Thinks 128 00:06:30,400 --> 00:06:35,520 Speaker 7: that pardoning Hunter, I think Brian. 129 00:06:35,360 --> 00:06:37,360 Speaker 3: Might not be able to hear us well. To your point, Michelle, 130 00:06:37,360 --> 00:06:39,239 Speaker 3: I think you're right. They've got to keep the Biden 131 00:06:39,320 --> 00:06:41,599 Speaker 3: family cash cow flowing, and the only way to do 132 00:06:41,640 --> 00:06:44,160 Speaker 3: that is to pardon their entire family. So they have absolute, 133 00:06:44,640 --> 00:06:46,960 Speaker 3: you know, complete carte blanche to do whatever they want 134 00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:49,040 Speaker 3: to do moving forward, because if you pardon them, then 135 00:06:49,080 --> 00:06:50,400 Speaker 3: they can do it pretty much for whatever they want 136 00:06:50,400 --> 00:06:50,760 Speaker 3: to keep. 137 00:06:50,640 --> 00:06:51,320 Speaker 5: The cash cow going. 138 00:06:51,440 --> 00:06:53,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, and you have to consider Hunter is wheeling and 139 00:06:53,920 --> 00:06:55,120 Speaker 1: dealing on behalf of Joe. 140 00:06:55,279 --> 00:06:56,600 Speaker 7: You know, we call him the big guy. 141 00:06:57,279 --> 00:06:58,400 Speaker 5: Get Brian back now, I hope. 142 00:06:58,440 --> 00:06:59,760 Speaker 7: Do we have Brian with us? 143 00:07:00,120 --> 00:07:00,320 Speaker 9: Yeah? 144 00:07:00,440 --> 00:07:01,400 Speaker 5: Okay, yeah, Ron. 145 00:07:01,560 --> 00:07:05,080 Speaker 7: We are saying that Hunter and the Biden family need 146 00:07:05,120 --> 00:07:06,880 Speaker 7: to keep the money flowing in and I think that. 147 00:07:06,920 --> 00:07:08,920 Speaker 1: Was a big motivation here because they're about to enter 148 00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:10,160 Speaker 1: back into the private sector. 149 00:07:11,200 --> 00:07:14,440 Speaker 6: And also that's why this Africa thing kind of throws 150 00:07:14,480 --> 00:07:16,960 Speaker 6: some red flags for me. It's all going not all, 151 00:07:17,120 --> 00:07:20,200 Speaker 6: but I expect some going to NGOs which will end 152 00:07:20,360 --> 00:07:24,040 Speaker 6: up in Democrat pockets for this next election. They're just 153 00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:28,240 Speaker 6: money laundering it in a way to these foreign countries 154 00:07:28,240 --> 00:07:31,760 Speaker 6: that have organizations set up to bring that money back 155 00:07:31,920 --> 00:07:35,560 Speaker 6: to Democrats in the next election. It's bad business. It's 156 00:07:35,600 --> 00:07:38,480 Speaker 6: the way of politics. Unfortunately, that's the way it goes. 157 00:07:38,800 --> 00:07:42,640 Speaker 6: But this is just just stinks all over. But once again, 158 00:07:43,320 --> 00:07:46,320 Speaker 6: this is why they lost the election. They keep focusing 159 00:07:46,360 --> 00:07:51,360 Speaker 6: on every single other country except ours. Remind you they've 160 00:07:51,440 --> 00:07:55,600 Speaker 6: blown through eighty percent of fifty five billion dollars pledged 161 00:07:55,640 --> 00:07:58,880 Speaker 6: to Africa back just two years ago. How many more 162 00:07:58,880 --> 00:08:01,960 Speaker 6: billions are we going to give these foreign countries? Meanwhile, 163 00:08:02,920 --> 00:08:05,280 Speaker 6: Americans are freezing out in North Carolina. 164 00:08:05,960 --> 00:08:08,080 Speaker 7: Amen. Meanwhile, I want to switch gears here. 165 00:08:08,240 --> 00:08:12,200 Speaker 1: Meta boss Mark Zuckerberg has been spotted quite often at 166 00:08:12,320 --> 00:08:15,440 Speaker 1: Meri Lago here.

Let's go by the numbers real quickly. 174 00:08:35,280 --> 00:08:38,920 Speaker 6: Back in twenty twenty, Mark Zuckerberg pumped in over four 175 00:08:39,520 --> 00:08:44,520 Speaker 6: hundred million dollars into Democrat cities to get out the vote. 176 00:08:44,640 --> 00:08:48,400 Speaker 6: He's the same guy that not only deplatformed millions of 177 00:08:48,440 --> 00:08:50,520 Speaker 6: Americans but throttled. 178 00:08:50,200 --> 00:08:52,040 Speaker 5: In shadow band people like me. 179 00:08:52,280 --> 00:08:56,760 Speaker 6: I am currently Facebook live streaming our broadcast and I 180 00:08:56,880 --> 00:08:59,760 Speaker 6: have a whopping still waiting for someone to come on 181 00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:02,400 Speaker 6: right now, and I'm a couple of minutes into it. 182 00:09:02,559 --> 00:09:06,000 Speaker 5: I'm serious. Nobody is douned in. Yet he has shadow. 183 00:09:05,679 --> 00:09:10,560 Speaker 6: Banned more conservatives, he has deplatformed more conservatives. He even 184 00:09:10,679 --> 00:09:14,840 Speaker 6: deplatformed President Trump. So this is the same guy that 185 00:09:14,960 --> 00:09:17,280 Speaker 6: all of a sudden wants to come tomorrow a Lago, which, 186 00:09:17,520 --> 00:09:20,440 Speaker 6: in all due respect, I'm glad President Trump took a 187 00:09:20,480 --> 00:09:21,079 Speaker 6: meeting with him. 188 00:09:21,120 --> 00:09:23,240 Speaker 5: I'm glad he had him down tomorrow Alago. 189 00:09:23,559 --> 00:09:24,880 Speaker 9: But I have no. 190 00:09:26,920 --> 00:09:30,480 Speaker 6: Desire to get in bed with Mark Zuckerberg on any 191 00:09:30,600 --> 00:09:35,040 Speaker 6: tech policy. He's the same guy that has deplatformed small 192 00:09:35,240 --> 00:09:39,080 Speaker 6: businesses after the election. Remember, if he talked about I 193 00:09:39,160 --> 00:09:41,720 Speaker 6: remact him, boom, you were gone. If he talked about 194 00:09:41,760 --> 00:09:46,080 Speaker 6: election front, boom, you were gone. If you talked about Trump, boom, 195 00:09:46,240 --> 00:09:49,560 Speaker 6: you were gone. Now he wants to have dinner with Trump, 196 00:09:49,760 --> 00:09:52,080 Speaker 6: I don't think so. By the way, I finally have 197 00:09:52,280 --> 00:09:54,360 Speaker 6: one person watching on. 198 00:09:55,840 --> 00:09:55,880 Speaker 1: Me. 199 00:09:56,400 --> 00:09:59,480 Speaker 5: I'm hoping that it is Hello, but have you on there? 200 00:09:59,559 --> 00:10:02,559 Speaker 5: But no, just play Devil's Avkan for a second. 201 00:10:02,559 --> 00:10:05,120 Speaker 3: If he brings them into the fold, is the saying goes, 202 00:10:05,160 --> 00:10:06,880 Speaker 3: you know, the enemy of my enemy is my friend. 203 00:10:07,160 --> 00:10:10,360 Speaker 5: Do you bring a Mark zucker bugging burging close. 204 00:10:10,320 --> 00:10:13,240 Speaker 3: So that you can say, hey, okay, now our eyes 205 00:10:13,240 --> 00:10:16,760 Speaker 3: are on you. You're no longer the sole proprietor of information. 206 00:10:17,040 --> 00:10:18,440 Speaker 5: This was the podcast election. 207 00:10:18,640 --> 00:10:20,760 Speaker 3: We're going to give a lot of people access so 208 00:10:20,800 --> 00:10:22,560 Speaker 3: that everyone can get the proper information. 209 00:10:22,640 --> 00:10:24,360 Speaker 5: So Mark rather than keeping you at bay. 210 00:10:24,640 --> 00:10:26,360 Speaker 3: Let's keep an eye on you and make sure you're 211 00:10:26,400 --> 00:10:27,920 Speaker 3: doing the right thing and not shadow banning. 212 00:10:27,920 --> 00:10:31,920 Speaker 6: Brian Glynn, Well, maybe you're right, because I think they 213 00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:36,120 Speaker 6: realized that all that shadow banning, all that censorship didn't work. 214 00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:36,520 Speaker 5: Up for him. 215 00:10:36,640 --> 00:10:41,120 Speaker 6: Nobody trusts social media. Nobody trust any of those mainstream media, 216 00:10:41,160 --> 00:10:43,520 Speaker 6: and no one trusts Twitter for the most part. There's 217 00:10:43,559 --> 00:10:46,280 Speaker 6: a lot of Twitter accounts that still pump out misinformation. 