WEBVTT - Mayorkas LIED: Explosive Cross-Examination In The Senate Judiciary Committee 0:00:01.360 --> 0:00:04.000 Welcome. It is verdict to a Senator Ted Cruz ben 0:00:04.080 --> 0:00:09.799 Ferguson with you, Senator, it was an unbelievable moment for 0:00:09.880 --> 0:00:13.319 you yesterday in the Senate as you were going back 0:00:13.320 --> 0:00:18.239 and forth questioning the Department of howand Security secretary my orcists, 0:00:18.560 --> 0:00:23.160 who really clearly after you went through this with him, 0:00:23.160 --> 0:00:26.360 proved he doesn't know anything that's going on at this border. 0:00:27.120 --> 0:00:29.000 Was he lying to you or do you actually believe 0:00:29.040 --> 0:00:31.840 he really doesn't know what's going on. I think he 0:00:31.920 --> 0:00:34.239 doesn't care. I think he's a political operative. I think 0:00:34.280 --> 0:00:37.400 he's willing to follow the orders of the Biden White House. 0:00:37.960 --> 0:00:40.560 I think he's perfectly fine with open borders. Not only 0:00:40.560 --> 0:00:44.720 perfectly fine, I think he've used his job as expediting 0:00:44.760 --> 0:00:48.800 and facilitating open borders, enabling illegal aliens to cross faster, 0:00:49.920 --> 0:00:52.760 maximizing the number of illegal aliens coming into this country. 0:00:52.760 --> 0:00:57.000 And I think he has no concern about the human tragedies, 0:00:57.040 --> 0:01:00.760 about the suffering that is resulting from his manifest their 0:01:00.760 --> 0:01:05.000 election of duty. I've never seen anything like it. I 0:01:05.080 --> 0:01:07.640 want to play some of the highlights for this and 0:01:07.680 --> 0:01:10.560 just some of the basic questions that you asked him 0:01:11.360 --> 0:01:15.640 dealt with basic things that this man should be able 0:01:15.680 --> 0:01:18.080 to answer. One of those was you ask him a 0:01:18.200 --> 0:01:21.960 question of is there a crisis at the border? Take 0:01:21.959 --> 0:01:24.959 a list and for everybody that missed it, this was incredible. 0:01:25.560 --> 0:01:29.840 Is there a crisis that are Southern Border Centator? There 0:01:29.920 --> 0:01:32.920 is a very that's a yes or no question. Is 0:01:32.959 --> 0:01:36.560 there a crisis? Centator? There's a very significant challenge. I 0:01:36.560 --> 0:01:40.200 think your microphone is not on. There is a very 0:01:40.240 --> 0:01:42.959 significant challenge that we are face. Yes or no? Is 0:01:42.959 --> 0:01:45.560 there a crisis? I believe I've addressed that question. So 0:01:45.600 --> 0:01:49.600 you're refusing to answer, cent there is a very significant challenge, 0:01:49.600 --> 0:01:52.320 and will you answer if there's a crisis? Therefore we 0:01:52.400 --> 0:01:55.480 are dedicating the resource. Okay, so you're refusing to answer, Well, 0:01:55.920 --> 0:01:58.919 Secretary may Orchis, I'll tell you someone who is willing 0:01:58.920 --> 0:02:03.160 to answer, which is your and President Biden's Chief of 0:02:03.200 --> 0:02:06.440 the Border Patrol. In a sworn deposition in July of 0:02:06.480 --> 0:02:09.720 twenty twenty two, when asked, would you agree, Chief Forts 0:02:09.760 --> 0:02:12.720 that the southern border is currently in crisis? Answer yes. 0:02:13.200 --> 0:02:15.639 Notice none of those wiggle words, none of that equivocation. 0:02:16.000 --> 0:02:18.880 One word, one syllable yes. Are you willing to speak 0:02:18.919 --> 0:02:20.880 with the same clarity, as Chief Orts, as there a 0:02:20.880 --> 0:02:23.480 crisis at our southern border? Yes or no? Senator, I'm 0:02:23.560 --> 0:02:25.880 very proud to work alongside. So you refuse to answer, 0:02:25.960 --> 0:02:29.320 let me ask you the next question. Has the crisis 0:02:29.320 --> 0:02:35.160 at our southern border made Americans less safe? Yes? Or no? Senator? 