your support. So the Robed Resistance, the Robed Resistance. I

10
00:00:35,520 --> 00:00:43,000
was happy to see Politico actually acknowledged that this is

11
00:00:43,079 --> 00:00:46,759
a real thing, that this is occurring. Not that I

12
00:00:46,799 --> 00:00:51,960
needed Politico to affirm my observation, but considering what we

13
00:00:52,000 --> 00:00:55,679
heard at the White House Correspondence Association gala the other

14
00:00:55,799 --> 00:01:01,560
night about how media needs to admit if they've made mistakes,

15
00:01:01,640 --> 00:01:04,680
and they gave an award to Alex Thompson because he

16
00:01:04,879 --> 00:01:08,159
alone was the only reporter who could determine that Joe

17
00:01:08,159 --> 00:01:12,000
Biden maybe slipping a little bit, and he did the

18
00:01:12,040 --> 00:01:15,480
story before anybody else months after the election and the coup.

19
00:01:15,680 --> 00:01:20,439
But I just feel like it's good to acknowledge when

20
00:01:20,519 --> 00:01:24,000
somebody in a legacy or mainstream media outlet like this

21
00:01:24,159 --> 00:01:29,680
that covers the White House, covers politics, that they that

22
00:01:29,719 --> 00:01:32,879
they recognize the thing that is obvious to us all.

23
00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:37,959
It's good, right. It's a shared it's a shared sense

24
00:01:38,200 --> 00:01:42,280
of what is occurring. Right, A lot of people lament

25
00:01:42,799 --> 00:01:45,599
Back in the olden times when we only had three

26
00:01:45,680 --> 00:01:50,079
TV stations, everybody had a shared sense of what is

27
00:01:50,239 --> 00:01:55,480
true and what is not. Because the media acts as gatekeepers.

28
00:01:55,599 --> 00:02:00,480
It is by definition a gatekeeping kind of operation industry.

29
00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:04,120
And I'm not saying that as a slur. I am

30
00:02:04,120 --> 00:02:07,799
a gatekeeper as well. You are too. On your social media.

31
00:02:08,080 --> 00:02:11,639
You don't retweet and repost every single thing. Okay, well

32
00:02:11,680 --> 00:02:14,120
some of you do. I know who you are. But

33
00:02:14,360 --> 00:02:18,840
some people just regurgitate everything, but not everything, right. They

34
00:02:18,840 --> 00:02:22,719
don't post things that they don't agree with usually, So

35
00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:27,759
everybody is acting as sort of an aggregator and a gatekeeper,

36
00:02:29,919 --> 00:02:33,520
and the media has done this since its inception. That's

37
00:02:33,960 --> 00:02:38,080
the core function is to look at the universe of

38
00:02:38,560 --> 00:02:42,800
stories that are out there and then to aggregate down

39
00:02:43,960 --> 00:02:46,159
the things that are most important that you're going to

40
00:02:46,199 --> 00:02:51,479
now devote your time and energy to reporting on. But

41
00:02:51,560 --> 00:02:55,520
the downside of that, obviously is that yes, you may

42
00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:59,199
have a shared sense of what is true and real

43
00:02:59,240 --> 00:03:03,919
and what's happen in the world, but the gatekeeping function

44
00:03:04,120 --> 00:03:09,680
restricts other stories that might actually be as important or

45
00:03:10,280 --> 00:03:15,080
more important than the stories that the gatekeepers have allowed

46
00:03:15,080 --> 00:03:20,240
to pass through. So again, kudos to Politico for writing

47
00:03:21,840 --> 00:03:25,199
one of the most powerful wings of the Trump resistance

48
00:03:25,879 --> 00:03:31,159
may be at risk of losing a crucial tool. What

49
00:03:31,280 --> 00:03:43,080
is this nationwide injunctions aka lawfare? Democrats lefty groups suing

50
00:03:43,560 --> 00:03:50,800
in front of allied judges and getting temporary restraining orders

51
00:03:50,840 --> 00:03:55,960
or injunctions against Donald Trump's executive orders or actions, and

52
00:03:56,039 --> 00:03:59,879
it blocks Trump from implementing his agenda because they can

53
00:04:00,240 --> 00:04:04,960
block him at the legislature. You know, they lost the

54
00:04:05,360 --> 00:04:08,240
White House, and so this is the only thing that

55
00:04:08,280 --> 00:04:10,639
they can do to gum up the works and run

56
00:04:10,639 --> 00:04:12,960
out the clock. And that is the point here, right,

57
00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:18,199
It's to drag everything out so long that Trump's tenure

58
00:04:18,560 --> 00:04:26,560
ends before he is able to implement lasting change. They

59
00:04:26,600 --> 00:04:29,680
ask the question, what is the extent of lower court

60
00:04:29,759 --> 00:04:35,439
judges power to block a president's policies nationwide? That's the

61
00:04:35,480 --> 00:04:39,800
core question that the US Supreme Court now has agreed

62
00:04:39,839 --> 00:04:45,720
to hear arguments on next month. If the High Court

63
00:04:45,759 --> 00:04:50,959
grants the Trump administration's request to limit or lift three

64
00:04:51,240 --> 00:04:56,720
nationwide injunctions blocking his bid to end birthright citizenship, it

65
00:04:56,759 --> 00:05:00,319
could cripple the ability of President Donald Trump's opponents to

66
00:05:00,519 --> 00:05:07,319
seek and judge's ability to grant these blocks entirely. Right.

67
00:05:07,800 --> 00:05:12,319
It's it's getting worse right this, These abuses are getting

68
00:05:12,399 --> 00:05:17,480
worse and more voluminous, partly because Donald Trump has been

69
00:05:17,519 --> 00:05:20,319
doing a lot of stuff. Right. When you're cranking out

70
00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:23,399
executive orders at a clip like we're seeing, then you're

71
00:05:23,439 --> 00:05:27,720
going to get a commensurate amount of lawsuits that are

72
00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:31,079
going to be venue shopped to judges that agree with

73
00:05:31,160 --> 00:05:35,079
the Democrats the plaintiffs, and then you're going to end

74
00:05:35,120 --> 00:05:37,319
up with more and more and more of these injunctions.

