Speaker 1: and deadliest of fire the lawsuit claims was entirely avoidable.

9
00:00:40,760 --> 00:00:45,280

Speaker 1: Now that senator is attacking Trump for having removed the

12
00:00:54,040 --> 00:00:59,320
Speaker 1: dictator that this senator claimed should have been removed. Polls

13
00:00:59,320 --> 00:01:02,600
Speaker 1: show American evenly divided on the support for the ouster

14
00:01:02,720 --> 00:01:09,800

Speaker 1: Doug LaMalfa has died at the age of sixty five

30
00:02:22,840 --> 00:02:27,239
Speaker 1: years old. President Trump said today, quote I wanted to

31
00:02:27,240 --> 00:02:32,200
Speaker 1: express our tremendous sorrow at the loss of a great member, great, great,

32
00:02:32,280 --> 00:02:36,680
Speaker 1: great member, Congressman Doug LaMalfa, who passed away yesterday, as

33
00:02:36,720 --> 00:02:42,600
Speaker 1: you probably heard. End of quote. House Speaker Mike Johnson said,

34
00:02:42,720 --> 00:02:45,520
Speaker 1: quote Congress is devastated to learn this morning of the

35
00:02:45,600 --> 00:02:49,760
Speaker 1: passing of our dear friend and colleague, Doug LaMalfa. Doug,

36
00:02:49,800 --> 00:02:52,800
Speaker 1: he said, was a lifelong resident of northern California and

37
00:02:52,840 --> 00:02:55,840
Speaker 1: deeply loved his people. He was a fierce fighter for

38
00:02:55,919 --> 00:03:04,200
Speaker 1: his state's vast natural resources and beauty. House majority with

39
00:03:04,400 --> 00:03:09,920
Speaker 1: Tom Emmer posted this, Jackie and I are devastated about

40
00:03:09,919 --> 00:03:12,839
Speaker 1: the sudden loss of our friend, Congressman Doug LaMalfa. Doug

41
00:03:12,960 --> 00:03:16,920
Speaker 1: was a loving father and husband and staunch advocate for

42
00:03:16,960 --> 00:03:22,480
Speaker 1: its constituents in rural America. End of quote. Doug LaMalfa

43
00:03:22,639 --> 00:03:27,160
Speaker 1: was one of only two Republican members of the California

44
00:03:27,240 --> 00:03:31,880
Speaker 1: delegation who openly supported me for governor. The other Wastelle

45
00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:36,560
Speaker 1: Michelle Steele, and I barely knew Doug LaMalfa before he

46
00:03:36,640 --> 00:03:42,840
Speaker 1: endorsed me. His jurisdiction was in northern California, and we

47
00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:46,320
Speaker 1: talked a lot about water rights and about the failure

48
00:03:46,360 --> 00:03:51,400
Speaker 1: of the state to prepare for fires and the need

49
00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:55,600
Speaker 1: for better water infrastructure. So I got to know him

50
00:03:55,600 --> 00:03:59,320
Speaker 1: pretty well, and he was such a down to earth

51
00:04:01,080 --> 00:04:05,920
Speaker 1: likable guy. Reminded me of Andy Griffith, Andy of Mayberry.

52
00:04:07,920 --> 00:04:12,880
Speaker 1: He was a farmer, he was unpretentious. I heard him

53
00:04:12,880 --> 00:04:14,720
Speaker 1: speak once and I went up to him and I said,

54
00:04:15,280 --> 00:04:17,599
Speaker 1: had he always been this relaxed in front of an audience, says, oh, no,

55
00:04:17,960 --> 00:04:20,000
Speaker 1: I was a terrible speaker. At one time. I was

56
00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:22,440
Speaker 1: very self conscious. But the more I did it, the

57
00:04:22,480 --> 00:04:24,840
Speaker 1: more I got loose, and I got comfortable, and now

58
00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:28,000
Speaker 1: I can do it pretty easily. He was a great,

59
00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:37,000
Speaker 1: great man. Meanwhile, another Republican member of the House, Representative

60
00:04:37,279 --> 00:04:41,880
Speaker 1: Jim Baird of Indiana, has been reportedly hospitalized after a

61
00:04:41,880 --> 00:04:47,280
Speaker 1: car accident, Fox News reporting he is in stable condition.

62
00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:51,960
Speaker 2: Now.

63
00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:57,240
Speaker 1: Regarding the oulster of Maduro, a Router's poll found out

64
00:04:57,279 --> 00:05:02,000
Speaker 1: a third of Americans disapprove, a third approve, and about

65
00:05:02,040 --> 00:05:05,080
Speaker 1: a third have no opinion one way or the other.

66
00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:13,400
Speaker 1: I will tell you, however, what Karine Jean Pierre, Biden

67
00:05:13,480 --> 00:05:16,240
Speaker 1: press secretary said about Maduro back in twenty twenty four.

68
00:05:16,360 --> 00:05:17,200
Speaker 1: Number thirty two.

69
00:05:20,240 --> 00:05:24,599
Speaker 3: Quickly turned to Venezuela, where Maduro once again demonstrated his

70
00:05:24,680 --> 00:05:30,720
Speaker 3: complete disregard for democratic norms and proceeded with his illegitimate

71
00:05:30,760 --> 00:05:35,240
Speaker 3: inauguration as president. Biden emphasized during his meeting with President

72
00:05:35,279 --> 00:05:40,400
Speaker 3: elect Edmundo Gonzales Urutio on Monday, January sixth, we believe

73
00:05:40,440 --> 00:05:44,080
Speaker 3: that it is essential that the will of the Venezuelan

74
00:05:44,120 --> 00:05:48,880
Speaker 3: people is respected. In coordination with our partners, We've given

75
00:05:49,040 --> 00:05:53,960
Speaker 3: Maduro and his representatives every opportunity to restore democracy, but

76
00:05:54,040 --> 00:05:57,320
Speaker 3: they haven't. So today we are building on all of

77
00:05:57,360 --> 00:06:01,960
Speaker 3: our previous actions and taking further major actions. We announced

78
00:06:01,960 --> 00:06:05,200
Speaker 3: new sanctions on key Maduro aligned officials as a part

79
00:06:05,240 --> 00:06:08,080
Speaker 3: of our efforts to hold them accountable, and we imposed

80
00:06:08,440 --> 00:06:14,960
Speaker 3: more visa restrictions totaling nearly two thousand individuals. We also

81
00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:17,800
Speaker 3: increased the reward amount to twenty five million dollars for

82
00:06:17,920 --> 00:06:21,680
Speaker 3: Nicholas Maduro and his so called Minister of Interior as

83
00:06:21,760 --> 00:06:25,440
Speaker 3: part of the Department of State's Narcotics Rewards program.

84
00:06:26,320 --> 00:06:30,760
Speaker 1: Increased the reward to twenty five million dollars for his arrest.

85
00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:35,839
Speaker 1: How are you going to achieve that now? This is

86
00:06:36,440 --> 00:06:40,080
Speaker 1: Senator Chris van Holland of Maryland, also way back in

87
00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:42,400
Speaker 1: twenty twenty four, number thirty one.

88
00:06:45,080 --> 00:06:49,160
Speaker 4: Well, we stand with the Venezuelan people, who overwhelmingly, it

89
00:06:49,160 --> 00:06:54,200
Speaker 4: turns out, voted for Bri Gonzalees and against Maduro. This

90
00:06:54,240 --> 00:06:59,320
Speaker 4: is why many of us call immediately for transparency for

91
00:06:59,640 --> 00:07:05,000
Speaker 4: the Magureau government regime to release the results. And there's

92
00:07:05,040 --> 00:07:08,440
Speaker 4: a reason Jose that they hit those results, because we

93
00:07:08,520 --> 00:07:11,960
Speaker 4: now know, because we've seen results that were released by

94
00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:15,040
Speaker 4: some of the opposition figures from about eighty percent of

95
00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:21,000
Speaker 4: the polling places that Gonzales has won comfortably here. And

96
00:07:21,040 --> 00:07:24,920
Speaker 4: so this is clearly an effort to deny the will

97
00:07:24,960 --> 00:07:28,960
Speaker 4: of the people. Duro lost, right, he is trying to

98
00:07:29,080 --> 00:07:33,680
Speaker 4: cling onto this claim of legitimacy that he won when

99
00:07:33,960 --> 00:07:38,240
Speaker 4: all the evidence shows otherwise. So this is why Secretary

100
00:07:38,240 --> 00:07:42,920
Speaker 4: of Blincoln did, in my view, the right thing, recognizing

101
00:07:43,080 --> 00:07:45,760
Speaker 4: the real winner here, Gonzales.

102
00:07:46,280 --> 00:07:47,440
Speaker 1: And this is why the.

103
00:07:47,520 --> 00:07:51,000
Speaker 4: United States is now going to use its levers and

104
00:07:51,120 --> 00:07:56,040
Speaker 4: influence to push for a negotiation to have a transition

105
00:07:56,680 --> 00:08:02,560
Speaker 4: to the truly elected leader guns. Now, obviously we know

106
00:08:02,720 --> 00:08:07,160
Speaker 4: Maduro and his cronies do not want to go quietly

107
00:08:07,720 --> 00:08:09,920
Speaker 4: into the night. But the United States needs to work

108
00:08:09,920 --> 00:08:13,200
Speaker 4: with our partner's allies in the region to ratchet up

109
00:08:13,200 --> 00:08:15,680
Speaker 4: the pressure on behalf of the Venezuelan people.

110
00:08:16,800 --> 00:08:21,960
Speaker 1: To ratchet up the pressure on behalf of the Venezuelan people. Now,

111
00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:29,520
Speaker 1: this is a former Democrat National Committee Press secretary about

112
00:08:29,560 --> 00:08:33,760
Speaker 1: how previous administrations talked a lot about how Maduro should

113
00:08:33,800 --> 00:08:38,160
Speaker 1: go but did nothing about it number twenty two.

114
00:08:41,280 --> 00:08:44,120
Speaker 5: Talk to me about why this hadn't happened before. I mean,

115
00:08:44,160 --> 00:08:48,040
Speaker 5: the charges against the indictment against Maduro and his wife

116
00:08:48,040 --> 00:08:51,240
Speaker 5: started back in twenty twenty under Trump's first term, and

117
00:08:51,320 --> 00:08:54,079
Speaker 5: in trying to catch him and trying to get him,

118
00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:56,840
Speaker 5: he remained in office. If you want to say that

119
00:08:56,880 --> 00:08:59,319
Speaker 5: in quotes, because you've told me before he wasn't legitimate.

120
00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:02,360
Speaker 5: He was addicted Ara Maduro, but then you look at

121
00:09:02,440 --> 00:09:05,480
Speaker 5: the bounty went up to twenty five million, but the

122
00:09:05,520 --> 00:09:09,200
Speaker 5: Biden Harris administration didn't go after him the way that

123
00:09:09,240 --> 00:09:10,800
Speaker 5: we're saying with the Trump administration.

124
00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:13,240
Speaker 1: Look, that's exactly right.

125
00:09:13,280 --> 00:09:16,000
Speaker 6: I mean, there's no question that both Republicans and Democrats

126
00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:18,920
Speaker 6: administration in the past they a whole lot of talk

127
00:09:19,040 --> 00:09:22,320
Speaker 6: but did not followed through. With President Trump, it was different,

128
00:09:22,360 --> 00:09:24,960
Speaker 6: and this is something that Republicans and Democrats here at home.

129
00:09:25,240 --> 00:09:27,800
Speaker 6: She was supported, like you said, former President Biden supported

130
00:09:27,840 --> 00:09:29,760
Speaker 6: this when he was a center so right. I hope

131
00:09:29,800 --> 00:09:34,079
Speaker 6: that my fellow Democrats will will come and support this immediately.

132
00:09:34,240 --> 00:09:36,800
Speaker 6: And let me say also something too for the folks

133
00:09:36,800 --> 00:09:38,880
Speaker 6: that want to be quick in some of my Democratic

134
00:09:38,880 --> 00:09:41,240
Speaker 6: friends and say no, this is Trump trying to take

135
00:09:41,280 --> 00:09:44,040
Speaker 6: the oil and trying to take the old reserves of Venezuela.

136
00:09:44,080 --> 00:09:47,760
Speaker 6: It is true that Venezuela holds the largest old reserve

137
00:09:47,960 --> 00:09:48,680
Speaker 6: in the world.

138
00:09:48,960 --> 00:09:51,480
Speaker 1: But folks, let me be very clear that people who.

139
00:09:51,400 --> 00:09:54,520
Speaker 6: Are controlling the Venezuelan oil today, it's not the Venezuoland

140
00:09:54,559 --> 00:09:58,160
Speaker 6: and it's not America. It's the Chinese, It's Russia, it's Iran,

141
00:09:58,280 --> 00:10:02,040
Speaker 6: it's Hezbolan is hamasd So. I much rather have America

142
00:10:02,320 --> 00:10:06,600
Speaker 6: helping us renbuild a great name of what once was herons.

143
00:10:06,640 --> 00:10:07,760
Speaker 1: Venezuela was the most.

144
00:10:07,559 --> 00:10:10,000
Speaker 6: Powerful country in Latin America, and he can be the

145
00:10:10,120 --> 00:10:12,800
Speaker 6: biggest commercial partner for the United States.

146
00:10:14,200 --> 00:10:17,280
Speaker 1: We come back more about the Democrat hypocrisy on the

147
00:10:17,320 --> 00:10:19,320
Speaker 1: oulster of Maduro. We have Steff and heard from our

150
00:10:25,160 --> 00:10:26,640
Speaker 1: couldn't defend it. I don't know. I could be wrong.

151

175
00:11:43,400 --> 00:11:47,920
Speaker 1: talk about the Somali fraud. President Trump has dispatched some

176
00:11:48,400 --> 00:11:53,040
Speaker 1: two thousand ICE agents to the Minneapolis area, and Governor

177
00:11:53,040 --> 00:11:56,160
Speaker 1: Tim Walls calls it a war on the Somali community.

178
00:11:58,440 --> 00:12:01,480
Speaker 1: About this poll showing the third of American support the

179
00:12:01,520 --> 00:12:03,679
Speaker 1: alster of Maduro or third or not, and the third

180
00:12:04,160 --> 00:12:10,520
Speaker 1: have no opinion. Just over one in ten Democrats supported it,

181
00:12:13,320 --> 00:12:16,679
Speaker 1: two thirds Republicans say they approved, so once again, very

182
00:12:16,679 --> 00:12:21,320
Speaker 1: different reaction, divided by party lines. Back to the former

183
00:12:21,559 --> 00:12:25,679
Speaker 1: Democrat National Committee Press Secretary number twenty three.

184
00:12:26,480 --> 00:12:29,720
Speaker 6: Eric, this is an important, unhistoric day. Let me begin

185
00:12:29,800 --> 00:12:31,400
Speaker 6: by saying that this is a day not only for

186
00:12:31,440 --> 00:12:34,360
Speaker 6: the Venezuelan people that have been oppressed have been killed

187
00:12:34,559 --> 00:12:36,559
Speaker 6: by nicol As Mudura for the last twenty.

188
00:12:36,280 --> 00:12:38,319
Speaker 1: Five years, but it's a great day for America.

189
00:12:38,400 --> 00:12:40,120
Speaker 7: It's a great day for America.

190
00:12:39,760 --> 00:12:43,280
Speaker 6: Because now the leader of the Narco state of Venezuela

191
00:12:43,400 --> 00:12:47,079
Speaker 6: will no longer flawed or country withdraw, will no longer

192
00:12:47,160 --> 00:12:50,560
Speaker 6: kill for American children here at home. And that stops

193
00:12:50,720 --> 00:12:53,920
Speaker 6: one part. In great part, thank you to President Trump,

194
00:12:53,960 --> 00:12:56,400
Speaker 6: and thank you to Secretary of State Marc Ubi.

195
00:12:59,520 --> 00:13:08,120
Speaker 1: Meanwhile, Senator John Fetterman continues as my third most favorite Democrat,

196
00:13:09,160 --> 00:13:12,800
Speaker 1: followed by my mother and my brother Kirk number thirty five.

197
00:13:15,960 --> 00:13:18,280
Speaker 7: I don't know why we can't just acknowledge that it's

198
00:13:18,280 --> 00:13:18,959
Speaker 7: been a good thing.

199
00:13:19,040 --> 00:13:19,720
Speaker 2: What's happened?

200
00:13:20,080 --> 00:13:23,679
Speaker 7: I mean, I mean, I've seen the speeches from whether

201
00:13:23,720 --> 00:13:28,000
Speaker 7: it's Leader Schumer or kinds of past tweets from President Biden.

202
00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:31,040
Speaker 7: Now we all wanted this man gone, and now he

203
00:13:31,200 --> 00:13:34,480
Speaker 7: is gone. I think we should really appreciate exactly what

204
00:13:34,640 --> 00:13:38,440
Speaker 7: happened here and now, remember we all Democrats years ago

205
00:13:38,559 --> 00:13:42,800
Speaker 7: wanted to eliminate him, and they why have a bounty

206
00:13:42,800 --> 00:13:45,559
Speaker 7: of twenty five million dollars if we didn't want him gone?

207
00:13:45,720 --> 00:13:47,840
Speaker 7: Why would you do these things if you weren't willing

208
00:13:47,880 --> 00:13:51,880
Speaker 7: to actually do something other than harsh language. Let's remember

209
00:13:52,280 --> 00:13:57,160
Speaker 7: eight million Venezuelan were displaced and mass chaos, and now

210
00:13:57,200 --> 00:14:00,920
Speaker 7: they were shipping drugs to our nation as well too.

211
00:14:01,400 --> 00:14:06,640
Speaker 7: So for me, it's like, why why, as a Democrat,

212
00:14:07,120 --> 00:14:09,600
Speaker 7: you know, we can't just acknowledge that it was successful.

213
00:14:10,440 --> 00:14:14,920
Speaker 1: So Senator Feederman, you're saying, at one time democrats who

214
00:14:14,920 --> 00:14:19,240
Speaker 1: are criticizing Donald Trump for an illegal act. We're urging

215
00:14:19,320 --> 00:14:23,160
Speaker 1: in illegal act to remove Maduro, and now that Donald

216
00:14:23,200 --> 00:14:27,120
Speaker 1: Trump has followed through, you're criticizing Donald Trump for doing

217
00:14:27,160 --> 00:14:33,200
Speaker 1: something that you want Biden to do. Huh again. This

218
00:14:33,280 --> 00:14:35,240
Speaker 1: is Anna Navarro, one of the co hosts on the

219
00:14:35,320 --> 00:14:36,280
Speaker 1: View number nineteen.

220
00:14:38,840 --> 00:14:39,360
Speaker 8: Your question.

221
00:14:39,400 --> 00:14:40,240
Speaker 9: Who voted for this?

222
00:14:40,520 --> 00:14:43,840
Speaker 8: The people in South Florida, the Venezuelan community, the Cuban

223
00:14:43,880 --> 00:14:47,520
Speaker 8: American community, then a kora when American community voted for this,

224
00:14:47,640 --> 00:14:50,600
Speaker 8: and for us, this is a very very happy day.

225
00:14:50,680 --> 00:14:54,400
Speaker 8: When we see a dictator who has been part of

226
00:14:54,800 --> 00:14:58,840
Speaker 8: oppressing and abusing the Venezuelan people for twenty five years,

227
00:14:58,840 --> 00:15:01,880
Speaker 8: when we see him in handcuffs and held to some

228
00:15:01,920 --> 00:15:04,800
Speaker 8: sort of accountability. It brought me into two tears. It

229
00:15:04,800 --> 00:15:07,920
Speaker 8: brought me great joy. And you know, I live in

230
00:15:07,960 --> 00:15:08,880
Speaker 8: South Florida.

