What does the Trump administration, what is it 177 00:08:27,560 --> 00:08:32,000 Speaker 12: doing to actually help people in Venezuela understand that they 178 00:08:32,040 --> 00:08:34,560 Speaker 12: will be secure throughout this transition. 179 00:08:34,960 --> 00:08:38,360 Speaker 4: I think the fact that this president actually followed through 180 00:08:38,520 --> 00:08:41,600 Speaker 4: on the long held promise of the United States of America, 181 00:08:41,840 --> 00:08:46,439 Speaker 4: the bipartisan promise to take down the illegitimate Maduro regime, 182 00:08:46,760 --> 00:08:50,600 Speaker 4: should give assurance to the Venezuelan people and also Venezuelan 183 00:08:50,640 --> 00:08:54,000 Speaker 4: Americans who fled this communist regime for a better life 184 00:08:54,000 --> 00:08:56,200 Speaker 4: here at home, that this is a president who is 185 00:08:56,240 --> 00:09:00,760 Speaker 4: serious about taking down illegitimate regimes and who is also 186 00:09:00,800 --> 00:09:04,319 Speaker 4: serious about securing the security of the United States of America, 187 00:09:04,440 --> 00:09:07,720 Speaker 4: including the Venezuelan American people. And I would just add 188 00:09:07,800 --> 00:09:10,480 Speaker 4: that this is something that not just Republicans and President 189 00:09:10,480 --> 00:09:12,880 Speaker 4: Trump have talked about for a very long time, but 190 00:09:13,120 --> 00:09:16,000 Speaker 4: it is also something that Democrats have advocated for. 191 00:09:16,040 --> 00:09:18,840 Speaker 5: In twenty twenty, Chuck Schumer said that. 192 00:09:20,480 --> 00:09:22,640 Speaker 4: At the time President Trump had not brought an end 193 00:09:22,640 --> 00:09:25,680 Speaker 4: to the Maduro regime. The Maduro regime is more powerful 194 00:09:25,720 --> 00:09:27,800 Speaker 4: today and more in trench today than it was when 195 00:09:27,800 --> 00:09:30,600 Speaker 4: the president began. Now you hear Chuck Schumer out there 196 00:09:30,600 --> 00:09:33,600 Speaker 4: saying this is reckless. The American people and the Venezuelan 197 00:09:33,640 --> 00:09:35,720 Speaker 4: people should be in fear. But this is something that 198 00:09:35,800 --> 00:09:39,400 Speaker 4: Chuck Schumer has long advocated for Senator Chris van Holland. 199 00:09:39,520 --> 00:09:42,960 Speaker 4: Same thing had said that the United States is going 200 00:09:42,960 --> 00:09:45,720 Speaker 4: to use its leverage and influence to push for negotiations 201 00:09:45,760 --> 00:09:48,480 Speaker 4: to transition to the truly elected leader. This was under 202 00:09:48,720 --> 00:09:51,720 Speaker 4: President Biden. We know Maduro and his cronies don't want 203 00:09:51,760 --> 00:09:54,080 Speaker 4: to go quietly into the night. The US needs to 204 00:09:54,120 --> 00:09:57,600 Speaker 4: work to ratchet up the pressure now. Senator Holland says 205 00:09:57,600 --> 00:10:00,120 Speaker 4: it's an illegal act of war to get rid of 206 00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:03,080 Speaker 4: of Nicholas Maduro. So the hypocrisy is really astounding here, 207 00:10:03,080 --> 00:10:05,160 Speaker 4: and thank you for giving me an opportunity to point 208 00:10:05,160 --> 00:10:06,839 Speaker 4: it out with Kaylea, I. 209 00:10:06,800 --> 00:10:10,560 Speaker 6: Mean sorry, go ahead, Yes, the reports that the administration 210 00:10:10,640 --> 00:10:13,679 Speaker 6: is demanding that Venezuela cut ties with China Russia, I 211 00:10:13,760 --> 00:10:14,400 Speaker 6: ran in Cuba. 212 00:10:14,520 --> 00:10:18,479 Speaker 4: Can you confirm I'm sorry it reports that the administration 213 00:10:18,640 --> 00:10:20,959 Speaker 4: has essentially demanded that Venezuela cut. 214 00:10:20,720 --> 00:10:24,000 Speaker 5: Ties with China Russia. I ran in Cuba. Can you 215 00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:24,480 Speaker 5: confirm that? 216 00:10:24,840 --> 00:10:28,720 Speaker 4: Well, those alleged demands were made in a classified briefing 217 00:10:29,080 --> 00:10:31,480 Speaker 4: by Secretary Rubio, and I know that there's a lot 218 00:10:31,480 --> 00:10:33,439 Speaker 4: of leaks coming out of these classified briefings, so I'm 219 00:10:33,480 --> 00:10:35,640 Speaker 4: not going to confirm or deny or get into what 220 00:10:35,679 --> 00:10:39,000 Speaker 4: the Secretary has set in classified settings to members of Congress. 221 00:10:39,400 --> 00:10:41,760 Speaker 4: But I think that the administration has made it quite 222 00:10:41,760 --> 00:10:44,400 Speaker 4: clear to the interim authorities in Venezuela that this is 223 00:10:44,400 --> 00:10:47,760 Speaker 4: the Western Hemisphere and American dominance is going to continue 224 00:10:47,840 --> 00:10:49,080 Speaker 4: under this president. 225 00:10:50,440 --> 00:10:50,840 Speaker 7: Aska. 226 00:10:50,880 --> 00:10:53,600 Speaker 13: There have also been reports that the US could potentially 227 00:10:53,720 --> 00:10:57,320 Speaker 13: by Greenland is as one potential option on the table. 228 00:10:57,600 --> 00:10:59,560 Speaker 5: What would such an offer look like? 229 00:10:59,640 --> 00:11:02,840 Speaker 13: Is there anything monetarily you could provide a details there. 230 00:11:02,920 --> 00:11:05,680 Speaker 4: Well, that's something that's currently being actively discussed by the 231 00:11:05,679 --> 00:11:08,880 Speaker 4: President and his national security team. And I would point 232 00:11:08,880 --> 00:11:12,000 Speaker 4: out that the acquisition of Greenland by the United States 233 00:11:12,360 --> 00:11:14,760 Speaker 4: is not a new idea. This is something that presidents 234 00:11:14,840 --> 00:11:18,040 Speaker 4: dating back to the eighteen hundreds have said is advantageous 235 00:11:18,040 --> 00:11:21,679 Speaker 4: for America's national security. The President has been very open 236 00:11:21,720 --> 00:11:23,480 Speaker 4: and clear with all of you and with the world 237 00:11:23,760 --> 00:11:25,440 Speaker 4: that he've used it in the best interests of the 238 00:11:25,520 --> 00:11:30,520 Speaker 4: United States to deter Russian and Chinese aggression in the 239 00:11:30,600 --> 00:11:33,360 Speaker 4: Arctic region. And so that's why his team is currently 240 00:11:33,360 --> 00:11:35,960 Speaker 4: talking about what a potential purchase would look like. 241 00:11:37,440 --> 00:11:38,480 Speaker 14: Chucky here, I. 242 00:11:38,559 --> 00:11:41,600 Speaker 13: Thought about Greenland, why not rule out taking it by 243 00:11:41,640 --> 00:11:42,560 Speaker 13: military force? 