1 00:00:06,000 --> 00:00:09,920 Speaker 1: John, Aaron and Oak River Faith on your talkback or 2 00:00:09,960 --> 00:00:12,039 Speaker 1: your topic there hard work. 3 00:00:12,200 --> 00:00:14,680 Speaker 2: Have you seen what SpaceX guys have been doing. The 4 00:00:14,720 --> 00:00:17,240 Speaker 2: yard isn't lost. Yeah, we just need the right incentives. 5 00:00:19,920 --> 00:00:22,560 Speaker 2: Wiped out a bit last hour Tower three here on 6 00:00:22,600 --> 00:00:25,360 Speaker 2: Twin Cities News Talks. Colin from Alpha News. We'll be 7 00:00:25,400 --> 00:00:30,040 Speaker 2: joining the show at eight thirty this morning. Disneyland a 8 00:00:30,120 --> 00:00:35,120 Speaker 2: handmade on Disney Plus just a fantastic documentary archival footage 9 00:00:35,880 --> 00:00:39,159 Speaker 2: of the park being built, and just stunned at what 10 00:00:39,479 --> 00:00:42,960 Speaker 2: they were able to accomplish in such a short period 11 00:00:42,960 --> 00:00:44,960 Speaker 2: of time. It was just absolutely amazing. But it was 12 00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:48,680 Speaker 2: a different time. Our lives have gotten easier to our 13 00:00:48,720 --> 00:00:52,200 Speaker 2: own detriment, and we've lost a lot of the work 14 00:00:52,200 --> 00:00:55,960 Speaker 2: ethic that enabled the ability to actually go and get 15 00:00:55,960 --> 00:00:58,440 Speaker 2: something done in a short period of time and of 16 00:00:58,480 --> 00:00:59,920 Speaker 2: good quality as well. 17 00:01:00,040 --> 00:01:04,600 Speaker 3: Oh hey, John, maybe the reason just Disneyland was being 18 00:01:04,640 --> 00:01:08,240 Speaker 3: able to build the way you're talking about is the 19 00:01:08,280 --> 00:01:10,479 Speaker 3: fact then they didn't have a bunch of liberals telling 20 00:01:10,560 --> 00:01:15,679 Speaker 3: that children you're special, you're special, and instead people had 21 00:01:15,720 --> 00:01:18,240 Speaker 3: to go out and through hard work and their old 22 00:01:18,319 --> 00:01:22,440 Speaker 3: reputations show that they were special or not have a. 23 00:01:22,440 --> 00:01:24,240 Speaker 2: Good game, and there was a sense of pride in 24 00:01:24,280 --> 00:01:27,720 Speaker 2: the work that they were doing, even if they didn't 25 00:01:27,720 --> 00:01:29,360 Speaker 2: agree with it, because a lot of people thought that 26 00:01:29,440 --> 00:01:32,640 Speaker 2: it was crazy what Walt Disney was doing, but yet 27 00:01:32,680 --> 00:01:36,520 Speaker 2: they still took tremendous pride in what it was that 28 00:01:36,520 --> 00:01:41,920 Speaker 2: they were doing. One interesting little factoid, completely irrelevant. I 29 00:01:42,040 --> 00:01:46,560 Speaker 2: just thought it was amazing when they built Main Street, USA. 30 00:01:46,680 --> 00:01:50,080 Speaker 2: When you walk into the park, so they had all 31 00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:53,440 Speaker 2: these crafters that were building the facades. Most of what 32 00:01:53,520 --> 00:01:55,440 Speaker 2: you see it's all fake. Even the bricks on the ground, 33 00:01:55,440 --> 00:01:58,280 Speaker 2: they're not real. It's just concrete. And they ended up 34 00:01:58,400 --> 00:02:01,440 Speaker 2: creating the creases and painting them to look like bricks. 35 00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:05,200 Speaker 2: I love all of them. But when it came to 36 00:02:05,200 --> 00:02:10,280 Speaker 2: Main Street, USA, these individuals weren't architects. They were designing 37 00:02:10,360 --> 00:02:13,560 Speaker 2: it on a certain period of Americana, but none of 38 00:02:13,600 --> 00:02:16,480 Speaker 2: them had like, you know, none of them were architects. 39 00:02:17,760 --> 00:02:20,480 Speaker 2: They just ended up creating something and then they looked 40 00:02:20,480 --> 00:02:21,880 Speaker 2: at it and said, Okay, that looks right, and then 41 00:02:21,880 --> 00:02:25,880 Speaker 2: they moved on. It was just amazing. I'm into that stuff. 42 00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:31,160 Speaker 2: A couple more clips of President Donald Trump yesterday, specifically 43 00:02:31,200 --> 00:02:35,919 Speaker 2: talking about the changes taking place here in Minnesota regarding 44 00:02:35,919 --> 00:02:37,160 Speaker 2: the IA operations. 45 00:02:37,480 --> 00:02:39,840 Speaker 4: Mister President, why did you decide to shape up your 46 00:02:39,919 --> 00:02:41,320 Speaker 4: leadership team in Minnesota? 47 00:02:41,440 --> 00:02:43,600 Speaker 5: And say, Tom, I do that all the time. I 48 00:02:43,639 --> 00:02:45,680 Speaker 5: shake up teams everybody here. These are a lot of 49 00:02:45,680 --> 00:02:48,680 Speaker 5: owners of farms and places, and you shaking up your 50 00:02:48,680 --> 00:02:52,240 Speaker 5: team if they can't do the crops fast enough, they go, look, 51 00:02:52,320 --> 00:02:55,720 Speaker 5: we have an incredible team. We did something that nobody 52 00:02:55,760 --> 00:02:58,640 Speaker 5: said was possible. We didn't go back to Congress and 53 00:02:58,760 --> 00:03:02,560 Speaker 5: ask for legislation. We closed the border. And in the 54 00:03:02,639 --> 00:03:05,280 Speaker 5: last eight months they have and this is actually hard 55 00:03:05,280 --> 00:03:09,120 Speaker 5: to believe. Nobody across the border, right, nobody. They say no, 56 00:03:09,240 --> 00:03:10,519 Speaker 5: I don't even know if that's possible. 57 00:03:11,360 --> 00:03:12,120 Speaker 2: But you know it's. 58 00:03:12,040 --> 00:03:15,600 Speaker 5: Democrats to do the report. It's a very liberal group 59 00:03:15,639 --> 00:03:18,240 Speaker 5: that does that report. It's a very important report. And 60 00:03:18,320 --> 00:03:20,920 Speaker 5: for nine months, I guess eight months, nine months, we 61 00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:24,320 Speaker 5: have nobody coming into our country unless they come in legally. 62 00:03:24,919 --> 00:03:27,000 Speaker 5: We want him to come in legally. You need people 63 00:03:27,240 --> 00:03:30,320 Speaker 5: to work for you. But we did something that I 64 00:03:30,320 --> 00:03:33,640 Speaker 5: would say people thought that was absolutely impossible, and we 65 00:03:33,680 --> 00:03:36,200 Speaker 5: were able to do it. So we're very honored by 66 00:03:36,200 --> 00:03:37,360 Speaker 5: what's happened to our country. 67 00:03:37,800 --> 00:03:41,920 Speaker 2: And here's one more Trump talking about Tim Walls doing 68 00:03:41,920 --> 00:03:44,960 Speaker 2: a turnaround to the way he had been talking leading 69 00:03:45,040 --> 00:03:48,160 Speaker 2: up to that phone call earlier this week station with 70 00:03:48,240 --> 00:03:49,040 Speaker 2: Governor Tim Walls. 71 00:03:49,080 --> 00:03:52,320 Speaker 6: This man has suggested that this had modern day Gettysburg. 72 00:03:52,720 --> 00:03:56,040 Speaker 6: He has likened his situation to Anne Frank in the Holocaust. 73 00:03:56,480 --> 00:03:59,200 Speaker 6: He has said that Ice is your gestapo army, and 74 00:03:59,240 --> 00:04:00,440 Speaker 6: then you guys speak on the phone. 75 00:04:00,480 --> 00:04:02,760 Speaker 2: I'm fascinated about that conversation. It couldn't have. 76 00:04:02,760 --> 00:04:05,280 Speaker 7: Been a nicer conversation. And in fact, I said to 77 00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:08,160 Speaker 7: my people, I said, cold to believe that's the same 78 00:04:08,200 --> 00:04:11,040 Speaker 7: guy at watch on television or a watching the debate 79 00:04:11,160 --> 00:04:13,440 Speaker 7: not doing so well, or because we had a very 80 00:04:13,480 --> 00:04:18,120 Speaker 7: reasonable conversation, very good conversation, if you believe the conversation. 81 00:04:18,240 --> 00:04:19,160 Speaker 8: He'd like to get this. 82 00:04:19,080 --> 00:04:20,120 Speaker 7: Thing over with. 83 00:04:20,800 --> 00:04:22,400 Speaker 2: But think of it, in the whole country. 84 00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:24,279 Speaker 7: We've done this so much. We have the crime down 85 00:04:24,320 --> 00:04:26,440 Speaker 7: to a level that nobody ever You know, I campaigned 86 00:04:26,960 --> 00:04:29,400 Speaker 7: a little bit on crime, a lot on the border. 87 00:04:29,560 --> 00:04:31,480 Speaker 7: The problem is I gave you the best border in 88 00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:33,479 Speaker 7: the history of our country. Nobody wants to talk about 89 00:04:33,480 --> 00:04:35,240 Speaker 7: it anymore. You know, I did it a long time ago. 90 00:04:35,279 --> 00:04:37,840 Speaker 7: I was able speaking. 