75
00:05:38,120 --> 00:05:40,240
And I think you know, part of the problem in

76
00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:44,720
kind of going over this topic is that sometimes it

77
00:05:44,800 --> 00:05:48,160
is appropriate, sometimes you should be able to do this,

78
00:05:48,279 --> 00:05:51,879
but sometimes you shouldn't, and so you got to differentiate

79
00:05:51,920 --> 00:05:54,399
on a case by case basis. It is sort of

80
00:05:54,399 --> 00:05:59,079
a Cloward Piven effect, right. The old what sociologists who

81
00:05:59,600 --> 00:06:06,160
came up with this plan back in the sixties, the

82
00:06:06,240 --> 00:06:11,000
idea being to overwhelm the entire system with applicants for

83
00:06:11,079 --> 00:06:14,759
all sorts of government assistants and payments, and the idea

84
00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:18,920
is to strain, if not bankrupt, the system in order

85
00:06:18,959 --> 00:06:24,600
to force a collectivist shift among the elites to allow for,

86
00:06:24,920 --> 00:06:28,079
among other things, a guaranteed income for people to not

87
00:06:28,160 --> 00:06:32,160
even work. Just everybody gets a guaranteed income. That was

88
00:06:32,199 --> 00:06:36,439
one of the end goals. Politico says. Federal judges across

89
00:06:36,480 --> 00:06:39,680
the country have already applied the remedy to halt key

90
00:06:39,759 --> 00:06:44,360
parts of the president's agenda in lawsuits challenging anti diversity initiatives,

91
00:06:44,839 --> 00:06:50,439
cuts to federal medical research, the pause on refuge admissions,

92
00:06:50,759 --> 00:06:55,240
and a freeze on nearly all federal grants spending. Such

93
00:06:55,319 --> 00:06:58,240
limits on the executive branch, according to the Trump administration,

94
00:06:58,720 --> 00:07:02,839
prevent the government from functioning properly. And they are correct

95
00:07:02,879 --> 00:07:07,360
about that, right. An administration that comes in and says,

96
00:07:07,519 --> 00:07:09,959
you know, we're promising to do X, Y and Z

97
00:07:10,360 --> 00:07:14,279
when we're in charge of the administration or the executive branch,

98
00:07:14,879 --> 00:07:19,839
and is then blocked from doing those things. Yes, right,

99
00:07:19,959 --> 00:07:25,519
you are preventing the government from functioning properly. President Joe

100
00:07:25,519 --> 00:07:30,519
Biden's Department of Justice also asked the Supreme Court to

101
00:07:30,759 --> 00:07:35,720
limit lower courts nationwide injunction powers because once again, remember

102
00:07:36,160 --> 00:07:40,279
the other team gets an at bet, they get to

103
00:07:40,360 --> 00:07:47,439
play too. And the Biden administration tried to stop states

104
00:07:48,120 --> 00:07:52,319
from blocking actions by the federal government that these Republican

105
00:07:52,439 --> 00:07:57,399
led states opposed. So you know, three years ago, this

106
00:07:57,639 --> 00:08:01,360
was the argument being made by the Biden administration. The

107
00:08:01,480 --> 00:08:03,720
justices at the time did not take up that request.

108
00:08:03,959 --> 00:08:06,800
Conservative members of the Court have been public though, about

109
00:08:06,800 --> 00:08:13,920
their desire to restrain the broad applications of nationwide injunctions, right,

110
00:08:14,399 --> 00:08:18,879
because some of these lawyers with the wardrobe change, these

111
00:08:19,160 --> 00:08:22,879
lefty lawyers that win judge ships or get appointed to

112
00:08:22,920 --> 00:08:28,319
the bench, they are abusing their powers. That's why it's

113
00:08:28,319 --> 00:08:31,319
called lawfare, all right. So spring is here a time

114
00:08:31,399 --> 00:08:36,159
of renewal and celebrations. You've got graduations, weddings, anniversaries and

115
00:08:36,240 --> 00:08:38,799
the special days for mom and dad. Your family's making

116
00:08:38,840 --> 00:08:40,840
memories that are going to last a lifetime. But let

117
00:08:40,840 --> 00:08:43,840
me ask you, are all of those treasured moments from

118
00:08:43,960 --> 00:08:47,120
days gone by? Are they hidden away on old VCR tapes,

119
00:08:47,320 --> 00:08:52,360
eight millimeter films, photos slides? Are they preserved? Because over time,

120
00:08:52,440 --> 00:08:56,360
these precious memories can fade and deteriorate, losing the magic

121
00:08:56,480 --> 00:08:59,679
of yesterday. At Creative Video, they help you protect what

122
00:08:59,679 --> 00:09:03,960

00:09:07,080 --> 00:09:09,759
time so they can be enjoyed for generations to come.

125
00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:12,879
I urge you do not wait until it's too late.

create a video dot com so Politico. Kudos to Politico

132
00:09:35,240 --> 00:09:39,559
for recognizing that the lawfare is one of the most

133
00:09:39,559 --> 00:09:43,399
powerful wings of the Trump resistance, and they may be

134
00:09:43,559 --> 00:09:48,840
losing a crucial tool, the ability to go in front

135
00:09:48,879 --> 00:09:53,039
of a single judge that hates Donald Trump, who then

136
00:09:53,080 --> 00:09:58,200
issues an injunction to prevent Trump from doing stuff. Now

137
00:09:58,200 --> 00:10:01,879
the Supreme Court has agreed to take the sub they

138
00:10:01,919 --> 00:10:06,320
could declare that trial judges can enter injunctions that apply

139
00:10:06,600 --> 00:10:10,600
only in the geographic districts where they are appointed. So

140
00:10:10,679 --> 00:10:14,279
if you take your case to Charlotte and you win,

141
00:10:14,519 --> 00:10:19,679
it would only affect whatever jurisdiction Charlotte covers. That's it.

142
00:10:20,559 --> 00:10:25,080
Or the Supreme Court might restrict trial judges from issuing

143
00:10:25,120 --> 00:10:29,000
remedies that go beyond the specific litigans in a particular case.