231
00:15:08,960 --> 00:15:10,760
Speaker 1: But those these are you okay with the way that it.

232
00:15:10,800 --> 00:15:12,800
Speaker 8: Was done, But you can I think both things can

233
00:15:12,840 --> 00:15:15,800
Speaker 8: be true. I think you can criticize and ask questions

234
00:15:15,880 --> 00:15:18,560
Speaker 8: and have concerns about the way it was done and

235
00:15:18,600 --> 00:15:20,800
Speaker 8: what this means in the future. And I think you

236
00:15:20,840 --> 00:15:25,800
Speaker 8: can still celebrate that this murderous, corrupt, satistic son of

237
00:15:25,840 --> 00:15:30,160
Speaker 8: a is out of Venezuela. Yeah, because he has I think,

238
00:15:30,240 --> 00:15:34,000
Speaker 8: with eight million Venezuelan exiles all over the world, people

239
00:15:34,040 --> 00:15:37,600
Speaker 8: have fled from this man's tyrannical rule.

240
00:15:37,720 --> 00:15:44,840
Speaker 1: So for me, notice the applause from that left wing audience. Now,

241
00:15:44,880 --> 00:15:50,120
Speaker 1: this is the former CIA Special Ops agent on the

242
00:15:50,160 --> 00:15:54,400
Speaker 1: Morning Joe Show of All Places, number twenty.

243
00:15:54,320 --> 00:16:00,880
Speaker 10: Nine, tal Moropolis. Before we talk about what happens next,

244
00:16:00,920 --> 00:16:06,360
Speaker 10: let's talk about what happened during the attack. And I've

245
00:16:06,360 --> 00:16:10,200
Speaker 10: seen you talk about how this was extraordinarily difficult and

246
00:16:10,280 --> 00:16:14,800
Speaker 10: yet the Military Special Ops CIA, everybody seemed to handle

247
00:16:14,840 --> 00:16:16,360
Speaker 10: it extraordinarily.

248
00:16:15,760 --> 00:16:19,000
Speaker 11: Well, So, Joe, this is really the product of twenty

249
00:16:19,080 --> 00:16:22,440
Speaker 11: years of close coordination between the CIA, my old organization,

250
00:16:22,640 --> 00:16:25,360
Speaker 11: and the Joint Special Operations Command. You know, this started

251
00:16:25,360 --> 00:16:27,800
Speaker 11: after nine to eleven, this lash up. I actually worked

252
00:16:27,800 --> 00:16:30,800
Speaker 11: with the Special Operations community, including Delta Force. This is

253
00:16:30,840 --> 00:16:34,040
Speaker 11: the unit that conducted this operation. We grew up together,

254
00:16:34,240 --> 00:16:37,080
Speaker 11: and this is kind of techniques and practices that have

255
00:16:37,120 --> 00:16:39,400
Speaker 11: been refined, and this is what you saw kind of

256
00:16:39,440 --> 00:16:43,520
Speaker 11: play out in Venezuela. The CIA reportedly had teams on

257
00:16:43,560 --> 00:16:46,120
Speaker 11: the ground that recruited a high level penetration of the

258
00:16:46,160 --> 00:16:48,760
Speaker 11: Maduro regime, and what they do is they kind of

259
00:16:48,880 --> 00:16:51,960
Speaker 11: established Maduro and his family's pattern of life, which then

260
00:16:52,000 --> 00:16:54,840
Speaker 11: allows for a special Forces team in this case Delta Force,

261
00:16:54,880 --> 00:16:58,080
Speaker 11: to come in and conduct this extraction operation. It really

262
00:16:58,120 --> 00:17:03,120
Speaker 11: is remarkable with certainly no killed in action, and at

263
00:17:03,160 --> 00:17:05,320
Speaker 11: the end of the day, this is something that I

264
00:17:05,359 --> 00:17:07,600
Speaker 11: think is going to be kind of written in intelligence

265
00:17:07,600 --> 00:17:10,919
Speaker 11: and special operations history. It's something that I think we

266
00:17:10,960 --> 00:17:14,159
Speaker 11: can focus on and think about. It's tactically brilliant, but

267
00:17:14,280 --> 00:17:16,320
Speaker 11: of course I think what comes next now and what

268
00:17:16,359 --> 00:17:18,199
Speaker 11: the discussion will then lead to is then kind of

269
00:17:18,200 --> 00:17:21,640
Speaker 11: this strategic dysfunction here, perhaps even in competence on not

270
00:17:21,680 --> 00:17:24,639
Speaker 11: having a day after plan. But really kudos to my

271
00:17:24,680 --> 00:17:28,000
Speaker 11: old organization, the CIA, and to the special operations world

272
00:17:28,080 --> 00:17:30,360
Speaker 11: for what was a really extraordinary operation.

273
00:17:31,680 --> 00:17:36,240
Speaker 1: Now you remember Blackhawk Down, What a disaster that was.

274
00:17:37,240 --> 00:17:40,679
Speaker 1: Remember the attempted rescue of the hostages held by Iran

275
00:17:40,760 --> 00:17:46,520
Speaker 1: by Jimmy Carter, What a disaster that was. What about

276
00:17:46,520 --> 00:17:51,159
Speaker 1: the pull out of Afghanistan? Didn't advise our allies he was

277
00:17:51,200 --> 00:17:55,720
Speaker 1: doing at Biden claim nobody advised him that the tall

278
00:17:55,720 --> 00:17:59,520
Speaker 1: obamaud come back. The Afghan government would melt away. General's

279
00:17:59,520 --> 00:18:02,200
Speaker 1: testified under oath, that's exactly what they told President Biden.

280
00:18:02,480 --> 00:18:04,560
Speaker 1: He ignored it, or didn't listen to it, or didn't

281
00:18:04,560 --> 00:18:06,760
Speaker 1: hear it, or forgot that he was told it. You

282
00:18:06,800 --> 00:18:11,560
Speaker 1: tell me eight nine billion dollars the military equipment left behind,

283
00:18:12,160 --> 00:18:14,439
Speaker 1: which very likely has been used to kill Americans in

284
00:18:14,440 --> 00:18:19,720
Speaker 1: that area. Hundreds of Americans left behind, thousands of Afghan

285
00:18:19,840 --> 00:18:25,679
Speaker 1: collaborated left behind, thirteen members military members at Abbegate killed.

286
00:18:28,480 --> 00:18:32,000
Speaker 1: And the way this was so incompetently done and fecklessly

287
00:18:32,040 --> 00:18:36,440
Speaker 1: done very likely incided Putin to invade Ukraine. He even

288
00:18:36,560 --> 00:18:43,320
Speaker 1: he has said so, very likely incited the Iranians to

289
00:18:44,400 --> 00:18:50,960
Speaker 1: assist the terrorists who pulled off that atrocity on October seven,

290
00:18:51,000 --> 00:18:59,159
Speaker 1: twenty twenty three. So this is risky. Suppose it had

291
00:18:59,200 --> 00:19:08,600
Speaker 1: blown up in a disaster, Iran's watching, Putin's watching, China's watching,

292
00:19:10,080 --> 00:19:20,200
Speaker 1: Hamas is watching. It was executed flawlessly. No Americans lives lost, apparently,

293
00:19:20,240 --> 00:19:24,240
Speaker 1: there were some injuries, but nothing serious, no assets lost.

294
00:19:25,840 --> 00:19:30,800
Speaker 1: Complicated mission one hundred and fifty aircraft used plus other assets.

295
00:19:31,840 --> 00:19:39,119
Speaker 1: Absolutely stunning, along the same lines as was the taking

296
00:19:39,119 --> 00:19:43,600
Speaker 1: out of three nuclear sites in Iran? Can you at

297
00:19:43,720 --> 00:19:48,159
Speaker 1: least applaud the execution of the mission, especially considering that

298
00:19:48,200 --> 00:19:52,280
Speaker 1: you wanted Moduro austed and accused Trump of not doing

299
00:19:52,320 --> 00:19:55,199
Speaker 1: anything to get rid of him as recently as a

300
00:19:55,240 --> 00:19:58,919
Speaker 1: year or so ago. Can you say hypocrisy? Triple eight

301
00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:09,959
Speaker 1: ninety seven one as ge, I'm Larry Blueberry Triple eight

302
00:20:10,040 --> 00:20:13,000
Speaker 1: nine seven one, Sage Triple eight nine seven one seven

303
00:20:13,040 --> 00:20:16,840
Speaker 1: two four to three, very elder say Sellem NewsChannel. One

304
00:20:16,880 --> 00:20:19,000
Speaker 1: of my liberal friends said that what Trump did was

305
00:20:19,040 --> 00:20:22,800
Speaker 1: a quote, violation of international law. I said, can you

306
00:20:22,840 --> 00:20:24,840
Speaker 1: give me the sites, give me the statute? What are

307
00:20:24,840 --> 00:20:29,320
Speaker 1: you talking about? International law? You mean the international criminal

308
00:20:29,320 --> 00:20:33,600
Speaker 1: Court that we don't even recognize as valid, The court

309
00:20:33,640 --> 00:20:36,480
Speaker 1: that is called BB not in Yahoo it war criminal.

310
00:20:39,480 --> 00:20:43,200
Speaker 1: The court that saur On mom Dami, the new mayor

311
00:20:43,240 --> 00:20:45,640
Speaker 1: of New York, apparently relying on when he says if

312
00:20:46,160 --> 00:20:48,760
Speaker 1: BB set foot in New York City, he'd have him arrested.

313
00:20:49,640 --> 00:20:59,680
Speaker 1: We don't acknowledge their jurisdiction. General Jack Keene number twenty four.

314
00:21:02,920 --> 00:21:07,120
Speaker 1: General that operation, this is my opinion, it was brilliantly executed.

315
00:21:07,640 --> 00:21:09,760
Speaker 11: No disagreement on that from you, I take it.

316
00:21:11,920 --> 00:21:16,320
Speaker 2: Oh, no, totally agree. Bring an operation absolutely flawless, to

317
00:21:16,320 --> 00:21:20,840
Speaker 2: be frank, which is highly unusual. So much led into

318
00:21:20,880 --> 00:21:25,080
Speaker 2: that achieving those results. One just the operational security of

319
00:21:25,119 --> 00:21:29,320
Speaker 2: the mission itself, thousands involved in it, and of course

320
00:21:29,359 --> 00:21:33,360
Speaker 2: administration leaders and their staffs involved as well, and no leak,

321
00:21:33,960 --> 00:21:39,040
Speaker 2: thank god for that. And the intelligence was clearly exquisite

322
00:21:39,680 --> 00:21:42,679
Speaker 2: to be able to know exactly where Madure was and

323
00:21:42,760 --> 00:21:45,080
Speaker 2: what they could do about it. He was inside a

324
00:21:45,119 --> 00:21:48,560
Speaker 2: military base, his compound, and yet we were able to

325
00:21:48,600 --> 00:21:51,120
Speaker 2: get in there with a relatively small force and get

326
00:21:51,200 --> 00:21:53,119
Speaker 2: him out in a matter of minutes.

327
00:21:55,440 --> 00:22:01,000
Speaker 1: During the press conference, Secretary of State Marco Rubio was

328
00:22:01,040 --> 00:22:04,879
Speaker 1: asked about notifying Congress and he said, well, this is

329
00:22:04,920 --> 00:22:09,080
Speaker 1: a different kind of mission required real time intelligence wouldn't

330
00:22:09,080 --> 00:22:14,080
Speaker 1: have been time. And Trump jumped in and said, we

331
00:22:14,119 --> 00:22:18,960
Speaker 1: can't trust Congress, not the leak they leak back to

332
00:22:19,040 --> 00:22:22,080
Speaker 1: Fetterman on better opportunities for Venezuelan's number twenty six.

333
00:22:23,840 --> 00:22:27,280
Speaker 7: I mean, everybody wanted to see about that video about

334
00:22:27,280 --> 00:22:30,800
Speaker 7: that boat, and now now we're not talking about that anymore.

335
00:22:30,920 --> 00:22:34,560
Speaker 7: It's like, well here, that's that happened. So you know,

336
00:22:34,600 --> 00:22:38,960
Speaker 7: for me, I think Democrats we all used to describe

337
00:22:39,040 --> 00:22:42,320
Speaker 7: him as a dictator or a tyrant, or a terrible person.

338
00:22:42,760 --> 00:22:45,880
Speaker 7: And it wasn't less than a year ago. President Biden

339
00:22:46,040 --> 00:22:49,760
Speaker 7: raised raised the bounty for twenty five million dollars less

340
00:22:49,760 --> 00:22:53,639
Speaker 7: than a year ago. And now here, here we're in

341
00:22:53,680 --> 00:22:56,600
Speaker 7: a better way to know. And that's why I think

342
00:22:56,640 --> 00:22:59,320
Speaker 7: as a Democrat, you know, just because it's a different

343
00:22:59,440 --> 00:23:04,680
Speaker 7: party here, it's like, I'm open to better opportunities for Venezuelan.

344
00:23:05,080 --> 00:23:08,120
Speaker 7: And now I turned to a lot of the Venezuelans

345
00:23:08,119 --> 00:23:10,679
Speaker 7: and our nation, and they're all celebrating these things. And

346
00:23:10,720 --> 00:23:16,879
Speaker 7: we all recognize that kind of warm collectivism socialism in Benezuela.

347
00:23:17,000 --> 00:23:19,399
Speaker 7: No one really liked to live under that, and they

348
00:23:19,440 --> 00:23:22,359
Speaker 7: had to flee that. And now here we have a

349
00:23:22,400 --> 00:23:26,359
Speaker 7: way forward. And now there's a trial, a public trial,

350
00:23:26,880 --> 00:23:29,920
Speaker 7: and now here, So that's the way it works.

351
00:23:31,119 --> 00:23:35,080
Speaker 1: I wonder what his fellow Democrats are saying about John

352
00:23:35,119 --> 00:23:36,399
Speaker 1: Fetterman number twenty seven.

353
00:23:36,920 --> 00:23:39,439
Speaker 7: I mean, look at the kinds of the kinds of

354
00:23:39,480 --> 00:23:42,919
Speaker 7: places that they understand, the good thing that happened here.

355
00:23:43,119 --> 00:23:45,919
Speaker 7: They're celebrating these kinds of a thing. And now we

356
00:23:46,000 --> 00:23:48,400
Speaker 7: want to remember the kinds of chaos and the suffering

357
00:23:48,600 --> 00:23:52,199
Speaker 7: that Medora brought to Venezuela. Why we all can't just

358
00:23:52,280 --> 00:23:55,479
Speaker 7: call that as a good development now and be open

359
00:23:55,600 --> 00:23:58,959
Speaker 7: to better kinds of outcomes for that nation. You know,

360
00:23:59,119 --> 00:24:04,240
Speaker 7: our name was forced to absorb over five hundred thousand Vesuanians.

361
00:24:04,359 --> 00:24:07,280
Speaker 7: So now that's the kinds of chaos, and it's I

362
00:24:07,280 --> 00:24:10,800
Speaker 7: think it was appropriate and surgical. This wasn't a war,

363
00:24:11,200 --> 00:24:14,080
Speaker 7: this wasn't boots on grounds, and in that kind of

364
00:24:14,119 --> 00:24:17,880
Speaker 7: a way, this was surgical and very efficient. And they

365
00:24:17,920 --> 00:24:21,480
Speaker 7: want to celebrate our military. And now they're also putting

366
00:24:21,560 --> 00:24:25,679
Speaker 7: him on a trial. They didn't assassinate him, they didn't

367
00:24:25,680 --> 00:24:29,600
Speaker 7: disappear him. He's actually on our TV right now and

368
00:24:29,600 --> 00:24:30,879
Speaker 7: they're going to give him a trail.

369
00:24:31,840 --> 00:24:34,280
Speaker 1: Who knew that John Fetterman would be the most common

370
00:24:34,280 --> 00:24:37,240
Speaker 1: centical Democrat on the heel number twenty eight.

371
00:24:37,560 --> 00:24:40,960
Speaker 7: For seeing It's like, yeah, I mean for me, I

372
00:24:41,000 --> 00:24:43,320
Speaker 7: think I don't know why we can't just acknowledge that

373
00:24:43,359 --> 00:24:44,240
Speaker 7: it's been a good thing.

374
00:24:44,320 --> 00:24:45,000
Speaker 2: What's happened?

375
00:24:45,359 --> 00:24:48,960
Speaker 7: I mean, I mean I've seen the speeches from whether

376
00:24:49,000 --> 00:24:53,240
Speaker 7: it's Leader Schumer or kinds of past tweets from President Biden.

377
00:24:53,600 --> 00:24:56,280
Speaker 7: Now we all wanted this man gone and now he

378
00:24:56,440 --> 00:24:59,719
Speaker 7: is gone. I think we should really appreciate exactly what

379
00:24:59,720 --> 00:25:02,400
Speaker 7: happen been here, and I think we did, just as

380
00:25:02,480 --> 00:25:06,080
Speaker 7: I've salute our military what they've done that was really

381
00:25:06,119 --> 00:25:10,000
Speaker 7: surgical and precise and very efficient. So why we can't

382
00:25:10,040 --> 00:25:13,080
Speaker 7: celebrate these kinds of things. And I'm open to the

383
00:25:13,119 --> 00:25:17,920
Speaker 7: good opportunities that a better future for Venezuela after this happened.

384
00:25:19,119 --> 00:25:22,320
Speaker 1: As I mentioned just one intense express support for what happened.

385
00:25:22,920 --> 00:25:25,800
Speaker 1: What do you think there would have reacted to had

386
00:25:26,040 --> 00:25:28,800
Speaker 1: o Kamala Harris been president and done the same thing,

387
00:25:29,640 --> 00:25:31,800
Speaker 1: or had Biden done the same thing, or Obama done

388
00:25:31,840 --> 00:25:33,680
Speaker 1: the same thing? You think only one in ten would

389
00:25:33,680 --> 00:25:38,240
Speaker 1: have approved this rhetorical question. Triple eight nine seven one

396
00:26:09,320 --> 00:26:13,400
Speaker 1: the eighty year old son of Ronald Reagan, has just died.

397
00:26:15,359 --> 00:26:19,840
Speaker 1: The Reagan Library Foundation issued a statement calling his death

398
00:26:19,880 --> 00:26:24,480
Speaker 1: a quote profound loss that his presence, warmth, and on

399
00:26:24,640 --> 00:26:28,000
Speaker 1: wavering commitment will be deeply missed at the Reagan Library

400
00:26:28,200 --> 00:26:33,720
Speaker 1: and far beyond its walls. Close quote. I've interviewed Michael

401
00:26:33,720 --> 00:26:37,119
Speaker 1: Reagan a number of times. He once even got his

402
00:26:37,119 --> 00:26:41,280
Speaker 1: father to send me something that his father autographed. I

403
00:26:41,359 --> 00:26:45,960
Speaker 1: was fortunate enough to be invited to the burial ceremony

404
00:26:46,600 --> 00:26:52,520
Speaker 1: for President Ronald Reagan and Seem Valley. I also was

405
00:26:52,560 --> 00:26:56,000
Speaker 1: honored to have had dinner with Nancy Reagan. Along with

406
00:26:56,080 --> 00:27:04,520
Speaker 1: Nina and Michael was a staunch conservative who believed in

407
00:27:04,600 --> 00:27:11,400
Speaker 1: his father's values, very different from ron Reagan Junior, who

408
00:27:11,400 --> 00:27:14,439
Speaker 1: became the very antithesis, at least politically, of what his

409
00:27:14,520 --> 00:27:15,400
Speaker 1: father represented.

