Today, 12 00:00:53,360 --> 00:00:56,760 Speaker 1: Israeli Prime Minister Nettan Yaho is at the White House 13 00:00:56,800 --> 00:00:59,680 Speaker 1: for a meeting with President Trump. Now Nettan Yahoo is 14 00:00:59,680 --> 00:01:03,080 Speaker 1: from first visit with a foreign leader. We are waiting 15 00:01:03,120 --> 00:01:06,040 Speaker 1: a joint press conference that will happen later today and 16 00:01:06,040 --> 00:01:08,280 Speaker 1: we'll be short of tuned right into that once it 17 00:01:08,280 --> 00:01:08,880 Speaker 1: takes place. 18 00:01:09,080 --> 00:01:12,080 Speaker 4: And also happening today, RFK Junior has just been approved 19 00:01:12,080 --> 00:01:15,080 Speaker 4: by the Senate Finance Committee as the next Secretary of 20 00:01:15,080 --> 00:01:18,160 Speaker 4: Health and Human Services, advancing his nomination to a full 21 00:01:18,200 --> 00:01:21,360 Speaker 4: Senate vote. The vote was fourteen to thirteen, with Louisiana 22 00:01:21,400 --> 00:01:25,520 Speaker 4: Senator Bill Cassidy, casting the decisive vote in favor. Elizabeth 23 00:01:25,560 --> 00:01:28,880 Speaker 4: Warren was quick to argue this decision take a Listen stated, 24 00:01:29,319 --> 00:01:29,759 Speaker 4: this is. 25 00:01:29,720 --> 00:01:33,600 Speaker 6: Not only about a private company that gets sued and 26 00:01:33,760 --> 00:01:39,280 Speaker 6: has to pay out. Vaccine manufacturers often operate on very 27 00:01:39,319 --> 00:01:45,480 Speaker 6: slim profit margins. If they get sued repeatedly and successfully, 28 00:01:46,280 --> 00:01:50,480 Speaker 6: they simply move out of the vaccine space. We've already 29 00:01:50,560 --> 00:01:55,160 Speaker 6: seen this happen with vaccines in the past. Twenty years ago, 30 00:01:55,360 --> 00:01:58,120 Speaker 6: we watched vaccines just move away if they did not 31 00:01:58,320 --> 00:02:04,280 Speaker 6: have protection from these kinds of lawsuits. The consequence of 32 00:02:04,360 --> 00:02:09,720 Speaker 6: mister Kennedy's ability to make those lawsuits easier is also 33 00:02:10,200 --> 00:02:15,079 Speaker 6: the ability to shut down access and manufacturing for vaccines 34 00:02:15,400 --> 00:02:16,400 Speaker 6: for every one of us. 35 00:02:16,440 --> 00:02:18,720 Speaker 3: And I think that's and another top story we're following. 36 00:02:18,760 --> 00:02:21,360 Speaker 3: Doug Collins was also just confirmed to leave the Department 37 00:02:21,400 --> 00:02:24,320 Speaker 3: of Betteran Affairs. Just less than two hours ago, the 38 00:02:24,360 --> 00:02:27,440 Speaker 3: Senate Intelligence Committee voted to advance the nomination of Tulsei 39 00:02:27,520 --> 00:02:30,799 Speaker 3: Gabbert to be the Director of National Intelligence. This was 40 00:02:30,840 --> 00:02:33,320 Speaker 3: a huge hurdle to overcome, and she'll now move on 41 00:02:33,480 --> 00:02:34,720 Speaker 3: to a full Senate vote. 42 00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:38,440 Speaker 1: And just last week President Trump took executive action to 43 00:02:38,480 --> 00:02:43,639 Speaker 1: protect children against transgender surgeries. Now hospitals across the country 44 00:02:43,960 --> 00:02:48,320 Speaker 1: are downsizing their quote gender affirming care programs. 45 00:02:48,400 --> 00:02:49,600 Speaker 2: Yes, you heard that correctly. 46 00:02:49,880 --> 00:02:52,560 Speaker 4: One father who can speak firsthand on the issue is 47 00:02:52,600 --> 00:02:56,920 Speaker 4: Harrison Tinsley, who just went full custody of her son 48 00:02:57,040 --> 00:03:00,360 Speaker 4: after his mother tried to raise him as non Binaryon 49 00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:02,840 Speaker 4: what is your reaction to Trump's executive order? 50 00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:08,000 Speaker 7: It's an absolute dream come true. You know, promise has made, 51 00:03:08,040 --> 00:03:11,160 Speaker 7: promise is kept. It's so unbelievably amazing to see that. 52 00:03:11,680 --> 00:03:13,960 Speaker 7: The best two weeks of a presidency I've ever seen, 53 00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:16,880 Speaker 7: and I just wanted to keep going. I hear chatter 54 00:03:16,919 --> 00:03:20,760 Speaker 7: about a possible another executive order tomorrow demolishing gender ideology, 55 00:03:21,320 --> 00:03:23,919 Speaker 7: and quite frankly, we need to get Congress to pass 56 00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:26,680 Speaker 7: a law to classify this as child abuse and make 57 00:03:26,680 --> 00:03:29,280 Speaker 7: it so that kids are no longer being sterilized for life. 58 00:03:29,520 --> 00:03:31,600 Speaker 1: So, Harrison, for those who don't know, tell us a 59 00:03:31,639 --> 00:03:34,280 Speaker 1: little bit about your journey in winning custody of your 60 00:03:34,320 --> 00:03:36,840 Speaker 1: son and ultimately why you needed custody of your son. 61 00:03:38,920 --> 00:03:39,160 Speaker 8: Yeah. 62 00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:42,280 Speaker 7: Well, basically, his mom just tried to keep him from me, 63 00:03:42,320 --> 00:03:44,400 Speaker 7: and I fought as hard as I could. I won 64 00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:45,880 Speaker 7: half custody when he was around a year and a 65 00:03:45,880 --> 00:03:47,760 Speaker 7: half old. I didn't meet him ntil he was fifteen 66 00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:50,160 Speaker 7: months old. As a tragedy, but it made me stronger 67 00:03:50,600 --> 00:03:53,240 Speaker 7: warrior for this fight to protect kids. And once I 68 00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:55,640 Speaker 7: won half custody, his mom tried to pretend he was 69 00:03:55,680 --> 00:03:57,880 Speaker 7: non binary, should put him on dresses, not let him 70 00:03:57,880 --> 00:04:01,480 Speaker 7: go on rides at Disneyland unless he wore princess shoes. 71 00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:03,520 Speaker 7: When he didn't want to. He would fight with her 72 00:04:03,560 --> 00:04:06,160 Speaker 7: on it, say I'm a boy, and she would just 73 00:04:06,280 --> 00:04:08,120 Speaker 7: keep trying to push on him for years, and I 74 00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:11,760 Speaker 7: brought it to family court's attention, had trials, she was arrested, 75 00:04:11,800 --> 00:04:15,400 Speaker 7: and then thankfully last year, I was able to obtain 76 00:04:15,440 --> 00:04:17,480 Speaker 7: full cast of him. And now he's safe and sound 77 00:04:17,480 --> 00:04:19,920 Speaker 7: with me, and it's the most incredible dream come true. 78 00:04:19,920 --> 00:04:21,840 Speaker 7: But we have to keep fighting because there's so many 79 00:04:21,880 --> 00:04:25,200 Speaker 7: parents and so many kids being hurt by this Harrison. 80 00:04:25,200 --> 00:04:27,240 Speaker 4: We now have multiple reports that Trump is set to 81 00:04:27,279 --> 00:04:30,479 Speaker 4: sign another executive order keeping men out of women's sports. 82 00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:32,640 Speaker 5: What kind of impact do you think that will have. 83 00:04:34,480 --> 00:04:36,960 Speaker 7: I think it will impact the country in the best 84 00:04:36,960 --> 00:04:39,320 Speaker 7: way possible. You know, you see Riley Gaines, speak up, 85 00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:42,960 Speaker 7: all these wonderful people. It's insane that women wouldn't have 86 00:04:43,080 --> 00:04:47,600 Speaker 7: their spaces protected. They're vulnerable. This is insanity. We're protecting 87 00:04:47,640 --> 00:04:52,479 Speaker 7: men's delusions over real girls. And yeah, I mean protect 88 00:04:52,480 --> 00:04:55,279 Speaker 7: women and children. That's like the basic idea of a society. 