1 00:00:11,480 --> 00:00:14,720 Speaker 1: Everybody, Welcome to Breaking Point. I'm David Zierr. You're watching 2 00:00:14,760 --> 00:00:18,360 Speaker 1: Real America's Voice News. I've had such an exciting three weeks. 3 00:00:18,400 --> 00:00:21,640 Speaker 1: Have been all over the Midwest and the south southeast 4 00:00:21,680 --> 00:00:27,560 Speaker 1: of the United States. Fort Bragg, Orlando at SPACECMM, and Iowa, 5 00:00:27,640 --> 00:00:30,840 Speaker 1: Clive Iware outside of Des Moines. Donald Trump covering him 6 00:00:31,840 --> 00:00:34,720 Speaker 1: coming out for the midterm race is really important stuff. 7 00:00:35,240 --> 00:00:37,840 Speaker 1: And also, you know, I was on the ground two 8 00:00:37,840 --> 00:00:41,479 Speaker 1: and a half weeks ago Minneapolis, and you got crazy 9 00:00:41,520 --> 00:00:45,720 Speaker 1: people out there. They're definitely crazy, but they want civil war. 10 00:00:46,400 --> 00:00:51,800 Speaker 1: It's just plain and simple. Not everybody, but their behavior 11 00:00:51,920 --> 00:00:55,000 Speaker 1: was atrocious and I was trying to keep it civilized 12 00:00:56,080 --> 00:01:01,319 Speaker 1: and we were attacked, assaulted, surrounded, throwing stuff at us, 13 00:01:01,320 --> 00:01:04,720 Speaker 1: trying to break the windows of our van. It was 14 00:01:04,760 --> 00:01:06,720 Speaker 1: really crazy. I'm going to get into that a little 15 00:01:06,760 --> 00:01:10,560 Speaker 1: bit later, but I just wanted to say that I'm 16 00:01:10,640 --> 00:01:13,319 Speaker 1: very grateful for Real America's Voice News for giving me 17 00:01:13,360 --> 00:01:16,919 Speaker 1: these opportunities as a front road to history. And also 18 00:01:17,400 --> 00:01:19,920 Speaker 1: I love meeting with the great people across the country, 19 00:01:20,160 --> 00:01:23,080 Speaker 1: the small business owners, the people who never ask for anything, 20 00:01:23,200 --> 00:01:25,640 Speaker 1: the diner owners. I love going to diners with our 21 00:01:25,680 --> 00:01:28,959 Speaker 1: camera crew. Brandon Jarvis has been with me a couple 22 00:01:29,040 --> 00:01:32,360 Speaker 1: of weeks. Of the last few weeks really exciting. I've 23 00:01:32,400 --> 00:01:35,000 Speaker 1: got great stuff coming up next week. I can't talk 24 00:01:35,040 --> 00:01:36,679 Speaker 1: about it now, but. 25 00:01:36,680 --> 00:01:40,440 Speaker 2: You'll see next week. Very exciting what's going on here. 26 00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:43,880 Speaker 1: But the only one I see that's making it easier 27 00:01:43,920 --> 00:01:49,600 Speaker 1: for people out there is the GOP and Trump. It's 28 00:01:49,680 --> 00:01:54,200 Speaker 1: not coming from the Democrats. You know, the average refund 29 00:01:54,280 --> 00:01:56,520 Speaker 1: is going to be like another thousand dollars in the 30 00:01:56,560 --> 00:01:58,960 Speaker 1: pockets of Americans when they do their taxes in a 31 00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:02,520 Speaker 1: couple of months, and there's jobs being created and economy 32 00:02:02,560 --> 00:02:06,600 Speaker 1: has grown over five percent. It's amazing, and we haven't 33 00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:09,000 Speaker 1: seen it yet because, like I'm here in the Northeast, 34 00:02:09,040 --> 00:02:12,200 Speaker 1: it's still cold. Home heat heating still at fort dollars 35 00:02:12,480 --> 00:02:16,280 Speaker 1: a gallon. It's atrocious. But I've seen gas as low 36 00:02:16,320 --> 00:02:20,200 Speaker 1: as a dollar ninety five in the Midwest. So it's 37 00:02:20,240 --> 00:02:22,880 Speaker 1: gonna come down. It's going to take more time. I 38 00:02:22,919 --> 00:02:25,280 Speaker 1: hope it's in time for the mid terms, because the 39 00:02:25,320 --> 00:02:29,320 Speaker 1: Democrats will set back this country if they take back Congress. 40 00:02:29,360 --> 00:02:32,080 Speaker 1: And this isn't a political thing, this is what's going 41 00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:34,560 Speaker 1: to happen if they take back the House, and god forbid, 42 00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:36,920 Speaker 1: they took back the Senate. They're going to make it 43 00:02:36,960 --> 00:02:40,440 Speaker 1: a living hell for the President and they're going to 44 00:02:40,520 --> 00:02:43,160 Speaker 1: reverse all this stuff and stuff that hasn't been codified 45 00:02:43,200 --> 00:02:47,320 Speaker 1: yet in executive orders. But one thing, thank god, Trump's 46 00:02:47,320 --> 00:02:51,320 Speaker 1: Executive Order and Defense Acquisitions was qualified in the NDAA 47 00:02:51,400 --> 00:02:54,280 Speaker 1: with bipartisan support and a House Armed Services Committee and 48 00:02:54,320 --> 00:02:58,160 Speaker 1: in Congress. That was important because I've spent spending a 49 00:02:58,160 --> 00:03:00,200 Speaker 1: lot of time. I was at Fort Bragg with the 50 00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:04,200 Speaker 1: Joint Innovation Outpost with the one hundred with the eighteenth 51 00:03:04,280 --> 00:03:08,080 Speaker 1: Airborne Corps and the Commander, Lieutenant General Greg Anderson for 52 00:03:08,120 --> 00:03:12,040 Speaker 1: the opening of the new Lieutenant General James Gavin Joint 53 00:03:12,400 --> 00:03:19,560 Speaker 1: Innovation Outpost cooperating with private industry and academia to get 54 00:03:19,600 --> 00:03:22,560 Speaker 1: our war fighters the equipment and the defense systems and 55 00:03:22,639 --> 00:03:26,320 Speaker 1: the weapons systems they need at speed and scale. I 56 00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:30,840 Speaker 1: covered the Navy Rapid Capabilities Office launch under John Falen, 57 00:03:30,840 --> 00:03:35,520 Speaker 1: who's an amazing individual, along with companies like Palanteer for 58 00:03:35,640 --> 00:03:40,120 Speaker 1: shipbuild os so we can start delivering ship ships we 59 00:03:40,200 --> 00:03:44,000 Speaker 1: haven't been delivering ships, and a lot of stuff going 60 00:03:44,040 --> 00:03:46,160 Speaker 1: on in that category, and I have a surprise for 61 00:03:46,200 --> 00:03:49,680 Speaker 1: you next week and we'll talk about that more. But 62 00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:55,640 Speaker 1: the local and state governments, the tax liability is suffocating 63 00:03:55,680 --> 00:03:58,480 Speaker 1: to the average American. And when you turn around and 64 00:03:58,480 --> 00:04:01,280 Speaker 1: by the time your homeowners insurance which is four or 65 00:04:01,360 --> 00:04:04,680 Speaker 1: five six thousand a year easily, it was seven hundred 66 00:04:04,680 --> 00:04:06,440 Speaker 1: dollars when I bought a house in ninety seven. Now 67 00:04:06,480 --> 00:04:10,160 Speaker 1: I'm paying forty five hundred dollars. It's crippling. It's crippling 68 00:04:10,160 --> 00:04:16,080 Speaker 1: for seniors, people on static incomes, retirees, first time home buyers. 