Brazil BANS X, Foreshadowing the Censorship Dems Want in America, plus Mexico is BUSSING Illegal Immigrants to our Southern Border · The Ben Ferguson Podcast

0:01
Speaker 1: Welcome. It is Verdic with Center, Ted Cruz Ben Ferguson
0:04
Speaker 1: with you. Center. I hope you had a fabulous Labor
0:06
Speaker 1: Day weekend with your family. And some truly shocking news
0:11
Speaker 1: coming out of Brazil that deals with freedom of speech
0:14
Speaker 1: that should be a warning to the entire world.
0:17
Speaker 2: Well, that's exactly right. We have seen Brazil, the largest
0:21
Speaker 2: country in Latin America, really descend into talitarianism and Brazil
0:27
Speaker 2: is rivaling Venezuela for the oppression we're saying. And what
0:31
Speaker 2: has happened in the past few days is Brazil has
0:35
Speaker 2: banned X from the entire country. They banned X after
0:39
Speaker 2: attempting to engage in widespread censorship. They're terrified of their
0:44
Speaker 2: citizens speaking, and they're going after a major American company,
0:48
Speaker 2: a major American social media company, and I'll tell you
0:50
Speaker 2: Elon Musk is fighting back. It is an extraordinary threat
0:54
Speaker 2: to free speech. But it's also chilling because Brazil is
0:57
Speaker 2: doing it with the encouragement of Joe Biden and Kamala
1:01
Speaker 2: Harris and American Democrats. We're going to break that down.
1:05
Speaker 2: There was also a story that broke over the last
1:07
Speaker 2: couple of days that is really shocking, which is that Mexico.
1:12
Speaker 2: The Mexican government announced that they're going to start providing
1:16
Speaker 2: bus rides with police and military escorts to illegal immigrants
1:23
Speaker 2: heading towards the US border. It is astonishing. And again
1:26
Speaker 2: this is with the encouragement of Kamala Harris and Congressional Democrats.
1:30
Speaker 2: We're gonna explain that to you as well.
1:32
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's certainly important. I want to tell you real
1:34
Speaker 1: quick though, about a really amazing company that you're going
1:37
Speaker 1: to love, and it is a company called Bond Arms.
1:42
Speaker 1: They are a thirty year old Texas based company, and
1:45
Speaker 1: Bond Arms makes the smallest, most powerful, best built personal
1:50
Speaker 1: protection when it comes to firearm that you can carry.
1:54
Speaker 1: They have an incredible selection of unique handguns that are
1:57
Speaker 1: simple and easy to use. They have unparalleled power like
2:01
Speaker 1: the forty five, seventy or fifty asycops, which make them
2:07
Speaker 1: a great personal protection option. I am a huge advocate
2:12
Speaker 1: for a Second Amendment right, and without carrying a firearm,
2:15
Speaker 1: I would not be here today. I had to use
2:17
Speaker 1: one to save my life when I was attacked, and
2:20
Speaker 1: I can tell you there is no better feeling than
2:22
Speaker 1: knowing that you have a firearm with you to protect yourself.
2:25
Speaker 1: And your family that you know is reliable and dependable.
2:30
Speaker 1: These unique handguns are simple and they're easy to use,
2:33
Speaker 1: and I want you to check out the amazing handgun
2:35

Speaker 1: dot com as well. Let's get bondarms dot com. Senator,
3:25
Speaker 1: I want to start, obviously with what Brazil is doing.
3:28
Speaker 1: But one of the things I love about this show
3:30
Speaker 1: is we can take time to explain things that either
3:34
Speaker 1: people may not remember from school or maybe they weren't
3:37
Speaker 1: even taught. And we have so many people they're younger
3:39
Speaker 1: that listen to this show you used a word describing
3:44
Speaker 1: what was happening in Brazil as to talitarianism unfolding, Let's
3:48
Speaker 1: explain that first and foremost to a listeners, what does
3:51
Speaker 1: that mean? Because there's a lot of words that we
3:53
Speaker 1: that are thrown out there with socialism and communism and Marxism.
3:57
Speaker 1: So when you say to talitarianism, what are we just
4:00
Speaker 1: so people understand setting the stage for this big issue.
4:04
Speaker 2: Well, to talitarianism very simply is the government having control
4:08
Speaker 2: of your life, having total control over your life, having
4:11
Speaker 2: the power of censorship, the power of arbitrary imprisonment, the
4:14
Speaker 2: power to lock you up, to confiscate your property, to
4:18
Speaker 2: do whatever they wish with you. And sadly, we've seen
4:21
Speaker 2: in many communist nations. Communist nations are almost invariably to
4:26
Speaker 2: talitarian nations. And we see that whether it was the
4:29
Speaker 2: Soviet Union and the Gulag where they locked up anyone
4:33
Speaker 2: who dared stand up against the government, or whether it
4:35
Speaker 2: was maw and communist China, or whether it was communist
4:38
Speaker 2: Vietnam or communist Cuba, to talitarian governments or oppressive governments
4:43
Speaker 2: where the government has total power over you. And in Brazil,
4:48
Speaker 2: let me explain what's going on. I'm going to give
4:50
Speaker 2: some context because just seeing the headlines it's hard to
4:53
Speaker 2: know what's happening. So let me give you some background.
