1 00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:02,960 Speaker 1: All right, welcome into the second hour of Clay and Buck, 2 00:00:03,440 --> 00:00:07,800 Speaker 1: and let's talk about this. We had President Trump hosting 3 00:00:08,039 --> 00:00:15,440 Speaker 1: the Families of Crime Victims Angel Families at the White House. Yes, 4 00:00:15,720 --> 00:00:20,440 Speaker 1: I'm sorry this morning the way this is yesterday or today. 5 00:00:20,520 --> 00:00:24,640 Speaker 1: I think it was this morning he participated in. Yeah, 6 00:00:24,640 --> 00:00:26,840 Speaker 1: it was this morning, that's right, and an Angel Families 7 00:00:26,840 --> 00:00:31,200 Speaker 1: Remembering ceremony in the East Room. This event honored Angel families, 8 00:00:31,240 --> 00:00:34,479 Speaker 1: relatives of individuals killed or harmed in crimes allegedly committed 9 00:00:35,080 --> 00:00:39,120 Speaker 1: by Oh gosh. When you read the official description of this, 10 00:00:39,200 --> 00:00:42,960 Speaker 1: as I was just doing, they go to undocumented immigrants 11 00:00:43,040 --> 00:00:45,600 Speaker 1: often referred to as legal aliens. No, referred to as 12 00:00:45,680 --> 00:00:49,559 Speaker 1: legal aliens, because that is the proper legal term. This is. 13 00:00:49,640 --> 00:00:52,199 Speaker 1: I was actually not going to think of this as 14 00:00:52,200 --> 00:00:56,360 Speaker 1: an opportunity to sell manufacturing delusion copies. But on the 15 00:00:56,400 --> 00:00:59,800 Speaker 1: propaganda section, there's a whole all the stuffbut immigration and 16 00:00:59,840 --> 00:01:04,520 Speaker 1: the change in our language that has been in the 17 00:01:04,600 --> 00:01:11,880 Speaker 1: service of pushing for illegal immigration has been profound. And 18 00:01:11,920 --> 00:01:17,200 Speaker 1: you'll notice it went from illegal alien to illegal immigrants, 19 00:01:17,800 --> 00:01:25,680 Speaker 1: to undocumented immigrants to undocumented to now I don't know, 20 00:01:25,880 --> 00:01:29,440 Speaker 1: like non citizens soon to be American or something. So 21 00:01:30,240 --> 00:01:34,760 Speaker 1: they do this on purpose. Obviously, they change the words 22 00:01:34,760 --> 00:01:38,920 Speaker 1: that are used, so that you have essentially seeded ground 23 00:01:38,920 --> 00:01:42,200 Speaker 1: of the debate before you've even had it. If you're undocumented, well, 24 00:01:42,200 --> 00:01:45,280 Speaker 1: how do you fix that. We'll get them the documents. Right, 25 00:01:45,280 --> 00:01:47,280 Speaker 1: that's the way you If you're undocumented, how do you 26 00:01:47,280 --> 00:01:50,040 Speaker 1: fix it? Get them documents. It shouldn't be too hard. 27 00:01:50,880 --> 00:01:54,480 Speaker 1: You see the way that this works, and that's always 28 00:01:54,520 --> 00:01:58,200 Speaker 1: been the plan. The American people have been put through 29 00:01:59,760 --> 00:02:04,440 Speaker 1: one of the most sustained campaigns of lies around immigration 30 00:02:05,600 --> 00:02:09,840 Speaker 1: on any major policy issue in this country. It's up 31 00:02:09,840 --> 00:02:15,720 Speaker 1: there with whatever else you think. The Democrat left has 32 00:02:16,280 --> 00:02:23,799 Speaker 1: been spreading untruth mistruths about the Democrat media and really 33 00:02:23,919 --> 00:02:27,560 Speaker 1: unfortunately a lot of Republicans too. We were led to 34 00:02:27,560 --> 00:02:31,359 Speaker 1: believe so many things, even though, for example, I think 35 00:02:31,400 --> 00:02:33,920 Speaker 1: it was John McCain was a sponsor of the Secure 36 00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:36,600 Speaker 1: Fences Act, and you go back to the early two thousands, 37 00:02:36,600 --> 00:02:40,399 Speaker 1: there were all these there were all these moments where 38 00:02:40,440 --> 00:02:42,720 Speaker 1: Republicans would say that they were going to build the 39 00:02:42,840 --> 00:02:46,160 Speaker 1: build the dang fence and things like that. But the 40 00:02:46,200 --> 00:02:50,720 Speaker 1: Bush administration was terrible on this stuff. The Obama administration 41 00:02:51,200 --> 00:02:55,200 Speaker 1: was was very bad. The Biden administration. That was in 42 00:02:55,240 --> 00:02:59,120 Speaker 1: a class by itself. The Biden administration just decided, you 43 00:02:59,160 --> 00:03:02,720 Speaker 1: know what, we've gotten to a critical mass here of 44 00:03:02,960 --> 00:03:06,400 Speaker 1: illegals coming into the country where we might as well 45 00:03:06,480 --> 00:03:10,079 Speaker 1: just just sort of take the gloves off and just 46 00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:12,280 Speaker 1: let it rip. Just let them all in. Just let 47 00:03:12,360 --> 00:03:14,640 Speaker 1: them all in. Everybody wants to come in. And remember 48 00:03:14,639 --> 00:03:18,359 Speaker 1: there were videos of illegals coming to our border and 49 00:03:18,400 --> 00:03:20,840 Speaker 1: the occasional journalist would say, Hey, what are you doing here? 50 00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:24,040 Speaker 1: And they would say, like, I'm here because Biden is 51 00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:27,080 Speaker 1: going to let me stay. That really happened. I forget 52 00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:31,440 Speaker 1: what exact words were used, but that really happened. I 53 00:03:31,440 --> 00:03:34,280 Speaker 1: was speaking of Biden. We actually the team did pull 54 00:03:34,320 --> 00:03:39,520 Speaker 1: this because I brought it up before. What did Biden 55 00:03:39,680 --> 00:03:45,200 Speaker 1: say about Obama? Here we go? This is twenty eight 56 00:03:45,320 --> 00:03:48,120 Speaker 1: is a flashback to two thousand and seven. Play twenty 57 00:03:48,160 --> 00:03:51,560 Speaker 1: eight for me. Oh, you got the first sort of 58 00:03:52,320 --> 00:03:57,880 Speaker 1: maze stream African America who is articulate and bright and 59 00:04:03,040 --> 00:04:10,800 Speaker 1: had cut out there? Did he say clean? Because that's there? 