WEBVTT - DC MADNESS - WHO'S REALLY UPSET? 0:00:04.280 --> 0:00:08.280 This is the Rogue Recap with Linda McLaughlin. She's unfiltered, unforgiving, 0:00:08.640 --> 0:00:12.159 and understandably annoyed by everyone. Make sure you like and 0:00:12.200 --> 0:00:15.400 subscribe to a podcast and follow her on x at 0:00:15.680 --> 0:00:16.440 Rogue Recap. 0:00:18.079 --> 0:00:20.799 Hey guys, welcome back to the Rogue Recap. It is 0:00:21.079 --> 0:00:24.439 uh what is today? Today is Tuesday. It's pouring rain 0:00:24.520 --> 0:00:28.560 here and definitely starting to feel like school is back 0:00:28.560 --> 0:00:30.400 in session. I remember that when I was a kid 0:00:30.560 --> 0:00:32.239 in the weather, he used to get colder, like at 0:00:32.280 --> 0:00:33.920 the end of the summer, and I'd be super sacked. 0:00:34.000 --> 0:00:36.560 I was like, it's over, We're going back. I mean, 0:00:36.640 --> 0:00:39.040 I was a nerd. I like school, but still I 0:00:39.080 --> 0:00:42.160 hate it going back. And now I got four kids, 0:00:42.159 --> 0:00:44.040 two of them in college and two going back to 0:00:44.040 --> 0:00:47.040 school next week and the week after, so we're in 0:00:47.080 --> 0:00:49.879 full school mode here at my house. And I have 0:00:49.960 --> 0:00:52.680 to say, you know, I was looking at all the 0:00:52.760 --> 0:00:54.640 things that are happening in DC and a lot of 0:00:54.640 --> 0:00:57.920 these people taking their kids back to school and going 0:00:57.960 --> 0:01:00.200 to work and walking around and they don't have to 0:01:00.240 --> 0:01:03.520 walk over homeless people and drug addicts and needles and 0:01:04.160 --> 0:01:07.840 you know, feces and urine all over their streets, and 0:01:07.880 --> 0:01:13.160 then you got these lunatics that are protesting and saying 0:01:13.200 --> 0:01:16.680 that it's you know, it's Nazis, it's Hitler, it's it's 0:01:16.720 --> 0:01:20.120 a takeover because of the fact that President Trump is 0:01:20.160 --> 0:01:24.440 federalizing control of the city. Now here's what's interesting about this, 0:01:24.600 --> 0:01:28.520 right some of you may have heard of this woman, Anagiratelli. 0:01:28.680 --> 0:01:32.080 She is a Washington Examiner Department of Homeland Security reporter. 0:01:32.440 --> 0:01:37.919 She was sexually assaulted in twenty twenty and talked about 0:01:37.920 --> 0:01:41.400 how her assault was not even entered into the records 0:01:41.959 --> 0:01:45.960 because they manipulate the statistical data of the crime in DC. 0:01:46.720 --> 0:01:49.640 And the former police chief is now an administrative leave 0:01:49.840 --> 0:01:52.600 as they look into this manipulation. The Department of Justice 0:01:52.640 --> 0:01:55.960 is finally taking it upon themselves to figure out what 0:01:56.120 --> 0:01:58.960 the hell is going on. But all of the local 0:01:59.000 --> 0:02:01.960 people that live in the DC metro and if any 0:02:02.000 --> 0:02:04.800 of you have ever been to our nation's capital, you know, 0:02:04.840 --> 0:02:08.440 you walk through Union Station, it's just it's terrible. It's 0:02:08.560 --> 0:02:12.720 tons of drug addicts, homeless people. It smells terrible. You 0:02:12.840 --> 0:02:16.760 literally cannot go five feet without walking over someone or 0:02:16.760 --> 0:02:19.680 bumping into someone, or having someone to you know, come 0:02:19.760 --> 0:02:22.040 up and beg from you, and then you go outside 0:02:22.040 --> 0:02:24.680 and it's no better. Their homeless encampments are everywhere. They're 0:02:24.720 --> 0:02:27.560 all over, you know, the National Mall. It's it's really, 0:02:28.160 --> 0:02:29.959 first of all, it's sad, right because a lot of 0:02:30.000 --> 0:02:33.760 these people that are homeless have mental illness, so they're outside. 