The President is expected to tout his 23 00:01:28,280 --> 00:01:32,880 Speaker 1: administration's economic successes, and he is also predicting big things 24 00:01:32,959 --> 00:01:36,720 Speaker 1: in the year ahead. He stopped to talk to reporters 25 00:01:36,760 --> 00:01:39,920 Speaker 1: while at that machine shed and addressed a number of 26 00:01:39,920 --> 00:01:45,119 Speaker 1: different topics, including the continuing unrest in Minneapolis. Once again, 27 00:01:45,160 --> 00:01:47,880 Speaker 1: we will dip into the President's speech once it gets 28 00:01:47,960 --> 00:01:50,920 Speaker 1: underway here on the Dan o'donald show, new information about 29 00:01:50,920 --> 00:01:53,840 Speaker 1: Alex Preddy, the man from Green Bay shot and killed 30 00:01:53,840 --> 00:01:56,840 Speaker 1: by law enforcement in Minneapolis while he was armed in 31 00:01:56,960 --> 00:02:00,800 Speaker 1: violently resisting rest on Saturday morning. This is not his 32 00:02:01,080 --> 00:02:06,000 Speaker 1: first time obstructing immigration enforcement in recent weeks. The complete 33 00:02:06,040 --> 00:02:09,880 Speaker 1: story coming up in just a second. Now, why is 34 00:02:09,960 --> 00:02:14,120 Speaker 1: it that Democrats are fighting so hard to prevent ice 35 00:02:14,160 --> 00:02:19,320 Speaker 1: from deporting dangerous, criminal illegal aliens. It just might have 36 00:02:19,560 --> 00:02:23,800 Speaker 1: something to do with brand new census data estimates out today, 37 00:02:23,880 --> 00:02:28,000 Speaker 1: we will explain in the four o'clock hour. At least 38 00:02:28,040 --> 00:02:31,280 Speaker 1: twenty three people are confirmed dead after a massive winter 39 00:02:31,360 --> 00:02:34,400 Speaker 1: storm swept through much of the US over the weekend. 40 00:02:34,680 --> 00:02:39,840 Speaker 1: Widespread power outages, flight cancelations do persist, and now frigid 41 00:02:39,919 --> 00:02:46,280 Speaker 1: cold temperatures are moving in, especially in the Northeast.

Alex was described by his 57 00:03:49,320 --> 00:03:54,480 Speaker 2: family and friends as conscientious, civic minded individual who cared 58 00:03:54,480 --> 00:03:58,200 Speaker 2: for veterans, his community, and the people around him. His 59 00:03:58,360 --> 00:04:01,720 Speaker 2: life reflects the value that we strive to instill in 60 00:04:01,720 --> 00:04:09,800 Speaker 2: our students compassion, service, and responsibility to others. 61 00:04:08,080 --> 00:04:12,920 Speaker 1: Is one of those values. Repeatedly stalking and attempting to 62 00:04:13,120 --> 00:04:19,479 Speaker 1: interfere with law enforcement operations because if it is, then yes, 63 00:04:19,720 --> 00:04:26,280 Speaker 1: absolutely Alex Pretty embodied those ideals. New reporting this afternoon 64 00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:33,159 Speaker 1: from CNN's Priscilla Alvarez indicates that this Saturday shooting was 65 00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:37,480 Speaker 1: not Pretty's first encounter with law enforcement agents in Minneapolis, 66 00:04:37,839 --> 00:04:42,600 Speaker 1: that in fact, he has been apparently stalking ICE agents 67 00:04:42,640 --> 00:04:47,080 Speaker 1: as part of the well coordinated signal group, and in fact, 68 00:04:47,520 --> 00:04:50,960 Speaker 1: a number of eagle eyed Internet users have found what 69 00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:56,720 Speaker 1: they believe to be Alex Pretti's signal call sign on 70 00:04:56,800 --> 00:04:59,920 Speaker 1: that big chat that was coordinating the anti ICE rest 71 00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:05,320 Speaker 1: sponsor in Minneapolis. Alvarez reported today that in fact, Preddy 72 00:05:05,600 --> 00:05:08,880 Speaker 1: was so violent in a previous encounter with ICE that 73 00:05:08,960 --> 00:05:11,119 Speaker 1: it took five agents to take him to the ground, 74 00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:13,599 Speaker 1: and that Preddy suffered a broken rib. 75 00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:17,760 Speaker 3: Now in this earlier incident, he stopped his car after 76 00:05:17,880 --> 00:05:22,080 Speaker 3: observing ICE agents chasing what he described as a family 77 00:05:22,200 --> 00:05:26,200 Speaker 3: on foot, and began shouting and blowing his whistle. Pretty 78 00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:29,359 Speaker 3: later told one of these sources that five agents tackled 79 00:05:29,440 --> 00:05:33,440 Speaker 3: him and one leaned pat on his back. Appearing to 80 00:05:33,800 --> 00:05:36,599 Speaker 3: leave him with a broken rib. According to this source, 81 00:05:36,640 --> 00:05:39,960 Speaker 3: and I'm quoting here that said quote that day, he 82 00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:43,400 Speaker 3: thought he was going to die. Now, Preddy was later 83 00:05:43,440 --> 00:05:46,880 Speaker 3: given medication that is consistent with treating a broken rib, 84 00:05:46,920 --> 00:05:51,240 Speaker 3: according to records reviewed by CNN. Versus also say that 85 00:05:51,360 --> 00:05:54,640 Speaker 3: he was known to federal law enforcement, though it's unclear 86 00:05:54,640 --> 00:05:58,280 Speaker 3: whether it was this incident or another with federal agents 87 00:05:58,360 --> 00:06:01,680 Speaker 3: that they they knew him, they knew of him. 88 00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:03,320 Speaker 1: It's also unclear. 89 00:06:02,960 --> 00:06:06,240 Speaker 3: Whether the officers who tackled him on Saturday knew who 90 00:06:06,320 --> 00:06:06,880 Speaker 3: he was. 91 00:06:08,080 --> 00:06:12,520 Speaker 1: That Priscilla Alvarez from CNN dot com. Now this fits 92 00:06:12,560 --> 00:06:17,799 Speaker 1: in with earlier reporting that Pretty's own parents were basically 93 00:06:17,880 --> 00:06:21,679 Speaker 1: pleading with him to not get involved in a violent 94 00:06:21,760 --> 00:06:27,640 Speaker 1: confrontation with ice officers. Now this definitely does check. Is 95 00:06:27,680 --> 00:06:31,000 Speaker 1: it possible that a week ago they were made aware 96 00:06:31,040 --> 00:06:34,360 Speaker 1: of the earlier incident with their son. Maybe he told them, 97 00:06:34,480 --> 00:06:38,159 Speaker 1: maybe a family member. I saw his sister was out 98 00:06:38,160 --> 00:06:41,880 Speaker 1: today blasting the quote misinformation about her brother, whom she 99 00:06:42,040 --> 00:06:46,120 Speaker 1: called a hero. What is abundantly clear is that Alex 100 00:06:46,200 --> 00:06:50,920 Speaker 1: Pretty was violating federal law not once, but twice in 101 00:06:51,160 --> 00:06:56,520 Speaker 1: attempting to assault or resist or impede a federal officer, 102 00:06:56,560 --> 00:06:59,320 Speaker 1: as we established yesterday, that is a direct violation of 103 00:06:59,360 --> 00:07:03,080 Speaker 1: eighteen US Code Section one to eleven, in relevant part. 104 00:07:03,120 --> 00:07:09,600 Speaker 1: Whoever forcibly assaults, resists, opposes, impedes, intimidates, or interferes with 105 00:07:09,680 --> 00:07:13,320 Speaker 1: any person while engaged in, or on account of the 106 00:07:13,400 --> 00:07:17,600 Speaker 1: performance of official duties, shall be fined under this title 107 00:07:17,720 --> 00:07:22,920 Speaker 1: or imprison not more than one year, or both. Rather obviously, 108 00:07:23,320 --> 00:07:28,280 Speaker 1: on multiple occasions, Alex Pretti was violating that exact statute. 109 00:07:28,480 --> 00:07:30,920 Speaker 1: If it can be established that he was part of 110 00:07:30,960 --> 00:07:34,560 Speaker 1: this signal chat, he would also be in violation of 111 00:07:34,640 --> 00:07:38,920 Speaker 1: eighteen US Code Section three seventy two Conspiracy to impede 112 00:07:39,080 --> 00:07:42,240 Speaker 1: or injure an officer. That reads, in relevant part, if 113 00:07:42,240 --> 00:07:45,560 Speaker 1: two or more persons conspired to molest, interrupt, hinder, or 114 00:07:45,720 --> 00:07:49,560 Speaker 1: impede an officer in the discharge of his official duties, 115 00:07:50,160 --> 00:07:53,400 Speaker 1: each of such persons shall be fined under this title 116 00:07:53,560 --> 00:07:59,360 Speaker 1: or imprison not more than six years, or both. Not 117 00:07:59,480 --> 00:08:05,480 Speaker 1: only that Renee Good, who was very obviously positioning her 118 00:08:05,640 --> 00:08:08,920 Speaker 1: car along with her wife in such a way as 119 00:08:08,960 --> 00:08:12,400 Speaker 1: to block the road from Ice agents whom they knew 120 00:08:12,760 --> 00:08:17,640 Speaker 1: were following them, she was also very obviously guilty of 121 00:08:17,720 --> 00:08:21,320 Speaker 1: both of those federal statutes. In fact, since it only 122 00:08:21,360 --> 00:08:24,240 Speaker 1: takes two people to form a conspiracy, even if Renee 123 00:08:24,240 --> 00:08:27,480 Speaker 1: and Rebecca Good were not part of that signal chat, 124 00:08:27,520 --> 00:08:30,240 Speaker 1: although it seems very likely that they were, and they 125 00:08:30,240 --> 00:08:33,400 Speaker 1: were very clearly there with other people, other cars in 126 00:08:33,559 --> 00:08:38,160 Speaker 1: some sort of procession stalking and impeding ice officers. If 127 00:08:38,160 --> 00:08:41,720 Speaker 1: it was just those two, they would be part of 128 00:08:41,760 --> 00:08:47,160 Speaker 1: a conspiracy. And since Alex Pretty was in the earlier event, 129 00:08:47,200 --> 00:08:52,920 Speaker 1: apparently with other people attempting to impede ice operations, then 130 00:08:52,960 --> 00:08:56,240 Speaker 1: he would also be guilty of that second statue. Now 131 00:08:56,679 --> 00:09:01,920 Speaker 1: does James Liary, the president of the Green Bay School Board, 132 00:09:02,160 --> 00:09:06,800 Speaker 1: still believe that Alex Pretty embodies the ideals of the 133 00:09:06,800 --> 00:09:10,440 Speaker 1: Green Bay School District? Maybe he does, because what a 134 00:09:10,520 --> 00:09:14,720 Speaker 1: small world this is. Do you know who James Liarly 135 00:09:15,240 --> 00:09:19,400 Speaker 1: is married to Yesterday's unhinged Liberal of the Day, doctor 136 00:09:19,559 --> 00:09:23,679 Speaker 1: Kristen Liarley, who is an obgy n in the Green 137 00:09:23,720 --> 00:09:28,239 Speaker 1: Bay area. She also identifies herself as a talk radio 138 00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:32,240 Speaker 1: host on the Civic Media Network. I still have no 139 00:09:32,360 --> 00:09:34,680 Speaker 1: actual evidence that she does a show. I have never 140 00:09:34,720 --> 00:09:37,480 Speaker 1: heard her show, I have never heard of her. I 141 00:09:37,480 --> 00:09:40,400 Speaker 1: have never seen any schedule including her on it, but 142 00:09:40,440 --> 00:09:41,880 Speaker 1: I'm just going to take her word for it that 143 00:09:41,920 --> 00:09:45,360 Speaker 1: she is also a liberal talk radio host. Now, what 144 00:09:45,480 --> 00:09:49,680 Speaker 1: she did was to tweet and delete a post on 145 00:09:50,080 --> 00:09:52,760 Speaker 1: x in which she said that she had it on 146 00:09:52,840 --> 00:09:57,040 Speaker 1: good authority. A very well placed source told the quote 147 00:09:57,120 --> 00:10:01,240 Speaker 1: unquote good doctor Liarly that I had booked up to 148 00:10:01,440 --> 00:10:06,480 Speaker 1: one hundred rooms at the Hilton Hotel in downtown Milwaukee. 149 00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:11,959 Speaker 1: This was completely and totally false, and she deleted the tweet. 150 00:10:12,559 --> 00:10:16,920 Speaker 1: This was an attempt to yes docs, interrupt, hinder, or 151 00:10:17,040 --> 00:10:21,920 Speaker 1: impede any officer on account of the performance of their 152 00:10:21,960 --> 00:10:25,959 Speaker 1: official duties. What if it was true, which I am 153 00:10:26,200 --> 00:10:29,200 Speaker 1: led to believe it was not, based on much better 154 00:10:29,280 --> 00:10:32,400 Speaker 1: sources than the ones that doctor Lyarley allegedly has that 155 00:10:32,480 --> 00:10:37,000 Speaker 1: ICE had never booked the downtown Hilton Hotel rooms. There 156 00:10:37,000 --> 00:10:40,640 Speaker 1: have been rumors for some time now that ICE was 157 00:10:40,679 --> 00:10:45,120 Speaker 1: going to turn tail and run out of Minneapolis and 158 00:10:45,320 --> 00:10:48,400 Speaker 1: instead go right down to Wisconsin, where there was going 159 00:10:48,480 --> 00:10:51,480 Speaker 1: to be a massive ICE operation here. This seems to 160 00:10:51,520 --> 00:10:54,040 Speaker 1: me to be a great deal of fear mongering. We 161 00:10:54,200 --> 00:10:58,200 Speaker 1: don't actually have a big illegal immigrant population in the 162 00:10:58,240 --> 00:11:01,400 Speaker 1: state of Wisconsin. And I have heard no evidence to 163 00:11:01,440 --> 00:11:04,840 Speaker 1: suggest that there is a large scale ICE operation or 164 00:11:05,200 --> 00:11:08,960 Speaker 1: any sort of immigration enforcement operation on par with what's 165 00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:12,640 Speaker 1: going on in Minneapolis or any other city. Yes, there 166 00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:17,000 Speaker 1: are large scale ICE operations going on, not just in Minneapolis, 167 00:11:17,280 --> 00:11:19,880 Speaker 1: but also in cities across the country. Oh, you haven't 168 00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:23,920 Speaker 1: heard about them because there isn't the large scale effort 169 00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:28,480 Speaker 1: to impede or to violently assault those officers like there 170 00:11:28,559 --> 00:11:32,040 Speaker 1: is in Minneapolis, because of the constant and I mean 171 00:11:32,240 --> 00:11:38,560 Speaker 1: constant provocation of leadership leadership of the Democratic Party not 172 00:11:38,720 --> 00:11:42,199 Speaker 1: just from the governor's mansion in Minnesota, Tim Walls, also 173 00:11:42,240 --> 00:11:44,880 Speaker 1: the mayor's office and Democrats all across the country. But 174 00:11:44,960 --> 00:11:49,000 Speaker 1: something interesting has happened over the last twenty four hours, 175 00:11:50,040 --> 00:11:55,280 Speaker 1: the exact same Tim Walls who on Sunday was comparing 176 00:11:55,480 --> 00:11:59,720 Speaker 1: ICE agents to Nazis, hunting and Frank and getting himself 177 00:11:59,720 --> 00:12:05,760 Speaker 1: a sh sharp rebuke from the Ann Frank Museum in Amsterdam. 178 00:12:06,720 --> 00:12:11,920 Speaker 1: He also completely changed his tune. Now all of a sudden, 179 00:12:12,400 --> 00:12:16,040 Speaker 1: he took a phone call or two with Hitler and 180 00:12:16,160 --> 00:12:22,800 Speaker 1: Tom Homan, the American Hitler's Gebels. What gives could it 181 00:12:22,960 --> 00:12:27,280 Speaker 1: be that Walls understands that this is a battle he 182 00:12:27,520 --> 00:12:32,640 Speaker 1: simply can't win, is it. Though a little bit deeper 183 00:12:32,640 --> 00:12:36,640 Speaker 1: than that, It is my very strong contention that the 184 00:12:36,880 --> 00:12:43,040 Speaker 1: revelation that this was in fact a very highly coordinated effort, 185 00:12:43,120 --> 00:12:47,920 Speaker 1: a conspiracy to impede or injure federal officers in direct 186 00:12:48,000 --> 00:12:52,080 Speaker 1: violation of eighteen US Code Section three seventy two, that 187 00:12:52,160 --> 00:12:57,400 Speaker 1: included not only hundreds of Minneapolis radicals like apparently Alex 188 00:12:57,440 --> 00:13:01,520 Speaker 1: Petty and very possibly Renee Good, but also top level 189 00:13:01,600 --> 00:13:06,040 Speaker 1: officials in the Walls administration, including potentially his own Lieutenant 190 00:13:06,120 --> 00:13:10,240 Speaker 1: Governor Peggy Flanagan, who, at the very outset of ICE's 191 00:13:10,280 --> 00:13:13,600 Speaker 1: announcement that it was going into Minneapolis to combat the 192 00:13:13,760 --> 00:13:17,720 Speaker 1: billions and billions and billions of dollars of Somali fraud, 193 00:13:18,720 --> 00:13:22,040 Speaker 1: told those crazies to quote put their bodies on the 194 00:13:22,120 --> 00:13:26,520 Speaker 1: line in order to stop Ice. Speaking of that fraud, 195 00:13:26,559 --> 00:13:29,960 Speaker 1: a Dan O'Donnell's show exclusive coming up in the five 196 00:13:29,960 --> 00:13:36,880 Speaker 1: o'clock hour, an education group is actually organizing assistance and 197 00:13:37,080 --> 00:13:43,520 Speaker 1: aid for the fraudulent Somali daycares. I couldn't believe the 198 00:13:43,600 --> 00:13:46,240 Speaker 1: email when I read it, and we will share it 199 00:13:46,280 --> 00:13:51,000 Speaker 1: coming up in the five o'clock hour. Coming up next, 200 00:13:51,200 --> 00:13:58,040 Speaker 1: a state representative slash gubernatorial candidate slash crazy person wants 201 00:13:58,080 --> 00:14:02,160 Speaker 1: to shut down Wisconsin's economy in the name of helping 202 00:14:02,280 --> 00:14:07,960 Speaker 1: illegal alien murderers and child rapists. It will not surprise 203 00:14:08,040 --> 00:14:10,079 Speaker 1: you at all to learn who it is that story 204 00:14:10,120 --> 00:14:14,319 Speaker 1: coming up next here on the Dan O'Donnell Show. If 205 00:14:14,360 --> 00:14:18,079 Speaker 1: I told you that one of the candidates for governor 206 00:14:18,080 --> 00:14:22,880 Speaker 1: on the Democrats side was trying to organize a boycott 207 00:14:23,000 --> 00:14:27,640 Speaker 1: to hurt Wisconsin's businesses in the name of protecting illegal 208 00:14:27,680 --> 00:14:32,800 Speaker 1: alien murderers and child rapists, which one would you think 209 00:14:32,840 --> 00:14:35,840 Speaker 1: it is? But yes, there are nine of them, and 210 00:14:35,960 --> 00:14:39,640 Speaker 1: well nine are perhaps equally likely. We'll tell you in 211 00:14:40,080 --> 00:14:44,160 Speaker 1: just a second. Just so we're clear about the type 212 00:14:44,200 --> 00:14:48,280 Speaker 1: of people who are out there protesting, and I use 213 00:14:48,360 --> 00:14:52,320 Speaker 1: that term very very loosely, the people who are out 214 00:14:52,360 --> 00:14:58,000 Speaker 1: there openly opposing and getting in the faces of ICE 215 00:14:58,080 --> 00:15:03,560 Speaker 1: agents are some the worst people that you could imagine. 