Speaker 1: Welcome. It's Verdict with Center Ted Cruz.
Speaker 2: This is one of those fun podcast center where you
Speaker 2: and I get to hang out in person. So if
Speaker 2: you're listening to this show, this is if you're listening
Speaker 2: to audio, you can go back and watch this on
Speaker 2: YouTube and that really makes it a lot more fun.
Speaker 2: A lot of the video clips we're going to play
Speaker 2: the audio you may hear, but you can go back
Speaker 2: and watch them, so make sure you do that. This
Speaker 2: was a very big week Center because the President name
Speaker 2: Pam Bondy as her as his AG pick, and that
Speaker 2: was something that a lot of people received with a
Speaker 2: lot of excitement.
Speaker 3: Well, that's right, it's big news. Pam Bondi is going
Speaker 3: to make a very strong AG I know, Pam. Well,
Speaker 3: we're going to talk about her. We're going to talk
Speaker 3: about that nomination, what it means, what it means for
Speaker 3: the Department of Justice, what it means for the country,
Speaker 3: what to expect in the Senate, what's going to happen next.
Speaker 3: We're also going to talk about what Joe Biden is
Speaker 3: doing on the way out of the White House, and
Speaker 3: spoiler alert, it ain't pretty. Joe Biden is in the
Speaker 3: process of opening up the borders, trying to accelerate the invasion,
Speaker 3: trying to make Donald Trump in the new administration lives
Speaker 3: and jobs more difficult. He's not just doing it at
Speaker 3: home with opening up the borders, but he's also doing
Speaker 3: it abroad. He's doing, I think, everything he can to
Speaker 3: accelerate and to make worse the war in Ukraine. That
Speaker 3: is dangerous World War III. It seems like he's rolling
Speaker 3: the dice and hoping whoever comes in next has to
Speaker 3: deal with the consequences.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's gonna be very interesting to see what he
Speaker 2: does here and why he's doing it. We're gonna break
Speaker 2: all that down for you. I want to talk to
Speaker 2: you real quick about our friends over at Ammo Squared.

Speaker 2: Pam Bondi has been selected by Donald Trump to be
Speaker 2: the AG. I've got to know her a little bit
Speaker 2: through doing different things on TV. You know her pretty
Speaker 2: well from different campaign things, et cetera. Are you excited
Speaker 2: about this pick, because it seems to be that most
Speaker 2: are very excited about how qualified she is. Her resume
Speaker 2: matters in this one a lot more than the last pick,
Speaker 2: and people say she knows how to do this job.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's a great choice. It is an excellent choice.
Speaker 3: You know, it's interesting. We did Friday's pod. You and
Speaker 3: I recorded it Thursday afternoon, right before I got on
Speaker 3: the plane and flew back from DC to Texas. And
Speaker 3: Thursday afternoon, the news had just broken that Matt Gates
Speaker 3: was pulling out. So we did the whole podcast on
Speaker 3: that news that had just broken. I'd come from the
Speaker 3: lunch with the other Senate Republicans where everyone was still
Speaker 3: a little shocked at the speed with which Gates pulled
Speaker 3: out of the contention, and at the time we didn't
Speaker 3: know who the nominee was. So Friday's pod we were
Speaker 3: speculating different folks. What is interesting is how quickly Trump acted.
Speaker 3: Trump acted within hours, and by Thursday night we knew
Speaker 3: the nominee Pambondy, and that nominee is now going full
Speaker 3: speed ahead. I'm going to say it is a very
Speaker 3: very strong choice.
Speaker 2: Let's talk about her resume so people understand, because if
Speaker 2: you're outside of Florida, you may not know just how
Speaker 2: qualified she is what she has done.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 5: So Pam's background. She's from Tampa.
Speaker 3: Originally, she got an undergraduate degree from University of Florida
Speaker 3: degree in criminal justice. She then got her law degree
Speaker 3: from Stetson Law School and she was admitted of the
Speaker 3: Florida Bar in nineteen ninety one and she spent eighteen
Speaker 3: years as a prosecutor in the Hillsboro County State Attorney's Office,
Speaker 3: trying cases including domestic violence, including murder. She was a
Speaker 3: line prosecutor trying cases. She then became Attorney General of
Speaker 3: Florida in twenty ten.
Speaker 1: She made history.
Speaker 3: She was the first female attorney general in the state
Speaker 3: of Florida, and she focused on number one, challenging Obamacare.
Speaker 3: She focused on taking on human trafficking and she also
Speaker 3: focused on shutting down pill mills and fighting the state's
Speaker 3: opioid crisis, and she held that post for eight years
Speaker 3: until twenty nineteen. She is right now the chair of
Speaker 3: the Center of Litigation and also co chair of the
Speaker 3: Center for Law and Justice at the America First Policy Institute.
Speaker 3: And she was very notably part of his defense team.
