This happened meeting with the president 13 00:00:36,000 --> 00:00:40,520 Speaker 2: of Brazil. The first story is that he was totally confused. 14 00:00:40,760 --> 00:00:42,600 Speaker 2: He was supposed to put on a little headset so 15 00:00:42,640 --> 00:00:45,000 Speaker 2: he could hear what the Brazilian president was saying and 16 00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:48,360 Speaker 2: the interpreter, and he was having trouble with it, so 17 00:00:48,400 --> 00:00:50,360 Speaker 2: he kept trying to adjust it and pulled it off 18 00:00:50,400 --> 00:00:53,600 Speaker 2: and stuff, And apparently the Brazilian president actually looked at 19 00:00:53,680 --> 00:00:55,920 Speaker 2: him and said, can you hear me, President Biden? 20 00:00:56,480 --> 00:00:58,360 Speaker 1: Can you hear me? President Biden? Can you hear me? 21 00:00:58,920 --> 00:01:03,320 Speaker 2: And eventually Biden to He nods kind of. He continues 22 00:01:03,320 --> 00:01:05,440 Speaker 2: to fumble to the headset. 23 00:01:05,080 --> 00:01:07,319 Speaker 1: And then he drops it. He drops it and he 24 00:01:07,400 --> 00:01:09,840 Speaker 1: raises his eyebrows in frustration. This is like a little 25 00:01:10,360 --> 00:01:14,399 Speaker 1: on stage comedy, right, you know, Biden's like a bad mime. 26 00:01:14,800 --> 00:01:18,520 Speaker 1: He's just like so at the end, he shakes hands 27 00:01:19,160 --> 00:01:21,760 Speaker 1: with some labor leader, right, and. 28 00:01:22,440 --> 00:01:25,000 Speaker 2: He turns and wanders off as the Brazilian president has 29 00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:28,240 Speaker 2: got his hand out waiting, Biden goes in the other direction, 30 00:01:28,319 --> 00:01:29,880 Speaker 2: as he often does. He just kind of tries to 31 00:01:29,920 --> 00:01:31,800 Speaker 2: wander off stage where he doesn't know where he's going, 32 00:01:32,280 --> 00:01:35,279 Speaker 2: and he literally shuffles. If you look at the video, yeah, 33 00:01:35,360 --> 00:01:39,280 Speaker 2: he is literally shuffling. The feet don't really come off 34 00:01:39,319 --> 00:01:41,120 Speaker 2: the ground, they're just kind of against the carpet. 35 00:01:41,319 --> 00:01:44,679 Speaker 1: The Brazilian president is stuck with his hand out, you 36 00:01:44,720 --> 00:01:47,039 Speaker 1: know how awkward that is, and he's standing on stage. 37 00:01:47,040 --> 00:01:48,760 Speaker 1: He felt like he got this and then he just 38 00:01:48,800 --> 00:01:53,320 Speaker 1: like waved with it anger like swiping gesture. It says, 39 00:01:54,680 --> 00:01:56,760 Speaker 1: I watched that part of the video and he just 40 00:01:56,760 --> 00:01:59,000 Speaker 1: like waved it in the air like okay, all right, 41 00:02:00,400 --> 00:02:01,200 Speaker 1: the old fool. 42 00:02:01,640 --> 00:02:03,640 Speaker 2: I don't think it was a purposeful snub. I think 43 00:02:03,640 --> 00:02:06,200 Speaker 2: it was just old Joe like, I'm done here, good? 44 00:02:06,280 --> 00:02:08,160 Speaker 2: How do you get off? I don't go very fast 45 00:02:08,919 --> 00:02:12,680 Speaker 2: and then drop it all off. He walks into a flag, 46 00:02:12,960 --> 00:02:15,200 Speaker 2: a large Brazilian flag, seven feet tall. 47 00:02:19,960 --> 00:02:23,560 Speaker 1: You couldn't write this stuff. He is so out of it. 48 00:02:24,919 --> 00:02:25,919 Speaker 1: He was not a long trip. 49 00:02:25,960 --> 00:02:28,040 Speaker 2: What from Washington, d C. To New York City. It's 50 00:02:28,040 --> 00:02:30,000 Speaker 2: not like he's going very far and has jetlike. 51 00:02:30,120 --> 00:02:34,360 Speaker 1: No, it's the dementia. That's what dementia patients do. Is 52 00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:37,720 Speaker 1: this past his time like two o'clock or something like? 53 00:02:37,760 --> 00:02:40,280 Speaker 1: He isn't This is all he's got left in his head. 54 00:02:42,760 --> 00:02:47,960 Speaker 1: He's dementia patients get really confused. So as he's walking, 55 00:02:48,560 --> 00:02:51,639 Speaker 1: he doesn't really know where he's supposed to go, and 56 00:02:51,680 --> 00:02:53,880 Speaker 1: so he walks in the flag. He's fumbling with the 57 00:02:53,919 --> 00:02:55,440 Speaker 1: head set. He doesn't know what to do with it. 58 00:02:55,960 --> 00:02:58,480 Speaker 1: He doesn't remember that you're supposed to turn and shake 59 00:02:58,560 --> 00:03:01,959 Speaker 1: hands with the guy on your left. It just is 60 00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:05,440 Speaker 1: his mind is all scrambled, it's foggy. Well, I don't 61 00:03:05,480 --> 00:03:06,520 Speaker 1: know what this is going to sound like. 62 00:03:06,639 --> 00:03:09,959 Speaker 2: We have thirteen seconds of what we just described that 63 00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:25,600 Speaker 2: happened yesterday at the UN that's it was Biden walking 64 00:03:25,639 --> 00:03:29,960 Speaker 2: off stage and leaving the Brazilian president hanging. Now, the 65 00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:33,480 Speaker 2: other story that's making the news also happened yesterday. So 66 00:03:33,520 --> 00:03:36,920 Speaker 2: he goes to a fundraiser, and this is a real 67 00:03:37,040 --> 00:03:40,600 Speaker 2: estate heiress was hosting this fundraiser for Biden. So he 68 00:03:40,760 --> 00:03:44,720 Speaker 2: told the group why he ran for president in twenty twenty, 69 00:03:44,960 --> 00:03:47,400 Speaker 2: and he said it was because of Trump's response to 70 00:03:47,440 --> 00:03:50,760 Speaker 2: the white supremacist rally that was held in Charlottesville, Virginia. 