0:00:21.817 --> 0:00:25.737
<v Speaker 1>On Thursday, August fourth edition of the program, we have

0:00:25.897 --> 0:00:29.697
<v Speaker 1>Mayor Adams of New York City saying that the criminal

0:00:29.777 --> 0:00:34.697
<v Speaker 1>justice system here is broken and dropping a whole bunch

0:00:34.737 --> 0:00:39.577
<v Speaker 1>of stats and anecdotes about just how messed up it is,

0:00:39.977 --> 0:00:43.777
<v Speaker 1>specifically with respect to recidivism, as in people that commit

0:00:43.777 --> 0:00:46.257
<v Speaker 1>crimes and then commit them again and again and again

0:00:47.017 --> 0:00:50.377
<v Speaker 1>and don't get punished. Why we will dive into that.

0:00:50.897 --> 0:00:54.257
<v Speaker 1>Plus the hearings up on Capitol Hill about gain of

0:00:54.337 --> 0:01:00.017
<v Speaker 1>function research with some pretty scary possibilities coming out of

0:01:00.057 --> 0:01:03.977
<v Speaker 1>it given what we've seen from the COVID pandemic. Worth

0:01:04.017 --> 0:01:06.977
<v Speaker 1>asking one, did this in fact come from a lab

0:01:06.977 --> 0:01:08.617
<v Speaker 1>because it looks like it came from a lab? And

0:01:08.777 --> 0:01:12.177
<v Speaker 1>two could it be a lot worse in the future

0:01:12.257 --> 0:01:17.097
<v Speaker 1>unless we stop this stuff. We will dive into that,

0:01:17.217 --> 0:01:20.657
<v Speaker 1>my friends, much much makes sense sense of. And then

0:01:20.657 --> 0:01:24.617
<v Speaker 1>perhaps a little bit on the reconciliation bill that will

0:01:24.657 --> 0:01:29.977
<v Speaker 1>now allegedly get past with the help of Kristen Cinema

0:01:30.057 --> 0:01:33.057
<v Speaker 1>and some changes she is thinking about. We'll see what's

0:01:33.137 --> 0:01:35.377

0:03:33.457 --> 0:03:37.537
<v Speaker 1>justice system in the era of progressive prosecutors. And I've

0:03:37.537 --> 0:03:40.777
<v Speaker 1>been talking to you all about what has happened as

0:03:40.777 --> 0:03:46.097
<v Speaker 1>a result of their decisions, what has happened in major

0:03:46.137 --> 0:03:48.657
<v Speaker 1>cities and now even towns and royal areas across the

0:03:48.697 --> 0:03:52.337
<v Speaker 1>country that are under the control of these progressive prosecutors

0:03:52.537 --> 0:03:55.217
<v Speaker 1>for a long time. And everything I told you has

0:03:55.217 --> 0:03:59.417
<v Speaker 1>been proven correct true. And now even the Libs the

0:03:59.497 --> 0:04:03.937
<v Speaker 1>Democrats are having to admit this in some places, not everywhere.

0:04:03.937 --> 0:04:06.017
<v Speaker 1>They're still fighting against it. You're gonna find someone, you know,

0:04:06.297 --> 0:04:10.377
<v Speaker 1>former public defender, part of the Soros Institute, who says, oh,

0:04:10.457 --> 0:04:12.217
<v Speaker 1>it's just we need to deal with all the racism

0:04:12.217 --> 0:04:14.297
<v Speaker 1>and the criminal justice system, so let's just let people

0:04:14.337 --> 0:04:16.657
<v Speaker 1>out of prison and not prosecute them in the first place.

0:04:16.737 --> 0:04:19.617
<v Speaker 1>That's not that's not addressing root causes of racism. That's

0:04:19.617 --> 0:04:24.177
<v Speaker 1>just undermining the law. That's all that is. Mayor Eric Adams,

0:04:24.217 --> 0:04:30.137
<v Speaker 1>the African American mayor of New York City, has adopted

0:04:30.177 --> 0:04:33.177
<v Speaker 1>a very clear tone of we need to knock this

0:04:33.857 --> 0:04:38.377
<v Speaker 1>crap off, We need to stop this in America's largest city.

