So I figured I'd 27 00:01:21,840 --> 00:01:24,240 Speaker 3: pick up a phone call and oh, toop what I. 28 00:01:24,240 --> 00:01:26,920 Speaker 1: Was doing, Sore, You go, oh, we're on the phone 29 00:01:26,959 --> 00:01:29,720 Speaker 1: with you.

Chris. I 34 00:01:42,400 --> 00:01:46,960 Speaker 1: wanted to start tonight, and I know your angle is 35 00:01:47,600 --> 00:01:52,160 Speaker 1: the fact that Hispanic people, Hispanic citizens of this country 36 00:01:53,160 --> 00:01:59,600 Speaker 1: want illegals out too, especially illegal criminals. But I wanted 37 00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:07,640 Speaker 1: to I wanted to point out what Democrats continue to 38 00:02:07,680 --> 00:02:12,840 Speaker 1: do and what their Republican counterparts seem to Uh. It 39 00:02:12,880 --> 00:02:17,560 Speaker 1: seems like Republicans want to be the minority even when 40 00:02:17,560 --> 00:02:20,800 Speaker 1: they're in the majority. Do you find that to be true? 41 00:02:22,040 --> 00:02:26,400 Speaker 3: Yes, I think the Democrats aren't interested in governing because 42 00:02:26,440 --> 00:02:31,760 Speaker 3: they believe in ruling. The Republicans have forgotten how to govern. 43 00:02:32,680 --> 00:02:36,959 Speaker 3: They seem to be doing better fundraising when they're in 44 00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:41,960 Speaker 3: the minority. They can't make the tough calls. I'm going 45 00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:43,840 Speaker 3: through something. I don't know how much you've seen about 46 00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:46,880 Speaker 3: what's happening in Texas, but there was a rather big 47 00:02:46,919 --> 00:02:50,760 Speaker 3: political earthquake and a special election in a solidly read 48 00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:53,720 Speaker 3: district and a Senate district for a local I'm sorry 49 00:02:53,800 --> 00:02:58,359 Speaker 3: state race. The senator. The Republican senator lost the election 50 00:02:59,520 --> 00:03:01,760 Speaker 3: to a Demo, solidly read area. 51 00:03:01,919 --> 00:03:03,760 Speaker 1: This is in state Senate in Texas. 52 00:03:04,680 --> 00:03:10,440 Speaker 3: Yes, State Senate a district nine. And it's sending a 53 00:03:10,440 --> 00:03:14,160 Speaker 3: political earthquake because a lot of people are reading into this, 54 00:03:14,720 --> 00:03:19,320 Speaker 3: and you know, for me, it just seems that there 55 00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:21,440 Speaker 3: are a lot of people on the Republican side, the 56 00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:24,280 Speaker 3: voters who say, you know, Trump's got this and I 57 00:03:24,320 --> 00:03:27,040 Speaker 3: can go back to my life. I don't think they 58 00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:31,040 Speaker 3: realize how much is at stake. And I think the 59 00:03:31,120 --> 00:03:34,679 Speaker 3: Democrats at this point are more committed to destroying America 60 00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:37,480 Speaker 3: than the Republican voters are to saving America. 61 00:03:37,680 --> 00:03:41,880 Speaker 1: Well, I think it's important to remind people what Democrats 62 00:03:42,360 --> 00:03:46,120 Speaker 1: almost always do, and what they're continuing to do not 63 00:03:46,160 --> 00:03:48,960 Speaker 1: only in Texas but in every state where they are elected, 64 00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:53,280 Speaker 1: and they have power, in fact, almost all power. In 65 00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:56,480 Speaker 1: a state like Virginia, for example, we had the elections 66 00:03:56,920 --> 00:04:02,119 Speaker 1: this past November where famously Abigail Spamberger won the governor's 67 00:04:02,200 --> 00:04:04,760 Speaker 1: race in Virginia. And there's a man I don't know 68 00:04:04,760 --> 00:04:08,600 Speaker 1: if you're familiar with him named Alejandro Burciaga. What a 69 00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:12,600 Speaker 1: Facebook post who lives in Virginia, And I just wanted 70 00:04:12,640 --> 00:04:15,080 Speaker 1: to play a little bit of that for you and 71 00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:17,320 Speaker 1: get your comments afterward. Is that okay? 72 00:04:18,320 --> 00:04:18,480 Speaker 2: Sure? 73 00:04:18,640 --> 00:04:18,960 Speaker 1: All right? 74 00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:19,120 Speaker 5: Here? 75 00:04:19,160 --> 00:04:21,679 Speaker 6: It is Democrats in Virginia complete control. 76 00:04:21,920 --> 00:04:24,000 Speaker 7: In those two weeks, not only have they passed more 77 00:04:24,040 --> 00:04:28,400 Speaker 7: than fifty new taxes, but they've also given themselves. 78 00:04:28,080 --> 00:04:29,719 Speaker 6: One hundred and fifty percent raise. 79 00:04:30,120 --> 00:04:32,120 Speaker 7: Is this what you voted for? Let me just tell 80 00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:34,479 Speaker 7: you some of these taxes. The first off, they added 81 00:04:34,480 --> 00:04:37,919 Speaker 7: additional local sales tax. They added new personal and property 82 00:04:37,960 --> 00:04:41,120 Speaker 7: tax on electric leaf blowers and electric landscape equipment, so 83 00:04:41,200 --> 00:04:43,360 Speaker 7: if you went green instead of using the gas. 84 00:04:43,120 --> 00:04:44,880 Speaker 6: Power, you're about to pay for it. 85 00:04:44,960 --> 00:04:48,080 Speaker 7: There's a new employer tax, a new gun and AMMO tax, 86 00:04:48,200 --> 00:04:49,520 Speaker 7: a delivery tax. 87 00:04:49,279 --> 00:04:51,960 Speaker 6: Which will hits you have used Uber eats, door Dash. 88 00:04:51,960 --> 00:04:56,840 Speaker 7: Amazon, investment income tax and event tax. A concert tax, 89 00:04:57,080 --> 00:05:00,600 Speaker 7: a storage facility tax, so if you have stuff in storage, 90 00:05:00,720 --> 00:05:02,520 Speaker 7: you got to pay an extra tax for that, A 91 00:05:02,720 --> 00:05:04,080 Speaker 7: gym membership tax. 92 00:05:04,240 --> 00:05:06,080 Speaker 6: Can't have y'all getting healthy or anything. 93 00:05:06,320 --> 00:05:11,159 Speaker 7: A dog walking tax and a dog grooming tax, counseling tax. 94 00:05:11,279 --> 00:05:13,839 Speaker 7: You know, for those of you that are seeing a therapist, 95 00:05:14,160 --> 00:05:17,080 Speaker 7: new digital personal property tax, they haven't given us. 96 00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:18,159 Speaker 6: The details on that one. 97 00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:21,880 Speaker 7: A new car tax, a used car tax.

And then remember, for all of 101 00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:37,480 Speaker 7: their efforts, they gave themselves a one hundred and fifty 102 00:05:37,560 --> 00:05:41,359 Speaker 7: percent raids. This is what you get when democrats have 103 00:05:41,520 --> 00:05:42,760 Speaker 7: complete power. 104 00:05:43,400 --> 00:05:46,080 Speaker 1: There you go, This is what you get when democrats 105 00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:50,200 Speaker 1: have complete power. Should should Republicans who are running for 106 00:05:50,320 --> 00:05:53,120 Speaker 1: office remind people of this, Chris. 107 00:05:54,200 --> 00:05:54,799 Speaker 8: They should. 108 00:05:56,080 --> 00:05:59,920 Speaker 3: But sadly, what you're seeing from the Republican establishment in 109 00:06:00,200 --> 00:06:05,040 Speaker 3: Washington is deference to everything that you've just heard. What 110 00:06:05,720 --> 00:06:08,840 Speaker 3: you're seeing, I mean, even even President Trump just did 111 00:06:08,880 --> 00:06:12,520 Speaker 3: a deal with to reward Democrats for their historic and 112 00:06:13,360 --> 00:06:17,640 Speaker 3: un American opposition to Ice. That the Democrats are out 113 00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:23,400 Speaker 3: right now protesting and threatening to defund those who are 114 00:06:23,400 --> 00:06:27,680 Speaker 3: protecting American citizens criminally legal aliens, and a deal was 115 00:06:27,720 --> 00:06:31,279 Speaker 3: just struck with them to recognize they're very how upset 116 00:06:31,279 --> 00:06:33,120 Speaker 3: the Democrats are, rather than defeating them. 117 00:06:33,480 --> 00:06:33,919 Speaker 2: So I. 118 00:06:35,720 --> 00:06:39,919 Speaker 3: Don't have high hopes for the Republicans' ability to drive 119 00:06:39,960 --> 00:06:44,440 Speaker 3: the point home. The Democrats have a motion on their side. 120 00:06:44,920 --> 00:06:47,160 Speaker 3: The Republicans can't seem. 121 00:06:46,880 --> 00:06:47,840 Speaker 9: To drive the point home. 122 00:06:48,320 --> 00:06:50,480 Speaker 3: Do you remember all the damage the Democrats did the 123 00:06:50,600 --> 00:06:54,800 Speaker 3: last time they had power. It seems everybody's forgotten. Because 124 00:06:55,080 --> 00:06:58,839 Speaker 3: gas prices are falling, grocery prices are following. Everybody thinks 125 00:06:58,839 --> 00:07:01,680 Speaker 3: that we're getting back to the business as usual, to 126 00:07:01,720 --> 00:07:05,640 Speaker 3: being America again, and nobody remembers that it can all 127 00:07:05,720 --> 00:07:08,839 Speaker 3: change on a dime if Democrats are in power again, 128 00:07:08,960 --> 00:07:12,080 Speaker 3: the same way it did when Beijing. Biden occupied the 129 00:07:12,080 --> 00:07:14,240 Speaker 3: Oval Office with President Auto. 130 00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:19,440 Speaker 1: Pen Well, I mean, and we saw the total Basically, 131 00:07:20,400 --> 00:07:23,239 Speaker 1: the Democrats are screaming about taking away the first, second, 132 00:07:23,320 --> 00:07:27,400 Speaker 1: and fourth Amendments to the Constitution with enforcement of federal 133 00:07:27,520 --> 00:07:33,360 Speaker 1: laws when it comes to relieving criminal immigrants, illegal immigrants 134 00:07:33,920 --> 00:07:38,640 Speaker 1: of their status as being in America. And you know, 135 00:07:38,680 --> 00:07:41,600 Speaker 1: there are all these useful idiots who are following along 136 00:07:42,400 --> 00:07:46,280 Speaker 1: and being paid to protest and the like and challenging 137 00:07:46,440 --> 00:07:51,600 Speaker 1: federal law enforcement officers, be they Ice, be the CPB, whoever. 138 00:07:52,720 --> 00:07:59,360 Speaker 1: And we've got Senators like Lindsey Graham who are being 139 00:07:59,640 --> 00:08:02,360 Speaker 1: who are usually you know, hardline, who are being kind 140 00:08:02,360 --> 00:08:05,520 Speaker 1: of limpested in this this deal to get the budget 141 00:08:05,560 --> 00:08:09,560 Speaker 1: passed through.

