- 0:01Speaker 1: Top IRS lawyer under Donald Trump pledged to quote resist
- 0:08Speaker 1: the president. We now know he is apparently a former
- 0:13Speaker 1: Democratic Aid quote screw going high pack the court argue
- 0:19Speaker 1: this IRIS lawyer Anthony Soacho. He is a top IRIS
- 0:25Speaker 1: lawyer involved in quote high level policy interpretations and his
- 0:30Speaker 1: advocated action to resist President Trump and holds radical, far
- 0:34Speaker 1: less left policy positions, pushing for Democrats to abolish prisons
- 0:39Speaker 1: for example, and anytime you don't get the ruling you
- 0:43Speaker 1: want at the Supreme Court, just pack the court to
- 0:45Speaker 1: quote defy Trump. Anthony Sako is an attorney for the
- 0:51Speaker 1: powerful IRS Office of Chief Counsel. He's openly advocated for
- 0:56Speaker 1: far left positions for years prior to joining the agency.
- 1:00Speaker 1: This coming from a Daily Wire review of his social
- 1:03Speaker 1: media that has been found. Soco, who holds a key
- 1:07Speaker 1: role in interpreting complicated federal tax law, has called for
- 1:11Speaker 1: people to quote resist the GOP and attacked the police.
- 1:16Speaker 1: Sounds exactly like what you would get in the Democratic
- 1:19Speaker 1: Party from socialist communists in Marxists right now.
- 1:22Speaker 2: SOCCO has co authored multiple.
- 1:26Speaker 1: Revenue rulings, including as recently as April the seventeenth of
- 1:31Speaker 1: this year. That would be three months into the Trump administration.
- 1:36Speaker 1: Revenue rulings are official IRS interpretations of how tax laws
- 1:39Speaker 1: are applied in specific situations and impact how government officials
- 1:44Speaker 1: are government officials, I should say, tax professionals and also you,
- 1:48Speaker 1: the taxpayers, maintain compliance with federal law now. Before joining
- 1:53Speaker 1: the IRS in September of twenty twenty two by the
- 1:56Speaker 1: Biden administration, Socco worked under the Oregon Democratic Senate under
- 2:01Speaker 1: Ron Wyden for the Senate Finance Committee. That's according to
- 2:05Speaker 1: his own LinkedIn profile. His social media activity demonstrated a
- 2:09Speaker 1: strong opposition to President Trump and his administration. In twenty twenty,
- 2:14Speaker 1: for example, he attacked Republicans ahead of the Senate vote
- 2:17Speaker 1: to confirm Amy Cony Barrett to the Supreme Court, saying this,
- 2:21Speaker 1: the Republican Party has completely obliterated principles, integrity and norms.
- 2:26Speaker 1: Screw going hi, pack the court. Hashtag resists, hashtag gop,
- 2:31Speaker 1: hashtag election, hashtag vote, hashtag pack the Court now. Shortly
- 2:38Speaker 1: after all of this came out, The Daily Wire reached
- 2:41Speaker 1: out to Saco for comment on his previous views. What
- 2:45Speaker 1: did he do exactly what liberals always do? He locked
- 2:49Speaker 1: his ex account restricted who can see his posts but
- 2:53Speaker 1: not before The Daily Wire archived and saved all of them.
- 2:57Speaker 1: SACO did not respond to the inquiry on the post
- 3:01Speaker 1: by The Daily Wire. Arkansas Republican Senator Tom Cotton said
- 3:05Speaker 1: SOCCO should be fired immediately. With deep state leftists in
- 3:09Speaker 1: its leadership, it's no wonder the IRAS has repeatedly targeted
- 3:13Speaker 1: conservatives and conservative organizations, Cotton said to Daily Wire, this
- 3:18Speaker 1: individual should be fired immediately. SOCCO is currently one of
- 3:23Speaker 1: the main attorneys like not low level, not mid level,
- 3:26Speaker 1: one of the top docs right, the main attorneys in
- 3:28Speaker 1: the IRAF Chief Council Office who specializes in looking to
- 3:34Speaker 1: at pass through businesses, a tax structure where owners are
- 3:37Speaker 1: taxed at the individual rate than corporate levels. The revenue
- 3:40Speaker 1: ruling he drafted in April, for example, with drew one
- 3:44Speaker 1: he had written under Biden, which increased regulations on certain
- 3:47Speaker 1: business partnerships. It was based on an executive order from
- 3:51Speaker 1: Trump ordering his administration to cut unnecessary regulations, meaning a
- 3:56Speaker 1: advocate for resisting Trump was left responsible for putting his
- 4:01Speaker 1: orders into effect. According to one senior Republican aid who
- 4:05Speaker 1: worked on finance issues in the Senate, saco's office was
- 4:08Speaker 1: viewsed as politicized as a politicized office in the financial
- 4:13Speaker 1: policy world. It was, for example, behind plans that would
- 4:18Speaker 1: supercharge the RS beyond its current current form. The AID
- 4:22Speaker 1: pointed to the irf's push for a quote direct file
- 4:25Speaker 1: program that was approved by the Chief Council's Office during
- 4:28Speaker 1: the Biden administration, which Republicans argued would have turned the
- 4:31Speaker 1: IRS into a tax preparer, tax elector, and tax enforcer.