60 00:04:12,240 --> 00:04:18,120 Speaker 1: There you go? Yeah, that's a strange thing to say. 61 00:04:18,360 --> 00:04:21,359 Speaker 1: Didn't Biden end up being his VP? This is what 62 00:04:21,360 --> 00:04:25,200 Speaker 1: I'm saying Democrats, this is part of the the advantage, 63 00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:29,839 Speaker 1: part of the privileged package of being a Democrat in politics, 64 00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:33,920 Speaker 1: or just somebody who the Democrat Party finds useful. That's 65 00:04:33,920 --> 00:04:35,880 Speaker 1: really what it is. It's not about loyalty, it's not 66 00:04:35,920 --> 00:04:38,560 Speaker 1: about what you stand for. It are you useful to 67 00:04:38,760 --> 00:04:40,800 Speaker 1: the power and the interest of the Democrat Party. If 68 00:04:40,839 --> 00:04:44,760 Speaker 1: the answers yes, racism, it doesn't, It doesn't matter, and 69 00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:47,320 Speaker 1: that that doesn't affect you, really because there's always a 70 00:04:47,360 --> 00:04:49,800 Speaker 1: chance for you to beg forgiveness later or to do 71 00:04:49,920 --> 00:04:53,000 Speaker 1: more for the oppressed groups that you've offended, or something 72 00:04:53,080 --> 00:04:58,000 Speaker 1: like that. No, Really, racism, predominantly in political discourse in 73 00:04:58,040 --> 00:05:01,599 Speaker 1: this country in the last well few decades at least, 74 00:05:01,800 --> 00:05:05,520 Speaker 1: is just something that you particularly try to weaponize in 75 00:05:05,600 --> 00:05:08,440 Speaker 1: bad faith against Republicans to scare them and shut them 76 00:05:08,440 --> 00:05:11,400 Speaker 1: down and stop them from doing things that would be 77 00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:16,400 Speaker 1: good policy, including and disproportionally for the black community in 78 00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:20,360 Speaker 1: this country, things like safer streets, more support for cops, 79 00:05:20,839 --> 00:05:23,520 Speaker 1: more enforcement of the law. You know, you've got the 80 00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:26,599 Speaker 1: left saying that that stuff is racist. Meanwhile, it's not 81 00:05:26,760 --> 00:05:30,520 Speaker 1: racist and actually really does in major cities, for example, 82 00:05:30,560 --> 00:05:34,240 Speaker 1: help black people more than anybody else. So there's all 83 00:05:34,279 --> 00:05:36,880 Speaker 1: that happening in the background here of this discussion on 84 00:05:36,920 --> 00:05:42,360 Speaker 1: immigration and Trump. Trump decided, you know, one thing I've 85 00:05:42,360 --> 00:05:44,440 Speaker 1: been saying that there's all these lies around this one 86 00:05:44,520 --> 00:05:45,920 Speaker 1: one of the big lies, or one of the things 87 00:05:45,920 --> 00:05:47,479 Speaker 1: that they will do, I should say. Part of the 88 00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:52,159 Speaker 1: propaganda around immigration has been, you know, we have to 89 00:05:53,360 --> 00:05:55,799 Speaker 1: this is the founder of the next founder of Google. 90 00:05:56,200 --> 00:05:58,200 Speaker 1: Or they do the jobs Americans won't do, or they're 91 00:05:58,240 --> 00:06:01,000 Speaker 1: more law abiding than Americans are. A big part of 92 00:06:01,040 --> 00:06:06,719 Speaker 1: immigration discourse has been they are better than us illegals. 93 00:06:06,800 --> 00:06:09,920 Speaker 1: I'm not talking about legal migrants. I'm talking about illegal migrants, 94 00:06:10,200 --> 00:06:11,800 Speaker 1: people who just come here and break the law. They're 95 00:06:11,800 --> 00:06:14,479 Speaker 1: better than the Americans who are actually here. Which is 96 00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:16,920 Speaker 1: quite a thing to say for an American and especially 97 00:06:16,960 --> 00:06:19,960 Speaker 1: an American politician, but that was very common. Doing the 98 00:06:20,040 --> 00:06:25,839 Speaker 1: jobs Americans won't do. Yeah, not for not. If the 99 00:06:25,920 --> 00:06:30,640 Speaker 1: choice is being here or being in Nicaragua, a lot 100 00:06:30,680 --> 00:06:32,240 Speaker 1: of people would rather be here, even if they're being 101 00:06:32,279 --> 00:06:36,599 Speaker 1: paid below market wages. This is a better country. That's 102 00:06:35,480 --> 00:06:40,360 Speaker 1: not some huge mystery. Doesn't go to the inherent work 103 00:06:40,440 --> 00:06:42,599 Speaker 1: ethic of any group of people. One way or the other. 104 00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:45,640 Speaker 1: But the other part of this is I used to 105 00:06:45,680 --> 00:06:47,719 Speaker 1: say this when I would debate people years ago. This 106 00:06:47,720 --> 00:06:49,320 Speaker 1: has been a big issue for me for a long time, 107 00:06:49,360 --> 00:06:52,960 Speaker 1: certainly for the last really well really since Trump came 108 00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:58,960 Speaker 1: into office, since twenty sixteen, and since Ann Coulter's excellent 109 00:06:59,520 --> 00:07:05,200 Speaker 1: audios America was published, very very good book. And you know, 110 00:07:05,560 --> 00:07:08,760 Speaker 1: you see the way that the immigration story was laid 111 00:07:08,760 --> 00:07:12,760 Speaker 1: out for so many people in this country, and it 112 00:07:12,840 --> 00:07:15,080 Speaker 1: was just a big line. It wasn't true. And one 113 00:07:15,120 --> 00:07:16,280 Speaker 1: of the things that I would ask people when I 114 00:07:16,280 --> 00:07:18,720 Speaker 1: would debate them on this, especially at CNN and places 115 00:07:18,760 --> 00:07:23,880 Speaker 1: like that, is is there any downside to illegal immigration? 