And they're they're blocking 151 00:08:54,720 --> 00:08:59,520 Speaker 1: them from doing that job. And these Republicans, as you 152 00:08:59,679 --> 00:09:04,880 Speaker 1: just mentioned, are going along with the Democrats to try 153 00:09:05,600 --> 00:09:08,800 Speaker 1: because there was a switch in the wind and the 154 00:09:08,840 --> 00:09:11,079 Speaker 1: media narrative is not going their way. 155 00:09:12,200 --> 00:09:16,200 Speaker 9: It's yeah, not just not just with Ice. 156 00:09:16,520 --> 00:09:21,800 Speaker 3: You just had eleven air quote Republican senators side with 157 00:09:21,960 --> 00:09:25,760 Speaker 3: the Democrats against an amendment from Mike Lee that would 158 00:09:25,800 --> 00:09:31,240 Speaker 3: have eliminated funding for the United States African Development Foundation Wait, 159 00:09:32,559 --> 00:09:37,360 Speaker 3: which is more foreign money being sent overseas when we're 160 00:09:37,480 --> 00:09:40,839 Speaker 3: running close to a thirty eight trillion dollar debt. You 161 00:09:41,120 --> 00:09:45,240 Speaker 3: just had a bunch of Republicans defect with Democrats to 162 00:09:45,360 --> 00:09:51,840 Speaker 3: continue funding all manner of shall we say, government programs 163 00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:56,200 Speaker 3: that at best are unnecessary, at worst out and out 164 00:09:56,320 --> 00:10:00,360 Speaker 3: fraud generators. And I think I have said this after 165 00:10:00,400 --> 00:10:02,880 Speaker 3: the Big Beautiful Bill. There was great stuff in it, 166 00:10:03,360 --> 00:10:07,679 Speaker 3: but let's not forget it overspent even more money than 167 00:10:07,760 --> 00:10:11,760 Speaker 3: Democrats did, so that Republicans are now on record overspending 168 00:10:11,920 --> 00:10:16,040 Speaker 3: far and above what Democrats overspent. And I have been 169 00:10:16,080 --> 00:10:19,959 Speaker 3: saying we cannot have the price for good government be 170 00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:23,000 Speaker 3: we have to fund all of the Democrats fraud. But 171 00:10:23,120 --> 00:10:26,440 Speaker 3: sadly Republicans are saying, if you want the good stuff. 172 00:10:26,480 --> 00:10:28,960 Speaker 3: You've got to fund all of the Democrats fraud, and 173 00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:30,199 Speaker 3: I think it's unacceptable. 174 00:10:30,920 --> 00:10:34,920 Speaker 1: Well, we're only thirty eight trillion dollars in debt, Chris, Yeah. 175 00:10:34,720 --> 00:10:38,199 Speaker 3: Only only Yeah, the surrounding era in Washington. 176 00:10:38,280 --> 00:10:42,079 Speaker 1: Yeah, jeez, they get rid of the penny, but they 177 00:10:42,120 --> 00:10:45,960 Speaker 1: can't get a ray rid of a couple of trillion 178 00:10:46,040 --> 00:10:48,760 Speaker 1: dollars in debt that doesn't need to be spent, that 179 00:10:48,880 --> 00:10:51,200 Speaker 1: goes out the doors, as you said, to foreign shores 180 00:10:51,600 --> 00:10:55,920 Speaker 1: and is basically you know, dose was such a great thing. 181 00:10:56,160 --> 00:11:00,120 Speaker 1: It was such a great concept. But it seems like 182 00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:05,400 Speaker 1: like after they kind of did their little show, uh, 183 00:11:05,800 --> 00:11:09,319 Speaker 1: the whole Doge mentality has completely gone away in Washington, 184 00:11:09,440 --> 00:11:12,520 Speaker 1: DC all of a sudden. It only took it only 185 00:11:12,520 --> 00:11:16,959 Speaker 1: took what nine months or so, and nobody remembers how 186 00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:20,840 Speaker 1: successful they were at finding and just just tip of 187 00:11:20,840 --> 00:11:24,200 Speaker 1: the Iceberg fraud that was going on to you. 188 00:11:24,880 --> 00:11:27,600 Speaker 3: Said, that was the crime, that was the crime. You 189 00:11:27,840 --> 00:11:31,360 Speaker 3: found all the fraud, You exposed the fraud. So now 190 00:11:31,400 --> 00:11:34,520 Speaker 3: the effort is on by both Republicans and Democrats to 191 00:11:34,600 --> 00:11:38,840 Speaker 3: stop talking about it because you know, somebody's particular ox 192 00:11:38,920 --> 00:11:43,000 Speaker 3: dot Gord and Frankly it's the American taxpayers and our 193 00:11:43,040 --> 00:11:47,599 Speaker 3: great grandchildren and our great great grandchildren who these individuals, 194 00:11:47,600 --> 00:11:50,520 Speaker 3: for the temporary convenience of today, are ringing up a 195 00:11:50,520 --> 00:11:55,040 Speaker 3: tab that will compromise the ability of this nation to 196 00:11:55,120 --> 00:11:59,160 Speaker 3: be to be solvent in the next couple of generations. 197 00:11:59,320 --> 00:12:02,280 Speaker 3: So they're living I am a hog today knowing they'll 198 00:12:02,320 --> 00:12:05,960 Speaker 3: be long dead when our children, our grandchildren, our great 199 00:12:05,960 --> 00:12:08,920 Speaker 3: grandchildren have to pay the piper for what they've done. 200 00:12:09,120 --> 00:12:10,960 Speaker 1: Tim Walls is not the only one who should be 201 00:12:11,000 --> 00:12:13,600 Speaker 1: prosecuted for knowing the fraud was going on, or maybe 202 00:12:13,640 --> 00:12:16,800 Speaker 1: participating in it and doing nothing about it. I mean, 203 00:12:16,880 --> 00:12:21,720 Speaker 1: Tim Walls has been made a convenient scapegoat because it's 204 00:12:21,800 --> 00:12:25,560 Speaker 1: so obvious. But this stuff is going on all over 205 00:12:25,600 --> 00:12:28,920 Speaker 1: the country, and there are all kinds of elected leaders, 206 00:12:29,000 --> 00:12:32,880 Speaker 1: Republicans and Democrats alike, who know what's going on and 207 00:12:32,960 --> 00:12:37,400 Speaker 1: still have allowed it to continue in perpetuity. 208 00:12:38,520 --> 00:12:42,400 Speaker 3: And we talk about this at great length. What led 209 00:12:42,480 --> 00:12:46,040 Speaker 3: to the rise of the liberty loving Latino? An historic 210 00:12:46,520 --> 00:12:51,240 Speaker 3: election where you know, a bunch of Hispanics, record numbers 211 00:12:51,280 --> 00:12:54,600 Speaker 3: of a majority of males and a forty eight percent 212 00:12:54,760 --> 00:12:58,400 Speaker 3: of the Latino community writ large switched over and stopped 213 00:12:58,440 --> 00:13:02,800 Speaker 3: voting for the Democrats and started going voting for America first, 214 00:13:02,800 --> 00:13:07,240 Speaker 3: not Republicans, but America first. And in the book we 215 00:13:07,280 --> 00:13:10,080 Speaker 3: talk about what got us here and how we keep 216 00:13:10,160 --> 00:13:14,080 Speaker 3: on this winning track. But sadly, I'm afraid to say 217 00:13:14,440 --> 00:13:18,960 Speaker 3: I've got the Republicans and the Democrats working against what 218 00:13:19,080 --> 00:13:20,280 Speaker 3: I'm putting out in that book. 219 00:13:20,400 --> 00:13:23,440 Speaker 1: Well, it is your heritage, Chris. Tell me a little 220 00:13:23,440 --> 00:13:27,320 Speaker 1: bit about your family and and the people that you 221 00:13:27,480 --> 00:13:31,120 Speaker 1: come from that that led you to write this tone 222 00:13:31,679 --> 00:13:35,520 Speaker 1: about the rise of the liberty loving Latino Born. 223 00:13:35,280 --> 00:13:37,920 Speaker 3: And raised in southern California, back before it was the 224 00:13:37,920 --> 00:13:41,680 Speaker 3: People's Republic of California, back when it was back when 225 00:13:41,720 --> 00:13:44,839 Speaker 3: it was when there was sanity ruling the roost there 226 00:13:45,240 --> 00:13:48,920 Speaker 3: came up. I was a Reagan baby, and there was 227 00:13:48,960 --> 00:13:53,960 Speaker 3: always a sense in the household of the opportunity that 228 00:13:54,040 --> 00:13:58,960 Speaker 3: America afforded because some of our family members who were 229 00:13:59,000 --> 00:14:01,760 Speaker 3: not as lucky to be here, uh, were stuck in 230 00:14:01,960 --> 00:14:06,679 Speaker 3: backward countries like Mexico, backward comfort countries in Central and 231 00:14:06,720 --> 00:14:10,120 Speaker 3: in South America. Our family and they send a family 232 00:14:10,559 --> 00:14:13,720 Speaker 3: didn't have the opportunities that were afforded here because they 233 00:14:13,760 --> 00:14:17,000 Speaker 3: had surrendered to left wing thought and left wing extremism, 234 00:14:17,480 --> 00:14:21,239 Speaker 3: and so there was always that sense. There was a 235 00:14:21,600 --> 00:14:24,560 Speaker 3: story I tell in the book about how I remember 236 00:14:24,560 --> 00:14:27,480 Speaker 3: the first time my father. I remember my father cursing. 237 00:14:28,240 --> 00:14:30,840 Speaker 3: I came home from school and I was daddy, Daddy, Daddy, 238 00:14:30,880 --> 00:14:33,920 Speaker 3: I've got I've got this, uh uh, this project I did. 239 00:14:33,920 --> 00:14:36,800 Speaker 3: I had colored a picture of says Oar Chavez. For 240 00:14:36,800 --> 00:14:38,480 Speaker 3: those of you who don't know who says our Javez is. 241 00:14:39,000 --> 00:14:41,160 Speaker 3: The leftists say that he's a civil rights leader. 242 00:14:41,200 --> 00:14:41,720 Speaker 2: That's a lie. 243 00:14:42,280 --> 00:14:45,560 Speaker 3: He was a he was a union leader, and he 244 00:14:45,680 --> 00:14:48,960 Speaker 3: did help better the working conditions on the farms for 245 00:14:49,280 --> 00:14:51,880 Speaker 3: illegal alien and legal folks. 246 00:14:52,360 --> 00:14:53,240 Speaker 4: But he was he was. 247 00:14:53,520 --> 00:14:55,960 Speaker 3: He was also a leftist and a Marxist, and he 248 00:14:56,040 --> 00:14:57,320 Speaker 3: was no civil rights leader. 249 00:14:57,360 --> 00:14:57,720 Speaker 2: Anyway. 250 00:14:58,160 --> 00:15:01,000 Speaker 3: I remember my dad looking down picture and looking over 251 00:15:01,040 --> 00:15:02,920 Speaker 3: at me and I mean, here I am. I think 252 00:15:02,920 --> 00:15:05,680 Speaker 3: I was eight or nine years old, and he says, 253 00:15:05,920 --> 00:15:09,960 Speaker 3: blanking communist and then walks away. That's when I that's 254 00:15:09,960 --> 00:15:12,840 Speaker 3: when I knew I was I was perhaps not being 255 00:15:12,840 --> 00:15:14,760 Speaker 3: told the full story. Inside of gob ed. 256 00:15:16,360 --> 00:15:20,640 Speaker 1: Well, I mean, and it's just like, uh, these kids 257 00:15:20,680 --> 00:15:24,600 Speaker 1: that still will wear t shirts with pictures of Shay 258 00:15:24,640 --> 00:15:29,280 Speaker 1: Grivara on and think he's some kind of revolutionary hero. 259 00:15:29,960 --> 00:15:33,440 Speaker 1: He was a murderous person who worked with Fidel Castro 260 00:15:34,240 --> 00:15:37,840 Speaker 1: to bring communism to Cues Cuba and oppress the people 261 00:15:39,400 --> 00:15:43,000 Speaker 1: who were already you know, being oppressed by the former regime, 262 00:15:44,320 --> 00:15:46,040 Speaker 1: you know, and they were just given a new form 263 00:15:46,080 --> 00:15:50,640 Speaker 1: of oppression in communism. And and they think Shee Gavara 264 00:15:50,760 --> 00:15:54,320 Speaker 1: is some kind of great freedom fighter. 265 00:15:55,360 --> 00:15:58,360 Speaker 3: And the legacy of all leftists, isn't it, I mean, 266 00:15:58,640 --> 00:16:04,280 Speaker 3: isn't violent force? Totalitarianism? Division? That is the hallmark of 267 00:16:04,360 --> 00:16:07,240 Speaker 3: left wingers, whether they are they call themselves communists in 268 00:16:07,280 --> 00:16:14,440 Speaker 3: Cuba or China, whether they call themselves the democratic Socialists, yeah, 269 00:16:14,520 --> 00:16:18,360 Speaker 3: there you go, or the divinely inspired rulers of Iran, 270 00:16:18,720 --> 00:16:24,200 Speaker 3: whatever they call themselves. At bottom, they are totalitarians at heart, 271 00:16:24,560 --> 00:16:28,000 Speaker 3: and they they want you to work against your own 272 00:16:28,040 --> 00:16:31,680 Speaker 3: best interests. That is the hallmark of every leftist, every leftist, 273 00:16:31,680 --> 00:16:33,560 Speaker 3: and every totalitarian throughout human history. 274 00:16:33,720 --> 00:16:36,800 Speaker 1: One hundred million people or more killed in the last 275 00:16:36,840 --> 00:16:40,080 Speaker 1: century by communism all over the globe. 276 00:16:40,960 --> 00:16:41,720 Speaker 2: You know, it's plague. 277 00:16:41,840 --> 00:16:51,200 Speaker 1: It pales, I mean, Hitler pales in comparison by himself, Yes, yeah, 278 00:16:51,680 --> 00:16:54,880 Speaker 1: And it happens over and over again. So what is 279 00:16:54,920 --> 00:16:58,360 Speaker 1: the answer, Chris, I mean, we've got we've well defined 280 00:16:58,360 --> 00:17:02,480 Speaker 1: the problems, and we know what the problem is. Part 281 00:17:02,520 --> 00:17:05,720 Speaker 1: of the subtitle of your book is a New American Revolution. 282 00:17:05,880 --> 00:17:08,960 Speaker 1: What is the revolution? How do we get to where 283 00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:11,439 Speaker 1: we need to be and get back to what the 284 00:17:11,480 --> 00:17:12,560 Speaker 1: founder's envisioned. 285 00:17:13,480 --> 00:17:17,120 Speaker 3: Well, that's the good news because in the New Revolution 286 00:17:17,320 --> 00:17:21,160 Speaker 3: I spoke of was the greatest political revolution to hit 287 00:17:21,160 --> 00:17:24,000 Speaker 3: this country since the formation of Republican Party. And that's 288 00:17:24,000 --> 00:17:28,560 Speaker 3: what I mentioned about this historic by millions, millions of 289 00:17:28,640 --> 00:17:32,240 Speaker 3: Latinos switching from the loss that is the Democrat Party, 290 00:17:32,480 --> 00:17:35,919 Speaker 3: the empty promises, the lies of the Democrat Party, and 291 00:17:35,920 --> 00:17:39,600 Speaker 3: switching over to the America First Coalition. People need to 292 00:17:39,640 --> 00:17:42,560 Speaker 3: recognize that freedom, as Reagan said. 293 00:17:42,440 --> 00:17:44,439 Speaker 2: Is only a generation away from being lost. 294 00:17:44,880 --> 00:17:48,520 Speaker 3: It must be defended again again and then again. And 295 00:17:48,560 --> 00:17:53,480 Speaker 3: they didn't know and recognize the reason why their fortunes 296 00:17:53,560 --> 00:17:56,680 Speaker 3: have dimmed so much as a direct result of government's 297 00:17:56,680 --> 00:17:59,480 Speaker 3: interference in their lives. And one of the beauties of 298 00:17:59,520 --> 00:18:02,280 Speaker 3: the Constance of the United States is that it clearly 299 00:18:02,320 --> 00:18:05,840 Speaker 3: defines what the government can and cannot do. And we 300 00:18:05,920 --> 00:18:09,080 Speaker 3: get back to that we save the United States, we 301 00:18:09,280 --> 00:18:11,680 Speaker 3: pivot away from that, as sadly we have been doing 302 00:18:12,200 --> 00:18:15,440 Speaker 3: in the last two decades with the era of Obama 303 00:18:16,000 --> 00:18:19,320 Speaker 3: President auto pen we divert from that. We'll see our 304 00:18:19,359 --> 00:18:23,679 Speaker 3: fortunes dim in direct proportion to how we deviate away 305 00:18:24,280 --> 00:18:25,600 Speaker 3: from that constitution. 306 00:18:25,840 --> 00:18:30,040 Speaker 1: You'll watch the buzzwords too, because the new talking point 307 00:18:30,119 --> 00:18:33,080 Speaker 1: this weekend, thanks to Hakim Jeffries and sending out all 308 00:18:33,119 --> 00:18:37,399 Speaker 1: of the sheets to all of other Democrats when it 309 00:18:37,480 --> 00:18:41,480 Speaker 1: comes to this budget impass, is that we're using tax 310 00:18:41,600 --> 00:18:48,240 Speaker 1: payer dollars to kill Americans because because two of the 311 00:18:48,280 --> 00:18:53,040 Speaker 1: anti ICE protesters have died sadly in their efforts to 312 00:18:54,160 --> 00:18:57,520 Speaker 1: not only oppose ICE, but to get in their way 313 00:18:57,960 --> 00:19:00,520 Speaker 1: and to threaten Ice and. 314 00:19:01,040 --> 00:19:03,439 Speaker 3: Almost you know that. And that's that's what he leaves 315 00:19:03,480 --> 00:19:06,359 Speaker 3: off the whole. And this is where our people have 316 00:19:06,440 --> 00:19:10,920 Speaker 3: got to start getting informed. I mean this. Hakeem Jefferies 317 00:19:11,000 --> 00:19:13,119 Speaker 3: likes to pretend that a woman didn't get behind the 318 00:19:13,119 --> 00:19:16,239 Speaker 3: wheel and put an ICE officer in the hospital by 319 00:19:16,240 --> 00:19:18,960 Speaker 3: trying to run him over, causing internal bleeding. He likes 320 00:19:19,000 --> 00:19:22,119 Speaker 3: to pretend that these were innocent Americans. They were just 321 00:19:22,240 --> 00:19:27,400 Speaker 3: gunned down because they didn't like immigration law enforced. That's 322 00:19:27,480 --> 00:19:30,920 Speaker 3: not what happened. And frankly, I'm sad to say because 323 00:19:30,960 --> 00:19:33,720 Speaker 3: of the the bias of the press and the stupidity 324 00:19:33,720 --> 00:19:37,679 Speaker 3: of the press putting out more of that that numbskull mentality, 325 00:19:38,560 --> 00:19:40,360 Speaker 3: people have really got to wade through. 326 00:19:40,160 --> 00:19:42,160 Speaker 4: All the fake news. 327 00:19:41,320 --> 00:19:44,720 Speaker 1: The book The Rise of the Liberty Loving Latino the 328 00:19:44,760 --> 00:19:48,680 Speaker 1: author Chris Salcito, and he's got a show to prep for, 329 00:19:49,000 --> 00:19:52,199 Speaker 1: so I'll let him go.