69 00:04:16,240 --> 00:04:18,880 Speaker 1: And then take the local tax burden. Right, you're paying 70 00:04:18,920 --> 00:04:22,120 Speaker 1: one thousand a month in taxes here, seven thousand a 71 00:04:22,200 --> 00:04:25,640 Speaker 1: year on average. On Long Island, I'm paying thirteen for 72 00:04:25,680 --> 00:04:28,640 Speaker 1: a quarter of an acre. Every time you wake up. 73 00:04:28,680 --> 00:04:32,520 Speaker 1: It's fifteen hundred dollars before you paid your mortgage. So 74 00:04:32,600 --> 00:04:35,520 Speaker 1: if rates don't come down back to four percent, we're 75 00:04:35,520 --> 00:04:38,479 Speaker 1: going to struggle. And now things are going to get better. 76 00:04:38,520 --> 00:04:41,440 Speaker 1: There are more jobs. Is nineteen trillion in investment in 77 00:04:41,520 --> 00:04:44,760 Speaker 1: manufacturing and stuff coming back to the United States. It's 78 00:04:44,800 --> 00:04:47,240 Speaker 1: going to be a very good time in that regard. 79 00:04:47,600 --> 00:04:51,240 Speaker 1: But the overhead is still crippling for the average American. 80 00:04:51,520 --> 00:04:54,080 Speaker 1: We got to fix it. Here and Trump was out 81 00:04:54,120 --> 00:04:57,240 Speaker 1: in Clive, i Were last week. I covered him speaking 82 00:04:58,120 --> 00:05:03,880 Speaker 1: at a conference center and it was a packed house, 83 00:05:04,080 --> 00:05:04,760 Speaker 1: a lot of people. 84 00:05:04,800 --> 00:05:06,599 Speaker 2: I spent a lot of time in Iowa on the ground. 85 00:05:06,680 --> 00:05:09,719 Speaker 1: I spent probably a month total between the twenty twenty 86 00:05:09,760 --> 00:05:13,840 Speaker 1: twenty twenty four Iowa caucuses, the elections, the presidential elections. 87 00:05:14,040 --> 00:05:17,520 Speaker 1: I love the people Iowa. It's like my favorite state, Iowa. 88 00:05:17,720 --> 00:05:21,080 Speaker 1: Nice and these are great people, the hard working men 89 00:05:21,200 --> 00:05:26,440 Speaker 1: and women over there. And the GOP's fourth quarter hall 90 00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:29,600 Speaker 1: for vulnerable toss up GOP seats, according to the Cook 91 00:05:29,640 --> 00:05:35,440 Speaker 1: Political Report, was larger than the Dems their opponents this 92 00:05:35,600 --> 00:05:38,640 Speaker 1: past fourth quarter of twenty twenty five, averaging about seven 93 00:05:38,720 --> 00:05:41,960 Speaker 1: hundred and eighty thousand in their hall versus seven hundred 94 00:05:41,960 --> 00:05:44,680 Speaker 1: and ten thousand average for the Democrats. But the Dems 95 00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:49,320 Speaker 1: is still poised to take back the House. Got to 96 00:05:49,360 --> 00:05:51,159 Speaker 1: get on this right away. So Trump was in Clive, 97 00:05:51,200 --> 00:05:54,200 Speaker 1: Iowa to back up Marionette Miller. Meeks in a very 98 00:05:54,240 --> 00:05:58,159 Speaker 1: liberal moderate district in Iowa, in the first district, third district, 99 00:05:58,200 --> 00:06:01,359 Speaker 1: exact nun. He's a conservative guy, but a lot some 100 00:06:01,440 --> 00:06:04,520 Speaker 1: MAGA people aren't happy with him, but he does represent 101 00:06:04,560 --> 00:06:06,839 Speaker 1: the farmers, and he's doing some good things out there. 102 00:06:06,920 --> 00:06:10,160 Speaker 1: And Miller Meek's also trying to get this E fifteen approved, 103 00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:12,480 Speaker 1: which will help the farmers, the corn farmers, and the 104 00:06:12,520 --> 00:06:14,279 Speaker 1: people at the gas pump. It could be fifteen to 105 00:06:14,279 --> 00:06:16,480 Speaker 1: thirty cents cheaper. Now you can't use this fuel in 106 00:06:16,520 --> 00:06:19,000 Speaker 1: your lawnmower, but if you have a car made after 107 00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:21,640 Speaker 1: twenty twenty one, it could be very beneficial at the pump. 108 00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:24,440 Speaker 1: And most people lease their cars now, so it's like, 109 00:06:24,800 --> 00:06:26,000 Speaker 1: you know, it's not as bad. 110 00:06:26,040 --> 00:06:28,080 Speaker 2: You don't have to worry about guming up that engine 111 00:06:28,120 --> 00:06:28,920 Speaker 2: too much. Right. 112 00:06:29,720 --> 00:06:32,839 Speaker 1: But I got a great show for you today. We 113 00:06:32,960 --> 00:06:35,640 Speaker 1: got so many great guests from the Washington Examiner. I've 114 00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:39,400 Speaker 1: got Kaylin Deese from the DOJ reporter for the Washington Examiner. 115 00:06:39,400 --> 00:06:42,240 Speaker 1: I got Anajera Telly, she's a Homeland security reporter with 116 00:06:42,279 --> 00:06:44,960 Speaker 1: the Examiner. And then I got el todd Wood from 117 00:06:45,040 --> 00:06:48,360 Speaker 1: CDM Press working on a lot of Department of War issues, 118 00:06:48,960 --> 00:06:52,600 Speaker 1: really getting traction over there, explaining to the American people 119 00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:56,040 Speaker 1: that what Trump is doing, what the military is doing. 