A little bit of breaking news real quick. 10 00:00:32,200 --> 00:00:37,439 Governor Ron DeSantis and Florida has confirmed Florida's twenty twenty 11 00:00:37,520 --> 00:00:42,399 six redistricting is coming. We could be looking at five 12 00:00:42,880 --> 00:00:47,439 additional seats for Republicans, which would mean twenty five of 13 00:00:47,520 --> 00:00:53,600 the twenty eight seats would be Republican leaning or safe seats. 14 00:00:53,920 --> 00:00:57,640 Democrats would be left with three out of the twenty 15 00:00:57,679 --> 00:01:03,759 eight and that would have been essentially negate California's redistricting. 16 00:01:05,159 --> 00:01:08,159 So there's that. At the end of the last hour, 17 00:01:08,239 --> 00:01:10,480 I was playing some audio from the press conference that 18 00:01:10,599 --> 00:01:12,799 was held today at the Government Center. About two dozen 19 00:01:12,840 --> 00:01:17,560 people showed up to speak. Media was there to not 20 00:01:17,760 --> 00:01:20,480 ask any difficult questions or pushback on any of the 21 00:01:20,519 --> 00:01:23,519 assertions or predicates of their arguments. All the questions, there 22 00:01:23,560 --> 00:01:25,519 were three of them, and all of them were basically, 23 00:01:25,560 --> 00:01:30,079 what advice do you give to illegals to avoid getting caught? 24 00:01:30,359 --> 00:01:33,640 As essentially all of their questions, what do you tell people? 25 00:01:33,879 --> 00:01:37,159 I hate that question? What do you tell people? So 26 00:01:38,319 --> 00:01:41,439 one of the speakers I did not catch her first name. 27 00:01:41,480 --> 00:01:44,840 I think it was either Nissi or Rec Brown. And 28 00:01:44,879 --> 00:01:50,920 she is the SEIU leader, so Service Employees International Union leader, 29 00:01:52,200 --> 00:01:55,280 and she drove all the way up from Charleston to 30 00:01:55,359 --> 00:01:58,879 speak because Charlotte is part of I guess her territory. 31 00:02:00,920 --> 00:02:04,680 And Trent asks on Twitter, why does the voice of 32 00:02:04,760 --> 00:02:08,439 Charlotte North Carolina workers live in Charleston, South Carolina. That 33 00:02:08,560 --> 00:02:11,520 just doesn't make any sense. That's a very good question. 34 00:02:12,039 --> 00:02:16,759 But I don't know the internal regions of the SCIU. 35 00:02:16,879 --> 00:02:24,680 But fair question this from Dennis who says, hey, Charlotte 36 00:02:24,719 --> 00:02:30,240 Airport has border implications as an international airport. Yeah, because 37 00:02:30,560 --> 00:02:35,560 State Representative Aisha Do Democrat was saying, you know, why 38 00:02:35,560 --> 00:02:38,159 do we need customs and border patrol here? We don't 39 00:02:38,199 --> 00:02:40,159 have any borders. Where are they going to be protecting 40 00:02:40,520 --> 00:02:44,360 the Rock Hill border? Like? What are they doing borders. Yeah, 41 00:02:44,360 --> 00:02:47,520 we have an international airport, so we do actually have borders. 42 00:02:47,919 --> 00:02:52,039 It's the airport. Also, he says SCIU is a huge 43 00:02:52,080 --> 00:02:55,960 group of malcontents, not to be trusted a union for 44 00:02:56,120 --> 00:03:00,360 the union. First, all right, let me get back to 45 00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:04,759 some of this audio from this news conference. I don't 46 00:03:04,759 --> 00:03:06,639 even know who's the speaking, Well, just play it. 47 00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:10,879 Speaker 2: Joanelle Coswell, who was a part of the chair for 48 00:03:10,960 --> 00:03:15,840 the International Cabinet, also worked with International House and is 49 00:03:15,919 --> 00:03:18,599 also an immigrant herself. 50 00:03:19,120 --> 00:03:23,199 Speaker 3: The representative due I don't know, maybe maybe this isn't working. 51 00:03:23,400 --> 00:03:28,039 Speaker 1: However, I was the microphone. They're they're my little microphone speaker. 52 00:03:28,120 --> 00:03:31,560 It wasn't working correctly. But this is a feed from WBTV, 53 00:03:31,919 --> 00:03:34,360 so that's why the audio is pretty good. Uddy, and 54 00:03:34,360 --> 00:03:34,840 good morning. 55 00:03:35,360 --> 00:03:38,199 Speaker 3: This is a very very dire time that we're gathering 56 00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:38,759 here today. 57 00:03:38,800 --> 00:03:39,319 Speaker 1: Oh my gosh. 58 00:03:39,360 --> 00:03:42,800 Speaker 3: I'm a proud immigrant. I'm a proud Jamaican American and 59 00:03:42,879 --> 00:03:45,159 I have been a part of this community for over 60 00:03:45,199 --> 00:03:49,400 a decade. The immigrant community in Charlotte is vibrant, productive, 61 00:03:49,879 --> 00:03:53,879 and contributes over a billion dollars of spending revenue each year. 62 00:03:54,240 --> 00:03:56,520 Speaker 1: Okay, so again, when they do these types of stats, 63 00:03:56,520 --> 00:03:58,240 they never look at the other side of the ledger. 