116 00:07:24,680 --> 00:07:26,960 Speaker 1: Because if you ask somebody from like the Cato Institute, 117 00:07:26,960 --> 00:07:30,960 Speaker 1: which is an open borders shill lunatic factory, if you 118 00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:36,200 Speaker 1: ask people from places like this, libertarians, you know, far left, 119 00:07:36,280 --> 00:07:40,160 Speaker 1: bleeding heart types, any and all of the above, they 120 00:07:40,200 --> 00:07:42,200 Speaker 1: never have an answer for you. And so then I 121 00:07:42,240 --> 00:07:45,160 Speaker 1: always say that if there's no downside to illegal immigration, 122 00:07:46,040 --> 00:07:48,240 Speaker 1: why don't we just be go open borders? Say oh, oh, 123 00:07:48,280 --> 00:07:51,920 Speaker 1: we can't do that. Why you won't identify a downside? 124 00:07:52,240 --> 00:07:54,840 Speaker 1: You won't tell me what the trade off is? Ah, well, 125 00:07:55,760 --> 00:07:57,440 Speaker 1: Trump will tell you what the trade off is. One 126 00:07:57,440 --> 00:07:59,200 Speaker 1: of the trade offs is that there are thousands and 127 00:07:59,240 --> 00:08:01,760 Speaker 1: thousands of people in this country who aren't supposed to 128 00:08:01,840 --> 00:08:06,280 Speaker 1: be here, who kill, people, who rape, people who steal, 129 00:08:06,760 --> 00:08:09,680 Speaker 1: who commit armed robberies, all the above, all these kinds 130 00:08:09,680 --> 00:08:13,960 Speaker 1: of things. And this is Trump here at the at 131 00:08:13,960 --> 00:08:17,320 Speaker 1: the ceremony honoring these families. This has cut one from 132 00:08:17,360 --> 00:08:19,200 Speaker 1: this morning for the Angel families. Play it. 133 00:08:19,480 --> 00:08:21,560 Speaker 2: We're willing to tell the story and that I don't 134 00:08:21,560 --> 00:08:23,880 Speaker 2: know why the news doesn't want to hear it. The 135 00:08:23,920 --> 00:08:25,920 Speaker 2: Democrats don't want to hear it, the radical left, they 136 00:08:25,920 --> 00:08:27,880 Speaker 2: don't want to hear it. What's not to hear We 137 00:08:27,920 --> 00:08:31,360 Speaker 2: want to stop murderers and criminals from coming into our country, 138 00:08:31,680 --> 00:08:35,000 Speaker 2: or what's the mayor of Minneapolis. I watch these people 139 00:08:35,040 --> 00:08:38,120 Speaker 2: saying we want to protect murderers. I don't get there's 140 00:08:38,120 --> 00:08:41,040 Speaker 2: something sick. They're sick. You can't have a country like that. 141 00:08:41,200 --> 00:08:44,160 Speaker 2: So we appreciate the bravery of everybody in this room. 142 00:08:44,240 --> 00:08:52,320 Speaker 1: Actually, again, this is something that the media overall will 143 00:08:52,360 --> 00:08:55,320 Speaker 1: not tell you about it. This is the other side 144 00:08:55,600 --> 00:08:59,400 Speaker 1: of you know, they love to run these stories, particularly 145 00:08:59,400 --> 00:09:04,480 Speaker 1: if it's uh. They'll run some story about a dreamer. 146 00:09:04,559 --> 00:09:06,320 Speaker 1: They used to You notice the dreamer thing has fallen 147 00:09:06,360 --> 00:09:08,640 Speaker 1: away a little bit, but it'd says some dreamers like 148 00:09:08,679 --> 00:09:12,800 Speaker 1: this dreamer is a valedictorian. Isn't this amazing? You know, 149 00:09:12,880 --> 00:09:15,880 Speaker 1: dreamer being somebody who allegedly was brought here when they 150 00:09:15,880 --> 00:09:20,120 Speaker 1: were still a minor by their parents. And as I 151 00:09:20,160 --> 00:09:21,920 Speaker 1: have to note, and this sounds kind of harsh to 152 00:09:21,920 --> 00:09:24,920 Speaker 1: some people, but it's true. You know, if if my 153 00:09:25,559 --> 00:09:28,640 Speaker 1: if dad steals a million dollars from a bank and 154 00:09:28,679 --> 00:09:31,720 Speaker 1: gives it to me to fund my uh, you know, 155 00:09:31,840 --> 00:09:35,360 Speaker 1: my laboratory where I'm gonna do great things for researching 156 00:09:35,720 --> 00:09:38,920 Speaker 1: different medicines. It's still stolen money. You're not supposed to 157 00:09:38,920 --> 00:09:42,520 Speaker 1: benefit from criminal activity. And entering the country illegally is 158 00:09:42,559 --> 00:09:46,199 Speaker 1: in fact illegal. But you would always hear these stories 159 00:09:46,240 --> 00:09:49,400 Speaker 1: about the valedictorian. You'd never hear the story about the 160 00:09:49,640 --> 00:09:53,520 Speaker 1: illegal who had been arrested ten times and drunk driving 161 00:09:53,640 --> 00:09:55,960 Speaker 1: five times and then finally, you know, killed the family 162 00:09:56,000 --> 00:09:59,040 Speaker 1: of three on the highway. Media won't tell that story. 163 00:09:59,080 --> 00:10:03,280 Speaker 1: In fact, if anything, they'll they'll do the it's such 164 00:10:03,280 --> 00:10:06,280 Speaker 1: and such a you know, it's a Michigan man or 165 00:10:06,320 --> 00:10:11,520 Speaker 1: a or a Florida man or a whatever, kills three 166 00:10:11,559 --> 00:10:13,640 Speaker 1: people in a car accident. Well, actually, this guy is 167 00:10:13,679 --> 00:10:17,520 Speaker 1: not an American at all. He's you know, from some 168 00:10:17,679 --> 00:10:20,920 Speaker 1: third world country and has been in this country nothing 169 00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:23,160 Speaker 1: but a drain on our resource, isn't breaking our laws 170 00:10:23,160 --> 00:10:27,520 Speaker 1: and a giant net negative for us. Trump spoke about 171 00:10:27,760 --> 00:10:30,400 Speaker 1: how much also the how much pain there has been 172 00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:34,080 Speaker 1: as a result of the as a result of some 173 00:10:34,120 --> 00:10:35,800 Speaker 1: of these illegals, the things that they've done. This is 174 00:10:35,840 --> 00:10:38,800 Speaker 1: cut too or he just says to these angel families, Look, 175 00:10:38,840 --> 00:10:41,640 Speaker 1: your loss is infinite, and I'm very sorry, very sorry 176 00:10:41,679 --> 00:10:42,640 Speaker 1: for what's happened. Plate two. 177 00:10:43,040 --> 00:10:46,280 Speaker 3: Everyone in this room not only suffered an infinite loss. 178 00:10:46,320 --> 00:10:50,079 Speaker 3: There were the victims of politicians who put the comfort 179 00:10:50,080 --> 00:10:53,360 Speaker 3: of foreign criminals before the safety of American citizens and 180 00:10:53,440 --> 00:10:58,720 Speaker 3: American patriots. Their stories were censored and suppressed like maybe 181 00:10:59,000 --> 00:11:02,559 Speaker 3: almost never before, so that the politicians could open our 182 00:11:02,600 --> 00:11:05,800 Speaker 3: borders and allow our nation to be invaded. If we 183 00:11:05,840 --> 00:11:08,800 Speaker 3: didn't win the election, a nation would right now be destroyed. 