He was deported by mistake. The Trump administration 129 00:06:11.519 --> 00:06:15.680 admitted by mistake, and the court has ordered that the 130 00:06:15.720 --> 00:06:21.279 Trump administration facilitate his return. And basically the administration said. 131 00:06:21.079 --> 00:06:23.360 You can go pound sand. We have no intention of 132 00:06:23.399 --> 00:06:23.879 doing that. 133 00:06:24.759 --> 00:06:28.079 The L Salvadorian president said, we have no intention of 134 00:06:28.120 --> 00:06:30.399 returning him. By the way, he hasn't been charged with anything, 135 00:06:30.439 --> 00:06:34.079 either here in this country or in Now Salvador. He's 136 00:06:34.079 --> 00:06:37.839 just sitting in one of the most notorious prisons, if 137 00:06:37.839 --> 00:06:41.079 not the most notorious prison in all of El Salvador. 138 00:06:41.120 --> 00:06:42.879 And went to court. 139 00:06:43.839 --> 00:06:47.879 Supreme Court unanimously said to the Trump administration, get going 140 00:06:47.920 --> 00:06:50.959 and returned this guy. Administration said no, And now the 141 00:06:51.040 --> 00:06:55.839 judge is about to said that there's probable cause that 142 00:06:55.879 --> 00:06:59.639 the whole Trump administration violated the court order and will 143 00:06:59.680 --> 00:07:02.839 be in criminal contempt. What do you do with the 144 00:07:02.879 --> 00:07:07.120 Trump administration? Do you say put yourself in prison? And 145 00:07:07.439 --> 00:07:10.879 who gets nailed for that?

The government of El Salvador has denied a 149 00:07:22.319 --> 00:07:27.439 request from Senator Chris van Holland from Maryland to free 150 00:07:27.600 --> 00:07:30.600 Kilmar Abrago Garcia. That's the guy who was swept up 151 00:07:30.600 --> 00:07:32.959 in the ice ray and taken off to El Salvador. 152 00:07:34.000 --> 00:07:38.360 Van Holland flew to El Salvador yesterday trying to get 153 00:07:38.439 --> 00:07:39.079 him released. 154 00:07:39.839 --> 00:07:42.399 Also, he was refused. 155 00:07:41.759 --> 00:07:48.480 An opportunity to meet with the Abrigo Garcia and couldn't 156 00:07:48.480 --> 00:07:49.480 speak to him on the phone. 157 00:07:49.560 --> 00:07:54.959 They said nope, yep, and the administration is laying into him. 158 00:07:55.000 --> 00:07:57.759 That's Chris van Holland, Democrat by the way, from Maryland 159 00:07:58.120 --> 00:08:01.480 for even doing that. It's this thing is getting crazier. 160 00:08:01.519 --> 00:08:05.079 And you know what cracked me up is yesterday Van 161 00:08:05.160 --> 00:08:08.800 Holland or whatever came out and he was like, he 162 00:08:09.839 --> 00:08:15.079 the president and his administration didn't follow the proper procedures. 163 00:08:15.279 --> 00:08:17.639 I'm like, what do you think an illegal alien is? 164 00:08:19.639 --> 00:08:20.519 But he was legal? 165 00:08:21.480 --> 00:08:24.000 Yeah, who didn't follow the proper procedures? 166 00:08:25.879 --> 00:08:28.600 Well, but there's proper procedures to deport. 167 00:08:28.519 --> 00:08:31.079 I get so they both they both didn't do the 168 00:08:31.079 --> 00:08:34.759 proper procedures. But it's like, uh, I love the whole 169 00:08:34.840 --> 00:08:37.919 nobody's above the law that we hear all the time 170 00:08:37.919 --> 00:08:39.639 when it comes to the president and everything else. 171 00:08:39.720 --> 00:08:43.159 And then it's like, well except these people, No, that's not. 172 00:08:43.000 --> 00:08:44.919 True because they're not above the law. 173 00:08:45.080 --> 00:08:48.159 They just you have to punish or try them or 174 00:08:48.279 --> 00:08:50.000 have a hearing that's within the law. 175 00:08:50.039 --> 00:08:51.559 There has to be due process. 