1 00:00:00,480 --> 00:00:02,760 Speaker 1: On this episode of New World. I think that we 2 00:00:02,840 --> 00:00:06,920 Speaker 1: have learned since this pandemic started, but really before that 3 00:00:06,920 --> 00:00:08,800 Speaker 1: that there's very little that we can trust that comes 4 00:00:08,800 --> 00:00:11,960 Speaker 1: out of Donald Trump's While this selection in November, there's 5 00:00:11,960 --> 00:00:14,720 Speaker 1: going to be about our literally our health and whether 6 00:00:14,760 --> 00:00:18,640 Speaker 1: we live or die than you and my pronouns are she, 7 00:00:18,800 --> 00:00:21,040 Speaker 1: her and hers. So I decided I was going to 8 00:00:21,120 --> 00:00:24,680 Speaker 1: start prosecuting parents for truancy. What else do we know 9 00:00:24,680 --> 00:00:27,800 Speaker 1: about this population eighteenth to twenty four They are stupid, 10 00:00:28,200 --> 00:00:32,120 Speaker 1: They make really bad decisions. Well, I mean I would 11 00:00:32,159 --> 00:00:35,800 Speaker 1: just say, hey, Joe, it said us saying though we can't, 12 00:00:35,880 --> 00:00:40,440 Speaker 1: let's say yes we can. We have to have a 13 00:00:40,440 --> 00:00:46,920 Speaker 1: buyback program. And I support a mandatory buyback program, which 14 00:00:46,960 --> 00:00:51,760 Speaker 1: tweet tweets about. So I will say this about that case. 15 00:00:51,880 --> 00:00:55,640 Speaker 1: I think that the facts are still unfolding. Oh this 16 00:00:55,840 --> 00:00:58,280 Speaker 1: is new due to the virus. I'm recording from home, 17 00:00:58,640 --> 00:01:01,280 Speaker 1: so you may notice a different friends in audio quality. 18 00:01:04,240 --> 00:01:08,959 Speaker 1: Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden was born November twentieth, nineteen 19 00:01:09,040 --> 00:01:13,400 Speaker 1: forty two. If elected president, he will turn seventy eight 20 00:01:13,959 --> 00:01:16,679 Speaker 1: in the month of November, and he'll be the oldest 21 00:01:16,720 --> 00:01:22,240 Speaker 1: elected president in the United States history. Now, historically, voters 22 00:01:22,280 --> 00:01:25,200 Speaker 1: don't spend a lot of time on the vice presidential 23 00:01:25,240 --> 00:01:30,200 Speaker 1: candidate when voting for president. But given Vice President Joe 24 00:01:30,240 --> 00:01:34,880 Speaker 1: Biden's age, I think it's entirely possible that Kamala Harris, 25 00:01:35,480 --> 00:01:39,319 Speaker 1: his vice presidential nominee, could take office before his terms. 26 00:01:40,400 --> 00:01:42,720 Speaker 1: And I wanted to share with you today some of 27 00:01:42,920 --> 00:01:47,039 Speaker 1: Senator harris Is more liberal and left statements, and frankly, 28 00:01:47,440 --> 00:01:51,880 Speaker 1: some of her more opportunistic statements. I think you'll find, 29 00:01:51,920 --> 00:01:55,240 Speaker 1: as I did, she's much more left leaning than Joe Biden, 30 00:01:55,600 --> 00:02:00,640 Speaker 1: and more left leaning, almost radical than any of us realized. 31 00:02:01,200 --> 00:02:04,120 Speaker 1: But her beliefs are clear in her statements and have 32 00:02:04,280 --> 00:02:08,000 Speaker 1: been expressed in her own words. And that's why we're 33 00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:10,360 Speaker 1: going to approach this by sharing with you a context 34 00:02:10,680 --> 00:02:13,440 Speaker 1: and letting you listen to her so you can make 35 00:02:13,520 --> 00:02:24,960 Speaker 1: up your own mind. I was really struck when the 36 00:02:25,080 --> 00:02:28,920 Speaker 1: Vice president chose Kamala Harris to be his running mate, 37 00:02:29,360 --> 00:02:32,680 Speaker 1: because I thought she was a very bad candidate, and 38 00:02:32,760 --> 00:02:36,400 Speaker 1: I thought that her track record, starting at fifteen percent 39 00:02:36,520 --> 00:02:41,119 Speaker 1: support in Midsummer last year, dropping to three or four 40 00:02:41,160 --> 00:02:43,920 Speaker 1: percent support before she dropped out of the race. It 41 00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:46,320 Speaker 1: was a signal that she might not have been the 42 00:02:46,320 --> 00:02:49,840 Speaker 1: best possible choice. And then the fact is, while she 43 00:02:50,040 --> 00:02:53,839 Speaker 1: is ostensibly a woman of color, that didn't make her 44 00:02:54,200 --> 00:02:58,360 Speaker 1: desirable for the black community. When she dropped out, Joe 45 00:02:58,400 --> 00:03:03,160 Speaker 1: Biden had eight times as many black supporters as she did, 46 00:03:03,760 --> 00:03:06,600 Speaker 1: and in fact, in her home state, she was running 47 00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:10,240 Speaker 1: fourth when she dropped out. So it's a little strange 48 00:03:10,240 --> 00:03:12,520 Speaker 1: to me that she was picked. But I think it 49 00:03:12,639 --> 00:03:17,840 Speaker 1: is very clear when he picked her that Vice President 50 00:03:17,880 --> 00:03:21,240 Speaker 1: Biden was making a clear pitch to the left and 51 00:03:21,320 --> 00:03:24,480 Speaker 1: trying to indicate to them that he was reliably on 52 00:03:24,480 --> 00:03:29,160 Speaker 1: the left. One of the key issues facing America is 53 00:03:29,200 --> 00:03:34,880 Speaker 1: the issue of defunding the police, or defending the police, 54 00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:39,440 Speaker 1: supporting the importance of law and order, or undermining law 55 00:03:39,440 --> 00:03:42,800 Speaker 1: and order. And on this issue, there's no question that 56 00:03:42,880 --> 00:03:47,400 Speaker 1: Kamala Harris has been consistently on the left, undermining the 57 00:03:47,440 --> 00:03:51,680 Speaker 1: process of the law and defunding the police. Take for example, 58 00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:56,000 Speaker 1: on ABC Good Morning America on June ninth this year, 59 00:03:56,520 --> 00:04:00,160 Speaker 1: she was asked, so does that mean you support proposals 60 00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:03,480 Speaker 1: like well, we've seen in Los Angeles mayor Eric Garcity 61 00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:06,960 Speaker 1: saying take some of the money from policing about one 62 00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:10,760 Speaker 1: hundred and fifty million dollars to invest in health initiatives, 63 00:04:11,040 --> 00:04:15,320 Speaker 1: training initiatores for you and listen carefully to what she says. 64 00:04:15,760 --> 00:04:19,400 Speaker 1: He goes In the end, she supports taking one hundred 65 00:04:19,400 --> 00:04:23,160 Speaker 1: and fifty million dollars from the police. Here's what Senator 66 00:04:23,200 --> 00:04:27,680 Speaker 1: Harris said. I support investing in communities so that they 67 00:04:27,800 --> 00:04:32,640 Speaker 1: become more healthy and therefore more safe. Right now, what 68 00:04:32,680 --> 00:04:36,240 Speaker 1: we're seeing in America as many cities spend over one 69 00:04:36,360 --> 00:04:40,680 Speaker 1: third of their entire city budget on policing, but meanwhile, 70 00:04:40,720 --> 00:04:44,400 Speaker 1: we've been defunding public schools for years in America. We've 71 00:04:44,440 --> 00:04:47,120 Speaker 1: got to re examine what we're doing with American taxpayer 72 00:04:47,160 --> 00:04:49,720 Speaker 1: dollars and ask the question, are we getting the right 73 00:04:49,760 --> 00:04:53,080 Speaker 1: return on our investment? Are we actually