- 4:37Speaker 1: The idea that a far left resistor who helped the
- 4:39Speaker 1: Biden's IRS set policy is now setting policy for Trump
- 4:44Speaker 1: is deeply concerning, the AID told The Daily Wire, adding
- 4:48Speaker 1: that the Treasury Secretary Scott Descent should clean house to
- 4:52Speaker 1: get his well politication of this office out. Here's something
- 4:57Speaker 1: else that was said. I'm not surprised he said those
- 5:01Speaker 1: far left things, because that's how this has operated, how
- 5:05Speaker 1: the Chief Council's Office has operated. The AID added, we
- 5:09Speaker 1: shouldn't trust left wing ideologues at the IRS and light
- 5:12Speaker 1: of their weaponization of the agency during the Obama and
- 5:15Speaker 1: also the Biden administrations. Now outside by the way of
- 5:19Speaker 1: social media. Sacho helped prepare link the academic article arguing
- 5:25Speaker 1: that prison should be abolished. It was published by the
- 5:29Speaker 1: Harvard Law Review and the forward. The primary author argued
- 5:33Speaker 1: that quote white supremacy is deeply woven into the fabric
- 5:36Speaker 1: of every legal institution in the United States of America. So,
- 5:40Speaker 1: in other words, if you're black, you should bild a
- 5:42Speaker 1: committee crime and not have to worry about the consequence,
- 5:44Speaker 1: apparently based on what the Harvard Law Review has In
- 5:47Speaker 1: a post discussing his work on the project, Sacho contemplated
- 5:51Speaker 1: the future of criminal justice in America by writing this,
- 5:54Speaker 1: it was truly amazing to work with Professor Roberts and
- 5:57Speaker 1: my fellow RAS on this piece over the past sum
- 6:00Speaker 1: It's not easy to imagine a society without prisons, but
- 6:04Speaker 1: I look at the prison system in mass incarceration completely
- 6:07Speaker 1: differently now after this experience. The author of the article
- 6:11Speaker 1: also wrote that there is quote good reason to renounce
- 6:15Speaker 1: the Constitution because constitutional law has been critical to upholding
- 6:20Speaker 1: the interests of the radical capitalist regime while advancing legal
- 6:25Speaker 1: theories that justifies it's inhumanity. The article that he was
- 6:30Speaker 1: a part of also said this, Indeed, it is the
- 6:34Speaker 1: realization the white supremacy is deeply woven into the fabric
- 6:38Speaker 1: of every legal institution in the United States and upheld
- 6:41Speaker 1: by the US constitutional law that made me an abolitionist
- 6:46Speaker 1: in the first place, the author added. SAKO, by the way,
- 6:50Speaker 1: also frequently posts anti police messages on his account, including
- 6:55Speaker 1: a call for the Colin Kaepernick Neil guy. Remember that guy,
- 6:59Speaker 1: Colin can the quarterback that Neil did in the National anthem?
- 7:02Speaker 1: Yeah that guy to quote abolish the white supremacist institution
- 7:07Speaker 1: of policing, and another post that claimed policing is based
- 7:10Speaker 1: on race and that the job itself is racist if
- 7:14Speaker 1: you are a policeman, So how does that work? Just
- 7:16Speaker 1: out of curiosity if you're like Asian or Hispanic or black, Like,
- 7:19Speaker 1: are you a racist cop if you were those races?
- 7:22Speaker 2: Like, I'm just asking for a friend.
- 7:24Speaker 1: I want to know socco's account, by the way, now, Locke,
- 7:28Speaker 1: because this is what the left does, right, They get
- 7:30Speaker 1: caught saying what they believe, and then they shut it down.
- 7:33Speaker 1: They don't stand by it. No, no, no, we're gonna We're
- 7:35Speaker 1: gonna lock it down. And satsy's currently focused on tax policy,
- 7:40Speaker 1: racial and criminal justice. The IRS, by the way, is
- 7:43Speaker 1: not respond to requests for comment on soaco's status at
- 7:46Speaker 1: the end of at the agency, and this goes back
- 7:49Speaker 1: to the point that I said earlier in twenty sixteen.
- 7:52Speaker 1: I don't think Donald Trump understood just how many people
- 7:55Speaker 1: hated him. I don't think he realized how much the
- 8:00Speaker 1: deep state had dug into our government. This guy's a
- 8:03Speaker 1: great example of that. And how many people are like, oh,
- 8:06Speaker 1: we can just undermine Donald Trump anytime we want to, Like,
- 8:09Speaker 1: we don't have to worry about Donald Trump. We will
- 8:13Speaker 1: just wait him out. We'll undermine every single thing that
- 8:19Speaker 1: he does. And when we do that, then we will
- 8:22Speaker 1: still win eventually, because we're not going anywhere. That, my friends,
- 8:27Speaker 1: is the problem with all of this. You have these
- 8:31Speaker 1: radicals that are in our government, these extremists in our government,
- 8:36Speaker 1: and they say these things openly. I want you to
- 8:38Speaker 1: just think about the arrogance of this top person. You
- 8:42Speaker 1: have an individual here that is so arrogant, that is
- 8:46Speaker 1: so cocky that he's willing to write this down and
- 8:53Speaker 1: put it online for anyone to read it for years.