120 00:06:56,080 --> 00:06:58,320 Speaker 2: They got rid of the DEI stuff for now. 121 00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:02,320 Speaker 1: It seems like they're all in Unison and the branches 122 00:07:02,320 --> 00:07:05,200 Speaker 1: and my interview with the Space Commanding General Stephen Whiting, 123 00:07:05,279 --> 00:07:08,599 Speaker 1: four star general last week was just stellar n ee 124 00:07:08,600 --> 00:07:11,400 Speaker 1: opening because you know, we have threats in space hunter 125 00:07:11,480 --> 00:07:14,600 Speaker 1: killer satellites. The Russians may have a WMD in space, 126 00:07:14,680 --> 00:07:17,760 Speaker 1: the Chinese may have a terrestrial based laser weapon that 127 00:07:17,760 --> 00:07:21,679 Speaker 1: could be used, you know, against our satellites and lower orbit, 128 00:07:21,760 --> 00:07:24,280 Speaker 1: and we got to move everything up to geosynchronous levels. 129 00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:26,800 Speaker 2: It's go Mio and Leo. You know the lower orbit 130 00:07:26,840 --> 00:07:27,880 Speaker 2: stuff is vulnerable. 131 00:07:28,600 --> 00:07:30,960 Speaker 1: But right now I want to get to an interview 132 00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:34,000 Speaker 1: I did with the great men and women of the 133 00:07:34,120 --> 00:07:38,320 Speaker 1: US Space Force recruiting at spacecomm in Orlando, Florida from 134 00:07:38,400 --> 00:07:41,440 Speaker 1: last week. These guys assault of the Earth. I love 135 00:07:41,520 --> 00:07:45,280 Speaker 1: talking to them and watch this. Great men and women 136 00:07:45,400 --> 00:07:48,440 Speaker 1: of the US Space Force are here and we have 137 00:07:48,560 --> 00:07:50,720 Speaker 1: a tech Sergeant Travis Daud. 138 00:07:50,800 --> 00:07:53,240 Speaker 2: How are you, sir? I am great, good, great good. 139 00:07:53,520 --> 00:07:55,600 Speaker 2: How do you like SPACECMM twenty twenty six. 140 00:07:55,800 --> 00:07:59,720 Speaker 3: It's been a great experience meeting a lot of different people, 141 00:08:00,280 --> 00:08:02,360 Speaker 3: especially with the interest of what we're looking for when 142 00:08:02,400 --> 00:08:03,760 Speaker 3: it comes to Space Force recruiting. 143 00:08:04,040 --> 00:08:06,840 Speaker 1: So I interviewed the kids of the first Robotics competition. 144 00:08:06,840 --> 00:08:09,200 Speaker 1: They're like fourteen, they're like geniuses. You're get to head 145 00:08:09,200 --> 00:08:10,240 Speaker 1: over there and recruit them. 146 00:08:10,320 --> 00:08:12,120 Speaker 3: We have actually already talked to them. There are a 147 00:08:12,120 --> 00:08:14,600 Speaker 3: couple over there, cool seniors in high school. 148 00:08:14,800 --> 00:08:17,920 Speaker 1: Very cool. So tell us a little bit about Space Force. 149 00:08:17,960 --> 00:08:21,240 Speaker 1: I interviewed General Stephen Whiting, the head of US Space Command. Now, 150 00:08:21,280 --> 00:08:25,640 Speaker 1: Space Force is the personnel that gets used right in 151 00:08:25,680 --> 00:08:26,720 Speaker 1: the different branches. 152 00:08:27,320 --> 00:08:30,760 Speaker 3: Yes, so Space Force is obviously our newest branch, about 153 00:08:30,800 --> 00:08:31,840 Speaker 3: five years old. 154 00:08:32,320 --> 00:08:33,439 Speaker 4: It's on the. 155 00:08:33,400 --> 00:08:36,640 Speaker 3: Way of changing what we see today when it comes 156 00:08:36,679 --> 00:08:41,400 Speaker 3: to military operations. They are controlling everything from our satellites 157 00:08:41,440 --> 00:08:46,800 Speaker 3: in space to engineering them and protecting our access to 158 00:08:46,880 --> 00:08:48,520 Speaker 3: space and our assets that. 159 00:08:48,480 --> 00:08:49,760 Speaker 2: We have really critical. Now. 160 00:08:49,880 --> 00:08:52,920 Speaker 1: It seems like maybe ten fifteen years ago the threats 161 00:08:52,960 --> 00:08:54,200 Speaker 1: weren't as real as today. 162 00:08:55,040 --> 00:08:56,120 Speaker 2: China maybe as. 163 00:08:55,920 --> 00:08:59,960 Speaker 1: The terrestrials based laser that can hit our lower orbits 164 00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:04,440 Speaker 1: stuff we've got, maybe hunter killer satellites and can dismantle 165 00:09:04,520 --> 00:09:07,520 Speaker 1: satellites up there. Maybe Russia has a WMD that can 166 00:09:07,600 --> 00:09:11,200 Speaker 1: knock down our stuff. So what's the role of space 167 00:09:11,240 --> 00:09:14,160 Speaker 1: for us? What kind of training do your troops get? 168 00:09:14,559 --> 00:09:16,679 Speaker 3: So a lot of the training is based around cyber 169 00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:21,240 Speaker 3: intelligence and space operations, the cyber career fields or anything 170 00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:24,600 Speaker 3: from you know, making sure our satellites are good to 171 00:09:24,640 --> 00:09:28,400 Speaker 3: go and doing what is necessary to defend our nation. 172 00:09:28,920 --> 00:09:32,600 Speaker 3: The intelligence is gathering intel to make sure we know 173 00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:36,120 Speaker 3: where specific satellites are, where our satellites are and getting 174 00:09:36,160 --> 00:09:37,840 Speaker 3: information to the correct people. 175 00:09:37,840 --> 00:09:38,840 Speaker 2: And space for us. 176 00:09:39,000 --> 00:09:44,439 Speaker 1: You've played roles in other things like Maduro in Venezuela 177 00:09:44,600 --> 00:09:48,440 Speaker 1: or the Iran bombing and other things.

