We 27 00:01:19,880 --> 00:01:23,200 Speaker 4: are going to be covering the all the developments with 28 00:01:23,319 --> 00:01:27,480 Speaker 4: ice that are happening in Minneapolis and Portland. In Philadelphia, 29 00:01:27,520 --> 00:01:29,560 Speaker 4: there's a new wrinkle there. We're also going to be 30 00:01:29,600 --> 00:01:33,640 Speaker 4: covering the voter ID developments out of the state of California. Yes, 31 00:01:33,680 --> 00:01:36,320 Speaker 4: I said that right. The state of California is making 32 00:01:36,440 --> 00:01:40,840 Speaker 4: progress grassroots movement on voter ID. They just crossed a 33 00:01:40,880 --> 00:01:43,520 Speaker 4: million signatures. We're going to have Representative Calvert there, the 34 00:01:43,600 --> 00:01:46,800 Speaker 4: highest ranking congressman out of the state of California, joining 35 00:01:46,840 --> 00:01:49,840 Speaker 4: us next. He's been behind the scenes pushing that boulder 36 00:01:49,920 --> 00:01:53,120 Speaker 4: up a hill. He's doing great work there. We are 37 00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:57,840 Speaker 4: now at the precipice of a very very sticky, tricky situation, 38 00:01:58,520 --> 00:02:00,680 Speaker 4: and we talked about it yesterday on our Crime Show 39 00:02:00,680 --> 00:02:06,160 Speaker 4: with Jack Posobic. But we are now seeing local jurisdictions 40 00:02:06,560 --> 00:02:10,560 Speaker 4: threatening federal law enforcement. Blake give us the lowdown. 41 00:02:10,760 --> 00:02:12,880 Speaker 5: Well, yeah, so it's exactly what it is. So we 42 00:02:12,960 --> 00:02:16,480 Speaker 5: had the shooting in Minneapolis, and we've seen them sort 43 00:02:16,480 --> 00:02:18,320 Speaker 5: of build up to this. There have been a few 44 00:02:18,320 --> 00:02:24,800 Speaker 5: false starts because their rhetoric is like, they'll use aggressive rhetoric, 45 00:02:24,840 --> 00:02:27,040 Speaker 5: but they don't quite cross the line of taking action. 46 00:02:27,080 --> 00:02:29,440 Speaker 5: But what they keep doing is they keep delegitimizing ICE. 47 00:02:29,480 --> 00:02:33,720 Speaker 5: They're calling them messed thugs. They say they're kidnapping, yeah, gestapo, 48 00:02:33,840 --> 00:02:37,760 Speaker 5: they say that they are committing crimes. And increasingly the 49 00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:43,839 Speaker 5: goal is to basically say that ICE is a criminal organization, 50 00:02:44,280 --> 00:02:47,160 Speaker 5: and they will treat them as a criminal organization. And 51 00:02:47,880 --> 00:02:50,040 Speaker 5: I think what we're building up to is they want 52 00:02:50,080 --> 00:02:53,080 Speaker 5: to they want to engineer a constitutional crisis where they 53 00:02:53,080 --> 00:02:57,280 Speaker 5: can just overtly defy the enforcement of federal law, which 54 00:02:57,280 --> 00:03:01,640 Speaker 5: is what ICE does. ICE is enforcing federal immigration law 55 00:03:02,080 --> 00:03:05,320 Speaker 5: by arresting and deporting people who are illegally in the country. 56 00:03:05,639 --> 00:03:07,720 Speaker 5: That is what they are doing. And it started with 57 00:03:08,919 --> 00:03:11,760 Speaker 5: I've seen this play out over basically decades of my 58 00:03:11,880 --> 00:03:14,680 Speaker 5: life because it was originally just oh that it causes 59 00:03:14,720 --> 00:03:19,720 Speaker 5: harm to communities if you arrest people, if you go 60 00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:22,160 Speaker 5: to their church, or if you do like if you 61 00:03:22,440 --> 00:03:25,079 Speaker 5: arrest them in certain contexts, then they won't go to hospitals, 62 00:03:25,200 --> 00:03:28,120 Speaker 5: or they won't call the police for other crimes. But 63 00:03:28,280 --> 00:03:31,799 Speaker 5: increasingly just the attitude is actually these people all everyone 64 00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:33,160 Speaker 5: in the world has the right to be in America, 65 00:03:33,360 --> 00:03:37,800 Speaker 5: especially if they're a foreign rapist, gangster, criminal, especially, and 66 00:03:37,960 --> 00:03:41,280 Speaker 5: any attempt to deport them or arrest them, they will 67 00:03:41,320 --> 00:03:43,120 Speaker 5: not collaborate with that. We already see that with the 68 00:03:43,120 --> 00:03:45,800 Speaker 5: sanctuary city stuff. They won't keep anyone locked up so 69 00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:49,240 Speaker 5: that ICE can detain them. And now they just say, well, actually, 70 00:03:49,240 --> 00:03:51,880 Speaker 5: ICE just can't detain them at all. And where we're 71 00:03:51,920 --> 00:03:57,800 Speaker 5: getting closer to this is we have them now just 72 00:03:57,920 --> 00:04:02,800 Speaker 5: basically saying they're going to arrest ICE agents possibly. 73 00:04:02,840 --> 00:04:08,000 Speaker 4: And this is Philadelphia Sheriff Rachelle billal Dei hire out 74 00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:10,520 Speaker 4: of Philadelphia. And by the way, in this clip, she's 75 00:04:10,960 --> 00:04:16,560 Speaker 4: praising the DA, who's a Soros funded DA, absolutely lawless 76 00:04:16,600 --> 00:04:19,719 Speaker 4: head of this city. It's incredible to the extent to 77 00:04:19,760 --> 00:04:24,160 Speaker 4: which these municipalities have been radicalized. It's a longer clip, 78 00:04:24,320 --> 00:04:27,000 Speaker 4: but she says to ICE, you don't want this smoke. 79 00:04:27,440 --> 00:04:28,760 Speaker 4: So she's like talking. 80 00:04:28,560 --> 00:04:29,000 Speaker 2: Like a thug. 81 00:04:29,080 --> 00:04:29,920 Speaker 5: Well, let's just show the club. 82 00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:33,039 Speaker 4: She's behaving like one, and she is forcing, as you said, 83 00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:34,920 Speaker 4: a constitutional crisis three seventy one. 84 00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:39,960 Speaker 6: Let knowe that law enforcement professionals, real ones, not the 85 00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:44,479 Speaker 6: fake made of ICE. Probably Trump's a new army to 86 00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:47,400 Speaker 6: attack citizens of the United States. 