You know, Yes, 13 00:00:41,360 --> 00:00:44,479 Speaker 3: today we talked about agit prop. We talked about that 14 00:00:44,520 --> 00:00:47,080 Speaker 3: a lot this week. We got that from Joel Cotkin, 15 00:00:47,200 --> 00:00:49,120 Speaker 3: the author who chronicles a lot that's gone on in 16 00:00:49,159 --> 00:00:53,320 Speaker 3: California past and present. Agit Prop is an agitation propaganda. 17 00:00:53,360 --> 00:00:55,400 Speaker 3: It gets you wired up, and it comes from the 18 00:00:55,400 --> 00:00:58,400 Speaker 3: progressive left and the far right. And well, we'll dig 19 00:00:58,400 --> 00:01:01,160 Speaker 3: into this story. The New York Post and the Daily Mail. 20 00:01:01,200 --> 00:01:03,960 Speaker 3: I'm not sure one didn't copy the other apparently picked 21 00:01:04,040 --> 00:01:07,840 Speaker 3: up on some videos on TikTok by somebody who called 22 00:01:07,840 --> 00:01:12,200 Speaker 3: themselves Nostalgic Angelino, showing off more than a dozen Beverly 23 00:01:12,280 --> 00:01:15,959 Speaker 3: Hills retailers and restaurants completely shuttered and not replaced by 24 00:01:15,959 --> 00:01:19,240 Speaker 3: new businesses. So the Post headlined a Beverly Hills is 25 00:01:19,240 --> 00:01:23,199 Speaker 3: becoming a ghost town as high end retail stores exit 26 00:01:23,400 --> 00:01:27,080 Speaker 3: the once luxurious city near La Wow. Well, of course 27 00:01:27,360 --> 00:01:30,319 Speaker 3: fashion grab robberies are getting the headline in this story. 28 00:01:31,240 --> 00:01:34,360 Speaker 1: Julian Gold, the mayor of Beverly Hills, is coming on 29 00:01:34,440 --> 00:01:36,520 Speaker 1: with us now and he's going to tell us what's 30 00:01:36,680 --> 00:01:40,920 Speaker 1: true and what isn't true about this TikTok story running 31 00:01:40,959 --> 00:01:44,320 Speaker 1: through the New York Post and the Daily Mail. There's 32 00:01:44,319 --> 00:01:46,600 Speaker 1: a lot of things that can go wrong along that circuit. 33 00:01:47,319 --> 00:01:50,800 Speaker 2: Julian, welcome, gentlemen. 34 00:01:50,480 --> 00:01:53,880 Speaker 4: Thank you for having me. I really appreciate it pleasure 35 00:01:53,880 --> 00:01:55,800 Speaker 4: to be able to be on your program and set 36 00:01:55,800 --> 00:01:56,559 Speaker 4: the record straight. 37 00:01:57,000 --> 00:01:59,200 Speaker 3: Okay, we want to hear from you because it says 38 00:01:59,200 --> 00:02:02,680 Speaker 3: here big names stores that are closing our luxury staples 39 00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:04,720 Speaker 3: like Barney's New York and Escata. 40 00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:07,200 Speaker 2: And Chanelle is listed too. 41 00:02:07,400 --> 00:02:12,960 Speaker 4: Right, So first, can I suggest for you and your 42 00:02:13,080 --> 00:02:18,120 Speaker 4: viewers that you actually look at the source, the TikTok itself. 43 00:02:18,440 --> 00:02:21,400 Speaker 4: Not that I'm looking to give this guy views, but 44 00:02:21,600 --> 00:02:25,200 Speaker 4: if you take a look. People on his chat say 45 00:02:25,240 --> 00:02:28,920 Speaker 4: to him, this is not Beverly Hills, and his response 46 00:02:29,120 --> 00:02:33,400 Speaker 4: is right, and who cares if it's West Hollywood Beverly Hills, 47 00:02:33,400 --> 00:02:37,520 Speaker 4: Los Angeles. The locals don't care, and the tourists don't 48 00:02:37,560 --> 00:02:38,320 Speaker 4: know the difference. 