Iranian DefMin Responds to Strike by Israel plus Sen. Marsha Blackburn on the 'Great Replacement' · The Ben Ferguson Podcast

• 0:01
  Speaker 1: Israel does defend itself with an extremely limited response. Other
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: analysts have described the news reports as propaganda ma in
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: comparison to official programming supporting the communist regime in the
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: former Soviet Union, saying that they just are trying to
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: make it look worse than it actually is. But the
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: world has clearly decided now this is a very limited response.
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: So what is the bigger threat in this country right now? Well,
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: our biggest concern should be the number of those that
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: have come across this southern border that are on the
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: terrorists watch lists. Terrorism seems to be gaining speed around
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: the world. Duran said two things. One is a lie.
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: This is their first lie that Iran said. The Defense
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: minister listen, how.
• 0:56
  Speaker 2: Thought our objective was warn as to send a clear
• 0:59
  Speaker 2: message to be received by the government of Israel and
• 1:02
  Speaker 2: to let it know that we do have the means
• 1:04
  Speaker 2: to respond. I will repeat again, we never seek the
• 1:09
  Speaker 2: expansion of chaos and warfare intentions in the region.
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: That's a lie. We know that they expand their tensions
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: in the region. We know that they were in charge
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: I'm killing American soldiers roadside bombs. We know they helped
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: train the attackers for the attack on the Israeli people
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: and the genocide that they created, and they shot three
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: hundred plus missiles at Israel just last week. They then say,
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: we don't want to do anything to escalate. That's a lie.
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: The Iranian foreign minister also saying this about what Israel
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: did this morning.
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: In case the Israeli regime embarks on adventurism again and
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: takes action against the interests of Iran, next response from
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: US will be immediate and at a maximum level.
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: So what they're saying is it sounds like they are
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: not going to respond to this retaliatory strike at the
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: hands of Israel. Now that that is good news because
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: we do all want this to de escalate. The question
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: is a Ran saying that now because they're afraid that
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: Israel will then strike their nuclear sites. I think that's
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: pretty clear. They're afraid that they can't defend themselves against
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: an attack by Israel. They just prove that Israel can
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: come in and go after them in a very big way.
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: So that is also I think another serious part of
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: their Okay, we're going to back down here, because they
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: realized that they could what they could lose and what
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: they could lose, could be a lot, all right. So
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: that's that's part number two of this that people need
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: to understand. There's also another part of this, and that
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: is anti Semitic attacks and rhetoric are at an all
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: time high right now. The American a d L excuse me,
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: Anti Definition League representative went on MSNBC this morning and
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: I played this for you, saying, in forty five years,
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: we've never seen anything like this, and it's happening mostly
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: starting on college campuses now. To also be clear, NBC
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: News is still keeping up their anti Israel rhetoric this morning.
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: I'll give you an example of that, Richard Haas saying
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: this on MSNBC about the Biden administration.
• 3:50
  Speaker 3: Listen, Richard has It was this just the latest final
• 3:56
  Speaker 3: round of shadow boxing between Israel and Iran, trying to
• 4:01
  Speaker 3: prove something to each other, to their constituencies, to regional
• 4:09
  Speaker 3: friends and enemies, or do you expect more?
• 4:12
  Speaker 4: I think we're all in violent or even nonviolent agreement
• 4:15
  Speaker 4: this morning.
• 4:16
  Speaker 5: This was carefully calibrated.
• 4:18
  Speaker 4: The Israelis felt compelled to respond to show that they
• 4:21
  Speaker 4: could reach Iran if need be, they could hurt them
• 4:24
  Speaker 4: if need be, but they didn't hurt them this time.
• 4:26
  Speaker 4: The fact that the Iranians are downplaying it at home
• 4:29
  Speaker 4: suggests to me they don't feel compelled to retaliate against
• 4:32
  Speaker 4: the retaliation. I think this showed the bb nets and Yahoo.
• 4:38
  Speaker 5: Were often critical.
• 4:39
  Speaker 4: I think in this case he resisted what he was
• 4:41
  Speaker 4: getting pressured to do from his right.
• 4:43
  Speaker 5: He did less rather than more.
• 4:45
  Speaker 4: I think the Biden administration should feel pretty good in
• 4:48
  Speaker 4: terms of calming down the reactions. And I think, excuse me,
• 4:53
  Speaker 4: this is also a realization on the Israelis.
