Oh got Obama phone? Yes, 7 00:00:34,280 --> 00:00:35,440 Speaker 2: everybody in Cleveland. 8 00:00:35,520 --> 00:00:37,400 Speaker 4: Oh my nod, you got Obama fall. 9 00:00:37,680 --> 00:00:40,720 Speaker 2: Gotta hit a woman. President. You know you have us 10 00:00:40,720 --> 00:00:43,560 Speaker 2: a phone. Give you a butt, he gives you a phone. 11 00:00:43,680 --> 00:00:46,320 Speaker 5: If you sign up for drink, you are full steps, 12 00:00:46,320 --> 00:00:50,080 Speaker 5: you are soft journey, you got lo your ability? 13 00:00:51,280 --> 00:00:54,320 Speaker 2: Okay, what's wrong with Rommy again? Romy This sucks. 14 00:00:55,200 --> 00:00:59,920 Speaker 6: There's a thing about both white vigilantism and white tears, 15 00:01:00,680 --> 00:01:05,959 Speaker 6: particularly male white tears, really white tears in general, because 16 00:01:06,160 --> 00:01:08,679 Speaker 6: that's what karts are, right. They care now and then 17 00:01:08,680 --> 00:01:13,319 Speaker 6: as soon as it get cause breeding waterworks. White men 18 00:01:13,360 --> 00:01:15,319 Speaker 6: can get away with that too, and it has the 19 00:01:15,319 --> 00:01:19,000 Speaker 6: same effect. And so we're all walking on fat ice 20 00:01:19,120 --> 00:01:21,920 Speaker 6: or no ice at all. Thirty one percent of black 21 00:01:22,040 --> 00:01:24,320 Speaker 6: children live in poverty, compared to eleven. 22 00:01:24,040 --> 00:01:25,040 Speaker 2: Percent of white children. 23 00:01:25,640 --> 00:01:28,320 Speaker 5: The natural average is eighteen percent, which suggests the percentage 24 00:01:28,360 --> 00:01:29,440 Speaker 5: of black children. 25 00:01:29,400 --> 00:01:32,000 Speaker 6: Living in poverty is more than one hundred and fifty percent. 26 00:01:32,880 --> 00:01:36,480 Speaker 2: My hope is that we would do it differently. 27 00:01:37,160 --> 00:01:39,399 Speaker 5: You know, in the moments when we have some power, 28 00:01:39,720 --> 00:01:42,360 Speaker 5: we will not do it perfectly. But I do think 29 00:01:42,440 --> 00:01:44,800 Speaker 5: that all of us can sort of agree that our 30 00:01:44,840 --> 00:01:48,360 Speaker 5: politics that says like there are superior in fear human beings, 31 00:01:48,760 --> 00:01:49,760 Speaker 5: just in the way to go. 32 00:01:50,200 --> 00:01:51,200 Speaker 2: And that's the thing. 33 00:01:51,040 --> 00:01:53,360 Speaker 5: That white people don't trust us to do because they 34 00:01:53,360 --> 00:01:57,120 Speaker 5: are so corrupt, you know, their thinking is so morally 35 00:01:57,160 --> 00:02:01,440 Speaker 5: and spiritually bankrupt about power that they can't let, you know, 36 00:02:01,560 --> 00:02:06,000 Speaker 5: they fear viscerally existentially letting go of power because they 37 00:02:06,080 --> 00:02:09,360 Speaker 5: cannot imagine that there's another way to be. It is 38 00:02:09,400 --> 00:02:12,680 Speaker 5: either that you dominate or you are dominated. And isn't 39 00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:16,360 Speaker 5: it sad that that is spiritually who they are and 40 00:02:16,360 --> 00:02:19,079 Speaker 5: that they can't imagine a sort of more expansive. 41 00:02:18,600 --> 00:02:21,440 Speaker 2: Notion of the world. I've held at AR fifteen in 42 00:02:21,480 --> 00:02:23,079 Speaker 2: my aunt, I whish I added it. 43 00:02:23,120 --> 00:02:29,359 Speaker 7: Is of hearing black people talk about how awful. 44 00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:30,079 Speaker 2: White people are. 45 00:02:31,480 --> 00:02:37,760 Speaker 7: I'm so exhausted by it. The term online is black fatigue. 46 00:02:38,200 --> 00:02:44,440 Speaker 7: It's just so exhausting. I wish somebody would just say 47 00:02:44,480 --> 00:02:50,480 Speaker 7: it out loud. We're not sitting around hating you, plotting 48 00:02:50,520 --> 00:02:55,000 Speaker 7: your demise, trying to sell you in the slave market, 49 00:02:55,520 --> 00:02:59,000 Speaker 7: trying to figure out how we can make sure you fail. 50 00:02:59,680 --> 00:03:02,760 Speaker 7: We're not even thinking about you. 51 00:03:03,880 --> 00:03:05,239 Speaker 2: That's just it. 52 00:03:06,120 --> 00:03:11,040 Speaker 7: We're not even thinking about you. You're not on our mind. 53 00:03:11,200 --> 00:03:15,680 Speaker 7: We don't sit around thinking. I wonder what the people 54 00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:18,120 Speaker 7: who live in the inner city of Detroit are doing 55 00:03:18,200 --> 00:03:21,119 Speaker 7: right now. I wonder if there's some way we can 56 00:03:21,160 --> 00:03:26,720 Speaker 7: bring harm to them. No one is thinking that people 57 00:03:26,800 --> 00:03:33,640 Speaker 7: are literally fleeing majority black areas. They're leaving being close 58 00:03:33,680 --> 00:03:37,360 Speaker 7: to their workplace, being close to their kids' school, being 59 00:03:37,480 --> 00:03:40,120 Speaker 7: close to the shops that they go to, and going 60 00:03:40,120 --> 00:03:42,240 Speaker 7: out into the country where they have none of those 61 00:03:42,240 --> 00:03:46,320 Speaker 7: conveniences to get the hell away. 62 00:03:47,160 --> 00:03:49,000 Speaker 2: You've literally got police. 