1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:01,480
Speaker 1: In the lead up to this show.

2
00:00:02,520 --> 00:00:04,640
Speaker 2: It's been long, so I'm just going to try and

3
00:00:04,680 --> 00:00:11,240
Speaker 2: summarize it for you. The President announces a peace proposal

4
00:00:12,200 --> 00:00:16,040
Speaker 2: for Gaza. It is a twenty one point peace plan

5
00:00:16,120 --> 00:00:20,080
Speaker 2: for Gaza, and one thing that stands out from previous

6
00:00:20,560 --> 00:00:25,200
Speaker 2: proposals for the first time, it outlines the key question

7
00:00:26,120 --> 00:00:29,440
Speaker 2: of how the territory will be ruled after the war.

8
00:00:31,120 --> 00:00:34,120
Speaker 2: There are provisions and this is the joint pressor that

9
00:00:34,159 --> 00:00:37,760
Speaker 2: he had with the Prime Minister of Israel, bb Net

10
00:00:37,280 --> 00:00:42,520
Speaker 2: and Yahoo. There are provisions that could either be rejected

11
00:00:42,560 --> 00:00:46,919
Speaker 2: by that could be rejected by Hamas. Actually the President

12
00:00:46,960 --> 00:00:48,960
Speaker 2: even said, really this is going to come down to

13
00:00:49,800 --> 00:00:52,200
Speaker 2: all the other countries in the region have signed off

14
00:00:52,240 --> 00:00:55,600
Speaker 2: on it. He talked about an expansion of the Abraham Accords.

15
00:00:56,120 --> 00:01:00,520
Speaker 2: He talked about a plan for the future of Gaza

16
00:01:00,560 --> 00:01:02,400
Speaker 2: and what that would look like, and we'll go into

17
00:01:02,480 --> 00:01:05,640
Speaker 2: some of that in a second. And for Harmas, the

18
00:01:05,680 --> 00:01:10,760
Speaker 2: plan means they must surrender. This is an organization and

19
00:01:10,800 --> 00:01:12,800
Speaker 2: it's by the way it is. There's a part of

20
00:01:12,840 --> 00:01:16,080
Speaker 2: me that is frustrated at all of this. In this

21
00:01:16,240 --> 00:01:24,000
Speaker 2: sense is there has been this incredible rise in virulent

22
00:01:24,640 --> 00:01:31,280
Speaker 2: anti Semitism in the halls of Congress, on college campuses worldwide,

23
00:01:31,480 --> 00:01:34,960
Speaker 2: even though the President praised some European leaders, but you know,

24
00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:39,800
Speaker 2: their desire to recognize Palestine, et cetera, et cetera, basically

25
00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:42,800
Speaker 2: giving aid and comfort to the idea that you know

26
00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:46,679
Speaker 2: of Hamas, who's charter calls for the destruction of Israel.

27
00:01:46,800 --> 00:01:50,240
Speaker 2: And it's nearly been two years. It'll be on October seventh,

28
00:01:50,280 --> 00:01:54,680
Speaker 2: it'll be two years since the equivalent based on Israel's

29
00:01:54,680 --> 00:01:58,000
Speaker 2: small population side of the size of about ten million people,

30
00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:01,000
Speaker 2: and which makes every thing that they're able to do

31
00:02:01,080 --> 00:02:08,280
Speaker 2: militarily and economically that much more spectacular and amazing. But

32
00:02:08,360 --> 00:02:10,440
Speaker 2: they have been fighting for their very survival. But it

33
00:02:10,480 --> 00:02:13,959
Speaker 2: would have been the equivalent of forty thousand dead Americans

34
00:02:13,960 --> 00:02:18,120
Speaker 2: in a single day. And you know, and then, and then,

35
00:02:18,200 --> 00:02:22,000
Speaker 2: even among the punditry class out there, there's been a

36
00:02:22,040 --> 00:02:26,480
Speaker 2: constant refrain of rising anti Semitism, as though somehow this

37
00:02:26,600 --> 00:02:30,959
Speaker 2: all happened in a vacuum. The level of ignorance, even

38
00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:34,200
Speaker 2: among people that claim to be on our side, I

39
00:02:34,320 --> 00:02:39,440
Speaker 2: find breathtaking, And that is what would you expect America

40
00:02:39,480 --> 00:02:42,080
Speaker 2: to do based on our population side?

41
00:02:42,400 --> 00:02:43,520
Speaker 1: Size.

42
00:02:43,680 --> 00:02:47,600
Speaker 2: If there was a sneak attack and it wiped out

43
00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:50,440
Speaker 2: forty thousand Americans in a day. We know what happened

44
00:02:50,440 --> 00:02:53,880
Speaker 2: on nine to eleven oh one. We lost twenty nine

45
00:02:53,960 --> 00:02:58,480
Speaker 2: hundred and seventy seven people in a single day. And

46
00:02:59,040 --> 00:03:02,720
Speaker 2: look at how America reacted, you know. And my question

47
00:03:02,840 --> 00:03:05,200
Speaker 2: to all of these people, what part of murder and

48
00:03:05,320 --> 00:03:10,720
Speaker 2: rape and torture and kidnapping and beheadings do you not understand?

49
00:03:11,560 --> 00:03:14,240
Speaker 2: Many of them, I don't think have gone through the

50
00:03:14,360 --> 00:03:17,520
Speaker 2: due diligence that I've gone through and use them or

51
00:03:17,600 --> 00:03:20,880
Speaker 2: maybe they if they had desired to. The IDEF would

52
00:03:20,919 --> 00:03:23,880
Speaker 2: show people in the media the videos that were taken

53
00:03:23,919 --> 00:03:28,560
Speaker 2: by hamas killers themselves as they were bragging, you know,

54
00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:34,359
Speaker 2: as they were murdering innocent people and raping young women

55
00:03:34,440 --> 00:03:37,200
Speaker 2: in front of their own children, and then kidnapping them

56
00:03:37,240 --> 00:03:39,400
Speaker 2: in front of their own children, or killing the children

57
00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:44,000
Speaker 2: themselves in front of their own parents, or phone conversations

58
00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:47,680
Speaker 2: that ended up being intercepted, Oh I killed ten Israelis,

59
00:03:47,720 --> 00:03:51,360
Speaker 2: I'm you know, Oh this is great news. It's pretty sick.

60
00:03:52,200 --> 00:03:56,880
Speaker 2: Over the years we've gone over the indoctrination of children

61
00:03:57,040 --> 00:04:00,360
Speaker 2: in Gaza and what has happened. They'll see cartoon uns

62
00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:04,360
Speaker 2: you know, from the time that they're able to watch cartoons.