218 00:10:46,800 --> 00:10:49,480 Speaker 6: But you might have a point there, Bo, Maybe we 219 00:10:49,600 --> 00:10:52,160 Speaker 6: keep them close. We keep our eyes on Mark Zuckerberg 220 00:10:52,679 --> 00:10:55,400 Speaker 6: and Instagram. Let's not forget Instagram. I mean, I've got 221 00:10:55,559 --> 00:10:57,640 Speaker 6: I could probably get hey, by the way, I've got 222 00:10:57,640 --> 00:10:58,800 Speaker 6: three people watching me right now. 223 00:10:58,840 --> 00:11:00,959 Speaker 7: All right, We're I gets it up here. 224 00:11:01,720 --> 00:11:03,720 Speaker 6: I'm guess I'm out of the shadow band. But you know, 225 00:11:04,240 --> 00:11:06,400 Speaker 6: that might be a great point. Let's just keep him close. 226 00:11:06,640 --> 00:11:10,160 Speaker 6: But listen, let's not forget this is the same guy 227 00:11:10,600 --> 00:11:13,520 Speaker 6: that really put his money where his mouth was back 228 00:11:13,520 --> 00:11:17,640 Speaker 6: in twenty twenty and stopped the Republican movement in many states. 229 00:11:18,160 --> 00:11:21,000 Speaker 6: Michigan was one of the heaviest states that he invested 230 00:11:21,040 --> 00:11:23,400 Speaker 6: in during the twenty twenty election. And I don't think 231 00:11:23,400 --> 00:11:25,160 Speaker 6: we need to forget that at all. He tried to 232 00:11:25,200 --> 00:11:29,360 Speaker 6: beat us. Well, they essentially accomplished it real quick yes 233 00:11:29,440 --> 00:11:29,559 Speaker 6: or no? 234 00:11:29,679 --> 00:11:33,600 Speaker 7: Do you think that Zuckerberg will actually have a role. No, 235 00:11:34,040 --> 00:11:35,320 Speaker 7: I don't think so either both. 236 00:11:35,559 --> 00:11:37,080 Speaker 5: I think you're right. I just would like to see 237 00:11:37,120 --> 00:11:37,959 Speaker 5: him eyes on. 238 00:11:37,960 --> 00:11:40,120 Speaker 7: Him, all right, bre you know what, real quickly. 239 00:11:40,360 --> 00:11:42,640 Speaker 6: Maybe he sees Elawn must down there, he figures it's 240 00:11:42,679 --> 00:11:45,560 Speaker 6: his duty as a tech billionaire to do it, to come. 241 00:11:45,440 --> 00:11:47,199 Speaker 5: Down there as well. So maybe he was just trying 242 00:11:47,200 --> 00:11:48,680 Speaker 5: to do what Elon was doing. 243 00:11:48,840 --> 00:11:49,439 Speaker 7: That's valipoint. 244 00:11:49,480 --> 00:11:51,839 Speaker 1: Brian Glenn, thank you so much for being with us, 245 00:11:51,880 --> 00:11:55,559 Speaker 1: and thanks to all the followers as well on Facebook watching. 246 00:11:55,200 --> 00:11:58,040 Speaker 7: From Brian Glenn's accounts. We'll be right back. 247 00:12:11,040 --> 00:12:12,720 Speaker 4: Welcome back to Special Reports. 248 00:12:12,880 --> 00:12:16,000 Speaker 2: Another caravan is heading toward the southern border from Mexico, 249 00:12:16,120 --> 00:12:19,480 Speaker 2: hoping to reach the US before President Trump takes office. 250 00:12:19,640 --> 00:12:22,040 Speaker 4: Let's bring in our co host Tara Doll for discussion. 251 00:12:22,400 --> 00:12:25,439 Speaker 2: Tara, will this caravan actually make it to the United States? 252 00:12:25,960 --> 00:12:28,680 Speaker 10: Well, it's on its way, but we've seen over the weekend, 253 00:12:28,920 --> 00:12:31,480 Speaker 10: you've had the Mexican president working with the law enforcement 254 00:12:31,520 --> 00:12:35,760 Speaker 10: there in Mexico. They have broken up over two caravans 255 00:12:35,880 --> 00:12:38,480 Speaker 10: after she spoke with President elect Trump and said that 256 00:12:38,559 --> 00:12:40,840 Speaker 10: she was going to Mexico would help them stop these 257 00:12:40,840 --> 00:12:43,600 Speaker 10: caravans and help us secure the border. So we'll see 258 00:12:43,600 --> 00:12:45,960 Speaker 10: if this one. The Mexican authorities will probably end up 259 00:12:45,960 --> 00:12:48,840 Speaker 10: breaking it up before it reaches there in the mass 260 00:12:48,840 --> 00:12:51,679 Speaker 10: of the fifteen hundred people, but the people will ultimately 261 00:12:52,400 --> 00:12:54,440 Speaker 10: probably cross the border at different points. 262 00:12:54,480 --> 00:12:56,320 Speaker 4: I think yeah, I think that probably makes sense. 263 00:12:56,360 --> 00:12:56,600 Speaker 5: Tara. 264 00:12:56,720 --> 00:12:58,160 Speaker 4: Now, something I want to ask you about. 265 00:12:58,160 --> 00:13:01,240 Speaker 2: The cartels have been really adjusting their strategy since President 266 00:13:01,280 --> 00:13:03,800 Speaker 2: Trump got elected. He's vowed to shut down the border. 267 00:13:03,840 --> 00:13:06,439 Speaker 2: Can you walk us through what these new strategies have been. 268 00:13:06,800 --> 00:13:08,240 Speaker 10: Well, that's what you're looking at these cars. 269 00:13:08,360 --> 00:13:09,400 Speaker 4: The caravan is now. 270 00:13:09,440 --> 00:13:11,560 Speaker 10: So you've seen these two caravans that have broken up 271 00:13:11,559 --> 00:13:14,400 Speaker 10: by the Mexican authorities. So the cartels know now that 272 00:13:14,480 --> 00:13:17,320 Speaker 10: President elect Trump is coming in and so now they 273 00:13:17,320 --> 00:13:19,760 Speaker 10: aren't going to be making as much money as they 274 00:13:19,760 --> 00:13:22,319 Speaker 10: have been, of course, because they have been profiting billions 275 00:13:22,320 --> 00:13:25,520 Speaker 10: and billions and billions of dollars under the Biden Harris administration, 276 00:13:25,840 --> 00:13:30,040 Speaker 10: whether that's human trafficking, human smuggling, drug trafficking, they have 277 00:13:30,160 --> 00:13:32,600 Speaker 10: been profiting and so they know now that the President 278 00:13:32,679 --> 00:13:35,000 Speaker 10: Trump is not only going to secure the border, he's 279 00:13:35,040 --> 00:13:37,200 Speaker 10: also going to be coming after the cartels. So this 280 00:13:37,320 --> 00:13:39,800 Speaker 10: is basically their last stand. So they have to adjust 281 00:13:39,800 --> 00:13:42,040 Speaker 10: in their strategies. And what they're basically doing now is 282 00:13:42,040 --> 00:13:45,240 Speaker 10: when you look at this fifteen hundred person caravan that's 283 00:13:45,280 --> 00:13:47,880 Speaker 10: coming in, what they're doing now is they're breaking it up. 284 00:13:47,920 --> 00:13:49,920 Speaker 4: So instead of doing mass. 285 00:13:49,640 --> 00:13:52,760 Speaker 10: Groups, they're doing a one hundred people here, one hundred people here. 286 00:13:52,880 --> 00:13:55,280 Speaker 10: They're going to cross at different points, but they're going 287 00:13:55,360 --> 00:13:58,120 Speaker 10: to be smaller groups of people, so they will get 288 00:13:58,160 --> 00:14:01,360 Speaker 10: in at some point because they'll just break down these caravans. 289 00:14:01,679 --> 00:14:03,960 Speaker 10: But they are going to have to adjust, and ultimately 290 00:14:04,000 --> 00:14:05,840 Speaker 10: President Trump is going to shut him down when he 291 00:14:05,840 --> 00:14:07,920 Speaker 10: comes into office. So they're at a point now that 292 00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:10,760 Speaker 10: they won't be profiting the billions and billions of dollars 293 00:14:10,760 --> 00:14:12,520 Speaker 10: like they have in the United States. But they're not 294 00:14:12,600 --> 00:14:15,000 Speaker 10: just in the United States. They're global. They're in over 295 00:14:15,080 --> 00:14:18,480 Speaker 10: like fifty countries globally, so they will be able to 296 00:14:18,480 --> 00:14:21,600 Speaker 10: profit in other ways. But they definitely are adjusting due 297 00:14:21,720 --> 00:14:22,760 Speaker 10: to the Trump effect. 298 00:14:23,000 --> 00:14:26,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, absolutely, my gosh. I mean, these border cities along 299 00:14:26,960 --> 00:14:27,640 Speaker 2: the southern border. 