1 00:00:01,120 --> 00:00:04,320 Speaker 1: You are listening to the Tutor Dixon podcast and you 2 00:00:04,720 --> 00:00:08,320 Speaker 1: probably heard my podcast a few days ago about Sheridan 3 00:00:08,320 --> 00:00:13,240 Speaker 1: Gorman who was senselessly murdered in Chicago, a young girl 4 00:00:13,320 --> 00:00:15,960 Speaker 1: eighteen years old. I think that we can all relate 5 00:00:16,000 --> 00:00:18,520 Speaker 1: to this as parents. Most of the people that are listening, 6 00:00:18,960 --> 00:00:22,759 Speaker 1: I know you all have children of your own. Her 7 00:00:22,800 --> 00:00:25,439 Speaker 1: parents sent her to college for her first year, and 8 00:00:25,480 --> 00:00:28,960 Speaker 1: not just any college, to Loyola. And when you send 9 00:00:28,960 --> 00:00:32,080 Speaker 1: your daughter to Loyola, you are sending your kid to 10 00:00:32,159 --> 00:00:35,479 Speaker 1: a university that has a great reputation. You have to 11 00:00:35,520 --> 00:00:37,600 Speaker 1: be smart, you have to be one of the top 12 00:00:37,640 --> 00:00:40,680 Speaker 1: students in your class. You're going to a big city. 13 00:00:41,159 --> 00:00:44,440 Speaker 1: You should be safe. They sent their daughter there and 14 00:00:44,479 --> 00:00:47,560 Speaker 1: probably celebrated sending their daughter there. And then you heard 15 00:00:47,560 --> 00:00:50,000 Speaker 1: my podcast where I said she decided to go off 16 00:00:50,040 --> 00:00:53,960 Speaker 1: with friends one night, like any college student would do, 17 00:00:54,480 --> 00:00:57,440 Speaker 1: to take pictures, just to go out and take pictures. 18 00:00:57,440 --> 00:01:00,640 Speaker 1: They thought they might catch the northern lights. But she 19 00:01:00,880 --> 00:01:05,919 Speaker 1: was brutally murdered by an illegal alien that night because 20 00:01:05,959 --> 00:01:07,559 Speaker 1: she went to the end of a peer and you'll 21 00:01:07,600 --> 00:01:09,840 Speaker 1: hear that she was shot in the head. And I 22 00:01:09,920 --> 00:01:12,360 Speaker 1: just want to say that the newspapers at the end 23 00:01:12,400 --> 00:01:15,560 Speaker 1: of last week, just kind of in the fine print, 24 00:01:15,600 --> 00:01:18,040 Speaker 1: they said, Oh, turns out it wasn't. Actually she was 25 00:01:18,080 --> 00:01:19,600 Speaker 1: shot in the head. She was shot in the back. 26 00:01:19,760 --> 00:01:22,520 Speaker 1: So we know she ran, We know she saw this guy. 27 00:01:22,560 --> 00:01:24,920 Speaker 1: We don't know what was said, but we know that 28 00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:28,800 Speaker 1: this girl knew her life was in danger. This eighteen 29 00:01:28,880 --> 00:01:32,919 Speaker 1: year old child turned and ran, and this guy shot 30 00:01:32,959 --> 00:01:36,360 Speaker 1: her in the back and killed her. This story, you 31 00:01:36,560 --> 00:01:40,720 Speaker 1: think it's not common, It is way too common. There 32 00:01:40,760 --> 00:01:43,560 Speaker 1: are way too many. There are thousands of what we 33 00:01:43,640 --> 00:01:47,400 Speaker 1: call angel families out there that have lost their child 34 00:01:47,560 --> 00:01:52,400 Speaker 1: or their family member, someone they love to an illegal alien, 35 00:01:53,120 --> 00:01:56,960 Speaker 1: someone who came into this country illegally and committed a crime. 36 00:01:57,080 --> 00:02:00,160 Speaker 1: And we have one of those parents with us today. 37 00:02:00,640 --> 00:02:05,080 Speaker 1: Just a year ago, January nineteenth, twenty twenty five, Joe 38 00:02:05,080 --> 00:02:10,600 Speaker 1: Abraham's daughter Katie was killed in Urbana, Illinois, in Illinois, 39 00:02:10,639 --> 00:02:15,000 Speaker 1: again by an illegal immigrant who was a drunk driver, 40 00:02:15,400 --> 00:02:17,520 Speaker 1: slammed into the back of her car. And I have 41 00:02:17,560 --> 00:02:20,960 Speaker 1: to tell you this is not an unusual story either, 42 00:02:21,040 --> 00:02:24,400 Speaker 1: because I have told you guys before, I've met with 43 00:02:24,520 --> 00:02:29,000 Speaker 1: many families. In twenty nineteen, met with eighteen families who 44 00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:31,680 Speaker 1: had lost someone to an illegal immigrant, and it was 45 00:02:31,760 --> 00:02:35,040 Speaker 1: shocking the number of people who had been killed because 46 00:02:35,880 --> 00:02:40,480 Speaker 1: this person was drunk and just recklessly killed them in 47 00:02:40,520 --> 00:02:43,640 Speaker 1: their car. And Joe, I know that's your story, and 48 00:02:43,720 --> 00:02:46,600 Speaker 1: I am just so grateful that you were here to share. 49 00:02:46,680 --> 00:02:50,080 Speaker 1: Katie was twenty just twenty years old, her whole life 50 00:02:50,080 --> 00:02:52,320 Speaker 1: ahead of her, and she was taken from you. 51 00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:55,760 Speaker 2: She was absolutely ripped from us. 52 00:02:55,919 --> 00:03:03,600 Speaker 3: And it's rather distressing when you hear everyone defending sanctuary 53 00:03:03,639 --> 00:03:08,000 Speaker 3: policies and trying to tear down Ice and denigrade Ice 54 00:03:08,400 --> 00:03:10,560 Speaker 3: about how they are separating families. 55 00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:14,400 Speaker 2: So Katie was, you know, minding her business, living her 56 00:03:14,480 --> 00:03:17,400 Speaker 2: life now and all honestly, between you and I, I 57 00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:19,800 Speaker 2: didn't really like the fact that she was going to Urbana, 58 00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:24,720 Speaker 2: that's where the University of Illinois is located, just because 59 00:03:24,760 --> 00:03:28,080 Speaker 2: we are sanctuary and a lot of these this state 60 00:03:28,120 --> 00:03:30,640 Speaker 2: puts a lot of people in these smaller towns along 61 00:03:30,639 --> 00:03:34,160 Speaker 2: with Cook County, but it's a larger county. But and 62 00:03:34,240 --> 00:03:36,600 Speaker 2: just a side note, all three of my kids did 63 00:03:36,600 --> 00:03:39,120 Speaker 2: not go to college in Illinois. I would I would 64 00:03:39,200 --> 00:03:41,520 Speaker 2: try to persuade anyone that wants to send their kid 65 00:03:41,640 --> 00:03:44,880 Speaker 2: to Illinois to a university here not to do that. 66 00:03:44,920 --> 00:03:47,280 Speaker 2: There are other schools they can go to and safer places. 67 00:03:47,640 --> 00:03:49,680 Speaker 1: I just have to say, it is blowing my mind 68 00:03:49,720 --> 00:03:52,440 Speaker 1: what you're saying right now. Because I grew up in Illinois. 69 00:03:52,680 --> 00:03:56,200 Speaker 1: My class kind of split between the University of Iowa 70 00:03:56,240 --> 00:03:58,720 Speaker 1: and the University of Illinois. Most of the kids went 71 00:03:58,800 --> 00:04:03,600 Speaker 1: to one of those two universities. And you think, to me, 72 00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:08,040 Speaker 1: you think that Champagne Orbana, where the University of Illinois is, 73 00:04:08,560 --> 00:04:11,680 Speaker 1: it's like a farm town. You think that's safe. Like 74 00:04:11,840 --> 00:04:14,720 Speaker 1: I think, okay, being on the streets of Chicago, that's 75 00:04:15,120 --> 00:04:19,559 Speaker 1: somewhat dangerous. But being in Urbana what you just said 76 00:04:19,560 --> 00:04:21,760 Speaker 1: about like, I knew it was dangerous because they send 77 00:04:21,800 --> 00:04:24,720 Speaker 1: people there. We don't know this, we are That is 78 00:04:24,760 --> 00:04:27,159 Speaker 1: a shocking statement to me. We don't know this, and 79 00:04:27,240 --> 00:04:30,560 Speaker 1: yet that is what sanctuary policies create. 