63
00:04:04,720 --> 00:04:07,200
Speaker 2: When they go to school, you know, you get math

64
00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:12,520
Speaker 2: problems like, okay, if you kill seven Jews, how many

65
00:04:12,600 --> 00:04:16,800
Speaker 2: Jews are left to kill? That kind of insane indoctrination,

66
00:04:17,520 --> 00:04:19,800
Speaker 2: which really, to me, always explained why a lot of

67
00:04:19,839 --> 00:04:23,320
Speaker 2: the neighboring countries did not want to absorb the Palestinian

68
00:04:24,279 --> 00:04:28,880
Speaker 2: population because they felt that they had been radicalized for

69
00:04:29,320 --> 00:04:31,800
Speaker 2: a number of years. But for this deal to work,

70
00:04:33,960 --> 00:04:36,760
Speaker 2: a moss would need to They will have seventy two

71
00:04:36,800 --> 00:04:41,240
Speaker 2: hours and that's it. And if you doubt President Trump's deadlines,

72
00:04:41,839 --> 00:04:44,960
Speaker 2: well they do so to their own peril. They'll have

73
00:04:45,040 --> 00:04:49,240
Speaker 2: seventy two hours to return every single hostage and that

74
00:04:49,360 --> 00:04:51,479
Speaker 2: means dead or alive that they have. We expect that

75
00:04:51,520 --> 00:04:53,680
Speaker 2: there might be as many as twenty that are alive,

76
00:04:54,360 --> 00:04:57,839
Speaker 2: many others that we know are dead, and the families

77
00:04:58,000 --> 00:05:02,880
Speaker 2: of those victims they want their relatives' bodies back. The

78
00:05:02,960 --> 00:05:07,279
Speaker 2: militant group would no longer govern Gaza. They would have

79
00:05:07,400 --> 00:05:11,120
Speaker 2: to make that concession. They would have to disarm. Up

80
00:05:11,200 --> 00:05:14,479
Speaker 2: to this point they have rejected that. For Israel it

81
00:05:14,480 --> 00:05:18,640
Speaker 2: would mean not having direct security control over the Gaza strip,

82
00:05:19,120 --> 00:05:22,520
Speaker 2: which Prime Minister nets And Yahoo has said Israel would

83
00:05:22,600 --> 00:05:25,920
Speaker 2: like to maintain. But more importantly, the plan provides for

84
00:05:26,040 --> 00:05:30,479
Speaker 2: the West Bank based Palestinian Authority to eventually govern Gaza,

85
00:05:31,200 --> 00:05:35,120
Speaker 2: you know, providing the West Bank, you know, which net

86
00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:38,520
Speaker 2: and Yahou and his hardline allies had up to this

87
00:05:38,600 --> 00:05:43,880
Speaker 2: point resoundly rejected. And all of the other countries in

88
00:05:43,920 --> 00:05:46,880
Speaker 2: the region they want this peace and they're willing to

89
00:05:46,920 --> 00:05:54,080
Speaker 2: contribute pretty extensively as they outline these these plans. The

90
00:05:54,200 --> 00:05:57,480
Speaker 2: question is, and the President was very clear in making

91
00:05:57,520 --> 00:06:03,279
Speaker 2: his statement, that Amas either returns the hostages and agrees

92
00:06:03,320 --> 00:06:06,760
Speaker 2: to the deal, or Prime Minister Nittanya, who gets the

93
00:06:06,800 --> 00:06:09,520
Speaker 2: green light to wipe them out. That's pretty much it.

94
00:06:10,400 --> 00:06:14,120
Speaker 2: That choice then, is going to remain with a moss

95
00:06:14,839 --> 00:06:18,640
Speaker 2: did terrorist leadership, the people that claim that they care

96
00:06:18,640 --> 00:06:21,320
Speaker 2: about people, these are the same people for years. And

97
00:06:21,360 --> 00:06:23,600
Speaker 2: this is where part of the ignorance, I think comes

98
00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:29,360
Speaker 2: in among some people, because there's such a lack of understanding.

99
00:06:30,279 --> 00:06:34,600
Speaker 2: Unless you've been to Israel and taken the time, unless

100
00:06:34,640 --> 00:06:38,120
Speaker 2: you've been in the terror tunnel network, I've been there.

101
00:06:38,880 --> 00:06:42,039
Speaker 2: Unless you've been to border towns which I've been to,

102
00:06:42,960 --> 00:06:45,960
Speaker 2: unless you've been there. When the Iron Dome is shooting

103
00:06:46,720 --> 00:06:50,159
Speaker 2: missiles out of the sky, I've seen it, unless you

104
00:06:50,520 --> 00:06:54,520
Speaker 2: have been to the underground playgrounds. Because it only takes

105
00:06:54,560 --> 00:06:57,920
Speaker 2: about twelve thirteen seconds for a rocket fired, and say

106
00:06:58,000 --> 00:07:01,200
Speaker 2: Gaza into a border city in Israel, well that kids

107
00:07:01,200 --> 00:07:03,760
Speaker 2: can no longer play outside, they have to play an

108
00:07:03,839 --> 00:07:09,800
Speaker 2: underground bunker playgrounds and seeing what life and reality has

109
00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:12,680
Speaker 2: been like. Unless you factor in the hundreds of thousands

110
00:07:12,720 --> 00:07:16,920
Speaker 2: of rockets even long before, what has happened, unless you

111
00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:20,360
Speaker 2: factor in that Israel is surrounded by enemies. You got

112
00:07:20,680 --> 00:07:23,280
Speaker 2: a masque to the south in Gaza, you got Hazbala

113
00:07:23,560 --> 00:07:27,560
Speaker 2: Islamic Jihad to the north in Lebanon. Then you add

114
00:07:27,560 --> 00:07:30,640
Speaker 2: the Huti Rebels, then you add the number one state

115
00:07:30,680 --> 00:07:34,920
Speaker 2: sponsor of terror, Iran, and what they have been fighting

116
00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:39,600
Speaker 2: for and battling against is radical Islamic terrorism. So anyway,

117
00:07:39,640 --> 00:07:43,080
Speaker 2: the plan calls for all hostilities to immediately end within

118
00:07:43,120 --> 00:07:46,920
Speaker 2: forty eight hours. Hamas would release all the hostages, actually

119
00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:48,000
Speaker 2: within seventy.

120
00:07:47,680 --> 00:07:50,840
Speaker 1: Two hours that are alive.

