15:03,080
Speaker 22: Well, I think that the President has to answer that question.

1273
01:15:03,120 --> 01:15:06,080
Speaker 22: He is a deal maker and he's getting bad advice

1274
01:15:06,160 --> 01:15:08,479
Speaker 22: right now. The President needs to let the American people

1275
01:15:08,520 --> 01:15:11,800
Speaker 22: what is the solution? How do we bring this to conclusion?

1276
01:15:12,280 --> 01:15:15,200
Speaker 22: And I think only the President can answer that question

1277
01:15:15,800 --> 01:15:19,960
Speaker 22: because it's complicated. We have to enforce federal laws, but

1278
01:15:20,000 --> 01:15:21,600
Speaker 22: we need to know what is the endgame. And I

1279
01:15:21,640 --> 01:15:25,320
Speaker 22: don't think it's to deport every single non US citizen.

1280
01:15:27,800 --> 01:15:32,040
Speaker 2: Well, that's exactly what we want that. Look, the Republicans

1281
01:15:32,160 --> 01:15:35,280
Speaker 2: need to pay very close attention here. Listen up, Republicans,

1282
01:15:36,280 --> 01:15:39,920
Speaker 2: and I'm talking about the elected leaders. We voted for

1283
01:15:40,120 --> 01:15:44,880
Speaker 2: Donald Trump and a majority Republican Congress for that one reason,

1284
01:15:45,120 --> 01:15:48,760
Speaker 2: to deport all of the illegals as he called them,

1285
01:15:48,760 --> 01:15:52,760
Speaker 2: the non citizens. Yes, we want them all to go

1286
01:15:52,880 --> 01:15:56,600
Speaker 2: back to where they came from. How hard is it

1287
01:15:56,800 --> 01:15:57,519
Speaker 2: to figure out?

1288
01:15:57,560 --> 01:15:57,680
Speaker 5: All?

1289
01:15:57,760 --> 01:15:59,880
Speaker 2: Right, got to take a break here. Nine oh one

1290
01:16:00,080 --> 01:16:02,960
Speaker 2: two six zero five to nine two six. Our telephone number,

1291
01:16:03,280 --> 01:16:06,000
Speaker 2: that's nine oh one two six zero five to nine

1292
01:16:06,000 --> 01:16:08,479
Speaker 2: two six. This is the Todd Starns Show.

1293
01:16:31,200 --> 01:16:35,000
Speaker 1: Live from the Liberty University Studio in Memphis, Tennessee. It's

1294
01:16:35,080 --> 01:16:39,120
Speaker 1: America's favorite gun total bible clinging, deplorable American.

1295
01:16:39,360 --> 01:16:41,200
Speaker 19: That's that's.

1296
01:16:43,400 --> 01:16:49,800
Speaker 2: This American. Todd starts, well, yea, all right, it's really

1297
01:16:49,880 --> 01:16:53,679
Speaker 2: cold outside. So hello everybody, Welcome to the Todd Starns

1298
01:16:53,760 --> 01:16:58,360
Speaker 2: Radio Show. Well, the professional weather guessers got it wrong again,

1299
01:16:58,400 --> 01:17:00,760
Speaker 2: and I'm actually kind of glad that they did, at

1300
01:17:00,800 --> 01:17:06,000
Speaker 2: least for Memphis. Horrible news for you people in Mississippi,

1301
01:17:06,040 --> 01:17:10,439
Speaker 2: but really, the weather is insane from Texas all the

1302
01:17:10,439 --> 01:17:12,760
Speaker 2: way to New York City. I'm supposed to be in

1303
01:17:12,840 --> 01:17:15,240
Speaker 2: Houston tomorrow. I don't even know if I'm going to

1304
01:17:15,280 --> 01:17:17,800
Speaker 2: be able to get to the airport. It normally takes

1305
01:17:17,840 --> 01:17:19,720
Speaker 2: me ten minutes to get it. Took well over an

1306
01:17:19,720 --> 01:17:22,920
Speaker 2: hour to get into the office today. The roads are

1307
01:17:23,040 --> 01:17:26,360
Speaker 2: just insanely bad in Memphis, and for whatever reason, we

1308
01:17:26,439 --> 01:17:29,920
Speaker 2: don't have snowplows, and well it's just a bad situation.

1309
01:17:30,360 --> 01:17:34,800
Speaker 2: Also for our listeners on radio station KWAM, that's our

1310
01:17:34,840 --> 01:17:39,040
Speaker 2: flagship station. Your AM signal may be a little spotty today,

1311
01:17:39,080 --> 01:17:42,080
Speaker 2: and it has everything to do with the ice accumulation.

1312
01:17:42,840 --> 01:17:46,760
Speaker 2: I was just out in the satellite garden in back

1313
01:17:46,800 --> 01:17:50,240
Speaker 2: of our palatial studios and I was trying to knock

1314
01:17:50,320 --> 01:17:53,839
Speaker 2: off some of the ice. It's about oh three inches

1315
01:17:54,520 --> 01:17:57,080
Speaker 2: of ice on our satellite edition. So that's the reason

1316
01:17:57,080 --> 01:18:00,280
Speaker 2: why it's a little spotty. So bear with us. It's

1317
01:18:00,280 --> 01:18:02,400
Speaker 2: not going to get any warmer, that's the thing. And

1318
01:18:02,960 --> 01:18:05,360
Speaker 2: somebody was telling me they would not be surprised if

1319
01:18:05,439 --> 01:18:09,280
Speaker 2: kids don't go back to school in Memphis until maybe February.

1320
01:18:09,560 --> 01:18:11,920
Speaker 2: I mean, that's how bad it is here. It's even

1321
01:18:12,000 --> 01:18:17,480
Speaker 2: worse in Mississippi. The mayor of Oxford says that it's catastrophic.

1322
01:18:17,840 --> 01:18:20,839
Speaker 2: If you've been to that town, they have beautiful trees,

1323
01:18:21,240 --> 01:18:23,720
Speaker 2: and I'd said had beautiful trees because most of them

1324
01:18:23,760 --> 01:18:26,479
Speaker 2: were taken down by the storm and all the freezing rain.

1325
01:18:26,520 --> 01:18:30,400
Speaker 2: They got the same situation up in Nashville. I want

1326
01:18:30,439 --> 01:18:33,000
Speaker 2: to go to our Patriot Mobile newsmaker line. Pamela Fir

1327
01:18:33,120 --> 01:18:36,280
Speaker 2: joins us. She lives in the in Middle Tennessee. Pam,

1328
01:18:36,320 --> 01:18:39,240
Speaker 2: what's the situation there in the Nashville area.

1329
01:18:39,960 --> 01:18:42,560
Speaker 23: Oh my gosh, I would put it in a catastrophic

1330
01:18:42,640 --> 01:18:46,799
Speaker 23: category as well. We have more than two hundred thousand

1331
01:18:46,880 --> 01:18:49,760
Speaker 23: people who remain without power and at this point have

1332
01:18:49,840 --> 01:18:53,720
Speaker 23: been without power for about twenty four hours. And as

1333
01:18:53,840 --> 01:18:56,720
Speaker 23: the crews, the electric crews, you've got different companies here,

1334
01:18:56,720 --> 01:19:00,400
Speaker 23: but WHI should say Nashville Electric Service as there adding

1335
01:19:00,439 --> 01:19:02,800
Speaker 23: power lines back up because a tree may have taken

1336
01:19:02,840 --> 01:19:06,960
Speaker 23: one out and transformers blown. As they're repairing it, they

1337
01:19:07,080 --> 01:19:10,519
Speaker 23: leave and in their rear view mirror another tree will

1338
01:19:10,560 --> 01:19:12,960
Speaker 23: fall and take out the work they just did. So

1339
01:19:13,000 --> 01:19:15,919
Speaker 23: it just keeps happening and happening because as you mentioned,

1340
01:19:16,000 --> 01:19:18,960
Speaker 23: the ice isn't melting, but temperatures are still cold enough

1341
01:19:19,200 --> 01:19:23,200
Speaker 23: that this stuff remains frozen. Or if by chance anything

1342
01:19:23,280 --> 01:19:26,680
Speaker 23: is in snow, I'm sorry, in the sun it might

1343
01:19:26,760 --> 01:19:29,719
Speaker 23: melt a little bit, but once that sun moves away,

1344
01:19:30,000 --> 01:19:33,920
Speaker 23: it melts, it freezes right back. It's really treacherous here.

1345
01:19:34,360 --> 01:19:37,679
Speaker 23: A lot of the old old trees taking out power lines.

1346
01:19:37,920 --> 01:19:40,320
Speaker 23: God there's another story too, which is kind of tragic,

1347
01:19:40,360 --> 01:19:44,920
Speaker 23: but you've got power lines being taken down by trees.

1348
01:19:45,040 --> 01:19:49,920
Speaker 23: Sometimes it's also pulling away from houses right when the

1349
01:19:49,960 --> 01:19:53,439
Speaker 23: trees come down and the lines come down once power

1350
01:19:53,520 --> 01:19:58,719
Speaker 23: gets restored. There's been several stories of houses catching on fire,

1351
01:20:00,040 --> 01:20:03,680
Speaker 23: and so you've got families who are losing their homes

1352
01:20:03,720 --> 01:20:07,080
Speaker 23: at this point because of all. Wow, it's really it's bad,

1353
01:20:07,240 --> 01:20:10,000
Speaker 23: It's really bad. She five is closed down. A director

1354
01:20:10,080 --> 01:20:13,080
Speaker 23: trailer jack knife hit one of the Tea Dot signs,

1355
01:20:13,120 --> 01:20:15,559
Speaker 23: and the Tea Dot sign came crashing to the ground

1356
01:20:15,880 --> 01:20:17,559
Speaker 23: because it was so heavy with ice.

