1
00:00:00,400 --> 00:00:01,520
Speaker 1: The Michael Barry Show.

2
00:00:01,920 --> 00:00:06,200
Speaker 2: Let's go back to twenty eighteen and an appearance by

3
00:00:06,240 --> 00:00:12,760
Speaker 2: the casting call Congressman Alexandria Cassio Cortes on CNN. You

4
00:00:12,920 --> 00:00:17,920
Speaker 2: remember why she's the casting call congressman. That's nothing sexual.

5
00:00:18,760 --> 00:00:24,439
Speaker 2: That is because a well funded group, a very very

6
00:00:24,560 --> 00:00:28,160
Speaker 2: radical leftists, determined they were going to install a congressman.

7
00:00:29,120 --> 00:00:32,760
Speaker 2: They were going to run against a more moderate Democrat

8
00:00:33,800 --> 00:00:40,440
Speaker 2: and beat them by running a well funded, well organized campaign,

9
00:00:42,080 --> 00:00:44,440
Speaker 2: and they were going to prove to the Democrats that

10
00:00:44,479 --> 00:00:47,919
Speaker 2: the radicals have taken over their party.

11
00:00:48,800 --> 00:00:49,400
Speaker 1: And they did.

12
00:00:50,720 --> 00:00:53,680
Speaker 2: They literally held a casting call. It was filmed. You

13
00:00:53,720 --> 00:00:56,320
Speaker 2: can watch it. Go spend some time on the interwebs.

14
00:00:56,480 --> 00:01:01,320
Speaker 2: You'll find it. And since then they have launched her

15
00:01:01,320 --> 00:01:05,440
Speaker 2: to national prominence. Make no mistake, they accomplished what they

16
00:01:05,440 --> 00:01:11,360
Speaker 2: wanted to accomplish. So what does this leftist wacko have

17
00:01:11,440 --> 00:01:16,880
Speaker 2: to do with anything? Well, we have an election coming

18
00:01:16,959 --> 00:01:21,200
Speaker 2: up and you may be wondering, why are you wanting

19
00:01:21,240 --> 00:01:26,120
Speaker 2: to play six year old audio from AOC. Because of

20
00:01:26,240 --> 00:01:32,120
Speaker 2: the upcoming election, That's why I'm playing this audio. AOC

21
00:01:32,440 --> 00:01:38,760
Speaker 2: wanted to abolish ice. She wanted to do away with

22
00:01:38,840 --> 00:01:43,640
Speaker 2: the ability to stop the illegal aliens from invading our country.

23
00:01:44,280 --> 00:01:49,440
Speaker 2: All right, She's not running for president, but Kamala Harris is,

24
00:01:50,520 --> 00:01:55,680
Speaker 2: and she bragged about having support in the Senate from

25
00:01:55,840 --> 00:01:58,160
Speaker 2: then Senator Kamala Harris.

26
00:01:58,360 --> 00:02:01,000
Speaker 3: Your plans include abolishing ice, Jason was going through some

27
00:02:01,080 --> 00:02:03,320
Speaker 3: of these, A universal health care as you call Medicare

28
00:02:03,360 --> 00:02:05,880
Speaker 3: for all, guarantee of a job for people who want one,

29
00:02:06,080 --> 00:02:09,840
Speaker 3: free college tuition. Do you think even your Democratic colleagues

30
00:02:09,919 --> 00:02:11,280
Speaker 3: will support that platform.

31
00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:14,520
Speaker 4: Well, I think that they've already start. There are plenty

32
00:02:14,560 --> 00:02:17,000
Speaker 4: who have already hopped on board. You know, there already

33
00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:20,080
Speaker 4: is legislation on the floor of Congress regarding the abolishment

34
00:02:20,120 --> 00:02:23,600
Speaker 4: of ICE. Leading Democratic leaders like Kamala Harris and even

35
00:02:23,639 --> 00:02:27,000
Speaker 4: folks like Permilajaia Paul have already discussed this issue. We

36
00:02:27,080 --> 00:02:29,600
Speaker 4: have a very large amount of co sponsors on the

37
00:02:29,639 --> 00:02:30,920
Speaker 4: Medicare for All legislation.

