Wow, that found out, 54 00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:01,160 Speaker 3: So they didn't even have that the respect to call 55 00:03:01,280 --> 00:03:06,600 Speaker 3: us or let us know. We were very let down. 56 00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:08,880 Speaker 3: We were hurt because this is a wound that's been 57 00:03:08,919 --> 00:03:13,400 Speaker 3: going on.

So many people have no idea that 64 00:03:34,520 --> 00:03:37,840 Speaker 1: this happened. This was an Obama administration program where they 65 00:03:37,840 --> 00:03:42,240 Speaker 1: thought they could give criminal organizations weapons and track them. 66 00:03:42,320 --> 00:03:43,960 Speaker 2: Is that I mean that seems crazy. 67 00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:49,760 Speaker 3: Well, yeah, it is crazy because they were releasing guns 68 00:03:50,240 --> 00:03:54,760 Speaker 3: to known felons to take back, not one or two 69 00:03:54,760 --> 00:03:58,160 Speaker 3: at a time, thirty to forty AK forty seven's at 70 00:03:58,160 --> 00:04:01,000 Speaker 3: a time, letting these people. They ti let these people 71 00:04:01,040 --> 00:04:06,040 Speaker 3: buy these from gun dealers to run back across the Mexican. 72 00:04:05,640 --> 00:04:08,280 Speaker 2: Border weapons that are legal to buy. 73 00:04:08,800 --> 00:04:10,680 Speaker 3: Weapons are legal to buy it. But like I said, 74 00:04:10,680 --> 00:04:14,320 Speaker 3: the point is they're letting known felons do it to take. 75 00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:16,680 Speaker 1: Back to How did they expect to track these I 76 00:04:16,839 --> 00:04:19,280 Speaker 1: just don't understand how. It's not like they had tracking 77 00:04:19,320 --> 00:04:22,000 Speaker 1: devices they were gonna they had to commit a crime 78 00:04:22,040 --> 00:04:24,560 Speaker 1: for you to know that the gun was being used, right. 79 00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:27,680 Speaker 3: Absolutely, absolutely, But there was no they weren't being tracks. 80 00:04:27,720 --> 00:04:31,960 Speaker 3: I've talked to numerous ATF that are are are disgusted 81 00:04:32,040 --> 00:04:34,839 Speaker 3: what their agency did. In fact, the few of them 82 00:04:34,880 --> 00:04:36,880 Speaker 3: just reached out to me when they found out about 83 00:04:36,920 --> 00:04:40,279 Speaker 3: the overturning of the killer and Brian's case. How disgusted 84 00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:43,599 Speaker 3: they were, you know, and this should never happened, you know, 85 00:04:43,720 --> 00:04:47,440 Speaker 3: if they would have never put them four thousand AK 86 00:04:47,600 --> 00:04:51,800 Speaker 3: forty seven's out there, the handguns, your needs, whatever they 87 00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:53,760 Speaker 3: did out there, our brothers still be alive. 88 00:04:55,120 --> 00:04:57,880 Speaker 1: And this was right before Christmas time, right, this was 89 00:04:58,279 --> 00:05:01,160 Speaker 1: he was about to be off for the Christmas holiday 90 00:05:01,320 --> 00:05:01,719 Speaker 1: and he. 91 00:05:01,839 --> 00:05:04,880 Speaker 3: Was finishing up that shift, and that next day he 92 00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:07,040 Speaker 3: was going to get ready to fly home for Michigan 93 00:05:07,480 --> 00:05:10,120 Speaker 3: and three years.

And the weirdest thing was 96 00:05:19,000 --> 00:05:21,240 Speaker 3: we picked him up on the eighteenth in a coffin. 97 00:05:22,360 --> 00:05:27,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, And that was so explain that night they 98 00:05:27,080 --> 00:05:29,920 Speaker 1: were were they just he was border patrol, so they were, 99 00:05:30,080 --> 00:05:32,280 Speaker 1: but he was a special unit, right, So were they 100 00:05:32,440 --> 00:05:34,880 Speaker 1: looking for these guys or what exactly happened? 101 00:05:34,920 --> 00:05:35,760 Speaker 2: How did this go down? 102 00:05:36,200 --> 00:05:39,800 Speaker 3: He'd belonged an elite group called Bortec, which is like 103 00:05:39,839 --> 00:05:44,640 Speaker 3: the higher level elite for the border patrol, and they've 104 00:05:44,640 --> 00:05:49,279 Speaker 3: been tracking these guys for months knowing that they're coming 105 00:05:49,279 --> 00:05:52,200 Speaker 3: in armed with long rifles and what they're doing. They 106 00:05:52,200 --> 00:05:57,080 Speaker 3: were robbing other drug loads coming across. So that night, 107 00:05:58,320 --> 00:06:01,679 Speaker 3: about fifteen minutes for their shift is up. In fact, 108 00:06:01,720 --> 00:06:05,640 Speaker 3: they relieve duty was on their way in walking in 109 00:06:05,720 --> 00:06:11,120 Speaker 3: as the rip crew was walking down a wash out, 110 00:06:11,400 --> 00:06:14,239 Speaker 3: so they were like I think west of where Brian 111 00:06:14,279 --> 00:06:18,760 Speaker 3: got killed, and the guys were just I think southwest 112 00:06:19,040 --> 00:06:21,880 Speaker 3: where Brian got killed, the rip crew. So they were 113 00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:25,239 Speaker 3: trying to they're getting ready packed up, Brian had his stuff, 114 00:06:25,240 --> 00:06:26,919 Speaker 3: They're all packed up, getting ready to leave, wait for 115 00:06:26,920 --> 00:06:29,280 Speaker 3: the crew to come in. And they got sight of 116 00:06:29,320 --> 00:06:31,960 Speaker 3: these guys come out. Censor went off and a rip 117 00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:34,200 Speaker 3: crew come down to wash out right in front of 118 00:06:34,240 --> 00:06:36,640 Speaker 3: it where Brian and his group were. So one of 119 00:06:36,640 --> 00:06:40,680 Speaker 3: the agents yelled up, policia, policia, and within seconds it's 120 00:06:40,720 --> 00:06:41,840 Speaker 3: just everybody opened fire. 121 00:06:42,560 --> 00:06:45,720 Speaker 1: And so so he was shot in the back and 122 00:06:45,760 --> 00:06:48,840 Speaker 1: he and he didn't live for very much longer after that. 123 00:06:48,960 --> 00:06:49,240 Speaker 1: Is that? 124 00:06:49,279 --> 00:06:52,160 Speaker 3: No, No, he died right there in the scene. And so. 125 00:06:53,920 --> 00:06:58,039 Speaker 1: And so he here is this young man and such 126 00:06:58,080 --> 00:07:01,240 Speaker 1: a handsome young man with a huge future ahead of him, 127 00:07:01,360 --> 00:07:06,040 Speaker 1: and this is an Obama weapon. I mean, essentially Obama 128 00:07:06,520 --> 00:07:10,080 Speaker 1: decided to have this failed program where. 129 00:07:10,240 --> 00:07:11,200 Speaker 2: He has people. 130 00:07:11,800 --> 00:07:15,920 Speaker 1: Let's just lay this out, because you have people who 131 00:07:15,960 --> 00:07:19,280 Speaker 1: you're selling, you know are criminals, you know are on 132 00:07:19,360 --> 00:07:22,680 Speaker 1: the border. You know they're using weapons against Americans, you 133 00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:25,920 Speaker 1: know they're using these weapons against our border patrol agents. 134 00:07:26,160 --> 00:07:28,520 Speaker 2: And yet you give them more weapons. 135 00:07:29,120 --> 00:07:31,760 Speaker 3: Yeah, like I said, it wasn't It wasn't a couple hundred, 136 00:07:31,800 --> 00:07:34,440 Speaker 3: it was it was a few thousand. That's that's And 137 00:07:34,480 --> 00:07:36,560 Speaker 3: you know what, and there's still reeking. They're still being 138 00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:39,160 Speaker 3: used on the border today. It's just a matter of 139 00:07:39,280 --> 00:07:40,880 Speaker 3: time before another agent gets killed. 140 00:07:41,520 --> 00:07:44,360 Speaker 1: So what is the what kind of investigation has been 141 00:07:44,400 --> 00:07:48,400 Speaker 1: done on this? Because I just I cannot even understand 142 00:07:48,480 --> 00:07:51,200 Speaker 1: how I want to know the mindset behind this, Like, 143 00:07:51,200 --> 00:07:53,080 Speaker 1: how did anybody think that this was going to be 144 00:07:53,120 --> 00:07:55,760 Speaker 1: a good idea? You would literally have to have people 145 00:07:55,880 --> 00:07:57,880 Speaker 1: die to find out who had the weapon. 146 00:07:58,400 --> 00:08:01,040 Speaker 3: Well, see, that's that's the thing too. Then the investigation 147 00:08:01,160 --> 00:08:03,280 Speaker 3: in the past praiers as you know through the hearings. 148 00:08:03,320 --> 00:08:08,200 Speaker 3: You can contact darryl Isa or Senator Grassley. They'll tell 149 00:08:08,240 --> 00:08:11,280 Speaker 3: you it went absolutely nowhere. It was a Hollywood show 150 00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:13,480 Speaker 3: for the American people to say, hey, we're going to 151 00:08:13,520 --> 00:08:16,280 Speaker 3: do something about these weapons going south. But nothing's happened. 152 00:08:16,760 --> 00:08:19,920 Speaker 3: People got slapped on the hand, that's about it. People 153 00:08:19,920 --> 00:08:22,520 Speaker 3: are still got a cushy job. I mean, Bill knew 154 00:08:22,640 --> 00:08:25,400 Speaker 3: that was running the ATF operation. He still working with 155 00:08:25,440 --> 00:08:29,840 Speaker 3: ATF making stupid decisions. I'm sure it's just like and 156 00:08:29,960 --> 00:08:33,640 Speaker 3: here you got dead people, just not on the American side, 157 00:08:33,679 --> 00:08:37,240 Speaker 3: but thousands by now on the Mexican side with these weapons. 158 00:08:37,800 --> 00:08:40,440 Speaker 1: Well that's the other thing that the party who is 159 00:08:40,720 --> 00:08:44,880 Speaker 1: always so concerned with humanity and life and well a 160 00:08:44,920 --> 00:08:47,840 Speaker 1: certain part of life making sure that all of these 161 00:08:47,920 --> 00:08:52,040 Speaker 1: folks are safely coming across the border, they gave weapons 162 00:08:52,080 --> 00:08:54,120 Speaker 1: to the most dangerous people. And I think what people 163 00:08:54,160 --> 00:08:58,600 Speaker 1: don't understand is that this is a hundreds of millions 164 00:08:58,600 --> 00:09:02,559 Speaker 1: of dollar business annually. These people, whether it's drugs or 165 00:09:02,640 --> 00:09:06,520 Speaker 1: human trafficking, they are using those weapons to make sure 166 00:09:06,640 --> 00:09:09,559 Speaker 1: they're moving product across the border. And for those people 167 00:09:09,559 --> 00:09:11,800 Speaker 1: who don't know off there, I'm sure they do. And 168 00:09:11,920 --> 00:09:14,400 Speaker 1: AK forty seven is not legal. That is not a 169 00:09:14,400 --> 00:09:17,000 Speaker 1: weapon that you can use in the United States. It 170 00:09:17,080 --> 00:09:19,559 Speaker 1: is not a weapon for civilians. 171 00:09:19,960 --> 00:09:22,320 Speaker 3: No, it's a weapon of war. But it's just like 172 00:09:22,400 --> 00:09:25,240 Speaker 3: you said, you touched something right there. They're still using 173 00:09:25,240 --> 00:09:28,719 Speaker 3: these weapons the smuggle illegals across the border illegally. 174 00:09:29,480 --> 00:09:32,000 Speaker 1: Stay tuned for more of my interview with Ken Terry, 175 00:09:32,040 --> 00:09:33,920 Speaker 1: but first I want to take a moment to tell 176 00:09:33,960 --> 00:09:37,320 Speaker 1: you about my partners at IFCJ.

