Charlotte awaiting my deportation, I think to El Salvador, but
I'm not sure. So what is the number now? One
hundred and thirty plus I think.
Speaker 1: Was the number. The most recent number that I heard.
Speaker 2: One hundred thirty plus people were picked up by Customs
and Border Patrol agents that we're working this weekend.
Speaker 1: Outrage I'll be lee ensues.
Speaker 2: Let's start with the press release from the Department of
Homeland Security. This was sent out on Saturday when they
began their operations. The headline on the press release DHS
launches Operation Charlotte's Web to target criminal illegal aliens terrorizing
Americans in Charlotte, North Carolina and then it goes on
to state sanctuary policies prevented nearly fourteen hundred detainers in
North Carolina from being honored, putting criminal illegal aliens back
onto Charlotte's streets. Today, the Department of Homeland Security announced
DHS Law Enforcement is surging resources for Operation Charlotte's Web
in North Carolina. This operation will target the criminal illegal
aliens who flocked to the tar Heel state because they
knew sanctuary politicians would protect them and allow them to
roam free on American streets. Nearly fourteen hundred detainers across
the state have not been honored, releasing criminal illegal aliens
into North Carolina's neighborhoods. And then there's a quote from
Assistant DHS Secretary Tricia McLaughlin. She says Americans should be
able to live without fear of violent, criminal illegal aliens
hurting them, their families, or their neighbors. We are surging
DHS law enforcement to Charlotte to ensure Americans are safe
and public safety threats are removed. There have been too
many victims of criminal illegal aliens. President Trump and Secretary
Nome will step up to protect Americans when sanctuary politicians won't,
and then they provide a handful of the worst of
the worst criminal illegal aliens, including murderers, rapists, and pedophiles
who were released back on to the streets in this
state because of what they say sanctuary policies. They list
Jordan Renato Castillo Chavez from Costa Rica arrested for indecent
liberties with a child, first degree sexual exploitation of a minor,
attempted statutory sexual offense with a child less than fifteen
years old, and solicitation of a child by a computer.
He was released after authorities failed to honor the ICE detainer.
Jose Ulloa Martinez, a criminal illegal alien from Honduras, was
arrested for murder. He was released after authorities failed to
honor the ICE detainer. Osmann Armando Pasarties, a criminal illegal
alien also from Honduras, was arrested. I shouldn't do the
sen that's more like it's more of a Middle Eastern pronunciation.
Speaker 1: I think so andorras. Here you go.
Speaker 2: He was arrested for statutory sex offense with a child,
in decent liberties with a child, sex acts by a substitute,
parent or custodian. He was released after authorities failed to
honor the ICE detainer. Jefferson Moyses Martinez Soto, also from Honduras,
sexual battery, resisting an officer, fleeing, and diluting arrest with
a motor vehicle. Also released by local authorities who did
not honor the ICE detainer request. William Santos Rocca from
Guatemala arrested for carrying a concealed weapon. The next day
arrested for a DWI. He had a previous arrest for
a hit and run and multiple dwi's also released. Carlos
Manuel Pertilla Corvara, criminal alien from l Salvador, was a
rec for carrying a concealed weapon and discharge of a weapon.
He also was released despite a detainer request. Olivian Isau
Kilero Martinez, criminal alien from Honduras, a career criminal history
which includes vehicle theft, larceny, trespassing, burglary, forced entry, property damage,
possession of stolen property, and drug possession also released. These
are the people that DHS highlighted, and every single time
you notice in that press release, every single time they
refer to the targets as what criminal illegal aliens, that's
what they're targeting. Now that being said, if they come
across you and they ask you for documentation, you should
provide that to them. In fact, I know you guys
aren't big on following the law and all, but it
is actually the law.
Speaker 1: Did you know that?
Speaker 2: So the guy who had his window busted out because
he was, you know, creating the viral video moment, hah,
I'm here legally. I have a Green card or whatever
it is. Or maybe he was a naturalized citizen. I
forget what his status was, but he was here legally,
but he refused to comply with the border patrol agents.
He kept his window up and locked his doors and
would not get out of the car, and so they
busted out his window. If he had just shown you
your documents, then you'd have been fine. I don't want
to live in a country where the government can just
walk around and demand your papers.