0:02:35.960 --> 0:02:38.880 We are dedicated to the safety. Has the crisis made 0:02:38.880 --> 0:02:41.760 Americans less safe? I don't want a discourse. It's a 0:02:41.840 --> 0:02:46.160 yes or no question. Senator, we have a challenge of 0:02:46.280 --> 0:02:49.519 you refuse to answer the questions seconds. Secretary, let me 0:02:49.560 --> 0:02:51.959 show you how someone doing his job answers a question 0:02:51.960 --> 0:02:56.160 in a straightforward matter. Chief Orts, is the crisis that 0:02:56.320 --> 0:02:58.880 is currently ongoing at the southern border making the border 0:02:58.960 --> 0:03:03.320 less safe for Americans and aliens alike? Answer? Yes, one word, 0:03:03.400 --> 0:03:06.600 one syllable, three letters. That's how someone answers a question 0:03:06.600 --> 0:03:09.600 and does their job. You're being a politician, misleading the 0:03:09.600 --> 0:03:12.160 American people. Let me give you a chance again. Will 0:03:12.200 --> 0:03:15.800 you show the same integrity, Chief Ortiz shows, is the 0:03:15.880 --> 0:03:19.520 crisis at the southern border making Americans less safe? Yes? 0:03:19.639 --> 0:03:22.480 Or no? Senator, we have two hundred sixty thousand You 0:03:22.520 --> 0:03:26.760 refuse to answer the question. Let's move on. You hear it? 0:03:26.919 --> 0:03:31.040 And it's shocking, Centator, because when you hear this, this 0:03:31.080 --> 0:03:33.480 is the guy in charge of the border and he 0:03:33.520 --> 0:03:36.200 can't even answer this basic question. And his job is 0:03:36.240 --> 0:03:38.880 not supposed to be a political operative job, right He's 0:03:38.880 --> 0:03:41.400 not supposed to be like, I'm a Democrat who's in 0:03:41.480 --> 0:03:44.880 charge of the Department of Home in Security right now, 0:03:44.920 --> 0:03:49.240 That's exactly right. What's utterly maddening is Mayorcus is a witness. 0:03:49.240 --> 0:03:51.600 He may be the worst witness I've ever seen. He 0:03:51.760 --> 0:03:54.680 will not answer a single question, doesn't matter what you 0:03:54.720 --> 0:03:56.360 ask him. You could ask him what day it is. 0:03:56.360 --> 0:03:57.960 You could ask him what time of day it is, 0:03:58.280 --> 0:04:02.200 and he will say, Senator, we want to protect America, 0:04:02.280 --> 0:04:04.440 blah blah, blah blah. He just reads his talking points 0:04:04.440 --> 0:04:09.360 and it doesn't I've never seen a witness. This was 0:04:09.400 --> 0:04:11.920 true in all of my questions. Had a ten minute round. 0:04:12.360 --> 0:04:14.840 He wouldn't answer a single question I asked the whole time. 0:04:15.280 --> 0:04:17.240 That was true of every other Senator I saw. He 0:04:18.160 --> 0:04:21.640 believes his job as a witness is stand up and 0:04:21.760 --> 0:04:25.560 just read his political spin and look. One of the 0:04:25.600 --> 0:04:28.960 things that shows is it shows a contempt not just 0:04:29.040 --> 0:04:32.039 for Congress, but for the American people. The reason you 0:04:32.160 --> 0:04:36.159 have an oversight hearing is under the Constitution, under Article one, 0:04:36.240 --> 0:04:40.039 Congress has the legislative authority and has oversight authority over 0:04:40.080 --> 0:04:43.800 the executive branch. And when Senators are asking those questions, 0:04:43.600 --> 0:04:47.159 it's not just me sitting there like asking some questions 0:04:47.160 --> 0:04:50.000 because I'm curious. I have a job to represent thirty 0:04:50.040 --> 0:04:52.880 million Texans. So what I'm asking that question, I'm trying 0:04:52.880 --> 0:04:56.719 to do my very best I can to represent what 0:04:56.880 --> 0:04:59.440 those Texans are feeling, what they're facing. I could tell 0:04:59.440 --> 0:05:02.400 you texts know the answer, is there crisis at our 0:05:02.440 --> 0:05:05.640 southern border. Hell yes, Actually Texans, it would be two words, 0:05:05.680 --> 0:05:08.120 not one, and I would forgive a hell yes instead 0:05:08.160 --> 0:05:14.800 of a yes. But when he just shows contempt, he 0:05:15.440 --> 0:05:21.440 will not answer because it's all political spin and he 0:05:22.600 --> 0:05:25.840 is not willing to answer to the American people. It's 0:05:25.920 --> 0:05:29.200 not just that he won't answer you in the oversight 0:05:29.360 --> 0:05:32.320 or the American people. It's the fact that he's sitting 0:05:32.320 --> 0:05:35.440 there almost like he thinks this is beneath him to 0:05:35.520 --> 0:05:40.000 be questions yes. Arrogance that he showed, and I was watching, 0:05:40.160 --> 0:05:41.919 By the way, Merritt Garland does the same thing. The 0:05:41.920 --> 0:05:45.640 Attorney General. Merritt Garland likewise won't answer a question. This 0:05:45.839 --> 0:05:53.040 Biden cabinet embodies hubris. They embody dripping contempt and arrogance. 