87 00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:49,279 Speaker 2: Did you hear what I said? 88 00:04:50,480 --> 00:04:54,360 Speaker 6: No law enforcement professional wears a mask. Those that come 89 00:04:54,440 --> 00:04:58,839 Speaker 6: into our communities wearing a mask to commit crime. I'm 90 00:04:58,920 --> 00:05:03,080 Speaker 6: thank god for our district Attorney Larry Krastna, who say 91 00:05:03,160 --> 00:05:06,279 Speaker 6: he's gonna lock him up, And I'm saying, now, we 92 00:05:06,400 --> 00:05:09,760 Speaker 6: are not gonna whisk you away for them to hide 93 00:05:09,839 --> 00:05:13,640 Speaker 6: your identity because when you do it there, you're getting 94 00:05:13,720 --> 00:05:17,279 Speaker 6: arrested there. If any of them want to come in 95 00:05:17,360 --> 00:05:20,560 Speaker 6: this city and commit a crime, you will not be 96 00:05:20,640 --> 00:05:21,440 Speaker 6: able to hide. 97 00:05:21,960 --> 00:05:23,480 Speaker 2: Nobody will wish you off. 98 00:05:23,920 --> 00:05:28,080 Speaker 6: You don't want this smoke, because we will bring it 99 00:05:28,720 --> 00:05:30,440 Speaker 6: to you. 100 00:05:30,440 --> 00:05:31,320 Speaker 2: You don't want this smoke. 101 00:05:31,360 --> 00:05:35,960 Speaker 4: So she's basically threatening an armed standoff with federal law enforcement. 102 00:05:36,040 --> 00:05:39,320 Speaker 4: That I mean, that is insane, It is deranged, and. 103 00:05:39,640 --> 00:05:42,880 Speaker 5: It is channeling Larry Krasner, who we haven't talked about 104 00:05:42,920 --> 00:05:45,240 Speaker 5: as much lately, but he was a big thing during 105 00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:48,200 Speaker 5: peak Biden, peak Woke era. He's one of the worst 106 00:05:48,680 --> 00:05:55,520 Speaker 5: pro crime. DA's purchase Department of Prosecutors. He basically prime. Yeah, 107 00:05:55,760 --> 00:05:58,240 Speaker 5: he's per crime. He stopped bail. He's like, I'm not 108 00:05:58,320 --> 00:06:02,560 Speaker 5: going to prosecute are thefts, all these other offenses. He's 109 00:06:02,560 --> 00:06:04,880 Speaker 5: a pro crime individual, and suddenly he's saying, oh, I'm 110 00:06:04,920 --> 00:06:06,239 Speaker 5: going to arrest ice agents. 111 00:06:06,320 --> 00:06:09,440 Speaker 4: Yeah, that's in arcotyranny as well. Right where you where 112 00:06:09,520 --> 00:06:14,000 Speaker 4: you're enforcing the law selectively against your preferred targets, You're 113 00:06:14,040 --> 00:06:17,160 Speaker 4: refusing to enforce a lot of the law if it's 114 00:06:17,240 --> 00:06:23,400 Speaker 4: your preferred you know, people groups, special groups, whether that's immigrants, minorities, whatever, 115 00:06:23,960 --> 00:06:26,520 Speaker 4: and so this is so we talked about this last night. 116 00:06:26,560 --> 00:06:29,000 Speaker 4: I think it's worth reiterating because you're seeing the same 117 00:06:29,040 --> 00:06:34,040 Speaker 4: thing in Hennepin County, in Minnesota, you're seeing Portland where 118 00:06:34,040 --> 00:06:36,200 Speaker 4: that we are looking. We are looking down the barrel 119 00:06:36,240 --> 00:06:40,680 Speaker 4: of a standoff between state or local law enforcement and 120 00:06:41,560 --> 00:06:46,120 Speaker 4: federal law enforcement. And so the Trump administration now has 121 00:06:46,200 --> 00:06:49,720 Speaker 4: to be zeroed in, laser focused on what do they 122 00:06:49,760 --> 00:06:51,480 Speaker 4: do when this standoff occurs? 123 00:06:51,839 --> 00:06:52,640 Speaker 2: And you have some thoughts. 124 00:06:52,760 --> 00:06:56,039 Speaker 5: Yeah, So we talked about this last night that the 125 00:06:56,200 --> 00:06:59,400 Speaker 5: left is headed for this confrontation. The left is they 126 00:06:59,520 --> 00:07:03,960 Speaker 5: want this showdown over Ice. And we can see how 127 00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:07,440 Speaker 5: we discussed this yesterday. They were basically thrilled at what 128 00:07:07,520 --> 00:07:09,720 Speaker 5: happened to Renee Good because that is their plan. They 129 00:07:09,760 --> 00:07:13,320 Speaker 5: engineered this. They want these confrontations between ice and protesters 130 00:07:13,560 --> 00:07:15,800 Speaker 5: because they want someone to get shot so they can 131 00:07:16,160 --> 00:07:18,720 Speaker 5: condemn ice. So what they want, what these people are 132 00:07:18,800 --> 00:07:21,160 Speaker 5: dying to have happen, is they want to have a 133 00:07:21,200 --> 00:07:25,960 Speaker 5: confrontation between police and ice where there's some sort of 134 00:07:25,960 --> 00:07:28,000 Speaker 5: conflict and like a cop gets shot by ice. That 135 00:07:28,120 --> 00:07:29,640 Speaker 5: is what they want to have happened. 136 00:07:29,800 --> 00:07:32,480 Speaker 4: Yeah, totally agree, and I actually think they wanted Renee 137 00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:36,160 Speaker 4: Good to be killed, but they know they celebrate that 138 00:07:36,280 --> 00:07:38,240 Speaker 4: they did. Yeah, because we said, now she gets to 139 00:07:38,280 --> 00:07:40,560 Speaker 4: be a martyr. You got this white, thirty seven year 140 00:07:40,560 --> 00:07:44,560 Speaker 4: old woman that was basically a citizen vigilante. She was 141 00:07:44,560 --> 00:07:47,480 Speaker 4: taking it upon herself to get metal in the business 142 00:07:47,480 --> 00:07:52,080 Speaker 4: of law enforcement, obstruct the Ice operation that was going on. 143 00:07:52,840 --> 00:07:54,960 Speaker 4: Apparently she was doing it throughout the day. She's obviously 144 00:07:54,960 --> 00:07:57,600 Speaker 4: been trained, she's obviously coordinating with other people, and then 145 00:07:57,640 --> 00:08:00,680 Speaker 4: she messed around and they caused an unforced. 146 00:08:01,240 --> 00:08:02,760 Speaker 5: I don't think she was a vigil well, I guess 147 00:08:02,760 --> 00:08:05,440 Speaker 5: she actually she was a vigilanty whatever. But the point 148 00:08:05,520 --> 00:08:09,720 Speaker 5: is is that they Yeah, as you said, they wanted 149 00:08:09,720 --> 00:08:12,400 Speaker 5: her to get shot, and now they want another situation 150 00:08:12,480 --> 00:08:14,920 Speaker 5: to happen. They want a cop to get shot or 151 00:08:15,480 --> 00:08:17,960 Speaker 5: and this is the thing, they want the administration to 152 00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:20,520 Speaker 5: be so fearful of that that they'll give up on 153 00:08:20,960 --> 00:08:23,120 Speaker 5: enforcing the law, and they can just say, oh, it's 154 00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:25,040 Speaker 5: a dead letter. We successfully beat them. 155 00:08:25,240 --> 00:08:25,480 Speaker 2: Well. 156 00:08:25,520 --> 00:08:28,440 Speaker 5: And so the administration has to have a plan to 157 