1 00:00:00,960 --> 00:00:03,920 Speaker 1: Wouldn't it be amazing if Democrats actually were willing to 2 00:00:03,960 --> 00:00:08,559 Speaker 1: fight criminals in Chicago with the same type of anger 3 00:00:08,640 --> 00:00:13,560 Speaker 1: and vigor they're using towards Donald Trump and law enforcement. Well, 4 00:00:13,600 --> 00:00:15,760 Speaker 1: the only tough talk you're getting right now out of 5 00:00:15,840 --> 00:00:22,599 Speaker 1: Chicago officials is threats of lawsuits against Donald Trump. That's right. 6 00:00:22,800 --> 00:00:27,080 Speaker 1: Illinois Governor J. D. Pritzker and the Chicago mayor Johnson 7 00:00:27,520 --> 00:00:30,760 Speaker 1: have teamed up and are not backing down. Is they 8 00:00:30,800 --> 00:00:34,080 Speaker 1: say they are angered by the idea of preparations for 9 00:00:34,159 --> 00:00:37,519 Speaker 1: what they describe as an illegal immigrant roundup that is 10 00:00:37,640 --> 00:00:42,080 Speaker 1: illegal by the Trump administration in the Windy City now. 11 00:00:42,120 --> 00:00:45,960 Speaker 1: According to an internal federal memo obtained by CBS News, 12 00:00:46,280 --> 00:00:49,239 Speaker 1: the Department of Home Insecurity has asked the Department of 13 00:00:49,280 --> 00:00:53,200 Speaker 1: Defense to house roughly two hundred and fifty federal agents 14 00:00:53,520 --> 00:00:56,640 Speaker 1: and one hundred and forty vehicles at an Illinois military 15 00:00:56,680 --> 00:01:01,200 Speaker 1: base and anticipation of an expected in in illegal alien 16 00:01:01,280 --> 00:01:07,039 Speaker 1: arrests within the Chicago area. CBS News exploding on this, 17 00:01:07,200 --> 00:01:11,000 Speaker 1: saying in a request for the assistance to the Department 18 00:01:11,040 --> 00:01:14,560 Speaker 1: of Defense, a top Homeland Security official indicated that the 19 00:01:14,680 --> 00:01:18,400 Speaker 1: Naval Station Great Lakes, the largest military base in Illinois, 20 00:01:18,680 --> 00:01:21,560 Speaker 1: and the Navy's largest training station would be used as 21 00:01:21,600 --> 00:01:25,959 Speaker 1: a staging area to oversee the removal operations in the 22 00:01:26,000 --> 00:01:30,480 Speaker 1: metropolitan Chicago area targeting immigrants suspected of being in the 23 00:01:30,600 --> 00:01:34,400 Speaker 1: US illegally. Now, the President of the United States of America, 24 00:01:34,520 --> 00:01:37,480 Speaker 1: Donald Trump, was asked about this, and I want you 25 00:01:37,560 --> 00:01:39,520 Speaker 1: to hear what he had to say to a reporter 26 00:01:39,880 --> 00:01:42,360 Speaker 1: that was trying to badger him as he was leaving 27 00:01:42,400 --> 00:01:43,400 Speaker 1: for Marine one. 28 00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:46,000 Speaker 2: Market State News. 29 00:01:46,040 --> 00:01:49,480 Speaker 3: Did you say that, Jo, just stake news. 30 00:01:48,400 --> 00:01:51,440 Speaker 4: Don't listen, be quiet, listen. 31 00:01:51,840 --> 00:01:52,559 Speaker 5: You don't listen. 32 00:01:52,720 --> 00:01:53,560 Speaker 6: You're never listening. 33 00:01:53,920 --> 00:01:57,040 Speaker 4: That's why you're second grade. We're not going to war. 34 00:01:57,320 --> 00:01:58,680 Speaker 4: We're going to clean up our city. 35 00:01:59,080 --> 00:02:00,800 Speaker 3: We're going to clean them up so they don't kill 36 00:02:00,920 --> 00:02:02,160 Speaker 3: five people every weekend. 37 00:02:02,560 --> 00:02:04,640 Speaker 4: That's not war. That's common sense. 38 00:02:05,880 --> 00:02:09,480 Speaker 1: I love the last statement there by President Trump. We're 39 00:02:09,480 --> 00:02:12,040 Speaker 1: going to clean it up so they don't kill five 40 00:02:12,080 --> 00:02:17,919 Speaker 1: people every weekend. That's not war, that's common sense. Tom 41 00:02:17,960 --> 00:02:21,359 Speaker 1: Homan also asked about this on CNN Stay of the Union, 42 00:02:21,600 --> 00:02:24,480 Speaker 1: and here's what he had to say about it as well. 43 00:02:24,680 --> 00:02:27,520 Speaker 6: Joining us now to discuss is the president's borders are 44 00:02:27,639 --> 00:02:29,680 Speaker 6: Tom Homan, mister Homan. Always good to have you. So 45 00:02:30,080 --> 00:02:33,760 Speaker 6: the governor of Illinois responded to President Trump's post. He wrote, quote, 46 00:02:33,760 --> 00:02:35,880 Speaker 6: the President of the United States is threatening to go 47 00:02:35,880 --> 00:02:38,480 Speaker 6: to war with an American city. This is not a joke, 48 00:02:38,520 --> 00:02:41,080 Speaker 6: This is not normal. Donald Trump isn't a strong man, 49 00:02:41,160 --> 00:02:44,239 Speaker 6: He's a scared man. Illinois won't be intimidated by a 50 00:02:44,320 --> 00:02:47,800 Speaker 6: wanna be dictator. Unquote is President Trump planning to go 51 00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:48,720 Speaker 6: to war in Chicago. 52 00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:52,360 Speaker 5: We're going to war with illegal aliens, public safety threats 53 00:02:52,639 --> 00:02:57,680 Speaker 5: that rape children, that raped citizens, that committed armed robberies, 54 00:02:57,720 --> 00:03:01,799 Speaker 5: that the distributing narcotics kill Americans. We're at war with 55 00:03:01,840 --> 00:03:06,160 Speaker 5: the criminal cartels. And Governor Prisco protects criminal, illegal alien, 56 00:03:06,240 --> 00:03:08,400 Speaker 5: public safety threats every day in that state. Along with 57 00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:11,840 Speaker 5: Mary Johnson, we proved that the first week of the administration, 58 00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:15,120 Speaker 5: I went to Chicago. I started an operation there. The 59 00:03:15,200 --> 00:03:19,240 Speaker 5: first day, we arrested nine sexual predators, most of them 60 00:03:19,320 --> 00:03:23,239 Speaker 5: child rapists. We arrested nine members of TDA. Several of 61 00:03:23,240 --> 00:03:26,680 Speaker 5: the TDA members had a pistol, an illegal pistol with 62 00:03:26,760 --> 00:03:29,160 Speaker 5: a switch on it which makes that pistol fully automatic. 63 00:03:29,440 --> 00:03:33,000 Speaker 5: We arrested two illegal aliens that a homicide conviction. That 64 00:03:33,160 --> 00:03:35,480 Speaker 5: was the first day in Chicago. So, you know, President 65 00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:37,960 Speaker 5: Trump and this administration, Yeah, we're at war with the 66 00:03:37,960 --> 00:03:41,040 Speaker 5: criminal cartels and those who want to murder and rape 67 00:03:41,360 --> 00:03:43,080 Speaker 5: the American citizens. You' damn right. 