0:02:33.840 --> 0:02:35.800 They have no place to go because of the fact 0:02:35.840 --> 0:02:38.919 that they are struggling. They're struggling with mental illness. And 0:02:39.000 --> 0:02:42.400 we've closed down a lot of those facilities because Democrat 0:02:42.680 --> 0:02:46.280 administrations like to take all of our tax dollars and 0:02:46.400 --> 0:02:50.240 allocate them to foreign invaders and illegal immigrants instead of 0:02:50.240 --> 0:02:53.520 giving them to our veterans with post traumatic stress disorder 0:02:54.080 --> 0:02:56.200 or to people who have struggled their whole life with 0:02:56.240 --> 0:02:59.680 mental health, whether it's bipolari schizophrenia, and now they're out 0:02:59.680 --> 0:03:02.040 on the sh streets because they actually can't find work 0:03:02.080 --> 0:03:04.680 because they are not of sound mind. They should be 0:03:04.720 --> 0:03:07.320 an assistant living, they should be in a mental institution. 0:03:07.440 --> 0:03:11.080 They should be taking some sort of you know, medicine 0:03:11.080 --> 0:03:14.960 so that they could regulate their various their various issues. 0:03:15.000 --> 0:03:18.960 It's just it's just sad, and it just goes back 0:03:19.000 --> 0:03:20.679 to like the main issue, right, like if we don't 0:03:20.680 --> 0:03:23.160 start taking care of our own, from our veterans, to 0:03:23.240 --> 0:03:25.760 our homeless, to our women and children, to our elderly, 0:03:26.160 --> 0:03:27.960 we are going to lose our country. And if you 0:03:28.000 --> 0:03:32.320 look around and you see people defending Sharia law, Islamic 0:03:32.400 --> 0:03:37.040 centers and illegal immigrants and they want to attack ICE officers, 0:03:37.040 --> 0:03:41.200 we have people within Congress that are docksing ICE officers 0:03:41.240 --> 0:03:43.120 and telling you where they're going to be and hide 0:03:43.160 --> 0:03:46.680 from them. You know, this is it's just beyond the pale. 0:03:47.080 --> 0:03:49.040 If you don't want to be here and you don't 0:03:49.040 --> 0:03:51.160 want to live the way that we live, and you 0:03:51.200 --> 0:03:54.240 don't want to adhere to our laws, that's fine. No 0:03:54.240 --> 0:03:57.160 one's keeping you here. I promise you don't let the 0:03:57.200 --> 0:03:58.640 door hit you on the way, you know, in the 0:03:58.680 --> 0:04:02.640 ass on the way out. Oh now, please immediately. This 0:04:02.680 --> 0:04:04.840 is a massive issue that we have in the United 0:04:04.840 --> 0:04:08.240 States of America. And to that point, the President even 0:04:08.240 --> 0:04:12.080 said today he's having various people go into the museums 0:04:12.160 --> 0:04:16.400 and the Smithsonian, et cetera, and looking around to see 0:04:16.440 --> 0:04:18.400 what they're teaching our kids when they go on these 0:04:18.440 --> 0:04:21.920 school trips to these various you know, establishments that get 0:04:21.960 --> 0:04:25.320 all this taxpayer funding and they're in there just bashing 0:04:25.360 --> 0:04:28.880 the history of America. This is the greatest country in 0:04:28.920 --> 0:04:31.320 the world, you know, and this whole idea of like 0:04:31.360 --> 0:04:33.360 we're a melting pot, We're not really a melting pot. 0:04:33.360 --> 0:04:35.479 We're like a bunch of melting pots kind of sitting 0:04:35.480 --> 0:04:37.599 next to each other, and sometimes we're mingle and sometimes 0:04:37.600 --> 0:04:40.240 we don't, and we're kind of doing our best. But 0:04:40.279 --> 0:04:44.520 we are definitely the nation in the world that has 0:04:45.000 --> 0:04:47.960 really given the most freedom to its people and done 0:04:47.960 --> 0:04:51.719 its best to not sort of control the people beyond 0:04:52.000 --> 0:04:55.760 what we consider to be a defensible manner. Right. We're 0:04:55.760 --> 0:04:57.400 not trying to tell people how to live their lives 0:04:57.440 --> 0:04:59.400 in their home. We want you to do the right thing. 0:04:59.680 --> 0:05:02.599 Don't her puppies, don't hurt babies, you know, if you 0:05:02.600 --> 0:05:04.719 want to celebrate your culture in your house. But we 0:05:04.760 --> 0:05:07.080 don't need the call to prayer five times a day 0:05:07.120 --> 0:05:09.799 like they're doing in different places in Michigan and Minnesota 0:05:09.839 --> 0:05:12.479 and Texas right now. That's not what America is about. 