After 177 00:10:56,200 --> 00:10:58,680 Speaker 10: several days of the pattern of the individual finally emerged 178 00:10:59,000 --> 00:11:03,360 Speaker 10: in custody on our list, Operation Peekaboo I Seize You. 179 00:11:03,520 --> 00:11:07,160 Speaker 10: Suspects repeatedly hid behind doors, furniture, and one large houseplant. 180 00:11:07,320 --> 00:11:11,360 Speaker 10: Briefly successful but ultimately ineffective, and we end on one 181 00:11:11,360 --> 00:11:15,040 Speaker 10: of the more controversial missions. We executed operation. If you 182 00:11:15,120 --> 00:11:17,880 Speaker 10: give a mouse a deportation hearing, that's predicted. He asked 183 00:11:17,920 --> 00:11:21,440 Speaker 10: for a translator, then a lawyer, then asylum, then a snack, 184 00:11:21,679 --> 00:11:24,960 Speaker 10: and then a ride home. This operation remains ongoing. That 185 00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:27,480 Speaker 10: concludes the briefing everybody. If there are no further questions, 186 00:11:27,520 --> 00:11:31,600 Speaker 10: will reconvene tomorrow to discuss operation where the wild things went. 187 00:11:32,160 --> 00:11:34,479 Speaker 6: Have a good afternoon, everybody. 188 00:11:34,679 --> 00:11:37,240 Speaker 2: The CEO of Ford Voters, Jim Barley, says they have 189 00:11:37,480 --> 00:11:42,160 Speaker 2: five thousand mechanic jobs paying one hundred twenty thousand dollars 190 00:11:42,240 --> 00:11:45,920 Speaker 2: per year that they simply cannot fill. As of this morning, 191 00:11:45,960 --> 00:11:49,200 Speaker 2: we had five thousand openings. A bay with a lift 192 00:11:49,320 --> 00:11:52,480 Speaker 2: and tools and no one to work in it. One 193 00:11:52,600 --> 00:11:56,160 Speaker 2: hundred and twenty thousand dollars a job a year, but 194 00:11:56,240 --> 00:11:59,560 Speaker 2: it takes you five years to learn it. 195 00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:03,680 Speaker 9: Central economy, we are in trouble in our country. We 196 00:12:03,760 --> 00:12:07,680 Speaker 9: are not talking about this enough. We have over a 197 00:12:07,760 --> 00:12:16,640 Speaker 9: million openings in critical jobs, emergency services, trucking, factory workers, plumbers, electricians, 198 00:12:16,640 --> 00:12:20,760 Speaker 9: and tradesmen. It's a very serious thing. We do not 199 00:12:20,880 --> 00:12:24,800 Speaker 9: have trade schools. We are not investing in educating a 200 00:12:24,920 --> 00:12:30,120 Speaker 9: next generation of people like my grandfather who had nothing, 201 00:12:30,440 --> 00:12:33,400 Speaker 9: who built a middle class life and a future for 202 00:12:33,440 --> 00:12:37,040 Speaker 9: his family. Those jobs are out there. Mechanics and a 203 00:12:37,040 --> 00:12:40,400 Speaker 9: Ford dealership. As of this morning, we had five thousand 204 00:12:40,400 --> 00:12:44,280 Speaker 9: openings a bay with a lift and tools and no 205 00:12:44,320 --> 00:12:44,960 Speaker 9: one to work in it. 206 00:12:45,080 --> 00:12:45,800 Speaker 7: Are you kidding me? 207 00:12:46,400 --> 00:12:49,520 Speaker 9: One hundred and twenty thousand dollars a job a year, 208 00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:52,520 Speaker 9: but it takes you five years to learn it. Take 209 00:12:52,520 --> 00:12:54,560 Speaker 9: a diesel out of a super duty. It takes a 210 00:12:54,600 --> 00:12:57,040 Speaker 9: lot of skill. You need to know what you're doing. 