1
00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:01,880
Speaker 1: This is going to be bad. This is going to

2
00:00:01,920 --> 00:00:04,480
Speaker 1: be one of New York's darker spiral movements.

3
00:00:04,600 --> 00:00:07,040
Speaker 2: I think in my America the only thing that should

4
00:00:07,120 --> 00:00:10,720
Speaker 2: require bulletproof glass is anyone making a movie with Alec

5
00:00:10,800 --> 00:00:17,079
Speaker 2: Baldwin in California. It's spiking in Los Angeles. Specifically, it's spiking,

6
00:00:17,920 --> 00:00:22,120
Speaker 2: and she's blaming the federal government because that's what she does.

7
00:00:22,480 --> 00:00:25,360
Speaker 3: This guy will go out of his way to every

8
00:00:25,480 --> 00:00:29,280
Speaker 3: different group in Minneapolis, not just the Smaly neighborhoods. They'll

9
00:00:29,360 --> 00:00:32,199
Speaker 3: even go and buy for Republican support. Because although I

10
00:00:32,280 --> 00:00:34,960
Speaker 3: do believe jacobri is the worst mayor in the country,

11
00:00:35,240 --> 00:00:37,440
Speaker 3: I mean, this is the man who let Minneapolis burn.

12
00:00:40,479 --> 00:00:43,440
Speaker 4: I love cities. I love the country, but I love

13
00:00:43,520 --> 00:00:44,240
Speaker 4: cities as well.

14
00:00:44,479 --> 00:00:44,879
Speaker 5: I just do.

15
00:00:45,520 --> 00:00:48,040
Speaker 4: I enjoy them each for what they are. I love

16
00:00:48,440 --> 00:00:50,760
Speaker 4: being in the mountains, the quiet of nature. It's a

17
00:00:50,760 --> 00:00:54,240
Speaker 4: great place to pray. I love the insanity of a

18
00:00:54,280 --> 00:00:57,200
Speaker 4: city and the lights and the horns and the restaurants.

19
00:00:56,760 --> 00:00:57,840
Speaker 5: And I love it all.

20
00:00:58,600 --> 00:01:00,760
Speaker 4: And even if you hate cities, you should know that

21
00:01:00,840 --> 00:01:02,280
Speaker 4: cities are an important part.

22
00:01:02,120 --> 00:01:03,560
Speaker 5: Of your country. They're not everything.

23
00:01:04,480 --> 00:01:08,840
Speaker 4: The countryside matters too, but cities are important and it

24
00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:12,840
Speaker 4: is a big deal that our greatest cities, our biggest cities,

25
00:01:12,880 --> 00:01:16,360
Speaker 4: our most powerful cities, the cities international people come visit,

26
00:01:17,440 --> 00:01:18,839
Speaker 4: they're not run by communists.

27
00:01:19,840 --> 00:01:24,240
Speaker 6: Today begins a new era. We will draw this city

28
00:01:24,280 --> 00:01:29,520
Speaker 6: closer together. We will replace the frigidity of rugged individualism

29
00:01:29,560 --> 00:01:32,440
Speaker 6: with the warmth of collectivism. I was elected as a

30
00:01:32,480 --> 00:01:36,000
Speaker 6: democratic socialist, and I will govern as a democratic socialist.

31
00:01:37,560 --> 00:01:40,800
Speaker 6: I will not abandon my principles for fear of being

32
00:01:40,840 --> 00:01:41,720
Speaker 6: deemed radical.

33
00:01:44,319 --> 00:01:46,360
Speaker 4: That guy's the mayor of the most important city in

34
00:01:46,360 --> 00:01:50,560
Speaker 4: the world. That guy's the mayor of the largest, most wealthy,

35
00:01:50,600 --> 00:01:53,320
Speaker 4: most powerful city in the United States of America.

36
00:01:53,920 --> 00:01:54,640
Speaker 5: It's a big deal.

37
00:01:55,240 --> 00:01:57,440
Speaker 4: Maybe you hate New York City, maybe you've never been,

38
00:01:57,480 --> 00:01:59,440
Speaker 4: maybe you have been any and that's fine, and so

39
00:01:59,560 --> 00:02:01,680
Speaker 4: I'm not not here to make the pitch for the

40
00:02:01,680 --> 00:02:05,960
Speaker 4: big apple. It's a big deal that these people are

41
00:02:06,280 --> 00:02:10,160
Speaker 4: carrying apart our cities. And remember again, I want to

42
00:02:10,240 --> 00:02:13,480
Speaker 4: drive this point home. You know why Washington, d C.

43
00:02:14,520 --> 00:02:16,800
Speaker 4: Has all this white marble and stuff like that. And

44
00:02:16,840 --> 00:02:19,000
Speaker 4: even if you haven't been there, you've seen the buildings.

45
00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:23,960
Speaker 4: You know why that is. The founders did that on purpose.

46
00:02:24,520 --> 00:02:29,560
Speaker 4: Why did they do that they did that for international dignitaries,

47
00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:32,840
Speaker 4: people coming from other countries who would come.

48
00:02:32,720 --> 00:02:33,720
Speaker 5: To Washington, d C.

49
00:02:34,280 --> 00:02:38,320
Speaker 4: They wanted them to be wowed by our capital, thus

50
00:02:38,360 --> 00:02:41,480
Speaker 4: giving our country more legitimacy in their eyes.

51
00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:43,720
Speaker 5: That was the whole purpose of it. You know, it matters.

52
00:02:43,960 --> 00:02:44,800
Speaker 5: So I want to.

53
00:02:44,800 --> 00:02:51,720
Speaker 4: Stress this in Tokyo, in Berlin, in London, if there's

54
00:02:51,760 --> 00:02:54,760
Speaker 4: a billboard, if there's an ad for America. As much

55
00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:58,960
Speaker 4: as I love Montana, where I graduated high school, Montana's

56
00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:03,680
Speaker 4: not on it, on it. New York City, Los Angeles, Chicago,

57
00:03:04,280 --> 00:03:07,720
Speaker 4: Our cities are what you see there, and when people travel,

58
00:03:07,760 --> 00:03:10,680
Speaker 4: they travel to those cities so often.

59
00:03:11,240 --> 00:03:13,640
Speaker 5: And just just think about this.

60
00:03:13,720 --> 00:03:16,720
Speaker 4: Think about hopping on a plane from Tokyo, like I

61
00:03:16,800 --> 00:03:20,000
Speaker 4: just mentioned, and you fly into Los Angeles thinking you're

62
00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:23,960
Speaker 4: gonna see the Hollywood Sign, sun, the beach, some pretty girls,

63
00:03:24,320 --> 00:03:25,480
Speaker 4: and instead this is what you get.

64
00:03:26,800 --> 00:03:30,720
Speaker 7: An up close, exclusive look underground at living conditions too

65
00:03:30,880 --> 00:03:36,240
Speaker 7: extreme for words. It's hard to imagine someone doing that trash,

66
00:03:36,360 --> 00:03:39,160
Speaker 7: human waste and going in an overpowering stench.

67
00:03:39,320 --> 00:03:40,440
Speaker 6: Alright, I gotta get back.

68
00:03:41,200 --> 00:03:43,880
Speaker 7: Just moments earlier, we watched someone climb out of that

69
00:03:43,960 --> 00:03:48,120
Speaker 7: storm drain using the sewer as shelter water for.

70
00:03:49,920 --> 00:03:52,320
Speaker 8: Goland On, Her answer.

71
00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:56,160
Speaker 7: Is hard to understand, but the area eighty eighth and

72
00:03:56,240 --> 00:04:01,880
Speaker 7: South Grand overwhelmed with r v's tents and trash.

73
00:04:02,040 --> 00:04:02,320
Speaker 5: Hello.

74
00:04:02,520 --> 00:04:05,920
Speaker 7: Yes, one Noah with nonprofit Clean La with me was

75
00:04:05,920 --> 00:04:08,480
Speaker 7: picking up garbage here Monday. We got a lady living

76
00:04:08,520 --> 00:04:11,080
Speaker 7: down there. When you saw not one but two people

77
00:04:11,120 --> 00:04:12,760
Speaker 7: emerge from the storm drain.

78
00:04:12,680 --> 00:04:13,600
Speaker 9: I can't explain that.

79
00:04:14,360 --> 00:04:17,479
Speaker 7: You know, a person living like a rat worse than

80
00:04:17,480 --> 00:04:18,160
Speaker 7: the rot.

81
00:04:18,440 --> 00:04:20,640
Speaker 4: Come on, is a human. It's a human being.

82
00:04:21,040 --> 00:04:22,080
Speaker 5: Why are we accepting this?

83
00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:25,440
Speaker 1: Why all the officials they have to do something, They

84
00:04:25,480 --> 00:04:26,600
Speaker 1: have to fix this problem.

85
00:04:26,720 --> 00:04:28,640
Speaker 8: Hey, pisces me off. That's why I was like, what

86
00:04:28,640 --> 00:04:30,160
Speaker 8: should to do? I'm gona tell them to clean.

87
00:04:33,480 --> 00:04:37,280
Speaker 4: You know how gorgeous Los Angeles is. You've heard me

88
00:04:37,320 --> 00:04:40,920
Speaker 4: talked about it. Before you fly into lax and you're

89
00:04:40,960 --> 00:04:45,120
Speaker 4: coming in over the mountains, the ocean right there, and

90
00:04:45,240 --> 00:04:47,520
Speaker 4: you know, before you land, before you get close enough,

91
00:04:47,520 --> 00:04:50,039
Speaker 4: you're looking and you're thinking to yourself, it's freaking paradise.

92
00:04:50,680 --> 00:04:53,560
Speaker 4: I mean, I can imagine all the people who tried

93
00:04:53,560 --> 00:04:56,520
Speaker 4: to settle and settled Los Angeles back in the day.

94
00:04:56,880 --> 00:04:59,800
Speaker 4: I can imagine what they thought riding a horse through

95
00:04:59,839 --> 00:05:03,799
Speaker 4: the mountains and coming across Los Angeles. It should be

96
00:05:04,520 --> 00:05:08,400
Speaker 4: it should be the mecca in America. It's a total,

97
00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:13,240
Speaker 4: filthy crime, written dump. One of the probably the least

98
00:05:13,279 --> 00:05:15,560
Speaker 4: safe I've felt in an American city and a long time,

99
00:05:15,640 --> 00:05:16,920
Speaker 4: is when I went to LA recently.

100
00:05:18,320 --> 00:05:19,960
Speaker 5: So we have to decide.

101
00:05:21,120 --> 00:05:23,840
Speaker 4: Who's the worst mayor in the country, who's the one

102
00:05:23,920 --> 00:05:27,520
Speaker 4: most responsible for the destruction of their cities. We're gonna

103
00:05:27,520 --> 00:05:30,320
Speaker 4: talk about New York City. We're going to talk about Minneapolis.

104
00:05:30,360 --> 00:05:32,960
Speaker 4: Can't forget about Minneapolis, but we're going to talk about La.

105
00:05:33,480 --> 00:05:35,320
Speaker 5: We're going to talk about that with some great guests

106
00:05:35,360 --> 00:05:35,480
Speaker 5: for you.

107
00:05:35,560 --> 00:05:37,160
Speaker 4: We're gonna have a good time tonight on them, right,

00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:41,200
Speaker 2: All right, very good.

Speaker 5: Let's do the promo, stand up of the promo.

111
00:05:46,560 --> 00:05:51,240
Speaker 4: Then you're gonna go who's the worst mayor in America?

