- 0:01Speaker 1: Fraud.
- 0:02Speaker 2: It is something many Americans say that they are sick
- 0:05Speaker 2: and tired of, especially when it's coming from the people
- 0:07Speaker 2: that are elected who are not supposed to be involved
- 0:10Speaker 2: in abusing their power. Well, we've learned something new about somebody,
- 0:16Speaker 2: a name that you're going to know, well, Representative alam Omar.
- 0:20Speaker 2: She's the Democrat from Minnesota. The former President of United
- 0:24Speaker 2: States America, Joe Biden, and his Department of Justice. We've
- 0:28Speaker 2: also learned actually began an investigation into the finances of
- 0:34Speaker 2: Representative elam Omar, the Somali refugee turned far left politician,
- 0:41Speaker 2: after reports suggested that she had amassed a multi million
- 0:46Speaker 2: dollar net worth since being elected to Congress, The New
- 0:49Speaker 2: York Times reports this week, The Times reported that the
- 0:54Speaker 2: DOJ opened a probe into Omar's finances in twenty twenty four,
- 1:00Speaker 2: suggesting the President Donald J. Trump's questioning of how Omar
- 1:04Speaker 2: got her wealth was also a question that was raised
- 1:07Speaker 2: by federal prosecutors under the Biden administration. Quote The Justice
- 1:12Speaker 2: Department under the Biden administration opened an investigation into the Representative,
- 1:17Speaker 2: the Democrat of Minnesota in twenty twenty four to scrutinize
- 1:21Speaker 2: her finances. Campaign spending and interactions with a foreign citizen,
- 1:27Speaker 2: according to Bill familiar with the matter of the Times
- 1:29Speaker 2: Is reporting. This week, Trump posted a true social remarks
- 1:34Speaker 2: about the DOJ investigation into Omar, saying, quote, the DOJ
- 1:40Speaker 2: and Congress are looking at Congresswoman Omar, who left Somalia
- 1:45Speaker 2: with nothing and is now reportedly worth more than forty
- 1:48Speaker 2: four million dollars. Time will tell all. Thank you for
- 1:52Speaker 2: your attention this matter. In response, Omar posted to x
- 1:57Speaker 2: that Trump's support is collapsing and that the President is
- 2:01Speaker 2: panicking and suggesting that there was nothing for the DOJ
- 2:05Speaker 2: to investigate regarding her finances, saying quote, sorry, Trump, your
- 2:10Speaker 2: support is collapsing and you're panicking right on cue. You're
- 2:14Speaker 2: deflecting from your failures with lies and conspiracy theories about me.
- 2:19Speaker 2: Years of investigations have found nothing. Most recently, by the way,
- 2:24Speaker 2: Representative James Comer said he would subpoena Omar's husband over
- 2:30Speaker 2: the couple's suspicious net worth. As Breitbart News also reported
- 2:35Speaker 2: last year, Omar and her husband's financial documents indicate that
- 2:41Speaker 2: by the end of twenty twenty four, the pair had
- 2:44Speaker 2: a net worth of anywhere from six to thirty million dollars.
- 2:47Speaker 2: I want to take a quick moment and talk to
- 2:49Speaker 2: you about an incredible organization and it is called Compassion International,
- 2:54Speaker 2: and how you can get involved. I want you to
- 2:57Speaker 2: just pause what you're doing for the next sixty seconds,
- 3:00Speaker 2: and I want you to imagine Lucy, a seven year old.
- 3:03Speaker 2: Her stomach often aches with hunger, her small hands instead
- 3:06Speaker 2: of holding crayons, no, only the struggle of survival on
- 3:11Speaker 2: dusty streets. School is a distant dream, medical care forgotten hope.
- 3:16Speaker 2: Lucy's potential is overshadowed, her future is dim. But what
- 3:21Speaker 2: if someone stepped in? What if there was a way
- 3:23Speaker 2: to ignite hope for children just like Lucy? Well there is,
- 3:27Speaker 2: and that is with Compassion International partners and the local
- 3:31Speaker 2: churches that provide children holistic support more than just food.