49 00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:43,560 Speaker 3: Really well, that was his response, because is that true? 50 00:02:43,600 --> 00:02:48,120 Speaker 3: These were not videos of Beverly Hill stores, No, they weren't. 51 00:02:48,520 --> 00:02:53,480 Speaker 4: The entire TikTok thing was taken on a boulevard that 52 00:02:54,120 --> 00:02:58,400 Speaker 4: is close to Beverly Hills, but none of it's in 53 00:02:58,440 --> 00:03:02,120 Speaker 4: Beverly Hills. That's what started this, the TikTok. The post 54 00:03:02,160 --> 00:03:05,280 Speaker 4: added a couple of other buildings, but the TikTok that 55 00:03:05,400 --> 00:03:09,799 Speaker 4: started this was not in Beverly Hills, and he knew it. Well. 56 00:03:09,880 --> 00:03:13,680 Speaker 3: No, this this chanel that John mentions on North Robertson, 57 00:03:13,720 --> 00:03:14,720 Speaker 3: is that in Beverly Hills. 58 00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:18,080 Speaker 2: Nope, okay, all right. 59 00:03:18,760 --> 00:03:23,160 Speaker 4: No it's not. And actually our new chanel, which opened 60 00:03:23,200 --> 00:03:27,040 Speaker 4: about six weeks ago, it is extraordinarily beautiful. It's on 61 00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:30,359 Speaker 4: Rodeo Drive. I encourage everybody to come take a look, 62 00:03:30,400 --> 00:03:30,880 Speaker 4: it's amazing. 63 00:03:32,919 --> 00:03:34,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, I haven't been to Beverly Hills in months, but 64 00:03:34,960 --> 00:03:36,640 Speaker 3: the last time I was there, I didn't notice anything 65 00:03:36,640 --> 00:03:38,480 Speaker 3: out of the ordinary, so I was surprised to see 66 00:03:38,520 --> 00:03:42,160 Speaker 3: this story. But you're saying it's uh. And this is 67 00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:45,520 Speaker 3: the problem, Mayor Gold, is that a lot of media 68 00:03:45,960 --> 00:03:49,040 Speaker 3: tend to conflate La with Beverly Hills because Beverly Hills 69 00:03:49,080 --> 00:03:52,600 Speaker 3: borders of the often awful streets of Los Angeles. 70 00:03:52,640 --> 00:03:56,840 Speaker 1: They did that with this that homeless camp that was 71 00:03:56,880 --> 00:04:00,360 Speaker 1: on Los Sienaga, the one that Avenue Center well living 72 00:04:00,440 --> 00:04:04,120 Speaker 1: on the sofa. They ran all the headlines there's a 73 00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:06,800 Speaker 1: Beverly Hills homeless camp that nobody would do anything about. 74 00:04:07,840 --> 00:04:11,120 Speaker 4: All right, and I appreciate you. You're telling your audience 75 00:04:11,200 --> 00:04:14,320 Speaker 4: the difference. We are a different city. We're separately incorporated 76 00:04:14,360 --> 00:04:17,560 Speaker 4: city were we share Bartered Orders. Has no doubt that 77 00:04:17,560 --> 00:04:20,680 Speaker 4: that is true. But the problems that are being pointed 78 00:04:20,720 --> 00:04:24,320 Speaker 4: out are not the problems that happen in Beverly Hills, 79 00:04:24,800 --> 00:04:27,400 Speaker 4: and so it's hard for us. I mean that we 80 00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:29,160 Speaker 4: land up. We spent most of the last three or 81 00:04:29,160 --> 00:04:32,240 Speaker 4: four days just trying to clear the record and say, 82 00:04:32,520 --> 00:04:36,360 Speaker 4: you know, ladies and gentlemen, it is not true. You know, 83 00:04:36,839 --> 00:04:40,839 Speaker 4: it will defend about ourselves what is true. But you know, 84 00:04:40,880 --> 00:04:42,640 Speaker 4: when it's not true, it's just a waste of time. 85 00:04:43,200 --> 00:04:44,640 Speaker 2: Well, so are you saying that? Really? 