0:05:53.080 --> 0:05:57.240 Look the last podcast we talked about John Carey defending 0:05:57.760 --> 0:06:00.760 billionaires flying private jets to Dobe, was saying, well, you know, 0:06:00.800 --> 0:06:03.520 they work harder to save the world from climate change 0:06:03.520 --> 0:06:05.920 than most people, so they ought to be sitting there 0:06:05.920 --> 0:06:09.560 having gray poupon and champagne with their Corinthian leather fancy 0:06:09.640 --> 0:06:15.760 private jets. I mean, is it is contempt that characterizes 0:06:16.600 --> 0:06:20.080 the Biden cabinet. It also reminded me a little bit 0:06:20.080 --> 0:06:26.360 of Faucia, the narcissistic attitude of this is my world. 0:06:26.560 --> 0:06:29.120 I have to check a box and come deal with 0:06:29.160 --> 0:06:31.920 you today, and I don't have to answer to you 0:06:32.120 --> 0:06:34.680 or any of the American people. In other words, I'm 0:06:34.720 --> 0:06:37.120 not working for the American people. That seems to be 0:06:37.200 --> 0:06:39.599 what he thinks is that he gets to do what 0:06:39.680 --> 0:06:41.839 he wants to do and he shouldn't have to answer 0:06:41.839 --> 0:06:45.160 to anyone. He works for Joe Biden. He is a 0:06:45.200 --> 0:06:49.800 political operative. Joe Biden has handed the immigration agenda over 0:06:50.320 --> 0:06:54.720 to the radical open borders extreme left. They want as 0:06:54.800 --> 0:06:58.560 many illegal aliens as possible in America. And the amazing 0:06:58.600 --> 0:07:02.040 thing is they do not care. I have to tell 0:07:02.040 --> 0:07:04.240 you you spend time on the Southern border. I spend 0:07:04.279 --> 0:07:06.880 a lot of time on the Southern border. The suffering, 0:07:06.960 --> 0:07:11.640 the deaths, the misery that comes from this, the fact that, look, 0:07:12.080 --> 0:07:17.080 this official, Alejandro may Orcas is responsible for that suffering 0:07:17.080 --> 0:07:19.920 in death. And I don't think he stays awake at 0:07:20.000 --> 0:07:22.040 night thinking about it. I don't think he worries about 0:07:22.040 --> 0:07:26.240 it at all. Even though Americans are dying, even though 0:07:26.560 --> 0:07:30.120 illegal immigrants are dying, even though children's are suffering. He's 0:07:30.160 --> 0:07:33.400 got a political, partisan agenda, and sadly that's all the 0:07:33.440 --> 0:07:36.040 matters to him. Yeah, you mentioned that he doesn't seem 0:07:36.040 --> 0:07:38.000 to care one of the questions you asked him. And 0:07:38.040 --> 0:07:40.160 I want to play this for people where how many 0:07:40.240 --> 0:07:43.960 migrants died under Joe Biden. But before we get to that, 0:07:44.160 --> 0:07:46.119 I want to tell you about our friends over at Chalk. 0:07:46.240 --> 0:07:48.200 If you're a guy and you're getting a little bit 0:07:48.200 --> 0:07:50.240 older and you feel like you've lost a little bit 0:07:50.280 --> 0:07:54.280 of that edge, there is an answer.