144
00:10:29,559 --> 00:10:34,200
So if I were to bring a challenge a complaint

145
00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:37,960
and I win, the Supreme Court could say, well, it

146
00:10:37,960 --> 00:10:42,559
only applies to me. You can't create an entire class

147
00:10:42,720 --> 00:10:48,159
of plaintiffs that haven't been designated as an official class,

148
00:10:48,759 --> 00:10:52,679
and that takes time. Think like class action lawsuits. You know,

149
00:10:53,559 --> 00:10:55,879
you got to put out all the postcards, you got

150
00:10:55,879 --> 00:10:58,480
to send them all out, you got to get people

151
00:10:58,519 --> 00:11:00,399
to sign up, and then you got to kind of

152
00:11:00,480 --> 00:11:03,320
vet everybody, and then if you're successful, you get like,

153
00:11:03,360 --> 00:11:06,279
you know, a dollar eighty two in some settlement. Right

154
00:11:07,240 --> 00:11:10,879
three members of the High Court's right flank have already

155
00:11:10,879 --> 00:11:14,200
made clear they would all but eliminate lower Court's power

156
00:11:14,320 --> 00:11:19,399
to issue nationwide injunctions. Those justices would be Clarence Thomas,

157
00:11:19,799 --> 00:11:25,000
Samuel Alito, and Neil Gorsich. Because last year they wrote

158
00:11:25,039 --> 00:11:27,600
an opinion. Gorsets wrote an opinion. The other two signed

159
00:11:27,639 --> 00:11:33,240
on warning that injunctions and other relief should be limited

160
00:11:33,320 --> 00:11:37,120
to the named plaintiffs in a case, rather than applying

161
00:11:37,159 --> 00:11:42,679
across the country. Gorsetch wrote, quote, retiring the universal injunction

162
00:11:43,200 --> 00:11:46,000
may not be the answer to everything that ails us,

163
00:11:46,440 --> 00:11:48,759
but it will lead federal courts to become a little

164
00:11:48,840 --> 00:11:52,080
truer to the historic limits of their office. Okay, so

165
00:11:52,159 --> 00:11:56,399
what is he saying there? He's saying that these lower

166
00:11:56,399 --> 00:12:03,720
court Democrat judges have abused their authority. They have usurped

167
00:12:03,840 --> 00:12:11,279
the norms. Right, This power traditionally was very very limited.

168
00:12:11,360 --> 00:12:15,159
The use of it was very limited. But in recent

169
00:12:15,279 --> 00:12:18,679
years it has grown more and more prolific, more and

170
00:12:18,759 --> 00:12:23,080
more sweeping, right covering the entire country. I mean, heck,

171
00:12:23,120 --> 00:12:26,679
you got that guy Boseburg on the bench up in

172
00:12:26,759 --> 00:12:30,799
what DC or New York. He's like, now broken the

173
00:12:30,840 --> 00:12:38,000
boundaries of America. He's demanding El Salvador do stuff. Justice

174
00:12:38,039 --> 00:12:41,279
Brett Kavanaugh also has indicated that the Court should review

175
00:12:41,360 --> 00:12:46,480
the appropriateness of nationwide injunctions, but that that doesn't give

176
00:12:46,559 --> 00:12:48,759
us any indication as to which way he may go

177
00:12:48,879 --> 00:12:51,759
on this right, And I don't put a whole lot

178
00:12:51,759 --> 00:12:56,879
of stock in predictions on how justices are going to

179
00:12:57,000 --> 00:13:00,720
rule on various things. People make all sorts of speculations.

180
00:13:00,759 --> 00:13:03,200
Your court watchers say that it looked like this was

181
00:13:03,240 --> 00:13:08,480
going to happen. You don't know that, Okay. The wild

182
00:13:08,519 --> 00:13:14,240
cards are John Roberts, Amy, Cony, Barrett, because they have

183
00:13:14,320 --> 00:13:18,120
not offered clear signs yet of what their views on

184
00:13:18,159 --> 00:13:21,799
this subject are. So if you were to get rid

185
00:13:21,840 --> 00:13:27,000
of nationwide injunctions, there could be real costs. According to

186
00:13:27,080 --> 00:13:32,360
Rick Hassen, a prominent election law expert at UCLA's Law School,

187
00:13:33,240 --> 00:13:36,360
a fave of the left, he described a scenario in

188
00:13:36,360 --> 00:13:40,000
which Trump's efforts to end automatic birthright citizenship is upheld

189
00:13:40,039 --> 00:13:43,279
in one circuit court but not in another, leaving people

190
00:13:43,320 --> 00:13:45,279
in one region of the country who are going to

191
00:13:45,320 --> 00:13:49,799
face consequences during that period, sometimes consequences that might not

192
00:13:49,879 --> 00:13:54,919
be undone. Right, So, yeah, you live in California and

193
00:13:55,600 --> 00:13:57,919
you're an illegal alien and you have a child, and

194
00:13:57,960 --> 00:14:00,080
now that child is a citizen. But you live in

195
00:14:00,080 --> 00:14:05,080
in Arkansas and same thing, but now that kit is

196
00:14:05,120 --> 00:14:05,840
not a citizen.

197
00:14:06,039 --> 00:14:06,200
Speaker 2: Right.

198
00:14:06,200 --> 00:14:10,759
Speaker 1: It's going to create problems because you'll have all of

199
00:14:10,759 --> 00:14:14,039
these different circuits with different ideas and different rulings. And

200
00:14:14,080 --> 00:14:17,600
so the application of those laws then are different for

201
00:14:17,759 --> 00:14:22,919
those people in those jurisdictions. Abolishing these national injunctions would

202
00:14:22,960 --> 00:14:25,879
mean a tougher fight for the many groups suing the administration,

203
00:14:26,320 --> 00:14:28,759
if only because it will add to the constant legal

204
00:14:28,879 --> 00:14:33,000
uncertainty and chaos that sometimes enables Trump's policies.

205
00:14:33,639 --> 00:14:33,759
Speaker 2: Right.

206
00:14:33,840 --> 00:14:36,360
Speaker 1: Well, there's another reason that makes it more difficult for

207
00:14:36,399 --> 00:14:39,039
these groups is that they actually have to go and

208
00:14:39,080 --> 00:14:43,639
litigate in front of multiple different judges across the country.

209
00:14:45,120 --> 00:14:51,240
It limits their ability to venue shop, forum shop, judge shop. Right.

210
00:14:51,919 --> 00:14:54,679
They now have to make these arguments to a wide

211
00:14:54,799 --> 00:14:57,720
array of judges in different areas of the country with

212
00:14:57,960 --> 00:15:03,399
different judicial philosophies, and you may get different results. See.

