1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:01,320 Speaker 1: The last couple of hours of the show, there's going 2 00:00:01,360 --> 00:00:03,480 Speaker 1: to be a lot about the border, because you know what, 3 00:00:03,720 --> 00:00:05,800 Speaker 1: most of the media is not paying much attention to it. 4 00:00:05,800 --> 00:00:08,960 Speaker 1: It's gotten the attention of some this week because the 5 00:00:09,080 --> 00:00:13,480 Speaker 1: numbers of migrants at our US border, particularly Texas and Arizona, 6 00:00:14,040 --> 00:00:17,759 Speaker 1: is unbelievable, and of course it's played down by a 7 00:00:17,760 --> 00:00:21,040 Speaker 1: lot of the media. I'll talk about an asylum poll 8 00:00:21,120 --> 00:00:24,840 Speaker 1: the El Segundo Times put out today, which is really laughable, 9 00:00:24,880 --> 00:00:27,080 Speaker 1: but it shows you that people just do not grasp 10 00:00:27,600 --> 00:00:30,680 Speaker 1: what's really going on. We'll also be talking to Brandon 11 00:00:30,800 --> 00:00:34,360 Speaker 1: Judd with a National Border Patrol Council. He's the president, 12 00:00:34,440 --> 00:00:38,080 Speaker 1: that's the union for Border Patrol Agents. But we'll begin 13 00:00:38,159 --> 00:00:42,040 Speaker 1: this hour with Mark Koryon, executive director of the Center 14 00:00:42,080 --> 00:00:45,680 Speaker 1: for Immigration Studies, who can't think of anybody else who 15 00:00:45,760 --> 00:00:48,959 Speaker 1: explains this well and knows more about what's going on 16 00:00:49,400 --> 00:00:51,920 Speaker 1: whether our out of control US border, and in a 17 00:00:51,960 --> 00:00:55,440 Speaker 1: recent editorial he said, this is pretty much the first 18 00:00:55,480 --> 00:01:01,000 Speaker 1: administration that just doesn't care that there's this people flooding 19 00:01:01,000 --> 00:01:03,560 Speaker 1: into the country. Let's get Mark back on. 20 00:01:03,720 --> 00:01:03,960 Speaker 2: Mark. 21 00:01:05,240 --> 00:01:08,959 Speaker 3: Yeah, how are you doing good? How are you okay? Yeah? 22 00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:12,360 Speaker 1: I was just reading your recent editorial, and of course 23 00:01:12,400 --> 00:01:14,720 Speaker 1: it was all based on the fact that when old 24 00:01:14,800 --> 00:01:17,119 Speaker 1: Joe Biden was in Arizona recently and he was asked 25 00:01:17,120 --> 00:01:18,840 Speaker 1: about the border, are you going to go there? I 26 00:01:18,920 --> 00:01:23,679 Speaker 1: know there are more important things going on, really, And 27 00:01:23,720 --> 00:01:26,840 Speaker 1: then of course with Title forty two expiring, and I said, yesterday, 28 00:01:26,880 --> 00:01:29,080 Speaker 1: and I'm sure you agree most Americans don't even know 29 00:01:29,080 --> 00:01:32,040 Speaker 1: what that is. But this is leading to this current 30 00:01:32,080 --> 00:01:35,040 Speaker 1: crush at the border as people are looking forward to 31 00:01:35,080 --> 00:01:37,880 Speaker 1: it expiring and getting entry into the United States for 32 00:01:37,920 --> 00:01:41,800 Speaker 1: asylum requests. What's your take on all this beginning with 33 00:01:41,840 --> 00:01:43,600 Speaker 1: Biden's more important things going on? 34 00:01:45,040 --> 00:01:48,680 Speaker 3: Well, I mean that it was really a telling moment 35 00:01:49,320 --> 00:01:53,080 Speaker 3: and it it really does show how it's not so 36 00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:57,960 Speaker 3: much that the people running immigration in this administration don't 37 00:01:58,160 --> 00:02:01,520 Speaker 3: care in some sort of, I don't know, dismissive sense. 38 00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:06,080 Speaker 3: They don't believe that the American people have the right 39 00:02:06,200 --> 00:02:09,320 Speaker 3: to keep anybody out. In other words, they think immigration 40 00:02:09,560 --> 00:02:14,120 Speaker 3: law itself is like Jim Crow, and if the law 41 00:02:14,280 --> 00:02:17,560 Speaker 3: is requiring them to do something, they consider it to 42 00:02:17,600 --> 00:02:22,560 Speaker 3: be racist in itself, and so defying the law, ignoring 43 00:02:22,600 --> 00:02:26,640 Speaker 3: the law is actually noble in their view. So in 44 00:02:26,639 --> 00:02:29,720 Speaker 3: other words, it's not just they don't care or they're 45 00:02:29,760 --> 00:02:34,200 Speaker 3: not very good at it. They are hostile to the 46 00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:38,920 Speaker 3: idea of keeping people out of the United States. And 47 00:02:38,960 --> 00:02:40,440 Speaker 3: that's just really disturbing. 48 00:02:40,720 --> 00:02:43,720 Speaker 1: I mean, Joe Biden's been in politics for like fifty years, 49 00:02:43,760 --> 00:02:46,080 Speaker 1: and I can remember even back when Clinton was president 50 00:02:46,120 --> 00:02:48,760 Speaker 1: a little bit with Obama that they would often quote 51 00:02:48,800 --> 00:02:50,639 Speaker 1: say the right things like oh, we've got to secure 52 00:02:50,680 --> 00:02:52,720 Speaker 1: the border, right, and people should not come into the 53 00:02:52,760 --> 00:02:55,600 Speaker 1: country illegally. You're saying that this has changed now and 54 00:02:55,639 --> 00:02:58,680 Speaker 1: there is a definite philosophy in the Biden administration all 55 00:02:58,680 --> 00:03:00,359 Speaker 1: the way up to the top, that it should be 56 00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:02,840 Speaker 1: an open border situation, that we kind of owe this to. 57 00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:08,200 Speaker 3: The world absolutely. Now, you're right Trump, I mean, not Trump, 58 00:03:08,200 --> 00:03:11,320 Speaker 3: but Biden had voted for the Secure Fence Act in 59 00:03:11,360 --> 00:03:13,240 Speaker 3: the past, all kinds of things. But I mean, he's 60 00:03:13,800 --> 00:03:16,560 Speaker 3: you know, his principles. It's one of those things like 61 00:03:16,600 --> 00:03:18,360 Speaker 3: I have principles. If they don't like them, I'll come 62 00:03:18,400 --> 00:03:19,920 Speaker 3: up with other ones, you know what I mean. And 63 00:03:21,160 --> 00:03:24,519 Speaker 3: the Democratic Party, though, which is what he's following, has 64 00:03:24,760 --> 00:03:29,880 Speaker 3: moved consistently to the left on immigration even before Trump. 65 00:03:30,200 --> 00:03:32,839 Speaker 3: But I think Trump being president really ramped it up. 66 00:03:32,919 --> 00:03:35,680 Speaker 3: So you know the I mean, if Trump said it's 67 00:03:35,720 --> 00:03:37,680 Speaker 3: good to comb your hair, you know, a lot of 68 00:03:37,680 --> 00:03:40,400 Speaker 3: people on the left would stop doing it. Right, And 69 00:03:40,480 --> 00:03:44,000 Speaker 3: it's similar with immigration. Immigration has sort of become trumpified 70 00:03:44,720 --> 00:03:48,680 Speaker 3: in the eyes of many top Democrats, and therefore anything 71 00:03:49,240 --> 00:03:53,760 Speaker 3: that Trump would have done has to by definition be bad. 72 00:03:54,400 --> 00:03:57,520 Speaker 3: And they just kind of tell themselves, well, it'll all 73 00:03:57,600 --> 00:04:02,160 Speaker 3: work out. It'll be fine, no, won't his people. You know, 74 00:04:02,320 --> 00:04:06,040 Speaker 3: when Biden's people were taking over from Trump's people during 75 00:04:06,080 --> 00:04:09,920 Speaker 3: the transition, they were told, look, if you do these things, 76 00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:12,520 Speaker 3: it's going to be bad. This is what's going to happen. 