0:05:12.480 --> 0:05:15.200 We're a Judeo Christian nation. We want you to live 0:05:15.240 --> 0:05:17.920 and prosper. We want you to build businesses, be an 0:05:18.000 --> 0:05:21.479 entrepreneurial work for an entrepreneur, work for a great company, 0:05:21.560 --> 0:05:25.239 become a tradesman, all the things. But this whole idea 0:05:25.320 --> 0:05:28.040 of I'm going to come to America, I'm going to 0:05:28.120 --> 0:05:31.239 live off the dole. And that's what America is all about. 0:05:31.279 --> 0:05:33.400 You know, the money is just falling from the trees. 0:05:33.839 --> 0:05:36.200 It's actually not falling from the trees. It's off of 0:05:36.240 --> 0:05:39.479 the backs of people like myself, my husband and our 0:05:39.520 --> 0:05:42.880 families who put in, you know, fifteen twenty hour days 0:05:42.920 --> 0:05:46.040 doing various jobs trying to make the rent work. And 0:05:46.120 --> 0:05:50.440 things are ridiculously expensive, whether it's health insurance or the 0:05:50.480 --> 0:05:54.760 subways or a track or your highway costs. You know, 0:05:54.800 --> 0:05:57.520 all these things are increasing. And why is it increasing 0:05:58.120 --> 0:06:00.800 Because we're taking care of too many peace people who 0:06:00.839 --> 0:06:04.760 are just depleting the system. They don't put anything in. 0:06:05.320 --> 0:06:08.520 They take, they take, they take. And finally we have 0:06:08.600 --> 0:06:11.440 a president who's like, hey, I have a new idea. 0:06:12.520 --> 0:06:16.360 If you're on government benefits, if you're on welfare, food stamps, 0:06:16.400 --> 0:06:19.520 assistance of any kind, and you are of you know, 0:06:19.680 --> 0:06:22.120 sound body and mind, how about you earn a little 0:06:22.160 --> 0:06:24.560 bit of what you're taking. How about that? You know, 0:06:24.960 --> 0:06:27.960 there's nothing I love to see more than no ebt 0:06:28.680 --> 0:06:32.760 on all of the fancy coffees, the expensive soft drinks, 0:06:32.839 --> 0:06:35.480 the snacks that are no good for you, and then 0:06:35.560 --> 0:06:37.880 things that are covered that are good for you, you know, 0:06:38.040 --> 0:06:41.960 sort of like the staples of life, eggs, bread, milk, 0:06:42.240 --> 0:06:45.560 cereal for your kids, et cetera. These are the things 0:06:45.640 --> 0:06:48.359 that should be covered by food stamps. And it's so 0:06:48.520 --> 0:06:51.640 great to finally see somebody saying, yeah, that's actually not 0:06:51.680 --> 0:06:53.159 covered and we're not going to do that for you. 0:06:53.520 --> 0:06:55.240 I can't even tell you how happy it makes me. 0:06:55.600 --> 0:06:57.640 And all these people they're losing their minds. I mean 0:06:57.680 --> 0:07:00.720 they're absolutely out of their minds and they're like, what 0:07:00.760 --> 0:07:03.760 do you mean I have to work for the money 0:07:03.760 --> 0:07:06.240 that the government's giving me. I don't know, that's what 0:07:06.279 --> 0:07:08.200 the rest of us do. Where do you think the 0:07:08.240 --> 0:07:11.640 money that you're getting comes from? I mean, really that 0:07:12.200 --> 0:07:14.040 this is the thing that drives me. Banana is the 0:07:14.040 --> 0:07:16.520 most I want you to take a listen to this woman. 0:07:16.600 --> 0:07:20.640 She's on government assistance. She gets the maximum allowable amount. 0:07:20.800 --> 0:07:23.240 She has three children, and she is baffled by the 0:07:23.280 --> 0:07:27.119 fact that she has to allocate some of her time 0:07:27.640 --> 0:07:31.480 to actually giving a little back for all that she gets. 0:07:31.800 --> 0:07:32.480 Just take a listen. 0:07:33.320 --> 0:07:37.640 Can someone please help me make sense of this. I've 0:07:37.640 --> 0:07:43.320 been receiving food stamps for the last seven years consistently. 