4
00:00:21,377 --> 00:00:25,577
Speaker 1: Freedom Hunt Friday, August nineteenth edition of the program. We've

5
00:00:25,617 --> 00:00:30,377
Speaker 1: got a whole lot of crime stories and a Republican

6
00:00:31,177 --> 00:00:33,977
Speaker 1: Party that is flailing right now to try to make

7
00:00:34,057 --> 00:00:36,457
Speaker 1: sense of why their numbers are dropping. I got an

8
00:00:36,497 --> 00:00:39,737
Speaker 1: idea talk about crime. I got an idea talk about

9
00:00:39,777 --> 00:00:43,137
Speaker 1: the border. We'll get into that coming up here in

10
00:00:43,177 --> 00:00:47,097
Speaker 1: just a second. Plus, the Morilago raid likely to fade

11
00:00:47,137 --> 00:00:52,897
Speaker 1: the CDC, the worst three letter federal agency in existence.

12
00:00:53,417 --> 00:00:55,737
Speaker 1: I'm discussing that in just a moment here. But have

13
00:00:55,817 --> 00:00:58,657
Speaker 1: you ever heard the news of a data breach at Twitter?

14
00:00:59,057 --> 00:01:01,857
Speaker 1: Because it happened eight months ago, but it affected more

15
00:01:01,857 --> 00:01:04,937
Speaker 1: than five million users. According to reports, the phone numbers

16
00:01:04,937 --> 00:01:07,217
Speaker 1: and email addresses of those Twitter accounts were placed for

17
00:01:07,217 --> 00:01:09,817
Speaker 1: sale on the dark web. Twitter verified the bug, the

18
00:01:10,097 --> 00:01:12,297
Speaker 1: yber thief used to access the data, and that it

19
00:01:12,377 --> 00:01:14,857
Speaker 1: was fixed, but that stolen data is now for sale

20
00:01:14,977 --> 00:01:17,457
Speaker 1: on the black market. This is a great example of

21
00:01:17,457 --> 00:01:20,017
Speaker 1: how cyber thieves operate, first to data breach and then

22
00:01:20,057 --> 00:01:22,097
Speaker 1: the sale of that data. Then your data is in

23
00:01:22,137 --> 00:01:24,937
Speaker 1: the wrong hands without you knowing about it. It's important

24
00:01:24,937 --> 00:01:28,297
Speaker 1: to understand how cybercrime and identity theft are affecting our lives.

39
00:02:10,937 --> 00:02:16,377
Speaker 1: I got an idea just talking about inflation and start

40
00:02:16,457 --> 00:02:20,577
Speaker 1: talking about things like the border which is wide open,

41
00:02:21,297 --> 00:02:24,337
Speaker 1: which is the most lawless it has ever been because

42
00:02:24,377 --> 00:02:28,897
Speaker 1: of Democrat policies and crime, which is a huge problem.

43
00:02:28,937 --> 00:02:30,897
Speaker 1: Not just in big cities, It's a big problem in

44
00:02:31,617 --> 00:02:34,177
Speaker 1: places all over the country. These days, pretty much the

45
00:02:34,177 --> 00:02:39,017
Speaker 1: whole country is going through a surge in crime, and

46
00:02:39,057 --> 00:02:41,097
Speaker 1: I think people need to talk about this a whole

47
00:02:41,137 --> 00:02:44,777
Speaker 1: lot more. Here is, for example, last night on Hannity's

48
00:02:44,777 --> 00:02:47,697
Speaker 1: show on Fox, Stephen Miller, formerly the Trump White House,

49
00:02:47,737 --> 00:02:52,017
Speaker 1: saying that Republicans need to wake up and start talking

50
00:02:52,017 --> 00:02:54,857
Speaker 1: to people about what matters in advance of this mid

51
00:02:55,017 --> 00:02:57,537
Speaker 1: term or else they're going to forget and there will

52
00:02:57,617 --> 00:03:00,217
Speaker 1: be no accountability. Play the clip. I was a congressional

53
00:03:00,217 --> 00:03:02,297
Speaker 1: staffer for almost a decade. I went to all of

