  Speaker 2: affecting Americans.

  Speaker 1: Well, that's exactly right.
• 0:17
  Speaker 3: We got a lot to report on this week, starting
• 0:19
  Speaker 3: off with the amazing news that broke just a few
• 0:22
  Speaker 3: days ago that the Biden administration actually flew three hundred
• 0:28
  Speaker 3: and twenty thousand illegal immigrants into the United States. So
• 0:32
  Speaker 3: they're not passively sitting there responding to this invasion. They
• 0:36
  Speaker 3: are going out actively soliciting illegal immigrants, flying him into America.
• 0:42
  Speaker 3: We'll give you all the details. Beyond that, we've got
• 0:45
  Speaker 3: massive wildfires that are burning in the state of Texas
• 0:48
  Speaker 3: up in the Panhandle. I was there just a few
• 0:50
  Speaker 3: days ago. I'll give you the first hand report from
• 0:53
  Speaker 3: the ground. And finally, Joe Biden at the State of
• 0:57
  Speaker 3: the Union. This is actually an amazing story. Hot on
• 1:00
  Speaker 3: a hot mic, talking smack talking trash to Israel, talking
• 1:05
  Speaker 3: about how he's trying to bully the State of Israel.
• 1:09
  Speaker 3: The anti Israel animus in this administration is remarkable.
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: We'll walk through it.
• 1:16
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that it certainly is, and that is something you
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: do not want to miss. I want to tell you
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: real quick though about our friends over at Patriot Mobile.
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: If you have a cell phone, it's time for you
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: to get rid of woke Big Mobile and switch to
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: Patriot Mobile. You may not realize it in this election year,
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: but Big Mobile is giving massive donations to Democratic candidates,
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: causes organizations, and also big donations to Plan Parenthood. That's right,
• 1:42
  Speaker 2: they're giving big donations to Plan Parenthood. If you're with
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: Big Mobile, stop giving them your money and make the
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: switch to Patriot Mobile. Patriot Mobile has been in business
• 1:53
  Speaker 2: now for more than a decade. And when I say
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: that you get the same exact coverage that you're used to,
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: you actually do. When I look at my phone in
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: the top left corner, it says Patriot and Patriot Mobile
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: gives me dependable nationwide coverage and giving me access to
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: all three major networks. Now that means I get the
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: coverage that I need without funding the woke agenda of
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: the left. Now, when you switch to Patriot Mobile, you're
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: sending a message because when you pay that bill, about
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: five percent of that bill every month goes back to
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: actually support conservative causes. That's their mission. At Patriot Mobile.
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: They get money to organizations that support free speech, religious freedom,
• 2:30

• 3:09
  Speaker 2: talk about this issue, and it really did not get
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: a lot of media attention, and it absolutely should and
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: it's something that I hope vertic listeners will expose and
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: spread this everywhere on social media. The Biden administration has
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: flat out admitted now that they flew in three hundred
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: and twenty thousand illegal immigrants secretly into the us to
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: quote reduce the number of crossings at the southern border.
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: So we're importing illegal immigrants and they will not tell
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: us what cities they drop these illegal immigrants off in.
• 3:46
  Speaker 3: Well, Ben, every word you just said there is true.
• 3:49
  Speaker 3: And what's astonishing is number one, you can't learn any
• 3:52
  Speaker 3: of it listening to the corporate media. CNN won't report
• 3:55
  Speaker 3: on it, ABCNBCCBS, they won't report on it. But every
• 3:59
  Speaker 3: element of that is astonishing. So look, Joe Biden, the
• 4:03
  Speaker 3: administration likes to portray themselves as helpless victims. There was
• 4:07
  Speaker 3: just this massive influx of illegal immigration. They had nothing
• 4:11
  Speaker 3: to do with it. It was not their fault. They
• 4:13
  Speaker 3: were just innocent bystanders. Well, this story, it's not just
• 4:18
  Speaker 3: the ten point four million illegal immigrants that have crossed
• 4:23
  Speaker 3: illegally under Joe Biden that have been encountered at the
• 4:27
  Speaker 3: southern border, or that we know about their god aways.
• 4:30
  Speaker 3: The border patrols saw them, they spotted them, but they
• 4:33
  Speaker 3: got away. It's not just that. But just in the
• 4:36
  Speaker 3: last few days, it broke that the Biden administration flew
• 4:40
  Speaker 3: over three hundred and twenty thousand illegal immigrants secretly into
• 4:46
  Speaker 3: the US. And understand This is not flying them from
• 4:50
  Speaker 3: McCallan or Laredo or El Paso to somewhere else in
• 4:53
  Speaker 3: the US. This is flying them from foreign countries. So
• 4:57
  Speaker 3: the Biden administration is connect acting with illegal immigrants in
• 5:02
  Speaker 3: foreign countries, saying, Hey, you want to come illegally to America,
• 5:06
  Speaker 3: we will fly you. We will put you on a plane,
• 5:09
  Speaker 3: we will fly you illegally into this country. By the way,
• 5:12
  Speaker 3: they have an easy solution if they don't want to
• 5:14
  Speaker 3: do that, they could just say we're not going to
• 5:17
  Speaker 3: fly you. But they didn't do that. And then, amazingly,
• 5:21
  Speaker 3: when this story broke, the Biden administration's position is we're
• 5:24
  Speaker 3: not going to tell you what cities that we flew
• 5:28
  Speaker 3: these three hundred and twenty thousand illegal immigrants too, And
• 5:33
  Speaker 3: they're simply refusing to answer that question.
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: They said it was a security issue.