• 4:54
  Speaker 5: They got their handsful, They've still.
• 4:56
  Speaker 4: Got the Gaza, and they'll make some big decisions about
• 5:01
  Speaker 4: Rafa and occupation they face. As the Atma was talking
• 5:05
  Speaker 4: about the massive threat from his bullet still and it.
• 5:09
  Speaker 5: Got active a few days ago.
• 5:10
  Speaker 4: It's possible the West Bank will get more militarized. They
• 5:14
  Speaker 4: got problems there. So I think this is really an
• 5:16
  Speaker 4: interesting case. You see it sometimes short during the Cold
• 5:19
  Speaker 4: War Joe, that adversaries figure out.
• 5:22
  Speaker 5: How to signal.
• 5:23
  Speaker 4: There's nothing formal, there's nothing explicit. But I think what
• 5:26
  Speaker 4: we saw here there's some actually sophisticated signaling and messaging
• 5:29
  Speaker 4: by Israel and Iran.
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: So the Biden administration this morning. Seems to be pretty
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: happy with this. They seem to be pretty happy with
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: what they're seeing. They seem to be pretty happy with
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: how this is going down. What we also know is
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: officials in Tehran initially played down the attack, first telling
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: Reuters that the explosions heard wire a result of the
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: activation of Iran's air defense system. They realized once the
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: pictures were leaking out of their country they couldn't stick
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: with that plan, so then they changed it. Then they
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: said that five hundred suicide drones and missiles were fired
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: at US, and that Israel was subjecting subjected to the
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: world's largest drone attack. That then didn't work out either,
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: because there weren't that many attacks. Israeli's military told the AFP,
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: we don't have a comment at this time. However, a
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: former Israeli Defense Forces spokesmans that Iran hadn't accurately assessed
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: the damage caused by the strike, Shet saying, quote, it
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: will take them time to work out what happened. We
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: also now know that the Department of Homeland Security knew
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: that Lake and Riley's accused killer had a criminal record.
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: We also now have been told that Department of Homeland
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: Security knew that they in fact gave a work permit
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: anyways to that individual so that that individual could stay
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: in America and work. And we also now know that
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: my orcis lied to Congress coming out overnight, claiming that
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: he had no derogatory information on the individual. President Joe
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: Biden's Department of Homeland Security approved a work permit for
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: Jose Antonio of Venezuela, who was accused of murdering the
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: twenty two year old Lacoln Riley, even after discovering he
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: had a prior criminal history. According to federal documents detailed
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: by Senator Josh Hawley, on February the twenty second, Lincoln
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: Riley went for a morning jog around the University of
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: Georgia campus in Athens. Riley Her body was bludgeon and
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: it was found later that day in a wooded area.
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: The following day, the illegal immigrant Jose Antonio was arrested
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: in charge with her murder. During a Senate budget hearing yesterday,
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: Holly read aloud the DHS file on the illegal immigrant,
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: which he said senators only recently obtained. According to documents
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: that Holly read, the individual was encountered but at the
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: United States Mexico border near El Paso, Texas on September
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: the eighth of twenty twenty two. DHS official sited detention capacity,
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: according to Holly, as the reason that he was rewarded parole.
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: You and I both know lack of detention capability capacity
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: is not a valid reason for parole under the statue,
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: Holly said to the Department of Home and Security Secretary
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: of MYORCIS, Immigration and Customs Enforcement known as ICE, status
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: shows about eighty one hundred available detention beds at the
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: time the individual was encountered at the border meeting. That
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: they lied. Okay, they lied. It's called gross negligence. MAJORCIS
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: says freeing lake in Riley's accused killer into the US
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: was warranted even after he was asked about the detention
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: center and that lie Biden's expansive catch and release network.
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: Senator Rand Paul noted purported to give parole to migrants
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: on a case by case basis for public benefit or
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: humanitarian reasons. Senator Paul asked my ORCIS if detention capabilities
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: and capacity is a reason migrants are given parole by
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: Biorcus said he would not comment on the case. Then
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: he said, well, why was this man paroled? Paul repeatedly asked,
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: my orcis. On July the nineteenth, the last year, Holly said,
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: the DHS file stated that the illegal immigrant reported to
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: agency officials in New York City for a biometric appointment
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: where he was fingerprinted. The results of those fingerprints, according
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: to the documents, showed that the illegal immigrant, had a
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: prior criminal history. Then, on September the fourteenth of twenty
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: twenty three, the illegal immigrant was arrested for acting in
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: a manner that could injure a child. This is in America.
