1
00:00:01,680 --> 00:00:04,000
Speaker 1: We're making a lot of money this country. This country

2
00:00:04,080 --> 00:00:06,040
Speaker 1: is not going to be losing money on trade anymore.

3
00:00:06,400 --> 00:00:08,760
Speaker 1: I think we were losing two trillion dollars a year

4
00:00:08,800 --> 00:00:09,280
Speaker 1: on trade.

5
00:00:09,320 --> 00:00:10,520
Speaker 2: Now we're going to be making.

6
00:00:10,280 --> 00:00:12,200
Speaker 1: Money, a lot of money. We'll be able to lower

7
00:00:12,280 --> 00:00:15,280
Speaker 1: taxes substantially, and we're going to be proud of ourselves.

8
00:00:15,440 --> 00:00:19,079
Speaker 3: You're listening to the forty seven Morning Update with Ben Ferguson.

9
00:00:19,120 --> 00:00:21,239

Speaker 4: What are the details. I'll have that for you in

15
00:00:35,600 --> 00:00:38,440
Speaker 4: just a second. And also a major story is we

16
00:00:38,440 --> 00:00:40,640
Speaker 4: were at the White House. We sat down with the

17
00:00:40,640 --> 00:00:43,680
Speaker 4: Assistant Secretary of the Department of Home in Security to

18
00:00:43,800 --> 00:00:46,880
Speaker 4: talk about where we are when it comes to deportations,

19
00:00:46,880 --> 00:00:50,480
Speaker 4: including those in MS thirteen gangs. We're also talking about

20
00:00:50,479 --> 00:00:53,120
Speaker 4: securing the border and what the numbers look like. Right

21
00:00:53,159 --> 00:00:56,120
Speaker 4: now that live from the White House. It's the forty

22
00:00:56,160 --> 00:00:58,639
Speaker 4: seven Morning Update, and it starts right.

23
00:00:58,440 --> 00:01:01,080
Speaker 2: Now story number one. It is a step in the

24
00:01:01,160 --> 00:01:01,840
Speaker 2: right direction.

25
00:01:02,120 --> 00:01:05,840
Speaker 4: President Donald Trump saying that the entire world now wants

26
00:01:05,840 --> 00:01:08,679
Speaker 4: to be a part of trade negotiations with the United

27
00:01:08,720 --> 00:01:13,959
Speaker 4: States when asked about his discussions with China happening on Wednesday.

28
00:01:14,200 --> 00:01:19,160
Speaker 4: Trump's comments came during an impromptu pres gaggle after surveying

29
00:01:19,200 --> 00:01:22,240
Speaker 4: the north lawn of the White House for the best

30
00:01:22,280 --> 00:01:26,600
Speaker 4: spot to stake a massive flagpole for a massive American

31
00:01:26,720 --> 00:01:30,120
Speaker 4: flag that the President says he's going to pay for himself.

32
00:01:30,319 --> 00:01:34,120
Speaker 4: That's another exciting win, putting America first. Now, the President

33
00:01:34,200 --> 00:01:37,160
Speaker 4: was asked about what's happening with China and the trade deal,

34
00:01:37,400 --> 00:01:40,360
Speaker 4: and here's the President in his own words, thior.

35
00:01:40,120 --> 00:01:42,040
Speaker 2: I five is a president on China. Are you thinking

36
00:01:42,040 --> 00:01:44,360
Speaker 2: about are you thinking about lowering their tariff's fair?

37
00:01:44,400 --> 00:01:45,959
Speaker 1: Deal with China? It's going to be fair.

38
00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:47,280
Speaker 2: Are you talking to them actively?

39
00:01:47,440 --> 00:01:47,720
Speaker 4: Now?

40
00:01:48,240 --> 00:01:51,640
Speaker 1: Actively, everything's active. Everybody wants to be a part of.

41
00:01:51,560 --> 00:01:52,200
Speaker 5: What we're doing.

42
00:01:53,120 --> 00:01:55,440
Speaker 1: They know that they can't get away with it any longer,

43
00:01:55,480 --> 00:01:57,960
Speaker 1: but they're still going to do fine. And then we're

44
00:01:57,960 --> 00:02:00,280
Speaker 1: going to have a country that you can be pressed.

45
00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:02,480
Speaker 2: Out of, not a laughing stock all over the world for.