121
00:07:51,440 --> 00:07:55,880
Speaker 2: The militants we believe hold forty eight of them and

122
00:07:55,960 --> 00:08:00,480
Speaker 2: twenty of them we believe are still alive, at least

123
00:08:00,480 --> 00:08:04,960
Speaker 2: it's believed by Israel to still be alive. In return,

124
00:08:05,080 --> 00:08:09,440
Speaker 2: Israel would free hundreds of Palestinian prisoners, including some serving

125
00:08:09,920 --> 00:08:12,960
Speaker 2: life sentences, as well as the bodies of other Palestinians

126
00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:16,800
Speaker 2: held by Israel. Israel would carry out a phase troop

127
00:08:16,840 --> 00:08:20,360
Speaker 2: withdrawal from the Gaza strip. That part of it kind

128
00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:26,280
Speaker 2: of remains vague, but Gaza would be deradicalized, the terror

129
00:08:26,320 --> 00:08:28,440
Speaker 2: free zone that does not pose a threat to its

130
00:08:28,440 --> 00:08:34,640
Speaker 2: neighbors any longer. Israel cannot as we saw this in

131
00:08:34,679 --> 00:08:38,200
Speaker 2: the conflict with Iran, after the Israelis, you know, took

132
00:08:38,200 --> 00:08:41,920
Speaker 2: out their air defense systems and went right up against

133
00:08:41,920 --> 00:08:46,160
Speaker 2: Iran directly prior to US involvement, taken out to nuclear sites.

134
00:08:46,160 --> 00:08:50,120
Speaker 2: But you know, you could see that the ballistic missiles

135
00:08:50,160 --> 00:08:54,720
Speaker 2: that Iran has been firing, that they fired directly into Israel.

136
00:08:55,240 --> 00:08:57,880
Speaker 2: You're going from two thousand pound bombs to four thousand

137
00:08:57,880 --> 00:09:02,679
Speaker 2: pound bombs. And for those those people that have said, oh, Israel,

138
00:09:02,800 --> 00:09:05,920
Speaker 2: they need to stop, well, what would you want America

139
00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:08,760
Speaker 2: to do? Stop before you actually defeat the enemy so

140
00:09:08,840 --> 00:09:12,360
Speaker 2: they can regroup and then come at you again, Because

141
00:09:12,360 --> 00:09:16,000
Speaker 2: that is the inevitable outcome if you don't finish the

142
00:09:16,080 --> 00:09:20,400
Speaker 2: job unless you have a serious peace plan that will

143
00:09:20,400 --> 00:09:24,400
Speaker 2: be enforced now. Part of it will include a redevelopment

144
00:09:24,480 --> 00:09:27,520
Speaker 2: for the benefit of the people of Gaza. People, by

145
00:09:27,559 --> 00:09:30,440
Speaker 2: the way, innocent people that have suffered. They too have

146
00:09:30,440 --> 00:09:33,600
Speaker 2: suffered because of the leadership of Hamas, which, by the way,

147
00:09:33,679 --> 00:09:37,720
Speaker 2: the pales the name people elected into office. If both

148
00:09:37,720 --> 00:09:40,840
Speaker 2: sides agreed to the proposal, the war would end immediately

149
00:09:41,720 --> 00:09:46,079
Speaker 2: and Israel will withdraw too agreed upon lines to prepare

150
00:09:46,160 --> 00:09:50,080
Speaker 2: for a hostage released. Within seventy two hours of Israel

151
00:09:50,120 --> 00:09:53,520
Speaker 2: publicly accepting the agreement, all hostages alive and deceased would

152
00:09:53,520 --> 00:09:57,480
Speaker 2: be returned. Once the hostages are released, Israel were released

153
00:09:57,520 --> 00:10:01,000
Speaker 2: two hundred and fifty life sentences of prison steners and

154
00:10:01,120 --> 00:10:05,880
Speaker 2: seventeen hundred Gazans who were detained after October seventh, including

155
00:10:05,880 --> 00:10:09,880
Speaker 2: women and children detained in that context. Once all the

156
00:10:09,920 --> 00:10:14,520
Speaker 2: hostages are returned, Hamas members who commit to peaceful coexistence

157
00:10:15,040 --> 00:10:18,400
Speaker 2: and to decommission their weapons will be given amnesty. Members

158
00:10:18,440 --> 00:10:22,000
Speaker 2: of Hamas who wish to leave Gaza will be provided

159
00:10:22,080 --> 00:10:27,640
Speaker 2: safe passage to receiving countries. Upon acceptance of the agreement,

160
00:10:27,679 --> 00:10:30,560
Speaker 2: full aid will be immediately sent to the Gaza strip.

161
00:10:31,040 --> 00:10:35,280
Speaker 2: At a minimum, aid quantities will be consistent with what

162
00:10:35,559 --> 00:10:40,160
Speaker 2: was included in the January nineteenth, twenty twenty five Agreement

163
00:10:40,280 --> 00:10:47,359
Speaker 2: regarding Humanitarian aid, including rehabilitation of infrastructure, entry of distribution,

164
00:10:47,559 --> 00:10:51,840
Speaker 2: and aiding Gaza will proceed without interference from the two parties,

165
00:10:51,880 --> 00:10:55,560
Speaker 2: through the UN and their agencies and the Red Crescent,

166
00:10:55,600 --> 00:10:59,680
Speaker 2: in addition to other international institutions. Gaza will be governed

167
00:10:59,720 --> 00:11:04,680
Speaker 2: under the temporary transitional governance of a technocratic a political

168
00:11:04,760 --> 00:11:08,760
Speaker 2: Palestinian committee responsible for delivering day to day running of

169
00:11:08,800 --> 00:11:13,120
Speaker 2: public services and municipalities. And it just goes on and

170
00:11:13,160 --> 00:11:15,760
Speaker 2: on and on. They'll have a Board of Peace which

171
00:11:15,800 --> 00:11:19,600
Speaker 2: is chaired by President Trump with other members and heads

172
00:11:19,600 --> 00:11:22,760
Speaker 2: a state to be announced, including former Prime Minister Tony Blair.

173
00:11:22,840 --> 00:11:26,680
Speaker 2: The body will be set will set the framework to

174
00:11:26,720 --> 00:11:29,200
Speaker 2: handle the funding for redevelopment, in other words, so that

175
00:11:29,600 --> 00:11:32,880
Speaker 2: the terrorists can't steal the money. The US will work

176
00:11:32,920 --> 00:11:37,880
Speaker 2: with Arab and international partners to develop an international stabilization

177
00:11:38,120 --> 00:11:43,600
Speaker 2: forced to immediately deploy in Gaza. It will train and

178
00:11:43,679 --> 00:11:48,440
Speaker 2: provide support to vetted Palestinian police forces, and will consult

179
00:11:48,480 --> 00:11:52,319
Speaker 2: with Jordan and Egypt, who have extensive experience in this field.