77 00:04:12,760 --> 00:04:15,800 Speaker 3: And they said, ha, that's nonsense. All of those things have. 78 00:04:15,800 --> 00:04:20,200 Speaker 1: Happened, but you're making it sound like that's fine with them. 79 00:04:20,320 --> 00:04:22,240 Speaker 1: They kind of understood these things were going to happen. 80 00:04:22,279 --> 00:04:25,320 Speaker 1: They just wanted to say to the press it's not 81 00:04:25,320 --> 00:04:27,520 Speaker 1: going to be bad, but it is bad. And then 82 00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:29,520 Speaker 1: he continue to see things like the border is secure. 83 00:04:29,960 --> 00:04:33,359 Speaker 1: They continue to put us into opposite land. When is 84 00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:35,880 Speaker 1: this going to dawn on the American people in bigger 85 00:04:35,960 --> 00:04:40,800 Speaker 1: numbers that this is a real burden. I'm sure Mark 86 00:04:40,839 --> 00:04:43,680 Speaker 1: you've seen polls over the years about how many people 87 00:04:43,720 --> 00:04:45,480 Speaker 1: around the world would love to come to the United 88 00:04:45,520 --> 00:04:48,240 Speaker 1: States if it's much easier to do that. The numbers 89 00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:49,080 Speaker 1: are mind boggling. 90 00:04:49,920 --> 00:04:53,479 Speaker 3: Yeah, hundreds of millions easily would come if they could. 91 00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:56,400 Speaker 3: And we're starting to see it because word is getting out. 92 00:04:57,200 --> 00:04:59,760 Speaker 3: You know, most illegal immigration at the Mexican border isn't 93 00:04:59,760 --> 00:05:02,599 Speaker 3: that sans anymore. There's not a lot of Mexicans. But 94 00:05:03,120 --> 00:05:05,599 Speaker 3: you know, it's not even just Central Americans anymore. We're 95 00:05:05,600 --> 00:05:08,719 Speaker 3: getting people from the Caribbean and South America, and now 96 00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:11,560 Speaker 3: more and more from Africa and the Middle East. We're 97 00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:15,080 Speaker 3: getting from Uzbekistan and Albania. They're coming from everywhere because 98 00:05:15,160 --> 00:05:19,279 Speaker 3: word is spreading, and why wouldn't they come. I mean, basically, 99 00:05:19,720 --> 00:05:22,080 Speaker 3: you know they're figuring. Look, eventually, the gring guys are 100 00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:24,280 Speaker 3: going to wake up, so let's get in get while 101 00:05:24,279 --> 00:05:29,680 Speaker 3: they're getting's good. And that's why Biden, since he took office, 102 00:05:29,720 --> 00:05:33,080 Speaker 3: so it's less than two years, he has actually released 103 00:05:33,200 --> 00:05:35,800 Speaker 3: more than one and a half million illegal aliens into 104 00:05:35,839 --> 00:05:38,600 Speaker 3: the United States. The numbers you hear, some of them 105 00:05:38,600 --> 00:05:40,839 Speaker 3: are higher, but those are arrest numbers, and some of 106 00:05:40,839 --> 00:05:43,840 Speaker 3: those people are bounced back tried a couple of times, 107 00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:46,360 Speaker 3: that kind of thing. But the number that really matters 108 00:05:46,400 --> 00:05:49,160 Speaker 3: is he is let into the country one and a 109 00:05:49,200 --> 00:05:52,680 Speaker 3: half million at least illegal immigrants, in addition to people 110 00:05:52,680 --> 00:05:56,200 Speaker 3: who got by got away because the border patrol was preoccupied, 111 00:05:56,680 --> 00:05:59,240 Speaker 3: and none of those people are leaving. Even if they 112 00:05:59,320 --> 00:06:01,520 Speaker 3: lose their assign island case, if they ever show up 113 00:06:01,520 --> 00:06:04,359 Speaker 3: for a hearing, whatever, it doesn't matter because nobody's going 114 00:06:04,440 --> 00:06:06,400 Speaker 3: to look for them. So they're all here permanently, and 115 00:06:06,720 --> 00:06:09,280 Speaker 3: we're gonna end up, you know here in arguments a 116 00:06:09,320 --> 00:06:10,840 Speaker 3: couple of years from now saying well, we have to 117 00:06:10,880 --> 00:06:11,960 Speaker 3: amnesty all of them too. 118 00:06:13,560 --> 00:06:15,640 Speaker 1: And when are the American people going to wake up 119 00:06:15,640 --> 00:06:18,000 Speaker 1: when they start to see the financial burden of all 120 00:06:18,080 --> 00:06:19,640 Speaker 1: this they start to see. 121 00:06:19,600 --> 00:06:22,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know. It's a good question. You know. 122 00:06:22,680 --> 00:06:27,320 Speaker 3: One of the things this border disaster is doing is 123 00:06:27,480 --> 00:06:30,800 Speaker 3: preventing the border patrol from patrolling the border, because you know, 124 00:06:30,839 --> 00:06:33,360 Speaker 3: when two three, four hundred people come across in one 125 00:06:33,400 --> 00:06:37,320 Speaker 3: place at one time, cartels arrange that the rest of 126 00:06:37,360 --> 00:06:39,960 Speaker 3: the border is stripped of agents. They all have to 127 00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:43,239 Speaker 3: go and deal with that. Well, cartels aren't sitting around 128 00:06:43,920 --> 00:06:46,160 Speaker 3: waiting for the agents to come back. They're using that 129 00:06:46,279 --> 00:06:51,400 Speaker 3: opportunity to get stuff across, whether it's poison, fentanyl stuff, 130 00:06:51,520 --> 00:06:55,560 Speaker 3: whether it's criminals, or whether it's terrorists. And I'm just 131 00:06:55,640 --> 00:07:00,000 Speaker 3: afraid that something's going to have to blow up before 132 00:07:00,320 --> 00:07:05,280 Speaker 3: enough people pay attention to this and before the democratic 133 00:07:05,320 --> 00:07:08,600 Speaker 3: political class takes this seriously. I hope that's not the case, 134 00:07:08,640 --> 00:07:09,600 Speaker 3: but I'm afraid it is. 135 00:07:10,560 --> 00:07:12,840 Speaker 1: And it's clear that in other parts of the world, 136 00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:17,160 Speaker 1: Central America, South America, they really do follow our policies. 