- 3:36Speaker 2: They receive critical medical care, life changing education, vital skills training,
- 3:42Speaker 2: and spiritual development, all in Jesus's name. And you can
- 3:46Speaker 2: empower a child just like Lucy to break free from poverty.
- 3:50Speaker 2: I want you to do what I've done and sponsor
- 3:53Speaker 2: a child today. You can visit Compassion dot com. That's
- 3:57Speaker 2: Compassion dot com. The figures in Omar's latest disclosure show
- 4:02Speaker 2: that her and her husband's net were skyrocketed by at
- 4:05Speaker 2: least three thousand, five hundred percent in just one year.
- 4:12Speaker 2: That coming from the Washington Free Beacon. I want you
- 4:16Speaker 2: to just pause what you're doing for the next sixty seconds,
- 4:19Speaker 2: and I want you to imagine Lucy, a seven year old.
- 4:22Speaker 2: Her stomach often aches with hunger, her small hands instead
- 4:25Speaker 2: of holding crayons, no, only the struggle of survival on
- 4:30Speaker 2: dusty streets. School is a distant dream, medical care forgotten hope.
- 4:36Speaker 2: Lucy's potential is overshadowed, her future is dim. But what
- 4:40Speaker 2: if someone stepped in? What if there was a way
- 4:42Speaker 2: to ignite hope for children just like Lucy? Well there is,
- 4:46Speaker 2: and that is with Compassion International Partners and the local
- 4:50Speaker 2: churches that provide children holistic support more than just food.
- 4:55Speaker 2: They receive critical medical care, life changing education, skills training,
- 5:01Speaker 2: and spiritual development, all in Jesus's name. And you can
- 5:05Speaker 2: empower a child just like Lucy to break free from poverty.
- 5:09Speaker 2: I want you to do what I've done and sponsor
- 5:12Speaker 2: a child today. You can visit Compassion dot com. That's
- 5:16Speaker 2: Compassion dot com, which brings us to another part of
- 5:20Speaker 2: the story. Apparently Omar is a part owner of a winery.
- 5:25Speaker 2: The only problem with the winery is it doesn't seem
- 5:28Speaker 2: to be operating at all. In fact, it seems a
- 5:31Speaker 2: lot like the childcare centers in Minnesota, you know, the
- 5:34Speaker 2: Leering Center. Well, her worth in that winery is upwards
- 5:39Speaker 2: of five million dollars.
- 5:41Speaker 3: How are you making.
- 5:42Speaker 2: Money off of wine that no one's drinking or isn't
- 5:45Speaker 2: even being produced. Here's what I had to say on
- 5:48Speaker 2: Newsmax about that exact issue, as it was explained to me.
- 5:54Speaker 4: We call the winery no phone number. We looked at
- 5:57Speaker 4: the website. It's closed on weekends. I looked in California
- 5:59Speaker 4: for four years, like, how's a winery in a tasting
- 6:02Speaker 4: room closed on weekends? That's when you go taste wine.
- 6:04Speaker 4: Can you explain how that winery is increasing in value
- 6:07Speaker 4: without producing wine?
- 6:08Speaker 1: Why?
- 6:08Speaker 3: Why are you being so pessimistic this evening. This is
- 6:11Speaker 3: a rebrand.
- 6:12Speaker 5: It's gonna come back out as Leering Wine, okay, And
- 6:15Speaker 5: it connects the great vineyards of California with the Leering
- 6:21Speaker 5: grapes of Minneapolis, Minnesota. And the workers, by the way,
- 6:25Speaker 5: are all coming from the child daycare center. So the
- 6:28Speaker 5: ones that we couldn't find. They're actually out there stepping
- 6:32Speaker 5: on the wines as we speak. This is just how
- 6:35Speaker 5: great wine is made in the Democratic Party. Stop being
- 6:38Speaker 5: so pessimistic. There's no foul play here. You step on grapes.