63 00:03:48,560 --> 00:03:55,120 Speaker 7: Officers in mass across the country resigning from their jobs 64 00:03:55,640 --> 00:04:00,320 Speaker 7: because you cannot police the big city any longer because 65 00:04:00,320 --> 00:04:03,280 Speaker 7: the numbers show you're gonna come up against a violent 66 00:04:03,640 --> 00:04:08,000 Speaker 7: black criminal, and a violent black criminal doesn't say, you 67 00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:09,960 Speaker 7: know what, good on you. 68 00:04:10,280 --> 00:04:12,880 Speaker 2: I got respect for you, respect for the game you 69 00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:13,360 Speaker 2: caught me. 70 00:04:14,480 --> 00:04:18,880 Speaker 7: That guy fights you, so you either fight back or 71 00:04:18,920 --> 00:04:23,280 Speaker 7: he kills you when we see that happen, or if 72 00:04:23,320 --> 00:04:25,440 Speaker 7: you do fight back and you win, and you get 73 00:04:25,480 --> 00:04:27,520 Speaker 7: him locked down, and you got to do this all day. 74 00:04:27,560 --> 00:04:28,159 Speaker 2: Every day. 75 00:04:29,839 --> 00:04:32,000 Speaker 7: You get sued by Ben Crump or one of these 76 00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:36,320 Speaker 7: other guys. He's race hustlers for being a bad guy. 77 00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:40,680 Speaker 7: And it never ends. So what do people do? I said, 78 00:04:40,680 --> 00:04:43,000 Speaker 7: I don't want to be around it anymore. I don't 79 00:04:43,040 --> 00:04:46,560 Speaker 7: want to be amongst it, And so they keep fleeing, 80 00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:52,039 Speaker 7: they move further from the urban core. In Texas, we 81 00:04:52,120 --> 00:04:58,240 Speaker 7: are witnessing people moving out of Houston and Dallas in 82 00:04:58,640 --> 00:05:03,840 Speaker 7: major number and Austin to get away from it all. 83 00:05:04,680 --> 00:05:08,960 Speaker 7: They've had enough, they've had enough of white liberalism in 84 00:05:09,160 --> 00:05:15,760 Speaker 7: urban government. Part of white liberalism was allowing homelessness to flourish. 85 00:05:16,600 --> 00:05:18,560 Speaker 7: And when we think of homelessness, we think, oh, it's 86 00:05:18,600 --> 00:05:22,520 Speaker 7: unfortunate a person mind us a home. But that's not 87 00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:26,760 Speaker 7: really what homelessness means. It's a euphemism. It's a euphemism 88 00:05:26,800 --> 00:05:30,400 Speaker 7: for a guy who is extremely crazy. And most of 89 00:05:30,480 --> 00:05:33,599 Speaker 7: them started that way. And it's okay to call a 90 00:05:33,640 --> 00:05:41,720 Speaker 7: crazy person crazy. These are people with psychotic conditions, psychiatric illnesses. 91 00:05:42,600 --> 00:05:44,720 Speaker 7: And you can say, oh, don't call them that, don't 92 00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:47,240 Speaker 7: say that, all right, I'm bringing one to your house. 93 00:05:47,240 --> 00:05:49,200 Speaker 7: And locking the door, and you've got to stay inside. 94 00:05:50,839 --> 00:05:55,520 Speaker 7: They'll kill you, they'll burn the place down. Well, they 95 00:05:55,560 --> 00:05:57,159 Speaker 7: need help, Yes, they need help. 96 00:05:57,240 --> 00:05:58,360 Speaker 2: Would you like to provide it? 97 00:05:59,200 --> 00:06:03,520 Speaker 7: Everybody? Everybody loves to not judge. Not judging it so good, 98 00:06:03,839 --> 00:06:05,880 Speaker 7: And as long as you don't have to live amongst it, 99 00:06:06,560 --> 00:06:09,400 Speaker 7: you can be high minded. I don't use those terms. 100 00:06:09,839 --> 00:06:12,440 Speaker 7: I don't say those things. You don't admit to those things. 