1
00:00:05,160 --> 00:00:10,760
Speaker 1: Line from the Heartbaer and the Crossroads of America. It's

2
00:00:10,840 --> 00:00:14,960
Speaker 1: Tony Katz today. How is it even remotely possible that

3
00:00:15,040 --> 00:00:18,560
Speaker 1: a political party can be so wrong on so many things?

4
00:00:18,720 --> 00:00:21,919
Speaker 1: And still we can take a look at the upcoming

5
00:00:21,960 --> 00:00:25,560
Speaker 1: midterms No. Twenty twenty sixth and say these things will

6
00:00:25,560 --> 00:00:28,440
Speaker 1: be close. How is that possible?

7
00:00:28,480 --> 00:00:31,400
Speaker 2: Well, it's possible because the left is not voting on

8
00:00:31,520 --> 00:00:34,680
Speaker 2: any of the things their party is doing. It's voting

9
00:00:34,720 --> 00:00:40,240
Speaker 2: based on Trump, evil Republicans, fascist, democracy at stake.

10
00:00:40,880 --> 00:00:43,000
Speaker 1: When your conversation.

11
00:00:42,440 --> 00:00:46,320
Speaker 2: Is emotional and not rational, not looking at the things

12
00:00:46,440 --> 00:00:50,879
Speaker 2: actually happening, but what you're told is happening, Well, what

13
00:00:50,920 --> 00:00:52,800
Speaker 2: else would you possibly expect?

14
00:00:52,880 --> 00:00:56,520
Speaker 1: Tony Katz, Tony Katz today? What is going on? Everybody?

Speaker 1: The YouTube Tony Kats. It's an easy, easy gotta find.

19
00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:08,960
Speaker 1: If you know my name, you can figure out the rest.

20
00:01:10,080 --> 00:01:13,680
Speaker 2: You take a look at how they talk about threat

21
00:01:13,680 --> 00:01:17,480
Speaker 2: to democracy, Threat to democracy, threat to democracy, that's all

22
00:01:17,520 --> 00:01:20,679
Speaker 2: they talk about, and you will get people who think

23
00:01:20,840 --> 00:01:23,639
Speaker 2: that is somehow the subject even though there's no threat.

24
00:01:24,120 --> 00:01:25,640
Speaker 1: I've got judges.

25
00:01:25,200 --> 00:01:27,319
Speaker 2: Saying you can't do this, you can't do that, you

26
00:01:27,400 --> 00:01:29,720
Speaker 2: can't engage tariffs, you can't repatriate kids.

27
00:01:29,760 --> 00:01:30,440
Speaker 1: I'll get to that.

28
00:01:31,120 --> 00:01:35,160
Speaker 2: And the Trump administration listens and they fight back against

29
00:01:35,200 --> 00:01:37,760
Speaker 2: it in the courts. A guy who was a dictator,

30
00:01:37,800 --> 00:01:40,120
Speaker 2: who was a threat to democracy would just do what

31
00:01:40,160 --> 00:01:43,479
Speaker 2: he does anyway and then execute the judges. But since

32
00:01:43,520 --> 00:01:48,000
Speaker 2: that doesn't happen, every single argument about Trump is threat

33
00:01:48,040 --> 00:01:51,480
Speaker 2: to democracy or Trump is authoritarian or dictator, etc. Falls

34
00:01:51,520 --> 00:01:54,840
Speaker 2: by the wayside. But it doesn't stop them. It doesn't

35
00:01:54,840 --> 00:01:56,960
Speaker 2: stop the left from saying it, and it doesn't stop

36
00:01:57,000 --> 00:02:01,080
Speaker 2: fools from flat out believing it. So on the subject

37
00:02:01,120 --> 00:02:03,960
Speaker 2: of a legal immigration and on the subject of crime,

38
00:02:04,480 --> 00:02:07,320
Speaker 2: the political left has decided to be as Evan say,

39
00:02:07,360 --> 00:02:10,120
Speaker 2: it would describe it as wrong as wrong can be.

