Customs and Border Patrol reportedly going to be 10 00:00:31,559 --> 00:00:36,600 coming to Charlotte. Outrage has ensued. How dare federal agents 11 00:00:36,640 --> 00:00:40,079 come to a city in America and attempt to enforce 12 00:00:40,159 --> 00:00:45,439 federal law. The last time this kind of a brew 13 00:00:45,520 --> 00:00:50,240 haha happened, I believe there was a firing on Fort Sumner. 14 00:00:52,000 --> 00:00:56,399 Sumter Sumner was the guy that got beaten down with 15 00:00:56,520 --> 00:01:01,119 the kne right Fort Sumter Citadel guys, as I understand it, 16 00:01:01,159 --> 00:01:02,920 guys from the Citadel were the ones that fired on 17 00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:05,400 the on the Fort down in Charleston. But I digress. 18 00:01:07,319 --> 00:01:12,439 But now, thank goodness, the Charlotte Observer editorial board has 19 00:01:12,719 --> 00:01:18,920 entered the conversation has entered the chat. They're not happy, obviously, 20 00:01:19,079 --> 00:01:23,319 they're open borders as well. No, no, we're not. We're 21 00:01:23,359 --> 00:01:26,519 not open border. Yeah, yeah, you are, you got you are. 22 00:01:27,719 --> 00:01:29,959 You believe that anybody on the planet should be able 23 00:01:29,959 --> 00:01:33,280 to come here for whatever reason, even without a reason. 24 00:01:33,519 --> 00:01:39,079 Totally fine. You know, the the actions of the former 25 00:01:39,120 --> 00:01:44,239 administration laid bare who was open borders and who was not. Because, 26 00:01:44,879 --> 00:01:48,159 as I've gone over many times on this program, the 27 00:01:48,280 --> 00:01:53,920 blanket asylum status that was provided by Alejandro Mayorkas in 28 00:01:54,040 --> 00:01:58,400 clear violation of the law, y'all were for that. Nobody 29 00:01:58,400 --> 00:02:01,920 cared about it. Republicans started squawking about it. You didn't care. 30 00:02:03,400 --> 00:02:08,199 So like, I'm perfectly happy to have actual policy debates 31 00:02:08,199 --> 00:02:12,280 and discussions about how best to address immigration, illegal immigration, 32 00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:15,240 legal immigration and all that. But I learned years ago 33 00:02:16,039 --> 00:02:20,919 that people don't want that, particularly Democrats. They do not 34 00:02:21,039 --> 00:02:25,000 want to have this conversation. Everything is about the fields. 35 00:02:25,560 --> 00:02:31,639 So the editorial board over at the Charlotte Observer, they say, quote, 36 00:02:32,039 --> 00:02:39,360 the main question is why why? So you know me, 37 00:02:39,800 --> 00:02:43,960 I'm a giver, So I'm going to offer you the 38 00:02:44,280 --> 00:02:47,759 answer to your question of why is CBP coming? You 39 00:02:47,800 --> 00:02:55,400 ready to take into custody lawbreakers? That's it. That's why 40 00:02:55,400 --> 00:02:59,759 they're coming because there are people in Charlotte that they 41 00:02:59,759 --> 00:03:02,800 oper are going to target to try to pick up 42 00:03:02,840 --> 00:03:08,000 and deport. And if you don't want those people deported, 43 00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:11,759 well see my previous statement about being open borders. They 44 00:03:11,800 --> 00:03:14,919 go on to say, though, because they just merely ask 45 00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:17,080 the question, they know the answer to the question, they 46 00:03:17,120 --> 00:03:19,840 just ask it in order to pivot into this other explanation, 47 00:03:20,719 --> 00:03:24,439 there is a case for immigration enforcement. Oh really, is 48 00:03:24,479 --> 00:03:28,840 there there's a case for that, particularly when it comes 49 00:03:28,840 --> 00:03:33,400 to addressing the minority of undocumented immigrants who engage in 50 00:03:33,560 --> 00:03:38,199 violent crime? So what's sor are you saying that there's 51 00:03:38,319 --> 00:03:44,319 no case for immigration enforcement for people who came here 52 00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:48,400 illegally and have not committed a violent crime? What about 53 00:03:48,439 --> 00:03:51,479 people who commit nonviolent crimes? Is there a case for 54 00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:55,120 immigration enforcement for them too? Why don't you make that case? 55 00:03:55,199 --> 00:03:58,960 I would love to hear you guys dissect that case. See, 56 00:03:58,960 --> 00:04:01,759 but you're not interested in and actually dissecting that case 57 00:04:02,759 --> 00:04:06,159 or doing an examination of that. No. No, you're just 58 00:04:06,280 --> 00:04:10,639 using that as the springboard as the sort of I'm 59 00:04:10,680 --> 00:04:15,639 not saying that that was good, But now you're gonna 60 00:04:15,840 --> 00:04:18,480 pivot over to explain why maybe in some cases. It 61 00:04:18,519 --> 00:04:23,800 is good. There's nothing to suggest that Charlotte has an 62 00:04:23,879 --> 00:04:27,959 immigration or is an immigration hot spot that's grown out 63 00:04:27,959 --> 00:04:31,519 of control, or that immigrants in Charlotte are a particularly 64 00:04:31,639 --> 00:04:36,040 acute threat to public safety. That doesn't matter. That's a strawmend. 