Some very important 0:01:09.840 --> 0:01:12.560 news just dropped from the real Raw News Twitter account. 0:01:12.840 --> 0:01:15.559 Oh boys, sharing what you don't want shared one hundred 0:01:15.600 --> 0:01:18.959 and seven thousand followers. Special forces that accompanied President Trump 0:01:19.000 --> 0:01:22.160 to the Pope's funeral arrested Biden for treason afterward, but 0:01:22.240 --> 0:01:24.440 it turned out to be a body double, So. 0:01:26.480 --> 0:01:28.759 Breaking news. 0:01:28.959 --> 0:01:33.840 Joe still has a trigger too up his sleep, Patriots 0:01:33.880 --> 0:01:34.679 not in control. 0:01:34.840 --> 0:01:37.200 What a beautiful world people must live. 0:01:37.480 --> 0:01:39.880 I desperately want to lift in the world where like 0:01:40.640 --> 0:01:44.080 Joe Biden is a Saga era type rebel figure, like 0:01:44.400 --> 0:01:48.200 tricking special forces with body doubles, hiding in the mountains. 0:01:48.880 --> 0:01:50.840 They called him Joe the Jackal for a reason. 0:01:50.960 --> 0:01:53.720 Yeah, he locked up in a Vatican vaults where he's 0:01:53.720 --> 0:01:54.760 scheming his return. 0:01:54.840 --> 0:01:59.440 He just stolen nuke from Fort Leonard Wood. Oh boy, 0:02:00.200 --> 0:02:02.400 he's in a tiny submarine making its way to keep 0:02:02.440 --> 0:02:03.040 it right. 0:02:02.880 --> 0:02:04.920 Now, I guess you know, speaking of the pope, but 0:02:04.960 --> 0:02:10.040 Trump himself has announced his running for the pope ship paper. 0:02:10.120 --> 0:02:11.280 Why not let him have it. 0:02:11.720 --> 0:02:13.960 Let him have it, We will keep a close eye 0:02:14.000 --> 0:02:14.359 on that. 0:02:14.680 --> 0:02:15.320 Let him have it. 0:02:15.360 --> 0:02:18.960 But make Stanley Tucci do whatever job Stanley Tucci had 0:02:18.960 --> 0:02:19.560 in conclave. 0:02:19.680 --> 0:02:21.480 Make him the lib A cuck cardinal. Why not? 0:02:21.760 --> 0:02:25.040 That's right, that's right, speaking of lib cut No, speaking 0:02:25.080 --> 0:02:28.520 of judges, who actually exercised a great deal of personal courage. 0:02:28.720 --> 0:02:30.600 There have been two cases in the last week or 0:02:30.600 --> 0:02:34.400 so of judges being arrested and charged by the Trump 0:02:34.440 --> 0:02:38.120 administration with crimes that are all related to aiding and 0:02:38.160 --> 0:02:41.600 debedding undocumented immigrants. Right, I'm going to start with the 0:02:41.600 --> 0:02:46.399 case of Hannah Dugan. Hannah Dugan is a Wisconsin She's 0:02:46.440 --> 0:02:49.800 a Milwaukee County Circuit judge. She was sworn in in 0:02:49.800 --> 0:02:52.880 twenty sixteen. So she's I wanted to say, I wanted 0:02:52.880 --> 0:02:54.400 to say she hasn't been doing this very long, but no, 0:02:54.440 --> 0:02:56.400 that's literally like nine years, eight or nine years, so 0:02:56.400 --> 0:02:59.280 she's been doing this a spell. She's sixty five years old. 0:02:59.360 --> 0:03:02.880 And on March twelfth, there was a fellow Flora's Ruiz 0:03:03.040 --> 0:03:05.920 is his last name. He's thirty years old, who was 0:03:06.400 --> 0:03:10.320 arrested after basically there was a confrontation between him and 0:03:10.360 --> 0:03:14.560 his roommates for him playing loud music. He was confronted 0:03:14.720 --> 0:03:17.560 for this on March twelfth, and he allegedly fought with 0:03:17.639 --> 0:03:20.400 a male roommate in the kitchen. A woman I'm not 0:03:20.400 --> 0:03:22.160 sure if she was a roommate or just there tried 0:03:22.200 --> 0:03:25.440 to break them up. Two women eventually did. One of 0:03:25.480 --> 0:03:29.360 them got elbowed in the arm, allegedly by Flores Ruiz. 0:03:30.000 --> 0:03:32.680 One of them was struck while trying to break them up. 0:03:32.760 --> 0:03:35.560 It is unclear to the degree to which I'm hearing 0:03:35.560 --> 0:03:37.760 a lot of people like I went to the centrist 0:03:37.840 --> 0:03:39.920 subreddit to see this, and they're like, well, a serial 0:03:39.920 --> 0:03:41.080 abuser of women. 