213
00:15:03,440 --> 00:15:07,519
That's why it would be difficult for these groups during

214
00:15:07,519 --> 00:15:10,159
the time it takes for cases to percolate all the

215
00:15:10,159 --> 00:15:13,559
way up to this US Supreme Court, the administration would

216
00:15:13,559 --> 00:15:16,600
have authority to continue policies and practices that some courts

217
00:15:16,600 --> 00:15:20,080
have already temporarily put on hold. Hassen said quote. Part

218
00:15:20,120 --> 00:15:22,519
of the problem is that Trump is doing so many

219
00:15:22,559 --> 00:15:25,759
things that are extraordinary that lead to litigation that have

220
00:15:25,840 --> 00:15:30,799
to be resolved on an emergency basis. See it's Trump's fault.

221
00:15:31,360 --> 00:15:34,679
It's Trump's fault that we have to sue him for

222
00:15:35,039 --> 00:15:43,279
trying to follow immigration law or something. And that's how

223
00:15:43,320 --> 00:15:46,120
you end up also with these crazy judges like the

224
00:15:46,120 --> 00:15:50,519
one that got herself arrested up in Minnesota, I believe,

225
00:15:50,639 --> 00:15:55,039
or yeah, Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Yeah. Here's a great idea. How

248
00:17:08,559 --> 00:17:11,720
with Will Chamberlain. He is the senior council at the

249
00:17:11,839 --> 00:17:12,960
Article three project.

250
00:17:12,960 --> 00:17:13,200
Speaker 2: Will.

251
00:17:13,200 --> 00:17:13,880
Speaker 1: How are you, sir?

252
00:17:15,039 --> 00:17:17,000
Speaker 2: Good? Great to be with you, Pete, Yes, sir, thanks.

253
00:17:16,839 --> 00:17:19,400
Speaker 1: For making time for me. I appreciate it today. So

254
00:17:19,440 --> 00:17:21,880
I went over a little bit political had a recent

255
00:17:22,000 --> 00:17:24,960
article going over how the US Supreme Court is going

256
00:17:25,000 --> 00:17:30,559
to look at these nationwide injunctions. But it's part of

257
00:17:30,599 --> 00:17:34,640
this case over birthright citizenship, and so I guess the

258
00:17:34,680 --> 00:17:38,480
first question I've got is is this even something that

259
00:17:38,519 --> 00:17:42,880
the Supreme Court can actually rain in? Because it feels

260
00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:49,240
like these lower court judges are abusing their powers, and

261
00:17:50,039 --> 00:17:52,400
I don't know how the Supreme Court would actually get

262
00:17:52,440 --> 00:17:54,200
at that to codify it.

263
00:17:54,400 --> 00:17:57,359
Speaker 2: I mean if they you know, the Supreme Court has

264
00:17:57,359 --> 00:17:59,799
a lot of discretion at least with regard to you know,

265
00:17:59,839 --> 00:18:02,880
the essentially the procedures of the courts below them, certainly,

266
00:18:04,200 --> 00:18:06,759
and you know what authority they have to issue injunctions,

267
00:18:06,759 --> 00:18:09,000
I mean equity, which is where all this comes from,

268
00:18:09,079 --> 00:18:14,000
and is really a judge made concept. It's judge made law.

269
00:18:14,440 --> 00:18:16,799
So on the I mean, obviously Congress could put a

270
00:18:16,799 --> 00:18:19,160
stop to it, to it too, and you know, impose

271
00:18:19,240 --> 00:18:21,440
restrictions on the lower courts. That's within their authority. But

272
00:18:21,480 --> 00:18:23,119
I think the Supreme Court could do the same thing.

273
00:18:23,960 --> 00:18:27,920
Speaker 1: So how would that look If you've got different district

274
00:18:27,960 --> 00:18:32,480
courts issuing different rulings, you could have like a patchwork

275
00:18:32,640 --> 00:18:35,359
of the application of the law throughout the country.

276
00:18:35,480 --> 00:18:38,480
Speaker 2: Right, Yeah, but that's already the case. I mean, that's

277
00:18:38,480 --> 00:18:40,599
actually the way the law works now in a lot

278
00:18:40,599 --> 00:18:42,799
of different instances. Right. There's a lot of cases where

279
00:18:42,799 --> 00:18:46,960
you have disagree with each other on the point of law,

280
00:18:47,000 --> 00:18:50,480
and that's often ultimately leads to the Supreme Court stepping

281
00:18:50,519 --> 00:18:53,200
into try and make the law uniform. Across the country.

282
00:18:53,200 --> 00:18:56,480
But the idea that I mean, yeah, there are certainly

283
00:18:56,519 --> 00:19:00,000
issues where the law is functionally different in different circus,

284
00:19:00,680 --> 00:19:02,599
and probably will be until the Supreme Court gets a

285
00:19:02,640 --> 00:19:04,119
chance to weigh in in a proper case.

286
00:19:05,160 --> 00:19:09,680
Speaker 1: I got an email question from Chris. He says, what

287
00:19:10,119 --> 00:19:15,799
executable accountability is there if the injunctions are ignored? I

288
00:19:15,799 --> 00:19:16,920
guess by the administration.

289
00:19:18,359 --> 00:19:21,960
Speaker 2: I mean accountability nothing. I mean, there's no there's no

290
00:19:22,160 --> 00:19:25,960
other than the accountability is impeachment by the House and

291
00:19:26,039 --> 00:19:30,440
conviction by the Senate. The president is the head of

292
00:19:30,480 --> 00:19:33,000
the executive branch and in charge of all federal law enforcement.

293
00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:38,960
There's no independent enforcement agency above the president that could

294
00:19:38,960 --> 00:19:42,319
force him to obey the Supreme Court. There is just

295
00:19:42,359 --> 00:19:43,359
the remedy of impeachment.

296
00:19:44,000 --> 00:19:47,440
Speaker 1: So do you think that that is That's sort of

297
00:19:47,440 --> 00:19:51,079
the second goal of the law fair that we're seeing

298
00:19:51,400 --> 00:19:55,880
is to induce this refusal to follow an injunction in

299
00:19:56,079 --> 00:19:59,319
order to then you know, stack up a case for

300
00:19:59,640 --> 00:20:01,920
imp if the Democrats win back control.

301
00:20:02,960 --> 00:20:04,920
Speaker 2: That might be part of it. Yeah, I think that

302
00:20:04,960 --> 00:20:07,720
I could easily see that being the logic. You know, basically,

303
00:20:07,799 --> 00:20:09,920
try and get to a point where you essentially force

304
00:20:09,960 --> 00:20:12,160
the administration to defy a court order because the court

305
00:20:12,279 --> 00:20:15,000
order is lawless, the court order doesn't respect core Article

306
00:20:15,039 --> 00:20:18,599
two prerogatives. And then in a couple of years we

307
00:20:18,680 --> 00:20:20,759
could see, yeah, we could see some sort of impeachment

308
00:20:20,799 --> 00:20:21,640
attempt based on that.