- 8:57Speaker 1: But as soon as he gets caught by the masses,
- 9:00Speaker 1: he felt let me let me rephrase that he felt
- 9:03Speaker 1: comfortable enough to write it, He felt comfortable enough to
- 9:10Speaker 1: put it out there, thinking that he could claim he's
- 9:13Speaker 1: some nonpartisan irs agent when in reality, he hates conservatives.
- 9:18Speaker 1: He's an extreme radical, a hardcore leftist at an organization
- 9:24Speaker 1: that has been weaponized to go after conservatives. When I
- 9:30Speaker 1: tell you stories like this, I mean it. You don't
- 9:34Speaker 1: hate the left enough right now, because what I can
- 9:36Speaker 1: tell you is they hate you. They hate your family values,
- 9:40Speaker 1: they hate your faith, they hate who you vote for,
- 9:43Speaker 1: and they want to undermine it, and they want to
- 9:45Speaker 1: silence you. And they want you to become extinct. And oh,
- 9:48Speaker 1: by the way, they also want you to be poor.
- 9:51Speaker 1: They don't want you to succeed, they won't want your
- 9:53Speaker 1: kids to succeed. They want to destroy your way of life.
- 9:56Speaker 1: Never ever, ever, forget that. Share this podcasts with your
- 10:01Speaker 1: family and friends, share it on social media, please, and
- 10:04Speaker 1: I'll see you back here tomorrow. Promises made, Promises kept.
- 10:11Speaker 1: That for me is the theme of Donald Trump's time
- 10:15Speaker 1: in office so far. The Trump administration, we're now being told,
- 10:19Speaker 1: is on pace to deport four hundred thousand illegal immigrants
- 10:25Speaker 1: in one year. The Trump administration is deporting about one
- 10:31Speaker 1: thousand and five hundred people per day and is on
- 10:34Speaker 1: track to deport more than four and one thousand people
- 10:36Speaker 1: in his first year in office. The New York Times
- 10:39Speaker 1: is now reporting now. Of course they're criticizing the president
- 10:41Speaker 1: for doing it. That's how you know the president's doing
- 10:43Speaker 1: a damn good job. At least one hundred and eighty
- 10:46Speaker 1: thousand people have been deported by Immigrations and Customs Enforcement
- 10:51Speaker 1: under President Donald Trump. The Time states deportations have increased
- 10:57Speaker 1: as ICE got a massive increase in funding from the
- 11:00Speaker 1: big beautiful bill that was signed into law. Again, the
- 11:03Speaker 1: bill that they said was going to ruin America. So
- 11:05Speaker 1: much for that lie. At its current pace, ICE would
- 11:10Speaker 1: deport more than four hundred thousand people. That is a
- 11:14Speaker 1: sharp increase from the two hundred and seventy one thousand
- 11:17Speaker 1: people removed last year by ICE, though far short of
- 11:20Speaker 1: the goal of one hundred or of one million set
- 11:24Speaker 1: by the Trump administration. Now, the Department of All Insecurity
- 11:28Speaker 1: says the total number of deportations so far under Trump
- 11:32Speaker 1: is three hundred and twenty two thousand. That figure includes
- 11:36Speaker 1: people who are turned around or quickly deported at the
- 11:39Speaker 1: US borders by Customs and Border Protection. The Times also
- 11:43Speaker 1: states ICE is using a dozen charter planes per day.
- 11:49Speaker 1: If that's not taxpayer money used the right way, I
- 11:51Speaker 1: don't know. What is to conduct deportations and transport detainees.
- 11:56Speaker 1: That's double the number used in January. According to Tom Cartwright,
- 12:00Speaker 1: an immigration advocate who is tracking the ICE flights, yes
- 12:06Speaker 1: they're angry. There are more than sixty thousand people in custody.
- 12:10Speaker 1: The Times reported ICE is at at least fifty new
- 12:14Speaker 1: detention centers since Trump took office as well, and more
- 12:18Speaker 1: than six thousand people being held there. The White House
- 12:22Speaker 1: for months has emphasized the administration's broader strategy on immigration
- 12:26Speaker 1: as the deportation tally has ticked upward. Through its Project
- 12:31Speaker 1: Homecoming initiative announce in May, the administration has offered financial
- 12:37Speaker 1: incentives and streamlined processes to encourage voluntary departures, with aggressive
- 12:45Speaker 1: enforcement measures for those who remain. That according to a
- 12:49Speaker 1: White House fact sheet that was put out in public messaging,
- 12:53Speaker 1: officials have described the deportation campaign as historic, an aggressive
- 12:58Speaker 1: effort highlight record breaking numbers of arrests and expanded capacity
- 13:03Speaker 1: for detaining and removing undocumented immigrants. So here we are,
- 13:10Speaker 1: the President the United States of America, promising to clean
- 13:13Speaker 1: up the immigration problem in this country. And what we're
- 13:17Speaker 1: witnessing right now is that Trump administration is on pace
- 13:20Speaker 1: to deport more than four hundred thousand people in year one.
- 13:24Speaker 1: This is also happening as liberals are fighting every time
- 13:29Speaker 1: they get a chance to stop the President and Ice
- 13:33Speaker 1: from doing their jobs. Could the numbers go up yes?
- 13:37Speaker 1: Could they go even higher next year?
- 13:39Speaker 2: Yes?
