Senator, We've got a lot to 0:00:10.039 --> 0:00:13.200 talk about on this week's show, including some shocking news 0:00:13.280 --> 0:00:16.560 involves FBI raids. On top of the fact that the 0:00:16.640 --> 0:00:20.959 DOJ has launched a federal probe into America's worst Soros 0:00:21.040 --> 0:00:26.680 DA over preferential treatment for legal immigrants plural. 0:00:27.120 --> 0:00:31.080 Well, we have corruption in Virginia Soros das. We have 0:00:31.280 --> 0:00:34.080 the head of the Virginia Senate being rated by the 0:00:34.200 --> 0:00:41.400 FBI for corruption. We also have extraordinarily enough, a Democratic 0:00:41.479 --> 0:00:46.120 member of the House trying to smuggle fuel into Communist 0:00:46.240 --> 0:00:49.680 Cuba because she supports the communist over the United States 0:00:49.720 --> 0:00:51.879 of America. We're also going to discuss I had a 0:00:51.960 --> 0:00:56.480 chance to visit Neuralink, an incredible company in Texas that 0:00:56.640 --> 0:01:00.600 is literally doing science fiction. But before all of that, Ben, 0:01:01.480 --> 0:01:03.440 I want to take a moment to say thank you 0:01:04.319 --> 0:01:07.480 to our incredible listeners and viewers, everyone on the radio, 0:01:07.520 --> 0:01:10.880 everyone on the podcast, everyone watching on YouTube. Look, we 0:01:11.040 --> 0:01:14.000 do this show three days a week and it's a 0:01:14.040 --> 0:01:16.600 lot of hours. It's right now eleven forty eight pm. 0:01:16.720 --> 0:01:20.039 We do it late at night, and there are times 0:01:20.120 --> 0:01:25.120 when I'm tired, and there are times when Ben is 0:01:25.360 --> 0:01:34.280 frankly dysfunctional and hiccupping like a sick leper on the road. 0:01:35.200 --> 0:01:38.720 Yes, yes, yes, So for people that miss let's just 0:01:38.760 --> 0:01:41.520 be clear about where you're going with this. So I 0:01:41.560 --> 0:01:44.200 have got a back injury. They gave me some medicine. 0:01:44.280 --> 0:01:46.560 It gave me my hiccups is one of the side effects. 0:01:47.080 --> 0:01:50.080 And in the last show, I got the hiccups. It 0:01:50.120 --> 0:01:51.600 just could not get rid of them all day. By 0:01:51.640 --> 0:01:53.000 the way, I didn't go to bed to But. 0:01:52.920 --> 0:01:55.880 By the way, for an audio podcast, for an audio 0:01:55.920 --> 0:02:01.000 podcast or a radio show, having the host go like 0:02:01.520 --> 0:02:06.640 every twelve seconds, yeah, I'm just saying for an ordinary listener, 0:02:06.720 --> 0:02:08.960 that would be annoying. But I want to take the 0:02:08.960 --> 0:02:13.639 moment to sank our listeners because they endured it. And 0:02:13.639 --> 0:02:15.920 and Ben, can you read like like like some of 0:02:15.919 --> 0:02:19.120 the comments the listeners made because they embraced you, they 0:02:19.480 --> 0:02:20.040 loved you. 0:02:20.560 --> 0:02:24.840 Yeah, my phone stopped working. There was lots of thoughts 0:02:24.880 --> 0:02:27.799 and prayers and there was some Dearest Ben, you gave 0:02:27.800 --> 0:02:31.240 me the best slow creeping smile I've ever had I've 0:02:31.280 --> 0:02:33.040 had in a while. That was one of them, said, 0:02:33.120 --> 0:02:35.200 I did have a little Brandy. You were so committed 0:02:35.320 --> 0:02:37.800 that see, there you go. I am committed to the show, Senator, 0:02:38.320 --> 0:02:41.760 even with the hiccups, I power through to fight the 0:02:41.800 --> 0:02:44.520 comedies every day. So the other I will say the 0:02:44.720 --> 0:02:45.560 number of sides. 0:02:45.600 --> 0:02:48.480 So like to be clear, man, I was impressive. I 0:02:48.919 --> 0:02:51.320 for one, I'm not sure it was about a back injury. 0:02:51.360 --> 0:02:54.320 I just think you were hammered and hicketping because you 0:02:54.400 --> 0:02:56.560 had like ninety two beers that night. 