216 00:15:03,840 --> 00:15:09,640 Speaker 1: Don't believe me. Listen to this voicemail left for an 217 00:15:09,680 --> 00:15:13,680 Speaker 1: ICE agent and picked up by Fox News. You're in 218 00:15:13,920 --> 00:15:17,720 Speaker 1: fastest pig. You should think kill yourself. 219 00:15:17,880 --> 00:15:20,440 Speaker 4: I hope your wife dies, I hope your mom and 220 00:15:20,520 --> 00:15:21,160 Speaker 4: dad die. 221 00:15:21,760 --> 00:15:26,320 Speaker 1: I hope everything wrong that could go in your life happens. 222 00:15:26,640 --> 00:15:27,800 Speaker 5: You should kill yourself. 223 00:15:27,880 --> 00:15:30,960 Speaker 4: You're pain disgusting. I hate you. 224 00:15:31,440 --> 00:15:33,000 Speaker 1: Everyone hates you. 225 00:15:32,360 --> 00:15:35,960 Speaker 6: You're a king murderer and all of your friends of 226 00:15:36,240 --> 00:15:38,200 Speaker 6: king murderers. 227 00:15:38,680 --> 00:15:46,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, charming fellow, that voicemail guy, the candidate for governor 228 00:15:46,280 --> 00:15:51,720 Speaker 1: who is quote standing with Minnesota in an ice out, 229 00:15:52,160 --> 00:15:57,600 Speaker 1: Justice for Alex Pretty, justice for Renee Good, nationwide shutdown 230 00:15:58,560 --> 00:16:03,880 Speaker 1: on Thursday, January thirtieth, or excuse me, on Friday, January thirtieth, 231 00:16:04,040 --> 00:16:08,000 Speaker 1: is in fact Francesca Hong, she tweeted out a few 232 00:16:08,000 --> 00:16:11,680 Speaker 1: hours ago. Last Friday, Minnesota launched a general strike that 233 00:16:11,800 --> 00:16:17,200 Speaker 1: shut down Minneapolis on January thirtieth. The movement goes nationwide, 234 00:16:17,240 --> 00:16:22,640 Speaker 1: no work, no school, no shopping. When we withhold our labor, 235 00:16:23,040 --> 00:16:27,760 Speaker 1: divest our dollars, and stand together in solidarity, the people 236 00:16:27,840 --> 00:16:32,600 Speaker 1: have real power. She then posts the poster for this 237 00:16:32,840 --> 00:16:37,119 Speaker 1: ice out, no work, no school, no shopping, nationwide shutdown, 238 00:16:37,240 --> 00:16:41,400 Speaker 1: following that out with a tweet, we demand justice for 239 00:16:41,480 --> 00:16:45,440 Speaker 1: Renee Good, Alex Pretty, and all victims of ice terror. 240 00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:48,640 Speaker 1: We reject the presence of ice and border patrol in 241 00:16:48,680 --> 00:16:52,240 Speaker 1: our communities. We condemned the violence, racism, and cruelty this 242 00:16:52,320 --> 00:16:56,160 Speaker 1: administration as normalized. Enough is enough, shut it down? Hashtag 243 00:16:56,240 --> 00:17:04,240 Speaker 1: ice out, hashtag strike so in order to protest a 244 00:17:04,640 --> 00:17:10,320 Speaker 1: federal action which she believes to be evil and awful, 245 00:17:11,800 --> 00:17:17,199 Speaker 1: she wants to hurt mom and pop businesses. Last night, 246 00:17:17,240 --> 00:17:22,119 Speaker 1: I went to a phenomenal new Korean barbecue place in 247 00:17:22,359 --> 00:17:24,720 Speaker 1: the community near where I live. I happen to be 248 00:17:24,800 --> 00:17:27,720 Speaker 1: there picking up a prescription after the show, and I thought, 249 00:17:27,920 --> 00:17:30,520 Speaker 1: you know what, the kids have all eaten. They had 250 00:17:30,640 --> 00:17:33,639 Speaker 1: final exams, at least the older ones did today for 251 00:17:33,800 --> 00:17:36,439 Speaker 1: high school. And I thought, you know, I'll stop in 252 00:17:37,040 --> 00:17:42,360 Speaker 1: so on Friday, the day when that business and it 253 00:17:42,480 --> 00:17:45,480 Speaker 1: was me and another woman in it. Granted it's a 254 00:17:45,520 --> 00:17:51,560 Speaker 1: Monday night, it's frigid, cold out, but this little business 255 00:17:51,600 --> 00:17:56,159 Speaker 1: definitely needs our support, needed my support. It needed my 256 00:17:56,400 --> 00:18:01,119 Speaker 1: nineteen dollars for the Korean beef barb. Whatever it was 257 00:18:01,160 --> 00:18:04,960 Speaker 1: that I got delicious. By the way, if you reach 258 00:18:04,960 --> 00:18:06,240 Speaker 1: out to me, I'll tell you what it is. I 259 00:18:06,560 --> 00:18:11,000 Speaker 1: just I don't like telling people where I live or 260 00:18:11,240 --> 00:18:14,879 Speaker 1: what places that I frequent. Because ladies and gentlemen, I 261 00:18:14,920 --> 00:18:17,560 Speaker 1: have gotten a few voicemails like that one that was 262 00:18:17,640 --> 00:18:20,679 Speaker 1: left for the Ice agents. So what Francesco Hang is 263 00:18:20,680 --> 00:18:24,560 Speaker 1: saying to this immigrant couple, I was actually talking to 264 00:18:24,600 --> 00:18:26,919 Speaker 1: them for a little bit, and they've been in this 265 00:18:27,040 --> 00:18:30,879 Speaker 1: country for some time. They were obviously it's a husband 266 00:18:30,920 --> 00:18:33,480 Speaker 1: and a wife. They were born in South Korea. They 267 00:18:33,520 --> 00:18:37,280 Speaker 1: came here legally to make a better life for themselves, 268 00:18:37,920 --> 00:18:40,720 Speaker 1: join up with family who is already here. They opened 269 00:18:40,720 --> 00:18:45,760 Speaker 1: a little Korean barbecue place. What Francesco Hang is saying 270 00:18:46,640 --> 00:18:52,040 Speaker 1: is we should hurt that couple their lifelong dream, their 271 00:18:52,160 --> 00:18:56,159 Speaker 1: business in order to support her pet cause. And her 272 00:18:56,200 --> 00:19:02,040 Speaker 1: pet cause, by the way, is not arresting dangerous rapists 273 00:19:02,080 --> 00:19:06,800 Speaker 1: and murderers. This is why, since I have struck out 274 00:19:07,240 --> 00:19:11,679 Speaker 1: on the cowardly pudgeball Congressman Mark Pocan getting him on 275 00:19:11,720 --> 00:19:15,919 Speaker 1: this program to debate me on immigration enforcement, I am 276 00:19:15,920 --> 00:19:22,639 Speaker 1: hereby challenging Francesca Hong, state representative in Madison, one of 277 00:19:22,680 --> 00:19:27,959 Speaker 1: my broadcast markets. She can reach more voters for her 278 00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:32,280 Speaker 1: gubernatorial run and more voters in her state legislative district 279 00:19:32,760 --> 00:19:35,720 Speaker 1: just by one appearance on my show than she ever 280 00:19:35,840 --> 00:19:40,800 Speaker 1: could with any other appearance anywhere. I will have her 281 00:19:40,840 --> 00:19:42,879 Speaker 1: on for as long as she wants. We can do 282 00:19:42,920 --> 00:19:45,720 Speaker 1: a full hour if she would like, and we are 283 00:19:45,760 --> 00:19:48,800 Speaker 1: going to debate. We can even do it on the 284 00:19:48,880 --> 00:19:52,880 Speaker 1: day of this nationwide shutdown. We are going to debate 285 00:19:53,160 --> 00:19:58,880 Speaker 1: federal law, the supremacy clause, the concept of federalism, her 286 00:19:58,960 --> 00:20:04,760 Speaker 1: support for left wing terrorism, and anything else related to 287 00:20:05,119 --> 00:20:12,080 Speaker 1: border and immigration enforcement. I'm about the easiest person in 288 00:20:12,119 --> 00:20:15,040 Speaker 1: the world to get a hold of. I look forward 289 00:20:15,400 --> 00:20:21,520 Speaker 1: to hearing from Representative Hang and or her representatives. Not 290 00:20:21,680 --> 00:20:28,600 Speaker 1: to be outdone. Former Lieutenant Governor Mandela affectionately known here 291 00:20:28,640 --> 00:20:33,000 Speaker 1: as Mandeadbeat Barnes because of his steadfast refusal to pay 292 00:20:33,040 --> 00:20:39,840 Speaker 1: property taxes or speeding tickets, posted a statement the day 293 00:20:40,040 --> 00:20:45,320 Speaker 1: of Alex Prette's killing. It's about as unhinged as you 294 00:20:45,320 --> 00:20:48,080 Speaker 1: would think. It cannot be lost on us that an 295 00:20:48,119 --> 00:20:51,800 Speaker 1: American citizen, and I see you, nurse Alex Pretty lost 296 00:20:51,800 --> 00:20:54,720 Speaker 1: his life this morning. Here I should interject, it is 297 00:20:54,920 --> 00:20:58,919 Speaker 1: very likely that Pretty in fact quit his job several 298 00:20:58,960 --> 00:21:03,399 Speaker 1: weeks ago in order to protest and to impede Ice 299 00:21:03,640 --> 00:21:08,879 Speaker 1: full time. What Ice is doing, Barnes continues, is not 300 00:21:09,000 --> 00:21:11,840 Speaker 1: law enforcement, and it makes all of us less safe. 301 00:21:12,440 --> 00:21:15,840 Speaker 1: Americans voted for lower prices and criminals off our streets. 302 00:21:15,880 --> 00:21:19,359 Speaker 1: Not whatever the hell this is. Agents operating in masks, 303 00:21:19,480 --> 00:21:23,160 Speaker 1: killing people with no accountability is pure lawlessness. They need 304 00:21:23,200 --> 00:21:26,720 Speaker 1: to be unmasked and investigated. Democratic and Republican governors alike 305 00:21:26,760 --> 00:21:29,760 Speaker 1: should come together to stand with Governor Walls and against 306 00:21:29,760 --> 00:21:33,119 Speaker 1: this violence being inflicted in all of our states. This 307 00:21:33,280 --> 00:21:35,280 Speaker 1: is wrong, and we need to use every bit of 308 00:21:35,359 --> 00:21:38,400 Speaker 1: leverage we have in this moment to stop it from continuing. 309 00:21:38,440 --> 00:21:43,440 Speaker 1: He signs it rather bizarrely, Lieutenant Governor Mandela Barnes. Now, 310 00:21:43,440 --> 00:21:47,560 Speaker 1: as anybody who knows anything about Wisconsin politics knows, Mandela 311 00:21:47,600 --> 00:21:51,399 Speaker 1: Barnes has not been Lieutenant governor of Wisconsin since early 312 00:21:51,520 --> 00:21:54,679 Speaker 1: January of twenty twenty three. It is now late January 313 00:21:55,200 --> 00:21:58,240 Speaker 1: of twenty twenty five. Why is he still referring to 314 00:21:58,359 --> 00:22:04,320 Speaker 1: himself as lieutenant rather obviously because unemployed guy Mandela Barnes 315 00:22:04,560 --> 00:22:07,159 Speaker 1: sounds a lot less impressive. At the bottom of a 316 00:22:07,240 --> 00:22:14,920 Speaker 1: press release, I am also hereby challenging Lieutenant Governor Mandela 317 00:22:14,960 --> 00:22:19,119 Speaker 1: bar I wonder how Sarah Rodriguez feels about Mande because 318 00:22:19,119 --> 00:22:22,640 Speaker 1: she is also she is also running for governor, and 319 00:22:22,760 --> 00:22:28,240 Speaker 1: she thought she had the absolute best, most heartfelt response 320 00:22:28,560 --> 00:22:32,320 Speaker 1: she said, I, by virtue of having an Hispanic last name, 321 00:22:32,440 --> 00:22:34,680 Speaker 1: I am a target of ice. She actually said that 322 00:22:34,800 --> 00:22:38,959 Speaker 1: she is about as white as it gets. She is 323 00:22:39,000 --> 00:22:42,560 Speaker 1: as white as low fat mayonnaise. That is how white 324 00:22:42,600 --> 00:22:50,560 Speaker 1: she is. She said during a Democratic candidate forum last week, 325 00:22:51,160 --> 00:22:54,360 Speaker 1: I am a target of ice. Ice could be kicking 326 00:22:54,400 --> 00:22:59,159 Speaker 1: down my door any minute now. She is also refusing 327 00:22:59,200 --> 00:23:02,200 Speaker 1: to answer any questions about her husband, who she keeps 328 00:23:02,200 --> 00:23:06,960 Speaker 1: saying is a naturalized citizen from Mexico. I have no 329 00:23:07,119 --> 00:23:12,080 Speaker 1: doubt that is true. But if it is, why would 330 00:23:12,160 --> 00:23:15,119 Speaker 1: she be worried about ice kicking down her door? Why 331 00:23:15,160 --> 00:23:17,560 Speaker 1: would she be saying I am a potential target of ice? 332 00:23:18,840 --> 00:23:27,800 Speaker 1: Baltazar Rodriguez, her husband is a naturalized citizen, right right. 333 00:23:29,119 --> 00:23:32,879 Speaker 1: One would think she'd have no problem answering this, But 334 00:23:33,040 --> 00:23:37,040 Speaker 1: since she has at this point refrained from saying anything 335 00:23:37,119 --> 00:23:41,720 Speaker 1: totally nuts, she put out a completely unhinged anti ice 336 00:23:41,760 --> 00:23:47,160 Speaker 1: proposal that was immediately slapped down by even her own governor, 337 00:23:47,560 --> 00:23:51,440 Speaker 1: Tony Evers, who said, yeah, well, that's probably not doable 338 00:23:51,520 --> 00:23:55,359 Speaker 1: because of you know, federalism and everything. I am hereby 339 00:23:55,480 --> 00:24:01,119 Speaker 1: challenging former Lieutenant Governor Mandela Barnes to also subject his 340 00:24:01,359 --> 00:24:05,840 Speaker 1: views and subject these statements to even the slightest bit 341 00:24:05,880 --> 00:24:09,760 Speaker 1: of scrutiny. Obviously, he's never going to get that in 342 00:24:09,840 --> 00:24:14,960 Speaker 1: the sycophantic Wisconsin news and political press. You are not 343 00:24:15,040 --> 00:24:19,400 Speaker 1: going to get Scott Bauer over at the Associated Press, 344 00:24:19,520 --> 00:24:25,600 Speaker 1: actually citing federal law, actually quoting the Constitution, and actually 345 00:24:25,680 --> 00:24:31,720 Speaker 1: dismantling every single thing these idiots say. Now, of course, 346 00:24:32,440 --> 00:24:36,159 Speaker 1: I'm just, as they constantly like to remind me, just 347 00:24:36,200 --> 00:24:41,240 Speaker 1: a talk show host, which means it should be easy work. 348 00:24:42,119 --> 00:24:46,840 Speaker 1: Francesco Hong has about the biggest mouth in this state. 349 00:24:47,800 --> 00:24:50,679 Speaker 1: She should have no trouble coming on my show in 350 00:24:50,720 --> 00:24:54,440 Speaker 1: a debate style format. She gets two minutes. I get 351 00:24:54,440 --> 00:24:57,320 Speaker 1: two minutes. She gets two minutes. I get two minutes. 352 00:24:57,640 --> 00:25:01,560 Speaker 1: I will afford the exact same thing to man Della Barnes. Again, 353 00:25:02,040 --> 00:25:06,520 Speaker 1: I am very easy to get a hold of. I 354 00:25:06,560 --> 00:25:11,720 Speaker 1: await their response to my challenge. And oh, by the way, 355 00:25:11,760 --> 00:25:16,320 Speaker 1: coming up next, I've got a surprising somebody who agrees 356 00:25:16,359 --> 00:25:22,000 Speaker 1: with me on immigration policy, somebody who Hang and Barnes 357 00:25:22,720 --> 00:25:28,600 Speaker 1: might admire. We'll get to that next. Rumors are swirling 358 00:25:28,960 --> 00:25:35,800 Speaker 1: of a potential ice operation launching in Wisconsin. Doctor Kristin Lyerly, 359 00:25:36,600 --> 00:25:40,880 Speaker 1: an alleged talk show host and liberal hack activist who 360 00:25:41,040 --> 00:25:44,840 Speaker 1: got absolutely shellacked in her run for Congress in the 361 00:25:44,840 --> 00:25:51,600 Speaker 1: Green Bay area last year, posted that the completely false 362 00:25:51,800 --> 00:25:54,840 Speaker 1: story that Ice had booked one hundred rooms at the 363 00:25:54,960 --> 00:25:59,760 Speaker 1: Downtown Hilton in Milwaukee. Ice has learned the hard way 364 00:26:00,040 --> 00:26:04,320 Speaker 1: in Minneapolis. They almost cannot book hotels. They have to 365 00:26:04,359 --> 00:26:10,280 Speaker 1: stay at nearby military bases or other federal installations, because 366 00:26:10,880 --> 00:26:13,760 Speaker 1: as soon as it's learned that they are at a hotel, 367 00:26:14,000 --> 00:26:17,840 Speaker 1: left wing activists are out there blowing their stupid rape 368 00:26:17,840 --> 00:26:21,360 Speaker 1: whistles and trying to keep them up or doing all 369 00:26:21,440 --> 00:26:25,320 Speaker 1: manner of things to interfere with them. I got this 370 00:26:25,520 --> 00:26:29,439 Speaker 1: text from a law enforcement source today. Amid all of 371 00:26:29,480 --> 00:26:33,639 Speaker 1: these rumors, my buddy is calling hotels all over the 372 00:26:33,680 --> 00:26:36,639 Speaker 1: Madison area to get the state slash government rate for 373 00:26:36,720 --> 00:26:40,080 Speaker 1: one night. He's headed there for a grand jury on 374 00:26:40,200 --> 00:26:43,720 Speaker 1: a child predator. They all hang up on him when 375 00:26:43,720 --> 00:26:46,959 Speaker 1: he asks for the government rate. I will admit I 376 00:26:47,080 --> 00:26:55,399 Speaker 1: was laughing, but that is terrible. It certainly is. I 377 00:26:55,560 --> 00:26:59,400 Speaker 1: actually tried this at two different hotels that I am 378 00:26:59,480 --> 00:27:05,240 Speaker 1: not going to name because I'm not looking to bust anybody. 