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: They said it was a security issue, and that's why,
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: which is the biggest load. I'm sorry a bs Ever, Yes,
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: I mean this is a cover up because they know
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: that local cities mayors will be probably furious if they
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: didn't know about this. This goes back to what we
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: saw with the federal government doing this in the middle
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: of the night. Remember when they were dropping off people
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: that came into America from Texas on airplanes, on buses
• 6:02
  Speaker 2: in the middle of the night in smaller cities without
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: notifying local authorities there.
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: This is corruption at a whole other level.
• 6:10
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and understand, the reason we know this is not
• 6:13
  Speaker 3: because the Biden administration told us. It's not because they
• 6:16
  Speaker 3: told the American people and said, hey, we're doing this,
• 6:19
  Speaker 3: we think this is important. What happened was they were sued.
• 6:22
  Speaker 3: They were sued under the Freedom of Information Act by
• 6:25
  Speaker 3: the Center for Immigration Studies, and in response to that lawsuit,
• 6:30
  Speaker 3: they released documents that showed that the Biden administration had
• 6:35
  Speaker 3: paid for secretive flights of hundreds of thousands of eligal
• 6:42
  Speaker 3: immigrants and they flew them into at least forty three
• 6:47
  Speaker 3: different American airports. And this is from January to December
• 6:50
  Speaker 3: twenty twenty three, so this is last year, three hundred
• 6:53
  Speaker 3: and twenty thousand illegal immigrants they flew into. And the
• 6:56
  Speaker 3: amazing thing is when asked what were the forty three
• 6:59
  Speaker 3: airport flew him into, they said, we can't tell you.
• 7:02
  Speaker 3: That would be a security risk. So every community, if
• 7:05
  Speaker 3: you're listening to this and you're in any city in
• 7:08
  Speaker 3: America you ought to be asking is my city one
• 7:12
  Speaker 3: of the forty three that Joe Biden and his apparatchicks
• 7:15
  Speaker 3: flew illegal immigrants into. They're not answering this, and they
• 7:19
  Speaker 3: used an app that So the Biden administration came out
• 7:23
  Speaker 3: with an app called the CVP one app, which lets
• 7:28
  Speaker 3: an illegal immigrant in a foreign country click on the
• 7:30
  Speaker 3: app and say, hey, I'd like to invade America. And
• 7:34
  Speaker 3: apparently Joe Biden said that's awesome. We'll fly you here
• 7:37
  Speaker 3: illegally and let you stay here. I mean it just
• 7:42
  Speaker 3: at this point, I'm literally at a loss for words.
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: When you look at this.
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: What oversight is there from Congress, from the Senate? How
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: can the federal government do this and not alert you
• 7:55
  Speaker 2: guys to it? A program that went for an entire year,
• 7:59
  Speaker 2: the last fiscal year that we know about, and three
• 8:02
  Speaker 2: hundred and twenty thousand, how do you hide that financially?
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: I mean, these are basically.
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: Charter flights, charter planes that are coming into the country.
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: How many flights does it take to bring three hundred
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: and twenty thousand plus illegal immigrants that you are? And
• 8:19
  Speaker 2: I want to say this word again because I think
• 8:20
  Speaker 2: that's the part that vertical listeners need to take.
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: A hold of.
• 8:24
  Speaker 2: Importing. They had not broken into America. We're importing. The
• 8:28
  Speaker 2: Biden administration was importing them into America's interior.
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: How much money was this? Do you know?
• 8:35
  Speaker 3: I have no idea, and it is it is incredible.
• 8:40
  Speaker 3: But you asked how many flights? Let me give you
• 8:43
  Speaker 3: an example. A Boeing seven thirty seven, one of the
• 8:46
  Speaker 3: most common commercial airliners in the world, seats between one
• 8:52
  Speaker 3: hundred and eight and two hundred and fifteen passengers, depending
• 8:56
  Speaker 3: on how it's set up. So three hundred and twenty
• 8:59
  Speaker 3: thousand thousand, that means you're looking at over a thousand flights,
• 9:05
  Speaker 3: and it may be as many as two thousand flights.
• 9:09
  Speaker 3: If they averaged one hundred and fifty passengers a flight,
• 9:12
  Speaker 3: then it is over two thousand flights that the Biden
• 9:15
  Speaker 3: administration booked. They did so secretly, They hid them, They
• 9:20
  Speaker 3: flew them into cities all over America, forty three cities,
• 9:25
  Speaker 3: and they didn't tell Congress, or if they told Congress,
• 9:27
  Speaker 3: they certainly didn't tell me. I don't know of anyone
• 9:30
  Speaker 3: in Congress who knew this. And their whole story is well, gosh,
• 9:34
  Speaker 3: what are we supposed to do when they come here illegally. Well,
• 9:37
  Speaker 3: here's a crazy idea. Don't charter them a private plane
• 9:42
  Speaker 3: to fly them illegally to America. I mean, it really is.
• 9:45
  Speaker 3: And by the way, the app I mentioned that they
• 9:48
  Speaker 3: used the CVP one app that is eligible for people
• 9:53
  Speaker 3: coming from Haiti, from Cuba, Venezuela, Nicaragua, El Salvador, Guatemala,
• 10:00
  Speaker 3: on Duras, Columbia, and Ecuador, and so three hundred and
• 10:03
  Speaker 3: twenty thousand additional illegal immigrants. And by the way, one
• 10:06
  Speaker 3: of those countries is Venezuela. I'll tell you a a
• 10:09
  Speaker 3: question I want to know, which is the illegal immigrant
• 10:13
  Speaker 3: who murdered Lake and Riley. Did the Biden administration actually
• 10:18
  Speaker 3: pay to charter a plane to fly him to America.
• 10:22
  Speaker 3: I don't know the answer to that, but the CBP
• 10:25
  Speaker 3: one app worked from Venezuela. He came from Venezuela, so
• 10:30
  Speaker 3: he could well be in this group. And you know what,
• 10:33
  Speaker 3: nobody in this White House is answering that question. Did
• 10:36
  Speaker 3: they literally charter flight into America the murderer that murdered
• 10:41
  Speaker 3: that twenty two year old young woman in Georgia.