68 00:03:43,560 --> 00:03:46,600 Speaker 1: Isn't it amazing how the media decides to spend this 69 00:03:46,720 --> 00:03:49,920 Speaker 1: story that somehow Donald Trump is going to go to 70 00:03:50,200 --> 00:03:54,400 Speaker 1: war with a American city. No, We're going to war 71 00:03:54,440 --> 00:03:57,640 Speaker 1: with the criminal legal aliens every day, no matter where 72 00:03:57,680 --> 00:04:01,640 Speaker 1: they are. And that is the Trump doctor. Now, of 73 00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:04,800 Speaker 1: course Sinnan didn't like this doctrine, right. They don't like 74 00:04:04,880 --> 00:04:10,360 Speaker 1: the fact that this administration is fighting back against criminals. 75 00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:13,000 Speaker 1: They want to act like somehow Donald Trump is a 76 00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:16,120 Speaker 1: dictator and a tyrant. And so Jake Tapper does what 77 00:04:16,240 --> 00:04:19,279 Speaker 1: Jake Tapper does. He decides to, you know, be an 78 00:04:19,279 --> 00:04:22,279 Speaker 1: elitist in grand stand with Tom Homan, and that's where 79 00:04:22,279 --> 00:04:24,320 Speaker 1: he decided to say, well, hold on a second, you 80 00:04:24,400 --> 00:04:28,120 Speaker 1: guys have been flooding the zone in Chicago, and is 81 00:04:28,160 --> 00:04:30,200 Speaker 1: that really the job of the government. 82 00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:32,640 Speaker 5: The problem marriage which are sanctuary cities. 83 00:04:32,760 --> 00:04:36,000 Speaker 6: Governor Pritzker says Illinois has not received any notification about 84 00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:39,279 Speaker 6: any enforcement action from the White House. Will you be 85 00:04:39,480 --> 00:04:42,760 Speaker 6: coordinating with them about an operation of the size in Chicago. 86 00:04:43,600 --> 00:04:46,000 Speaker 5: Governor Prisker has been not five day one again. I 87 00:04:46,040 --> 00:04:49,719 Speaker 5: went there and started an operation right after the inauguration. 88 00:04:50,279 --> 00:04:53,320 Speaker 5: ICE agents have been flooding the zone in Chicago for 89 00:04:53,360 --> 00:04:55,880 Speaker 5: a while now, so he's aware of what's going on. 90 00:04:56,000 --> 00:04:58,719 Speaker 5: I mean, he knows we've been there. We were there 91 00:04:58,800 --> 00:05:01,680 Speaker 5: last week where they're the week now. You know again 92 00:05:01,720 --> 00:05:04,440 Speaker 5: we're going to send the additional resources to all sanctuary cities. 93 00:05:04,480 --> 00:05:06,560 Speaker 5: But this isn't new to him. He knows we've been there, 94 00:05:06,560 --> 00:05:08,760 Speaker 5: and he's failed to work with us. The Mary Johnson 95 00:05:08,760 --> 00:05:11,280 Speaker 5: has failed to work with us again to this day. 96 00:05:11,760 --> 00:05:15,279 Speaker 5: A significant public safety threat gets locked into a jail 97 00:05:15,720 --> 00:05:19,200 Speaker 5: in Illinois, in Chicago, CUK County Jail, one of the 98 00:05:19,240 --> 00:05:22,719 Speaker 5: most target rich environments for criminal illegal aliens. They and 99 00:05:22,800 --> 00:05:24,920 Speaker 5: we drop our detainers, say hey, this guy's that illegally 100 00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:27,560 Speaker 5: the United States. You have custody. When you're dumbling them, 101 00:05:27,680 --> 00:05:29,200 Speaker 5: call us and we'll come and get them. Let us 102 00:05:29,320 --> 00:05:32,359 Speaker 5: deal with our enforcing our law. And they simply ignore 103 00:05:32,360 --> 00:05:34,560 Speaker 5: it and release into the streets. And what happens then 104 00:05:34,600 --> 00:05:37,279 Speaker 5: when you release a public safety threat back into the public, 105 00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:40,120 Speaker 5: it makes a community unsafe. It makes us unsafe for 106 00:05:40,160 --> 00:05:41,800 Speaker 5: our agents had to go into the community and try 107 00:05:41,800 --> 00:05:44,360 Speaker 5: to find somebody now in history who has access to 108 00:05:44,400 --> 00:05:46,800 Speaker 5: who knows what weapons. It makes unsafe for the illegal 109 00:05:46,800 --> 00:05:49,880 Speaker 5: aliens because anything can happen on the street. Arrest give 110 00:05:49,960 --> 00:05:52,839 Speaker 5: us the public safety threat, and the safety and security 111 00:05:52,839 --> 00:05:55,200 Speaker 5: of a county jail makes it safer for everybody. 112 00:05:55,640 --> 00:05:59,480 Speaker 1: You listen to the reality that they refuse even the 113 00:05:59,720 --> 00:06:03,000 Speaker 1: world first illegal immigrant criminal where there is an ICE 114 00:06:03,040 --> 00:06:05,880 Speaker 1: detainer and they say to law enforcement, tell us when 115 00:06:05,920 --> 00:06:08,000 Speaker 1: you're done with them, and we'll come pick them up. 116 00:06:08,040 --> 00:06:10,440 Speaker 1: And what do they say in Illinois, We will not 117 00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:13,040 Speaker 1: notify you, we will not work with you. We are 118 00:06:13,080 --> 00:06:17,760 Speaker 1: going to release these rapists, these murderers, these cartel members, 119 00:06:17,839 --> 00:06:21,520 Speaker 1: these drug dealers back into our streets to terrorize our 120 00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:26,240 Speaker 1: citizens because we care more about hating Trump than we 121 00:06:26,320 --> 00:06:29,479 Speaker 1: do about keeping people safe. Which brings us back to 122 00:06:29,560 --> 00:06:33,960 Speaker 1: the governor. Governor Pritzker saying this about Donald Trump's plan 123 00:06:34,480 --> 00:06:37,520 Speaker 1: to bring in more resources into Chicago. 124 00:06:38,080 --> 00:06:40,880 Speaker 3: By the way, the homicide rate in Chicago has now 125 00:06:41,240 --> 00:06:44,240 Speaker 3: been cut in half over the last four years because 126 00:06:44,279 --> 00:06:46,480 Speaker 3: of the investments that we've made on the ground. It's 127 00:06:46,520 --> 00:06:50,000 Speaker 3: not just in police. I have invested significantly in police, 128 00:06:50,040 --> 00:06:54,160 Speaker 3: but we've also made massive investments in community violence intervention. 