137 00:07:17,480 --> 00:07:19,280 Speaker 1: The fact that all these people are already here in 138 00:07:19,320 --> 00:07:23,440 Speaker 1: title forty two hasn't technically expired yet tells me that 139 00:07:23,800 --> 00:07:26,160 Speaker 1: word travels fast, and I would imagine the smugglers have 140 00:07:26,200 --> 00:07:26,920 Speaker 1: a lot to do with that. 141 00:07:27,760 --> 00:07:30,720 Speaker 3: Oh mean, word travels as fast as a cell phone call. 142 00:07:31,480 --> 00:07:34,040 Speaker 3: And the fact is not just the smugglers, certainly, but 143 00:07:34,120 --> 00:07:37,760 Speaker 3: even regular people who want to immigrate here illegally. They 144 00:07:37,800 --> 00:07:39,960 Speaker 3: know more about immigration policy than I do in a 145 00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:42,480 Speaker 3: lot of cases, because this is you know, this is 146 00:07:42,520 --> 00:07:46,120 Speaker 3: their bread and butter, and so you know, that's why 147 00:07:46,640 --> 00:07:49,480 Speaker 3: when the Vice President went down remember to Guatemala and 148 00:07:49,520 --> 00:07:51,600 Speaker 3: said do not come, and she said it twice, so 149 00:07:51,640 --> 00:07:55,960 Speaker 3: that must mean she was serious. It doesn't make any 150 00:07:55,960 --> 00:07:59,520 Speaker 3: difference because the same people who are watching TV and 151 00:07:59,600 --> 00:08:02,840 Speaker 3: hearing say that in Guatemala, then they get a call 152 00:08:02,880 --> 00:08:05,920 Speaker 3: in their cell phone from their uncle or their cousin 153 00:08:06,040 --> 00:08:08,160 Speaker 3: who just got let go by the border patrol, and 154 00:08:08,160 --> 00:08:10,720 Speaker 3: they're like, okay, well, you know that's the proof into 155 00:08:10,760 --> 00:08:13,920 Speaker 3: the pudding. The politicians can say anything they want, but 156 00:08:14,040 --> 00:08:16,520 Speaker 3: I guess their politicians lie just like ours do. So 157 00:08:17,320 --> 00:08:20,080 Speaker 3: if you know, if cousin Jose just got let go 158 00:08:20,200 --> 00:08:23,280 Speaker 3: and it's on the bus to get to Chicago, well 159 00:08:23,280 --> 00:08:24,680 Speaker 3: then I'm going to give it a try too. 160 00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:27,360 Speaker 1: And then they tell all their neighbors and it makes 161 00:08:27,480 --> 00:08:30,880 Speaker 1: way around the entire town village quickly. 162 00:08:30,840 --> 00:08:34,360 Speaker 3: Do you think country? And then continents, yes, everybody knows 163 00:08:34,360 --> 00:08:34,760 Speaker 3: about it. 164 00:08:34,800 --> 00:08:37,520 Speaker 1: Now do you think the Biden administration will do anything 165 00:08:37,520 --> 00:08:39,920 Speaker 1: in the coming weeks with the fact that Title forty 166 00:08:39,920 --> 00:08:41,800 Speaker 1: two has expired to they I heard something about that 167 00:08:41,840 --> 00:08:44,440 Speaker 1: I might suspend asylum for a couple of months. 168 00:08:45,360 --> 00:08:49,080 Speaker 3: They may they put out a memo explaining what they're 169 00:08:49,080 --> 00:08:52,720 Speaker 3: going to do. And I can see potentially in like 170 00:08:52,880 --> 00:08:58,400 Speaker 3: emergency situation emergency, meaning it's a political pr emergency for them, 171 00:08:58,440 --> 00:09:02,200 Speaker 3: they might do something like that. But their real plan 172 00:09:02,640 --> 00:09:04,880 Speaker 3: that they laid out in this memo they released this 173 00:09:04,960 --> 00:09:09,920 Speaker 3: week is basically to first of all, spend more money 174 00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:14,240 Speaker 3: so they can process people more quickly into the United States, 175 00:09:14,280 --> 00:09:16,480 Speaker 3: which is kind of not the point, not what people 176 00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:18,720 Speaker 3: imagine they're going to be doing. But the other thing, 177 00:09:19,200 --> 00:09:23,400 Speaker 3: and we actually reported on this first, they've now developed 178 00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:26,720 Speaker 3: a program they started a couple months ago to pre 179 00:09:27,200 --> 00:09:30,440 Speaker 3: legalize people before they ever get to the border. They're 180 00:09:30,440 --> 00:09:34,840 Speaker 3: working with Mexican authorities and they're you know, they're logging 181 00:09:34,920 --> 00:09:39,440 Speaker 3: onto a you know, DHS website, doing all this paperwork, 182 00:09:39,480 --> 00:09:41,600 Speaker 3: all that stuff, and then they escort them to the 183 00:09:41,640 --> 00:09:44,760 Speaker 3: border and hand them over to our people who then 184 00:09:44,840 --> 00:09:47,480 Speaker 3: let them go into the United States. And the important 185 00:09:47,480 --> 00:09:52,040 Speaker 3: thing there is they don't come up in the arrest statistics, 186 00:09:52,360 --> 00:09:56,000 Speaker 3: so the monthly statistics about how bad the border is. Hey, 187 00:09:56,000 --> 00:09:58,559 Speaker 3: they're not in there because they didn't illegally cross the border. 188 00:09:58,600 --> 00:10:00,960 Speaker 3: So what's your problem. It's all lead you know, in 189 00:10:01,080 --> 00:10:04,520 Speaker 3: quotation marks legal, it's not really are these people screamed? 190 00:10:04,640 --> 00:10:07,040 Speaker 1: Are they screamed or is there any effort to made 191 00:10:07,040 --> 00:10:08,000 Speaker 1: to see how they are? 192 00:10:08,520 --> 00:10:11,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, supposedly, you know, they have to have some story 193 00:10:11,840 --> 00:10:14,520 Speaker 3: of how bad things are. And so there's American law 194 00:10:14,559 --> 00:10:18,240 Speaker 3: students literally who go down there in advocacy groups and 195 00:10:18,720 --> 00:10:22,160 Speaker 3: they call up their hometown police department and say, hey, please, 196 00:10:22,200 --> 00:10:24,880 Speaker 3: can you fill out this form about how terrible you 197 00:10:25,000 --> 00:10:27,280 Speaker 3: treated them? And we're going to use that as evidence. 198 00:10:27,400 --> 00:10:31,600 Speaker 3: And they have psychologists who they talk to and try 199 00:10:31,640 --> 00:10:37,160 Speaker 3: to tease out the deeply buried stories of trauma that 200 00:10:37,200 --> 00:10:40,640 Speaker 3: they've suppressed, and then they write that up and that 201 00:10:40,800 --> 00:10:44,839 Speaker 3: then becomes proof and they're let into the United States. 202 00:10:44,880 --> 00:10:45,760 Speaker 3: It's unbelievable. 203 00:10:46,480 --> 00:10:48,000 Speaker 1: Mark, before you go, I got to ask you because 204 00:10:48,040 --> 00:10:49,840 Speaker 1: you brought this up one time. When you want our show, 205 00:10:50,040 --> 00:10:54,200 Speaker 1: you still go on these alternative media broadcast stations where 206 00:10:54,200 --> 00:10:56,080 Speaker 1: they refer to you as like some sort of racist 207 00:10:56,160 --> 00:10:58,640 Speaker 1: xenophobe when you have these debates or you've given up 208 00:10:58,679 --> 00:10:59,120 Speaker 1: on that. 209 00:10:59,800 --> 00:11:01,480 Speaker 3: Well, I mean, I don't know. If they invite me, 210 00:11:01,520 --> 00:11:03,200 Speaker 3: I'll go any place. I mean I do. I have 211 00:11:03,360 --> 00:11:06,680 Speaker 3: debated some open borders folks at a couple of universities recently. 212 00:11:07,320 --> 00:11:10,160 Speaker 3: I mean, yeah, yeah, I mean you anyway, so it 213 00:11:10,240 --> 00:11:13,880 Speaker 3: was I think it didn't go well for them, But no, 214 00:11:14,000 --> 00:11:16,840 Speaker 3: I'll go on. I'll go on any anybody who wants 215 00:11:16,880 --> 00:11:19,880 Speaker 3: to anybody who will have me on, I'll go on 216 00:11:19,920 --> 00:11:20,319 Speaker 3: this show. 217 00:11:21,040 --> 00:11:21,719 Speaker 1: Well, thank you. 218 00:11:21,720 --> 00:11:22,560 Speaker 3: So on your show. 219 00:11:22,640 --> 00:11:26,120 Speaker 1: You know yeah, well you know well, because we know 220 00:11:26,280 --> 00:11:27,960 Speaker 1: you come with the facts and you come with all 221 00:11:27,960 --> 00:11:30,120 Speaker 1: of the information. Thank you for talking to me again. 