112
00:05:51,440 --> 00:05:53,960
Speaker 4: It's our to decide, right Well, we thought we'd bring

113
00:05:54,000 --> 00:05:56,960
Speaker 4: on some experts from the various places around.

114
00:05:56,640 --> 00:06:00,000
Speaker 5: The country and we'll hash this out. Who is the world?

115
00:06:00,960 --> 00:06:03,360
Speaker 4: Why don't you start taking some natural herbal supplements from

119
00:06:18,520 --> 00:06:20,200

00:06:20,560 --> 00:06:21,000
Speaker 5: Do you know?

121
00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:24,680
Speaker 4: Do you know how much your life will change if

122
00:06:25,200 --> 00:06:26,960
Speaker 4: you're let's say you're a dude and you start taking

123
00:06:26,960 --> 00:06:29,920
Speaker 4: a male Vitality stack from Chalk and your tea levels

124
00:06:29,960 --> 00:06:31,800
Speaker 4: go up twenty percent and ninety days. Do you know

125
00:06:31,839 --> 00:06:36,520
Speaker 4: how that would change your life? That's real. I'm forty

126
00:06:36,520 --> 00:06:39,120
Speaker 4: five years old. My tea levels are in the high

127
00:06:39,160 --> 00:06:43,040
Speaker 4: seven hundreds. Natural herbal supplements from Chalk that don't need

128
00:06:43,120 --> 00:06:50,760
Speaker 4: needles in my arm c hoq, chok dot com, slash jesse.

129
00:06:51,160 --> 00:06:57,240
Speaker 2: If a commission studying reparations in this city recommended cash

130
00:06:57,800 --> 00:07:02,920
Speaker 2: reparations for people impacted in New York City, which you

131
00:07:02,960 --> 00:07:04,040
Speaker 2: support that recommendation.

132
00:07:04,240 --> 00:07:05,839
Speaker 10: First, I want to say that I stand by what

133
00:07:05,920 --> 00:07:09,560
Speaker 10: I submitted. Yes, it's the truth. It's not a personal assessment.

134
00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:15,960
Speaker 10: And we often think about slavery and the complicity in

135
00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:19,320
Speaker 10: slavery as being exclusively to certain geographic areas of the country.

136
00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:22,400
Speaker 10: Here in New York City we were very complicit, and

137
00:07:22,400 --> 00:07:24,400
Speaker 10: so I look forward to whatever those findings are. I

138
00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:26,240
Speaker 10: can't give you an answer in advance of them, but

139
00:07:26,280 --> 00:07:28,920
Speaker 10: I can tell you that this is critically important because

140
00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:32,680
Speaker 10: this is also what it looks like to acknowledge what

141
00:07:32,800 --> 00:07:33,640
Speaker 10: history truly was.

142
00:07:36,400 --> 00:07:38,440
Speaker 5: I'm sorry these people were just such clowns.

143
00:07:38,680 --> 00:07:41,520
Speaker 4: Joining me now and my friend and as Stepman's senior

144
00:07:41,560 --> 00:07:46,040
Speaker 4: policy and legal analysts for the wonderful Independent Women's Forum, okay,

145
00:07:46,720 --> 00:07:50,280
Speaker 4: and as setting aside, the normal thing that every Democrat

146
00:07:50,360 --> 00:07:52,480
Speaker 4: has to do is give these people a pat on

147
00:07:52,520 --> 00:07:52,800
Speaker 4: the head.

148
00:07:52,880 --> 00:07:54,560
Speaker 5: Yes, yes, reparations are coming.

149
00:07:55,440 --> 00:07:57,960
Speaker 4: I suspect that this guy might actually be serious, because

150
00:07:57,960 --> 00:08:02,200
Speaker 4: he's serious serious, Yeah.

151
00:08:02,240 --> 00:08:05,080
Speaker 1: I mean, I think we generally make the mistake of

152
00:08:05,880 --> 00:08:10,720
Speaker 1: underestimating some of the left's biggest proponents because they are

153
00:08:10,760 --> 00:08:13,600
Speaker 1: so ridiculous. Either they have the blue and purple hair

154
00:08:13,640 --> 00:08:16,560
Speaker 1: and the nose ring, or you know, there are men

155
00:08:16,640 --> 00:08:20,520
Speaker 1: pretending to be women, like the health secretary or my

156
00:08:20,960 --> 00:08:23,400
Speaker 1: Dommy's case, he's always got that like big goofy smile

157
00:08:23,600 --> 00:08:26,320
Speaker 1: on his face. But the policies that he's advancing are

158
00:08:26,400 --> 00:08:28,360
Speaker 1: very real and they have very real impacts, and I

159
00:08:28,400 --> 00:08:29,760
Speaker 1: would not put this past him at all.

160
00:08:31,120 --> 00:08:35,319
Speaker 4: You are sadly familiar with said impacts. I have not

161
00:08:35,520 --> 00:08:37,880
Speaker 4: been to the city I love so much in probably

162
00:08:38,000 --> 00:08:41,079
Speaker 4: a year and a half, maybe two years, have things changed.

163
00:08:42,520 --> 00:08:45,160
Speaker 1: Look, New York City has what do they say about countries,

164
00:08:45,760 --> 00:08:47,520
Speaker 1: You know, you have a lot of ruin in a country.

165
00:08:47,600 --> 00:08:50,560
Speaker 1: New York City has a lot of ruin in it.

166
00:08:50,559 --> 00:08:54,440
Speaker 1: It's obviously the largest city in the United States. It

167
00:08:54,559 --> 00:08:58,040
Speaker 1: has enormous advantages both in terms of the industries is

168
00:08:58,080 --> 00:09:02,560
Speaker 1: able to attract and of the cultural availability of I

169
00:09:02,600 --> 00:09:05,720
Speaker 1: mean just particular things that are only available only in

170
00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:07,960
Speaker 1: New York City, I would say in the United States.

171
00:09:08,160 --> 00:09:13,120
Speaker 1: I love the city, full disclosure, but this is going

172
00:09:13,120 --> 00:09:14,600
Speaker 1: to be bad. This is going to be one of

173
00:09:14,640 --> 00:09:18,240
Speaker 1: New York's darker spiral moments. I think in part because

174
00:09:18,280 --> 00:09:20,480
Speaker 1: I don't think Montdommy's going anywhere. I think you'll probably

175
00:09:20,520 --> 00:09:24,600
Speaker 1: get a second term. And he's already implementing things that

176
00:09:24,679 --> 00:09:28,680
Speaker 1: are truly going to chase an enormous amount of capital,

177
00:09:28,800 --> 00:09:32,440
Speaker 1: enormous amount of wealth producing people and industries at least

178
00:09:32,440 --> 00:09:35,400
Speaker 1: across the river into Jersey, possibly into the arms of

179
00:09:35,679 --> 00:09:37,880
Speaker 1: Florida or Texas. And that is going to have a

180
00:09:38,040 --> 00:09:40,360
Speaker 1: real impact on the city. And that's not even getting

181
00:09:40,360 --> 00:09:43,960
Speaker 1: to the cultural or the crime and quality of life

182
00:09:44,240 --> 00:09:47,360
Speaker 1: issues that he's going full steam ahead in the wrong

183
00:09:47,400 --> 00:09:47,880
Speaker 1: direction on.

184
00:09:48,960 --> 00:09:50,920
Speaker 4: I want to focus on the money part because you

185
00:09:50,960 --> 00:09:53,640
Speaker 4: brought up a really great point. New York City, for

186
00:09:53,679 --> 00:09:57,000
Speaker 4: a variety of reasons, is so appealing that you can

187
00:09:57,040 --> 00:09:59,360
Speaker 4: have a crappy mayor they certainly have plenty of times

188
00:09:59,400 --> 00:10:02,520
Speaker 4: before and still kind of maintain because enough people are

189
00:10:02,520 --> 00:10:04,400
Speaker 4: going to want to be there and do business there.

190
00:10:04,720 --> 00:10:07,520
Speaker 4: Do you think, like with the rent stuff, with the

191
00:10:07,640 --> 00:10:11,160
Speaker 4: tack and billionaire stuff, that it's finally been pushed to

192
00:10:11,240 --> 00:10:13,080
Speaker 4: a point where that's not going to be the case.

193
00:10:14,640 --> 00:10:17,160
Speaker 1: I think, especially if Mondami gets a second term, I

194
00:10:17,160 --> 00:10:19,440
Speaker 1: think there are a lot of people preparing to leave now,

195
00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:23,600
Speaker 1: and that is what I hear from these kinds of

196
00:10:23,600 --> 00:10:26,400
Speaker 1: political and finance circles, that there are a lot of

197
00:10:26,440 --> 00:10:29,439
Speaker 1: industries that are especially looking to uprooting, maybe go across

198
00:10:29,480 --> 00:10:32,959
Speaker 1: the river to Jersey City, which would not be as

199
00:10:33,240 --> 00:10:37,760
Speaker 1: disruptive to their workforce and everything else. It's similar to

200
00:10:37,800 --> 00:10:40,920
Speaker 1: the DC area, right, You've got three different jurisdictions very

201
00:10:40,960 --> 00:10:44,959
Speaker 1: close together in the tri state area. So that's one possibility.

202
00:10:45,040 --> 00:10:46,960
Speaker 1: Not that New Jersey governance is that much better, but

203
00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:48,600
Speaker 1: at least it would be out of the clutches of

204
00:10:48,720 --> 00:10:53,800
Speaker 1: Mondami himself, or to go just further north in New

205
00:10:53,880 --> 00:10:57,120
Speaker 1: York State, up into Westchester County. I'm hearing a lot

206
00:10:57,120 --> 00:10:58,800
Speaker 1: of that. And then of course there are the appeal.

207
00:10:59,280 --> 00:11:02,640
Speaker 1: They are the appealing spots for business all over the

208
00:11:02,679 --> 00:11:06,720
Speaker 1: country now, especially with the advent of remote work in Miami,

209
00:11:06,920 --> 00:11:11,559
Speaker 1: in Dallas or Fort Worth. So there's an enormous incentive

210
00:11:11,679 --> 00:11:16,200
Speaker 1: for companies to do that, and Montammi is really pushing

211
00:11:16,280 --> 00:11:18,080
Speaker 1: their allegiance to the big Apple.

212
00:11:18,120 --> 00:11:23,640
Speaker 4: I think let's talk about foreigners in is because well,

213
00:11:24,280 --> 00:11:25,320
Speaker 4: they're the reason he's there.

214
00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:27,360
Speaker 5: I mean, that's the bottom mine. They're the reason he's there.

215
00:11:27,640 --> 00:11:30,560
Speaker 4: The mass importation of foreigners is what allows guys like

216
00:11:30,640 --> 00:11:32,040
Speaker 4: Mamdanni to win elections.

217
00:11:34,040 --> 00:11:36,880
Speaker 1: The demographics of New York City have changed enormously just

218
00:11:36,920 --> 00:11:39,319
Speaker 1: in the last ten or fifteen years, and what you've

219
00:11:39,320 --> 00:11:42,920
Speaker 1: said is completely true. It's one part of that coalition.