180
00:11:52,960 --> 00:11:57,000
Speaker 2: The force will be long term internal security solutions for everybody.

181
00:11:57,760 --> 00:12:02,480
Speaker 2: Israel will not occupy or Gaza in the event that

182
00:12:02,960 --> 00:12:07,400
Speaker 2: Hamas delays or rejects, this proposal, including the scaled up

183
00:12:07,480 --> 00:12:13,160
Speaker 2: AID operation, will proceed in the terror free areas handed

184
00:12:13,160 --> 00:12:17,880
Speaker 2: over from the IDF to the ISSF. Interfaith dialogue process

185
00:12:17,920 --> 00:12:21,600
Speaker 2: will be established based on values and tolerance and coexistence

186
00:12:22,160 --> 00:12:28,440
Speaker 2: while Gaza redevelopment advances. Now, if Gaza rejects this, then

187
00:12:28,600 --> 00:12:31,480
Speaker 2: the consequences will be They're going to get wiped out.

188
00:12:32,480 --> 00:12:36,839
Speaker 2: The consequences will be the fifty first day after the

189
00:12:36,880 --> 00:12:41,040
Speaker 2: fifty day deadline that Donald Trump gave Iran. Now it

190
00:12:41,800 --> 00:12:44,400
Speaker 2: is is there any guarantee that this is going to

191
00:12:44,400 --> 00:12:48,959
Speaker 2: be successful? No, there's not, absolutely not. Do I applaud

192
00:12:49,040 --> 00:12:51,960
Speaker 2: the president. Do I applaud some of these other countries.

193
00:12:52,200 --> 00:12:55,360
Speaker 2: Do I applaud the countries that are supporting the idea

194
00:12:55,400 --> 00:12:57,440
Speaker 2: that we're going to have peace in the region. I

195
00:12:57,520 --> 00:13:01,439
Speaker 2: do do. I wish them godspeed and success. I do

196
00:13:02,040 --> 00:13:04,000
Speaker 2: do I think this is in the best interest of

197
00:13:04,080 --> 00:13:06,400
Speaker 2: the people in Gaza.

198
00:13:06,600 --> 00:13:07,480
Speaker 1: I do do.

199
00:13:07,559 --> 00:13:11,160
Speaker 2: I think it's in the best interests of Israel ultimately,

200
00:13:11,360 --> 00:13:14,560
Speaker 2: but it has to be demilitarized. I do Do I

201
00:13:14,600 --> 00:13:15,760
Speaker 2: think it's possible?

202
00:13:16,400 --> 00:13:19,040
Speaker 1: Yes? Do I think the chance for sabotage is great?

203
00:13:19,400 --> 00:13:21,120
Speaker 1: I do? You know?

204
00:13:21,480 --> 00:13:27,560
Speaker 2: Unfortunately, the level of radicalization has been you know, just

205
00:13:27,600 --> 00:13:31,200
Speaker 2: to be realistic, it has been too high. And to

206
00:13:31,280 --> 00:13:35,120
Speaker 2: those that always want to blame Israel, push Israel, you know,

207
00:13:35,240 --> 00:13:38,040
Speaker 2: to move faster and to do that, I mean, I

208
00:13:38,120 --> 00:13:41,160
Speaker 2: listened to it. I'm frankly the level of ignorance. It's

209
00:13:41,200 --> 00:13:46,440
Speaker 2: almost like people need to get a comprehensive reminder in

210
00:13:46,520 --> 00:13:51,680
Speaker 2: what radical Islami's goal is convert or die. To think

211
00:13:51,720 --> 00:13:54,720
Speaker 2: of what happened on October the seventh. To see the

212
00:13:54,800 --> 00:13:57,960
Speaker 2: money for aid that was sent to the people of

213
00:13:58,000 --> 00:14:01,400
Speaker 2: Gaza that was spent instead of building hospitals and schools

214
00:14:01,400 --> 00:14:05,840
Speaker 2: and infrastructure, that was spent on bombs and terror tunnels

215
00:14:06,120 --> 00:14:09,920
Speaker 2: and ways to kill the Jewish people and to terrorize them.

216
00:14:10,320 --> 00:14:12,800
Speaker 2: And the rockets that they keep buying and spending and

217
00:14:12,840 --> 00:14:16,480
Speaker 2: shooting into Israel, and that the life that the Israelis

218
00:14:16,520 --> 00:14:20,640
Speaker 2: have lived, and how that if it continues with the

219
00:14:20,680 --> 00:14:24,200
Speaker 2: military weaponry becoming more sophisticated, they won't have a country

220
00:14:24,280 --> 00:14:28,400
Speaker 2: if it continues anyway, We'll see what happens, all right,

221
00:14:28,440 --> 00:14:32,080
Speaker 2: So we're now headed into the predictable. I am going

222
00:14:32,160 --> 00:14:34,360
Speaker 2: to be one of the few. Linda, correct me if

223
00:14:34,400 --> 00:14:38,360
Speaker 2: I'm wrong. Have I not always said a government shutdown

224
00:14:38,400 --> 00:14:39,880
Speaker 2: does not scare me?

225
00:14:41,320 --> 00:14:41,520
Speaker 3: Yes?

226
00:14:41,600 --> 00:14:44,600
Speaker 2: You have always said that, always said that doesn't scare me.