4:56
Speaker 2: So in twenty twenty two, there were elections in Brazil
5:00
Speaker 2: and Brazil's electoral court granted a man named Alexander de Moorez,
5:06
Speaker 2: who is the nation's election chief and he's a Supreme
5:09
Speaker 2: Court justice. They gave him the authority to issue unilateral
5:14
Speaker 2: orders for the removal of online content deemed false or misleading.
5:20
Speaker 2: And this was in the context where Lulah, the radical
5:25
Speaker 2: leftists whom Joe Biden and Kamala Harris love was running
5:29
Speaker 2: against conservative President Bolsonaro, and these orders were used to
5:35
Speaker 2: target the supporters of President Bolsonaro. As a court justice,
5:42
Speaker 2: de Morees had ordered investigations into Bolsonaro and had jailed
5:47
Speaker 2: some of the president's supporters. So this is a battle
5:50
Speaker 2: between what is now the previous president and the current
5:54
Speaker 2: oppressive regime. De Morees has very strong support from the
6:00
Speaker 2: leftist president today, Lula de Silva. In twenty twenty two,
6:04
Speaker 2: Bolsonaro ie and his supporters attacked Brazil's federal government buildings
6:09
Speaker 2: in the capitol in Brazilia After the attack, De Morees
6:14
Speaker 2: ordered several social media platforms, including X, to block specific
6:19
Speaker 2: accounts that he said had been involved in the planning,
6:23
Speaker 2: saying that the companies would be fined if they failed
6:26
Speaker 2: to comply. Over time, de Morees ordered more and more
6:30
Speaker 2: X accounts to be blocked, getting court orders to do so.
6:35
Speaker 2: Over time, X refused to comply, and Elon Musk began
6:39
Speaker 2: publicly criticizing de Morez. De Morees then opened a full
6:44
Speaker 2: investigation into Elon Musk and into X, focused on quote,
6:50
Speaker 2: the dissemination of defamatory fake news, and obstruction, incitement and
6:55
Speaker 2: criminal organization. De Morees was very unhappy that X and
6:58
Speaker 2: Elon Musk were standing up to his orders. After months
7:02
Speaker 2: of non compliance by X, de Moores threatened to arrest
7:07
Speaker 2: the company's Brazilian attorney and staff over the continuing defiance
7:12
Speaker 2: of the law, and in response, Elon Musk closed X's
7:16
Speaker 2: office in Brazil and eliminated all the staff. However, Brazilian
7:22
Speaker 2: law requires that any company doing business in Brazil must
7:28
Speaker 2: have legal representation in the country. Therefore, on August twenty eighth,
7:34
Speaker 2: De Morees ordered X to hire a new attorney to
7:38
Speaker 2: represent it in Brazil. Within twenty four hours, and understand
7:41
Speaker 2: this attorney that's being ordered to be hired. Once he's hired,
7:44
Speaker 2: De Morees intends to throw the attorney in jail. That's
7:47
Speaker 2: what this is all about. And if X did not
7:50
Speaker 2: hire a new attorney, the site would be blocked. Elon
7:53
Speaker 2: Musk refused to hire an attorney just to have the
7:55
Speaker 2: guy thrown in jail, and de Moores ordered X blocked.
8:00
Speaker 2: On August thirtieth. De Moores ordered internet service providers to
8:05
Speaker 2: block access to X and threatened a daily fine of
8:10
Speaker 2: about nine thousand dollars per day for users who bypassed
8:15
Speaker 2: the ban through virtual private networks, and De Moores also
8:19
Speaker 2: froze Starlink's finances in Brazil. Starlink is SpaceX's satellite internet business.
8:26
Speaker 2: To enforce the suspension against X, de Moores directed the
8:30
Speaker 2: National Telecommunications Agency to take action. The order will remain
8:35
Speaker 2: in due effect until the platform complies with the decisions
8:39
Speaker 2: of the Supreme Federal Court and pays accumulated fines totaling
8:43
Speaker 2: about three point three million dollars and appoints a representative
8:48
Speaker 2: in Brazil. De Moorrees had also instructed both Apple and
8:52
Speaker 2: Google to remove both X and VPN applications from their
8:56
Speaker 2: virtual stores, but he reversed this decision the same day,
9:01
Speaker 2: citing concerns about potential quote unnecessary disruption. So where we
9:06
Speaker 2: are right now, there is no X in Brazil, and
9:11
Speaker 2: this judge is continuing to try to censor any criticism
9:16
Speaker 2: or any disagreement.
