WEBVTT - A Massacre Of Mormons In Mexico 0:00:10.800 --> 0:00:16.200 You are entering the Freedom Hunch, a massacre of Americans 0:00:16.280 --> 0:00:19.360 in Mexico at the hands of the vicious cartels. We'll 0:00:19.360 --> 0:00:22.959 talk about where that stands right now. Also, the transcript 0:00:22.960 --> 0:00:26.119 is out of at least one impeachment witness against Trump. 0:00:26.239 --> 0:00:30.160 We know the Democrats are cheating on the process. Baseball's 0:00:30.240 --> 0:00:32.800 kurts Zuki was at the White House and he did 0:00:32.840 --> 0:00:37.080 something that upsets some folks. Also, has Jack Ryan been ruined? 0:00:37.159 --> 0:00:39.760 And is Aunt Becky going to prison for forty years? 0:00:39.760 --> 0:00:43.840 That and more coming up. This is the buck Sexton Show, 0:00:44.200 --> 0:00:46.960 where the mission or mission is to decode what really 0:00:47.000 --> 0:00:53.760 matters with actionable intelligence. Make no mistake America, You're a 0:00:53.760 --> 0:00:59.360 great American. Again the buck Sexton Show begins, Remember the 0:00:59.400 --> 0:01:05.640 nimpd buck Sexton. Welcome to the buck Sex and the Show. Everybody, 0:01:05.640 --> 0:01:07.640 Thank you so much for being here. We have a 0:01:07.680 --> 0:01:11.520 lot to get to today. As is our custom, I 0:01:11.560 --> 0:01:15.559 did want to start off though, with an absolutely gut punch, 0:01:15.840 --> 0:01:23.800 a gut punching, heart wrenching, really horrific story that I think, 0:01:23.880 --> 0:01:29.320 unfortunately is a harbinger of some further violence and instability 0:01:29.360 --> 0:01:32.639 on our southern border to come. Here's where it stands 0:01:32.760 --> 0:01:39.240 right now. Cartel gunmen have killed at least nine US citizens, 0:01:39.319 --> 0:01:43.600 including six children, who were in the Mexican border state 0:01:43.640 --> 0:01:47.840 of Sonora. This is not far from the US Mexico 0:01:47.880 --> 0:01:53.120 border with Arizona where this attack took place. Ranita Maria 0:01:53.280 --> 0:01:56.360 LeBaron died along with her six month old twins and 0:01:56.440 --> 0:02:01.520 her two other children aged ten and twelve. Christina at 0:02:01.560 --> 0:02:04.720 Langford Johnson, Donna Langford and two of Donna's children, aged 0:02:04.840 --> 0:02:09.600 three and eleven, were also killed. The victims here belonged 0:02:09.600 --> 0:02:15.360 to the LeBaron family. They are US citizens, dual citizens 0:02:15.360 --> 0:02:20.400 with Mexico who live who live in a Mormon breakaway 0:02:20.440 --> 0:02:27.440 community in this part of northern rural northern Mexico. The stories, 0:02:27.480 --> 0:02:31.360 the details that we have so far about this coordinated 0:02:31.400 --> 0:02:37.320 ambush are horrific, beyond imagining. There were children who died 0:02:37.919 --> 0:02:40.320 as these cars were on fire. They were strapped in 0:02:40.360 --> 0:02:46.560 the vehicles unable to escape. Children were reportedly executed while 0:02:46.600 --> 0:02:51.080 trying to run away from this three suv convoy after 0:02:51.120 --> 0:02:55.359 it had been attacked. There's also some early reports and 0:02:55.360 --> 0:02:57.680 indications that some of the women who were captured, they 0:02:57.720 --> 0:02:59.560 believe members of the family may have been captured or 0:02:59.600 --> 0:03:04.120 being held. We're sexually assaulted in this whole process too, 0:03:03.880 --> 0:03:09.040 as vicious and awful in ambush as you could imagine 0:03:09.280 --> 0:03:13.280 murdering children. A lot of people are going to see 0:03:13.280 --> 0:03:18.000 this and say, wait a second, you mean that Mexico 0:03:18.200 --> 0:03:20.280 is in a really bad place. This will be something 0:03:20.320 --> 0:03:24.440 of a surprise to them, not people who watch and 0:03:24.480 --> 0:03:27.840 listen to this show. However, you will recall that we 0:03:27.960 --> 0:03:32.200 have done in recent weeks stories on what happened in 0:03:32.280 --> 0:03:37.040 Kuliya Khan, Mexico, where you had cartel gunman on behalf 0:03:37.240 --> 0:03:43.120 of Chapo Guzman's son O video shut down essentially an 0:03:43.240 --> 0:03:46.840 entire city, a major city in Mexico, and have the 0:03:46.960 --> 0:03:50.520 national government back off. You know, when the national government 0:03:50.520 --> 0:03:52.960 backs off of a gunfight with the bad guys, with 0:03:53.000 --> 0:03:58.200 the thugs, you're in a very bad place. I've also 0:03:58.280 --> 0:04:01.680 been telling you now for the last two years that 0:04:02.000 --> 0:04:05.760 Mexico has the highest murder rate that it has had 0:04:05.800 --> 0:04:10.160 in history. Right now, that Mexico is seeing more violence 0:04:10.240 --> 0:04:13.320 internally than at any time since they have been counting homicides. 