101 00:06:13,720 --> 00:06:20,919 Speaker 7: Nobody wants to live next to the crazy, psychotic, psychiatrically 102 00:06:21,160 --> 00:06:29,120 Speaker 7: ill mental person who is homeless. Homeless is not the 103 00:06:29,160 --> 00:06:32,719 Speaker 7: important part. The fact that they don't have a bedroom 104 00:06:32,920 --> 00:06:36,640 Speaker 7: is not the problem. The fact that they don't have 105 00:06:36,680 --> 00:06:39,440 Speaker 7: a bedroom is not the basis of why you don't 106 00:06:39,480 --> 00:06:44,440 Speaker 7: like them. It's not even how disgusting it is to 107 00:06:44,520 --> 00:06:51,080 Speaker 7: drive under an overpass and see the squalor of trash 108 00:06:51,240 --> 00:06:57,200 Speaker 7: and sheets and mud and drugs and somebody, you know, 109 00:06:57,240 --> 00:07:02,800 Speaker 7: their head shaking like they're in the middle of an earthquake, 110 00:07:04,160 --> 00:07:07,200 Speaker 7: their eyes like saucers, like they're coming out of their heads. 111 00:07:09,200 --> 00:07:11,040 Speaker 2: It's not even that you don't want to look at that. 112 00:07:12,080 --> 00:07:16,200 Speaker 7: It's that if you walk past that one hundred times, 113 00:07:16,640 --> 00:07:20,239 Speaker 7: there's going to be a confrontation and the white liberal 114 00:07:20,360 --> 00:07:22,680 Speaker 7: idea is let's get as much of that going as 115 00:07:22,720 --> 00:07:25,000 Speaker 7: we possibly can, and it has destroyed. 116 00:07:25,320 --> 00:07:27,160 Speaker 2: They'll go diamonds. Cities of this country. 117 00:07:28,840 --> 00:07:32,160 Speaker 8: Need so. 118 00:07:32,280 --> 00:07:42,040 Speaker 7: Democrats realizing that they are very unpopular, more unpopular than 119 00:07:42,040 --> 00:07:45,360 Speaker 7: they've ever been since Poleon has been done, and that 120 00:07:45,440 --> 00:07:51,600 Speaker 7: Trump is surprisingly popular, they can't understand that their positions 121 00:07:51,600 --> 00:07:55,360 Speaker 7: are creepy, you know, Claiming that a grown man that 122 00:07:55,400 --> 00:07:57,880 Speaker 7: wants to have sex with a little girl that that's 123 00:07:57,920 --> 00:08:01,760 Speaker 7: not a crime, that's just his identity. Claiming that a 124 00:08:01,760 --> 00:08:04,400 Speaker 7: grown man who wants to walk into the women's restroom 125 00:08:04,800 --> 00:08:07,000 Speaker 7: that's not a crime, that's not a problem. We're going 126 00:08:07,080 --> 00:08:12,360 Speaker 7: to allow it because he thinks he's a woman. Claiming 127 00:08:12,400 --> 00:08:15,480 Speaker 7: that illegal aliens coming to this country and being given 128 00:08:15,560 --> 00:08:18,720 Speaker 7: every benefit to do so and then not prosecuted for 129 00:08:18,720 --> 00:08:21,680 Speaker 7: crimes when they get here is somehow a good thing. 130 00:08:22,040 --> 00:08:25,120 Speaker 7: All of these have made the Democrats very unpopular, and 131 00:08:25,160 --> 00:08:30,800 Speaker 7: they just can't grasp that these crazy ideas are problematic 132 00:08:31,040 --> 00:08:34,240 Speaker 7: to everyday Americans because they don't know every day Americans, 133 00:08:34,240 --> 00:08:35,960 Speaker 7: they don't live amongst every day Americans. 134 00:08:37,200 --> 00:08:38,200 Speaker 2: Well, somewhere along. 135 00:08:38,000 --> 00:08:41,880 Speaker 7: The way, a focus group told them that you got 136 00:08:41,880 --> 00:08:45,600 Speaker 7: to seem more relatable. You got to make voters like 137 00:08:45,679 --> 00:08:48,440 Speaker 7: you aside from the policies. They got to like you 138 00:08:50,320 --> 00:08:53,559 Speaker 7: and they like Trump. So here's what you have to do. 139 00:08:54,600 --> 00:09:01,439 Speaker 7: You have to cuss. That's right, more swearing. I mean Newsome, 140 00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:07,560 Speaker 7: Jasmine Crockett, Kamala Harris, and now Chuck Schumer have all 141 00:09:07,600 --> 00:09:11,600 Speaker 7: been cussing like sailors because somehow if they just cuss, 142 00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:15,160 Speaker 7: and by the way, when they do it. Kamala Harris 143 00:09:15,240 --> 00:09:18,800 Speaker 7: was given a speech to some black sorority group the 144 00:09:18,880 --> 00:09:22,920 Speaker 7: other day and she says, these m efforts and all 145 00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:27,400 Speaker 7: the fat black women went, was that hard to do? 146 00:09:28,840 --> 00:09:32,320 Speaker 7: I was pretty low bar. If you just cuss, then 147 00:09:32,520 --> 00:09:34,040 Speaker 7: you really impress the audience. 148 00:09:34,360 --> 00:09:34,720 Speaker 2: Okay. 149 00:09:35,760 --> 00:09:39,280 Speaker 7: Anyway, this is an ad with Chuck Schumer, Democrat from 150 00:09:39,280 --> 00:09:46,199 Speaker 7: New York, the leader in the Senate, and he's decided 151 00:09:46,240 --> 00:09:49,160 Speaker 7: that cussing, or they've told him that cussing will make 152 00:09:49,240 --> 00:09:50,040 Speaker 7: him more popular. 