71 00:03:50,840 --> 00:03:53,800 Speaker 2: Remember that story from a few years back, according to 72 00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:55,800 Speaker 2: a number of people who attended, and even the White 73 00:03:55,840 --> 00:03:59,720 Speaker 2: House media pool report. A couple of minutes later, Biden 74 00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:02,240 Speaker 2: repeated the same exact story word for word. 75 00:04:02,960 --> 00:04:06,360 Speaker 1: Here here's his exact quote. This is Biden talking. You 76 00:04:06,400 --> 00:04:09,560 Speaker 1: remember those folks walking out of the fields, literally carrying 77 00:04:09,600 --> 00:04:13,560 Speaker 1: torches with Nazi swastikas holding them forward, singing the same 78 00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:17,080 Speaker 1: vicious anti Semitic bile, the same exact bile bile that 79 00:04:17,200 --> 00:04:19,800 Speaker 1: was sung in Germany in the early thirties, and a 80 00:04:19,839 --> 00:04:22,960 Speaker 1: young woman was killed. A young woman was killed. And 81 00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:26,599 Speaker 1: then he went on to talk about Trump, saying that 82 00:04:26,640 --> 00:04:29,520 Speaker 1: there were good people on both sides, and how people 83 00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:32,080 Speaker 1: and his family were urging him to run. And then 84 00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:35,640 Speaker 1: here's the second part. You know, you may remember that 85 00:04:35,760 --> 00:04:38,040 Speaker 1: you know those folks from Charlottesville as they came out 86 00:04:38,040 --> 00:04:41,080 Speaker 1: of the fields and carrying those swastikas, and remember the 87 00:04:41,080 --> 00:04:44,520 Speaker 1: ones with the torches and the coup accompanied by the 88 00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:47,160 Speaker 1: ku Klux Klan, and in addition they had there were 89 00:04:47,160 --> 00:04:49,800 Speaker 1: white supremacists. Anyway, they were making a big case about 90 00:04:49,839 --> 00:04:52,279 Speaker 1: how terrible this was and a young woman was killed 91 00:04:52,279 --> 00:04:57,719 Speaker 1: in the process. Same story, is this yeah? Did he was? 92 00:04:57,760 --> 00:04:59,760 Speaker 2: He looking at it teleprompter and he just went back 93 00:04:59,760 --> 00:05:04,040 Speaker 2: to the the same spot so one night and says here, 94 00:05:04,080 --> 00:05:08,840 Speaker 2: pre had prepared notes, not necessarily a telepromom, but he's 95 00:05:08,880 --> 00:05:10,520 Speaker 2: obviously can't focus. 96 00:05:10,400 --> 00:05:11,919 Speaker 1: Is it like you? And you don't turn the page 97 00:05:11,920 --> 00:05:14,640 Speaker 1: for the next commercial that we're doing the next I 98 00:05:14,960 --> 00:05:17,560 Speaker 1: probably got an early stage on set, and you go 99 00:05:17,560 --> 00:05:21,160 Speaker 1: back and read the same ad ten minutes earlier. So, unfortunately, 100 00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:25,880 Speaker 1: in the final months of my mother in law's life, 101 00:05:26,720 --> 00:05:30,440 Speaker 1: she spent some time with us here in La And 102 00:05:30,480 --> 00:05:34,240 Speaker 1: there was one night on a Saturday night, and it 103 00:05:34,279 --> 00:05:37,719 Speaker 1: was a summer, so everybody was home and my wife 104 00:05:37,760 --> 00:05:39,800 Speaker 1: was cooking and I was sitting at the kitchen table 105 00:05:40,120 --> 00:05:43,039 Speaker 1: talking to her mom, and her mom went into a 106 00:05:43,279 --> 00:05:48,440 Speaker 1: very detailed story from the nineteen forties about her brother 107 00:05:49,279 --> 00:05:52,640 Speaker 1: Tom and the baseball games he used to listen to. 108 00:05:53,080 --> 00:05:56,320 Speaker 1: He was a big Yankees fan back east, and so 109 00:05:56,800 --> 00:05:58,280 Speaker 1: there was a whole story to it, and it was 110 00:05:58,400 --> 00:06:01,320 Speaker 1: very detailed, and it was a really warm memory of 111 00:06:01,360 --> 00:06:04,479 Speaker 1: hers and I said, oh, that's that's really nice. And 112 00:06:04,520 --> 00:06:07,440 Speaker 1: then she started and told the exact same story word 113 00:06:07,640 --> 00:06:10,080 Speaker 1: for word, and this is like, you know, a two 114 00:06:10,120 --> 00:06:13,720 Speaker 1: minute story. And then she did it a third time. Now, 115 00:06:13,800 --> 00:06:16,280 Speaker 1: fourth time? Wait, actually, all in a row? Is there 116 00:06:16,279 --> 00:06:19,640 Speaker 1: a pause of something else? All in a row? And 117 00:06:19,760 --> 00:06:24,360 Speaker 1: a fifth time and a sixth time. I'm not exaggerating. 118 00:06:24,800 --> 00:06:27,400 Speaker 1: And I just sat there listening because I'd never seen 119 00:06:27,440 --> 00:06:31,520 Speaker 1: this before, and I thought, I wondered how long this 120 00:06:31,680 --> 00:06:34,840 Speaker 1: was going to go on. And finally, after six times 121 00:06:34,920 --> 00:06:38,240 Speaker 1: telling the same detailed story from the nineteen forties, finally 122 00:06:38,360 --> 00:06:42,359 Speaker 1: you know, something broke and and yeah, she had a 123 00:06:42,360 --> 00:06:44,919 Speaker 1: lot of other symptoms. But that's why I see. 124 00:06:44,880 --> 00:06:47,200 Speaker 2: That could be triggered by bad short term memory, where 125 00:06:47,200 --> 00:06:49,000 Speaker 2: you don't even remember what you just said because your 126 00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:52,400 Speaker 2: short term memory shot right, but your brain's saying this 127 00:06:52,440 --> 00:06:54,039 Speaker 2: is a good story, Tell it, right, and then you 128 00:06:54,120 --> 00:06:56,320 Speaker 2: forgot you tell it, and then short term memory erases it, 129 00:06:56,360 --> 00:06:58,040 Speaker 2: and then your brain says, this is a good story. 130 00:06:58,040 --> 00:07:01,680 Speaker 1: Tell it. Remember Dianne Feinstein thing. Oh yeah, we had 131 00:07:01,680 --> 00:07:04,159 Speaker 1: a clip of her. She was acting exactly the same 132 00:07:04,240 --> 00:07:08,520 Speaker 1: detailed question twice in a row to some witness at 133 00:07:08,520 --> 00:07:09,200 Speaker 1: a Senate hearing. 134 00:07:09,680 --> 00:07:13,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, I imagine this is going to happen as people 135 00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:17,160 Speaker 2: live longer but don't necessarily have their brains in shape. 