1 00:00:01,080 --> 00:00:03,400 Speaker 1: Welcome in. As the Ben Ferguson Show, it is so 2 00:00:03,520 --> 00:00:06,440 Speaker 1: nice to have you with us. We have new numbers 3 00:00:06,440 --> 00:00:10,080 Speaker 1: now that are going to shock you. Illegal migrant population 4 00:00:10,640 --> 00:00:15,360 Speaker 1: is now almost nineteen million. I'm going to say that again, 5 00:00:16,239 --> 00:00:22,000 Speaker 1: almost nineteen million illegal immigrants are living in the United States. 6 00:00:22,640 --> 00:00:28,080 Speaker 1: That according to the Federation for American Immigration Reform, since 7 00:00:28,360 --> 00:00:33,440 Speaker 1: December of twenty twenty estimates, the illegal alien population in 8 00:00:33,440 --> 00:00:36,959 Speaker 1: the United States has grown by four point one million, 9 00:00:37,760 --> 00:00:42,240 Speaker 1: or twenty eight point two percent, reflecting an unprecedented wave 10 00:00:42,360 --> 00:00:46,839 Speaker 1: of illegal immigration during the Biden administration. The group is 11 00:00:46,880 --> 00:00:51,440 Speaker 1: now reporting in these shocking numbers. The higher figures will 12 00:00:51,479 --> 00:00:55,120 Speaker 1: add to pressure on GOP leaders in President Donald Trump, 13 00:00:55,120 --> 00:00:58,800 Speaker 1: as they are being pushed by business interests to roll 14 00:00:58,880 --> 00:01:03,720 Speaker 1: back the popular deportation of all illegal immigrants. But the 15 00:01:03,760 --> 00:01:08,160 Speaker 1: deportations are both popular and beneficial for Americans during the 16 00:01:08,240 --> 00:01:12,120 Speaker 1: run up to the twenty twenty six midterm elections. They say, 17 00:01:12,720 --> 00:01:16,920 Speaker 1: now GOP members are obviously looking at this data, and 18 00:01:17,040 --> 00:01:20,640 Speaker 1: many that are Rhinos or barely Republicans are now saying, 19 00:01:20,680 --> 00:01:23,560 Speaker 1: maybe we should just back off a little bit. That 20 00:01:23,680 --> 00:01:27,160 Speaker 1: is not what we should be doing at all. Quote, 21 00:01:27,520 --> 00:01:29,720 Speaker 1: we got a little hiccup with some of the Hispanic 22 00:01:29,760 --> 00:01:33,679 Speaker 1: and Latino voters, for certain, because some of the immigration 23 00:01:33,840 --> 00:01:37,960 Speaker 1: enforcement was viewed as being over zealous. That is what 24 00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:41,839 Speaker 1: how Speaker Mike Johnson said on March tenth. But here's 25 00:01:41,880 --> 00:01:45,280 Speaker 1: the good news. We're in a course correction mode right now. 26 00:01:45,319 --> 00:01:49,200 Speaker 1: The speaker went on to say Senator Mark Wayne Mullen, 27 00:01:49,640 --> 00:01:53,320 Speaker 1: the Republican from Oklahoma, who is now the incoming Homeland 28 00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:59,320 Speaker 1: Security chief, opposes any migrant amnesty but has been ambivalent 29 00:01:59,440 --> 00:02:03,680 Speaker 1: on hisfer for deportation policy. That is something that many 30 00:02:03,720 --> 00:02:07,120 Speaker 1: are taking a look at right now now. The population 31 00:02:07,480 --> 00:02:11,960 Speaker 1: of illegal migrants is in addition to the huge annual 32 00:02:12,040 --> 00:02:16,240 Speaker 1: inflow of roughly eight hundred thousand legal migrants and the 33 00:02:16,280 --> 00:02:21,040 Speaker 1: resident population of roughly two point five million temporary visa 34 00:02:21,080 --> 00:02:26,799 Speaker 1: workers for white collar, blue collar and seasonal jobs. Now, 35 00:02:26,800 --> 00:02:29,880 Speaker 1: the Fair Group explained why their estimate is higher than 36 00:02:29,919 --> 00:02:34,240 Speaker 1: the estimates provided by the group that favor migration fairs. 37 00:02:34,280 --> 00:02:38,360 Speaker 1: Eighteen point six million includes several hundred thousand who illegally 38 00:02:38,520 --> 00:02:42,400 Speaker 1: entered the country but who were given temporary documentation by 39 00:02:42,440 --> 00:02:46,840 Speaker 1: President Joe Biden's pro immigration borders are at the time. Also, 40 00:02:47,200 --> 00:02:49,920 Speaker 1: the census Bureau changed the way it counts the migrant 41 00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:56,800 Speaker 1: population during Biden's tenure. The Census Bureau's mythology changed, and 42 00:02:56,880 --> 00:03:01,040 Speaker 1: it violates the long held position that official data and 43 00:03:01,200 --> 00:03:05,800 Speaker 1: organizations relying solely on that data were dramatically undercounting the 44 00:03:06,040 --> 00:03:10,920 Speaker 1: foreign born and thus the illegal alien population. This is 45 00:03:10,960 --> 00:03:14,000 Speaker 1: because the data in the twenty twenty three American Community 46 00:03:14,160 --> 00:03:18,440 Speaker 1: Survey and the current Population Survey that demographers and other 47 00:03:18,520 --> 00:03:23,919 Speaker 1: researchers rely on were weighted based on pre revision Bureau 48 00:03:24,240 --> 00:03:28,360 Speaker 1: estimates and will undercut the foreign born to a similarly 49 00:03:28,480 --> 00:03:33,440 Speaker 1: significant degree unless corrected. Now, only one year ago estimates 50 00:03:33,440 --> 00:03:37,200 Speaker 1: of the foreign born population based on the CPS show 51 00:03:37,280 --> 00:03:42,000 Speaker 1: that after four years of mass migration into this country 52 00:03:42,040 --> 00:03:47,800 Speaker 1: mass immigration, the foreign born population listen carefully stood at a 53 00:03:47,920 --> 00:03:52,160 Speaker 1: record high over fifty million. That is coming from the 54 00:03:52,200 --> 00:03:56,480 Speaker 1: New York Times reporting it was the largest in American history, 55 00:03:56,880 --> 00:04:00,680 Speaker 1: surpassing the Ellis Island Great Wave era of the late 56 00:04:00,800 --> 00:04:05,680 Speaker 1: eighteen nineties. At least sixty percent of the foreigners who 57 00:04:05,800 --> 00:04:10,080 Speaker 1: during this wave were illegal aliens. Now thinks the Census 58 00:04:10,080 --> 00:04:14,680 Speaker 1: Bureau's revision of its foreign born population estimates, we know 59 00:04:14,840 --> 00:04:19,240 Speaker 1: that even this record high was understated by millions, and 60 00:04:19,360 --> 00:04:21,760 Speaker 1: clearly it was done on purpose, so you didn't realize 61 00:04:21,800 --> 00:04:28,160 Speaker 1: how bad the problem actually was that Democrats created on purpose. Now, 62 00:04:28,200 --> 00:04:31,640 Speaker 1: Donald Trump's policy of deporting all illegal immigrants is already 63 00:04:31,640 --> 00:04:35,880 Speaker 1: improving the economy by the way for ordinary Americans, especially 64 00:04:35,920 --> 00:04:39,560 Speaker 1: for millions of working class Latinos who are seeing their 65 00:04:39,640 --> 00:04:44,280 Speaker 1: wages go up in a wide variety of jobs. Federal 66 00:04:44,520 --> 00:04:48,680 Speaker 1: and market