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: Despite the charge, the man was not prosecuted and the
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: arrest was expunged from his record two months later, in
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: November of twenty twenty three, the Department of Home Security
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: file states that the illegal immigrant applied for an employment
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: authorization document known as an EAD with the US Citizenship
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: and Immigration Services on December the ninth, just days later,
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: Holly said. The DHS file states that the individual the
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: illegal immigrant, and the work permit application was then approved,
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: and less than three months after securing that work permit,
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: the man was charged with Lake and Riley's murder. I
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: want you to hear some of this back and forth
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: from Holly listen, Uh.
• 10:41
  Speaker 6: Mister Secretary, let's just come back to Jose Ibarra if
• 10:45
  Speaker 6: we can you know who that is. That's a question.
• 10:48
  Speaker 6: You know what he did.
• 10:51
  Speaker 7: I know what he's accused of doing, which is murdering
• 10:55
  Speaker 7: a young woman.
• 10:56
  Speaker 6: And that wasn't the first crime that he committed in
• 10:58
  Speaker 6: this country.
• 10:59
  Speaker 5: Was it?
• 11:01
  Speaker 7: Senator. As I've articulated previously, I'm not going to speak
• 11:04
  Speaker 7: about the facts of the case because there is an
• 11:06
  Speaker 7: ongoing criminal investigation.
• 11:08
  Speaker 6: Have you read his parole file?
• 11:11
  Speaker 7: Senator the same answer.
• 11:13
  Speaker 6: So you're not going to say whether or not you've
• 11:15
  Speaker 6: read the profile. I've got it right here. Have you
• 11:17
  Speaker 6: read this?
• 11:18
  Speaker 7: A Senator, I do not want to speak to the
• 11:20
  Speaker 7: particulars of the case given depending criminal in you.
• 11:24
  Speaker 6: I find this interesting because this is a new answer today.
• 11:27
  Speaker 6: You've changed your answers all over the map on this
• 11:30
  Speaker 6: and it looks like to me you just don't want
• 11:32
  Speaker 6: to answer the question. Two days ago, two days ago,
• 11:35
  Speaker 6: you were asked about this in the Househomeland Security Committee.
• 11:38
  Speaker 6: I've got the transcript right here in front of me.
• 11:40
  Speaker 6: You were asked the same question, Jose Ibara, why was
• 11:43
  Speaker 6: he paroled? You said, I don't know you said, I
• 11:46
  Speaker 6: don't know. I don't have the case details with me. Today,
• 11:50
  Speaker 6: Congressman Bishop says you don't know, and you said, I
• 11:53
  Speaker 6: don't know. I don't have the details with respect to
• 11:56
  Speaker 6: that individual's case, but I would be pleased to provide
• 11:58
  Speaker 6: them to you. Congressman, you didn't know two days ago. Now, interestingly,
• 12:03
  Speaker 6: on April the tenth, six days before that, you gave
• 12:07
  Speaker 6: Senator Katie Britt a different answer. She asked you the
• 12:10
  Speaker 6: same question. She said, why was Jose Iberra paroled into
• 12:15
  Speaker 6: the United States? You said, and I quote Ranking Member Britt,
• 12:20
  Speaker 6: there was no derogatory information of which we were aware,
• 12:24
  Speaker 6: so you were happy to comment on the case. Then
• 12:26
  Speaker 6: on April the tenth. By April the sixteenth, you had
• 12:29
  Speaker 6: developed amnesia. And today you say you just won't comment.
• 12:32
  Speaker 6: So which is it, mister Secretary. Now that we have
• 12:35
  Speaker 6: the file, I tell you what the difference is. Congressman
• 12:38
  Speaker 6: Bishop didn't have the profile and Senator Britt didn't have
• 12:41
  Speaker 6: the profile. And now we do have the parole file,
• 12:44
  Speaker 6: and now we all know that the reason he was
• 12:47
  Speaker 6: paroled into this country was because lack of detention capacity, which,
• 12:52
  Speaker 6: as you and I both know, is not a valid
• 12:55
  Speaker 6: reason under the statute. And now that we know that
• 12:57
  Speaker 6: for sure, this is right out of the parole file
• 13:00
  Speaker 6: here it is subject was paroled due to detention capacity
• 13:03
  Speaker 6: at the Central Processing Center in l Paso, Texas. Now
• 13:07
  Speaker 6: suddenly you don't want to talk about it. This is extraordinary.