410
00:27:17,840 --> 00:27:18,320
Speaker 12: Ri P.

411
00:27:19,400 --> 00:27:27,119
Speaker 1: Michael Reagan, Chris is in San Antonio. Chris, you're and

412
00:27:27,160 --> 00:27:28,600
Speaker 1: the Lario to show. Thank you so much for.

413
00:27:28,560 --> 00:27:33,800
Speaker 13: Calling Therenz though. Happy to know you're my friend, sir.

414
00:27:35,240 --> 00:27:37,359
Speaker 13: Thank you, yeah, you know. Rest in peace to the

415
00:27:37,359 --> 00:27:40,600
Speaker 13: Reagan family. God bless them for all that they've contributed

416
00:27:40,640 --> 00:27:44,480
Speaker 13: to this great republic. As I yes, sir, as I

417
00:27:44,560 --> 00:27:48,200
Speaker 13: hear the media punditry and the politicians and the like

418
00:27:48,880 --> 00:27:56,199
Speaker 13: take all these ridiculous comments about the beautiful Venezuela. What

419
00:27:56,240 --> 00:27:57,680
Speaker 13: would you call it?

420
00:27:57,800 --> 00:28:03,320
Speaker 1: The warm collectivism? No warm collective visness.

421
00:28:03,160 --> 00:28:06,520
Speaker 13: Warm collectivisions. That's right, that took place. I'm reminded of

422
00:28:06,520 --> 00:28:08,920
Speaker 13: two quotes, and one of them is from the great

423
00:28:08,920 --> 00:28:12,920
Speaker 13: Dennis Prager, where he said that the right fights evil

424
00:28:13,080 --> 00:28:17,080
Speaker 13: and the left fights those that fight evil. And the

425
00:28:17,119 --> 00:28:20,679
Speaker 13: other quote is from my favorite entertainer who says that

426
00:28:21,160 --> 00:28:24,199
Speaker 13: if this man being Trump walked on water, he'd be

427
00:28:24,240 --> 00:28:29,240
Speaker 13: a key to not being able to swim. These people

428
00:28:29,240 --> 00:28:29,920
Speaker 13: are too much.

429
00:28:30,080 --> 00:28:32,280
Speaker 1: They are Chris much. Thank you so much for that.

430
00:28:32,320 --> 00:28:34,199
Speaker 1: I appreciate it. Let me give you one of my

431
00:28:34,240 --> 00:28:36,560
Speaker 1: favorite lines. This is from a TV show, the show

432
00:28:36,800 --> 00:28:39,040
Speaker 1: the Keifer Sutherland started. Was it called twenty four to

433
00:28:39,120 --> 00:28:42,120
Speaker 1: forty eight? Mister m McConnell was a twenty four to

434
00:28:42,200 --> 00:28:46,520
Speaker 1: forty eight The Keefer Sutherland Show, twenty four Thank you

435
00:28:47,880 --> 00:28:52,280
Speaker 1: just let me hang there, okay? Took almost forty eight

436
00:28:52,320 --> 00:28:56,440
Speaker 1: hour for you to respond to that. There is a

437
00:28:56,440 --> 00:29:00,640
Speaker 1: a character played by William Devane. He played secondary of State,

438
00:29:00,640 --> 00:29:02,840
Speaker 1: I believe, and he had a son who was an

439
00:29:02,880 --> 00:29:08,160
Speaker 1: anti war activist and as Devane was about ready to

440
00:29:08,160 --> 00:29:10,680
Speaker 1: give a speech. His son was telling his father he's

441
00:29:10,680 --> 00:29:15,760
Speaker 1: going to go out and protest against nuclear proliferation and

442
00:29:15,840 --> 00:29:18,760
Speaker 1: talked about how horrible it is for us to have

443
00:29:18,800 --> 00:29:23,520
Speaker 1: all these weapons, and de Vane said this, Oh, spare

444
00:29:23,680 --> 00:29:31,600
Speaker 1: me your fifth grade. Michael Moore logic, America has enemies. Now.

445
00:29:31,600 --> 00:29:34,960
Speaker 1: When I support military action like this, as I did

446
00:29:35,040 --> 00:29:39,160
Speaker 1: the war in Iraq and still do, I was called

447
00:29:39,680 --> 00:29:44,200
Speaker 1: an apostate, as a small il libertarian, as if there's

448
00:29:44,240 --> 00:29:47,720
Speaker 1: a libertarian foreign policy. I don't believe that there is.

449
00:29:49,440 --> 00:29:54,800
Speaker 1: But the world is a very ugly dangerous place. There

450
00:29:54,800 --> 00:29:59,760
Speaker 1: are evil actors, and the sort of naive notion that

451
00:29:59,800 --> 00:30:03,480
Speaker 1: if just leave people alone, they'll leave you alone is

452
00:30:03,640 --> 00:30:07,840
Speaker 1: just not born out in the real world. There are aggressors,

453
00:30:09,120 --> 00:30:12,959
Speaker 1: There are evil people with an evil ideology. Look at

454
00:30:13,040 --> 00:30:16,600
Speaker 1: radical Islam. The agenda of radical Islam is not just

455
00:30:16,640 --> 00:30:21,680
Speaker 1: to prevent a Jewish state of Israel, but to exterminate

456
00:30:22,480 --> 00:30:29,960
Speaker 1: all non believers, all infidels. The Quran offers non believers

457
00:30:30,000 --> 00:30:34,520
Speaker 1: three choices. You can convert. You can live as a

458
00:30:34,560 --> 00:30:38,280
Speaker 1: second class citizenship citizen and pay a fine, or you

459
00:30:38,320 --> 00:30:41,840
Speaker 1: can be killed. Pick one. Now, the good news is

460
00:30:41,880 --> 00:30:46,680
Speaker 1: that most of the world's over one point five billion

461
00:30:46,720 --> 00:30:50,080
Speaker 1: Muslims do not operate like that, do not practice that.

462
00:30:51,360 --> 00:30:54,280
Speaker 1: But if just a fraction does, we're talking about hundreds

463
00:30:54,960 --> 00:30:59,880
Speaker 1: of millions of people. I don't know what you do

464
00:31:01,040 --> 00:31:07,240
Speaker 1: about Hummas declaring their desire to eradicate all Jews everywhere,

465
00:31:10,680 --> 00:31:13,920
Speaker 1: referring to us as the big Satan and Israel as

466
00:31:13,920 --> 00:31:17,400
Speaker 1: a little Satan. What do you do about that? What

467
00:31:17,440 --> 00:31:20,360
Speaker 1: do you do about a regime like Iran that was

468
00:31:20,400 --> 00:31:26,880
Speaker 1: assembling nuclear capability until Trump set it back? Nothing, Cross

469
00:31:26,880 --> 00:31:30,320
Speaker 1: your fingers and hope for the best, or do something

470
00:31:30,360 --> 00:31:37,400
Speaker 1: about it. Obama said a nuclear armed Iran was unacceptable.

471
00:31:38,720 --> 00:31:44,160
Speaker 1: George W. Bush said it, Hillary Clinton said it. Trump

472
00:31:44,200 --> 00:31:48,480
Speaker 1: did something about it. But Trump's an evil guy, a

473
00:31:48,520 --> 00:31:51,920
Speaker 1: bad guy. As I was telling my liberal friend the

474
00:31:51,920 --> 00:31:54,840
Speaker 1: other day, I say, here, you are, in the comfort

475
00:31:54,880 --> 00:32:02,560
Speaker 1: of your home up in Canada, away calling Trump everything

476
00:32:02,560 --> 00:32:06,760
Speaker 1: but a child of God, while he just took action

477
00:32:07,880 --> 00:32:14,440
Speaker 1: against Iran that made your life safer. Whether you appreciate

478
00:32:14,480 --> 00:32:21,360
Speaker 1: it or not, whether you know it or not, I

479
00:32:21,480 --> 00:32:25,200
Speaker 1: understand how and why Trump is a difficult man to like,

480
00:32:27,120 --> 00:32:34,880
Speaker 1: especially for people who believe that politicians should be paragons

481
00:32:34,920 --> 00:32:42,040
Speaker 1: of courtesy. I don't. I'm not voting for a fishing buddy.

482
00:32:43,200 --> 00:32:46,080
Speaker 1: I'm not voting for pastor in chief. I'm voting for

483
00:32:46,120 --> 00:32:53,120
Speaker 1: somebody who will grow the economy, secure our borders, and

484
00:32:53,160 --> 00:32:57,480
Speaker 1: give us a strong national security defense, and recognize realistically

485
00:32:57,480 --> 00:32:59,560
Speaker 1: who our enemies are and do something about them before

486
00:32:59,600 --> 00:33:03,960
Speaker 1: they harm. That's what I want this business about. Who

487
00:33:04,000 --> 00:33:06,040
Speaker 1: would you rather have a beer with? First of all,

488
00:33:06,040 --> 00:33:10,760
Speaker 1: I don't drink beer. Secondly, I couldn't care less. What

489
00:33:10,840 --> 00:33:15,640
Speaker 1: I care about is are you reducing the size of government,

490
00:33:17,520 --> 00:33:21,480
Speaker 1: allowing more money in the pockets of people, reducing regulations,

491
00:33:21,480 --> 00:33:25,840
Speaker 1: securing the borders, and governing as a commander in chief

492
00:33:25,840 --> 00:33:28,480
Speaker 1: of believes in peace through strength rather than the other

493
00:33:28,480 --> 00:33:32,680
Speaker 1: way around. Now, Relief Factor loves hearing from pain free customers.

494
00:33:33,360 --> 00:33:36,480
Speaker 1: Bill writes, I've been crawling under sinks, working long hours

495
00:33:36,520 --> 00:33:39,520
Speaker 1: for decades. My back and knees took punishment. I thought

496
00:33:39,600 --> 00:33:42,120
Speaker 1: pain was just part of the trade, but Relief Factor

497
00:33:42,160 --> 00:33:45,360
Speaker 1: surprised me. Within weeks, I was working without wincing. I

498
00:33:45,360 --> 00:33:46,840
Speaker 1: could get down on the floor and get back up

499
00:33:46,880 --> 00:33:50,360
Speaker 1: again without thinking twice. Bill knows hard work, knows pipes,

500
00:33:50,400 --> 00:33:52,800
Speaker 1: tools and long days on the job. But he didn't

501
00:33:52,800 --> 00:33:55,000
Speaker 1: know is how good life feels when the pain stops.

502
00:33:55,200 --> 00:33:59,480
Speaker 1: Tagging along. Relief Factor didn't change Bill's trade, it changed

503
00:33:59,520 --> 00:34:02,200
Speaker 1: his tomorrow. I've told you about my brother Kirk, who

504
00:34:02,200 --> 00:34:04,520
Speaker 1: followed my advice and then he was able to go

505
00:34:04,600 --> 00:34:05,960
Speaker 1: up and down the stairs in the morning without the

506
00:34:06,000 --> 00:34:09,080

525
00:35:19,920 --> 00:35:25,160
Speaker 1: Now coming up, Senator John Kennedy outlined the scope of

526
00:35:25,160 --> 00:35:27,320
Speaker 1: the Minnesota fraud. Although he put it at one billion,

527
00:35:27,360 --> 00:35:30,760
Speaker 1: it is now estimated to be eight or nine billion. Also,

528
00:35:30,800 --> 00:35:33,680
Speaker 1: it is the one year anniversary of the LA wildfires.

529
00:35:34,239 --> 00:35:37,520
Speaker 1: Lawsuit says California's environmental policy played a major role in

530
00:35:37,520 --> 00:35:42,560
Speaker 1: the Palisades fire, a fire lawsuit claims were completely totally avoidable.

531
00:35:42,560 --> 00:35:46,600
Speaker 1: We're you talking about that billionaire candidate for government of California,

532
00:35:46,680 --> 00:35:50,160
Speaker 1: says Bernie is right. We need Medicare for all, which

533
00:35:50,200 --> 00:35:55,520
Speaker 1: is code for a single payer. And a Minnesota Hilton

534
00:35:55,560 --> 00:36:00,279
Speaker 1: Hotel canceled reservations for ice agents, two thousand of whom

535
00:36:00,280 --> 00:36:05,160
Speaker 1: have been deployed to Minnesota. All of this and more

Speaker 1: Thank you.

545
00:36:26,680 --> 00:36:29,480
Speaker 16: So I told the I told your screen caller. I'm

546
00:36:29,480 --> 00:36:32,600
Speaker 16: a retired marine. So I've been watching a lot of

547
00:36:33,040 --> 00:36:37,799
Speaker 16: YouTube and any other type of videos where people that

548
00:36:37,920 --> 00:36:42,120
Speaker 16: either left were there in Venezuela have said that there

549
00:36:42,120 --> 00:36:46,800
Speaker 16: are Russian troops, Chinese troops, and I don't know about Iran,

550
00:36:46,840 --> 00:36:52,239
Speaker 16: but there's somebody there in speaking for Iran. I guess

551
00:36:52,280 --> 00:36:52,880
Speaker 16: with the oil.

552
00:36:53,120 --> 00:36:55,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, plus plus Cuban. My question is plus plus plus

553
00:36:55,719 --> 00:36:56,320
Speaker 1: Cuban troops.

554
00:36:56,560 --> 00:37:00,560
Speaker 16: Yeah, okay, So my question is one, is that that's true?

555
00:37:00,600 --> 00:37:04,399
Speaker 16: And then two, what do you think? Have you heard

556
00:37:04,440 --> 00:37:08,600
Speaker 16: anything about how they're going to handle this? I mean,

557
00:37:08,719 --> 00:37:10,600
Speaker 16: you have to almost put boots on the ground.

558
00:37:10,680 --> 00:37:15,200
Speaker 1: But yeah, well, I've not heard anything about Chinese troops.

559
00:37:16,120 --> 00:37:19,200
Speaker 1: But I did hear that the people who were defending

560
00:37:19,560 --> 00:37:23,960
Speaker 1: Maduro his security detail, they were one hundred percent Cubans,

561
00:37:24,680 --> 00:37:28,440
Speaker 1: and that Cuba has essentially become has taken over Venezuela,

562
00:37:28,440 --> 00:37:32,640
Speaker 1: and Venezuela has become a client state of Cuba. There's

563
00:37:32,640 --> 00:37:35,640
Speaker 1: a tremendous Iranian influence. Whether Iranian troops are there, I

564
00:37:35,680 --> 00:37:38,919
Speaker 1: don't know, but I suspect if there are, a whole

565
00:37:38,920 --> 00:37:41,560
Speaker 1: lot of people are now going back home because they

566
00:37:41,560 --> 00:37:44,960
Speaker 1: are scared blankless of what Donald Trump is going to

567
00:37:45,000 --> 00:37:47,560
Speaker 1: do next, and he's not ruled out further military action.

568
00:37:47,600 --> 00:37:59,680
Speaker 1: By the way, Triple eight nine seventy one sage I'm lariode,

569
00:38:00,200 --> 00:38:09,719
Speaker 1: so let's get her teed up with that. Subde go.

570
00:38:10,600 --> 00:38:14,439
Speaker 1: Triple eight nine seven one seven two four to three,

571
00:38:14,520 --> 00:38:18,000
Speaker 1: Triple eight ninety seven one s A g E. Larry Elders,

572
00:38:18,080 --> 00:38:21,640
Speaker 1: Salem News Channel. We're gonna talk about Senator Kennedy from

573
00:38:21,640 --> 00:38:26,800
Speaker 1: Louisiana blasting away at the Minnesota fraud, outlining exactly what happened.

574
00:38:28,440 --> 00:38:32,880
Speaker 1: Lawsuit says California's environmental policies played a huge role in

575
00:38:32,960 --> 00:38:38,440
Speaker 1: the Palisades fire, the fire that the lawsuit claims was avoidable,

576
00:38:39,080 --> 00:38:45,520
Speaker 1: all these deaths, seventeen thousand structures burned. Billionaire candidate for

577
00:38:45,600 --> 00:38:50,160
Speaker 1: governor of California says Bernie is right. We need Medicare

578
00:38:50,239 --> 00:38:55,320
Speaker 1: for all, also known as single payer, and a Minnesota

579
00:38:56,320 --> 00:39:01,560
Speaker 1: Hilton Hotel canceled reservations for ice A, all of this

580
00:39:01,719 --> 00:39:07,440
Speaker 1: and more triple eight nine seventy one sage. Now, before

581
00:39:07,480 --> 00:39:10,440
Speaker 1: we talk about what Senator Kennedy said about the Minnesota fraud,

582
00:39:11,200 --> 00:39:13,520
Speaker 1: I want to cardruple down on something I've been saying,

583
00:39:15,440 --> 00:39:17,120
Speaker 1: not just in the last few days, but over the

584
00:39:17,200 --> 00:39:22,600
Speaker 1: last few decades. We're talking about all this fraud, this

585
00:39:22,719 --> 00:39:30,360
Speaker 1: childcare stuff, this healthcare for indigen somalis, and this massive,

586
00:39:30,440 --> 00:39:37,560
Speaker 1: massive welfare state we have in America. The idea that

587
00:39:37,640 --> 00:39:41,480
Speaker 1: this is the federal government's job is a relatively new

588
00:39:41,520 --> 00:39:45,439
Speaker 1: phenomenon when you look at the history of this country.

589
00:39:45,640 --> 00:39:51,439
Speaker 1: Even as recently as twenty thirteen, according to the left

590
00:39:51,440 --> 00:39:56,400
Speaker 1: wing think tank the Brookings Institution, just forty two percent

591
00:39:56,440 --> 00:40:00,480
Speaker 1: of Americans believed it was quote their responsibility of the

592
00:40:00,480 --> 00:40:03,359
Speaker 1: federal government to make sure all Americans have health care

593
00:40:03,400 --> 00:40:09,160
Speaker 1: coverage close quote. By the end of twenty twenty four,

594
00:40:09,400 --> 00:40:13,120
Speaker 1: roughly ten years later, the percentage who believe that it

595
00:40:13,200 --> 00:40:16,040
Speaker 1: is quote the responsibility of the federal government to make

596
00:40:16,080 --> 00:40:19,400
Speaker 1: sure all Americans have health care coverage had arisen to

597
00:40:19,520 --> 00:40:34,560
Speaker 1: sixty two percent. Well over ninety percent Democrats feel that way.

598
00:40:34,680 --> 00:40:39,239
Speaker 1: So think about that in twenty thirteen, forty two percent

599
00:40:39,280 --> 00:40:41,080
Speaker 1: of Americans thought it was a federal government's job to

600
00:40:41,080 --> 00:40:44,920
Speaker 1: make sure that everybody had health care coverage. Roughly eleven

601
00:40:45,000 --> 00:40:49,000
Speaker 1: years later, that number rises to sixty two percent. Now,

602
00:40:49,120 --> 00:40:54,120
Speaker 1: I have not seen any polls about how people felt

603
00:40:54,520 --> 00:40:59,560
Speaker 1: eighteen hundreds, eighteen ten, eighteen twenty, eighteen thirty about a

604
00:40:59,560 --> 00:41:03,759
Speaker 1: similar question for other things that the needy might need,

605
00:41:03,800 --> 00:41:09,040
Speaker 1: whether it's health care, whether it's housing, whether it's shelter,

606
00:41:10,400 --> 00:41:14,800
Speaker 1: whether it's food. But my suspicion is that the percentage

607
00:41:14,800 --> 00:41:17,200
Speaker 1: of Americans who believe that it's the federal government's job

608
00:41:17,239 --> 00:41:19,000
Speaker 1: to do that probably was in that would have been

609
00:41:19,000 --> 00:41:25,480
Speaker 1: in the single digits. Why do I say that James

610
00:41:25,480 --> 00:41:32,560
Speaker 1: Madison is known as the father of the Constitution. He

611
00:41:32,640 --> 00:41:37,759
Speaker 1: opposed a bill in seventeen ninety two that would appropriate

612
00:41:37,800 --> 00:41:41,840
Speaker 1: fifteen thousand dollars for French refugees. Congress had passed that.