40
00:02:11,560 --> 00:02:15,040
Speaker 2: You could not be more wrong, You could not be

41
00:02:15,639 --> 00:02:21,200
Speaker 2: more absolutely on the side of the hellscape than the

42
00:02:21,240 --> 00:02:25,320
Speaker 2: Democratic Party. When the people know that the crime is

43
00:02:25,320 --> 00:02:28,359
Speaker 2: out of control and has been out of control. And

44
00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:31,640
Speaker 2: even if you want to argue the data shows that

45
00:02:31,760 --> 00:02:33,360
Speaker 2: crime is decreasing.

46
00:02:33,160 --> 00:02:34,360
Speaker 1: Do you believe the numbers?

47
00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:38,200
Speaker 2: I mean this is do you believe the CDC when

48
00:02:38,200 --> 00:02:40,119
Speaker 2: they say, well, we're on your side and we give

49
00:02:40,120 --> 00:02:42,560
Speaker 2: you the true information you did in about six feet

50
00:02:42,560 --> 00:02:45,560
Speaker 2: of separation. You wouldn't let us talk about COVID vaccines.

51
00:02:46,680 --> 00:02:49,040
Speaker 2: You think we believe you, We don't believe you.

52
00:02:49,720 --> 00:02:50,520
Speaker 1: We've seen you.

53
00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:55,760
Speaker 2: Engage in the manipulation of data, leaving out data when

54
00:02:55,760 --> 00:02:58,079
Speaker 2: it comes to crime. So why would we believe you

55
00:02:58,120 --> 00:03:00,520
Speaker 2: when you tell his crime is down? And oh, by

56
00:03:00,520 --> 00:03:03,000
Speaker 2: the way, we have our eyes, and our eyes tell

57
00:03:03,080 --> 00:03:04,520
Speaker 2: us that things are really bad.

58
00:03:05,680 --> 00:03:08,960
Speaker 1: I mean the amount of you take a look at DC.

59
00:03:09,960 --> 00:03:11,760
Speaker 1: Have you seen these numbers?

60
00:03:11,760 --> 00:03:13,600
Speaker 2: And of course the left wants to tell you that

61
00:03:13,639 --> 00:03:18,400
Speaker 2: these numbers aren't real. The amount that crime is down

62
00:03:18,680 --> 00:03:24,960
Speaker 2: in Washington, d C. Since President Trump has engaged is

63
00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:31,919
Speaker 2: absolutely through the roof. It's insane how well it's been going.

64
00:03:33,440 --> 00:03:37,800
Speaker 2: Why would anybody want to be on the side of

65
00:03:37,960 --> 00:03:41,800
Speaker 2: not being proactive about dealing with crime, even if you

66
00:03:41,880 --> 00:03:47,240
Speaker 2: want to argue that Trump shouldn't be in Chicago, right,

67
00:03:48,400 --> 00:03:52,520
Speaker 2: even if you want to argue that that's different than

68
00:03:52,520 --> 00:03:56,040
Speaker 2: whether or not Chicago should be involved in Chicago.

69
00:03:57,520 --> 00:04:00,160
Speaker 1: But instead you get the mayor.

70
00:04:01,440 --> 00:04:05,520
Speaker 3: Saying that Donald Trump, we have received credible reports that

71
00:04:05,760 --> 00:04:09,920
Speaker 3: we have days, not weeks before our city see some

72
00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:12,920
Speaker 3: type of militarized activity by the federal government.

73
00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:17,400
Speaker 4: It is unclear at this time what that will look

74
00:04:17,480 --> 00:04:22,279
Speaker 4: like exactly. We may see militarized immigration enforcement. We may

75
00:04:22,320 --> 00:04:27,280
Speaker 4: also see National Guard troops. We may even see active

76
00:04:27,360 --> 00:04:33,120
Speaker 4: duty military and armed vehicles in our streets. We have

77
00:04:33,240 --> 00:04:38,640
Speaker 4: not called for this, our people have not asked for this,

78
00:04:40,279 --> 00:04:43,400
Speaker 4: but nevertheless we find ourselves having to respond to this.