data show that wages are up and housing 67 00:04:48,760 --> 00:04:54,240 Speaker 1: costs are down. Inflation is declining, transport costs are shrinking, 68 00:04:54,760 --> 00:04:59,840 Speaker 1: crime is dropping in many areas significantly, and corporations are 69 00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:05,160 Speaker 1: beending heavily to help Americans become more productive. The resulting 70 00:05:05,240 --> 00:05:09,279 Speaker 1: prosperity will likely help raise birth rates, as husbands gain 71 00:05:09,360 --> 00:05:13,880 Speaker 1: higher wages and wives gain greater confidence in their future, 72 00:05:14,040 --> 00:05:18,240 Speaker 1: meaning they're more willing to bring children into the world. Now, 73 00:05:18,279 --> 00:05:20,560 Speaker 1: you look at all this data that I just gave you, 74 00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:23,440 Speaker 1: and the big question that so many are asking is 75 00:05:24,160 --> 00:05:28,160 Speaker 1: why is the president not getting more credit for what 76 00:05:28,200 --> 00:05:31,720 Speaker 1: we're witnessing. Well, part of it is because Democrats are 77 00:05:31,720 --> 00:05:34,960 Speaker 1: playing the game differently. In fact, Chuck Schumer has made 78 00:05:34,960 --> 00:05:37,760 Speaker 1: it very clear he doesn't stand with the American people. 79 00:05:38,320 --> 00:05:41,360 Speaker 1: He is officially now taking a stand for quote tens 80 00:05:41,400 --> 00:05:46,520 Speaker 1: of billions of illegal aliens ICE could remove from voter roles. 81 00:05:46,839 --> 00:05:50,480 Speaker 1: It all goes back to power. Now, before we get 82 00:05:50,520 --> 00:05:52,640 Speaker 1: to that, I want to talk to you about the 83 00:05:52,720 --> 00:05:56,000 Speaker 1: incredible work that's being done right now by Compassion or 84 00:05:56,120 --> 00:05:58,760 Speaker 1: National and how you can help. I want you to 85 00:05:58,839 --> 00:06:01,279 Speaker 1: pause what you're doing for just one minute, and I 86 00:06:01,320 --> 00:06:04,479 Speaker 1: want you to hear about Alejandra. She lives in a 87 00:06:04,480 --> 00:06:08,919 Speaker 1: remote community with very few resources and little to no healthcare. 88 00:06:09,520 --> 00:06:13,400 Speaker 1: So when Alejandra gets sick, her parents have no real options, 89 00:06:13,720 --> 00:06:17,839 Speaker 1: no doctors in their community, and no money for real 90 00:06:17,880 --> 00:06:21,839 Speaker 1: medical care. By the third day, her body was shutting down. 91 00:06:22,120 --> 00:06:24,799 Speaker 1: She woke up and just long enough to tell her mom, 92 00:06:25,440 --> 00:06:29,360 Speaker 1: I can't take the pain anymore. I can't keep going. 93 00:06:29,960 --> 00:06:33,839 Speaker 1: Her parents drove hours to find a doctor who tried everything, 94 00:06:34,240 --> 00:06:38,039 Speaker 1: but she needed a private hospital and that was impossible 95 00:06:38,240 --> 00:06:41,919 Speaker 1: for her family to afford. And that is when Compassion 96 00:06:42,040 --> 00:06:47,160 Speaker 1: International stepped in. Now, through Compassion, Alejandra was treated and 97 00:06:47,240 --> 00:06:52,080 Speaker 1: against all odds, she survived. She lived because someone just 98 00:06:52,240 --> 00:06:56,320 Speaker 1: like you took action right now. Unfortunately, there are children 99 00:06:56,640 --> 00:07:00,480 Speaker 1: just like Alejandra who won't survive unless someone like U 100 00:07:00,600 --> 00:07:06,640 Speaker 1: steps in. Compassion International partners with local churches, providing children 101 00:07:06,680 --> 00:07:11,160 Speaker 1: with the support that they need, critical medical care, plus food, 102 00:07:11,680 --> 00:07:16,240 Speaker 1: education and the hope of the gospel, all in Jesus' name. 103 00:07:16,720 --> 00:07:20,800 Speaker 1: So help a child just like Alejandra today you can 104 00:07:20,880 --> 00:07:26,520 Speaker 1: visit Compassion dot com. That's Compassion dot com. Which brings 105 00:07:26,560 --> 00:07:29,880 Speaker 1: us to another aspect of how many illegal immigrants have 106 00:07:29,920 --> 00:07:33,320 Speaker 1: come into this country. There's a number that should make 107 00:07:33,360 --> 00:07:36,200 Speaker 1: every American stop and think. And it's something the media 108 00:07:36,240 --> 00:07:39,440 Speaker 1: spent years barely talking about, and even now as we 109 00:07:39,480 --> 00:07:43,000 Speaker 1: have real concerns about sleeper sales in the US, they're 110 00:07:43,080 --> 00:07:47,360 Speaker 1: still not covering it. It's the number that every American 111 00:07:47,400 --> 00:07:50,680 Speaker 1: should be thinking about now. The number of people on 112 00:07:50,720 --> 00:07:53,480 Speaker 1: the Terraces watch lists who were encountered trying to cross 113 00:07:53,520 --> 00:07:56,160 Speaker 1: into the United States to the southern border. That's a 114 00:07:56,240 --> 00:08:01,160 Speaker 1: number that's really important. Now. Remember these are out random migrants. 115 00:08:01,400 --> 00:08:05,160 Speaker 1: These are literally individuals flagged in the Terraft screening data set, 116 00:08:05,600 --> 00:08:08,880 Speaker 1: the federal government's database of people with known or suspected 117 00:08:08,960 --> 00:08:12,880 Speaker 1: ties directly to terrorism, and the number of skyrocket over 118 00:08:12,920 --> 00:08:17,000 Speaker 1: the past several years. According to US Customs and Border Protection, 119 00:08:17,520 --> 00:08:20,560 Speaker 1: between the Fiscal years of twenty twenty one and the 120 00:08:20,560 --> 00:08:24,960 Speaker 1: fiscal year twenty twenty four, border agents encountered more than 121 00:08:25,120 --> 00:08:29,160 Speaker 1: three one hundred and eighty individuals they were on the 122 00:08:29,320 --> 00:08:32,760 Speaker 1: terrorist watch list attempting to cross into the United States 123 00:08:33,400 --> 00:08:37,000 Speaker 1: at ports of entry or between them. Now, to put 124 00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:40,520 Speaker 1: that in perspective, during the four years before that, when 125 00:08:40,559 --> 00:08:43,800 Speaker 1: Donald Trump was president from twenty seventeen to twenty twenty, 126 00:08:44,400 --> 00:08:47,640 Speaker 1: the total number of encounters with individuals on the watch 127 00:08:47,720 --> 00:08:52,840 Speaker 1: list was only eleven. When the Democrats opened our southern border, 128 00:08:53,559 --> 00:08:58,480 Speaker 1: that number exploded to three hundred and eighty individuals caught 129 00:08:58,880 --> 00:09:01,520 Speaker 1: that were on the terrast watch list attempting to come 130 00:09:01,559 --> 00:09:05,079 Speaker 1: into the country. Let that sink in for a second, 131 00:09:05,559 --> 00:09:09,400 Speaker 1: eleven over four years, compared with hundreds in just a 132 00:09:09,440 --> 00:09:14,200 Speaker 1: few years afterwards. What changed only