9:18
Speaker 1: The most shocking part is the fact that they're saying
9:21
Speaker 1: not just hey, we're gonna kick you out and we're
9:23
Speaker 1: gonna shut it down and you can't use it, but
9:26
Speaker 1: they're saying eight nine hundred dollars a day if you
9:29
Speaker 1: do use it in Brazil. That is an insane well,
9:33
Speaker 1: it's insane amount of cash in America, but it's really
9:36
Speaker 1: an unbelievable amount of money in Brazil.
9:39
Speaker 2: And understand that's not directed at Elon Musk. That's directed
9:42
Speaker 2: at an individual Brazilian. They're saying, if you just are
9:45
Speaker 2: a citizen of Brazil and you go on to X,
9:48
Speaker 2: they will find you almost nine thousand dollars a day.
9:52
Speaker 1: I go to the back to the bigger picture here,
9:56
Speaker 1: and that is the warning. And it feels like we're
9:59
Speaker 1: seeing a surge in this type of activity around the world.
10:04
Speaker 1: Is that because when people do things like this, and
10:07
Speaker 1: governments do things like this, and leaders do things like this.
10:10
Speaker 1: Others are like, well they're doing it, so yeah, maybe
10:12
Speaker 1: I'll take that play out of the playbook because it
10:14
Speaker 1: doesn't seem like we're head in the right direction here.
10:17
Speaker 2: You're exactly right, and listen. This podcast is dedicated to
10:20
Speaker 2: many things, but front and center is the US Constitution
10:25
Speaker 2: and free speech. And we had a pod a couple
10:28
Speaker 2: of weeks ago that focused on the United Kingdom throwing
10:32
Speaker 2: a British citizen in jail, sentencing him a jail for
10:34
Speaker 2: twenty months for a Facebook post. This is a pattern
10:38
Speaker 2: we're seeing across the globe of government power being used
10:43
Speaker 2: to censor and silence views they don't like. And this
10:47
Speaker 2: is being done. Look at this is the instinct we
10:49
Speaker 2: see in America with Joe Biden, with Kamala Harris, and
10:53
Speaker 2: with congressional Democrats pressuring We discussed on this podcast a
10:58
Speaker 2: few episodes ago Mark Zuckerberg's letter explaining that the Biden
11:02
Speaker 2: White House had pressured him to censor views they don't like.
11:06
Speaker 2: This is a pattern, and it's a very dangerous pattern.
11:09
Speaker 2: And the more we see leftists getting away with abusing
11:14
Speaker 2: government power to silence dissent, the worse it gets because
11:19
Speaker 2: it encourages everyone else. And this is ultimately a threat
11:23
Speaker 2: to free speech in America. Let me point out, among
11:25
Speaker 2: other things, X is an American company. Where is the administration?
11:30
Speaker 2: Where is Why is Joe Biden not denounced this atrocious
11:34
Speaker 2: violation of free speech? Why has Kamala Harris been utterly silent?
11:39
Speaker 2: Why has the entirety of the executive branch been silent?
11:42
Speaker 2: And the reason is they're happy they want X band
11:47
Speaker 2: And I got to say, I think Kamala Harris wishes
11:50
Speaker 2: she could band X hear because the left today, you know,
11:55
Speaker 2: been there was a time when Democrats defended free speech.
11:58
Speaker 2: Today more and more Democrats are very happy trying to
12:03
Speaker 2: silence anyone who disagrees with them.
12:06
Speaker 1: You also look at just this story in the again,
12:10
Speaker 1: it's a wake up call, I think, as we describe
12:14
Speaker 1: it here. And Michael Sellenberger had this to say about
12:18
Speaker 1: the world taking this giant leap into forward into detalitarianism
12:23
Speaker 1: in Brazil, and I want to play part of that
12:25
Speaker 1: because I think it's important what he had to say.
12:28
Speaker 3: Budi. It's Mike Sellenberger for public. The world took a
12:32
Speaker 3: giant leap forward into detalitarianism yesterday, as the Brazilian government
12:36
Speaker 3: blocked X formerly Twitter and threatened to find its citizens
12:40
Speaker 3: eighty nine hundred dollars per day if they use it.
12:43
Speaker 3: Brazil's the sixth largest nation by population in the world,
12:46
Speaker 3: and it now joins North Korea, China, and Iran the
12:49
Speaker 3: list of countries that have banned x. It's the twelfth
12:52
Speaker 3: largest economy in the world in a superpower of the
12:54
Speaker 3: global South. It doesn't matter whether or not you care
12:57
Speaker 3: about Brazil. It's tatalitarianism is at risk of spreading around
13:01
Speaker 3: the world, and yet neither Joe Biden, nor Vice President
13:04
Speaker 3: Kamala Harris, nor anyone else in the US government has
13:07
Speaker 3: denounced the censorship. That's probably because Biden, Harris and the
13:11
Speaker 3: Democrats all support the censorship and have been directly funding
13:14
Speaker 3: it for years now. Of course, there is authentic demand
13:18
Speaker 3: for censorship from within Brazil, and it is ultimately up
13:21
Speaker 3: to the Brazilian people to reverse its nations descent into totalitarianism.