227
00:14:44,760 --> 00:14:47,680
Speaker 2: Scares a lot of people, a lot of hyperbole. Now

228
00:14:47,720 --> 00:14:50,760
Speaker 2: I'm going to be the first to say that if

229
00:14:51,400 --> 00:14:55,280
Speaker 2: usually the party in power is the one that has

230
00:14:55,600 --> 00:14:59,480
Speaker 2: the leverage over the party that's out of power that

231
00:14:59,800 --> 00:15:02,320
Speaker 2: is trying to make demands, but they don't have the

232
00:15:02,600 --> 00:15:09,239
Speaker 2: power the numbers to influence any significant change. And for example,

233
00:15:09,760 --> 00:15:14,040
Speaker 2: there have been multiple government shutdowns over the years. You know,

234
00:15:14,200 --> 00:15:17,720
Speaker 2: I guess the longest one was over Obamacare and what

235
00:15:17,880 --> 00:15:21,120
Speaker 2: was that, you know, twenty thirteen, twenty fifteen, I forget

236
00:15:21,160 --> 00:15:26,960
Speaker 2: the exact year. And Democrats now are just basically trying

237
00:15:27,000 --> 00:15:30,880
Speaker 2: to hold the budget hostage. And if they do with

238
00:15:31,000 --> 00:15:34,560
Speaker 2: their insane demands that they're now currently asking. For example,

239
00:15:34,680 --> 00:15:38,080
Speaker 2: Democrats and Donald Trump said he'd meet with Chucky Schumer

240
00:15:38,120 --> 00:15:41,440
Speaker 2: and Hakeem Jeffries over this issue. It canceled the meeting

241
00:15:41,560 --> 00:15:46,200
Speaker 2: last week because their demands are so insane. Democrats they

242
00:15:46,280 --> 00:15:50,280
Speaker 2: want for a four day, you know, four week extension

243
00:15:51,000 --> 00:15:55,200
Speaker 2: R four weeks. They want one point five trillion dollars

244
00:15:55,240 --> 00:15:58,760
Speaker 2: in demand for a four week extension. They want to

245
00:15:58,800 --> 00:16:03,000
Speaker 2: repeal of fifty billion dollars to help out rural areas

246
00:16:03,000 --> 00:16:07,440
Speaker 2: in the country in their healthcare funding. They want to

247
00:16:07,480 --> 00:16:12,280
Speaker 2: restore taxpayer funded health benefits for illegals. They didn't like

248
00:16:12,320 --> 00:16:15,640
Speaker 2: the idea that the Trump administration is saying able bodied,

249
00:16:15,680 --> 00:16:19,840
Speaker 2: non working adults on taxpayer funded health programs. They have

250
00:16:19,920 --> 00:16:21,600
Speaker 2: to do something either.

251
00:16:21,680 --> 00:16:23,880
Speaker 4: Sean, I have to interrupt you for one minute, and

252
00:16:23,920 --> 00:16:26,920
Speaker 4: I'm sorry, but we have some audio of Chucky Schumer

253
00:16:26,960 --> 00:16:28,160
Speaker 4: from nineteen ninety six.

254
00:16:28,520 --> 00:16:31,120
Speaker 1: I think you might like to hear this. All right,

255
00:16:31,200 --> 00:16:32,880
Speaker 1: let's play an anti fraud amendment.

256
00:16:34,160 --> 00:16:37,280
Speaker 5: All over where we go, people say, well, why can't

257
00:16:37,280 --> 00:16:43,000
Speaker 5: you stop illegal immigrants or others from coming here? And

258
00:16:43,040 --> 00:16:45,960
Speaker 5: the number one answer we give our constituencies when they

259
00:16:45,960 --> 00:16:49,320
Speaker 5: come here they can get jobs, get benefits against the.

260
00:16:49,360 --> 00:16:50,720
Speaker 1: Law because of fraud.

261
00:16:51,920 --> 00:16:54,800
Speaker 5: And here the gentleman from Florida has put together the

262
00:16:54,800 --> 00:16:59,160
Speaker 5: most effective anti fraud measure we can find without it

263
00:16:59,280 --> 00:17:03,560
Speaker 5: changing the app actions of the government one bit, and

264
00:17:03,600 --> 00:17:08,359
Speaker 5: we find all this opposition, Ladies and gentlemen of this chamber.

265
00:17:08,400 --> 00:17:13,000
Speaker 5: What I worry about is that this bill, which started

266
00:17:13,040 --> 00:17:15,199
Speaker 5: out with good intentions, whether you agree with it or

267
00:17:15,240 --> 00:17:17,760
Speaker 5: disagree with it, is going to end up being the

268
00:17:17,800 --> 00:17:20,280
Speaker 5: same kind of thing that the public gets angry with

269
00:17:20,359 --> 00:17:24,840
Speaker 5: us on. We say we're doing something and we do

270
00:17:25,280 --> 00:17:30,120
Speaker 5: nothing because every time someone makes a rational and small

271
00:17:30,240 --> 00:17:35,119
Speaker 5: proposal to get something done, people say, well, what about

272
00:17:35,119 --> 00:17:39,680
Speaker 5: this hypothetical, that hypothetical, etc. I urge support of this amendment.

273
00:17:39,720 --> 00:17:42,879
Speaker 5: If you believe you want to stop fraud in immigration,

274
00:17:43,280 --> 00:17:45,720
Speaker 5: you have no choice but to support this amendment.

275
00:17:47,280 --> 00:17:49,880
Speaker 1: We got a cut of Hillary Clinton saying the same thing.

276
00:17:50,600 --> 00:17:52,320
Speaker 1: Now it's probably illegal aliens.

277
00:17:52,720 --> 00:17:56,000
Speaker 4: We agree with you that we do not think the

278
00:17:56,040 --> 00:17:59,479
Speaker 4: comprehensive health care benefits should be extended to those who

279
00:17:59,560 --> 00:18:02,399
Speaker 4: are under documented workers and illegal aliens. We do not

280
00:18:02,560 --> 00:18:06,560
Speaker 4: want to do anything to encourage more illegal immigration into

281
00:18:06,640 --> 00:18:09,560
Speaker 4: this country. We know now that too many people come

282
00:18:09,600 --> 00:18:12,640
Speaker 4: in for medical care as it is. We certainly don't

283
00:18:12,640 --> 00:18:16,720
Speaker 4: want them having the same benefits that American citizens are

284
00:18:16,920 --> 00:18:17,640
Speaker 4: entitled to have.

285
00:18:19,359 --> 00:18:24,440
Speaker 2: This is how radicalized, how the Democratic Party has changed

286
00:18:24,480 --> 00:18:29,040
Speaker 2: and shifted over the years. They sound like Donald Trump.

287
00:18:29,960 --> 00:18:32,959
Speaker 2: Now Chucky Schumer is standing with the radicals in his

288
00:18:33,119 --> 00:18:37,040
Speaker 2: party and they are now going to hold the budget

289
00:18:37,080 --> 00:18:41,680
Speaker 2: crisis of the budget hostage. Over one point five trillion

290
00:18:41,800 --> 00:18:49,360
Speaker 2: dollars in demands, including restoring taxpayer funded health benefits were

291
00:18:49,400 --> 00:18:50,399
Speaker 2: illegal immigrants.

292
00:18:50,880 --> 00:18:51,400
Speaker 1: Apparently.