After YouTuber Nick Shirley's viral video 358 00:21:43,880 --> 00:21:47,480 Speaker 1: raise the alarm about fraud at Somali run daycares in Minnesota, 359 00:21:47,840 --> 00:21:52,160 Speaker 1: Independent Sloofs turned their focus to Ohio, home of our 360 00:21:52,359 --> 00:21:58,840 Speaker 1: second largest Somali population in the United States, right behind Minnesota. 361 00:21:59,119 --> 00:22:02,760 Speaker 1: Ohio authority now investigating a spate of videos and Internet 362 00:22:02,760 --> 00:22:06,359 Speaker 1: tips from the public. During a visit to Columbus, where 363 00:22:06,400 --> 00:22:10,400 Speaker 1: the Ohio Somali population is concentrated. How about that right 364 00:22:10,440 --> 00:22:16,440 Speaker 1: here in the state capitol, Dowine loves him. The Epoch 365 00:22:16,480 --> 00:22:19,800 Speaker 1: Times interviewed to Somali woman who alleges that the daycare 366 00:22:19,840 --> 00:22:24,200 Speaker 1: where she works is committing fraudulent activity on a daily basis. 367 00:22:24,960 --> 00:22:28,960 Speaker 1: The worker, who spoke anonymously to avoid retribution, agreed with 368 00:22:29,040 --> 00:22:33,240 Speaker 1: state officials and members of the Columbus Somali community who 369 00:22:33,359 --> 00:22:35,720 Speaker 1: say that the scope and nature of fraud in Ohio 370 00:22:36,040 --> 00:22:40,520 Speaker 1: have not yet become clear. People of other ethnicities are 371 00:22:40,560 --> 00:22:47,200 Speaker 1: perpetrating fraud too. She said, well, I mean Keith Ellison. 372 00:22:47,240 --> 00:22:52,399 Speaker 1: I don't know Somali, the Attorney General of Minnesota, but 373 00:22:53,200 --> 00:22:56,199 Speaker 1: it looks like he very well may have been participating 374 00:22:57,160 --> 00:23:01,960 Speaker 1: and not in winking at the fraud that was going 375 00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:08,800 Speaker 1: on there. Dan Tierney, spokesman for Governor de Wine, said 376 00:23:08,800 --> 00:23:12,280 Speaker 1: aggressive anti fraud efist efforts pre date the current surge 377 00:23:12,280 --> 00:23:19,040 Speaker 1: of concerns. That's what Waltz said in Minnesota. He said, well, yeah, 378 00:23:19,080 --> 00:23:23,640 Speaker 1: we've been prosecuting fraud while they're turning a blind eye 379 00:23:23,680 --> 00:23:27,280 Speaker 1: to it the entire time. The idea that people might 380 00:23:27,320 --> 00:23:30,160 Speaker 1: try to defraud government systems is not new to us. 381 00:23:30,720 --> 00:23:35,480 Speaker 1: Well duh. We want to work to fight it hard, 382 00:23:35,600 --> 00:23:38,480 Speaker 1: and we also acknowledge the role of concerned citizens in 383 00:23:38,520 --> 00:23:44,440 Speaker 1: the process. We want their tips. Other Somalis told The 384 00:23:44,480 --> 00:23:48,280 Speaker 1: Epic Times that although they doubt that fraud is widespread, 385 00:23:48,400 --> 00:23:54,360 Speaker 1: they welcome the investigation's hope violators are punished. How much 386 00:23:54,440 --> 00:23:56,680 Speaker 1: fraud do you think is being perpetrated in the state 387 00:23:56,720 --> 00:24:02,960 Speaker 1: of Ohio across the nation As a matter of fact, 388 00:24:05,640 --> 00:24:08,119 Speaker 1: I think it's way more than you or I know. 389 00:24:09,920 --> 00:24:14,800 Speaker 1: Where's the proof? Well, in many cases, I believe it's 390 00:24:14,840 --> 00:24:17,480 Speaker 1: being covered up. But the people that are supposed to 391 00:24:17,480 --> 00:24:21,920 Speaker 1: be the watchdogs in our government, the people we send 392 00:24:21,960 --> 00:24:25,840 Speaker 1: our money to in Columbus and in Washington, d C. 393 00:24:28,480 --> 00:24:31,920 Speaker 1: Where did the money go. In the case of Minnesota, 394 00:24:32,920 --> 00:24:39,520 Speaker 1: at least seven hundred million of government taxpayer dollars money 395 00:24:39,520 --> 00:24:45,800 Speaker 1: that we spent and Minnesota spent in tax money went 396 00:24:45,840 --> 00:24:52,520 Speaker 1: through the airport and suitcases over months and perhaps years. 397 00:24:54,000 --> 00:25:00,840 Speaker 1: Right to Somali, right to terrorist organizations in Somalia. 398 00:25:01,400 --> 00:25:02,360 Speaker 10: Or four. 399 00:25:03,720 --> 00:25:07,800 Speaker 1: Extravagant vacation homes of those who were at the head 400 00:25:07,800 --> 00:25:14,320 Speaker 1: of the fraud rings. What about Ohio? What about your state? 401 00:25:14,400 --> 00:25:20,560 Speaker 1: Wherever you happen to live. And it's not just Somalians 402 00:25:21,200 --> 00:25:27,840 Speaker 1: or Somali, it's other ethnicities. In the case of Medicare 403 00:25:27,880 --> 00:25:35,359 Speaker 1: and Medicaid fraud, it may be white American born citizens. No, 404 00:25:37,520 --> 00:25:42,320 Speaker 1: fraud is rife within our government. And you want to 405 00:25:42,359 --> 00:25:45,800 Speaker 1: know one reason that we're thirty eight trillion dollars in debt, 406 00:25:47,720 --> 00:25:53,280 Speaker 1: it's because a trillion, maybe two trillion, maybe three trillion 407 00:25:53,760 --> 00:25:57,920 Speaker 1: have gone out the doors, out of the coffers into 408 00:25:57,920 --> 00:26:04,840 Speaker 1: somebody's pocket fraudulently. It's happening. It's happening even as the 409 00:26:04,840 --> 00:26:09,119 Speaker 1: scrutiny and the focus has been on Minnesota and the 410 00:26:09,160 --> 00:26:18,600 Speaker 1: Somali community. Don't you believe it's rampant everywhere in this country. 411 00:26:19,200 --> 00:26:24,760 Speaker 1: I mean, food stamp fraud has been going on for years. 412 00:26:25,920 --> 00:26:28,600 Speaker 1: It's not as easy as it used to be. But 413 00:26:28,680 --> 00:26:34,600 Speaker 1: how many times, say, where you offered to buy somebody's 414 00:26:34,640 --> 00:26:39,600 Speaker 1: EBT card, give them, they give you the code number 415 00:26:41,280 --> 00:26:44,280 Speaker 1: for fifty cents on the dollar of what it's worth, 416 00:26:45,320 --> 00:26:52,000 Speaker 1: and you go grocery shopping. That's fraud. It's illegal. But 417 00:26:52,080 --> 00:26:54,879 Speaker 1: it's been going on for years. What about Medicare and 418 00:26:54,920 --> 00:27:01,840 Speaker 1: Medicaid where people are filing Medicare claims and Medicaid claims 419 00:27:02,040 --> 00:27:06,560 Speaker 1: and they're being paid in two different states or three 420 00:27:06,600 --> 00:27:17,000 Speaker 1: different states the same claim. Any time there is that 421 00:27:17,160 --> 00:27:25,120 Speaker 1: amount of money that's supposed to go to some compassionate 422 00:27:25,520 --> 00:27:35,200 Speaker 1: or some kind of altruistic goal to help someone, they're 423 00:27:35,240 --> 00:27:37,120 Speaker 1: going to be grifters around who are going to find 424 00:27:37,160 --> 00:27:44,080 Speaker 1: their way around this system. And you know that. But 425 00:27:44,160 --> 00:27:46,399 Speaker 1: those are the people who aren't in the government. The 426 00:27:46,440 --> 00:27:48,680 Speaker 1: people who are in the government who are supposed to 427 00:27:48,720 --> 00:27:53,080 Speaker 1: make sure that doesn't happen are participants. In many cases. 428 00:27:56,000 --> 00:27:59,240 Speaker 1: That's the tragedy right there. The people that we elect, 429 00:27:59,560 --> 00:28:08,639 Speaker 1: that we pay their salaries are helping this along or 430 00:28:08,680 --> 00:28:12,520 Speaker 1: greasing the wheels and maybe getting a kickback, say in 431 00:28:13,240 --> 00:28:20,760 Speaker 1: their campaign funds. This has been going on a long time, 432 00:28:22,960 --> 00:28:26,720 Speaker 1: and not just in Minnesota and not just by Democrats. 433 00:28:29,880 --> 00:28:34,159 Speaker 1: It's time there were wide scale investigations, not just of 434 00:28:34,240 --> 00:28:38,640 Speaker 1: the Somali community in Minnesota or the Somaldi Somali community 435 00:28:38,680 --> 00:28:46,920 Speaker 1: in Ohio in Columbus, but all across the nation. California 436 00:28:47,360 --> 00:28:50,000 Speaker 1: is said to be in the hundreds of billions of 437 00:28:50,040 --> 00:29:03,840 Speaker 1: that fraud. Surprise, surprise, Illinois. Anyone, How much, how widespread 438 00:29:03,880 --> 00:29:09,040 Speaker 1: do you think it is? That's the question tonight. I 439 00:29:09,080 --> 00:29:14,480 Speaker 1: think it would blow our minds how much of our 440 00:29:14,600 --> 00:29:22,840 Speaker 1: money has gone to criminals who are gaming the system. 441 00:29:25,000 --> 00:29:28,520 Speaker 1: I guarantee it's more than you know. Six forty seven 442 00:29:28,640 --> 00:29:32,000 Speaker 1: seven utter w Elder to be perfectly honest and affair. 443 00:29:32,200 --> 00:29:35,840 Speaker 1: In the Epoch Times story I was referencing before the break, 444 00:29:37,240 --> 00:29:40,000 Speaker 1: State Senator George Lang said that although there is no 445 00:29:40,080 --> 00:29:43,280 Speaker 1: indication of systemic fraud in Ohio thus far, officials are 446 00:29:43,320 --> 00:29:46,680 Speaker 1: still investigating. He said there's a clear difference between Ohio 447 00:29:46,760 --> 00:29:51,720 Speaker 1: system and the shocking disconnect with disregard in Minnesota. Ohio 448 00:29:51,800 --> 00:29:55,080 Speaker 1: does use an electronic system to verify that children are 449 00:29:55,120 --> 00:29:58,960 Speaker 1: actually attending a daycare before payments are rendered, and check 450 00:29:59,000 --> 00:30:03,960 Speaker 1: ins include a personal identification number from parents. Minnesota requires 451 00:30:04,040 --> 00:30:07,560 Speaker 1: daily attendance records, but they haven't clamped down enough on 452 00:30:07,640 --> 00:30:11,080 Speaker 1: providers who failed to comply, according to a federal audit 453 00:30:11,880 --> 00:30:16,840 Speaker 1: last May. In addition, Minnesota state lawmakers have said that 454 00:30:16,840 --> 00:30:21,680 Speaker 1: whistleblowers have been punished for voicing concerns about Somali's committing 455 00:30:21,680 --> 00:30:25,480 Speaker 1: fraud and have been accused of racism or Islamophobia because 456 00:30:25,520 --> 00:30:30,200 Speaker 1: Somalis are black Muslims.