64 00:03:58,560 --> 00:04:01,639 This is just to spin propag into job right. They 65 00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:04,280 never they're not giving you all of the data. Also, 66 00:04:04,360 --> 00:04:07,840 she says she's a proud immigrant. Fair enough, sounds like 67 00:04:07,879 --> 00:04:12,280 she's a legal immigrant, that's what it seems like. But 68 00:04:12,360 --> 00:04:14,240 she's only been here ten years. This is again one 69 00:04:14,240 --> 00:04:17,519 of those things, like you're telling people what we should 70 00:04:17,560 --> 00:04:19,560 be doing and what Charlotte is all about, and all 71 00:04:19,560 --> 00:04:21,959 that you've only been here like ten years. 72 00:04:22,199 --> 00:04:28,199 Speaker 3: So this community immigrants not only bring their culture and diversity, 73 00:04:28,480 --> 00:04:31,519 but we help to make this community prosperous and a 74 00:04:31,560 --> 00:04:39,959 healthy economic ecosystem. I have recently been grieving the loss 75 00:04:40,079 --> 00:04:44,759 of a very very dear friend, and I can only 76 00:04:44,839 --> 00:04:49,639 imagine that this kind of grief, this kind of sorrow 77 00:04:50,399 --> 00:04:53,000 is only can I can't. I can't even describe what 78 00:04:53,120 --> 00:04:56,720 families must go through when they come home to find 79 00:04:56,920 --> 00:05:01,439 family members gone missing. It is one thing if you 80 00:05:01,639 --> 00:05:04,720 are going after criminals. It is one thing if you're 81 00:05:04,759 --> 00:05:08,199 going after people who have broken the law. To have 82 00:05:08,480 --> 00:05:12,720 to take someone with no due process, this is not democratic. 83 00:05:12,759 --> 00:05:15,199 This is not America, and this is not Charlotte, and 84 00:05:15,199 --> 00:05:16,480 this is not this country. 85 00:05:17,319 --> 00:05:19,759 Speaker 1: Wait wait, hang, on this side. I thought America was 86 00:05:19,800 --> 00:05:24,439 systemically racist, didn't you guys tell us that for like 87 00:05:24,480 --> 00:05:29,000 the last five years, that we're just inherently original sin 88 00:05:29,439 --> 00:05:32,920 you know, cops or slave patrol like all of that stuff. 89 00:05:33,040 --> 00:05:41,040 We're systemically in capable of treating people fairly. I thought, So, 90 00:05:41,079 --> 00:05:43,079 wouldn't that make up? This would make I mean, this 91 00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:46,160 would actually make sense if you had this consistent philosophy. 92 00:05:46,160 --> 00:05:49,439 But now you're saying it's not. Uh so, does that 93 00:05:49,480 --> 00:05:52,120 mean we're not systemically racist and haven't been all this time? 94 00:05:52,120 --> 00:05:55,480 And you were lying about that? Just I'm trying to 95 00:05:55,800 --> 00:05:57,879 I'm trying to get some clarity. I would like a 96 00:05:57,959 --> 00:06:02,040 consistent standard too, if possible. Thank you, Thank you. 97 00:06:02,079 --> 00:06:02,240 Speaker 4: Now. 98 00:06:02,279 --> 00:06:05,240 Speaker 3: Our community is strong and it is made stronger by 99 00:06:05,279 --> 00:06:10,399 the presence of immigrants and the international community. Okay, we 100 00:06:10,439 --> 00:06:13,000 need to stand together and we need to protect our 101 00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:15,720 community members because they do not come here to rob 102 00:06:15,879 --> 00:06:17,120 do not come here to steal. 103 00:06:17,319 --> 00:06:19,000 Speaker 1: They come here for a better. 104 00:06:18,800 --> 00:06:21,519 Speaker 3: Life and to make this community better by. 105 00:06:21,439 --> 00:06:25,839 Speaker 1: Working hard hashtag. Not all of the immigrants, not all 106 00:06:25,839 --> 00:06:29,040 of them. Some of them did actually come to set 107 00:06:29,120 --> 00:06:32,560 up like cartel operations and that sort of thing, which 108 00:06:32,600 --> 00:06:37,199 would be what federal enforcement officers like that, they would 109 00:06:37,240 --> 00:06:42,319 be looking into doing that sort of operation. Right, A 110 00:06:42,319 --> 00:06:45,040 lot of people, Look, I agree, I want there to 111 00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:49,360 be legal immigration. I think we should be picky and 112 00:06:49,439 --> 00:06:52,639 choosy about who we allow into the country. But I'm 113 00:06:52,639 --> 00:06:56,839 not an anti immigration person. That being said, I am 114 00:06:56,879 --> 00:07:00,399 an anti illegal immigration person. And so if you came 115 00:07:00,399 --> 00:07:04,800 into the country illegally. Key part of the equation here, 116 00:07:04,920 --> 00:07:07,639 key part of the debate that nobody seems to be 117 00:07:07,720 --> 00:07:10,480 mentioning in any of this press conference, And no media 118 00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:15,319 thought to ask, like, why are you conflating illegal and 119 00:07:15,480 --> 00:07:21,560 legal immigrants? Because they are different, they're a different category. 