220
00:11:43,440 --> 00:11:45,400
Speaker 1: We hear a lot of talk about the other half

221
00:11:45,440 --> 00:11:48,760
Speaker 1: of mond Donnie's coalition, which is sort of downwardly mobile,

222
00:11:49,760 --> 00:11:53,679
Speaker 1: over educated, mostly millennials and gen z and he is

223
00:11:53,800 --> 00:11:57,160
Speaker 1: enormously popular with that coalition that is predominantly white, so

224
00:11:57,160 --> 00:12:00,640
Speaker 1: it's by no means his only coalition. But I think

225
00:12:00,679 --> 00:12:03,480
Speaker 1: this election was and I wrote in The American Mind

226
00:12:03,480 --> 00:12:05,800
Speaker 1: about it. I think this election was the first flex

227
00:12:05,960 --> 00:12:09,760
Speaker 1: of traditional ethnic block power that's been part of New

228
00:12:09,840 --> 00:12:11,280
Speaker 1: York City politics for a long time. But this is

229
00:12:11,280 --> 00:12:15,320
Speaker 1: the first flex of the massive Islamic immigration to the city.

230
00:12:15,880 --> 00:12:18,920
Speaker 1: I mean, I was surprised by the numbers. It's almost

231
00:12:19,000 --> 00:12:21,960
Speaker 1: nine percent of the city that is now Muslim. That

232
00:12:22,080 --> 00:12:25,760
Speaker 1: is an enormous ethnic voting block. And Mondami was the

233
00:12:25,760 --> 00:12:27,720
Speaker 1: first one to really take advantage of it. I remember

234
00:12:27,800 --> 00:12:32,120
Speaker 1: during the mayoral debates with Andrew Cuomo, Andrew Cuomo was

235
00:12:32,240 --> 00:12:35,240
Speaker 1: hit for not going moss to mosque asking for their

236
00:12:35,320 --> 00:12:38,439
Speaker 1: votes promising things in return. And I can guarantee you

237
00:12:38,520 --> 00:12:41,000
Speaker 1: Cuomo was probably the last New York Democrat to make

238
00:12:41,000 --> 00:12:43,600
Speaker 1: that mistake. I think every New York Democrat after this

239
00:12:43,720 --> 00:12:46,920
Speaker 1: is going to have to do retail politics at mosques

240
00:12:47,000 --> 00:12:51,439
Speaker 1: across New York City, and that is a major change

241
00:12:51,520 --> 00:12:53,920
Speaker 1: in the city's politics. I don't think for the good,

242
00:12:54,960 --> 00:12:57,280
Speaker 1: but yes, it's a direct result of the fact that

243
00:12:57,280 --> 00:13:00,679
Speaker 1: we have massively increased Muslim immigration to the States since

244
00:13:00,720 --> 00:13:01,240
Speaker 1: nine eleven.

245
00:13:03,640 --> 00:13:07,440
Speaker 4: How does the town that suffered nine to eleven have

246
00:13:07,559 --> 00:13:12,480
Speaker 4: a nine percent Muslim population, and is how does that happen?

247
00:13:12,640 --> 00:13:13,680
Speaker 4: How that shouldn't happen.

248
00:13:15,679 --> 00:13:19,439
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean you would think, but it absolutely happened,

249
00:13:19,480 --> 00:13:21,400
Speaker 1: and it happened kind of quietly, as I say, even

250
00:13:21,440 --> 00:13:22,880
Speaker 1: I was you know, I lived in the city, and

251
00:13:23,240 --> 00:13:26,440
Speaker 1: I was surprised to read the numbers. So there are

252
00:13:26,640 --> 00:13:29,440
Speaker 1: essentially these enclaves that live in different parts of Brooklyn

253
00:13:29,520 --> 00:13:33,040
Speaker 1: out near Bay Ridge. On Mandami's map, it was labeled

254
00:13:33,080 --> 00:13:35,800
Speaker 1: Little Palestine. Now apparently it's no longer Bay Ridge. It's

255
00:13:35,880 --> 00:13:40,559
Speaker 1: Little Palestine. And that's a somewhat accurate description of the neighborhood.

256
00:13:40,679 --> 00:13:44,720
Speaker 1: So because I've been there and I saw the demographics

257
00:13:44,720 --> 00:13:47,520
Speaker 1: of the people who are there, and so this has

258
00:13:47,520 --> 00:13:51,600
Speaker 1: happened very quickly. It's hard to overestimate how quickly this

259
00:13:51,640 --> 00:13:54,120
Speaker 1: has happened, because what since nine eleven, we're talking about

260
00:13:54,400 --> 00:13:57,800
Speaker 1: twenty five, you know, a quarter century basically, right, a

261
00:13:57,880 --> 00:14:02,400
Speaker 1: little bit more than that, and the numbers have just exploded.

262
00:14:02,440 --> 00:14:05,480
Speaker 1: There were negligible there was a negligible number of Muslims

263
00:14:05,480 --> 00:14:09,480
Speaker 1: in the city at the end of the twentieth century,

264
00:14:09,520 --> 00:14:11,200
Speaker 1: and now you're talking about nine percent of a city,

265
00:14:11,240 --> 00:14:13,120
Speaker 1: by the way, for comparison, people always talk about New

266
00:14:13,200 --> 00:14:15,360
Speaker 1: York City as being kind of a center of Jewish

267
00:14:15,360 --> 00:14:19,320
Speaker 1: life in America. It's nine percent Jewish, so those populations

268
00:14:19,360 --> 00:14:21,920
Speaker 1: are roughly equivalent. Now New York City is as Muslim

269
00:14:21,960 --> 00:14:24,440
Speaker 1: as it is Jewish.

270
00:14:24,600 --> 00:14:27,360
Speaker 4: Little Palestine sounds like a lovely place, all right, And

271
00:14:27,400 --> 00:14:30,320
Speaker 4: as let's focus on the Democrat Party as a whole,

272
00:14:30,360 --> 00:14:34,520
Speaker 4: because ma'am, Donnie is honestly probably the face of this

273
00:14:34,720 --> 00:14:38,960
Speaker 4: DSA movement, and I am so enjoying watching these Democrats

274
00:14:39,000 --> 00:14:40,960
Speaker 4: have to do the well, we're a big tent thing.

275
00:14:41,280 --> 00:14:44,240
Speaker 4: Did these people not understand this wolf is going to eat.

276
00:14:44,120 --> 00:14:45,000
Speaker 5: All of them?

277
00:14:46,440 --> 00:14:49,040
Speaker 1: It reminds me very much of the dynamic on the

278
00:14:49,120 --> 00:14:52,480
Speaker 1: right with the Tea Party, where the energy of the

279
00:14:52,480 --> 00:14:55,040
Speaker 1: base is clearly in one direction, the establishment of the

280
00:14:55,080 --> 00:14:57,720
Speaker 1: party is standing in the way, and you know that

281
00:14:57,080 --> 00:15:00,440
Speaker 1: that wall is going to be swept away at some point.

282
00:15:00,640 --> 00:15:02,560
Speaker 1: I don't enjoy it. I can't really enjoy it as

283
00:15:03,040 --> 00:15:05,160
Speaker 1: much as you, I guess, because it's one of those

284
00:15:05,200 --> 00:15:08,240
Speaker 1: things be careful what you wish for. You know, there

285
00:15:08,240 --> 00:15:11,320
Speaker 1: are two major parties in the United States, and if

286
00:15:11,360 --> 00:15:15,680
Speaker 1: one of them is wholly taken over by DSA outright

287
00:15:15,720 --> 00:15:20,040
Speaker 1: proponents of socialism, of communism, of Islamism. In many cases,

288
00:15:20,120 --> 00:15:23,479
Speaker 1: these things actually do hang together. This this anti colonial

289
00:15:23,920 --> 00:15:27,200
Speaker 1: mindset that sees America as the great Satan and Israel

290
00:15:27,280 --> 00:15:30,840
Speaker 1: as the little Satan. These these these things do actually

291
00:15:30,920 --> 00:15:34,800
Speaker 1: ideologically hang together, even though they have superficial contradictions that

292
00:15:34,840 --> 00:15:36,960
Speaker 1: people like to point out. And the thing that unifies

293
00:15:37,000 --> 00:15:38,800
Speaker 1: them is hatred of the West and hatred of America

294
00:15:38,800 --> 00:15:42,760
Speaker 1: in particular. And that is a very scary ideology to

295
00:15:42,880 --> 00:15:45,880
Speaker 1: have running one of America's two major parties that has,

296
00:15:45,920 --> 00:15:49,120
Speaker 1: you know, coins flip chance of always holding the government.

297
00:15:50,440 --> 00:15:53,200
Speaker 1: So I can't I can't enjoy that. Although, as we've

298
00:15:53,200 --> 00:15:56,320
Speaker 1: talked about many times, Jesse, you know, it's not like

299
00:15:56,360 --> 00:15:59,200
Speaker 1: it's that different from the Democratic establishment to begin with.

300
00:15:59,240 --> 00:16:02,240
Speaker 1: There's every opposite problem is in the Republican Party. And

301
00:16:02,280 --> 00:16:05,320
Speaker 1: the Republican Party people were mad. Voters were mad because

302
00:16:05,440 --> 00:16:08,440
Speaker 1: Republicans would go to their districts and promise to vote conservative,

303
00:16:08,480 --> 00:16:10,400
Speaker 1: and they would go to Washington, d C. And they

304
00:16:10,400 --> 00:16:12,840
Speaker 1: would vote moderate or even you know, left of moderate

305
00:16:13,080 --> 00:16:15,840
Speaker 1: when they actually you know, were casting their votes. It's

306
00:16:15,880 --> 00:16:19,360
Speaker 1: almost the opposite problem with Democrats. They the establishment of

307
00:16:19,400 --> 00:16:22,560
Speaker 1: the Democratic Party is not that different except for maybe

308
00:16:22,600 --> 00:16:26,359
Speaker 1: one or two issues, than their DSA flank on actual policy.

309
00:16:26,560 --> 00:16:30,360
Speaker 1: Look at you know, Schellenberger or Abigail Spamberger's agenda in

310
00:16:30,480 --> 00:16:33,560
Speaker 1: Virginia is not that different from the DSAS. The difference

311
00:16:33,560 --> 00:16:36,320
Speaker 1: between the moderates and the establishment people in the Democratic

312
00:16:36,360 --> 00:16:39,080
Speaker 1: Party and the DSA is simply how they speak and

313
00:16:39,160 --> 00:16:42,080
Speaker 1: how much they lie in public, and the DSA is

314
00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:45,080
Speaker 1: essentially telling their establishment no, like you're not allowed to

315
00:16:45,400 --> 00:16:48,080
Speaker 1: gloss over the radical aspects of us anymore. We want

316
00:16:48,080 --> 00:16:49,760
Speaker 1: to hear you say out loud that you want to

317
00:16:49,800 --> 00:16:50,720
Speaker 1: abolish the police.

318
00:16:52,760 --> 00:16:55,640
Speaker 4: Plusidize the effect of pulling the entire party to the left,

319
00:16:55,640 --> 00:16:59,480
Speaker 4: even if they lose elections. Speaking of losing elections, I

320
00:16:59,520 --> 00:17:04,879
Speaker 4: saw a pol Kathy Hochel's only up four against this Republican.

321
00:17:04,920 --> 00:17:07,520
Speaker 4: There's no chance a Republicans governor of New York, right.