89 00:04:55,279 --> 00:04:56,360 Speaker 7: That's what you learn growing up. 90 00:04:56,880 --> 00:05:00,680 Speaker 1: So, Harrison, you're from California, which is a pretty prominent 91 00:05:00,720 --> 00:05:03,159 Speaker 1: state for things like this, of course, a blue state, 92 00:05:03,400 --> 00:05:04,120 Speaker 1: a woke state. 93 00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:07,200 Speaker 2: Nonetheless, how common do you think this is? 94 00:05:07,279 --> 00:05:07,479 Speaker 5: Though? 95 00:05:07,560 --> 00:05:10,880 Speaker 1: I mean, have you encountered other situations similar to yours. 96 00:05:12,600 --> 00:05:14,520 Speaker 7: Yeah, I have parents reach out to me almost daily 97 00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:17,080 Speaker 7: about losing custody where one parent's trying to trans the kid. 98 00:05:17,120 --> 00:05:19,000 Speaker 7: I know the schools around here in the Bay Area, 99 00:05:19,400 --> 00:05:21,560 Speaker 7: a lot of kids are pretending their trans or non 100 00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:25,280 Speaker 7: binary or whatever weird terms they have nowadays. It's extremely common, though, 101 00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:28,400 Speaker 7: I will say, there's this big momentum against it. Everyone 102 00:05:28,440 --> 00:05:30,680 Speaker 7: I meet seems to be frivolously against it, and they 103 00:05:30,680 --> 00:05:33,320 Speaker 7: completely want this ended. They don't want their children near 104 00:05:33,320 --> 00:05:36,080 Speaker 7: it learning about it. You know, these schools will trans 105 00:05:36,160 --> 00:05:38,039 Speaker 7: your kid behind your back, give them a dress and 106 00:05:38,080 --> 00:05:40,279 Speaker 7: a fake name, and keep it from the parents. We 107 00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:42,240 Speaker 7: have to just eradicate this completely. 108 00:05:43,040 --> 00:05:46,520 Speaker 4: Harrison, speaking of California, I was actually watching the La 109 00:05:46,640 --> 00:05:50,799 Speaker 4: Fireheid concert and Pink, the singer Pink was introducing John Mayer, 110 00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:53,160 Speaker 4: and she said, ladies and gentlemen and people of all 111 00:05:53,240 --> 00:05:56,039 Speaker 4: genders that absolutely exist. It was hard for me to 112 00:05:56,120 --> 00:05:59,279 Speaker 4: imagine that at a benefit concert for people who've lost 113 00:05:59,360 --> 00:06:01,680 Speaker 4: their lives in the fires, that she's more concerned about 114 00:06:01,680 --> 00:06:03,960 Speaker 4: the genders that absolutely exist. I don't know if you 115 00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:05,839 Speaker 4: saw that or not, but what's your reaction to something 116 00:06:05,880 --> 00:06:07,840 Speaker 4: like that when a celebrity takes a stand for something 117 00:06:07,839 --> 00:06:10,320 Speaker 4: that has nothing to do with people living or dying, 118 00:06:10,560 --> 00:06:12,720 Speaker 4: especially in a tragic fire in California. 119 00:06:13,920 --> 00:06:15,919 Speaker 7: Well, it's a tragedy because someone like Pink, you know, 120 00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:18,560 Speaker 7: has so much influence over so many young people, and 121 00:06:18,600 --> 00:06:21,760 Speaker 7: it's just confusing them. And quite frankly, we need to 122 00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:24,600 Speaker 7: just make this shame people that push things like this. 123 00:06:25,240 --> 00:06:27,560 Speaker 7: It's not okay, you're We're not going to let you 124 00:06:27,600 --> 00:06:31,240 Speaker 7: sterilize kids anymore. We're done with this. The gender insanity 125 00:06:31,520 --> 00:06:33,719 Speaker 7: is going to end. We're stopping it in the next 126 00:06:33,760 --> 00:06:37,560 Speaker 7: few years completely. Yeah, obviously people's house is burning is 127 00:06:37,600 --> 00:06:40,919 Speaker 7: so much more important. And it's just sad that people 128 00:06:40,920 --> 00:06:43,040 Speaker 7: are bought into this so much. But I really do 129 00:06:43,080 --> 00:06:44,760 Speaker 7: feel that we have the high ground on this one 130 00:06:44,800 --> 00:06:48,520 Speaker 7: and that most people, most normal Americans, even in California, 131 00:06:48,680 --> 00:06:50,080 Speaker 7: want this to end completely. 132 00:06:50,480 --> 00:06:54,480 Speaker 1: Harrison, What don't people understand about gender firm and care 133 00:06:54,640 --> 00:06:56,359 Speaker 1: and the intricacies of it and what it can do 134 00:06:56,440 --> 00:06:56,960 Speaker 1: to children. 135 00:06:58,520 --> 00:07:00,720 Speaker 7: I think a lot of people don't understand how barbaric 136 00:07:00,760 --> 00:07:03,080 Speaker 7: it really is if they see the pictures of the 137 00:07:03,120 --> 00:07:06,000 Speaker 7: procedures and the things that you know, these kids have 138 00:07:06,040 --> 00:07:08,520 Speaker 7: to do to continue it. They become lifelong big pharm 139 00:07:08,520 --> 00:07:11,160 Speaker 7: of patients. A lot of them get sterilized for life, 140 00:07:11,160 --> 00:07:13,560 Speaker 7: they can never have children of their own, a lot 141 00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:15,320 Speaker 7: of them end up regretting it. You know, you see 142 00:07:15,360 --> 00:07:18,720 Speaker 7: de transition, others like Laura Becker, Chloe Cole. There's just 143 00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:21,360 Speaker 7: countless examples, and it's a tragy. And I don't know 144 00:07:21,400 --> 00:07:24,760 Speaker 7: how anyone can see and hear these stories and keep 145 00:07:24,800 --> 00:07:27,840 Speaker 7: pushing this ideology. There's so much to it. It's just 146 00:07:28,600 --> 00:07:30,600 Speaker 7: terrifying that we do this to children, like we don't 147 00:07:30,640 --> 00:07:33,440 Speaker 7: affirm any other delusions. You don't affirm when your kid 148 00:07:33,480 --> 00:07:35,560 Speaker 7: says you spider Man, and let them swing off of buildings, 149 00:07:36,040 --> 00:07:38,360 Speaker 7: you know, or your daughter's anorexic, you don't make her 150 00:07:38,440 --> 00:07:41,280 Speaker 7: not eat dinner. It's just it's the craziest thing we've 151 00:07:41,320 --> 00:07:43,760 Speaker 7: ever done. It's one of the greatest evils of our time, 152 00:07:43,800 --> 00:07:45,280 Speaker 7: and we need to be the ones to step up 153 00:07:45,280 --> 00:07:45,840 Speaker 7: and stop it. 154 00:07:46,040 --> 00:07:49,720 Speaker 1: Just to follow up, what was the rationale for the child? 155 00:07:50,120 --> 00:07:53,400 Speaker 1: The mother of your child, what was her rationale for 156 00:07:53,560 --> 00:07:54,240 Speaker 1: doing all this? 157 00:07:55,680 --> 00:07:58,360 Speaker 7: There was no clear, concise rationale for her pushing that 158 00:07:58,440 --> 00:08:01,320 Speaker 7: other than I think her own wishes. Maybe she wanted 159 00:08:01,320 --> 00:08:03,640 Speaker 7: to look cool on social media or something. I obviously 160 00:08:03,720 --> 00:08:05,760 Speaker 7: cannot speak for her, I can tell you there was 161 00:08:05,760 --> 00:08:08,800 Speaker 7: also a post the first time she posted that she 162 00:08:08,880 --> 00:08:12,160 Speaker 7: was pregnant on social media she said, baby Sawyer doing December. 163 00:08:12,200 --> 00:08:14,200 Speaker 7: I'll love you whether you're a boy or girl or neither. 