1 00:00:05,200 --> 00:00:10,800 Speaker 1: Live from the Heartland and the crossroads of America. It's 2 00:00:10,840 --> 00:00:13,960 Speaker 1: Tony Katz Today. Why in the world is there such 3 00:00:13,960 --> 00:00:18,400 Speaker 1: a push to discredit Nick Shirley. What's the what is 4 00:00:18,440 --> 00:00:24,720 Speaker 1: the win there? Why would anybody be upset with the 5 00:00:24,760 --> 00:00:28,560 Speaker 1: guy who heard about fraud went to look for himself 6 00:00:28,880 --> 00:00:31,120 Speaker 1: and found that there's a whole bunch of fraud going 7 00:00:31,160 --> 00:00:35,240 Speaker 1: on in Minnesota regarding these daycare centers. Tony Katz, Tony 8 00:00:35,360 --> 00:00:38,320 Speaker 1: Katz Today, good to be with you find everything at 9 00:00:38,320 --> 00:00:41,560 Speaker 1: Tony Katz dot com. I just learned about a guy 10 00:00:41,640 --> 00:00:44,920 Speaker 1: by the name of j Coles. He is a reporter 11 00:00:45,040 --> 00:00:51,159 Speaker 1: with KSTP in Minnesota, and he actually reported on this 12 00:00:51,320 --> 00:00:58,960 Speaker 1: same exact story months ago, like at the beginning of 13 00:00:59,040 --> 00:01:03,680 Speaker 1: twenty twenty five, he was reporting on this exact stuff. 14 00:01:04,959 --> 00:01:08,200 Speaker 2: I started by visiting Quality Learning Center daycare. So it 15 00:01:08,280 --> 00:01:10,720 Speaker 2: is that fourteen b which sits right in the heart 16 00:01:10,760 --> 00:01:14,600 Speaker 2: of downtown Minneapolis. Between twenty nineteen and twenty twenty three, 17 00:01:14,720 --> 00:01:18,760 Speaker 2: the Minnesota Department of Human Services found ninety five violations 18 00:01:18,800 --> 00:01:22,640 Speaker 2: at this location. They ranged from failure to keep hazardous 19 00:01:22,680 --> 00:01:26,640 Speaker 2: items away from children to no records for sixteen children, 20 00:01:26,680 --> 00:01:31,119 Speaker 2: which include things like immunizations, emergency contacts and medical needs, 21 00:01:31,720 --> 00:01:35,800 Speaker 2: so state investigators place Quality Learning Center on a conditional license. 22 00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:36,840 Speaker 1: In twenty twenty two. 23 00:01:37,600 --> 00:01:40,360 Speaker 2: I went to the Daycares location several times and only 24 00:01:40,440 --> 00:01:42,479 Speaker 2: once did I see people there. 25 00:01:43,800 --> 00:01:47,760 Speaker 1: Exactly what Nick Shirley had posted, Exactly what Nick Shirley 26 00:01:48,200 --> 00:01:53,760 Speaker 1: was discussing. There were no people there, nobody there, and 27 00:01:53,840 --> 00:01:58,440 Speaker 1: yet CNN and others are outraged. Who does this Nick 28 00:01:58,480 --> 00:02:02,680 Speaker 1: Shirley thing he is? And people going after him personally? 29 00:02:02,880 --> 00:02:04,680 Speaker 1: Do you know this guy? He wasn't able to have 30 00:02:04,720 --> 00:02:07,440 Speaker 1: a prom at COVID, so he had a prom at 31 00:02:07,440 --> 00:02:12,560 Speaker 1: home and invited his mom. That's a story that got reported. Dude, 32 00:02:13,120 --> 00:02:16,440 Speaker 1: Nick Shirley could be the weirdest human being ever. What 33 00:02:16,600 --> 00:02:20,880 Speaker 1: about the situation in Minnesota which is now seemingly the 34 00:02:20,919 --> 00:02:23,839 Speaker 1: same thing going on in Washington State, same thing going 35 00:02:23,880 --> 00:02:26,320 Speaker 1: on in places in Ohio. And I spoke to the 36 00:02:26,320 --> 00:02:28,880 Speaker 1: Governor of Indiana, Mike Braun yesterday about what he's gonna 37 00:02:28,919 --> 00:02:32,360 Speaker 1: do about investigating where I live. What are you gonna 38 00:02:32,360 --> 00:02:35,880 Speaker 1: do about where you live? What's going on in Tulsa, 39 00:02:36,040 --> 00:02:39,120 Speaker 1: What's going on in Charlotte, What's going on in Detroit, 40 00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:42,960 Speaker 1: what's going on in Baton? Rouge, what is happening in 41 00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:48,520 Speaker 1: these places and what's our plan? But people like Abby 42 00:02:48,600 --> 00:02:57,640 Speaker 1: Phillip over there at CNN are just infury infuriated. Who 43 00:02:57,680 --> 00:03:00,320 Speaker 1: does this guy think he is? And he's begging on 44 00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:04,040 Speaker 1: doors and he's saying open up, and who's going to 45 00:03:04,120 --> 00:03:07,760 Speaker 1: open up for this guy? None of that is the story. 46 00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:12,120 Speaker 1: None of that is the story at all. The story 47 00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:17,919 Speaker 1: is that there is massive fraud going on and because 48 00:03:17,960 --> 00:03:23,079 Speaker 1: of people's ideology, they have no interest in reporting about it. 49 00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:30,080 Speaker 1: They don't want it to stop. Somehow it is actually good. 50 00:03:30,680 --> 00:03:37,400 Speaker 1: What is the expression, it's not happening, It's not happening 51 00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:39,800 Speaker 1: the way you said it was happening. Yes, it's happening, 52 00:03:39,840 --> 00:03:43,520 Speaker 1: and it's actually a good thing. Right. This is how 53 00:03:43,560 --> 00:03:49,640 Speaker 1: the defense always works, Abby Felt, the host That's CNN show, 54 00:03:50,960 --> 00:03:55,480 Speaker 1: Abby Philip, will have anybody on to move their leftist narrative. 55 00:03:57,080 --> 00:04:01,400 Speaker 1: I mean, you've got this was that that piece between 56 00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:05,280 Speaker 1: Scott Jennings and and uh oh, what's her name, Emma 57 00:04:05,960 --> 00:04:08,160 Speaker 1: Vigland she used to be with the Young. 58 00:04:08,040 --> 00:04:11,120 Speaker 2: Turks and the Trump administration are complicit. 