46
00:02:02,720 --> 00:02:06,920
Speaker 1: Many years, you know, and nineteen thirteen they traded to

47
00:02:07,280 --> 00:02:09,560
Speaker 1: the income tax system. We used to be old tariff

48
00:02:10,240 --> 00:02:12,680
Speaker 1: and we had no income tax, so we had the

49
00:02:12,680 --> 00:02:19,120
Speaker 1: wealthiest country proportionately. From about eighteen seventy to nineteen thirteen

50
00:02:19,120 --> 00:02:21,839
Speaker 1: it was old tariffs, and we did We had more

51
00:02:21,880 --> 00:02:24,800
Speaker 1: money than anybody. They had committees how to spend the money.

52
00:02:24,800 --> 00:02:26,959
Speaker 1: They had so much money, that did other stuff. Then

53
00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:30,680
Speaker 1: some three in person said, let's go income tax.

54
00:02:30,760 --> 00:02:32,040
Speaker 4: Let's let the people pay.

55
00:02:32,320 --> 00:02:35,480
Speaker 1: We're going to be able to substantially lower taxes when

56
00:02:35,520 --> 00:02:36,240
Speaker 1: this is finished.

57
00:02:36,520 --> 00:02:40,480
Speaker 4: We're going to be substantially able to lower taxes when

58
00:02:40,600 --> 00:02:43,840
Speaker 4: this is finished. The present making it very clear that

59
00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:47,880
Speaker 4: tariffs are not just about protecting America, especially on the

60
00:02:47,919 --> 00:02:51,480
Speaker 4: issue of national security, but also that he wants to

61
00:02:51,520 --> 00:02:54,640
Speaker 4: lower your taxes significantly. He said, We're going to have

62
00:02:54,680 --> 00:02:58,040
Speaker 4: a fair deal with China. It's going to be fair now.

63
00:02:58,080 --> 00:03:01,240
Speaker 4: Trump also told a reporter that the administration was quote

64
00:03:01,360 --> 00:03:06,240
Speaker 4: actively now talking directly with China. Everything is active. The

65
00:03:06,280 --> 00:03:10,480
Speaker 4: White House notably revealed on Thursday that the administration had

66
00:03:10,560 --> 00:03:14,920
Speaker 4: received eighteen formal trade offers and the trade team was

67
00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:18,959
Speaker 4: set to meet with thirty four different countries this week alone.

68
00:03:19,320 --> 00:03:23,239
Speaker 4: Speaking broadly about trade negotiations in the gaggle as well,

69
00:03:23,400 --> 00:03:26,440
Speaker 4: Trump said, there is a lot of action going on.

70
00:03:26,880 --> 00:03:29,960
Speaker 1: They all want to be involved with America, and we

71
00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:32,519
Speaker 1: have a lot of action going on. We have We're

72
00:03:32,520 --> 00:03:34,800
Speaker 1: making a lot of money this country. This country is

73
00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:37,160
Speaker 1: not going to be losing money on trade anymore. I

74
00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:40,320
Speaker 1: think we were losing two trillion dollars a year on trade.

75
00:03:40,680 --> 00:03:42,160
Speaker 2: Now we're going to be making money, a.

76
00:03:42,080 --> 00:03:45,160
Speaker 1: Lot of money, So that's very good. Every country wants

77
00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:48,360
Speaker 1: to partake, even countries that have ripped us off for

78
00:03:48,800 --> 00:03:52,000
Speaker 1: the years, China as an example, but it's not just China,

79
00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:55,880
Speaker 1: European Union, they ripped us off for many, many years,

80
00:03:56,520 --> 00:03:58,080
Speaker 1: and those days are over. We're going to make a

81
00:03:58,120 --> 00:04:00,320
Speaker 1: lot of money for our people, will be able to

82
00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:04,120
Speaker 1: lower taxes substantially, and we're going to be proud of ourselves.

83
00:04:04,160 --> 00:04:07,160
Speaker 1: They're not going to be a laughing stock. Got taken

84
00:04:07,160 --> 00:04:10,080
Speaker 1: advantage of it by virtually every country.

85
00:04:09,720 --> 00:04:13,120
Speaker 4: In the world. America got ripped off, and the president says,

86
00:04:13,320 --> 00:04:16,839
Speaker 4: I'm going to fix it now. Citing anonymous sources, The

87
00:04:16,880 --> 00:04:20,560
Speaker 4: Wall Street Journal is also reporting that the Trump administration

88
00:04:20,800 --> 00:04:24,400
Speaker 4: is weighing reducing tariffs on Chinese goods. The White House

89
00:04:24,440 --> 00:04:28,440
Speaker 4: Press Secretary Caroline Levitt shut down the prospect of a

90
00:04:28,560 --> 00:04:32,719
Speaker 4: unilateral reduction in an interview on Fox Here's what she said.