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: Let's talk about the overall narrative here.
• 10:46
  Speaker 2: You and I have been talking about this on Verdict
• 10:49
  Speaker 2: for quite some time, and that is it is very
• 10:52
  Speaker 2: clear that this president and the Democratic Party, I say
• 10:55
  Speaker 2: it again, I think the Democratic Party is dead. I
• 10:57
  Speaker 2: think they're masquerading as communist socialists in Mark. They obviously
• 11:01
  Speaker 2: are trying to fundamentally change this country. We know that
• 11:04
  Speaker 2: they have said come as many of you as you can,
• 11:07
  Speaker 2: as fast as you can across our border. Any border state,
• 11:11
  Speaker 2: obviously Texas is affected. I would say the most by
• 11:14
  Speaker 2: this out of any state.
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: But this is.
• 11:17
  Speaker 2: Now on a level that I didn't even think was possible.
• 11:22
  Speaker 2: That it's not good enough just to open the border
• 11:24
  Speaker 2: to the fetanyl, open the border to the people that
• 11:26
  Speaker 2: are coming across, killing, opening the border to millions of
• 11:31
  Speaker 2: illegal immigrants center. This is now an orchestrated effort to
• 11:35
  Speaker 2: import illegal immigrants and a very expensive price tag. I mean,
• 11:41
  Speaker 2: my point is you're saying the twenty million that have
• 11:43
  Speaker 2: come across wasn't enough. You had to go spend primo
• 11:46
  Speaker 2: dollars to bring in another three hundred plus thousand, and
• 11:49
  Speaker 2: it is still happening right now.
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: Is the other question I have for you.
• 11:53
  Speaker 3: Yeah, Look, we have no idea because they won't answer
• 11:56
  Speaker 3: those questions. They keep them secret from the American people.
• 12:00
  Speaker 3: But I got to say, I want to ask everyone
• 12:02
  Speaker 3: listening to this podcast, ask yourself a question before this
• 12:06
  Speaker 3: pod did you know about this? And if not, why?
• 12:12
  Speaker 3: How can you not be pissed that the six o'clock
• 12:17
  Speaker 3: News didn't lead with this? How can you not be
• 12:20
  Speaker 3: pissed that CNN won't cover this, That the Washington Post
• 12:23
  Speaker 3: won't cover this, that the New York Times won't cover this,
• 12:25
  Speaker 3: that whatever paper you read in whatever city you live
• 12:28
  Speaker 3: in won't cover this. This is a remarkable thing we're
• 12:33
  Speaker 3: looking at. If you assume an average of one hundred
• 12:36
  Speaker 3: and fifty passengers on a plane, we're looking at over
• 12:39
  Speaker 3: two thousand flights chartered by the Biden administration to fly
• 12:44
  Speaker 3: people into America illegally. That they want this to happen,
• 12:50
  Speaker 3: That there's no explanation that is consistent with this other
• 12:55
  Speaker 3: than they want this invasion and they want more. And
• 13:01
  Speaker 3: I got to say, to any reporter, and by the way,
• 13:03
  Speaker 3: it's an interesting thing. Quite a few reporters listened to
• 13:06
  Speaker 3: this podcast. To any reporter, if you're around any Democrat
• 13:11
  Speaker 3: senator and you actually care about journalism. There's a quiet
• 13:14
  Speaker 3: little voice somewhere buried deep in your heart that says, gosh,
• 13:19
  Speaker 3: I wish I could be a real journalist. I wish
• 13:21
  Speaker 3: I wasn't just a mouthpiece for the regime. You ought
• 13:25
  Speaker 3: to ask every Democrat senator you can find. You ought
• 13:28
  Speaker 3: to ask every Democrat House member you can find. Did
• 13:32
  Speaker 3: you know that the Biden administration flew three hundred and
• 13:37
  Speaker 3: twenty thousand illegal immigrants into America last year, that they
• 13:41
  Speaker 3: spent taxpayer funds to human traffic people. That's what they're doing.
• 13:46
  Speaker 3: They're saying, you want to come illegally to America, we
• 13:50
  Speaker 3: will charter a plane for you. And every reporter I
• 13:54
  Speaker 3: ought to ask every Democrat in Congress did you know?
• 13:57
  Speaker 3: And if you didn't know, how do you feel about that?
• 13:59
  Speaker 3: Is that a good idea? Every single Democrat ought to
• 14:03
  Speaker 3: go on record saying is it a good idea or not?
• 14:06
  Speaker 3: Because the Biden administration, by the way, we had a
• 14:09
  Speaker 3: State of the Union speech just a few days ago
• 14:12
  Speaker 3: last week. Amazingly Biden didn't say anything about it. He
• 14:16
  Speaker 3: could have said, I'm engaged in this great humanitarian rescue,
• 14:20
  Speaker 3: so I'm flying three hundred and twenty thousand people illegally
• 14:23
  Speaker 3: into this country and just letting him go. He didn't
• 14:25
  Speaker 3: say that because no one in their right mind would
• 14:29
  Speaker 3: admit to that, and that's exactly what they're doing.
• 14:33
  Speaker 2: Final question on this is, can you guys get the
• 14:36
  Speaker 2: number you think in Congress of how much money this
• 14:40
  Speaker 2: whole plan has cost the American taxpayers, because at the
• 14:44
  Speaker 2: bare minimum, we should know what these charter flights cost.
• 14:47
  Speaker 2: Or can they continue to refuse to answer that question
• 14:51
  Speaker 2: and just say, we're not going to tell you how
• 14:53
  Speaker 2: much money we're spending on this.
