1
00:00:00,560 --> 00:00:05,359
Speaker 1: Hammer and Nigel Do you believe these characters are weirdos?

2
00:00:06,080 --> 00:00:09,920
Speaker 2: Ah, let's do this. My name is Nigel Ethan Hatcher

3
00:00:10,680 --> 00:00:14,720
Speaker 2: in for Hammer Today, host of Saturday Nights on the Circle.

4
00:00:15,480 --> 00:00:19,680
Speaker 2: Consummate professional fill in property owner several How many properties

5
00:00:19,720 --> 00:00:25,040
Speaker 2: do you own across the central Indie About nineteen? That's

6
00:00:25,079 --> 00:00:28,520
Speaker 2: amazing and it's living like a lot of work. It

7
00:00:28,640 --> 00:00:29,720
Speaker 2: is a lot of work.

8
00:00:29,600 --> 00:00:31,560
Speaker 1: Especially when the properties are falling apart and you need

9
00:00:31,560 --> 00:00:33,040
Speaker 1: to put a lot of money to fix them up.

10
00:00:33,400 --> 00:00:34,159
Speaker 1: It's an official.

11
00:00:34,360 --> 00:00:36,360
Speaker 2: Here's what else is a lot of work. The head

12
00:00:36,400 --> 00:00:39,640
Speaker 2: of the DHS, Department of Homeland Security. I think it's

13
00:00:40,600 --> 00:00:44,320
Speaker 2: the government's federal government's, you know, one of the top

14
00:00:45,400 --> 00:00:49,800
Speaker 2: in terms of employment, top federal entities as far as

15
00:00:49,880 --> 00:00:55,080
Speaker 2: size is concerned. So anyway, they got a new head

16
00:00:55,240 --> 00:01:01,040
Speaker 2: of DHS confirmed here, Mark Wayne Mullen confirmed new DHS

17
00:01:01,120 --> 00:01:06,920
Speaker 2: Secretary the fifty four to forty five vote, and there

18
00:01:06,959 --> 00:01:08,600
Speaker 2: was applause after it was on.

19
00:01:08,560 --> 00:01:11,360
Speaker 1: This vote, the eyes are fifty four. The nayser forty

20
00:01:11,360 --> 00:01:13,920
Speaker 1: five denomination of Mark White Mullen of Oklahoma to be

21
00:01:13,959 --> 00:01:15,880
Speaker 1: Secretary of Homeland Security is concerning.

22
00:01:18,800 --> 00:01:23,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, so you know, Christy Nome was kind of a

23
00:01:23,600 --> 00:01:25,679
Speaker 2: disaster after the fact.

24
00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:28,440
Speaker 1: Way, yes, and I.

25
00:01:28,319 --> 00:01:30,120
Speaker 2: Think what did it for Trump? But I mean the

26
00:01:30,160 --> 00:01:34,399
Speaker 2: optics of what happened in Minnesota. Even though I am

27
00:01:36,080 --> 00:01:38,639
Speaker 2: you know, you could have a debate on what happened

28
00:01:38,680 --> 00:01:41,160
Speaker 2: with you're talking about Renee Good and Alex pretty pretty

29
00:01:41,440 --> 00:01:44,520
Speaker 2: and good. I don't think there's a debate there. With

30
00:01:44,800 --> 00:01:49,400
Speaker 2: the first one. She obviously gunned it and tried to

31
00:01:49,440 --> 00:01:52,080
Speaker 2: run over that guy. That's my perspective. They're still doing

32
00:01:52,080 --> 00:01:55,560
Speaker 2: the investigation. But anyway, the whole optics of ice in

33
00:01:55,640 --> 00:01:59,840
Speaker 2: Minnesota was a disaster. The whole thing with Christine nom

34
00:02:00,480 --> 00:02:04,760
Speaker 2: putting out the two hundred million dollar ad taxpayer money

35
00:02:04,880 --> 00:02:09,720
Speaker 2: funded promoting herself and DHS.

