WEBVTT 1 00:00:28.399 --> 00:00:33.359 And hello, how are you. Huh it's Monday. Oh yeah, 2 00:00:33.439 --> 00:00:36.799 welcome to the Big Podcast Monday. Today's twenty first day 3 00:00:37.039 --> 00:00:40.560 of July. Year of Our Lord, twenty twenty five. My 4 00:00:40.679 --> 00:00:43.880 name is Tom Sullivan. So where do you want to 5 00:00:43.880 --> 00:00:46.280 start today? Boys and girls. No, Epstein is still you know, 6 00:00:46.359 --> 00:00:48.479 it's still in the news. But that's not to start 7 00:00:48.520 --> 00:00:53.600 with today. We've got more on immigration and shooting of 8 00:00:53.640 --> 00:00:58.280 an immigration officer over the weekend in New York. We've 9 00:00:58.320 --> 00:01:01.039 got what else do we have got to I want 10 00:01:01.079 --> 00:01:06.519 to start with Tulsey Gabbard. Tolsey, you know, she's the 11 00:01:06.519 --> 00:01:13.280 Director of National Intelligence, and she now openly accuses Barack 12 00:01:13.319 --> 00:01:18.840 Obama of a long standing effort to overthrow Donald Trump, 13 00:01:19.959 --> 00:01:27.599 basically a coup, and talks about treasonous conspiracy theories. It's 14 00:01:27.599 --> 00:01:31.079 all about the Russian Russian Russian interference in the twenty 15 00:01:31.599 --> 00:01:35.280 sixteen election. And there's no question the Russians have been 16 00:01:35.319 --> 00:01:39.879 interfering in our elections long before twenty sixteen. They go 17 00:01:39.959 --> 00:01:44.040 back long before the Internet. So there's there's literally nothing 18 00:01:44.239 --> 00:01:49.599 new about all of that. I saw one of the 19 00:01:49.959 --> 00:01:54.560 on X. I put it on my I've reposted it 20 00:01:54.640 --> 00:01:58.239 so it would show up, but it was from Matt Walsh, 21 00:01:58.319 --> 00:02:05.120 and Matt Walsh said, unpopular opinion, But I don't care 22 00:02:05.400 --> 00:02:10.680 about this unless they actually arrest and prosecute the culprits, 23 00:02:11.199 --> 00:02:17.360 including Obama, you cannot allege a treasonous conspiracy and they 24 00:02:17.479 --> 00:02:21.360 do nothing about it. The typical pattern by Republicans since 25 00:02:21.400 --> 00:02:26.039 forever is to make these kinds of claims, which I 26 00:02:26.080 --> 00:02:28.280 don't doubt, by the way, but to make them on 27 00:02:28.360 --> 00:02:31.479 Twitter and Fox News and never actually bring it to 28 00:02:31.560 --> 00:02:34.599 a court of law so the party is responsible, can 29 00:02:34.639 --> 00:02:37.360 be held accountable for their crimes. I'm tired of it. 30 00:02:38.120 --> 00:02:41.120 Go arrest these people and bring them to justice, then 31 00:02:41.199 --> 00:02:45.759 I'll care. If you won't do that, then what does 32 00:02:45.800 --> 00:02:51.439 any of this matter? And I thought his tweet was 33 00:02:52.759 --> 00:02:54.639 it was my favorite one of all the difference because 34 00:02:54.680 --> 00:02:57.479 a lot of reaction about all of this and what 35 00:02:57.639 --> 00:03:00.479 Tulsea Gabbert has said she's done, She's done a criminal 36 00:03:00.520 --> 00:03:05.319 referral to the Justice Department about all of this, and 37 00:03:06.080 --> 00:03:10.439 what Matt Walsh is saying is, well, let's let's see 38 00:03:10.680 --> 00:03:15.039 if the Justice Department does anything. Will Pam BONDI will 39 00:03:15.080 --> 00:03:17.560 the Justice Department supposed to be so political, you know, 40 00:03:18.319 --> 00:03:20.879 are they going to actually do something? Do they really 41 00:03:20.919 --> 00:03:23.400 think this is a crime. So let's start off with 42 00:03:24.439 --> 00:03:27.199 Pelsea Gabbard and here's what she had to say. 43 00:03:27.639 --> 00:03:29.639 We had a sitting president of the United States and 44 00:03:29.680 --> 00:03:32.879 his cabinet and leadership team, quite frankly, who were not 45 00:03:33.080 --> 00:03:36.159 happy with the fact that President Trump had won the election, 46 00:03:36.360 --> 00:03:39.599 and so they decided that they would do everything possible 47 00:03:40.000 --> 00:03:43.159 to try to undermine his ability to do what voters 48 00:03:43.280 --> 00:03:45.560 task President Trump to do. 49 00:03:46.319 --> 00:03:48.400 So the way in and all this, let's start with 50 00:03:48.479 --> 00:03:51.919 Mark Theeson, former speech writer for w. 51 00:03:52.000 --> 00:03:54.240 Yeah, so this is