0:02:57.000 --> 0:02:57.959 Yeah, yeah, that's it. 0:02:59.760 --> 0:03:01.960 I have no basis in fact, I just figured i'd 0:03:02.000 --> 0:03:02.960 say that because it's fun. 0:03:03.480 --> 0:03:07.440 Yeah, because it's fun. I do appreciate all the Verdict 0:03:07.480 --> 0:03:10.000 listeners who sent in and made sure that I had 0:03:10.120 --> 0:03:14.320 every possible hiccup remedy in the history of mankind. So 0:03:14.480 --> 0:03:18.080 they were they're committed listeners that gave. 0:03:18.880 --> 0:03:22.880 Last time, I told told Ben my father's rule. Yeah, 0:03:23.000 --> 0:03:25.600 which is in eighty seven years in life, he has 0:03:25.639 --> 0:03:29.000 never hiccup twice. And I got to say, I love 0:03:29.040 --> 0:03:32.000 my dad, but he's not a terribly shall we say, 0:03:33.400 --> 0:03:37.680 understanding soul. There you go, and he really does. I've 0:03:37.720 --> 0:03:40.200 hiccuped twice, and and and and he really does view 0:03:40.240 --> 0:03:42.960 it as a fundamental moral failing. Not saying anything, Ben, 0:03:42.960 --> 0:03:45.080 I'm just saying that's my dad's world view. 0:03:45.520 --> 0:03:47.600 I did, true story. I did go to bed after 0:03:47.600 --> 0:03:49.400 four am because I could not get them to stop. 0:03:49.480 --> 0:03:50.160 It was that long. 0:03:50.200 --> 0:03:52.720 Are you look at that? That sucks? I'm sorry man, 0:03:52.760 --> 0:03:54.040 that it was. 0:03:54.160 --> 0:03:56.880 It was. It was four hours straight before the show. 0:03:56.920 --> 0:03:59.200 Then they went away, then they started halfway through the show, 0:03:59.240 --> 0:04:01.200 and then literally I could not go to bed until 0:04:01.200 --> 0:04:02.040 about four fifteen. 0:04:02.360 --> 0:04:04.520 Okay, that's a nightmare, all right. Let me talk about 0:04:04.560 --> 0:04:09.320 something worse. Let's talk about commie prosecutors in Virginia.

Now, all right, now back to your press 0:05:29.480 --> 0:05:31.680 conference and the and the and the and everything that 0:05:31.720 --> 0:05:33.240 we've got in detail on this story. 0:05:34.279 --> 0:05:37.320 Press release for the Department of Justice. Justice Department notifies 0:05:37.400 --> 0:05:42.279 Fairfax County, Virginia Commonwealth Attorney of investigation into his plea 0:05:42.320 --> 0:05:48.800 bargaining charging decisions and sentencing policy. Today, the Justice Department 0:05:48.839 --> 0:05:53.800 notified the Fairfax County, Virginia Commonwealth's Attorney, Steve Descano, of 0:05:53.880 --> 0:05:57.200 the initiation of a federal investigation of the commonwealth attorneys 0:05:57.480 --> 0:06:01.640 flea bargaining charging decisions and sentencing policy. The Justice Department 0:06:01.720 --> 0:06:05.960 Civil Rights Division will investigate whether the Office of the 0:06:06.000 --> 0:06:13.560 Fairfax Commonwealth's Attorney discriminated against United States citizens by offering 0:06:13.680 --> 0:06:23.479 preferential treatment only to illegal alien criminal defendants. Now, stop 0:06:23.560 --> 0:06:26.960 for a second. How is this possible? What kind of 0:06:27.080 --> 0:06:31.440 prosecutor that says, given every criminal defendant in front of us, 0:06:32.400 --> 0:06:37.760 let's discriminate against US citizens and let's favor illegal aliens. Well, 0:06:38.640 --> 0:06:42.720 that is, in fact what is happening in Northern Virginia. 