164 00:08:14,240 --> 00:08:16,360 Speaker 7: So it seemed kind of pre planned to me, not 165 00:08:16,480 --> 00:08:18,920 Speaker 7: anything to do with it what the child wanted. My 166 00:08:18,960 --> 00:08:20,920 Speaker 7: son knows he's a boy. He always asks and I'm 167 00:08:20,960 --> 00:08:23,520 Speaker 7: thankful for that. And he's a brave kid, and he's 168 00:08:23,560 --> 00:08:25,440 Speaker 7: just doing great and it's not going to work. 169 00:08:25,640 --> 00:08:28,440 Speaker 4: Harrison, what you said reminded me of I did a 170 00:08:28,480 --> 00:08:31,360 Speaker 4: show once with someone who had the same kind of mentality. 171 00:08:31,760 --> 00:08:34,200 Speaker 4: And I remember what the lady said to her daughter 172 00:08:34,400 --> 00:08:36,440 Speaker 4: was when she was actually a little girl was actually 173 00:08:36,480 --> 00:08:38,200 Speaker 4: looking at me and playing with me. Was well, you 174 00:08:38,240 --> 00:08:40,760 Speaker 4: know what, little girl, you can love boys, you can 175 00:08:40,800 --> 00:08:42,880 Speaker 4: love girls. You can love whoever you want. And I 176 00:08:42,920 --> 00:08:45,439 Speaker 4: feel like that kind of mentality is what you're talking 177 00:08:45,440 --> 00:08:49,120 Speaker 4: about instilling in a kid when they're at that tender age, 178 00:08:49,160 --> 00:08:51,640 Speaker 4: that somehow they can put this dogma inside of them. 179 00:08:51,800 --> 00:08:53,719 Speaker 4: And frankly, I find that to be a form of 180 00:08:53,800 --> 00:08:56,160 Speaker 4: child abuse. Would you see it kind of the same way. 181 00:08:57,880 --> 00:09:00,160 Speaker 7: It's absolutely child abuse that it needs to be class 182 00:09:00,440 --> 00:09:02,560 Speaker 7: five as such legally, And you're right, it is like 183 00:09:02,600 --> 00:09:04,719 Speaker 7: almost like this play on. We tell kids when they're 184 00:09:04,760 --> 00:09:06,400 Speaker 7: going to you can be anything you want to be, 185 00:09:06,559 --> 00:09:09,479 Speaker 7: meaning like you could be an astronaut or president, or firefighter, 186 00:09:09,559 --> 00:09:12,320 Speaker 7: construction worker, green beret, right, all these cool things. But 187 00:09:12,360 --> 00:09:14,200 Speaker 7: we've taken it to this you can be whatever you 188 00:09:14,200 --> 00:09:16,680 Speaker 7: want in some sort of way, like you could actually 189 00:09:16,760 --> 00:09:18,240 Speaker 7: be a girl when you're a boy, and you actually 190 00:09:18,280 --> 00:09:21,320 Speaker 7: the reality is you can't every cell in your body 191 00:09:21,559 --> 00:09:24,360 Speaker 7: xx or x y boys or boys, girls or girls, 192 00:09:24,559 --> 00:09:27,520 Speaker 7: men or men, women or women, And we just can't 193 00:09:27,600 --> 00:09:31,640 Speaker 7: let these confusing, crazy ideologies like hurt kids the way 194 00:09:31,640 --> 00:09:34,480 Speaker 7: they have. We're talking tens of thousands of kids have 195 00:09:34,600 --> 00:09:37,400 Speaker 7: been literally mutilated. The what world are we living in? 196 00:09:38,440 --> 00:09:41,800 Speaker 1: Haars And you're also featured in a docu series titled 197 00:09:41,880 --> 00:09:44,760 Speaker 1: Identity Crisis. Tell us about that and also where viewers 198 00:09:44,800 --> 00:09:45,360 Speaker 1: can find it. 199 00:09:46,840 --> 00:09:49,520 Speaker 7: Yeah, it's on Daily wire plus dot com. It's an 200 00:09:49,559 --> 00:09:51,839 Speaker 7: amazing movie. I'm so thankful to be part of it. 201 00:09:51,840 --> 00:09:53,960 Speaker 7: It really will bring to light, like when you asked 202 00:09:54,000 --> 00:09:56,160 Speaker 7: me earlier, what people don't understand about. It will show 203 00:09:56,160 --> 00:09:59,080 Speaker 7: you some of the procedures and some of the detransitioners 204 00:09:59,120 --> 00:10:00,920 Speaker 7: and the stories of parents. It's like me and Adam 205 00:10:01,000 --> 00:10:04,800 Speaker 7: losing custody, and it'll really just open your eyes to 206 00:10:04,920 --> 00:10:08,520 Speaker 7: how serious and how prevalent this is in society right now. 207 00:10:08,640 --> 00:10:09,160 Speaker 5: It's interesting. 208 00:10:09,160 --> 00:10:10,920 Speaker 4: Here's when you talk about the choice and saying, you know, 209 00:10:11,000 --> 00:10:12,520 Speaker 4: you tell kids you could be whatever you want to be. 210 00:10:12,520 --> 00:10:15,200 Speaker 4: They're always focused on the choice of what gender kids 211 00:10:15,240 --> 00:10:15,839 Speaker 4: want to choose. 212 00:10:15,960 --> 00:10:16,960 Speaker 5: But what happens. 213 00:10:16,640 --> 00:10:19,040 Speaker 4: Exactly what you said, when it's irreversible and then at 214 00:10:19,040 --> 00:10:20,920 Speaker 4: that point as an adult they can't reverse it, there 215 00:10:21,000 --> 00:10:21,600 Speaker 4: is no choice. 216 00:10:21,600 --> 00:10:22,400 Speaker 5: What about the choice? 217 00:10:22,400 --> 00:10:26,400 Speaker 7: Then that's exactly right. There is no choice after that. 218 00:10:26,440 --> 00:10:28,679 Speaker 7: It's irreversible damage that's happening. And a lot of them 219 00:10:28,720 --> 00:10:30,640 Speaker 7: will never have children. They'll have scars for the rest 220 00:10:30,679 --> 00:10:32,840 Speaker 7: of their life, they won't be able to breastfeed their children, 221 00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:36,880 Speaker 7: et cetera. And that's why children cannot consent to a 222 00:10:36,920 --> 00:10:40,319 Speaker 7: lifelong decision like that, where they can never There's a 223 00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:42,880 Speaker 7: reason there's consent age for everything, whether it's going to war, 224 00:10:43,160 --> 00:10:46,400 Speaker 7: drinking alcoholic, smoking cigarettes, et cetera. And yet those are 225 00:10:46,520 --> 00:10:49,200 Speaker 7: smaller choices even than this crazy one of you know, 226 00:10:49,280 --> 00:10:53,520 Speaker 7: being sterilized for life. We cannot let children make decisions 227 00:10:53,559 --> 00:10:56,280 Speaker 7: that will alter them for their whole lifetime. That's why 228 00:10:56,280 --> 00:10:59,439 Speaker 7: their children parents have to, you know, speak up for them, 229 00:10:59,520 --> 00:11:02,400 Speaker 7: protect them, and need more parents, more people speaking up 230 00:11:02,440 --> 00:11:05,199 Speaker 7: to the reality of this horror. That's gender ideology. 231 00:11:05,880 --> 00:11:09,320 Speaker 1: Harrison, what would you tell any parents that might be 232 00:11:09,400 --> 00:11:11,600 Speaker 1: dealing with a similar situation at home right now with 233 00:11:11,640 --> 00:11:12,240 Speaker 1: their children. 234 00:11:14,559 --> 00:11:16,960 Speaker 7: Tell your kids the truth, love them with all your heart, 235 00:11:17,240 --> 00:11:22,440 Speaker 7: guide them, do not affirm delusions, have courage, and you'll 236 00:11:22,480 --> 00:11:25,800 Speaker 7: be able to save them from this. You'll absolutely be 237 00:11:25,840 --> 00:11:28,520 Speaker 7: able to look them in the eyes. Just make sure 238 00:11:28,520 --> 00:11:29,720 Speaker 7: when you look them in the eyes. You can tell 239 00:11:29,760 --> 00:11:31,760 Speaker 7: them that you did everything you could for them. Do 240 00:11:31,880 --> 00:11:34,920 Speaker 7: not let them buy into this. No matter what counselors 241 00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:37,320 Speaker 7: or teachers tell you have to, don't listen to them. 242 00:11:37,679 --> 00:11:40,079 Speaker 7: The right thing to do is tell them that they 243 00:11:40,720 --> 00:11:43,199 Speaker 7: were made perfectly by God to be a boy or 244 00:11:43,280 --> 00:11:44,920 Speaker 7: girl and that can never change. 245 00:11:46,320 --> 00:11:48,640 Speaker 1: Thank you, I wish we had more time.