0:07:44.680 --> 0:07:47.680 I just receive a letter in the mail telling me 0:07:47.960 --> 0:07:52.360 that I now have to do community service hours at 0:07:52.440 --> 0:07:56.440 least at least fifteen hours a week. I have to 0:07:56.480 --> 0:07:59.240 take out of my time things that I do every 0:07:59.320 --> 0:08:02.440 day to do community service so that I can still 0:08:02.480 --> 0:08:06.480 continue to receive the benefits that I receive. Mind you, 0:08:06.560 --> 0:08:09.400 I am receiving the maximum benefit. I get two thousand 0:08:09.480 --> 0:08:12.520 dollars in food stamps a month, but that is only 0:08:12.600 --> 0:08:19.720 because I have three kids. Now, how do they expect 0:08:19.720 --> 0:08:23.280 me to be able to do community service hours if 0:08:23.320 --> 0:08:28.440 I can't even get a regular job. So I'm at 0:08:28.520 --> 0:08:31.200 risk of losing my food Stap benefits because I'm not 0:08:31.440 --> 0:08:32.400 putting an effort. 0:08:33.080 --> 0:08:38.760 Are you serious? Yes, we're serious. Here's a novel idea. 0:08:38.920 --> 0:08:41.000 Why don't you try working like the rest of us. 0:08:41.200 --> 0:08:43.880 This whole idea of I can't find a job. How 0:08:43.880 --> 0:08:47.160 can you not find a job? I mean, honestly, you 0:08:47.240 --> 0:08:51.840 cannot go within even a few feet without finding a 0:08:52.080 --> 0:08:57.720 help wanted sign. Everybody's hiring. Everyone is hiring, and if 0:08:57.880 --> 0:09:00.920 you are unable to find a job. Well, then you 0:09:01.000 --> 0:09:03.640 are the problem. Maybe you need to look at yourself. 0:09:04.000 --> 0:09:07.120 Maybe you need to do something that you weren't intending 0:09:07.160 --> 0:09:08.960 on doing so that you could pay your bills. And 0:09:09.000 --> 0:09:11.600 I can't tell you how many times I've had this 0:09:11.640 --> 0:09:13.800 conversation with people who were on benefits and I'm like, 0:09:14.000 --> 0:09:15.880 so get a part time job at least, and I 0:09:15.920 --> 0:09:18.240 get the same thing. Well, I can't take too much 0:09:18.320 --> 0:09:23.080 because then I won't be able to get my benefits. 0:09:23.520 --> 0:09:27.760 What this is, This is the concept we don't want 0:09:27.800 --> 0:09:30.880 to make too much money because we don't want them 0:09:30.920 --> 0:09:34.600 to take away our money. It's not your money, that's 0:09:34.720 --> 0:09:37.520 taxpayer dollars. You know, there's a movie called The Cinderella 0:09:37.600 --> 0:09:40.079 Man with Russell Crowe. It's really old. It's one of 0:09:40.120 --> 0:09:43.280 my favorites. I absolutely love it. And he does this, 0:09:43.520 --> 0:09:45.319 you know, it shows you know, that was right around 0:09:45.400 --> 0:09:50.280 the nineteen twenty nine stock market crash. And he's a boxer. 0:09:50.400 --> 0:09:53.679 He lost all his money in the stock market and 0:09:53.720 --> 0:09:57.559 he's in really bad shape. So, long story short, he 0:09:57.600 --> 0:10:00.600 goes to government assistance. He's standing on the line and 0:10:00.640 --> 0:10:04.000 he's got to get government assistants because he can't get work. 0:10:04.640 --> 0:10:07.280 And the woman who gives him the money was like, oh, 0:10:07.280 --> 0:10:09.800 I can't believe you're here and chastises him, which really 0:10:09.840 --> 0:10:11.680 is that what he needed at that moment. But anyways, 0:10:12.240 --> 0:10:14.240 fast forward in the movie. You know, he's back in 0:10:14.280 --> 0:10:16.640 the black things are doing good and he takes the 0:10:16.679 --> 0:10:20.800 money back and the government assistance worker, who like made 0:10:20.880 --> 0:10:22.720 fun of him, was like, what are you doing here? 0:10:22.720 --> 0:10:24.560 And he's like, I believe I live in the greatest 0:10:24.559 --> 0:10:26.200 country in the world. Who will help a man when 0:10:26.240 --> 0:10:28.920 he's down, And I'm here to repay the favor. That's 0:10:29.000 --> 0:10:32.640 the concept. The concept is not cradle to grave, be 0:10:32.800 --> 0:10:36.480 on the dole. The concept is, uh, oh I've hit 0:10:36.480 --> 0:10:38.880 a rough patch. I need a little help, you know. 0:10:39.000 --> 0:10:43.080 I personally feel blessed that as hard as my upbringing was, 0:10:43.120 --> 0:10:45.520 and as hard as my mom worked