91
00:04:32,880 --> 00:04:35,599
Speaker 5: Let me be clear, there will be no unilateral reduction

92
00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:38,680
Speaker 5: in tariffs against China. The President has made it clear

93
00:04:38,839 --> 00:04:40,919
Speaker 5: China needs to make a deal with United States of

94
00:04:40,960 --> 00:04:44,799
Speaker 5: America and we are optimistic that will happen. And when

95
00:04:44,839 --> 00:04:48,279
Speaker 5: that continues, it'll be up to the President what the

96
00:04:48,360 --> 00:04:50,960
Speaker 5: tariff rate on China will be. But we certainly need

97
00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:54,520
Speaker 5: to see a reduction in tariffs and non minute monetary

98
00:04:54,520 --> 00:04:57,120
Speaker 5: tariff barriers from China as well, and we also need

99
00:04:57,160 --> 00:05:01,360
Speaker 5: to continue seeing these companies abroad we turn their manufacturing

100
00:05:01,400 --> 00:05:03,479
Speaker 5: to the United States of America so we can shore

101
00:05:03,600 --> 00:05:05,200
Speaker 5: up these critical supply chains.

102
00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:08,200
Speaker 4: Yet again, it looks like the media got it wrong

103
00:05:08,320 --> 00:05:10,480
Speaker 4: on this story, as the White House had to come

104
00:05:10,520 --> 00:05:14,279
Speaker 4: out and say no, there will be no unilateral reduction

105
00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:17,640
Speaker 4: in tariffs against China. What we certainly know is this,

106
00:05:18,160 --> 00:05:21,200
Speaker 4: we need a reduction in tariffs, the White House did say,

107
00:05:21,720 --> 00:05:25,679
Speaker 4: and a non monetary tariff barrier from China as well,

108
00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:26,840
Speaker 4: and we also need.

109
00:05:26,760 --> 00:05:28,600
Speaker 2: To continue seeing these companies abroad.

110
00:05:28,680 --> 00:05:32,320
Speaker 4: Return there manufacturing to the United States of America so

111
00:05:32,360 --> 00:05:35,560
Speaker 4: we can shore up these critical supply chain issues.

112
00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:38,120
Speaker 2: All of that coming from the White House. So the

113
00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:39,200
Speaker 2: big takeaway is.

114
00:05:39,240 --> 00:05:42,520
Speaker 4: Yes, we are moving forward with China, but many other

115
00:05:42,600 --> 00:05:45,599
Speaker 4: countries this week as well, and you can expect trade

116
00:05:45,640 --> 00:05:48,839
Speaker 4: agreements to be announced in the very near future.

117
00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:50,039
Speaker 3: Now story number two.

118
00:05:50,279 --> 00:05:52,520
Speaker 4: As many of you know, this show is all about

119
00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:55,040
Speaker 4: giving the news before it happens coming out of the

120
00:05:55,080 --> 00:05:57,800
Speaker 4: White House, the big stories of the day. We'll celebrating

121
00:05:57,800 --> 00:06:01,400
Speaker 4: the first one hundred days of the Trump administration. I

122
00:06:01,480 --> 00:06:03,440
Speaker 4: was asked to come to the White House to sit

123
00:06:03,520 --> 00:06:07,040
Speaker 4: down with many members in the administration. One of those

124
00:06:07,160 --> 00:06:10,560
Speaker 4: was Tricia McLoughlin. She is the Assistant Secretary of the

125
00:06:10,600 --> 00:06:13,720
Speaker 4: Department of Homeland Security, and we set down for an

126
00:06:13,760 --> 00:06:16,680
Speaker 4: interview and the big issue we talked about was obviously

127
00:06:16,720 --> 00:06:20,279
Speaker 4: what's happening at the border. Here is that conversation that

128
00:06:20,320 --> 00:06:22,480
Speaker 4: we did at the White House in the Treaty Room.

129
00:06:22,800 --> 00:06:24,360
Speaker 2: One of the big issues.