65 00:04:36,079 --> 00:04:38,759 That doesn't matter. We don't need to be designated as 66 00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:43,560 some sort of hot spot. Not relevant. They're coming for 67 00:04:43,639 --> 00:04:47,120 a quote brief stint, as has been reported. We don't 68 00:04:47,160 --> 00:04:49,199 know what that operation is. You don't know what the 69 00:04:49,240 --> 00:04:52,839 operation is, you have no idea, You have no idea, 70 00:04:53,399 --> 00:04:56,319 but you feel confident enough to come out and say 71 00:04:56,439 --> 00:04:58,800 that they shouldn't be here because we are not a 72 00:04:58,839 --> 00:05:02,399 hot spot. Tell me what would be a hot spot? 73 00:05:03,439 --> 00:05:06,839 What's a hot spot? They don't define that. They just 74 00:05:06,879 --> 00:05:11,480 say we're not one, with no definition. This is so lazy. 75 00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:16,040 This is what I'm talking about when I say intellectually flabby. 76 00:05:16,360 --> 00:05:19,519 All they have are these slogans and bumper sticker bromides, 77 00:05:20,160 --> 00:05:26,279 just these appeals to empathy. These are not arguments, right, 78 00:05:26,360 --> 00:05:31,879 You're not defining the debate. You're basically just saying I 79 00:05:31,879 --> 00:05:33,800 don't want to argue that stuff where you know you 80 00:05:33,879 --> 00:05:36,879 would get waxed. So I'm not arguing this other stuff. 81 00:05:36,959 --> 00:05:42,879 I'm just saying this thing without any evidence, sending masked 82 00:05:42,920 --> 00:05:47,040 immigration agents with tactical gear to Rome City streets. Again, 83 00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:49,720 you don't know if any of that's going to happen here. 84 00:05:49,879 --> 00:05:51,360 You have no idea because you don't know what the 85 00:05:51,399 --> 00:05:56,199 operation is. Is at best a last resort and Charlotte 86 00:05:56,240 --> 00:05:59,639 is not in a position of needing such intervention. Again, 87 00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:04,079 you don't know if that's a last resort. President Trump 88 00:06:04,160 --> 00:06:08,040 ran on a campaign of doing this very thing, deporting 89 00:06:08,040 --> 00:06:12,879 illegal immigrants. Why so many, because so many were allowed 90 00:06:12,920 --> 00:06:16,639 to enter under the previous administration, to the point where 91 00:06:16,879 --> 00:06:20,560 even after the election failure of the Democrats, even Democrats 92 00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:24,879 acknowledge to get a little out of control, and the 93 00:06:24,920 --> 00:06:29,839 fact that they lied and you, Observer Editorial Board, lied 94 00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:34,120 about we need new legislation to address this. No, No, 95 00:06:34,680 --> 00:06:38,319 the executive branch did not need new legislation. You just 96 00:06:38,399 --> 00:06:41,839 needed somebody to enforce the law. And that's what's occurring 97 00:06:42,040 --> 00:06:47,079 right now. So you are anti law enforcement. You do 98 00:06:47,199 --> 00:06:52,680 not want the laws enforced. You want amnesty, right, That's 99 00:06:52,680 --> 00:06:56,000 what this is actually an argument about. And you don't 100 00:06:56,000 --> 00:06:58,879 want to have that argument because again, you would be 101 00:06:59,079 --> 00:07:05,160 waxed in that argument. The most likely explanation is that 102 00:07:05,360 --> 00:07:09,399 it's a political move. That's a lie too. You don't 103 00:07:09,480 --> 00:07:14,199 know that. That's the most likely explanation that could be 104 00:07:14,319 --> 00:07:18,000 part of it. In fact, I would probably bet that, yeah, 105 00:07:18,079 --> 00:07:22,279 there's some political motivation behind it as well. Sure Trump 106 00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:25,040 ran on this promise. This is him showing people he's 107 00:07:25,040 --> 00:07:29,480 fulfilling the promise. Okay, but you don't know that it's 108 00:07:29,680 --> 00:07:34,040 that that's the only reason they're coming here. If so, 109 00:07:34,560 --> 00:07:37,839 it's a counterproductive one that will disrupt lives and create 110 00:07:37,879 --> 00:07:43,519 an atmosphere of fear, especially for Charlotte's Latino community. Once again, 111 00:07:43,560 --> 00:07:47,600 I point out ICE is already doing operations here. They're 112 00:07:47,759 --> 00:07:57,399 already doing this. Also, it's not a counterproductive move. It's 113 00:07:57,439 --> 00:08:00,319 only counterproductive. If you want to give him this to 114 00:08:00,360 --> 00:08:05,160 all illegal immigrants, then yes, that would be counterproductive. But 115 00:08:05,519 --> 00:08:08,120 if you are of the mind that people who entered 116 00:08:08,160 --> 00:08:13,120 the country illegally should be sent home as I am, 117 00:08:13,240 --> 00:08:15,439 and there are ways to do that. But there are 118 00:08:15,480 --> 00:08:18,040 all sorts of ways to do that. For example, I 119 00:08:18,079 --> 00:08:21,279 would be okay, like, what is the cost of these operations? 