This is the entryway to 283 00:13:41,600 --> 00:13:43,800 Speaker 10: the White House. It's a long driveway. It's going to 284 00:13:43,840 --> 00:13:46,800 Speaker 10: go up to about the west wing. And well, I'll 285 00:13:46,840 --> 00:13:48,800 Speaker 10: keep an eye on that front gate, Tony, if you 286 00:13:48,840 --> 00:13:51,560 Speaker 10: want to quickly pan, we'll show the viewers at home 287 00:13:51,600 --> 00:13:53,720 Speaker 10: exactly what that will look like. 288 00:13:53,840 --> 00:13:55,920 Speaker 8: But he's going to come in, come in towards the 289 00:13:55,960 --> 00:13:56,520 Speaker 8: west wing. 290 00:13:56,559 --> 00:14:00,000 Speaker 10: President Trump will greet the Prime Minister at that point, 291 00:14:00,080 --> 00:14:03,280 Speaker 10: and they have some meeting schedules, so they'll go inside 292 00:14:03,520 --> 00:14:06,240 Speaker 10: in about five ten were originally around five to ten. 293 00:14:06,960 --> 00:14:09,440 Speaker 10: There was a kind of a joint press conference with 294 00:14:09,520 --> 00:14:12,160 Speaker 10: the Prime Minister and President Trump to take questions and 295 00:14:12,200 --> 00:14:14,720 Speaker 10: talk about their meeting. 296 00:14:15,000 --> 00:14:16,640 Speaker 8: Here at the White House. I'm just kind of keep 297 00:14:16,679 --> 00:14:17,520 Speaker 8: an eye on everything. 298 00:14:17,640 --> 00:14:21,360 Speaker 10: But as you can see, the presentation here from the 299 00:14:21,400 --> 00:14:24,120 Speaker 10: Trump team is like you would expect. And I was 300 00:14:24,160 --> 00:14:28,840 Speaker 10: talking to some reporters that have been here during the 301 00:14:28,880 --> 00:14:31,680 Speaker 10: Biden administration. They said, look, every time we've had a 302 00:14:31,800 --> 00:14:35,120 Speaker 10: leader come to this White House, we have never seen 303 00:14:35,600 --> 00:14:39,000 Speaker 10: the pageantry that we have here today. I think that 304 00:14:39,080 --> 00:14:41,880 Speaker 10: shows a lot of respect that President Trump has not 305 00:14:41,920 --> 00:14:44,880 Speaker 10: only for this country, but also when he has world 306 00:14:45,000 --> 00:14:48,160 Speaker 10: leaders visit, he really wants to well put on the 307 00:14:48,160 --> 00:14:48,560 Speaker 10: show and. 308 00:14:50,040 --> 00:14:51,840 Speaker 8: Welcome them on the highest order. 309 00:14:52,920 --> 00:14:54,960 Speaker 4: Brian, I got a question for you, you know, I'd 310 00:14:55,000 --> 00:14:56,560 Speaker 4: like you to tell us a little bit about what 311 00:14:56,600 --> 00:14:58,920 Speaker 4: you think these two leaders are going to discuss today. 312 00:14:59,280 --> 00:15:02,600 Speaker 4: I understand and that there's concern among Israelis, and I'm 313 00:15:02,600 --> 00:15:05,120 Speaker 4: sure among the Prime Minister that some of the hostages 314 00:15:05,160 --> 00:15:07,480 Speaker 4: the Palestinians that they're having to give back as part 315 00:15:07,480 --> 00:15:10,320 Speaker 4: of the ceasefire are really bad eggs, bad apples, some 316 00:15:10,360 --> 00:15:13,800 Speaker 4: of whom have ten to fifteen twenty year life sentences, 317 00:15:13,920 --> 00:15:16,520 Speaker 4: Really really bad people. Is that a concern that you're 318 00:15:16,560 --> 00:15:20,680 Speaker 4: sensing that Prime Minister Netyaho may present today and also 319 00:15:20,720 --> 00:15:23,000 Speaker 4: perhaps present a right to return to fighting if he 320 00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:23,720 Speaker 4: feels the need to. 321 00:15:26,080 --> 00:15:29,600 Speaker 10: That is an excellent point. I have heard that from 322 00:15:29,800 --> 00:15:34,120 Speaker 10: several sources. That was a big concern obviously, you know, 323 00:15:34,280 --> 00:15:37,360 Speaker 10: and I think that's you would expect someone to be 324 00:15:37,400 --> 00:15:40,200 Speaker 10: concerned about something like that, because you definitely don't want 325 00:15:40,240 --> 00:15:43,840 Speaker 10: to send some of those bad apples back back. 326 00:15:43,960 --> 00:15:44,600 Speaker 8: Into the war. 327 00:15:44,680 --> 00:15:47,280 Speaker 10: But you know, I would imagine that that will be 328 00:15:47,320 --> 00:15:50,600 Speaker 10: discussed here at this summit. And of course, you know, 329 00:15:50,680 --> 00:15:53,280 Speaker 10: this is huge for President Trump's as far as his legacy. 330 00:15:53,520 --> 00:15:55,320 Speaker 10: He ran that was one of his campaign one of 331 00:15:55,360 --> 00:16:00,360 Speaker 10: his campaign messages was running about establishing this piece in 332 00:16:00,400 --> 00:16:04,120 Speaker 10: the Middle East. And also I think for Benjaminett Yahoo. 333 00:16:04,200 --> 00:16:07,160 Speaker 10: This goes a lot about his legacy as well, and 334 00:16:07,200 --> 00:16:10,240 Speaker 10: this is something that will go down in history. There's 335 00:16:10,280 --> 00:16:12,640 Speaker 10: a lot of people that are that are challenging him 336 00:16:12,680 --> 00:16:16,200 Speaker 10: for leadership there.

The amount of media 344 00:16:41,080 --> 00:16:42,440 Speaker 10: and I don't know if you can turn the camera 345 00:16:42,480 --> 00:16:46,120 Speaker 10: real quickly, Tony, Let's show the amount of press that 346 00:16:46,400 --> 00:16:48,680 Speaker 10: is assemboled here today and if see if you can 347 00:16:48,680 --> 00:16:49,400 Speaker 10: push in tight. 348 00:16:51,160 --> 00:16:52,840 Speaker 8: Like I said, over the last week. 349 00:16:52,720 --> 00:16:54,800 Speaker 10: And a half since I've been here, I have been 350 00:16:54,840 --> 00:16:57,200 Speaker 10: really you know, kind of asking questions of like what 351 00:16:57,240 --> 00:16:59,920 Speaker 10: it's like under this Trump administration with the media coverage 352 00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:03,760 Speaker 10: has been compared to the Biden administration, and it is 353 00:17:03,880 --> 00:17:05,640 Speaker 10: absolutely light. 354 00:17:07,080 --> 00:17:07,840 Speaker 8: Night and day. 355 00:17:07,880 --> 00:17:11,560 Speaker 10: As far as the amount of people, the amount of press, 356 00:17:11,680 --> 00:17:16,280 Speaker 10: the international press that's here on a daily basis is 357 00:17:16,680 --> 00:17:19,680 Speaker 10: something that they have never seen before, and of course 358 00:17:19,720 --> 00:17:21,760 Speaker 10: not only because of the stuff obviously that's going on 359 00:17:21,800 --> 00:17:24,000 Speaker 10: in the Middle East, but just you've got Ukraine, you've 360 00:17:24,000 --> 00:17:28,000 Speaker 10: got all the other conflicts around the world. It is 361 00:17:28,040 --> 00:17:31,920 Speaker 10: certainly all eyes of the world is on the White 362 00:17:31,960 --> 00:17:35,320 Speaker 10: House right now in this administration. And just look at 363 00:17:35,320 --> 00:17:37,960 Speaker 10: the news cycle that we've had the last you know, 364 00:17:38,200 --> 00:17:43,080 Speaker 10: two weeks, my goodness, every single day, executive orders being 365 00:17:43,119 --> 00:17:48,120 Speaker 10: delivered and negotiations being made under the tariff with Canada 366 00:17:48,160 --> 00:17:52,000 Speaker 10: and Mexico in China. It just seems like we shall 367 00:17:52,040 --> 00:17:53,439 Speaker 10: all pick up a copy of the Art of the 368 00:17:53,440 --> 00:17:56,760 Speaker 10: Deal and figure out how we can all pretty much 369 00:17:56,800 --> 00:17:59,639 Speaker 10: solve the problems in our life, because President Trump is 370 00:17:59,680 --> 00:18:04,160 Speaker 10: definitely doing a fantastic job. If you're wondering about protesters here, 371 00:18:04,200 --> 00:18:06,240 Speaker 10: I don't know if you can hear it on the 372 00:18:06,320 --> 00:18:10,199 Speaker 10: nat mic that we have, but just there is a 373 00:18:10,400 --> 00:18:14,000 Speaker 10: sizeable amount of protesters just outside the White House here, 374 00:18:14,400 --> 00:18:17,800 Speaker 10: as you can imagine. Yesterday and the day before. The 375 00:18:17,880 --> 00:18:19,679 Speaker 10: last two days, I should say, they've been putting up 376 00:18:19,680 --> 00:18:22,040 Speaker 10: more of your what I call a January sixth style 377 00:18:22,119 --> 00:18:26,800 Speaker 10: fencing around the exterior outside the Eisenhower Building to kind 378 00:18:26,800 --> 00:18:30,400 Speaker 10: of keep people from the street coming in. They've still 379 00:18:30,440 --> 00:18:33,359 Speaker 10: got I do hear a motorcade coming. Let me make sure. 380 00:18:33,960 --> 00:18:35,520 Speaker 10: I want to make sure we don't miss this as 381 00:18:35,520 --> 00:18:38,359 Speaker 10: we're live right here at the White House waiting for 382 00:18:38,520 --> 00:18:41,960 Speaker 10: Prime Minister Benjamin Yahoo to come through here. But the 383 00:18:42,000 --> 00:18:44,359 Speaker 10: security around this area in the last couple of days 384 00:18:44,400 --> 00:18:49,080 Speaker 10: has intensified. We've got more, I would say, a secret service, 385 00:18:49,560 --> 00:18:53,760 Speaker 10: not only in DC Metro police as well, several blocks 386 00:18:53,840 --> 00:18:56,480 Speaker 10: surrounding the White House. You can see them when they're 387 00:18:56,480 --> 00:18:58,680 Speaker 10: in the squad cars, you can see them on foot 388 00:18:58,720 --> 00:19:03,639 Speaker 10: as well. Actually today the presidence outside here as this 389 00:19:03,960 --> 00:19:06,919 Speaker 10: entry way here, he's got you know, coming on public 390 00:19:06,960 --> 00:19:11,120 Speaker 10: streets here. So I would imagine along the road here 391 00:19:11,320 --> 00:19:14,040 Speaker 10: they have been a sizeable protests. They've got the signs, 392 00:19:14,080 --> 00:19:17,040 Speaker 10: they've got the sirens. You could perhaps hear that in 393 00:19:17,080 --> 00:19:20,480 Speaker 10: the background as well. But just a moment here, and 394 00:19:20,520 --> 00:19:23,520 Speaker 10: I'm just I think all of America is is is 395 00:19:24,280 --> 00:19:30,840 Speaker 10: really you know, backing this president for trying to finalize 396 00:19:31,440 --> 00:19:33,200 Speaker 10: this peace agreement that's so important? 397 00:19:33,600 --> 00:19:34,679 Speaker 9: Yeah, it certainly is. 398 00:19:34,720 --> 00:19:36,879 Speaker 3: This is a crucial crucial moment there, Brian, And you're 399 00:19:36,920 --> 00:19:39,320 Speaker 3: really painting a picture for us about how important this 400 00:19:39,400 --> 00:19:42,800 Speaker 3: meeting is today.