0:04:38.617 --> 0:04:42.817
<v Speaker 1>And you could have this same conversation in any blue

0:04:42.857 --> 0:04:45.537
<v Speaker 1>state in the country, any city, really in the country

0:04:45.577 --> 0:04:50.297
<v Speaker 1>with only a few exceptions where there's a progressive prosecutor.

0:04:50.337 --> 0:04:54.217
<v Speaker 1>You have this problem where there's a progressive prosecutor, it's

0:04:54.737 --> 0:04:56.377
<v Speaker 1>an issue you have to handle. Here's some of the

0:04:56.377 --> 0:04:59.097
<v Speaker 1>stuff that that Adams is saying. This is from a

0:04:59.137 --> 0:05:01.777
<v Speaker 1>press conference that they did in this actually here we

0:05:01.777 --> 0:05:05.457
<v Speaker 1>actually have some of this. Here's Eric Adams saying that

0:05:05.537 --> 0:05:10.417
<v Speaker 1>the criminal justice system is broken. Our criminal justice system

0:05:10.617 --> 0:05:14.817
<v Speaker 1>is insane, it is dangerous, it is harmful, and it's

0:05:14.897 --> 0:05:19.297
<v Speaker 1>destroying the fabric of our city. Under the current law,

0:05:19.857 --> 0:05:22.897
<v Speaker 1>judges are not allowed to consider whether someone is a

0:05:22.977 --> 0:05:28.177
<v Speaker 1>threat to public safety when deciding whether or not to

0:05:28.377 --> 0:05:33.137
<v Speaker 1>hold them in custody. This is a big mistake. As

0:05:33.137 --> 0:05:38.537
<v Speaker 1>a result of this insane broken system, our recidivism rates

0:05:38.977 --> 0:05:47.537
<v Speaker 1>have skyrocketed. Recidivism has skyrocketed. Now, this is completely contrary.

0:05:48.057 --> 0:05:51.457
<v Speaker 1>The promise is made by the sorost progressive prosecutor types

0:05:52.417 --> 0:05:57.617
<v Speaker 1>San Francisco, New York, Seattle, Portland, Los Angeles, Chicago, Atlanta,

0:05:57.777 --> 0:06:05.337
<v Speaker 1>Saint Louis, Houston. Go down the list, Go down the list, Milwaukee, Detroit,

0:06:05.657 --> 0:06:09.817
<v Speaker 1>progressive prosecutors in all these places. Soros, it took him

0:06:09.897 --> 0:06:14.257
<v Speaker 1>year seeded these progressive prosecutors everywhere, and the crime rates

0:06:14.257 --> 0:06:16.377
<v Speaker 1>are way up, and the murder rates are way up,

0:06:16.937 --> 0:06:20.377
<v Speaker 1>not you know, five percent, they're up thirty percent, fifty percent,

0:06:20.937 --> 0:06:24.457
<v Speaker 1>depends on the category you're talking about. And speaking of

0:06:24.497 --> 0:06:26.657
<v Speaker 1>the numbers, let's dive into the numbers here in New

0:06:26.737 --> 0:06:29.737
<v Speaker 1>York City for a second. Mayor Adam said this, He said,

0:06:29.777 --> 0:06:31.937
<v Speaker 1>let's look at the real numbers. In twenty twenty two,

0:06:32.857 --> 0:06:37.217
<v Speaker 1>twenty five percent of the roughly fifteen hundred people arrested

0:06:37.257 --> 0:06:43.817
<v Speaker 1>for burglary committed another felony within sixty days. That's three

0:06:43.897 --> 0:06:45.937
<v Speaker 1>hundred and ninety three people who did the same thing

0:06:46.217 --> 0:06:50.577
<v Speaker 1>in twenty seventeen, before the changes in the law, before

0:06:50.577 --> 0:06:54.217
<v Speaker 1>the progressive prosecutors came along and got their way, seven

0:06:54.297 --> 0:06:58.457
<v Speaker 1>point seven percent went on to commit another crime. For

0:06:58.497 --> 0:07:02.337
<v Speaker 1>grand larceny. In twenty twenty two, the sixty day recidivism

0:07:02.417 --> 0:07:05.817
<v Speaker 1>rate was sixteen point eight percent three hundred and ten people,