91 00:04:37,440 --> 00:04:39,400 Speaker 2: Of the border. I want to get to the results 92 00:04:39,400 --> 00:04:41,719 Speaker 2: that we know so far and some new information about 93 00:04:41,720 --> 00:04:45,800 Speaker 2: Alex Pretty who tragically died on Saturday. But I've been 94 00:04:45,800 --> 00:04:50,400 Speaker 2: really enjoying going back to clips of prominent Democrats then 95 00:04:50,560 --> 00:04:55,080 Speaker 2: and now with their previous thoughts about border issues. You know, 96 00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:58,919 Speaker 2: like Ami Klobashar back in two thousand and six, is clobash. 97 00:04:58,440 --> 00:05:02,119 Speaker 9: Are Thursday, President Bush signed a law approving a seven 98 00:05:02,200 --> 00:05:05,680 Speaker 9: hundred mile fence on the US Mexican border. Is a 99 00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:09,839 Speaker 9: fence good immigration policy or just good politics? 100 00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:13,920 Speaker 10: I do believe that we need more resources at the border, 101 00:05:13,960 --> 00:05:16,680 Speaker 10: and that that includes a fence. What we have now 102 00:05:16,720 --> 00:05:20,719 Speaker 10: we have people waiting to come in legally, thousands of 103 00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:23,040 Speaker 10: people waiting to come in legally to this country, and 104 00:05:23,080 --> 00:05:24,720 Speaker 10: we have people coming in illegally. 105 00:05:25,000 --> 00:05:28,040 Speaker 11: That's not right. We need to get order at the border. 106 00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:31,719 Speaker 10: But we also have to stop giving amnesty to companies 107 00:05:31,720 --> 00:05:35,760 Speaker 10: that are hiring illegal immigrants. Under this administration, the number 108 00:05:35,800 --> 00:05:38,599 Speaker 10: of prosecutions of companies has gone way down. 109 00:05:38,960 --> 00:05:41,679 Speaker 2: That has to change. I hope she gets asked about 110 00:05:41,680 --> 00:05:45,000 Speaker 2: that if she does decide to finally formally launch your 111 00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:48,560 Speaker 2: gubernatorial campaign. I also like this one, going back to 112 00:05:48,680 --> 00:05:54,080 Speaker 2: nineteen ninety five, Bill Clinton getting a standing ovation for 113 00:05:54,160 --> 00:05:59,039 Speaker 2: talking about cracking down on illegal hiring. All Americans, not only. 114 00:05:58,839 --> 00:06:01,200 Speaker 12: In the States most heavily, but in every place in 115 00:06:01,200 --> 00:06:04,800 Speaker 12: this country, are rightly disturbed by the large numbers of 116 00:06:04,920 --> 00:06:09,560 Speaker 12: illegal aliens entering our country. The jobs they hold might 117 00:06:09,560 --> 00:06:12,839 Speaker 12: otherwise be held by citizens or legal immigrants. The public 118 00:06:12,880 --> 00:06:14,960 Speaker 12: service they use impost burdens. 119 00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:15,520 Speaker 2: On our taxpayers. 120 00:06:16,400 --> 00:06:19,440 Speaker 12: That's why our administration has moved aggressively to secure our 121 00:06:19,480 --> 00:06:22,760 Speaker 12: borders more by hiring a record number of new border guards, 122 00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:26,080 Speaker 12: by deporting twice as many criminal aliens as ever before, 123 00:06:26,480 --> 00:06:31,320 Speaker 12: by cracking down on illegal hiring, by barring welfare benefits. 124 00:06:30,839 --> 00:06:31,880 Speaker 2: To illegal aliens. 125 00:06:32,320 --> 00:06:34,320 Speaker 12: In the budget I will present to you, we will 126 00:06:34,320 --> 00:06:37,400 Speaker 12: try to do more to speed the deportation of illegal 127 00:06:37,400 --> 00:06:40,720 Speaker 12: aliens who a arrested for crimes, to better identify illegal 128 00:06:40,760 --> 00:06:44,159 Speaker 12: aliens in the workface, as recommended by the commission headed 129 00:06:44,160 --> 00:06:47,960 Speaker 12: by a former Congresswoman, Barbara Jordan. We are a nation 130 00:06:48,080 --> 00:06:51,600 Speaker 12: of immigrants, but we are also a nation of laws. 131 00:06:52,160 --> 00:06:55,760 Speaker 12: It is wrong and ultimately self defeating for a nation 132 00:06:55,839 --> 00:06:58,080 Speaker 12: of immigrants to permit the kind of abuse of our 133 00:06:58,120 --> 00:07:01,760 Speaker 12: immigration laws we have seen in recent years, and we 134 00:07:01,880 --> 00:07:03,880 Speaker 12: must do more to stop him. 135 00:07:04,080 --> 00:07:11,840 Speaker 13: If I could turn back time, if I could find 136 00:07:11,920 --> 00:07:17,680 Speaker 13: no will, what happened? 137 00:07:18,240 --> 00:07:26,480 Speaker 2: What happened? Oh oh, I can do his laugh, I. 138 00:07:26,520 --> 00:07:27,720 Speaker 14: Tell you one to thank justice. 139 00:07:27,960 --> 00:07:28,160 Speaker 2: Yeah. 140 00:07:28,600 --> 00:07:32,720 Speaker 14: Ain't nobody talking about the billions and billions of dollars 141 00:07:32,760 --> 00:07:36,880 Speaker 14: of fraud and waste here in Minnesota? And so not 142 00:07:37,120 --> 00:07:38,720 Speaker 14: a word gone away? 143 00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:39,360 Speaker 2: Okay. 144 00:07:39,920 --> 00:07:44,840 Speaker 14: You have to wonder, is Walls just as tricky as Trump? 145 00:07:44,920 --> 00:07:51,160 Speaker 14: Maybe we underestimated Walls here he We may have underestimated him. 146 00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:55,160 Speaker 14: I think he's coming back. I think the great Tim 147 00:07:55,240 --> 00:07:55,840 Speaker 14: is coming back. 148 00:07:55,960 --> 00:08:00,280 Speaker 2: No, I don't think so. We didn't underestimate anybody. Consider 149 00:08:00,360 --> 00:08:03,120 Speaker 2: how the news works, they always need something to talk about, 150 00:08:06,080 --> 00:08:08,360 Speaker 2: and right now it's been ice. Ice has been the 151 00:08:08,400 --> 00:08:11,640 Speaker 2: shiny new thing. Probably not the most appropriate way to 152 00:08:11,680 --> 00:08:14,280 Speaker 2: describe it, but you understand what I'm saying. Ice has 153 00:08:14,280 --> 00:08:17,480 Speaker 2: been the thing to talk about, dominating the headlines. It's 154 00:08:17,520 --> 00:08:20,080 Speaker 2: all a distraction. Yes, it's distracting away from the fraud. 155 00:08:20,640 --> 00:08:22,480 Speaker 2: But the ICE operations are going to stop, and we 156 00:08:22,560 --> 00:08:25,960 Speaker 2: may actually be seeing the end of that. We might be, 157 00:08:26,200 --> 00:08:28,559 Speaker 2: you know, at the endgame here, Ice may be able 158 00:08:28,600 --> 00:08:31,120 Speaker 2: with Tom Holman here in the state maybe able to 159 00:08:31,120 --> 00:08:32,720 Speaker 2: go and wrap up what they've been doing and make 160 00:08:32,760 --> 00:08:35,880 Speaker 2: sure they have everybody arrested that's on their list, those 161 00:08:35,920 --> 00:08:40,000 Speaker 2: here illegally, those that have committed crimes here illegally, and 162 00:08:40,080 --> 00:08:43,560 Speaker 2: once that's over, we're going to have federal investigations yielding 163 00:08:43,600 --> 00:08:45,760 Speaker 2: their results. Fraud's going to be right back to the 164 00:08:45,800 --> 00:08:49,280 Speaker 2: top again. Legislative session is just around the corner. It's 165 00:08:49,280 --> 00:08:51,400 Speaker 2: going to be unavoidable. They'll be talking about it there. 166 00:08:51,440 --> 00:08:55,079 Speaker 2: So no, no, he's not as crafty. I'm not worried 167 00:08:55,080 --> 00:08:57,280 Speaker 2: about the fact that we're not talking about fraud. And 168 00:08:57,679 --> 00:09:00,440 Speaker 2: I'll say it again, I actually think it's a good 169 00:09:00,480 --> 00:09:03,720 Speaker 2: thing right now that we're not talking about fraud, because 170 00:09:03,760 --> 00:09:06,680 Speaker 2: if we were continuing to hammer the fraud story this 171 00:09:06,800 --> 00:09:11,120 Speaker 2: whole time, it just ends up becoming white noise less 172 00:09:11,240 --> 00:09:15,400 Speaker 2: impact of videos like Nick Shirley because the second one 173 00:09:15,440 --> 00:09:18,480 Speaker 2: that came out, that's your proof, the transportation video that 174 00:09:18,559 --> 00:09:21,160 Speaker 2: came out. I know that it was superseded almost immediately 175 00:09:21,200 --> 00:09:23,800 Speaker 2: by the ice situation, but make no mistake, it was 176 00:09:23,800 --> 00:09:26,520 Speaker 2: getting views, but it wasn't getting nearly as much attention 177 00:09:26,800 --> 00:09:29,680 Speaker 2: as what the Quality Learing Center was. You need these 178 00:09:29,720 --> 00:09:32,520 Speaker 2: pauses I'm a believer that everything happens for a reason. 