Speaker 1: You already do? You already do?
Speaker 2: In fact, it's one of the requirements when you get here.
Like legal immigrants in the US, including non immigrants and
law awful permanent residence, Green card holders are required by
law to carry proof of their identity and legal status
at all times. At all times, you're already supposed to
be doing that. But once again, I understand, you know,
you're out there advocating for the laws not to be enforced,
So I understand why you might have this notion that,
you know, laws aren't to be enforced or something. This
applies to all non citizens present in the country in
a legal status, and failure to carry and produce these
documents can result in a criminal offense, a misdemeanor.
Speaker 1: That's the existing law. But outrage.
Speaker 2: We had one protester screaming in one of these videos
from Charlotte, you know, because the protesters are swarming wherever
they can find the Customs and Border patrol operators. They
swarm all around them and they harass them and stuff,
and one of them actually screamed, no one is illegal
on stolen land.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: I'm not trying to wrap my mind around that argument.
No one is illegal on stolen land. Well, what about
when the people who like Native Americans, wouldn't they be
like if they're the rightful owners. Although my understanding is
that like they would fight each other for, you know,
for for you know, hunting grounds and that sort of stuff.
Speaker 1: They wore each other all the time.
Speaker 2: Also, yeah, I'm trying to think like the Spanish Europeans,
like they did a lot of conquering, So I don't know,
like who do we return the land to?
Speaker 1: Does that mean like no illegal activity?
Speaker 2: Like even if I'm a criminal alien and I'm engaging
in crimes or something, does that mean like there's no
law on stolen land. It's very very confusing, this philosophy.
No one is illegal on stolen land. I mean, that's
basically a recipe for no law. So at the Charlotte Observer,
they had a bunch of articles about this all over
the all over their website. I was gonna say the
front page, but I don't know if anybody actually gets
the dead Tree copy anymore. A second consecutive day of
masked Federal Border Patrol agents in the Charlotte area Sunday
led to more arrests and community concern around the region,
with no indication when the government activity will end. I
remember when I was growing up, I would see movies
of immigration raids like this would be in the movies
and TV shows. You would just see it. It was
like a normal part of law enforcement. A raid on
a business and then they bust for you know, bringing
in ilegal labor.
Speaker 1: It's only been the.
Speaker 2: Last twenty five years that this has kind of been normalized.

let me get to some messages here. Seven oh four five,
seven oh eleven ten is the call in number. It
is also the WBT text line driven by Liberty Buick GMC.
And this is from the text line. Uh, actually, hang
on a second, let me scroll down to here and.
Speaker 1: There.
Speaker 2: Sorry, this from Joe. All legal immigrants that are protesting
and making this more than it is can thank their
fellow countrymen who have illegally entered here for making ice
having to show up here and everywhere else. Right, Like
this is We talked about this on Friday, right, I said,
this is the response to the policy or a lack
of enforcement of the policy of the law, not just
in the Biden administration, but among local law enforcement officials
like our own sheriff Gary not my fault McFadden, right,
who ran on the platform of scrapping the two eighty
seven g program which was used to and is used
by like the vast majority of sheriffs in the state
of North Carolina. And now, by the way, I've got
another press release I'll get to. They're going to use
that to try to track down all of the unaccompanied
miners that the administration, the previous administration allowed to be
released to sex traffickers and you know, criminals and such,
and then they lost track of all of these kids.
So McFadden ran on this platform. He wasn't the only one.
All of the sheriffs that won was a twenty eighteen
on the platform of breaking ties with ICE and two
eighty seven G was just a way. It basically gave
the sheriff's deputies access to the ICE databases so they
could screen people and find out their actual identity and
whether or not they're in the country illegally after they've
been arrested.
Speaker 1: And this was too much. How dare you right?
Speaker 2: Some guy just got pulled over for his seventh duy.
We don't need to be deporting him. This guy just
whipped up on his girlfriend. We don't need to deport him. Oh,
that guy's just stalking his ex girlfriend. We don't need
to deport him. That's what they got arrested for. But
it's not violent, you know, it's just stalking. It's just dui.