86 00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:48,560 Speaker 3: All the videos of all the stores on this TikTok account, 87 00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:50,440 Speaker 3: well none of them were Beverly Hills. 88 00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:54,520 Speaker 4: The TikTok account, none of them are Beverly Hills. Is 89 00:04:54,520 --> 00:04:59,400 Speaker 4: that post? The post picked up on some other closed buildings, 90 00:04:59,440 --> 00:05:04,200 Speaker 4: but even there the truth is more complicated. So, for instance, 91 00:05:04,240 --> 00:05:07,600 Speaker 4: they picked up on Barney's, and it's true that Barney's 92 00:05:07,680 --> 00:05:10,560 Speaker 4: is vacant, but what they didn't tell you was that 93 00:05:10,720 --> 00:05:15,520 Speaker 4: Sacks Fifth Avenue MutS in Bay as an enormous remodeling 94 00:05:15,560 --> 00:05:18,440 Speaker 4: project that they're in front of our planning commission actually, 95 00:05:19,040 --> 00:05:22,719 Speaker 4: and their short term plan is to move Sacks into 96 00:05:22,760 --> 00:05:26,479 Speaker 4: the Barney's building in order to keep Sacks operational while 97 00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:30,040 Speaker 4: they do the renovations in the historic building that is 98 00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:33,720 Speaker 4: currently Sacked. So yeah, in this period of time, Barneys 99 00:05:33,800 --> 00:05:36,839 Speaker 4: is empty, but it's not like it's you know, without 100 00:05:36,839 --> 00:05:41,840 Speaker 4: a purpose and vacant. So too for other things, they 101 00:05:41,960 --> 00:05:45,440 Speaker 4: mentioned a Barnes and Noble, and truthfully, I don't know 102 00:05:45,520 --> 00:05:49,280 Speaker 4: that we've had a Barnes and Noble in town recent terms. 103 00:05:49,839 --> 00:05:52,960 Speaker 1: No, I don't remember ever seeing a Barnes and Noble. 104 00:05:55,760 --> 00:05:59,359 Speaker 1: We go through there frequently, and I couldn't think of 105 00:05:59,360 --> 00:05:59,960 Speaker 1: where that would be. 106 00:06:01,880 --> 00:06:07,680 Speaker 4: That'd be two of us and I live there. Yeah, 107 00:06:07,760 --> 00:06:11,680 Speaker 4: and I mean and so too. We have some businesses 108 00:06:11,680 --> 00:06:13,640 Speaker 4: that leave, there's no doubt that's true. We've had some 109 00:06:13,720 --> 00:06:17,040 Speaker 4: businesses that have suffered because of COVID, that is true. 110 00:06:17,440 --> 00:06:21,039 Speaker 4: Most of those buildings have been released. You know, we're 111 00:06:21,080 --> 00:06:24,080 Speaker 4: subject to the same sort of corporate efforts. I think 112 00:06:24,080 --> 00:06:28,159 Speaker 4: they reference both Starbucks and Chapoltle, and you know we 113 00:06:28,240 --> 00:06:30,760 Speaker 4: have they continue to be in Beverly Hills, but not 114 00:06:30,960 --> 00:06:34,080 Speaker 4: always in all the same locations. But you know that's 115 00:06:34,320 --> 00:06:35,080 Speaker 4: true everywhere. 116 00:06:35,520 --> 00:06:39,080 Speaker 1: So what you have is is some some jackass on 117 00:06:39,240 --> 00:06:43,320 Speaker 1: TikTok who doesn't care if he's He just wants the views, right, 118 00:06:43,440 --> 00:06:46,520 Speaker 1: he just wants the views, and Beverly Hills going in 119 00:06:46,560 --> 00:06:49,599 Speaker 1: the toilet is a much bigger grab than LA going 120 00:06:49,640 --> 00:06:51,920 Speaker 1: in the toilet. And then you have some twelve dollars 121 00:06:51,920 --> 00:06:54,560 Speaker 1: an hour more on at the New York Post of 122 00:06:54,640 --> 00:06:58,840 Speaker 1: the Daily Mail, who gets paid by each item they 123 00:06:58,839 --> 00:07:03,359 Speaker 1: post it, picks it up and then you know, reworks it, 124 00:07:03,440 --> 00:07:06,920 Speaker 1: rewrites it, it adds even more in correct information. 