80 00:04:31,920 --> 00:04:35,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, I will. You know. I was there the other day, 81 00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:38,719 Speaker 2: down where Katie. Her birthday was Saturday, so I was 82 00:04:38,760 --> 00:04:42,360 Speaker 2: down where she took her last breaths in Urbana. Go 83 00:04:42,440 --> 00:04:45,760 Speaker 2: walk around ur Bana and tell me that it's a safe, small, 84 00:04:46,040 --> 00:04:49,279 Speaker 2: quietin college town. All I have to say is, don't 85 00:04:49,279 --> 00:04:51,080 Speaker 2: send your kids there. That's all I have to say. 86 00:04:51,200 --> 00:04:53,760 Speaker 2: So Katie went down that weekend just with some friends. 87 00:04:54,200 --> 00:04:56,920 Speaker 2: They were five of them at vehicle and they were 88 00:04:57,080 --> 00:05:01,240 Speaker 2: at a stop like idol and we're smashed in from 89 00:05:01,279 --> 00:05:05,839 Speaker 2: the rear at almost eighty miles an hour. Wow, and Katie, 90 00:05:06,200 --> 00:05:08,920 Speaker 2: you know to go back to the whole, you know, Oh, 91 00:05:09,040 --> 00:05:13,320 Speaker 2: families are being separated. They're so evil and cruel. Why 92 00:05:13,320 --> 00:05:17,599 Speaker 2: does my family and families like mine get zero consideration? 93 00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:20,800 Speaker 2: What do I mean by that? Katie was ripped from 94 00:05:20,920 --> 00:05:23,800 Speaker 2: us by someone who should never been here. This was 95 00:05:23,880 --> 00:05:27,120 Speaker 2: not an American duy driving. Yes, we have those deaths 96 00:05:27,200 --> 00:05:30,839 Speaker 2: every day. Those are different that people cannot seem to 97 00:05:30,839 --> 00:05:34,800 Speaker 2: make the distinction. If this person was not in our communities, 98 00:05:35,560 --> 00:05:38,159 Speaker 2: Katie would be alive today. It wasn't a citizen that 99 00:05:38,279 --> 00:05:42,159 Speaker 2: rammed into them. So my only point there is that 100 00:05:42,520 --> 00:05:46,480 Speaker 2: we have been separated, we have been disappeared. I will 101 00:05:46,560 --> 00:05:49,279 Speaker 2: know the difference. I will never see Katie again. She's 102 00:05:49,279 --> 00:05:51,160 Speaker 2: in the grave. I'm kind of in the grave with her. 103 00:05:51,360 --> 00:05:53,360 Speaker 2: That's how bad it is when you're going through this. 104 00:05:53,960 --> 00:05:58,120 Speaker 2: But there's no consideration for us, or were supposed to 105 00:05:58,160 --> 00:06:01,600 Speaker 2: shut our miles if we talking about it we're cruel 106 00:06:01,680 --> 00:06:04,800 Speaker 2: and racists and bigots, and this is what they use 107 00:06:04,839 --> 00:06:07,600 Speaker 2: their tactic to shut you down and shut you up. 108 00:06:08,040 --> 00:06:10,320 Speaker 2: But I won't be What are they gonna do. I'm 109 00:06:10,360 --> 00:06:11,960 Speaker 2: in a grave with Katie. What are they gonna do? 110 00:06:12,120 --> 00:06:14,120 Speaker 2: Come physically hurt me. I would love to see them 111 00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:17,960 Speaker 2: so they That's what they don't seem to understand. And 112 00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:22,560 Speaker 2: we get no consideration, not from the state leaders, not 113 00:06:22,680 --> 00:06:25,880 Speaker 2: from a lot large part of the you know, citizens 114 00:06:25,880 --> 00:06:28,840 Speaker 2: who are very you know, their north star is their ideology. 115 00:06:29,360 --> 00:06:31,720 Speaker 2: And so they look at you and say, why is 116 00:06:31,800 --> 00:06:35,000 Speaker 2: Katie special? People die every day because of drunk drivers. 117 00:06:35,040 --> 00:06:35,480 Speaker 2: Katie's not. 118 00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:38,680 Speaker 1: You know. That is that drives me crazy and I 119 00:06:38,760 --> 00:06:41,520 Speaker 1: hear that argument all the time. We have a lot 120 00:06:41,560 --> 00:06:44,279 Speaker 1: of criminals that are Americans, and the fact of the 121 00:06:44,279 --> 00:06:47,000 Speaker 1: matter is that's true, and that is what we need 122 00:06:47,040 --> 00:06:50,359 Speaker 1: to be policing. That's what our focus needs to be. 123 00:06:50,520 --> 00:06:53,720 Speaker 1: When we have police officers, when we have police departments, 124 00:06:53,760 --> 00:06:57,080 Speaker 1: when we have a federal law enforcement, they need to 125 00:06:57,080 --> 00:07:00,800 Speaker 1: be focused on Americans that are hurting Americas and making 126 00:07:00,839 --> 00:07:03,440 Speaker 1: sure our streets are safe. Why would we add more? 127 00:07:03,720 --> 00:07:07,160 Speaker 1: Why would we just knowingly add more? That's what I 128 00:07:07,279 --> 00:07:11,080 Speaker 1: just cannot understand. And you've got these no kings rallies. 129 00:07:11,320 --> 00:07:14,720 Speaker 1: And I will say I just saw a tweet before 130 00:07:14,880 --> 00:07:17,960 Speaker 1: I came in here that was from a woman who 131 00:07:18,040 --> 00:07:21,000 Speaker 1: is running for state senate or US Senate, I should say. 132 00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:23,120 Speaker 1: She's a state senator in the state of Michigan. Her 133 00:07:23,200 --> 00:07:26,480 Speaker 1: name is Mallory McMorrow. She's running for US Senate right now, 134 00:07:26,680 --> 00:07:29,400 Speaker 1: and she just did this video where she said, this 135 00:07:29,560 --> 00:07:34,640 Speaker 1: is outrageous that Republicans are not funding TSA because they're 136 00:07:34,680 --> 00:07:37,720 Speaker 1: insistent that they fund ICE. We cannot fund ICE. We 137 00:07:37,800 --> 00:07:40,920 Speaker 1: have to fund TSA. And I think to myself, why 138 00:07:41,240 --> 00:07:44,119 Speaker 1: is this am I in like opposite land. Do people 139 00:07:44,200 --> 00:07:46,760 Speaker 1: not really look at this and go, how could you 140 00:07:46,920 --> 00:07:51,120 Speaker 1: possibly say that we should keep our airport safe and 141 00:07:51,200 --> 00:07:54,920 Speaker 1: our airlines safe, but we shouldn't keep our cities safe. 142 00:07:55,040 --> 00:07:58,080 Speaker 1: How do you take how do you make those two separate? 143 00:07:58,320 --> 00:08:01,120 Speaker 1: How do you decide that one is more important than 144 00:08:01,120 --> 00:08:06,200 Speaker 1: the other. Because the idea that this guy in Chicago 145 00:08:06,480 --> 00:08:10,040 Speaker 1: or this guy in Urbana who took the lives of 146 00:08:10,120 --> 00:08:13,400 Speaker 1: two beautiful young women, and like I said, it happens 147 00:08:13,800 --> 00:08:17,560 Speaker 1: across the country every single day, how can you say 148 00:08:17,840 --> 00:08:19,680 Speaker 1: that that is not important? 149 00:08:21,440 --> 00:08:25,880 Speaker 2: So I agree with you. It's a complete deflection and 150 00:08:26,600 --> 00:08:30,240 Speaker 2: really just kind of besides the point, right, the fact 151 00:08:30,280 --> 00:08:33,439 Speaker 2: that we have crime or naturalized citizens number one, I 152 00:08:33,480 --> 00:08:35,520 Speaker 2: think that's the bumped. I don't believe that for a second. 153 00:08:35,720 --> 00:08:39,320 Speaker 2: They're manipulating some statistics. I know about statistics. You could 154 00:08:39,320 --> 00:08:42,160 Speaker 2: have them say twelve different things. So they're manipulating that. 155 00:08:42,240 --> 00:08:44,280 Speaker 2: But let's just for the sake of this argument, say 156 00:08:44,320 --> 00:08:49,560 Speaker 2: that's true. So is our logical end here? We don't 157 00:08:49,559 --> 00:08:51,880 Speaker 2: have enough crime, so we'll import crime and we won't 158 00:08:51,920 --> 00:08:54,720 Speaker 2: filter people out that will make crime. Is that where 159 00:08:54,720 --> 00:08:57,280 Speaker 2: we're headed? Or we don't have enough drunk drivers here? 160 00:08:57,360 --> 00:09:01,120 Speaker 2: Now we need more to come in. Look in Illinois, 161 00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:05,320 Speaker 2: we're bleeding citizens. And so you can't even take care 162 00:09:05,360 --> 00:09:08,080 Speaker 2: of the people you have in this state. You have 163 00:09:08,520 --> 00:09:11,079 Speaker 2: failed the people in the state. So now what's your 164 00:09:11,080 --> 00:09:13,680 Speaker 2: solution to bring in another half a million people? You 165 00:09:13,760 --> 00:09:18,320 Speaker 2: can't handle. You have nothing. As far as it's so incoherent, 166 00:09:19,240 --> 00:09:20,960 Speaker 2: all it's. 167 00:09:20,720 --> 00:09:23,480 Speaker 1: Just it's nasty. I mean, it's just nasty. And I 168 00:09:23,559 --> 00:09:27,320 Speaker 1: thought Lori Lightfoot was like the worst when she was mayor. 