and did everything 0:10:45.559 --> 0:10:48.160 she did, God bless her for us, we never took 0:10:48.200 --> 0:10:51.560 government assistance. At our lowest of low my mom was like, 0:10:51.679 --> 0:10:54.000 I can do it. I can work. She was working 0:10:54.000 --> 0:10:57.120 two three jobs, working around the clock, never sleeping. I 0:10:57.120 --> 0:11:00.320 started babysitting when I was ten. I started and I 0:11:00.360 --> 0:11:02.200 got my part time working papers I think when I 0:11:02.240 --> 0:11:05.240 was thirteen or fourteen, sorry, working in the stores, go 0:11:05.280 --> 0:11:07.559 to school all day, work all night, do your homework. 0:11:08.080 --> 0:11:10.160 You know, that's a work ethic that you have to 0:11:10.200 --> 0:11:12.440 be brought up with. You have to teach your kids. 0:11:13.120 --> 0:11:15.439 You know, life is hard, but if you work hard, 0:11:15.559 --> 0:11:17.960 you'll be rewarded and you'll be able to live a 0:11:18.000 --> 0:11:19.920 life where when you take those breaks and you take 0:11:19.960 --> 0:11:23.360 those moments, you're happy. And that seems to be lost 0:11:23.559 --> 0:11:26.240 on you know, a lot of these generations, especially the 0:11:26.240 --> 0:11:29.800 boomer generation. You know, these protesters that are down there 0:11:30.280 --> 0:11:36.000 screaming at President Vice President Vance and Secretary of Defense 0:11:36.040 --> 0:11:39.240 Pete Hegseth and Stephen Miller. You know, they're going to 0:11:39.720 --> 0:11:41.480 you know, they're in the Capitol and they're you know, 0:11:41.520 --> 0:11:44.800 they're welcoming the National Guard and they're thanking them for 0:11:44.840 --> 0:11:48.440 their assistance and they're thanking them for their time. And 0:11:49.040 --> 0:11:53.800 there's these hecklers screaming, I mean literally screaming at them 0:11:54.160 --> 0:11:58.800 because they're mad that they're there. Meanwhile, the hecklers are 0:11:58.880 --> 0:12:03.440 all old white people. The DC Metro is almost I 0:12:03.440 --> 0:12:06.640 think it's like eighty five or ninety percent black. Who 0:12:06.720 --> 0:12:10.800 are you to talk about the DC Metro community and 0:12:10.840 --> 0:12:13.320 the crime and the trauma that they face every day, 0:12:13.640 --> 0:12:16.600 just trying to go about their day. Where do you live? 0:12:17.000 --> 0:12:18.880 And that's the problem. You talk to them where you're from. 0:12:18.960 --> 0:12:22.120 This one's from Markansas, This one's from Colorado, This one's 0:12:22.120 --> 0:12:25.360 from California, This one's from New York. None of these 0:12:25.360 --> 0:12:27.679 people are local. They don't know what it's like to 0:12:27.720 --> 0:12:31.360 live in these communities. It's absolutely incredible. I will say, 0:12:32.000 --> 0:12:34.440 you know, Stephen Miller, he roasted them and it was 0:12:34.600 --> 0:12:35.560 very well done. 0:12:35.880 --> 0:12:38.240 First of all, thank you're the Vice president for bringing 0:12:38.280 --> 0:12:41.160 us here today. Thank you Secretary for your leadership, and 0:12:41.240 --> 0:12:43.320 most importantly, think you hear the men and women of 0:12:43.360 --> 0:12:47.920 the National Guard. Here's the most important point. There are 0:12:47.960 --> 0:12:51.640 residents who lived in Washington, d C. Their entire lives. 0:12:51.880 --> 0:12:55.959 Their parents lived here, their grandparents lived here, and they 0:12:55.960 --> 0:13:00.840 have lived for generations in intolerable conditions of I'm in decay. 0:13:01.120 --> 0:13:03.240 There are parts of the city I moved to the 0:13:03.240 --> 0:13:06.160 city twenty years ago. There are places where I've seen 0:13:06.160 --> 0:13:10.160 graffiti that has been untouched for two decades. There are 0:13:10.160 --> 0:13:14.000 homeless encampments that have made it impossible for families to 0:13:14.160 --> 0:13:17.400 use public parks and public recreation for as long as 0:13:17.440 --> 0:13:20.680 I've lived here. There are hundreds of residents of this 0:13:20.800 --> 0:13:26.040 city who are shot in street violence every single year, 0:13:26.160 --> 0:13:29.439 making it among the most violent cities on planet Earth. 