You know, my 64 00:03:19,040 --> 00:03:21,280 Speaker 4: father always used to tell me I had a wonderful father, 65 00:03:21,440 --> 00:03:26,320 Speaker 4: very smart, and he used to say, son, when you 66 00:03:26,360 --> 00:03:29,120 Speaker 4: walk into a restaurant and you see a dirty front door, 67 00:03:30,360 --> 00:03:33,240 Speaker 4: don't go in because if the front door is dirty, 68 00:03:33,400 --> 00:03:34,359 Speaker 4: the kitchens dirty. 69 00:03:34,360 --> 00:03:37,440 Speaker 2: Also, same thing with the capital. 70 00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:42,040 Speaker 4: If our capital is dirty, our whole country is dirty. 71 00:03:42,120 --> 00:03:43,320 Speaker 5: And they don't respect us. 72 00:03:45,320 --> 00:03:48,480 Speaker 1: And I can see that Washington, DC is in effect 73 00:03:48,480 --> 00:03:51,640 Speaker 1: the front door the United States of America. President Trump 74 00:03:51,680 --> 00:03:54,000 Speaker 1: making great strides for peace both bastically in the. 75 00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:55,000 Speaker 2: Worldwide as well. 76 00:03:56,040 --> 00:03:58,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, coming up on Friday, there's a meeting set to 77 00:03:58,240 --> 00:04:02,720 Speaker 1: take place between President Trump and Russian dictator Vladimir Putin 78 00:04:02,840 --> 00:04:06,040 Speaker 1: where the two will be continuing the conversation on how 79 00:04:06,040 --> 00:04:06,600 Speaker 1: to end. 80 00:04:06,520 --> 00:04:09,880 Speaker 2: The ongoing war in Ukraine. This is also cleaning up 81 00:04:09,920 --> 00:04:10,320 Speaker 2: the world. 82 00:04:10,800 --> 00:04:13,680 Speaker 1: The war is costing five thousand people their lives on 83 00:04:13,720 --> 00:04:16,560 Speaker 1: a weekly basis, on average, more than twenty thousand a month, 84 00:04:16,760 --> 00:04:20,200 Speaker 1: and despite several attempts at forging peace, President Trump has 85 00:04:20,240 --> 00:04:24,120 Speaker 1: not been able to deliver at least not yet. However, 86 00:04:24,160 --> 00:04:26,840 Speaker 1: the President has made it clear, not by words but 87 00:04:26,920 --> 00:04:30,599 Speaker 1: by actions, that his administration will travel to the four 88 00:04:30,680 --> 00:04:33,280 Speaker 1: corners of the earth to get people to lay down 89 00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:36,880 Speaker 1: their arms and come to the table of peace. So 90 00:04:37,880 --> 00:04:41,000 Speaker 1: say whatever you want about President Trump. He's a bully, 91 00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:45,680 Speaker 1: he writes me tweets, or the left's favorite he's hitler, 92 00:04:45,839 --> 00:04:51,279 Speaker 1: he's a Nazi, but the facts speak for themselves. Unlike 93 00:04:51,320 --> 00:04:53,679 Speaker 1: the Nazis, He's setting the world out a path to peace, 94 00:04:53,839 --> 00:04:55,320 Speaker 1: not global conflict. 95 00:04:55,960 --> 00:05:01,040 Speaker 2: In just seven months, seven months He has broken. 96 00:05:00,720 --> 00:05:04,520 Speaker 1: Peace deals that have reshaped the world, brought stability to 97 00:05:04,640 --> 00:05:08,359 Speaker 1: regions torn apart by decades of confident, laid the foundation 98 00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:12,400 Speaker 1: for prosperity that will echo for generations. I'll be the 99 00:05:12,440 --> 00:05:15,120 Speaker 1: emptieh person to say this, but he deserves the Nobel 100 00:05:15,160 --> 00:05:17,159 Speaker 1: Peace Prize. Even if you now think it's just a 101 00:05:17,680 --> 00:05:19,920 Speaker 1: left wing virtue signal at this point, and maybe it is. 102 00:05:21,200 --> 00:05:23,640 Speaker 1: We'll get back to that first. Let's talk about what 103 00:05:23,680 --> 00:05:27,359 Speaker 1: global stability really means. A peaceful world isn't just a 104 00:05:27,480 --> 00:05:32,679 Speaker 1: nice idea. It's the bedrock of sustainable growth. When nations 105 00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:39,120 Speaker 1: aren't at each other's throats, they can trade, innovate and thrive. Businesses, flourish, families, 106 00:05:39,160 --> 00:05:45,560 Speaker 1: prosper and hope replaces fear. President Trump gets this. He's 107 00:05:45,600 --> 00:05:49,719 Speaker 1: not chasing headlines or photo ops. He's chasing results. He 108 00:05:49,880 --> 00:05:54,240 Speaker 1: is transactional and that's okay. Boy has he delivered in 109 00:05:54,320 --> 00:05:56,839 Speaker 1: seven months. He's notched up a string of peace deals. 110 00:05:56,839 --> 00:06:00,599 Speaker 1: It would make any diplomat green with envy. Let's run 111 00:06:00,600 --> 00:06:03,240 Speaker 1: through them, because this is a resume of peace like 112 00:06:03,320 --> 00:06:06,600 Speaker 1: no other we've ever seen. The latest deal happening Friday, 113 00:06:07,120 --> 00:06:10,800 Speaker 1: well after almost forty years of War, Armenia and Azerbijan 114 00:06:10,880 --> 00:06:13,520 Speaker 1: signed a peace deal at the White House, the latest 115 00:06:13,600 --> 00:06:16,760 Speaker 1: victory for peace in just two hundred days of Donald 116 00:06:16,760 --> 00:06:20,640 Speaker 1: Trump's second term. It's a truly remarkable accomplishment, one that 117 00:06:20,680 --> 00:06:23,520 Speaker 1: would earn almost anyone the Nobel Peace Prize. But of 118 00:06:23,520 --> 00:06:28,640 Speaker 1: course that would mean that politics, backroom politics need to 119 00:06:28,680 --> 00:06:30,560 Speaker 1: be set aside for an honest evaluation. 120 00:06:31,400 --> 00:06:34,720 Speaker 2: Here's a portion of that agreement signing. Watch for yourself. 121 00:06:42,160 --> 00:06:44,839 Speaker 6: The President of the United States, the President of the 122 00:06:44,880 --> 00:06:47,960 Speaker 6: Republic of Azerbaijan, and the Prime Minister of the Republic 123 00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:50,880 Speaker 6: of Armenia will now sign the Joint Declaration on the 124 00:06:50,880 --> 00:06:54,119 Speaker 6: Outcomes of the Trump Route for International Peace and Prosperity Summit. 125 00:06:54,560 --> 00:06:57,320 Speaker 7: Really will sign three copies in English. The President of 126 00:06:57,320 --> 00:06:59,920 Speaker 7: the United States signs as a witness to the President 127 00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:02,719 Speaker 7: of the Republic of Erbaijan and the Prime Minister of 128 00:07:02,760 --> 00:07:06,320 Speaker 7: the Republic of Armenia, affirming their path to peace, stability 129 00:07:06,400 --> 00:07:09,680 Speaker 7: and prosperity. We kindly ask that all guests are remade 130 00:07:09,720 --> 00:07:11,360 Speaker 7: seated for the signing of the documents. 131 00:07:15,240 --> 00:07:18,360 Speaker 1: Not only did they end decades of hostility, but they 132 00:07:18,400 --> 00:07:22,120 Speaker 1: also created the Trump Route for International Peace and prosperity. 