184 00:11:11,559 --> 00:11:16,880 Speaker 1: Let's just take that last part for a second. If Biden, well, 185 00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:19,000 Speaker 1: in this case, it would have been Kamala, right, If 186 00:11:19,040 --> 00:11:24,520 Speaker 1: Kamala had won the election, we would have gone back 187 00:11:24,559 --> 00:11:27,280 Speaker 1: to the posture. Remember, they would have told us it's 188 00:11:27,320 --> 00:11:30,840 Speaker 1: impossible to secure the border, which was always a lie, 189 00:11:31,360 --> 00:11:36,080 Speaker 1: a lie that Trump has now exposed once and for all. 190 00:11:36,120 --> 00:11:39,079 Speaker 1: But they would have told us it's impossible to secure 191 00:11:39,080 --> 00:11:40,800 Speaker 1: the border, and we would have had millions and millions 192 00:11:40,800 --> 00:11:46,360 Speaker 1: of more people coming into the country and staying here 193 00:11:46,400 --> 00:11:51,840 Speaker 1: and availing themselves of all kinds of benefits and really 194 00:11:51,920 --> 00:11:55,320 Speaker 1: just taking from the American people. I mean, this is 195 00:11:55,360 --> 00:11:58,680 Speaker 1: the part of it that was a wake up call 196 00:11:58,760 --> 00:12:01,760 Speaker 1: for so many. I think was when, and give Texas 197 00:12:01,760 --> 00:12:04,040 Speaker 1: Governor Greg Abbott credit, when he just started saying, fine, 198 00:12:04,080 --> 00:12:05,560 Speaker 1: we're just going to bust these illegals to where they 199 00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:07,679 Speaker 1: want to go. We'll send them to New York, We'll 200 00:12:07,679 --> 00:12:10,320 Speaker 1: send them to Chicago, and then you see what happens 201 00:12:10,360 --> 00:12:14,840 Speaker 1: in these cities. They're not coming here because because they're 202 00:12:14,840 --> 00:12:18,800 Speaker 1: about to start the next great tech company. They're coming 203 00:12:18,840 --> 00:12:22,400 Speaker 1: here because they think that there's a free lunch. In 204 00:12:22,440 --> 00:12:24,679 Speaker 1: many cases, this is what these illegals are doing. If 205 00:12:24,679 --> 00:12:26,480 Speaker 1: they were coming here because they thought that they could 206 00:12:26,520 --> 00:12:30,920 Speaker 1: contribute right away, you'd think the legal immigration process might 207 00:12:30,960 --> 00:12:36,400 Speaker 1: be more to their liking. And beyond that, there's also 208 00:12:36,480 --> 00:12:38,160 Speaker 1: the issue of how do you have a country that 209 00:12:38,240 --> 00:12:42,880 Speaker 1: has anything that feels cohesive about it if you're going 210 00:12:42,960 --> 00:12:45,560 Speaker 1: to be bringing millions of different people in year after 211 00:12:45,640 --> 00:12:48,200 Speaker 1: year after year from all over the world, disparate cultures, 212 00:12:48,200 --> 00:12:53,400 Speaker 1: different languages, different religions, different political beliefs, and everything else. 213 00:12:54,600 --> 00:12:56,360 Speaker 1: You could say, well, that's always been a story of America. 214 00:12:56,400 --> 00:12:58,800 Speaker 1: That's actually not true. Another lie that they tell the 215 00:12:58,840 --> 00:13:03,840 Speaker 1: story of America is temporary waves of migration, legal migration, 216 00:13:04,360 --> 00:13:07,839 Speaker 1: followed by real clampdowns, like all right, now we all 217 00:13:07,840 --> 00:13:10,120 Speaker 1: get to live. Now we've let some more people into 218 00:13:10,160 --> 00:13:11,600 Speaker 1: the house. Now we all live in the house together 219 00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:14,000 Speaker 1: for a while, we get to know each other. It's 220 00:13:14,040 --> 00:13:16,280 Speaker 1: not supposed to be just open door policy forever. That's 221 00:13:16,320 --> 00:13:20,520 Speaker 1: actually not how immigration has worked in America. And it's 222 00:13:20,559 --> 00:13:23,160 Speaker 1: also quite a different thing to show up here as 223 00:13:23,200 --> 00:13:28,720 Speaker 1: a settler or a pioneer than it is to show 224 00:13:28,840 --> 00:13:33,440 Speaker 1: up get chauffeur around at taxpayer expense, be given a 225 00:13:33,520 --> 00:13:40,400 Speaker 1: you know, EBT card, free healthcare, and effectively told that 226 00:13:41,040 --> 00:13:43,240 Speaker 1: you are now going to be taken care of other 227 00:13:43,240 --> 00:13:46,439 Speaker 1: people who are already here, just by virtue of our 228 00:13:47,120 --> 00:13:49,560 Speaker 1: sense of guilt or obligation or something. It's a very 229 00:13:49,559 --> 00:13:52,760 Speaker 1: different thing. They're not hacking it out of the wilderness 230 00:13:52,800 --> 00:13:55,600 Speaker 1: with their own two hands here in this country. Okay, 231 00:13:55,880 --> 00:13:58,520 Speaker 1: this is a different thing. So if we look at 232 00:13:58,559 --> 00:14:03,280 Speaker 1: the immigration, immigration waves that have come in the twenty 233 00:14:03,280 --> 00:14:09,520 Speaker 1: first century illegally, the American economy is rather, the American 234 00:14:09,559 --> 00:14:12,320 Speaker 1: system is already straining under the weight of the promises 235 00:14:12,360 --> 00:14:15,240 Speaker 1: we've made to Americans. You really think that you're going 236 00:14:15,280 --> 00:14:17,720 Speaker 1: to be paying more or rather, this is when they 237 00:14:17,720 --> 00:14:22,160 Speaker 1: go the GDP is growing, GDP is not. That's not everything. 