• 13:11
  Speaker 6: It's also a pattern with you. So let me just
• 13:14
  Speaker 6: try one more time. Have you read the parole file?
• 13:16
  Speaker 7: Senator, I'm going to give the same answer, and let
• 13:19
  Speaker 7: me say it, well.
• 13:20
  Speaker 6: Which one are you going to give me the answer
• 13:21
  Speaker 6: you gave to Senator britt Are you going to give
• 13:23
  Speaker 6: the answer you gave to Congressman Bishop or the answer
• 13:25
  Speaker 6: you gave to Senator Paul Or do you want to
• 13:27
  Speaker 6: try a fourth one?
• 13:28
  Speaker 7: Senator, I will not speak to the particulars of the
• 13:30
  Speaker 7: case given the pending criminal process.
• 13:33
  Speaker 6: Oh, I'm sure, well you certainly, of course you don't
• 13:35
  Speaker 6: want to because it is an absolutely damning indictment of
• 13:39
  Speaker 6: your policies. Let's just review Jose Berrera and how Ibarra
• 13:43
  Speaker 6: rather and how he came to be here. On September
• 13:45
  Speaker 6: the eighth, twenty twenty two, he was encountered by the
• 13:47
  Speaker 6: United States Border Patrol in El Paso, Texas, and was
• 13:51
  Speaker 6: paroled into the United States due to lack of detention capacity.
• 13:55
  Speaker 6: A provision, a proviso, a rule that is not permitted
• 13:58
  Speaker 6: under the statute. You and I both no, you know this.
• 14:01
  Speaker 6: You knew it when you were talking to Congressman Bishop,
• 14:03
  Speaker 6: you knew it when you were testifying to Senator Britt,
• 14:06
  Speaker 6: and you know it today. You just never wanted to
• 14:09
  Speaker 6: cop to it because the statue doesn't permit it. And
• 14:11
  Speaker 6: so you lied to Congressman Bishop, and you lied to
• 14:14
  Speaker 6: Senator Britt. And now you are hiding behind the ongoing
• 14:17
  Speaker 6: prosecution excuse because it's the last one left to you,
• 14:20
  Speaker 6: because you testified falsely under oath. Then on July nineteenth,
• 14:25
  Speaker 6: twenty twenty three, Ebara reports for a biometric appointment and
• 14:28
  Speaker 6: was finger printed. This is now in New York. The
• 14:30
  Speaker 6: results come back and indicate he has a criminal history,
• 14:33
  Speaker 6: so he's in this country. He has a criminal history.
• 14:35
  Speaker 6: September fourteenth, he is arrested in New York by NYPD
• 14:39
  Speaker 6: for what injuring a child. September fourteenth, twenty twenty three,
• 14:43
  Speaker 6: he is arrested for injuring a child. What happens? The
• 14:47
  Speaker 6: offense was never prosecuted and the arrest was expunged. I'm
• 14:50
  Speaker 6: reading right out of the profile expunged. Nothing is done
• 14:53
  Speaker 6: to this guy. He had a criminal record to start with.
• 14:55
  Speaker 6: He's in the country on the illegal grounds. You have
• 14:58
  Speaker 6: falsely and illegally allowed him in. He commits a crime
• 15:00
  Speaker 6: against a child. He's not prosecuted, it's expunged. In November,
• 15:04
  Speaker 6: get this. In November it Borrow files an application for
• 15:08
  Speaker 6: employment authorization, and unbelievably, on December the ninth, twenty twenty three,
• 15:12
  Speaker 6: it's approved. So this is your policies in action, mister secretary.
• 15:17
  Speaker 6: A criminal is permitted into this country on grounds flatly
• 15:21
  Speaker 6: not permitted, flatly contradictory to the statute. He commits a
• 15:24
  Speaker 6: crime against a child, and then he gets a work permit.