Members 420 00:20:51,520 --> 00:20:56,920 Speaker 10: of his staff, Israeli media as well, they just got out. 421 00:20:57,440 --> 00:21:01,240 Speaker 10: I saw President Trump just briefly walk out the door, 422 00:21:01,600 --> 00:21:04,720 Speaker 10: put his hand come to greet the Prime minister at 423 00:21:04,720 --> 00:21:07,000 Speaker 10: that point they kind of shook hands and now they're 424 00:21:07,119 --> 00:21:11,639 Speaker 10: they're inside ready for their meeting. So they're going to 425 00:21:11,720 --> 00:21:14,640 Speaker 10: go to a brief meeting, and they had it five ten. 426 00:21:14,760 --> 00:21:17,320 Speaker 10: They had a kind of a joint press conference that 427 00:21:17,720 --> 00:21:21,440 Speaker 10: we will have a camera there to cover that as well, 428 00:21:21,480 --> 00:21:23,680 Speaker 10: but just kind of just quickly. There's a lot of 429 00:21:23,720 --> 00:21:26,240 Speaker 10: pageantry waiting for this arrival and it you know, it 430 00:21:26,280 --> 00:21:28,440 Speaker 10: was a matter of minutes that it happened. So I 431 00:21:29,080 --> 00:21:32,760 Speaker 10: kind of felt bad. Just perfect timing as far as mistiming, 432 00:21:32,800 --> 00:21:35,080 Speaker 10: I should say, as far as being in commercial break. 433 00:21:35,080 --> 00:21:37,720 Speaker 10: But we'll continue our covered chere in the ground at 434 00:21:37,720 --> 00:21:41,280 Speaker 10: the White House as a talks resume here shortly and 435 00:21:41,320 --> 00:21:43,200 Speaker 10: well we'll get back to you with the very latest 436 00:21:43,760 --> 00:21:44,880 Speaker 10: what's going on here in DC. 437 00:21:45,119 --> 00:21:45,840 Speaker 5: Brian, I know that. 438 00:21:47,359 --> 00:21:50,040 Speaker 4: Jared Kushner kind of had a pivotal role in the 439 00:21:50,119 --> 00:21:52,680 Speaker 4: last administration. He's not going to be involved, I don't believe, 440 00:21:52,680 --> 00:21:55,560 Speaker 4: at least as actively in this administration. But a special 441 00:21:55,680 --> 00:21:56,760 Speaker 4: envoy to the Middle East. 442 00:21:56,600 --> 00:21:57,440 Speaker 5: Is Steve Whitkoff. 443 00:21:57,800 --> 00:22:00,520 Speaker 4: That's obviously a close personal friend of the presidents, but 444 00:22:00,600 --> 00:22:03,520 Speaker 4: also a business associate. What can you tell us about 445 00:22:03,640 --> 00:22:07,119 Speaker 4: what Steve Whitcoff's role will be as a special envoy 446 00:22:07,160 --> 00:22:09,359 Speaker 4: to the Middle East because he obviously has a special 447 00:22:09,359 --> 00:22:12,919 Speaker 4: connection to Israel. Do you envision him being pivotal in 448 00:22:12,960 --> 00:22:15,680 Speaker 4: some of these negotiations today? I know there's about a 449 00:22:15,720 --> 00:22:18,320 Speaker 4: forty five minutes or so closed door meetings, So tell 450 00:22:18,359 --> 00:22:21,000 Speaker 4: us what you can about him. 451 00:22:21,320 --> 00:22:24,520 Speaker 10: Yeah, from one understand he will be involved in these meetings, 452 00:22:24,560 --> 00:22:27,679 Speaker 10: and he has been very pivotal to this point, I 453 00:22:27,680 --> 00:22:30,240 Speaker 10: mean to basically on phase one and then going into 454 00:22:30,280 --> 00:22:34,600 Speaker 10: kind of phase two of this negotiations in coming up 455 00:22:34,640 --> 00:22:37,399 Speaker 10: with a plan. He has been a key person in 456 00:22:37,440 --> 00:22:39,639 Speaker 10: all of this, and he's a close ally of President Trump. 457 00:22:39,680 --> 00:22:42,800 Speaker 10: Obviously the last press conference we were at at mare Lago, 458 00:22:42,960 --> 00:22:45,800 Speaker 10: he matter of fact, Trump pulled him up on stage 459 00:22:45,840 --> 00:22:49,440 Speaker 10: and said how important he was and all of these negotiations. 460 00:22:49,480 --> 00:22:52,119 Speaker 10: So to you point, Bo, he's going to definitely have 461 00:22:52,240 --> 00:22:54,159 Speaker 10: a key row in all of this. As you can 462 00:22:54,200 --> 00:22:58,920 Speaker 10: see now, the military procession here is pulling out as 463 00:22:58,920 --> 00:23:01,000 Speaker 10: they clear the way for us to co in for 464 00:23:01,080 --> 00:23:02,720 Speaker 10: the brief meeting.

So they're having to go out there into 508 00:25:12,280 --> 00:25:15,639 Speaker 11: these communities chase these guys down when they could have 509 00:25:15,640 --> 00:25:18,920 Speaker 11: picked them up in the jails. You know, in Chicago 510 00:25:18,960 --> 00:25:20,879 Speaker 11: when we're there, every single one of the people that 511 00:25:20,920 --> 00:25:25,159 Speaker 11: we caught that day had been previously apprehended, were incarcerated 512 00:25:25,240 --> 00:25:29,560 Speaker 11: by either the Illinois Corrections Department or the Chicago Cook 513 00:25:29,560 --> 00:25:32,120 Speaker 11: County Corrections and all of them were let out. None 514 00:25:32,160 --> 00:25:35,400 Speaker 11: of their detainers were granted. And the same is true 515 00:25:35,440 --> 00:25:37,399 Speaker 11: in New York, and so ICE is having to go 516 00:25:37,480 --> 00:25:40,879 Speaker 11: back out into the community to track these guys down 517 00:25:40,680 --> 00:25:46,080 Speaker 11: and you know, basically catch them again and all of that, 518 00:25:46,240 --> 00:25:49,080 Speaker 11: while we have hundreds of thousands of more that are 519 00:25:49,119 --> 00:25:52,080 Speaker 11: in this country, really millions more that need to be caught, 520 00:25:52,119 --> 00:25:56,800 Speaker 11: and so it's just an incredibly vast, almost you know, 521 00:25:56,800 --> 00:26:00,600 Speaker 11: to border patrols or to ICE's point, almost insurmountable number 522 00:26:00,640 --> 00:26:03,280 Speaker 11: that they're having to do with limited resources. You know, 523 00:26:03,320 --> 00:26:05,959 Speaker 11: these guys are they only have so many ICE agents, 524 00:26:06,240 --> 00:26:09,240 Speaker 11: There are only so many law enforcement agents. But thank 525 00:26:09,280 --> 00:26:11,119 Speaker 11: god for some of the Red states where you have 526 00:26:11,200 --> 00:26:13,720 Speaker 11: sheriffs and the two eighty seven G program that can help. 527 00:26:14,200 --> 00:26:16,040 Speaker 11: But a lot more is going to have to be 528 00:26:16,119 --> 00:26:19,560 Speaker 11: done in order to help ICE achieve their mission. 529 00:26:20,080 --> 00:26:22,639 Speaker 3: Absolutely, Ben they are certainly just getting started on all 530 00:26:22,640 --> 00:26:24,280 Speaker 3: of these deportation efforts. 531 00:26:24,320 --> 00:26:24,680 Speaker 9: I believe. 532 00:26:24,680 --> 00:26:27,440 Speaker 3: We actually have a clip of your time in Chicago 533 00:26:27,480 --> 00:26:29,280 Speaker 3: following along with these operations. 534 00:26:29,440 --> 00:26:31,280 Speaker 9: Let's show our viewers that clip very quick. 535 00:26:32,040 --> 00:26:35,760 Speaker 12: Chicago, Illinois.