Senator, you asked my Orcus 0:08:40.840 --> 0:08:43.680 about a basic question that he I'm pretty sure knows 0:08:43.720 --> 0:08:46.000 the answer to, and I think it goes to what 0:08:46.040 --> 0:08:49.640 you just said. He doesn't care about how many people die. Listen, 0:08:49.800 --> 0:08:54.240 mister Maiorcas. Has the crisis made aliens less safe? Yes? 0:08:54.320 --> 0:08:58.400 Or no? Senator? We are seeking so you won't answer 0:08:58.440 --> 0:09:01.280 that question either if you get it's a yes or no? 0:09:01.600 --> 0:09:05.880 Has it made aliens less safe? Senator? Smugglers are exploiting. 0:09:06.040 --> 0:09:09.280 Has the crisis made aliens? Yes? Less safe? Are you 0:09:09.320 --> 0:09:14.240 willing to answer it? Senator? The smuggling organizations Okay, you're 0:09:14.280 --> 0:09:17.719 you're filibustering again. Let me ask you this question, how 0:09:17.720 --> 0:09:22.840 many migrants have died under President Biden? Senator, you're phrasing 0:09:22.880 --> 0:09:26.840 of the question is actually quite mislead. How many migrants 0:09:26.880 --> 0:09:32.439 died in twenty twenty two at our approaching our southern border? Yes, 0:09:32.840 --> 0:09:36.960 precisely why we are seeking to do you know the answer? 0:09:36.960 --> 0:09:38.880 Do you know how many died? I do not. You 0:09:38.960 --> 0:09:41.160 do not, of course you don't. I know how many died? 0:09:41.200 --> 0:09:44.480 Eight hundred and fifty three, eight hundred and fifty three. 0:09:44.520 --> 0:09:46.320 And by the way, here are the numbers that have 0:09:46.400 --> 0:09:48.640 died every year. You go back to nineteen ninety eight. 0:09:48.720 --> 0:09:50.920 You see it's consistently between three hundred, four hundred, three 0:09:50.960 --> 0:09:53.760 hundred four to three and four hundred. Suddenly twenty twenty one, 0:09:53.840 --> 0:09:57.120 what happens you get in office and that red line 0:09:57.520 --> 0:10:00.079 are dead bodies. I've been on the Rio Grand and 0:10:00.440 --> 0:10:04.200 I've seen dead bodies floating there who drowned because of 0:10:04.240 --> 0:10:06.679 your refusal to do your job. You don't even know 0:10:06.720 --> 0:10:09.120 how many have died. What do you say to the 0:10:09.120 --> 0:10:13.080 Texas farmers and ranchers who find pregnant ladies dead on 0:10:13.120 --> 0:10:16.160 their property, who find toddlers dead on their property. What 0:10:16.200 --> 0:10:18.320 do you say to them, I say, that is why 0:10:18.960 --> 0:10:22.200 precisely we are taking it to the smuggling organiza. But 0:10:22.240 --> 0:10:24.719 you are not. That is simply not true. Number two 0:10:24.960 --> 0:10:28.840 is let me read from the Wall Street Journal. The 0:10:28.880 --> 0:10:31.800 Wall Street Journal two weeks ago ran an article entitled 0:10:31.800 --> 0:10:35.679 It's like a graveyard record numbers of migrants are dying 0:10:35.679 --> 0:10:38.720 at the border. The story begins with this chilling line 0:10:38.840 --> 0:10:44.080 quote Eagle Pass, Texas local officials keep a refrigerated truck 0:10:44.120 --> 0:10:47.240 to hold the bodies of migrants who drown in the 0:10:47.280 --> 0:10:50.000 currents of the Rio Grand while trying to cross the 0:10:50.040 --> 0:10:53.520 border into the US. This Chairman, I asked you aunanimous 0:10:53.559 --> 0:10:56.559 consent that this article will be entered into the record centator. 0:10:57.040 --> 0:11:00.440 It is like he just doesn't care, which is so 0:11:00.559 --> 0:11:03.280 shocking to sit there and watch its facial expressions. He's 0:11:03.360 --> 0:11:07.480 numbed to these stats. It doesn't matter to him. I 0:11:07.520 --> 0:11:10.960 don't know how a Secretary of Homeland Security could not 0:11:11.080 --> 0:11:13.719 know the answer to that question, how many migrants died 0:11:13.800 --> 0:11:15.599 last year? It's eight hundred and fifty three. It's the 0:11:15.640 --> 0:11:19.000 highest in history. And he doesn't know. He doesn't care. 0:11:19.120 --> 0:11:20.559 I don't know that he's ever asked I don't know 0:11:20.600 --> 0:11:23.439 that anyone's bothered to tell him he feels no responsibility 0:11:23.480 --> 0:11:26.360 for him. And I got to say, look, when you 0:11:26.440 --> 0:11:30.120 go down to the Rio Grand Valley, when I'm down there, 0:11:30.160 --> 0:11:32.280 I try to sit down with sheriffs. I try to 0:11:32.280 --> 0:11:34.200 sit down with law enforcement. I always sit down with 0:11:34.240 --> 0:11:38.560 border patrol. I sit down with farmers and ranchers. When 0:11:38.640 --> 0:11:41.080 you look in the eyes of farmers and ranchers, I've 0:11:41.080 --> 0:11:44.400 had them put photograph after photographed after photograph of dead bodies. 