322
00:17:09,240 --> 00:17:11,760
Speaker 1: I don't think of New York State as as liberal

323
00:17:11,880 --> 00:17:14,800
Speaker 1: as some people do. Coming from California, of course, my

324
00:17:14,920 --> 00:17:18,080
Speaker 1: standards are skewed in California. There is no hope. I'm

325
00:17:18,119 --> 00:17:20,720
Speaker 1: sorry for people who are sort of excited about Steve

326
00:17:20,800 --> 00:17:24,000
Speaker 1: Hilton but that's not going to happen, among many other reasons,

327
00:17:24,000 --> 00:17:27,199
Speaker 1: because the vote count is unreliable. But even if it

328
00:17:27,240 --> 00:17:30,440
Speaker 1: were reliable, California is a deep and deep, deep blue

329
00:17:30,480 --> 00:17:34,160
Speaker 1: state and I don't foresee in any intermediate future any

330
00:17:34,160 --> 00:17:38,240
Speaker 1: Republican having success at statewide in California. New York is

331
00:17:38,280 --> 00:17:41,960
Speaker 1: a bit different. Obviously, the city is very blue, but

332
00:17:42,000 --> 00:17:45,600
Speaker 1: the whole rest of the state in large part is

333
00:17:45,720 --> 00:17:48,919
Speaker 1: red or purple. Really what's going to swing the election

334
00:17:49,160 --> 00:17:54,359
Speaker 1: is whether there's a red shift among the kind of

335
00:17:54,359 --> 00:17:58,760
Speaker 1: of upper middle class mid counties that are above north

336
00:17:58,800 --> 00:18:01,159
Speaker 1: of New York City but south of Upstate and not

337
00:18:01,240 --> 00:18:04,440
Speaker 1: you know, out in the west. They're very populous, they're

338
00:18:04,520 --> 00:18:06,640
Speaker 1: very similar for people who are around the DC area,

339
00:18:06,760 --> 00:18:09,880
Speaker 1: very similar to like sort of northern Virginia. But they

340
00:18:09,920 --> 00:18:13,720
Speaker 1: do sometimes swing more or less Republican, and some of

341
00:18:13,760 --> 00:18:16,840
Speaker 1: these issues that Mondamie is pushing may really scare them.

342
00:18:16,880 --> 00:18:19,160
Speaker 1: Right if the fact that he put out a list

343
00:18:19,240 --> 00:18:22,880
Speaker 1: of everybody who has, you know, basically an apartment worth

344
00:18:22,920 --> 00:18:25,199
Speaker 1: over one million, which is almost all the arts in

345
00:18:25,280 --> 00:18:28,440
Speaker 1: New York City, that he put out a hit list

346
00:18:28,440 --> 00:18:30,639
Speaker 1: for those people that they now have to prove back

347
00:18:31,000 --> 00:18:33,480
Speaker 1: to the city that they have the right to be

348
00:18:33,560 --> 00:18:35,600
Speaker 1: there and that they don't have to pay this new tax.

349
00:18:35,640 --> 00:18:38,119
Speaker 1: Like it's totally flipped the burden right now. You have

350
00:18:38,200 --> 00:18:40,760
Speaker 1: to go to these city offices and prove that in

351
00:18:40,800 --> 00:18:43,720
Speaker 1: fact it is your residence, or that it's not worth

352
00:18:43,960 --> 00:18:46,520
Speaker 1: what the city is valuing it or whatever. So it's

353
00:18:46,520 --> 00:18:50,240
Speaker 1: put everybody in the essentially defense seat to not pay

354
00:18:50,280 --> 00:18:53,080
Speaker 1: this tax. I do think some of those things are

355
00:18:53,240 --> 00:18:57,000
Speaker 1: scary to the wealthy, sort of suburban part of New York.

356
00:18:57,119 --> 00:18:59,400
Speaker 1: So I look, if I had to bet, I would

357
00:18:59,440 --> 00:19:01,800
Speaker 1: bet against Republicans stay wide New York. But I don't

358
00:19:01,840 --> 00:19:04,640
Speaker 1: think it's as foregone a conclusion as it is in

359
00:19:04,680 --> 00:19:05,479
Speaker 1: some other states.

360
00:19:07,000 --> 00:19:08,400
Speaker 5: And as thank you, ma'am.

361
00:19:08,520 --> 00:19:12,399
Speaker 4: Come back, all right, we have to go across the country.

362
00:19:12,400 --> 00:19:14,760
Speaker 4: Now we just did New York City. Let's go talk

363
00:19:14,800 --> 00:19:19,600
Speaker 4: to John Phillips and find out about la next. Financial

365
00:19:24,359 --> 00:19:27,880
Speaker 4: I've been there before Bill's Pilot. It's just you can't

366
00:19:27,880 --> 00:19:30,000
Speaker 4: make the payments. I know what it's like. It's a horrible,

367
00:19:30,080 --> 00:19:34,920
Speaker 4: horrible feeling. Are you carrying high interest debt twenty thirty

368
00:19:34,960 --> 00:19:35,720
Speaker 4: percent on something?

369
00:19:36,240 --> 00:19:39,400
Speaker 5: Do you have a mortgage. I know what it feels

370
00:19:39,520 --> 00:19:41,119
Speaker 5: like to feel like you're never getting out of it.

371
00:19:41,560 --> 00:19:42,200
Speaker 5: You're drowning.

Speaker 5: This is not inevitable. It's not going to take forever.

379
00:20:07,800 --> 00:20:12,399
Speaker 4: American Financing has been helping people like you for a

384

Speaker 8: In the selection, let's stand for what we believe in

385
00:20:24,119 --> 00:20:28,679
Speaker 8: a city where we will finally solve homelessness, a city

386
00:20:28,720 --> 00:20:34,600
Speaker 8: where we are feeling safe but actually are safe, in

387
00:20:35,400 --> 00:20:38,760
Speaker 8: a city that doesn't price us out but actually counts

388
00:20:38,840 --> 00:20:43,240
Speaker 8: us in. So let's build Los Angeles together.

389
00:20:47,359 --> 00:20:48,760
Speaker 5: Sounds like things for going well?

390
00:20:49,080 --> 00:20:53,160
Speaker 4: Joining me now, John Phillips, host of the Accountability podcast

391
00:20:53,720 --> 00:20:56,880
Speaker 4: available at Johnny Don't like dot com all right? John

392
00:20:56,960 --> 00:21:01,280
Speaker 4: Well Garon Bass has actually flown to q for communist training,

393
00:21:01,480 --> 00:21:04,280
Speaker 4: so how are things in LA Because I was just

394
00:21:04,359 --> 00:21:07,320
Speaker 4: in LA recently and the ATMs are locked up behind

395
00:21:07,359 --> 00:21:10,040
Speaker 4: steel and cinderblock, and I don't know that I've felt

396
00:21:10,040 --> 00:21:12,199
Speaker 4: that unsafe walking through a city in America in a

397
00:21:12,280 --> 00:21:12,920
Speaker 4: very long time.

398
00:21:13,840 --> 00:21:16,159
Speaker 2: Well, it's not just the atm. So are the shamp

399
00:21:16,359 --> 00:21:18,960
Speaker 2: It's a shampoo. I mean, go to the target and

400
00:21:18,960 --> 00:21:23,240
Speaker 2: try to buy shampoo. It's behind bulletproof glass. I mean,

401
00:21:24,560 --> 00:21:28,320
Speaker 2: in my America, the only thing that should require bulletproof

402
00:21:28,359 --> 00:21:31,399
Speaker 2: glass is anyone making a movie with Alec Baldwin. But

403
00:21:31,520 --> 00:21:34,399
Speaker 2: that's the way we live here in Los Angeles. And

404
00:21:34,480 --> 00:21:37,520
Speaker 2: Karen Bass ran on the platform of fixing the homeless

405
00:21:37,520 --> 00:21:41,159
Speaker 2: problem in Los Angeles because ever since we took this

406
00:21:41,240 --> 00:21:46,840
Speaker 2: permissive attitude about drugs and started emptying the prisons, funny

407
00:21:46,880 --> 00:21:51,040
Speaker 2: thing happened. Retail theft shot through the roof. Homeless encampment

408
00:21:51,119 --> 00:21:54,240
Speaker 2: started popping up everywhere, and she said it was her

409
00:21:54,359 --> 00:21:58,080
Speaker 2: number one priority. Well, we just had a new homeless

410
00:21:58,080 --> 00:22:02,199
Speaker 2: count in Los Angeles and the numbers went up. And

411
00:22:02,320 --> 00:22:06,640
Speaker 2: Karen Bass is blaming Donald Trump, She's blaming Gavin Newsom

412
00:22:06,800 --> 00:22:09,520
Speaker 2: at the state level, despite the fact that if you

413
00:22:09,560 --> 00:22:13,680
Speaker 2: look at homeless numbers nationally, it's really not that big

414
00:22:13,720 --> 00:22:18,119
Speaker 2: of a problem in many places in California, it's spiking.

415
00:22:18,600 --> 00:22:24,080
Speaker 2: In Los Angeles specifically, it's spiking, and she's blaming the

416
00:22:24,119 --> 00:22:28,280
Speaker 2: federal government because that's what she does. Now, that was

417
00:22:28,280 --> 00:22:31,719
Speaker 2: her number one priority. If you take that off the table,

418
00:22:31,800 --> 00:22:34,280
Speaker 2: we have the fact that we've burned down the Palisades

419
00:22:34,320 --> 00:22:37,280
Speaker 2: with the fires. We have a city that is broke.

420
00:22:37,800 --> 00:22:40,480
Speaker 2: We have a police department that does not have the

421
00:22:40,520 --> 00:22:43,800
Speaker 2: personnel they need to police the city on a daily basis,

422
00:22:44,240 --> 00:22:47,239
Speaker 2: let alone prepared for the Olympics when they come to

423
00:22:47,240 --> 00:22:51,000
Speaker 2: town in twenty twenty eight. It's a disaster for Karen Bass. Now,

424
00:22:51,040 --> 00:22:53,280
Speaker 2: she may think there's light at the end of the tunnel,

425
00:22:53,480 --> 00:22:55,560
Speaker 2: but I think that light is a train that's headed

426
00:22:56,040 --> 00:22:57,359
Speaker 2: right for her.

427
00:22:58,040 --> 00:23:01,400
Speaker 4: Okay, let's focus on this homeless because I honestly, it's

428
00:23:01,400 --> 00:23:04,119
Speaker 4: not like I haven't seen homeless people before. It was

429
00:23:04,320 --> 00:23:07,800
Speaker 4: amazing in Los Angeles to see how it's everywhere and

430
00:23:07,880 --> 00:23:11,920
Speaker 4: they're in the freaking storm drains. What specifically have they

431
00:23:12,000 --> 00:23:14,800
Speaker 4: done there that has caused it to be the mecca

432
00:23:14,960 --> 00:23:15,639
Speaker 4: for hobos.

433
00:23:17,280 --> 00:23:20,160
Speaker 2: Well, they've told the cops to look the other way

434
00:23:20,240 --> 00:23:24,399
Speaker 2: when the homeless do things like shoot up drugs in public,

435
00:23:25,200 --> 00:23:30,080
Speaker 2: or crimes associated with poverty, so stealing mail, stealing packages,

436
00:23:30,560 --> 00:23:34,680
Speaker 2: stealing bicycles, all of those sorts of things. The cops

437
00:23:34,720 --> 00:23:39,120
Speaker 2: really don't enforce a lot of those violations because they

438
00:23:39,160 --> 00:23:41,840
Speaker 2: know that the political will at city hall is not

439
00:23:42,040 --> 00:23:45,119
Speaker 2: there for them, so they just drive by and wave

440
00:23:45,200 --> 00:23:48,639
Speaker 2: when they see criminal activity going on in these homeless encampments.