0:13:30.280 --> 0:13:34.040 And for too long, ninety nine percent of this city 0:13:34.360 --> 0:13:37.480 has been terrorized by one percent. 0:13:37.120 --> 0:13:38.199 Of the city. 0:13:38.240 --> 0:13:42.160 And the voices that you hear out there, those crazy communists, 0:13:42.400 --> 0:13:45.120 they have no roots, they have no connections to the city. 0:13:45.280 --> 0:13:47.559 They have no families they are raising this city. They 0:13:47.559 --> 0:13:49.280 have no one that they are sending to school in 0:13:49.280 --> 0:13:51.240 this city, they have no jobs in the city, they 0:13:51.280 --> 0:13:54.160 have no connections to this community at all. But they're 0:13:54.200 --> 0:13:58.040 the ones who've been advocating for the one percent, the criminals, 0:13:58.160 --> 0:14:01.600 the killers, the rapists, the dealers. And I'm glad they're 0:14:01.640 --> 0:14:04.120 here today because me, Pete and the Vice President are 0:14:04.120 --> 0:14:06.800 all gonna leave here and inspired by them, we're gonna 0:14:06.800 --> 0:14:10.720 add thousands more resources to this city to get the 0:14:10.720 --> 0:14:12.880 criminals and the gang members out of here. We're gonna 0:14:12.920 --> 0:14:16.560 disamandle those networks, and we're gonna prove that a city 0:14:16.840 --> 0:14:20.040 can serve for the law abiding citizens who live there. 0:14:20.160 --> 0:14:23.760 We are not gonna let the communists destroy a great 0:14:23.800 --> 0:14:27.160 American city, let alone the nation's capital. And let's just 0:14:27.160 --> 0:14:30.480 also adds another thing, all these demonstrators that you've seen 0:14:30.480 --> 0:14:34.360 out here in recent days, all of these elderly white hippies, 0:14:34.880 --> 0:14:37.320 they're not part of the city and never happen. And 0:14:37.360 --> 0:14:39.680 by the way, most of the citizens who live in Washington, 0:14:39.720 --> 0:14:43.200 d C. Are black. This is not a city that 0:14:43.320 --> 0:14:49.200 has had any safety for its black citizens for generations. 0:14:49.360 --> 0:14:51.960 And President Trump is the one who is fixing that 0:14:52.040 --> 0:14:54.880 with the support in the Metropolitan Police Department to support 0:14:54.960 --> 0:14:57.640 the National Guard and our federal law enforcement officers. 0:14:58.040 --> 0:14:58.880 So we're gonna. 0:14:58.600 --> 0:15:01.680 Ignore these stupid white hips that all need to go 0:15:01.720 --> 0:15:04.280 home and take a nap because they're all over ninety 0:15:04.360 --> 0:15:06.240 years old, and we're going to get back to the 0:15:06.240 --> 0:15:08.680 business of protecting the American people and the citizens of 0:15:08.760 --> 0:15:09.640 Washington disiasm. 0:15:09.960 --> 0:15:14.880 Thank you, Steven, A few questions. I absolutely love this. 0:15:15.720 --> 0:15:18.400 I love that someone finally called them on their bullshit 0:15:18.560 --> 0:15:22.000 because it's so true. You know, there are protests all 0:15:22.040 --> 0:15:23.720 around where I live because I live in kind of 0:15:23.760 --> 0:15:27.680 a purple area, and the most recent protest, my husband 0:15:27.720 --> 0:15:31.960 and I noted that that every single person in this 0:15:32.040 --> 0:15:35.400 damn protest had to be sixty five plus. I'm like, 0:15:35.480 --> 0:15:37.680 did they just go to every fifty five and over 0:15:37.800 --> 0:15:39.560 living community and say, hey, you want to make a 0:15:39.640 --> 0:15:42.360 hundred bucks for the day, hold this sign and yell 0:15:42.440 --> 0:15:44.200 stupid things. They were like, all right, I wasn't doing 0:15:44.200 --> 0:15:47.920 anything anyway. I mean, it is the most bizarre thing 0:15:47.960 --> 0:15:52.680 in the world. And they're really toxic. They're nasty, they're mean. 0:15:53.320 --> 0:15:55.640 I don't know. I don't actually know if they're all 0:15:55.680 --> 0:15:58.280 like triggered, if they if they're giving them some sort 0:15:58.280 --> 0:16:01.360 of medicine before they go out and they protest, that's like, 0:16:01.400 --> 0:16:03.920 you know, here's your extra mean pill. I mean, they're 0:16:04.000 --> 0:16:06.800 just so nasty. They get in the way and they're screaming. 