136 00:07:17,320 --> 00:07:19,480 Speaker 2: We're going to see more of this, particularly in public life. 137 00:07:19,520 --> 00:07:22,680 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, like like Pelosi's decided to run for another term. 138 00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:26,360 Speaker 2: Good lord to what that's like. But we well, you see, 139 00:07:26,360 --> 00:07:28,680 Speaker 2: we've have been people that want to continue in jobs 140 00:07:28,680 --> 00:07:30,280 Speaker 2: in public life seventies eighties. 141 00:07:30,680 --> 00:07:33,760 Speaker 1: We've never seen people in public life live this long 142 00:07:33,920 --> 00:07:35,160 Speaker 1: in such a decayed state. 143 00:07:36,080 --> 00:07:39,360 Speaker 2: No, we always cite strom Thurman, who lived almost one 144 00:07:39,400 --> 00:07:41,320 Speaker 2: hundred and he continued to serve in the Senate, but 145 00:07:41,360 --> 00:07:42,680 Speaker 2: he obviously had bad dementia. 146 00:07:42,800 --> 00:07:44,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, but he's the only one I can think of 147 00:07:44,120 --> 00:07:45,600 Speaker 1: in the past thirty years. It was really in this 148 00:07:45,680 --> 00:07:48,680 Speaker 1: kind of category. Yeah, and they kept him largely hidden, 149 00:07:49,800 --> 00:07:53,240 Speaker 1: they did in the latter years. Yeah, they did it's 150 00:07:53,280 --> 00:07:57,920 Speaker 1: just a gets older. Biden's persistence here. I've never seen 151 00:07:57,920 --> 00:08:00,800 Speaker 1: this before. And even even Feinstein, well, he's got the 152 00:08:00,840 --> 00:08:02,960 Speaker 1: most public job of all I mean, Feinstein, you can 153 00:08:03,200 --> 00:08:06,080 Speaker 1: you can hide a bit because as a senator there 154 00:08:06,160 --> 00:08:08,480 Speaker 1: might be a couple of media guys poking around, but 155 00:08:08,560 --> 00:08:11,200 Speaker 1: the president, the media in the world was have access 156 00:08:11,200 --> 00:08:13,960 Speaker 1: to him every day. Here's thousands and thousands of people 157 00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:16,520 Speaker 1: like this. But they're at home, you know, and they 158 00:08:16,520 --> 00:08:19,600 Speaker 1: got their families or were their nursing attendants taking care 159 00:08:19,640 --> 00:08:21,400 Speaker 1: of them, and they're sitting there and they're repeating the 160 00:08:21,400 --> 00:08:24,160 Speaker 1: same thing over and over again, and everybody's nodding along 161 00:08:24,200 --> 00:08:28,560 Speaker 1: trying to be nice. Well, you said he wouldn't make 162 00:08:28,560 --> 00:08:31,040 Speaker 1: it through the first term, either one way or the other. Right, 163 00:08:31,120 --> 00:08:33,200 Speaker 1: it's what you declared back in twenty twenty. Don't think 164 00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:36,199 Speaker 1: the odds are on my side for that, right. We 165 00:08:36,320 --> 00:08:39,760 Speaker 1: got more coming up, Oh after one thirty. We've been 166 00:08:39,760 --> 00:08:43,240 Speaker 1: telling you the border is incredibly overrun again as much 167 00:08:43,280 --> 00:08:45,720 Speaker 1: as it was last year before all the media coverage 168 00:08:45,760 --> 00:08:49,400 Speaker 1: died down. We're gonna get another report from an excellent source, 169 00:08:49,440 --> 00:08:50,079 Speaker 1: Todd Densman. 170 00:08:51,120 --> 00:08:54,480 Speaker 3: You're listening to John and Ken on demand from KFI 171 00:08:54,720 --> 00:08:55,640 Speaker 3: AM six forty. 172 00:08:57,080 --> 00:08:59,320 Speaker 1: All right, so we're gonna talk about the border. A 173 00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:01,760 Speaker 1: couple of big developments. Will have Todd Benzman on after 174 00:09:01,800 --> 00:09:03,600 Speaker 1: one point thirty to report on one of them going 175 00:09:03,600 --> 00:09:06,680 Speaker 1: on in Texas, at least one of them. There is 176 00:09:06,679 --> 00:09:10,680 Speaker 1: a country that last official count had twenty eight point 177 00:09:10,679 --> 00:09:13,319 Speaker 1: two million people in it. I say that because I 178 00:09:13,360 --> 00:09:15,840 Speaker 1: think they're all coming here. Anybody ever guess what country 179 00:09:15,840 --> 00:09:18,679 Speaker 1: that is? Venezuela. That is correct. 180 00:09:19,240 --> 00:09:24,360 Speaker 2: They're having trouble here is the description hyperinflation, escalating starvation, disease, crime, 181 00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:28,200 Speaker 2: and mortality rates resulting in massive emigration from the country. 182 00:09:28,200 --> 00:09:30,360 Speaker 2: As you know, they had a president named you Go Chavez, 183 00:09:30,400 --> 00:09:33,959 Speaker 2: but he's gone. However, his successor is worse, Nicholas Maduro. 184 00:09:35,040 --> 00:09:39,040 Speaker 2: Our relationship with that country is shaky. Of course, it's 185 00:09:39,120 --> 00:09:42,120 Speaker 2: communists kind of. So they're leaving and they're coming here 186 00:09:42,120 --> 00:09:46,840 Speaker 2: in big numbers. And the development, which was greeted very 187 00:09:46,840 --> 00:09:50,200 Speaker 2: happily by the New York City Mayor Eric Adams, is 188 00:09:50,200 --> 00:09:53,320 Speaker 2: that the Biden administration is going to give Venezuelans what 189 00:09:53,360 --> 00:09:56,920 Speaker 2: they call temporary protected status, which means they get work permits. 190 00:09:57,880 --> 00:10:00,680 Speaker 2: And my reaction to this was Oh boy, that'll bring 191 00:10:00,679 --> 00:10:03,080 Speaker 2: more Venezuelans into the country. Wound it once they find 192 00:10:03,120 --> 00:10:06,000 Speaker 2: out that they're going to get work authorization and deportation protection. 193 00:10:06,200 --> 00:10:08,200 Speaker 1: Uh oh yeah, no, this is going to make the 194 00:10:08,240 --> 00:10:14,440 Speaker 1: situation much much worse. It is a stupid move. Stupid 195 00:10:14,800 --> 00:10:17,120 Speaker 1: stupid move because. 