Now, 5 00:00:12,680 --> 00:00:17,120 Speaker 1: with all the law fare and judge shopping and weaponization 6 00:00:17,360 --> 00:00:20,840 Speaker 1: that we have witnessed from the left, there are some 7 00:00:21,160 --> 00:00:25,119 Speaker 1: state attorneys general that are fighting back. We now have 8 00:00:25,239 --> 00:00:27,760 Speaker 1: in my free state of Florida, the next steps to 9 00:00:27,920 --> 00:00:32,920 Speaker 1: protect your children, and the Attorney General James Utmeyer is 10 00:00:32,960 --> 00:00:36,040 Speaker 1: going to join us in just a minute, has now 11 00:00:36,240 --> 00:00:40,480 Speaker 1: filed a lawsuit against Snap Inc. They're the operator of Snapchat, 12 00:00:40,520 --> 00:00:44,040 Speaker 1: which a lot of kids use, alleging violations of Florida law, 13 00:00:44,120 --> 00:00:47,600 Speaker 1: specifically HB three in the Florida Deceptive and Unfair Trade 14 00:00:47,640 --> 00:00:53,280 Speaker 1: Practices Act. And the complaint is asserting that Snap has 15 00:00:53,600 --> 00:00:58,040 Speaker 1: knowingly defied HB three, which prohibits social media platforms from 16 00:00:58,080 --> 00:01:02,120 Speaker 1: providing accounts to you who's under fourteen years of age 17 00:01:02,160 --> 00:01:06,800 Speaker 1: and requires parental consent for users age fourteen and fifteen. Now, 18 00:01:06,920 --> 00:01:10,640 Speaker 1: Snap is accused of failing to comply with these requirements 19 00:01:10,920 --> 00:01:16,160 Speaker 1: and using addictive design features such as infinite scrolling, push notifications, 20 00:01:16,200 --> 00:01:21,880 Speaker 1: interactive metrics that promote compulsive use among teenagers, continuing, you know, 21 00:01:22,080 --> 00:01:25,039 Speaker 1: contributing to a mental health crisis. I mean, these kids 22 00:01:25,040 --> 00:01:27,560 Speaker 1: get on social media, and this is a danger is 23 00:01:27,560 --> 00:01:30,560 Speaker 1: they get addicted very quickly to social media. And then 24 00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:34,640 Speaker 1: kids react to social media and people say mean things 25 00:01:34,640 --> 00:01:36,680 Speaker 1: to them. Trust me, if I looked at my ex 26 00:01:36,720 --> 00:01:39,400 Speaker 1: account and something I posted is going to be shot 27 00:01:39,520 --> 00:01:41,959 Speaker 1: under your dome as a door naib, and you know 28 00:01:42,040 --> 00:01:44,480 Speaker 1: whatever else they want to say. I even got accused 29 00:01:44,520 --> 00:01:47,240 Speaker 1: of being a CIA operator recently, which was pretty funny 30 00:01:47,240 --> 00:01:51,040 Speaker 1: to me. But then you have other issues where kids 31 00:01:51,080 --> 00:01:56,120 Speaker 1: are being bullied or targeted by these pervert adults that 32 00:01:56,320 --> 00:01:59,600 Speaker 1: are posing as other children, and we have those cases 33 00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:01,960 Speaker 1: that we have to deal with anyway. So in Florida, 34 00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:04,720 Speaker 1: what the Attorney General here's trying to do is seek 35 00:02:04,800 --> 00:02:08,200 Speaker 1: to compel Snap to comply with the law address their 36 00:02:08,240 --> 00:02:11,160 Speaker 1: deceptive practices. And then they do this other thing which 37 00:02:11,200 --> 00:02:14,720 Speaker 1: is really sneaky. They literally come up with how do 38 00:02:14,760 --> 00:02:20,240 Speaker 1: you describe this? They will analyze any user's patterns and 39 00:02:20,280 --> 00:02:23,520 Speaker 1: then target things that they think or believe that you'll 40 00:02:23,520 --> 00:02:26,760 Speaker 1: be interested in as a means of drawing you in 41 00:02:26,919 --> 00:02:32,480 Speaker 1: deeper and deeper and deeper into the use of their 42 00:02:32,520 --> 00:02:36,160 Speaker 1: app and anyway, the complaint, if you read it, details 43 00:02:36,200 --> 00:02:42,120 Speaker 1: how snapchats design features, including messaging, beauty filters, algorithms. The 44 00:02:42,160 --> 00:02:46,519 Speaker 1: algorithms are what help addict people are harming young people 45 00:02:46,560 --> 00:02:52,680 Speaker 1: by fostering behavioral addiction, body formia, and to exposure to 46 00:02:52,720 --> 00:02:56,799 Speaker 1: inappropriate content. And again they're also being targeted by people 47 00:02:56,800 --> 00:03:01,000 Speaker 1: that have well beyond nefarious intentions. And it does highlight 48 00:03:01,080 --> 00:03:05,040 Speaker 1: these deceptive age ratings and misleading claims about the platform 49 00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:09,720 Speaker 1: safety despite hosting mature content such as profanity, drug references, 50 00:03:10,200 --> 00:03:13,800 Speaker 1: sexual material, dangerous themes. I mean, what's on social media 51 00:03:13,919 --> 00:03:17,400 Speaker 1: is just too much. And if you're a parent, you've 52 00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:19,400 Speaker 1: got to be paying attention to what these kids do. 53 00:03:19,480 --> 00:03:21,840 Speaker 1: The other thing about snapchat is you can design it 54 00:03:21,919 --> 00:03:26,160 Speaker 1: that Okay, they receive a message and poof, it just disappears. 55 00:03:26,680 --> 00:03:28,440 Speaker 1: And if your mom and dad and you look at 56 00:03:28,560 --> 00:03:30,880 Speaker 1: what your kids might be doing on social media, it's 57 00:03:30,960 --> 00:03:33,840 Speaker 1: long gone before you ever get to that phone, and 58 00:03:33,880 --> 00:03:37,680 Speaker 1: you've got predators and drug dealers and other potential harmful 59 00:03:37,720 --> 00:03:44,800 Speaker 1: interactions facilitated by their features like snap map or fine Friends. Anyway, 60 00:03:44,840 --> 00:03:48,560 Speaker 1: the Attorney General of Florida. James Authmeyer's with us right now. James, 61 00:03:48,560 --> 00:03:50,960 Speaker 1: how are you, sir, mister Attorney General. Great to have 62 00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:51,360 Speaker 1: you back. 63 00:03:52,040 --> 00:03:54,280 Speaker 2: I'm doing great, Sean. It's a pleasure to be here 64 00:03:54,320 --> 00:03:56,240 Speaker 2: as always. Thanks for having me all right. 