Those are 577 00:28:56,920 --> 00:28:58,400 Speaker 13: the ones we're gonna prioritize right now. 578 00:28:59,000 --> 00:29:01,640 Speaker 14: So explain that again to a lot of these folks. 579 00:29:01,640 --> 00:29:03,760 Speaker 13: Were going after Now, yeah, we have a lot of 580 00:29:03,880 --> 00:29:06,120 Speaker 13: recent entries that were allowed in at the border, and 581 00:29:06,120 --> 00:29:09,200 Speaker 13: when they were allowed in, they were released under conditions 582 00:29:09,240 --> 00:29:13,040 Speaker 13: that did specify that while you're you're in the United 583 00:29:13,080 --> 00:29:15,320 Speaker 13: States or waiting your court hearing or waiting your application 584 00:29:15,400 --> 00:29:18,040 Speaker 13: to be processed, that you must abide by the laws 585 00:29:18,080 --> 00:29:21,880 Speaker 13: here right cannot commit crimes or be commcdto crimes or 586 00:29:21,880 --> 00:29:25,000 Speaker 13: anything like that. So during this operation right now, we 587 00:29:25,160 --> 00:29:29,200 Speaker 13: do have a significant amount of cases where those subjects 588 00:29:29,200 --> 00:29:32,240 Speaker 13: that have committed crimes here in Chicago, and those crimes 589 00:29:32,320 --> 00:29:36,240 Speaker 13: vary from retail theft to actually be a part of 590 00:29:36,400 --> 00:29:38,200 Speaker 13: South American theft groups. We got a lot of them 591 00:29:38,240 --> 00:29:42,800 Speaker 13: going on up here to like actual like violent crimes, 592 00:29:42,800 --> 00:29:45,520 Speaker 13: so using weapons and things like that. So when we 593 00:29:45,600 --> 00:29:50,120 Speaker 13: do target these individuals and epprehend them, that custody that 594 00:29:50,200 --> 00:29:53,080 Speaker 13: they were released under initially at the border is going 595 00:29:53,120 --> 00:29:57,400 Speaker 13: to be redetermined now here interior by an immigration judge. 596 00:29:57,800 --> 00:30:00,800 Speaker 14: How big of a nightmare does this make for you 597 00:30:00,800 --> 00:30:04,960 Speaker 14: what they did in the last administration for your ability 598 00:30:05,000 --> 00:30:07,400 Speaker 14: to do your job Now that you have that many 599 00:30:07,480 --> 00:30:09,680 Speaker 14: we're talking you know the numbers we're talking. 600 00:30:09,440 --> 00:30:13,840 Speaker 13: About, It's an overwhelming workload. That's the easy way I 601 00:30:13,840 --> 00:30:14,360 Speaker 13: can explain it. 602 00:30:14,400 --> 00:30:17,080 Speaker 4: I think, well, then we just have about a minute 603 00:30:17,120 --> 00:30:18,520 Speaker 4: left with you. But I want to ask you about 604 00:30:18,520 --> 00:30:20,720 Speaker 4: this because you just focused on Chicago. Chicago may Or 605 00:30:20,760 --> 00:30:24,520 Speaker 4: Brandon Johnson has been defiant of the Trump administration's deportation plans. 606 00:30:24,760 --> 00:30:27,960 Speaker 4: He's instructed law enforcement not to assist Ice and other 607 00:30:28,000 --> 00:30:30,800 Speaker 4: border officials. Now, I know there's a difference between actively 608 00:30:30,880 --> 00:30:34,480 Speaker 4: impeding this and then also just not assisting. But tell 609 00:30:34,520 --> 00:30:37,080 Speaker 4: us more about how this complicates the efforts to expel 610 00:30:37,120 --> 00:30:37,960 Speaker 4: criminal migrants. 611 00:30:40,240 --> 00:30:43,040 Speaker 11: Well, it makes it that much more difficult. He is 612 00:30:43,080 --> 00:30:46,240 Speaker 11: aiding and abetting criminal activity in America, and so I 613 00:30:46,280 --> 00:30:48,360 Speaker 11: think it really comes down to a justice department. Are 614 00:30:48,400 --> 00:30:50,440 Speaker 11: they going to hold him accountable? I hope they do. 615 00:30:50,920 --> 00:30:55,280 Speaker 11: I was actually riding with Elan Bovie, the Acting Attorney General, 616 00:30:55,320 --> 00:30:58,520 Speaker 11: Assistant Attorney General and our deputy Attorney General, and he 617 00:30:58,640 --> 00:31:00,640 Speaker 11: said that that's exactly what they're looking at doing what 618 00:31:00,680 --> 00:31:02,719 Speaker 11: they can do to go after Pritzker, go after Johnson, 619 00:31:02,760 --> 00:31:05,000 Speaker 11: go after any of these mayors and governors that get 620 00:31:05,000 --> 00:31:07,320 Speaker 11: in their way. And they clearly are this is not 621 00:31:07,440 --> 00:31:10,400 Speaker 11: just it's not just getting out of the way and 622 00:31:10,440 --> 00:31:14,600 Speaker 11: not helping. They are actively undermining ICE's ability to protect 623 00:31:14,680 --> 00:31:16,040 Speaker 11: our communities. 624 00:31:15,640 --> 00:31:18,000 Speaker 4: And so ultimately that would be the Justice Department's decision 625 00:31:18,040 --> 00:31:20,200 Speaker 4: to whether they could intervene into this and hold them accountable. 626 00:31:20,200 --> 00:31:23,720 Speaker 5: Is that right, Ben, That's correct, and there will be 627 00:31:23,760 --> 00:31:24,120 Speaker 5: a fight. 628 00:31:24,480 --> 00:31:26,560 Speaker 11: The ICE has already told me there's going to be 629 00:31:26,560 --> 00:31:28,400 Speaker 11: a fight, talking to Bovie, there's going to be a fight. 630 00:31:28,480 --> 00:31:31,360 Speaker 11: They're looking at going in even if these ICE detainers 631 00:31:31,360 --> 00:31:34,760 Speaker 11: aren't held and pushing this federal issue, federalism and going 632 00:31:34,760 --> 00:31:38,600 Speaker 11: into these facilities to pick these guys up when they're 633 00:31:38,640 --> 00:31:41,120 Speaker 11: not being complied with by the local. 634 00:31:40,920 --> 00:31:41,760 Speaker 8: Or state officials. 635 00:31:41,760 --> 00:31:44,120 Speaker 11: So there's going to be a reckoning coming at some 636 00:31:44,200 --> 00:31:45,240 Speaker 11: point in the near future. 637 00:31:45,440 --> 00:31:47,160 Speaker 5: You're absolutely right, there will be a reckoning. 638 00:31:47,160 --> 00:31:50,720 Speaker 4: Thanks so much, Ben, appreciate you, Thank you, and we'll 639 00:31:50,720 --> 00:31:52,240 Speaker 4: be right back with more Special Report. 640 00:31:52,320 --> 00:32:10,520 Speaker 15: Stay tuned, Welcome back to Special Award. 641 00:32:10,640 --> 00:32:14,200 Speaker 1: President Trump and the Democrats are keeping the news cycle busy, 642 00:32:14,280 --> 00:32:23,720 Speaker 1: so let's get to the top breaking stories today well 643 00:32:23,720 --> 00:32:28,200 Speaker 1: as Doge continues to clean house. AOC has some choice 644 00:32:28,320 --> 00:32:30,640 Speaker 1: words for Doge's Elon Musk. 645 00:32:30,800 --> 00:32:32,240 Speaker 2: Just take a listen to this. 646 00:32:32,240 --> 00:32:36,960 Speaker 16: This dude is probably one of the most unintelligent billionaires 647 00:32:37,000 --> 00:32:43,520 Speaker 16: I have ever met or seen are witnessed, which you know, 648 00:32:43,640 --> 00:32:46,280 Speaker 16: you could probably even glean that from watching these people 649 00:32:46,280 --> 00:32:50,400 Speaker 16: on TV. Anyways, all of that is to say is 650 00:32:50,440 --> 00:32:55,320 Speaker 16: that they don't do their homework. Clearly like they're putting 651 00:32:55,400 --> 00:32:57,880 Speaker 16: nineteen year olds in at the Treasury. This dude is 652 00:32:57,920 --> 00:33:04,200 Speaker 16: not smart. And the danger in not in the lack 653 00:33:04,240 --> 00:33:09,520 Speaker 16: of intelligence and the lack of expertise that Elon has. 654 00:33:09,560 --> 00:33:12,840 Speaker 16: I mean, this guy is one of the most morally 655 00:33:12,920 --> 00:33:22,959 Speaker 16: vacant but also just least knowledgeable about these systems that 656 00:33:23,000 --> 00:33:27,560 Speaker 16: we really know of. But the point is is that 657 00:33:28,000 --> 00:33:29,880 Speaker 16: what that means is that they're. 658 00:33:29,680 --> 00:33:31,000 Speaker 17: Going to hit a button. 659 00:33:32,560 --> 00:33:36,400 Speaker 16: Inevitably, they are going to hit a button, and things can. 660 00:33:36,760 --> 00:33:40,760 Speaker 1: Be calling Elon Musk not smart, is rich and Netflix. 661 00:33:40,880 --> 00:33:42,760 Speaker 1: If you want a good idea, I say that we 662 00:33:42,840 --> 00:33:44,800 Speaker 1: put them up against each other with an IQ test. 663 00:33:44,840 --> 00:33:47,040 Speaker 1: Can you imagine how great that'd be.