0:04:13.920 --> 0:04:17.000 How much of this do you see getting attention in 0:04:17.600 --> 0:04:20.039 the news media. There are reasons for that, my friends, 0:04:20.040 --> 0:04:22.160 This is not an oversight, This is not an accident. 0:04:22.680 --> 0:04:25.520 And I will get into why this doesn't fit the 0:04:25.600 --> 0:04:27.880 narrative for the mainstream meeting in a second. But going 0:04:27.960 --> 0:04:33.520 back into this, this ambush of women and children, defenseless 0:04:33.520 --> 0:04:36.559 women and children in a convoy on a dirt road, 0:04:38.120 --> 0:04:40.839 I do not believe. And this is now assessment. This 0:04:41.000 --> 0:04:43.120 is not reporting. This is not based on anything other 0:04:43.120 --> 0:04:46.000 than me looking through the details. But I used to 0:04:46.080 --> 0:04:47.840 do this quite a bit at the CIA and then 0:04:47.839 --> 0:04:51.200 at the NYPD Intelligence Division, look at the early signs 0:04:51.520 --> 0:04:54.320 to try to understand what the indicators are. People who 0:04:54.360 --> 0:04:58.640 are saying that this is an accident, meaning they thought 0:04:58.680 --> 0:05:01.400 that they were attacking a rival cartel, I don't believe that. 0:05:02.720 --> 0:05:05.560 I could be wrong. I don't believe it. People who 0:05:05.560 --> 0:05:09.599 are referring to this as being caught in the crossfire, well, 0:05:09.760 --> 0:05:12.200 that suggests that there were people on the other side 0:05:12.200 --> 0:05:14.800 firing and this convoy somehow got in the middle, which 0:05:14.839 --> 0:05:18.520 there's no evidence to support that either. I think there's 0:05:18.640 --> 0:05:22.040 a real effort here and some people from some people 0:05:22.080 --> 0:05:24.680 in our media, in the US media, to find an 0:05:24.720 --> 0:05:30.080 explanation for this that's not The cartels basically run Mexico, 0:05:31.200 --> 0:05:34.440 that the cartels are now more powerful than any politician, 0:05:34.839 --> 0:05:38.600 more powerful than the central government in a day to 0:05:38.760 --> 0:05:42.040 day way, and that they're just covering this up, and 0:05:42.120 --> 0:05:49.320 that Lopez Obrador has been with his hugs not bullets 0:05:49.360 --> 0:05:52.640 policy that's actually a thing, by the way, trying to 0:05:52.880 --> 0:05:56.120 find ways to do development and to not go to 0:05:56.160 --> 0:05:58.480 war with the cartels. The cartels have gone to war 0:05:58.520 --> 0:06:01.520 with Mexico, and what they show us now is that 0:06:01.560 --> 0:06:04.599 they have no problem engaging in the worst atrocities, not 0:06:04.680 --> 0:06:10.559 just against cartel rivals and innocent Mexicans, to the tune 0:06:10.600 --> 0:06:13.120 of tens of thousands of people a year, about thirty 0:06:13.520 --> 0:06:20.320 to thirty five thousand murders in Mexico every year. That's 0:06:20.360 --> 0:06:23.479 a lot for a country that's less than half the 0:06:23.520 --> 0:06:26.160 size of the United States and has about double our 0:06:26.800 --> 0:06:29.560 murder rate, perhaps even more like two and a half times. 0:06:29.680 --> 0:06:33.839 So there's a big problem here. But that the cartel 0:06:33.920 --> 0:06:37.640 would do this, this could be something of a turning point. 0:06:37.720 --> 0:06:40.520 You would think that perhaps this would get attention. These 0:06:40.560 --> 0:06:43.760 were Americans. These were at least nine perhaps more killed 0:06:43.760 --> 0:06:49.440 and perhaps more captured. Now and who knows what's going on. Unthinkable, unthinkable, 0:06:49.480 --> 0:06:53.719 atrocities in captivity. But these are our people. These are Americans. Yes, 0:06:53.760 --> 0:06:57.240 they're dual citizens, they're American citizens too, and they are 0:06:57.279 --> 0:07:00.960 down there in Mexico and they were just slaughter by cartels. 