creating healthy and 74 00:04:53,160 --> 00:04:57,240 Speaker 1: safe communities? And that's a legitimate conversation, and it requires 75 00:04:57,279 --> 00:05:01,080 Speaker 1: a really critical evaluation. I plot Eric Arceti for doing 76 00:05:01,120 --> 00:05:04,600 Speaker 1: what he's done. I think one of the most sobering 77 00:05:05,520 --> 00:05:09,279 Speaker 1: comments that Senator Harris made was on Stephen Colbert on 78 00:05:09,360 --> 00:05:13,560 Speaker 1: June eighteenth, twenty twenty. We're faced with a real challenge 79 00:05:14,120 --> 00:05:18,360 Speaker 1: of violence in the streets. We're faced with activists from Antifa, 80 00:05:18,680 --> 00:05:23,000 Speaker 1: many of whom cross state lines. In Kenosha, Wisconsin, they 81 00:05:23,040 --> 00:05:26,000 Speaker 1: were over half the people they arrested were from out 82 00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:28,440 Speaker 1: of the city. They were, in fact, from forty four 83 00:05:28,520 --> 00:05:32,320 Speaker 1: different cities. It's very clear, as you'll hear in a moment, 84 00:05:32,720 --> 00:05:37,520 Speaker 1: the Senator Harris is comfortable with the violence, and she's 85 00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:42,120 Speaker 1: comfortable allowing it to happen. And so just listen carefully 86 00:05:42,120 --> 00:05:45,520 Speaker 1: to what she said and think about the notion that 87 00:05:45,520 --> 00:05:47,960 Speaker 1: this is a person who claims to have been a prosecutor, 88 00:05:48,279 --> 00:05:50,760 Speaker 1: but who in fact clearly is on the side of 89 00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:55,279 Speaker 1: the criminals and is clearly comfortable suggesting that the violence 90 00:05:55,360 --> 00:05:58,800 Speaker 1: is going to continue. As she puts it, they are 91 00:05:58,880 --> 00:06:01,839 Speaker 1: not going to stop. They're not going to stop before 92 00:06:01,880 --> 00:06:04,560 Speaker 1: election day in November, and they're not going to stop 93 00:06:04,600 --> 00:06:08,359 Speaker 1: after election day. So if you want to candidate who's 94 00:06:08,400 --> 00:06:12,279 Speaker 1: going to stop the violence and stop the looting, the 95 00:06:12,320 --> 00:06:14,640 Speaker 1: only choice is going to be Donald Trump. But don't 96 00:06:14,680 --> 00:06:17,880 Speaker 1: take my word for it. Listen to the conversation between 97 00:06:17,920 --> 00:06:21,560 Speaker 1: Senator Harris and Stephen Colbert. They're not going to stop, 98 00:06:21,600 --> 00:06:24,599 Speaker 1: and that's they're not. This is a movement. I'm telling you, 99 00:06:24,800 --> 00:06:28,880 Speaker 1: they're not going to stop. And everyone beware because they're 100 00:06:28,920 --> 00:06:30,719 Speaker 1: not going to stop. It is gonna They're not going 101 00:06:30,760 --> 00:06:33,080 Speaker 1: to stop before election day in November, and they're not 102 00:06:33,080 --> 00:06:35,800 Speaker 1: going to stop after election day. And that should be 103 00:06:35,920 --> 00:06:38,719 Speaker 1: everyone should take note of that on both levels, that 104 00:06:38,880 --> 00:06:40,720 Speaker 1: this isn't They're not going to let up, and they 105 00:06:40,800 --> 00:06:44,200 Speaker 1: should not and we should not. One of the most 106 00:06:44,200 --> 00:06:48,560 Speaker 1: important developments which has led to dramatically more crime, dramatically 107 00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:52,360 Speaker 1: more violence, dramatically more murders. In New York City, for example, 108 00:06:52,920 --> 00:06:57,280 Speaker 1: shootings were up one hundred and sixty five percent in 109 00:06:57,320 --> 00:07:02,320 Speaker 1: August of twenty twenty compared to August twenty nineteen, and 110 00:07:02,440 --> 00:07:06,280 Speaker 1: a major part of that is the George Soros campaign 111 00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:11,840 Speaker 1: spending millions of dollars to elect prosecutors who are pro 112 00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:15,559 Speaker 1: criminal and anti police. Now, the term on the left 113 00:07:15,680 --> 00:07:20,640 Speaker 1: is that they are somehow progressive, but progressive remember means 114 00:07:20,920 --> 00:07:24,360 Speaker 1: they're willing to break the law, refused to enforce the 115 00:07:24,440 --> 00:07:27,440 Speaker 1: laws that has written, turn their back on the police, 116 00:07:27,960 --> 00:07:31,840 Speaker 1: and release criminals back onto the street. One of the 117 00:07:31,840 --> 00:07:36,320 Speaker 1: earliest examples of this from Senator Harris was on May seventeen, 118 00:07:36,440 --> 00:07:42,160 Speaker 1: twenty seventeen, when she tweeted quote, as I said yesterday 119 00:07:42,640 --> 00:07:48,160 Speaker 1: progressive prosecutors are key to criminal justice reform like rolling 120 00:07:48,200 --> 00:07:52,960 Speaker 1: back mass incarceration and ending cash bail. She was commenting 121 00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:57,160 Speaker 1: on the election of Philadelphia District Attorney Larry Krasner, who 122 00:07:57,200 --> 00:07:59,920 Speaker 1: is a total radical on these issues. And by the way, 123 00:08:00,440 --> 00:08:05,440 Speaker 1: remember ending cash bail means that the criminal is dropped 124 00:08:05,480 --> 00:08:09,040 Speaker 1: off by the police at the precinct station, they are registered, 125 00:08:09,320 --> 00:08:11,280 Speaker 1: and a few hours later they're back on the street 126 00:08:11,600 --> 00:08:14,360 Speaker 1: because they don't have to post bail. I think it's 127 00:08:14,400 --> 00:08:19,800 Speaker 1: also important to recognize that she is completely committed to 128 00:08:19,880 --> 00:08:22,080 Speaker 1: this concept, and I want you to hear her voice. 129 00:08:22,560 --> 00:08:28,040 Speaker 1: Remember every time she uses progressive, that means pro criminal 130 00:08:28,320 --> 00:08:32,480 Speaker 1: and anti police. This is Kamala Harris at the Center 131 00:08:32,520 --> 00:08:37,920 Speaker 1: for Progressive Ideas conference on May sixteenth, twenty seventeen. I 132 00:08:37,960 --> 00:08:43,880 Speaker 1: believe we need to look locally and elect progressive prosecutors 133 00:08:43,920 --> 00:08:48,240 Speaker 1: because the vast majority of prosecutions occur at the state 134 00:08:48,280 --> 00:08:52,760 Speaker 1: and local level. There are leaders among us like Kim 135 00:08:52,880 --> 00:08:58,040 Speaker 1: Fox from Cook County who grew up in public housing 136 00:08:58,120 --> 00:09:00,720 Speaker 1: and know as we need a more bounds approach to 137 00:09:00,760 --> 00:09:04,320 Speaker 1: criminal justice. There are leaders like John Chisholm in the 138 00:09:04,400 --> 00:09:08,520 Speaker 1: Milwaukee DA's office, who was working to reduce prison population 139 00:09:09,000 --> 00:09:13,079 Speaker 1: while maintaining public safety. There are leaders like Kim Ogg, 140 00:09:13,800 --> 00:09:17,920 Speaker 1: the DA in Harris County, Texas, who is saving taxpayers 141 00:09:18,040 --> 00:09:21,800 Speaker 1: ten million dollars a year by sending people caught with 142 00:09:21,840 --> 00:09:25,200 Speaker 1: a small amount of marijuana to a decision making class 143 00:09:25,240 --> 00:09:30,520 Speaker 1: instead of jail. Right, So, even as we fight Jeff 144 00:09:30,600 --> 00:09:34,360 Speaker 1: Sessions every step of the way here in DC, we 145 00:09:34,400 --> 00:09:39,360 Speaker 1: should see