1357
01:20:19,000 --> 01:20:22,960
Speaker 2: According to the National Weather Service, nearly fifteen inches of

1358
01:20:23,120 --> 01:20:26,400
Speaker 2: snow in New York City and they haven't seen that

1359
01:20:26,439 --> 01:20:30,000
Speaker 2: amount of snow in the years they're in New York City.

1360
01:20:30,120 --> 01:20:32,320
Speaker 2: When you get that much, everything shuts down. I don't

1361
01:20:32,360 --> 01:20:34,120
Speaker 2: care what they tell you about being able to you know,

1362
01:20:34,200 --> 01:20:36,719
Speaker 2: Northerner's drive better now. I don't care that much snow.

1363
01:20:36,800 --> 01:20:39,479
Speaker 2: Nobody goes anywhere. I only know that because I lived

1364
01:20:39,479 --> 01:20:43,280
Speaker 2: there for fifteen years, and they're just as bad driving

1365
01:20:43,280 --> 01:20:45,240
Speaker 2: in the snow as we are down here.

1366
01:20:45,479 --> 01:20:48,920
Speaker 23: Yeah yeah, yeah, well I heard this, Tuton. I heard

1367
01:20:48,960 --> 01:20:54,439
Speaker 23: that on the airline shut down or canceled historic numbers

1368
01:20:54,479 --> 01:20:57,960
Speaker 23: of flights like they haven't seen that many flights canceled

1369
01:20:58,040 --> 01:20:59,599
Speaker 23: or grounded since since then.

1370
01:20:59,720 --> 01:21:05,439
Speaker 2: A left Wow, it's insane. I know, Memphis International flights,

1371
01:21:05,880 --> 01:21:08,439
Speaker 2: I mean thousands and thousands of flights are being canceled.

1372
01:21:08,479 --> 01:21:11,160
Speaker 2: And again I'm supposed to be flying to Houston tomorrow, Pamela.

1373
01:21:11,240 --> 01:21:13,320
Speaker 2: I don't even know if I'm getting up. I don't

1374
01:21:13,320 --> 01:21:14,760
Speaker 2: know if I'm going to be able to get there,

1375
01:21:15,400 --> 01:21:19,000
Speaker 2: because you know, we just have you know, we don't

1376
01:21:19,000 --> 01:21:22,559
Speaker 2: have snowplows here. But I'll tell you what we do have, Pamela.

1377
01:21:22,640 --> 01:21:27,559
Speaker 2: There's some video going viral. People are using tables like

1378
01:21:27,600 --> 01:21:29,559
Speaker 2: you know when you go to church supper, you know

1379
01:21:29,600 --> 01:21:32,880
Speaker 2: those kinds of tables. They're turning upside down and using

1380
01:21:32,880 --> 01:21:36,880
Speaker 2: them as sleds and people are I'm not kidding you.

1381
01:21:38,920 --> 01:21:42,840
Speaker 2: And also car hoods, so like the hoods of cars.

1382
01:21:44,479 --> 01:21:49,519
Speaker 23: That's interesting. Well, speaking of the flights here in Nashville,

1383
01:21:49,960 --> 01:21:53,400
Speaker 23: they shut the airport down last night because they didn't

1384
01:21:53,439 --> 01:21:56,120
Speaker 23: have enough air traffic controllers because they couldn't get to

1385
01:21:56,160 --> 01:21:58,840
Speaker 23: work because the roads were so bad.

1386
01:21:59,439 --> 01:22:01,880
Speaker 2: No I believe that. I mean, it's and I can

1387
01:22:01,920 --> 01:22:03,919
Speaker 2: only imagine. I've been seeing a lot of the images

1388
01:22:03,920 --> 01:22:06,280
Speaker 2: coming out of Mississippi and Ole miss and many of

1389
01:22:06,280 --> 01:22:10,160
Speaker 2: you have been to the Grove for the tailgating during

1390
01:22:10,439 --> 01:22:14,400
Speaker 2: SEC football season, and it's it's devastating, and I think

1391
01:22:14,400 --> 01:22:17,160
Speaker 2: a lot of it has to do with this the

1392
01:22:17,200 --> 01:22:21,040
Speaker 2: freezing rain. Right, it falls as rain and immediately freezes.

1393
01:22:21,120 --> 01:22:23,400
Speaker 2: It just encapsulates everything.

1394
01:22:23,439 --> 01:22:26,200
Speaker 14: It touches absolutely.

1395
01:22:26,520 --> 01:22:29,680
Speaker 23: For us here, we got the snow first and then

1396
01:22:29,680 --> 01:22:32,480
Speaker 23: the freezing rain on top of that, so it freezes

1397
01:22:32,560 --> 01:22:35,760
Speaker 23: the snow that's underneath it. So now you have one, two,

1398
01:22:35,880 --> 01:22:40,200
Speaker 23: maybe three inches of ice. It's pretty devastating. We haven't

1399
01:22:40,320 --> 01:22:43,519
Speaker 23: in Middle Tennessee. We haven't seen anything like this since

1400
01:22:43,600 --> 01:22:47,360
Speaker 23: nineteen ninety four when power for some people was out,

1401
01:22:47,680 --> 01:22:50,519
Speaker 23: you know, up to a month. I think technology has

1402
01:22:50,520 --> 01:22:53,800
Speaker 23: gotten better since then. But they're they're thinking that there

1403
01:22:53,880 --> 01:22:56,840
Speaker 23: will be people without power for at least a week.

1404
01:22:57,200 --> 01:23:00,960
Speaker 2: Really wow, wow, I am. I'm curious. I know we

1405
01:23:01,000 --> 01:23:03,240
Speaker 2: have a lot of listeners in that area. I just

1406
01:23:03,240 --> 01:23:06,400
Speaker 2: someone sent me some photographs of Helen, Georgia, and I

1407
01:23:06,400 --> 01:23:09,960
Speaker 2: guess you guys in the North Georgia area, wdun. You

1408
01:23:10,000 --> 01:23:12,200
Speaker 2: guys got some ice up in those parts, so let

1409
01:23:12,280 --> 01:23:14,920
Speaker 2: us know how you're doing. Nine oh one two six

1410
01:23:15,080 --> 01:23:18,160
Speaker 2: zero five nine two six. That's nine oh one two

1411
01:23:18,200 --> 01:23:21,360
Speaker 2: six zero five nine two six Pamela, did you guys

1412
01:23:21,479 --> 01:23:25,080
Speaker 2: lose power? You guys doing well well?

1413
01:23:25,080 --> 01:23:28,200
Speaker 23: For me personally, I have not lost power. I'm knocking

1414
01:23:28,280 --> 01:23:31,439
Speaker 23: on what would and thanking Jesus for that. But in

1415
01:23:31,560 --> 01:23:34,280
Speaker 23: I live in Williamson County, but the majority of Williamson

1416
01:23:34,320 --> 01:23:37,519
Speaker 23: County ended up losing power. So it's it's it's that

1417
01:23:37,640 --> 01:23:41,360
Speaker 23: in Davidson County. It's really really bad at this point,

1418
01:23:41,760 --> 01:23:44,680
Speaker 23: but I'm I'm good. I had my provisions, though, I

1419
01:23:44,720 --> 01:23:48,960
Speaker 23: took the advice of those that make those decisions, and

1420
01:23:49,120 --> 01:23:52,080
Speaker 23: I stocked up on my bread and my milk and

1421
01:23:52,080 --> 01:23:55,160
Speaker 23: my eggs. So I'm like three days into French toast,

1422
01:23:56,240 --> 01:24:00,519
Speaker 23: So I'm pretty good at this point. Toast, yes, yes,

1423
01:24:01,160 --> 01:24:03,160
Speaker 23: but at any rate. But seriously speaking, I mean, it's

1424
01:24:03,200 --> 01:24:06,519
Speaker 23: always good to be prepared for situations like this. I've

1425
01:24:06,600 --> 01:24:10,479
Speaker 23: charged all of my phones and computers and whatnot, just

1426
01:24:10,520 --> 01:24:12,880
Speaker 23: to be on the safe side. I think those that

1427
01:24:12,960 --> 01:24:15,360
Speaker 23: are without outpower are glad that they did that.

1428
01:24:15,720 --> 01:24:18,960
Speaker 2: I got two two eight packs of doctor pepper, just

1429
01:24:19,000 --> 01:24:21,040
Speaker 2: stuck them outside. They got really cold.

1430
01:24:23,520 --> 01:24:24,920
Speaker 23: That's your drink of choice, is it?

1431
01:24:25,120 --> 01:24:25,320
Speaker 4: Yeah?

1432
01:24:25,320 --> 01:24:27,280
Speaker 14: Well, good to.

1433
01:24:27,280 --> 01:24:34,919
Speaker 2: Know all the record, it is, Oh my goodness. All right, Well, Pamela,

1434
01:24:34,960 --> 01:24:37,240
Speaker 2: I'm just shocked because Davidson County, that's where all the

1435
01:24:37,320 --> 01:24:39,439
Speaker 2: rich people live. I'm shocked they'd let the power go

1436
01:24:39,520 --> 01:24:41,679
Speaker 2: out there. But maybe you're really.