I mean, 204 00:11:13,120 --> 00:11:17,280 Speaker 1: Trump had to really bolster the security at the border. 205 00:11:17,320 --> 00:11:19,680 Speaker 1: You have to have more border agents down there. We 206 00:11:19,760 --> 00:11:23,040 Speaker 1: don't have the right equipment, we don't have the full 207 00:11:23,120 --> 00:11:27,080 Speaker 1: wall built, we don't have the technology down there that 208 00:11:27,120 --> 00:11:29,160 Speaker 1: we need at the border. That's still going to be 209 00:11:29,520 --> 00:11:33,240 Speaker 1: much more costly. And we provided the weapons that are 210 00:11:33,320 --> 00:11:35,280 Speaker 1: helping people move people. 211 00:11:35,400 --> 00:11:36,560 Speaker 2: Now it's mostly people. 212 00:11:36,600 --> 00:11:38,800 Speaker 1: I mean, there is still a lot of drug trafficking 213 00:11:38,840 --> 00:11:42,720 Speaker 1: coming across the border, but people are actually they bring 214 00:11:42,760 --> 00:11:46,760 Speaker 1: in more money, so they're moving more people than anything else. 215 00:11:46,800 --> 00:11:50,400 Speaker 1: And kids, they're trafficking these children. That's the thing that 216 00:11:50,440 --> 00:11:53,520 Speaker 1: I just think is the craziest part about it is 217 00:11:53,720 --> 00:11:56,640 Speaker 1: And I'm sure your brother had many stories about the 218 00:11:57,120 --> 00:12:00,199 Speaker 1: children that were being trafficked across the border. 219 00:12:00,280 --> 00:12:02,920 Speaker 3: Oh yeah, just not children being trafficed across. It's the 220 00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:06,880 Speaker 3: children that he found dead in the desert being tracked across. 221 00:12:07,120 --> 00:12:09,199 Speaker 3: You know. You know, he said, told me a story 222 00:12:09,240 --> 00:12:11,480 Speaker 3: one time when there was a mother holding their baby 223 00:12:12,160 --> 00:12:14,440 Speaker 3: still and they're both like they've been out there so long, 224 00:12:14,600 --> 00:12:18,800 Speaker 3: the sun beat on, they're almost mummified. And yeah, and yeah, 225 00:12:19,000 --> 00:12:22,160 Speaker 3: it just but I'm sure if you ask every border agent, 226 00:12:22,200 --> 00:12:24,960 Speaker 3: they got a story like that. And that's even more 227 00:12:25,040 --> 00:12:28,440 Speaker 3: reason why if there were sorried about people's lives, they 228 00:12:28,440 --> 00:12:31,920 Speaker 3: would finish. And that's another thing too. This wall's been 229 00:12:32,040 --> 00:12:35,800 Speaker 3: up since Vietnam era, since I but since I was born, 230 00:12:36,240 --> 00:12:38,680 Speaker 3: it just was never finished. It was it wasn't the 231 00:12:38,720 --> 00:12:40,960 Speaker 3: same wall, it wasn't as tall, but there was always 232 00:12:40,960 --> 00:12:45,080 Speaker 3: a wall there, you know. But they didn't argue about it. 233 00:12:45,120 --> 00:12:46,960 Speaker 3: Then they didn't make a fuss about it. Then all 234 00:12:46,960 --> 00:12:49,360 Speaker 3: of a sudden, now you got a good man Trump 235 00:12:49,480 --> 00:12:51,200 Speaker 3: that wants to put a wall up. They give the 236 00:12:51,240 --> 00:12:54,160 Speaker 3: Border patrol the tools they need, and that's a tool. 237 00:12:54,840 --> 00:12:58,000 Speaker 3: It's a it's an important tool for these guys. And 238 00:12:58,160 --> 00:12:59,679 Speaker 3: all of a sudden, now it's a problem. 239 00:13:00,480 --> 00:13:02,920 Speaker 2: It's not us though they believe it's a problem. 240 00:13:02,920 --> 00:13:06,480 Speaker 1: Though, I mean, you don't really see in the depths 241 00:13:06,480 --> 00:13:08,200 Speaker 1: of their souls that they believe that. 242 00:13:08,720 --> 00:13:09,440 Speaker 2: I think you're right. 243 00:13:09,480 --> 00:13:12,240 Speaker 1: I think it's they realized that Trump was winning on 244 00:13:12,280 --> 00:13:14,720 Speaker 1: that issue. They looked at that and they said, he 245 00:13:15,000 --> 00:13:17,960 Speaker 1: actually is gaining ground on the border wall. And I 246 00:13:17,960 --> 00:13:20,480 Speaker 1: think they know that's why he won in twenty sixteen. 247 00:13:20,600 --> 00:13:22,520 Speaker 1: You know, they kept hearing the chance, build the wall, 248 00:13:22,520 --> 00:13:26,520 Speaker 1: build the wall. People are very concerned about not knowing 249 00:13:26,559 --> 00:13:29,640 Speaker 1: who who is in this country with us. Do these 250 00:13:29,679 --> 00:13:32,760 Speaker 1: people want to assimilate, do they want to become Americans? 251 00:13:32,920 --> 00:13:35,400 Speaker 1: Or are there bad guys coming across? And there are 252 00:13:35,440 --> 00:13:37,560 Speaker 1: We know that we have people on the terror watch list. 253 00:13:37,600 --> 00:13:40,400 Speaker 1: We know that we are being irresponsible with the people 254 00:13:40,400 --> 00:13:42,320 Speaker 1: that are coming across the border. And I think you're right. 255 00:13:42,360 --> 00:13:47,160 Speaker 1: I think that in that case, the opposing side and 256 00:13:47,200 --> 00:13:50,640 Speaker 1: the Democrats looked at this and said, we've always been 257 00:13:50,640 --> 00:13:52,040 Speaker 1: for it, because Nancy Pelosi was. 258 00:13:51,960 --> 00:13:54,680 Speaker 2: For it, Joe Biden was for it. I mean Obama 259 00:13:54,800 --> 00:13:55,600 Speaker 2: was actually for it. 260 00:13:55,679 --> 00:13:58,120 Speaker 1: Like we never heard this until Trump won on that 261 00:13:58,160 --> 00:14:01,199 Speaker 1: message that suddenly now they don't want border security. 