It is the government that's created the high 10 00:00:31,880 --> 00:00:36,479 Speaker 2: gas prices because of all their taxes and regulations, and 11 00:00:36,560 --> 00:00:42,279 Speaker 2: the oil companies have not engaged widespread price gouging or profiteering. 12 00:00:43,560 --> 00:00:46,559 Speaker 2: We're at four dollars and ninety five cents today in 13 00:00:46,560 --> 00:00:50,000 Speaker 2: California for gas, and in Mississippi it's two seventy five 14 00:00:50,880 --> 00:00:53,280 Speaker 2: and many other states are under three dollars as well, 15 00:00:54,400 --> 00:00:57,720 Speaker 2: and it's just outrageous and they lie to you until 16 00:00:57,760 --> 00:01:02,880 Speaker 2: you it's the oil companies a complete lie. I want 17 00:01:02,920 --> 00:01:06,960 Speaker 2: to see Gavin Newsom run on the big lie. We'll 18 00:01:07,440 --> 00:01:09,080 Speaker 2: be on top of this. We're not going to let 19 00:01:09,120 --> 00:01:14,440 Speaker 2: that go because there's another sixty five cent increase coming Anyway, 20 00:01:14,480 --> 00:01:17,600 Speaker 2: two o'clock on the podcast, you should listen to that 21 00:01:18,280 --> 00:01:22,759 Speaker 2: Supreme Court has said Donald Trump can use the Alien 22 00:01:22,880 --> 00:01:30,720 Speaker 2: Enemies Act of seventeen ninety eight to deport Venezuelan criminal gangsters. 23 00:01:30,800 --> 00:01:35,120 Speaker 2: These these violent criminals that were released from Venezuelan prisons 24 00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:38,600 Speaker 2: Trendy Iragua and they can be sent to El Salvador. 25 00:01:40,440 --> 00:01:43,480 Speaker 2: This is a big win for Trump. And we are 26 00:01:43,480 --> 00:01:45,840 Speaker 2: now going to talk to Art Arthur from the Center 27 00:01:45,880 --> 00:01:47,160 Speaker 2: for Immigration Studies. 28 00:01:48,120 --> 00:01:50,880 Speaker 1: Art, welcome again. How are you, John. 29 00:01:50,920 --> 00:01:53,920 Speaker 3: I'm doing great and sorry to hear betch gas prices 30 00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:56,560 Speaker 3: out here in North Carolina. We're about two dollars and 31 00:01:56,600 --> 00:01:58,360 Speaker 3: eighty cents, and life is. 32 00:01:58,320 --> 00:01:59,360 Speaker 1: Good to eighty. 33 00:01:59,440 --> 00:01:59,680 Speaker 3: Yeah. 34 00:01:59,680 --> 00:02:02,160 Speaker 2: I have a son that lives in North Carolina right now, 35 00:02:02,840 --> 00:02:06,040 Speaker 2: so I know how good life is there two dollars. 36 00:02:06,160 --> 00:02:11,920 Speaker 2: In fact, I'm going to North Carolina this weekend. 37 00:02:10,040 --> 00:02:11,359 Speaker 1: To seep I. 38 00:02:11,680 --> 00:02:14,440 Speaker 3: We'll play a little golf, maybe hang out on the. 39 00:02:14,360 --> 00:02:14,959 Speaker 1: Course for a while. 40 00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:16,919 Speaker 2: I want to find some way to smuggle gas back 41 00:02:16,960 --> 00:02:18,080 Speaker 2: to California. 42 00:02:18,200 --> 00:02:19,359 Speaker 1: I don't know if that's feasible. 43 00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:22,080 Speaker 2: All right, this is a big deal because people have 44 00:02:22,200 --> 00:02:26,080 Speaker 2: been squealing for weeks and weeks after Trump used the 45 00:02:26,160 --> 00:02:30,920 Speaker 2: Alien Enemies Act of seventeen ninety eight to deport Trendy 46 00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:34,880 Speaker 2: Iragua Venezuelan gang members to a prison in al Salvador. 