one thing. Democrats knew 133 00:09:14,520 --> 00:09:17,600 Speaker 1: with their open border policy they could change America. They 134 00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:20,079 Speaker 1: also knew they were going to let terras in as 135 00:09:20,120 --> 00:09:24,160 Speaker 1: well as cartel members and rapists and murderers. And the 136 00:09:24,240 --> 00:09:28,199 Speaker 1: numbers surged dramatically as the border crisis worsen and word 137 00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:31,720 Speaker 1: got out. And the fiscal year twenty twenty one, for example, 138 00:09:31,760 --> 00:09:35,080 Speaker 1: when Joe Biden was in office, fifteen people on the 139 00:09:35,160 --> 00:09:38,440 Speaker 1: terrorists watch lists were encountered at the border. Now we 140 00:09:38,480 --> 00:09:41,400 Speaker 1: don't know how many got across it did not actually 141 00:09:41,440 --> 00:09:45,920 Speaker 1: get caught by border agents or ice. That number then 142 00:09:46,080 --> 00:09:50,840 Speaker 1: skyrocketed in twenty twenty two to ninety eight encounters. Again, 143 00:09:51,080 --> 00:09:53,040 Speaker 1: we don't know how many came into the country that 144 00:09:53,080 --> 00:09:56,840 Speaker 1: we didn't catch during twenty twenty two. In twenty twenty three, 145 00:09:56,880 --> 00:10:01,439 Speaker 1: the number skyrocketed again to one hundred in sixty nine 146 00:10:01,600 --> 00:10:04,480 Speaker 1: encounters with people on the terrorists watch lists. And again 147 00:10:04,640 --> 00:10:07,120 Speaker 1: we have no idea how many godaways in twenty twenty 148 00:10:07,160 --> 00:10:10,680 Speaker 1: three terrorists got into America that we didn't catch. And 149 00:10:10,720 --> 00:10:13,520 Speaker 1: then in twenty twenty four the number went up even 150 00:10:13,679 --> 00:10:17,679 Speaker 1: more to one hundred and seventy two encounters with people 151 00:10:17,840 --> 00:10:21,800 Speaker 1: that had ties to terrorism or were terrorists. I'll say 152 00:10:21,840 --> 00:10:24,080 Speaker 1: it again, we don't know how many got across the 153 00:10:24,080 --> 00:10:27,240 Speaker 1: border that we didn't catch. In the millions of people 154 00:10:27,280 --> 00:10:30,800 Speaker 1: that the Biden's let in, that means the highest numbers 155 00:10:30,920 --> 00:10:34,760 Speaker 1: ever recorded happened during the last several years. And here's 156 00:10:34,800 --> 00:10:38,560 Speaker 1: another number that should concern everyone as well. While border 157 00:10:38,559 --> 00:10:42,720 Speaker 1: patrol can report the people they actually catch, officials also 158 00:10:42,960 --> 00:10:46,520 Speaker 1: estimate that more than one point seven million. Godaways, it's 159 00:10:46,559 --> 00:10:49,959 Speaker 1: one point seven million people, and any one of them 160 00:10:49,960 --> 00:10:53,440 Speaker 1: could be a terrorist across the border during the same period, 161 00:10:53,960 --> 00:10:58,119 Speaker 1: people who were never apprehended and whose identities remain unknown. 162 00:10:58,720 --> 00:11:02,680 Speaker 1: So the obvious anstey question now becomes this, if hundreds 163 00:11:02,679 --> 00:11:06,120 Speaker 1: of individuals on the terrorists watch lists were caught, how 164 00:11:06,160 --> 00:11:10,040 Speaker 1: many may have slipped through the cracks undetected. That's the 165 00:11:10,120 --> 00:11:13,600 Speaker 1: concern that many national security experts and lawmakers are now 166 00:11:13,720 --> 00:11:17,480 Speaker 1: raising that question over and over again this week, because 167 00:11:17,520 --> 00:11:20,520 Speaker 1: the reality is this, the southern border isn't just an 168 00:11:20,600 --> 00:11:26,320 Speaker 1: immigration issue. It is truly a national security issue. And 169 00:11:26,360 --> 00:11:30,439 Speaker 1: when individuals flagged in terrorism databases are being encountered at 170 00:11:30,440 --> 00:11:34,080 Speaker 1: the border in record numbers and millions of migrants are 171 00:11:34,120 --> 00:11:39,520 Speaker 1: crossing illegally, the risk isn't theoretical anymore, It's real. And 172 00:11:39,559 --> 00:11:42,240 Speaker 1: that's why border security has become one of the most 173 00:11:42,440 --> 00:11:46,760 Speaker 1: urgent national security debates in Washington, DC this week, because 174 00:11:46,800 --> 00:11:50,360 Speaker 1: protecting the border ultimately means protecting the American people. Now, 175 00:11:50,360 --> 00:11:53,280 Speaker 1: I go back to the basic stats, three hunter and 176 00:11:53,320 --> 00:11:56,240 Speaker 1: eighty plus individuals on the terrorists watch lists were encountered 177 00:11:56,280 --> 00:12:00,000 Speaker 1: at the border. When Joe Biden was present, only eleven 178 00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:02,880 Speaker 1: were encountered when Donald Trump was present the first time. 179 00:12:03,720 --> 00:12:07,280 Speaker 1: This is what the election in the midterms is all about. 180 00:12:07,400 --> 00:12:10,160 Speaker 1: And as we are seeing warnings of more sleeper cells 181 00:12:10,160 --> 00:12:13,240 Speaker 1: that may have been activated and more small attacks so 182 00:12:13,440 --> 00:12:16,680 Speaker 1: far that have already happened this country, you have to 183 00:12:16,760 --> 00:12:20,480 Speaker 1: wonder why are Democrats not doing more to stand with 184 00:12:20,559 --> 00:12:24,680 Speaker 1: President Trump and to fight these terrorists and find all 185 00:12:24,720 --> 00:12:26,520 Speaker 1: of those on the terrorists watch lists that may have 186 00:12:26,559 --> 00:12:31,240 Speaker 1: gone into this country's interior without anyone actually knowing they 187 00:12:31,240 --> 00:12:35,240 Speaker 1: got across our southern border. This is exactly why it's 188 00:12:35,280 --> 00:12:38,000 Speaker 1: time for so many Americans to wake up to this 189 00:12:38,120 --> 00:12:41,240 Speaker 1: real issue and the media should do their job and 190 00:12:41,320 --> 00:12:45,800 Speaker 1: cover it exactly like I did right now. When Donald 191 00:12:45,840 --> 00:12:49,079 Speaker 1: Trump ran for office again, he made a very clear 192 00:12:49,120 --> 00:12:52,680 Speaker 1: promise to the American people, secure the border and remove 193 00:12:52,679 --> 00:12:56,760 Speaker 1: the most dangerous criminals who entered this country illegally. Now, 194 00:12:56,840 --> 00:12:59,800 Speaker 1: let's be clear, this is a story right now that 195 00:12:59,800 --> 00:13:02,920 Speaker 1: matters when it comes to national security. We all know 196 00:13:03,080 --> 00:13:07,440 Speaker 1: about the real concerns over sleeper cells terrasts that came 197 00:13:07,440 --> 00:13:11,319 Speaker 1: in across our southern border that had been activated because 198 00:13:11,360 --> 00:13:14,040 Speaker 1: of what we are doing in Iran and in the 199 00:13:14,080 --> 00:13:17,600 Speaker 1: Middle East in general. That is the reason why this 200 00:13:17,679 --> 00:13:20,719 Speaker 1: story of immigration is now coming back to be a 201 00:13:20,800 --> 00:13:23,600 Speaker 1: much bigger story than just people running across the border 202 00:13:23,679 --> 00:13:27,160 Speaker 1: from Latin American countries. There are many people that came 203 00:13:27,200 --> 00:13:30,240 Speaker 1: across our southern border that was wide open under the 204 00:13:30,240 --> 00:13:34,920 Speaker 1: Biden administration who were in fact on the terrorists watch list. 205 00:13:35,240 --> 00:13:38,840 Speaker 1: How do we know that because our own government, including 206 00:13:38,920 --> 00:13:41,960 Speaker 1: during the time that Joe Biden was present, said it 207 00:13:42,120 --> 00:13:45,160 Speaker 1: was actually happening more than any of us could have imagined, 208 00:13:45,559 --> 00:13:48,360 Speaker 1: that men and women were coming across the southern border 209 00:13:48,679 --> 00:13:52,320 Speaker 1: and many of them were on the terrorists watch lists. Now, 210 00:13:52,360 --> 00:13:55,920 Speaker 1: when Trump ran for office, he said, I promise to 211 00:13:55,960 --> 00:13:58,679 Speaker 1: the American people, I will secure that border. And not 212 00:13:58,720 --> 00:14:01,120 Speaker 1: only has he done it, but he's done it in 213 00:14:01,160 --> 00:14:04,400 Speaker 1: the way that many Americans say was a very humane 214 00:14:04,400 --> 00:14:07,440 Speaker 1: way of doing it. Now, he didn't just talk about 215 00:14:07,480 --> 00:14:09,840 Speaker 1: securing the border as many others have done the past. 216 00:14:10,160 --> 00:14:13,240 Speaker 1: He literally did it. And now that promise is being 217 00:14:13,280 --> 00:14:17,640 Speaker 1: backed up with hard numbers. According to the Immigration and 218 00:14:17,679 --> 00:14:22,800 Speaker 1: Customs Enforcement and the Department of Homeland Security, Enforcement operations 219 00:14:23,000 --> 00:14:27,160 Speaker 1: surged almost immediately after President Trump took office again in 220 00:14:27,200 --> 00:14:30,080 Speaker 1: the first fifty days alone, we now know that federal 221 00:14:30,080 --> 00:14:35,000 Speaker 1: agents arrested more than thirty two thousand illegal immigrants in 222 00:14:35,160 --> 00:14:39,640 Speaker 1: nationwide enforcement operations. Let me repeat that, thirty two thousand 223 00:14:39,720 --> 00:14:42,360 Speaker 1: arrests in just the first fifty days. And here's the 224 00:14:42,400 --> 00:14:46,280 Speaker 1: part that the media won't talk about at all. Nearly 225 00:14:46,360 --> 00:14:51,560 Speaker 1: seventy percent of those arrests already had criminal convictions or 226 00:14:51,560 --> 00:14:55,960 Speaker 1: were facing criminal charges. These weren't random people being picked up. 227 00:14:56,320 --> 00:14:59,560 Speaker 1: These were criminals, many of them violent, and some of 228 00:14:59,600 --> 00:15:03,280 Speaker 1: them on the terrorists watch list. Now, out of those arrests, 229 00:15:03,440 --> 00:15:06,520 Speaker 1: we also have learned now that more than fourteen thousand 230 00:15:06,560 --> 00:15:10,920 Speaker 1: of them were illegal immigrants already convicted of crimes not 231 00:15:11,040 --> 00:15:15,240 Speaker 1: in other countries, but crimes in the United States of America. 232 00:15:15,960 --> 00:15:19,960 Speaker 1: Another ten thousand we're facing pending criminal charges, not in 233 00:15:20,000 --> 00:15:24,000 Speaker 1: other countries, but in the United States of America. And 234 00:15:24,040 --> 00:15:26,480 Speaker 1: then when you dig deeper into these numbers that we 235 00:15:26,640 --> 00:15:31,760 Speaker 1: now are seeing, it gets even more shocking. Federal agents 236 00:15:31,800 --> 00:15:35,920 Speaker 1: were now being told arrested one thousand, one hundred and 237 00:15:36,040 --> 00:15:39,640 Speaker 1: fifty five suspected gang members in the first fifty days, 238 00:15:40,360 --> 00:15:44,680 Speaker 1: forty four foreign fugitives wanted in other countries, twenty nine 239 00:15:44,720 --> 00:15:49,440 Speaker 1: individuals flagged as suspected terrists. Yes, I'm going to give 240 00:15:49,480 --> 00:15:53,840 Speaker 1: you that number again. In the first fifty days that 241 00:15:54,000 --> 00:15:59,560 Speaker 1: Donald Trump was back in office, twenty nine individuals were 242 00:15:59,640 --> 00:16:04,920 Speaker 1: flat as suspected terrorists. That is what the Democrats led 243 00:16:04,960 --> 00:16:07,720 Speaker 1: into this country with open borders, and they knew it. 244 00:16:08,000 --> 00:16:10,640 Speaker 1: Now the story gets even more disturbing when you look 245 00:16:10,640 --> 00:16:15,080 Speaker 1: specifically at crimes against children, because one of the top 246 00:16:15,120 --> 00:16:19,720 Speaker 1: priorities of these operations under Trump's leadership have been tracking 247 00:16:19,800 --> 00:16:24,600 Speaker 1: down illegal immigrants who are accused or convicted of sexual 248 00:16:24,720 --> 00:16:31,120 Speaker 1: crimes involving minors. For example, in just the Houston, Texas 249 00:16:31,160 --> 00:16:36,160 Speaker 1: region alone, ICE report arresting two hundred and fourteen illegal 250 00:16:36,240 --> 00:16:40,360 Speaker 1: immigrants charged with or convicted of child sex crimes in 251 00:16:40,400 --> 00:16:45,040 Speaker 1: the first six months of the Trump administration. That is 252 00:16:45,120 --> 00:16:50,440 Speaker 1: two hundred and fourteen child predators in one single region, 253 00:16:51,000 --> 00:16:54,440 Speaker 1: and officials say the number has already surpassed the total 254 00:16:54,520 --> 00:16:58,800 Speaker 1: arrests of those crimes during the entire previous year when 255 00:16:58,880 --> 00:17:02,280 Speaker 1: Joe Biden was in charge. Charged Now, these cases included 256 00:17:02,360 --> 00:17:07,400 Speaker 1: crimes like sexual assault of a child, child molestation, sexual 257 00:17:07,440 --> 00:17:12,640 Speaker 1: exportation of minors, possession of child pornography, and now we've 258 00:17:12,680 --> 00:17:16,560 Speaker 1: gotten the newest numbers to add to that base. We 259 00:17:16,720 --> 00:17:21,960 Speaker 1: now know from ICE that four hundred and fourteen illegal 260 00:17:22,000 --> 00:17:26,600 Speaker 1: alien child sex offenders were arrested in the Houston area 261 00:17:26,760 --> 00:17:31,399 Speaker 1: alone during President Trump's first year in office. Why is 262 00:17:31,440 --> 00:17:34,840 Speaker 1: the media not telling you this story. This isn't nationwide, 263 00:17:34,880 --> 00:17:38,200 Speaker 1: This is in one city. The headline from the local 264 00:17:38,200 --> 00:17:41,960 Speaker 1: paper reads this way, more than four hundred criminal legal 265 00:17:42,000 --> 00:17:45,800 Speaker 1: aliens have been charged with or convicted of child sex 266 00:17:45,880 --> 00:17:49,440 Speaker 