He's on the ground, he's in DC, 228 00:12:35,400 --> 00:12:39,400 Speaker 1: he's following issues all over the country for DOJ, and 229 00:12:39,480 --> 00:12:43,920 Speaker 1: he is the DOJ reporter for the Washington Examiner. 230 00:12:43,960 --> 00:12:47,840 Speaker 4: That's correct, Kaylin, Yes, sir, thanks for having me on. 231 00:12:48,240 --> 00:12:52,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, Kaylin, DCEE. Everybody a lot happening across the country. 232 00:12:53,600 --> 00:12:57,600 Speaker 1: Why don't we start uh with the this extraordinary thing 233 00:12:57,800 --> 00:13:02,320 Speaker 1: that's transpired with the raid in Fulton County, Georgia. Is 234 00:13:02,320 --> 00:13:04,599 Speaker 1: there going to be accountability for what Fanny Willis and 235 00:13:04,679 --> 00:13:05,720 Speaker 1: everybody did down there? 236 00:13:05,760 --> 00:13:10,880 Speaker 7: Finally, I think if you pay attention to what the 237 00:13:10,960 --> 00:13:13,640 Speaker 7: tone was like during the raid from the Fulton County 238 00:13:13,640 --> 00:13:17,600 Speaker 7: officials who were there on site watching the FBI taking 239 00:13:17,640 --> 00:13:21,599 Speaker 7: out droves of boxes and looking at ballot machines, it 240 00:13:21,760 --> 00:13:24,400 Speaker 7: sounded like a funeral from their perspective, And I think 241 00:13:24,440 --> 00:13:27,440 Speaker 7: that it kind of gives a little bit of that 242 00:13:27,679 --> 00:13:31,080 Speaker 7: tone indication that the officials over. 243 00:13:30,880 --> 00:13:33,600 Speaker 4: There are quite alarmed by this. 244 00:13:34,120 --> 00:13:37,880 Speaker 7: They're of course hedging it as a threat to their democracy. 245 00:13:38,400 --> 00:13:40,920 Speaker 7: But you know, someone once told me, actually someone who 246 00:13:40,920 --> 00:13:45,240 Speaker 7: works within Fulton County said, you know, never chalk up 247 00:13:46,480 --> 00:13:52,080 Speaker 7: nefariousness to what could otherwise be ascribed to incompetence. But 248 00:13:52,600 --> 00:13:56,040 Speaker 7: you know, and either regard, it's a terrible atrocity what's 249 00:13:56,080 --> 00:13:58,320 Speaker 7: taken place in Fulton County with the management of the 250 00:13:58,320 --> 00:13:59,280 Speaker 7: election systems there. 251 00:13:59,280 --> 00:14:00,880 Speaker 4: We found out in December. 252 00:14:00,960 --> 00:14:05,440 Speaker 7: There was that issue you with the ballot receipts that 253 00:14:05,520 --> 00:14:09,640 Speaker 7: were taking account of or and you know, obviously there 254 00:14:09,679 --> 00:14:14,040 Speaker 7: was no signatures that were found on those tabulator receipts, 255 00:14:14,520 --> 00:14:17,760 Speaker 7: and the problem with that is that those receipts accounted 256 00:14:17,800 --> 00:14:20,920 Speaker 7: for three hundred and fifteen thousand ballots. Right now, the 257 00:14:21,160 --> 00:14:23,400 Speaker 7: county is staring down the barrel of upwards of a 258 00:14:23,440 --> 00:14:27,560 Speaker 7: million dollars in fines for that error that they did. 259 00:14:27,600 --> 00:14:29,440 Speaker 4: And that's just really the tip of the iceberg. 260 00:14:29,840 --> 00:14:32,200 Speaker 7: I mean, there's a real reason why the FBI would 261 00:14:32,280 --> 00:14:34,600 Speaker 7: want to do something like this, and it kind of goes, 262 00:14:35,280 --> 00:14:38,400 Speaker 7: you know, back to what the DOJ's broader effort has 263 00:14:38,440 --> 00:14:42,280 Speaker 7: been over the past year, dating back into twenty twenty five, 264 00:14:43,400 --> 00:14:47,080 Speaker 7: just how much they're focused right now on getting an 265 00:14:47,120 --> 00:14:50,640 Speaker 7: account of this election information that's coming. 266 00:14:51,640 --> 00:14:55,360 Speaker 4: You know, voter roll records, things like that that they're 267 00:14:55,360 --> 00:14:55,960 Speaker 4: trying to get from. 268 00:14:55,960 --> 00:14:59,120 Speaker 7: Some of these were calcil trant Democratic states, but the 269 00:14:59,120 --> 00:15:01,800 Speaker 7: Faulton County raid was definitely perhaps the tip of the iceberg. 270 00:15:02,680 --> 00:15:05,440 Speaker 7: I'm not saying no to potentially other raids that could 271 00:15:05,440 --> 00:15:06,520 Speaker 7: come down the pike as well. 272 00:15:07,240 --> 00:15:09,560 Speaker 1: Now Fulton County as of a few hours ago, was 273 00:15:09,600 --> 00:15:15,200 Speaker 1: demanding those documents back. What what is the potential outcome here? 274 00:15:15,240 --> 00:15:20,760 Speaker 1: Does this vindicate anybody like Juliani or anybody does it? 275 00:15:20,960 --> 00:15:21,000 Speaker 6: What? 276 00:15:21,200 --> 00:15:22,760 Speaker 2: What what can come out of this? 277 00:15:24,920 --> 00:15:26,840 Speaker 7: So it really is one of those things where we're 278 00:15:26,880 --> 00:15:29,560 Speaker 7: not quite sure about the implications as far as like 279 00:15:29,680 --> 00:15:33,720 Speaker 7: some of the folks that were dragged into those terrible 280 00:15:33,840 --> 00:15:38,479 Speaker 7: law fair suits such as Giuliani, which you know, fortunately 281 00:15:38,520 --> 00:15:40,840 Speaker 7: it seems like things are sort of on the up 282 00:15:40,840 --> 00:15:42,680 Speaker 7: and up with that, but he's still you know, has 283 00:15:42,720 --> 00:15:48,280 Speaker 7: suffered terrible you know, having having his name dragged through, uh, 284 00:15:48,520 --> 00:15:51,480 Speaker 7: you know, the press headlines and things like that, all 285 00:15:51,520 --> 00:15:54,200 Speaker 7: over concerns that seemed to be almost vindicated at this 286 00:15:54,280 --> 00:15:56,560 Speaker 7: point just on the basis of there being a need 287 00:15:56,600 --> 00:15:59,680 Speaker 7: for the FBI rate. I mean, a court approved this 288 00:15:59,840 --> 00:16:03,440 Speaker 7: rain aid, uh, and now we're looking at potentially there 289 00:16:03,480 --> 00:16:07,560 Speaker 7: being hearings in the future that the county is trying 290 00:16:07,640 --> 00:16:11,560 Speaker 7: to ask a judge for this material back. So that's 291 00:16:11,600 --> 00:16:14,880 Speaker 7: sort of the next juncture that we're at. But I mean, 292 00:16:14,960 --> 00:16:16,680 Speaker 7: and and and and the way that it you know, 293 00:16:16,800 --> 00:16:19,680 Speaker 7: sort of you know, relates to all the other matters 294 00:16:19,680 --> 00:16:21,520 Speaker 7: that you just referenced, I mean, I think it definitely 295 00:16:21,560 --> 00:16:27,040 Speaker 7: is beginning to show that anyone who was essentially mocking 296 00:16:27,200 --> 00:16:30,440 Speaker 7: or you know, taking people to the court for every 297 00:16:30,520 --> 00:16:33,640 Speaker 7: opinion that they that they own, such as Giuliani's case, 298 00:16:33,680 --> 00:16:37,520 Speaker 7: I think that it's showing that those people were you know, 299 00:16:37,760 --> 00:16:41,000 Speaker 7: rather rather than you know, looking in their own backyard 300 00:16:42,160 --> 00:16:44,800 Speaker 7: trying to you know, point the finger and trying to 301 00:16:44,840 --> 00:16:47,880 Speaker 7: distract from what is actually going on on the ground 302 00:16:47,920 --> 00:16:48,880 Speaker 7: in Fulton County. 