these reformers and support them as innovators who 146 00:09:39,400 --> 00:09:42,440 Speaker 1: were showing us what is possible. And I believe this 147 00:09:42,520 --> 00:09:45,719 Speaker 1: is the time that we look in the mirror and 148 00:09:45,800 --> 00:09:48,280 Speaker 1: ask who we are as a country on this issue 149 00:09:48,280 --> 00:09:52,760 Speaker 1: of drug addiction. Harris's radicalism was so deep that she 150 00:09:53,720 --> 00:10:00,120 Speaker 1: literally uses anti American phrases and anti American concepts. So 151 00:10:00,280 --> 00:10:03,559 Speaker 1: the hearing of the Southern Homeland Security and Governorial First 152 00:10:03,559 --> 00:10:09,360 Speaker 1: Committee on the United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement Agency, 153 00:10:10,080 --> 00:10:16,960 Speaker 1: she took a very radical position, suggesting that the very 154 00:10:17,080 --> 00:10:21,280 Speaker 1: agency which is supposed to protect us from millions of 155 00:10:21,280 --> 00:10:26,040 Speaker 1: illegal immigrants was itself a problem and was the core 156 00:10:26,160 --> 00:10:28,880 Speaker 1: an example of what the difficulties are. But listen to 157 00:10:28,920 --> 00:10:33,120 Speaker 1: Harris's description about the statement you made describing the Democratic 158 00:10:33,200 --> 00:10:38,440 Speaker 1: Party as liberal critic or neo klanist, which was I 159 00:10:38,440 --> 00:10:41,240 Speaker 1: think the assumption there was that you were comparing it 160 00:10:41,280 --> 00:10:45,920 Speaker 1: to the ku Ku klux Klan, klu klux Klan, the KKK. 161 00:10:46,880 --> 00:10:51,560 Speaker 1: So you said, in response to his question, you're sorry 162 00:10:51,559 --> 00:10:55,960 Speaker 1: because the words caused offense. So would you not be 163 00:10:56,080 --> 00:10:59,240 Speaker 1: sorry if no one was offended by your words? Oh? 164 00:10:59,280 --> 00:11:02,360 Speaker 1: It was wrong to do? Why was it wrong because 165 00:11:02,360 --> 00:11:06,040 Speaker 1: those are offensive words? Why are they offensive because they 166 00:11:06,080 --> 00:11:10,160 Speaker 1: have history in this country? And I honestly did not 167 00:11:10,320 --> 00:11:12,920 Speaker 1: mean it that way, But please talk about the history. 168 00:11:13,240 --> 00:11:17,800 Speaker 1: What is the history that would then make those words wrong. Well, 169 00:11:17,880 --> 00:11:21,520 Speaker 1: the clan was what we would call today a domestic 170 00:11:21,600 --> 00:11:26,560 Speaker 1: terrorist group. Why why would we call them domestic terrorist group? 171 00:11:26,960 --> 00:11:30,400 Speaker 1: Because they tried to use fear and force to change 172 00:11:30,400 --> 00:11:33,640 Speaker 1: political environment? And what was the motivation for the use 173 00:11:33,679 --> 00:11:36,360 Speaker 1: of fear and force based on race and ethnicity? Right? 174 00:11:37,520 --> 00:11:42,920 Speaker 1: Are you aware of the perception of many about how 175 00:11:43,080 --> 00:11:47,040 Speaker 1: the power and the discretion at ice as being used 176 00:11:47,160 --> 00:11:50,760 Speaker 1: to enforce the laws and do you see any parallels. 177 00:11:51,080 --> 00:11:53,959 Speaker 1: I do not see any parallels between I'm talking abouts 178 00:11:54,520 --> 00:11:57,360 Speaker 1: and agents. I'm talking about perception. I do not see 179 00:11:57,360 --> 00:12:01,160 Speaker 1: a parallel between what is constitutionally mandates as it relates 180 00:12:01,200 --> 00:12:03,160 Speaker 1: in forcing the law. Are you aware that there's a 181 00:12:03,320 --> 00:12:06,800 Speaker 1: perception Are you aware that there's a perception ICE in 182 00:12:06,840 --> 00:12:09,800 Speaker 1: the same category as the KKK. Is that where you're 183 00:12:09,800 --> 00:12:12,600 Speaker 1: asking me? No, I'm very specific about what I'm asking. 184 00:12:12,679 --> 00:12:16,679 Speaker 1: Are you aware of a perception that the way that 185 00:12:16,880 --> 00:12:21,240 Speaker 1: the discretion? I'm not finished. I see none. I'm not finished. 186 00:12:21,760 --> 00:12:25,600 Speaker 1: I'm not finished. I do want to advocate for the workforce, 187 00:12:27,000 --> 00:12:29,880 Speaker 1: the vital public safety mission that they have to protect 188 00:12:29,920 --> 00:12:32,240 Speaker 1: the homeland, and I think more people need to know 189 00:12:32,320 --> 00:12:35,320 Speaker 1: how valuable they are to the society. So I agree 190 00:12:35,360 --> 00:12:38,760 Speaker 1: with you on that. Not only is she opposed to 191 00:12:39,640 --> 00:12:45,000 Speaker 1: the US government institution designed to protect us from legal immigration, 192 00:12:45,800 --> 00:12:51,040 Speaker 1: she favors people who get here illegally having universal access 193 00:12:51,120 --> 00:12:55,400 Speaker 1: to medicare Listen to this conversation with Jake Tapper at 194 00:12:55,440 --> 00:12:59,920 Speaker 1: CNN and here for yourself. Her commitment that basically would 195 00:13:00,320 --> 00:13:05,240 Speaker 1: illegal immigrants to have full access to public safety, public education, 196 00:13:05,640 --> 00:13:10,000 Speaker 1: and public health. The bill also says, quote, every individual 197 00:13:10,040 --> 00:13:12,360 Speaker 1: who is a resident of the United States is entitled 198 00:13:12,360 --> 00:13:15,199 Speaker 1: to benefits for healthcare services under this act. Not every 199 00:13:15,240 --> 00:13:18,079 Speaker 1: individual who's a citizen, but every individual who's a resident. 200 00:13:18,600 --> 00:13:22,680 Speaker 1: So you support giving universal healthcare medicare for all to 201 00:13:22,679 --> 00:13:25,080 Speaker 1: people who are in this country illegally. Let me just 202 00:13:25,160 --> 00:13:28,240 Speaker 1: be very clear about this. I am opposed to any 203 00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:32,480 Speaker 1: policy that wouldn't deny in our country any human being 204 00:13:33,240 --> 00:13:38,440 Speaker 1: from access to public safety, public education, or public health 205 00:13:38,760 --> 00:13:43,800 Speaker 1: period would she wanted the view. Senator Harris was even 206 00:13:43,880 --> 00:13:48,440 Speaker 1: more radical in her position. She basically comes across saying 207 00:13:48,960 --> 00:13:51,839 Speaker 1: that she wants a secure border as long as we 208 00:13:51,920 --> 00:13:55,080 Speaker 1: don't have a secure border, and that she would like 209 00:13:55,160 --> 00:13:59,120 Speaker 1: to treat people who are quote undocumented and who crossed 210 00:13:59,200 --> 00:14:01,920 Speaker 1: the border in a way which has not involved them 211 00:14:02,040 --> 00:14:05,880 Speaker 1: having broken the law. Listen to this conversation from the view, 212 00:14:06,080 --> 00:14:08,600 Speaker 1: you're for decriminalizing border crossings. You're one of the people 213 00:14:08,600 --> 00:14:11,079 Speaker 1: at working hands at the debate. Do you agree with 214 00:14:11,120 --> 00:14:13,440 Speaker 1: AOC that we should get rid of DHS altogether. That 215 00:14:13,559 --> 00:14:16,640 Speaker 1: is not correct. I am not in favor of decriminalizing 216 00:14:18,040 --> 00:14:20,880 Speaker 1: or not having consequence for it. We have to keep 217 00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:22,760 Speaker 1: let me just be very clear, we have to have 218 00:14:23,080 --> 00:14:25,760 Speaker 1: a secure border. But I am in favor of saying 219 00:14:25,760 --> 00:14:28,320 Speaker 1: that we're not