47 00:02:34,880 --> 00:02:37,480 Speaker 2: I think most people who follow the news are familiar 48 00:02:37,520 --> 00:02:40,240 Speaker 2: with this story. What did the Supreme Court say? 49 00:02:41,800 --> 00:02:46,600 Speaker 3: So? The Supreme Court said that a challenge to the 50 00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:52,239 Speaker 3: deportation of Trendy Iragua members that the Trump administration attempted 51 00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:54,760 Speaker 3: to implement and to a degree did implement under the 52 00:02:54,800 --> 00:03:00,800 Speaker 3: Alien Enemies Act, you should not be heard in the 53 00:03:00,840 --> 00:03:03,400 Speaker 3: District Court for the District to Columbia, which is the 54 00:03:03,440 --> 00:03:06,600 Speaker 3: seat of government, but instead it should be heard in 55 00:03:06,720 --> 00:03:10,720 Speaker 3: habeas cases individual habeas cases in the districts in which 56 00:03:10,760 --> 00:03:13,400 Speaker 3: those individuals are being held, and all of those individuals 57 00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:16,720 Speaker 3: are being held in South Texas, much more Trump friendly 58 00:03:16,840 --> 00:03:22,600 Speaker 3: jurisdictions for the cases, but more importantly, the proper venue 59 00:03:22,639 --> 00:03:26,239 Speaker 3: for individuals who are facing removal and being detained while 60 00:03:26,280 --> 00:03:29,560 Speaker 3: facing removal from the United States under the Alien Enemies Act. 61 00:03:29,720 --> 00:03:33,040 Speaker 3: It was a sharp rebuke to Chief Judge James Boberg 62 00:03:33,600 --> 00:03:36,440 Speaker 3: of the US District Court, the all powerful US District 63 00:03:36,480 --> 00:03:40,360 Speaker 3: Court for the District to Columbia. But Judge Boseburg doesn't 64 00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:44,960 Speaker 3: show much sign of backing down quite yet, even. 65 00:03:44,760 --> 00:03:46,400 Speaker 2: No Supreme Court issued its opinion. 66 00:03:47,760 --> 00:03:52,000 Speaker 3: Even though the Supreme Court issued its opinion. If you remember, 67 00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:54,800 Speaker 3: if we go back, there were flights that had taken 68 00:03:54,880 --> 00:04:00,080 Speaker 3: off while Judge Boseburg on a Saturday was considering a 69 00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:03,920 Speaker 3: motion by five plaintiffs to create a class for all 70 00:04:05,120 --> 00:04:08,000 Speaker 3: alleged Trende Ragua members who are facing removal under the 71 00:04:08,040 --> 00:04:10,480 Speaker 3: Alien Enemies Act. And you know, he ordered the planes 72 00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:12,760 Speaker 3: to be turned around, and he probably didn't have that authority, 73 00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:17,839 Speaker 3: but that didn't happen, and so there began a extended argument, 74 00:04:17,960 --> 00:04:21,920 Speaker 3: certainly in the d C Press, over you know, whether 75 00:04:22,640 --> 00:04:27,599 Speaker 3: Trump administration officials had acted in contempt of the judges order, 76 00:04:27,640 --> 00:04:34,080 Speaker 3: the judges still apparently considering those contempt actions. And he's 77 00:04:34,120 --> 00:04:37,200 Speaker 3: also you know, requesting breathing from some of the plaints 78 00:04:37,240 --> 00:04:41,720 Speaker 3: with respect to a injunction of the considering. So notwithstanding, again, 79 00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:44,279 Speaker 3: this is not anything I heard in the courts, things 80 00:04:44,279 --> 00:04:47,320 Speaker 3: that I've read online, but I'm so fascinated about apparently, 81 00:04:47,440 --> 00:04:49,280 Speaker 3: you know, he hasn't quite given up the ghost, but 82 00:04:49,320 --> 00:04:53,359 Speaker 3: the Justices has spoken this positively. The case isn't properly 83 00:04:53,800 --> 00:04:58,440 Speaker 3: venued in the District of Columbia. It's not. It can't 84 00:04:58,440 --> 00:05:01,359 Speaker 3: be considered under the Administrative Seizures Act. It can only 85 00:05:01,400 --> 00:05:03,880 Speaker 3: be considered under the Great Writ Habeas corpus. 