• 15:27
  Speaker 6: He gets a work permit. You want to know why
• 15:29
  Speaker 6: all of the jobs in the last two or three
• 15:31
  Speaker 6: years have gone to illegal migrants. Working people in this
• 15:35
  Speaker 6: country can't get a job, their unemployment rates high white
• 15:38
  Speaker 6: because of things like this. And then what's he did?
• 15:40
  Speaker 6: Well we all know. Then in February he commits the
• 15:42
  Speaker 6: heinous crime against Laken Riley. Is this a record that
• 15:47
  Speaker 6: you are proud of, Senator?
• 15:52
  Speaker 7: You've mistated some facts.
• 15:54
  Speaker 6: I have read from the parole file, which you have
• 15:57
  Speaker 6: said you don't recall, don't have you mis cited. I'm
• 16:01
  Speaker 6: reading from it. It is right here, and I've just
• 16:05
  Speaker 6: pursued to the speech and debate clause. I have just
• 16:08
  Speaker 6: read it into the record. And the reason is you
• 16:11
  Speaker 6: have lied repeatedly to Congress and to the American people
• 16:16
  Speaker 6: about this. They deserve to know, and the only way
• 16:18
  Speaker 6: they're going to know is if I tell them. I've
• 16:20
  Speaker 6: just told them. It's in the record now. I've read
• 16:22
  Speaker 6: it verbatim from the profile verbatim. I just want to
• 16:27
  Speaker 6: know why did you change your story so often? Why
• 16:29
  Speaker 6: didn't you just answer honestly to Congressman Bishop and Senator
• 16:32
  Speaker 6: Brett Senator.
• 16:33
  Speaker 7: I am confident that justice will be vindicated in the
• 16:37
  Speaker 7: criminal prosecution of the case.
• 16:39
  Speaker 6: Well, hopefully he'll get more of a trial than you got.
• 16:42
  Speaker 6: Otherwise there'll be no justice for anyone at all. Let
• 16:45
  Speaker 6: me ask you something else. Travis Wolf, do you know
• 16:48
  Speaker 6: that name?
• 16:50
  Speaker 7: Not off the top of my head.
• 16:51
  Speaker 6: Travis Wolf is a twelve year old boy from Missouri.
• 16:55
  Speaker 6: This is him. Travis was killed on December twenty, twenty
• 17:00
  Speaker 6: twenty three year. I should say he was in a
• 17:03
  Speaker 6: tragic attack on that night. He died some weeks later
• 17:06
  Speaker 6: head on collision. The person driving the vehicle, who's now
• 17:10
  Speaker 6: been charged with six criminal counts, is in Drina, Braco.
• 17:14
  Speaker 6: Do you know who that is?
• 17:16
  Speaker 7: I do not, but let me communicate that I know
• 17:21
  Speaker 7: that all of our hearts break for the family of
• 17:24
  Speaker 7: this young boy who died in that accident.
• 17:27
  Speaker 6: Well, she's an illegal migrant here from Venezuela. Local law
• 17:33
  Speaker 6: enforcement tell me that she was detained briefly at the
• 17:36
  Speaker 6: border in twenty twenty three and then released, and then
• 17:40
  Speaker 6: she commits this crime. Multiple people have been stabbed in O'Fallon,
• 17:44
  Speaker 6: Missouri by illegal migrants. As a secretary, I know that
• 17:48
  Speaker 6: you think your policies are a success. You've sat right
• 17:50
  Speaker 6: there in that chair and you've told me over and
• 17:52
  Speaker 6: over our policies are working. You're on the record years
• 17:54
  Speaker 6: and years saying that maybe they're working for you, maybe
• 17:57
  Speaker 6: they're working for your political objectives, whatever they may be.
• 18:00
  Speaker 6: I don't know, but they're not working for Laken Riley
• 18:02
  Speaker 6: or Travis Woolf or the people of my state.
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: Democrats laughing in the face of Americans. After my Orchis
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: was able to get away with not following the American
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: laws when it comes to southern border. He's also an
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: individual that lied to the American people. Just one year ago.
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: He said the border is secure. The border is secure.
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: That is what he said when talking to Congress about
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: a wide open border that he admits now, well, there's
• 18:28
  Speaker 1: major problems and isn't secure. So how did he get
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: away with it? And how were they able to cut
• 18:34
  Speaker 1: this trial to just a single day? Join me now
• 18:37
  Speaker 1: to talk about this. It wasn't even a trial. Actually,
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: it was just like they could even get to a trial.