244 00:11:43,640 --> 00:11:46,920 Speaker 4: I know that past presidents and past leaders have often 245 00:11:47,600 --> 00:11:52,920 Speaker 4: ruled things out. They've often been very open about ruling 246 00:11:52,920 --> 00:11:56,520 Speaker 4: things in and basically broadcasting their foreign policy strategy to 247 00:11:56,559 --> 00:11:58,439 Speaker 4: the rest of the world, not just to our allies, 248 00:11:58,480 --> 00:12:02,760 Speaker 4: but most egregious to our adversaries. That's not something this 249 00:12:02,840 --> 00:12:05,760 Speaker 4: president does. All options are always on the table for 250 00:12:05,800 --> 00:12:08,480 Speaker 4: President Trump as he examines what's in the best interests 251 00:12:08,480 --> 00:12:09,400 Speaker 4: of the United States. 252 00:12:09,679 --> 00:12:10,400 Speaker 5: But I will just. 253 00:12:10,360 --> 00:12:15,160 Speaker 4: Say that the president's first option always has been diplomacy. Again, 254 00:12:15,520 --> 00:12:19,440 Speaker 4: look at Venezuela. He tried ardently to strike a good 255 00:12:19,520 --> 00:12:22,320 Speaker 4: deal with Nicholas Maduro, and he told him, I will 256 00:12:22,400 --> 00:12:24,319 Speaker 4: use the United States military and you will not like 257 00:12:24,440 --> 00:12:26,440 Speaker 4: it if you don't take such a deal. 258 00:12:26,760 --> 00:12:29,000 Speaker 5: And look at what happened with respect to Iran. 259 00:12:29,360 --> 00:12:32,240 Speaker 4: The President said the same thing, right, he try to 260 00:12:32,679 --> 00:12:35,720 Speaker 4: have serious interest and then a deal with the Iranian 261 00:12:35,760 --> 00:12:39,800 Speaker 4: regime with respect to their nuclear capabilities. They were not interested, 262 00:12:39,960 --> 00:12:43,239 Speaker 4: and so Operation Midnight Hammer happened, which was another remarkable 263 00:12:43,600 --> 00:12:46,520 Speaker 4: military success under the leadership of this commander in chief. 264 00:12:46,920 --> 00:12:50,160 Speaker 4: So the president keeps his options open, but diplomacy is 265 00:12:50,160 --> 00:12:50,880 Speaker 4: always the first. 266 00:12:51,080 --> 00:12:55,200 Speaker 15: Quickly, just one additional call uponment does the President recognize 267 00:12:55,720 --> 00:13:00,280 Speaker 15: Denmark's ownership as part of the Kingdom because there been 268 00:13:00,320 --> 00:13:05,280 Speaker 15: some Republican senators questioning, you know, the claim that Denmark 269 00:13:05,360 --> 00:13:08,080 Speaker 15: has to Greenland. Is the President in that camp with them, 270 00:13:08,200 --> 00:13:09,280 Speaker 15: you know, questioning. 271 00:13:08,880 --> 00:13:12,679 Speaker 4: The legality of I have not heard him question it personally, 272 00:13:12,720 --> 00:13:14,560 Speaker 4: but you're welcome to ask him yourself next time you 273 00:13:14,600 --> 00:13:15,120 Speaker 4: have the chance. 274 00:13:15,440 --> 00:13:17,800 Speaker 5: Thank andans lifted for Venezuela. 275 00:13:18,080 --> 00:13:19,679 Speaker 15: We got to lift some sanctions to let the oil 276 00:13:19,760 --> 00:13:20,040 Speaker 15: come in. 277 00:13:20,280 --> 00:13:21,680 Speaker 5: Can you talk about that just very brief. 278 00:13:21,800 --> 00:13:24,760 Speaker 4: Yeah, So the US is selectively rolling back sanctions to 279 00:13:24,880 --> 00:13:27,800 Speaker 4: enable the transport and the sale of Venezuelan crude and 280 00:13:27,840 --> 00:13:29,440 Speaker 4: oil products to the global markets. 281 00:13:29,520 --> 00:13:35,319 Speaker 3: Yes, everybody, This is Andrew Colvet, executive producer of the 282 00:13:35,400 --> 00:13:38,679 Speaker 3: Charlie Kirk Show.

The Burna les lethal launcher 286 00:13:49,200 --> 00:13:52,600 Speaker 3: looks like a firearm, but it isn't one. It fires powerful, chemical, 287 00:13:52,640 --> 00:13:55,560 Speaker 3: irritant and kinetic projectiles that can stop a threat in 288 00:13:55,600 --> 00:13:59,120 Speaker 3: its tracks.

With respect to 328 00:15:41,520 --> 00:15:43,880 Speaker 4: the two ships that you mentioned, I spoke with you 329 00:15:43,920 --> 00:15:47,560 Speaker 4: about the Bella one. There was another vessel this morning, 330 00:15:48,040 --> 00:15:51,080 Speaker 4: the Sofia, that, in coordination with the Department of War 331 00:15:51,120 --> 00:15:54,120 Speaker 4: the Department of Homeland Security apprehended it.

The US Coast Guard is 335 00:16:07,560 --> 00:16:11,880 Speaker 4: is escorting the SOFIA to the United States for final disposition. 336 00:16:12,000 --> 00:16:15,760 Speaker 4: To answer your question, Kelly directly, this was through Operation 337 00:16:16,000 --> 00:16:19,160 Speaker 4: Southern Sphere. The Department of War is unwavering in its 338 00:16:19,160 --> 00:16:22,840 Speaker 4: mission to crush illicit activity in the Western Hemisphere, and 339 00:16:22,920 --> 00:16:25,760 Speaker 4: as the President has repeatedly stated, We're going to defend 340 00:16:25,760 --> 00:16:29,320 Speaker 4: our homeland and restore security and strength across the Americas. 341 00:16:29,520 --> 00:16:32,640 Speaker 5: Dasha, Sasha Caurerlin, thank you and having me here.

And that 396 00:19:04,320 --> 00:19:08,080 Speaker 4: has been the President's north star and guiding principle throughout 397 00:19:08,080 --> 00:19:12,600 Speaker 4: his entire policy since January twentieth Minnesota. 398 00:19:13,040 --> 00:19:16,120 Speaker 19: Does the administration believe that Tim Walls potentially dropped out 399 00:19:16,119 --> 00:19:19,120 Speaker 19: of the governor's race because he could be under criminal investigation. 400 00:19:21,119 --> 00:19:23,080 Speaker 5: I don't know if there's a criminal investigation. 401 00:19:23,280 --> 00:19:25,159 Speaker 4: If there was, I wouldn't be able to comment on 402 00:19:25,200 --> 00:19:27,199 Speaker 4: it from up here, to be honest with you, but 403 00:19:27,280 --> 00:19:29,280 Speaker 4: I think Tim Walls probably dropped out of the race 404 00:19:29,280 --> 00:19:31,320 Speaker 4: because he realizes he no longer has the support of 405 00:19:31,359 --> 00:19:34,280 Speaker 4: the people of his own state, which is a remarkable 406 00:19:34,280 --> 00:19:36,840 Speaker 4: downfall considering he was the number two on the Democrat 407 00:19:36,880 --> 00:19:40,280 Speaker 4: Party's ticket just about a year ago. When it comes 408 00:19:40,280 --> 00:19:43,040 Speaker 4: to Minnesota, the fraud that we have seen, the wide 409 00:19:43,119 --> 00:19:46,880 Speaker 4: scale of fraud is really remarkable. 410 00:19:46,920 --> 00:19:47,639 Speaker 5: It's egregious. 411 00:19:47,680 --> 00:19:51,679 Speaker 4: I would encurcourage every single journalist in this room to 412 00:19:51,720 --> 00:19:54,439 Speaker 4: go to Minnesota and to cover it yourselves. As for 413 00:19:54,480 --> 00:19:57,199 Speaker 4: the Trump administration, we have officials who have been on 414 00:19:57,240 --> 00:20:00,240 Speaker 4: the ground almost every day.