130
00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:25,960
Speaker 4: That so many Americans care about right now is the

131
00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:29,479
Speaker 4: issue of what's happening at the southern border. We have

132
00:06:29,560 --> 00:06:31,520
Speaker 4: done a lot to secure the border in our President

133
00:06:31,600 --> 00:06:34,320
Speaker 4: Trump and in the first hundred days. But then there's

134
00:06:34,360 --> 00:06:36,640
Speaker 4: the issue of all the illegal immigrants that are in

135
00:06:36,720 --> 00:06:39,719
Speaker 4: this country and how we're going to deport them, especially

136
00:06:39,800 --> 00:06:42,880
Speaker 4: those that are in immistrating gang members and Trey de

137
00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:46,279
Speaker 4: la Laga gangs. This is still a major issue for

138
00:06:46,360 --> 00:06:48,599
Speaker 4: safety for so many Americans. So joining me now to

139
00:06:48,640 --> 00:06:51,080
Speaker 4: talk about this is Trician mclofflin. She is the Assistant

140
00:06:51,120 --> 00:06:54,479
Speaker 4: Secretary Department of Homeland Security. Tricia, it's a pleasure to

141
00:06:54,520 --> 00:06:57,440
Speaker 4: have you here and to talk about this. Let's go

142
00:06:57,480 --> 00:07:00,600
Speaker 4: to the headlines and start there. You've got this story

143
00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:03,720
Speaker 4: of a MS thirteen gang member who even his own

144
00:07:03,800 --> 00:07:06,599
Speaker 4: wife was making sure that his knuckles were that had

145
00:07:06,640 --> 00:07:10,160
Speaker 4: the tattoo of the MS thirteen gang symbol was not

146
00:07:10,360 --> 00:07:13,320
Speaker 4: on social media in some of her postings. Then the

147
00:07:13,560 --> 00:07:16,240
Speaker 4: media tried to say that he was not a gang member,

148
00:07:16,400 --> 00:07:18,360
Speaker 4: that this was terrible, that we kicked him out of

149
00:07:18,400 --> 00:07:20,320
Speaker 4: this country, and that we send him out Salvador and

150
00:07:20,320 --> 00:07:22,480
Speaker 4: they're domating him back. And now Democrats have gone all

151
00:07:22,520 --> 00:07:26,000
Speaker 4: in on this, like there's delegations using taxpayer dollars to

152
00:07:26,120 --> 00:07:28,400
Speaker 4: go and meet with this person, not meet with family

153
00:07:28,400 --> 00:07:31,680
Speaker 4: members and victims in this country, those that have been terrorized,

154
00:07:31,680 --> 00:07:33,720
Speaker 4: those have been killed, those have been raped and murdered

155
00:07:33,800 --> 00:07:37,360
Speaker 4: by this gang that is a terrorist organization, and now we're.

156
00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:38,520
Speaker 2: Also seeing lawfare in the courts.

157
00:07:38,560 --> 00:07:40,720
Speaker 4: Try to say no, no, no, President Trump, you can't keep

158
00:07:40,720 --> 00:07:41,880
Speaker 4: American safe as well.

159
00:07:42,200 --> 00:07:44,960
Speaker 6: Exactly Ben, And there really is a concerted effort by

160
00:07:44,960 --> 00:07:48,520
Speaker 6: the media and Democrats to whitewash this story, whitewash who

161
00:07:48,560 --> 00:07:52,040
Speaker 6: this guy is, that he's some innocent marilynd father, when

162
00:07:52,080 --> 00:07:54,640
Speaker 6: he's anything but. First and foremost, he is in the

163
00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:58,360
Speaker 6: country illegally. He had final deportation orders. But let's go

164
00:07:58,360 --> 00:08:00,600
Speaker 6: through the timeline a little bit to justcribe who this

165
00:08:00,640 --> 00:08:04,440
Speaker 6: guy Abrego Garcia actually is. When he was initially arrested

166
00:08:04,440 --> 00:08:07,680
Speaker 6: in twenty nineteen, he was found among other MS thirteen

167
00:08:07,720 --> 00:08:11,559
Speaker 6: gang members, decked out in MS thirteen year having different

168
00:08:11,680 --> 00:08:14,520
Speaker 6: MS thirteen symbols on it. He was found with drugs

169
00:08:14,560 --> 00:08:19,160
Speaker 6: and rolls of money as well. Two separate immigration judges

170
00:08:19,520 --> 00:08:22,560
Speaker 6: found that he was an MS thirteen gang member, as

171
00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:25,200
Speaker 6: well as the Prince George's County gang unit. Keep in mind,

172
00:08:25,240 --> 00:08:28,400
Speaker 6: Prince George County, Maryland isn't exactly some red haven, it

173
00:08:28,480 --> 00:08:32,640
Speaker 6: is very blue. They found that he is in MS

174
00:08:32,679 --> 00:08:36,600
Speaker 6: thirteen as well, flash forwarded to twenty twenty one. His wife,