613
00:41:44,160 --> 00:41:47,120
Speaker 1: Madison said this, and I'm quoting him. I was there.

614
00:41:48,239 --> 00:41:51,480
Speaker 1: I cannot undertake to lay my finger on that article

615
00:41:51,640 --> 00:41:57,239
Speaker 1: of the Constitution which granted a right of Congress of expending,

616
00:41:57,840 --> 00:42:03,680
Speaker 1: on objects of benevolence, the money of their constituents with

617
00:42:03,760 --> 00:42:08,840
Speaker 1: respect to the words general welfare. I have always regarded

618
00:42:08,880 --> 00:42:13,759
Speaker 1: them as qualified by the detail of powers enumerated in

619
00:42:13,800 --> 00:42:18,239
Speaker 1: the Constitution. To take them in a literal and unlimited

620
00:42:18,280 --> 00:42:23,040
Speaker 1: sense would be a metamorphosis of the Constitution into a

621
00:42:23,160 --> 00:42:26,399
Speaker 1: character which, there is a host of proofs, was not

622
00:42:26,680 --> 00:42:36,560
Speaker 1: contemplated by its creators. Close quote can't do it. The

623
00:42:36,560 --> 00:42:40,360
Speaker 1: Constitution sets forth the limited duties obligation to the federal government,

624
00:42:40,840 --> 00:42:45,520
Speaker 1: among them is not charity, said Madison, again, also known

625
00:42:45,560 --> 00:42:50,320
Speaker 1: as the father of the Constitution. Eighteen fifty four, President

626
00:42:50,800 --> 00:42:55,640
Speaker 1: Peers vetoed a bill to help the mentally ill. Can

627
00:42:55,680 --> 00:42:58,080
Speaker 1: you imagine some president vetoing a bill to help mentally

628
00:42:58,080 --> 00:43:02,040
Speaker 1: ill today? Here's what he said, quote, I cannot find

629
00:43:02,080 --> 00:43:07,759
Speaker 1: any authority in the Constitution for public charity. To prove

630
00:43:07,840 --> 00:43:11,400
Speaker 1: such spending would be contrary to the letter and the

631
00:43:11,440 --> 00:43:15,160
Speaker 1: spirit of the Constitution, and subversive to the whole theory

632
00:43:15,239 --> 00:43:18,160
Speaker 1: upon which the Union of these States is founded. Close

633
00:43:18,239 --> 00:43:24,040
Speaker 1: quote No, we can't do it, completely inconsistent with limited government.

634
00:43:26,120 --> 00:43:30,560
Speaker 1: Congress cannot take money out of the pockets of taxpayers

635
00:43:30,600 --> 00:43:33,080
Speaker 1: for a charitable reason that they deem to be appropriate.

636
00:43:35,239 --> 00:43:39,480
Speaker 1: Eighteen eighty seven, President Cleveland the only other president of

637
00:43:39,520 --> 00:43:43,839
Speaker 1: the then President Trump to have two terms that were

638
00:43:43,840 --> 00:43:49,160
Speaker 1: non consecutive. He vetoed a bill to send money to

639
00:43:49,320 --> 00:43:54,160
Speaker 1: drought stricken counties in Texas. Can you imagine some presidents saying,

640
00:43:54,160 --> 00:43:56,760
Speaker 1: I'm not going to send money to a drought stricken area.

641
00:43:58,400 --> 00:44:02,560
Speaker 1: Cleveland said this, and unquoting him, I feel obliged to

642
00:44:02,560 --> 00:44:06,280
Speaker 1: withhold my approval of the plan to indulge in benevolent

643
00:44:06,360 --> 00:44:10,360
Speaker 1: and charitable sentiment through the appropriation of public funds. I

644
00:44:10,480 --> 00:44:15,520
Speaker 1: find no warrant for an appropriation in the Constitution end

645
00:44:15,560 --> 00:44:22,040
Speaker 1: of quote. And earlier, Jane Monroe, the president who did

646
00:44:22,040 --> 00:44:26,919
Speaker 1: the Monroe Document doctrine. Fifth President Congress passed some money

647
00:44:26,960 --> 00:44:31,239
Speaker 1: to expand the Cumberland Road that would go through his

648
00:44:31,320 --> 00:44:33,359
Speaker 1: home state of Virginia and would benefit the home state

649
00:44:33,400 --> 00:44:37,600
Speaker 1: of Virginia. He cast one veto in his presidency and

650
00:44:37,600 --> 00:44:40,919
Speaker 1: that was it. He said, yeah, I would benefit my state,

651
00:44:40,920 --> 00:44:44,960
Speaker 1: would benefit me. But where do I find the authority

652
00:44:44,960 --> 00:44:47,239
Speaker 1: to take money out of the pockets of the Americans

653
00:44:48,000 --> 00:44:52,680
Speaker 1: for the benefit of other Americans in other states? Vetoed.

654
00:44:53,960 --> 00:44:57,440
Speaker 1: My point is the Founding Fathers never ever ever envisioned

655
00:44:58,400 --> 00:45:01,840
Speaker 1: a government where we have FEMA, where we have Medicaid,

656
00:45:02,480 --> 00:45:06,440
Speaker 1: where we have Medicare, where we have Social Security, we

657
00:45:06,480 --> 00:45:08,840
Speaker 1: have all this stuff that we do something like eighty

658
00:45:08,880 --> 00:45:11,960
Speaker 1: sum odd anti poverty programs at the federal level, and

659
00:45:12,000 --> 00:45:14,080
Speaker 1: that doesn't include the ones at the state and local level.

660
00:45:18,160 --> 00:45:21,240
Speaker 1: I mentioned the summer that I work for the United

661
00:45:21,280 --> 00:45:26,400
Speaker 1: Way three months full time, the United Way of Cleveland.

662
00:45:27,120 --> 00:45:29,319
Speaker 1: That was what it's called a loaned executive, meaning that

663
00:45:29,520 --> 00:45:31,719
Speaker 1: they didn't pay me anything. My company, my law firm,

664
00:45:31,760 --> 00:45:37,440
Speaker 1: paid it paid my salary. And my job was to

665
00:45:37,480 --> 00:45:41,880
Speaker 1: meet with CEOs, tell them about the benefits of the

666
00:45:41,960 --> 00:45:48,160
Speaker 1: United Way and organize a presentation for their employees, which

667
00:45:48,200 --> 00:45:49,640
Speaker 1: I did. And my job was to try and raise

668
00:45:49,640 --> 00:45:52,840
Speaker 1: as much money as possible. And the United Way of

669
00:45:52,880 --> 00:45:56,839
Speaker 1: Cleveland was an umbrella organization, a nonprofit. They gave other

670
00:45:56,880 --> 00:46:01,200
Speaker 1: monies to other nonprofits much smaller, but there were conditions.

671
00:46:01,920 --> 00:46:07,160
Speaker 1: There were greed upon goals and standards to make sure

672
00:46:07,200 --> 00:46:10,200
Speaker 1: that the money was being spent. There were measurable achievements,

673
00:46:10,239 --> 00:46:12,279
Speaker 1: so if the money was spent, if you didn't have

674
00:46:12,320 --> 00:46:17,600
Speaker 1: any positive achievement, positive benefit, they got cut off. And

675
00:46:17,640 --> 00:46:22,600
Speaker 1: these were programs for after school programs, for athletic programs,

676
00:46:23,280 --> 00:46:29,120
Speaker 1: various other charities. They had to apply rigorous screening process.

677
00:46:29,560 --> 00:46:33,160
Speaker 1: Money was monitored and if the nonprofit did not spend

678
00:46:33,160 --> 00:46:37,680
Speaker 1: the money wisely and effectively, they got cut off. That

679
00:46:37,719 --> 00:46:42,399
Speaker 1: does not happen with the federal government. We've talked about

680
00:46:42,400 --> 00:46:44,920
Speaker 1: the book called Democracy in America written by a Frenchman

681
00:46:45,040 --> 00:46:50,719
Speaker 1: named Alexis de Tokville. He came to the country ostensibly

682
00:46:50,760 --> 00:46:54,080
Speaker 1: to study the prison system in America, but he w

683
00:46:54,200 --> 00:46:55,719
Speaker 1: wasn't around the country and he was just blown away

684
00:46:55,760 --> 00:47:00,400
Speaker 1: by what he saw were called mutual aid societies. And

685
00:47:00,480 --> 00:47:03,680
Speaker 1: these were nonprofit set up in the community for the

686
00:47:03,719 --> 00:47:07,839
Speaker 1: benefit of the needy in that given community. And here's

687
00:47:07,880 --> 00:47:11,239
Speaker 1: what he wrote in Democracy in America. Quote Americans of

688
00:47:11,280 --> 00:47:19,080
Speaker 1: all ages, all conditions, all minds, constantly unite. Americans use

689
00:47:19,120 --> 00:47:24,720
Speaker 1: associations to fund seminaries, to build INDs, to raise churches,

690
00:47:24,760 --> 00:47:32,280
Speaker 1: to distribute books, to send missionaries. They create hospitals, prisons, schools,

691
00:47:35,960 --> 00:47:40,719
Speaker 1: they associate end of quote. And then there's a question

692
00:47:40,760 --> 00:47:46,799
Speaker 1: about whether or not no questions asked, welfare benefits the

693
00:47:46,880 --> 00:47:52,239
Speaker 1: intended or does it create dependencies that brings us to

694
00:47:52,400 --> 00:47:55,440
Speaker 1: the amount of money that we're spending for somalis in Minnesota.

695
00:47:57,320 --> 00:48:00,120
Speaker 1: There was a study done by the Center for Immigration Studies.

696
00:48:02,960 --> 00:48:09,120
Speaker 1: Among the adult age Somalis working age who lived in

697
00:48:09,160 --> 00:48:13,400
Speaker 1: the country more than ten years, half couldn't speak English

698
00:48:13,600 --> 00:48:18,520
Speaker 1: very well. What is that? Is that helping them or

699
00:48:18,560 --> 00:48:22,440
Speaker 1: is that making them more dependent? Is that sapping their

700
00:48:22,440 --> 00:48:25,839
Speaker 1: initiative their work ethic? We're going to talk about what

701
00:48:25,880 --> 00:48:29,160
Speaker 1: Senator Kennedy said coming up Triple eight nine seven one

702
00:48:29,200 --> 00:48:31,239
Speaker 1: s A G E. I M. Larry Elder, do not

703
00:48:31,760 --> 00:48:35,200
Speaker 1: leave town?

704
00:48:35,840 --> 00:48:36,480
Speaker 17: What more?

705
00:48:39,960 --> 00:48:42,600
Speaker 1: Triple eight nine seven one s A G E. Triple

706
00:48:42,640 --> 00:48:45,000
Speaker 1: eight nine seven one seven two four to three Larry Elder,

707
00:48:45,040 --> 00:48:53,680
Speaker 1: Salem NewsChannel. Another point about private charity. When I work

708
00:48:53,760 --> 00:49:00,239
Speaker 1: for United Way and I had my own instrum duction

709
00:49:00,400 --> 00:49:03,399
Speaker 1: on learning about the organization so I could talk about

710
00:49:03,400 --> 00:49:08,160
Speaker 1: it intelligently, one of the things that was emphasized over

711
00:49:08,280 --> 00:49:12,480
Speaker 1: and over again is that donors were far more likely

712
00:49:12,560 --> 00:49:16,600
Speaker 1: to donate if they thought the money was being spent efficiently, effectively,

713
00:49:18,440 --> 00:49:21,719
Speaker 1: and if you thought the money was being misspent, far

714
00:49:21,880 --> 00:49:39,560
Speaker 1: less likely to donate, which pressured these organizations into producing results. Also,

715
00:49:40,719 --> 00:49:44,600
Speaker 1: when you have to go to a church, synagogue, private

716
00:49:44,680 --> 00:49:48,799
Speaker 1: charity to ask for help, there's a sense of gratitude,

717
00:49:49,320 --> 00:49:52,799
Speaker 1: a sense of appreciation when the government hands you would check,

718
00:49:52,840 --> 00:50:02,319
Speaker 1: no questions asked. Where's the gratitude, where's the appreciation? All

719
00:50:02,400 --> 00:50:06,920
Speaker 1: this fraud going on in Minnesota it is now estimated

720
00:50:06,920 --> 00:50:09,440
Speaker 1: to be at eight or nine billion dollars, probably higher

721
00:50:09,440 --> 00:50:12,800
Speaker 1: than that. And Governor Tim Walls, who was running for

722
00:50:12,840 --> 00:50:14,839
Speaker 1: a third term, has now said he's no longer going

723
00:50:14,880 --> 00:50:20,799
Speaker 1: to run. He's blaming Trump. We'll talk about that later on.

724
00:50:21,800 --> 00:50:24,240
Speaker 1: Here is Senator Kennedy number twelve.

725
00:50:24,800 --> 00:50:29,960
Speaker 9: Mister President. As you well know, the American people were

726
00:50:30,000 --> 00:50:39,920
Speaker 9: the most generous people in the entire world. In our country,

727
00:50:40,640 --> 00:50:49,759
Speaker 9: when you are hungry, we feed you. When you are homeless,

728
00:50:49,840 --> 00:50:54,840
Speaker 9: we house you. When you're too poor to be sick,

729
00:50:56,120 --> 00:51:03,920
Speaker 9: we'll pay for your doctor. We spend trillions of dollars

730
00:51:03,920 --> 00:51:09,000
Speaker 9: a year helping our friends and neighbors who are less

731
00:51:09,000 --> 00:51:15,120
Speaker 9: fortunate than will and that's rare in this world. I've

732
00:51:15,120 --> 00:51:19,800
Speaker 9: been all over our wonderful world. You have too, mister President.

733
00:51:19,880 --> 00:51:22,839
Speaker 9: And in many countries, if you get down on your luck,

734
00:51:25,239 --> 00:51:29,400
Speaker 9: they'll let you die in a ditch. But not in America.

735
00:51:30,080 --> 00:51:34,040
Speaker 9: Not in America. We take care of our fellow citizens.

736
00:51:35,239 --> 00:51:41,320
Speaker 9: But it's expensive. We spend trillions of dollars a year

737
00:51:43,160 --> 00:51:48,640
Speaker 9: to do this, and that money that we spend didn't

738
00:51:48,680 --> 00:51:53,680
Speaker 9: just fall from heaven. We thank Heaven for it, but

739
00:51:53,800 --> 00:52:02,399
Speaker 9: it came out of taxpayers pockets, and we shouldn't lose

740
00:52:02,440 --> 00:52:08,959
Speaker 9: sight of that fact. Mister pressed it now, That's why

741
00:52:09,000 --> 00:52:16,520
Speaker 9: I get so irritated, irritating the wrong word angry. When

742
00:52:16,560 --> 00:52:21,160
Speaker 9: I find out that people take advantage of the American

743
00:52:21,239 --> 00:52:28,640
Speaker 9: people's generosity. It makes me. It makes me want to

744
00:52:28,719 --> 00:52:33,239
Speaker 9: knee someone in the groin. It just makes me furious,

745
00:52:34,040 --> 00:52:37,799
Speaker 9: and I think the American taxpayers feel the same way.

746
00:52:37,840 --> 00:52:40,000
Speaker 9: What I'm about to tell you, mister President, let me

747
00:52:40,040 --> 00:52:50,560
Speaker 9: apologize in advance, is deeply disgusting. It's deeply disgusting. I mean,

748
00:52:50,640 --> 00:52:57,720
Speaker 9: it is clown world on steroids. And when I first

749
00:52:57,800 --> 00:53:02,680
Speaker 9: read about this, mister President, I read it a second

750
00:53:02,719 --> 00:53:10,279
Speaker 9: time because I was I experienced slack jawed astonishment. And

751
00:53:10,320 --> 00:53:13,120
Speaker 9: when I read it the second time and I realized

752
00:53:13,120 --> 00:53:15,720
Speaker 9: that it was true, I just wanted to run away,

753
00:53:15,800 --> 00:53:22,440
Speaker 9: screaming what am I talking about, mister President. We have discovered,

754
00:53:23,719 --> 00:53:29,400
Speaker 9: the federal federal prosecutors have discovered that for the last

755
00:53:29,520 --> 00:53:38,920
Speaker 9: five years, there has been massive welfare fraud in the

756
00:53:38,920 --> 00:53:49,520
Speaker 9: great state of Minnesota. Massive. Over a billion dollars of

757
00:53:49,560 --> 00:53:56,200
Speaker 9: American taxpayer money has been stolen, just stolen. They can

758
00:53:56,239 --> 00:53:59,320
Speaker 9: call it fraud, but a better term would be stealing.

759
00:54:01,120 --> 00:54:06,759
Speaker 9: And this fraud has been centered in the Somali community

760
00:54:07,560 --> 00:54:13,960
Speaker 9: in Minnesota. Now, I'm not here to criticize the Somali community.

761
00:54:14,840 --> 00:54:21,960
Speaker 9: I'm here simply to describe what happened. The Somali community

762
00:54:22,080 --> 00:54:32,600
Speaker 9: in Minneapolis is about eighty thousand people. They're centered around Minneapolis.

763
00:54:33,280 --> 00:54:36,600
Speaker 9: And let me say it again, I'm not here to

764
00:54:36,640 --> 00:54:43,560
Speaker 9: detegrate the Somali people or people of Somali ancestry just

765
00:54:43,640 --> 00:54:47,840
Speaker 9: because of the actions of a few. But it is

766
00:54:47,880 --> 00:54:53,600
Speaker 9: a fact that this one billion dollars in welfare fraud

767
00:54:53,719 --> 00:55:02,040
Speaker 9: occurred almost exclusively in the Somali community in Minnesota and

768
00:55:02,680 --> 00:55:08,160
Speaker 9: was orchestrated by people with Somali ancestry. That's a fact.

769
00:55:10,800 --> 00:55:15,640
Speaker 9: Facts aren't racist, facts of facts. So far, fifty nine

770
00:55:15,680 --> 00:55:20,480
Speaker 9: people have been had been convicted, eighty six had been charged,

771
00:55:21,600 --> 00:55:27,000
Speaker 9: and seventy eight of them are of Somali ancestry. That's

772
00:55:27,040 --> 00:55:38,160
Speaker 9: just a fact. Now, what these criminals did was it

773
00:55:38,200 --> 00:55:43,840
Speaker 9: was they had three very elaborate schemes. The first scheme

774
00:55:44,440 --> 00:55:52,680
Speaker 9: was centered on supposedly feeding hungry children in the Somali community.

775
00:55:53,600 --> 00:56:02,080
Speaker 9: A group a nonprofit run by some people with some ancestry.