36
00:02:10,200 --> 00:02:12,120
Speaker 1: At least according to the scuttle butt, that's really what

37
00:02:12,160 --> 00:02:15,200
Speaker 1: got Trump's goat that she wasted two hundred million dollars

38
00:02:15,200 --> 00:02:18,639
Speaker 1: on an AD campaign that prominently featured herself. Yeah, one

39
00:02:18,639 --> 00:02:20,400
Speaker 1: of these ad campaigns she was spending I think it

40
00:02:20,400 --> 00:02:24,080
Speaker 1: was upside words of six thousand dollars just on makeup

41
00:02:24,280 --> 00:02:26,040
Speaker 1: for the commercial that was shot at the Fleet of

42
00:02:26,480 --> 00:02:29,720
Speaker 1: Mount Rushmore. So, yeah, that's a a little bit of

43
00:02:29,720 --> 00:02:30,240
Speaker 1: a disaster.

44
00:02:30,680 --> 00:02:35,080
Speaker 2: Infidelity accusations, which I think all but have been confirmed

45
00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:38,600
Speaker 2: with her and Corey Lewdowski, who are both married. Trump

46
00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:41,240
Speaker 2: it was. It was a big deal because that was

47
00:02:41,280 --> 00:02:45,800
Speaker 2: the first firing in the Trump cabinet in the Trump administration.

48
00:02:46,560 --> 00:02:50,800
Speaker 2: And Mark Wayne Mullen, I think is a good replacement.

49
00:02:51,160 --> 00:02:55,800
Speaker 2: He's an immigration hardliner guy. He has tons of experience

50
00:02:55,800 --> 00:02:59,160
Speaker 2: in the government. You know, we're talking about federal agencies

51
00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:03,919
Speaker 2: and lawmaking decade plus in Congress and Senate. And the

52
00:03:03,960 --> 00:03:06,640
Speaker 2: big thing is and this is why I think hopefully

53
00:03:08,360 --> 00:03:10,880
Speaker 2: DHS is going to get funded. Yeah, welcome, you just

54
00:03:10,919 --> 00:03:14,120
Speaker 2: got named head of DHS. You're not getting paid. I

55
00:03:14,120 --> 00:03:16,639
Speaker 2: don't think the head of DHS is getting paid right now, right,

56
00:03:16,720 --> 00:03:19,000
Speaker 2: I mean if the TSA agents are getting paid the

57
00:03:19,040 --> 00:03:21,680
Speaker 2: head of but they get the back pay eventually they're

58
00:03:21,720 --> 00:03:26,000
Speaker 2: gonna get in a retroactively. Yes, but that's not helping

59
00:03:26,040 --> 00:03:27,720
Speaker 2: out the tsaa's assessment.

60
00:03:27,880 --> 00:03:30,320
Speaker 1: He can afford it. They've made they've made coashy stocks. Yeah,

61
00:03:30,360 --> 00:03:31,840
Speaker 1: I understand now you do.

62
00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:34,960
Speaker 2: You're stepping away from your role as senator, right is

63
00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:36,880
Speaker 2: that that's a promo?

64
00:03:36,960 --> 00:03:40,160
Speaker 1: It's like a downgrade, you think, so, Yeah, because your

65
00:03:40,160 --> 00:03:45,520
Speaker 1: appointment is DHS is temporary, but a Senator Satoru virtually forever.

66
00:03:45,560 --> 00:03:46,560
Speaker 1: Look at Mitch McConnell.

67
00:03:46,600 --> 00:03:48,920
Speaker 2: It could his seat. I don't know if it was

68
00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:52,760
Speaker 2: safe long term. He's only held that seat since twenty

69
00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:56,720
Speaker 2: twenty three and hadn't He's not yet won a full

70
00:03:56,880 --> 00:03:59,640
Speaker 2: six year term there in Oklahoma. But also, you got

71
00:03:59,680 --> 00:04:01,600
Speaker 2: to think that the head of DHS is just head

72
00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:04,040
Speaker 2: of one department, but a senator and one of the

73
00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:06,920
Speaker 2: one hundred most powerful men in the United States. They are.