379 00:27:05,920 --> 00:27:10,280 Speaker 1: But I said, hey, I'm looking for the law enforcement 380 00:27:10,480 --> 00:27:15,480 Speaker 1: rate for a hotel stay. And I called a couple 381 00:27:15,480 --> 00:27:19,280 Speaker 1: of hotels today and both said they could not give 382 00:27:19,320 --> 00:27:22,840 Speaker 1: me that separate rate. There was a third I called 383 00:27:23,280 --> 00:27:27,240 Speaker 1: that actually hung up on me. Now, I don't know. 384 00:27:28,400 --> 00:27:31,639 Speaker 1: I don't know since, look, folks, I'm not going to 385 00:27:31,680 --> 00:27:35,600 Speaker 1: people what's the hotel? Then what's the hotel? Well, I 386 00:27:35,600 --> 00:27:38,359 Speaker 1: don't feel comfortable giving that out because it's sort of entrapment, 387 00:27:38,480 --> 00:27:41,560 Speaker 1: Like I'm not actually a law enforcement agent. I was 388 00:27:41,600 --> 00:27:44,080 Speaker 1: just sort of trying to test this theory. Is this 389 00:27:44,200 --> 00:27:46,560 Speaker 1: actually happening? Sure enough, it is. 390 00:27:46,640 --> 00:27:46,800 Speaker 4: Now. 391 00:27:46,920 --> 00:27:51,560 Speaker 1: The special government rate is usually a lot lower, and 392 00:27:51,600 --> 00:27:55,160 Speaker 1: it usually involves multiple rooms, like, for instance, if there 393 00:27:55,359 --> 00:28:00,160 Speaker 1: is some sort of large law enforcement deployment or something 394 00:28:00,280 --> 00:28:04,800 Speaker 1: like that. And these are businesses, as my law enforcement 395 00:28:04,880 --> 00:28:08,760 Speaker 1: source pointed out at a subsequent text to me that look, 396 00:28:09,080 --> 00:28:12,399 Speaker 1: these are businesses that they have to make a living. 397 00:28:12,600 --> 00:28:17,520 Speaker 1: So he understands, but it does just sort of speak 398 00:28:17,600 --> 00:28:22,440 Speaker 1: to the animus that ICE agents face on a daily basis. 399 00:28:24,000 --> 00:28:29,360 Speaker 1: Back in twenty ten, then President Barack Obama said something 400 00:28:30,200 --> 00:28:33,800 Speaker 1: rather remarkable. To this day, I'm still not sure if 401 00:28:33,800 --> 00:28:37,840 Speaker 1: he actually meant it, or if his views have evolved 402 00:28:38,440 --> 00:28:42,480 Speaker 1: over time as the left has gotten far more insane 403 00:28:42,520 --> 00:28:48,240 Speaker 1: on the issue of immigration. But Obama actually dismissed the 404 00:28:48,360 --> 00:28:52,719 Speaker 1: idea that is now mainstream in left wing circles that 405 00:28:52,760 --> 00:28:55,440 Speaker 1: we should not have borders, we should not have any 406 00:28:55,480 --> 00:28:57,880 Speaker 1: sort of border enforcement, and that we should not have 407 00:28:58,240 --> 00:29:06,480 Speaker 1: deportations at all. He dismisses every single point that mainstream 408 00:29:06,560 --> 00:29:10,120 Speaker 1: Democrats are all making here in twenty twenty six, Or 409 00:29:10,120 --> 00:29:11,480 Speaker 1: are those in. 410 00:29:11,440 --> 00:29:17,840 Speaker 7: The immigrants rights community who have argued passionately that we 411 00:29:17,840 --> 00:29:21,320 Speaker 7: should simply provide those who are illegally with legal status, 412 00:29:22,040 --> 00:29:26,560 Speaker 7: or at least ignore the laws on the books and 413 00:29:26,600 --> 00:29:30,800 Speaker 7: put an end to deportation until we have better laws. 414 00:29:31,920 --> 00:29:35,280 Speaker 7: And often this argument is framed in moral terms. Why 415 00:29:35,360 --> 00:29:37,920 Speaker 7: should we punish people who are just trying to earn 416 00:29:38,000 --> 00:29:45,520 Speaker 7: a living. I recognize the sense of compassion that drives 417 00:29:45,520 --> 00:29:50,440 Speaker 7: this argument, but I believe such an indiscriminate approach would 418 00:29:50,440 --> 00:29:55,600 Speaker 7: be both unwise and unfair. It would suggest to those 419 00:29:56,040 --> 00:29:59,160 Speaker 7: thinking about coming here illegally that there will be no 420 00:29:59,240 --> 00:30:03,240 Speaker 7: repercussions for such a decision, and this could lead to 421 00:30:03,280 --> 00:30:10,240 Speaker 7: a surge in more illegal immigration. And it would also 422 00:30:10,320 --> 00:30:13,000 Speaker 7: ignore the millions of people around the world who are 423 00:30:13,000 --> 00:30:20,400 Speaker 7: waiting in line to come here legally. Ultimately, our nation, 424 00:30:21,240 --> 00:30:25,440 Speaker 7: like all nations, has the right and obligation to control 425 00:30:25,480 --> 00:30:32,560 Speaker 7: its borders and set laws for residency and citizenship, And 426 00:30:32,640 --> 00:30:36,560 Speaker 7: no matter how decent they are, no matter their reasons, 427 00:30:37,680 --> 00:30:41,040 Speaker 7: the eleven million who broke these laws should be held accountable. 428 00:30:41,560 --> 00:30:46,240 Speaker 1: Man, I never knew Barack Obada was such a Nazi. 429 00:30:48,440 --> 00:30:52,600 Speaker 1: I never would have guessed, never would have guessed what 430 00:30:52,560 --> 00:30:56,800 Speaker 1: we said that famous the black face of white supremacies? 431 00:30:57,080 --> 00:31:02,360 Speaker 1: Isn't that what they called Clarence Thomas at one point? Yeah? 432 00:31:02,400 --> 00:31:06,600 Speaker 1: How hateful? How awful is Barack Obama? Coming up throughout 433 00:31:06,680 --> 00:31:09,880 Speaker 1: the show. On today's edition of The Dan o'donald Show, 434 00:31:10,080 --> 00:31:13,959 Speaker 1: you think that's something? I have got half a dozen 435 00:31:14,160 --> 00:31:19,640 Speaker 1: more Democrats sounding even more right wing than Donald Trump 436 00:31:19,840 --> 00:31:24,880 Speaker 1: on the issue of illegal immigration. My, oh my, do 437 00:31:24,960 --> 00:31:29,800 Speaker 1: they sound different today? Coming up next, though, a truly chilling, 438 00:31:30,080 --> 00:31:34,400 Speaker 1: unhinged liberal of the day who is plotting to do 439 00:31:35,040 --> 00:31:40,280 Speaker 1: frankly incredibly evil things to ice agents. Trust me, you're 440 00:31:40,320 --> 00:31:42,080 Speaker 1: not gonna want to miss this. It's coming up in 441 00:31:42,160 --> 00:31:44,480 Speaker 1: just a couple of minutes here on the DAN o'donald show. 442 00:31:45,800 --> 00:31:49,400 Speaker 1: President Trump was just on the Will Caine Show at 443 00:31:49,440 --> 00:31:53,680 Speaker 1: a restaurant in Iowa. The President making the media rounds today. 444 00:31:53,760 --> 00:31:58,760 Speaker 1: He was on the Sid Rosenberg radio show on WABCWOOR 445 00:31:59,160 --> 00:32:02,680 Speaker 1: one of the big talks in New York. This morning. 446 00:32:03,000 --> 00:32:05,880 Speaker 1: The President is going to be giving a big economic 447 00:32:06,000 --> 00:32:09,200 Speaker 1: policy speech. It's also going to be part of the 448 00:32:09,200 --> 00:32:14,120 Speaker 1: administration's attempts to get people the truth about just how 449 00:32:14,600 --> 00:32:18,440 Speaker 1: well the economy has turned around, and a big reason 450 00:32:18,560 --> 00:32:23,680 Speaker 1: for that is actually immigration enforcement. We will get into 451 00:32:23,800 --> 00:32:26,880 Speaker 1: that coming up, hopefully in the four o'clock hour. We 452 00:32:26,960 --> 00:32:29,200 Speaker 1: may need to push it to the five o'clock hour 453 00:32:29,240 --> 00:32:32,400 Speaker 1: because we are going to try to dip into President 454 00:32:32,440 --> 00:32:35,480 Speaker 1: Trump's speech. We're not going to carry the entire thing. 455 00:32:35,680 --> 00:32:39,080 Speaker 1: We do have a responsibility to our advertisers to play 456 00:32:39,120 --> 00:32:42,120 Speaker 1: the commercials, and I'm fairly certain I would be tarred 457 00:32:42,160 --> 00:32:45,120 Speaker 1: and feathered by management the second I got off the 458 00:32:45,160 --> 00:32:49,600 Speaker 1: air if I didn't play the latest I Net spots. 459 00:32:50,240 --> 00:32:52,000 Speaker 1: Well what if? How about this? How about this? When 460 00:32:52,320 --> 00:32:57,080 Speaker 1: President Trump takes a breath, okay, hear me out. Hear 461 00:32:57,080 --> 00:32:59,720 Speaker 1: me out, President Trump, you know, and when there's an applause, 462 00:32:59,760 --> 00:33:03,320 Speaker 1: lab crowd is applauding. I just randomly go I at 463 00:33:03,320 --> 00:33:06,280 Speaker 1: dish web dot com and then it'll be like we're 464 00:33:06,320 --> 00:33:08,760 Speaker 1: actually playing the commercials. What do you think time out 465 00:33:08,760 --> 00:33:22,000 Speaker 1: a name the unhinged Liberal of the Day. Oh tough 466 00:33:22,120 --> 00:33:23,160 Speaker 1: is dangerous because. 467 00:33:22,960 --> 00:33:25,800 Speaker 4: He's evil America. 468 00:33:28,880 --> 00:33:31,240 Speaker 1: Now, most of the time when we do the unhinged 469 00:33:31,280 --> 00:33:35,160 Speaker 1: Liberal of the day, it's someone who's just like comically 470 00:33:35,480 --> 00:33:39,239 Speaker 1: stupid or saying something that is just so over the 471 00:33:39,240 --> 00:33:41,800 Speaker 1: top we can have some laughs about it. This one 472 00:33:42,000 --> 00:33:44,760 Speaker 1: is not one of those. Her name is Melinda. She 473 00:33:44,920 --> 00:33:51,160 Speaker 1: is a nurse at Virginia Commonwealth University Hospital, and well, 474 00:33:51,640 --> 00:33:56,000 Speaker 1: she is talking about doing some real dark stuff to 475 00:33:56,440 --> 00:33:59,600 Speaker 1: ice agents. First of all, she's calling on her fellow 476 00:33:59,680 --> 00:34:03,600 Speaker 1: nurse is to inject them with a chemical that will 477 00:34:03,640 --> 00:34:05,600 Speaker 1: temporarily paralyze them. 478 00:34:05,720 --> 00:34:10,640 Speaker 8: I thought of something good. Sabotage tactic, or at least 479 00:34:10,719 --> 00:34:14,759 Speaker 8: scare tactic. All the medical providers grab some syringes with 480 00:34:14,880 --> 00:34:20,040 Speaker 8: needles on the end, have them full of saline, sucks. 481 00:34:19,800 --> 00:34:24,360 Speaker 1: Them colin you know whatever. Whatever. That will probably be 482 00:34:24,400 --> 00:34:29,799 Speaker 1: a deterrent. Yeah, sux silid cooline or whatever she called it. 483 00:34:29,840 --> 00:34:34,640 Speaker 1: That is something that temporarily paralyzes someone.

But I'm telling you, folks, this 513 00:36:40,760 --> 00:36:45,120 Speaker 1: is this is evil. What that sort of thing is 514 00:36:45,120 --> 00:36:49,160 Speaker 1: is evil. The fact that this woman sat there and 515 00:36:49,280 --> 00:36:53,759 Speaker 1: thought of things and then broadcast it using her actual 516 00:36:53,880 --> 00:36:57,360 Speaker 1: name without a care in the world to who's that 517 00:36:57,480 --> 00:37:01,880 Speaker 1: because she thinks it's justified that you can poison an 518 00:37:02,040 --> 00:37:07,319 Speaker 1: ice agent with a chemical that will temporarily paralyze them. 519 00:37:07,400 --> 00:37:09,520 Speaker 1: And yes, it has been repeatedly found that if you 520 00:37:09,960 --> 00:37:13,040 Speaker 1: spike someone's food with x lax or something that you 521 00:37:13,120 --> 00:37:15,520 Speaker 1: think is just going to give them intestinal distress, it 522 00:37:15,560 --> 00:37:18,520 Speaker 1: can actually seriously hurt them. That can end up being 523 00:37:18,600 --> 00:37:23,600 Speaker 1: serious criminal charges. This is what we're dealing with, folks. 524 00:37:24,160 --> 00:37:28,840 Speaker 1: These are truly wicked people. Melinda rather obviously your unhinged 525 00:37:28,920 --> 00:37:32,839 Speaker 1: liberal of the day four o'clock hour starts now here 526 00:37:32,880 --> 00:37:35,680 Speaker 1: on the Dan O'donnald show. Coming up in it what 527 00:37:36,320 --> 00:37:42,760 Speaker 1: actually is behind all of the anti ice craziness. Why 528 00:37:42,920 --> 00:37:46,480 Speaker 1: is it that Democrats want as many illegal aliens in 529 00:37:46,520 --> 00:37:49,520 Speaker 1: this country as possible, including those who have committed truly 530 00:37:49,719 --> 00:37:53,879 Speaker 1: heinous crimes. Why are they fighting so hard for the 531 00:37:53,920 --> 00:37:56,880 Speaker 1: worst of the worst of the worst to stay in 532 00:37:56,920 --> 00:38:01,480 Speaker 1: American neighborhoods. Could it have something to do with brand 533 00:38:01,560 --> 00:38:06,880 Speaker 1: new census data that was just released today. Could it 534 00:38:07,000 --> 00:38:11,879 Speaker 1: have something to do with redistricting in twenty thirty one? 535 00:38:12,080 --> 00:38:15,719 Speaker 1: We will investigate. Coming up later this hour, we are 536 00:38:15,760 --> 00:38:19,719 Speaker 1: awaiting President Trump taking the stage any minute now.

All right, what do you want? 544 00:38:47,320 --> 00:38:50,360 Speaker 1: I'm gonna have a dealer's choice here. We unveiled a 545 00:38:50,440 --> 00:38:53,040 Speaker 1: new We unveiled a new segment on Fridays.

You can see 552 00:39:16,920 --> 00:39:20,760 Speaker 1: it if you're watching on the dan OCAM, A handwritten 553 00:39:21,760 --> 00:39:29,960 Speaker 1: loose leaf paper note about how I speak? Which one 554 00:39:29,960 --> 00:39:33,400 Speaker 1: do we want? I think I just answered my own question. 555 00:39:33,480 --> 00:39:37,600 Speaker 1: It is time now for the most intelligent response Dan 556 00:39:38,120 --> 00:39:49,000 Speaker 1: has gotten all day. This comes to us from a 557 00:39:49,040 --> 00:39:52,400 Speaker 1: man whose name is I kid you not, and I 558 00:39:52,440 --> 00:39:55,320 Speaker 1: only use his last name because it is so unique. 559 00:39:56,080 --> 00:40:06,239 Speaker 1: Norman Bleed in Rockford, Illino. He writes, again, handwritten on 560 00:40:06,400 --> 00:40:15,040 Speaker 1: loose leaf paper, January twenty first, twenty twenty six. Dear 561 00:40:15,360 --> 00:40:22,120 Speaker 1: mister O'Donnell, you mother bleeper, Let me me try to 562 00:40:22,280 --> 00:40:26,759 Speaker 1: be more specific. I've been vaguely familiar with you, your 563 00:40:26,880 --> 00:40:32,960 Speaker 1: morning show, and your style, which is to declaim rather 564 00:40:33,600 --> 00:40:38,760 Speaker 1: than to just speak. I don't know what declaim means, 565 00:40:38,760 --> 00:40:43,920 Speaker 1: but he goes on, not that I favor mutterers, mumblers 566 00:40:43,920 --> 00:40:48,200 Speaker 1: and radio announcers who speak fast and or under their breath. 567 00:40:48,840 --> 00:40:53,960 Speaker 1: You are articulate. I'll give you that, but you have 568 00:40:54,040 --> 00:40:59,759 Speaker 1: a very off putting I'm sorry, folks, I'm trying here. Hey, 569 00:40:59,800 --> 00:41:03,160 Speaker 1: it's it's tough to get through the cursor. You have 570 00:41:03,200 --> 00:41:07,520 Speaker 1: a very off putting way of speechifying with projection enough 571 00:41:07,800 --> 00:41:13,320 Speaker 1: to reach the back row without any amplification every single 572 00:41:13,520 --> 00:41:18,239 Speaker 1: thing you say. And just so where where he is 573 00:41:18,280 --> 00:41:22,960 Speaker 1: not just underlining the things that he wants to amplify, 574 00:41:22,960 --> 00:41:26,520 Speaker 1: he is also circling the words that he wants to emphasize, 575 00:41:27,080 --> 00:41:33,320 Speaker 1: like a stage actor, or like Lincoln giving his Gettysburg address, 576 00:41:33,400 --> 00:41:37,480 Speaker 1: but in this case not because he was a pompous ass, 577 00:41:38,080 --> 00:41:42,440 Speaker 1: but rather so he could be heard and understand by 578 00:41:42,480 --> 00:41:46,000 Speaker 1: as many as possible. Yes, he wrote, understand, not understood. 579 00:41:47,440 --> 00:41:51,960 Speaker 1: You put extra space between your every word and every 580 00:41:52,080 --> 00:41:58,080 Speaker 1: sentence just to be a dick. Sometimes, as a semi 581 00:41:58,160 --> 00:42:01,440 Speaker 1: regular listener to Vicky McKenna, I'd stick around for the 582 00:42:02,080 --> 00:42:07,000 Speaker 1: hour or so till reception goes bad and try to 583 00:42:07,080 --> 00:42:12,080 Speaker 1: listen to Mark Belling. What a pompous ass, Yet, yes, 584 00:42:12,760 --> 00:42:21,239 Speaker 1: I've gathered extensively successful go figure. He'd endlessly interrupt himself 585 00:42:21,600 --> 00:42:27,160 Speaker 1: from getting to his announced topic with digression after silly 586 00:42:27,600 --> 00:42:35,960 Speaker 1: after sillier digression. I always gave up. Now, lately I've 587 00:42:36,000 --> 00:42:39,120 Speaker 1: been giving you a try and a chance, with the 588 00:42:39,120 --> 00:42:43,040 Speaker 1: best of hopes and wishes for you.

Sincerely, 592 00:43:05,239 --> 00:43:11,000 Speaker 1: Norman bleed, Ladies and gentlemen.