really very important to get to 52 00:03:54.280 --> 00:03:55.800 the bottom of this because this is one of the 53 00:03:55.800 --> 00:03:59.280 worst political spannels of our lifetime. We were to, you know, 54 00:03:59.280 --> 00:04:01.800 for we spend two years and tens of millions of 55 00:04:01.840 --> 00:04:05.039 dollars investigating what turned out to be a conspiracy theory, 56 00:04:05.039 --> 00:04:07.199 which is that Donald Trump colluded with Russia to steal 57 00:04:07.199 --> 00:04:10.879 the twenty sixteen election. And it turned out it wasn't true. 58 00:04:10.919 --> 00:04:12.599 And there were a lot of Democrats were pushing this, 59 00:04:12.759 --> 00:04:14.680 a lot of people in the media were pushing it. 60 00:04:14.719 --> 00:04:16.879 But what was most insidious were the people in the 61 00:04:16.920 --> 00:04:20.920 intelligence community who would would basically were telling the American 62 00:04:20.959 --> 00:04:25.360 people a pernicious lie, which is you can't see it, 63 00:04:25.399 --> 00:04:29.279 but we've seen secret intelligence that suggests that the president 64 00:04:29.360 --> 00:04:33.040 was conspiring with Russia to steal the election, and it 65 00:04:33.120 --> 00:04:37.240 wasn't true. And you Brennan was one of the worst 66 00:04:37.279 --> 00:04:41.439 people involved in this. He called Trump a trader, said 67 00:04:41.439 --> 00:04:43.399 he had conducted, he had committed treason, that he was 68 00:04:43.439 --> 00:04:46.000 an agent of the of the Russian regime. And this 69 00:04:46.519 --> 00:04:49.480 is really bad because it calls in the question the 70 00:04:50.160 --> 00:04:52.759 intelligence community's credibility. And so we got to get to 71 00:04:52.800 --> 00:04:54.600 the bottom of who did this, who is behind it, 72 00:04:54.920 --> 00:04:57.480 and find out why and called them out. 73 00:04:58.079 --> 00:05:01.399 Well, speaking of Democrats and the Intel Committee, Jim Hines, 74 00:05:01.480 --> 00:05:06.879 Congressman from Connecticut, is the ranking member of the House 75 00:05:06.959 --> 00:05:09.800 Intelligence Committee, and this is his reaction. 76 00:05:10.040 --> 00:05:12.959 What you saw from the Director of National Intelligence, Tulsea 77 00:05:13.000 --> 00:05:16.879 Gabbard was not just a lie, but a very dangerous lie, 78 00:05:16.920 --> 00:05:20.680 because when you start throwing around language like sedition and treason, 79 00:05:21.120 --> 00:05:22.279 somebody's going to get hurt. 80 00:05:22.560 --> 00:05:25.240 Okay, So who do you believe, you believe the Democrat, 81 00:05:25.240 --> 00:05:27.759 the ranking member of the Intelligence Committee, or do you 82 00:05:27.800 --> 00:05:32.920 believe Tulci Gabbert, the Director of National Intelligence. Well back 83 00:05:32.959 --> 00:05:34.040 to Mark THESM for his. 84 00:05:34.480 --> 00:05:38.920 Reaction, So I'm sorry. John Brennan accused Donald Trump of treason. 85 00:05:39.759 --> 00:05:43.600 Adam Schiff accused Donald Trump of treason. Eric Swalwell said 86 00:05:43.639 --> 00:05:46.000 he was an agent of a foreign power. So for 87 00:05:46.040 --> 00:05:49.040 them to say that Tulsi Gabbert is politicizing intelligence, they 88 00:05:49.120 --> 00:05:53.120 weaponized intelligence against the president of the United States. And look, 89 00:05:54.040 --> 00:05:56.240 there's two different things that are going on here. There's 90 00:05:56.279 --> 00:05:58.759 the question of whether Russia tried to interfere in the 91 00:05:58.800 --> 00:06:02.000 twenty sixteen election, would they did, and would I would 92 00:06:02.040 --> 00:06:06.040 remind everyone that Donald Trump launched a cyber attack against 93 00:06:06.120 --> 00:06:09.879 the troll farm in Saint Petersburg responsible for that election interference. 94 00:06:09.920 --> 00:06:12.399 So Donald Trump actually was the one taking that more 95 00:06:12.439 --> 00:06:15.199 seriously than the Democrats. Donald Barack Obama didn't do that. 96 00:06:15.439 --> 00:06:17.959 But there's the question of whether Donald Trump conspired with 97 00:06:18.040 --> 00:06:21.120 Russia in that interference to help it to steal the election, 98 00:06:21.199 --> 00:06:23.680 which has been proven to be an absolute lie. 99 00:06:23.879 --> 00:06:25.680 And the Democrats pushed. 