59 00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:13,960 Speaker 1: In We have to we have to debate this. 60 00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:18,159 Speaker 2: We don't have we don't have time for the You 61 00:04:18,160 --> 00:04:25,800 Speaker 2: don't have to have time for the anti Israel. So 62 00:04:25,880 --> 00:04:29,920 Speaker 2: we know that there's we know there's I never said 63 00:04:29,920 --> 00:04:30,880 Speaker 2: that we let it. 64 00:04:30,880 --> 00:04:32,640 Speaker 1: We let it on school for ten minutes. But sure, 65 00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:33,440 Speaker 1: I mean. 66 00:04:33,320 --> 00:04:35,360 Speaker 2: Honestly, okay, I have a quick full I I don't 67 00:04:35,440 --> 00:04:38,800 Speaker 2: understand Israel's are all I not a single word in 68 00:04:38,880 --> 00:04:42,159 Speaker 2: your speech for the trust shouldn't be that we're committed 69 00:04:42,160 --> 00:04:43,560 Speaker 2: on October the seventh. 70 00:04:44,320 --> 00:04:48,200 Speaker 1: That's okay with Abby Philip pretend that Israel is guilty 71 00:04:48,200 --> 00:04:52,360 Speaker 1: of a genocide when every bit of data says not happening, 72 00:04:52,560 --> 00:04:56,440 Speaker 1: never happened. Total lie, just a farce, a propaganda put 73 00:04:56,440 --> 00:05:01,159 Speaker 1: out by the bigots, the p Blue support Amas, which 74 00:05:01,200 --> 00:05:02,760 Speaker 1: she does. She doesn't even think we should be an 75 00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:05,320 Speaker 1: ally of Israel. I think we should have lots of allies. 76 00:05:05,600 --> 00:05:07,400 Speaker 1: That doesn't mean we have to give them every dollar, 77 00:05:07,440 --> 00:05:10,080 Speaker 1: doesn't mean we have to agree with everything, but better 78 00:05:10,120 --> 00:05:12,880 Speaker 1: to be allies than not. And clearly Israel has been 79 00:05:12,920 --> 00:05:15,320 Speaker 1: better for it has been very good for us in 80 00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:18,960 Speaker 1: a relationship. We have benefited from it, they've benefited from it. 81 00:05:19,320 --> 00:05:22,359 Speaker 1: And because of that relationship, you now have a place 82 00:05:22,360 --> 00:05:24,919 Speaker 1: of the Abraham Accords and other things happening and going on. 83 00:05:26,040 --> 00:05:29,919 Speaker 1: These are all good things. But certainly even if you 84 00:05:29,960 --> 00:05:31,600 Speaker 1: didn't want to give them any money, I mean, don 85 00:05:31,600 --> 00:05:33,640 Speaker 1: want to have a financial relationship in terms of eight 86 00:05:33,720 --> 00:05:37,320 Speaker 1: or anything else. If your choice is Israel or Hamas, 87 00:05:37,320 --> 00:05:41,360 Speaker 1: and you're picking Hamas, I'm sorry, you're simply not okay 88 00:05:41,400 --> 00:05:47,640 Speaker 1: in the head. That is diseased, devious thinking. Hamas is 89 00:05:47,640 --> 00:05:51,560 Speaker 1: a terrorist organization. The Palestinians voted for them, they're supported 90 00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:54,120 Speaker 1: by the Iranians. But that wasn't the story that we're 91 00:05:54,120 --> 00:05:55,960 Speaker 1: getting at here. That's just the point of who they 92 00:05:56,000 --> 00:06:01,920 Speaker 1: put on the air. They're okay with that plan. Why 93 00:06:01,960 --> 00:06:08,000 Speaker 1: are you not okay with a further expose of serious, 94 00:06:08,680 --> 00:06:17,920 Speaker 1: serious issues involving theft, involving fraud, so much so that 95 00:06:17,960 --> 00:06:22,400 Speaker 1: we're hearing stories that former Congressman Jason Lewis, remember he 96 00:06:22,440 --> 00:06:25,279 Speaker 1: was from Minnesota, was a Tea party guy. He was 97 00:06:25,320 --> 00:06:32,360 Speaker 1: talking about this in committee in twenty fourteen, that this 98 00:06:32,520 --> 00:06:35,880 Speaker 1: was happening and this fraud was taking place in these 99 00:06:35,920 --> 00:06:40,000 Speaker 1: stay care centers and the money is being moved out 100 00:06:40,520 --> 00:06:46,479 Speaker 1: via the airport. We should want a thorough investigation. We 101 00:06:46,480 --> 00:06:49,880 Speaker 1: should want to know who's involved in this anywhere they're 102 00:06:49,920 --> 00:06:54,720 Speaker 1: involved in it, and we should want Americans arrested, and 103 00:06:54,920 --> 00:07:02,800 Speaker 1: non Americans we should want expelled from the country. We 104 00:07:02,839 --> 00:07:07,800 Speaker 1: should want them deported, of course, but they're really angry 105 00:07:08,120 --> 00:07:12,800 Speaker 1: at Nick Shirley for creating that video and exposing this 106 00:07:13,080 --> 00:07:16,760 Speaker 1: into a much greater, greater group of people than was 107 00:07:16,800 --> 00:07:20,360 Speaker 1: ever done by people who were there in Minnesota. Clearly 108 00:07:20,640 --> 00:07:23,120 Speaker 1: we all weren't listening. I mean, we need to listen better, 109 00:07:24,520 --> 00:07:27,800 Speaker 1: and was not pushed by the mainstream media outlets, which 110 00:07:27,840 --> 00:07:30,000 Speaker 1: is I think, really what this is all about. If 111 00:07:30,040 --> 00:07:32,440 Speaker 1: it didn't come from a mainstream outlet, Oh my gosh, 112 00:07:32,440 --> 00:07:35,240 Speaker 1: that's not really journalism. Well, only we're the journalists. We 113 00:07:35,360 --> 00:07:38,880 Speaker 1: can't be supporting this person. That's not real journalism. All 114 00:07:38,920 --> 00:07:41,960 Speaker 1: it was was a light on what it is that's happening. 115 00:07:42,480 --> 00:07:45,120 Speaker 1: And the strangest thing took place in one of these 116 00:07:45,160 --> 00:07:51,760 Speaker 1: situations where you had this quality learning center which they 117 00:07:51,760 --> 00:07:54,920 Speaker 1: spelled learning wrong and they spelled it l E A RNG. 118 00:07:55,200 --> 00:07:59,440 Speaker 1: There's no N and so it's quality Leering center. And 119 00:07:59,440 --> 00:08:01,400 Speaker 1: there was nobody there, no kids there, nobody has ever 120 00:08:01,440 --> 00:08:04,440 Speaker 1: come up, No I haven't shown up, no kids, And 121 00:08:04,520 --> 00:08:08,440 Speaker 1: all of a sudden, oh look here are the kids. Well, 122 00:08:08,480 --> 00:08:11,680 Speaker 1: in one instance, they've got video of people bringing their 123 00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:16,120 Speaker 1: kids in, all of them in hijobs, all of them 124 00:08:16,600 --> 00:08:20,080 Speaker 1: in full garb, Islamic garb, and they bring their kids in, 125 00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:22,400 Speaker 1: and then two minutes later they bring their kids back out. 126 00:08:22,440 --> 00:08:25,160 Speaker 1: What are they doing. They're signing in making it look 127 00:08:25,240 --> 00:08:27,760 Speaker 1: like their kids are there. Everybody is in on the fraud. 