00:08:28,520 --> 00:08:30,640 Speaker 5: make sure neither of these things happen. They have to 158 00:08:30,640 --> 00:08:32,720 Speaker 5: do two things. They have well, they have to do 159 00:08:32,760 --> 00:08:35,079 Speaker 5: one thing above all. They have to make sure that 160 00:08:35,120 --> 00:08:41,280 Speaker 5: they assert ICE's legitimate authority to enforce immigration law in 161 00:08:41,320 --> 00:08:44,200 Speaker 5: this country. They cannot back off on that. 162 00:08:44,840 --> 00:08:45,160 Speaker 2: Now. 163 00:08:45,840 --> 00:08:49,960 Speaker 5: If that means some lunatic in a blue city is 164 00:08:49,960 --> 00:08:51,960 Speaker 5: going to try to force stop them, you can't let 165 00:08:52,040 --> 00:08:55,800 Speaker 5: them stop you. But I would also say you should 166 00:08:55,840 --> 00:08:57,240 Speaker 5: make sure that the left is the first one who 167 00:08:57,360 --> 00:09:01,079 Speaker 5: uses force to try to if someone's going to shoot 168 00:09:01,080 --> 00:09:02,959 Speaker 5: a gun, it has to be the left first, frankly. 169 00:09:03,280 --> 00:09:05,480 Speaker 5: But you can push their cars out of the way, 170 00:09:05,720 --> 00:09:07,559 Speaker 5: you can shove them out of the way, but make 171 00:09:07,600 --> 00:09:09,400 Speaker 5: sure that they are the ones who try to shoot 172 00:09:09,400 --> 00:09:12,520 Speaker 5: somebody first. I think this is genuinely important. That is 173 00:09:12,520 --> 00:09:15,640 Speaker 5: how you ultimately, this is a test of wills, this 174 00:09:15,720 --> 00:09:18,719 Speaker 5: is a test of pr and you have to make 175 00:09:18,720 --> 00:09:20,679 Speaker 5: sure that you win that battle. This is possibly the 176 00:09:20,720 --> 00:09:22,520 Speaker 5: most important test this administration. 177 00:09:22,600 --> 00:09:25,640 Speaker 4: So Philly is a standout because you've got this crazy 178 00:09:25,640 --> 00:09:28,000 Speaker 4: sheriff who's saying, I'm gonna you don't want this smoke, 179 00:09:28,120 --> 00:09:30,960 Speaker 4: which is a direct threat. I will say for the 180 00:09:31,280 --> 00:09:34,640 Speaker 4: in the instance of Minnesota three forty four, this is 181 00:09:34,720 --> 00:09:38,480 Speaker 4: the statement by Minnesota police and peace officers. They're asking 182 00:09:38,640 --> 00:09:42,800 Speaker 4: they're basically condemning some of the statements, the rhetoric that 183 00:09:42,840 --> 00:09:46,240 Speaker 4: are coming out of officials. They're asking leaders to stop 184 00:09:46,280 --> 00:09:50,280 Speaker 4: inflammatory language and respect the legal investigative process that and 185 00:09:50,320 --> 00:09:53,559 Speaker 4: they're saying that they under they stand behind law enforcement 186 00:09:54,000 --> 00:09:59,120 Speaker 4: i e. ICE agents and irresponsible reckless rhetoric from political 187 00:09:59,240 --> 00:10:02,160 Speaker 4: leaders attackinglaw enforcement has real in dangerous consequences. So at 188 00:10:02,240 --> 00:10:04,360 Speaker 4: least in the instance of Minnesota, it looks like the 189 00:10:04,400 --> 00:10:08,120 Speaker 4: police are siding with law enforcement and ICE, so that's 190 00:10:08,160 --> 00:10:09,160 Speaker 4: a good sign there. 191 00:10:11,640 --> 00:10:12,760 Speaker 2: Candles were lit. 192 00:10:12,640 --> 00:10:15,680 Speaker 4: On Bondai Beach by families, by children, by people of 193 00:10:15,720 --> 00:10:18,679 Speaker 4: faith to celebrate a festival of Light, a festival from 194 00:10:18,720 --> 00:10:23,000 Speaker 4: Bible Times, one that Jesus himself celebrated.

This is a ground up, grassroots led 371 00:19:41,119 --> 00:19:44,159 Speaker 4: effort in the blue state of California, and they have 372 00:19:44,480 --> 00:19:48,880 Speaker 4: just surpassed one million signatures on the petition. They have 373 00:19:48,920 --> 00:19:52,720 Speaker 4: surpassed the first benchmark to get it on the ballot 374 00:19:52,760 --> 00:19:56,360 Speaker 4: in twenty twenty six, but they need more signatures. Here 375 00:19:56,400 --> 00:19:59,920 Speaker 4: to help us unpack that story is Representative Ken Calvert, 376 00:20:00,320 --> 00:20:05,200 Speaker 4: California's forty first congressional district, and after Prop fifty he 377 00:20:05,359 --> 00:20:07,680 Speaker 4: is now going to be He's a candidate for California's 378 00:20:07,720 --> 00:20:11,520 Speaker 4: fortieth district.

Yeah, absolutely, So, why don't 381 00:20:16,480 --> 00:20:19,880 Speaker 4: you give our audience kind of a broad view of 382 00:20:19,960 --> 00:20:23,720 Speaker 4: this effort. We know it's grassroots because, let's be honest, 383 00:20:23,800 --> 00:20:25,760 Speaker 4: Voter ID would not be coming from the top down 384 00:20:25,800 --> 00:20:29,120 Speaker 4: in California. This is a bottom up, grassroots led movement 385 00:20:29,160 --> 00:20:30,640 Speaker 4: and it's had tremendous success. 386 00:20:30,800 --> 00:20:33,960 Speaker 3: Congressman absolutely after this last election. 387 00:20:34,680 --> 00:20:39,800 Speaker 10: We lost two of our campaigns, one to up in 388 00:20:40,119 --> 00:20:44,320 Speaker 10: Northern California. John Torte lost by less than two hundred 389 00:20:44,400 --> 00:20:47,640 Speaker 10: votes and then Michelle Steele, who lost by less than 390 00:20:47,720 --> 00:20:51,479 Speaker 10: seven hundred votes, and we knew that we had a problem. 391 00:20:51,560 --> 00:20:53,439 Speaker 10: You know, we're the wild West of election law here 392 00:20:53,520 --> 00:20:58,360 Speaker 10: in California. Everything goes motor voter. We register everybody, including 393 00:20:58,400 --> 00:21:03,200 Speaker 10: non citizens and people who should not be voting or 394 00:21:03,280 --> 00:21:05,000 Speaker 10: voting in our elections. And we need to make sure 395 00:21:05,000 --> 00:21:08,359 Speaker 10: that we get a voter ID law put on the ballot. 396 00:21:08,359 --> 00:21:10,359 Speaker 10: And let me tell you, the Orange County Lincoln Club, 397 00:21:10,400 --> 00:21:13,199 Speaker 10: I got to give them a lot of credit. 398 00:21:13,440 --> 00:21:16,199 Speaker 3: Carl Demayo, who's doing a grassroots. 