133 00:07:22,640 --> 00:07:25,960 Speaker 1: It's a trade route, a transit quarter through Armenia, connecting 134 00:07:26,320 --> 00:07:29,360 Speaker 1: Azerbijean to its nokchiven enclave. 135 00:07:30,280 --> 00:07:33,960 Speaker 2: You see, this isn't just a ceasefire, friends, it's a 136 00:07:34,080 --> 00:07:36,080 Speaker 2: roadmap for economic. 137 00:07:35,600 --> 00:07:40,240 Speaker 1: Cooperation in the United States, leading the charge to develop infrastructure, 138 00:07:40,400 --> 00:07:41,360 Speaker 1: energy and trade. 139 00:07:42,720 --> 00:07:44,280 Speaker 2: Then there's Cambodia and Thailand. 140 00:07:44,960 --> 00:07:48,160 Speaker 1: Border clashes had these Southeast Asian neighbors on edge, threatening 141 00:07:48,360 --> 00:07:52,360 Speaker 1: regional instability. Trump stepped in and with his unmatched deal 142 00:07:52,400 --> 00:07:55,840 Speaker 1: making skills, broken a seasfire that stopped the fighting cold. 143 00:07:56,720 --> 00:08:01,520 Speaker 1: Cambodia's Deputy Prime Minster's son Chanhal so impressed he announced 144 00:08:01,560 --> 00:08:04,720 Speaker 1: his country's plan to nominate Trump for the Nobel Prize 145 00:08:05,320 --> 00:08:08,600 Speaker 1: as another nation in his corner, recognizing the man who 146 00:08:08,720 --> 00:08:13,920 Speaker 1: turned conflict into cooperation. One of the other significant interventions 147 00:08:13,920 --> 00:08:15,920 Speaker 1: by the President, of course, negotiating an end to the 148 00:08:15,920 --> 00:08:19,320 Speaker 1: war between Rwanda and the Democratic Republic of Congo. 149 00:08:20,120 --> 00:08:22,000 Speaker 2: They had been at war for thirty years. 150 00:08:23,000 --> 00:08:26,880 Speaker 1: These are consequential accomplishments that should be applauded, and they 151 00:08:26,920 --> 00:08:31,960 Speaker 1: are here, but they're dismissed by the legacy media and 152 00:08:32,040 --> 00:08:35,000 Speaker 1: largely ignored places like The New York Times Washington Post 153 00:08:35,080 --> 00:08:38,239 Speaker 1: and elsewhere, including MSNBC and CNN. 154 00:08:39,080 --> 00:08:40,719 Speaker 2: That's truly sad, it is, and. 155 00:08:40,679 --> 00:08:44,840 Speaker 1: It's an embarrassment those folks call themselves journalists. You would 156 00:08:44,880 --> 00:08:47,720 Speaker 1: think that by stopping wars all over the planet, President 157 00:08:47,760 --> 00:08:52,800 Speaker 1: Trump would be celebrated, but too many just ignored these accomplishments, 158 00:08:52,920 --> 00:08:53,920 Speaker 1: huge accomplishments. 159 00:08:54,960 --> 00:08:56,720 Speaker 2: And by the way, there are more you probably haven't 160 00:08:56,760 --> 00:09:00,640 Speaker 2: even heard of. Did you know? Did you know the White. 161 00:09:00,320 --> 00:09:03,959 Speaker 1: House intervening to stop fighting between Serbia and Kosovo and 162 00:09:04,160 --> 00:09:07,319 Speaker 1: stopped an escalation of the violence there. How about Egypt 163 00:09:07,320 --> 00:09:10,720 Speaker 1: and Ethiopia. You've probably never even heard about those deals 164 00:09:10,760 --> 00:09:13,760 Speaker 1: being put together. And you know why they aren't sexy 165 00:09:13,840 --> 00:09:16,640 Speaker 1: enough to lead NBC nightly news now when they can 166 00:09:16,679 --> 00:09:20,080 Speaker 1: try to smear the present with something about his friendship 167 00:09:20,080 --> 00:09:22,920 Speaker 1: with Jeffrey Epstein, a long dead pedophile who, by the way, 168 00:09:23,800 --> 00:09:26,840 Speaker 1: never stopped any wars, but probably could have with the 169 00:09:26,840 --> 00:09:27,600 Speaker 1: pictures he had. 170 00:09:27,480 --> 00:09:28,280 Speaker 2: In his possession. 171 00:09:29,559 --> 00:09:32,120 Speaker 1: But there's a lot more work to be done, other 172 00:09:32,200 --> 00:09:35,480 Speaker 1: wars to be stopped. President Jele's push to end wars 173 00:09:35,520 --> 00:09:37,559 Speaker 1: also includes the ongoing crisis. 174 00:09:37,120 --> 00:09:41,160 Speaker 2: In Gaza, says jd Vance. Here he is from yesterday. 175 00:09:41,520 --> 00:09:45,360 Speaker 8: Fundamentally, what we're trying to accomplish for America's perspective is, 176 00:09:45,440 --> 00:09:48,280 Speaker 8: number one, we want to make this so that Hamas 177 00:09:48,360 --> 00:09:52,880 Speaker 8: cannot kill innocent people, Israeli's, Americans or anybody else. Number Two, 178 00:09:52,920 --> 00:09:55,240 Speaker 8: we want the hostages to come home. And number three, 179 00:09:55,280 --> 00:09:56,920 Speaker 8: the presidents have been very clear that you do have 180 00:09:56,960 --> 00:09:59,560 Speaker 8: a humanitarian crisis there where if a lot of innocent 181 00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:02,839 Speaker 8: people who are really struggling, and we will to make 182 00:10:02,880 --> 00:10:04,920 Speaker 8: sure that the people of Gaza are able to get food, 183 00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:07,120 Speaker 8: able to get medicine and so forth. And so we're 184 00:10:07,160 --> 00:10:09,200 Speaker 8: trying to accomplish all three of those things. And what 185 00:10:09,240 --> 00:10:11,240 Speaker 8: the President has said is he wants to be again 186 00:10:11,559 --> 00:10:15,160 Speaker 8: the President of peace. He is encouraging, through every diplomatic 187 00:10:15,600 --> 00:10:19,880 Speaker 8: method possible, a rapid into the conflict. The hostages get 188 00:10:19,880 --> 00:10:22,520 Speaker 8: to come home, the people of Gaza get a free 189 00:10:22,520 --> 00:10:26,079 Speaker 8: flow of humanitarian aid. That's what we're working towards, and 190 00:10:26,120 --> 00:10:27,760 Speaker 8: we're to keep on working with our allies in the 191 00:10:27,760 --> 00:10:28,720 Speaker 8: region to make that happen. 192 00:10:30,160 --> 00:10:33,480 Speaker 2: To make that happen. And for those in Europe that 193 00:10:33,520 --> 00:10:34,360 Speaker 2: are honest. 