222 00:11:30,160 --> 00:11:30,920 Speaker 1: I appreciate it. 223 00:11:31,600 --> 00:11:33,679 Speaker 3: Thank you. Merry Christmas to you you too. 224 00:11:33,559 --> 00:11:37,760 Speaker 1: Marco Corey and Executive director of the Center for Immigration Studies. 225 00:11:38,040 --> 00:11:40,520 Speaker 1: We will have Brandon Judd from the Border Patrol Council 226 00:11:40,920 --> 00:11:44,160 Speaker 1: in the five o'clock hour. This is of course about 227 00:11:44,200 --> 00:11:45,480 Speaker 1: the surge at the border, which a lot of the 228 00:11:45,480 --> 00:11:47,480 Speaker 1: media is not covering. A lot of America doesn't seem 229 00:11:47,520 --> 00:11:49,560 Speaker 1: to care because they're not getting any news on it. 230 00:11:49,559 --> 00:11:53,200 Speaker 1: It's not showing up on social media Instagram or Facebook. 231 00:11:53,240 --> 00:11:56,240 Speaker 1: I guess when I come back, the als have times, 232 00:11:56,240 --> 00:11:58,640 Speaker 1: which is also in that parallel universe. I did a 233 00:11:58,640 --> 00:12:01,680 Speaker 1: poll on asylum and it looks like most people still 234 00:12:01,880 --> 00:12:05,040 Speaker 1: support asylum. But there's a lot more to it. I'll explain. 235 00:12:05,120 --> 00:12:09,520 Speaker 1: Johnny KENKFI AM six forty Live Everywhere, the iHeartRadio app 236 00:12:09,640 --> 00:12:15,360 Speaker 1: in one hour the last Moistline Calls of twenty twenty two. 237 00:12:15,520 --> 00:12:17,559 Speaker 1: There'll be two parts, so the one in one hour 238 00:12:17,600 --> 00:12:20,080 Speaker 1: will be part one. Part two is coming away near 239 00:12:20,120 --> 00:12:22,160 Speaker 1: the end of the hour. This is it. We're going 240 00:12:22,200 --> 00:12:25,080 Speaker 1: to pack up the moistline for twenty twenty two and 241 00:12:25,160 --> 00:12:28,520 Speaker 1: look forward to twenty twenty three. After the News at 242 00:12:28,559 --> 00:12:32,880 Speaker 1: four thirty Steve Gregory will be my guest. LAPD announced 243 00:12:32,880 --> 00:12:36,240 Speaker 1: big bus with the follow home robberies. They believe this 244 00:12:36,280 --> 00:12:39,560 Speaker 1: has been effective in cutting back the number of these 245 00:12:39,600 --> 00:12:41,800 Speaker 1: and we haven't quite heard many of these stories the 246 00:12:41,880 --> 00:12:44,640 Speaker 1: last couple of months, as we were hearing earlier in 247 00:12:44,679 --> 00:12:46,439 Speaker 1: the year, and then going back to a year ago 248 00:12:46,640 --> 00:12:50,400 Speaker 1: the follow home robbery chaos that was going on, so 249 00:12:50,960 --> 00:12:54,079 Speaker 1: he has all the details of that. We were just 250 00:12:54,120 --> 00:12:56,840 Speaker 1: talking to Mark Corean the Center for Immigration Studies about 251 00:12:56,880 --> 00:12:59,280 Speaker 1: the surge at the border, and you heard him say it. 252 00:13:00,760 --> 00:13:03,480 Speaker 1: This is an open border crowd maybe for the first 253 00:13:03,520 --> 00:13:07,120 Speaker 1: time in the history of a presidential administration. Whether or 254 00:13:07,120 --> 00:13:10,600 Speaker 1: not Biden's calling the shots, it's unlikely, but he's got 255 00:13:10,640 --> 00:13:15,240 Speaker 1: the Mayorcis puppet head heading up homeland security and they 256 00:13:15,280 --> 00:13:18,280 Speaker 1: have no intention of stopping the flow, which reached over 257 00:13:18,320 --> 00:13:21,679 Speaker 1: two million migrants in the last fiscal year. And what's 258 00:13:21,720 --> 00:13:24,080 Speaker 1: going on at the border just in the last month 259 00:13:24,200 --> 00:13:26,880 Speaker 1: or so over the end of this title fourteen. And 260 00:13:26,880 --> 00:13:30,120 Speaker 1: by the way, I judge today said that Biden can't 261 00:13:30,360 --> 00:13:33,959 Speaker 1: end the remain in Mexico policy. That's another leftover from 262 00:13:34,040 --> 00:13:37,400 Speaker 1: the Trump administration. And I mentioned that yesterday. Mark agreed 263 00:13:37,480 --> 00:13:40,320 Speaker 1: that whatever Trump did, we just have to reverse. And 264 00:13:40,360 --> 00:13:44,240 Speaker 1: with immigration, this is dangerous, this is we're gonna be overwhelmed. 265 00:13:45,280 --> 00:13:49,360 Speaker 1: The Elsigunda Times teamed up with you Gov. To do 266 00:13:49,400 --> 00:13:54,079 Speaker 1: a poll about how Americans feel about asylum. Okay, here's 267 00:13:54,120 --> 00:14:00,000 Speaker 1: the question, should the US offer asylum across parties? More 268 00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:02,760 Speaker 1: our Americans say the US should continue to offer asylum 269 00:14:02,920 --> 00:14:08,960 Speaker 1: to people fleeing persecution. Well, the response was yes, Democrats 270 00:14:08,960 --> 00:14:12,480 Speaker 1: seventy one percent, Republicans more split forty six yes, thirty 271 00:14:12,480 --> 00:14:17,560 Speaker 1: eight no, Independents fifty five twenty two yes. All right, 272 00:14:17,640 --> 00:14:22,360 Speaker 1: so that's the basic question. The idea behind asylum is 273 00:14:22,400 --> 00:14:26,640 Speaker 1: that people who are being persecuted by the government should 274 00:14:26,640 --> 00:14:29,840 Speaker 1: flee the country because then we will welcome them in 275 00:14:30,000 --> 00:14:33,320 Speaker 1: because their government might kill them or otherwise punish them. 276 00:14:33,600 --> 00:14:36,680 Speaker 1: All right, fair enough, then we get those to the 277 00:14:36,720 --> 00:14:42,800 Speaker 1: next question, who deserves asylum? People were asked how many 278 00:14:42,840 --> 00:14:47,040 Speaker 1: of those currently seeking asylum actually deserve it? And as 279 00:14:47,080 --> 00:14:50,160 Speaker 1: we talked about many times on the show, and even 280 00:14:50,160 --> 00:14:52,720 Speaker 1: Obama said this, most people to show up at the 281 00:14:52,720 --> 00:14:57,480 Speaker 1: border requesting asylum are not entitled to it because they 282 00:14:57,480 --> 00:15:00,720 Speaker 1: don't meet the definition of actually being persecuted in their country. 283 00:15:01,040 --> 00:15:04,400 Speaker 1: And that's largely by the government. If the government is 284 00:15:04,480 --> 00:15:06,920 Speaker 1: rounding up people who are speaking out against the president 285 00:15:07,200 --> 00:15:10,040 Speaker 1: or the council or whatever, and they're putting you in 286 00:15:10,120 --> 00:15:13,400 Speaker 1: jail and they're torturing you, yeah, that's a person that 287 00:15:13,520 --> 00:15:17,080 Speaker 1: qualifies for asylum, right. Or in the case of some 288 00:15:17,120 --> 00:15:22,000 Speaker 1: people are LGBTQ who are being persecuted because of that, 289 00:15:22,000 --> 00:15:24,840 Speaker 1: that's grounds for asylum. But a lot of people are 290 00:15:24,880 --> 00:15:28,160 Speaker 1: coming here because they're poor and they can't get jobs 291 00:15:28,160 --> 00:15:29,800 Speaker 1: in their home country, or they don't like the crime 292 00:15:29,840 --> 00:15:33,120 Speaker 1: in their neighborhood. That doesn't qualify you. Although I'm sure 293 00:15:33,320 --> 00:15:35,360 Speaker 1: the Biden administration has flowing right. I mean, you heard 294 00:15:35,440 --> 00:15:38,800 Speaker 1: Mark or Corean say that they're being given stories to 295 00:15:38,920 --> 00:15:44,440 Speaker 1: say that would hopefully meet the definition the persecution. So 296 00:15:44,560 --> 00:15:48,000 Speaker 1: in this poll, huh, forty eight percent of Democrats said 297 00:15:48,080 --> 00:15:52,760 Speaker 1: most or all of those requesting asylum deserve it, but 298 00:15:52,880 --> 00:15:56,320 Speaker 1: only fifteen percent of Republicans only twenty six percent of independence. 