Later today, 7 00:00:18,440 --> 00:00:20,320 Speaker 1: in the third hour, we'll have a couple of different 8 00:00:20,400 --> 00:00:24,080 Speaker 1: United States Senators in with us, Marsha Blackburn at two 9 00:00:24,160 --> 00:00:27,800 Speaker 1: oh five and Tommy Tuberville at two thirty five. Tommy 10 00:00:27,800 --> 00:00:30,160 Speaker 1: Tuberville of course announced I believe it was last week 11 00:00:30,200 --> 00:00:32,519 Speaker 1: on this program that he would be running for governor 12 00:00:33,000 --> 00:00:36,680 Speaker 1: of Alabama. So he will, I think soon be governor 13 00:00:36,680 --> 00:00:39,120 Speaker 1: a great state of Alabama, but also in the meantime 14 00:00:39,560 --> 00:00:43,840 Speaker 1: a United States Senator, and they're working through the big 15 00:00:43,920 --> 00:00:47,240 Speaker 1: beautiful bill there in the process of trying to get 16 00:00:47,280 --> 00:00:50,120 Speaker 1: that figured out on the Senate side, as it has 17 00:00:50,240 --> 00:00:53,720 Speaker 1: already passed the House side. I have sent in a 18 00:00:53,720 --> 00:00:58,160 Speaker 1: couple of additional clips as it continues to grow. The 19 00:00:58,240 --> 00:01:01,040 Speaker 1: fallout of the LA pro test and you just heard 20 00:01:01,080 --> 00:01:04,360 Speaker 1: us a little bit ago talking with Riley Gaines, who 21 00:01:04,600 --> 00:01:08,040 Speaker 1: was fabulous will dive into a bit more what was 22 00:01:08,160 --> 00:01:12,360 Speaker 1: going on there. Uh, But it turns out that there's 23 00:01:12,520 --> 00:01:16,720 Speaker 1: actually a huge level of support for Trump when it 24 00:01:16,760 --> 00:01:21,080 Speaker 1: comes to the deportations all over the nation. And I 25 00:01:21,120 --> 00:01:25,399 Speaker 1: think this is yet another issue that Democrats are losing on. 26 00:01:26,640 --> 00:01:29,880 Speaker 1: And I want to play for you the awful governor 27 00:01:30,040 --> 00:01:34,839 Speaker 1: of California, Gavin Newsom, in addition to Karen Bass, the mayor, 28 00:01:35,520 --> 00:01:39,520 Speaker 1: we have them trying to blame Donald Trump for what 29 00:01:39,720 --> 00:01:43,040 Speaker 1: is going on in LA. And I want to open 30 00:01:43,120 --> 00:01:47,000 Speaker 1: up phone lines for I'm asking for just people in 31 00:01:47,040 --> 00:01:51,080 Speaker 1: the Los Angeles area who want to weigh in eight 32 00:01:51,160 --> 00:01:55,240 Speaker 1: hundred two eight two two eight eight two, and in particular, 33 00:01:55,360 --> 00:01:58,440 Speaker 1: I want to know how this is playing with people 34 00:01:58,480 --> 00:02:01,680 Speaker 1: that you are talking with. And some of you out 35 00:02:01,680 --> 00:02:05,240 Speaker 1: there say, well, I don't care. California is a blue state. 36 00:02:05,320 --> 00:02:07,600 Speaker 1: They are morons like let their city burn. 37 00:02:08,720 --> 00:02:11,040 Speaker 2: I don't agree. I think that. 38 00:02:11,520 --> 00:02:16,800 Speaker 1: There are around forty percent of Californians that are big 39 00:02:17,240 --> 00:02:22,080 Speaker 1: Trump supporters that recognize that they are in many ways 40 00:02:22,160 --> 00:02:26,400 Speaker 1: behind enemy lines, fighting for truth insanity in a state that. 41 00:02:26,320 --> 00:02:30,760 Speaker 2: They wag may well love. And we have had on. 42 00:02:32,560 --> 00:02:36,919 Speaker 1: Our friend from California who is running for governor right now, 43 00:02:37,400 --> 00:02:41,600 Speaker 1: Steve Hilton several different times to talk about the arguments 44 00:02:41,639 --> 00:02:43,800 Speaker 1: that he is making. And I don't think you can 45 00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:49,280 Speaker 1: see these LA riots in the in the aftermath of 46 00:02:49,560 --> 00:02:53,560 Speaker 1: what happened with the LA wildfires and not see how 47 00:02:53,600 --> 00:02:57,680 Speaker 1: they are connected. The LA wildfires were finally contained on 48 00:02:57,800 --> 00:03:00,920 Speaker 1: January thirty. First, a lot of you out there listening 49 00:03:00,960 --> 00:03:03,960 Speaker 1: have friends and family that lost homes in those LA 50 00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:07,880 Speaker 1: wildfires due to a large extent because of government and competence. 51 00:03:08,280 --> 00:03:11,359 Speaker 1: And now government and competence is forcing the hard working 52 00:03:11,360 --> 00:03:14,560 Speaker 1: men and women of the LA Police Department to actually 53 00:03:14,600 --> 00:03:19,880 Speaker 1: deal with people throwing projectiles at them, burning their cars down. 54 00:03:20,360 --> 00:03:23,480 Speaker 1: And I'll just point out that in a city that 55 00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:28,160 Speaker 1: just had a massive wildfire issue, allowing fires to be 56 00:03:28,639 --> 00:03:34,560 Speaker 1: started for any reason is a particularly dangerous and pernicious act, because, yes, 57 00:03:34,600 --> 00:03:37,800 Speaker 1: we don't ever want to see riots lead to looting 58 00:03:37,960 --> 00:03:41,920 Speaker 1: and burning anywhere, but in Los Angeles, a city that 59 00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:46,880 Speaker 1: we all know is uniquely susceptible to the dangers of arson. 60 00:03:47,520 --> 00:03:51,640 Speaker 1: It's even probably the worst place in America where we 61 00:03:51,760 --> 00:03:57,400 Speaker 1: could be allowing looting, violent behavior, and arson because how 62 00:03:57,480 --> 00:04:01,960 Speaker 1: quickly it could spread and take over the city, as 63 00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:06,840 Speaker 1: we just saw in January now as Trump is the 64 00:04:06,920 --> 00:04:11,520 Speaker 1: reason for everything. Mayor Karen bass is saying, hey, this 65 00:04:12,080 --> 00:04:16,880 Speaker 1: chaos is actually Trump's fault. Listen to Cut nine. 66 00:04:17,560 --> 00:04:22,520 Speaker 3: What we're seeing in LA is chaos caused by the administration. 67 00:04:23,320 --> 00:04:26,320 Speaker 3: People should exercise their right to protest, that's their First 68 00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:32,520 Speaker 3: Amendment right, but people should also exercise that right peacefully. 69 00:04:32,680 --> 00:04:35,520 Speaker 3: We do not want to play into the administration's hands. 70 00:04:35,880 --> 00:04:40,159 Speaker 3: We're working with officials, we're organizing resources. But what we're 71 00:04:40,200 --> 00:04:43,240 Speaker 3: seeing in Los Angeles is chaos that is provoked by 72 00:04:43,240 --> 00:04:44,720 Speaker 3: the administration. 