• 14:55
  Speaker 3: So we should be able to get those numbers. In
• 14:57
  Speaker 3: the Senate, we can ask for them. But when we
• 15:01
  Speaker 3: ask for them, the Biden administration's standard practice is basically
• 15:04
  Speaker 3: to say pound sand that they have a practice across
• 15:07
  Speaker 3: virtually every agency of refusing to cooperate with Congress. In
• 15:12
  Speaker 3: the House, they have the ability not only to ask
• 15:15
  Speaker 3: for these data, but to issue subpoenas they have a majority.
• 15:19
  Speaker 3: I can't issue a subpoena in the Senate because I
• 15:21
  Speaker 3: don't have a majority. So if I try to issue
• 15:23
  Speaker 3: a subpoena, the Democrats will vote no. You've got to
• 15:28
  Speaker 3: have a majority to have the votes to be able
• 15:29
  Speaker 3: to issue a subpoena, but the House has the majority,
• 15:32
  Speaker 3: and so I will say to my friends and colleagues
• 15:35
  Speaker 3: in the House, I hope they issue those subpoenas. I
• 15:37
  Speaker 3: hope they lay out the facts. That is incredibly valuable
• 15:42
  Speaker 3: and by the way, one of the amazing things. So
• 15:44
  Speaker 3: the House did the right thing. It impeached Alejandro Majorcas.
• 15:49
  Speaker 3: I got to say, I was astonished at the state
• 15:51
  Speaker 3: of the union. Mayorcas was sitting there on the floor
• 15:55
  Speaker 3: of the House. He was grinning ear to ear. He
• 15:58
  Speaker 3: looked happy, he looked confident. He was smirking the whole
• 16:02
  Speaker 3: time at the American people, saying, I am leading an
• 16:08
  Speaker 3: invasion of this country.
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: I understand.
• 16:09
  Speaker 3: It's not that may Orcis is incompetent, and it's not
• 16:13
  Speaker 3: even that he is lazy. It's that he wants this
• 16:17
  Speaker 3: invasion to happen. Joe Biden wants this invasion to happen,
• 16:21
  Speaker 3: and every elected Democrat wants this invasion to happen, no.
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: Doubt about it.
• 16:26
  Speaker 2: And it's going to be a campaign issue going into November.
• 16:29
  Speaker 2: I think everyone running should make it an issue. On
• 16:31
  Speaker 2: the Republican side, certainly Donald Trump will, but Americans should
• 16:35
  Speaker 2: be furious about this. I want to tell you about
• 16:37
  Speaker 2: our friends over Blackout Coffee real quick. I'm not kidding
• 16:40
  Speaker 2: when I say this. It's one fifty two in the
• 16:42
  Speaker 2: morning is the Center, and I are recording this and
• 16:44
  Speaker 2: I do a show at seven am. I need a
• 16:47
  Speaker 2: really good cup of coffee. I need a premium cup
• 16:50
  Speaker 2: of coffee, and I do not want to give my
• 16:52
  Speaker 2: money to those woke coffee companies. You know the ones

  Speaker 1: Centata.
• 18:06
  Speaker 2: I also want to talk about what's happening with these wildfires.
• 18:09
  Speaker 2: It has not been getting I think the attention it deserves.
• 18:12
  Speaker 2: You've been down to see the wildfires that have exploded
• 18:15
  Speaker 2: in Texas. Give us an update, especially for everybody listening
• 18:20
  Speaker 2: in Texas, but also others in the country that may
• 18:23
  Speaker 2: have family and friends in Texas. What's happening with these
• 18:26
  Speaker 2: wildfires and they have really grown well.
• 18:29
  Speaker 3: The state of Texas is facing a massive natural disaster
• 18:32
  Speaker 3: right now, and you're right, the news has not been
• 18:35
  Speaker 3: covering it the way they should. The Panhandle, which is
• 18:38
  Speaker 3: the northern part of Texas, is on fire right now,
• 18:42
  Speaker 3: and the magnitude of these fires there's actually multiple fires.
• 18:45
  Speaker 3: But collectively, you look at all the fires in the Panhandle,
• 18:49
  Speaker 3: they comprise over one point two million acres of land.
• 18:56
  Speaker 3: That is a massive amount of land that is on
• 18:59
  Speaker 3: fire right now. And to put that in perspective, that
• 19:03
  Speaker 3: is the largest wildfire in the history of the state
• 19:07
  Speaker 3: of Texas, and it is the second largest wildfire in
• 19:11
  Speaker 3: the history of the United States of America. It is
• 19:14
  Speaker 3: burning right now. How big is one point two million acres. Well,
• 19:18
  Speaker 3: I'll give you one frame of reference. It is larger
• 19:22
  Speaker 3: than the state of Rhode Island. It is bigger than
• 19:25
  Speaker 3: a state. We have more than an entire state that
• 19:29
  Speaker 3: is on fire right now. Now. Last week on Monday,
• 19:33
  Speaker 3: I was up in the Panhandle. I flew up to
• 19:35
  Speaker 3: go there. I went to the town of Fritch. I
• 19:38
  Speaker 3: went to the town of Burger. I met with local officials,
• 19:42
  Speaker 3: with mayors, with county judges, with police chiefs, with fire chiefs.
• 19:46
  Speaker 3: I met with volunteers, with volunteers at churches and charities,
• 19:51
  Speaker 3: and I just said thank you, thank you for your heroism.
• 19:55
  Speaker 3: I met with families who had lost everything. The town
• 19:59
  Speaker 3: of Fritch that I was in, Fretch has a population
• 20:03
  Speaker 3: of just about eighteen hundred people in that very small,
• 20:08
  Speaker 3: very rural town. They estimated that as of last Monday,
• 20:13
  Speaker 3: as of a week ago, they had lost two hundred
• 20:16
  Speaker 3: and forty two homes in a town of eighteen hundred people.