196 00:10:16,760 --> 00:10:19,199 Speaker 2: They praised it, because he said, well, now they can work, 197 00:10:19,280 --> 00:10:21,160 Speaker 2: maybe they can find a place to live in my city. 198 00:10:21,280 --> 00:10:24,360 Speaker 1: Right because Adams can't afford to take care of them. 199 00:10:24,840 --> 00:10:27,280 Speaker 1: It's going to cost it's costing them billions and billions 200 00:10:27,320 --> 00:10:30,120 Speaker 1: of dollars that he doesn't have in the budget, and 201 00:10:30,160 --> 00:10:34,120 Speaker 1: he's going to have to start cutting services to New 202 00:10:34,200 --> 00:10:36,760 Speaker 1: York City residents. We're only going to put up with 203 00:10:36,800 --> 00:10:39,080 Speaker 1: that for about five minutes before it's going to be 204 00:10:39,080 --> 00:10:42,199 Speaker 1: off with Adams's head. And it's Adam's fault for declaring 205 00:10:42,200 --> 00:10:45,040 Speaker 1: it a sanctuary city. Dadam's fault for going along with 206 00:10:45,120 --> 00:10:47,359 Speaker 1: this whole stupid Biden idea. 207 00:10:47,559 --> 00:10:50,640 Speaker 2: The declaration from that dope Mayorcis, the head of the 208 00:10:50,640 --> 00:10:53,719 Speaker 2: Department of Homeland Security, says it is for Venezuelans who 209 00:10:53,720 --> 00:10:57,360 Speaker 2: have arrived here after July thirty, before July thirty first, 210 00:10:57,360 --> 00:11:00,199 Speaker 2: twenty twenty three. All right, if you arrive here after 211 00:11:00,280 --> 00:11:02,680 Speaker 2: that date, you're not eligible for the protection. But we 212 00:11:02,760 --> 00:11:05,480 Speaker 2: found out in the past that doesn't matter. People said, 213 00:11:05,480 --> 00:11:07,000 Speaker 2: we'll just come for the next declaration. 214 00:11:07,080 --> 00:11:09,160 Speaker 1: They're going to renew it eventually, and that's what the 215 00:11:09,240 --> 00:11:12,640 Speaker 1: Venoazoelians are counting on. I heard this morning some great 216 00:11:12,760 --> 00:11:15,679 Speaker 1: reporting by Bill Malugin over at Fox uh huh, and 217 00:11:16,160 --> 00:11:19,400 Speaker 1: he was, you know, he plays it straight, he really does. 218 00:11:19,840 --> 00:11:22,800 Speaker 1: He even pushes back against some of the wackier Fox hosts, 219 00:11:23,400 --> 00:11:28,000 Speaker 1: But he said, the stuff that the administration is saying 220 00:11:28,040 --> 00:11:32,120 Speaker 1: as to why this happens, one of the spokesholes had said, oh, 221 00:11:32,160 --> 00:11:35,680 Speaker 1: where they're coming because of climate change? And he goes, 222 00:11:36,400 --> 00:11:38,640 Speaker 1: He goes, I've been standing here for two years. I've 223 00:11:38,679 --> 00:11:41,680 Speaker 1: talked till a lot. He got migrants, right, he said, 224 00:11:41,679 --> 00:11:44,600 Speaker 1: you know, the number of migrants who mentioned climate change 225 00:11:44,640 --> 00:11:48,840 Speaker 1: is the reason. Zero? He said zero. It's zero, and 226 00:11:48,880 --> 00:11:52,200 Speaker 1: he said climate change. He said, And it's as hot 227 00:11:52,240 --> 00:11:54,400 Speaker 1: here in Texas as it is in Venezuela. 228 00:11:54,640 --> 00:11:56,880 Speaker 2: They're just trying to help out their other topic is 229 00:11:56,920 --> 00:11:59,400 Speaker 2: all they're doing the talking point for a dopey media. 230 00:11:59,559 --> 00:12:01,720 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, that's right. We got to do something about 231 00:12:01,720 --> 00:12:04,440 Speaker 1: climate tante. It's bringing people here from other countries. Now, yeah, 232 00:12:04,480 --> 00:12:06,600 Speaker 1: but this is what they do. They glide right in 233 00:12:07,120 --> 00:12:10,800 Speaker 1: to waving the climate flag. They come here, you know, 234 00:12:10,880 --> 00:12:15,360 Speaker 1: primarily for jobs. There's a small number who are getting 235 00:12:15,440 --> 00:12:18,880 Speaker 1: chased out because of you know, an authoritarian government. But 236 00:12:19,120 --> 00:12:22,880 Speaker 1: it's jobs because Venezuela, as you laid out, they were, 237 00:12:23,040 --> 00:12:25,920 Speaker 1: by the way, you socialism fans, this is what happened. 238 00:12:26,040 --> 00:12:29,000 Speaker 1: Venezuela went socialists. What they did is there was actually 239 00:12:29,040 --> 00:12:32,760 Speaker 1: a fairly rich country because they have a tremendous amount oil. 240 00:12:33,280 --> 00:12:37,520 Speaker 1: But the Hugo Shavas nationalized the oil companies, which means 241 00:12:37,600 --> 00:12:40,520 Speaker 1: rather than the private companies running them, he was running 242 00:12:40,559 --> 00:12:44,079 Speaker 1: them and he just he ruined it. And so the 243 00:12:44,200 --> 00:12:47,400 Speaker 1: national income disappeared, and to make up for it, they 244 00:12:47,400 --> 00:12:51,679 Speaker 1: started printing, printing tons and tons of money money, and 245 00:12:51,800 --> 00:12:54,720 Speaker 1: so suddenly they ended up with like triple digit inflation 246 00:12:55,600 --> 00:12:58,320 Speaker 1: and so nobody could afford food. I mean, it was 247 00:12:58,480 --> 00:13:02,880 Speaker 1: totally created by Go Chavez and his successor and this 248 00:13:03,200 --> 00:13:06,880 Speaker 1: wacko socialist communist government. This is why people are fleeing. 249 00:13:06,920 --> 00:13:09,520 Speaker 2: And you can understand people wanting to flee a country 250 00:13:09,520 --> 00:13:12,080 Speaker 2: in that kind of shape, But we just can't handle 251 00:13:12,120 --> 00:13:14,920 Speaker 2: the influx. As I said, there's twenty eight million. I mean, 252 00:13:14,920 --> 00:13:18,199 Speaker 2: that's less than California's population. But once they hear about 253 00:13:18,200 --> 00:13:21,000 Speaker 2: temporary protected status, there could be tens of thousands more 254 00:13:21,320 --> 00:13:23,160 Speaker 2: coming to the United States because like, well. 255 00:13:23,120 --> 00:13:27,000 Speaker 1: Now we get some specials standing what you do. And 256 00:13:27,040 --> 00:13:29,559 Speaker 1: one of the Border Patrol agents was laying this out 257 00:13:29,600 --> 00:13:34,040 Speaker 1: to illusion you don't need any new laws. Title eight 258 00:13:34,800 --> 00:13:39,320 Speaker 1: is what always governs the border policy, and Title eight 259 00:13:39,440 --> 00:13:42,480 Speaker 1: says when these when you encounter these people, you simply 260 00:13:42,480 --> 00:13:45,240 Speaker 1: deport them immediately. And then under Trump there was the 261 00:13:45,280 --> 00:13:48,560 Speaker 1: Remain in Mexico program where people had to stay in 262 00:13:48,600 --> 00:13:51,480 Speaker 1: Mexico and wait for a very very very long process. 