1 00:00:01,440 --> 00:00:06,440 Speaker 1: It's Night Side with Dan Ray on Belgibs, Boston's news Radio. 2 00:00:07,120 --> 00:00:11,520 Speaker 2: All right, again, my thanks to Heather Bish and Kathy 3 00:00:11,600 --> 00:00:16,000 Speaker 2: Cowerin for talking with us that past hour about the 4 00:00:16,320 --> 00:00:23,960 Speaker 2: disappearance of Heather's younger sister Molly. Just you know again, 5 00:00:24,200 --> 00:00:28,920 Speaker 2: the point that Paul from Nantasket made was really a 6 00:00:28,960 --> 00:00:34,279 Speaker 2: good one, and he was supported by Heather that there 7 00:00:34,280 --> 00:00:36,680 Speaker 2: are so many of these people. We as a society 8 00:00:36,760 --> 00:00:39,320 Speaker 2: want to give people a second and a third chance, 9 00:00:39,960 --> 00:00:43,400 Speaker 2: and there are some people who literally should be locked 10 00:00:43,440 --> 00:00:45,559 Speaker 2: up and the keys thrown away. And if you do 11 00:00:45,640 --> 00:00:49,960 Speaker 2: have any information on that you think might be relevant 12 00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:52,840 Speaker 2: to the Molly Bisch case, I know it's twenty six 13 00:00:52,920 --> 00:00:57,160 Speaker 2: years later. Massachusetts State Police, the office of the Worcester 14 00:00:57,240 --> 00:01:01,920 Speaker 2: County District Attorney Joe is five oh eight four five 15 00:01:02,040 --> 00:01:06,280 Speaker 2: three seventy five seventy five five zero eight four five 16 00:01:06,400 --> 00:01:11,840 Speaker 2: three seventy five seventy five. And again I think that 17 00:01:11,959 --> 00:01:15,000 Speaker 2: they truly believed that the person who did this to 18 00:01:16,440 --> 00:01:21,040 Speaker 2: Molly Bish is now dead, was not brought to justice, 19 00:01:22,080 --> 00:01:26,520 Speaker 2: at least in this life. So we move on. I 20 00:01:26,640 --> 00:01:31,559 Speaker 2: was listening over the weekend and there was a posting 21 00:01:32,240 --> 00:01:37,120 Speaker 2: that Donald Trump put on truth Social that's his website 22 00:01:37,800 --> 00:01:45,680 Speaker 2: that he basically postsu and it caught my eye, and 23 00:01:46,520 --> 00:01:52,800 Speaker 2: I'm wondering if this is a prelude to a larger strategy. 24 00:01:53,960 --> 00:01:56,800 Speaker 2: Let me read to you what he wrote, and then 25 00:01:56,840 --> 00:02:00,360 Speaker 2: I'm going to try to interpret it, and I'm going 26 00:02:00,400 --> 00:02:06,760 Speaker 2: to suggest that well, I'm going to suggest an idea, 27 00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:09,400 Speaker 2: and I would like to hear from you if you 28 00:02:09,440 --> 00:02:14,040 Speaker 2: think the idea has any merit. So on Saturday, I 29 00:02:14,120 --> 00:02:18,400 Speaker 2: believe the President wrote I have instructed Secretary of Homeland 30 00:02:18,440 --> 00:02:22,720 Speaker 2: Security Christy Nome that under no circumstances are we going 31 00:02:22,760 --> 00:02:29,440 Speaker 2: to participate in various poorly run Democrat cities with regard 32 00:02:29,480 --> 00:02:34,200 Speaker 2: to their protest in or riots unless and until they 33 00:02:34,320 --> 00:02:38,320 Speaker 2: ask us for help. We will, however, guard, and very 34 00:02:38,360 --> 00:02:42,080 Speaker 2: powerfully so, any and all federal buildings that are being 35 00:02:42,160 --> 00:02:49,120 Speaker 2: attacked by these highly paid lunatics, agitators and insurrectionists. Please 36 00:02:49,160 --> 00:02:51,680 Speaker 2: be aware that I have instructed ice into or Border 37 00:02:51,720 --> 00:02:55,959 Speaker 2: Patrol to be very forceful in this protection of federal property. 38 00:02:56,480 --> 00:02:59,200 Speaker 2: There will be no spitting in the faces of our officers, 39 00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:01,480 Speaker 2: there will be no punch or kicking the headlights of 40 00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:04,200 Speaker 2: our cars, and there'll be no rock or brick throwing 41 00:03:04,240 --> 00:03:09,920 Speaker 2: in our vehicles or at our patriot warriors. If there is, 42 00:03:09,960 --> 00:03:14,080 Speaker 2: those people will suffer an equal to more consequence. In 43 00:03:14,160 --> 00:03:19,400 Speaker 2: the meantime. By copy of this statement, I'm informing local governments, 44 00:03:19,480 --> 00:03:22,480 Speaker 2: as I did in Los Angeles when they were writing 45 00:03:22,560 --> 00:03:24,800 Speaker 2: at the end of the Biden term, that you must 46 00:03:24,840 --> 00:03:28,800 Speaker 2: protect your own state and local property. In addition, it 47 00:03:28,880 --> 00:03:32,800 Speaker 2: is your obligation to also protect our federal property, buildings, parks, 48 00:03:32,840 --> 00:03:36,480 Speaker 2: and everything else. We are there to protect federal property 49 00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:39,320 Speaker 2: only as a backup in that it is local and 50 00:03:39,440 --> 00:03:43,440 Speaker 2: state's responsibility to do so. He goes in and talks 51 00:03:43,440 --> 00:03:50,240 Speaker 2: about an event in Eugene, Oregon. Here's my point. The 52 00:03:50,280 --> 00:03:56,360 Speaker 2: president was questioned on Air Force one. I think he 53 00:03:56,520 --> 00:04:05,760 Speaker 2: was headed somewhere, and the audio of his interview on 54 00:04:05,920 --> 00:04:10,720 Speaker 2: Air Force one is difficult. But I'm going to play 55 00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:17,039 Speaker 2: two quick sound bites and beer with me. One is 56 00:04:17,080 --> 00:04:19,400 Speaker 2: seventeen seconds long and one is thirty four seconds long. 57 00:04:19,440 --> 00:04:22,240 Speaker 2: And then I want to put out a theory that 58 00:04:22,360 --> 00:04:26,880 Speaker 2: I have and I want to get your thoughts on that. 59 00:04:27,440 --> 00:04:30,160 Speaker 2: So this has cut thirty three a. This is the 60 00:04:30,200 --> 00:04:34,920 Speaker 2: president talking about Los Angeles. It's only seventeen seconds long. 61 00:04:34,960 --> 00:04:38,320 Speaker 2: It's difficult here, but I think it will work. Thirty 62 00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:39,239 Speaker 2: three A rob. 63 00:04:39,720 --> 00:04:42,600 Speaker 3: Los Angeles is an example. We went in, we solved it, 64 00:04:43,360 --> 00:04:47,160 Speaker 3: the chief law enforcement officer Los Angeles, and they couldn't 65 00:04:47,160 --> 00:04:49,680 Speaker 3: have done it without the federal government. A week later, 66 00:04:49,720 --> 00:04:51,920 Speaker 3: he said they didn't need the federal government, you know, so. 67 00:04:51,920 --> 00:04:52,440 Speaker 2: We don't want that. 68 00:04:53,040 --> 00:04:54,880 Speaker 3: If they want help, they'll ask. 69 00:04:54,720 --> 00:04:58,840 Speaker 2: But they have to say please. Okay. So he's talking 70 00:04:58,880 --> 00:05:05,360 Speaker 2: there about a locality who would find themselves dealing with protesters. 