238 00:14:22,960 --> 00:14:25,200 Speaker 1: Of course, GDP grows if you have a million more people. 239 00:14:25,360 --> 00:14:29,479 Speaker 1: What is the quality of life of those people? How 240 00:14:29,560 --> 00:14:35,520 Speaker 1: are they contributing to the society around them, and how 241 00:14:35,520 --> 00:14:38,880 Speaker 1: are they assimilating into that society. These are all the questions. 242 00:14:38,880 --> 00:14:40,760 Speaker 1: But this is why Trump. He just needs to tell 243 00:14:40,760 --> 00:14:44,600 Speaker 1: these stories and people understand there are in fact huge 244 00:14:44,640 --> 00:14:48,560 Speaker 1: cost to illegal immigration, including the loss of life and 245 00:14:48,600 --> 00:14:50,760 Speaker 1: something that should be taken into account. Whenever we discussed this, 246 00:14:51,480 --> 00:14:53,920 Speaker 1: protecting yourself and your family is the number one job 247 00:14:53,960 --> 00:14:55,920 Speaker 1: for every parent. The moment I became a father, that 248 00:14:56,040 --> 00:14:58,560 Speaker 1: sense of protection or just became front and center in 249 00:14:58,600 --> 00:15:01,080 Speaker 1: my mind and our home. We have tools to protect 250 00:15:01,080 --> 00:15:04,680 Speaker 1: ourselves from from an intruder. Put aside the contents of 251 00:15:04,680 --> 00:15:07,440 Speaker 1: our guns, safes we keep locked. We have Sabers non 252 00:15:07,560 --> 00:15:10,800 Speaker 1: lethal products as well, including their home defense launchers. It's 253 00:15:10,800 --> 00:15:13,040 Speaker 1: the kind of protection you need in your home as well. 254 00:15:13,400 --> 00:15:15,160 Speaker 1: Now's a good time to secure your home with a 255 00:15:15,160 --> 00:15:18,240 Speaker 1: Saber home defense launcher. They make several some that look 256 00:15:18,320 --> 00:15:20,800 Speaker 1: like pistols, other that look like rifles. The Saber Home 257 00:15:20,840 --> 00:15:25,320 Speaker 1: Defense Launcher delivers powerful impact pepper projectiles. That's two more 258 00:15:25,320 --> 00:15:27,440 Speaker 1: than most competitors, and that matters in the moment you 259 00:15:27,520 --> 00:15:29,800 Speaker 1: need it most. When fear hits and you have to 260 00:15:29,800 --> 00:15:33,520 Speaker 1: defend yourself, having extra stopping power can change everything. Protection 261 00:15:33,600 --> 00:15:35,960 Speaker 1: doesn't stop at your front door when you're on the move. 262 00:15:36,080 --> 00:15:39,600 Speaker 1: Saber pepper sprays, pepper gels, and stun guns gives you compact, 263 00:15:39,680 --> 00:15:43,480 Speaker 1: reliable protection wherever life takes you.

Blue cities 283 00:16:50,360 --> 00:16:55,320 Speaker 5: are out of control, promising more, spending more, delivering less, 284 00:16:55,600 --> 00:16:59,120 Speaker 5: and pushing off the fiscal problems to some future day. 285 00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:04,520 Speaker 5: Take Los Angeles, another one party metropolis wrestling with affordability 286 00:17:04,560 --> 00:17:08,800 Speaker 5: and disorder. The city's homelessness budget for fiscal year twenty 287 00:17:08,880 --> 00:17:12,760 Speaker 5: twenty five twenty six totals about nine hundred and fifty 288 00:17:12,880 --> 00:17:16,480 Speaker 5: million dollars. Or take Chicago, with a mayor whose approval 289 00:17:16,560 --> 00:17:20,040 Speaker 5: rating is deep underwater when the pension promises are so 290 00:17:20,280 --> 00:17:23,800 Speaker 5: large that they will surely bankrupt the city at some point. 291 00:17:24,640 --> 00:17:26,720 Speaker 5: What is the theory of good government? 292 00:17:26,800 --> 00:17:32,479 Speaker 1: Here? There is no theory of good government. I mean 293 00:17:32,520 --> 00:17:35,400 Speaker 1: he walks right up to the conclusion but doesn't really 294 00:17:35,400 --> 00:17:38,760 Speaker 1: give it. Which is that, Yeah, Democrats, fundamental belief systems 295 00:17:38,760 --> 00:17:42,840 Speaker 1: when it comes to the governance of a city are failures, fails. 296 00:17:43,040 --> 00:17:47,280 Speaker 1: Cannot work, will not work. You cannot spend constantly more 297 00:17:47,280 --> 00:17:48,960 Speaker 1: than you take in. You cannot have a massive blood 298 00:17:48,960 --> 00:17:51,679 Speaker 1: of bureaucracy. You cannot tax people into submission and then 299 00:17:51,680 --> 00:17:54,720 Speaker 1: they have to leave. These are all bad ideas. You 300 00:17:54,720 --> 00:17:58,600 Speaker 1: cannot encourage homelessness, and wonder why people are unhappy with 301 00:17:58,760 --> 00:18:01,800 Speaker 1: disorder on the streets? All right?

Canceled mostly because the single highest bounty on 322 00:19:10,800 --> 00:19:16,679 Speaker 1: any cartel leader was this guy they called Elmentcho some 323 00:19:16,840 --> 00:19:24,040 Speaker 1: other long name, long Mexican name, but Elmentho is sort 324 00:19:24,080 --> 00:19:29,399 Speaker 1: of like El Chapo and Elmentho unlike El Chopo. He 325 00:19:29,520 --> 00:19:35,520 Speaker 1: wasn't a Sinalo ahead he was ce Halisco New Generation 326 00:19:36,320 --> 00:19:40,679 Speaker 1: Cartel so C and what is it? See? I always 327 00:19:40,720 --> 00:19:47,200 Speaker 1: messed up the acronym Calisco New Generation j NCJ or whatever. 328 00:19:47,240 --> 00:19:50,920 Speaker 1: Hold on, he's he's Elmentcho is the very big bad guy. 329 00:19:50,960 --> 00:19:55,400 Speaker 1: We're gonna give fifteen million dollars if someone takes him out. 330 00:19:56,720 --> 00:20:00,199 Speaker 1: So this is what happened over the weekend.