153 00:09:51,120 --> 00:09:54,000 Speaker 9: So now we're in a government shutdown, and you may 154 00:09:54,040 --> 00:09:58,360 Speaker 9: be asking yourself, how the hell did we get. 155 00:09:57,920 --> 00:10:00,080 Speaker 2: Donald Trump and the Republican. 156 00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:03,320 Speaker 9: Party are hell bent on taking healthcare away from sixty 157 00:10:03,720 --> 00:10:09,520 Speaker 9: million people, closing community clinics, rural hospitals, nursing homes. Also, 158 00:10:09,600 --> 00:10:13,120 Speaker 9: they can keep giving tax breaks to their billionaire friends. 159 00:10:13,320 --> 00:10:14,160 Speaker 2: It's a disgrace. 160 00:10:14,480 --> 00:10:19,920 Speaker 9: So Democrats have three words for this. No way, it's 161 00:10:20,080 --> 00:10:24,200 Speaker 9: literally life or death. We will not let Republicans blow 162 00:10:24,280 --> 00:10:27,720 Speaker 9: up our healthcare system. And this isn't the first time 163 00:10:27,800 --> 00:10:31,320 Speaker 9: they've tried to do this. Total repeal of the Obamacare bill, 164 00:10:31,679 --> 00:10:32,760 Speaker 9: or the second. 165 00:10:32,679 --> 00:10:37,959 Speaker 2: Appeal of Obamacare, or even the third. You get the point. 166 00:10:38,120 --> 00:10:41,880 Speaker 9: If Republicans are consistent about anything, it's about taking away 167 00:10:41,920 --> 00:10:46,160 Speaker 9: healthcare from as many of you as possible. Let's dive 168 00:10:46,200 --> 00:10:49,680 Speaker 9: into the facts. The so called Big Beautiful Bill, which 169 00:10:49,720 --> 00:10:53,280 Speaker 9: is really a big, ugly betrayal, cuts a trillion dollars 170 00:10:53,320 --> 00:10:58,200 Speaker 9: from healthcare and causes the ACA credits to expire.

Any reduction and benefits, any 193 00:12:10,640 --> 00:12:14,360 Speaker 10: reduction and coverage, means that those overdose numbers will go 194 00:12:14,600 --> 00:12:18,000 Speaker 10: right back up, suicides will go right back up. Anxiety 195 00:12:18,040 --> 00:12:21,800 Speaker 10: depression the bottom line, Donald Trump and the Republicans have 196 00:12:21,920 --> 00:12:25,040 Speaker 10: chosen to shut down the government rather than work with 197 00:12:25,120 --> 00:12:28,240 Speaker 10: us to diffuse the ticking time bomb that will blow 198 00:12:28,320 --> 00:12:32,640 Speaker 10: up healthcare for millions of Americans. Congressional Democrats are on 199 00:12:32,679 --> 00:12:36,200 Speaker 10: the side of the American people, and together we will. 200 00:12:36,000 --> 00:12:37,520 Speaker 2: Fight to make this right. 201 00:12:40,720 --> 00:12:47,440 Speaker 7: No effing way you're saying, no effing way, and that's 202 00:12:47,480 --> 00:12:55,920 Speaker 7: going to make that boring, dry little ad of yours better. 203 00:12:57,559 --> 00:13:00,880 Speaker 7: You're trying to give healthcare to I llegal alias, and 204 00:13:00,920 --> 00:13:04,280 Speaker 7: you're trying to make Americans pay for it. No amount 205 00:13:04,280 --> 00:13:07,120 Speaker 7: of cussing is going to make this any better. President 206 00:13:07,200 --> 00:13:11,000 Speaker 7: Trump told reporters that Democrats made a big mistake shutting 207 00:13:11,040 --> 00:13:11,840 Speaker 7: the government down. 208 00:13:11,960 --> 00:13:13,880 Speaker 1: They have a party that's out of control. They have 209 00:13:13,920 --> 00:13:16,760 Speaker 1: no leader. Nobody knows who the leader is. I look 210 00:13:16,800 --> 00:13:20,280 Speaker 1: at people with very low IQs like Crockett. This woman Crockett, 211 00:13:20,280 --> 00:13:23,199 Speaker 1: I never met her, but she's a low IQ individual. 212 00:13:24,120 --> 00:13:27,280 Speaker 1: I look at AOC talking about how if they want 213 00:13:27,320 --> 00:13:29,400 Speaker 1: to negotiate, they can come to my office. 214 00:13:29,400 --> 00:13:32,240 Speaker 2: She's done in that position to do that. And who 215 00:13:32,320 --> 00:13:33,480 Speaker 2: the hell is she just say that? 216 00:13:33,960 --> 00:13:36,520 Speaker 1: And then I watched Nancy Pelosi not knowing what to do. 217 00:13:36,600 --> 00:13:42,160 Speaker 1: I watch their leadership. Pilip Schumer is petrified of primary 218 00:13:42,160 --> 00:13:45,000 Speaker 1: because he's not going to win probably against anybody in 219 00:13:45,080 --> 00:13:47,120 Speaker 1: a primary. 220 00:13:48,120 --> 00:13:50,880 Speaker 7: Then he said the Democrats are leaderless, which is true, 221 00:13:51,720 --> 00:13:53,600 Speaker 7: and that they remind him of Somalia. 