0:03:41.160 --> 0:03:42.760 That's not really what he's being accused of. 0:03:43.080 --> 0:03:45.320 There's like a fight between him and another guy and 0:03:45.320 --> 0:03:49.040 it got chaotic. One person elbowed in the arm. I'm sorry, 0:03:49.200 --> 0:03:51.840 I don't consider that serious domestic abuse unless it's part 0:03:51.840 --> 0:03:53.720 of a pattern. If it's literally he was fighting a 0:03:53.720 --> 0:03:56.880 guy and other people swarmed in and some of them 0:03:56.920 --> 0:03:59.040 one of them got elbowed. I don't know about this 0:03:59.080 --> 0:04:01.800 woman that he's alleged of striking, Like to what degree 0:04:01.840 --> 0:04:03.720 did he haul off and punch her or was it again, 0:04:03.760 --> 0:04:06.920 there was this chaotic struggle and several people got struck 0:04:06.960 --> 0:04:09.200 in the middle of it. Right, this isn't like great, 0:04:09.320 --> 0:04:11.840 but this is certainly not. The evidence that has been 0:04:12.000 --> 0:04:15.000 provided by the state here in this case is not 0:04:15.120 --> 0:04:17.840 that this is a serial domestic abuser of women. It's 0:04:17.880 --> 0:04:20.080 a guy who was involved in a chaotic fight with 0:04:20.120 --> 0:04:23.040 a roommate and a couple of other people. Right, So 0:04:23.080 --> 0:04:26.400 he's being charged with misdemeanor domestic battery as a result 0:04:26.440 --> 0:04:28.920 of this. He faces up to nine months in prison 0:04:28.960 --> 0:04:31.720 and a ten thousand dollars fine on each count if convicted, 0:04:31.880 --> 0:04:34.440 and he has not been convicted and is innocent until 0:04:34.480 --> 0:04:38.640 proven guilty. So he went up in front of Judge 0:04:38.800 --> 0:04:41.760 Dugan literally a few days ago when we record this, 0:04:42.279 --> 0:04:45.080 and while she was in the midst of like having 0:04:45.080 --> 0:04:47.640 this like court meeting. Basically, I think this was kind 0:04:47.640 --> 0:04:50.520 of like a pre trial deal, right where they're kind 0:04:50.520 --> 0:04:52.919 of like setting the ground rules of things. She finds 0:04:52.960 --> 0:04:55.400 out that Ice is in the courthouse and that they 0:04:55.440 --> 0:04:59.320 are looking for Flores Ruiz, and so she gets really 0:04:59.360 --> 0:05:02.400 angry because based on what Wisconsin has stated, like the 0:05:02.480 --> 0:05:04.960 actual law in the state, they are not supposed to 0:05:05.000 --> 0:05:08.200 be interfering in actual court proceedings. And part of the 0:05:08.200 --> 0:05:11.440 reason why is that the courts don't want people to 0:05:11.520 --> 0:05:15.640 be dissuaded from dealing with their state level court issues 0:05:16.040 --> 0:05:17.800 by the fact that Ice might pick them up. 0:05:17.960 --> 0:05:18.159 Right. 0:05:18.240 --> 0:05:20.719 It will stop people, It will make people go on 0:05:20.760 --> 0:05:23.479 the run. It makes it very difficult to enforce law 0:05:23.560 --> 0:05:26.520 and order, and it also like victims, right, Like I've said, 0:05:26.520 --> 0:05:28.599 at least if some makes it difficult for victims to 0:05:28.640 --> 0:05:29.839 get any sort of justice. 