125 00:07:08,839 --> 00:07:11,600 Speaker 4: Well, I thank you for those words. I cannot say them, 126 00:07:11,640 --> 00:07:17,800 Speaker 4: but I'm glad that you can. Yeah, And frankly, frankly, 127 00:07:18,040 --> 00:07:20,560 Speaker 4: I want to turn this around and make this a positive. 128 00:07:21,320 --> 00:07:23,560 Speaker 4: So what I'd really like to do is I'd like 129 00:07:23,640 --> 00:07:26,440 Speaker 4: to thank you. And it's given me the opportunity elsewhere 130 00:07:26,960 --> 00:07:30,200 Speaker 4: to say this to the people who are listening. Beverly 131 00:07:30,280 --> 00:07:33,840 Speaker 4: Hills is absolutely safe. It's a great place to be 132 00:07:34,000 --> 00:07:37,560 Speaker 4: these days. The stores are booming. We have lots of 133 00:07:37,640 --> 00:07:39,840 Speaker 4: new investment. We have a dozen new restaurants in the 134 00:07:39,920 --> 00:07:43,560 Speaker 4: last year, more coming and Beverly Hill it's almost fully 135 00:07:43,600 --> 00:07:47,320 Speaker 4: rented out. You know, there's the normal transitions of business 136 00:07:47,360 --> 00:07:50,600 Speaker 4: that you would see in any city, but largely Beverly 137 00:07:50,680 --> 00:07:53,040 Speaker 4: Hills is doing really, really well. Now. 138 00:07:53,200 --> 00:07:55,160 Speaker 2: The second part of it, ahead. 139 00:07:55,080 --> 00:07:56,960 Speaker 4: Let me just senis please, And the second part of 140 00:07:57,000 --> 00:08:00,440 Speaker 4: it being that I get the PSA here is we 141 00:08:00,520 --> 00:08:04,040 Speaker 4: have spent a lot of money making Beverly Hills secure. 142 00:08:04,880 --> 00:08:09,239 Speaker 4: We've created an entire policing program. We've we're full staffed 143 00:08:09,240 --> 00:08:11,840 Speaker 4: in police. We have more police in most places. We 144 00:08:11,880 --> 00:08:15,520 Speaker 4: have private security to help out be force multipliers. We 145 00:08:15,560 --> 00:08:18,360 Speaker 4: have cameras twenty five hundred cameras that watch the city. 146 00:08:18,840 --> 00:08:21,600 Speaker 4: We have a drone program now that works seven days 147 00:08:21,600 --> 00:08:23,920 Speaker 4: a week. And we have a real time watch center 148 00:08:24,040 --> 00:08:27,200 Speaker 4: where we have security folks and police folks twenty four 149 00:08:27,240 --> 00:08:30,440 Speaker 4: to seven watching all of the above. You know, if 150 00:08:30,480 --> 00:08:32,400 Speaker 4: you can do prime in Beverly Hills, you're going to 151 00:08:32,440 --> 00:08:35,000 Speaker 4: get caught. There is no doubt you will get caught 152 00:08:35,280 --> 00:08:37,480 Speaker 4: because we're watching, and if people are smart, they'll do 153 00:08:37,480 --> 00:08:39,160 Speaker 4: their crime elsewhere. Right. 154 00:08:39,240 --> 00:08:40,920 Speaker 3: So this is not to say there hasn't been any 155 00:08:40,920 --> 00:08:43,360 Speaker 3: smashing crabs in Beverly Hills in the last couple of years, 156 00:08:43,400 --> 00:08:43,800 Speaker 3: is it. 157 00:08:44,640 --> 00:08:46,520 Speaker 4: Well, in the last couple of years, that's true. Probably 158 00:08:46,520 --> 00:08:50,120 Speaker 4: not in the last year or so, and certainly not 159 00:08:50,559 --> 00:08:54,400 Speaker 4: the sort of thing that we've seen in the media 160 00:08:54,480 --> 00:08:58,360 Speaker 4: in the last weeks were thankfully Nookwood. We've not had 161 00:08:58,400 --> 00:08:59,760 Speaker 4: anything that looks like that. 162 