Speaker 3: Trump's defense team in the first impeachment trial. So when
Speaker 3: Verdict started, when this podcast began, the very first Verdict
Speaker 3: podcast was the first night of the first Trump impeachment trial,
Speaker 3: and I came from the Senate Flora where we spent
Speaker 3: the entire day there, came to the studio and recorded
Speaker 3: Verdict the very initial episode. And actually Verdict at the
Speaker 3: time went from non existent. We started with zero listeners,
Speaker 3: zero viewers. It went from non existent to its skyrocketed
Speaker 3: up the charts and became the number one rank podcast
Speaker 3: in the world, beating Joe Rogan, beating the New York Times,
Speaker 3: beating everybody. Pam at the time was someone I worked
Speaker 3: with closely during that impeachment trial, and she is a serious,
Speaker 3: capable trial lawyer. And I got to tell you, look,
Speaker 3: Attorney General is a job that requires competence. It requires
Speaker 3: knowledge of the law. It requires good judgment, and it
Speaker 3: requires backbone, and I think Pam's got all three. And
Speaker 3: it is a job where competence really matters. Listen that
Speaker 3: this administration is going to face all sorts of legal challenges.
Speaker 3: It's going to face blue states and blue attorneys general
Speaker 3: filing lawsuits day after day after day. It is going
Speaker 3: to face every step President Trump takes, he's gonna face
Speaker 3: law fair on the other side. And one of the
Speaker 3: most important responsibilities for an Attorney general is to give good,
Speaker 3: sound legal advice about how to navigate those land mines,
Speaker 3: how to implement the Trump policy in a way that
Speaker 3: survives and is durable legally.
Speaker 5: And I got to say, I think I think Pam
Speaker 5: will do an excellent job.
Speaker 2: You talk about the role as the AG, and there's
Speaker 2: so many different things you're involved in. It's a lot
Speaker 2: of it is managing and making sure that people are
Speaker 2: doing their jobs well and find the right people. There's
Speaker 2: also the deep stated aspect of this that people are saying, hey,
Speaker 2: we want to get the bad actors out. She is
Speaker 2: actually defended Donald Trump against those activists and the deep
Speaker 2: state that we're coming after him. How important is her
Speaker 2: just seeing that and defending him and knowing what they
Speaker 2: were doing to him and to others around him, whether
Speaker 2: it be Flynn, the list goes on and on. That
Speaker 2: will help her do better, be better at this job
Speaker 2: than maybe anyone else.
Speaker 3: Look, she's strong and she's loyal to the president, but
Speaker 3: she also cares about the rule of law, and you
Speaker 3: need to have both to do this job effectively. This
Speaker 3: may be the single hardest job in the incoming Trump administration.
Speaker 3: And look, I want to give you an example. Take
Speaker 3: a look at Pam and.
Speaker 5: Who she is.
Speaker 6: These criminals made one very big mistake. They wound up
Speaker 6: in Polk County. And I'll tell you it's bad enough
Speaker 6: in one thing to profit from poisoning others, but it's
Speaker 6: another when you bring drugs from Mexico into our country California, Texas, Georgia,
Speaker 6: and end up in our state and do it with impunity.
Speaker 6: Because when you're in this country illegally and you're doing
Speaker 6: things illegally, I want to tell you, and you wind
Speaker 6: up in Polk County, Grady Judd is gonna find you,
Speaker 6: the DEA is gonna help them, and my statewide prosecutors
Speaker 6: are gonna lie you up for as long as we can.
Speaker 7: And we're gonna enjoy it.
Speaker 6: And each of these defendants are looking at fifteen thirty
Speaker 6: years in Florida State prison for conspiracy to traffic drugs.
Speaker 2: I mean, she's not messing around, and I love the
Speaker 2: sheriff there by the way. We're going to enjoy it.
Speaker 2: But I mean, this is I think her life work.
Speaker 2: She's saying, let's go. You want to go to war,
Speaker 2: We're gonna go war against the bad guys. We're gonna
Speaker 2: protect Americans. We're gonna go after the cartels, we're gonna
Speaker 2: go after the drugs. We're gonna go after the people
Speaker 2: that are doing this across our borders. And she mentioned
Speaker 2: all those states, including Texas. That's why I'm excited about her.
Speaker 3: Well, and for those of you all listening to this
Speaker 3: on audio, what we just played as a video of
Speaker 3: a press conference of her bringing a prosecution against drug traffickers,
Speaker 3: against criminals, and as you noted, the sheriff behind her
Speaker 3: quick quickly chimes in, and we're going to enjoy it.
Speaker 3: I mean, this is we need an attorney general who
Speaker 3: is tough, who is focused on securing the border, is
Speaker 3: focused on stopping human traffickers, is focused on stopping drug traffickers.
Speaker 3: I think Pam's going to do an excellent job of that.
Speaker 3: And by the way, if you don't trust me on it,
Speaker 3: let me give you someone else. If you don't want
Speaker 3: to take my word for it, take Al Sharpton's word
Speaker 3: for it. Give a listen to Al Sharpton on MSNBC.
Speaker 8: Absolutely, I think it was the wise thing for the
Speaker 8: Trump people and for President and LEC Trump to withdraw
Speaker 8: him now because a long term spectacle of days and
Speaker 8: weeks or would only damage them even more. Take your
Speaker 8: losses shot. Let him walk away because he was never
Speaker 8: qualified and he could not give any reasonable argument as
Speaker 8: to why he'd be attorney general. I talked to people
Speaker 8: that I know in Florida last night that on the
Speaker 8: civil rights side, we have a chapter in NAWSH Action
Speaker 8: Network there. Bondy is certainly on the right. But she
Speaker 8: is one who's qualified to become Attorney general in terms
Speaker 8: of she's handled cases, she's managed officers, and yes, we
Speaker 8: can raise questions about which he did with Trump University,
Speaker 8: but there's no glaring things in terms of her values
Speaker 8: and models. You're talking about gates with underage sex. You're
Speaker 8: talking about Ronnie of that has been documented that was
Speaker 8: center around, and to put him in charge of the
Speaker 8: Justice Department made a mockery of the system. So I
Speaker 8: think it was better for Trump, not that I'm a
Speaker 8: Trump person at all, but it was better for him
Speaker 8: and certainly better for the American public to get Gates
Speaker 8: off the seat.