0:05:29.880 --> 0:05:30.679 Yes, yeah. 0:05:30.880 --> 0:05:34.160 The FBI affidavit describes hers getting visibly angry when Immigration 0:05:34.279 --> 0:05:37.760 shows up and she leaves the bench right, and she 0:05:38.120 --> 0:05:41.040 retreats to her chambers and I think confers with another judge, 0:05:41.040 --> 0:05:43.720 and she and that judge then approach the arrest team 0:05:43.800 --> 0:05:48.000 inside the courthouse. The affidavit describes her as having a confrontational, 0:05:48.080 --> 0:05:52.080 angry demeanor. She basically keeps saying, show me a fucking warrant, right, 0:05:52.560 --> 0:05:55.680 And they don't have a quote unquote real warrant, right, 0:05:55.680 --> 0:05:57.520 They do not have a criminal arrest warrant. They have 0:05:57.600 --> 0:06:01.560 an administrative warrant, which, based on the actual law, they 0:06:01.600 --> 0:06:04.160 do not. She does not have to let them in, right, 0:06:04.440 --> 0:06:06.600 That is not the way these things fucking work right 0:06:07.240 --> 0:06:09.800 into the courtroom to like interrupt the proceedings on the 0:06:09.839 --> 0:06:12.440 strength of this warrant. She tells them to speak with 0:06:12.480 --> 0:06:14.440 the chief judge, and she leads them away from the 0:06:14.480 --> 0:06:18.680 courtroom right once. She sends them to the chief Judge's office. 0:06:18.839 --> 0:06:20.839 This is where the thing that may in fact be 0:06:20.880 --> 0:06:24.240 criminal behavior comes in, Dugan goes back into the courtroom 0:06:24.640 --> 0:06:26.760 and says something along the lines of weight, come with me, 0:06:27.080 --> 0:06:29.520 and then takes Flora's Ruiz and his lawyer through the 0:06:29.600 --> 0:06:32.640 jury door into a non public area of the courthouse. Right, 0:06:33.160 --> 0:06:36.640 this is not normal behavior. And Ice is alleging that 0:06:36.640 --> 0:06:39.360 this is interfering with the duties of federal agents, right, 0:06:39.360 --> 0:06:43.000 that she's basically hiding an undocumented immigrant who is being 0:06:43.120 --> 0:06:46.080 actively tracked by Ice, right, and that that is a 0:06:46.120 --> 0:06:48.560 federal crime. And so that is the situation. 0:06:48.839 --> 0:06:49.039 Right. 0:06:49.120 --> 0:06:51.240 When it was found out that this was happening, the 0:06:51.279 --> 0:06:55.720 FBI and ICE arrested her. She has since bailed out. 0:06:56.279 --> 0:07:00.720 She is facing several federal charges, and it's you know, 0:07:01.160 --> 0:07:03.440 kind of unclear where this case is going to go. 0:07:03.839 --> 0:07:07.240 In terms of her initial behavior. She was absolutely legally 0:07:07.240 --> 0:07:09.720 in the right. That administrative warrant did not give Ice 0:07:10.160 --> 0:07:12.960 the right to interrupt the court proceedings. She led them 0:07:13.000 --> 0:07:16.520 to the chief judge. That was all entirely within the law. 0:07:17.360 --> 0:07:20.600 We're going to learn how the law adjudicates what she 0:07:20.760 --> 0:07:23.720 did afterwards, Right, taking these people through, because it's not 0:07:23.840 --> 0:07:26.520 illegal to lead people through a back door. It's not 0:07:26.600 --> 0:07:29.920 a crime to tell people to leave this way. But 0:07:30.440 --> 0:07:33.040 what may be adjudicated as a crime is that by 0:07:33.080 --> 0:07:35.360 doing this, she was helping to aid in a bet 0:07:35.360 --> 0:07:38.320 the escape of a fugitive, Right, And that is the 0:07:38.440 --> 0:07:40.440 argument that the federal government is making here. 0:07:40.840 --> 0:07:43.240 Yeah, they didn't leave the building at that point, right, 0:07:43.360 --> 0:07:46.320 because in the charging documents, then an ICE agent gets 0:07:46.320 --> 0:07:49.160 in the elevator with them, yeah, and decides not to 0:07:49.200 --> 0:07:51.600 detain them at that point for some reason. Yeah. Yeah, 0:07:52.000 --> 0:07:53.160 I believe that's what happened. 