194 00:10:34,040 --> 00:10:35,960 Speaker 1: And wanting to look critically at what those White House 195 00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:38,520 Speaker 1: has done, they can see quite clearly that President Trump 196 00:10:38,559 --> 00:10:39,640 Speaker 1: is setting the tone. 197 00:10:39,400 --> 00:10:42,440 Speaker 2: For a world at peace. That is, if you can. 198 00:10:42,320 --> 00:10:45,040 Speaker 1: Now get Russia and Ukraine to find terms they can 199 00:10:45,080 --> 00:10:50,120 Speaker 1: accept and stop the slow grinding war machine. NATO Secretary 200 00:10:50,360 --> 00:10:53,400 Speaker 1: Mark Rute said Trump's leadership on stopping the war in 201 00:10:53,480 --> 00:10:56,400 Speaker 1: Ukraine has been critical to the success so far and 202 00:10:56,440 --> 00:10:58,920 Speaker 1: the opportunity that is at hand here. 203 00:10:58,960 --> 00:11:01,840 Speaker 5: He is I think it is very good that President 204 00:11:01,880 --> 00:11:04,839 Speaker 5: Trump will test him and they'll see how far I 205 00:11:04,880 --> 00:11:09,280 Speaker 5: can get. On Friday, starting this process, he basically broke 206 00:11:09,320 --> 00:11:12,680 Speaker 5: the deadlock. President Trump in February starting the dialogue was 207 00:11:12,679 --> 00:11:15,040 Speaker 5: putting I think that was crucial. We had a great 208 00:11:15,120 --> 00:11:19,080 Speaker 5: NATO summit under his leadership, committing to five percent defense spending, 209 00:11:19,120 --> 00:11:21,559 Speaker 5: so that there's a clear signal to our main threat, 210 00:11:21,640 --> 00:11:24,120 Speaker 5: which is Russia, that we are serious. And then he 211 00:11:24,160 --> 00:11:28,280 Speaker 5: opened the floodgates three weeks ago of American lethal weapons 212 00:11:28,320 --> 00:11:32,120 Speaker 5: to be delivered into Ukraine, coordinated by NATO, and of 213 00:11:32,120 --> 00:11:35,680 Speaker 5: course the secondary sanctions he started them with, putting them 214 00:11:35,720 --> 00:11:38,840 Speaker 5: on India, which is one of the biggest bias of 215 00:11:39,120 --> 00:11:40,679 Speaker 5: Russian oil and gas. 216 00:11:42,320 --> 00:11:44,360 Speaker 1: And so much more to cover on this topic, but 217 00:11:44,400 --> 00:11:47,960 Speaker 1: we're going to take a departure a detour to Washington, 218 00:11:48,080 --> 00:11:50,680 Speaker 1: d C. And the reason for that is because right 219 00:11:50,720 --> 00:11:54,720 Speaker 1: now we have the city police officers and the mayor MARYO. 220 00:11:54,840 --> 00:11:58,960 Speaker 1: Bowser responding now that Donaldrump's moved to take over and 221 00:11:59,040 --> 00:12:02,800 Speaker 1: federalize the DC Police Department and clean up that city, 222 00:12:03,480 --> 00:12:05,200 Speaker 1: let's dip in and listen. 223 00:12:05,960 --> 00:12:09,280 Speaker 9: So regarding the efforts around the city for how we 224 00:12:09,360 --> 00:12:13,160 Speaker 9: will allocate resources, what I will say is this, our 225 00:12:13,200 --> 00:12:16,719 Speaker 9: relationship with our federal partners is not new. We do 226 00:12:16,760 --> 00:12:20,280 Speaker 9: this on a daily basis. We are very very much 227 00:12:20,320 --> 00:12:23,960 Speaker 9: in tune to having federal law enforcement officers working with 228 00:12:24,040 --> 00:12:27,080 Speaker 9: us on our Capital Area Regional Task Force. Our federal 229 00:12:27,120 --> 00:12:32,120 Speaker 9: partners work with us, especially on some of our warrant executions. 230 00:12:32,720 --> 00:12:34,959 Speaker 9: They work very very closely with us with our Violent 231 00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:38,320 Speaker 9: Crime Suppression Division, and it is my intent and my 232 00:12:38,760 --> 00:12:41,960 Speaker 9: police department's intent to continue those efforts. What you will 233 00:12:41,960 --> 00:12:44,600 Speaker 9: see as an enhanced present. The second thing that's really 234 00:12:44,600 --> 00:12:46,880 Speaker 9: important to me, and I'm speaking directly to our community, 235 00:12:46,920 --> 00:12:49,920 Speaker 9: is that we have a relationship with our community that 236 00:12:49,960 --> 00:12:52,640 Speaker 9: is very important to us, our community members, and so 237 00:12:52,760 --> 00:12:57,720 Speaker 9: having our Metropolitan Police Department working alongside of our federal 238 00:12:57,760 --> 00:13:01,120 Speaker 9: partners who have come into the city to really help 239 00:13:01,200 --> 00:13:03,200 Speaker 9: us assess and deal with the crime that some of 240 00:13:03,240 --> 00:13:06,920 Speaker 9: the crime spikes that we have, we will work alongside them, 241 00:13:06,960 --> 00:13:10,559 Speaker 9: but intentionally, we want to make sure that our community 242 00:13:10,679 --> 00:13:13,360 Speaker 9: understands that we are there. We're going to be boots 243 00:13:13,360 --> 00:13:16,440 Speaker 9: on the ground. If you see something, again, say something. 244 00:13:16,480 --> 00:13:20,000 Speaker 9: We value those relationships our community members, and I'll think 245 00:13:20,080 --> 00:13:21,760 Speaker 9: I want to say thank you for all the work 246 00:13:21,760 --> 00:13:24,920 Speaker 9: that you've done with the Metropolitan Police Department up up 247 00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:29,720 Speaker 9: to this point. Those relationships are very very important to us, 248 00:13:29,840 --> 00:13:31,679 Speaker 9: and we want to continue to build up on that 249 00:13:31,720 --> 00:13:34,319 Speaker 9: and continue to enhance that. I'll turn it back over 250 00:13:34,320 --> 00:13:35,000 Speaker 9: to Mayor Bowser. 251 00:13:35,000 --> 00:13:39,800 Speaker 3: Now, okay, we'll take a few questions, and I'm joined 252 00:13:39,800 --> 00:13:43,480 Speaker 3: by members of my public safety team, including Deputy Mayor 253 00:13:43,520 --> 00:13:47,040 Speaker 3: A Pa and Chief Don John Donnelly.

And I think that's a 259 00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:11,760 Speaker 3: question that we You're familiar with the rhetoric about the 260 00:14:11,800 --> 00:14:15,760 Speaker 3: city and how long it goes back, and we also 261 00:14:17,280 --> 00:14:20,360 Speaker 3: know that we're not experiencing a spike in crime, but 262 00:14:20,400 --> 00:14:21,800 Speaker 3: a decrease in crime. Yep. 263 00:14:22,840 --> 00:14:26,040 Speaker 4: There you and the. 264 00:14:26,040 --> 00:14:30,200 Speaker 10: Chief are talking about partnerships, the federal partners who are 265 00:14:30,240 --> 00:14:34,560 Speaker 10: coming in. The President is talking about a takeover of 266 00:14:34,600 --> 00:14:38,400 Speaker 10: the city's police department. Where is the chief that in 267 00:14:38,640 --> 00:14:43,120 Speaker 10: with Terry Cole, who do use the federal commissioner of 268 00:14:43,240 --> 00:14:44,720 Speaker 10: the DC Police Department. 269 00:14:45,960 --> 00:14:51,200 Speaker 3: Nothing about our organizational chart has changed, and nothing in 270 00:14:51,360 --> 00:14:58,320 Speaker 3: the executive Order would indicate otherwise. So the Chief of 271 00:14:58,440 --> 00:15:02,160 Speaker 3: police report it's through the Deputy mayor to the Mayor 272 00:15:02,200 --> 00:15:05,720 Speaker 3: of the District of Columbia, and the two people I 273 00:15:05,760 --> 00:15:08,640 Speaker 3: think that were identified in the press or report to 274 00:15:08,760 --> 00:15:13,800 Speaker 3: Eternal Attorney General Bondi. The executive Order makes clear that 275 00:15:13,880 --> 00:15:19,320 Speaker 3: all requests for MPD services the President delegates to Attorney 276 00:15:19,320 --> 00:15:20,000 Speaker 3: General Bondi. 277 00:15:22,160 --> 00:15:24,520 Speaker 9: I don't call the names. 278 00:15:24,600 --> 00:15:31,400 Speaker 3: Yes, that that's the question for the Attorney General. I 279 00:15:31,400 --> 00:15:32,200 Speaker 3: think ye. 280 00:15:34,840 --> 00:15:39,400 Speaker 10: Are you planning to cooperate in this new framework. 