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: Join me now to talk about this. As US cenator
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: from Tennessee. Marsha Blackburn sentator, always a pleasure to chat
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: with you. This seems like a very big defeat for conservatives.
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: There's a lot of frustration from conservatives right now because
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: they feel like we're losing all over the place. We
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: have infighting on the House, a real prospect of losing
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: another speaker. Then we have the Maiorci's impeachment that doesn't
• 19:03
  Speaker 1: go anywhere. Explain how this happened yesterday and what people
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: need to know.
• 19:08
  Speaker 8: Yes, Chuck Schumer did as we assembled and were sworn
• 19:15
  Speaker 8: in into a Court of Impeachment. He made a point
• 19:19
  Speaker 8: of order and then deemed that Article one was unconstitutional
• 19:27
  Speaker 8: and did not meet the threshold for removal of may Orcus,
• 19:33
  Speaker 8: and every single Democrat voted with him. Now, we sent
• 19:38
  Speaker 8: a lot of time, about three hours trying to refute
• 19:45
  Speaker 8: this and make our points of order, and then following
• 19:49
  Speaker 8: the closure, we made certain that we went to the
• 19:55
  Speaker 8: floor and spent another few hours laying out for may
• 19:59
  Speaker 8: Orcus had done. But this has what Chuck Schumer did
• 20:04
  Speaker 8: yesterday has never been done. Twenty one impeachments. In four
• 20:09
  Speaker 8: of them the individual either died or resigned. And in
• 20:14
  Speaker 8: seventeen when the impeachment by the House went to the
• 20:18
  Speaker 8: Senate for trials, the trial was held. And so Senators
• 20:22
  Speaker 8: Lee and Kennedy had organizing resolutions that mirrored the Trump
• 20:28
  Speaker 8: one and Trump two impeachments. Senator Cruz had won that
• 20:33
  Speaker 8: a motion that would have formed a trial committee, but
• 20:38
  Speaker 8: Chuck Schumer would have none of it, and so Patty
• 20:43
  Speaker 8: Murray was the presiding officer and repeatedly we were just
• 20:49
  Speaker 8: we were shut out of trying to move to a trial.
• 20:53
  Speaker 8: And for the first time ever, they dismissed the impeachment
• 20:59
  Speaker 8: articles and to the American people. But then I will
• 21:02
  Speaker 8: tell you this. These Democrats that are up for reelection
• 21:07
  Speaker 8: this year, and they have very tough, close races, and
• 21:11
  Speaker 8: you're looking at New Mexico, Nevada, Montana, Ohio, Wisconsin, Michigan, Pennsylvania,
• 21:21
  Speaker 8: these and the race in Maryland, the race in West Virginia.
• 21:27
  Speaker 8: Democrats are going to have to answer for that because
• 21:30
  Speaker 8: it was unprecedented. It plays into that two tiers of justice.
• 21:34
  Speaker 8: If they keep pushing. There's one tier for the Democrats
• 21:38
  Speaker 8: in the elite. There's a different tier if your name
• 21:42
  Speaker 8: is Trump, or if you're a Republican or a Conservative.
• 21:45
  Speaker 8: And people are sick and tired of this.
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: Harry Reid said something that was very interesting that I
• 21:50
  Speaker 1: do think should be used and I hope every Republican
• 21:52
  Speaker 1: running for office in the Senate uses it especially, And
• 21:57
  Speaker 1: he said about this impeachment, we're going to get through
• 22:00
  Speaker 1: this quick. We're gonna move quickly to move past this.
• 22:04
  Speaker 1: He also made a admission, and it was an important one.
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: He said that you should never have someone impeached over
• 22:14
  Speaker 1: a policy disagreement. Now what that means is he's admitting
• 22:18
  Speaker 1: that the policy of the Democratic Party of the Biden
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: administration is to have wide open southern borders and to
• 22:24
  Speaker 1: allow as many illegal immigrants into this country as possible.