399 00:21:15,640 --> 00:21:19,440 Speaker 10: Operation also, but the Orange County Link Club raised the 400 00:21:19,480 --> 00:21:22,360 Speaker 10: first one million dollars all of us. 401 00:21:22,720 --> 00:21:25,480 Speaker 3: You know, we're trying to raise money to do this. 402 00:21:25,600 --> 00:21:28,919 Speaker 10: It's expensive. We've gotten a million signatures so far. We 403 00:21:28,960 --> 00:21:32,640 Speaker 10: need eight hundred and seventy three thousand signatures verified and 404 00:21:32,880 --> 00:21:35,119 Speaker 10: there's a lot of shenanigans are probably going to take place, 405 00:21:35,119 --> 00:21:37,639 Speaker 10: so we want to make sure we have well over that. 406 00:21:37,720 --> 00:21:39,200 Speaker 10: So we're going to looking to get a million, two 407 00:21:39,760 --> 00:21:42,879 Speaker 10: one hundred thousand signatures to make sure that this is 408 00:21:42,920 --> 00:21:44,200 Speaker 10: on the ballot next November. 409 00:21:44,400 --> 00:21:46,919 Speaker 4: So to reiterate, you have a million. You just crossed 410 00:21:46,920 --> 00:21:49,520 Speaker 4: the million mark. We need to get to one point 411 00:21:49,600 --> 00:21:53,480 Speaker 4: two million signatures by March fifteenth. 412 00:21:53,560 --> 00:21:57,280 Speaker 10: Correct, that's correct, and we need to verify eight hundred 413 00:21:57,320 --> 00:21:59,960 Speaker 10: and seventy three thousand. So we want to be way 414 00:22:00,440 --> 00:22:03,879 Speaker 10: to make sure that there's no mistake that this is 415 00:22:04,240 --> 00:22:07,800 Speaker 10: on the ballot in next to the next November election. 416 00:22:08,320 --> 00:22:09,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, Blake, did you have a question. 417 00:22:09,920 --> 00:22:12,320 Speaker 5: I'm just I guess I was thinking about a few things. 418 00:22:12,320 --> 00:22:13,679 Speaker 5: The first thing that came to mind is this will 419 00:22:13,720 --> 00:22:16,760 Speaker 5: probably be the first time in California history. They'll really 420 00:22:16,800 --> 00:22:20,840 Speaker 5: aggressively go through every name. See if they're a citizen. Correct, 421 00:22:21,200 --> 00:22:24,440 Speaker 5: this person's in illeg Yeah, you might see that. The 422 00:22:24,520 --> 00:22:27,280 Speaker 5: other thing I wonder about. So obviously we support this, 423 00:22:27,480 --> 00:22:31,240 Speaker 5: Obviously it will help, but as you mentioned, California, they 424 00:22:31,280 --> 00:22:36,560 Speaker 5: have motor voter. California gives IDs two people who are illegals. 425 00:22:38,160 --> 00:22:39,920 Speaker 5: They do a lot of bad things. They have very 426 00:22:40,000 --> 00:22:44,359 Speaker 5: generous male voting laws, very generous ballot harvesting laws. How 427 00:22:44,480 --> 00:22:46,520 Speaker 5: much will this help as long as all those other 428 00:22:46,560 --> 00:22:49,280 Speaker 5: proposals are in play? And is there any hope of 429 00:22:49,320 --> 00:22:53,239 Speaker 5: maybe overturning those through initiatives, or how should we look 430 00:22:53,280 --> 00:22:54,119 Speaker 5: at it big picture? 431 00:22:54,320 --> 00:22:56,560 Speaker 10: Well, you're right on all of that. This is the 432 00:22:56,560 --> 00:22:59,400 Speaker 10: first step is to get this motor i D done. 433 00:22:59,520 --> 00:23:02,200 Speaker 10: That's a big step, you're right. That's why we want 434 00:23:02,240 --> 00:23:05,080 Speaker 10: to get a million, two hundred thousand signatures to make 435 00:23:05,119 --> 00:23:07,760 Speaker 10: sure that there's no question that we can verify eight 436 00:23:07,880 --> 00:23:10,840 Speaker 10: hundred and seventy three thousand signatures to make sure this 437 00:23:10,880 --> 00:23:13,280 Speaker 10: is on the ballot. It's not going to fix every problem, 438 00:23:13,280 --> 00:23:15,600 Speaker 10: but it's a big step forward for the state of California. 439 00:23:16,320 --> 00:23:18,119 Speaker 10: Trust me, I've seen this thing go south for a 440 00:23:18,160 --> 00:23:21,960 Speaker 10: long long time. So we have a chance finally to 441 00:23:22,000 --> 00:23:25,200 Speaker 10: make an improvement an election law in California and clean 442 00:23:25,280 --> 00:23:28,600 Speaker 10: up the voter rolls, which also is a problem. You're 443 00:23:28,640 --> 00:23:33,560 Speaker 10: right about ballot harvesting in California. It's crazy and it's unfair, 444 00:23:33,720 --> 00:23:36,879 Speaker 10: and we know that we've lost elections we shouldn't have lost, 445 00:23:37,680 --> 00:23:40,720 Speaker 10: probably at least two last election, probably three. 446 00:23:40,560 --> 00:23:44,920 Speaker 3: In my mind. I think Mike Garcia also is subject 447 00:23:44,920 --> 00:23:45,200 Speaker 3: to that. 448 00:23:45,280 --> 00:23:48,240 Speaker 10: But so we need to make sure that we get 449 00:23:48,280 --> 00:23:51,520 Speaker 10: this passed next November. So we're going to try to 450 00:23:51,600 --> 00:23:55,600 Speaker 10: raise the last part of it. California is for voter id. 451 00:23:56,320 --> 00:24:00,560 Speaker 10: The website is voter id California dot org. I would 452 00:24:00,880 --> 00:24:03,040 Speaker 10: you know anything that people can do to help this 453 00:24:03,200 --> 00:24:05,160 Speaker 10: out get it over the finish line. 454 00:24:05,680 --> 00:24:08,919 Speaker 5: And I want to say for anyone watching this, we 455 00:24:09,040 --> 00:24:11,360 Speaker 5: have a lot of California fans of this show. They 456 00:24:11,359 --> 00:24:13,880 Speaker 5: would email in all the time to Charlie. Charlie, when 457 00:24:13,920 --> 00:24:17,280 Speaker 5: will Turning Point save California. Charlie get involved in the 458 00:24:17,280 --> 00:24:19,280 Speaker 5: governor's race. Get involved in this race. We can turn 459 00:24:19,320 --> 00:24:22,440 Speaker 5: it around. All of you people who email us had 460 00:24:22,440 --> 00:24:24,359 Speaker 5: better of signed this petition period. 461 00:24:24,440 --> 00:24:25,440 Speaker 2: Go sign it right now. 462 00:24:25,640 --> 00:24:27,600 Speaker 5: If you haven't well and so you're calling you out. 463 00:24:27,640 --> 00:24:29,879 Speaker 4: You can't sign it online, but you can go to 464 00:24:29,960 --> 00:24:32,400 Speaker 4: that URL if you live in the state of California, 465 00:24:32,640 --> 00:24:34,600 Speaker 4: and you can request a signature form. 466 00:24:34,680 --> 00:24:36,000 Speaker 2: So do it right now. 467 00:24:36,040 --> 00:24:38,480 Speaker 4: You have till March fifteenth, but it's going to take 468 00:24:38,600 --> 00:24:40,080 Speaker 4: time for them to send it to you for you 469 00:24:40,160 --> 00:24:42,119 Speaker 4: to fill it out get it back. So go to 470 00:24:42,200 --> 00:24:45,480 Speaker 4: voter IDCA dot org right now. If you don't live 471 00:24:45,480 --> 00:24:47,480 Speaker 4: in the state of California, chip in. They need to 472 00:24:47,560 --> 00:24:50,320 Speaker 4: raise I