176 00:08:51.799 --> 00:08:55.120 You can't do exactly what the administration does is just 177 00:08:55.320 --> 00:08:59.240 pick someone up off the street, deport them. Oops, made 178 00:08:59.240 --> 00:09:00.960 a mistake while how about getting him back? Now? 179 00:09:01.120 --> 00:09:01.679 I get that. 180 00:09:01.960 --> 00:09:02.919 Now we ever have. 181 00:09:03.000 --> 00:09:08.559 A friendly neighbor law with Mexico and Canada. 182 00:09:08.759 --> 00:09:09.759 I don't understand why. 183 00:09:09.720 --> 00:09:11.159 Well, we never really had a big here. 184 00:09:11.360 --> 00:09:14.279 We've never had a big issue with Canada in terms 185 00:09:14.320 --> 00:09:16.919 of illegal immigration Mexico. We have, but it was it's 186 00:09:17.000 --> 00:09:20.159 complicated because you know, during the Nixing years we had 187 00:09:20.200 --> 00:09:24.279 the Bresserra program where migrants not migrants, where people would 188 00:09:24.279 --> 00:09:27.519 come from Mexico during the harvesting season and then go back. 189 00:09:28.080 --> 00:09:30.960 And it's just it hasn't been as bad I means 190 00:09:31.120 --> 00:09:32.440 as it has been recently. 191 00:09:33.039 --> 00:09:36.159 So it's I mean, there's no easy answer here. There 192 00:09:36.200 --> 00:09:37.639 really isn't you know. 193 00:09:37.679 --> 00:09:40.720 I have to give credit to the Trump administration for 194 00:09:41.519 --> 00:09:44.440 being really aggressive and shutting down the border. Stuff like this. 195 00:09:44.679 --> 00:09:47.639 I don't understand. I mean, this is crazy, you know, 196 00:09:47.759 --> 00:09:50.120 tossing someone out. You make a mistake. Okay, we made 197 00:09:50.120 --> 00:09:53.840 a mistake. Now let's do everything we can to bring 198 00:09:53.960 --> 00:09:58.080 him back. Nothing nothing, I mean, crickets. 199 00:09:58.240 --> 00:09:59.000 Now he's there. 200 00:09:59.200 --> 00:10:03.240 We have no intention and he'll never come back. Oh 201 00:10:03.320 --> 00:10:05.799 he's a criminal, he's a member of MS thirteen. Well, 202 00:10:06.320 --> 00:10:10.480 the problem is is that there's no proof. The government 203 00:10:10.519 --> 00:10:13.279 said that, and the judge said, okay, where show me 204 00:10:13.320 --> 00:10:16.480 the proof, you know, show me the beef. Well we 205 00:10:16.519 --> 00:10:18.919 really don't have it. It's like Giuliani with this crazy 206 00:10:18.960 --> 00:10:21.679 stuff about all of the fraud, and the judge said, well, 207 00:10:21.720 --> 00:10:23.919 show me the fraud. Well, we really don't have it, 208 00:10:23.960 --> 00:10:26.320 but we're alleging there was fraud in the election. 209 00:10:26.480 --> 00:10:26.840 All right. 