179 00:09:32,559 --> 00:09:35,120 Speaker 2: I'm not worried about it. The fraud issue is going 180 00:09:35,160 --> 00:09:37,559 Speaker 2: to be number one again, and as I started the 181 00:09:37,600 --> 00:09:40,079 Speaker 2: show off with, the economy is doing well, that's also 182 00:09:40,120 --> 00:09:46,200 Speaker 2: going to be a big issue. I'm not going down 183 00:09:46,200 --> 00:09:48,239 Speaker 2: this road that this is all going to be disastrous 184 00:09:48,280 --> 00:09:52,880 Speaker 2: for Republicans. People pontificating and saying that dissol is a 185 00:09:52,880 --> 00:09:55,880 Speaker 2: harbinger of doom. Republicans are going to get wiped out. 186 00:09:56,320 --> 00:09:58,520 Speaker 2: It is only January. We're not even done with the 187 00:09:58,520 --> 00:10:01,480 Speaker 2: first month of the year, and it feels like we've 188 00:10:01,520 --> 00:10:04,560 Speaker 2: already been through a year. I need another vacation after 189 00:10:04,600 --> 00:10:07,240 Speaker 2: just coming off of vacation. Based off of everything that's 190 00:10:07,280 --> 00:10:10,120 Speaker 2: happened just in the course of the past couple of weeks, 191 00:10:10,520 --> 00:10:17,880 Speaker 2: you think it's gonna relent anytime soon. No Pretty suffered 192 00:10:17,880 --> 00:10:20,120 Speaker 2: a broken rib and ice accounter a week before he 193 00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:23,319 Speaker 2: was shot. We also have the preliminary report on the 194 00:10:23,360 --> 00:10:25,480 Speaker 2: Prettie shooting. I'll give you details on that ahead of 195 00:10:25,520 --> 00:10:28,719 Speaker 2: my conversation with Liz Collin from Alpha News. I want 196 00:10:28,720 --> 00:10:30,440 Speaker 2: to leave you with this though. I played that clip 197 00:10:30,480 --> 00:10:36,199 Speaker 2: from Bill Clinton standing ovation for cracking down on illegal hiring, 198 00:10:36,600 --> 00:10:40,480 Speaker 2: barring welfare benefits for criminal and illegal aliens, impost burdens 199 00:10:40,480 --> 00:10:46,880 Speaker 2: on our taxpayers. Amy Klobashar talking about a border wall, 200 00:10:47,280 --> 00:10:50,320 Speaker 2: no amnesty for those that hire illegal immigrants. I want 201 00:10:50,320 --> 00:10:54,360 Speaker 2: to juxtapose that next to Minneapolis's City council member Robin 202 00:10:54,400 --> 00:11:01,400 Speaker 2: Wansley smearing ice who are out there murderers, rapists, and 203 00:11:01,440 --> 00:11:05,920 Speaker 2: pedophiles off the streets, calling them swatzias. 204 00:11:06,360 --> 00:11:09,080 Speaker 15: We want the two thousand plus agents that are still 205 00:11:09,160 --> 00:11:12,240 Speaker 15: here today occupying our communities and putting them at Harn's 206 00:11:12,320 --> 00:11:15,080 Speaker 15: Rich for being abducted or even shotting Hill. We want 207 00:11:15,120 --> 00:11:15,520 Speaker 15: them out. 208 00:11:15,520 --> 00:11:16,679 Speaker 2: We don't want swatzies. 209 00:11:17,400 --> 00:11:22,920 Speaker 15: So until that demand is fulfilled, there is simply not 210 00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:25,920 Speaker 15: a satisfying moment in this change. 211 00:11:25,960 --> 00:11:28,840 Speaker 2: That is your example of how the radicals have taken 212 00:11:28,840 --> 00:11:33,320 Speaker 2: over the Democrat party. Amy Klobashar used to sound like 213 00:11:33,400 --> 00:11:37,319 Speaker 2: your typical conservative on immigration issues, just going back to 214 00:11:37,360 --> 00:11:40,080 Speaker 2: two thousand and six, and now she sounds more in 215 00:11:40,160 --> 00:11:46,640 Speaker 2: line with radical Democrat socialists like Robin Wansley than even 216 00:11:46,679 --> 00:11:50,240 Speaker 2: in nineteen ninety five, Bill Clinton, this cracker can make 217 00:11:50,320 --> 00:11:51,840 Speaker 2: you act any differently. 218 00:11:52,040 --> 00:11:52,160 Speaker 4: Now? 219 00:11:52,640 --> 00:12:01,080 Speaker 2: Is it shafer than alcohol? Probably? You know after planing 220 00:12:01,120 --> 00:12:03,920 Speaker 2: all looks, I want to hear both of the show. 221 00:12:06,120 --> 00:12:06,800 Speaker 8: What changed? 222 00:12:08,000 --> 00:12:09,760 Speaker 1: Seriously, both of the show? 223 00:12:10,520 --> 00:12:11,319 Speaker 8: What changed? 224 00:12:13,679 --> 00:12:17,840 Speaker 12: How is the rhetoric from Boba. 225 00:12:17,600 --> 00:12:22,280 Speaker 2: Shark or Clinton any difference than what Trump and other 226 00:12:22,320 --> 00:12:23,680 Speaker 2: Republicans have been changed? 227 00:12:24,880 --> 00:12:25,040 Speaker 15: Fun? 228 00:12:26,240 --> 00:12:26,960 Speaker 1: What is it? 229 00:12:27,040 --> 00:12:30,640 Speaker 2: And they had to change their tactics slowly over time 230 00:12:30,800 --> 00:12:35,120 Speaker 2: they got co opted by the radical left. And I 231 00:12:35,160 --> 00:12:38,520 Speaker 2: don't want to I don't want to go too far here, 232 00:12:38,600 --> 00:12:41,040 Speaker 2: but I'll just touch upon it briefly because there's a 233 00:12:41,040 --> 00:12:43,720 Speaker 2: lot of different reasons. Right, there's no one one reason 234 00:12:43,720 --> 00:12:47,840 Speaker 2: why this happened. But on a long enough timeline, you 235 00:12:48,000 --> 00:12:49,719 Speaker 2: look at what the Democrats were able to do with 236 00:12:49,760 --> 00:12:53,040 Speaker 2: the public education system. And having been doing, you know, 237 00:12:53,120 --> 00:12:55,640 Speaker 2: having been a talk show host, been doing, having been 238 00:12:55,640 --> 00:13:01,480 Speaker 2: doing a talk show host, me talking well whatever, being 239 00:13:01,480 --> 00:13:03,520 Speaker 2: a talk show host for the many years that I 240 00:13:03,600 --> 00:13:07,000 Speaker 2: have been, I've seen this happen firsthand. It goes back 241 00:13:07,040 --> 00:13:10,040 Speaker 2: to the indoctrination conversation that we were having last hour. 242 00:13:12,679 --> 00:13:15,840 Speaker 2: They were able to go and bring that indoctrination into 243 00:13:15,880 --> 00:13:20,640 Speaker 2: the classroom slowly begin to morph the young impressionable minds 244 00:13:20,640 --> 00:13:22,520 Speaker 2: at the grade school level. This was already happening at 245 00:13:22,520 --> 00:13:25,680 Speaker 2: the university level, and because of that thing started to 246 00:13:25,679 --> 00:13:28,440 Speaker 2: get more radical and more radical that these individuals left 247 00:13:29,000 --> 00:13:31,720 Speaker 2: the confines of their grade schools and went off to 248 00:13:32,040 --> 00:13:35,920 Speaker 2: college where they had these liberal opinions bolstered. Then they 249 00:13:36,120 --> 00:13:38,080 Speaker 2: end up growing up, a lot of them end up 250 00:13:38,160 --> 00:13:41,800 Speaker 2: running for politics, and things slowly change. It wasn't all 251 00:13:41,840 --> 00:13:45,320 Speaker 2: that long ago we were talking about the squad. And 252 00:13:45,400 --> 00:13:48,040 Speaker 2: why did we talk about the squad, including ilhan Omar 253 00:13:48,720 --> 00:13:53,600 Speaker 2: Because they were the fringe. They represented the radical portion 254 00:13:53,880 --> 00:13:59,359 Speaker 2: of the party. They don't anymore. They are the party. 255 00:14:00,120 --> 00:14:02,400 Speaker 2: But it also goes to show that the Democrats do 256 00:14:02,480 --> 00:14:04,960 Speaker 2: not stand for almost anything that they say they stand for. 257 00:14:06,520 --> 00:14:09,880 Speaker 2: It's about power, influence, growing that power and growing that influence, 258 00:14:10,880 --> 00:14:14,360 Speaker 2: sources told CNN. The federal government has been collecting personal 259 00:14:14,360 --> 00:14:18,000 Speaker 2: information about the protesters, including details from Pretty's earlier encounter 260 00:14:18,040 --> 00:14:22,040 Speaker 2: with ice. According to CNN, it was believed that Pretty 261 00:14:22,160 --> 00:14:24,960 Speaker 2: was tackled by federal officers while protesting their attempts to 262 00:14:25,040 --> 00:14:29,320 Speaker 2: arrest other demonstrators, including a family Preddy allegedly said was 263 00:14:29,360 --> 00:14:34,200 Speaker 2: being chased by immigrant to agents on foot. Sources told 264 00:14:34,240 --> 00:14:37,400 Speaker 2: the outlet that Pretty claimed five agents tackled him as 265 00:14:37,440 --> 00:14:40,600 Speaker 2: he observed the agents, one allegedly leaning on his back, 266 00:14:40,600 --> 00:14:44,720 Speaker 2: causing a broken rib. He was eventually released from the scene. 