think another million, million and a half to 473 00:24:50,359 --> 00:24:54,960 Speaker 4: get this over the finish line. But this is really 474 00:24:55,320 --> 00:24:57,679 Speaker 4: a huge, huge step in the right direction. I was 475 00:24:57,720 --> 00:25:02,080 Speaker 4: just talking with one of our mutual friends, Congressman Teresa Hernandez, 476 00:25:02,119 --> 00:25:06,440 Speaker 4: down at the Lincoln Club there. Yeah, and she owns 477 00:25:06,480 --> 00:25:09,000 Speaker 4: she owns a Mexican restaurant, and she was saying that 478 00:25:09,240 --> 00:25:13,520 Speaker 4: during when the raids were happening from Ice, she said 479 00:25:13,520 --> 00:25:16,000 Speaker 4: she lost about fifty percent of her business because and 480 00:25:16,040 --> 00:25:19,880 Speaker 4: her theory was is that, you know, the Hispanic population, 481 00:25:19,920 --> 00:25:22,840 Speaker 4: even if they had green cards, were not coming out 482 00:25:23,280 --> 00:25:26,040 Speaker 4: out of fear. Right now, you and I know that 483 00:25:26,040 --> 00:25:31,440 Speaker 4: that's ridiculous, But if you find yourself getting to November 484 00:25:31,560 --> 00:25:34,080 Speaker 4: of twenty twenty six and you haven't had any problems 485 00:25:34,080 --> 00:25:36,880 Speaker 4: with Ice or Customs and Border patrol, you think you're 486 00:25:36,920 --> 00:25:40,840 Speaker 4: gonna risk the voter id portion of this to cheat 487 00:25:40,880 --> 00:25:42,920 Speaker 4: an election, even if they're offering you one hundred bucks 488 00:25:43,000 --> 00:25:45,520 Speaker 4: or gift cards to this or that. I have to 489 00:25:45,560 --> 00:25:48,000 Speaker 4: believe that this is going to clean up a huge, 490 00:25:48,080 --> 00:25:52,639 Speaker 4: huge percentage of the problem. And listen, this is becoming 491 00:25:52,760 --> 00:25:55,560 Speaker 4: an issue front and center. President Trump is now truth 492 00:25:55,600 --> 00:25:57,760 Speaker 4: socially about it. He says he's personally going to be 493 00:25:57,880 --> 00:26:00,720 Speaker 4: running an effort to get this across the fifth line. 494 00:26:01,359 --> 00:26:03,640 Speaker 4: Here's just a smattering of some of what Elon Musk 495 00:26:03,680 --> 00:26:06,639 Speaker 4: has been saying lately. Three fifty four. This is a 496 00:26:06,760 --> 00:26:08,639 Speaker 4: tweet that he put up no ID and mail in 497 00:26:08,720 --> 00:26:12,359 Speaker 4: ballots make fraud trivial. Both of those need to be 498 00:26:12,400 --> 00:26:15,960 Speaker 4: fixed to restore democracy. Three fifty five. Voter idea is 499 00:26:16,040 --> 00:26:19,879 Speaker 4: essential to stop widespread fraud. Three fifty six. America should 500 00:26:19,960 --> 00:26:23,560 Speaker 4: not have worse voter ID requirements than every democratic country 501 00:26:23,600 --> 00:26:27,400 Speaker 4: on earth. California, New York actually banned use of voter ID. 502 00:26:28,080 --> 00:26:30,639 Speaker 4: People are contesting that, but it's essentially true. It is 503 00:26:30,680 --> 00:26:32,760 Speaker 4: illegal to show your idea in those states. The only 504 00:26:32,800 --> 00:26:36,320 Speaker 4: reason to do this is fraud. I completely agree, and 505 00:26:36,440 --> 00:26:38,440 Speaker 4: I want to give a little shout out to Chef 506 00:26:38,480 --> 00:26:43,440 Speaker 4: gruhle Down. There also a Huntington Beach represent a resident 507 00:26:44,359 --> 00:26:48,400 Speaker 4: speaking at the Huntington Beach City Council three fifty three. 508 00:26:49,080 --> 00:26:51,720 Speaker 11: When you go to the DMV and you get a 509 00:26:51,760 --> 00:26:54,600 Speaker 11: driver's license or an ID, you register to vote. 510 00:26:54,600 --> 00:26:55,720 Speaker 3: You do not need any. 511 00:26:55,640 --> 00:26:56,720 Speaker 2: Citizenship to do that. 512 00:26:56,880 --> 00:26:59,320 Speaker 11: When you get any benefits in the state of California, 513 00:26:59,440 --> 00:27:01,720 Speaker 11: they send you have voter registration card. You do not 514 00:27:01,880 --> 00:27:04,520 Speaker 11: need to show any idea, proof of citizenship to do that, 515 00:27:04,840 --> 00:27:07,359 Speaker 11: then you're on the voter rolls. Those voter rolls, they 516 00:27:07,440 --> 00:27:10,119 Speaker 11: keep adding people on over and over and over again, 517 00:27:10,280 --> 00:27:13,040 Speaker 11: and nobody's cross referencing id's on those voter rolls. So 518 00:27:13,040 --> 00:27:14,960 Speaker 11: when you talk to Bob Page on a local level, 519 00:27:15,040 --> 00:27:19,080 Speaker 11: or any local any local registrar voters, they're going to say, well, yeah, 520 00:27:19,119 --> 00:27:21,639 Speaker 11: we've got a really great operation on site. We're just 521 00:27:21,760 --> 00:27:24,240 Speaker 11: taking what Sacramento gives us in regards to the rules. 522 00:27:24,359 --> 00:27:26,879 Speaker 11: We can't ask for ID on site or we can't 523 00:27:26,880 --> 00:27:29,719 Speaker 11: cross reference ID. So the problem is in ours anymore. Right, 524 00:27:29,760 --> 00:27:33,200 Speaker 11: it's that diffusion of responsibility is one hundred percent fact 525 00:27:33,440 --> 00:27:36,080 Speaker 11: that you do not need to prove any citizenship to 526 00:27:36,200 --> 00:27:38,480 Speaker 11: get a voter registration in California. 527 00:27:38,840 --> 00:27:43,240 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, it's become so extreme, Congressmen that that 528 00:27:43,800 --> 00:27:46,240 Speaker 4: you know, these election workers are, they won't even ask 529 00:27:46,320 --> 00:27:51,200 Speaker 4: for it. And so the next question is what happens? 530 00:27:51,760 --> 00:27:55,360 Speaker 4: You know, the first question is is the polling showing. 531 00:27:55,040 --> 00:27:56,280 Speaker 2: That this would actually pass. 532 00:27:56,920 --> 00:28:00,720 Speaker 4: If it passes, what sort of enforcement mechan at the 533 00:28:00,760 --> 00:28:03,840 Speaker 4: polling centers are in place to make sure that election 534 00:28:03,920 --> 00:28:05,840 Speaker 4: workers are doing their job and checking IDs? 535 00:28:06,320 --> 00:28:09,919 Speaker 10: Right, Well, the polling is off the charts. Even a 536 00:28:09,960 --> 00:28:13,800 Speaker 10: majority of Democrats are in favor of voter ID. Republicans 537 00:28:14,520 --> 00:28:18,840 Speaker 10: obviously great numbers ninety percent, the independent seventy percent, it's 538 00:28:19,200 --> 00:28:22,640 Speaker 10: seventy percent overall are in favor of a voter ID 539 00:28:22,880 --> 00:28:23,840 Speaker 10: here in California. 