222 00:13:54,240 --> 00:13:54,800 Speaker 2: I'll tell you what. 223 00:13:55,080 --> 00:13:58,600 Speaker 1: I'm getting calls from Democrats wanting to meet I never 224 00:13:58,600 --> 00:14:01,559 Speaker 1: even heard their names before, and they're flaming to be leaving. 225 00:14:01,679 --> 00:14:07,840 Speaker 1: The Democrats have no leader. They remind me of Somalia. Okay, 226 00:14:08,720 --> 00:14:11,400 Speaker 1: you know, and I met the president of Somalia. I 227 00:14:11,400 --> 00:14:14,000 Speaker 1: told him about the problem with Scott. I said, you 228 00:14:14,000 --> 00:14:16,400 Speaker 1: have somebody from Somalia who's telling us how to run 229 00:14:16,480 --> 00:14:18,400 Speaker 1: our country from Somalia. 230 00:14:18,480 --> 00:14:21,240 Speaker 2: He said, would you like to take her back? He said, no, 231 00:14:21,280 --> 00:14:24,200 Speaker 2: I don't want her. Okay, you know who I'm talking about. 232 00:14:26,520 --> 00:14:30,800 Speaker 7: You know what I love about Trump is that's not 233 00:14:30,960 --> 00:14:34,320 Speaker 7: the most important thing he's going to do today, but 234 00:14:34,400 --> 00:14:37,080 Speaker 7: that's the kind of stuff that is relatable. We're talking 235 00:14:37,120 --> 00:14:41,960 Speaker 7: earlier about being relatable. You know, if you're a guy's 236 00:14:42,000 --> 00:14:45,160 Speaker 7: been working his butt off all day out at the 237 00:14:45,680 --> 00:14:49,640 Speaker 7: plant or at the job site, and you get in 238 00:14:49,720 --> 00:14:54,440 Speaker 7: your truck and you're driving home, and you're probably going 239 00:14:54,520 --> 00:14:57,960 Speaker 7: to watch too much Fox News tonight, and it's going 240 00:14:58,040 --> 00:15:00,920 Speaker 7: to make you really mad. In order to make you 241 00:15:01,000 --> 00:15:03,040 Speaker 7: mad and keep you engaged, they're going to show you 242 00:15:03,080 --> 00:15:07,720 Speaker 7: AOC or they're going to show you ilhan Omar, who 243 00:15:08,360 --> 00:15:10,680 Speaker 7: is going to say this is a horrible country, and 244 00:15:10,800 --> 00:15:14,560 Speaker 7: Charlie Kirk was a bad guy, and you're gonna be furious, 245 00:15:15,440 --> 00:15:19,760 Speaker 7: and then Trump makes it all okay because he basically 246 00:15:19,880 --> 00:15:25,280 Speaker 7: just just diminishes these people. That guy loves Trump and 247 00:15:25,320 --> 00:15:33,400 Speaker 7: the Democrats have no loyalties like that. My brother was 248 00:15:33,440 --> 00:15:37,920 Speaker 7: a law enforcement officer for over thirty years, and every time. 249 00:15:37,720 --> 00:15:39,840 Speaker 2: I saw. 250 00:15:41,320 --> 00:15:46,560 Speaker 7: Law enforcement officer gunned down, run over by a car 251 00:15:46,640 --> 00:15:50,000 Speaker 7: with a woman south of Houston in the department that 252 00:15:50,040 --> 00:15:54,600 Speaker 7: she was run over by a bad guy, knifed to death, 253 00:15:55,760 --> 00:15:58,360 Speaker 7: bomb goes off, all the different ways that bad guys 254 00:15:58,440 --> 00:16:02,560 Speaker 7: kill cops.

He had an awesome and beautiful smile. 345 00:22:00,040 --> 00:22:03,680 Speaker 11: Left without that smile this evening are Deputy Riley's two daughters. 346 00:22:04,000 --> 00:22:06,560 Speaker 8: My guys went with his family last night to two 347 00:22:06,600 --> 00:22:09,439 Speaker 8: o'clock this morning, made sure they were. 348 00:22:09,359 --> 00:22:11,879 Speaker 11: Taken care of, just like an Aibhberville Paris to flag 349 00:22:11,920 --> 00:22:15,080 Speaker 11: here against AUSTPD sits at half staff, honoring the life 350 00:22:15,080 --> 00:22:17,399 Speaker 11: of Deputy Riley, who touched the hearts of so many 351 00:22:17,560 --> 00:22:19,840 Speaker 11: and also serving as a reminder of the risks that 352 00:22:19,880 --> 00:22:22,120 Speaker 11: come along with a career in law enforcement. 353 00:22:21,960 --> 00:22:24,040 Speaker 12: Any kind of law enforcement officer. He just give them line, 354 00:22:24,080 --> 00:22:26,119 Speaker 12: dude is always hard, but this one hit home. I 355 00:22:26,119 --> 00:22:27,840 Speaker 12: mean I actually knew him. He rode in the same 356 00:22:27,880 --> 00:22:29,960 Speaker 12: call with me, watching him as little kid, grow up 357 00:22:30,000 --> 00:22:32,679 Speaker 12: to be a man, have a family, raised kids, and 358 00:22:32,680 --> 00:22:33,600 Speaker 12: it's just it's just it's. 359 00:22:33,520 --> 00:22:34,560 Speaker 2: A hard man. Officer. 360 00:22:34,680 --> 00:22:38,560 Speaker 11: Dwayne Carpenter, a longtime family friend, often mentored Riley in 361 00:22:38,600 --> 00:22:40,159 Speaker 11: those early years on the force. 