13:26
Speaker 3: Brazil's powerful government funded news media corporations have been urging
13:31
Speaker 3: censorship in part because it benefits President Lula's ruling Workers
13:35
Speaker 3: Party and them directly it's now up to Senate President
13:38
Speaker 3: Drigo Pacheco to impeach the Supreme Court justice turned dictator
13:42
Speaker 3: ale Chandra Jimais. At the same time, the Biden administration
13:46
Speaker 3: and Democrats have played an influential role in instigating the
13:49
Speaker 3: censorship in Brazil. The FBI went to Brazil and gave
13:53
Speaker 3: it Supreme Court Justice's advice on how to censor its population.
13:57
Speaker 3: The US government has been funding many of the NGOs
13:59
Speaker 3: in Brazil that have been demanding censorship since the election
14:03
Speaker 3: of a populist president there in twenty eighteen, and when
14:06
Speaker 3: I testified before Congress in May of this year, the
14:09
Speaker 3: Democrats on the committee and their witness all defended Brazil's censorship,
14:14
Speaker 3: and Pacheco yesterday affirmed his support from Maris. The US government,
14:19
Speaker 3: after the election of the populist president Jero Bolsonaro in
14:22
Speaker 3: twenty eighteen, funded these pro censorship organizations which have been
14:26
Speaker 3: demanding censorship. Maris yesterday openly defended censorship to prevent extremist
14:31
Speaker 3: populist groups from coming to power. As United States Federal
14:35
Speaker 3: Communications Commissioner Brendan Carr noted yesterday, that's a direct violation
14:40
Speaker 3: of the Brazilian Constitution, which explicitly protects political speech. As such,
14:46
Speaker 3: the tutulitarian takeover of Brazil is a model for what
14:48
Speaker 3: the Democrats and the legacy news media went for the
14:51
Speaker 3: whole world. Pro censorship scholars at Stanford and Harvard, Democrats
14:56
Speaker 3: in Congress and the US news media have long recognized
14:59
Speaker 3: the First Amendment is an obstacle to their plans, and
15:02
Speaker 3: so they have supported censorship efforts by nations around the
15:05
Speaker 3: world with weaker free speech protections like Brazil, Britain, Australia
15:10
Speaker 3: and the European Union. They're looking for them to censor
15:13
Speaker 3: and even block X. We need to grow our global
15:16
Speaker 3: free speech movement because if we don't stop the spread
15:18
Speaker 3: of totalitarianism over there, it will make it harder for
15:20
Speaker 3: us to stop it over here. I urge my Brazilian
15:23
Speaker 3: friends to stay on X. Everyone knows that it would
15:26
Speaker 3: be extremely difficult from a Rice to enforce his insane decree,
15:31
Speaker 3: much less fairly and equally. Proof of this comes from
15:34
Speaker 3: the fact that the Brazilian government and the ruling Workers
15:37
Speaker 3: Party are still using X, which means that they are
15:40
Speaker 3: also using VPNs to illegally evade their own ban. Brazil
15:45
Speaker 3: is thus not just a dictatorship, but a lawless one.
15:48
Speaker 3: Its leaders are behaving like the hypocritical pigs in George
15:52
Speaker 3: Orwell's animal farm. Now, the good news is that Brazilian politicians,
15:56
Speaker 3: including Senator Eduardo Jirau, Congressman Marcel von Hotten, and Vice
16:02
Speaker 3: Governor of Minaschurais Matteos Simoons, are all resisting the ban
16:06
Speaker 3: and posting on acts. I never imagine myself practicing and
16:10
Speaker 3: propagating civil disobedience, said simoins but censorship cannot be tolerated ever, Senator.
16:16
Speaker 1: There's a lot to unpack there, and there's a lot
16:19
Speaker 1: of accusations which obviously I think are backed up in
16:23
Speaker 1: facts that this administration not only is like sending our
16:30
Speaker 1: government officials down to Brazil, but we're advocating in supporting
16:36
Speaker 1: this type of reaction from the people in government in Brazil.
16:42
Speaker 1: That right there on its face is just total insanity.