So the second consecutive day, as the Charlotte Observer details,
this was in the story from yesterday. So they started Saturday,
they continued Sunday, they did, they're continuing today as we speak. Oh,
By the way, Ice, you might want to go check
out East Yeah, East Mech. I don't know what time
it's going to happen. Oh, maybe it already happened.
Speaker 1: Eight am. Yeah, may have already happened.
Speaker 2: The East Mech walk out a student walkout, So you
just stand outside the school. No, no, no, they're not
going into the schools. But if the kids come out,
you know, depending on like if they're on the sidewalk.
Speaker 1: Maybe no, I'm kidding.
Speaker 2: Students at East Mech High planned a school wide walkout
as a form of protest of ICE being unwanted here.
The student's main objective is to provide protection and cover
to their fellow students of immigrant discent. I'm sorry, fellow
students of immigrant decent. Oh gosh, I don't know who
wrote this, but it is attributed to Joe Culman or
Coleman from the Evening Muse. Isn't that a Is that
a bar restaurant? Or is it like a poetry slam
place in No Dah Evening Muse. Either way, Like, I
don't know who wrote it, but like this is not
a You're obviously not learning the language very well if
you're sending out a press release, and it's not the
only one. It's not the only typo in the press
release either. But this is a new term too, students
of immigrant dissent, which is what they meant to say,
not immigrant decent. The students have organized a plan to
wear all black today as well. They've also asked for
support from parents, faculty, and staff. This is an extremely
important human interest piece considering our youth are taking it
amongst themselves. No, they would be taking can get upon themselves.
It would take it upon themselves to stand up to
this invasive government agency. Okay, spoiler alert. All government agencies
are invasive. That's what government is. So when right, so
when you advocate for more laws to be passed and such,
always remember that when you pass laws, you have to
have law enforcement agents that then go out and invasively
enforce that law. So just may want to consider that
going forward. You know, when you're when you want government
to do more and more and more stuff. So that
was their announcement. I guess had already happened tod eight am.
I don't know, Yeah, I don't know if it happened
or not at East Mech. Anybody with East Mech ties
let me know if the walkout happened so exciting. Do
you ever have a walkout in your school? That was
a big deal. That was a big deal. It was
because when and oh gosh, I'm drawing a blank. The
Wonder Years, the TV show The Wonder Years, and Kevin,
the main character, walked out of his classroom on this
day when they were planning to do a walkout, but
he actually just went to the bathroom and it prompted
the walkout. And after that episode aired then it was like,
we're going to do a walk out for this or
for that. Everybody was talking walkout, So it just thanks
a lot Wonder Years. Here's a great idea. How about

formerly known as x did you notice how many firearms
charges were on that list from the Department of Homeland
Security that you read? Where Gifford's every town, USA? Et al?
Speaker 3: Right?
Speaker 2: Where are all the gun control groups? I heard a
lot of end of the world hysteria from them when
the state was considering constitutional carry. Not a peepe about
failure to prosecute firearms charges for illegal aliens and other criminals. Though, Yeah,
they never talk about that topic. It's always it's always,
you know, gun control laws. We want to take guns
from the legal gun owners. They never focus on cracking
down on, you know, felons with firearms. Rand says, Pete.
Been listening to your show since you were up in Ashville.
Speaker 1: Well, thank you.
Speaker 2: The reporting at the top of the hour news doesn't
mention the level of criminals that you are citing on
your broadcast. Why do you suppose that is Well, I
mean I just read from the DHS press release and
the newscast. I mean they've only got like two minutes
to run through a bunch of stories. You know, you
are citing the facts from the Boyd to Patrol news release.
Appreciate your show. I'm a good fan. I'll be the
judge of that. No, I'm kidding, I appreciate that.
Speaker 1: Let me see here.
Speaker 2: This is from Tim regarding Ice and Charlotte. They have
arrested something over one hundred illegals. I read over the
weekend that it's estimated there were fifty eight thousand in
Mecklemburg County. No wonder that we hear about hit and
runs every day on wbt's traffic reports. Well, now, come on,
North Carolina has its share of terrible drivers too. Don't
even get me started on all the people from South
Carolina's I'm kidding. I'm just kidding. Bad drivers. No, no ethnicity.