73 00:04:45,320 --> 00:04:51,000 Speaker 1: Provoked trying to get violent illegal criminals out of LA 74 00:04:51,200 --> 00:04:56,280 Speaker 1: to help it be safer for everyone. Democrat, Republican and independent. 75 00:04:56,400 --> 00:04:59,120 Speaker 1: This is Trump's fault. And if you thought it was 76 00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:02,200 Speaker 1: just the mayor of Los Angeles, the incompetent and should 77 00:05:02,279 --> 00:05:04,880 Speaker 1: be removed and impeached. Mayor of Los Angeles who could 78 00:05:04,960 --> 00:05:07,520 Speaker 1: not stop the fires from burning. And might I remind 79 00:05:07,600 --> 00:05:10,359 Speaker 1: you was out of the country despite being warned that 80 00:05:10,440 --> 00:05:15,000 Speaker 1: there were very dangerous wildfire like conditions. Gavin Newsom says, 81 00:05:15,400 --> 00:05:21,160 Speaker 1: arrest me. This is how California's governor responds to police 82 00:05:21,200 --> 00:05:25,240 Speaker 1: officers being attacked and having their cars lit on fire. 83 00:05:25,360 --> 00:05:27,440 Speaker 2: Cut thirteen he's a tough guy. Wasn't he do that? 84 00:05:27,440 --> 00:05:29,520 Speaker 4: And he knows where to find me. But you know what, 85 00:05:30,320 --> 00:05:32,640 Speaker 4: let your hands off four year old girls that are 86 00:05:32,640 --> 00:05:33,640 Speaker 4: trying to get educated. 87 00:05:34,400 --> 00:05:35,200 Speaker 2: Put your hands off. 88 00:05:35,240 --> 00:05:38,160 Speaker 4: These poor people are just trying to get live their lives. Man, 89 00:05:38,960 --> 00:05:40,760 Speaker 4: trying to live their lives pain, their tax has been 90 00:05:40,760 --> 00:05:45,120 Speaker 4: here ten years, the fear, the horror, the hell is 91 00:05:45,160 --> 00:05:45,520 Speaker 4: this guy? 92 00:05:45,880 --> 00:05:48,120 Speaker 2: Come after me? Arrest me. Let's just get it over with. 93 00:05:48,480 --> 00:05:48,960 Speaker 2: Tough guy. 94 00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:52,560 Speaker 4: You know, I don't give a damn, but I care 95 00:05:52,600 --> 00:05:55,800 Speaker 4: about my community. I care about this community. The hell 96 00:05:55,839 --> 00:05:58,280 Speaker 4: are they doing? These guys need to grow up. They 97 00:05:58,279 --> 00:06:01,440 Speaker 4: need to stop, and we need to push back. And 98 00:06:01,480 --> 00:06:03,960 Speaker 4: I'm sorry to be so clear, but that kind of 99 00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:05,320 Speaker 4: bloviating is exhausting. 100 00:06:05,640 --> 00:06:11,760 Speaker 2: So Tom arrested me. Let's go arrest me. Honestly, I 101 00:06:11,760 --> 00:06:12,920 Speaker 2: think you should be impeached. 102 00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:17,080 Speaker 1: I think that the people of California have been led 103 00:06:17,080 --> 00:06:19,719 Speaker 1: astray by Gavin Newsom, who is one of the worst mayors. 104 00:06:20,080 --> 00:06:20,800 Speaker 2: Sorry, one of the worst. 105 00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:23,160 Speaker 1: Well he wasn't a great mayor either of San Francisco, 106 00:06:23,200 --> 00:06:25,040 Speaker 1: but one of the worst governors that we've ever seen. 107 00:06:25,360 --> 00:06:27,640 Speaker 1: And people are voting with their feet. They have fled 108 00:06:27,680 --> 00:06:31,920 Speaker 1: California talked about this. California became a state in eighteen fifty. 109 00:06:32,680 --> 00:06:38,480 Speaker 1: From eighteen fifty to twenty twenty, California's population increased every 110 00:06:38,600 --> 00:06:42,919 Speaker 1: year eighteen fifty to twenty twenty. Suddenly, in twenty twenty, 111 00:06:42,960 --> 00:06:46,360 Speaker 1: California's population started to decline. The only reason California's decline 112 00:06:46,400 --> 00:06:51,360 Speaker 1: hasn't declined even more precipitously illegal immigrants. But the actual 113 00:06:51,440 --> 00:06:54,680 Speaker 1: number of residents of California has been declining year after 114 00:06:54,839 --> 00:06:58,880 Speaker 1: year during Gavin Newsom's tenure. People are voting with their 115 00:06:58,920 --> 00:07:02,000 Speaker 1: feet and leaving that state. And that's despite the fact 116 00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:04,640 Speaker 1: that in many ways, as many of you listening to 117 00:07:04,640 --> 00:07:06,520 Speaker 1: me in California know right now, I've spent a lot 118 00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:09,680 Speaker 1: of time in California. Probably the city that I'm in 119 00:07:09,760 --> 00:07:10,240 Speaker 1: right now. 120 00:07:10,240 --> 00:07:10,920 Speaker 2: Washington, d C. 121 00:07:11,520 --> 00:07:14,720 Speaker 1: I live in Nashville. Nashville is number one city I've 122 00:07:14,720 --> 00:07:16,800 Speaker 1: spent the most time in. I went to college here 123 00:07:16,840 --> 00:07:20,560 Speaker 1: in Washington, d C. Number two. La number three. I 124 00:07:20,640 --> 00:07:24,120 Speaker 1: have spent years of my life because Fox Sports is 125 00:07:24,160 --> 00:07:28,160 Speaker 1: based in LA, traveling back and forth in LA. I 126 00:07:28,240 --> 00:07:30,240 Speaker 1: love a lot of the people in LA. It's a 127 00:07:30,280 --> 00:07:33,840 Speaker 1: fabulous place, Garden of Eden in many ways they have 128 00:07:33,960 --> 00:07:38,960 Speaker 1: destroyed it. Democrat rule, both the mayor and the governor, 129 00:07:39,120 --> 00:07:43,760 Speaker 1: the congressmen and women, the Kamala Harrises of the world 130 00:07:44,080 --> 00:07:48,240 Speaker 1: have taken a true American Garden of Eden, and they 131 00:07:48,320 --> 00:07:54,440 Speaker 1: have both metaphorically and unfortunately oftentimes legitimately, Democrats have lit 132 00:07:54,520 --> 00:07:57,280 Speaker 1: that city in state on fire. And that's what we're 133 00:07:57,280 --> 00:08:01,200 Speaker 1: seeing right now, is we are seeing the major consequences 134 00:08:01,240 --> 00:08:06,600 Speaker 1: of a series of awful decisions being made time after 135 00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:11,640 Speaker 1: time after time. And this is significant. The overwhelming majority 136 00:08:11,680 --> 00:08:14,760 Speaker 1: of Americans are seeing what Trump is doing on immigration 137 00:08:14,960 --> 00:08:18,280 Speaker 1: and they're saying this is the right choice. 