16:46
Speaker 2: It is and part of the reason why I'm glad
16:49
Speaker 2: we played that that clip from Schellenberger. You know, Schellenberger
16:52
Speaker 2: is an independent journalist. He's been been very vocal and
16:56
Speaker 2: effective taking on some of the some of the extreme
17:00
Speaker 2: of the of the radical left on the Green New
17:03
Speaker 2: deal climate alarmist. But also he was integral in highlighting
17:07
Speaker 2: the Twitter files, and he was he was one of
17:09
Speaker 2: the individuals who went into great detail when Elon Musk
17:13
Speaker 2: opened up how Twitter had been actively censoring speech and
17:18
Speaker 2: doing so at the behest of the US government. Schellenberger
17:21
Speaker 2: did a very effective job laying that out, chapter and verse,
17:25
Speaker 2: and and and I wanted us to play that because
17:28
Speaker 2: I think he did a very effective job of tying
17:31
Speaker 2: what's happening in Brazil. People might say, well, look, I
17:34
Speaker 2: don't live in Brazil, Why why why do I care? Well?
17:37
Speaker 2: Number one, Brazil is a very important country. It's the
17:40
Speaker 2: largest country in Latin America. This is our hemisphere. It
17:44
Speaker 2: impacts the United States significantly, what happens in in in
17:48
Speaker 2: Central and South America. But but secondly is the interconnection.
17:54
Speaker 2: This is foreshadowing where the American left wants to go.
17:59
Speaker 2: Some of the facts that the Schellenberger laid out. The
18:02
Speaker 2: FBI went to Brazil and coached the Brazilian government on
18:07
Speaker 2: how to censor their opponents.
18:11
Speaker 1: That's stunning, which is insane, And that be our tax
18:15
Speaker 1: dours that are paying for that trip.
18:17
Speaker 2: Well, not only that, but our tax dollars are funding NGOs,
18:21
Speaker 2: non governmental organizations that are pushing for censorship. The modern
18:26
Speaker 2: left has decided censorship is a good, good thing. And
18:29
Speaker 2: by the way, they only censor those they disagree with.
18:33
Speaker 2: They don't censor leftists, they don't censor Marxists, they don't
18:38
Speaker 2: censor communists, they don't censor those on the left. They
18:41
Speaker 2: censor anyone who stands up to oppression. And understand this
18:45
Speaker 2: also in the broader context. So Bolsonaro when he was
18:48
Speaker 2: president of Brazil, Brazil made a hard pivot towards the
18:54
Speaker 2: United States. He wanted to be friends with the United States.
18:57
Speaker 2: I went and I had dinner with Bolsonaro. He came
19:00
Speaker 2: the United States, came to Texas, at dinner with him
19:02
Speaker 2: in Dallas. He pivoted very much, wanting Brazil to be
19:06
Speaker 2: an ally of America, for US to do more trade
19:09
Speaker 2: and commerce with them, for them to stand with US
19:11
Speaker 2: on foreign policy. That's unequivocally good. And Joe Biden and
19:15
Speaker 2: Kamala Harris came into office and they hated him because
19:19
Speaker 2: Bolsnaro was close to Trump, and anyone who was nice
19:23
Speaker 2: to Trump they hated. If you like Trump, they hate you.
19:26
Speaker 2: And it's bizarre. They defined their entire foreign policy by
19:29
Speaker 2: the way, whether you liked or hated Trump. Iran hated Trump,
19:33
Speaker 2: so they love Iran. Bolsonaro loved Trump, so they hated him.
19:39
Speaker 2: But the Biden Harris administration undermined Bolsonaro constantly did everything
19:44
Speaker 2: they could to effectively cheer on Lula, and we now
19:48
Speaker 2: have a radical leftist who hates America as the president
19:52
Speaker 2: of Brazil. He's engaging into talitarian censorship, and the Biden
19:57
Speaker 2: White House, i believe, is cheering him on.
20:01
Speaker 1: When you look at the idea of where this goes next,
20:05
Speaker 1: usually when governments do this, there's one of two things
20:07
Speaker 1: that happen. Either a the people bow down and they're
20:10
Speaker 1: afraid and they're fearful and that can be an option,
20:14
Speaker 1: or there is a major pushback here. But it's also
20:19
Speaker 1: how other countries react. So you mentioned earlier that you're
20:23
Speaker 1: shocked that Biden Harris, maybe not shocked, but it's it's
20:27
Speaker 1: it's certainly something they should be doing speaking out against this,
20:31
Speaker 1: and they're not. How much cover is that giving Brazil
20:35
Speaker 1: now knowing that hey, we're advising him on this, now
20:37
Speaker 1: they're doing it, and we're making sure that basically the
20:40
Speaker 1: world doesn't even act like this is a bad day
20:42
Speaker 1: at all in Brazil for freedom of speech.