1: crimes have been arrested in Houston, Texas, and official stated 267 00:17:49,520 --> 00:17:53,040 Speaker 1: parents can sleep a little bit better knowing those individuals 268 00:17:53,040 --> 00:17:56,080 Speaker 1: are no longer a threat to their family. Now, these 269 00:17:56,080 --> 00:17:58,359 Speaker 1: are the same people the Democrats want you to feel 270 00:17:58,400 --> 00:18:02,679 Speaker 1: sorry for. ICE announced on Monday that the enforcement and 271 00:18:02,760 --> 00:18:06,440 Speaker 1: removal operations in Houston not only netted one hundred no weight, 272 00:18:06,560 --> 00:18:10,600 Speaker 1: I'm sorry the four hundred and fourteen illegals during President 273 00:18:10,640 --> 00:18:13,879 Speaker 1: Trump's first year back in office, but officials said the 274 00:18:13,960 --> 00:18:18,119 Speaker 1: number almost doubled that of predators arrested during the final 275 00:18:18,200 --> 00:18:23,080 Speaker 1: year of Joe Biden's administration. As a group, the arrested 276 00:18:23,160 --> 00:18:27,359 Speaker 1: criminal legal aliens accounted for seven hundred and sixty one 277 00:18:27,960 --> 00:18:32,840 Speaker 1: child sex offenses and five hundred and twenty five other 278 00:18:33,000 --> 00:18:38,080 Speaker 1: criminal offenses, ranging from homicide to robbery. The announcement states 279 00:18:38,680 --> 00:18:41,320 Speaker 1: ICE then listed some of the arrestees who came from 280 00:18:41,400 --> 00:18:46,280 Speaker 1: countries such as Honduras, Mexico, El Salvador, Columbia, and the 281 00:18:46,359 --> 00:18:50,720 Speaker 1: United Kingdom. Now these are the crimes that have been committed, 282 00:18:51,040 --> 00:18:55,159 Speaker 1: and some of them are absolutely heinous. Illegal aliens have 283 00:18:55,200 --> 00:18:58,640 Speaker 1: been accused of or convicted of committing crimes against children 284 00:18:58,680 --> 00:19:02,440 Speaker 1: in the United States of America at extremely young ages. 285 00:19:03,240 --> 00:19:06,439 Speaker 1: One report in January was that an illegal alien was 286 00:19:06,440 --> 00:19:09,400 Speaker 1: accused of raping a fourteen year old girl with autism 287 00:19:09,720 --> 00:19:13,240 Speaker 1: in the sanctuary state of California, for example. The following month, 288 00:19:13,280 --> 00:19:16,080 Speaker 1: an illegal alien fugitive was charged with possession of child 289 00:19:16,480 --> 00:19:22,000 Speaker 1: sexual abuse material commonly known as child pornography. In another case, 290 00:19:22,320 --> 00:19:26,479 Speaker 1: Texas Highway Patrolled troopers on horseback tracked and arrested an 291 00:19:26,520 --> 00:19:30,359 Speaker 1: illegal alien on a remote border ranch in Maverick County 292 00:19:30,560 --> 00:19:33,320 Speaker 1: on New Year's Day. The troopers closed it on their 293 00:19:33,359 --> 00:19:37,160 Speaker 1: target just outside of Eagle Pass, Texas, shortly before noon. 294 00:19:37,760 --> 00:19:41,520 Speaker 1: Troopers identified the man as a previously deported illegal alien, 295 00:19:41,960 --> 00:19:46,880 Speaker 1: a convicted sex offender with multiple convictions for child related 296 00:19:47,080 --> 00:19:51,560 Speaker 1: sexual crimes. ICE is also arrested one thousand, five hundred 297 00:19:51,560 --> 00:19:55,760 Speaker 1: and five illegal aliens in November, including gang members, child rapists, 298 00:19:55,760 --> 00:19:59,440 Speaker 1: and foreign fugitives. The outlet also reported, and there's also 299 00:19:59,560 --> 00:20:03,960 Speaker 1: yes more on the terrace watch lists now regarding the 300 00:20:03,960 --> 00:20:07,680 Speaker 1: four hundred and fourteen illegal aliens convicted of or charged 301 00:20:07,720 --> 00:20:10,880 Speaker 1: with child sex crimes who were caught in Houston alone, 302 00:20:11,280 --> 00:20:16,400 Speaker 1: ICE Enforcement Removal Operations acting field directors said this while 303 00:20:16,400 --> 00:20:20,440 Speaker 1: elected officials and media pundits across the country were zealously 304 00:20:20,520 --> 00:20:23,760 Speaker 1: trying to manipulate the American public with fake news stories 305 00:20:23,800 --> 00:20:27,359 Speaker 1: about ICE public safety missions, the brave men and women 306 00:20:27,359 --> 00:20:31,399 Speaker 1: of ICE were quietly going about their business to arrest 307 00:20:31,440 --> 00:20:35,560 Speaker 1: and remove more than four hundred dangerous child predators from 308 00:20:35,600 --> 00:20:39,800 Speaker 1: our local community in Houston. Thanks to their tireless efforts, 309 00:20:40,160 --> 00:20:42,960 Speaker 1: parents across Southeast Texas can sleep a little bit better 310 00:20:43,000 --> 00:20:46,560 Speaker 1: tonight knowing that these pedophiles and child rapists are no 311 00:20:46,640 --> 00:20:50,000 Speaker 1: longer a threat to their children. Which brings us back 312 00:20:50,040 --> 00:20:52,919 Speaker 1: to the big part of the conversation, why is the 313 00:20:52,960 --> 00:20:57,600 Speaker 1: media not covering this? And why is it that the media, 314 00:20:57,680 --> 00:21:00,720 Speaker 1: which is now obsessed with sleeper cells in in the country. 315 00:21:00,800 --> 00:21:04,480 Speaker 1: Even new warnings of possible attacks in California, for example, 316 00:21:04,920 --> 00:21:07,760 Speaker 1: by these sleeper cells. Why are they not telling you 317 00:21:08,000 --> 00:21:10,280 Speaker 1: about how many people on the terrorists watch lists have 318 00:21:10,320 --> 00:21:13,120 Speaker 1: been caught, how many of them came across the border 319 00:21:13,160 --> 00:21:16,639 Speaker 1: that we know are in this country illegally, and that 320 00:21:16,680 --> 00:21:19,600 Speaker 1: the Biden administration knew for a fact that the open 321 00:21:19,640 --> 00:21:24,800 Speaker 1: border policy was allowing for terrorists to come into America. 322 00:21:25,200 --> 00:21:27,240 Speaker 1: Many of them may be in the sleeper cells that 323 00:21:27,520 --> 00:21:31,280 Speaker 1: so many are now concerned about. This is exactly why 324 00:21:31,359 --> 00:21:33,480 Speaker 1: I wanted to spend the time talking to you about 325 00:21:33,520 --> 00:21:36,919 Speaker 1: it right now. Not only is the border a national 326 00:21:36,960 --> 00:21:40,560 Speaker 1: security issue, but it's also a national security issue not 327 00:21:40,600 --> 00:21:44,920 Speaker 1: just from a terrorism perspective, but from a child's safety perspective. 328 00:21:45,560 --> 00:21:48,439 Speaker 1: There are so many people that came across our border, 329 00:21:48,480 --> 00:21:52,880 Speaker 1: and the former administration and the Democratic Party knew that 330 00:21:52,920 --> 00:21:56,840 Speaker 1: there were really bad people that were coming across, and 331 00:21:56,920 --> 00:22:00,840 Speaker 1: they deliberately chose to allow those people across us while 332 00:22:00,880 --> 00:22:04,639 Speaker 1: flooding this country with tens of millions of illegal immigrants. 