74
00:04:08,560 --> 00:04:11,520
Speaker 1: It is a more prestigious operation than say the Senate.

75
00:04:11,520 --> 00:04:12,200
Speaker 1: They're the House.

76
00:04:12,480 --> 00:04:16,240
Speaker 2: It's much more prestigious, which he did serve in the House,

77
00:04:16,279 --> 00:04:18,720
Speaker 2: by the way, but the dh like two hundred and

78
00:04:18,760 --> 00:04:23,480
Speaker 2: sixty thousand employees, it's one of the biggest agencies under

79
00:04:23,560 --> 00:04:28,719
Speaker 2: the federal government TSA, FEMA, Border Security Secret Service.

80
00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:33,039
Speaker 1: And he's got to Macula like Atlas right now with

81
00:04:33,080 --> 00:04:35,360
Speaker 1: the weight of the world on his shoulders. Literally, Yeah,

82
00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:35,640
Speaker 1: I know.

83
00:04:35,839 --> 00:04:39,560
Speaker 2: So that is Mark Wayne Mullen in a nutshell TSA

84
00:04:39,720 --> 00:04:43,000
Speaker 2: like you mentioned, still not getting paid but going to

85
00:04:43,040 --> 00:04:48,160
Speaker 2: work anyway. I could not imagine. Look, I know this

86
00:04:48,200 --> 00:04:50,920
Speaker 2: is going to get done eventually, but it's been five weeks.

87
00:04:50,960 --> 00:04:55,360
Speaker 2: They've missed multiple paychecks, it's not a glamorous job. I

88
00:04:55,680 --> 00:04:59,719
Speaker 2: leave it to the Democrats help me, you know, to

89
00:04:59,800 --> 00:05:04,160
Speaker 2: Lea needed to defend TSA. You know they're facilitating me

90
00:05:04,320 --> 00:05:10,360
Speaker 2: defending TEA. I've been felt up like hard by TSA.

91
00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:12,760
Speaker 2: Like I've got the old back of the hand a

92
00:05:12,760 --> 00:05:15,320
Speaker 2: few times back. I'm the back of the hand across

93
00:05:15,320 --> 00:05:19,360
Speaker 2: the plums. Yeah, no question about it. Sorry, Allison. You

94
00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:22,240
Speaker 2: might clip that for the montage Friday, even though I'm

95
00:05:22,240 --> 00:05:27,000
Speaker 2: not gonna be here. But the good news is Trump.

96
00:05:27,360 --> 00:05:29,560
Speaker 2: We've had that story the other day of Elon Musk

97
00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:34,159
Speaker 2: putting it out there world's richest man eight and fifty

98
00:05:34,200 --> 00:05:39,480
Speaker 2: billion dollars is wants to sign TSA's paychecks while they're

99
00:05:39,520 --> 00:05:45,279
Speaker 2: being defunded. Trump was asked about that today or yesterday.

100
00:05:43,680 --> 00:05:47,680
Speaker 1: And one must has offered a TSA phs shut up.

101
00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:48,680
Speaker 3: Is this something that you've.

102
00:05:48,600 --> 00:05:49,520
Speaker 4: Been peaking them about that?

103
00:05:49,680 --> 00:05:50,120
Speaker 1: I love it.

104
00:05:50,200 --> 00:05:51,640
Speaker 3: I think it's great. Let him do that.

105
00:05:51,839 --> 00:05:54,480
Speaker 4: And I want to thank Ice because they said SI

106
00:05:54,600 --> 00:05:56,040
Speaker 4: so so strongly.

107
00:05:56,120 --> 00:06:00,000
Speaker 1: Enough Doug it ray and if that's not enough, I'll bring.

108
00:05:59,880 --> 00:06:01,640
Speaker 4: It the National Guard. We're not going to have the

109
00:06:01,680 --> 00:06:07,360
Speaker 4: Democrats destroy out. These people are the most destructive six.