79
00:04:45,120 --> 00:04:48,880
Speaker 4: That may be absolutely clear. Although we believe the reports

80
00:04:48,920 --> 00:04:54,520
Speaker 4: we have received are highly credible, this is a n erratic,

81
00:04:54,800 --> 00:05:00,680
Speaker 4: impulsive administration and it is not all we It's possible

82
00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:03,240
Speaker 4: to understand and know exactly.

83
00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:03,840
Speaker 1: How he will move.

84
00:05:04,760 --> 00:05:08,120
Speaker 2: Erratic and impulsive, as opposed to the Democratic Party, which

85
00:05:08,200 --> 00:05:11,240
Speaker 2: has no pulse or certainly not a finger on the pulse.

86
00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:15,040
Speaker 2: Understanding that Americans are exhausted by the crime by people

87
00:05:15,080 --> 00:05:18,159
Speaker 2: stealing from the local target or TJ Max or whatever else,

88
00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:21,800
Speaker 2: people defecating on the streets, people being zombies because of

89
00:05:21,800 --> 00:05:24,680
Speaker 2: all the drugs on the streets, and of course no

90
00:05:24,839 --> 00:05:30,159
Speaker 2: prosecutor actually engaging in prosecution because that's racist. If a

91
00:05:30,200 --> 00:05:33,560
Speaker 2: black person commits a crime, that black person needs to

92
00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:35,680
Speaker 2: deal with that crime. And if a white person commits

93
00:05:35,720 --> 00:05:38,320
Speaker 2: a crime, that white person has to deal with that crime.

94
00:05:39,160 --> 00:05:39,680
Speaker 1: The end.

95
00:05:40,760 --> 00:05:44,159
Speaker 2: Enough with people screaming about bigotry, this and racism that.

96
00:05:44,680 --> 00:05:48,799
Speaker 1: On the basics, if the crime is committed.

97
00:05:49,360 --> 00:05:52,080
Speaker 2: Then there should be prosecution of the crime. This is

98
00:05:52,080 --> 00:05:57,240
Speaker 2: what rational Americans think. If the crime is committed, prosecute

99
00:05:57,480 --> 00:06:00,920
Speaker 2: the crime. But you've gotten the air of Chicago as

100
00:06:00,960 --> 00:06:03,600
Speaker 2: we were just hearing, and he will back it up.

101
00:06:04,880 --> 00:06:07,560
Speaker 2: When it comes to crime, we don't do anything. But

102
00:06:07,640 --> 00:06:09,800
Speaker 2: when it comes to resistant Trump.

103
00:06:09,680 --> 00:06:12,400
Speaker 4: Still, we take these threats seriously, and we find ourselves

104
00:06:12,400 --> 00:06:16,000
Speaker 4: in a position where we must take immediate, drastic action

105
00:06:16,120 --> 00:06:20,720
Speaker 4: to protect our people from federal overreach. I'm signing an

106
00:06:20,760 --> 00:06:25,680
Speaker 4: executive order today that will launch the Protecting Chicago initiatives.

107
00:06:26,560 --> 00:06:28,360
Speaker 4: This is a project that builds on the months of

108
00:06:28,440 --> 00:06:29,200
Speaker 4: preparation that.

109
00:06:29,200 --> 00:06:29,719
Speaker 1: We have done.

110
00:06:29,760 --> 00:06:34,040
Speaker 4: That we've done that has led up to this very moment.