138 00:08:18,320 --> 00:08:19,360 Speaker 2: Listen, this is CNN. 139 00:08:19,760 --> 00:08:22,560 Speaker 1: So what CNN had on this morning, Cut twenty six 140 00:08:23,040 --> 00:08:27,680 Speaker 1: the Trump approval rating on immigration surging like a rocket. 141 00:08:28,040 --> 00:08:30,280 Speaker 1: According to CNN, this is what they were saying this morning. 142 00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:31,280 Speaker 1: Listen to cut twenty six. 143 00:08:31,320 --> 00:08:32,520 Speaker 5: You know, if we just take a look at the 144 00:08:32,559 --> 00:08:36,559 Speaker 5: baseline numbers here, this is Trump's net approval rating on immigration. 145 00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:39,679 Speaker 5: It's gone up like a rocket compared now versus eight 146 00:08:39,760 --> 00:08:41,840 Speaker 5: years ago. During Trump's first term, look at this, and 147 00:08:41,880 --> 00:08:45,400 Speaker 5: his first term, Trump was way way way underwater minus. 148 00:08:45,120 --> 00:08:47,200 Speaker 2: Twenty one points. But look at this, He's up over 149 00:08:47,240 --> 00:08:49,920 Speaker 2: twenty points now in the aggregate, he. 150 00:08:49,960 --> 00:08:53,040 Speaker 5: Is in positive territory if plus one point on his 151 00:08:53,160 --> 00:08:55,439 Speaker 5: net approval rating. Some other polls even have it a 152 00:08:55,480 --> 00:08:58,360 Speaker 5: little bit higher than that. There is no issue on 153 00:08:58,440 --> 00:09:01,200 Speaker 5: which Trump is doing so much better than he was 154 00:09:01,240 --> 00:09:04,040 Speaker 5: in his first term more than the issue of immigration. 155 00:09:04,520 --> 00:09:06,520 Speaker 2: No wonder The Times has written up the way that 156 00:09:06,559 --> 00:09:06,840 Speaker 2: he is. 157 00:09:06,920 --> 00:09:08,960 Speaker 5: Trump is begging for a fight on this because he 158 00:09:09,040 --> 00:09:11,800 Speaker 5: knows what he's doing so far is working with the 159 00:09:11,840 --> 00:09:13,000 Speaker 5: American electorate. 160 00:09:14,160 --> 00:09:17,760 Speaker 1: Nothing has he been more right about in his entire 161 00:09:17,840 --> 00:09:21,200 Speaker 1: political career than immigration. And as he has made the 162 00:09:21,360 --> 00:09:25,240 Speaker 1: argument over the last nine years, ten years since he 163 00:09:25,320 --> 00:09:29,679 Speaker 1: came down that escalator at Trump Tower, the American public 164 00:09:29,720 --> 00:09:33,120 Speaker 1: has come to see Trump was right, and Biden, I 165 00:09:33,160 --> 00:09:36,199 Speaker 1: really believe this allowed an invasion of this country. 166 00:09:36,280 --> 00:09:36,960 Speaker 2: You see all those. 167 00:09:36,800 --> 00:09:42,960 Speaker 1: People waving Mexican flags as they burned American vehicles, as 168 00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:48,600 Speaker 1: they threw rocks at American police. It is a sign 169 00:09:49,120 --> 00:09:53,160 Speaker 1: that we have lost much of our country. You engage 170 00:09:53,200 --> 00:09:58,559 Speaker 1: in violent behavior while waving the flag of another country. 171 00:09:58,880 --> 00:10:03,400 Speaker 1: What else is that but an invasion and an actual insurrection. 172 00:10:04,440 --> 00:10:09,600 Speaker 1: CNN confronted Mayor Karen Bass about this, saying, hey, there's 173 00:10:09,720 --> 00:10:14,560 Speaker 1: overwhelming support for President Trump's deportation agenda. What do you 174 00:10:14,640 --> 00:10:17,079 Speaker 1: have to say about that? This was cut twenty seven 175 00:10:17,200 --> 00:10:21,760 Speaker 1: a little bit earlier. Are Democrats out of touch on 176 00:10:21,800 --> 00:10:22,600 Speaker 1: this issue? 177 00:10:22,920 --> 00:10:25,360 Speaker 6: Well, I think if you did the polling in Los Angeles, 178 00:10:25,440 --> 00:10:27,840 Speaker 6: I'm not sure it would be that way, considering we 179 00:10:27,960 --> 00:10:32,160 Speaker 6: are a city of immigrants, and then people might approve 180 00:10:32,600 --> 00:10:37,160 Speaker 6: that policy. But do people really approve the federal government 181 00:10:37,240 --> 00:10:39,840 Speaker 6: coming in and seizing power from a state and from 182 00:10:39,880 --> 00:10:42,800 Speaker 6: a city. So I drilled down a little further on 183 00:10:42,880 --> 00:10:47,120 Speaker 6: that poll because I do not believe that Americans support 184 00:10:47,320 --> 00:10:50,800 Speaker 6: the federal intervention in a city takeover or a state takeover. 185 00:10:51,320 --> 00:10:53,440 Speaker 1: It's not a city or state takeover, it's a city 186 00:10:53,480 --> 00:10:55,880 Speaker 1: at state protection because the people in charge of the 187 00:10:55,920 --> 00:10:58,560 Speaker 1: city and state are unwilling to protect the people who 188 00:10:58,640 --> 00:11:01,440 Speaker 1: live there. Trump is doing what they should be doing 189 00:11:01,679 --> 00:11:04,319 Speaker 1: and what unfortunately he has to do. And let me 190 00:11:04,400 --> 00:11:06,240 Speaker 1: say this, I'm probably gonna get people fired up about this. 191 00:11:06,679 --> 00:11:11,079 Speaker 1: I just shared a video. It's a video of LA 192 00:11:11,160 --> 00:11:17,400 Speaker 1: police officers trying to hide underneath an overpass as big 193 00:11:17,640 --> 00:11:22,960 Speaker 1: rocks are being thrown at them, later effectively molotov cocktails 194 00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:26,679 Speaker 1: being thrown at them. Why shouldn't the LA Police Department 195 00:11:26,720 --> 00:11:30,160 Speaker 1: be able to open up fire? I mean this honestly. 196 00:11:31,360 --> 00:11:35,640 Speaker 1: If you are being attacked potentially by someone who is 197 00:11:35,679 --> 00:11:39,640 Speaker 1: putting your body and your safety in peril, it is 198 00:11:39,720 --> 00:11:42,040 Speaker 1: not crazy to think that one of these officers could 199 00:11:42,080 --> 00:11:44,360 Speaker 1: get hit by a big rock and die. It is 200 00:11:44,400 --> 00:11:46,520 Speaker 1: not crazy to think that one of these officers could 201 00:11:46,559 --> 00:11:49,880 Speaker 1: get hit by one of these molotov cocktails. You should 202 00:11:49,880 --> 00:11:53,560 Speaker 1: be able to open fire. I think they should wipe 203 00:11:53,559 --> 00:11:56,720 Speaker 1: these guys out. I'm sorry, I'm past the point of 204 00:11:56,760 --> 00:12:01,080 Speaker 1: being concerned when someone is on an overpass throwing rocks 205 00:12:01,120 --> 00:12:04,520 Speaker 1: at you, When they are throwing molotov cocktails at your 206 00:12:04,559 --> 00:12:08,400 Speaker 1: police vehicles, the police should be able to open fire 207 00:12:08,520 --> 00:12:09,800 Speaker 1: and wipe those dudes out. 208 00:12:10,200 --> 00:12:10,640 Speaker 2: I'm sorry. 