211 00:12:58,040 --> 00:13:00,320 Speaker 9: And God forbid we ever get in a war or 212 00:13:00,559 --> 00:13:04,200 Speaker 9: Google's not gonna be able to make the tanks and 213 00:13:04,240 --> 00:13:04,880 Speaker 9: the planes. 214 00:13:05,559 --> 00:13:07,679 Speaker 1: So this is a self. 215 00:13:07,440 --> 00:13:10,840 Speaker 9: Defense for a country issue. But how I think about 216 00:13:10,880 --> 00:13:13,040 Speaker 9: it is if we work together like we always have 217 00:13:13,120 --> 00:13:17,280 Speaker 9: in America, we shine a light on the problem and 218 00:13:17,320 --> 00:13:20,559 Speaker 9: we start getting people together like we did, it accelerate 219 00:13:20,600 --> 00:13:24,720 Speaker 9: here in Detroit, like minded people with similar problems, Roger Pence, 220 00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:28,280 Speaker 9: lots of other CEOs, and we get after this with 221 00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:33,040 Speaker 9: the government with education. I think we can solve this. 222 00:13:33,240 --> 00:13:35,880 Speaker 9: But we have a lot of work to do, and 223 00:13:35,960 --> 00:13:39,640 Speaker 9: I'm very humbled. I'm late in my life. These jobs 224 00:13:39,640 --> 00:13:44,640 Speaker 9: gave me the ability to go through graduate school. And 225 00:13:44,200 --> 00:13:49,280 Speaker 9: we are in deep trouble when you compare us to China. 226 00:13:49,320 --> 00:13:51,040 Speaker 2: I do see this problem, and I think it's a 227 00:13:51,080 --> 00:13:56,679 Speaker 2: serious one. It's an education promim it's also a cultural problem. 228 00:13:57,280 --> 00:14:02,160 Speaker 2: I think that for so long, even people in the 229 00:14:02,160 --> 00:14:06,280 Speaker 2: trades who made a good living, maybe built their own 230 00:14:06,360 --> 00:14:14,880 Speaker 2: company plumbing, electrical, mechanical, but they wanted that the sign 231 00:14:15,320 --> 00:14:19,600 Speaker 2: the impromoter of success, and that was that you wear 232 00:14:19,640 --> 00:14:23,200 Speaker 2: a suit when you go to an office and you 233 00:14:23,200 --> 00:14:26,880 Speaker 2: have a college degree. And so once that person does that, 234 00:14:27,920 --> 00:14:30,080 Speaker 2: they don't think they should ever use their hands again. 235 00:14:31,760 --> 00:14:35,480 Speaker 2: So I spoke to the Independent Electrical Contractors Association a 236 00:14:35,520 --> 00:14:36,080 Speaker 2: few years ago. 237 00:14:36,120 --> 00:14:38,280 Speaker 1: The guys at pool wires for non union. 238 00:14:38,840 --> 00:14:43,120 Speaker 2: Electric electrical jobs, and it was the graduating class, and 239 00:14:43,160 --> 00:14:47,920 Speaker 2: they were I don't remember forty guys there, thirty eight 240 00:14:47,960 --> 00:14:52,400 Speaker 2: of them guys, two women, let's say, and seventy percent 241 00:14:52,440 --> 00:14:55,440 Speaker 2: of them more Hispanic first generation families. 242 00:14:56,680 --> 00:14:59,000 Speaker 1: I don't. I guess white kids think they just shouldn't 243 00:14:59,000 --> 00:15:01,480 Speaker 1: do jobs like this. Can you get a four year 244 00:15:01,520 --> 00:15:03,040 Speaker 1: degree and what are you gonna do. 245 00:15:05,120 --> 00:15:05,560 Speaker 7: Separately? 246 00:15:07,560 --> 00:15:21,720 Speaker 12: Oh?