267 00:14:44,760 --> 00:14:47,240 Speaker 2: The source told CNN that day he said he thought 268 00:14:47,240 --> 00:14:52,960 Speaker 2: he was going to die. See, this is why comments 269 00:14:53,880 --> 00:14:57,280 Speaker 2: didn't go over well and should have and they should 270 00:14:57,320 --> 00:15:00,200 Speaker 2: have waited over the weekend when the initial report of 271 00:15:00,200 --> 00:15:04,680 Speaker 2: the shooting came out from both Baveno and Christy Nome. 272 00:15:06,000 --> 00:15:10,160 Speaker 2: This jump to an assumption that because he had multiple 273 00:15:10,200 --> 00:15:14,560 Speaker 2: magazines on him along with his firearm, that he was 274 00:15:15,040 --> 00:15:20,480 Speaker 2: there to commit a massacre of agents. Now that's just speculation. 275 00:15:20,760 --> 00:15:23,880 Speaker 2: It's unhelpful in the moment without evidence, And if they 276 00:15:23,880 --> 00:15:27,000 Speaker 2: had waited further and not made comments like that, it 277 00:15:27,040 --> 00:15:30,000 Speaker 2: doesn't matter. On the left, they don't care. But if 278 00:15:30,000 --> 00:15:32,280 Speaker 2: we're looking at this from an angle of we want 279 00:15:32,280 --> 00:15:33,880 Speaker 2: to make sure that we're doing the right thing right. 280 00:15:33,920 --> 00:15:35,400 Speaker 2: I want to make sure that I'm doing the right 281 00:15:35,440 --> 00:15:37,760 Speaker 2: thing every single day. I want to make sure that 282 00:15:37,800 --> 00:15:40,360 Speaker 2: I turn off the MIC, I do my promos, and 283 00:15:40,400 --> 00:15:42,640 Speaker 2: I go home, and that I can look at myself 284 00:15:42,640 --> 00:15:44,720 Speaker 2: in the mirror, and I can look at the members 285 00:15:44,760 --> 00:15:47,400 Speaker 2: of my family who are all now a voting age, 286 00:15:48,040 --> 00:15:50,520 Speaker 2: my son, specifically Melinda's been voting age for a while 287 00:15:53,480 --> 00:15:55,240 Speaker 2: and that I can look at them and know that, hey, 288 00:15:55,280 --> 00:15:57,520 Speaker 2: I did the best job that I could. I wasn't 289 00:15:57,560 --> 00:16:01,600 Speaker 2: a hypocrite. I was presenting the news as it is 290 00:16:01,840 --> 00:16:05,920 Speaker 2: in sharing my opinion. I care about these things. Conservatives 291 00:16:05,920 --> 00:16:07,720 Speaker 2: care about these things, not so much on the left. 292 00:16:08,760 --> 00:16:11,320 Speaker 2: But my point is, now that we have further details, 293 00:16:12,640 --> 00:16:15,040 Speaker 2: comments like that don't seem so over the top anymore. 294 00:16:15,880 --> 00:16:18,680 Speaker 2: It is just pure speculation. But it is interesting that 295 00:16:18,720 --> 00:16:21,440 Speaker 2: pretty suffered a broken rib had an encounter with ICE 296 00:16:21,480 --> 00:16:25,360 Speaker 2: agents a week before he was shot. So this happens, 297 00:16:25,400 --> 00:16:29,160 Speaker 2: and then he decide again what drove him to make 298 00:16:29,200 --> 00:16:33,560 Speaker 2: that decision. Well, now we may have further reasons. The 299 00:16:33,560 --> 00:16:37,920 Speaker 2: preliminary report from the Department of Homeland Security is out, 300 00:16:38,600 --> 00:16:41,520 Speaker 2: working off an article here from David Zimmer. Preddy was 301 00:16:41,560 --> 00:16:44,640 Speaker 2: identified as a member of the ICE Watch group that 302 00:16:44,720 --> 00:16:48,800 Speaker 2: follows documents and attempts to impede ICE and immigration enforcement. 303 00:16:49,640 --> 00:16:52,040 Speaker 2: During the struggle, an agent yelled he's got a gun 304 00:16:52,120 --> 00:16:55,640 Speaker 2: multiple times. The report indicates the two different agents, one 305 00:16:55,720 --> 00:16:58,680 Speaker 2: from the United States Border Patrol and another from Customs 306 00:16:58,680 --> 00:17:03,360 Speaker 2: and Border Protection, both fired rounds into Preddy. Two agents 307 00:17:03,400 --> 00:17:10,280 Speaker 2: firing near simultaneously indicates two separate law enforcement officers perceived 308 00:17:10,359 --> 00:17:13,679 Speaker 2: the same threat in the moment. There wasn't ten shots. 309 00:17:13,680 --> 00:17:16,720 Speaker 2: There wasn't nine shots. As people keep saying, there's no 310 00:17:16,800 --> 00:17:20,199 Speaker 2: indication in the report that Preddy's gun was fired. That 311 00:17:20,280 --> 00:17:23,840 Speaker 2: was some speculation that perhaps that gun, which is notorious 312 00:17:23,880 --> 00:17:28,680 Speaker 2: apparently for going off accidentally, may have fired that triggered this. Apparently, 313 00:17:28,680 --> 00:17:32,040 Speaker 2: according to the preliminary report, that's not the case. The 314 00:17:32,119 --> 00:17:36,720 Speaker 2: report states that a third u USPS agent reported after 315 00:17:36,720 --> 00:17:39,320 Speaker 2: the shooting that he had possession of Pretti's gun, apparently 316 00:17:39,320 --> 00:17:43,400 Speaker 2: confirming the agent had disarmed pretty during the struggle, as 317 00:17:43,440 --> 00:17:45,800 Speaker 2: at least one of the videos appears to show. The 318 00:17:45,840 --> 00:17:51,080 Speaker 2: report concludes by confirming the intent of Homeland Security investigations 319 00:17:51,080 --> 00:17:54,159 Speaker 2: to complete the investigation. This remains an area of contention 320 00:17:54,240 --> 00:17:59,920 Speaker 2: between the federal government and state local authorities as well. 321 00:18:00,840 --> 00:18:03,720 Speaker 2: So again we'll find out through this investigation exactly what 322 00:18:03,800 --> 00:18:08,639 Speaker 2: happened here, and it may just have been a bad shoot, 323 00:18:08,800 --> 00:18:13,760 Speaker 2: a horrible accident, and really bad circumstances. And there is 324 00:18:13,760 --> 00:18:15,800 Speaker 2: a question of why he didn't have his idea with him. 325 00:18:15,800 --> 00:18:19,040 Speaker 2: You're supposed to have your idea if you're carrying a firearm. 326 00:18:19,320 --> 00:18:21,600 Speaker 2: And again, the inclusion of a firearm to the protest 327 00:18:21,880 --> 00:18:24,480 Speaker 2: and the multiple magazines doesn't mean that he had any 328 00:18:24,520 --> 00:18:27,800 Speaker 2: other intent other than just bringing his firearm with him, 329 00:18:27,840 --> 00:18:30,960 Speaker 2: like anybody would who has a carry permit to go 330 00:18:31,200 --> 00:18:34,800 Speaker 2: and defend themselves. But it's also not as simple as 331 00:18:34,840 --> 00:18:36,520 Speaker 2: people want to go and make it out to be, 332 00:18:36,840 --> 00:18:38,880 Speaker 2: including those of the show like Phil. 333 00:18:39,640 --> 00:18:41,840 Speaker 16: Yeah, John and Justice just fill from edon Corey. 334 00:18:42,240 --> 00:18:42,920 Speaker 8: You know, at. 335 00:18:44,760 --> 00:18:46,600 Speaker 16: The only thing I got to say is Ice and 336 00:18:47,040 --> 00:18:50,120 Speaker 16: President Trump and all those government officials work for us, 337 00:18:50,200 --> 00:18:54,320 Speaker 16: the people, the taxpayers that pay their salaries. So that's 338 00:18:54,320 --> 00:18:56,920 Speaker 16: what it boils down for. Yeah, the right to process. 339 00:18:56,920 --> 00:18:59,240 Speaker 16: They work for us and who feel they're not doing 340 00:18:59,240 --> 00:18:59,920 Speaker 16: a job correctly. 341 00:19:00,240 --> 00:19:02,760 Speaker 2: Let me stop here really quick. Again. He's putting forward 342 00:19:02,800 --> 00:19:06,359 Speaker 2: these arguments that don't exist. Nobody is saying that people 343 00:19:06,400 --> 00:19:09,280 Speaker 2: don't have a right to protest. Technically you don't. You 344 00:19:09,359 --> 00:19:12,520 Speaker 2: have a lawful assembly. You don't have a right to 345 00:19:12,600 --> 00:19:17,440 Speaker 2: go and cause damage to people or to obstruct agents 346 00:19:17,480 --> 00:19:21,080 Speaker 2: doing their job. That's not a right. Then you're breaking 347 00:19:21,119 --> 00:19:23,679 Speaker 2: the law. You have a right of peaceful assembly. But 348 00:19:23,720 --> 00:19:26,639 Speaker 2: people like Phil want to create these false arguments to 349 00:19:26,720 --> 00:19:28,359 Speaker 2: try to go and stress their point. 350 00:19:28,640 --> 00:19:32,720 Speaker 16: We can protest and proto getting shot. Once you're disarmed, 351 00:19:32,760 --> 00:19:34,439 Speaker 16: you're not a threat. Look it up. 352 00:19:34,480 --> 00:19:38,320 Speaker 2: Idiot has a good back, so he says we can protest, 353 00:19:39,000 --> 00:19:41,200 Speaker 2: we should be able to protest without getting shot. Okay, 354 00:19:41,240 --> 00:19:43,560 Speaker 2: but that wasn't just an individual standing on the side 355 00:19:43,600 --> 00:19:45,920 Speaker 2: of the road that was just randomly shot. It was 356 00:19:45,960 --> 00:19:48,520 Speaker 2: an individual who got in the way of what Ice 357 00:19:48,680 --> 00:19:52,359 Speaker 2: was doing. And once you're disarmed, you're not a threat. 