281 00:15:39,200 --> 00:15:40,680 Speaker 11: Or planning. 282 00:15:45,200 --> 00:15:48,320 Speaker 3: Well? I think all legal I think you probably saw 283 00:15:48,400 --> 00:15:52,960 Speaker 3: the Attorney General for the District, Brian schwabs a statement 284 00:15:53,160 --> 00:15:56,320 Speaker 3: about reviewing all legal matters, and I think those matters 285 00:15:56,360 --> 00:16:01,440 Speaker 3: are under review. The playing language, however, of the Home 286 00:16:01,640 --> 00:16:06,280 Speaker 3: Rule Charter in the case that there is a declared 287 00:16:06,320 --> 00:16:14,080 Speaker 3: emergency there are, It allows the president, it authorizes the 288 00:16:14,120 --> 00:16:19,120 Speaker 3: president to make those requests, and it says the mayor 289 00:16:19,280 --> 00:16:41,320 Speaker 3: shall comply with those those requests. So yeah, law, Well, 290 00:16:42,880 --> 00:16:46,640 Speaker 3: we should note and we have been advised, and we 291 00:16:46,720 --> 00:16:51,880 Speaker 3: will continue to make this UH clear that this is 292 00:16:51,960 --> 00:16:56,560 Speaker 3: needed in our city, that all law enforcement be identifiable 293 00:16:56,960 --> 00:17:01,280 Speaker 3: by uniform, a badge, a jacket, so that people know 294 00:17:01,760 --> 00:17:04,560 Speaker 3: that they are law enforcement. 295 00:17:05,200 --> 00:17:05,480 Speaker 10: UH. 296 00:17:05,520 --> 00:17:13,080 Speaker 3: And the the chief in her coordination with the the 297 00:17:13,160 --> 00:17:16,240 Speaker 3: kind of the command on the federal side, will make 298 00:17:16,400 --> 00:17:20,880 Speaker 3: clear kind of how the protocols for response. And if 299 00:17:20,880 --> 00:17:24,000 Speaker 3: there's any additional information we need to get out to 300 00:17:24,040 --> 00:17:27,560 Speaker 3: the public, we will. But the the main point is 301 00:17:27,640 --> 00:17:32,359 Speaker 3: this everybody should follow the law, the police and the community. 302 00:17:32,600 --> 00:17:32,959 Speaker 10: UH. 303 00:17:33,000 --> 00:17:35,920 Speaker 3: And that that's the case now. It was the case 304 00:17:36,000 --> 00:17:38,520 Speaker 3: last week, and it was the case the week before that, 305 00:17:38,640 --> 00:17:40,160 Speaker 3: So nothing has changed about that. 306 00:17:40,520 --> 00:17:46,360 Speaker 1: YEP. To respond to statement that came out the DC 307 00:17:46,480 --> 00:17:48,119 Speaker 1: Police Union, they come out. 308 00:17:47,960 --> 00:17:50,920 Speaker 12: With that they stand with the residents and that they 309 00:17:50,920 --> 00:17:52,919 Speaker 12: have also said climate smiley out of control. 310 00:17:53,000 --> 00:17:59,200 Speaker 13: They're also calling for the further and repeal. 311 00:17:59,359 --> 00:17:59,960 Speaker 14: Of the legislation. 312 00:18:02,280 --> 00:18:05,199 Speaker 3: I'm afraid I haven't seen that statement yet, so I 313 00:18:05,240 --> 00:18:07,960 Speaker 3: don't I don't wanna comment on it. U. We have, 314 00:18:08,680 --> 00:18:12,200 Speaker 3: you know, worked very closely with the DC Police Union. 315 00:18:12,400 --> 00:18:16,320 Speaker 3: Some issues Dave advanced, I've totally agree with others. I haven't. 316 00:18:17,119 --> 00:18:22,119 Speaker 3: One thing that we are squarely supportive of is making 317 00:18:22,160 --> 00:18:25,960 Speaker 3: sure that our department can recruit more officers and get 318 00:18:26,040 --> 00:18:29,320 Speaker 3: to a number that I think we need. We've worked 319 00:18:29,320 --> 00:18:34,360 Speaker 3: cooperatively with them on recruitment and retention activities on some 320 00:18:34,440 --> 00:18:38,879 Speaker 3: other changes to the law that were very objectionable to 321 00:18:38,960 --> 00:18:42,080 Speaker 3: the union and are our members, and we will continue 322 00:18:42,080 --> 00:18:46,480 Speaker 3: to do that. Yeah, So. 323 00:18:48,000 --> 00:18:52,280 Speaker 12: In what way any in what way does change most strategy? 324 00:18:52,320 --> 00:18:55,320 Speaker 12: In terms of your relationship with the president? You've been 325 00:18:55,800 --> 00:18:59,879 Speaker 12: pretty diplomatic, but you know what he's saying with me 326 00:19:00,080 --> 00:19:02,560 Speaker 12: about far your your statement facts and you still your 327 00:19:02,600 --> 00:19:06,480 Speaker 12: fringing on your on your roles finger, So you know, 328 00:19:06,520 --> 00:19:09,639 Speaker 12: as far as your relationship and your strategy, you know, 329 00:19:10,040 --> 00:19:12,560 Speaker 12: are you gonna what do you intend to do as 330 00:19:12,600 --> 00:19:15,399 Speaker 12: far as you know engaging with me? 331 00:19:16,280 --> 00:19:20,600 Speaker 3: Well, we we engage with all officials that impact the 332 00:19:20,640 --> 00:19:23,760 Speaker 3: district and that includes the president. So I don't expect 333 00:19:23,800 --> 00:19:25,360 Speaker 3: that that would change from our part. 334 00:19:25,720 --> 00:19:26,679 Speaker 13: As far as you know. 335 00:19:27,119 --> 00:19:29,120 Speaker 2: Now, how I follow up? 336 00:19:29,200 --> 00:19:32,120 Speaker 3: Sure, are you gonna go. 337 00:19:34,119 --> 00:19:36,040 Speaker 12: And push you back against what you're trying to do, 338 00:19:36,600 --> 00:19:38,840 Speaker 12: you know, or your ten or change or intensifies. 339 00:19:39,119 --> 00:19:44,480 Speaker 3: You know, my tenor will be appropriate for what I 340 00:19:44,560 --> 00:19:48,159 Speaker 3: think is important for the district. And what's important for 341 00:19:48,200 --> 00:19:51,320 Speaker 3: the district is that we can take care of our citizens. 342 00:19:52,320 --> 00:20:00,119 Speaker 3: And if people aren't concerned about a president's ability to 343 00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:04,919 Speaker 3: to have the MPD Police Department be responsive to the 344 00:20:04,960 --> 00:20:08,800 Speaker 3: Department of Justice, the time to address that is when 345 00:20:08,840 --> 00:20:12,400 Speaker 3: we're talking about statehood for d C. If people are 346 00:20:12,440 --> 00:20:15,680 Speaker 3: concerned about the president being able to move the National 347 00:20:15,720 --> 00:20:18,400 Speaker 3: Guard into our city, the time to do that would 348 00:20:18,400 --> 00:20:20,679 Speaker 3: have been when the Congress had a bill that it 349 00:20:20,720 --> 00:20:24,080 Speaker 3: could have given control of the DC National Guard to 350 00:20:24,200 --> 00:20:28,800 Speaker 3: d C. So there are things that when a city 351 00:20:29,320 --> 00:20:32,320 Speaker 3: is not a state and not fully autonomous and doesn't 352 00:20:32,320 --> 00:20:44,080 Speaker 3: have senators, that the federal government can do. Yeah well yeahs. 