It's going to 314 00:19:29,320 --> 00:19:32,160 Speaker 2: be terrible. Well, first of all, the Jets were interesting 315 00:19:32,200 --> 00:19:34,879 Speaker 2: for the first time in a while, and then he 316 00:19:34,920 --> 00:19:38,480 Speaker 2: went to the Vikings and damned if he didn't almost 317 00:19:38,480 --> 00:19:40,760 Speaker 2: get him back to the super Bowl, and he was 318 00:19:40,800 --> 00:19:44,359 Speaker 2: having fun. The team decided he gave him the best 319 00:19:44,440 --> 00:19:46,520 Speaker 2: chance of winning, and that's really the only person that 320 00:19:46,560 --> 00:19:49,680 Speaker 2: matters that and the fans and fans were excited to 321 00:19:49,680 --> 00:19:51,720 Speaker 2: see him, except for Packers fans, and that's only because 322 00:19:51,720 --> 00:19:55,960 Speaker 2: he's good. I've never understood this desire to tell people 323 00:19:56,359 --> 00:19:57,960 Speaker 2: you know, I want you. 324 00:19:58,880 --> 00:19:59,640 Speaker 1: I want you to be. 325 00:19:59,600 --> 00:20:01,760 Speaker 2: Someone I really like and I'm a big fan of. 326 00:20:02,640 --> 00:20:04,680 Speaker 2: But the second you hit a certain age, I want 327 00:20:04,720 --> 00:20:07,400 Speaker 2: you to just go away and your life. 328 00:20:07,160 --> 00:20:09,240 Speaker 1: Doesn't matter, because you're really just a commodity to me. 329 00:20:09,960 --> 00:20:12,119 Speaker 2: It would be better if I could be wistful for 330 00:20:12,160 --> 00:20:15,800 Speaker 2: you ever coming back, But you don't come back. That's stupid. 331 00:20:15,880 --> 00:20:19,919 Speaker 2: I mean, that kind of logic is just stupid anyway. 332 00:20:20,840 --> 00:20:23,480 Speaker 2: I don't I don't see a problem with these old 333 00:20:23,520 --> 00:20:25,880 Speaker 2: rockers getting up there. I don't think rockers today will 334 00:20:25,880 --> 00:20:27,680 Speaker 2: be doing that. I love that Coverdale is up at 335 00:20:27,720 --> 00:20:32,159 Speaker 2: seventy four years old. Prancing around or kiss or Mick Jagger. 336 00:20:31,800 --> 00:20:32,359 Speaker 1: For that matter. 337 00:20:33,080 --> 00:20:36,040 Speaker 2: But what people get a kick out of is they're 338 00:20:36,119 --> 00:20:37,920 Speaker 2: up there in leather and. 339 00:20:37,840 --> 00:20:38,760 Speaker 1: They stay skinny. 340 00:20:39,160 --> 00:20:42,080 Speaker 2: You know, drugs will do that, and they're prancing around 341 00:20:42,160 --> 00:20:44,840 Speaker 2: like they're still in their twenties.

Those 409 00:25:14,600 --> 00:25:18,720 Speaker 11: important rights also come with profound responsibility. We believe the 410 00:25:18,720 --> 00:25:22,480 Speaker 11: evidence demonstrates this defendant crossed the line by firing outside 411 00:25:22,520 --> 00:25:25,480 Speaker 11: his home at fleeing persons.