1437
01:24:41,520 --> 01:24:44,000
Speaker 14: Williamson County, I think is where all the rich people live.

1438
01:24:44,000 --> 01:24:46,720
Speaker 14: And you're right, Oh my goodness, but it seemed but

1439
01:24:46,760 --> 01:24:51,880
Speaker 14: it seems like they seriously speaking Williamson and Davidson has

1440
01:24:52,320 --> 01:24:53,800
Speaker 14: the majority of the I.

1441
01:24:53,680 --> 01:24:56,680
Speaker 23: Think the power outages at this point. If you if

1442
01:24:56,720 --> 01:24:59,759
Speaker 23: you see pictures, if you get a chance, anybody listening,

1443
01:24:59,800 --> 01:25:02,799
Speaker 23: if you you look up Music Row or downtown Nashville,

1444
01:25:03,320 --> 01:25:06,200
Speaker 23: you will it's pre I mean, you've got power lines

1445
01:25:06,800 --> 01:25:10,759
Speaker 23: down everywhere. It looks like a bomb and ice bomb

1446
01:25:10,840 --> 01:25:11,280
Speaker 23: went off.

1447
01:25:12,280 --> 01:25:14,560
Speaker 2: All right, well, Pamela, we're gonna leave with their appreciate

01:25:32,640 --> 01:25:35,800
Speaker 2: one two six zero five nine two six. Let's go

1455
01:25:35,800 --> 01:25:38,840
Speaker 2: to the phone lines. Mike and Memphis, Tennessee listening to

1456
01:25:38,880 --> 01:25:42,920
Speaker 2: us on KWAM. I Mike, what's on your mind today?

1457
01:25:42,920 --> 01:25:45,640
Speaker 8: Greetings Todd. Yeah, I've still got seven thousand gallons of

1458
01:25:45,680 --> 01:25:49,439
Speaker 8: aircrafty as fluid if anybody's running short. But oh that's

1459
01:25:49,479 --> 01:25:50,160
Speaker 8: the Y two.

1460
01:25:50,080 --> 01:25:56,200
Speaker 2: K Joe because anyway, thank you, Okay, go ahead.

1461
01:25:57,840 --> 01:26:01,040
Speaker 8: Actually, I've watched these videos and I see the goons

1462
01:26:01,080 --> 01:26:04,360
Speaker 8: clapping hands after they murdered the guy. He's on his knees,

1463
01:26:04,439 --> 01:26:09,040
Speaker 8: he's disarmed, he's prior to that, he's just videotaping until

1464
01:26:09,120 --> 01:26:11,599
Speaker 8: they shoved a woman on the ground and he tried

1465
01:26:11,600 --> 01:26:13,479
Speaker 8: to help her up and then they jumped on him.

1466
01:26:14,120 --> 01:26:16,639
Speaker 8: So you know, look, I know a lot of people

1467
01:26:16,680 --> 01:26:20,200
Speaker 8: has been in the military and in war zones. They

1468
01:26:20,200 --> 01:26:22,920
Speaker 8: don't just execute somebody like that, even if they've got

1469
01:26:22,960 --> 01:26:26,080
Speaker 8: a gun. And certainly in this country, my concern is

1470
01:26:26,120 --> 01:26:29,120
Speaker 8: that the IDF are training these goons. We've got good

1471
01:26:29,200 --> 01:26:32,400
Speaker 8: people in Ice, we've got good people in the FBI,

1472
01:26:32,760 --> 01:26:35,880
Speaker 8: but something's gone crazy with this one little group of people.

1473
01:26:36,640 --> 01:26:39,880
Speaker 8: They need to be snatched up and locked up and

1474
01:26:39,960 --> 01:26:42,320
Speaker 8: find out what's going on and why they're being so

1475
01:26:42,360 --> 01:26:45,479
Speaker 8: heavy handed on these people, because these are all looking

1476
01:26:45,560 --> 01:26:49,320
Speaker 8: like staged events where they're creating the scenario by which,

1477
01:26:49,760 --> 01:26:52,800
Speaker 8: as you said a month ago, you're waiting for public executions.

1478
01:26:53,400 --> 01:26:54,280
Speaker 8: That's what they're doing.

1479
01:26:54,439 --> 01:26:56,599
Speaker 2: So you're telling me, Mike, I just want to make

1480
01:26:56,600 --> 01:26:58,680
Speaker 2: sure we're on the same line of thinking here. So

1481
01:26:58,720 --> 01:27:02,519
Speaker 2: you believe the federal age and are intentionally gunning down

1482
01:27:02,560 --> 01:27:04,240
Speaker 2: people on the streets of Minneapolis.

1483
01:27:05,240 --> 01:27:08,080
Speaker 8: I do public executions. You had mentioned it over a

1484
01:27:08,120 --> 01:27:11,320
Speaker 8: month ago, and I paid attention to your show daily,

1485
01:27:11,680 --> 01:27:14,000
Speaker 8: and I know that you cover a lot of ground,

1486
01:27:14,280 --> 01:27:17,200
Speaker 8: and so I listen in like a lot of people do.

1487
01:27:17,320 --> 01:27:19,760
Speaker 8: And when you talked about that, I'm looking at the

1488
01:27:19,800 --> 01:27:22,880
Speaker 8: writing on the wall of the operations that are going on.

1489
01:27:23,000 --> 01:27:24,559
Speaker 8: I've lived in this area for a long time. I

1490
01:27:24,600 --> 01:27:27,040
Speaker 8: remember when they did the community farming training out at

1491
01:27:27,080 --> 01:27:29,920
Speaker 8: Wolford Aviation where they're training foreign troops how to go

1492
01:27:30,000 --> 01:27:32,519
Speaker 8: door to door and eliminate the population in West Tennessee.

1493
01:27:32,640 --> 01:27:34,760
Speaker 8: So I know all about this stuff. I'm here to

1494
01:27:34,800 --> 01:27:37,800
Speaker 8: tell you what they're doing is not legal. It's not

1495
01:27:38,400 --> 01:27:41,240
Speaker 8: part of any if it's the training that they're doing,

1496
01:27:41,320 --> 01:27:43,719
Speaker 8: it's totally unlawful what they're doing.

1497
01:27:44,560 --> 01:27:47,280
Speaker 2: What exactly, I'm just curious here. So let's just say,

1498
01:27:47,560 --> 01:27:49,360
Speaker 2: let's just say it for the sake of the argument.

1499
01:27:49,400 --> 01:27:54,479
Speaker 2: You're driving down, say Poplar Avenue in Memphis, Tennessee, and

1500
01:27:54,560 --> 01:27:56,760
Speaker 2: you see, you know, a half a dozen or so

1501
01:27:56,840 --> 01:28:01,000
Speaker 2: police officers and they've pulled over somebody and they're in

1502
01:28:01,000 --> 01:28:03,200
Speaker 2: the middle of a police action. You jump out of

1503
01:28:03,240 --> 01:28:06,200
Speaker 2: your car. You immediately run up into the faces of

1504
01:28:06,240 --> 01:28:09,080
Speaker 2: those law enforcement agents as their officers, as they're trying

1505
01:28:09,120 --> 01:28:13,360
Speaker 2: to do whatever they're trying to do. And you're saying

1506
01:28:13,560 --> 01:28:15,600
Speaker 2: that you have a right as a citizen to do that,

1507
01:28:15,960 --> 01:28:19,080
Speaker 2: you have a right to interrupt and interfere with official

1508
01:28:19,120 --> 01:28:20,120
Speaker 2: police business.

1509
01:28:21,680 --> 01:28:23,760
Speaker 8: Neither of these two that will murder ran up in

1510
01:28:24,080 --> 01:28:27,880
Speaker 8: anybody's faces that the goons ran up to them.

1511
01:28:29,880 --> 01:28:32,160
Speaker 2: No, the guy I mean, when you the videos I'm

1512
01:28:32,200 --> 01:28:36,479
Speaker 2: looking at, I see they were trying to apprehend a

1513
01:28:36,640 --> 01:28:40,760
Speaker 2: woman and then the guy who got shot comes up

1514
01:28:40,800 --> 01:28:41,680
Speaker 2: and interferes.

1515
01:28:41,800 --> 01:28:45,639
Speaker 8: At that point, he's standing there when the guy throws

1516
01:28:45,680 --> 01:28:47,639
Speaker 8: the woman to the ground right in front of him,

1517
01:28:47,640 --> 01:28:49,880
Speaker 8: and he tries to pick the woman up. He's being

1518
01:28:49,880 --> 01:28:51,880
Speaker 8: a gentleman, he's trying to help her.

1519
01:28:52,560 --> 01:28:55,880
Speaker 2: So again back to the Memphis So you see, you

1520
01:28:55,920 --> 01:28:58,320
Speaker 2: see the suspect that the Memphis police are trying to

1521
01:28:58,360 --> 01:29:00,800
Speaker 2: apprehend drop to the ground, you rush over and try

1522
01:29:00,840 --> 01:29:04,439
Speaker 2: to help that person up. You're saying that's legal. You

1523
01:29:04,479 --> 01:29:06,840
Speaker 2: should be allowed to do that, so that law about

1524
01:29:06,840 --> 01:29:09,400
Speaker 2: any citizens should be able to go in and interfere

1525
01:29:09,439 --> 01:29:10,840
Speaker 2: with official police action.