I actually went to my fehysical mailbox, 604 00:44:01,680 --> 00:44:04,239 Speaker 1: which I usually don't get a whole lot of physical mail. 605 00:44:04,360 --> 00:44:06,479 Speaker 1: Sometimes I will get I do get a good number 606 00:44:06,520 --> 00:44:08,680 Speaker 1: of Christmas cards, and I love each and every one 607 00:44:08,719 --> 00:44:12,200 Speaker 1: of them. I actually display all of the Christmas cards 608 00:44:12,239 --> 00:44:15,200 Speaker 1: that I get from listeners on my desk. I do 609 00:44:15,280 --> 00:44:18,759 Speaker 1: appreciate all of them. I don't get a whole lot 610 00:44:18,800 --> 00:44:23,680 Speaker 1: of physical mail, but by god, I'm going to check 611 00:44:23,719 --> 00:44:26,719 Speaker 1: that mailbox every day because sometimes I get an absolute 612 00:44:26,800 --> 00:44:31,760 Speaker 1: banger like normous. I literally went during the four o'clock News, 613 00:44:32,400 --> 00:44:35,160 Speaker 1: opened it up and said, my goodness, I don't care 614 00:44:35,280 --> 00:44:40,239 Speaker 1: what else I have to do. I am absolutely going 615 00:44:40,320 --> 00:44:45,520 Speaker 1: to read that email. All right, let's get you the 616 00:44:45,840 --> 00:44:50,960 Speaker 1: daily Trump dates. We are preparing to hear from President Trump. 617 00:44:50,960 --> 00:44:54,080 Speaker 1: My guess is that he goes on probably sometime in 618 00:44:54,120 --> 00:44:56,760 Speaker 1: the next fifteen minutes, but right now, let's get a preview. 619 00:44:57,680 --> 00:45:00,480 Speaker 10: We're gonna win so much you may even get tired 620 00:45:00,520 --> 00:45:00,960 Speaker 10: of winning. 621 00:45:01,040 --> 00:45:04,120 Speaker 1: Trump just keeps winning. It is a win for the administration. 622 00:45:04,280 --> 00:45:07,440 Speaker 7: It's also a big win for the United States. 623 00:45:07,480 --> 00:45:10,080 Speaker 1: We have to keep winning. We have to win more. 624 00:45:10,400 --> 00:45:11,080 Speaker 4: We're gonna win. 625 00:45:11,160 --> 00:45:14,839 Speaker 1: Moore the President today tour day Machine. Shed then went 626 00:45:14,880 --> 00:45:17,400 Speaker 1: off to a restaurant to do the Will Caine Show. 627 00:45:17,560 --> 00:45:21,360 Speaker 1: He is going to make a big economic speech and 628 00:45:21,440 --> 00:45:24,400 Speaker 1: sort of rally the base says, he kicks off a 629 00:45:24,560 --> 00:45:28,759 Speaker 1: tour designed to help boost Republican fortunes ahead of the 630 00:45:28,760 --> 00:45:33,160 Speaker 1: twenty twenty six midterms. As bizarre as it may seem, 631 00:45:33,239 --> 00:45:37,200 Speaker 1: as nuts as the Democrat Party and the left is 632 00:45:37,280 --> 00:45:40,600 Speaker 1: acting in Minnesota, they are widely expected to win back 633 00:45:40,640 --> 00:45:44,160 Speaker 1: the House, if not the United States Senate, and then yes, 634 00:45:44,280 --> 00:45:49,800 Speaker 1: it would be impeachment after impeachment after impeachment. And despite 635 00:45:49,840 --> 00:45:53,160 Speaker 1: the fact that they are now all focused on Minneapolis 636 00:45:53,280 --> 00:45:56,839 Speaker 1: and focused on Ice, the main message is going to 637 00:45:56,840 --> 00:45:59,759 Speaker 1: be affordability. So President Trump is going to tailor his 638 00:46:00,200 --> 00:46:03,359 Speaker 1: marks to combating that coming up, and I think we're 639 00:46:03,400 --> 00:46:06,640 Speaker 1: going to do it. In the five o'clock hour, how 640 00:46:06,880 --> 00:46:11,560 Speaker 1: inflation went down because of President Trump's immigration enforcement. It 641 00:46:11,600 --> 00:46:15,600 Speaker 1: may seem counterintuitive, but there is ample evidence that one 642 00:46:15,640 --> 00:46:20,400 Speaker 1: of the biggest reductions in net migration in American history 643 00:46:20,480 --> 00:46:25,319 Speaker 1: has also coincided with prices going way down because we 644 00:46:25,360 --> 00:46:28,000 Speaker 1: are no longer paying nearly as much money at the 645 00:46:28,040 --> 00:46:32,480 Speaker 1: state and government local government level, especially to care for 646 00:46:32,840 --> 00:46:35,800 Speaker 1: tons of people who should not be here now. Earlier 647 00:46:35,840 --> 00:46:39,480 Speaker 1: today on Fox and Friends, First Lady Milania Trump called 648 00:46:39,520 --> 00:46:43,360 Speaker 1: for peace and unity in Minneapolis, Hi. 649 00:46:43,760 --> 00:46:47,800 Speaker 11: I'm calling for unity. I know my husband, the President, 650 00:46:48,320 --> 00:46:52,960 Speaker 11: had a great call yesterday with the governor and the 651 00:46:53,000 --> 00:46:58,319 Speaker 11: mayor and they're working together to make it peaceful and 652 00:46:59,040 --> 00:47:04,680 Speaker 11: withoutdry I'm against the violence. So if please, if you protest, 653 00:47:05,200 --> 00:47:09,440 Speaker 11: protest in peace, and we need to unify in these times. 654 00:47:10,120 --> 00:47:13,279 Speaker 1: Meanwhile, borders, our Tom Homan has been meeting all day 655 00:47:13,320 --> 00:47:17,520 Speaker 1: with officials in Minneapolis, including the mayor, Jacob Fry. There 656 00:47:17,600 --> 00:47:20,640 Speaker 1: is no sign that immigration enforcement is going to stop 657 00:47:20,719 --> 00:47:23,440 Speaker 1: or even slow down there, but it does seem as 658 00:47:23,480 --> 00:47:28,160 Speaker 1: though the President is looking to compromise at least somewhat 659 00:47:28,680 --> 00:47:32,280 Speaker 1: with the nutsos in Minnesota if he can get access 660 00:47:32,680 --> 00:47:36,120 Speaker 1: to the jails and he can get access to information 661 00:47:36,200 --> 00:47:40,320 Speaker 1: that will lead to the arrests of more dangerous violent criminals, 662 00:47:40,360 --> 00:47:45,440 Speaker 1: as well as the tens of thousands of Somali fraudsters 663 00:47:45,800 --> 00:47:48,560 Speaker 1: who have apparently set up shop and been defrauding the 664 00:47:48,560 --> 00:47:51,919 Speaker 1: government out of billions of dollars over the past several years. 665 00:47:52,000 --> 00:47:54,960 Speaker 1: He coming up in the five o'clock hour, we are 666 00:47:55,000 --> 00:47:57,520 Speaker 1: going to get to an exclusive story. Why is an 667 00:47:57,680 --> 00:48:03,920 Speaker 1: education association here? And with Johnson pledging solidarity with fake 668 00:48:04,200 --> 00:48:08,360 Speaker 1: Somali Daycares, it's almost like they didn't get the memo 669 00:48:08,480 --> 00:48:12,680 Speaker 1: that the daycare centers aren't real. It's hilarious and sad 670 00:48:12,719 --> 00:48:15,799 Speaker 1: at the same time. Dan O'Donnell's show exclusive coming up 671 00:48:15,840 --> 00:48:19,520 Speaker 1: in about an hour. This morning, President Trump signed an 672 00:48:19,520 --> 00:48:23,279 Speaker 1: executive order that will partially federalize the rebuilding in Los 673 00:48:23,320 --> 00:48:26,680 Speaker 1: Angeles following the devastating fires there last year. As the 674 00:48:26,719 --> 00:48:29,000 Speaker 1: White House put it in a tweet today, the order 675 00:48:29,040 --> 00:48:33,360 Speaker 1: will quote overcome Californias and Los Angeles' permitting failures that 676 00:48:33,400 --> 00:48:36,920 Speaker 1: have left families, businesses, and houses of worship unable to 677 00:48:36,960 --> 00:48:39,960 Speaker 1: rebuild a year after the devastating wildfires in the Pacific 678 00:48:40,000 --> 00:48:45,480 Speaker 1: Palisades and Eton Canyon areas. Ladies and gentlemen, that is 679 00:48:45,840 --> 00:48:50,200 Speaker 1: your daily Trump date. We will again touch on the 680 00:48:50,320 --> 00:48:55,759 Speaker 1: President's speech and dip into it as soon as he begins. Now, 681 00:48:55,800 --> 00:48:59,760 Speaker 1: why is it that Democrats are fighting so hard in Minnia? 682 00:48:59,760 --> 00:49:02,759 Speaker 1: Apple is said elsewhere across the country to keep as 683 00:49:02,880 --> 00:49:07,320 Speaker 1: many illegal aliens here as possible, regardless of what heinous 684 00:49:07,360 --> 00:49:10,880 Speaker 1: acts they may have committed. It could have something to 685 00:49:10,960 --> 00:49:17,719 Speaker 1: do with this. Democrats are projected to get absolutely shellacked 686 00:49:18,760 --> 00:49:22,960 Speaker 1: in redistricting following the twenty thirty census. According to new 687 00:49:23,040 --> 00:49:29,920 Speaker 1: figures out today. The twenty twenty five census population estimates 688 00:49:30,640 --> 00:49:34,960 Speaker 1: released this morning the American Redistricting Project, which is considered 689 00:49:35,000 --> 00:49:38,320 Speaker 1: one of the nation's foremost, if not the foremost, authority 690 00:49:38,760 --> 00:49:42,319 Speaker 1: on projecting how each census is going to go. For 691 00:49:42,400 --> 00:49:45,920 Speaker 1: those who don't quite understand, every ten years we do 692 00:49:46,040 --> 00:49:48,920 Speaker 1: a census. Yes, we want to know exactly who's in 693 00:49:48,960 --> 00:49:50,880 Speaker 1: this country, how many people, and that sort of thing, 694 00:49:50,920 --> 00:49:55,240 Speaker 1: but we also do so for the purposes of reapportioning 695 00:49:55,360 --> 00:50:00,200 Speaker 1: congressional and state legislative seats. The United States Senate, I 696 00:50:00,200 --> 00:50:04,239 Speaker 1: can't believe I need to explain this to liberals deliberately 697 00:50:04,480 --> 00:50:10,320 Speaker 1: has two representatives for each state that is designed specifically 698 00:50:10,800 --> 00:50:14,480 Speaker 1: so that larger states like California can't just dominate smaller 699 00:50:14,520 --> 00:50:18,840 Speaker 1: states like Wyoming. California is able to dominate Wyoming in 700 00:50:18,920 --> 00:50:22,799 Speaker 1: the House of Representatives, the lower body of both the 701 00:50:22,880 --> 00:50:31,200 Speaker 1: Congress and state legislatures is done by apportionment. This is 702 00:50:31,719 --> 00:50:34,840 Speaker 1: what's done by population, and in fact, I guess the 703 00:50:35,360 --> 00:50:38,959 Speaker 1: state Senate is also done by apportionment, but you sort 704 00:50:38,960 --> 00:50:44,399 Speaker 1: of get the idea. The idea here is that there 705 00:50:44,480 --> 00:50:50,680 Speaker 1: is proportional representation in the lower house after the census, 706 00:50:51,080 --> 00:50:55,520 Speaker 1: there is redistricting. States can gain congressional seats and they 707 00:50:55,520 --> 00:51:01,919 Speaker 1: can lose congressional seats. In addition, state legislatures can see 708 00:51:01,960 --> 00:51:07,600 Speaker 1: their populations move and districts can be eliminated, they can 709 00:51:07,640 --> 00:51:11,520 Speaker 1: be moved, they can be redrawn. Not only is this 710 00:51:11,600 --> 00:51:15,000 Speaker 1: a big deal for representation in the House, where there 711 00:51:15,000 --> 00:51:19,759 Speaker 1: are always four hundred and thirty five seats, it is 712 00:51:19,800 --> 00:51:25,080 Speaker 1: also a huge deal in presidential elections. Every state has 713 00:51:25,160 --> 00:51:29,680 Speaker 1: representation in the Electoral College equal to its congressional representation. 714 00:51:30,120 --> 00:51:33,160 Speaker 1: That means every state has two electoral votes for each 715 00:51:33,200 --> 00:51:36,600 Speaker 1: of its senators and at least one electoral vote for 716 00:51:36,719 --> 00:51:41,839 Speaker 1: its congressional representatives. For the longest time, California has had 717 00:51:41,880 --> 00:51:45,399 Speaker 1: by far the most electoral votes and congressional representatives. It's 718 00:51:45,440 --> 00:51:50,920 Speaker 1: been in the fifties now. However, the American Redistricting Project, 719 00:51:50,920 --> 00:51:54,680 Speaker 1: taking a look at census population estimates released this morning, 720 00:51:54,960 --> 00:51:58,920 Speaker 1: says California is once again, for a second straight census, 721 00:51:58,960 --> 00:52:03,279 Speaker 1: going to lose seat. It's going to lose four. So 722 00:52:03,560 --> 00:52:11,200 Speaker 1: too are Illinois, Minnesota, New York, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, 723 00:52:11,760 --> 00:52:15,920 Speaker 1: and Wisconsin. What do each one of those states have 724 00:52:16,000 --> 00:52:20,239 Speaker 1: in common every single one of them, that's right. They 725 00:52:20,480 --> 00:52:26,280 Speaker 1: all have Democrat governors. Every single one is a traditionally 726 00:52:26,440 --> 00:52:30,719 Speaker 1: democratic state, or at least it's more blue leaning than red. 727 00:52:30,760 --> 00:52:33,800 Speaker 1: Wisconsin is about as purple a state as it gets, 728 00:52:33,840 --> 00:52:37,000 Speaker 1: but for the past eight years we've had a Democrat governor. 729 00:52:38,480 --> 00:52:44,319 Speaker 1: California is about as liberal as it comes. Illinois, New York, Oregon, Minnesota, 730 00:52:44,920 --> 00:52:47,160 Speaker 1: those are about the most liberal states in the Union. 731 00:52:47,480 --> 00:52:51,719 Speaker 1: They are all going to lose seats now. Illinois, Minnesota, 732 00:52:52,000 --> 00:52:56,640 Speaker 1: New York, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, and Wisconsin account for 733 00:52:56,719 --> 00:53:01,680 Speaker 1: seven electoral votes. When you add that to California's, that's 734 00:53:01,719 --> 00:53:05,160 Speaker 1: a big number. Eleven electoral votes would all go to 735 00:53:05,480 --> 00:53:11,560 Speaker 1: and this is critical states with Republican governors, save for 736 00:53:11,640 --> 00:53:17,480 Speaker 1: one North Carolina that nonetheless typically does elect Republican governors. 737 00:53:17,520 --> 00:53:20,880 Speaker 1: All of the states that are projected to add seats 738 00:53:21,120 --> 00:53:26,880 Speaker 1: in the upcoming census are red states. Texas, according to 739 00:53:26,920 --> 00:53:31,799 Speaker 1: this redistricting project, is projected to get four seats, So 740 00:53:31,960 --> 00:53:34,960 Speaker 1: all of California's seats are going to go to Texas, 741 00:53:35,960 --> 00:53:39,000 Speaker 1: two seats are going to go to Florida, and one 742 00:53:39,120 --> 00:53:43,399 Speaker 1: each to Arizona, Georgia, Idaho, North Carolina, and Utah. I guess. 743 00:53:43,440 --> 00:53:50,120 Speaker 1: Arizona also has a Democrat governor, but is more red. 744 00:53:50,560 --> 00:53:53,680 Speaker 1: It went red in twenty twenty four than blue and 745 00:53:53,800 --> 00:53:58,000 Speaker 1: is considered to be increasingly Republican because of a whole 746 00:53:58,040 --> 00:54:03,560 Speaker 1: lot of retirements, just like Florida and Texas. Florida and 747 00:54:03,600 --> 00:54:07,280 Speaker 1: Texas incidentally are two of the reddest states in the country, 748 00:54:07,680 --> 00:54:11,319 Speaker 1: so too is Utah. Georgia is much redder than it 749 00:54:11,480 --> 00:54:14,400 Speaker 1: was in twenty twenty where President Trump didn't just lose, 750 00:54:14,719 --> 00:54:19,640 Speaker 1: but in special elections, so too did both Republican senators. 751 00:54:21,480 --> 00:54:26,800 Speaker 1: This is a massive deal. Not only will Democrats suffer 752 00:54:26,840 --> 00:54:30,480 Speaker 1: a huge blow in the House of Representatives, where Republicans 753 00:54:30,560 --> 00:54:34,880 Speaker 1: will be favored to win the House pretty much every 754 00:54:34,960 --> 00:54:38,719 Speaker 1: election in the twenty thirties, it is going to be 755 00:54:38,880 --> 00:54:43,040 Speaker 1: much easier for Republicans to win the presidency. In the 756 00:54:43,080 --> 00:54:47,160 Speaker 1: election of twenty thirty two, the first presidential election that 757 00:54:47,239 --> 00:54:51,440 Speaker 1: will be conducted after the redistricting of twenty thirty the 758 00:54:51,520 --> 00:54:55,799 Speaker 1: Republican candidate, whether that's incumbent President J. D. Vance or 759 00:54:55,880 --> 00:55:01,200 Speaker 1: whomever the incumbent president the president, the republic candidate can 760 00:55:01,280 --> 00:55:05,640 Speaker 1: win the White House without needing to win Wisconsin, Michigan, 761 00:55:06,239 --> 00:55:12,120 Speaker 1: or Pennsylvania. In other words, they can win the White 762 00:55:12,200 --> 00:55:15,640 Speaker 1: House by winning the states all of the states that 763 00:55:15,800 --> 00:55:19,840 Speaker 1: are almost invariably going to go red barring something just 764 00:55:19,960 --> 00:55:26,799 Speaker 1: completely unexpected, plus North Carolina, which again will have an 765 00:55:26,840 --> 00:55:32,760 Speaker 1: additional electoral vote. Georgia also will have an electoral vote 766 00:55:32,800 --> 00:55:37,840 Speaker 1: in addition to the ones that already has an Arizona. 767 00:55:38,000 --> 00:55:42,200 Speaker 1: Republicans will only need to win the Sun Belt keep Florida, 768 00:55:42,320 --> 00:55:45,160 Speaker 1: and Florida has gone from the ultimate swing state to 769 00:55:45,360 --> 00:55:50,000 Speaker 1: being about as red as red gets. Texas and all 770 00:55:50,080 --> 00:55:53,439 Speaker 1: of the states that are pretty much locks for Republicans. 771 00:55:54,000 --> 00:55:58,480 Speaker 1: That's it. The map will get much much harder for 772 00:55:58,600 --> 00:56:03,200 Speaker 1: Democrats to win the presidents. Now, why exactly is that 773 00:56:03,440 --> 00:56:05,680 Speaker 1: such a big deal? We will dive into that, and 774 00:56:05,880 --> 00:56:11,080 Speaker 1: here from President Trump, who is starting his speech in Iowa. 775 00:56:11,160 --> 00:56:13,560 Speaker 1: We will get to him as soon as this commercial 776 00:56:13,600 --> 00:56:16,200 Speaker 1: break is over it we'll be back in three minutes. 777 00:56:16,239 --> 00:56:22,719 Speaker 1: Don't go anywhere now speaking in Iowa, let's go to 778 00:56:22,920 --> 00:56:26,319 Speaker 1: the President live right here on the Dan O'Donnell's show. 779 00:56:26,440 --> 00:56:27,279 Speaker 4: I think it was in the. 780 00:56:27,320 --> 00:56:30,800 Speaker 10: History a mass invasion of our border in our country 781 00:56:30,920 --> 00:56:32,839 Speaker 10: was being left at all over the where we were 782 00:56:32,880 --> 00:56:33,480 Speaker 10: being left at. 783 00:56:33,520 --> 00:56:34,240 Speaker 4: We were a joke. 784 00:56:34,920 --> 00:56:46,120 Speaker 12: If it not a joke anymore, We're not a joke. 785 00:56:46,200 --> 00:56:47,880 Speaker 12: We're not being left at anymore. 786 00:56:48,880 --> 00:56:52,239 Speaker 10: But today, just after one year of President Trump, our 787 00:56:52,280 --> 00:56:56,680 Speaker 10: economy is booming, incomes arising, investment is souring, inflation has 788 00:56:56,719 --> 00:57:06,040 Speaker 10: been defeated, our border is closed totally, and America is 789 00:57:06,120 --> 00:57:09,759 Speaker 10: respected all over the world like they've never been respected. 790 00:57:09,800 --> 00:57:10,160 Speaker 4: One year. 791 00:57:10,160 --> 00:57:12,759 Speaker 10: I thought it would take us two years. I guess 792 00:57:12,800 --> 00:57:15,080 Speaker 10: I'm following in the great path of John Deere. We 793 00:57:15,200 --> 00:57:17,680 Speaker 10: got the chairman of John Deere here chairman and seeing, Yeah, 794 00:57:17,680 --> 00:57:23,280 Speaker 10: that's pretty good. I even signed a John Deere hat 795 00:57:23,320 --> 00:57:25,280 Speaker 10: for me, said I'm going to put this in the museum. 796 00:57:25,360 --> 00:57:29,160 Speaker 10: I said, that's good. Now, it's a great company. Great company. 797 00:57:29,200 --> 00:57:31,640 Speaker 10: And you just said you're opening up two massive plants 798 00:57:31,640 --> 00:57:35,720 Speaker 10: because of tariffs. You're opening up one in North Carolina, 799 00:57:35,840 --> 00:57:41,000 Speaker 10: one someplace else, and you're expanding all over the place. 800 00:57:41,040 --> 00:57:43,120 Speaker 10: You're doing a great job. And I bought a lot 801 00:57:43,160 --> 00:57:43,800 Speaker 10: of John Deere. 802 00:57:43,880 --> 00:57:46,240 Speaker 12: So I bought a lot of John Deere. 803 00:57:46,280 --> 00:57:48,200 Speaker 10: It's a great company. It's an honor to have you. 804 00:57:48,240 --> 00:57:52,040 Speaker 10: Thank you very much. This has been the most dramatic 805 00:57:52,080 --> 00:57:54,920 Speaker 10: one year turnaround of any country in history in terms 806 00:57:54,920 --> 00:57:56,680 Speaker 10: of the speed. I really thought it would take us 807 00:57:56,680 --> 00:57:58,760 Speaker 10: two or three years to do what we're doing.