0:07:01.360 --> 0:07:05.240 Now I appreciate that President Trump has taken the position 0:07:05.240 --> 0:07:08.520 he has on this. He says that a wonderful family, 0:07:08.520 --> 0:07:10.800 this was on Twitter this morning, A wonderful family and 0:07:10.840 --> 0:07:14.640 friends from Utah got caught between two vicious drug cartels 0:07:15.000 --> 0:07:17.080 who were shooting at each other, with the result being 0:07:17.080 --> 0:07:20.120 many great American people killed, including young children, and some missing. 0:07:20.520 --> 0:07:23.000 If Mexico needs a request help in cleaning out these monsters, 0:07:23.040 --> 0:07:25.000 the United States stands ready, willing and able to get 0:07:25.040 --> 0:07:27.760 involved and do the job quickly and effectively. The great 0:07:27.800 --> 0:07:29.760 new president of Mexico has made this a big issue. 0:07:29.760 --> 0:07:32.080 But that cartels have become so large and powerful. You 0:07:32.160 --> 0:07:35.400 need sometimes an army to defeat an army. So the 0:07:35.440 --> 0:07:37.600 President is saying here himself that they were caught in 0:07:37.640 --> 0:07:40.440 the crossfire. I can't understand how that would work though. 0:07:40.440 --> 0:07:43.400 And if they're caught on the crossfire, why would children 0:07:43.480 --> 0:07:47.840 running away from the convoy be specifically executed. They couldn't 0:07:47.920 --> 0:07:52.520 be concerned about these kids ide and cartel gunmen from 0:07:52.520 --> 0:07:55.960 Afar and those are that's already in the reporting. So 0:07:56.000 --> 0:07:58.640 I think that in the initial assessment here there are 0:07:58.720 --> 0:08:01.280 mistakes that are being made. I'll update this as we 0:08:01.360 --> 0:08:05.200 find out, as we find out more. That seemed to 0:08:05.240 --> 0:08:07.720 me to be a first take on the issue, unless 0:08:07.720 --> 0:08:11.120 the other eyewitness accounts that we're hearing about are incorrect. 0:08:11.440 --> 0:08:14.760 It's also noteworthy that Mexican authorities were not particularly helpful 0:08:14.800 --> 0:08:17.160 in this, and that family members of those who had 0:08:17.160 --> 0:08:20.600 been murdered had to swarm the hills around this attack 0:08:20.640 --> 0:08:25.080 site themselves looking for survivors. So the Mexican government does 0:08:25.120 --> 0:08:28.520 not have this well in hand. They will also, of 0:08:28.520 --> 0:08:32.000 course not invite in at least not openly direct American 0:08:33.480 --> 0:08:36.440 kinnetic Assistant show. We say, at least not something that 0:08:36.440 --> 0:08:39.760 they'll talk about publicly. We have a real problem here. 0:08:40.880 --> 0:08:43.920 Even if let's assume for a moment that the initial 0:08:43.960 --> 0:08:46.080 reporting about this being a caught in the crossfire moment 0:08:46.200 --> 0:08:48.439 is true, well, then that would mean that the cartels 0:08:48.440 --> 0:08:52.240 are still willing to execute women and children in the 0:08:52.280 --> 0:08:57.080 midst of a gun battle with their opponents knowing that 0:08:57.120 --> 0:08:58.840 this is going to be I mean even in Mexico. 0:08:58.920 --> 0:09:00.920 This incident was going to get a lot of attention. 0:09:01.640 --> 0:09:06.040 They don't care. They're not worried about the bad press. 0:09:06.120 --> 0:09:08.520 Particularly there's been so many there have been so many 0:09:08.559 --> 0:09:12.199 murders and so many atrocities in Mexico. They have police 0:09:12.240 --> 0:09:14.680 convoys that are ambushed with I think it was recently 0:09:14.760 --> 0:09:20.280 nine officers in one instance murdered by cartel gunmen. Why 0:09:20.320 --> 0:09:23.520 does this come as a surprise to so many Americans? 