209 00:12:10,679 --> 00:12:14,120 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna apologize for that, because their lives are 210 00:12:14,120 --> 00:12:17,480 Speaker 1: in danger. Their friends' lives are in danger that they're 211 00:12:17,480 --> 00:12:21,079 Speaker 1: working with. We got to stop this Namby Pamby. Police 212 00:12:21,120 --> 00:12:22,319 Speaker 1: can't defend themselves. 213 00:12:22,360 --> 00:12:22,640 Speaker 2: Bs. 214 00:12:22,720 --> 00:12:24,800 Speaker 1: I gotta be careful not to curse here, because when 215 00:12:24,800 --> 00:12:27,560 Speaker 1: I watch those videos, I get angry, and I know 216 00:12:27,600 --> 00:12:29,960 Speaker 1: a lot of y'all are police officers military that are 217 00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:30,880 Speaker 1: listening right now. 218 00:12:31,320 --> 00:12:32,320 Speaker 2: When you see. 219 00:12:32,160 --> 00:12:37,199 Speaker 1: People putting police officers lives in danger. Those guys should 220 00:12:37,200 --> 00:12:40,640 Speaker 1: get wiped out. I'm sorry. Police should open fire, they 221 00:12:40,640 --> 00:12:43,160 Speaker 1: should hit them, they should wipe them out. They should 222 00:12:43,240 --> 00:12:45,920 Speaker 1: arrest them if they're still alive, cuff them throwing the 223 00:12:45,920 --> 00:12:48,040 Speaker 1: back of the cruiser, prosecute them to the full extent 224 00:12:48,120 --> 00:12:50,319 Speaker 1: of the law. I don't think this is a difficult 225 00:12:50,360 --> 00:12:53,480 Speaker 1: decision at all. Again, I'm talking about the videos. You 226 00:12:53,520 --> 00:12:55,440 Speaker 1: go to my Twitter account, we'll share it from Clay 227 00:12:55,480 --> 00:13:00,000 Speaker 1: and Buck. The videos that are out there of police officers, 228 00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:03,000 Speaker 1: wives being put in danger and they're just supposed to 229 00:13:03,000 --> 00:13:06,840 Speaker 1: sit there and take it. No, the message that would 230 00:13:06,880 --> 00:13:10,400 Speaker 1: be sent is when you attack police officers, you should 231 00:13:10,440 --> 00:13:14,240 Speaker 1: expect to die. That should be the message. Not talking 232 00:13:14,240 --> 00:13:19,400 Speaker 1: about peaceful protest, but when you are throwing from an 233 00:13:19,400 --> 00:13:23,280 Speaker 1: overpass big huge pieces of rock that if they hit 234 00:13:23,320 --> 00:13:27,240 Speaker 1: people would kill them. When you are throwing molotov cocktails 235 00:13:27,320 --> 00:13:32,440 Speaker 1: designed to light police vehicles on fire, you shouldn't be 236 00:13:32,480 --> 00:13:36,439 Speaker 1: able to do that. Police should be able to respond 237 00:13:36,480 --> 00:13:40,600 Speaker 1: with force. And I think if they responded with force suddenly, 238 00:13:40,679 --> 00:13:44,839 Speaker 1: all these Antifa lunatics would say, wait a minute, maybe 239 00:13:44,880 --> 00:13:48,599 Speaker 1: we shouldn't be doing this. Maybe there are real consequences 240 00:13:48,640 --> 00:13:53,600 Speaker 1: for our behavior. The entire reason that we have laws 241 00:13:54,720 --> 00:13:57,840 Speaker 1: is because we have the idea that people are going 242 00:13:57,920 --> 00:14:01,920 Speaker 1: to respond rationally who consequences that are laid out against 243 00:14:01,960 --> 00:14:05,920 Speaker 1: them when it comes to violent behavior. Clearly that hasn't worked. 244 00:14:07,040 --> 00:14:10,640 Speaker 1: And so when you have people engaging in violent attacks 245 00:14:10,679 --> 00:14:12,599 Speaker 1: on police, I think the police should be able to 246 00:14:12,640 --> 00:14:16,000 Speaker 1: open fire wipe them out. So you're gonna be angry 247 00:14:16,000 --> 00:14:18,480 Speaker 1: about that. I'm not gonna apologize for it. I don't 248 00:14:18,480 --> 00:14:20,400 Speaker 1: know how many other people are making that argument. I'm 249 00:14:20,440 --> 00:14:23,320 Speaker 1: not sure that anybody else has, But I'm just gonna 250 00:14:23,360 --> 00:14:24,640 Speaker 1: tell you exactly what I think. 251 00:14:25,480 --> 00:14:26,560 Speaker 2: Those police officers. 252 00:14:26,720 --> 00:14:31,080 Speaker 1: Their lives should not be in danger because these lunatics 253 00:14:31,480 --> 00:14:34,960 Speaker 1: feel like that they can just throw rocks from an 254 00:14:35,000 --> 00:14:38,960 Speaker 1: overpass and molotov cocktails from an overpass at police officers 255 00:14:39,120 --> 00:14:42,640 Speaker 1: and there's not gonna be any consequences at all. Hope 256 00:14:42,800 --> 00:14:46,800 Speaker 1: give them the ability to return fire. Your lives are 257 00:14:46,800 --> 00:14:50,000 Speaker 1: in danger. You shouldn't have to stand there and just 258 00:14:50,040 --> 00:14:54,440 Speaker 1: get pelted and just watch your police cruiser burn because 259 00:14:54,520 --> 00:14:57,080 Speaker 1: the people that are your bosses are too much of 260 00:14:57,160 --> 00:15:00,760 Speaker 1: cowards to allow you to defend yourself. So and I 261 00:15:00,800 --> 00:15:03,280 Speaker 1: would ask the President to say the same thing. Hey, 262 00:15:03,760 --> 00:15:07,680 Speaker 1: every police officer in America, I will pardon you if 263 00:15:07,720 --> 00:15:11,000 Speaker 1: you are being attacked and you need to defend yourself, 264 00:15:11,360 --> 00:15:14,000 Speaker 1: do it. I've got your back. I think you would 265 00:15:14,040 --> 00:15:17,760 Speaker 1: see things change in a hurry when it comes to violent, 266 00:15:18,280 --> 00:15:21,800 Speaker 1: criminal protesting behavior. Look, I want to take a minute 267 00:15:21,840 --> 00:15:24,200 Speaker 1: here to speak about the one federal government agency that 268 00:15:24,320 --> 00:15:27,160 Speaker 1: doesn't deliver a lot of good news, the IRS.