776
00:56:03,040 --> 00:56:08,719
Speaker 9: The name of the nonprofit uh was was called Feed

777
00:56:10,080 --> 00:56:15,839
Speaker 9: Feeding Our Future, Feeding our Future. Feeding our Future went

778
00:56:16,160 --> 00:56:20,799
Speaker 9: to the to the welfare authorities in the state of Minnesota,

779
00:56:21,120 --> 00:56:26,520
Speaker 9: which of course was administering federal taxpayer money, and they said, look,

780
00:56:27,719 --> 00:56:32,640
Speaker 9: feeding our Feeding our Children said, Feeding our Future said,

781
00:56:33,160 --> 00:56:37,600
Speaker 9: we want to feed hungry children in the Somali community,

782
00:56:38,360 --> 00:56:45,200
Speaker 9: and the welfare people in state government in Minnesota gave

783
00:56:45,239 --> 00:56:51,759
Speaker 9: them the money to do that. It started out very small,

784
00:56:51,880 --> 00:56:55,360
Speaker 9: but the idea was that that Feeding the Future, the

785
00:56:55,360 --> 00:57:01,120
Speaker 9: the Somali nonprofit organization, would take this federal taxpayer money,

786
00:57:01,160 --> 00:57:04,520
Speaker 9: American taxpayer money and go to businesses.

787
00:57:04,640 --> 00:57:09,440
Speaker 1: Most of more on what Senator Kennedy said about Somali

788
00:57:09,520 --> 00:57:12,040
Speaker 1: fraud and theft. When we come back, triple eight nine

789
00:57:12,080 --> 00:57:13,520
Speaker 1: seven one seven two four.

790
00:57:13,480 --> 00:57:22,680
Speaker 9: Three five, John sal.

791
00:57:23,880 --> 00:57:25,280
Speaker 18: I said, you could be done.

792
00:57:25,360 --> 00:57:30,480
Speaker 19: I do in mind.

793
00:57:30,840 --> 00:57:34,600
Speaker 1: Come in late night in the morning. I just triple

794
00:57:34,600 --> 00:57:37,120
Speaker 1: eight nineteven one s a g E. Triple eight nine

795
00:57:37,160 --> 00:57:39,400
Speaker 1: seven one seven two four to three Larry Elders sail

796
00:57:39,440 --> 00:57:42,480
Speaker 1: in this channel, we're talking about Somali fraud with much

797
00:57:42,560 --> 00:57:44,520
Speaker 1: larger we're talking about why the government is in the

798
00:57:44,520 --> 00:57:48,880
Speaker 1: business of welfare in the first place. Before going back

799
00:57:48,920 --> 00:57:56,880
Speaker 1: to Senator Kennedy, I mentioned earlier about dependency. Lennon Johnson,

800
00:57:56,920 --> 00:58:03,160
Speaker 1: of course, launched the graces in the sixties, and since then,

801
00:58:03,200 --> 00:58:06,040
Speaker 1: the percentage of kids who ended the world without a

802
00:58:06,080 --> 00:58:08,960
Speaker 1: father in the home merit of mother has skyrocketed, not

803
00:58:09,000 --> 00:58:13,360
Speaker 1: just in the Black community, but also in the white community.

804
00:58:15,000 --> 00:58:18,040
Speaker 1: And what the Gray Society did was to incentivize women

805
00:58:18,120 --> 00:58:20,920
Speaker 1: to marry the government, as I said many times, and

806
00:58:20,960 --> 00:58:26,840
Speaker 1: to incentivize men to abandon their financial and moral responsibility.

807
00:58:27,440 --> 00:58:29,120
Speaker 1: What do you think will be the effect of all

808
00:58:29,160 --> 00:58:32,880
Speaker 1: this welfare in the Somali community, five, ten, fifteen, twenty

809
00:58:32,960 --> 00:58:37,200
Speaker 1: years down the road. Right now, more than half of

810
00:58:38,080 --> 00:58:42,840
Speaker 1: children of Somali immigrants live in poverty versus only eight

811
00:58:42,880 --> 00:58:49,800
Speaker 1: percent of the native Minnesota population. Thirty nine percent of

812
00:58:49,840 --> 00:58:53,360
Speaker 1: working age Somalis have no high school diploma compared to

813
00:58:53,400 --> 00:58:57,320
Speaker 1: just five percent of Natives. And as I mentioned earlier,

814
00:58:57,440 --> 00:59:01,040
Speaker 1: among working age adult Somalis, we have lived here for

815
00:59:01,120 --> 00:59:04,240
Speaker 1: more than ten years, half cannot speak English very well.

816
00:59:06,360 --> 00:59:10,240
Speaker 1: Do you think this no question to ask fraud written

817
00:59:10,400 --> 00:59:14,760
Speaker 1: welfare will and sentivise Somali's to be more self sufficient

818
00:59:15,720 --> 00:59:19,680
Speaker 1: to improve their educational skills or will it make them

819
00:59:20,080 --> 00:59:27,360
Speaker 1: more dependent less productive? Back to Senator Kennedy.

820
00:59:27,840 --> 00:59:30,720
Speaker 9: Gave them the money to do that. It started out

821
00:59:32,240 --> 00:59:37,720
Speaker 9: very small, but the idea was that feeding the future

822
00:59:37,960 --> 00:59:44,040
Speaker 9: the Somali nonprofit organization would take this federal taxpayer money,

823
00:59:44,080 --> 00:59:48,840
Speaker 9: American taxpayer money and go to businesses, most of which

824
00:59:48,920 --> 00:59:53,800
Speaker 9: were Somali businesses in the Somali community and set up

825
00:59:53,840 --> 00:59:57,720
Speaker 9: feeding sites where they supposedly would take children to get

826
00:59:57,720 --> 01:00:06,800
Speaker 9: at meal on on paper, it sounded great. As I say,

827
01:00:06,880 --> 01:00:13,080
Speaker 9: it started out very very small, just a few a

828
01:00:13,120 --> 01:00:19,680
Speaker 9: few million dollars, but eventually it got bigger and bigger

829
01:00:19,920 --> 01:00:25,240
Speaker 9: and bigger and more businesses in the Somali community signed

830
01:00:25,320 --> 01:00:29,880
Speaker 9: up to be feeding sites and feeding our future. The

831
01:00:29,920 --> 01:00:34,760
Speaker 9: Somali nonprofit kept going back to the Social Services Department

832
01:00:34,800 --> 01:00:37,720
Speaker 9: in Minnesota saying we need more money, we need more money.

833
01:00:38,280 --> 01:00:42,280
Speaker 9: And at the height of the fraud of the fraud,

834
01:00:43,240 --> 01:00:47,720
Speaker 9: they were spending about one hundred million dollars a year,

835
01:00:49,080 --> 01:00:51,880
Speaker 9: not not over the lifetime of the program under a

836
01:00:51,920 --> 01:00:58,800
Speaker 9: million dollars a year. There's just one problem. There were

837
01:00:59,160 --> 01:01:02,760
Speaker 9: there were no home children. They were hungry children. They

838
01:01:02,840 --> 01:01:06,720
Speaker 9: just weren't getting any of the money. And the the

839
01:01:07,280 --> 01:01:13,200
Speaker 9: the businesses, many of which were some oddly owned, which

840
01:01:13,280 --> 01:01:18,280
Speaker 9: were getting some money to feed the children from from

841
01:01:18,280 --> 01:01:23,640
Speaker 9: Feeding our Future, the nonprofit that was quarterbacking this whole thing. Uh,

842
01:01:23,680 --> 01:01:26,080
Speaker 9: they weren't. They weren't giving any of the money to

843
01:01:26,200 --> 01:01:33,400
Speaker 9: hungry children. They were spending it. These businesses were spending

844
01:01:33,440 --> 01:01:38,840
Speaker 9: it on yachts and vacations and jewelry and and and

845
01:01:38,920 --> 01:01:45,560
Speaker 9: furniture for their home. That was scheme number one, but

846
01:01:45,800 --> 01:01:54,080
Speaker 9: it got worse. The second scheme was supposedly, uh, to

847
01:01:54,200 --> 01:01:58,240
Speaker 9: help people who are homeless. Remember I said in America,

848
01:01:58,320 --> 01:02:03,760
Speaker 9: when when, when, when you're homeless, will house you? Well

849
01:02:04,640 --> 01:02:10,080
Speaker 9: that's what they were trying to do. In Minnesota, a

850
01:02:10,120 --> 01:02:15,000
Speaker 9: nonprofit was set up, a game run by someone of

851
01:02:15,080 --> 01:02:19,800
Speaker 9: Somali ancestry. And this nonprofit went to a bunch of

852
01:02:19,920 --> 01:02:26,919
Speaker 9: providers who supposedly were going to provide housing and they

853
01:02:26,960 --> 01:02:31,840
Speaker 9: told the welfare authorities in Minnesota that they needed millions

854
01:02:31,840 --> 01:02:36,560
Speaker 9: of dollars to house people who were homeless, and once again,

855
01:02:36,720 --> 01:02:40,200
Speaker 9: the program started out small when they started it in

856
01:02:40,240 --> 01:02:44,240
Speaker 9: twenty and twenty. These crooks started it in twenty and twenty.

857
01:02:44,720 --> 01:02:47,240
Speaker 9: They said, well, only need two point six million dollars,

858
01:02:50,600 --> 01:02:53,440
Speaker 9: but then in twenty and twenty one they said, we

859
01:02:53,520 --> 01:02:55,360
Speaker 9: need twenty one million dollars more.

860
01:02:55,440 --> 01:02:58,240
Speaker 1: From Senator Kennedy, when we returned Triple eight nine seven

871
01:03:42,160 --> 01:03:46,919
Speaker 1: emphasize something that Kennedy said earlier. He said it quickly,

872
01:03:46,920 --> 01:03:50,640
Speaker 1: he didn't elaborate. Americans are the most generous people on

873
01:03:50,680 --> 01:03:53,400
Speaker 1: the faces of the earth than we are. You look

874
01:03:53,440 --> 01:03:55,760
Speaker 1: at what the Japanese give the charity, the Germans to

875
01:03:55,760 --> 01:03:57,600
Speaker 1: give the charity, the Britgs give the charity. We give

876
01:03:57,920 --> 01:04:06,360
Speaker 1: more during the Great Depression. During the Great Depression, before

877
01:04:06,400 --> 01:04:09,360
Speaker 1: we had all this welfare step, before the New Deal

878
01:04:09,440 --> 01:04:16,480
Speaker 1: kicked in, charitable giving skyrocketed. And after FDR announced all

879
01:04:16,480 --> 01:04:19,920
Speaker 1: these New Deal programs, charita continued to go up, but

880
01:04:20,000 --> 01:04:23,040
Speaker 1: not to the same rate, not to the same degree.

881
01:04:23,720 --> 01:04:27,320
Speaker 1: People felt that they'd given at the office. So it

882
01:04:27,440 --> 01:04:34,520
Speaker 1: diminished the willingness of people to donate to charity, handing

883
01:04:34,520 --> 01:04:37,800
Speaker 1: over the responsibility to the federal government, which by definition

884
01:04:38,400 --> 01:04:42,000
Speaker 1: is less efficient, less effective. Again, as Milton Friedman said,

885
01:04:42,000 --> 01:04:45,320
Speaker 1: four ways of spending money, the least deficient is somebody

886
01:04:45,320 --> 01:04:47,880
Speaker 1: else's money on somebody else, which is exactly what this

887
01:04:48,440 --> 01:04:57,680
Speaker 1: Smaali stuff was. Back to Kennedy.

888
01:04:54,280 --> 01:04:57,520
Speaker 9: Started it in twenty twenty, they said we only need

889
01:04:57,560 --> 01:05:03,800
Speaker 9: two point six million dollars. But then in twenty and

890
01:05:03,880 --> 01:05:06,920
Speaker 9: twenty one they said we need twenty one million dollars,

891
01:05:09,080 --> 01:05:13,080
Speaker 9: and in the following years they said we need forty

892
01:05:13,080 --> 01:05:17,440
Speaker 9: two million dollars. The next year, then seventy four million

893
01:05:17,520 --> 01:05:21,480
Speaker 9: dollars to feed or rather to house the homeless, than

894
01:05:21,520 --> 01:05:26,360
Speaker 9: one hundred and four million dollars a year, not the

895
01:05:26,400 --> 01:05:32,520
Speaker 9: total scheme a year. It's this one problem. None of

896
01:05:32,560 --> 01:05:36,880
Speaker 9: the money was going for housing. None of the money

897
01:05:37,080 --> 01:05:43,400
Speaker 9: was going to help people who were homeless. These providers

898
01:05:43,440 --> 01:05:47,120
Speaker 9: and this nonprofit that was coordinating it just put the

899
01:05:47,200 --> 01:05:54,040
Speaker 9: money in their pocket. But there's more. They came up

900
01:05:54,080 --> 01:06:01,560
Speaker 9: with a third scheme. This one is this one. This

901
01:06:01,600 --> 01:06:03,920
Speaker 9: one makes you want to throw up on a potted plant.

902
01:06:05,400 --> 01:06:17,960
Speaker 9: This one centered around autistic children once again. In this third.

903
01:06:17,760 --> 01:06:26,480
Speaker 21: Program, a group group of of of providers, supposedly medical providers,

904
01:06:26,520 --> 01:06:29,440
Speaker 21: got together and they went to the welfare authorities in

905
01:06:29,480 --> 01:06:33,320
Speaker 21: Minnesota and said, we need money to help autistic children.

906
01:06:34,360 --> 01:06:38,280
Speaker 9: You said, well, that's a wonderful thing to do. And

907
01:06:38,320 --> 01:06:42,560
Speaker 9: then these providers, once the welfare department and at the

908
01:06:42,600 --> 01:06:46,840
Speaker 9: state government in Minnesota gave them the okay, they went

909
01:06:46,880 --> 01:06:51,560
Speaker 9: out and started recruiting autistic children. He said, well, okay,

910
01:06:52,280 --> 01:06:55,440
Speaker 9: we have to get the word out somehow. But they

911
01:06:55,480 --> 01:07:00,320
Speaker 9: couldn't find very many autistic children. So they started going

912
01:07:00,880 --> 01:07:08,240
Speaker 9: to parents in the Somali community and saying, can we

913
01:07:08,360 --> 01:07:13,439
Speaker 9: call your child autistic? Can we certify that your child

914
01:07:13,520 --> 01:07:16,240
Speaker 9: is autistic? If you'll let us do that, we'll pay

915
01:07:16,280 --> 01:07:21,320
Speaker 9: you a bribe anywhere from four hundred dollars to fifteen

916
01:07:21,440 --> 01:07:30,360
Speaker 9: hundred dollars a child. Now once again the program it

917
01:07:30,400 --> 01:07:38,680
Speaker 9: didn't start spit big. These were sophisticated crooks and its

918
01:07:38,800 --> 01:07:45,720
Speaker 9: leader was a woman by the name of Asha farbond Hassan.

919
01:07:48,000 --> 01:07:51,160
Speaker 9: She was also in by the way, on the feeding

920
01:07:51,480 --> 01:07:58,280
Speaker 9: of the children scam as well. And it is best

921
01:07:58,360 --> 01:08:04,840
Speaker 9: we can tell. They approach parents only in the Somali community.

922
01:08:05,800 --> 01:08:08,880
Speaker 9: Once again, they couldn't find enough autistic children, so they

923
01:08:08,920 --> 01:08:11,960
Speaker 9: bribed the many parents in the community, gave them money

924
01:08:12,600 --> 01:08:17,559
Speaker 9: to what to certify that their children were autistic. In

925
01:08:17,560 --> 01:08:19,920
Speaker 9: the first year, they only they were clever. They only

926
01:08:19,960 --> 01:08:25,639
Speaker 9: asked for three million dollars. The second year in twenty nineteen,

927
01:08:26,840 --> 01:08:30,240
Speaker 9: they asked for fifty four million dollars. Then in twenty

928
01:08:30,400 --> 01:08:35,120
Speaker 9: twenty they went up to seventy seven million dollars, and

929
01:08:35,160 --> 01:08:37,920
Speaker 9: then in twenty twenty one they really got greedy. They

930
01:08:37,960 --> 01:08:41,439
Speaker 9: went to one hundred and eighty three million dollars, and

931
01:08:41,520 --> 01:08:46,439
Speaker 9: in twenty two two hundred and eighty million dollars and

932
01:08:46,479 --> 01:08:51,200
Speaker 9: in two thousand and twenty three four hundred million dollars.

933
01:08:52,960 --> 01:08:59,440
Speaker 9: All total. In these three fraud schemes, these crooks stoled

934
01:09:00,080 --> 01:09:06,760
Speaker 9: one billion dollars of taxpayer money and as the work

935
01:09:06,840 --> 01:09:09,679
Speaker 9: the the well I started to say the worst part,

936
01:09:09,760 --> 01:09:16,519
Speaker 9: but let me amend it equally bad part. You say, well, well, hello,

937
01:09:16,800 --> 01:09:21,320
Speaker 9: how could this happen? Why isn't the people in the

938
01:09:21,360 --> 01:09:26,000
Speaker 9: Department of Social Services and the Welfare department in state government,

939
01:09:27,479 --> 01:09:30,320
Speaker 9: when they saw these claims arising? Why why didn't they

940
01:09:30,320 --> 01:09:34,120
Speaker 9: say something? Didn't they go out and check these businesses

941
01:09:34,160 --> 01:09:37,839
Speaker 9: that were supposedly sites to feed homeless children?

942
01:09:39,320 --> 01:09:39,519
Speaker 6: Uh?

943
01:09:39,560 --> 01:09:42,280
Speaker 9: Didn't they go go uh talk to some of the

944
01:09:42,360 --> 01:09:44,320
Speaker 9: children and their parents to see if some of the

945
01:09:44,400 --> 01:09:49,920
Speaker 9: children really were autistic? Didn't didn't the state authorities go

946
01:09:50,040 --> 01:09:52,320
Speaker 9: out and say, can you show us one of the

947
01:09:52,479 --> 01:09:55,920
Speaker 9: homes that you're providing to the homeless people, after all,

948
01:09:56,000 --> 01:10:02,640
Speaker 9: was spending a billion dollars. They didn't because the politicians

949
01:10:03,520 --> 01:10:09,040
Speaker 9: wouldn't let them. And and the crooks who were setting

950
01:10:09,080 --> 01:10:14,320
Speaker 9: all this up, they're pretty smart. I'll give you one example.

951
01:10:15,760 --> 01:10:20,360
Speaker 9: Remember I talked about the nonprofit involved in feeding the

952
01:10:20,439 --> 01:10:28,200
Speaker 9: so called hungry children called Feeding the Future. The rank

953
01:10:28,280 --> 01:10:36,240
Speaker 9: and foul employees and the welfare office started getting suspicious

954
01:10:36,280 --> 01:10:39,720
Speaker 9: when the claims went up, and they contacted Feeding our

955
01:10:39,760 --> 01:10:43,240
Speaker 9: Future and they said, hey, what's going on here? You

956
01:10:43,280 --> 01:10:45,680
Speaker 9: know we're gonna start cutting off these claims because it's

957
01:10:45,720 --> 01:10:50,960
Speaker 9: getting a little bit bit expensive, and you know what,

958
01:10:51,040 --> 01:10:57,679
Speaker 9: feeding our future did. They threatened the employees. They said,

959
01:10:57,760 --> 01:11:00,840
Speaker 9: if you, if you cut off our money.