Speaker 1: Or state restraints, you know.
Speaker 2: But yes, that is a problem for insurance rates when
you have people who don't have in insurance and you
have people who aren't you know, carrying insurance, they get
into a car accident, they flee the scene because they're
afraid of being arrested and deported. Yeah, that's that's been
a problem for decades. I've told this story before I
was a reporter here at BT. This would have been
probably some time around early two thousands, when after nine
to eleven, people became became aware of and then outraged
by the fact that these terrorists were, you know, allowed
to come into the country and overstay their visas. And
all of a sudden, people started paying attention to immigration,
and there were all of these news stories that started
coming out. And back then, like the news reporters would
identify if somebody was an illegal alien in their stories.
If somebody is getting arrested, you know, charged with you know,
some vehicular crime or something, they we would put that
into the news stories that was reportable and reported. Not
so much anymore, not so much anymore. But I remember
going to Gaston County. Congresswoman Sue Myrak was there. Sheriff
Jim Pendergraph from Mecklenburg went out there, if I recall correctly,
and they had like a community meeting to talk about
illegal immigration, and there was a family. They went to
Gastonia I believe it was Gastonia and where Myrak had
an office, and there was a because there was a
couple from Gastonia or Gaston County rather, who had been
killed in a car accident down at the beach by
an illegal alien. I believe he was drunk at the
time and killed this like family. So like, this is
not a new thing. It's been going on for decades literally,
and so yeah, like this is why you're seeing the
enforcement now. This is what this is what should have
been occurring, And the reason why it looks like it
does right now is because it wasn't occurring for so
long and By the way, if you're a business and
you're in the news talking about how half your staff
isn't showing up because they're afraid of they're afraid of
being deported, do you realize you are admitting to a crime.
You're employing these people. It's illegal, Jay says. The lady
who owns my house cleaning service texted me today saying
the ladies are too afraid to head out this week
to clean houses. Imagine my shock when I found out
I was employing an illegal alien.
Speaker 1: Lamma. So yeah, yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 2: When this became like acceptable to just say, oh, yeah,
you know, we have a very large illegal workforce, we
employ illegal aliens, and then to tell reporters this and
have it reported in the news and people think that, like,
I guess there's no ramifications for that.
Speaker 1: I guess not.
Speaker 2: Early Sunday morning, Greg Bovino, the Border Patrol official leading
the operation in Charlotte as well as other cities, posted
on Twitter that Border Patrol agents arrested eighty one people
in the Charlotte area over five hours on Saturday. He
said many of those taken in had significant criminal and
immigration history. Although it was not immediately possible to independently
verify that assessment. One advocacy group, Cimbra ANDC decried the
government's actions as a quote day of shame. Why why
is it a day of shame? Why is law enforcement shameful?
Why is enforcing law shameful? It is not shameful. What's
shameful is the is the blind eye that has and
turned to this issue by politicians, administrations, business owners and
citizens of America. Again that you're seeing this operation like
it looks now, we're seeing it because of the lack
of enforcement for decades. Y'all brought this on yourselves, like
you local officials, the scrapped cooperation with two eighty seven
G and with Ice and all of that. You know,
set up these sanctuary cities and such, and you made
it all welcoming and inclusive and no human is illegal
and all of that. You created the magnet. You drew
a lot of people here, and now you're drawing the enforcement.
All right, if you're listening to this show, you know
I try to keep up with all sorts of current events,
and I know you do too, And you've probably heard
me say get your news from multiple sources. Why, well,
because it's how you detect media bias, which is why
I've been so impressed with ground News. It's an app,
and it's a website, and it combines news from around
the world in one place, so you can compare coverage
and verify information. You can check it out at check
dot ground, dot news slash pete. I put the link
in the podcast description too. I started using ground News
a few months ago and more recently chose to work
with them as an affiliate because it lets me see
clearly how stories get covered and by whom. The blind

Over the weekend near University City in Charlotte. Up there
at the University area, a US citizen weaponized his vehicle,
driving a large van directly at CBP law enforcement while
they were conducting an operation. He and there's video went
viral over the weekend of the van trying to run
over and then escape these agents. He fled the scene,
starting a dangerous high speed chase through a densely populated area.