65 00:03:56,320 --> 00:04:00,200 Speaker 1: This really is something I don't think parents are full 66 00:04:00,320 --> 00:04:04,080 Speaker 1: tuned into. I don't think they understand how their kids 67 00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:07,640 Speaker 1: and these algorithms target their kids, get their kids addicted. 68 00:04:08,080 --> 00:04:11,920 Speaker 1: The danger for these predators that are on there, the 69 00:04:11,960 --> 00:04:15,920 Speaker 1: fact that these social media companies don't often enforce quote 70 00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:17,640 Speaker 1: even written stated policies. 71 00:04:17,720 --> 00:04:18,359 Speaker 3: So what's going on? 72 00:04:18,960 --> 00:04:21,479 Speaker 2: Yeah you said it. Well, parents at home, if you 73 00:04:21,560 --> 00:04:24,280 Speaker 2: are not already in tuned to what your your kids 74 00:04:24,320 --> 00:04:28,440 Speaker 2: are looking at the applications they're using, wake up, please 75 00:04:28,600 --> 00:04:31,920 Speaker 2: get get involved. It is very dangerous out there. We've 76 00:04:31,920 --> 00:04:35,520 Speaker 2: got evidence that these companies they they want to make 77 00:04:35,560 --> 00:04:38,599 Speaker 2: the sites more addictive. They've got the never ending scrolls, 78 00:04:38,680 --> 00:04:42,120 Speaker 2: the videos that start on their own, push notifications throughout 79 00:04:42,160 --> 00:04:46,000 Speaker 2: the day to keep kids engaged, and and incentives to 80 00:04:46,360 --> 00:04:49,560 Speaker 2: try to ensure communications are ongoing for hours a day. 81 00:04:50,080 --> 00:04:53,640 Speaker 2: And then they've got these these features like the disappearing 82 00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:58,760 Speaker 2: messages and pictures that make snap in particular a preferred 83 00:04:58,800 --> 00:05:02,440 Speaker 2: site for danger sex offenders. We've got a case I 84 00:05:02,520 --> 00:05:05,200 Speaker 2: just talked about at a press conference today where we 85 00:05:05,560 --> 00:05:08,200 Speaker 2: saw that a registered sex offender who'd been out of 86 00:05:08,200 --> 00:05:13,040 Speaker 2: incarceration for months was impersonating other people online, trying to 87 00:05:13,120 --> 00:05:16,960 Speaker 2: seduce pictures out of out of young people. And a 88 00:05:16,960 --> 00:05:19,360 Speaker 2: lot of these people they try to, you know, schedule 89 00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:22,800 Speaker 2: meetings with kids. It is dangerous. I can't say enough 90 00:05:22,800 --> 00:05:26,400 Speaker 2: to scare people at home, you know, get involved, make 91 00:05:26,480 --> 00:05:29,640 Speaker 2: the tough decision, you know, is this the appropriate age 92 00:05:29,680 --> 00:05:31,760 Speaker 2: for my child to be using this app in the 93 00:05:31,760 --> 00:05:33,800 Speaker 2: first place. And we you know, the law we passed 94 00:05:33,839 --> 00:05:36,719 Speaker 2: last year HB three made clear that we do not 95 00:05:36,839 --> 00:05:40,320 Speaker 2: want young teenagers, you know, twelve thirteen years old. They 96 00:05:40,360 --> 00:05:42,680 Speaker 2: are not permitted to have access to these sites. And 97 00:05:42,720 --> 00:05:45,040 Speaker 2: the companies need to make sure that there are proper 98 00:05:45,440 --> 00:05:47,719 Speaker 2: screening and protocols in place. And if you know, if 99 00:05:47,760 --> 00:05:51,320 Speaker 2: you're fourteen fifteen, you can have access, but it must 100 00:05:51,360 --> 00:05:55,560 Speaker 2: only be after parental approval where parents consent, and then 101 00:05:55,640 --> 00:05:58,160 Speaker 2: you know, have the opportunity to look at controls and 102 00:05:58,240 --> 00:06:01,240 Speaker 2: monitoring options that could be provided. 103 00:06:01,920 --> 00:06:05,440 Speaker 1: How bad is it in terms of these companies really 104 00:06:05,480 --> 00:06:09,960 Speaker 1: don't seem to care. In other words, there are very 105 00:06:10,240 --> 00:06:15,479 Speaker 1: very specific issues that are addressed in the law as 106 00:06:15,600 --> 00:06:20,360 Speaker 1: which is my understanding Florida Law HB three and it's 107 00:06:20,440 --> 00:06:24,719 Speaker 1: under the Florida Deceptive Unfair Trade Practices Act. Are they 108 00:06:24,960 --> 00:06:28,400 Speaker 1: just not caring or paying attention at all? Are they 109 00:06:28,440 --> 00:06:32,719 Speaker 1: making any effort at all whatsoever to adhere to the law. 110 00:06:33,520 --> 00:06:35,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't want to treat all of them the same. 111 00:06:35,960 --> 00:06:38,880 Speaker 2: There are companies that have reached out and they want 112 00:06:38,920 --> 00:06:41,760 Speaker 2: to protect kids. They do. I don't believe everybody out 113 00:06:41,760 --> 00:06:45,680 Speaker 2: here is secretly hoping to help child sex predators. But 114 00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:49,760 Speaker 2: you do have companies that after the law was passed 115 00:06:49,760 --> 00:06:52,560 Speaker 2: and signed by our governor, they have not taken the 116 00:06:52,600 --> 00:06:55,960 Speaker 2: proper measures to ensure that they are adhering to the 117 00:06:56,040 --> 00:06:59,840 Speaker 2: law and that they are ultimately protecting kids. And again, 118 00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:03,720 Speaker 2: SNAP is potentially one of the worst defenders. They want 119 00:07:03,760 --> 00:07:07,200 Speaker 2: to make the side addictive, They want to attract kids 120 00:07:07,240 --> 00:07:10,280 Speaker 2: to be on there as much as possible. They're profiting 121 00:07:10,320 --> 00:07:12,800 Speaker 2: off of, you know, the eyeball attention day in and 122 00:07:12,840 --> 00:07:17,000 Speaker 2: day out, and they they know the risks with the 123 00:07:17,040 --> 00:07:20,320 Speaker 2: disappearing messages and the opportunity for predators to come in 124 00:07:20,400 --> 00:07:22,640 Speaker 2: and send things to kids where the kids click and 125 00:07:22,680 --> 00:07:24,720 Speaker 2: don't even know what's going to be on the other side, 126 00:07:25,400 --> 00:07:27,400 Speaker 2: and they allow it to happen, and we're not going 127 00:07:27,480 --> 00:07:29,360 Speaker 2: to stand for that. We're going to hold them accountable, 128 00:07:29,640 --> 00:07:31,240 Speaker 2: and we're going to make sure that, you know, we 129 00:07:31,280 --> 00:07:33,840 Speaker 2: are the safest state in the country when it comes 130 00:07:33,840 --> 00:07:35,000 Speaker 2: to protecting families. 