71 00:05:05,640 --> 00:05:11,360 Speaker 2: They'll have to ask. And then he was asked about 72 00:05:11,680 --> 00:05:16,320 Speaker 2: the Department of Homeland Security funding and the whole question 73 00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:21,360 Speaker 2: here of whether or not the Democrats and Republicans will 74 00:05:21,400 --> 00:05:25,600 Speaker 2: come to an agreement or whether we'll have another government 75 00:05:25,640 --> 00:05:29,040 Speaker 2: short shutdown. We technically, I guess we have a government 76 00:05:29,200 --> 00:05:33,279 Speaker 2: shut down, but it really hasn't impacted much, but will 77 00:05:33,800 --> 00:05:36,680 Speaker 2: Just to be aware of this, this could could blow 78 00:05:36,720 --> 00:05:39,000 Speaker 2: up in the next day or two, depending upon what 79 00:05:39,040 --> 00:05:43,400 Speaker 2: happens when Congress reconvenes tomorrow in Washington. Cut thirty four 80 00:05:43,440 --> 00:05:46,920 Speaker 2: please Rob hech has funding, sir. The Democrats have made 81 00:05:46,960 --> 00:05:47,680 Speaker 2: three demands. 82 00:05:47,720 --> 00:05:49,760 Speaker 4: They say they want no roving patrols. 83 00:05:49,760 --> 00:05:51,760 Speaker 2: They want to establish rules for use of force and 84 00:05:51,800 --> 00:05:54,000 Speaker 2: they want masks on and Buddy can talk about it. 85 00:05:54,000 --> 00:05:55,080 Speaker 1: It's not appropriate yet. 86 00:05:55,120 --> 00:05:56,719 Speaker 3: We have to let a little time go by, but 87 00:05:57,040 --> 00:05:58,000 Speaker 3: we'll talk about it. 88 00:05:58,040 --> 00:06:00,520 Speaker 2: But you know, we want. 89 00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:03,560 Speaker 3: Elected for law enforcement, for the border, for the economy. 90 00:06:03,640 --> 00:06:05,000 Speaker 2: Things I've done a great job with. 91 00:06:05,800 --> 00:06:08,560 Speaker 3: I mean, when you have the lowest crime rate in 92 00:06:08,600 --> 00:06:11,400 Speaker 3: the intu our country recorded in one hundred and twenty 93 00:06:11,440 --> 00:06:15,599 Speaker 3: five years, to be exactly, so I've fulfilled so much. 94 00:06:16,320 --> 00:06:18,920 Speaker 3: We'll have to talk about that over the next. 95 00:06:18,400 --> 00:06:21,880 Speaker 2: Three or four days. Okay, so that's a little bit 96 00:06:21,920 --> 00:06:25,360 Speaker 2: off target, but that's fine. So now my question is this, 97 00:06:26,400 --> 00:06:33,160 Speaker 2: I'm wondering if President Trump is laying the foundation for 98 00:06:33,760 --> 00:06:38,080 Speaker 2: our decision. Obviously, I think we can agree that all 99 00:06:38,120 --> 00:06:40,880 Speaker 2: that has gone down in Minnesota by virtue of the 100 00:06:40,920 --> 00:06:43,400 Speaker 2: fact that he reassigned the people who were in charge. 101 00:06:43,440 --> 00:06:47,480 Speaker 2: Tom Holman is now there are representing the administration and 102 00:06:48,080 --> 00:06:50,680 Speaker 2: has gone in there and has had meetings with the 103 00:06:50,720 --> 00:06:54,359 Speaker 2: Governor of Minnesota, has had meetings with the mayor of Minneapolis. 104 00:06:55,680 --> 00:06:59,560 Speaker 2: And I'm wondering if in the back of Donald Trump's 105 00:06:59,600 --> 00:07:07,400 Speaker 2: mind is a strategy which would say to cities across America, 106 00:07:09,320 --> 00:07:14,600 Speaker 2: we will not go into cities in which they are 107 00:07:14,760 --> 00:07:21,400 Speaker 2: states that are controlled by Democrats, and that he might 108 00:07:21,480 --> 00:07:27,320 Speaker 2: be laying a foundation to essentially say, yeah, if there's 109 00:07:27,320 --> 00:07:31,440 Speaker 2: a Republican governor and we want to go into Miami 110 00:07:31,680 --> 00:07:35,760 Speaker 2: or to Orlando or to Tampa, we won't have the 111 00:07:35,800 --> 00:07:41,480 Speaker 2: problems that we had in Minneapolis, because obviously in Minneapolis, 112 00:07:42,480 --> 00:07:46,520 Speaker 2: certainly the governor up there and the mayor, we're not 113 00:07:46,720 --> 00:07:51,600 Speaker 2: happy with the arrival of ICE at Homeland Security and 114 00:07:51,640 --> 00:07:55,800 Speaker 2: Border Patrol people. Just as here in Boston. I'm sure 115 00:07:55,960 --> 00:07:59,160 Speaker 2: that the City of Boston has made it very clear 116 00:07:59,320 --> 00:08:04,679 Speaker 2: that whatever they would need to do in Boston, what again, 117 00:08:04,840 --> 00:08:07,760 Speaker 2: ICE or Border Patrol would need to do in Boston, 118 00:08:08,280 --> 00:08:14,160 Speaker 2: they would have no cooperation from either state police. I'm 119 00:08:14,160 --> 00:08:18,280 Speaker 2: not saying that the state police individuals, but obviously the 120 00:08:18,320 --> 00:08:23,679 Speaker 2: state police work or under the command ultimately of the governor, 121 00:08:24,160 --> 00:08:26,960 Speaker 2: just as the city police are ultimately under the command 122 00:08:27,120 --> 00:08:33,199 Speaker 2: of mayor WU. And their are other cities Portland, Maine, Portland, Oregon, 123 00:08:33,320 --> 00:08:37,120 Speaker 2: where apparently there was some trouble over the weekend, Seattle, Washington. 124 00:08:37,480 --> 00:08:40,280 Speaker 2: These are all states that one have democratic mayors and 125 00:08:40,400 --> 00:08:45,640 Speaker 2: have democratic governors. Maybe a state like a city like 126 00:08:45,720 --> 00:08:54,920 Speaker 2: Detroit or Chicago Democratic governor, Democratic mayor problems for the 127 00:08:54,960 --> 00:09:00,600 Speaker 2: introduction of Department of Homeland Security personnel. They be ICE 128 00:09:00,640 --> 00:09:05,360 Speaker 2: agents who border patrol. And if the President were to 129 00:09:06,600 --> 00:09:10,240 Speaker 2: go in that direction, would that be the worst thing? 130 00:09:11,240 --> 00:09:18,160 Speaker 2: It would allow the administration to function, I guess, with 131 00:09:18,400 --> 00:09:24,200 Speaker 2: less problems than they are facing in Minnesota. They would 132 00:09:24,280 --> 00:09:28,160 Speaker 2: have in Republican led states, they would have at least 133 00:09:28,200 --> 00:09:32,200 Speaker 2: the backup of the Republican governors, I assume, and they 134 00:09:32,240 --> 00:09:36,120 Speaker 2: would have the backup of the state police in those states, 135 00:09:36,640 --> 00:09:41,600 Speaker 2: which could establish a perimeter and allow ICE and the 136 00:09:41,600 --> 00:09:46,040 Speaker 2: Department of Homeland Security to function more effectively and efficiently 137 00:09:46,240 --> 00:09:52,120 Speaker 2: as they go after cordon criminals. Not people who were 138 00:09:52,120 --> 00:09:57,480 Speaker 2: there and happen to be there and are living within 139 00:09:57,840 --> 00:10:00,000 Speaker 2: confines of the law, but people who have come here 140 00:10:00,400 --> 00:10:03,160 Speaker 2: and by reputation you know they're either gang member MS 141 00:10:03,240 --> 00:10:07,680 Speaker 2: thirteen trenti Agua, or there's somebody who has come here 142 00:10:07,720 --> 00:10:12,120 Speaker 2: with a substantial criminal record. And would there be then 143 00:10:12,200 --> 00:10:18,600 Speaker 2: the secondary impact of some of the more hardened criminals 144 00:10:18,920 --> 00:10:21,600 Speaker 2: if the President made that distinction and said, look for 145 00:10:21,679 --> 00:10:24,520 Speaker 2: us to go into a city like Minneapolis, to go 146 00:10:24,559 --> 00:10:27,800 Speaker 2: into a state like Minnesota, which is governed by a 147 00:10:27,880 --> 00:10:31,360 Speaker 2: democratic mayor and a democratic governor, if they don't want 148 00:10:31,440 --> 00:10:34,880 Speaker 2: us there, although we might have the right to be there. 