Speaker 2: I mean, he's saying like, I don't know how you're
Speaker 2: going to attack her, and that's on MSNBC. I think
Speaker 2: she's qualified, she knows how to do the job. She's
Speaker 2: been elected by the people of a big state, not once,
Speaker 2: but twice. And basically, if Al Sharpton, that's like a
Speaker 2: glowing reviewers if you're a Republican.
Speaker 3: Yeah, look, that's basically Sharpton going, oh crap, yeah, like
Speaker 3: this is a good choice. And I'm Al Sharpton and
Speaker 3: I really hate that this is a good choice. That's
Speaker 3: an awfully good recommendation. Here's another one. Take a listen.
Speaker 9: Action I got from inside the Justice Department last night
Speaker 9: was this is Matt Gates with a better legal resume.
Speaker 9: But the legal resume is significant, Willie and guys, because
Speaker 9: Pam Bondi was a career prosecutor down there in Hillsborough
Speaker 9: County for many, many years before she was elected Florida's
Speaker 9: first female Attorney general. So she's prosecuted major cases, murders, death,
Speaker 9: penalty cases. She understands how that works. Matt Gates had
Speaker 9: never really been much of a lawyer before he was
Speaker 9: elected to the Florida legislature, so that's a big difference.
Speaker 9: And you know she at the same time, though, she
Speaker 9: is you know, an extreme maga activist and has tainted
Speaker 9: her legal career with very strong stands in favor of
Speaker 9: some questionable things. There was a famous incident back in
Speaker 9: around ten years ago when if you remember, Trump University,
Speaker 9: that for profit university that Donald Trump ran, was getting
Speaker 9: a lot of consumer complaints about being a scam, and
Speaker 9: her office was asked to join a multi state lawsuit
Speaker 9: and Donald Trump's foundation contributed twenty five thousand dollars to
Speaker 9: her campaign and she opted not to join that lawsuit
Speaker 9: in his foundation was later fined for making a legal contribution.
Speaker 9: So look, she served her tenured eight years as Florida
Speaker 9: Attorney General. She later went on to be one of
Speaker 9: Donald Trump's impeachment defense lawyers in the Ukraine impeachment in
Speaker 9: twenty twenty made a speech on the House floor during
Speaker 9: the trial arguing that there was a Biden corruption scandal
Speaker 9: in Ukraine and that that's why that phone call was okay.
Speaker 9: And she's also raised questions about fraud in the twenty
Speaker 9: twenty election, which people think were baseless. So it's a
Speaker 9: bit of a mixed bag. But people are breathing a
Speaker 9: little bit of a sigh of relief of the Justice
Speaker 9: Department that at least she's a real lawyer, and that
Speaker 9: her deputy, Todd Blanche, donald Trump's defense attorney, does have
Speaker 9: a lot of experience in the Justice Department and is
Speaker 9: also well regarded over there. Net people are thinking this
Speaker 9: is a much better situation than Matt Gates. But she
Speaker 9: is certainly a Donald Trump loyalist who has also raised
Speaker 9: questions about weaponization at the Justice Department and may really
Speaker 9: cause some trouble over there from the perspective of some
Speaker 9: of the career folks.
Speaker 2: If you want to know what a weak argument looks
Speaker 2: like from MSNBC, like, well, there's something maybe ten years ago.
Speaker 2: And by the way, if you actually heard her explanation
Speaker 2: on the Trump University thing, she said, we looked at
Speaker 2: the number of people that could have been effected in
Speaker 2: the state, and we decided it wasn't worth any of
Speaker 2: our time to even look at this for X, Y
Speaker 2: and Z purposes. And there was a bunch of liberals
Speaker 2: that went after him, but they went back over a
Speaker 2: decade to find something pretty darn obscure and they're like, well,
Speaker 2: her biggest liability is she's friends with Donald Trump.
Speaker 1: Well it's the Trump administration. Get used to it.
Speaker 3: Well, And once again, that's an MSNBC legal analyst who
Speaker 3: is laying that out, who says she's a serious lawyer,
Speaker 3: career prosecutor, real lawyer, knows how to lead teams, no
Speaker 3: hes how to run organizations, knows how to bring a case.
Speaker 3: That's their attempt to attack her. And their attack is, well,
Speaker 3: you know she she's a Trump loyalist.
Speaker 2: Well knows is gonna get the job.
Speaker 5: You know.
Speaker 3: Funny thing. I mean, Eric Holder was the runner up.
Speaker 3: And you know, I'm sure Trump was thinking about, give
Speaker 3: me a radical leftist who wants to destroy my administration.
Speaker 3: And as much as MSNBC would love that, that was
Speaker 3: not going to happen. Listen, where is this going to
Speaker 3: go now? Pambondi's going to be confirmed?
Speaker 1: You have no doubt about that.
Speaker 3: I think she'll be confirmed easily, barring some dramatically unexpected step,
Speaker 3: which I don't expect. Yeah, you know, she will be confirmed.