going to treat people who are undocumented 220 00:14:28,320 --> 00:14:30,800 Speaker 1: across the border as criminals. That's correct, That is correct, 221 00:14:31,200 --> 00:14:33,520 Speaker 1: And what we've got to do is we cannot have 222 00:14:33,920 --> 00:14:37,520 Speaker 1: any more policy like we have under this current president 223 00:14:37,800 --> 00:14:40,720 Speaker 1: that is about in humane conduct, that is about putting 224 00:14:40,720 --> 00:14:43,160 Speaker 1: babies in cages, and it is about separating children from 225 00:14:43,200 --> 00:14:45,760 Speaker 1: their parents. And we have got to have policy that 226 00:14:45,840 --> 00:14:48,600 Speaker 1: is about passing comprehensive immigration on form with a pathway 227 00:14:48,640 --> 00:14:52,480 Speaker 1: towards citizenship. Shutting down these private slapsids me though, because 228 00:14:52,520 --> 00:14:55,080 Speaker 1: I do find it confusing. I believe that someone crosses 229 00:14:55,120 --> 00:14:57,600 Speaker 1: over the border is illegally. It is illegal, and would 230 00:14:57,720 --> 00:15:00,080 Speaker 1: you would decriminalize it. I would not make it a 231 00:15:00,200 --> 00:15:04,760 Speaker 1: crime punishable by jail. It should be a civil enforcement issue, 232 00:15:04,760 --> 00:15:25,080 Speaker 1: but not a criminal enforcement issue. Okay. Now, well, Senator 233 00:15:25,120 --> 00:15:29,320 Speaker 1: Harris has been busy offering Medicare to illegal immigrants. She 234 00:15:29,400 --> 00:15:32,640 Speaker 1: wants to take away private insurance for the rest of us, 235 00:15:33,360 --> 00:15:36,600 Speaker 1: and I think it's very important to understand how radical 236 00:15:36,680 --> 00:15:40,240 Speaker 1: she is in wanting to do this. As a CNN 237 00:15:40,360 --> 00:15:44,080 Speaker 1: town hall meeting in Iowa, she commented on the whole 238 00:15:44,080 --> 00:15:48,840 Speaker 1: concept of eliminating private insurance. You support the Medicare for 239 00:15:48,880 --> 00:15:51,760 Speaker 1: All bill, I think initially co sponsored by Senator Bernie Sanders. 240 00:15:51,800 --> 00:15:54,800 Speaker 1: You're also a cospondor. I believe it will totally eliminate 241 00:15:54,800 --> 00:15:59,160 Speaker 1: private insurance. So for people out there who like their insurance, 242 00:16:00,000 --> 00:16:02,440 Speaker 1: they don't get to keep it. Well, the listen. The 243 00:16:02,480 --> 00:16:05,840 Speaker 1: idea is that everyone gets access to medical care and 244 00:16:06,040 --> 00:16:08,440 Speaker 1: you don't have to go through the process of going 245 00:16:08,440 --> 00:16:11,360 Speaker 1: through an insurance company, having them give you approval, going 246 00:16:11,360 --> 00:16:13,840 Speaker 1: through the paperwork, all of the delay that may require. 247 00:16:14,000 --> 00:16:16,440 Speaker 1: Who of us has not had that situation where you 248 00:16:16,520 --> 00:16:18,560 Speaker 1: got to wait for approval and the doctor says, well, 249 00:16:18,760 --> 00:16:20,560 Speaker 1: I don't know if your insurance company is going to 250 00:16:20,600 --> 00:16:23,520 Speaker 1: cover this. Let's eliminate all of that. Let's move on, 251 00:16:24,040 --> 00:16:26,280 Speaker 1: and she doubled down. It wasn't just one time in 252 00:16:26,360 --> 00:16:30,280 Speaker 1: Iowa on a sh In an interview after the Detroit debate, 253 00:16:30,760 --> 00:16:36,360 Speaker 1: she said, my plan will separate your healthcare from your employer, 254 00:16:36,760 --> 00:16:39,760 Speaker 1: meaning your employer will no longer dictate the kind of 255 00:16:39,760 --> 00:16:44,240 Speaker 1: healthcare you receive. Under my plan of Medicare for all, 256 00:16:44,480 --> 00:16:48,320 Speaker 1: private insurance companies will be able to provide coverage if 257 00:16:48,360 --> 00:16:52,080 Speaker 1: they play by our rules. And therefore, what that means, 258 00:16:52,160 --> 00:16:55,280 Speaker 1: in a very important way, is that you don't have 259 00:16:55,440 --> 00:16:59,240 Speaker 1: to be wed to your employer to keep the insurance 260 00:16:59,360 --> 00:17:02,680 Speaker 1: you like and that you need. You know, listen, the 261 00:17:02,680 --> 00:17:06,080 Speaker 1: reality of America today is it is no longer the 262 00:17:06,160 --> 00:17:08,480 Speaker 1: case that people come out of high school or college, 263 00:17:08,560 --> 00:17:10,920 Speaker 1: they go and they work one place and they retire there. 264 00:17:11,119 --> 00:17:13,600 Speaker 1: That's no longer the reality in America. You look at 265 00:17:13,600 --> 00:17:16,200 Speaker 1: the fact, I know you had andre ag On earlier. 266 00:17:16,359 --> 00:17:18,639 Speaker 1: Over the next fifteen years, up to forty percent of 267 00:17:18,640 --> 00:17:21,080 Speaker 1: the jobs that currently exist will no longer exist. We 268 00:17:21,240 --> 00:17:25,879 Speaker 1: have to decouple healthcare from employers because there are so 269 00:17:25,920 --> 00:17:28,840 Speaker 1: many people I'm meeting John who are afraid to leave 270 00:17:28,840 --> 00:17:31,240 Speaker 1: a job they don't like or where they are not growing, 271 00:17:31,480 --> 00:17:34,080 Speaker 1: because they are so concerned they're going to lose their healthcare. 272 00:17:34,560 --> 00:17:38,960 Speaker 1: And a climate change town hall on CNN for having 273 00:17:38,960 --> 00:17:43,680 Speaker 1: failed to offer any serious long term solutions, she frankly 274 00:17:44,440 --> 00:17:49,640 Speaker 1: shrank to the lowest possible concept, which is somehow if 275 00:17:49,640 --> 00:17:52,760 Speaker 1: we gave up plastic straws, who would save the world. 276 00:17:53,160 --> 00:17:56,840 Speaker 1: Listen to her on CNN. Do you ban plastic straws? 277 00:17:57,160 --> 00:17:59,840 Speaker 1: I think we should. Yes. I mean, look, I'm gonna 278 00:17:59,880 --> 00:18:02,240 Speaker 1: be honest, it's really difficult to drink out of a 279 00:18:02,240 --> 00:18:04,239 Speaker 1: paper straw when you had it. If you're just like, 280 00:18:04,280 --> 00:18:06,479 Speaker 1: if you don't gulp it down immediately, it starts to 281 00:18:06,520 --> 00:18:09,719 Speaker 1: bend and then you know, the little thing catches it 282 00:18:09,760 --> 00:18:12,119 Speaker 1: and then you know, so we got to kind of 283 00:18:12,160 --> 00:18:16,280 Speaker 1: perfect that one a little bit more so. But rely 284 00:18:16,359 --> 00:18:18,400 Speaker 1: on innovation. I mean, we got we got it. Yeah, 285 00:18:18,480 --> 00:18:22,240 Speaker 1: Innovation is a process, right, you don't just do it. 286 00:18:22,280 --> 00:18:25,320 Speaker 1: Innovation is a process. But but you know, let's let's 287 00:18:25,400 --> 00:18:27,359 Speaker 1: encourage innovation. And you know, I think we could do 288 00:18:27,400 --> 00:18:30,440 Speaker 1: a little bit better than some of those flimsy plastic straws. 289 00:18:30,800 --> 00:18:35,360 Speaker 1: In that same CNN Climate Change town hall, cenator Harrison 290 00:18:35,520 --> 00:18:39,480 Speaker 1: much further in the direction of changing everything when she 291 00:18:39,600 --> 00:18:43,360 Speaker 1: said that she's in favor of banning fracking. Now. Fracking 292 00:18:43,440 --> 00:18:47,640 Speaker 1: is a technique that allows the oil and gas business 293 00:18:47,720 --> 00:18:51,320 Speaker 1: to produce dramatically more energy from the same amount of 294 00:18:51,440 --> 00:18:55,199 Speaker 1: space in a way which is remarkable. The development of 295 00:18:55,200 --> 00:18:59,840 Speaker 1: fracking increased the amount of available oil and North Dakota 296 00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:04,160 Speaker 1: from eight hundred million barrels to twenty four billion barrels. 