149 00:10:35,520 --> 00:10:39,640 Speaker 2: And as up cited the US versus Arizona Supreme Court 150 00:10:39,640 --> 00:10:46,199 Speaker 2: decision of twenty twelve, where immigration law is preempted by 151 00:10:46,200 --> 00:10:54,280 Speaker 2: the federal government and you cannot have immigration law enforced 152 00:10:54,440 --> 00:11:00,640 Speaker 2: or not enforced by local authorities, they have to coordinate. 153 00:11:00,760 --> 00:11:04,439 Speaker 2: In my opinion, if you, as I read US versus Arizona, 154 00:11:05,440 --> 00:11:08,320 Speaker 2: and if this ever came up in front of the 155 00:11:08,440 --> 00:11:13,040 Speaker 2: US Supreme Court, I suspect that this court particularly would 156 00:11:13,200 --> 00:11:16,720 Speaker 2: would stand by US versus Arizona, which is the case 157 00:11:16,760 --> 00:11:19,880 Speaker 2: that jan Burwer case from Arizona in twenty ten when 158 00:11:19,880 --> 00:11:24,720 Speaker 2: she tried to impose stronger immigration laws than the federal 159 00:11:24,840 --> 00:11:29,320 Speaker 2: laws existed at the time. So the question would be, 160 00:11:29,640 --> 00:11:35,520 Speaker 2: would that be a tactic that President Trump might decide 161 00:11:35,600 --> 00:11:40,359 Speaker 2: to use one place that he has been successful, irrespective 162 00:11:40,360 --> 00:11:44,120 Speaker 2: of the fact that it is a democratic community, Washington, 163 00:11:44,200 --> 00:11:47,959 Speaker 2: d C. Where even the mayor down there, Mayor Bowser, 164 00:11:47,960 --> 00:11:54,840 Speaker 2: who's a Democrat, again, it is really the President of 165 00:11:54,880 --> 00:11:57,760 Speaker 2: the United States, in effect, would be the governor of Washington, 166 00:11:57,840 --> 00:12:01,600 Speaker 2: d C. So would then say to some of these 167 00:12:01,640 --> 00:12:06,719 Speaker 2: cities that are sanctuary cities or sanctuary states, we will 168 00:12:06,800 --> 00:12:10,040 Speaker 2: leave you alone. We will leave you alone. UH. And 169 00:12:10,200 --> 00:12:15,920 Speaker 2: if there are some bad folks living in other states, 170 00:12:16,240 --> 00:12:18,520 Speaker 2: they might decide, hey, we want to get to a 171 00:12:18,559 --> 00:12:23,560 Speaker 2: sanctuary state and really test sanctuary states. I just wonder 172 00:12:24,120 --> 00:12:27,960 Speaker 2: if if that would diffuse. I don't think you'd see 173 00:12:28,080 --> 00:12:33,640 Speaker 2: riots in Republican led states. I don't think so. We've 174 00:12:33,679 --> 00:12:37,079 Speaker 2: only the worst riots that they did see a little 175 00:12:37,080 --> 00:12:40,560 Speaker 2: bit in Los Angeles, a lot in Minneapolis. Would that 176 00:12:40,640 --> 00:12:44,880 Speaker 2: be a strategy that that he actually could take what 177 00:12:44,920 --> 00:12:48,200 Speaker 2: I would consider to be maybe the high road, uh 178 00:12:48,240 --> 00:12:52,240 Speaker 2: and actually have the benefit of it politically, that the 179 00:12:52,880 --> 00:12:58,320 Speaker 2: crisis and the chaos, these the chaos would be diminished 180 00:12:58,400 --> 00:13:02,160 Speaker 2: or even eliminated. So that's my thought six one, seven, two, five, 181 00:13:02,280 --> 00:13:05,560 Speaker 2: four ten thirty six one seven, nine three one ten thirty. 182 00:13:05,559 --> 00:13:08,000 Speaker 2: The converse of that is for him to continue to 183 00:13:08,080 --> 00:13:10,439 Speaker 2: go into states where he knows he's going to face, 184 00:13:12,400 --> 00:13:18,200 Speaker 2: as he says, agitators but protesters. UH. And and difficulty 185 00:13:18,559 --> 00:13:23,720 Speaker 2: in UH in allowing the Homeland security folks, border patrol 186 00:13:24,880 --> 00:13:27,920 Speaker 2: or ice agents to function effectively. How can you function 187 00:13:28,120 --> 00:13:32,160 Speaker 2: under under those circumstances, you can complete the task unless 188 00:13:32,200 --> 00:13:36,320 Speaker 2: you have cooperation from local authorities. In my opinion, that's 189 00:13:36,400 --> 00:13:38,280 Speaker 2: my thought. I like to try to stay ahead of 190 00:13:38,320 --> 00:13:40,400 Speaker 2: the curve. Please join me and tell me if you 191 00:13:40,440 --> 00:13:42,679 Speaker 2: think that that's a crazy idea, or if you think 192 00:13:42,720 --> 00:13:47,480 Speaker 2: that's something that he now might actually be considering. Six one, seven, two, five, four, 193 00:13:47,559 --> 00:13:49,800 Speaker 2: ten thirty. That is the only line that is open 194 00:13:49,920 --> 00:13:53,360 Speaker 2: right now. The others are tied up. Six one seven, two, five, 195 00:13:53,440 --> 00:13:57,320 Speaker 2: four to ten thirty. Good idea, bad idea? What do 196 00:13:57,360 --> 00:14:01,079 Speaker 2: you think? Coming back on night Side? It's Nightside with 197 00:14:01,280 --> 00:14:07,400 Speaker 2: Dan Ray Boston's news radio. So I like to try 198 00:14:07,440 --> 00:14:11,920 Speaker 2: to think ahead, and that's what I'm doing here. Donald 199 00:14:11,920 --> 00:14:15,400 Speaker 2: Trump has not said this, but would this be a 200 00:14:15,400 --> 00:14:20,880 Speaker 2: strategy which would diffuse the video because obviously politically the 201 00:14:20,920 --> 00:14:24,680 Speaker 2: Republicans realize that what has gone on in Minnesota has 202 00:14:24,760 --> 00:14:30,720 Speaker 2: not benefited them and from a political point, or would 203 00:14:30,760 --> 00:14:34,120 Speaker 2: he be accused of I mean, how could he be 204 00:14:34,160 --> 00:14:37,280 Speaker 2: accused then of saying, well, you're not paying attention to 205 00:14:37,320 --> 00:14:40,120 Speaker 2: all of America. He's gonna be able to say, well, 206 00:14:40,280 --> 00:14:44,080 Speaker 2: not all of America wants my help. Let's see. Let 207 00:14:44,120 --> 00:14:46,040 Speaker 2: me go to Johnny in Boston. See what John says. 208 00:14:46,040 --> 00:14:49,080 Speaker 2: Hey John, Johnny, you will next your first up on nightside. 209 00:14:49,120 --> 00:14:53,440 Speaker 4: Go right ahead, sir Good, mister Ray. 210 00:14:53,560 --> 00:14:53,800 Speaker 1: Thanks. 211 00:14:57,240 --> 00:14:59,320 Speaker 2: Do we just lose you there, Johnny? I hope not. 212 00:15:00,720 --> 00:15:02,320 Speaker 2: Why don't you stick with Johnny and see if you 213 00:15:02,360 --> 00:15:03,960 Speaker 2: can bring him back and we'll try to get him. 214 00:15:04,200 --> 00:15:05,960 Speaker 2: Johnny might have been a little nervous. I don't know. 215 00:15:06,040 --> 00:15:08,680 Speaker 2: Let me go to Laurie and Melrose. Laurie, you're next 216 00:15:08,680 --> 00:15:09,240 Speaker 2: on nightside. 