20:45
Speaker 2: Yeah, no is that is exactly right. And listen, all
20:49
Speaker 2: of this is field testing what the left wants to
20:53
Speaker 2: do in America. Now in America, they've got that little
20:58
Speaker 2: pesky problem of the first event, but understand their desire,
21:02
Speaker 2: and it's why Big Tech was run by hardcore leftists
21:09
Speaker 2: that fit their agenda perfectly, and Elon Musk's buying Twitter
21:14
Speaker 2: completely scrambled those plans because as long as you had
21:18
Speaker 2: monopolists controlling Big Tech willing to do the government's bidding,
21:23
Speaker 2: that was a very effective censorship regime. Now they are
21:29
Speaker 2: looking at these other countries and seeing what happens, and
21:33
Speaker 2: do not think if this succeeds in Brazil that we
21:37
Speaker 2: are far away. If God forbid Kamala Harris as the
21:40
Speaker 2: president next year, I would expect a Harris administration to
21:45
Speaker 2: move against X, to go and punish, and go after
21:49
Speaker 2: we've already seen Biden and Harris willing to use the
21:52
Speaker 2: federal government to punish their political enemies. Now they're getting
21:56
Speaker 2: a roadmap for how to do that, in particular in
22:00
Speaker 2: the aid of censorship and the aid of silencing anyone
22:03
Speaker 2: who disagrees with their politics.
22:05
Speaker 1: Yeah, I really hope that there will be some members
22:08
Speaker 1: in the media here that will try to at least
22:10
Speaker 1: stand up for freedom of speech and ask for clarification
22:14
Speaker 1: from this administration. I'm not holding my breath though, as
22:17
Speaker 1: I say that. That's the sad part about where we
22:19
Speaker 1: are today. The twenty twenty four elections upon us and
22:22
Speaker 1: the war on masculinity in America today is more blatant
22:25
Speaker 1: than ever. And I want you to know that now
22:28
Speaker 1: is the time to you strengthen vitality over weakness and complacency.
22:33
Speaker 1: The problem if you're a guy is this men says.
22:36
Speaker 1: STOSTRM levels are off a cliff historically at an all
22:39
Speaker 1: time low, and isn't that what the liberal elites want
22:43
Speaker 1: A week in docile underclass. Well, thankfully the patriots at
22:48
Speaker 1: Chalk Choq are here to help real America men take
22:52
Speaker 1: back their right to proudly maximize their masculinity by boosting

24:05
Speaker 1: much news that's been breaking, and we've been covering it
24:08
Speaker 1: on the show. But there is a story that it
24:12
Speaker 1: combines with a story from a little over a week ago,
24:15
Speaker 1: and there was an announcement that happened about a week
24:18
Speaker 1: ago that the US government, specifically under Biden Harris, have
24:22
Speaker 1: decided to expand access to the Customs and Border Patrol
24:26
Speaker 1: one application into southern Mexico. So, in other words, we're
24:32
Speaker 1: expanding a program to bring more immigrants into the United
24:36
Speaker 1: States of America. This happening while Kamala is also making
24:42
Speaker 1: a move to accelerate the overall invasion at our southern
24:47
Speaker 1: border at the same time trying to act like she's
24:50
Speaker 1: in favor of building a wall.
24:53
Speaker 2: Understand, Joe Biden wants more illegal immigrants in America, Kamala
24:59
Speaker 2: Harri wants more illegal immigrants in America. Just about every
25:04
Speaker 2: single congressional Democrat and the Senate in the House, they
25:08
Speaker 2: want more illegal immigrants in America. They are actively encouraging, facilitating,
25:14
Speaker 2: and accelerating the invasion at our southern border. They look
25:18
Speaker 2: at the eleven and a half million illegal immigrants that
25:20
Speaker 2: they have invited into this country and they view them
25:23
Speaker 2: as future Democrat voters. Even so, even with all of that,
25:27
Speaker 2: the story that broke this week. But and by the way,
25:30
Speaker 2: I'm sure you didn't see this on CNN. I'm sure
25:32
Speaker 2: you didn't see this on ABCNBC or CBS. But let
25:35
Speaker 2: me read a headline. And the headline actually is from
25:37
Speaker 2: the AP quote Mexico offers escorted rides north from southern
25:46
Speaker 2: Mexico for migrants with US asylum appointments and here's the article.
25:52
Speaker 2: Mexico will offer escorted bus rides from southern Mexico to
25:55
Speaker 2: the US border for non Mexican migrants who have received
25:58
Speaker 2: a United States asylum appointment, the government announced Saturday. The
26:02
Speaker 2: National Immigration Institute said the buses will leave from the
26:05
Speaker 2: southern cities of Villa Hermosa and Dapachula. It appeared to
26:11
Speaker 2: be an attempt to make applying for asylum appointments from
26:14
Speaker 2: southern Mexico more attractive to migrants who otherwise would push
26:20
Speaker 2: north to Mexico City or the border. And here's the
26:24
Speaker 2: nut graph. The announcement came one week after the US
26:31
Speaker 2: government expanded access to the CBP one application in southern Mexico.