128 00:08:27,800 --> 00:08:29,440 Speaker 1: And by the way, I believe those people are complicit. 129 00:08:29,480 --> 00:08:31,680 Speaker 1: They should be charged with crimes and have not citizens. 130 00:08:31,680 --> 00:08:33,880 Speaker 1: They should be thrown out of the country. They should 131 00:08:33,880 --> 00:08:36,360 Speaker 1: be thrown out of the country. Don't care about them, 132 00:08:36,400 --> 00:08:38,440 Speaker 1: don't care about what they're going back to. No, no, no, no, 133 00:08:38,800 --> 00:08:42,240 Speaker 1: you're engaged in a fraud against Americans. You have to go. 134 00:08:42,400 --> 00:08:44,960 Speaker 1: Don't tell me I have to be kind. I'm not interested. 135 00:08:45,400 --> 00:08:47,920 Speaker 1: I'm not interested in being kind with people who hate 136 00:08:47,960 --> 00:08:53,000 Speaker 1: the nation. Just as a matter of clarity. But now 137 00:08:53,040 --> 00:08:54,760 Speaker 1: they've got well, what are you talking about? Look at 138 00:08:54,760 --> 00:08:56,680 Speaker 1: all the kids here. We've got all these children here. 139 00:08:57,000 --> 00:08:59,959 Speaker 1: You mean a couple of days ago and eleven months 140 00:09:00,160 --> 00:09:02,760 Speaker 1: and another reporter did it, no kids were anywhere, and 141 00:09:02,800 --> 00:09:05,560 Speaker 1: now all of a sudden, the kids are there. I 142 00:09:05,679 --> 00:09:08,200 Speaker 1: swear to you, it's the plot part of the plot 143 00:09:08,240 --> 00:09:11,679 Speaker 1: of the movie Nine to five, Dolly Parton, Lily Tomlin, 144 00:09:11,760 --> 00:09:16,400 Speaker 1: Dabney Coleman, if you remember the movie at all, right, 145 00:09:16,440 --> 00:09:19,800 Speaker 1: they bake these terrible women like Jane Fondash, he's one 146 00:09:19,800 --> 00:09:23,800 Speaker 1: of the stars, kidnap their boss and then they discover 147 00:09:23,960 --> 00:09:26,280 Speaker 1: that he hasn't been doing the work right and he's 148 00:09:26,320 --> 00:09:29,920 Speaker 1: been stealing funds. And then Dabney Coleman is able to escape, 149 00:09:30,040 --> 00:09:31,920 Speaker 1: and they go to the warehouse that was empty, and 150 00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:36,839 Speaker 1: it's all full and it's everything's working, and so when 151 00:09:36,880 --> 00:09:39,440 Speaker 1: they looked it was empty, and then the next day, 152 00:09:39,480 --> 00:09:45,760 Speaker 1: magically it's full. It's the nine to five premis. It's crazy. 153 00:09:45,920 --> 00:09:51,880 Speaker 1: Who's gonna believe this garbage? It is clear that all 154 00:09:51,920 --> 00:09:56,040 Speaker 1: of these daycare centers, all of these home healthcare centers, 155 00:09:57,000 --> 00:10:03,080 Speaker 1: whether they involved Somali's or not, there is theft going 156 00:10:03,120 --> 00:10:06,520 Speaker 1: on and we need to root it out. And American 157 00:10:06,559 --> 00:10:09,280 Speaker 1: citizens need to go to jail. By the way, the 158 00:10:10,120 --> 00:10:13,880 Speaker 1: Feds have said, there have been ninety eight people charged 159 00:10:13,920 --> 00:10:17,680 Speaker 1: and sixty have gone to jail so far. Well, innocents 160 00:10:17,720 --> 00:10:21,280 Speaker 1: have proven guilty. And I want courtrooms for citizens, and 161 00:10:21,320 --> 00:10:23,880 Speaker 1: I want the presumption of innocence and all the rest 162 00:10:24,280 --> 00:10:26,800 Speaker 1: non citizens. I don't even want to hear it. Goodbye. 163 00:10:28,040 --> 00:10:30,680 Speaker 1: And if someone thinks that xenophobic, allow me to say 164 00:10:30,679 --> 00:10:34,760 Speaker 1: how little I care. If you support Hamas over Israel, 165 00:10:34,800 --> 00:10:37,960 Speaker 1: I don't care about you. And if you support people 166 00:10:37,960 --> 00:10:43,440 Speaker 1: in the country illegally or on some quasi ability to 167 00:10:43,480 --> 00:10:48,120 Speaker 1: be here, non citizens engaged in law breaking and siphening 168 00:10:48,200 --> 00:10:53,040 Speaker 1: funds and screwing over Americans and stealing their money. You're 169 00:10:53,080 --> 00:10:54,880 Speaker 1: not an American. You're not somebody I want to know, 170 00:10:55,760 --> 00:10:58,640 Speaker 1: plain and simple. It's a very easy kind of thing 171 00:10:58,679 --> 00:11:02,600 Speaker 1: to discuss. I want them gone, not just them, their 172 00:11:02,600 --> 00:11:05,240 Speaker 1: whole family. God, I don't care, don't want to hear it. 173 00:11:05,520 --> 00:11:08,200 Speaker 1: There is a trust factor here. You wanted to be 174 00:11:08,240 --> 00:11:10,520 Speaker 1: a citizen, or you wanted to apply. You didn't follow 175 00:11:10,520 --> 00:11:12,320 Speaker 1: the rules, you broke the rules. You all go back. 176 00:11:12,520 --> 00:11:14,200 Speaker 1: What we go back, We're going to be killed. With 177 00:11:14,240 --> 00:11:18,559 Speaker 1: all due respect, that's your problem. You didn't care about 178 00:11:18,559 --> 00:11:21,959 Speaker 1: it when you were stealing from us. Goodbye, Tony. You're 179 00:11:22,080 --> 00:11:25,280 Speaker 1: very harsh. Kids. You should hear me when I'm not 180 00:11:25,360 --> 00:11:31,240 Speaker 1: on radio harsh. At what moment do we put an 181 00:11:31,400 --> 00:11:35,960 Speaker 1: end to the madness? How else does it end? How nice? 182 00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:38,400 Speaker 1: Am I supposed to be. You steal the money, you 183 00:11:38,440 --> 00:11:40,200 Speaker 1: either kept it for yourself or you sent it back 184 00:11:40,240 --> 00:11:42,720 Speaker 1: to Somalia, And now I'm supposed to say, don't do 185 00:11:42,840 --> 00:11:46,720 Speaker 1: that again, and you get to stay. You prove and 186 00:11:46,760 --> 00:11:49,000 Speaker 1: you're not interested in being a citizen. You don't care 187 00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:52,800 Speaker 1: about the place that gives you the opportunity. You cared 188 00:11:52,880 --> 00:11:54,760 Speaker 1: so little that you didn't care what you might go 189 00:11:54,880 --> 00:11:57,880 Speaker 1: back to if you were caught. That's your problem, not 190 00:11:58,040 --> 00:12:02,480 Speaker 1: my problem. Goodbye. It is not an act of kindness 191 00:12:02,520 --> 00:12:04,679 Speaker 1: to allow people like that to stay. It is an 192 00:12:04,760 --> 00:12:11,360 Speaker 1: act of madness. It's an act of slow protracted suicide. 