- 13:40Speaker 1: One thing is for sure. The President is sending a
- 13:43Speaker 1: message that while he's in office, well what happened under
- 13:47Speaker 1: Joe Biden will never happen again. He wants to fix
- 13:51Speaker 1: the rate you're allowed to charge for rent. He wants
- 13:54Speaker 1: to again take companies and take away money from wealthy individuals.
- 14:00Speaker 1: He wants to run off the quote millionaires and billionaires. So,
- 14:06Speaker 1: I mean, I really don't know any other way to
- 14:09Speaker 1: put it. Is just we're gonna we're robin hooding. We're
- 14:11Speaker 1: gonna go after the poor or go after the rich,
- 14:16Speaker 1: I say, and give to the poor. Well, if you
- 14:18Speaker 1: pass it locally, and this is the part that's scary.
- 14:20Speaker 1: If you do a local ordinance, for example, when it's
- 14:23Speaker 1: local and the people vote for you and they agree
- 14:26Speaker 1: with it, it's gonna be extremely hard to say, uh no, right,
- 14:33Speaker 1: like this is it. Can you tax people at high rate?
- 14:37Speaker 2: Yes? Can you do rent control? Yes, you can.
- 14:40Speaker 1: There's a lot of local governments have a lot of
- 14:42Speaker 1: power to do things like this. So yeah, a lot
- 14:46Speaker 1: of what he's saying I don't think is illegal as
- 14:48Speaker 1: long as they pass it the right way. That and
- 14:51Speaker 1: and look, I also go back to what I said
- 14:54Speaker 1: earlier on crime. In all these cities. One of the
- 14:58Speaker 1: things democrats do is they decide that the easiest way
- 15:04Speaker 1: to continue to hold power is to get rid of
- 15:07Speaker 1: their political adversaries, to get rid of their political enemies.
- 15:13Speaker 1: And the reason why they get rid of their adversaries
- 15:15Speaker 1: and their enemies is actually pretty simple. They do it
- 15:18Speaker 1: because then no one's up against them. If all the
- 15:21Speaker 1: people that vote against you don't stay and fight you,
- 15:24Speaker 1: they just leave and disappear. And that's what they seem
- 15:28Speaker 1: to be doing often in these liberal cities. Like how
- 15:31Speaker 1: many parents want their kid in a failing school in
- 15:34Speaker 1: a high crime neighborhood. We can be killed just by
- 15:36Speaker 1: being outside playing, or you can get shot by a
- 15:38Speaker 1: stray bullet sleeping in your bed.
- 15:40Speaker 2: Like there's a lot of people, like a lot of people.
- 15:43Speaker 1: Okay, there is a lot of people that as soon
- 15:48Speaker 1: as that they have the means to get out, they're
- 15:49Speaker 1: gonna get out. They're gonna get out as fast as
- 15:51Speaker 1: they can, and they're like, we don't care if you move,
- 15:53Speaker 1: that's just one last person that's going to be voting
- 15:55Speaker 1: against me, that's going to be advocating for policies that
- 15:59Speaker 1: I don't like. I don't think these guys care if
- 16:03Speaker 1: everyone runs away. It's what they want to happen, and
- 16:09Speaker 1: it's part of I think their game plan moving forward
- 16:13Speaker 1: is that we will we will eliminate any of our
- 16:16Speaker 1: political threats. We will eliminate the people with money, will
- 16:20Speaker 1: eliminate the people that are that are out there that
- 16:23Speaker 1: we can't stand, so that we control power. It's easier
- 16:27Speaker 1: now than ever for a liberal Democrat with no resume okay,
- 16:32Speaker 1: to get elected. It is easier now than it's ever
- 16:36Speaker 1: been in these hardcore leftist, high crime, high poverty cities
- 16:40Speaker 1: because the same voters got out, they're getting out as
- 16:44Speaker 1: soon as they have the financial means to do it.
- 16:47Speaker 1: They run out of these cities. Why do you think
- 16:51Speaker 1: so many of these liberal cities have suburbs that are
- 16:53Speaker 1: extremely safe and extremely conservative, because when you have the means,
- 16:58Speaker 1: you say, I'm out of here, I'm out of the
- 17:00Speaker 1: crime I'm out of the poverty. I'm out of these liberals.
- 17:03Speaker 2: I'm out.
- 17:04Speaker 1: I'm done, I'm moving, I'm running, I'm gone. Goodbye. It's
- 17:09Speaker 1: a self fulfilling prophecy. But Democrats don't want to rule
- 17:12Speaker 1: great cities. They want to dictate to disaster cities. Detroit, Baltimore,
- 17:18Speaker 1: New Orleans, Memphis, DC. The list goes on. What do
- 17:21Speaker 1: they all have in common? They have total control of
- 17:25Speaker 1: the local government, and that's what they're there for. They're
- 17:28Speaker 1: there for the control. Donald Trump treating police and the
- 17:33Speaker 1: National Guard to dinner while thanking them for the DC
- 17:38Speaker 1: crime cleanup. President Trump doing what Trump does, bringing pizza
- 17:43Speaker 1: and Hamburgers for members of law enforcement the National Guard
- 17:46Speaker 1: on Thursday and saying thank you for cracking down on
- 17:50Speaker 1: crime and keeping Americans safe. Trump a company the Attorney
- 17:53Speaker 1: General Pam Bondi, and the Interior Secretary Doug Bergham. He
- 17:57Speaker 1: met with law enforcement from various ages, ranging from the
- 18:01Speaker 1: US Marshall Service to the DC Metropolitan Police Department at
- 18:05Speaker 1: the United States Park Police Headquarters. According to the White
- 18:08Speaker 1: House Press Pool reports, We're now seeing. Trump commented on
- 18:13Speaker 1: just how amazing the officers are for doing what he
- 18:16Speaker 1: said was an amazing job since he took federal control
- 18:20Speaker 1: of the city due to out of control crime. The
- 18:23Speaker 1: President also making it clear to law enforcement, saying this,
- 18:28Speaker 1: I just want to thank everybody very much for being here.