111
00:06:34,839 --> 00:06:38,560
Speaker 4: Protecting Chicago will ensure that every Chicagoan knows their rights,

112
00:06:39,040 --> 00:06:42,680
Speaker 4: that every single family is prepared, and every part of

113
00:06:42,760 --> 00:06:45,400
Speaker 4: city government is directed to protect the people of Chicago

114
00:06:45,560 --> 00:06:46,599
Speaker 4: from federal action.

115
00:06:48,400 --> 00:06:50,800
Speaker 2: So when it comes to protecting the people of Chicago,

116
00:06:51,120 --> 00:06:54,240
Speaker 2: from the criminal element. We don't do that, and if

117
00:06:54,279 --> 00:06:56,279
Speaker 2: you want to do that, you're a racist. Rich is

118
00:06:56,320 --> 00:07:00,120
Speaker 2: how Brandon Johnson, the mayor, goes about discussing it. When

119
00:07:00,160 --> 00:07:02,320
Speaker 2: it comes to protecting the city from Donald Trump. Oh

120
00:07:02,360 --> 00:07:05,080
Speaker 2: we've got everything without executive orders. Are lining people up

121
00:07:06,040 --> 00:07:12,440
Speaker 2: one hundred and eighty degrees opposed to rational thought, is

122
00:07:12,760 --> 00:07:18,560
Speaker 2: Mayor Johnson. This is where the Democratic Party is. And

123
00:07:18,720 --> 00:07:23,040
Speaker 2: over there at Fox News, they were interviewing people from Chicago.

124
00:07:25,240 --> 00:07:29,240
Speaker 5: Years from bad to worse. They just getting worse and

125
00:07:29,320 --> 00:07:33,000
Speaker 5: works every day every day. You know the local media

126
00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:37,920
Speaker 5: sometimes they report the crying for one day and that's it.

127
00:07:39,120 --> 00:07:42,560
Speaker 5: So he've just gone from bad words to disasters.

128
00:07:43,720 --> 00:07:44,720
Speaker 1: So that's Chicago.

129
00:07:45,120 --> 00:07:48,600
Speaker 2: That is a black man wearing a Make America Great

130
00:07:48,640 --> 00:07:51,560
Speaker 2: Again hat discussing how bad things are.

131
00:07:52,040 --> 00:07:53,120
Speaker 1: No one really feels safe.

132
00:07:53,200 --> 00:07:55,080
Speaker 4: It's impossible to feel safe for that city like this,

133
00:07:55,680 --> 00:07:56,920
Speaker 4: especially with the leadership we have.

134
00:07:59,080 --> 00:08:02,480
Speaker 1: That's two. It goes on and on and on and on.

135
00:08:02,760 --> 00:08:04,120
Speaker 1: This comes from Fox News.

136
00:08:04,400 --> 00:08:07,880
Speaker 2: Now you can argue, well they cherry picked that, maybe,

137
00:08:08,680 --> 00:08:13,640
Speaker 2: but you can't deny that these men speaking into the camera,

138
00:08:14,080 --> 00:08:17,720
Speaker 2: speaking about what's happening in their city aren't saying what

139
00:08:17,880 --> 00:08:22,880
Speaker 2: it is they're experiencing. You cannot deny that they are

140
00:08:23,160 --> 00:08:28,120
Speaker 2: making the points that Chicago is unsafe. Because if you're

141
00:08:28,160 --> 00:08:30,800
Speaker 2: calling them a liar, if you're calling all these men liars,

142
00:08:31,160 --> 00:08:34,880
Speaker 2: please give me enough time to get some bourbon, some popcorn,

143
00:08:35,160 --> 00:08:37,240
Speaker 2: and a lawn chair. I just want to watch you

144
00:08:37,360 --> 00:08:40,439
Speaker 2: call them a liar and then see what happens the

145
00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:41,960
Speaker 2: people want to call them liars.

146
00:08:42,080 --> 00:08:45,679
Speaker 1: I just want a front row to see what happens

147
00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:48,559
Speaker 1: when you call them liars. They're not liars.