441
00:23:49,400 --> 00:23:53,120
Speaker 2: We give them money, we give them social services. We're

442
00:23:53,119 --> 00:23:56,200
Speaker 2: spending millions and millions and millions of dollars on these

443
00:23:56,240 --> 00:24:01,800
Speaker 2: homeless services NGOs, these organizations that Spencer really rein against,

444
00:24:02,119 --> 00:24:05,880
Speaker 2: where they'll give them cigarettes, they'll give them drug paraphernalia,

445
00:24:06,200 --> 00:24:08,359
Speaker 2: they'll take care of them in any number of ways

446
00:24:08,400 --> 00:24:11,320
Speaker 2: that you wouldn't have access to. Things you wouldn't have

447
00:24:11,320 --> 00:24:14,120
Speaker 2: access to in North Dakota or you know, West Virginia

448
00:24:14,200 --> 00:24:16,560
Speaker 2: or some other part of the country. So we are

449
00:24:16,600 --> 00:24:20,240
Speaker 2: a bum magnet and we are attracting a lot of

450
00:24:20,280 --> 00:24:23,119
Speaker 2: people with a lot of problems from all over the

451
00:24:23,160 --> 00:24:26,359
Speaker 2: country to come here. And that is the reason the

452
00:24:26,440 --> 00:24:28,520
Speaker 2: numbers are going up. When you look at where these

453
00:24:28,560 --> 00:24:31,119
Speaker 2: people are from, they are not a lot of home

454
00:24:31,200 --> 00:24:35,520
Speaker 2: grown California bums. We're bringing in the drug addicts from

455
00:24:35,560 --> 00:24:38,360
Speaker 2: all over the country, and they're living on our streets

456
00:24:38,359 --> 00:24:39,960
Speaker 2: because we're willing to tolerate it.

457
00:24:41,520 --> 00:24:44,440
Speaker 5: Okay, So I mean, I guess I just have.

458
00:24:44,480 --> 00:24:49,360
Speaker 4: To ask what can be done, because from what I understand, John,

459
00:24:49,400 --> 00:24:52,080
Speaker 4: these freaking bums are voting, at least that's the rumor

460
00:24:52,080 --> 00:24:56,199
Speaker 4: that they're being handed ballots. If the elections are so

461
00:24:56,400 --> 00:25:00,920
Speaker 4: corrupt in Los Angeles you mentioned Spencer PRNT, what can

462
00:25:00,960 --> 00:25:01,679
Speaker 4: be done?

463
00:25:02,920 --> 00:25:07,680
Speaker 2: Well? The Democratic Party has to become offended at living

464
00:25:07,720 --> 00:25:11,400
Speaker 2: this way and for whatever reason, and part of it

465
00:25:11,440 --> 00:25:14,280
Speaker 2: is because many of them with money live in areas

466
00:25:14,320 --> 00:25:19,280
Speaker 2: that are inoculated from these problems. But they have endless

467
00:25:19,320 --> 00:25:24,879
Speaker 2: supplies of tolerance of living like this. Why I don't know,

468
00:25:25,280 --> 00:25:30,160
Speaker 2: but it just doesn't seem to bother them. You look

469
00:25:30,720 --> 00:25:34,680
Speaker 2: at how you know the voting patterns in Los Angeles,

470
00:25:34,760 --> 00:25:38,399
Speaker 2: voting patterns in Long Beach and other cities here in

471
00:25:38,440 --> 00:25:44,040
Speaker 2: southern California. And if the Democratic candidate loses, the one

472
00:25:44,080 --> 00:25:47,480
Speaker 2: who's most likely to beat them is a DSA candidate

473
00:25:47,840 --> 00:25:52,040
Speaker 2: who thinks that the Democrats don't go far enough and

474
00:25:52,080 --> 00:25:54,639
Speaker 2: nothing is going to change in the state until the

475
00:25:54,640 --> 00:25:59,720
Speaker 2: people start voting differently, and because Democrats outnumber Republicans by

476
00:25:59,720 --> 00:26:04,160
Speaker 2: such large numbers, nothing is going to change until Democrats

477
00:26:04,320 --> 00:26:07,840
Speaker 2: start being offended at the condition of our state. And

478
00:26:08,000 --> 00:26:10,240
Speaker 2: I just don't see that happening anytime soon.

479
00:26:11,760 --> 00:26:14,560
Speaker 4: Let's talk about Spencer for a second, John, because it's

480
00:26:14,600 --> 00:26:17,600
Speaker 4: one of those situations where he clearly has a gift

481
00:26:17,800 --> 00:26:21,399
Speaker 4: for it. He was very, very sharp, awesome campaigner, but

482
00:26:21,560 --> 00:26:24,080
Speaker 4: you know, swimming against the ocean trying to run in

483
00:26:24,280 --> 00:26:26,320
Speaker 4: LA it is what it is that we all knew,

484
00:26:26,359 --> 00:26:28,080
Speaker 4: everyone with the brain knew what way that was going

485
00:26:28,119 --> 00:26:31,400
Speaker 4: to go. But I would like to see that guy

486
00:26:31,520 --> 00:26:34,520
Speaker 4: not just tossed aside now, right, There's got to be

487
00:26:34,840 --> 00:26:39,000
Speaker 4: some political future, somehow, some way for Spencer Print.

488
00:26:39,880 --> 00:26:43,600
Speaker 2: Well, he's indicated that his days as a candidate are over,

489
00:26:44,320 --> 00:26:47,680
Speaker 2: but he is going to be very active on social

490
00:26:47,720 --> 00:26:51,880
Speaker 2: media at calling out all of the corruption, calling out

491
00:26:51,920 --> 00:26:54,960
Speaker 2: all of the misdeeds that are going on at Los

492
00:26:55,000 --> 00:26:57,679
Speaker 2: Angeles City Hall. And what he's going to try to

493
00:26:57,760 --> 00:27:01,600
Speaker 2: do is shame and embarrass them into either leaving the

494
00:27:01,640 --> 00:27:04,879
Speaker 2: public arena or I guess changing whatever it is that

495
00:27:04,960 --> 00:27:07,800
Speaker 2: they do, or if you really push it to a

496
00:27:07,800 --> 00:27:11,440
Speaker 2: certain point, maybe change the patterns of the voters here

497
00:27:11,560 --> 00:27:14,760
Speaker 2: in Los Angeles, and he has a huge following on

498
00:27:14,800 --> 00:27:19,320
Speaker 2: social media. He's someone who appears on various programs. He's

499
00:27:19,560 --> 00:27:22,920
Speaker 2: appeared on my radio program twice. He's very good. People

500
00:27:22,960 --> 00:27:25,320
Speaker 2: think that he's dumb, people think that he's not well read.

501
00:27:25,400 --> 00:27:28,119
Speaker 2: None of that is true. He's a guy who really

502
00:27:28,280 --> 00:27:32,600
Speaker 2: deeply understands the problems that we're facing here in California,

503
00:27:32,640 --> 00:27:36,480
Speaker 2: and he has solutions to offer. But at this point

504
00:27:36,520 --> 00:27:40,959
Speaker 2: being a candidate is probably futile because he had just

505
00:27:41,000 --> 00:27:44,399
Speaker 2: about everything break his way in the primary in terms

506
00:27:44,440 --> 00:27:48,479
Speaker 2: of winning the debate, having the ads on social media

507
00:27:48,520 --> 00:27:53,200
Speaker 2: that got the most views, having interviews with the big programs.

508
00:27:53,200 --> 00:27:56,120
Speaker 2: He went on Joe Rogan and others that really went

509
00:27:56,240 --> 00:27:59,199
Speaker 2: viral and went all over the place. He was in

510
00:27:59,240 --> 00:28:03,040
Speaker 2: the water when wavehead and even that wasn't good enough

511
00:28:03,160 --> 00:28:06,840
Speaker 2: to get onto the November ballot. So I don't blame

512
00:28:06,920 --> 00:28:09,919
Speaker 2: him for not wanting to be a candidate anymore. And

513
00:28:10,000 --> 00:28:13,120
Speaker 2: I think that he's looking at his skill set and goes, Okay,

514
00:28:13,520 --> 00:28:16,119
Speaker 2: I know how to draw attention to these problems. I

515
00:28:16,200 --> 00:28:19,480
Speaker 2: know how to publicly humiliate these people. If I can't

516
00:28:19,520 --> 00:28:21,879
Speaker 2: get into office, and change it that way. I'm going

517
00:28:21,960 --> 00:28:23,280
Speaker 2: to make life miserable for them.

518
00:28:25,280 --> 00:28:28,280
Speaker 4: You mentioned Karen Bass and k Newsome, that there's some

519
00:28:28,480 --> 00:28:32,160
Speaker 4: friction there, and just curious about this California coalition because

520
00:28:32,200 --> 00:28:37,280
Speaker 4: there's obviously a car wreck coming between between Dome and Newsom.

521
00:28:37,520 --> 00:28:41,880
Speaker 5: Is Karen Bass Dome? Are? Are they allies?

522
00:28:43,160 --> 00:28:46,400
Speaker 2: Well, they're all kind of frenemies. Don't forget it was

523
00:28:46,800 --> 00:28:50,760
Speaker 2: Kamala who knifed Karen Bass to get the vice presidency

524
00:28:50,800 --> 00:28:53,880
Speaker 2: in the first place. Those two were the two that

525
00:28:53,920 --> 00:28:57,880
Speaker 2: were on the finals list for Joe Biden, and it

526
00:28:57,960 --> 00:29:00,760
Speaker 2: was Kamala's people that put all the name give stories

527
00:29:00,800 --> 00:29:04,480
Speaker 2: out about Karen Bass, about her going to Cuba and

528
00:29:04,560 --> 00:29:08,920
Speaker 2: her flirting with communism, and all of those stories that

529
00:29:08,960 --> 00:29:12,760
Speaker 2: didn't come from the conservative news media that came from

530
00:29:13,080 --> 00:29:17,160
Speaker 2: Kamala Harris and her political consultants here in California, to

531
00:29:17,200 --> 00:29:20,360
Speaker 2: the point to where when she was offered the vice presidency,

532
00:29:20,880 --> 00:29:24,080
Speaker 2: Biden said, you cannot bring any of your California people

533
00:29:24,160 --> 00:29:26,760
Speaker 2: with you, because I'm going to be the next one

534
00:29:26,800 --> 00:29:29,960
Speaker 2: to get knifed in the back. Since then, the two

535
00:29:30,000 --> 00:29:33,960
Speaker 2: of them have made up Bass and Kamala, But I

536
00:29:33,960 --> 00:29:36,160
Speaker 2: don't think they trust each other as far as they

537
00:29:36,160 --> 00:29:40,800
Speaker 2: can throw her. They're all competitors in one way or another,

538
00:29:41,320 --> 00:29:43,200
Speaker 2: So I don't think there's a whole lot of trust

539
00:29:43,280 --> 00:29:45,960
Speaker 2: going on between those three in any permutation.

540
00:29:47,640 --> 00:29:50,480
Speaker 4: Final one for me, John, what's going on with Gavin

541
00:29:50,560 --> 00:29:52,360
Speaker 4: Newsom's ex mistress?