38
00:02:31,400 --> 00:02:41,919
Speaker 2: Did the future Borders are really support abolishing ice? Well,

39
00:02:42,840 --> 00:02:48,679
Speaker 2: don't take my word for it. This is then Senator

40
00:02:48,760 --> 00:02:54,120
Speaker 2: Kamala Harris. During the twenty eighteen Senate confirmation hearing for

41
00:02:54,360 --> 00:03:03,359
Speaker 2: Ronald Vtello, she compares ICE to the KKK. Now, how

42
00:03:03,360 --> 00:03:06,320
Speaker 2: do you think these people feel doing their job a

43
00:03:06,360 --> 00:03:12,160
Speaker 2: tough job already. How do you think they feel being

44
00:03:12,440 --> 00:03:17,600
Speaker 2: compared to the clan? Listen to this audio.

45
00:03:17,800 --> 00:03:21,560
Speaker 5: Clan was what we would call today a domestic terrorist group.

46
00:03:21,960 --> 00:03:25,919
Speaker 6: Why why would we call them domestic terrorist group?

47
00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:29,799
Speaker 5: Because they tried to use fear and forced to change

48
00:03:29,800 --> 00:03:30,680
Speaker 5: political environment?

49
00:03:31,120 --> 00:03:33,520
Speaker 6: And what was the motivation for the use of fear and.

50
00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:35,240
Speaker 5: Force based on race and ethnicity?

51
00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:35,680
Speaker 4: Right?

52
00:03:36,960 --> 00:03:42,200
Speaker 6: Are you aware of the perception of many about how

53
00:03:42,320 --> 00:03:46,200
Speaker 6: the power and the discretion at ICE is being used

54
00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:50,160
Speaker 6: to enforce the laws? And do you see any parallels.

55
00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:53,520
Speaker 5: I do not see any parallels between I'm talking abouts

56
00:03:53,760 --> 00:03:54,160
Speaker 5: and agents.

57
00:03:54,200 --> 00:03:55,200
Speaker 6: I'm talking about perception.

58
00:03:56,000 --> 00:03:58,920
Speaker 5: I do not see a parallel between what is constitutionally

59
00:03:58,960 --> 00:04:01,280
Speaker 5: mandated as an it relates to enforcing the law.

60
00:04:01,440 --> 00:04:04,720
Speaker 6: Are you aware that there's a perception Are you aware

61
00:04:04,720 --> 00:04:05,200
Speaker 6: that there's.

62
00:04:05,040 --> 00:04:08,000
Speaker 5: A perception ICE in the same category as the KKK.

63
00:04:08,520 --> 00:04:09,520
Speaker 5: Is that where you're asking me?

64
00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:12,200
Speaker 6: No, I'm very specific about what I'm asking. Are you

65
00:04:12,280 --> 00:04:17,320
Speaker 6: aware of a perception that the way that the discretion

66
00:04:17,640 --> 00:04:19,080
Speaker 6: I'm not finished.

67
00:04:19,080 --> 00:04:19,640
Speaker 5: I see none.

68
00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:22,440
Speaker 6: I'm not finished. I'm not finished. Are you aware that

69
00:04:22,480 --> 00:04:28,159
Speaker 6: there's a perception that ICE is administering its power in

70
00:04:28,200 --> 00:04:35,840
Speaker 6: a way that is causing fear and intimidation, particularly among

71
00:04:36,160 --> 00:04:41,720
Speaker 6: immigrants and specifically among immigrants coming from Mexico and Central America.

72
00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:43,159
Speaker 6: Are you aware of that perception.

73
00:04:44,440 --> 00:04:47,120
Speaker 5: I do not see a parallel between the power and

74
00:04:47,200 --> 00:04:49,719
Speaker 5: the authority that ICE has to do its job and

75
00:04:49,760 --> 00:04:53,120
Speaker 5: the agents and officers who do it professionally and excellently

76
00:04:53,200 --> 00:04:54,400
Speaker 5: with lots of compassion.

77
00:04:54,680 --> 00:04:56,680
Speaker 6: Sir, How can you be the head of an agency

78
00:04:56,920 --> 00:05:00,440
Speaker 6: and be unaware of how your agency is perceived by

79
00:05:00,480 --> 00:05:01,320
Speaker 6: certain communities.

80
00:05:01,400 --> 00:05:03,400
Speaker 5: There is a lot of perceptions in the media and

81
00:05:03,440 --> 00:05:06,080
Speaker 5: in the public that are incorrect about the age.