297 00:19:04,520 --> 00:19:07,159 Speaker 1: It's made the United States the number one producer of 298 00:19:07,240 --> 00:19:10,400 Speaker 1: energy in the world, has made us energy independent, has 299 00:19:10,440 --> 00:19:13,920 Speaker 1: created hundreds of thousands of jobs, and she's very clear 300 00:19:13,920 --> 00:19:17,320 Speaker 1: about it. I think, unlike Vice President Biden, who recently 301 00:19:17,600 --> 00:19:22,440 Speaker 1: has been zig zagging back and forth, telling Western Pennsylvanians 302 00:19:22,480 --> 00:19:26,080 Speaker 1: that he really wouldn't totally abolish fracking because that's where 303 00:19:26,040 --> 00:19:28,119 Speaker 1: they get the living, but on the other hand telling 304 00:19:28,119 --> 00:19:30,920 Speaker 1: the left that he would have allis fracking. But Senator 305 00:19:30,960 --> 00:19:34,840 Speaker 1: Harris in the CNN Climate Change town hall was very 306 00:19:34,880 --> 00:19:37,880 Speaker 1: direct and very clear, there's no question I'm in favor 307 00:19:37,920 --> 00:19:43,440 Speaker 1: of banning fracking. So yeah, and starting and starting with 308 00:19:43,480 --> 00:19:46,120 Speaker 1: what we can do on day one around public lands, right, 309 00:19:46,520 --> 00:19:49,040 Speaker 1: and then there has to be legislation. But yes, and 310 00:19:49,119 --> 00:19:51,040 Speaker 1: this is something I've taken on in California. I have 311 00:19:51,080 --> 00:19:53,200 Speaker 1: a history of working on this issue. And to your point, 312 00:19:54,119 --> 00:19:56,840 Speaker 1: and you know that we have to just acknowledge that 313 00:19:56,880 --> 00:20:00,119 Speaker 1: the residual impact of fracking is enormous in terms the 314 00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:03,040 Speaker 1: impact on the health and safety of communities. On Weather 315 00:20:03,119 --> 00:20:07,200 Speaker 1: Channels twenty twenty Race to Save the Planet, it was 316 00:20:07,240 --> 00:20:11,200 Speaker 1: pointed out to Senator Harris that her position on benning 317 00:20:11,240 --> 00:20:14,399 Speaker 1: fracking and frankly getting rid of the entire fossil fields 318 00:20:14,400 --> 00:20:19,400 Speaker 1: industry would lead to enormous unemployment. But in a tradition 319 00:20:19,480 --> 00:20:24,600 Speaker 1: which I believe virtually nobody, I mean nobody who earns 320 00:20:24,640 --> 00:20:28,680 Speaker 1: a living from the energy industry will believe. She offers 321 00:20:28,720 --> 00:20:32,640 Speaker 1: her suggestion, which is that somehow they are magically going 322 00:20:32,680 --> 00:20:36,640 Speaker 1: to be retrained, so instead of producing oil or gas 323 00:20:37,000 --> 00:20:40,520 Speaker 1: or mining coal, they will somehow learn a whole new 324 00:20:40,600 --> 00:20:45,280 Speaker 1: set of jobs, including wind turbines and solar paneling. But again, 325 00:20:45,359 --> 00:20:48,439 Speaker 1: don't take my word for it. Here's Kamala Harris on 326 00:20:48,560 --> 00:20:53,160 Speaker 1: Weather Channels twenty twenty Race to save the planet. Well, 327 00:20:53,200 --> 00:20:57,840 Speaker 1: for the workers in that industry, we have to one, 328 00:20:57,960 --> 00:21:02,320 Speaker 1: we have to encourage that those industries better in terms 329 00:21:02,359 --> 00:21:06,320 Speaker 1: of giving the workers an ability to transition into the 330 00:21:06,480 --> 00:21:10,680 Speaker 1: jobs of the future such as renewable energy and there 331 00:21:10,720 --> 00:21:13,120 Speaker 1: are you know, if the Beer of Labor Statistics came 332 00:21:13,119 --> 00:21:14,639 Speaker 1: out with a list of the top twenty jobs in 333 00:21:14,640 --> 00:21:16,240 Speaker 1: the United States that will see the greatest amount of 334 00:21:16,280 --> 00:21:19,679 Speaker 1: growth in large part that the jobs are on that 335 00:21:19,720 --> 00:21:21,560 Speaker 1: list because these jobs need to be filled and we 336 00:21:21,560 --> 00:21:24,119 Speaker 1: don't have the skilled labor to fill them. Number one 337 00:21:24,119 --> 00:21:26,639 Speaker 1: and number two installation and maintenance of wind turbines and 338 00:21:26,680 --> 00:21:31,119 Speaker 1: solar paneling. So my plan and my and what I 339 00:21:31,160 --> 00:21:34,840 Speaker 1: intend to do for those workers is part of my 340 00:21:34,880 --> 00:21:38,360 Speaker 1: plan of action, is that all workers who are who 341 00:21:38,400 --> 00:21:42,000 Speaker 1: need to transition are going to get eight thousand dollars 342 00:21:42,040 --> 00:21:45,879 Speaker 1: tax credit to be able to do the training that 343 00:21:45,960 --> 00:21:48,480 Speaker 1: is necessary to take on the jobs that need to 344 00:21:48,520 --> 00:21:56,000 Speaker 1: be filled. Now, the most radical general position on really 345 00:21:56,080 --> 00:21:59,920 Speaker 1: changing things decisively is the so called Green New Deal, 346 00:22:00,560 --> 00:22:04,200 Speaker 1: which AOC and the squad developed in the House, and 347 00:22:04,840 --> 00:22:08,600 Speaker 1: Kamala Harris ended up saying she's for it. Vice President 348 00:22:08,640 --> 00:22:10,480 Speaker 1: Biden said he may be for it or part of 349 00:22:10,480 --> 00:22:12,400 Speaker 1: a little bit of it. Well, he's not sure he's 350 00:22:12,440 --> 00:22:14,719 Speaker 1: for it. I think, frankly, he's not sure what it is. 351 00:22:15,080 --> 00:22:19,520 Speaker 1: But Kamala Harris when she was asked about the Green 352 00:22:19,520 --> 00:22:22,840 Speaker 1: New Deal, she was very straightforward. Here is what she 353 00:22:22,880 --> 00:22:26,359 Speaker 1: said when she was told that Senator McConnell, who's going 354 00:22:26,400 --> 00:22:28,320 Speaker 1: to bring the Green New Deal up for a vote, 355 00:22:28,359 --> 00:22:31,359 Speaker 1: and the Senator I will vote for it. It is 356 00:22:31,359 --> 00:22:36,479 Speaker 1: a resolution. I believe that the underlying principles behind it 357 00:22:36,520 --> 00:22:40,719 Speaker 1: are sound and important. Climate change is truly an existential 358 00:22:40,760 --> 00:22:43,879 Speaker 1: threat to our country, and you look at it in 359 00:22:44,000 --> 00:22:46,400 Speaker 1: terms of how it is affecting many areas, including right 360 00:22:46,400 --> 00:22:50,040 Speaker 1: here in South Carolina. Built the officers drilling the same player, 361 00:22:50,480 --> 00:22:52,919 Speaker 1: all users she's are connected, and we need to have 362 00:22:53,119 --> 00:22:56,479 Speaker 1: a sense of urgency, especially from leaders of our country 363 00:22:56,520 --> 00:22:59,119 Speaker 1: around the feeling of this, because let's be clear, and 364 00:22:59,280 --> 00:23:02,119 Speaker 1: this is a matter of ultimately will be a matter 365 00:23:02,560 --> 00:23:05,159 Speaker 1: of whether our children, whether our seniors are going to 366 00:23:05,200 --> 00:23:08,040 Speaker 1: be able to drink clean water and breathe clean air. 367 00:23:08,840 --> 00:23:13,679 Speaker 1: In fact, she doubled down and September fourth, twenty nineteen, 368 00:23:13,800 --> 00:23:17,520 Speaker 1: she tweeted if they didn't pass the Green New Deal 369 00:23:17,520 --> 00:23:21,560 Speaker 1: on the site because of the filibuster rules, she would 370 00:23:21,600 --> 00:23:26,440 Speaker 1: just plane vote to eliminate the filibuster. This is her 371 00:23:26,560 --> 00:23:31,560 Speaker 1: tweet quote, if Republicans continue to block progress, I'll get 372 00:23:31,680 --> 00:23:34,640 Speaker 1: rid of the filibuster to pass a Green New Deal. 373 00:23:52,000 --> 00:23:56,640 Speaker 1: One of Senator Harris's more radical positions is on criminals 374 00:23:56,720 --> 00:24:00,320 Speaker 1: having the right to vote, and has often happens on 375 00:24:00,359 --> 00:24:03,200 Speaker 1: the left. She has caught up in her own ideology 376 00:24:03,680 --> 00:24:06,560 Speaker 1: and she ends up saying things that if she really 377 00:24:06,600 --> 00:24:09,240 Speaker 1: thought it through, she would have somehow tried to unduct 378 00:24:09,280 --> 00:24:13,000 Speaker 1: the question or something. So at the CNN town hall, 379 00:24:14,119 --> 00:24:18,600 Speaker 1: she's asked, do you agree with Senator Sanders that prisoners 380 00:24:18,640 --> 00:24:22,200 Speaker 1: such as the Boston marathon bomber should be able to vote? 381 00:24:22,400 --> 00:24:24,959 Speaker 1: I agree that the right to vote is one of 382 00:24:25,000 --> 00:24:29,840 Speaker 1: the very important components of citizenship and it is something 383 00:24:29,960 --> 00:24:35,600 Speaker 1: that people should not be stripped of needlessly, which is 384 00:24:35,640 --> 00:24:39,200 Speaker 1: why I have been long an advocate of making sure 385 00:24:39,280 --> 00:24:42,480 Speaker 1: that the formerly incarcerated are not denied a right to vote, 386 00:24:42,480 --> 00:24:45,000 Speaker 1: which is the case in so many states in our country, 387 00:24:45,240 --> 00:24:48,720 Speaker 1: in some states permanently deprived of the right to vote. 388 00:24:48,720 --> 00:24:51,480 Speaker 1: And these are policies that go back to Jim Crow. 389 00:24:51,880 --> 00:24:54,639 Speaker 1: These are policies that go back to the heart of 390 00:24:55,000 --> 00:24:59,400 Speaker 1: policies that have been about disenfranchisement, policies that continue until today. 391 00:24:59,680 --> 00:25:02,280 Speaker 1: And need to take it seriously. But people who are 392 00:25:03,200 --> 00:25:06,320 Speaker 1: convicted in prison, like the Boston marathon bomber, people who 393 00:25:06,359 --> 00:25:09,000 Speaker 1: are convicted of sexual assault, they should be able to vote. 394 00:25:09,359 --> 00:25:11,840 Speaker 1: I think we should have that conversation. So if you 395 00:25:11,880 --> 00:25:15,720 Speaker 1: have any question about how pro criminal and anti police 396 00:25:15,720 --> 00:25:18,639 Speaker 1: Senator Harris is, the fact that she can't say the 397 00:25:18,640 --> 00:25:22,199 Speaker 1: people who are convicted of sexual assault should not be 398 00:25:22,240 --> 00:25:25,760 Speaker 1: able to vote, she can't say that the Boston bomber 399 00:25:26,320 --> 00:25:29,080 Speaker 1: should not in fact be able to vote, gives you 400 00:25:29,160 --> 00:25:31,879 Speaker 1: some sense of how far out on the left she 401 00:25:31,960 --> 00:25:38,159 Speaker 1: really is. In addition to leaning towards murderers, bombers, and 402 00:25:38,320 --> 00:25:42,360 Speaker 1: rapists being allowed to vote, Senator Harris also proves once 403 00:25:42,359 --> 00:25:45,560 Speaker 1: again she's on the left when she does interview at 404 00:25:45,600 --> 00:25:49,640 Speaker 1: the MSNBC town Hall on May twenty eight, and she's 405 00:25:49,680 --> 00:25:54,200 Speaker 1: basically asked about whether or not there any limits to abortion. 406 00:25:54,359 --> 00:25:57,720 Speaker 1: Remember now that the Democratic Party has moved from abortion 407 00:25:57,800 --> 00:26:02,840 Speaker 1: being a rare and in the first trimester to abortion 408 00:26:02,920 --> 00:26:05,480 Speaker 1: being normal and could occur as late as the last 409 00:26:05,600 --> 00:26:09,760 Speaker 1: day before the baby's born. So her position is hard line, 410 00:26:10,160 --> 00:26:13,200 Speaker 1: and in fact not only hard line at the federal level, 411 00:26:13,560 --> 00:26:17,840 Speaker 1: but she promises to the pro abortion forces that she 412 00:26:17,960 --> 00:26:22,640 Speaker 1: will have the federal government review every state that passes 413 00:26:22,760 --> 00:26:27,320 Speaker 1: any kind of limitation to prevent abortions at any point 414 00:26:27,320 --> 00:26:31,399 Speaker 1: for any reason. Here from the MSNBC town hall is 415 00:26:31,880 --> 00:26:34,520 Speaker 1: Senator Harris, in her own words, are we going to 416 00:26:34,600 --> 00:26:37,679 Speaker 1: go back to the days of back alley abortions? Women 417 00:26:37,920 --> 00:26:42,159 Speaker 1: died before we had Roe v Wade in place? And 418 00:26:42,200 --> 00:26:44,320 Speaker 1: so I'm going to tell you on this issue, I'm 419 00:26:44,400 --> 00:26:48,240 Speaker 1: kind of done because here's how I feel about it. Guy, 420 00:26:48,560 --> 00:26:56,800 Speaker 1: I'm desided there are faiths that keep passing these laws, 421 00:26:56,800 --> 00:27:00,520 Speaker 1: and so when elected, I'm going to put in place 422 00:27:00,560 --> 00:27:05,000 Speaker 1: and require that states that have a history of passing 423 00:27:05,119 --> 00:27:11,240 Speaker 1: legislation that is designed to prevent or limit a woman's 424 00:27:11,280 --> 00:27:14,920 Speaker 1: access to reproductive healthcare. That those laws have to come 425 00:27:14,960 --> 00:27:19,200 Speaker 1: before my Department of Justice for a review and approval, 426 00:27:19,520 --> 00:27:22,760 Speaker 1: and until we determine that they are constitutional, they will 427 00:27:22,800 --> 00:27:28,320 Speaker 1: not take effect. The Democratic Party of Senator Harris would 428 00:27:28,359 --> 00:27:34,520 Speaker 1: be so radical and so different from anything we've ever seen. 429 00:27:35,280 --> 00:27:37,879 Speaker 1: In her new book, when she was on the View, 430 00:27:38,359 --> 00:27:45,159 Speaker 1: she said, it's fantastic that Alexandria Ocasio Cortez has proposed 431 00:27:45,280 --> 00:27:49,520 Speaker 1: raising the marginal tax rate to seventy percent, and that 432 00:27:49,680 --> 00:27:52,880 Speaker 1: she is good for the party. Now, that's a federal 433 00:27:53,000 --> 00:27:56,520 Speaker 1: seventy percent, on top of which, if for example, you 434 00:27:56,560 --> 00:27:59,280 Speaker 1: lived in Virginia you pay a seven percent sales tax, 435 00:28:00,040 --> 00:28:02,600 Speaker 1: New York would be even higher. So we're talking about 436 00:28:02,600 --> 00:28:06,399 Speaker 1: taking three out of every four dollars at the margin, 437 00:28:06,960 --> 00:28:09,879 Speaker 1: which may explain why so many people are migrating to 438 00:28:09,920 --> 00:28:13,359 Speaker 1: Florida and Texas to have no state income taxes. But 439 00:28:14,280 --> 00:28:18,320 Speaker 1: listen to her on the View as she explains how 440 00:28:18,359 --> 00:28:22,400 Speaker 1: she would tax us into a different world. I wanted 441 00:28:22,440 --> 00:28:25,760 Speaker 1: to ask you, Alexandrocasio Cortez's new darling of the party. 