131 00:07:35,240 --> 00:07:36,640 Speaker 3: All right, let's talk a little bit. 132 00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:39,280 Speaker 1: If there have been any conversations with these companies and 133 00:07:39,360 --> 00:07:41,640 Speaker 1: the lead up to this that caused you to take 134 00:07:41,680 --> 00:07:42,120 Speaker 1: this action. 135 00:07:43,240 --> 00:07:46,200 Speaker 2: There have been, and you know, we're looking at multiple companies. 136 00:07:46,240 --> 00:07:50,520 Speaker 2: We issued some you know, CID investigative letters last week 137 00:07:50,560 --> 00:07:53,760 Speaker 2: in the Roadblocks, the company that young people can get 138 00:07:53,760 --> 00:07:56,800 Speaker 2: into in a social setting to play games, and we 139 00:07:56,880 --> 00:07:59,480 Speaker 2: believe that they also could be doing more to prevent 140 00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:02,800 Speaker 2: older people from pretending to be kids and you know, 141 00:08:02,880 --> 00:08:05,920 Speaker 2: conversing with other people in a dangerous fashion. So we 142 00:08:06,320 --> 00:08:10,640 Speaker 2: have had conversations, will continue to have conversations. You know, me, Sean, 143 00:08:10,960 --> 00:08:14,480 Speaker 2: I'm not looking for government to unnecessarily get in the 144 00:08:14,480 --> 00:08:16,600 Speaker 2: way of business and try to take a pound of flesh. 145 00:08:16,680 --> 00:08:19,160 Speaker 2: That's not the goal. But I do believe government has 146 00:08:19,200 --> 00:08:22,680 Speaker 2: a responsibility in limited areas to step in when there 147 00:08:22,680 --> 00:08:26,760 Speaker 2: are very serious dangers, especially to our most vulnerable like 148 00:08:26,840 --> 00:08:30,040 Speaker 2: our kids. So we will continue talking to the companies. 149 00:08:30,320 --> 00:08:33,000 Speaker 2: Hopefully the idea is not to just shut the company 150 00:08:33,040 --> 00:08:36,840 Speaker 2: down entirely. However, you know, we want to see some 151 00:08:36,920 --> 00:08:37,679 Speaker 2: changes made. 152 00:08:37,840 --> 00:08:40,760 Speaker 1: Okay, And when you have these conversations, do you think 153 00:08:40,800 --> 00:08:43,000 Speaker 1: most parents are aware? And tell me if I'm wrong 154 00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:45,720 Speaker 1: about Snapchat. It's not an app that I use. But 155 00:08:45,800 --> 00:08:49,640 Speaker 1: my understanding is you send messages to people and you 156 00:08:50,120 --> 00:08:53,960 Speaker 1: can time out. It's a time it out, so it 157 00:08:54,200 --> 00:08:57,200 Speaker 1: rases either immediately or in thirty seconds or in a 158 00:08:57,240 --> 00:09:00,920 Speaker 1: minute or two minutes. So another in words of a parent, 159 00:09:01,040 --> 00:09:05,199 Speaker 1: wanted to know what their child was communicating with in 160 00:09:05,240 --> 00:09:09,680 Speaker 1: regards to somebody else, or or do a background check 161 00:09:09,679 --> 00:09:12,400 Speaker 1: in some capacity and find out whether or not this 162 00:09:12,520 --> 00:09:16,280 Speaker 1: is a legitimate thirteen, fourteen, fifteen year old. They wouldn't 163 00:09:16,320 --> 00:09:18,360 Speaker 1: be able to do that, would they. 164 00:09:18,160 --> 00:09:22,080 Speaker 2: They would not. No, I don't think parents fully understand 165 00:09:22,200 --> 00:09:24,200 Speaker 2: what's going on on some of these sites. You know, 166 00:09:24,280 --> 00:09:27,760 Speaker 2: snap is very different from Facebook, and Facebook is very 167 00:09:27,760 --> 00:09:30,880 Speaker 2: different from some of the gaming sites. But you you 168 00:09:30,920 --> 00:09:33,760 Speaker 2: said it correctly, And I've never personally had a Snapchat 169 00:09:33,760 --> 00:09:35,760 Speaker 2: account either. I think maybe I was supposed to be 170 00:09:35,840 --> 00:09:39,840 Speaker 2: born in another generation. But yeah, these videos and pictures 171 00:09:39,840 --> 00:09:42,480 Speaker 2: and things can be sent if you don't have your 172 00:09:42,480 --> 00:09:44,920 Speaker 2: settings adjusted the right way. They can be sent to 173 00:09:44,960 --> 00:09:49,360 Speaker 2: people from anonymous other users, people that they don't have 174 00:09:49,440 --> 00:09:52,040 Speaker 2: a prior relationship with. It's not a friend from school, 175 00:09:52,080 --> 00:09:55,480 Speaker 2: it's not a family member, and without any screening, all 176 00:09:55,480 --> 00:09:57,720 Speaker 2: of a sudden, this pictures up on the screen and 177 00:09:57,800 --> 00:10:00,920 Speaker 2: it can be some horrific things. So parents should know 178 00:10:01,040 --> 00:10:03,880 Speaker 2: it's very difficult to track and monitor what's happening when 179 00:10:03,880 --> 00:10:07,320 Speaker 2: these things disappear. That's why child predators like it. And 180 00:10:07,400 --> 00:10:08,720 Speaker 2: you need to be very plugged in. 181 00:10:09,440 --> 00:10:10,320 Speaker 3: Oh you really do. 182 00:10:10,679 --> 00:10:12,440 Speaker 1: All right, quick break, we'll come back more with the 183 00:10:12,440 --> 00:10:15,760 Speaker 1: Florida Attorney General James Uthmeyer on the other side. Also 184 00:10:15,800 --> 00:10:17,679 Speaker 1: your calls coming up. Eight hundred and nine to four 185 00:10:17,679 --> 00:10:25,959 Speaker 1: to one, Shawn, As we continue straight ahead the radio show, 186 00:10:26,120 --> 00:10:29,080 Speaker 1: the mainstream media Love State. 187 00:10:30,200 --> 00:10:32,760 Speaker 2: This is the Sean Hannity Show. 188 00:10:32,960 --> 00:10:36,080 Speaker 1: All right, we continue now with the Attorney General my 189 00:10:36,120 --> 00:10:37,000 Speaker 1: free state of Florida. 190 00:10:37,120 --> 00:10:38,800 Speaker 3: James Uthmeyer's with us. All right. 