193 00:12:11,679 --> 00:12:16,600 Speaker 1: No thank you, American citizens. They get a trial. They're 194 00:12:16,600 --> 00:12:21,640 Speaker 1: innocentil proven guilty. You see the difference. But the anger 195 00:12:22,160 --> 00:12:27,360 Speaker 1: is twofold. The anger is first that it was somebody 196 00:12:27,360 --> 00:12:31,320 Speaker 1: who isn't a journalist quote unquote, how dare they show 197 00:12:31,400 --> 00:12:35,080 Speaker 1: us up? That person has to be dismissed and discounted 198 00:12:35,760 --> 00:12:39,680 Speaker 1: because these people at these so called news organizations actually 199 00:12:39,760 --> 00:12:42,520 Speaker 1: think they do real work. And when they think they 200 00:12:42,520 --> 00:12:44,600 Speaker 1: actually do real work, how could somebody else come in 201 00:12:44,600 --> 00:12:46,800 Speaker 1: and do the work for them? How could they be 202 00:12:46,880 --> 00:12:49,840 Speaker 1: shown up like this? So they have to discount it 203 00:12:49,920 --> 00:12:56,240 Speaker 1: and dismiss it. They have to denigrate it, and that's 204 00:12:56,280 --> 00:13:02,200 Speaker 1: exactly what they do. That's exactly what they do. But 205 00:13:02,320 --> 00:13:06,000 Speaker 1: here's the part too, Why would you be upset? That's 206 00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:08,760 Speaker 1: something that was already known to be happening via the 207 00:13:08,920 --> 00:13:12,760 Speaker 1: reporting by the Manhattan Institute in their magazine City Journal, 208 00:13:12,760 --> 00:13:15,840 Speaker 1: which is a brilliant read, not just that story, city 209 00:13:15,920 --> 00:13:19,960 Speaker 1: Journal in general. Why would you be mad that somebody 210 00:13:20,040 --> 00:13:21,400 Speaker 1: read that story and said I want to go find 211 00:13:21,440 --> 00:13:25,000 Speaker 1: out for myself, and this is what they found. When 212 00:13:25,320 --> 00:13:28,760 Speaker 1: Trump was talking about Springfield, Ohio, they're eating the dogs, 213 00:13:28,800 --> 00:13:32,199 Speaker 1: they're eating the cats. Myself and fingers will who I 214 00:13:32,280 --> 00:13:37,679 Speaker 1: do eat drink smoke with eat drinksmokeshow dot com. We 215 00:13:38,440 --> 00:13:40,040 Speaker 1: got in the car and we drove over to Springfield, 216 00:13:40,400 --> 00:13:44,560 Speaker 1: smoked cigars. Headed over Springfield, did some video and talked 217 00:13:44,600 --> 00:13:49,480 Speaker 1: to people, drove around, looked around, ended up having lunch 218 00:13:49,520 --> 00:13:52,080 Speaker 1: at this very cool food hall, had a you have 219 00:13:52,120 --> 00:13:55,439 Speaker 1: a burger. It was cool. Met up with David Marcus 220 00:13:55,480 --> 00:13:59,000 Speaker 1: there from Fox News. David's terrific. Just happened to see 221 00:13:59,080 --> 00:14:03,079 Speaker 1: them be like, hey, let's go. No. I may have said, hey, 222 00:14:03,080 --> 00:14:07,360 Speaker 1: we're in Springfield. If you're in Springfield and talk to people. 223 00:14:07,840 --> 00:14:10,679 Speaker 1: You know what we learned. No one is eating dogs, 224 00:14:11,040 --> 00:14:14,040 Speaker 1: no one is eating cats. The geese are absolutely being eaten. 225 00:14:14,600 --> 00:14:16,960 Speaker 1: There is a massive housing issue because you have all 226 00:14:17,000 --> 00:14:20,320 Speaker 1: these people that are moving into places like ten to 227 00:14:20,360 --> 00:14:25,480 Speaker 1: eleven people living in a two bedroom apartment, and the 228 00:14:25,560 --> 00:14:28,320 Speaker 1: landlords can get more money from them because they're being 229 00:14:28,360 --> 00:14:30,680 Speaker 1: given government checks. And people are getting thrown out of 230 00:14:30,720 --> 00:14:34,200 Speaker 1: their homes. And of course these people can't drive. The 231 00:14:34,240 --> 00:14:36,800 Speaker 1: car accidents are through the roof and the city cannot 232 00:14:36,920 --> 00:14:40,280 Speaker 1: keep up. We learned that the city isn't opposed to 233 00:14:40,320 --> 00:14:45,640 Speaker 1: having people from Haiti in town. What they oppose was 234 00:14:45,680 --> 00:14:48,640 Speaker 1: that there was no assistance given to them, no notification 235 00:14:48,760 --> 00:14:51,160 Speaker 1: given to them, and they can't deal with the influx. 236 00:14:51,360 --> 00:14:55,000 Speaker 1: They don't have the resources, and they're sick and tired 237 00:14:55,040 --> 00:14:59,600 Speaker 1: of being called racists. That's what we learned. There is 238 00:14:59,640 --> 00:15:05,440 Speaker 1: an issue. You not what we were first reported, but 239 00:15:05,520 --> 00:15:09,440 Speaker 1: there is a serious issue that still goes on. And then, 240 00:15:10,320 --> 00:15:15,000 Speaker 1: because I'm an observant cat, everyone kept talking about how 241 00:15:15,200 --> 00:15:19,600 Speaker 1: the manufacturing is a food plant. Oh, they love the 242 00:15:19,640 --> 00:15:21,880 Speaker 1: Haitian migrants and they work so hard and they'll do 243 00:15:21,920 --> 00:15:24,760 Speaker 1: the job. Americans won't do. And I said on this 244 00:15:24,920 --> 00:15:30,640 Speaker 1: show over a year ago, Hey, does anybody think that 245 00:15:30,680 --> 00:15:34,440 Speaker 1: sounds like a jobs program? That sounds like a jobs program? 246 00:15:35,240 --> 00:15:37,960 Speaker 1: Are we allowing Haitian migrants in and giving them TPS 247 00:15:37,960 --> 00:15:41,160 Speaker 1: Temporary protecting status because it's basically a job program so 248 00:15:41,200 --> 00:15:44,080 Speaker 1: they'll work there? And is that what's going on? And 249 00:15:44,160 --> 00:15:47,560 Speaker 1: it turns out that that's a lot of what was 250 00:15:47,600 --> 00:15:52,480 Speaker 1: going on because the line, you know, oh my gosh, 251 00:15:52,480 --> 00:15:55,160 Speaker 1: they're doing the work and they're so loved by the 252 00:15:55,200 --> 00:16:00,000 Speaker 1: factory and we need these people. So we were flooding 253 00:16:00,160 --> 00:16:07,960 Speaker 1: small cities and hurting people as a jobs program. Huh, 254 00:16:08,360 --> 00:16:10,480 Speaker 1: maybe they didn't have to pay more to get more 255 00:16:10,520 --> 00:16:14,360 Speaker 1: people to work there. Okay, so you did undercut Americans. 