120 00:08:21,839 --> 00:08:24,360 Maybe we take the cost of the operations, break it 121 00:08:24,399 --> 00:08:27,920 down on a per capita basis. For however, many illegals 122 00:08:27,920 --> 00:08:31,240 got sent home. You find out what that cost is 123 00:08:31,399 --> 00:08:36,159 per illegal alien, and then you offer people that money. 124 00:08:36,320 --> 00:08:39,200 So if it costs ten thousand dollars to deport somebody 125 00:08:39,279 --> 00:08:43,799 under the current law enforcement strategy, then why don't we 126 00:08:43,840 --> 00:08:46,840 offer people ten thousand dollars. Here's ten grand go back home, 127 00:08:49,440 --> 00:08:52,679 or nine grand. We'll save ourselves some money, right, or 128 00:08:52,720 --> 00:08:57,159 we can do it the hard way, right, that's a 129 00:08:57,159 --> 00:08:59,919 potential way to go. See. But I'm coming at this 130 00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:03,759 from a different fundamental assumption, which is or fundamental premise, 131 00:09:03,799 --> 00:09:07,600 which is illegal immigrants need to go home. That's what 132 00:09:07,600 --> 00:09:10,759 Trump ran on. That was the main issue that got 133 00:09:10,840 --> 00:09:13,120 him elected, one of the main issues that got him elected. 134 00:09:15,080 --> 00:09:18,679 This is what people have said in polling as well. 135 00:09:20,279 --> 00:09:23,679 And because y'all do not want to deport illegal immigrants, 136 00:09:23,799 --> 00:09:26,039 you think every one of them that got through should 137 00:09:26,080 --> 00:09:28,360 be able to stay. You're coming up with all of 138 00:09:28,399 --> 00:09:33,080 these excuses, all of this demonization of ICE and CBP, 139 00:09:33,440 --> 00:09:36,759 and of course Donald Trump, you know, you're coming up 140 00:09:36,759 --> 00:09:39,799 with all of these justifications and rationalizations for the thing 141 00:09:39,840 --> 00:09:42,759 that you don't want to actually argue, which is pro 142 00:09:42,840 --> 00:09:47,080 amnesty for everybody that got here, which, by the way, 143 00:09:47,320 --> 00:09:49,799 is an insult to everybody that did it the right way. 144 00:09:50,399 --> 00:09:52,759 You know, stories are powerful.

I'm not sure that 183 00:12:35,279 --> 00:12:39,360 her or his interpretation of that is the same as 184 00:12:39,639 --> 00:12:41,320 as as minor yours. 185 00:12:41,519 --> 00:12:42,720 Speaker 1: Yeah. 186 00:12:43,200 --> 00:12:46,360 Speaker 2: Anyhow, I wanted to tell you about an experience I 187 00:12:46,399 --> 00:12:51,039 had just recently. You know, when when the CBP people 188 00:12:51,440 --> 00:12:55,080 come into a town and the community comes out to 189 00:12:55,080 --> 00:13:00,840 greet them with soup cans and you know, skateboard and 190 00:13:00,919 --> 00:13:04,519 things like that, a lot of times the National Guard 191 00:13:04,519 --> 00:13:08,320 has been brought in to restore order. And I was 192 00:13:08,399 --> 00:13:13,000 up in Washington, d C. A few weeks ago when 193 00:13:13,039 --> 00:13:15,799 the National Guard was out and still on the streets 194 00:13:15,840 --> 00:13:21,559 because the mayor, I guess this Muriel Bowser, still had 195 00:13:21,919 --> 00:13:26,559 welcomed their presence, you know, after Big Balls got beat 196 00:13:26,679 --> 00:13:29,519 up and you know, things went out, and you know, 197 00:13:29,600 --> 00:13:32,759 people who were at the outside after our restaurants were 198 00:13:32,759 --> 00:13:38,039 getting accosted and you know everything else. So I just 199 00:13:38,080 --> 00:13:41,279 want to say that, you know, people are afraid that 200 00:13:41,679 --> 00:13:45,240 you know, having you know, customs people come to Charlotte, 201 00:13:45,720 --> 00:13:48,000 you know, or even if the National Guard have to 202 00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:50,799 come in to protect them. You know, Washington, d C. 203 00:13:51,039 --> 00:13:54,639 Is an example of how it was done right. And 204 00:13:54,720 --> 00:13:57,679 I was in between flights of Dallas and had the 205 00:13:57,759 --> 00:14:01,360 day free, so I rode the Metro into the city 206 00:14:01,919 --> 00:14:04,759 and as I came up you know, out of the 207 00:14:04,840 --> 00:14:09,240 Metro down by the White House near Farragut Square. You know, 208 00:14:09,279 --> 00:14:12,240 I had a couple of these uniformed guys. You know, 209 00:14:13,399 --> 00:14:15,440 the one thing I noticed about them is they wouldn't 210 00:14:15,519 --> 00:14:18,080 ride the escalator. They were running up the stairs and 211 00:14:18,120 --> 00:14:21,240 you know how deep those stairs are, two steps at 212 00:14:21,240 --> 00:14:28,320 a time, just you know, nice healthy people of male 213 00:14:28,480 --> 00:14:34,600 and female agents. There were, you know, in fatigues or uniforms. 