303 00:16:49,040 --> 00:16:50,880 Speaker 2: This information collected by d o J. 304 00:16:51,080 --> 00:16:53,440 Speaker 1: What would it go before grand jury and there would 305 00:16:53,440 --> 00:16:55,960 Speaker 1: be a decision to indict if they can get a majority. 306 00:16:56,040 --> 00:16:57,800 Speaker 2: Is that what happens in the federal. 307 00:16:57,480 --> 00:17:02,840 Speaker 7: Side, Yeah, exactly, this this information is being collected here 308 00:17:02,960 --> 00:17:06,719 Speaker 7: for the purpose of a potential criminal investigation. 309 00:17:06,880 --> 00:17:09,160 Speaker 4: We don't know yet if there uh you know. 310 00:17:09,320 --> 00:17:12,480 Speaker 7: Is going to be criminal indictments, but there is certainly 311 00:17:12,480 --> 00:17:15,720 Speaker 7: a lens that this is being looked into for potential 312 00:17:15,760 --> 00:17:19,560 Speaker 7: criminal violations. But you're precisely right about this. There would 313 00:17:19,600 --> 00:17:22,520 Speaker 7: be evidence that gets presented. 314 00:17:22,359 --> 00:17:23,280 Speaker 4: To a grand jury. 315 00:17:23,320 --> 00:17:26,359 Speaker 7: The FBI would pass along the evidence that they find 316 00:17:26,400 --> 00:17:30,720 Speaker 7: relevant to the attorneys, the prosecutors, and they would be 317 00:17:30,880 --> 00:17:34,400 Speaker 7: the ones charged with making a presentation to a grand 318 00:17:34,440 --> 00:17:39,040 Speaker 7: jury they're uh in federal court, and they would then 319 00:17:39,119 --> 00:17:41,640 Speaker 7: have to decide, if you know, a grandeury would decide 320 00:17:41,640 --> 00:17:44,640 Speaker 7: if there's anything to prosecute. As far as what could 321 00:17:44,640 --> 00:17:47,000 Speaker 7: actually you know, be prosecuted on this, I mean, I 322 00:17:47,040 --> 00:17:52,240 Speaker 7: think that there's definitely chances for potential uh, you know, 323 00:17:52,480 --> 00:17:56,399 Speaker 7: I think as far as conspiracy against rights of voters. Uh, 324 00:17:56,520 --> 00:17:59,239 Speaker 7: you know that's not been you know, put forth by 325 00:17:59,240 --> 00:18:03,439 Speaker 7: the Trump administry. But just looking at the basis of this, 326 00:18:03,520 --> 00:18:05,119 Speaker 7: I mean, I think that when you were talking about 327 00:18:06,040 --> 00:18:10,800 Speaker 7: ballots that were signed off on, ballots that were still counted, 328 00:18:10,880 --> 00:18:13,720 Speaker 7: yet there wasn't any actual signature of verification of someone 329 00:18:13,760 --> 00:18:16,120 Speaker 7: that took account for those and you have the Secretary 330 00:18:16,160 --> 00:18:18,399 Speaker 7: of States saying that that was all fine and dandy. 331 00:18:18,440 --> 00:18:21,240 Speaker 7: I think that there's a bit of a need for 332 00:18:21,560 --> 00:18:25,080 Speaker 7: a magnifying glass on that particular claim, and I think 333 00:18:25,119 --> 00:18:28,359 Speaker 7: that that's potentially where some of this is focused on. 334 00:18:28,960 --> 00:18:33,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, and Rasenberg are running for governor, right, so we'll 335 00:18:33,520 --> 00:18:38,080 Speaker 1: see what happens with that. Let's shift gears to Minneapolis. 336 00:18:38,560 --> 00:18:40,680 Speaker 1: Tell us about what's going on on the ground over there. 337 00:18:42,520 --> 00:18:45,920 Speaker 7: Yeah, so we saw today that decision that was made 338 00:18:45,920 --> 00:18:50,119 Speaker 7: and announced by the borders are Tom Homan sort of 339 00:18:50,920 --> 00:18:54,439 Speaker 7: winding back around seven hundred personnel immigration personnel on the ground. 340 00:18:55,560 --> 00:18:58,840 Speaker 7: But the look that I've been taking on Minneapolis is 341 00:18:58,880 --> 00:19:01,480 Speaker 7: a little bit more focused on what's going on in 342 00:19:01,760 --> 00:19:03,440 Speaker 7: the US Attorney's office there. 343 00:19:04,760 --> 00:19:06,720 Speaker 4: Part of my investigation has. 344 00:19:06,600 --> 00:19:09,879 Speaker 7: Been you know, looking and seeing, you know, what at 345 00:19:09,920 --> 00:19:12,720 Speaker 7: all is the US Attorney's office doing with this ground 346 00:19:12,800 --> 00:19:17,119 Speaker 7: baking breaking amount of fraud allegations that sort of tipped 347 00:19:17,119 --> 00:19:22,280 Speaker 7: off the Minnesota becoming a national news story, and also 348 00:19:22,840 --> 00:19:27,280 Speaker 7: what is taking place currently with ongoing fraud investigations. 349 00:19:28,160 --> 00:19:30,120 Speaker 4: The gist of this is that there's. 350 00:19:29,960 --> 00:19:34,040 Speaker 7: A bit of a dilemma right now with certain prosecutors, 351 00:19:34,960 --> 00:19:36,840 Speaker 7: some of them who have been there for a long time. 352 00:19:38,200 --> 00:19:40,800 Speaker 4: Taking a bow out leaving the office. 353 00:19:41,160 --> 00:19:44,919 Speaker 7: We saw that earlier last month with one of the 354 00:19:45,040 --> 00:19:50,080 Speaker 7: lead prosecutors that was that just announced a recent fraud 355 00:19:51,280 --> 00:19:59,639 Speaker 7: indictment in December that involved Medicare fraud. That individual is 356 00:19:59,680 --> 00:20:02,640 Speaker 7: no longer or with the US Attorney's office, and we're 357 00:20:02,680 --> 00:20:06,480 Speaker 7: also seeing reports this week about additional departures. One of 358 00:20:06,560 --> 00:20:09,320 Speaker 7: the things that really sort of gives you an idea 359 00:20:09,440 --> 00:20:13,399 Speaker 7: of how dire the situation is is that the last 360 00:20:13,400 --> 00:20:16,159 Speaker 7: I reported, which was this report that came out on Monday, 361 00:20:16,880 --> 00:20:20,760 Speaker 7: there was not a public information officer even stationed at 362 00:20:22,040 --> 00:20:25,720 Speaker 7: that US Attorney's office. And that's a problem for us 363 00:20:25,800 --> 00:20:28,760 Speaker 7: because we can't get all the information that we need 364 00:20:28,800 --> 00:20:31,560 Speaker 7: about you know, simple questions like you know, what is 365 00:20:31,680 --> 00:20:34,840 Speaker 7: your OL's office doing with some of these fraud investigations. 