333 00:22:05,040 --> 00:22:07,639 Speaker 1: Why did they do it? Because they want to fundamentally 334 00:22:07,720 --> 00:22:10,560 Speaker 1: change this country. They want to change the fabric of 335 00:22:10,600 --> 00:22:13,399 Speaker 1: this country, the values of this country, just like we 336 00:22:13,480 --> 00:22:17,000 Speaker 1: are witnessing right now in Europe and other nations around 337 00:22:17,000 --> 00:22:20,320 Speaker 1: the world. That is the plan of the Democratic Party. 338 00:22:20,760 --> 00:22:22,920 Speaker 1: Now the president of the United States of America has 339 00:22:22,960 --> 00:22:26,560 Speaker 1: one thing that is really working to his advantage. There 340 00:22:26,640 --> 00:22:30,680 Speaker 1: is new CNN polling that is out right now that says, 341 00:22:30,760 --> 00:22:35,080 Speaker 1: today the Dems are pulling worse on immigration than they 342 00:22:35,119 --> 00:22:41,600 Speaker 1: did during Trump's first term in office. Which party do 343 00:22:41,640 --> 00:22:44,560 Speaker 1: you trust more on immigration? Take a listen to this 344 00:22:44,680 --> 00:22:46,400 Speaker 1: from CNN's own reporting. 345 00:22:46,560 --> 00:22:48,679 Speaker 2: I think it's so important to note, after all the 346 00:22:48,680 --> 00:22:51,480 Speaker 2: events in Los Angeles, after all the events in Minneapolis, 347 00:22:51,640 --> 00:22:54,240 Speaker 2: after all the events of the last year on immigration, 348 00:22:54,359 --> 00:22:57,879 Speaker 2: can Democrats actually take advantage on this issue? And a 349 00:22:57,920 --> 00:23:00,560 Speaker 2: look at the polling suggests actually not, They're in a 350 00:23:00,600 --> 00:23:03,640 Speaker 2: worse position, in a worse position than they were at 351 00:23:03,640 --> 00:23:06,040 Speaker 2: this point during Donald Trump's first term. Take a look here, 352 00:23:06,160 --> 00:23:09,600 Speaker 2: trust which party more in immigration? In twenty eighteen, Democrats 353 00:23:09,600 --> 00:23:11,680 Speaker 2: had an edge of about six points. You come over 354 00:23:11,680 --> 00:23:13,640 Speaker 2: to this side of the screen, now look at that 355 00:23:13,720 --> 00:23:16,080 Speaker 2: Republicans are the ones who have actually have an edge 356 00:23:16,119 --> 00:23:18,800 Speaker 2: on immigration. So this whole idea that Democrats are going 357 00:23:18,840 --> 00:23:22,960 Speaker 2: to be able to take advantage of the immigration group 358 00:23:23,480 --> 00:23:26,919 Speaker 2: of the immigration issue actually doesn't bear itself out in 359 00:23:27,000 --> 00:23:29,720 Speaker 2: the polling despite everything that's been going on. In fact, 360 00:23:29,760 --> 00:23:32,119 Speaker 2: Democrats are a worse position than they were during Donald 361 00:23:32,119 --> 00:23:34,600 Speaker 2: Trump's first term. Yeah, maybe they don't like what Donald 362 00:23:34,600 --> 00:23:37,000 Speaker 2: Trump the president is doing, but they don't think Democrats 363 00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:39,120 Speaker 2: will do a better job. Correct, They think Democrats will 364 00:23:39,160 --> 00:23:41,560 Speaker 2: do a worse job on immigration them Republican? All right, 365 00:23:41,560 --> 00:23:44,640 Speaker 2: what about border security in general? Okay, border security in general? 366 00:23:44,760 --> 00:23:47,320 Speaker 2: So this is immigration at large? What about border security? 367 00:23:47,320 --> 00:23:50,399 Speaker 2: Look at this? Look at these numbers. Hello, party trusted 368 00:23:50,440 --> 00:23:52,879 Speaker 2: more on border security again at this point Trump's terms. 369 00:23:53,000 --> 00:23:53,359 Speaker 3: Look at this. 370 00:23:53,440 --> 00:23:56,840 Speaker 2: In twenty eighteen, Republicans at a thirteen point advantage. If anything, 371 00:23:56,880 --> 00:23:59,720 Speaker 2: the advantage is a little bit larger now, Republicans up 372 00:23:59,720 --> 00:24:02,240 Speaker 2: by fifteen points. So when you put it all together, 373 00:24:02,280 --> 00:24:04,840 Speaker 2: you put immigration with border security and the idea that 374 00:24:04,880 --> 00:24:06,479 Speaker 2: Democrats will be able to take the ball and run 375 00:24:06,560 --> 00:24:10,080 Speaker 2: away on it, the polling data suggests no, no, no, 376 00:24:10,240 --> 00:24:13,040 Speaker 2: this is actually an issue that Republicans should be more 377 00:24:13,080 --> 00:24:16,440 Speaker 2: comfortable running on than Democrats. Democrats run on immigration may 378 00:24:16,480 --> 00:24:18,280 Speaker 2: actually be to the Republicans advantage. 379 00:24:18,400 --> 00:24:22,040 Speaker 1: What so you listen to CNNs on reporting now and 380 00:24:22,119 --> 00:24:25,159 Speaker 1: now you realize that the Dems are pulling worse on 381 00:24:25,200 --> 00:24:29,040 Speaker 1: immigration than they did during Trump's first term. Why is 382 00:24:29,080 --> 00:24:34,920 Speaker 1: that because of this? Nationwide immigration officials say roughly seventy 383 00:24:35,040 --> 00:24:39,800 Speaker 1: percent of all ICE arrests now involve illegal immigrants who 384 00:24:39,880 --> 00:24:42,840 Speaker 1: have already committed crimes in the United States of America. 385 00:24:43,400 --> 00:24:46,280 Speaker 1: That means the focus of these operations is very clear. 386 00:24:47,000 --> 00:24:51,040 Speaker 1: They are literally removing the most dangerous offenders first. And 387 00:24:51,040 --> 00:24:54,240 Speaker 1: when you look at the broader enforcement picture under President Trump, 388 00:24:54,560 --> 00:24:58,040 Speaker 1: the scale of the crackdown becomes even clear. Federal authorities 389 00:24:58,040 --> 00:25:04,000 Speaker 1: say immigration enforcement teams are now targeting violent offenders, gang members, terrorists, 390 00:25:04,440 --> 00:25:09,879 Speaker 1: repeat border crossers, human traffickers, sex traffickers, and child predators, 391 00:25:10,359 --> 00:25:13,119 Speaker 1: all part of what the DHS calls a strategy to 392 00:25:13,160 --> 00:25:16,719 Speaker 1: remove the worst of the worst. So even as Democrats 393 00:25:16,760 --> 00:25:20,639 Speaker 1: claim that the Republicans and Trump and law enforcement just 394 00:25:20,720 --> 00:25:24,640 Speaker 1: rounding up random sweet people, that is a lie. More 395 00:25:24,680 --> 00:25:29,440 Speaker 1: than seventy percent of ICE arrests now involve illegal immigrants 396 00:25:29,480 --> 00:25:34,160 Speaker 1: who have already committed crimes in the United States of America. 397 00:25:34,720 --> 00:25:38,440 Speaker 1: President Trump campaigned on restoring law and order at the border, 398 00:25:38,840 --> 00:25:42,840 Speaker 1: and according to federal law enforcement statistics, tens of thousands 399 00:25:42,840 --> 00:25:47,120 Speaker 1: of arrests later, including hundreds of predators targeting children and 400 00:25:47,560 --> 00:25:51,280 Speaker 1: people on the terrorists watch lists. The Trump administration says 401 00:25:51,800 --> 00:25:56,160 Speaker 1: that promise is now becoming a reality. Having just come 402 00:25:56,200 --> 00:25:58,520 Speaker 1: back from Israel, I want to paint you a picture. 