214 00:14:35,759 --> 00:14:39,200 There were some plane closed people with them, and you know, 215 00:14:39,279 --> 00:14:43,320 the ones who had the uniforms on were armed, and 216 00:14:43,759 --> 00:14:45,919 you know, but you never felt threatened. They were on 217 00:14:46,000 --> 00:14:50,240 the street chatting. Passers by would say hi to them, 218 00:14:50,960 --> 00:14:53,639 and I think they were welcomed by the people up there, 219 00:14:54,000 --> 00:14:56,080 and they were just keeping the peace. And the reason 220 00:14:56,080 --> 00:14:58,720 they were keeping the peace is there was enough of 221 00:14:58,759 --> 00:15:02,200 a police presence. Everybody knew that it was time for 222 00:15:02,240 --> 00:15:05,720 the bad guys to take the day off, right, And 223 00:15:05,919 --> 00:15:08,639 you know, I thought, you know, well, I'll go around 224 00:15:08,679 --> 00:15:11,480 and talk to some people who were local. And you know, 225 00:15:11,559 --> 00:15:13,279 a lot of the people that you meet on the 226 00:15:13,279 --> 00:15:16,080 street when you're up on the National Mall or around 227 00:15:16,120 --> 00:15:19,200 the monuments or chorists. But I did talk to one 228 00:15:19,200 --> 00:15:22,519 guy who was there, who was a congressional staffer who 229 00:15:22,559 --> 00:15:25,720 had his parents there with him, a young, you know, 230 00:15:26,080 --> 00:15:29,759 young guy, and I probably looked like an old geezer, 231 00:15:29,799 --> 00:15:33,039 and so you know, he probably guessed my politics and 232 00:15:33,159 --> 00:15:35,960 I guessed his politics, and I think he worked on 233 00:15:36,000 --> 00:15:40,679 the minority side. But you know, he he told me that, 234 00:15:41,519 --> 00:15:44,240 you know, things had really gotten better and that he 235 00:15:44,320 --> 00:15:48,320 felt safer. And I think if our community would embrace 236 00:15:48,399 --> 00:15:51,480 them in that spirit, you know, it's going to be 237 00:15:51,519 --> 00:15:53,960 a good thing to get you know, some of these 238 00:15:54,559 --> 00:15:57,440 you know, drug gangs away from Charlotte. 239 00:15:57,480 --> 00:15:59,919 Speaker 1: No, we don't have anything like that in Charlotte. Bust, 240 00:16:01,000 --> 00:16:05,120 Oh we have. Yeah, we don't have like the Latin 241 00:16:05,200 --> 00:16:08,320 Kings operating here. We don't have any of these types 242 00:16:08,360 --> 00:16:10,320 of entities or organizations. 243 00:16:10,360 --> 00:16:13,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, thirteen Sinaloa. No, No, no, they've they've they've passed 244 00:16:13,879 --> 00:16:14,759 over Charlotte. 245 00:16:14,840 --> 00:16:17,639 Speaker 1: Of course, of course there's a there are far bigger 246 00:16:17,679 --> 00:16:21,279 cities between Atlanta and DC for them to put down 247 00:16:21,360 --> 00:16:22,480 roots in. We all know that. 248 00:16:23,519 --> 00:16:27,679 Speaker 2: Yeah, Well, I just I think I think we could. 249 00:16:28,600 --> 00:16:31,120 You know, if people just don't freak out, you know, 250 00:16:31,799 --> 00:16:33,960 good things will happen and they'll be here and they'll 251 00:16:34,000 --> 00:16:36,720 be gone. It doesn't sound like they're really here to 252 00:16:36,799 --> 00:16:39,919 patrol the streets. But you know, if things go sideways, 253 00:16:40,000 --> 00:16:42,159 I mean, if you come after them with a soup 254 00:16:42,240 --> 00:16:44,200 can or a skateboard, you're gonna end up with your 255 00:16:44,240 --> 00:16:47,200 notes in the pavement and your hands cuffed behind your back. 256 00:16:47,320 --> 00:16:50,159 Speaker 1: Yeah, as yeah, as you should. Buster. I appreciate the call, sir, 257 00:16:51,399 --> 00:16:53,200 all I have a great weekend. All right, let me 258 00:16:53,240 --> 00:16:54,919 get a couple of messages here off the text line, 259 00:16:54,960 --> 00:16:57,399 Jeff says, Pete, could you use the fifty thousand watt 260 00:16:57,399 --> 00:17:00,799 blow torch and tell Ice and CBP not to forget 261 00:17:00,840 --> 00:17:05,319 about Gaston County. That's why do they got to just 262 00:17:05,359 --> 00:17:06,880 stay in Charlotte now? To be fair, I don't know 263 00:17:06,880 --> 00:17:11,720 if they're just staying in Charlotte seven oh four number. 264 00:17:11,799 --> 00:17:17,039 My question is if they don't want anybody warned, why 265 00:17:17,079 --> 00:17:20,920 do they even tell us they are coming here? Yeah? 266 00:17:20,960 --> 00:17:23,000 I don't know. I don't know why there was this 267 00:17:23,079 --> 00:17:28,599 advanced notice given to New Orleans and to Charlotte, although 268 00:17:28,599 --> 00:17:33,279 I did see somebody here, it is Bain says, a 269 00:17:33,279 --> 00:17:36,160 lot of advanced publicity. Could it be this is actually 270 00:17:36,240 --> 00:17:41,720 a second phase learning where the illegal immigrants go? When 271 00:17:41,720 --> 00:17:44,480 they're told that they may be arrested. Who's helping them, 272 00:17:44,599 --> 00:17:47,799 who's housing them? Would they be considered accomplices? Would it 273 00:17:47,880 --> 00:17:50,400 lead to the discovery of a network of safe haven's. 274 00:17:50,640 --> 00:17:54,039 That's pretty important. I say ICE has some hunches and 275 00:17:54,079 --> 00:17:56,920 this is an attempt to prove connections. The same can 276 00:17:56,960 --> 00:18:00,640 be said about the protesters. Ice has eyes on groups 277 00:18:00,759 --> 00:18:05,400 and want to track their sourcing and movement. Just a thought, 278 00:18:05,720 --> 00:18:09,039 and then he says, I'm told the military does similar things. 