217 00:15:09,320 --> 00:15:11,360 Speaker 1: Welcome right. 218 00:15:11,600 --> 00:15:13,600 Speaker 5: There might be a point to get the heat off 219 00:15:13,720 --> 00:15:16,120 Speaker 5: himself right now, But I'm sorry. 220 00:15:16,400 --> 00:15:17,960 Speaker 1: You're gonna to. 221 00:15:17,800 --> 00:15:20,120 Speaker 5: Look a little bit more at these ice officers and 222 00:15:20,200 --> 00:15:24,800 Speaker 5: what they've been doing. They're not acting like a police officer. 223 00:15:25,280 --> 00:15:28,160 Speaker 5: I have police in my family, and they're not acting 224 00:15:28,280 --> 00:15:32,120 Speaker 5: like your state police family. They are not acting like that. 225 00:15:32,280 --> 00:15:35,800 Speaker 5: They're not doing proper procedures, they're not following the law. 226 00:15:36,480 --> 00:15:38,240 Speaker 5: They're just doing whatever they feel like. 227 00:15:38,960 --> 00:15:42,640 Speaker 2: Well, I think, Laurien, I'm not here to defend what 228 00:15:42,920 --> 00:15:49,920 Speaker 2: happened either to the woman, Miss Good or mister Pretty. 229 00:15:50,480 --> 00:15:53,160 Speaker 2: What I'm saying is, I think they were put into 230 00:15:54,120 --> 00:15:57,480 Speaker 2: a very difficult set of circumstances, and they knew going 231 00:15:57,560 --> 00:16:01,960 Speaker 2: in that Governor Waltz did not want them there, and 232 00:16:02,000 --> 00:16:06,480 Speaker 2: that uh mayor Fry the Minneapolis didn't want them there, 233 00:16:06,560 --> 00:16:09,960 Speaker 2: and once there was normally in a situation like that 234 00:16:10,000 --> 00:16:13,200 Speaker 2: you need local police to basically deal with crowd control, 235 00:16:14,160 --> 00:16:20,760 Speaker 2: and then allowed them to do their assigned tasks. Now you, 236 00:16:20,760 --> 00:16:24,320 Speaker 2: you and I might agree or disagree with what they 237 00:16:24,320 --> 00:16:28,240 Speaker 2: were doing, but they went in there with the intention. 238 00:16:28,440 --> 00:16:34,040 Speaker 5: Not just Minneapolis. They have been going in and doing 239 00:16:34,080 --> 00:16:37,360 Speaker 5: things not the right way. Their maths and they're not 240 00:16:37,560 --> 00:16:40,560 Speaker 5: they're not acting like police officers. They're not well trained. 241 00:16:41,120 --> 00:16:44,040 Speaker 5: They're not like the police. And I know how would 242 00:16:44,040 --> 00:16:47,920 Speaker 5: they do with the. 243 00:16:46,600 --> 00:16:50,840 Speaker 2: But if if those ice agents were listening to us tonight, 244 00:16:50,880 --> 00:16:54,280 Speaker 2: they would say that they're they're very well trained. They 245 00:16:54,320 --> 00:17:00,440 Speaker 2: apparently have been successful in, amongst other places, Washington, DC. 246 00:17:02,280 --> 00:17:06,120 Speaker 2: You know, there's been the only horrific incident that took 247 00:17:06,200 --> 00:17:09,359 Speaker 2: place in Washington, d C. Was this guy shot and 248 00:17:09,440 --> 00:17:14,120 Speaker 2: killed two West Virginia National guardsmen. That's a Republican governor 249 00:17:14,960 --> 00:17:19,320 Speaker 2: who was able to, oh willing to send members of 250 00:17:19,359 --> 00:17:21,679 Speaker 2: the West Virginia National Guard into Washington. 251 00:17:21,680 --> 00:17:25,040 Speaker 5: I think today I don't see this as a Republican 252 00:17:25,119 --> 00:17:30,159 Speaker 5: Democrat thing. I see this as the ice officers going 253 00:17:30,280 --> 00:17:33,600 Speaker 5: too far and going not out, going out for the 254 00:17:33,640 --> 00:17:36,119 Speaker 5: worst of the worst like everybody wanted. And then you 255 00:17:36,160 --> 00:17:40,399 Speaker 5: don't understand and see that how people feel. Trump is 256 00:17:40,400 --> 00:17:44,160 Speaker 5: going to be very surprised because people saw that as 257 00:17:44,240 --> 00:17:46,320 Speaker 5: the worse to worse. Yes, we want to get rid 258 00:17:46,359 --> 00:17:48,720 Speaker 5: of but we don't want to go to every person 259 00:17:48,800 --> 00:17:53,400 Speaker 5: that happens to be hispanic or black or whatever that 260 00:17:53,520 --> 00:17:56,000 Speaker 5: they pull off the street and people walking down the 261 00:17:56,040 --> 00:18:00,480 Speaker 5: street stack questioning them, had no authority to do. So 262 00:18:00,520 --> 00:18:02,600 Speaker 5: they are doing all kinds of things. If you don't 263 00:18:02,600 --> 00:18:05,200 Speaker 5: look at all the news, you don't watch face the nation, 264 00:18:05,359 --> 00:18:08,439 Speaker 5: you don't see all those things. Yeah, I'm sorry, but 265 00:18:08,480 --> 00:18:11,600 Speaker 5: you don't see to be full republic. 266 00:18:11,560 --> 00:18:13,840 Speaker 2: Who are you accusing of not seeing all those things? 267 00:18:14,800 --> 00:18:15,360 Speaker 1: I don't know. 268 00:18:15,440 --> 00:18:17,080 Speaker 5: I mean, you don't seem to to do it. But 269 00:18:17,200 --> 00:18:20,120 Speaker 5: when you talk where you talk, well, you know you're 270 00:18:20,160 --> 00:18:23,160 Speaker 5: talking about these four ice officers and everything. 271 00:18:23,320 --> 00:18:25,560 Speaker 2: Well, the ice officers, well, let me let me be 272 00:18:25,720 --> 00:18:31,280 Speaker 2: very honest. Okay, the ice officers generally find themselves doing 273 00:18:31,359 --> 00:18:36,000 Speaker 2: a difficult job, which is made more difficult by the 274 00:18:36,080 --> 00:18:41,640 Speaker 2: fact that they have no local police backup. Normally, when 275 00:18:41,680 --> 00:18:43,880 Speaker 2: the FBI is going to go in and do a raid, 276 00:18:43,960 --> 00:18:46,119 Speaker 2: or just let's let's deal with the FBI for a moment, 277 00:18:47,080 --> 00:18:51,280 Speaker 2: and they notify the locals. Uh, and the locals will 278 00:18:52,040 --> 00:18:55,199 Speaker 2: cording off a street area. UH. And they go in 279 00:18:55,240 --> 00:18:57,600 Speaker 2: and they do their thing. That's the way it normally works. 280 00:18:58,320 --> 00:19:04,040 Speaker 2: They sent ice officers into Minneapolis, UH, knowing that the 281 00:19:04,080 --> 00:19:08,359 Speaker 2: governor of Minnesota had said we don't want ice here. 282 00:19:08,920 --> 00:19:11,040 Speaker 2: You're familiar with that, I assume, right. 283 00:19:11,440 --> 00:19:15,840 Speaker 5: Oh, yes, right, and the mayor and. 284 00:19:15,840 --> 00:19:19,440 Speaker 2: The mayor of Minneapolis said we don't want As matter 285 00:19:19,440 --> 00:19:22,040 Speaker 2: of fact, he used some more colorful language as to 286 00:19:22,080 --> 00:19:24,920 Speaker 2: what he wanted the ice where he wanted to hear that. 287 00:19:25,840 --> 00:19:27,320 Speaker 1: Okay, I hear everything. 