We basically have taxation without real representation again, 502 00:33:21,240 --> 00:33:24,880 Speaker 1: which sparked the First American Revolution, and maybe it's time 503 00:33:24,920 --> 00:33:27,760 Speaker 1: for that again. I don't know, but what I'm saying 504 00:33:27,960 --> 00:33:30,600 Speaker 1: is you ought to have a choice when you pay 505 00:33:30,640 --> 00:33:34,400 Speaker 1: your taxes to say where that money goes. It only 506 00:33:34,440 --> 00:33:35,640 Speaker 1: seems logical to me. 507 00:33:37,320 --> 00:33:40,000 Speaker 8: It's perfect site for bringing that up. 508 00:33:40,040 --> 00:33:40,280 Speaker 9: Sir. 509 00:33:41,040 --> 00:33:43,920 Speaker 1: Okay, well, thank you for calling again, Jim, have a 510 00:33:43,960 --> 00:33:49,320 Speaker 1: lovely Yeah. I was. I was dismayed to find out that, 511 00:33:49,520 --> 00:33:55,160 Speaker 1: in spite of the overturning of Roe v. Wade and 512 00:33:56,000 --> 00:33:59,320 Speaker 1: abortion the issue going back to the States, there is 513 00:33:59,360 --> 00:34:02,640 Speaker 1: still federal money going to planned parenthood. And I don't 514 00:34:02,680 --> 00:34:06,080 Speaker 1: know if that's in the courts or the reason why 515 00:34:06,120 --> 00:34:08,560 Speaker 1: it is, but I thought we were going to handle that. 516 00:34:09,640 --> 00:34:12,040 Speaker 1: I've been very proud of President Trump for all the 517 00:34:12,040 --> 00:34:16,200 Speaker 1: things he's accomplished in his first year in office, but 518 00:34:16,320 --> 00:34:21,440 Speaker 1: there are boxes that are still unchecked, and the sanctity 519 00:34:21,520 --> 00:34:26,160 Speaker 1: of life and the protection thereof and letting it be 520 00:34:26,400 --> 00:34:31,000 Speaker 1: truly a personal choice. That that box hasn't been checked yet. 521 00:34:31,040 --> 00:34:37,680 Speaker 1: In my opinion, I think that you should be able 522 00:34:37,719 --> 00:34:42,160 Speaker 1: to choose whether your tax money is going to kill 523 00:34:42,239 --> 00:34:50,160 Speaker 1: babies or not. I mean, how how can you morally 524 00:34:51,400 --> 00:34:56,360 Speaker 1: if you do not believe that babies should be killed 525 00:34:56,400 --> 00:35:03,319 Speaker 1: in the womb, you don't belie leave infanticide. How can 526 00:35:03,400 --> 00:35:07,920 Speaker 1: you justify your money going to an organization like Planned Parenthood, 527 00:35:07,960 --> 00:35:15,080 Speaker 1: for example? How can you sign that tax form and 528 00:35:15,160 --> 00:35:18,120 Speaker 1: send off your check or pay your taxes through your 529 00:35:18,120 --> 00:35:23,319 Speaker 1: payroll every day knowing that some of that money is 530 00:35:23,400 --> 00:35:29,560 Speaker 1: going in support of abortion. It just makes no sense. 531 00:35:29,600 --> 00:35:35,680 Speaker 1: The government pays for things all the time that many 532 00:35:35,680 --> 00:35:40,399 Speaker 1: of us find objectionable that to me is one of them, 533 00:35:41,600 --> 00:35:45,239 Speaker 1: the military and defense. The government has two charges in 534 00:35:45,280 --> 00:35:50,520 Speaker 1: the Constitution, and it's gone so far out of bounds 535 00:35:52,440 --> 00:35:58,640 Speaker 1: over the last you know, a couple hundred years since 536 00:35:58,680 --> 00:36:07,200 Speaker 1: our Constitution was consecrated, we've gone so far out of 537 00:36:07,239 --> 00:36:11,880 Speaker 1: bounds from the two major functions that the Constitution says. 538 00:36:11,880 --> 00:36:17,239 Speaker 1: Our government is in charge of a to provide for 539 00:36:17,320 --> 00:36:24,080 Speaker 1: the common defense, provide for the common defense and b 540 00:36:24,800 --> 00:36:30,400 Speaker 1: promote the general welfare. Doesn't say provide welfare, which is 541 00:36:30,440 --> 00:36:34,400 Speaker 1: what we do. It says promote the general welfare, which 542 00:36:34,440 --> 00:36:39,600 Speaker 1: means have a stabilized currency, keep the markets free and 543 00:36:39,680 --> 00:36:46,920 Speaker 1: open without government interference, make sure everything's fair, and provide 544 00:36:47,600 --> 00:36:53,080 Speaker 1: for the common defense. And it doesn't matter if we 545 00:36:53,200 --> 00:37:01,319 Speaker 1: have to defend ourselves against Iran or Antifa. That's the 546 00:37:01,360 --> 00:37:07,080 Speaker 1: government's job. Provide for the common defense, promote the general welfare. 547 00:37:07,960 --> 00:37:14,120 Speaker 1: Anything else. Protecting the snail darter no, not actually the 548 00:37:14,160 --> 00:37:17,920 Speaker 1: government's responsibility, and it's not your or my responsibility to 549 00:37:17,960 --> 00:37:22,720 Speaker 1: do that. Seven o'clock. John Gordon will join us next 550 00:37:22,800 --> 00:37:25,400 Speaker 1: on this special Sunday Night edition, Gary Jeff and for 551 00:37:25,520 --> 00:37:31,400 Speaker 1: Mike Allen Junior on seven hundred WLW in to another 552 00:37:31,440 --> 00:37:39,040 Speaker 1: hour of an early nightcap. I Go Sunday Night, Gary 553 00:37:39,120 --> 00:37:44,280 Speaker 1: Jeff Walker in from Mike Allen Junior and just listening 554 00:37:44,280 --> 00:37:47,359 Speaker 1: to the story during the news about the man and 555 00:37:47,400 --> 00:37:50,319 Speaker 1: his son who were returned from Texas to Minnesota. They're 556 00:37:50,360 --> 00:37:54,240 Speaker 1: glad to be home Ecuadorian nationals who were here legally 557 00:37:55,360 --> 00:38:05,680 Speaker 1: while awaiting asylum. The problem with anyone here seeking asylum 558 00:38:07,520 --> 00:38:12,160 Speaker 1: is that the Biden administration led in how many millions 559 00:38:12,160 --> 00:38:17,680 Speaker 1: of people who not even said they were seeking asylum 560 00:38:17,680 --> 00:38:20,759 Speaker 1: but were led into the country without any kind of 561 00:38:20,840 --> 00:38:24,120 Speaker 1: vetting at all. And I think anytime you've got a 562 00:38:24,239 --> 00:38:29,080 Speaker 1: quota or you've got a large group of people who 563 00:38:29,120 --> 00:38:33,640 Speaker 1: are here illegally, especially criminal illegals who have committed crimes 564 00:38:33,640 --> 00:38:35,879 Speaker 1: once they've come into the country illegally, which of course, 565 00:38:35,920 --> 00:38:38,120 Speaker 1: coming into the country illegally is a crime in and 566 00:38:38,160 --> 00:38:45,239 Speaker 1: of itself. Once you've got so many, they were going 567 00:38:45,320 --> 00:38:47,319 Speaker 1: to be mistakes made. They're going to people who fall 568 00:38:47,400 --> 00:38:50,520 Speaker 1: through the cracks. But you know what, they weren't deported 569 00:38:50,560 --> 00:38:54,480 Speaker 1: to another country. They weren't sent back to Ecuador. They're 570 00:38:54,560 --> 00:38:58,319 Speaker 1: going back home to wait their asylum hearing, we need 571 00:38:58,360 --> 00:39:02,440 Speaker 1: a lot more immigration, Judge. I think I was just 572 00:39:02,560 --> 00:39:07,719 Speaker 1: mentioning before the break about the taxpayer dollars that are 573 00:39:07,760 --> 00:39:13,240 Speaker 1: still going to planned parenthood in the current HHS amendment, 574 00:39:14,400 --> 00:39:20,439 Speaker 1: to talk about the voting to fund abortions and trans procedures, 575 00:39:21,600 --> 00:39:25,800 Speaker 1: which is being supported not just by Democrats but by Republicans, 576 00:39:27,719 --> 00:39:31,279 Speaker 1: and some other issues. We have attorney, legal analyst and 577 00:39:31,320 --> 00:39:35,640 Speaker 1: host of The Truth with John Gordon. John Gordon joining 578 00:39:35,760 --> 00:39:38,120 Speaker 1: us in this half hour John, good evening. How are you. 579 00:39:39,480 --> 00:39:43,400 Speaker 5: I'm doing fantastic. I'm a little cold down here in 580 00:39:43,680 --> 00:39:44,520 Speaker 5: South Florida. 581 00:39:44,600 --> 00:39:46,880 Speaker 2: Well you know what one tonight. 582 00:39:47,120 --> 00:39:50,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, we're really feeling a lot of sympathy for you 583 00:39:50,280 --> 00:39:56,600 Speaker 1: where it's been below zero for the last week here, John, Sorry, 584 00:39:56,160 --> 00:40:01,880 Speaker 1: my condolences, man. I mean I was looking at the 585 00:40:01,920 --> 00:40:07,600 Speaker 1: seven day forecast and when I saw the tomorrow it 586 00:40:07,719 --> 00:40:11,920 Speaker 1: might reach thirty degrees. You can't believe the happy dance 587 00:40:11,960 --> 00:40:16,680 Speaker 1: I was doing. I mean my wife, My wife and 588 00:40:16,719 --> 00:40:19,400 Speaker 1: I looked up at each other and went thirty degrees. 589 00:40:19,440 --> 00:40:22,960 Speaker 1: Are you kidding? This is like the holiday we're gonna 590 00:40:23,000 --> 00:40:31,600 Speaker 1: celebrate raindime frong, I'm going outside buck naked. Not really, 591 00:40:31,719 --> 00:40:36,640 Speaker 1: but anyway, Yeah, it's this has just been a miserable snap. 592 00:40:36,880 --> 00:40:39,279 Speaker 1: It's the weather. You can't do anything about it. It 593 00:40:39,440 --> 00:40:44,960 Speaker 1: happens sometimes, and you know, it's on that sicular thing 594 00:40:45,120 --> 00:40:48,239 Speaker 1: like everything else with the climate, and a lot of 595 00:40:48,280 --> 00:40:51,600 Speaker 1: the climate, the greeny axe, as I like to call them, 596 00:40:51,640 --> 00:40:57,680 Speaker 1: the climate terrorists often forget, or they conveniently forget, is 597 00:40:58,040 --> 00:41:01,440 Speaker 1: that the Earth goes through cycles. The climate always changes. 598 00:41:02,400 --> 00:41:05,799 Speaker 1: We've been colder before, we've been warmer before, and it's 599 00:41:05,840 --> 00:41:10,480 Speaker 1: going to happen again. It's just a matter of scientific fact, 600 00:41:11,520 --> 00:41:12,000 Speaker 1: you know what I. 601 00:41:11,960 --> 00:41:15,240 Speaker 2: Mean exactly, there's no doubt. 602 00:41:15,719 --> 00:41:21,560 Speaker 1: So a story about seventy six Republicans, I guess this 603 00:41:21,680 --> 00:41:26,800 Speaker 1: is going back to last week. This this trillion dollar 604 00:41:26,840 --> 00:41:32,000 Speaker 1: minibus that went through the House of Representatives on a 605 00:41:32,200 --> 00:41:35,080 Speaker 1: three hundred and forty one to eighty eight vote. Twenty 606 00:41:35,080 --> 00:41:39,400 Speaker 1: four Republicans and sixty four Democrats voted against it. The 607 00:41:39,440 --> 00:41:42,960 Speaker 1: Senate took it up. Is this part of what's there 608 00:41:43,960 --> 00:41:45,719 Speaker 1: The House is going to be voting on tomorrow with 609 00:41:45,760 --> 00:41:48,480 Speaker 1: the Senate package that was that was passed to keep 610 00:41:48,480 --> 00:41:49,560 Speaker 1: the government going. 611 00:41:50,960 --> 00:41:55,120 Speaker 5: Undoubtedly, And you know we've how long has it been 612 00:41:55,200 --> 00:41:58,320 Speaker 5: since the last shut down? And here we are coming 613 00:41:58,480 --> 00:42:04,440 Speaker 5: right down to the wire once again on budget approvals. 614 00:42:05,320 --> 00:42:06,960 Speaker 2: Why can't they get their act together? 615 00:42:08,080 --> 00:42:10,680 Speaker 5: It's like, you know, after you've seen this played out 616 00:42:11,520 --> 00:42:16,359 Speaker 5: now for literally decades, it's pretty clear that they don't want. 617 00:42:16,080 --> 00:42:21,120 Speaker 2: To get budget discipline in Washington. It's just more of 618 00:42:21,160 --> 00:42:21,880 Speaker 2: the same. 619 00:42:23,680 --> 00:42:27,719 Speaker 1: No, I mean, they want their goodies in their districts 620 00:42:27,960 --> 00:42:31,239 Speaker 1: and they will go along with almost anything to make 621 00:42:31,280 --> 00:42:36,520 Speaker 1: sure they get their pork. And it doesn't matter whether 622 00:42:36,560 --> 00:42:38,759 Speaker 1: there's an R or a D in front of their name. 623 00:42:39,600 --> 00:42:43,480 Speaker 1: But that shocked me that I thought the Republican Party 624 00:42:43,560 --> 00:42:46,080 Speaker 1: was supposed to be the conservative party. I thought the 625 00:42:46,120 --> 00:42:49,799 Speaker 1: Republican Party was a party of common sense. I thought 626 00:42:49,840 --> 00:42:53,440 Speaker 1: the Republican Party was a party that believed in the 627 00:42:53,480 --> 00:43:00,040 Speaker 1: sanctity of life and didn't go for these fetishes and 628 00:43:00,080 --> 00:43:05,160 Speaker 1: ads like the whole trans thing that we've seen go 629 00:43:05,280 --> 00:43:08,240 Speaker 1: on full scale in this country for the last decade. 630 00:43:08,760 --> 00:43:12,640 Speaker 1: I thought the Republicans weren't for they them, they were 631 00:43:12,760 --> 00:43:15,560 Speaker 1: for you and me. What happened. 