169 00:09:27,480 --> 00:09:31,280 Speaker 1: I was like, this woman is the worst mayor you 170 00:09:31,320 --> 00:09:34,560 Speaker 1: could imagine but you can never say that with leftists 171 00:09:34,600 --> 00:09:38,800 Speaker 1: now because Brandon Johnson, what he did last week is 172 00:09:39,400 --> 00:09:43,240 Speaker 1: so unforgivable, and the fact that there could even be anybody, 173 00:09:43,320 --> 00:09:46,559 Speaker 1: even on the left, that could say, you had a 174 00:09:46,600 --> 00:09:49,400 Speaker 1: young woman die on your streets at the hands of 175 00:09:49,400 --> 00:09:52,440 Speaker 1: an illegal immigrant who should have had to leave the country, 176 00:09:52,960 --> 00:09:57,720 Speaker 1: who came in illegally and was convicted of crimes, should 177 00:09:57,760 --> 00:10:00,920 Speaker 1: have been deported, And if I had been allowed in 178 00:10:00,960 --> 00:10:04,480 Speaker 1: your city probably would have or even the National Guard 179 00:10:04,559 --> 00:10:09,560 Speaker 1: when the President offered to help keep Chicago safer. No, 180 00:10:10,080 --> 00:10:13,240 Speaker 1: this guy rolls out a new snowpile and celebrates the 181 00:10:13,360 --> 00:10:15,120 Speaker 1: name as abolish ice. 182 00:10:16,720 --> 00:10:18,760 Speaker 2: You know, I was asked a question today on Fox 183 00:10:18,800 --> 00:10:21,640 Speaker 2: earlier this morning in America's newsroom, and they wanted me 184 00:10:21,720 --> 00:10:26,040 Speaker 2: to respond to Mayor Johnson's comments last week, and I 185 00:10:26,040 --> 00:10:28,520 Speaker 2: said I would not. He is not a serious person. 186 00:10:28,880 --> 00:10:31,520 Speaker 2: He's silly. He's like a silly person. I won't waste 187 00:10:31,600 --> 00:10:32,480 Speaker 2: my breath. 188 00:10:32,800 --> 00:10:35,240 Speaker 1: But it's silly person that has too much power. 189 00:10:35,760 --> 00:10:38,640 Speaker 2: Exactly, he's a silly person. And more importantly, he's a 190 00:10:38,720 --> 00:10:43,439 Speaker 2: dangerous person. I don't want to engage in a dangerous 191 00:10:43,679 --> 00:10:46,280 Speaker 2: I don't want I hope Chicago's smart is up on that, 192 00:10:46,880 --> 00:10:49,160 Speaker 2: but I suspect they might not, but I hope they do. 193 00:10:49,840 --> 00:10:52,079 Speaker 1: But how do these people get elected though? I mean, 194 00:10:52,120 --> 00:10:55,520 Speaker 1: we really don't understand how this is happening. 195 00:10:56,280 --> 00:11:02,319 Speaker 2: I'm a lifelong Illinois and lived in Cook County. There's 196 00:11:02,320 --> 00:11:04,240 Speaker 2: no way this county is not the most corrupt in 197 00:11:04,240 --> 00:11:06,400 Speaker 2: the nation. So then you tell me how they do it. 198 00:11:07,120 --> 00:11:09,880 Speaker 1: Let's take a quick commercial break. We'll continue next on 199 00:11:09,920 --> 00:11:15,920 Speaker 1: the Tutor Dixon podcast. It reminds me of we had 200 00:11:15,960 --> 00:11:20,240 Speaker 1: that Crook County podcast guy on one time and he 201 00:11:20,280 --> 00:11:25,200 Speaker 1: went through exactly what happens behind the scenes. So you 202 00:11:25,280 --> 00:11:27,840 Speaker 1: make a great point. There is a lot of corruption, 203 00:11:28,240 --> 00:11:31,320 Speaker 1: but think of just the corruption of wanting to keep 204 00:11:31,480 --> 00:11:35,360 Speaker 1: I think people don't necessarily understand what sanctuary city means 205 00:11:35,360 --> 00:11:38,640 Speaker 1: and what sanctuary policies are. And I've tried to explain 206 00:11:38,720 --> 00:11:42,280 Speaker 1: this in our state. In our town, we had people 207 00:11:42,320 --> 00:11:43,840 Speaker 1: that came in and they said, we're going to make 208 00:11:43,960 --> 00:11:47,800 Speaker 1: your town a welcoming city. That was the new term 209 00:11:48,080 --> 00:11:51,280 Speaker 1: for sanctuary city. And we went to the town council 210 00:11:51,280 --> 00:11:55,560 Speaker 1: and we talked spoke against it, said you have to understand, 211 00:11:55,720 --> 00:11:58,040 Speaker 1: this sounds so great. They use great words. I mean, 212 00:11:58,040 --> 00:11:59,920 Speaker 1: it sounds so lovely to be welcomes. 213 00:12:00,640 --> 00:12:04,280 Speaker 2: It's absolutely news. It's so orwellian welcoming town. What does 214 00:12:04,280 --> 00:12:07,400 Speaker 2: that mean exactly? And by the way, what do you 215 00:12:07,480 --> 00:12:10,520 Speaker 2: do for the people you're welcomed in? For example, just 216 00:12:10,600 --> 00:12:14,959 Speaker 2: two examples, if you look at Katie's and Sheridan's. Katie's case, 217 00:12:15,880 --> 00:12:19,959 Speaker 2: he in court admitted he couldn't never had a day schooling, 218 00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:23,560 Speaker 2: couldn't read, couldn't write either English or Spanish. He spoke 219 00:12:23,640 --> 00:12:29,960 Speaker 2: kaichiya regionus mountain mountainous Mayan language. Right, So, but he 220 00:12:30,040 --> 00:12:33,280 Speaker 2: had a Valadellino driver's list and go figure that out. Okay, 221 00:12:33,480 --> 00:12:36,439 Speaker 2: Now he also had and is being treated for HIV. 222 00:12:36,880 --> 00:12:41,120 Speaker 2: What did you do when you welcomed him into your state? 223 00:12:41,440 --> 00:12:45,080 Speaker 2: You left him aimlessly to roam around our communities with 224 00:12:45,320 --> 00:12:48,959 Speaker 2: HIV with no sense of how to behave himself and 225 00:12:49,000 --> 00:12:53,080 Speaker 2: how to be successful in our communities. Now, Sheridan's guy, 226 00:12:53,160 --> 00:12:55,680 Speaker 2: he came in. Now they're telling us he's got a 227 00:12:55,720 --> 00:12:58,160 Speaker 2: mind of a child. Okay, what did you do to 228 00:12:58,240 --> 00:13:03,240 Speaker 2: help him? If he needs special attention? What did you do? No, 229 00:13:03,320 --> 00:13:06,920 Speaker 2: you did nothing. You let the gang members take advantage 230 00:13:06,960 --> 00:13:10,480 Speaker 2: of them. You let him roam around aimlessly. People have 231 00:13:10,520 --> 00:13:13,959 Speaker 2: to understand Illinois and Governor Pritzkers of the world. They 232 00:13:14,000 --> 00:13:16,640 Speaker 2: don't care about the victims one hundred percent. They never did. 233 00:13:17,240 --> 00:13:20,679 Speaker 2: But they don't care about the welcoming immigrants. What they 234 00:13:20,720 --> 00:13:23,240 Speaker 2: care about is warm bodies that you can tie some 235 00:13:23,360 --> 00:13:24,439 Speaker 2: ballots to. That's all. 236 00:13:24,480 --> 00:13:28,520 Speaker 1: That's exactly right. They are not That's what I mean. 237 00:13:28,600 --> 00:13:31,160 Speaker 1: These sanctuary cities are not a place to come. Like 238 00:13:31,200 --> 00:13:33,360 Speaker 1: they say, we're giving them health care, we're taking care 239 00:13:33,360 --> 00:13:35,760 Speaker 1: of them. They don't talk to them. This is just 240 00:13:35,800 --> 00:13:38,680 Speaker 1: a place to keep them, where they keep ice from 241 00:13:38,760 --> 00:13:41,079 Speaker 1: getting them if they commit a crime. The only thing 242 00:13:41,120 --> 00:13:43,319 Speaker 1: a sanctuary city means, if you commit a crime, you're 243 00:13:43,360 --> 00:13:46,240 Speaker 1: safe here. We won't turn you over to the federal authorities. 