0:07:53.200 --> 0:07:54.920 And that part of is why I think they picked 0:07:54.920 --> 0:07:57.800 this case because they thought it was close enough on 0:07:57.840 --> 0:08:01.080 the edge enough that they could charge a judge. And 0:08:01.160 --> 0:08:03.200 I think that is the purpose of this more than 0:08:03.240 --> 0:08:05.240 going after this, and that's why they've been going to 0:08:05.240 --> 0:08:07.880 these courtses. They have been looking, they've been shopping for 0:08:07.960 --> 0:08:10.800 a situation like this, right, in part because one of 0:08:10.800 --> 0:08:12.840 the first things that happened is the Wisconsin Supreme Court 0:08:12.920 --> 0:08:16.000 suspended Judge Dugan right because she's been charged with two 0:08:16.000 --> 0:08:18.600 federal counts. And this is a normal thing. If a 0:08:18.640 --> 0:08:21.840 judge gets accused of federal crimes, you would, in normal 0:08:22.040 --> 0:08:24.800 terms want them to be suspended because those crimes are 0:08:24.800 --> 0:08:27.960 probably something like they were selling children to a child prison, 0:08:27.960 --> 0:08:29.520 which is a thing that happened to Trump. Pardon the 0:08:29.560 --> 0:08:32.240 judges responsible, right, you would want those people not trying 0:08:32.280 --> 0:08:35.400 cases while this was going on. But what's going to 0:08:35.400 --> 0:08:37.120 be done here, and what's already being done here, is 0:08:37.120 --> 0:08:41.120 that judges that are friendly to and sympathetic to undocumented 0:08:41.120 --> 0:08:43.360 people and who are not gigantic pieces of shit. And 0:08:43.440 --> 0:08:46.480 Judge Dugan comes out of a public defense background. This 0:08:46.600 --> 0:08:50.080 is somebody who defended people like the defendant in this 0:08:50.200 --> 0:08:53.480 case in her previous life as a lawyer, and I 0:08:53.520 --> 0:08:56.880 think acted with tremendous courage in this situation to try 0:08:56.920 --> 0:09:00.360 to protect somebody. They are going after her because remember one, 0:09:00.400 --> 0:09:01.959 they want to chill other judges from doing this, and 0:09:02.040 --> 0:09:03.960 number two, they can keep her off the bench right 0:09:04.400 --> 0:09:07.199 and assume she will be replaced with somebody worse, or 0:09:07.240 --> 0:09:09.360 that they will just clog up the system, either way 0:09:09.440 --> 0:09:13.160 of which works in their favor. So it will be 0:09:13.400 --> 0:09:18.079 unclear how things are going to work out in this case. 0:09:18.200 --> 0:09:21.480 I can't tell you legally what's going to happen that 0:09:21.559 --> 0:09:24.080 could go either way. I can tell you, and I 0:09:24.080 --> 0:09:26.080 think this is a very important point. It's a point 0:09:26.200 --> 0:09:31.440 Jared Yate Sexton, who's a scholar on fascism, made online 0:09:31.600 --> 0:09:34.120 about this particular case is we shouldn't give a shit 0:09:34.240 --> 0:09:36.120 if she broke the law. She did the right thing. 0:09:36.679 --> 0:09:38.880 These people are doing the wrong thing and they need 0:09:38.920 --> 0:09:42.360 to be stopped right And that is my overall stance. 0:09:42.400 --> 0:09:46.040 What she did was heroic and we should support her 0:09:46.760 --> 0:09:48.120 and fuck these people. 0:09:48.280 --> 0:09:51.520 I don't know, Yeah, yep, yep. I don't have a 0:09:51.520 --> 0:09:52.600 complicated take on that. 0:09:52.840 --> 0:09:56.960 Solidarity with the Wisconsin judiciary or at least one of them. 0:09:57.160 --> 0:09:58.079 At least one of them. 0:09:58.280 --> 0:09:58.480 Yeah. 0:09:58.520 --> 0:10:00.719 I have a friend who knows her and says she's 0:10:00.760 --> 0:10:03.240 a very nice person, and her actions in this case 0:10:03.280 --> 0:10:05.720 certainly would seem to suggest that she's a very nice, 0:10:05.800 --> 0:10:07.000 good courageous person. 