1526
01:29:12,080 --> 01:29:13,760
Speaker 8: They threw the woman to the ground.

1527
01:29:13,560 --> 01:29:16,360
Speaker 2: It doesn't matter. No, no, no, they were trying to apprehend her.

1528
01:29:17,760 --> 01:29:20,360
Speaker 8: They threw her to the ground. They weren't trying to

1529
01:29:20,360 --> 01:29:22,280
Speaker 8: apprehend her. They were trying to I see.

1530
01:29:22,360 --> 01:29:24,880
Speaker 2: So let me just so, are you trying to are

1531
01:29:24,880 --> 01:29:27,639
Speaker 2: you trying to tell us Mike? And again, you sound

1532
01:29:27,800 --> 01:29:31,720
Speaker 2: very reasonable that President Trump has deployed government agents to

1533
01:29:31,760 --> 01:29:35,400
Speaker 2: go out and randomly hunt down, shoot, and kill people

1534
01:29:35,479 --> 01:29:36,639
Speaker 2: on American streets.

1535
01:29:38,160 --> 01:29:40,000
Speaker 8: Well, it sure looks that way. I don't know that

1536
01:29:40,080 --> 01:29:44,280
Speaker 8: President Trump is actually calling the shots, but somebody somewhere

1537
01:29:44,640 --> 01:29:47,080
Speaker 8: is pulling the strings. Because what these people are doing

1538
01:29:47,200 --> 01:29:51,720
Speaker 8: is not normal law enforcement practices, it's not military practices.

1539
01:29:51,800 --> 01:29:56,600
Speaker 8: It's a violation of not only United States law the Constitution,

1540
01:29:56,720 --> 01:29:59,720
Speaker 8: but under international law, it's totally illegal.

1541
01:30:00,040 --> 01:30:01,719
Speaker 2: Let me ask you people, let me ask you another

1542
01:30:01,800 --> 01:30:05,519
Speaker 2: question here. So last night you had these two federal

1543
01:30:05,560 --> 01:30:09,479
Speaker 2: agents and they're guarding a Hilton hotel property. The mob

1544
01:30:09,560 --> 01:30:13,240
Speaker 2: descends upon them, uh, and they beat the agents to

1545
01:30:13,280 --> 01:30:15,479
Speaker 2: a bloody pulp? Are you okay with that?

1546
01:30:16,600 --> 01:30:18,600
Speaker 8: I don't know anything about it, to be honest, how

1547
01:30:18,600 --> 01:30:19,040
Speaker 8: do you really?

1548
01:30:19,080 --> 01:30:20,840
Speaker 2: I don't know in all seriousness, though, I mean, are

1549
01:30:20,880 --> 01:30:24,360
Speaker 2: you okay? Yesterday? Yesterday? And the reason I'm asking there's

1550
01:30:24,360 --> 01:30:28,120
Speaker 2: a reason I'm asking this question. Yesterday there was a

1551
01:30:28,120 --> 01:30:32,559
Speaker 2: federal agent whose finger was literally bitten off by one

1552
01:30:32,600 --> 01:30:35,720
Speaker 2: of the protesters. I don't hear anybody complaining about that

1553
01:30:35,880 --> 01:30:38,839
Speaker 2: or protests. I just don't hear anything about that, almost

1554
01:30:38,920 --> 01:30:41,439
Speaker 2: as if people are out there justifying these kinds of

1555
01:30:41,439 --> 01:30:42,960
Speaker 2: actions against law enforcement.

1556
01:30:44,520 --> 01:30:47,280
Speaker 8: No, I would that would be something I would like

1557
01:30:47,360 --> 01:30:47,719
Speaker 8: to see.

1558
01:30:48,160 --> 01:30:52,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's like get videos all over the website there. Yeah,

1559
01:30:52,240 --> 01:30:52,800
Speaker 2: I would go.

1560
01:30:52,800 --> 01:30:53,320
Speaker 6: Check it out.

1561
01:30:54,560 --> 01:30:56,920
Speaker 8: I've been busy putting snow chains on tires for the

1562
01:30:56,960 --> 01:30:58,439
Speaker 8: last twelve hours, so no.

1563
01:30:58,439 --> 01:31:01,240
Speaker 2: I understand. Yeah, No, I wish I had the snowtars.

1564
01:31:01,400 --> 01:31:03,599
Speaker 2: You see, that's what I need. Mike, I'm gonna let

1565
01:31:03,600 --> 01:31:06,080
Speaker 2: you go. You've given our audience something to chew on there.

1566
01:31:06,720 --> 01:31:11,680
Speaker 2: Mike from Memphis Ladies and Gentlemen believes that these are assassinations,

1567
01:31:11,840 --> 01:31:15,519
Speaker 2: and these are I guess government sanctioned assassinations on people.

1568
01:31:15,600 --> 01:31:18,360
Speaker 2: What say you? Nine oh one two six zero five

1569
01:31:18,479 --> 01:31:20,880
Speaker 2: nine two six are telephone number? That's nine oh one

1570
01:31:21,360 --> 01:31:24,320
Speaker 2: two six zero five nine two six. When we come back,

1571
01:31:24,320 --> 01:31:27,360
Speaker 2: we're gonna check in with Debbie. She's got some info

1572
01:31:27,400 --> 01:31:31,320
Speaker 2: and intel on the weather situation Manny and Idaho. This

1573
01:31:31,400 --> 01:31:41,920
Speaker 2: is the Todd Stern Show. All right, let's go two

1574
01:31:42,000 --> 01:31:46,240
Speaker 2: of the phones. Kate Coral, Florida. Demi is on the line, Debbie,

1575
01:31:46,320 --> 01:31:48,880
Speaker 2: what is going on? What is on your mind today?

1576
01:31:49,720 --> 01:31:52,400
Speaker 15: Hey, Todd, I just wanted to share with you. My

1577
01:31:52,560 --> 01:31:55,880
Speaker 15: son is a Montana smoke jumper. Those are those men

1578
01:31:55,960 --> 01:31:58,320
Speaker 15: and women that get in the airplanes and jump into

1579
01:31:58,320 --> 01:32:01,919
Speaker 15: those big wild land fires on the northwest Pacific. Oh

1580
01:32:01,920 --> 01:32:05,000
Speaker 15: And part of their defense strategy is cutting down trees.

1581
01:32:05,439 --> 01:32:08,920
Speaker 15: So his team, his crew has been deployed. As of tomorrow,

1582
01:32:08,960 --> 01:32:11,880
Speaker 15: they will be in Mississippi helping to cut down those

1583
01:32:11,920 --> 01:32:13,679
Speaker 15: trees and get them out of the way to clear

1584
01:32:13,720 --> 01:32:14,480
Speaker 15: the roadways.

1585
01:32:15,320 --> 01:32:18,040
Speaker 2: Is that right, you know, Debbie? I mean it's really

1586
01:32:18,360 --> 01:32:21,960
Speaker 2: really bad in Mississippi and Ayuka. Someone just sent me

1587
01:32:22,000 --> 01:32:24,840
Speaker 2: some photos from a little town called Ayuka, and they

1588
01:32:24,840 --> 01:32:27,920
Speaker 2: say it could be weeks before the power gets back around.

1589
01:32:29,000 --> 01:32:29,479
Speaker 24: Wow.

1590
01:32:29,800 --> 01:32:31,519
Speaker 15: Well, I just you know, it just kind of makes

1591
01:32:31,520 --> 01:32:34,200
Speaker 15: my heart feel strong when I see all of us

1592
01:32:34,200 --> 01:32:37,080
Speaker 15: as Americans coming together. And I mean those men are

1593
01:32:37,120 --> 01:32:39,200
Speaker 15: way out in Montana and they're getting on a flight

1594
01:32:39,240 --> 01:32:41,720
Speaker 15: to go into Mississippi and they're proud to do it.

1595
01:32:42,320 --> 01:32:45,439
Speaker 2: Well, that just does my heart good as well. And

1596
01:32:45,640 --> 01:32:48,679
Speaker 2: here's hoping that by the time they get finished cutting

1597
01:32:48,680 --> 01:32:51,000
Speaker 2: down those trees, maybe they'll they'll get some R and

1598
01:32:51,120 --> 01:32:53,760
Speaker 2: R on Beal Street and they get some good get

1599
01:32:53,800 --> 01:32:56,639
Speaker 2: some good barbecue at them while they're in the mid South.

1600
01:32:57,280 --> 01:33:01,120
Speaker 15: I'm sure they would appreciate that Southern hospitality. And if

1601
01:33:01,160 --> 01:33:03,640
Speaker 15: I can just say, Todd on that last collar that

1602
01:33:03,720 --> 01:33:07,200
Speaker 15: you had, he's an absolute nincome poop if he thinks

1603
01:33:07,200 --> 01:33:11,800
Speaker 15: that our ice agents are out there assassinating our Americans.

1604
01:33:11,920 --> 01:33:14,559
Speaker 15: I mean, they are in a defensive strategy right now,

1605
01:33:14,600 --> 01:33:17,080
Speaker 15: and when their life is in danger and they're in harm,

1606
01:33:17,320 --> 01:33:19,599
Speaker 15: they are doing exactly what they need to be doing.

1607
01:33:19,680 --> 01:33:22,400
Speaker 15: And I just lift them up in prayers every day.