It's not an easy accro Jalisco News 333 00:20:11,080 --> 00:20:14,240 Speaker 1: Generation cartel. So I knew the name, but the acronym 334 00:20:14,320 --> 00:20:20,360 Speaker 1: was giving me some trouble. So this is considered these 335 00:20:20,440 --> 00:20:28,120 Speaker 1: days the most ultra violent and awful of the cartels, 336 00:20:28,240 --> 00:20:31,680 Speaker 1: which is really saying something. You can read about the 337 00:20:31,760 --> 00:20:33,880 Speaker 1: kind of things that they have done. I don't recommend 338 00:20:33,960 --> 00:20:39,639 Speaker 1: you do. Just think isis level mutilation, beheading, setting people 339 00:20:39,640 --> 00:20:41,440 Speaker 1: on fire. I mean the worst kind of stuff. These 340 00:20:41,440 --> 00:20:46,000 Speaker 1: are the These are the absolute. These people and these cartels, 341 00:20:46,080 --> 00:20:50,359 Speaker 1: these hitman sacarios and these cartel they're vermin. They are 342 00:20:50,400 --> 00:20:55,000 Speaker 1: a disgrace to humanity and they should be met with 343 00:20:55,480 --> 00:21:00,800 Speaker 1: the full force of the state. And that means come 344 00:21:00,840 --> 00:21:04,600 Speaker 1: out with your hands up or get carried out. That's it. 345 00:21:05,680 --> 00:21:08,720 Speaker 1: So this is what happened. There was an operation over 346 00:21:08,760 --> 00:21:14,439 Speaker 1: the weekend. Nemessio ase Guera Cervantes, that is all men 347 00:21:14,480 --> 00:21:20,280 Speaker 1: Show's name of the Healthy Schooling Generation cartel. He in 348 00:21:20,359 --> 00:21:26,840 Speaker 1: a joint Mexican military US intelligence assisted operation. I'm just 349 00:21:26,880 --> 00:21:30,119 Speaker 1: gonna take a guess here that we helped a lot. 350 00:21:30,640 --> 00:21:33,840 Speaker 1: I'm just a guess. I don't know, but a lot 351 00:21:33,880 --> 00:21:36,320 Speaker 1: of help, Like more help than anyone's talking about kind 352 00:21:36,320 --> 00:21:39,960 Speaker 1: of help, you know what I mean. Maybe not just 353 00:21:40,000 --> 00:21:46,480 Speaker 1: a guess. But this guy got taken out and all 354 00:21:46,480 --> 00:21:51,320 Speaker 1: hell broke loose. Not really a big surprise there. Guadalajara 355 00:21:52,280 --> 00:21:57,560 Speaker 1: plunged into chaos. The cartel retaliated. There was violence that 356 00:21:57,640 --> 00:22:02,440 Speaker 1: spread the cities and beach resorts, gun meantor stores and banks. 357 00:22:02,600 --> 00:22:08,679 Speaker 1: They block hated highways, and this is essentially the cartel saying, 358 00:22:08,840 --> 00:22:13,120 Speaker 1: you know, we're gonna rain holy hell down on you. 359 00:22:13,240 --> 00:22:14,919 Speaker 1: If you think you can get away with this kind 360 00:22:14,960 --> 00:22:18,600 Speaker 1: of stuff, at least come to the generation. Cartel is interesting. 361 00:22:18,640 --> 00:22:22,200 Speaker 1: It doesn't just do the extreme violence I talked you 362 00:22:22,200 --> 00:22:25,520 Speaker 1: a little bit about, but it really is a all 363 00:22:25,560 --> 00:22:31,280 Speaker 1: of the above criminal enterprise. Human trafficking gets into the 364 00:22:31,600 --> 00:22:36,800 Speaker 1: avocado game, believe it or not, smuggles migrants, like I said, 365 00:22:38,160 --> 00:22:42,880 Speaker 1: all kinds of things, well, oil theft. By the way, 366 00:22:42,920 --> 00:22:46,240 Speaker 1: this is what when the Islamics was a long state 367 00:22:46,240 --> 00:22:48,840 Speaker 1: did this too, but Al Khaida in Iraq, people always 368 00:22:48,840 --> 00:22:51,280 Speaker 1: think of it as a terrorist group. For my time 369 00:22:51,320 --> 00:22:55,280 Speaker 1: working Iraq in the on the CIA desk, a rock 370 00:22:55,320 --> 00:23:00,000 Speaker 1: desk rather at the CIA, AQI at the time, would 371 00:23:00,080 --> 00:23:01,480 Speaker 1: do and all of you serve the military. You know 372 00:23:01,520 --> 00:23:03,520 Speaker 1: exactly what I'm talking about. Yeah, they would blow up 373 00:23:04,640 --> 00:23:06,800 Speaker 1: a marketplace and say they're doing this for Jiha. But 374 00:23:06,800 --> 00:23:10,399 Speaker 1: they would kidnap people for ransom and saw their head off, 375 00:23:10,400 --> 00:23:12,720 Speaker 1: even if the ransom was paid. They would steal oil 376 00:23:13,040 --> 00:23:15,760 Speaker 1: from oil trucks. They would just take the truck, take 377 00:23:15,800 --> 00:23:20,640 Speaker 1: all the oil. They would do protection rackets to stores, 378 00:23:20,680 --> 00:23:22,320 Speaker 1: you know, give us money or we'll just blow up 379 00:23:22,320 --> 00:23:25,159 Speaker 1: your store and kill everybody in it. So just criminal 380 00:23:25,280 --> 00:23:28,359 Speaker 1: enterprises and just just violence to get what they want, 381 00:23:28,440 --> 00:23:33,159 Speaker 1: violence to advance their interest. So these holistical new generation 382 00:23:33,240 --> 00:23:37,320 Speaker 1: cartel operates like that. They finally took the sky on 383 00:23:37,400 --> 00:23:40,760 Speaker 1: mentro out. Like I said, fifteen million dollar bounty on 384 00:23:40,800 --> 00:23:45,560 Speaker 1: his head. So that's it's pretty considerable. And the Mexican 385 00:23:45,600 --> 00:23:47,800 Speaker 1: government now is trying to figure out, Okay, well what's 386 00:23:47,920 --> 00:23:53,560 Speaker 1: next here. I see this and I say, first of all, 387 00:23:54,680 --> 00:23:58,920 Speaker 1: this is a big win for the anti cartel side 388 00:23:58,920 --> 00:24:03,760 Speaker 1: of things, And I think that this is only possible 389 00:24:03,800 --> 00:24:08,080 Speaker 1: because of American interest in American help in this situation. 