82
00:05:05,960 --> 00:05:09,720
Speaker 6: But the perception exists. Would you agree whether or not

83
00:05:09,760 --> 00:05:12,360
Speaker 6: it's correct, And wouldn't you agree then that if that

84
00:05:12,440 --> 00:05:16,200
Speaker 6: perception exists, there might need to be some work done

85
00:05:16,960 --> 00:05:18,160
Speaker 6: to correct the perception.

86
00:05:19,800 --> 00:05:24,240
Speaker 5: I do want to advocate for the workforce, the vital

87
00:05:24,279 --> 00:05:27,040
Speaker 5: public safety mission that they have to protect the homeland,

88
00:05:27,360 --> 00:05:29,560
Speaker 5: and I think more people need to know how valuable

89
00:05:29,600 --> 00:05:32,120
Speaker 5: they are to the society. So I agree with you

90
00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:32,479
Speaker 5: on that.

91
00:05:34,520 --> 00:05:37,680
Speaker 6: So I understand your point that you want to defend

92
00:05:37,680 --> 00:05:39,320
Speaker 6: the honor of the good men and women who work

93
00:05:39,320 --> 00:05:42,520
Speaker 6: in the agency, and I appreciate that point, and I

94
00:05:42,520 --> 00:05:44,360
Speaker 6: know the vast majority of the men and women who

95
00:05:44,440 --> 00:05:47,119
Speaker 6: work in the agency do a noble and good job.

96
00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:51,320
Speaker 6: I'm not talking about that, talking about the perception.

97
00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:58,280
Speaker 2: Kamala Harris has taken a lot of criticism, and rightfully so,

98
00:05:59,080 --> 00:06:03,440
Speaker 2: for everything she has stood for already, all these things

99
00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:06,960
Speaker 2: that we're playing that she has said and done. She

100
00:06:07,040 --> 00:06:09,760
Speaker 2: now just oh, I want I want there to be

101
00:06:09,880 --> 00:06:13,400
Speaker 2: no tax on tips, when she casts the vote to

102
00:06:13,400 --> 00:06:17,640
Speaker 2: make sure that there were taxes on tips. She has

103
00:06:17,839 --> 00:06:21,520
Speaker 2: proudly been a far left progressive for years. It was

104
00:06:21,680 --> 00:06:26,839
Speaker 2: known that she is the most liberal member of the

105
00:06:26,960 --> 00:06:31,000
Speaker 2: United States Senate when she served there. Then she gets

106
00:06:31,120 --> 00:06:33,800
Speaker 2: the presidential nomination and all of a sudden they go, oh,

107
00:06:33,839 --> 00:06:35,320
Speaker 2: you got us run back to the middle.

108
00:06:36,920 --> 00:06:37,120
Speaker 7: Well.

109
00:06:37,120 --> 00:06:41,520
Speaker 2: Bernie Sanders was on Meet the Press, an avowed socialist

110
00:06:42,160 --> 00:06:47,960
Speaker 2: with Kristin Welker, and she asked Bernie about Kamala flip

111
00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:50,400
Speaker 2: flopping on the issues, and he says, no, no, no, don't worry.

112
00:06:51,200 --> 00:06:53,360
Speaker 2: She's still a radical lefty grime.

113
00:06:53,480 --> 00:06:57,560
Speaker 8: Vice President Kamala Harris as a progressive. She has previously

114
00:06:57,760 --> 00:07:01,520
Speaker 8: supported Medicare for all, now she does not. She's previously

115
00:07:01,560 --> 00:07:03,600
Speaker 8: supported a ban on fracking, Now.

116
00:07:03,720 --> 00:07:04,240
Speaker 1: She does not.

117
00:07:04,920 --> 00:07:08,760
Speaker 8: These sedlor are ideas that you have campaigned on. Do

118
00:07:08,839 --> 00:07:12,120
Speaker 8: you think that she is abandoning her progressive ideals.

119
00:07:12,800 --> 00:07:15,840
Speaker 7: No, I don't think she's abandoning her ideals. I think

120
00:07:15,880 --> 00:07:19,560
Speaker 7: she's trying to be pragmatic and doing what she thinks

121
00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:22,720
Speaker 7: is right in order to win the election. My own

122
00:07:22,800 --> 00:07:27,040
Speaker 7: view is slightly different. I think that in America today,

123
00:07:27,040 --> 00:07:30,720
Speaker 7: there are a lot of people, rural people, working class

124
00:07:30,760 --> 00:07:34,880
Speaker 7: people who no longer believe that the United States Congress

125
00:07:34,920 --> 00:07:38,920
Speaker 7: and government represents their interests. They're dominated by big money interests.