960
01:11:01,360 --> 01:11:04,040
Speaker 1: This was several days ago. Since san the estimated amount

961
01:11:04,040 --> 01:11:06,599
Speaker 1: of fraud has risen from one billion to eight to

962
01:11:06,720 --> 01:11:10,880
Speaker 1: nine billion dollars. Now. Relief Factor loves hearing from pain

963

Speaker 1: free customers and hopes we can help you next. Here's

964
01:11:14,680 --> 01:11:17,920
Speaker 1: what Bill says. I've been crawling under sinks and working

965
01:11:17,960 --> 01:11:21,440
Speaker 1: long hours for decades. My back and knees took the punishment.

966
01:11:21,840 --> 01:11:24,760
Speaker 1: I thought pain was just part of the trade, but

967
01:11:24,880 --> 01:11:28,400
Speaker 1: Relief Factor surprised me. Within weeks, I was working without wincing.

968
01:11:29,120 --> 01:11:30,800
Speaker 1: I could get down on the floor and get back

969
01:11:30,880 --> 01:11:34,160
Speaker 1: up again without thinking twice. End of quote. Bill knows

970
01:11:34,200 --> 01:11:37,920
Speaker 1: hard work, knows pipes, tools and long days on the job.

971
01:11:38,400 --> 01:11:40,800
Speaker 1: What he didn't know is how good life feels when

972
01:11:40,840 --> 01:11:44,759
Speaker 1: pain stops tagging along. Relief Factor didn't change Bill's trade,

973
01:11:45,040 --> 01:11:48,200
Speaker 1: it changed his tomorrow. And I told you how it

974
01:11:48,200 --> 01:11:51,960
Speaker 1: benefited my brother Kirk. Relief Factors one hundred percent drug

981
01:12:21,000 --> 01:12:24,240
Speaker 1: You're talking about Somali fraud and the presentation that Senator

982
01:12:24,280 --> 01:12:26,519
Speaker 1: Kennedy made several days ago. Since then, the estimate has

983
01:12:26,560 --> 01:12:29,599
Speaker 1: gone from one billion stolen eight or nine billion stolen.

984
01:12:29,680 --> 01:12:33,639
Speaker 1: We're going to finish his statement, and then the next

985
01:12:33,640 --> 01:12:37,400
Speaker 1: hour we're going to talk about the big article in

986
01:12:37,479 --> 01:12:43,760
Speaker 1: City Journal about whether the environmental rules in California could

987
01:12:43,760 --> 01:12:49,120
Speaker 1: it prevented the massive, massive Palisades fire. The concern about

988
01:12:49,479 --> 01:12:57,439
Speaker 1: preserving archaeological sites and economically ecologically important plants might very

989
01:12:57,439 --> 01:13:01,439
Speaker 1: well have been the primary reason that the Palisades fire

990
01:13:01,640 --> 01:13:03,840
Speaker 1: took place. But first back to Sanata, Canaedy.

991
01:13:05,200 --> 01:13:07,639
Speaker 9: They sent them an email and they did it by phone.

992
01:13:08,120 --> 01:13:13,599
Speaker 9: They told the state agency that failing to promptly approve

993
01:13:13,720 --> 01:13:20,160
Speaker 9: new applicants from minority owned businesses would result in a lawsuit,

994
01:13:21,920 --> 01:13:27,880
Speaker 9: a lawsuit feeding accusations of racism that would be scrawled

995
01:13:29,360 --> 01:13:35,400
Speaker 9: across the news, Sprawled across the news, feeding feeding our futures.

996
01:13:35,520 --> 01:13:38,679
Speaker 9: Went to the state and said, if you stop giving

997
01:13:38,760 --> 01:13:41,920
Speaker 9: us this money, we're going to call you racist and

998
01:13:41,920 --> 01:13:43,479
Speaker 9: we're going to sue you. And you don't want to

999
01:13:43,479 --> 01:13:52,519
Speaker 9: be in the news. Now here's what And you said, well,

1000
01:13:52,520 --> 01:13:57,280
Speaker 9: why didn't the employees do something? They did, They told

1001
01:13:57,280 --> 01:13:59,680
Speaker 9: the people higher up, the people with the flags in

1002
01:13:59,720 --> 01:14:05,960
Speaker 9: their office, and you know what, they did nothing. You

1003
01:14:06,000 --> 01:14:11,280
Speaker 9: know why, Well, here's what the legislative auditor in Minnesota said.

1004
01:14:12,680 --> 01:14:16,479
Speaker 9: He said that the threat of litigation and the negative

1005
01:14:16,520 --> 01:14:22,120
Speaker 9: press affected how the state politicians used their regulatory power.

1006
01:14:23,680 --> 01:14:27,200
Speaker 9: And here's what a fraud investigator in the Attorney General's

1007
01:14:27,240 --> 01:14:33,519
Speaker 9: office said. She said, there is a perception that I'm

1008
01:14:33,600 --> 01:14:38,160
Speaker 9: quoting now that forcefully tackling tackling this issue would cause

1009
01:14:38,280 --> 01:14:43,200
Speaker 9: political backlash from the Somali community, which is a core

1010
01:14:43,560 --> 01:14:57,080
Speaker 9: voting block for Democrats. And in fact, one of one

1011
01:14:57,160 --> 01:15:00,320
Speaker 9: of the other witnesses and the fraud investigation said, look,

1012
01:15:01,360 --> 01:15:04,040
Speaker 9: total prosecutors, let me just give you a cold dish

1013
01:15:04,040 --> 01:15:12,200
Speaker 9: of truth. The eighty thousand voting block of folks with

1014
01:15:12,240 --> 01:15:16,760
Speaker 9: Somali ancestry. You gotta have their votes to win in Minneapolis.

1015
01:15:17,960 --> 01:15:20,720
Speaker 9: And if you're a Democrat. You can't win Minneapolis, you

1016
01:15:20,760 --> 01:15:26,879
Speaker 9: can't win in the state. So the politicians did nothing.

1017
01:15:30,479 --> 01:15:34,040
Speaker 9: Don't just take my word for it, and don't blame them.

1018
01:15:34,240 --> 01:15:36,120
Speaker 9: The state employees, they tried.

1019
01:15:37,240 --> 01:15:40,400
Speaker 1: When we come back, more on tender to Kennedy. It

1020
01:15:40,520 --> 01:15:44,599
Speaker 1: is the year anniversary of the LA wildfires. Could the biggest,

1021
01:15:44,640 --> 01:15:48,839
Speaker 1: most deadly one been avoided? I'm Larry elder that's.

1022
01:15:48,760 --> 01:15:54,160
Speaker 9: Me bye, you see in my eyes and let us

Speaker 1: coming up. It is the first anniversary of the La wildfires.

1027
01:16:16,240 --> 01:16:19,960
Speaker 1: There's a massive lawsuit that claims California's environmental rules and

1028
01:16:20,000 --> 01:16:25,240
Speaker 1: policies are responsible for the Pacific Palisades fire. All of

1029
01:16:25,240 --> 01:16:30,880
Speaker 1: that and more. Here is the rest of Senator Kennedy.

1030
01:16:31,479 --> 01:16:38,200
Speaker 9: The eighty thousand voting block of folks with Somali ancestry.

1031
01:16:38,320 --> 01:16:41,160
Speaker 9: You got to have their votes to win in Minneapolis.

1032
01:16:41,960 --> 01:16:44,720
Speaker 9: And if you're a Democrat, you can't win Minneapolis. You

1033
01:16:44,760 --> 01:16:50,879
Speaker 9: can't win in the state. So the politicians did nothing.

1034
01:16:54,479 --> 01:16:58,000
Speaker 9: Don't just take my word for and don't blame them.

1035
01:16:58,200 --> 01:17:03,800
Speaker 9: The state employees they try. In fact, recently the state

1036
01:17:03,920 --> 01:17:10,720
Speaker 9: employees they just said, look, we've had enough. They posted this.

1037
01:17:11,960 --> 01:17:16,240
Speaker 9: These are over several hundred employees from the Minnesota Department

1038
01:17:16,280 --> 01:17:22,120
Speaker 9: of Human Service who administered this program, who just get

1039
01:17:22,200 --> 01:17:24,160
Speaker 9: up every day and go to work and do their

1040
01:17:24,240 --> 01:17:27,639
Speaker 9: job and want to help people. This is what they

1041
01:17:27,680 --> 01:17:34,879
Speaker 9: posted on social media. I'm quoting down, mister President. Governor

1042
01:17:34,920 --> 01:17:39,240
Speaker 9: Tim Walls is one hundred percent responsible for massive fraud

1043
01:17:39,360 --> 01:17:45,360
Speaker 9: in Minnesota. I'm sure he wasn't the only one, because

1044
01:17:45,400 --> 01:17:49,120
Speaker 9: this fraud was an open secret, but I'm quoting from

1045
01:17:49,160 --> 01:17:53,040
Speaker 9: what the employee said. Governor Tim Wallas is one hundred

1046
01:17:53,080 --> 01:17:58,200
Speaker 9: percent responsible for massive fraud in Minnesota. We let Tim

1047
01:17:58,320 --> 01:18:05,839
Speaker 9: Walts know of fraud early on, said employees talking, hoping

1048
01:18:05,880 --> 01:18:09,760
Speaker 9: for a partnership and stopping fraud. But no, we got

1049
01:18:09,800 --> 01:18:19,880
Speaker 9: the opposite response. Tim Waltz systematically retaliated against whistleblowers, using monitoring,

1050
01:18:21,000 --> 01:18:27,640
Speaker 9: using threats, using repression, and did his best to discredit

1051
01:18:27,840 --> 01:18:34,040
Speaker 9: fraud reports. Instead of partnership, we got the full weight

1052
01:18:34,200 --> 01:18:44,680
Speaker 9: of retaliation by Tim Walls and an indifferent mainstream media.

1053
01:18:45,080 --> 01:18:52,360
Speaker 9: It's scary, isolating, and left us wondering who we can

1054
01:18:53,080 --> 01:19:00,000
Speaker 9: return to. And now there are reports coming out, mister President.

1055
01:19:00,280 --> 01:19:03,040
Speaker 9: I don't know if they're true, but I know the

1056
01:19:03,120 --> 01:19:08,479
Speaker 9: prosecutors are desperately trying to get the bottom up. And

1057
01:19:08,560 --> 01:19:11,320
Speaker 9: I don't want to say that this is true, but

1058
01:19:11,400 --> 01:19:16,479
Speaker 9: a report came out in a publication called Senate City Journal,

1059
01:19:16,560 --> 01:19:21,320
Speaker 9: which is published by the Manhattan Institute, and they are

1060
01:19:21,400 --> 01:19:27,120
Speaker 9: alleging that money, part of this billion dollars that was stolen.

1061
01:19:29,439 --> 01:19:32,080
Speaker 9: They are alleging that at least a portion of it

1062
01:19:32,479 --> 01:19:38,400
Speaker 9: went to a terrorist organization in Somalia that we've all

1063
01:19:38,439 --> 01:19:43,600
Speaker 9: heard of. It's notorious. It's an organization called Al Shabab.

1064
01:19:45,439 --> 01:19:50,920
Speaker 9: They hate Americans, they're terrorists. They want to kill Americans

1065
01:19:50,920 --> 01:19:54,760
Speaker 9: and drink their blood out of a boot. They were

1066
01:19:54,840 --> 01:19:59,439
Speaker 9: taking a cut according to this claim. Again, I don't

1067
01:19:59,479 --> 01:20:03,960
Speaker 9: know if it's t true, but the prosecutor prosecutors are

1068
01:20:04,000 --> 01:20:13,280
Speaker 9: trying to get to the bottom of it. Now, there's

1069
01:20:13,360 --> 01:20:19,040
Speaker 9: been a lot of allegations about racism in these reports.

1070
01:20:19,120 --> 01:20:22,599
Speaker 9: They're saying, oh, you're just picking on the Somali community.

1071
01:20:22,680 --> 01:20:28,040
Speaker 9: I'm not, and I don't think the American people are.

1072
01:20:29,200 --> 01:20:33,519
Speaker 9: I think what they're picking on the crooks, they're picking

1073
01:20:33,520 --> 01:20:38,639
Speaker 9: on crooks. What everything I just gave you facts, mister President,

1074
01:20:39,360 --> 01:20:42,680
Speaker 9: has nothing to do with race. But it is a

1075
01:20:42,760 --> 01:20:47,440
Speaker 9: fact that this one these one billion dollar script schemes

1076
01:20:48,200 --> 01:20:54,680
Speaker 9: were cooked up by leaders in the Somali community in

1077
01:20:54,760 --> 01:20:59,400
Speaker 9: Minneapolis and in Minnesota. And it is a fact that

1078
01:20:59,479 --> 01:21:03,200
Speaker 9: most of the businesses that participated in this fraud and

1079
01:21:03,280 --> 01:21:09,320
Speaker 9: this thievery were run by people of Somali ancestry. I'm

1080
01:21:09,320 --> 01:21:11,800
Speaker 9: not saying that's a good thing. I'm gonna send some

1081
01:21:11,840 --> 01:21:14,479
Speaker 9: bat That's just a fact, and I don't think we

1082
01:21:14,520 --> 01:21:18,000
Speaker 9: ought not to talk about it. And it is a

1083
01:21:18,080 --> 01:21:24,320
Speaker 9: fact that the kickbacks paid to parents to allow their

1084
01:21:24,400 --> 01:21:29,320
Speaker 9: children to be signed up as autistic in order to

1085
01:21:29,360 --> 01:21:34,360
Speaker 9: get the federal taxpayer money, the parents were of Somali ancestry.

1086
01:21:34,960 --> 01:21:38,600
Speaker 9: It doesn't give me any pleasure to say that, but

1087
01:21:38,720 --> 01:21:42,920
Speaker 9: it is a fact. And it is a fact that

1088
01:21:43,040 --> 01:21:47,360
Speaker 9: the politicians, not the employees, the rank and file employees

1089
01:21:47,439 --> 01:21:51,559
Speaker 9: and the welfare officers, but the politicians in Minnesota let

1090
01:21:51,600 --> 01:22:02,360
Speaker 9: this happen. It is disgusting, mister President, disgusting. We're trying

1091
01:22:02,360 --> 01:22:06,840
Speaker 9: to put together a budget right now, and we've got

1092
01:22:06,920 --> 01:22:12,280
Speaker 9: state officials in Minnesota because they wanted votes that are

1093
01:22:12,320 --> 01:22:16,320
Speaker 9: allowing people and their state who were cruks to steal

1094
01:22:16,840 --> 01:22:20,840
Speaker 9: one billion dollars from the American taxpayer, money that could

1095
01:22:20,840 --> 01:22:24,439
Speaker 9: have gone to people who really were homeless, and children

1096
01:22:24,439 --> 01:22:28,000
Speaker 9: who really were hungry, and kids who threw no fault

1097
01:22:28,000 --> 01:22:31,920
Speaker 9: of their own, really were autistic, instead of stolen a

1098
01:22:32,000 --> 01:22:36,040
Speaker 9: portion of which allegedly was sent to a terrorist organization

1099
01:22:36,520 --> 01:22:43,519
Speaker 9: in Somalia. Man, these people ought to all be put

1100
01:22:43,640 --> 01:22:50,120
Speaker 9: in jail, including the politicians. Makes me want to stick

1101
01:22:50,160 --> 01:22:51,080
Speaker 9: my head in another.

1102
01:22:54,479 --> 01:22:59,599
Speaker 1: Back in November, elin Omar attacked Trump because Trump dared

1103
01:22:59,600 --> 01:23:02,960
Speaker 1: to size the fraud taking place in the Somali community.

1104
01:23:03,120 --> 01:23:03,799
Speaker 1: Number fourteen.

1105
01:23:07,240 --> 01:23:11,240
Speaker 19: What we also know is that there is not a

1106
01:23:11,400 --> 01:23:16,559
Speaker 19: single evidence that the President or his conies have put

1107
01:23:16,640 --> 01:23:22,080
Speaker 19: forth that there are any single resource from taxpayers in

1108
01:23:22,200 --> 01:23:28,439
Speaker 19: Minnesota that has gone to aid and obey terrorism. That

1109
01:23:28,680 --> 01:23:34,440
Speaker 19: language is dangerous. That language puts the lives of Somali's

1110
01:23:34,520 --> 01:23:38,360
Speaker 19: not only in Minnesota but across the country in danger.

1111
01:23:39,800 --> 01:23:43,400
Speaker 1: But a month later she changed her tune.

1112
01:23:43,600 --> 01:23:48,240
Speaker 12: Number fifteen, who has tax dollars is being sent to

1113
01:23:48,320 --> 01:23:53,320
Speaker 12: help with terrorism in Somalia? We want to know, and

1114
01:23:53,360 --> 01:23:56,479
Speaker 12: we want those people prosecuted, and we want to make

1115
01:23:56,520 --> 01:23:58,519
Speaker 12: sure that that doesn't ever happen again.

1116
01:24:00,120 --> 01:24:02,200
Speaker 1: So went from there's no evidence to we want to

1117
01:24:02,200 --> 01:24:06,759
Speaker 1: know those people to be prosecuted. Tim Walls, after announcing

1118
01:24:06,760 --> 01:24:08,479
Speaker 1: he was not going to run for a third term

1119
01:24:08,479 --> 01:24:13,880
Speaker 1: because of the Somali fraud, of course, attacked Trump number twenty.

1120
01:24:14,640 --> 01:24:17,080
Speaker 22: I don't want to mince words here. Donald Trump and

1121
01:24:17,120 --> 01:24:20,280
Speaker 22: his allies in Washington and in Saint Paul and online

1122
01:24:20,800 --> 01:24:23,840
Speaker 22: want to make our state a colder, meaner place. They

1123
01:24:23,840 --> 01:24:27,240
Speaker 22: want to poison our people against each other by attacking

1124
01:24:27,240 --> 01:24:30,639
Speaker 22: our neighbors, and ultimately they want to take away much

1125
01:24:30,640 --> 01:24:33,519
Speaker 22: of what makes Minnesota the best place in the country

1126
01:24:33,560 --> 01:24:37,160
Speaker 22: to raise a family. They've already begun trying to withhold

1127
01:24:37,200 --> 01:24:40,720
Speaker 22: funds that were meant to help families afford childcare, and

1128
01:24:40,760 --> 01:24:43,960
Speaker 22: they have no intention of stopping there. Make no mistake,

1129
01:24:44,600 --> 01:24:48,360
Speaker 22: we should be concerned about fraud in our state government.

1130
01:24:48,800 --> 01:24:52,719
Speaker 22: We cannot effectively deliver programs and services if we can't

1131
01:24:52,720 --> 01:24:53,839
Speaker 22: earn the public's trust.

1132
01:24:55,080 --> 01:24:59,160
Speaker 1: Now, he did not mention Nick Shirley, the independent journalists

1133
01:24:59,200 --> 01:25:02,040
Speaker 1: that embarrassed everybody by name, but that's who we met.

1134
01:25:02,320 --> 01:25:05,240
Speaker 1: Number twenty one.

1135
01:25:06,479 --> 01:25:11,400
Speaker 23: We've got conspiracy theorists, right wing YouTubers breaking into our daycares,

1136
01:25:11,840 --> 01:25:16,360
Speaker 23: demanding access to our children. We've got the president of

1137
01:25:16,400 --> 01:25:21,920
Speaker 23: the United States demonizing our Somali neighbors and wrongfully confiscating

1138
01:25:22,000 --> 01:25:24,000
Speaker 23: funds that Minnesotans rely on.

1139
01:25:24,680 --> 01:25:27,840
Speaker 9: It's disgusting and it's dangerous.