279 00:18:09,319 --> 00:18:11,839 They will move assets in foreign countries to see how 280 00:18:11,839 --> 00:18:15,519 the enemy responds. Often there's no plan to stage an attack, 281 00:18:15,640 --> 00:18:19,279 but you gain valuable intel by watching what triggers another 282 00:18:19,400 --> 00:18:23,400 nation's movement. Everyone has certain thresholds and patterns of activity. 283 00:18:23,720 --> 00:18:27,119 There's movement in New Orleans too, lots of interstates hither 284 00:18:27,240 --> 00:18:30,480 and Yon. Yeah, that could be it as well. That 285 00:18:31,640 --> 00:18:34,960 you know, like, just because news leaked out that they're 286 00:18:35,000 --> 00:18:38,039 coming here, doesn't mean they already weren't here. Here's a 287 00:18:38,039 --> 00:18:40,920 great idea. How about making an escape to a really 288 00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:44,200 special and secluded getaway in western North Carolina? Just a 289 00:18:44,319 --> 00:18:46,880 quick drive up the mountain and cabins of Asheville is 290 00:18:47,000 --> 00:18:50,799 your connection.

I've got several sound bites, basically the 311 00:19:58,079 --> 00:20:01,680 entire thing chopped up into digestible chunks for us. Sorry 312 00:20:01,720 --> 00:20:04,440 about that imagery there. This is the press conference for 313 00:20:04,759 --> 00:20:05,680 joining us today. 314 00:20:05,880 --> 00:20:12,839 Speaker 3: I am North Carolina House Representative member representative I used 315 00:20:12,880 --> 00:20:13,079 to do. 316 00:20:13,559 --> 00:20:16,400 Speaker 1: I just forgot my name. Thank you so much for 317 00:20:16,480 --> 00:20:17,039 joining us. 318 00:20:17,359 --> 00:20:23,039 Speaker 3: We're all gathered here from many branches of government, from 319 00:20:23,160 --> 00:20:27,079 obviously our state legislature, our school board, our county commission, 320 00:20:27,559 --> 00:20:32,079 our city council members. Because we do not want ice here. 321 00:20:32,599 --> 00:20:36,559 We do not need a border patrol. As I've already said, 322 00:20:36,599 --> 00:20:39,559 I'm not quite sure what border we're patrolling here. Are 323 00:20:39,559 --> 00:20:44,440 we patrolling Rock Hill or South Carolina. We don't have 324 00:20:44,640 --> 00:20:47,519 borders here in North Carolina that need to be protected. 325 00:20:47,960 --> 00:20:55,079 Speaker 1: Okay, So much of our political discourse is derailed by 326 00:20:55,559 --> 00:21:02,279 leftists pretending not to understand basic things. I don't understand 327 00:21:02,319 --> 00:21:05,119 what borders do we have? We do have borders. We 328 00:21:05,160 --> 00:21:09,359 have a lot of borders, actually, Yeah, North Carolina, Charlotte, 329 00:21:09,599 --> 00:21:12,279 Charlotte City limits, all the small towns, the six small towns, 330 00:21:12,319 --> 00:21:14,640 they all have borders. Mecklimber County, Scott borders. We have 331 00:21:14,640 --> 00:21:18,359 a state border, so we do have borders. Now you're 332 00:21:18,400 --> 00:21:22,200 talking about national borders. No, well except for the coastline. 333 00:21:22,240 --> 00:21:26,079 But Charlotte, No, doesn't have national borders. That is correct. However, 334 00:21:27,000 --> 00:21:35,480 the administration can reallocate agents and officials and law enforcement 335 00:21:35,559 --> 00:21:39,920 officers in order to do these types of targeted operations. 336 00:21:40,000 --> 00:21:46,359 They're allowed to do this. So I again, like, let's 337 00:21:46,440 --> 00:21:49,440 not be derailed by you pretending not to understand the 338 00:21:49,480 --> 00:21:50,079 basic thing. 339 00:21:50,200 --> 00:21:52,519 Speaker 3: We don't need to be protected from Virginia, Tennessee, North 340 00:21:52,319 --> 00:21:56,079 South Carolina. And I'm sorry, but people are not joining 341 00:21:56,119 --> 00:21:59,839 us in Wilmington. So there's absolutely no reason for us. 342 00:22:00,079 --> 00:22:03,720 You have ice that you have border patrol here. This 343 00:22:03,960 --> 00:22:08,000 is a safe city. Our crime rates have gone down 344 00:22:08,039 --> 00:22:10,880 since the previous year. This is just another something out 345 00:22:10,920 --> 00:22:13,319 of the playbook. When you look at Washington, d C. 346 00:22:13,960 --> 00:22:17,960 The National Guard was picking up litter. So if they 347 00:22:18,039 --> 00:22:20,119 want people here to help us pick up litter, I 348 00:22:20,119 --> 00:22:21,519 think we've got that covered as well. 349 00:22:21,599 --> 00:22:22,000 Speaker 1: We don't. 350 00:22:22,079 --> 00:22:24,960 Speaker 3: We don't need people here to help us clean up 351 00:22:25,000 --> 00:22:27,799 our city. We can take care of our city. We 352 00:22:27,839 --> 00:22:30,400 can take care of our own in twenty sixteen when 353 00:22:30,400 --> 00:22:33,559 there were protests. We had a democratic governor imagine that, 354 00:22:33,640 --> 00:22:36,000 and a democratic mayor, and when they thought that things 355 00:22:36,000 --> 00:22:38,599 were too much, they actually called in the national guard. 