• 20:21
  Speaker 3: I went and toward the rubble. I saw these homes
• 20:25
  Speaker 3: that were burnt to the ground, you know, as I
• 20:28
  Speaker 3: was walking along residential streets and seeing home after home
• 20:34
  Speaker 3: just burned, burned to ashes. It was astonishing. I went
• 20:38
  Speaker 3: to one home that there was a truck parked outside
• 20:42
  Speaker 3: that home. The home was entirely burned, The truck was incinerated.
• 20:47
  Speaker 3: The windshield had melted into pools of glass. I've never
• 20:52
  Speaker 3: seen melted glass of a windshield, and yet that truck
• 20:55
  Speaker 3: the heat was so intense. There was in front of
• 20:58
  Speaker 3: that same house there was a motorcycle looked like a Harley,
• 21:01
  Speaker 3: and the fire had consumed it. The tires were utterly disintegrated.
• 21:07
  Speaker 3: You could see the radio steel in the tires. That
• 21:11
  Speaker 3: was just all that remained. There was a bass boat
• 21:15
  Speaker 3: that was parked in the driveway that had been utterly
• 21:19
  Speaker 3: consumed with flames, and you just saw melted fiberglass that
• 21:24
  Speaker 3: had melted down.
• 21:26
  Speaker 1: So you had the boat.
• 21:27
  Speaker 3: Carrier which was still there because it was steel and
• 21:30
  Speaker 3: the melted fiberglass had just drifted dripped down. And I
• 21:35
  Speaker 3: got to say, I talked with families who had lost everything,
• 21:41
  Speaker 3: and I got to tell you Ben the fighting spirit.
• 21:46
  Speaker 3: When I talked to people who had lost everything, they said,
• 21:48
  Speaker 3: you know what, our families still alive, were grateful, will rebuild.
• 21:54
  Speaker 2: It's incredible. What is it that they need? And how
• 21:57
  Speaker 2: can people help it. Every time that something like this happens,
• 22:02
  Speaker 2: you see the people not just in Texas help their
• 22:06
  Speaker 2: fellow Texans, but other people, and especially I got to
• 22:09
  Speaker 2: say our audience, you guys are amazing. Y'all get involved,
• 22:14
  Speaker 2: whether it's helping people in Israel or people in Texas
• 22:18
  Speaker 2: right now.
• 22:18
  Speaker 1: But what are the needs and what can people do well?
• 22:22
  Speaker 1: Right now?
• 22:22
  Speaker 3: The most immediate need is saving people's lives. This disaster
• 22:26
  Speaker 3: is unfolding right now. We had several days ago we
• 22:30
  Speaker 3: had some cold weather. We had some snow and ice
• 22:33
  Speaker 3: that helped. Snow and ice is very good for slowing
• 22:36
  Speaker 3: down the spread of a fire. But unfortunately then the
• 22:40
  Speaker 3: weather got warmer and windier and that accelerated.
• 22:44
  Speaker 1: The spread of the fire.
• 22:45
  Speaker 3: There are firefighters who are fighting this fire right now,
• 22:49
  Speaker 3: and they are risking their lives. When I was up
• 22:52
  Speaker 3: there in the Panhandle, they had over sixty different fire
• 22:56
  Speaker 3: departments from all around Texas and from all around the
• 23:01
  Speaker 3: country who had sent firefighters. And I got to tell
• 23:04
  Speaker 3: you I met with the fire chief volunteer fire chief
• 23:10
  Speaker 3: in Fritch, little bitty town. His name was Zeb Smith,
• 23:16
  Speaker 3: and I met with him on Monday a week ago.
• 23:19
  Speaker 3: And Zeb is a great guy. He was fighting on
• 23:22
  Speaker 3: the ground, he was defending his city. I asked him
• 23:25
  Speaker 3: at the time, I said, listen, have any firefighters been injured?
• 23:29
  Speaker 3: And he said, thank God no. That was on Monday
• 23:33
  Speaker 3: of last week. Chief Smith died on.
• 23:38
  Speaker 1: Tuesday of last week.
• 23:40
  Speaker 3: Wow, less than twenty four hours after I stood with
• 23:44
  Speaker 3: him and asked, have any firefighters been injured? Chief Smith
• 23:49
  Speaker 3: ran the next day, on Tuesday of last week, he
• 23:52
  Speaker 3: ran into a burning home to fight the fire, and
• 23:57
  Speaker 3: he ended up being killed, giving his life in defense
• 24:01
  Speaker 3: of his community. So last week I stood on the
• 24:04
  Speaker 3: Senate floor, I gave a speech in honor of all
• 24:07
  Speaker 3: the people who have lost incredibly and in particular in
• 24:12
  Speaker 3: honor of Chief Smith. I got to say, I don't
• 24:15
  Speaker 3: think I've ever been with someone spoken with someone the
• 24:20
  Speaker 3: day before they lost their life heroically. That that that
• 24:23
  Speaker 3: is a first for me. And so I gave a
• 24:26
  Speaker 3: speech with a picture of Chief Smith next to me.
• 24:29
  Speaker 3: I had a flag flown over the over the US
• 24:31
  Speaker 3: capital in Chief Smith's honor. The first priority is stopping
• 24:37
  Speaker 3: these fires. And I will say if you're if you're
• 24:41
  Speaker 3: a listener of Verdict and you're in the Panhandle, or
• 24:45
  Speaker 3: you're in the Panhandle of Oklahoma, because it's spread into
• 24:48
  Speaker 3: Oklahoma as well, what I would say is listen to
• 24:52
  Speaker 3: your local officials, listen to emergency responders, and if they
• 24:56
  Speaker 3: give you an evacuation order, get out. Take this seriously.