120 00:07:22,759 --> 00:07:25,920 Why are you doing that? Nobody asks that because everybody 121 00:07:25,959 --> 00:07:29,800 is in on the same racket here. They all know 122 00:07:29,920 --> 00:07:34,199 what's happening. They understand that. The reporters that are there, 123 00:07:34,279 --> 00:07:37,639 they know this, right, the people who are speaking at 124 00:07:37,639 --> 00:07:39,800 the press conference, they know this. They all know this. 125 00:07:41,879 --> 00:07:45,040 They know there's a difference between legal and illegal. But 126 00:07:45,079 --> 00:07:47,279 they don't want to say any difference is they don't 127 00:07:47,279 --> 00:07:50,000 want to say the word illegal because they want all 128 00:07:50,120 --> 00:07:57,720 of the empathy for legal immigrants to transfer to illegal immigrants. 129 00:07:58,199 --> 00:08:02,800 That's why they keep changing the word, right, undocumented, unauthorized 130 00:08:03,240 --> 00:08:06,560 people lacking proper documentation. If you don't have any word 131 00:08:06,600 --> 00:08:10,720 count to have to abide by in your news story and. 132 00:08:10,879 --> 00:08:16,279 Speaker 3: Participating and volunteering just like myself. We need to stand 133 00:08:16,319 --> 00:08:19,480 together and we need to protect our community members and 134 00:08:19,519 --> 00:08:23,199 we have to say no, this cannot happen, and we 135 00:08:23,240 --> 00:08:26,160 need to defend our democracy and make sure that there 136 00:08:26,199 --> 00:08:27,079 is due process. 137 00:08:27,680 --> 00:08:30,639 Speaker 1: Okay, so defend the democracy. So you got to defend 138 00:08:30,639 --> 00:08:34,519 the democracy. But the people who are here illegally, they're 139 00:08:34,519 --> 00:08:37,440 not allowed to vote. You guys keep telling me that too, 140 00:08:37,440 --> 00:08:39,720 that they're not allowed to vote. There are federal laws 141 00:08:39,799 --> 00:08:42,320 about that, and we don't need the state law which 142 00:08:42,399 --> 00:08:48,320 was passed to restrict voting to only legal residents. Right 143 00:08:48,360 --> 00:08:51,159 to legal citizens, I should say, to only citizens. Right, 144 00:08:51,159 --> 00:08:53,600 you said we didn't need that law either, because they're 145 00:08:53,600 --> 00:08:56,279 not voting. So how exactly is this about the democracy? 146 00:08:56,320 --> 00:09:00,519 Because they can't they can't participate in the democracy. Like 147 00:09:00,559 --> 00:09:05,799 it's just this is what I mean. It's intellectually flabby. 148 00:09:05,879 --> 00:09:10,399 They don't even know how to formulate logical arguments on 149 00:09:10,440 --> 00:09:12,600 this matter. Well, but that I'm saying that, see, and 150 00:09:12,679 --> 00:09:15,799 I know I know if I had to formulate a 151 00:09:15,840 --> 00:09:17,919 logical argument here. I would not be able to do 152 00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:23,320 so either, because you're defending something that is illogical. Nations 153 00:09:23,919 --> 00:09:28,720 have the right and the authority to police their borders 154 00:09:29,159 --> 00:09:33,320 to expel people who enter their country illegally. Think of 155 00:09:33,360 --> 00:09:36,840 it like your home. You have property rights. If you 156 00:09:36,840 --> 00:09:40,080 don't want somebody on your property, you are allowed to 157 00:09:40,840 --> 00:09:44,360 have them removed from your property. Every other nation on 158 00:09:44,399 --> 00:09:46,720 Earth understands this. You don't just get to go and 159 00:09:46,799 --> 00:09:49,840 set up in another country. Well, I shouldn't say there are. 160 00:09:49,879 --> 00:09:51,720 There are probably some out there that you could do that, 161 00:09:51,799 --> 00:09:57,279 like war torn countries that aren't monitoring their borders very well. Well, 162 00:09:57,279 --> 00:09:59,759 but maybe the war torn ones are. They got troops 163 00:09:59,759 --> 00:10:04,120 on the borders and stuff. Yeah, this is within a 164 00:10:04,240 --> 00:10:06,080 national authority. 165 00:10:06,679 --> 00:10:06,840 Speaker 5: You know. 166 00:10:06,919 --> 00:10:09,440 Speaker 1: Stories are powerful. They help us make sense of things, 167 00:10:09,440 --> 00:10:12,919 to understand experiences. Stories connect us to the people of 168 00:10:12,919 --> 00:10:16,240 our past while transcending generations. They help us process the 169 00:10:16,320 --> 00:10:19,720 meaning of life, and our stories are told through images 170 00:10:19,799 --> 00:10:23,600 and videos.

