Well, we've got a lot 15 00:01:15,480 --> 00:01:17,920 Speaker 2: of breaking news to share with you, and right out 16 00:01:17,959 --> 00:01:21,120 Speaker 2: of the gate coming out of Minnesota, where we understand 17 00:01:21,160 --> 00:01:24,520 Speaker 2: Attorney General Pam Bondi now announcing at least two people 18 00:01:24,520 --> 00:01:28,440 Speaker 2: have been arrested in connection with that crazy church attack 19 00:01:28,680 --> 00:01:33,039 Speaker 2: last Sunday, the violent mob led by none other than 20 00:01:33,319 --> 00:01:35,880 Speaker 2: XC and N host Don Lemon and others around thirty 21 00:01:35,920 --> 00:01:39,520 Speaker 2: people storming into that Baptist church. So the good news 22 00:01:39,600 --> 00:01:44,039 Speaker 2: is that looks like justice is being done there. And 23 00:01:44,080 --> 00:01:45,520 Speaker 2: so we'll get into more of that a little bit 24 00:01:45,600 --> 00:01:49,440 Speaker 2: later on. But closer to home, I saw a fascinating 25 00:01:49,480 --> 00:01:52,840 Speaker 2: headline in the New York Times. And very rarely do 26 00:01:52,920 --> 00:01:56,200 Speaker 2: they have anything nice to say about red states, but 27 00:01:56,480 --> 00:02:00,200 Speaker 2: this story in particular caught my attention. How mississipp be 28 00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:06,240 Speaker 2: transformed its schools from worst to best. Since twenty thirteen, 29 00:02:06,280 --> 00:02:10,400 Speaker 2: Mississippi has skyrocketed on national test while blue states are 30 00:02:10,440 --> 00:02:14,240 Speaker 2: falling behind. So what are they doing? And it's a 31 00:02:14,280 --> 00:02:17,560 Speaker 2: great question, and ladies and gentlemen, I believe our next 32 00:02:17,560 --> 00:02:19,440 Speaker 2: guest will be able to deliver the answer to that. 33 00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:23,160 Speaker 2: We're honored to have the governor the great state of Mississippi, 34 00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:26,320 Speaker 2: Governor Tate Reeves, joining us. Governor. What an honor. 35 00:02:27,360 --> 00:02:29,040 Speaker 3: Well, good morning, Todd, it's great to be on with 36 00:02:29,080 --> 00:02:29,519 Speaker 3: you today. 37 00:02:30,040 --> 00:02:34,079 Speaker 2: Well, first of all, congratulations are in order. I will 38 00:02:34,120 --> 00:02:36,760 Speaker 2: say this. This is education has been a big topic 39 00:02:36,840 --> 00:02:39,639 Speaker 2: on this program, and I really do believe, Governor that 40 00:02:39,680 --> 00:02:41,840 Speaker 2: if we're going to change the direction of our country, 41 00:02:42,160 --> 00:02:44,560 Speaker 2: we're going to have to fix what's broken in our schools, 42 00:02:44,560 --> 00:02:46,200 Speaker 2: and it looks like you guys have done it there 43 00:02:46,240 --> 00:02:47,000 Speaker 2: in Mississippi. 44 00:02:48,040 --> 00:02:50,720 Speaker 3: Well, we've had a lot of success, and I think 45 00:02:50,760 --> 00:02:55,639 Speaker 3: that we have a blueprint that other states are beginning 46 00:02:55,680 --> 00:03:00,200 Speaker 3: to copy, particularly other red states. And I'm hopeful at 47 00:03:01,040 --> 00:03:05,079 Speaker 3: as you see, even some what I would term national 48 00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:08,639 Speaker 3: democrats are beginning to take notice of what's happening here. 49 00:03:09,560 --> 00:03:16,160 Speaker 3: But the bottom line is conservative reform works, conservative governance works, 50 00:03:16,639 --> 00:03:20,080 Speaker 3: and it even works in public education. And that is 51 00:03:20,120 --> 00:03:23,120 Speaker 3: the lesson to be learned from what the New York 52 00:03:23,200 --> 00:03:24,760 Speaker 3: Times called the Mississippi Miracle. 53 00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:28,320 Speaker 2: Were you surprised that that? Usually when the New York 54 00:03:28,360 --> 00:03:31,120 Speaker 2: Times calls it's not good news, Governor. I don't know 55 00:03:31,160 --> 00:03:34,240 Speaker 2: if you know that, but I thought they did a 56 00:03:34,240 --> 00:03:37,760 Speaker 2: really nice job writing about what you guys are up to. 57 00:03:38,760 --> 00:03:41,720 Speaker 3: No, they did. I mean, you know, the New York 58 00:03:41,800 --> 00:03:46,120 Speaker 3: Times actually coined the phrase the Mississippi Miracle, and I 59 00:03:46,200 --> 00:03:50,600 Speaker 3: use that phrase regularly because it gets people's attention, particularly nationally. 60 00:03:51,160 --> 00:03:54,360 Speaker 3: But what you and I know is it really wasn't 61 00:03:54,400 --> 00:03:58,080 Speaker 3: a miracle at all. It was the result of good, strong, 62 00:03:58,200 --> 00:04:02,320 Speaker 3: conservative public policy being enacted by our state legislature back 63 00:04:02,640 --> 00:04:05,520 Speaker 3: in twenty twelve and twenty thirteen. I happened to be 64 00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:07,720 Speaker 3: President of the Senate and Lieutenant governor at the time. 65 00:04:08,280 --> 00:04:10,680 Speaker 3: But it was a good conservative policy that we enacted, 66 00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:15,600 Speaker 3: and then an implementation phase where our Department of Education, 67 00:04:15,800 --> 00:04:19,480 Speaker 3: led by then Superintendent doctor Kerry Wright, did a fantastic 68 00:04:19,560 --> 00:04:24,800 Speaker 3: job implementing those policies. And the beautiful thing about the 69 00:04:24,800 --> 00:04:29,520 Speaker 3: outcome is these reforms aren't just helping some of our 70 00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:32,920 Speaker 3: kids in some of our school districts. They're helping all 71 00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:35,920 Speaker 3: of our kids in all of our school districts. And 72 00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:40,080 Speaker 3: so when you look at as an example, when you 73 00:04:40,080 --> 00:04:44,320 Speaker 3: look at the performance of our African American fourth graders 74 00:04:44,880 --> 00:04:48,599 Speaker 3: back ten years ago, when they're reading results in the 75 00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:52,160 Speaker 3: fourth grade were compared to their to other black children 76 00:04:52,240 --> 00:04:57,320 Speaker 3: around the country, Mississippis scored forty fifth best. Well, last year, 77 00:04:57,880 --> 00:05:03,200 Speaker 3: our black fourth graders scored third best in America. Hispanic 78 00:05:03,240 --> 00:05:06,599 Speaker 3: students number one in the nation in Mississippi when compared 79 00:05:06,640 --> 00:05:09,560 Speaker 3: to their peers on fourth grade reading, number two in 80 00:05:09,640 --> 00:05:14,920 Speaker 3: the nation on fourth grade math, Economically disadvantaged students number 81 00:05:14,960 --> 00:05:18,839 Speaker 3: one in America. The best place to get an education 82 00:05:19,040 --> 00:05:21,720 Speaker 3: in all of America for a kid that comes from 83 00:05:21,760 --> 00:05:25,120 Speaker 3: an economically disadvantaged home is right here in Mississippi. And 84 00:05:25,200 --> 00:05:27,599 Speaker 3: I think it's a great credit to good policy, but 85 00:05:27,680 --> 00:05:31,720 Speaker 3: also a lot of teachers and just really working very 86 00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:32,200 Speaker 3: very hard. 87 00:05:32,640 --> 00:05:35,320 Speaker 2: I love this line from from the New York Times 88 00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:38,200 Speaker 2: piece Mississippi has emerged as one of the best places 89 00:05:38,200 --> 00:05:40,800 Speaker 2: in the country for a poor child to get an education. 90 00:05:41,360 --> 00:05:44,919 Speaker 2: You know, there's there's something there. You know, when a 91 00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:47,800 Speaker 2: kid is able to read and you know, to get 92 00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:51,000 Speaker 2: an education, then they have the tools they need, governor, 93 00:05:51,400 --> 00:05:53,760 Speaker 2: to succeed in life, to claim their American dream. 94 00:05:54,440 --> 00:05:57,160 Speaker 3: Well, that's exactly right, and and really that's what policy 95 00:05:57,200 --> 00:06:01,280 Speaker 3: makers should be focused stone, and that should be the 96 00:06:01,320 --> 00:06:04,400 Speaker 3: goal of policymakers in every state, is how do we 97 00:06:04,520 --> 00:06:09,600 Speaker 3: give individuals upward mobility? How do we give them opportunity 98 00:06:09,680 --> 00:06:15,120 Speaker 3: for success? Because the best way for someone who liked 99 00:06:15,560 --> 00:06:19,320 Speaker 3: my own dad grew up without a whole lot, but 100 00:06:19,520 --> 00:06:22,080 Speaker 3: they were raised in a family that loved them and 101 00:06:22,680 --> 00:06:25,599 Speaker 3: ensured that they went to school and that they got 102 00:06:25,600 --> 00:06:28,560 Speaker 3: an education. That's the best way out of poverty in 103 00:06:28,960 --> 00:06:34,200 Speaker 3: all of America. And we say this a lot, and 104 00:06:34,240 --> 00:06:37,599 Speaker 3: I absolutely many mean that we still have challenges in 105 00:06:37,640 --> 00:06:41,880 Speaker 3: our state but there are not many challenges in our 106 00:06:41,960 --> 00:06:45,360 Speaker 3: state or any other state that everyone having number one, 107 00:06:45,560 --> 00:06:48,520 Speaker 3: the skills that they need and number two, the opportunity 108 00:06:48,960 --> 00:06:51,279 Speaker 3: to get a job that pays sixty or seventy eighty 109 00:06:51,320 --> 00:06:54,240 Speaker 3: thousand dollars a year. If everybody in our state has 110 00:06:54,279 --> 00:06:57,840 Speaker 3: those two things, the most most likely all the other 111 00:06:58,000 --> 00:07:01,839 Speaker 3: challenges tend to take care of themselves in those individuals' lives. 112 00:07:01,880 --> 00:07:06,200 Speaker 3: And so again, I think it's I don't think government 113 00:07:06,240 --> 00:07:09,560 Speaker 3: does very many things very well we uh, and I 114 00:07:09,560 --> 00:07:11,280 Speaker 3: don't I think government does a lot of things they 115 00:07:11,280 --> 00:07:15,080 Speaker 3: ought not be doing. But clearly, educating our children and 116 00:07:15,120 --> 00:07:17,920 Speaker 3: giving them an opportunity for success and make for a 117 00:07:17,960 --> 00:07:19,840 Speaker 3: better life and so that they can take care of 118 00:07:19,840 --> 00:07:22,360 Speaker 3: themselves and take care of their families in the future, 119 00:07:22,920 --> 00:07:25,080 Speaker 3: that's that's a huge goal. And we're seeing and happen 120 00:07:25,200 --> 00:07:26,200 Speaker 3: right here in Mississippi. 121 00:07:26,280 --> 00:07:27,960 Speaker 2: You know, when I was, when I was a little fellow, 122 00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:31,280 Speaker 2: my parents moved us across the state line from from Memphis, 123 00:07:31,320 --> 00:07:34,680 Speaker 2: and and I was educated in DeSoto County. I'm a 124 00:07:34,720 --> 00:07:39,160 Speaker 2: proud alumni of Hope P. Sullivan Elementary School, And I 125 00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:43,040 Speaker 2: remember back in the day, Uh, those teachers were just 126 00:07:43,360 --> 00:07:46,800 Speaker 2: so committed to making sure that all of us knew 127 00:07:46,800 --> 00:07:49,960 Speaker 2: our ABC's, you know, we knew how to to add 128 00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:55,880 Speaker 2: and subtract and multiply. And it's exciting to see schools 129 00:07:55,960 --> 00:07:58,680 Speaker 2: across the state, you know, embracing a lot of things 130 00:07:58,680 --> 00:08:01,360 Speaker 2: that maybe were just you know, shoved aside in years 131 00:08:01,400 --> 00:08:04,400 Speaker 2: past for other new techniques. So really, what is old 132 00:08:04,560 --> 00:08:06,160 Speaker 2: actually still works just fine. 133 00:08:07,120 --> 00:08:08,240 Speaker 4: Well, that's exactly right. 134 00:08:08,480 --> 00:08:12,640 Speaker 3: And where you were in DeSoto County Schools where I 135 00:08:12,720 --> 00:08:15,640 Speaker 3: went to school, in the Ranking County Public Schools system, 136 00:08:15,640 --> 00:08:19,400 Speaker 3: which is a suburb of our capital city, two of 137 00:08:19,440 --> 00:08:24,480 Speaker 3: the best public school systems in all of Mississippi. Because 138 00:08:24,520 --> 00:08:28,720 Speaker 3: I grew up there, I never really believed what everyone 139 00:08:28,840 --> 00:08:31,840 Speaker 3: said is that that Mississippi had the worst educational system 140 00:08:32,240 --> 00:08:34,440 Speaker 3: in America. And they said that for years and years. 141 00:08:34,480 --> 00:08:36,720 Speaker 3: I never believed it because that was not my experience. 142 00:08:37,160 --> 00:08:41,720 Speaker 3: But they certainly had data to point to where Mississippi 143 00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:44,640 Speaker 3: was ranked forty eighth or forty ninth or fiftieth in 144 00:08:44,720 --> 00:08:47,679 Speaker 3: a lot of different categories, and that's just simply not 145 00:08:47,679 --> 00:08:52,360 Speaker 3: true anymore. Mississippi is a top fifteen state overall for education, 146 00:08:52,520 --> 00:08:56,560 Speaker 3: top ten and fourth grade reading in math, high school graduation, 147 00:08:56,679 --> 00:09:02,280 Speaker 3: rates up has risen by almost seventeen percentage points to 148 00:09:02,720 --> 00:09:05,319 Speaker 3: eighty nine point nine percent of our kids graduated high 149 00:09:05,320 --> 00:09:08,559 Speaker 3: school last year. And by the way, Todd, what we 150 00:09:08,640 --> 00:09:11,400 Speaker 3: know is when you have an educated populace and an 151 00:09:11,520 --> 00:09:17,720 Speaker 3: educated workforce, economic development comes and more jobs come. And 152 00:09:17,960 --> 00:09:22,480 Speaker 3: because of all these improvements in our educational results, Mississippi 153 00:09:22,480 --> 00:09:26,560 Speaker 3: had the second fastest growing economy in the entire United 154 00:09:26,600 --> 00:09:30,280 Speaker 3: States both in twenty twenty four and in our fiscal 155 00:09:30,360 --> 00:09:34,600 Speaker 3: year which ended June thirtieth of twenty twenty five. So 156 00:09:35,559 --> 00:09:37,400 Speaker 3: a lot of good things happening here and a lot 157 00:09:37,440 --> 00:09:40,560 Speaker 3: of companies from all over the world looking to locate here. 158 00:09:40,679 --> 00:09:42,959 Speaker 2: Governor real quick here. And there are a couple of 159 00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:45,320 Speaker 2: other issues on want to touch on. But I'm wondering 160 00:09:45,360 --> 00:09:48,400 Speaker 2: if other states are reaching out our other cities. I know, Memphis, 161 00:09:48,679 --> 00:09:52,920 Speaker 2: which shares a border with Mississippi. The kids over seventy 162 00:09:52,960 --> 00:09:55,280 Speaker 2: percent of the kids are not at grade reading level. 163 00:09:55,320 --> 00:09:58,480 Speaker 2: I mean, the public schools are a disaster. Are you 164 00:09:58,520 --> 00:10:01,760 Speaker 2: guys having other districts reaching out and asking for you know, 165 00:10:01,800 --> 00:10:03,040 Speaker 2: for guidance, for some help. 166 00:10:04,080 --> 00:10:09,160 Speaker 3: Yes, we yes, we are. It's it's actually been very refreshing. 167 00:10:10,120 --> 00:10:13,760 Speaker 3: We joke amongst Republican governors that if one of us 168 00:10:13,840 --> 00:10:17,840 Speaker 3: has a good idea, we sure don't mind stealing other 169 00:10:18,679 --> 00:10:21,559 Speaker 3: Republican governors good ideas. And and this is no. 170 00:10:21,559 --> 00:10:22,200 Speaker 4: Exception to that. 171 00:10:22,240 --> 00:10:24,120 Speaker 3: I've I've had the opportunity to do that with some 172 00:10:24,200 --> 00:10:29,440 Speaker 3: of my friends in Tennessee and Arkansas and Governor Landry 173 00:10:29,440 --> 00:10:32,320 Speaker 3: and Louisiana, and they're doing the same thing. They're they're 174 00:10:32,360 --> 00:10:36,200 Speaker 3: they're looking at what what laws do we enact in 175 00:10:36,240 --> 00:10:38,320 Speaker 3: twenty twelve and twenty thirteen that have made such a 176 00:10:38,360 --> 00:10:42,960 Speaker 3: huge difference, and they're now enacting them in their state 177 00:10:43,000 --> 00:10:47,400 Speaker 3: as well. And so I think that's a very positive outcome. 178 00:10:47,960 --> 00:10:51,920 Speaker 3: And and now because of the huge success that we've had, 179 00:10:51,960 --> 00:10:56,320 Speaker 3: because there's been so much national publicity around it, a 180 00:10:56,360 --> 00:11:00,120 Speaker 3: lot of states are are asking either our legislative leader 181 00:11:00,280 --> 00:11:07,320 Speaker 3: to testify before their legislative bodies or calling our calling 182 00:11:07,360 --> 00:11:12,680 Speaker 3: our educational leadership. And it's just it's really an outstanding thing. 183 00:11:13,120 --> 00:11:17,960 Speaker 3: But in America we have not done well compared to 184 00:11:18,080 --> 00:11:21,120 Speaker 3: our peers around the globe for the last twenty years 185 00:11:21,200 --> 00:11:23,520 Speaker 3: in education. There's a lot of reasons why. The teachers' 186 00:11:23,559 --> 00:11:28,360 Speaker 3: unions and all of these entities that are so focused 187 00:11:28,400 --> 00:11:30,640 Speaker 3: on themselves and not focused on doing what's best for 188 00:11:30,760 --> 00:11:33,599 Speaker 3: kids is a big reason why. But we've got to 189 00:11:33,640 --> 00:11:36,200 Speaker 3: get that turned around in our country if we're going 190 00:11:36,240 --> 00:11:40,040 Speaker 3: to continue to be a global superpower, and certainly I 191 00:11:40,080 --> 00:11:43,520 Speaker 3: think President Trump understands that and Secretary of McMahon or 192 00:11:43,600 --> 00:11:48,160 Speaker 3: are working extremely hard to get us as a country 193 00:11:48,200 --> 00:11:53,360 Speaker 3: turned around and see our results nationally mirror the tremendous 194 00:11:53,400 --> 00:11:54,840 Speaker 3: results that we've seen in Mississippi. 195 00:11:55,000 --> 00:11:58,040 Speaker 2: Governor Tate Reeves of the Great State of Mississippi, the 196 00:11:58,040 --> 00:12:01,600 Speaker 2: Magnolia State joining us on our peace at Mobile Newsmaker line. 197 00:12:01,760 --> 00:12:06,240 Speaker 2: A couple of other issues. Real quick, Governor, let's talk 198 00:12:06,280 --> 00:12:08,960 Speaker 2: about what's happening in Minnesota. I know that you guys 199 00:12:09,000 --> 00:12:12,000 Speaker 2: have really been hit hard by illegal immigration as well. 200 00:12:12,200 --> 00:12:14,560 Speaker 2: But the idea now that you've got people marching into 201 00:12:14,640 --> 00:12:18,000 Speaker 2: churches and thinking they can disrupt church services on a 202 00:12:18,040 --> 00:12:19,079 Speaker 2: Sunday morning. 203 00:12:18,960 --> 00:12:26,640 Speaker 3: Sir, absolutely appalling. Is mind boggling to me. To see 204 00:12:27,120 --> 00:12:30,800 Speaker 3: what's happening in Minneapolis. I think it's a direct reflection 205 00:12:30,960 --> 00:12:35,720 Speaker 3: on very poor leadership by the mayor and the governor there. 206 00:12:36,200 --> 00:12:39,719 Speaker 3: I appreciate that the Attorney General Pam Bondi I think 207 00:12:39,720 --> 00:12:41,960 Speaker 3: she announced earlier today that there have been a couple 208 00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:48,000 Speaker 3: of arrest made in that particular incidents. And I appreciate 209 00:12:48,080 --> 00:12:55,199 Speaker 3: that it should be universally agreed all across America that 210 00:12:55,520 --> 00:12:57,640 Speaker 3: people should be able to get up and go to 211 00:12:57,679 --> 00:13:01,960 Speaker 3: the church of their choice on Sunday morning and feel 212 00:13:02,679 --> 00:13:05,760 Speaker 3: and know that they can feel safe there, and for 213 00:13:06,160 --> 00:13:10,600 Speaker 3: things like this to happen in Minneapolis, it's it's just horrible. 214 00:13:11,160 --> 00:13:13,840 Speaker 2: One final note, Governor, we sure to appreciate your time. 215 00:13:14,320 --> 00:13:18,360 Speaker 2: About one hundred million Americans are under a winter storm watch, 216 00:13:18,679 --> 00:13:22,280 Speaker 2: including those of us in the Memphis area and across 217 00:13:22,400 --> 00:13:26,160 Speaker 2: much of North Mississippi. And I'm telling you we're not 218 00:13:26,280 --> 00:13:28,520 Speaker 2: used to this. People are putting out dry rob hoping 219 00:13:28,559 --> 00:13:33,040 Speaker 2: that's gonna stave off the ice. How are you guys 220 00:13:33,240 --> 00:13:35,679 Speaker 2: preparing for the storm? And what advice do you give 221 00:13:35,760 --> 00:13:39,319 Speaker 2: all of our listeners in the in the state, Well. 222 00:13:39,040 --> 00:13:42,640 Speaker 3: Pay very close attention to the weather. This weekend. We 223 00:13:42,679 --> 00:13:47,040 Speaker 3: are doing meetings and calls with all of our state 224 00:13:47,120 --> 00:13:50,160 Speaker 3: leadership every four hours. Or we did one at nine 225 00:13:50,200 --> 00:13:52,080 Speaker 3: am this morning, The next one will be at one 226 00:13:52,120 --> 00:13:57,120 Speaker 3: pm this afternoon. Then we'll do another one four hours later. Unfortunately, 227 00:13:57,160 --> 00:13:59,800 Speaker 3: we have, unfortunately or fortunately, we have a lot of 228 00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:03,000 Speaker 3: experience with natural disasters here in our state. We've got 229 00:14:03,040 --> 00:14:07,240 Speaker 3: an incredible team. But the most important message that I 230 00:14:07,240 --> 00:14:12,440 Speaker 3: can tell your listeners, particularly in north Mississippi and in Memphis, 231 00:14:12,440 --> 00:14:14,440 Speaker 3: but really throughout the region, because this is going to 232 00:14:14,480 --> 00:14:17,319 Speaker 3: be a huge storm. We don't know exactly where it's 233 00:14:17,320 --> 00:14:19,240 Speaker 3: going to land, we don't know exactly how much ice 234 00:14:19,280 --> 00:14:22,640 Speaker 3: and snow we're going to get, but it doesn't take 235 00:14:22,720 --> 00:14:27,200 Speaker 3: a lot of ice accumulation on power lines that are 236 00:14:27,320 --> 00:14:31,560 Speaker 3: above the ground for power to be for power to 237 00:14:31,640 --> 00:14:35,640 Speaker 3: go out, and so everyone needs to be prepared for 238 00:14:35,680 --> 00:14:40,440 Speaker 3: the potential of losing power, particularly right now north of 239 00:14:40,480 --> 00:14:45,400 Speaker 3: Highway eighty two in Mississippi, up through where you are 240 00:14:45,440 --> 00:14:49,240 Speaker 3: in Memphis, and even further north, but be prepared for 241 00:14:49,560 --> 00:14:52,400 Speaker 3: the potential for power to go out for a long 242 00:14:52,440 --> 00:14:55,000 Speaker 3: period of time. We're working with the utility companies. They 243 00:14:55,040 --> 00:14:58,000 Speaker 3: are preparing. We will get that power back on as 244 00:14:58,040 --> 00:15:01,560 Speaker 3: soon as possible. But there is so certainly realistic chance 245 00:15:01,920 --> 00:15:03,520 Speaker 3: that we're going to have a lot of our citizens 246 00:15:03,600 --> 00:15:05,360 Speaker 3: lose power over the weekend. 247 00:15:05,440 --> 00:15:07,880 Speaker 2: Well it's uh, it's gonna be some difficult days, but 248 00:15:08,160 --> 00:15:10,440 Speaker 2: no doubt you guys are on top of the situation 249 00:15:10,640 --> 00:15:13,920 Speaker 2: there and a governor. Again, we so appreciate you. By 250 00:15:13,920 --> 00:15:16,320 Speaker 2: the way, next time you're up in these parts, you 251 00:15:16,400 --> 00:15:18,760 Speaker 2: got to stop in studio. We'd love to have you 252 00:15:19,240 --> 00:15:20,880 Speaker 2: live in the studio during the show. 253 00:15:21,440 --> 00:15:23,160 Speaker 4: I would love to do that, all right. 254 00:15:23,200 --> 00:15:25,080 Speaker 2: And we're just a couple of blocks away from a 255 00:15:25,400 --> 00:15:31,520 Speaker 2: central barbecue joint, so if that helps, is all right? Governor, 256 00:15:31,720 --> 00:15:34,680 Speaker 2: congratulations again on the great Mississippi miracle. 257 00:15:35,240 --> 00:15:37,440 Speaker 3: Thank you, Serry Todd.