403 00:25:58,760 --> 00:26:03,359 Speaker 1: It's midnights are blearing, and you have only seconds to 404 00:26:03,480 --> 00:26:07,960 Speaker 1: grab your child and run. Now imagine your elderly. Your 405 00:26:08,040 --> 00:26:11,800 Speaker 1: legs don't work like they used to, getting downstairs feels impossible, 406 00:26:12,200 --> 00:26:13,960 Speaker 1: and after all of that, you end up in a 407 00:26:14,000 --> 00:26:17,960 Speaker 1: bomb shelter for hours, even days, because you can't make 408 00:26:18,040 --> 00:26:22,240 Speaker 1: the trek again. This is what's happening across Israel as 409 00:26:22,280 --> 00:26:27,760 Speaker 1: Operation Epic Fury continues. Children are being traumatized, families are 410 00:26:27,800 --> 00:26:31,680 Speaker 1: just exhausted, and homes have been destroyed. And that's why 411 00:26:31,720 --> 00:26:35,640 Speaker 1: the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews is there on 412 00:26:35,680 --> 00:26:40,120 Speaker 1: the ground, bringing food, emergency equipment, care for those children, 413 00:26:40,400 --> 00:26:44,200 Speaker 1: and help for the elderly, and supplying the bomb shelters 414 00:26:44,240 --> 00:26:46,960 Speaker 1: and medical centers for critically needed essentials. 415 00:26:47,400 --> 00:26:48,480 Speaker 3: If you've ever. 416 00:26:48,320 --> 00:26:50,760 Speaker 1: Wondered what it looks like to stand for Israel and 417 00:26:50,840 --> 00:26:54,160 Speaker 1: stand for good against evil, this is it. And that's 418 00:26:54,200 --> 00:26:57,280 Speaker 1: why I'm asking to now please act give forty five 419 00:26:57,400 --> 00:27:00,920 Speaker 1: dollars right now to rush life, save essentials to the 420 00:27:01,000 --> 00:27:05,160 Speaker 1: vulnerables under fire. You can also call eight to eight 421 00:27:05,680 --> 00:27:10,520 Speaker 1: for eight eight IFCJ. That's eight eight eight for eight 422 00:27:10,520 --> 00:27:14,160 Speaker 1: eight IFCJ. Join me and give and make a real 423 00:27:14,240 --> 00:27:18,160 Speaker 1: difference online at IFCJ dot org. 424 00:27:18,240 --> 00:27:20,160 Speaker 3: That's IFCJ dot org. 425 00:27:21,080 --> 00:27:23,879 Speaker 1: Democrats, we are now learning are looking not only to 426 00:27:23,960 --> 00:27:28,960 Speaker 1: dismantle ICE, but also the entire Department of Homeland Security. 427 00:27:29,760 --> 00:27:34,439 Speaker 1: Remarks now coming from Representative lam Omar signal that the 428 00:27:34,560 --> 00:27:40,119 Speaker 1: National Democrats as a party are pursuing sweeping changes that 429 00:27:40,200 --> 00:27:45,280 Speaker 1: extend far beyond their calls to quote abolish ICE. During 430 00:27:45,320 --> 00:27:49,080 Speaker 1: a town hall, Omar said, Democrats are not only discussing 431 00:27:49,119 --> 00:27:53,639 Speaker 1: eliminating immigration and customs enforcement, but are also engaged in 432 00:27:53,720 --> 00:27:59,359 Speaker 1: conversations about dismantling the Department of Homeland Security altogether. Quote. 433 00:27:59,640 --> 00:28:02,720 Speaker 1: What I will say is that there is an easier 434 00:28:02,840 --> 00:28:06,840 Speaker 1: conversation happening today than six seven years ago when I 435 00:28:06,880 --> 00:28:10,080 Speaker 1: got to Congress about what we need to do with ICE, 436 00:28:10,280 --> 00:28:14,880 Speaker 1: which is to abolish it, Omar told attendees in Golden Valley, Minnesota. 437 00:28:15,640 --> 00:28:19,119 Speaker 1: She added, there's a lot of conversation about what the 438 00:28:19,240 --> 00:28:23,560 Speaker 1: dismantlement of the Department of Homeland Security should look like now. 439 00:28:23,560 --> 00:28:28,359 Speaker 1: Omar's remarks come as Democrats continue to protests federal immigration 440 00:28:28,560 --> 00:28:33,480 Speaker 1: enforcement operations directed under President Donald Trump. ICE, which was 441 00:28:33,600 --> 00:28:37,240 Speaker 1: established in two thousand and three under the DHS, has 442 00:28:37,359 --> 00:28:42,480 Speaker 1: carried out immigration enforcement actions for more than two decades. Now, 443 00:28:42,560 --> 00:28:46,840 Speaker 1: Thursday mark the sixth day of a federal shutdown forced 444 00:28:46,920 --> 00:28:51,480 Speaker 1: by Congressional Democrats over their new demands to get rid 445 00:28:51,520 --> 00:28:53,720 Speaker 1: of ICE, or, at the bare minimum, as they describe it, 446 00:28:53,920 --> 00:28:56,680 Speaker 1: reform it, which actually means shut it down. 447 00:28:57,320 --> 00:28:57,520 Speaker 3: Now. 448 00:28:57,560 --> 00:29:01,560 Speaker 1: Democrats are pushing for, they say, a series of major 449 00:29:01,680 --> 00:29:04,240 Speaker 1: new restrictions on ICE operations. 450 00:29:05,040 --> 00:29:06,120 Speaker 3: What does that include? 451 00:29:06,680 --> 00:29:12,600 Speaker 1: Banning agents from wearing face masks and requiring judicial warrants 452 00:29:12,680 --> 00:29:17,200 Speaker 1: before making any arrests at all. They are also calling 453 00:29:17,400 --> 00:29:21,400 Speaker 1: for a mandate that ICE agents wear body cameras, something 454 00:29:21,400 --> 00:29:24,720 Speaker 1: the Trump administration is already moving towards, but of course 455 00:29:24,760 --> 00:29:28,400 Speaker 1: they want to seem like there's fake outrage. In fact, 456 00:29:28,560 --> 00:29:31,920 Speaker 1: ICE agents have been requesting the body cameras to prove 457 00:29:32,240 --> 00:29:35,520 Speaker 1: their innocence in many of the accusations that are coming 458 00:29:35,520 --> 00:29:39,800 Speaker 1: from the radical left now. In addition, Democrats are seeking 459 00:29:39,800 --> 00:29:44,400 Speaker 1: to prohibit immigration enforcement actions at what they describe as 460 00:29:44,840 --> 00:29:49,680 Speaker 1: sensitive locations, meaning they'll become safe havens for actual criminals. 