353 00:20:46,119 --> 00:20:49,280 Speaker 1: And there's the mayor of d C once again calling 354 00:20:49,320 --> 00:20:53,320 Speaker 1: for statehood. This is certain things that can be done 355 00:20:54,040 --> 00:20:56,840 Speaker 1: calling for statehood. That was the takeaway from that last 356 00:20:56,880 --> 00:20:59,800 Speaker 1: comment right there. Look, I'm going to tell you something 357 00:21:00,040 --> 00:21:02,159 Speaker 1: and then after the break, I'm gonna bring in my 358 00:21:02,240 --> 00:21:08,880 Speaker 1: good friend, Lieutenant Colonel Allen West In twenty twenty three, Washington, 359 00:21:09,000 --> 00:21:12,160 Speaker 1: d C ranked among the very highest in the United 360 00:21:12,200 --> 00:21:14,640 Speaker 1: States for violent crime, particularly homicides. 361 00:21:14,720 --> 00:21:16,080 Speaker 2: In fact, they were tied. 362 00:21:16,680 --> 00:21:20,720 Speaker 1: With Detroit to be in third place, behind New Orleans 363 00:21:20,760 --> 00:21:25,919 Speaker 1: and Saint Louis. The violent crime rate was incredibly high 364 00:21:26,040 --> 00:21:28,959 Speaker 1: and placed DC in the top ten for violent crimes. 365 00:21:28,960 --> 00:21:33,399 Speaker 1: This is twenty twenty three, eighteen months ago. They claim 366 00:21:33,520 --> 00:21:37,760 Speaker 1: now that DC is the fiftieth most violent city in America. 367 00:21:37,920 --> 00:21:42,960 Speaker 1: Just the most remarkable turn of events and turnaround. No, 368 00:21:43,040 --> 00:21:45,959 Speaker 1: I don't believe it. No, I don't think there's been 369 00:21:46,000 --> 00:21:49,199 Speaker 1: some remarkable drop of violent crime. What I believe is 370 00:21:49,240 --> 00:21:54,360 Speaker 1: most likely is there's been a failure to report violent crimes. 371 00:21:54,440 --> 00:21:58,800 Speaker 1: We've seen uber drivers murdered in the streets, Jewish people 372 00:21:58,880 --> 00:22:02,360 Speaker 1: murdered in the streets. Do I think DC is suddenly 373 00:22:02,400 --> 00:22:04,280 Speaker 1: this remarkably safe? 374 00:22:04,280 --> 00:22:05,679 Speaker 2: Please? No, I'm sorry, I do not. 375 00:22:05,960 --> 00:22:08,720 Speaker 1: We'll talk to Lieutenant Colonel Allen West. As I mentioned earlier, 376 00:22:08,920 --> 00:22:13,000 Speaker 1: crime and homelessness running rampant there. Donald Trump's taking over 377 00:22:13,080 --> 00:22:16,120 Speaker 1: for a reason. We'll have that next on America's voice line. 378 00:22:27,040 --> 00:22:32,280 Speaker 1: All right, So I'm reading through the reported crime trends 379 00:22:32,320 --> 00:22:36,160 Speaker 1: of Washington, d C. Twenty twenty three through halfway through 380 00:22:36,160 --> 00:22:42,000 Speaker 1: this year twenty twenty five. In twenty twenty three, Washington 381 00:22:42,040 --> 00:22:44,160 Speaker 1: was raised as the third most violent, maybe the fourth 382 00:22:44,240 --> 00:22:46,680 Speaker 1: most violence city in America, depending on who you looked at, 383 00:22:46,760 --> 00:22:48,719 Speaker 1: behind Saint Louis and New Orleans. 384 00:22:48,760 --> 00:22:53,960 Speaker 2: That's it, murder assault in all of the above. 385 00:22:55,040 --> 00:22:57,800 Speaker 1: DC had two hundred and seventy four homicides in twenty 386 00:22:57,920 --> 00:23:00,840 Speaker 1: twenty three, of rate of thirty eight point nine thirty 387 00:23:00,920 --> 00:23:05,760 Speaker 1: nine per one hundred thousand, a remarkable deal. Violent crime 388 00:23:05,840 --> 00:23:07,800 Speaker 1: was a ten point four to seven, also among the 389 00:23:07,880 --> 00:23:11,080 Speaker 1: very highest in the United States, driven by a spike 390 00:23:11,160 --> 00:23:13,919 Speaker 1: in homicides up thirty nine percent from twenty twenty two. 391 00:23:13,960 --> 00:23:17,680 Speaker 1: But all of a sudden, they say, in twenty twenty five, miraculously, 392 00:23:19,359 --> 00:23:23,680 Speaker 1: DC ranks fiftieth for violent crime. It's just a miracle. 393 00:23:25,200 --> 00:23:27,959 Speaker 1: It's just a miracle. Joining me now, Lieutenant Colonel Allen West. 394 00:23:28,720 --> 00:23:33,200 Speaker 1: The only miracle here, Colonel, would be fudging the numbers. 395 00:23:34,119 --> 00:23:36,720 Speaker 1: There's no way I believe that they've fallen from third 396 00:23:36,760 --> 00:23:41,000 Speaker 1: to fiftieth in less than eighteen months time. I'm sorry, 397 00:23:41,000 --> 00:23:43,199 Speaker 1: that's bs and what Donald Trump is doing is the 398 00:23:43,240 --> 00:23:43,520 Speaker 1: right thing. 399 00:23:43,560 --> 00:23:45,159 Speaker 2: I spent a lot of time in DC. I'll be 400 00:23:45,200 --> 00:23:46,159 Speaker 2: back there next week. 401 00:23:47,320 --> 00:23:49,640 Speaker 1: There's a fair amount of Look, we see uber drivers 402 00:23:49,680 --> 00:23:53,040 Speaker 1: get murdered by teenagers. We see Jewish folks get gunned 403 00:23:53,080 --> 00:23:57,000 Speaker 1: down for being Jewish outside you know, gatherings. We see 404 00:23:57,040 --> 00:23:59,600 Speaker 1: all sorts of violence in the streets. We saw the 405 00:23:59,680 --> 00:24:03,080 Speaker 1: dough kid just get pummeled, almost beaten to death, and 406 00:24:03,160 --> 00:24:05,320 Speaker 1: it goes on and on and on the idea that 407 00:24:05,359 --> 00:24:09,760 Speaker 1: somehow DC has fallen from third to fiftieth. I'm sorry, 408 00:24:10,320 --> 00:24:11,879 Speaker 1: color me a skeptic today. 409 00:24:11,680 --> 00:24:14,760 Speaker 13: So nice to see you your thoughts. It's good to 410 00:24:14,800 --> 00:24:16,720 Speaker 13: be with you. I'm right there with you as a 411 00:24:16,720 --> 00:24:20,880 Speaker 13: skeptic from correct. DC has already had one hundred homicides 412 00:24:20,920 --> 00:24:25,440 Speaker 13: in this year, so they're on path to definitely make 413 00:24:25,440 --> 00:24:27,400 Speaker 13: it to two hundred again. So I find it hard 414 00:24:27,400 --> 00:24:31,160 Speaker 13: to believe that they would be the fiftieth most violent city. 415 00:24:31,760 --> 00:24:34,160 Speaker 13: And I go up to d C quite often as well, 416 00:24:34,200 --> 00:24:36,679 Speaker 13: and I have known some women who are going up 417 00:24:36,720 --> 00:24:40,040 Speaker 13: there on you know, Capitol Hill lobbying time, and they've 418 00:24:40,080 --> 00:24:43,800 Speaker 13: been followed back into their hotel rooms, not hotel rooms, 419 00:24:43,800 --> 00:24:46,320 Speaker 13: but into their hotel lobbies by homeless individuals. 420 00:24:46,640 --> 00:24:48,000 Speaker 2: This is a failure of leadership. 421 00:24:48,000 --> 00:24:50,960 Speaker 13: When you looked at Muriel Bowser and you looked at 422 00:24:51,200 --> 00:24:53,439 Speaker 13: you know, the DC City Council up there, they are 423 00:24:53,480 --> 00:24:57,080 Speaker 13: passing laws that are enabling criminals to have the advantage 424 00:24:57,359 --> 00:25:00,600 Speaker 13: over legal, law abiding citizens. And when you talk about 425 00:25:00,880 --> 00:25:04,320 Speaker 13: everything dropping as far as crime, that does not appear 426 00:25:04,359 --> 00:25:06,000 Speaker 13: to be the case when you talk to a victim 427 00:25:06,000 --> 00:25:08,480 Speaker 13: of the crime. And I found it very interesting that 428 00:25:08,600 --> 00:25:11,200 Speaker 13: you had the police chief and that briefing talk about 429 00:25:11,320 --> 00:25:15,119 Speaker 13: spikes in their crime, but yet you had Mirror Bowels 430 00:25:15,119 --> 00:25:17,280 Speaker 13: to come back and say they have not been any spikes. 