• 25:02
  Speaker 3: Do not risk your family, do not risk your children,
• 25:05
  Speaker 3: do not risk your loved ones. In many ways, it
• 25:07
  Speaker 3: is miraculous with a fire as massive as this one,
• 25:12
  Speaker 3: that to date there have been just three people who
• 25:15
  Speaker 3: were killed. Now we grieve those three, but it would
• 25:19
  Speaker 3: have been very very easy to imagine dozens or even
• 25:23
  Speaker 3: hundreds of people killed. Yet two hundred and forty two
• 25:26
  Speaker 3: houses burned to the ground, and miraculously the residents of
• 25:30
  Speaker 3: those houses, most of them survived and escaped. And it
• 25:34
  Speaker 3: was interesting when I was talking to the local officials
• 25:39
  Speaker 3: I said, well, what's happened to the residents of all
• 25:41
  Speaker 3: those homes? And the county judge told me said, listen,
• 25:45
  Speaker 3: we stood up a shelter in a local church. She said,
• 25:50
  Speaker 3: at this point, we have fewer than a half dozen
• 25:52
  Speaker 3: people there. That everyone who lived in those two hundred
• 25:55
  Speaker 3: and forty two houses, almost all of them are with
• 25:58
  Speaker 3: friends and family. And what you said Ben a minute
• 26:02
  Speaker 3: ago is really important to know, which is Look, Texas
• 26:06
  Speaker 3: is a big state. It's a big state. I've been
• 26:09
  Speaker 3: senator for twelve years. Part of the job is being
• 26:12
  Speaker 3: on the ground when you see Texans hurting, when you
• 26:17
  Speaker 3: see a natural disaster, I've seen a lot of them.
• 26:19
  Speaker 3: I've seen hurricanes, I've seen tornadoes, I've seen explosions. I've
• 26:23
  Speaker 3: seen fires like this fire one hundred percent of the time,
• 26:28
  Speaker 3: without fail, when there's a disaster, when people are suffering,
• 26:32
  Speaker 3: when they're hurting, it is also incredibly inspirational. I am
• 26:38
  Speaker 3: never more proud to be a Texan than when we
• 26:41
  Speaker 3: are facing a disaster and I see the courage that
• 26:46
  Speaker 3: Texans show. Inevitably, Texans step up and they help their
• 26:50
  Speaker 3: fellow Texans. And by the way, you know what Hurricane
• 26:53
  Speaker 3: Harvey happened, which is the second most costly natural disaster
• 26:57
  Speaker 3: in US history. When that happened, in large chunks of
• 27:01
  Speaker 3: the Gulf Coast were underwater. My hometown, your town that
• 27:06
  Speaker 3: you live in, Houston, much of Houston was underwater. And
• 27:10
  Speaker 3: you had thousands of people that jumped in boats, bass
• 27:14
  Speaker 3: boats and went and rescued their neighbors. And they went
• 27:18
  Speaker 3: into their homes because there was five six, seven, eight
• 27:21
  Speaker 3: ten feet of water covering the roads and they just
• 27:24
  Speaker 3: get in their boat, they go pull people out of
• 27:25
  Speaker 3: harms way, they'd rescue them. And it was it was
• 27:30
  Speaker 3: rednecks and bass boats. It was incredible. And by the way,
• 27:34
  Speaker 3: when they rescued someone, nobody asked what party are you?
• 27:39
  Speaker 3: Are you a Republican or Democrat? Nobody asked your race,
• 27:43
  Speaker 3: nobody asked your ethnicity, nobody asked your religion. It was
• 27:47
  Speaker 3: just Texans helping Texans. And that I saw that in
• 27:54
  Speaker 3: the Panhandle on Monday last week, that in the face
• 27:59
  Speaker 3: of tragedy, people are stepping forward. You ask how can
• 28:02
  Speaker 3: you help? The Red Crosses on the ground, the Salvation
• 28:05
  Speaker 3: Army is on the ground, churches and charities are helping.
• 28:08
  Speaker 3: I went and thanked lots of volunteers who were just
• 28:11
  Speaker 3: providing food and diapers and clothing, and just to people
• 28:15
  Speaker 3: who lost everything.
• 28:17
  Speaker 2: Get involved, that's the number one thing, and help however
• 28:20
  Speaker 2: you can. And the tragedy there, as you mentioned, with
• 28:24
  Speaker 2: the men and women that are risking their lives to
• 28:26
  Speaker 2: fight this fire and save their neighbor and their family
• 28:28
  Speaker 2: and their friends' homes, it's truly incredible. And I hope
• 28:31
  Speaker 2: they get this fire under control, and I hope that
• 28:33
  Speaker 2: there's lots of rain for this area that can help
• 28:36
  Speaker 2: them make these fires not spread so quickly.
• 28:38
  Speaker 1: There will keep you.
• 28:39
  Speaker 2: Updated on it, but I know that's an important update
• 28:42
  Speaker 2: that we need to have, especially for the people in Texas.
• 28:46
  Speaker 2: Our thoughts and prayers are with you, Santa.
• 28:48
  Speaker 3: I want to also hold on before we finish this,
• 28:53
  Speaker 3: I want to tell you like a personal aspect of this.
• 28:56
  Speaker 4: So.
• 28:56
  Speaker 3: I have a good friend of mine who lives up
• 28:58
  Speaker 3: in the Panhandle town in the Panhandle called Canadian, and
• 29:03
  Speaker 3: I shot her a text on Monday and it was
• 29:06
  Speaker 3: just I just said, hey, how are you doing? Was
• 29:09
  Speaker 3: your home affected by the fires? And I set them
• 29:11
  Speaker 3: up in the Panhandle today and I'm thinking about you
• 29:14
  Speaker 3: and praying for you and I had no idea that
• 29:17
  Speaker 3: she had experienced anything. Here was her response, She said,
• 29:21
  Speaker 3: thanks reassuring to hear from you. Lost my home and
• 29:29
  Speaker 3: barns and half my cows, like fifty of my closest friends.