210 00:10:26.879 --> 00:10:31.279 The Trump administration going head to head with Habit in 211 00:10:31.360 --> 00:10:36.159 the AD. So you've got the IRS has been asked 212 00:10:36.200 --> 00:10:40.320 now by the Trump administration to either they've got their 213 00:10:40.840 --> 00:10:43.600 different levels of attorneys, so the top attorney to revoke 214 00:10:43.679 --> 00:10:49.600 Harvard University's tax exempt status. This comes from a couple 215 00:10:49.600 --> 00:10:52.399 of people that are familiar with the situation, and this 216 00:10:52.480 --> 00:10:55.519 is this big toe to toe President Trump with his 217 00:10:55.639 --> 00:11:01.000 concerns that the institution is handling the anti semitism and 218 00:11:01.080 --> 00:11:08.200 diversity practices improperly, and the directive is a significant escalation 219 00:11:08.399 --> 00:11:12.000 rather of the President's feud with this Ivy League institution. 220 00:11:12.120 --> 00:11:14.759 Yeah, another story. The IRS. 221 00:11:14.879 --> 00:11:20.039 Usually there's a firewall between the administration and the IRS. 222 00:11:20.080 --> 00:11:22.159 They're usually completely independent of each other. 223 00:11:22.679 --> 00:11:25.480 Trump of course, has jumped over that line and now 224 00:11:25.600 --> 00:11:29.039 is using the IRS as a cudgel, telling Harvard you 225 00:11:29.120 --> 00:11:31.480 either do what I tell you to do, and that 226 00:11:31.679 --> 00:11:36.320 is the DEI programs, for example, the woke approach to education. 227 00:11:36.759 --> 00:11:39.879 Now you may disagree with that, I certainly do. Is 228 00:11:39.919 --> 00:11:44.759 there enough to cut off all of the grants. I 229 00:11:44.799 --> 00:11:47.679 don't know even when for went beyond that and was 230 00:11:47.720 --> 00:11:51.840 talking about removing their tax exempt status so donations to 231 00:11:51.879 --> 00:11:55.480 the school would no longer be tax deductible. I mean 232 00:11:56.200 --> 00:11:59.200 gone really far. An enemy's list. Basically there's an enemy's 233 00:11:59.200 --> 00:12:03.480 list there, which is illegal. But does it matter anymore. 234 00:12:04.799 --> 00:12:07.879 It's either you cow tell to what I tell you, 235 00:12:08.480 --> 00:12:10.279 or I'm going to bring the full power of the 236 00:12:10.279 --> 00:12:15.279 federal government on your back. And by the way, any 237 00:12:15.360 --> 00:12:18.360 kind of guard rails I am going to ignore no 238 00:12:18.399 --> 00:12:20.360 matter what the courts tell me, and we'll see how 239 00:12:20.440 --> 00:12:21.039 far it goes. 240 00:12:21.840 --> 00:12:27.080 And by the way, Harvard is holding firm. Harvard is 241 00:12:27.120 --> 00:12:28.159 saying no. 242 00:12:28.960 --> 00:12:33.559 So what if an Ivy League school tried to bring 243 00:12:33.639 --> 00:12:35.960 back segregation with blacks. 244 00:12:36.360 --> 00:12:38.120 That would be a quart It would be a court order. 245 00:12:39.639 --> 00:12:42.080 You would go to court to undo that. I don't 246 00:12:42.120 --> 00:12:44.759 think that the Feds can say we're taking away your 247 00:12:44.799 --> 00:12:47.919 tax exempt status. And as far as the anti semitism 248 00:12:47.960 --> 00:12:52.480 is concerned is concerned, I mean, I can see you 249 00:12:52.519 --> 00:12:55.120 know how upset you would be if you took a 250 00:12:55.159 --> 00:12:59.399 Harvard course which exists, by the way, on anti Semitism, 251 00:13:00.039 --> 00:13:00.879 and his title. 252 00:13:00.679 --> 00:13:01.559 Knowed you for you. 253 00:13:05.360 --> 00:13:10.559 Okay, pro how to hate like a hobbit in so 254 00:13:10.840 --> 00:13:13.480 in any case, it's just gonna be another fight. 255 00:13:14.159 --> 00:13:14.879 And it's that. 256 00:13:15.559 --> 00:13:17.919 It's insane.