0:09:23.559 --> 0:09:26.800 Why does this come as a surprise to people in 0:09:26.800 --> 0:09:32.000 this country. Well, we are led to believe by the press, 0:09:32.040 --> 0:09:35.200 by the Democratic Party, by the open borders movement here, 0:09:35.720 --> 0:09:41.800 that Mexico is not a security concern for us, when 0:09:41.800 --> 0:09:43.920 if you look at the amount of heroine that is 0:09:43.960 --> 0:09:46.040 pouring into this country as well as opioids, the number 0:09:46.040 --> 0:09:50.040 of people that are dying from those heroin and opioid overdoses, 0:09:51.160 --> 0:09:54.800 and who controls that trade, it is almost entirely the 0:09:54.920 --> 0:10:00.800 Mexican drug cartels. Mexican drug cartels are poisoning American city. 0:10:01.000 --> 0:10:04.400 Thousands and thousands of people now are dying every year, 0:10:04.440 --> 0:10:08.839 over seventy thousand in one of our particularly bad recent years. 0:10:10.240 --> 0:10:12.719 And I know that the press likes to beat up 0:10:12.720 --> 0:10:15.720 on pharmaceutical companies, and there were some pharmer companies that 0:10:16.800 --> 0:10:23.160 engaged in unethical practices for which they have now been 0:10:23.200 --> 0:10:27.720 financially annihilated, and perhaps they will also be further criminal 0:10:28.280 --> 0:10:32.079 sanction against individuals involved, including doctors prescribing drugs. But keep 0:10:32.080 --> 0:10:34.440 in mind that the way our laws work in this 0:10:34.520 --> 0:10:38.800 country right now, if someone sells opioids to a person 0:10:38.840 --> 0:10:44.880 who overdoses, they don't get charged with just selling a 0:10:45.280 --> 0:10:49.160 controlled substance. They are charged with manslaughter or murder. They 0:10:49.160 --> 0:10:53.120 are held responsible for that homicide. So, based on that 0:10:53.240 --> 0:10:56.880 very same legal approach, which is a day to day 0:10:56.920 --> 0:11:00.160 reality here in America, the drug cartels a response, well, 0:11:00.200 --> 0:11:04.200 for killing thousands and thousands of Americans every year, who 0:11:04.240 --> 0:11:06.920 knows how many. It's very tough to actually get this data. 0:11:07.000 --> 0:11:08.760 I've asked around for it. I even asked somebody, a 0:11:08.800 --> 0:11:11.560 contact of the DA say, well, it's hard to know 0:11:11.640 --> 0:11:13.959 where the drugs come from. So we know most of 0:11:14.000 --> 0:11:16.360 the drugs come from Mexico. We know about sixty to 0:11:16.400 --> 0:11:19.320 seventy thousand people are dying from these drug overdoses every year. 0:11:19.559 --> 0:11:21.520 We know Big Pharma has been put on notice, and 0:11:21.600 --> 0:11:23.720 doctors know They risk not just their license, but their 0:11:23.760 --> 0:11:27.559 freedom for decades if they overprescribe on purpose or illicitly 0:11:27.600 --> 0:11:31.840 prescribe these drugs. So what is the most likely scenario here, 0:11:31.920 --> 0:11:34.760 Let's put all of us together, that the drug cartels 0:11:34.760 --> 0:11:42.080 that are now multibillion dollars international criminal syndicates are responsible 0:11:42.160 --> 0:11:49.839 for poisoning our cities and causing just unimaginable social destruction. 0:11:51.280 --> 0:11:53.880 And yet we are told that Mexico is not a 0:11:53.960 --> 0:11:58.040 national security concern for us. We're told that the fact 0:11:58.040 --> 0:12:02.000 that there's a country right next door that has organized 0:12:02.040 --> 0:12:04.520 crime more powerful than the central government and can even 0:12:04.559 --> 0:12:08.280 outgun them in a major city is not something that 0:12:08.320 --> 0:12:11.800 we need to be worried about. Those syndicates. By the way, 0:12:11.800 --> 0:12:14.920 those cartels, they have connections, They have tentacles that stretch 0:12:14.960 --> 0:12:17.000 into every major US city and in fact a lot 0:12:17.000 --> 0:12:21.200 of mid size and small US cities too. Sometimes they 0:12:21.200 --> 0:12:23.480 try to keep a low profile here because thank god, 0:12:23.640 --> 0:12:28.520 our law enforcement has not yet been outgunned by cartels, 0:12:28.559 --> 0:12:30.880 and they still have to operate with some degree of 0:12:30.920 --> 0:12:33.960 discretion and fear of law enforcement in America. Not so 0:12:34.160 --> 0:12:38.319 in Mexico. And trust me, the history of that country. 