244 00:13:46,520 --> 00:13:49,320 Speaker 1: But you make a point, that guy the shared, the 245 00:13:49,360 --> 00:13:51,359 Speaker 1: guy that killed Sheridan had tuberculosis. 246 00:13:51,400 --> 00:13:54,760 Speaker 2: Didn't mean yeah, yeah, that's true. He had tuberculosis. He 247 00:13:54,920 --> 00:13:58,560 Speaker 2: was supposedly had a mentality of a child. You did 248 00:13:58,720 --> 00:14:00,920 Speaker 2: nothing for this guy, and he's the communities. You know 249 00:14:00,920 --> 00:14:03,480 Speaker 2: how easy you considers. 250 00:14:03,559 --> 00:14:06,440 Speaker 1: Right, right, That's what I mean, running around with a 251 00:14:06,640 --> 00:14:10,000 Speaker 1: horrible illness that he could give to anyone. And if 252 00:14:10,120 --> 00:14:12,559 Speaker 1: we were running around that way, the government would actually 253 00:14:13,040 --> 00:14:16,000 Speaker 1: punish us for not getting our health care taken care of. 254 00:14:16,080 --> 00:14:22,240 Speaker 1: So he's yes, yes, So he's running around with tuberculosis. 255 00:14:22,600 --> 00:14:27,760 Speaker 1: The man who killed Katie had HIV. Now think about this, 256 00:14:28,400 --> 00:14:31,040 Speaker 1: how is he He's spreading that he clearly got it somehow, 257 00:14:31,160 --> 00:14:34,480 Speaker 1: so he's likely spreading that as well. There's no testing. 258 00:14:34,800 --> 00:14:38,160 Speaker 1: I mean, you go back to when your parents came 259 00:14:38,320 --> 00:14:40,800 Speaker 1: to the United States. You had to go through medical tests. 260 00:14:41,080 --> 00:14:43,520 Speaker 1: You had to actually prove that you are healthy enough 261 00:14:43,560 --> 00:14:46,200 Speaker 1: to be an American citizen, and even and if you 262 00:14:46,240 --> 00:14:50,520 Speaker 1: weren't healthy, then either you went back or you went 263 00:14:50,600 --> 00:14:55,240 Speaker 1: to the hospital. There's no there's no vetting. The Abiden 264 00:14:55,320 --> 00:14:58,400 Speaker 1: administration and the leftists who are telling us these people 265 00:14:58,440 --> 00:15:01,920 Speaker 1: are good people and they're vetted, they're not even healthy. 266 00:15:02,080 --> 00:15:04,720 Speaker 1: So there's no vetting. And I'm not saying that there 267 00:15:04,760 --> 00:15:07,200 Speaker 1: aren't good people that are coming across, because I do 268 00:15:07,280 --> 00:15:10,560 Speaker 1: believe that we should have an ability to come here 269 00:15:10,600 --> 00:15:13,280 Speaker 1: for people that want to be Americans, but not for 270 00:15:13,360 --> 00:15:16,120 Speaker 1: people who want to shoot young girls in the back. 271 00:15:17,120 --> 00:15:20,960 Speaker 2: There's a distinction, and it's sad that we can't call 272 00:15:21,040 --> 00:15:24,760 Speaker 2: that out these folks. Look, the guy killed Katie and 273 00:15:24,800 --> 00:15:27,520 Speaker 2: the guy killed Shirt. They are not here to better 274 00:15:27,600 --> 00:15:30,040 Speaker 2: their lives. They are not our neighbors. They are not 275 00:15:30,160 --> 00:15:33,440 Speaker 2: the ones that created this country, as they like to say, 276 00:15:33,560 --> 00:15:38,240 Speaker 2: these tired platitudes that they use. It's so, it's like enough, 277 00:15:38,640 --> 00:15:41,600 Speaker 2: you clearly did not vet anyone, you didn't give anyone 278 00:15:41,640 --> 00:15:44,800 Speaker 2: health screening, you didn't give them any support from But 279 00:15:45,840 --> 00:15:49,600 Speaker 2: you're spending three billion dollars plus two three billion dollars 280 00:15:50,000 --> 00:15:54,000 Speaker 2: on so called immigrations. Who's that money going to? How 281 00:15:54,040 --> 00:15:56,960 Speaker 2: are you helping these people or is this just another 282 00:15:57,360 --> 00:16:01,200 Speaker 2: I don't know, slush fun that you're washing taxpayer dollars 283 00:16:01,240 --> 00:16:02,000 Speaker 2: around every wall. 284 00:16:02,080 --> 00:16:04,760 Speaker 1: You have to wonder because that guy was living in 285 00:16:04,840 --> 00:16:08,320 Speaker 1: taxpayer funded housing. The guy who killed Sheridan was living 286 00:16:08,320 --> 00:16:11,320 Speaker 1: in taxpayer funded housing, and he'd been here since twenty 287 00:16:11,360 --> 00:16:15,080 Speaker 1: three so for three years, the people of the city 288 00:16:15,080 --> 00:16:18,040 Speaker 1: of Chicago were paying for his lifestyle, for paying for 289 00:16:18,120 --> 00:16:21,680 Speaker 1: him to live here, and then he killed somebody. So 290 00:16:21,920 --> 00:16:25,680 Speaker 1: how does the governor and how does the mayor? I 291 00:16:25,680 --> 00:16:28,360 Speaker 1: mean the governor is out there every day talking, you know, 292 00:16:28,440 --> 00:16:31,320 Speaker 1: he's talking about running for president. How do they get 293 00:16:31,320 --> 00:16:33,280 Speaker 1: away with this? But you make a great point, there 294 00:16:33,320 --> 00:16:35,960 Speaker 1: is a benefit over and above voting. I mean, even 295 00:16:35,960 --> 00:16:38,440 Speaker 1: if you were to take voting out of it, I 296 00:16:38,480 --> 00:16:40,840 Speaker 1: do believe that they use these people to get elected. 297 00:16:41,040 --> 00:16:42,840 Speaker 1: But even if you were to take that out of it, 298 00:16:43,160 --> 00:16:46,920 Speaker 1: they put these people into the census, and they get 299 00:16:47,120 --> 00:16:50,360 Speaker 1: more control because they get I mean, look at California. 300 00:16:50,640 --> 00:16:54,000 Speaker 1: If you took away the immigrants out of the illegal 301 00:16:54,040 --> 00:16:58,080 Speaker 1: immigrants out of California, you wouldn't have nearly the representation 302 00:16:58,240 --> 00:17:02,040 Speaker 1: in Washington that you do. Aren't gaining power by just 303 00:17:02,240 --> 00:17:04,640 Speaker 1: allowing people to flow into the country. 304 00:17:05,160 --> 00:17:09,200 Speaker 2: That's right, it's a congressional apportionment. It's political power. Katie 305 00:17:09,280 --> 00:17:12,200 Speaker 2: died on the altar of political power. They don't care 306 00:17:12,320 --> 00:17:16,119 Speaker 2: about They love humanity in the abstract, they do not 307 00:17:16,359 --> 00:17:18,959 Speaker 2: love it in the concrete. They don't want to hear. 308 00:17:19,119 --> 00:17:25,720 Speaker 2: They don't acknowledge Katie. They've never once said her name. Pritzker, Duckworth, Durban, 309 00:17:25,920 --> 00:17:29,760 Speaker 2: all these whoever Durban endorses, we should reject outright. But 310 00:17:30,080 --> 00:17:31,879 Speaker 2: that's kind of what I was trying to say to 311 00:17:31,920 --> 00:17:35,480 Speaker 2: the Gorman family. Look, they're saying it now because they 312 00:17:35,520 --> 00:17:37,560 Speaker 2: don't want to be beaten over the head. But you 313 00:17:37,640 --> 00:17:41,200 Speaker 2: have a governor Pritsburgh now over there as incoherently saying well, 314 00:17:41,960 --> 00:17:44,199 Speaker 2: Ice and Trump didn't do their job when they were 315 00:17:44,240 --> 00:17:48,280 Speaker 2: here during Midway Blitz, which was honoring my daughter Katie Abraham, 316 00:17:48,760 --> 00:17:51,040 Speaker 2: but so and at the same time when they when 317 00:17:51,040 --> 00:17:55,040 Speaker 2: it was happening, they were on in front of every microphone, 318 00:17:55,760 --> 00:18:00,240 Speaker 2: degrading and just beating down ICE. ICE agents. By the way, 319 00:18:00,400 --> 00:18:03,359 Speaker 2: I've met probably one hundred and two hundred ICE agents 320 00:18:03,400 --> 00:18:09,520 Speaker 2: and staff, the most diverse, professional, caring, understanding people I 321 00:18:09,560 --> 00:18:12,520 Speaker 2: ever met. It's it was amazing how they're beaten the 322 00:18:12,760 --> 00:18:15,080 Speaker 2: on they say, they're on