1608
01:33:22,720 --> 01:33:25,480
Speaker 2: Well, we ought to be doing that. And Debbie, I'll

1609
01:33:25,560 --> 01:33:28,559
Speaker 2: say this, My concern is that we've got those federal

1610
01:33:28,600 --> 01:33:31,720
Speaker 2: agents here and they don't have enough resources they need,

1611
01:33:32,040 --> 01:33:34,320
Speaker 2: and especially when you've got law enforcement, you know, the

1612
01:33:34,320 --> 01:33:37,320
Speaker 2: local police department, they're not doing anything to help these

1613
01:33:37,320 --> 01:33:38,280
Speaker 2: guys in gals.

1614
01:33:38,439 --> 01:33:40,240
Speaker 15: It's a shame. It's an absolute shame.

1615
01:33:41,080 --> 01:33:43,880
Speaker 2: All right, Debbie, I want you to you tell as

1616
01:33:44,000 --> 01:33:48,040
Speaker 2: your son is that who's who's a member of the team. Yes, well,

1617
01:33:48,080 --> 01:33:51,000
Speaker 2: you tell him that we are so thankful and we

1618
01:33:51,320 --> 01:33:53,600
Speaker 2: can't wait to have them down here in Dixie.

1619
01:33:54,360 --> 01:33:56,880
Speaker 15: All right, listen, take care, God bless times, all right.

1620
01:33:56,760 --> 01:34:00,880
Speaker 2: God bless Debbie. Debbie from Cape Caral, Florida. Debbie, that's

1621
01:34:00,880 --> 01:34:03,920
Speaker 2: a great call, and God blets all of you folks.

1622
01:34:03,960 --> 01:34:06,360
Speaker 2: I know a lot of linemen are coming down and

1623
01:34:06,680 --> 01:34:10,280
Speaker 2: I just can't say enough stuff about the Linemen of America.

1624
01:34:10,800 --> 01:34:14,240
Speaker 2: And they're doing a great job getting our lights back

1625
01:34:14,320 --> 01:34:16,880
Speaker 2: on because it's just a big mess. And I know

1626
01:34:17,000 --> 01:34:20,360
Speaker 2: in Louisville, did I see somebody was doing They had

1627
01:34:20,400 --> 01:34:22,880
Speaker 2: an Amish guy in a buggy in Louisville and they

1628
01:34:22,920 --> 01:34:25,920
Speaker 2: were doing donuts in the buggy with the horses. I

1629
01:34:25,960 --> 01:34:28,960
Speaker 2: don't know how they did it, but it's the Amish.

1630
01:34:29,200 --> 01:34:33,320
Speaker 2: So rock on, my friend, rock on, all right, hanging

1631
01:34:33,360 --> 01:34:35,799
Speaker 2: tied folks got to take a quick break going directly

1632
01:34:35,840 --> 01:34:39,160
Speaker 2: to your calls. We've got Kendall in Georgia. You're up

1633
01:34:39,200 --> 01:35:04,679
Speaker 2: next on the Todd Sterns Radio show Branchville, New Jersey.

1634
01:35:05,160 --> 01:35:09,760
Speaker 2: You guys got seventeen inches of snow. That's brutal, brutal.

1635
01:35:10,560 --> 01:35:12,920
Speaker 2: All right, let's go to the phones. Nine oh one

1636
01:35:13,000 --> 01:35:16,920
Speaker 2: two six zero five nine two six. Kendall in Georgia

1637
01:35:17,000 --> 01:35:21,400
Speaker 2: listening to us on WDUN great great radio station. Hi Kendall,

1638
01:35:21,560 --> 01:35:22,880
Speaker 2: what's on your mind?

1639
01:35:23,880 --> 01:35:24,280
Speaker 5: And man?

1640
01:35:24,640 --> 01:35:24,920
Speaker 24: Uh?

1641
01:35:25,600 --> 01:35:27,840
Speaker 25: First of all, I just want to preface this by

1642
01:35:27,920 --> 01:35:31,400
Speaker 25: saying I am a first responder and I'm a paramedic.

1643
01:35:31,479 --> 01:35:35,559
Speaker 25: I care about people. But based on your last guy

1644
01:35:35,600 --> 01:35:38,919
Speaker 25: from Memphis, I just wanted to say when people insertain

1645
01:35:38,960 --> 01:35:43,280
Speaker 25: themselves into an active police or like emergency situation, the

1646
01:35:43,400 --> 01:35:47,480
Speaker 25: risk of serious injury or death increases dramatically. Not because

1647
01:35:48,040 --> 01:35:51,599
Speaker 25: anyone wants that outcome, but because the scenes are volatile

1648
01:35:51,640 --> 01:35:56,360
Speaker 25: and they're fast moving, they're dangerous. We're trained as responders

1649
01:35:56,360 --> 01:36:00,280
Speaker 25: to control the scenes precisely, and sometimes that look like

1650
01:36:00,400 --> 01:36:02,760
Speaker 25: us the force, and that's not always brutality.

1651
01:36:04,360 --> 01:36:08,479
Speaker 2: Yeah, Kendall again for me the issue, I mean again,

1652
01:36:08,840 --> 01:36:11,600
Speaker 2: don't get don't hear me wrong here. The issue is

1653
01:36:11,640 --> 01:36:14,599
Speaker 2: not the shooting, right, I mean, that'll be investigated and

1654
01:36:14,760 --> 01:36:17,360
Speaker 2: great for me. The issue is the moment that guy

1655
01:36:17,439 --> 01:36:21,800
Speaker 2: decided to insert himself into an active crime scene. That,

1656
01:36:21,960 --> 01:36:24,160
Speaker 2: to me, is is the problem.

1657
01:36:24,960 --> 01:36:28,559
Speaker 25: Exactly because like I just said, they're volatile, they're fast moving,

1658
01:36:28,600 --> 01:36:34,639
Speaker 25: they're dangerous. The when when people insert themselves it creates

1659
01:36:35,600 --> 01:36:41,519
Speaker 25: like labeling events as brutality, it creates an issue that

1660
01:36:41,640 --> 01:36:44,559
Speaker 25: is not real in the in the in the in

1661
01:36:44,600 --> 01:36:45,560
Speaker 25: the moments.

1662
01:36:46,800 --> 01:36:50,160
Speaker 2: I remember, crowd, I'm sorry, go ahead, finish your thought there, Kendall.

1663
01:36:50,560 --> 01:36:54,040
Speaker 25: So like it doesn't like when crowds interfere with the scene,

1664
01:36:54,080 --> 01:36:56,920
Speaker 25: It doesn't protect lives. It only makes the outcomes worse

1665
01:36:57,080 --> 01:36:58,559
Speaker 25: and the investigation harder.

1666
01:36:58,560 --> 01:37:01,880
Speaker 2: Is I guess what I'm trying to say, And that's

1667
01:37:01,960 --> 01:37:04,719
Speaker 2: fair enough. You know the question I would have from

1668
01:37:04,760 --> 01:37:09,400
Speaker 2: from the federal side, Okay, are you guys adequately trained

1669
01:37:09,439 --> 01:37:12,840
Speaker 2: to go into these urban centers like this and if

1670
01:37:12,880 --> 01:37:15,400
Speaker 2: there is a crime scene, secure that crime scene so

1671
01:37:15,880 --> 01:37:18,240
Speaker 2: your arresting officers can go and do what they need

1672
01:37:18,280 --> 01:37:21,200
Speaker 2: to do. And you've got others around guarding and I

1673
01:37:21,680 --> 01:37:24,599
Speaker 2: don't know, I haven't you know, there's not a lot

1674
01:37:24,600 --> 01:37:28,040
Speaker 2: of video of what led up to the incident. That

1675
01:37:28,080 --> 01:37:30,679
Speaker 2: would be my only issue is were there enough federal

1676
01:37:30,720 --> 01:37:33,320
Speaker 2: agents there to secure that scene?

1677
01:37:34,240 --> 01:37:34,559
Speaker 5: Yeah?

1678
01:37:34,600 --> 01:37:36,800
Speaker 25: And you know, I think people are right to care

1679
01:37:36,960 --> 01:37:40,759
Speaker 25: about like accountability and justice, but I feel like justice

1680
01:37:40,800 --> 01:37:45,280
Speaker 25: requires like facts, not interference, and like safety also requires

1681
01:37:45,320 --> 01:37:47,920
Speaker 25: like space. So you have to, like you just said,

1682
01:37:48,000 --> 01:37:51,120
Speaker 25: you have to give those responders the opportunity to respond

1683
01:37:51,160 --> 01:37:55,240
Speaker 25: to these issues, right Jendell.

1684
01:37:55,320 --> 01:37:57,679
Speaker 2: I have to imagine, you know, go back to Renee Good,

1685
01:37:57,840 --> 01:37:59,640
Speaker 2: you know, and they're all, oh, well, she was a

1686
01:37:59,720 --> 01:38:02,600
Speaker 2: mother or three, drop your kids off whatever. You know

1687
01:38:02,640 --> 01:38:04,439
Speaker 2: what those officers don't know any of that. You know

1688
01:38:04,520 --> 01:38:06,920
Speaker 2: what they know that a person behind the wheel of

1689
01:38:06,960 --> 01:38:09,040
Speaker 2: the vans trying to run them over. That's what they know.