262 00:14:01,240 --> 00:14:03,760 Speaker 2: It's crazy, it is. 263 00:14:03,640 --> 00:14:06,000 Speaker 3: And like you said, it's just gonna take something very bad, 264 00:14:06,400 --> 00:14:08,400 Speaker 3: and it's just a matter of time with all these 265 00:14:08,480 --> 00:14:10,280 Speaker 3: terrorists coming across. And we don't, like you said, we 266 00:14:10,280 --> 00:14:12,120 Speaker 3: don't know who's coming across there. We don't know. 267 00:14:13,320 --> 00:14:17,160 Speaker 1: I mean, we had really bad Brian's death is really bad. 268 00:14:17,400 --> 00:14:20,320 Speaker 1: I mean Ruby Garcia and Grand Rapids her death is 269 00:14:20,400 --> 00:14:24,200 Speaker 1: really bad. Like and Riley her death is really bad. 270 00:14:24,640 --> 00:14:27,720 Speaker 1: We just and the number of families when I went 271 00:14:27,960 --> 00:14:32,600 Speaker 1: there years ago, and this was probably twenty nineteen that 272 00:14:32,800 --> 00:14:34,920 Speaker 1: I went to DC and we sat down with the 273 00:14:34,960 --> 00:14:38,440 Speaker 1: Angel families, and I remember we were saying, gosh, I 274 00:14:38,480 --> 00:14:40,800 Speaker 1: don't know if we'll be able to get enough people 275 00:14:40,920 --> 00:14:46,080 Speaker 1: seated around the microphones because we have nineteen families, nineteen 276 00:14:46,120 --> 00:14:49,400 Speaker 1: families who had lost someone to illegal alien crime. And 277 00:14:49,440 --> 00:14:51,960 Speaker 1: that was just the group that came to DC to 278 00:14:52,080 --> 00:14:55,440 Speaker 1: talk to us. And I thought, how many people are 279 00:14:55,480 --> 00:14:59,200 Speaker 1: in this situation. And I hear these people on TV 280 00:14:59,360 --> 00:15:02,800 Speaker 1: and they say stupid thing. It's like, well more people 281 00:15:02,800 --> 00:15:06,800 Speaker 1: are dying from American criminals. And I'm like, but okay, 282 00:15:06,880 --> 00:15:10,160 Speaker 1: we shouldn't be okay with that either. But these people. 283 00:15:10,320 --> 00:15:12,600 Speaker 2: Died from someone who wasn't even supposed to be an 284 00:15:12,680 --> 00:15:14,920 Speaker 2: easy fix, someone who wasn't even supposed to be here. 285 00:15:15,160 --> 00:15:19,240 Speaker 3: No, just like in Brian's case, these guys committed crimes daily. 286 00:15:19,360 --> 00:15:23,240 Speaker 3: They're illegals, come home here every day to commit crimes 287 00:15:23,720 --> 00:15:25,960 Speaker 3: and then go back to Mexico, wake up the next 288 00:15:26,000 --> 00:15:29,320 Speaker 3: morning and repeat, you know. And it just when I 289 00:15:29,360 --> 00:15:31,480 Speaker 3: met the Angel family, like you said, it was just 290 00:15:31,920 --> 00:15:35,560 Speaker 3: nineteen people or nineteen families. But can you mention what 291 00:15:35,600 --> 00:15:37,920 Speaker 3: it is now? It's got to be in the thirties 292 00:15:37,920 --> 00:15:41,080 Speaker 3: and forties now. And that's another reason why we don't 293 00:15:41,080 --> 00:15:44,680 Speaker 3: need Kamala Harrison office because look at her track record 294 00:15:45,000 --> 00:15:49,840 Speaker 3: in California there letting all these illegals go there, you know, 295 00:15:49,880 --> 00:15:53,160 Speaker 3: the committed crimes, letting them go. This is in Brian's case. 296 00:15:53,200 --> 00:15:55,840 Speaker 3: This is another reason why we don't need a stupid 297 00:15:55,880 --> 00:15:59,720 Speaker 3: politician in there to do something like this. Because Irons killer, 298 00:16:00,040 --> 00:16:03,040 Speaker 3: all of a sudden, now his amendment, his rights matter. 299 00:16:03,480 --> 00:16:05,280 Speaker 3: I mean, what about my brother's rights? 300 00:16:05,840 --> 00:16:07,480 Speaker 2: So where why did they let him go? 301 00:16:08,160 --> 00:16:12,440 Speaker 3: They said, we violated his fifth and sixth Amendment. But 302 00:16:12,480 --> 00:16:15,000 Speaker 3: I'm thinking, how can you even reviolate that if you're 303 00:16:15,040 --> 00:16:16,160 Speaker 3: not even a US citizen. 304 00:16:17,400 --> 00:16:20,840 Speaker 2: It's a good question, how do you have How do 305 00:16:20,880 --> 00:16:22,920 Speaker 2: you have those rights if you are not a citizen 306 00:16:22,960 --> 00:16:23,640 Speaker 2: of this country? 307 00:16:23,920 --> 00:16:25,680 Speaker 3: I mean, yeah, I mean, so did you committed the crime? 308 00:16:25,760 --> 00:16:28,040 Speaker 3: He ran back to Mexico? You know, I mean, it's 309 00:16:28,040 --> 00:16:30,160 Speaker 3: like we had to extradut you from there. But how 310 00:16:30,200 --> 00:16:33,480 Speaker 3: do we, Like I said, it's like these people got 311 00:16:33,520 --> 00:16:35,400 Speaker 3: more rights than American citizens do. 312 00:16:35,480 --> 00:16:38,960 Speaker 2: Now, but he admitted to the crime, didn't it mean 313 00:16:39,040 --> 00:16:39,480 Speaker 2: to the crime. 314 00:16:39,480 --> 00:16:41,320 Speaker 3: But all of a sudden, now we violated his rights. 315 00:16:41,480 --> 00:16:43,040 Speaker 3: But you know what, now it's going to open the 316 00:16:43,080 --> 00:16:47,240 Speaker 3: door for the other sixty guys that got are found guilty. 317 00:16:47,280 --> 00:16:49,000 Speaker 3: Now they're going to go back and say the same thing. 318 00:16:49,040 --> 00:16:49,520 Speaker 3: How do you know? 319 00:16:49,800 --> 00:16:52,920 Speaker 1: So now this guy is free. I assume that he 320 00:16:53,000 --> 00:16:54,120 Speaker 1: was sent back to Mexico. 321 00:16:54,400 --> 00:16:56,080 Speaker 3: Oh you know what, I don't know. I just know 322 00:16:56,200 --> 00:16:58,640 Speaker 3: the case got overturned and we're waiting to find out 323 00:16:58,640 --> 00:17:00,240 Speaker 3: what's going on. We're in limbo, just like. 324 00:17:00,240 --> 00:17:03,360 Speaker 1: You are you kidding me? They don't even tell the family. 325 00:17:03,480 --> 00:17:07,240 Speaker 3: Nope, we have not heard nothing. In fact, the main prosecutor, 326 00:17:07,280 --> 00:17:13,000 Speaker 3: Guy Leshner, he's no longer a prosecutor. He's a judge now. 327 00:17:13,160 --> 00:17:15,040 Speaker 3: So I don't know who's going to try the case. 328 00:17:15,200 --> 00:17:18,920 Speaker 2: So this still this still goes through. 329 00:17:19,040 --> 00:17:21,280 Speaker 1: There's still another trial, this goes through, or it was 330 00:17:21,440 --> 00:17:24,320 Speaker 1: just overturned and he gets to how does it work 331 00:17:24,359 --> 00:17:25,400 Speaker 1: when it's overturned? 332 00:17:25,440 --> 00:17:26,959 Speaker 2: Does he get Well? 333 00:17:27,000 --> 00:17:29,360 Speaker 3: I think we're waiting on the government to retry him 334 00:17:29,720 --> 00:17:32,320 Speaker 3: so that he can retry him, or they okay, we're 335 00:17:32,359 --> 00:17:33,240 Speaker 3: just going to let him go. 336 00:17:34,040 --> 00:17:36,440 Speaker 1: So because they're saying he got bad legal advice and 337 00:17:36,560 --> 00:17:38,760 Speaker 1: he's not even an American citizen. 