191 00:10:38,880 --> 00:10:41,640 Speaker 1: I noticed that and I had the governor on recently, 192 00:10:42,200 --> 00:10:46,040 Speaker 1: and it's very frustrating to me to hear that Republicans 193 00:10:46,040 --> 00:10:50,240 Speaker 1: in Tallahassee are fighting him on the agenda that they 194 00:10:50,240 --> 00:10:54,280 Speaker 1: all ran on. And I find that very frustrating. And 195 00:10:54,400 --> 00:10:57,240 Speaker 1: there seems to be i don't know, like a mini 196 00:10:57,320 --> 00:11:00,040 Speaker 1: Republican rebellion going on. And I've noticed they tried to 197 00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:04,360 Speaker 1: drag you into this and are attacking you lately, and 198 00:11:04,400 --> 00:11:06,440 Speaker 1: I'm wondering, Okay, who side are you on here? 199 00:11:06,600 --> 00:11:07,720 Speaker 3: Can you tell us what's going on? 200 00:11:08,320 --> 00:11:08,560 Speaker 4: Yeah? 201 00:11:08,640 --> 00:11:11,680 Speaker 2: You know, with the big problems we have in our country, 202 00:11:11,800 --> 00:11:16,320 Speaker 2: especially focused on crime and immigration, you'd think everybody would 203 00:11:16,360 --> 00:11:18,560 Speaker 2: come together and want to fight for the things voters 204 00:11:18,559 --> 00:11:21,600 Speaker 2: elected them to go to Tallahassee and do. But you know, 205 00:11:21,679 --> 00:11:24,160 Speaker 2: as you know, we've got our own swamp in Tallahassee, 206 00:11:24,200 --> 00:11:26,320 Speaker 2: and you have private interests that are out and about. 207 00:11:27,080 --> 00:11:29,320 Speaker 2: You know, I'm getting attacked because I worked on the 208 00:11:29,360 --> 00:11:34,280 Speaker 2: outside to fight the dangerous Amendment three, the unrestricted marijuana 209 00:11:34,360 --> 00:11:37,400 Speaker 2: use in public that was presented last year. A lot 210 00:11:37,440 --> 00:11:40,080 Speaker 2: of big marijuana companies don't like that, but at the 211 00:11:40,160 --> 00:11:42,840 Speaker 2: end of the day, this was not marijuana use in private. 212 00:11:42,880 --> 00:11:45,600 Speaker 2: I think that's a completely different story. And of course 213 00:11:45,640 --> 00:11:47,960 Speaker 2: we've got a medicinal market where people can use it 214 00:11:48,000 --> 00:11:50,560 Speaker 2: for medical reasons. It's not easy to get it if 215 00:11:50,600 --> 00:11:53,160 Speaker 2: you need it. But here this would have been unrestricted, 216 00:11:53,200 --> 00:11:57,679 Speaker 2: where it would been restaurants, theaters, parks, probably even schools, 217 00:11:57,720 --> 00:12:00,120 Speaker 2: And I don't think that's good for the state. We've 218 00:12:00,120 --> 00:12:02,000 Speaker 2: got a really good thing going in here in Florida, 219 00:12:02,040 --> 00:12:04,320 Speaker 2: as you know, as a new resident, and you know, 220 00:12:04,320 --> 00:12:06,400 Speaker 2: I want to protect the way of life that we've got. 221 00:12:06,960 --> 00:12:09,360 Speaker 1: Well, I'm not exactly a new there's my second full 222 00:12:09,400 --> 00:12:12,080 Speaker 1: time year here, but I've had property here going back 223 00:12:12,160 --> 00:12:14,720 Speaker 1: like twenty five of twenty seven years, so I'm not 224 00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:18,480 Speaker 1: exactly a newbie. I've been a big Florida fan, but 225 00:12:18,840 --> 00:12:21,960 Speaker 1: you know, family issues kept me in a state that 226 00:12:21,960 --> 00:12:23,559 Speaker 1: I didn't want to be in for way too long 227 00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:24,520 Speaker 1: a period of time. 228 00:12:24,920 --> 00:12:27,760 Speaker 2: Yeah. Well, we're glad to have you down here. That 229 00:12:27,880 --> 00:12:30,360 Speaker 2: the state's doing well. We've got a great economy, you know, 230 00:12:30,440 --> 00:12:32,800 Speaker 2: some of the number one school systems in the country. 231 00:12:33,440 --> 00:12:36,840 Speaker 2: Under the governor's leadership, we've really moved to a great place. 232 00:12:36,920 --> 00:12:39,559 Speaker 2: And I hope our state leaders will will come in 233 00:12:39,679 --> 00:12:42,920 Speaker 2: and continue the great traditions we've started. The states in 234 00:12:42,960 --> 00:12:45,360 Speaker 2: great fiscal shape. You know, we're fighting about a tax 235 00:12:45,400 --> 00:12:49,040 Speaker 2: cut that the governor really wants to focus on property taxes. 236 00:12:49,120 --> 00:12:52,320 Speaker 2: That will you know more, you know, more directly focused 237 00:12:52,360 --> 00:12:55,319 Speaker 2: on Florida residents, as opposed to a sales tax cut 238 00:12:55,320 --> 00:12:57,680 Speaker 2: that could help out a lot of the tourists. We 239 00:12:57,760 --> 00:12:59,480 Speaker 2: love the tourists, but if they want to come here 240 00:12:59,520 --> 00:13:03,200 Speaker 2: and money, we'll take it. We'd rather focus the savings 241 00:13:03,200 --> 00:13:05,120 Speaker 2: on Florida citizens. 242 00:13:05,400 --> 00:13:06,080 Speaker 3: What do you think. 243 00:13:06,320 --> 00:13:08,480 Speaker 1: I loved the Governor's proposal when he was on the 244 00:13:08,559 --> 00:13:13,720 Speaker 1: last time. He thought that property tax taxes, especially in 245 00:13:13,800 --> 00:13:16,280 Speaker 1: the post COVID years, have gone up so dramatically that 246 00:13:16,320 --> 00:13:19,960 Speaker 1: a lot of these local municipalities have doubled their budgets, 247 00:13:20,559 --> 00:13:23,560 Speaker 1: and he thinks that there can be a significant reduction 248 00:13:23,679 --> 00:13:26,959 Speaker 1: in property taxes, but that would be a referendum that 249 00:13:27,080 --> 00:13:31,160 Speaker 1: voters would would weigh in on in I guess November 250 00:13:31,200 --> 00:13:35,079 Speaker 1: of twenty six. I love the idea, and he talked 251 00:13:35,080 --> 00:13:38,320 Speaker 1: about other ways to replace that revenue, for example, with 252 00:13:38,520 --> 00:13:41,120 Speaker 1: all the tourists and all the visitors that come to Florida. 