trained, they don't know what 323 00:18:15,119 --> 00:18:18,520 Speaker 2: they're doing, they should be. They just they're using this 324 00:18:18,680 --> 00:18:22,040 Speaker 2: rhetoric dangerously. And if you think it's only going to 325 00:18:22,080 --> 00:18:25,480 Speaker 2: stop at ICE law enforcement, they are so wrong. They 326 00:18:25,520 --> 00:18:29,040 Speaker 2: do not. They are so short term minded. This will 327 00:18:29,080 --> 00:18:31,280 Speaker 2: flow through to you see it now. Actually look at 328 00:18:31,320 --> 00:18:33,760 Speaker 2: the police officers in New York, where people are there's 329 00:18:33,800 --> 00:18:36,760 Speaker 2: no respect for law enforcement. So any law enforcement that 330 00:18:36,960 --> 00:18:39,280 Speaker 2: you know, get these sheriffs that buy into this, it 331 00:18:39,400 --> 00:18:42,480 Speaker 2: will filter down to your police department where citizens will 332 00:18:42,520 --> 00:18:45,760 Speaker 2: have no respect for your police department. So I think 333 00:18:45,800 --> 00:18:48,480 Speaker 2: you just got to be careful with the demagoguery that 334 00:18:48,560 --> 00:18:53,760 Speaker 2: these guys do. It's not effective because it's going to 335 00:18:53,880 --> 00:18:54,919 Speaker 2: hurt people in the end. 336 00:18:56,000 --> 00:19:00,920 Speaker 1: Again, you made a point earlier about the media being 337 00:19:00,960 --> 00:19:03,919 Speaker 1: on their side, and you came out early on after 338 00:19:04,080 --> 00:19:07,000 Speaker 1: Sheridan's death and you said to the family, look, they're 339 00:19:07,000 --> 00:19:09,320 Speaker 1: going to try to make this guy into the victim. 340 00:19:09,760 --> 00:19:13,320 Speaker 1: And that is a problem for the people that just 341 00:19:13,440 --> 00:19:15,680 Speaker 1: want law enforcement to be able to do their job. 342 00:19:15,720 --> 00:19:17,399 Speaker 1: And I don't even like to say one side of 343 00:19:17,440 --> 00:19:20,520 Speaker 1: the aisle. I think there are actually people and the 344 00:19:20,520 --> 00:19:24,200 Speaker 1: Democrat Party that understand the importance of having law enforcement. 345 00:19:24,240 --> 00:19:27,120 Speaker 1: I don't think everybody, I hope not everybody has lost 346 00:19:27,160 --> 00:19:30,080 Speaker 1: their minds, but the media has. The media is totally 347 00:19:30,160 --> 00:19:35,080 Speaker 1: in the bag for Democrats. It is totally ideological for them. 348 00:19:35,160 --> 00:19:38,280 Speaker 1: It is just about who gets elected. And you warned 349 00:19:38,520 --> 00:19:41,040 Speaker 1: that the media would protect this guy, and then they did. 350 00:19:42,000 --> 00:19:45,639 Speaker 2: They did, and I have no Again, I don't feel 351 00:19:45,640 --> 00:19:49,440 Speaker 2: any vindication around that. I feel a sense of sadness. 352 00:19:49,880 --> 00:19:52,800 Speaker 2: I feel a sense of sorry for our nation and 353 00:19:52,880 --> 00:19:56,920 Speaker 2: our citizens that we have always taken the backseat. We're 354 00:19:56,920 --> 00:20:01,440 Speaker 2: just supposed to fund their experiment, little labrats. We send 355 00:20:01,520 --> 00:20:03,600 Speaker 2: our money and they do whatever they want. We have 356 00:20:03,680 --> 00:20:07,600 Speaker 2: no consideration. We are collateral damage. And they also never 357 00:20:07,640 --> 00:20:11,760 Speaker 2: suffer the consequences of their own ideology, and that's a 358 00:20:11,800 --> 00:20:13,840 Speaker 2: sad thing. And then you look at I don't know 359 00:20:13,840 --> 00:20:15,760 Speaker 2: what you call it. It's got to be it's got 360 00:20:15,760 --> 00:20:18,000 Speaker 2: to be more than a hypocrisy. Like when someone like 361 00:20:18,480 --> 00:20:21,399 Speaker 2: Governor PRITZKYO comes out and he says they didn't do 362 00:20:21,440 --> 00:20:23,640 Speaker 2: their job. At the same time he was out there 363 00:20:23,640 --> 00:20:28,119 Speaker 2: saying don't do this job. He's up in Minnesota honoring 364 00:20:28,720 --> 00:20:31,560 Speaker 2: Alex Pretty and Rude Good and no one should ever die. 365 00:20:31,600 --> 00:20:33,679 Speaker 2: Don't misunderstand. No one knows more than me that I 366 00:20:33,720 --> 00:20:37,880 Speaker 2: had to bury a child. I understand loss all too well. Right, 367 00:20:38,200 --> 00:20:42,639 Speaker 2: So I get that. But Katie and Sheridan, unlike Alex 368 00:20:42,640 --> 00:20:46,000 Speaker 2: Pretty and Rude Good, did not interject themselves in the 369 00:20:46,040 --> 00:20:49,399 Speaker 2: middle of a law enforcement operation, regardless who is running it. 370 00:20:49,640 --> 00:20:52,800 Speaker 2: You have, you have people with you know they're armed, 371 00:20:53,040 --> 00:20:55,000 Speaker 2: and you're gonna go take your car or you're gonna 372 00:20:55,000 --> 00:20:58,600 Speaker 2: start kicking these people. How do you think this is 373 00:20:58,640 --> 00:21:01,680 Speaker 2: gonna end? And then you're carrying a firearm on top 374 00:21:01,680 --> 00:21:05,240 Speaker 2: of that and behaving that way. There's a responsibility you 375 00:21:05,400 --> 00:21:08,639 Speaker 2: must show and some respect you must show. To that 376 00:21:08,720 --> 00:21:12,439 Speaker 2: firearm that you don't go running around with armed people, 377 00:21:12,600 --> 00:21:15,679 Speaker 2: kicking cards and spinning on people. It's and and so 378 00:21:15,720 --> 00:21:19,399 Speaker 2: the governor has consideration for those because he can use 379 00:21:19,440 --> 00:21:22,600 Speaker 2: them for a political reason. He can't use a political 380 00:21:22,640 --> 00:21:25,840 Speaker 2: reason for the cadies of the world. He it's inconvenient 381 00:21:25,880 --> 00:21:29,040 Speaker 2: for him and it can't be used for his benefit. 382 00:21:29,240 --> 00:21:32,040 Speaker 2: Therefore they need to be ignored and disappeared. 383 00:21:32,720 --> 00:21:34,920 Speaker 1: Right, it doesn't work for them. But let me ask 384 00:21:35,000 --> 00:21:37,760 Speaker 1: you this because you bring this up, and we talked 385 00:21:37,760 --> 00:21:41,600 Speaker 1: about this on the podcast earlier, about the fact that JB. 386 00:21:41,720 --> 00:21:46,119 Speaker 1: Pritzker actually went to Minnesota. But let me compare the 387 00:21:46,160 --> 00:21:48,720 Speaker 1: two sides for a minute, because you know, when the 388 00:21:48,960 --> 00:21:51,160 Speaker 1: when the left said they didn't like what was happening 389 00:21:51,200 --> 00:21:54,639 Speaker 1: in Minnesota, they went out there, they protested, they certainly 390 00:21:54,680 --> 00:21:58,120 Speaker 1: did get violent, they got they became, they had riots, 391 00:21:58,680 --> 00:22:04,800 Speaker 1: they pushed back. There were responses to what happened, and 392 00:22:04,960 --> 00:22:08,120 Speaker 1: the president then said, Okay, I'm going to change how 393 00:22:08,119 --> 00:22:11,600 Speaker 1: we operate here. He made the change, and there's been 394 00:22:11,680 --> 00:22:15,560 Speaker 1: multiple changes at DHS. Obviously he changed out even the 395 00:22:15,880 --> 00:22:20,480 Speaker 1: secretary of DHS. He listened. He made the change. When 396 00:22:20,520 --> 00:22:24,600 Speaker 1: this happens on our side, I hate to even say 397 00:22:25,160 --> 00:22:27,879 Speaker 1: it's not a side when it happens when someone gets 398 00:22:28,119 --> 00:22:31,879 Speaker 1: murdered in the United States, when someone is murdered like this, 399 00:22:32,119 --> 00:22:38,040 Speaker 1: like your daughter, like Sheridan. Should there be protests in 400 00:22:38,080 --> 00:22:43,160 Speaker 1: the streets from the people who are calling for us 401 00:22:43,200 --> 00:22:45,200 Speaker 1: to just have law and order? Should we be louder? 402 00:22:45,240 --> 00:22:48,200 Speaker 1: I mean, are we just too relaxed about these things? 