It's the Trump administration that has taken multiple 517 00:25:20,600 --> 00:25:24,199 Speaker 4: actions on various fronts to ensure that taxpayer dollars are 518 00:25:24,240 --> 00:25:25,440 Speaker 4: not funding the. 519 00:25:25,320 --> 00:25:26,280 Speaker 5: Practice of abortion. 520 00:25:26,600 --> 00:25:29,959 Speaker 4: What the President was saying yesterday was Republicans and frankly 521 00:25:30,000 --> 00:25:33,000 Speaker 4: Democrats too, need to show a little bit more flexibility 522 00:25:33,080 --> 00:25:36,159 Speaker 4: so we can actually get something done with respect to 523 00:25:36,200 --> 00:25:37,439 Speaker 4: the issue of healthcare. 524 00:25:37,640 --> 00:25:39,560 Speaker 5: Republicans have amazing ideas. 525 00:25:39,600 --> 00:25:43,040 Speaker 4: The President himself, as we spoke about earlier, has launched 526 00:25:43,080 --> 00:25:45,840 Speaker 4: this Most Favored Nation Drug Pricing initiative, has cut good 527 00:25:45,840 --> 00:25:48,720 Speaker 4: deals with big pharma. He wants to see Republicans and 528 00:25:48,760 --> 00:25:52,200 Speaker 4: Democrats too, if they're willing codify those executive orders into 529 00:25:52,280 --> 00:25:54,680 Speaker 4: law so that these good deals can remain and these 530 00:25:54,680 --> 00:25:57,560 Speaker 4: prices can continue to be lowered long after this president 531 00:25:57,720 --> 00:26:00,840 Speaker 4: and this deal maker in chief is gone. President's talked 532 00:26:00,840 --> 00:26:03,680 Speaker 4: a lot about health savings accounts and giving more money 533 00:26:03,720 --> 00:26:07,080 Speaker 4: back to the healthcare consumer rather than to these giant 534 00:26:07,119 --> 00:26:10,159 Speaker 4: insurance companies, and he's been very outspoken and tough on 535 00:26:10,240 --> 00:26:12,160 Speaker 4: them too, and I think you'll see more and hear 536 00:26:12,200 --> 00:26:14,920 Speaker 4: more from him directly on that issue. So he wants 537 00:26:14,960 --> 00:26:17,960 Speaker 4: to see Congress get something done with respect to healthcare. 538 00:26:18,040 --> 00:26:20,040 Speaker 5: And that was the point that he was driving home yesterday. 539 00:26:20,119 --> 00:26:23,960 Speaker 22: So Goline, President Trump says, the drug cartels are running Mexico. 540 00:26:24,720 --> 00:26:25,640 Speaker 14: What action does. 541 00:26:25,560 --> 00:26:28,679 Speaker 22: He need to see Mexico's President, Claudia scheinbamb take to 542 00:26:28,760 --> 00:26:30,960 Speaker 22: prove that she's in control of that country, in control 543 00:26:31,000 --> 00:26:33,640 Speaker 22: of those hotels, And does the White House believe she's 544 00:26:33,680 --> 00:26:35,440 Speaker 22: able to do that without US intervention? 545 00:26:35,760 --> 00:26:38,280 Speaker 4: Look, I think the President was speaking very candidly and 546 00:26:38,280 --> 00:26:41,800 Speaker 4: frankly about the reality on the ground in Mexico. 547 00:26:42,240 --> 00:26:43,840 Speaker 5: Hayley jar and happy to the year. 548 00:26:43,880 --> 00:26:45,879 Speaker 13: I want to say too, about this ceased tanker with 549 00:26:46,000 --> 00:26:49,080 Speaker 13: bella horse. Before this that Russia had sent a submarine 550 00:26:49,080 --> 00:26:52,080 Speaker 13: to the sport. It was there any engagement with that submarine, 551 00:26:52,160 --> 00:26:55,640 Speaker 13: and then was the deconfliction align with Russian used ahead 552 00:26:55,800 --> 00:26:56,840 Speaker 13: of forty and a half. 553 00:26:57,119 --> 00:27:01,000 Speaker 4: Again, this was a Venezuelan shadow flea vessel that has 554 00:27:01,080 --> 00:27:05,360 Speaker 4: transported sanctioned oil. The vessel was deemed stateless after flying 555 00:27:05,400 --> 00:27:08,560 Speaker 4: a false flag and it had a judicial seizure order 556 00:27:08,800 --> 00:27:10,880 Speaker 4: and that's why the crew will be subject to prosecution. 557 00:27:12,400 --> 00:27:19,160 Speaker 6: Mary Columbia, the President talking weeks, I will be open 558 00:27:19,200 --> 00:27:22,199 Speaker 6: for an operation there, sure, the President of Columbia, the 559 00:27:22,240 --> 00:27:23,080 Speaker 6: expecting golf. 560 00:27:23,000 --> 00:27:26,160 Speaker 5: Course and time too, and I want to be on California. 561 00:27:26,320 --> 00:27:28,399 Speaker 4: That would be a very unwise question for me to 562 00:27:28,480 --> 00:27:31,719 Speaker 4: answer to way into what's your next question in California? 563 00:27:31,920 --> 00:27:34,600 Speaker 19: Can you share any more about the broad investigation? 564 00:27:34,640 --> 00:27:36,280 Speaker 5: And the President send them there Westland. 565 00:27:36,560 --> 00:27:38,400 Speaker 19: Who's being investigated and. 566 00:27:38,520 --> 00:27:39,400 Speaker 5: Where's it sturning? 567 00:27:39,560 --> 00:27:41,679 Speaker 4: Again, this is going to be a all hands on 568 00:27:41,760 --> 00:27:45,639 Speaker 4: deck government wide effort. The President has directed all agencies 569 00:27:45,680 --> 00:27:48,720 Speaker 4: across the board to look at federal spending programs in 570 00:27:48,800 --> 00:27:51,760 Speaker 4: not just Minnesota, but also in the state of California, 571 00:27:51,800 --> 00:27:54,720 Speaker 4: to identify fraud and to prosecute to the fullest extent 572 00:27:54,800 --> 00:27:55,760 Speaker 4: of the law all. 573 00:27:55,680 --> 00:28:00,320 Speaker 5: Those who have committed it. We take one more sure, Thank. 574 00:28:00,160 --> 00:28:04,040 Speaker 23: You, Carolyn. Yesterday was the five year anniversary of January sixth. 575 00:28:04,480 --> 00:28:07,520 Speaker 23: Democrats and mainstream media continued to push their big lie 576 00:28:07,560 --> 00:28:10,320 Speaker 23: that it was an insurrection and that police officers died 577 00:28:10,320 --> 00:28:13,280 Speaker 23: that day. The reality is that four Trump supporters died 578 00:28:13,280 --> 00:28:16,080 Speaker 23: on January sixth, and two women were killed by January 579 00:28:16,080 --> 00:28:19,160 Speaker 23: sixth police. Everybody knows Ashley Babbitt was shot in cold 580 00:28:19,160 --> 00:28:21,840 Speaker 23: blood by Capitol police officer Michael Byrd, But there was 581 00:28:21,880 --> 00:28:24,760 Speaker 23: another woman. Her name was Roseanne Boylan from Georgia, and 582 00:28:24,840 --> 00:28:27,560 Speaker 23: she was peppable to gas and ultimately bruly beaten with 583 00:28:27,600 --> 00:28:31,159 Speaker 23: a stick by January six police officer Lila Morris. The 584 00:28:31,160 --> 00:28:34,480 Speaker 23: Biden administration and mainstream media lied and told Americans Roseanne 585 00:28:34,480 --> 00:28:38,240 Speaker 23: Boylan died of overdoes on Capital steps. Her family is 586 00:28:38,280 --> 00:28:41,560 Speaker 23: now asking for an investigation. Is the administration aware of 587 00:28:41,600 --> 00:28:44,480 Speaker 23: the circumstances of her death and will there be an investigation? 