263 00:13:52,120 --> 00:13:54,920 Speaker 1: But that's what you do. All that's in place, all 264 00:13:55,000 --> 00:13:58,360 Speaker 1: that has been the law forever. And this is just 265 00:13:58,800 --> 00:14:02,360 Speaker 1: Biden anarchy. You want to know how bad it is. 266 00:14:02,400 --> 00:14:05,199 Speaker 1: In Venezuela has a story that's making news this afternoon. 267 00:14:05,679 --> 00:14:08,960 Speaker 1: They had to send in eleven thousand security personnel to 268 00:14:09,080 --> 00:14:12,960 Speaker 1: retake a prison called Tokorone Prison. It has been run 269 00:14:13,000 --> 00:14:17,160 Speaker 1: by inmates for years. Prisoner's rome freely. It's got hotel 270 00:14:17,200 --> 00:14:19,840 Speaker 1: like facilities, including a pool, a nightclub at a mini zoo. 271 00:14:21,480 --> 00:14:25,920 Speaker 1: This is a jail in Venezuela because apparently it's the 272 00:14:25,960 --> 00:14:30,160 Speaker 1: headquarters of the most powerful transnational gang in Venezuela called 273 00:14:30,200 --> 00:14:34,960 Speaker 1: Trend di Aragua. They took over the prison and they've 274 00:14:35,040 --> 00:14:39,040 Speaker 1: run it for years. There's even a picture here from overhead, 275 00:14:39,040 --> 00:14:41,600 Speaker 1: an aerial picture showing a baseball field, a mini zoo, stables, 276 00:14:41,600 --> 00:14:45,400 Speaker 1: swimming pool, children's play area, shacks, prison blocks. I'm like, well, 277 00:14:45,440 --> 00:14:47,880 Speaker 1: if they run the prison, why does anybody stay there? 278 00:14:47,920 --> 00:14:50,560 Speaker 1: You could probably be free to come and go because 279 00:14:50,880 --> 00:14:55,360 Speaker 1: they got a baseball field and a zoo. It's a 280 00:14:55,480 --> 00:14:58,560 Speaker 1: joke like a resort. 281 00:14:59,000 --> 00:15:01,600 Speaker 2: When we return, we will be talking more about the 282 00:15:01,600 --> 00:15:03,680 Speaker 2: border with a man who certainly knows a lot.

Texas is the center of the action. 309 00:16:20,200 --> 00:16:24,040 Speaker 1: It's thirty thousand people that live there and it is 310 00:16:24,080 --> 00:16:27,760 Speaker 1: getting thousands and thousands and thousands of illegal aliens pouring in. 311 00:16:28,400 --> 00:16:36,080 Speaker 4: What's going on, well, the circumstance there is Texas Governor 312 00:16:36,080 --> 00:16:40,880 Speaker 4: Greg Abbott, Texas Department of Public Safety, and the National 313 00:16:40,960 --> 00:16:46,160 Speaker 4: Texas National Guard have been employing a new tactic at 314 00:16:46,200 --> 00:16:49,840 Speaker 4: the river where they string razor wire for thousands and 315 00:16:49,880 --> 00:16:54,120 Speaker 4: thousands of yards and then they physically block the migrants 316 00:16:54,400 --> 00:16:58,960 Speaker 4: at the river's edge. They don't let him up, kind 317 00:16:58,960 --> 00:17:01,200 Speaker 4: of like NFL line and you know, right on the line. 318 00:17:01,200 --> 00:17:03,720 Speaker 4: And they've been doing this for a couple of months 319 00:17:03,760 --> 00:17:08,480 Speaker 4: now it to great effect. The migrants have what they 320 00:17:08,480 --> 00:17:11,600 Speaker 4: did a few days ago, as either they or the 321 00:17:11,640 --> 00:17:16,760 Speaker 4: cartels figured out that the way to defeat the Texas 322 00:17:16,880 --> 00:17:21,600 Speaker 4: cordon the defense is to mass up a few thousand 323 00:17:21,720 --> 00:17:26,560 Speaker 4: all at once and charge right through the razor wire, 324 00:17:27,119 --> 00:17:33,480 Speaker 4: right through the Texas border fortifications, right over the Texas 325 00:17:33,600 --> 00:17:36,560 Speaker 4: troopers and National Guard, and then just to pour through 326 00:17:37,280 --> 00:17:43,120 Speaker 4: and find Federal Border Patrol agents who under orders from Washington, 327 00:17:43,640 --> 00:17:46,360 Speaker 4: will let them all into the interior of the country. 328 00:17:47,040 --> 00:17:49,919 Speaker 4: That's what's been going on. So there have been some 329 00:17:50,040 --> 00:17:58,520 Speaker 4: bonzai rushes to defeat Texas. What Texas did was in response, 330 00:17:59,400 --> 00:18:05,639 Speaker 4: closed the international Bridge from Mexico to shut down all 331 00:18:06,160 --> 00:18:10,199 Speaker 4: international trade through that area. They also shut down the 332 00:18:10,200 --> 00:18:14,879 Speaker 4: bridge in the International Bridge over which all the trucks 333 00:18:14,920 --> 00:18:18,800 Speaker 4: pass in El Paso, and they have blocked up all 334 00:18:18,840 --> 00:18:22,760 Speaker 4: the freight train traffic too. The reason they did that 335 00:18:23,000 --> 00:18:27,160 Speaker 4: is that it gives the Texas governor leverage over the Mexicans. 336 00:18:27,920 --> 00:18:33,439 Speaker 4: So they demanded that the Mexicans deploy their state police 337 00:18:33,520 --> 00:18:39,240 Speaker 4: everywhere and defeat the migrants on their side, disperse them, 338 00:18:40,200 --> 00:18:42,560 Speaker 4: move them around to pour them out of the area, 339 00:18:42,880 --> 00:18:45,240 Speaker 4: make sure that they can't mass up and do bonzai 340 00:18:45,359 --> 00:18:49,680 Speaker 4: more Bonzai charges. So that's been all the drama going 341 00:18:49,720 --> 00:18:56,440 Speaker 4: on down there, amid a very very significant overall spike 342 00:18:57,320 --> 00:19:04,600 Speaker 4: in migration the southern border, a huge, unbelievable spike going 343 00:19:04,640 --> 00:19:07,439 Speaker 4: on right now from Tijuana all the way to the 344 00:19:07,480 --> 00:19:11,640 Speaker 4: Gulf of Mexico. The entire border is just an inferno 345 00:19:11,720 --> 00:19:16,480 Speaker 4: on fire with massive numbers. We had ten thousand apprehended 346 00:19:17,080 --> 00:19:19,359 Speaker 4: just yesterday. We're probably gonna have more than that today. 347 00:19:19,400 --> 00:19:23,360 Speaker 4: A couple of days ago we had fourteen thousand. These 348 00:19:23,359 --> 00:19:27,960 Speaker 4: are just astronomical, historic numbers going on all along the 349 00:19:28,040 --> 00:19:28,840 Speaker 4: southern border. 