403 00:22:48,440 --> 00:22:52,280 Speaker 1: I had never even heard Katie's story before I heard Sheridan's. 404 00:22:52,320 --> 00:22:56,240 Speaker 1: That's the sad thing about it is we aren't going 405 00:22:56,280 --> 00:23:00,159 Speaker 1: out there and saying enough is enough. JB. Stop. Have 406 00:23:00,200 --> 00:23:03,080 Speaker 1: to stop these practices. You have people that are losing 407 00:23:03,080 --> 00:23:05,520 Speaker 1: their loved ones. Are we not being loud enough? 408 00:23:06,560 --> 00:23:09,960 Speaker 2: Well, I don't. I don't think the loudness has anything 409 00:23:09,960 --> 00:23:11,440 Speaker 2: to do with that. You've got to look at someone 410 00:23:11,480 --> 00:23:17,480 Speaker 2: like J. G. Pritzker, who's very, in my opinion, effectual, uncaring, uncompassionate, 411 00:23:17,960 --> 00:23:23,760 Speaker 2: very robotic. Right, what he's his north star is ideology, right. 412 00:23:23,960 --> 00:23:26,600 Speaker 2: He believes he's in it for the game. He wants 413 00:23:27,359 --> 00:23:30,440 Speaker 2: if people think Illinois his final destination. He doesn't want 414 00:23:30,440 --> 00:23:33,200 Speaker 2: anything to do with Illinois. He's using this for something else, 415 00:23:33,400 --> 00:23:36,800 Speaker 2: so therefore he doesn't care about the the victims or 416 00:23:36,840 --> 00:23:40,280 Speaker 2: the citizens. He's trying to position himself for something that 417 00:23:40,320 --> 00:23:42,359 Speaker 2: he thinks he's going to run for. I don't know, 418 00:23:42,359 --> 00:23:44,399 Speaker 2: maybe he might run for polk too. I have no 419 00:23:44,480 --> 00:23:48,240 Speaker 2: idea what he's thinking. It's certainly not Illinois. But but 420 00:23:48,560 --> 00:23:52,280 Speaker 2: the thing with this is when you when you're north 421 00:23:52,359 --> 00:23:58,359 Speaker 2: Star is politics and is ideology. I feel really more 422 00:23:58,560 --> 00:24:01,320 Speaker 2: sorry for them. But the problem there is they think 423 00:24:01,359 --> 00:24:05,160 Speaker 2: they're righteous in their ideas, and they're the most dangerous 424 00:24:05,240 --> 00:24:10,040 Speaker 2: right because they feel their righteousness does not allow anyone 425 00:24:10,119 --> 00:24:17,920 Speaker 2: to question their effectiveness their policies. It's full speed ahead 426 00:24:18,280 --> 00:24:22,000 Speaker 2: and they never pause. They don't have the humility and 427 00:24:22,040 --> 00:24:25,480 Speaker 2: their service to pause and understand what citizens are saying. 428 00:24:25,520 --> 00:24:29,560 Speaker 2: They just full speed ahead and whatever they think is 429 00:24:29,600 --> 00:24:31,760 Speaker 2: going to get them where they need to go. So 430 00:24:31,960 --> 00:24:34,960 Speaker 2: it's a sad life personally. I mean, I maybe a 431 00:24:34,960 --> 00:24:38,040 Speaker 2: little bit understand it. He grew up, you know, again, 432 00:24:38,080 --> 00:24:39,880 Speaker 2: there was this turn that you know, he was born 433 00:24:39,960 --> 00:24:42,280 Speaker 2: on third base and thought he had a triple. But 434 00:24:42,720 --> 00:24:46,840 Speaker 2: so when you have everything given to you and you've 435 00:24:46,880 --> 00:24:49,879 Speaker 2: never worked for anything and you never had to struggle, 436 00:24:51,560 --> 00:24:54,520 Speaker 2: things might look a little bit differently. And that empathy 437 00:24:54,640 --> 00:24:57,720 Speaker 2: is I think sort of fades away when you're going 438 00:24:57,760 --> 00:25:01,560 Speaker 2: that way. He has none, and I'm a example number 439 00:25:01,600 --> 00:25:03,880 Speaker 2: one of that. There are so many others. To your point, 440 00:25:04,040 --> 00:25:06,800 Speaker 2: there are thousands of victims, but tens of thousands. But 441 00:25:06,920 --> 00:25:09,080 Speaker 2: on top of that, now you've got to start talking 442 00:25:09,160 --> 00:25:13,159 Speaker 2: hundreds of thousands of really victims that are suffering, that 443 00:25:13,200 --> 00:25:15,959 Speaker 2: are left behind. So it's not just things victims. And 444 00:25:16,000 --> 00:25:18,359 Speaker 2: that's what upsets me. Last year when he was saying, 445 00:25:19,200 --> 00:25:22,320 Speaker 2: when Cherry mc comber was asking him, should he should 446 00:25:22,359 --> 00:25:24,800 Speaker 2: this guy have been in the state when he killed Katie, 447 00:25:25,040 --> 00:25:26,760 Speaker 2: And he wouldn't answer that. He said. All he could 448 00:25:26,760 --> 00:25:28,760 Speaker 2: say is, well, look, we're going to judicate him and 449 00:25:28,800 --> 00:25:30,879 Speaker 2: he's you know, if he's a criminal, he's going to 450 00:25:30,920 --> 00:25:34,200 Speaker 2: get his time. But sorry, Governor, that's not good enough. 451 00:25:34,440 --> 00:25:36,280 Speaker 2: You could have vetted him out. If you had any 452 00:25:36,400 --> 00:25:39,840 Speaker 2: minimal standards right, you could have vetted him out. Katie 453 00:25:39,840 --> 00:25:42,280 Speaker 2: would be alive. It's not good enough to say, well, 454 00:25:42,320 --> 00:25:44,600 Speaker 2: he's now going to spend some decades, a couple of 455 00:25:44,640 --> 00:25:48,760 Speaker 2: decades in jail, if even that. And meanwhile, we don't 456 00:25:48,800 --> 00:25:51,200 Speaker 2: care about the dozens of family members are suffering the 457 00:25:51,240 --> 00:25:54,400 Speaker 2: rest of our lives, sitting with a life sentence. See 458 00:25:54,440 --> 00:25:57,879 Speaker 2: this is what he doesn't understand, and the consideration and 459 00:25:58,240 --> 00:26:02,560 Speaker 2: my goodness, just stop for him. Pause. Can you really 460 00:26:02,720 --> 00:26:05,600 Speaker 2: handle half a million plus to come in within a 461 00:26:05,680 --> 00:26:09,160 Speaker 2: few years because Joe Biden and all hando mayarchists were 462 00:26:09,760 --> 00:26:12,760 Speaker 2: created a free for all. You can't handle what you 463 00:26:12,840 --> 00:26:15,440 Speaker 2: got in your state. You can't take anymore. 464 00:26:15,400 --> 00:26:20,240 Speaker 1: Just through the door wide open. Remember when Governor Abbott 465 00:26:20,359 --> 00:26:24,359 Speaker 1: started sending immigrants to New York and to Chicago, and 466 00:26:24,400 --> 00:26:27,560 Speaker 1: they said, this isn't fair, we can't take this. Well, 467 00:26:28,000 --> 00:26:31,080 Speaker 1: this is exactly that. That's that's the point. It's we 468 00:26:31,240 --> 00:26:32,760 Speaker 1: can't take this, we can't do this. 469 00:26:33,520 --> 00:26:35,840 Speaker 2: But that's a that's a deflection. That that that's a 470 00:26:35,920 --> 00:26:39,880 Speaker 2: reflection on Governor Pittsburgh. He blames uh a, Governor Abbot 471 00:26:39,960 --> 00:26:42,640 Speaker 2: with the buses. How many buses really did come to Chicago? 472 00:26:42,960 --> 00:26:46,600 Speaker 2: One hundred? Right, a bus holds what seventy Okay, let's 473 00:26:46,640 --> 00:26:49,480 Speaker 2: call it a thousand buses? You let in over half 474 00:26:49,560 --> 00:26:53,960 Speaker 2: a million, Greg greg Abbot's buses only was a dent 475 00:26:54,119 --> 00:27:00,920 Speaker 2: in that you mirror, Stop blaming others and look in 476 00:27:01,000 --> 00:27:04,800 Speaker 2: the mirror, pause yourself, have the common sense to reassess 477 00:27:04,880 --> 00:27:05,919 Speaker 2: your policies. 478 00:27:06,440 --> 00:27:09,119 Speaker 1: Let's take a quick commercial break. We'll continue next on 479 00:27:09,240 --> 00:27:15,960 Speaker 1: the Tutor Dixon Podcast. So when I talk to families 480 00:27:16,119 --> 00:27:20,160 Speaker 1: who've experienced the same thing you've experienced, they say, look, 481 00:27:20,400 --> 00:27:23,440 Speaker 1: the person who did this, they got a sentence. Maybe 482 00:27:23,480 --> 00:27:26,560 Speaker 1: it's not even a life sentence. They go to jail, 483 00:27:26,680 --> 00:27:29,120 Speaker 1: and some of them have already gotten out of jail, 484 00:27:29,240 --> 00:27:31,920 Speaker 1: some of them have gone on to commit more crimes. 