358 00:19:52,880 --> 00:19:58,880 Speaker 2: But it's also not that simple either. This is why 359 00:19:58,920 --> 00:20:00,720 Speaker 2: I've said all along, I'm leaving it up to the 360 00:20:00,760 --> 00:20:04,520 Speaker 2: Second Amendment, lawyers, at experts, and the investigation to yield 361 00:20:04,560 --> 00:20:06,960 Speaker 2: the results of what exactly transpired in those moments and 362 00:20:06,960 --> 00:20:09,560 Speaker 2: whether or not it was a bad shoot. Speaking of experts, though, 363 00:20:09,560 --> 00:20:11,920 Speaker 2: we're going to talk with Liz Colin from Alpha News 364 00:20:11,960 --> 00:20:14,680 Speaker 2: in a moment. She had the opportunity on her podcast 365 00:20:14,720 --> 00:20:18,560 Speaker 2: this week to speak with attorney and self defense expert 366 00:20:19,359 --> 00:20:24,399 Speaker 2: Andrew Branca about the shooting of Alex Preddy, and he 367 00:20:24,520 --> 00:20:27,199 Speaker 2: believes that it was justified, and he lays out the 368 00:20:27,280 --> 00:20:30,200 Speaker 2: reasons why. So here's a bit of that interview, which 369 00:20:30,240 --> 00:20:33,800 Speaker 2: you can go and see at Alphanews. Dot Org in 370 00:20:33,880 --> 00:20:36,719 Speaker 2: its entirety, and we'll talk with Liz Collin here in 371 00:20:36,840 --> 00:20:37,359 Speaker 2: just a moment. 372 00:20:37,600 --> 00:20:40,560 Speaker 8: Well, the legal question is, did the officers who shot 373 00:20:40,600 --> 00:20:44,199 Speaker 8: Alex Pretty have a reasonable, not necessarily correct, but a 374 00:20:44,240 --> 00:20:48,000 Speaker 8: reasonable perception that he was presenting as an imminent unlawful 375 00:20:48,040 --> 00:20:49,040 Speaker 8: deadly force threat. 376 00:20:49,600 --> 00:20:51,600 Speaker 2: And that's presumed to be the case. 377 00:20:51,720 --> 00:20:55,440 Speaker 8: A prosecutor would have to disprove that proposition beyond any 378 00:20:55,600 --> 00:20:58,840 Speaker 8: reasonable doubt. So it's a very high burden to overcome 379 00:20:58,880 --> 00:21:01,760 Speaker 8: that justification. And what evidence. 380 00:21:01,359 --> 00:21:02,640 Speaker 2: Did these officers have. 381 00:21:02,800 --> 00:21:07,280 Speaker 8: Well, the moment Alex Pretty interfered with the arrest of 382 00:21:06,400 --> 00:21:09,639 Speaker 8: the woman in the white coat, gets shoved by a 383 00:21:09,680 --> 00:21:13,760 Speaker 8: CBP officer, he makes contact with that officer. The moment 384 00:21:13,800 --> 00:21:16,480 Speaker 8: he makes contact with that officer, he's just committed a 385 00:21:16,560 --> 00:21:20,120 Speaker 8: federal felony, good for eight years in a federal penitentiary. 386 00:21:20,160 --> 00:21:23,000 Speaker 8: That's why they were seeking to make his arrest, because 387 00:21:23,040 --> 00:21:26,440 Speaker 8: they saw him commit a forcible felony against a fellow officer. 388 00:21:26,720 --> 00:21:30,120 Speaker 8: Then he's non compliant with arrest, he's fighting them. Then 389 00:21:30,160 --> 00:21:33,080 Speaker 8: they discover he has a gun on his person. They 390 00:21:33,119 --> 00:21:36,159 Speaker 8: take that gun. There's cries of gun, gun, gun. The 391 00:21:36,200 --> 00:21:39,280 Speaker 8: officers called to each other he's still non compliant. They 392 00:21:39,359 --> 00:21:43,200 Speaker 8: hear a gunshot go off, and Alex Preddy's right hand 393 00:21:43,320 --> 00:21:46,240 Speaker 8: comes from his waistline with a black object in his hand. 394 00:21:46,960 --> 00:21:49,240 Speaker 8: That combination of facts is going to get you shot 395 00:21:49,400 --> 00:21:52,040 Speaker 8: nine hundred and ninety nine times out of a thousand 396 00:21:52,119 --> 00:21:56,720 Speaker 8: by law enforcement, and justifiably so. They're making all these perceptions, 397 00:21:56,760 --> 00:22:00,640 Speaker 8: all these decisions in a violent, chaotic melee caused by 398 00:22:00,680 --> 00:22:01,399 Speaker 8: Alex Breddy. 399 00:22:01,640 --> 00:22:02,520 Speaker 2: They have to make all. 400 00:22:02,359 --> 00:22:04,880 Speaker 8: These decisions in a split second, because that's how quick 401 00:22:04,920 --> 00:22:09,119 Speaker 8: someone can use a weapon against you. And those decisions, again, 402 00:22:09,160 --> 00:22:11,520 Speaker 8: they don't have to be correct. The los self defense 403 00:22:11,560 --> 00:22:14,960 Speaker 8: does not require us to make perfect decisions. It requires 404 00:22:15,040 --> 00:22:18,639 Speaker 8: us to make reasoned decisions, meaning you're applying your powers 405 00:22:18,680 --> 00:22:21,199 Speaker 8: of reason to the facts presented to you. You're not 406 00:22:21,280 --> 00:22:25,040 Speaker 8: making things up. You're not speculating someone could have a weapon. Now, 407 00:22:25,040 --> 00:22:27,000 Speaker 8: probably the item in his hand would turn out to 408 00:22:27,000 --> 00:22:30,119 Speaker 8: be maybe one of his spare magazines or maybe a 409 00:22:30,160 --> 00:22:32,760 Speaker 8: cell phone. But it doesn't matter what it actually was. 410 00:22:32,840 --> 00:22:35,920 Speaker 8: It matters how it would be reasonably perceived. Given that 411 00:22:35,960 --> 00:22:38,800 Speaker 8: combination of facts and reasonably perceiving it as a weapon 412 00:22:39,240 --> 00:22:41,280 Speaker 8: is well within the realm of reason. 413 00:22:42,119 --> 00:22:43,960 Speaker 2: I hope the foes of the show were listening, and 414 00:22:43,960 --> 00:22:45,639 Speaker 2: I would encourage all those foes of the show to 415 00:22:45,720 --> 00:22:48,920 Speaker 2: check out to the entirety of that interview on alphanus 416 00:22:48,920 --> 00:22:50,840 Speaker 2: dot org. And we will talk with Liz Colin next 417 00:22:50,840 --> 00:22:59,600 Speaker 2: here on Twin City's News Talk, Twin City's News Talking 418 00:22:59,600 --> 00:23:03,040 Speaker 2: a thirty one oh three five FM. All right, I'm 419 00:23:03,080 --> 00:23:06,040 Speaker 2: rightning behind. Let's get to Liz Colin from Alpha News 420 00:23:06,080 --> 00:23:08,520 Speaker 2: here this morning on Twin Cities News Talk. Good morning, Liz. 421 00:23:08,720 --> 00:23:12,280 Speaker 2: How are you doing this morning? John? Good morning? Do well? 422 00:23:12,280 --> 00:23:12,800 Speaker 11: How are you sure? 423 00:23:13,240 --> 00:23:16,880 Speaker 2: Never a dull moment? Never uh never, never a shortage 424 00:23:16,920 --> 00:23:18,720 Speaker 2: of things that we could talk about, that's for sure. 425 00:23:19,920 --> 00:23:22,879 Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, I was off last week, but not really. 426 00:23:22,920 --> 00:23:28,320 Speaker 4: It's just it's never ending. But good to be back 427 00:23:28,440 --> 00:23:30,159 Speaker 4: on Where would you like to start. 428 00:23:30,400 --> 00:23:32,840 Speaker 2: Let's start off with we just played audio a portion 429 00:23:32,960 --> 00:23:35,919 Speaker 2: that you had put up at Alpha News of the 430 00:23:35,960 --> 00:23:40,000 Speaker 2: attorney and self defense expert in the alex Pretty shooting 431 00:23:40,040 --> 00:23:42,720 Speaker 2: saying it was legally justified. But I know that he 432 00:23:42,800 --> 00:23:46,639 Speaker 2: got into more of just his reasons why, which was 433 00:23:46,680 --> 00:23:49,879 Speaker 2: in that two minute clip of why he believed this 434 00:23:49,960 --> 00:23:52,159 Speaker 2: was a justified shooting. We'll certainly have to see what 435 00:23:52,240 --> 00:23:56,879 Speaker 2: the investigation yields. But he also talked about the propaganda 436 00:23:56,920 --> 00:24:00,480 Speaker 2: that's being put out there as well, right, Liz, Yeah, Yeah, it. 437 00:24:00,440 --> 00:24:01,520 Speaker 11: Was a great conversation. 438 00:24:02,040 --> 00:24:05,680 Speaker 4: This guy's name is Andrew Brinka, and caught him online. 439 00:24:05,720 --> 00:24:09,320 Speaker 4: I think his tweet went quite viral this weekend and 440 00:24:09,320 --> 00:24:11,240 Speaker 4: I thought, hey, let's see if we can talk to 441 00:24:11,359 --> 00:24:15,920 Speaker 4: him as well. But he's an attorney, author, an expert 442 00:24:15,960 --> 00:24:19,400 Speaker 4: on self defense. He's been a part of many cases before. 443 00:24:19,480 --> 00:24:21,280 Speaker 4: But he does a really good job. You know, he 444 00:24:21,280 --> 00:24:23,000 Speaker 4: says he can't even count how many times he watched 445 00:24:23,040 --> 00:24:25,520 Speaker 4: the video and has seen every piece of video from 446 00:24:25,560 --> 00:24:29,480 Speaker 4: every angle. Can't count how many times he's you know, 447 00:24:29,640 --> 00:24:33,760 Speaker 4: seen it before going on the air and making this assessment. 