148
00:08:49,679 --> 00:08:54,600
Speaker 2: They're honestly addressing the situation and proving to the progressive

149
00:08:55,040 --> 00:08:59,319
Speaker 2: that not everybody thinks alike. Your hatred of Trump clouds

150
00:08:59,600 --> 00:09:04,760
Speaker 2: your national mind. Hate rots the brain. By the way,

151
00:09:04,800 --> 00:09:08,199
Speaker 2: I was talking about the statistics. Here are the statistics.

152
00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:12,880
Speaker 2: Carjackings in DC down eighty seven percent. Violent crime is

153
00:09:12,920 --> 00:09:16,559
Speaker 2: down forty five percent. Arrests are up twenty percent, illegal

154
00:09:16,600 --> 00:09:19,880
Speaker 2: gun recoveries are up twelve percent. That according to Fox

155
00:09:19,960 --> 00:09:23,520
Speaker 2: five DC, the most significant thing we are highlighting today

156
00:09:23,679 --> 00:09:25,760
Speaker 2: is the area of crime that was most troubling for

157
00:09:25,880 --> 00:09:28,280
Speaker 2: us in twenty twenty three, and we have driven it

158
00:09:28,400 --> 00:09:31,800
Speaker 2: down over the last year. We know that when carjackings

159
00:09:31,920 --> 00:09:33,880
Speaker 2: go down, when the use of guns go down, when

160
00:09:33,920 --> 00:09:37,200
Speaker 2: homicide or robbery go down, neighborhoods feel safer and are

161
00:09:37,360 --> 00:09:41,600
Speaker 2: safer that according to the mayor, Muriel Bowser, who Trump

162
00:09:41,760 --> 00:09:44,520
Speaker 2: is out there applauding and saying, hey, thanks for working

163
00:09:44,600 --> 00:09:44,920
Speaker 2: with us.

164
00:09:45,960 --> 00:09:48,880
Speaker 1: Things are going great. You know now people like you

165
00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:51,600
Speaker 1: because you're letting us help you do this job.

166
00:09:52,120 --> 00:09:56,160
Speaker 2: You know, perfect Trump kind of speak here. And of

167
00:09:56,280 --> 00:09:59,480
Speaker 2: course the mayor for showing any kind of hey, well,

168
00:09:59,520 --> 00:10:01,520
Speaker 2: this is the thing, are better is going to get

169
00:10:01,559 --> 00:10:05,400
Speaker 2: abused for that because you can't admit to the actual

170
00:10:05,559 --> 00:10:09,199
Speaker 2: problem itself. So not only does the leftist do nothing

171
00:10:09,240 --> 00:10:13,199
Speaker 2: about crime, the leftist doesn't even admit that crime is

172
00:10:13,320 --> 00:10:17,280
Speaker 2: a problem, which just shows how completely out of touch

173
00:10:17,360 --> 00:10:20,040
Speaker 2: and willfully out of touch they are. And their answer

174
00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:24,760
Speaker 2: is Trump Hitler. And yet that still has some effect,

175
00:10:26,000 --> 00:10:27,000
Speaker 2: that still works.

176
00:10:27,040 --> 00:10:29,160
Speaker 1: There are a lot of people who will stick their

177
00:10:29,240 --> 00:10:31,240
Speaker 1: head in the sands or up some other part of

178
00:10:31,280 --> 00:10:33,800
Speaker 1: themselves instead of realize the truth.

179
00:10:34,240 --> 00:10:36,240
Speaker 2: Some people are willing to speak the truth. And this,

180
00:10:36,360 --> 00:10:39,120
Speaker 2: of course is the most dangerous thing to the Democratic Party.

181
00:10:40,200 --> 00:10:43,000
Speaker 2: You know, it's often described as leaving the plantation and

182
00:10:43,200 --> 00:10:46,520
Speaker 2: absolutely true and accurate, and they say, wait a second,

183
00:10:46,559 --> 00:10:47,160
Speaker 2: it doesn't have to.