I said, I hyped 338 00:20:48,280 --> 00:20:50,480 Speaker 5: it up. I was gonna do it. I got home 339 00:20:50,520 --> 00:20:51,520 Speaker 5: and I fell right asleep. 340 00:20:51,560 --> 00:20:53,360 Speaker 2: You chicken out, Oh you fell asleep. 341 00:20:53,400 --> 00:20:55,399 Speaker 5: I didn't check it out. I fell asleep. But I 342 00:20:55,440 --> 00:20:57,720 Speaker 5: heard that all the stores are empty anyway. 343 00:20:57,760 --> 00:21:02,600 Speaker 2: So it's insane. Yeah, crazy, and people are really Look, 344 00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:05,119 Speaker 2: it's going to be bad here. They're they're saying we 345 00:21:05,119 --> 00:21:08,160 Speaker 2: can get as much as two inches of ice, which 346 00:21:08,359 --> 00:21:13,720 Speaker 2: would be catastrophic, you folks up north in the Northern States. No, 347 00:21:14,000 --> 00:21:20,640 Speaker 2: that amount of ice would literally would just literally devastate buildings. 348 00:21:20,640 --> 00:21:22,840 Speaker 2: I mean we're talking about roof collapses and things of 349 00:21:22,880 --> 00:21:25,879 Speaker 2: that nature, and Dylan. Sorry, I was slightly distracted. My 350 00:21:27,200 --> 00:21:29,800 Speaker 2: all of my computers went down in the in the 351 00:21:29,840 --> 00:21:33,840 Speaker 2: studio starting well, it's starting, for the love of God. Well, 352 00:21:33,840 --> 00:21:36,000 Speaker 2: this morning there was a dense fog warning and I 353 00:21:36,000 --> 00:21:38,240 Speaker 2: thought it was just for the Democrats, but apparently there 354 00:21:38,280 --> 00:21:40,040 Speaker 2: was really fog out on the roadways. 355 00:21:40,080 --> 00:21:40,840 Speaker 6: Everyone suffered. 356 00:21:40,880 --> 00:21:44,200 Speaker 2: Everybody suffered. Yes, it's true. So anyway, you be careful 357 00:21:44,200 --> 00:21:46,280 Speaker 2: out there. One hundred million people all the way from 358 00:21:46,320 --> 00:21:49,800 Speaker 2: Texas to Maine. You guys are going to get pounded. 359 00:21:49,920 --> 00:21:53,480 Speaker 2: So we certainly were certainly thinking about you. And we're 360 00:21:53,520 --> 00:21:57,480 Speaker 2: literally all in it together except for you folks in o'kalla, Florida. 361 00:21:58,000 --> 00:22:01,840 Speaker 2: Maybe we should have moved to Okalla, Okay. By the way, 362 00:22:02,359 --> 00:22:04,600 Speaker 2: before we get into Jim Jordan, I want to share 363 00:22:04,640 --> 00:22:08,359 Speaker 2: this story with you because there is so much miss 364 00:22:08,400 --> 00:22:12,440 Speaker 2: It's really not even misinformation, it's disinformation about federal agents 365 00:22:13,000 --> 00:22:18,520 Speaker 2: and they're the allegations are the federal agents are arresting children. 366 00:22:18,920 --> 00:22:21,680 Speaker 2: They're dragging little boys and girls out of their homes. 367 00:22:22,200 --> 00:22:24,880 Speaker 2: There was one that was shared today by Ilhan Omar, 368 00:22:26,760 --> 00:22:30,280 Speaker 2: and she alleged that ICE had detained a five year 369 00:22:30,320 --> 00:22:33,600 Speaker 2: old child and she said that the ICE agents had 370 00:22:33,600 --> 00:22:37,040 Speaker 2: targeted the child because they believe the child was one 371 00:22:37,080 --> 00:22:42,919 Speaker 2: of the worst of the worst. That's horrible, But it 372 00:22:42,960 --> 00:22:45,280 Speaker 2: turns out not to be true, none of it at all. 373 00:22:45,640 --> 00:22:47,879 Speaker 2: As a matter of fact, there's video of it, or 374 00:22:47,920 --> 00:22:51,520 Speaker 2: there's photos, and people like, oh, that's horrible. These those shameful, 375 00:22:51,560 --> 00:22:55,919 Speaker 2: those Nazis. They're Nazis. No, it turned out not to 376 00:22:55,960 --> 00:23:01,760 Speaker 2: be true. So Homeland Security says that child had been abandoned. 377 00:23:02,040 --> 00:23:06,359 Speaker 2: So agents have pulled over a car, all right, the driver. 378 00:23:06,520 --> 00:23:08,840 Speaker 2: As soon as the driver put the car in park, 379 00:23:09,200 --> 00:23:12,480 Speaker 2: driver jumps out of the car and runs away, leaving 380 00:23:12,520 --> 00:23:18,560 Speaker 2: the child behind. It turned out the driver was an 381 00:23:18,600 --> 00:23:21,520 Speaker 2: illegal alien, and so the agents were able to finally 382 00:23:21,640 --> 00:23:25,040 Speaker 2: arrest the guy who was driving the car. But the 383 00:23:25,119 --> 00:23:28,320 Speaker 2: reason why there was an there was an ICE agent 384 00:23:28,359 --> 00:23:30,480 Speaker 2: with the child is because the child, the child was 385 00:23:30,520 --> 00:23:35,359 Speaker 2: being protected. This child wasn't being arrested. Child wasn't being apprehended. 386 00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:39,240 Speaker 2: And it's really sad to say, because you simply just 387 00:23:39,480 --> 00:23:43,000 Speaker 2: you cannot believe what you read or hear or see 388 00:23:43,119 --> 00:23:47,959 Speaker 2: on the network, television, your top of the radio news, 389 00:23:48,080 --> 00:23:51,479 Speaker 2: your digital news sources. You can't believe it. You always 390 00:23:51,520 --> 00:23:56,000 Speaker 2: have to you again, verify, find a second source or 391 00:23:56,119 --> 00:23:58,760 Speaker 2: third source to find out what's really going on here. 392 00:23:59,040 --> 00:24:01,199 Speaker 2: And so we're doing that over on our website, on 393 00:24:01,280 --> 00:24:03,679 Speaker 2: social media. We're doing our best to make sure that 394 00:24:03,720 --> 00:24:08,520 Speaker 2: we're correcting all of this these lies and they're intentionally 395 00:24:08,600 --> 00:24:12,159 Speaker 2: lying about it. You know, when you look at the 396 00:24:12,160 --> 00:24:15,679 Speaker 2: Bill of Rights and our founding fathers really felt like 397 00:24:15,720 --> 00:24:18,600 Speaker 2: it was important to have a free press in this nation, 398 00:24:19,359 --> 00:24:23,639 Speaker 2: a news news that was not influenced by the heavy 399 00:24:23,680 --> 00:24:29,600 Speaker 2: hand of government. And yes, we do have freedom of 400 00:24:29,640 --> 00:24:32,240 Speaker 2: press in this country, but that does not mean you 401 00:24:32,320 --> 00:24:35,320 Speaker 2: have the freedom to make up the facts. And that's 402 00:24:35,359 --> 00:24:39,720 Speaker 2: where we really have to start cracking down now. People say, 403 00:24:39,880 --> 00:24:49,439 Speaker 2: what about you, Stearns, you're a conservative, what about your news? Well, yeah, 404 00:24:49,560 --> 00:24:52,879 Speaker 2: I am a conservative and I was a journalist for 405 00:24:52,920 --> 00:24:57,080 Speaker 2: many many years. To some extent, I still consider myself 406 00:24:57,119 --> 00:25:00,520 Speaker 2: to be one. But we're very old open with what 407 00:25:00,560 --> 00:25:03,800 Speaker 2: we do here on this program. But every single story 408 00:25:03,840 --> 00:25:06,840 Speaker 2: I bring you is rooted in facts. It's not like 409 00:25:06,880 --> 00:25:09,959 Speaker 2: we're making things up here. We share the news with 410 00:25:10,040 --> 00:25:12,760 Speaker 2: you and then I provide you my commentary and I 411 00:25:12,880 --> 00:25:19,360 Speaker 2: provide you the sources for that information. Not everybody does that, 412 00:25:19,560 --> 00:25:21,439 Speaker 2: but that is a very important thing for us. And 413 00:25:21,440 --> 00:25:25,040 Speaker 2: here's the reason why it's important, because many of you 414 00:25:25,080 --> 00:25:27,760 Speaker 2: don't have time to fact check what we do here, 415 00:25:28,160 --> 00:25:29,679 Speaker 2: and I want to make sure we get it right 416 00:25:29,720 --> 00:25:31,680 Speaker 2: the first time. Does that mean we're going to make mistakes? 417 00:25:32,480 --> 00:25:35,320 Speaker 2: We are going to make mistakes. We make one about 418 00:25:35,560 --> 00:25:39,680 Speaker 2: one every couple of years. I think was it twenty 419 00:25:39,720 --> 00:25:41,919 Speaker 2: twenty one the last time I made a mistake? Dylan 420 00:25:42,720 --> 00:25:44,640 Speaker 2: can be further further? Can you check me that twenty 421 00:25:45,160 --> 00:25:47,639 Speaker 2: It was twenty twenty? All right, very good? Thank you 422 00:25:48,160 --> 00:25:50,440 Speaker 2: see it in a while. Dylan keeps us honest here 423 00:25:50,520 --> 00:25:53,399 Speaker 2: we have we have real time fact checking right here. 424 00:25:56,720 --> 00:25:58,720 Speaker 2: We might need a fact checker or the fact checker. 425 00:26:00,320 --> 00:26:03,040 Speaker 2: But all that to say, all that to say is 426 00:26:03,080 --> 00:26:05,880 Speaker 2: that I want to make sure we get things right. 427 00:26:06,600 --> 00:26:09,320 Speaker 2: We have a lot of pastors. Whenever I write a column, 428 00:26:10,480 --> 00:26:13,000 Speaker 2: it's normally shared by a lot of pastors, and I 429 00:26:13,040 --> 00:26:15,080 Speaker 2: want to make sure these pastors, if they're reading that 430 00:26:15,160 --> 00:26:18,880 Speaker 2: from the pulpit, if they are sharing it with their church, 431 00:26:18,960 --> 00:26:21,640 Speaker 2: I want to make sure that they're getting good, accurate information. 432 00:26:22,720 --> 00:26:25,040 Speaker 2: I'm just telling you not everybody wants to go to 433 00:26:25,080 --> 00:26:28,800 Speaker 2: that level to make sure what they're sharing. Is is accurate? 434 00:26:29,280 --> 00:26:31,159 Speaker 2: All right? I want to go back, and this is 435 00:26:31,280 --> 00:26:34,520 Speaker 2: a little lengthy, we're going to My intent is to 436 00:26:34,560 --> 00:26:38,359 Speaker 2: play the entire thing. This is Jim Jordan, and today 437 00:26:38,400 --> 00:26:41,119 Speaker 2: what's happening up on Capitol Hill is a big deal 438 00:26:41,600 --> 00:26:44,480 Speaker 2: because we've got to hold these people accountable for what 439 00:26:44,480 --> 00:26:47,000 Speaker 2: they did to Donald Trump. Let's take a listen, you 440 00:26:47,200 --> 00:26:48,359 Speaker 2: and miss Trimna, you go back to you. 441 00:26:48,720 --> 00:26:52,000 Speaker 7: Emly yields back. Mister Smith.