632 00:43:18,520 --> 00:43:23,920 Speaker 5: I think it's a flaw with our system, and I 633 00:43:24,040 --> 00:43:26,920 Speaker 5: give part of the blame to the American people that 634 00:43:27,760 --> 00:43:31,399 Speaker 5: don't show up and don't hold these people accountable. On 635 00:43:31,440 --> 00:43:36,200 Speaker 5: November the fourth, twenty twenty four, we had record turnout 636 00:43:37,040 --> 00:43:41,319 Speaker 5: and we were able to get President Trump reelected, and 637 00:43:41,960 --> 00:43:47,280 Speaker 5: we were able to take the Senate back and regain 638 00:43:47,360 --> 00:43:52,839 Speaker 5: the House. Now they're not honoring the promises that they 639 00:43:52,920 --> 00:43:59,680 Speaker 5: made to their constituents, and their district needs to turn 640 00:43:59,719 --> 00:44:04,120 Speaker 5: them out. Oure pure and simple, but we're reaching a 641 00:44:04,160 --> 00:44:07,800 Speaker 5: tipping point in this country. Thirty eight trillion dollars in debt, 642 00:44:07,920 --> 00:44:12,919 Speaker 5: a trillion dollars a year in interest payments alone, it's 643 00:44:13,000 --> 00:44:17,239 Speaker 5: not sustainable, and it's time for the adults to show up. 644 00:44:17,840 --> 00:44:21,240 Speaker 1: Well, I was, you know, talking once again about what's 645 00:44:21,280 --> 00:44:24,920 Speaker 1: projected to be as much as one and a half 646 00:44:25,000 --> 00:44:29,360 Speaker 1: trillion dollars just in fraud in Medicare, Medicaid, Somali daycares 647 00:44:29,520 --> 00:44:32,799 Speaker 1: at all. And you know what, when you're thirty eight 648 00:44:32,840 --> 00:44:35,480 Speaker 1: trillion dollars in debt, maybe we don't have a spending problem. 649 00:44:35,520 --> 00:44:38,880 Speaker 1: Maybe we've got a graph problem. 650 00:44:39,120 --> 00:44:42,160 Speaker 5: Well, that's unquestionably a big part of it. And Elion 651 00:44:42,280 --> 00:44:45,279 Speaker 5: omar Is came to Congress. I think she had a 652 00:44:45,320 --> 00:44:48,480 Speaker 5: negative net worth and now she's got twenty five million 653 00:44:48,560 --> 00:44:52,959 Speaker 5: dollars in net worth. How did that happen, head Stretcher, Well, 654 00:44:53,080 --> 00:44:56,759 Speaker 5: it happened by the daycare centers that were in Minneapolis. 655 00:44:56,960 --> 00:45:00,800 Speaker 2: You think that were grade over and boarded up up. Yeah, 656 00:45:00,840 --> 00:45:01,080 Speaker 2: I do. 657 00:45:02,320 --> 00:45:07,560 Speaker 5: And you know, she also violated our immigration laws by 658 00:45:07,560 --> 00:45:12,120 Speaker 5: committing a fraud. She married her brother so that he 659 00:45:12,160 --> 00:45:14,800 Speaker 5: could come into the country. Why is she still I 660 00:45:14,920 --> 00:45:16,120 Speaker 5: was allowed to remain here. 661 00:45:16,120 --> 00:45:18,480 Speaker 1: So this is what I don't understand. Why isn't she 662 00:45:18,560 --> 00:45:21,800 Speaker 1: not been prosecuted for that? It's a it's common knowledge 663 00:45:21,840 --> 00:45:22,720 Speaker 1: that this happened. 664 00:45:24,760 --> 00:45:26,560 Speaker 9: She should be either. 665 00:45:27,200 --> 00:45:30,600 Speaker 1: Deported or in jail one or the other, or in 666 00:45:30,680 --> 00:45:35,040 Speaker 1: jail waiting for deportation. Just the just the fraud with 667 00:45:35,200 --> 00:45:39,840 Speaker 1: her brother marrying her brother. I mean that may happen 668 00:45:39,840 --> 00:45:45,080 Speaker 1: in Somalia or maybe or Alabama. Maybe maybe in the 669 00:45:45,120 --> 00:45:45,800 Speaker 1: deep cell. 670 00:45:45,840 --> 00:45:47,680 Speaker 2: I'm sorry, No, I think. 671 00:45:47,520 --> 00:45:50,560 Speaker 5: You yeah, I think it's I think it's limited to 672 00:45:51,160 --> 00:45:56,160 Speaker 5: second cousins maybe. 673 00:45:55,120 --> 00:45:57,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, a lot of friends in Alabama. I better watch it. 674 00:45:58,120 --> 00:46:05,760 Speaker 1: So this many of us that the House passed included 675 00:46:05,800 --> 00:46:12,560 Speaker 1: more than five billion dollars in welfare for refugees. Uh. 676 00:46:12,640 --> 00:46:18,799 Speaker 1: And again, I I'm just shocked that the current HHS 677 00:46:19,120 --> 00:46:21,040 Speaker 1: is still funding Planned Parenthood? 678 00:46:21,120 --> 00:46:21,920 Speaker 2: John? Is that? 679 00:46:22,160 --> 00:46:26,279 Speaker 1: Is that because of the courts or is it that 680 00:46:26,360 --> 00:46:30,160 Speaker 1: have that have stopped the efforts to defund Planned Parenthood 681 00:46:30,160 --> 00:46:33,360 Speaker 1: with federal tax dollars? Why is this going on? And 682 00:46:33,480 --> 00:46:39,080 Speaker 1: as far as funding transsurgery, my god, we lived through 683 00:46:39,160 --> 00:46:49,359 Speaker 1: this fetish fad. Transgenderism is a recognized mental illness called dysmorphia, 684 00:46:51,000 --> 00:46:54,880 Speaker 1: when people think they're in the wrong body and wanted. 685 00:46:55,200 --> 00:46:59,799 Speaker 1: It is a mental illness. Now, I am compassionate as 686 00:46:59,840 --> 00:47:02,800 Speaker 1: in anybody else for people who've got a mental health problem. 687 00:47:03,000 --> 00:47:06,879 Speaker 1: And I want them to get help, but I don't 688 00:47:06,920 --> 00:47:11,960 Speaker 1: want them in the case of parents mutilating they're fourteen 689 00:47:12,040 --> 00:47:16,840 Speaker 1: and fifteen or twelve year old boy or girl because 690 00:47:16,880 --> 00:47:18,960 Speaker 1: they say they want to be a part of this 691 00:47:20,040 --> 00:47:23,680 Speaker 1: fad of the day. You know, you thought tide pods 692 00:47:23,680 --> 00:47:29,080 Speaker 1: were a terrible fad for kids. The transgender thing is 693 00:47:29,880 --> 00:47:37,080 Speaker 1: unbelievably horrific, and people bought into it, and at at 694 00:47:37,200 --> 00:47:43,200 Speaker 1: best it was a fetish fad. At worst, it was 695 00:47:43,200 --> 00:47:46,480 Speaker 1: one of the great human tragedies of all time, and 696 00:47:46,520 --> 00:47:48,960 Speaker 1: it's still continuing. You agree or. 697 00:47:48,920 --> 00:47:52,560 Speaker 2: Disagree one hundred percent. I agree. 698 00:47:52,800 --> 00:47:56,880 Speaker 5: You know, adolescence can be a very difficult period in 699 00:47:56,920 --> 00:47:59,720 Speaker 5: all of our lives. I mean, that's when we start 700 00:47:59,760 --> 00:48:03,600 Speaker 5: trying to figure things out on our own, we start 701 00:48:04,640 --> 00:48:09,840 Speaker 5: becoming our own individual personality, and. 702 00:48:11,560 --> 00:48:13,759 Speaker 3: Middle school and high school can be tough. 703 00:48:14,520 --> 00:48:18,640 Speaker 5: And so a lot of these kids think that transitioning 704 00:48:20,239 --> 00:48:23,319 Speaker 5: is a way to achieve happiness. The fact of the 705 00:48:23,360 --> 00:48:27,799 Speaker 5: matter is is that the suicide rate among the young 706 00:48:27,840 --> 00:48:32,280 Speaker 5: people who have transitioned is way higher than the norm, 707 00:48:33,040 --> 00:48:38,839 Speaker 5: and later in life, the percentage of people who say 708 00:48:38,880 --> 00:48:42,440 Speaker 5: that they wish they had never done it is way 709 00:48:42,520 --> 00:48:47,759 Speaker 5: into the majority and so at some point parents have 710 00:48:47,800 --> 00:48:52,560 Speaker 5: to be parents. Adults have to be adults and say, look, 711 00:48:53,000 --> 00:48:57,080 Speaker 5: you're not old enough to make those decisions for yourself. 712 00:48:58,239 --> 00:49:03,040 Speaker 5: Wait until you're you achieve the age of majority, and 713 00:49:03,080 --> 00:49:06,440 Speaker 5: then at least then you can make a self determination. 714 00:49:07,080 --> 00:49:11,440 Speaker 5: But you know, automobile rental car companies don't rent to 715 00:49:11,440 --> 00:49:16,360 Speaker 5: people with their under twenty five years of age because 716 00:49:16,400 --> 00:49:19,600 Speaker 5: the brain is not done yet. There's a reason that 717 00:49:19,640 --> 00:49:22,640 Speaker 5: they won't take money from people that are under the 718 00:49:22,640 --> 00:49:24,880 Speaker 5: age of twenty five and want to rent a car. 719 00:49:25,480 --> 00:49:32,840 Speaker 5: And so apply the same logic on trans surgery. Let's 720 00:49:33,000 --> 00:49:38,640 Speaker 5: allow people time to mature and develop a fully functioning 721 00:49:38,719 --> 00:49:42,399 Speaker 5: brain before they make a life altering decision that they're 722 00:49:42,400 --> 00:49:45,040 Speaker 5: going to likely regret later in life. 723 00:49:45,120 --> 00:49:49,879 Speaker 1: Well, there is some justice in the wake of all 724 00:49:49,920 --> 00:49:54,439 Speaker 1: of this craziness. John A jury in White Plains, New York, 725 00:49:54,600 --> 00:49:58,200 Speaker 1: just last Friday found a psychologist and a surgeon liable 726 00:49:58,239 --> 00:50:01,480 Speaker 1: for malpractice after they support it and performed breast removal 727 00:50:01,520 --> 00:50:04,440 Speaker 1: surgery on a sixteen year old girl who at the 728 00:50:04,480 --> 00:50:09,040 Speaker 1: time identified as transgender. She's twenty two now no longer 729 00:50:09,080 --> 00:50:13,640 Speaker 1: identifying as transgender. There are some decisions that you're making 730 00:50:13,680 --> 00:50:16,799 Speaker 1: as you said, with a not fully formed brain that 731 00:50:16,840 --> 00:50:19,960 Speaker 1: are going to affect you adversely for the rest of 732 00:50:20,000 --> 00:50:22,759 Speaker 1: your life. She was awarded two million dollars in damages, 733 00:50:27,080 --> 00:50:30,520 Speaker 1: one point six million for past and future pain and suffering, 734 00:50:31,000 --> 00:50:34,560 Speaker 1: as well as another four hundred grand for future medical expenses. 735 00:50:35,320 --> 00:50:37,759 Speaker 1: The jury found that in many respects, the surgeon and 736 00:50:37,800 --> 00:50:41,880 Speaker 1: psychologists had skipped important steps when evaluating whether she should 737 00:50:41,880 --> 00:50:46,040 Speaker 1: go forward with the surgery, had not adequately communicated with 738 00:50:46,080 --> 00:50:49,960 Speaker 1: each other. All of this, to me is just so 739 00:50:50,719 --> 00:50:54,640 Speaker 1: outer space crazy. I can't believe that you and I 740 00:50:54,680 --> 00:50:57,400 Speaker 1: are talking about this right now and that it actually 741 00:50:57,520 --> 00:51:01,080 Speaker 1: has been happening in this country. Like you said, the 742 00:51:01,160 --> 00:51:06,799 Speaker 1: suicide rate for these kids who have gone through a 743 00:51:06,960 --> 00:51:13,040 Speaker 1: transition in air quotes is astronomically higher than those who 744 00:51:13,080 --> 00:51:18,200 Speaker 1: do not. And I think that if more juries and 745 00:51:18,320 --> 00:51:24,200 Speaker 1: more court decisions come down. Isn't it sad that it's 746 00:51:24,239 --> 00:51:27,480 Speaker 1: going to come down to money Whether this nonsense stops 747 00:51:27,600 --> 00:51:29,640 Speaker 1: or not, John, it should be ended now. 748 00:51:31,040 --> 00:51:36,399 Speaker 5: Well, it's really about accountability, and a doctor and a 749 00:51:36,640 --> 00:51:43,000 Speaker 5: shrink have no business influencing a young person on what 750 00:51:43,200 --> 00:51:49,600 Speaker 5: to do if they're having those thoughts. The only influence 751 00:51:49,680 --> 00:51:54,200 Speaker 5: that they need to exert is Look, you're still young. 752 00:51:55,480 --> 00:51:57,680 Speaker 2: Things change, you know you. 753 00:51:58,640 --> 00:52:01,439 Speaker 5: We all go in and out of happiness in our 754 00:52:01,480 --> 00:52:09,000 Speaker 5: lives depending on what is happening around us is part 755 00:52:09,000 --> 00:52:14,040 Speaker 5: of living. And transitioning from a male to a female 756 00:52:14,160 --> 00:52:19,040 Speaker 5: or vice versa is not going to solve the problems. 757 00:52:18,520 --> 00:52:20,200 Speaker 2: That an individual has. 758 00:52:21,960 --> 00:52:27,480 Speaker 5: And later in life, if they're mature, they've got the 759 00:52:27,480 --> 00:52:31,839 Speaker 5: intellectual capacity and they're going to make that choice for themselves. 