588 00:28:44,560 --> 00:28:48,000 Speaker 4: Finally, well, for an investigation, I will have to defer 589 00:28:48,040 --> 00:28:50,400 Speaker 4: you to either the FBI or the Department of Justice, 590 00:28:50,400 --> 00:28:52,360 Speaker 4: and I'm sorry to have to do that, but with 591 00:28:52,440 --> 00:28:54,680 Speaker 4: respect to all of the facts that you just laid out, 592 00:28:54,720 --> 00:28:57,920 Speaker 4: The White House relished the opportunity yesterday to actually create 593 00:28:57,960 --> 00:29:01,200 Speaker 4: a new website to share the fact with the American public, 594 00:29:01,400 --> 00:29:02,480 Speaker 4: but also all those. 595 00:29:02,320 --> 00:29:02,880 Speaker 5: In this room. 596 00:29:02,880 --> 00:29:05,920 Speaker 4: We knew the media would be covering January sixth quite 597 00:29:05,960 --> 00:29:08,280 Speaker 4: a bit because they think it's something that the American 598 00:29:08,320 --> 00:29:10,520 Speaker 4: people are still believing their lies on. They think it's 599 00:29:10,520 --> 00:29:14,000 Speaker 4: something that still helps their case against this president. Obviously 600 00:29:14,040 --> 00:29:16,000 Speaker 4: not or else he wouldn't have been re elected in 601 00:29:16,040 --> 00:29:19,920 Speaker 4: an overwhelming fashion in November of last year. And so 602 00:29:19,960 --> 00:29:22,120 Speaker 4: I would encourage everyone to take a look at the website. 603 00:29:22,280 --> 00:29:24,240 Speaker 4: It's quite well done, and thank you all very much. 604 00:29:24,240 --> 00:29:25,280 Speaker 5: It's great to be back with you. 605 00:29:25,960 --> 00:29:26,320 Speaker 16: Thank you. 606 00:29:27,560 --> 00:29:29,960 Speaker 3: Massive amount of breaking news there.

It's good to have you back. Senator how 637 00:30:59,800 --> 00:31:00,480 Speaker 3: have you been. 638 00:31:01,560 --> 00:31:04,040 Speaker 14: I've been great. Happy New Year, Andrew.

I will tell you twenty twenty 642 00:31:09,880 --> 00:31:12,680 Speaker 3: five was a absolute doozy. But there is so much 643 00:31:12,680 --> 00:31:17,400 Speaker 3: breaking news here, Senator. You know, there's Greenland. There was 644 00:31:17,440 --> 00:31:20,280 Speaker 3: a shooting that I want to actually inform our audience 645 00:31:20,320 --> 00:31:23,920 Speaker 3: about involving an ICE officer in Minneapolis. As you know, 646 00:31:24,000 --> 00:31:28,440 Speaker 3: we've been surging ICE DHS personnel over two thousand on 647 00:31:28,480 --> 00:31:33,160 Speaker 3: the streets of Minneapolis and Saint Paul, massive, massive reaction 648 00:31:33,320 --> 00:31:36,440 Speaker 3: from the federal government. It appears that it was a 649 00:31:36,520 --> 00:31:39,640 Speaker 3: ramming and a shooting. This is breaking news, a ramming 650 00:31:39,720 --> 00:31:42,440 Speaker 3: and a shooting. So a lot of times the citizen activists, 651 00:31:42,440 --> 00:31:46,000 Speaker 3: these volunteers on the left, they will follow around ICE 652 00:31:46,120 --> 00:31:49,440 Speaker 3: vehicles trying to alert the public, and sometimes they ram them, 653 00:31:50,040 --> 00:31:52,240 Speaker 3: and sometimes they try and get in their way. Sometimes 654 00:31:52,240 --> 00:31:54,800 Speaker 3: they play fast and loose with their own vehicle. It 655 00:31:54,880 --> 00:31:58,920 Speaker 3: appears initial indications, we're waiting for more information here, that 656 00:31:58,920 --> 00:32:04,000 Speaker 3: that's what this was. But Senator, let's start there. There 657 00:32:04,000 --> 00:32:07,040 Speaker 3: was a House Oversight Committee hearing on the Somali fraud 658 00:32:07,240 --> 00:32:12,400 Speaker 3: and the complicity within the local politicians there covering it up. 659 00:32:12,480 --> 00:32:15,479 Speaker 3: Maybe they were getting political kickbacks. What's your take of it. 660 00:32:15,560 --> 00:32:18,440 Speaker 3: You have run the state of Florida, You know these processes, 661 00:32:18,520 --> 00:32:19,880 Speaker 3: you know how the bureaucracies work. 662 00:32:19,880 --> 00:32:20,560 Speaker 2: What's your reaction. 663 00:32:21,120 --> 00:32:24,560 Speaker 14: Well, I'm not surprised. Number One. When I became governor 664 00:32:24,640 --> 00:32:28,520 Speaker 14: of Florida January twenty eleventh, I saw going agency by agency. Now, 665 00:32:28,600 --> 00:32:31,800 Speaker 14: my background is I'm a business guy, and in business, 666 00:32:32,000 --> 00:32:34,360 Speaker 14: you don't waste your money, right, and you solve your 667 00:32:34,360 --> 00:32:37,080 Speaker 14: customer's needs. They don't want to pay you a little 668 00:32:37,120 --> 00:32:39,960 Speaker 14: extra money because you wasted money or did stupid things. 669 00:32:40,560 --> 00:32:43,400 Speaker 14: So what I watched agency by agency, there would be 670 00:32:43,760 --> 00:32:47,840 Speaker 14: they wouldn't worry about fraud against the agency, They wouldn't 671 00:32:47,840 --> 00:32:52,000 Speaker 14: worry about improper payments. They look as free money. The 672 00:32:52,040 --> 00:32:53,560 Speaker 14: way is the way. So many people looked at it. 673 00:32:53,600 --> 00:32:56,920 Speaker 14: So I went agency by agency and fix it. Then 674 00:32:56,920 --> 00:32:58,920 Speaker 14: we got all this free federal money. It's free, by 675 00:32:58,960 --> 00:33:02,680 Speaker 14: the way. The attitude that many governors have is if 676 00:33:03,920 --> 00:33:06,320 Speaker 14: the federal government's paying for it up, it's free. Didn't 677 00:33:06,320 --> 00:33:10,160 Speaker 14: cost you anything, right, And so I watched it like 678 00:33:10,200 --> 00:33:12,360 Speaker 14: after a hurricane. People would say, well, if we just 679 00:33:12,400 --> 00:33:13,880 Speaker 14: got to, you know, we can go get all this 680 00:33:14,080 --> 00:33:20,680 