0:11:44.440 --> 0:11:48.319 They find dead bodies one after the other. Imagine this, 0:11:48.840 --> 0:11:50.600 I get them. They send me texts if I was 0:11:50.600 --> 0:11:53.160 out of my ranch today, here two dead bodies I found, 0:11:53.160 --> 0:11:56.560 just abandoned on the ranch. Because these human traffickers, they 0:11:56.559 --> 0:12:00.480 are vicious criminals. They don't care if some in is week, 0:12:00.520 --> 0:12:02.760 if someone's frail, if someone's sick, if a woman is 0:12:02.760 --> 0:12:04.920 pregnant and she's not able to keep up. You know what, 0:12:05.000 --> 0:12:08.080 They just abandoned them to die in the heat. And 0:12:09.559 --> 0:12:13.400 Majorcas's view is, oh, well, tough luck. You can tell 0:12:14.160 --> 0:12:16.079 he's not doing anything to stop it, and in fact 0:12:16.640 --> 0:12:19.800 he intends to continue it. So next year that number 0:12:19.840 --> 0:12:21.400 is going to be higher than eight hundred and fifty 0:12:21.440 --> 0:12:24.360 three because when you open up the border to the 0:12:24.400 --> 0:12:27.880 worst illegal immigration in the history of our country, you 0:12:28.480 --> 0:12:33.960 make the drug cartels in human trafficking cartels into massive, 0:12:34.120 --> 0:12:38.320 multibillion dollar global enterprises. The election of Joe Biden, Joe 0:12:38.320 --> 0:12:41.400 Biden becoming president is the single best thing that has 0:12:41.400 --> 0:12:44.320 ever happened to the Mexican drug cartels in their lives. 0:12:44.760 --> 0:12:51.080 And Alejandro Mayorcas is the happy lackey, turning these vicious 0:12:51.080 --> 0:12:57.040 criminals into billionaires and forcing the border patrol to essentially 0:12:57.080 --> 0:13:00.400 be the travel agents, to be the last aisle of 0:13:00.440 --> 0:13:07.120 the human trafficking network, facilitating this, this horrific oppression. Senator, 0:13:08.120 --> 0:13:10.320 there was something else that was interesting as I was 0:13:10.360 --> 0:13:12.200 watching this, and I want to get your take, and 0:13:12.240 --> 0:13:17.240 that was it seemed that my Orcas came in not 0:13:17.320 --> 0:13:22.520 necessarily ill prepared, just not caring. Most of the time 0:13:22.600 --> 0:13:25.800 you get a briefing if you are going before Congress, 0:13:26.280 --> 0:13:29.520 you would have the numbers that you just mentioned, you 0:13:29.520 --> 0:13:32.559 would have some stats and data, you would prepare for this. 0:13:33.080 --> 0:13:35.760 It was almost like he showed up and says, I 0:13:35.880 --> 0:13:39.760 don't have to prepare for this because I know ultimately 0:13:39.880 --> 0:13:42.800 what I'm doing now is going to keep happening regardless 0:13:42.840 --> 0:13:46.560 of what you asked me today. Yeah, no, that's exactly right. 0:13:46.600 --> 0:13:50.360 I mean it. Normally, a cabinet member preparing for a 0:13:50.440 --> 0:13:55.720 Senate oversight hearing spends real time, spends several days, spends 0:13:55.720 --> 0:13:59.200 maybe a week preparing, normally to have a briefing notebook 0:13:59.240 --> 0:14:00.960 in front of them with all sorts of stats. And 0:14:00.960 --> 0:14:03.720 so if you ask him a question how many migrants died, 0:14:04.240 --> 0:14:06.079 they flipped to a tab. They may not know the 0:14:06.160 --> 0:14:07.760 number off the top of their head, but they've got 0:14:07.760 --> 0:14:09.880 a tab and they say, oh, well, in twenty twenty two, 0:14:09.880 --> 0:14:13.480 the numbers eight hundred and fifty three. That that happens 0:14:13.480 --> 0:14:17.079 in in Senate hearings every day. That that's what Actually 0:14:17.480 --> 0:14:21.920 a witness, who is testifying, who's providing testimony, providing information, 0:14:22.320 --> 0:14:24.680 that's what they do. May orchis just sat there as 0:14:24.680 --> 0:14:33.000 a smug, content potentate with no sense. He owes nothing 0:14:33.080 --> 0:14:36.120 he believes to the Senate, he owes nothing to the law, 