0:12:38.360 --> 0:12:43.320 It's corruption its inability to have durable institutions that will 0:12:43.400 --> 0:12:48.120 root out corruption. That all indicates to me that what's 0:12:48.160 --> 0:12:51.199 going on there right now there are people going all 0:12:51.240 --> 0:12:53.160 the way up the chain of the Mexican government who 0:12:53.240 --> 0:12:56.640 are not who are either not willing to fight against 0:12:56.640 --> 0:13:00.320 the cartels or are on the cartel's payroll. The hotels 0:13:00.360 --> 0:13:02.319 have something on them. The cartels have threatened their family, 0:13:02.360 --> 0:13:05.680 The cartels are in some way exerting leverage on them. 0:13:06.720 --> 0:13:08.520 How is this not one of the biggest stories in 0:13:08.559 --> 0:13:10.320 the country. I ask you that question. How is it 0:13:10.360 --> 0:13:14.360 possible that we have seventy thousand or so Americans dying 0:13:14.400 --> 0:13:18.319 every year, overwhelmingly from poison being poured into our cities 0:13:18.360 --> 0:13:21.480 by our neighbor to the south, by the organized crime 0:13:21.520 --> 0:13:23.960 groups there that are killing Americans on our side and 0:13:24.040 --> 0:13:27.679 killing tens of thousands of Mexicans, people who are just 0:13:27.679 --> 0:13:31.560 caught on the crossfire day in and day out. Why 0:13:31.600 --> 0:13:35.319 can't they get control of this. Why aren't there law 0:13:35.480 --> 0:13:41.080 enforcement and judicial systems strong enough to finally root this out? 0:13:42.240 --> 0:13:44.040 These are questions that we should ask much more than 0:13:44.120 --> 0:13:46.520 we do, and it's also something that I think should 0:13:46.559 --> 0:13:49.640 get a whole lot more attention at not just in 0:13:49.679 --> 0:13:53.679 our media, but also from our own government. We've heard 0:13:53.720 --> 0:13:55.360 a lot about how we need to treat the opioid 0:13:55.360 --> 0:14:00.480 epidemic by putting more facilities in place. That's all well 0:14:00.520 --> 0:14:03.520 and good, but how about stopping the poison from entering 0:14:03.559 --> 0:14:07.280 our cities. People are not growing heroin in their backyard 0:14:07.360 --> 0:14:12.680 in Vermont or in Utah. It's coming in from south 0:14:12.720 --> 0:14:14.960 of our border, and it's being grown in Mexico. There's 0:14:14.960 --> 0:14:18.880 been an enormous shift. Heroin used to be overwhelmingly from Afghanistan. 0:14:19.200 --> 0:14:22.200 It was a big cash crop for the Taliban. UN 0:14:22.320 --> 0:14:24.600 estimates back even a decade ago or that over ninety 0:14:24.600 --> 0:14:27.760 percent of the world's heroin market was grown in essentially 0:14:27.760 --> 0:14:32.800 southern and eastern Afghanistan. Now about ninety percent of the 0:14:32.960 --> 0:14:35.080 heroin and opioids coming into this country that are on 0:14:35.120 --> 0:14:37.280 the street illegally are coming from Mexico and they are 0:14:37.320 --> 0:14:41.280 made in or grown in Mexico. Oh, but the fact 0:14:41.280 --> 0:14:43.720 that we have a porous border, the fact that we 0:14:43.800 --> 0:14:47.880 have millions and millions of illegal aliens in the country who, yes, 0:14:47.960 --> 0:14:51.040 a very small percentage of whom are involved directly in 0:14:51.120 --> 0:14:53.680 the cartel trade. But there's still a percentage of them 0:14:53.680 --> 0:14:57.520 who are, and that percentage, by the way, is responsible 0:14:57.600 --> 0:15:02.800 for thousands and thousands of US deaths. You can read 0:15:02.840 --> 0:15:06.720 Sam Canone as his book Dreamland. He goes into this 0:15:06.760 --> 0:15:09.360 in details. An LA Time Supporter's not a conservative's a liberal. 