100 00:06:25.319 --> 00:06:30.639 That lie all the you know, Blumenthal, Warner, a Shift, 101 00:06:31.160 --> 00:06:34.480 Swallwell all went out and said there was evidence, secret 102 00:06:34.519 --> 00:06:37.000 evidence that Donald Trump had conspired with Russia, and it 103 00:06:37.120 --> 00:06:39.519 wasn't true, and we need to find out what the 104 00:06:39.560 --> 00:06:42.560 source of those lies are, what were they seeing if 105 00:06:42.600 --> 00:06:44.639 they did see anything in the intelligence community that turned 106 00:06:44.639 --> 00:06:46.480 out to be false, So we can get so we 107 00:06:46.519 --> 00:06:49.439 can restore the credibility of the intelligence community. Yeah, so 108 00:06:50.800 --> 00:06:53.480 CIA Director Ratcliff actually just put out a report on this, 109 00:06:53.879 --> 00:06:57.120 and what if you look at that report, the evidence 110 00:06:57.199 --> 00:07:00.480 for the interference, the idea that they that they were 111 00:07:00.519 --> 00:07:03.759 interfering the election is clear, but whether they favored Trump. 112 00:07:03.959 --> 00:07:06.120 A lot of that was driven by the Steele dossier. 113 00:07:06.199 --> 00:07:08.439 And there was a huge fight within the intelligence community 114 00:07:08.480 --> 00:07:10.879 about whether to include the Steele dossier, which was paid 115 00:07:10.920 --> 00:07:14.480 for by the Clinton campaign, which was political opposition research 116 00:07:14.519 --> 00:07:17.160 that turned out to be untrue, to include that in 117 00:07:17.279 --> 00:07:21.199 the intelligence assessment of the intelligence agencies. And it was 118 00:07:21.240 --> 00:07:25.279 the FBI and Brennan who were pushing to included and 119 00:07:25.319 --> 00:07:28.079 the intelligence professionals were saying, that doesn't it's not it 120 00:07:28.120 --> 00:07:30.079 shouldn't be in there. So we need to get to 121 00:07:30.079 --> 00:07:31.040 the bottom of that as well. 122 00:07:31.519 --> 00:07:34.839 So who do you believe? You got Thesian on one side, 123 00:07:34.920 --> 00:07:37.680 You've got all kinds of accusations, You've got Jim Hines 124 00:07:37.720 --> 00:07:42.600 on the other side, Matt Tayeeb, who is the independent journalist. 125 00:07:42.680 --> 00:07:45.839 He's the guy, one of the two that Elon must 126 00:07:45.879 --> 00:07:48.160 brought in to open up the files of Twitter when 127 00:07:48.160 --> 00:07:52.680 he bought it. So he professes to be an independent journalist. 128 00:07:53.040 --> 00:07:55.560 Let's see what Matt Tayeebe has to say, because he's 129 00:07:55.600 --> 00:07:57.360 looked into this as well. 130 00:07:58.000 --> 00:07:58.240 Sure. 131 00:07:58.319 --> 00:08:02.639 So, the last major revelation that came out was that 132 00:08:04.079 --> 00:08:08.839 John Brennan and James Comey were the focus of criminal 133 00:08:08.839 --> 00:08:12.040 investigations that have been opened by the Justice Department. But 134 00:08:12.120 --> 00:08:15.160 these new documents that were released by Tulca, Gabbard and 135 00:08:15.199 --> 00:08:19.000 the Director of National Intelligence make it clear that the 136 00:08:19.040 --> 00:08:23.319 investigation is now aimed at the Obama White House, and 137 00:08:23.360 --> 00:08:26.720 in particular at Barack Obama because of decisions that were 138 00:08:26.759 --> 00:08:31.240 made in early December of twenty sixteen to suppress the 139 00:08:31.279 --> 00:08:36.039 Presidential DL briefing and go ahead and order a new 140 00:08:36.080 --> 00:08:40.159 intelligence community assessment that ultimately would have much more aggressive 141 00:08:40.200 --> 00:08:43.559 conclusions about Trump and Russia. Yeah, that's a complaint. I 142 00:08:43.600 --> 00:08:46.120 heard a lot over the weekend from people who have 143 00:08:46.279 --> 00:08:48.639 been following this, and even from former. 144 00:08:49.960 --> 00:08:53.360 Officials who are close to Trump. There. 