253 00:13:41,160 --> 00:13:43,040 Speaker 1: And I can tell you whenever I go anywhere else, 254 00:13:43,440 --> 00:13:46,640 Speaker 1: I mean that they hit outside people outside that state 255 00:13:46,800 --> 00:13:49,880 Speaker 1: really really hard. And it seems appropriate to me rather 256 00:13:49,920 --> 00:13:52,040 Speaker 1: than you know, tax the people of the Free State 257 00:13:52,080 --> 00:13:54,559 Speaker 1: of Florida. I'd rather people that visit Florida pay a 258 00:13:54,600 --> 00:13:55,200 Speaker 1: little bit more. 259 00:13:55,920 --> 00:13:58,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, you're right. I mean, we've got counties now that 260 00:13:58,240 --> 00:14:01,480 Speaker 2: are bringing in three four times the revenues that they 261 00:14:01,480 --> 00:14:04,439 Speaker 2: did in the pre COVID world, and their budgets have 262 00:14:04,600 --> 00:14:06,720 Speaker 2: not not increased. In fact, you know, some of the 263 00:14:06,720 --> 00:14:09,600 Speaker 2: budgets you know, have been able to decrease as you know, 264 00:14:09,720 --> 00:14:13,439 Speaker 2: local governments take advantage of technology and find economies of 265 00:14:13,520 --> 00:14:15,800 Speaker 2: scale and things of that sort. So we need to 266 00:14:15,800 --> 00:14:18,840 Speaker 2: get that money back in the pockets of our homeowners. Yes, 267 00:14:18,920 --> 00:14:21,440 Speaker 2: it would take a ballot initiative. I think the governor, 268 00:14:21,480 --> 00:14:24,560 Speaker 2: you know, he would like to see a comprehensive study 269 00:14:24,600 --> 00:14:27,400 Speaker 2: done this year that could wrap up for legislative session 270 00:14:27,960 --> 00:14:30,000 Speaker 2: early next year where we could come up with the 271 00:14:30,080 --> 00:14:32,320 Speaker 2: right amendment get it on the ballot. I have no 272 00:14:32,480 --> 00:14:34,840 Speaker 2: doubt the voters at home would like to see this 273 00:14:34,960 --> 00:14:38,280 Speaker 2: relief and would vote for it overwhelmingly, and you know, 274 00:14:38,360 --> 00:14:41,960 Speaker 2: prevent people from from facing these really you know, significant 275 00:14:42,000 --> 00:14:44,600 Speaker 2: taxes that make it tough to live, you know, especially 276 00:14:44,640 --> 00:14:47,000 Speaker 2: if you're a middle income family in some of the 277 00:14:47,040 --> 00:14:48,280 Speaker 2: South Florida markets. 278 00:14:48,760 --> 00:14:50,800 Speaker 1: And by the way, if there is a referendum, and 279 00:14:50,840 --> 00:14:52,920 Speaker 1: there were two defeated in the last election, But if 280 00:14:52,920 --> 00:14:55,440 Speaker 1: there is, and I was with the governor, I supported 281 00:14:55,440 --> 00:14:57,960 Speaker 1: his position on both of those. But if there is 282 00:14:58,000 --> 00:15:01,560 Speaker 1: a referendum, unlowering Time says you need sixty percent of 283 00:15:01,600 --> 00:15:02,840 Speaker 1: Floridians to vote for that. 284 00:15:02,920 --> 00:15:03,200 Speaker 3: I can't. 285 00:15:03,400 --> 00:15:05,560 Speaker 1: Who would ever vote for higher property taxes? You have 286 00:15:05,600 --> 00:15:06,400 Speaker 1: to be out of your mind. 287 00:15:07,800 --> 00:15:10,480 Speaker 2: You're right, it would pass overwhelmingly. So I think we 288 00:15:10,560 --> 00:15:13,480 Speaker 2: have state leaders. We've got the obligation to come up 289 00:15:13,480 --> 00:15:15,760 Speaker 2: with a good plan and get it to the voters. 290 00:15:16,080 --> 00:15:18,600 Speaker 2: But hey, look we're fighting about tax relief. That's what 291 00:15:18,640 --> 00:15:21,720 Speaker 2: we're dealing with in Florida. We got good times coming, 292 00:15:22,080 --> 00:15:24,960 Speaker 2: better times ahead, and I'm excited to see what our 293 00:15:25,000 --> 00:15:26,280 Speaker 2: state's going to do in the future. 294 00:15:26,600 --> 00:15:29,800 Speaker 1: Oh, as usual, Florida's leading the way. It cracks me 295 00:15:29,880 --> 00:15:32,920 Speaker 1: up every time I interview with Dake Ramaswami, he basically 296 00:15:32,960 --> 00:15:35,960 Speaker 1: starts reiterating every policy adopted in Florida.

Right, So I 370 00:19:31,359 --> 00:19:35,760 Speaker 1: mentioned this earlier. Elizabeth Warren was on some podcast and 371 00:19:35,960 --> 00:19:37,440 Speaker 1: I thought it very very interesting. 372 00:19:37,800 --> 00:19:41,920 Speaker 3: Who's podcast? Sam Fragoso? Is that how you say? It's 373 00:19:41,920 --> 00:19:42,840 Speaker 3: called talk Easy? 374 00:19:43,600 --> 00:19:48,560 Speaker 1: And anyways, she's on this podcast and anyway, and you know, 375 00:19:48,640 --> 00:19:50,680 Speaker 1: he points out, you know, you set up until July 376 00:19:50,920 --> 00:19:54,879 Speaker 1: last year, noting that Warren was backing Biden up until 377 00:19:54,920 --> 00:19:57,280 Speaker 1: he about out of the twenty twenty four presidential race, 378 00:19:58,119 --> 00:20:01,920 Speaker 1: and asking about his cognitive state. Now, there's no way 379 00:20:02,000 --> 00:20:05,760 Speaker 1: anybody with a straight face and any level of intelligence 380 00:20:05,880 --> 00:20:08,000 Speaker 1: is ever going to convince me that they didn't see 381 00:20:08,480 --> 00:20:11,480 Speaker 1: everything that we were reporting since twenty twenty and that 382 00:20:11,600 --> 00:20:15,560 Speaker 1: is Joe's significant cognitive decline. And let me have played 383 00:20:15,560 --> 00:20:16,280 Speaker 1: the exchange for you. 384 00:20:16,800 --> 00:20:20,560 Speaker 6: Do you regret saying that President Biden had a mental acuity, 385 00:20:20,600 --> 00:20:22,840 Speaker 6: he had a sharpness to him. You said that up 386 00:20:22,920 --> 00:20:26,920 Speaker 6: until July of last year, I said what I believed 387 00:20:27,000 --> 00:20:29,120 Speaker 6: to be true, and you think he was as sharp 388 00:20:29,160 --> 00:20:29,439 Speaker 6: as you. 389 00:20:30,640 --> 00:20:34,520 Speaker 7: I said I had not seen decline, and I hadn't 390 00:20:34,960 --> 00:20:35,560 Speaker 7: at that point. 391 00:20:35,640 --> 00:20:37,920 Speaker 6: You did not see any decline from twenty twenty four 392 00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:41,680 Speaker 6: Joe Biden to twenty twenty one Joe Biden when I said. 393 00:20:41,440 --> 00:20:50,000 Speaker 7: That the thing is heap. Look, he was sharp. He 394 00:20:50,200 --> 00:20:53,000 Speaker 7: was on his feet. I saw him, Oh y live event. 395 00:20:53,320 --> 00:20:55,640 Speaker 7: I had meetings with him a couple of times. 396 00:20:55,720 --> 00:21:01,399 Speaker 6: Senator on his feet is not praise. He can speak 397 00:21:01,440 --> 00:21:03,640 Speaker 6: in sentences, is not praised. 398 00:21:04,080 --> 00:21:05,480 Speaker 7: Fair enough, fair. 399 00:21:05,359 --> 00:21:11,240 Speaker 1: Enough, fair enough, fair enough. He was a cognitive mess 400 00:21:12,200 --> 00:21:15,159 Speaker 1: and she knew it. That's why she's a hummed a hummada, 401 00:21:15,200 --> 00:21:20,439 Speaker 1: hummada humma in that interview. Uh, funny viral video. I 402 00:21:20,480 --> 00:21:22,280 Speaker 1: saw this on Foxnews dot com. 403 00:21:22,800 --> 00:21:23,320 Speaker 3: Uh. 404 00:21:23,760 --> 00:21:27,560 Speaker 1: You know, now, Chucky Schumer and his poll numbers that 405 00:21:27,640 --> 00:21:31,919 Speaker 1: came out today are just abysmal. He's getting slaughtered by 406 00:21:31,960 --> 00:21:35,119 Speaker 1: AOC in New York. He's in he's in deep political trouble. 