299 00:15:56,720 --> 00:16:00,240 Speaker 1: Those two groups understand that most of the people coming 300 00:16:00,240 --> 00:16:03,920 Speaker 1: to the border do not qualify. That doesn't matter to 301 00:16:03,960 --> 00:16:06,480 Speaker 1: the Democrat mob. And within that forty eight percent is 302 00:16:06,480 --> 00:16:09,640 Speaker 1: the extra woke open border crowd who believe we shouldn't 303 00:16:09,640 --> 00:16:12,800 Speaker 1: even have asylum. Anybody that wants to come here should 304 00:16:12,800 --> 00:16:15,880 Speaker 1: be allowed to come here. That's going to result in chaos, 305 00:16:15,920 --> 00:16:18,880 Speaker 1: and we're starting to see it, but right now it's 306 00:16:18,920 --> 00:16:21,720 Speaker 1: only affecting cities like El Paso, Texas. Now I'm seeing 307 00:16:21,720 --> 00:16:25,000 Speaker 1: that Yuma, Arizona is being overrun. Yes, New York City 308 00:16:25,560 --> 00:16:27,560 Speaker 1: apparently has taken on the burden of more than thirty 309 00:16:27,560 --> 00:16:30,080 Speaker 1: thousand migrants and they want a billion dollars from the government. 310 00:16:31,040 --> 00:16:34,000 Speaker 1: We are a big country. This probably hasn't spilled into 311 00:16:34,080 --> 00:16:36,360 Speaker 1: enough places yet for people to get worked up. We 312 00:16:36,480 --> 00:16:39,840 Speaker 1: had that big splash made by the governors of Texas 313 00:16:39,840 --> 00:16:42,800 Speaker 1: and Florida earlier this year where they were sending some 314 00:16:42,840 --> 00:16:44,880 Speaker 1: of the migrants to other places like New York and 315 00:16:45,240 --> 00:16:49,880 Speaker 1: Martha's Vineyard. That got attention. Maybe that woke some people up, 316 00:16:50,320 --> 00:16:54,240 Speaker 1: but I don't think people really understand that if we 317 00:16:54,320 --> 00:16:58,240 Speaker 1: open up our borders to the hundreds of millions around 318 00:16:58,240 --> 00:17:01,000 Speaker 1: the world who want to come here. Boat's gonna sink 319 00:17:01,840 --> 00:17:06,280 Speaker 1: that's just too much. An orderly legal immigration system is fine, 320 00:17:06,800 --> 00:17:09,359 Speaker 1: and let Congress determine how many people. I mean, Trump 321 00:17:09,400 --> 00:17:13,160 Speaker 1: tried this. He wanted to redo the whole legal immigration 322 00:17:13,320 --> 00:17:16,720 Speaker 1: system too, after he thought he had done some good 323 00:17:16,760 --> 00:17:21,080 Speaker 1: work at the border with illegal immigration. But this administration 324 00:17:21,320 --> 00:17:24,920 Speaker 1: and whoever is really calling the shots here, Holy mackerel, 325 00:17:25,520 --> 00:17:30,000 Speaker 1: it is really wild, crazy open borders all right. More 326 00:17:30,000 --> 00:17:33,080 Speaker 1: coming up Johnny ken KFI AM six forty Live everywhere 327 00:17:33,160 --> 00:17:35,880 Speaker 1: on the iHeartRadio app. We'll be talking to the man 328 00:17:35,920 --> 00:17:38,760 Speaker 1: that leads up the union for the Border patrol agents. 329 00:17:38,920 --> 00:17:41,160 Speaker 1: Take you right down there to the source of the problem. 330 00:17:41,400 --> 00:17:44,919 Speaker 1: Brandon Judd will be our guest at five five to 331 00:17:45,000 --> 00:17:48,639 Speaker 1: talk about this latest surge, which is even beyond on 332 00:17:48,680 --> 00:17:50,960 Speaker 1: a daily basis, what the numbers were for the last 333 00:17:51,080 --> 00:17:55,200 Speaker 1: fiscal year. It's running ahead of that pace right now. Though, 334 00:17:55,240 --> 00:18:00,399 Speaker 1: we turned to CAFI News his own Steve Gregory. Steve, 335 00:18:00,600 --> 00:18:04,680 Speaker 1: I guess you this this show unsolved. Yeah, the Idahoa 336 00:18:04,760 --> 00:18:06,440 Speaker 1: murder is about to move into that category. 337 00:18:07,760 --> 00:18:10,840 Speaker 2: You know what. It's funny, but you're the second person 338 00:18:10,880 --> 00:18:15,080 Speaker 2: that's asked me that. But right now, Unsolved focuses strictly 339 00:18:15,119 --> 00:18:18,000 Speaker 2: on southern California cases, so I guess it wouldn't qualifying 340 00:18:18,040 --> 00:18:19,720 Speaker 2: less there was a connection down here. 341 00:18:20,480 --> 00:18:23,399 Speaker 1: When do you think though a case becomes cold? Weeks? Months? 342 00:18:23,480 --> 00:18:24,840 Speaker 1: I mean, is there a definition? 343 00:18:25,000 --> 00:18:29,080 Speaker 2: Yeah? No, there's no hard definition because I've done cases 344 00:18:29,080 --> 00:18:31,720 Speaker 2: where you know, it's only about a year old. I've 345 00:18:31,720 --> 00:18:34,520 Speaker 2: done cases where it's seven eight months old, and some 346 00:18:34,640 --> 00:18:38,280 Speaker 2: that are thirty forty years old. So the definition really 347 00:18:38,720 --> 00:18:41,879 Speaker 2: is up to the investigator when they've absolutely hit and 348 00:18:42,280 --> 00:18:46,200 Speaker 2: hit a brick wall and exhausted all leads. But now, 349 00:18:46,280 --> 00:18:50,560 Speaker 2: because of DNA and other advancements in forensic technology, they're 350 00:18:50,560 --> 00:18:54,440 Speaker 2: able to take clues from many years ago and evidence 351 00:18:54,560 --> 00:18:57,359 Speaker 2: and bring it forward and they're getting more leads because 352 00:18:57,359 --> 00:18:59,280 Speaker 2: of new technology from old evidence. 353 00:18:59,520 --> 00:19:03,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, dead boy in Long Beach about that story, Yeah, fascinating. 354 00:19:03,080 --> 00:19:06,680 Speaker 1: But you're here to talk about LAPD's announcements big arrests 355 00:19:06,680 --> 00:19:09,640 Speaker 1: of these follow home robberies. The task for the Follow Home. 356 00:19:09,480 --> 00:19:13,680 Speaker 2: Task Force, well, it started November of last year because 357 00:19:13,800 --> 00:19:16,679 Speaker 2: you know, as we reported on this show numerous times, 358 00:19:16,720 --> 00:19:19,480 Speaker 2: and people were seeing the video on our web and 359 00:19:19,560 --> 00:19:22,919 Speaker 2: on TV, and just showing people, you know, I mean 360 00:19:23,040 --> 00:19:26,280 Speaker 2: it started with smashing grabs, and then people were, you know, 361 00:19:26,520 --> 00:19:30,480 Speaker 2: literally following people as they left a jewelry store or 362 00:19:30,520 --> 00:19:32,879 Speaker 2: a high end fashion store or whatever the case was. 363 00:19:33,119 --> 00:19:36,080 Speaker 2: They'd follow them to people's cars, or they'd follow them 364 00:19:36,080 --> 00:19:39,919 Speaker 2: to their homes, and then they would pounce and and 365 00:19:40,000 --> 00:19:42,359 Speaker 2: a lot of times, most of the times they ended 366 00:19:42,359 --> 00:19:47,920 Speaker 2: in some sort of violent confrontation. So yesterday afternoon, late afternoon, 367 00:19:47,960 --> 00:19:51,760 Speaker 2: the LAPD announced the results of the task force, which 368 00:19:51,840 --> 00:19:55,800 Speaker 2: officially ended on December first, And because of the task 369 00:19:55,840 --> 00:20:00,560 Speaker 2: forces operations and other law enforcement agencies, there was seventy 370 00:20:00,640 --> 00:20:04,640 Speaker 2: seven percent reduction in follow home robberies in the last year, 371 00:20:04,760 --> 00:20:08,679 Speaker 2: so they touted that. But from that came one hundred 372 00:20:08,680 --> 00:20:11,760 Speaker 2: and twenty two arrests, and they say those one hundred 373 00:20:11,760 --> 00:20:15,399 Speaker 2: and twenty two people are responsible for total three hundred 374 00:20:15,400 --> 00:20:19,400 Speaker 2: and twenty eight crimes committed follow home type crimes. That's 375 00:20:19,440 --> 00:20:22,480 Speaker 2: pretty significant, and most of those were in the Hollywood 376 00:20:22,800 --> 00:20:24,240 Speaker 2: and Wilshire Division areas. 