Speaker 3: I think she will have a straightforward hearing in the
Speaker 3: Judiciary Committee. The Democrats will take some shots at her,
Speaker 3: but you just saw from MSNBC they don't have much.
Speaker 2: I'd start with just quoting Al Sharpton. I'm glad we're
Speaker 2: here today. Al Sharpton said this about you.
Speaker 3: All right, that's not bad. I mean you can still
Speaker 3: that Sharpton. You know, I'm going to have my questioning.
Speaker 3: I've never quoted Al Sharp.
Speaker 1: Do you get to check two boxes? That day? The
Speaker 1: Democrats will also crib she.
Speaker 3: Is going to be confirmed. It is going to be straightforward.
Speaker 3: And I got to say this is not our rundown
Speaker 3: for topics today. But but we just did play two
Speaker 3: clips from MSNBC, and for the record, we're doing this
Speaker 3: before Elon Musk buys MSNBC.
Speaker 2: Mx NBC. That's whatever it's trending on Twitter right now.
Speaker 2: I got it.
Speaker 1: I should say.
Speaker 3: I gotta say it is a phenomenal thing. I've been
Speaker 3: encouraging Elon. Do it, do it, do it. I gotta
Speaker 3: say it would be a fabulous thing. And maybe that's
Speaker 3: what Al Sharpton is doing. Maybe maybe alas a job,
Speaker 3: I want a job. Nobody else is paying me. Please,
Speaker 3: I want a job even on MSNBC as the wild
Speaker 3: I'd left as they are today. We played their clips
Speaker 3: twice and there's a reason for that. Pambody's nomination was
Speaker 3: a very strong nomination.
Speaker 2: If you're a guy and you feel like you got
Speaker 2: a little bit older, you feel like you're a little fatigued,
Speaker 2: you feel like you're just a little tired, You're not alone. Men'
Speaker 2: SAESASTM levels are off a cliff historically at an all
Speaker 2: time low. Well, thankfully, the patriots at Chalk Spelled Choq
Speaker 2: are helping real America men take back their right to

Speaker 2: let's move on to something else, and that is there
Speaker 2: is like two dumpster fires that seem to be happening
Speaker 2: simultaneously with the Biden administration his team around him. And
Speaker 2: I think Americans should be incredibly angry over this for
Speaker 2: the fact that they're clearly saying, we know we lost
Speaker 2: the election, we know you chose a different path, but
Speaker 2: we're gonna stick it to the American people and also
Speaker 2: stick it to the Trump administration. Biden has decided at
Speaker 2: the very end of his administration not respecting the voters
Speaker 2: when one of their top issues was border security, to
Speaker 2: loose in key migrant policies quote unquote, right before you
Speaker 2: go into December January and until January twentieth one. Obviously
Speaker 2: Donald Trump would undo all of this.
Speaker 5: Well, it's late November.
Speaker 10: Now.
Speaker 3: Let me point out a couple of things. Number One,
Speaker 3: have you seen Joe Biden in weeks? No, I guess
Speaker 3: he's still on vacation. Look, Kamala Harris is in Hawaii.
Speaker 3: Joe Biden, I don't know where the hell he is.
Speaker 3: I'm not sure if we actually have a president of
Speaker 3: the United States right now. They're certainly not allowing him
Speaker 3: to go outside or to appear on camera. And even so,
Speaker 3: even though we have an A Wall president and an
Speaker 3: A Wall Vice president, I think it is absolutely clear
Speaker 3: that both Biden and Harris want Trump to fail. They
Speaker 3: want the problems in this country to get worse, and
Speaker 3: they want to make sure that Donald Trump inherits the
Speaker 3: worst stinking pile of crap possible. So you look at
Speaker 3: challenges at home and abroad. At home, the greatest domestic
Speaker 3: challenge we have is the open borders that Joe Biden
Speaker 3: Kamala Harris put in place. Abroad, the greatest challenge we
Speaker 3: have are the wars that are unfolding because of Joe
Speaker 3: Biden and Kamala Harris's weakness, domestically.
Speaker 5: What are they doing?
Speaker 3: Well, apparently neither Biden nor Harris learned a damn thing
Speaker 3: from the election. They didn't hear from the voters that
Speaker 3: they don't want an open border, they don't want this invasion.
Speaker 3: So instead they're doubling down and they're trying to make
Speaker 3: it harder for Trump to come in with the new administration,
Speaker 3: secure the border and remove dangerous criminal illegal aliens. Take
Speaker 3: a listen to this reporting on Fox about what specifically
Speaker 3: the Biden administration is doing, Sandra.
Speaker 7: The Biden administration is quietly loosening immigration policies before Trump
Speaker 7: takes offense. This according to The New York Post. It
Speaker 7: reports the administration is testing a new app that will
Speaker 7: allow illegal migrants to bypass in person check ins at
Speaker 7: their local ice office.
Speaker 1: Jeff Paul is Live with More.
Speaker 7: It sounds like they're just giving Donald Trump one more
Speaker 7: thing to undo.
Speaker 10: Well, Jaw, we do know the Biden administration has been
Speaker 10: testing this new immigration and cut Them's app, and the
Speaker 10: idea is to streamline the check in process for migrants,
Speaker 10: allow them to use their phones or computers to touch
Speaker 10: base with immigration officials while they wait for their date
Speaker 10: in court. Instead of appearing for those check ins in person.