145 00:08:53.639 --> 00:08:55.919 One of them said to me, a former high ranking 146 00:08:55.919 --> 00:09:00.159 Trump official said there was quote so much corruption and 147 00:09:00.399 --> 00:09:04.080 the last Trump presidency, that this shouldn't have been overlooked, 148 00:09:04.080 --> 00:09:07.600 that these documents should have come out. Absolutely, But the 149 00:09:07.639 --> 00:09:10.159 overall sense I get is that everyone's happy that they 150 00:09:10.200 --> 00:09:13.480 finally are coming out and they're looking forward to what 151 00:09:13.600 --> 00:09:15.159 is likely to come out this week. 152 00:09:15.519 --> 00:09:16.840 So it's both. 153 00:09:17.759 --> 00:09:19.919 The Democrats are making a lot of hey over this 154 00:09:20.000 --> 00:09:23.679 apples and oranges issue. That there was never any question 155 00:09:23.759 --> 00:09:28.039 that they didn't actually change vote tallies, but they did 156 00:09:28.159 --> 00:09:31.720 influence the election. Actually, there was some question about whether 157 00:09:31.759 --> 00:09:34.639 they had the ability to influence the election. There were 158 00:09:34.720 --> 00:09:38.399 quotes earlier from that from that year with the FBI 159 00:09:38.480 --> 00:09:41.279 saying they didn't have any evidence that they had done so, 160 00:09:41.399 --> 00:09:44.759 and they were uncomfortable making that statement. There were also 161 00:09:45.360 --> 00:09:49.480 quotes saying that they lacked evidence that Russia had the 162 00:09:49.519 --> 00:09:52.519 ability to out to impact the outcome of the election. 163 00:09:52.919 --> 00:09:55.639 So all of this would have been passed on to 164 00:09:56.240 --> 00:10:01.200 somebody like Michael Flynn because presidents elect entitled to receive 165 00:10:01.240 --> 00:10:04.159 the Presidential Daily Briefing. That's why this is important. It's 166 00:10:04.200 --> 00:10:07.000 not so much what the PDB did say, it's what 167 00:10:07.080 --> 00:10:08.879 it didn't say. It didn't say that there was a 168 00:10:08.879 --> 00:10:12.320 sweeping conspiracy to help Trump and if they had that, 169 00:10:12.559 --> 00:10:15.360 it would have been a very different political picture going forward. 170 00:10:15.720 --> 00:10:18.200 So now we wait and we watched to see what happened. 171 00:10:18.240 --> 00:10:22.559 Since Telti Gabber gave a criminal referral to the DOJ, 172 00:10:23.639 --> 00:10:28.799 will they actually do anything? As Matt Walsh previously said, 173 00:10:28.840 --> 00:10:32.000 And if they don't, I'm kind of with him. You know, 174 00:10:32.720 --> 00:10:36.480 it's fascinating, but you need to have you need to 175 00:10:36.480 --> 00:10:42.080 bring it to court. And this could mean bringing former 176 00:10:42.120 --> 00:10:46.279 President Barack Obama into court and flushing this out to 177 00:10:46.320 --> 00:10:49.200 find out just exactly what happened. As far as the 178 00:10:49.240 --> 00:10:51.840 election goes, I think it was clear the Russians they've 179 00:10:51.840 --> 00:10:56.000 always interfered with our elections. They've tried. Did they change 180 00:10:56.039 --> 00:11:02.240 the outcome of the vote? I don't think so. It's 181 00:11:02.279 --> 00:11:06.360 not that it's the question about There were meetings in 182 00:11:06.399 --> 00:11:09.279 the Oval Office with Barack Obama and his top people, 183 00:11:09.320 --> 00:11:11.960 and they were worried because Donald Trump had been elected, 184 00:11:12.600 --> 00:11:15.320 and they were worried about what should we share with 185 00:11:15.440 --> 00:11:19.240 him as far as our national intelligence. He's the elected, 186 00:11:19.639 --> 00:11:23.360 he's the president elect, and they were worried about should 187 00:11:23.399 --> 00:11:26.919 we share with him any of our national intelligence? So 188 00:11:27.480 --> 00:11:30.600 something was up. They did not like the results. Obviously 189 00:11:30.639 --> 00:11:33.840 they were hoping for Hillary and they got Donald Trump. 190 00:11:34.600 --> 00:11:38.440 So will they bring it to court or not? Will 191 00:11:38.480 --> 00:11:42.320 this wind up in front of a judge? I kind 192 00:11:42.320 --> 00:11:46.480 of hope, so I would love to find out what 193 00:11:46.639 --> 00:11:50.879 this is all about in an impartial courtroom. So that's 194 00:11:51.000 --> 00:11:57.960 the big stinker that started off this Monday. Immigration is 195 00:11:58.000 --> 00:12:02.399 another big stinker because over the weekend, there was a 196 00:12:02.799 --> 00:12:07.240 off duty a Border Patrol officer UH and a friend. 