377 00:20:24,640 --> 00:20:27,159 Speaker 1: Were these more like gangs that were doing this the 378 00:20:27,200 --> 00:20:29,000 Speaker 1: way we found in other cases. 379 00:20:28,680 --> 00:20:30,879 Speaker 2: All across the board. But they said that in a 380 00:20:30,920 --> 00:20:33,040 Speaker 2: lot of times, a lot of times they were either 381 00:20:33,080 --> 00:20:35,240 Speaker 2: part of a gang or just part of a more 382 00:20:35,520 --> 00:20:38,840 Speaker 2: concerted effort among themselves, like the three or four friends 383 00:20:38,920 --> 00:20:42,800 Speaker 2: or buddies might be doing this within themselves, but they're 384 00:20:42,840 --> 00:20:44,879 Speaker 2: not part of a bigger group. But they were. In 385 00:20:44,880 --> 00:20:47,520 Speaker 2: a lot of times they were orchestrated attacks. 386 00:20:48,359 --> 00:20:51,760 Speaker 1: No so, because I remember before the pandemic we were 387 00:20:51,800 --> 00:20:53,679 Speaker 1: even talking to about the knock knock robbery. 388 00:20:53,760 --> 00:20:54,760 Speaker 2: I remember people would. 389 00:20:54,600 --> 00:20:56,159 Speaker 1: Check to see if anybody's home, and then if they 390 00:20:56,160 --> 00:20:58,639 Speaker 1: didn't get answer at the door, they'd blast their way in, 391 00:20:58,720 --> 00:21:00,440 Speaker 1: grab everything they could and run right. 392 00:21:00,720 --> 00:21:02,840 Speaker 2: This took over for that. During the Yeah, they were 393 00:21:02,880 --> 00:21:04,320 Speaker 2: more brazen. They were doing it in the middle of 394 00:21:04,320 --> 00:21:06,040 Speaker 2: the day. They were doing it at dust, doing it 395 00:21:06,119 --> 00:21:08,119 Speaker 2: at dark. They were doing it every time of the 396 00:21:08,200 --> 00:21:11,320 Speaker 2: day and night. And there was no rhyme or reason. 397 00:21:11,359 --> 00:21:13,120 Speaker 2: Didn't seem to be any kind of a peak time 398 00:21:13,560 --> 00:21:17,200 Speaker 2: that this was happening. It was just locations because they 399 00:21:17,200 --> 00:21:21,600 Speaker 2: were targeting people that were leaving, typically high end establishments, 400 00:21:21,760 --> 00:21:24,800 Speaker 2: or they were targeting people who were showing their blame 401 00:21:24,920 --> 00:21:27,359 Speaker 2: if you will. They were showing their expensive rollxes and 402 00:21:27,400 --> 00:21:30,879 Speaker 2: their watches and jewelry and purses and whatnot, so that 403 00:21:31,119 --> 00:21:33,440 Speaker 2: they were targeted because of what they were wearing or 404 00:21:33,480 --> 00:21:34,639 Speaker 2: where they were at. 405 00:21:35,080 --> 00:21:38,919 Speaker 1: This far more dangerous because if someone's going to confront 406 00:21:39,040 --> 00:21:41,800 Speaker 1: you to steal the watch off your wrist or something 407 00:21:41,840 --> 00:21:44,480 Speaker 1: you've got in your purse, that could result in you 408 00:21:44,560 --> 00:21:46,320 Speaker 1: being hurt. I mean, if you're not home and they 409 00:21:46,320 --> 00:21:49,080 Speaker 1: take stuff out of your house, that's not great. But boy, 410 00:21:49,400 --> 00:21:51,720 Speaker 1: if you're followed home and confronted by these robbers. Because 411 00:21:51,760 --> 00:21:54,080 Speaker 1: I see some of the arrest included murder and attempted murder. 412 00:21:54,160 --> 00:21:58,360 Speaker 2: Five are charged with murder, nine were charged with attempted 413 00:21:58,440 --> 00:22:01,680 Speaker 2: or booked for attempted murder. Five books for murdered, nine 414 00:22:01,680 --> 00:22:02,560 Speaker 2: attempted murder. 415 00:22:03,240 --> 00:22:04,800 Speaker 1: So is this the time to tell us that we 416 00:22:04,840 --> 00:22:07,560 Speaker 1: no longer have to worry about wearing our expensive watches 417 00:22:07,640 --> 00:22:08,119 Speaker 1: or jewelry. 418 00:22:08,359 --> 00:22:09,879 Speaker 2: Well, then, you know, with all this said, you know 419 00:22:09,920 --> 00:22:12,240 Speaker 2: how many incidents there have been in the month of December. 420 00:22:12,400 --> 00:22:15,040 Speaker 2: I mean we're coming up on Christmas and Hanukah and 421 00:22:15,080 --> 00:22:18,920 Speaker 2: all the other gift giving holidays. But any idea how 422 00:22:18,960 --> 00:22:20,800 Speaker 2: many incidents there have been this month so far? 423 00:22:21,280 --> 00:22:23,320 Speaker 1: I just know there's been a drop, right, a big drop. 424 00:22:23,400 --> 00:22:26,600 Speaker 2: There's only been one recorded follow home robbery in the 425 00:22:26,640 --> 00:22:28,760 Speaker 2: city of Los Angeles, City of Los Angeles for this 426 00:22:28,840 --> 00:22:29,920 Speaker 2: month to date. 427 00:22:31,080 --> 00:22:33,400 Speaker 1: So they're crediting this task for us for taking these 428 00:22:33,400 --> 00:22:36,240 Speaker 1: people off the streets. We always say that it's usually 429 00:22:36,280 --> 00:22:39,000 Speaker 1: a small number of criminals responsible for a large number 430 00:22:39,040 --> 00:22:42,200 Speaker 1: of crimes, and it seems like this follow home crowd. 431 00:22:42,240 --> 00:22:44,720 Speaker 1: By arresting the one hundred and twenty people, they've put 432 00:22:44,720 --> 00:22:45,840 Speaker 1: a dent in the appera. 433 00:22:45,880 --> 00:22:48,960 Speaker 2: Absolutely, because what's happened too now now let me just 434 00:22:49,040 --> 00:22:51,399 Speaker 2: be clear, is that there were sixteen detectives in this 435 00:22:51,520 --> 00:22:55,960 Speaker 2: task force who combed through hundreds of hours of surveillance video. 436 00:22:56,280 --> 00:22:59,119 Speaker 2: They used DNA fingerprints and that, like I said, that 437 00:22:59,200 --> 00:23:04,080 Speaker 2: high tech forensic analysis. But they upped and beefed up patrols. 438 00:23:04,480 --> 00:23:07,600 Speaker 2: Remember they had the horse patrols. Yeah, and they have 439 00:23:07,960 --> 00:23:10,879 Speaker 2: you know, then they had bigger presence with patrol cars. 440 00:23:10,960 --> 00:23:13,960 Speaker 2: And so that was sort of the formula that they 441 00:23:14,040 --> 00:23:18,280 Speaker 2: employed to help drop these crimes. And they would target 442 00:23:18,280 --> 00:23:20,800 Speaker 2: those areas on Melrose and Wiltshire and those very high, 443 00:23:21,200 --> 00:23:25,520 Speaker 2: high end and high trafficked shopping areas in Hollywood as well. 444 00:23:25,960 --> 00:23:27,760 Speaker 1: I don't know if you know this, but did it 445 00:23:27,800 --> 00:23:29,959 Speaker 1: turn out that a lot of people they ended up 446 00:23:29,960 --> 00:23:32,720 Speaker 1: in this arrest of one hundred and twenty they had 447 00:23:32,720 --> 00:23:35,440 Speaker 1: a criminal record, which made it easier to track them after. 