350 00:19:29,040 --> 00:19:31,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm looking at a story Todd in the Wall 351 00:19:31,359 --> 00:19:34,640 Speaker 1: Street Journal, And of course we covered this back in May. 352 00:19:35,040 --> 00:19:37,720 Speaker 1: They finally ended Title forty two, and of course that's 353 00:19:37,760 --> 00:19:40,359 Speaker 1: the health order they used to turn away migrants. So 354 00:19:40,400 --> 00:19:42,520 Speaker 1: the Biden administration said, well, now we're going to go 355 00:19:42,560 --> 00:19:45,040 Speaker 1: back and use the old rules, which includes harsher penalties 356 00:19:45,320 --> 00:19:45,800 Speaker 1: and says here. 357 00:19:45,880 --> 00:19:48,359 Speaker 2: For about a month it appeared to be working. Border 358 00:19:48,440 --> 00:19:50,600 Speaker 2: arrests fell to three thousand from their daily peak of 359 00:19:50,640 --> 00:19:53,560 Speaker 2: ten thousand, but since then the government has struggled to 360 00:19:53,640 --> 00:19:56,720 Speaker 2: ramp up its new system of consequence, particularly for people 361 00:19:56,760 --> 00:19:57,720 Speaker 2: traveling with children. 362 00:19:58,040 --> 00:19:58,640 Speaker 1: It could it be. 363 00:19:58,600 --> 00:20:00,600 Speaker 2: Todd that we're just got to people that well, you know, 364 00:20:00,840 --> 00:20:02,280 Speaker 2: they said they were going to get tougher, but it's 365 00:20:02,320 --> 00:20:03,080 Speaker 2: not really tougher. 366 00:20:03,920 --> 00:20:07,359 Speaker 4: That's exactly what happens. I mean, we predicted this. It 367 00:20:07,400 --> 00:20:13,360 Speaker 4: was very predictable if you understand migrant thinking, how they 368 00:20:14,200 --> 00:20:17,760 Speaker 4: look at a new policy like this. Everybody who knows 369 00:20:17,800 --> 00:20:21,160 Speaker 4: that knew that there would be a brief pause while 370 00:20:21,200 --> 00:20:26,000 Speaker 4: they figured it out. Are the is Biden really going 371 00:20:26,080 --> 00:20:32,600 Speaker 4: to implement harsher policies on us? So the first ones 372 00:20:32,640 --> 00:20:35,520 Speaker 4: went through and discovered, wow, they didn't do anything. We 373 00:20:35,560 --> 00:20:38,560 Speaker 4: got in just the same, and they sent self east 374 00:20:38,640 --> 00:20:42,400 Speaker 4: back of themselves in Washington and New York or whatever, 375 00:20:43,080 --> 00:20:46,440 Speaker 4: and the ones behind them said, well, the ones ahead 376 00:20:46,440 --> 00:20:48,760 Speaker 4: of us got through, so let's go through now ourselves. 377 00:20:48,800 --> 00:20:51,520 Speaker 4: And then it just went like that until we have 378 00:20:51,600 --> 00:20:55,760 Speaker 4: what we have now. It just they're not implementing any 379 00:20:55,800 --> 00:20:58,639 Speaker 4: of the harsh part. They're letting everybody in. Everybody, pretty 380 00:20:58,720 --> 00:21:03,600 Speaker 4: much everybody crosses that border one way or another. If 381 00:21:03,600 --> 00:21:07,160 Speaker 4: they can reach us Order Patrol and turn themselves in, 382 00:21:07,720 --> 00:21:11,439 Speaker 4: they will be released into the United States. Is what 383 00:21:11,560 --> 00:21:12,199 Speaker 4: is causing this. 384 00:21:12,400 --> 00:21:17,440 Speaker 1: They also introduced an app to uh like Preapprove Want 385 00:21:17,440 --> 00:21:21,880 Speaker 1: to Be Immigrants and the CBP app, and I heard 386 00:21:21,920 --> 00:21:26,240 Speaker 1: today on a TV report that the app crashes a 387 00:21:26,240 --> 00:21:30,919 Speaker 1: lot and malfunctions, and so they that's another reason they 388 00:21:31,040 --> 00:21:32,440 Speaker 1: a lot of these people just said, out of the 389 00:21:32,480 --> 00:21:36,160 Speaker 1: heck with it, let's just storm the border because the 390 00:21:36,200 --> 00:21:37,400 Speaker 1: technology doesn't work. 391 00:21:38,840 --> 00:21:41,000 Speaker 4: Well, I mean that's sort of true. I mean, really 392 00:21:41,000 --> 00:21:45,320 Speaker 4: what's going on is the app, the reservation app, where 393 00:21:45,920 --> 00:21:49,320 Speaker 4: you can schedule an appointment and then walk across the 394 00:21:50,240 --> 00:21:53,840 Speaker 4: port of entry right through like the normal bridge through 395 00:21:53,880 --> 00:21:55,879 Speaker 4: the port of entry, and then we would stamp you 396 00:21:55,960 --> 00:22:00,520 Speaker 4: into the country. That has been going on as as 397 00:22:00,560 --> 00:22:03,920 Speaker 4: a way for the administration to get the numbers down 398 00:22:04,080 --> 00:22:07,680 Speaker 4: of people across illegally. We're going to put you through 399 00:22:07,720 --> 00:22:09,760 Speaker 4: this way so that we don't have to count you 400 00:22:10,320 --> 00:22:14,040 Speaker 4: in this other terrible number The problem is that it 401 00:22:14,440 --> 00:22:19,720 Speaker 4: is so popular that the entire world to something to 402 00:22:19,760 --> 00:22:22,680 Speaker 4: come for it, and the lines got really really long, 403 00:22:23,680 --> 00:22:28,440 Speaker 4: so and there's no fast pass really like at Disney World. 404 00:22:29,160 --> 00:22:32,000 Speaker 4: But so people were like, well, if I'm going to 405 00:22:32,040 --> 00:22:35,160 Speaker 4: get it in any way, if I cross illegally, why 406 00:22:35,200 --> 00:22:38,159 Speaker 4: don't I just cross illegally. So that's what they're doing. 407 00:22:38,320 --> 00:22:41,720 Speaker 4: It's just human nature. All of this is completely rational. 408 00:22:41,880 --> 00:22:44,840 Speaker 1: All right, So Biden's going to give a working work 409 00:22:44,880 --> 00:22:48,240 Speaker 1: permits to add GPS to Venezuelans. You're about a half 410 00:22:48,560 --> 00:22:52,480 Speaker 1: million Venezuelans. Well, what are going to be the consequences 411 00:22:52,480 --> 00:22:52,760 Speaker 1: of that? 412 00:22:54,680 --> 00:22:59,240 Speaker 4: Well, for one thing about those Venezuelans that they extend. 