On page three ten, they said 518 00:30:29,200 --> 00:30:31,760 Speaker 8: Jack Smith had wondered whether some of Hutchinson's claims might 519 00:30:31,800 --> 00:30:35,520 Speaker 8: be relied upon a trial. Still, at one point, Smith 520 00:30:35,560 --> 00:30:37,720 Speaker 8: told the elections teams he wasn't ready to give up 521 00:30:37,760 --> 00:30:43,720 Speaker 8: on Hutchinson's account. Ultimately, however, Trump administration officials uniformly fiercely 522 00:30:43,760 --> 00:30:47,040 Speaker 8: disputed her accounts under oath. Prosecutors on your team told 523 00:30:47,080 --> 00:30:49,720 Speaker 8: Smith they wouldn't want to use Hutchinson as a witness 524 00:30:49,720 --> 00:30:53,440 Speaker 8: in court, and Smith agreed. Are Carol Lenning and Aaron 525 00:30:53,520 --> 00:30:55,120 Speaker 8: Davis who wrote this or they lyon. 526 00:30:59,280 --> 00:31:02,640 Speaker 9: My recollect is that I certainly had not made any 527 00:31:02,680 --> 00:31:06,240 Speaker 9: final determinations about who we were going to call, and. 528 00:31:06,280 --> 00:31:07,120 Speaker 7: That's the point. 529 00:31:07,440 --> 00:31:09,760 Speaker 8: That is the point, the fact that they used her 530 00:31:10,160 --> 00:31:13,360 Speaker 8: in a primetime hearing and you won't rule out using her, 531 00:31:13,520 --> 00:31:15,640 Speaker 8: didn't rule out using her putting on the witness stand 532 00:31:15,760 --> 00:31:18,240 Speaker 8: when everybody knows she wasn't telling the truth. 533 00:31:18,600 --> 00:31:20,160 Speaker 7: That says it all. 534 00:31:20,800 --> 00:31:24,320 Speaker 8: That's the degree the left and Democrats were willing to 535 00:31:24,360 --> 00:31:27,200 Speaker 8: go to get President Trump putting on the witness stand someone. 536 00:31:27,000 --> 00:31:31,320 Speaker 7: Everybody knows is making it up. Everybody knows that, and 537 00:31:31,360 --> 00:31:31,920 Speaker 7: you were willing to do. 538 00:31:32,000 --> 00:31:34,160 Speaker 8: By the way, you know how many times Cassie Hutchinson 539 00:31:34,200 --> 00:31:37,320 Speaker 8: was mentioned in their report, the January sixth report, Any idea, 540 00:31:37,360 --> 00:31:42,000 Speaker 8: mister Smith, I do not one hundred and eighty five 541 00:31:42,160 --> 00:31:45,920 Speaker 8: times someone that the whole country knows wasn't telling the 542 00:31:46,000 --> 00:31:48,920 Speaker 8: truth and you were still considering putting her on the 543 00:31:48,960 --> 00:31:53,240 Speaker 8: witness stand because you had to get President Trump. And 544 00:31:53,400 --> 00:31:56,000 Speaker 8: everybody can see that, all right. 545 00:31:56,320 --> 00:31:59,920 Speaker 2: So that was Jim Jordan and again Republicans, they do 546 00:32:00,160 --> 00:32:03,040 Speaker 2: a great job at hearings, no doubt about it. My 547 00:32:03,160 --> 00:32:05,360 Speaker 2: question is when are we going to start arresting people? 548 00:32:05,880 --> 00:32:11,080 Speaker 2: When are we going to start holding people accountable? That's 549 00:32:11,320 --> 00:32:14,240 Speaker 2: that's what I want to know. By the way, the 550 00:32:14,320 --> 00:32:18,800 Speaker 2: Vice President on his way to Minneapolis today, Pam Bondi 551 00:32:19,560 --> 00:32:23,520 Speaker 2: warning that it is against the law to share personal 552 00:32:23,560 --> 00:32:28,000 Speaker 2: information about ICE agents online that could lead to federal charges. 553 00:32:30,000 --> 00:32:34,120 Speaker 2: The people who targeted that church, by the way, say 554 00:32:34,320 --> 00:32:37,479 Speaker 2: that they plan to do more of that.

I mean, they've 659 00:39:43,440 --> 00:39:46,960 Speaker 2: done all these hearings, and I just I mean, I 660 00:39:47,000 --> 00:39:49,040 Speaker 2: guess we could do. Some show hosts like to go 661 00:39:49,120 --> 00:39:52,719 Speaker 2: wall to wall with the hearings, but the reality is, 662 00:39:52,960 --> 00:39:55,480 Speaker 2: you and I both know they never really there's nothing 663 00:39:55,520 --> 00:39:59,000 Speaker 2: really that comes out of all of this, right, It's 664 00:39:59,560 --> 00:40:03,520 Speaker 2: it's just that's really for show, and that's sad. But 665 00:40:03,719 --> 00:40:06,959 Speaker 2: our Justice Department is just not willing to go down 666 00:40:07,000 --> 00:40:10,600 Speaker 2: that path and prosecute these people, and I you know, 667 00:40:10,760 --> 00:40:13,279 Speaker 2: it is what it is.