356 00:22:38,799 --> 00:22:41,160 No one here is called in the national Guard. No 357 00:22:41,200 --> 00:22:43,759 one here is called in border patrol. We know how 358 00:22:43,799 --> 00:22:45,920 to take care of our city, We know how to 359 00:22:45,920 --> 00:22:48,680 protect our city, and we simply do not meet them here. 360 00:22:49,240 --> 00:22:51,799 Speaker 1: Okay, So no, and no, you don't know how to 361 00:22:51,839 --> 00:22:55,200 protect the city. You don't. That's been clear with the 362 00:22:55,559 --> 00:23:02,319 increase in homicides, that's been clear the recent crime since COVID, 363 00:23:02,720 --> 00:23:07,880 like all of like the catch and release judicial system like, 364 00:23:08,319 --> 00:23:11,519 it's clear you do not know how to actually do this, 365 00:23:11,640 --> 00:23:14,240 and it's also clear that other big cities do not 366 00:23:14,839 --> 00:23:16,759 know how to do it, or if you do know how, 367 00:23:16,920 --> 00:23:19,000 you refuse to do I also know that there were 368 00:23:19,000 --> 00:23:20,960 no judges at this event today. 369 00:23:21,000 --> 00:23:26,559 Speaker 3: So next up we will hear from Representative Jordan. 370 00:23:28,160 --> 00:23:32,160 Speaker 1: Love Chez. She doesn't know the people's names her own colleagues. 371 00:23:32,200 --> 00:23:34,640 Speaker 4: Thank you everybody, good morning. In the interest of brevity, 372 00:23:34,640 --> 00:23:37,839 I will try to keep my remarks short. First, thank 373 00:23:37,880 --> 00:23:39,440 you to never one of you for being here this morning. 374 00:23:39,440 --> 00:23:42,200 Thank you to my colleagues across our local government for 375 00:23:42,240 --> 00:23:46,640 being here this morning, for my constituents, for all of 376 00:23:46,640 --> 00:23:49,039 our constituents. I just want to say that we see you, 377 00:23:49,039 --> 00:23:50,599 we are standing with you, we are here for you. 378 00:23:50,680 --> 00:23:52,640 Speaker 1: I feel your pain. Over the past several. 379 00:23:52,400 --> 00:23:56,119 Speaker 4: Days, I've had conversations with community members, with leaders, with neighbors, 380 00:23:56,920 --> 00:23:59,839 and each time we talk about this expected enforcement operation 381 00:24:00,200 --> 00:24:03,279 from the federal government. And I'm speaking to people across 382 00:24:03,279 --> 00:24:07,039 all races, across all backgrounds, across legal statuses, and the 383 00:24:07,079 --> 00:24:11,200 common denominator is fear and concern. We've seen what has 384 00:24:11,240 --> 00:24:14,359 taking place in other cities across this country when the 385 00:24:14,359 --> 00:24:17,559 federal government gets involved. We have seen the undisciplined agents 386 00:24:18,160 --> 00:24:21,319 pointing weapons at unarmed civilians, the indiscriminate rounding up of 387 00:24:21,400 --> 00:24:24,519 civilians who are sleeping in their homes in the middle 388 00:24:24,519 --> 00:24:27,400 of their night. In Chicago, we have seen the worst 389 00:24:27,640 --> 00:24:31,279 of law enforcement. And as a lawmaker myself, I know 390 00:24:31,440 --> 00:24:35,119 laws must be enforced, but the how matters, And whenever 391 00:24:35,279 --> 00:24:38,839 you decide that creating the perception of peace through fear tactics, 392 00:24:39,200 --> 00:24:43,599 through militarized agents walking down the street, that doesn't feel 393 00:24:43,599 --> 00:24:45,160 like a safe for a welcoming community. 394 00:24:45,160 --> 00:24:46,839 Speaker 1: To me, that feels like a prison, and that is 395 00:24:46,920 --> 00:24:49,720 Oh my guy, We're just like Gaza. We're an open 396 00:24:49,759 --> 00:24:52,759 air prison. Trump is turning us into Gaza. 397 00:24:53,039 --> 00:24:54,799 Speaker 4: Is not what the people of House District one twelve 398 00:24:54,839 --> 00:24:56,799 we're asking for. That is not what the people of 399 00:24:56,920 --> 00:24:58,240 the City of Charlotte are asking for. 400 00:24:58,279 --> 00:25:00,599 Speaker 1: The people now some people are asking for you should 401 00:25:00,640 --> 00:25:03,000 talk to different people. It sounds like you're only talking 402 00:25:03,039 --> 00:25:04,519 to people that agree with you on stuff. 403 00:25:04,559 --> 00:25:07,799 Speaker 4: That's what that sounds like lacross Mecklunberg County. We do 404 00:25:07,920 --> 00:25:11,200 not want that here. So I stand with our local 405 00:25:11,279 --> 00:25:13,960 law enforcement leaders, our executive leaders like Mayor Lyles, who 406 00:25:13,960 --> 00:25:16,400 have asked for greater communication from the federal government because 407 00:25:16,759 --> 00:25:18,880 the interest of all of us, I believe is the 408 00:25:18,880 --> 00:25:21,440 safety of our constituents, is the safety of our city. 409 00:25:22,039 --> 00:25:24,559 And we want to make sure that everybody knows we 410 00:25:24,599 --> 00:25:26,759 are standing with them. And we also want safe cities, 411 00:25:26,960 --> 00:25:28,200 but we want to make sure we do it in 412 00:25:28,240 --> 00:25:29,960 the right way. So thank each and every one of 413 00:25:30,000 --> 00:25:31,880 you all for being here again, and I believe I 414 00:25:31,880 --> 00:25:35,359 will be passing this off next to account back to representative. 