431 00:25:17,280 --> 00:25:19,960 Speaker 13: So obviously she and the police chief are not on 432 00:25:19,960 --> 00:25:20,879 Speaker 13: the same sheet of music. 433 00:25:22,520 --> 00:25:23,399 Speaker 2: They're certainly not. 434 00:25:23,720 --> 00:25:28,680 Speaker 1: Now we're about seven months, seven and a half months 435 00:25:28,680 --> 00:25:31,360 Speaker 1: into the year. They've had one hundred homicides in DC. 436 00:25:31,800 --> 00:25:35,120 Speaker 1: They had one hundred and ninety in twenty twenty four. 437 00:25:35,119 --> 00:25:37,080 Speaker 1: They did have a worst year in twenty three. But 438 00:25:37,119 --> 00:25:38,679 Speaker 1: I'm going to come back to the fact that I 439 00:25:38,720 --> 00:25:41,480 Speaker 1: believe they're cooking the books because you're on part of 440 00:25:41,480 --> 00:25:45,000 Speaker 1: have one hundred and ninety homicides again, this year doesn't 441 00:25:45,040 --> 00:25:47,200 Speaker 1: drop you anywhere out of the top ten, keeps you 442 00:25:47,320 --> 00:25:51,920 Speaker 1: right in the top ten. Look, I agree with Donald 443 00:25:51,920 --> 00:25:57,000 Speaker 1: Trump on this look Washington. She should be a postcard 444 00:25:57,040 --> 00:25:57,680 Speaker 1: for America. 445 00:25:58,800 --> 00:26:01,920 Speaker 2: It should be not just the monuments and the museums 446 00:26:02,480 --> 00:26:02,880 Speaker 2: and the. 447 00:26:02,840 --> 00:26:04,960 Speaker 1: Historical places and the Capitol. 448 00:26:04,640 --> 00:26:05,439 Speaker 2: And the White House. 449 00:26:05,840 --> 00:26:08,320 Speaker 1: You shouldn't have homeless people camped on the streets, which 450 00:26:08,320 --> 00:26:11,479 Speaker 1: I've seen there every time I'm there. You shouldn't have 451 00:26:11,560 --> 00:26:14,399 Speaker 1: prostitutes walking down the street two blocks from the White 452 00:26:14,720 --> 00:26:17,440 Speaker 1: from the Capitol in the White House, which I've seen there. 453 00:26:18,960 --> 00:26:22,479 Speaker 1: Clean up your act, you know, and I'm okay with this. 454 00:26:22,640 --> 00:26:23,320 Speaker 2: Clean it up. 455 00:26:24,480 --> 00:26:28,240 Speaker 1: Give the homeless people a chance to find a way 456 00:26:28,280 --> 00:26:30,639 Speaker 1: to get on their feet elsewhere, and take the criminals 457 00:26:30,800 --> 00:26:33,720 Speaker 1: and put them where they belong, which is where in jail. 458 00:26:34,960 --> 00:26:36,520 Speaker 2: I should agree with this. 459 00:26:37,160 --> 00:26:39,679 Speaker 13: No, America will be fine with that, as well as 460 00:26:39,720 --> 00:26:42,240 Speaker 13: the people that are visiting our nation's capital will be 461 00:26:42,280 --> 00:26:44,320 Speaker 13: fine with that. They don't want to come to our 462 00:26:44,400 --> 00:26:47,320 Speaker 13: nation's capital and worry about being the victim of some 463 00:26:47,520 --> 00:26:50,119 Speaker 13: violent crime. And again, when you look at some of 464 00:26:50,160 --> 00:26:52,119 Speaker 13: the policies, the laws that have been passed by this 465 00:26:52,200 --> 00:26:55,160 Speaker 13: city council, you know, these young teenagers that are going 466 00:26:55,200 --> 00:26:57,480 Speaker 13: out carjacking and things of this nature, they need to 467 00:26:57,560 --> 00:27:00,000 Speaker 13: be treated like the criminals that they are. They should 468 00:27:00,119 --> 00:27:02,680 Speaker 13: not be allowed to be able to go right back 469 00:27:02,720 --> 00:27:05,000 Speaker 13: out onto the streets. This whole thing about no cash 470 00:27:05,040 --> 00:27:08,200 Speaker 13: bail that needs to be revoked. But when you look, Steve, 471 00:27:08,280 --> 00:27:10,480 Speaker 13: this is the consistency of the issue. When you look 472 00:27:10,480 --> 00:27:14,600 Speaker 13: at all of these major cities across the United States America, 473 00:27:14,640 --> 00:27:18,920 Speaker 13: they're controlled by the leftists, the progressive socialists, what have you. 474 00:27:19,040 --> 00:27:21,159 Speaker 13: New York City is going to fall into that trap. 475 00:27:21,240 --> 00:27:24,600 Speaker 13: Also once they alegt Zoram and DAMI, we need to 476 00:27:24,640 --> 00:27:27,280 Speaker 13: take a lesson. People need to start understanding it's about 477 00:27:27,320 --> 00:27:29,760 Speaker 13: the leadership. It's about the people that you are electing 478 00:27:29,800 --> 00:27:33,600 Speaker 13: to be in charge of your major large urban population centers. 479 00:27:35,080 --> 00:27:35,600 Speaker 2: That's right. 480 00:27:35,680 --> 00:27:40,119 Speaker 1: So I think America will be pleased to clean up 481 00:27:40,119 --> 00:27:43,520 Speaker 1: the Capital City. I think that DC has often, in fact, 482 00:27:43,640 --> 00:27:47,440 Speaker 1: almost my entire life, Colonel has been in the top 483 00:27:47,520 --> 00:27:51,240 Speaker 1: five for violent crime and homicide and drug dealing, and 484 00:27:51,280 --> 00:27:55,919 Speaker 1: the list goes on top five. It's about time we 485 00:27:55,960 --> 00:28:00,359 Speaker 1: clean up our act. Anybody should be satisfied with it 486 00:28:00,400 --> 00:28:01,040 Speaker 1: being top five. 487 00:28:01,080 --> 00:28:02,680 Speaker 2: I'll let you get the last word here. 488 00:28:03,320 --> 00:28:06,480 Speaker 13: Well, the last word is Marion Barry too, a simple name. 489 00:28:06,560 --> 00:28:08,800 Speaker 13: I think if everybody remembers, if you have a mayor 490 00:28:09,040 --> 00:28:11,800 Speaker 13: that is out there doing drugs and hanging out with prostitutes. 491 00:28:11,840 --> 00:28:13,240 Speaker 2: What you get. 492 00:28:13,600 --> 00:28:15,080 Speaker 13: I had to do it. I had to go there, 493 00:28:15,119 --> 00:28:17,440 Speaker 13: just like you went there about JD. Prisker being kind 494 00:28:17,440 --> 00:28:18,440 Speaker 13: of large last week. 495 00:28:19,160 --> 00:28:23,120 Speaker 1: Well, well he is. He's not kind of large. He's immense. Anyhow, 496 00:28:23,240 --> 00:28:26,320 Speaker 1: I appreciate it, Marion Barry and and by the way, 497 00:28:26,920 --> 00:28:29,159 Speaker 1: they re elected him after all that, which is just 498 00:28:29,840 --> 00:28:31,359 Speaker 1: there you go, little American history. 499 00:28:31,400 --> 00:28:34,560 Speaker 2: Colonel God, blessure, thank you for being here. Thank you, 500 00:28:34,600 --> 00:28:38,760 Speaker 2: God be with you. We're truth teller, Steve. Yeah, absolutely, 501 00:28:38,840 --> 00:28:41,360 Speaker 2: my friend. Do enjoy him?

Can the Fed 504 00:28:47,320 --> 00:28:49,080 Speaker 1: take the right action the right time or are we 505 00:28:49,200 --> 00:28:52,440 Speaker 1: going to be looking at a potential economic slowdown?