448 00:24:33,800 --> 00:24:37,520 Speaker 4: But just talks about Alex and this obviously. 449 00:24:37,080 --> 00:24:39,360 Speaker 11: These tragic and frantic final. 450 00:24:39,200 --> 00:24:43,240 Speaker 4: Moments, you know, blocking traffic, he puts his hands on 451 00:24:43,280 --> 00:24:45,920 Speaker 4: a law enforcement officer. You know, he says, that's an 452 00:24:45,960 --> 00:24:49,199 Speaker 4: eight year prison sentence right there. You know, you just 453 00:24:49,240 --> 00:24:53,200 Speaker 4: do not get in the way of a law enforcement operation. 454 00:24:53,320 --> 00:24:55,400 Speaker 4: It's absolutely insane to me that we have to still 455 00:24:55,400 --> 00:24:57,680 Speaker 4: talk about this. But he does do a good job 456 00:24:57,680 --> 00:25:00,560 Speaker 4: also of talking about, you know, how these and I 457 00:25:00,600 --> 00:25:02,840 Speaker 4: was seeing that this weekend as well with journalists. They 458 00:25:03,000 --> 00:25:07,439 Speaker 4: love to armchair quarterback any law enforcement interaction. I know 459 00:25:07,480 --> 00:25:10,160 Speaker 4: it's very well, uh not only being married to who 460 00:25:10,160 --> 00:25:11,880 Speaker 4: I'm married to, but just seeing this play out again 461 00:25:11,920 --> 00:25:12,280 Speaker 4: and again. 462 00:25:12,640 --> 00:25:14,040 Speaker 11: And we had our top reporters in. 463 00:25:14,000 --> 00:25:16,840 Speaker 4: Minnesota doing their their best to do that as well, 464 00:25:18,440 --> 00:25:20,479 Speaker 4: and they just don't see. You know, they haven't been 465 00:25:20,480 --> 00:25:22,720 Speaker 4: a part of these citizens academies. They've done nothing to 466 00:25:23,040 --> 00:25:24,680 Speaker 4: you know, even make these determinations. 467 00:25:24,720 --> 00:25:25,639 Speaker 11: This looks terrible. 468 00:25:25,680 --> 00:25:28,440 Speaker 4: I mean, obviously, no loss of life is ever going 469 00:25:28,520 --> 00:25:32,760 Speaker 4: to to look okay to to anybody with a heart, 470 00:25:32,840 --> 00:25:36,160 Speaker 4: but you know, to actually walk through and what took 471 00:25:36,200 --> 00:25:38,800 Speaker 4: place that you don't insert yourself the way that that 472 00:25:38,920 --> 00:25:42,880 Speaker 4: Alex did. He doesn't clearly doesn't comply. He's not down 473 00:25:42,920 --> 00:25:44,719 Speaker 4: on the on the ground. They're all on top of him, 474 00:25:44,760 --> 00:25:47,080 Speaker 4: but he's on his knees and he is reaching back 475 00:25:47,160 --> 00:25:50,800 Speaker 4: and you know, officers in that moment don't know what 476 00:25:50,840 --> 00:25:53,800 Speaker 4: he has in his hand or what he is doing. 477 00:25:53,880 --> 00:25:54,920 Speaker 11: A gun is seen. 478 00:25:55,119 --> 00:25:59,680 Speaker 4: So again he said that, you know, Alex fought the 479 00:26:00,080 --> 00:26:03,240 Speaker 4: law that morning and the law one but I encourage people. 480 00:26:03,240 --> 00:26:04,879 Speaker 4: It's only about an eight minute video or so just 481 00:26:04,880 --> 00:26:08,200 Speaker 4: to hear from a from a perspective who has done 482 00:26:08,240 --> 00:26:10,240 Speaker 4: this but before and reviewed all the. 483 00:26:10,280 --> 00:26:13,080 Speaker 2: Video talking talking with Let's callin from Alpha News. And 484 00:26:13,400 --> 00:26:15,680 Speaker 2: I'm sorry I was confused. I thought your husband just 485 00:26:15,720 --> 00:26:18,760 Speaker 2: did like Burger reviews, as he's significant in some other 486 00:26:19,040 --> 00:26:20,480 Speaker 2: way that I'm unaware. 487 00:26:21,840 --> 00:26:24,480 Speaker 4: Yeah, he's uh, you know, it's it's bringing up I 488 00:26:24,520 --> 00:26:26,439 Speaker 4: think a lot of for a lot of people that 489 00:26:26,520 --> 00:26:28,960 Speaker 4: have lived through this, you know, five, six, six years ago, 490 00:26:29,000 --> 00:26:32,439 Speaker 4: to just it doesn't do any good to jump to 491 00:26:32,440 --> 00:26:35,720 Speaker 4: all these these conclusions and fire everybody up the way 492 00:26:35,720 --> 00:26:37,640 Speaker 4: that they are. But it's almost as if nothing has 493 00:26:37,680 --> 00:26:39,760 Speaker 4: been learned, and yet. 494 00:26:39,560 --> 00:26:40,200 Speaker 11: Here we are again. 495 00:26:40,600 --> 00:26:43,080 Speaker 2: We almost need like I feel like every morning, I 496 00:26:43,160 --> 00:26:46,160 Speaker 2: need to just grab all the list of different events 497 00:26:46,200 --> 00:26:48,680 Speaker 2: that are worthy to talk about, because there's so much 498 00:26:48,720 --> 00:26:51,200 Speaker 2: to keep track of, and there's something new every single day. 499 00:26:51,359 --> 00:26:55,879 Speaker 2: The city, the city's church protest, which was dominating everything 500 00:26:55,920 --> 00:26:58,520 Speaker 2: last week that everybody's kind of forgotten about. However, I 501 00:26:58,600 --> 00:27:02,840 Speaker 2: know you at Alpha News have a story up regarding 502 00:27:03,359 --> 00:27:06,760 Speaker 2: what actually took place that day and further details that 503 00:27:06,840 --> 00:27:10,760 Speaker 2: I hadn't even heard until now, which again sort of 504 00:27:10,880 --> 00:27:14,280 Speaker 2: leads into the whole reason why the individuals were arrested 505 00:27:14,280 --> 00:27:16,119 Speaker 2: in the first place for what they were doing, because 506 00:27:16,119 --> 00:27:18,280 Speaker 2: it was actually a lot more extreme than what we 507 00:27:18,800 --> 00:27:22,160 Speaker 2: even thought initially in the first reporting, right. 508 00:27:22,119 --> 00:27:26,119 Speaker 4: Liz, Yeah, Heley Feelin's been doing a great job over 509 00:27:26,160 --> 00:27:29,159 Speaker 4: at Alpha keeping a keeping track of all this. But 510 00:27:29,240 --> 00:27:32,680 Speaker 4: this is an Affidavid that was recently filed. But one 511 00:27:32,760 --> 00:27:36,880 Speaker 4: victim told investigators that prishners attempted to retrieve their children 512 00:27:36,960 --> 00:27:40,560 Speaker 4: from childcare. And I didn't know about this either, but 513 00:27:40,720 --> 00:27:44,240 Speaker 4: agitators were blocking the stairs and the parents were unable 514 00:27:44,320 --> 00:27:48,000 Speaker 4: to get their children. So how awful is that that 515 00:27:48,000 --> 00:27:50,600 Speaker 4: that took place that morning? And that also other accounts 516 00:27:50,600 --> 00:27:53,440 Speaker 4: include an agitator telling a child that their parents were 517 00:27:53,560 --> 00:27:56,639 Speaker 4: Nazis who would burn in hell. So this is what 518 00:27:56,640 --> 00:28:00,119 Speaker 4: they're telling the parishioners at church this morning. So they 519 00:28:00,119 --> 00:28:02,560 Speaker 4: talked about how their kids they were terrorized. Their children 520 00:28:02,560 --> 00:28:05,720 Speaker 4: were weeping, college students, young women were sobbing. It was impactful. 521 00:28:05,880 --> 00:28:07,320 Speaker 4: It's going to take time to work through. So this 522 00:28:07,359 --> 00:28:10,480 Speaker 4: is all a recent affidavid that is attached to the case. 523 00:28:10,520 --> 00:28:12,640 Speaker 4: So there's an update there on alphanws dot org. 524 00:28:13,160 --> 00:28:15,879 Speaker 2: As we continue to move through the stories available at 525 00:28:15,920 --> 00:28:18,679 Speaker 2: Alpha news dot org, something we were talking about at 526 00:28:18,800 --> 00:28:22,280 Speaker 2: length yesterday and a story that we were anticipating after 527 00:28:22,320 --> 00:28:25,440 Speaker 2: the conversation that we had at seven thirty with Representative 528 00:28:25,680 --> 00:28:28,000 Speaker 2: Elliott Ingen shedding light on this. But you can listen 529 00:28:28,040 --> 00:28:33,200 Speaker 2: to on the podcast. But we do have confirmations confirmation 530 00:28:33,280 --> 00:28:37,639 Speaker 2: from the FBI looking into these anti ICEIS signal chats 531 00:28:37,640 --> 00:28:41,040 Speaker 2: here in Minnesota and also including whether or not you know, 532 00:28:41,120 --> 00:28:45,200 Speaker 2: members of the Democrat Party, the Walls administration elected officials 533 00:28:46,000 --> 00:28:49,560 Speaker 2: have been a part in these ISAs signal chats as well. 534 00:28:49,560 --> 00:28:51,040 Speaker 2: I know you guys have a story up about this 535 00:28:51,080 --> 00:28:52,280 Speaker 2: too at Alphanus dot org. 536 00:28:53,640 --> 00:28:55,480 Speaker 4: Yeah, and this is something I mean, I know we've 537 00:28:55,480 --> 00:28:57,960 Speaker 4: talked about. We talked about this months ago, John, I 538 00:28:58,000 --> 00:29:00,800 Speaker 4: mean you remember, like, how how are these groups getting 539 00:29:00,800 --> 00:29:03,400 Speaker 4: away with us? They're encouraging this behavior. And this was 540 00:29:03,440 --> 00:29:06,920 Speaker 4: even before the you know, horrible situation with Rene Good. 541 00:29:07,120 --> 00:29:08,760 Speaker 11: So this has been going on for such a long time. 542 00:29:08,800 --> 00:29:09,920 Speaker 11: Now it seems like signal is. 543 00:29:09,920 --> 00:29:13,040 Speaker 4: You know, where they're they're organized, organizing primarily, but you 544 00:29:13,040 --> 00:29:16,840 Speaker 4: could see all these databases before the license plates they're tracking. Obviously, 545 00:29:16,840 --> 00:29:20,680 Speaker 4: there's more officers federal officers here now than ever before. 