Speaker 1: you subscribe to the podcast on the iHeart Radio app
Speaker 1: or wherever you get your podcasts. Team. Welcome to the
Speaker 1: Freedom Hunt Friday, August nineteenth edition of the program. We've
Speaker 1: got a whole lot of crime stories and a Republican
Speaker 1: Party that is flailing right now to try to make
Speaker 1: sense of why their numbers are dropping. I got an
Speaker 1: idea talk about crime. I got an idea talk about
Speaker 1: the border. We'll get into that coming up here in
Speaker 1: just a second. Plus, the Morilago raid likely to fade
Speaker 1: the CDC, the worst three letter federal agency in existence.
Speaker 1: I'm discussing that in just a moment here. But have
Speaker 1: you ever heard the news of a data breach at Twitter?
Speaker 1: Because it happened eight months ago, but it affected more
Speaker 1: than five million users. According to reports, the phone numbers
Speaker 1: and email addresses of those Twitter accounts were placed for
Speaker 1: sale on the dark web. Twitter verified the bug, the
Speaker 1: yber thief used to access the data, and that it
Speaker 1: was fixed, but that stolen data is now for sale
Speaker 1: on the black market. This is a great example of
Speaker 1: how cyber thieves operate, first to data breach and then
Speaker 1: the sale of that data. Then your data is in
Speaker 1: the wrong hands without you knowing about it. It's important
Speaker 1: to understand how cybercrime and identity theft are affecting our lives.

Speaker 1: I got an idea just talking about inflation and start
Speaker 1: talking about things like the border which is wide open,
Speaker 1: which is the most lawless it has ever been because
Speaker 1: of Democrat policies and crime, which is a huge problem.
Speaker 1: Not just in big cities, It's a big problem in
Speaker 1: places all over the country. These days, pretty much the
Speaker 1: whole country is going through a surge in crime, and
Speaker 1: I think people need to talk about this a whole
Speaker 1: lot more. Here is, for example, last night on Hannity's
Speaker 1: show on Fox, Stephen Miller, formerly the Trump White House,
Speaker 1: saying that Republicans need to wake up and start talking
Speaker 1: to people about what matters in advance of this mid
Speaker 1: term or else they're going to forget and there will
Speaker 1: be no accountability. Play the clip. I was a congressional
Speaker 1: staffer for almost a decade. I went to all of
Speaker 1: these presentations. So what they do is they sit you
Speaker 1: down and they say, well, we ran a message and
Speaker 1: it says that controlling, wasteful Washington spending pulls at ninety
Speaker 1: five percent, to which I would say, you what else
Speaker 1: pulls it ninety five percent? I like cotton candy. I
Speaker 1: think airplanes are really neat and super cool, but I
Speaker 1: enjoy watching movies on Sunday. None of that gets anybody elected.
Speaker 1: What gets people elected is pushing messages where there's nowhere
Speaker 1: to hide. I'm for putting criminals behind bars. I'm for
Speaker 1: deporting legal aliens, and you're not so I wouldn't you lose?
Speaker 1: That's how you win election. Yes, he's right. The American
Speaker 1: people that we need to vote Republican care about the
Speaker 1: southern border, independent swing voters, the voters who are up
Speaker 1: for grabs, care about the issue of crime. I mean,
Speaker 1: just in the last twenty four hours or so, you
Speaker 1: take a look at what has been what has been reported.
Speaker 1: I mean you had the NYPD released a video of
Speaker 1: five teenagers, including three girls girls, female teenagers, who stomped
Speaker 1: and pounded a cab driver to death on video. Guy's married,
Speaker 1: he's got children. Now he's dead because they skipped out
Speaker 1: on a fair and he chased after them. They beat
Speaker 1: him to death with their bare hands. Do you think
Speaker 1: any of those teenagers are going to spend a lot
Speaker 1: of time in prison for that, No guarantee they won't.
Speaker 1: They'll go to some juvenile facility for a little while,
Speaker 1: they'll be released, and then there'll be some left wing
Speaker 1: legal organization. They're trying to get it expunged entirely from
Speaker 1: their records so that it doesn't stop hurt their job prospects.
Speaker 1: Murderer guy, murder guy, another individual who you've probably seen,
Speaker 1: who just punched out of nowhere, just blindsided punched somebody
Speaker 1: and almost killed the guy, put him in a coma.
Speaker 1: Nothing in terms of major charges against him. And he's
Speaker 1: somebody who also has a sexual a sexual assault past.
Speaker 1: So you know, you wonder what is it going to take,
Speaker 1: What is it gonna take for people to realize the
Speaker 1: libs are crazy folks. They're just letting people out of
Speaker 1: prison who do really bad things. They're letting criminals free
Speaker 1: who are bad people who need to be punished. I mean,
Speaker 1: this is a convicted sex offender who cold cocked a
Speaker 1: guy on a Bronx street, leaving him in a coma
Speaker 1: with brain injuries. This just happened on This happened a
Speaker 1: few days ago, and this guy, Bui van Fu, he
Speaker 1: was charged by the Bronx District Attorney's office with assault
Speaker 1: and harassment, which are misdemeanors. The victim requires brain surgery.
Speaker 1: This guy got charged with misdemeanors. Already already released, already released,
Speaker 1: these psycho libs who think the world is going to
Speaker 1: end because of CO two and climate change. Also, somehow
Speaker 1: think that holding violent criminals accountable is bad, probably racist.
Speaker 1: Usually that's what they say. It's just racist, enforcing the
Speaker 1: law racist. And you say, well, wait, what, who's involved
Speaker 1: and why is it raised? They don't care. They just
Speaker 1: call it racist. There's so many of these of these incidents.