But 692 00:41:44,640 --> 00:41:49,239 Speaker 13: he can't really tell me what he's doing obviously, and 693 00:41:49,360 --> 00:41:54,400 Speaker 13: where are you? But he actually sent me a picture 694 00:41:55,400 --> 00:41:59,400 Speaker 13: and he got to go somewhere. I can't remember where, 695 00:42:00,200 --> 00:42:03,719 Speaker 13: but him in about six Marines were sitting on a 696 00:42:03,800 --> 00:42:08,440 Speaker 13: beach having a beer having to get on and that 697 00:42:08,600 --> 00:42:11,040 Speaker 13: was the last chance I got talked with him. It 698 00:42:11,080 --> 00:42:12,399 Speaker 13: was about three weeks ago. 699 00:42:14,640 --> 00:42:18,640 Speaker 2: Well, well, I'm glad you were able to talk to him, 700 00:42:18,719 --> 00:42:21,319 Speaker 2: and I'm sure we'll we'll hear all about it, even 701 00:42:21,480 --> 00:42:23,640 Speaker 2: one of these days, we'll hear all about it. But 702 00:42:23,640 --> 00:42:26,920 Speaker 2: there certainly is a lot of activity down south of 703 00:42:26,960 --> 00:42:27,400 Speaker 2: the border. 704 00:42:28,640 --> 00:42:30,800 Speaker 13: Yeah, as soon as I get a chance to actually 705 00:42:32,840 --> 00:42:36,000 Speaker 13: talk about it, when when he can be classify it, 706 00:42:36,480 --> 00:42:37,839 Speaker 13: I'll tell you all about it. 707 00:42:40,480 --> 00:42:41,440 Speaker 4: I was actual. 708 00:42:41,400 --> 00:42:44,239 Speaker 13: Thinking about something else until you brought it up. But 709 00:42:44,360 --> 00:42:48,960 Speaker 13: Colin Kaepernick kind of struck a. 710 00:42:49,040 --> 00:42:49,840 Speaker 11: Chord with me. 711 00:42:54,280 --> 00:42:59,920 Speaker 13: Just him doing what he did. You know, we my 712 00:43:00,160 --> 00:43:05,840 Speaker 13: sons down there fighting so we can have the freedoms 713 00:43:05,880 --> 00:43:09,680 Speaker 13: that we have. So Colin Kaepernick could do what he did. 714 00:43:10,560 --> 00:43:11,480 Speaker 4: But it's just. 715 00:43:12,920 --> 00:43:19,160 Speaker 13: How disrespectful it was. It is what gets me. 716 00:43:19,719 --> 00:43:22,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, well it is. It is disrespectful. 717 00:43:22,280 --> 00:43:22,520 Speaker 8: It is. 718 00:43:22,600 --> 00:43:25,759 Speaker 2: Let me just say this, Josh, it is disrespectful and 719 00:43:25,800 --> 00:43:27,960 Speaker 2: he meant it to me. I mean, Colin Kaepernick was 720 00:43:28,000 --> 00:43:30,200 Speaker 2: not only spitting on our flag, he was spitting on 721 00:43:30,239 --> 00:43:33,520 Speaker 2: our troops every time he took that knee. And for 722 00:43:33,600 --> 00:43:37,399 Speaker 2: the NFL to not have the courage to stand up 723 00:43:37,480 --> 00:43:40,000 Speaker 2: and put a stop to that when they had every 724 00:43:40,000 --> 00:43:45,320 Speaker 2: opportunity to do so. For me, is just really unacceptable. 725 00:43:45,440 --> 00:43:49,320 Speaker 2: So I hear exactly what you're saying, and I sense 726 00:43:49,320 --> 00:43:55,160 Speaker 2: your your frustration and anger, and it's it's righteous anger, Josh, 727 00:43:55,239 --> 00:43:57,439 Speaker 2: it truly is. I hate to do this, but we're 728 00:43:57,440 --> 00:43:59,960 Speaker 2: gonna have to scadadle, my friend. But God bless you 729 00:44:00,520 --> 00:44:03,680 Speaker 2: Goblesher's son, and all the Marines and the fighting men 730 00:44:03,719 --> 00:44:07,200 Speaker 2: and women who are down south of the border taking 731 00:44:07,239 --> 00:44:10,239 Speaker 2: care of business and keeping all of us safe. By 732 00:44:10,280 --> 00:44:13,279 Speaker 2: the way, this is interesting, the two arrests that were 733 00:44:13,320 --> 00:44:17,799 Speaker 2: made in Minneapolis. One of them is a member of 734 00:44:17,880 --> 00:44:23,320 Speaker 2: the Saint Paul school Board. Her name is Sean tel Allen. 735 00:44:23,840 --> 00:44:27,320 Speaker 2: She's leader, she's the leader of Black Lives Matter Twin Cities, 736 00:44:27,760 --> 00:44:32,759 Speaker 2: and she's also a school board member. You can't make 737 00:44:32,800 --> 00:44:37,400 Speaker 2: it up. You can't make it up. Nine oh one 738 00:44:37,480 --> 00:44:41,640 Speaker 2: two six zero five nine two six. Yesterday we had 739 00:44:41,640 --> 00:44:47,160 Speaker 2: a chance to talk to Ron Vittello, who has long 740 00:44:47,239 --> 00:44:49,560 Speaker 2: time been an analyst. 741 00:44:50,040 --> 00:44:51,160 Speaker 6: He's been an. 742 00:44:51,040 --> 00:44:54,480 Speaker 2: Advisor for Border Patrol. He joined me on my NEWSMAC 743 00:44:54,520 --> 00:44:57,120 Speaker 2: show to talk about all the chaos. Take a listen, Ron, 744 00:44:57,200 --> 00:44:59,680 Speaker 2: good to have you with us. Of course, this evening 745 00:44:59,719 --> 00:45:04,480 Speaker 2: we are seeing more clashes happening in Minneapolis, these mobs 746 00:45:04,520 --> 00:45:08,560 Speaker 2: going after federal agents, and I'm just curious, where is 747 00:45:08,600 --> 00:45:10,480 Speaker 2: the military and do you think that is the right 748 00:45:10,520 --> 00:45:12,959 Speaker 2: answer to send in the military to Minneapolis. 749 00:45:13,440 --> 00:45:16,080 Speaker 14: Well, that deployment is in the hands and the policy 750 00:45:16,120 --> 00:45:21,239 Speaker 14: decisions operationally with the president. Conditions are still about the 751 00:45:21,280 --> 00:45:24,479 Speaker 14: same as they were. The trigger or, like I said, 752 00:45:24,480 --> 00:45:27,759 Speaker 14: the execution order would come from the president. We do 753 00:45:27,880 --> 00:45:33,480 Speaker 14: have scaling up of the US Attorney's office in Minneapolis. Unfortunately, 754 00:45:33,520 --> 00:45:37,239 Speaker 14: the locals and the state police there are late to 755 00:45:37,320 --> 00:45:39,840 Speaker 14: the party, if you will, to help protect our people 756 00:45:39,880 --> 00:45:42,560 Speaker 14: on the ground, and so like Los Angeles, it might 757 00:45:42,600 --> 00:45:45,600 Speaker 14: take the soldiers to be able to do that for us. 758 00:45:46,120 --> 00:45:49,160 Speaker 14: But the US Attorney's Office is scaling up. We are 759 00:45:49,200 --> 00:45:52,920 Speaker 14: referring many cases of this assaultive behavior of these riots 760 00:45:53,280 --> 00:45:55,239 Speaker 14: and hands on our officers are being referred to the 761 00:45:55,320 --> 00:45:59,680 Speaker 14: US Attorney's Office. We've sent staff specifically to Minneapolis for 762 00:45:59,719 --> 00:46:01,960 Speaker 14: that purpose, and so I think you'll see a lot 763 00:46:02,000 --> 00:46:05,400 Speaker 14: more arrests and certainly prosecutions of the people who engage 764 00:46:05,400 --> 00:46:06,080 Speaker 14: in that activity. 765 00:46:06,719 --> 00:46:08,880 Speaker 2: You know, I suppose one of the big concerns I 766 00:46:08,920 --> 00:46:12,600 Speaker 2: have here is the narrative. Clearly, the mainstream media is 767 00:46:12,600 --> 00:46:14,919 Speaker 2: on the other side of this, and that's pretty much 768 00:46:14,920 --> 00:46:17,520 Speaker 2: what the average American is seeing on their TV screen 769 00:46:17,560 --> 00:46:21,960 Speaker 2: at night. Media Research Center conducting analysis of the media coverage. 770 00:46:22,040 --> 00:46:25,279 Speaker 2: Let's take a look at this. They found ABC, CBS, 771 00:46:25,560 --> 00:46:30,719 Speaker 2: NBC's flag Chip evening newscasts all hammered Ice with more 772 00:46:30,800 --> 00:46:36,440 Speaker 2: than ninety percent negative coverage. Again, this is no surprise, 773 00:46:36,680 --> 00:46:38,840 Speaker 2: but you do have to wonder, how does this play 774 00:46:38,960 --> 00:46:43,680 Speaker 2: into the regular Joe that's watching the evening news and 775 00:46:43,680 --> 00:46:45,400 Speaker 2: seeing what's happening in Minneapolis. 776 00:46:45,680 --> 00:46:46,640 Speaker 11: Yeah, it's unfortunate. 777 00:46:47,320 --> 00:46:50,520 Speaker 14: The media complex in the United States, Present Company excluded, 778 00:46:51,120 --> 00:46:52,439 Speaker 14: is not serving the American people. 779 00:46:52,440 --> 00:46:53,279 Speaker 11: They're supposed to be. 780 00:46:53,239 --> 00:46:56,560 Speaker 14: Objective with the facts, and we know that Acadamia, Hollywood, 781 00:46:56,880 --> 00:47:01,160 Speaker 14: the media itself is propagating the the propaganda of the 782 00:47:01,239 --> 00:47:04,600 Speaker 14: left and saying what Ice is doing is not lawful, 783 00:47:04,640 --> 00:47:07,839 Speaker 14: They're doing kidnappings. You have representatives of the government there, 784 00:47:07,920 --> 00:47:11,799 Speaker 14: the mayor, the governor, all saying terrible things about the 785 00:47:11,840 --> 00:47:14,600 Speaker 14: front line and what they're doing and why they're there. 786 00:47:15,200 --> 00:47:17,200 Speaker 14: So we're kind of up against it. I agree with you. 787 00:47:17,480 --> 00:47:19,520 Speaker 14: We're going to continue the mission. We don't need their 788 00:47:19,560 --> 00:47:22,920 Speaker 14: permission to act in these cases. And then we're going 789 00:47:22,960 --> 00:47:25,040 Speaker 14: to do our best to refute what's going on and 790 00:47:25,080 --> 00:47:27,680 Speaker 14: show the facts, get our own videos out there, get 791 00:47:27,680 --> 00:47:30,520 Speaker 14: our own social media out there. But the American people 792 00:47:30,560 --> 00:47:32,799 Speaker 14: are being disserved by the mainstream MEDA. 793 00:47:32,800 --> 00:47:36,200 Speaker 2: I agree with you, well, no doubt about that. Meanwhile, 794 00:47:36,200 --> 00:47:39,520 Speaker 2: in twenty fifteen, Tom Homan received the Presidential Rank Award. 795 00:47:39,600 --> 00:47:43,239 Speaker 2: This is the highest civil service honor awarded back then 796 00:47:43,520 --> 00:47:47,919 Speaker 2: by Barack Hussein Obama. Homan was honored for removing more 797 00:47:47,920 --> 00:47:52,160 Speaker 2: than nine hundred and twenty thousand illegals from the homeland. Today, 798 00:47:52,480 --> 00:47:56,320 Speaker 2: the left calls Tom Homan a fascist and a NANSI. 799 00:47:57,120 --> 00:47:58,879 Speaker 2: What does that tell you about all of this? 800 00:47:59,280 --> 00:48:01,279 Speaker 11: Yeah, this is a very interesting history, right. 801 00:48:01,760 --> 00:48:03,720 Speaker 14: Barack Obama was called the deporter in chief. 802 00:48:03,760 --> 00:48:04,640 Speaker 11: Why was that? 803 00:48:04,640 --> 00:48:07,120 Speaker 14: That was because he was the first president to have 804 00:48:07,160 --> 00:48:09,440 Speaker 14: a term after the George W. 805 00:48:09,560 --> 00:48:11,760 Speaker 11: Bush who had the term right after nine to eleven. 806 00:48:12,400 --> 00:48:15,279 Speaker 14: And so the DHS and ICE built a system called 807 00:48:15,320 --> 00:48:19,040 Speaker 14: Secure Communities which referred every single illegal alien who was 808 00:48:19,120 --> 00:48:22,440 Speaker 14: arrested in any jurisdiction in the United States to ICE. 809 00:48:23,440 --> 00:48:27,440 Speaker 14: A formal detainer was lodged electronically, and those people were 810 00:48:27,440 --> 00:48:31,520 Speaker 14: removed quickly. That pipeline was built during the Bush administration. 811 00:48:31,880 --> 00:48:34,719 Speaker 14: It was torn down in the second half of Obama's 812 00:48:34,760 --> 00:48:38,360 Speaker 14: term or his second term, and so Trump one inherited 813 00:48:38,360 --> 00:48:41,759 Speaker 14: a broken secure Communities program, and every city in town 814 00:48:41,880 --> 00:48:45,360 Speaker 14: since then, you know, once Massachusetts left, the Cook County 815 00:48:45,360 --> 00:48:47,680 Speaker 14: in Illinois and then every other city in town, the 816 00:48:47,840 --> 00:48:51,120 Speaker 14: entire state of Minneapolis or Minnesota, the entire state of 817 00:48:51,160 --> 00:48:54,400 Speaker 14: California are now sanctuaries. And so that system was broken 818 00:48:54,440 --> 00:48:57,439 Speaker 14: by the Democrats, and we're trying to recover from that. 819 00:48:57,440 --> 00:49:00,160 Speaker 14: That would you know, if Congress acted here to reinstate 820 00:49:00,239 --> 00:49:04,840 Speaker 14: that program fully, or these lawsuits against Los Angeles, Chicago, 821 00:49:05,280 --> 00:49:08,920 Speaker 14: New York, Minneapolis, if those came our way in the courts, 822 00:49:08,920 --> 00:49:11,960 Speaker 14: which I'm not very hopeful for, we could put that 823 00:49:12,360 --> 00:49:16,000 Speaker 14: apparatus back together. But on on the silver lining side, 824 00:49:16,080 --> 00:49:18,359 Speaker 14: about two million people have elected to leave the United 825 00:49:18,400 --> 00:49:21,240 Speaker 14: States for fear of deportation. 826 00:49:20,760 --> 00:49:21,920 Speaker 11: Under the government terms. 827 00:49:22,080 --> 00:49:25,400 Speaker 14: About five hundred thousand have been removed through the ICE process, 828 00:49:25,960 --> 00:49:28,080 Speaker 14: and more to come. They're going to increase the incentive 829 00:49:28,120 --> 00:49:31,560 Speaker 14: for people to self deport. That mechanism is a good 830 00:49:31,640 --> 00:49:35,719 Speaker 14: deal for the taxpayers right, and ICE is going to 831 00:49:35,760 --> 00:49:38,920 Speaker 14: continue to expand their capability for detention of these folks. 832 00:49:39,320 --> 00:49:43,399 Speaker 2: All right, Ron Vittello, on my Newsmax TV show last night, 833 00:49:43,560 --> 00:49:46,080 Speaker 2: we are going to take a quick break. We will 834 00:49:46,120 --> 00:49:49,200 Speaker 2: regroup our telephone number nine oh one two six zero 835 00:49:49,320 --> 00:49:51,759 Speaker 2: five to nine two six. That's nine oh one two 836 00:49:51,840 --> 00:49:54,160 Speaker 2: six zero five, nine two six. This is the Todd 837 00:49:54,200 --> 00:50:09,000 Speaker 2: Sterns Show. All right, welcome back, everybody. Great to have 838 00:50:09,080 --> 00:50:15,520 Speaker 2: you with us today. Our good friend, Congressman Barry Laudermilk 839 00:50:15,640 --> 00:50:19,600 Speaker 2: from the beautiful state of Georgia, has a brand new 840 00:50:19,600 --> 00:50:23,759 Speaker 2: book out talking about prayer and how prayer influenced the 841 00:50:23,800 --> 00:50:27,080 Speaker 2: founding of the country and the role that prayer had 842 00:50:27,640 --> 00:50:31,160 Speaker 2: throughout American history. We're going to talk about that along 843 00:50:31,200 --> 00:50:34,200 Speaker 2: with some other issues. Let's check out our conversation last 844 00:50:34,239 --> 00:50:37,799 Speaker 2: night on Newsmax with Congressman Laudermilk. Congressman, good to have 845 00:50:37,880 --> 00:50:40,520 Speaker 2: you with us. Author, by the way of a great 846 00:50:40,600 --> 00:50:43,800 Speaker 2: new book called and Then They Prayed. Moments in American 847 00:50:43,880 --> 00:50:47,680 Speaker 2: History impacted by prayer. Congressman will get into that book. 848 00:50:47,440 --> 00:50:48,200 Speaker 11: In just a moment. 849 00:50:48,600 --> 00:50:50,800 Speaker 2: What the heck is going on in the US Senate? 850 00:50:51,040 --> 00:50:53,720 Speaker 15: Well, I'm not sure about that or the leaked letter, 851 00:50:53,760 --> 00:50:56,400 Speaker 15: but you're right that Senator Grassley. 852 00:50:56,120 --> 00:50:57,400 Speaker 11: Is back on board. 853 00:50:57,440 --> 00:51:00,480 Speaker 15: Look, we've got to do something here in the country 854 00:51:00,520 --> 00:51:04,520 Speaker 15: about protecting the integrity of our election system. I serve 855 00:51:04,640 --> 00:51:08,320 Speaker 15: on the Committee on House Administration, which has jurisdiction over elections, 856 00:51:08,800 --> 00:51:13,279 Speaker 15: and we're working I think as leaders. Falsas said that 857 00:51:13,360 --> 00:51:16,880 Speaker 15: we need to kind of beef up the legislation a 858 00:51:16,880 --> 00:51:19,759 Speaker 15: little more to make sure that for federal elections, not 859 00:51:19,800 --> 00:51:23,640 Speaker 15: only do we require voter ID, but it has to 860 00:51:23,680 --> 00:51:27,800 Speaker 15: be some type of picture ID where these states can't 861 00:51:27,840 --> 00:51:32,399 Speaker 15: just go and take a state university and say, look, 862 00:51:32,440 --> 00:51:34,640 Speaker 15: we've got a college ID that we issued and so 863 00:51:34,719 --> 00:51:37,520 Speaker 15: that can be used. Look, there's plenty of folks that 864 00:51:37,840 --> 00:51:40,759 Speaker 15: are not US citizens going to our colleges here. So 865 00:51:41,480 --> 00:51:45,520 Speaker 15: I think we need to really improve some of the language. 866 00:51:45,560 --> 00:51:48,400 Speaker 15: I think to save actor is great, it's needed, but 867 00:51:48,640 --> 00:51:50,960 Speaker 15: it does need to have a little more teeth to 868 00:51:51,000 --> 00:51:53,680 Speaker 15: protect our election system. Because if you don't have integrity 869 00:51:53,680 --> 00:51:56,279 Speaker 15: in the election system, then we don't have we the 870 00:51:56,320 --> 00:51:58,880 Speaker 15: people in charge. You know, it's a good point you 871 00:51:58,960 --> 00:51:59,560 Speaker 15: raised Congress. 872 00:51:59,560 --> 00:52:01,560 Speaker 2: So a couple of weeks ago, I was not feeling 873 00:52:01,600 --> 00:52:04,320 Speaker 2: well a little under the weather, went to my drug 874 00:52:04,360 --> 00:52:07,080 Speaker 2: store got some Nike. Well guess what I had to 875 00:52:07,120 --> 00:52:09,600 Speaker 2: do just to get some nipril, I had to show 876 00:52:09,640 --> 00:52:14,000 Speaker 2: some identification. Congressmen, you're telling me that people can't show 877 00:52:14,080 --> 00:52:16,359 Speaker 2: up and vote on election day without showing some form 878 00:52:16,360 --> 00:52:16,840 Speaker 2: of ID. 879 00:52:17,719 --> 00:52:21,520 Speaker 15: Well, they absolutely can. The Democrats know that they can, 880 00:52:22,000 --> 00:52:24,440 Speaker 15: and this is an issue that they have. I mean, 881 00:52:24,560 --> 00:52:30,960 Speaker 15: if they want folks exactly what our founding fathers warned 882 00:52:31,040 --> 00:52:33,400 Speaker 15: us about is that when people can come and they 883 00:52:33,440 --> 00:52:36,160 Speaker 15: can vote themselves a pay raise, or they can vote 884 00:52:36,160 --> 00:52:40,719 Speaker 15: themselves entitlements, or they can have a constituency that will 885 00:52:40,840 --> 00:52:44,799 Speaker 15: ensure that the government and taxpayers pay for their entire livelihood. 886 00:52:45,280 --> 00:52:47,960 Speaker 15: That's what the founders were trying to avoid, and that's 887 00:52:48,000 --> 00:52:51,040 Speaker 15: why US citizens look as US citizens that pay the 888 00:52:51,080 --> 00:52:54,400 Speaker 15: tax dollars, the end up funding all of the benefits 889 00:52:54,480 --> 00:52:56,680 Speaker 15: for folks who are not supposed to be here to 890 00:52:56,760 --> 00:53:00,000 Speaker 15: receive all these benefits, many of which even US citizen 891 00:53:00,440 --> 00:53:06,720 Speaker 15: can't receive. So it's by all common sense, you should 892 00:53:06,719 --> 00:53:09,279 Speaker 15: only be a US citizen and you should have to 893 00:53:09,360 --> 00:53:12,480 Speaker 15: prove your citizenship when you go vote in a federal election. 894 00:53:13,160 --> 00:53:15,040 Speaker 2: Congressman, it seems to me that you guys on the 895 00:53:15,040 --> 00:53:18,000 Speaker 2: House side, you're doing the job Speaker Mike Johnson getting 896 00:53:18,000 --> 00:53:22,040 Speaker 2: the president's agenda through. Meanwhile, on the Senate, I think 897 00:53:22,080 --> 00:53:24,480 Speaker 2: a lot of folks look at the Senate and they're 898 00:53:24,520 --> 00:53:27,360 Speaker 2: almost treating this fight with the Democrats like it's a 899 00:53:27,440 --> 00:53:31,000 Speaker 2: cotillion down at the country club. At what point do 900 00:53:31,080 --> 00:53:33,160 Speaker 2: they need to blow up the filibusters so they can 901 00:53:33,200 --> 00:53:36,000 Speaker 2: get the president's agenda through Congress. 902 00:53:36,320 --> 00:53:37,880 Speaker 15: You know, that's one of those things that we have 903 00:53:37,960 --> 00:53:40,960 Speaker 15: been talking about since I got here. You know, when 904 00:53:41,040 --> 00:53:45,200 Speaker 15: Republicans are in control, we were all wanting to blow 905 00:53:45,280 --> 00:53:47,600 Speaker 15: up the filibuster, which I was supportive of. But then 906 00:53:47,680 --> 00:53:50,239 Speaker 15: when the Democrats controlled the Senate, I was kind of 907 00:53:50,239 --> 00:53:53,280 Speaker 15: glad that it was there. But at the same time, 908 00:53:53,480 --> 00:53:55,759 Speaker 15: I think that they can do some adjustments to that. 909 00:53:56,120 --> 00:53:56,879 Speaker 11: If you're going to have. 910 00:53:56,840 --> 00:54:00,719 Speaker 15: A filibuster, let's do the old fashioned mister goes to 911 00:54:00,920 --> 00:54:04,680 Speaker 15: Washington filibuster, where you just don't do it by sitting 912 00:54:04,680 --> 00:54:08,720 Speaker 15: in your office and voting for cloture. Haul yourself down 913 00:54:08,800 --> 00:54:12,480 Speaker 15: to the well and speak and control the House or 914 00:54:12,560 --> 00:54:14,920 Speaker 15: control the Senate for as long as you can. That 915 00:54:15,120 --> 00:54:18,839 Speaker 15: was the idea of the Framers of our constitution. Instituting 916 00:54:18,880 --> 00:54:23,080 Speaker 15: a real filibuster was not just some way of, well, 917 00:54:23,080 --> 00:54:26,000 Speaker 15: we got to have sixty votes to break cloture, be 918 00:54:26,080 --> 00:54:30,040 Speaker 15: in front of the American people, articulate why you are 919 00:54:30,120 --> 00:54:32,640 Speaker 15: trying to stand in the way and blocking this legislation. 920 00:54:32,760 --> 00:54:35,160 Speaker 11: I think that's a great compromise. The Senate can go with. 921 00:54:35,320 --> 00:54:37,520 Speaker 2: Congressman, I want to talk about your book. And then 922 00:54:37,640 --> 00:54:42,680 Speaker 2: they prayed moments in American history impacted by prayer. I'm wondering, 923 00:54:42,680 --> 00:54:45,960 Speaker 2: did you did you have a difficult time finding examples 924 00:54:46,000 --> 00:54:46,279 Speaker 2: of that? 925 00:54:46,800 --> 00:54:47,880 Speaker 11: Oh? Absolutely not. 926 00:54:48,080 --> 00:54:51,360 Speaker 15: I mean the difficulty was just picking which moments of 927 00:54:51,360 --> 00:54:55,040 Speaker 15: American history that prayer had significant impact to put in 928 00:54:55,200 --> 00:55:00,239 Speaker 15: the book. It's written in story form because it took 929 00:55:00,320 --> 00:55:03,680 Speaker 15: me take over ten years of research to get these 930 00:55:03,920 --> 00:55:09,720 Speaker 15: very accurate, very factual stories about God's divine intervention throughout 931 00:55:09,760 --> 00:55:13,239 Speaker 15: American history. Not because I'm saying is divine intervention, but 932 00:55:13,280 --> 00:55:17,080 Speaker 15: the people who were there, from George Washington all the 933 00:55:17,120 --> 00:55:21,040 Speaker 15: way up to the Pollowate's space mission. There have been times 934 00:55:21,040 --> 00:55:24,840 Speaker 15: in our country when we were against all oughts, right, 935 00:55:25,040 --> 00:55:29,120 Speaker 15: circumstances were totally against against us, but then there were 936 00:55:29,160 --> 00:55:31,880 Speaker 15: these acts of divine providence that were as a result 937 00:55:31,920 --> 00:55:35,200 Speaker 15: of prayer. And it's important going into the two hundred 938 00:55:35,239 --> 00:55:38,319 Speaker 15: and fiftieth anniversary of our country that if we want 939 00:55:38,400 --> 00:55:41,440 Speaker 15: to continue to go another ten, twenty thirty or two 940 00:55:41,480 --> 00:55:43,800 Speaker 15: hundred and fifty, we have to go back and revisit 941 00:55:44,040 --> 00:55:47,320 Speaker 15: and see what sustained us during the first two hundred 942 00:55:47,320 --> 00:55:50,360 Speaker 15: and fifty years. And it's that divine providence that our 943 00:55:50,440 --> 00:55:53,319 Speaker 15: founders were not ashamed to talk about. And I think 944 00:55:53,360 --> 00:55:55,480 Speaker 15: this is something it's a time in our country that 945 00:55:55,560 --> 00:55:58,120 Speaker 15: we need to return to that. In fact, the first 946 00:55:58,600 --> 00:56:02,120 Speaker 15: pre release copy that I received, I had a meeting 947 00:56:02,160 --> 00:56:04,200 Speaker 15: with President Trump in the White House that day. I 948 00:56:04,239 --> 00:56:06,920 Speaker 15: took the first copy that I got from the publisher 949 00:56:07,480 --> 00:56:09,560 Speaker 15: over with me and I handed it to him, and 950 00:56:09,600 --> 00:56:13,719 Speaker 15: I had inscribed in the book to the President, I said, 951 00:56:13,760 --> 00:56:17,200 Speaker 15: for someone who has also experienced an active divine providence. 952 00:56:17,840 --> 00:56:20,080 Speaker 15: He turned and looked at me, and he pointed to 953 00:56:20,120 --> 00:56:22,279 Speaker 15: his ear and he said, if God hadn't told me 954 00:56:22,320 --> 00:56:24,440 Speaker 15: to turn my head at that exact moment, I wouldn't 955 00:56:24,440 --> 00:56:27,920 Speaker 15: be here today. Barry, and I know he read it 956 00:56:27,960 --> 00:56:31,320 Speaker 15: because about three months later he came out and endorsed 957 00:56:31,320 --> 00:56:35,920 Speaker 15: the book. And so this is the feedback we've gotten 958 00:56:35,920 --> 00:56:40,040 Speaker 15: from people is tremendous. It's putting you at Valley Forge 959 00:56:40,560 --> 00:56:43,440 Speaker 15: with George Washington. You're in the capsule of a Pollow 960 00:56:43,440 --> 00:56:46,440 Speaker 15: eight space mission.