293
00:18:51,480 --> 00:18:55,000
Speaker 2: Gavin Newsom, the part time governor of I don't even

294
00:18:55,000 --> 00:18:57,359
Speaker 2: know if you can call him part time. He's like

295
00:18:57,400 --> 00:19:02,639
Speaker 2: occasional governor of the socialist utopia of California. You know,

296
00:19:02,680 --> 00:19:06,160
Speaker 2: whose state didn't have water in it's fire hydrants or reservoirs,

297
00:19:06,600 --> 00:19:08,879
Speaker 2: the state that has the highest state income tax, the

298
00:19:08,960 --> 00:19:12,920
Speaker 2: highest sales tax, the highest gas taxes. And he responds

299
00:19:12,920 --> 00:19:15,639
Speaker 2: to all of my criticisms, doesn't answer a single question,

300
00:19:15,720 --> 00:19:18,000
Speaker 2: and then says, you know, we've got the fourth largest

301
00:19:18,080 --> 00:19:21,399
Speaker 2: economy in the entire world. Well, it's the biggest state

302
00:19:21,480 --> 00:19:24,399
Speaker 2: in the country, number one. I would imagine they have

303
00:19:24,440 --> 00:19:27,840
Speaker 2: a very big economy. I'll give you an example by comparison.

304
00:19:28,600 --> 00:19:31,919
Speaker 2: Mice free state of Florida has a much higher population

305
00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:35,000
Speaker 2: than the state of New York and half the budget

306
00:19:35,880 --> 00:19:40,040
Speaker 2: and no state income taxes at all, and has very

307
00:19:40,040 --> 00:19:44,359
Speaker 2: low gas taxes. And sales taxes, just saying, so this

308
00:19:44,480 --> 00:19:47,560
Speaker 2: is what the Democrats now are going to do. They're

309
00:19:47,560 --> 00:19:51,399
Speaker 2: going this is what they are demanding, a trillion five

310
00:19:51,560 --> 00:19:54,520
Speaker 2: to keep the government open for a mere four weeks.

311
00:19:55,119 --> 00:19:58,879
Speaker 2: They don't want the rural health care investment. See when

312
00:19:58,920 --> 00:20:04,040
Speaker 2: Joe Biden was was president during COVID, he basically opened

313
00:20:04,119 --> 00:20:10,520
Speaker 2: up what was universal healthcare and gave benefits for everybody.

314
00:20:10,880 --> 00:20:13,320
Speaker 2: And they didn't like the fact that, Okay, well COVID's

315
00:20:13,320 --> 00:20:17,639
Speaker 2: over and those considerations that we can't afford need to

316
00:20:17,680 --> 00:20:20,440
Speaker 2: be taken back. And Republicans did that the one big

317
00:20:20,440 --> 00:20:24,959
Speaker 2: beautiful bill. Republicans are saying, you know, we need bipartisan support,

318
00:20:25,040 --> 00:20:29,320
Speaker 2: We need to clean CR and allow time for bipartisan

319
00:20:29,320 --> 00:20:34,919
Speaker 2: appropriation process. Democrats don't want that now. Democrats, by doing

320
00:20:34,960 --> 00:20:38,960
Speaker 2: this adds up September thirtieth, which is only a couple

321
00:20:39,040 --> 00:20:41,639
Speaker 2: of days from now, is not very far away. That

322
00:20:41,720 --> 00:20:45,200
Speaker 2: would be today's the twenty ninth, tomorrow's the thirtieth. As

323
00:20:45,240 --> 00:20:49,920
Speaker 2: of tomorrow, government funding deadline is looming, and the Trump

324
00:20:49,920 --> 00:20:53,439
Speaker 2: administration is warning that millions of Americans could lose flood

325
00:20:53,440 --> 00:20:58,119
Speaker 2: insurance coverage if Democrats refuse to back the House pass

326
00:20:58,160 --> 00:21:01,880
Speaker 2: spending bill. Now, if you want to know what hypocrisy

327
00:21:02,000 --> 00:21:05,399
Speaker 2: sounds like on the left, let me play a montage.

328
00:21:05,800 --> 00:21:08,879
Speaker 2: The last time the issue of a government shutdown was

329
00:21:08,920 --> 00:21:14,280
Speaker 2: a possibility, Democrats were fighting for a clean cr the

330
00:21:14,359 --> 00:21:17,800
Speaker 2: position now Republicans find themselves in. This is what they

331
00:21:17,800 --> 00:21:18,320
Speaker 2: were saying.

332
00:21:19,920 --> 00:21:23,640
Speaker 1: We believe in governance. We want to keep governments open.

333
00:21:23,720 --> 00:21:25,280
Speaker 4: A shutdown is very serious.

334
00:21:25,400 --> 00:21:29,320
Speaker 3: There are real consequences when the government shuts down. It

335
00:21:29,400 --> 00:21:34,240
Speaker 3: harms our national security, it harms our economy, and it

336
00:21:34,320 --> 00:21:39,720
Speaker 3: harms service members, veterans, retirees, and vulnerable communities.

337
00:21:39,960 --> 00:21:43,359
Speaker 4: We all know a shutdown is unnecessary and completely avoidable.

338
00:21:43,520 --> 00:21:48,040
Speaker 4: The tragedy here is all the civilian employees. It is

339
00:21:48,080 --> 00:21:49,720
Speaker 4: the American people who are going to suffer.

340
00:21:49,880 --> 00:21:54,400
Speaker 1: Border patrol agents will not be paid. TSA agents will

341
00:21:54,440 --> 00:21:55,119
Speaker 1: not be paid.

342
00:21:55,880 --> 00:21:58,440
Speaker 5: Small businesses will be hurting.

343
00:21:58,520 --> 00:22:04,000
Speaker 4: Not only is it irresponsible and purposely misleading, it is

344
00:22:04,280 --> 00:22:08,480
Speaker 4: dangerous precedent to be threatening a shutdown. I'm worried about

345
00:22:08,480 --> 00:22:11,320
Speaker 4: our air controllers, those in the military. We have over

346
00:22:11,480 --> 00:22:14,680
Speaker 4: almost forty thousand in the military, as well as personnel

347
00:22:14,720 --> 00:22:17,639
Speaker 4: who work in the military, and they won't have checks.

348
00:22:18,000 --> 00:22:21,920
Speaker 2: I mean, this is real the real people's lives at stake.

349
00:22:22,080 --> 00:22:25,040
Speaker 4: It is not normal to hold eight hundred thousand workers

350
00:22:25,119 --> 00:22:26,480
Speaker 4: paychecks hostage.