366 00:20:34,880 --> 00:20:36,320 Speaker 4: So if anyone has a question. 367 00:20:36,119 --> 00:20:39,000 Speaker 7: Right now about why there hasn't been any new fraud 368 00:20:39,480 --> 00:20:43,159 Speaker 7: major fraud busts coming, part of it is that fraud 369 00:20:43,160 --> 00:20:47,080 Speaker 7: cases typically take a longer time to investigate before any 370 00:20:47,160 --> 00:20:48,119 Speaker 7: charges are announced. 371 00:20:48,280 --> 00:20:50,120 Speaker 4: That's a normal sort of course of action. 372 00:20:50,200 --> 00:20:52,359 Speaker 7: But the other thing is is that there might be 373 00:20:52,680 --> 00:20:55,160 Speaker 7: at least in the interim, a bit of a hold 374 00:20:55,240 --> 00:20:59,160 Speaker 7: up on being able to run some of these investigations 375 00:20:59,160 --> 00:21:03,440 Speaker 7: out of the office simply due to personnel losses. And 376 00:21:03,800 --> 00:21:06,920 Speaker 7: that's not that's not a good thing across the board. 377 00:21:07,240 --> 00:21:09,320 Speaker 7: So the d j uh, you know, I think is 378 00:21:09,400 --> 00:21:13,240 Speaker 7: you know, doing everything that they can. They just announced, uh, 379 00:21:13,560 --> 00:21:16,520 Speaker 7: you know, this this new appointment, this sort of overarching 380 00:21:16,600 --> 00:21:20,000 Speaker 7: you know, fraud attorney that's going to be handling uh, 381 00:21:20,280 --> 00:21:22,359 Speaker 7: you know, fraud matters on a national level. 382 00:21:22,680 --> 00:21:23,639 Speaker 4: Uh, last week. 383 00:21:24,480 --> 00:21:27,520 Speaker 7: But that doesn't really that's that's that's just sort of 384 00:21:27,560 --> 00:21:30,560 Speaker 7: you know, addressing the issue that we are going to 385 00:21:30,600 --> 00:21:33,960 Speaker 7: be tackling fraud on a national level. That's that's that's 386 00:21:34,040 --> 00:21:37,520 Speaker 7: that's a promising sign. But if the local offices are 387 00:21:37,600 --> 00:21:40,600 Speaker 7: lacking personnel, that's definitely a negative sign and they need 388 00:21:40,640 --> 00:21:43,520 Speaker 7: to be uh, you know, dragging all resources that they 389 00:21:43,560 --> 00:21:45,280 Speaker 7: can to, you know, fill these spots, even if they're 390 00:21:45,320 --> 00:21:48,679 Speaker 7: on a temporary basis, you know, even maybe assigning some 391 00:21:48,800 --> 00:21:52,159 Speaker 7: attorneys from the DC main Office UH to come in 392 00:21:52,200 --> 00:21:54,560 Speaker 7: and and and handle some of these cases or else 393 00:21:54,600 --> 00:21:56,240 Speaker 7: we could see some delays happening. 394 00:21:56,440 --> 00:22:00,720 Speaker 1: What you are referring to Julia Lee who who left, 395 00:22:00,760 --> 00:22:05,520 Speaker 1: She was a government attorney representing DJ she's no longer there. 396 00:22:05,560 --> 00:22:09,000 Speaker 1: She was complaining how tough it was to get information 397 00:22:09,160 --> 00:22:12,680 Speaker 1: from various agencies and told the judge, I need put 398 00:22:12,680 --> 00:22:14,560 Speaker 1: me in contempt so I can get twenty four hours 399 00:22:14,600 --> 00:22:15,040 Speaker 1: of sleep. 400 00:22:16,520 --> 00:22:19,160 Speaker 7: That's that's the thing, David is I wasn't even talking 401 00:22:19,160 --> 00:22:23,280 Speaker 7: about the Julie Lee situation, but that's a completely separate matter. 402 00:22:23,560 --> 00:22:28,560 Speaker 7: And definitely her comments I would I would say, are. 403 00:22:30,160 --> 00:22:32,440 Speaker 4: You can't describe him as anything beyond just bizarre. 404 00:22:32,480 --> 00:22:34,919 Speaker 7: I mean, I think that in a lot of ways, 405 00:22:36,480 --> 00:22:41,600 Speaker 7: those types of comments are not reflecting in a good 406 00:22:41,600 --> 00:22:43,399 Speaker 7: way back on the administration. But I don't think that 407 00:22:43,400 --> 00:22:46,919 Speaker 7: that's the administration's fault. That's an individual person's fault. And 408 00:22:46,960 --> 00:22:51,200 Speaker 7: that also pertained to a case I believe it was involving, 409 00:22:51,720 --> 00:22:55,280 Speaker 7: you know, one of these immigration related matters. So yeah, 410 00:22:55,320 --> 00:22:57,960 Speaker 7: that's that's the thing is like on the ground, the 411 00:22:59,040 --> 00:23:02,760 Speaker 7: biggest I think take away what the you know, the 412 00:23:02,800 --> 00:23:07,560 Speaker 7: administration has been doing is working on these immigration related cases, 413 00:23:07,560 --> 00:23:10,280 Speaker 7: getting people off the streets who are legally in the country. 414 00:23:10,560 --> 00:23:12,560 Speaker 4: But the with the backstop. 415 00:23:12,040 --> 00:23:15,560 Speaker 7: On that is you have this Chief Judge Shiltz who 416 00:23:15,880 --> 00:23:19,320 Speaker 7: for whatever reason, decided to go and compile what I 417 00:23:19,359 --> 00:23:24,000 Speaker 7: would kind of call sort of a propagandistic representations charting 418 00:23:24,000 --> 00:23:27,800 Speaker 7: out all these different you know cases where he was saying, 419 00:23:28,200 --> 00:23:31,480 Speaker 7: this is where the administration violated court orders, and there's 420 00:23:31,520 --> 00:23:33,840 Speaker 7: no evidence that they actually violated the court orders. 421 00:23:33,880 --> 00:23:35,359 Speaker 4: It's just this judge's perspective. 422 00:23:35,560 --> 00:23:39,200 Speaker 1: Kaylin, where out of time ten seconds?