175
00:08:36,679 --> 00:08:38,720
Speaker 6: his own wife, who like you said, was covering up

176
00:08:38,720 --> 00:08:43,360
Speaker 6: his knuckles, was filed a domestic restraining order against him

177
00:08:43,400 --> 00:08:47,000
Speaker 6: for slapping her, for ripping off her shirt, for pinching

178
00:08:47,040 --> 00:08:49,600
Speaker 6: and scratching her sheet, and her own written testimony said

179
00:08:49,600 --> 00:08:52,000
Speaker 6: how she feared for her children and tried to take

180
00:08:52,040 --> 00:08:54,960
Speaker 6: them away from him. And then then if I am

181
00:08:55,000 --> 00:08:58,080
Speaker 6: ay one more time is in twenty twenty two, he

182
00:08:58,160 --> 00:09:01,319
Speaker 6: was pulled over by the Tennessee st Highway Patrol. Yeah,

183
00:09:01,400 --> 00:09:06,479
Speaker 6: during which he was allegedly taking eight individuals from Texas

184
00:09:06,559 --> 00:09:09,160
Speaker 6: to Maryland on a three day journey. On a three

185
00:09:09,200 --> 00:09:11,280
Speaker 6: day journey with eight people, and there was not a

186
00:09:11,320 --> 00:09:15,440
Speaker 6: single piece of luggage in that vehicle that reeks of

187
00:09:15,520 --> 00:09:18,880
Speaker 6: human trafficking. That is textbook, And so we're left to

188
00:09:18,920 --> 00:09:20,960
Speaker 6: believe that, oh, no, this is an innocent guy.

189
00:09:21,200 --> 00:09:23,199
Speaker 4: And by the way, that let's be queer the Biden administration,

190
00:09:23,280 --> 00:09:25,080
Speaker 4: the FBI said no, no, no, just let him go.

191
00:09:25,080 --> 00:09:26,319
Speaker 2: Don't worry about that.

192
00:09:26,440 --> 00:09:28,560
Speaker 6: There's certainly more to the story, and I'd love to

193
00:09:28,559 --> 00:09:30,760
Speaker 6: hear more from the FBI and what went down there.

194
00:09:31,160 --> 00:09:33,720
Speaker 4: So you look at this guy, and he's over there,

195
00:09:33,720 --> 00:09:37,000
Speaker 4: and now the media has become like he's some sort

196
00:09:37,040 --> 00:09:40,400
Speaker 4: of folk hero or hero for them. The Democratic Party

197
00:09:40,440 --> 00:09:42,720
Speaker 4: is spending taxpayer hours to go down there and meet

198
00:09:42,720 --> 00:09:45,240
Speaker 4: with him like he's a celebrity. You have centers that

199
00:09:45,280 --> 00:09:47,400
Speaker 4: are holding his hand like he's been persecuted by the

200
00:09:47,480 --> 00:09:50,000
Speaker 4: United States of America and demands to bring him back,

201
00:09:50,040 --> 00:09:52,040
Speaker 4: what so he can deport him to another country as

202
00:09:52,080 --> 00:09:54,240
Speaker 4: soon as he gets here, because that's exactly what could happen.

203
00:09:54,559 --> 00:09:57,040
Speaker 6: It's remarkable to me that this is the hill that

204
00:09:57,080 --> 00:09:59,560
Speaker 6: the Democrats and media are willing to die on that

205
00:09:59,679 --> 00:10:02,760
Speaker 6: they have. I have one small shred of any credibility left,

206
00:10:02,800 --> 00:10:04,520
Speaker 6: and this is what they're going to burn it on.

207
00:10:04,880 --> 00:10:07,880
Speaker 6: Is this MS thirteen gang member. Americans should remember who

208
00:10:08,040 --> 00:10:12,599
Speaker 6: MS thirteen is. It is a vicious gang that sex traffics,

209
00:10:12,800 --> 00:10:17,280
Speaker 6: that human traffics, that mames, rapes, and kills Americans for sport.

210
00:10:17,480 --> 00:10:19,520
Speaker 6: These are people who should not be in our country

211
00:10:19,559 --> 00:10:22,480
Speaker 6: and should be hunted down and locked up immediately.

212
00:10:22,840 --> 00:10:24,600
Speaker 4: You just look at some of the things that apparently

213
00:10:24,840 --> 00:10:28,400
Speaker 4: were found on his devices, and that's one of the

214
00:10:28,400 --> 00:10:30,280
Speaker 4: things that I found interesting on the reporting, is you

215
00:10:30,320 --> 00:10:32,679
Speaker 4: look at what they share MS thirteen GAG members.