86 00:05:04,080 --> 00:05:06,960 Speaker 2: So, So in the meantime, Trump can keep using this 87 00:05:07,080 --> 00:05:10,120 Speaker 2: act to deport these criminal aliens. 88 00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:14,760 Speaker 3: Yeah, absolutely so. But before it does that, it does 89 00:05:14,839 --> 00:05:17,600 Speaker 3: have to give those individuals, you know, notice that they're 90 00:05:17,640 --> 00:05:19,520 Speaker 3: going to be deported out of the Alien Enemies Act 91 00:05:19,560 --> 00:05:23,480 Speaker 3: and an opportunity to go before a district court judge 92 00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:26,919 Speaker 3: in Texas, not on DC, so that it can't have 93 00:05:27,040 --> 00:05:31,120 Speaker 3: any challenges to the detention, you know, potentially to their 94 00:05:31,200 --> 00:05:34,120 Speaker 3: status as Trended Aragua members, and possibly even to the 95 00:05:34,160 --> 00:05:37,400 Speaker 3: constitutionality of the president's action. I think the President's on 96 00:05:37,560 --> 00:05:42,000 Speaker 3: pretty good constitutional grounds. And honestly, John, it's funny when 97 00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:44,760 Speaker 3: we talk about Trendy Aragua because you know, if I 98 00:05:44,839 --> 00:05:46,599 Speaker 3: ask you, or ask most people on the street, the 99 00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:51,200 Speaker 3: first thing you would say is apartment complexes in Aurora, Colorado. 100 00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:51,760 Speaker 1: Yeah. 101 00:05:51,839 --> 00:05:54,080 Speaker 3: But you know, if you pull back the lens a 102 00:05:54,160 --> 00:05:59,000 Speaker 3: little bit, trend Aragua is a majorminal organization. You know, 103 00:05:59,040 --> 00:06:02,240 Speaker 3: I would compare it to the mafia. But honestly, it engages 104 00:06:02,320 --> 00:06:05,080 Speaker 3: in a lot more political crime than the mafia does. 105 00:06:05,600 --> 00:06:09,919 Speaker 3: They've been accused of dressing up as Chilean police officers, 106 00:06:10,040 --> 00:06:15,640 Speaker 3: kidnapping a Venezuelan oppositionist in Santiago, and murdering that individual. 107 00:06:16,120 --> 00:06:18,800 Speaker 3: And if we go back to the Biden administration, not 108 00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:22,000 Speaker 3: so many months ago, the Department of State put a 109 00:06:22,040 --> 00:06:24,880 Speaker 3: twelve million dollar bounty on the heads of the three 110 00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:28,359 Speaker 3: major leaders of Trende Aragua, not because of anything that 111 00:06:28,400 --> 00:06:30,360 Speaker 3: happened in the United States, not because of a roar 112 00:06:30,520 --> 00:06:33,320 Speaker 3: or any other town that these people have come to, 113 00:06:33,760 --> 00:06:36,159 Speaker 3: but because of the violence and the crime that they're 114 00:06:36,160 --> 00:06:41,400 Speaker 3: wreaking in Colombia, neighbored to Venezuela, in a constant rival 115 00:06:41,480 --> 00:06:44,880 Speaker 3: of the Maduro government. So you know, this is a 116 00:06:44,920 --> 00:06:51,159 Speaker 3: really sophisticated operation. If you read the President's presidential proclamation 117 00:06:51,360 --> 00:06:55,680 Speaker 3: where he declares Trende Aragua to be a terrorist organization 