300 00:14:27,720 --> 00:14:29,080 Speaker 4: It seems like that's going to be a really big 301 00:14:29,120 --> 00:14:29,640 Speaker 4: threat to them. 302 00:14:29,640 --> 00:14:32,240 Speaker 2: But we know that this carries into the sanctuary cities 303 00:14:32,240 --> 00:14:34,760 Speaker 2: throughout the US as well. In New York City, they're 304 00:14:34,760 --> 00:14:38,400 Speaker 2: closing emergency migrant shelters due to less people arriving, and 305 00:14:38,560 --> 00:14:41,440 Speaker 2: New York City Mayor Eric Adams came out today saying 306 00:14:41,440 --> 00:14:43,720 Speaker 2: that he's willing to work with President elect Trump and 307 00:14:43,840 --> 00:14:47,040 Speaker 2: Borders are Tom Homan and addressing the migrant crisis. 308 00:14:47,200 --> 00:14:48,440 Speaker 4: Take a look at what he had to say. 309 00:14:50,480 --> 00:14:52,360 Speaker 11: I want to sit down and hit a plan on 310 00:14:52,400 --> 00:14:53,720 Speaker 11: how we're going to address them. 311 00:14:54,120 --> 00:14:55,520 Speaker 5: Those are the people I am. 312 00:14:55,520 --> 00:14:57,880 Speaker 11: Talking about, and I would love to sit down with 313 00:14:57,960 --> 00:15:01,920 Speaker 11: the bordersaw and here his thoughts on how we're going 314 00:15:01,920 --> 00:15:04,320 Speaker 11: to address those who are harming our citizens. 315 00:15:04,520 --> 00:15:07,640 Speaker 5: You row in to that open to. 316 00:15:07,480 --> 00:15:11,440 Speaker 2: Hearing what their plan is to deport some of these folks, 317 00:15:11,480 --> 00:15:14,960 Speaker 2: and you think the city in some circumstances should cooperate 318 00:15:15,040 --> 00:15:15,560 Speaker 2: with us. 319 00:15:15,840 --> 00:15:17,960 Speaker 11: Let me let me you know what's interesting. And I 320 00:15:18,000 --> 00:15:19,880 Speaker 11: was talking to the team the other day. I want 321 00:15:19,920 --> 00:15:26,120 Speaker 11: you to all go back and google Hillary Clinton and 322 00:15:26,160 --> 00:15:30,200 Speaker 11: Barack Obama. Google what they said about those who commit 323 00:15:30,280 --> 00:15:33,960 Speaker 11: crimes in our city and what they said in our country, 324 00:15:34,560 --> 00:15:38,320 Speaker 11: they said those who commit crimes need to get out 325 00:15:38,400 --> 00:15:41,560 Speaker 11: right away. That was their position. So this is not 326 00:15:41,640 --> 00:15:45,000 Speaker 11: a new position, you know because in the state of 327 00:15:45,760 --> 00:15:50,600 Speaker 11: the in the era of cancel culture, no one's afraid 328 00:15:50,640 --> 00:15:54,640 Speaker 11: to be honest about the truth.

But 351 00:16:42,960 --> 00:16:45,200 Speaker 10: it's really great to see him do this. And I 352 00:16:45,200 --> 00:16:47,400 Speaker 10: know Tom Holman and him are having a meeting suent too, 353 00:16:47,400 --> 00:16:48,800 Speaker 10: and they're going to be talking about how they can 354 00:16:48,840 --> 00:16:49,560 Speaker 10: work together on this. 355 00:16:49,600 --> 00:16:51,160 Speaker 2: Emily No, It's going to be interesting to see what 356 00:16:51,200 --> 00:16:52,880 Speaker 2: comes of that meeting. I mean, the people in the 357 00:16:52,880 --> 00:16:54,840 Speaker 2: Big Apple are just fed up. I mean, this is 358 00:16:54,880 --> 00:16:57,920 Speaker 2: the only response at this point for the mayor there. 359 00:16:57,960 --> 00:16:59,120 Speaker 4: But I want to get your take on this. 360 00:16:59,400 --> 00:17:01,280 Speaker 2: The New York Co was published a piece on the 361 00:17:01,400 --> 00:17:04,280 Speaker 2: number of illegals in New York City that are convicted 362 00:17:04,320 --> 00:17:07,280 Speaker 2: felons or facing criminal charges. And that number is that 363 00:17:07,400 --> 00:17:10,439 Speaker 2: a shocking fifty eight thousand. This is just a New 364 00:17:10,520 --> 00:17:13,040 Speaker 2: York City alone, and as close to six hundred and 365 00:17:13,040 --> 00:17:16,359 Speaker 2: seventy thousand across the country. So there are fifty eight 366 00:17:16,359 --> 00:17:18,480 Speaker 2: thousand illegals in New York City alone that were either 367 00:17:18,520 --> 00:17:21,560 Speaker 2: previously convicted of crimes or have criminal charges pending, and 368 00:17:21,600 --> 00:17:25,040 Speaker 2: a thousand are suspected of known gang members. Tara, I mean, 369 00:17:25,040 --> 00:17:26,920 Speaker 2: this is extremely concerning. 370 00:17:27,240 --> 00:17:32,000 Speaker 10: Was six hundred and seventy thousand convicted criminals roaming our streets, 371 00:17:32,119 --> 00:17:34,800 Speaker 10: staying in our neighborhood, flying on our plates, you. 372 00:17:34,760 --> 00:17:36,160 Speaker 4: Know, going to our schools. 373 00:17:36,280 --> 00:17:38,280 Speaker 10: Just think of that, and think of the just the 374 00:17:38,920 --> 00:17:41,399 Speaker 10: crimes that are being committed. I mean, there's just a 375 00:17:41,400 --> 00:17:43,879 Speaker 10: crime that I was reading about. Emily. In New York City, 376 00:17:44,119 --> 00:17:47,600 Speaker 10: we had this teenager, this group of migrants that. 377 00:17:47,600 --> 00:17:50,880 Speaker 4: Had the masks on, and they just asked someone. 378 00:17:50,760 --> 00:17:52,720 Speaker 10: That was just passing by if they would take a 379 00:17:52,720 --> 00:17:54,960 Speaker 10: photo of them, and the guy said no, he didn't 380 00:17:54,960 --> 00:17:56,720 Speaker 10: want to take a photo, probably because the guys, the 381 00:17:56,760 --> 00:17:59,840 Speaker 10: migrants had face masks on and you know, we're scary looking, 382 00:18:00,359 --> 00:18:03,399 Speaker 10: and so they ended up punching him with knuckles on 383 00:18:03,920 --> 00:18:06,280 Speaker 10: and beating him up for not taking a photo. But 384 00:18:06,320 --> 00:18:08,399 Speaker 10: this is the kind of stuff you do, what is 385 00:18:08,440 --> 00:18:09,679 Speaker 10: taking place on our streets. 386 00:18:09,720 --> 00:18:10,520 Speaker 7: You don't feel safe. 387 00:18:10,560 --> 00:18:11,320 Speaker 4: I don't feel. 388 00:18:11,119 --> 00:18:13,399 Speaker 10: Safe going out for a walk anymore. I don't feel 389 00:18:13,400 --> 00:18:15,800 Speaker 10: safe being in places that I'm not aware of. It 390 00:18:15,880 --> 00:18:18,880 Speaker 10: is not the same America anymore. And that is why 391 00:18:18,920 --> 00:18:21,720 Speaker 10: it is so important. I can't understand why these Democrat mayors, 392 00:18:21,720 --> 00:18:25,520 Speaker 10: thesement governors are refusing to allow Ice to come in, 393 00:18:25,600 --> 00:18:28,800 Speaker 10: because these are the people, these six hundred and seventy 394 00:18:28,920 --> 00:18:33,159 Speaker 10: thousand criminals that Tom Holman and Ice are going to remove. 395 00:18:33,359 --> 00:18:35,080 Speaker 10: These are the ones that they're going to start with. 396 00:18:35,119 --> 00:18:37,840 Speaker 10: He's been very clear that he's going after the national 397 00:18:37,880 --> 00:18:41,399 Speaker 10: security threat first, the public safety threats first. So the 398 00:18:41,600 --> 00:18:48,000 Speaker 10: Democrat officials have absolutely no reason, no justification at all 399 00:18:48,280 --> 00:18:50,400 Speaker 10: for not wanting to get these kind of people off 400 00:18:50,400 --> 00:18:52,920 Speaker 10: their streets and do the job that they were elected 401 00:18:52,920 --> 00:18:55,400 Speaker 10: to do and protect the citizens of their areas. 402 00:18:55,480 --> 00:18:56,240 Speaker 4: Absolutely, Tara. 403 00:18:56,280 --> 00:18:58,199 Speaker 2: It makes me think of Lake and Riley and what 404 00:18:58,320 --> 00:19:00,400 Speaker 2: happened to her, and that illegal immigrant was a member 405 00:19:00,400 --> 00:19:02,359 Speaker 2: of Trendea Ragua, of that gang. 406 00:19:02,400 --> 00:19:04,480 Speaker 4: I mean, we're seeing this happen all over the country, and. 407 00:19:04,440 --> 00:19:07,000 Speaker 2: It's like we talked about, refreshing to see these Democrat 408 00:19:07,000 --> 00:19:09,639 Speaker 2: officials actually stepping up and trying to address this and 409 00:19:09,680 --> 00:19:12,320 Speaker 2: trying to work with Tom Holman with President Trump to 410 00:19:12,359 --> 00:19:15,439 Speaker 2: address these border concerns.