288 00:19:27,359 --> 00:19:29,800 Speaker 5: I don't listen. I don't funnel it one way or 289 00:19:29,800 --> 00:19:30,120 Speaker 5: the other. 290 00:19:31,080 --> 00:19:33,320 Speaker 2: I'm just trying to explain to you that don't blame 291 00:19:33,359 --> 00:19:39,160 Speaker 2: the ice officers. In many instances, they have overreacted, There's 292 00:19:39,200 --> 00:19:42,000 Speaker 2: no question about that. But they were put into an 293 00:19:42,040 --> 00:19:43,679 Speaker 2: impossible situation. 294 00:19:44,160 --> 00:19:47,399 Speaker 5: They could not how many police officers are there? 295 00:19:48,480 --> 00:19:49,600 Speaker 1: How many know that fact? 296 00:19:49,640 --> 00:19:50,680 Speaker 4: You must know that fact? 297 00:19:50,800 --> 00:19:54,040 Speaker 2: Three no, no, no, no, no, there is some. 298 00:19:55,920 --> 00:19:58,200 Speaker 5: Thousands police. 299 00:19:58,320 --> 00:20:01,720 Speaker 2: Okay. So you asked me a question, and I wanted 300 00:20:01,760 --> 00:20:04,560 Speaker 2: to answer your question, your numbers are correct. There are 301 00:20:04,600 --> 00:20:09,320 Speaker 2: three thousand ICE officers and Minnesota Minneapolis has a small, 302 00:20:09,760 --> 00:20:15,800 Speaker 2: small police department comparatively of only six hundred officers. Yes, Now, 303 00:20:16,720 --> 00:20:21,240 Speaker 2: what I'm saying is if if Minneapolis cannot provide security, 304 00:20:21,359 --> 00:20:24,680 Speaker 2: or if they're not willing to provide backup security, then 305 00:20:24,800 --> 00:20:29,280 Speaker 2: maybe the tactic for the ICE is to do exactly 306 00:20:29,320 --> 00:20:32,080 Speaker 2: what the Democratic leaders have asked them to do, and 307 00:20:32,119 --> 00:20:34,320 Speaker 2: that is to get the heck out of the city. 308 00:20:34,359 --> 00:20:36,040 Speaker 2: And I use the word hecked. 309 00:20:37,359 --> 00:20:39,800 Speaker 5: Right, So they should be many people. 310 00:20:40,280 --> 00:20:42,959 Speaker 2: You're disagreeing with me or agreeing with me, is what 311 00:20:42,960 --> 00:20:43,920 Speaker 2: I'm trying to unders. 312 00:20:44,440 --> 00:20:47,639 Speaker 5: I don't, I don't. I just say that they're not 313 00:20:47,840 --> 00:20:49,720 Speaker 5: following you. 314 00:20:49,880 --> 00:20:50,000 Speaker 4: Mad. 315 00:20:50,160 --> 00:20:54,800 Speaker 5: You make your point, Laurie, you have made your points. 316 00:20:55,080 --> 00:21:00,720 Speaker 2: If they're not, I've heard them, Laurie, Laurie. Yeah, they're 317 00:21:00,840 --> 00:21:03,439 Speaker 2: arresting all the Hispanic and all the black people. You 318 00:21:03,520 --> 00:21:05,520 Speaker 2: can be a matter of fact, I think they tried 319 00:21:05,520 --> 00:21:09,760 Speaker 2: to arrest most of the Minnesota Vikings football team. Do 320 00:21:10,240 --> 00:21:13,280 Speaker 2: you think that, in fact, that that is what ICE 321 00:21:13,320 --> 00:21:15,800 Speaker 2: officers going in there to do. They're going in there 322 00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:18,600 Speaker 2: to do what they are commissioned to do. Which is 323 00:21:18,640 --> 00:21:22,080 Speaker 2: to find certain individuals, and they're facing angry crowds and 324 00:21:22,119 --> 00:21:26,200 Speaker 2: angry mobs. It is not a pleasant situation for people 325 00:21:26,240 --> 00:21:30,280 Speaker 2: in Minneapolis. It's not a pleasant situation for the Ice officers. 326 00:21:30,480 --> 00:21:34,520 Speaker 2: And I'm suggesting that maybe the best tactic to be 327 00:21:34,640 --> 00:21:38,800 Speaker 2: used is to withdraw the Ice officers and the Border 328 00:21:38,800 --> 00:21:43,480 Speaker 2: Patrol agents three thousand strong for Minneapolis, and let Minneapolis 329 00:21:43,600 --> 00:21:48,000 Speaker 2: deal with the situation. I suspect that the demonstrations would 330 00:21:48,119 --> 00:21:51,399 Speaker 2: end forthwith I took you and I'm gone three minutes 331 00:21:51,400 --> 00:21:56,440 Speaker 2: into my newscast, Laurie, thank you for calling a conversations. Actually, 332 00:21:56,480 --> 00:21:58,560 Speaker 2: I'm going to let you go to thank you. Bye. 333 00:21:59,040 --> 00:22:03,800 Speaker 2: We'll be back side.

For the 346 00:22:50,000 --> 00:22:53,840 Speaker 1: president to back off a little bit, I think it's 347 00:22:53,880 --> 00:22:59,080 Speaker 1: a good thing for him and his administration. See if 348 00:22:59,080 --> 00:23:03,720 Speaker 1: the Minneapolis can handle what ICE has been trying to do. 349 00:23:04,160 --> 00:23:06,600 Speaker 1: Those Ice officers are out there doing a very tough job. 350 00:23:07,160 --> 00:23:11,880 Speaker 1: And if people want to, uh make comments on their 351 00:23:12,000 --> 00:23:15,200 Speaker 1: training and their tactics and stuff like that, when why 352 00:23:15,200 --> 00:23:17,800 Speaker 1: don't you suit up and go becom an ICE officer 353 00:23:17,880 --> 00:23:18,840 Speaker 1: and see for yourself. 354 00:23:19,240 --> 00:23:22,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think they would put in a in a 355 00:23:22,359 --> 00:23:26,720 Speaker 2: in a really horrible position. I know that there was 356 00:23:27,880 --> 00:23:30,920 Speaker 2: there were ice raids in Boston, uh and in and 357 00:23:30,920 --> 00:23:33,920 Speaker 2: and in communities around Boston. And I don't think they're 358 00:23:34,000 --> 00:23:39,639 Speaker 2: Ice officers or Border patrol agents were looking for people 359 00:23:39,680 --> 00:23:42,840 Speaker 2: who were minority and asking them to see their papers 360 00:23:42,840 --> 00:23:44,360 Speaker 2: and all of that. I mean, I just. 361 00:23:44,280 --> 00:23:45,359 Speaker 1: Think I agree. 362 00:23:45,960 --> 00:23:49,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, but that's what lower view of it is. And 363 00:23:49,600 --> 00:23:51,600 Speaker 2: all I'm just saying is that. 364 00:23:51,000 --> 00:23:53,159 Speaker 1: That's very unfortunate, and that's very unfortunate. 365 00:23:53,720 --> 00:23:55,680 Speaker 4: Well, I think there were a lot of unfortunate. 366 00:23:55,240 --> 00:23:57,760 Speaker 2: Who buy into what they see and then you had 367 00:23:57,800 --> 00:24:03,679 Speaker 2: these horrific incidents where a woman stops across in the 368 00:24:03,680 --> 00:24:06,880 Speaker 2: middle of the street and the ice officers I thought 369 00:24:06,920 --> 00:24:11,040 Speaker 2: were overly aggressive. They should have, you know, told her 370 00:24:11,440 --> 00:24:14,160 Speaker 2: put the car in park, turn off the ignition, dealt 371 00:24:14,240 --> 00:24:17,680 Speaker 2: with her in a much less confrontational way, and if 372 00:24:17,720 --> 00:24:20,879 Speaker 2: she drove away, they got her license plate number and 373 00:24:20,960 --> 00:24:23,000 Speaker 2: then they could go and arrest her later. 