You know, he mentioned the frangible ammunition. He 460 00:25:57,800 --> 00:26:02,080 Speaker 8: mentioned drone cases that were very easily carried to the 461 00:26:02,119 --> 00:26:05,160 Speaker 8: front by the troops. So I was pleasantly surprised. 462 00:26:05,160 --> 00:26:08,040 Speaker 1: What about you, Yeah, I put that on my show 463 00:26:08,119 --> 00:26:12,600 Speaker 1: last week when the Dragon's lair, members of airborne, anyone 464 00:26:12,640 --> 00:26:14,760 Speaker 1: can come up with ideas. They sat in the room 465 00:26:14,840 --> 00:26:17,560 Speaker 1: they figured out instead of having this big drone case, 466 00:26:18,600 --> 00:26:20,480 Speaker 1: you know, thrown out of the back of a C 467 00:26:20,680 --> 00:26:24,080 Speaker 1: one thirty or whatever, these guys would parachute in with 468 00:26:24,160 --> 00:26:27,520 Speaker 1: this kit they had designed by private industry that fits 469 00:26:27,560 --> 00:26:30,840 Speaker 1: the drone right attached to their gear, given them the 470 00:26:30,880 --> 00:26:34,440 Speaker 1: initiative on the ground over the enemy in combat. 471 00:26:34,520 --> 00:26:34,720 Speaker 2: Right. 472 00:26:36,320 --> 00:26:38,920 Speaker 8: Well, you know we're getting a lot, but yes, we're 473 00:26:38,920 --> 00:26:44,760 Speaker 8: getting a lot of tactics and innovation and just ingenuity 474 00:26:44,800 --> 00:26:48,520 Speaker 8: coming out of the Eastern Front in dombas in Ukraine, 475 00:26:48,720 --> 00:26:53,520 Speaker 8: from netting to protect against first person drones, to all 476 00:26:53,600 --> 00:26:55,480 Speaker 8: kinds of different ways to try to shoot them down, 477 00:26:56,160 --> 00:26:59,720 Speaker 8: to protection to we've seen a lot of thermal gear 478 00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:02,080 Speaker 8: protect your you know, your heat signatures so you can 479 00:27:02,119 --> 00:27:04,800 Speaker 8: move around on the battlefield without being seen, because that's 480 00:27:04,840 --> 00:27:07,600 Speaker 8: what happens. Right once they spotch you, you're almost dead. 481 00:27:08,040 --> 00:27:12,280 Speaker 8: So it's it's it's critical to stay concealed and be 482 00:27:12,320 --> 00:27:14,320 Speaker 8: able to move.

A lot going on. 668 00:36:42,600 --> 00:36:45,440 Speaker 1: I've been traveling crisscross in the Midwest and the South, 669 00:36:45,560 --> 00:36:49,240 Speaker 1: and you know, a lot of exciting things going on. 670 00:36:49,239 --> 00:36:52,400 Speaker 1: One thing I saw was Christine Noms was in Nogalas. 671 00:36:53,520 --> 00:36:54,960 Speaker 1: Did you get to participate in that? 672 00:36:56,600 --> 00:36:57,040 Speaker 7: She was? 673 00:36:57,120 --> 00:37:01,359 Speaker 10: She was there today with other border officials, the head 674 00:37:01,360 --> 00:37:03,840 Speaker 10: of ICE, the head of Customs and Border Protection, the 675 00:37:03,880 --> 00:37:07,000 Speaker 10: head of Border Patrol. And what I'm told is it 676 00:37:07,120 --> 00:37:12,200 Speaker 10: was a unity tour to look united as a united 677 00:37:12,239 --> 00:37:16,720 Speaker 10: front for DHS, given the reports that the Washington Examiner 678 00:37:16,800 --> 00:37:20,960 Speaker 10: and others have been leading about infighting within DHS with 679 00:37:21,239 --> 00:37:23,040 Speaker 10: career law enforcement officials. 680 00:37:23,040 --> 00:37:25,000 Speaker 9: But I was not there on the ground. I just 681 00:37:25,040 --> 00:37:26,279 Speaker 9: got back from Minneapolis. 682 00:37:26,719 --> 00:37:30,759 Speaker 1: I understand that because of Tom Holman's efforts and a 683 00:37:30,760 --> 00:37:34,640 Speaker 1: little bit different strategy. You know, as much as you 684 00:37:34,680 --> 00:37:38,120 Speaker 1: can get out of some of these blue city, blue 685 00:37:38,160 --> 00:37:42,520 Speaker 1: governor type situations, that they're making progress around the country. 686 00:37:42,880 --> 00:37:46,239 Speaker 1: There's something like, I think like seventy new cities that 687 00:37:46,640 --> 00:37:49,960 Speaker 1: have agreed because the big problem is they're not holding 688 00:37:50,040 --> 00:37:52,120 Speaker 1: these criminals when they commit a crime. They're letting them 689 00:37:52,120 --> 00:37:54,719 Speaker 1: out the back door or giving them lower charges, and 690 00:37:54,760 --> 00:37:57,040 Speaker 1: they're creating this situation where ICE has to go into 691 00:37:57,080 --> 00:37:59,480 Speaker 1: the neighborhoods to look for these people when they could 692 00:37:59,520 --> 00:38:02,279 Speaker 1: have just picked them up in the naval, at the 693 00:38:02,320 --> 00:38:04,240 Speaker 1: precinct or at the county jail. 694 00:38:04,719 --> 00:38:07,000 Speaker 2: Right have you seen that increased cooperation? 695 00:38:08,640 --> 00:38:11,800 Speaker 10: You know, I could speak to Minneapolis and we're certainly seeing, 696 00:38:11,960 --> 00:38:14,680 Speaker 10: according to the administration, a lot of progress there, and 697 00:38:14,719 --> 00:38:15,680 Speaker 10: that was something that. 698 00:38:16,360 --> 00:38:18,839 Speaker 9: The borders are Tom Hoeman had said from the. 699 00:38:18,880 --> 00:38:21,560 Speaker 10: Very beginning, if you had just let us in the 700 00:38:21,640 --> 00:38:24,520 Speaker 10: county jails, let us in the state prisons, and we 701 00:38:24,560 --> 00:38:27,919 Speaker 10: could apprehend people once their sentences are served or once 702 00:38:27,960 --> 00:38:29,960 Speaker 10: they make bail, then we don't need to go out 703 00:38:30,000 --> 00:38:32,880 Speaker 10: into the communities. And so mister Homan has had the 704 00:38:32,960 --> 00:38:36,680 Speaker 10: same message from several weeks ago before he was the 705 00:38:37,680 --> 00:38:41,239 Speaker 10: one overseeing this operation in Minneapolis now and he said 706 00:38:41,239 --> 00:38:46,160 Speaker 10: today that we're seeing unprecedented cooperation from counties and they're 707 00:38:46,200 --> 00:38:49,240 Speaker 10: going to be reducing seven hundred border patrol and ice 708 00:38:49,280 --> 00:38:52,680 Speaker 10: pulling them away from Minneapolis today. So there's still a 709 00:38:52,719 --> 00:38:56,080 Speaker 10: little over two thousand there. But it doesn't look like 710 00:38:56,160 --> 00:38:58,919 Speaker 10: Minneapolis is about to be cleared up just yet. 711 00:38:59,040 --> 00:38:59,319 Speaker 2: I know. 712 00:38:59,760 --> 00:39:03,440 Speaker 10: My my colleague just reported today Mia capitled at a. 713 00:39:03,560 --> 00:39:06,800 Speaker 9: Thousand roadblocks checkpoints. 