54
00:03:02,297 --> 00:03:05,177
Speaker 1: these presentations. So what they do is they sit you

55
00:03:05,257 --> 00:03:07,697
Speaker 1: down and they say, well, we ran a message and

56
00:03:07,737 --> 00:03:11,857
Speaker 1: it says that controlling, wasteful Washington spending pulls at ninety

57
00:03:11,857 --> 00:03:14,137
Speaker 1: five percent, to which I would say, you what else

58
00:03:14,177 --> 00:03:17,457
Speaker 1: pulls it ninety five percent? I like cotton candy. I

59
00:03:17,497 --> 00:03:20,217
Speaker 1: think airplanes are really neat and super cool, but I

60
00:03:20,257 --> 00:03:24,137
Speaker 1: enjoy watching movies on Sunday. None of that gets anybody elected.

61
00:03:24,497 --> 00:03:27,897
Speaker 1: What gets people elected is pushing messages where there's nowhere

62
00:03:27,897 --> 00:03:31,297
Speaker 1: to hide. I'm for putting criminals behind bars. I'm for

63
00:03:31,377 --> 00:03:34,177
Speaker 1: deporting legal aliens, and you're not so I wouldn't you lose?

64
00:03:34,297 --> 00:03:40,577
Speaker 1: That's how you win election. Yes, he's right. The American

65
00:03:40,657 --> 00:03:44,897
Speaker 1: people that we need to vote Republican care about the

66
00:03:44,937 --> 00:03:50,697
Speaker 1: southern border, independent swing voters, the voters who are up

67
00:03:50,697 --> 00:03:53,137
Speaker 1: for grabs, care about the issue of crime. I mean,

68
00:03:53,217 --> 00:03:56,577
Speaker 1: just in the last twenty four hours or so, you

69
00:03:56,697 --> 00:04:01,537
Speaker 1: take a look at what has been what has been reported.

70
00:04:01,777 --> 00:04:04,857
Speaker 1: I mean you had the NYPD released a video of

71
00:04:05,057 --> 00:04:13,457
Speaker 1: five teenagers, including three girls girls, female teenagers, who stomped

72
00:04:13,497 --> 00:04:19,297
Speaker 1: and pounded a cab driver to death on video. Guy's married,

73
00:04:19,337 --> 00:04:22,897
Speaker 1: he's got children. Now he's dead because they skipped out

74
00:04:22,937 --> 00:04:25,937
Speaker 1: on a fair and he chased after them. They beat

75
00:04:26,017 --> 00:04:28,417
Speaker 1: him to death with their bare hands. Do you think

76
00:04:28,417 --> 00:04:30,097
Speaker 1: any of those teenagers are going to spend a lot

77
00:04:30,097 --> 00:04:32,737
Speaker 1: of time in prison for that, No guarantee they won't.

78
00:04:33,097 --> 00:04:35,617
Speaker 1: They'll go to some juvenile facility for a little while,

79
00:04:35,657 --> 00:04:38,617
Speaker 1: they'll be released, and then there'll be some left wing

80
00:04:38,737 --> 00:04:41,537
Speaker 1: legal organization. They're trying to get it expunged entirely from

81
00:04:41,537 --> 00:04:44,337
Speaker 1: their records so that it doesn't stop hurt their job prospects.

82
00:04:45,177 --> 00:04:50,137
Speaker 1: Murderer guy, murder guy, another individual who you've probably seen,

83
00:04:50,817 --> 00:04:57,817
Speaker 1: who just punched out of nowhere, just blindsided punched somebody

84
00:04:57,937 --> 00:05:02,577
Speaker 1: and almost killed the guy, put him in a coma.

85
00:05:02,897 --> 00:05:07,417
Speaker 1: Nothing in terms of major charges against him. And he's

86
00:05:07,457 --> 00:05:12,137
Speaker 1: somebody who also has a sexual a sexual assault past.