309
00:20:22,119 --> 00:20:25,920
Speaker 1: So what what's your assessment of this of this fight

310
00:20:26,079 --> 00:20:30,160
this is it does it rise to the constitutional crisis level?

311
00:20:30,400 --> 00:20:33,759
Or is it is this sort of like a natural

312
00:20:33,920 --> 00:20:36,400
testing and pushing back one branch against another.

313
00:20:38,440 --> 00:20:41,960
Speaker 2: I think it's it's more, you know, the push and

314
00:20:42,000 --> 00:20:44,519
pull of an executive branch that's finally decided to assert

315
00:20:44,559 --> 00:20:47,839
its authority and the judicial branch being staff of a

316
00:20:47,880 --> 00:20:49,839
bunch of people who despise the president and are trying

317
00:20:49,839 --> 00:20:52,160
to push back on that. I think that's really I've

318
00:20:52,160 --> 00:20:54,720
said this before, but the constitution crisis is being created

319
00:20:54,759 --> 00:20:57,359
by some unbelievably aggressive district court rulings.

320
00:20:58,640 --> 00:21:01,359
Speaker 1: So are there any that particularly stand out?

321
00:21:02,720 --> 00:21:04,599
Speaker 2: Oh? I mean, there was there was the order by

322
00:21:04,640 --> 00:21:07,839
the DC district judge to turn planes around once the

323
00:21:07,839 --> 00:21:09,920
planes were already in mid air. There was a different

324
00:21:09,960 --> 00:21:14,119
DC judge who ordered USA to disperse funds without a bond,

325
00:21:15,359 --> 00:21:18,799
wildly outside of jurisdiction. Because you know, and jurisdiction is

326
00:21:18,799 --> 00:21:21,359
sort of a routine theme where it's like courts don't

327
00:21:21,359 --> 00:21:23,599
actually have the authority to issue the release they're issuing.

328
00:21:23,720 --> 00:21:26,240
So you know, a DC district judge doesn't have the

329
00:21:26,319 --> 00:21:29,119
right to demand that funds be dispersed because that's the

330
00:21:29,160 --> 00:21:31,640
contract matter and that goes to the Court of Federal Claims.

331
00:21:32,559 --> 00:21:34,599
The DC judge who ordered planes turn around didn't have

332
00:21:34,680 --> 00:21:37,279
jurisdiction because it's a habeus issue, so it needs to

333
00:21:37,319 --> 00:21:39,480
be brought in the court where the person is being

334
00:21:39,519 --> 00:21:43,000
held or was most recently held. So you have this

335
00:21:43,039 --> 00:21:45,599
consistent problem where district judges are like, oh, the Trump

336
00:21:45,599 --> 00:21:48,440
administration is violating the law, and then they're violating the

337
00:21:48,519 --> 00:21:50,680
law themselves because they're not even looking at whether they

338
00:21:50,680 --> 00:21:53,200
have the authority to issue a decision in the first place.

339
00:21:53,599 --> 00:21:57,759
Speaker 1: Do you think that Trump and the administration should consider

340
00:21:57,839 --> 00:22:00,680
looking at suspending habeas for deportees.

341
00:22:02,079 --> 00:22:03,480
Speaker 2: I mean they should look at it. I think I

342
00:22:03,519 --> 00:22:05,799
don't think it's necessary, But there's a world in which

343
00:22:05,799 --> 00:22:09,519
if I mean that is the underlying in a world

344
00:22:09,519 --> 00:22:14,240
where the Supreme Court imposes unbelievably ownerous restrictions on individual deportations.

345
00:22:14,279 --> 00:22:17,160
I think that'll be necessary. I just I think that

346
00:22:17,200 --> 00:22:20,359
there's a there's a democratic legitimacy problem. President Trump was

347
00:22:20,400 --> 00:22:24,599
elected to engage in mass deportation. He ran on the platform.

348
00:22:24,920 --> 00:22:28,680
The Biden administration facilitated a mass invasion. If the judiciary

349
00:22:28,720 --> 00:22:30,599
is going to forward the democratic will of the people

350
00:22:30,640 --> 00:22:33,799
on an issue at this central to our country, then

351
00:22:33,960 --> 00:22:36,240
I think that, you know, the president should look at

352
00:22:36,240 --> 00:22:39,680
all options available to him to achieve what he ran

353
00:22:39,720 --> 00:22:42,759
on and what he legitimately should have the right to do.

354
00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:45,759
Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, let me shift gears up to Milwaukee

355
00:22:45,759 --> 00:22:49,880
County Circuit Court Judge Hannah Dugan. This is the this

356
00:22:49,920 --> 00:22:53,920
is the judge. Yeah, that apparently helped an illegal, a criminal,

357
00:22:53,960 --> 00:22:57,400
violent criminal, illegal alien, helped him escape out the back

358
00:22:57,440 --> 00:23:01,799
door to avoid arrest by ice. She then got herself

359
00:23:01,880 --> 00:23:05,240
arrested for that obstruction. I would say, have you ever

360
00:23:05,279 --> 00:23:06,960
heard of anything like this? But I think we actually

361
00:23:06,960 --> 00:23:09,240
did hear about something like this during Trump's first term,

362
00:23:09,279 --> 00:23:12,319
when a different judge did a similar thing. I guess

363
00:23:12,319 --> 00:23:15,720
it speaks to sort of the same kind of mindset

364
00:23:15,920 --> 00:23:19,240
that has infected a lot of these leftist lawyers with

365
00:23:19,839 --> 00:23:20,880
wardrobe changes.

366
00:23:22,000 --> 00:23:24,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean in the sense It's a really great

367
00:23:24,240 --> 00:23:26,720
metaphor for what the federal judiciary is doing as well.

368
00:23:26,720 --> 00:23:30,920
The difference is the federal judiciary has lawful authority to

369
00:23:31,319 --> 00:23:35,480
decide cases, so they can't be prosecuted for just deciding

370
00:23:35,640 --> 00:23:38,960
a case incorrectly and there and thereby you know, protecting

371
00:23:39,000 --> 00:23:41,759
illegal aliens. But the state court judge didn't have any

372
00:23:41,759 --> 00:23:43,599
authority to do anything like that, and yet took it

373
00:23:43,680 --> 00:23:46,319
upon herself to, yeah, shove this person through the jury

374
00:23:46,359 --> 00:23:48,119
door and try and help them get out of the

375
00:23:48,119 --> 00:23:49,480
building before I scot them.