0:16:06.840 --> 0:16:11.040 They're screaming at anybody that they can. They're mad at everybody, 0:16:11.560 --> 0:16:14.720 and there's no rhyme or reason to it whatsoever. I'm like, 0:16:14.760 --> 0:16:17.520 what are you doing here? Are you saying that you 0:16:17.600 --> 0:16:21.680 want more crime? Are you saying that you feel that 0:16:21.800 --> 0:16:24.720 this is wrong? They're not going in around and you know, 0:16:24.760 --> 0:16:27.520 the National Guard's not patrolling the street saying hey, what 0:16:27.600 --> 0:16:29.920 are you texting right now? You know this isn't like 0:16:29.960 --> 0:16:35.000 Big Brother nineteen eighty four McCarthyism. This is oh hey, uh, 0:16:35.240 --> 0:16:38.400 you five guys attacking a grandma trying to cross the 0:16:38.440 --> 0:16:41.000 street and take her purse from her, and she can't 0:16:41.000 --> 0:16:43.520 defend herself because you guys are all fourteen years old 0:16:43.720 --> 0:16:46.520 and your juvenile delinquents, because you probably have a bad 0:16:46.560 --> 0:16:48.320 home life, which is a whole other show in and 0:16:48.360 --> 0:16:53.200 of itself. That's the real issue. That's that's who they're 0:16:53.240 --> 0:16:57.320 going after. They're going after illegal immigrants, they're going after 0:16:57.400 --> 0:17:00.880 career criminals, and they're going after peopleople that are attacking 0:17:00.880 --> 0:17:05.080 those who cannot protect themselves. And the Metro Police Department 0:17:05.119 --> 0:17:09.960 of DC under Muriel Bowser has done a pretty terrible job. 0:17:11.000 --> 0:17:12.879 And now they got their police chief. I mean, you 0:17:12.920 --> 0:17:15.399 look at their police chief, you look at their you know, 0:17:15.560 --> 0:17:19.520 head of police, you look at their you know, internal 0:17:19.720 --> 0:17:22.359 organizers of the police department that are supposed to be 0:17:22.440 --> 0:17:24.600 you know the thing, I forget what it's called when 0:17:24.640 --> 0:17:27.600 they investigate one another. But it's like all of these 0:17:27.640 --> 0:17:30.400 people that are supposed to be corralling and supporting each 0:17:30.440 --> 0:17:34.040 other and the city are like one big DEI project. 0:17:34.160 --> 0:17:36.440 I'm like, where'd you guys come from? What did you 0:17:36.480 --> 0:17:39.000 do before you did this? Because you are really messing 0:17:39.040 --> 0:17:42.679 this up. And it's like, instead of swallowing your pride, 0:17:42.680 --> 0:17:45.359 and saying, you know, there's babies getting shot. I was 0:17:45.400 --> 0:17:47.560 talking about this today with a friend and we were 0:17:47.560 --> 0:17:49.800 looking at this little one year old that was shot. 0:17:50.080 --> 0:17:53.800 She's still in the hospital in a coma. She's a baby, 0:17:54.359 --> 0:17:58.440 a one year old little baby. Yes, she's black, she's 0:17:58.480 --> 0:18:01.400 a black little baby. Where are all the people there? 0:18:01.400 --> 0:18:04.840 Where's BLM? Now you don't care about her, she doesn't matter. 0:18:05.359 --> 0:18:06.840 You're not going to march in the street for that 0:18:06.920 --> 0:18:09.879 little soul and pray that she pulls through. Oh no, 0:18:10.000 --> 0:18:11.600 that doesn't work for the mantra. Right, we need a 0:18:11.600 --> 0:18:15.120 bunch of double white people standing around talking trash about 0:18:15.119 --> 0:18:17.160 a city they don't live in, an issue they don't 0:18:17.160 --> 0:18:19.320 care about, and just getting their pay to play for 0:18:19.359 --> 0:18:22.160 that moment. I mean, what a crock of shit. It's infuriating. 