For more, let's bring in former 430 00:20:32,880 --> 00:20:36,240 Speaker 2: FBI Special Agent Jonathan Gilliam. Jonathan, thank you so much 431 00:20:36,280 --> 00:20:37,280 Speaker 2: for being with us today. 432 00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:38,720 Speaker 9: Good to be with you. 433 00:20:39,119 --> 00:20:41,560 Speaker 2: So what was your initial reaction to the Cash nomination. 434 00:20:42,960 --> 00:20:45,639 Speaker 12: Well, it's interesting, you know, I know that he's loyal 435 00:20:45,680 --> 00:20:48,840 Speaker 12: to Trump. I know that he's capable of I mean, 436 00:20:48,880 --> 00:20:52,000 Speaker 12: he's shown that he's capable of understanding what's going on. 437 00:20:52,800 --> 00:20:55,879 Speaker 12: That's a huge thing for somebody who would be in 438 00:20:55,920 --> 00:21:00,000 Speaker 12: that position, understanding what the left is, how the governm 439 00:21:00,200 --> 00:21:04,760 Speaker 12: has been used in law fair My issue I have 440 00:21:05,000 --> 00:21:08,879 Speaker 12: with Cash is not Cash. I mean, he's a qualified attorney, 441 00:21:09,200 --> 00:21:11,280 Speaker 12: but he wasn't a special agent in the Bureau. And 442 00:21:11,440 --> 00:21:14,320 Speaker 12: I think what we've seen in all of these agencies 443 00:21:14,440 --> 00:21:19,040 Speaker 12: is that political appointees, besides the left, political appointees have 444 00:21:19,080 --> 00:21:21,600 Speaker 12: been the biggest problem that we've had in these agencies 445 00:21:21,880 --> 00:21:26,159 Speaker 12: because they've never been in the agency. They don't understand 446 00:21:26,520 --> 00:21:31,000 Speaker 12: fully how the agency runs and the intricacies within it 447 00:21:31,040 --> 00:21:34,479 Speaker 12: that caused the majority of the problems. And the problems 448 00:21:34,480 --> 00:21:37,760 Speaker 12: with the Bureau goes far beyond just the left and 449 00:21:37,800 --> 00:21:40,800 Speaker 12: the leftists and the activists that are in there. There's 450 00:21:40,880 --> 00:21:44,160 Speaker 12: mafias that exist within these agencies. The Bureau is very 451 00:21:44,200 --> 00:21:48,720 Speaker 12: bad about it. And once somebody who has the same ideology, 452 00:21:49,080 --> 00:21:52,880 Speaker 12: who has the same group of people that for instance, 453 00:21:52,920 --> 00:21:57,159 Speaker 12: SWAT operators, once they get somebody in a position of authority, 454 00:21:57,440 --> 00:22:01,240 Speaker 12: they'll stack the ranks with their buddies and the guys 455 00:22:01,240 --> 00:22:04,000 Speaker 12: that they know the best, whether they're good or not 456 00:22:04,800 --> 00:22:08,119 Speaker 12: at supervising. You have the same thing with females that 457 00:22:08,200 --> 00:22:10,639 Speaker 12: are activists in the Bureau, and they'll stack their ranks 458 00:22:10,680 --> 00:22:13,200 Speaker 12: with people that are loyal to them or that are 459 00:22:13,240 --> 00:22:17,719 Speaker 12: other females, just like DEI, and of course the leftists 460 00:22:18,680 --> 00:22:22,560 Speaker 12: will stack recruit and pull people up through the ranks 461 00:22:22,600 --> 00:22:26,280 Speaker 12: the same way. It is almost it's virtually impossible for 462 00:22:26,359 --> 00:22:29,960 Speaker 12: somebody to come on board and run the bureau and 463 00:22:30,119 --> 00:22:31,320 Speaker 12: clean the bureau up. 464 00:22:31,200 --> 00:22:31,960 Speaker 9: At the same time. 465 00:22:32,040 --> 00:22:35,399 Speaker 12: So I've been saying all along that Trump needs to 466 00:22:35,440 --> 00:22:38,360 Speaker 12: have a Justice Zar, just like he has a Borders 467 00:22:38,359 --> 00:22:41,600 Speaker 12: are who puts together a team and looks at every 468 00:22:41,720 --> 00:22:46,600 Speaker 12: single agency individually and as a group, locates these mafias, 469 00:22:46,720 --> 00:22:49,399 Speaker 12: locates how these agencies. 470 00:22:48,880 --> 00:22:52,080 Speaker 9: Work, and then clean them up and bring. 471 00:22:51,720 --> 00:22:54,800 Speaker 12: That to the directors and the age so they can 472 00:22:54,880 --> 00:22:59,840 Speaker 12: finalize that. But it just taken somebody because they're good 473 00:22:59,840 --> 00:23:03,040 Speaker 12: at attorney or because they're loyal, and putting them in 474 00:23:03,680 --> 00:23:07,719 Speaker 12: an agency at the top does not fix the agency 475 00:23:07,800 --> 00:23:11,639 Speaker 12: and most likely will not in eight in four years, 476 00:23:11,680 --> 00:23:14,560 Speaker 12: will will not result in a different type of agency. 477 00:23:14,800 --> 00:23:17,080 Speaker 1: Okay, so let me ask you this, is there anyone 478 00:23:17,160 --> 00:23:20,000 Speaker 1: specifically that you'd like to be you'd like to see 479 00:23:20,000 --> 00:23:22,399 Speaker 1: come in and be the Justice czar. 480 00:23:22,520 --> 00:23:23,200 Speaker 7: Per se. 481 00:23:24,600 --> 00:23:27,640 Speaker 12: Well, and I'm not just saying this because of my background, 482 00:23:27,680 --> 00:23:30,400 Speaker 12: but somebody like myself, there's I mean, there's a plethora 483 00:23:30,440 --> 00:23:33,120 Speaker 12: of people that have had I've had experience in four 484 00:23:33,119 --> 00:23:37,199 Speaker 12: different federal agencies, and so there's people like myself that 485 00:23:38,119 --> 00:23:41,359 Speaker 12: have the experience, have the understanding how these things work. 486 00:23:41,880 --> 00:23:44,560 Speaker 12: And I think that is the type of person it 487 00:23:44,560 --> 00:23:47,960 Speaker 12: should be. It should not be somebody who's not worked 488 00:23:48,000 --> 00:23:51,040 Speaker 12: in an agency. I go back to Tom Homan. I 489 00:23:51,080 --> 00:23:53,959 Speaker 12: think that guy could be put in a position like this. 490 00:23:54,400 --> 00:23:56,920 Speaker 12: I think I have the experience for this. I think 491 00:23:56,920 --> 00:24:01,600 Speaker 12: there's multiple people that are that have risen through the 492 00:24:01,640 --> 00:24:03,720 Speaker 12: ranks of the Bureau, or not risen through the ranks. 493 00:24:03,760 --> 00:24:07,879 Speaker 12: They were an agent, or they were in another in 494 00:24:08,160 --> 00:24:12,000 Speaker 12: ICE or DEA, and they have experienced in multiple agencies. 495 00:24:12,040 --> 00:24:14,919 Speaker 12: A lot of individuals such as myself have worked for 496 00:24:14,960 --> 00:24:18,360 Speaker 12: different agencies and they see how this works. So it's 497 00:24:18,400 --> 00:24:22,480 Speaker 12: important for Trump to look and pick somebody like that 498 00:24:23,160 --> 00:24:27,840 Speaker 12: who has the ability to get a group of people 499 00:24:27,960 --> 00:24:31,280 Speaker 12: of like minded individuals that have this service and then 500 00:24:31,320 --> 00:24:34,000 Speaker 12: they go in and they clean up and do a 501 00:24:34,040 --> 00:24:37,400 Speaker 12: purge that way. And I think that would give somebody, 502 00:24:37,800 --> 00:24:39,760 Speaker 12: you know, if you were going to put cash in there, 503 00:24:40,160 --> 00:24:43,240 Speaker 12: or somebody who was or even somebody was an FBI agent, 504 00:24:44,000 --> 00:24:47,760 Speaker 12: it would take the stress off of them of trying 505 00:24:47,800 --> 00:24:49,879 Speaker 12: to run an agency and clean it up at the 506 00:24:49,920 --> 00:24:52,480 Speaker 12: same time, cash is going to be able or whoever 507 00:24:52,600 --> 00:24:54,399 Speaker 12: takes over the FBI is going to be able to 508 00:24:54,440 --> 00:24:56,080 Speaker 12: clean up the executive floor. 509 00:24:56,640 --> 00:24:58,080 Speaker 9: That's not going to be the problem. 510 00:24:58,200 --> 00:25:02,359 Speaker 12: It's the long standing reorganization of all these agencies that 511 00:25:02,359 --> 00:25:05,560 Speaker 12: have gotten away from their mission stance, their. 