216
00:10:32,720 --> 00:10:36,560
Speaker 2: They share the pictures of beheadings, the butchering of humans.

217
00:10:36,600 --> 00:10:38,360
Speaker 4: And then yet they're trying to say, oh, this guy's

218
00:10:38,400 --> 00:10:40,959
Speaker 4: a victim who broke into America.

219
00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:43,120
Speaker 6: Anything but and that is I mean, if you look

220
00:10:43,120 --> 00:10:45,840
Speaker 6: at the crime on American streets and crimes by these

221
00:10:46,240 --> 00:10:49,000
Speaker 6: illegal immigrant gangs, so much of the time they're done

222
00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:52,320
Speaker 6: by MS thirteen, they're done by Trendy Aragua, they're done

223
00:10:52,320 --> 00:10:55,000
Speaker 6: by these other vicious gangs. They shouldn't have been here

224
00:10:55,040 --> 00:10:57,200
Speaker 6: in the first place because they're in the country illegally.

225
00:10:57,520 --> 00:11:01,120
Speaker 6: Much less the fact that with IMPUNE they've been allowed

226
00:11:01,280 --> 00:11:04,280
Speaker 6: to rain terwer on American streets for the last four years.

227
00:11:04,520 --> 00:11:07,080
Speaker 4: Let's talk about the court system now, and we've seen

228
00:11:07,120 --> 00:11:10,000
Speaker 4: these activist judges who are stepping in and using law

229
00:11:10,040 --> 00:11:13,079
Speaker 4: fair to say, hey, the president can't do this anymore.

230
00:11:13,120 --> 00:11:15,400
Speaker 4: You can't just ship people off to the other countries.

231
00:11:15,640 --> 00:11:18,160
Speaker 4: We're going to stop you every step of the way.

232
00:11:18,480 --> 00:11:21,600
Speaker 4: What is the administration's response to that. How long is

233
00:11:21,600 --> 00:11:22,920
Speaker 4: it going to take for this to play out?

234
00:11:23,280 --> 00:11:27,280
Speaker 6: I think ultimately President Trump, Secretary Norman, this entire administration

235
00:11:27,400 --> 00:11:31,439
Speaker 6: are going to be victorious on this issue on November fifth,

236
00:11:31,440 --> 00:11:34,640
Speaker 6: twenty twenty four. There is a clear mandate from the

237
00:11:34,640 --> 00:11:37,880
Speaker 6: American people that we need to get criminal, illegal aliens

238
00:11:38,160 --> 00:11:40,760
Speaker 6: out of this country. There was likely ten to twenty

239
00:11:41,080 --> 00:11:44,080
Speaker 6: million illegal aliens who came into this country under Joe Biden.

240
00:11:44,360 --> 00:11:47,520
Speaker 6: The American people are done with it. Look, whether Garcia

241
00:11:47,640 --> 00:11:50,679
Speaker 6: is in an American detention facility or an La Salvador,

242
00:11:50,920 --> 00:11:53,040
Speaker 6: what matters really is that he's locked up. But I

243
00:11:53,080 --> 00:11:57,080
Speaker 6: do think ultimately this will be sorted out. We will

244
00:11:57,160 --> 00:11:59,400
Speaker 6: ensure that these individuals have due process. That was what

245
00:12:00,000 --> 00:12:02,360
Speaker 6: the Supreme Court was most concerned about was the amount

246
00:12:02,400 --> 00:12:05,240
Speaker 6: of time these individuals were given notice. But we're going

247
00:12:05,280 --> 00:12:07,920
Speaker 6: to be very clear that despite the fact that these

248
00:12:07,960 --> 00:12:11,560
Speaker 6: are terrorists and these are criminal gang members, this is

249
00:12:11,559 --> 00:12:15,120
Speaker 6: still the United States of American. We guarantee due process

250
00:12:15,200 --> 00:12:16,280
Speaker 6: under the US Constitution.

251
00:12:16,920 --> 00:12:19,720
Speaker 4: So when you look forward after, we're at the hundred

252
00:12:19,760 --> 00:12:22,160
Speaker 4: day mark in essence, and this is pretty awesome because

253
00:12:22,200 --> 00:12:24,360
Speaker 4: there's a lot that's been done. The border is now

254
00:12:24,360 --> 00:12:27,120
Speaker 4: more secure that's been in decades, the number of people

255
00:12:27,120 --> 00:12:29,360
Speaker 4: are coming across. I think the message the present sent

256
00:12:29,520 --> 00:12:31,320
Speaker 4: loud and clear was you come here now.