And 1013 00:59:30,080 --> 00:59:32,600 Speaker 16: I got a half gallon just in case. 1014 00:59:32,920 --> 00:59:35,600 Speaker 2: Wow, yeah, you gotta do well. Look whatever gets you 1015 00:59:35,640 --> 00:59:38,360 Speaker 2: through the storm. I will say this. We have a 1016 00:59:38,400 --> 00:59:41,040 Speaker 2: couple of ladies that love our radio station, love our 1017 00:59:41,120 --> 00:59:45,680 Speaker 2: radio show. And they're both named Kristen, and they live 1018 00:59:45,720 --> 00:59:48,640 Speaker 2: in Germantown. We call them the real Housewives of Germantown 1019 00:59:48,680 --> 00:59:51,640 Speaker 2: in a very affectionate way. Yes, and they felt I 1020 00:59:51,640 --> 00:59:53,960 Speaker 2: guess he felt bad because they're like, you know, Stearns 1021 00:59:54,000 --> 00:59:56,320 Speaker 2: is going to be you know at the station. We 1022 00:59:56,640 --> 00:59:58,760 Speaker 2: still have to do a national show. It doesn't matter 1023 00:59:58,800 --> 01:00:01,600 Speaker 2: if we have twenty eight feet of snow outside. So 1024 01:00:01,640 --> 01:00:03,960 Speaker 2: they brought me homemade sausage balls. 1025 01:00:04,840 --> 01:00:06,600 Speaker 16: Was that, kristin New brought you down? 1026 01:00:06,800 --> 01:00:09,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, we're not gonna get Yeah, but the last names. 1027 01:00:09,960 --> 01:00:12,400 Speaker 2: But one brought those sausage balls and the other brought 1028 01:00:12,440 --> 01:00:13,160 Speaker 2: homemade guac. 1029 01:00:13,560 --> 01:00:16,440 Speaker 16: They uh, you know they're famous for both of those things. 1030 01:00:16,520 --> 01:00:17,120 Speaker 2: Yes, they are. 1031 01:00:17,280 --> 01:00:18,400 Speaker 16: It's quite tasty. 1032 01:00:18,480 --> 01:00:21,400 Speaker 2: You see. This is why I love conservative women just 1033 01:00:21,480 --> 01:00:22,040 Speaker 2: in general. 1034 01:00:22,400 --> 01:00:22,600 Speaker 17: Yeah. 1035 01:00:22,640 --> 01:00:24,240 Speaker 16: They know how to cook, They know how to take 1036 01:00:24,240 --> 01:00:26,240 Speaker 16: care of families, and they know how to knock on 1037 01:00:26,320 --> 01:00:27,840 Speaker 16: doors and campaigns. 1038 01:00:27,360 --> 01:00:29,880 Speaker 2: And they bathed regularly. Yeah, I like, you know a 1039 01:00:29,880 --> 01:00:35,200 Speaker 2: lot of those of those big gals up in Uha. 1040 01:00:33,840 --> 01:00:37,520 Speaker 16: And Culter had a tweet this morning about how baudets 1041 01:00:37,640 --> 01:00:40,600 Speaker 16: are not American and she said, it's the next way. 1042 01:00:40,680 --> 01:00:43,240 Speaker 16: You know, soccer is not American. Boudets are not American. 1043 01:00:43,240 --> 01:00:46,320 Speaker 16: It's a sign of our cultural decline. And she said 1044 01:00:46,320 --> 01:00:48,560 Speaker 16: the reason we don't need them is because Americans bathe 1045 01:00:48,640 --> 01:00:50,680 Speaker 16: every day. In Europe, they don't do that. 1046 01:00:50,760 --> 01:00:52,640 Speaker 2: First time I saw one, I'm like, who put a 1047 01:00:52,640 --> 01:00:54,480 Speaker 2: water fountain in the middle of a commode? Who does that? 1048 01:00:54,560 --> 01:00:56,640 Speaker 16: You know, I actually don't know how to use them. 1049 01:00:57,320 --> 01:01:00,200 Speaker 2: We're not going down that path. We're not going this 1050 01:01:00,240 --> 01:01:06,120 Speaker 2: is not MPR Alright, So look, let's talk about a 1051 01:01:06,120 --> 01:01:08,480 Speaker 2: couple of things here. There is President Trump is very 1052 01:01:08,560 --> 01:01:12,680 Speaker 2: upset right now at the New York Times, they release 1053 01:01:12,800 --> 01:01:15,680 Speaker 2: new polling data and they say it doesn't look good 1054 01:01:15,680 --> 01:01:18,400 Speaker 2: for the president. The president says, the Times has to 1055 01:01:18,640 --> 01:01:23,240 Speaker 2: pay a price. This is a Sienna University poll. Forty 1056 01:01:23,320 --> 01:01:27,120 Speaker 2: percent of registered voters approve of President Trump, that's according 1057 01:01:27,200 --> 01:01:30,760 Speaker 2: to the poll results. And they say voters have an 1058 01:01:30,800 --> 01:01:35,400 Speaker 2: unfavorable view of the President's performance on almost every issue tested. 1059 01:01:35,800 --> 01:01:39,480 Speaker 16: What say you, I think Sienna was really not accurate 1060 01:01:39,560 --> 01:01:42,680 Speaker 16: during the election, and they're probably not super accurate now. 1061 01:01:42,760 --> 01:01:46,240 Speaker 16: Polsters just don't know how to poll MAGA. There are 1062 01:01:46,320 --> 01:01:49,240 Speaker 16: some theories about that. Maybe it's the change in going 1063 01:01:49,240 --> 01:01:53,080 Speaker 16: from telephone to texting to web. Nobody really knows, but 1064 01:01:53,240 --> 01:01:56,200 Speaker 16: pulsters just are not that great at MECCA. The other 1065 01:01:56,240 --> 01:01:58,120 Speaker 16: thing I would like to say is when when Ronald 1066 01:01:58,160 --> 01:02:01,640 Speaker 16: Reagan took office, he was a change agent. Especially that 1067 01:02:01,760 --> 01:02:05,400 Speaker 16: first year in office. He slashed the federal budget, he 1068 01:02:05,560 --> 01:02:09,880 Speaker 16: fired so many federal workers, and his approval ratings from 1069 01:02:09,920 --> 01:02:12,560 Speaker 16: these mainstream polls went down into the thirties and then 1070 01:02:12,640 --> 01:02:15,560 Speaker 16: within and then we saw that massive re election three 1071 01:02:15,680 --> 01:02:18,200 Speaker 16: short years two and a half, three short years later. 1072 01:02:18,320 --> 01:02:22,000 Speaker 16: So I want the change happening. Now, let's keep pushing, 1073 01:02:22,040 --> 01:02:25,280 Speaker 16: and I think these policies, especially on the economy. I 1074 01:02:25,280 --> 01:02:28,600 Speaker 16: think we're starting to see these policies take effect from 1075 01:02:28,640 --> 01:02:31,440 Speaker 16: the big Beautiful Bill. And if our economy is roaring 1076 01:02:31,520 --> 01:02:35,600 Speaker 16: come November, maybe we've got a shot at holding the 1077 01:02:35,600 --> 01:02:38,440 Speaker 16: House or losing very few Republican seats. 1078 01:02:38,560 --> 01:02:42,320 Speaker 2: So Carl Rove has a piece in the Wall Street 1079 01:02:42,360 --> 01:02:46,320 Speaker 2: Journal today and here's the headline, is Trump trying to 1080 01:02:46,720 --> 01:02:51,760 Speaker 2: lose the midterms? And here's what he wrote. He says 1081 01:02:52,160 --> 01:02:54,600 Speaker 2: Trump was worn in for a second time. It's been 1082 01:02:54,640 --> 01:02:58,080 Speaker 2: a year of rapid movement, controversy, upheaval. It's also been 1083 01:02:58,160 --> 01:03:01,720 Speaker 2: utterly mystifying. Why does president keep doing things that are 1084 01:03:01,720 --> 01:03:05,560 Speaker 2: against his political self interest? Why has he ignored the 1085 01:03:05,640 --> 01:03:08,640 Speaker 2: reality the midterms will be decided not only by how 1086 01:03:08,720 --> 01:03:12,480 Speaker 2: much his base is energized, but by whether Republicans carry 1087 01:03:12,480 --> 01:03:17,160 Speaker 2: independent and soft partisans are using any indication the President 1088 01:03:17,320 --> 01:03:19,040 Speaker 2: is losing support. 1089 01:03:19,000 --> 01:03:22,960 Speaker 16: No, if anything, it's he's gaining support. And I think 1090 01:03:23,000 --> 01:03:26,600 Speaker 16: it's it's an example of that when you have radical 1091 01:03:26,680 --> 01:03:31,440 Speaker 16: leftists storming into churches to disrupt church services in the 1092 01:03:31,520 --> 01:03:36,040 Speaker 16: name of protecting supposedly name of protecting illegal aliens. The 1093 01:03:36,240 --> 01:03:40,240 Speaker 16: vast majority of Americans really dislike that, So we just 1094 01:03:40,280 --> 01:03:42,560 Speaker 16: have to keep doing what we're doing. We need to 1095 01:03:42,600 --> 01:03:45,080 Speaker 16: make sure that the messaging is good. I think this 1096 01:03:45,240 --> 01:03:47,480 Speaker 16: Trump two point zero term, the messaging has been much 1097 01:03:47,600 --> 01:03:52,320 Speaker 16: much better. A couple of hiccups, but for the most part, 1098 01:03:52,360 --> 01:03:55,200 Speaker 16: I think people are really feeling good. And again, like 1099 01:03:55,240 --> 01:03:57,600 Speaker 16: I said, the economy is you're starting to feel it. 1100 01:03:57,680 --> 01:04:01,200 Speaker 16: This idea of Fanny May and Fred buying down the 1101 01:04:01,240 --> 01:04:03,800 Speaker 16: interest rates with their profit that that is going to 1102 01:04:03,880 --> 01:04:06,320 Speaker 16: be really popular. That we are already seeing an effect 1103 01:04:06,360 --> 01:04:09,840 Speaker 16: with the home starting to sell more, the prices starting 1104 01:04:09,880 --> 01:04:11,360 Speaker 16: to go up a little bit. I think it's going 1105 01:04:11,440 --> 01:04:14,680 Speaker 16: to be roaring come spring, and that bodes very very 1106 01:04:14,680 --> 01:04:15,800 Speaker 16: well for Republicans. 1107 01:04:15,880 --> 01:04:18,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, and in that and I believe all that to 1108 01:04:18,560 --> 01:04:21,880 Speaker 2: be true. I really do. I'm not buying a lot 1109 01:04:21,920 --> 01:04:24,760 Speaker 2: of these polls that are out there. I mean, when 1110 01:04:24,760 --> 01:04:27,840 Speaker 2: you go out and these local TV stations are going 1111 01:04:27,880 --> 01:04:32,240 Speaker 2: and asking people in places like Portland, Maine about the illegals, 1112 01:04:32,800 --> 01:04:37,920 Speaker 2: everybody's happy. Everybody understands what Ice is up to, contrary 1113 01:04:38,000 --> 01:04:41,120 Speaker 2: to the narrative coming out of the big network. 1114 01:04:41,280 --> 01:04:45,840 Speaker 16: Right, You're exactly right. And I also think the administration 1115 01:04:46,040 --> 01:04:50,200 Speaker 16: is following Todd Starn's ex accounts because maybe it was 1116 01:04:50,280 --> 01:04:52,640 Speaker 16: yesterday or the day before you started tweeting. You said, 1117 01:04:52,680 --> 01:04:56,000 Speaker 16: where are the arrests from the radicals invading the churches? 1118 01:04:56,240 --> 01:04:59,600 Speaker 16: And suddenly we see Pam Bondi in Minnesota and she 1119 01:04:59,680 --> 01:05:01,440 Speaker 16: started to announce a rest. I don't know if you 1120 01:05:01,560 --> 01:05:04,040 Speaker 16: noticed that, but I think they're following your ex accounts. 1121 01:05:04,120 --> 01:05:09,600 Speaker 2: Well, I'm look, I do not. I do not just 1122 01:05:09,880 --> 01:05:13,000 Speaker 2: follow the president, you know, just blindly. And when I 1123 01:05:13,040 --> 01:05:15,280 Speaker 2: see the administration doing something that I know is going 1124 01:05:15,360 --> 01:05:17,000 Speaker 2: to get them blow back on the base, I'm going 1125 01:05:17,040 --> 01:05:19,080 Speaker 2: to bring it up. Yeah, So, well, are you afraid of, 1126 01:05:19,200 --> 01:05:22,360 Speaker 2: you know, not getting invited? But no, I'm not. And 1127 01:05:22,600 --> 01:05:24,480 Speaker 2: you know, I don't think I don't. I think I'd 1128 01:05:24,520 --> 01:05:26,880 Speaker 2: like to think the president appreciates it. I know her 1129 01:05:26,960 --> 01:05:29,200 Speaker 2: meat Dylan did. She kind of got a little upset, 1130 01:05:29,240 --> 01:05:32,160 Speaker 2: and look, I understand, but the reality is it's been 1131 01:05:32,200 --> 01:05:34,520 Speaker 2: a year, right, you know, I mean how much longer 1132 01:05:34,560 --> 01:05:35,280 Speaker 2: do we have to wait? 1133 01:05:35,560 --> 01:05:38,280 Speaker 16: Look, I think a little respectful pushing is good. And 1134 01:05:38,800 --> 01:05:42,480 Speaker 16: the thing that presidential administrations come and go, but the 1135 01:05:42,520 --> 01:05:44,320 Speaker 16: Todd Starn Show is here to stay. 1136 01:05:44,640 --> 01:05:47,360 Speaker 2: So I like that. Yeah, you puled a bumper stick? 1137 01:05:49,280 --> 01:05:52,720 Speaker 2: Want a place of audio that do we have the church? 1138 01:05:53,000 --> 01:05:56,720 Speaker 2: This is one of the church agitators. Let's play this. 1139 01:05:57,560 --> 01:06:00,760 Speaker 17: As you can see all these pretend Christians, all these 1140 01:06:00,880 --> 01:06:05,720 Speaker 17: comfortable white people who are living lavish, comfortable lives while 1141 01:06:05,800 --> 01:06:09,520 Speaker 17: children are dragged into concentration camps. You're living real life, 1142 01:06:09,600 --> 01:06:12,920 Speaker 17: nice lives in your lattes, doing absolutely nothing for your 1143 01:06:13,000 --> 01:06:15,560 Speaker 17: Latino and Somali brothers and sisters. 1144 01:06:15,760 --> 01:06:18,640 Speaker 18: You come here to a man wearing a suit? Is 1145 01:06:18,680 --> 01:06:21,840 Speaker 18: a preacher? Did Jesus wear a suit? Did Jesus crows 1146 01:06:22,000 --> 01:06:25,480 Speaker 18: off the words? No, Jesus would die with an others? 1147 01:06:25,600 --> 01:06:28,760 Speaker 18: You do not touch me?