413 00:22:59,240 --> 00:23:05,800 Speaker 4: The Administration extended what's called temporary protection status, which is 414 00:23:05,840 --> 00:23:09,560 Speaker 4: a humanitarian intervention that says you can't go back to 415 00:23:09,640 --> 00:23:13,359 Speaker 4: your home country because it's too dangerous for you, and 416 00:23:13,400 --> 00:23:15,440 Speaker 4: we're America and we're not going to do a thing 417 00:23:15,560 --> 00:23:20,880 Speaker 4: like that. The problem is that virtually none of these 418 00:23:21,000 --> 00:23:25,600 Speaker 4: Venezuelans are coming from their home countries. From their home country. 419 00:23:25,600 --> 00:23:29,400 Speaker 4: They have not lived in Venezuela in six, seven, eight, nine, 420 00:23:29,440 --> 00:23:33,760 Speaker 4: ten years. These are people that had safe haven in 421 00:23:33,920 --> 00:23:42,240 Speaker 4: neighboring countries like Colombia, Ecuador, the Caribbean, not islands Central America. 422 00:23:42,920 --> 00:23:45,080 Speaker 4: They just decided to come. Now. How do I know 423 00:23:45,119 --> 00:23:47,880 Speaker 4: this because I interview them all the time. Because they 424 00:23:47,960 --> 00:23:51,040 Speaker 4: saw that all their friends and relatives were being let in. 425 00:23:52,359 --> 00:23:55,000 Speaker 4: So they were like, Hey, I'm safe and doing great here, 426 00:23:55,040 --> 00:23:58,439 Speaker 4: but like they're letting us in. So they came in, 427 00:23:58,520 --> 00:24:02,760 Speaker 4: and then everybody in the administration and it is treating 428 00:24:02,800 --> 00:24:05,800 Speaker 4: them as though, we can't send you back to Venezuela. 429 00:24:05,880 --> 00:24:08,040 Speaker 4: That would be terrible. But none of them are coming 430 00:24:08,040 --> 00:24:12,000 Speaker 4: from Venezuela, or very few of them are coming from Venezuela. 431 00:24:12,119 --> 00:24:14,919 Speaker 4: I did a major report on this where I've got 432 00:24:15,240 --> 00:24:17,960 Speaker 4: ten of them interviewed saying, oh, I was doing great 433 00:24:18,000 --> 00:24:20,840 Speaker 4: in Ecuador, I was doing lot at a job, and 434 00:24:21,080 --> 00:24:24,959 Speaker 4: Colombia is doing great. Just coming because they're letting us in. 435 00:24:26,200 --> 00:24:31,040 Speaker 4: So it's just a it's a masquerade that we need 436 00:24:31,040 --> 00:24:34,920 Speaker 4: to give them temporary protection status. We ought to be 437 00:24:35,520 --> 00:24:39,600 Speaker 4: sending them back at the border to Colombia, to Ecuador 438 00:24:39,760 --> 00:24:42,000 Speaker 4: and to all of these safe countries where they were 439 00:24:42,000 --> 00:24:42,520 Speaker 4: doing great. 440 00:24:43,520 --> 00:24:45,720 Speaker 2: All right, Todd, thank you very much for coming on. 441 00:24:45,760 --> 00:24:47,040 Speaker 2: Always appreciate your input. 442 00:24:48,480 --> 00:24:49,359 Speaker 4: Sure, thank thank you. 443 00:24:49,400 --> 00:24:50,240 Speaker 1: For having me great. 444 00:24:50,280 --> 00:24:53,760 Speaker 2: Cloud Benzman is the Texas based Senior National Security Fellow 445 00:24:53,800 --> 00:24:56,800 Speaker 2: for the Center for Immigration Studies, which. 446 00:24:56,640 --> 00:24:57,240 Speaker 1: We've talked about. 447 00:24:57,280 --> 00:25:00,720 Speaker 2: It's a great organization and again he does at this book. 448 00:25:00,960 --> 00:25:03,160 Speaker 2: You might want to check out Overrun, How Joe Biden 449 00:25:03,240 --> 00:25:06,040 Speaker 2: unleased the greatest border crisis in US history. 450 00:25:06,600 --> 00:25:09,960 Speaker 3: You're listening to John and ken on demand from KFI 451 00:25:10,200 --> 00:25:11,119 Speaker 3: AM six forty. 452 00:25:11,800 --> 00:25:14,119 Speaker 1: Yeah, tomorrow is the Moist Line. It's returning to the 453 00:25:14,160 --> 00:25:17,360 Speaker 1: Johnny kensho tomorrow during the three o'clock hour. There might 454 00:25:17,400 --> 00:25:18,800 Speaker 1: still be some room for your message. 455 00:25:18,920 --> 00:25:21,360 Speaker 2: Use the iHeartRadio app, the microphone iconor called the toll 456 00:25:21,359 --> 00:25:24,639 Speaker 2: free number one eight seven seven Moist eighty six. We 457 00:25:24,720 --> 00:25:26,919 Speaker 2: have a chance after two o'clock to talk to the 458 00:25:27,000 --> 00:25:30,919 Speaker 2: Sacramento County District Attorney. The end Hole is coming on 459 00:25:30,960 --> 00:25:33,560 Speaker 2: the show, and the reason is he has sued the 460 00:25:33,600 --> 00:25:36,480 Speaker 2: city of Sacramento over the homeless problem. That's a big 461 00:25:36,520 --> 00:25:38,840 Speaker 2: step that doesn't happen very often where a DA su 462 00:25:38,920 --> 00:25:39,639 Speaker 2: is a city within it. 463 00:25:39,720 --> 00:25:43,800 Speaker 1: I didn't know a DA could do that. When you 464 00:25:43,840 --> 00:25:46,800 Speaker 1: first heard it, didn't that confuse you? I confused me 465 00:25:46,840 --> 00:25:48,480 Speaker 1: a little. It's like, well, how does a DA decide 466 00:25:48,480 --> 00:25:49,200 Speaker 1: to sue a city. 467 00:25:49,800 --> 00:25:52,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, particularly since they're both the same name, Sacramento County 468 00:25:52,240 --> 00:25:53,040 Speaker 2: Sacramento City. 469 00:25:53,040 --> 00:25:55,520 Speaker 1: And you get confused. First, sacramentalize its own government has 470 00:25:55,520 --> 00:25:57,880 Speaker 1: its own city attorney, right, because what the DA does 471 00:25:58,000 --> 00:26:02,239 Speaker 1: is prosecute criminal cases. That's true, And so here is 472 00:26:02,320 --> 00:26:06,320 Speaker 1: basically a civil lawsuit against the city for creating a 473 00:26:06,320 --> 00:26:09,720 Speaker 1: public nuisance. Like a big part of his lack of enforcement, 474 00:26:09,880 --> 00:26:12,919 Speaker 1: that's what he's claiming not doing anything so about the 475 00:26:12,920 --> 00:26:15,520 Speaker 1: growing problem. He says, it's not only bad for people 476 00:26:15,560 --> 00:26:18,000 Speaker 1: trying to get to work into it, it's the homeless retying. 