129 00:06:54,760 --> 00:06:57,719 Speaker 3: Those programs are working. We're doing more than any other 130 00:06:57,800 --> 00:06:59,960 Speaker 3: state in that regard, and it's working on the streets 131 00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:04,000 Speaker 3: of Chicago. He doesn't read anything, he doesn't really understand anything. 132 00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:06,960 Speaker 3: He just has some idea in his head that Chicago 133 00:07:07,080 --> 00:07:09,560 Speaker 3: is bad. He's always had that. By the way, I 134 00:07:09,600 --> 00:07:11,960 Speaker 3: also think I live rent free in the guy's head. 135 00:07:12,200 --> 00:07:14,520 Speaker 3: So he's constantly thinking about, you know, how do I 136 00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:17,760 Speaker 3: attack Chicago? And oh yeah, I hate that Pritzker guy too. 137 00:07:19,040 --> 00:07:22,760 Speaker 1: There it is very clear it's all about the politics 138 00:07:22,960 --> 00:07:26,600 Speaker 1: with the governor. He wants to attack Donald Trump. He 139 00:07:26,640 --> 00:07:30,120 Speaker 1: doesn't want to work with law enforcement. He doesn't want 140 00:07:30,160 --> 00:07:34,000 Speaker 1: to allow for anyone to be safe in his cities, 141 00:07:34,360 --> 00:07:38,480 Speaker 1: and lying over and over again. There's a mother of 142 00:07:38,520 --> 00:07:41,680 Speaker 1: a murdered girl, a Chicago resident, who decided to go 143 00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:44,440 Speaker 1: on Fox and Friends. And here's what she had to 144 00:07:44,480 --> 00:07:48,440 Speaker 1: say about how she is terrified and others are terrified 145 00:07:48,480 --> 00:07:51,960 Speaker 1: to even walk the streets, and she lost her own 146 00:07:52,120 --> 00:07:56,960 Speaker 1: child to this type of horrific violence in Chicago. 147 00:07:57,440 --> 00:08:00,120 Speaker 7: This is a mother of a girl murdered in Chicago 148 00:08:00,360 --> 00:08:02,520 Speaker 7: who says she wants President Trump to come in and 149 00:08:02,560 --> 00:08:03,239 Speaker 7: fix the city. 150 00:08:04,880 --> 00:08:08,120 Speaker 8: I would like the governors to ask for help because 151 00:08:08,680 --> 00:08:11,360 Speaker 8: the thing that's in place right now, it's not working. 152 00:08:11,520 --> 00:08:14,120 Speaker 8: We're scared to sit in our cars, We're scared to 153 00:08:14,400 --> 00:08:15,960 Speaker 8: have our kids walking to school. 154 00:08:17,040 --> 00:08:20,600 Speaker 7: I mean, we have residents like you on every single 155 00:08:20,720 --> 00:08:24,239 Speaker 7: day who're saying we want the governor to ask for help, 156 00:08:24,280 --> 00:08:27,160 Speaker 7: we want the federal government to step in. So what 157 00:08:27,360 --> 00:08:28,360 Speaker 7: more is it going to take. 158 00:08:30,160 --> 00:08:31,840 Speaker 2: I think it's going to take one of their own 159 00:08:31,960 --> 00:08:34,640 Speaker 2: to actually suffer through, you know, some of the things 160 00:08:34,640 --> 00:08:37,560 Speaker 2: that we go through in Chicago. I actually challenged JB. Prisker, 161 00:08:37,760 --> 00:08:40,440 Speaker 2: Brandon Johnson to actually walk the same streets that I 162 00:08:40,559 --> 00:08:44,520 Speaker 2: walk here in Chicago, I mean, without the police detail, 163 00:08:44,640 --> 00:08:47,280 Speaker 2: without the suits, of course, and we'll see if they 164 00:08:47,280 --> 00:08:49,880 Speaker 2: have that same opinion. When it comes to JB. Prisker 165 00:08:49,960 --> 00:08:52,319 Speaker 2: saying that Chicago is safe, I feel like a lot 166 00:08:52,360 --> 00:08:55,360 Speaker 2: of this is just virtue signaling. When it comes to JB. Prisker, 167 00:08:56,040 --> 00:08:58,880 Speaker 2: he thinks he's living rent free in Donald Trump's head 168 00:08:58,880 --> 00:09:02,040 Speaker 2: that I honestly think the other way around. And when 169 00:09:02,080 --> 00:09:04,320 Speaker 2: it comes to Brandon Johnson and all of the race 170 00:09:04,360 --> 00:09:07,120 Speaker 2: baiting and things like that. He tends to think that 171 00:09:07,320 --> 00:09:11,200 Speaker 2: police are races because you know, majority of police officer 172 00:09:11,280 --> 00:09:14,160 Speaker 2: happens to be white Caucasian males. But you know, he 173 00:09:14,240 --> 00:09:17,360 Speaker 2: fails to tell the people that there were over thirty 174 00:09:17,400 --> 00:09:20,440 Speaker 2: two hundred black slave owners in America and they own 175 00:09:20,520 --> 00:09:24,600 Speaker 2: over twelve thousand slaves. So we can play the color game, 176 00:09:24,640 --> 00:09:26,920 Speaker 2: but that's not going to help the issue when it 177 00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:29,280 Speaker 2: comes to safety in Chicago. 178 00:09:29,480 --> 00:09:31,280 Speaker 7: Well, we know you know the city well, and for 179 00:09:31,320 --> 00:09:33,400 Speaker 7: those of us who have known that city for a 180 00:09:33,400 --> 00:09:35,480 Speaker 7: long time, it is just not what it once was. 181 00:09:35,559 --> 00:09:39,199 Speaker 7: It's changed significantly, and it's rough for so many families 182 00:09:39,240 --> 00:09:42,040 Speaker 7: that can't leave and that have to continue to live 183 00:09:42,080 --> 00:09:44,920 Speaker 7: there for work and otherwise. So appreciate you coming on. 184 00:09:45,760 --> 00:09:48,360 Speaker 1: You listen to these residents, not one, but two there 185 00:09:49,120 --> 00:09:52,240 Speaker 1: telling their stories talking about how bad it is. Do 186 00:09:52,320 --> 00:09:54,720 Speaker 1: you notice the governor and the mayor are not listening 187 00:09:54,720 --> 00:09:58,000 Speaker 1: to them at all? And this is exactly why Donald 188 00:09:58,040 --> 00:10:01,920 Speaker 1: Trump right now is so popular because he's actually doing 189 00:10:01,920 --> 00:10:04,400 Speaker 1: what he said he was going to do. He's not 190 00:10:04,480 --> 00:10:09,480 Speaker 1: going to sit back and watch people get killed. He's 191 00:10:09,520 --> 00:10:11,839 Speaker 1: not going to sit back and say I'm sorry, but 192 00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:16,200 Speaker 1: because you're in that city, you're not going to be safe. 193 00:10:16,360 --> 00:10:19,000 Speaker 1: And this is why I think there are so many 194 00:10:19,000 --> 00:10:21,480 Speaker 1: Americans right now that like this present more than they 195 00:10:21,480 --> 00:10:23,080 Speaker 1: did in his first administration. 