0:06:43.320 --> 0:06:46.600 It's not only happening, but I think when you look 0:06:46.640 --> 0:06:50.880 at the reach, what you realize is George Soros understood 0:06:51.520 --> 0:06:53.560 that he was going to be able to buy access 0:06:54.080 --> 0:06:56.960 to power. He was going to be able to then 0:06:57.480 --> 0:07:00.680 use those individuals however he wanted to, because he's the 0:07:00.680 --> 0:07:04.400 one that got them elected, and that meant going easy 0:07:04.560 --> 0:07:07.440 on the people that he said, regardless of what the 0:07:07.520 --> 0:07:12.840 law says, are the actual criminal illegal immigrants, including if 0:07:12.840 --> 0:07:15.680 they are committing HAINUS crimes. If he says you let 0:07:15.760 --> 0:07:18.120 him go, you look the other way. I'm the one 0:07:18.120 --> 0:07:21.800 that got you elected. Apparently that's exactly what happened in 0:07:21.800 --> 0:07:22.600 this scenario. 0:07:23.040 --> 0:07:25.560 Well, let me go through the facts and There's an 0:07:25.640 --> 0:07:31.640 article written by Tim Carning entitled Tim Steve Descano America's 0:07:32.040 --> 0:07:38.520 worst prosecutor. Here's what it says. Murderers, rapists, perverts, and pimps. 0:07:39.240 --> 0:07:43.560 These are the folks served by Fairfax County Prosecutor Steve Descano, 0:07:43.640 --> 0:07:47.000 The George Soros funded commonwealth attorney for the su Bourbon 0:07:47.040 --> 0:07:51.080 county of one million, has openly stated he won't enforce 0:07:51.160 --> 0:07:55.320 the law when it clashes with his ideology. The results 0:07:55.480 --> 0:07:59.200 have been ugly. Richard Cox was already a serial sex 0:07:59.240 --> 0:08:02.480 offender when he exposed himself in a women's locker room 0:08:02.480 --> 0:08:06.320 in Fairfax, but Discano let him go, and he proceeded 0:08:06.320 --> 0:08:10.520 to expose himself in a high school girl's locker room. 0:08:10.840 --> 0:08:15.800 Abdul Jalla was arrested more than thirty times, including for 0:08:15.880 --> 0:08:21.080 malicious wounding, but was repeatedly set free. He is now 0:08:21.120 --> 0:08:25.880 accused of stabbing Stephanie Mintner to death. On February twenty third, 0:08:26.640 --> 0:08:33.920 Gret Glire was executed in his bed in a calculated assassination. 0:08:34.760 --> 0:08:39.000 Descano last month let the killer go with an insanity 0:08:39.000 --> 0:08:43.320 plea and a Chinese pimp ran a brothel in a 0:08:43.360 --> 0:08:48.000 residential neighborhood across the street from a school bus stop. 0:08:48.880 --> 0:08:51.080 While police did everything they could to shut it down, 0:08:51.640 --> 0:08:55.760 Discano's office dropped the prostitution charges and let the place 0:08:55.840 --> 0:08:59.720 continue operating until the Republican Attorney General got it shuddered. 0:09:00.520 --> 0:09:02.480 These are just a few of the stories that illustrate 0:09:02.520 --> 0:09:08.240 Discano's extreme tolerance of criminals and harmed constituents. Discano is 0:09:08.280 --> 0:09:12.600 in office because of left wing billionaire George Soros. Discano 0:09:12.679 --> 0:09:16.120 was first elected as Fairfax County's Commonwealth Attorney in twenty nineteen, 0:09:16.720 --> 0:09:19.680 when he knocked off the incumbent Raymond Morrow in the 0:09:19.720 --> 0:09:24.720 Democrat primary, winning by fifteen hundred votes in a low 0:09:24.760 --> 0:09:31.319 turnout election. Discano raised about one million dollars one million 0:09:31.360 --> 0:09:34.559 dollars between the primary and the general election, a shocking 0:09:34.600 --> 0:09:38.320 amount for a down ballot county race. About two thirds 0:09:38.320 --> 0:09:42.240 of his cash came from two Soros funded organizations, the 0:09:42.440 --> 0:09:45.760 Justice and Public Safety Pack and the New Virginia Majority Pack. 0:09:46.440 --> 0:09:50.199 This is a pattern, It's a pattern over and over again, 0:09:51.080 --> 0:09:54.160 George Soros and the radical leftist the Mark Fisks. Then 0:09:55.040 --> 0:09:58.680 they've discovered a vulnerability in our democracy, in our constitutional republic, 0:09:59.240 --> 0:10:01.880 which is they can can elect what are now called 0:10:01.960 --> 0:10:06.400 Soros das, and these are das that