110
00:06:07,200 --> 00:06:10,839
Speaker 2: People, so, and he mentioned ICE going to the airports

111
00:06:10,880 --> 00:06:14,400
Speaker 2: to help facilitate the security and the long lines and

112
00:06:14,480 --> 00:06:19,240
Speaker 2: some of the major airports, I mean within hours in Atlanta.

113
00:06:19,279 --> 00:06:21,320
Speaker 2: We als saw the footage from Atlanta over the weekend,

114
00:06:21,400 --> 00:06:25,120
Speaker 2: like four hour waytimes, people missing their flights because TSA

115
00:06:25,200 --> 00:06:28,400
Speaker 2: agents aren't get TSA not getting paid, and then they're

116
00:06:28,440 --> 00:06:32,520
Speaker 2: calling in and not coming to work or finding different jobs.

117
00:06:33,080 --> 00:06:35,720
Speaker 2: But now that ICE is involved, Ethan, we see that

118
00:06:36,400 --> 00:06:40,880
Speaker 2: lines the airports, the waytimes going down again doing due

119
00:06:40,920 --> 00:06:44,200
Speaker 2: to Donald Trump sending ICE agents into help with security.

120
00:06:44,279 --> 00:06:46,720
Speaker 2: Even CNN is reporting positively.

121
00:06:47,320 --> 00:06:49,360
Speaker 4: Finally we can take a deep breath here the numbers

122
00:06:49,360 --> 00:06:52,200
Speaker 4: have dropped off into the lands. They're getting shorter. I

123
00:06:52,200 --> 00:06:55,040
Speaker 4: think the average waytime now is under forty minutes. So

124
00:06:55,839 --> 00:06:58,320
Speaker 4: there's a protest schedule at gets ICE here at the

125
00:06:58,360 --> 00:07:01,280
Speaker 4: airport in the next two hours. So now you have

126
00:07:01,360 --> 00:07:04,359
Speaker 4: extra police officers in the Atlanta Police Department ready to

127
00:07:04,400 --> 00:07:07,680
Speaker 4: respond to what may happen when protesters arrive. And we've

128
00:07:07,680 --> 00:07:09,960
Speaker 4: been told they actually applied for a permit. So now

129
00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:13,680
Speaker 4: you're bringing all these people surging him into one area.

130
00:07:13,800 --> 00:07:18,200
Speaker 2: Could you imagine Now ICE has helped passengers get to

131
00:07:18,240 --> 00:07:22,040
Speaker 2: their flights on time, and there's people showing up there.

132
00:07:22,120 --> 00:07:24,720
Speaker 2: And there was a protest yesterday at that guy was

133
00:07:24,760 --> 00:07:27,280
Speaker 2: in the Atlanta airport. I don't know what the official

134
00:07:27,360 --> 00:07:30,280
Speaker 2: name of it is, but there's a few dozen protesters

135
00:07:30,280 --> 00:07:31,840
Speaker 2: that showed up as no big deal.

136
00:07:31,800 --> 00:07:34,920
Speaker 1: What a bunch losers. But I think I've got a

137
00:07:34,960 --> 00:07:38,440
Speaker 1: solution to this problem, Nigel. Everybody else they can go

138
00:07:38,560 --> 00:07:40,920
Speaker 1: in the quick line where the ICE agents are helping

139
00:07:40,920 --> 00:07:43,720
Speaker 1: out and getting everybody checked in, and the protesters they

140
00:07:43,720 --> 00:07:45,880
Speaker 1: can wait for four hours. Just give them their own

141
00:07:45,880 --> 00:07:48,000
Speaker 1: little separate waiting room and make them step off to

142
00:07:48,040 --> 00:07:50,440
Speaker 1: the side. You can wait for four hours since you

143
00:07:50,480 --> 00:07:53,040
Speaker 1: want to protest ICE. Everybody else they get to get

144
00:07:53,120 --> 00:07:55,840
Speaker 1: checked into the airplane ahead of you. It's gotta burn.