- 18:32Speaker 1: We've had some incredible results. It's like a different place.
- 18:36Speaker 1: It's like a different city. It's the capital. It's going
- 18:40Speaker 1: to be the best in the world.
- 18:43Speaker 2: He said.
- 18:43Speaker 1: We appreciate you. And the numbers are down like we
- 18:46Speaker 1: wouldn't believe, but we believe it. He said, We've had
- 18:50Speaker 1: some incredible results. It's like a different place. The Vice
- 18:54Speaker 1: President J. D. Vans also noted there has been a
- 18:57Speaker 1: thirty five percent drop in violent crime and a fifty
- 19:00Speaker 1: percent drop in robberies in the first nine days since
- 19:03Speaker 1: Trump took federal control of law enforcement. Trump Offa also
- 19:07Speaker 1: emphasized his efforts to restore DC to greatness will not
- 19:11Speaker 1: end with a crime crackdown. He will seek money from
- 19:14Speaker 1: Congress to spruce up the city. He said, quote, We're
- 19:18Speaker 1: going to do what we're doing with law enforcement, and
- 19:21Speaker 1: very importantly also we're going to physically do it. We're
- 19:24Speaker 1: going back to Congress for some money, and we're going
- 19:27Speaker 1: to redo a lot of the pavement a lot of
- 19:29Speaker 1: the medians, a lot of the graffiti all coming off
- 19:33Speaker 1: real fast. We're going to be not so much building.
- 19:38Speaker 1: It's going to be cleaning and fixing and redoing and
- 19:41Speaker 1: putting brand new services down on our roads and our streets,
- 19:44Speaker 1: he added. Trump brought White House burgers and pizza from
- 19:48Speaker 1: a quote undisclosed business for the members of law enforcement
- 19:53Speaker 1: in attendance. He said, we'll eat, and I'll eat with you.
- 19:57Speaker 1: We're going to have a little fun. We're going to celebrate,
- 20:00Speaker 1: but then we're going to get back to work, and
- 20:02Speaker 1: we're going to take care of these criminals. We're going
- 20:04Speaker 1: to put them where they have to be. Bergham also
- 20:09Speaker 1: celebrating the President, saying, quote, thank you for bringing respect
- 20:13Speaker 1: back to law enforcement professionals. Bondy committed law enforcement officers
- 20:18Speaker 1: for working midnights every night because they love our country,
- 20:22Speaker 1: they love our city, and the President. Trump then returned
- 20:26Speaker 1: to the White House after praising law enforcement, something that
- 20:29Speaker 1: Democrats apparently could never ever bring themselves to actually do.
- 20:34Speaker 1: Why Because they hate police, they hate law and order.
- 20:37Speaker 1: They love the criminals, the drug dealers, the gang bangers,
- 20:40Speaker 1: the illegal immigrants. And if you want to know why
- 20:44Speaker 1: this country is in such a mess. Look get any
- 20:47Speaker 1: democratic city in America and if you want to know
- 20:49Speaker 1: why so many cities that are safe have conservative leaders,
- 20:53Speaker 1: well imagine if Donald Trump got to do this in
- 20:55Speaker 1: other major cities as well well. And this is the
- 20:59Speaker 1: reason why I think think these numbers are just so important,
- 21:03Speaker 1: that they are just so important because they prove what
- 21:10Speaker 1: we've been saying for a long time, right, Like they
- 21:14Speaker 1: prove that law and order when put in action, can
- 21:19Speaker 1: have a massive impact, not in six months, not in
- 21:21Speaker 1: a year, not in three years, but now immediately when
- 21:25Speaker 1: it's done and surge the right way. I think this
- 21:28Speaker 1: is going to be extremely hard for now governors and
- 21:31Speaker 1: mayors to look at their citizens and say I care
- 21:34Speaker 1: more about politics and I care about saving your life
- 21:37Speaker 1: for the lives of your loved ones or this city.
- 21:40Speaker 1: Like that's our newest problem, that's our biggest problem. It's
- 21:44Speaker 1: the scariest part of all with this, it's the worst
- 21:47Speaker 1: part of it is that this is happening. I go
- 21:50Speaker 1: back to another story that actually was really interesting, and
- 21:55Speaker 1: it was one that was up earlier today and they
- 21:58Speaker 1: were trying to use it like it was a that
- 22:00Speaker 1: was negative and it's that Donald Trump is apparently preparing
- 22:05Speaker 1: in a very quiet but a very real way to
- 22:07Speaker 1: use the military to go after terrorist organizations that have
- 22:11Speaker 1: been i should say, cartels that have been designated as
- 22:17Speaker 1: terrorists organizations. And there was like this woke liberal that
- 22:22Speaker 1: like was freaking out over this, acting like he was
- 22:25Speaker 1: like exposing Donald Trump, and it made me laugh. I'm
- 22:30Speaker 1: going to talk about it coming up because it really did.