Message from Arcbuilder, who said, listening to that 185 00:11:12,559 --> 00:11:16,240 news conference audio, I'm developing a brain bleed. I'm having 186 00:11:16,320 --> 00:11:19,919 a problem accepting elected officials declaring that illegal aliens form 187 00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:25,440 part of their constituencies, and Russ says, I agree with 188 00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:30,240 your intellectually flabby point. I've also been noticing for a 189 00:11:30,279 --> 00:11:33,080 while that we've had a real loss of logical reasoning. 190 00:11:33,440 --> 00:11:36,159 Schools and media have been teaching people that it's okay 191 00:11:36,559 --> 00:11:40,399 to hold diametrically opposed thoughts in their head. At the 192 00:11:40,399 --> 00:11:43,399 same time, I've seen so many people contradict themselves in 193 00:11:43,440 --> 00:11:48,480 the same statement with no idea they're doing it. Yeah, 194 00:11:48,559 --> 00:11:50,840 let me jump over here and get to Doug. Hello, Doug, 195 00:11:51,039 --> 00:11:51,840 welcome to the show. 196 00:11:52,759 --> 00:11:53,559 Speaker 6: Hey, how are you doing? 197 00:11:53,639 --> 00:11:55,960 Speaker 1: Be good, sir? How are you pretty good? 198 00:11:55,960 --> 00:11:58,279 Speaker 6: Pretty good? I was listening to this just for a 199 00:11:58,320 --> 00:12:00,639 little while. Once I get back in my call, I 200 00:12:00,720 --> 00:12:02,559 heard all this, and I think it's so it's just 201 00:12:02,720 --> 00:12:07,840 so funny. What these folks expectations are. I moved, Well, 202 00:12:07,879 --> 00:12:09,919 it didn't move. I went down to Mexico back in 203 00:12:09,919 --> 00:12:13,519 twenty eleven on vacation. I ended up long story short, 204 00:12:13,559 --> 00:12:15,120 I ended up living down there for eight years. But 205 00:12:15,159 --> 00:12:18,840 I had to follow a legal process down there, basically 206 00:12:18,919 --> 00:12:21,320 worked visa and then I ended up, of course having 207 00:12:21,360 --> 00:12:23,559 a couple children, got my permanent residents and all that. 208 00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:26,159 But if I hadn't followed the legal processes down there, 209 00:12:26,600 --> 00:12:28,759 I would have gotten booted and sent back to the US. 210 00:12:29,440 --> 00:12:30,639 That was just the way it was. 211 00:12:30,960 --> 00:12:31,279 Speaker 1: Yeah. 212 00:12:31,320 --> 00:12:32,879 Speaker 6: And when I went back up and I brought my 213 00:12:32,960 --> 00:12:35,440 wife and my children and all that, guess what. We 214 00:12:35,519 --> 00:12:38,480 followed the same legal processes here. I hired a lawyer, 215 00:12:39,039 --> 00:12:42,720 we applied or put in all the applications. We did 216 00:12:42,720 --> 00:12:44,879 exactly what we're supposed to do. Eventually my wife got 217 00:12:45,240 --> 00:12:48,480 my wife and my step son got their residencies and 218 00:12:48,519 --> 00:12:50,759 all that. My wife was able to go to work. 219 00:12:50,960 --> 00:12:55,600 And I just find it totally amazing, so amazing that 220 00:12:56,240 --> 00:12:58,039 we have all these folks that are just saying, oh, no, 221 00:12:58,360 --> 00:13:01,399 they're here, it's okay, as long as they haven't broken 222 00:13:01,399 --> 00:13:02,879 a law. But the fact that they've come into the 223 00:13:02,879 --> 00:13:08,240 country without even applying for citizenship or what have you, 224 00:13:08,799 --> 00:13:12,159 it just amazes me because I've paid like thousands of 225 00:13:12,200 --> 00:13:14,440 dollars just for my wife and my children to be 226 00:13:14,519 --> 00:13:18,759 up here, right, And you know, it's just it's insulting. 227 00:13:19,120 --> 00:13:21,799 Speaker 1: No, it's insulting to the people like you who did 228 00:13:21,840 --> 00:13:22,399 it correctly. 229 00:13:23,679 --> 00:13:24,120 Speaker 4: Yeah. 230 00:13:24,200 --> 00:13:26,320 Speaker 6: Yeah, So I just wanted to call it and kind 231 00:13:26,360 --> 00:13:29,519 of just mention that. And you know, if the third 232 00:13:29,559 --> 00:13:33,559 world country requires you to follow the laws in order 233 00:13:33,600 --> 00:13:36,519 to get permanent residency, work visas and all this other 234 00:13:36,519 --> 00:13:38,519 stuff in order to be able to stay there and 235 00:13:38,559 --> 00:13:42,159 live there, why can't we do that here in the US? Yeah? 236 00:13:42,320 --> 00:13:42,519 Speaker 7: Yeah. 237 00:13:42,600 --> 00:13:49,519 Speaker 1: Oh, a friend who works in Central America and he 238 00:13:49,639 --> 00:13:54,600 has to return to America once a year because he 239 00:13:54,879 --> 00:13:57,840 like he's there. It's part of their it's part of 240 00:13:57,879 --> 00:14:01,679 their laws where you can't you can't live there year long. 241 00:14:01,759 --> 00:14:04,080 You have to return to your native country and then 242 00:14:04,120 --> 00:14:06,200 come back. So every year it's. 243 00:14:06,120 --> 00:14:09,159 Speaker 6: Probably like an extensive visa or what have you. Right, 244 00:14:09,240 --> 00:14:10,519 that's what I'm passing anyways. 245 00:14:10,679 --> 00:14:12,159 Speaker 1: Yeah, so, and I don't know what. I don't know 246 00:14:12,159 --> 00:14:15,919 what is particular, you know, visa is or anything like that. 247 00:14:16,039 --> 00:14:19,039 But yeah, like they have all these laws too, and 248 00:14:19,320 --> 00:14:23,159 Mexico's laws from what I understand, or even stricter than ours. 249 00:14:24,279 --> 00:14:27,200 They don't suffer this stuff that we do at all. 250 00:14:27,320 --> 00:14:28,639 That's that was my impression. 