Speaker 14: free federal money. So I watched unbelievable fraud attempts with 681 00:33:20,800 --> 00:33:23,680 Speaker 14: regard to debris pick up after hurricanes. But that's just 682 00:33:23,720 --> 00:33:28,280 Speaker 14: the tip of the iceberg. Every government program, and especially 683 00:33:28,360 --> 00:33:34,760 Speaker 14: federal programs, the oversight is pathetic, it's horrible. We have studies, 684 00:33:34,800 --> 00:33:38,400 Speaker 14: We know that there's you know, hundreds of billions of 685 00:33:38,440 --> 00:33:42,040 Speaker 14: dollars of fraud. We know there's tens of billions of 686 00:33:42,040 --> 00:33:44,080 Speaker 14: dollars worth of improper payments and we don't get the 687 00:33:44,080 --> 00:33:48,120 Speaker 14: money back right, and then we know, we know people 688 00:33:48,240 --> 00:33:50,840 Speaker 14: lie cheating steel, and we we're just sitting there and 689 00:33:50,840 --> 00:33:54,280 Speaker 14: people say, well, it's it's free. Why do you worry 690 00:33:54,320 --> 00:33:56,000 Speaker 14: so much about this, Well, we should worry about it 691 00:33:56,080 --> 00:33:58,360 Speaker 14: because thirty eight and a half thirty dollars worth of debt. 692 00:33:58,720 --> 00:34:01,320 Speaker 14: Your interest rates are too high because of that, you're 693 00:34:01,520 --> 00:34:04,480 Speaker 14: the inflation is caused by all this wasteful spending. And 694 00:34:04,520 --> 00:34:07,400 Speaker 14: it's not fair. It's not fair. The hard working the 695 00:34:07,560 --> 00:34:10,240 Speaker 14: kid that's out there or family that's out there busting 696 00:34:10,239 --> 00:34:12,560 Speaker 14: their butt every day. And then somebody else doesn't want 697 00:34:12,560 --> 00:34:15,080 Speaker 14: to work, so they take advantage of a state government, 698 00:34:15,120 --> 00:34:17,480 Speaker 14: a local government, a federal government. It's wrong. 699 00:34:17,800 --> 00:34:20,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean it keeps getting worse the deeper this 700 00:34:20,760 --> 00:34:24,400 Speaker 3: rabbit hole goes. Senator, it looks like, you know, Keith Ellison, 701 00:34:24,440 --> 00:34:27,759 Speaker 3: there was a leaked tape released of him that he 702 00:34:27,880 --> 00:34:29,920 Speaker 3: was basically, you know, said he was going to cover 703 00:34:30,040 --> 00:34:32,520 Speaker 3: up for these Somalis if they kind of gave them 704 00:34:32,560 --> 00:34:35,160 Speaker 3: political kickbacks, and he was gonna they were gonna run 705 00:34:35,200 --> 00:34:39,960 Speaker 3: cover for them. There's multiple questions here. I'm going to 706 00:34:39,960 --> 00:34:43,960 Speaker 3: play David Marcus from Fox News. He had a great 707 00:34:44,000 --> 00:34:45,719 Speaker 3: take on it on to get your reaction to it, 708 00:34:45,760 --> 00:34:48,200 Speaker 3: because we had Senator Ron Johnson on the show yesterday. 709 00:34:48,239 --> 00:34:49,719 Speaker 3: I know a friend and colleague of yours in the 710 00:34:49,760 --> 00:34:53,040 Speaker 3: Senate who said that these were these systems are designed 711 00:34:53,080 --> 00:34:56,480 Speaker 3: to fail, They're designed to be looted. They're designed to 712 00:34:56,520 --> 00:34:59,799 Speaker 3: have wealth extracted from working class Americans, from the white man, 713 00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:01,680 Speaker 3: however you want to look at it, to be given 714 00:35:01,719 --> 00:35:05,440 Speaker 3: to marginalized communities. I thought David Marcus made an incredible 715 00:35:05,480 --> 00:35:06,839 Speaker 3: point here at two forty five. 716 00:35:07,320 --> 00:35:11,360 Speaker 24: This is not standard Tammany Hall patronage and kickbacks, right, 717 00:35:11,400 --> 00:35:14,160 Speaker 24: We've always had that that was meant to keep people 718 00:35:14,200 --> 00:35:17,040 Speaker 24: in power, that was not meant to be a massive 719 00:35:17,080 --> 00:35:20,480 Speaker 24: redistribution of wealth. What we're seeing here is a massive 720 00:35:20,520 --> 00:35:24,040 Speaker 24: redistribution of wealth when these blue states allocate billions of 721 00:35:24,080 --> 00:35:27,480 Speaker 24: dollars for marginalized communities and then fail to put in 722 00:35:27,520 --> 00:35:33,000 Speaker 24: place any safeguards to stop theft. That's Marxism by fraud. 723 00:35:32,440 --> 00:35:36,799 Speaker 24: That's taking money from corporations, from rich people, saying we're 724 00:35:36,800 --> 00:35:38,279 Speaker 24: going to send it over here, We're not going to 725 00:35:38,320 --> 00:35:39,960 Speaker 24: pay any attention to what's happening to it. 726 00:35:40,840 --> 00:35:44,000 Speaker 3: That line sticks with me. This is Marxism by fraud. 727 00:35:44,320 --> 00:35:47,759 Speaker 3: Is this intentional? Is this in a blue state, in 728 00:35:47,760 --> 00:35:48,600 Speaker 3: a blue setting? 729 00:35:49,320 --> 00:35:49,680 Speaker 2: Is this? 730 00:35:49,960 --> 00:35:54,480 Speaker 3: Is this the outgrowth of a really sick ideology that 731 00:35:54,680 --> 00:35:58,560 Speaker 3: is based on racial grievances, that's based on systemic oppression, 732 00:35:58,680 --> 00:36:02,000 Speaker 3: that's based on cr TEA, all of these ideologies. 733 00:36:02,080 --> 00:36:04,240 Speaker 2: Is it intentionally lacking oversight? 734 00:36:04,560 --> 00:36:08,040 Speaker 14: Oh? Absolutely? I mean, think about this, is the most 735 00:36:08,040 --> 00:36:12,560 Speaker 14: of the taxes are paid by hard working middle class Americans. 736 00:36:12,719 --> 00:36:15,560 Speaker 14: That's who's paying most of the taxes in this country. Right. 