We don't make them here. 911 01:03:27,000 --> 01:03:30,720 Speaker 10: This is going to be the only excavator entirely made 912 01:03:30,800 --> 01:03:32,800 Speaker 10: in the United States of America. 913 01:03:33,160 --> 01:03:36,120 Speaker 4: So that's that's great.

You hire a million people, 934 01:04:36,520 --> 01:04:38,040 Speaker 10: all of a sudden, you're down to three and a 935 01:04:38,080 --> 01:04:38,640 Speaker 10: half percent. 936 01:04:39,080 --> 01:04:42,120 Speaker 4: We don't do that.

And they hated me. They 940 01:04:50,080 --> 01:04:51,640 Speaker 4: hated me. Now they love me. You know what. 941 01:04:52,240 --> 01:04:55,200 Speaker 10: They all got jobs in the private sector, making twice 942 01:04:55,240 --> 01:04:57,560 Speaker 10: as much money as they made from the federal government, 943 01:04:57,600 --> 01:05:00,480 Speaker 10: sometimes much more than the So. 944 01:05:00,520 --> 01:05:02,720 Speaker 12: A year ago, they hated me, and now they loved me. 945 01:05:04,080 --> 01:05:07,280 Speaker 1: But I'm still not sure about that. That is President 946 01:05:07,320 --> 01:05:11,160 Speaker 1: Trump talking in Iowa. He's sort of reciting some of 947 01:05:11,200 --> 01:05:14,520 Speaker 1: the greatest hits here. And folks, we do oh, looks 948 01:05:14,520 --> 01:05:18,880 Speaker 1: like we just did. Fox just lose the feed, all right? 949 01:05:18,920 --> 01:05:20,920 Speaker 1: The Fox says the feedback.

Unfortunately, 951 01:05:24,400 --> 01:05:28,400 Speaker 1: we do still have to play the commercials. Don't worry, 952 01:05:28,400 --> 01:05:31,840 Speaker 1: don't worry. We'll get back to it. Also, why is 953 01:05:31,920 --> 01:05:36,320 Speaker 1: it that Democrats are so concerned about this census, so 954 01:05:36,480 --> 01:05:40,160 Speaker 1: much so that they imported nearly ten million new people 955 01:05:40,200 --> 01:05:43,120 Speaker 1: into this country to try to combat its effects. We'll 956 01:05:43,120 --> 01:05:45,240 Speaker 1: get to that and more when The Dan o'donald Show 957 01:05:45,240 --> 01:05:49,520 Speaker 1: returns in just a second.

Fox News has dumped away from President Trump's speech. 959 01:05:53,520 --> 01:05:56,240 Speaker 1: It's pretty much a campaign speech. They were saying there 960 01:05:56,280 --> 01:05:58,560 Speaker 1: was going to be some serious economic policy in there. 961 01:05:58,600 --> 01:06:01,880 Speaker 1: I guess the announcement that John Deere was investing seventy 962 01:06:01,880 --> 01:06:06,439 Speaker 1: million dollars in a new American plant bringing production back 963 01:06:06,480 --> 01:06:10,880 Speaker 1: home was the policy. But it's primarily him just rallying 964 01:06:10,920 --> 01:06:15,040 Speaker 1: the base about the economy ahead of twenty twenty six. 965 01:06:15,080 --> 01:06:17,880 Speaker 1: Here in twenty twenty six, it's actually kind of remarkable 966 01:06:18,320 --> 01:06:22,520 Speaker 1: how different Democrats sound than they did just a couple 967 01:06:22,520 --> 01:06:24,640 Speaker 1: of years ago. And when I say just a couple 968 01:06:24,640 --> 01:06:29,160 Speaker 1: of years ago, I mean like eleven years ago. Hillary Clinton, 969 01:06:29,200 --> 01:06:33,440 Speaker 1: while running for president in twenty fifteen, was asked on 970 01:06:33,720 --> 01:06:39,920 Speaker 1: CNN about sanctuary cities just like Minneapolis, and sounded a 971 01:06:40,040 --> 01:06:43,600 Speaker 1: whole lot different than Democrats do today. 972 01:06:44,160 --> 01:06:48,320 Speaker 13: Last week, an undocumented immigrant who had been deported five 973 01:06:48,400 --> 01:06:52,480 Speaker 13: times killed a thirty two year old woman, Kate Steinley, 974 01:06:52,480 --> 01:06:55,960 Speaker 13: and San Francisco sanctuary city where local law enforcement does 975 01:06:56,000 --> 01:07:00,360 Speaker 13: not enforce federal immigration laws. When you last ran for president, 976 01:07:00,440 --> 01:07:04,400 Speaker 13: you supported sanctuary cities. In light of this terrible incident, 977 01:07:04,680 --> 01:07:07,360 Speaker 13: does that change anything about your view on this? 978 01:07:07,880 --> 01:07:11,600 Speaker 14: Well, what should be done is any city should listen 979 01:07:11,680 --> 01:07:14,680 Speaker 14: to the Department of Homeland Security, which, as I understand, 980 01:07:14,720 --> 01:07:18,120 Speaker 14: it urged them to deport this man again after he 981 01:07:18,200 --> 01:07:22,360 Speaker 14: got out of prison another time. Here's a case where 982 01:07:22,400 --> 01:07:25,360 Speaker 14: we've deported, we've deported, we've deported, he ends back up 983 01:07:26,120 --> 01:07:30,160 Speaker 14: in our country, and I think the city made a mistake. 984 01:07:30,280 --> 01:07:33,800 Speaker 14: The city made a mistake not to deport someone that 985 01:07:33,840 --> 01:07:36,720 Speaker 14: the federal government strongly felt should be deported. So I 986 01:07:36,760 --> 01:07:43,920 Speaker 14: have absolutely no support for a city that ignores the 987 01:07:43,960 --> 01:07:47,760 Speaker 14: strong evidence that should be acted on now. 988 01:07:47,800 --> 01:07:50,680 Speaker 1: Of course, Hillary Clinton has taken an x to post 989 01:07:50,720 --> 01:07:56,000 Speaker 1: a Maudlin voice of support for Minneapolis the exact same 990 01:07:56,040 --> 01:08:00,080 Speaker 1: sort of city that is refusing to cooperate with federal agents, 991 01:08:00,120 --> 01:08:03,680 Speaker 1: with the federal government who strongly believes that a certain 992 01:08:04,200 --> 01:08:08,200 Speaker 1: set of people, I mean President Trump, the Press secretary 993 01:08:08,200 --> 01:08:11,800 Speaker 1: of Caroline Levett. They're holding up their mugshots. For goodness sakes. 994 01:08:12,560 --> 01:08:16,639 Speaker 1: This wasn't thirty years ago. This was eleven years ago. 995 01:08:17,479 --> 01:08:21,000 Speaker 1: Every single Democrat was at least pretending to be tough 996 01:08:21,040 --> 01:08:23,320 Speaker 1: on immigration. We'll have some more of those sound bites. 997 01:08:23,360 --> 01:08:28,240 Speaker 1: Chuck Schumer, Nancy Pelosi, Hillary's husband Bill, all of them 998 01:08:28,280 --> 01:08:32,240 Speaker 1: now Democrats, though, I think realized that there is an 999 01:08:32,240 --> 01:08:36,240 Speaker 1: impending doom coming in the twenty thirty census. We just 1000 01:08:36,320 --> 01:08:40,000 Speaker 1: had population estimates for the year twenty twenty five by 1001 01:08:40,040 --> 01:08:44,320 Speaker 1: the Census Bureau released this morning. As a result of that, 1002 01:08:44,360 --> 01:08:49,240 Speaker 1: the American Redistricting Project now projects that Texas and Florida 1003 01:08:49,720 --> 01:08:53,599 Speaker 1: are projected to gain six seats and six electoral votes, 1004 01:08:53,600 --> 01:08:57,719 Speaker 1: four for Texas, two for Florida, and one each for Arizona, Georgia, Idaho, 1005 01:08:58,200 --> 01:09:02,839 Speaker 1: North Carolina, and all of those are Republican leaning states. 1006 01:09:02,840 --> 01:09:07,080 Speaker 1: In Texas and Florida are arguably the two most Republican 1007 01:09:07,120 --> 01:09:10,880 Speaker 1: states in the entire country. Where are those seats. Where 1008 01:09:10,880 --> 01:09:13,519 Speaker 1: are those electoral votes coming from. They're being taken away, 1009 01:09:13,680 --> 01:09:19,280 Speaker 1: four from California and one each from Illinois, Minnesota, New York, Oregon, Pennsylvania, 1010 01:09:19,360 --> 01:09:26,240 Speaker 1: Rhode Island, and Wisconsin. Democrats understand that they need people 1011 01:09:26,520 --> 01:09:30,240 Speaker 1: in their states. The problem their policies are so terrible 1012 01:09:30,640 --> 01:09:33,880 Speaker 1: that people have been voting with their feet for years 1013 01:09:33,920 --> 01:09:38,400 Speaker 1: now and fleeing Democrat states for the warmer pastors and 1014 01:09:38,439 --> 01:09:42,960 Speaker 1: greener pastures of Republican states. It's no coincidence that every 1015 01:09:43,120 --> 01:09:47,240 Speaker 1: single one of the states that's losing a congressional representative 1016 01:09:47,320 --> 01:09:51,200 Speaker 1: and losing an electoral vote in twenty thirty is governed 1017 01:09:51,240 --> 01:09:54,439 Speaker 1: by a Democrat. And the state that's losing the most, 1018 01:09:54,560 --> 01:09:58,360 Speaker 1: meaning it's losing the most people, is California. How have 1019 01:09:58,439 --> 01:10:01,280 Speaker 1: they been trying to combat that by by literally importing 1020 01:10:01,360 --> 01:10:07,040 Speaker 1: people from the Third World. Illegal aliens are counted for 1021 01:10:07,160 --> 01:10:11,559 Speaker 1: the purposes of the census. Not only that, even when 1022 01:10:11,560 --> 01:10:14,599 Speaker 1: they don't actually answer the door for a census taker, 1023 01:10:14,640 --> 01:10:18,240 Speaker 1: there are reasonable estimates. There are actually calculations made to 1024 01:10:18,320 --> 01:10:21,360 Speaker 1: try to guess the number of illegals who are in 1025 01:10:21,400 --> 01:10:24,960 Speaker 1: a given state, So it behooves Democrats even if a 1026 01:10:25,120 --> 01:10:28,479 Speaker 1: single illegal even if not one of them ever casts 1027 01:10:28,600 --> 01:10:32,040 Speaker 1: a ballot in any election. We know that they actually do, 1028 01:10:32,400 --> 01:10:34,799 Speaker 1: but let's assume for the sake of arguments that they don't. 1029 01:10:35,160 --> 01:10:40,800 Speaker 1: Democrats still gain by virtue of having massive populations of illegals. 1030 01:10:40,840 --> 01:10:44,879 Speaker 1: Here's the thing, though it is very obvious, the framers 1031 01:10:44,920 --> 01:10:51,120 Speaker 1: of the Constitution never intended for non citizens to vote. 1032 01:10:51,160 --> 01:10:55,920 Speaker 1: The apportionment clause is Article one, Section two, Clause three 1033 01:10:56,520 --> 01:11:02,040 Speaker 1: of the Constitution. It reads, and I quote, Representatives and 1034 01:11:02,240 --> 01:11:07,320 Speaker 1: direct taxes shall be apportioned among the several states which 1035 01:11:07,360 --> 01:11:11,599 Speaker 1: may be included within this Union, according to their respective numbers, 1036 01:11:12,240 --> 01:11:16,280 Speaker 1: which shall be determined by adding to the whole number 1037 01:11:16,360 --> 01:11:20,240 Speaker 1: of free persons, including those bound to service for a 1038 01:11:20,320 --> 01:11:25,320 Speaker 1: term of years, and excluding Indians not taxed, three fifths 1039 01:11:25,320 --> 01:11:29,600 Speaker 1: of all other persons. That's known as the three fifths compromise, 1040 01:11:30,120 --> 01:11:33,120 Speaker 1: where slaves were counted as three fifths of a person. 1041 01:11:33,439 --> 01:11:39,320 Speaker 1: There's a clear intent both there and in the Fourteenth Amendments, 1042 01:11:39,360 --> 01:11:44,720 Speaker 1: Section two apportionment of representation clause in the wake of 1043 01:11:44,760 --> 01:11:48,439 Speaker 1: the Civil War, there was a clear intent to count 1044 01:11:48,680 --> 01:11:52,360 Speaker 1: only those persons who are considered to be citizens of 1045 01:11:52,400 --> 01:11:56,599 Speaker 1: the United States. Indians not taxed they are living in 1046 01:11:56,760 --> 01:12:01,559 Speaker 1: the state, right, They are not saying American taxes. They 1047 01:12:01,560 --> 01:12:06,240 Speaker 1: are not considered to be people for the purposes of 1048 01:12:06,680 --> 01:12:09,559 Speaker 1: census taking. They are not considered to be I shouldn't 1049 01:12:09,560 --> 01:12:12,120 Speaker 1: say they're not considered to be people. Obviously they're people, 1050 01:12:12,160 --> 01:12:15,360 Speaker 1: but they're not considered to be citizens for the purposes 1051 01:12:15,400 --> 01:12:18,559 Speaker 1: of congressional apportionment. The fact that they were willing to 1052 01:12:18,920 --> 01:12:22,280 Speaker 1: monkey with the percentage of slaves that they were going 1053 01:12:22,680 --> 01:12:25,400 Speaker 1: to count, and by the way, that is the most 1054 01:12:26,160 --> 01:12:31,400 Speaker 1: misinterpreted and misunderstood portion of the Constitution was not racist. 1055 01:12:31,920 --> 01:12:34,640 Speaker 1: In fact, it was designed to combat the power of 1056 01:12:34,680 --> 01:12:39,680 Speaker 1: the slaveholding Democrat states and ultimately get rid of slavery, 1057 01:12:39,760 --> 01:12:43,800 Speaker 1: because if you counted slaves as full people, the slaveholding 1058 01:12:43,880 --> 01:12:49,320 Speaker 1: South would just dominate the abolitionist North. In the fourteenth 1059 01:12:49,360 --> 01:12:55,840 Speaker 1: Amendment two, you are also hearing language that indicates that 1060 01:12:55,920 --> 01:13:01,160 Speaker 1: the framers of that amendment only indicated and ownly intended 1061 01:13:02,000 --> 01:13:06,760 Speaker 1: those who are actually citizens of the state of the 1062 01:13:07,120 --> 01:13:14,720 Speaker 1: country to be counted. Okay, what we are hearing in 1063 01:13:14,800 --> 01:13:18,040 Speaker 1: this is but when the right to vote at any 1064 01:13:18,040 --> 01:13:20,320 Speaker 1: election for the choice of electors for president and vice 1065 01:13:20,320 --> 01:13:22,680 Speaker 1: by blah blah blah, blah blah, bah bah bah bah 1066 01:13:23,080 --> 01:13:25,639 Speaker 1: is denied to any of the male inhabitants of such 1067 01:13:25,680 --> 01:13:28,120 Speaker 1: state being twenty one years of age and citizens of 1068 01:13:28,160 --> 01:13:30,479 Speaker 1: the United States, or in any way abridged except for 1069 01:13:30,520 --> 01:13:34,320 Speaker 1: participation in rebellion or other crime. The basis of representation 1070 01:13:34,439 --> 01:13:39,080 Speaker 1: therein shall be reduced to the proportion which the number 1071 01:13:39,080 --> 01:13:42,200 Speaker 1: of such male citizens shall bear to the whole number 1072 01:13:42,200 --> 01:13:47,400 Speaker 1: of male citizens twenty one years of age in such state. Again, 1073 01:13:48,360 --> 01:13:54,720 Speaker 1: proportionality and citizenship and apportionment. Census taking for the purposes 1074 01:13:54,760 --> 01:14:00,240 Speaker 1: of apportionment is malleable. The intent there is Back then 1075 01:14:00,560 --> 01:14:03,040 Speaker 1: it was only male citizens twenty one years and old 1076 01:14:03,040 --> 01:14:05,920 Speaker 1: are those who are eligible to vote? Again, you're hearing 1077 01:14:05,960 --> 01:14:10,000 Speaker 1: for the purposes of apportionment. Well, maybe if the right 1078 01:14:10,040 --> 01:14:12,880 Speaker 1: to vote is being abridged, we can change this. The 1079 01:14:13,040 --> 01:14:17,480 Speaker 1: idea is always and has always been, that you count citizens. 1080 01:14:17,520 --> 01:14:17,720 Speaker 4: Now. 1081 01:14:18,040 --> 01:14:25,080 Speaker 1: The latest court case in twenty sixteen, even while the Abbot, 1082 01:14:25,120 --> 01:14:29,240 Speaker 1: the Supreme Court held that states may use total population, 1083 01:14:29,320 --> 01:14:34,160 Speaker 1: that is, all people legal and illegal when apportioning state 1084 01:14:34,680 --> 01:14:40,000 Speaker 1: legislative districts, and doing so doesn't violate the equal protection clause. 1085 01:14:40,320 --> 01:14:44,400 Speaker 1: But the court deliberately left open whether a state could 1086 01:14:44,880 --> 01:14:49,320 Speaker 1: choose to base apportionment on any other measures, like people 1087 01:14:49,360 --> 01:14:53,639 Speaker 1: who are of voting age, citizens, registered voters. The Court 1088 01:14:53,800 --> 01:14:59,760 Speaker 1: explicitly declined to resolve whether those alternatives would be constitutionally permissible. 1089 01:15:00,120 --> 01:15:04,320 Speaker 1: In fact, it is my very strong suspicion that we 1090 01:15:04,520 --> 01:15:10,120 Speaker 1: can actually change congressional apportionment to citizenship, that you are 1091 01:15:10,200 --> 01:15:14,720 Speaker 1: only counting American citizens, which President Trump wanted to do, 1092 01:15:14,800 --> 01:15:17,760 Speaker 1: and in fact, it is very likely he could by 1093 01:15:17,840 --> 01:15:20,960 Speaker 1: executive order, simply order Now this would of course be 1094 01:15:21,120 --> 01:15:23,560 Speaker 1: the next president. It would not be President Trump, it 1095 01:15:23,600 --> 01:15:27,720 Speaker 1: would have to be President jd. Vance could explicitly order, 1096 01:15:27,920 --> 01:15:30,920 Speaker 1: just by executive fiat, say the Census Bureau, you are 1097 01:15:30,960 --> 01:15:34,080 Speaker 1: only to count American citizens. Have it go all the 1098 01:15:34,080 --> 01:15:36,080 Speaker 1: way up to the Supreme Court, and the Supreme Court 1099 01:15:36,280 --> 01:15:39,720 Speaker 1: could very well find that the language of both the 1100 01:15:39,760 --> 01:15:44,320 Speaker 1: apportionment's clause in the Constitution and the fourteenth Amendment both 1101 01:15:44,479 --> 01:15:50,280 Speaker 1: allow for the possibility of citizen only congressional apportionment.