196 00:10:23,720 --> 00:10:25,840 Speaker 4: He's doing it differently. 197 00:10:27,080 --> 00:10:30,440 Speaker 1: It is a story that has just not gotten enough press. 198 00:10:30,760 --> 00:10:33,760 Speaker 1: It is a story of the Biden administration knowing that 199 00:10:33,800 --> 00:10:37,400 Speaker 1: they were losing children that they were entrusted to protect 200 00:10:37,480 --> 00:10:40,280 Speaker 1: in the US, giving them to people that were not 201 00:10:40,320 --> 00:10:43,160 Speaker 1: related to them, and then knowing when they went to 202 00:10:43,200 --> 00:10:47,440 Speaker 1: go find them that they had disappeared. The reality is 203 00:10:47,760 --> 00:10:50,719 Speaker 1: they knew exactly what was happening to those children. They 204 00:10:50,720 --> 00:10:54,200 Speaker 1: were being trafficked, they were put into sex slavery, and 205 00:10:54,280 --> 00:10:57,120 Speaker 1: many of them were going to turn up dead. But 206 00:10:57,160 --> 00:11:00,800 Speaker 1: the Biden administration turned the other way, and for one 207 00:11:00,960 --> 00:11:04,120 Speaker 1: simple reason, because if they admitted the disaster, they'd have 208 00:11:04,200 --> 00:11:08,440 Speaker 1: to shut down the wide open southern border. Tom Homan 209 00:11:08,720 --> 00:11:12,240 Speaker 1: came out last week and said, we have, thank goodness, 210 00:11:12,280 --> 00:11:17,160 Speaker 1: located about twenty three thousand of the hundreds of thousands 211 00:11:17,360 --> 00:11:20,040 Speaker 1: that were lost under the Biden administration. 212 00:11:20,559 --> 00:11:23,080 Speaker 5: Out of the three hundred thousand children, I looked at 213 00:11:23,120 --> 00:11:27,760 Speaker 5: the numbers just yesterday, we located over twenty three thousand 214 00:11:27,760 --> 00:11:31,000 Speaker 5: of them, So twenty three thousand locations of the three 215 00:11:31,080 --> 00:11:34,000 Speaker 5: hundred thousand were President Trump's committed We're not going to 216 00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:36,120 Speaker 5: stop till we find every one of them, or at least, 217 00:11:36,320 --> 00:11:38,360 Speaker 5: you know, run every lead down that those three hundred 218 00:11:38,360 --> 00:11:41,079 Speaker 5: thousand children, that's a that's a big that's a big 219 00:11:41,120 --> 00:11:44,000 Speaker 5: plus for the administration because the last administration wasn't even 220 00:11:44,040 --> 00:11:47,840 Speaker 5: looking for him. So but as far as Chicago, Chicago's 221 00:11:47,880 --> 00:11:50,960 Speaker 5: coming along with every other sanctuary city, President Trump is 222 00:11:51,000 --> 00:11:55,040 Speaker 5: committed that we're going to focus and prioritize sanctuary cities 223 00:11:55,040 --> 00:11:58,000 Speaker 5: because that is where the problem is. We know for 224 00:11:58,040 --> 00:12:01,559 Speaker 5: a fact they're releasing public safety three to the streets 225 00:12:01,600 --> 00:12:04,559 Speaker 5: every day rather than handing them over to Ice and 226 00:12:04,600 --> 00:12:05,600 Speaker 5: we can deport them. 227 00:12:06,160 --> 00:12:08,600 Speaker 1: You listen to that part of the story, and then 228 00:12:08,640 --> 00:12:12,040 Speaker 1: you combine it with what we've just gotten into reporting. 229 00:12:12,920 --> 00:12:16,600 Speaker 1: The Daily Mail is now reporting that migrant children lost 230 00:12:16,679 --> 00:12:20,760 Speaker 1: under the Biden administration have been found dead or working 231 00:12:21,200 --> 00:12:25,080 Speaker 1: as sex slaves, after an estimated two hundred and thirty 232 00:12:25,120 --> 00:12:28,079 Speaker 1: three thousand children that you heard Tom Homan mentioned a 233 00:12:28,080 --> 00:12:31,200 Speaker 1: moment ago cross the US Mexico border alone. During President 234 00:12:31,240 --> 00:12:35,040 Speaker 1: Joe Biden's tenure and then were lost. Law enforcement has 235 00:12:35,080 --> 00:12:38,200 Speaker 1: started to locate them, only to learn the horrors that 236 00:12:38,200 --> 00:12:42,600 Speaker 1: they're facing. Since March, the Trump administration has tracked down 237 00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:45,880 Speaker 1: about twenty three thousand of those kids, finding some of 238 00:12:45,920 --> 00:12:50,680 Speaker 1: them in deplorable conditions, some of them dead, and others 239 00:12:50,720 --> 00:12:52,400 Speaker 1: being used as sex slaves. 240 00:12:53,160 --> 00:12:55,040 Speaker 4: We found children who have been. 241 00:12:54,960 --> 00:12:59,040 Speaker 1: Raped, is what the HHS Office of Refugee Resettlement senior 242 00:12:59,040 --> 00:13:04,480 Speaker 1: adviser said Fox News Channel. We're talking about debt bondage 243 00:13:05,080 --> 00:13:09,880 Speaker 1: where children are being made to work off debt, trafficking debt. 244 00:13:10,400 --> 00:13:13,960 Speaker 1: We're talking about children that were brought into situations and 245 00:13:14,040 --> 00:13:19,240 Speaker 1: then threatened and treated like sexual slaves. At least twenty 246 00:13:19,360 --> 00:13:23,160 Speaker 1: seven of those children lost their lives. They are now 247 00:13:23,320 --> 00:13:28,360 Speaker 1: confirmed dead, with cause of deaths ranging from murder, suicide, 248 00:13:28,679 --> 00:13:35,200 Speaker 1: car accidents, or drug overdoses. Children are in horrific environments, 249 00:13:35,320 --> 00:13:38,280 Speaker 1: just environments that they should not be in, where the 250 00:13:38,360 --> 00:13:41,679 Speaker 1: sponsor is a heroin dealer and that child winds up 251 00:13:41,800 --> 00:13:47,559 Speaker 1: dying of a heroin overdose. These children are classified by 252 00:13:47,600 --> 00:13:52,000 Speaker 1: the government as unaccompanied miners, under age migrants who cross 253 00:13:52,040 --> 00:13:55,680 Speaker 1: the US border without a parent or legal guardian. An uncle, 254 00:13:56,040 --> 00:14:00,720 Speaker 1: older sibling, or other relative might be traveling with the child. However, 255 00:14:00,800 --> 00:14:03,559 Speaker 1: the miner would be considered unaccompany because they are not 256 00:14:04,040 --> 00:14:08,440 Speaker 1: with a legal parent. Oftentimes, the parents were already in 257 00:14:08,440 --> 00:14:11,199 Speaker 1: the US and have saved up money to pay