00:09:00,360 --> 00:09:03,280 Speaker 2: No, you know what's interesting the time that has been 163 00:09:03,360 --> 00:09:04,480 Speaker 2: something yeah, mayor goal. 164 00:09:04,559 --> 00:09:06,720 Speaker 3: By the time you finish this New York Post story, 165 00:09:06,840 --> 00:09:09,680 Speaker 3: they're talking about lap D and the La County Sheriff's 166 00:09:09,679 --> 00:09:12,719 Speaker 3: Department and crime and their task forces and if you 167 00:09:12,840 --> 00:09:14,800 Speaker 3: know the area, you know that's not Beverly Hills, and 168 00:09:14,800 --> 00:09:16,679 Speaker 3: it has nothing to do with Beverly Hills and how 169 00:09:16,720 --> 00:09:19,520 Speaker 3: they manage the city.

But he said, this is a scam 330 00:17:00,760 --> 00:17:03,280 Speaker 3: that was tried years ago, was shot down by a judge. 331 00:17:03,640 --> 00:17:07,719 Speaker 3: We will send Biden the same swift justice. Apparently, this 332 00:17:07,880 --> 00:17:11,760 Speaker 3: was tried in the nineteen eighties when Ronald Reagan was president. 333 00:17:12,080 --> 00:17:15,160 Speaker 3: The administration forced thousands of migrants to stay in South 334 00:17:15,200 --> 00:17:19,800 Speaker 3: Texas while they awaited asylum processing. Migrants quickly set up 335 00:17:19,840 --> 00:17:22,760 Speaker 3: camps and parking lots and abandoned buildings, and in January 336 00:17:22,760 --> 00:17:24,840 Speaker 3: of eighty nine, a judge said, you can't do that. 337 00:17:25,440 --> 00:17:28,320 Speaker 3: I remember that idea, well, you remember it was the 338 00:17:28,400 --> 00:17:31,200 Speaker 3: nineteen eighty six amnesty. Remember that that's the last time 339 00:17:31,200 --> 00:17:33,640 Speaker 3: we had a massive amnesty. And that was a mistake 340 00:17:33,680 --> 00:17:34,720 Speaker 3: of the Reagan administration. 341 00:17:34,920 --> 00:17:38,160 Speaker 1: That was the worst thing Ronald Reagan did a president. 342 00:17:38,200 --> 00:17:40,679 Speaker 1: It was a complete botch and they always cite. 343 00:17:40,400 --> 00:17:42,480 Speaker 3: That because this is what led to this decision in 344 00:17:42,560 --> 00:17:44,840 Speaker 3: nineteen eighty eight to force them to stay in Texas. 345 00:17:45,080 --> 00:17:47,840 Speaker 3: It led to a surge because once the world finds 346 00:17:47,840 --> 00:17:50,080 Speaker 3: out we're giving out amnesty, Holy. 347 00:17:49,800 --> 00:17:52,760 Speaker 1: Mackerel, all bets are off. It's a stupid thing Reagan did. 348 00:17:52,920 --> 00:17:54,840 Speaker 1: And then the second stupid thing was set up these 349 00:17:55,440 --> 00:17:58,560 Speaker 1: encampments because it's completely impractical. It just doesn't work. 350 00:18:00,119 --> 00:18:01,879 Speaker 2: What you can't let them in. 351 00:18:02,080 --> 00:18:04,440 Speaker 1: And this is another thing that pisses me off. We're 352 00:18:04,440 --> 00:18:07,160 Speaker 1: fighting about the wrong thing. We're fighting about where they're 353 00:18:07,840 --> 00:18:09,119 Speaker 1: where they're going to go. 354 00:18:09,480 --> 00:18:13,320 Speaker 2: Right, and they're getting in here right. They shouldn't be here. 355 00:18:13,760 --> 00:18:17,080 Speaker 1: You have to build the wall, you have to force 356 00:18:17,119 --> 00:18:21,120 Speaker 1: them to remain in Mexico. You have to send You're 357 00:18:21,119 --> 00:18:25,320 Speaker 1: gonna have to send the military to the border, partly 358 00:18:25,600 --> 00:18:28,560 Speaker 1: to guard the border and partly to go after the 359 00:18:28,640 --> 00:18:33,280 Speaker 1: drug cartels that are making billions of dollars of sending 360 00:18:33,320 --> 00:18:37,000 Speaker 1: so much fentanyl and meth into this country and killing 361 00:18:37,240 --> 00:18:38,679 Speaker 1: hundreds of thousands of people. 