461 00:29:50,320 --> 00:29:56,000 Speaker 1: What are these places? Hospitals, schools, and polling sites? Just 462 00:29:56,080 --> 00:29:59,960 Speaker 1: so you know, with American individuals that have broken law 463 00:30:00,120 --> 00:30:03,400 Speaker 1: use as an American citizen, you can be arrested right 464 00:30:03,400 --> 00:30:05,840 Speaker 1: now at a hospital, or a school, or at a 465 00:30:05,880 --> 00:30:09,320 Speaker 1: polling site. So why would we give special care to 466 00:30:09,360 --> 00:30:13,800 Speaker 1: illegal immigrants? Is the question every American should be asking now. 467 00:30:13,880 --> 00:30:16,880 Speaker 1: One on the side point about the insanity of them 468 00:30:16,960 --> 00:30:21,400 Speaker 1: saying that you can't arrest illegal immigrants at polling sites. Republicans, 469 00:30:21,560 --> 00:30:24,480 Speaker 1: they're laughing at that, noting that non citizens, by the way, 470 00:30:24,520 --> 00:30:28,840 Speaker 1: are literally prohibited from voting in US elections under federal law. 471 00:30:29,320 --> 00:30:32,440 Speaker 1: So why are Democrats so angry and wanting to demand 472 00:30:32,520 --> 00:30:37,840 Speaker 1: that our laws would make it impossible for law enforcement too, 473 00:30:38,440 --> 00:30:43,880 Speaker 1: You guessed it, arrest illegal immigrants at polling sites. Is 474 00:30:43,920 --> 00:30:45,960 Speaker 1: it because they want them to vote? Or know that 475 00:30:46,040 --> 00:30:49,160 Speaker 1: some of them already are voting right now now. In 476 00:30:49,200 --> 00:30:54,320 Speaker 1: recent weeks, several Democratic leaders have strongly condemned ICE operations, 477 00:30:54,760 --> 00:30:58,560 Speaker 1: including Minnesota Governor Tim Waltz, a Democratic lost to twenty 478 00:30:58,600 --> 00:31:01,719 Speaker 1: twenty four election to Trump. And Vice President Jady Vance. 479 00:31:02,120 --> 00:31:06,240 Speaker 1: He now warned that federal enforcement efforts could expand nationwide, 480 00:31:06,720 --> 00:31:10,520 Speaker 1: therefore we must defund them. He also had this warning 481 00:31:10,560 --> 00:31:15,400 Speaker 1: to America, quote to Americans who are watching this, if 482 00:31:15,440 --> 00:31:19,200 Speaker 1: you're in Portland, or you're in la or you're in Chicago, 483 00:31:19,840 --> 00:31:24,440 Speaker 1: or you're wherever they're coming next. Now, to be clear 484 00:31:24,960 --> 00:31:27,720 Speaker 1: for me, that's a good thing if we're sending law 485 00:31:27,800 --> 00:31:31,719 Speaker 1: enforcement to clean up cities that are filled with tons 486 00:31:31,920 --> 00:31:35,600 Speaker 1: of criminals. Yet again the Democrats showing whose side they're 487 00:31:35,640 --> 00:31:40,440 Speaker 1: actually on now. Republicans have urged that ICE enforcement actions 488 00:31:40,720 --> 00:31:44,040 Speaker 1: are not only lawful operations carried out by federal authorities, 489 00:31:44,440 --> 00:31:47,920 Speaker 1: but they are needed to protect American citizens, and the 490 00:31:47,960 --> 00:31:51,560 Speaker 1: crime statistics have shown where ICE agents have been out 491 00:31:51,600 --> 00:31:56,520 Speaker 1: in major enforcement actions, we've seen the crimes drastically drop 492 00:31:56,560 --> 00:32:00,320 Speaker 1: in those areas. Of course, critics of Democratic propose will 493 00:32:00,360 --> 00:32:04,800 Speaker 1: say dismantling ICE, or DHS more broadly, would significantly not 494 00:32:04,840 --> 00:32:07,960 Speaker 1: only reshape national security of the home land, but it 495 00:32:07,960 --> 00:32:11,800 Speaker 1: would allow for criminals to run a mock DHS. By 496 00:32:11,800 --> 00:32:16,240 Speaker 1: the way, overseas, twenty two agencies focusing on national security 497 00:32:16,280 --> 00:32:21,080 Speaker 1: and public safety. Major components include Customs and Border Protection 498 00:32:21,440 --> 00:32:24,840 Speaker 1: known as CBP. If you get rid of Homeland Security, 499 00:32:25,080 --> 00:32:27,400 Speaker 1: you would get rid of that. You'd also get rid 500 00:32:27,440 --> 00:32:32,160 Speaker 1: of obviously, immigration Customers Enforcement, ICE agents, and the TSA. 501 00:32:32,600 --> 00:32:35,160 Speaker 1: So yes, Democrats want to shut down the same people 502 00:32:35,200 --> 00:32:38,560 Speaker 1: that keep you safe when flying on airplanes. They also 503 00:32:38,600 --> 00:32:41,000 Speaker 1: want to get rid of FEMA. That is also yet 504 00:32:41,040 --> 00:32:44,400 Speaker 1: again under the Department of Homeland Security. So the next 505 00:32:44,440 --> 00:32:48,000 Speaker 1: time there's a national disaster, guess what, Yeah, no one 506 00:32:48,000 --> 00:32:49,520 Speaker 1: from the federal government would be there to help you 507 00:32:49,600 --> 00:32:52,360 Speaker 1: if the Democrats get their way. Oh and if you're 508 00:32:52,440 --> 00:32:55,440 Speaker 1: at c or you're a drug dealer, or maybe some 509 00:32:55,560 --> 00:32:59,200 Speaker 1: other country that's looking to do harm, don't worry. Democrats 510 00:32:59,240 --> 00:33:02,120 Speaker 1: also say yeah, that includes the US Coast Guard. 511 00:33:02,360 --> 00:33:03,000 Speaker 3: So if you're. 512 00:33:02,880 --> 00:33:06,280 Speaker 1: Sinking on a boat, tough luck for you. Democrats say 513 00:33:06,320 --> 00:33:09,880 Speaker 1: no more. And if you are caring about our president 514 00:33:10,000 --> 00:33:13,680 Speaker 1: and others around him and other cabinet members, well you 515 00:33:13,680 --> 00:33:17,160 Speaker 1: would like the Secret Service protection. If Democrats get their 516 00:33:17,200 --> 00:33:20,320 Speaker 1: way shutting down the Department of Homeland Security, that would 517 00:33:20,360 --> 00:33:23,640 Speaker 1: include the Secret Service. And finally, maybe this is what 518 00:33:23,680 --> 00:33:27,760 Speaker 1: it's really all about for them, US Citizenship and Immigration 519 00:33:28,080 --> 00:33:30,440 Speaker 1: Services under the USCIS. 520 00:33:30,680 --> 00:33:32,400 Speaker 3: Yes, you've probably dealt with them. 521 00:33:32,720 --> 00:33:35,080 Speaker 1: If you've ever had to get a passport or other 522 00:33:35,160 --> 00:33:39,680 Speaker 1: things like that, well, Democrats also apparently say yeah, let's 523 00:33:39,720 --> 00:33:42,160 Speaker 1: get rid of that as well. So to be clear, 524 00:33:42,320 --> 00:33:46,720 Speaker 1: in the midterm elections, Democrats are saying exactly what they believe. 525 00:33:47,240 --> 00:33:50,640 Speaker 1: They hate this country. They hate secure borders, they hate 526 00:33:50,720 --> 00:33:53,800 Speaker 1: law and order, they hate FEMA, they hate the Coast Guard, 527 00:33:53,840 --> 00:33:56,680 Speaker 1: they hate the Secret Service, and they hate the people 528 00:33:56,680 --> 00:34:00,120 Speaker 1: to help US citizens and immigration services as well, and 529 00:34:00,160 --> 00:34:03,000 Speaker 1: they want to abolish all of it just because they 530 00:34:03,040 --> 00:34:06,960 Speaker 1: don't like ice actions. This is what the midterms are 531 00:34:06,960 --> 00:34:09,000 Speaker 1: going to be about. And thank goodness, Donald Trump has 532 00:34:09,040 --> 00:34:12,080 Speaker 1: made it clear as he had a campaign rally for 533 00:34:12,160 --> 00:34:17,719 Speaker 1: the midterms, we must continue to fight back against this anarchy. Now, 534 00:34:17,840 --> 00:34:19,799 Speaker 1: all the data that I just gave you, I'm going 535 00:34:19,840 --> 00:34:22,239 Speaker 1: to ask you to share it on social media. I'm 536 00:34:22,239 --> 00:34:24,080 Speaker 1: going to ask to share it with your family and 537 00:34:24,120 --> 00:34:27,440 Speaker 1: your friends.