145
00:07:56,440 --> 00:08:00,000
Speaker 2: I mean, just if you're a liberal progressive that's got

146
00:08:00,160 --> 00:08:03,760
Speaker 2: to fly through one of these major airports and you've

147
00:08:03,760 --> 00:08:06,040
Speaker 2: got to sit there and look at ICE. Hey, at

148
00:08:06,080 --> 00:08:11,040
Speaker 2: least they're unmasked, right, that's what you wanted. You didn't

149
00:08:11,040 --> 00:08:12,640
Speaker 2: want masks on ICE.

150
00:08:13,040 --> 00:08:15,560
Speaker 1: But they're still arresting illegals in the airport, which they

151
00:08:15,560 --> 00:08:18,280
Speaker 1: also had a problem with. I saw, I forget which

152
00:08:18,320 --> 00:08:19,880
Speaker 1: airport this was you're talking.

153
00:08:19,640 --> 00:08:23,440
Speaker 2: About San Francisco, and it was before ICE was deployed

154
00:08:23,800 --> 00:08:27,560
Speaker 2: by Donald Trump, and the lady fleed. The lady it

155
00:08:27,640 --> 00:08:31,120
Speaker 2: was she had been on like some sort of detainer

156
00:08:31,520 --> 00:08:34,280
Speaker 2: or some sort of scheduled to deport since twenty nineteen,

157
00:08:34,840 --> 00:08:39,080
Speaker 2: and it was before ICE was actually deployed by Donald Trump.

158
00:08:39,120 --> 00:08:40,640
Speaker 1: Well, get talking about I think we might be talking

159
00:08:40,640 --> 00:08:41,640
Speaker 1: about separate incidents.

160
00:08:41,679 --> 00:08:46,120
Speaker 2: But if it's a one at San Francisco anyway, Corey Booker,

161
00:08:46,720 --> 00:08:52,080
Speaker 2: it's this ICE at the airports, is you know, helping

162
00:08:52,120 --> 00:08:57,520
Speaker 2: reduce weight times for Americans traveling? Sending Democrats into a tailspin.

163
00:08:57,640 --> 00:09:02,520
Speaker 2: The great Senator from Jersey, Cory Booker is throwing a

164
00:09:02,600 --> 00:09:03,560
Speaker 2: temper tantrum.

165
00:09:04,400 --> 00:09:08,599
Speaker 3: And so what's happening today in America that should outrage everybody.

166
00:09:09,200 --> 00:09:13,360
Speaker 3: He's taking the very same agency that has been bursting

167
00:09:13,400 --> 00:09:20,079
Speaker 3: into our schools, into our churches, into our hospitals, into

168
00:09:20,120 --> 00:09:24,560
Speaker 3: our courts and even the homes of Americans. He's taking

169
00:09:24,559 --> 00:09:27,280
Speaker 3: that agency that is reckless as out of control and

170
00:09:27,320 --> 00:09:30,959
Speaker 3: bringing them to our airports under the lie that somehow

171
00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:33,720
Speaker 3: this is going to help deal with the long lines

172
00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:35,480
Speaker 3: that he created.

173
00:09:35,120 --> 00:09:39,240
Speaker 1: In the first place. It wasn't a lie This isn't outrage.

174
00:09:39,080 --> 00:09:42,520
Speaker 2: It wasn't a lie. Just look listen to that CNN

175
00:09:42,600 --> 00:09:47,680
Speaker 2: clip that I just played. The Atlanta My wife's boss

176
00:09:47,720 --> 00:09:51,319
Speaker 2: flew out of Atlanta this morning. Took him forty minutes.

177
00:09:51,720 --> 00:09:54,800
Speaker 2: Went over the weekend, it was four hours to get

178
00:09:54,800 --> 00:09:59,680
Speaker 2: through TSA because of the shortage and the defunding and

179
00:09:59,720 --> 00:10:01,240
Speaker 2: then not getting a paycheck.

180
00:10:01,400 --> 00:10:04,000
Speaker 1: That seems like a pretty night and day difference to me.

181
00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:07,080
Speaker 1: And you got to give points to Donald Trump for creativity.