415 00:25:35,400 --> 00:25:36,119 Do appreciate you. 416 00:25:36,160 --> 00:25:39,240 Speaker 1: All, all right? So he wants to do it the 417 00:25:39,319 --> 00:25:44,599 right way, and the right way yields the result of amnesty. Again, 418 00:25:44,720 --> 00:25:49,839 if you just listen to all of these remarks with 419 00:25:49,920 --> 00:25:53,559 an understanding that all of their positions and arguments are 420 00:25:53,559 --> 00:25:57,319 predicated on a belief that anybody who gets here and 421 00:25:57,960 --> 00:26:00,440 says ali Ali oxen free and whatever name of tongue 422 00:26:00,440 --> 00:26:02,759 they have like, then they should be allowed to stay. 423 00:26:03,799 --> 00:26:06,799 That's it. That's the predicate. Everything else flows from there, 424 00:26:06,920 --> 00:26:10,759 all of these other excuses and rationalizations and justifications that 425 00:26:10,799 --> 00:26:13,799 it's all done in service to that. That's it, all right. 426 00:26:13,839 --> 00:26:15,640 If you're listening to this show, you know I try 427 00:26:15,680 --> 00:26:17,440 to keep up with all sorts of current events, and 428 00:26:17,480 --> 00:26:19,559 I know you do too, And you've probably heard me 429 00:26:19,599 --> 00:26:23,799 say get your news from multiple sources. Why Well, because 430 00:26:23,839 --> 00:26:26,519 it's how you detect media bias, which is why I've 431 00:26:26,519 --> 00:26:29,880 been so impressed with ground News.

Hey CJ, welcome to the show. 449 00:27:24,079 --> 00:27:26,640 Speaker 5: Thank you. I just wanted to say I don't care 450 00:27:26,680 --> 00:27:30,480 what these politicians say. I haven't been downtown in or 451 00:27:30,640 --> 00:27:34,160 uptown in years because it's not safe. Washington, d C 452 00:27:34,400 --> 00:27:37,000 is safe. We're not safe because a lot of these 453 00:27:37,240 --> 00:27:40,119 men that are mentally ill and women, they're out there 454 00:27:40,200 --> 00:27:43,519 and they're carrying night and gosh only knows what until 455 00:27:43,559 --> 00:27:46,200 they build a hospital where they should be in where 456 00:27:46,200 --> 00:27:49,279 they can watch them. They're out on the street, and 457 00:27:49,279 --> 00:27:52,440 then they keep letting them out. I think they should 458 00:27:52,519 --> 00:27:57,720 I think these politicians should be well eradicated to something 459 00:27:57,720 --> 00:28:01,400 because they're not doing their job is an absolute joke. 460 00:28:01,960 --> 00:28:05,000 So they do something. I think that should come here 461 00:28:05,400 --> 00:28:08,599 and police the streets and get all of these people 462 00:28:08,640 --> 00:28:11,200 who are meittially il off the street. But they're going 463 00:28:11,279 --> 00:28:11,799 to put them. 464 00:28:11,880 --> 00:28:12,559 Speaker 1: Well, CG. 465 00:28:12,640 --> 00:28:14,680 Speaker 5: They need to build a hospitals. They can build other 466 00:28:14,759 --> 00:28:15,759 things that can build. 467 00:28:15,519 --> 00:28:17,960 Speaker 1: A hospital, Yeah, well we used we used to have one. 468 00:28:18,000 --> 00:28:20,519 They shut it down, the Darthy Dix Hospital up in 469 00:28:20,640 --> 00:28:23,440 Raleigh area. And this is one of the things that 470 00:28:24,000 --> 00:28:26,559 the local FOP said when they endorsed the idea of 471 00:28:26,599 --> 00:28:29,640 the National Guard coming to Charlotte was that it will 472 00:28:30,000 --> 00:28:34,359 relieve some of the pressure on CMPD, which is understaffed. 473 00:28:35,079 --> 00:28:37,440 But that is not what I understand the CBP role 474 00:28:37,559 --> 00:28:39,960 to be. But I appreciate the call. Have a great weekend, CJ. 475 00:28:41,359 --> 00:28:45,960 CBP is apparently coming to do a brief stint. They've 476 00:28:46,000 --> 00:28:50,039 got operations that they're going to be running. There's another 477 00:28:50,079 --> 00:28:54,240 thing to keep in mind here too. The alarmism is 478 00:28:54,279 --> 00:28:58,400 a it's a tried and true strategy of leftist agitators 479 00:28:58,400 --> 00:29:05,279 and organizations, and they have an incentive. These organizations and 480 00:29:05,400 --> 00:29:11,559 politicians have an incentive to make people afraid because that 481 00:29:11,759 --> 00:29:17,359 makes those people a little more sticky to the organizations 482 00:29:17,519 --> 00:29:23,680 and the politicians. Right. It shows the people that are 483 00:29:24,039 --> 00:29:29,119 getting these warnings, shows them that this activist organization is 484 00:29:29,160 --> 00:29:34,279 looking out for them, and that breeds loyalty. So they 485 00:29:34,279 --> 00:29:37,839 have incentives here as well. Let me pick up the 486 00:29:37,880 --> 00:29:39,079 audio from the press conference. 487 00:29:39,519 --> 00:29:41,680 Speaker 3: We have so many people here to speak. I'm actually 488 00:29:41,680 --> 00:29:44,440 going to stalk to one of our community members who 489 00:29:44,480 --> 00:29:47,839 actually came up from Charleston without having to go through 490 00:29:47,880 --> 00:29:50,680 border patrol, who is representing. 491 00:29:50,279 --> 00:29:55,720 Speaker 1: Scius Waca Waca, Waka, get it, just across the border. 