442 00:28:25,840 --> 00:28:28,640 Speaker 1: She officially has more Twitter followers than Nancy Pelosi. She's 443 00:28:28,640 --> 00:28:31,560 Speaker 1: done sixty minutes this weekend, proudly calling herself a radical, 444 00:28:31,920 --> 00:28:34,760 Speaker 1: and she's promoting policies like saying that every single carbon 445 00:28:34,760 --> 00:28:37,400 Speaker 1: emission in the country, every car should be eliminated within 446 00:28:37,440 --> 00:28:39,880 Speaker 1: the next eleven years, everything from a seventy to eighty 447 00:28:39,880 --> 00:28:42,720 Speaker 1: percent tax rate. Do you agree that she could possibly, 448 00:28:42,760 --> 00:28:46,720 Speaker 1: in this ideology of the socialist left, could splinter your party? No, 449 00:28:47,280 --> 00:28:52,440 Speaker 1: you know, I think that she is challenging the status quo. 450 00:28:52,720 --> 00:28:57,760 Speaker 1: I think that's fantastic. I think that you know, I 451 00:28:58,320 --> 00:29:02,160 Speaker 1: used to teach before, especially for in the last few years, 452 00:29:02,520 --> 00:29:05,080 Speaker 1: and the thing that I always loved about teaching was 453 00:29:05,160 --> 00:29:09,000 Speaker 1: when you teach, it requires you to defend the premise 454 00:29:10,160 --> 00:29:13,160 Speaker 1: and it requires you to re examine the premise and 455 00:29:13,400 --> 00:29:18,560 Speaker 1: question is it still relevant? Is it does it have impact? 456 00:29:18,560 --> 00:29:22,280 Speaker 1: Does it have meaning? And I think that she is 457 00:29:22,360 --> 00:29:26,880 Speaker 1: introducing bold ideas that should be discussed, and I think 458 00:29:26,920 --> 00:29:28,479 Speaker 1: it's good for the party. If I could think it's 459 00:29:28,480 --> 00:29:31,320 Speaker 1: good for the country. Let's look at the bold ideas 460 00:29:31,720 --> 00:29:35,960 Speaker 1: and I'm eager that we have those discussions and when 461 00:29:36,040 --> 00:29:38,840 Speaker 1: we are able to defend the status quo, then do it. 462 00:29:39,200 --> 00:29:41,440 Speaker 1: And if they're you know, if there's not merit to that, 463 00:29:41,560 --> 00:29:45,600 Speaker 1: then let's explore new ideas. If you listen to Senator 464 00:29:45,640 --> 00:29:49,800 Speaker 1: Harrison the View, I'm sure you noticed that she thinks 465 00:29:49,880 --> 00:29:54,680 Speaker 1: challenging the status quo, to use her word, fantastic, and 466 00:29:54,840 --> 00:29:59,040 Speaker 1: she really is committed to changing the current system. So 467 00:29:59,080 --> 00:30:03,200 Speaker 1: I think it's very importan to recognize that Senator Harris 468 00:30:03,480 --> 00:30:06,920 Speaker 1: is looking for, as she put it, bold ideas. Why 469 00:30:07,280 --> 00:30:09,720 Speaker 1: seventy tax rates is a bold idea, I'm not sure, 470 00:30:10,240 --> 00:30:13,960 Speaker 1: but that she really wants to take on those who 471 00:30:14,000 --> 00:30:19,080 Speaker 1: are defending the status quo, and she wants to explore 472 00:30:19,120 --> 00:30:23,040 Speaker 1: new ideas basically, no matter how whack they are. So 473 00:30:23,120 --> 00:30:26,960 Speaker 1: I think it's very clear from her comments on the 474 00:30:27,080 --> 00:30:29,920 Speaker 1: view that she is not only on the hard left, 475 00:30:30,280 --> 00:30:34,400 Speaker 1: but she's on the let's change America left. One of 476 00:30:34,400 --> 00:30:39,800 Speaker 1: the really interesting minor incidents that reveals a lot about 477 00:30:40,600 --> 00:30:46,120 Speaker 1: how messed up modern America is was Jesse Small, who 478 00:30:46,200 --> 00:30:50,400 Speaker 1: you will remember, staged his own problems for the purpose 479 00:30:50,520 --> 00:30:55,320 Speaker 1: of his own self importance in his own identity. But 480 00:30:55,400 --> 00:30:58,320 Speaker 1: that's not what she looked for. Even though she was 481 00:30:58,400 --> 00:31:02,560 Speaker 1: supposedly as Attorney General before that, the district attorney in 482 00:31:02,960 --> 00:31:07,600 Speaker 1: San Francisco, she has no sense of checking on the facts. 483 00:31:07,960 --> 00:31:13,600 Speaker 1: Here is Kello Harris on Jesse Smaller. Senator Harris sentat 484 00:31:13,640 --> 00:31:18,480 Speaker 1: a tweet on January twenty nineteen, as the Just Smaller 485 00:31:18,560 --> 00:31:22,560 Speaker 1: case was just hitting the news. Jesse Smaller is one 486 00:31:22,560 --> 00:31:26,400 Speaker 1: of the kindest, most gentle human beings I know. I'm 487 00:31:26,440 --> 00:31:30,240 Speaker 1: praying for his quick recovery. This was an attempted modern 488 00:31:30,320 --> 00:31:33,120 Speaker 1: day lynching. No one shot the fear for their life 489 00:31:33,600 --> 00:31:37,440 Speaker 1: because of their sexuality or color of their skin. We 490 00:31:37,560 --> 00:31:42,760 Speaker 1: must confront the seat that in February twenty first, twenty nineteen, 491 00:31:43,560 --> 00:31:47,160 Speaker 1: after the case had totally fallen apart, it was clear 492 00:31:47,240 --> 00:31:51,080 Speaker 1: that Smaller himself was when a conjobin had lied, causing 493 00:31:51,080 --> 00:31:56,000 Speaker 1: a national incident and arousing national anguish and national anger. 494 00:31:56,880 --> 00:32:00,360 Speaker 1: She sent out another tweet, but she doesn't blame Essie 495 00:32:00,800 --> 00:32:05,160 Speaker 1: because that doesn't fit the liberal playbook, and said she 496 00:32:05,280 --> 00:32:08,040 Speaker 1: uses this as another occasion to attack all the rest 497 00:32:08,040 --> 00:32:10,560 Speaker 1: of us. But here's what she said in her tweet. 498 00:32:11,240 --> 00:32:14,680 Speaker 1: Like most of you, I've seen the reports about justice smart, 499 00:32:15,400 --> 00:32:20,160 Speaker 1: and I am sad, frustrated and disappointed. What anyone makes 500 00:32:20,160 --> 00:32:24,360 Speaker 1: false claims to police. It only diverts resources away from 501 00:32:24,760 --> 00:32:27,920 Speaker 1: serious investigations. But it makes it more difficult for other 502 00:32:28,000 --> 00:32:31,080 Speaker 1: victims of crime to come forward. At the same time, 503 00:32:31,520 --> 00:32:34,800 Speaker 1: we must speak the truth. Hate crimes are on the 504 00:32:34,880 --> 00:32:39,120 Speaker 1: rise in America. Just last year, the FBI released statistics 505 00:32:39,120 --> 00:32:42,480 Speaker 1: that revealed a seventeen percent increase in the number of 506 00:32:42,480 --> 00:32:45,720 Speaker 1: hate crimes in America. Part of the tragedy this situation 507 00:32:46,160 --> 00:32:48,720 Speaker 1: is that it distracts from that truth and has been 508 00:32:48,760 --> 00:32:51,760 Speaker 1: seized by some who would like to dismiss, in downplay 509 00:32:52,160 --> 00:32:55,240 Speaker 1: the very real problems that we must address. We should 510 00:32:55,240 --> 00:32:59,320 Speaker 1: not allow that. I will always condemn racism and homophobia. 