It's sort of like the radio 1151 01:18:58,320 --> 01:19:02,040 Speaker 1: version of NFL Red Zone. And I listen to that 1152 01:19:02,080 --> 01:19:04,559 Speaker 1: while I'm doing yard work. And I'm sure you needed 1153 01:19:04,600 --> 01:19:12,120 Speaker 1: to know that, all right. We Can is not just 1154 01:19:12,200 --> 01:19:16,400 Speaker 1: a motivational phrase. It is also the acronym of the 1155 01:19:16,640 --> 01:19:21,880 Speaker 1: Wisconsin Education Career Access Network. It was started in two 1156 01:19:21,920 --> 01:19:26,040 Speaker 1: thousand and one to help educators search for teaching jobs 1157 01:19:26,560 --> 01:19:32,960 Speaker 1: across Wisconsin and to streamline applicants as well as open jobs. 1158 01:19:33,040 --> 01:19:36,519 Speaker 1: So basically, if you're an educator or if you're an 1159 01:19:36,680 --> 01:19:40,640 Speaker 1: educational institution, you go on this we can network and 1160 01:19:40,760 --> 01:19:46,280 Speaker 1: you find a job. Would you believe that not only 1161 01:19:46,520 --> 01:19:51,760 Speaker 1: are the libs who run the we CAN network standing 1162 01:19:51,800 --> 01:19:58,640 Speaker 1: with Minneapolis, they are actually standing with the literal fraudulent 1163 01:19:59,160 --> 01:20:04,800 Speaker 1: daycare set. I wish I was kidding. This email went 1164 01:20:04,840 --> 01:20:10,240 Speaker 1: out from Coreen with we can Ways to support communities 1165 01:20:10,240 --> 01:20:12,880 Speaker 1: in Minnesota. This is Koreen and I have been in 1166 01:20:13,000 --> 01:20:18,600 Speaker 1: personal contact with small business owners and childcare educators in 1167 01:20:18,720 --> 01:20:23,440 Speaker 1: Wisconsin asking how we in Wisconsin can best support them. 1168 01:20:24,000 --> 01:20:28,200 Speaker 1: Their response was, because of the USDA's decision to cut 1169 01:20:28,280 --> 01:20:35,240 Speaker 1: funding to the food pantry statewide network, it could use donations. Second, 1170 01:20:35,640 --> 01:20:38,360 Speaker 1: the Immigrant Defense Fund is working hard on behalf of 1171 01:20:38,400 --> 01:20:42,080 Speaker 1: those in Minnesota's rights are being denied. Immigrant Defense Network. 1172 01:20:42,360 --> 01:20:45,240 Speaker 1: Here is other information with several options to ask for 1173 01:20:45,680 --> 01:20:49,520 Speaker 1: and give help that I received from another leader in Minnesota. 1174 01:20:49,600 --> 01:20:54,000 Speaker 1: Here is an article that outlines numerous ways to support 1175 01:20:54,040 --> 01:21:01,360 Speaker 1: immigrant communities in the Twin Cities. They are also urging 1176 01:21:01,400 --> 01:21:05,400 Speaker 1: you to call your Senator Tammy Baldwin and tell her 1177 01:21:05,560 --> 01:21:10,719 Speaker 1: not to oppose the funding of ICE. She is also 1178 01:21:10,840 --> 01:21:12,960 Speaker 1: telling you at the county and local level, meet with 1179 01:21:13,040 --> 01:21:16,800 Speaker 1: sheriffs and local police chefs and asks how they or 1180 01:21:16,880 --> 01:21:19,600 Speaker 1: if they cooperate with ICE. Meet with candidates running for 1181 01:21:19,720 --> 01:21:25,639 Speaker 1: sheriff as well and ask them. They are also encouraging 1182 01:21:25,760 --> 01:21:28,679 Speaker 1: educators to sign a petition calling on Congress to stop 1183 01:21:28,760 --> 01:21:33,280 Speaker 1: raids and workplace surveillance that disrupt local business. Require real 1184 01:21:33,360 --> 01:21:37,000 Speaker 1: oversight and accountability for DHS and ICE. Protect workers, customers, 1185 01:21:37,000 --> 01:21:40,480 Speaker 1: and business districts from enforcement. Bah bah blah, blah blah. 1186 01:21:40,640 --> 01:21:43,559 Speaker 1: The big thing that stood out to me is that 1187 01:21:44,120 --> 01:21:50,080 Speaker 1: she is looking to support the fraudulent daycare centers, the 1188 01:21:50,280 --> 01:21:55,200 Speaker 1: childcare educators, asking how we can help here in Wisconsin. 1189 01:21:55,280 --> 01:22:00,559 Speaker 1: I just found that absolutely hysterical, since early child has 1190 01:22:00,640 --> 01:22:06,440 Speaker 1: been a massive source of fraud. And it's not just childcare, 1191 01:22:07,640 --> 01:22:11,880 Speaker 1: and it's not just Somali daycare operators. It is in 1192 01:22:11,920 --> 01:22:18,639 Speaker 1: fact also almost certainly the Somali congresswoman who represents the 1193 01:22:18,760 --> 01:22:25,280 Speaker 1: Minneapolis area, elon Omar Benny Johnson, who is a conservative 1194 01:22:25,320 --> 01:22:28,840 Speaker 1: talk show host. He does not terrestrial radio, but he 1195 01:22:28,880 --> 01:22:33,680 Speaker 1: does a webcast. He does a really nice guy. I 1196 01:22:33,720 --> 01:22:36,439 Speaker 1: met him where else at the RNC in the summer 1197 01:22:36,479 --> 01:22:41,000 Speaker 1: of twenty twenty four and really good dude. I told 1198 01:22:41,080 --> 01:22:43,280 Speaker 1: him I was always a fan. I always followed him 1199 01:22:43,320 --> 01:22:47,280 Speaker 1: on X because he always has great video clips that 1200 01:22:47,360 --> 01:22:51,160 Speaker 1: I invariably use in my show. Is a very gracious, 1201 01:22:51,280 --> 01:22:55,439 Speaker 1: very very good guy. He did an incredibly deep dive. 1202 01:22:55,560 --> 01:22:59,320 Speaker 1: He took a look at a business that elon Omar 1203 01:23:00,000 --> 01:23:03,400 Speaker 1: aims to own with her third husband. It's a winery 1204 01:23:04,000 --> 01:23:08,240 Speaker 1: and it doesn't actually appear to be a real business. 1205 01:23:09,520 --> 01:23:12,960 Speaker 1: Yet it last year reported, at least she reported on 1206 01:23:13,040 --> 01:23:18,600 Speaker 1: her campaign finance documents on her personal income filings that 1207 01:23:18,680 --> 01:23:23,920 Speaker 1: it made five million dollars. As the kids say, make 1208 01:23:24,000 --> 01:23:25,639 Speaker 1: it make sense. Here's Ben. 1209 01:23:25,720 --> 01:23:29,960 Speaker 6: Here's ilhan Omar's financial disclosure from the congressional record. You're 1210 01:23:30,040 --> 01:23:32,360 Speaker 6: twenty twenty three. I want to bring your attention to 1211 01:23:32,560 --> 01:23:36,479 Speaker 6: this company right down here a St. Crewellc. This is 1212 01:23:36,520 --> 01:23:40,519 Speaker 6: a winery in Santa Rosa, California. It's not doing that well. 1213 01:23:40,520 --> 01:23:43,120 Speaker 6: The total value of the winery is listed at fifteen 1214 01:23:43,200 --> 01:23:47,479 Speaker 6: thousand dollars and ilhan Omar's barely making any money off 1215 01:23:47,520 --> 01:23:51,519 Speaker 6: of it at all, hardly enough to pay a parking ticket. Okay, 1216 01:23:51,760 --> 01:23:54,920 Speaker 6: that's fine, nothing really mysterious there. Businesses fail all the time. 1217 01:23:55,200 --> 01:23:57,519 Speaker 6: But go ahead and look at her filing for twenty 1218 01:23:57,600 --> 01:24:00,240 Speaker 6: twenty four and you'll find that est Crue Winery, the 1219 01:24:00,280 --> 01:24:04,200 Speaker 6: same company and the same location, is now worth five 1220 01:24:04,400 --> 01:24:08,559 Speaker 6: million dollars. That's incredible, up from fifteen thousand and now 1221 01:24:08,600 --> 01:24:12,280 Speaker 6: glan Omar's making enough to pay rent. 1222 01:24:13,080 --> 01:24:16,920 Speaker 1: Really, how does that happen? This has got to be 1223 01:24:17,080 --> 01:24:21,680 Speaker 1: just an incredibly successful business, right, goes from almost no 1224 01:24:21,800 --> 01:24:25,519 Speaker 1: revenue in twenty twenty three to five million dollars in 1225 01:24:25,680 --> 01:24:31,800 Speaker 1: twenty twenty four. Wow, that's fantastic. Well, Johnson did a 1226 01:24:31,800 --> 01:24:35,880 Speaker 1: little digging first. He went to the wineries social media. 1227 01:24:36,800 --> 01:24:41,280 Speaker 1: Last Facebook post early January of twenty twenty three. Same 1228 01:24:41,280 --> 01:24:45,559 Speaker 1: thing with Instagram. Now that's very weird, right, I mean, 1229 01:24:45,600 --> 01:24:48,480 Speaker 1: you think this is a booming business out of nowhere, 1230 01:24:48,520 --> 01:24:53,519 Speaker 1: it just starts going gangbusters. Everybody knows in this day 1231 01:24:53,520 --> 01:24:55,759 Speaker 1: and age, you really have to have a robust presence 1232 01:24:55,800 --> 01:24:59,040 Speaker 1: on social media in order to get your word out there. Okay, well, 1233 01:24:59,120 --> 01:25:03,640 Speaker 1: maybe may they're not doing anything with social media. Maybe 1234 01:25:03,840 --> 01:25:06,719 Speaker 1: they're just doing all their marketing through their website. So 1235 01:25:06,960 --> 01:25:08,920 Speaker 1: Johnson went to their website. 1236 01:25:08,479 --> 01:25:10,519 Speaker 6: So I'm sure I can go and get some of 1237 01:25:10,520 --> 01:25:13,559 Speaker 6: their wine. Right, Well, they don't have any activities here, 1238 01:25:14,280 --> 01:25:18,400 Speaker 6: so maybe I could just go to their location and 1239 01:25:18,400 --> 01:25:20,880 Speaker 6: buy some of their wines, or maybe give them a call. 1240 01:25:21,439 --> 01:25:24,960 Speaker 6: Let's try and go to their location here. This is 1241 01:25:25,640 --> 01:25:30,240 Speaker 6: the Google street view of St. Crew Winery, and what 1242 01:25:30,320 --> 01:25:34,040 Speaker 6: you'll find here is an empty parking lot. Doesn't actually 1243 01:25:34,080 --> 01:25:38,679 Speaker 6: look like an operational business. Certainly isn't the same name. 1244 01:25:39,439 --> 01:25:43,080 Speaker 6: So okay, let's go ahead and give them a call, 1245 01:25:43,520 --> 01:25:45,400 Speaker 6: see if maybe they pick up. Let's go ahead and 1246 01:25:45,400 --> 01:25:47,800 Speaker 6: call the number on the web page. I couldn't give 1247 01:25:47,800 --> 01:25:51,439 Speaker 6: them a call and find out. Oh no, user busy, 1248 01:25:52,520 --> 01:25:57,080 Speaker 6: let's try it. Okay, well done this like twenty times today. Okay, 1249 01:25:57,400 --> 01:26:03,080 Speaker 6: so that didn't work. Is there any wine in this 1250 01:26:03,240 --> 01:26:05,479 Speaker 6: wine company? Is there anything about wines? Because I see 1251 01:26:05,479 --> 01:26:08,960 Speaker 6: like stuff about events, but like, what is this? Exactly 1252 01:26:09,560 --> 01:26:11,959 Speaker 6: are you supposed to sell wine at your wine company? 1253 01:26:12,080 --> 01:26:13,160 Speaker 6: Where are your wines? 1254 01:26:13,520 --> 01:26:14,839 Speaker 1: Oh? There are no wines. 1255 01:26:14,960 --> 01:26:18,040 Speaker 6: You don't know why because this is a fake company. 1256 01:26:19,680 --> 01:26:25,960 Speaker 1: Sure looks that way, doesn't it. The address that's listed 1257 01:26:26,000 --> 01:26:29,680 Speaker 1: on the website is rather obviously not a winery. It 1258 01:26:29,720 --> 01:26:32,599 Speaker 1: appears to be a parking lot for some other business. 1259 01:26:33,360 --> 01:26:38,200 Speaker 1: The website doesn't actually have any contact information that links 1260 01:26:38,280 --> 01:26:42,120 Speaker 1: to a live person. There is no other present. I 1261 01:26:42,120 --> 01:26:45,360 Speaker 1: actually looked up this winery this afternoon to see if 1262 01:26:45,400 --> 01:26:47,760 Speaker 1: there was another They go to a different website or 1263 01:26:47,800 --> 01:26:54,360 Speaker 1: it's a different name. Nothing. It's a fraudulent business. This 1264 01:26:54,600 --> 01:27:02,640 Speaker 1: is absolutely one hundred percent fraud. Trump administration is investigating 1265 01:27:02,720 --> 01:27:08,280 Speaker 1: totally racist, right, completely racist. I mean, she's Somali, she's black. 1266 01:27:08,360 --> 01:27:14,640 Speaker 1: She's a big critic of the President, obviously, this is, 1267 01:27:15,840 --> 01:27:23,160 Speaker 1: you know, retaliation. What if I told you that? According 1268 01:27:23,160 --> 01:27:27,680 Speaker 1: to The New York Times, the Biden Justice Department was 1269 01:27:27,760 --> 01:27:31,400 Speaker 1: the one that actually opened up the probe into elon 1270 01:27:31,600 --> 01:27:36,840 Speaker 1: Omar's finances. The story the Justice Department under the Biden 1271 01:27:36,840 --> 01:27:41,120 Speaker 1: administration opened an investigation into Representative Elon Omar, Democrat of 1272 01:27:41,160 --> 01:27:46,360 Speaker 1: Minnesota in twenty twenty four to scrutinize her finances, campaigns, spending, 1273 01:27:46,439 --> 01:27:49,800 Speaker 1: and interactions with a foreign citizen. According to people with 1274 01:27:49,920 --> 01:27:53,080 Speaker 1: knowledge of the matter, the inquiry, initiated by the US 1275 01:27:53,160 --> 01:27:57,719 Speaker 1: Attorney's Office in Washington and the department's Public Integrity Unit 1276 01:27:57,840 --> 01:28:00,200 Speaker 1: in June of that year, appears to have stalled for 1277 01:28:00,360 --> 01:28:02,519 Speaker 1: lack of evidence. According to one of the people who 1278 01:28:02,520 --> 01:28:08,760 Speaker 1: requested anonymity to discuss internal department matters, lack of evidence. 1279 01:28:09,400 --> 01:28:12,719 Speaker 1: How the hell is it that Benny Johnson, of all people, 1280 01:28:12,920 --> 01:28:16,839 Speaker 1: was able to find pretty compelling evidence that she's running 1281 01:28:16,960 --> 01:28:24,160 Speaker 1: a winery that doesn't actually sell any wine. The investigation 1282 01:28:24,280 --> 01:28:26,840 Speaker 1: appeared to be thrust into the public spotlight on Monday, 1283 01:28:26,880 --> 01:28:30,720 Speaker 1: when President Trump blindsided Department officials by posting about it 1284 01:28:30,760 --> 01:28:34,160 Speaker 1: on truth social singling out Miss Omar. It was part 1285 01:28:34,160 --> 01:28:36,840 Speaker 1: of a rambling statement announcing a shakeup of the team 1286 01:28:36,880 --> 01:28:42,240 Speaker 1: overseeing immigration raids in miss Omar's Minneapolis district that misspelled 1287 01:28:42,240 --> 01:28:46,400 Speaker 1: her name. Ah, New York Times never changed. The DOJ 1288 01:28:46,680 --> 01:28:50,160 Speaker 1: and Congress are looking at Congresswoman Elon Omar, who left 1289 01:28:50,200 --> 01:28:52,880 Speaker 1: Somalia with nothing and is now reportedly worth more than 1290 01:28:52,880 --> 01:28:57,120 Speaker 1: forty four million dollars, he wrote, Time will tell All. 1291 01:28:57,240 --> 01:28:59,400 Speaker 1: It was not clear whether mister Trump was referring to 1292 01:28:59,439 --> 01:29:02,200 Speaker 1: another invent instigation altogether, or how he arrives at the 1293 01:29:02,240 --> 01:29:05,959 Speaker 1: forty four million dollar figure that is in fact accurate. 1294 01:29:06,040 --> 01:29:10,120 Speaker 1: Her net worth is now somewhere north of thirty million dollars, 1295 01:29:10,160 --> 01:29:13,479 Speaker 1: And of course the New York Times story then shifts 1296 01:29:13,520 --> 01:29:17,639 Speaker 1: its focus not to the revelation. Hey wow, her fraud 1297 01:29:17,840 --> 01:29:20,280 Speaker 1: was so bad that it even caught the attention of 1298 01:29:20,320 --> 01:29:24,040 Speaker 1: the Justice Department under Joe Biden, but then obviously was 1299 01:29:24,200 --> 01:29:27,080 Speaker 1: killed as quickly as it started. Oh yeah, you know, boss, 1300 01:29:27,120 --> 01:29:30,920 Speaker 1: We just couldn't find any evidence they were inventing crimes 1301 01:29:30,960 --> 01:29:34,880 Speaker 1: to get Trump. But they couldn't find the fraudulent winery 1302 01:29:34,960 --> 01:29:38,840 Speaker 1: that a conservative influencer was able to dig up in 1303 01:29:39,200 --> 01:29:45,800 Speaker 1: about a day and a half. Okay, coming up here, 1304 01:29:45,840 --> 01:29:50,519 Speaker 1: on the Dan O'Donnells show, an exclusive investigation, how is 1305 01:29:50,560 --> 01:29:55,320 Speaker 1: it that the nation's economy turned around so quickly? And yes, 1306 01:29:55,800 --> 01:29:59,800 Speaker 1: lives it most definitely did turn around quickly. Inflation is 1307 01:29:59,800 --> 01:30:02,799 Speaker 1: bad to normal and we're looking at five percent GDP 1308 01:30:03,479 --> 01:30:05,600 Speaker 1: for the fourth quarter of twenty twenty five. In the 1309 01:30:05,600 --> 01:30:10,400 Speaker 1: first quarter of twenty twenty six, real personal income is up. 1310 01:30:10,600 --> 01:30:13,559 Speaker 1: Tax breaks are going to put money in people's pockets. 