256 00:16:14,440 --> 00:16:17,880 Speaker 1: This is what we learned because we went and saw 257 00:16:17,880 --> 00:16:21,040 Speaker 1: it with our own eyes. And what CNN is saying is, 258 00:16:21,080 --> 00:16:26,600 Speaker 1: how dare you? This is why they can't be trusted. Hey, 259 00:16:26,680 --> 00:16:29,040 Speaker 1: let's break down the reporting. All right, we don't like 260 00:16:29,080 --> 00:16:30,720 Speaker 1: this part, but he did do this, this, and this. 261 00:16:30,800 --> 00:16:33,400 Speaker 1: Let's talk about those things. No, they don't do that, 262 00:16:34,440 --> 00:16:40,880 Speaker 1: just like the the the anti Israel freak there. Narrative narrative, 263 00:16:40,960 --> 00:16:44,640 Speaker 1: narrative narrative. If you if you're not talking policy about Israel, 264 00:16:44,680 --> 00:16:48,880 Speaker 1: but you have someone still screaming genocide, it's unserious, it's gross. 265 00:16:48,920 --> 00:16:53,840 Speaker 1: It's a real detriment because it's an unserious position. Talking 266 00:16:53,840 --> 00:16:57,560 Speaker 1: about Israel's position, that'd be something different. They don't want 267 00:16:57,640 --> 00:17:01,280 Speaker 1: Nick Shirley to be given any credibility because it means 268 00:17:01,360 --> 00:17:04,119 Speaker 1: they didn't do their job. But then again, of course 269 00:17:04,160 --> 00:17:09,200 Speaker 1: they didn't do their job. Reporting the news isn't what 270 00:17:09,280 --> 00:17:13,679 Speaker 1: they do. Engaging the narrative is what they do, and 271 00:17:13,760 --> 00:17:16,760 Speaker 1: what the Nick Shirley video does is expose is what 272 00:17:16,800 --> 00:17:21,240 Speaker 1: it is they're all about, and that's why they're upset. 273 00:17:22,040 --> 00:17:26,399 Speaker 1: Let them be upset. We'll do our own reporting. We 274 00:17:26,440 --> 00:17:31,160 Speaker 1: don't need CNN and Scott Jennings. Hey, you don't need 275 00:17:31,200 --> 00:17:34,320 Speaker 1: them either, man. God, I hope you're making a lot 276 00:17:34,359 --> 00:17:37,440 Speaker 1: of money over there. I'm Tony Katz. This is Tony 277 00:17:37,520 --> 00:17:41,280 Speaker 1: Katz Today.

Three stories that aren't gonna get 316 00:19:53,760 --> 00:19:56,520 Speaker 1: any coverage or nowhere near the coverage that they need 317 00:19:56,560 --> 00:19:58,520 Speaker 1: to get. And the first was a post I saw 318 00:19:58,680 --> 00:20:02,040 Speaker 1: from Mark Hemingway, a good, good writer. He is the 319 00:20:02,119 --> 00:20:04,200 Speaker 1: husband of Molly Hemingway over the Federalist that you've seen 320 00:20:04,240 --> 00:20:08,399 Speaker 1: on Fox a million times. And it's a video that 321 00:20:08,480 --> 00:20:12,159 Speaker 1: was put out by TMZ. And in the video you 322 00:20:12,440 --> 00:20:18,000 Speaker 1: have a police officer stopping their vehicle because there's a 323 00:20:18,000 --> 00:20:21,920 Speaker 1: guy in the middle of a road, major major highway, freeway, 324 00:20:22,440 --> 00:20:24,960 Speaker 1: and he's just standing there and he's blocking traffic, and 325 00:20:25,000 --> 00:20:27,439 Speaker 1: so the police vehicle now kind of blocks traffic to 326 00:20:27,480 --> 00:20:31,080 Speaker 1: try and deal with this guy. This guy then you know, 327 00:20:31,119 --> 00:20:35,080 Speaker 1: he's walking around, he's talking to himself. He walks directly 328 00:20:35,320 --> 00:20:40,399 Speaker 1: up to the car or to the front door, the 329 00:20:40,480 --> 00:20:44,800 Speaker 1: driver side door, she said, front door. And the cop 330 00:20:44,960 --> 00:20:47,880 Speaker 1: opens the door and it's a female cop. I take 331 00:20:47,920 --> 00:20:49,760 Speaker 1: it back. The guy opens the door, the door is 332 00:20:49,800 --> 00:20:53,520 Speaker 1: not even locked. The female cop gets out. He throws 333 00:20:53,600 --> 00:20:57,760 Speaker 1: the female cop to the ground, steals the police vehicle 334 00:20:57,920 --> 00:21:05,800 Speaker 1: and drives off. That's what happens here. What the world 335 00:21:05,880 --> 00:21:08,400 Speaker 1: is going on now? I think that's a female cop, 336 00:21:08,760 --> 00:21:12,160 Speaker 1: Mark Hemingway. I thought that was a female cop. And 337 00:21:12,720 --> 00:21:16,080 Speaker 1: what he writes is, I'm sorry, but women shouldn't be cops. 338 00:21:16,240 --> 00:21:19,439 Speaker 1: Firemen are in combat. It makes us all less safe. 339 00:21:20,080 --> 00:21:21,760 Speaker 1: This is the kind of talk that gets the left 340 00:21:21,880 --> 00:21:23,600 Speaker 1: just out of their heads. What do you mean women 341 00:21:23,640 --> 00:21:27,280 Speaker 1: can't be police officers? Anybody out of shape can't be 342 00:21:27,320 --> 00:21:31,360 Speaker 1: a police officer. And women are not as strong as men. 343 00:21:31,760 --> 00:21:35,440 Speaker 1: And you didn't have your door locked. You allowed this 344 00:21:35,560 --> 00:21:38,400 Speaker 1: guy to open the door. You stepped out, you got 345 00:21:38,440 --> 00:21:42,400 Speaker 1: thrown into the ground. Maybe you shouldn't be making contact 346 00:21:42,480 --> 00:21:44,840 Speaker 1: with him. And if you're gonna make contact, maybe it 347 00:21:44,880 --> 00:21:48,119 Speaker 1: should have been with the hood of your car. But 348 00:21:49,119 --> 00:21:51,240 Speaker 1: guys blocking traffic, you know how I feel about people 349 00:21:51,240 --> 00:21:57,640 Speaker 1: who block traffic. Knock him down, wait for backup, Do 350 00:21:57,840 --> 00:22:04,040 Speaker 1: something other than letting your car be stolen by somebody 351 00:22:04,040 --> 00:22:08,520 Speaker 1: who's clearly a freak. Oh, tony, you don't know. He 352 00:22:08,520 --> 00:22:11,879 Speaker 1: could have been having a medical episode. Maybe it doesn't 353 00:22:11,920 --> 00:22:16,160 Speaker 1: make stealing the car any better. It's not an excuse. 