26:37
Speaker 2: Access to the app, which allows asylum seekers to register
26:40
Speaker 2: and await an appointment, had previously been restricted to central
26:44
Speaker 2: and northern Mexico. So now the government of Mexico is
26:48
Speaker 2: actively aiding and assisting the human traffickers. They will provide
26:52
Speaker 2: bus rides throughout Mexico, along with armed escorps from police
27:01
Speaker 2: and soldiers to bring illegal immigrants to the border. To
27:06
Speaker 2: invade this country, and they're doing this because Kamala Harris
27:10
Speaker 2: wants them to do this. This is right after, by
27:12
Speaker 2: the way, Kamala Harris is claiming she's going to secure
27:16
Speaker 2: the border, but they just changed the one app to
27:19
Speaker 2: invite even more illegal aliens. They want eleven and a
27:23
Speaker 2: half million to be twenty million, to be thirty million,
27:26
Speaker 2: to be forty million, because in their view, if that happens,
27:29
Speaker 2: Democrats win every election forever and ever.
27:32
Speaker 1: You also look at at the idea that Kamala Harris
27:36
Speaker 1: now is trying to be tougher on the border, advocating
27:39
Speaker 1: for policies that Donald Trump has had. This is just
27:44
Speaker 1: look at what they actually do, look at what they're
27:47
Speaker 1: actually saying, and then you understand the game plan. In fact,
27:52
Speaker 1: I think part of what Mexico's response here is, Hey,
27:55
Speaker 1: they're hedging their bets, are they not? That Donald Trump
27:58
Speaker 1: could win and then we can actually have go back
28:00
Speaker 1: to the border conditions we had when he was the president.
28:02
Speaker 1: So let's really accelerate and get as many people across
28:06
Speaker 1: the border as we can. That seems to be their prerogative,
28:09
Speaker 1: But it also seems that they're number one person that's
28:12
Speaker 1: working to facilitate this is the Biden Hairs administration by
28:16
Speaker 1: expanding this program and they're going, hey, you expand it
28:19
Speaker 1: and will pay for the bussing, We'll pay for the escorts,
28:22
Speaker 1: will pay for the trip. This doesn't happen without the
28:25
Speaker 1: two countries working hand in hand. Am I wrong that
28:29
Speaker 1: they both have mutual interest?
28:32
Speaker 2: M Low, the president of Mexico, wants as much illegal
28:35
Speaker 2: immigration as possible to go into America, and Kamala Harris
28:39
Speaker 2: wants as much illegal immigration as possible to go into America,
28:43
Speaker 2: both for the same reason, which which is to fundamentally
28:47
Speaker 2: shift the policies of the United States of America and
28:50
Speaker 2: to move them dramatically to the left.
28:53
Speaker 1: Let's also remind people of what Kamala Harris said during
28:56
Speaker 1: the twenty twenty presidential debate this tech in twenty nineteen.
29:02
Speaker 1: Take a listen.
29:02
Speaker 4: Being incarcerated for a couple of days is traumatic, much
29:06
Speaker 4: less the weeks, months, and years that we're seeing that happen.
29:09
Speaker 4: And so part of my plan is also a reduction
29:11
Speaker 4: of that. And then also again what we need to
29:14
Speaker 4: do about taking demilitarizing our schools and taking police officers
29:21
Speaker 4: out of schools. We need to deal with the reality
29:25
Speaker 4: and speak the truth about the inequities around school discipline.
29:31
Speaker 1: I mean, this is a woman, and I play this
29:33
Speaker 1: because I think it's an important point. She says she
29:35
Speaker 1: wants to pull officers out of our schools. She wants
29:38
Speaker 1: to have a wide open southern border. She doesn't believe
29:41
Speaker 1: that illegal immigrants are criminals. This is a defund the police.
29:45
Speaker 1: A woman who says wide open borders, no law and
29:49
Speaker 1: order anywhere. Whether it's our schools or the border or
29:53
Speaker 1: illegals coming across, it doesn't matter. This is what she's
29:57
Speaker 1: in favor of.
29:58
Speaker 2: And by the way, it is difficult cult to imagine
30:01
Speaker 2: a policy that would endanger children more than pulling police
30:05
Speaker 2: officers out of schools. Look, you and I are both parents.
30:08
Speaker 2: We certainly don't want our kids like like we would
30:11
Speaker 2: like police officers protecting our children, protecting schools, keeping kids safe.
30:16
Speaker 2: That the number one way you prevent someone from committing
30:21
Speaker 2: an act of violence is you have a police officer
30:23
Speaker 2: there to protect them. And Yet, to the radical left,
30:27
Speaker 2: if we just take all the cops away, then suddenly
30:30
Speaker 2: give piece of chance violence goes away. That's that's truly radical.
30:34
Speaker 1: Yeah, over the holiday weekend, there was also a story
30:37
Speaker 1: and it's sad because it had to be broken basically
30:40
Speaker 1: outside the US with the Daily Mail of a migrant
30:43
Speaker 1: gang that took over an apartment complex in Aurora, Colorado.