362 00:22:40,600 --> 00:22:42,119 Speaker 12: We would go to a college to say, like an 363 00:22:42,160 --> 00:22:44,000 Speaker 12: accident with injuries, and he would always try to make 364 00:22:44,000 --> 00:22:45,280 Speaker 12: the people feel better who were in the wreck. You 365 00:22:45,320 --> 00:22:47,320 Speaker 12: if they were shaking and upset and crying. He would 366 00:22:47,359 --> 00:22:48,760 Speaker 12: tell the kids a joke or he would try to, 367 00:22:48,800 --> 00:22:51,000 Speaker 12: you know, make him laugh and smile. And everybody always 368 00:22:51,040 --> 00:22:52,440 Speaker 12: come froment on the smile. He's like, man, you gotta 369 00:22:52,440 --> 00:22:53,800 Speaker 12: get a nice smile. You got a pretty smile. You know, 370 00:22:53,800 --> 00:22:55,760 Speaker 12: you're always smiling. And everybody here he worked with was 371 00:22:55,760 --> 00:22:57,560 Speaker 12: always telling men, you're always happy. You always you always 372 00:22:57,560 --> 00:23:00,280 Speaker 12: seem like happy about everything, and they just I've never 373 00:23:00,280 --> 00:23:01,560 Speaker 12: seen that have a bad day. Always want to make 374 00:23:01,600 --> 00:23:04,080 Speaker 12: everybody's day better. You know, he put everybody before myself. 375 00:23:04,320 --> 00:23:04,800 Speaker 13: But W. D. 376 00:23:04,960 --> 00:23:07,199 Speaker 11: Riley didn't just put on a smiling face when he 377 00:23:07,280 --> 00:23:10,240 Speaker 11: was on the job. Even his fifth grade teacher remembers 378 00:23:10,320 --> 00:23:11,000 Speaker 11: him that way. 379 00:23:11,320 --> 00:23:14,240 Speaker 4: Oh what I you know remember mostly about him is 380 00:23:14,280 --> 00:23:17,800 Speaker 4: he always made me smile. Like you know, sometimes I'd 381 00:23:17,840 --> 00:23:20,280 Speaker 4: want to pull my hair out with most kids, but 382 00:23:21,200 --> 00:23:22,919 Speaker 4: he always put a smile on my face. 383 00:23:23,119 --> 00:23:25,880 Speaker 11: And all those years later, his impact remains. 384 00:23:26,200 --> 00:23:28,680 Speaker 4: And when you hear something like that, one of the 385 00:23:28,760 --> 00:23:30,399 Speaker 4: ones they sat in your class for all, you know, 386 00:23:30,480 --> 00:23:32,720 Speaker 4: each and every day for a whole year, it really 387 00:23:32,800 --> 00:23:33,119 Speaker 4: hits you. 388 00:23:33,400 --> 00:23:36,560 Speaker 7: So how long does this happen? I guess it doesn't 389 00:23:36,600 --> 00:23:39,800 Speaker 7: matter as long as it wasn't your family, right. I 390 00:23:39,840 --> 00:23:44,400 Speaker 7: guess we just keep allowing legals and thugs to murder us. 391 00:23:45,800 --> 00:23:48,480 Speaker 7: And I guess eventually enough of us will be gone 392 00:23:48,480 --> 00:23:50,639 Speaker 7: that there won't be able to be a force that 393 00:23:50,680 --> 00:23:51,560 Speaker 7: can respond to it. 394 00:23:52,520 --> 00:23:55,000 Speaker 2: I don't know. For now, let's just don't do anything 395 00:23:55,000 --> 00:23:56,520 Speaker 2: that would have us be called racist. 396 00:23:59,080 --> 00:24:02,720 Speaker 1: A recession is when your neighbor loses his job. A 397 00:24:02,880 --> 00:24:08,240 Speaker 1: depression is when you lose your berry, and recovery. 398 00:24:08,000 --> 00:24:10,400 Speaker 2: Is when Jimmy Carter loses. 399 00:24:09,960 --> 00:24:17,399 Speaker 14: His Well, there are new rumors swirling in the US 400 00:24:17,640 --> 00:24:20,560 Speaker 14: Senate race or the great state of Texas. 401 00:24:20,640 --> 00:24:24,440 Speaker 7: We'll get to those in just a moment, but let's 402 00:24:24,440 --> 00:24:27,399 Speaker 7: get a glimpse of exactly who John Cornyn is. 403 00:24:28,320 --> 00:24:31,159 Speaker 2: He went on the record, as we've talked about last. 404 00:24:30,960 --> 00:24:35,640 Speaker 7: Year, calling on Donald Trump not to run for president, 405 00:24:36,520 --> 00:24:39,199 Speaker 7: and he said that Republican, the Republican Party needs to 406 00:24:39,240 --> 00:24:40,800 Speaker 7: move past Donald Trump. 407 00:24:41,119 --> 00:24:45,920 Speaker 2: His time has passed. This is John Cornyn. 408 00:24:47,119 --> 00:24:52,520 Speaker 7: Questioning then FBI Director Christopher Ray. 409 00:24:53,440 --> 00:24:55,480 Speaker 2: About the events of January sixth. 410 00:24:57,520 --> 00:25:00,800 Speaker 7: Since this time, we have come to learn that there 411 00:25:00,800 --> 00:25:06,199 Speaker 7: were almost three hundred FBI agents sprinkled in between the 412 00:25:06,359 --> 00:25:11,640 Speaker 7: January sixth protesters, people walking along as we see people 413 00:25:11,680 --> 00:25:14,840 Speaker 7: do all day every day now, except this group wasn't violent, 414 00:25:16,160 --> 00:25:21,560 Speaker 7: singing patriotic songs, little old ladies as they walked along 415 00:25:21,600 --> 00:25:25,280 Speaker 7: in their red, white, and blue, some reading the Constitution aloud. 