760 00:52:32,120 --> 00:52:33,840 Speaker 2: I'm all about it. 761 00:52:33,840 --> 00:52:36,000 Speaker 5: It's not something that I would want for one of 762 00:52:36,040 --> 00:52:41,680 Speaker 5: my children, I can tell you that. But just let's 763 00:52:42,719 --> 00:52:46,640 Speaker 5: introduce the rule of common sense. Just a little common 764 00:52:46,680 --> 00:52:48,440 Speaker 5: sense will go a long ways. 765 00:52:48,760 --> 00:52:52,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, and back to the original point, John, we were 766 00:52:52,040 --> 00:52:55,040 Speaker 1: talking about this this thing that was passed by the 767 00:52:55,080 --> 00:52:57,719 Speaker 1: House and seventy six Republicans voted for it, and it's 768 00:52:57,719 --> 00:53:02,160 Speaker 1: got this language in it that funds these trans surgeries 769 00:53:03,160 --> 00:53:08,040 Speaker 1: and funds abortion, and it just sounds like the Party 770 00:53:08,080 --> 00:53:11,279 Speaker 1: of common Sense doesn't have much And it's all due to, 771 00:53:11,360 --> 00:53:15,040 Speaker 1: as you said, this political wrangling of trying to get 772 00:53:15,080 --> 00:53:18,359 Speaker 1: your goodies. No matter what you say you believed in 773 00:53:18,440 --> 00:53:21,319 Speaker 1: when you ran for office in the first place. The 774 00:53:21,360 --> 00:53:28,000 Speaker 1: only person that I see can continuously doing the things 775 00:53:28,360 --> 00:53:30,400 Speaker 1: or trying to do the things he said he was 776 00:53:30,440 --> 00:53:32,799 Speaker 1: going to do as the president. I guess when you 777 00:53:32,840 --> 00:53:35,960 Speaker 1: get to the local level, when you get to the 778 00:53:36,000 --> 00:53:39,920 Speaker 1: local level in politics, you're just going to do whatever 779 00:53:39,960 --> 00:53:42,920 Speaker 1: you can to make sure you get enough goodies for 780 00:53:43,000 --> 00:53:45,600 Speaker 1: enough people you get elected again. And the public, like 781 00:53:45,640 --> 00:53:48,520 Speaker 1: you said, has to stand up. And if they have 782 00:53:48,640 --> 00:53:52,359 Speaker 1: convictions and they believe in something, and this person that 783 00:53:52,400 --> 00:53:56,719 Speaker 1: they elected isn't fulfilling their obligations and their campaiging promises, 784 00:53:57,080 --> 00:53:59,839 Speaker 1: they need to be they need to find somebody new. 785 00:54:01,880 --> 00:54:05,120 Speaker 5: Well, I think you really have to wonder where the 786 00:54:05,160 --> 00:54:09,080 Speaker 5: influence is coming from. I don't know who influenced those 787 00:54:09,120 --> 00:54:13,440 Speaker 5: seventy some odd Republicans, nor the Democrats for that matter, 788 00:54:13,520 --> 00:54:18,600 Speaker 5: to make what I think is a nonsensical decision to 789 00:54:18,640 --> 00:54:22,880 Speaker 5: give taxpayer money for this purpose. 790 00:54:23,920 --> 00:54:26,120 Speaker 2: It just doesn't make any sense to me at all. 791 00:54:26,200 --> 00:54:28,400 Speaker 2: But I, you know, follow the money. 792 00:54:28,840 --> 00:54:33,719 Speaker 5: I don't believe that it's the constituency demanding this. I 793 00:54:34,200 --> 00:54:38,520 Speaker 5: guarantee you there's some sort of special interest influence in 794 00:54:39,080 --> 00:54:41,640 Speaker 5: all of this stuff, which is exactly why I have 795 00:54:41,920 --> 00:54:46,640 Speaker 5: advocated for a long time that we return the power 796 00:54:46,680 --> 00:54:49,040 Speaker 5: to the people. I could fix it in a day. 797 00:54:50,080 --> 00:54:53,880 Speaker 5: All we have to do is put limits on corporate 798 00:54:54,719 --> 00:54:59,920 Speaker 5: and special interest gift giving donations to five h one ce. 799 00:55:02,400 --> 00:55:05,200 Speaker 5: They are restricted in federal elections. 800 00:55:05,360 --> 00:55:06,960 Speaker 2: We need to eliminate. 801 00:55:06,440 --> 00:55:11,200 Speaker 5: It or limit it in state elections, but then restore 802 00:55:11,320 --> 00:55:17,320 Speaker 5: the tax credit for individuals so that their political contributions 803 00:55:17,960 --> 00:55:20,880 Speaker 5: will receive a federal tax credit. 804 00:55:21,440 --> 00:55:23,120 Speaker 2: It is perfect policy. 805 00:55:23,640 --> 00:55:28,000 Speaker 5: It restores power to the people, It diminishes a special interest, 806 00:55:28,440 --> 00:55:34,520 Speaker 5: and it probably will likely never happen. It should right 807 00:55:34,560 --> 00:55:37,759 Speaker 5: along with term limits. You do those two things, we 808 00:55:37,840 --> 00:55:41,400 Speaker 5: would turn the model back up on its right side, 809 00:55:42,040 --> 00:55:46,480 Speaker 5: and we get the special interest in ordinate influence in 810 00:55:46,520 --> 00:55:49,560 Speaker 5: our government out of the picture, and we restore it 811 00:55:49,640 --> 00:55:52,960 Speaker 5: to you and me and your listeners tonight. And maybe 812 00:55:53,520 --> 00:55:56,520 Speaker 5: we get people who run for office who really truly 813 00:55:56,600 --> 00:56:04,279 Speaker 5: want to serve their community and not themselves. Maybe well, 814 00:56:04,320 --> 00:56:06,879 Speaker 5: I ran for Attorney General of Georgia two years ago 815 00:56:06,920 --> 00:56:10,399 Speaker 5: with President Trump's endorsement, and I would like to think 816 00:56:10,440 --> 00:56:13,839 Speaker 5: that I am the person that you're describing. At that time, 817 00:56:13,880 --> 00:56:17,360 Speaker 5: I was seventy years old. I'm now seventy two. I've 818 00:56:17,400 --> 00:56:20,719 Speaker 5: worked since i was twelve years old. I've saved I've invested, 819 00:56:21,320 --> 00:56:25,640 Speaker 5: I've been I've had a wonderful life. I'm a wife 820 00:56:25,719 --> 00:56:28,640 Speaker 5: of forty eight years, three adult sons. I'm very proud 821 00:56:28,640 --> 00:56:32,440 Speaker 5: of going to work, back to work and punching the clock, 822 00:56:32,480 --> 00:56:35,239 Speaker 5: even though I've never really stopped working. I just don't 823 00:56:35,239 --> 00:56:39,160 Speaker 5: go to the office, but and I've worked hard to 824 00:56:39,160 --> 00:56:41,800 Speaker 5: be able to put myself into that position. But going 825 00:56:41,840 --> 00:56:43,560 Speaker 5: back to a job where I'd have to punch a 826 00:56:43,600 --> 00:56:46,440 Speaker 5: clock every day was not desirable to me. 827 00:56:46,600 --> 00:56:49,400 Speaker 2: But what was desirable was to make. 828 00:56:49,200 --> 00:56:53,040 Speaker 5: A contribution to this country and help restore it to 829 00:56:53,080 --> 00:56:55,480 Speaker 5: the country that you and I grew up in and 830 00:56:55,680 --> 00:56:59,200 Speaker 5: a set of values and beliefs that made this country 831 00:56:59,239 --> 00:57:00,239 Speaker 5: what it is today. 832 00:57:00,480 --> 00:57:01,440 Speaker 2: Because I've got. 833 00:57:01,239 --> 00:57:04,399 Speaker 5: Two grandchildren and I really want them to be able 834 00:57:04,440 --> 00:57:09,480 Speaker 5: to live in a free society. And we were close 835 00:57:09,520 --> 00:57:13,000 Speaker 5: to losing it, very close in twenty twenty four after 836 00:57:13,040 --> 00:57:17,120 Speaker 5: Biden's disastrous four years, and we'll be right back in 837 00:57:17,120 --> 00:57:21,120 Speaker 5: that same position if the people of this country don't 838 00:57:21,160 --> 00:57:24,920 Speaker 5: assert themselves, make their voices heard, And it starts with 839 00:57:25,040 --> 00:57:26,440 Speaker 5: showing up at the poles, and you're going to have 840 00:57:26,440 --> 00:57:29,640 Speaker 5: an opportunity to do that in just a few short months. 841 00:57:30,080 --> 00:57:33,920 Speaker 5: The midterms are upon us, and the American people have 842 00:57:34,000 --> 00:57:36,440 Speaker 5: got to come back to the polls. If we are 843 00:57:36,560 --> 00:57:41,320 Speaker 5: a surrender control of the leftist lunatics, we're going to 844 00:57:41,320 --> 00:57:43,160 Speaker 5: be right back in a bad place. 845 00:57:43,680 --> 00:57:44,760 Speaker 2: If we're not careful. 846 00:57:45,240 --> 00:57:48,160 Speaker 1: We need more John Gordon's thank you for being our 847 00:57:48,240 --> 00:57:50,560 Speaker 1: John Gordon tonight. God bless you. 848 00:57:51,040 --> 00:57:53,520 Speaker 2: It was my pleasure. Thank you very much. And I'm 849 00:57:53,520 --> 00:57:56,440 Speaker 2: going to go. I guess looks for some firewood. I 850 00:57:56,480 --> 00:57:57,480 Speaker 2: hope I can find it. 851 00:57:58,720 --> 00:58:04,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, again, you have our sympathy, John, take care, have 852 00:58:04,040 --> 00:58:06,720 Speaker 1: a good night. All right, a break, and then we'll 853 00:58:06,760 --> 00:58:09,880 Speaker 1: have Jim or and Acey, former congressman and businessman on 854 00:58:10,600 --> 00:58:12,760 Speaker 1: to talk a little bit more of this scuttle but 855 00:58:13,120 --> 00:58:16,160 Speaker 1: on a Sunday night on seven utter WLW and next 856 00:58:16,200 --> 00:58:20,840 Speaker 1: guest I always seem to have on during government shutdowns 857 00:58:22,120 --> 00:58:26,600 Speaker 1: or potential government shutdowns. Jim or Nacy is a former congressman, 858 00:58:27,360 --> 00:58:33,040 Speaker 1: of course the candidate, and also a very very successful businessman, 859 00:58:33,120 --> 00:58:36,480 Speaker 1: an entrepreneur, and he is our guest now for the 860 00:58:36,520 --> 00:58:39,600 Speaker 1: next half hours. So Jim Ernacy, good evening, welcome to 861 00:58:39,640 --> 00:58:41,640 Speaker 1: the show. Welcome to another government shutdown. 862 00:58:43,240 --> 00:58:46,960 Speaker 4: Well, good evening, Gary, and yes we've got another government shutdown. 863 00:58:47,320 --> 00:58:51,320 Speaker 1: You know what's really ironic in all of this is 864 00:58:53,160 --> 00:59:00,640 Speaker 1: the subject apparently is ICE and reimagining ICE. Immigration and 865 00:59:00,680 --> 00:59:05,720 Speaker 1: Customs enforcement is funded through fiscal year twenty twenty nine. 866 00:59:05,840 --> 00:59:08,840 Speaker 1: So if they shut the government down partially, they're not 867 00:59:08,880 --> 00:59:14,560 Speaker 1: doing anything to the funding for ICE. This was thanks 868 00:59:14,640 --> 00:59:17,440 Speaker 1: to the package approved with the Big Beautiful Bill in 869 00:59:17,480 --> 00:59:21,720 Speaker 1: twenty twenty five. The legislation provides roughly seventy five to 870 00:59:21,840 --> 00:59:25,040 Speaker 1: eighty billion and additional resources that can be utilized through 871 00:59:25,080 --> 00:59:29,040 Speaker 1: September thirtieth of twenty twenty nine, allowing for a massive 872 00:59:29,080 --> 00:59:32,600 Speaker 1: expansion of detention beds and enforcement operations like the ones 873 00:59:32,600 --> 00:59:36,600 Speaker 1: that have been going on so famously or infamously in Minnesota. 874 00:59:37,160 --> 00:59:42,560 Speaker 1: So all of this noise about defunding ICE is nonsense. 875 00:59:46,160 --> 00:59:48,120 Speaker 4: Well, I think there's a lot more to it. And 876 00:59:48,160 --> 00:59:50,680 Speaker 4: I think Gary, you and I have talked about this. Remember, 877 00:59:50,720 --> 00:59:56,040 Speaker 4: it's public perception, not always actually what's happening. And right now, 878 00:59:57,440 --> 01:00:01,160 Speaker 4: I just saw a poll that I think it's almost 879 01:00:01,200 --> 01:00:07,280 Speaker 4: sixty three percent of Americans do not like the actions 880 01:00:07,320 --> 01:00:13,280 Speaker 4: that are occurring with ICE. Now, it's strange because many Americans, 881 01:00:13,720 --> 01:00:17,920 Speaker 4: almost eighty percent, believe we need to remove illegal aliens 882 01:00:19,200 --> 01:00:24,520 Speaker 4: who are criminals from our country. So that's the key. 883 01:00:24,800 --> 01:00:28,800 Speaker 4: But the way they're being removed has caused President Trump 884 01:00:28,920 --> 01:00:32,880 Speaker 4: some problems. And so right now the Democrats, and I 885 01:00:32,920 --> 01:00:36,840 Speaker 4: always say shutdowns are about leverage. Who has the leverage 886 01:00:37,360 --> 01:00:40,720 Speaker 4: right now it's the Democrats and they know it, so 887 01:00:42,040 --> 01:00:44,880 Speaker 4: they feel pretty comfortable in saying, hey, we want some things, 888 01:00:44,960 --> 01:00:47,360 Speaker 4: or we're not going to sign off and reopen the government. 