197 00:12:07.240 --> 00:12:13.360 They were over by the Hudson River in area of 198 00:12:13.399 --> 00:12:17.480 New York City that is considered to be fairly safe, 199 00:12:17.519 --> 00:12:21.879 but it's it's in a park area, and it's at 200 00:12:22.000 --> 00:12:24.480 late at night. I forget it was before midnight or 201 00:12:24.559 --> 00:12:26.279 after midnight, but it was right. I think it was 202 00:12:26.320 --> 00:12:27.919 after midnight, but it was the middle of the night, 203 00:12:28.320 --> 00:12:31.039 and I'm thinking, what was he doing there with his friend? 204 00:12:32.320 --> 00:12:35.679 It's dangerous. I mean, you got to you can't be stupid. 205 00:12:36.240 --> 00:12:39.480 So these two guys stop and they tried to rob 206 00:12:39.799 --> 00:12:45.919 the Border patrol guy and guns came out and the 207 00:12:45.919 --> 00:12:48.879 Border Patrol officer was shot right in the face. He's alive, 208 00:12:50.159 --> 00:12:54.720 but now the investigation is to who were the robbers. Well, 209 00:12:54.759 --> 00:12:57.360 they've picked up both of them, and both of them 210 00:12:57.440 --> 00:13:01.919 are illegals, and both of them have been deported numerous 211 00:13:01.960 --> 00:13:06.480 times before. Let's pick this up with Christy Nome, who 212 00:13:06.759 --> 00:13:09.080 came to New York City today to basically hold a 213 00:13:09.120 --> 00:13:10.720 news conference talking about this. 214 00:13:11.279 --> 00:13:13.960 My hope is that this would wake up these individuals 215 00:13:13.960 --> 00:13:16.679 and they would recognize that they can't keep letting these 216 00:13:16.759 --> 00:13:19.919 dangerous criminals go free. They can't continue to let these 217 00:13:19.960 --> 00:13:23.440 individuals be brought in for crimes they're committing against the 218 00:13:23.440 --> 00:13:26.000 public and then releasing them right back onto the streets 219 00:13:26.399 --> 00:13:28.720 with no consequences whatsoever. 220 00:13:29.240 --> 00:13:32.600 So the figure is now being pointed at sanctuary cities, 221 00:13:33.240 --> 00:13:38.279 sanctuary city rules New York City in particular, because of 222 00:13:38.320 --> 00:13:41.200 the fact that they have no cash bail. People get 223 00:13:41.320 --> 00:13:44.559 arrested and they get turned around and sent right back 224 00:13:44.559 --> 00:13:48.240 out of the jail. I mean it's instant, and so 225 00:13:48.399 --> 00:13:51.000 these people know there are no consequences and they go 226 00:13:51.080 --> 00:13:54.240 back out and they commit more crimes. So this particular 227 00:13:54.360 --> 00:13:58.840 crime is who knows how many other crimes these two 228 00:13:58.879 --> 00:14:03.159 guys have committed the past. Here's Tom Holmans, who also 229 00:14:04.000 --> 00:14:06.840 came to New York for the news conference today. 230 00:14:07.279 --> 00:14:11.240 Sanctuary cities are now our priority who's going to flood 231 00:14:11.240 --> 00:14:13.120 his own You don't want to let us in the 232 00:14:13.200 --> 00:14:15.159 jail to arrest a bad guy in the safety and 233 00:14:15.200 --> 00:14:17.600 security of a jail. You want to release them into 234 00:14:17.639 --> 00:14:19.799 the street where he makes it unsafe for the community, 235 00:14:20.000 --> 00:14:22.399 makes it unsafe for the officer, makes it unsafe for 236 00:14:22.440 --> 00:14:22.840 the ailing. 237 00:14:23.360 --> 00:14:25.919 That is the baffling part about all of these sanctuary 238 00:14:25.919 --> 00:14:28.879 city rules is that it would be much safer for 239 00:14:29.000 --> 00:14:31.759 ICE to come over to the jail and take custody 240 00:14:31.799 --> 00:14:34.960 of somebody that's in a local jail in whatever city 241 00:14:35.000 --> 00:14:38.120 it might be, transfer the person into the custody of 242 00:14:38.159 --> 00:14:42.519 ICE and let ICE bring them to a deportation center 243 00:14:42.559 --> 00:14:45.519 and send them out of the country. But no, they 244 00:14:45.519 --> 00:14:47.679 turn them back onto the streets, and then the police 245 00:14:47.799 --> 00:14:50.639 have to get chase him back down again. Ice has 246 00:14:50.679 --> 00:14:53.240 to chase him back down. Then you get all the 247 00:14:53.279 --> 00:14:57.440 people rioting about it. By the way, the whole the 248 00:14:57.559 --> 00:15:03.799 whole h polling about Donald Trump and his efforts to 249 00:15:03.960 --> 00:15:08.559 deport people. It's turning sour on him. It literally is 250 00:15:08.639 --> 00:15:12.639 going south. People are look at it's not a pretty 251 00:15:12.720 --> 00:15:15.919 job to go out and arrest these people. And