126
00:07:39,200 --> 00:07:43,960
Speaker 2: I need you to know that if you criticize Kamala

127
00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:51,360
Speaker 2: Harris or mispronounce her name, the Democrat media will call

128
00:07:51,440 --> 00:07:56,960
Speaker 2: you racist and sexist. But this wasn't always the case

129
00:07:59,280 --> 00:08:02,320
Speaker 2: for many of them. They will criticize your pronunciation of

130
00:08:02,360 --> 00:08:06,800
Speaker 2: her name, despite the fact that that's also how they

131
00:08:06,840 --> 00:08:12,720
Speaker 2: have repeatedly mispronounced her name. Most people don't know a

132
00:08:12,800 --> 00:08:18,600
Speaker 2: person named Kamala unless you're an old wrestling fan going

133
00:08:18,640 --> 00:08:19,040
Speaker 2: way back.

134
00:08:19,120 --> 00:08:19,960
Speaker 1: That's a different story.

135
00:08:21,400 --> 00:08:27,360
Speaker 2: My my wife's grandmother her first name. My wife is

136
00:08:27,400 --> 00:08:29,400
Speaker 2: from India. Most of you know, but we have new

137
00:08:29,640 --> 00:08:32,480
Speaker 2: listeners every day. My wife is from India and her

138
00:08:32,520 --> 00:08:38,400
Speaker 2: grandmother's first name was Cumla. You would think that would

139
00:08:38,440 --> 00:08:40,960
Speaker 2: be spelled k u m La Cumla.

140
00:08:42,360 --> 00:08:42,720
Speaker 1: It's not.

141
00:08:43,559 --> 00:08:50,920
Speaker 2: It's spelled Kama La. It's the same name. Kamala Harris

142
00:08:51,160 --> 00:08:57,080
Speaker 2: was named a popular Indian name. But when you grow

143
00:08:57,160 --> 00:09:01,679
Speaker 2: up in America, she grew up in Montreal, you have

144
00:09:01,800 --> 00:09:07,120
Speaker 2: to often americanize your name. My wife's name is Nunda,

145
00:09:07,200 --> 00:09:13,320
Speaker 2: though it's spelled Na Ndita. And sometimes people get confused

146
00:09:13,360 --> 00:09:18,440
Speaker 2: about spellings because once a spelling in English is chosen,

147
00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:22,760
Speaker 2: people want to pronounce it the way that word that

148
00:09:22,920 --> 00:09:29,440
Speaker 2: name is typically pronounced using the alphabet that we've grown

149
00:09:29,440 --> 00:09:34,880
Speaker 2: accustomed to understandable, But you have to remember these names

150
00:09:35,320 --> 00:09:40,640
Speaker 2: didn't come from English. They come from the Sanskrit. Their

151
00:09:40,720 --> 00:09:47,920
Speaker 2: Sanskrit spellings and sounds. So when you try to convert

152
00:09:47,960 --> 00:09:51,840
Speaker 2: them into an English sound, and then that to an

153
00:09:51,880 --> 00:09:55,840
Speaker 2: American sound, you try to find letters that correspond. But

154
00:09:55,960 --> 00:09:58,920
Speaker 2: what we have a tendency to do, which is completely natural,

155
00:09:59,720 --> 00:10:02,760
Speaker 2: is to read those letters the way we do for

156
00:10:02,880 --> 00:10:05,320
Speaker 2: other words, and sometimes that doesn't line up with the

157
00:10:05,360 --> 00:10:11,000
Speaker 2: original pronunciation. The upshot of all of this is nobody

158
00:10:11,160 --> 00:10:17,920
Speaker 2: knows anyone named Kamala. Kamala Kamala or anything else. People

159
00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:23,080
Speaker 2: are trying to pronounce her name. However it is that

160
00:10:23,240 --> 00:10:27,839
Speaker 2: she pronounces it. They don't know and they haven't met her.