737 00:36:15,800 --> 00:36:19,480 Speaker 14: It's taking their money and giving it to somebody else. 738 00:36:19,719 --> 00:36:22,680 Speaker 14: And then their goal is the politicians that give all 739 00:36:22,719 --> 00:36:26,520 Speaker 14: this away, Oh vote vote for them, because they're giving 740 00:36:26,520 --> 00:36:29,840 Speaker 14: you something for free because it's it's free Andrew that 741 00:36:29,920 --> 00:36:33,799 Speaker 14: doesn't cost anything, so absolutely. I mean, let me tell 742 00:36:33,840 --> 00:36:35,719 Speaker 14: you a quick story. I became governor of Florida. I 743 00:36:35,800 --> 00:36:38,239 Speaker 14: ran my whole campaign in twenty ten on jobs. I 744 00:36:38,280 --> 00:36:40,799 Speaker 14: go to the agency that doesn't employment. Right after I won, 745 00:36:41,000 --> 00:36:44,120 Speaker 14: I said, how's unemployment work? They said, well, you have to, 746 00:36:44,239 --> 00:36:46,560 Speaker 14: I said, She said, we're open six days a week 747 00:36:46,560 --> 00:36:49,279 Speaker 14: because unemployed freulians don't have enough time to apply during 748 00:36:49,320 --> 00:36:52,840 Speaker 14: the week. Really, I said, if you get unemployment, if 749 00:36:52,840 --> 00:36:55,080 Speaker 14: they do anything. They said, yeah, apply forf to fly 750 00:36:55,200 --> 00:36:58,120 Speaker 14: for five jobs a week. I said, you enforce that? Well, no, 751 00:36:58,600 --> 00:37:01,360 Speaker 14: I said, I said, so, I said, if you somebody 752 00:37:01,480 --> 00:37:03,359 Speaker 14: was on unemployment and you found them have a job, 753 00:37:03,400 --> 00:37:06,040 Speaker 14: would you, you know, accuse them of fraud and get 754 00:37:06,080 --> 00:37:09,640 Speaker 14: the money back? Well? No, I said, what's your purpose here? 755 00:37:10,080 --> 00:37:12,080 Speaker 14: Is that our purpose is to give as many people 756 00:37:12,080 --> 00:37:15,200 Speaker 14: on the program as we can, right because we don't, 757 00:37:15,239 --> 00:37:18,799 Speaker 14: you know, because that will feel good? Who cares? It's free? 758 00:37:19,000 --> 00:37:21,160 Speaker 14: By the way, they explained to me that at the time, 759 00:37:21,200 --> 00:37:24,600 Speaker 14: the federal government was paying the excess money. So it's free. 760 00:37:24,760 --> 00:37:28,399 Speaker 14: It's federal money. They don't care, and they think that's 761 00:37:28,400 --> 00:37:30,520 Speaker 14: just how they're going to get elected. And you look, 762 00:37:30,800 --> 00:37:34,359 Speaker 14: I've been up here seven years. Don't they don't you know, 763 00:37:34,840 --> 00:37:38,040 Speaker 14: the people, they don't set up the programs to work. 764 00:37:38,080 --> 00:37:41,120 Speaker 14: They intentionally allow it to be allowed, the fraud. And 765 00:37:41,160 --> 00:37:45,400 Speaker 14: then we have earmarks that waste money. We have programs 766 00:37:45,520 --> 00:37:48,280 Speaker 14: that have no account But when I was governor of Florida, 767 00:37:48,640 --> 00:37:50,800 Speaker 14: four thousand lines of the budget, every line had a 768 00:37:50,800 --> 00:37:53,360 Speaker 14: written purpose. If you didn't meet your purpose, I vetoed 769 00:37:53,400 --> 00:37:56,200 Speaker 14: your money. We can't even I mean it's hard to 770 00:37:56,239 --> 00:37:58,120 Speaker 14: even get a copy of the budget up here, let 771 00:37:58,120 --> 00:38:01,759 Speaker 14: alone is there a purpose. So so we've got to 772 00:38:01,800 --> 00:38:04,640 Speaker 14: get to the bottom of this. This is unfair, it's 773 00:38:04,800 --> 00:38:06,840 Speaker 14: un American, it's infurious. 774 00:38:07,120 --> 00:38:09,400 Speaker 25: Has got to Senator Scott. We have to get to 775 00:38:09,400 --> 00:38:11,080 Speaker 25: the bottom of this. But it strikes me that the 776 00:38:11,080 --> 00:38:14,520 Speaker 25: most immediate pressing thing. We're not going to get Minnesota 777 00:38:14,600 --> 00:38:17,440 Speaker 25: to reform itself unless we can have a revolution in 778 00:38:17,480 --> 00:38:20,920 Speaker 25: their state government. But we've tried several times. We're not 779 00:38:20,960 --> 00:38:24,000 Speaker 25: going to get washed. Certainly, we're not going to flip Washington. 780 00:38:24,080 --> 00:38:26,879 Speaker 25: We're not going to flip fraud in California anytime soon. 781 00:38:28,160 --> 00:38:31,319 Speaker 25: It's what's the step I guess, first of all, what 782 00:38:31,320 --> 00:38:35,040 Speaker 25: could the administration do to have immediate accountability for this? 783 00:38:35,520 --> 00:38:37,680 Speaker 25: Not just in terms of arresting perpetrators, but I think 784 00:38:37,680 --> 00:38:39,520 Speaker 25: a lot of people are asking, Okay, we know the 785 00:38:39,560 --> 00:38:40,200 Speaker 25: fraud is there. 786 00:38:40,320 --> 00:38:41,080 Speaker 2: Can we bring a. 787 00:38:41,040 --> 00:38:43,799 Speaker 25: Stop to it in a quick way, even if that's 788 00:38:43,800 --> 00:38:47,000 Speaker 25: something as simple as saying Minnesota doesn't get money anymore? 789 00:38:47,440 --> 00:38:48,799 Speaker 2: Yeah, well that's kind of some of it. 790 00:38:49,120 --> 00:38:52,239 Speaker 14: Yeah, so right now, one thing they should be doing, 791 00:38:52,280 --> 00:38:53,839 Speaker 14: and they're focused on it. If you talk to Brooke 792 00:38:53,880 --> 00:38:56,359 Speaker 14: Rollins or you've talked to Membina, as you talk to them, 793 00:38:56,600 --> 00:38:58,839 Speaker 14: you know they're going through program by program and they're 794 00:38:58,840 --> 00:39:01,759 Speaker 14: gonna they're gonna do everything they can't. That's number one. 795 00:39:02,040 --> 00:39:05,360 Speaker 14: Number two is we've got it. We've got in Congress. 796 00:39:05,719 --> 00:39:09,239 Speaker 14: We've got to pass measures to stop the fraud and 797 00:39:09,360 --> 00:39:12,160 Speaker 14: make sure when we pass things it doesn't allow the 798 00:39:12,200 --> 00:39:16,120 Speaker 14: fraud to happen. So, so what you know, people like 799 00:39:16,239 --> 00:39:19,279 Speaker 14: Ron Johnson and Mike Lee and Cynthia lummis I are doing. 800 00:39:19,520 --> 00:39:22,080 Speaker 14: We keep coming up with ideas of how do you 801 00:39:22,719 --> 00:39:23,840 Speaker 14: stop the waste. 802 00:39:23,920 --> 00:39:24,000 Speaker 6: Now. 803 00:39:24,080 --> 00:39:26,160 Speaker 14: Part of it is stop the earmarks. Part of it 804 00:39:26,239 --> 00:39:29,719 Speaker 14: is don't have programs that have no accountability. That's part 805 00:39:29,719 --> 00:39:31,480 Speaker 14: of it. And then the other part is let's make 806 00:39:31,520 --> 00:39:35,160 Speaker 14: sure that the you know, executive branch has the ability 807 00:39:35,239 --> 00:39:38,360 Speaker 14: to stop it. And then we need to be doing investigations. 