542
00:29:54,200 --> 00:29:57,600
Speaker 2: Okay, so she now has a memoir that's coming out

543
00:29:57,840 --> 00:30:01,800
Speaker 2: where she talks about their affair, and her version of

544
00:30:01,920 --> 00:30:05,640
Speaker 2: the affair is very different than his. He said that

545
00:30:05,720 --> 00:30:09,480
Speaker 2: it was very brief and he ended it. She's saying,

546
00:30:09,720 --> 00:30:11,840
Speaker 2: none of that is true. It went on for a

547
00:30:11,920 --> 00:30:15,760
Speaker 2: long time, and they had sex basically every place they

548
00:30:15,800 --> 00:30:19,240
Speaker 2: could in the state of California, including bars and other

549
00:30:19,360 --> 00:30:24,240
Speaker 2: public places. She said that his come online to her

550
00:30:24,640 --> 00:30:27,120
Speaker 2: when he decided that he was going to pursue her

551
00:30:27,720 --> 00:30:30,800
Speaker 2: was look at you. You lost all the baby fat.

552
00:30:31,680 --> 00:30:35,200
Speaker 2: And that was enough to get her interested, which I mean,

553
00:30:36,280 --> 00:30:39,560
Speaker 2: I don't know you know how he thought that was

554
00:30:39,600 --> 00:30:41,720
Speaker 2: going to play. You walk up to someone and go, oh,

555
00:30:41,720 --> 00:30:43,760
Speaker 2: you're less fat than you used to be. That's that's

556
00:30:43,800 --> 00:30:47,760
Speaker 2: pretty good. But it was enough for her, and she's

557
00:30:47,880 --> 00:30:51,880
Speaker 2: upset because not only did he mischaracterize, according to her,

558
00:30:51,960 --> 00:30:55,800
Speaker 2: their relationship in his book, he sent his wife out

559
00:30:55,840 --> 00:31:00,040
Speaker 2: to publicly attack her and to shame her, and so

560
00:31:00,320 --> 00:31:04,280
Speaker 2: after her in public forums. So this woman who had

561
00:31:04,280 --> 00:31:07,320
Speaker 2: her marriage destroyed, she ended up in rehab. I guess

562
00:31:07,320 --> 00:31:11,680
Speaker 2: she had a massive drug problem and alcohol problem. She

563
00:31:12,480 --> 00:31:16,840
Speaker 2: believes that Gavin Newsom destroyed her life and then lied

564
00:31:16,920 --> 00:31:21,040
Speaker 2: about the nature of their relationship. So my guess is

565
00:31:21,160 --> 00:31:23,440
Speaker 2: when this book comes out, there will be even more

566
00:31:23,480 --> 00:31:26,760
Speaker 2: details than what we read in Vanity Fair from the

567
00:31:26,840 --> 00:31:30,000
Speaker 2: excerpts that were just published. And I am here for

568
00:31:30,040 --> 00:31:33,320
Speaker 2: it because don't forget Gavin. If he's going to win

569
00:31:33,360 --> 00:31:37,120
Speaker 2: the Democratic nomination for president, he's going to have to

570
00:31:37,200 --> 00:31:41,400
Speaker 2: do it with overwhelming support among Democratic women, and there's

571
00:31:41,480 --> 00:31:44,240
Speaker 2: no way to talk about this story without him looking

572
00:31:44,640 --> 00:31:45,640
Speaker 2: really really bad.

573
00:31:47,360 --> 00:31:49,920
Speaker 4: Well, she may to be careful with that alcohol. That's

574
00:31:49,920 --> 00:31:52,560
Speaker 4: how you get the baby fat mat Con. John, Thank you, brother,

575
00:31:52,600 --> 00:31:53,680
Speaker 4: I appreciate it so much.

576
00:31:56,680 --> 00:31:57,480
Speaker 5: We have more. Next.

577
00:31:58,520 --> 00:32:03,400
Speaker 4: I love veteran leg companies for obvious reasons. I think

578
00:32:03,440 --> 00:32:07,320
Speaker 4: that our corporate world there's such a lack of patriotism there,

579
00:32:07,720 --> 00:32:09,720
Speaker 4: and when you get a company that's led by someone

580
00:32:09,760 --> 00:32:12,040
Speaker 4: who's fought for this country, you at least know you're

581
00:32:12,080 --> 00:32:15,160
Speaker 4: getting that. Now pure Talk is led by a very

582
00:32:15,160 --> 00:32:19,320
Speaker 4: special gentleman. He did not one, but two tours with

583
00:32:19,560 --> 00:32:24,040
Speaker 4: mac Vsog in Vietnam. You know, those behind enemy lines

584
00:32:24,080 --> 00:32:25,560
Speaker 4: guys we watch movies about.

585
00:32:25,760 --> 00:32:27,400
Speaker 5: Yeah, that's the guy who leads Pure Talk.

586
00:32:28,040 --> 00:32:30,560
Speaker 4: You ever wonder why they don't participate in Pride Month,

587
00:32:31,280 --> 00:32:36,120
Speaker 4: why they hire Americans who speak English, Why they'll charge

588
00:32:36,120 --> 00:32:38,400
Speaker 4: you less, no contract, no cancelation fee.

589
00:32:38,840 --> 00:32:39,800
Speaker 5: Pure talk does it right.

590
00:32:39,800 --> 00:32:42,760
Speaker 4: Oh and by the way, all this and they're on

591
00:32:42,880 --> 00:32:45,680
Speaker 4: the exact same towers as the big guys. You're not

592
00:32:45,760 --> 00:32:48,880
Speaker 4: sacrificing anything. You can keep your phone, you can keep

593
00:32:48,920 --> 00:32:51,520
Speaker 4: your number, but do make the switch stop paying those

594
00:32:51,560 --> 00:33:24,840
Speaker 4: other companies. Puretalk dot com, Slash, Jesse TV. I'm sorry,

595
00:33:24,880 --> 00:33:27,480
Speaker 4: it makes me laugh. These people are so shameless. I

596
00:33:27,480 --> 00:33:30,920
Speaker 4: almost admire it. Joining me now my friend calling us

597
00:33:30,920 --> 00:33:34,320
Speaker 4: with Townhall dot com Dustin, Greg, Dustin, I'm sorry, it

598
00:33:34,360 --> 00:33:36,080
Speaker 4: makes me snicker. And I have to sit there and

599
00:33:36,200 --> 00:33:39,480
Speaker 4: gut down that whatever slot was on the table and

600
00:33:39,600 --> 00:33:42,040
Speaker 4: have to pretend like you're enjoying it. It makes me smile.

601
00:33:42,080 --> 00:33:42,680
Speaker 5: I'm a bad.

602
00:33:42,560 --> 00:33:47,200
Speaker 3: Person, no, Jacobrice. I mean, this guy will do anything

603
00:33:47,280 --> 00:33:50,440
Speaker 3: to get elected, and because he's in Minneapolis, he does

604
00:33:50,480 --> 00:33:52,920
Speaker 3: have to rely on a certain population that is highly

605
00:33:52,960 --> 00:33:57,080
Speaker 3: densely populated in the Cedar Rapids neighborhood in Minneapolis. And

606
00:33:57,280 --> 00:33:59,600
Speaker 3: that's kind of where we get to that point right

607
00:33:59,640 --> 00:34:02,440
Speaker 3: there with Jacob Prye. But it's not just that. I mean,

608
00:34:02,760 --> 00:34:05,680
Speaker 3: this guy will go out of his way to every

609
00:34:05,800 --> 00:34:09,640
Speaker 3: different group in Minneapolis, not just the Somali neighborhoods. He'll

610
00:34:09,680 --> 00:34:12,520
Speaker 3: even go and buy for Republican support. Because although I

611
00:34:12,600 --> 00:34:15,240
Speaker 3: do believe Jacob Prye is the worst mayor in the country.

612
00:34:15,560 --> 00:34:17,760
Speaker 3: I mean, this is the man who let Minneapolis burn.

613
00:34:18,560 --> 00:34:21,160
Speaker 3: It could be even worse because we could have had

614
00:34:21,200 --> 00:34:24,000
Speaker 3: Omar Fete as our mayor, which would have been an

615
00:34:24,080 --> 00:34:28,319
Speaker 3: even bigger downgrade from Jacob Frye. So just to go

616
00:34:28,400 --> 00:34:31,000
Speaker 3: to show it could be so much worse in Minneapolis.

617
00:34:31,040 --> 00:34:33,319
Speaker 3: But we have to hand it to you, Jacob Prye,

618
00:34:33,360 --> 00:34:35,319
Speaker 3: you might be worse than Mom Donnie in many of

619
00:34:35,320 --> 00:34:38,920
Speaker 3: these cases. Other than it maybe some fiscal policy. But like,

620
00:34:39,800 --> 00:34:41,720
Speaker 3: it's wild what this man will do to get elected

621
00:34:41,760 --> 00:34:43,719
Speaker 3: and stay relevant. But this is what he has to do.

622
00:34:43,760 --> 00:34:45,720
Speaker 3: He has to hold off a little bit longer until

623
00:34:45,719 --> 00:34:48,520
Speaker 3: he eventually runs for governor or Congress. One day, because

624
00:34:48,520 --> 00:34:51,120
Speaker 3: that's his goal at the end of the days. But yeah,

625
00:34:51,120 --> 00:34:52,960
Speaker 3: he's got to maintain a spot as mayor for now

626
00:34:53,000 --> 00:34:53,200
Speaker 3: in the.

627
00:34:53,200 --> 00:34:54,960
Speaker 5: Meantime, Dustin.

628
00:34:55,080 --> 00:35:00,000
Speaker 4: How powerful is the Somali contingent of Minnesota? Obviously everybody

629
00:35:00,120 --> 00:35:02,160
Speaker 4: nationally we see the headlines, right and you see some

630
00:35:02,360 --> 00:35:05,600
Speaker 4: internet video, but reality is oftentimes different.

631
00:35:05,680 --> 00:35:07,880
Speaker 5: Are what are they? Are they fifty percent of the city?

632
00:35:08,520 --> 00:35:09,080
Speaker 5: What are they?

633
00:35:10,400 --> 00:35:14,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, so it's a significant block of the Democrat primary voters.

634
00:35:14,760 --> 00:35:18,120
Speaker 3: Now scope of the actual state one hundred and fifty

635
00:35:18,160 --> 00:35:21,960
Speaker 3: thousand people, five millionaire Minnesota, it's like you're not going

636
00:35:22,040 --> 00:35:24,160
Speaker 3: to be shaking up it that much of that regard.

637
00:35:24,520 --> 00:35:28,600
Speaker 3: But in regard to two specific communities Minneapolis Saint Paul

638
00:35:28,760 --> 00:35:32,239
Speaker 3: as one and another Saint Cloud, Minnesota. Saint Cloud is

639
00:35:32,239 --> 00:35:36,080
Speaker 3: an example, is the single largest flip district in the

640
00:35:36,080 --> 00:35:39,560
Speaker 3: state of Minnesota. But as a significant Somali population, when

641
00:35:39,600 --> 00:35:42,360
Speaker 3: it comes to the general election, that community as actually

642
00:35:42,560 --> 00:35:45,279
Speaker 3: greatly affects the general election. But when it comes to

643
00:35:45,320 --> 00:35:48,800
Speaker 3: like Minneapolis Saint Paul, they just help run the actual

644
00:35:48,880 --> 00:35:52,640
Speaker 3: primary system. That's how you get ilhan Omar, Keith Ellison

645
00:35:52,680 --> 00:35:55,640
Speaker 3: and all these other different reps and senators who predominantly

646
00:35:55,680 --> 00:35:59,080
Speaker 3: come from just these areas. And we had another podcaster

647
00:35:59,200 --> 00:36:01,040
Speaker 3: come at one point of space down the name here,

648
00:36:01,040 --> 00:36:03,319
Speaker 3: but he did an interview where he just went door

649
00:36:03,400 --> 00:36:07,520
Speaker 3: door interviewing Somali's and one of the individuals, very well educated,

650
00:36:07,560 --> 00:36:10,960
Speaker 3: was an engineer, I believe, ended up basically saying, yeah,

651
00:36:11,000 --> 00:36:14,520
Speaker 3: I'm from Virginia, but I moved to Minneapolis because this

652
00:36:14,680 --> 00:36:18,920
Speaker 3: is the central power of Somali culture. When we come

653
00:36:19,040 --> 00:36:23,000
Speaker 3: here and we actually build up our community together, we

654
00:36:23,120 --> 00:36:26,719
Speaker 3: have political power in capital. Set it straight up. It

655
00:36:26,760 --> 00:36:29,000
Speaker 3: was kind of bizarre to just say that out loud,

656
00:36:29,000 --> 00:36:32,399
Speaker 3: like I moved from Virginia to Minneapolis so we could

657
00:36:32,480 --> 00:36:35,840
Speaker 3: gain political power, and it is a part of the system.