407 00:21:35,200 --> 00:21:38,760 Speaker 1: His days may be numbered, but anyway, it's gone viral, 408 00:21:38,840 --> 00:21:42,800 Speaker 1: this old video of Schumer. Uh, he knew that Trump 409 00:21:42,920 --> 00:21:46,040 Speaker 1: was going to go places and people are you know, 410 00:21:46,359 --> 00:21:50,080 Speaker 1: just caught onto it, and I'm playing a lot of it. 411 00:21:50,119 --> 00:21:51,840 Speaker 1: Here's here anyway, here's what was said. 412 00:21:52,480 --> 00:21:55,439 Speaker 8: I was born in Brooklyn, the same place where Donald 413 00:21:55,440 --> 00:22:00,720 Speaker 8: Trump's family comes from. His father and my grandfather builders 414 00:22:00,720 --> 00:22:04,479 Speaker 8: together in Brooklyn. Yeah, even when he was much younger, 415 00:22:04,520 --> 00:22:06,560 Speaker 8: you knew that he was going to go places. 416 00:22:06,880 --> 00:22:08,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, you knew he was going to go Yeah, he 417 00:22:08,640 --> 00:22:10,359 Speaker 1: went to the White House, and you're about to be 418 00:22:10,480 --> 00:22:12,920 Speaker 1: thrown out of the Senate in New York. Anyway, his 419 00:22:13,119 --> 00:22:17,240 Speaker 1: favorable rating now thirty nine percent, unfavorable rating fifty percent. 420 00:22:18,440 --> 00:22:21,280 Speaker 1: This according to the latest Siena College poll that came 421 00:22:21,320 --> 00:22:21,760 Speaker 1: out now. 422 00:22:21,840 --> 00:22:22,800 Speaker 3: It happens to be the. 423 00:22:22,800 --> 00:22:26,760 Speaker 1: Worst showing by Schumer in over twenty years that Siena 424 00:22:26,800 --> 00:22:30,480 Speaker 1: College has been conducting polls in New York State. And 425 00:22:30,920 --> 00:22:34,920 Speaker 1: while his unfavorable rating, you know, it's more than sixty 426 00:22:34,960 --> 00:22:40,440 Speaker 1: six percent, he saw his standing with Democrats fall dramatically. 427 00:22:41,000 --> 00:22:45,280 Speaker 1: And meanwhile, simultaneously, AOC's numbers they're just beginning to soar. 428 00:22:46,040 --> 00:22:49,679 Speaker 1: And I think people aliking the idea of AOC maybe 429 00:22:49,720 --> 00:22:53,320 Speaker 1: replacing Schumer if she decides not to run for president 430 00:22:53,920 --> 00:22:57,280 Speaker 1: in the US Senate. So that's getting interesting. All right, 431 00:22:57,359 --> 00:23:00,359 Speaker 1: let's get to our busy phones. Joe, Long Island's speaking 432 00:23:00,359 --> 00:23:02,560 Speaker 1: in New York. What's up, Joe? How are you glad 433 00:23:02,600 --> 00:23:04,199 Speaker 1: you called, sir? Where are you in Long Island? 434 00:23:04,800 --> 00:23:06,400 Speaker 9: Pretty good? One over in Seaviel. 435 00:23:06,720 --> 00:23:10,400 Speaker 3: But no, I lived there for a while, in Bayport. 436 00:23:10,560 --> 00:23:13,040 Speaker 3: Not right next door to you, right, yeah, right next 437 00:23:13,040 --> 00:23:13,359 Speaker 3: door there. 438 00:23:13,640 --> 00:23:16,920 Speaker 1: Then when I started at Fox, I lived out in Bayport, 439 00:23:17,280 --> 00:23:19,439 Speaker 1: and I took the train every day, the Long Island Railroad. 440 00:23:19,440 --> 00:23:21,760 Speaker 1: It was a long trip every day, uh, and we 441 00:23:21,800 --> 00:23:25,600 Speaker 1: would save o saveles, next savel And then I became 442 00:23:25,600 --> 00:23:27,600 Speaker 1: friends with the conductor and he used to let me 443 00:23:27,640 --> 00:23:30,920 Speaker 1: some nights do it on you know, on the loud speaker. 444 00:23:31,520 --> 00:23:34,679 Speaker 1: I'd be like, all right, savelel next next up, saveles 445 00:23:34,720 --> 00:23:35,200 Speaker 1: coming up. 446 00:23:35,240 --> 00:23:36,720 Speaker 3: That's how he'd say. It's pretty funny. 447 00:23:37,400 --> 00:23:37,640 Speaker 4: Yep. 448 00:23:37,680 --> 00:23:39,800 Speaker 9: No, I don't envy you. I actually drive it. I'd 449 00:23:39,840 --> 00:23:41,080 Speaker 9: rather do that than take the train. 450 00:23:41,200 --> 00:23:45,840 Speaker 1: But but well, I eventually got chased from car to 451 00:23:45,960 --> 00:23:48,960 Speaker 1: car to car by some lunatic screaming that I'm ruining 452 00:23:49,000 --> 00:23:52,560 Speaker 1: the world, and I realized my days going on uh 453 00:23:52,680 --> 00:23:55,720 Speaker 1: public transportation were over. And then I started to make 454 00:23:55,760 --> 00:23:58,360 Speaker 1: the drive every day, which is a pretty long ride. 455 00:23:58,640 --> 00:24:02,159 Speaker 9: Yeah, I'm calling anyway, because you know, I've been teaching 456 00:24:02,200 --> 00:24:06,200 Speaker 9: for about thirty years or so, and you know, come 457 00:24:06,200 --> 00:24:09,480 Speaker 9: across over the years, a lot of students that taught 458 00:24:09,520 --> 00:24:11,320 Speaker 9: first in Patterson for a number of years and then 459 00:24:11,400 --> 00:24:14,720 Speaker 9: New York City, a lot of students that get involved 460 00:24:14,760 --> 00:24:18,800 Speaker 9: with gangs. And I know that, you know, everybody talks 461 00:24:18,800 --> 00:24:21,840 Speaker 9: about with mister Braco Garcia or some of these you 462 00:24:21,880 --> 00:24:25,600 Speaker 9: know other illegal immigrants here that well, they don't have 463 00:24:25,640 --> 00:24:30,040 Speaker 9: the look of looking like a gang member. But you know, 464 00:24:30,080 --> 00:24:33,359 Speaker 9: because they don't have specific tattoos, they don't have specific 465 00:24:33,440 --> 00:24:38,720 Speaker 9: marketings on them. But that's not necessarily you know, what 466 00:24:38,800 --> 00:24:42,280 Speaker 9: a gang member looks like. I remember back in pre 467 00:24:42,400 --> 00:24:43,600 Speaker 9: nine eleven days. 468 00:24:44,160 --> 00:24:46,720 Speaker 1: The tattoos that have become such a big issue. They're 469 00:24:46,720 --> 00:24:50,760 Speaker 1: really it's only one indicator of what are many indicators. 470 00:24:51,400 --> 00:24:55,360 Speaker 1: And in the case of Garcia, I mean there were 471 00:24:55,600 --> 00:25:01,119 Speaker 1: numerous indicators, including people that ratted them out exactly. 