477 00:26:18,040 --> 00:26:19,719 Speaker 1: Because when I was going through the story is I 478 00:26:19,760 --> 00:26:22,080 Speaker 1: was looking for somebody like Daryl Steinberg to say, well, 479 00:26:22,119 --> 00:26:24,960 Speaker 1: you can't do this, But I didn't see that, So 480 00:26:25,040 --> 00:26:28,439 Speaker 1: I guess he obviously can do this. It could be 481 00:26:28,440 --> 00:26:30,200 Speaker 1: your first question, how can you do this? Gey you 482 00:26:30,240 --> 00:26:36,440 Speaker 1: think George Gascon would sue god No over homelessness? Well 483 00:26:36,600 --> 00:26:38,400 Speaker 1: this is if this is the president here. 484 00:26:39,600 --> 00:26:42,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, but the different mindset. Yeah, well, man, we're going 485 00:26:42,720 --> 00:26:45,840 Speaker 2: to talk to you. Here's that. Well, we were talking 486 00:26:45,880 --> 00:26:48,440 Speaker 2: earlier this hour about the United Nations, the General Assembly, 487 00:26:48,520 --> 00:26:50,680 Speaker 2: the big meeting this week, and of course the reason 488 00:26:50,720 --> 00:26:52,960 Speaker 2: we talked about it earlier, is that Biden was confused, 489 00:26:52,960 --> 00:26:57,119 Speaker 2: as usual, running into flagpoles and not shaking hands with 490 00:26:57,119 --> 00:27:00,240 Speaker 2: people who were left hanging. Another good story, which always 491 00:27:00,280 --> 00:27:03,679 Speaker 2: pops up with these kinds of events, is it has 492 00:27:03,800 --> 00:27:05,879 Speaker 2: brought in and I got to be clear about this, 493 00:27:06,520 --> 00:27:11,280 Speaker 2: the high end hookers, you see, because these diplomats from 494 00:27:11,320 --> 00:27:14,359 Speaker 2: all over the world have to be very discreet, but 495 00:27:14,840 --> 00:27:17,439 Speaker 2: some of them come from countries where you just can't 496 00:27:17,440 --> 00:27:19,680 Speaker 2: do that kind of stuff. So they look at a 497 00:27:19,720 --> 00:27:23,160 Speaker 2: trip to New York City as a chance to well, 498 00:27:23,200 --> 00:27:26,919 Speaker 2: you know, have some fun, and the business goes up 499 00:27:26,960 --> 00:27:29,639 Speaker 2: twenty to twenty five percent. As one source familiar with 500 00:27:29,680 --> 00:27:32,400 Speaker 2: these things, girls will fly in from Vegas and Europe. 501 00:27:32,800 --> 00:27:35,720 Speaker 2: It's like a hooker convention. So they're not going to 502 00:27:35,800 --> 00:27:38,600 Speaker 2: go to neighborhoods of New York City or strip clubs 503 00:27:38,600 --> 00:27:41,720 Speaker 2: because they can't be seen publicly. What they do is 504 00:27:41,760 --> 00:27:44,520 Speaker 2: they get some sort of a third party to arrange 505 00:27:44,520 --> 00:27:47,640 Speaker 2: a high end a female to come to a hotel room. 506 00:27:47,600 --> 00:27:52,520 Speaker 1: Three thousand to five thousand dollars per session, and these 507 00:27:52,560 --> 00:27:55,640 Speaker 1: girls are making Wow, they must be good. Are they 508 00:27:55,680 --> 00:27:59,119 Speaker 1: doing just what I want to know? It's like, well, 509 00:28:00,240 --> 00:28:03,560 Speaker 1: be quite a performance for five thousand dollars. They Yeah, 510 00:28:03,600 --> 00:28:07,120 Speaker 1: I would imagine the it's pretty nice, and they probably 511 00:28:07,160 --> 00:28:09,880 Speaker 1: are very nice. And no, it's not the dress, it's 512 00:28:09,920 --> 00:28:13,000 Speaker 1: the it's the activity. 513 00:28:13,119 --> 00:28:15,880 Speaker 2: It says the diplomats go crazy because where they come from, 514 00:28:15,880 --> 00:28:16,600 Speaker 2: they're repressed. 515 00:28:17,280 --> 00:28:19,639 Speaker 1: They don't have these kinds of girls. They have access 516 00:28:19,680 --> 00:28:22,720 Speaker 1: to it. So the wives back home don't engage the 517 00:28:22,720 --> 00:28:30,600 Speaker 1: way the Las Vegas girls do. No, so they they 518 00:28:30,640 --> 00:28:33,080 Speaker 1: don't want to be seen in strip clubs. So they 519 00:28:33,080 --> 00:28:34,679 Speaker 1: come to the hotels. 520 00:28:34,880 --> 00:28:37,040 Speaker 2: Right, and do not want to deal with, you know, 521 00:28:37,040 --> 00:28:38,480 Speaker 2: trying to just get a hooker off the street. 522 00:28:38,840 --> 00:28:40,800 Speaker 1: Right, And they don't even want to google the word 523 00:28:40,960 --> 00:28:43,640 Speaker 1: escorts because they don't know who's tracking them, that's right. 524 00:28:44,480 --> 00:28:52,600 Speaker 2: So they arrange these VIP rooms are booked. These diplomats 525 00:28:52,600 --> 00:28:54,920 Speaker 2: can spend anywhere from fifty to one hundred thousand dollars 526 00:28:54,960 --> 00:29:00,360 Speaker 2: in a night of whose money probably from oil riches 527 00:29:00,480 --> 00:29:01,239 Speaker 2: or something like that. 528 00:29:01,480 --> 00:29:07,760 Speaker 1: Or yes, let's think oil rich countries with repressed cultures. Hmm, yeah, 529 00:29:07,800 --> 00:29:11,640 Speaker 1: that does narrow down the field there. But and they 530 00:29:11,680 --> 00:29:15,760 Speaker 1: want American hookers. Yeah, I think I've heard that before. 531 00:29:16,640 --> 00:29:19,080 Speaker 2: Well, I mean, this is just taking several steps further 532 00:29:19,160 --> 00:29:20,720 Speaker 2: the old You know, the guy goes out of town, 533 00:29:20,720 --> 00:29:22,560 Speaker 2: the sales guy goes out of town to a convention. 534 00:29:22,720 --> 00:29:24,880 Speaker 2: It's a Midwest city, and that does the same kind 535 00:29:24,880 --> 00:29:25,120 Speaker 2: of thing. 536 00:29:25,160 --> 00:29:29,240 Speaker 1: That is the whole purpose of conventions and conferences, whether 537 00:29:29,280 --> 00:29:33,880 Speaker 1: it's business, diplomatic, political. That's all the guys are going for. 538 00:29:34,160 --> 00:29:36,000 Speaker 2: To get drunk into fine. 539 00:29:36,040 --> 00:29:38,000 Speaker 1: Do you think they're going so they could sit in 540 00:29:38,000 --> 00:29:41,720 Speaker 1: a stuffy hotel room and listen to six hours of 541 00:29:42,120 --> 00:29:46,480 Speaker 1: PowerPoint presentations. No, they're only going for the booze and 542 00:29:46,520 --> 00:29:49,600 Speaker 1: the sex period. End of story. 543 00:29:50,240 --> 00:29:50,520 Speaker 4: All right. 544 00:29:50,560 --> 00:29:53,480 Speaker 1: When we return, we'll be talking to the District Attorney 545 00:29:53,560 --> 00:29:56,400 Speaker 1: of Sacramento County, never been on the show before.