He says Nappin was 413 00:25:28,680 --> 00:25:33,600 Speaker 11: startled and this case is one of quote stone self defense, 414 00:25:33,880 --> 00:25:36,320 Speaker 11: and he believes Napping should have never been charged. 415 00:25:36,960 --> 00:25:40,399 Speaker 2: The New York Post Miranda Divine has uncovered the digital 416 00:25:40,400 --> 00:25:43,840 Speaker 2: footprint of the man who tried to murder President Trump 417 00:25:43,880 --> 00:25:48,800 Speaker 2: in Butler, Pennsylvania. We were told by Biden's administration, we 418 00:25:48,840 --> 00:25:50,960 Speaker 2: don't know much about this guy. We don't know anything 419 00:25:50,960 --> 00:25:54,720 Speaker 2: about his intentions. Oh, yes we do. This is really good. 420 00:25:55,160 --> 00:25:58,640 Speaker 14: It's quite a different story to the one that Chris 421 00:25:58,800 --> 00:26:02,840 Speaker 14: Ferray and he's pitty paul A Bait told Congress just 422 00:26:03,080 --> 00:26:07,040 Speaker 14: in a couple of weeks after that assassination attempt, and 423 00:26:07,280 --> 00:26:10,960 Speaker 14: we were sort of led to believe that Thomas Crooks 424 00:26:11,080 --> 00:26:13,600 Speaker 14: was really a ghost, that there was no motive that 425 00:26:13,640 --> 00:26:18,199 Speaker 14: could be ascertained from his online accounts. And yet a 426 00:26:18,320 --> 00:26:23,240 Speaker 14: source has provided us with a lot of information from 427 00:26:23,400 --> 00:26:28,560 Speaker 14: seventeen different online accounts that Thomas Crooks had, and they 428 00:26:28,680 --> 00:26:33,160 Speaker 14: ranged from Google Play to that sight you reference before 429 00:26:33,160 --> 00:26:37,520 Speaker 14: called deviant art, which is probably the biggest still one 430 00:26:37,560 --> 00:26:43,520 Speaker 14: of the biggest hubs online for this sexual fetish called furies, 431 00:26:43,640 --> 00:26:49,320 Speaker 14: where people dress up or fantasize about animal characters, cartoon 432 00:26:49,400 --> 00:26:53,560 Speaker 14: characters that are sort of humanized, and so it's very bizarre. 433 00:26:53,600 --> 00:26:57,880 Speaker 14: But we also saw that with Charlie Kirk's killer, alleged 434 00:26:57,960 --> 00:27:01,119 Speaker 14: killer Tyler Robinson, who was also and involved in this 435 00:27:01,600 --> 00:27:05,199 Speaker 14: bizarre fury culture. So there's not a lot that my 436 00:27:05,320 --> 00:27:09,480 Speaker 14: source discovered on those lines, but there was a little 437 00:27:09,520 --> 00:27:14,119 Speaker 14: bit the fact that this guy, Thomas Crooks was interested 438 00:27:14,359 --> 00:27:15,920 Speaker 14: in this furry sight. 439 00:27:16,359 --> 00:27:19,120 Speaker 1: I've spent a lot of time there, had. 440 00:27:19,040 --> 00:27:23,200 Speaker 14: Various images that he liked and reposted and also gave 441 00:27:23,240 --> 00:27:26,680 Speaker 14: his pronouns as they them. But I think the more 442 00:27:26,760 --> 00:27:31,480 Speaker 14: important part is what the comments his online comments from 443 00:27:31,520 --> 00:27:35,400 Speaker 14: he was very young, I mean fifteen, sixteen seventeen show 444 00:27:35,480 --> 00:27:39,800 Speaker 14: us about how he became increasingly violent and sort of 445 00:27:39,920 --> 00:27:45,119 Speaker 14: radicalized against Democrats. He was pro Trump, and then in 446 00:27:45,200 --> 00:27:47,560 Speaker 14: January of twenty twenty he flipped. 447 00:27:47,240 --> 00:27:48,680 Speaker 6: One hundred and eighty degrees. 