0:10:07.200 --> 0:10:10.880 Yeah, and like just to there's conceivably like a person 0:10:10.960 --> 0:10:13.800 listening who thinks that, you know, these deportation things are okay. 0:10:13.960 --> 0:10:17.840 I know if you are, fuck you, why this isn't 0:10:17.920 --> 0:10:20.439 for you? Go away? Yeah, well, yeah, we're not making 0:10:20.440 --> 0:10:21.160 it for you. 0:10:21.200 --> 0:10:26.960 Put rocks in your pockets, and yeah there's bodies of it. 0:10:27.040 --> 0:10:33.080 Whatever the even if you fucking like the deportation for 0:10:33.080 --> 0:10:36.640 whatever reason, you should be able to understand that doing 0:10:36.679 --> 0:10:40.560 this in court houses is bad if a let's just 0:10:40.600 --> 0:10:42.520 take an example, right, like, if a woman who is 0:10:42.559 --> 0:10:47.439 undocumented is subject to domestic violence, right, going to testifying 0:10:47.440 --> 0:10:50.160 court could lead to her being deported, Like, this is 0:10:50.280 --> 0:10:51.079 fucking bad. 0:10:51.320 --> 0:10:53.480 It could subject her to even more violence from the 0:10:53.520 --> 0:10:57.360 state from yeah, wherever she's trying to flee from, yeah. 0:10:57.520 --> 0:11:00.320 To being detained with people yeah, yes, if you leave 0:11:00.360 --> 0:11:03.479 in the judicial system right like, this stops it functioning. 0:11:03.840 --> 0:11:07.120 Also, I want to say this too, if you're purely 0:11:07.200 --> 0:11:09.199 coming at this from a perspective of like, well, I'm 0:11:09.200 --> 0:11:12.320 still a law and order guy, this also vastly endangers 0:11:12.360 --> 0:11:16.600 Wisconsin police because if every undocumented person who gets accused 0:11:16.600 --> 0:11:19.439 of a crime knows that, well, the instant I'm accused, 0:11:19.520 --> 0:11:22.320 I'm going to be sent to a fucking concentration camp. 0:11:22.640 --> 0:11:24.680 Might as well start shooting, right, Yeah. 0:11:24.679 --> 0:11:26.680 It's why you don't see very many of these things 0:11:26.720 --> 0:11:30.520 happening in states where people regularly carry firearms. 0:11:30.800 --> 0:11:34.719 Yes, so again, you know that's all I'm saying. That's 0:11:34.720 --> 0:11:37.600 not my primary concern, but I'm going to make that point. 0:11:37.840 --> 0:11:41.080 Yeah, what about the other like weirder case of the 0:11:41.120 --> 0:11:42.000 New Mexico case. 0:11:42.200 --> 0:11:43.080 The judge in New Mexico. 0:11:43.240 --> 0:11:46.640 Yes, so now back to my fellow New Mexico municipal judge. 0:11:46.800 --> 0:11:50.160 Actually think he was a judge, yea county magistrate. Yeah, 0:11:50.160 --> 0:11:52.920 so he and I basically the same. So there's this 0:11:52.960 --> 0:11:55.760 guy Nancy Cano who's a former police officer, his wife 0:11:55.840 --> 0:11:58.439 was a cop. And Joel Cano, who is the Donna 0:11:58.480 --> 0:12:04.040 Anna County magistrate judge. These two are really you wouldn't 0:12:04.040 --> 0:12:06.600 have expected what happened from this group. These two are 0:12:06.640 --> 0:12:07.720 a cop and a judge. 0:12:07.760 --> 0:12:10.160 Couple radical lefty lunatics who. 0:12:10.080 --> 0:12:13.960 Are wealthy landlords who own at least eight properties, and 0:12:14.040 --> 0:12:18.160 they hire three men to do like you know, contracting work. 0:12:18.640 --> 0:12:22.640 And those men included a guy Christian Ortega Lopez twenty 0:12:22.640 --> 0:12:26.680 three years old, right, who is a Venezuelan migrant. And 0:12:27.200 --> 0:12:30.280 first off, because these are cops or a cop and 0:12:30.320 --> 0:12:33.760 a judge, they like check his papers which say do 0:12:33.880 --> 0:12:37.440 not deport right, like he is in the the system, 0:12:37.840 --> 0:12:39.880 not subject. This person is not subject to removal, right, 0:12:39.920 --> 0:12:42.600 those are on his papers. They check his papers. They 0:12:42.640 --> 0:12:44.680 work for these three guys, work for them for a 0:12:44.720 --> 0:12:48.480 while and develop a close relationship with the Catos to 0:12:48.520 --> 0:12:50.800 the point that they refer