• 22:27
  Speaker 1: That's the first time that he's ever admitted that publicly,
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: and it was very very clear. He was saying, this
• 22:34
  Speaker 1: is just a policy disagreement. Now they haven't said that
• 22:39
  Speaker 1: before publicly. We knew it was their policy of the
• 22:41
  Speaker 1: Biden administration to get rid of all the executive orders
• 22:44
  Speaker 1: that secured our border. That was very clear, and Harry
• 22:48
  Speaker 1: Reid was like acting like, oh no, this is just
• 22:50
  Speaker 1: no big deal. This is just this is you know,
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: just a normal day. You know, we just have a
• 22:58
  Speaker 1: simple policy disagreement. Well, now we know they're admitting this
• 23:03
  Speaker 1: is their policy chaos of the southern border.
• 23:05
  Speaker 8: And they've been very clear and very intentional. And when
• 23:09
  Speaker 8: I was with some of our Senate conservatives last night
• 23:13
  Speaker 8: on the floor, I talked a little bit about the
• 23:17
  Speaker 8: intentionality that they have used in opening this southern border.
• 23:22
  Speaker 8: We do exactly what they're doing. These big boo states
• 23:27
  Speaker 8: have lost population. That affects the amount of money you
• 23:31
  Speaker 8: get from the federal government. It effects your congressional seats,
• 23:35
  Speaker 8: that effects the electoral college. So they are quickly moving
• 23:40
  Speaker 8: the people into these areas. Why do you think the
• 23:44
  Speaker 8: California is saying, hey, illegal aliens, come here, we will
• 23:49
  Speaker 8: give you free health care. It is because California laws
• 23:54
  Speaker 8: seven hundred and seventy thousand people last year. That is
• 23:59
  Speaker 8: just shy of the eight hundred and fifty thousand people
• 24:03
  Speaker 8: that make up a congressional district. California has already lost
• 24:08
  Speaker 8: a couple of congressional seats, so you know, we know
• 24:12
  Speaker 8: what they're doing. We also are akin to the fact
• 24:17
  Speaker 8: that some areas will allow those illegally in the country
• 24:21
  Speaker 8: to get a driver's license, and we're concerned about they're
• 24:24
  Speaker 8: having the ability to vote in those voter registrations, and
• 24:29
  Speaker 8: we're looking at what we can do to be sure
• 24:34
  Speaker 8: that that they are not voting in those federal elections,
• 24:40
  Speaker 8: the presidential elections.
• 24:43
  Speaker 1: I may have said the word Harry read earlier I
• 24:44
  Speaker 1: met Chuck Schumer. I want people to hear what Chuck
• 24:46
  Speaker 1: Schumer had to say in his own words at this
• 24:48
  Speaker 1: breast conference.
• 24:49
  Speaker 7: If your palage so.
• 24:50
  Speaker 5: You're going to offer emotion to dismiss Themitaris on Thursday,
• 24:54
  Speaker 5: were you all concerned to sign the Democrats and to
• 24:57
  Speaker 5: races that come back to talk of Andrew.
• 25:00
  Speaker 7: Look, we're going to try and resolve this issue as
• 25:02
  Speaker 7: quickly as possible. Impeachment should never be used to settle
• 25:07
  Speaker 7: policy disagreements.
• 25:09
  Speaker 1: Should never be used to settle policy disagreements. So if
• 25:14
  Speaker 1: Republicans use it the right way, what you're basically saying is, yes,
• 25:18
  Speaker 1: this was a big victory for Democrats yesterday, protecting my
• 25:21
  Speaker 1: Orchis from impeachment and also having to admit and for
• 25:25
  Speaker 1: the American people to see the disaster of the southern border.
• 25:28
  Speaker 1: We also had testimony yesterday on the same day that
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: you guys are dealing with this coming from our Attorney
• 25:36
  Speaker 1: General Garland on the issue of fetanols, saying it's the
• 25:39
  Speaker 1: biggest threat to this country and the biggest killer for Americans.
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: He's admitting that the fetanyl is flowing across the open
• 25:45
  Speaker 1: border on the same day that they're saying, oh, no, no,
• 25:47
  Speaker 1: everything's fine at the southern border.
• 25:49
  Speaker 8: That's exactly right. The contradictory nature of all of that
• 25:53
  Speaker 8: is really a standing, and you know, I think it
• 25:58
  Speaker 8: is just a stamping for Chuck Humer to just push
• 26:02
  Speaker 8: this aside as a policy difference. As I said, when
• 26:06
  Speaker 8: we know the intentionality they've moved forward, and it is
• 26:10
  Speaker 8: an unconstitutional move because we take an oath of office
• 26:17
  Speaker 8: that we are going to defend this country. And when
• 26:23
  Speaker 8: you have that border wide open and you do not
• 26:28
  Speaker 8: know who is coming in, you do not know the threats.