It is something you would expect 840 00:41:52,000 --> 00:41:56,759 Speaker 17: from a third world country. The roofs leak like a 841 00:41:56,840 --> 00:42:02,640 Speaker 17: calander catching the water in containers like garbage cans. That's 842 00:42:02,680 --> 00:42:05,640 Speaker 17: what we would have to do cells that leak. There's 843 00:42:05,760 --> 00:42:09,760 Speaker 17: no medical care. They're giving teeth cleanings from twenty eighteen. 844 00:42:10,120 --> 00:42:11,759 Speaker 17: If you have a tooth problem, they're only going to 845 00:42:11,800 --> 00:42:14,279 Speaker 17: help you if you need your tooth old. There are 846 00:42:14,360 --> 00:42:17,640 Speaker 17: biological male inmates we were forced to house with, and 847 00:42:17,680 --> 00:42:20,880 Speaker 17: we're sharing cells with people. So if you're forced to 848 00:42:20,920 --> 00:42:23,920 Speaker 17: house with one, you're sharing a small cell you're locked 849 00:42:23,920 --> 00:42:25,759 Speaker 17: into where you have to go to the bathroom and 850 00:42:25,840 --> 00:42:29,359 Speaker 17: change in front of this person. All of the men 851 00:42:29,520 --> 00:42:33,560 Speaker 17: that were in Hazelton Prison with me were all sex offenders, 852 00:42:34,600 --> 00:42:36,719 Speaker 17: one of them in there for selling a nine year 853 00:42:36,760 --> 00:42:42,960 Speaker 17: old little girl, others for child pornography. Not men you 854 00:42:43,000 --> 00:42:45,240 Speaker 17: want to be stuck in a small space with, especially 855 00:42:45,320 --> 00:42:49,680 Speaker 17: as a woman. And I mean everything was wrong. The 856 00:42:49,719 --> 00:42:54,560 Speaker 17: food was wrong, the place was unsanitary, the multiple buildings 857 00:42:54,560 --> 00:42:58,720 Speaker 17: with no hot water, so we had cold showers in winter. 858 00:42:59,000 --> 00:43:00,319 Speaker 17: Before I left hazel. 859 00:43:00,760 --> 00:43:03,279 Speaker 4: And tell us about solitary confinement, did you experience any 860 00:43:03,320 --> 00:43:03,919 Speaker 4: of that as well? 861 00:43:05,040 --> 00:43:07,759 Speaker 17: They only put me in the shoe for a little 862 00:43:07,800 --> 00:43:10,759 Speaker 17: bit and it was just a couple hours I was 863 00:43:10,760 --> 00:43:15,399 Speaker 17: in there, and the conditions were disgusting, filthy. I don't 864 00:43:15,440 --> 00:43:18,279 Speaker 17: know what substance was on the toilet, balls of hair 865 00:43:18,320 --> 00:43:22,520 Speaker 17: and dirt on the floor, matt so thin you might 866 00:43:22,560 --> 00:43:24,759 Speaker 17: as well have not had a matt to sleep on 867 00:43:24,960 --> 00:43:29,080 Speaker 17: at all. Just totally disgusting. 868 00:43:30,360 --> 00:43:33,000 Speaker 1: And Rachel, as mother of Ay, how did it feel 869 00:43:33,040 --> 00:43:36,040 Speaker 1: to be so estranged from your family and your children. 870 00:43:36,440 --> 00:43:38,640 Speaker 1: Were there any visits or did you get to speak 871 00:43:38,640 --> 00:43:39,280 Speaker 1: to them often? 872 00:43:41,040 --> 00:43:44,040 Speaker 17: I have a wonderful family that has been so supportive 873 00:43:44,040 --> 00:43:47,560 Speaker 17: through this whole thing, and I was blessed enough to 874 00:43:47,600 --> 00:43:50,560 Speaker 17: get a visit from a family or friend almost weekly, 875 00:43:51,080 --> 00:43:54,400 Speaker 17: which was wonderful. It was about a resala drive one way. 876 00:43:55,239 --> 00:43:57,960 Speaker 17: The bad part about it is for the first six 877 00:43:58,040 --> 00:44:00,919 Speaker 17: months of my stay at Hazeltin, they refused to give 878 00:44:00,920 --> 00:44:03,440 Speaker 17: me lunch every time I had a visitor, and they 879 00:44:03,480 --> 00:44:08,239 Speaker 17: also put me through an extra unnecessary strip search, improperly 880 00:44:08,320 --> 00:44:12,040 Speaker 17: done each and every time. For the first six months. 881 00:44:12,239 --> 00:44:15,040 Speaker 17: They said, do not have your family come visit you here. 882 00:44:15,520 --> 00:44:17,919 Speaker 17: But of course my family loves me, so that wasn't 883 00:44:17,920 --> 00:44:20,120 Speaker 17: going to work, and they came anyway, And that's what 884 00:44:20,200 --> 00:44:21,920 Speaker 17: I had to endure to see my family. 885 00:44:22,600 --> 00:44:25,080 Speaker 4: Once you saw that Donald Trump got reelected, I have 886 00:44:25,120 --> 00:44:27,440 Speaker 4: to imagine it was music to your ears and obviously 887 00:44:28,120 --> 00:44:30,720 Speaker 4: fifteen hundred other people. How did it feel to receive 888 00:44:30,760 --> 00:44:31,960 Speaker 4: that pardon last week? 889 00:44:33,480 --> 00:44:34,960 Speaker 9: It was a. 890 00:44:34,840 --> 00:44:38,000 Speaker 17: Breath of fresh air. I mean, I knew something was coming. 891 00:44:38,760 --> 00:44:41,640 Speaker 17: I trusted Trump was going to do something for us. 892 00:44:41,640 --> 00:44:45,400 Speaker 17: I just didn't know what or how or when. I 893 00:44:46,239 --> 00:44:48,880 Speaker 17: just didn't know. And so when it finally was happening, 894 00:44:48,960 --> 00:44:52,439 Speaker 17: it's like, Okay, the nightmare is over, not just for 895 00:44:52,520 --> 00:44:54,520 Speaker 17: me but for my whole family. 896 00:44:55,560 --> 00:44:58,239 Speaker 1: And what has life been like since you've been released 897 00:44:58,239 --> 00:45:00,239 Speaker 1: and now reunited with your family? 898 00:45:01,920 --> 00:45:02,280 Speaker 7: Busy? 899 00:45:03,440 --> 00:45:06,760 Speaker 17: I've hardly had time to stop and think, which is fine, 900 00:45:06,800 --> 00:45:10,640 Speaker 17: because when you're jumping back in there's things that we 901 00:45:10,719 --> 00:45:12,920 Speaker 17: have to deal with that most people don't consider. For me, 902 00:45:13,719 --> 00:45:16,840 Speaker 17: I had to move and now I'm getting to move again, 903 00:45:17,480 --> 00:45:20,200 Speaker 17: and I have work to do on the house that 904 00:45:20,239 --> 00:45:22,560 Speaker 17: I'm moving into. And then there's all the family gatherings 905 00:45:22,560 --> 00:45:25,799 Speaker 17: and the friends gatherings, and of course the world is 906 00:45:25,880 --> 00:45:28,640 Speaker 17: curious what's happening. And then you know, I had no 907 00:45:28,760 --> 00:45:32,720 Speaker 17: driver's license. Today I just came from the Sheriff's office 908 00:45:32,840 --> 00:45:35,920 Speaker 17: trying to see if I can get my concealed carry permit. 909 00:45:36,320 --> 00:45:38,080 Speaker 17: You know how far it is a part in reach? 910 00:45:38,280 --> 00:45:40,799 Speaker 17: Is am I still going to have a record? Can 911 00:45:40,880 --> 00:45:43,680 Speaker 17: I get all my rights back? I'm still sorting through this, 912 00:45:43,800 --> 00:45:46,120 Speaker 17: trying to figure it all out, and it takes time. 913 00:45:46,520 --> 00:45:48,520 Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm sure it takes some time to acclimate back. 914 00:45:48,760 --> 00:45:51,719 Speaker 4: I'm curious, do you regret at this point going to 915 00:45:51,760 --> 00:45:54,000 Speaker 4: the Capitol that day, and looking back, would you have 916 00:45:54,080 --> 00:45:55,480 Speaker 4: done anything differently. 