512 00:25:05,440 --> 00:25:07,359 Speaker 9: Mission plans, and. 513 00:25:08,840 --> 00:25:12,119 Speaker 12: Gotten completely away from what they were initially these agency 514 00:25:12,200 --> 00:25:13,200 Speaker 12: were created to do. 515 00:25:13,680 --> 00:25:15,560 Speaker 9: And that is a big, big job. 516 00:25:16,040 --> 00:25:18,359 Speaker 2: Yeah, we certainly know that the FBI needs to there 517 00:25:18,400 --> 00:25:20,200 Speaker 2: needs to be an overhaul here right Like you mentioned, 518 00:25:20,200 --> 00:25:22,199 Speaker 2: it certainly needs to be cleaned up. We know that 519 00:25:22,280 --> 00:25:25,119 Speaker 2: Cash has been very vocal about the corruption of the 520 00:25:25,160 --> 00:25:27,679 Speaker 2: deep state. So what do you think needs to be 521 00:25:27,800 --> 00:25:30,440 Speaker 2: done on day one, day one to do this cleanup? 522 00:25:30,480 --> 00:25:35,240 Speaker 12: As you mentioned, Well, first and foremost, the executives need 523 00:25:35,280 --> 00:25:38,760 Speaker 12: to go. I think we cannot take a chance in 524 00:25:38,880 --> 00:25:42,080 Speaker 12: the FBI or any of these agencies that the executives 525 00:25:42,080 --> 00:25:47,720 Speaker 12: are competent and that they're not leftists and activists and careers. 526 00:25:47,760 --> 00:25:52,000 Speaker 12: Those are the worst things about all these agency agency 527 00:25:52,080 --> 00:25:56,840 Speaker 12: executives are that they're political in nature or ideological in nature. 528 00:25:57,480 --> 00:25:59,680 Speaker 9: So that is the first quick thing. 529 00:26:00,000 --> 00:26:03,080 Speaker 12: The second thing I would do immediately would be to 530 00:26:03,240 --> 00:26:07,440 Speaker 12: stop the recruitment process as it's done now and put 531 00:26:07,960 --> 00:26:10,240 Speaker 12: revamp that go over the whole thing. 532 00:26:10,280 --> 00:26:11,359 Speaker 9: Why are people chosen? 533 00:26:11,680 --> 00:26:15,600 Speaker 12: Are they chosen because they're specialists in these environments in 534 00:26:15,680 --> 00:26:18,919 Speaker 12: which these people will work or are they just picking people? 535 00:26:19,320 --> 00:26:21,200 Speaker 12: Like there was a guy that I knew in the bureau. 536 00:26:21,280 --> 00:26:24,040 Speaker 12: He was hired because he was Korean and he was 537 00:26:24,040 --> 00:26:28,520 Speaker 12: put on a Chinese foreign counterintelligence squad. And this guy 538 00:26:28,600 --> 00:26:32,480 Speaker 12: was Korean from Philly who was a detective on the 539 00:26:32,480 --> 00:26:36,720 Speaker 12: PHILLYPD amazing detective. He wasn't even put on the Asian 540 00:26:36,840 --> 00:26:41,480 Speaker 12: organized crime squad. He was put on a counterintelligence squad. 541 00:26:41,760 --> 00:26:43,879 Speaker 12: That makes no sense. And they do that all the time. 542 00:26:44,119 --> 00:26:46,960 Speaker 12: So why are we hiring these people? Where should they go? 543 00:26:47,280 --> 00:26:51,080 Speaker 12: And those processes could be done very quickly. After that, 544 00:26:51,640 --> 00:26:54,840 Speaker 12: you have to start going through and looking at what 545 00:26:55,200 --> 00:26:59,199 Speaker 12: the testing process is for people to rise through the ranks. 546 00:26:59,720 --> 00:27:02,919 Speaker 12: If very quickly, I think you would see that people 547 00:27:03,240 --> 00:27:06,359 Speaker 12: are pulled up. They don't excel up and climb a ladder, 548 00:27:06,359 --> 00:27:09,000 Speaker 12: They're pulled up because of who they are. That process 549 00:27:09,080 --> 00:27:12,680 Speaker 12: needs to be redone as well. And then I think 550 00:27:12,720 --> 00:27:16,240 Speaker 12: somehow someway and I think this is something that everybody 551 00:27:16,280 --> 00:27:19,600 Speaker 12: needs to sit down and think about very intensely, is 552 00:27:20,080 --> 00:27:24,560 Speaker 12: how do you purge leftists out of all these agencies 553 00:27:24,880 --> 00:27:28,000 Speaker 12: because they have an agenda and it is not what 554 00:27:28,040 --> 00:27:31,879 Speaker 12: the mission plan is for the agencies. It always comes 555 00:27:31,920 --> 00:27:35,600 Speaker 12: back to what is best for them politically and for 556 00:27:35,680 --> 00:27:37,480 Speaker 12: their ideologies to be pushed forward. 557 00:27:38,119 --> 00:27:41,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, well, that is certainly some interesting insight there. But 558 00:27:41,640 --> 00:27:44,439 Speaker 2: the first up is getting Cash confirmed. So we know 559 00:27:44,480 --> 00:27:47,560 Speaker 2: that Ron DeSantis, he sent a message to Senate Republicans 560 00:27:47,600 --> 00:27:49,720 Speaker 2: considering voting against cash Battel. 561 00:27:49,800 --> 00:27:51,080 Speaker 4: Take a listen to what he had to say. 562 00:27:51,600 --> 00:27:53,440 Speaker 13: So one, I think you do owe the President a 563 00:27:53,440 --> 00:27:57,320 Speaker 13: great deal of deference on his picks. Cash Battel understands 564 00:27:57,359 --> 00:28:00,520 Speaker 13: the problems with the FBI, and he is a former 565 00:28:00,560 --> 00:28:03,840 Speaker 13: that will not be captured by the bureaucrats. Contrast that 566 00:28:03,960 --> 00:28:06,600 Speaker 13: to our current FBI director, Christopher Right. 567 00:28:07,040 --> 00:28:10,439 Speaker 2: So do you anticipate there are any specific Senate Republicans 568 00:28:10,440 --> 00:28:13,400 Speaker 2: that might be voting against him. 569 00:28:13,680 --> 00:28:16,560 Speaker 12: That's very difficult because so everything I've been saying about 570 00:28:16,560 --> 00:28:21,520 Speaker 12: these agencies is also common in the in Congress itself. 571 00:28:22,000 --> 00:28:27,000 Speaker 12: So you will have representatives that will and senators who 572 00:28:27,040 --> 00:28:30,960 Speaker 12: will work across the aisle for things that they believe 573 00:28:31,000 --> 00:28:33,280 Speaker 12: are going to be the best for their career or 574 00:28:33,320 --> 00:28:36,800 Speaker 12: for their constituents. And I'm not talking about the constituents that, 575 00:28:37,040 --> 00:28:40,240 Speaker 12: for instance, are suffering because of a natural disaster. They're 576 00:28:40,240 --> 00:28:44,280 Speaker 12: constituents that donate the most money to them, and so 577 00:28:45,480 --> 00:28:51,040 Speaker 12: if they are career is minded, that I think could 578 00:28:51,080 --> 00:28:56,240 Speaker 12: be the biggest problem with getting somebody like cash Betel confirmed. 579 00:28:56,800 --> 00:29:00,880 Speaker 12: The other problem that I do believe that Cash could 580 00:29:00,920 --> 00:29:05,840 Speaker 12: have is that after the hype is over, because there's 581 00:29:05,840 --> 00:29:09,240 Speaker 12: a tremendous amount of hype around Cash Batail, I don't 582 00:29:09,240 --> 00:29:12,400 Speaker 12: believe in that hype. I don't believe and again I 583 00:29:12,400 --> 00:29:15,560 Speaker 12: don't have anything against Cash, matel anybody could run the 584 00:29:15,600 --> 00:29:21,680 Speaker 12: bureau basically with some law enforcement or legal experience, But 585 00:29:23,400 --> 00:29:26,360 Speaker 12: all of this hype around people that are appointed to 586 00:29:26,480 --> 00:29:30,040 Speaker 12: these things, I do not buy into that, because we 587 00:29:30,160 --> 00:29:33,240 Speaker 12: have to have the best in these positions. If he's 588 00:29:33,280 --> 00:29:35,400 Speaker 12: not the best for the job and that comes out, 589 00:29:35,680 --> 00:29:37,040 Speaker 12: then he shouldn't be confirmed. 590 00:29:37,160 --> 00:29:39,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, well, said Jonathan. I'm so sorry to cut you 591 00:29:39,560 --> 00:29:41,280 Speaker 2: off here. We are running out of time. We could 592 00:29:41,280 --> 00:29:43,120 Speaker 2: talk to you a whole day about this.