118 00:06:55,920 --> 00:06:59,680 Speaker 3: subject to removal under the Alien Enemies Act, you really 119 00:07:00,240 --> 00:07:04,640 Speaker 3: start to understand why exactly the President says that this 120 00:07:04,839 --> 00:07:08,919 Speaker 3: organization poses a danger not just to communities in the 121 00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:11,400 Speaker 3: United States and to our streets, but to the very 122 00:07:11,560 --> 00:07:15,200 Speaker 3: United States itself. Here's one thing that he says quote 123 00:07:15,400 --> 00:07:18,760 Speaker 3: PDA Trende Aragua is closely aligned with and indeed has 124 00:07:18,800 --> 00:07:24,480 Speaker 3: infiltrated the Maduro regime, including its military and law enforcement apparatus, 125 00:07:24,520 --> 00:07:28,920 Speaker 3: and supports the Maduro regime's goal of destabilizing democratic nations 126 00:07:28,920 --> 00:07:32,120 Speaker 3: from the Americas, including the United States. This isn't a 127 00:07:32,120 --> 00:07:34,960 Speaker 3: bunch of guys running around with ar fifteens in apartment building. 128 00:07:35,280 --> 00:07:39,200 Speaker 3: This is a serious criminal organization. And that's not an overstatem, 129 00:07:39,200 --> 00:07:42,120 Speaker 3: and it's just one that's underreported in the United States. 130 00:07:41,960 --> 00:07:47,160 Speaker 2: That was unleashed by the government of a hostile nation. 131 00:07:48,840 --> 00:07:51,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, not only a hostile nation, but a nation that 132 00:07:51,760 --> 00:07:55,680 Speaker 3: hates us, a nation whose leader we claim is a 133 00:07:55,800 --> 00:08:00,120 Speaker 3: dictator who sees power. You know, after a rig the 134 00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:03,520 Speaker 3: election still went against him. So yeah, this isn't you know, 135 00:08:03,680 --> 00:08:08,000 Speaker 3: this is an intractable enemy of the United States. But nonetheless, 136 00:08:08,400 --> 00:08:11,720 Speaker 3: the Biden administration still allowed major oil companies, back to 137 00:08:11,800 --> 00:08:14,920 Speaker 3: our earlier conversation, to continue to buy oil and to 138 00:08:14,960 --> 00:08:18,240 Speaker 3: continue to prop up that regime. Maduro can't have it 139 00:08:18,280 --> 00:08:20,160 Speaker 3: both ways. He's either going to join the Community of 140 00:08:20,280 --> 00:08:24,240 Speaker 3: Nations and put a leash on the hounds that are 141 00:08:24,320 --> 00:08:27,040 Speaker 3: trend Aragua or he's going to have to go his 142 00:08:27,080 --> 00:08:29,440 Speaker 3: own way, and that'll mean more poverty and more heartbreak 143 00:08:29,440 --> 00:08:30,520 Speaker 3: for the people of Venezuela. 144 00:08:30,600 --> 00:08:34,680 Speaker 2: Is there any legal problem that Trump sent these criminals 145 00:08:34,760 --> 00:08:41,640 Speaker 2: to El Salvador to that Megamax prison. Does that violate 146 00:08:41,800 --> 00:08:43,400 Speaker 2: any rights that they have. 147 00:08:43,480 --> 00:08:44,000 Speaker 1: In any way? 148 00:08:45,200 --> 00:08:47,640 Speaker 3: It's funny because you know, most people, when you talk 149 00:08:47,679 --> 00:08:51,120 Speaker 3: about deportation, we send you back home. But the Immigration 150 00:08:51,200 --> 00:08:54,360 Speaker 3: and Nationality Act actually permits the government to send an 151 00:08:54,440 --> 00:08:58,120 Speaker 3: individual to any country that will take them. Now, most 152 00:08:58,160 --> 00:09:02,199 Speaker 3: countries won't take criminals, but the naive Bukele of El 153 00:09:02,320 --> 00:09:05,520 Speaker 3: Salvador has a different take on the whole thing. He runs, 154 00:09:05,640 --> 00:09:11,040 Speaker 3: you know, very large, spacious, well lighted prisons and he's 155 00:09:11,080 --> 00:09:15,960 Speaker 3: willing to accept American funding to you know, house individuals there. 