smugglers 258 00:14:11,240 --> 00:14:15,480 Speaker 1: to bring their children in. In a heartbreaking video, for example, 259 00:14:15,600 --> 00:14:18,040 Speaker 1: a two year old girl from El Salvador told the 260 00:14:18,080 --> 00:14:21,760 Speaker 1: Texas Department of Safety troopers who found her in November, 261 00:14:21,960 --> 00:14:23,800 Speaker 1: that she was on her way to reunite with her 262 00:14:23,840 --> 00:14:27,840 Speaker 1: mom and dad. While kids have sometimes crossed the border alone, 263 00:14:28,120 --> 00:14:32,160 Speaker 1: during President Joe Biden's time in office, the number exploded 264 00:14:32,680 --> 00:14:38,160 Speaker 1: alongside overall illegal immigration. Often children were arriving at the 265 00:14:38,200 --> 00:14:42,280 Speaker 1: border completely alone, pushed over the border wall by smugglers 266 00:14:42,320 --> 00:14:46,720 Speaker 1: who then abandon them. In another shocking case, a two 267 00:14:47,000 --> 00:14:50,280 Speaker 1: month old baby was found in the Rio Grande city 268 00:14:50,280 --> 00:14:54,440 Speaker 1: of Texas by Border Patrol agents. This was a chilling 269 00:14:54,520 --> 00:14:58,000 Speaker 1: reminder of how children are being exploited by human smugglers 270 00:14:58,280 --> 00:15:02,880 Speaker 1: and criminal organizations ever day, the agency said after that 271 00:15:03,040 --> 00:15:07,360 Speaker 1: report became public. In another instance, two brothers were found 272 00:15:07,360 --> 00:15:10,720 Speaker 1: at the Texas Mexico border with handwriting on their t 273 00:15:10,880 --> 00:15:14,280 Speaker 1: shirts with a child's name or the contact information of 274 00:15:14,320 --> 00:15:15,400 Speaker 1: a said relative. 275 00:15:15,560 --> 00:15:16,600 Speaker 4: In the United States. 276 00:15:17,160 --> 00:15:20,240 Speaker 1: Someone had written the contact information on family members in 277 00:15:20,320 --> 00:15:24,320 Speaker 1: the US on their clothing in a marker, hoping for 278 00:15:24,400 --> 00:15:29,000 Speaker 1: the best. This is how the traffickers treat these children. Now, 279 00:15:29,000 --> 00:15:33,560 Speaker 1: four hundred and seventy thousand children without parents or guardians 280 00:15:33,600 --> 00:15:37,200 Speaker 1: crossed into the US illegally between twenty twenty one and 281 00:15:37,400 --> 00:15:42,320 Speaker 1: twenty twenty four, according to new government statistics, After an 282 00:15:42,440 --> 00:15:45,360 Speaker 1: uncompanied minor enters the US, the government policy is to 283 00:15:45,480 --> 00:15:48,640 Speaker 1: let the miners stay in the country. The government holds 284 00:15:48,640 --> 00:15:51,440 Speaker 1: them in special shelters for children until they can be 285 00:15:51,520 --> 00:15:57,200 Speaker 1: reunited with relatives in the US. However, these children are 286 00:15:57,320 --> 00:16:01,080 Speaker 1: not deported back to where they came from, and that's 287 00:16:01,120 --> 00:16:06,200 Speaker 1: where the problems really really began. Biden officials were supposed 288 00:16:06,240 --> 00:16:10,600 Speaker 1: to be vetting the adults that they were claiming were 289 00:16:10,640 --> 00:16:15,120 Speaker 1: their children to make sure that they were actually related. 290 00:16:15,680 --> 00:16:16,920 Speaker 4: Did they do it No. 291 00:16:17,920 --> 00:16:20,240 Speaker 1: That is when the children were lost into the system 292 00:16:20,320 --> 00:16:24,120 Speaker 1: deliberately by the Biden administration, with the officials unable to 293 00:16:24,240 --> 00:16:28,680 Speaker 1: verify the kids whereabouts at all. There wasn't very good 294 00:16:28,720 --> 00:16:31,760 Speaker 1: record keeping either, and we now know that maybe on 295 00:16:31,880 --> 00:16:36,240 Speaker 1: purpose under the Biden administration. It's drawing the data back 296 00:16:36,280 --> 00:16:40,520 Speaker 1: in being able to identify addresses where these children went, 297 00:16:41,080 --> 00:16:45,080 Speaker 1: who these sponsors actually were, and in many cases, well, 298 00:16:45,120 --> 00:16:49,080 Speaker 1: the data is horrible, and that may be on purpose. 299 00:16:49,600 --> 00:16:52,880 Speaker 1: What the Biden administration was taking in and putting into 300 00:16:52,960 --> 00:16:57,000 Speaker 1: our computer systems was not the right information, quote unquote. 301 00:16:57,440 --> 00:16:58,560 Speaker 4: So now we have to. 302 00:16:58,640 --> 00:17:01,760 Speaker 1: Draw that all the way back in and then deeply 303 00:17:01,840 --> 00:17:06,520 Speaker 1: investigate into where some of these children went. In some cases, 304 00:17:06,560 --> 00:17:10,760 Speaker 1: the adults the kids were released to, called sponsors, were 305 00:17:10,760 --> 00:17:14,200 Speaker 1: not even DNA tested by the Biden administration to ensure 306 00:17:14,240 --> 00:17:17,720 Speaker 1: that they were actually even related. They gave these kids 307 00:17:17,760 --> 00:17:21,680 Speaker 1: away to an essence, strangers, and then the strangers could 308 00:17:21,720 --> 00:17:25,199 Speaker 1: do whatever they wanted to do with these children. In 309 00:17:25,320 --> 00:17:28,320 Speaker 1: other cases, the addresses where the kids were being taken 310 00:17:28,359 --> 00:17:33,720 Speaker 1: to were also not vetted by the Biden administration to 311 00:17:33,800 --> 00:17:37,439 Speaker 1: make sure that children were actually living there. Under the 312 00:17:37,440 --> 00:17:42,239 Speaker 1: current administration, under Donald Trump's leadership, DNA testing is a 313 00:17:42,320 --> 00:17:47,040 Speaker 1: requirement as its proof of income. Criminal background checks are 314 00:17:47,080 --> 00:17:53,920 Speaker 1: being done on everyone. Fingerprinting and identification verification are also mandates. 