- 6:42Speaker 5: The Leering Wine Group does it, and bam, you make
- 6:44Speaker 5: five million dollars.
- 6:45Speaker 3: So just look. Look, some people work hard in life
- 6:48Speaker 3: like you and I. Others don't have to.
- 6:50Speaker 4: Ben Do you think Republicans can actually get to the
- 6:53Speaker 4: bottom of this and the clock is ticking?
- 6:55Speaker 3: Yeah, I'll say this. Number One, they better because this
- 6:58Speaker 3: is what I voted for.
- 6:59Speaker 2: And I'm not putting up with this crap from the
- 7:00Speaker 2: Republicans if they don't actually seize on clear evidence of
- 7:03Speaker 2: corruption and fraud, and so I am holding them accountable
- 7:07Speaker 2: to hold those accountable that have done this.
- 7:08Speaker 3: Number Two, I don't care how good your wine is.
- 7:11Speaker 5: Your twenty twenty five vintage wine of Alamo mar.
- 7:14Speaker 3: Is not good enough to make you five million dollars.
- 7:18Speaker 3: Prove me wrong. Come at me, any wine maker out there.
- 7:21Speaker 3: This is corruption.
- 7:22Speaker 6: Like we can laugh about it and joke about it,
- 7:25Speaker 6: but this is corruption at the highest levels within our
- 7:28Speaker 6: government by the people supposed to running our government. If
- 7:31Speaker 6: people don't start going to jail, it will never end.
- 7:34Speaker 2: If people don't start going to jail, it will never end.
- 7:40Speaker 2: Which brings us back to that report that came out
- 7:43Speaker 2: from the Washington Free Beacon. Their headline, Alamo Mar said,
- 7:48Speaker 2: it's categorically false to call her a millionaire. Her net
- 7:53Speaker 2: worth just reached up to thirty million, an increase of
- 7:56Speaker 2: at least three thousand and five percent in one year.
- 8:00Speaker 2: In fact, much of the squad member's wealth comes through
- 8:03Speaker 2: her husband's winery and venture capital firm. Omar's personal fortune
- 8:09Speaker 2: exploded to upward a thirty million and twenty twenty four,
- 8:12Speaker 2: the Minnesota Democrat disclosed just months after telling the press
- 8:16Speaker 2: it was ridiculous and categorically false to say she's worth
- 8:20Speaker 2: millions of dollars. Omar reported in her last financial disclosure
- 8:24Speaker 2: that she and her husband, former political consultant, accumulated net
- 8:28Speaker 2: worth at the end of twenty twenty four ranging from
- 8:31Speaker 2: minimum six million to thirty million. Their wealth is derived
- 8:35Speaker 2: almost entirely from the value of his ownership stake in
- 8:40Speaker 2: his two companies that together were worth no more than
- 8:43Speaker 2: fifty one thousand at the end of twenty twenty three.
- 8:47Speaker 2: The exact value of Omar's personal fortune at the end
- 8:50Speaker 2: of twenty twenty four is unclear. Lawmakers disclosed the value
- 8:54Speaker 2: of their holdings and debts in ranges. Still, the figures
- 8:58Speaker 2: in Omar's latest disclosure sure show that her and her
- 9:01Speaker 2: husband's net worth skyrocketed by at least three thousand, five
- 9:06Speaker 2: hundred percent in just one year. Omar's accumulation of wealth
- 9:11Speaker 2: in twenty twenty four could raise uncomfortable questions for the
- 9:16Speaker 2: Minnesota Democrat, who in February told Business Insider that she
- 9:20Speaker 2: had been the subject of a quote coordinated right wing
- 9:25Speaker 2: disinformation campaign that falsely claims she's worth millions of dollars.