30:48
Speaker 1: This is Venezuelan migrant gang that took over the apartment complex.
30:52
Speaker 1: It's interesting that it was Venezuela and migrant gang that
30:55
Speaker 1: did this. And the video that we witnessed that went
30:58
Speaker 1: viral on social media them knocking on doors with guns.
31:01
Speaker 1: These are few others aren't supposed to have guns. And
31:04
Speaker 1: then if you go back just a few weeks ago,
31:07
Speaker 1: there was warnings that in Venezuela they had started to
31:10
Speaker 1: empty out some of their prisons as long as the
31:13
Speaker 1: people they were letting out decide to go to America.
31:16
Speaker 1: So hey, we'll let you out of our system being
31:18
Speaker 1: a drain on us, but you can't stay in Venezuela.
31:21
Speaker 1: You got to go to another country. And sure enough,
31:24
Speaker 1: their consequences for allowing the members of society that are
31:27
Speaker 1: in prison in another country to come to America and
31:30
Speaker 1: think that they're going to be law abiding citizens. The
31:33
Speaker 1: Daily Mail helped expose a lot of this. Well.
31:36
Speaker 2: Maduro I believe is absolutely doing that he is deliberately
31:39
Speaker 2: sending criminals to the United States. He's sending murderers and
31:43
Speaker 2: rapists and child molesters, He's sending gang members. And it's
31:46
Speaker 2: the same thing Fidel Castro did in the Mario boat
31:49
Speaker 2: lift coming from Cuba, where he emptied out of jails,
31:51
Speaker 2: and he emptied out his lunatic asylums, and he sent
31:53
Speaker 2: dangerous people to the United States. These are enemies of
31:56
Speaker 2: America that want to undermine America. You have to ask
32:00
Speaker 2: yourself is why is Kamala Harris aligned with them? Why
32:04
Speaker 2: does Kamala Harris when they send Venezuelan murderers to America
32:09
Speaker 2: and the Biden Harris administration has them in custody, why
32:14
Speaker 2: does Kamala Harris release the murderers? And I think there's
32:21
Speaker 2: no more important question in this election than that question.
32:25
Speaker 1: I want to tell you real quick about our good
32:27
Speaker 1: friends over at Patriot Mobile. If you are like me

34:41
Speaker 1: moment ago center that the media doesn't like to cover
34:44
Speaker 1: these stories that are affecting Americans. I want to end
34:47
Speaker 1: with this one, and it was a group of illegal
34:51
Speaker 1: immigrants in San Diego County, California that actually tried to
34:56
Speaker 1: hijack not one, but two those school buses full of
35:01
Speaker 1: elementary and middle school students. The local media, not the
35:07
Speaker 1: national media, covered the story. Here's what they said.
35:11
Speaker 5: A group of migrants tried to board a school bus
35:13
Speaker 5: this morning while it was traveling to a school. The
35:16
Speaker 5: superintendent for the Homul Delsurra Union School District informed parents
35:20
Speaker 5: of that incident earlier today. It happened at one of
35:23
Speaker 5: the stops on the school district's bus route that heads
35:26
Speaker 5: to Oak Grove Middle School and Hamul Primary. Meanwhile, yesterday afternoon,
35:30
Speaker 5: in a similar area along another route, the superintendent says
35:33
Speaker 5: that a group of migrants tried to stop another bus.
35:36
Speaker 5: Border Patrol CCHP in the Sheriff's office have now been
35:39
Speaker 5: informed of these incidents. The superintendent says that for the
35:42
Speaker 5: safety of everyone, if a driver sees a group of
35:45
Speaker 5: migrants at a bus stop, they will drive past it
35:49
Speaker 5: on and move on to the.
35:50
Speaker 1: Next This is a story that should be national news.
35:56
Speaker 1: It's sad that we're the ones that are having to
35:58
Speaker 1: turn it into national news center. But I don't want
36:01
Speaker 1: to live in a world where we got to have
36:02
Speaker 1: armed guards on every school bus because the legal immigrants
36:05
Speaker 1: might tie to take over a school bus for whatever
36:08
Speaker 1: their nefarious reason may be.
36:11
Speaker 2: Look, our families are in danger because Kamala Harris and
36:16
Speaker 2: Joe Biden and congressional Democrats have chosen to allow violent
36:22
Speaker 2: criminals into this country eleven and a half million people.
36:25
Speaker 2: It is a profound threat to public safety. I mean,
36:30
Speaker 2: at some point you can't make it up. Trying to
36:32
Speaker 2: kidnap school buses full of school kids, that is, it
36:40
Speaker 2: underscores the level of the threat, and it also underscores Look,
36:46
Speaker 2: as you noted, the national media completely ignores the threat.
36:52
Speaker 1: They don't talk about it, they don't want to publicize it,
36:54
Speaker 1: and they don't want people to know. This is the
36:57
Speaker 1: world that many are having to live in. I encourage