0:07:05.857 --> 0:07:12.817
<v Speaker 1>compared with six point five percent in twenty seventeen. So

0:07:12.937 --> 0:07:17.657
<v Speaker 1>you have for cidivism rates tripling, quadrupling just a matter

0:07:17.697 --> 0:07:21.337
<v Speaker 1>of years. Why is that happening. It's not because of COVID,

0:07:21.737 --> 0:07:26.217
<v Speaker 1>it's not because of you know, whatever, they're gonna throw

0:07:26.337 --> 0:07:29.417
<v Speaker 1>your way with Oh, you know, it's it's just the

0:07:29.537 --> 0:07:33.257
<v Speaker 1>system is having it. No, they change the system, and

0:07:33.337 --> 0:07:35.537
<v Speaker 1>they made it worse, and they made it so that

0:07:36.897 --> 0:07:42.377
<v Speaker 1>we aren't as safe as we were before. Mayor Adams

0:07:42.537 --> 0:07:46.857
<v Speaker 1>keeps going here. Actually no, this is Chief Michael la Petri,

0:07:48.417 --> 0:07:51.497
<v Speaker 1>Crime Control Strategies, Chief of the Police Department, the NYPD.

0:07:51.617 --> 0:07:55.057
<v Speaker 1>He said, in New York City, we have identified seven

0:07:55.177 --> 0:08:00.617
<v Speaker 1>hundred and sixteen individuals who are responsible for thirty percent

0:08:00.777 --> 0:08:06.537
<v Speaker 1>of the shootings in the last year or so. We're

0:08:06.577 --> 0:08:10.537
<v Speaker 1>a city in New York of eight million people. You

0:08:10.657 --> 0:08:14.817
<v Speaker 1>have seven hundred people, give or take, who are responsible

0:08:15.417 --> 0:08:19.937
<v Speaker 1>for a third of the shootings. I mean you could

0:08:19.937 --> 0:08:24.817
<v Speaker 1>you could fit all these people in, you know, a

0:08:24.937 --> 0:08:27.737
<v Speaker 1>high school gymnasium. I mean, this is not a lot

0:08:27.777 --> 0:08:31.617
<v Speaker 1>of people friends her committing third. I know there there's

0:08:31.617 --> 0:08:33.377
<v Speaker 1>other people that are commiting shootings too, but just give

0:08:33.417 --> 0:08:37.257
<v Speaker 1>you a sense of how concentrated crime really is. There

0:08:37.297 --> 0:08:40.537
<v Speaker 1>were twenty four hundred shooting incidents in New York City,

0:08:41.137 --> 0:08:43.777
<v Speaker 1>and seven hundred and sixteen people have been responsible for

0:08:43.897 --> 0:08:48.537
<v Speaker 1>thirty percent of those shootings. Each of the envision individuals

0:08:48.577 --> 0:08:54.377
<v Speaker 1>are under investigation. He says, each one already have I'm sorry,

0:08:54.377 --> 0:08:57.497
<v Speaker 1>fifty four percent of them already have a felony record.

0:08:58.617 --> 0:09:01.617
<v Speaker 1>So point zero zero eight percent of the New York

0:09:01.657 --> 0:09:05.977
<v Speaker 1>City population is responsible for thirty percent of the shootings.

0:09:06.057 --> 0:09:09.537
<v Speaker 1>What do I keep saying? They say, Oh, the criminal

0:09:09.577 --> 0:09:12.897
<v Speaker 1>justices him as racist. It's racist. So and then there's

0:09:12.897 --> 0:09:16.017
<v Speaker 1>all these all these shootings are happening, and they say

0:09:16.057 --> 0:09:19.337
<v Speaker 1>it's racist because there's a disproportionate number of individuals who

0:09:19.377 --> 0:09:24.017
<v Speaker 1>are arrested for serious crimes who are black and Hispanic. However,

0:09:24.177 --> 0:09:27.377
<v Speaker 1>what they leave out of all of this is that

0:09:28.337 --> 0:09:32.457
<v Speaker 1>what about the ninety nine you know, ninety nine point

0:09:32.857 --> 0:09:35.057
<v Speaker 1>you know whatever. I can't even do the math percent

0:09:35.217 --> 0:09:38.297
<v Speaker 1>of black and Hispanic people in New York who aren't