315 00:17:54,600 --> 00:17:59,120 Speaker 1: So why did the Biden administration do this to literally 316 00:17:59,640 --> 00:18:04,640 Speaker 1: hunt undreds of thousands of children. One simple reason, they 317 00:18:04,680 --> 00:18:06,719 Speaker 1: wanted to get rid of the kids. As quickly as 318 00:18:06,760 --> 00:18:09,719 Speaker 1: they could so they could allow for the borders to 319 00:18:09,800 --> 00:18:13,840 Speaker 1: stay open. They could not handle a backlog of caring 320 00:18:13,880 --> 00:18:17,600 Speaker 1: for three hundred thousand children. They didn't have the apparatus 321 00:18:17,640 --> 00:18:20,639 Speaker 1: to do it, but to keep the southern border open 322 00:18:21,000 --> 00:18:23,560 Speaker 1: and the flood coming in, they were willing to give 323 00:18:23,600 --> 00:18:27,720 Speaker 1: these children to virtually anyone, even knowing that many of 324 00:18:27,720 --> 00:18:30,120 Speaker 1: them were going to die, knowing that many of them 325 00:18:30,119 --> 00:18:32,760 Speaker 1: were going to be sold into essence, what is sex 326 00:18:32,960 --> 00:18:37,360 Speaker 1: slavery or bondage, or into child labor to work off 327 00:18:37,359 --> 00:18:41,200 Speaker 1: a debt. They didn't care, and they knew that there 328 00:18:41,280 --> 00:18:44,800 Speaker 1: was a problem. The reports clearly showed the Biden administration 329 00:18:45,080 --> 00:18:48,040 Speaker 1: was quote checking up on the kids, and they weren't 330 00:18:48,280 --> 00:18:52,760 Speaker 1: finding the children or the sponsors or at the address 331 00:18:52,800 --> 00:18:55,800 Speaker 1: that they were declared to be going to. And what 332 00:18:55,840 --> 00:19:00,280 Speaker 1: do they do? Nothing to stop it from continuing. And 333 00:19:00,320 --> 00:19:03,359 Speaker 1: that is exactly why Donald Trump is working so hard 334 00:19:03,400 --> 00:19:07,080 Speaker 1: now to find these children and hopefully find them alive. 335 00:19:07,960 --> 00:19:09,600 Speaker 1: I want to talk to you about my friends over 336 00:19:09,640 --> 00:19:12,639 Speaker 1: at Patriot Mobile. You've got a lot of choices for 337 00:19:12,760 --> 00:19:16,399 Speaker 1: cell phone service, with new ones popping up all the time, 338 00:19:16,760 --> 00:19:18,679 Speaker 1: But if you want to make a difference, and you 339 00:19:18,720 --> 00:19:21,879 Speaker 1: want to stop giving your money to liberal companies, Well, 340 00:19:22,000 --> 00:19:24,680 Speaker 1: one way you can do that is by getting rid 341 00:19:24,760 --> 00:19:27,840 Speaker 1: of Liberal mobile you probably have right now. That is 342 00:19:27,880 --> 00:19:31,119 Speaker 1: where hundreds of thousands of Americans are now coming together 343 00:19:31,320 --> 00:19:34,160 Speaker 1: and have made Patriot Mobile what they are today.

In some big news, President Donald Trump with 375 00:21:18,840 --> 00:21:21,960 Speaker 1: the Pentagon doing what he said to do, have now 376 00:21:22,000 --> 00:21:26,600 Speaker 1: deployed f thirty five stealth fighters to the Caribbean for 377 00:21:26,760 --> 00:21:32,760 Speaker 1: counter narcotics operations. Axios freaking out because that's what the 378 00:21:32,800 --> 00:21:35,240 Speaker 1: media does when you have a strong president that is 379 00:21:35,320 --> 00:21:37,080 Speaker 1: protecting American lives. 380 00:21:37,480 --> 00:21:39,320 Speaker 4: Here's what their headline. 381 00:21:38,880 --> 00:21:44,560 Speaker 1: Reads, quote, We've never seen this before. Trump's drug war 382 00:21:44,680 --> 00:21:48,480 Speaker 1: looks like a real war. Again, they're saying it in 383 00:21:48,520 --> 00:21:51,680 Speaker 1: a negative connotation. I'm thrilled by it, and so are 384 00:21:51,720 --> 00:21:55,160 Speaker 1: most Americans because it's exactly what they voted for. 385 00:21:55,600 --> 00:21:55,760 Speaker 3: Now. 386 00:21:55,800 --> 00:21:58,600 Speaker 4: The media Axios is the great example of that. Today. 387 00:21:59,280 --> 00:22:02,720 Speaker 1: They're wanting to be terrified that the President is wanting 388 00:22:02,800 --> 00:22:06,480 Speaker 1: to go after narco terras. Their first line of the 389 00:22:06,560 --> 00:22:12,200 Speaker 1: article says this, more missiles, fewer arrests. President Trump's war 390 00:22:12,280 --> 00:22:15,000 Speaker 1: on drugs is officially a war, not a mere law 391 00:22:15,160 --> 00:22:18,720 Speaker 1: enforcement action. And then they say why does this matter? Well, 392 00:22:18,760 --> 00:22:21,400 Speaker 1: the US has entered a new era in which narcotic 393 00:22:21,560 --> 00:22:25,399 Speaker 1: traffickers are classified as terrorists and Trump is claiming the 394 00:22:25,480 --> 00:22:28,960 Speaker 1: right to kill them before they or their drugs reach 395 00:22:29,200 --> 00:22:31,600 Speaker 1: this country. That's what you need to know the difference 396 00:22:31,600 --> 00:22:35,520 Speaker 1: between Republicans and Democrats on this issue. Democrats want to 397 00:22:35,600 --> 00:22:39,120 Speaker 1: like hand out due process to these terrorists. Republicans are saying, 398 00:22:39,200 --> 00:22:42,800 Speaker 1: let's kill them and stop their drugs before they kill Americans. 399 00:22:43,119 --> 00:22:44,359 Speaker 4: I'm loving this article. 400 00:22:44,800 --> 00:22:48,120 Speaker 1: The president's overall perspective, they write, is that if there's 401 00:22:48,160 --> 00:22:51,639 Speaker 1: a terrorist threat to the homeland of the United States 402 00:22:51,640 --> 00:22:56,520 Speaker 1: of America. He trusts the military to take that threat out, 403 00:22:56,960 --> 00:22:59,760 Speaker 1: whether it's a drug boat off the coast of Venezuela 404 00:23:00,480 --> 00:23:03,480 Speaker 1: or an Al Qada terrorist in the Middle East. That 405 00:23:03,600 --> 00:23:07,720 Speaker 1: is what a senior Trump administration official said to Axios Now. 406 00:23:07,720 --> 00:23:10,960 Speaker 1: On Tuesday, the US Navy blew up a suspected drug 407 00:23:11,040 --> 00:23:14,960 Speaker 1: running boat off Venezuela, killing its crew of eleven. According 408 00:23:14,960 --> 00:23:17,720 Speaker 1: to Trump and Pentagon officials. By the way, the video, 409 00:23:17,880 --> 00:23:20,359 Speaker 1: it's glorious and I put it up on my social 410 00:23:20,400 --> 00:23:23,080 Speaker 1: media accounts. If you haven't seen it yet, go check 411 00:23:23,119 --> 00:23:26,800 Speaker 1: it out at Ben Ferguson podcast on Instagram. 412 00:23:27,080 --> 00:23:27,280 Speaker 4: Now. 413 00:23:27,320 --> 00:23:31,320 Speaker 1: The attack marked the first time a suspected go fast 414 00:23:31,480 --> 00:23:35,439 Speaker 1: drug running boat was destroyed by a military missile. That 415 00:23:35,560 --> 00:23:39,040 Speaker 1: according to officials and drug war experts. Yet again, the 416 00:23:39,080 --> 00:23:43,360 Speaker 1: President saying, I'm not screwing around. Quote there's more where 417 00:23:43,400 --> 00:23:46,240 Speaker 1: that came from. Is what Donald Trump said in announcing 418 00:23:46,240 --> 00:23:49,840 Speaker 1: the strike. All other details of the shocking caught on 419 00:23:49,960 --> 00:23:51,960 Speaker 1: video missile attack are classified. 