658
00:36:35,880 --> 00:36:38,240
Speaker 3: And that is how you now see even ilhan Omar

659
00:36:38,320 --> 00:36:40,959
Speaker 3: now we saw her sister is now involved with a

660
00:36:41,080 --> 00:36:46,920
Speaker 3: multi million dollar fraud scheme involving USAID funding and shared

661
00:36:46,960 --> 00:36:51,960
Speaker 3: a address with that USAID organization with a feeding our

662
00:36:52,000 --> 00:36:55,480
Speaker 3: future address that was used. So it is a scheme,

663
00:36:55,719 --> 00:36:58,480
Speaker 3: it is a plot, and right there at the center

664
00:36:58,520 --> 00:37:02,800
Speaker 3: in the entire country is Minneapolis, Minnesota.

665
00:37:02,960 --> 00:37:08,200
Speaker 4: Thust and Tim Wallas's problems are well chronicled, might be

666
00:37:08,239 --> 00:37:11,000
Speaker 4: in some legal trouble not sure how far that's going,

667
00:37:11,080 --> 00:37:14,279
Speaker 4: but it's just hard for me to believe none of

668
00:37:14,280 --> 00:37:17,360
Speaker 4: that stink bled down to Jacob Fry.

669
00:37:17,920 --> 00:37:20,400
Speaker 5: Is he in the limelight at all for any of

670
00:37:20,440 --> 00:37:22,200
Speaker 5: this stuff? Well?

671
00:37:22,239 --> 00:37:26,000
Speaker 3: Absolutely, I mean even Jacob Pry's wife worked for the

672
00:37:26,040 --> 00:37:29,839
Speaker 3: attorney's office that represented Feeding our Future. They helped set

673
00:37:29,880 --> 00:37:33,640
Speaker 3: the paperwork to start the organization. But just the only

674
00:37:33,680 --> 00:37:36,960
Speaker 3: reason it really hasn't hit Jacob Pry too badly is

675
00:37:37,000 --> 00:37:39,839
Speaker 3: because who was his opponent. It was Omar Fete, who

676
00:37:39,880 --> 00:37:42,600
Speaker 3: is literally in the room with Amy Bach, the leader

677
00:37:42,640 --> 00:37:45,680
Speaker 3: of Feeding our Future, celebrating the good work that they do,

678
00:37:46,000 --> 00:37:49,000
Speaker 3: so like it could be so much worse, but Jacob

679
00:37:49,000 --> 00:37:52,640
Speaker 3: prie Is just unfortunately had the best opponents he could

680
00:37:52,640 --> 00:37:55,479
Speaker 3: possibly ask for. Otherwise I do think this guy would

681
00:37:55,480 --> 00:37:58,799
Speaker 3: have been gone already. But the Democrats in the DSA

682
00:37:58,920 --> 00:38:02,879
Speaker 3: keep putting up even more corrupt individuals that actually helped

683
00:38:02,880 --> 00:38:05,000
Speaker 3: shield this guy a little bit. So that's kind of

684
00:38:05,000 --> 00:38:06,320
Speaker 3: the makeup of that situation.

685
00:38:07,320 --> 00:38:11,000
Speaker 4: Dustin, what's the crime situation again? I see statistics haven't

686
00:38:11,000 --> 00:38:14,279
Speaker 4: been in Minnesota in years. What's the reality of if

687
00:38:14,320 --> 00:38:19,440
Speaker 4: I fly in tomorrow and I'm walking around downtown Minneapolis Yeah.

688
00:38:19,239 --> 00:38:21,400
Speaker 3: As long as you get proper security, which we're actually

689
00:38:21,400 --> 00:38:25,440
Speaker 3: working on a major event here with xxusy Sophie Cunningham's

690
00:38:25,480 --> 00:38:28,440
Speaker 3: coming on Sunday, so like we have great security for

691
00:38:28,480 --> 00:38:31,120
Speaker 3: that event. So when you have that, it's great if

692
00:38:31,160 --> 00:38:34,319
Speaker 3: you're just an average person walking down the street. We've

693
00:38:34,360 --> 00:38:38,320
Speaker 3: done statistics on this where like it's technically more dangerous

694
00:38:38,320 --> 00:38:41,600
Speaker 3: to walking downtown Minneapolis than to go to Israel right

695
00:38:41,640 --> 00:38:44,600
Speaker 3: now in the middle of war. You're far more likely

696
00:38:44,680 --> 00:38:47,520
Speaker 3: to get jumped or different things like that in the

697
00:38:48,120 --> 00:38:51,600
Speaker 3: city of Minneapolis. And most recently we actually had data

698
00:38:51,640 --> 00:38:55,200
Speaker 3: come back that said Minneapolis has had the largest increase

699
00:38:55,239 --> 00:38:58,440
Speaker 3: of any city in the country for a car thefts

700
00:38:58,520 --> 00:39:01,799
Speaker 3: and robberies, different things like that, uh, just coming into

701
00:39:01,840 --> 00:39:05,560
Speaker 3: the city. But also get this, Jesse coming back to

702
00:39:05,640 --> 00:39:09,000
Speaker 3: Jacob Fry a little of tying him into this. Minneapolis

703
00:39:09,400 --> 00:39:12,920
Speaker 3: has actually finally been ordered after over probably about a

704
00:39:12,960 --> 00:39:16,160
Speaker 3: decade's worth of time here they have been falling short

705
00:39:16,160 --> 00:39:19,640
Speaker 3: of their city charter requirements for the minimum allotment to

706
00:39:19,680 --> 00:39:23,000
Speaker 3: police officers. They've now been ordered by a judge to

707
00:39:23,200 --> 00:39:26,120
Speaker 3: fulfill that by January. To now put in perspective, that's

708
00:39:26,160 --> 00:39:28,920
Speaker 3: one hundred officers. They haven't been able to hire that

709
00:39:28,960 --> 00:39:30,960
Speaker 3: over the course of years, but now they have till

710
00:39:31,040 --> 00:39:35,520
Speaker 3: January to cover that. But that's created this giant situation

711
00:39:35,600 --> 00:39:38,120
Speaker 3: where Minneapolis just isn't safe because they don't even have

712
00:39:38,239 --> 00:39:42,319
Speaker 3: enough officers to fill the minimum requirements to do so.

713
00:39:42,560 --> 00:39:46,120
Speaker 3: And because they're also a fiscal mess as well. I mean,

714
00:39:46,440 --> 00:39:50,120
Speaker 3: o'marcuta again would have been even worse. But they're staring

715
00:39:50,160 --> 00:39:53,400
Speaker 3: down the barrel of a thirty two million dollar budget

716
00:39:53,520 --> 00:39:56,520
Speaker 3: gap deficit. So if they were to maintain everything it

717
00:39:56,600 --> 00:39:59,319
Speaker 3: is right now, they're thirty two million dollars in the hole.

718
00:39:59,360 --> 00:40:02,839
Speaker 3: So they the cuts and hire these officers. I mean,

719
00:40:03,040 --> 00:40:06,719
Speaker 3: it's a complete mess. And again Jacob Price is technically

720
00:40:06,760 --> 00:40:09,560
Speaker 3: one of the better members in this situation. They almost

721
00:40:09,640 --> 00:40:12,920
Speaker 3: they're one member away from a DSA majority on the

722
00:40:12,920 --> 00:40:15,160
Speaker 3: Minneapolis City Council and even still a lot of the

723
00:40:15,200 --> 00:40:18,440
Speaker 3: mainstream members they still vote with the DSA ninety percent

724
00:40:18,440 --> 00:40:22,160
Speaker 3: of the time. So it's a complete mess here in Minneapolis.

725
00:40:22,200 --> 00:40:27,000
Speaker 3: And because of the DSA, their fiscal instability, the crime

726
00:40:27,080 --> 00:40:29,920
Speaker 3: that has run rapid and their inability to actually address

727
00:40:29,960 --> 00:40:34,240
Speaker 3: it has compounded into this situation that we see today.

728
00:40:34,480 --> 00:40:37,160
Speaker 3: And it's an absolute disaster unless you come in and

729
00:40:37,239 --> 00:40:39,760
Speaker 3: hire private security. It's just not safe.

730
00:40:41,160 --> 00:40:41,760
Speaker 5: It's creef.

731
00:40:41,960 --> 00:40:45,440
Speaker 4: Okay, Dustin, let's focus. Let's try to nail down on this.

732
00:40:45,480 --> 00:40:49,359
Speaker 4: When we hear one hundred officers by January, they haven't

733
00:40:49,360 --> 00:40:52,239
Speaker 4: been able to feel it. As you already pointed out

734
00:40:51,840 --> 00:40:55,319
Speaker 4: that to me, screams we're gonna have a bunch of

735
00:40:55,360 --> 00:40:58,640
Speaker 4: dirt balls becoming police officers in Minneapolis. That I just

736
00:40:58,640 --> 00:41:01,640
Speaker 4: don't see any other way around that. Yeah.

737
00:41:01,719 --> 00:41:04,919
Speaker 3: No, And to that point too, I live in Wright County,

738
00:41:05,040 --> 00:41:09,160
Speaker 3: so we're one county line over from Hennepin. In Minneapolis,

739
00:41:09,320 --> 00:41:11,640
Speaker 3: we have one of the best police departments in the

740
00:41:11,400 --> 00:41:14,360
Speaker 3: in the entire state. We have the largest department for

741
00:41:14,560 --> 00:41:20,280
Speaker 3: patrol officers. We have senior officers from these metro county

742
00:41:20,360 --> 00:41:24,000
Speaker 3: departments taking up to I've seen up to forty thousand

743
00:41:24,040 --> 00:41:27,759
Speaker 3: dollars a year pay decreases so they could come work

744
00:41:27,800 --> 00:41:31,800
Speaker 3: out here in a community where they actually respect law enforcement.