0:14:36.200 --> 0:14:39.520 he owes nothing to the American people. He is there 0:14:39.560 --> 0:14:43.360 to be a political lackey of the president, and nothing 0:14:43.400 --> 0:14:46.280 else matters to him. You talk about the border, the 0:14:46.320 --> 0:14:49.080 borders are was supposed to be obviously the vice president 0:14:49.520 --> 0:14:54.760 of the United's America Biden, you know who? Basically say 0:14:54.800 --> 0:14:59.520 that again, who who? I'm sorry, who's that person? Oh? Yeah, right, exactly, yeah, 0:14:59.560 --> 0:15:01.800 that the vice president, I said to America. Wouldn't she 0:15:01.840 --> 0:15:03.440 supposed to be in charge of the borders? Are right? 0:15:03.760 --> 0:15:06.200 I'm sorry, I don't know who that person is. She 0:15:06.200 --> 0:15:11.680 she is not involved in the border. I mean, it's 0:15:11.760 --> 0:15:14.320 sad that you're joking this way because it's so it's 0:15:14.320 --> 0:15:17.840 so factually accurate. I'm satzing is I'm not joking. May 0:15:17.920 --> 0:15:20.800 Orcus doesn't talk to Kamala Harris. Merrick Garland doesn't talk 0:15:20.800 --> 0:15:22.960 to Kamala Harris. Kamala Harris doesn't go to the border. 0:15:23.040 --> 0:15:25.840 She did, she made a brief little photostop in Opasso, 0:15:25.920 --> 0:15:28.200 but she's never been to the Rio Grand Valley. She 0:15:28.560 --> 0:15:31.280 has no idea what's going on. I mean it. The 0:15:31.320 --> 0:15:33.920 only reason she was quote borders are is because Joe 0:15:33.960 --> 0:15:36.280 Biden can't stand her. So he figures, okay, the borders 0:15:36.320 --> 0:15:38.920 a mass, Let's give it to Kamala and make the 0:15:39.240 --> 0:15:43.040 blame fall on her. But you know, she's not clever 0:15:43.160 --> 0:15:45.520 enough to understand, Okay, they're screwing me. By making me 0:15:45.560 --> 0:15:48.960 in charge of this. And she's not even if she 0:15:49.000 --> 0:15:51.320 did figure that out, she's not good enough to say, Okay, well, 0:15:51.320 --> 0:15:53.360 if they're going to stick it on me, why don't 0:15:53.400 --> 0:15:55.760 I do something about it? Nope, you know what, she 0:15:55.880 --> 0:15:58.960 has the same hubris as may Orchis, the same hubris 0:15:58.760 --> 0:16:01.680 as Merrick Garland of I don't have to answer the 0:16:01.680 --> 0:16:04.000 American people. It doesn't matter that I don't know anything 0:16:04.040 --> 0:16:05.760 about the border, that I've never been to the border, 0:16:05.760 --> 0:16:07.640 that i don't care about the border, that I'm doing 0:16:07.680 --> 0:16:10.040 nothing to solve it. Oh well, no one will hold 0:16:10.080 --> 0:16:14.360 me to account. And it's there's a consistent thread that 0:16:14.480 --> 0:16:19.080 runs through this entire administration. It's not just a consistent thread, 0:16:19.240 --> 0:16:22.480 it's a fact that this is their policy that as 0:16:22.560 --> 0:16:25.160 we look at it as a failure, they're looking at 0:16:25.160 --> 0:16:28.440 this as a success. And the success is for the 0:16:28.480 --> 0:16:31.080 border to be able to run and to remake this country. 0:16:32.080 --> 0:16:33.800 Is that your take on this? I mean, this was 0:16:33.840 --> 0:16:36.440 done by design. This isn't by accident. This was a 0:16:36.480 --> 0:16:40.960 deliberate decision they made to open the floodgates to this country. 0:16:41.040 --> 0:16:45.360 The fetnol, the human trafficking, the sex trafficking, everything else, 0:16:45.400 --> 0:16:48.200 that comes across the border. They knew it was going 0:16:48.240 --> 0:16:50.840 to happen, they then saw it was happening, and have 0:16:51.000 --> 0:16:54.600 not changed course one time since they got elected. Well, 0:16:54.640 --> 0:16:56.920 I think that's right. I will say this. I do 0:16:57.000 --> 0:17:01.080 think some Democrats are realizing that the utter disaster at 0:17:01.080 --> 0:17:04.240 the southern border is a political liability. So what has 0:17:04.240 --> 0:17:06.200 happened when we talk about this a lot on the pod, 0:17:07.040 --> 