257
00:12:31,360 --> 00:12:31,960
Speaker 2: It's game on.

258
00:12:32,720 --> 00:12:35,760
Speaker 4: We're saying that the number of crossings have dropped significantly,

259
00:12:36,200 --> 00:12:39,320
Speaker 4: but there's the big question of Okay, there's a lot

260
00:12:39,320 --> 00:12:41,440
Speaker 4: of people that got in under the Biden years. There's

261
00:12:41,559 --> 00:12:44,640
Speaker 4: literally millions. How are we going to unwind all of

262
00:12:44,679 --> 00:12:46,079
Speaker 4: that in an orderly fashion?

263
00:12:46,320 --> 00:12:48,319
Speaker 6: Yeah, I think that we're working to do just that.

264
00:12:48,360 --> 00:12:51,400
Speaker 6: Secretary Nome was handed a tough task and she's taking

265
00:12:51,400 --> 00:12:54,880
Speaker 6: it on miraculously. Look at the border, as you just mentioned,

266
00:12:54,880 --> 00:12:58,240
Speaker 6: we virtually have operational control of the border. Crossings are

267
00:12:58,280 --> 00:13:01,480
Speaker 6: down ninety five percent. That is, i all accounts, the

268
00:13:01,520 --> 00:13:04,880
Speaker 6: most secure border in American history. That's in less than

269
00:13:04,960 --> 00:13:08,320
Speaker 6: ninety days. It's pretty remarkable. But we also have to

270
00:13:08,360 --> 00:13:12,400
Speaker 6: look at our legal immigration system as well. The Biden

271
00:13:12,440 --> 00:13:16,520
Speaker 6: administration majorcas use parole programs, temporary protected status, and these

272
00:13:16,559 --> 00:13:21,480
Speaker 6: other programs to allow illegal immigrants to come into this

273
00:13:21,720 --> 00:13:24,920
Speaker 6: country unvetted. We don't know really who's in this country,

274
00:13:24,920 --> 00:13:26,839
Speaker 6: so we have to really take a pause and go

275
00:13:26,920 --> 00:13:29,960
Speaker 6: through who did we let in for the last four years.

276
00:13:30,440 --> 00:13:33,880
Speaker 6: So I think it's going to take also a unleashed ice.

277
00:13:34,200 --> 00:13:36,880
Speaker 6: Secretary name has been remarkable in that, but the fact is,

278
00:13:37,040 --> 00:13:40,000
Speaker 6: for the last four years Biden did not allow these

279
00:13:40,040 --> 00:13:43,360
Speaker 6: ICE agents to actually do their jobs. They were disincentivized

280
00:13:43,360 --> 00:13:45,720
Speaker 6: for making any of these arrests, whether it be just

281
00:13:46,480 --> 00:13:50,439
Speaker 6: illegal aliens to criminal vicious aliens like these MS thirteen members.

282
00:13:50,760 --> 00:13:54,000
Speaker 6: As we've mentioned before. So we have a tall task

283
00:13:54,280 --> 00:13:56,120
Speaker 6: and we've got to get these arrests numbers up. But

284
00:13:56,120 --> 00:13:58,440
Speaker 6: that's part of the reason why Secretary Nome is on

285
00:13:58,520 --> 00:14:02,880
Speaker 6: the ground a weekly basis with our enforcement officers from

286
00:14:03,679 --> 00:14:07,600
Speaker 6: Border and Protection Patrol and from ICE to make sure

287
00:14:07,640 --> 00:14:09,560
Speaker 6: that we're getting them the resources they need to be

288
00:14:09,600 --> 00:14:11,880
Speaker 6: successful to get these arrest numbers up and to make

289
00:14:11,920 --> 00:14:12,920
Speaker 6: sure they're safe on the job.

290
00:14:13,040 --> 00:14:17,160
Speaker 4: Let's talk about detention detainers that the ICE needs in

291
00:14:17,200 --> 00:14:19,480
Speaker 4: the court systems. They need these courts to alert them

292
00:14:19,480 --> 00:14:21,640
Speaker 4: when they have somebody in custody that clearly needs to

293
00:14:21,680 --> 00:14:24,640
Speaker 4: be deported. We still are seeing activists that are not

294
00:14:24,720 --> 00:14:27,120
Speaker 4: allowing for that to happen. How big of an issue

295
00:14:27,200 --> 00:14:28,720
Speaker 4: is that going to be moving forward? And is there

296
00:14:28,720 --> 00:14:30,320
Speaker 4: more than the White House can do to stop that

297
00:14:30,360 --> 00:14:31,000
Speaker 4: from being a thing.