338 00:17:38,880 --> 00:17:43,920 Speaker 3: No, what about his advice? I mean, what about us? Right? 339 00:17:44,200 --> 00:17:46,359 Speaker 3: I mean, what about you know, us getting answers, you 340 00:17:46,400 --> 00:17:49,040 Speaker 3: know and in peace and a closed heart. But you know, 341 00:17:49,520 --> 00:17:52,919 Speaker 3: it sads me because we've been going on fourteen years 342 00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:56,480 Speaker 3: and we still got this no justice, no answers for 343 00:17:56,640 --> 00:17:59,960 Speaker 3: why Brian died. Everything's hush hush. Obama sealed the case. 344 00:18:02,359 --> 00:18:04,960 Speaker 3: But you got people like George Ford flaming. They got 345 00:18:05,000 --> 00:18:09,040 Speaker 3: answers within two weeks stay out in two weeks. 346 00:18:09,600 --> 00:18:10,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, they had. 347 00:18:10,840 --> 00:18:16,160 Speaker 1: I mean they had what important government officials at the funeral. 348 00:18:17,200 --> 00:18:17,440 Speaker 3: Yeah. 349 00:18:18,880 --> 00:18:21,800 Speaker 1: So Carrie Lake has been really supportive of you guys, 350 00:18:21,880 --> 00:18:22,360 Speaker 1: Is that right? 351 00:18:22,720 --> 00:18:23,200 Speaker 3: Who who's that? 352 00:18:23,920 --> 00:18:24,480 Speaker 2: Carrie Lake? 353 00:18:24,800 --> 00:18:28,240 Speaker 3: Yes? Very She reached out the other day and text 354 00:18:28,320 --> 00:18:31,080 Speaker 3: me and she put a post on Twitter there, but 355 00:18:31,840 --> 00:18:33,600 Speaker 3: she said her thoughts and prayers are with us, and 356 00:18:33,640 --> 00:18:36,360 Speaker 3: that I hope the judge does the right thing. 357 00:18:36,600 --> 00:18:39,240 Speaker 1: I think that's something important for people to know, because 358 00:18:39,440 --> 00:18:41,960 Speaker 1: we talked about earlier how this doesn't seem to be 359 00:18:42,080 --> 00:18:45,440 Speaker 1: something that the Democrats actually believe in their heart and soul. 360 00:18:45,520 --> 00:18:47,480 Speaker 1: It's like a talking point. They just want to be 361 00:18:47,560 --> 00:18:50,040 Speaker 1: on the other side of the issue. Political issues have 362 00:18:50,119 --> 00:18:56,159 Speaker 1: become so divided, so divided. It's, for example, watching the DNC, 363 00:18:56,960 --> 00:19:00,360 Speaker 1: I'm watching them talk about, Oh, we're giving away free 364 00:19:00,400 --> 00:19:04,360 Speaker 1: abortions and free vasectomies, and I'm like, wow, think about this. 365 00:19:04,880 --> 00:19:09,199 Speaker 1: We've gone from safe, legal and rare to come and 366 00:19:09,240 --> 00:19:12,720 Speaker 1: have one. Everybody is doing it. It's just to be 367 00:19:13,920 --> 00:19:17,080 Speaker 1: the contrarian. It's just to be on the other side 368 00:19:17,119 --> 00:19:19,560 Speaker 1: of the issue. But when you tell me, Carrie Lake 369 00:19:19,640 --> 00:19:21,240 Speaker 1: texted you, that's real. 370 00:19:22,000 --> 00:19:25,520 Speaker 3: Yeah it is. You know what. I met Trump a 371 00:19:25,560 --> 00:19:30,640 Speaker 3: few times and he's very sincere, and he's you can't 372 00:19:30,680 --> 00:19:33,200 Speaker 3: apologize enough for what they did to brain And it's 373 00:19:33,200 --> 00:19:36,200 Speaker 3: not his fault. I mean, he didn't make a promise 374 00:19:36,240 --> 00:19:38,240 Speaker 3: that he would open up the books in the Fast 375 00:19:38,280 --> 00:19:40,920 Speaker 3: and Furious, But I think he had some bad apples 376 00:19:41,720 --> 00:19:44,480 Speaker 3: in his administration last time, they wouldn't let him do that, 377 00:19:45,200 --> 00:19:48,080 Speaker 3: sessions in bar you know, the two. 378 00:19:48,240 --> 00:19:51,439 Speaker 1: I think it's also a short period of time. You know, 379 00:19:51,680 --> 00:19:56,400 Speaker 1: every I think everybody was assuming eight years. And I'm 380 00:19:56,440 --> 00:20:00,240 Speaker 1: not making excuses, but I do think that you go, Okay, well, 381 00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:02,240 Speaker 1: well I've got eight years to get all of this done, 382 00:20:02,240 --> 00:20:04,840 Speaker 1: and there's so much to get done in that time. 383 00:20:05,240 --> 00:20:09,520 Speaker 1: And then losing that election was a shock obviously to 384 00:20:09,640 --> 00:20:14,399 Speaker 1: many people. And yeah, I've watched I watched the DNC 385 00:20:14,560 --> 00:20:17,399 Speaker 1: and I see one of our own state senators go 386 00:20:17,520 --> 00:20:20,760 Speaker 1: out there and say, if Donald Trump wins, he's going 387 00:20:20,800 --> 00:20:24,479 Speaker 1: to weaponize the government against his opponents. And I'm like, 388 00:20:24,960 --> 00:20:28,199 Speaker 1: are you kidding me? Look at what this man has endured. 389 00:20:28,240 --> 00:20:31,760 Speaker 1: And I believe you're right. When I've met with him, 390 00:20:31,800 --> 00:20:34,800 Speaker 1: he's been incredibly genuine. And I tell this story. We 391 00:20:35,640 --> 00:20:37,240 Speaker 1: were at Mar A Lago. 392 00:20:36,960 --> 00:20:38,840 Speaker 2: With my father. My father was very ill. 393 00:20:39,119 --> 00:20:42,399 Speaker 1: And you know how the team comes around. You're like, Okay, 394 00:20:42,520 --> 00:20:45,240 Speaker 1: Trump's gonna sit down with you guys. He's got ten minutes, 395 00:20:45,720 --> 00:20:48,640 Speaker 1: and he was very generous. He sat down and talked 396 00:20:48,680 --> 00:20:50,760 Speaker 1: to my dad. It was at least a half hour. 397 00:20:50,920 --> 00:20:53,480 Speaker 1: He never acted like he had any place else to go. 398 00:20:53,960 --> 00:20:56,560 Speaker 1: He understood my dad was sick, and he took that 399 00:20:56,720 --> 00:20:59,760 Speaker 1: time and it was so meaningful. And I do believe 400 00:20:59,840 --> 00:21:02,920 Speaker 1: that the reason he's running again. Everybody says, oh, it's 401 00:21:02,960 --> 00:21:06,600 Speaker 1: because he's just full of himself. No, if you were 402 00:21:06,640 --> 00:21:09,000 Speaker 1: full of yourself, you would not go through this. Trust 403 00:21:09,040 --> 00:21:11,040 Speaker 1: me as someone who's run for office. It is not 404 00:21:11,200 --> 00:21:14,720 Speaker 1: exactly life building. These are not like words of affirmation 405 00:21:14,840 --> 00:21:18,040 Speaker 1: you get every day. I assure you, it's pretty humiliating. 