351
00:22:26,840 --> 00:22:29,080
Speaker 3: It is not normal to shut down the government when

352
00:22:29,119 --> 00:22:30,359
Speaker 3: we don't get what we want.

353
00:22:30,560 --> 00:22:35,639
Speaker 2: Our troops deserve better, our children deserve better, and the

354
00:22:35,680 --> 00:22:37,320
Speaker 2: American people deserve better.

355
00:22:37,480 --> 00:22:41,040
Speaker 5: These chaos agents, they don't have a plan be They

356
00:22:41,119 --> 00:22:42,679
Speaker 5: just want to see everything burning.

357
00:22:42,680 --> 00:22:46,639
Speaker 2: Shutdown is really is an extremist policy designed to appeal

358
00:22:46,680 --> 00:22:49,000
Speaker 2: to an extremist base and hold the whole country hospital.

359
00:22:49,000 --> 00:22:51,040
Speaker 1: So keep this shutdown. You know who's going to feel

360
00:22:51,080 --> 00:22:53,119
Speaker 1: the pay You know who it hurts you?

361
00:22:55,440 --> 00:22:58,520
Speaker 2: Oh that was that? Now they just want to shut

362
00:22:58,520 --> 00:23:00,760
Speaker 2: it down. Let me tell you the bigger part of

363
00:23:00,800 --> 00:23:04,440
Speaker 2: this is it all has to do with the failure

364
00:23:04,440 --> 00:23:10,760
Speaker 2: of Obamacare and the desire for government run healthcare. Because

365
00:23:11,560 --> 00:23:15,280
Speaker 2: what Joe Biden and the Democrats did during COVID is

366
00:23:15,760 --> 00:23:18,560
Speaker 2: with Obamacare. Now, remember we were promised you wouldn't lose

367
00:23:18,600 --> 00:23:20,879
Speaker 2: your doctor, you wouldn't lose your plan. The average family

368
00:23:20,920 --> 00:23:24,200
Speaker 2: would save on average twenty five hundred dollars per family

369
00:23:24,240 --> 00:23:27,399
Speaker 2: per year. Now there's over forty percent of the country

370
00:23:27,440 --> 00:23:32,000
Speaker 2: that only has one Obamacare exchange option. Number one number

371
00:23:32,040 --> 00:23:36,200
Speaker 2: two millions of Americans lost their doctors, millions lost their plans,

372
00:23:37,240 --> 00:23:40,359
Speaker 2: and on average, we're paying close to three hundred percent.

373
00:23:40,160 --> 00:23:40,960
Speaker 1: More on average.

374
00:23:41,560 --> 00:23:46,520
Speaker 2: And the you know, during COVID, what Joe Biden did

375
00:23:46,600 --> 00:23:52,040
Speaker 2: is take Obamacare and then created subsidies to offset basically

376
00:23:52,400 --> 00:23:56,600
Speaker 2: universal healthcare, you know, in the guise of what happened

377
00:23:56,640 --> 00:24:02,200
Speaker 2: during COVID to subsiized people whose incomes fall between one

378
00:24:02,240 --> 00:24:04,720
Speaker 2: hundred and four hundred percent of the federal poverty level

379
00:24:05,240 --> 00:24:08,320
Speaker 2: and cost sharing benefits. Now they also included, you know,

380
00:24:08,440 --> 00:24:13,160
Speaker 2: giving illegal immigrants these benefits as well. Not a single

381
00:24:13,200 --> 00:24:17,720
Speaker 2: Republican voted for the original COVID nineteen subsidies because Biden

382
00:24:18,200 --> 00:24:21,480
Speaker 2: and his American Rescue Plan Act temporarily lifted four hundred

383
00:24:21,520 --> 00:24:26,520
Speaker 2: percent income sealing for premium subsidies, in other words, taking

384
00:24:26,600 --> 00:24:30,399
Speaker 2: on the healthcare costs of the entire country, which we

385
00:24:30,480 --> 00:24:34,439
Speaker 2: could never ever do. And this is where Republicans have

386
00:24:34,480 --> 00:24:37,720
Speaker 2: an opportunity to say no. The White House Office of

387
00:24:37,760 --> 00:24:40,879
Speaker 2: Management and Budget released a memo telling federal agencies that

388
00:24:40,920 --> 00:24:44,160
Speaker 2: if the government is going to shut down, they might

389
00:24:44,200 --> 00:24:46,560
Speaker 2: as well make the most of it. And when the

390
00:24:46,760 --> 00:24:50,639
Speaker 2: spending runs out, most government agencies you know, stop at

391
00:24:50,640 --> 00:24:54,080
Speaker 2: a hal tier. And while a shutdown will interrupt some

392
00:24:54,160 --> 00:24:58,880
Speaker 2: key government services, you know, essential services will not shut down.

393
00:24:59,280 --> 00:25:01,800
Speaker 1: The military. We'll keep being the military.

394
00:25:02,640 --> 00:25:02,760
Speaker 3: Uh.

395
00:25:03,240 --> 00:25:05,679
Speaker 2: And you know the problem is for a lot of

396
00:25:05,680 --> 00:25:08,160
Speaker 2: people where it becomes hard is a lot of people

397
00:25:08,240 --> 00:25:11,200
Speaker 2: won't get a check. In the interim Obama shut down,

398
00:25:11,280 --> 00:25:13,679
Speaker 2: he made a big show of closing down national parks

399
00:25:13,720 --> 00:25:16,240
Speaker 2: during the twenty thirteen government shutdown that went on for

400
00:25:16,280 --> 00:25:19,359
Speaker 2: a few weeks. So when the Office of Management and

401
00:25:19,400 --> 00:25:23,960
Speaker 2: Budget directs agencies to consider a reduction in force notices

402
00:25:24,000 --> 00:25:27,439
Speaker 2: for all employees and programs and activities that are not

403
00:25:27,560 --> 00:25:31,119
Speaker 2: consistent with the president's priorities, it stands to reason this

404
00:25:31,200 --> 00:25:34,520
Speaker 2: shutdown will bring about dose two point zero. There's a

405
00:25:34,560 --> 00:25:36,920
Speaker 2: good article about that I read earlier today. So that

406
00:25:36,920 --> 00:25:40,560
Speaker 2: that's that's what's at stake here, and this is this

407
00:25:40,680 --> 00:25:43,520
Speaker 2: is the lines that have been drawn. They're not there's

408
00:25:43,640 --> 00:25:45,960
Speaker 2: not going to be any progress at this meeting today.