485 00:27:31,960 --> 00:27:34,000 Speaker 1: I mean, that's the crazy part about it. And yet 486 00:27:34,040 --> 00:27:35,760 Speaker 1: they say to me, but we got a death sentence. 487 00:27:36,200 --> 00:27:39,480 Speaker 1: We lost our person forever. You were telling me what 488 00:27:39,720 --> 00:27:44,080 Speaker 1: that weekend was like before. And then what I always 489 00:27:44,119 --> 00:27:47,440 Speaker 1: think about that too, is as you're planning, like you know, 490 00:27:47,760 --> 00:27:50,840 Speaker 1: everybody has planned, and then they just lose that person 491 00:27:51,000 --> 00:27:54,200 Speaker 1: and all those plans just it's just all melts away. 492 00:27:54,600 --> 00:27:56,159 Speaker 1: Tell us about what that was for you. 493 00:27:56,920 --> 00:28:00,680 Speaker 2: It's it's so we get the fun call on the 494 00:28:00,800 --> 00:28:06,119 Speaker 2: nineteenth and to hear that your youngest daughter was killed 495 00:28:07,200 --> 00:28:09,879 Speaker 2: on the streets of Urbana, l and Oi doing nothing 496 00:28:09,920 --> 00:28:14,399 Speaker 2: but minding their own business. We couldn't even process it. 497 00:28:14,960 --> 00:28:19,840 Speaker 2: Why Katie's sister and her our only year apart. They 498 00:28:19,880 --> 00:28:24,840 Speaker 2: are so close, like you couldn't believe people couldn't be 499 00:28:25,080 --> 00:28:28,679 Speaker 2: closer than those two. So now her sister's texting us 500 00:28:28,800 --> 00:28:30,920 Speaker 2: right away, because from the time they get up to 501 00:28:31,000 --> 00:28:33,040 Speaker 2: the time they go to bed, they're always together, even 502 00:28:33,080 --> 00:28:37,880 Speaker 2: though they were in separate universities. She's texting us Katie's 503 00:28:37,880 --> 00:28:40,320 Speaker 2: phones at the police station. She knows the location of 504 00:28:40,320 --> 00:28:42,959 Speaker 2: the phone. What's happening. I'm worried on Freako. So now 505 00:28:43,040 --> 00:28:46,720 Speaker 2: we're like, we can't even like processes. We have to stop. 506 00:28:46,960 --> 00:28:50,440 Speaker 2: She's got two siblings. They cannot hear outside of us. 507 00:28:50,920 --> 00:28:52,840 Speaker 2: We had to get into a car in January in 508 00:28:52,920 --> 00:28:55,040 Speaker 2: a still store in Michigan and get up to the 509 00:28:55,160 --> 00:28:57,880 Speaker 2: university five and a half hours to tell my other 510 00:28:58,080 --> 00:29:02,640 Speaker 2: daughter that her sister was killed. And what haunts me 511 00:29:03,520 --> 00:29:06,800 Speaker 2: to this day is when we walked into her apartment 512 00:29:06,840 --> 00:29:11,200 Speaker 2: and she saw us and she knew, and her reaction 513 00:29:11,880 --> 00:29:14,680 Speaker 2: is seared in my brain. She knew that her daughter 514 00:29:14,800 --> 00:29:17,440 Speaker 2: was dead, and I mean her sister was dead, and 515 00:29:18,400 --> 00:29:23,640 Speaker 2: she I mean we I'll never forget that day. I 516 00:29:23,720 --> 00:29:28,800 Speaker 2: will never It haunts my dreams. It haunts me that 517 00:29:28,920 --> 00:29:32,080 Speaker 2: I wasn't with Katie. I would give everything I have 518 00:29:32,760 --> 00:29:34,920 Speaker 2: and the rest of my days for just one more 519 00:29:34,960 --> 00:29:39,440 Speaker 2: hour with Katie, so we held her. Her sister were 520 00:29:39,480 --> 00:29:44,160 Speaker 2: comforted her, We spent time with her. Her mom stayed. 521 00:29:44,200 --> 00:29:47,440 Speaker 2: I drove back because she's got another sibling down here. Brother. 522 00:29:48,880 --> 00:29:51,719 Speaker 2: It was the longest day of our lives, all this happening, 523 00:29:51,800 --> 00:29:56,320 Speaker 2: when we couldn't really process what they did to Katie 524 00:29:57,280 --> 00:30:01,200 Speaker 2: a violent They had to pry open that little Honda 525 00:30:01,240 --> 00:30:04,880 Speaker 2: Civic just to drag her dead body out of the car. 526 00:30:06,120 --> 00:30:10,760 Speaker 2: I wasn't there for her. It pains me to this day. 527 00:30:11,640 --> 00:30:13,600 Speaker 2: I know what the Gormans are going through. I know 528 00:30:13,720 --> 00:30:16,560 Speaker 2: the sleepless nights that are gonna have. I went days 529 00:30:17,200 --> 00:30:20,920 Speaker 2: without sleep because I used to have these vivid, vivid 530 00:30:21,040 --> 00:30:23,760 Speaker 2: dreams of Katie, her and I, like we were back again. 531 00:30:25,120 --> 00:30:27,080 Speaker 2: And then I'd wake up and your mind plays these 532 00:30:27,120 --> 00:30:30,040 Speaker 2: tricks like she's alive and she's not really dead, and 533 00:30:30,080 --> 00:30:31,800 Speaker 2: then you're like she's dead, and then you don't want 534 00:30:31,840 --> 00:30:34,920 Speaker 2: to go to sleep because you're scared. You don't want 535 00:30:34,960 --> 00:30:36,680 Speaker 2: to do that whole thing over again. So now you're 536 00:30:36,720 --> 00:30:38,680 Speaker 2: not sleeping for days because you got questions. In this 537 00:30:40,440 --> 00:30:43,040 Speaker 2: May of twenty twenty five, I can't recall the exact day. 538 00:30:43,040 --> 00:30:45,400 Speaker 2: I wish i'd just noted it down, but I didn't. 539 00:30:45,880 --> 00:30:48,320 Speaker 2: Everything was such a fog back then. She came to 540 00:30:48,440 --> 00:30:51,280 Speaker 2: my dreams as vivid as I'm talking to you. We're 541 00:30:51,320 --> 00:30:55,640 Speaker 2: both crying. She hugs me, she kisses me, and she says, 542 00:30:55,680 --> 00:31:00,040 Speaker 2: I'm okay. And I have never seen her since, and 543 00:31:00,120 --> 00:31:03,600 Speaker 2: it breaks my heart because she should be here. I 544 00:31:03,640 --> 00:31:07,200 Speaker 2: would trade places with her and heartbeat. Now I just 545 00:31:07,280 --> 00:31:09,520 Speaker 2: have to wait for the day that we're reunited. This 546 00:31:09,680 --> 00:31:13,680 Speaker 2: is the other thing. Governor Pritzker doesn't realize that what 547 00:31:13,840 --> 00:31:16,880 Speaker 2: he took away from me was not just Katie, was 548 00:31:17,080 --> 00:31:22,000 Speaker 2: my consideration of my longevity. I don't worry about my 549 00:31:22,120 --> 00:31:25,400 Speaker 2: longevity anymore. I know I have two other children, and 550 00:31:26,360 --> 00:31:28,880 Speaker 2: my whole thing was watch my kids grow and watch 551 00:31:28,920 --> 00:31:33,000 Speaker 2: their kids grow. That was why I wanted longevity. So 552 00:31:33,120 --> 00:31:37,120 Speaker 2: you took my golden years away, Governor, with your reckless policies. 553 00:31:37,920 --> 00:31:40,960 Speaker 2: And now I'm just going through life and I want 554 00:31:41,040 --> 00:31:43,800 Speaker 2: to see my Katie again. I want to reunite with it. 555 00:31:43,880 --> 00:31:47,239 Speaker 2: I know I will, and I'm waiting to hear all 556 00:31:47,320 --> 00:31:50,160 Speaker 2: the adventures she had with our heavenly father because she 557 00:31:50,400 --> 00:31:53,880 Speaker 2: is such a huge personality that the thing she's doing, 558 00:31:54,200 --> 00:31:56,440 Speaker 2: I'm sure is driving half the people up there crazy. 559 00:31:57,040 --> 00:32:00,800 Speaker 2: So this is what they don't consider, what they don't 560 00:32:00,960 --> 00:32:05,400 Speaker 2: care about. This is real, This is this is just 561 00:32:06,640 --> 00:32:11,440 Speaker 2: a gut punch every morning, every night, and they don't care. 562 00:32:12,000 --> 00:32:17,000 Speaker 2: Turbans don't care, Duckworsts don't care, Pritzkers don't care. Up 563 00:32:17,080 --> 00:32:19,480 Speaker 2: and down the chain of this state, no one cares, 564 00:32:19,760 --> 00:32:22,800 Speaker 2: no consideration for people like us in the Gormant. It's 565 00:32:23,000 --> 00:32:25,080 Speaker 2: the Gormans are going to see the same thing from Illinois. 