714 00:39:06,239 --> 00:39:10,320 Speaker 10: By citizens ard why did these set up in Minneapolis 715 00:39:10,360 --> 00:39:14,320 Speaker 10: allegedly in the coming weeks. So it's they're doubling down 716 00:39:15,160 --> 00:39:17,759 Speaker 10: as the federal government is sort of loosening up and 717 00:39:17,760 --> 00:39:18,839 Speaker 10: saying we're getting. 718 00:39:18,520 --> 00:39:19,040 Speaker 9: What we want. 719 00:39:19,239 --> 00:39:20,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, they're disgusting. 720 00:39:20,640 --> 00:39:23,960 Speaker 1: They're calling black ICE offices the N word, you know, 721 00:39:24,120 --> 00:39:25,880 Speaker 1: and it's like so crazy. I saw that in the 722 00:39:25,920 --> 00:39:28,920 Speaker 1: ICE protest in the city last year. I got knocked 723 00:39:28,920 --> 00:39:30,680 Speaker 1: around a little bit over there. I was in the 724 00:39:30,719 --> 00:39:35,920 Speaker 1: mix because there was all these like spoiled excuse you know, 725 00:39:36,520 --> 00:39:40,560 Speaker 1: you're you're a great woman, but there were all these 726 00:39:40,600 --> 00:39:44,160 Speaker 1: like spoiled women who came out of the McMansions and 727 00:39:44,160 --> 00:39:46,880 Speaker 1: went to a liberal college, and now they're protesting, wearing 728 00:39:46,880 --> 00:39:50,800 Speaker 1: the shmata in the street like Arafat, you know, protesting Ice. 729 00:39:50,840 --> 00:39:54,400 Speaker 1: But there were no Hispanics protesting ICE. And then they 730 00:39:54,440 --> 00:39:56,600 Speaker 1: were like these you know, young guys who are really 731 00:39:56,600 --> 00:40:01,080 Speaker 1: aggressive in the protests and the police off their gloves 732 00:40:01,080 --> 00:40:03,160 Speaker 1: with them and they were able to do it. But 733 00:40:03,200 --> 00:40:06,560 Speaker 1: the protesters were calling the cops, who are like three 734 00:40:06,640 --> 00:40:11,080 Speaker 1: quarters of Indian, Chinese, Mexican black women, they weren't all 735 00:40:11,120 --> 00:40:13,439 Speaker 1: these white guys, and they're calling them the N word 736 00:40:13,480 --> 00:40:15,560 Speaker 1: in the street. It's just so disgusting. I just wanted 737 00:40:15,560 --> 00:40:19,120 Speaker 1: to point that out. So tell us, tell what's the latest. 738 00:40:19,120 --> 00:40:19,440 Speaker 2: Anna. 739 00:40:19,800 --> 00:40:22,720 Speaker 10: Yeah, I was gonna say sixty percent of border patrol 740 00:40:23,280 --> 00:40:27,439 Speaker 10: are Hispanic and most of them do are recruited from 741 00:40:27,480 --> 00:40:32,480 Speaker 10: border communities, So it is not you know, it's it's 742 00:40:32,560 --> 00:40:35,000 Speaker 10: very different than I think the public sometimes is even 743 00:40:35,040 --> 00:40:39,880 Speaker 10: aware of. But certainly the situation in Minneapolis is getting 744 00:40:39,960 --> 00:40:43,000 Speaker 10: I think better, getting better results. Now. 745 00:40:43,000 --> 00:40:44,920 Speaker 9: What Tom Homan has said is that. 746 00:40:45,080 --> 00:40:48,560 Speaker 10: We're going to be going after specific targets, which under 747 00:40:48,600 --> 00:40:52,200 Speaker 10: Greg Bovino they were sometimes just going out large, sometimes 748 00:40:52,200 --> 00:40:54,560 Speaker 10: going into a home depot, parking lot and asking people 749 00:40:54,560 --> 00:40:55,680 Speaker 10: for papers. 750 00:40:55,719 --> 00:40:57,920 Speaker 9: And that causes a lot of fear in the community. 751 00:40:58,000 --> 00:41:01,359 Speaker 10: And not that that's not what DHS wanted to do, 752 00:41:01,880 --> 00:41:04,640 Speaker 10: but there's a better way to do it, Tom Holman said, 753 00:41:04,680 --> 00:41:08,200 Speaker 10: And so they're going after specific individuals, hoping making at 754 00:41:08,239 --> 00:41:11,000 Speaker 10: them in jails, if not, then going into the community. 755 00:41:11,040 --> 00:41:13,240 Speaker 10: And he said, we're still going to make collateral arrests. 756 00:41:13,320 --> 00:41:15,279 Speaker 10: So if we go into a home to find a 757 00:41:15,320 --> 00:41:18,600 Speaker 10: specific individual, there's other people there, we're going to look 758 00:41:18,600 --> 00:41:21,160 Speaker 10: at their immigration papers, and if we have to enforce 759 00:41:21,160 --> 00:41:24,600 Speaker 10: immigration laws, then we're going to. But we're not going 760 00:41:24,640 --> 00:41:27,880 Speaker 10: to be seeing what was what is so often mischaracterized 761 00:41:27,920 --> 00:41:31,000 Speaker 10: by other media, as you know, ice just walking through 762 00:41:31,000 --> 00:41:34,080 Speaker 10: the streets and grabbing people they know who they're going after. 763 00:41:34,239 --> 00:41:37,439 Speaker 10: Ice is always stuck to looking for specific individuals. It's 764 00:41:37,440 --> 00:41:41,560 Speaker 10: border patrol that was a little more liberal in. 765 00:41:41,400 --> 00:41:43,520 Speaker 9: How they were arresting people and finding people. 766 00:41:43,640 --> 00:41:45,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, there's two things I wanted to point out. This 767 00:41:46,040 --> 00:41:49,799 Speaker 1: stupid movie, one battle after another was so brutal. It 768 00:41:49,920 --> 00:41:51,880 Speaker 1: was like it's like they made like all the border 769 00:41:51,920 --> 00:41:54,880 Speaker 1: patrol like these white men, the all white men, and 770 00:41:54,920 --> 00:41:56,959 Speaker 1: they're all racist. And I was down on the border. 771 00:41:57,040 --> 00:42:00,120 Speaker 1: Sixty percent were women and Hispanic, you know, right, So 772 00:42:00,239 --> 00:42:02,759 Speaker 1: the whole thing is bs. But you know, we have 773 00:42:02,800 --> 00:42:04,960 Speaker 1: a situation like on Long Island. I'm a builder on 774 00:42:05,000 --> 00:42:07,839 Speaker 1: Long Island.