448 00:23:35,280 --> 00:23:37,840 Speaker 2: They got every one of them, this was their first offense. 449 00:23:38,720 --> 00:23:43,200 Speaker 1: Is that I'm not joking. I took you seriously there 450 00:23:43,200 --> 00:23:46,280 Speaker 1: for a moment because he said it's a matter of fact. Sorry, 451 00:23:46,359 --> 00:23:49,200 Speaker 1: But every one of them had never committed a crime before. 452 00:23:49,080 --> 00:23:53,720 Speaker 2: A crime, including the five arrested for murder. No, it's 453 00:23:54,119 --> 00:23:57,639 Speaker 2: I don't know for a fact, but if history or 454 00:23:58,200 --> 00:24:02,280 Speaker 2: you know, any past cases like this are any indication 455 00:24:02,400 --> 00:24:05,120 Speaker 2: that there's probably some sort of a history, some sort 456 00:24:05,119 --> 00:24:06,919 Speaker 2: of a criminal history in the backgrounds of those one 457 00:24:07,000 --> 00:24:10,560 Speaker 2: hundred and twenty two people. But you could again, those 458 00:24:10,560 --> 00:24:13,040 Speaker 2: one hundred and twenty two are responsible for three hundred 459 00:24:13,080 --> 00:24:15,960 Speaker 2: and twenty eight different crimes and robberies. 460 00:24:16,040 --> 00:24:17,880 Speaker 1: It's like three to eight, right, yeah. 461 00:24:17,600 --> 00:24:21,359 Speaker 2: So yeah, and then you got eighty eight that were 462 00:24:21,359 --> 00:24:24,560 Speaker 2: actually booked for robbery specifically and other charges. They didn't 463 00:24:24,600 --> 00:24:25,720 Speaker 2: get into the other charges. 464 00:24:25,760 --> 00:24:27,720 Speaker 1: But now they do this with all the rest of 465 00:24:27,760 --> 00:24:29,240 Speaker 1: the categories of crime that occur. 466 00:24:29,520 --> 00:24:32,080 Speaker 2: Well, here's the interesting thing though, So the DA's office 467 00:24:32,119 --> 00:24:34,720 Speaker 2: and in the LAPD was trying to make a point 468 00:24:34,760 --> 00:24:40,399 Speaker 2: here that the LA County DA's office provided gun enhancements 469 00:24:40,400 --> 00:24:43,880 Speaker 2: on the violent armed robbery components. They did, Yes, they did. 470 00:24:44,119 --> 00:24:45,880 Speaker 1: I thought they're against enhancements, yea. 471 00:24:45,920 --> 00:24:46,800 Speaker 2: And not in this case. 472 00:24:46,840 --> 00:24:47,040 Speaker 3: I mean. 473 00:24:47,359 --> 00:24:49,639 Speaker 2: And when Chief More was asked that, and I remember 474 00:24:49,680 --> 00:24:52,200 Speaker 2: I played that audio on your show, even Chief More 475 00:24:52,240 --> 00:24:55,080 Speaker 2: admitted that the DA is starting to sort of change 476 00:24:55,119 --> 00:24:57,479 Speaker 2: his course a bit when it comes to enhancements and 477 00:24:57,520 --> 00:24:59,240 Speaker 2: going after these criminals a little harder. 478 00:25:00,000 --> 00:25:02,479 Speaker 1: All right, Steve, thank you very much.

We'll see 500 00:26:11,480 --> 00:26:13,160 Speaker 1: if they have anything to say about. 501 00:26:12,840 --> 00:26:15,560 Speaker 4: Our vegan Oh, I'm sure they do. 502 00:26:16,160 --> 00:26:20,800 Speaker 1: Now I present to you to animal slash creatures stories. 503 00:26:20,920 --> 00:26:23,359 Speaker 1: One's good, one's bad. Which one do you want first? 504 00:26:23,400 --> 00:26:24,560 Speaker 4: I want the good one first? 505 00:26:24,840 --> 00:26:26,600 Speaker 1: You do want the well? I thought you would like 506 00:26:26,600 --> 00:26:29,359 Speaker 1: this one. I thought of you immediately. Today, New York 507 00:26:29,400 --> 00:26:33,080 Speaker 1: State is following other states such as California, and they 508 00:26:33,119 --> 00:26:37,120 Speaker 1: are no longer going to allow retail pet stores. Yay, 509 00:26:37,280 --> 00:26:40,399 Speaker 1: you can't, And I don't know what you're California banned them, 510 00:26:40,440 --> 00:26:42,360 Speaker 1: but I remember I used to go to the Beverly Center. 511 00:26:42,400 --> 00:26:45,119 Speaker 1: You've ever been there, the mallep and there was a 512 00:26:45,200 --> 00:26:47,440 Speaker 1: pet store in there, and I did go in there occasionally, 513 00:26:47,880 --> 00:26:49,720 Speaker 1: and I had mixed emotions because I like to see 514 00:26:49,720 --> 00:26:52,160 Speaker 1: the puppies. Yeah, but then I'd look at their little 515 00:26:52,200 --> 00:26:53,960 Speaker 1: faces and some of them would jump up on the 516 00:26:53,960 --> 00:26:55,920 Speaker 1: glass and kind of just look at me, like, help 517 00:26:55,960 --> 00:26:56,719 Speaker 1: get me out of here. 518 00:26:56,880 --> 00:26:59,080 Speaker 4: We're I'm stuck in this tiny cage. 519 00:26:59,359 --> 00:27:01,960 Speaker 1: And then you would the sticker on the tank with 520 00:27:02,040 --> 00:27:05,000 Speaker 1: the breeder name. Usually it was like Missouri or Kansas. 521 00:27:05,040 --> 00:27:07,399 Speaker 1: I would sometimes look at these stickers because I'm curious, 522 00:27:07,440 --> 00:27:10,280 Speaker 1: where do they get these dogs from? And it's because 523 00:27:10,320 --> 00:27:13,080 Speaker 1: people want designer dogs, they want the pure bread. So 524 00:27:13,320 --> 00:27:14,919 Speaker 1: you know, you can see right away, well that's a 525 00:27:14,960 --> 00:27:19,480 Speaker 1: docs on, that's a that's a Labrador Retriever. That's not 526 00:27:19,520 --> 00:27:21,000 Speaker 1: what you see in the in the. 527 00:27:20,880 --> 00:27:25,640 Speaker 4: Shelters, No you don't. It's no terrier mix, pitbull mix. 528 00:27:25,840 --> 00:27:26,480 Speaker 4: This mix? 529 00:27:27,119 --> 00:27:29,080 Speaker 1: Yours? Are yours? Are shelter dogs? 530 00:27:29,119 --> 00:27:29,280 Speaker 3: Right? 531 00:27:29,320 --> 00:27:29,959 Speaker 1: Or are they rescues? 532 00:27:30,040 --> 00:27:31,360 Speaker 4: They're rescues, yeah. 533 00:27:31,160 --> 00:27:32,320 Speaker 1: And they are mixes of something. 534 00:27:32,320 --> 00:27:36,280 Speaker 5: Their terrier I think they're both. They're both West Highland 535 00:27:36,359 --> 00:27:37,480 Speaker 5: terrier mixes. 536 00:27:37,520 --> 00:27:38,960 Speaker 4: And I don't know what they're mixed with. 537 00:27:39,320 --> 00:27:41,040 Speaker 1: You know what, I have a Westy in my neighborhood 538 00:27:41,040 --> 00:27:42,960 Speaker 1: who looks more pure Westy than yours. 