make the decision 0:10:06.559 --> 0:10:10.480 we're going to release murderers, we're going to release rapists, 0:10:10.800 --> 0:10:13.360 We're going to lease violent criminals. You know, you think 0:10:13.400 --> 0:10:16.920 about it. Virtually every Democrat in the Senate has voted 0:10:16.960 --> 0:10:19.800 repeatedly in favor of abolishing the police. That is a 0:10:19.960 --> 0:10:24.160 radical and nutty idea. Five years ago, if you asked 0:10:24.240 --> 0:10:26.640 any person or your favor of abolishing the police, people 0:10:26.640 --> 0:10:30.360 would say no, no, that's crazy. Well, today's Democrat party 0:10:30.400 --> 0:10:34.079 that is now mainstream. There are two ways you abolish 0:10:34.120 --> 0:10:36.760 the police. One, you cut off the funding and shut 0:10:36.800 --> 0:10:39.920 down the police. And we've seen Democrat cities do that 0:10:39.960 --> 0:10:44.360 from New York City to Minneapolis to sadly Austin, Texas 0:10:44.440 --> 0:10:47.040 and our home state of Texas. But the second way 0:10:47.080 --> 0:10:51.000 you abolish the police is you elect a Soorros DA. 0:10:51.120 --> 0:10:54.080 You flood millions of dollars from George Soros, you elect 0:10:54.080 --> 0:10:56.840 a DA. And by the way, the police cannot enforce 0:10:56.920 --> 0:10:59.800 the law. If the DA will not prosecute, doesn't do 0:10:59.800 --> 0:11:02.240 any good for the police to arrest someone. If the 0:11:02.320 --> 0:11:04.400 DA says, you know what, we're going to let these 0:11:04.480 --> 0:11:07.760 violent criminals go, and so now you've got the Department 0:11:07.800 --> 0:11:12.400 of Justice going after this elected Soros DA for giving 0:11:12.559 --> 0:11:17.440 sweetheart deals to illegal immigrants and favoring illegal immigrants over 0:11:18.080 --> 0:11:21.920 US citizens. It is shocking, And the most shocking thing 0:11:22.080 --> 0:11:27.440 is it's not shocking that is. Look, I think George 0:11:27.520 --> 0:11:31.440 Soros and his team of cronies have discovered a vulnerability 0:11:31.480 --> 0:11:35.040 in our democrat society and and and we need to 0:11:35.200 --> 0:11:36.280 fight back against this. 0:11:37.240 --> 0:11:39.120 How do you fight back against this? I mean, when 0:11:39.160 --> 0:11:41.480 you when you see the deals that are being made, 0:11:42.280 --> 0:11:45.600 I think every American should be outraged over this. Illegal 0:11:45.640 --> 0:11:49.400 immigrants should not be able to walk away from the 0:11:49.480 --> 0:11:52.559 laws that they're breaking, but American systems be held accountable 0:11:52.960 --> 0:11:56.160 for breaking those same laws. But if you, as you mentioned, 0:11:56.240 --> 0:12:00.240 if you have a DA that decides to do this us, 0:12:00.679 --> 0:12:04.199 what are our options after that? And when you look 0:12:04.240 --> 0:12:08.080 into this investigation, I gotta say, this can't be just 0:12:08.160 --> 0:12:12.000 happening in one place. It's probably happening by activist das 0:12:12.040 --> 0:12:14.720 all over the country. If this is the kickback that 0:12:14.760 --> 0:12:17.000 in essence Soros was guaranteeing himself. 0:12:17.200 --> 0:12:18.920 Yeah, the way you do it, as you do what 0:12:18.960 --> 0:12:20.920 we're doing right now, you shine a light on it. 0:12:21.240 --> 0:12:23.160 You go to feed him in elections, you go run 0:12:23.200 --> 0:12:25.560 candidates against him, You go run and say, let me 0:12:25.559 --> 0:12:29.040 say a radical idea, violent criminals should be in jail. 0:12:29.080 --> 0:12:32.760 Let me give you some facts about Fairfax County DA 0:12:32.920 --> 0:12:37.840 Steve Descano.

Landed and one tanker has enough oil basically 0:16:52.720 --> 0:16:56.880 for ten to fourteen days Of cuba's oil, needs so 0:16:57.160 --> 0:17:00.200 it's a very limited amount of.