- 22:32Speaker 1: It made me laugh. It was funny. I'm like, this
- 22:36Speaker 1: is good news. This isn't bad news, this is great news.
- 22:42Speaker 1: I want to talk to you about my friends over
- 22:43Speaker 1: at Patriot Mobile. You've got a lot of choices for
- 22:46Speaker 1: cell phone service, with new ones popping up all the time.
- 22:50Speaker 1: But if you want to make a difference and you
- 22:52Speaker 1: want to stop giving your money to liberal companies, well
- 22:56Speaker 1: one way you can do that is by getting rid
- 22:58Speaker 1: of Liberal Mobile you probably have right now. That is
- 23:02Speaker 1: where hundreds of thousands of Americans are now coming together
- 23:05Speaker 1: and have made Patriot Mobile what they are today. They've
- 23:08Speaker 1: been in service now for thirteen years, and right now
- 23:12Speaker 1: is the best time ever to switch because it's never
- 23:15Speaker 1: been easier. Now, before I tell you about that, I
- 23:18Speaker 1: want you to know why switching is so important because
- 23:21Speaker 1: every time you make a call, every time you send
- 23:23Speaker 1: a text, and every time that you pay your bill,
- 23:26Speaker 1: you're actually standing up for the values you believe in.
- 23:28Speaker 1: Your First and your Second Amendment rights, the rights of
- 23:31Speaker 1: unborn children, and you stand with our military, our veterans,
- 23:35Speaker 1: our wounded warriors, and our fallen soldier families. Because Patriot
- 23:38Speaker 1: Mobile takes about five percent of your bill every month
- 23:41Speaker 1: at no extra cost to you, and they give it
- 23:44Speaker 1: back to these organizations that fight for our values. Now,
- 23:48Speaker 1: let's talk about switching. It has never been easier. You
- 23:50Speaker 1: can keep your same number, keep your saying phone, or upgrade.
- 23:54Speaker 1: Patriot Mobile's got a one hundred percent US based customer
- 23:57Speaker 1: service team and literally they can now with technology, get
- 24:00Speaker 1: you activated in minutes from the comfort your home or
- 24:03Speaker 1: your office. You're second contract or owe money on your phones,
- 24:07Speaker 1: no worries. Patriot Mobile has a contract buyout program. And
- 24:11Speaker 1: this is how we win, folks, by aligning our spinning
- 24:15Speaker 1: with our values. Every dollar we spend matters. Now, let
- 24:18Speaker 1: me also give you a free month of service. Go
- 24:20Speaker 1: to Patriotmobile dot com slash ferguson. That's Patriot Mobile dot
- 24:27Speaker 1: com slash ferguson, or you can call them nine to
- 24:30Speaker 1: seven to two Patriot, use the promo code ferguson, and
- 24:34Speaker 1: you're gonna get one month free service by switching today.
- 24:38Speaker 1: So again, patriotmobile dot com slash ferguson, use the promo
- 24:41Speaker 1: code ferguson, You'll get a free month of service today
- 24:44Speaker 1: patriotmobile dot com slash ferguson or nine to seven to
- 24:47Speaker 1: two Patriot. I'm gonna read for you part of this
- 24:51Speaker 1: article just so you understand. Now again, Democrats actually believe
- 24:55Speaker 1: what I'm reading to you is like bad news, like
- 24:58Speaker 1: like damning news to Donald Trump and the Trump administration,
- 25:01Speaker 1: and I'm like, I'm jacked.
- 25:03Speaker 2: Quote.
- 25:04Speaker 1: The Trump administration has directed the military to prepare for
- 25:08Speaker 1: lethal strikes like We're going to kill them folks against
- 25:11Speaker 1: cartel targets inside of Mexico. Hell, yes, that's me. Three
- 25:16Speaker 1: military sources are telling us the top secret planning order
- 25:20Speaker 1: issued in late spring directs in Northern Command called NORTHCOMB
- 25:25Speaker 1: to manage the attack plans, which are to be ready
- 25:28Speaker 1: by mid September. Though US military US Mexico military relations
- 25:34Speaker 1: are broad and cooperative, any military action south of the
- 25:37Speaker 1: border is considered extremely sensitive for both Washington and the
- 25:40Speaker 1: Mexican federal government, and is rarely discussed in public.
- 25:45Speaker 2: Quote.
- 25:45Speaker 1: Not only has DONLD Trump uniquely focused on transnational criminal
- 25:49Speaker 1: organizations the official name for cartels, having designated them terrorists
- 25:54Speaker 1: in one of his first executive orders, but he has
- 25:56Speaker 1: shown himself to be willing to take unilateral action to
- 26:00Speaker 1: by potentially negative political ramification. I say ratifications, says one
- 26:06Speaker 1: senior intelligence official.
- 26:07Speaker 2: Again, like they're acting like this is bad news.