374 00:24:24,359 --> 00:24:28,240 Speaker 1: But sir, I appreciate that perspective, and I understand where 375 00:24:28,240 --> 00:24:32,919 Speaker 1: you're coming from with that. Here's the issue. It's in 376 00:24:33,119 --> 00:24:39,400 Speaker 1: fact that the democratic run cities were to conpentulate and 377 00:24:39,440 --> 00:24:43,200 Speaker 1: cooperate with the federal government, whom, by the way, they 378 00:24:43,280 --> 00:24:48,600 Speaker 1: have to go to when they want funding. Okay, at 379 00:24:48,680 --> 00:24:54,919 Speaker 1: least have the local police there to cover off wherever 380 00:24:54,960 --> 00:24:58,000 Speaker 1: the Ice agents are going to perform their raid and 381 00:24:58,040 --> 00:25:01,000 Speaker 1: perform their duty capture whoever they captured. 382 00:25:03,280 --> 00:25:06,119 Speaker 2: I understand what you're asking for. But but do you 383 00:25:06,160 --> 00:25:07,400 Speaker 2: think the government. 384 00:25:07,280 --> 00:25:08,400 Speaker 1: Down on the incident. 385 00:25:08,680 --> 00:25:11,119 Speaker 2: Right? But but do you think that Governor Walls or 386 00:25:11,200 --> 00:25:13,760 Speaker 2: Mayor Fry had any interest in doing that. No, they 387 00:25:13,800 --> 00:25:16,840 Speaker 2: made it very clear what their position was, and it 388 00:25:17,080 --> 00:25:18,160 Speaker 2: made it very clear here. 389 00:25:20,280 --> 00:25:23,760 Speaker 1: And then for the result of that, Mayor Walls, Governor 390 00:25:23,800 --> 00:25:28,639 Speaker 1: Walls and Mayor Fry have blood on their hands because 391 00:25:28,640 --> 00:25:31,119 Speaker 1: it's in fact that they directed their police department to 392 00:25:31,200 --> 00:25:33,359 Speaker 1: assist the ICE officers. 393 00:25:33,680 --> 00:25:40,040 Speaker 2: Well, I disagree without. 394 00:25:40,000 --> 00:25:41,240 Speaker 1: Okay, go ahead, all. 395 00:25:41,160 --> 00:25:45,520 Speaker 2: Due respect, I don't think that Mayor Walls, or rather 396 00:25:45,840 --> 00:25:47,960 Speaker 2: Governor Walls or Mayor Fry have blood in their hands. 397 00:25:48,000 --> 00:25:50,679 Speaker 2: I think they made a mistake. I think they politically 398 00:25:50,680 --> 00:25:54,560 Speaker 2: said we're not going to cooperate with ICE, uh and 399 00:25:54,560 --> 00:25:56,840 Speaker 2: and I think that was the wrong decision for them 400 00:25:56,880 --> 00:26:02,040 Speaker 2: to make. But I do think that ICE will put 401 00:26:02,119 --> 00:26:10,720 Speaker 2: in it complicated their their tasks. UH. Incredibly. I think 402 00:26:10,760 --> 00:26:16,359 Speaker 2: that the fact that the President has relieved the officer 403 00:26:16,600 --> 00:26:18,919 Speaker 2: who was in charge there and has put Tom Homan 404 00:26:19,000 --> 00:26:23,200 Speaker 2: there is an acknowledgment that that they didn't plan it properly. 405 00:26:23,240 --> 00:26:26,280 Speaker 2: They didn't understand the consequences. I'm just saying they need 406 00:26:26,320 --> 00:26:29,040 Speaker 2: to make an adjustment, and I'm wondering if the adjustment 407 00:26:29,160 --> 00:26:32,520 Speaker 2: might be. Hey, if Governor Abbott wants us to go 408 00:26:32,600 --> 00:26:36,760 Speaker 2: into Texas and uh, he will provide Texas Rangers support, 409 00:26:37,080 --> 00:26:39,600 Speaker 2: logistical support, we will go in there and we will 410 00:26:39,600 --> 00:26:42,760 Speaker 2: get some some bad people, uh and we will do 411 00:26:42,800 --> 00:26:47,679 Speaker 2: our job in conjunction with with Texas. If if the 412 00:26:47,720 --> 00:26:51,160 Speaker 2: governor of Tennessee. Governor Lee wants to help us, wants 413 00:26:51,200 --> 00:26:54,640 Speaker 2: to work with us, will work, but you know, I 414 00:26:54,640 --> 00:26:58,199 Speaker 2: I don't know if people will. I'm I'm sick and 415 00:26:58,280 --> 00:27:04,000 Speaker 2: tired of seeing ice officers harassed and spit at. They're 416 00:27:04,000 --> 00:27:06,840 Speaker 2: not bad people, those are Those are individuals who are 417 00:27:07,040 --> 00:27:10,720 Speaker 2: doing what their superiors are telling them to do. And 418 00:27:11,040 --> 00:27:14,280 Speaker 2: in terms of wearing their masks, I wanted to say 419 00:27:14,280 --> 00:27:18,480 Speaker 2: to Laurie that these people are being doxed, their names 420 00:27:18,640 --> 00:27:22,480 Speaker 2: are being circulated. You know, that's they're being asked to 421 00:27:22,480 --> 00:27:26,600 Speaker 2: do a tough job, and they are exposing themselves and 422 00:27:26,680 --> 00:27:30,720 Speaker 2: their families to some potential retaliation. And I can understand that. 423 00:27:30,880 --> 00:27:33,080 Speaker 2: I think they should wear body cameras because I think 424 00:27:33,119 --> 00:27:37,480 Speaker 2: that actually helps police officers. If they wear body cameras, 425 00:27:37,480 --> 00:27:40,359 Speaker 2: people are going to be a little less anxious to 426 00:27:40,400 --> 00:27:42,760 Speaker 2: throw f bombs at them and spit in their face 427 00:27:43,080 --> 00:27:44,639 Speaker 2: if they know they're going to be recorded. 428 00:27:48,119 --> 00:27:51,879 Speaker 1: I have the opportunity I want to say, God bless 429 00:27:51,960 --> 00:27:54,399 Speaker 1: the ice officers that out there doing their job. I 430 00:27:54,440 --> 00:27:59,000 Speaker 1: hope they're listening and law and want to must prevail everywhere. 431 00:28:02,520 --> 00:28:06,560 Speaker 2: A lot of Democrats last time, a lot of Democratic 432 00:28:06,560 --> 00:28:09,760 Speaker 2: governors were defying the federal government. It was over issues 433 00:28:09,800 --> 00:28:13,440 Speaker 2: of integrating schools in places like Alabama and Mississippi and Arkansas, 434 00:28:13,920 --> 00:28:19,800 Speaker 2: and Democratic presidents federalized troops uh and made sure those 435 00:28:19,800 --> 00:28:23,000 Speaker 2: schools were integrated in the nineteen sixties when governors like 436 00:28:23,080 --> 00:28:28,800 Speaker 2: Farbus and George George Wallace, we're standing in the school 437 00:28:28,800 --> 00:28:33,040 Speaker 2: house stores. So this situation is not precisely analogous, but 438 00:28:33,720 --> 00:28:38,840 Speaker 2: it's it's immigration is an area that is federal authority 439 00:28:39,320 --> 00:28:42,440 Speaker 2: must prevail. In my opinion, Johnny, this is your first time. 440 00:28:42,480 --> 00:28:45,400 Speaker 2: All this is your first time. No sir, no sir, 441 00:28:45,520 --> 00:28:50,400 Speaker 2: do me a favor, call more often.

This guy I hope is going to 448 00:29:09,960 --> 00:29:10,640 Speaker 4: get impeached. 449 00:29:11,000 --> 00:29:13,280 Speaker 2: I know you, I know you want it to be impeached. 450 00:29:13,640 --> 00:29:15,040 Speaker 2: The problem I wanted. 451 00:29:14,760 --> 00:29:17,440 Speaker 4: To and I want that guy to put up private 452 00:29:17,480 --> 00:29:19,840 Speaker 4: life and face his problems.

I don't feel 456 00:29:30,920 --> 00:29:31,920 Speaker 4: sorry for them at all. 457 00:29:32,760 --> 00:29:34,200 Speaker 2: I see, Well, you're probably not a. 458 00:29:34,080 --> 00:29:36,080 Speaker 4: Bit who did so many. 459 00:29:36,120 --> 00:29:43,320 Speaker 2: Why don't you give him the plank?