511 00:32:59,480 --> 00:33:02,840 Speaker 1: We must always confront hate directly. How we must always 512 00:33:02,880 --> 00:33:05,680 Speaker 1: seek justice. That is what I will keep fighting for. 513 00:33:06,200 --> 00:33:11,720 Speaker 1: No notice, her second tweet makes no sense in the 514 00:33:11,800 --> 00:33:15,360 Speaker 1: context of what we had learned about Jose Smaller. He 515 00:33:15,400 --> 00:33:18,440 Speaker 1: was running a conjob. He was inventing an event that 516 00:33:18,440 --> 00:33:21,920 Speaker 1: didn't occur. He was trying to get publicity. He was 517 00:33:21,960 --> 00:33:24,160 Speaker 1: trying to have people decide that he was a figure 518 00:33:24,200 --> 00:33:30,560 Speaker 1: of sympathy. But she can't condemn him. She turns and 519 00:33:30,640 --> 00:33:34,600 Speaker 1: she says, what's really sad is that people will now 520 00:33:34,680 --> 00:33:38,400 Speaker 1: distort this. Well, there's not much as sorting involved. The 521 00:33:38,480 --> 00:33:41,320 Speaker 1: guy lied and he lied in a way which was 522 00:33:41,360 --> 00:33:46,880 Speaker 1: designed to increase racism, increase hate, increase the sense of 523 00:33:46,920 --> 00:33:51,680 Speaker 1: sexual vulnerability. He did so knowingly and deliberately, and we're 524 00:33:51,680 --> 00:33:59,520 Speaker 1: just fortunately he was caught. Senator Harris's habit of exaggeration, nastiness, 525 00:34:00,080 --> 00:34:03,640 Speaker 1: direct assault on her opponents was illustrated as well as 526 00:34:03,680 --> 00:34:09,400 Speaker 1: anything on September twenty seven, twenty eighteen, when she confronted 527 00:34:09,719 --> 00:34:14,160 Speaker 1: Trump's nominee for the Supreme Court, Judge Van Judge Kevanaugh, 528 00:34:14,239 --> 00:34:17,719 Speaker 1: Have you taken a professionally administered polygraph test as it 529 00:34:17,719 --> 00:34:22,200 Speaker 1: relates to this issue. No, the I'll do whatever the 530 00:34:22,200 --> 00:34:25,600 Speaker 1: committee wants. Of course, those are not admissible in federal court, 531 00:34:25,800 --> 00:34:28,280 Speaker 1: but I'll do whatever the committee wants. They're not admissible 532 00:34:28,320 --> 00:34:31,080 Speaker 1: in federal court because they're not reliable, as you know, 533 00:34:31,280 --> 00:34:33,880 Speaker 1: so you've not taken off right. All three of the 534 00:34:33,920 --> 00:34:37,560 Speaker 1: women who have made sworn allegations against you have called 535 00:34:37,600 --> 00:34:40,759 Speaker 1: for an independent FBI investigation into the claims. You've been 536 00:34:40,760 --> 00:34:44,400 Speaker 1: asked during the course of this hearing by four different members, 537 00:34:44,400 --> 00:34:48,960 Speaker 1: by my account, at least eight times today and also 538 00:34:49,040 --> 00:34:51,799 Speaker 1: earlier this week on national television, whether you would call 539 00:34:51,920 --> 00:34:56,920 Speaker 1: for the White House to authorize an FBI investigation each 540 00:34:56,960 --> 00:34:59,719 Speaker 1: time you have declined to do so. Now you know, 541 00:35:00,040 --> 00:35:04,680 Speaker 1: I know you do that. The FBI is an agency 542 00:35:04,920 --> 00:35:09,839 Speaker 1: of men and women who are sworn and trained law enforcement, who, 543 00:35:10,239 --> 00:35:16,040 Speaker 1: in the course of conducting background investigations on nominees for 544 00:35:16,239 --> 00:35:19,640 Speaker 1: the Supreme Court of the United States and others, are 545 00:35:19,760 --> 00:35:24,040 Speaker 1: charged with conducting those background investigations because they are sworn 546 00:35:24,120 --> 00:35:27,880 Speaker 1: law enforcement and they have the expertise and the ability 547 00:35:27,880 --> 00:35:29,400 Speaker 1: and the history of doing that. So I'm going to 548 00:35:29,440 --> 00:35:33,080 Speaker 1: ask you one last time, are you willing to ask 549 00:35:33,239 --> 00:35:37,840 Speaker 1: the White House to authorize the FBI to investigate the 550 00:35:37,840 --> 00:35:39,719 Speaker 1: claims that have been made against you? Well, I'll do 551 00:35:39,760 --> 00:35:42,040 Speaker 1: whatever the committee wants, of course, and I've heard you 552 00:35:42,080 --> 00:35:44,520 Speaker 1: say that. But i've heard you asked. I've not heard 553 00:35:44,560 --> 00:35:48,120 Speaker 1: you answer a very specific question that's been asked, which is, 554 00:35:48,480 --> 00:35:53,480 Speaker 1: are you willing to ask the White House to conduct 555 00:35:53,640 --> 00:35:57,360 Speaker 1: an investigation by the FBI to get to whatever you 556 00:35:57,440 --> 00:36:00,359 Speaker 1: believe is the bottom of the allegations that have been 557 00:36:00,680 --> 00:36:05,440 Speaker 1: levied against you. The FBI would gather witness statements you have. 558 00:36:07,719 --> 00:36:09,440 Speaker 1: I don't want to debate with you how they do 559 00:36:09,520 --> 00:36:12,840 Speaker 1: their business. I'm just asking are you willing to ask 560 00:36:12,880 --> 00:36:16,279 Speaker 1: the White House to conduct such an investigation, because, as 561 00:36:16,280 --> 00:36:20,560 Speaker 1: you are aware, the FBI did conduct a background investigation 562 00:36:21,440 --> 00:36:25,600 Speaker 1: into you before we were aware of these most recent allegations. 563 00:36:25,600 --> 00:36:27,440 Speaker 1: So are you willing to ask the White House to 564 00:36:27,440 --> 00:36:28,600 Speaker 1: do it? And so yes or no, and then we 565 00:36:28,600 --> 00:36:32,000 Speaker 1: can move on. That had six background investigations over twenty 566 00:36:32,000 --> 00:36:35,120 Speaker 1: six years. As it relates to the recent allegations, are 567 00:36:35,120 --> 00:36:38,319 Speaker 1: you willing to have them do it? The witness testimonies 568 00:36:38,360 --> 00:36:42,839 Speaker 1: before you know, witness who was there supports that I 569 00:36:42,920 --> 00:36:44,640 Speaker 1: was there. Okay, I'm going to take that as a no, 570 00:36:44,760 --> 00:36:47,600 Speaker 1: and we can move on. You have said in your 571 00:36:47,640 --> 00:36:51,920 Speaker 1: opening statement you characterized these allegations as a conspiracy directed 572 00:36:51,960 --> 00:36:56,280 Speaker 1: against you. I'll point out to you that Judge Justice 573 00:36:56,320 --> 00:37:00,200 Speaker 1: now Neil Gorsich was nominated by this president. He was 574 00:37:00,239 --> 00:37:03,319 Speaker 1: considered by this body just last year. I did a 575 00:37:03,440 --> 00:37:08,040 Speaker 1: rough kind of analysis of similarities. You both attended Georgetown Prep. 576 00:37:08,440 --> 00:37:12,120 Speaker 1: You both attended very prestigious law schools. You both clerked 577 00:37:12,120 --> 00:37:16,080 Speaker 1: for Justice Kennedy. You were both circuit judges. You were 578 00:37:16,080 --> 00:37:19,800 Speaker 1: both nominated to the Supreme Court. You were both questioned 579 00:37:19,800 --> 00:37:23,600 Speaker 1: about your record. The only difference is that you have 580 00:37:23,719 --> 00:37:28,879 Speaker 1: been accused of sexual assault. How do you reconcile your 581 00:37:28,920 --> 00:37:33,000 Speaker 1: statement about a conspiracy against you with the treatment of 582 00:37:33,040 --> 00:37:37,200 Speaker 1: someone who was before this body not very long ago. So, 583 00:37:37,600 --> 00:37:41,680 Speaker 1: just to summarize what happened in the Kavanaugh situation, a 584 00:37:41,840 --> 00:37:46,719 Speaker 1: totally phony series of charges were brought to bear. There 585 00:37:46,760 --> 00:37:50,200 Speaker 1: were no supporting witnesses for any of the charges. It 586 00:37:50,400 --> 00:37:52,840 Speaker 1: was very clear an effort on the left to do 587 00:37:52,960 --> 00:37:56,520 Speaker 1: everything they could to smear Judge Kavanaugh so he would 588 00:37:56,560 --> 00:38:00,880 Speaker 1: not become Justice Kavanaugh, and the result law that in 589 00:38:00,960 --> 00:38:05,080 Speaker 1: the end it was clear that there was no serious 590 00:38:05,120 --> 00:38:08,719 Speaker 1: evidence of wrongdoing, none of which led her to apologize 591 00:38:08,800 --> 00:38:12,600 Speaker 1: later to the nastiness and the aggressiveness of her comments. 592 00:38:18,120 --> 00:38:20,360 Speaker 1: You can read more about the liberal left statements of 593 00:38:20,400 --> 00:38:24,000 Speaker 1: Democratic vice presidential nominee Kamala Harris on her show page 594 00:38:24,360 --> 00:38:27,920 Speaker 1: at Newtsworld dot com.