808 00:39:38,880 --> 00:39:42,239 Speaker 14: We need to do real investigations of of the of 809 00:39:42,600 --> 00:39:44,879 Speaker 14: of you know, each of these programs. I've been think, 810 00:39:45,000 --> 00:39:48,719 Speaker 14: I think about I've said for seven years that all 811 00:39:48,719 --> 00:39:51,480 Speaker 14: this fraud with regard to Tobre pick up, and I 812 00:39:51,520 --> 00:39:54,279 Speaker 14: can't get the Democrats to help me. I'm on the right, 813 00:39:54,360 --> 00:39:56,239 Speaker 14: I'm on the right committee, but I have to have 814 00:39:56,280 --> 00:39:59,920 Speaker 14: Democrat votes to get this done, to fix the UN 815 00:40:00,040 --> 00:40:02,440 Speaker 14: the labal fraud, and to repick up after hurricanes. 816 00:40:02,800 --> 00:40:06,560 Speaker 3: Jeez, they don't want to do it, Senator, they don't care. 817 00:40:07,239 --> 00:40:09,319 Speaker 3: I'm just I wonder if you're going to get maybe 818 00:40:09,320 --> 00:40:11,680 Speaker 3: a John fetterman if in the Senate, if there's laws 819 00:40:11,680 --> 00:40:15,359 Speaker 3: that need to be changed, is there? You know, there's 820 00:40:15,600 --> 00:40:17,359 Speaker 3: too little time here. And I actually have to ask 821 00:40:17,400 --> 00:40:20,200 Speaker 3: you about Greenland. I had no idea you spoke with 822 00:40:20,840 --> 00:40:23,880 Speaker 3: representatives from Greenland as much as you did fifty nine. 823 00:40:24,239 --> 00:40:27,319 Speaker 14: Denmark is a great ally and I know every time 824 00:40:27,360 --> 00:40:29,160 Speaker 14: I talk to them, I talk to their ambassad quite 825 00:40:29,160 --> 00:40:31,440 Speaker 14: a bit. They want to work with us, so we'll 826 00:40:31,440 --> 00:40:32,120 Speaker 14: see what happens. 827 00:40:32,120 --> 00:40:35,799 Speaker 2: Sir, all right, Senator, So you know these people, I. 828 00:40:35,760 --> 00:40:37,040 Speaker 14: Know exactly what's going to happen. 829 00:40:37,960 --> 00:40:41,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, what is going to happen next? Not let. 830 00:40:42,440 --> 00:40:44,760 Speaker 14: So I don't you know. Look, Denmark is a great ally. 831 00:40:44,800 --> 00:40:46,920 Speaker 14: I talked to their Basslard quite a bit. Jasper is 832 00:40:46,920 --> 00:40:50,239 Speaker 14: a good guy. So I think Trump is trying to 833 00:40:50,280 --> 00:40:53,520 Speaker 14: be strategic.

There is a tweet 887 00:43:13,239 --> 00:43:17,120 Speaker 3: here from Trician McLaughlin who was just on the show. 888 00:43:17,320 --> 00:43:20,440 Speaker 3: Actually she said today ice officers in Minneapolis were conducting 889 00:43:20,520 --> 00:43:24,440 Speaker 3: targeted operations, very targeted. There's over two thousand that have 890 00:43:24,520 --> 00:43:29,040 Speaker 3: surged to that area following the Somali fraud ring, basically 891 00:43:29,480 --> 00:43:35,719 Speaker 3: following Nick Shirley's expose, and when riders began blocking ice officers, 892 00:43:35,760 --> 00:43:38,480 Speaker 3: and one of these violent riders weaponized her vehicle attempting 893 00:43:38,520 --> 00:43:41,760 Speaker 3: to run over our law enforcement officers at an attempt 894 00:43:41,800 --> 00:43:46,239 Speaker 3: to kill them, certainly or at least to block them. 895 00:43:46,239 --> 00:43:48,239 Speaker 3: But yes, certainly those things can be fatal, and these 896 00:43:48,239 --> 00:43:50,279 Speaker 3: people lose their minds and they do crazy things, an 897 00:43:50,360 --> 00:43:53,840 Speaker 3: act of domestic terrorism, says Trician McLoughlin. An Ice officer, 898 00:43:53,880 --> 00:43:56,040 Speaker 3: fearing for his life, the lives of his fellow law 899 00:43:56,080 --> 00:43:59,160 Speaker 3: enforcement and the safety of the public, fired defensive shots. 900 00:44:00,160 --> 00:44:02,359 Speaker 3: The alleged perpetrator was hit in his deceased. The Ice 901 00:44:02,400 --> 00:44:05,480 Speaker 3: officer who was hurt are expected to make full recoveries. 902 00:44:06,080 --> 00:44:07,440 Speaker 2: And I totally agree with this. 903 00:44:07,440 --> 00:44:08,840 Speaker 3: By the way which she says next, this is the 904 00:44:08,880 --> 00:44:13,280 Speaker 3: direct consequence of constant attacks and demonization of our officers 905 00:44:13,280 --> 00:44:16,960 Speaker 3: by sanctuary politicians who fuel and encourage rampant assaults on 906 00:44:17,000 --> 00:44:19,320 Speaker 3: our law enforcement. These men and women who are simply 907 00:44:19,400 --> 00:44:21,640 Speaker 3: enforcing the law on the books are facing a thirteen 908 00:44:21,719 --> 00:44:24,560 Speaker 3: hundred percent increase in assaults against them in an eight 909 00:44:24,600 --> 00:44:26,560 Speaker 3: thousand percent increase in death threats. 910 00:44:26,800 --> 00:44:27,920 Speaker 2: This is an evolving situations. 911 00:44:27,960 --> 00:44:30,960 Speaker 3: We're giving we will give public more information as soon 912 00:44:31,000 --> 00:44:31,799 Speaker 3: as it becomes. 913 00:44:31,560 --> 00:44:35,239 Speaker 25: And that's the most important part because she says that 914 00:44:35,520 --> 00:44:38,799 Speaker 25: we'll see there's reportedly video, we'll see, we'll get more 915 00:44:38,840 --> 00:44:41,880 Speaker 25: context on what fully happened. But the big picture is this, 916 00:44:42,000 --> 00:44:45,120 Speaker 25: which is the reason ICE has to go around all 917 00:44:46,680 --> 00:44:49,919 Speaker 25: acting like they're basically going to war, is because they're 918 00:44:49,960 --> 00:44:53,080 Speaker 25: treated as an enemy force by these leftern cities, by 919 00:44:53,120 --> 00:44:55,640 Speaker 25: these left wing governments. Their job would be a million 920 00:44:55,640 --> 00:44:57,960 Speaker 25: times easier if they could pluck people out of jails 921 00:44:58,800 --> 00:45:01,200 Speaker 25: like focus on that, get the crisriminals so getting arrested. 922 00:45:01,200 --> 00:45:04,640 Speaker 25: That's happening all the time. They have treated them like criminals. 923 00:45:04,719 --> 00:45:08,520 Speaker 25: They've encouraged violence against them, and they've harassed them. And 924 00:45:08,600 --> 00:45:11,200 Speaker 25: so regardless of how this incident went down, that is 925 00:45:11,239 --> 00:45:13,359 Speaker 25: why it happened and that needs to be the focus. Yeah, 926 00:45:13,440 --> 00:45:16,040 Speaker 25: the blood of this person is on Jacob Fry's hands, 927 00:45:16,120 --> 00:45:18,480 Speaker 25: It's on Governor Tim Wallas's hands, period. 