It's a little bit 342 00:19:27,240 --> 00:19:30,520 Speaker 1: difficult to hear because you can still hear the helicopter 343 00:19:30,720 --> 00:19:33,720 Speaker 1: in the background. But he said if he were Tom 344 00:19:33,720 --> 00:19:38,439 Speaker 1: Homan that he would arrest Gavin Newsom. But we have 345 00:19:38,560 --> 00:19:40,000 Speaker 1: several of you who want to weigh in again, I 346 00:19:40,040 --> 00:19:42,680 Speaker 1: would love to hear. I've asked for two different types 347 00:19:42,720 --> 00:19:47,840 Speaker 1: of callers so far. LA Area people, particularly, what are 348 00:19:47,880 --> 00:19:53,800 Speaker 1: the conversations like for your in your conversations that you 349 00:19:53,920 --> 00:19:57,359 Speaker 1: are hearing now as the riots played out over the 350 00:19:57,359 --> 00:20:00,200 Speaker 1: weekend LA only I understand. 351 00:19:59,800 --> 00:20:00,320 Speaker 2: The lot of you. 352 00:20:00,320 --> 00:20:02,600 Speaker 1: I'm just curious about people who are actually living there. 353 00:20:02,960 --> 00:20:08,040 Speaker 1: And then secondarily the videos cops that you have seen, 354 00:20:08,800 --> 00:20:17,359 Speaker 1: is deadly force warranted when there are bricks, concrete, big rocks, 355 00:20:17,520 --> 00:20:22,520 Speaker 1: objects being pelted at police as well as molotov cocktails 356 00:20:22,640 --> 00:20:25,800 Speaker 1: thrown at their police vehicles. To me, this is not 357 00:20:25,880 --> 00:20:28,760 Speaker 1: even a difficult call. I'm sure the police have been 358 00:20:28,760 --> 00:20:33,120 Speaker 1: told that they cannot take action. But as for police 359 00:20:33,160 --> 00:20:35,720 Speaker 1: that are out there listening, and I would like for 360 00:20:35,760 --> 00:20:38,080 Speaker 1: you to watch the videos. If you haven't already seen them, 361 00:20:38,119 --> 00:20:39,960 Speaker 1: they're up at MA. You can just go to Clay 362 00:20:40,000 --> 00:20:43,399 Speaker 1: Travis on Twitter and you can see the videos that 363 00:20:43,440 --> 00:20:47,080 Speaker 1: I'm talking about. But am I wrong that deadly force 364 00:20:47,280 --> 00:20:52,959 Speaker 1: is warranted here? Let's see Jonathan in LA. What do 365 00:20:53,000 --> 00:20:57,040 Speaker 1: you think as you are watching these in your home city. 366 00:20:59,119 --> 00:21:02,080 Speaker 7: Yeah, we're here in the LA area and I was 367 00:21:02,200 --> 00:21:05,480 Speaker 7: driving down to take my wife and kids to the airport. 368 00:21:06,000 --> 00:21:09,520 Speaker 7: And if they're saying there's nothing going on, it's it's 369 00:21:09,600 --> 00:21:14,560 Speaker 7: totally orchestrated and it's totally fraudulent. I watched twenty one 370 00:21:15,040 --> 00:21:20,800 Speaker 7: marked and unmarked cars cop cars speeding down the express 371 00:21:20,960 --> 00:21:25,800 Speaker 7: lane towards downtown LA. I don't do that just for fun. 372 00:21:26,440 --> 00:21:29,400 Speaker 7: There's something going on, and it's clearly it was clearly 373 00:21:29,760 --> 00:21:33,600 Speaker 7: you know, in a huge hurry. I do know, and 374 00:21:33,640 --> 00:21:36,800 Speaker 7: I will I will say this. You have you had 375 00:21:36,840 --> 00:21:39,880 Speaker 7: the head of the SEIU. He was arrested a few 376 00:21:39,960 --> 00:21:42,600 Speaker 7: days ago, and Maxine Water goes to try to visit him. 377 00:21:42,640 --> 00:21:45,720 Speaker 7: I mean, it's kind of like, why there's something more 378 00:21:45,760 --> 00:21:48,280 Speaker 7: afoot and it feels like it feels. 379 00:21:47,960 --> 00:21:48,720 Speaker 8: Like a repeat. 380 00:21:49,000 --> 00:21:52,320 Speaker 7: These people repeat stuff over and over again. They're boring, 381 00:21:52,480 --> 00:21:55,920 Speaker 7: They're play there. You know, their their playbook is is 382 00:21:56,240 --> 00:21:59,800 Speaker 7: very predictable. Yet it seems to be effective. It constantly 383 00:22:00,920 --> 00:22:02,720 Speaker 7: and I think you're seeing it play out again. I 384 00:22:02,720 --> 00:22:04,359 Speaker 7: don't think Trump's going to go along with it like 385 00:22:04,400 --> 00:22:05,000 Speaker 7: he did before. 386 00:22:06,560 --> 00:22:08,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think he's certainly not going to go along 387 00:22:08,440 --> 00:22:12,000 Speaker 1: with it like he did before. It's also worth noting politically. 388 00:22:12,400 --> 00:22:15,119 Speaker 1: First of all, I think Trump wants the cities to 389 00:22:15,119 --> 00:22:17,840 Speaker 1: be safe. I was sharing all of the murder data. 390 00:22:18,600 --> 00:22:21,960 Speaker 1: The violent crime rate in this country has plummeted in 391 00:22:22,040 --> 00:22:24,320 Speaker 1: the first six months that Trump has been in office, 392 00:22:24,359 --> 00:22:27,800 Speaker 1: not getting much attention, but it has plummeted. Trump's also 393 00:22:27,880 --> 00:22:30,520 Speaker 1: not ever going to have to run for reelection and 394 00:22:30,640 --> 00:22:34,520 Speaker 1: the fact that Democrats, I really think took advantage of 395 00:22:34,560 --> 00:22:37,919 Speaker 1: the summer of twenty twenty to try and make Trump 396 00:22:38,080 --> 00:22:42,840 Speaker 1: look bad. I think those were orchestrated protests designed to 397 00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:48,080 Speaker 1: occur in an election year to damage Trump politically as 398 00:22:48,160 --> 00:22:50,679 Speaker 1: much as they could, And I think there was a 399 00:22:50,720 --> 00:22:52,480 Speaker 1: political calculus that is different. 400 00:22:52,520 --> 00:22:52,760 Speaker 4: Now. 401 00:22:53,119 --> 00:22:55,920 Speaker 1: Trump doesn't care what people think. He's just going to 402 00:22:56,040 --> 00:22:59,000 Speaker 1: do what he thinks is right. And in the wake 403 00:22:59,040 --> 00:23:03,359 Speaker 1: of surviving the or Pennsylvania assassination of July thirteenth, I 404 00:23:03,400 --> 00:23:07,600 Speaker 1: think Trump legitimately believes that he was kept on earth 405 00:23:07,680 --> 00:23:08,280 Speaker 1: for a reason. 406 00:23:09,440 --> 00:23:11,920 Speaker 2: I think that he believes that he was spared by God. 407 00:23:12,359 --> 00:23:13,040 Speaker 2: I really do. 408 00:23:13,680 --> 00:23:17,800 Speaker 1: And I think that he has decided that he is 409 00:23:17,840 --> 00:23:19,960 Speaker 1: going to do everything that he thinks is right, come 410 00:23:20,040 --> 00:23:22,320 Speaker 1: hell or high water, and he's not going to be 411 00:23:22,400 --> 00:23:24,639 Speaker 1: worried about what people. 