362 00:18:39,000 --> 00:18:39,440 Speaker 2: I can't. 363 00:18:39,880 --> 00:18:42,080 Speaker 1: I am out of my mind with the way this 364 00:18:42,119 --> 00:18:46,840 Speaker 1: whole thing is discussed and covered. Everybody's missing or refusing 365 00:18:47,119 --> 00:18:50,199 Speaker 1: to look at the real problems here. You got one 366 00:18:50,240 --> 00:18:54,479 Speaker 1: hundred thousand plus people dying from fentanyl and meth coming 367 00:18:54,560 --> 00:18:57,840 Speaker 1: from Mexico, the drug cartel. I heard this morning Todd 368 00:18:57,840 --> 00:18:59,840 Speaker 1: Benzman on We should get him on again, remember we 369 00:18:59,840 --> 00:19:02,560 Speaker 1: had him on. He's like this independent reporter. He did 370 00:19:02,560 --> 00:19:06,280 Speaker 1: a report on Fox this morning and I actually sat 371 00:19:06,320 --> 00:19:08,760 Speaker 1: in the parking lot. I couldn't turn it off. He 372 00:19:08,960 --> 00:19:13,320 Speaker 1: said that the drug cartels are charging ten to fifteen 373 00:19:13,359 --> 00:19:18,000 Speaker 1: thousand dollars for these families to come over the border. 374 00:19:18,320 --> 00:19:21,600 Speaker 1: And obviously these families don't have ten or fifteen thousand dollars, right, 375 00:19:21,920 --> 00:19:24,960 Speaker 1: But you become indentured servants. You have to pay the 376 00:19:25,040 --> 00:19:28,560 Speaker 1: loan back. And so they come and they try to 377 00:19:28,600 --> 00:19:32,439 Speaker 1: scrounge jobs, and they're constantly sending giving money back to 378 00:19:32,920 --> 00:19:37,040 Speaker 1: the drug cartel lords. And if you don't, they come 379 00:19:37,080 --> 00:19:40,240 Speaker 1: and get you and it's violent, or they go find 380 00:19:40,280 --> 00:19:45,000 Speaker 1: your relatives back in Mexico and they harm your relatives 381 00:19:45,320 --> 00:19:46,800 Speaker 1: works exactly. 382 00:19:46,320 --> 00:19:47,000 Speaker 2: Like the mafia. 383 00:19:47,480 --> 00:19:50,960 Speaker 1: So this is the kind of situation that's happening that 384 00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:54,720 Speaker 1: we are enabling. That the Biden administration, which knows this 385 00:19:54,760 --> 00:19:57,840 Speaker 1: is going on, This is not a secret. They're enabling 386 00:19:57,920 --> 00:20:01,640 Speaker 1: the situation. Apparently, the the drug cartels have gone from 387 00:20:01,640 --> 00:20:04,359 Speaker 1: about five billion dollars a year at income to about 388 00:20:04,400 --> 00:20:07,160 Speaker 1: twelve billion dollars a year because. 389 00:20:06,840 --> 00:20:09,520 Speaker 3: The Bider administration opened the borders. They reversed all the 390 00:20:09,520 --> 00:20:12,720 Speaker 3: Trump policies. They sent the world a message that it 391 00:20:12,840 --> 00:20:15,640 Speaker 3: is your human right to come here and we will 392 00:20:15,720 --> 00:20:17,679 Speaker 3: figure out a way to get you in. And then 393 00:20:17,680 --> 00:20:20,480 Speaker 3: when the board it became overwhelmed with all the pictures 394 00:20:20,480 --> 00:20:23,399 Speaker 3: and video of people lined up under bridges, well they 395 00:20:23,480 --> 00:20:26,239 Speaker 3: changed the policy around to just use an app, and 396 00:20:26,400 --> 00:20:28,520 Speaker 3: if you use the app, it'll get you some sort 397 00:20:28,520 --> 00:20:30,400 Speaker 3: of status to get in here. They call it on parole. 