to them as the boys, 0:12:51.280 --> 0:12:53.480 and when they get kicked out of their apartment, they 0:12:53.559 --> 0:12:57.440 let them live with them, I think for free or 0:12:57.440 --> 0:13:01.000 at least for a nominal fee. And as they describe it, 0:13:01.040 --> 0:13:03.440 they came to consider them part of the family. And 0:13:03.480 --> 0:13:06.760 there's like photo evidence of that, including photo evidence of 0:13:06.760 --> 0:13:08.920 them like going to the gun range together as like 0:13:08.960 --> 0:13:12.400 a family day at the gun range and shooting. And 0:13:12.600 --> 0:13:15.400 like this guy Artago Lopez like posts pictures of these 0:13:15.400 --> 0:13:18.080 people and these like family outings on his Facebook, like 0:13:18.120 --> 0:13:21.640 they really do seem to have all been very close. Yeah, 0:13:21.880 --> 0:13:25.320 earlier this year, Ice comes for these guys, the boys, 0:13:25.320 --> 0:13:27.800 these three dudes who are living on their property, in 0:13:27.840 --> 0:13:31.480 a small guest house on the Knos property, and they 0:13:31.600 --> 0:13:34.240 allege or Tega Ortiz to have been a member of 0:13:34.320 --> 0:13:37.280 Trinda Agua. And it's based on and I hate most 0:13:37.320 --> 0:13:39.560 of the reporting on this because it's all just like 0:13:39.679 --> 0:13:43.600 the alleged alleged gang member, alleged Trinda Agua member. And 0:13:43.640 --> 0:13:45.640 you look at it as well, he has tattoos and 0:13:45.640 --> 0:13:48.240 there's pictures of him with guns, pictures him with guns 0:13:48.760 --> 0:13:51.600 that are legally owned by Americans at a gun range. 0:13:51.720 --> 0:13:54.520 Yeah, he's a twenty three year old guy coming to America, 0:13:54.679 --> 0:13:57.959 Like there's a high correlation with those people and people 0:13:58.080 --> 0:13:59.400 going to a gun range. 0:13:59.640 --> 0:14:02.360 Yeah, nothing illegal with that, but they're like a gang 0:14:02.400 --> 0:14:04.559 member photos of guns on his Facebook. 0:14:04.600 --> 0:14:05.320 Oh my god. 0:14:05.960 --> 0:14:09.680 So these guys get arrested, right, and it's initially and 0:14:09.720 --> 0:14:12.240 this is like a month or so ago. It's big scandal. 0:14:12.440 --> 0:14:16.000 Cano resigns from his position as a magistrate, right and 0:14:16.040 --> 0:14:19.120 gets permanently barred serving as a judge in New Mexico 0:14:19.680 --> 0:14:22.000 because these guys had been on his property, even though 0:14:22.000 --> 0:14:24.640 again there's not any evidence that I have seen anywhere 0:14:24.640 --> 0:14:27.520 that he actually did anything illegal at this point. Now, yeah, 0:14:27.600 --> 0:14:30.800 here's where things get problematic. At this point, the boys 0:14:30.800 --> 0:14:34.560 are being you know, the government is treating them as 0:14:35.000 --> 0:14:37.200 people who are here illgally, and they are trying to 0:14:37.280 --> 0:14:39.960 kick them out, and they are accusing them, these three guys, 0:14:40.000 --> 0:14:44.200 of being evolved in Trindagua. At this point, Nancy Kano 0:14:44.560 --> 0:14:47.680 provides them with legal assistance in complying with the procedures 0:14:47.680 --> 0:14:52.280 of their pending immigration cases, right, which shouldn't be illegal. 0:14:52.360 --> 0:14:55.120 She's literally helping them abide by the law. Right. 0:14:55.640 --> 0:14:56.720 But there's some other things. 0:14:56.760 --> 0:14:58.840 So Joel Cano, this is where this guy turns from 0:14:58.920 --> 0:15:03.000 like fucking married a cop, he's a landlord, he smashes 0:15:03.200 --> 0:15:06.120 or take a Lopez's phone. He admits, he's admitted that 0:15:06.160 --> 0:15:08.440 he's done this. This is not an allegation with a 0:15:08.480 --> 0:15:11.080 hammer to stop Ice from getting it. 0:15:11.120 --> 0:15:13.480 So, first off, based. 