1140
01:25:29,880 --> 01:25:35,599
Speaker 1: And while we're talking about hypocrisy, this is President Joe

1141
01:25:35,680 --> 01:25:39,760
Speaker 1: Biden in twenty twenty four explaining why the border is

1142
01:25:39,800 --> 01:25:42,200
Speaker 1: not secure and blaming it, of course, on you know who,

1143
01:25:42,720 --> 01:25:43,559
Speaker 1: number thirty six.

1144
01:25:46,920 --> 01:25:49,240
Speaker 9: Every day between now and November, the American people are

1145
01:25:49,280 --> 01:25:52,240
Speaker 9: going to know that the only reason the border is

1146
01:25:52,280 --> 01:25:56,840
Speaker 9: not secure is Donald Trump and as Magai Republican friends.

1147
01:25:58,160 --> 01:26:01,160
Speaker 1: That is not Warren Well here reads. The border is

1148
01:26:01,160 --> 01:26:04,799
Speaker 1: not secured is Donald Trump and his Maga Republican friends.

1149
01:26:05,680 --> 01:26:09,960
Speaker 1: The man returns to office in one month. Border is

1150
01:26:10,000 --> 01:26:16,120
Speaker 1: secured by Donald Trump and his Maga Republican friends. We

1151
01:26:16,200 --> 01:26:21,599
Speaker 1: come back. Was the Pacific Palisades Fire entirely avoidable? Triple

1152
01:26:21,600 --> 01:26:23,800
Speaker 1: eight nine seven one s A g E. I Am

1153
01:26:23,880 --> 01:26:31,080
Speaker 1: Larry Elder, do not leave town? Triple eight nine seven

1154
01:26:31,160 --> 01:26:34,240
Speaker 1: one sage triple eight nine seven one seven two four

1155
01:26:34,280 --> 01:26:36,120
Speaker 1: to three Larry Elder sail on the news channel. It

1156
01:26:36,200 --> 01:26:38,760
Speaker 1: is the first year anniversary, if you want to call

1157
01:26:38,760 --> 01:26:42,120
Speaker 1: it that, of the LA Fires. Now, there's a long

1158
01:26:42,240 --> 01:26:47,160
Speaker 1: article about the mistakes were made, bad policy that resulted

1159
01:26:48,800 --> 01:26:56,280
Speaker 1: in the Palisades Fire, seven thousand structures, destroy twenty three

1160
01:26:56,280 --> 01:27:03,280
Speaker 1: thousand acres, the deaths. The article is in the City Journal,

1161
01:27:03,280 --> 01:27:08,760
Speaker 1: published by the Manhattan Institute. That's the publication that John

1162
01:27:08,840 --> 01:27:11,200
Speaker 1: Kennedy just referred to. It's a conservative publication, so let's

1163
01:27:11,240 --> 01:27:15,320
Speaker 1: ignore that for now. I'm holding in my baby brown

1164
01:27:15,320 --> 01:27:18,080
Speaker 1: libertarian fingers an article from the Los Angeles Times, which

1165
01:27:18,120 --> 01:27:23,439
Speaker 1: is by no means conservative, and the very fact that

1166
01:27:23,479 --> 01:27:28,040
Speaker 1: this is in the LA Times is pretty stunning. The

1167
01:27:28,080 --> 01:27:32,320
Speaker 1: newspaper that endorsed the candidacy of Karen Bass, endorsed the

1168
01:27:32,360 --> 01:27:40,639
Speaker 1: candidacy of Gavin Newsom opposed to recall headline LA Fire

1169
01:27:40,680 --> 01:27:46,040
Speaker 1: Department leaders tried to cover up Palisades fire mistakes. The

1170
01:27:46,120 --> 01:27:52,400
Speaker 1: truth still emerged. That's a headline. LA Fire Department leaders

1171
01:27:52,920 --> 01:27:58,240
Speaker 1: tried to cover up Pacific Palisades fire mistakes. The truth

1172
01:27:58,560 --> 01:28:03,559
Speaker 1: still emerged. Very very long article. Only have time for

1173
01:28:03,600 --> 01:28:10,800
Speaker 1: some excerpts. Quote. LAFD leaders have engaged in a campaign

1174
01:28:10,960 --> 01:28:15,360
Speaker 1: of secrecy and deflection to avoid taking full responsibility for

1175
01:28:15,400 --> 01:28:21,320
Speaker 1: their mistakes in the January seven fire. With the first

1176
01:28:21,320 --> 01:28:25,880
Speaker 1: anniversary of the fire a week away, questions about the

1177
01:28:25,920 --> 01:28:30,640
Speaker 1: missteps in the firefight remains largely unanswered by LAFD and

1178
01:28:30,760 --> 01:28:36,000
Speaker 1: Mayor Karen Bass Again, this is a paper that endorsed her.

1179
01:28:39,240 --> 01:28:44,840
Speaker 1: Listen to this. Pacific Palisades have been burning for less

1180
01:28:44,880 --> 01:28:48,439
Speaker 1: than two hours when word raced through the ranks of

1181
01:28:48,479 --> 01:28:52,920
Speaker 1: the LAFD that the agency's leaders had failed to pre

1182
01:28:53,000 --> 01:28:56,759
Speaker 1: deploy any extra engines and crews to the area despite

1183
01:28:56,800 --> 01:29:04,519
Speaker 1: pointings of life threatening winds. The LAFD writes the La

1184
01:29:04,640 --> 01:29:08,640
Speaker 1: Times has stopped granting interviews. Ramps in questions for The

1185
01:29:08,680 --> 01:29:12,439
Speaker 1: Times about the matter, wonder why are you familiar with

1186
01:29:12,479 --> 01:29:20,880
Speaker 1: the Lochman fire? La C H M A N. Shortly

1187
01:29:20,880 --> 01:29:26,400
Speaker 1: after midnight on New Year's Day year ago, a man

1188
01:29:26,520 --> 01:29:29,720
Speaker 1: watched flames spread in the distant hills and called nine

1189
01:29:29,720 --> 01:29:34,880
Speaker 1: to one. One very top of Lochman is where we are.

1190
01:29:35,080 --> 01:29:39,280
Speaker 1: He told the dispatcher. It's pretty small, but it's still

1191
01:29:39,320 --> 01:29:42,240
Speaker 1: at the very top and it's growing. Referring to the fire,

1192
01:29:43,600 --> 01:29:49,000
Speaker 1: dispatcher responded, help is on the way. LA Times continues

1193
01:29:49,520 --> 01:29:53,320
Speaker 1: A few hours later, at four forty two. Four forty

1194
01:29:53,360 --> 01:29:57,439
Speaker 1: six am, the LAFD announced that the blades, which later

1195
01:29:57,479 --> 01:30:01,240
Speaker 1: became known as the Lochman Fire, was fully contained at

1196
01:30:01,280 --> 01:30:08,080
Speaker 1: eight acres. Top fire commanders soon made plans to finish

1197
01:30:08,360 --> 01:30:11,320
Speaker 1: mopping up the scene and to leave with their equipment,

1198
01:30:15,720 --> 01:30:19,240
Speaker 1: but firefighters who returned the next day complained to the

1199
01:30:19,240 --> 01:30:23,720
Speaker 1: battalion chief that the ground was still smoldering and rock

1200
01:30:23,840 --> 01:30:32,000
Speaker 1: still felt too hot to touch, but the chief ordered

1201
01:30:32,040 --> 01:30:36,400
Speaker 1: them to roll up their hoses and leave. The battalion chief.

1202
01:30:39,520 --> 01:30:44,640
Speaker 1: Five days after that, the morning of January seventh, an

1203
01:30:44,840 --> 01:30:49,080
Speaker 1: LAFD captain called fire Station twenty three with an urgent

1204
01:30:49,280 --> 01:30:56,800
Speaker 1: message the Lochman Fire had started up again. LAFD officials

1205
01:30:56,920 --> 01:31:01,320
Speaker 1: were emphatic early on that the Lochman Fire was fully extinguished,

1206
01:31:02,160 --> 01:31:05,400
Speaker 1: but both inside and outside the department many were certain

1207
01:31:05,479 --> 01:31:18,280
Speaker 1: it had rekindled. In the after action report that was

1208
01:31:18,400 --> 01:31:22,800
Speaker 1: ordered by the mayor, it contained only a brief mention

1209
01:31:23,000 --> 01:31:27,320
Speaker 1: of the Lochman Fire. I'll tell you more about the

1210
01:31:27,320 --> 01:31:31,439
Speaker 1: Lockman Fire when we talk about the city journal magazine

1211
01:31:31,960 --> 01:31:38,280
Speaker 1: La Times talks about no pre deployment, massive mistake, life threatening,

1212
01:31:38,280 --> 01:31:43,519
Speaker 1: destructive windstorm coming in the past. The LAFD readied for

1213
01:31:43,680 --> 01:31:48,400
Speaker 1: powerful windstorms by pre deploying large numbers of engines and

1214
01:31:48,479 --> 01:31:55,839
Speaker 1: crews to the areas most at risk, in some cases

1215
01:31:55,880 --> 01:31:59,040
Speaker 1: requiring a shift of hundreds of firefighters to stay for

1216
01:31:59,120 --> 01:32:03,559
Speaker 1: a second shift to ensure there was enough personnel to

1217
01:32:03,600 --> 01:32:08,840
Speaker 1: attack a major blaze. None of that happened in the Palisades,

1218
01:32:10,280 --> 01:32:14,040
Speaker 1: with its hilly terrain covered in bone dry brush, even

1219
01:32:14,080 --> 01:32:15,960
Speaker 1: though the Weather Service had flagged it as one of

1220
01:32:16,000 --> 01:32:19,519
Speaker 1: the regions at extreme risk. Again, this is the early

1221
01:32:19,560 --> 01:32:28,000
Speaker 1: time saying this. Without pre deployment, just eighteen firefighters were

1222
01:32:28,000 --> 01:32:33,840
Speaker 1: on duty, LAFD commanders decided to staff only five of

1223
01:32:33,880 --> 01:32:46,519
Speaker 1: the more forty engines available. On January sixth, officials decided

1224
01:32:46,560 --> 01:32:50,400
Speaker 1: to pre deploy just nine engines to high risk areas,

1225
01:32:51,479 --> 01:32:55,400
Speaker 1: adding eight more of the following morning, none of which

1226
01:32:55,720 --> 01:33:00,880
Speaker 1: were sent to the Palisades. Now, let's talk about this

1227
01:33:00,960 --> 01:33:06,439
Speaker 1: after action report. In March, writes the La Times, a

1228
01:33:06,520 --> 01:33:10,680
Speaker 1: working group was formed inside the LAFD to prepare the

1229
01:33:10,720 --> 01:33:18,839
Speaker 1: Palisades fire after action report, but there was all sorts

1230
01:33:18,840 --> 01:33:27,840
Speaker 1: of interference, deletions, minimization. Captain Harold Kim wrote to the

1231
01:33:27,880 --> 01:33:31,959
Speaker 1: battalion chief, I am concerned about the interference from outside

1232
01:33:32,080 --> 01:33:38,880
Speaker 1: entities that may attempt to influence the direction of report takes.

1233
01:33:40,560 --> 01:33:43,160
Speaker 1: LA Times writes as a report got closer to completion,

1234
01:33:44,400 --> 01:33:49,000
Speaker 1: LAFD officials worried about how it would be received, privately

1235
01:33:49,040 --> 01:34:00,920
Speaker 1: formed a second group for crisis management, basically to minimize news.

1236
01:34:02,800 --> 01:34:05,960
Speaker 1: LA Times continues. Over the next two months, the report

1237
01:34:06,000 --> 01:34:13,000
Speaker 1: went through a series of edits behind closed doors. Final report,

1238
01:34:14,439 --> 01:34:17,559
Speaker 1: very different than the initial one, said the pre deployment

1239
01:34:17,640 --> 01:34:24,000
Speaker 1: measures went above and beyond the standard practice, clearly untrue.

1240
01:34:24,680 --> 01:34:33,680
Speaker 1: Former la FD assistant said, when deception is normalized, it

1241
01:34:33,840 --> 01:34:38,360
Speaker 1: normalizes operational failure and puts people at risk. Ind of Cote. Now,

1242
01:34:38,400 --> 01:34:40,160
Speaker 1: I'm gonna talk to you about the Lockman fire when

1243

Speaker 1: the show was brought to you from the relief factor studios.

01:35:21,400 --> 01:35:24,280
Speaker 1: Now let's turn to the long article in the City

1257
01:35:24,360 --> 01:35:29,559
Speaker 1: Journal again. I'll just reach you certain excerpts, and it's

1258
01:35:29,560 --> 01:35:40,280
Speaker 1: about the lochmanfire when that was supposedly fully contained eight

1259
01:35:40,320 --> 01:35:45,400
Speaker 1: acres as opposed to the twenty three thousand acres that

1260
01:35:45,400 --> 01:35:58,479
Speaker 1: were burned, sixty eight hundred structures, destroyed, twelve people, LA's

1261
01:35:58,680 --> 01:36:02,200
Speaker 1: worst urban wildfire catastrophe. I'm referring to the Palisades fire.

1262
01:36:05,160 --> 01:36:07,439
Speaker 1: And the article talks about the various things that were

1263
01:36:07,439 --> 01:36:09,680
Speaker 1: not done, some of which we talked about a moment ago.

1264
01:36:11,080 --> 01:36:15,040
Speaker 1: Dry fire hydrants the dry reservoir for over a year,

1265
01:36:15,200 --> 01:36:23,599
Speaker 1: the failed to deploy personnel fire trucks. But something often

1266
01:36:23,600 --> 01:36:29,479
Speaker 1: overlooked is the reason that this Lockman fire erupted again

1267
01:36:30,280 --> 01:36:37,200
Speaker 1: and widespread. The normal kind of fire suppressman tactics, clearing

1268
01:36:37,200 --> 01:36:42,880
Speaker 1: brush control burns were not done in this area. Why

1269
01:36:43,000 --> 01:36:50,719
Speaker 1: to protect quote sensitive natural and cultural resources, including endangered plants,

1270
01:36:51,880 --> 01:37:03,080
Speaker 1: Native American archaeological sites quote. This allowed nearly a half

1271
01:37:03,240 --> 01:37:10,240
Speaker 1: century of accumulated vegetation that provided fuel for the fire.

1272
01:37:13,760 --> 01:37:18,360
Speaker 1: One of the litigants in the lawsuits says that essentially

1273
01:37:18,360 --> 01:37:25,600
Speaker 1: what California did was put plants over people. In October,

1274
01:37:25,680 --> 01:37:30,439
Speaker 1: a federal investigation confirmed that the Palisades fire was not

1275
01:37:30,560 --> 01:37:34,439
Speaker 1: a new ignition, but a holdover fire from the Lockman fire.

1276
01:37:39,840 --> 01:37:43,400
Speaker 1: For six days. According to the FEDS, the fire smoldered

1277
01:37:43,479 --> 01:37:48,440
Speaker 1: underground in the root systems of the park's dense vegetation.

1278
01:37:54,320 --> 01:38:01,360
Speaker 1: The warnings were there. Firefighters on the scene express concern

1279
01:38:01,439 --> 01:38:06,160
Speaker 1: that the fire remained active. Nevertheless, the firefighters were ordered

1280
01:38:06,160 --> 01:38:11,320
Speaker 1: to leave the smoldering burn, even as weather forecasters talked

1281
01:38:11,320 --> 01:38:15,559
Speaker 1: about these winds we talked about earlier. Quote, why were

1282
01:38:15,600 --> 01:38:18,559
Speaker 1: firefighters pulled off of a fire that was still visibly

1283
01:38:18,560 --> 01:38:22,639
Speaker 1: smoldering and why did no one monitor the burned scar

1284
01:38:23,280 --> 01:38:28,879
Speaker 1: as dangerous fire conditions approached. New evidence from the lawsuit

1285
01:38:28,920 --> 01:38:33,479
Speaker 1: and public records provide the answer, one that comes directly

1286
01:38:33,560 --> 01:38:39,240
Speaker 1: from fire to California State Parks policy. In November twenty

1287
01:38:39,280 --> 01:38:43,639
Speaker 1: twenty four, just weeks before the Polisads fire, California State

1288
01:38:43,680 --> 01:38:50,880
Speaker 1: Parks completed a draft wildfire management plan for Topanga State Park.

1289
01:38:50,960 --> 01:38:57,120
Speaker 1: Thereby reveals a system of policies and maps designed to

1290
01:38:57,200 --> 01:39:04,160
Speaker 1: restrict firefighting operations to protect sensitive and cultural natural resources.

1291
01:39:06,000 --> 01:39:10,519
Speaker 1: Designated large areas as so called avoidance areas, where normal

1292
01:39:10,640 --> 01:39:17,640
Speaker 1: firefighting tactics would be restricted. No heavy equipment, no vehicles,

1293
01:39:18,040 --> 01:39:30,160
Speaker 1: no retardant allowed. When a State Parks employee texted the

1294
01:39:30,280 --> 01:39:33,280
Speaker 1: lafd's heavy equipment supervisor to ask its crew about the

1295
01:39:33,800 --> 01:39:37,880
Speaker 1: Lockman fire, should respond to it. The supervisor responded, and

1296
01:39:37,880 --> 01:39:42,599
Speaker 1: I'm quoting the supervisor, heck, no, that area is full

1297
01:39:42,640 --> 01:39:46,280
Speaker 1: of endangered plants. I would be a real idiot to

1298
01:39:46,360 --> 01:39:49,200
Speaker 1: ever put a dozer in that area. I'm so trained.

1299
01:39:49,400 --> 01:39:57,200
Speaker 1: Close quote. This deference to environmental restrictions will established, according

1300
01:39:57,240 --> 01:40:04,800
Speaker 1: to retired LAFD Battalion chief my castile quote, there's an

1301
01:40:04,840 --> 01:40:08,760
Speaker 1: understanding that this is an ecologically sensitive area, so we

1302
01:40:08,880 --> 01:40:17,120
Speaker 1: better tread lightly. End of quote, prioritizing ecological preservation over

1303
01:40:17,160 --> 01:40:24,679
Speaker 1: fire protection, even in areas adjacent to nearby densely populated neighborhoods.

1304
01:40:29,040 --> 01:40:35,519
Speaker 1: This is what essentially caused the Palisades fire to irupt

1305
01:40:35,520 --> 01:40:40,880
Speaker 1: the way it did. Galvenusom of course, is blaming it

1306
01:40:40,920 --> 01:40:46,720
Speaker 1: on the weather and on climate change, but then that's

1307
01:40:46,720 --> 01:40:51,760
Speaker 1: Galvinussom Now Relief Factor loves hearing from pain free customers.

1308
01:40:52,600 --> 01:40:55,400
Speaker 1: We hope we can help you next. Bill Wrights, I've

1309
01:40:55,439 --> 01:40:59,080
Speaker 1: been crawling under sinks, working long hours for decades, my

1310
01:40:59,160 --> 01:41:02,000
Speaker 1: back and knees to the punishment. I thought pain was

1311
01:41:02,080 --> 01:41:05,800
Speaker 1: just part of the trade, but Relief Factor surprised me.

1312
01:41:06,200 --> 01:41:08,840
Speaker 1: Within weeks, I was working without winsday. I could get

1313
01:41:08,840 --> 01:41:10,599
Speaker 1: down on the floor and get back up again without

1314
01:41:10,600 --> 01:41:14,960
Speaker 1: thinking twice. End of quote. Bill knows hard work, knows pipes,

1315
01:41:15,040 --> 01:41:17,679
Speaker 1: tools and long days on the job. What he didn't

1316
01:41:17,720 --> 01:41:20,759
Speaker 1: know is how good life feels when pain stops. Tagging along.