1311 01:30:13,960 --> 01:30:18,559 Speaker 1: Could it be that the single biggest decline in net 1312 01:30:18,640 --> 01:30:25,000 Speaker 1: immigration in American history is having a massive economic impact 1313 01:30:25,080 --> 01:30:33,759 Speaker 1: and that impact is overwhelmingly positive. We investigate next conservative thought, 1314 01:30:33,880 --> 01:30:36,240 Speaker 1: not just talk Welcome back to it. It is the 1315 01:30:36,479 --> 01:30:41,000 Speaker 1: Dan o'donald's show. New data from the Census Bureau finds 1316 01:30:41,240 --> 01:30:48,120 Speaker 1: net international migration is absolutely plummeting down eighty eight percent 1317 01:30:48,479 --> 01:30:52,719 Speaker 1: in a year under President Trump, peaking at two point 1318 01:30:52,760 --> 01:30:57,799 Speaker 1: seven million. Now, this is net migration, not gross, meaning 1319 01:30:58,240 --> 01:31:01,360 Speaker 1: the number of people who are coming into this country 1320 01:31:01,479 --> 01:31:04,360 Speaker 1: and the number of people who are leaving. You have 1321 01:31:04,600 --> 01:31:08,040 Speaker 1: net positive immigration that means more people are coming than 1322 01:31:08,120 --> 01:31:11,080 Speaker 1: are leaving. Net negative, more people are leaving than coming. 1323 01:31:11,720 --> 01:31:14,519 Speaker 1: Despite the fact that the left is constantly talking about 1324 01:31:14,520 --> 01:31:19,599 Speaker 1: what a racist hell hole America is a whole ton 1325 01:31:19,880 --> 01:31:24,960 Speaker 1: of people want to come to the United States. Net 1326 01:31:25,080 --> 01:31:29,080 Speaker 1: positive migration two point seven million in twenty twenty four, 1327 01:31:29,200 --> 01:31:34,080 Speaker 1: declining fifty percent to one point three million in twenty 1328 01:31:34,120 --> 01:31:37,920 Speaker 1: twenty five, and is now projected to decline Are you 1329 01:31:37,960 --> 01:31:43,200 Speaker 1: ready for this to just three hundred twenty one thousand 1330 01:31:43,560 --> 01:31:48,920 Speaker 1: in twenty twenty six under current trends. Biggest reason for this, 1331 01:31:49,040 --> 01:31:52,559 Speaker 1: rather obviously, is that President Trump, in just a matter 1332 01:31:52,600 --> 01:31:56,320 Speaker 1: of weeks after taking office last January, shut down the border. 1333 01:31:56,360 --> 01:31:59,160 Speaker 1: He was right, you did not need new laws, You 1334 01:31:59,400 --> 01:32:02,200 Speaker 1: just needed a new president. We have all of the 1335 01:32:02,280 --> 01:32:05,320 Speaker 1: laws we need to shut down the border. We always did. 1336 01:32:05,400 --> 01:32:08,719 Speaker 1: We had a president, though, in Joe Biden, or more 1337 01:32:08,800 --> 01:32:13,519 Speaker 1: accurately stated, a group of thirty and forty something they 1338 01:32:13,680 --> 01:32:16,800 Speaker 1: them's around him, who actually took the power of the 1339 01:32:16,840 --> 01:32:20,360 Speaker 1: president from a senile old man. They didn't want to 1340 01:32:20,479 --> 01:32:23,400 Speaker 1: enforce the border. They wanted it wide open, they wanted 1341 01:32:23,400 --> 01:32:27,400 Speaker 1: it porous. Why well, we established that last hour because 1342 01:32:27,439 --> 01:32:31,719 Speaker 1: it gives them political power. Even if illegal immigrants never 1343 01:32:31,960 --> 01:32:36,479 Speaker 1: cast a vote, not once, just their mere presence in 1344 01:32:36,600 --> 01:32:41,519 Speaker 1: blue states gives Democrats an advantage in congressional apportionment. It 1345 01:32:41,560 --> 01:32:44,000 Speaker 1: gives them more voting power in the Congress, and it 1346 01:32:44,080 --> 01:32:47,479 Speaker 1: makes it easier for them to win the presidency because 1347 01:32:47,520 --> 01:32:53,800 Speaker 1: congressional apportionment also apportions electoral votes. But what if all 1348 01:32:53,800 --> 01:32:56,920 Speaker 1: the economic successes that we're seeing in the first year 1349 01:32:56,920 --> 01:33:00,720 Speaker 1: of the Trump administration can be directly tied to this 1350 01:33:00,920 --> 01:33:08,880 Speaker 1: dramatic drop in net migration. Illegal immigration massively drives up costs, 1351 01:33:09,320 --> 01:33:14,720 Speaker 1: specifically the local tax burden. Public services and education in 1352 01:33:14,840 --> 01:33:19,040 Speaker 1: particular are hardest hit. More people in a given community, 1353 01:33:19,080 --> 01:33:25,400 Speaker 1: including children, increases demand for education, kh wells schooling, special education, 1354 01:33:26,040 --> 01:33:31,280 Speaker 1: English as a second language, instruction, pupil services. All of 1355 01:33:31,320 --> 01:33:35,400 Speaker 1: this stuff costs money. Who do you think pays for 1356 01:33:35,479 --> 01:33:39,519 Speaker 1: this stuff? Do you think it's the new arrivals or 1357 01:33:39,560 --> 01:33:42,120 Speaker 1: do you think it is the rest of the people 1358 01:33:42,280 --> 01:33:47,480 Speaker 1: in said community. Not only that, you're paying for increased 1359 01:33:47,760 --> 01:33:53,960 Speaker 1: law enforcement, detention of illegal immigrants, adjudication of the crimes 1360 01:33:54,000 --> 01:33:56,960 Speaker 1: that they commit. Not only that, at the federal level, 1361 01:33:57,200 --> 01:34:00,320 Speaker 1: there is an increased need for border enforcement and for 1362 01:34:00,960 --> 01:34:04,800 Speaker 1: interior enforcement of immigration laws, ice that sort of thing. 1363 01:34:04,880 --> 01:34:09,560 Speaker 1: You need detention beds, you need transportation, you need humanitarian 1364 01:34:10,640 --> 01:34:14,640 Speaker 1: things for these migrants. Those all incur costs to the 1365 01:34:14,720 --> 01:34:22,320 Speaker 1: American taxpayer. Illegal immigrants also drive up healthcare costs. They 1366 01:34:22,439 --> 01:34:25,479 Speaker 1: usually don't get insurance. I don't know if you knew this, 1367 01:34:26,120 --> 01:34:31,880 Speaker 1: but their primary care physicians are almost invariably emergency rooms, 1368 01:34:31,920 --> 01:34:36,160 Speaker 1: which are not allowed to turn away anyone regardless of 1369 01:34:36,200 --> 01:34:38,639 Speaker 1: whether or not they have an ability to pay for 1370 01:34:38,680 --> 01:34:43,759 Speaker 1: the services that they are going to use. Migrants almost 1371 01:34:43,960 --> 01:34:48,080 Speaker 1: never pay out of pocket or through insurance for any 1372 01:34:48,200 --> 01:34:56,320 Speaker 1: emergency room visits guests. Who does. The hospitals themselves and 1373 01:34:56,479 --> 01:35:01,960 Speaker 1: local governments all absorb the uncompensation care costs and then 1374 01:35:02,240 --> 01:35:07,360 Speaker 1: pass those costs onto their paying customers i e. You 1375 01:35:08,280 --> 01:35:12,759 Speaker 1: and me and everyone else who has to use medical 1376 01:35:12,800 --> 01:35:16,400 Speaker 1: services but can't just skip out of the bill. Not 1377 01:35:16,439 --> 01:35:21,479 Speaker 1: only that, if you have a rapid population increase, there 1378 01:35:21,560 --> 01:35:26,360 Speaker 1: is also a sudden competition for the same basic amount 1379 01:35:26,439 --> 01:35:29,800 Speaker 1: of resources. I've talked about this often on the Dan 1380 01:35:29,840 --> 01:35:35,559 Speaker 1: O'Donnells show. Yes, you cannot think of resources as a 1381 01:35:35,800 --> 01:35:41,000 Speaker 1: zero sum game. We are constantly able to create new 1382 01:35:41,080 --> 01:35:44,519 Speaker 1: resources to replenish our supply of resources. But in a 1383 01:35:44,560 --> 01:35:48,800 Speaker 1: given moment, if there is a sudden influx of migrants, 1384 01:35:49,479 --> 01:35:53,439 Speaker 1: you can only build apartment buildings and houses so quickly, 1385 01:35:53,920 --> 01:35:56,960 Speaker 1: So in that moment when you are looking for an apartment, 1386 01:35:57,080 --> 01:36:00,400 Speaker 1: if you are all of a sudden competing with four 1387 01:36:00,600 --> 01:36:06,040 Speaker 1: million new arrivals from Guatemala and Honduras, the costs are 1388 01:36:06,080 --> 01:36:09,480 Speaker 1: going to go up because not only are they competing 1389 01:36:09,520 --> 01:36:12,680 Speaker 1: for the same housing, but you're now suddenly competing with 1390 01:36:12,840 --> 01:36:17,679 Speaker 1: the government, which is paying top dollar to get hotel rooms, 1391 01:36:17,720 --> 01:36:22,559 Speaker 1: to get apartment buildings to house these people. There have 1392 01:36:22,640 --> 01:36:24,880 Speaker 1: been a whole lot of studies that have been done 1393 01:36:25,360 --> 01:36:30,320 Speaker 1: on the cost of illegal immigration. The Congressional Budget Office 1394 01:36:30,600 --> 01:36:32,840 Speaker 1: just put out a study about a year and a 1395 01:36:32,920 --> 01:36:37,080 Speaker 1: half ago effects of the surge and immigration on state 1396 01:36:37,080 --> 01:36:41,439 Speaker 1: and local budgets in twenty twenty three. According to the 1397 01:36:41,439 --> 01:36:47,880 Speaker 1: Congressional Budget Office, this contributed to a budget deficit, meaning 1398 01:36:48,439 --> 01:36:51,559 Speaker 1: how much state and local governments were on the hook 1399 01:36:51,600 --> 01:36:54,360 Speaker 1: how much money that they had to pay extra of 1400 01:36:54,720 --> 01:37:00,680 Speaker 1: nine point two billion dollars in twenty twenty three. They 1401 01:37:00,720 --> 01:37:05,040 Speaker 1: had to spend nine billion dollars taking care of people 1402 01:37:05,040 --> 01:37:08,320 Speaker 1: who suddenly were dropped in their lapse but have no 1403 01:37:08,560 --> 01:37:13,920 Speaker 1: earthly business being in this country. The gold standard study 1404 01:37:14,320 --> 01:37:20,040 Speaker 1: of just what illegal immigration immigration actually legal and illegal 1405 01:37:20,760 --> 01:37:26,560 Speaker 1: costs the American citizen is from the National Academies of Sciences. 1406 01:37:27,160 --> 01:37:30,439 Speaker 1: It's called the Economic and Fiscal Consequences of Immigration. It 1407 01:37:30,520 --> 01:37:34,680 Speaker 1: was first done in twenty seventeen and then updated in 1408 01:37:34,760 --> 01:37:40,640 Speaker 1: twenty twenty four. The key finding was that first generation 1409 01:37:41,200 --> 01:37:46,439 Speaker 1: low skilled immigrants, both legal and illegal, are a net 1410 01:37:46,640 --> 01:37:52,479 Speaker 1: drain on a country. No real surprise is here. They 1411 01:37:52,479 --> 01:37:56,479 Speaker 1: are much more likely to use more services than they 1412 01:37:56,479 --> 01:38:00,000 Speaker 1: are contributing to the economy. They don't have jobs skilled, 1413 01:38:00,080 --> 01:38:05,599 Speaker 1: they don't have skills that will immediately contribute to the 1414 01:38:05,640 --> 01:38:10,439 Speaker 1: tax base. We're not importing the best Guatemalon surgeons who 1415 01:38:10,479 --> 01:38:13,080 Speaker 1: will immediately come in and start making half a million 1416 01:38:13,120 --> 01:38:18,040 Speaker 1: dollars a year. These are low skilled laborers who are 1417 01:38:18,080 --> 01:38:20,599 Speaker 1: going to be much more likely to be a drain 1418 01:38:20,760 --> 01:38:23,240 Speaker 1: on a given area where they settle because they are 1419 01:38:23,360 --> 01:38:26,759 Speaker 1: much more likely to use welfare, They're much more likely 1420 01:38:27,040 --> 01:38:31,000 Speaker 1: to use other social services, and they are much more 1421 01:38:31,200 --> 01:38:34,680 Speaker 1: likely to need the police called on them or to 1422 01:38:34,880 --> 01:38:41,759 Speaker 1: require some form of law enforcement services. Fair, the anti 1423 01:38:41,920 --> 01:38:47,360 Speaker 1: illegal immigration think tank, put out a study that uses 1424 01:38:47,640 --> 01:38:52,840 Speaker 1: this twenty seventeen National Academy of Sciences survey to put 1425 01:38:52,880 --> 01:38:57,320 Speaker 1: out a study. They basically extrapolated the data from this 1426 01:38:58,000 --> 01:39:04,840 Speaker 1: National Institute of Sciences thirty and found American taxpayers face 1427 01:39:04,920 --> 01:39:09,080 Speaker 1: a net annual cost of at least one hundred and 1428 01:39:09,120 --> 01:39:15,160 Speaker 1: fifty one billion dollars per year because of illegal immigration. 1429 01:39:16,320 --> 01:39:19,639 Speaker 1: It costs US one hundred and fifty one billion dollars 1430 01:39:20,200 --> 01:39:24,479 Speaker 1: per year. Now, the most recent year for which data 1431 01:39:24,520 --> 01:39:28,040 Speaker 1: is available for that is twenty twenty two. Things got 1432 01:39:28,200 --> 01:39:31,800 Speaker 1: way worse in twenty two, twenty three, and twenty four 1433 01:39:32,280 --> 01:39:37,000 Speaker 1: with illegal immigration. I'm willing to wager it's way more. 1434 01:39:38,280 --> 01:39:43,519 Speaker 1: What Fair found is that each illegal immigrant in the 1435 01:39:43,680 --> 01:39:49,040 Speaker 1: United States costs an average of sixty eight thousand dollars 1436 01:39:49,520 --> 01:39:58,280 Speaker 1: or more every single year. That's absolutely insane. Heritage Foundation 1437 01:39:58,760 --> 01:40:02,479 Speaker 1: also did a study fiscal cost of unlawful immigrants and 1438 01:40:02,600 --> 01:40:08,240 Speaker 1: amnesty to the US taxpayer. They actually found, when adjusting 1439 01:40:08,320 --> 01:40:11,080 Speaker 1: for the roughly seven million they put the number of 1440 01:40:11,360 --> 01:40:16,880 Speaker 1: illegal aliens allowed in under Biden at seven million, they 1441 01:40:16,960 --> 01:40:22,599 Speaker 1: said the existing illegal alien population causes at least one 1442 01:40:22,760 --> 01:40:27,679 Speaker 1: hundred ten billion dollars in annual net fiscal costs. Yes, 1443 01:40:28,479 --> 01:40:33,960 Speaker 1: as liberals love to say, they pay taxes, they're contributing 1444 01:40:34,000 --> 01:40:39,360 Speaker 1: to the tax space. Yes, sometimes mostly in sales taxes 1445 01:40:39,400 --> 01:40:46,000 Speaker 1: when they buy things when you look at the net cost, though, 1446 01:40:46,960 --> 01:40:50,439 Speaker 1: because they use so much more in welfare, so much 1447 01:40:50,479 --> 01:40:55,880 Speaker 1: more in medicaids, so much more in law enforcement and schooling, 1448 01:40:56,000 --> 01:40:58,880 Speaker 1: and all of these other things that Americans have to 1449 01:40:58,920 --> 01:41:03,120 Speaker 1: pay for, they are a net drain on taxpayers. Heritage 1450 01:41:03,120 --> 01:41:11,480 Speaker 1: Foundation similarly found low education illegals create huge burdens, confirming 1451 01:41:11,600 --> 01:41:16,759 Speaker 1: National Academy's data showing negative fiscal impacts for low skilled groups. 1452 01:41:16,920 --> 01:41:19,600 Speaker 1: Who do you suppose the Biden administration was bringing in 1453 01:41:19,720 --> 01:41:22,720 Speaker 1: high skilled or low skilled workers? Were they bringing them 1454 01:41:22,800 --> 01:41:30,440 Speaker 1: in in small numbers or in massive numbers? Now, imagine 1455 01:41:30,479 --> 01:41:33,559 Speaker 1: if you go on a campaign in your first year 1456 01:41:33,800 --> 01:41:38,880 Speaker 1: of a new presidential administration to deport or to induce 1457 01:41:39,120 --> 01:41:42,799 Speaker 1: as many of these people to leave as humanly possible. 1458 01:41:43,840 --> 01:41:46,720 Speaker 1: What do you think is going to happen? Why do 1459 01:41:46,760 --> 01:41:50,080 Speaker 1: you think all of a sudden, we went from nine 1460 01:41:50,280 --> 01:41:54,200 Speaker 1: percent year over year inflation all the way down to 1461 01:41:54,439 --> 01:41:59,200 Speaker 1: less than three percent, even as President Trump is engaged 1462 01:41:59,240 --> 01:42:03,960 Speaker 1: in something that's traditionally believed to be inflationary, like terrifing 1463 01:42:04,080 --> 01:42:08,280 Speaker 1: every other nation on Earth. It's because we have gotten 1464 01:42:08,479 --> 01:42:12,120 Speaker 1: rid of the excess drain on the economy and the 1465 01:42:12,280 --> 01:42:18,520 Speaker 1: massive competition for resources that existed throughout the Biden administration. 