406 00:21:18,359 --> 00:21:20,480 Speaker 1: He wouldn't do this except for people like you. 407 00:21:20,480 --> 00:21:23,800 Speaker 3: No, he loves this country. You can tell he loves 408 00:21:23,840 --> 00:21:26,119 Speaker 3: his country and he loves the people in it. And 409 00:21:26,160 --> 00:21:27,840 Speaker 3: it's like I tell everybody at work all the time. 410 00:21:27,840 --> 00:21:29,520 Speaker 3: They asked me, Hey, you met Trump. I said, yeah, 411 00:21:30,040 --> 00:21:31,600 Speaker 3: how is he? How is he really as bad as 412 00:21:31,600 --> 00:21:35,320 Speaker 3: a media says, No, he's not is. He's a very 413 00:21:35,400 --> 00:21:38,000 Speaker 3: genuine nice guy. He really was, and he teats you 414 00:21:38,000 --> 00:21:40,159 Speaker 3: with respect. He talks to you like you said. I 415 00:21:40,200 --> 00:21:42,679 Speaker 3: talked to him in twenty sixteen when I first met him, 416 00:21:42,680 --> 00:21:44,879 Speaker 3: when we talked about Brian's case, and you can tell 417 00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:46,199 Speaker 3: by the look in his face when he was what 418 00:21:46,280 --> 00:21:48,399 Speaker 3: he was looking at me. He wasn't like when I 419 00:21:48,440 --> 00:21:51,080 Speaker 3: was talking to Pence. Pence was like looking around looking 420 00:21:51,119 --> 00:21:54,080 Speaker 3: for a fly in a room. I mean, Trump wasn't 421 00:21:54,160 --> 00:21:57,960 Speaker 3: like that. He face to face, we had a fifteen 422 00:21:58,040 --> 00:22:02,919 Speaker 3: minute conversation and and yeah, you can tell he ben 423 00:22:03,080 --> 00:22:04,760 Speaker 3: he's going to keep this promise. I believe he is. 424 00:22:05,359 --> 00:22:07,200 Speaker 2: And the thing about him is he's listening. 425 00:22:07,320 --> 00:22:10,120 Speaker 1: And I think even we saw that just a few 426 00:22:10,160 --> 00:22:12,360 Speaker 1: weeks ago in Grund Rapids when he came to Grund 427 00:22:12,440 --> 00:22:15,639 Speaker 1: Rapids and we had the one of the union members 428 00:22:15,680 --> 00:22:18,560 Speaker 1: there and that is pro Trump, one of the UAW 429 00:22:18,680 --> 00:22:20,520 Speaker 1: members that is pro Trump, and he was like, hey, 430 00:22:20,600 --> 00:22:22,639 Speaker 1: I've talked to you before. And he called him up, 431 00:22:22,720 --> 00:22:25,520 Speaker 1: you know, and it's like, you're watching this. This is 432 00:22:25,560 --> 00:22:29,520 Speaker 1: not scripted stuff. And that's what drives the other side crazy. 433 00:22:29,880 --> 00:22:34,440 Speaker 1: He remembers he has conversations, and those conversations are the 434 00:22:34,920 --> 00:22:38,520 Speaker 1: conversations that led him to fight for us because he 435 00:22:38,680 --> 00:22:41,480 Speaker 1: wants to see people better. And I think that that's 436 00:22:41,520 --> 00:22:45,040 Speaker 1: what you kind of collect stories when you're out there 437 00:22:45,040 --> 00:22:47,320 Speaker 1: and you're really out there, you're really out there running 438 00:22:47,320 --> 00:22:51,680 Speaker 1: for office. And this is why I think that Republicans 439 00:22:51,680 --> 00:22:55,560 Speaker 1: are critical of the Kamala Harris's and you know the 440 00:22:56,040 --> 00:23:01,040 Speaker 1: Tim Walls of the world who blow into a rally here, 441 00:23:01,080 --> 00:23:03,280 Speaker 1: in a rally there, but they're not doing town halls. 442 00:23:03,320 --> 00:23:06,000 Speaker 1: They're not having discussions, they're not allowing people to ask 443 00:23:06,040 --> 00:23:09,560 Speaker 1: them questions. Because I remember when I was out there campaigning, 444 00:23:09,920 --> 00:23:12,520 Speaker 1: and I actually just had a conversation about this today. 445 00:23:12,560 --> 00:23:16,720 Speaker 1: I'm like, it's the stories that you hear on the 446 00:23:16,880 --> 00:23:22,160 Speaker 1: campaign trail that keep you going, not because they're so inspirational, 447 00:23:22,280 --> 00:23:24,560 Speaker 1: because you have to help these people. 448 00:23:25,640 --> 00:23:27,920 Speaker 2: And I believe that that's how Trump feels as well. 449 00:23:28,080 --> 00:23:31,320 Speaker 3: Oh yeah, absolutely, one hundred percent. You can see it 450 00:23:31,359 --> 00:23:33,480 Speaker 3: in them. You can see it in his whole families 451 00:23:33,560 --> 00:23:33,880 Speaker 3: like that. 452 00:23:35,000 --> 00:23:38,320 Speaker 1: So what do you think Kamala Harris administration is like 453 00:23:38,480 --> 00:23:39,639 Speaker 1: for border patrol? 454 00:23:39,680 --> 00:23:41,000 Speaker 3: You know, it's funny you said it, because I got 455 00:23:41,000 --> 00:23:43,080 Speaker 3: a nephew that just signed up in the border patrol 456 00:23:43,560 --> 00:23:46,600 Speaker 3: and he's now working down in the Arizona border, the 457 00:23:46,680 --> 00:23:49,760 Speaker 3: same the same beat my brother did. And then I 458 00:23:49,800 --> 00:23:52,080 Speaker 3: even have a board of patrol. She gets in office, 459 00:23:53,440 --> 00:23:56,520 Speaker 3: I even have it. What's the purpose of it. 460 00:23:56,680 --> 00:23:59,480 Speaker 2: That's a good point. I mean, we keep hearing. 461 00:23:59,400 --> 00:24:02,360 Speaker 3: Their handcuff, their handcuffed. Now, so if she really got 462 00:24:02,359 --> 00:24:04,280 Speaker 3: in office. What are they going to do out of 463 00:24:04,320 --> 00:24:06,680 Speaker 3: the cactus. What else they going to do? They can't 464 00:24:06,760 --> 00:24:07,480 Speaker 3: arrest illegals. 465 00:24:07,680 --> 00:24:10,359 Speaker 2: Let's take a quick commercial break. We'll continue next on 466 00:24:10,400 --> 00:24:11,800 Speaker 2: the Tutor Dixon Podcast. 467 00:24:15,240 --> 00:24:19,760 Speaker 1: I've heard stories of Border patrol agents that are just saying, look, 468 00:24:19,960 --> 00:24:23,240 Speaker 1: I'm I'm buying as I have formula in my truck. 469 00:24:23,600 --> 00:24:26,239 Speaker 1: I make sure I have water with me. I'm just 470 00:24:26,280 --> 00:24:29,800 Speaker 1: there to make sure people are not dying. Like you said, 471 00:24:29,800 --> 00:24:33,000 Speaker 1: you saw your brother, saw the mother and the child. 