492 00:29:55,839 --> 00:29:56,119 Get it. 493 00:29:56,160 --> 00:29:58,480 Speaker 6: I'm one of my brothers and sisters. It's a good 494 00:29:58,559 --> 00:30:01,200 morning to be here on this chill, but it's an 495 00:30:01,240 --> 00:30:04,400 exciting morning to be here travel from Charleston. I am 496 00:30:04,440 --> 00:30:07,519 My name is Nis Brown. I am the union representative 497 00:30:07,559 --> 00:30:11,039 for the North Carolina area. I represent the workers here 498 00:30:11,039 --> 00:30:14,799 in North Carolina, and I came to stand in solidarity 499 00:30:14,880 --> 00:30:20,519 with our politicians, our community leaders, our working families, our children, 500 00:30:20,759 --> 00:30:24,799 the entire Charlotte community. I actually want to say that 501 00:30:24,960 --> 00:30:28,200 I'm a union leader that believe in making it clear 502 00:30:28,319 --> 00:30:33,599 that our priority is to protect our workers, no matter 503 00:30:33,720 --> 00:30:36,519 who they are, no matter the color of their skin, 504 00:30:37,039 --> 00:30:41,160 It doesn't matter where they came from. Our priority is 505 00:30:41,240 --> 00:30:44,640 to protect our workers. 506 00:30:44,680 --> 00:30:47,400 Speaker 1: So would that include the workers that have their wages 507 00:30:47,519 --> 00:30:51,960 undercut by illegal labor? What about those workers? I mean, 508 00:30:51,960 --> 00:30:53,400 it's sciu. 509 00:30:54,559 --> 00:30:54,759 Speaker 4: Right. 510 00:30:56,039 --> 00:30:59,119 Speaker 6: The part in US custom and border control here in 511 00:30:59,200 --> 00:31:02,160 Charlotte does not make sense. I'm with you, sister, in 512 00:31:02,680 --> 00:31:06,759 our city is an attack on our community, our workers, 513 00:31:06,759 --> 00:31:10,400 and our first amendments. The deployment is a pattern from 514 00:31:10,400 --> 00:31:14,799 the administration that target democratic led city. 515 00:31:15,079 --> 00:31:18,039 Speaker 1: Well, all of the cities are Democrat led, and you 516 00:31:18,079 --> 00:31:22,680 guys can't seem to do anything different, you know, like 517 00:31:23,079 --> 00:31:25,920 all of these democrat led cities behave in the same ways. 518 00:31:27,240 --> 00:31:30,640 So yes, that's where you're going to send these types 519 00:31:30,680 --> 00:31:32,079 of operators. 520 00:31:31,759 --> 00:31:34,440 Speaker 6: Especially those led by black leaders. 521 00:31:34,559 --> 00:31:36,640 Speaker 1: Ah, there it is who choose. 522 00:31:36,400 --> 00:31:39,680 Speaker 6: To welcome all of God's children. 523 00:31:39,599 --> 00:31:43,720 Speaker 1: Legal and illegal. See again, notice there's never any differentiation 524 00:31:43,880 --> 00:31:47,880 between legal and illegal. Never. I don't know. 525 00:31:47,839 --> 00:31:50,640 Speaker 6: About you, but Charlotte is a Bible city and we 526 00:31:50,720 --> 00:31:55,119 believe that we love everybody. All of us are God's children. 527 00:31:55,440 --> 00:31:59,160 So no workers should feel fair being in the city 528 00:31:59,200 --> 00:32:00,559 of Charlotte. 529 00:32:00,039 --> 00:32:02,759 Speaker 1: About ones that commit violent crime, should they fear feel 530 00:32:02,759 --> 00:32:07,920 fear in the Bible city. No, yes, curious city. Oh 531 00:32:07,960 --> 00:32:11,559 they get to some questions from the media. Spoiler alert, 532 00:32:11,599 --> 00:32:12,480 no hard questions. 533 00:32:12,599 --> 00:32:18,079 Speaker 6: Be detained, assaulted, taken by federal agents simply for showing 534 00:32:18,160 --> 00:32:18,759 up for work. 535 00:32:19,400 --> 00:32:23,000 Speaker 1: No, no, no, they were. They're taken into custody because 536 00:32:23,000 --> 00:32:27,200 they were legal aliens. That's that's the reason. It's not 537 00:32:27,279 --> 00:32:28,960 just because it's not because they showed up for work. 538 00:32:30,480 --> 00:32:34,559 Speaker 6: We don't need immigration and custom and force coming into 539 00:32:34,680 --> 00:32:40,799 Charlotte disrupting our city, creating fear in our city and workplace, 540 00:32:41,200 --> 00:32:45,720 trying to divide our community and to make surete a 541 00:32:45,839 --> 00:32:46,920 less safe place. 542 00:32:47,400 --> 00:32:49,759 Speaker 1: No it yeah, it's not a less safe place. It's 543 00:32:49,799 --> 00:32:53,839 only going to get less safe if you democrats and 544 00:32:53,920 --> 00:32:58,720 activists start acting like dumbasses and start attacking law enforcement. 545 00:32:59,200 --> 00:33:02,119 That's what makes things unsafe. See, when you think that 546 00:33:02,160 --> 00:33:04,359 the laws don't apply to you. And I understand why 547 00:33:04,400 --> 00:33:09,519 you would think that, because you're literally advocating for lawbreakers 548 00:33:09,599 --> 00:33:12,079 to not be held accountable under the law. So I understand, 549 00:33:12,119 --> 00:33:14,480 like this is your mode of thinking, But try to 550 00:33:14,519 --> 00:33:17,880 put yourself in someone else's position. They think that if 551 00:33:17,880 --> 00:33:20,599 you break the law, that you should not be allowed 552 00:33:20,680 --> 00:33:22,720 to break the law and that there should be a penalty, 553 00:33:22,759 --> 00:33:24,559 and that's what you're seeing. So as long as you 554 00:33:24,559 --> 00:33:27,559 guys don't attack law enforcement, it's not going to make 555 00:33:27,640 --> 00:33:31,039 us less safe. All right. That'll do it for this episode. 556 00:33:31,039 --> 00:33:33,119 Thank you so much for listening.