This government is so corrupt and it's so 662 00:33:19,880 --> 00:33:23,440 Speaker 16: riddled with fraud and the crimes against humanity that they 663 00:33:23,440 --> 00:33:28,760 Speaker 16: are perpetrating through the six Executive Orders, specifically, which are 664 00:33:28,760 --> 00:33:33,760 Speaker 16: diverting funds around congressional appropriation down to agencies, which are 665 00:33:33,800 --> 00:33:36,480 Speaker 16: then siphening it down to the local level, stealing the 666 00:33:36,520 --> 00:33:39,680 Speaker 16: sovereignty of the local municipalities and the people and which 667 00:33:39,760 --> 00:33:43,520 Speaker 16: reside in those municipalities is absolutely incredible. 668 00:33:43,520 --> 00:33:44,400 Speaker 4: It's breathtaking. 669 00:33:44,440 --> 00:33:48,160 Speaker 16: The sweeping war on global resources, including land grads that 670 00:33:48,240 --> 00:33:50,560 Speaker 16: is occurring in North Carolina. I look at it as 671 00:33:50,560 --> 00:33:53,200 Speaker 16: ground zero and if we can bring that patient back 672 00:33:53,240 --> 00:33:56,320 Speaker 16: to life, restore the heartbeat there, I think, so goes America. 673 00:33:56,760 --> 00:33:57,360 Speaker 4: Quite frankly. 674 00:33:58,000 --> 00:34:00,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, Well, these topics that you talk about here, I mean, 675 00:34:00,200 --> 00:34:02,959 Speaker 2: the corruption, the ultimate suffering of the North Carolina residents, 676 00:34:03,000 --> 00:34:04,840 Speaker 2: those are all things that you discussed in the X 677 00:34:04,840 --> 00:34:08,280 Speaker 2: space that you hosted to benefit the victims of Hurricane Helen. 678 00:34:08,520 --> 00:34:10,160 Speaker 2: So can you tell us a little bit more about that, 679 00:34:10,280 --> 00:34:12,520 Speaker 2: and how is General Flynn helping out here? 680 00:34:13,800 --> 00:34:15,280 Speaker 4: General Flynn is quite remarkable. 681 00:34:15,600 --> 00:34:17,560 Speaker 16: He is I call him the world's general, and he 682 00:34:17,719 --> 00:34:19,880 Speaker 16: got on the ground in North Carolina shortly after the 683 00:34:19,920 --> 00:34:22,480 Speaker 16: disaster and made what a general can always do as 684 00:34:22,480 --> 00:34:25,759 Speaker 16: a complete assessment of the situation. He was pretty much 685 00:34:25,800 --> 00:34:27,719 Speaker 16: all over the western part of the state on the 686 00:34:27,719 --> 00:34:30,920 Speaker 16: ground talking with community leaders that were organizing. Two that 687 00:34:31,040 --> 00:34:32,960 Speaker 16: rise to the occasion that I met with as well, 688 00:34:33,080 --> 00:34:37,480 Speaker 16: Dana and Paula Nunez, who run out of Avery Airfield, 689 00:34:37,520 --> 00:34:40,200 Speaker 16: have done an incredible job of coordinating not only with 690 00:34:40,440 --> 00:34:44,640 Speaker 16: at the time National Guard that was there seemingly trying 691 00:34:44,680 --> 00:34:45,240 Speaker 16: to take. 692 00:34:45,040 --> 00:34:46,839 Speaker 4: Over the airfield but wasn't going to happen. 693 00:34:46,840 --> 00:34:50,719 Speaker 16: It's private owner operation, but he is coordinated with state 694 00:34:50,760 --> 00:34:53,480 Speaker 16: and local officials, sheriffs, anybody that wants to come in, 695 00:34:53,520 --> 00:34:56,920 Speaker 16: including other organizations around the state. He even volunteered to 696 00:34:57,000 --> 00:34:58,840 Speaker 16: kind of stand up and be sort of the de 697 00:34:59,000 --> 00:35:03,640 Speaker 16: facto community organizer, which makes perfect sense and we all 698 00:35:03,680 --> 00:35:06,399 Speaker 16: agreed on that space last night. General Flynn, however, very 699 00:35:06,400 --> 00:35:09,160 Speaker 16: good at identifying talent like that, you know, call Tea 700 00:35:09,200 --> 00:35:11,880 Speaker 16: and several other folks out up to the stage to 701 00:35:12,000 --> 00:35:14,120 Speaker 16: lift them up and put a spotlight on people that 702 00:35:14,200 --> 00:35:17,120 Speaker 16: have good ideas and plans and because you know, the 703 00:35:17,160 --> 00:35:20,919 Speaker 16: generals have to take information and make quick assessments when 704 00:35:20,960 --> 00:35:23,200 Speaker 16: you are engaged in the heat of battle. There's none 705 00:35:23,239 --> 00:35:25,439 Speaker 16: other than I can you know, would recommend that General 706 00:35:25,520 --> 00:35:27,480 Speaker 16: Flynn to be on the ground in a situation which 707 00:35:27,520 --> 00:35:31,040 Speaker 16: he said far worse than most of the war torn 708 00:35:31,120 --> 00:35:33,600 Speaker 16: countries he's been and in his thirty three years of service. 709 00:35:33,640 --> 00:35:38,520 Speaker 16: So frankly, he was disappointed. And his own former outfit. 710 00:35:38,280 --> 00:35:40,000 Speaker 4: Just up the road three hours away. 711 00:35:40,480 --> 00:35:43,160 Speaker 16: And you know he wouldn't call it camp liberty, because 712 00:35:43,400 --> 00:35:44,120 Speaker 16: you know it's not. 713 00:35:45,000 --> 00:35:47,680 Speaker 4: They weren't liberally. They weren't providing liberty to anybody. 714 00:35:47,880 --> 00:35:50,759 Speaker 16: They came, they saw, they left, and frankly, it's quite 715 00:35:50,760 --> 00:35:53,279 Speaker 16: disappointing that our own military was unable to provide the 716 00:35:53,320 --> 00:35:56,320 Speaker 16: necessary resources that should be so easy for them to 717 00:35:56,840 --> 00:35:59,319 Speaker 16: correct the problem. You all live in Florida. If you've 718 00:35:59,360 --> 00:36:02,000 Speaker 16: been through a herd, you see how quickly we clean up. 719 00:36:02,040 --> 00:36:05,960 Speaker 16: When we're here, it's ten weeks later and it still 720 00:36:06,400 --> 00:36:09,120 Speaker 16: looks like the floodwaters just re seated yesterday in many 721 00:36:09,120 --> 00:36:11,799 Speaker 16: parts of North Carolina, back most of North Carolina. 722 00:36:11,880 --> 00:36:12,480 Speaker 5: That's a good thing. 723 00:36:12,719 --> 00:36:15,080 Speaker 3: Well, and we've been keeping a close eye on your reporting. 724 00:36:15,120 --> 00:36:17,560 Speaker 3: Tell us what you learned about the hundreds of trailers 725 00:36:17,800 --> 00:36:20,040 Speaker 3: that were supposed to be used for FEMA contractors. 726 00:36:21,360 --> 00:36:23,239 Speaker 4: Yeah, so quite interesting enough. 