then 252 00:15:15.960 --> 00:15:19.559 you get them fighting the police and fighting Ice and 253 00:15:19.639 --> 00:15:22.200 people look at that and go, oh, yeah, I want 254 00:15:22.279 --> 00:15:24.879 to deport people that are not supposed to be here, 255 00:15:24.919 --> 00:15:28.519 but oh, that seems awfully harsh. It is a harsh job. 256 00:15:29.399 --> 00:15:32.000 But people are starting to look at it and go, 257 00:15:32.320 --> 00:15:35.639 I don't know about this. I don't like it. This 258 00:15:35.679 --> 00:15:39.600 is where Donald Trump was by far the number one 259 00:15:39.679 --> 00:15:42.919 reason why he was elected. But once the people see 260 00:15:42.960 --> 00:15:49.639 the actual sausage being made, they don't like it. Okay, 261 00:15:49.639 --> 00:15:52.879 so they may not like it to these numbers. This 262 00:15:53.159 --> 00:15:57.039 is a I see the source of this poll to 263 00:15:57.039 --> 00:16:03.440 see an end. Poll says Trump immigration policies increase ICE 264 00:16:03.519 --> 00:16:08.080 budget by billions of dollars. Fifty three percent oppose that, 265 00:16:08.840 --> 00:16:13.320 try to end birthrights citizenship fifty nine percent oppose that, 266 00:16:14.159 --> 00:16:19.240 build new detention centers fifty seven percent oppose that, and 267 00:16:19.320 --> 00:16:24.960 detain undocumented immigrants with no criminal record fifty nine percent 268 00:16:25.159 --> 00:16:28.720 oppose that. So people are going, well, well, what about 269 00:16:28.960 --> 00:16:31.360 these nice people wanted Maria and they just came here 270 00:16:31.399 --> 00:16:34.399 for a better life. They're here illegally and they are 271 00:16:34.440 --> 00:16:36.720 being picked up and being deported, and people are going, 272 00:16:37.440 --> 00:16:39.840 I don't know about that, So I can you can 273 00:16:39.879 --> 00:16:42.799 see it in all the polling. It's all starting to shift. 274 00:16:42.799 --> 00:16:48.840 We'll see how long the public really does turn on 275 00:16:48.919 --> 00:16:53.159 this immigration issue. Ben Dominich, who was the founder of 276 00:16:53.480 --> 00:16:57.440 the Federalists, he had this reaction to what he's watching 277 00:16:57.480 --> 00:17:01.200 as the public is starting to get the heavy GBS 278 00:17:01.240 --> 00:17:02.799 about immigration enforcement. 279 00:17:03.360 --> 00:17:06.359 It really does, and unfortunately, I think that it's events 280 00:17:06.440 --> 00:17:11.519 like this that illustrate for us the terrible consequences of 281 00:17:11.599 --> 00:17:14.359 the decisions that have been made by blue state and 282 00:17:14.400 --> 00:17:18.039 blue city politicians across this country repeatedly when it comes 283 00:17:18.119 --> 00:17:22.200 to allowing this type of criminal element to run rampant 284 00:17:22.400 --> 00:17:26.720 throughout our cities in ways that don't just endanger the people. 285 00:17:26.880 --> 00:17:31.039 They don't just endanger the folks who are just trying 286 00:17:31.079 --> 00:17:34.279 to go about their daily business, endangers everything about our 287 00:17:34.319 --> 00:17:36.720 structure and our way of life. I think that this 288 00:17:36.759 --> 00:17:41.720 is something that is truly almost an act of terror 289 00:17:41.759 --> 00:17:46.400 against community, against neighborhood, against belief that you can walk 290 00:17:46.440 --> 00:17:50.599 along our city streets and neighborhoods without being threatened by 291 00:17:50.599 --> 00:17:53.079 people who should not even be here in the first place, 292 00:17:53.440 --> 00:17:57.640 people who are capable of incredible criminal acts. Look, I 293 00:17:57.720 --> 00:18:02.400 read with disgust this story about the horrible person who 294 00:18:02.720 --> 00:18:06.079 apparently you put this woman in a bleach barrel for 295 00:18:06.119 --> 00:18:08.640 two months. I mean, these are not the kind of 296 00:18:08.640 --> 00:18:11.720 people who we want in our neighborhoods. And so to 297 00:18:11.759 --> 00:18:15.319 have to accept this Democratic fiction that everyone who is 298 00:18:15.359 --> 00:18:19.039 here illegally is somehow just some migrant worker trying to 299 00:18:19.079 --> 00:18:21.599 make their way and have their find their way within 300 00:18:21.640 --> 00:18:24.680 the American dream, and that kind of thing, it's absolute 301 00:18:24.720 --> 00:18:27.519 bs and we shouldn't accept it. These are not people 302 00:18:27.559 --> 00:18:29.240 who should be here. We should be finding them, we 303 00:18:29.279 --> 00:18:31.720 should be rounding them up, and we should be deporting 304 00:18:31.720 --> 00:18:34.400 them as quickly as possible. And frankly, I think that 305 00:18:34.720 --> 00:18:37.200 the key reason that Donald Trump is the president of 306 00:18:37.200 --> 00:18:41.400 the United States today is because he understood this during 307 00:18:41.559 --> 00:18:45.279 the four year period where we saw the rampant illegal 308 00:18:45.599 --> 00:18:47.720 nature of the border under Joe Biden. 309 00:18:48.000 --> 00:18:50.119 No question about it, it was clearly the number one 310 00:18:50.160 --> 00:18:53.440 issue that led Trump voters to vote for Donald Trump. 311 00:18:54.319 --> 00:18:57.039 Back to Ben, I just think that this is a 312 00:18:57.039 --> 00:18:59.720 situation where the Democratic Party needs to understand if they 313 00:18:59.720 --> 00:19:01.440 want to be a majority party, if they want to 314 00:19:01.440 --> 00:19:04.400 be some party that appeals to the middle of America, 315 00:19:04.759 --> 00:19:06.519 they're not going to be able to be a party 316 00:19:06.680 --> 00:19:09.599 that includes the likes of Zoron Lundani. They're going to 317 00:19:09.599 --> 00:19:11.839 be the kind of party that says that is something 318 00:19:11.880 --> 00:19:13.920 that does not exist within our ranks, and it's not 319 00:19:14.000 --> 00:19:16.200 something we're going to accept. It's certainly not something we're 320 00:19:16.240 --> 00:19:18.960 going to endorse. And as long as they understand, as 321 00:19:19.000 --> 00:19:21.480 long as they do not understand that they are going 322 00:19:21.519 --> 00:19:23.880 to be a minority party in this country because the 323 00:19:23.880 --> 00:19:26.200 American people are going to reject it as the nonsense 324 00:19:26.240 --> 00:19:26.680 that it is. 325 00:19:27.279 --> 00:19:29.119 I'm not sure how this fits right here, but we'll 326 00:19:29.160 --> 00:19:32.759 put it in here. Hunter Biden was giving an interview 327 00:19:32.799 --> 00:19:35.480 with a three hour interview apparently on some place I 328 00:19:35.480 --> 00:19:38.599 don't know, YouTube or somewhere, but he's talking about immigrants, 329 00:19:40.000 --> 00:19:42.519 and if you listen to what he has to say, 330 00:19:42.599 --> 00:19:45.680 we have to bleep out. The guy has the potty 331 00:19:45.720 --> 00:19:49.240 mouth of the century. Apparently he's weared like a banshee. Anyway, 332 00:19:50.160 --> 00:19:54.400 Regardless of that, he's talking about immigrants as if they 333 00:19:54.519 --> 00:20:00.480 are all basically servants, and that he he doesn't have 334 00:20:00.519 --> 00:20:03.319 any respect for an immigrant, He doesn't have any respect 335 00:20:03.319 --> 00:20:06.319 for people from other countries that there are that they 336 00:20:06.960 --> 00:20:10.720 can do anything other than basically mow your lawn and 337 00:20:10.920 --> 00:20:15.279 clean your clothes. Listen to what Hunter Biden had to say, people. 338 00:20:14.960 --> 00:20:19.039 Are really upset about illegal immigration. You how do you 339 00:20:19.039 --> 00:20:21.240 think your hotel room gets cleaned? How do you think 340 00:20:21.240 --> 00:20:24.039 you've got food on your table? Who do you think 341 00:20:24.319 --> 00:20:28.200 washes your dishes? White men in America are forty five 342 00:20:28.240 --> 00:20:31.680 more times likely to commit a violent crime than an immigrant. 343 00:20:31.680 --> 00:20:34.079 If I became president in two years from now or 344 00:20:34.119 --> 00:20:36.480 four years from now or three years from now, I 345 00:20:36.519 --> 00:20:39.240 would pick up the phone and call President al Salvador 346 00:20:39.440 --> 00:20:42.640 and say, you either send them back or I'm going 347 00:20:42.680 --> 00:20:43.359 to invain. 348 00:20:43.960 --> 00:20:46.880 Did I hear him say that when he becomes president 349 00:20:46.880 --> 00:20:49.039 two years or three years or four years from now? 350 00:20:49.160 --> 00:20:51.720 Does he think he's going to be president? I think 351 00:20:51.759 --> 00:20:57.079 he does. He's not really representing the Biden family all 352 00:20:57.119 --> 00:21:00.920 that well, never has, and the Demo are having in 353 00:21:00.960 --> 00:21:06.079 trouble also trying to get some warmth from the American public. 