416 00:25:25,840 --> 00:25:27,320 Speaker 2: We know that the FBI was. 417 00:25:27,280 --> 00:25:29,760 Speaker 7: Calling for them as if they were one of them, 418 00:25:30,080 --> 00:25:33,520 Speaker 7: smash the windows, go in, do some damage. They wanted 419 00:25:33,560 --> 00:25:38,680 Speaker 7: to destroy Trump out of this movement and Christopher Ray's involvement. Well, 420 00:25:40,119 --> 00:25:48,440 Speaker 7: notice how John Cornyan compares January sixth to nine to eleven, 421 00:25:49,960 --> 00:25:57,240 Speaker 7: as if our neighbors were somehow Osama bin Laden taking 422 00:25:57,280 --> 00:26:02,280 Speaker 7: down the Twin Towers, and then he laments that the 423 00:26:02,400 --> 00:26:07,960 Speaker 7: January sixth ers were not charged for domestic terrorism. He 424 00:26:08,040 --> 00:26:11,080 Speaker 7: wanted people charge for domestic terrorism. You think he didn't 425 00:26:11,119 --> 00:26:14,200 Speaker 7: know that the FBI had been pushing these people, trying 426 00:26:14,200 --> 00:26:16,919 Speaker 7: to get them to commit violent crimes. The only person 427 00:26:16,920 --> 00:26:19,400 Speaker 7: who died that day as a result of what happened 428 00:26:19,680 --> 00:26:23,840 Speaker 7: was Ashley Babbitt, an unarmed military veteran who was shot 429 00:26:23,920 --> 00:26:27,080 Speaker 7: by a Capitol police officer. She was about five feet 430 00:26:27,119 --> 00:26:30,080 Speaker 7: tall and one hundred and ten pounds. But listen to 431 00:26:30,080 --> 00:26:33,240 Speaker 7: what John Cornyn said, Director. 432 00:26:32,840 --> 00:26:36,000 Speaker 13: Ray after the events of nine to eleven. I think 433 00:26:36,040 --> 00:26:39,800 Speaker 13: it was Admiral Bobby Inman who coined the phrase of 434 00:26:39,920 --> 00:26:44,040 Speaker 13: failure of imagination. We just couldn't conceive of the idea 435 00:26:44,640 --> 00:26:48,359 Speaker 13: that something like what happened on nine to eleven would occur. 436 00:26:48,960 --> 00:26:52,480 Speaker 13: But that was a failure to imagine it. And it 437 00:26:52,520 --> 00:26:56,520 Speaker 13: strikes me that the events of January the sixth share 438 00:26:56,800 --> 00:26:59,480 Speaker 13: something in common with nine to eleven in the sense 439 00:26:59,520 --> 00:27:03,560 Speaker 13: that seemed like there was a failure of imagination. That's 440 00:27:03,600 --> 00:27:06,720 Speaker 13: not to point the finger at any buddy to blame, 441 00:27:06,760 --> 00:27:11,040 Speaker 13: but merely to try to describe what I think may 442 00:27:11,080 --> 00:27:15,640 Speaker 13: have occurred. So I think you've told us that these 443 00:27:15,720 --> 00:27:17,560 Speaker 13: extremists are not monolithic. 444 00:27:18,160 --> 00:27:20,160 Speaker 2: Is that correct? That's correct. 445 00:27:20,480 --> 00:27:24,960 Speaker 13: Well, I've heard the expression that here in Washington, whoever 446 00:27:25,040 --> 00:27:29,480 Speaker 13: has the best narrative wins, and so sometimes I think 447 00:27:29,520 --> 00:27:34,080 Speaker 13: the narrative is created and then try to search for 448 00:27:34,160 --> 00:27:39,200 Speaker 13: facts that might bolster that narrative. But as you said, 449 00:27:39,240 --> 00:27:44,119 Speaker 13: the fact is, these extremist groups are not monolithic. So 450 00:27:44,800 --> 00:27:48,159 Speaker 13: that's I think an important part of understanding the threat. 451 00:27:48,760 --> 00:27:50,000 Speaker 2: I've heard them described. 452 00:27:50,240 --> 00:28:00,879 Speaker 13: Some of these folks described as white supremacists, domestic terrorists, insurrectionists, rioters, seditionists, anarchists, 453 00:28:01,520 --> 00:28:05,639 Speaker 13: the list goes on and on. But I note that 454 00:28:05,760 --> 00:28:11,080 Speaker 13: you said there is no federal crime described as domestic 455 00:28:11,200 --> 00:28:12,160 Speaker 13: terrorism per se. 456 00:28:12,320 --> 00:28:14,240 Speaker 2: Correct, that's correct. 