• 29:38
  Speaker 3: My losses are on the low end compared to the
• 29:41
  Speaker 3: thousands and thousands of animals dead and injured among just
• 29:47
  Speaker 3: two to three ranches here. Love to you and yours.
• 29:51
  Speaker 3: Pray for rain, Pray for the cows and the ranchers
• 29:53
  Speaker 3: who loved them. So think about this. She's sitting there.
• 29:57
  Speaker 3: I didn't know that she was in harm's way. She
• 30:00
  Speaker 3: lost her home, she lost her barn, she lost half
• 30:06
  Speaker 3: of her cattle. And her reaction is she feels grateful
• 30:09
  Speaker 3: because the ranchers on either side of her lost all
• 30:13
  Speaker 3: of their cattle. And that you want to talk about
• 30:17
  Speaker 3: the frontier spirit of the Panhandle of tough and hearty
• 30:22
  Speaker 3: Texans that embodies it. And by the way, she followed
• 30:26
  Speaker 3: up with me and and and said today she said,
• 30:30
  Speaker 3: here's two bright spots in my life. A new baby
• 30:34
  Speaker 3: cow Phoenix or fife for short. We're feeding because mama
• 30:42
  Speaker 3: cow cannot because of burned utters. So understand, these are
• 30:47
  Speaker 3: ranchers raising cattle, and and there's mama cow. Her utters
• 30:51
  Speaker 3: are burned. She can't feed the calf, and so they're
• 30:55
  Speaker 3: feeding the baby cow, but they're celebrating. And then my
• 30:58
  Speaker 3: friend also said, and there's some old spurs she found
• 31:02
  Speaker 3: in her house, the house that had burned down, that
• 31:05
  Speaker 3: my great grandfather gave to my dad when he was
• 31:09
  Speaker 3: seven years old. My sister and I both wore them
• 31:13
  Speaker 3: till we figured out the story in the age. I mean,
• 31:17
  Speaker 3: how amazing that she sent me pictures both of this
• 31:19
  Speaker 3: this baby calf and of these spurs. The house had
• 31:24
  Speaker 3: burned down, but the spurs survived. And I got to say, look,
• 31:29
  Speaker 3: that's the spirit of Texans and it is inspiring.
• 31:33
  Speaker 2: Unbelievable story there, Senator. And like I said earlier, anyone
• 31:37
  Speaker 2: that can help help the people in Texas right now,
• 31:40
  Speaker 2: it's so vitally important those affected by these wildfires, with
• 31:42
  Speaker 2: all the groups that are on the ground there. I
• 31:45

• 33:12
  Speaker 2: want to move on to one other issue real quick,
• 33:14
  Speaker 2: and that is uh. We found out what Joe Biden
• 33:18
  Speaker 2: was saying as he decided to hang out on the
• 33:20
  Speaker 2: floor of the house for I don't know about an
• 33:22
  Speaker 2: hour after the State of the Union. He was caught
• 33:24
  Speaker 2: on a hot mic and his staff was just I
• 33:28
  Speaker 2: mean closing their eyes, shaking their heads.
• 33:31
  Speaker 1: Are you kidding me?
• 33:33
  Speaker 2: When Joe Biden was talking about what's going on in
• 33:37
  Speaker 2: Israel and a conversation that he had with net and Yahoo.
• 33:41
  Speaker 2: Take a listen to this caught on a hot miclver
• 33:52
  Speaker 2: and mistress is one.
• 33:53
  Speaker 4: Of the figs. Great, tell your.
• 34:00
  Speaker 1: Secretary and short.
• 34:05
  Speaker 3: This weekend, you've got to keep pushing without the humanitarian
• 34:10
  Speaker 3: stuff and all the cheff.
• 34:12
  Speaker 4: So I told him that was good.
• 34:27
  Speaker 1: Senator.
• 34:27
  Speaker 2: You can hear Joe Biden there and for people that
• 34:31
  Speaker 2: maybe had a hard time hearing exactly what he said,
• 34:34
  Speaker 2: give a little bit of a play by play here
• 34:37
  Speaker 2: of what he was saying. And this is a present
• 34:39
  Speaker 2: that's basically saying, oh yeah, I'm gonna I'm gonna take
• 34:41
  Speaker 2: my hand off of Israel.
• 34:43
  Speaker 3: So the quote if he had a hard time hearing it,
• 34:46
  Speaker 3: but the hot mic picked it up. He said, quote,
• 34:49
  Speaker 3: I told him, Bibie, and don't repeat this, but you
• 34:53
  Speaker 3: and I are going to have a come to Jesus meeting.
• 34:57
  Speaker 3: And so he's bragging to a fellow Democrat about how
• 35:03
  Speaker 3: he was threatening the Prime Minister of Israel, Benjamin N.
• 35:07
  Speaker 3: Yaho's nickname is Bibie. But number one, let me just say, look,
• 35:13
  Speaker 3: you and I are both Southern Baptists. We both believe
• 35:16
  Speaker 3: Jesus is our savior. But I gotta say just saying
• 35:21
  Speaker 3: to the Jewish Prime Minister of Israel, We're going to
• 35:23
  Speaker 3: have a come to Jesus meeting as a way to
• 35:26
  Speaker 3: like beat the hell out of him. If a Republican
• 35:29
  Speaker 3: had said that, the media would lose their minds.
• 35:32
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Like they're insensitive on so many different levels.
• 35:36
  Speaker 3: That there is an offensive condescension. And understand what he
• 35:41
  Speaker 3: means the come to Jesus meeting. What he means is
• 35:44
  Speaker 3: you stupid ISRAELI stop killing Hamas terrorists. That's what he's saying.