87
00:05:13,417 --> 00:05:16,377
Speaker 1: So you know, you wonder what is it going to take,

88
00:05:17,177 --> 00:05:19,537
Speaker 1: What is it gonna take for people to realize the

89
00:05:19,577 --> 00:05:22,417
Speaker 1: libs are crazy folks. They're just letting people out of

90
00:05:22,457 --> 00:05:26,257
Speaker 1: prison who do really bad things. They're letting criminals free

91
00:05:26,297 --> 00:05:30,057
Speaker 1: who are bad people who need to be punished. I mean,

92
00:05:30,057 --> 00:05:33,737
Speaker 1: this is a convicted sex offender who cold cocked a

93
00:05:33,817 --> 00:05:37,017
Speaker 1: guy on a Bronx street, leaving him in a coma

94
00:05:37,177 --> 00:05:40,977
Speaker 1: with brain injuries. This just happened on This happened a

95
00:05:40,977 --> 00:05:46,017
Speaker 1: few days ago, and this guy, Bui van Fu, he

96
00:05:46,097 --> 00:05:48,817
Speaker 1: was charged by the Bronx District Attorney's office with assault

97
00:05:48,817 --> 00:05:53,457
Speaker 1: and harassment, which are misdemeanors. The victim requires brain surgery.

98
00:05:53,977 --> 00:05:58,137
Speaker 1: This guy got charged with misdemeanors. Already already released, already released,

99
00:05:58,577 --> 00:06:01,457
Speaker 1: these psycho libs who think the world is going to

100
00:06:01,577 --> 00:06:04,737
Speaker 1: end because of CO two and climate change. Also, somehow

101
00:06:04,817 --> 00:06:10,577
Speaker 1: think that holding violent criminals accountable is bad, probably racist.

102
00:06:11,457 --> 00:06:14,017
Speaker 1: Usually that's what they say. It's just racist, enforcing the

103
00:06:14,097 --> 00:06:18,737
Speaker 1: law racist. And you say, well, wait, what, who's involved

104
00:06:18,777 --> 00:06:20,377
Speaker 1: and why is it raised? They don't care. They just

105
00:06:20,377 --> 00:06:24,337
Speaker 1: call it racist. There's so many of these of these incidents.

106
00:06:24,337 --> 00:06:27,657
Speaker 1: San Francisco, Cleveland, and Portland's downtowns are the most deserted

107
00:06:27,657 --> 00:06:30,977
Speaker 1: in the country. A number of other cities, including New Orleans,

108
00:06:31,057 --> 00:06:35,097
Speaker 1: deserted downtowns too. You know why crime, Why is crime

109
00:06:35,257 --> 00:06:39,857
Speaker 1: up so high in these places? Because Democrats decided that

110
00:06:39,857 --> 00:06:42,737
Speaker 1: that's what needs to happen to make our society function better,

111
00:06:43,497 --> 00:06:46,497
Speaker 1: We need to empty out the prisons. In fact, here

112
00:06:46,537 --> 00:06:50,817
Speaker 1: we got John Fetterman, who's running for Senate in Pennsylvania

113
00:06:50,937 --> 00:06:52,657
Speaker 1: right now, has in the polls a pretty big lead

114
00:06:52,697 --> 00:06:55,817
Speaker 1: over doctor Oz, which is just I don't know. I

115
00:06:55,897 --> 00:06:59,297
Speaker 1: cannot imagine being so foolish and having such poor judgment

116
00:06:59,377 --> 00:07:02,337
Speaker 1: that thinking this guy Fetterman is a good option for

117
00:07:02,337 --> 00:07:04,537
Speaker 1: the state of Pennsylvania. But there are people that's what

118
00:07:04,577 --> 00:07:08,497
Speaker 1: they think. Here he is saying that he agrees this

119
00:07:08,577 --> 00:07:10,297
Speaker 1: is a couple of years ago, did he agree with

120
00:07:10,377 --> 00:07:13,857
Speaker 1: emptying out prisons in Pennsylvania play that club. I was

121
00:07:13,897 --> 00:07:17,857
Speaker 1: on a panel with Secretary Wetzel earlier before the pandemic hit,

122
00:07:18,217 --> 00:07:21,457
Speaker 1: and he said something remarkable that I agree with. He said,

123
00:07:21,857 --> 00:07:25,777
Speaker 1: we could reduce our prison population by a third and

124
00:07:25,857 --> 00:07:29,017
Speaker 1: not make anyone less safe in Pennsylvania. And that's a

125
00:07:29,017 --> 00:07:35,777
Speaker 1: profound statement, a profoundly stupid statement that has been proven wrong.