472 00:25:01,720 --> 00:25:03,919 Speaker 9: And you know we used to have in Patterson. There 473 00:25:03,960 --> 00:25:08,160 Speaker 9: used to be this big gang, the Latin Kings, and 474 00:25:08,600 --> 00:25:09,040 Speaker 9: we had. 475 00:25:08,880 --> 00:25:11,600 Speaker 1: This I know them well, I mean I remember, you know, 476 00:25:11,680 --> 00:25:13,680 Speaker 1: they were a menace, no doubt about it. 477 00:25:14,320 --> 00:25:16,159 Speaker 9: Yeah, but we had this one student, and he was 478 00:25:16,200 --> 00:25:22,000 Speaker 9: a honor student. He's very polite and very respectful, came 479 00:25:22,119 --> 00:25:25,359 Speaker 9: very well dressed to school every day. And then we 480 00:25:25,400 --> 00:25:29,800 Speaker 9: had one day in school police came in and came 481 00:25:29,800 --> 00:25:32,080 Speaker 9: into the classroom, took him out of the class, and 482 00:25:32,080 --> 00:25:34,879 Speaker 9: the rested him because it ended up that he was 483 00:25:35,800 --> 00:25:38,720 Speaker 9: one of the regional leaders of the Latin Kings. And 484 00:25:38,800 --> 00:25:41,159 Speaker 9: I remember that day we were all like in shock 485 00:25:42,640 --> 00:25:46,560 Speaker 9: because you know, you never would have suspected, like I said, 486 00:25:46,600 --> 00:25:49,840 Speaker 9: based on he was an honor student straight A's the 487 00:25:49,880 --> 00:25:51,920 Speaker 9: way he dressed, the way he was respectful to the 488 00:25:52,040 --> 00:25:56,320 Speaker 9: teachers and everything, and yet you know behind the scenes 489 00:25:57,160 --> 00:25:59,840 Speaker 9: he was very active with the Latin Kings like that. 490 00:26:01,040 --> 00:26:03,720 Speaker 1: So you can't always judge a book by its cover. 491 00:26:04,080 --> 00:26:07,840 Speaker 1: I mean, there's there's no doubt. Now do I think 492 00:26:07,920 --> 00:26:10,879 Speaker 1: that some of the images and pictures that I've seen 493 00:26:11,000 --> 00:26:15,359 Speaker 1: of these heavily tatted, face tatted guys, that does it 494 00:26:15,520 --> 00:26:19,320 Speaker 1: necessarily mean they're bad? People know, if they have MS 495 00:26:19,440 --> 00:26:23,840 Speaker 1: thirteen or trendy Arragua insigny is tattooed into them, I'd 496 00:26:23,840 --> 00:26:26,439 Speaker 1: say that's probably a pretty good indicator. I doubt the 497 00:26:26,520 --> 00:26:29,280 Speaker 1: average person is going to go to a tattoo artist 498 00:26:29,280 --> 00:26:32,320 Speaker 1: and say, can I have an MS thirteen gang member tattoo? 499 00:26:33,359 --> 00:26:35,720 Speaker 1: I think that would be very very specific for an 500 00:26:35,760 --> 00:26:39,800 Speaker 1: individual involved in the gang. But again, it's only one factor, 501 00:26:40,000 --> 00:26:42,000 Speaker 1: and it's not the determining factor. 502 00:26:42,960 --> 00:26:46,040 Speaker 9: No, exactly. And that's why I wouldn't be surprised, you know, 503 00:26:47,080 --> 00:26:49,160 Speaker 9: when things eventually come out, you know. 504 00:26:50,880 --> 00:26:53,160 Speaker 1: I think we already know the answer to what you're 505 00:26:53,240 --> 00:26:55,960 Speaker 1: what you're bringing up here. I think that this we 506 00:26:56,000 --> 00:26:59,679 Speaker 1: have two judges determined and ascertain. Number one, we know 507 00:26:59,720 --> 00:27:02,760 Speaker 1: he's in the country illegally. We know in his wife's 508 00:27:02,800 --> 00:27:05,960 Speaker 1: own handwriting and complaint to police, she claimed he was 509 00:27:06,000 --> 00:27:10,520 Speaker 1: a wife beater. And we have two judges that determined 510 00:27:10,640 --> 00:27:12,800 Speaker 1: that he was a member of MS thirteen. What else 511 00:27:12,840 --> 00:27:15,399 Speaker 1: do you need? And why has this become the cause 512 00:27:15,440 --> 00:27:18,359 Speaker 1: to love for Democrats? That's the sick part, all right? 513 00:27:18,440 --> 00:27:21,160 Speaker 1: My friend, appreciate the call. Glad you are out there. 514 00:27:21,240 --> 00:27:23,520 Speaker 1: Mark and North Carolina? Hey, Mark, how are you? Glad 515 00:27:23,560 --> 00:27:23,960 Speaker 1: you called? 516 00:27:24,840 --> 00:27:26,480 Speaker 4: Hey, Sean, thanks for taking my call. 517 00:27:27,400 --> 00:27:27,720 Speaker 3: Thank you. 518 00:27:27,760 --> 00:27:32,720 Speaker 4: What's going on as far as Kilmar goes. Don't we 519 00:27:32,800 --> 00:27:35,320 Speaker 4: have an embassy in El Salvador? 520 00:27:36,520 --> 00:27:37,320 Speaker 3: I believe we do. 521 00:27:37,440 --> 00:27:41,439 Speaker 4: Yes, Yeah, aren't embassies considered US soil. 522 00:27:43,280 --> 00:27:46,479 Speaker 3: Um, yes, and no, I'm not. I'm not. 523 00:27:46,560 --> 00:27:51,320 Speaker 1: I can't really not necessarily, not necessary. It's not like 524 00:27:51,359 --> 00:27:55,320 Speaker 1: the Panama Canal Zone where John McCain was born. Remember, 525 00:27:55,359 --> 00:27:57,120 Speaker 1: you have to be a naturalized citizen to be able 526 00:27:57,119 --> 00:27:59,600 Speaker 1: to run for president. I'm not sure that that would 527 00:27:59,640 --> 00:28:04,919 Speaker 1: qualify unless you you were an ambassador and your child 528 00:28:05,040 --> 00:28:09,000 Speaker 1: was born there. I would assume that implies American citizenship 529 00:28:09,000 --> 00:28:10,160 Speaker 1: and would apply in that case. 530 00:28:11,359 --> 00:28:14,480 Speaker 4: Well, if you're in trouble in a foreign country, you 531 00:28:14,560 --> 00:28:19,080 Speaker 4: go to the US embassy because American soil, it's deemed 532 00:28:19,080 --> 00:28:21,119 Speaker 4: as American soil, because. 533 00:28:20,960 --> 00:28:26,280 Speaker 1: It is deemed as an American America Protected area. Do 534 00:28:26,400 --> 00:28:30,000 Speaker 1: I know specifically if it's considered American soil? I don't. 535 00:28:30,560 --> 00:28:32,840 Speaker 1: I think in some cases it's not. I remember this 536 00:28:32,880 --> 00:28:34,960 Speaker 1: came up a number of years ago. But for all 537 00:28:35,000 --> 00:28:38,840 Speaker 1: intent and purposes, I understand for the application of this call, 538 00:28:38,920 --> 00:28:39,600 Speaker 1: let's say you're. 539 00:28:39,520 --> 00:28:45,440 Speaker 4: Right, okay, then why not send anough because I think 540 00:28:45,480 --> 00:28:48,800 Speaker 4: this would be so much easier. Send another immigration judge 541 00:28:49,080 --> 00:28:52,800 Speaker 4: down to the embassy and bring Willmar Killmar over there 542 00:28:53,240 --> 00:28:55,800 Speaker 4: and have him adjudicated there instead of bringing him back 543 00:28:56,400 --> 00:28:58,000 Speaker 4: to the United States proper. 