472 00:24:33,520 --> 00:24:37,000 Speaker 1: I mean, these people are seeing this is the desert. 473 00:24:37,480 --> 00:24:38,240 Speaker 1: This is the desert. 474 00:24:38,280 --> 00:24:38,840 Speaker 2: They don't care. 475 00:24:39,080 --> 00:24:42,920 Speaker 1: These guys with the AK forty sevens and the ten 476 00:24:42,960 --> 00:24:45,200 Speaker 1: thousand dollars payments per head, they don't care if you 477 00:24:45,280 --> 00:24:45,959 Speaker 1: love or die. 478 00:24:46,119 --> 00:24:49,520 Speaker 3: No, they don't. All they see is green money. That's it. 479 00:24:49,520 --> 00:24:51,639 Speaker 3: It's all they want. Is funny, And I noticed that 480 00:24:51,680 --> 00:24:54,800 Speaker 3: one in Brian's trial, the guy talked about they asked 481 00:24:54,840 --> 00:24:56,399 Speaker 3: him why he did it, and that was one of 482 00:24:56,440 --> 00:25:00,119 Speaker 3: the reasons. The money they get, like you said, one 483 00:25:00,160 --> 00:25:05,200 Speaker 3: thousand dollars a day, you know, anywhere from two thousand 484 00:25:05,200 --> 00:25:07,879 Speaker 3: to ten thousand dollars a load. That's what they're getting. 485 00:25:08,040 --> 00:25:10,000 Speaker 1: It's a massive amount of money. And I think that's 486 00:25:10,000 --> 00:25:12,479 Speaker 1: the thing that people don't understand. It's a huge business. 487 00:25:12,520 --> 00:25:15,200 Speaker 1: And so when people say, well, we have an open border, 488 00:25:15,320 --> 00:25:18,959 Speaker 1: I always say, we actually don't have an open border. 489 00:25:19,000 --> 00:25:21,880 Speaker 1: We have a border completely controlled by the cartels, by 490 00:25:21,920 --> 00:25:26,480 Speaker 1: these criminal organizations. And you talk about what would border 491 00:25:26,480 --> 00:25:29,160 Speaker 1: patrol do, when I mean, what is border patrol doing? Now? 492 00:25:29,280 --> 00:25:33,160 Speaker 1: Now you have this, Biden has finally stepped up because 493 00:25:33,200 --> 00:25:36,520 Speaker 1: he saw I mean, that's the funny thing. Biden was 494 00:25:36,640 --> 00:25:39,639 Speaker 1: pretending he didn't care about the border that entire time, 495 00:25:39,960 --> 00:25:42,439 Speaker 1: but then he saw that it was polling badly. So 496 00:25:42,520 --> 00:25:44,880 Speaker 1: he signs the executive order. And now they're coming after 497 00:25:44,920 --> 00:25:47,439 Speaker 1: Trump and saying he stopped the border bill. The border 498 00:25:47,440 --> 00:25:50,760 Speaker 1: bill was bad. The border bill was still allowing what 499 00:25:51,000 --> 00:25:53,920 Speaker 1: twenty five hundred people a day to come across the border. 500 00:25:54,160 --> 00:25:57,119 Speaker 1: The border bill was not protecting us. It was not 501 00:25:57,280 --> 00:25:59,880 Speaker 1: making sure that we were safe. And that's the part 502 00:26:00,119 --> 00:26:02,920 Speaker 1: the media never talks about. It frustrates me so badly 503 00:26:03,600 --> 00:26:06,879 Speaker 1: when the media has somebody on from the Democrat side 504 00:26:06,880 --> 00:26:10,600 Speaker 1: and they go, well, Trump stopped the bipartisan border bill 505 00:26:10,920 --> 00:26:13,600 Speaker 1: just because you duped a couple of Republicans into signing 506 00:26:13,640 --> 00:26:15,920 Speaker 1: on to something does not make it bipartisan. 507 00:26:16,040 --> 00:26:19,159 Speaker 2: It does. I think people are mistaken when they hear. 508 00:26:19,040 --> 00:26:21,960 Speaker 1: That, they go, oh, he Actually there were both sides 509 00:26:21,960 --> 00:26:24,360 Speaker 1: agreed on this. No, there were a few people who said, yeah, 510 00:26:24,359 --> 00:26:26,360 Speaker 1: I'll sign on to that in desperation. 511 00:26:26,680 --> 00:26:27,920 Speaker 2: It was a horrible bill. 512 00:26:28,760 --> 00:26:31,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, And you know, and then then there's there's Republicans 513 00:26:31,640 --> 00:26:34,360 Speaker 3: too that sided with that too. You know, there's yeah, 514 00:26:34,640 --> 00:26:36,240 Speaker 3: it's it's at both sides. 515 00:26:36,920 --> 00:26:41,080 Speaker 1: Right and and and it wasn't good. It was It 516 00:26:41,160 --> 00:26:44,880 Speaker 1: wasn't because John Donald Trump wants the border to continue 517 00:26:44,920 --> 00:26:47,600 Speaker 1: to be bad. Once you enshrine that into law, it's 518 00:26:47,640 --> 00:26:50,080 Speaker 1: a real problem when you have a bad bill that 519 00:26:50,200 --> 00:26:52,480 Speaker 1: is enshrined in law. You don't you don't want to 520 00:26:52,520 --> 00:26:55,119 Speaker 1: do that. I just I think people don't like to 521 00:26:55,160 --> 00:26:58,040 Speaker 1: talk about that. But before we go, tell me about 522 00:26:58,119 --> 00:26:59,320 Speaker 1: the Brian Terry Foundation. 523 00:26:59,800 --> 00:27:04,560 Speaker 3: Well, it's ran by my two sisters and Malcarell. It 524 00:27:04,600 --> 00:27:07,919 Speaker 3: was started by a friend in Arizona. And what we 525 00:27:08,040 --> 00:27:12,560 Speaker 3: do is we give out scholarships to kids that want 526 00:27:12,600 --> 00:27:17,000 Speaker 3: to pursue a career in law enforcement or any kind 527 00:27:17,000 --> 00:27:19,520 Speaker 3: of law, like a lawyer, law enforcement. And I think 528 00:27:19,560 --> 00:27:23,399 Speaker 3: we're up to like seventy scholarships we gave out so far. Wow, no, 529 00:27:23,600 --> 00:27:25,320 Speaker 3: since we started it, and I think it started in 530 00:27:25,400 --> 00:27:29,240 Speaker 3: twenty twenty twelve or twenty thirteen, So. 531 00:27:29,359 --> 00:27:30,679 Speaker 2: That is so amazing. 532 00:27:30,800 --> 00:27:33,200 Speaker 1: And I think that what people need to understand is 533 00:27:33,240 --> 00:27:36,679 Speaker 1: that we so desperately need people in law enforcement. And 534 00:27:36,720 --> 00:27:39,680 Speaker 1: it's funny because I love that you mentioned lawyers, because 535 00:27:39,840 --> 00:27:43,000 Speaker 1: I think people think of law enforcement as cops. Like 536 00:27:43,119 --> 00:27:45,840 Speaker 1: if oh, I need I need somebody to enter law enforcement, 537 00:27:45,840 --> 00:27:48,520 Speaker 1: I need a cop. We need to replace our radical 538 00:27:48,560 --> 00:27:51,560 Speaker 1: attorneys general. We've got to make sure that on our 539 00:27:51,680 --> 00:27:53,919 Speaker 1: side of the aisle, we are training. 