390 00:24:08,359 --> 00:24:10,880 Speaker 1: That's what I think, And as I said, I think 391 00:24:10,880 --> 00:24:13,479 Speaker 1: our help and our interest is probably considerably higher than 392 00:24:13,520 --> 00:24:18,399 Speaker 1: anything that has been yet reported, although I'm not not 393 00:24:18,520 --> 00:24:21,639 Speaker 1: able to say anymore than that's just my hunch, but 394 00:24:21,720 --> 00:24:23,720 Speaker 1: I think it could be the beginning of US getting 395 00:24:23,840 --> 00:24:29,240 Speaker 1: far more involved in this because what is the primary 396 00:24:30,640 --> 00:24:34,359 Speaker 1: financial activity of how this going to new generation cartel, 397 00:24:34,520 --> 00:24:37,119 Speaker 1: Just like Sinaloa and the Zetas and all these others, 398 00:24:38,520 --> 00:24:42,520 Speaker 1: it's strug smuggling, and what is the primary market the 399 00:24:42,600 --> 00:24:47,800 Speaker 1: United States? So they're the ones who are putting fentanyl 400 00:24:48,359 --> 00:24:51,320 Speaker 1: on the streets of America. And we have all these 401 00:24:51,359 --> 00:24:55,399 Speaker 1: overdoses you're in year out, less than one hundred thousand 402 00:24:55,480 --> 00:24:57,160 Speaker 1: last year, so the number has gone down a bit, 403 00:24:57,200 --> 00:25:01,440 Speaker 1: but tens of thousands of people you're dying. And Trump 404 00:25:01,440 --> 00:25:06,880 Speaker 1: has said enough is enough, enough is enough. So the 405 00:25:06,920 --> 00:25:10,920 Speaker 1: war on drugs under this administration certainly looks a little 406 00:25:10,960 --> 00:25:12,399 Speaker 1: bit more like a war than what we've seen in 407 00:25:12,640 --> 00:25:16,440 Speaker 1: previous administrations. We've been blowing up the narco boats in 408 00:25:16,520 --> 00:25:21,040 Speaker 1: the Caribbean. Interestingly, enough, those narco boats coming from Venezuela 409 00:25:21,160 --> 00:25:28,440 Speaker 1: are almost one hundred percent cocaine carrying, not actually fentanyl carrying. 410 00:25:29,040 --> 00:25:32,480 Speaker 1: So they carried cocaine and it's mostly for transshipment from 411 00:25:32,480 --> 00:25:37,600 Speaker 1: the Caribbean into European markets. But we also wanted it, 412 00:25:37,600 --> 00:25:40,160 Speaker 1: as it's quite clear now, we wanted to put pressure 413 00:25:40,359 --> 00:25:45,080 Speaker 1: on the Venezuelan government too, and the narco trafficker Maduro 414 00:25:45,119 --> 00:25:47,119 Speaker 1: who was running that government, who is now in prison. 415 00:25:47,200 --> 00:25:50,480 Speaker 1: So this was all part of a broader strategy. But 416 00:25:50,600 --> 00:25:53,000 Speaker 1: in the case of this ALSTA new generation cartel, these 417 00:25:53,000 --> 00:25:55,080 Speaker 1: are the guys who are just running fentanyl to every 418 00:25:55,119 --> 00:26:02,080 Speaker 1: major American city and engaged in unbelievable, unbelievably hideous violence. 419 00:26:02,880 --> 00:26:06,000 Speaker 1: Mexico has something like thirty thousand murders a year. Think 420 00:26:06,000 --> 00:26:09,360 Speaker 1: about that for a second, thirty thousand murders a year. 421 00:26:11,760 --> 00:26:14,840 Speaker 1: It's a country considerably smaller than the United States, and 422 00:26:14,880 --> 00:26:18,040 Speaker 1: there are areas of the country that it's just not 423 00:26:18,119 --> 00:26:20,960 Speaker 1: safe to go to. Oh speaking of that, because I said, 424 00:26:21,000 --> 00:26:23,280 Speaker 1: I hope you're not trying to travel these places. They 425 00:26:23,359 --> 00:26:28,360 Speaker 1: shut down airports and air travel into a whole bunch 426 00:26:28,440 --> 00:26:32,800 Speaker 1: because of all the disorder and unrest. In the streets 427 00:26:32,800 --> 00:26:36,439 Speaker 1: and the burning. They'll they'll set up a bus and 428 00:26:36,440 --> 00:26:38,520 Speaker 1: they'll light it on fire. You know, they'll steal a bus, 429 00:26:38,560 --> 00:26:40,320 Speaker 1: they'll light it on fire, and they'll block the highway 430 00:26:40,359 --> 00:26:45,800 Speaker 1: on the way to the airport. They do all kinds 431 00:26:45,840 --> 00:26:49,760 Speaker 1: of stuff, shoot off their guns, shoot the people. So 432 00:26:50,480 --> 00:26:53,080 Speaker 1: people who were planning to go on vacation to some 433 00:26:53,119 --> 00:26:58,080 Speaker 1: of these areas, Yeah, they had a rough, a rough 434 00:26:58,200 --> 00:27:02,360 Speaker 1: situation going on here. Because the airlines have to take 435 00:27:02,400 --> 00:27:08,520 Speaker 1: into account can we reliably safely land? Are we at risk? 436 00:27:09,560 --> 00:27:13,880 Speaker 1: Are our people, our staff, and our passengers are they 437 00:27:13,920 --> 00:27:18,800 Speaker 1: at risk? So this is a big hit. You know, 438 00:27:18,800 --> 00:27:20,280 Speaker 1: some of the stuff that we'd seen up to this 439 00:27:20,359 --> 00:27:25,120 Speaker 1: point had been elder member sort of over the hill 440 00:27:25,200 --> 00:27:30,600 Speaker 1: cartel bosses who had been transferred into US custody, and 441 00:27:30,720 --> 00:27:34,199 Speaker 1: that had happened under the Trump administration early on. But 442 00:27:34,520 --> 00:27:39,120 Speaker 1: this is taking out a big fish and this could certainly, 443 00:27:40,320 --> 00:27:42,320 Speaker 1: this could certainly rattle some cages over there. This could 444 00:27:42,320 --> 00:27:48,000 Speaker 1: create real challenges and problems that I think we might 445 00:27:48,119 --> 00:27:51,520 Speaker 1: end up. Well, let's just say this. I don't think 446 00:27:51,560 --> 00:27:54,920 Speaker 1: Trump is bluffing when he says that we're going to 447 00:27:54,960 --> 00:27:58,199 Speaker 1: go after the cartels. Given that we've been willing to 448 00:27:58,200 --> 00:28:03,160 Speaker 1: blow up these ships in the Caribbean. Do we think 449 00:28:03,160 --> 00:28:05,000 Speaker 1: that there's any reason that Trump would not be willing 450 00:28:05,040 --> 00:28:09,080 Speaker 1: to order strikes on high level targets in Mexico. The 451 00:28:09,160 --> 00:28:15,720 Speaker 1: Mexican President shinebaumb right, she's already said that the war 452 00:28:15,800 --> 00:28:19,680 Speaker 1: on the narcos is contrary to Mexican law and contrary 453 00:28:19,760 --> 00:28:24,360 Speaker 1: or to human rights. I think she's paid off. I mean, 454 00:28:24,560 --> 00:28:26,560 Speaker 1: I think she's I don't like I can't pretend that 455 00:28:26,600 --> 00:28:29,160 Speaker 1: I followed the ins and outs of daily Mexican politics, 456 00:28:29,200 --> 00:28:32,560 Speaker 1: but this woman, First of all, the amount of money 457 00:28:32,560 --> 00:28:35,359 Speaker 1: that these narco groups have. Think about the ways that 458 00:28:35,400 --> 00:28:38,800 Speaker 1: they can launder this money