448 00:27:49,160 --> 00:27:53,959 Speaker 14: Something happened to make him become rapidly anti Trump, and 449 00:27:54,000 --> 00:27:57,760 Speaker 14: again his rhetoric took more and more of a violent turn. 450 00:27:58,160 --> 00:28:02,480 Speaker 14: He started brushing up against There was a neo Nazi 451 00:28:03,000 --> 00:28:07,760 Speaker 14: by the name fake name, probably William Teppers, who started 452 00:28:07,840 --> 00:28:12,400 Speaker 14: encouraging crooks in more and more violent retoric. And then 453 00:28:12,640 --> 00:28:16,040 Speaker 14: suddenly something happened in August of twenty twenty and he 454 00:28:16,200 --> 00:28:20,400 Speaker 14: just disappeared online, very unusual. And then of course in 455 00:28:20,560 --> 00:28:23,920 Speaker 14: July twenty twenty four, he fired off eight shots from 456 00:28:24,000 --> 00:28:27,640 Speaker 14: a rooftop at Donald Trump at that rally in Butler, 457 00:28:28,000 --> 00:28:32,040 Speaker 14: killing Corey Comparatory who was sitting behind Donald Trump, and 458 00:28:32,080 --> 00:28:36,359 Speaker 14: badly injuring two other rally goers and hitting Donald Trump 459 00:28:36,440 --> 00:28:40,600 Speaker 14: in the ear. Only by a miracle did Donald Trump 460 00:28:40,680 --> 00:28:41,920 Speaker 14: not get killed that day. 461 00:28:42,920 --> 00:28:46,880 Speaker 2: In the Party of Democracy, Chicago Democrat Rep. Chewy Garcia 462 00:28:46,920 --> 00:28:49,480 Speaker 2: filed for reelection on October twenty seventh. Then after the 463 00:28:49,520 --> 00:28:52,360 Speaker 2: November third filing dead Gilen, he announced he would not 464 00:28:52,640 --> 00:28:56,520 Speaker 2: file for reelection so he could basically hand the seat 465 00:28:56,520 --> 00:28:59,240 Speaker 2: to his chief of staff since he coordinated with her before, 466 00:28:59,840 --> 00:29:02,280 Speaker 2: so she filed paperwork to run. This is what they 467 00:29:02,320 --> 00:29:04,000 Speaker 2: do so they can just keep control of a seat. 468 00:29:04,840 --> 00:29:10,440 Speaker 2: Washington Democrat Congressman Marie Glusen camp Perez introduced a resolution 469 00:29:10,600 --> 00:29:13,600 Speaker 2: condemning the move by Garcia, saying it is undermining the 470 00:29:13,640 --> 00:29:16,320 Speaker 2: process of a fair and free election and claims his 471 00:29:16,400 --> 00:29:19,000 Speaker 2: actions are incompatible with the spirit of the Constitution. 472 00:29:19,880 --> 00:29:24,120 Speaker 1: No, actually, you can do that. You can absolutely do that. 473 00:29:24,720 --> 00:29:28,560 Speaker 2: The problem is that people let the incumbent have a 474 00:29:28,560 --> 00:29:34,400 Speaker 2: free go of it. So that's really your fault for 475 00:29:34,520 --> 00:29:38,480 Speaker 2: doing that. Typical Chicago land when most of the kids 476 00:29:38,520 --> 00:29:40,800 Speaker 2: in the Chicago Public school system can't read at their 477 00:29:40,800 --> 00:29:45,520 Speaker 2: grade level. A new OIG report finds lavish travel by 478 00:29:45,560 --> 00:29:50,880 Speaker 2: public school employees Hawaii, Egypt, Vegas, Finland. That's the money 479 00:29:50,880 --> 00:29:54,400 Speaker 2: that should have gone to the kids. Oh, it's professional development, 480 00:29:54,440 --> 00:29:55,160 Speaker 2: that's what they call it. 481 00:29:55,160 --> 00:29:55,719 Speaker 1: It's vacation. 482 00:29:56,520 --> 00:29:58,479 Speaker 2: The mayor who always has something to say about everything, 483 00:29:58,960 --> 00:30:05,400 Speaker 2: no comment. The Chicago public school systems travel expenditures more 484 00:30:05,440 --> 00:30:09,360 Speaker 2: than doubled between twenty nineteen and twenty twenty four, going 485 00:30:09,360 --> 00:30:11,800 Speaker 2: from three point six million to seven point seven million. 486 00:30:12,760 --> 00:30:17,440 Speaker 2: One principal attended seven conferences in two years. Do some 487 00:30:17,560 --> 00:30:20,400 Speaker 2: checking and see who's sleeping with that principle.