727 00:36:23,320 --> 00:36:26,000 Speaker 16: These Gamba camps that I visited in Barnstorm, the live 728 00:36:26,000 --> 00:36:29,440 Speaker 16: stream and several occasions across the state, we're very secretive 729 00:36:29,560 --> 00:36:32,560 Speaker 16: armed guards, and they told me that the climate controlled 730 00:36:32,600 --> 00:36:35,000 Speaker 16: trailers were for their people, for the seven hundred or 731 00:36:35,000 --> 00:36:38,279 Speaker 16: so contractors at one facility and Candor, North Carolina. I 732 00:36:38,360 --> 00:36:40,120 Speaker 16: questioned whether they were going to pull up stakes and 733 00:36:40,200 --> 00:36:43,560 Speaker 16: leave because they were concerned about militia, and the spokesperson, 734 00:36:43,640 --> 00:36:46,600 Speaker 16: Josh War told me absolutely not. The federal government was 735 00:36:46,640 --> 00:36:49,720 Speaker 16: there to stay. Well, by last weekend, they're already pulling 736 00:36:49,760 --> 00:36:54,400 Speaker 16: up stakes. The scamp sprim fencing, the tinted fencing. 737 00:36:54,080 --> 00:36:54,759 Speaker 17: Is all down. 738 00:36:54,840 --> 00:36:57,840 Speaker 16: In fact, all fencing is down. They're dismantling the trailers. 739 00:36:57,880 --> 00:36:59,640 Speaker 16: You're able to drive on the property. There is no 740 00:36:59,680 --> 00:37:02,120 Speaker 16: evidence of armed guards. In fact, any of the operational 741 00:37:02,160 --> 00:37:05,279 Speaker 16: commanders are empty. I've had some of my contacts that 742 00:37:05,320 --> 00:37:07,960 Speaker 16: I was working with providing me live video from the area, 743 00:37:08,320 --> 00:37:10,799 Speaker 16: and they're pulling up stakes and leaving, not only at 744 00:37:10,840 --> 00:37:12,759 Speaker 16: some of the bigger places, but at the smaller ones 745 00:37:12,760 --> 00:37:15,200 Speaker 16: as well, and the military has also taken off. So 746 00:37:15,280 --> 00:37:18,640 Speaker 16: whatever they were planning on doing prior when they thought 747 00:37:19,080 --> 00:37:21,479 Speaker 16: mal Harris was going to be the next president, they've 748 00:37:21,480 --> 00:37:24,160 Speaker 16: now abandoned ship. But I can assure you that the 749 00:37:24,200 --> 00:37:27,520 Speaker 16: money that flowed through to those federal contractors has all 750 00:37:27,560 --> 00:37:31,480 Speaker 16: been gone. There'll be no refunds, they'll be nothing to 751 00:37:31,480 --> 00:37:34,200 Speaker 16: give back the taxpayers. About the best we can hope for, 752 00:37:34,280 --> 00:37:36,840 Speaker 16: and this is going to take a herculean effort, is 753 00:37:36,880 --> 00:37:39,279 Speaker 16: to lobby for those climate control trailers to be given 754 00:37:39,320 --> 00:37:43,280 Speaker 16: to the families that are still camping intense and sub freezing, 755 00:37:43,360 --> 00:37:45,120 Speaker 16: snowy conditionful and awful. 756 00:37:45,120 --> 00:37:47,400 Speaker 2: I'm so sorry that we're running out of time, so disappointed. 757 00:37:47,640 --> 00:37:49,560 Speaker 2: I want to hear more from you and hope hopefully 758 00:37:49,600 --> 00:37:51,200 Speaker 2: we bring you back on the show sometimes soon. 759 00:37:51,239 --> 00:37:53,680 Speaker 4: Thank you for being with us today.

So what do you 829 00:40:41,400 --> 00:40:43,920 Speaker 3: think about the fact that, let's say Cash Betel, for instance, 830 00:40:44,000 --> 00:40:46,080 Speaker 3: would be the head of an agency. It's tough to 831 00:40:46,160 --> 00:40:49,400 Speaker 3: execute that agency while also cleaning it out politically, and 832 00:40:49,440 --> 00:40:51,440 Speaker 3: he had this idea of bringing in a czar to 833 00:40:51,600 --> 00:40:54,680 Speaker 3: maybe clean out the cobwebs of it while not necessarily 834 00:40:54,719 --> 00:40:56,640 Speaker 3: having to execute it. What are your thoughts, Michelle, and 835 00:40:56,640 --> 00:40:59,680 Speaker 3: having someone oversee the department for political purposes and clean 836 00:40:59,680 --> 00:41:03,240 Speaker 3: out those cobwebs while also having someone else execute the agency. 837 00:41:03,440 --> 00:41:04,720 Speaker 7: I don't think it's a horrible idea. 838 00:41:04,800 --> 00:41:06,880 Speaker 1: But I will say that I'm very excited for the 839 00:41:06,880 --> 00:41:07,640 Speaker 1: Cash nomination. 840 00:41:07,880 --> 00:41:09,839 Speaker 7: I am very much so team Cash. I think this 841 00:41:09,880 --> 00:41:10,720 Speaker 7: is a great nomination. 842 00:41:10,800 --> 00:41:13,640 Speaker 1: You want loyalists in there to carry out Trump's agenda, 843 00:41:13,640 --> 00:41:16,200 Speaker 1: and we should honor his nominations. So I am very 844 00:41:16,280 --> 00:41:19,200 Speaker 1: much on board for Cash, but I don't think it'd 845 00:41:19,239 --> 00:41:21,279 Speaker 1: be a horrible idea to include someone else. 846 00:41:21,280 --> 00:41:21,560 Speaker 4: Emiley. 847 00:41:21,800 --> 00:41:23,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, I think that's kind of a similar 848 00:41:23,360 --> 00:41:25,239 Speaker 2: to what we're seeing happen with Tom Holman being the 849 00:41:25,239 --> 00:41:29,680 Speaker 2: Borders are and Christino as DHS Secretary kind of working together. 850 00:41:29,760 --> 00:41:31,440 Speaker 2: And I think that being able to have someone like 851 00:41:31,480 --> 00:41:33,480 Speaker 2: you said, Bo kind of managing the day to day 852 00:41:33,520 --> 00:41:35,839 Speaker 2: at the FBI, which is obviously essential, needs to still 853 00:41:35,840 --> 00:41:38,239 Speaker 2: happen while you have someone else doing the oversight and 854 00:41:38,280 --> 00:41:40,279 Speaker 2: someone you know, trying to figure out who needs to go, 855 00:41:40,360 --> 00:41:43,160 Speaker 2: who needs to stay, what programs still need to continue on, 856 00:41:43,320 --> 00:41:45,680 Speaker 2: and how they can really cut funding. And I think 857 00:41:45,680 --> 00:41:47,880 Speaker 2: that Elon and Vevaik will be helping out with this 858 00:41:48,080 --> 00:41:50,560 Speaker 2: as well with Doge, so hopefully we'll be able to 859 00:41:50,560 --> 00:41:52,759 Speaker 2: see all these Republican rock stars that Trump has been 860 00:41:52,760 --> 00:41:56,120 Speaker 2: selecting to serve the next administration really just hit the 861 00:41:56,120 --> 00:41:57,879 Speaker 2: ground running on day one and get to work. 862 00:41:58,000 --> 00:41:58,200 Speaker 5: Yeah. 863 00:41:58,239 --> 00:42:00,239 Speaker 3: Man, I know we covered the View earlier to ask 864 00:42:00,320 --> 00:42:02,759 Speaker 3: both of you, sister, both ladies, would you ever want 865 00:42:02,800 --> 00:42:05,479 Speaker 3: to go on that show and be the conservative voice 866 00:42:05,520 --> 00:42:05,879 Speaker 3: on that show. 867 00:42:05,920 --> 00:42:06,680 Speaker 5: It's a difficult thing. 868 00:42:06,960 --> 00:42:10,480 Speaker 3: Canner's Cameron Bray has done it, Elizabeth Hasselbeck, Meghan McCain, 869 00:42:10,560 --> 00:42:14,239 Speaker 3: They've all said they've had such horror stories in their memoirs. 870 00:42:14,719 --> 00:42:16,399 Speaker 5: I have done it, Yeah, exactly. 871 00:42:16,360 --> 00:42:18,600 Speaker 1: Very in that situation, because I do think it's important 872 00:42:18,640 --> 00:42:19,280 Speaker 1: to acknowledge. 