457 00:28:14,520 --> 00:28:17,960 Speaker 13: And as I look at the range of charges that 458 00:28:18,040 --> 00:28:23,960 Speaker 13: the FBI and the Department of Justice have made against 459 00:28:24,000 --> 00:28:27,080 Speaker 13: the people that have been investigated for the events of 460 00:28:27,160 --> 00:28:31,800 Speaker 13: January sixth, I read a list of assaulting federal officers, 461 00:28:32,560 --> 00:28:39,520 Speaker 13: tampering with documents or proceedings, unlawful entry, disorderly conduct, conspiracy, 462 00:28:40,080 --> 00:28:45,040 Speaker 13: theft of government property. Do you think the current laws 463 00:28:45,480 --> 00:28:48,840 Speaker 13: are adequate to deal with this threat? It strikes me 464 00:28:49,000 --> 00:28:52,920 Speaker 13: these are a lot of different tools that are available 465 00:28:52,960 --> 00:28:57,600 Speaker 13: but don't really get to the whole heart of domestic terrorism. 466 00:28:57,800 --> 00:29:02,560 Speaker 7: Let's be very clear what's going on here. John Wayne 467 00:29:02,600 --> 00:29:06,800 Speaker 7: mccornyn is not liked by the Magabase Tea Party didn't 468 00:29:06,880 --> 00:29:08,920 Speaker 7: like him, MAGA folks won't like him. 469 00:29:09,160 --> 00:29:10,280 Speaker 2: There's a huge overlap. 470 00:29:12,720 --> 00:29:16,160 Speaker 7: He would like to be able to make people out 471 00:29:16,280 --> 00:29:20,680 Speaker 7: who are not his supporters and Republicans. He would like 472 00:29:20,720 --> 00:29:23,920 Speaker 7: to make them out to be criminals. He would like 473 00:29:24,080 --> 00:29:27,320 Speaker 7: to finish them off, put them in prison. 474 00:29:27,880 --> 00:29:28,800 Speaker 2: They are terrorists. 475 00:29:28,960 --> 00:29:32,400 Speaker 7: This is what the Democrats do, and this is what 476 00:29:32,440 --> 00:29:37,680 Speaker 7: their swamp partners, people like John Cornyn do. Cornyan was 477 00:29:37,720 --> 00:29:41,000 Speaker 7: a big fan of Christopher Ray. He even said this 478 00:29:41,520 --> 00:29:42,440 Speaker 7: on the Senate floor. 479 00:29:43,360 --> 00:29:47,000 Speaker 13: Under the effective leadership of Director Ray, the agency has 480 00:29:47,040 --> 00:29:51,240 Speaker 13: remained committed to doing things independently and buy the book, 481 00:29:51,760 --> 00:29:55,320 Speaker 13: which I think is perhaps the most important characteristic. 482 00:29:56,200 --> 00:30:00,000 Speaker 7: John Cornyn said of Merrick Garland, I'm under no illusi 483 00:30:00,040 --> 00:30:03,280 Speaker 7: usion that Judge Garland will be a firm check on 484 00:30:03,480 --> 00:30:10,400 Speaker 7: progressive's ideological wish list during his tenure. Why would you 485 00:30:10,600 --> 00:30:13,760 Speaker 7: need to make the point. Yeah, I'm very well aware 486 00:30:14,680 --> 00:30:18,640 Speaker 7: that Merrick Garland as the attorney general, the man who 487 00:30:18,720 --> 00:30:23,720 Speaker 7: went after Trump, the man who went after Conservatives, the 488 00:30:23,800 --> 00:30:30,480 Speaker 7: man who absolutely declared war, the hitman for the bidens 489 00:30:30,520 --> 00:30:36,440 Speaker 7: on Republicans, Why would he make the point. 490 00:30:36,200 --> 00:30:38,000 Speaker 2: I don't want you all to think he's I think 491 00:30:38,040 --> 00:30:38,840 Speaker 2: he's a good guy. 492 00:30:39,480 --> 00:30:44,280 Speaker 7: I'm under no illusion that Judge Garland will be a 493 00:30:44,400 --> 00:30:50,440 Speaker 7: firm check on progressive's ideological wish list during his tenure. 494 00:30:51,960 --> 00:30:57,360 Speaker 7: The only check on Merrick Garland was voting against him 495 00:30:57,960 --> 00:31:03,320 Speaker 7: to when he was nominated for attorney general, but John 496 00:31:03,360 --> 00:31:04,720 Speaker 7: Corndon didn't do that. 497 00:31:06,400 --> 00:31:08,280 Speaker 2: Press release from John Corn at the time. 498 00:31:08,320 --> 00:31:11,960 Speaker 7: Today, on the floor, US Senator John Corn announced his 499 00:31:12,040 --> 00:31:16,160 Speaker 7: support of Judge Merrick Garland's nomination to be US Attorney General. 500 00:31:17,080 --> 00:31:19,040 Speaker 2: Excerpts from his remarks are below. 501 00:31:20,040 --> 00:31:22,480 Speaker 7: This morning, I had a very good conversation with Judge 502 00:31:22,520 --> 00:31:26,200 Speaker 7: Merrick Garland, who President Trump has nominated for Attorney General. 503 00:31:27,000 --> 00:31:30,560 Speaker 7: Judge Garland's extensive legal experience makes him well suited to 504 00:31:30,640 --> 00:31:34,680 Speaker 7: lead the Department of Justice, and I appreciated his commitment 505 00:31:34,720 --> 00:31:40,880 Speaker 7: to keep politics out of the Justice Department. That is 506 00:31:40,960 --> 00:31:44,440 Speaker 7: my number one criterion for who should be the next 507 00:31:44,480 --> 00:31:47,040 Speaker 7: head of the Department of Justice as Attorney General. 508 00:31:52,120 --> 00:31:52,440 Speaker 2: Sure. 509 00:31:53,040 --> 00:31:56,880 Speaker 7: Sure, he's not going to bring politics into it.