Speaker 10: A source tells Fox News Ice has been using the
Speaker 10: app already in a couple of cities, but according to
Speaker 10: the New York Post, it's going to be launched officially
Speaker 10: next month in New York City. The field office there
Speaker 10: reportedly has been overwhelmed, fully booked with appointments for a year.
Speaker 10: Our sources tell us that's really the push to get
Speaker 10: this backlogged moved through. The concerns regarding this app. Obviously,
Speaker 10: it's a new app, so there's going to be some glitches.
Speaker 10: The other wider concern is could it cause even more
Speaker 10: migrants to go under the radar. We'll have to see
Speaker 10: what happens.
Speaker 4: John.
Speaker 2: There's also some major issues in the reporting with this app.
Speaker 2: For example, the app reportedly has severe glitches and issues
Speaker 2: and does not track a migrants location if he or
Speaker 2: she is using an Android phone or laptop. So hey,
Speaker 2: if you're an legal immigrant, just don't use an iPhone
Speaker 2: and they won't be able to track you. The app
Speaker 2: also does not check migrants for pass arrests or outstanding warrants,
Speaker 2: which is what they do now currently, and so that's
Speaker 2: another problem.
Speaker 1: They say.
Speaker 2: The app allows them to opt out of the contest
Speaker 2: government orders to undergo electronic tracking, so you can just
Speaker 2: say no, I don't want to be tracked.
Speaker 1: There's no way to find you.
Speaker 2: And they know all of these glitches are in here,
Speaker 2: and yet they're going, yes, we should move forward with this,
Speaker 2: knowing that Donald Trump's going to undo it.
Speaker 3: Well, understand, the problem is not just that Donald Trump's
Speaker 3: going to undo it, but the Biden administration is trying
Speaker 3: to make it harder to find these illegal immigrants. Why
Speaker 3: would you say, Hey, you don't have to check in
Speaker 3: in person. Hey, you can check in on an app
Speaker 3: that doesn't track your location, if you're on an Android
Speaker 3: for it. Hey, you can check in in a way
Speaker 3: that we're not going to find out if you've been arrested,
Speaker 3: if you have a warrant. This is all designed to
Speaker 3: help illegal immigrants go underground because Joe Biden, Kamala Harrison.
Speaker 3: Let's be clear, every Democrat in the House and Senate,
Speaker 3: you don't hear any of the Democrats speaking out of
Speaker 3: it against this. None of them are saying this is wrong,
Speaker 3: don't do this. This is designed to make it more
Speaker 3: difficult for the incoming administration to find illegal immigrants. And
Speaker 3: to arrest illegal immigrants and to deport illegal immigrants. That
Speaker 3: includes the convicted murderers that have been released by this administration,
Speaker 3: the convicted rapists, the convicted child molesters. You look at,
Speaker 3: twenty twenty three set the record for the highest number
Speaker 3: of illegal immigrants entering the country in a single year,
Speaker 3: three point two million. And Joe Biden and Kamala Harris
Speaker 3: they don't want those illegal immigrants removed from this country.
Speaker 3: They see them as future Democrat voters. This is all
Speaker 3: about power, and I got to say it is stunning.
Speaker 3: Well here, I want you to take a look at this,
Speaker 3: this tweet from Bill malusion that lays out some of
Speaker 3: the numbers. And for those of y'all that are listening,
Speaker 3: I'm going to read it to you. This is what
Speaker 3: Bill Malujin tweeted, new per US official to Fox News.
Speaker 3: There are currently one point four million illegal immigrants in
Speaker 3: the US who have been ordered deported by a DOJ
Speaker 3: immigration judge but haven't been removed yet.
Speaker 2: So that's, by the way, if people want to know
Speaker 2: where Trump's going to start, I think Bill Malugin's tweet
Speaker 2: is a great reminder. There are one point four million
Speaker 2: illegal immigancs US have been ordered to be deported. So
Speaker 2: if you want to know where they're going to start,
Speaker 2: this is where they would start.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm told approximately thirteen thousand of them are being
Speaker 3: held in ice custody, So out of one point four million,
Speaker 3: only thirteen thousand are in custody. The population of one
Speaker 3: point four million illegal immigrants have final orders of removal,
Speaker 3: meaning they have had their immigration cases heard, receive their
Speaker 3: due process, and have been ordered removed from the US
Speaker 3: by a DOJ federal immigration judge. A fraction of them
Speaker 3: may still have appeal options available to them and may
Speaker 3: not yet be removable. With only thirteen thousand in federalized custody,
Speaker 3: we are potentially looking at a lot of people roaming
Speaker 3: around the country who are in the US illegally and
Speaker 3: who have been ordered removed. It is possible to know
Speaker 3: how many of them may be in state or local custodies.
Speaker 3: That one point four million, You're right, is exactly where
Speaker 3: I expect the Trump administration to start. I also expect
Speaker 3: them to start with the five hundred thousand convicted criminals,
Speaker 3: those with other criminal convictions murder, rape, child molestation, who
Speaker 3: are illegal immigrants, who are released to go and apprehend
Speaker 3: the criminals. Go after the murderers, the rapists, the child molesters,
Speaker 3: go after the Venezuelan gang members. If you're a Venezuelan
Speaker 3: gang member, my advice is pack up and move out
Speaker 3: right now, because we're coming for you. That this administration
Speaker 3: is going to arrest you. They're going to remove you,
Speaker 3: they're going to deport you, and if you've committed criminal offenses,
Speaker 3: they're going to put you in jail.