398 00:20:30,840 --> 00:20:34,040 Speaker 3: So they no longer have their illegal immigrant numbers or 399 00:20:34,080 --> 00:20:37,639 Speaker 3: their you know, apprehensions. They now have just a bunch 400 00:20:37,640 --> 00:20:41,679 Speaker 3: of quote legal people that they're scam try and spreading 401 00:20:41,720 --> 00:20:42,800 Speaker 3: around into cities. 402 00:20:43,200 --> 00:20:45,600 Speaker 2: It's dishonest, it's a scam, that's what it is. This 403 00:20:45,640 --> 00:20:46,240 Speaker 2: is coming back. 404 00:20:46,160 --> 00:20:49,720 Speaker 3: To haunt Biden because it's democrats in these cities. The 405 00:20:49,760 --> 00:20:51,960 Speaker 3: mayor of New York we talked about yesterday says the 406 00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:54,359 Speaker 3: city is going to go broke, And now we're learning 407 00:20:54,400 --> 00:20:58,240 Speaker 3: that in Chicago they're housing hundreds of migrants at Ohare Airport. 408 00:20:58,640 --> 00:21:02,679 Speaker 3: They're housed in this section hidden from public view behind curtains. 409 00:21:03,040 --> 00:21:04,919 Speaker 3: They were about thirty at the beginning of August. Now 410 00:21:04,920 --> 00:21:05,920 Speaker 3: there's hundreds there. 411 00:21:07,119 --> 00:21:11,000 Speaker 2: So there. You can't this can't go on forever. 412 00:21:11,400 --> 00:21:14,280 Speaker 1: This is what we've been discussing for years, and eventually 413 00:21:14,680 --> 00:21:18,679 Speaker 1: there's a reckoning because you can't just send two million 414 00:21:18,720 --> 00:21:21,600 Speaker 1: people into the country with no end in sight. 415 00:21:21,720 --> 00:21:23,920 Speaker 3: And spect them not to be a problem if they're 416 00:21:23,920 --> 00:21:25,920 Speaker 3: together in one place. I mean, you even have to 417 00:21:25,960 --> 00:21:29,160 Speaker 3: spread two million people around the country, it's still pretty noticeable. 418 00:21:29,640 --> 00:21:32,000 Speaker 1: Eric Adams and I had no sympathy for that guy, 419 00:21:32,280 --> 00:21:34,680 Speaker 1: because he wanted New York to be a sanctuary city. 420 00:21:34,760 --> 00:21:37,239 Speaker 1: Chicago wanted to be a sanctuary city. They're getting all 421 00:21:37,280 --> 00:21:39,680 Speaker 1: the misery they deserve, and the people living in these 422 00:21:39,720 --> 00:21:43,639 Speaker 1: cities deserve this misery because they voted for this, for 423 00:21:43,680 --> 00:21:47,400 Speaker 1: these sanctuary city clowns, and nobody protested. 424 00:21:47,760 --> 00:21:49,639 Speaker 2: What did they think? What did they think? Was going 425 00:21:49,720 --> 00:21:50,119 Speaker 2: to happen. 426 00:21:50,880 --> 00:21:53,919 Speaker 1: They knew two million people were coming over the border, 427 00:21:54,200 --> 00:21:57,800 Speaker 1: and immigrants tend to go to the cities. That's where 428 00:21:57,800 --> 00:22:00,679 Speaker 1: their relatives are and that's where the jobs are. Well, 429 00:22:00,720 --> 00:22:02,680 Speaker 1: you're not going to go to a small rural town 430 00:22:02,720 --> 00:22:05,560 Speaker 1: of seventy five people in Nebraska, right there's nowhere to work. 431 00:22:05,600 --> 00:22:08,720 Speaker 1: You don't know anybody there. But you know there's Venezuelans 432 00:22:08,760 --> 00:22:11,320 Speaker 1: coming over the border by the thousands and thousands. They're 433 00:22:11,320 --> 00:22:13,920 Speaker 1: going to go to venezu whaling communities, which are embedded 434 00:22:13,960 --> 00:22:17,560 Speaker 1: in the larger cities and have been for decades. 435 00:22:18,160 --> 00:22:20,920 Speaker 3: We got more coming up.