More on that after the break. I 528 00:30:03,160 --> 00:30:07,760 Speaker 1: know it almost gave us whiplash. One of the most 529 00:30:07,800 --> 00:30:10,800 Speaker 1: shocking heel turns in regard to President Trump's circle had 530 00:30:10,800 --> 00:30:14,040 Speaker 1: to do with the sudden shift from former Attorney General 531 00:30:14,840 --> 00:30:15,560 Speaker 1: Bill Barr. 532 00:30:16,440 --> 00:30:18,960 Speaker 2: We all remember the raid on mar Lago and how it. 533 00:30:19,120 --> 00:30:22,720 Speaker 1: Was reported that President Trump had carelessly left classified documents 534 00:30:22,720 --> 00:30:25,480 Speaker 1: scattered around his property, and Barr was at the center 535 00:30:25,520 --> 00:30:28,560 Speaker 1: of it, being the first to come out and defend 536 00:30:28,560 --> 00:30:32,640 Speaker 1: the raid. While most of President Trump's base knew something 537 00:30:32,760 --> 00:30:36,480 Speaker 1: was fishy about the raid, it was Project Veritas who 538 00:30:36,480 --> 00:30:38,800 Speaker 1: broke the story and provided much needed background on how 539 00:30:38,840 --> 00:30:42,440 Speaker 1: the raid on mar Lago was orchestrated and an event 540 00:30:42,520 --> 00:30:46,440 Speaker 1: meant to undermine a political comeback from then upcoming presidential 541 00:30:46,480 --> 00:30:48,720 Speaker 1: cand of President Trump. And now part three of this 542 00:30:48,840 --> 00:30:52,000 Speaker 1: report has been teased and is expected to drop in 543 00:30:52,200 --> 00:30:55,320 Speaker 1: just a little while. Joining me now to discuss investigative 544 00:30:55,360 --> 00:30:57,960 Speaker 1: journalists and whistle blower for Project Veritas. 545 00:30:58,440 --> 00:31:01,280 Speaker 2: For Teresa Lalis Fortessia. 546 00:31:01,360 --> 00:31:05,200 Speaker 1: How good to have you here, all right, it's very telling. 547 00:31:06,320 --> 00:31:10,200 Speaker 1: Give me the thirty thousand foot view. What is your belief? 548 00:31:10,240 --> 00:31:12,760 Speaker 1: What was the true purpose behind the raid on mar 549 00:31:12,800 --> 00:31:15,440 Speaker 1: A Lago? A lot of speculation there. Some think that 550 00:31:16,040 --> 00:31:19,720 Speaker 1: maybe they were trying to find evidence of crossfire hurricane 551 00:31:19,720 --> 00:31:21,400 Speaker 1: that got away from They wanted to get rid of that. 552 00:31:21,720 --> 00:31:24,840 Speaker 1: They wanted to undermine President Trump, certainly, But what is 553 00:31:24,880 --> 00:31:27,840 Speaker 1: your belief what was the true motivating factor here? 554 00:31:29,040 --> 00:31:29,240 Speaker 3: Well? 555 00:31:29,400 --> 00:31:35,240 Speaker 15: My belief in basic what I saw it is political motivation. 556 00:31:35,400 --> 00:31:39,800 Speaker 15: They're trying to find something against Trump, and that's what 557 00:31:39,920 --> 00:31:44,040 Speaker 15: I heard from Bill Barr and from another people. So 558 00:31:44,360 --> 00:31:48,440 Speaker 15: I don't believe it was an honest thing. 559 00:31:51,400 --> 00:31:54,800 Speaker 1: So bring Bill Barr into this conversation. He was the 560 00:31:54,840 --> 00:31:57,760 Speaker 1: attorney general. He left after January the sixth, just before 561 00:31:57,760 --> 00:32:01,040 Speaker 1: Trump completed his first he turned tailor. 562 00:32:01,040 --> 00:32:03,280 Speaker 2: It was at the end of December, late in his administration. 563 00:32:03,360 --> 00:32:09,120 Speaker 1: Bill Barr left, is the point, and there were questions raised, 564 00:32:09,480 --> 00:32:13,240 Speaker 1: who was Bill Barr really working for Donald Trump himself 565 00:32:13,520 --> 00:32:14,240 Speaker 1: somebody else? 566 00:32:14,880 --> 00:32:17,280 Speaker 2: Your thoughts, Well, I would. 567 00:32:17,080 --> 00:32:20,320 Speaker 15: Like to be careful about what I say here about 568 00:32:20,320 --> 00:32:23,200 Speaker 15: this because I'm a work with Project Very Tas for 569 00:32:23,240 --> 00:32:25,920 Speaker 15: a few months now and they definitely release at some 570 00:32:26,080 --> 00:32:30,160 Speaker 15: point who is Bill Barr is working with. But I 571 00:32:30,200 --> 00:32:33,800 Speaker 15: can guarantee he never work in the behalf of American people. 572 00:32:36,040 --> 00:32:39,560 Speaker 1: Working for himself working for others. I mean, we're seeing 573 00:32:39,560 --> 00:32:43,959 Speaker 1: this all unfold now. Obviously we've seen the dots are 574 00:32:44,000 --> 00:32:48,680 Speaker 1: being connected. Hillary Clinton bought the Steele dossier. Fusion GPS, 575 00:32:48,680 --> 00:32:53,320 Speaker 1: along with Christopher Steel, built this whole idea. Barack Obama 576 00:32:53,480 --> 00:32:57,360 Speaker 1: was briefed down in July twenty sixteen. They knew what 577 00:32:57,400 --> 00:32:59,760 Speaker 1: was going on, they decided to ignore it. They just 578 00:33:00,000 --> 00:33:03,480 Speaker 1: afected Hillary to win, but when she didn't, they decided 579 00:33:03,480 --> 00:33:08,640 Speaker 1: to rededicate, to repurpose that entire narrative, that fairy tale, and. 580 00:33:08,600 --> 00:33:10,480 Speaker 2: On the ninth of December. 581 00:33:10,040 --> 00:33:12,720 Speaker 1: Twenty sixteen, crafted a plan to go after the present 582 00:33:12,720 --> 00:33:16,760 Speaker 1: that included everything that happened between that day and the 583 00:33:16,840 --> 00:33:18,960 Speaker 1: rate on mar A Lago. Now, in the end, mar 584 00:33:19,040 --> 00:33:23,640 Speaker 1: Lago didn't proved to be anything significant except the stain 585 00:33:23,840 --> 00:33:26,720 Speaker 1: on America, right, Yeah, is. 586 00:33:26,760 --> 00:33:29,800 Speaker 15: More about like a shame someone you know, like Heavier 587 00:33:29,880 --> 00:33:33,719 Speaker 15: House raised it's not nice. So of course was like 588 00:33:33,720 --> 00:33:36,320 Speaker 15: all the news and everything they can butt against him 589 00:33:36,520 --> 00:33:39,120 Speaker 15: was like more reputation attack. 590 00:33:41,720 --> 00:33:44,280 Speaker 1: So was that it just a smear's reputation? I mean 591 00:33:44,320 --> 00:33:46,280 Speaker 1: they did that every step of the way. The raid 592 00:33:46,360 --> 00:33:48,840 Speaker 1: on mar A Lago though, I mean those that Chicken 593 00:33:48,880 --> 00:33:51,920 Speaker 1: Noodle News and MSNBC and the rest, you know, reported 594 00:33:51,920 --> 00:33:54,400 Speaker 1: breathlessly on it, day after day, week after week. 595 00:33:54,440 --> 00:33:56,400 Speaker 2: Oh, the raid on mar A Lago. Yeah, it was 596 00:33:56,440 --> 00:34:00,120 Speaker 2: another big nothing, right, it was nothing. 597 00:34:00,200 --> 00:34:05,480 Speaker 15: I think like Bill Barr, he's always planning and make 598 00:34:05,600 --> 00:34:11,640 Speaker 15: sure Trump won WI again because the one that Trump 599 00:34:11,719 --> 00:34:14,520 Speaker 15: won and he worked with people who doesn't have the 600 00:34:14,600 --> 00:34:20,360 Speaker 15: same interesting of Trumpet winning. So they work together to 601 00:34:20,520 --> 00:34:24,240 Speaker 15: build all this against him because they thought would be. 602 00:34:24,160 --> 00:34:24,920 Speaker 2: A good shot. 603 00:34:26,600 --> 00:34:29,919 Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, it's weird to me, Patricia, sitting here 604 00:34:29,960 --> 00:34:34,600 Speaker 1: thinking about this. If memory serves. Just before the twenty 605 00:34:34,680 --> 00:34:37,520 Speaker 1: twenty four election, Bill Barr was on the record saying 606 00:34:37,560 --> 00:34:40,040 Speaker 1: he would vote for Donald Trump because he had no alternative. 607 00:34:40,120 --> 00:34:42,400 Speaker 1: So here's a guy that worked against at least he 608 00:34:42,440 --> 00:34:44,040 Speaker 1: said it in public. Whether it's true or not, I 609 00:34:44,040 --> 00:34:47,880 Speaker 1: couldn't tell you worked against Donald Trump, it seems behind 610 00:34:47,920 --> 00:34:51,200 Speaker 1: the scenes. Potentially made the comments about the raid being 611 00:34:52,040 --> 00:34:55,680 Speaker 1: proper out in public and then said he would vote 612 00:34:55,719 --> 00:35:00,600 Speaker 1: for Donald Trump because he had no alternative. Barr have 613 00:35:00,640 --> 00:35:02,440 Speaker 1: a moral compass. 614 00:35:02,360 --> 00:35:03,360 Speaker 3: No, you. 615 00:35:03,520 --> 00:35:06,080 Speaker 15: Bar is just interesting in how much money he's making 616 00:35:06,719 --> 00:35:10,680 Speaker 15: and about the power he's holding.