Speaker 2: Let's talk about the tone death aspect of this, and
Speaker 2: I say tone death. Some people would care. They don't
Speaker 2: seem to care. Referring to the Biden administration. You just
Speaker 2: had a trial that was watched in Georgia of an
Speaker 2: incredible young lady who fought for a life.
Speaker 1: For eighteen minutes.
Speaker 2: Eighteen minutes she was fighting to save her own life.
Speaker 2: She was ultimately killed by an league emmorrant that we
Speaker 2: were paying for the hotel rooms, we were flying him
Speaker 2: from New York to Georgia, and we're allowing him to
Speaker 2: be able to kill this incredible student in nursing school.
Speaker 2: And yet the response from this administration is, yeah, we're
Speaker 2: gonna keep facilitating that and do it on an app
Speaker 2: and make sure we can't track people for the next
Speaker 2: seventy days because well, we're sorry that you guys picked
Speaker 2: Donald Trump and you wanted security.
Speaker 1: We're not gonna give that to you.
Speaker 5: Well, it's even worse than that.
Speaker 3: The attitude of a great many Democrats is massive resistance.
Speaker 3: It is reminiscent of Bull Connor during the Civil rights battles.
Speaker 3: Bull Connor was an elected Democrat who did not want
Speaker 3: to follow the law and was defying the law, and
Speaker 3: he was bitterly angry. I want you to get Give
Speaker 3: a listen to a modern day Bull Connor, which is
Speaker 3: the Democrat mayor of the city of Denver. Give a
Speaker 3: listen to what he has to.
Speaker 4: Say about civil disobedience. You've mentioned that a couple of
Speaker 4: times now. Would you be willing to participate in those
Speaker 4: as the mayor of Denver? Would you be willing to
Speaker 4: go out and protest these things?
Speaker 11: I would if I believe that our residents are having
Speaker 11: their rights violate. If I think things are happening that
Speaker 11: are illegal or immoral or an American in our city,
Speaker 11: I would certainly protest it, and I would expect other
Speaker 11: residents would do the same.
Speaker 4: Trump's new borders are. Tom Homan has said that he
Speaker 4: is willing to arrest leaders like yourself for standing in
Speaker 4: the way of these policies that they want to enact.
Speaker 4: Would you be willing to go to jail for these things?
Speaker 11: Yeah, I'm not afraid of that, and I'm also not
Speaker 11: seeking that. I think the goal is we want to
Speaker 11: be able to negotiate with reasonable people how to solve
Speaker 11: hard problems for publican and democratic presidence in the past
Speaker 11: have all tried to find solutions to these problems. President
Speaker 11: Reagan help people get access to work so they could
Speaker 11: stay and support themselves. Biden Harris worked on restricting entry
Speaker 11: at the border to close down There are a lot
Speaker 11: of ways to approach this problem. We don't think it
Speaker 11: has to come to this, but yeah, I think when
Speaker 11: you look at Ralph Carr has always been one of
Speaker 11: my heroes. He was the governor who in the middle
Speaker 11: of the interment of Japanese Americans said this was the
Speaker 11: wrong thing to do, and he stood up. It was unpopular.
Speaker 11: People were mad at them about it. That was the
Speaker 11: middle of wartime. If the president or any of his
Speaker 11: actors are going to do things that we think are
Speaker 11: illegal or immoral, or an American will stand up against those.
Speaker 1: It's amazing how the law doesn't matter.
Speaker 2: He just said, well, if it's the thing I think
Speaker 2: is immoral, then I'm going to just say I'm not
Speaker 2: going to follow the law. That's clearly and they want
Speaker 2: to become martyrs, they want to become famous. He's enjoying
Speaker 2: this moment. Please put me in handcuffs, make me a martyr.
Speaker 2: And I'm saying that we are still a sanctuary city.
Speaker 3: So understand, the mayor of Denver is the modern day
Speaker 3: Bull Conner. He is standing at the courthouse saying I
Speaker 3: will block federal law. I will not follow federal law
Speaker 3: because my politics, my prejudices. It's interesting he referenced Japanese
Speaker 3: internment camps. Who was it that ordered Japanese internment camps?
Speaker 3: That was a Democrat president.
Speaker 5: Fdr.
Speaker 3: You want to talk about patterns of lawlessness, The Democrat
Speaker 3: Party has over a century of history of lawlessness.
Speaker 5: And I'm going to call for something right now.
Speaker 3: So the mayor of Denver is said, we want illegal
Speaker 3: immigrants in our city. We will fight to keep illegal
Speaker 3: immigrants in our city. I don't care that the voters
Speaker 3: don't want it. I don't care what federal law says.
Speaker 3: I don't care about the women being murdered, the women
Speaker 3: being raped, the children being assaulted. I'm going to call
Speaker 3: right now for Greg Abbott, the governor of Texas, for
Speaker 3: Ron de Santis, the governor of Florida, for any other
Speaker 3: red governor to start sending buses to Denver, Colorado. Mayor
Speaker 3: of Denver wants illegal immigrants. Well, you know what, Joe Biden.