540 00:27:53,600 --> 00:27:57,119 Speaker 2: People to uphold the law legitimately. 541 00:27:57,720 --> 00:27:59,560 Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, And that's one thing I like about 542 00:28:00,400 --> 00:28:03,800 Speaker 3: Trump's running mate. You can tell he's a true patriot 543 00:28:03,880 --> 00:28:06,200 Speaker 3: because he served his country. And if you go back 544 00:28:06,200 --> 00:28:08,800 Speaker 3: at the beginning, like when the country first started, almost 545 00:28:08,880 --> 00:28:14,120 Speaker 3: all our presidents and vice presidents they served. Yes, they 546 00:28:14,160 --> 00:28:16,040 Speaker 3: served this country, so they're loyal to. 547 00:28:16,040 --> 00:28:18,160 Speaker 2: This country, right right. 548 00:28:18,359 --> 00:28:21,320 Speaker 3: I believe a lot of politicians should have that on 549 00:28:21,359 --> 00:28:22,040 Speaker 3: their background. 550 00:28:22,600 --> 00:28:25,320 Speaker 1: So yeah, I agree, I agree. I think that it 551 00:28:26,000 --> 00:28:28,880 Speaker 1: is meaningful when you have some skin in the game, 552 00:28:29,119 --> 00:28:34,119 Speaker 1: you know, and and that you genuinely want to see 553 00:28:34,880 --> 00:28:36,240 Speaker 1: the country better. 554 00:28:36,320 --> 00:28:39,680 Speaker 2: And that's and that's something that we've we've talked about. 555 00:28:39,720 --> 00:28:44,080 Speaker 1: I mean, Arizona is another case where you want to 556 00:28:44,080 --> 00:28:45,560 Speaker 1: make sure that there's. 557 00:28:45,800 --> 00:28:47,040 Speaker 2: The right people in office. 558 00:28:47,240 --> 00:28:49,960 Speaker 1: You see, the secretary of State runs her own election, 559 00:28:50,040 --> 00:28:52,440 Speaker 1: she becomes governor. You've got a radical ag. You've got 560 00:28:52,480 --> 00:28:56,520 Speaker 1: a radical ag in Michigan. You have to make sure 561 00:28:56,560 --> 00:28:58,840 Speaker 1: that we are preparing people for all of these positions. 562 00:28:58,920 --> 00:29:01,400 Speaker 1: So when I hear you say that you're giving scholarships 563 00:29:01,400 --> 00:29:03,200 Speaker 1: for people to go to law school, I love it 564 00:29:03,280 --> 00:29:05,800 Speaker 1: because I'm like, Okay, good, we need we need good 565 00:29:05,800 --> 00:29:08,400 Speaker 1: people going to law school. We need good attorneys out there, 566 00:29:08,400 --> 00:29:10,640 Speaker 1: and hopefully at some point we'll get people that want 567 00:29:10,640 --> 00:29:12,840 Speaker 1: to be involved in service as well. 568 00:29:13,080 --> 00:29:16,000 Speaker 3: Oh yeah, and we like my sisters were, they're they're 569 00:29:16,040 --> 00:29:18,400 Speaker 3: doing a good job at the foundation.

And that is helping folks to go 574 00:29:31,200 --> 00:29:33,880 Speaker 1: into law enforcement in all different areas of law enforcement, 575 00:29:33,920 --> 00:29:37,000 Speaker 1: and it's so important for us. I was just saying 576 00:29:37,040 --> 00:29:39,520 Speaker 1: earlier today, I was on TV and they were saying, well, 577 00:29:39,520 --> 00:29:42,479 Speaker 1: what what do you think about Trump coming and talking 578 00:29:42,480 --> 00:29:44,600 Speaker 1: to law enforcement in the state of Michigan, And I'm like, 579 00:29:44,640 --> 00:29:47,520 Speaker 1: you got to understand, Michigan was just listed as the 580 00:29:47,560 --> 00:29:50,240 Speaker 1: second most violent state in the country. You and I 581 00:29:50,280 --> 00:29:53,360 Speaker 1: were talking about the borders on both sides being a problem. 582 00:29:53,640 --> 00:29:56,520 Speaker 1: We know that we've got people coming across the Canadian 583 00:29:56,520 --> 00:29:59,120 Speaker 1: border that are on the terror watch list. We already 584 00:29:59,200 --> 00:30:03,080 Speaker 1: have problems with no in this state, and we lost 585 00:30:03,120 --> 00:30:06,000 Speaker 1: three police officers over the summer in a less than 586 00:30:06,040 --> 00:30:08,680 Speaker 1: a thirty day period. We lost three police officers in 587 00:30:08,760 --> 00:30:11,520 Speaker 1: the state of Michigan. So I think it's pretty important 588 00:30:11,560 --> 00:30:13,920 Speaker 1: that we talk about law enforcement, that we support our 589 00:30:14,000 --> 00:30:16,720 Speaker 1: law enforcement, and we make sure people continue to want 590 00:30:16,760 --> 00:30:18,480 Speaker 1: to join our law enforcement officers. 591 00:30:18,840 --> 00:30:21,080 Speaker 3: I'm a big support of law enforcement. I got family 592 00:30:21,120 --> 00:30:24,840 Speaker 3: members from Detroit police to Michigan State Police, to the 593 00:30:24,920 --> 00:30:27,760 Speaker 3: border down in South and all over in Michigan. I 594 00:30:27,800 --> 00:30:29,720 Speaker 3: got family members that are law enforcement. 595 00:30:30,680 --> 00:30:32,640 Speaker 1: Well, thank you so much, thank you for what you 596 00:30:32,680 --> 00:30:36,520 Speaker 1: do every day. Honestly, talking about this, it means so much. 597 00:30:37,200 --> 00:30:39,280 Speaker 1: When I first, like I said, when I first learned 598 00:30:39,400 --> 00:30:40,920 Speaker 1: about Angel families. 599 00:30:40,960 --> 00:30:43,240 Speaker 2: I was like, oh my gosh, how could this be? 600 00:30:43,440 --> 00:30:45,440 Speaker 1: How do we have so many people in this category? 601 00:30:45,440 --> 00:30:48,479 Speaker 1: And as you've said, it's become more and more. And 602 00:30:48,600 --> 00:30:50,160 Speaker 1: I've talked to some of the women in some of 603 00:30:50,200 --> 00:30:53,720 Speaker 1: the groups that support angel families and they're like, we 604 00:30:54,440 --> 00:30:57,200 Speaker 1: love that we know each other. We don't want anybody 605 00:30:57,240 --> 00:30:58,160 Speaker 1: else to join this club. 606 00:30:58,280 --> 00:31:01,800 Speaker 3: You know, it's a by the tight Bond family right right, 607 00:31:01,880 --> 00:31:04,400 Speaker 3: their angel families because I can, I can go to 608 00:31:04,480 --> 00:31:07,040 Speaker 3: DC and meet an angel family and I only have 609 00:31:07,080 --> 00:31:09,280 Speaker 3: to say nothing.