412 00:23:24,320 --> 00:23:25,720 Speaker 2: Say against him. 413 00:23:26,000 --> 00:23:26,160 Speaker 9: Now. 414 00:23:26,200 --> 00:23:28,480 Speaker 1: He just landed on the South Lawn. Buck and I 415 00:23:28,520 --> 00:23:30,120 Speaker 1: are going to be in the Oval Office with him 416 00:23:30,119 --> 00:23:33,919 Speaker 1: on Thursday, have a conversation. Looking forward to that. But 417 00:23:34,000 --> 00:23:37,639 Speaker 1: this was Trump asked directly about Gavin Newsom. We played 418 00:23:37,640 --> 00:23:41,399 Speaker 1: the audio for you of Gavin Newsom begging Tom Holman 419 00:23:41,720 --> 00:23:44,439 Speaker 1: to arrest him. Trump was asked whether or not he 420 00:23:44,560 --> 00:23:48,520 Speaker 1: thinks the California Governor Gavin Newsom should be arrested for 421 00:23:48,600 --> 00:23:53,080 Speaker 1: impeding ice as Gavin Newsom encouraged the administration to do. 422 00:23:53,240 --> 00:23:59,800 Speaker 7: Listen, Gavin Newsom, he's daring Tom Holman become an arrectum. 423 00:24:00,200 --> 00:24:02,600 Speaker 7: Should he do it. I would do it. 424 00:24:02,520 --> 00:24:05,919 Speaker 2: Because I would gone. I think it's pains the Gavin likes. 425 00:24:05,760 --> 00:24:08,679 Speaker 1: The most of it, but I think it w everything. 426 00:24:08,160 --> 00:24:09,400 Speaker 2: He's done a terrible job. 427 00:24:11,280 --> 00:24:13,600 Speaker 4: Because I like gavenus and he's a nice guy, but. 428 00:24:13,560 --> 00:24:15,760 Speaker 2: He's grossly incompetent. Everybody knows. 429 00:24:16,040 --> 00:24:17,520 Speaker 8: All you have to do is look at the little 430 00:24:17,600 --> 00:24:18,600 Speaker 8: railroad he's building. 431 00:24:18,920 --> 00:24:21,000 Speaker 2: It's about a hundred times over budget. 432 00:24:21,520 --> 00:24:22,880 Speaker 8: We're putting a flag pole. 433 00:24:22,760 --> 00:24:24,320 Speaker 2: Over there under budget. 434 00:24:24,400 --> 00:24:25,160 Speaker 7: I always do an. 435 00:24:25,080 --> 00:24:27,520 Speaker 2: Under buddy, all right. 436 00:24:27,600 --> 00:24:30,400 Speaker 1: I know again, because you could hear the helicopter rotors 437 00:24:30,440 --> 00:24:31,439 Speaker 1: there in the background. 438 00:24:32,119 --> 00:24:32,560 Speaker 2: Would try. 439 00:24:32,800 --> 00:24:36,240 Speaker 1: I like Gavin Newsom, but he's grossly incompetent. He then 440 00:24:36,320 --> 00:24:39,159 Speaker 1: Trump is putting in a new flagpole. Uh, and he 441 00:24:39,240 --> 00:24:41,119 Speaker 1: says that they're gonna do it under budget, because he 442 00:24:41,160 --> 00:24:43,919 Speaker 1: always builds things under budget, whereas Gavin Newsom, and this 443 00:24:44,000 --> 00:24:47,720 Speaker 1: is true, one of the most ridiculous boondoggles probably in 444 00:24:47,760 --> 00:24:51,720 Speaker 1: the history of American politics, is currently underway with the 445 00:24:51,840 --> 00:24:55,199 Speaker 1: railroad that they are trying to build in California. I 446 00:24:55,240 --> 00:24:57,520 Speaker 1: know some of you are rolling your eyes about it. 447 00:24:57,520 --> 00:25:00,360 Speaker 1: It's way over budget. They basically built none of it. 448 00:25:00,720 --> 00:25:02,760 Speaker 1: And it's supposed to be high speed rail. I believe 449 00:25:02,800 --> 00:25:06,320 Speaker 1: it's supposed to connect California. I mean LA and San Francisco. 450 00:25:07,400 --> 00:25:09,720 Speaker 1: Team in New York, correct me if I'm wrong on 451 00:25:10,560 --> 00:25:13,760 Speaker 1: that being the destination that they are trying to do, 452 00:25:14,320 --> 00:25:17,400 Speaker 1: to connect LA and San Francisco via high speed rail, 453 00:25:18,000 --> 00:25:20,800 Speaker 1: and they've just been completely unable to do it. It 454 00:25:20,920 --> 00:25:26,440 Speaker 1: is gross incompetence and it has cost California taxpayers billions 455 00:25:26,480 --> 00:25:29,080 Speaker 1: of dollars already and they've got nothing to show for it. 456 00:25:30,240 --> 00:25:34,280 Speaker 1: And you know they made the decision. I know not 457 00:25:34,440 --> 00:25:38,159 Speaker 1: a lot about building railroad. It's not gonna stun you. 458 00:25:38,640 --> 00:25:42,040 Speaker 1: I'm not sitting around in my free time with my 459 00:25:42,520 --> 00:25:46,359 Speaker 1: railroad displays and my little conductor hat making all my 460 00:25:46,920 --> 00:25:51,560 Speaker 1: making all my railroads, and I've not studied the railway industry. 461 00:25:52,560 --> 00:25:55,960 Speaker 1: Seems like the easiest thing to do would have been 462 00:25:56,600 --> 00:26:02,600 Speaker 1: to run the railway alongside of the existing interstate, because 463 00:26:02,640 --> 00:26:06,200 Speaker 1: you've already got right of way, you've already created all 464 00:26:06,280 --> 00:26:10,200 Speaker 1: of the challenges associated with getting an actual interstate built. 465 00:26:11,200 --> 00:26:13,040 Speaker 1: I don't know why they made the decision not to 466 00:26:13,080 --> 00:26:16,920 Speaker 1: do that, but I would have just done that. Instead, 467 00:26:16,920 --> 00:26:22,640 Speaker 1: they're trying to build an entirely new railway network unconnected 468 00:26:22,880 --> 00:26:26,280 Speaker 1: to the existing interstates. They've had to take over so 469 00:26:26,400 --> 00:26:29,040 Speaker 1: much land, they've had to cut through so many farms, 470 00:26:29,600 --> 00:26:30,280 Speaker 1: and they haven't. 471 00:26:30,040 --> 00:26:31,200 Speaker 2: Even done anything with it yet. 472 00:26:32,440 --> 00:26:35,160 Speaker 1: So look, I think Gavin Newsom wants to be arrested 473 00:26:35,640 --> 00:26:37,760 Speaker 1: because he wants the attention he's going to run for 474 00:26:37,800 --> 00:26:40,720 Speaker 1: president in twenty twenty eight. He wants to make the 475 00:26:40,840 --> 00:26:43,720 Speaker 1: argument that Trump is an authoritarian dictator and if he'll 476 00:26:43,840 --> 00:26:47,880 Speaker 1: arrest the sitting governor of California, none of us are safe. 477 00:26:48,800 --> 00:26:52,640 Speaker 1: But if the sitting governor of California refuses to follow 478 00:26:52,720 --> 00:26:56,119 Speaker 1: federal law, as he is obligated to do under the 479 00:26:56,119 --> 00:27:00,879 Speaker 1: supremacy Clause of the Constitution, what should the president do? 480 00:27:03,040 --> 00:27:05,000 Speaker 2: I mean, I think it's a really. 