1317
01:41:21,040 --> 01:41:24,439
Speaker 1: Belief Factor didn't change Bill's trade, but it did change

1318
01:41:24,479 --> 01:41:27,280
Speaker 1: his tomorrow. And I've told you about Kirk having difficulty

1319
01:41:27,320 --> 01:41:29,479
Speaker 1: in the morning going up and down the stairs, not

1320
01:41:29,600 --> 01:41:32,679
Speaker 1: after relief Factor. Relief Factor is one hundred percent drug

1321

1329
01:42:03,800 --> 01:42:06,920
Speaker 25: Yes, hy Larry, are you still talking about Somalia?

1330
01:42:07,080 --> 01:42:07,400
Speaker 1: Sure?

1331
01:42:08,760 --> 01:42:13,000
Speaker 25: Okay, all right, you had your numbers out there. There's

1332
01:42:13,040 --> 01:42:20,080
Speaker 25: only about twelve percent of the Somali's not on welfare, correct, correct? Okay?

1333
01:42:20,640 --> 01:42:23,799
Speaker 1: Not not not on not on some form of welfare.

1334
01:42:23,880 --> 01:42:28,000
Speaker 25: Yes, okay, So all the rest of them are all

1335
01:42:28,040 --> 01:42:31,880
Speaker 25: on staff benefits. Why would they be worried about beeding

1336
01:42:31,920 --> 01:42:32,479
Speaker 25: the future?

1337
01:42:34,439 --> 01:42:36,200
Speaker 1: Why would they be worried about, say again.

1338
01:42:37,520 --> 01:42:41,479
Speaker 25: Beating you know where they was feeding all these starting kids.

1339
01:42:45,280 --> 01:42:48,360
Speaker 25: You know, the program was feeding our future.

1340
01:42:48,520 --> 01:42:51,400
Speaker 1: That's right, So they are they're already getting snap benefits,

1341
01:42:52,760 --> 01:42:53,599
Speaker 1: right okay?

1342
01:42:53,640 --> 01:42:56,720
Speaker 25: And the second one, what do they need deal they

1343
01:42:56,760 --> 01:42:59,040
Speaker 25: care for when none of them have a job.

1344
01:43:01,240 --> 01:43:05,519
Speaker 1: Well, some of them have jobs. The bottom line, however,

1345
01:43:05,720 --> 01:43:08,960
Speaker 1: is that, assuming you need daycare, what do most people

1346
01:43:09,360 --> 01:43:13,639
Speaker 1: do in order to get daycare? They rely on friends, family,

1347
01:43:13,720 --> 01:43:17,719
Speaker 1: and neighbors. Overwhelmingly, that's what people use for daycare. For daycare,

1348
01:43:17,800 --> 01:43:21,960
Speaker 1: childcare because trust is a big deal. You want somebody

1349
01:43:22,160 --> 01:43:25,439
Speaker 1: to be trustworthy for you to leave your kid there

1350
01:43:25,439 --> 01:43:31,439
Speaker 1: for hours. George is in Penn Valley, California, Georgia, and

Speaker 1: Happy New Year to you two.

1355
01:43:39,600 --> 01:43:44,000

01:43:44,120 --> 01:43:48,080
Speaker 15: play do your Father Dear Son, I have to listen

1357
01:43:48,120 --> 01:43:52,880
Speaker 15: to it all the way through, and it's like watching

1358
01:43:52,960 --> 01:43:55,479
Speaker 15: my favorite movie and I don't like to miss any parts,

1359
01:43:55,520 --> 01:43:58,120
Speaker 15: even though I've heard it before. Thank you so much,

1360
01:43:58,560 --> 01:44:02,719
Speaker 15: great story, Thank you, thank you, And I just commend

1361
01:44:02,760 --> 01:44:04,840
Speaker 15: you on your patients. For some of these guys that

1362
01:44:04,920 --> 01:44:09,360
Speaker 15: call you that that Hispanic guy, I have an offer

1363
01:44:09,680 --> 01:44:12,559
Speaker 15: for this that Hispanic guy that called that says Trump

1364
01:44:12,680 --> 01:44:15,559
Speaker 15: just wants to give money back to the millionaires and

1365
01:44:15,560 --> 01:44:21,320
Speaker 15: billionaires through his tax credits. Is that why Trump wants

1366
01:44:21,320 --> 01:44:24,439
Speaker 15: to give Social Security, get rid of Social Security taxes,

1367
01:44:25,080 --> 01:44:27,840
Speaker 15: and why he wants to end tax on tips? And

1368
01:44:27,880 --> 01:44:30,840
Speaker 15: I'm willing if that guy can call you back, give

1369
01:44:30,880 --> 01:44:35,439
Speaker 15: you his address and number. I will pay for his

1370
01:44:35,800 --> 01:44:40,320
Speaker 15: one way ticket to the to the paradise of Cuba,

1371
01:44:40,720 --> 01:44:44,360
Speaker 15: where everybody's equal and every and life is great, healthcare

1372
01:44:44,439 --> 01:44:47,519
Speaker 15: is free, everything is free. I will pay for his

1373
01:44:47,600 --> 01:44:50,559
Speaker 15: trip to Cuba and he can go back there and

1374
01:44:50,720 --> 01:44:51,840
Speaker 15: enjoy his life there.

1375
01:44:52,040 --> 01:44:53,840
Speaker 1: Well, Jeorge, thank you very much. I doubt that he'll

1376
01:44:53,880 --> 01:44:55,320
Speaker 1: take you up on the offer. By the way, why

1377
01:44:55,320 --> 01:44:59,800
Speaker 1: would Trump support school choice the people that wo had

1378
01:44:59,800 --> 01:45:02,240
Speaker 1: been fit most by school choice, or poor people living

1379
01:45:02,280 --> 01:45:03,760
Speaker 1: in the inner city, Why would he care about that?

1380
01:45:05,000 --> 01:45:10,200
Speaker 1: And speaking of billionaires and millionaires, far more billionaire supported

1381
01:45:10,200 --> 01:45:12,840
Speaker 1: the candidacy of Kamala Harris and supported the candidacy of

1382
01:45:12,840 --> 01:45:17,479
Speaker 1: Donald Trump. I'm just saying, Diane is in Vancouver, Washington,

1383
01:45:17,479 --> 01:45:18,760
Speaker 1: dianea're and the Larry Old Show.

1384
01:45:20,640 --> 01:45:23,400
Speaker 26: Hi, Larry, thank you for taking my call, my pleasure.

1385
01:45:25,479 --> 01:45:29,320
Speaker 26: The reason I'm calling is I believe that the reason

1386
01:45:29,360 --> 01:45:33,519
Speaker 26: why Comula wanted to chose Tim Wallas to become a

1387
01:45:33,640 --> 01:45:37,519
Speaker 26: running her running mate instead of Sapiro, who was much

1388
01:45:37,560 --> 01:45:42,400
Speaker 26: more qualified than Tim Walls, is because of.

1389
01:45:42,280 --> 01:45:45,000
Speaker 20: The fact that she raised over a billion dollars.

1390
01:45:45,040 --> 01:45:48,240
Speaker 26: For her campaign in a short amount of time, which

1391
01:45:48,280 --> 01:45:52,560
Speaker 26: is unheard of. And I think that they use the

1392
01:45:52,840 --> 01:45:59,839
Speaker 26: Minnesota system that the Somalis used to raise that campaign.

1393
01:46:01,680 --> 01:46:04,720
Speaker 1: Well, Diane, I really don't think that that's how she

1394
01:46:04,880 --> 01:46:07,400
Speaker 1: raised all that money. Their whole bunch of very very

1395
01:46:07,439 --> 01:46:12,679
Speaker 1: wealthy people along the lines of the actor George Clooney

1396
01:46:13,880 --> 01:46:16,639
Speaker 1: passed the hat for her. They all thought that Donald

1397
01:46:16,680 --> 01:46:18,679
Speaker 1: Trump is a Nazi and a fascist and all that stuff.

1398
01:46:18,720 --> 01:46:21,559
Speaker 1: So there's no evidence that the money in her campaign,

1399
01:46:21,560 --> 01:46:25,080
Speaker 1: although I'm not saying it's impossible, came from these Somali

1400
01:46:25,560 --> 01:46:31,160
Speaker 1: childcare programs. I think she chose Tim Wallas because I

1401
01:46:31,200 --> 01:46:33,720
Speaker 1: think she felt threatened by Josh Shapiro. You're right, he

1402
01:46:33,760 --> 01:46:38,080
Speaker 1: would have been a far better candidate. I think perhaps

1403
01:46:38,160 --> 01:46:41,839
Speaker 1: also Josh Shapiro's being Jewish might have been a problem.

1404
01:46:42,760 --> 01:46:44,439
Speaker 1: You know, the Democratic Party has a real problem with

1405
01:46:44,479 --> 01:46:47,679
Speaker 1: anti Semitism, and Josh Shapiro is not only is Jewish,

1406
01:46:47,680 --> 01:46:50,759
Speaker 1: but he's a staunch pro Israel ally and that probably

1407
01:46:50,760 --> 01:46:56,000
Speaker 1: did not go well with their base. I suspect don

1408
01:46:56,160 --> 01:46:58,160
Speaker 1: is in Colorado Springs. Donn, you're in the Lario to.

1409
01:46:58,200 --> 01:47:03,320
Speaker 20: Show hi, Larry. I just want to say thank you

1410
01:47:03,439 --> 01:47:07,920
Speaker 20: so much for what you do. And I really, I

1411
01:47:08,000 --> 01:47:13,200
Speaker 20: really am so grateful that President Trump is exposing all

1412
01:47:13,240 --> 01:47:19,880
Speaker 20: of this fraud because in Colorado, specifically in Douglas County, Colorado,

1413
01:47:21,280 --> 01:47:24,880
Speaker 20: if you are a parent that has the child disabilities

1414
01:47:25,640 --> 01:47:28,080
Speaker 20: and if you need a little bit of assistance maybe

1415
01:47:28,080 --> 01:47:30,479
Speaker 20: for rent, they will take your child away from you

1416
01:47:30,560 --> 01:47:33,599
Speaker 20: and place them in foster care like they did mine.

1417
01:47:34,760 --> 01:47:39,479
Speaker 20: And then they denied us help when we needed just

1418
01:47:39,560 --> 01:47:42,919
Speaker 20: a little bit. And then they paid the foster family.

1419
01:47:44,680 --> 01:47:45,280
Speaker 15: This is just a.

1420
01:47:45,320 --> 01:47:47,400
Speaker 20: Small part of it, a small portion of it. For

1421
01:47:47,520 --> 01:47:50,760
Speaker 20: nine months, they paid them for my same child, my

1422
01:47:50,880 --> 01:47:54,320
Speaker 20: child with the same thing. He has downs in German.

1423
01:47:54,720 --> 01:47:57,400
Speaker 20: He does have a bunch of medical conditions which they

1424
01:47:57,400 --> 01:48:00,759
Speaker 20: accused me of making up. That they paid the Medicaid

1425
01:48:00,760 --> 01:48:05,040
Speaker 20: paid them almost sixty thousand, six zero thousand dollars for

1426
01:48:05,240 --> 01:48:08,839
Speaker 20: just nine months of my sen's care. Plus they received

1427
01:48:08,840 --> 01:48:12,920
Speaker 20: my friends social Security income. That's just a small portion

1428
01:48:13,040 --> 01:48:15,960
Speaker 20: of it. And that there wasn't any assistance for us.

1429
01:48:16,000 --> 01:48:21,520
Speaker 20: There wasn't just a few hundred dollars for us. And

1430
01:48:21,520 --> 01:48:23,680
Speaker 20: and that means do I feel entitled?

1431
01:48:24,400 --> 01:48:26,879
Speaker 15: But these.

1432
01:48:28,680 --> 01:48:31,960
Speaker 20: If these programs are available to people, they be available

1433
01:48:32,280 --> 01:48:34,439
Speaker 20: to the people who really need it instead of paying

1434
01:48:34,479 --> 01:48:39,559
Speaker 20: the people who who know how to manipulate the system.

1435
01:48:39,800 --> 01:48:44,679
Speaker 20: And you know, when we when we when we applied

1436
01:48:44,680 --> 01:48:46,720
Speaker 20: for any kind of assistance, we had to I had

1437
01:48:46,720 --> 01:48:49,519
Speaker 20: to jump through hoops to get it to get to

1438
01:48:49,680 --> 01:48:51,160
Speaker 20: two hundred dollars.

1439
01:48:51,479 --> 01:48:53,480
Speaker 10: And these people.

1440
01:48:53,240 --> 01:48:56,400
Speaker 20: Didn't have to supply any kind of verification whatsoever that

1441
01:48:56,479 --> 01:48:59,200
Speaker 20: might even needed, any kind of care outsoever.

1442
01:49:00,560 --> 01:49:06,600
Speaker 1: Well, it sounds like California. You're in California illegally. You

1443
01:49:06,600 --> 01:49:11,640
Speaker 1: can get healthcare, insurance, driver's license in state tuition that

1444
01:49:11,720 --> 01:49:14,840
Speaker 1: somebody born and raised in America outside of California cannot get.

1445
01:49:15,080 --> 01:49:17,439
Speaker 1: It's ridiculous. I'm Larry Older.

1446
01:49:20,800 --> 01:49:24,800
Speaker 26: Last she was just walking down the street singing.

1449
01:49:36,040 --> 01:49:41,440
Speaker 1: Let's talk a little bit about Trump arrangement syndrome. Here's

1450
01:49:42,520 --> 01:49:46,400
Speaker 1: Jasmine Crockett on the View calling Donald Trump the Maduro

1451
01:49:46,880 --> 01:49:48,519
Speaker 1: of the United States number thirty seven.

1452
01:49:49,040 --> 01:49:51,960
Speaker 27: And you know, I do want to just say this.

1453
01:49:52,720 --> 01:49:56,439
Speaker 27: Everyone wants to talk about how Maduro was illegitimate as

1454
01:49:56,439 --> 01:49:58,600
Speaker 27: we sit here on January sixth, I do want to

1455
01:49:58,600 --> 01:50:02,000
Speaker 27: be clear some else was trying to be a Maduro

1456
01:50:02,160 --> 01:50:05,240
Speaker 27: of the United States. Somebody else wanted to do the

1457
01:50:05,360 --> 01:50:09,320
Speaker 27: exact same thing. The difference is Maduro was successful. I

1458
01:50:09,360 --> 01:50:13,040
Speaker 27: also want to point out that we now in the

1459
01:50:13,040 --> 01:50:16,000
Speaker 27: state of Sexis and around this country are enduring this

1460
01:50:16,720 --> 01:50:22,840
Speaker 27: ridiculous redistricting scheme again because he doesn't really believe in

1461
01:50:22,880 --> 01:50:25,920
Speaker 27: free and fair elections. So again this idea that he

1462
01:50:26,080 --> 01:50:29,080
Speaker 27: is doing this for a great reason. He made it clear,

1463
01:50:29,120 --> 01:50:32,160
Speaker 27: because it's my understanding that when he went into that

1464
01:50:32,200 --> 01:50:34,960
Speaker 27: press conference he said at least twenty times.

1465
01:50:34,680 --> 01:50:37,120
Speaker 17: Oil oil oil oil, or sure did.

1466
01:50:37,439 --> 01:50:40,559
Speaker 27: Listen to him when he speaks, he's telegraphing, and so

1467
01:50:41,640 --> 01:50:44,120
Speaker 27: Jack Smith, I hate that he did not get his

1468
01:50:44,200 --> 01:50:46,479
Speaker 27: day in court. I hate that for the American people.

1469
01:50:47,640 --> 01:50:51,240
Speaker 1: I have a question in response to what Jack mcrockett said.

1470
01:50:51,920 --> 01:50:57,240
Speaker 1: Remember that video that service personnel put together advising service

1471
01:50:57,320 --> 01:51:00,400
Speaker 1: members that they had the right to refuse an unlawful order.

1472
01:51:02,439 --> 01:51:07,920
Speaker 1: How many of them refused to be dispatched to Venezuela.

1473
01:51:09,080 --> 01:51:13,920
Speaker 1: How many of the one hundred and fifty aircraft team said,

1474
01:51:13,960 --> 01:51:16,880
Speaker 1: I'm not going, it's unlawful. How many of the other

1475
01:51:17,080 --> 01:51:20,000
Speaker 1: first personnel that we're involved in this mission, very complicated,

1476
01:51:20,520 --> 01:51:24,439
Speaker 1: said it's unlawful. One of those in that video was

1477
01:51:24,760 --> 01:51:29,599
Speaker 1: Arizona Senator Mark Kelly. He was on the John Stewart

1478
01:51:29,680 --> 01:51:33,479
Speaker 1: Show and was asked whether he thinks the narco terrorist

1479
01:51:33,479 --> 01:51:40,520
Speaker 1: strikes against the boats are illegal he wouldn't answer Number thirty.

1480
01:51:40,240 --> 01:51:44,839
Speaker 11: Four, Are the boat strikes illegal?

1481
01:51:45,600 --> 01:51:48,240
Speaker 17: Well, so, I've been asking this question for a long time.

1482
01:51:48,280 --> 01:51:50,840
Speaker 17: I'm on the Armed Services and the Intelligence Committee. They

1483
01:51:50,880 --> 01:51:55,800
Speaker 17: have some complicated legal rationale forty pages of why these

1484
01:51:55,840 --> 01:51:58,800
Speaker 17: are legal. It's questionable at best. And by the way,

1485
01:51:58,840 --> 01:52:01,880
Speaker 17: that's my urse. It was fatanyl, then it was cocaine,

1486
01:52:02,000 --> 01:52:04,840
Speaker 17: then it was about regime change, then it was about oil.

1487
01:52:06,040 --> 01:52:07,360
Speaker 9: So but what I'm do?

1488
01:52:07,600 --> 01:52:09,920
Speaker 11: You see my point?

1489
01:52:09,080 --> 01:52:11,840
Speaker 9: Your point, I don't. But at our point.

1490
01:52:12,160 --> 01:52:14,599
Speaker 17: Our point is to members of the military who don't

1491
01:52:14,640 --> 01:52:19,720
Speaker 17: get reminded of this offense. When something is clearly unlawful,

1492
01:52:19,800 --> 01:52:23,679
Speaker 17: you have an obligation not to follow those orders. It's

1493
01:52:23,680 --> 01:52:26,040
Speaker 17: a pretty simple thing. And we've seen in our history

1494
01:52:26,840 --> 01:52:30,640
Speaker 17: multiple times when even under those circumstances, members of the

1495
01:52:30,640 --> 01:52:33,759
Speaker 17: military have done stuff that was clearly over the line.

1496
01:52:34,400 --> 01:52:42,120
Speaker 1: Didn't answer the question, did he are they unlawful? Well? Check? Please,

1497
01:52:44,280 --> 01:52:49,080
Speaker 1: let's do this again tomorrow. God bless, what can I

1498
01:52:49,160 --> 01:52:50,840
Speaker 1: say my mouth?

1499
01:52:53,840 --> 01:52:56,919
Speaker 9: But Mike has been drunk all across America.

1500
01:52:57,240 --> 01:52:57,720
Speaker 2: That's enough.

1501
01:52:57,800 --> 01:53:00,760
Speaker 9: Put down the mind. The elders show, Oh we're

1502
01:53:00,960 --> 01:53:04,240
Speaker 26: So happy, and the tower we're going to stace is