546 00:29:20,760 --> 00:29:24,880 Speaker 4: But but is anybody doing anything to break up these 547 00:29:24,880 --> 00:29:26,920 Speaker 4: groups or to stop this on the front end, I 548 00:29:26,920 --> 00:29:29,440 Speaker 4: guess that is the question. But you know, some people 549 00:29:29,480 --> 00:29:32,840 Speaker 4: are saying that that Peggy Flanagan is involved. Some people 550 00:29:32,840 --> 00:29:34,400 Speaker 4: were kind of saying, oh my gosh, we've been outed. 551 00:29:34,480 --> 00:29:37,160 Speaker 4: We now have to leave the country. Her office says 552 00:29:37,640 --> 00:29:41,240 Speaker 4: it's not her online we do know, however, it seems 553 00:29:41,240 --> 00:29:44,360 Speaker 4: that other lawmakers are a part of this. You know, 554 00:29:44,400 --> 00:29:48,240 Speaker 4: they're calling it signal gate now, you know, training these 555 00:29:48,400 --> 00:29:53,920 Speaker 4: anti ice agitators, giving them as supplies, teaching them in 556 00:29:53,920 --> 00:29:57,760 Speaker 4: some cases how to get to insert themselves in these 557 00:29:57,880 --> 00:29:59,960 Speaker 4: arrests that we're we're seeing play out. But yeah, you're right, 558 00:30:00,080 --> 00:30:02,280 Speaker 4: the FBI has acknowledged that they are investigating. But I 559 00:30:02,320 --> 00:30:05,160 Speaker 4: just wonder on a local level, as anybody taking a 560 00:30:05,200 --> 00:30:06,479 Speaker 4: look at this at all. I don't even think this 561 00:30:06,520 --> 00:30:09,280 Speaker 4: is a story that the mainstream media Minnesota has talked 562 00:30:09,320 --> 00:30:11,600 Speaker 4: about at all, of course not. 563 00:30:11,840 --> 00:30:13,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, No, it feels like there's a lot of catchup 564 00:30:13,480 --> 00:30:16,560 Speaker 2: going on, and this seems to be the And I'm 565 00:30:16,600 --> 00:30:19,640 Speaker 2: still very much of the opinion that the whole reason 566 00:30:19,640 --> 00:30:23,760 Speaker 2: why these conversations ended up taking place with part of 567 00:30:23,760 --> 00:30:26,560 Speaker 2: the reason why these conversations took place between Trump Fry 568 00:30:26,680 --> 00:30:29,120 Speaker 2: and Walls this week and why there's been a change is, 569 00:30:29,480 --> 00:30:31,240 Speaker 2: you know, I think there's some dynamics on the ground 570 00:30:31,240 --> 00:30:33,640 Speaker 2: that the President wanted change. She said as much in 571 00:30:33,680 --> 00:30:38,200 Speaker 2: the interviews that he conducted yesterday. But I also think 572 00:30:38,240 --> 00:30:41,720 Speaker 2: that's because everybody knows what we're talking about here, and 573 00:30:41,720 --> 00:30:44,360 Speaker 2: that the situation is getting out of hand because of 574 00:30:44,400 --> 00:30:49,320 Speaker 2: these well organized, well trained, apparently with manuals and well 575 00:30:49,360 --> 00:30:52,200 Speaker 2: equipped group of individuals that are causing the problems. The 576 00:30:52,280 --> 00:30:54,920 Speaker 2: dynamics shifted, and I'm convinced that's part of the reason 577 00:30:54,960 --> 00:30:57,120 Speaker 2: why you had, for lack of a better way to 578 00:30:57,120 --> 00:31:01,480 Speaker 2: describe it, Liz, sort of a Kumbaya moment between between 579 00:31:01,520 --> 00:31:03,120 Speaker 2: Walls and UH and the President. 580 00:31:03,960 --> 00:31:07,960 Speaker 4: And you did have Renee Goods wife or I guess 581 00:31:07,960 --> 00:31:10,320 Speaker 4: she wasn't married, but partner who was a part of 582 00:31:10,400 --> 00:31:13,160 Speaker 4: one of the anti ice groups that was confirmed. You 583 00:31:13,200 --> 00:31:17,000 Speaker 4: have Alex pretty now allegedly belonging to this one of 584 00:31:17,000 --> 00:31:20,520 Speaker 4: the signaled chat groups as well. He, you know, we 585 00:31:20,640 --> 00:31:24,680 Speaker 4: learned yesterday suffered a broken rib during a separate confrontation 586 00:31:24,880 --> 00:31:28,480 Speaker 4: with federal agents the week week earlier, and even I 587 00:31:28,520 --> 00:31:32,760 Speaker 4: will say that. In that conversation with Branca as part 588 00:31:32,800 --> 00:31:35,640 Speaker 4: of the podcast, he talked about that that you know, 589 00:31:35,680 --> 00:31:38,680 Speaker 4: this is an insurrection. You you know, you have to 590 00:31:39,080 --> 00:31:40,480 Speaker 4: you have to get get at this, and that's going 591 00:31:40,520 --> 00:31:42,560 Speaker 4: to play a role in these you know, in these 592 00:31:42,640 --> 00:31:46,960 Speaker 4: cases as well, if there was this you know, encouragement 593 00:31:47,120 --> 00:31:50,360 Speaker 4: training that was happening behind the scenes, as it seems 594 00:31:50,400 --> 00:31:52,080 Speaker 4: that that is the case. 595 00:31:52,440 --> 00:31:52,760 Speaker 16: I am. 596 00:31:52,880 --> 00:31:55,120 Speaker 2: I know, I fully expect that, you know, we'll get 597 00:31:55,120 --> 00:31:58,480 Speaker 2: past this ice situation. At some point fraud will become 598 00:31:58,600 --> 00:32:00,600 Speaker 2: you know, the story once again. Know we're waiting for 599 00:32:00,600 --> 00:32:04,040 Speaker 2: these federal investigations to yield results. I assume that over 600 00:32:04,080 --> 00:32:05,800 Speaker 2: at off of News, you guys are still working behind 601 00:32:05,800 --> 00:32:07,400 Speaker 2: the scenes on the fraud story, even though in the 602 00:32:07,480 --> 00:32:09,280 Speaker 2: midst of all this it's kind of taking a back seat. 603 00:32:10,080 --> 00:32:12,480 Speaker 4: I will say, we have a couple very big fraud 604 00:32:12,520 --> 00:32:14,200 Speaker 4: stories coming soon. 605 00:32:14,840 --> 00:32:17,920 Speaker 11: I was aware of that one this week and another. 606 00:32:18,000 --> 00:32:22,000 Speaker 4: But you know, I will say that that's the fear 607 00:32:22,080 --> 00:32:23,840 Speaker 4: I've I've heard from a lot of state state workers 608 00:32:23,880 --> 00:32:25,920 Speaker 4: and even members of BLAW enforcement too, that you know, 609 00:32:25,960 --> 00:32:29,000 Speaker 4: don't let don't let this go anywhere. And I really 610 00:32:29,040 --> 00:32:30,960 Speaker 4: don't think I agree with you I actually heard some 611 00:32:31,000 --> 00:32:33,480 Speaker 4: of your analysis just a little while ago, but I don't. 612 00:32:33,320 --> 00:32:35,920 Speaker 11: Think it is it is going anywhere. It is too massive. 613 00:32:35,960 --> 00:32:38,360 Speaker 4: And my thought is, is that why you know some 614 00:32:38,400 --> 00:32:41,320 Speaker 4: of these officers are still here. Is something going to 615 00:32:41,360 --> 00:32:45,280 Speaker 4: happen that they're worried about unrest related to arrest there? 616 00:32:45,320 --> 00:32:48,400 Speaker 4: But you know me, I'm the conspiracy theorist, right wing lunatics. 617 00:32:48,400 --> 00:32:50,520 Speaker 4: So who knows that's right? With the with with with 618 00:32:50,560 --> 00:32:54,200 Speaker 4: a husband that reviews burgers. So there you. 619 00:32:54,160 --> 00:32:54,680 Speaker 2: Go, that's me. 620 00:32:54,800 --> 00:32:55,239 Speaker 11: You got it. 621 00:32:55,280 --> 00:32:57,120 Speaker 2: When it comes to the fraud story, Liz, we'll just that, 622 00:32:57,200 --> 00:32:59,720 Speaker 2: we'll end on this. It's like that money is still gone, 623 00:33:00,200 --> 00:33:02,760 Speaker 2: so it's not going anywhere. It's still going to be 624 00:33:02,800 --> 00:33:06,200 Speaker 2: a time discussion. It's it's still not here, and it's 625 00:33:06,200 --> 00:33:09,800 Speaker 2: probably a lot more than what we even forecast, and 626 00:33:09,840 --> 00:33:12,000 Speaker 2: so it's just a matter of time. And I, you know, 627 00:33:12,080 --> 00:33:14,600 Speaker 2: I do believe this pause is probably a good thing, 628 00:33:14,640 --> 00:33:17,600 Speaker 2: because otherwise it just ends up, you know, the local 629 00:33:17,640 --> 00:33:21,040 Speaker 2: media ends up becoming even less less interested in it, 630 00:33:21,200 --> 00:33:24,440 Speaker 2: even though they were already disinterested in it. Now kind 631 00:33:24,440 --> 00:33:26,280 Speaker 2: of gives a moment a pause so that when new 632 00:33:26,320 --> 00:33:30,720 Speaker 2: revelations do pop up or we re examine older revelations, 633 00:33:30,760 --> 00:33:33,520 Speaker 2: it comes off as fresh. So i'm i'm I would 634 00:33:33,560 --> 00:33:35,920 Speaker 2: like less carnage, I would like less death, I would 635 00:33:35,960 --> 00:33:38,400 Speaker 2: like less violence taking place. But the break from the 636 00:33:38,400 --> 00:33:40,680 Speaker 2: fraud I think is okay at this point. Yeah. 637 00:33:40,720 --> 00:33:41,920 Speaker 11: Actually, it's very interesting. 