420 00:23:52,320 --> 00:23:53,240 Speaker 4: Officials said. 421 00:23:53,600 --> 00:23:55,800 Speaker 1: I also laugh about that because it was very clear 422 00:23:55,840 --> 00:23:58,760 Speaker 1: the President wanted the narco terras to see what happens 423 00:23:59,080 --> 00:24:02,640 Speaker 1: if they keeping their drugs to America. Now, the attack 424 00:24:02,840 --> 00:24:06,159 Speaker 1: was denounced by critics accustomed to the US conducting the 425 00:24:06,280 --> 00:24:09,200 Speaker 1: drug war as a law enforcement matter and in which 426 00:24:09,280 --> 00:24:13,320 Speaker 1: high see interactions mainly involved the Coast Guard and not 427 00:24:13,480 --> 00:24:16,720 Speaker 1: actually blowing the boats up. Well, until now, the goal 428 00:24:16,800 --> 00:24:19,440 Speaker 1: was to try to capture drug runners and the narcotics 429 00:24:19,680 --> 00:24:23,359 Speaker 1: to build a case for federal prosecution. That's not what 430 00:24:23,480 --> 00:24:25,800 Speaker 1: President Trump is trying to do. And by the way, 431 00:24:25,840 --> 00:24:29,920 Speaker 1: that policy has been a failed policy now for decades, 432 00:24:30,119 --> 00:24:32,480 Speaker 1: dating all the way back to Ronald Reagan and the 433 00:24:32,720 --> 00:24:35,600 Speaker 1: Just Say No campaign to drugs with the first Lady. 434 00:24:36,200 --> 00:24:39,560 Speaker 1: What happened Tuesday was a murder anywhere in the world, 435 00:24:39,760 --> 00:24:44,120 Speaker 1: is what Columbia's NARCO president wrote on Acts, saying, quote, 436 00:24:44,400 --> 00:24:48,440 Speaker 1: we have been capturing civilians who transport drugs for decades 437 00:24:48,440 --> 00:24:52,280 Speaker 1: without killing them. Those who transport drugs are not the 438 00:24:52,280 --> 00:24:55,080 Speaker 1: big narcos, but the very poor young people from the 439 00:24:55,119 --> 00:24:58,240 Speaker 1: Caribbean and the Pacific. Well, if you're one of the 440 00:24:58,240 --> 00:25:01,639 Speaker 1: poor young people, as he described it, the narco terrorist trade, 441 00:25:02,080 --> 00:25:05,280 Speaker 1: maybe after seeing some boats being blown up from drones 442 00:25:05,400 --> 00:25:09,359 Speaker 1: or airstrikes, you might think twice about taking the job. 443 00:25:09,800 --> 00:25:12,960 Speaker 1: And that's exactly what Donald Trump is trying to do now. 444 00:25:12,960 --> 00:25:13,359 Speaker 4: The laugh. 445 00:25:13,440 --> 00:25:15,679 Speaker 1: By the way they're fighting back. I'll give you a 446 00:25:15,680 --> 00:25:19,919 Speaker 1: great example, the former Human Rights Watchdog executive director Kenneth 447 00:25:20,000 --> 00:25:24,159 Speaker 1: Ross saying this on Acts quote, Trump admits he ordered 448 00:25:24,240 --> 00:25:28,600 Speaker 1: a summary execution the crime of murder, then went on 449 00:25:28,640 --> 00:25:31,439 Speaker 1: to say drug traffickers are not combatants who can be 450 00:25:31,480 --> 00:25:34,639 Speaker 1: shot on site. They are criminal suspects who must be 451 00:25:34,760 --> 00:25:36,919 Speaker 1: arrested and prosecuted. By the way, in the past, that 452 00:25:36,960 --> 00:25:40,960 Speaker 1: would technically be true. That's exactly why Donald Trump changed 453 00:25:41,000 --> 00:25:45,520 Speaker 1: the designation to name them as terrorists organizations. Now that 454 00:25:45,680 --> 00:25:49,560 Speaker 1: thinking is no longer operative. Is how a Trump administration 455 00:25:49,640 --> 00:25:53,240 Speaker 1: official put it. In fact, on his inauguration day, Donald 456 00:25:53,280 --> 00:25:58,200 Speaker 1: Trump signed an executive order declaring certain drug cartels, including 457 00:25:58,280 --> 00:26:02,880 Speaker 1: Venezuela's trend Aragua Gang, as a foreign terrorist organization. They 458 00:26:02,880 --> 00:26:05,560 Speaker 1: were put on notice. So none of this should be 459 00:26:05,680 --> 00:26:10,160 Speaker 1: shocking that the president is actually doing this right now now. 460 00:26:10,240 --> 00:26:14,200 Speaker 1: Under US law, this gives the president the authority which 461 00:26:14,200 --> 00:26:18,680 Speaker 1: he's using to employ the military. Administration officials say in 462 00:26:18,720 --> 00:26:22,400 Speaker 1: the same way, the President Obama authorized a drone program 463 00:26:22,440 --> 00:26:26,840 Speaker 1: that killed three thousand, seven hundred and ninety seven people 464 00:26:27,359 --> 00:26:31,560 Speaker 1: in five hundred and forty two strikes aimed at suspected terrats. 465 00:26:31,920 --> 00:26:34,359 Speaker 1: By the way, the left didn't freak out when Barack 466 00:26:34,400 --> 00:26:37,240 Speaker 1: Obama was doing that, but since Trump's doing something like 467 00:26:37,280 --> 00:26:41,280 Speaker 1: it now, they're all losing their minds. Trump also loosened 468 00:26:41,440 --> 00:26:46,520 Speaker 1: internal rules that slowed military officials from conducting lethal operations 469 00:26:46,560 --> 00:26:50,720 Speaker 1: against alleged terras. The National Security Council has taken out 470 00:26:50,760 --> 00:26:55,200 Speaker 1: nearly one hundred terrists, the senior officialist said, saying, quote, 471 00:26:55,200 --> 00:26:58,600 Speaker 1: we are conducting strikes against terras weekly that no one 472 00:26:58,760 --> 00:27:03,880 Speaker 1: even knows about now. Former US Attorney Patrick Sullivan, who 473 00:27:03,960 --> 00:27:09,800 Speaker 1: successfully prosecuted former Panama President Noriego for drug crimes after 474 00:27:09,840 --> 00:27:12,879 Speaker 1: he was snatched in a ninety nine US military invasion, 475 00:27:13,320 --> 00:27:16,960 Speaker 1: said Trump's militarization of the war on drugs, he says, 476 00:27:17,080 --> 00:27:20,560 Speaker 1: is a quote surprise, saying we've never seen this before. 477 00:27:21,040 --> 00:27:22,680 Speaker 4: This is a totally different approach. 478 00:27:23,240 --> 00:27:25,840 Speaker 1: No one fired a missile at a go fast boat 479 00:27:25,880 --> 00:27:27,240 Speaker 1: and just destroyed it. 480 00:27:27,240 --> 00:27:28,679 Speaker 4: It's just totally unheard of. 481 00:27:29,280 --> 00:27:32,560 Speaker 1: Yet again making me laugh that the media and the 482 00:27:32,680 --> 00:27:35,800 Speaker 1: laughter are shocked by the President paying off on what 483 00:27:35,880 --> 00:27:39,760 Speaker 1: he said he was going to do. Defend Secretary Pete headsays, 484 00:27:39,760 --> 00:27:44,920 Speaker 1: saying this on Wednesday, quote anyone else trafficking in those waters. 