251 00:14:29,480 --> 00:14:30,000 Speaker 4: They don't. 252 00:14:30,080 --> 00:14:32,200 Speaker 6: And when I live down there, if I had broken 253 00:14:32,240 --> 00:14:36,120 the law, if I'd disrespected the flag, if I'd done 254 00:14:36,159 --> 00:14:39,639 anything political, guess what, they would have booted me out. 255 00:14:39,720 --> 00:14:43,320 I wasn't allowed. I was not allowed to take and 256 00:14:43,600 --> 00:14:46,840 do any type of protest or march or anything like 257 00:14:46,879 --> 00:14:49,279 that there. If I had done that, I would have 258 00:14:49,279 --> 00:14:51,639 been gone. Yeah, it was just that simple. 259 00:14:52,519 --> 00:14:54,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, Doug, I appreciate the insight. Thank you, sir. Have 260 00:14:54,879 --> 00:14:59,000 a good weekend, Yes, sir, thank you, all right, take care. Yeah, 261 00:14:59,039 --> 00:15:02,519 It's that's the thing when you actually take the time 262 00:15:02,559 --> 00:15:04,799 and look at what the rules are for other countries. 263 00:15:05,039 --> 00:15:08,840 You realize what an anomaly we are. And well, I 264 00:15:08,840 --> 00:15:16,279 shouldn't say not just US, but Western civilization countries, Western nations. 265 00:15:17,120 --> 00:15:19,600 We have this suicidal empathy that we have to take 266 00:15:19,720 --> 00:15:25,000 every single person that gets across the border. And like 267 00:15:25,080 --> 00:15:29,720 other countries don't feel this requirement, there's no pressure on 268 00:15:29,879 --> 00:15:34,360 them to do these sorts of things. Dave, Welcome to 269 00:15:34,399 --> 00:15:34,759 the show. 270 00:15:35,840 --> 00:15:41,200 Speaker 4: Dave. As a veteran, this is not the country that 271 00:15:41,320 --> 00:15:44,679 I swore an oath to the constitutions of the fact 272 00:15:45,120 --> 00:15:47,679 the lack of education is the worst part of it. 273 00:15:48,279 --> 00:15:52,639 That woman says she's a Jamaican American, Okay, did she 274 00:15:53,159 --> 00:15:56,600 come through the country properly through the vedded and and 275 00:15:56,919 --> 00:16:00,799 you were going her residency and become assimilated to our culture. 276 00:16:01,480 --> 00:16:04,440 And they're talking about skin call and everything. That woman 277 00:16:04,480 --> 00:16:08,519 who got stabbed on the light rail, she came through legally, 278 00:16:08,720 --> 00:16:12,759 she would can process. She was white as you know 279 00:16:12,919 --> 00:16:13,879 white in the cloud too. 280 00:16:13,919 --> 00:16:14,600 Speaker 1: Is Ukrainian? 281 00:16:14,679 --> 00:16:18,159 Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, uh, but it has that has nothing to 282 00:16:18,200 --> 00:16:18,559 do with it. 283 00:16:18,639 --> 00:16:22,320 Speaker 1: No, you know, there are Look, there are Russian illegal 284 00:16:22,360 --> 00:16:26,639 aliens in America and maybe and I'm going to go 285 00:16:26,679 --> 00:16:28,440 out on a limit and say maybe a portion of 286 00:16:28,480 --> 00:16:31,000 them that are here illegally might actually be engaging in 287 00:16:31,039 --> 00:16:34,120 criminal activity. I don't care what the racial makeup of 288 00:16:34,200 --> 00:16:37,240 the person is. I care about whether they're here illegally 289 00:16:37,360 --> 00:16:38,720 or not exactly. 290 00:16:38,840 --> 00:16:41,759 Speaker 4: Yeah, as long as they're checked and check some bounces 291 00:16:41,799 --> 00:16:45,399 and according to the constitution, yeah, five years you have 292 00:16:45,519 --> 00:16:48,279 to be checked in and checked on, and five years 293 00:16:48,600 --> 00:16:52,480 speak the language, assimilate in the community. And if after 294 00:16:52,519 --> 00:16:54,919 those five years, if you haven't assimilated which community and 295 00:16:54,960 --> 00:17:00,519 become part of a of the society to contribute to 296 00:17:00,559 --> 00:17:03,720 your community, you're bruted. Yeah. I was put it in 297 00:17:03,759 --> 00:17:07,759 the conversation by Teddy Roosevelt, and that's one of those 298 00:17:07,880 --> 00:17:10,680 erver sights of education. Now, well, I don't know what 299 00:17:10,720 --> 00:17:13,599 people are looking at. It has nothing to do with 300 00:17:13,799 --> 00:17:16,839 it has everything to do with safety. And this is 301 00:17:16,880 --> 00:17:19,279 not the country I remember that playing it out. 302 00:17:19,880 --> 00:17:22,000 Speaker 1: It's got and I appreciate the call. Dave, thanks so much, 303 00:17:22,079 --> 00:17:24,440 and thank you for your service to the country as well. 304 00:17:24,599 --> 00:17:28,759 I would say that I, like I said, I want 305 00:17:28,799 --> 00:17:31,680 people to come in and I want them to do 306 00:17:31,720 --> 00:17:34,119 it the right way. And here's the thing. Coming to 307 00:17:34,160 --> 00:17:38,000 America is not a right you have no right to 308 00:17:38,079 --> 00:17:41,319 come to America. You have no right to go to 309 00:17:41,359 --> 00:17:45,920 any country, no inherent, inalienable human right to go to 310 00:17:46,000 --> 00:17:49,079 any country you want to. That is a sort of 311 00:17:49,079 --> 00:17:53,119 globalist mentality, and I suspect that is why we have 312 00:17:53,240 --> 00:17:56,640 these problems, is because you have people of a globalist 313 00:17:56,720 --> 00:18:00,200 mindset that are trying to break down the concept of 314 00:18:00,279 --> 00:18:04,759 nation states. That's my suspicion. Here's a great idea. How 315 00:18:04,799 --> 00:18:07,880 about making an escape to a really special and secluded 316 00:18:07,920 --> 00:18:10,720 getaway in western North Carolina.