873 00:42:19,320 --> 00:42:20,320 Speaker 5: Yeah, it's difficult. 874 00:42:20,360 --> 00:42:22,880 Speaker 3: When you're on a panel show where everyone thinks differently 875 00:42:22,880 --> 00:42:23,279 Speaker 3: from you. 876 00:42:23,520 --> 00:42:24,760 Speaker 5: It makes you a really good debater. 877 00:42:24,840 --> 00:42:26,480 Speaker 3: I will tell you that you have to speak in 878 00:42:26,560 --> 00:42:29,000 Speaker 3: sound bites because you're going to be interrupted, and that's intentional. 879 00:42:29,040 --> 00:42:30,839 Speaker 5: By the way. I think they do that on the View. 880 00:42:30,880 --> 00:42:34,839 Speaker 3: It's not just what the personalities that you see on television. 881 00:42:35,120 --> 00:42:38,760 Speaker 3: It's the producers, it's the whole apparatus. I thought media 882 00:42:38,880 --> 00:42:40,719 Speaker 3: was liberal. I didn't know it till I was in it, 883 00:42:40,880 --> 00:42:43,000 Speaker 3: and you actually see how it works against you. It's 884 00:42:43,040 --> 00:42:45,480 Speaker 3: the way scripts are written, it's the way your cards 885 00:42:45,480 --> 00:42:47,399 Speaker 3: that you're going. I can't believe we're talking that. Jesse 886 00:42:47,520 --> 00:42:49,920 Speaker 3: Smallett beat up by two mega guys and it's written 887 00:42:49,920 --> 00:42:50,400 Speaker 3: as fact. 888 00:42:50,840 --> 00:42:53,520 Speaker 5: It's Nick Sandman. These are things I'm reading. 889 00:42:53,520 --> 00:42:55,319 Speaker 3: I'm going I can't believe this is that we're reading 890 00:42:55,360 --> 00:42:57,080 Speaker 3: it this way today because no one has done the 891 00:42:57,080 --> 00:42:59,759 Speaker 3: freaking fact checking. So would either of you ladies go 892 00:42:59,760 --> 00:43:01,680 Speaker 3: into the position? Do you know you could handle it? 893 00:43:01,719 --> 00:43:03,680 Speaker 3: You're both great? But would you want to do it? 894 00:43:03,960 --> 00:43:05,120 Speaker 3: I think it'd be really difficult. 895 00:43:05,200 --> 00:43:07,040 Speaker 2: I mean, I want to reference something earlier in the show, 896 00:43:07,160 --> 00:43:08,319 Speaker 2: Eric Adams, when he came. 897 00:43:08,239 --> 00:43:09,279 Speaker 4: Out and said, cancel me. 898 00:43:09,440 --> 00:43:11,160 Speaker 2: I think that's the kind of attitude that you have 899 00:43:11,239 --> 00:43:13,920 Speaker 2: to have going in as the Republican woman on the view. 900 00:43:14,120 --> 00:43:16,120 Speaker 4: Cancel me if you want, but I am sticking by 901 00:43:16,200 --> 00:43:16,800 Speaker 4: my beliefs. 902 00:43:16,880 --> 00:43:18,560 Speaker 2: To reference the stories that you were just talking about 903 00:43:18,600 --> 00:43:20,839 Speaker 2: with Nick Sandman, how could anyone look at that full 904 00:43:20,920 --> 00:43:23,759 Speaker 2: video and still report on it in a way that 905 00:43:23,880 --> 00:43:25,080 Speaker 2: he was the one that was. 906 00:43:25,000 --> 00:43:26,480 Speaker 4: Guilty in that entire situation. 907 00:43:26,600 --> 00:43:28,839 Speaker 2: I mean, you have to be really confident in your 908 00:43:28,840 --> 00:43:30,799 Speaker 2: beliefs and you have to articulate them well in order 909 00:43:30,840 --> 00:43:31,200 Speaker 2: to do that. 910 00:43:31,280 --> 00:43:33,480 Speaker 4: Michelle, would you ever put yourself through all of that? 911 00:43:33,680 --> 00:43:35,920 Speaker 1: I would, But I want to go back to something 912 00:43:35,960 --> 00:43:38,239 Speaker 1: you said, because you have a little story, I'm my 913 00:43:38,280 --> 00:43:40,640 Speaker 1: own story about mainstream media. And this is when I 914 00:43:40,680 --> 00:43:43,640 Speaker 1: deviated from mainstream media. It was during COVID, and I'll 915 00:43:43,680 --> 00:43:45,799 Speaker 1: never forget this. I tell this story quite often, but 916 00:43:45,960 --> 00:43:48,360 Speaker 1: during COVID, I had a few viewers that were messaging 917 00:43:48,400 --> 00:43:51,040 Speaker 1: me saying, for instance, one family member died in a 918 00:43:51,080 --> 00:43:54,120 Speaker 1: car accident and the death certificate said COVID, even though 919 00:43:54,200 --> 00:43:56,799 Speaker 1: that's not how they died. So they contacted me about it. 920 00:43:56,800 --> 00:43:59,400 Speaker 1: And then I noticed a similar trend. This happened multiple times, 921 00:43:59,640 --> 00:44:01,719 Speaker 1: and I tried to report on it. I tried to 922 00:44:01,760 --> 00:44:04,160 Speaker 1: do a huge piece on it, and it got shut down. 923 00:44:04,520 --> 00:44:07,440 Speaker 1: And that's when I realized something's very, very fishy about 924 00:44:07,440 --> 00:44:08,200 Speaker 1: mainstream media. 925 00:44:08,320 --> 00:44:09,719 Speaker 7: And that's ultimately when I stepped away. 926 00:44:09,760 --> 00:44:13,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, mainstream media and the entertainment industry as well. I 927 00:44:13,000 --> 00:44:15,160 Speaker 2: believe we have our guest joining us that you. 928 00:44:15,160 --> 00:44:16,759 Speaker 3: Talk a little more about the season, and we have 929 00:44:16,840 --> 00:44:20,520 Speaker 3: to talk with rat Pack Royalty.

So it was, 1000 00:47:20,280 --> 00:47:23,560 Speaker 18: you know, it was, oh, there's Ricardo Montabon. I see 1001 00:47:23,600 --> 00:47:26,640 Speaker 18: her showing that with Esther Williams. And so then that 1002 00:47:26,800 --> 00:47:28,399 Speaker 18: was the first one. Then at the end of that 1003 00:47:28,480 --> 00:47:32,400 Speaker 18: show they had a Red Skeleton with someone else. I 1004 00:47:32,440 --> 00:47:35,399 Speaker 18: don't know if it was Rosemary Clooney or whatever. So 1005 00:47:35,480 --> 00:47:38,000 Speaker 18: it was just, oh, you know, he's begging her to stay, 1006 00:47:38,120 --> 00:47:38,960 Speaker 18: please don't go. 1007 00:47:39,400 --> 00:47:41,279 Speaker 17: So it was just it was just all wrong. 1008 00:47:41,040 --> 00:47:44,480 Speaker 18: And stupidly woke, and hopefully we're not like that anymore. 1009 00:47:44,920 --> 00:47:48,120 Speaker 18: You know, women can stick up for themselves. Men can too, 1010 00:47:48,280 --> 00:47:49,040 Speaker 18: you know, so it. 1011 00:47:50,120 --> 00:47:53,120 Speaker 5: Was an absurdist thing that they tried to do. Anyway 1012 00:47:53,960 --> 00:47:54,560 Speaker 5: it was. 1013 00:47:54,800 --> 00:47:57,279 Speaker 17: It was just, you know, there's just so much of that. 1014 00:47:59,239 --> 00:48:01,440 Speaker 5: Saying yeah me exactly, Dina. 1015 00:48:01,480 --> 00:48:04,200 Speaker 3: I really love your recording of White Christmas with Andy Williams, 1016 00:48:04,239 --> 00:48:07,200 Speaker 3: another one of the legendary nostalgic Christmas voices.