354 00:22:17,640 --> 00:22:22,640 Speaker 1: But these kinds of conversations do make people uncomfortable. Men 355 00:22:22,640 --> 00:22:24,520 Speaker 1: and women are not the same, and women cannot do 356 00:22:24,560 --> 00:22:27,600 Speaker 1: what men do, and there are many many things men 357 00:22:27,640 --> 00:22:30,040 Speaker 1: cannot do that women can. So what are we talking 358 00:22:30,080 --> 00:22:33,600 Speaker 1: about here? Why in the world do we think this 359 00:22:33,840 --> 00:22:40,040 Speaker 1: idea of equality, no weight equity, no weight diversity. I 360 00:22:40,080 --> 00:22:45,080 Speaker 1: don't know, whatever amalgamation of nonsense words salad we're putting 361 00:22:45,080 --> 00:22:47,760 Speaker 1: together these days. What makes us think that this is good? 362 00:22:47,800 --> 00:22:51,919 Speaker 1: Our diversity is our strength? Not there? Washington State is 363 00:22:52,040 --> 00:22:54,720 Speaker 1: less safe because they didn't have somebody there who could 364 00:22:54,720 --> 00:22:59,160 Speaker 1: stop this guy. You let a guy open a door 365 00:22:59,200 --> 00:23:00,879 Speaker 1: on you. You don't know you had a weapon, You 366 00:23:00,880 --> 00:23:05,560 Speaker 1: didn't pull your weapon, you didn't do anything. Was this 367 00:23:05,720 --> 00:23:08,960 Speaker 1: your hey, let's try and uh, what is it when 368 00:23:08,960 --> 00:23:12,080 Speaker 1: they try and and and bring things down de escalate? 369 00:23:13,200 --> 00:23:15,679 Speaker 1: Was this your de escalation policy to be thrown to 370 00:23:15,760 --> 00:23:20,640 Speaker 1: the ground like a rag doll. We should be honest, 371 00:23:22,280 --> 00:23:26,000 Speaker 1: We should be honest and say, maybe, right there at 372 00:23:26,000 --> 00:23:28,919 Speaker 1: that moment, out there in the field, not a place 373 00:23:29,359 --> 00:23:34,800 Speaker 1: for a female officer to be. Why isn't that an 374 00:23:34,800 --> 00:23:39,159 Speaker 1: okay thing to discuss? Now, maybe after some debate and 375 00:23:39,200 --> 00:23:41,960 Speaker 1: after some studying, after some looking, Hey, this happens to 376 00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:43,840 Speaker 1: men as well. And here's the amount of cases that 377 00:23:43,880 --> 00:23:45,960 Speaker 1: happens here, and here's the case happens there. And you 378 00:23:46,000 --> 00:23:49,240 Speaker 1: can prove to me by data that statistically this happens 379 00:23:49,280 --> 00:23:52,760 Speaker 1: from time to time. And then my response would be, 380 00:23:53,000 --> 00:23:57,760 Speaker 1: how can we make it happen statistically less? But if 381 00:23:57,800 --> 00:23:59,800 Speaker 1: you say to me, oh, you're just being anti woman, 382 00:24:00,200 --> 00:24:08,480 Speaker 1: stop it, stop it. I am always interested in what's 383 00:24:08,680 --> 00:24:11,720 Speaker 1: the best way to handle these things? Who can best 384 00:24:11,760 --> 00:24:15,439 Speaker 1: handle these things? I said this about secret service. You 385 00:24:15,520 --> 00:24:18,400 Speaker 1: take a woman who's five feet tall and you put 386 00:24:18,400 --> 00:24:21,440 Speaker 1: her in the protection of Donald Trump, whose I don't 387 00:24:21,480 --> 00:24:26,360 Speaker 1: know six whatever he is. It's ridiculous. And we saw 388 00:24:26,520 --> 00:24:29,840 Speaker 1: many women when Trump got shot at Butler, who clearly 389 00:24:29,880 --> 00:24:32,200 Speaker 1: had no idea what was going on. Now a full 390 00:24:32,240 --> 00:24:37,520 Speaker 1: disclosure saying thing is true about men. But the men 391 00:24:37,680 --> 00:24:39,880 Speaker 1: seemed to be of a height that they could actually 392 00:24:39,960 --> 00:24:42,160 Speaker 1: protect the president and then knew how to put their 393 00:24:42,160 --> 00:24:46,240 Speaker 1: gun in their holster. But for not having Trump dragged 394 00:24:46,280 --> 00:24:49,439 Speaker 1: to a car and driven off immediately, I would have 395 00:24:49,480 --> 00:24:53,600 Speaker 1: fired everybody. Then again, I would have also had somebody 396 00:24:53,640 --> 00:24:57,919 Speaker 1: on the roof. The roof is in plain sight. Oh, 397 00:24:57,960 --> 00:24:59,680 Speaker 1: we can't have anybody on there because the slope of 398 00:24:59,720 --> 00:25:03,280 Speaker 1: the roof is too much. Stop it. Any secret Service 399 00:25:03,320 --> 00:25:05,240 Speaker 1: officer afraid of the slope of that roof can't be 400 00:25:05,280 --> 00:25:10,160 Speaker 1: a Secret Service officer. Meanwhile, another day, another breach AFLAC 401 00:25:11,119 --> 00:25:15,360 Speaker 1: the insurance company. They did a review and they find 402 00:25:15,680 --> 00:25:21,399 Speaker 1: that twenty two million people were impacted by a data breach. 403 00:25:21,520 --> 00:25:26,280 Speaker 1: This was June. Social security numbers, insurance claims, in health 404 00:25:26,359 --> 00:25:33,400 Speaker 1: information names, contact information, health details were among the details 405 00:25:33,400 --> 00:25:39,520 Speaker 1: obtained in the breach. Twenty two million. Now I work 406 00:25:39,600 --> 00:25:43,800 Speaker 1: for a company that did get breached. An insane story, 407 00:25:44,160 --> 00:25:46,760 Speaker 1: and yeah, credit cards got opened to my name, and 408 00:25:47,119 --> 00:25:49,960 Speaker 1: bank accounts got infiltrated. It took a while to get 409 00:25:50,000 --> 00:25:52,440 Speaker 1: it all done. I am concerned about it all the time, 410 00:25:53,520 --> 00:25:57,240 Speaker 1: all the time. Am I perfectly okay with the company 411 00:25:57,240 --> 00:26:00,800 Speaker 1: that I'm connected with that had to happen? No no, no, 412 00:26:00,800 --> 00:26:02,640 Speaker 1: no no no no no no no no, And all 413 00:26:02,760 --> 00:26:08,240 Speaker 1: is nuts forgiven by any stretch of the imagination. But 414 00:26:08,320 --> 00:26:11,399 Speaker 1: I think the greater conversation here is that people have 415 00:26:11,440 --> 00:26:14,960 Speaker 1: gotten very used to the breaches. We become a nerd 416 00:26:15,000 --> 00:26:19,600 Speaker 1: to it, And so at what moment do people stop caring. 