0:09:38.297 --> 0:09:40.897
<v Speaker 1>committing any crimes and just want to live their lives

0:09:40.937 --> 0:09:44.417
<v Speaker 1>in safety. How about them? How about we focus more

0:09:44.577 --> 0:09:46.977
<v Speaker 1>on their needs? How about we focus more on the

0:09:47.097 --> 0:09:49.977
<v Speaker 1>ninety nine percent of black residents and Hispanic residents of

0:09:49.977 --> 0:09:54.297
<v Speaker 1>New York who are law abiding and worry less about

0:09:54.377 --> 0:09:57.457
<v Speaker 1>hurting the feelings of the less than one percent who

0:09:57.457 --> 0:10:00.897
<v Speaker 1>are committing a huge percentage of the overall violent crime

0:10:01.257 --> 0:10:05.057
<v Speaker 1>in the entire city. I mean, think about what's going

0:10:05.097 --> 0:10:08.097
<v Speaker 1>on here. You've got thousands and thousands of burglaries and

0:10:08.177 --> 0:10:12.337
<v Speaker 1>robberies and homicides and all these things together. How many

0:10:12.337 --> 0:10:17.497
<v Speaker 1>people are really committing them in the whole city? Ten

0:10:17.537 --> 0:10:20.817
<v Speaker 1>thousand committing a huge percentage of them, maybe twenty thirty

0:10:20.817 --> 0:10:24.737
<v Speaker 1>thousand who are committing most of the really violent crimes,

0:10:24.817 --> 0:10:26.617
<v Speaker 1>and rose are the really serious crimes, I should say,

0:10:26.617 --> 0:10:31.257
<v Speaker 1>serious property crimes. Maybe here's an idea. We just focus

0:10:31.337 --> 0:10:36.137
<v Speaker 1>on taking them off the streets, incarcerating them, and making

0:10:36.177 --> 0:10:38.977
<v Speaker 1>life safer for the ninety nine percent of everybody else,

0:10:39.017 --> 0:10:42.137
<v Speaker 1>including the ninety nine percent of minorities of black and

0:10:42.217 --> 0:10:44.577
<v Speaker 1>Hispanic residence in the city of New York, who aren't

0:10:44.617 --> 0:10:46.617
<v Speaker 1>hurting anybody and who are obeying the laws and want

0:10:46.657 --> 0:10:48.537
<v Speaker 1>to live their lives in peace. It's just an idea,

0:10:48.617 --> 0:10:52.897
<v Speaker 1>lives right. This is what the progressive prosecutors. Oh, they whine,

0:10:52.977 --> 0:10:54.977
<v Speaker 1>They say, oh, but what about this. They find some

0:10:55.057 --> 0:10:59.577
<v Speaker 1>case of somebody who you know, it was murky circumstances,

0:10:59.697 --> 0:11:02.137
<v Speaker 1>three strike law, and everyone feels badly about it. Yeah,

0:11:02.137 --> 0:11:05.017
<v Speaker 1>there is good. It's not a perfect system, and where

0:11:05.017 --> 0:11:07.857
<v Speaker 1>there is true injustice on an individual basis, we should

0:11:07.857 --> 0:11:10.977
<v Speaker 1>rectify that, but you don't rerect if I injustice, but

0:11:11.097 --> 0:11:14.457
<v Speaker 1>just singer. This guy's only done three armed robberies. I

0:11:14.497 --> 0:11:16.977
<v Speaker 1>don't think he's going for it. He's only done fifteen burglaries.

0:11:16.977 --> 0:11:20.337
<v Speaker 1>I don't think he's going for number sixteen. You know,

0:11:20.417 --> 0:11:23.817
<v Speaker 1>he's stealing from people in his community. You know who's

0:11:23.857 --> 0:11:27.857
<v Speaker 1>suffering from this, low income people who are trying to

0:11:27.897 --> 0:11:30.857
<v Speaker 1>do the right thing every day. They're the ones being victimized.

0:11:30.977 --> 0:11:33.857
<v Speaker 1>They're the ones being attacked, having things stolen from them.