and get it into seemingly 459 00:28:38,880 --> 00:28:41,920 Speaker 1: legitimate businesses and then funnel to politicians. We've all seen 460 00:28:41,960 --> 00:28:44,800 Speaker 1: the Narco show, right, or at least a lot of 461 00:28:44,840 --> 00:28:46,680 Speaker 1: you have seen the Narco show. I've certainly seen it. 462 00:28:47,320 --> 00:28:50,880 Speaker 1: This stuff is real. There are ways that the corruption 463 00:28:51,400 --> 00:28:55,160 Speaker 1: reaches all the way to the top. And it seems 464 00:28:55,160 --> 00:28:57,840 Speaker 1: that the Mexican government as it stands right now, the 465 00:28:57,880 --> 00:29:02,000 Speaker 1: agreement is whether it's or unspoken. As long as the 466 00:29:02,040 --> 00:29:07,240 Speaker 1: cartels are just focused mostly on poisoning Americans and creating 467 00:29:07,320 --> 00:29:11,600 Speaker 1: all of that destruction and decay on our streets. I remember, 468 00:29:11,640 --> 00:29:13,960 Speaker 1: it's not just the drugs, it's not just the overdoses. 469 00:29:14,880 --> 00:29:17,720 Speaker 1: It's the criminal enterprise is that flourish in America because 470 00:29:18,200 --> 00:29:22,000 Speaker 1: without the money, people wouldn't do this stuff. So people 471 00:29:22,080 --> 00:29:26,080 Speaker 1: sell the drugs. These street gangs, the famous ones that 472 00:29:26,120 --> 00:29:28,120 Speaker 1: we've all heard of before, the ones that are talked 473 00:29:28,160 --> 00:29:30,880 Speaker 1: about in rap songs and stuff. You know, all these 474 00:29:30,880 --> 00:29:35,040 Speaker 1: different gangs, they're selling drugs. So think about the amount 475 00:29:35,080 --> 00:29:37,200 Speaker 1: of and if you look at the homicide numbers in 476 00:29:37,240 --> 00:29:42,520 Speaker 1: this country, how many people are being shot in drug 477 00:29:42,600 --> 00:29:46,360 Speaker 1: turf war few? So, how many people are shot as 478 00:29:46,400 --> 00:29:49,000 Speaker 1: a result of gang activity of some kind or another. 479 00:29:49,520 --> 00:29:53,600 Speaker 1: It's very high. And that's when you when you look 480 00:29:53,640 --> 00:29:56,360 Speaker 1: at the full scope of the damage that's done to 481 00:29:56,440 --> 00:30:01,640 Speaker 1: this country because of the elicits sale of fentanol by 482 00:30:01,640 --> 00:30:06,800 Speaker 1: these cartels into this into our borders. It's vast. And 483 00:30:06,840 --> 00:30:09,800 Speaker 1: Trump is just saying, you know, enough is enough. The 484 00:30:09,880 --> 00:30:11,880 Speaker 1: problem they have in Mexico is going to be the 485 00:30:11,960 --> 00:30:15,880 Speaker 1: cartels are very you know, each one of these cartels 486 00:30:15,880 --> 00:30:20,560 Speaker 1: has thousands and thousands of Sakario assassin soldier types, whatever 487 00:30:20,600 --> 00:30:22,760 Speaker 1: you're gonna call them, you know, gunmen for who work 488 00:30:22,840 --> 00:30:26,600 Speaker 1: for the cartels, and they'll do anything, and they will 489 00:30:26,600 --> 00:30:29,200 Speaker 1: start to attack the very infrastructure and the and the 490 00:30:29,280 --> 00:30:33,520 Speaker 1: underlying foundational elements of Mexican society if they're pressed hard enough. 491 00:30:34,160 --> 00:30:35,960 Speaker 1: So that will hold us back at some level. But 492 00:30:36,040 --> 00:30:39,000 Speaker 1: maybe we start to turn parts of Mexico into something 493 00:30:39,040 --> 00:30:42,040 Speaker 1: a little more approximating the Northwest Frontier Province of Pakistan. 494 00:30:42,080 --> 00:30:47,680 Speaker 1: Remember that NWFP or was Zeristan FATA, the federally administered 495 00:30:47,720 --> 00:30:52,840 Speaker 1: tribal area all parts of Pakistan along the Afghan border 496 00:30:52,880 --> 00:30:55,840 Speaker 1: where there would just be these mysterious explosions that would happen. 497 00:30:56,560 --> 00:30:59,520 Speaker 1: Mysterious explosion would happen, and then some guy who was 498 00:30:59,560 --> 00:31:02,280 Speaker 1: a senior member of the Hacani network, maybe with some 499 00:31:02,320 --> 00:31:05,960 Speaker 1: ties to Al Qaida, or some guy who was doing 500 00:31:06,000 --> 00:31:08,800 Speaker 1: something sketchy for the Taliban or whatever it may be, 501 00:31:10,240 --> 00:31:12,800 Speaker 1: would be no more. We might start to have a 502 00:31:12,800 --> 00:31:14,920 Speaker 1: bit of that going on. I think the Mexican government, 503 00:31:14,920 --> 00:31:16,320 Speaker 1: no matter what, is going to be telling us that 504 00:31:16,360 --> 00:31:18,000 Speaker 1: they don't want us to do this, and if we 505 00:31:18,040 --> 00:31:20,840 Speaker 1: do it, they're going to be saying, how dare you? 506 00:31:20,920 --> 00:31:24,520 Speaker 1: How dare you? But they also know that Trump is 507 00:31:24,520 --> 00:31:28,040 Speaker 1: not going to allow this to just continue on where 508 00:31:28,080 --> 00:31:34,040 Speaker 1: we have the flourishing of drug groups, you know, drug 509 00:31:34,120 --> 00:31:36,920 Speaker 1: gangs on our streets, and the people who are overdosing, 510 00:31:37,320 --> 00:31:39,440 Speaker 1: and all the loss of life and all the loss 511 00:31:39,480 --> 00:31:42,840 Speaker 1: of people's futures and the destruction of families that comes 512 00:31:42,840 --> 00:31:45,360 Speaker 1: from this stuff. So taking out a guy with a 513 00:31:45,360 --> 00:31:49,800 Speaker 1: fifteen million dollar bounding on his head is significant. They'll 514 00:31:49,800 --> 00:31:52,360 Speaker 1: replace him. I get all that, but it's significant insofar 515 00:31:52,400 --> 00:31:54,240 Speaker 1: as I think it might be the beginning of something 516 00:31:54,640 --> 00:31:59,560 Speaker 1: far more sustained and more systematic. If you will, all right, 517 00:31:59,600 --> 00:32:01,800 Speaker 1: if you're in the Northeast today, it's taken you two 518 00:32:01,920 --> 00:32:03,760 Speaker 1: or three times the normal amount of energy just to 519 00:32:03,800 --> 00:32:07,040 Speaker 1: get through the winter storm.