During the chase, he attempted to ram into law enforcement vehicles,
posing a serious public safety threat. As agents were boxing
him in, the driver proceeded to ram law enforcement vehicles
in an attempt to escape. When the driver was arrested,
a firearm was found in the vehicle. One law enforcement
officer was injured. The perpetrator, according to Homeland Security, has
prior arrests for resisting law enforcement, public disturbance, and intoxication
disruptive conduct. Meanwhile, from dhs I mentioned this earlier pulled
out the press release here. US Immigration and Customs Enforcement
launched an initiative within North Carolina as well as other
states all of their two eighty seven g partners aimed
at protecting the four hundred and fifty thousand unaccompanied children
or UACs illegally smuggled over the border and placed with
unvetted sponsors under the Biden administration. This new law enforcement partnership,
known as the UAC Safety Verification Initiative, represents ICE's commitment
to protect vulnerable children from sexual abuse and exploitation through
collaboration with two eighty seven G law enforcement partners. The
primary focus of this initiative is to conduct welfare checks
on these kids to ensure that they are safe and
not being exploited. Secretary Nome this support to Assistant Secretary
Tricia McLaughlin. Nome is leading efforts to rescue and stop
the exploitation of these kids. Many of the kids who
came across the border unaccompanied were allowed to be placed
with sponsors who were smugglers and sex traffickers. The Trump
administration has located more than twenty four thousand, four hundred
of these children in person in America through visits and
door knocks, and then they give examples. The UAC Safety
Verification Initiative began on November tenth in the state of
Florida and is now rolling out with other two eighty
seven G partners across the country. Examples of ICE administrative
immigration arrests based on sponsors criminal activities. They've got cases
out of Arizona, Florida, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Texas, Georgia, Maryland, Massachusetts, Nevada,
New York, and here in North Carolina. ICE arrested a
Guatemalan alien sponsor who had been criminally arrested by North
Carolina law enforcement for attempted murder. All right, let me
head over to the phone line, said Jim, Welcome to
the show.
Speaker 3: Hey, you were talking about the local officials allowing this
to happen. Yes, well, the local official that turned Mikelenburg
County into the disaster it is as far as the
two eighty seven G program is Gary mcfadd. Correct.
Speaker 2: Yeah, he ran in twenty eighteen on the platform to
scrap it, and then he immediately did when he got elected.
He ran on the platform that it was racist, didn't
he didn't have like a celebration cake or something, and
then he cut into it or something.
Speaker 1: They chopped it up.
Speaker 3: Well, he was He was such a wonderful individual because
it had up until then the Sheriff's office had all
He's honored immigration detainers and Sheriff Pendergraph joined the two
eighty seven G program. Sheriff Bailey kept it up, Sheriff
Carmichael kept it up, and it was a functional program
that got criminal illegals back into the hands of immigration.
And McFadden not only did he scrap the two eighty
seven G program. He has never in his entire time
in there ever honored an immigration detainer.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Yeah, no, Remember Jim Pendograph implemented the two eighty seven
G program. We were one of the first counties in
the country to do it. And then he took a
job with the Trump with the Bush, the George W.
Bush administration, even though he was a Democrat, and he
flew all over the country helping other sheriff's offices set
up two eighty seven G programs for themselves and it got.
Speaker 3: The criminals who were illegally in the country out of
the country. Yeah, it was functional.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Jim, I appreciate the call man. Thank you.
Speaker 2: I'm gonna get to ed on here. I only got
about thirty seconds, but you got it. Add thirty seconds.
Speaker 3: What is formally undocumented mean with the city council member here?
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, the guy who just won the seat for
city council. He was brought here as an illegally. He
was an illegal alien. But according to him, he has
been naturalized now he is a citizen as of I
think twenty twenty one.
Speaker 3: I'd like to see that. I also like to see
if he signed up the selective service.
Speaker 1: Yeah, fairpoint ed. Thanks for the call. Yeah, I appreciate it.
Speaker 2: I do have something from him, but he yeah, he
says he got his citizenship in twenty twenty one and
it's JD.
Speaker 1: I forget his I forget his name. It's in my
stack of stuff here though.