• 35:51
  Speaker 3: We're going to force you. As a response, to October seventh,
• 35:57
  Speaker 3: to allow the Hamas terrorists to murdered twelve hundred Israelis,
• 36:03
  Speaker 3: twelve hundred Jews who kidnapped Americans, who murdered Americans. We're
• 36:07
  Speaker 3: going to force you to allow them to create their
• 36:10
  Speaker 3: own state where they can engage in acts of terror
• 36:13
  Speaker 3: like this, over and over and over again. It is
• 36:18
  Speaker 3: the anti israel animus in this administration and in sadly
• 36:24
  Speaker 3: today's Democrat Party. I've never seen anything like it. It
• 36:28
  Speaker 3: keeps getting worse, and this shows this is how Biden
• 36:32
  Speaker 3: talks behind closed doors. I'm gonna beat up these damned
• 36:37
  Speaker 3: Israelis like that. That's just terrific.
• 36:42
  Speaker 2: Well, and it's shocking, but it's also goes hand in
• 36:45
  Speaker 2: hand with him basically pandering to the extreme laugh that
• 36:48
  Speaker 2: is all about Hamas and supporting the terrorists, and the
• 36:52
  Speaker 2: Palestinian protesters that are supporting these terrorists who butchered children,
• 36:57
  Speaker 2: who took hostage eighty year old women, grandmothers, and and
• 37:02
  Speaker 2: put babies in ovens to burn them for sport. You
• 37:07
  Speaker 2: also have a president during the State of the Union
• 37:09
  Speaker 2: to appease them, said hey, We're going to order the
• 37:13
  Speaker 2: US military to construct a port in Gaza to increase
• 37:17
  Speaker 2: the aid flowed flow there.
• 37:19
  Speaker 3: He actively By the way, by the way, you know
• 37:22
  Speaker 3: words that Joe Biden didn't say. He didn't say, we
• 37:25
  Speaker 3: will utterly and completely destroy Hamas. He didn't say, as
• 37:30
  Speaker 3: Israel defends itself, we have your back, we are with
• 37:34
  Speaker 3: you. You are right, we must destroy hamas we stand together.
• 37:39
  Speaker 3: That's what a real American president would say. That's what
• 37:42
  Speaker 3: an American president defending America, defending our allies, would say.
• 37:46
  Speaker 3: But instead today's Democrat Party, the cultural Marxist, the radical leftists,
• 37:53
  Speaker 3: if they see a battle between Jews and Palestinians, they
• 37:58
  Speaker 3: define Jews the oppressors. They define Palestinians as the victims.
• 38:04
  Speaker 3: And any cultural Marxist he supports the violent revolution of
• 38:09
  Speaker 3: the victims against the oppressors. And so the consequence, what
• 38:14
  Speaker 3: is Joe Biden bragging about when he thinks he's in private, Well,
• 38:17
  Speaker 3: we just got this hot mic here. He's bragging that
• 38:20
  Speaker 3: he's he's berating the Prime Minister of Israel. And mind you,
• 38:25
  Speaker 3: at a time when the prime minister is defending his
• 38:28
  Speaker 3: nation at war after a massive attack, the worst mass
• 38:35
  Speaker 3: murder murder of Jews in a single day since the Holocaust,
• 38:39
  Speaker 3: and what is Biden doing attacking Israel.
• 38:43
  Speaker 2: Well and building this peer. The question I have for
• 38:46
  Speaker 2: you is does this put American troops in harm's way?
• 38:50
  Speaker 2: Because that's the question that everybody should be asking this president.
• 38:54
  Speaker 2: Let's be clear, about one hundred and eighty six American
• 38:57
  Speaker 2: troops have been injured or killed in attacks on you
• 39:00
  Speaker 2: US personnel in the Middle East since mid October when
• 39:03
  Speaker 2: the attack by the Hamas terrace happened on Israel. And
• 39:08
  Speaker 2: of those, one hundred and thirty have been traumatic brain injuries. Yet,
• 39:13
  Speaker 2: and that's been confirmed by the Pentagon this week on Monday.
• 39:16
  Speaker 2: Yet you have a present that acts like building this
• 39:19
  Speaker 2: pier is no big deal at all.
• 39:22
  Speaker 3: Well, look, I think that's right. And the thing to
• 39:25
  Speaker 3: understand is is today's Democrat Party listen. Biden has an
• 39:29
  Speaker 3: open revolt within his State Department, within his White House
• 39:34
  Speaker 3: because Today's Democrat Party, particularly the young people, they are
• 39:39
  Speaker 3: active sympathizers of Hamas. Mind you, the Biden administration has
• 39:44
  Speaker 3: given hundreds of millions of dollars to Gaza that went
• 39:47
  Speaker 3: straight to Hamas. Mind you, the Biden administration has flowed
• 39:50
  Speaker 3: one hundred billion dollars to Iran which is the principal
• 39:55
  Speaker 3: funder for Hamas and for Hesbola and all of that
• 39:59
  Speaker 3: you have. I gotta say it is really distressing just
• 40:03
  Speaker 3: how radicalized the Democrat Party has become and how much
• 40:08
  Speaker 3: they have normalized anti Semitism in their party. That is
• 40:12
  Speaker 3: a terrible, terrible thing and it's something we're going to
• 40:15
  Speaker 3: have to work together to fight.
• 40:18
  Speaker 2: Yeah, now we know where the president stands on Israel.
• 40:21
  Speaker 2: It's caught on this hot mic, and make sure you
• 40:23
  Speaker 2: tell all your family and friends about it. Don't forget
• 40:25
  Speaker 2: The Center and I do this show Monday, Wednesday and Friday.