566 00:32:25,560 --> 00:32:28,840 Speaker 1: I'm so so sorry for your loss, and I'm I'm 567 00:32:28,960 --> 00:32:31,880 Speaker 1: so grateful that you are willing to speak out on 568 00:32:32,000 --> 00:32:35,920 Speaker 1: this because it's hard. It's hard to tell that story, 569 00:32:36,320 --> 00:32:39,560 Speaker 1: but I think those are the feelings people need to understand. 570 00:32:40,000 --> 00:32:43,920 Speaker 1: That's the loss, that's what these policies are doing. That 571 00:32:44,160 --> 00:32:48,200 Speaker 1: is how painful this is. And you are one of 572 00:32:48,440 --> 00:32:51,600 Speaker 1: so many families who wake up this way every day. 573 00:32:51,680 --> 00:32:51,880 Speaker 2: I know. 574 00:32:53,480 --> 00:32:57,160 Speaker 1: I have a friend who lost her son a similar situation. 575 00:32:57,480 --> 00:33:02,120 Speaker 1: Drunk driver killed him on a motorcycle and it was 576 00:33:02,160 --> 00:33:04,880 Speaker 1: her only child, and she has the same She wakes 577 00:33:04,960 --> 00:33:07,600 Speaker 1: up every day and she talks about him every day, 578 00:33:07,760 --> 00:33:11,000 Speaker 1: and she thinks of him, and she speaks about him, 579 00:33:11,360 --> 00:33:14,920 Speaker 1: and she has kept his memory alive. But she is 580 00:33:15,200 --> 00:33:20,680 Speaker 1: never not advocating for families like yours. She's always in DC, 581 00:33:20,920 --> 00:33:25,080 Speaker 1: she's always fighting, and it's so important to speak out. 582 00:33:25,240 --> 00:33:27,240 Speaker 1: I know it's so hard for you. I can see 583 00:33:27,280 --> 00:33:29,240 Speaker 1: that it's so hard for you. I mean, it's hard 584 00:33:29,320 --> 00:33:32,160 Speaker 1: for me to even hear the story because my heart 585 00:33:32,280 --> 00:33:35,440 Speaker 1: breaks for you. But I am so impressed that you 586 00:33:35,560 --> 00:33:37,760 Speaker 1: are doing this, and I thank you. Thank you for 587 00:33:37,880 --> 00:33:40,480 Speaker 1: speaking up, thank you for telling your story, thank you 588 00:33:40,600 --> 00:33:44,280 Speaker 1: for making sure people hear the pain of not taking 589 00:33:44,360 --> 00:33:45,240 Speaker 1: care of Americans. 590 00:33:46,120 --> 00:33:49,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, and that's you know, that's the main point for me, 591 00:33:49,520 --> 00:33:52,280 Speaker 2: is no one. I wish I could explain it in 592 00:33:52,400 --> 00:33:55,240 Speaker 2: better words. Honestly, I wish I just can't. It is 593 00:33:55,360 --> 00:33:58,120 Speaker 2: something no one should ever have to experience. It's not right. 594 00:33:58,680 --> 00:34:00,680 Speaker 2: And that's the only reason why I'm speaking out, and 595 00:34:00,720 --> 00:34:02,640 Speaker 2: I will continue to speak out, and I will continue 596 00:34:02,680 --> 00:34:06,320 Speaker 2: to speak out so that other families can be saved, 597 00:34:06,720 --> 00:34:11,560 Speaker 2: and that I want our politicians to start listening. That 598 00:34:11,719 --> 00:34:18,080 Speaker 2: they're ideology should not be so rigid that they cannot stop, 599 00:34:18,560 --> 00:34:23,719 Speaker 2: take a breath and reassess. That's not losing, that's not 600 00:34:23,880 --> 00:34:27,479 Speaker 2: showing weakness. To me, that's the opposite, and the fact 601 00:34:27,520 --> 00:34:30,719 Speaker 2: that you can't do that is so disheartening to me, 602 00:34:31,440 --> 00:34:37,040 Speaker 2: is so discouraging that we have policymakers that will continue 603 00:34:37,080 --> 00:34:40,400 Speaker 2: to go headlong into this. I was at the hearing 604 00:34:40,800 --> 00:34:44,319 Speaker 2: listening to some of the Democratic senator senators after even 605 00:34:44,400 --> 00:34:47,200 Speaker 2: I told my story, as if I wasn't even there. 606 00:34:47,239 --> 00:34:52,680 Speaker 2: They're going headlong into ices, terrorists. DHS needs to be defunded. 607 00:34:54,320 --> 00:34:56,560 Speaker 2: You know, all these immigrants, I only here for a 608 00:34:56,640 --> 00:34:59,640 Speaker 2: better life, and there are neighbors and the backbone. All 609 00:34:59,800 --> 00:35:05,000 Speaker 2: this is just rhetoric. It's demagogudry, and it should stop, 610 00:35:05,320 --> 00:35:08,000 Speaker 2: and they need to start taking some consideration for others. 611 00:35:08,360 --> 00:35:10,160 Speaker 2: It's very difficult to watch. 612 00:35:10,600 --> 00:35:13,040 Speaker 1: Any elected official who is a parent who can hear 613 00:35:13,160 --> 00:35:16,319 Speaker 1: your story and what you just said about feeling as 614 00:35:16,400 --> 00:35:18,759 Speaker 1: though you've had your golden years ripped away from you, 615 00:35:18,920 --> 00:35:22,560 Speaker 1: and that image of you and the torture of being 616 00:35:24,560 --> 00:35:27,960 Speaker 1: toggled between your children who are here on earth and 617 00:35:28,040 --> 00:35:31,600 Speaker 1: your child who's in heaven, and that feeling that poll 618 00:35:32,040 --> 00:35:35,680 Speaker 1: to be with both sides, the two that are here. 619 00:35:36,000 --> 00:35:41,640 Speaker 1: And Katie, who is celebrating, we know she's in a 620 00:35:41,680 --> 00:35:45,200 Speaker 1: beautiful place. We know that she's enjoying her time with 621 00:35:45,360 --> 00:35:48,560 Speaker 1: our Savior, but she's meant to be with you for longer. 622 00:35:48,760 --> 00:35:52,759 Speaker 1: So I appreciate that. I appreciate you sharing that. I 623 00:35:52,960 --> 00:35:56,200 Speaker 1: hope that there are elected officials out there that are 624 00:35:56,239 --> 00:35:59,800 Speaker 1: listening to this, that are understanding that it's not cruel 625 00:36:00,280 --> 00:36:03,320 Speaker 1: to make sure that we're safe. This is not cruel. 626 00:36:03,840 --> 00:36:07,000 Speaker 1: This is actually these are the policies that are so 627 00:36:07,200 --> 00:36:09,400 Speaker 1: critical to making sure that people can live in this 628 00:36:09,480 --> 00:36:12,520 Speaker 1: country and have the American dream and enjoy their families. 629 00:36:12,560 --> 00:36:13,640 Speaker 1: And that should be what we want. 630 00:36:13,760 --> 00:36:16,640 Speaker 2: And I just want what's cruel, Tutor, what's cruel is 631 00:36:16,680 --> 00:36:19,239 Speaker 2: what they did during the Biden New Yorkist years. That 632 00:36:19,760 --> 00:36:24,120 Speaker 2: was cruel and that was extreme. And to now deflect 633 00:36:24,440 --> 00:36:27,680 Speaker 2: today to say we're too extreme. Where were these same 634 00:36:27,800 --> 00:36:31,080 Speaker 2: voices during the Biden and New Yorkers years when people 635 00:36:31,160 --> 00:36:35,239 Speaker 2: were being exploited, children are being exploited, people were being 636 00:36:35,520 --> 00:36:38,359 Speaker 2: killed along the way, you had misery at the board. 637 00:36:38,600 --> 00:36:41,920 Speaker 2: Where were these voices? This is not about This was 638 00:36:42,160 --> 00:36:46,000 Speaker 2: not about bettering people. This was not they were doing 639 00:36:46,120 --> 00:36:49,360 Speaker 2: something insidious. I don't know why the Department of Justice 640 00:36:49,440 --> 00:36:52,320 Speaker 2: can't look into some of these people, like a New Yorkist. 641 00:36:52,400 --> 00:36:54,279 Speaker 2: I don't understand why do they get away with it? 642 00:36:54,880 --> 00:36:55,560 Speaker 1: But this. 643 00:36:57,200 --> 00:36:59,480 Speaker 2: You cannot say this is cruel and not turn back 644 00:36:59,560 --> 00:37:02,360 Speaker 2: and say, well that was cool cruol as well. So 645 00:37:02,520 --> 00:37:06,400 Speaker 2: therefore we need to you know where I'm sitting. You 646 00:37:06,560 --> 00:37:08,880 Speaker 2: kind of got to be extreme now because you have 647 00:37:09,000 --> 00:37:11,839 Speaker 2: to combat the extreme that was before. You don't get 648 00:37:12,000 --> 00:37:15,080 Speaker 2: one and not the other.