Speaker 3: One of the lies that mayor just said as well,
Speaker 3: Biden and Harris tightened the standards at the border. That
Speaker 3: is called a lie. They didn't tighten the standard, They
Speaker 3: open up the border. Texas is being invaded right now,
Speaker 3: and I'm going to urge the state government of Texas
Speaker 3: send every one of the illegals who comes into the
Speaker 3: state to Denver, Colorado, drop them off in front of
Speaker 3: the mayor's residence. He wants them there. He's willing to
Speaker 3: go to jail to fight for them to be there. Fine,
Speaker 3: we will send you the Vennezuelan gang members to your
Speaker 3: city and let's see. You know, I'm going to predict
Speaker 3: right now the residents of Denver aren't going to like this.
Speaker 3: I'm going to predict right now.
Speaker 1: When is a tipping point?
Speaker 2: That was the question was going to ask you, because
Speaker 2: it is in Colorado where we've seen these gangs from
Speaker 2: Venezuela take over apartment complexes.
Speaker 5: Aurora, Colorado.
Speaker 3: And by the way, ABC, the corporate media just said, well,
Speaker 3: it was only a handful of apartment complex.
Speaker 5: Well you know of them.
Speaker 3: You know what, We'll send a few more and let
Speaker 3: us know when you would like us to stop because
Speaker 3: you're so proud see today's Democrat. They don't fight for
Speaker 3: American citizens, They fight for illegal immigrants. They fight for
Speaker 3: Venezuelan gang members. They want more of them there. Well,
Speaker 3: I'm happy to remove them from the state of Texas,
Speaker 3: to remove them from Florida, to remove them from other
Speaker 3: red states and guess what, they can all all learn
Speaker 3: to be ski pros.
Speaker 2: Is it a real threat? And I'm not kidding when
Speaker 2: I say this, I mean it really. Is this a
Speaker 2: real threat to these mayors where they don't realize what's
Speaker 2: about to change because illegal immigrants are going to hear
Speaker 2: this through translation that if you're in a place that
Speaker 2: where they're starting to arrest people. Let's say you use Texas,
Speaker 2: Let's say you use Houston as a great example. Let's
Speaker 2: say that people actually are getting arrested in being deported
Speaker 2: and then.
Speaker 1: You're like, we got to get out of here.
Speaker 2: Is this not going to be one of the biggest
Speaker 2: backfires in modern political history where illegal imm're gonna say, hey,
Speaker 2: we hear that Denver and we have a video of
Speaker 2: the Denver mayor saying come here and you'll be safe,
Speaker 2: will protect you, and they get flooded, just like New
Speaker 2: York City and other sanctuary cities.
Speaker 3: By the way, Denver is also one of the whitest
Speaker 3: cities in America. So you've got rich white liberals saying,
Speaker 3: come invade our city. We don't care if our families
Speaker 3: are at risk from violent criminals. It is an example
Speaker 3: the Democrats didn't learn anything from this election. They're not repentant.
Speaker 3: They didn't say, gosh, our first responsibility should be protect Americans,
Speaker 3: keep American family safe. No, they're doubling down on we
Speaker 3: are woke, here are roar.
Speaker 2: If you carry a firearm, you need to make sure
Speaker 2: that you are protected twenty four to seven. And with
Speaker 2: a lot of woke activist das out there, they don't
Speaker 2: like law abiding citizens that carry firearms. And that's why
Speaker 2: there's over eight hundred thousand Americans that are members of
Speaker 2: the USCCA, because not only will you get access to
Speaker 2: their Protector Academy to learn vital skills like precision shooting
Speaker 2: and how to fortify your home against criminals, but you're
Speaker 2: also going to get access to the twenty four to
Speaker 2: seven Critical Response Team and that includes the benefit of
Speaker 2: self defense liability insurance to make sure that you and
Speaker 2: your family are prepared for anything. Let me tell you,
Speaker 2: I've had to use my firearm to protect and save
Speaker 2: my own life, and I wish I would have known
Speaker 2: about the usccaight then, so someone was looking out for
Speaker 2: my rights right after I had to pull the trigger.
Speaker 2: And for a limited time, you can text the word
Speaker 2: America right now to eight seven two two two to
Speaker 2: get the uscca's free Life Saving, Concealed Carry and Family
Speaker 2: Defense Guide, as well as an awesome chance to win
Speaker 2: seventeen hundred dollars to buy any self defense gear that
Speaker 2: you need before it's too late. So why not get
Speaker 2: a chance to win seventeen hundred dollars right now? Text
Speaker 2: the word America to eight seven to two two. That's
Speaker 2: text the word America to eight seven tow to two
Speaker 2: right now. Finally, Sata, this is a big one, and
Speaker 2: I worry more and more, especially over the last seventy
Speaker 2: two hours about this headline. And it is the question
Speaker 2: that a lot of Americans are asking, is Biden trying
Speaker 2: to start World War three just so that he can
Speaker 2: bog down a Trump agenda? They you know, they had
Speaker 2: Russian collusion in sixteen and the impeachment, and that was
Speaker 2: how they wanted to bog down Donald Trump. But now
Speaker 2: we're seeing decisions that are being made, not that we're
Speaker 2: in their foreign policy for the last four years, only
Speaker 2: after they lost. It's like, hey, we're going to allow
Speaker 2: American missiles to go deep inside of Russia. We're gonna
Speaker 2: give the thumbs up to Ukraine to do that. And
Speaker 2: now we're hearing about we're going to have land mindes
Speaker 2: that we've been against for quite some time.
Speaker 1: Yeah, we're going to send you those as well.
Speaker 3: Two decisions that have played out in the last ten days.
Speaker 3: Number one, the Biden White House has signed off on
Speaker 3: Ukraine firing US made long range missiles directly into Russia,
Speaker 3: attacking Russia, attacking within the interior of Russia using American weapons.