0:15:10.400 --> 0:15:13.600 The cartels made inroads into US cities at just the 0:15:13.640 --> 0:15:18.360 same time that there was this surge in prescription painkillers, 0:15:18.640 --> 0:15:22.440 and they capitalized on it and murdered countless Americans in 0:15:22.480 --> 0:15:25.800 the process, addicted people and put them in a position 0:15:25.840 --> 0:15:30.040 where the likelihood of an overdose was overwhelming. Mexico's a 0:15:30.080 --> 0:15:33.600 big problem. How much time, I ask you this, have 0:15:33.760 --> 0:15:36.800 you heard the media wailing about the Kurds in the 0:15:36.880 --> 0:15:40.560 last few weeks versus how much time have you heard 0:15:40.560 --> 0:15:44.200 them talking about the gunfight in Kuliya Khan. How much 0:15:44.200 --> 0:15:48.280 do you think they'll spend on this mass assassination, of 0:15:48.880 --> 0:15:53.440 this ambush and slaughter of nine Americans? The numbers probably 0:15:53.440 --> 0:15:57.560 going to grow in Mexico. What's a bigger threat? Who? 0:15:57.920 --> 0:16:01.440 Who has killed more Americans in the last thirty days? 0:16:02.080 --> 0:16:04.600 Cartels in Mexico, which are right on our border and 0:16:04.640 --> 0:16:07.640 can come and go as they please, largely across our border, 0:16:08.640 --> 0:16:12.400 or isis in Syria. Who should we be more concerned 0:16:12.440 --> 0:16:15.920 about A lot of people giving weighty speeches about the 0:16:15.920 --> 0:16:19.440 threat of ertiwan, What about the threat of the Sinaloa cartel, 0:16:20.240 --> 0:16:22.560 which one's more likely to be a problem for you 0:16:22.720 --> 0:16:25.080 in your community wherever you are in the country, by 0:16:25.120 --> 0:16:30.080 the way, from coastal California to Appalachia, north and south 0:16:30.120 --> 0:16:32.760 everything in between. The cartels have tentacles all over the place. 0:16:33.520 --> 0:16:35.840 People in your town, your city are dying because of 0:16:35.840 --> 0:16:38.320 what they do. Where's the media focus on this? Where's 0:16:38.360 --> 0:16:42.200 the CNN, the MSNBC town hall on cartels in the 0:16:42.200 --> 0:16:47.520 opioid epidemic? Oh? You mean that, It's almost like it 0:16:47.520 --> 0:16:50.120 doesn't fit the narrative. None of us are surprised here 0:16:50.120 --> 0:16:51.800 in the Freedom hud are we just an update on 0:16:51.840 --> 0:16:54.560 this ambush as I was taking a moment here to 0:16:54.600 --> 0:16:57.440 look at the numbers. Nine killed, seven injured. Children are 0:16:57.480 --> 0:17:01.360 now in the United States and they were part of 0:17:01.360 --> 0:17:05.560 this this Mormon sect that had left the United States 0:17:05.720 --> 0:17:10.600 decades ago and settled in Mexico because of a schism 0:17:10.640 --> 0:17:14.800 over the practice of polygamy. This group also just as 0:17:14.840 --> 0:17:16.600 a as a side note of the history of it 0:17:16.640 --> 0:17:19.399 involved at one point to George Romney. Mitt Romney's father 0:17:19.920 --> 0:17:23.480 lived in in this part of Mexico as as a 0:17:23.520 --> 0:17:26.520 member of this member of this sect. I believe he 0:17:26.560 --> 0:17:30.840 was born there. So they're also had There's some additional 0:17:30.920 --> 0:17:33.200 numbers here. Last last year I said thirty to thirty 0:17:33.240 --> 0:17:36.000 five thousands, thirty three thousand murders in Mexico last year 0:17:36.080 --> 0:17:38.960 twenty nineteen. So far, he's going to break that thought. 0:17:38.960 --> 0:17:43.040 We had about thirty five thousand murders in this country 0:17:43.280 --> 0:17:47.280 of Mexico, and the authorities are just hoping that they 0:17:47.280 --> 0:17:49.119 don't have to. I think they just don't want to 0:17:49.119 --> 0:17:51.159 lift the lid off and see what's what's underneath here 0:17:51.200 --> 0:17:52.840 in terms of the cartels. They don't want to deal 0:17:52.880 --> 0:17:54.840 with it. They're just hoping it goes away. But it's 0:17:54.840 --> 0:17:56.720 not going to go away. This is a powder keg. 0:17:56.760 --> 0:17:59.040 This could go at any point. We also now know 0:17:59.160 --> 0:18:03.159 the name of the worst blower. The whistleblower needs to 0:18:03.200 --> 0:18:07.240 come before Congress as a material witness because he worked 0:18:07.240 --> 0:18:10.280 for Joe Biden at the same time Hunter Biden was 0:18:10.320 --> 0:18:15.400 getting money from corrupt oligarchs. I say tonight to the media, 0:18:15.920 --> 0:18:20.720 do your job and print his name. Why is the 0:18:20.720 --> 0:18:26.760 whistleblower's name sacrosanct? Who said that that's the case? Who? Who? 0:18:26.960 --> 0:18:30.639 And where? Show me the statute or show me the 0:18:30.680 --> 0:18:35.439 regulation that claims that an internal federal government, federal agency 0:18:35.440 --> 0:18:40.280 whistleblower who decides to blow the whistle on something that's 0:18:40.320 --> 0:18:42.720 not even within the purview of his or her agency 0:18:43.600 --> 0:18:46.280 has a guarantee of anonymity for as long as that 0:18:46.320 --> 0:18:52.800 person wants it. Huh does an anybody want to explain 0:18:53.200 --> 0:18:56.920 that one to me? But the problem here, and we're 0:18:56.920 --> 0:18:58.760 going to keep running in circles around this, is that 0:18:58.800 --> 0:19:03.440 the process is largely whatever the Democrats decide, because they're 0:19:03.480 --> 0:19:05.199 in the majority of the House. Whatever they decide the 0:19:05.200 --> 0:19:07.399 process is, that's what it will be. So they'll make 0:19:07.400 --> 0:19:10.760 it as fair as unfair as they want and claim 0:19:10.800 --> 0:19:12.840 that they have the power for this process to be 0:19:12.920 --> 0:19:15.760 what it is. And Republicans are right to point out 0:19:15.840 --> 0:19:19.680 some of the glaring imbalances and all this, but it's 0:19:19.680 --> 0:19:21.919 not going to change anything. Ultimately, it's going to continue 0:19:21.920 --> 0:19:24.679 to be more or less what it is, which is 0:19:24.720 --> 0:19:30.080 a get Trump, destroy Trump, do what you can see 0:19:30.200 --> 0:19:31.760 just they're really just in a lot of ways shaking 0:19:31.760 --> 0:19:33.400 the tree to see what falls out. I mean, they 0:19:33.440 --> 0:19:36.200 don't even know what the end result of this whole 0:19:36.200 --> 0:19:38.520 impeachment process will be. They just know that it's bad 0:19:38.560 --> 0:19:41.359 for the president, and as we know from dealing with 0:19:41.359 --> 0:19:45.000 the left, anything that is bad for the president must 0:19:45.000 --> 0:19:48.800 be good. That's their approach, that's how they see all 0:19:48.840 --> 0:19:53.080 of this. Rand Paul also went a little further here, 0:19:53.119 --> 0:19:56.600 and this is something and I'm just noting that a 0:19:56.640 --> 0:19:58.760 lot of what you're here now from the administration, from 0:19:58.800 --> 0:20:01.679 officials defending it, is where the buckster was in the beginning, 0:20:01.680 --> 0:20:04.199 which is we already know Hunter Biden is what he 0:20:04.240 --> 0:20:06.920 did is unethical and gross. We already know that this 0:20:07.040 --> 0:20:09.000 was pay to play. It might not have been illegal, 0:20:09.040 --> 0:20:12.000 but the appearance of corruption is clearly there. That's that's 0:20:12.040 --> 0:20:14.960 in the facts, which also means that the basis for 0:20:15.000 --> 0:20:17.720 an investigation is there, Which means that the president of 0:20:17.760 --> 0:20:20.080 the United States asking a foreign counterpart to look into 0:20:20.119 --> 0:20:24.880 something is completely within his purview. Is it bare knuckle politics? Yeah? 0:20:25.160 --> 0:20:27.479 Is Trump allowed to do that in response to what 0:20:27.480 --> 0:20:31.440 they're doing to him? Yes, in my opinion, sure, people 0:20:31.480 --> 0:20:33.359 disagree with me. You know what they can do vote 0:20:33.359 --> 0:20:36.920 against him. That's what this is. All a political question. 0:20:37.000 --> 0:20:42.320 Democrats are trying to morphit into some legalistic process. But 0:20:42.400 --> 0:20:44.480 it's not a legal process. It's not legal. It's not 0:20:44.560 --> 0:20:51.800 a criminal justice proceeding. But people got all into this 0:20:51.880 --> 0:20:53.440 quid pro quote and all the stuff. I'm like, look, 0:20:53.520 --> 0:20:54.919 I don't even see what's wrong with it. You can 0:20:54.960 --> 0:20:57.080 go back, go to tape, listen to earlier week we 0:20:57.160 --> 0:21:00.679 got him the episodes on iTunes on the iHeart Up, 0:21:00.680 --> 0:21:03.000 which you can subscribe to. But go back, listen to 0:21:03.040 --> 0:21:04.720 what I was saying when the first thing, when this broke. 