917 00:45:57,680 --> 00:46:01,120 Speaker 17: I don't regret going to the capital that day, but 918 00:46:01,160 --> 00:46:04,400 Speaker 17: I do regret my actions. I think it would have 919 00:46:04,440 --> 00:46:10,080 Speaker 17: been beautiful if we would have had thousands of patriotic 920 00:46:10,160 --> 00:46:14,200 Speaker 17: citizens just sit down, just sit down. I wish I 921 00:46:14,239 --> 00:46:17,040 Speaker 17: could go back and just do that and instead of 922 00:46:18,320 --> 00:46:22,799 Speaker 17: getting sucked into the violence of that day and that 923 00:46:24,719 --> 00:46:27,560 Speaker 17: out of control protest. But I can't go back. We 924 00:46:27,640 --> 00:46:29,680 Speaker 17: can't go back, So all we can do is learn 925 00:46:29,680 --> 00:46:31,480 Speaker 17: from our mistakes and move forward. 926 00:46:32,160 --> 00:46:35,000 Speaker 1: Going back to that day, did you notice anything was 927 00:46:35,080 --> 00:46:37,520 Speaker 1: off or there were people there that shouldn't be there, 928 00:46:37,520 --> 00:46:39,400 Speaker 1: And if so, when when did that kind of click 929 00:46:39,440 --> 00:46:39,680 Speaker 1: for you? 930 00:46:40,960 --> 00:46:44,120 Speaker 17: Okay, I didn't notice people off, But I've been to 931 00:46:44,200 --> 00:46:47,359 Speaker 17: a lot of protests, you know, all through COVID in 932 00:46:47,400 --> 00:46:51,000 Speaker 17: my state of Pennsylvania. I went to protest after protest 933 00:46:51,040 --> 00:46:52,759 Speaker 17: because they were telling us who could work and who 934 00:46:52,800 --> 00:46:55,520 Speaker 17: couldn't work, and I didn't agree with it. And so 935 00:46:55,560 --> 00:46:59,960 Speaker 17: I've seen officers diffuse a situation. But at the cap 936 00:47:00,320 --> 00:47:03,920 Speaker 17: that day, when we got there to the building, the 937 00:47:03,920 --> 00:47:07,160 Speaker 17: police opened fire on us, and I don't understand. And 938 00:47:07,440 --> 00:47:10,560 Speaker 17: of course the bullets weren't real bullets. They're supposed to 939 00:47:10,560 --> 00:47:14,040 Speaker 17: be little rubber bullets, but in that icy cold temperature, 940 00:47:14,400 --> 00:47:18,200 Speaker 17: they were like rocks projecting down into the crowd, and 941 00:47:18,239 --> 00:47:21,640 Speaker 17: none of us understood why are they doing this to us? 942 00:47:21,680 --> 00:47:23,800 Speaker 17: And then of course it was followed by the pepper 943 00:47:23,840 --> 00:47:29,360 Speaker 17: spray and the flash bangs and batons, and it just 944 00:47:29,480 --> 00:47:31,520 Speaker 17: it got out of control from there. But when that 945 00:47:31,600 --> 00:47:34,279 Speaker 17: happened at the beginning, we were all standing on a 946 00:47:34,320 --> 00:47:38,200 Speaker 17: public sidewalk and we hadn't passed this barricade that went 947 00:47:38,239 --> 00:47:41,000 Speaker 17: all the way around the capitol, and that's where the 948 00:47:41,000 --> 00:47:45,000 Speaker 17: confusion came in. And again I wish I could go back, 949 00:47:45,040 --> 00:47:46,920 Speaker 17: and I would have just sat down when it started 950 00:47:46,960 --> 00:47:49,800 Speaker 17: to get out of control, But I can't change things. 951 00:47:50,400 --> 00:47:54,600 Speaker 17: And well, have. 952 00:47:54,640 --> 00:47:57,520 Speaker 4: You spoken to any of your other fellow J six 953 00:47:57,560 --> 00:48:00,640 Speaker 4: defendants about that day, because there's obviously ansidering. 954 00:48:00,280 --> 00:48:01,839 Speaker 5: Amount of timehere you weren't able to talk to him. 955 00:48:01,920 --> 00:48:03,440 Speaker 4: But of course if you've spoken to any of them, 956 00:48:03,440 --> 00:48:06,120 Speaker 4: and if you expect that there will be in the 957 00:48:06,160 --> 00:48:09,000 Speaker 4: next four years some sort of investigation or look back 958 00:48:09,040 --> 00:48:11,680 Speaker 4: at this to see exactly what went wrong, and whether 959 00:48:11,719 --> 00:48:16,080 Speaker 4: there were instigators there that have been hidden so far. 960 00:48:17,560 --> 00:48:21,600 Speaker 17: Well, I have spoken to January sixth people about this, 961 00:48:21,920 --> 00:48:26,960 Speaker 17: and we do expect some investigations. The ones that I've 962 00:48:27,000 --> 00:48:30,120 Speaker 17: spoken to have all been disappointed that the January sixth 963 00:48:30,160 --> 00:48:34,640 Speaker 17: committee all got pardons before the Trump administration took over. 964 00:48:35,480 --> 00:48:38,760 Speaker 17: But we're still hoping for some form of investigation because 965 00:48:38,800 --> 00:48:41,319 Speaker 17: we would like to know what actually happened that day. 966 00:48:41,360 --> 00:48:44,920 Speaker 17: Why wasn't the National Guard brought in? Why why did 967 00:48:44,960 --> 00:48:47,000 Speaker 17: the police behave in that way at the beginning. Is 968 00:48:47,040 --> 00:48:49,120 Speaker 17: it just a lack of training or is it something 969 00:48:49,200 --> 00:48:53,840 Speaker 17: more nefarious. We don't know, and we don't have those answers, 970 00:48:53,960 --> 00:48:55,160 Speaker 17: but it would be nice to know. 971 00:48:56,320 --> 00:48:57,279 Speaker 2: Rachel, this just came out. 972 00:48:57,280 --> 00:48:59,560 Speaker 1: We have about thirty seconds left, but the FBI revealed 973 00:48:59,560 --> 00:49:02,560 Speaker 1: that five thousand out of the thirteen thousand agents were 974 00:49:02,680 --> 00:49:06,319 Speaker 1: focused on the January sixth protests. 975 00:49:05,560 --> 00:49:08,680 Speaker 2: According to this report here. What's your reaction to that? 976 00:49:08,800 --> 00:49:13,200 Speaker 1: Having so much of this focused on essentially January sixth. 977 00:49:14,719 --> 00:49:15,799 Speaker 17: That's a lot, isn't it. 978 00:49:16,280 --> 00:49:16,480 Speaker 15: Yeah? 979 00:49:17,320 --> 00:49:19,600 Speaker 2: Thirty nine percent of the entire bureau. 980 00:49:20,440 --> 00:49:23,520 Speaker 17: I just got to wonder sometimes I wonder how people 981 00:49:23,600 --> 00:49:25,960 Speaker 17: do their jobs, you know, is it just a paycheck 982 00:49:26,000 --> 00:49:30,279 Speaker 17: for them. Did anybody in the FBI step back and say, hey, 983 00:49:30,680 --> 00:49:33,120 Speaker 17: maybe we should be focused on other things. Did any 984 00:49:33,120 --> 00:49:35,560 Speaker 17: of them say we can't do this or were they 985 00:49:35,600 --> 00:49:38,520 Speaker 17: all just doing the job because they were doing their 986 00:49:38,640 --> 00:49:41,719 Speaker 17: job for a paycheck. That bothers me the most out of. 987 00:49:41,719 --> 00:49:47,200 Speaker 1: It, Rachel, thank you so much for being with us today, Rachel, Well, 988 00:49:47,400 --> 00:49:49,759 Speaker 1: thank you for having of course, and thank you for 989 00:49:49,800 --> 00:49:53,400 Speaker 1: watching today.