540 00:28:23,920 --> 00:28:25,760 Speaker 3: So we're going to pass this. We're we get it 541 00:28:25,760 --> 00:28:26,840 Speaker 3: on the ballot, we'll pass it. 542 00:28:27,320 --> 00:28:30,800 Speaker 10: Secretary of State obviously is in charge of voter lawns 543 00:28:30,880 --> 00:28:33,920 Speaker 10: in the state of California. We need a new Secretary 544 00:28:33,920 --> 00:28:36,520 Speaker 10: of State. We've got a gentleman named Don Wagner, Republican, 545 00:28:36,600 --> 00:28:39,200 Speaker 10: running for that. I encourage everybody to look him up 546 00:28:39,240 --> 00:28:43,760 Speaker 10: and support him. I think California is coming to a 547 00:28:44,200 --> 00:28:49,400 Speaker 10: point where it's that we're going to turn this state around. Look, 548 00:28:49,440 --> 00:28:51,880 Speaker 10: there's more Republicans in California than there is in any 549 00:28:51,920 --> 00:28:55,000 Speaker 10: other state in the Union. People forget that because of 550 00:28:55,040 --> 00:28:57,440 Speaker 10: what's happened in California over the last number of years. 551 00:28:58,080 --> 00:29:00,400 Speaker 10: But we're a big state, forty million people people. It's 552 00:29:00,440 --> 00:29:03,800 Speaker 10: a wealthy state. We're number one in many many industries. 553 00:29:04,760 --> 00:29:07,080 Speaker 10: Were people who live here don't deserve to have a 554 00:29:07,120 --> 00:29:09,400 Speaker 10: government we have, and so we we will. 555 00:29:09,800 --> 00:29:10,800 Speaker 3: It will be enforced. 556 00:29:12,360 --> 00:29:16,520 Speaker 10: We did this in Florida, and Florida turned the political 557 00:29:16,560 --> 00:29:19,200 Speaker 10: system around. I think a lot of it was because 558 00:29:19,480 --> 00:29:24,520 Speaker 10: they have a much more efficient voter system than we do, 559 00:29:24,680 --> 00:29:26,160 Speaker 10: and then we need to have the same kind of 560 00:29:26,200 --> 00:29:28,240 Speaker 10: system that's this a state like Florida has. 561 00:29:28,520 --> 00:29:30,640 Speaker 4: Yeah, And that's what I've been told is that this 562 00:29:30,800 --> 00:29:35,080 Speaker 4: law is being written to emulate Florida's voter ID law, 563 00:29:35,080 --> 00:29:37,640 Speaker 4: which you know is the standard bearer in the country. 564 00:29:38,240 --> 00:29:40,120 Speaker 2: And it's great to know. 565 00:29:40,160 --> 00:29:43,160 Speaker 4: I'm told there's you know, tip lines if if local 566 00:29:44,240 --> 00:29:46,880 Speaker 4: you know election workers are not enforcing the law, not 567 00:29:46,960 --> 00:29:49,720 Speaker 4: checking IDs, you can actually part of this bill will 568 00:29:49,760 --> 00:29:53,280 Speaker 4: actually include an enforcement mechanism like that where they can 569 00:29:53,320 --> 00:29:55,920 Speaker 4: call in. And I just want to give you some 570 00:29:57,240 --> 00:30:01,520 Speaker 4: you're just desserts here. Congressman, you are the I think 571 00:30:01,560 --> 00:30:04,080 Speaker 4: the highest ranking forgive me if I'm wrong, but you're 572 00:30:04,080 --> 00:30:07,320 Speaker 4: the now the highest ranking Republican in Congress or maybe 573 00:30:07,680 --> 00:30:10,160 Speaker 4: since we're in the majority, you're the highest ranking Congressman 574 00:30:10,640 --> 00:30:12,840 Speaker 4: from California that we have in the in the House. 575 00:30:12,880 --> 00:30:16,760 Speaker 4: So and you are now running for re election after 576 00:30:16,880 --> 00:30:21,600 Speaker 4: Prop fifty in now the new district of District forty one. Correct, 577 00:30:22,280 --> 00:30:24,479 Speaker 4: tell us how people can support what you've been doing. 578 00:30:24,520 --> 00:30:27,479 Speaker 4: You've been in the state since ninety three. People, you know, 579 00:30:28,160 --> 00:30:30,520 Speaker 4: need to give you your your just desserts there, sir. 580 00:30:30,760 --> 00:30:32,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's new district. It's District forty. 581 00:30:33,040 --> 00:30:37,320 Speaker 10: They've took a district stuck it in downtown LA so 582 00:30:38,040 --> 00:30:39,880 Speaker 10: to get rid of me once and for all, I guess, 583 00:30:39,920 --> 00:30:40,880 Speaker 10: but that's not going to work. 584 00:30:41,600 --> 00:30:43,240 Speaker 3: We're running a strong campaign. 585 00:30:43,280 --> 00:30:46,680 Speaker 10: Seventy percent of this district is in what I've represent now, 586 00:30:46,720 --> 00:30:49,360 Speaker 10: and we're what I've represented in just a few years. 587 00:30:49,160 --> 00:30:51,640 Speaker 3: Ago, so we feel good about it. 588 00:30:51,640 --> 00:30:56,640 Speaker 10: It's it's difficult because they combined Republicans together because. 589 00:30:56,320 --> 00:30:57,880 Speaker 3: Of this Prop. Fifty. 590 00:30:58,280 --> 00:31:00,840 Speaker 10: I did everything we could to defeat it, but we 591 00:31:01,040 --> 00:31:04,680 Speaker 10: weren't able to for a number of reasons. But that's 592 00:31:04,720 --> 00:31:06,760 Speaker 10: why we need to change how we do business in 593 00:31:06,800 --> 00:31:09,120 Speaker 10: this state. That's why we need voter ID and it 594 00:31:09,200 --> 00:31:11,480 Speaker 10: was mentioned some other things that we need to do 595 00:31:11,520 --> 00:31:13,480 Speaker 10: in the future to clean up the voter rolls, to 596 00:31:14,680 --> 00:31:20,440 Speaker 10: get this ballot harvesting fiasco behind us, a number of 597 00:31:20,480 --> 00:31:23,200 Speaker 10: things to because we would have won.

So we haven't talked about it at all, 649 00:33:54,320 --> 00:33:56,480 Speaker 5: And I think probably the funniest thing about this is 650 00:33:56,480 --> 00:33:58,880 Speaker 5: we're having We've had major protests in Iran about a 651 00:33:58,920 --> 00:34:02,360 Speaker 5: week now, and it's struggled to be above the number 652 00:34:02,360 --> 00:34:06,600 Speaker 5: three story in the US. If that Venezuela's taken precedence, 653 00:34:06,680 --> 00:34:09,960 Speaker 5: the stuff in Minneapolis has taken precedence and so on. 654 00:34:10,040 --> 00:34:12,880 Speaker 5: But we've gotten emails asking us to weigh in on it, 655 00:34:12,920 --> 00:34:14,839 Speaker 5: and I think Charlie would definitely be weighing in on it. 656 00:34:14,960 --> 00:34:21,920 Speaker 5: So there's been a spate of major demonstrations against the Mullus, 657 00:34:21,960 --> 00:34:26,160 Speaker 5: as you might hear them called on TV Iranian ordinary 658 00:34:26,200 --> 00:34:30,280 Speaker 5: Iranians protesting in Tehran and a lot of secondary cities. 