Who go? Let me go to 464 00:29:54,120 --> 00:29:56,680 Speaker 2: Patrick down in DC. Hey, Patrick, welcome? How are you sir? 465 00:29:57,600 --> 00:30:02,840 Speaker 6: I am all charge? Because right that's the right idea, man, 466 00:30:03,040 --> 00:30:04,280 Speaker 6: I am fully agree. 467 00:30:04,360 --> 00:30:05,640 Speaker 1: I like your idea. 468 00:30:06,080 --> 00:30:08,600 Speaker 6: I think politically that's the right thing to do. I'm 469 00:30:08,760 --> 00:30:09,720 Speaker 6: enthused about it. 470 00:30:09,720 --> 00:30:10,200 Speaker 1: It's about it. 471 00:30:10,320 --> 00:30:12,800 Speaker 6: In fact, he would be great if they actually did 472 00:30:12,840 --> 00:30:14,520 Speaker 6: that morning. You know what I mean? 473 00:30:14,840 --> 00:30:17,040 Speaker 2: Well, we'll see. I mean, I don't know. I mean 474 00:30:17,080 --> 00:30:19,400 Speaker 2: I think he's laying a foundation here. I mean, what's 475 00:30:19,400 --> 00:30:21,840 Speaker 2: he want to do? Continue to send them? You know, 476 00:30:21,960 --> 00:30:27,920 Speaker 2: once the the the activity in Minnesota blew up, that 477 00:30:28,000 --> 00:30:31,280 Speaker 2: group is if he decides to go into Illinois tomorrow. 478 00:30:31,760 --> 00:30:35,480 Speaker 2: Minnesota is a neighbor state, you know, I think that 479 00:30:35,960 --> 00:30:39,480 Speaker 2: everybody's going to stay in Minnesota. No, I think. I 480 00:30:39,520 --> 00:30:43,680 Speaker 2: don't know. I'm just wondering. I'm actually wondering out loud 481 00:30:43,680 --> 00:30:45,320 Speaker 2: of this is what he's thinking. I like to be 482 00:30:45,360 --> 00:30:47,320 Speaker 2: ahead of the curve. As you know, Patrick, you are 483 00:30:47,360 --> 00:30:48,920 Speaker 2: a guy who likes to be ahead of the curve 484 00:30:48,960 --> 00:30:52,240 Speaker 2: as well. You talk about civil defense a lot, and 485 00:30:52,240 --> 00:30:56,240 Speaker 2: and I talk about you know what, politics, what what 486 00:30:56,320 --> 00:31:00,680 Speaker 2: the politicians might do. I think that would be a 487 00:31:00,680 --> 00:31:03,440 Speaker 2: a strategy that now he'd be criticized to say, well, 488 00:31:03,440 --> 00:31:07,080 Speaker 2: wait a second, how come you're only going into Republican states. 489 00:31:07,440 --> 00:31:09,840 Speaker 2: Then he might say, well, the Democrats don't want me, 490 00:31:09,880 --> 00:31:12,680 Speaker 2: and I'm trying to be a utifying president. I don't 491 00:31:12,680 --> 00:31:15,720 Speaker 2: want to see people hurt. I think there would be 492 00:31:15,760 --> 00:31:17,480 Speaker 2: a lot of people who would welcome that. 493 00:31:18,520 --> 00:31:23,280 Speaker 7: I think that is a reasonable approach to get the 494 00:31:23,400 --> 00:31:27,160 Speaker 7: other states, for the other cities or the democratic cities, 495 00:31:27,200 --> 00:31:28,840 Speaker 7: to say, hey, what about us? 496 00:31:28,880 --> 00:31:29,800 Speaker 6: What about us? 497 00:31:29,960 --> 00:31:30,160 Speaker 2: Yeah? 498 00:31:30,280 --> 00:31:32,920 Speaker 6: I think that is a much better approach. Oh, I 499 00:31:32,920 --> 00:31:35,320 Speaker 6: would really like to see that happen. That would be 500 00:31:35,360 --> 00:31:37,840 Speaker 6: really great. I'm with you on that, but I think 501 00:31:37,880 --> 00:31:40,480 Speaker 6: you hit it on the head. 502 00:31:41,360 --> 00:31:47,400 Speaker 2: I read a story today that for the first time, 503 00:31:47,520 --> 00:31:50,200 Speaker 2: and I don't know how many years, twenty twenty five years. 504 00:31:50,840 --> 00:31:54,400 Speaker 2: In the first three weeks of January, there have been 505 00:31:54,400 --> 00:31:58,360 Speaker 2: no homicides in Washington DC. Are you aware of that? 506 00:32:00,720 --> 00:32:04,640 Speaker 6: I don't know, because kank Christmas. I mean they as 507 00:32:04,720 --> 00:32:07,400 Speaker 6: the holidays came, you know, I stay out of there, 508 00:32:07,440 --> 00:32:11,240 Speaker 6: and I've been on the phone, and today I've been 509 00:32:11,280 --> 00:32:14,280 Speaker 6: on the phone into the city. There's the problem of 510 00:32:14,560 --> 00:32:18,080 Speaker 6: you have you know, a four lane road and which 511 00:32:18,120 --> 00:32:20,040 Speaker 6: you have is one and a half lanes? 512 00:32:20,800 --> 00:32:23,000 Speaker 2: Right? No, I had it, no, but I just didn't 513 00:32:23,000 --> 00:32:25,560 Speaker 2: know if that has been publicized in Washington. I heard 514 00:32:25,560 --> 00:32:29,200 Speaker 2: that reported today. I don't know. I know that in 515 00:32:29,280 --> 00:32:35,760 Speaker 2: Boston we have the last few years done pretty well 516 00:32:35,800 --> 00:32:41,000 Speaker 2: in terms of cutting down homicides. Our homicide numbers have 517 00:32:41,080 --> 00:32:44,520 Speaker 2: been like in the low thirties, although last year was 518 00:32:44,560 --> 00:32:48,520 Speaker 2: a bit of a bump upwards. I don't know how 519 00:32:48,560 --> 00:32:52,280 Speaker 2: many homicides happen in Washington d C. I know that 520 00:32:52,400 --> 00:32:57,520 Speaker 2: Chicago leads the league and homicide. Sadly, it seems that 521 00:32:57,520 --> 00:32:58,160 Speaker 2: there's crime. 522 00:32:58,360 --> 00:33:01,040 Speaker 6: Crime is crime, and when all it comes and it 523 00:33:01,040 --> 00:33:04,480 Speaker 6: gets cold and it gets darker earlier, you may not 524 00:33:04,560 --> 00:33:06,960 Speaker 6: see it. It may not get reported. That's what I'm 525 00:33:06,960 --> 00:33:07,480 Speaker 6: going to say. 526 00:33:07,600 --> 00:33:10,080 Speaker 2: Got you Okay, well see if you can check that 527 00:33:10,160 --> 00:33:11,880 Speaker 2: out for I'd be interested. 528 00:33:12,840 --> 00:33:14,480 Speaker 6: I'm gonna go in there and I'm gonna find out. 529 00:33:14,480 --> 00:33:17,080 Speaker 6: But remember they also can just really quickly go over 530 00:33:17,120 --> 00:33:19,480 Speaker 6: to the DC line and do it in Prince George's county. 531 00:33:19,840 --> 00:33:22,960 Speaker 2: That's true, that's true. Washington is not a big Washington 532 00:33:23,000 --> 00:33:28,000 Speaker 2: is like Boston, a relatively small city geographically. Patrick, thank 533 00:33:28,040 --> 00:33:30,200 Speaker 2: you for the support. As always, we will talk again, 534 00:33:30,360 --> 00:33:32,840 Speaker 2: thank you, sir, Yes, thank you very much. So we 535 00:33:32,880 --> 00:33:40,200 Speaker 2: go to Mark in Austin. Mark next on nightside. Welcome Mark, right, 536 00:33:40,280 --> 00:33:44,360 Speaker 2: Mick you're there dry, Yes, Mick, I'm sorry, I thought 537 00:33:44,360 --> 00:33:46,520 Speaker 2: it said Mark. I misread it. Mike, go red ahead. 538 00:33:46,520 --> 00:33:50,840 Speaker 8: I'm sorry you Dan, I just caught you about the 539 00:33:50,880 --> 00:33:53,200 Speaker 8: last half hours. So what you're saying are well trained. 