298
00:14:31,320 --> 00:14:33,720
Speaker 6: Yeah, I think the Department of Justice under Attorney General

299
00:14:33,840 --> 00:14:37,560
Speaker 6: Pam Bondi is definitely looking at options with these sanctuary cities.

300
00:14:37,960 --> 00:14:40,800
Speaker 6: Like you mentioned, if ICE isn't able to lodge these

301
00:14:40,840 --> 00:14:43,960
Speaker 6: detainers against these criminal aliens, that they could be released

302
00:14:44,120 --> 00:14:47,320
Speaker 6: into American communities and go out and commit the same act. Actually,

303
00:14:47,360 --> 00:14:50,400
Speaker 6: a couple of weeks ago, Secretary Nome was in New

304
00:14:50,480 --> 00:14:53,760
Speaker 6: York City and a lot of listeners will probably remember

305
00:14:53,800 --> 00:14:57,880
Speaker 6: this really heinous crime at Coney Island, the subway station

306
00:14:57,960 --> 00:15:00,920
Speaker 6: there where this illegal immigrant lit this woman on fire

307
00:15:00,960 --> 00:15:04,760
Speaker 6: and killed her. It was incredibly depraved. Ice tried to

308
00:15:04,800 --> 00:15:07,040
Speaker 6: lodge a detainer, and we are not sure if that's

309
00:15:07,080 --> 00:15:09,200
Speaker 6: going to be honored. So we don't know if and

310
00:15:09,240 --> 00:15:10,720
Speaker 6: when this guy will get out. But if he's not,

311
00:15:10,800 --> 00:15:13,320
Speaker 6: he could be released back into New York even though

312
00:15:13,320 --> 00:15:15,720
Speaker 6: he's in this country illegally. That's the kind of cases

313
00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:18,720
Speaker 6: we have to end. And that's why, I mean, case

314
00:15:18,720 --> 00:15:21,720
Speaker 6: in point, why sanctuary cities are so so dangerous.

315
00:15:22,400 --> 00:15:25,280
Speaker 4: Final question for you on moving forward the next one

316
00:15:25,320 --> 00:15:27,520
Speaker 4: hundred days, what do you expect the headlines to be

317
00:15:28,240 --> 00:15:32,000
Speaker 4: from this administration on this issue? Obviously, the border secure,

318
00:15:32,080 --> 00:15:34,840
Speaker 4: we can check that box. We're doing more, But where

319
00:15:34,880 --> 00:15:36,800
Speaker 4: is this going to go and what can the American

320
00:15:36,840 --> 00:15:37,600
Speaker 4: people expect?

321
00:15:37,680 --> 00:15:39,800
Speaker 6: I think you're going to see ramped up deportation numbers.

322
00:15:39,840 --> 00:15:42,840
Speaker 6: I think you're going to see more agreements with third

323
00:15:42,880 --> 00:15:45,600
Speaker 6: party countries. Whether you'll see that with Al Salvador, that

324
00:15:45,600 --> 00:15:48,360
Speaker 6: they're taking some of our most vicious, worse, the worst

325
00:15:48,360 --> 00:15:50,360
Speaker 6: criminal aliens. I think you're going to see more of

326
00:15:50,400 --> 00:15:52,520
Speaker 6: that from other countries to make sure that these guys

327
00:15:52,680 --> 00:15:55,240
Speaker 6: are off of Americans oil and take and take part

328
00:15:55,280 --> 00:15:59,400
Speaker 6: in getting their folks folks back. I also think we're

329
00:15:59,400 --> 00:16:00,960
Speaker 6: going to see more you know, we're going to see

330
00:16:00,960 --> 00:16:02,760
Speaker 6: more action with these the courts and some of these

331
00:16:02,800 --> 00:16:04,880
Speaker 6: activist judges. But we're not gonna let it stop us.

332
00:16:05,040 --> 00:16:08,120
Speaker 6: We have deportation flights going almost every single day, and

333
00:16:08,960 --> 00:16:11,480
Speaker 6: alien a Numies Act is only one tool in our arsenal.

334
00:16:11,560 --> 00:16:13,320
Speaker 6: We have a lot of authorities to get these people

335
00:16:13,360 --> 00:16:14,080
Speaker 6: out of the country.