659 00:34:30,680 --> 00:34:33,000 Speaker 5: There's a lot of various reports on the ground that 660 00:34:33,040 --> 00:34:36,520 Speaker 5: they know they've set government buildings on fire, they've supposedly 661 00:34:36,560 --> 00:34:41,320 Speaker 5: taken control of large cities. It goes back and forth 662 00:34:41,360 --> 00:34:43,480 Speaker 5: on how accurate all of that is. But what does 663 00:34:43,560 --> 00:34:47,040 Speaker 5: seem to be true is the regime is now trying 664 00:34:47,080 --> 00:34:51,280 Speaker 5: to black out a lot of communications. They're targeting the Internet, 665 00:34:51,320 --> 00:34:55,320 Speaker 5: they're targeting other means of communication to limit people's ability 666 00:34:55,360 --> 00:34:56,960 Speaker 5: to know what's going on and to try to keep 667 00:34:56,960 --> 00:35:01,440 Speaker 5: control of the situation. Notably, a week ago, President Trump 668 00:35:01,520 --> 00:35:05,520 Speaker 5: said on truth Social that image three sixty three. Yes, 669 00:35:05,600 --> 00:35:09,279 Speaker 5: if Iran shots and violently kills peaceful protesters, which is 670 00:35:09,320 --> 00:35:12,400 Speaker 5: their custom, the United States of America will come to 671 00:35:12,520 --> 00:35:15,920 Speaker 5: their rescue. We are locked and loaded and ready to go. 672 00:35:16,080 --> 00:35:20,279 Speaker 5: Thank you for your attention to this matter. And I'm 673 00:35:20,360 --> 00:35:24,040 Speaker 5: seeing more of that. You're seeing some of that agitation 674 00:35:24,280 --> 00:35:26,319 Speaker 5: that the US should be ready to get involved. The 675 00:35:26,320 --> 00:35:30,640 Speaker 5: son of the previous Shah Raisa Pallavi, he desires to 676 00:35:30,680 --> 00:35:32,880 Speaker 5: take power in the country, and he's been saying America 677 00:35:32,920 --> 00:35:36,960 Speaker 5: should be ready to get involved. Obviously, people would ask 678 00:35:37,000 --> 00:35:39,680 Speaker 5: us what Charlie would make of this. I think Charlie 679 00:35:39,719 --> 00:35:42,279 Speaker 5: would still be skeptical of getting involved. He was very, 680 00:35:42,480 --> 00:35:46,200 Speaker 5: very wary of the Iran war crisis we had this 681 00:35:46,239 --> 00:35:48,720 Speaker 5: past summer. He was very happy that it was ultimately 682 00:35:48,760 --> 00:35:52,279 Speaker 5: resolved with one bombing run, nothing else. I think he 683 00:35:53,239 --> 00:35:56,320 Speaker 5: very much likes He likes it us not to get involved, 684 00:35:56,360 --> 00:35:59,200 Speaker 5: and if we do get involved, it's the lightest touch possible, 685 00:35:59,280 --> 00:36:02,120 Speaker 5: you know, those quick in one strike and it's over. 686 00:36:02,360 --> 00:36:04,080 Speaker 5: I think you would have liked the Venezuela raid for 687 00:36:04,120 --> 00:36:06,600 Speaker 5: that same reason. It was one raid and it's over. 688 00:36:07,239 --> 00:36:08,839 Speaker 5: That's what I think his impulse would have been. 689 00:36:08,960 --> 00:36:11,920 Speaker 4: Yeah, and again going back one step. So this started 690 00:36:11,920 --> 00:36:15,960 Speaker 4: apparently there's been a dramatic collapse of the Iranian currency, 691 00:36:16,160 --> 00:36:20,799 Speaker 4: the real soaring inflation so forty to fifty percent in 692 00:36:20,920 --> 00:36:23,480 Speaker 4: recent months, which which you know this country is still 693 00:36:23,480 --> 00:36:26,120 Speaker 4: an upheaval from twenty percent over four years of Joe Biden, 694 00:36:26,160 --> 00:36:29,560 Speaker 4: imagine forty to fifty percent in recent months, rising costs 695 00:36:29,560 --> 00:36:35,160 Speaker 4: of living. This quickly devolved into a broader political movement, 696 00:36:35,400 --> 00:36:39,320 Speaker 4: including calls for regime change, greater freedoms, anti government slogans 697 00:36:39,600 --> 00:36:40,000 Speaker 4: and this is. 698 00:36:40,440 --> 00:36:43,439 Speaker 5: How many how many reals do you think you need 699 00:36:43,480 --> 00:36:45,040 Speaker 5: to have one United States dollar? 700 00:36:45,200 --> 00:36:48,040 Speaker 2: Oh man, I like a thousand. 701 00:36:47,640 --> 00:36:53,800 Speaker 5: Nine hundred and ninety four ey thousand, No, jeez, wow, 702 00:36:54,280 --> 00:36:57,399 Speaker 5: I was off by a magnitude of thousand. You're off 703 00:36:57,400 --> 00:36:59,960 Speaker 5: by literally what is that two three orders of magazine. 704 00:37:00,080 --> 00:37:01,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's huge. Okay, So. 705 00:37:02,960 --> 00:37:06,360 Speaker 4: You know, protesters channing against the ruling theocracy. This reminds 706 00:37:06,400 --> 00:37:08,240 Speaker 4: me of like when you look back at those images 707 00:37:08,280 --> 00:37:11,640 Speaker 4: of Iran in the seventies before the Shah was was 708 00:37:11,719 --> 00:37:14,520 Speaker 4: kicked out, that you know, it looks almost like a 709 00:37:14,520 --> 00:37:16,880 Speaker 4: Western nation, right, And you know, I used to live 710 00:37:16,920 --> 00:37:19,440 Speaker 4: in southern California. A lot of Iranians Persian community down 711 00:37:19,480 --> 00:37:23,640 Speaker 4: there are very you know, enterprising people, very productive people, 712 00:37:23,719 --> 00:37:26,680 Speaker 4: very almost Western. Yes, they're they're Muslim, but it's it's 713 00:37:26,719 --> 00:37:31,440 Speaker 4: a different variety, right the the it's not it's the 714 00:37:31,480 --> 00:37:34,040 Speaker 4: Shia Muslim as opposed to the Sunni. It's a it's 715 00:37:34,040 --> 00:37:37,279 Speaker 4: a different kind of Islam that they that they seem 716 00:37:37,320 --> 00:37:40,760 Speaker 4: culturally to practice. But you know, this is what's interesting. 717 00:37:40,800 --> 00:37:44,000 Speaker 4: This Sha the sons, the son of the last Shah, 718 00:37:44,520 --> 00:37:50,560 Speaker 4: which is Raisa Lavi. He's making actual so one hour 719 00:37:50,680 --> 00:37:53,239 Speaker 4: ago he's saying, this is an urgent and immediate call 720 00:37:53,320 --> 00:37:55,600 Speaker 4: for your attention. This is image three sixty four, if 721 00:37:55,600 --> 00:37:57,960 Speaker 4: we want to put it up there. Last night you 722 00:37:58,000 --> 00:38:00,879 Speaker 4: saw millions of brave Iranians and the reads facing down 723 00:38:00,920 --> 00:38:03,360 Speaker 4: live bullets. Today they are facing not just bullets, but 724 00:38:03,440 --> 00:38:07,279 Speaker 4: total communication blackout, no internet, no landlines. So one of 725 00:38:07,280 --> 00:38:10,160 Speaker 4: the struggles that we're having here, Blake, is that we 726 00:38:10,160 --> 00:38:13,040 Speaker 4: can't even get communications out of Iran. Really it's very limited, 727 00:38:13,080 --> 00:38:15,200 Speaker 4: and we don't know what's ai. What's that there was 728 00:38:15,200 --> 00:38:17,520 Speaker 4: a building burning last night out, Yeah, it's like a 729 00:38:17,560 --> 00:38:18,440 Speaker 4: government building. 