1690
01:38:09,920 --> 01:38:14,400
Speaker 25: Absolutely in an emergency situation or a police encounter, safety

1691
01:38:14,479 --> 01:38:18,719
Speaker 25: it's always always always the first like when bystanders step

1692
01:38:18,760 --> 01:38:22,160
Speaker 25: into scenes, tactic scenes, the risk of fears injury, like

1693
01:38:22,200 --> 01:38:25,360
Speaker 25: I said, to begin with, Jeth rises, It rises fast

1694
01:38:25,439 --> 01:38:28,960
Speaker 25: for everyone involved, for the officers, for the perpetrator, for

1695
01:38:29,120 --> 01:38:32,320
Speaker 25: the person that's trying to help the perpetrator. Not every

1696
01:38:32,439 --> 01:38:35,519
Speaker 25: use of forces brutality and every incident deserves to be

1697
01:38:35,600 --> 01:38:38,160
Speaker 25: judged on an evidence in policy.

1698
01:38:37,760 --> 01:38:38,720
Speaker 12: Not politics.

1699
01:38:39,000 --> 01:38:42,120
Speaker 2: Well, this is good advice, Kendall. What your first responder?

1700
01:38:42,160 --> 01:38:42,680
Speaker 2: What do you do?

1701
01:38:44,160 --> 01:38:45,800
Speaker 25: I'm a paramedic, all right.

1702
01:38:45,840 --> 01:38:48,559
Speaker 2: Well, and you guys are right there at the on

1703
01:38:48,640 --> 01:38:51,320
Speaker 2: the front line, so well, God bless you, Kendall, and

1704
01:38:51,520 --> 01:38:53,839
Speaker 2: you be safe out there. And we really do appreciate

1705
01:38:53,880 --> 01:38:57,200
Speaker 2: your intel. This is very very helpful to figuring out

1706
01:38:57,600 --> 01:39:00,120
Speaker 2: how this is going to play out. Let's go to

1707
01:39:00,400 --> 01:39:05,360
Speaker 2: Ron in Newburgh, North Carolina, the talk station. What a great,

1708
01:39:05,400 --> 01:39:07,920
Speaker 2: great radio station. Hi, Ron, what's going on?

1709
01:39:10,000 --> 01:39:12,360
Speaker 3: I just wanted to respond on how they were taking

1710
01:39:12,600 --> 01:39:15,400
Speaker 3: the lady that called and said about the man that

1711
01:39:15,560 --> 01:39:21,040
Speaker 3: was talking about how they responded, she was right. Now,

1712
01:39:21,200 --> 01:39:24,200
Speaker 3: let me say this, if I was a military police

1713
01:39:24,240 --> 01:39:28,920
Speaker 3: for twenty eight years Army, when you go to apprehend

1714
01:39:28,960 --> 01:39:33,280
Speaker 3: a person, you used a minimum force necessary to do

1715
01:39:33,360 --> 01:39:36,840
Speaker 3: the job. You will do the job. Let me say

1716
01:39:36,880 --> 01:39:42,880
Speaker 3: that that was our matto. Okay. If a person's resist,

1717
01:39:43,160 --> 01:39:45,760
Speaker 3: then what our format was was to get him on

1718
01:39:45,800 --> 01:39:49,720
Speaker 3: the ground and didn't get them a cuffed. But if

1719
01:39:49,760 --> 01:39:51,680
Speaker 3: I go up to them and I say, but you

1720
01:39:51,800 --> 01:39:54,559
Speaker 3: come with me, and if I don't have to touch them,

1721
01:39:54,720 --> 01:39:57,280
Speaker 3: that's the way I went, you need to get into car, sir,

1722
01:39:58,080 --> 01:40:02,120
Speaker 3: that did nnimum force, so thority due to job putt

1723
01:40:02,120 --> 01:40:06,400
Speaker 3: them on the ground, putting cuffs on them. That is

1724
01:40:06,600 --> 01:40:08,360
Speaker 3: what you might say, getting a little bit to a

1725
01:40:08,400 --> 01:40:14,559
Speaker 3: maximum force because of person decided to resist. Now, I

1726
01:40:14,600 --> 01:40:16,800
Speaker 3: was on an active duty my last time in two

1727
01:40:18,680 --> 01:40:21,320
Speaker 3: thousand and four. They may have changed the rules, but

1728
01:40:21,400 --> 01:40:23,240
Speaker 3: I can't see them changing them that much.

1729
01:40:24,640 --> 01:40:27,559
Speaker 2: Ron. I'm just curious though, I mean, based on what

1730
01:40:27,600 --> 01:40:31,360
Speaker 2: you've seen, and it seems as though all of these agitators,

1731
01:40:31,400 --> 01:40:36,120
Speaker 2: these writers, they've been taught or instructed or coached to

1732
01:40:36,280 --> 01:40:40,640
Speaker 2: actively resist being arrested. I haven't seen any of them

1733
01:40:40,680 --> 01:40:43,599
Speaker 2: going in peace. So at that point, and you've got

1734
01:40:43,640 --> 01:40:47,519
Speaker 2: somebody who's fighting you that will not comply with your orders,

1735
01:40:47,840 --> 01:40:49,360
Speaker 2: what do you do at that point?

1736
01:40:50,840 --> 01:40:54,519
Speaker 3: That's when you have to elevate the amount of force

1737
01:40:54,560 --> 01:40:57,599
Speaker 3: you could use. Now, when I first became an MP,

1738
01:40:57,960 --> 01:41:00,280
Speaker 3: the only thing we had was a night stick and

1739
01:41:00,320 --> 01:41:05,320
Speaker 3: then our gun. Now they have costly a night stick,

1740
01:41:06,160 --> 01:41:10,120
Speaker 3: they've got pepper spray and the god other levels of force,

1741
01:41:10,280 --> 01:41:14,280
Speaker 3: so they can elevate one at a time. And I'm

1742
01:41:14,280 --> 01:41:16,680
Speaker 3: not going to I don't let me say this I

1743
01:41:16,680 --> 01:41:20,160
Speaker 3: would not want to have to use lethal force, but

1744
01:41:20,280 --> 01:41:22,920
Speaker 3: it appears that's what someone are doing. They're getting them

1745
01:41:22,920 --> 01:41:26,680
Speaker 3: elevated to where they've got to prove they basically have

1746
01:41:26,760 --> 01:41:31,200
Speaker 3: to pull their gun and once that happens, your train

1747
01:41:31,479 --> 01:41:36,240
Speaker 3: shoots center a mass that is to stop the attack.

1748
01:41:37,800 --> 01:41:40,799
Speaker 2: And that's when your training kicks into air again. They'll

1749
01:41:40,840 --> 01:41:44,320
Speaker 2: investigate this and analyze it. When you go back and listen,

1750
01:41:44,479 --> 01:41:48,760
Speaker 2: you hear one gunshot and then there's a pause, and

1751
01:41:48,800 --> 01:41:52,880
Speaker 2: it's just it's a pretty sustained pause, and then you

1752
01:41:52,880 --> 01:41:56,160
Speaker 2: you hear rapid gunfire after that. What does what does

1753
01:41:56,200 --> 01:41:59,040
Speaker 2: that tell you? Ron? Any? Can you give us any

1754
01:41:59,080 --> 01:41:59,880
Speaker 2: insight there?

1755
01:42:01,200 --> 01:42:05,799
Speaker 3: Okay, this is what I would think. That's the perpetrator demand.

1756
01:42:05,880 --> 01:42:10,439
Speaker 3: They put down keys shot first, and at that point

1757
01:42:11,080 --> 01:42:15,160
Speaker 3: possibly every agent bearer could have pulled a weapon to shoot.

1758
01:42:16,200 --> 01:42:20,080
Speaker 3: Now what now? The Democrats right now they want to

1759
01:42:20,360 --> 01:42:27,040
Speaker 3: in Congress and the Senate, they want to defund.

1760
01:42:26,760 --> 01:42:28,240
Speaker 2: Ice. They want to defund ice.

1761
01:42:29,160 --> 01:42:31,320
Speaker 3: They want to defund ice. Do you know what the

1762
01:42:31,400 --> 01:42:35,960
Speaker 3: big thing on that ICE bill is the biggest itement.

1763
01:42:36,040 --> 01:42:40,479
Speaker 3: They got twelve million dollars appropriated to make sure that

1764
01:42:40,640 --> 01:42:47,000
Speaker 3: every ICE agent has a body camera and for you

1765
01:42:47,080 --> 01:42:49,120
Speaker 3: to say you don't want them to have it. That

1766
01:42:49,360 --> 01:42:53,680
Speaker 3: is completely stupid. You do not want any truth investigation

1767
01:42:55,160 --> 01:42:58,600
Speaker 3: because then you've got a bunch of photos them to

1768
01:42:58,760 --> 01:43:03,200
Speaker 3: read you to see who did What? Has I heard

1769
01:43:03,240 --> 01:43:06,639
Speaker 3: of judge say? And he's a friend of mine, he's

1770
01:43:06,640 --> 01:43:11,000
Speaker 3: a district court judge, superior court judge. He said, when

1771
01:43:11,000 --> 01:43:13,720
Speaker 3: you go in court and there's a crime, there is

1772
01:43:13,840 --> 01:43:18,519
Speaker 3: three sides to the story. There's what the defense says,

1773
01:43:18,680 --> 01:43:21,960
Speaker 3: there's what the prosecutor says, and then there's somewhere in

1774
01:43:22,040 --> 01:43:27,280
Speaker 3: between his purs what really happened. Well, video will tell

1775
01:43:27,320 --> 01:43:27,879
Speaker 3: you what.