539 00:27:43,200 --> 00:27:45,480 Speaker 4: It's not an insult, but I know, no, they're not 540 00:27:45,640 --> 00:27:46,560 Speaker 4: They're not pure. 541 00:27:48,600 --> 00:27:50,120 Speaker 1: So I don't know what year they did that here, 542 00:27:50,119 --> 00:27:51,760 Speaker 1: but I noticed one day I went back to that 543 00:27:51,800 --> 00:27:53,639 Speaker 1: mall and that store was gone, So it must have 544 00:27:53,640 --> 00:27:57,560 Speaker 1: been in between the times. It was also one I 545 00:27:57,600 --> 00:27:59,920 Speaker 1: think there was another one, another mall in the West 546 00:28:00,680 --> 00:28:03,480 Speaker 1: because I used to see these a lot. So yeah, 547 00:28:03,520 --> 00:28:08,280 Speaker 1: the Governor of New York signed the legislation Dogs, Cats 548 00:28:08,320 --> 00:28:12,600 Speaker 1: and Rabbits. Rabbits across New York deserve loving homes and 549 00:28:12,680 --> 00:28:16,360 Speaker 1: humane treatment. We will make meaningful steps to cut down 550 00:28:16,359 --> 00:28:19,520 Speaker 1: on harsh treatment and protect the welfare of animals across 551 00:28:19,560 --> 00:28:21,880 Speaker 1: the state. And of course it targets the breeding systems 552 00:28:22,119 --> 00:28:25,840 Speaker 1: love that. And it's been more than one time when 553 00:28:25,880 --> 00:28:29,440 Speaker 1: I've said to people, and I've heard stories that you 554 00:28:29,440 --> 00:28:32,639 Speaker 1: can get you get a dog from a breeder. It 555 00:28:32,720 --> 00:28:35,560 Speaker 1: can have problems because there's inbreeding exactly. 556 00:28:35,640 --> 00:28:38,480 Speaker 5: And I actually, many many many years ago, had a 557 00:28:38,480 --> 00:28:42,280 Speaker 5: cocker Spaniel and that was a big problem with that, 558 00:28:42,520 --> 00:28:43,160 Speaker 5: with that breed. 559 00:28:43,400 --> 00:28:46,840 Speaker 1: Did it die young? Yes, usually it have like these 560 00:28:46,840 --> 00:28:50,440 Speaker 1: intestinal problems are something, is what I remember. And I 561 00:28:50,480 --> 00:28:52,479 Speaker 1: actually did have a friend I knew that did adopt 562 00:28:52,560 --> 00:28:54,520 Speaker 1: one from a breeder and that had all sorts of 563 00:28:54,880 --> 00:28:57,880 Speaker 1: medical problems. It was constantly being taken into the vet 564 00:28:58,400 --> 00:28:59,959 Speaker 1: to be looked at it. And I always thought it had 565 00:29:00,160 --> 00:29:03,000 Speaker 1: something like internal kind of problems with the with the 566 00:29:03,080 --> 00:29:06,440 Speaker 1: organs and stuff because of they inbreeding. And it's a 567 00:29:06,560 --> 00:29:07,080 Speaker 1: terrible one. 568 00:29:07,080 --> 00:29:10,520 Speaker 5: There's just too many dogs can and cats and bunnies 569 00:29:10,600 --> 00:29:12,600 Speaker 5: that need to be rescued. 570 00:29:12,600 --> 00:29:13,239 Speaker 4: But I get it. 571 00:29:13,560 --> 00:29:19,520 Speaker 5: Everybody wants those French bulldogs or their labradoodles, and unfortunately 572 00:29:19,520 --> 00:29:21,920 Speaker 5: you don't find many of those in shelters. 573 00:29:22,040 --> 00:29:24,320 Speaker 1: Now. I tell you, my whole neighborhood is designer dogs. 574 00:29:24,520 --> 00:29:26,600 Speaker 1: When I walk outside to see somebody walking a dog, 575 00:29:26,640 --> 00:29:28,240 Speaker 1: I can tell right away what breed it is. I 576 00:29:28,240 --> 00:29:30,920 Speaker 1: don't see a lot of mixes. I know. That's sad, 577 00:29:30,960 --> 00:29:31,320 Speaker 1: isn't it. 578 00:29:31,360 --> 00:29:33,440 Speaker 5: I went to the farmers market last weekend on the 579 00:29:33,440 --> 00:29:37,600 Speaker 5: West Side, and almost every dog there was a labradoodle, 580 00:29:37,760 --> 00:29:38,600 Speaker 5: a golden doodle. 581 00:29:39,640 --> 00:29:43,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's a designer dog. Because people, I don't want 582 00:29:43,200 --> 00:29:46,720 Speaker 1: all the fur on my furniture, so mix the breeds. 583 00:29:46,760 --> 00:29:49,840 Speaker 1: I love labradors, but they shed, so they got the 584 00:29:49,880 --> 00:29:52,800 Speaker 1: poodle in there. There you go, There you go. Poodles 585 00:29:52,800 --> 00:29:53,480 Speaker 1: don't really. 586 00:29:53,240 --> 00:29:56,720 Speaker 5: Shed, and they're supposed to be hyper allergenic hypoalergenic. 587 00:29:56,880 --> 00:29:59,280 Speaker 1: Oh right, so you're not sneezing all the time around 588 00:29:59,360 --> 00:30:03,280 Speaker 1: and stuff like. No in my neighborhood and it's a lot, 589 00:30:03,800 --> 00:30:06,720 Speaker 1: a lot of French bulldogs. They are everywhere, and then 590 00:30:06,760 --> 00:30:11,200 Speaker 1: now people are stealing them. Honestly, I know, I like 591 00:30:11,240 --> 00:30:13,880 Speaker 1: the French bulldog. It's a cool dog, but not my favorite. 592 00:30:14,080 --> 00:30:16,640 Speaker 4: I mean, they're cute, but not my favorite. 593 00:30:17,360 --> 00:30:20,360 Speaker 1: Now the sad story, and I know you grieved over 594 00:30:20,400 --> 00:30:25,280 Speaker 1: this one. You probably heard that a large cylindrical aquarium 595 00:30:25,680 --> 00:30:30,480 Speaker 1: at a hotel in Germany burst. It exploded. 596 00:30:30,840 --> 00:30:32,240 Speaker 4: I did not hear about that. 597 00:30:33,120 --> 00:30:36,600 Speaker 1: Yep, glass chairs, tables, and other debris were swept out 598 00:30:36,640 --> 00:30:40,920 Speaker 1: of the dom Acquire complex, which includes a Radison hotel, museum, 599 00:30:40,960 --> 00:30:45,200 Speaker 1: shops and restaurants. Says, well, this is a European. A 600 00:30:46,800 --> 00:30:50,200 Speaker 1: bunch of water poured out. This was a forty six 601 00:30:50,240 --> 00:30:53,840 Speaker 1: foot high tank, so that must have been quite a thing. 602 00:30:53,880 --> 00:30:55,760 Speaker 1: It was sort of like a lobby area. We can 603 00:30:55,800 --> 00:30:58,720 Speaker 1: walk by and it's cylindrical, so picture it going up 604 00:30:58,760 --> 00:31:03,760 Speaker 1: and it's in shape. Yeah, fifteen hundred fish went flying. 605 00:31:03,840 --> 00:31:06,880 Speaker 4: Oh no, I can't even imagine that. 606 00:31:07,560 --> 00:31:11,520 Speaker 1: The first thing most people might say was was anybody hurt? 607 00:31:11,960 --> 00:31:15,280 Speaker 1: Two people did sustain injuries from the shards of glass. 608 00:31:15,680 --> 00:31:18,200 Speaker 1: What Deborah Mark might say was are all the fish 609 00:31:18,200 --> 00:31:18,800 Speaker 1: still alive? 610 00:31:18,960 --> 00:31:20,840 Speaker 4: And I'm sure most of them are. 611 00:31:20,720 --> 00:31:24,200 Speaker 1: Not They're not. No, some people thought a bomb exploded. 612 00:31:24,200 --> 00:31:28,959 Speaker 1: It was a little bit of panic. Initially, clownfish, Tierra batfish, 613 00:31:29,280 --> 00:31:35,320 Speaker 1: surgeon fish were in there. Some survive, but well, this 614 00:31:35,360 --> 00:31:37,120 Speaker 1: story says none of them did. But I thought there 615 00:31:37,120 --> 00:31:38,960 Speaker 1: was a report that some aquarium was going to take 616 00:31:38,960 --> 00:31:40,200 Speaker 1: in the surviving fish. 617 00:31:40,480 --> 00:31:42,840 Speaker 4: How there could be any survivor. 618 00:31:42,480 --> 00:31:46,360 Speaker 1: The biggest cylindrical tank in the world fifteen hundred tropical 619 00:31:46,360 --> 00:31:49,880 Speaker 1: fish of eighty different species. There is something calming when 620 00:31:49,880 --> 00:31:52,240 Speaker 1: you ever look at an aquarium thing like a large one. 621 00:31:52,440 --> 00:31:54,480 Speaker 4: I had one one time. At one time. 622 00:31:54,840 --> 00:31:56,920 Speaker 1: Hey, you just watched the fish swim around and around. 623 00:31:56,920 --> 00:31:58,800 Speaker 1: You imagine what life would be like if that was 624 00:31:58,840 --> 00:31:59,880 Speaker 1: you in a tank all day. 625 00:32:00,320 --> 00:32:04,000 Speaker 4: You get some beautiful fish, just watch them.