156 00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:19,840 Speaker 3: But again, you know, remember that Trump, the Trump administration 157 00:09:19,960 --> 00:09:23,760 Speaker 3: invoked the State Secrets Act when Judge Bosberg wanted, you know, 158 00:09:23,840 --> 00:09:27,400 Speaker 3: information about these flights and where they went. I'm not 159 00:09:27,480 --> 00:09:29,960 Speaker 3: saying that this is true, and it's pure speculation, but 160 00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:32,719 Speaker 3: I wouldn't be surprised. We don't have intelligence from our 161 00:09:32,760 --> 00:09:37,040 Speaker 3: foreign partners in the Americas, including from El Salvador, and 162 00:09:37,120 --> 00:09:40,760 Speaker 3: that many of those countries don't want those trend Aragua 163 00:09:40,880 --> 00:09:44,120 Speaker 3: leaders to be released back to Venezuela where they're going 164 00:09:44,160 --> 00:09:47,839 Speaker 3: to continue to prey upon populations in Bolivia and Chile 165 00:09:48,080 --> 00:09:52,400 Speaker 3: and Colombia. They want them locked up in Seacot, which 166 00:09:52,440 --> 00:09:55,400 Speaker 3: is the mega prison in El Salvador. 167 00:09:55,800 --> 00:09:58,480 Speaker 2: All right, thank you very much for coming on. Arthur 168 00:09:58,520 --> 00:10:00,840 Speaker 2: from the Center for Immigration staff. He's Trump winning a 169 00:10:00,840 --> 00:10:04,760 Speaker 2: big round in court. He can keep sending legal alien 170 00:10:04,880 --> 00:10:10,040 Speaker 2: criminal gang members from Venezuela to a president in El 171 00:10:10,120 --> 00:10:13,720 Speaker 2: Salvador and deport them to that prison that is still 172 00:10:13,760 --> 00:10:16,240 Speaker 2: on for now.

They're the 375 00:21:49,359 --> 00:21:54,679 Speaker 2: ones doing the cleanup, not Karen Bassett's administration.

But we're 406 00:23:31,720 --> 00:23:35,000 Speaker 5: trying to reduce and wave fees so that people can 407 00:23:35,080 --> 00:23:37,639 Speaker 5: get the law and running and building. And you know, 408 00:23:37,800 --> 00:23:41,520 Speaker 5: as mayor, I only represent the Palisades. I don't represent 409 00:23:41,560 --> 00:23:45,720 Speaker 5: Altadena or Malibu, and so that is my sole focus. 410 00:23:45,760 --> 00:23:49,480 Speaker 5: But I work in strong collaboration with Catherine Barger, who 411 00:23:49,560 --> 00:23:53,000 Speaker 5: is the chair of the County Board of Supervisors.

This is like 417 00:24:11,760 --> 00:24:14,800 Speaker 2: Behen Gavin Newsom cleaned up San Francisco for the Chinese premiere. 418 00:24:16,240 --> 00:24:19,120 Speaker 2: How come they do the big cleanup when there's an 419 00:24:19,119 --> 00:24:23,439 Speaker 2: outside event and international visitors are arriving. But for us, 420 00:24:23,920 --> 00:24:26,680 Speaker 2: for every day, we have to drive twelve different places 421 00:24:26,720 --> 00:24:29,040 Speaker 2: to get twelve different permits to build a house, and 422 00:24:29,080 --> 00:24:31,240 Speaker 2: then we've got to step over all the homeless people 423 00:24:31,920 --> 00:24:36,200 Speaker 2: and play the play Poop Hop Scotch, jump over the needles. 424 00:24:36,800 --> 00:24:38,960 Speaker 2: But with the World Cup coming, oh, everything's gonna be 425 00:24:39,000 --> 00:24:42,200 Speaker 2: cleaned up. I hate that they hold us in such contempt, 426 00:24:43,320 --> 00:24:44,680 Speaker 2: and we let them hold us. 427 00:24:44,560 --> 00:24:47,520 Speaker 1: In contempt and treat us this way.