From 337 00:19:17,799 --> 00:19:20,480 the text line, Steve says, the illegal aliens could have 338 00:19:20,599 --> 00:19:25,000 created their own due process through the ports of entry. 339 00:19:25,440 --> 00:19:29,599 Yes see. But here's the problem. Also is that the 340 00:19:29,720 --> 00:19:37,799 prior administration created these pathways to flood America with millions 341 00:19:37,799 --> 00:19:42,400 of illegal immigrants. That was an intentional policy. I'd been 342 00:19:42,440 --> 00:19:45,240 talking about it. Conservative media had been talking about it, 343 00:19:46,759 --> 00:19:51,279 but legacy media was not. And people who consume legacy media, 344 00:19:52,079 --> 00:19:55,319 they were not hearing this stuff. They were not hearing 345 00:19:55,359 --> 00:19:58,519 any pushback. They weren't hearing about Alejandro mayorkas breaking the 346 00:19:58,640 --> 00:20:04,359 law in doing blanket asylum passes via the CBP. One 347 00:20:04,519 --> 00:20:08,440 app right, they weren't getting that kind of information, so 348 00:20:08,480 --> 00:20:11,279 they may be completely in the dark about what's going 349 00:20:11,279 --> 00:20:14,319 on and what's going on here, despite what the Charlotte 350 00:20:14,319 --> 00:20:17,000 Observer Editorial board said in their editorial where they say 351 00:20:17,000 --> 00:20:20,960 this isn't a debate about immigration policy. Oh no, it 352 00:20:21,000 --> 00:20:25,519 most certainly is. See because this the CBP coming to 353 00:20:25,599 --> 00:20:32,640 Charlotte ice enforcement actions. This is the ramification of your 354 00:20:32,720 --> 00:20:38,359 policies of what you guys championed. You said, open the doors, 355 00:20:38,440 --> 00:20:40,759 let everybody through. We're not even going to ask them 356 00:20:40,799 --> 00:20:45,079 to sign the guest book. And then when it got 357 00:20:45,119 --> 00:20:49,160 to be too politically radioactive for you and for Joe 358 00:20:49,160 --> 00:20:53,319 Biden slash Kamala Harris, then it was like, oh okay, 359 00:20:53,359 --> 00:20:57,000 well yeah, well we need some new legislation. Then, and 360 00:20:57,160 --> 00:21:01,000 James Langford, the useful idiot, lends his support to this 361 00:21:01,160 --> 00:21:05,440 idea of new legislation. And when Republicans and Conservatives and 362 00:21:05,599 --> 00:21:09,200 Trump and his administration, when they looked at the meat 363 00:21:09,240 --> 00:21:12,359 of that bill, they were like, uh, yeah, no, we're 364 00:21:12,400 --> 00:21:15,559 not doing this. This is garbage. Oh my gosh. That 365 00:21:15,680 --> 00:21:18,400 means he wants the problem to persist. He's doing it 366 00:21:18,440 --> 00:21:21,240 for political purposes and all of this. No, what we 367 00:21:21,279 --> 00:21:24,680 all knew was that the laws exist already to do 368 00:21:24,839 --> 00:21:28,519 the very things that we are seeing done. And so 369 00:21:28,799 --> 00:21:34,119 the things you're seeing done are the natural response to 370 00:21:34,400 --> 00:21:40,799 your transgressions. So, yes, this is about immigration policy, they say. 371 00:21:40,960 --> 00:21:43,279 The Observer Editorial Board says, Oh, it's no, it's not. 372 00:21:44,240 --> 00:21:46,839 It's about whether the government should use fear and force 373 00:21:46,920 --> 00:21:51,599 to achieve its goals, and it's about what exactly those 374 00:21:51,680 --> 00:21:58,119 goals are. Well, those goals have been laid out pretty explicitly, 375 00:21:58,200 --> 00:22:02,680 which is to arrest illegal immigrants, particularly the ones with 376 00:22:02,720 --> 00:22:05,480 criminal backgrounds. If you're an illegal immigrant that gets in 377 00:22:05,519 --> 00:22:07,640 their way, then you're going to get scooped up too. Oh, 378 00:22:07,680 --> 00:22:10,079 and also we want the people who came here illegally 379 00:22:10,359 --> 00:22:13,559 to leave on their own. That would be the safest 380 00:22:13,559 --> 00:22:14,200 way to do it. 381 00:22:14,759 --> 00:22:14,920 Speaker 4: Right. 