There's two houses that happened recently 696 00:39:15,280 --> 00:39:16,920 Speaker 11: discovered that they are Narco. 697 00:39:16,680 --> 00:39:19,880 Speaker 14: Tunnel houses that they have been completely sealed and completely 698 00:39:19,920 --> 00:39:23,600 Speaker 14: close in collaboration with American authorities in the Mexican authorities. 699 00:39:23,800 --> 00:39:29,600 Speaker 2: Seed all right, So I had been reading that you 700 00:39:29,640 --> 00:39:30,680 Speaker 2: were going to go into. 701 00:39:31,960 --> 00:39:35,400 Speaker 1: To look at some some tunnels that the cartels have 702 00:39:35,480 --> 00:39:38,640 Speaker 1: been involved with, big tunnels. You and Ben bur Kwam, 703 00:39:38,719 --> 00:39:40,759 Speaker 1: you know, your partner in crime and some of this, 704 00:39:41,040 --> 00:39:42,960 Speaker 1: and and two of the guys that have put yourselves 705 00:39:43,040 --> 00:39:44,840 Speaker 1: right on the front line time and time again. 706 00:39:45,520 --> 00:39:48,120 Speaker 2: But something that's been called off. What happened? 707 00:39:48,160 --> 00:39:49,560 Speaker 1: I thought you were gonna have access to see some 708 00:39:49,600 --> 00:39:52,839 Speaker 1: of these tunnels. It's a big story. We've seen them before. 709 00:39:52,880 --> 00:39:54,400 Speaker 1: But apparently this was pretty elaborate. 710 00:39:54,719 --> 00:39:55,960 Speaker 2: What happened? What changed? 711 00:39:56,880 --> 00:40:00,759 Speaker 14: Well, it's the situation with the afford and you're trying 712 00:40:00,760 --> 00:40:02,360 Speaker 14: to let us in to see if we can get 713 00:40:02,640 --> 00:40:03,799 Speaker 14: access into one of them. 714 00:40:03,800 --> 00:40:06,839 Speaker 11: The most recently that it was discovered. It was discovered not. 715 00:40:06,800 --> 00:40:09,399 Speaker 14: Too far away from this particular location, and it. 716 00:40:09,320 --> 00:40:12,480 Speaker 11: Was connected underneath to our warehouse and Okai Mesa. It 717 00:40:12,520 --> 00:40:15,640 Speaker 11: was found particularly at first by American authorities. They sounded 718 00:40:15,640 --> 00:40:18,200 Speaker 11: the whistle to the Mexican authorities for them later on 719 00:40:18,480 --> 00:40:21,960 Speaker 11: to be sealed at halfway into the tunnels into a 720 00:40:22,000 --> 00:40:23,680 Speaker 11: tunnel house that it was where. 721 00:40:23,480 --> 00:40:25,799 Speaker 14: It was discovered on this side. So we're trying to 722 00:40:25,840 --> 00:40:28,879 Speaker 14: get that access. You know, it's just difficult to get 723 00:40:28,880 --> 00:40:31,200 Speaker 14: the access with the Mexican authorities. You had to be 724 00:40:31,520 --> 00:40:33,719 Speaker 14: just consistent and asking them if they're going to give 725 00:40:33,719 --> 00:40:35,600 Speaker 14: you access. You already told us that they were going 726 00:40:35,680 --> 00:40:37,319 Speaker 14: to give us in the next incoming day. So let's 727 00:40:37,400 --> 00:40:39,239 Speaker 14: just wait for that seed for us to show to 728 00:40:39,280 --> 00:40:41,840 Speaker 14: the American public how these tunnels are being made to 729 00:40:41,920 --> 00:40:45,040 Speaker 14: cross you know, illegal substances and also illegal microans into 730 00:40:45,040 --> 00:40:46,080 Speaker 14: the United States of America. 731 00:40:47,360 --> 00:40:50,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, let's talk about this though. Let's talk about the 732 00:40:50,480 --> 00:40:52,920 Speaker 1: fact that they have reduced the number of people crossing 733 00:40:52,960 --> 00:40:55,880 Speaker 1: the border dramatically. I mean, that's happened, right, and with 734 00:40:56,040 --> 00:40:58,440 Speaker 1: that you get big bus like this on the border. 735 00:40:59,200 --> 00:41:01,720 Speaker 1: My understanding is the number of federal deaths in America 736 00:41:01,719 --> 00:41:04,840 Speaker 1: has actually declined this year. I'm looking into that, but 737 00:41:04,920 --> 00:41:07,080 Speaker 1: you have to think that maybe there is a cause 738 00:41:07,120 --> 00:41:09,320 Speaker 1: and effect here. If less drugs make it over the border, 739 00:41:09,360 --> 00:41:12,960 Speaker 1: whether it's hundreds of sacks of cocaine or methamphetamines or 740 00:41:13,400 --> 00:41:15,560 Speaker 1: fed of whatever it is, if. 741 00:41:15,480 --> 00:41:17,960 Speaker 2: It doesn't make it into the country. People are safer, 742 00:41:18,600 --> 00:41:18,960 Speaker 2: aren't they. 743 00:41:20,320 --> 00:41:24,120 Speaker 14: Yes, And we were there on the closing campaign of 744 00:41:24,200 --> 00:41:26,160 Speaker 14: the current president cloud in him and one of the 745 00:41:26,239 --> 00:41:29,240 Speaker 14: things that she said was that she wanted to collaborate 746 00:41:29,320 --> 00:41:31,880 Speaker 14: with the United States of America so they can prevent 747 00:41:32,120 --> 00:41:34,080 Speaker 14: deaths inside of the United. 748 00:41:33,840 --> 00:41:35,040 Speaker 2: States of America to the youth. 749 00:41:35,320 --> 00:41:38,640 Speaker 14: That tells you the large you know, consequence of this 750 00:41:39,080 --> 00:41:42,759 Speaker 14: travel of this methamphetamines, these fentanyls into to the United 751 00:41:42,800 --> 00:41:46,080 Speaker 14: States territory. So it is causing a large effects see, 752 00:41:46,120 --> 00:41:48,880 Speaker 14: but also it's saving a lot of lives. Most important 753 00:41:48,920 --> 00:41:51,000 Speaker 14: thing see that I look at this is if the 754 00:41:51,040 --> 00:41:54,440 Speaker 14: American government is pushing the Mexican government to fight the corruption, 755 00:41:54,560 --> 00:41:57,160 Speaker 14: to fight the cartels, and to ultimately let you know, 756 00:41:57,360 --> 00:41:59,560 Speaker 14: crack down and level down the level you know, the 757 00:41:59,600 --> 00:42:03,120 Speaker 14: of extreme violence that Mechical was living with, you know, 758 00:42:03,760 --> 00:42:05,960 Speaker 14: consistent extortion and consistent kidnapping. 759 00:42:06,280 --> 00:42:09,239 Speaker 11: This has also decreased at the Mexican government. It is 760 00:42:09,280 --> 00:42:13,600 Speaker 11: combating that, cracking down laboratories and cracking down these huge, 761 00:42:13,920 --> 00:42:17,400 Speaker 11: huge tons of trafficking of drug same side of this 762 00:42:17,520 --> 00:42:19,040 Speaker 11: particular commercial line steam. 763 00:42:20,400 --> 00:42:23,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, and you got to tip your hat 764 00:42:24,400 --> 00:42:26,480 Speaker 1: the other part of the equation, of course, is Donald 765 00:42:26,480 --> 00:42:29,080 Speaker 1: Trump discussing the possibility of the US military getting involved 766 00:42:29,120 --> 00:42:31,640 Speaker 1: to take on the cartels.