376
00:23:50,039 --> 00:23:53,200
Speaker 1: Right, you have you read the details, like who else,

377
00:23:53,319 --> 00:23:56,559
like the victims were in the court with them and

378
00:23:56,640 --> 00:23:59,559
saw this all play out, Like it's just it's it's

379
00:23:59,559 --> 00:24:03,599
an am amazing, just tone deaf thing to do, just

380
00:24:03,640 --> 00:24:06,680
offensive thing to do for an officer of a court.

381
00:24:07,759 --> 00:24:10,039
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was incredibly audacious. I mean just in the

382
00:24:10,119 --> 00:24:12,240
level of entitlement. You know, I've been reading a lot

383
00:24:12,279 --> 00:24:14,680
about immigration recently, in the sort of history of the

384
00:24:14,680 --> 00:24:17,279
asylum movements and a lot of the NGOs that work

385
00:24:17,319 --> 00:24:19,799
in immigration, and you have to understand, these people think

386
00:24:19,839 --> 00:24:24,880
they're like Harriet Tubman running the underground railroad. They they

387
00:24:25,079 --> 00:24:27,880
just they think they're farts nut stake. They think they're

388
00:24:27,920 --> 00:24:30,480
so righteous that the law is just there as a

389
00:24:30,519 --> 00:24:32,640
tool to be used, but it's not something they need

390
00:24:32,680 --> 00:24:36,240
to obey because their righteous cause is more important than

391
00:24:36,279 --> 00:24:36,599
the law.

392
00:24:37,519 --> 00:24:40,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's it really is. It really is amazing. Thank goodness,

393
00:24:40,400 --> 00:24:45,319
the the Ice folks caught the guy outside the courthouse

394
00:24:45,319 --> 00:24:47,559
where having we had a similar thing happened right here

395
00:24:47,559 --> 00:24:51,920
in Charlotte last week. Our sheriff confronted some ICE agents

396
00:24:51,960 --> 00:24:54,200
that were picking somebody up outside the courthouse, which, of

397
00:24:54,240 --> 00:24:58,240
course now they're allowed to do. Like the Ice agents

398
00:24:58,240 --> 00:25:01,960
are allowed to affect these arrests on public property as

399
00:25:01,960 --> 00:25:04,119
long as it's not inside of a courtroom. I believe

400
00:25:04,160 --> 00:25:06,799
if it's out in the hallways or out on the courtyard,

401
00:25:07,119 --> 00:25:07,920
they can do this.

402
00:25:09,039 --> 00:25:12,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's this is the United States of America. You know,

403
00:25:12,920 --> 00:25:16,480
the state of North Carolina is not independently sovereign. We

404
00:25:16,519 --> 00:25:19,079
don't get to tell federal authorities to go away. That's

405
00:25:19,119 --> 00:25:22,920
not how this works. Like the most basic part of

406
00:25:22,920 --> 00:25:25,920
a Constitution of supremacy clause, the federal government is supreme

407
00:25:25,960 --> 00:25:28,119
to the states. There are certain rights reserved of the states,

408
00:25:28,599 --> 00:25:32,079
but when federal authorities are engaged in federal law enforcement,

409
00:25:32,240 --> 00:25:35,359
i e. Immigration enforcement, the States don't get to tell

410
00:25:35,400 --> 00:25:38,680
them go away. I mean outside of like the limited

411
00:25:38,680 --> 00:25:41,480
context of inside a courtroom.

412
00:25:41,079 --> 00:25:43,119
Speaker 1: Right, which I think we can all understand why if

413
00:25:43,160 --> 00:25:46,839
you're you know, running a court, that would make sense.

414
00:25:46,880 --> 00:25:48,880
You don't want to be, you know, tackling people and

415
00:25:48,960 --> 00:25:51,920
arresting them right in front. But it's a controlled environment.

416
00:25:51,960 --> 00:25:54,319
It just makes sense. It's the courthouse, or it's the jail,

417
00:25:54,400 --> 00:25:57,279
Like that's the safest place to take somebody into custody.

418
00:25:57,319 --> 00:25:59,279
It's it's bizarre, right.

419
00:25:59,640 --> 00:26:00,920
Speaker 2: You don't have go to their house, you don't have

420
00:26:00,920 --> 00:26:04,519
to go with guns. You know they've been disarmed. They're right,

421
00:26:04,559 --> 00:26:07,160
you know, they're around other law enforcement. Like, it's a

422
00:26:07,240 --> 00:26:10,160
very safe place to affect arrests, which is why it's

423
00:26:10,160 --> 00:26:12,119
perfectly sensible for ICE to want to do it in

424
00:26:12,200 --> 00:26:12,799
a courthouse.

425
00:26:13,000 --> 00:26:16,759
Speaker 1: Yeah. Will Chamberlain, the senior counselor at the Article three Project,

426
00:26:16,839 --> 00:26:18,279
go to talk with you, sir, Thanks a lot for

427
00:26:18,359 --> 00:26:19,680
your insight, appreciate.

428
00:26:19,240 --> 00:26:22,200
Speaker 2: It, absolutely always kind Pete, all right.

429
00:26:22,039 --> 00:26:23,880
Speaker 1: If you're listening to this show, you know I try

430
00:26:23,880 --> 00:26:25,680
to keep up with all sorts of current events, and

431
00:26:25,720 --> 00:26:27,759
I know you do too. And you've probably heard me

432
00:26:27,799 --> 00:26:32,039
say get your news from multiple sources. Why well, because

433
00:26:32,039 --> 00:26:34,720
it's how you detect media bias, which is why I've

434
00:26:34,759 --> 00:26:38,079
been so impressed with ground News. It's an app and

435
00:26:38,319 --> 00:26:41,200
it's a website and it combines news from around the

436
00:26:41,240 --> 00:26:43,920
world in one place so you can compare coverage and

437
00:26:44,039 --> 00:26:47,839
verify information. You can check it out at check dot ground,

438
00:26:48,160 --> 00:26:51,200
dot news slash pete. I put the link in the

439
00:26:51,200 --> 00:26:54,440
podcast description too. I started using ground News a few

440
00:26:54,480 --> 00:26:57,200
months ago and more recently chose to work with them

441
00:26:57,200 --> 00:26:59,960
as an affiliate because it lets me see clearly how