0:21:05.440 --> 0:21:07.400 You'll see, yes, look, I don't understand what the big 0:21:07.400 --> 0:21:10.040 problem is here. And some conservatives that I really like, 0:21:10.119 --> 0:21:12.280 we're very worried about it at first, but I know 0:21:12.320 --> 0:21:14.760 this game before I know how, I know how the 0:21:14.920 --> 0:21:18.320 Russia collusion hoax was run. They get all frenzied, they 0:21:18.359 --> 0:21:21.480 get all fired up about how this is the worst 0:21:21.480 --> 0:21:24.040 thing that anyone's ever done. It's worse than Nixon. And 0:21:24.080 --> 0:21:25.439 then when you look at it and you deal with 0:21:25.480 --> 0:21:29.280 the facts, you say, but hold on a second, why 0:21:29.320 --> 0:21:33.400 exactly is this worse than Nixon? Why is this worse 0:21:33.440 --> 0:21:36.960 than Watergate? It's always important to take a breath when 0:21:37.000 --> 0:21:40.480 liberals tell you that the republic is about to sink 0:21:40.520 --> 0:21:43.160 and we're all doomed. That's when it's worthwhile the step 0:21:43.200 --> 0:21:45.119 outside gets some fresh air and think, do I trust 0:21:45.160 --> 0:21:47.360 these people? The answer is no. So since I don't 0:21:47.359 --> 0:21:48.960 trust them, should to listen to them about this? The 0:21:49.000 --> 0:21:56.400 answer is also no. Rant Paul understands that the Hunter 0:21:56.480 --> 0:21:59.359 Biden thing. Democrats are sensitive about it because it looks gross. 0:21:59.440 --> 0:22:01.119 There's no question about a play club five. If you 0:22:01.160 --> 0:22:06.320 would hunter Biden made fifty thousand dollars a month. That's 0:22:06.359 --> 0:22:09.879 the definition of corruption. We know he got it only 0:22:09.920 --> 0:22:13.399 because of his family connections. And I say to my colleagues, 0:22:14.000 --> 0:22:17.560 if shifty Shift will not let Hunter Biden come, and 0:22:17.640 --> 0:22:21.119 if you will not bring the whistleblower for every Republican 0:22:21.160 --> 0:22:23.760 in Congress should take a walk and say this is 0:22:23.800 --> 0:22:29.080 a farce. I think that at some point Republican nullification 0:22:29.119 --> 0:22:32.360 of the process, or at least refusal to behave or 0:22:31.800 --> 0:22:35.600 to behave maybe to be a part of the process. 0:22:35.760 --> 0:22:38.960 That's what this is heading to. I do think at 0:22:39.000 --> 0:22:41.240 some point Republicans should probably just say we're not gonna 0:22:41.400 --> 0:22:42.840 We're not gonna do this, We're not gonna show up 0:22:42.840 --> 0:22:44.600 what are they gonna They're gonna send a sergeant in 0:22:44.680 --> 0:22:46.639 arms to arrest all the Republicans for not wanting to 0:22:46.640 --> 0:22:55.560 sit through Adam shifts bizarre inquisition Hunter Biden, which we 0:22:55.680 --> 0:22:58.840 all have to goes back to the Democrat debate where 0:22:58.880 --> 0:23:02.440 Anderson Cooper's like whatever his question was, it's basically, you know, hey, 0:23:02.600 --> 0:23:05.720 I'm going to ask you about Ukraine, Joe Biden, but 0:23:05.800 --> 0:23:07.600 I'm also going to make sure that there's no evidence 0:23:07.640 --> 0:23:10.080 against you and there's no evidence you didn't anything wrong, 0:23:10.119 --> 0:23:13.680 And now I'm gonna ask my question. Well, I mean 0:23:13.720 --> 0:23:16.600 that all depends on what the meaning of wrong is, 0:23:17.720 --> 0:23:21.000 because to me, it is quite clearly wrong for someone 0:23:21.000 --> 0:23:22.959 to get fifty thousand dollars a month when their fathers 0:23:23.000 --> 0:23:27.240 on board. Because remember, even if see this is if 0:23:27.280 --> 0:23:29.560 you really think this through, you understand why the Democrats 0:23:29.560 --> 0:23:32.240 are so sensitive about this. Let's say for a second 0:23:32.240 --> 0:23:34.360 that what Hunter and Joe Biden have told us all 0:23:34.400 --> 0:23:37.919 along is true, which is a leap I will have 0:23:38.000 --> 0:23:39.760 you know that I'm not willing to make. But but 0:23:39.880 --> 0:23:44.520 let's just say that they made this or they did 0:23:44.560 --> 0:23:49.000 not discuss anything Ukraine related, and that Hunter never even 0:23:49.119 --> 0:23:51.680 promised the Ukrainians who were sending him these big checks 0:23:51.720 --> 0:23:56.400 every month that he was going to be their guy 0:23:57.040 --> 0:24:00.960