You're sinners? You're pretending to be Christians, 1154 01:06:44,960 --> 01:06:46,920 Speaker 18: but we know you live in easy life. Don't you 1155 01:06:47,240 --> 01:06:49,960 Speaker 18: a very easy life while people are starving? 1156 01:06:50,440 --> 01:06:53,280 Speaker 2: Okay, enough for that guy. You can smell the guy. 1157 01:06:53,360 --> 01:06:56,360 Speaker 2: You can smell the bachuli coming from this guy. Did 1158 01:06:56,360 --> 01:07:00,400 Speaker 2: that man's name is William Kelly. We can now report, Dylan, 1159 01:07:00,480 --> 01:07:01,960 Speaker 2: we have some breaking news. 1160 01:07:02,280 --> 01:07:05,720 Speaker 11: Breaking news now on the Dodd starn Show. 1161 01:07:05,840 --> 01:07:10,560 Speaker 2: The Attorney General Pam Bondi announcing that William Kelly, who dared, 1162 01:07:11,240 --> 01:07:14,360 Speaker 2: dared Ice to come and arrest him, dared the DOJ 1163 01:07:14,560 --> 01:07:17,640 Speaker 2: to come and arrest him, is now in custody. So 1164 01:07:17,960 --> 01:07:21,080 Speaker 2: well done, Pam Bondi. That's number three, a third person 1165 01:07:21,120 --> 01:07:22,400 Speaker 2: now arrested in Minneapolis. 1166 01:07:22,480 --> 01:07:24,640 Speaker 16: Very good. And I want them to keep doing arrest 1167 01:07:24,720 --> 01:07:27,840 Speaker 16: one after another and release their names and announce it. 1168 01:07:27,920 --> 01:07:31,960 Speaker 2: I wanted to put the squeeze on the Lemon, Don Lemon, 1169 01:07:32,440 --> 01:07:35,600 Speaker 2: so look, we've got some we have some intel about this. 1170 01:07:35,600 --> 01:07:39,520 Speaker 2: This is insane. So this is unconfirmed reporting, but it's 1171 01:07:39,520 --> 01:07:42,600 Speaker 2: out there by some of these these independent journalists that 1172 01:07:42,720 --> 01:07:46,680 Speaker 2: Bondi wanted to have Don Lemon arrested, but a federal 1173 01:07:46,720 --> 01:07:49,560 Speaker 2: magistrate said no, I'm not going to sign off on 1174 01:07:49,600 --> 01:07:50,240 Speaker 2: those sturges. 1175 01:07:51,000 --> 01:07:55,480 Speaker 16: Well, why he it's on tape, It's on video. There's 1176 01:07:55,480 --> 01:07:58,120 Speaker 16: tape of him talking about how it was pre planned. 1177 01:07:58,440 --> 01:08:02,000 Speaker 16: I mean, what hell, God, he's no journalist. No he's not. 1178 01:08:02,160 --> 01:08:05,760 Speaker 16: He's an act. He's a radical activist. He's gross. Uh 1179 01:08:05,800 --> 01:08:07,920 Speaker 16: and he's starting to look a little weathered. I don't know, 1180 01:08:08,000 --> 01:08:09,000 Speaker 16: he looked terrible. 1181 01:08:09,840 --> 01:08:12,840 Speaker 2: It's uh, it's amazing what professional makeup artists can do, 1182 01:08:13,200 --> 01:08:17,360 Speaker 2: uh to make you look presentable on TV. And those 1183 01:08:17,400 --> 01:08:21,360 Speaker 2: women were miracle workers. Yes, and look I've got one 1184 01:08:21,600 --> 01:08:24,759 Speaker 2: uh and uh again the lovely miss christ We actually 1185 01:08:24,760 --> 01:08:26,639 Speaker 2: took a picture. We're gonna post a on the socials. 1186 01:08:27,040 --> 01:08:30,840 Speaker 2: The three Christians, including my makeup artist named Kristin. 1187 01:08:31,000 --> 01:08:33,559 Speaker 16: Christian, are very important to Todd Stars. 1188 01:08:33,680 --> 01:08:37,960 Speaker 2: Yes, indeed so. Anyway, according to Nick Sorter, the federal 1189 01:08:37,960 --> 01:08:41,559 Speaker 2: magistrate refused to sign off on the DOJ's charges against 1190 01:08:41,760 --> 01:08:47,040 Speaker 2: Don Lemon. Just again, another activist judge running cover for 1191 01:08:47,120 --> 01:08:50,439 Speaker 2: the left. And this this law fair being waged from 1192 01:08:50,479 --> 01:08:53,240 Speaker 2: the bench. I mean, I know you're an attorney. Uh, 1193 01:08:53,280 --> 01:08:56,599 Speaker 2: And Luca's got to be frustrating to see what's happening. 1194 01:08:56,680 --> 01:09:01,360 Speaker 16: We have impeachment, you know, the legislation. State legislators with 1195 01:09:01,439 --> 01:09:06,519 Speaker 16: activist judges, the federal legislature with activist judges can impeach judges. 1196 01:09:06,560 --> 01:09:10,800 Speaker 16: And until we start using the constitutional tools available to 1197 01:09:10,880 --> 01:09:13,680 Speaker 16: us to hold them accountable, it's just going to continue. 1198 01:09:14,000 --> 01:09:17,040 Speaker 16: It's going to continue. And what's up with all I'm 1199 01:09:17,120 --> 01:09:20,280 Speaker 16: starting to see several judges who were not even born 1200 01:09:20,439 --> 01:09:23,479 Speaker 16: in the country who are now making decisions and saying 1201 01:09:23,479 --> 01:09:25,799 Speaker 16: the President of the United States cannot use his executive 1202 01:09:25,800 --> 01:09:28,960 Speaker 16: authority to do what he needs to do. What we 1203 01:09:29,000 --> 01:09:33,599 Speaker 16: have literal foreigners stopping the government from following, and every 1204 01:09:33,600 --> 01:09:37,640 Speaker 16: court of Appeals and the Supreme Court just keeps overturning, overturning, overturning. 1205 01:09:37,800 --> 01:09:42,200 Speaker 2: So Portland, Maine this story speaking of that a correctional officer. 1206 01:09:42,280 --> 01:09:44,360 Speaker 2: So this is a guy who works in the prison system, 1207 01:09:44,760 --> 01:09:49,120 Speaker 2: has been detained by Ice because he's an illegal. So 1208 01:09:49,200 --> 01:09:52,840 Speaker 2: how is it that we're hiring these illegals to guard 1209 01:09:52,960 --> 01:09:53,760 Speaker 2: our prisoners? 1210 01:09:53,920 --> 01:09:56,960 Speaker 16: Yeah, terrible. There was another story I forgot where in 1211 01:09:56,960 --> 01:09:59,000 Speaker 16: the country was several months ago, but you had a 1212 01:09:59,040 --> 01:10:02,400 Speaker 16: police officer who was an illegal alien, and it just 1213 01:10:02,680 --> 01:10:04,400 Speaker 16: it doesn't make any sense to me. And we have 1214 01:10:04,560 --> 01:10:07,040 Speaker 16: the tools available to us to make sure that no 1215 01:10:07,200 --> 01:10:09,640 Speaker 16: illegal alien is ever hired in the United States. It 1216 01:10:09,720 --> 01:10:12,840 Speaker 16: is called e verify, and the idea that we have, 1217 01:10:13,000 --> 01:10:18,120 Speaker 16: even Republican states that have not yet mandated everify before hiring, 1218 01:10:18,520 --> 01:10:22,480 Speaker 16: is unacceptable. And sometimes it just feels like these Republicans 1219 01:10:23,240 --> 01:10:25,719 Speaker 16: can we have any of them stand up and start 1220 01:10:25,800 --> 01:10:28,080 Speaker 16: speaking out about this. You know, we live in one 1221 01:10:28,080 --> 01:10:31,160 Speaker 16: of the most conservative states in the country, Todd Tennessee, 1222 01:10:31,520 --> 01:10:34,000 Speaker 16: and I don't know that Tennessee has passed a requirement 1223 01:10:34,160 --> 01:10:36,000 Speaker 16: that requires everify. I don't think so. 1224 01:10:36,640 --> 01:10:39,400 Speaker 2: Well, we need to, because we've got to figure out 1225 01:10:39,439 --> 01:10:42,120 Speaker 2: who's who's here and who's not supposed to be and 1226 01:10:42,160 --> 01:10:43,599 Speaker 2: send them back to where they came from. 1227 01:10:43,640 --> 01:10:45,840 Speaker 16: They're all going back. That's what I like to say. 1228 01:10:45,880 --> 01:10:49,280 Speaker 2: So, ladies and gentlemen, would you like to see Don 1229 01:10:49,360 --> 01:10:52,880 Speaker 2: Lemon arrested and hauled off for his behavior?