540 00:33:53,640 --> 00:33:57,120 Speaker 8: I don't believe these guys are well trained, not from 541 00:33:57,160 --> 00:33:58,920 Speaker 8: what I see on TV. I mean, the guy is 542 00:33:58,960 --> 00:34:01,480 Speaker 8: standing in front of her. Uh, at least don't do that. 543 00:34:01,680 --> 00:34:05,720 Speaker 8: And the way they ambush, how come they can't be 544 00:34:05,880 --> 00:34:08,360 Speaker 8: more like the US Marshals When they go after fugitives, 545 00:34:08,440 --> 00:34:11,200 Speaker 8: they commit at night, they target someone, they find them 546 00:34:11,560 --> 00:34:13,720 Speaker 8: a little reconnaissance and they go and get them. 547 00:34:14,080 --> 00:34:16,719 Speaker 2: Well, they commit at night. They did a red in Chicago, 548 00:34:16,840 --> 00:34:22,239 Speaker 2: you might remember, with helicopters at night, and Chicago was 549 00:34:22,360 --> 00:34:25,560 Speaker 2: very upset with them working under the cover of darkness 550 00:34:26,400 --> 00:34:29,799 Speaker 2: that apparent. I'm not sure how effective a rate it was. 551 00:34:30,880 --> 00:34:34,040 Speaker 2: It's a it's a difficult it's a difficult job. Generally, 552 00:34:34,040 --> 00:34:37,840 Speaker 2: the US marshalls come in, uh, and they they come in, 553 00:34:40,120 --> 00:34:43,440 Speaker 2: they don't come in with high visibility. They they come 554 00:34:43,480 --> 00:34:47,719 Speaker 2: in with very effectively, and they grab somebody and and 555 00:34:47,840 --> 00:34:49,279 Speaker 2: they're and they're out. 556 00:34:51,440 --> 00:34:54,000 Speaker 8: It seems like these people parading into town and the 557 00:34:54,000 --> 00:34:57,200 Speaker 8: people are waiting for them. But also, you know, you 558 00:34:57,280 --> 00:34:59,279 Speaker 8: mentioned they get the worst of the worst. But here 559 00:34:59,320 --> 00:35:02,319 Speaker 8: in Boston where I'm from. But uh, you know, they 560 00:35:02,360 --> 00:35:04,799 Speaker 8: get the girl from Toughs or a high school kid 561 00:35:04,800 --> 00:35:07,520 Speaker 8: out in Hudson grabbing those people. 562 00:35:07,600 --> 00:35:10,160 Speaker 2: Believe me, they've gotten well, well, let me just say this. 563 00:35:11,080 --> 00:35:15,880 Speaker 2: If you've listened to my show, I was critical of them, uh, 564 00:35:16,000 --> 00:35:19,279 Speaker 2: you know, taking the high school kid, and I think 565 00:35:19,360 --> 00:35:23,880 Speaker 2: it was Milford, if I'm not mistaken. Not somewhere ye, Milford, 566 00:35:24,560 --> 00:35:28,400 Speaker 2: and I was criticizing. I criticized them just the optics 567 00:35:28,560 --> 00:35:31,319 Speaker 2: of the woman from Toughs, which shows to me that 568 00:35:31,400 --> 00:35:37,480 Speaker 2: they weren't thinking through. However, However, I have seen certainly 569 00:35:37,560 --> 00:35:41,799 Speaker 2: reports in the Boston Herald, amongst others, that seems to 570 00:35:42,000 --> 00:35:45,759 Speaker 2: publicize the information more than the Globe does that they 571 00:35:45,840 --> 00:35:49,600 Speaker 2: are arresting some people who were here and either convicted 572 00:35:49,760 --> 00:35:54,000 Speaker 2: of or charged with a much more you know, serious car. 573 00:35:54,239 --> 00:35:57,920 Speaker 2: I mean, the woman from from Toughs University was a 574 00:35:57,960 --> 00:36:01,200 Speaker 2: co signer of an editorial in some time of student newspaper, 575 00:36:02,600 --> 00:36:06,520 Speaker 2: and you get no, well, you get no argument from 576 00:36:06,520 --> 00:36:09,080 Speaker 2: me on that. The idea of the kid from Milford, 577 00:36:09,400 --> 00:36:13,000 Speaker 2: they apparently were looking for his father, and they got him, 578 00:36:13,600 --> 00:36:14,920 Speaker 2: as I understand. 579 00:36:17,320 --> 00:36:17,839 Speaker 8: For a month. 580 00:36:17,960 --> 00:36:20,839 Speaker 2: Yeah, well, he I think ended up. I think though 581 00:36:21,040 --> 00:36:24,040 Speaker 2: the woman from Tufts ended up in Louisiana, the kid 582 00:36:24,080 --> 00:36:28,880 Speaker 2: from Milford ended up at the Burlington location. And I 583 00:36:28,920 --> 00:36:31,799 Speaker 2: believe that there were at least two Congressmen, Moulton and 584 00:36:31,920 --> 00:36:34,600 Speaker 2: Auchincloss went up and visited him. I don't think he 585 00:36:34,680 --> 00:36:38,080 Speaker 2: was moved out of state, that particularly on. 586 00:36:38,080 --> 00:36:40,279 Speaker 8: A concrete floor for a couple of weeks. 587 00:36:40,400 --> 00:36:43,520 Speaker 2: And yeah, none of it, none of it was helpful 588 00:36:43,560 --> 00:36:47,239 Speaker 2: to them, that's for sure. It was totally counterproductive. I mean, 589 00:36:47,880 --> 00:36:50,359 Speaker 2: I don't know how to describe it. It's almost as 590 00:36:50,440 --> 00:36:55,719 Speaker 2: if they wanted to. And by the way, I want 591 00:36:55,719 --> 00:36:58,440 Speaker 2: to see full reporting. I want to see and it's 592 00:36:58,520 --> 00:37:00,799 Speaker 2: up to the administration to really least a list of 593 00:37:00,920 --> 00:37:06,040 Speaker 2: names who have been taken into custody, how many people 594 00:37:06,880 --> 00:37:10,879 Speaker 2: have left the country voluntarily. Let's see the results. We're 595 00:37:10,920 --> 00:37:13,799 Speaker 2: not seeing. We're not seeing results, which leads to the 596 00:37:13,840 --> 00:37:17,759 Speaker 2: impression that the only people who are being deported are 597 00:37:18,000 --> 00:37:21,040 Speaker 2: are attempted to be deported a high school students and 598 00:37:21,120 --> 00:37:22,960 Speaker 2: graduate students that are at like. 599 00:37:22,960 --> 00:37:27,680 Speaker 8: Tufts, Right, Well, that's what I hear locally. If the 600 00:37:27,719 --> 00:37:30,200 Speaker 8: president was smart, which I don't think he is, he'd 601 00:37:30,280 --> 00:37:33,200 Speaker 8: get the worst. People will be lining up in the streets. 602 00:37:33,200 --> 00:37:36,040 Speaker 8: I wanted town A two years ago, charity these guys 603 00:37:36,080 --> 00:37:38,680 Speaker 8: on rapists and drug dale. 604 00:37:38,840 --> 00:37:45,040 Speaker 2: Absolutely, yeah, absolutely, I'm not saying that everybody. I think, 605 00:37:45,080 --> 00:37:46,920 Speaker 2: no matter what Trump did, there's a lot of people 606 00:37:46,920 --> 00:37:49,919 Speaker 2: out there who just don't like Trump and that's never 607 00:37:49,960 --> 00:37:52,960 Speaker 2: going to change. That's never going to change. Those decisions 608 00:37:53,000 --> 00:37:55,680 Speaker 2: and those thoughts. Like talking to a Yankees fan about 609 00:37:55,760 --> 00:37:58,560 Speaker 2: rooting for the Red Sox, they'll root for the National 610 00:37:58,680 --> 00:38:01,279 Speaker 2: League team against the Red Sox because they hate the 611 00:38:01,320 --> 00:38:05,520 Speaker 2: Red SOX more than than they like the nationally nastley 612 00:38:06,040 --> 00:38:09,800 Speaker 2: you know. So anyway, look, thank you Mick. I'm sorry 613 00:38:09,800 --> 00:38:13,920 Speaker 2: to have misidentified you early on. I'm misreaded and like 614 00:38:14,160 --> 00:38:15,359 Speaker 2: nice to have you back on the show. 615 00:38:16,800 --> 00:38:18,279 Speaker 8: I like to to do a quick shout out to 616 00:38:18,320 --> 00:38:20,439 Speaker 8: Greg and Dorchester.

We're 628 00:38:54,360 --> 00:38:57,480 Speaker 2: gonna go where we are welcomed. That's my thought. Has 629 00:38:57,520 --> 00:38:59,920 Speaker 2: he laid the foundation to that strategy? Back on my 630 00:39:00,120 --> 00:39:00,680 Speaker 2: side after this