481 00:27:04,880 --> 00:27:09,600 Speaker 1: Challenging question because Trump is actually acting to protect the 482 00:27:09,640 --> 00:27:12,560 Speaker 1: people of Los Angeles when their mayor and their governor 483 00:27:12,640 --> 00:27:15,960 Speaker 1: will not do it, but they are bragging about directly 484 00:27:16,000 --> 00:27:21,920 Speaker 1: defying federal law. Well, look, the entire concept of our 485 00:27:22,000 --> 00:27:28,520 Speaker 1: constitution is predicated on federal overruling state when there is 486 00:27:28,560 --> 00:27:31,879 Speaker 1: a conflict on who has the who has the power 487 00:27:32,000 --> 00:27:34,440 Speaker 1: now on things that are not giving you a little 488 00:27:34,440 --> 00:27:37,119 Speaker 1: bit of a constitutional law, lesson going back in time 489 00:27:37,640 --> 00:27:42,240 Speaker 1: on things that are uncertain. The whole concept of federalism is, Hey, 490 00:27:42,760 --> 00:27:45,399 Speaker 1: we're going to allow the states to be laboratories and 491 00:27:45,440 --> 00:27:48,800 Speaker 1: do their own research and do their own projects, and 492 00:27:49,040 --> 00:27:51,360 Speaker 1: the best decisions by the states, we would hope would 493 00:27:51,359 --> 00:27:55,040 Speaker 1: then spread. So I believe very much in federalism. But 494 00:27:55,080 --> 00:27:58,760 Speaker 1: the courts have clearly said that each state can't have 495 00:27:58,920 --> 00:28:03,480 Speaker 1: its own immigration policy, and each state can't have its 496 00:28:03,560 --> 00:28:08,560 Speaker 1: own city and state immigration policies. You have to have 497 00:28:08,680 --> 00:28:10,800 Speaker 1: federal immigration law. And we talked about it a lot 498 00:28:10,800 --> 00:28:13,680 Speaker 1: on the program because sometimes it was very frustrating to 499 00:28:13,760 --> 00:28:16,320 Speaker 1: many of you in Texas, and even the governor of 500 00:28:16,320 --> 00:28:19,639 Speaker 1: Texas himself, Greg Abbott, because he would say, how in 501 00:28:19,680 --> 00:28:24,240 Speaker 1: the world am I not allowed to protect my state 502 00:28:25,000 --> 00:28:29,320 Speaker 1: and my cities from Biden's open border policies? And there 503 00:28:29,320 --> 00:28:31,239 Speaker 1: were a lot of different court decisions. I came on 504 00:28:31,240 --> 00:28:33,399 Speaker 1: this program, I said, you're not gonna like it, you know, 505 00:28:33,440 --> 00:28:36,680 Speaker 1: not gonna like it that the courts are saying, Hey, 506 00:28:36,760 --> 00:28:40,640 Speaker 1: it's the province of the president to determine immigration policy. 507 00:28:40,680 --> 00:28:45,400 Speaker 1: But you clearly can't have fifty different immigration policies. We 508 00:28:45,480 --> 00:28:49,960 Speaker 1: have to have federal immigration policy. And Trump is saying 509 00:28:50,080 --> 00:28:55,720 Speaker 1: I'm implementing federal immigration policy. City and state government should 510 00:28:55,720 --> 00:29:02,480 Speaker 1: not have the opportunity to obfuscate to oppose the federal 511 00:29:02,520 --> 00:29:05,640 Speaker 1: government from implementing federal immigration law. I don't think this 512 00:29:05,680 --> 00:29:09,920 Speaker 1: is a very challenging situation. So what do you do 513 00:29:10,240 --> 00:29:12,240 Speaker 1: if they will not allow that to happen. I think 514 00:29:12,280 --> 00:29:17,520 Speaker 1: it's a super challenging position politically, especially when the governor 515 00:29:17,520 --> 00:29:21,240 Speaker 1: of California is daring you to arrest him for violating 516 00:29:21,280 --> 00:29:24,160 Speaker 1: the law. The law's pretty clear. I think Gavin Newsom 517 00:29:24,240 --> 00:29:26,640 Speaker 1: is in the wrong. Now, you got to work through 518 00:29:26,680 --> 00:29:29,480 Speaker 1: your way through the California courts. First, do you think 519 00:29:29,600 --> 00:29:33,120 Speaker 1: there's any federal district court judges in California that are 520 00:29:33,160 --> 00:29:35,120 Speaker 1: going to say, you know what, Gavin Newsom has violated 521 00:29:35,160 --> 00:29:35,760 Speaker 1: federal law? 522 00:29:36,680 --> 00:29:37,240 Speaker 2: Probably not. 523 00:29:38,120 --> 00:29:43,920 Speaker 1: Is the Circuit court that governs California, Washington, and Oregon 524 00:29:44,200 --> 00:29:46,960 Speaker 1: Ninth Circuit. Are they going to say that California doesn't 525 00:29:47,000 --> 00:29:49,760 Speaker 1: have the right to defy federal immigration law. 526 00:29:49,840 --> 00:29:52,520 Speaker 2: Probably not. So it's going to have to be expedited 527 00:29:52,520 --> 00:29:53,560 Speaker 2: all the way up to the. 528 00:29:53,560 --> 00:29:56,560 Speaker 1: Supreme Court, potentially depending on who the judges are that 529 00:29:56,720 --> 00:30:00,160 Speaker 1: end up with cases like these. And given and that 530 00:30:00,280 --> 00:30:03,240 Speaker 1: the primary opposition to Trump two point zero has been 531 00:30:03,760 --> 00:30:06,440 Speaker 1: government in nature, I think you just have to be 532 00:30:06,520 --> 00:30:11,160 Speaker 1: careful about the battles that you're undertaking in the court system. 533 00:30:11,400 --> 00:30:13,240 Speaker 1: And I think California, I would expect, if it hasn't 534 00:30:13,240 --> 00:30:16,040 Speaker 1: already happened, I would expect that California is going to 535 00:30:16,080 --> 00:30:18,760 Speaker 1: try to sue to argue that Trump doesn't have the 536 00:30:18,800 --> 00:30:21,480 Speaker 1: authority to call in the National Guard into Los Angeles. 537 00:30:22,080 --> 00:30:25,960 Speaker 1: But he does clearly because again of the supremacy clause, 538 00:30:25,960 --> 00:30:29,520 Speaker 1: which gives the federal government the power over state. Remember, 539 00:30:29,600 --> 00:30:32,640 Speaker 1: this wouldn't be complicated. And there's a reason why things 540 00:30:32,680 --> 00:30:36,240 Speaker 1: like this aren't happening in red states because I guarantee 541 00:30:36,280 --> 00:30:40,600 Speaker 1: you if the state of Florida had a protest like 542 00:30:40,640 --> 00:30:43,480 Speaker 1: this going on, first of all, Governor Ron DeSantis would 543 00:30:43,480 --> 00:30:46,360 Speaker 1: take care of it. Red state governors would not allow 544 00:30:46,400 --> 00:30:49,400 Speaker 1: this to happen. So that's point one point two. If 545 00:30:49,400 --> 00:30:53,920 Speaker 1: they did need help, they would ask for it. But crazily, 546 00:30:54,000 --> 00:30:57,560 Speaker 1: what are you supposed to do If the mayor of 547 00:30:57,760 --> 00:31:00,640 Speaker 1: Los Angeles, Karen Bass is okay with the city burning, 548 00:31:01,320 --> 00:31:04,440 Speaker 1: if the governor is what about Chicago? Do you feel 549 00:31:04,480 --> 00:31:07,440 Speaker 1: like the mayor of Chicago, Brandon Johnson's gonna stop the 550 00:31:07,480 --> 00:31:08,720 Speaker 1: city of Chicago from burning? 551 00:31:08,760 --> 00:31:09,120 Speaker 2: I don't. 552 00:31:09,840 --> 00:31:13,160 Speaker 1: Do you feel like Mayor Wu in Boston's gonna stop 553 00:31:13,200 --> 00:31:14,000 Speaker 1: Boston from burning? 554 00:31:14,040 --> 00:31:14,440 Speaker 2: I don't. 555 00:31:14,960 --> 00:31:17,160 Speaker 1: Maybe Eric Adams would do it right now in New 556 00:31:17,280 --> 00:31:20,520 Speaker 1: York City, maybe he would. But a lot of these 557 00:31:20,560 --> 00:31:24,320 Speaker 1: big cities in blue states with blue state governors and 558 00:31:24,360 --> 00:31:27,800 Speaker 1: blue state mayors, they're not. They just think this is 559 00:31:27,800 --> 00:31:31,240 Speaker 1: the price that has to be paid lighting a city 560 00:31:31,240 --> 00:31:31,600 Speaker 1: on fire. 561 00:31:31,720 --> 00:31:32,640 Speaker 2: Small price to pay. 562 00:31:33,320 --> 00:31:35,040 Speaker 1: We'll take your calls I want to hear from police 563 00:31:35,040 --> 00:31:38,880 Speaker 1: should there be deadly force able to respond.