Speaker 3: And number two, as you just noted the Biden administration
Speaker 3: signing off on sending anti personnel land mines to Ukraine
Speaker 3: again to use against Russian citizens. But one of the
Speaker 3: problems with land mines is they often stay buried and
Speaker 3: they kill civilians for years or even decades later. And
Speaker 3: one thing you noted that I think was important during
Speaker 3: the entire course of this war, Joe Biden and Kamala
Speaker 3: Harris haven't signed off on either of these steps until
Speaker 3: right now. So before the election they didn't want to
Speaker 3: do so, when they would have owned any escalation that
Speaker 3: came from it, they didn't give the green light. But
Speaker 3: after the election's over, after they're on the way out,
Speaker 3: it's like they're standing there pouring gasoline around the White
Speaker 3: House and looking for a match. I mean, they really are,
Speaker 3: I think, trying to light things on fire. I got
Speaker 3: to say, as this news was breaking, I was on
Speaker 3: Trump Force one with President Trump flying down to Boka
Speaker 3: Chik in Brownsville, Texas for the SpaceX launch, and we
Speaker 3: were watching on TV the news about the Biden administration
Speaker 3: and what it was doing to deliberately escalate the war
Speaker 3: in Ukraine, the war with Russia. I got to say,
Speaker 3: every person on the plane, we were all shaking our
Speaker 3: heads saying they're trying to start World War three. I mean,
Speaker 3: I mean that's it is deliberately trying to make things worse.
Speaker 3: And understand, we will see next year the war in
Speaker 3: Ukraine will be over and the war in Israel will
Speaker 3: be over both of those. Israel will defeat Hamas that
Speaker 3: is going to happen, and the war in Ukraine will end.
Speaker 3: It will end with some sort of negotiated settlement. I
Speaker 3: believe it will end with Russia losing, facing a serious loss,
Speaker 3: but it will come to an end. And this Biden
Speaker 3: Whitehouse they don't want either of those outcomes to happen.
Speaker 3: And so these decisions I think are systematically designed to
Speaker 3: make it harder and harder and harder to end these wars.
Speaker 3: And they're incredibly irresponsible. It is the foreign policy equivalent
Speaker 3: of what they're doing on the border in both instances,
Speaker 3: trying to make it all as bad as possible before.
Speaker 5: The new administration comes in.
Speaker 2: Can we just go back to twenty sixteen and the
Speaker 2: narrative finally, which was Donald Trump is unhinged, Donald Trump
Speaker 2: is going to start World War three.
Speaker 1: It was all over the news for weeks on end. Oh,
Speaker 1: this guy's unhinged. He's crazy.
Speaker 2: He's got the nuclear codes, he's got the football right
Speaker 2: in the briefcase, and you can't trust him, and he's
Speaker 2: going to start war three and he's a threat to
Speaker 2: national security. He didn't start any wars. He didn't send
Speaker 2: land mines, by the way to the countries to use them.
Speaker 2: And now we have these decisions that are being made.
Speaker 2: Where is the international condination of this, Like it's been
Speaker 2: pretty quiet, like you would think a lot of people
Speaker 2: would be seeing it going America.
Speaker 1: You don't need to be doing this. You certainly don't
Speaker 1: need to be sending land mines.
Speaker 2: When this broke, I was googling news stories about trying
Speaker 2: to get current information. There was an article about a
Speaker 2: week ago that there was a landmine. And this is
Speaker 2: the reason why much the world says no to this.
Speaker 2: That was from World War two eighty years ago that
Speaker 2: blew up under a tarmac in Japan. It was an
Speaker 2: American land mine that was used during World War two.
Speaker 2: And that's how long these things can stay around. That's
Speaker 2: the reason why there's some people are like, hey, let's
Speaker 2: not do this. If we like, let's dial this back
Speaker 2: and they're like, Yeah, this is a great idea. Let's
Speaker 2: just throw them out there to Ukraine. See what happens.
Speaker 5: Well.
Speaker 3: And I got to say, I'm not convinced that either
Speaker 3: Biden or Harris are the decision makers here. I think
Speaker 3: Kamala is on a beach somewhere in Hawaii and I
Speaker 3: have no indication that she is engaged in anything. And
Speaker 3: Joe Biden, who hell knows what he knows. I think
Speaker 3: this is the bitter partisans in the White House. I
Speaker 3: think this is the young apparatchicks who've been running the
Speaker 3: federal government for four years. Anyway, I think this is
Speaker 3: Obama lashing out, and I think this is this team
Speaker 3: and his team, and I think there deliberately.
Speaker 5: I think it is brazenly irresponsible.
Speaker 3: It's called sabotage, and that is what they are trying
Speaker 3: to do on the way out.
Speaker 5: And you know what, if you.
Speaker 3: Prioritize the welfare of the United States of America, you
Speaker 3: wouldn't do this.
Speaker 2: And look, and this was not their policy for the
Speaker 2: entire administration.
Speaker 5: It is designed.
Speaker 3: It is the equivalent of taking a pile of dog manure,
Speaker 3: putting it in a paper bag, lighting it on fire.
Speaker 3: Sticking it on someone's front door and ringing the doorbell.
Speaker 3: That's what they're trying to do to the incoming administration.
Speaker 2: Who cares who dies in the process. It's incredible. Don't forget.