0:17:10.159 This White House made a political decision on every issue, 0:17:10.880 --> 0:17:14.320 let's give the agenda to the radical left. So on immigration, 0:17:14.880 --> 0:17:18.320 it's the open border, radical left. On law enforcement, it's 0:17:18.320 --> 0:17:21.480 the abolish the police and George Soros prosecutor's radical left. 0:17:22.119 --> 0:17:29.480 On gender policy, it's the transgender mutilate children to change 0:17:29.480 --> 0:17:33.760 their gender, radical left. These are all views that have 0:17:34.480 --> 0:17:37.680 you know, a tiny percentage of support with the American people. 0:17:37.680 --> 0:17:41.680 These are not center left views. These are not center views. 0:17:41.720 --> 0:17:46.359 These are ten fifteen percent fringe views, and on every issue, 0:17:46.440 --> 0:17:50.520 that's what they follow. What is interesting is I do 0:17:50.600 --> 0:17:53.800 think a couple of White House aids and I think 0:17:53.880 --> 0:17:57.520 some Senate Democrats are realizing, Wow, this border has gotten 0:17:57.600 --> 0:18:01.200 so bad, we're vulnerable. And here's some of the evidence 0:18:01.200 --> 0:18:03.800 of that. You know, Biden tweeted out this week, we 0:18:03.880 --> 0:18:06.639 need to do more to fund securing the border, and 0:18:07.119 --> 0:18:10.080 it's just it's a deranged tweet. And of course what 0:18:10.160 --> 0:18:12.000 he tries to do is blame it on Republicans. It's 0:18:12.040 --> 0:18:14.119 Republicans that don't want to secure the border, which is 0:18:15.240 --> 0:18:22.080 it's the most bizarre loot. But the fact that he's 0:18:22.200 --> 0:18:25.639 saying it shows vulnerability. I'll tell you one of the 0:18:25.640 --> 0:18:30.360 things that I found very interesting in yesterday's hearing as 0:18:30.880 --> 0:18:36.800 I was vigorously questioning may Orchis and he started to 0:18:36.840 --> 0:18:39.439 get into real trouble and he started to panic, and 0:18:39.560 --> 0:18:41.800 he looked over at Dick Durban, who's the chairman of 0:18:41.840 --> 0:18:43.840 the committee, and he said, mister chairman, would you help me? 0:18:44.320 --> 0:18:47.720 And he kind of looked helpless and plaintiff. And I've 0:18:47.760 --> 0:18:50.399 served eleven years on judiciary with Durban. Durban and I 0:18:50.520 --> 0:18:52.960 go round and round and round. Durban is I think 0:18:53.000 --> 0:18:55.920 the smartest of the Democrats on the committee is the 0:18:55.960 --> 0:18:58.480 most effective questioner on the committee. He and I have 0:18:58.600 --> 0:19:03.640 battled a thousand times times in the Roman Coliseum arena. 0:19:03.840 --> 0:19:06.240 Dick Durban is not remotely shy to come after me, 0:19:06.280 --> 0:19:07.960 and I'm not remotely shy to come after him, and 0:19:07.960 --> 0:19:09.920 so often at these hearings he and I go round 0:19:09.960 --> 0:19:14.440 and round. I found it fascinating that when Majorcas pleaded 0:19:14.520 --> 0:19:17.399 to Durban to come in and save him, Durban just 0:19:17.440 --> 0:19:19.359 looked at him and didn't do anything. And what it 0:19:19.480 --> 0:19:22.520 said to me is Durban was like, dude, you're on 0:19:22.560 --> 0:19:25.600 your own on this one that I think Senate Democrats 0:19:25.600 --> 0:19:29.679 are not eager to get in the mud pit with Mayorcas. 0:19:30.040 --> 0:19:31.960 And I got to say, it kind of felt like 0:19:32.080 --> 0:19:33.439 and by the way, it's the only time I can 0:19:33.480 --> 0:19:36.679 think of it eleven years when Durban has refrained from 0:19:36.720 --> 0:19:39.639 coming after me on that sort of questioning. Usually it 0:19:39.680 --> 0:19:42.280 would feature Durban jumping in because he likes to do that. 0:19:43.320 --> 0:19:45.840 And I actually took it as at least for some 0:19:45.960 --> 0:19:49.960 Senate Democrats, they're getting fed up with Mayorcas and they're 0:19:49.960 --> 0:19:52.720 looking at him saying, Okay, this guy needs to be 0:19:52.720 --> 0:19:56.040 the sacrificial lamb. He needs to go down. Let's blame 0:19:56.080 --> 0:19:59.480 this whole border disaster on him, have him fired, and 0:20:00.000 --> 0:20:03.720 and focus on the midterms. I thought that was in 0:20:03.800 --> 0:20:07.320 many ways the most revealing quiet moment of the hearing. 