0:15:14.680 --> 0:15:20.520 Illegal, super illegal, super illegal, but not a like a 0:15:20.560 --> 0:15:27.200 good person act, I would argue. Secondly, Nancy tries to help, 0:15:27.360 --> 0:15:29.400 and this is I think a grayer area. Tries to 0:15:29.400 --> 0:15:31.640 help or tag A Lopez delete his Facebook account, and 0:15:31.800 --> 0:15:33.840 I don't actually think there's any evidence of him doing 0:15:33.840 --> 0:15:35.760 anything illegal on there. I think it's just they knew 0:15:36.320 --> 0:15:39.040 the photos he'd posted of him not breaking any laws 0:15:39.080 --> 0:15:41.600 would be used as an argument that he had I 0:15:41.640 --> 0:15:45.040 think that that's defensible in court, although they will allege 0:15:45.040 --> 0:15:46.640 that it's destruction with the evidence that they may win 0:15:46.720 --> 0:15:49.960 on that. Breaking the phone is a you know, that's 0:15:49.960 --> 0:15:51.600 going to be a tough one for them. That's just 0:15:51.640 --> 0:15:53.280 going to be a tough one for them. Now the 0:15:53.360 --> 0:15:56.320 Kno's are currently being charged and they have been released. 0:15:56.600 --> 0:15:59.760 They can't leave the county. There was the prosecutors where 0:15:59.840 --> 0:16:02.680 tim they have them separated so that they couldn't talk 0:16:02.720 --> 0:16:04.920 about the case. But thank god the judge ruling was, like, 0:16:05.200 --> 0:16:08.000 they're married, they have a constitutional right. 0:16:07.960 --> 0:16:10.880 To be together. You don't get to do that. 0:16:11.640 --> 0:16:13.720 But obviously they have to like hand in their passports 0:16:13.760 --> 0:16:15.920 any guns they'd had, which they seem to have already done. 0:16:16.480 --> 0:16:18.920 The good news is that these are rich people, right 0:16:19.040 --> 0:16:20.600 Like the judge even makes a comment that, like, these 0:16:20.600 --> 0:16:22.840 are the wealthiest people I've ever had in my courtroom, 0:16:23.400 --> 0:16:27.320 so they have the resources to fight this. And again 0:16:27.760 --> 0:16:32.640 fucking politics making strange bedfellows. Yep, Yeah, critical support to 0:16:32.720 --> 0:16:37.160 the landlord, judge, cop couple who tried to protect these immigrits. 0:16:38.000 --> 0:16:41.640 I don't know, Like whatever they did the right thing, 0:16:41.760 --> 0:16:44.320 you know, in my opinion, again not the legal thing, 0:16:46.400 --> 0:16:48.360 and I'm not urging you to follow them and breaking 0:16:48.400 --> 0:16:50.320 the law, making very clear it is illegal to break 0:16:50.320 --> 0:16:52.880 the phone of somebody that you know the police are 0:16:52.880 --> 0:16:55.000 looking for. Because they've been charged with crimes. That is 0:16:55.040 --> 0:16:57.440 a crime. I'm just saying. I think what they did 0:16:57.520 --> 0:17:00.480 was out of love and brave anyway, That's what I 0:17:00.480 --> 0:17:01.240 gotta say. 0:17:02.200 --> 0:17:17.800 Speaking of love, I love these ads. All Right, we 0:17:17.880 --> 0:17:18.440 are back. 0:17:18.960 --> 0:17:21.480 I am now going to discuss a I believe the 0:17:21.480 --> 0:17:25.520 word is a flurry of executive orders that happened the 0:17:25.680 --> 0:17:30.159 past week, because there was a ton This was a 0:17:30.280 --> 0:17:35.040 huge week for actions through through through executive order. We've 0:17:35.080 --> 0:17:37.119 tried to summarize a few of these that have like 0:17:37.240 --> 0:17:38.800 or a few orders that have come in the past 0:17:38.840 --> 0:17:41.600 few months. But but yeah, definitely the ones that happened 0:17:41.640 --> 0:17:43.439 last week are much more notable, and I will. 0:17:43.320 --> 0:17:44.680 Go through them one by one. 0:17:44.840 --> 0:17:49.040 Starting off with an