- 26:09Speaker 1: I'm like this amazing, Like this is what I voted for,
- 26:12Speaker 1: Like direct line this into my veins. He and other
- 26:17Speaker 1: sources say the military action could be unilateral, that is,
- 26:20Speaker 1: without the involvement or approval of the Mexican government. Well,
- 26:23Speaker 1: hell yeah, because the Mexican government's totally corrupted by the cartels.
- 26:27Speaker 1: Like the Mexican government is the cartel's bag men running
- 26:33Speaker 1: the country. Like, just understand that quote. The unprecedented order
- 26:39Speaker 1: was discussed at July meeting at Northcomb headquarters in Colorado Springs.
- 26:43Speaker 1: It was led by Colby Jenkins, the unconfirmed Assistant Secretary
- 26:47Speaker 1: of Defense for Special Operations and Low Intensity Conflict. Within days,
- 26:53Speaker 1: General Gregory Gullet, commander of Northcomb, hosted the two highest
- 26:58Speaker 1: ranking Mexican mil terry officials, and they're like, Wow, this
- 27:03Speaker 1: is a big deal, right, the Secretary of National Defense
- 27:05Speaker 1: and Admiral, a guy by the name of Angellis, the
- 27:10Speaker 1: Secretary of the Navy from Mexico quote today, more than
- 27:13Speaker 1: ever the challenges we face to man a joint, coordinated,
- 27:16Speaker 1: an adaptive response is what Morales, all right, the Secretary
- 27:21Speaker 1: of the Navy for Mexico said after the calorad A visit,
- 27:24Speaker 1: trying to impress upon Pentagon and military leaders let any
- 27:27Speaker 1: potential operation be conducted by the two nations together. Now
- 27:31Speaker 1: here's the problem. If you do it with Mexico. I
- 27:34Speaker 1: promise you any until you give them about where we're
- 27:37Speaker 1: going to hit, or what we're going to hit, or
- 27:38Speaker 1: who we're going after, will immediately be linked to the
- 27:42Speaker 1: cartel members, to these terrorist organizations. They want to work
- 27:47Speaker 1: with us because they want to warn the people that
- 27:49Speaker 1: give them their money and power that hey, you're about
- 27:52Speaker 1: to be exterminated. Back to the article. To address the
- 27:56Speaker 1: extreme political sensitivities and to honor Mexico's sovereignty, operations inside
- 28:01Speaker 1: Mexico have previously been conducted by the CIA and the
- 28:05Speaker 1: Joint Special Operations Command known as JAYSOCK. It's the clandestine
- 28:09Speaker 1: arm of the US military that has been involved in
- 28:11Speaker 1: targeting killings, targeted killings, I say, in the Middle East.
- 28:15Speaker 1: The New York Times has reported that the CIA has
- 28:17Speaker 1: increased reconnaissance operations over Mexico with its own drones. Other
- 28:22Speaker 1: indicators have increased preparations for operations. Now, why is this happening?
- 28:27Speaker 1: I can answer that question because the present's ordering it,
- 28:30Speaker 1: the President saying this is what we're doing. Northcom was
- 28:33Speaker 1: previously sidelined in any Mexico planning. The conventional Special Operations
- 28:38Speaker 1: component mostly involved in joint training with their Mexican counterparts
- 28:42Speaker 1: and non lethal missions which are meaningless such as at
- 28:45Speaker 1: see you know, interactions of shipments, they say. But now
- 28:50Speaker 1: it is being tasked to be the synchronizer of a
- 28:54Speaker 1: far larger magnitude operation and possible attack. That is what
- 29:00Speaker 1: senior intelligence officials are saying. Now, is anything I've told
- 29:03Speaker 1: you so far like sound bad to you? Or does
- 29:05Speaker 1: it all sound like amazing? Because for me this is incredible.
- 29:10Speaker 1: One reason is that perspective attacks, the article says, have
- 29:14Speaker 1: also also have to coordinate with the intelligence community at large.
- 29:19Speaker 1: The FBI, and various homeland security agencies such as Border
- 29:22Speaker 1: Patrol and ICE, who all now are focused on Mexico
- 29:26Speaker 1: and are conducting their own operations inside Mexico. NORTHCOM is
- 29:31Speaker 1: already involved in Mexico in a host of ways, including
- 29:33Speaker 1: and combating the cartels. That is what General Gilias said
- 29:39Speaker 1: alluded to in a recent testimony to Congress, where he
- 29:42Speaker 1: said that his cooperation with Mexico is already closer than
- 29:45Speaker 1: at any point in history. Okay, again, is there anything
- 29:50Speaker 1: that I've just told you that sounds like bad news?