544 00:28:58,760 --> 00:29:01,760 Speaker 3: He was already Judah twice. I mean, this is the 545 00:29:01,760 --> 00:29:02,320 Speaker 3: big lie. 546 00:29:02,800 --> 00:29:05,760 Speaker 4: This would make what's his name from Maryland happy? 547 00:29:06,880 --> 00:29:09,240 Speaker 1: Oh, nothing's going to make this guy happy unless he 548 00:29:09,280 --> 00:29:11,360 Speaker 1: comes back to the US. But I guarantee you one 549 00:29:11,360 --> 00:29:13,480 Speaker 1: thing that's not going to happen. Let's say, if if 550 00:29:13,520 --> 00:29:16,880 Speaker 1: these four congressmen and ven Holland are successful, I can 551 00:29:16,880 --> 00:29:19,680 Speaker 1: promise you one thing that Garcia is not going to 552 00:29:19,760 --> 00:29:22,160 Speaker 1: live with any five of them. He's not going to 553 00:29:22,160 --> 00:29:24,560 Speaker 1: be invited to stay in their home. And then you 554 00:29:24,560 --> 00:29:26,800 Speaker 1: have to ask the question, well, why not? And I 555 00:29:26,800 --> 00:29:29,280 Speaker 1: think the answer is obvious, and I think it speaks volumes. 556 00:29:29,320 --> 00:29:31,760 Speaker 1: There are all a bunch of hypocrites. I appreciate you 557 00:29:31,840 --> 00:29:34,760 Speaker 1: call Ken in California. Ken, How are you glad you called? 558 00:29:34,800 --> 00:29:35,960 Speaker 1: By the way, we have a lot of news out 559 00:29:35,960 --> 00:29:37,440 Speaker 1: of California today. You want to hear it? 560 00:29:37,920 --> 00:29:38,120 Speaker 7: Yeah? 561 00:29:38,160 --> 00:29:38,480 Speaker 2: Why not? 562 00:29:39,680 --> 00:29:40,120 Speaker 3: All right? 563 00:29:40,160 --> 00:29:43,960 Speaker 1: So Gavin Newsome, your governor, your radical left wing governor, 564 00:29:44,000 --> 00:29:46,800 Speaker 1: spoke to the Hill this week complaining that the party, 565 00:29:46,880 --> 00:29:49,520 Speaker 1: the Democratic Party, is not reckoned with their failures in 566 00:29:49,560 --> 00:29:53,120 Speaker 1: the twenty twenty four election, is unsure of what it 567 00:29:53,240 --> 00:29:56,080 Speaker 1: stood for. I don't know what the party is I'm 568 00:29:56,120 --> 00:29:59,840 Speaker 1: still struggling with that. He further commented that I'm marginally 569 00:30:00,120 --> 00:30:03,520 Speaker 1: part of this party. I represent the state larger than 570 00:30:03,520 --> 00:30:06,760 Speaker 1: twenty one state populations combined. I can assure you there's 571 00:30:06,800 --> 00:30:09,320 Speaker 1: not been a party discussion that I'm aware of that 572 00:30:09,400 --> 00:30:12,880 Speaker 1: has included the state of California. I think what he's 573 00:30:12,920 --> 00:30:17,800 Speaker 1: trying to do is positioned himself for maybe some type 574 00:30:17,840 --> 00:30:20,160 Speaker 1: of run for the presidency. He's got all eyes on 575 00:30:20,200 --> 00:30:22,920 Speaker 1: the presidency. But he's got a big problem. He's got 576 00:30:22,920 --> 00:30:25,800 Speaker 1: a record, and his record is radical left. But if 577 00:30:25,800 --> 00:30:28,040 Speaker 1: he wants to run, either as a Democrat or independent, 578 00:30:28,440 --> 00:30:31,480 Speaker 1: I'm fine with it because I think he'd easily be defeated. 579 00:30:32,040 --> 00:30:35,120 Speaker 1: I'll give you another story just thenews dot com John Solomon. 580 00:30:37,280 --> 00:30:39,680 Speaker 1: He may have some explaining to do, if you will, 581 00:30:40,480 --> 00:30:43,680 Speaker 1: about the people he appointed to the parole board, because 582 00:30:43,760 --> 00:30:47,360 Speaker 1: the California Border Parole Hearings just ordered the release of 583 00:30:47,400 --> 00:30:51,800 Speaker 1: a convicted child murderer, this guy, mister Herrera, who was 584 00:30:51,800 --> 00:30:54,160 Speaker 1: found to have beaten his girlfriend's two year old son 585 00:30:54,240 --> 00:30:57,280 Speaker 1: to death, and k Newsom's parole board claimed that Herrera 586 00:30:57,320 --> 00:30:59,760 Speaker 1: had shown remorse and is no longer a risk to public. 587 00:30:59,760 --> 00:31:02,640 Speaker 3: Say, I think he's got a lot of explaining to do. 588 00:31:02,760 --> 00:31:06,040 Speaker 1: But anyway, that's the news from Lake Wobegone, the United 589 00:31:06,120 --> 00:31:08,760 Speaker 1: Socialist Topia that is your home state of California. 590 00:31:09,400 --> 00:31:12,760 Speaker 2: Well, Gavin Newsom's a dang chameleon. He changes color with 591 00:31:12,800 --> 00:31:14,080 Speaker 2: whatever tree he's attached to. 592 00:31:15,720 --> 00:31:15,959 Speaker 3: You know. 593 00:31:17,160 --> 00:31:23,080 Speaker 1: The sad reality is he'd probably still today get elected 594 00:31:23,080 --> 00:31:26,240 Speaker 1: if he was running for reelection. If Kamala runs, I 595 00:31:26,280 --> 00:31:31,120 Speaker 1: think she'll win. That's sad. That tells me that anybody 596 00:31:31,200 --> 00:31:35,360 Speaker 1: with any common sense left and there's just not enough 597 00:31:35,440 --> 00:31:39,600 Speaker 1: people in California with enough common sense to realize that 598 00:31:39,840 --> 00:31:43,960 Speaker 1: this blue state and Democrat dominated state for decades has 599 00:31:44,560 --> 00:31:46,160 Speaker 1: hurt the people of their own state. 600 00:31:47,000 --> 00:31:49,680 Speaker 2: Well, where I'm at up in the mountains, Larry Elder 601 00:31:49,720 --> 00:31:51,440 Speaker 2: won the recall in our county. 602 00:31:52,560 --> 00:31:55,000 Speaker 1: So yeah, well, I mean he would have been a 603 00:31:55,000 --> 00:31:59,640 Speaker 1: great governor in my opinion, he really would have. Anyway, 604 00:31:59,640 --> 00:32:01,800 Speaker 1: my friend, I appreciate the call. Good luck out there 605 00:32:02,440 --> 00:32:06,440 Speaker 1: watching Gavin, you know, try and be slick and smooth 606 00:32:06,800 --> 00:32:10,040 Speaker 1: and somehow reinvent himself. Is going to be fun to watch. 607 00:32:11,000 --> 00:32:13,440 Speaker 1: That's going to wrap things up for today.