745
00:41:31,880 --> 00:41:35,759
Speaker 3: So they're taking massive pay cuts. They're best officers are

746
00:41:35,800 --> 00:41:39,200
Speaker 3: coming out here to work in for inferior pay, just

747
00:41:39,280 --> 00:41:41,279
Speaker 3: for a better situation. But what's going to happen, As

748
00:41:41,280 --> 00:41:44,080
Speaker 3: you mentioned, you're going to have, you know, not the

749
00:41:44,080 --> 00:41:46,640
Speaker 3: best of the batch. You know, a law enforcement generally,

750
00:41:46,680 --> 00:41:49,160
Speaker 3: my waterline's pretty high. If you're in law enforcement, you're

751
00:41:49,760 --> 00:41:53,000
Speaker 3: trusted individual, but you're going to get the least experienced

752
00:41:53,040 --> 00:41:57,440
Speaker 3: and potentially corrupt in some cases individuals going and working

753
00:41:57,520 --> 00:42:00,600
Speaker 3: for the worst situation in the country. I mean, let's

754
00:42:00,600 --> 00:42:02,840
Speaker 3: not say the state of Minnesota. Being an officer in

755
00:42:02,920 --> 00:42:06,319
Speaker 3: the city of Minneapolis is probably the worst job you

756
00:42:06,360 --> 00:42:09,080
Speaker 3: could possibly ask for. If you're just your fourth day

757
00:42:09,080 --> 00:42:13,800
Speaker 3: on the job, Jesse, and you oversee someone having an overdose,

758
00:42:13,960 --> 00:42:17,520
Speaker 3: you can go to prison for years just by witnessing

759
00:42:17,560 --> 00:42:19,919
Speaker 3: it on your fourth day on the job. And that's

760
00:42:19,920 --> 00:42:22,480
Speaker 3: what happened during the George Floyd riots. And it has

761
00:42:22,520 --> 00:42:25,160
Speaker 3: scattered now into this we now we see metro surge,

762
00:42:25,480 --> 00:42:28,520
Speaker 3: and quite frankly, there's no end in sight. The next

763
00:42:28,520 --> 00:42:31,560
Speaker 3: time something happens, it's gonna hit Minneapolis again, and it's

764
00:42:31,560 --> 00:42:35,640
Speaker 3: gonna with all these compounded failures, it's just gonna get worse.

765
00:42:37,360 --> 00:42:39,440
Speaker 4: Final one from me, I know you guys have a

766
00:42:39,480 --> 00:42:42,440
Speaker 4: primary coming up, and I know that Mike Lindell, who

767
00:42:42,520 --> 00:42:45,880
Speaker 4: had the Trump indors has the Trump endorsement, was fairly

768
00:42:45,960 --> 00:42:50,440
Speaker 4: comfortably ahead as loudly and repeatedly now called for some

769
00:42:50,680 --> 00:42:53,560
Speaker 4: form of amnesty. Where's all this thing going.

770
00:42:54,920 --> 00:42:57,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's a complete mess here on the ground when

771
00:42:57,120 --> 00:42:59,279
Speaker 3: it comes to that now. Granted, Mike, I think he

772
00:42:59,480 --> 00:43:02,360
Speaker 3: was at twenty one percent pretty comfortably. That's kind of

773
00:43:02,360 --> 00:43:06,319
Speaker 3: his base support here in Minnesota before the endorsement. I

774
00:43:06,320 --> 00:43:09,759
Speaker 3: think Lisa Damuth was around thirty two percent. Now she's

775
00:43:09,800 --> 00:43:12,240
Speaker 3: lost a couple percent points, as well as the endorsed

776
00:43:12,239 --> 00:43:15,440
Speaker 3: Republican candidate Kendall Walls, who was about twenty six percent.

777
00:43:15,719 --> 00:43:19,480
Speaker 3: Now it's completely flipped around. Now Lindell's probably up by

778
00:43:19,560 --> 00:43:23,160
Speaker 3: six after that endorsement, But this was before amnesty came out,

779
00:43:23,560 --> 00:43:26,120
Speaker 3: and this was before new fundraising numbers came out. I

780
00:43:26,120 --> 00:43:28,720
Speaker 3: think we saw recently Lindell only has like eighty thousand

781
00:43:28,719 --> 00:43:31,319
Speaker 3: dollars cash on hand, and he can't even run a

782
00:43:31,360 --> 00:43:35,239
Speaker 3: Facebook ad. Is his campaign has complained because they've never

783
00:43:35,280 --> 00:43:39,279
Speaker 3: attempted to run one till yesterday, so they don't. They

784
00:43:39,280 --> 00:43:42,040
Speaker 3: have no ability to run ads or do any type

785
00:43:42,040 --> 00:43:45,320
Speaker 3: of actual campaign work, and they're only up six points

786
00:43:45,400 --> 00:43:48,480
Speaker 3: right now, and that was before amnesty hits. So I

787
00:43:48,760 --> 00:43:51,880
Speaker 3: do foresee Lisa Damuth winning that primary, and for the

788
00:43:51,880 --> 00:43:53,920
Speaker 3: sake of Minnesota's I hope we win it, and not

789
00:43:54,000 --> 00:43:57,279
Speaker 3: even for the sake of winning the governorship. Amy's an

790
00:43:57,360 --> 00:44:00,080
Speaker 3: uphill climb and I'm acknowledging that right here right now

791
00:44:00,080 --> 00:44:05,239
Speaker 3: to everyone. But if Mike Lindell is our candidate one independence,

792
00:44:05,560 --> 00:44:07,120
Speaker 3: they're gonna be tough to come by for him. It

793
00:44:07,239 --> 00:44:09,480
Speaker 3: just is for obvious reasons that we probably already know.

794
00:44:09,719 --> 00:44:12,799
Speaker 3: It's Minnesota, it's a tough state. But also you've now

795
00:44:12,800 --> 00:44:16,239
Speaker 3: turned off the megabase. Now we're gonna be letting illegals

796
00:44:16,280 --> 00:44:18,839
Speaker 3: come into this country. I mean, he was already down

797
00:44:18,840 --> 00:44:21,080
Speaker 3: twenty points, it could be thirty points if he's turning

798
00:44:21,080 --> 00:44:23,359
Speaker 3: off the megabase on top of that, I really hope

799
00:44:23,360 --> 00:44:25,880
Speaker 3: we don't end up nominating the guy. But yeah, he's

800
00:44:25,960 --> 00:44:28,040
Speaker 3: running in circles, and you know, a lot of that

801
00:44:28,080 --> 00:44:31,720
Speaker 3: I think is more due to his business actually, because

802
00:44:31,719 --> 00:44:34,040
Speaker 3: when you come out like this in your customer base

803
00:44:34,080 --> 00:44:36,799
Speaker 3: are mega pillow buyers, and all of a sudden you

804
00:44:36,840 --> 00:44:40,680
Speaker 3: come against the number one issue for America first policies.

805
00:44:41,120 --> 00:44:43,319
Speaker 3: I mean, people are out here burning pillows. I've heard

806
00:44:43,360 --> 00:44:46,359
Speaker 3: of literally two cases of someone burning their pillows because

807
00:44:46,360 --> 00:44:48,560
Speaker 3: they're so upset with about it. So we'll kind of

808
00:44:48,560 --> 00:44:50,640
Speaker 3: see how that primary shakes out. We were not going

809
00:44:50,719 --> 00:44:53,080
Speaker 3: to know exactly how it ends up turning on till

810
00:44:53,120 --> 00:44:55,560
Speaker 3: it actually happens. That's fourteen days away from now, thirteen

811
00:44:55,600 --> 00:44:58,759
Speaker 3: days away from now and now. But overall, yeah, on

812
00:44:58,800 --> 00:45:01,040
Speaker 3: the ground, they're pretty upse said about it. Will it

813
00:45:01,080 --> 00:45:03,640
Speaker 3: be Will the Trump endorsement be able to pull him

814
00:45:03,840 --> 00:45:06,120
Speaker 3: just over the edge? We'll see, but it's gonna be

815
00:45:06,120 --> 00:45:07,640
Speaker 3: a nailbiter. I will tell you that.

816
00:45:10,680 --> 00:45:14,759
Speaker 5: That's the Thank you, brother, I appreciate it. All right.

817
00:45:15,960 --> 00:45:18,400
Speaker 5: Do you know what time it is? We're gonna have

818
00:45:18,400 --> 00:45:21,439
Speaker 5: to pick a winner? Thanks? All right?

819
00:45:21,840 --> 00:45:24,319
Speaker 4: You know, we can't have a competition in a conversation

820
00:45:24,560 --> 00:45:27,279
Speaker 4: like this without actually picking a winner. But I'm here

821
00:45:27,320 --> 00:45:30,960
Speaker 4: to tell you it's not Jacob Fry, it's not Karen Bass,

822
00:45:31,920 --> 00:45:35,400
Speaker 4: it's not even Ma'm donnie. The worst mayor in the

823
00:45:35,520 --> 00:45:39,200
Speaker 4: United States of America is Brandon Johnson of Chicago. And look,

824
00:45:39,200 --> 00:45:42,120
Speaker 4: I understand we just heard everybody make a very good

825
00:45:42,200 --> 00:45:46,880
Speaker 4: case for the monster that runs their particular city. I

826
00:45:46,920 --> 00:45:50,640
Speaker 4: wrap your mind around this. This guy is the mayor

827
00:45:50,680 --> 00:45:51,240
Speaker 4: of Chicago.

828
00:45:51,680 --> 00:45:54,200
Speaker 9: Some detractors that will push back on me and say,

829
00:45:54,560 --> 00:45:56,800
Speaker 9: you know, the only thing that the mayor talks about

830
00:45:57,440 --> 00:46:00,000
Speaker 9: is the hiring of black people. Know what I'm saying

831
00:46:00,360 --> 00:46:03,439
Speaker 9: is when you hire our people, we always look out

832
00:46:03,480 --> 00:46:07,520
Speaker 9: for everybody else. We are the most generous people on

833
00:46:07,560 --> 00:46:13,520
Speaker 9: the planet. I don't know too many cultures that have

834
00:46:13,680 --> 00:46:16,759
Speaker 9: play cousins. That's how generous we are. We just make

835
00:46:16,840 --> 00:46:20,279
Speaker 9: somebody a family member, right, This is how we are.

836
00:46:21,400 --> 00:46:25,839
Speaker 9: And so business and economic neighborhood development. The deputy mayor

837
00:46:26,239 --> 00:46:30,719
Speaker 9: is a black woman. Department of Planning Development it's a

838
00:46:30,760 --> 00:46:36,240
Speaker 9: black woman. Infrastructure deputy mayor is a black woman. Chief

839
00:46:36,280 --> 00:46:41,160
Speaker 9: operations officer is a black man. Budget director it's a

840
00:46:41,239 --> 00:46:46,160
Speaker 9: black woman. Senior advisor is a black man. And I'm

841
00:46:46,280 --> 00:46:48,960
Speaker 9: laying that out because when you ask how do we

842
00:46:49,160 --> 00:46:54,600
Speaker 9: ensure that our people get a chance to grow their business?

843
00:46:58,800 --> 00:47:04,080
Speaker 4: You made a black woman the director. That's certainly a

844
00:47:04,160 --> 00:47:07,840
Speaker 4: choice either way. You know how cool Chicago is. Have

845
00:47:07,880 --> 00:47:09,840
Speaker 4: you ever been to Chicago. I've been a couple of times.

846
00:47:10,520 --> 00:47:13,000
Speaker 4: You know how hard you have to work to paint

847
00:47:13,040 --> 00:47:13,520
Speaker 4: that city.

848
00:47:14,000 --> 00:47:15,719
Speaker 5: But he did it. He did it.

849
00:47:16,600 --> 00:47:19,239
Speaker 4: Brandon Johnson's the worst mayor in America. We'll do it again.

850
00:47:25,280 --> 00:47:27,680
Speaker 4: I would thank you for coming to my YouTube channel,