All right, Welcome back, everybody. This 1293 01:14:28,640 --> 01:14:36,840 Speaker 2: is the Todd Stearns Radio Show. This item, Ah, here 1294 01:14:36,880 --> 01:14:42,439 Speaker 2: we go. Our good friend, Congressman John Rose is really 1295 01:14:42,720 --> 01:14:48,080 Speaker 2: fired up. So here's the problem, and this is all 1296 01:14:48,120 --> 01:14:54,000 Speaker 2: involving the Senate. Congressman Rose says that Senator John Thune 1297 01:14:54,040 --> 01:14:57,240 Speaker 2: will not bring the Save Act or hundreds of America 1298 01:14:57,320 --> 01:15:00,839 Speaker 2: First House bills up for a vote. But but Senator 1299 01:15:00,880 --> 01:15:04,000 Speaker 2: Thune has no problem supporting a provision that stuffs the 1300 01:15:04,040 --> 01:15:07,559 Speaker 2: pockets of senators with half million dollars or more of 1301 01:15:07,600 --> 01:15:11,559 Speaker 2: your tax money. Now, you might remember that a while 1302 01:15:11,640 --> 01:15:17,200 Speaker 2: back senators wanted to sue Jack Smith over the Arctic 1303 01:15:17,360 --> 01:15:21,960 Speaker 2: Frost phone records. And it was only senators nobody else. 1304 01:15:22,000 --> 01:15:25,160 Speaker 2: I mean, Smith collected so much data on so many people. 1305 01:15:25,880 --> 01:15:28,040 Speaker 2: But the Senate said, yeah, we don't care about the 1306 01:15:28,080 --> 01:15:31,880 Speaker 2: regular people. We don't care about the citizens, but senators, 1307 01:15:32,439 --> 01:15:37,519 Speaker 2: senators get to sue. So this reporting from the Hill, 1308 01:15:38,800 --> 01:15:41,320 Speaker 2: Emily Brooks says, the House trying to jam the Senate 1309 01:15:41,360 --> 01:15:43,960 Speaker 2: with a provision to repeal that law that will let 1310 01:15:44,080 --> 01:15:47,600 Speaker 2: senators sue for a half a million dollars. It's a 1311 01:15:47,600 --> 01:15:51,400 Speaker 2: pretty tricky last minute move and I love it, absolutely 1312 01:15:51,720 --> 01:15:57,760 Speaker 2: love it. And again destroy the filibuster. What is it 1313 01:15:57,880 --> 01:16:00,400 Speaker 2: going to take, ladies and gentlemen, what is is it 1314 01:16:00,560 --> 01:16:03,120 Speaker 2: going to take? All right, gotta take a quick break. 1315 01:16:04,040 --> 01:16:06,519 Speaker 2: Nine oh one two six zero five, nine two six. 1316 01:16:06,600 --> 01:16:23,519 Speaker 2: This is the Todd Stern Show, Live from. 1317 01:16:23,360 --> 01:16:28,000 Speaker 1: The Liberty University Studio in Memphis, Tennessee. It's America's favorite gun, 1318 01:16:28,040 --> 01:16:30,680 Speaker 1: total Bible clinging, deplorable America. 1319 01:16:30,920 --> 01:16:41,120 Speaker 18: That's this American. Todd starts, well there. 1320 01:16:41,240 --> 01:16:45,960 Speaker 2: All right, Well, Fox News is now reporting that the 1321 01:16:46,080 --> 01:16:51,400 Speaker 2: Justice Department is looking into other avenues after a magistrate 1322 01:16:51,560 --> 01:16:56,759 Speaker 2: judge refused to sign off on charges against Don Lemon. 1323 01:16:57,200 --> 01:17:01,000 Speaker 2: Don Lemon, of course, the disgraced CNN employee, the news 1324 01:17:01,080 --> 01:17:06,240 Speaker 2: anchor who stormed this beautiful church, beautiful Baptist church in 1325 01:17:06,479 --> 01:17:12,800 Speaker 2: Saint Paul, Minnesota on Sunday. Mister Lemon also harassed Christians 1326 01:17:12,960 --> 01:17:15,519 Speaker 2: and got into arguments with them as they were trying 1327 01:17:15,520 --> 01:17:19,800 Speaker 2: to escape the building. And this is just simply unacceptable. 1328 01:17:20,120 --> 01:17:24,240 Speaker 2: It is absolutely unacceptable, and God blessed those good hearted 1329 01:17:24,320 --> 01:17:29,799 Speaker 2: Christian people for having the patience of job. So earlier 1330 01:17:29,880 --> 01:17:33,360 Speaker 2: today we got word that just before the show started 1331 01:17:33,800 --> 01:17:38,320 Speaker 2: that two individuals had been arrested. Now a third has 1332 01:17:38,560 --> 01:17:42,800 Speaker 2: been arrested. Pam BONDI making those announcements just a little 1333 01:17:42,800 --> 01:17:46,840 Speaker 2: while ago. But here's my take on this. And I'm 1334 01:17:46,880 --> 01:17:49,640 Speaker 2: glad people are getting arrested. I am not gonna I 1335 01:17:49,680 --> 01:17:52,519 Speaker 2: am not going to belittle that at all. But the 1336 01:17:52,600 --> 01:17:55,800 Speaker 2: reality is over thirty people stormed into that church, and 1337 01:17:55,840 --> 01:17:58,800 Speaker 2: every single person who did should be arrested, and every 1338 01:17:58,840 --> 01:18:01,960 Speaker 2: single person should face the charges, every single one of them, 1339 01:18:01,960 --> 01:18:05,720 Speaker 2: including Don Lemon. And if we don't send a message here, 1340 01:18:05,720 --> 01:18:08,439 Speaker 2: and quite frankly, everybody needs hard jail time in a 1341 01:18:08,439 --> 01:18:11,360 Speaker 2: federal prison. And here's the reason why. If we allow 1342 01:18:11,439 --> 01:18:16,600 Speaker 2: this to go unchallenged, if we allow these people to 1343 01:18:16,720 --> 01:18:18,880 Speaker 2: go in and storm a church, they're going to do 1344 01:18:18,920 --> 01:18:21,040 Speaker 2: it next Sunday and the one after that and the 1345 01:18:21,040 --> 01:18:23,200 Speaker 2: one after that. So we've got to set a precedent 1346 01:18:23,280 --> 01:18:26,759 Speaker 2: here that if you do this, you go to jail, 1347 01:18:28,520 --> 01:18:30,880 Speaker 2: because we don't play that game here in the United 1348 01:18:30,880 --> 01:18:34,400 Speaker 2: States of America. We're not going to allow you to 1349 01:18:34,439 --> 01:18:39,400 Speaker 2: desecrate church houses in the name of the illegals. So 1350 01:18:39,439 --> 01:18:41,920 Speaker 2: we're taking your calls on that this hour. Do you 1351 01:18:42,080 --> 01:18:46,479 Speaker 2: believe that this one moment, the invasion of this church, 1352 01:18:47,000 --> 01:18:50,000 Speaker 2: should serve as the moment the line in the sand 1353 01:18:50,560 --> 01:18:54,599 Speaker 2: to finally play hardball and send these people to jail. 1354 01:18:55,000 --> 01:18:57,000 Speaker 2: I mean there are some out there like, well, you know, 1355 01:18:57,280 --> 01:19:01,439 Speaker 2: it's it's a church, and and people have a right 1356 01:19:01,520 --> 01:19:04,439 Speaker 2: to come in to the church. And no, they don't 1357 01:19:04,439 --> 01:19:07,920 Speaker 2: have a right to come in and desecrate the sanctuary 1358 01:19:08,000 --> 01:19:09,800 Speaker 2: and stop the services. They don't have a right to 1359 01:19:09,800 --> 01:19:16,639 Speaker 2: do that, no rights whatsoever. They say, Todd, what would 1360 01:19:16,720 --> 01:19:19,400 Speaker 2: Jesus do? Well, Jesus threw the money changers out of 1361 01:19:19,439 --> 01:19:22,240 Speaker 2: the temple. I've got no problem believing that he might 1362 01:19:22,280 --> 01:19:24,720 Speaker 2: do the same to these morons. But again, I'm not 1363 01:19:24,840 --> 01:19:27,200 Speaker 2: Jesus Christ, and I certainly don't speak for our Lord 1364 01:19:27,240 --> 01:19:31,120 Speaker 2: and Savior, but I'd like to think that Jesus would 1365 01:19:31,120 --> 01:19:33,200 Speaker 2: have given them the heave ho right out the front door. 1366 01:19:36,960 --> 01:19:40,439 Speaker 2: We'll keep you updated I suspect we will see more 1367 01:19:40,680 --> 01:19:45,280 Speaker 2: arrest in the coming hours and days, and I am 1368 01:19:45,360 --> 01:19:50,960 Speaker 2: glad that the Attorney General is immediately dealing with this situation. 1369 01:19:51,760 --> 01:19:54,160 Speaker 2: I was really afraid we were going to be two three, four, 1370 01:19:54,320 --> 01:19:57,759 Speaker 2: five months down the road and nobody was being arrested. 1371 01:19:58,240 --> 01:20:02,519 Speaker 2: So I'm glad, I'm glad this is happening. Nine oh 1372 01:20:02,600 --> 01:20:05,639 Speaker 2: one two six zero five nine two six hour telephone number. 1373 01:20:05,640 --> 01:20:10,080 Speaker 2: That's nine oh one two six zero five, nine to six. 1374 01:20:10,800 --> 01:20:14,040 Speaker 2: So earlier or last night, rather had an opportunity to 1375 01:20:14,080 --> 01:20:19,400 Speaker 2: talk to Glenn Jacob, who is the former former professional 1376 01:20:19,479 --> 01:20:26,200 Speaker 2: wrestler now the very popular county mayor in Knox County, Tennessee. 1377 01:20:26,320 --> 01:20:29,599 Speaker 2: Let's take a listen. Good to see you, mister mayor. 1378 01:20:30,120 --> 01:20:33,200 Speaker 2: You know, this is just really breathtaking to see the 1379 01:20:33,240 --> 01:20:36,360 Speaker 2: magnitude of the fraud coming out out of Minnesota. 1380 01:20:36,400 --> 01:20:38,080 Speaker 11: Your reaction, well. 1381 01:20:37,960 --> 01:20:40,760 Speaker 20: Thanks having me on Todd. First of all, to me, 1382 01:20:41,240 --> 01:20:44,040 Speaker 20: it's not really a surprise. I mean, this is, unfortunately 1383 01:20:44,200 --> 01:20:48,360 Speaker 20: just how the system works. When we think about immigration, 1384 01:20:48,800 --> 01:20:51,639 Speaker 20: one of the most important aspects of that is the 1385 01:20:51,640 --> 01:20:55,719 Speaker 20: welfare system. And you know, this magnet that attracts people 1386 01:20:56,040 --> 01:20:58,479 Speaker 20: who are just want to live off the system and 1387 01:20:58,600 --> 01:21:01,639 Speaker 20: want to live off of, as miss surely said, the 1388 01:21:01,680 --> 01:21:06,200 Speaker 20: efforts of hard working Americans. So it's terrible, but it 1389 01:21:06,240 --> 01:21:10,320 Speaker 20: shouldn't really come as a surprise anyway, because unfortunately all 1390 01:21:10,439 --> 01:21:14,640 Speaker 20: welfare systems, this is where they tend to go with 1391 01:21:14,720 --> 01:21:18,200 Speaker 20: the fraud and just the fact that it ends up 1392 01:21:18,360 --> 01:21:22,679 Speaker 20: becoming so large and becoming such a massive percentage of 1393 01:21:23,080 --> 01:21:27,639 Speaker 20: budgets overall, that these frauds sometimes just becomes almost arounding 1394 01:21:27,640 --> 01:21:30,920 Speaker 20: there and that that's unacceptable obviously, but nevertheless that's the case. 1395 01:21:31,439 --> 01:21:33,840 Speaker 2: You know, I'm curious because this is an issue that's 1396 01:21:33,840 --> 01:21:37,360 Speaker 2: impacting just about every state in the nation, the number 1397 01:21:37,400 --> 01:21:40,599 Speaker 2: of illegals, and especially the numbers that were flown into 1398 01:21:40,760 --> 01:21:44,320 Speaker 2: Tennessee in the dark of night during the last administration. 1399 01:21:45,200 --> 01:21:48,960 Speaker 2: You've got a state representative right out of the national 1400 01:21:49,040 --> 01:21:54,160 Speaker 2: area calling ICE agents KKK and comparing them to some 1401 01:21:54,200 --> 01:21:57,280 Speaker 2: of the most awful people. How big of a deal 1402 01:21:57,360 --> 01:21:59,600 Speaker 2: is that in the volunteer state. 1403 01:22:00,240 --> 01:22:01,800 Speaker 11: Well, I think we do a good job here. 1404 01:22:02,560 --> 01:22:04,759 Speaker 20: We've been at two eight seven g County, which means 1405 01:22:04,800 --> 01:22:09,840 Speaker 20: that our law enforcement county is deputized by ICE. So 1406 01:22:10,040 --> 01:22:12,479 Speaker 20: when someone is picked up, they are allowed to check 1407 01:22:12,520 --> 01:22:14,759 Speaker 20: their immigration status, and if they are a legal immigrants, 1408 01:22:15,160 --> 01:22:18,479 Speaker 20: they are held for processing by eyes. In many cases 1409 01:22:18,520 --> 01:22:21,519 Speaker 20: then you find that there are more charges. And we've 1410 01:22:21,560 --> 01:22:25,720 Speaker 20: also had a couple incidents where illegal immigrants have been 1411 01:22:25,760 --> 01:22:29,080 Speaker 20: driving without a license, without insurance and involved in accidents. 1412 01:22:29,120 --> 01:22:30,639 Speaker 11: People have died as a result of that. 1413 01:22:31,040 --> 01:22:34,800 Speaker 20: So that's problem as well, you know, But our legislature 1414 01:22:34,800 --> 01:22:38,879 Speaker 20: has been working at the White House on comprehensive immigration reform. 1415 01:22:39,200 --> 01:22:41,080 Speaker 20: We're the first state in the nation to do that, 1416 01:22:41,120 --> 01:22:42,320 Speaker 20: so we take it very seriously. 1417 01:22:42,320 --> 01:22:46,040 Speaker 2: Here back to Minnesota for just a moment, when you 1418 01:22:46,080 --> 01:22:49,040 Speaker 2: look at what's happening in Minneapolis, where the mayor of 1419 01:22:49,200 --> 01:22:53,680 Speaker 2: that city, a major American city, telling people basically to 1420 01:22:53,720 --> 01:22:57,200 Speaker 2: get in the faces of ICE agents to try to 1421 01:22:57,280 --> 01:23:02,040 Speaker 2: somehow sabotage their efforts. I'm just curious. You're you're a lawmaker, 1422 01:23:02,360 --> 01:23:08,120 Speaker 2: your reaction to what's happening there in Minnesota with elected leadership. 1423 01:23:08,120 --> 01:23:10,920 Speaker 11: It's really foreign to me. These sort of things don't 1424 01:23:10,960 --> 01:23:13,600 Speaker 11: happen in East Tennessee. So when I watched TV and 1425 01:23:13,640 --> 01:23:16,599 Speaker 11: I see this and like, is this America that I'm 1426 01:23:16,600 --> 01:23:17,120 Speaker 11: looking at? 1427 01:23:17,600 --> 01:23:20,320 Speaker 20: But it just shows you that state and local government 1428 01:23:20,400 --> 01:23:24,800 Speaker 20: really do matter, you know, And I feel horrible for 1429 01:23:25,120 --> 01:23:28,040 Speaker 20: many of the people in Minneapolis and Minnesota because this 1430 01:23:28,080 --> 01:23:30,200 Speaker 20: is going on, you know. But at the same time, 1431 01:23:30,720 --> 01:23:33,680 Speaker 20: you know, this is in many cases almost what you 1432 01:23:33,840 --> 01:23:36,240 Speaker 20: voted for when you put people in power like that, 1433 01:23:36,439 --> 01:23:39,160 Speaker 20: and we just don't have that here in East Tennessee, 1434 01:23:39,200 --> 01:23:42,200 Speaker 20: where we just wouldn't tolerate it. Our people here wouldn't 1435 01:23:42,240 --> 01:23:46,479 Speaker 20: tolerate it. So it's incredibly unfortunate. But again for me, 1436 01:23:46,520 --> 01:23:50,640 Speaker 20: it's almost alien because I could never envision anything like 1437 01:23:50,720 --> 01:23:54,240 Speaker 20: that Sheriff's maangler here. There's no way that that would 1438 01:23:54,320 --> 01:23:58,080 Speaker 20: happen in Knox County. Uh So that's it's really a 1439 01:23:58,120 --> 01:24:01,479 Speaker 20: testament to good local leader and for the rest of 1440 01:24:01,479 --> 01:24:03,360 Speaker 20: the country, you know, you should be looking at your 1441 01:24:03,360 --> 01:24:06,360 Speaker 20: state and local leadership and thinking yourselves, you know, are 1442 01:24:06,400 --> 01:24:09,200 Speaker 20: these the people that we want running things? Because when 1443 01:24:09,240 --> 01:24:11,840 Speaker 20: you have the wrong people in positions of authority, this 1444 01:24:11,960 --> 01:24:12,559 Speaker 20: is what you get. 1445 01:24:12,840 --> 01:24:14,800 Speaker 2: Well, and I have to imagine a Dox County. You 1446 01:24:14,840 --> 01:24:18,519 Speaker 2: wouldn't have folks merging into church services and disrupting Sunday worship. 1447 01:24:18,560 --> 01:24:22,040 Speaker 20: Absolutely not, absolutely not, And that was just you know, 1448 01:24:22,320 --> 01:24:26,040 Speaker 20: these people obviously they're just they're professional agitators. They get 1449 01:24:26,040 --> 01:24:29,439 Speaker 20: outraged at everything. You know, as you said, you look 1450 01:24:29,479 --> 01:24:34,639 Speaker 20: what happened in the Obama administration. Now Trump is doing 1451 01:24:35,560 --> 01:24:38,960 Speaker 20: basically the same thing, even not to that same extent. Now, 1452 01:24:38,960 --> 01:24:42,080 Speaker 20: all of a sudden, you're bad or evil because it's Trump, 1453 01:24:42,240 --> 01:24:43,840 Speaker 20: you know, And that's what it all comes down to. 1454 01:24:44,280 --> 01:24:46,400 Speaker 11: I hate Republicans. I hate Donald Trump. 1455 01:24:46,640 --> 01:24:50,080 Speaker 20: Therefore I can infringe on someone's right to go to 1456 01:24:50,720 --> 01:24:55,280 Speaker 20: a church service and to feel safe and to worship 1457 01:24:55,320 --> 01:24:57,000 Speaker 20: the Lord in a peaceful way. 1458 01:24:57,400 --> 01:24:58,680 Speaker 11: Just completely unacceptable. 1459 01:24:58,720 --> 01:25:01,120 Speaker 20: And those people should be ashamed of They won't be, 1460 01:25:01,479 --> 01:25:03,280 Speaker 20: but they should be saying to them selves for doing that. 1461 01:25:04,280 --> 01:25:06,720 Speaker 2: All right. That was Knox County Mayor Glenn Jacobs. Like 1462 01:25:06,800 --> 01:25:08,680 Speaker 2: that guy. You know, he's being talked about as a 1463 01:25:08,720 --> 01:25:12,000 Speaker 2: possible replacement for Senator Marshall Blackburn if she is elected 1464 01:25:12,080 --> 01:25:16,640 Speaker 2: governor in Tennessee, and he is certainly a pro Trump conservative. 1465 01:25:16,920 --> 01:25:19,080 Speaker 2: All right, let's go to the phones here. Well, say 1466 01:25:19,080 --> 01:25:23,439 Speaker 2: hello to Ray and the Florida WOCA are great affiliate 1467 01:25:23,520 --> 01:25:25,960 Speaker 2: down there. Hi, Ray, what's on your mind today? 1468 01:25:26,360 --> 01:25:30,639 Speaker 12: Well, I'm a little concerned if one of those church 1469 01:25:30,720 --> 01:25:36,160 Speaker 12: goers was a concealed weapon carrier and they started shooting people, 1470 01:25:36,240 --> 01:25:39,960 Speaker 12: busting in out of fear. Where would we be today 1471 01:25:40,000 --> 01:25:45,000 Speaker 12: on this It's madness. I'd also like to make another comment. 1472 01:25:46,200 --> 01:25:46,839 Speaker 11: The sheriff. 1473 01:25:47,479 --> 01:25:50,360 Speaker 12: Probably one of the most important votes you can ever 1474 01:25:50,439 --> 01:25:54,200 Speaker 12: make in your life is your local sheriff. And these 1475 01:25:54,520 --> 01:25:58,960 Speaker 12: these rogue judges that are refusing to prosecute some of 1476 01:25:58,960 --> 01:26:01,880 Speaker 12: these people. The upside to all of this is they're 1477 01:26:01,920 --> 01:26:06,519 Speaker 12: outing themselves as people that have no business being a judge. 1478 01:26:07,000 --> 01:26:10,200 Speaker 12: So again, at some point they're going to bust in 1479 01:26:10,240 --> 01:26:13,519 Speaker 12: on somebody and they're going to get hurt, and then 1480 01:26:13,560 --> 01:26:14,360 Speaker 12: what do we do with that? 1481 01:26:16,040 --> 01:26:19,320 Speaker 2: You know, it's a yeah, no, Ray, this is actually 1482 01:26:19,400 --> 01:26:23,559 Speaker 2: a really good point you're bringing up because those church members. Look, 1483 01:26:23,720 --> 01:26:25,760 Speaker 2: just remember it was it a couple of months back, 1484 01:26:25,840 --> 01:26:28,760 Speaker 2: if maybe longer than that, you had the shooting at 1485 01:26:28,760 --> 01:26:31,960 Speaker 2: the Catholic church and school there in Saint Paul. So 1486 01:26:32,800 --> 01:26:35,639 Speaker 2: with that still freshened the minds of people, you see 1487 01:26:35,640 --> 01:26:39,200 Speaker 2: a big mob just barging in, storming, and they really 1488 01:26:39,240 --> 01:26:41,240 Speaker 2: stormed into the church. You can see it on the video. 1489 01:26:42,080 --> 01:26:45,920 Speaker 2: I'm I'm just surprised nobody there was packing heat. 1490 01:26:46,320 --> 01:26:47,720 Speaker 12: I would surprise myself. 1491 01:26:48,720 --> 01:26:52,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, but it's a great point you raise, and you 1492 01:26:52,360 --> 01:26:56,000 Speaker 2: know how the media would immediately spin it and it 1493 01:26:56,040 --> 01:26:58,799 Speaker 2: would not be in favor of the innocent church victims. 1494 01:26:58,800 --> 01:27:01,480 Speaker 2: They would become the enemy, the bad guys. 1495 01:27:02,160 --> 01:27:05,400 Speaker 12: Yeah, yeah, it's a sad state of affairs. People need 1496 01:27:05,439 --> 01:27:09,400 Speaker 12: to understand that this is not left against right. We're 1497 01:27:09,439 --> 01:27:14,479 Speaker 12: dealing with good versus evil, and once that is clearly made, 1498 01:27:14,920 --> 01:27:18,720 Speaker 12: you know this is what we're dealing with. So you 1499 01:27:18,800 --> 01:27:21,320 Speaker 12: got to pick aside. This is for all the marbles 1500 01:27:21,360 --> 01:27:25,720 Speaker 12: the way technology is today a perfect example, Greenland no 1501 01:27:25,840 --> 01:27:29,520 Speaker 12: reason to have done what Trump had done until technology 1502 01:27:29,560 --> 01:27:32,280 Speaker 12: got to the point where we were forced into this position. 1503 01:27:33,000 --> 01:27:36,000 Speaker 12: So you know, we're moving into a new world and 1504 01:27:36,240 --> 01:27:38,160 Speaker 12: there's going to be a lot of changes. People got 1505 01:27:38,200 --> 01:27:41,599 Speaker 12: to wake up and pick aside. You want your freedom 1506 01:27:41,840 --> 01:27:44,120 Speaker 12: or would you rather have a nanty state? Take care 1507 01:27:44,160 --> 01:27:44,360 Speaker 12: of you. 1508 01:27:45,600 --> 01:27:49,040 Speaker 2: Ray, excellent points.

Ray is right. 1511 01:27:55,680 --> 01:27:59,040 Speaker 2: It is. It's a dangerous game that the left is playing, 1512 01:27:59,640 --> 01:28:01,960 Speaker 2: and one day they're going to barge in on the 1513 01:28:02,000 --> 01:28:05,200 Speaker 2: wrong people and there will be a price to pay 1514 01:28:05,200 --> 01:28:21,439 Speaker 2: for that. This is the Todd Stern Show. Welcome back 1515 01:28:21,439 --> 01:28:26,479 Speaker 2: to everybody. Oh my word, this is I've been getting 1516 01:28:26,520 --> 01:28:30,000 Speaker 2: a lot of text messages and people in these parts 1517 01:28:30,040 --> 01:28:33,559 Speaker 2: are freaking out. They're freaking out over this snowstorm. We 1518 01:28:33,600 --> 01:28:37,599 Speaker 2: have gone from expecting twenty four inches of snow down 1519 01:28:37,640 --> 01:28:41,920 Speaker 2: to possibly three inches if that. But people are still 1520 01:28:41,960 --> 01:28:44,880 Speaker 2: freaking out and they're saying it's going to be the 1521 01:28:44,920 --> 01:28:48,400 Speaker 2: snow apocalypse. Dylan. I'm looking at a photograph. A gentleman 1522 01:28:48,720 --> 01:28:52,360 Speaker 2: runs an organization called Blackwood News, and he always gets 1523 01:28:52,400 --> 01:28:56,640 Speaker 2: the good, juicy stories. He snapped a photograph of a 1524 01:28:56,680 --> 01:29:01,640 Speaker 2: woman at a supermarket and she's got one thing in 1525 01:29:01,680 --> 01:29:04,880 Speaker 2: her grocery cart. I'm trying to figure out how many 1526 01:29:05,200 --> 01:29:07,360 Speaker 2: loaves of bread she has counting. 1527 01:29:07,840 --> 01:29:10,960 Speaker 5: Were you so there's a lot of loaves of bread. 1528 01:29:11,040 --> 01:29:12,640 Speaker 5: It's all white bread. By the way, we have to 1529 01:29:12,720 --> 01:29:14,920 Speaker 5: be specific here. It looks like white bread. 1530 01:29:14,960 --> 01:29:16,920 Speaker 2: Are you sure it's white bread? Looks you see? I 1531 01:29:16,920 --> 01:29:19,559 Speaker 2: thought it was wheat, But it's so you're saying it's wet. 1532 01:29:19,600 --> 01:29:21,200 Speaker 5: That would be healthier, I guess, But. 1533 01:29:24,120 --> 01:29:29,120 Speaker 2: At least twenty at least twenty loaves of bread. Who 1534 01:29:29,240 --> 01:29:33,120 Speaker 2: is this woman feeding? That's a lot of toast. 1535 01:29:33,960 --> 01:29:37,759 Speaker 5: You're telling me she's gonna eat all this bread within 1536 01:29:37,920 --> 01:29:39,120 Speaker 5: like three or four days. 1537 01:29:39,120 --> 01:29:43,880 Speaker 2: Maybe unbelievable.