417 00:26:20,480 --> 00:26:24,159 Speaker 1: You just assume that your data is out there. You 418 00:26:24,240 --> 00:26:31,120 Speaker 1: assume that it's being weaponized against you. You assume that 419 00:26:31,240 --> 00:26:34,240 Speaker 1: it's going to be used to harm you. You assume 420 00:26:34,280 --> 00:26:36,720 Speaker 1: you're going to get that email that says, hey, here's 421 00:26:36,760 --> 00:26:43,240 Speaker 1: free credit monitoring for two years, which, by the way, 422 00:26:43,359 --> 00:26:46,760 Speaker 1: is not a deal. I'm not saying you shouldn't have it. 423 00:26:46,760 --> 00:26:49,159 Speaker 1: That's not my point when you say to me, in 424 00:26:49,280 --> 00:26:52,439 Speaker 1: order to help with this, we've gotten you free credit 425 00:26:52,520 --> 00:26:57,080 Speaker 1: monitoring for two years. Good lord, I still have to 426 00:26:57,080 --> 00:26:59,520 Speaker 1: do the work. I am the one impacted. I'm the 427 00:26:59,560 --> 00:27:03,879 Speaker 1: one of because in some cases of real blunders and 428 00:27:03,920 --> 00:27:06,680 Speaker 1: in some cases because we're not doing a good job 429 00:27:06,680 --> 00:27:09,719 Speaker 1: of finding the hackers and cutting off their hands. Tony, 430 00:27:09,760 --> 00:27:12,800 Speaker 1: you can't say that on radio? Why why not? I 431 00:27:12,800 --> 00:27:15,040 Speaker 1: could have said something worse. We could be cutting off 432 00:27:15,040 --> 00:27:19,960 Speaker 1: something else. But you know, I'm assuming they were typing 433 00:27:20,000 --> 00:27:22,720 Speaker 1: with their hands, So I went for the went for 434 00:27:22,760 --> 00:27:24,720 Speaker 1: the hands first. Isn't that the kind of thing they 435 00:27:24,720 --> 00:27:27,560 Speaker 1: do in third world nations? Maybe, but they ain't got 436 00:27:27,560 --> 00:27:33,919 Speaker 1: no hackers. The hackers have to be dealt with, and 437 00:27:34,000 --> 00:27:37,240 Speaker 1: I accept the fact that it is oft times hard 438 00:27:37,280 --> 00:27:44,159 Speaker 1: to find them. When you find them, boom, hey, listen, 439 00:27:44,200 --> 00:27:46,200 Speaker 1: I'll go for other things. If we're not talking about 440 00:27:46,200 --> 00:27:48,800 Speaker 1: cutting off of hand, you can leave the entire area 441 00:27:48,960 --> 00:27:56,679 Speaker 1: glowing and maybe inhospitable, uninhabitable for a couple of decades. 442 00:27:57,640 --> 00:28:02,800 Speaker 1: What I'm talking talking about how we deal with the problem. 443 00:28:03,280 --> 00:28:08,119 Speaker 1: Why is that an issue? Why in the world can't 444 00:28:08,160 --> 00:28:13,480 Speaker 1: we say there's an issue here, and there's a way 445 00:28:13,520 --> 00:28:15,840 Speaker 1: to deal with this. We got got to accept it. 446 00:28:16,160 --> 00:28:18,880 Speaker 1: I don't. I don't just accept it. I don't think 447 00:28:18,880 --> 00:28:20,520 Speaker 1: other people should just accept it. I think it's a 448 00:28:21,600 --> 00:28:24,919 Speaker 1: terrible way to go through life. And then there is 449 00:28:25,000 --> 00:28:29,719 Speaker 1: story number three. This is the headline Wall Street Journal 450 00:28:30,080 --> 00:28:33,600 Speaker 1: the case of the four hundred thousand dollars Massachusetts lobster heist. 451 00:28:36,000 --> 00:28:39,840 Speaker 1: This is crazy. You want to talk about people who 452 00:28:39,920 --> 00:28:45,680 Speaker 1: are engaged in levels of fraud. So here's the story. 453 00:28:46,080 --> 00:28:49,040 Speaker 1: Starts with a fishing scam, not with fish, even though 454 00:28:49,040 --> 00:28:52,280 Speaker 1: it's lobsters. Phish, right. When you try and get information, 455 00:28:52,360 --> 00:28:57,200 Speaker 1: they do that via email. So an email domain name 456 00:28:57,800 --> 00:29:03,800 Speaker 1: was altered lightly to represent itself as being part of 457 00:29:03,800 --> 00:29:09,480 Speaker 1: a real trucking company. So this logistics firm, it thinks 458 00:29:09,520 --> 00:29:12,680 Speaker 1: it's hiring the trucking company, but actually they've just gotten 459 00:29:12,680 --> 00:29:18,520 Speaker 1: in bed with the culprits. So then this guy arrives 460 00:29:20,120 --> 00:29:26,320 Speaker 1: to collect a shipment of lobster, arrives at this cold 461 00:29:26,360 --> 00:29:30,680 Speaker 1: storage center run by a third party where this this group, 462 00:29:30,760 --> 00:29:36,560 Speaker 1: this logistics firm, they've got you know, storage. So this 463 00:29:36,680 --> 00:29:44,200 Speaker 1: guy presents a fake commercial driver's license and the tractor 464 00:29:44,240 --> 00:29:48,120 Speaker 1: trailers from the real trucking company. Okay, now it's just 465 00:29:48,160 --> 00:29:51,480 Speaker 1: a little too much. There's a real trucking company. There 466 00:29:51,560 --> 00:29:55,440 Speaker 1: is a real company storing and selling the lobsters. A 467 00:29:55,600 --> 00:30:01,200 Speaker 1: faker cat comes in via email, utilizing a fake email 468 00:30:01,200 --> 00:30:04,960 Speaker 1: address that resembles the real trucking company then is able 469 00:30:04,960 --> 00:30:08,120 Speaker 1: to show up at the storage facility, shows a fake 470 00:30:08,280 --> 00:30:12,680 Speaker 1: driver's license, but has a real truck, a true big 471 00:30:12,760 --> 00:30:18,000 Speaker 1: rig that is owned by the real trucking company that 472 00:30:18,120 --> 00:30:20,320 Speaker 1: this guy spoofed to be able to get in the 473 00:30:20,320 --> 00:30:29,360 Speaker 1: door to begin with everybody following because that's insane, picks up. 474 00:30:29,400 --> 00:30:31,960 Speaker 1: The guy now picks up the lobster. The lobster was 475 00:30:32,040 --> 00:30:36,920 Speaker 1: heading for Costco Minnesota in Illinois. They we're gonna get 476 00:30:37,000 --> 00:30:42,280 Speaker 1: some really nice lobster. They get into the truck, the 477 00:30:42,320 --> 00:30:46,959 Speaker 1: lobster's loaded up. He's like, okay, thanke it easy. O'm 478 00:30:47,000 --> 00:30:49,960 Speaker 1: assume that's what he said, and then he drives off 479 00:30:50,960 --> 00:30:57,600 Speaker 1: and they turn off the GPS. This guy drove off 480 00:30:57,960 --> 00:31:06,000 Speaker 1: with four hundred thousand pounds of lobster and has not 481 00:31:06,760 --> 00:31:13,680 Speaker 1: been located. For those of you who would follow any 482 00:31:13,840 --> 00:31:26,880 Speaker 1: level of what's you call mafia kind of lore, tell 483 00:31:26,960 --> 00:31:30,280 Speaker 1: me this doesn't have the weird feel of the Luftanza heist, 484 00:31:34,560 --> 00:31:39,000 Speaker 1: right the whole plane was robbed and they recreated that 485 00:31:39,080 --> 00:31:44,640 Speaker 1: story in Goodfellas. Four hundred thousand dollars worth. A lobster 486 00:31:45,040 --> 00:31:49,640 Speaker 1: goes into a trailer, goes into a truck, and then disappears. 