1776
01:43:27,760 --> 01:43:30,160
Speaker 2: Really that's and that's the part of that video. I

1777
01:43:30,240 --> 01:43:34,080
Speaker 2: think you're Yeah, you're absolutely right, Ron, this is great information.

1778
01:43:34,560 --> 01:43:37,280
Speaker 2: Thank you for calling in today and thank you for listening.

1779
01:43:37,920 --> 01:43:42,680
Speaker 2: Let's go to Memphis, Tennessee. Tong is listening to us

1780
01:43:42,720 --> 01:43:45,760
Speaker 2: on k W A M. Hintong. What's on your mind?

1781
01:43:46,760 --> 01:43:48,360
Speaker 9: Hey, Tom, you're doing good.

1782
01:43:48,520 --> 01:43:49,839
Speaker 2: I'm well. Thank you for asking.

1783
01:43:51,560 --> 01:43:55,400
Speaker 9: Yeah, I wanted to reply and respond to the gentleman

1784
01:43:55,479 --> 01:43:55,840
Speaker 9: out here.

1785
01:43:56,760 --> 01:43:58,120
Speaker 4: Is that what?

1786
01:44:00,040 --> 01:44:02,240
Speaker 9: But the shooting was not justified.

1787
01:44:02,360 --> 01:44:03,120
Speaker 5: I would like to.

1788
01:44:03,000 --> 01:44:08,559
Speaker 9: Compare that to January six, when Ashley was shot by

1789
01:44:09,560 --> 01:44:14,080
Speaker 9: police I'm pretty sure she was practicing her post at amandment,

1790
01:44:14,560 --> 01:44:18,519
Speaker 9: which is yeah, processing, and she did not she did

1791
01:44:18,560 --> 01:44:24,280
Speaker 9: not bomb herself. Yes, she got shot anyway, nobody somebody

1792
01:44:24,280 --> 01:44:28,360
Speaker 9: on the left criticide that believe nobody.

1793
01:44:29,960 --> 01:44:32,400
Speaker 2: Well, that's true, and that's a fair point, is that

1794
01:44:32,439 --> 01:44:34,599
Speaker 2: nobody has raised that as a matter of fact, that

1795
01:44:34,600 --> 01:44:39,360
Speaker 2: that very issue, the selective indignation, was brought up at

1796
01:44:39,400 --> 01:44:43,600
Speaker 2: the Lighthouse Press briefing this afternoon with Caroline Levitt and

1797
01:44:43,720 --> 01:44:47,680
Speaker 2: Ashley Babbitt J six getting ready to well, they were

1798
01:44:47,720 --> 01:44:51,040
Speaker 2: already inside the Capitol. They were trying to storm the

1799
01:44:51,520 --> 01:44:55,479
Speaker 2: house chamber when one of the law enforcement officers there

1800
01:44:55,560 --> 01:45:00,160
Speaker 2: opened fire and killed her right there on the spot.

1801
01:45:01,880 --> 01:45:07,519
Speaker 9: Yeah, yeah, lad they have have a short memory about

1802
01:45:07,640 --> 01:45:08,560
Speaker 9: the incidents.

1803
01:45:09,200 --> 01:45:12,599
Speaker 13: And these are the same people who couple months before

1804
01:45:12,720 --> 01:45:15,840
Speaker 13: that that de fund the police and then sun Arow

1805
01:45:16,280 --> 01:45:21,120
Speaker 13: went generally, it happened rat the capital of police. Not

1806
01:45:21,240 --> 01:45:23,400
Speaker 13: if I'm back in a battle police and.

1807
01:45:24,840 --> 01:45:25,639
Speaker 9: For doing that job.

1808
01:45:26,160 --> 01:45:29,439
Speaker 2: Well, it's it's yeah, and what happened on J six,

1809
01:45:29,479 --> 01:45:32,919
Speaker 2: and I I stand, I'm in a very different position

1810
01:45:33,280 --> 01:45:36,040
Speaker 2: my opinions of what happened on that day. I mean,

1811
01:45:36,080 --> 01:45:39,519
Speaker 2: if I'm you know, if I'm a law abiding American citizen,

1812
01:45:39,560 --> 01:45:43,920
Speaker 2: why am I trying to smash through glass and storm

1813
01:45:43,920 --> 01:45:48,640
Speaker 2: my way into the House chamber. The people on the

1814
01:45:48,680 --> 01:45:51,720
Speaker 2: other side of that glass, the law enforcement there, they

1815
01:45:51,720 --> 01:45:54,880
Speaker 2: were tasked with a single thing, which is to protect

1816
01:45:55,040 --> 01:45:59,280
Speaker 2: the lawmakers inside the House chamber, and at that point

1817
01:45:59,680 --> 01:46:02,400
Speaker 2: they had no idea if any of those people were

1818
01:46:02,560 --> 01:46:05,760
Speaker 2: armed at all. And again this has been debated, and

1819
01:46:05,840 --> 01:46:07,880
Speaker 2: I know I am on the other side of this

1820
01:46:07,960 --> 01:46:10,160
Speaker 2: issue with a lot of folks in the conservative movement.

1821
01:46:10,520 --> 01:46:13,600
Speaker 2: But again my contention is, if you're going to be

1822
01:46:13,680 --> 01:46:17,040
Speaker 2: law abiding, be law abiding. Tom gott to go. Thank

1823
01:46:17,080 --> 01:46:19,519
Speaker 2: you for that call, and I think we can work

1824
01:46:19,520 --> 01:46:23,240
Speaker 2: at another before we go to break. Let's go to Idaho. Manny, Manny,

1825
01:46:23,320 --> 01:46:24,719
Speaker 2: what is on your mind today?

1826
01:46:26,320 --> 01:46:30,080
Speaker 24: Well, great show there, Tom, you wanted to address that

1827
01:46:31,120 --> 01:46:36,000
Speaker 24: the situation in Minnesota. You know, I honestly believe that

1828
01:46:36,280 --> 01:46:40,840
Speaker 24: the mayor and of course the governor there, all you

1829
01:46:40,880 --> 01:46:44,559
Speaker 24: gotta do is follow the money, because the mayor is

1830
01:46:44,640 --> 01:46:47,680
Speaker 24: given the order to the police chief to tell his

1831
01:46:47,880 --> 01:46:51,719
Speaker 24: people to stand down, not enforcement. Most officers. I serve

1832
01:46:51,760 --> 01:46:56,360
Speaker 24: this to police officers in Mexico. Most laws. Most officers

1833
01:46:56,600 --> 01:46:59,679
Speaker 24: go out there and do their job, rest their life

1834
01:47:00,040 --> 01:47:03,679
Speaker 24: every minute around duty, and it's not appreciated. Okay, that's

1835
01:47:03,760 --> 01:47:07,920
Speaker 24: number one. Number two, if you got a police chief

1836
01:47:08,640 --> 01:47:12,000
Speaker 24: this corrupt. In other words, he does whatever the mayor

1837
01:47:12,080 --> 01:47:16,840
Speaker 24: tells him to do, and it happens all over the country. Todd.

1838
01:47:17,840 --> 01:47:21,240
Speaker 24: The police, the actual police officers, their hands are tied.

1839
01:47:21,280 --> 01:47:23,880
Speaker 24: They're not gonna and they disobey the order, they'll be

1840
01:47:23,920 --> 01:47:27,439
Speaker 24: fired or worse, you know. And that's the one thing

1841
01:47:27,479 --> 01:47:30,840
Speaker 24: that I hadn't heard before, you know, And the only

1842
01:47:30,880 --> 01:47:32,519
Speaker 24: thing I other think I want to chime in on

1843
01:47:32,720 --> 01:47:36,160
Speaker 24: was this guy Mike from Memphis. He has no idea

1844
01:47:36,200 --> 01:47:39,200
Speaker 24: what he's talking about, you know, he kept he was

1845
01:47:39,240 --> 01:47:42,680
Speaker 24: adamant about the fact that that lady was slammed to

1846
01:47:42,760 --> 01:47:47,120
Speaker 24: the ground. You know, having been there, you use as

1847
01:47:47,200 --> 01:47:51,280
Speaker 24: much force as needed to stop the action. That is

1848
01:47:51,280 --> 01:47:52,799
Speaker 24: one hundred percent the way it is.

1849
01:47:53,439 --> 01:47:55,800
Speaker 2: And to do it as quickly as possible. Many I

1850
01:47:55,840 --> 01:47:57,240
Speaker 2: have to imagine, yes, sir.

1851
01:47:57,520 --> 01:48:00,840
Speaker 24: Yes, sir, as quickly as possible, because something like that

1852
01:48:00,960 --> 01:48:03,800
Speaker 24: and a split second, it can turn on you and

1853
01:48:03,920 --> 01:48:05,639
Speaker 24: you probably are not going to get any help from

1854
01:48:05,640 --> 01:48:09,240
Speaker 24: the people standing by. They'll be too busy videotaping that

1855
01:48:09,400 --> 01:48:12,000
Speaker 24: officers behind being handed to them.

1856
01:48:12,439 --> 01:48:13,920
Speaker 11: That's when they starts taping usually.

1857
01:48:15,000 --> 01:48:17,599
Speaker 2: Well, and that's it. And that's my point is I

1858
01:48:17,640 --> 01:48:20,920
Speaker 2: want to see the video leading up to that moment.

1859
01:48:21,080 --> 01:48:24,200
Speaker 2: That's the video, because typically when you see the video,

1860
01:48:24,439 --> 01:48:27,320
Speaker 2: you get a pretty good indication of what really happened.