382 00:22:14,920 --> 00:22:16,599 Speaker 1: If you don't want all the fear and all of this, 383 00:22:16,920 --> 00:22:20,279 you have a choice. You can go back to your 384 00:22:20,319 --> 00:22:24,400 home country and avoid any of the fear and anxiety. Now, 385 00:22:24,440 --> 00:22:26,799 as to whether the government should use fear and force, 386 00:22:29,880 --> 00:22:36,759 do you know what government is. It is force. That's 387 00:22:36,799 --> 00:22:42,559 what government is. It is an entity to which you 388 00:22:42,640 --> 00:22:46,400 do not have the ability to say no, because that's 389 00:22:46,440 --> 00:22:50,119 at the heart of all force. The use of force 390 00:22:50,200 --> 00:22:53,319 is only required if I say no to you and 391 00:22:53,359 --> 00:22:56,519 you want me to do something, and I keep saying 392 00:22:56,559 --> 00:22:59,640 no and you can't get it or you can't get 393 00:22:59,640 --> 00:23:02,799 me to do it, then you would use force against me. 394 00:23:03,240 --> 00:23:08,240 And what Govco has is the monopoly on force. It 395 00:23:08,279 --> 00:23:13,240 has always been. Thus, see, this is the problem with 396 00:23:13,319 --> 00:23:16,880 your argument. Whether you know these things or not, I 397 00:23:16,920 --> 00:23:19,640 do not know. I cannot tell. I'm just reading your words, 398 00:23:20,039 --> 00:23:23,920 and they betray a profound lack of understanding of what 399 00:23:23,960 --> 00:23:27,599 the core tenet of government is. It is force. It 400 00:23:27,640 --> 00:23:30,640 is a monopoly on force quote unquote legitimate force, the 401 00:23:30,680 --> 00:23:33,799 authority to make you do something, or to stop you 402 00:23:33,839 --> 00:23:37,480 from doing something, or for you to pay right like, 403 00:23:38,240 --> 00:23:39,759 that's it. That's what government does. 404 00:23:41,279 --> 00:23:41,759 Speaker 4: But no, this. 405 00:23:43,559 --> 00:23:48,000 Speaker 1: Is about immigration policy. It's sort of like when they 406 00:23:48,000 --> 00:23:51,240 say it's not about the money, then it's about the money. 407 00:23:51,559 --> 00:23:53,880 And so when the Observer editorial board says it's not 408 00:23:53,880 --> 00:23:57,720 about immigration policy, it's about immigration policy, it is exactly 409 00:23:57,720 --> 00:24:02,400 about the policy that you guys celebrated. You guys wanted 410 00:24:02,440 --> 00:24:06,440 to see proceed. You guys kept pushing this same sort 411 00:24:06,480 --> 00:24:10,480 of dumb assery, and now this is the response because 412 00:24:10,519 --> 00:24:13,319 there isn't any other way. And that's also part of 413 00:24:13,359 --> 00:24:16,039 this as well, talk about policy. This is to make 414 00:24:16,079 --> 00:24:20,039 sure that Trump is not successful in shutting down the border, 415 00:24:20,079 --> 00:24:22,599 which he did without the new legislation. He did that 416 00:24:23,359 --> 00:24:26,920 he enforced the law. Border crossings are like zero now. 417 00:24:28,000 --> 00:24:31,359 And the other component is then to remove the people 418 00:24:31,400 --> 00:24:34,400 that have come in, particularly over the last four years. 419 00:24:35,799 --> 00:24:40,680 And because you let in four million, ten million, I 420 00:24:40,680 --> 00:24:44,319 think it was ten million under Biden, that's a lot 421 00:24:44,359 --> 00:24:48,960 of people. You let in a lot of people, and 422 00:24:49,039 --> 00:24:51,559 unless they leave on their own, there isn't any other 423 00:24:51,559 --> 00:24:54,240 way to do it. Unless, of course, all of this, 424 00:24:54,680 --> 00:24:57,000 all of this editorial, and all of the words being 425 00:24:57,079 --> 00:24:59,480 said and spilled on the print pages of The Observer, 426 00:24:59,599 --> 00:25:03,160 all of the these reports, it's all just we want amnesty. 427 00:25:03,640 --> 00:25:06,519 We want to give amnesty to all of the people 428 00:25:06,519 --> 00:25:09,920 who came in illegally. That's really the game. I suspect 429 00:25:09,920 --> 00:25:11,720 that's the game, and I suspect it has more to 430 00:25:11,759 --> 00:25:14,119 do with the congressional districts and control of the US 431 00:25:14,119 --> 00:25:17,319 House and the electoral College. Now, if you want to 432 00:25:17,359 --> 00:25:20,960 have a discussion about that. I am wide open for it, 433 00:25:21,240 --> 00:25:23,079 all right. If you're listening to this show, you know 434 00:25:23,160 --> 00:25:25,160 I try to keep up with all sorts of current events, 435 00:25:25,160 --> 00:25:27,240 and I know you do too. And you've probably heard 436 00:25:27,240 --> 00:25:31,319 me say get your news from multiple sources. Why Well, 437 00:25:31,359 --> 00:25:34,079 because it's how you detect media bias, which is why 438 00:25:34,119 --> 00:25:37,319 I've been so impressed with ground News.