409
00:25:46,800 --> 00:25:51,520
Speaker 2: Democrats refuse to back this bill that would reauthorize National

410
00:25:51,520 --> 00:25:56,200
Speaker 2: Flood Insurance Company. That means that insurance will lapse. Every

411
00:25:56,240 --> 00:25:59,800
Speaker 2: single Democrat that you're going to hear, you know, into

412
00:26:00,320 --> 00:26:06,040
Speaker 2: of this has previously come out against it. And actually

413
00:26:06,080 --> 00:26:09,840
Speaker 2: the sixteen days shutdown was over obamacairon twenty thirteen, it

414
00:26:09,880 --> 00:26:13,720
Speaker 2: wasn't twenty days. And you know, over a couple of

415
00:26:13,760 --> 00:26:17,119
Speaker 2: partial significant shutdowns in late ninety five stretching to ninety

416
00:26:17,160 --> 00:26:21,800
Speaker 2: six overcuts to healthcare, environmental spending. You know, Fetterman has

417
00:26:21,840 --> 00:26:24,280
Speaker 2: been warning Democrats about shutting down the government. With two

418
00:26:24,359 --> 00:26:29,000
Speaker 2: hurricanes threatening the east coast of this country this week,

419
00:26:29,800 --> 00:26:33,720
Speaker 2: not a good time anyway, So we'll watch the hypocrisy

420
00:26:33,760 --> 00:26:34,280
Speaker 2: on all of this.

421
00:26:36,400 --> 00:26:36,879
Speaker 1: It is.

422
00:26:37,280 --> 00:26:41,480
Speaker 2: Senator Fetterman has said, you know, warn of these fellows, Democrats,

423
00:26:41,480 --> 00:26:45,439
Speaker 2: stop with the term nazi and fascist and racist. You

424
00:26:45,480 --> 00:26:48,960
Speaker 2: got to stop. He's also warning Democratic colleagues not to

425
00:26:49,040 --> 00:26:50,959
Speaker 2: let the government shut down. They're the ones that are

426
00:26:50,960 --> 00:26:56,440
Speaker 2: shutting this down. President Trump earlier today threatened to withhold

427
00:26:56,480 --> 00:27:01,840
Speaker 2: federal funds from New York City if Marxist Mamdani wins

428
00:27:01,840 --> 00:27:05,639
Speaker 2: the city's upcoming mayoral election. He said, Mamdani's not going

429
00:27:05,680 --> 00:27:08,639
Speaker 2: to be getting any federal money if he wins. You know,

430
00:27:08,680 --> 00:27:13,119
Speaker 2: he's already said he's gonna I'm gonna fight the Trump administration. Well, okay,

431
00:27:13,600 --> 00:27:17,720
Speaker 2: they'll have control over the spending. Good luck the left

432
00:27:17,760 --> 00:27:20,439
Speaker 2: is melting down. We'll get into more detail throughout the

433
00:27:20,440 --> 00:27:24,520
Speaker 2: course of the program, because we now have troops patrolling

434
00:27:24,600 --> 00:27:28,320
Speaker 2: downtown Chicago. It's a mystery to me that I'll never

435
00:27:28,640 --> 00:27:30,800
Speaker 2: I'll go to my grave not having an answer to

436
00:27:31,760 --> 00:27:34,240
Speaker 2: you know, look at, for example, what the president has

437
00:27:34,240 --> 00:27:38,359
Speaker 2: been able to do to make Washington, d c. Safe

438
00:27:38,480 --> 00:27:42,400
Speaker 2: and secure and restore law and order. And Muriel Bowser,

439
00:27:42,440 --> 00:27:45,840
Speaker 2: Democratic governor, I'm sorry, Democratic mayor, has been very supportive.

440
00:27:46,520 --> 00:27:50,920
Speaker 2: He's glad fewer people are dying. How did our nation's

441
00:27:51,000 --> 00:27:54,399
Speaker 2: capital become the number one homicide capital in the entire

442
00:27:54,600 --> 00:27:57,800
Speaker 2: world and we're talking about some very bad areas in

443
00:27:57,840 --> 00:28:02,080
Speaker 2: the world. Anyway, Now, federal troops, after everything that's been happening,

444
00:28:02,680 --> 00:28:06,320
Speaker 2: or in full tactical gear, are in Chicago and in Portland.

445
00:28:07,040 --> 00:28:09,040
Speaker 2: We'll play you some of the conflicts that are going

446
00:28:09,080 --> 00:28:12,720
Speaker 2: on around the country. I noticed that Rapper Ice Cubes

447
00:28:12,800 --> 00:28:16,280
Speaker 2: tour bus was set on fire in Portland because the

448
00:28:16,320 --> 00:28:20,040
Speaker 2: anti ice protests that are raging. Their initial reports alleged

449
00:28:20,119 --> 00:28:24,080
Speaker 2: the attack was instigated by protesters who identified the vehicle

450
00:28:24,160 --> 00:28:28,560
Speaker 2: due to its prominent ice letters, you know, ice Cube

451
00:28:29,040 --> 00:28:34,160
Speaker 2: as belonging to us immigration and Customs Enforcement. Newsweek reached

452
00:28:34,160 --> 00:28:37,240
Speaker 2: out to a Portland Fire and Rescue spokesman and Ice

453
00:28:37,280 --> 00:28:41,440
Speaker 2: Cubes representative. According to the Oregonian, the charter bus linked

454
00:28:41,440 --> 00:28:46,200
Speaker 2: to Ice Cube apparently was set on fire in downtown Portland.

455
00:28:46,880 --> 00:28:51,320
Speaker 2: And there's been confrontation and conflicts in both Chicago and

456
00:28:51,400 --> 00:28:54,880
Speaker 2: in Portland. But for all the years we've scrolled the

457
00:28:54,960 --> 00:28:58,400
Speaker 2: names of people every weekend shot shot and killed in Chicago,

458
00:28:59,480 --> 00:29:01,960
Speaker 2: I don't under stand the mindset that doesn't want to

459
00:29:02,000 --> 00:29:05,520
Speaker 2: keep their own citizens safe and secure to restore law

460
00:29:05,560 --> 00:29:09,560
Speaker 2: and order. I've never understood defund dismantled, no bail laws,

461
00:29:09,640 --> 00:29:13,160
Speaker 2: reimagine the police and put in the social workers. What

462
00:29:13,320 --> 00:29:16,640
Speaker 2: makes people think that's going to work? And besides it

463
00:29:16,720 --> 00:29:20,840
Speaker 2: being done politically, then you know ninety ten, eighty twenty

464
00:29:20,880 --> 00:29:21,240
Speaker 2: issue