487 00:31:50,400 --> 00:31:54,120 Speaker 1: Costco has no comment. The local police department has no comment. 488 00:31:54,400 --> 00:31:59,360 Speaker 1: The FBI is looking into it. No one has found 489 00:32:00,080 --> 00:32:06,880 Speaker 1: anything where it gets really strange. Is not the story itself? 490 00:32:07,000 --> 00:32:11,520 Speaker 1: Is this follow up? Cargo thefts are a regular occurrence 491 00:32:11,600 --> 00:32:23,560 Speaker 1: and growing concern nationwide. What exactly how often is this happening? Well, 492 00:32:23,600 --> 00:32:25,560 Speaker 1: they don't give me data on that. They give me 493 00:32:25,680 --> 00:32:28,200 Speaker 1: data on this as it's in the Department of Homeland Security. 494 00:32:29,280 --> 00:32:34,080 Speaker 1: Cargo thefts account for fifteen billion to thirty five billion 495 00:32:34,160 --> 00:32:42,560 Speaker 1: in annual losses. Okay, that's real money, and that's why 496 00:32:42,600 --> 00:32:46,080 Speaker 1: you pay more for stuff. Now it's no longer acute. 497 00:32:46,080 --> 00:32:48,520 Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, did you hear about this story? Now 498 00:32:48,560 --> 00:32:52,160 Speaker 1: it's up find these bastards, and Tony's right, cut their 499 00:32:52,200 --> 00:32:56,040 Speaker 1: hands off. Seriously, Tony, I don't think you can say 500 00:32:56,080 --> 00:32:58,640 Speaker 1: that on air. For the sake of my affiliates. I'm 501 00:32:58,640 --> 00:33:02,720 Speaker 1: not actually saying to do that. I am saying, prosecute 502 00:33:02,760 --> 00:33:08,440 Speaker 1: these people. Wink, wink everybody. Everybody. Everybody knows where I'm at. Now, 503 00:33:10,400 --> 00:33:14,560 Speaker 1: thirty five billion dollars. You understand you're paying more for 504 00:33:14,640 --> 00:33:18,959 Speaker 1: everything because of that, because that loss gets made up. You. 505 00:33:19,320 --> 00:33:21,880 Speaker 1: We think the Minnesota fraud story is a big deal 506 00:33:22,040 --> 00:33:30,360 Speaker 1: and it is thirty five billion dollars. Yeah, I don't 507 00:33:30,400 --> 00:33:33,840 Speaker 1: want the FBI working on this. Let me let me 508 00:33:34,840 --> 00:33:37,920 Speaker 1: at least explain a little bit deeper. If we have 509 00:33:38,080 --> 00:33:41,120 Speaker 1: them working on this, what serious things do we not 510 00:33:41,200 --> 00:33:45,840 Speaker 1: have them working on? We have thirty five billion dollars 511 00:33:45,840 --> 00:33:49,640 Speaker 1: in theft. I've got a video camera every seven feet 512 00:33:49,720 --> 00:33:53,080 Speaker 1: except at Brown University, and we can't find this guy 513 00:33:53,200 --> 00:33:58,200 Speaker 1: thirty five billion. We gotta find ways to end this, 514 00:33:58,480 --> 00:34:01,360 Speaker 1: and we have to have much harsh penalties so people 515 00:34:01,400 --> 00:34:04,840 Speaker 1: don't try this craziness, although some people will continue to 516 00:34:04,880 --> 00:34:09,560 Speaker 1: be crazy. Three stories, three more things you needed to hear. 517 00:34:09,760 --> 00:34:12,640 Speaker 1: Keep it here. I'm Tony Katz. This is Tony Katz Today. 518 00:34:12,719 --> 00:34:15,120 Speaker 1: Find it all at Tony kats dot com. So it 519 00:34:15,160 --> 00:34:19,960 Speaker 1: was a drone strike on a port in Venezuela. Tony Katz, 520 00:34:20,400 --> 00:34:22,560 Speaker 1: Tony Katz today, Good to be here, Good to be 521 00:34:22,640 --> 00:34:27,799 Speaker 1: with you, carried out by the CIA, as is reported. 522 00:34:29,960 --> 00:34:33,640 Speaker 1: I think Trump brought this up today. We had this 523 00:34:35,400 --> 00:34:40,440 Speaker 1: serious strike against a place known for packing and shipping 524 00:34:40,480 --> 00:34:47,000 Speaker 1: out the drugs. I think that for Americans, they see 525 00:34:47,040 --> 00:34:50,000 Speaker 1: this as we're putting an end to the drug trafficking 526 00:34:50,080 --> 00:34:53,960 Speaker 1: in the United States good. I think for progressives they 527 00:34:54,000 --> 00:34:56,759 Speaker 1: hate everything, so it doesn't matter. And I think for 528 00:34:56,920 --> 00:35:00,080 Speaker 1: members of Congress this puts them one step closer. I 529 00:35:00,120 --> 00:35:04,640 Speaker 1: would assume to something regarding if we're declaring war here, 530 00:35:04,680 --> 00:35:06,200 Speaker 1: you have to come to us. So we're putting an 531 00:35:06,280 --> 00:35:09,320 Speaker 1: end to this right now. Now. They can't actually stop 532 00:35:09,320 --> 00:35:11,320 Speaker 1: the commander in chief from being the commander in chief, 533 00:35:11,640 --> 00:35:18,160 Speaker 1: but they can demand a conversation about a declaration of war. 534 00:35:18,440 --> 00:35:21,840 Speaker 1: Are we at war with Venezuela. No one was president 535 00:35:21,880 --> 00:35:24,680 Speaker 1: at the facility, as is reported when it got hit. 536 00:35:24,719 --> 00:35:28,879 Speaker 1: There were no casualties believed to be used by the 537 00:35:29,280 --> 00:35:33,440 Speaker 1: gang trend to Ragua Again, I have no sympathy for 538 00:35:33,440 --> 00:35:35,440 Speaker 1: trend to Aragua to help with them and anybody's a 539 00:35:35,440 --> 00:35:38,279 Speaker 1: member of them. I have no issue with taking out 540 00:35:38,440 --> 00:35:42,160 Speaker 1: the drug trafficking. Yes, I believe that the moves here 541 00:35:42,239 --> 00:35:45,319 Speaker 1: are based on data, and no one has shown me otherwise. 542 00:35:45,719 --> 00:35:48,359 Speaker 1: I don't know if the military has to prove it 543 00:35:48,440 --> 00:35:53,880 Speaker 1: in that regard to me, maybe to Congress again, I 544 00:35:53,920 --> 00:35:57,799 Speaker 1: think America is fine with these moves. If Congress wants 545 00:35:57,840 --> 00:36:00,720 Speaker 1: to act, which I have no issue, then they should act. 546 00:36:01,280 --> 00:36:05,000 Speaker 1: Find everything at tony kats dot com tomorrow everyone take care.