• 26:31
  Speaker 8: You know that China is literally invading us. They have
• 26:35
  Speaker 8: pushed nearly twenty five thousand single adult males into this
• 26:42
  Speaker 8: country since the beginning of the fiscal year. And this
• 26:47
  Speaker 8: secretary does nothing. The Secretary comes to Congress and the
• 26:50
  Speaker 8: Wise and says the border is secure and people can
• 26:54
  Speaker 8: see with their own eyes this border is not secure.
• 26:58
  Speaker 8: You have the Department of Job it's just telling us
• 27:01
  Speaker 8: that Saint Paul is killing more Americans than anything else,
• 27:06
  Speaker 8: and they're having a tough time running down these cartels
• 27:10
  Speaker 8: and getting them off of American streets. You have the
• 27:14
  Speaker 8: FBI director saying, I see flashing lights everywhere, flashing red
• 27:20
  Speaker 8: lights every fare I look, and this border. We have
• 27:25
  Speaker 8: three hundred plus known terrorist watchless names that have been
• 27:32
  Speaker 8: apprehended at that southern border. We have thousands of people
• 27:36
  Speaker 8: from countries of interests, and the Secretary of Homeland Security
• 27:41
  Speaker 8: that does not believe in securing the homeland. The Democrats
• 27:45
  Speaker 8: defend him. I hope every single one of them. Use
• 27:50
  Speaker 8: is just horrendous. Last last question on this into this country.
• 27:55
  Speaker 1: Is there any accountability? And I think this is part
• 27:58
  Speaker 1: of the frustration center for so many. You know, you
• 28:01
  Speaker 1: go to April of this year, and this is what
• 28:03
  Speaker 1: my arc has said.
• 28:04
  Speaker 7: Now, I have never minimized the challenge that the southern
• 28:07
  Speaker 7: border presents.
• 28:08
  Speaker 1: It is my I've never minimized the challenge of southern
• 28:11
  Speaker 1: border presents. You go back to April twenty twenty three.
• 28:14
  Speaker 1: This is in testamony to Congress. So you're lying to Congress.
• 28:17
  Speaker 7: He said this, since it is my testimony that the
• 28:20
  Speaker 7: order is secure.
• 28:22
  Speaker 1: That's a lie. He knew he was lying. He knew
• 28:24
  Speaker 1: it was a wide open border. He's admitting it now
• 28:27
  Speaker 1: that okay, I'm changing my story. But I guess you
• 28:30
  Speaker 1: can just light to Congress sound there's zero accountability for that.
• 28:33
  Speaker 1: That's what Democrats have basically said, when we're in charge,
• 28:35
  Speaker 1: we can lie to the American people and lie to you,
• 28:38
  Speaker 1: and our officials can lie to Congress about anything they
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: want to with zero accountability. Is that the new world
• 28:43
  Speaker 1: we live in.
• 28:44
  Speaker 3: Thank you?
• 28:45
  Speaker 8: Justice one for them and one for other people, and
• 28:50
  Speaker 8: that's the way they look at it. And they just
• 28:53
  Speaker 8: were so proud of themselves yesterday. You should have seen
• 28:57
  Speaker 8: them smiling and rolling eyes. They were so happy to
• 29:01
  Speaker 8: get off the floor and get on with their day.
• 29:04
  Speaker 8: I'm sure they all had fancy DC cocktail parties to
• 29:08
  Speaker 8: go to last night, and they were just so pleased
• 29:12
  Speaker 8: they had handled this and talked to deplorables. Another lesson
• 29:17
  Speaker 8: about how DC really works. It is sickening and people
• 29:22
  Speaker 8: are suffering. We have Tennessee insteader losing their lives. Every
• 29:27
  Speaker 8: sheriff I meet with tells me the number one issue
• 29:30
  Speaker 8: they have, drugs and crime and communities cannot be addressed
• 29:36
  Speaker 8: until the southern border is secured.
• 29:38
  Speaker 1: As always, it's a pleasure to chat with you. We'll
• 29:40
  Speaker 1: have you back again real soon, all right, don't forget.