485 00:27:45,520 --> 00:27:49,320 Speaker 1: Who we know is a designated narco terrace will face 486 00:27:49,359 --> 00:27:51,960 Speaker 1: the same fate as the eleven that were on board 487 00:27:52,040 --> 00:27:54,240 Speaker 1: that first go fast boat that was blown up from 488 00:27:54,240 --> 00:27:57,919 Speaker 1: the sky. Senator Ran Paul by the way, expressing misgivings 489 00:27:57,960 --> 00:28:01,800 Speaker 1: about the operation, saying on NEWSMA, the Congress needs to 490 00:28:01,800 --> 00:28:05,920 Speaker 1: declare war before the administration wages full scale war on 491 00:28:06,000 --> 00:28:09,199 Speaker 1: the cartels. Just for the record, I couldn't disagree with 492 00:28:09,240 --> 00:28:13,440 Speaker 1: Senator Paul Moore. Trump's new drug war isn't limited by 493 00:28:13,440 --> 00:28:16,439 Speaker 1: the way we're being told, just to Venezuela. In the 494 00:28:16,480 --> 00:28:19,800 Speaker 1: short term, it could double as a regime change operation. 495 00:28:19,920 --> 00:28:23,560 Speaker 1: The left is now saying to dispose of the Venezuelan 496 00:28:23,640 --> 00:28:27,680 Speaker 1: dictator Maduro, who's accused of sealing last year's presidential election, 497 00:28:28,119 --> 00:28:31,679 Speaker 1: with a ton of evidence to support that fact. But 498 00:28:31,920 --> 00:28:34,760 Speaker 1: this is how the left tries to undermine the president 499 00:28:35,240 --> 00:28:38,560 Speaker 1: after Narrega. By the way, Maduro became the second sitting 500 00:28:38,640 --> 00:28:41,920 Speaker 1: Latin American head of state to be indicted on narcotic 501 00:28:42,120 --> 00:28:46,040 Speaker 1: charges in twenty twenty during Trump's first term. Maduro, by 502 00:28:46,080 --> 00:28:48,560 Speaker 1: the way, now also has a fifty million dollar bounty 503 00:28:48,600 --> 00:28:50,600 Speaker 1: on his head, which the Department. 504 00:28:50,240 --> 00:28:53,080 Speaker 4: Of Justice has doubled quote. 505 00:28:53,320 --> 00:28:57,320 Speaker 1: The only person who should be worried is Maduro, who's 506 00:28:57,400 --> 00:29:01,280 Speaker 1: running effectively as a kingpin of a narco state. That's 507 00:29:01,280 --> 00:29:05,160 Speaker 1: what the DoD administrator said, and we know that he's 508 00:29:05,200 --> 00:29:07,840 Speaker 1: been involved in this type of drug running that has 509 00:29:07,880 --> 00:29:12,160 Speaker 1: affected the American people directly. Put another way, Maduro can 510 00:29:12,200 --> 00:29:16,800 Speaker 1: be targeted for assassination, including by drone strike, under the 511 00:29:16,840 --> 00:29:18,080 Speaker 1: new US policy. 512 00:29:18,760 --> 00:29:20,280 Speaker 4: I have no problem with that either. 513 00:29:20,640 --> 00:29:24,800 Speaker 1: Administration officials say the possibility hasn't been seriously discussed, but 514 00:29:24,840 --> 00:29:28,640 Speaker 1: Trump is keeping it as an option now. When asked 515 00:29:28,680 --> 00:29:32,600 Speaker 1: whether regime changes a US goal, headse said the call 516 00:29:32,800 --> 00:29:35,800 Speaker 1: wasn't his. What his job is is to do what 517 00:29:35,840 --> 00:29:38,680 Speaker 1: the President says, and that is to go after the 518 00:29:38,760 --> 00:29:42,160 Speaker 1: narco terrorists because clearly they're not going to stop killing 519 00:29:42,200 --> 00:29:44,960 Speaker 1: Americans until we stop them. 520 00:29:45,400 --> 00:29:47,240 Speaker 4: Which brings us to the bigger point. 521 00:29:47,960 --> 00:29:50,800 Speaker 1: Why is it that there's so many Democrats in America 522 00:29:50,880 --> 00:29:53,800 Speaker 1: right now that are refusing to admit just how bad 523 00:29:53,840 --> 00:29:56,760 Speaker 1: the drug problem is. We know that fetnol is the 524 00:29:56,840 --> 00:30:00,920 Speaker 1: number one killer of younger Americans right now, truly sad 525 00:30:01,000 --> 00:30:04,800 Speaker 1: and shocking, and many of the accidental overdoses that are 526 00:30:04,840 --> 00:30:09,040 Speaker 1: causing their deaths are clearly not intentional. Many kids think 527 00:30:09,040 --> 00:30:12,040 Speaker 1: that they're taking a legitimate pill like a ritolin or 528 00:30:12,080 --> 00:30:17,040 Speaker 1: an adderall and then drop dead from fetnyl. DEA agents 529 00:30:17,080 --> 00:30:19,720 Speaker 1: have said they can't even tell the difference between the 530 00:30:19,800 --> 00:30:23,800 Speaker 1: real pill from a pharmacist and the narco terrorist pill 531 00:30:23,840 --> 00:30:26,520 Speaker 1: that is laced with fetanyl that can easily kill you. 532 00:30:27,160 --> 00:30:30,160 Speaker 1: So here we are, we're in a moment where Donald 533 00:30:30,160 --> 00:30:33,360 Speaker 1: Trump has made it clear he may direct more strikes 534 00:30:33,480 --> 00:30:37,360 Speaker 1: against the narco terrists. As it's been put by Marco Rubio, 535 00:30:37,440 --> 00:30:40,520 Speaker 1: he said, quote blow them up. That's what Rubio says. 536 00:30:40,520 --> 00:30:43,520 Speaker 1: Trump will direct more strikes. The president of United States 537 00:30:43,600 --> 00:30:47,200 Speaker 1: America is going to wage war on the narco terrorists organizations. 538 00:30:47,600 --> 00:30:50,239 Speaker 1: So from the State Department to the Pentagon, to the 539 00:30:50,320 --> 00:30:53,400 Speaker 1: FBI to the White House, one thing that is sure. 540 00:30:53,760 --> 00:30:56,840 Speaker 1: The President said he was going after the drug traffickers, 541 00:30:57,280 --> 00:31:00,440 Speaker 1: and that is exactly what he's doing. And yes, even 542 00:31:00,480 --> 00:31:02,960 Speaker 1: as they're shocked to write it, it's maybe one of 543 00:31:03,000 --> 00:31:06,920 Speaker 1: the best well articles I've ever seen where they're saying 544 00:31:06,960 --> 00:31:09,800 Speaker 1: that the President is actually not just talking about going 545 00:31:09,840 --> 00:31:13,840 Speaker 1: to war with a terrorists, he's actually starting a war 546 00:31:14,320 --> 00:31:17,800 Speaker 1: to take them out, don't forget share this podcast please 547 00:31:17,840 --> 00:31:20,680 Speaker 1: with your family and your friends where whoever they are, 548 00:31:21,200 --> 00:31:23,520 Speaker 1: and I will see you back here tomorrow