126
00:07:36,497 --> 00:07:41,817
Speaker 1: Prisons have released lots and lots of inmates in Pennsylvania.

127
00:07:41,937 --> 00:07:44,137
Speaker 1: I think in the pensyl in the Philadelphia area it's

128
00:07:44,137 --> 00:07:47,737
Speaker 1: down about thirty percent. Philadelphia had its worst year ever

129
00:07:47,777 --> 00:07:50,337
Speaker 1: for murders in its history last year and is on

130
00:07:50,417 --> 00:07:54,217
Speaker 1: track to beat that record this year. This is what

131
00:07:54,297 --> 00:07:56,177
Speaker 1: happens when you say, let's just let a third of

132
00:07:56,217 --> 00:07:59,297
Speaker 1: all people that are incarcerated for serious crimes, let's just

133
00:07:59,377 --> 00:08:03,777
Speaker 1: let them out, find some excuse, find some bureaucratic rationale

134
00:08:04,417 --> 00:08:07,817
Speaker 1: to let them go free without paying their debt to society.

135
00:08:08,497 --> 00:08:11,057
Speaker 1: We are less safe as a result of this. This

136
00:08:11,137 --> 00:08:14,297
Speaker 1: is what is happening all over the country. Why aren't

137
00:08:14,297 --> 00:08:19,457
Speaker 1: all Republicans pointing out this didn't just occur. Democrats demanded this.

138
00:08:20,417 --> 00:08:23,537
Speaker 1: We got the policies the Democrats wanted, and it made

139
00:08:23,617 --> 00:08:29,017
Speaker 1: us all less safe. It made minorities less safe in

140
00:08:29,057 --> 00:08:32,177
Speaker 1: their communities, It made everybody less safe in all communities.

141
00:08:32,737 --> 00:08:36,697
Speaker 1: This is appalling. And then you think about the COVID

142
00:08:36,737 --> 00:08:42,537
Speaker 1: situation and the CDC which is now coming out and saying, yeah,

143
00:08:42,577 --> 00:08:47,697
Speaker 1: we made some mistakes. They didn't make some mistakes. The

144
00:08:47,777 --> 00:08:52,737
Speaker 1: CDC got everything wrong during COVID. The CDC did nothing

145
00:08:52,817 --> 00:08:56,097
Speaker 1: but make mistakes during COVID. They were wrong about masks,

146
00:08:56,097 --> 00:08:59,897
Speaker 1: wrong about ventilators, wrong about her immunity, wrong about vaccine efficacy,

147
00:08:59,937 --> 00:09:03,777
Speaker 1: wrong about social distancing, wrong about lockdowns. They were wrong

148
00:09:03,937 --> 00:09:08,337
Speaker 1: about literally every major decision of the pandemic, every single

149
00:09:08,377 --> 00:09:13,497
Speaker 1: one wrong, wrong, all wash your hands, that'll stop it.

150
00:09:14,257 --> 00:09:15,977
Speaker 1: Not saying you don't even hear that anymore because there's

151
00:09:16,017 --> 00:09:19,337
Speaker 1: nothing to do with washing your hands. It's moronic. But

152
00:09:19,977 --> 00:09:23,377
Speaker 1: now you've got Fauci going. You know, we're really brave

153
00:09:23,577 --> 00:09:28,257
Speaker 1: because we're willing to say that maybe there were a

154
00:09:28,337 --> 00:09:34,217
Speaker 1: few places where mistakes, theoretically in the aggregate of the

155
00:09:34,297 --> 00:09:38,297
Speaker 1: congregate setting may have been made. Here play this Fauci

156
00:09:38,377 --> 00:09:44,017
Speaker 1: clip realizing and recognizing the shortcomings that have been there

157
00:09:44,097 --> 00:09:48,897
Speaker 1: for quite a long time. Long anti dating doctor Wilenski's tenure,

158
00:09:49,137 --> 00:09:51,977
Speaker 1: and I think it was the stress and the challenge