0:11:34.497 --> 0:11:38.137
<v Speaker 1>But people like Nancy Pelosi or the police, you can't

0:11:38.177 --> 0:11:41.697
<v Speaker 1>trust the police from her mansion. She's such a fraud.

0:11:42.617 --> 0:11:45.817
<v Speaker 1>CNN anchors, Oh BLM. I really support BLM and I

0:11:45.857 --> 0:11:48.377
<v Speaker 1>live in a seven million dollars co op in New

0:11:48.457 --> 0:11:54.097
<v Speaker 1>York City, But oh BLM, such frauds. They're such frauds.

0:11:54.137 --> 0:11:56.497
<v Speaker 1>Can't we all see it? And may Or Adams even

0:11:56.537 --> 0:11:58.817
<v Speaker 1>he's got to be tired of these idiots. He's saying

0:11:58.857 --> 0:12:01.657
<v Speaker 1>the right things right now. You see. I always tell

0:12:01.697 --> 0:12:03.857
<v Speaker 1>you this, I give credit where it's due. Adams has

0:12:03.897 --> 0:12:05.777
<v Speaker 1>not done a good job so far in terms of

0:12:05.817 --> 0:12:10.417
<v Speaker 1>the numbers, but he is saying the right things now.

0:12:10.897 --> 0:12:13.657
<v Speaker 1>And we need other Democrats to say the right things

0:12:13.697 --> 0:12:17.017
<v Speaker 1>and follow it with action. Hopefully Adams follows it with action.

0:12:17.377 --> 0:12:20.457
<v Speaker 1>Is this would be major, all right? And there was

0:12:20.457 --> 0:12:24.097
<v Speaker 1>the Gain of function hearings up on Capitol Hill just

0:12:24.137 --> 0:12:26.577
<v Speaker 1>a couple of minutes on this. I mean, here's MIT

0:12:26.697 --> 0:12:30.617
<v Speaker 1>professor Kevin, doctor Kevin s Velt, MT is pretty serious

0:12:30.657 --> 0:12:34.577
<v Speaker 1>place on gain of function studies and the security risks

0:12:34.577 --> 0:12:37.657
<v Speaker 1>from them. The question is, if they were not intending

0:12:37.697 --> 0:12:41.897
<v Speaker 1>to determine whether a novel recombinant event between these coronaviruses

0:12:42.337 --> 0:12:45.417
<v Speaker 1>could lead to something that might kill millions of people,

0:12:46.017 --> 0:12:48.257
<v Speaker 1>then why were they doing it? If there was no

0:12:48.337 --> 0:12:50.057
<v Speaker 1>chance that it would come up with a result that

0:12:50.137 --> 0:12:53.177
<v Speaker 1>looked like it was more dangerous, what's the point? What's

0:12:53.177 --> 0:12:58.097
<v Speaker 1>the scientific hypothesis? So again, whatever you call it, what

0:12:58.137 --> 0:13:02.457
<v Speaker 1>they were trying to do was identify a biological agent

0:13:03.097 --> 0:13:06.857
<v Speaker 1>that has a good chance of being able to kill

0:13:06.897 --> 0:13:10.497
<v Speaker 1>millions of people if released. And they shared to the

0:13:10.577 --> 0:13:13.257
<v Speaker 1>description of what they did, and they shared the genome

0:13:13.257 --> 0:13:16.017
<v Speaker 1>sequence because they thought that this would make us safer,

0:13:16.457 --> 0:13:19.737
<v Speaker 1>because they think that knowing which viruses in nature might

0:13:19.817 --> 0:13:23.337
<v Speaker 1>cause pandemics makes us safer. They did not consider the

0:13:23.377 --> 0:13:27.937
<v Speaker 1>security risks. Seems like kind of a big deal, doesn't it.

0:13:29.217 --> 0:13:32.017
<v Speaker 1>They figured, hey, let's just mess around with a virus

0:13:32.377 --> 0:13:35.257
<v Speaker 1>and gain a function research at places like the Wuhan

0:13:35.377 --> 0:13:40.137
<v Speaker 1>Institute of Virology with American taxpayer funding in part, not

0:13:40.217 --> 0:13:44.657
<v Speaker 1>all of it, but in part. They just figured, well,

0:13:44.657 --> 0:13:46.577
<v Speaker 1>this will be a good thing for science to know.