184
00:10:47,160 --> 00:10:47,599
Speaker 4: Be like this.

185
00:10:48,160 --> 00:10:50,839
Speaker 2: My eyes are open. These people won't admit to the

186
00:10:50,920 --> 00:10:55,840
Speaker 2: problems going on. This brings us to LA, from DC

187
00:10:56,000 --> 00:11:01,679
Speaker 2: to Chicago to LA where you have a member of

188
00:11:01,800 --> 00:11:06,320
Speaker 2: the Los Angeles City Council Isabelle Herado.

189
00:11:07,280 --> 00:11:12,920
Speaker 1: Who took to Instagram to scream at home depot and

190
00:11:13,040 --> 00:11:18,679
Speaker 1: You're like, I'm sorry, what now? Home Depot has no

191
00:11:18,960 --> 00:11:21,520
Speaker 1: place in Eagle Rock. Now. Eagle Rock.

192
00:11:22,840 --> 00:11:27,720
Speaker 2: Is outside of the San Fernando Valley, northeast Los Angeles,

193
00:11:28,120 --> 00:11:29,320
Speaker 2: San Raphael Hills.

194
00:11:30,040 --> 00:11:37,000
Speaker 1: Eagle Rock is beautiful, beautiful, is Eagle Rock? You would

195
00:11:37,200 --> 00:11:39,320
Speaker 1: drive through Eagle Rock?

196
00:11:39,480 --> 00:11:39,600
Speaker 4: Oh?

197
00:11:39,679 --> 00:11:41,599
Speaker 1: What was the area that you were going to get to?

198
00:11:42,520 --> 00:11:42,679
Speaker 4: Oh?

199
00:11:42,880 --> 00:11:46,120
Speaker 1: I know this, I know this, I know this, I

200
00:11:46,240 --> 00:11:50,280
Speaker 1: know this, I know this. Pasadena. Dang it, how could

201
00:11:50,320 --> 00:11:55,240
Speaker 1: I forget? Pasadena is gorgeous, gorgeous. North of that is

202
00:11:55,320 --> 00:12:01,320
Speaker 1: lakea YadA Flintridge and its beautiful, beautiful, full area might

203
00:12:01,400 --> 00:12:04,240
Speaker 1: still be considered the San Fernando Valley. It could still

204
00:12:04,280 --> 00:12:07,280
Speaker 1: be considered the San Fernanda Valley. All right, it's gorgeous.

205
00:12:08,080 --> 00:12:12,679
Speaker 1: It is lived, lived not far from that area for

206
00:12:13,120 --> 00:12:15,880
Speaker 1: a long long time, well six years. I don't know

207
00:12:15,920 --> 00:12:16,920
Speaker 1: it's considered a long time.

208
00:12:17,679 --> 00:12:22,280
Speaker 2: So the counselor says home Depot has no place in

209
00:12:22,360 --> 00:12:22,920
Speaker 2: Eagle Rock.

210
00:12:23,040 --> 00:12:25,760
Speaker 1: Here's what it is that the councilor rites.

211
00:12:26,880 --> 00:12:30,559
Speaker 2: Yesterday morning, federal agents conducted a warrantless raid at the

212
00:12:30,600 --> 00:12:33,720
Speaker 2: West Lake Home Depot, the fourth attack on this location

213
00:12:33,880 --> 00:12:36,839
Speaker 2: since June. These raids are part of a disturbing pattern

214
00:12:36,880 --> 00:12:41,000
Speaker 2: across Los Angeles, with ICE repeatedly targeting home depot, parking lot,

215
00:12:41,520 --> 00:12:45,599
Speaker 2: common gathering spots for day laborers without judicial warrants and

216
00:12:45,679 --> 00:12:47,200
Speaker 2: clear violation of people's rights.

217
00:12:47,240 --> 00:12:50,920
Speaker 1: And yet home depots remain silent. When your name.