889 01:00:47,600 --> 01:00:50,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, and once again, people who work for the TSA 890 01:00:51,120 --> 01:00:55,080 Speaker 1: air traffic controllers, they're the ones who are going to 891 01:00:55,160 --> 01:00:59,560 Speaker 1: suffer and ultimately the public will suffer because of flight 892 01:00:59,600 --> 01:01:03,200 Speaker 1: delay and all the other things that happened during the 893 01:01:03,280 --> 01:01:08,080 Speaker 1: longest ever government shutdown last year. And I don't think 894 01:01:08,120 --> 01:01:11,560 Speaker 1: the Democrats gained any traction in that. I don't think 895 01:01:11,600 --> 01:01:15,000 Speaker 1: they gained any positive traction at all when they did that, 896 01:01:15,120 --> 01:01:16,959 Speaker 1: and they were responsible for the last time. 897 01:01:17,080 --> 01:01:21,640 Speaker 4: Jim Well, again, I told you the scorecard, and whether 898 01:01:21,640 --> 01:01:24,240 Speaker 4: they did or didn't occur in November of this year. 899 01:01:24,360 --> 01:01:27,400 Speaker 4: We're now in the year and November will be the 900 01:01:27,400 --> 01:01:31,040 Speaker 4: real key. If the Democrats do believe they scored. I 901 01:01:31,080 --> 01:01:33,600 Speaker 4: always tell people, I don't know whether they did or didn't. 902 01:01:34,440 --> 01:01:37,120 Speaker 4: I do know people are frustrated. I do know independence 903 01:01:37,160 --> 01:01:41,520 Speaker 4: are frustrated, and that's a big block of voters who 904 01:01:41,600 --> 01:01:44,360 Speaker 4: will be voting in November. I do know that the 905 01:01:44,400 --> 01:01:48,160 Speaker 4: White House and Republicans want to work with Democrats in 906 01:01:48,200 --> 01:01:51,000 Speaker 4: this shutdown, So they must know something we don't know, 907 01:01:51,120 --> 01:01:54,640 Speaker 4: because otherwise they would sit back and say, well, we're 908 01:01:54,680 --> 01:01:55,880 Speaker 4: just not going to do anything. 909 01:01:55,920 --> 01:01:56,160 Speaker 2: I know. 910 01:01:57,240 --> 01:02:00,160 Speaker 4: So there are negotiations that have been agreed to. A 911 01:02:00,200 --> 01:02:03,840 Speaker 4: lot of things are going to happen, but first the 912 01:02:03,880 --> 01:02:06,800 Speaker 4: House has to come back and vote on what the 913 01:02:06,840 --> 01:02:09,760 Speaker 4: Senate approved over the weekend, which again is going to 914 01:02:09,760 --> 01:02:12,800 Speaker 4: be another hurdle, giving that the Speaker of the House 915 01:02:12,880 --> 01:02:18,640 Speaker 4: only has a one vote majority if he swears in 916 01:02:18,720 --> 01:02:23,240 Speaker 4: the individual from Texas that won his election over the weekend, 917 01:02:23,280 --> 01:02:28,280 Speaker 4: giving the Democrats another vote in the House of Representatives. 918 01:02:27,640 --> 01:02:32,720 Speaker 1: Well, it's a vote that they had before the last 919 01:02:32,760 --> 01:02:37,080 Speaker 1: holder of that office died. He hasn't been present because 920 01:02:37,120 --> 01:02:41,560 Speaker 1: he wasn't alive. He is the only Democrat that didn't 921 01:02:41,600 --> 01:02:48,880 Speaker 1: vote when he was dead. But here's the thing you 922 01:02:49,040 --> 01:02:53,760 Speaker 1: talked about perception becoming reality and the reason that in 923 01:02:53,840 --> 01:02:58,400 Speaker 1: these polls, this sixty percent plus of people who don't 924 01:02:58,400 --> 01:03:01,840 Speaker 1: approve of the way ICES going about doing their job. 925 01:03:03,160 --> 01:03:07,000 Speaker 1: A lot of that is because of most mainstream media 926 01:03:07,080 --> 01:03:11,560 Speaker 1: generated coverage of it, and also a good percentage of 927 01:03:11,600 --> 01:03:15,880 Speaker 1: it and again public perception. I agree with you, but 928 01:03:16,440 --> 01:03:20,160 Speaker 1: most of this has to do with the way Minnesota 929 01:03:20,240 --> 01:03:25,200 Speaker 1: has handled it with their sanctuary city and sanctuary state policies, 930 01:03:26,080 --> 01:03:29,360 Speaker 1: not allowing ICE to just go into the jails when 931 01:03:29,400 --> 01:03:33,800 Speaker 1: they've got criminal illegals already in custody, or letting them 932 01:03:33,880 --> 01:03:38,480 Speaker 1: know that they're there so they feel like they've because 933 01:03:38,480 --> 01:03:40,560 Speaker 1: they're turning them out on the streets, They've got to 934 01:03:40,600 --> 01:03:43,040 Speaker 1: go out in the streets and find them. That's the 935 01:03:43,080 --> 01:03:46,080 Speaker 1: reason ICE has performed this way. ICE is not performing 936 01:03:46,120 --> 01:03:49,120 Speaker 1: this way in every effort that they're making to get 937 01:03:49,120 --> 01:03:52,440 Speaker 1: illegal criminals out of the country, which, as you mentioned, 938 01:03:52,480 --> 01:03:56,400 Speaker 1: is one of those eighty twenty issues. Eighty percent of 939 01:03:56,440 --> 01:03:59,960 Speaker 1: the population wanting the criminal illegals out. 940 01:04:02,360 --> 01:04:05,640 Speaker 4: Yes, one hundred percent agree with you and book. Sanctuary 941 01:04:05,640 --> 01:04:09,000 Speaker 4: cities are nothing that I ever supported, but we have 942 01:04:09,040 --> 01:04:13,560 Speaker 4: them in Ohio. Again, we have five or six cities 943 01:04:13,600 --> 01:04:16,480 Speaker 4: in Ohio that are sanctuary cities. And I think the 944 01:04:16,520 --> 01:04:18,960 Speaker 4: one thing we always have to remember, and Gary, I 945 01:04:19,000 --> 01:04:21,800 Speaker 4: always go back to what I truly believe in the 946 01:04:21,800 --> 01:04:27,440 Speaker 4: federal government. If you really follow what the founders believe, 947 01:04:27,640 --> 01:04:31,400 Speaker 4: the federal government was not supposed to have more power 948 01:04:31,480 --> 01:04:35,840 Speaker 4: than the states. And this is part of the problem 949 01:04:35,920 --> 01:04:40,520 Speaker 4: that frustrates me, is that the states should be doing 950 01:04:40,640 --> 01:04:46,360 Speaker 4: a better job. I realized the governor of the state 951 01:04:47,480 --> 01:04:51,640 Speaker 4: of Minnesota is a Democrat who believes in sanctuary cities. 952 01:04:52,040 --> 01:04:54,400 Speaker 4: But he also got elected by those people too, So 953 01:04:54,440 --> 01:04:56,760 Speaker 4: I just always keep going back to the basis of 954 01:04:57,680 --> 01:05:03,160 Speaker 4: we're electing these people. People are electing them, and that's 955 01:05:03,200 --> 01:05:06,320 Speaker 4: what they want. I disagree with it, You disagree with it. 956 01:05:06,640 --> 01:05:09,240 Speaker 4: I disagree with it in Ohio, but we still have 957 01:05:09,280 --> 01:05:10,720 Speaker 4: sants Furya's cities in Ohio. 958 01:05:10,520 --> 01:05:11,840 Speaker 3: As well well. 959 01:05:11,920 --> 01:05:16,120 Speaker 1: I mean Tim Walls, the D doesn't stand for Democrat 960 01:05:16,120 --> 01:05:18,280 Speaker 1: in the case of Tim Walls, it stands for dufus. 961 01:05:18,400 --> 01:05:20,600 Speaker 1: I mean that guy proved it on the national stage 962 01:05:20,600 --> 01:05:23,720 Speaker 1: when he was running for a chance to be vice president. 963 01:05:24,160 --> 01:05:27,600 Speaker 1: At every turn, this guy's just goofy. It has nothing 964 01:05:27,640 --> 01:05:32,320 Speaker 1: to do with his political party or his position on anything. 965 01:05:32,400 --> 01:05:35,520 Speaker 1: He's just playing goofy. And you're right, the people of 966 01:05:35,520 --> 01:05:39,600 Speaker 1: Minnesota elected him, which means there is a problem in 967 01:05:39,640 --> 01:05:42,400 Speaker 1: a state that prides himself on being one of the 968 01:05:42,400 --> 01:05:48,080 Speaker 1: most well educated populations in the country. It certainly doesn't 969 01:05:48,120 --> 01:05:50,760 Speaker 1: show by the people that they continue to elect to 970 01:05:50,880 --> 01:05:54,800 Speaker 1: represent them. My gosh, this is just crazy. 971 01:05:54,920 --> 01:05:57,880 Speaker 4: Well, I'm going to tell you a d little secret. 972 01:05:57,960 --> 01:06:01,800 Speaker 4: People don't elect qualified people. They elect people they like. 973 01:06:02,520 --> 01:06:05,880 Speaker 4: They elect people they feel comfortable with. Most of the time, 974 01:06:05,920 --> 01:06:08,640 Speaker 4: they don't even know their qualifications. And that's the problem 975 01:06:08,720 --> 01:06:11,840 Speaker 4: with our whole system across the country is that we 976 01:06:11,920 --> 01:06:16,480 Speaker 4: are electing people in many cases, not just in Minnesota, 977 01:06:16,520 --> 01:06:19,720 Speaker 4: but in other states and other counties, in other cities 978 01:06:20,160 --> 01:06:25,280 Speaker 4: that have no qualifications, but people either like them, people 979 01:06:25,320 --> 01:06:29,320 Speaker 4: believe in them, people feel comfortable with them without ever 980 01:06:29,440 --> 01:06:33,240 Speaker 4: really looking with their qualifications. And that's the problem with 981 01:06:33,440 --> 01:06:37,000 Speaker 4: our system. As great as it is, and it's better 982 01:06:37,040 --> 01:06:40,280 Speaker 4: than every other country in the world, we do have 983 01:06:40,360 --> 01:06:43,320 Speaker 4: the right to elect dufaces as you call them, but 984 01:06:43,720 --> 01:06:45,520 Speaker 4: really people that aren't qualified. 985 01:06:47,080 --> 01:06:53,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, I understand. It's kind of like Bill Belichick not 986 01:06:53,760 --> 01:06:56,800 Speaker 1: being a first ballot Hall of Famer. It's all about 987 01:06:57,000 --> 01:06:59,800 Speaker 1: it's all about It's a popularity contest. Now, It's not 988 01:06:59,800 --> 01:07:04,760 Speaker 1: about for a high achievement. You know, the eight Super 989 01:07:04,760 --> 01:07:07,919 Speaker 1: Bowls he was responsible for, either as an assistant coach 990 01:07:08,000 --> 01:07:11,520 Speaker 1: or a head coach. It was just about ten or 991 01:07:11,600 --> 01:07:16,280 Speaker 1: eleven voters who just decided they don't like him. And 992 01:07:16,400 --> 01:07:19,320 Speaker 1: because of deflate Gator video game, Well what about the 993 01:07:19,360 --> 01:07:21,320 Speaker 1: other four that he want as a head coach? 994 01:07:21,760 --> 01:07:21,960 Speaker 2: You know. 995 01:07:22,280 --> 01:07:28,040 Speaker 1: But I understand what you're saying. Politics. It shouldn't be 996 01:07:28,200 --> 01:07:31,800 Speaker 1: like student council, but it seems to be that way 997 01:07:31,880 --> 01:07:34,600 Speaker 1: a lot of times when it comes to who gets 998 01:07:34,600 --> 01:07:35,760 Speaker 1: elected and who doesn't. 999 01:07:37,760 --> 01:07:40,800 Speaker 4: Well, and again, politics are in everything we do. I 1000 01:07:40,840 --> 01:07:45,520 Speaker 4: still remember Jon bon Jovi was trying to get elected 1001 01:07:45,680 --> 01:07:47,560 Speaker 4: into the Hall of Fame rock and Roll Hall of 1002 01:07:47,600 --> 01:07:50,840 Speaker 4: Fame in Cleveland. I told the director, I'll never come 1003 01:07:50,880 --> 01:07:53,240 Speaker 4: to an event until you elect him, and he told 1004 01:07:53,280 --> 01:07:57,200 Speaker 4: me politics is stopping him from getting elected, even though 1005 01:07:57,240 --> 01:08:00,440 Speaker 4: he had a career for over twenty five years. So 1006 01:08:00,440 --> 01:08:05,160 Speaker 4: it happens even in rock and roll. And it's amazing, 1007 01:08:05,240 --> 01:08:09,560 Speaker 4: whether it's a foot NFL, whether it's rock and roll, 1008 01:08:09,680 --> 01:08:13,040 Speaker 4: or whether it's electing you know, the governor of the 1009 01:08:13,200 --> 01:08:17,919 Speaker 4: state of Minnesota. It politics gets involved in almost everything 1010 01:08:18,000 --> 01:08:21,240 Speaker 4: we do. And I've learned that, I've accepted it, and 1011 01:08:21,320 --> 01:08:25,280 Speaker 4: I realized that sometimes we just don't put the right 1012 01:08:25,320 --> 01:08:28,640 Speaker 4: people or elect the right people because of politics. 1013 01:08:28,960 --> 01:08:33,040 Speaker 1: Jim, I think it was totally proper. It's been totally 1014 01:08:33,080 --> 01:08:37,479 Speaker 1: proper to call some of these so called protesters who 1015 01:08:37,520 --> 01:08:42,599 Speaker 1: are impeding a legal law enforcement effort there with ICE. 1016 01:08:43,720 --> 01:08:47,120 Speaker 1: I think it's totally right to call them domestic terrorists, 1017 01:08:47,200 --> 01:08:51,240 Speaker 1: many of them because of their actions. And you know, 1018 01:08:51,400 --> 01:08:55,280 Speaker 1: even Alex Breddy who eleven days before he was shot 1019 01:08:55,320 --> 01:08:57,720 Speaker 1: and killed by ICE agents. Whether he should have been 1020 01:08:57,800 --> 01:09:00,960 Speaker 1: or not is not the point. The point is eleven 1021 01:09:01,040 --> 01:09:04,760 Speaker 1: days before he was breaking the law, when he was 1022 01:09:04,920 --> 01:09:11,280 Speaker 1: vandalizing that van and spitting on ICE officers at another protest. 