1466 01:42:19,040 --> 01:42:22,280 Speaker 1: Prices are going down because there is no longer this 1467 01:42:22,479 --> 01:42:27,640 Speaker 1: artificial competition. It's not just national security, it's not just 1468 01:42:27,880 --> 01:42:33,080 Speaker 1: law enforcement policy that necessitates illegal aliens out of this country. 1469 01:42:33,120 --> 01:42:38,880 Speaker 1: It is also good fiscal policy. It is deflationary. It 1470 01:42:39,000 --> 01:42:44,080 Speaker 1: is putting downward pressure on prices, making things more affordable 1471 01:42:44,439 --> 01:42:48,160 Speaker 1: for the American citizens who actually do have a right 1472 01:42:48,280 --> 01:42:51,280 Speaker 1: to be here. You're listening to the Dan O'Donnell show, 1473 01:42:51,840 --> 01:42:58,680 Speaker 1: Conservative thought not Just talk back in a second. So 1474 01:42:58,720 --> 01:43:01,000 Speaker 1: I got a haircut today. If you are watching us 1475 01:43:01,080 --> 01:43:05,120 Speaker 1: on the Dan okem you probably noticed that. And I 1476 01:43:05,200 --> 01:43:07,519 Speaker 1: was in a hurry, so I went to sport Clips. 1477 01:43:07,560 --> 01:43:10,720 Speaker 1: I actually love sport Clips. I've been going to the 1478 01:43:10,760 --> 01:43:12,680 Speaker 1: same one or two for a while. I actually know 1479 01:43:12,760 --> 01:43:17,599 Speaker 1: the stylists there, nice ladies, and they of course had 1480 01:43:17,640 --> 01:43:20,800 Speaker 1: on you know sport clips. Everybody knows sport clips, right, 1481 01:43:20,800 --> 01:43:25,080 Speaker 1: It's like haircuts for guys. And I do not get 1482 01:43:25,080 --> 01:43:29,000 Speaker 1: the hot towel. I like the hot towel. I always 1483 01:43:29,000 --> 01:43:31,559 Speaker 1: feel weird when I get the hot towel. It just 1484 01:43:31,760 --> 01:43:37,040 Speaker 1: I don't know, it just feels odd. Also, I didn't 1485 01:43:37,080 --> 01:43:39,400 Speaker 1: have a whole lot of time I was running errands 1486 01:43:39,439 --> 01:43:43,439 Speaker 1: and doing some other stuff, so I did not get 1487 01:43:43,479 --> 01:43:47,479 Speaker 1: the hot towel. They had it on ESPN, of course, 1488 01:43:48,880 --> 01:43:55,479 Speaker 1: and stephen A. Smith, who he's stephen A. So you 1489 01:43:55,560 --> 01:43:57,639 Speaker 1: take what he says with a grain of salt. Right, 1490 01:43:57,800 --> 01:44:03,760 Speaker 1: everybody knows this, But he had on Brian Windhorst, who 1491 01:44:03,920 --> 01:44:11,400 Speaker 1: is one of the most respected NBA reporters. He's very 1492 01:44:11,439 --> 01:44:15,240 Speaker 1: plugged in, he's in the know, He's he just he 1493 01:44:15,320 --> 01:44:18,120 Speaker 1: knows what he's talking about. Right, This isn't just steven 1494 01:44:18,200 --> 01:44:22,479 Speaker 1: A yelling at the top of his lungs with Kendrick Perkins. Okay. 1495 01:44:24,600 --> 01:44:30,320 Speaker 1: Windhorst was saying the Bucks absolutely need to tank, they 1496 01:44:30,360 --> 01:44:33,240 Speaker 1: need to get rid of Yannis, and that Yannis has 1497 01:44:33,439 --> 01:44:37,280 Speaker 1: already made up his mind that he is out. He 1498 01:44:37,479 --> 01:44:41,320 Speaker 1: is not coming back to Milwaukee. The Bucks have absolutely 1499 01:44:41,439 --> 01:44:45,439 Speaker 1: no chance of getting him, and they pretty much just 1500 01:44:45,560 --> 01:44:50,559 Speaker 1: need to move on. Right. I don't know if I 1501 01:44:50,600 --> 01:44:59,400 Speaker 1: believe that. That said, when you have once again national 1502 01:44:59,479 --> 01:45:03,360 Speaker 1: pundits and not just people like steven A, like you 1503 01:45:03,400 --> 01:45:10,000 Speaker 1: know ESPN is what is it embraced debate was that 1504 01:45:10,040 --> 01:45:12,360 Speaker 1: the philosophy they went with so they got rid of 1505 01:45:12,400 --> 01:45:16,880 Speaker 1: a whole lot of Reporters. There's a wonderful show on 1506 01:45:16,880 --> 01:45:19,160 Speaker 1: on Sundays on ESPN. I used to watch when I 1507 01:45:19,160 --> 01:45:21,080 Speaker 1: was a kid. It was called The Sports Reporters. You 1508 01:45:21,080 --> 01:45:25,920 Speaker 1: remember that with Jeremy Shapp. Dick Shapp was the host 1509 01:45:25,960 --> 01:45:28,320 Speaker 1: of that for a long time, and it was a 1510 01:45:28,400 --> 01:45:31,479 Speaker 1: roundtable where these guys would, yes, give their opinions, but 1511 01:45:31,560 --> 01:45:33,120 Speaker 1: it was always very well informed. 1512 01:45:33,160 --> 01:45:33,360 Speaker 4: Well. 1513 01:45:34,240 --> 01:45:36,920 Speaker 1: A lot of the guys from that era were either 1514 01:45:37,000 --> 01:45:40,800 Speaker 1: allowed to retire or they were cut loose because they 1515 01:45:40,840 --> 01:45:45,360 Speaker 1: wanted to pay Steven A and who's the guy, Oh 1516 01:45:45,360 --> 01:45:47,440 Speaker 1: my god, why can't I remember his name? Pat McAfee, 1517 01:45:48,320 --> 01:45:51,040 Speaker 1: Pat McAfee. They wanted to pay them tens of millions 1518 01:45:51,080 --> 01:45:56,640 Speaker 1: of dollars. I don't disagree necessarily with the philosophy. It 1519 01:45:56,720 --> 01:45:59,360 Speaker 1: is a business, after all, and the whole point is 1520 01:45:59,360 --> 01:46:03,679 Speaker 1: to get your product. I might have been the only 1521 01:46:03,720 --> 01:46:11,439 Speaker 1: person watching The Sports Reporters on Sunday morning, but you 1522 01:46:11,680 --> 01:46:13,960 Speaker 1: sort of have to take what is said on these 1523 01:46:14,000 --> 01:46:18,519 Speaker 1: programs with a grain of salt. Windhorst, though, is like 1524 01:46:18,600 --> 01:46:24,000 Speaker 1: Adam Schefter, like Sham's Charania, who's their big baseball guy. 1525 01:46:24,600 --> 01:46:27,439 Speaker 1: The guys who are actually very plugged in, they're doing 1526 01:46:27,479 --> 01:46:33,400 Speaker 1: the legwork. Windhorst is a very respected reporter. He says, 1527 01:46:34,400 --> 01:46:39,599 Speaker 1: Yannis is done with the Bucks, and this, folks, is 1528 01:46:39,680 --> 01:46:43,519 Speaker 1: something that I have been hearing literally since this past summer, 1529 01:46:44,280 --> 01:46:47,400 Speaker 1: that he is convinced that the Bucks are not going 1530 01:46:47,439 --> 01:46:50,800 Speaker 1: to be able to win, that he does not have 1531 01:46:50,880 --> 01:46:54,679 Speaker 1: a future here. But he is terrified, and I keep 1532 01:46:54,720 --> 01:46:59,040 Speaker 1: hearing the word terrified, that he's going to be the 1533 01:46:59,040 --> 01:47:02,360 Speaker 1: bad guy. He does not want to force a trade. 1534 01:47:02,680 --> 01:47:05,360 Speaker 1: And right now you might have heard that the Bucks 1535 01:47:06,080 --> 01:47:12,280 Speaker 1: season is basically over. Today, Windhorst and Kendrick Perkins and 1536 01:47:12,320 --> 01:47:14,439 Speaker 1: Steven A were saying, look, this is going to be 1537 01:47:14,439 --> 01:47:17,200 Speaker 1: the first time in something like six or seven years 1538 01:47:17,520 --> 01:47:19,760 Speaker 1: that the Bucks don't make the playoffs. But Stephen A 1539 01:47:19,760 --> 01:47:21,439 Speaker 1: actually made a great point. He said, well, what does 1540 01:47:21,439 --> 01:47:25,040 Speaker 1: it matter they lose in the first round. Every single 1541 01:47:25,160 --> 01:47:27,760 Speaker 1: year have they gotten out of the first round since 1542 01:47:27,800 --> 01:47:31,840 Speaker 1: they won the NBA title, I'm not sure they have. 1543 01:47:34,479 --> 01:47:37,320 Speaker 1: This is also one of the only years that the 1544 01:47:37,320 --> 01:47:41,040 Speaker 1: Bucks actually control a draft pick. They are going to 1545 01:47:41,240 --> 01:47:45,760 Speaker 1: They have swap rights with the New Orleans Pelicans. Pelicans 1546 01:47:45,760 --> 01:47:48,040 Speaker 1: are one of the worst teams in the NBA, so 1547 01:47:48,200 --> 01:47:52,680 Speaker 1: the Bucks get whichever pick is worse between Theirs and 1548 01:47:52,800 --> 01:47:56,760 Speaker 1: New Orleans is well. New Orleans is not going anywhere. 1549 01:47:57,880 --> 01:48:01,920 Speaker 1: Zion Williamson is in the process of eating himself right 1550 01:48:01,920 --> 01:48:04,720 Speaker 1: out of the league. They're not a good team. They 1551 01:48:04,760 --> 01:48:08,240 Speaker 1: are probably going to get a very high lottery pick. 1552 01:48:09,479 --> 01:48:14,400 Speaker 1: The thinking then is that the Bucks can either tank 1553 01:48:15,120 --> 01:48:19,960 Speaker 1: just intentionally lose, or they can compete to get in 1554 01:48:20,000 --> 01:48:23,040 Speaker 1: the play in tournament. Remember, you don't just make the 1555 01:48:23,080 --> 01:48:27,799 Speaker 1: playoffs in the NBA. The seventh, eighth, ninth, and tenth 1556 01:48:28,000 --> 01:48:31,439 Speaker 1: seeds all play in a little play in tournament before 1557 01:48:31,520 --> 01:48:33,680 Speaker 1: they get the right to be the number seven and 1558 01:48:33,760 --> 01:48:40,360 Speaker 1: number eight seeds. What point would that serve? It is 1559 01:48:40,400 --> 01:48:44,759 Speaker 1: my very strong belief that Yannis being out for quote 1560 01:48:45,120 --> 01:48:49,160 Speaker 1: four to six weeks is part of a tank effort, 1561 01:48:49,600 --> 01:48:53,280 Speaker 1: and I don't necessarily disagree with it. You've got a 1562 01:48:53,360 --> 01:48:57,840 Speaker 1: very top loaded draft this year. The top three players 1563 01:48:58,320 --> 01:49:03,840 Speaker 1: are incredibly ten ballented. The guard for Kansas whose name 1564 01:49:03,880 --> 01:49:08,360 Speaker 1: I can't remember, Darren, I can't remember. The other one 1565 01:49:08,360 --> 01:49:12,160 Speaker 1: I remember because he's the son of Carlos Boozer, former 1566 01:49:12,280 --> 01:49:17,000 Speaker 1: NBA player Cameron Boozer. What's that, Darren Peterson, Thank you 1567 01:49:17,080 --> 01:49:21,000 Speaker 1: very much, producer. Eric. Darren Peterson is now projected to 1568 01:49:21,040 --> 01:49:24,439 Speaker 1: be the number one pick. Number two is a guy 1569 01:49:24,520 --> 01:49:27,400 Speaker 1: who actually went to a school that a lot of 1570 01:49:27,400 --> 01:49:30,760 Speaker 1: people don't quite think of as an athletic hotbed byu 1571 01:49:30,840 --> 01:49:36,000 Speaker 1: aj die Bantza, who is All of these guys Boozer, Debansa, 1572 01:49:36,120 --> 01:49:40,320 Speaker 1: and Peterson are all averaging like twenty four points a 1573 01:49:40,320 --> 01:49:42,920 Speaker 1: game in college. That's very difficult to do, and all 1574 01:49:43,000 --> 01:49:47,439 Speaker 1: of them look absolutely dominant. If you can get one 1575 01:49:47,439 --> 01:49:51,640 Speaker 1: of the top three picks, that's a potentially franchise changing. 1576 01:49:52,760 --> 01:49:53,040 Speaker 4: Pick. 1577 01:49:54,360 --> 01:49:57,519 Speaker 1: Why would the Bucks not want to get in on 1578 01:49:57,600 --> 01:50:01,400 Speaker 1: what's projected to be a very good draft class that 1579 01:50:01,520 --> 01:50:04,760 Speaker 1: gives them some options They can say, hey, Yannis, look, 1580 01:50:04,880 --> 01:50:10,680 Speaker 1: we're reloading around Cameron, Boozer and you. Why don't you 1581 01:50:10,720 --> 01:50:16,320 Speaker 1: give us one more year? Or that gives them the 1582 01:50:16,560 --> 01:50:21,320 Speaker 1: player to build around while trading away Yannis getting more 1583 01:50:21,439 --> 01:50:26,400 Speaker 1: draft picks or more young players to build around a 1584 01:50:26,439 --> 01:50:31,679 Speaker 1: potential franchise cornerstone. To me, especially with this Yannis injury, 1585 01:50:32,320 --> 01:50:36,479 Speaker 1: I don't see another way forward for this organization, which 1586 01:50:36,479 --> 01:50:40,000 Speaker 1: has seemed stuck in the mud for at least the 1587 01:50:40,120 --> 01:50:43,160 Speaker 1: last four years. You're listening to the Dan o'donald Show. 1588 01:50:43,200 --> 01:50:48,679 Speaker 1: It is classical conservatism, contemporary style, and some sports talk 1589 01:50:48,800 --> 01:50:53,120 Speaker 1: thrown in sometimes as well. Just about three minutes left. 1590 01:50:53,280 --> 01:50:57,200 Speaker 1: You're on the Dan o'donald's show. Welcome back to it. 1591 01:50:57,439 --> 01:51:02,360 Speaker 1: This is always folks. Look, I know I will hear 1592 01:51:02,520 --> 01:51:07,320 Speaker 1: from the stick to the issues crowd. Rush always used 1593 01:51:07,320 --> 01:51:10,240 Speaker 1: to talk about that when he wanted to talk about football. 1594 01:51:10,280 --> 01:51:15,080 Speaker 1: I talk about sports, but more from the business aspect 1595 01:51:15,200 --> 01:51:19,080 Speaker 1: of it. I'm far less concerned with the x's and 1596 01:51:19,160 --> 01:51:22,680 Speaker 1: oh's of particular games than I am with sort of 1597 01:51:22,680 --> 01:51:26,839 Speaker 1: the psychology and the business behind it. And I'm always 1598 01:51:27,080 --> 01:51:31,920 Speaker 1: fascinated by the concept of tanking. While fans hate it 1599 01:51:32,840 --> 01:51:36,479 Speaker 1: as a general strategy, if you are not competing for 1600 01:51:36,560 --> 01:51:42,080 Speaker 1: a championship, you are probably better off after you get 1601 01:51:42,120 --> 01:51:45,120 Speaker 1: a reasonable assessment of how a season is going. This 1602 01:51:45,200 --> 01:51:48,720 Speaker 1: is why in the NFL it only makes sense to 1603 01:51:48,800 --> 01:51:52,120 Speaker 1: tank if you start out like oh to seven, because 1604 01:51:52,120 --> 01:51:58,360 Speaker 1: things can turn around so incredibly quickly. Speaking of things 1605 01:51:58,360 --> 01:52:01,120 Speaker 1: turning around quickly, did you see who made the Pro Bowl? 1606 01:52:02,080 --> 01:52:06,160 Speaker 1: Shetur Sanders. He had statistically one of the worst seasons. 1607 01:52:06,240 --> 01:52:08,840 Speaker 1: I think his quarterback rating was eighteen. I'm not even 1608 01:52:08,880 --> 01:52:10,800 Speaker 1: making that up. He made the Pro Bowl. What a 1609 01:52:10,960 --> 01:52:12,920 Speaker 1: joke that thing is, it's got to be put out 1610 01:52:12,920 --> 01:52:15,760 Speaker 1: of its misery and quickly. I think they're doing it 1611 01:52:15,840 --> 01:52:19,599 Speaker 1: at a holiday inn and suites on the Tuesday before 1612 01:52:19,680 --> 01:52:24,439 Speaker 1: the Super Bowl. But because things can turn around so 1613 01:52:24,520 --> 01:52:29,240 Speaker 1: quickly in the NFL, tanking doesn't always make sense, because 1614 01:52:30,360 --> 01:52:33,880 Speaker 1: in an eighty two game season, you can see pretty 1615 01:52:34,040 --> 01:52:38,080 Speaker 1: quickly how good you are relatively speaking, and if you 1616 01:52:38,120 --> 01:52:41,360 Speaker 1: get yourself in an early hole, it is very, very 1617 01:52:41,400 --> 01:52:44,720 Speaker 1: difficult because of the number of games there are to 1618 01:52:44,800 --> 01:52:50,599 Speaker 1: dig yourself out of it. It is always, always, I 1619 01:52:50,640 --> 01:52:53,679 Speaker 1: think the better bet to just tank and to try 1620 01:52:53,720 --> 01:52:56,400 Speaker 1: to get a higher draft pick. That to me just 1621 01:52:56,520 --> 01:53:02,479 Speaker 1: seems like an incredible strategy. All Right, we are out 1622 01:53:02,520 --> 01:53:07,240 Speaker 1: of time here on the Dan o'donald's show. Tomorrow, we 1623 01:53:07,280 --> 01:53:10,400 Speaker 1: are of course going to dive into all of the 1624 01:53:10,560 --> 01:53:16,200 Speaker 1: craziness going on in Minneapolis, as I suspect things are 1625 01:53:16,240 --> 01:53:23,840 Speaker 1: not ramping down, but rather ramping up. Have a wonderful evening, Wisconsin, 1626 01:53:23,960 --> 01:53:26,880 Speaker 1: be sure to stay warm. We will talk to you 1627 01:53:27,000 --> 01:53:30,240 Speaker 1: tomorrow right here on the Dan o'donald's show.