928 00:45:19,400 --> 00:45:22,960 Speaker 3: I totally well said a thousand percent agree. I actually 929 00:45:23,000 --> 00:45:24,680 Speaker 3: like it when we disagree on stuff a little bit 930 00:45:24,680 --> 00:45:27,440 Speaker 3: because it makes for a live I just happened to 931 00:45:27,440 --> 00:45:29,520 Speaker 3: completely agree with what you said. You have to so 932 00:45:29,920 --> 00:45:33,399 Speaker 3: no sob stories here, absolutely not. I have seen video 933 00:45:33,400 --> 00:45:35,920 Speaker 3: after video. There was an instance that really sticks out 934 00:45:35,920 --> 00:45:38,600 Speaker 3: in my mind where I saw a video of this 935 00:45:38,680 --> 00:45:43,160 Speaker 3: guy ramming ice officers in California. They ram him back, 936 00:45:43,200 --> 00:45:45,960 Speaker 3: they stop him and arrest him. He gets released. He 937 00:45:46,000 --> 00:45:48,719 Speaker 3: gets immediately he's an American citizen. So he goes over 938 00:45:48,960 --> 00:45:53,719 Speaker 3: straight to CNN about two hours later cries victim on 939 00:45:53,800 --> 00:45:56,480 Speaker 3: national television. And this is what they do, this is 940 00:45:56,520 --> 00:46:00,000 Speaker 3: their cycle. So you have these vigilantes they call themselves 941 00:46:00,040 --> 00:46:03,360 Speaker 3: it is an activists or whatever, and they're working on 942 00:46:03,400 --> 00:46:06,520 Speaker 3: behalf of illegal immigrants because you know, why get off 943 00:46:06,560 --> 00:46:08,560 Speaker 3: your couch to help American citizens. They want to go 944 00:46:08,640 --> 00:46:12,200 Speaker 3: help the marginalized, right, So then they do this and 945 00:46:12,360 --> 00:46:14,920 Speaker 3: they put lives on the line. They put lives at 946 00:46:15,000 --> 00:46:17,600 Speaker 3: risk of federal law enforcement. And by the way, new 947 00:46:17,680 --> 00:46:23,440 Speaker 3: today ice officers have surpassed their recruiting goals of ten thousand. 948 00:46:23,800 --> 00:46:26,200 Speaker 3: According to one Big Beautiful Bill, they've hired twelve thousand. 949 00:46:26,360 --> 00:46:29,120 Speaker 3: There's twelve thousand new ice officers on the streets of 950 00:46:29,160 --> 00:46:31,879 Speaker 3: the United States. And I want to underscore Blake's point 951 00:46:31,920 --> 00:46:36,160 Speaker 3: here about this the way that it was done. So 952 00:46:36,200 --> 00:46:38,520 Speaker 3: you go back to Obama was called the deporter in Chief. 953 00:46:39,000 --> 00:46:42,600 Speaker 3: Do you realize that eighty percent of those deportations were 954 00:46:42,640 --> 00:46:44,920 Speaker 3: done the old fashioned way? What does that mean? It 955 00:46:44,960 --> 00:46:48,239 Speaker 3: means that an illegal immigrant was arrested, apprehended on the 956 00:46:48,239 --> 00:46:51,799 Speaker 3: streets of his or her you know, invaded city. They 957 00:46:51,840 --> 00:46:55,800 Speaker 3: would go into jail, the local officials would process that person. 958 00:46:55,880 --> 00:46:57,640 Speaker 3: There would be an ICE detainer. They would hand that 959 00:46:57,640 --> 00:47:00,279 Speaker 3: person over to ICE safely, securely. There's no race in 960 00:47:00,320 --> 00:47:03,680 Speaker 3: the streets. There's no DHS, rammings, there's no none of 961 00:47:03,680 --> 00:47:04,160 Speaker 3: that stuff. 962 00:47:04,680 --> 00:47:05,400 Speaker 2: It's secure. 963 00:47:05,480 --> 00:47:07,760 Speaker 3: The person has handcuffs on, they get put on a plane, 964 00:47:07,920 --> 00:47:11,480 Speaker 3: process put back in their country of origin. When sanctuary 965 00:47:11,880 --> 00:47:15,360 Speaker 3: cities and states refuse to cooperate with federal law enforcement, 966 00:47:15,800 --> 00:47:18,560 Speaker 3: this is the result. They have to go into the streets, 967 00:47:18,600 --> 00:47:20,640 Speaker 3: do raids, They have to go knock on doors, They 968 00:47:20,640 --> 00:47:23,560 Speaker 3: have to endanger the public in order to do the 969 00:47:23,600 --> 00:47:24,480 Speaker 3: public a good. 970 00:47:24,760 --> 00:47:26,839 Speaker 2: So this is completely Blake's point. 971 00:47:27,080 --> 00:47:29,360 Speaker 3: The blood is on the hand of Jacob Fry, who's, 972 00:47:29,600 --> 00:47:32,680 Speaker 3: by the way, demanding that these ICE agents be removed 973 00:47:32,719 --> 00:47:36,360 Speaker 3: from a city, which is not gonna happen by the 974 00:47:36,400 --> 00:47:38,399 Speaker 3: way and you hear Tom home and saying we're gonna 975 00:47:38,440 --> 00:47:41,040 Speaker 3: double down. We're coming for California, We're coming for Illinois. 976 00:47:41,080 --> 00:47:43,719 Speaker 3: We're coming from New York next so look out. More 977 00:47:43,760 --> 00:47:47,040 Speaker 3: of this is coming is as it should be, and uh, 978 00:47:47,320 --> 00:47:49,279 Speaker 3: you know, just say a prayer for our brave men 979 00:47:49,320 --> 00:47:52,719 Speaker 3: and women of DHS and ICE as they are forced 980 00:47:53,120 --> 00:47:56,480 Speaker 3: to not work in cooperation behind closed doors in safety 981 00:47:56,680 --> 00:47:58,720 Speaker 3: but instead have to go out on the streets and commit, 982 00:47:58,840 --> 00:48:03,000 Speaker 3: you know, conduct raids on businesses and homes and that 983 00:48:03,040 --> 00:48:05,880 Speaker 3: sort of thing. Because this is completely on the head 984 00:48:06,000 --> 00:48:10,160 Speaker 3: and on the hands of local officials. It's absolutely infuriating. Blake, 985 00:48:11,000 --> 00:48:14,000 Speaker 3: we had a kind of related but there was a 986 00:48:14,080 --> 00:48:17,360 Speaker 3: House Oversight Committee hearing, the first of its kind. Some 987 00:48:17,520 --> 00:48:21,759 Speaker 3: explosive allegations were made in this hearing by Republicans in 988 00:48:21,760 --> 00:48:24,760 Speaker 3: the state of Minnesota that were saying they have tried 989 00:48:24,800 --> 00:48:29,160 Speaker 3: to conduct oversight and to deal with the fraud in Minnesota. 990 00:48:29,280 --> 00:48:31,719 Speaker 25: We saw this one viral the other day that there's 991 00:48:32,320 --> 00:48:35,800 Speaker 25: in twenty eighteen, their Inspector General did a whole report, 992 00:48:36,360 --> 00:48:38,439 Speaker 25: or the staff there did a whole thing. It laid 993 00:48:38,440 --> 00:48:41,919 Speaker 25: out exactly how fraud happens. They say they have fake 994 00:48:42,040 --> 00:48:44,880 Speaker 25: groups that come in or associake groups.