attempt to possibly repeal large sections 0:17:49.040 --> 0:17:52.040 of the Civil Rights Act, Trump side in order to 0:17:52.160 --> 0:17:56.720 quote eliminate the use of disparate impact liability in all 0:17:56.840 --> 0:18:01.439 contexts to the maximum degree possible. Disparate impact is a 0:18:01.560 --> 0:18:04.720 legal theory that seeks to address discriminatory policies that, on 0:18:04.720 --> 0:18:08.680 their face may appear neutral but actually continue decades old, 0:18:08.800 --> 0:18:13.120 like discrimination and segregation. This order from Trump provokes presidential 0:18:13.160 --> 0:18:16.840 approval for Title six antidiscrimination regulations from the sixties and seventies, 0:18:17.160 --> 0:18:20.719 and orders all agencies to quote deprioritize enforcement of all 0:18:20.720 --> 0:18:23.960 statutes and regulations to the extent that they include disparate 0:18:24.080 --> 0:18:27.960 impact liability. The order calls for the Attorney General to 0:18:28.040 --> 0:18:31.919 quote initiate appropriate action to repeal or amend the implementing 0:18:31.960 --> 0:18:34.719 regulations for Title six the Civil Rights Act of nineteen 0:18:34.800 --> 0:18:38.920 sixty four. Cabinet members were also instructed to review all 0:18:38.920 --> 0:18:43.840 pending investigations, civil suits, consent judgments, permanent injunctions, and government 0:18:43.920 --> 0:18:47.639 positions that rely on sparate impact theory. That includes Titles 0:18:47.720 --> 0:18:51.680 seven and eight of the Civil Rights Act, which protects 0:18:51.760 --> 0:18:55.480 equal employment and fair housing. This is kind of part 0:18:55.480 --> 0:18:59.240 of a larger attack on civil rights in general. Obviously 0:18:59.240 --> 0:19:01.439 the past few months you've this with like DEI stuff, 0:19:01.560 --> 0:19:05.840 But last week the DOJ essentially closed its existing civil 0:19:05.920 --> 0:19:10.720 rights office, resigned a dozen senior career attorneys, curbed investigations 0:19:10.720 --> 0:19:15.000 into police misconduct and violations of voting and disability rights. Plus, 0:19:15.040 --> 0:19:18.240 the Education at Discrimination Division is now being directed to 0:19:18.280 --> 0:19:23.119 protect women's sports, and the Immigrant and Employee Rights Division 0:19:23.160 --> 0:19:27.080 was told to investigate companies that quote unlawfully discriminate against 0:19:27.200 --> 0:19:31.840 US workers in favor of foreign visa workers unquote. So 0:19:32.000 --> 0:19:34.120 that's how they think they're going to be defending civil 0:19:34.200 --> 0:19:37.720 rights is by keeping trans girls out of sports and 0:19:38.000 --> 0:19:41.240 going after foreign visa workers. Basically, they're trying to turn 0:19:41.320 --> 0:19:44.440 federal civil rights infrastructure against those whom they were meant 0:19:44.480 --> 0:19:47.880 to protect in the first place. The next order kind 0:19:47.920 --> 0:19:51.800 of outlies something I'm calling cop Nation. It's called quote 0:19:51.800 --> 0:19:55.800 strengthening and unleashing America's law enforcement to pursue criminals and 0:19:55.880 --> 0:20:00.560 protect innocent civilians. This is kind of like a proto 0:20:00.680 --> 0:20:04.600 martial law order. It's what you would do beforehand to 0:20:04.640 --> 0:20:08.800 strengthen police, but not actually declare martial law. It's setting 0:20:08.880 --> 0:20:11.560 kind of the path towards that, or at the very 0:20:11.640 --> 0:20:14.520 least like strengthening law enforcement to the degree to which 0:20:14.560 --> 0:20:16.800 it like butts up against what martial law would be. 0:20:17.480 --> 0:20:18.199 The order calls to. 0:20:18.280 --> 0:20:22.639 Quote unleash high impact local police forces, protect and defend 0:20:22.720 --> 0:20:26.159