218
00:12:50,840 --> 00:12:53,880
Speaker 2: Becomes associated with terror and you refuse to speak, you

219
00:12:53,960 --> 00:12:54,640
Speaker 2: are complicit.

220
00:12:55,040 --> 00:12:58,280
Speaker 1: Home depots chosen power and profit over the working people

221
00:12:58,320 --> 00:12:59,040
Speaker 1: who sustain it.

222
00:12:59,679 --> 00:13:03,559
Speaker 2: That is why I unequivocally oppose Home Depot coming to

223
00:13:03,640 --> 00:13:06,000
Speaker 2: Eagle Rock Plaza, a mall that has long been a

224
00:13:06,080 --> 00:13:08,760
Speaker 2: gathering place for the Filipino community in Los Angeles.

225
00:13:09,160 --> 00:13:11,720
Speaker 1: I will not allow violence to take root in or neighborhoods.

226
00:13:11,920 --> 00:13:15,800
Speaker 2: Our communities deserve safety, dignity, and businesses that fight for people,

227
00:13:15,920 --> 00:13:19,640
Speaker 2: not against them. I think home depots should uproot and

228
00:13:19,920 --> 00:13:25,480
Speaker 2: leave California immediately. If not sooner bye, we don't need

229
00:13:25,559 --> 00:13:29,880
Speaker 2: to be here. If people are here illegally and they're

230
00:13:29,920 --> 00:13:33,679
Speaker 2: actually gathering somewhere, well then ICE is smart to go

231
00:13:33,800 --> 00:13:36,280
Speaker 2: after them where they gather. And if you think that

232
00:13:36,440 --> 00:13:40,560
Speaker 2: Home Depot should stand up to Immigrations and Customs enforcement

233
00:13:40,840 --> 00:13:44,320
Speaker 2: with what nail guns and ladders, what do you want

234
00:13:44,400 --> 00:13:49,480
Speaker 2: them to do? No, you're not allowed to engage the

235
00:13:49,679 --> 00:13:51,120
Speaker 2: lawful work you're doing here.

236
00:13:51,679 --> 00:13:54,319
Speaker 1: It's an insane thought, you know.

237
00:13:54,360 --> 00:13:57,120
Speaker 2: I've always thought it crazy that you go to a

238
00:13:57,200 --> 00:14:01,800
Speaker 2: convenience store and you buy beer and the clerk there

239
00:14:02,400 --> 00:14:05,839
Speaker 2: cards you has to check your ID, and if somehow

240
00:14:05,880 --> 00:14:07,599
Speaker 2: they don't check it right or they don't notice that

241
00:14:07,679 --> 00:14:07,840
Speaker 2: it is.

242
00:14:07,840 --> 00:14:11,559
Speaker 1: A fake ID, the clerk gets fined. The clerk is

243
00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:12,840
Speaker 1: not an agent of the government.

244
00:14:13,280 --> 00:14:16,719
Speaker 2: The clerk is not there to act out on the

245
00:14:16,800 --> 00:14:20,400
Speaker 2: government's behalf and be able to offer site, you know,

246
00:14:20,520 --> 00:14:24,200
Speaker 2: issue citations or make the claim that this idea is

247
00:14:24,280 --> 00:14:26,880
Speaker 2: not what you claim it is. That's a law enforcement job.

248
00:14:27,160 --> 00:14:29,760
Speaker 2: And if law enforcement wants that, tell the state to

249
00:14:29,840 --> 00:14:32,640
Speaker 2: pay to have somebody at every convenience jour in every

250
00:14:32,680 --> 00:14:36,160
Speaker 2: place it sells beer checking ID. It's up to the business.

251
00:14:36,240 --> 00:14:39,160
Speaker 2: You find the business if somebody uses a fake idea.