442
00:27:00,160 --> 00:27:03,519
stories get covered and by whom. The blind spot feature

443
00:27:03,559 --> 00:27:06,240
shows you which stories get ignored by the left and

444
00:27:06,359 --> 00:27:10,319
the right. See for yourself. Check dot ground, dot news

448
00:27:20,440 --> 00:27:23,440
only helps my podcast, but it also supports ground News

449
00:27:23,440 --> 00:27:27,480
as they make the media landscape more transparent. I do

450
00:27:27,599 --> 00:27:30,160
not know what airport this is, but they hung like

451
00:27:30,200 --> 00:27:34,720
a twenty by twenty foot painting of Icarus on fire

452
00:27:34,839 --> 00:27:37,720
falling from the sky. Why would you do that in

453
00:27:37,759 --> 00:27:43,240
an airport. Why kind of awkward, I mean, not as

454
00:27:43,319 --> 00:27:47,079
awkward as I don't know, say Bill Belichick interview on

455
00:27:47,119 --> 00:27:54,119
Sunday Mornings. But also, did you see the scandal about

456
00:27:54,160 --> 00:27:58,359
Donald Trump's blue suit? You wore a blue suit to

457
00:27:57,359 --> 00:28:03,839
the Pope's funeral, and like somebody took a crop shot

458
00:28:04,039 --> 00:28:08,559
photograph everybody around him wearing black, Trump's wearing blue and

459
00:28:08,599 --> 00:28:11,559
you're not supposed to wear a blue suit. And then

460
00:28:11,599 --> 00:28:14,720
when you zoom out, you see like Prince William wearing

461
00:28:14,759 --> 00:28:17,079
a blue suit. You see like all these other people

462
00:28:17,319 --> 00:28:20,000
wearing dark blue suits as well. Now, I don't know

463
00:28:20,000 --> 00:28:25,000
if it raised arises to the scandalous level of Obama's

464
00:28:25,039 --> 00:28:29,039
tan suit, which was scandalous, whereas Ronald Reagan's tan suit

465
00:28:29,160 --> 00:28:34,400
was pretty norm But yeah, I don't know. Maybe you

466
00:28:34,440 --> 00:28:39,960
know what, maybe Trump goes with the tattered like grassmowing

467
00:28:41,160 --> 00:28:44,240
sweatshirt that Bill Belichick wore during his interview, Like do

468
00:28:44,319 --> 00:28:47,799
that too, Like just start wearing that? Do not get it?

469
00:28:50,319 --> 00:28:50,400
Speaker 2: All?

470
00:28:50,519 --> 00:28:55,279
Speaker 1: Right? So protesters were out there protesting as they are

471
00:28:55,319 --> 00:29:01,119
known to do outside the FBI after in Milwaukee, after

472
00:29:01,240 --> 00:29:06,640
agents arrested a Milwaukee judge accused of helping a man

473
00:29:06,759 --> 00:29:17,920
evade immigration authorities. The case has escalated. That's the word escalation.

474
00:29:18,960 --> 00:29:24,319
That's the word. If you don't believe me. Here is

475
00:29:24,359 --> 00:29:28,240
a compilation put together by Western Lensman over on Twitter

476
00:29:28,920 --> 00:29:32,000
of the calcifying narrative.

477
00:29:32,799 --> 00:29:36,039
Speaker 3: We begin tonight with the escalation in the President's crackdown

478
00:29:36,119 --> 00:29:37,319
on illegal immigrations.

479
00:29:37,400 --> 00:29:42,039
Speaker 4: Today's dramatic escalation in the Trump Administration's conflict with judges,

480
00:29:42,160 --> 00:29:44,960
with the Trump administration signaling a major escalation in its

481
00:29:45,039 --> 00:29:46,400
deportation efforts.

482
00:29:46,240 --> 00:29:51,319
Speaker 1: Today, an escalation and the Trump Administration's battle with the judiciary.

483
00:29:50,839 --> 00:29:54,720
Speaker 2: Tensions between local and federal authorities of our President Trump's

484
00:29:54,720 --> 00:29:57,240
immigration crackdown escalated today.

485
00:29:57,359 --> 00:30:00,160
Speaker 1: We began this hour with a major escalation of the

486
00:30:00,200 --> 00:30:02,720
Trump Administration's cracked down or immigration as.

487
00:30:02,519 --> 00:30:05,240
Speaker 4: We begin with what appears to be a major escalation

488
00:30:05,279 --> 00:30:08,559
in the Trump Administration's deportation efforts, and what is a

489
00:30:08,640 --> 00:30:12,000
major escalation in the battle here in DC over immigration

490
00:30:12,240 --> 00:30:13,079
and deportation.

491
00:30:13,400 --> 00:30:17,240
Speaker 1: This feels like an insane and reckless escalation from the

492
00:30:17,279 --> 00:30:20,200
Trump administration. Arresting a judge. I will tell you you

493
00:30:20,240 --> 00:30:23,200
are not alone, is a dramatic escalation, more.

494
00:30:23,039 --> 00:30:25,680
Speaker 4: Aggressive moves, more escalation.

495
00:30:25,279 --> 00:30:28,359
Speaker 1: With Trump's escalation of his migrant purge.

496
00:30:28,480 --> 00:30:30,400
Speaker 3: This kind of escalatory action.

497
00:30:30,680 --> 00:30:36,240
Speaker 1: This is a dramatic escalation. Escalation, escalation, escalation, escalation, escalation.

498
00:30:36,319 --> 00:30:42,200
You see an immigration and escalation and escalation. Props to

499
00:30:42,240 --> 00:30:46,920
the guy who used the was it escalatory escalator or

500
00:30:46,960 --> 00:30:50,599
something where I didn't want to say an escalation. There

501
00:30:50,680 --> 00:30:54,119
is a reason why they all are saying the same thing.