0:20:07.880 --> 0:20:11.600 Nobody on the outside watching noticed it, but for sitting 0:20:11.680 --> 0:20:16.720 on the committee. It screamed from a mountaintop. Yeah, there's 0:20:16.720 --> 0:20:20.880 been talk about my arcas possibly being impeached for literally 0:20:20.920 --> 0:20:24.040 not doing his job, and that goes back to the 0:20:24.080 --> 0:20:26.879 most heated point of your back and forth, and I 0:20:26.880 --> 0:20:28.680 want to play that for people because it was also 0:20:28.840 --> 0:20:32.000 very telling when he got angry that you were coming 0:20:32.040 --> 0:20:34.960 after him with the facts and he was losing with 0:20:35.040 --> 0:20:37.880 those facts and then not being bailed out by Dick Durban. 0:20:37.920 --> 0:20:39.159 I'm gonna play that in a second, but let me 0:20:39.160 --> 0:20:41.280 tell you about our friends over to Gusta Precious medals. 0:20:41.600 --> 0:20:44.680 If you've been saving a long time and working really 0:20:44.680 --> 0:20:48.239 hard for your retirement, then you understand how important it 0:20:48.280 --> 0:20:50.840 is to protect your hard earned money right now with 0:20:50.920 --> 0:20:53.199 what's going on the economy.

Now it's a time for you to 0:20:59.200 --> 0:21:01.400 take a look at your portfolio and make sure that 0:21:01.560 --> 0:21:05.320 you are doing everything you can to preserve and protect 0:21:05.400 --> 0:21:08.720 your hard earned dollars. That's where precious metals come in. 0:21:09.160 --> 0:21:12.200 Gusts of precious metals, they're different. Why because they'll even 0:21:12.240 --> 0:21:16.000 tell you if a gold ira isn't your answer, it's 0:21:16.080 --> 0:21:18.719 just the facts with them now, gouts of Precious Metals 0:21:18.800 --> 0:21:22.320 all about protecting iras and four O one ks in 0:21:22.520 --> 0:21:25.840 this economy, and it's so important close to retirement because 0:21:26.119 --> 0:21:29.439 there is no time to make up losses. So if 0:21:29.480 --> 0:21:32.240 you've saved one hundred thousand dollars or more, talk to 0:21:32.400 --> 0:21:34.639 my friends August of Precious Medals, take a look at 0:21:34.640 --> 0:21:36.960 their free guide and you'll get that sent to you. 0:21:36.960 --> 0:21:39.320 You'll also you can sign up for their web conference 0:21:39.560 --> 0:21:42.800 where you meet one on one with somebody within August 0:21:42.800 --> 0:21:45.760 of Precious Medals, and I've done that. I use them 0:21:45.920 --> 0:21:49.359 call them eight seven seven four the number four gold 0:21:49.560 --> 0:21:54.720 Ira eight seven seven the number four gold Ira or 0:21:54.760 --> 0:21:59.040 online August of Precious Metals dot com. That's augusta Precious 0:21:59.080 --> 0:22:02.320 Metals dot Com Center. One of the most contentious parts 0:22:02.320 --> 0:22:05.280 of the back and forth with you and ma Orcas 0:22:05.560 --> 0:22:08.240 was clearly after Durban wasn't going to bail them out, 0:22:08.480 --> 0:22:11.000 and this was one of the most brilliant moments I've 0:22:11.000 --> 0:22:13.400 seen in a long time. Take a listen the photograph 0:22:13.480 --> 0:22:16.720 from just one day along the Rio Grand of hundreds 0:22:16.720 --> 0:22:20.000 of thousands of people walking across the border. You have 0:22:20.160 --> 0:22:24.080 allowed this to happen the photograph that was before. What 0:22:24.480 --> 0:22:28.080 are these risk fans? I don't know what they are. 0:22:28.359 --> 0:22:31.720 You don't know what they are, mister Secretary. You have 0:22:31.800 --> 0:22:34.520 just testified to the American people you're incompetent at your job. 0:22:34.720 --> 0:22:36.680 Because I've been to the southern border, and if you 0:22:36.760 --> 0:22:39.639 go to the southern border. Along the southern border, you 0:22:39.840 --> 0:22:43.400