159
00:09:52,457 --> 00:09:55,977
Speaker 1: of a historic pandemic that brought some of those deficiencies

160
00:09:55,977 --> 00:09:59,057
Speaker 1: into sharp relief. I believe we should commend them for

161
00:09:59,177 --> 00:10:02,697
Speaker 1: realizing that, particularly doctor Wilenski. There are very very good

162
00:10:02,737 --> 00:10:05,897
Speaker 1: people at the CDC. There was an issue with the

163
00:10:05,937 --> 00:10:10,497
Speaker 1: culture of how they approached their responsibility as a public

164
00:10:10,537 --> 00:10:14,177
Speaker 1: health agency that I think has now been recognized. So

165
00:10:14,257 --> 00:10:18,337
Speaker 1: I'm actually optimistic that, given the fact that the problems

166
00:10:18,337 --> 00:10:22,097
Speaker 1: have now been recognized, that there's a pathway to making

167
00:10:22,137 --> 00:10:26,057
Speaker 1: a very good organization much better. The problems have not

168
00:10:26,137 --> 00:10:30,697
Speaker 1: been recognized, not fully, not even close. They got everything wrong.

169
00:10:31,257 --> 00:10:35,417
Speaker 1: They became politicized democrat hacks. It's a disaster. They should

170
00:10:35,417 --> 00:10:39,817
Speaker 1: be ashamed, and every person in a leadership role in

171
00:10:39,897 --> 00:10:42,857
Speaker 1: public health during COVID at the CDC, the NIA should

172
00:10:42,897 --> 00:10:46,497
Speaker 1: be fired. That's step one. That's not even fixing at all,

173
00:10:46,537 --> 00:10:50,177
Speaker 1: that's step one. But Fauci wants to take a bow

174
00:10:50,257 --> 00:10:54,937
Speaker 1: because now that their last stronghold was Oh, but the

175
00:10:55,017 --> 00:10:58,057
Speaker 1: vaccines are so amazing, the vaccines will end the pandemic. Nope,

176
00:10:58,617 --> 00:11:01,497
Speaker 1: they were wrong about that too, And so here we

177
00:11:01,537 --> 00:11:06,177
Speaker 1: are notice all the people that during this pandemic, we're

178
00:11:06,217 --> 00:11:08,417
Speaker 1: reaching out to me to tell me horrible things. But

179
00:11:08,537 --> 00:11:10,817
Speaker 1: how awful I was, how wrong I None of them

180
00:11:10,817 --> 00:11:13,777
Speaker 1: reach out now to apologize and say I'm sorry, because

181
00:11:13,777 --> 00:11:19,977
Speaker 1: for them, it's just about collective delusion and just reaffirming

182
00:11:20,057 --> 00:11:23,697
Speaker 1: their biases. They'd rather just keep believing things that aren't

183
00:11:23,697 --> 00:11:26,657
Speaker 1: true than have to accept the realization they're not as

184
00:11:26,697 --> 00:11:28,577
Speaker 1: smart as they think they are and there are other

185
00:11:28,577 --> 00:11:32,217
Speaker 1: people that have better judgment, better knowledge than them. Yeah,

186
00:11:32,337 --> 00:11:36,657
Speaker 1: the Libs got the pandemic totally wrong. The Democrat Party

187
00:11:36,737 --> 00:11:40,857
Speaker 1: deserves to be crushed at the polls. On COVID alone.

188
00:11:41,097 --> 00:11:43,177
Speaker 1: You had crime into it, you had the border into it,

189
00:11:44,017 --> 00:11:46,297
Speaker 1: and that should be all, she wrote. But unfortunately, friends,

190
00:11:46,377 --> 00:11:49,857
Speaker 1: there's going to be some close races, and I'm not

191
00:11:49,897 --> 00:11:52,377
Speaker 1: sure we're going to take the Senate. So get mobilized,

192
00:11:52,417 --> 00:11:55,537
Speaker 1: get activated, get out there, spread the word. Have a

193
00:11:55,537 --> 00:11:57,857
Speaker 1: great weekend. Talk to you Monday, Shield Hie