You have to remember 472 00:27:04,359 --> 00:27:07,480 I was on the border right and so I am not. 473 00:27:08,119 --> 00:27:13,839 I'm not fearful of Border Patrol CBP ice. Some of 474 00:27:13,880 --> 00:27:16,960 that is because I have you know, I have the 475 00:27:17,039 --> 00:27:20,039 right to be in the country. But at the same time, 476 00:27:20,799 --> 00:27:23,599 if you just let them do their job, it will 477 00:27:23,640 --> 00:27:24,799 just go so much easier. 478 00:27:25,039 --> 00:27:25,240 Speaker 6: I know. 479 00:27:25,279 --> 00:27:28,400 Speaker 1: It's yes, yes, Wait, So are you saying that I 480 00:27:28,440 --> 00:27:33,039 should not like throw a subway sandwich at their chest, 481 00:27:33,240 --> 00:27:36,880 I should not like key their vehicle, that I should 482 00:27:36,920 --> 00:27:39,160 not try to run them off the road or anything. 483 00:27:39,559 --> 00:27:43,440 Speaker 5: No, no, and and listen, I can I can I 484 00:27:43,480 --> 00:27:45,519 say something that I'm probably going to regret, but I 485 00:27:45,640 --> 00:27:46,359 but I need to say that. 486 00:27:46,519 --> 00:27:47,359 Speaker 1: Then you have to say it. 487 00:27:47,440 --> 00:27:52,160 Speaker 7: Yes, Okay, here we go. Where's all the No Kings people? 488 00:27:52,640 --> 00:27:54,400 Speaker 5: I would think that they would want to be shielding 489 00:27:54,400 --> 00:27:55,960 these people, right, I mean, how come. 490 00:27:55,880 --> 00:27:56,920 Speaker 7: No Kings are? 491 00:27:56,960 --> 00:27:59,480 Speaker 5: They're only out there when it's puffed the magic dragon 492 00:27:59,519 --> 00:28:02,359 and all those sorts of things. You know what, be 493 00:28:02,720 --> 00:28:06,240 a productive person and try to try to try to 494 00:28:06,279 --> 00:28:09,599 affect the change you seek to uh to appear. 495 00:28:09,279 --> 00:28:11,160 Speaker 1: With fling your body at the king. 496 00:28:11,599 --> 00:28:17,039 Speaker 5: No, No, that's wrong, I'm trying to elevate. 497 00:28:17,200 --> 00:28:17,880 Speaker 4: Oh that's no. 498 00:28:18,000 --> 00:28:19,759 Speaker 1: But that is what they are trying to rally. That's 499 00:28:19,799 --> 00:28:22,599 what these local activists are trying to rally people to go. 500 00:28:22,640 --> 00:28:27,880 Do they want a they want to replicate Chicago and Portland? Yeah, 501 00:28:27,880 --> 00:28:30,279 they want that, But nobody, nobody wants to be either 502 00:28:30,319 --> 00:28:33,000 of those places. No, I nobody, no, No, I like, 503 00:28:33,359 --> 00:28:37,200 I think that's a profoundly dumb idea. But these are leftists, 504 00:28:37,400 --> 00:28:41,279 so they are they are animated by something else. For example, 505 00:28:41,319 --> 00:28:44,880 in Portland, have you seen the latest form of protesting 506 00:28:44,920 --> 00:28:47,920 that they took up against the ice facility in Portland. 507 00:28:48,920 --> 00:28:49,839 Speaker 7: I'm a little behind. 508 00:28:50,000 --> 00:28:52,440 Speaker 5: The last one I saw was the people dancing like 509 00:28:52,720 --> 00:28:54,200 weirdly in the street. 510 00:28:54,640 --> 00:28:55,720 Speaker 7: Is that the one you're talking about? 511 00:28:55,799 --> 00:28:56,000 Speaker 4: No? 512 00:28:56,000 --> 00:28:59,119 Speaker 1: No, that was phase two. So Phase one was the 513 00:28:59,119 --> 00:29:02,119 inflatable costoms, Yes, right, I saw that. 514 00:29:02,200 --> 00:29:02,759 Speaker 7: I remember that. 515 00:29:02,799 --> 00:29:05,319 Speaker 1: Phase two was the dance party stuff. 516 00:29:05,680 --> 00:29:06,839 Speaker 7: Okay, I that right. 517 00:29:07,440 --> 00:29:12,000 Speaker 1: Phase three is now jazzer size. 518 00:29:12,200 --> 00:29:14,359 Speaker 7: So they're doing jazzuer sizes like in the street. 519 00:29:14,640 --> 00:29:19,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, and they're getting dressed up in their spandex. Sorry 520 00:29:19,279 --> 00:29:24,160 for that visual, but roughly two dozen self described freedom 521 00:29:24,240 --> 00:29:29,599 fighters gathered outside the Ice facility in Portland's South Waterfront 522 00:29:30,200 --> 00:29:33,920 earlier this week for what they called sweating out the fascists. 523 00:29:34,480 --> 00:29:37,799 Speaker 5: Sweating out Okay, let me tell you that that's a 524 00:29:37,839 --> 00:29:40,480 pretty good job. I wish Rush was here for that, 525 00:29:40,599 --> 00:29:43,559 because do you know what Rush could do with that bit? 526 00:29:43,720 --> 00:29:43,920 Speaker 4: Right? 527 00:29:44,640 --> 00:29:46,039 Speaker 7: Go ahead, give me the name of it again. 528 00:29:46,039 --> 00:29:46,400 Speaker 2: What is it? 529 00:29:46,480 --> 00:29:49,880 Speaker 1: Sweating out the fascists coming to a town near you? 530 00:29:50,160 --> 00:29:53,559 Speaker 7: Yeah, your answer to TPUSA, I mean I don't know 531 00:29:53,599 --> 00:29:54,279 what is this? 532 00:29:54,559 --> 00:29:55,480 Speaker 1: Yeah? 533 00:29:55,519 --> 00:29:55,720 Speaker 5: Yeah? 534 00:29:55,759 --> 00:30:00,799 Speaker 1: So aerobics is apparently how you defeat the fascism, organized 535 00:30:00,799 --> 00:30:05,880 by a local gym called folkrum fitness, and they claimed 536 00:30:06,039 --> 00:30:10,799 that they were standing up for democracy and due process. 537 00:30:11,519 --> 00:30:13,440 You think it will work, That's why I don't think. 538 00:30:13,759 --> 00:30:15,839 Speaker 7: Yeah, I don't think they're going to do process properly. 539 00:30:17,119 --> 00:30:19,359 It's not gonna work. This is not gonna This is 540 00:30:19,440 --> 00:30:22,200 so bad. But I love it, but I hate it. 541 00:30:22,039 --> 00:30:24,240 But I'm glad it's Importland and it's not here. 542 00:30:24,599 --> 00:30:27,240 Speaker 1: Yeah.

But the the aerobics now is 547 00:30:42,759 --> 00:30:47,119 that these all of these methods only started being used 548 00:30:47,319 --> 00:30:51,680 after what do you remember what happened about maybe a 549 00:30:51,720 --> 00:30:55,880 month ago regarding a lot of these violent protesters.