502
00:30:54,880 --> 00:30:58,000
It's because somebody wrote it, probably the AP. I have

503
00:30:58,119 --> 00:31:01,519
the AP article here in second sentence, the case has

504
00:31:01,920 --> 00:31:08,960
escalated a clash, has it? Is this an escalation or

505
00:31:09,000 --> 00:31:12,279
is this the results of your own actions? When a

506
00:31:12,480 --> 00:31:18,240
judge breaks a law, then law enforcement goes in and

507
00:31:19,319 --> 00:31:24,119
arrests the judge, just like the judge down in where

508
00:31:24,200 --> 00:31:28,960
was it Arizona or something? Or California where the judge

509
00:31:28,960 --> 00:31:35,319
and his wife asked if some MS thirteen or TDA

510
00:31:35,519 --> 00:31:39,359
gangbanger guy wanted to stay in their poolhouse. I don't

511
00:31:39,359 --> 00:31:42,680
know if he was actually cleaning the pool while he

512
00:31:42,759 --> 00:31:48,319
was there. But to me, if you're breaking the law

513
00:31:48,599 --> 00:31:51,880
and you're aiding and embedding, obstructing, or harboring, and you

514
00:31:51,960 --> 00:31:55,799
know a wanted person, whether they're illegal or not, it's

515
00:31:55,839 --> 00:31:59,119
not an escalation to then arrest you for doing that.

516
00:32:00,799 --> 00:32:06,759
It is the natural outcome of your actions, right, it's

517
00:32:06,799 --> 00:32:13,279
the reaping phase. All right, let me jump over here. Well, say,

518
00:32:13,400 --> 00:32:16,039
John Doe, Welcome to the program, John Doe, how are you.

519
00:32:16,960 --> 00:32:17,839
Speaker 2: Hey, How are you doing? Pepe?

520
00:32:17,839 --> 00:32:20,680
Speaker 3: Hey, I'm your friend that you met at the Yes, Yes, sir,

521
00:32:21,559 --> 00:32:24,200
I just wanted to share a story. Well, first of all,

522
00:32:24,240 --> 00:32:25,880
what you're talking about with the judge makes me sick

523
00:32:25,920 --> 00:32:28,960
to my stomach. Yeah, I mean, it is absolutely ridiculous.

524
00:32:29,119 --> 00:32:30,839
But I wanted to share a story when I was

525
00:32:30,880 --> 00:32:35,000
in law enforcement, how our judges treated us at the

526
00:32:35,079 --> 00:32:38,400
municipal level. I was working and I got a phone

527
00:32:38,440 --> 00:32:40,759
call from a judge that was actually in the middle

528
00:32:40,799 --> 00:32:42,759
of a trial that took a recess to let us

529
00:32:42,799 --> 00:32:45,920
know that the person that was on trial had an

530
00:32:45,920 --> 00:32:48,880
active warrant and he wanted us to wait for him

531
00:32:49,200 --> 00:32:51,160
outside of the courthouse so we could take him in

532
00:32:51,200 --> 00:32:51,759
the custody.

533
00:32:52,599 --> 00:32:55,319
Speaker 1: Oh. So, like the complete opposite of what this Milwaukee

534
00:32:55,480 --> 00:32:56,000
judge did.

535
00:32:56,880 --> 00:33:01,079
Speaker 3: Correct, correct, And that's how I, truly, and I hope

536
00:33:01,119 --> 00:33:06,400
most people believed how judges and law enforcement on all levels, municipal, federal.

537
00:33:07,400 --> 00:33:09,880
I mean, that's how we should get along and work

538
00:33:09,960 --> 00:33:15,519
to get together cohesively versus trying to evade or help criminals.

539
00:33:15,839 --> 00:33:18,759
Speaker 1: Right if the law, If as an officer of the court,

540
00:33:19,200 --> 00:33:22,519
the judge is supposed to be applying the law, and

541
00:33:22,559 --> 00:33:24,799
they know that there is an active warrant out for

542
00:33:24,839 --> 00:33:27,880
somebody's arrest, then you would think it would be their

543
00:33:27,960 --> 00:33:31,279
duty as an officer of the court to alert the

544
00:33:31,319 --> 00:33:35,119
proper other officers of the of the court to go

545
00:33:35,240 --> 00:33:36,519
and pick the person up.

546
00:33:38,799 --> 00:33:43,000
Speaker 3: And that's that's exactly what this judge did. And literally

547
00:33:43,039 --> 00:33:48,559
in the middle of the court, Hey, come get them.

548
00:33:49,319 --> 00:33:51,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, well you dropped. I'm sorry you dropped out there.

549
00:33:51,920 --> 00:33:54,880
Uh so he said, literally, that's right. I said, literally

550
00:33:54,880 --> 00:33:56,640
in the middle of the court. Then then you dropped out.

551
00:33:56,640 --> 00:33:57,839
What happened in the middle of the court.

552
00:33:58,160 --> 00:34:00,000
Speaker 3: In the middle of the trial. He took a recess

553
00:34:00,079 --> 00:34:02,680
to let us know to get them and rest them

554
00:34:02,759 --> 00:34:05,359
on the court on the property of the court.

555
00:34:05,519 --> 00:34:08,679
Speaker 1: Yeah. Well yeah, because again it's a controlled environment. They've

556
00:34:08,719 --> 00:34:11,320
gone through security, so you know they don't have weapons

557
00:34:11,360 --> 00:34:14,360
coming in, and you got law enforcement all over the place.

558
00:34:15,320 --> 00:34:16,400
It makes sense.

559
00:34:17,719 --> 00:34:19,719
Speaker 3: And I just want to say there are good judges

560
00:34:19,719 --> 00:34:23,599
out there. Yes, obviously this one is just not there.

561
00:34:23,800 --> 00:34:26,400
Speaker 1: No, definitely not. Hey, John, appreciate the call. Man, good

562
00:34:26,400 --> 00:34:26,920
to talk with.

563
00:34:26,840 --> 00:34:28,519
Speaker 3: You, Yes, sir, thank you.

564
00:34:28,559 --> 00:34:34,119
Speaker 1: All right, take it easy. The protesters out in front

565
00:34:34,119 --> 00:34:37,440
of the FBI were chanting, because again that's what protesters do.

566
00:34:37,880 --> 00:34:40,199
They were chanting, well, unless they're doing the die ins

567
00:34:40,400 --> 00:34:43,079
right where they just lay down on the ground. They

568
00:34:43,079 --> 00:34:47,960
were chanting. Immigrants are here to stay. That's what they

569
00:34:47,960 --> 00:34:52,039
were chanting. Immigrants are here to stay. So again, like

570
00:34:52,880 --> 00:34:57,000
they're telling you what they believe the border policy should

571
00:34:57,039 --> 00:35:00,159
be and what we witnessed under the Biden administration, and

572
00:35:00,320 --> 00:35:05,800
is it they want open borders, they don't want any deportations.

573
00:35:07,400 --> 00:35:09,679
All right, that'll do it for this episode. Thank you