1861
01:48:28,400 --> 01:48:31,599
Speaker 24: Yes, sir, that's true, you know. And and the bottom

1862
01:48:31,680 --> 01:48:37,080
Speaker 24: line is that you know, I law enforcement, that those

1863
01:48:37,120 --> 01:48:41,360
Speaker 24: police offers are being told to not not answer calls,

1864
01:48:41,560 --> 01:48:45,280
Speaker 24: just stay put, you know, make themselves invisible. That's what

1865
01:48:45,320 --> 01:48:49,160
Speaker 24: they're being told that by the mayor and the justice requirement.

1866
01:48:49,240 --> 01:48:53,240
Speaker 24: He has to look into why that's being done. Why

1867
01:48:53,360 --> 01:48:55,720
Speaker 24: is the governor and why why is the mayor so

1868
01:48:56,400 --> 01:48:58,920
Speaker 24: adamant about, you know, trying to get rid of ice

1869
01:48:59,040 --> 01:49:02,120
Speaker 24: and then throw ice at out of that state. There's

1870
01:49:02,160 --> 01:49:03,759
Speaker 24: a reason for that, and it's money.

1871
01:49:03,840 --> 01:49:06,000
Speaker 2: It's a great point. And Manny, you know another point

1872
01:49:06,000 --> 01:49:08,040
Speaker 2: of this. I was shocked to hear the numbers of

1873
01:49:08,160 --> 01:49:10,280
Speaker 2: the police chief is saying we've only they've only got

1874
01:49:10,320 --> 01:49:14,680
Speaker 2: six hundred police officers. That's that's shocking. But my understanding

1875
01:49:14,760 --> 01:49:18,360
Speaker 2: is back in twenty twenty they had a massive reduction

1876
01:49:18,520 --> 01:49:21,479
Speaker 2: in the number of officers, some three hundred officers, So

1877
01:49:21,520 --> 01:49:23,800
Speaker 2: that tells me they are probably not at their full

1878
01:49:23,840 --> 01:49:27,080
Speaker 2: complement of officers for a city the size of Minneapolis.

1879
01:49:28,240 --> 01:49:30,280
Speaker 24: Yes, sir, well on the thing too. If you have

1880
01:49:30,360 --> 01:49:33,799
Speaker 24: a mayor that acts the way I think he is acting,

1881
01:49:34,560 --> 01:49:37,360
Speaker 24: most police officers are not going to want to serve

1882
01:49:37,640 --> 01:49:41,400
Speaker 24: under that because he's the one controlling the police chief

1883
01:49:42,080 --> 01:49:45,120
Speaker 24: and is a police chief has no backbones, and then

1884
01:49:45,120 --> 01:49:48,120
Speaker 24: this is the end result. They just stay put and

1885
01:49:48,160 --> 01:49:48,599
Speaker 24: do nothing.

1886
01:49:48,760 --> 01:49:51,639
Speaker 2: Yeah, that is a fair point. And yeah, the police

1887
01:49:51,720 --> 01:49:54,840
Speaker 2: chief not a big fan of that guy. O'Hara is

1888
01:49:54,880 --> 01:49:57,280
Speaker 2: his name. Hey Manny, I've got to run a great

1889
01:49:57,320 --> 01:49:59,280
Speaker 2: hearing from you, my friend, and they give us a

1890
01:49:59,320 --> 01:50:03,120
Speaker 2: holler back police stuff. I love that, all right? Nine

1891
01:50:03,120 --> 01:50:06,240
Speaker 2: oh one two six zero five nine two six. This

1892
01:50:06,280 --> 01:50:07,520
Speaker 2: is the Todd Sterns.

1893
01:50:07,160 --> 01:50:15,679
Speaker 4: Show, all right.

1894
01:50:15,880 --> 01:50:20,120
Speaker 2: Politico's got the headline up and this is very accurate. Actually,

1895
01:50:21,160 --> 01:50:24,960
Speaker 2: I shootings are freaking out the GOP. They're afraid to

1896
01:50:25,000 --> 01:50:32,799
Speaker 2: tell Trump. This story posted by Jonathan Martin. He says

1897
01:50:32,840 --> 01:50:35,240
Speaker 2: to cover the Republican Party in the age of Trump

1898
01:50:35,360 --> 01:50:41,240
Speaker 2: requires a grasp of cryptology because of the unflinching, unflinching

1899
01:50:41,360 --> 01:50:46,720
Speaker 2: personal loyalty he demands, and punishment he'll administer on public dissenters,

1900
01:50:47,200 --> 01:50:54,639
Speaker 2: leading GOP officials to speak in rhetorical code. And that's

1901
01:50:54,680 --> 01:50:58,240
Speaker 2: the way they're looking at this in the Politico piece

1902
01:51:00,080 --> 01:51:04,000
Speaker 2: ration broadly, as one veteran senator granted anonymity to speak

1903
01:51:04,000 --> 01:51:07,840
Speaker 2: candidly over the weekend, said, is for the GOP is

1904
01:51:07,880 --> 01:51:10,800
Speaker 2: for the GOP what healthcare is for the Democrats a

1905
01:51:11,000 --> 01:51:14,880
Speaker 2: home game. Yet, with viral images of Americans being shot

1906
01:51:14,920 --> 01:51:19,000
Speaker 2: in broad daylight replacing migrants stampeding across the country's border,

1907
01:51:19,640 --> 01:51:25,000
Speaker 2: that advantage is quickly dissipating. They're now pleading with Trump

1908
01:51:25,000 --> 01:51:28,120
Speaker 2: and his advisors in private to calm tensions, as a

1909
01:51:28,160 --> 01:51:31,360
Speaker 2: handful did this weekend. However, most officials hope one of

1910
01:51:31,360 --> 01:51:34,080
Speaker 2: their colleagues can do that work so they don't have

1911
01:51:34,200 --> 01:51:37,080
Speaker 2: to play the heavy You can talk to them, or

1912
01:51:37,200 --> 01:51:40,040
Speaker 2: can you talk to them? Or phrases I don't need

1913
01:51:40,160 --> 01:51:43,240
Speaker 2: access to text change to know are being relayed between

1914
01:51:43,240 --> 01:51:48,559
Speaker 2: top Republicans when lawmakers do reach Trump. The dialogue is

1915
01:51:48,600 --> 01:51:52,880
Speaker 2: similar to those private messages he posted last week from

1916
01:51:52,920 --> 01:51:58,280
Speaker 2: European leaders eager to get him off his Greenland fetish.

1917
01:51:58,600 --> 01:52:01,400
Speaker 2: Start with praise and flatter before moving to the heart

1918
01:52:01,479 --> 01:52:06,479
Speaker 2: of the matter. The first shift emerged Sunday night. In

1919
01:52:06,520 --> 01:52:09,559
Speaker 2: an interview with The Wall Street Journal, Trump declined to

1920
01:52:09,600 --> 01:52:13,400
Speaker 2: say the officer who killed Alex pretty had done the

1921
01:52:13,520 --> 01:52:16,680
Speaker 2: right thing, and pronounced that quote. We're reviewing everything and

1922
01:52:16,720 --> 01:52:20,000
Speaker 2: we'll come out with the determination that came. It barely

1923
01:52:20,080 --> 01:52:23,719
Speaker 2: requires noting. All of one day after Trump justified the killing,

1924
01:52:24,080 --> 01:52:28,080
Speaker 2: and his lieutenants did as well in even starker terms,

1925
01:52:29,000 --> 01:52:33,400
Speaker 2: Monday morning, Trump took concrete steps to marginalize GNOME and

1926
01:52:33,560 --> 01:52:37,360
Speaker 2: Border Patrol Trief Chief Gregory Bavino, who has become the

1927
01:52:37,360 --> 01:52:43,639
Speaker 2: face of the FEDS in Minnesota. So we understand. Holman

1928
01:52:43,800 --> 01:52:47,360
Speaker 2: is expected to be in Minneapolis later this evening. Trump

1929
01:52:47,400 --> 01:52:50,839
Speaker 2: says Tom is tough but fair and will report directly

1930
01:52:50,960 --> 01:52:56,920
Speaker 2: to me. So there you go. That's where we're at. Now. Look,

1931
01:52:57,000 --> 01:53:01,519
Speaker 2: I don't necessarily have a problem with any of this,

1932
01:53:02,479 --> 01:53:04,960
Speaker 2: but the reality is, and this is where it's going

1933
01:53:05,040 --> 01:53:08,760
Speaker 2: to get squirrely. This is going to happen again, which

1934
01:53:08,800 --> 01:53:11,439
Speaker 2: is why the President needs to bring shock in awe

1935
01:53:12,200 --> 01:53:15,240
Speaker 2: and get this situation in Minneapolis under control. I mean,

1936
01:53:15,240 --> 01:53:19,240
Speaker 2: it really is that simple, all right, folks, we've got

1937
01:53:19,320 --> 01:53:21,519
Speaker 2: a government shutdown looming. We're going to get to all

1938
01:53:21,560 --> 01:53:24,599
Speaker 2: of that tomorrow. In the meantime, you folks be safe

1939
01:53:24,640 --> 01:53:26,799
Speaker 2: out there. We're certainly praying for all of you storm

1940
01:53:26,920 --> 01:53:29,680
Speaker 2: victims and hope the lights come back on soon. He

1941
01:53:29,800 --> 01:53:30,519
Speaker 2: go to America.