252
00:14:39,200 --> 00:14:42,040
Speaker 2: I always thought that was an insane request, like a

253
00:14:42,160 --> 00:14:45,400
Speaker 2: nutty thing to do. Tell the state if they want

254
00:14:45,400 --> 00:14:48,200
Speaker 2: to enforce their laws, tell them to enforce the laws.

255
00:14:49,080 --> 00:14:52,440
Speaker 1: What are they doing to the to poor clerk? Good

256
00:14:52,520 --> 00:14:55,520
Speaker 1: gosh am I the only person who ever noticed this?

257
00:14:56,160 --> 00:14:56,640
Speaker 1: I can't be.

258
00:14:57,320 --> 00:14:59,840
Speaker 2: I can't be the only person who ever noticed this.

259
00:15:01,480 --> 00:15:04,320
Speaker 2: But why should home depot get in the way? How

260
00:15:04,360 --> 00:15:06,880
Speaker 2: could home depot get in the way? Why would anybody

261
00:15:06,960 --> 00:15:09,080
Speaker 2: ask home depot to get in the way.

262
00:15:09,760 --> 00:15:13,080
Speaker 1: But when you believe that the illegal immigrant is more

263
00:15:13,160 --> 00:15:17,520
Speaker 1: important than the laws of the United States, you're backwards.

264
00:15:17,840 --> 00:15:20,320
Speaker 1: And this is a city councilor.

265
00:15:22,560 --> 00:15:27,120
Speaker 2: These elected officials are on the wrong side of everything.

266
00:15:27,160 --> 00:15:30,360
Speaker 1: All the time, and they are on the wrong side.

267
00:15:30,600 --> 00:15:36,520
Speaker 2: Joyfully, willfully wantonly and one would think that they would

268
00:15:36,600 --> 00:15:39,960
Speaker 2: pay a price for their ignorance, But the answer is

269
00:15:40,320 --> 00:15:44,400
Speaker 2: they rarely do, because they say Trump threat to democracy.

270
00:15:44,800 --> 00:15:47,600
Speaker 2: And all of these leftists in Eagle Rock, or in

271
00:15:47,720 --> 00:15:50,280
Speaker 2: Chicago or in DC are still going to vote for

272
00:15:50,360 --> 00:15:55,320
Speaker 2: the progressive That's how good the Democrats are at tying

273
00:15:55,840 --> 00:15:59,760
Speaker 2: and making these connections and building it in and never stopping.

274
00:16:00,880 --> 00:16:05,600
Speaker 1: And Republicans not Trump. Republicans are awful at breaking that apart.

275
00:16:05,960 --> 00:16:09,800
Speaker 1: They're awful at doing that on their own. They're just

276
00:16:10,960 --> 00:16:11,800
Speaker 1: awful about it.

277
00:16:12,520 --> 00:16:17,239
Speaker 2: They don't fight back, they don't push back. Absolute nothingness.

278
00:16:19,440 --> 00:16:23,920
Speaker 2: Democrats are wrong on crime, from coast to coast, from

279
00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:26,880
Speaker 2: the coast to the Midwest. To the coast is Chicago,

280
00:16:26,960 --> 00:16:29,240
Speaker 2: the Midwest. We'll say this in the sake of the conversation.

281
00:16:29,440 --> 00:16:34,200
Speaker 2: Go with me on this one. They're wrong, and they're

282
00:16:34,320 --> 00:16:38,880
Speaker 2: proudly wrong, and yet it's not going to stop them

283
00:16:38,920 --> 00:16:42,800
Speaker 2: from being competitive in November of twenty twenty six. And

284
00:16:43,080 --> 00:16:46,200
Speaker 2: you have to be aware of that, and you have

285
00:16:46,360 --> 00:16:49,120
Speaker 2: to be campaigning, and you have to be getting out there,

286
00:16:49,480 --> 00:16:52,160
Speaker 2: and you have to be fighting, because no election is

287
00:16:52,240 --> 00:16:57,320
Speaker 2: guaranteed no matter how wrong these progressives are. I'm Tony Katz,
