The crime has shifted from New York 28 00:01:19,800 --> 00:01:23,960 Speaker 1: City to Rockland County and Upper Bergen County. You go 29 00:01:24,040 --> 00:01:27,880 Speaker 1: online and there's violent crime Spring Valley, New York. 30 00:01:28,360 --> 00:01:32,520 Speaker 3: And what is there to steal in Spring Valley, New York. 31 00:01:33,440 --> 00:01:39,679 Speaker 1: Oh Mark, the Jewish folks Borough Park have really moved 32 00:01:39,720 --> 00:01:43,040 Speaker 1: into this area and they actually do a good job of, 33 00:01:43,120 --> 00:01:48,640 Speaker 1: like you know, policing themselves. It's it's really the crime 34 00:01:48,800 --> 00:01:51,640 Speaker 1: is tremendous. 35 00:01:51,960 --> 00:01:54,400 Speaker 3: Well, you know, it's definitely going to be a problem. 36 00:01:54,680 --> 00:01:57,120 Speaker 3: That's one thing.

If it's a start to get 41 00:02:07,720 --> 00:02:10,400 Speaker 3: out of hand, there's a great US attorney in the 42 00:02:10,440 --> 00:02:13,720 Speaker 3: Southern District, j Clayton. He's a little busy right now 43 00:02:13,760 --> 00:02:17,040 Speaker 3: trying Maduro and Luigi Mangione and all this, but he 44 00:02:17,600 --> 00:02:20,000 Speaker 3: has said and he can do it. If there's a 45 00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:23,320 Speaker 3: crime problem, he'll step in with federal officers and arrest 46 00:02:23,360 --> 00:02:25,960 Speaker 3: criminals on the street. In fact, that's actually better because 47 00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:29,119 Speaker 3: if the NYPD arrest them, they go to New York 48 00:02:29,120 --> 00:02:33,000 Speaker 3: City local courts where left wing judges all let them out. 49 00:02:33,639 --> 00:02:35,960 Speaker 3: If the US Attorney arrest them, they go to federal 50 00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:38,880 Speaker 3: court where the most likely really get locked up.

This is all of forest the 66 00:03:35,080 --> 00:03:38,440 Speaker 3: War Powers Act. Has no connection to this incident. Nobody 67 00:03:38,480 --> 00:03:40,800 Speaker 3: went to war. If you did a quick three hour 68 00:03:40,920 --> 00:03:43,800 Speaker 3: military operation, it doesn't have anything to do with the 69 00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:47,480 Speaker 3: War Powers Act. If you blew up a drug boat, 70 00:03:47,560 --> 00:03:50,080 Speaker 3: the War Powers Act is not involved in any way. 71 00:03:50,640 --> 00:03:53,839 Speaker 3: Let's go to Vincent and Brooklyn.