- 29:51Speaker 1: Because they wrote this article like this is like Donald
- 29:54Speaker 1: Trump going rogue. I'm like, no, no, this is literally what
- 29:57Speaker 1: I voted for. I want to go to the testimony
- 30:00Speaker 1: for Congress. Okay, quote, it is already apparent to military
- 30:04Speaker 1: to military relationships, but the relationship between the United States
- 30:07Speaker 1: and Mexico is robust and expanding it both as both
- 30:10Speaker 1: nations address the challenges posed by common threats to our
- 30:13Speaker 1: citizens and shared interests. These bonds between US north COMB
- 30:17Speaker 1: and our Mexican military partners are broad, resilient, and focused
- 30:20Speaker 1: on expanding or combating capability combined I state capability to
- 30:24Speaker 1: defend and secure North America from the Madrid state and
- 30:28Speaker 1: nonstate threats. Countering competitor influence in the region remains a
- 30:33Speaker 1: key priority for US northcomm and our Mexican military partners,
- 30:37Speaker 1: and as a direct result, the US and Mexican militaries
- 30:41Speaker 1: are more operationally combative and compatible than at any point
- 30:45Speaker 1: in our shared history. Okay, so let's be clear about
- 30:49Speaker 1: what they're saying, these guys that are woke going up
- 30:53Speaker 1: there to Congress, like, Hey, you need to make sure
- 30:56Speaker 1: Mexico is involved in like everything we do, because if
- 30:58Speaker 1: we don't, they may find other allies. So in other words,
- 31:01Speaker 1: it's better to live in the hell we have now
- 31:03Speaker 1: where the cartels run the country than actually go after
- 31:06Speaker 1: the cartels and kill them. And we should do that
- 31:09Speaker 1: because their terrorist organization who is also killing Americans, Like,
- 31:13Speaker 1: make no mistake over it. And what they're saying is, well,
- 31:16Speaker 1: hold on a second that the other side, this is
- 31:20Speaker 1: we got to counter Chinese influence and investment in Mexico.
- 31:23Speaker 1: We got to thwart Russian influence and operations. We got
- 31:26Speaker 1: to stem the flow of drugs and the and the
- 31:29Speaker 1: chemicals and even weapons of mass destruction components that are
- 31:32Speaker 1: coming through Mexico. And the only way to do that,
- 31:34Speaker 1: they say, is if we just accept the corruption in
- 31:37Speaker 1: the cartels of Mexico. I would argue, screw you, Okay,
- 31:41Speaker 1: if Mexico wants to run to Russia, knock yourself out
- 31:45Speaker 1: and we'll knock out all the cartels and you'll lose
- 31:48Speaker 1: your power. You know, Chinese influence. Yes, that's real, But
- 31:53Speaker 1: I'd rather not have Americans dying at record numbers from
- 31:55Speaker 1: fetnyl overdoses. And that's coming where from China and then
- 31:59Speaker 1: through mex go into America. Now Northcom we've also been
- 32:04Speaker 1: told as tasks it's subordinate special Operations Command called SOCK
- 32:11Speaker 1: North to undertake quote operational preparations of the battle space
- 32:17Speaker 1: inside Mexico, set the stage for quote future military operations,
- 32:21Speaker 1: and to prepare cartel related targeting packages for potential strikes
- 32:26Speaker 1: and direct action attacks on the ground against high value individuals, compounds,
- 32:30Speaker 1: and supply chain targets associated in particular with the Cineloa
- 32:34Speaker 1: cartel and the new Generation cartel. Direct attacks could also
- 32:39Speaker 1: involve air and drone strikes like this. Again, they're acting
- 32:43Speaker 1: like this as bad news. This is what I voted
- 32:46Speaker 1: for quote direct actions. The term special operations forces used
- 32:51Speaker 1: to describe small scale offensive operations carried out by Army
- 32:55Speaker 1: green berets, Navy seals, or Marine Corps raiders. Think of
- 32:59Speaker 1: the air strikes on Iran this summer as kind of
- 33:01Speaker 1: a direct action against discrete targets, whether a strategic or
- 33:06Speaker 1: national purpose. That's exactly what Donald Trump is now advocating
- 33:10Speaker 1: for as well. The article says that this is there
- 33:14Speaker 1: is one major difference when it comes to Mexico. The
- 33:17Speaker 1: political sensitivity is involved, so they're.
- 33:19Speaker 2: Telling you don't do it.
- 33:21Speaker 1: Unlike Iran, Mexico is a rich country, which of course
- 33:25Speaker 1: borders the US and cooperates with it in countless ways.
- 33:29Speaker 1: I don't believe that's true, all right. I just want
- 33:32Speaker 1: to be clear about that. Mexico, by the way, is
- 33:34Speaker 1: not a rich country. It's a poor country. That's a lie.
- 33:36Speaker 1: Independence from America is a major issue domestically, not to
- 33:40Speaker 1: mention the large Mexican American population. So they're also saying
- 33:43Speaker 1: don't do it because there's Americans there and they may
- 33:45Speaker 1: turn on set Americans, and so therefore that's why you
- 33:47Speaker 1: shouldn't do the operations against the cartels. This report is
- 33:53Speaker 1: truly hysterical, to me because I read it and I'm like,
- 33:58Speaker 1: give me more of this every day, please, like give
- 34:02Speaker 1: me more of this each and every day. Okay, Like
- 34:05Speaker 1: I want this. It's what I voted for, Donald Trump,
- 34:12Speaker 1: securing this country and going after the cartels. You couldn't
- 34:16Speaker 1: say anything that would get me more excited than what
- 34:19Speaker 1: is in this report. And they're acting like this is
- 34:21Speaker 1: some sort of just horrible moment, horrible thing.
- 34:24Speaker 2: It is not.
- 34:26Speaker 1: It's the greatest thing I've ever heard, and I think
- 34:29Speaker 1: most Americans voted for this and support it. Make sure
- 34:33Speaker 1: you share this podcast with your family and friends, put
- 34:35Speaker 1: it up on social media wherever you are, and we
- 34:38Speaker 1: appreciate you listening every day. We'll see you back here tomorrow.