Speaker 1: San Francisco, Cleveland, and Portland's downtowns are the most deserted
Speaker 1: in the country. A number of other cities, including New Orleans,
Speaker 1: deserted downtowns too. You know why crime, Why is crime
Speaker 1: up so high in these places? Because Democrats decided that
Speaker 1: that's what needs to happen to make our society function better,
Speaker 1: We need to empty out the prisons. In fact, here
Speaker 1: we got John Fetterman, who's running for Senate in Pennsylvania
Speaker 1: right now, has in the polls a pretty big lead
Speaker 1: over doctor Oz, which is just I don't know. I
Speaker 1: cannot imagine being so foolish and having such poor judgment
Speaker 1: that thinking this guy Fetterman is a good option for
Speaker 1: the state of Pennsylvania. But there are people that's what
Speaker 1: they think. Here he is saying that he agrees this
Speaker 1: is a couple of years ago, did he agree with
Speaker 1: emptying out prisons in Pennsylvania play that club. I was
Speaker 1: on a panel with Secretary Wetzel earlier before the pandemic hit,
Speaker 1: and he said something remarkable that I agree with. He said,
Speaker 1: we could reduce our prison population by a third and
Speaker 1: not make anyone less safe in Pennsylvania. And that's a
Speaker 1: profound statement, a profoundly stupid statement that has been proven wrong.
Speaker 1: Prisons have released lots and lots of inmates in Pennsylvania.
Speaker 1: I think in the pensyl in the Philadelphia area it's
Speaker 1: down about thirty percent. Philadelphia had its worst year ever
Speaker 1: for murders in its history last year and is on
Speaker 1: track to beat that record this year. This is what
Speaker 1: happens when you say, let's just let a third of
Speaker 1: all people that are incarcerated for serious crimes, let's just
Speaker 1: let them out, find some excuse, find some bureaucratic rationale
Speaker 1: to let them go free without paying their debt to society.
Speaker 1: We are less safe as a result of this. This
Speaker 1: is what is happening all over the country. Why aren't
Speaker 1: all Republicans pointing out this didn't just occur. Democrats demanded this.
Speaker 1: We got the policies the Democrats wanted, and it made
Speaker 1: us all less safe. It made minorities less safe in
Speaker 1: their communities, It made everybody less safe in all communities.
Speaker 1: This is appalling. And then you think about the COVID
Speaker 1: situation and the CDC which is now coming out and saying, yeah,
Speaker 1: we made some mistakes. They didn't make some mistakes. The
Speaker 1: CDC got everything wrong during COVID. The CDC did nothing
Speaker 1: but make mistakes during COVID. They were wrong about masks,
Speaker 1: wrong about ventilators, wrong about her immunity, wrong about vaccine efficacy,
Speaker 1: wrong about social distancing, wrong about lockdowns. They were wrong
Speaker 1: about literally every major decision of the pandemic, every single
Speaker 1: one wrong, wrong, all wash your hands, that'll stop it.
Speaker 1: Not saying you don't even hear that anymore because there's
Speaker 1: nothing to do with washing your hands. It's moronic. But
Speaker 1: now you've got Fauci going. You know, we're really brave
Speaker 1: because we're willing to say that maybe there were a
Speaker 1: few places where mistakes, theoretically in the aggregate of the
Speaker 1: congregate setting may have been made. Here play this Fauci
Speaker 1: clip realizing and recognizing the shortcomings that have been there
Speaker 1: for quite a long time. Long anti dating doctor Wilenski's tenure,
Speaker 1: and I think it was the stress and the challenge
Speaker 1: of a historic pandemic that brought some of those deficiencies
Speaker 1: into sharp relief. I believe we should commend them for
Speaker 1: realizing that, particularly doctor Wilenski. There are very very good
Speaker 1: people at the CDC. There was an issue with the
Speaker 1: culture of how they approached their responsibility as a public
Speaker 1: health agency that I think has now been recognized. So
Speaker 1: I'm actually optimistic that, given the fact that the problems
Speaker 1: have now been recognized, that there's a pathway to making
Speaker 1: a very good organization much better. The problems have not
Speaker 1: been recognized, not fully, not even close. They got everything wrong.
Speaker 1: They became politicized democrat hacks. It's a disaster. They should
Speaker 1: be ashamed, and every person in a leadership role in
Speaker 1: public health during COVID at the CDC, the NIA should
Speaker 1: be fired. That's step one. That's not even fixing at all,
Speaker 1: that's step one. But Fauci wants to take a bow
Speaker 1: because now that their last stronghold was Oh, but the
Speaker 1: vaccines are so amazing, the vaccines will end the pandemic. Nope,
Speaker 1: they were wrong about that too, And so here we
Speaker 1: are notice all the people that during this pandemic, we're
Speaker 1: reaching out to me to tell me horrible things. But
Speaker 1: how awful I was, how wrong I None of them
Speaker 1: reach out now to apologize and say I'm sorry, because
Speaker 1: for them, it's just about collective delusion and just reaffirming
Speaker 1: their biases. They'd rather just keep believing things that aren't
Speaker 1: true than have to accept the realization they're not as
Speaker 1: smart as they think they are and there are other
Speaker 1: people that have better judgment, better knowledge than them. Yeah,
Speaker 1: the Libs got the pandemic totally wrong. The Democrat Party
Speaker 1: deserves to be crushed at the polls. On COVID alone.
Speaker 1: You had crime into it, you had the border into it,
Speaker 1: and that should be all, she wrote. But unfortunately, friends,
Speaker 1: there's going to be some close races, and I'm not
Speaker 1: sure we're going to take the Senate. So get mobilized,
Speaker 1: get activated, get out there, spread the word. Have a
Speaker 1: great weekend. Talk to you Monday, Shield Hie