0:18:22.800 --> 0:18:25.919 So I thought I would get a few pieces of 0:18:25.960 --> 0:18:29.720 audio of people that actually live in DC. Every one 0:18:29.720 --> 0:18:31.680 of these people is black. Every one of these people 0:18:31.760 --> 0:18:33.959 is talking about how they live in the metro and 0:18:34.000 --> 0:18:36.840 they will express to you how they're feeling about what 0:18:37.040 --> 0:18:40.240 is happening. I think it's a good thing because, you 0:18:40.280 --> 0:18:42.159 know what I'm saying, it's better for the community and 0:18:42.320 --> 0:18:43.359 safer for the kids. 0:18:43.359 --> 0:18:44.159 Stop the violence. 0:18:44.200 --> 0:18:45.760 You know what I'm saying, us and not slugs. 0:18:45.960 --> 0:18:48.080 I enjoy having extra security. 0:18:48.280 --> 0:18:49.359 I think it's a good thing. 0:18:49.600 --> 0:18:52.000 I mean, you want to feel safe when you're out 0:18:52.040 --> 0:18:53.920 and about, especially females. 0:18:54.119 --> 0:18:56.800 It's a good thing because it actually reinforces the fact 0:18:56.840 --> 0:18:59.280 that America is secure, safe, stable. 0:18:59.400 --> 0:19:02.560 Elliot Rea says he supports the federal involvement. 0:19:02.240 --> 0:19:04.640 As a moderate. As a centrist, I think something needs 0:19:04.640 --> 0:19:06.639 to be done. I have three kids, I'm about to 0:19:06.640 --> 0:19:09.200 start teaching next week. I wanted to be saved. 0:19:09.560 --> 0:19:12.440 Do you not understand that this is what the residents want. 0:19:12.560 --> 0:19:17.680 I'm not talking about the bougie upper Echelon's bougie blacks. 0:19:18.040 --> 0:19:21.840 I'm talking about the everyday grandmas that have to deal 0:19:21.880 --> 0:19:25.400 with these homeless people peeing and pooping on their steps 0:19:25.400 --> 0:19:27.720 and then they have to clean it up. They don't 0:19:27.720 --> 0:19:32.280 feel safe when they walk into their neighborhood. The gangs 0:19:32.359 --> 0:19:35.679 and the drug the dope boys are just standing around 0:19:35.800 --> 0:19:39.200 the corner, you know, like, do you not understand this 0:19:39.280 --> 0:19:43.240 is what they want? I remember working with the community 0:19:43.320 --> 0:19:46.280 leader and somebody had just gotten shot. This is like 0:19:46.320 --> 0:19:49.480 five years ago, and I remember her praying and she 0:19:49.560 --> 0:19:53.879 said Crystal, We're gonna have to invoke the National Guard, 0:19:54.320 --> 0:19:55.679 And that was so foreign to me. 0:19:56.160 --> 0:19:58.639 Now I understand the shit. These people are helpless. 0:19:58.760 --> 0:20:00.960 And I'm not talking about the boo she black people 0:20:00.960 --> 0:20:03.399 that live in their gated communities with their new bills. 0:20:03.640 --> 0:20:06.920 I'm talking about the everyday grandmothers, and I'm so glad 0:20:06.960 --> 0:20:08.679 that President Trump cares about them. 0:20:09.160 --> 0:20:12.480 Isn't that funny to hear from people that actually live there, 0:20:12.840 --> 0:20:15.560 that are telling you, you know, I'm a moderate, I'm 0:20:15.600 --> 0:20:18.000 a centrist. You know, I'm just out and about trying 0:20:18.000 --> 0:20:22.160 to live my life. And they're being very, very honest 0:20:22.200 --> 0:20:26.080 about the fact that they're happy about what President Trump 0:20:26.119 --> 0:20:31.359 is doing. They're grateful that somebody finally took notice and said, 0:20:31.800 --> 0:20:34.800 instead of just saying we can do something and not 0:20:35.000 --> 0:20:38.119 actually being able to do something, how about we do 0:20:38.240 --> 0:20:42.320 something because we can. That's what the National Guard is for. 0:20:42.840 --> 0:20:48.320 The National Guard is to protect and guard our national treasures. 0:20:48.840 --> 0:20:52.760 What's more important than our people. That's what they're there for. 0:20:53.040 --> 0:20:55.000 We need them. We need them now more than ever, 0:20:55.040 --> 0:20:57.600 I'll tell you that much. And I think it's absolutely 0:20:57.640 --> 0:21:01.240 incredible that we were able to get to a spot 0:21:01.720 --> 0:21:05.520 where we could honestly and truthfully bring people in to 0:21:05.640 --> 0:21:09.119 protect those people who actually live in Washington, d C. 0:21:09.680 --> 0:21:11.760