638 00:33:42,520 --> 00:33:44,800 Speaker 4: You know, you had sort of this scramble that happened 639 00:33:44,840 --> 00:33:49,800 Speaker 4: after the Shirley videos. We had fully you know, we 640 00:33:49,840 --> 00:33:53,800 Speaker 4: had fully staffed autism centers and daycares and all the 641 00:33:53,880 --> 00:33:56,120 Speaker 4: all the kids were back, and we've heard that, you know, 642 00:33:56,400 --> 00:33:58,320 Speaker 4: these places now sait empty yet again. 643 00:33:58,440 --> 00:34:01,360 Speaker 11: So I think there's is more to come. 644 00:34:02,080 --> 00:34:05,120 Speaker 2: Let's call it alphanewsoffhanews dot ORGA take care of yourself, 645 00:34:05,160 --> 00:34:06,400 Speaker 2: be safe out there.

How do you feel about this 655 00:34:26,880 --> 00:34:33,000 Speaker 1: self proclaimed the Minnesota Resistance co opting the Star Wars 656 00:34:33,120 --> 00:34:36,719 Speaker 1: rebellion logo and superimposing a lunin to it. 657 00:34:38,200 --> 00:34:41,680 Speaker 2: You are the talkback of the day. Thank you so much, 658 00:34:42,080 --> 00:34:45,239 Speaker 2: Andrew for that so for asking that question again. Brought 659 00:34:45,239 --> 00:34:49,239 Speaker 2: to you by minileafanmnileaf dot com. I don't let it 660 00:34:49,280 --> 00:34:54,120 Speaker 2: affect my love of Star Wars. I get annoyed when 661 00:34:54,120 --> 00:34:57,800 Speaker 2: I see things like pop culture co opted and people 662 00:34:57,800 --> 00:34:59,759 Speaker 2: want to go and place their political views on top 663 00:34:59,800 --> 00:35:01,719 Speaker 2: of it, because I don't like when we go and 664 00:35:01,760 --> 00:35:05,880 Speaker 2: politicize everything to that point. Often when I see stuff 665 00:35:05,920 --> 00:35:08,680 Speaker 2: like this, to me, it signals that you really don't 666 00:35:08,680 --> 00:35:10,200 Speaker 2: have much of an argument if you need to go 667 00:35:10,239 --> 00:35:12,920 Speaker 2: to this length to try to create the imagery that 668 00:35:12,960 --> 00:35:15,600 Speaker 2: you can adhere to. And it also plays into that 669 00:35:15,640 --> 00:35:18,120 Speaker 2: live action role playing stance that I've taken that so 670 00:35:18,200 --> 00:35:22,759 Speaker 2: many people seem to be adopting with this. They get 671 00:35:22,760 --> 00:35:24,600 Speaker 2: a kick out of it. They actually get a rise 672 00:35:24,600 --> 00:35:26,319 Speaker 2: out of this, They get a dopamine hit out of this. 673 00:35:26,400 --> 00:35:29,000 Speaker 2: So it doesn't bother me. I think it's stupid more 674 00:35:29,000 --> 00:35:31,680 Speaker 2: than anything, but I don't let it interrupt my joy 675 00:35:32,120 --> 00:35:35,120 Speaker 2: of Star Wars. All right, let's wrap on this. We 676 00:35:35,120 --> 00:35:39,880 Speaker 2: were talking about FBI director confirming the investigation into anti 677 00:35:39,920 --> 00:35:42,440 Speaker 2: I signal chats in Minnesota. I want to end on 678 00:35:42,480 --> 00:35:45,480 Speaker 2: this piece of audio. This is investigative journalist James O'Keefe 679 00:35:45,960 --> 00:35:49,880 Speaker 2: talking with Megan Kelly yesterday revealing the leftist network in 680 00:35:50,080 --> 00:35:54,399 Speaker 2: Minneapolis and what happened to him when he came to Minneapolis. 681 00:35:54,440 --> 00:35:55,799 Speaker 2: Just recently listened to this. 682 00:35:56,200 --> 00:36:00,759 Speaker 17: And I am shocked and amazed at how organized they are. 683 00:36:00,800 --> 00:36:05,799 Speaker 17: I've never seen anything like this. Every vehicle downtown they're 684 00:36:05,840 --> 00:36:09,919 Speaker 17: able to track, run the plates, confirm who they are, 685 00:36:10,560 --> 00:36:13,239 Speaker 17: get their ID like they did in my case they 686 00:36:13,320 --> 00:36:15,640 Speaker 17: ran my license plate. We're trying to figure out how 687 00:36:15,640 --> 00:36:17,000 Speaker 17: they're able to do that where they have someone on 688 00:36:17,040 --> 00:36:20,600 Speaker 17: the inside of a rental car company, et cetera, and communicate. 689 00:36:20,000 --> 00:36:21,000 Speaker 2: With each other about it. 690 00:36:21,360 --> 00:36:24,920 Speaker 17: And when I got out of my vehicle, this is 691 00:36:24,960 --> 00:36:28,080 Speaker 17: like eleven thirty in the morning, just after the shooting 692 00:36:28,120 --> 00:36:31,919 Speaker 17: and before the autonomous zone, within seconds there were five 693 00:36:31,960 --> 00:36:37,560 Speaker 17: of them standing outside of a relatively inconspicuous vehicle interrogating me, 694 00:36:37,680 --> 00:36:40,480 Speaker 17: asking to see my identification. So I got to give 695 00:36:40,520 --> 00:36:45,520 Speaker 17: them them credit. Megan, I've never seen anything in my life. 696 00:36:45,719 --> 00:36:47,920 Speaker 17: I don't think any of us has ever seen a 697 00:36:47,960 --> 00:36:51,080 Speaker 17: group of people more organized. And I warned people, because 698 00:36:51,120 --> 00:36:53,840 Speaker 17: people are attempted to say, well, this is funded, and honestly, Megan, 699 00:36:53,880 --> 00:36:55,600 Speaker 17: what I think and what I believe to be true 700 00:36:56,080 --> 00:36:59,000 Speaker 17: is there isn't some one boogeyman funding all of this 701 00:36:59,760 --> 00:37:02,799 Speaker 17: aose network of NGOs, some of which indirectly get funds 702 00:37:02,800 --> 00:37:06,160 Speaker 17: from our government. But they people actually really believe in 703 00:37:06,200 --> 00:37:09,600 Speaker 17: their cause, and it's a cause that it appears to 704 00:37:09,640 --> 00:37:11,879 Speaker 17: me that they're willing to live and die for, which 705 00:37:11,920 --> 00:37:15,640 Speaker 17: is I think more terrifying than one guy funding them 706 00:37:15,640 --> 00:37:16,719 Speaker 17: in a transactional way. 707 00:37:16,920 --> 00:37:19,759 Speaker 2: One of the great tragedies in all of this is 708 00:37:19,800 --> 00:37:23,400 Speaker 2: that when there is a horrific event that takes place 709 00:37:23,440 --> 00:37:25,560 Speaker 2: and there's a loss of life, I mean, it seems 710 00:37:25,560 --> 00:37:27,839 Speaker 2: like an eternity ago, but it really wasn't that long 711 00:37:28,160 --> 00:37:31,719 Speaker 2: when we had that horrific shooting that took place at 712 00:37:31,719 --> 00:37:35,319 Speaker 2: the Catholic church. What are the times when Minnesota went 713 00:37:35,400 --> 00:37:38,440 Speaker 2: and dominated the headlines and all the talk was about 714 00:37:38,560 --> 00:37:41,719 Speaker 2: the individual? You know, what was that individual about? What 715 00:37:41,840 --> 00:37:44,360 Speaker 2: inspired them to go and do all of this to 716 00:37:45,080 --> 00:37:50,280 Speaker 2: you know, to wreak this havoc, to murder, innocence children, adults. 717 00:37:51,680 --> 00:37:53,719 Speaker 2: There's a desire to get into the mindset of those 718 00:37:53,760 --> 00:37:56,120 Speaker 2: individuals and try to stop that from happening. That's all 719 00:37:56,160 --> 00:37:58,840 Speaker 2: absent from all this commentary of the individuals that are 720 00:37:58,880 --> 00:38:04,000 Speaker 2: out there getting themselves hurt, getting themselves killed. There is 721 00:38:04,080 --> 00:38:07,480 Speaker 2: no discussion and there should be about these agitators like 722 00:38:07,520 --> 00:38:09,920 Speaker 2: what James o'keith is talking about in this video, what's 723 00:38:10,000 --> 00:38:13,839 Speaker 2: laid out from Fox News and Alpha News. That's the 724 00:38:13,880 --> 00:38:17,080 Speaker 2: story we should be talking about right now, because they're 725 00:38:17,080 --> 00:38:19,759 Speaker 2: the ones that are causing all the problem and agitating 726 00:38:19,800 --> 00:38:24,040 Speaker 2: those individuals out there lawfully conducting their law enforcement.