1023 01:09:13,160 --> 01:09:18,799 Speaker 1: Terrorism is the calculated use of unlawful violence or threat 1024 01:09:18,920 --> 01:09:22,240 Speaker 1: of violence to induce fear intended to coerce or intimidate 1025 01:09:22,320 --> 01:09:26,320 Speaker 1: governments or societies in the pursuit of ideological, political, or 1026 01:09:26,320 --> 01:09:29,800 Speaker 1: social objectives. I think that's the definition of a lot 1027 01:09:29,880 --> 01:09:33,400 Speaker 1: of these so called peaceful protesters in Minnesota, don't you. 1028 01:09:35,439 --> 01:09:35,840 Speaker 2: Well, I do. 1029 01:09:36,320 --> 01:09:39,680 Speaker 4: And the only thing is, and I don't know all 1030 01:09:39,680 --> 01:09:43,800 Speaker 4: the facts, I'm just not sure if the response is 1031 01:09:43,840 --> 01:09:46,720 Speaker 4: shooting the individual. So I think in the end, like 1032 01:09:46,840 --> 01:09:49,360 Speaker 4: the kicking of the car and break he should have 1033 01:09:49,360 --> 01:09:52,520 Speaker 4: been arrested, then, Yes, if. 1034 01:09:51,640 --> 01:09:53,519 Speaker 1: He'd been arrested, then he wouldn't be dead. 1035 01:09:53,560 --> 01:09:56,120 Speaker 2: Now, I bet you exactly. 1036 01:09:56,880 --> 01:10:01,080 Speaker 4: But I think what's happened is and I understand that 1037 01:10:01,200 --> 01:10:05,000 Speaker 4: these ice individuals, you know, they have to be concerned 1038 01:10:05,040 --> 01:10:09,360 Speaker 4: for their life as well, but force that the return 1039 01:10:09,439 --> 01:10:13,000 Speaker 4: of force always has to be justifiable. And that's the 1040 01:10:13,080 --> 01:10:15,840 Speaker 4: only thing that I can say about that incident. Don't 1041 01:10:15,880 --> 01:10:18,840 Speaker 4: know enough about it. I try not to make assumption. 1042 01:10:19,040 --> 01:10:22,040 Speaker 4: So many people, by the way, Garry, the biggest problem 1043 01:10:22,040 --> 01:10:25,880 Speaker 4: in our country right now is on social media, people convict. 1044 01:10:26,400 --> 01:10:28,759 Speaker 4: I mean, I've told people on my social media accounts 1045 01:10:28,760 --> 01:10:30,759 Speaker 4: I would not want you to be in my jury 1046 01:10:31,920 --> 01:10:36,680 Speaker 4: if I was being tried, because they convict and sentence 1047 01:10:37,080 --> 01:10:38,679 Speaker 4: without even getting all the facts. 1048 01:10:38,760 --> 01:10:43,800 Speaker 1: Well, here's the thing. I agree with you wholeheartedly, and 1049 01:10:43,800 --> 01:10:48,840 Speaker 1: that this knee jerk, you know, assumption of things based 1050 01:10:48,880 --> 01:10:54,040 Speaker 1: on your own political preference or persuasion or your own beliefs, 1051 01:10:54,080 --> 01:10:58,519 Speaker 1: based without having all the facts. We've had some time 1052 01:10:59,120 --> 01:11:02,599 Speaker 1: now in the shooting of Alex Pretty and I'm not 1053 01:11:02,640 --> 01:11:04,680 Speaker 1: saying that he should be dead. I'm not saying that 1054 01:11:04,720 --> 01:11:07,600 Speaker 1: he should have been shot. But what I'm saying is 1055 01:11:07,960 --> 01:11:10,040 Speaker 1: there's been a little bit of time to kind of 1056 01:11:10,080 --> 01:11:14,160 Speaker 1: look at things and videos and reflect on what occurred there. 1057 01:11:15,040 --> 01:11:18,320 Speaker 1: This is not the day after that happened, Jim, And 1058 01:11:18,360 --> 01:11:21,200 Speaker 1: you're right on social media, the day after it happened, 1059 01:11:21,560 --> 01:11:25,519 Speaker 1: the Ice agents who shot him were murderers or he 1060 01:11:25,760 --> 01:11:30,840 Speaker 1: was a domestic terrorist and deserved it. I mean, within 1061 01:11:31,280 --> 01:11:35,599 Speaker 1: probably two hours of the occurrence and reporting of it, 1062 01:11:35,680 --> 01:11:38,400 Speaker 1: people were making these assumptions. We've had a little bit 1063 01:11:38,400 --> 01:11:42,479 Speaker 1: of time. I always think that you should wait before 1064 01:11:42,520 --> 01:11:47,000 Speaker 1: you respond to anything, even if it's a personal matter 1065 01:11:47,400 --> 01:11:51,000 Speaker 1: in a text or on social media. You should wait 1066 01:11:51,760 --> 01:11:54,599 Speaker 1: and take stock of everything that has gone on and 1067 01:11:54,680 --> 01:11:59,360 Speaker 1: think about it before you speak or sound out. I've 1068 01:11:59,400 --> 01:12:02,280 Speaker 1: had some time to think about it, So that's that's 1069 01:12:02,320 --> 01:12:05,439 Speaker 1: why I'm saying that he could have been guilty of 1070 01:12:05,479 --> 01:12:09,840 Speaker 1: domestic terrorism by the mere definition of terrorism and his actions. 1071 01:12:10,200 --> 01:12:11,040 Speaker 1: That's all I'm saying. 1072 01:12:12,160 --> 01:12:14,479 Speaker 4: Oh no, and I had a percent agree, But I'm 1073 01:12:14,479 --> 01:12:17,800 Speaker 4: saying on social media and you said that, I saw 1074 01:12:17,920 --> 01:12:22,320 Speaker 4: within hours after that he was convicted should have been killed. 1075 01:12:22,400 --> 01:12:25,080 Speaker 4: I saw people post I would have shot him before 1076 01:12:25,120 --> 01:12:28,880 Speaker 4: he even moved. It's like, wow, we have gotten to 1077 01:12:28,960 --> 01:12:34,120 Speaker 4: the point where social media is the driver and of 1078 01:12:34,400 --> 01:12:40,760 Speaker 4: such radical responses without even sitting back and saying wait 1079 01:12:40,800 --> 01:12:42,120 Speaker 4: a minute, and then. 1080 01:12:41,960 --> 01:12:46,000 Speaker 1: And likewise, and likewise, on the other side, Ice agents 1081 01:12:46,000 --> 01:12:50,760 Speaker 1: were cold blooded murders. Hakeem Jeffries just said American taxpayer 1082 01:12:50,840 --> 01:12:55,120 Speaker 1: dollars are going are being spent to kill Americans. He 1083 01:12:55,240 --> 01:12:58,160 Speaker 1: said that this weekend. It's totally irresponsible for him to 1084 01:12:58,200 --> 01:12:58,599 Speaker 1: say that. 1085 01:13:00,600 --> 01:13:03,880 Speaker 4: Well, I would agree, but again, all these situations, Gary, 1086 01:13:03,880 --> 01:13:06,439 Speaker 4: I used this example. You know, I carry my gun 1087 01:13:06,479 --> 01:13:09,439 Speaker 4: in church. It's approved that pastor proves me to do it, 1088 01:13:09,800 --> 01:13:12,439 Speaker 4: I said. I was telling one of the other ushers. 1089 01:13:12,439 --> 01:13:14,360 Speaker 4: If we're standing in the back of the church and 1090 01:13:14,360 --> 01:13:16,519 Speaker 4: all of a sudden, ten people come in with signs 1091 01:13:17,080 --> 01:13:20,760 Speaker 4: and just stand there with signs, not interrupting, not disrupting, 1092 01:13:20,880 --> 01:13:24,559 Speaker 4: not doing anything that's legal, they're not disrupting. We have 1093 01:13:24,640 --> 01:13:27,720 Speaker 4: to stand there and not do anything. I would call 1094 01:13:27,760 --> 01:13:31,519 Speaker 4: the police. And if the police walked in and saw that, 1095 01:13:31,760 --> 01:13:34,559 Speaker 4: because I had pulled my gun and jumped on my 1096 01:13:34,720 --> 01:13:38,479 Speaker 4: back and started wrestling with me, and I'm going like 1097 01:13:38,600 --> 01:13:41,120 Speaker 4: what the hell is going on here and pushing them 1098 01:13:41,160 --> 01:13:43,800 Speaker 4: off of me. You know, some people would call me 1099 01:13:43,840 --> 01:13:46,920 Speaker 4: a domestic terrorist. Without knowing all the facts as well. 1100 01:13:47,040 --> 01:13:50,400 Speaker 4: And that's sometimes what we have to pay attention to too. 1101 01:13:50,520 --> 01:13:53,200 Speaker 4: It's there are so many times that these kinds of 1102 01:13:53,240 --> 01:13:57,519 Speaker 4: things can happen, and it's it's really not what you see. 1103 01:13:57,960 --> 01:14:01,800 Speaker 4: So and I'm not I'm not saying that's about the 1104 01:14:01,800 --> 01:14:03,400 Speaker 4: individual in Minneapolis. 1105 01:14:03,439 --> 01:14:04,320 Speaker 2: I'm just saying. 1106 01:14:04,600 --> 01:14:08,840 Speaker 4: Every situation needs to be reviewed to its fullest and 1107 01:14:08,880 --> 01:14:12,320 Speaker 4: then we make our decisions, and really the court should 1108 01:14:12,360 --> 01:14:14,840 Speaker 4: make the final decision, which I'm sure is going to 1109 01:14:14,880 --> 01:14:18,400 Speaker 4: happen in these cases in Minnesota as well. 1110 01:14:18,520 --> 01:14:18,720 Speaker 2: You know. 1111 01:14:18,760 --> 01:14:22,040 Speaker 1: And and the sad truth of it is in the 1112 01:14:22,240 --> 01:14:27,679 Speaker 1: in the moment, law enforcement in a life or death 1113 01:14:27,760 --> 01:14:31,920 Speaker 1: situation doesn't have time to sit and reflect a lot 1114 01:14:31,920 --> 01:14:33,920 Speaker 1: of times, Jim, and you know that that is a 1115 01:14:34,680 --> 01:14:38,640 Speaker 1: that is a decision of the moment, by by necessity, 1116 01:14:39,720 --> 01:14:42,440 Speaker 1: and sometimes it's a bad decision, unfortunately. 1117 01:14:44,640 --> 01:14:47,719 Speaker 4: Exactly right, but there's still good people. I have always 1118 01:14:47,720 --> 01:14:51,160 Speaker 4: supported our police, and you're right, they're going to make 1119 01:14:51,400 --> 01:14:54,880 Speaker 4: mistakes and I think we need to understand that as well. 1120 01:14:56,120 --> 01:14:56,360 Speaker 2: Well. 1121 01:14:56,560 --> 01:14:59,920 Speaker 1: I I fully appreciate you coming on in the sun 1122 01:15:00,240 --> 01:15:03,960 Speaker 1: night to talk to me.

Jim, thank you so much. 1128 01:15:20,120 --> 01:15:21,760 Speaker 2: All right, thank you you bet. 1129 01:15:22,439 --> 01:15:27,120 Speaker 1: Dan was my Second Amendment guru, coming up right after 1130 01:15:27,160 --> 01:15:30,960 Speaker 1: the News a day and to another hour of this 1131 01:15:31,360 --> 01:15:36,280 Speaker 1: Sunday Night edition Gary Jeff Walker and from Mike Allen 1132 01:15:36,400 --> 01:15:39,040 Speaker 1: Junior on this Sunday evening for the next half hours 1133 01:15:39,120 --> 01:15:43,719 Speaker 1: so till the Sunday Supplement coase lead into the Bill 1134 01:15:43,800 --> 01:15:49,040 Speaker 1: Cunningham Show nationally and locally here on the Big One 1135 01:15:50,160 --> 01:15:54,280 Speaker 1: about seven or eight.

And I found 1139 01:16:06,680 --> 01:16:11,800 Speaker 1: this guy was promoted as being a Second Amendment guy, 1140 01:16:14,120 --> 01:16:17,840 Speaker 1: and was intrigued by the name of his website and 1141 01:16:17,880 --> 01:16:20,559 Speaker 1: the name of his books that he had written a 1142 01:16:20,600 --> 01:16:28,280 Speaker 1: Good Gun, Bad Guy dot com. And since then he's everywhere. 1143 01:16:28,320 --> 01:16:28,479 Speaker 2: Man. 1144 01:16:28,840 --> 01:16:33,599 Speaker 1: He's on YouTube, the show called Loaded Mike.

All Right, 1338 01:26:02,160 --> 01:26:10,839 Speaker 1: it's the Second Amendment stuff.

My question for you, 1341 01:26:18,560 --> 01:26:23,559 Speaker 1: Dan was is, yes, the Constitution says that we are 1342 01:26:23,720 --> 01:26:29,920 Speaker 1: all we all legally have the right as lawful citizens 1343 01:26:29,960 --> 01:26:34,360 Speaker 1: to own and bear firearms, and not just for hunting. Right, 1344 01:26:36,400 --> 01:26:44,479 Speaker 1: but with that comes responsibility. With every right that we 1345 01:26:44,640 --> 01:26:48,960 Speaker 1: have that's guaranteed by our constitution, not given to us 1346 01:26:48,960 --> 01:26:52,720 Speaker 1: by the government. But by God, and it's supposed to 1347 01:26:52,760 --> 01:26:56,519 Speaker 1: be ensured by our government that those rights are kept sacred. 1348 01:26:57,400 --> 01:27:00,360 Speaker 1: But with every one of those rights, each of us 1349 01:27:00,439 --> 01:27:05,760 Speaker 1: has a responsibility, yes or no. 1350 01:27:06,840 --> 01:27:07,880 Speaker 9: Absolutely, Yeah. 1351 01:27:07,920 --> 01:27:10,879 Speaker 11: I always say, you know, since this thing happened, I 1352 01:27:11,000 --> 01:27:14,720 Speaker 11: been talking about it on radio and TV, and you know, 1353 01:27:15,640 --> 01:27:20,120 Speaker 11: he had the right to exercise his Second Amendment along 1354 01:27:20,160 --> 01:27:22,600 Speaker 11: with his First Amendment, and even at protest. 1355 01:27:23,040 --> 01:27:26,880 Speaker 9: That's his right to do that. We support that. I 1356 01:27:26,920 --> 01:27:29,479 Speaker 9: don't think carrying a gun was his issue. 1357 01:27:29,600 --> 01:27:34,000 Speaker 11: I think, you know, getting involved in the police activity 1358 01:27:34,160 --> 01:27:36,479 Speaker 11: that was the problem. You can't commit you can't commit 1359 01:27:36,680 --> 01:27:42,280 Speaker 11: a crime, you know, when you're when you're carrying a gun. 1360 01:27:43,880 --> 01:27:46,720 Speaker 11: Committing a crime while carrying a gun brings brings with 1361 01:27:46,800 --> 01:27:51,240 Speaker 11: it a whole different number of results. 1362 01:27:52,520 --> 01:27:53,679 Speaker 9: Yeah.