354 00:21:06.599 --> 00:21:09.920 There was a bit it's been one year from today 355 00:21:10.440 --> 00:21:12.440 that Joe Biden stepped down and said, no, I'm not 356 00:21:12.440 --> 00:21:14.799 going to run again. He finally came to that conclusion 357 00:21:15.240 --> 00:21:19.079 on July twenty first, twenty twenty four, and so it's 358 00:21:19.119 --> 00:21:21.640 been one year and the question is what are the 359 00:21:21.720 --> 00:21:26.759 Democrats going to do about getting another leader. Well, Caroline 360 00:21:26.799 --> 00:21:29.640 Downey is a writer for National Reviews, so she hangs 361 00:21:29.680 --> 00:21:33.799 out on the right side of the aisle. Julian Epstein, 362 00:21:34.000 --> 00:21:38.119 I've always admired him. He's a big he represents Democrats, 363 00:21:38.160 --> 00:21:41.319 he always has. He always has a spin to the left. 364 00:21:41.839 --> 00:21:45.880 But even that he kind of surprised me. So here's 365 00:21:46.440 --> 00:21:50.759 Caroline Downey and Julian Epstein on where the Democrats are 366 00:21:50.839 --> 00:21:54.759 in twenty twenty five, one year after Joe stepped down. Yeah. 367 00:21:54.759 --> 00:21:58.880 Well, Amy Klobashar is right that despite the party's abysmal polling, 368 00:21:58.920 --> 00:22:02.319 there's a lot of Democrats enthusiasm heading into the midterms, 369 00:22:02.359 --> 00:22:05.599 when Democrats may very well show up with Gusto to 370 00:22:05.680 --> 00:22:08.720 counter Trump. But what might undercut that, Harris, is the 371 00:22:08.759 --> 00:22:12.720 fact that the Democratic coalition is being torn apart by 372 00:22:12.799 --> 00:22:16.279 horses galloping in different directions. They lost the working class 373 00:22:16.279 --> 00:22:19.480 and many members of the minority community because they were 374 00:22:19.480 --> 00:22:23.240 pushing cultural Marxism. But then there's another part of their coalition, 375 00:22:23.480 --> 00:22:26.160 the youth, and they lost a lot of them because 376 00:22:26.200 --> 00:22:29.119 they weren't woke enough. So the Democrats are between a 377 00:22:29.200 --> 00:22:32.000 rock and a hard place. That David hog Saga was 378 00:22:32.039 --> 00:22:35.240 a microcosm of this issue, and that's why twenty twenty 379 00:22:35.279 --> 00:22:38.799 six may not be a total wipeout for the Republican Party, 380 00:22:39.079 --> 00:22:42.039 because there is this battle between the mom donni voters, 381 00:22:42.039 --> 00:22:45.880 the activist class that increasingly calls the shots, and those 382 00:22:45.920 --> 00:22:50.359 that they lost, the disillusioned ex Democrats, the working class 383 00:22:50.400 --> 00:22:51.359 that fled to Trump. 384 00:22:52.079 --> 00:22:55.200 Well, Caroline Downy with some Forariz. 385 00:22:55.039 --> 00:22:58.680 Don't think things look very good for the Democrats right now, 386 00:22:58.680 --> 00:23:01.000 and I don't think they will until you have a 387 00:23:01.039 --> 00:23:04.680 Sister Soldier moment where you move back to the political center. 388 00:23:05.079 --> 00:23:07.559 I think the story for the Democrats in twenty twenty 389 00:23:07.559 --> 00:23:10.160 four is that they lied to the public about the 390 00:23:10.200 --> 00:23:13.960 condition of President Biden. I think the story of twenty 391 00:23:14.000 --> 00:23:18.039 twenty five is that they're lying to themselves. The numbers 392 00:23:18.039 --> 00:23:21.400 that you put up earlier in the segment, Harris are 393 00:23:21.799 --> 00:23:24.759 record low numbers for any major political party. I haven't 394 00:23:24.759 --> 00:23:27.519 seen numbers that low ever for any political party. 395 00:23:27.599 --> 00:23:28.079 And what the. 396 00:23:28.039 --> 00:23:30.640 Democrats don't seem to be admitting to themselves is that 397 00:23:30.680 --> 00:23:34.039 the public doesn't like their tactics. They don't like the obstructionism, 398 00:23:34.440 --> 00:23:37.319 they don't like the constant negativity, they don't like the 399 00:23:37.400 --> 00:23:41.519 anger the cringe street protests. There's nothing about the Democratic 400 00:23:41.559 --> 00:23:44.000 Party that people can identify today that is positive, that 401 00:23:44.039 --> 00:23:47.079