730 00:38:18,560 --> 00:38:20,279 Speaker 5: If there is a deep fake of a of a 731 00:38:20,320 --> 00:38:23,480 Speaker 5: building on fire, it's not super obvious immediately. Yeah, if 732 00:38:23,480 --> 00:38:25,719 Speaker 5: it's not true, because they don't have a robust media 733 00:38:25,880 --> 00:38:29,400 Speaker 5: like we could kind of tell something as fake as jours. 734 00:38:29,480 --> 00:38:30,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, everyone see it. 735 00:38:30,960 --> 00:38:32,680 Speaker 5: Ran who knows. 736 00:38:32,760 --> 00:38:34,279 Speaker 4: Yeah, And we're gonna cover this. By the way, we're 737 00:38:34,280 --> 00:38:36,560 Speaker 4: gonna have a guest on on Monday. I've been working 738 00:38:36,560 --> 00:38:39,279 Speaker 4: behind the scenes to get a really good expert on 739 00:38:39,320 --> 00:38:43,560 Speaker 4: this story on Monday. But this is what he goes on. Kamanee, 740 00:38:43,920 --> 00:38:46,200 Speaker 4: fearing the end of his criminal regime at the hands 741 00:38:46,200 --> 00:38:48,840 Speaker 4: of the people, and with the help of your powerful promise, 742 00:38:48,880 --> 00:38:51,279 Speaker 4: he's speaking to President Trump to support the protesters, has 743 00:38:51,280 --> 00:38:54,080 Speaker 4: threatened the people in the streets with a brutal crackdown. 744 00:38:54,120 --> 00:38:57,480 Speaker 4: Now there's reports of at least fifty people have been 745 00:38:57,760 --> 00:39:02,120 Speaker 4: killed in the skirmishes with UH with you know, I 746 00:39:02,160 --> 00:39:06,719 Speaker 4: suppose the regime's UH muscle UH clashing with protesters on 747 00:39:06,760 --> 00:39:09,280 Speaker 4: the streets has threatened people in the streets with brutal crackdown. 748 00:39:09,480 --> 00:39:12,120 Speaker 4: He wants to use this blackout to murder these young heroes. 749 00:39:12,120 --> 00:39:14,440 Speaker 4: So this has been a very youth oriented movement. A 750 00:39:14,440 --> 00:39:16,839 Speaker 4: lot of students, a lot of merchants that have been 751 00:39:16,840 --> 00:39:20,359 Speaker 4: struggling under this merchant merchants, merchants. 752 00:39:23,440 --> 00:39:27,720 Speaker 5: And these are business people, Camel Caro probably probably. 753 00:39:27,280 --> 00:39:29,919 Speaker 4: Like smaller businesses though, right, like the people that are 754 00:39:30,040 --> 00:39:32,120 Speaker 4: actually trying to make a living in Iran. 755 00:39:32,480 --> 00:39:33,400 Speaker 2: I've called and the people. 756 00:39:33,560 --> 00:39:35,440 Speaker 4: UH called the people to the streets to fight for 757 00:39:35,480 --> 00:39:38,040 Speaker 4: their freedom and to overwhelm the security forces with sheer numbers. 758 00:39:38,120 --> 00:39:40,000 Speaker 2: Last night they did that. Your threat to. 759 00:39:39,960 --> 00:39:42,719 Speaker 4: This criminal regime has also kept the regimes thugs at bay. 760 00:39:43,000 --> 00:39:44,640 Speaker 4: But times of the essence that people will be on 761 00:39:44,680 --> 00:39:47,319 Speaker 4: the streets again in an hour. I'm asking you to help. 762 00:39:47,360 --> 00:39:49,440 Speaker 4: You have proven and I know you are a man 763 00:39:49,480 --> 00:39:51,200 Speaker 4: of peace and a man of your word. Please be 764 00:39:51,239 --> 00:39:53,279 Speaker 4: prepared to intervene to help the people of around now. 765 00:39:53,320 --> 00:39:55,919 Speaker 2: I don't know what he's calling for, uh, I mean 766 00:39:56,200 --> 00:39:57,400 Speaker 2: military intervention. 767 00:39:57,600 --> 00:39:58,279 Speaker 5: Last time we did this. 768 00:39:58,320 --> 00:40:00,960 Speaker 4: It was like Libya, and and if there's a way 769 00:40:01,440 --> 00:40:04,040 Speaker 4: for President Trump, even morally to support the people of 770 00:40:04,080 --> 00:40:06,560 Speaker 4: around Araja up and take over their own country, I'm 771 00:40:06,600 --> 00:40:07,200 Speaker 4: all for it. 772 00:40:07,960 --> 00:40:11,239 Speaker 2: To your point, I do not want to invite a. 773 00:40:11,239 --> 00:40:15,800 Speaker 5: Reason for optimism, as you say, Iran is it long, 774 00:40:15,880 --> 00:40:21,440 Speaker 5: It's long been a major civilization. It's a relatively it 775 00:40:21,480 --> 00:40:24,120 Speaker 5: is a it was a relatively more modern Middle Eastern 776 00:40:24,120 --> 00:40:28,440 Speaker 5: country before the revolution. They have they're very talented people. 777 00:40:28,440 --> 00:40:32,280 Speaker 5: This is not like intervening in Central Africa or something 778 00:40:32,280 --> 00:40:34,400 Speaker 5: where it's just been backwards for a long time and 779 00:40:34,480 --> 00:40:38,200 Speaker 5: it's not likely to go well. Iran is it is 780 00:40:38,239 --> 00:40:41,280 Speaker 5: a country that is already in a lot of places 781 00:40:41,360 --> 00:40:44,759 Speaker 5: quite secular on the ground. You can meet Iranians who 782 00:40:44,800 --> 00:40:46,640 Speaker 5: are from that country and they'll often say, yeah, a 783 00:40:46,680 --> 00:40:50,879 Speaker 5: lot of people don't take Islam terribly seriously. I'd say 784 00:40:50,920 --> 00:40:53,759 Speaker 5: it's a lot less other than the regime itself, it's 785 00:40:53,760 --> 00:40:57,000 Speaker 5: a lot less robust than it might be in Egypt, 786 00:40:57,160 --> 00:41:00,279 Speaker 5: or in Iraq or certainly in Afghanistan. So if you 787 00:41:00,280 --> 00:41:02,120 Speaker 5: do topple the regime, I think you're very likely to 788 00:41:02,200 --> 00:41:06,479 Speaker 5: get a secular, friendly government back. But people would always 789 00:41:06,480 --> 00:41:08,120 Speaker 5: ask you know what would Charlie make of this, and 790 00:41:08,160 --> 00:41:11,880 Speaker 5: I think I would share with him. You get talked 791 00:41:11,920 --> 00:41:14,800 Speaker 5: into these interventions by being told it'll be easy and smooth, 792 00:41:14,840 --> 00:41:16,160 Speaker 5: and it never and it never is. 793 00:41:22,480 --> 00:41:24,560 Speaker 9: For more on many of these stories and news you 794 00:41:24,600 --> 00:41:26,600 Speaker 9: can trust, go to Charliekirk dot com