161
00:10:28,320 --> 00:10:34,800
Speaker 2: That doesn't make them racist. Now that brings us to

162
00:10:35,280 --> 00:10:41,040
Speaker 2: Joe Scarborough and his mistress. They do the show Morning Joe.

163
00:10:41,960 --> 00:10:47,319
Speaker 2: He didn't like Kamala Harris. He didn't like her because

164
00:10:48,040 --> 00:10:51,280
Speaker 2: he thought she was going to drag down Joe Biden.

165
00:10:52,520 --> 00:10:56,440
Speaker 2: Her poll numbers were the lowest of any vice president

166
00:10:56,520 --> 00:10:59,800
Speaker 2: since we've been polling, or any president for that matter,

167
00:11:00,320 --> 00:11:05,480
Speaker 2: well below thirty percent. It wasn't so long ago that

168
00:11:05,600 --> 00:11:11,280
Speaker 2: she was an unpopular vice president and you could criticize her,

169
00:11:12,240 --> 00:11:18,160
Speaker 2: and most Democrats did. And MSNBC's Joe Scarborough here he

170
00:11:18,320 --> 00:11:22,480
Speaker 2: is declaring that none of the criticisms she gets is

171
00:11:22,520 --> 00:11:28,400
Speaker 2: because she's black or a woman. Update nowadays it's all

172
00:11:28,559 --> 00:11:32,120
Speaker 2: because she's a black or a woman. But listen to this.

173
00:11:32,440 --> 00:11:34,880
Speaker 9: I want to talking about this Kamala Harrison, because it's

174
00:11:34,880 --> 00:11:35,960
Speaker 9: whispered all the time.

175
00:11:36,080 --> 00:11:39,520
Speaker 10: It's whispered Kamala Harrison. She's so horrible.

176
00:11:40,800 --> 00:11:42,200
Speaker 1: Nobody's going to vote for Joe Biden.

177
00:11:42,240 --> 00:11:49,520
Speaker 10: Because, first of all, let me say it again, nobody

178
00:11:50,200 --> 00:11:55,800
Speaker 10: in the history of America, has ever voted for a

179
00:11:56,320 --> 00:12:03,040
Speaker 10: presidential candidate because of the vice president? It doesn't happen.

180
00:12:03,280 --> 00:12:08,720
Speaker 9: That's one Number two. Kamala Harris. Oh, they're being so

181
00:12:08,840 --> 00:12:12,200
Speaker 9: mean to Kamala Harris. They're racist. She's a woman. They're

182
00:12:12,240 --> 00:12:15,280
Speaker 9: scared of her because she's a black woman. They hate

183
00:12:15,320 --> 00:12:19,240
Speaker 9: black women. They're scared of Has anybody ever heard of

184
00:12:19,400 --> 00:12:25,800
Speaker 9: dan Quell not black or a woman that guy got

185
00:12:26,000 --> 00:12:31,120
Speaker 9: ray teller that calls unmercifully. Has anybody ever heard of

186
00:12:31,280 --> 00:12:34,559
Speaker 9: George Herbert Walker Bush?

187
00:12:35,200 --> 00:12:36,000
Speaker 1: That guy?

188
00:12:36,960 --> 00:12:41,720
Speaker 10: That guy got destroyed? Why because he was a vice friend?

189
00:12:41,840 --> 00:12:46,520
Speaker 9: You remember the wimp factor, Like that was his cover

190
00:12:46,800 --> 00:12:51,959
Speaker 9: as vice president, the wimp factor. I mean, here's a

191
00:12:52,200 --> 00:12:56,200
Speaker 9: guy that was a hero in World War Two. Here's

192
00:12:56,320 --> 00:13:01,040
Speaker 9: the guy that voted against racism and public housing when

193
00:13:01,040 --> 00:13:05,240
Speaker 9: he was representing Texas extraordin. I mean, here was a

194
00:13:05,360 --> 00:13:10,240
Speaker 9: courageous guy. The medium mocked and ridicule rated him over

195
00:13:10,280 --> 00:13:12,680
Speaker 9: the codes the way he became president of ISAAC. So

196
00:13:13,400 --> 00:13:16,520
Speaker 9: I'm just tired of hearing people's ol coma s it's

197
00:13:16,600 --> 00:13:19,600
Speaker 9: because she's black and she's a woman, and she's whatever,

198
00:13:19,640 --> 00:13:22,840
Speaker 9: and fret no, she's vice president.