Today we are breaking down everything going 583 00:32:49,840 --> 00:32:54,200 Speaker 1: on in the world, in particular Los Angeles where, unfortunately, 584 00:32:54,560 --> 00:32:57,920 Speaker 1: like many of you, I was watching last night as 585 00:32:58,360 --> 00:33:03,640 Speaker 1: much of the pro tests turned into violence, and I 586 00:33:03,680 --> 00:33:06,080 Speaker 1: want to hit a bunch of different calls out there. 587 00:33:06,720 --> 00:33:10,080 Speaker 1: And again I'm referring to video that I shared. You 588 00:33:10,080 --> 00:33:12,520 Speaker 1: can go see it is just to kind of describe 589 00:33:12,560 --> 00:33:14,040 Speaker 1: it for those of you who have not seen it. 590 00:33:14,520 --> 00:33:19,800 Speaker 1: From a highway overpass, police are trapped on the underpass. 591 00:33:20,200 --> 00:33:23,280 Speaker 1: They are trying to protect their vehicles underneath so they 592 00:33:23,320 --> 00:33:26,560 Speaker 1: can't be reached, but there is not enough space and 593 00:33:26,640 --> 00:33:30,840 Speaker 1: so the police are having rockets, rocks thrown at them, 594 00:33:31,240 --> 00:33:34,200 Speaker 1: and then there are molotov cocktails also being thrown that 595 00:33:34,360 --> 00:33:39,040 Speaker 1: could and did catch their police vehicles on fire. To me, 596 00:33:39,360 --> 00:33:43,280 Speaker 1: it seems like a clear situation where use of force 597 00:33:43,440 --> 00:33:48,280 Speaker 1: that is violent, potentially death causing force could be justified. 598 00:33:48,600 --> 00:33:50,400 Speaker 1: And I'm asking for people out there that have had 599 00:33:50,440 --> 00:33:53,400 Speaker 1: experience in law enforcement. You can also respond on my 600 00:33:53,520 --> 00:33:56,080 Speaker 1: Twitter account, as I'm sure many of you will and 601 00:33:56,240 --> 00:34:01,840 Speaker 1: already are. Jane in California, former law enforcement and former 602 00:34:01,960 --> 00:34:05,400 Speaker 1: active duty military. When you see what was happening to 603 00:34:05,480 --> 00:34:08,880 Speaker 1: the LA police last night as a part of these riots, 604 00:34:09,200 --> 00:34:12,560 Speaker 1: should they be able to defend themselves? Is violent force 605 00:34:12,760 --> 00:34:16,400 Speaker 1: lethal force potentially warranted based on what you've. 606 00:34:16,239 --> 00:34:22,880 Speaker 8: Seen, Absolutely, sir, deadly force can be met with deadly force, 607 00:34:23,480 --> 00:34:29,000 Speaker 8: And there is no no good leader should place his 608 00:34:29,239 --> 00:34:34,560 Speaker 8: people in harm's way without their capacity to defend themselves. 609 00:34:34,680 --> 00:34:38,040 Speaker 8: That is actually criminal. So people need to be ready 610 00:34:38,080 --> 00:34:42,520 Speaker 8: for some consequences because I hail from Latin America. I mean, 611 00:34:42,520 --> 00:34:46,200 Speaker 8: my family is from Latin America. You know, bls know 612 00:34:46,239 --> 00:34:48,200 Speaker 8: what I can do the whole conversation and finish I want. 613 00:34:48,400 --> 00:34:51,640 Speaker 8: But every self respecting Mexican that I know is embarrassed 614 00:34:51,680 --> 00:34:55,160 Speaker 8: by this. This is some drama show that's being put 615 00:34:55,200 --> 00:34:58,759 Speaker 8: on by somebody to try and elicit something, and good 616 00:34:58,800 --> 00:35:00,719 Speaker 8: people are going to get hurt. So this is the 617 00:35:01,800 --> 00:35:05,160 Speaker 8: nobody who is you know with has a rational mind 618 00:35:05,200 --> 00:35:08,160 Speaker 8: needs to be going down there. This is this is 619 00:35:08,320 --> 00:35:11,520 Speaker 8: really bad and it's dangerous. So this is not a protest. 620 00:35:11,600 --> 00:35:14,600 Speaker 8: It is a riot, So no need for a counter protest. 621 00:35:14,800 --> 00:35:17,480 Speaker 8: Avoid those areas. Let the cops do their job. 622 00:35:17,560 --> 00:35:18,759 Speaker 9: I was also National Guard. 623 00:35:18,800 --> 00:35:20,320 Speaker 8: Let the National Guard do they're dump and I was 624 00:35:20,400 --> 00:35:23,040 Speaker 8: active duty for five years twenty years law enforcement. 625 00:35:23,280 --> 00:35:23,879 Speaker 2: So thank you. 626 00:35:24,040 --> 00:35:26,560 Speaker 9: This is a dangerous situation and no doubt. 627 00:35:26,320 --> 00:35:29,240 Speaker 1: To you that police would be justified in using violent 628 00:35:29,320 --> 00:35:31,239 Speaker 1: force to respond based on what you've seen. 629 00:35:32,480 --> 00:35:35,439 Speaker 8: Absolutely, you are one hundred percent correct. And it moves 630 00:35:35,440 --> 00:35:38,320 Speaker 8: from this to another thing. You mentioned all the dangers 631 00:35:38,360 --> 00:35:40,680 Speaker 8: that California is in as you move from this little 632 00:35:40,719 --> 00:35:45,600 Speaker 8: game to something else, to something else. California is is 633 00:35:45,680 --> 00:35:48,080 Speaker 8: in danger, so people stay away from that. Let the 634 00:35:48,080 --> 00:35:51,600 Speaker 8: people do their job, and leaders let their people do 635 00:35:51,719 --> 00:35:53,120 Speaker 8: their job swiftly and. 636 00:35:53,080 --> 00:35:53,840 Speaker 2: Get this over with. 637 00:35:54,239 --> 00:35:58,320 Speaker 1: Thank you very much, very fast. Bill in Savannah, Georgia, 638 00:35:58,400 --> 00:36:01,600 Speaker 1: retired law enforcement and doubt based on what you've seen, 639 00:36:01,640 --> 00:36:03,560 Speaker 1: that police are entitled to defend themselves. 640 00:36:05,520 --> 00:36:09,160 Speaker 9: No, absolutely entire to defend themselves.