0:13:46.777 --> 0:13:48.617
<v Speaker 1>So they started tinkering with viruses to see if they

0:13:48.617 --> 0:13:50.057
<v Speaker 1>can make them more dangerous so then they can put

0:13:50.057 --> 0:13:53.817
<v Speaker 1>them more dangerous virus information out there so that we

0:13:53.817 --> 0:13:57.057
<v Speaker 1>would be prepared in advance. Well, what happens if the

0:13:57.097 --> 0:14:01.897
<v Speaker 1>virus gets out? Though? What happens if you create the problem?

0:14:01.937 --> 0:14:06.297
<v Speaker 1>You think you're averting by getting ahead of it? Yeah,

0:14:06.857 --> 0:14:12.697
<v Speaker 1>pretty serious. This MIT professor went on here play clip two.

0:14:12.817 --> 0:14:17.537
<v Speaker 1>And it's worth noting that both USAID and NIH funded

0:14:17.857 --> 0:14:22.857
<v Speaker 1>those particular coronavirus chimera studies. USAID, to my understanding, has

0:14:22.897 --> 0:14:26.857
<v Speaker 1>since disavowed those chimeric recommindation studies and announced that they

0:14:26.857 --> 0:14:31.337
<v Speaker 1>will only focus on finding natural pandemic capable viruses, which

0:14:31.377 --> 0:14:34.537
<v Speaker 1>is at least a step in the right direction. But again,

0:14:35.137 --> 0:14:38.177
<v Speaker 1>I would call that gain a function. Another reasonable scientists

0:14:38.217 --> 0:14:40.617
<v Speaker 1>would say, no, that's not gain a function, because the

0:14:40.697 --> 0:14:44.697
<v Speaker 1>term is so ill defined. Yeah, because the term is

0:14:44.697 --> 0:14:46.857
<v Speaker 1>ill defined. Do you think maybe the bureaucracy was playing

0:14:47.737 --> 0:14:51.737
<v Speaker 1>playing games here? I do. Do you think they decided

0:14:51.777 --> 0:14:55.737
<v Speaker 1>they could get away with this? I do. Here's just

0:14:55.777 --> 0:14:59.057
<v Speaker 1>one more on the possibility of these becoming WMDs. Here's

0:14:59.097 --> 0:15:04.257
<v Speaker 1>Rutger's professor Ebright talking to Josh Holley about gain of

0:15:04.337 --> 0:15:06.697
<v Speaker 1>function research of the kind that you know doctor Fauci

0:15:06.817 --> 0:15:10.977
<v Speaker 1>through cutouts was helping to fund in China function research

0:15:11.177 --> 0:15:13.897
<v Speaker 1>and bioweapons. What's the connection there? I mean, what role

0:15:13.937 --> 0:15:16.697
<v Speaker 1>does gain a function play? As I mentioned, there are

0:15:16.697 --> 0:15:21.417
<v Speaker 1>no civilian practical applications that are immense bioweapons practical applications,

0:15:21.977 --> 0:15:25.937
<v Speaker 1>as you've heard from doctor Spelt. The potential pandemic pathogens

0:15:25.977 --> 0:15:30.257
<v Speaker 1>that can emerge from such studies are potential weapons of

0:15:30.257 --> 0:15:36.577
<v Speaker 1>mass destruction, inexpensive, accessible, easily distributed weapons of mass destruction,

0:15:38.177 --> 0:15:41.977
<v Speaker 1>potential WMDs, the kind that would hit all over the

0:15:42.017 --> 0:15:45.297
<v Speaker 1>world and kill hundreds of thousands, if not millions of people.

0:15:46.217 --> 0:15:48.057
<v Speaker 1>Maybe we should have had more of a discussion about

0:15:48.057 --> 0:15:50.737
<v Speaker 1>whether this should be something that anyone, anywhere, in any

0:15:50.777 --> 0:15:54.017
<v Speaker 1>facility should be engaged in as research. A lot of

0:15:54.017 --> 0:15:56.697
<v Speaker 1>people look in this though, and saying maybe, at least

0:15:56.697 --> 0:16:00.417
<v Speaker 1>in this instance, it's too late. Thanks for rolling with team.

0:16:00.417 --> 0:16:02.057