During the time 1620 01:33:59,800 --> 01:34:03,479 Speaker 2: of the search, Trump had accused the Biden administration of 1621 01:34:03,600 --> 01:34:07,240 Speaker 2: using Third World tactics. Well, that may be an understatement 1622 01:34:07,360 --> 01:34:14,760 Speaker 2: coming from the president. So there you go, just more 1623 01:34:14,840 --> 01:34:17,080 Speaker 2: nuggets coming out.

But it's 1625 01:34:20,000 --> 01:34:24,479 Speaker 2: just really really shocking. The President said that, of course, 1626 01:34:24,560 --> 01:34:26,639 Speaker 2: we first learned about all of this by the President 1627 01:34:26,640 --> 01:34:29,599 Speaker 2: when he announced at the rally that they had targeted 1628 01:34:29,640 --> 01:34:33,080 Speaker 2: his wife's closet drawers and did a deep and ugly 1629 01:34:33,160 --> 01:34:37,040 Speaker 2: search of Baron's room when Baron was just sixteen years old. 1630 01:34:37,080 --> 01:34:41,120 Speaker 2: That is not right, ladies and gentlemen.

Republicans 1645 01:35:35,439 --> 01:35:40,160 Speaker 4: aren't even talking about it. This is a complete breakdown 1646 01:35:40,439 --> 01:35:44,200 Speaker 4: of society and it is a violation of those folks 1647 01:35:44,280 --> 01:35:47,400 Speaker 4: constitutional right. They don't have a first Amendment right to 1648 01:35:47,479 --> 01:35:49,160 Speaker 4: come in. You know, you don't have a First Amendment 1649 01:35:49,280 --> 01:35:52,000 Speaker 4: right to yell fire and a crowded theater. Nor do 1650 01:35:52,040 --> 01:35:55,200 Speaker 4: you have the ability to go into a church service 1651 01:35:55,479 --> 01:35:58,400 Speaker 4: and upset it.

Oh wow, Congressman. The good 1657 01:36:17,840 --> 01:36:21,160 Speaker 2: news now we understand at least three of those people, 1658 01:36:21,200 --> 01:36:25,840 Speaker 2: including one of the organizers, have been arrested by the 1659 01:36:26,400 --> 01:36:29,840 Speaker 2: by law enforcement. Federal officers were also are getting worried 1660 01:36:29,880 --> 01:36:32,720 Speaker 2: that maybe Don Lemon that were trying to charge him, 1661 01:36:32,720 --> 01:36:35,839 Speaker 2: but a federal magistrate won't sign off on those charges. 1662 01:36:37,479 --> 01:36:41,639 Speaker 4: That doesn't surprise me. Our federal courts are out of whack. 1663 01:36:41,720 --> 01:36:43,920 Speaker 4: And I keep and I'm going to blame the evangelical 1664 01:36:44,000 --> 01:36:48,960 Speaker 4: Christian community when y'all go to the polls, sixty percent 1665 01:36:49,000 --> 01:36:52,720 Speaker 4: of you stay home for whatever badgum reason. We're going 1666 01:36:52,800 --> 01:36:55,599 Speaker 4: to lose our country. And I've said this many times. 1667 01:36:56,240 --> 01:36:59,720 Speaker 4: You know, the Stalin said they're going to sell sporopey 1668 01:36:59,760 --> 01:37:03,679 Speaker 4: hang that we hang ourselves with, and that's exactly what's happening. 1669 01:37:03,680 --> 01:37:05,679 Speaker 4: We've got to get some guts. Preachers got to start 1670 01:37:05,680 --> 01:37:08,320 Speaker 4: preaching the gospel. People got to start standing up for 1671 01:37:08,360 --> 01:37:10,280 Speaker 4: our belief. You don't have to be angry about it, 1672 01:37:10,600 --> 01:37:13,519 Speaker 4: but Jesus got angry. He didn't ask him to leave 1673 01:37:14,400 --> 01:37:16,560 Speaker 4: the money changers to leave the temple. That's gonna He 1674 01:37:16,680 --> 01:37:19,320 Speaker 4: threw them out. And I think we better start paying 1675 01:37:19,320 --> 01:37:21,200 Speaker 4: attention to what's going on because one day they're going 1676 01:37:21,280 --> 01:37:23,080 Speaker 4: to knock on that door and they're going to have 1677 01:37:23,080 --> 01:37:25,320 Speaker 4: a chain on it, just like they did during COVID. 1678 01:37:25,680 --> 01:37:28,120 Speaker 4: That should have been a trial run for everybody. They 1679 01:37:28,160 --> 01:37:31,280 Speaker 4: shut down the Jews, they shut down the Christians, and 1680 01:37:31,360 --> 01:37:34,720 Speaker 4: the big box stores could stay open and all these 1681 01:37:34,760 --> 01:37:37,599 Speaker 4: other liberal groups. Pelosi could go get her hair cut, 1682 01:37:37,720 --> 01:37:43,160 Speaker 4: and the governor of California, he was having big meetings 1683 01:37:43,200 --> 01:37:46,840 Speaker 4: and big, big meals with people and nobody's wearing a 1684 01:37:46,880 --> 01:37:50,479 Speaker 4: dad's goun mask. Look, we got to start standing up, 1685 01:37:50,560 --> 01:37:52,240 Speaker 4: and we got to stand up for what's right, and 1686 01:37:52,280 --> 01:37:54,400 Speaker 4: we got to get to the polls this year because 1687 01:37:54,720 --> 01:37:58,639 Speaker 4: if we lose that midterm, it's over. It is over. 1688 01:37:58,720 --> 01:38:02,920 Speaker 4: It's not just Trump getting impeach, they will. I heard 1689 01:38:04,240 --> 01:38:07,320 Speaker 4: Schumer today in a quote. He was saying that they're 1690 01:38:07,320 --> 01:38:09,320 Speaker 4: going to restore the funding to all those n g 1691 01:38:09,479 --> 01:38:11,640 Speaker 4: o s, all those groups that are just stealing that 1692 01:38:11,760 --> 01:38:15,439 Speaker 4: money out of Minnesota. Now, calf Minnesota is a tip 1693 01:38:15,479 --> 01:38:18,000 Speaker 4: of the iceberg. It is a tip of the iceberg. 1694 01:38:18,000 --> 01:38:21,120 Speaker 4: You put California in that mix and it's over and 1695 01:38:21,360 --> 01:38:24,280 Speaker 4: politicians in Washington, and I'm afraid both parties are getting 1696 01:38:24,320 --> 01:38:26,760 Speaker 4: fat off of it. We got to start standing up. 1697 01:38:27,320 --> 01:38:29,760 Speaker 2: I just don't get what the Senate is doing here. 1698 01:38:29,960 --> 01:38:33,560 Speaker 2: Why are they so adverse to blowing up the filibuster 1699 01:38:33,680 --> 01:38:36,400 Speaker 2: because that's exactly what the Democrats are going to do 1700 01:38:36,520 --> 01:38:39,479 Speaker 2: Congress when when when they retake control and we have 1701 01:38:39,600 --> 01:38:42,639 Speaker 2: got to have voter ID laws out there. 1702 01:38:43,240 --> 01:38:48,240 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's noble nobility.

Just 1727 01:40:01,120 --> 01:40:04,719 Speaker 4: last week we voted to this terrible bill. I didn't 1728 01:40:04,800 --> 01:40:07,840 Speaker 4: vote for it. There's over a billion dollars in this 1729 01:40:08,000 --> 01:40:12,799 Speaker 4: thing for funding for accounts the president, President Trump zeroed 1730 01:40:12,800 --> 01:40:15,960 Speaker 4: out and I asked our leadership about it.

Eli Crane had amendments to take it out. 1733 01:40:22,240 --> 01:40:24,640 Speaker 4: And no, and we didn't get enough support out of 1734 01:40:24,640 --> 01:40:28,559 Speaker 4: the Republican Party that had centered President Trump. Three hundred million. 1735 01:40:29,040 --> 01:40:32,479 Speaker 4: And it goes into these hundreds of NGOs. We don't 1736 01:40:32,560 --> 01:40:35,599 Speaker 4: know what they're doing, and we just as I wrote 1737 01:40:35,600 --> 01:40:38,160 Speaker 4: a letter to President Trump saying, stop the mg O, 1738 01:40:38,360 --> 01:40:41,519 Speaker 4: stop every dagne one of them, cancel them, and let's 1739 01:40:41,560 --> 01:40:44,000 Speaker 4: start over.

The dollar bill will 1744 01:40:57,840 --> 01:41:01,360 Speaker 4: be worth nothing that the it's getting close to that 1745 01:41:01,439 --> 01:41:06,000 Speaker 4: if you excrapolated over a couple of decades. But you know, 1746 01:41:06,240 --> 01:41:09,040 Speaker 4: we're going to lose everything. God, and I'm not being 1747 01:41:09,280 --> 01:41:12,120 Speaker 4: over zealous about that. We're thirty eight trillion in debt. 1748 01:41:12,760 --> 01:41:16,240 Speaker 4: That dollar just keeps getting divested and divested, and it's 1749 01:41:16,240 --> 01:41:17,559 Speaker 4: going to be worth the less and less. 1750 01:41:17,680 --> 01:41:20,000 Speaker 2: You know, there's a lot of polling data out there 1751 01:41:20,200 --> 01:41:22,320 Speaker 2: that suggests things are not going to go well for 1752 01:41:22,400 --> 01:41:26,240 Speaker 2: the Republicans in the midterm. What is it going to 1753 01:41:26,320 --> 01:41:28,439 Speaker 2: take to I mean, if that is true, what is 1754 01:41:28,479 --> 01:41:31,520 Speaker 2: it going to take to reverse that trend? 1755 01:41:33,680 --> 01:41:37,719 Speaker 4: More than twelve percent of the population voting and holding 1756 01:41:37,800 --> 01:41:40,880 Speaker 4: us accountable and quit electing these week need Republicans for it, 1757 01:41:41,040 --> 01:41:43,080 Speaker 4: just enforcing them. I think some of them will do 1758 01:41:43,160 --> 01:41:46,120 Speaker 4: what's right. I just don't know what right is because 1759 01:41:46,280 --> 01:41:48,439 Speaker 4: they're told by leadership, well, this is a good bill. 1760 01:41:48,520 --> 01:41:51,120 Speaker 4: We need this, you know, and I guarantee you Trump 1761 01:41:51,120 --> 01:41:53,920 Speaker 4: didn't know there's a billion dollars in that last funding 1762 01:41:53,960 --> 01:41:56,240 Speaker 4: bill of things that he zeroed out. I mean, that's 1763 01:41:56,280 --> 01:41:59,280 Speaker 4: an insult to him. It's an insult to that eighty 1764 01:41:59,360 --> 01:42:03,240 Speaker 4: some odd and Americans that elected him. So I think 1765 01:42:03,320 --> 01:42:05,360 Speaker 4: there's a lot of stuff going on there, Todd and 1766 01:42:05,400 --> 01:42:06,719 Speaker 4: we better start paying attention. 1767 01:42:07,160 --> 01:42:11,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm with you. That forty percent number, just that's insane. 1768 01:42:11,360 --> 01:42:13,439 Speaker 2: And I don't know what is it going to take. 1769 01:42:13,600 --> 01:42:15,479 Speaker 2: I don't know what it is going to take to 1770 01:42:15,520 --> 01:42:16,560 Speaker 2: get Christian. 1771 01:42:17,720 --> 01:42:20,599 Speaker 4: Going to any big church in the South, fount out 1772 01:42:20,680 --> 01:42:23,920 Speaker 4: ten people, and six of them are not going to vote, 1773 01:42:25,520 --> 01:42:27,639 Speaker 4: and if they do, they'll low for president and they'll 1774 01:42:27,680 --> 01:42:30,920 Speaker 4: stop there.

Happy to have you with us today. 1853 01:46:27,160 --> 01:46:34,759 Speaker 2: By the way, Chip Roy is currently grilling Jack Smith 1854 01:46:35,120 --> 01:46:37,880 Speaker 2: during this House Judiciary Committee and Roy says, hey, wait 1855 01:46:37,880 --> 01:46:40,120 Speaker 2: a second, I want to know something. Am I on 1856 01:46:40,160 --> 01:46:43,960 Speaker 2: the list? Did you target my records and subpoena my 1857 01:46:44,600 --> 01:46:50,320 Speaker 2: phone records? And Jack Smith said yes, My understanding is 1858 01:46:50,360 --> 01:46:55,160 Speaker 2: your records were subpoenaed by prosecutors before I became special counsel. Well, 1859 01:46:55,240 --> 01:46:58,680 Speaker 2: Chip Roy said, we called at and T and we 1860 01:46:58,800 --> 01:47:01,559 Speaker 2: learned they were given to the Department of Justice because 1861 01:47:02,040 --> 01:47:05,960 Speaker 2: I'd been in communication with Scott Perry. He says, it's 1862 01:47:06,000 --> 01:47:09,720 Speaker 2: far more concerning that you are clearly targeting American citizens 1863 01:47:10,160 --> 01:47:16,760 Speaker 2: for merely being conservative or supporting the president. Roy went 1864 01:47:16,800 --> 01:47:19,200 Speaker 2: on to say that a federal judge stated a prosecutor 1865 01:47:19,360 --> 01:47:22,040 Speaker 2: continues to sign his name in court filings after a 1866 01:47:22,040 --> 01:47:28,679 Speaker 2: disqualification order should face discipline or disbarment. And that's true. 1867 01:47:28,760 --> 01:47:32,680 Speaker 2: So again, what's going to happen as a result of 1868 01:47:32,720 --> 01:47:36,639 Speaker 2: all of this great hearings, no doubt about it, wall 1869 01:47:36,680 --> 01:47:44,559 Speaker 2: to wall hearings, powerful stuff, shucking, shocking testimony. But what 1870 01:47:44,600 --> 01:47:47,040 Speaker 2: are they going to do about it? Is Jack Smith 1871 01:47:47,120 --> 01:47:51,479 Speaker 2: going to jail? I don't think so. So now my 1872 01:47:51,600 --> 01:47:54,040 Speaker 2: question is, okay, well, how much money are we spending 1873 01:47:54,080 --> 01:47:57,680 Speaker 2: on all of this? I mean, are you okay with 1874 01:47:57,800 --> 01:48:02,160 Speaker 2: your your tax dollars being wondered? Because that ultimately is 1875 01:48:02,200 --> 01:48:06,679 Speaker 2: what's happening with all of these hearings going back years, years, 1876 01:48:06,760 --> 01:48:09,360 Speaker 2: going all the way back to the Barack Cusin Obama 1877 01:48:09,439 --> 01:48:17,160 Speaker 2: administration years, folks, and nothing was ever done.

They drum something up. 1943 01:51:40,439 --> 01:51:42,360 Speaker 22: Like I say, they want to rile their base up 1944 01:51:42,479 --> 01:51:45,679 Speaker 22: so they can get sympathy and that drops the voter 1945 01:51:45,840 --> 01:51:49,559 Speaker 22: out when they have misinformation. But good on Governor Lee 1946 01:51:49,880 --> 01:51:52,160 Speaker 22: for allowing them to come in and saying. 1947 01:51:51,920 --> 01:51:53,280 Speaker 23: We need help in Memphis. 1948 01:51:53,680 --> 01:51:55,960 Speaker 22: You know, like you said, you can go down Bill 1949 01:51:56,040 --> 01:51:59,679 Speaker 22: Street now and how many unacompany children have they found 1950 01:51:59,680 --> 01:52:02,760 Speaker 22: going and to get these illegals who have committed crimes. Now, 1951 01:52:02,800 --> 01:52:05,439 Speaker 22: these are people who are the worst of the worst, 1952 01:52:05,960 --> 01:52:09,280 Speaker 22: and the whole goal and what we're doing with this 1953 01:52:09,479 --> 01:52:13,120 Speaker 22: homeland appropriation is we need to find out where these 1954 01:52:13,160 --> 01:52:16,280 Speaker 22: children are. And when you don't know, we don't know 1955 01:52:16,360 --> 01:52:18,760 Speaker 22: what those little babies are going for either.