- 9:31Speaker 2: Omar said any insinuation that she's worth more than a
- 9:35Speaker 2: few thousand dollars was ridiculous. She also took to x
- 9:39Speaker 2: in February, challenging her followers to maybe try checking my
- 9:44Speaker 2: public financial statements and you will see I barely have thousands,
- 9:48Speaker 2: let alone millions. Omar has her husband think for capitulating
- 9:54Speaker 2: her to multimillionaire status in twenty twenty four. He has
- 9:58Speaker 2: that California based winery and a venture capital firm, Roselake Capital,
- 10:03Speaker 2: both achieved remarkable financial turnarounds in twenty twenty four. At
- 10:07Speaker 2: the end of twenty twenty three, for example, their combined
- 10:10Speaker 2: steak in both companies was worth no more than fifty
- 10:14Speaker 2: one thousand dollars. They claimed the firms had less than
- 10:19Speaker 2: seven hundred across all their bank accounts, and her husband,
- 10:24Speaker 2: said his business partner, former DNC advisor Will Hellier, were
- 10:29Speaker 2: saddled with lawsuits from investors claiming they defrauded them out
- 10:33Speaker 2: of millions of dollars, but Bam by the end of
- 10:37Speaker 2: twenty twenty four. Less than a year later, their combined
- 10:40Speaker 2: steak in the two Ferns balloon to anywhere between six
- 10:43Speaker 2: and thirty million, and he and his partner settled the
- 10:46Speaker 2: lawsuits with cash settlements to Washington Freebeacon has also learned
- 10:50Speaker 2: the business activities have long been a thorn in Omar's
- 10:53Speaker 2: said ever since they married in March of twenty twenty.
- 10:57Speaker 2: They were both married to other people when they met,
- 11:00Speaker 2: but the pair began a fair while. The man served
- 11:02Speaker 2: as a political consultant to her campaign, which paid his
- 11:06Speaker 2: firm a whopping you ready for this two zero point
- 11:10Speaker 2: nine million during the twenty twenty election cycle alone, But
- 11:15Speaker 2: that was a fleeting arrangement. The financial ties between Omar's
- 11:20Speaker 2: campaign and her new husband's firm drew intense public scrutiny,
- 11:24Speaker 2: and by the end of twenty twenty, her husband had
- 11:27Speaker 2: exited the political consulting business and teamed up with his
- 11:30Speaker 2: former colleague to branch out into the winery and venture
- 11:34Speaker 2: capital industries, which now give them a return in just
- 11:38Speaker 2: one year of at least three thousand, five hundred percent.
- 11:43Speaker 2: So now you know why the President's asking questions and
- 11:46Speaker 2: why the Department of Justice is looking into it, and
- 11:49Speaker 2: how is it you can make so much money off
- 11:51Speaker 2: of winery that isn't operating and whine that you can't
- 11:55Speaker 2: go out and buy. I'll let the Feds figure that
- 11:59Speaker 2: one out. Alex Preddy, you may remember him as the
- 12:04Speaker 2: guy that was shot by Ice after there was a
- 12:06Speaker 2: physical encounter. We're now learning a lot more about the individual,
- 12:11Speaker 2: including the fact that he had a broken rib whine
- 12:15Speaker 2: in another physical encounter during anti Ice protests just a
- 12:20Speaker 2: week before he was shot. He was also quote known
- 12:24Speaker 2: to federal law enforcement before he was fatally shot, and
- 12:28Speaker 2: not only did he have a broken rib during that
- 12:30Speaker 2: physical altercation with ICE agents a week before he was
- 12:33Speaker 2: killed by Border patrol on Saturday. Sources are now confirming
- 12:38Speaker 2: Preddy had a quote physical encounter with federal agents about
- 12:41Speaker 2: a week before he was shot and killed by law
- 12:43Speaker 2: enforcement his house. CNN is now reporting it as well.
- 12:47Speaker 2: Here's part of what they had to say as they
- 12:49Speaker 2: were telling their audience what had happened.
- 12:52Speaker 7: And it is learning that Alex Preddy had a physical
- 12:54Speaker 7: encounter with federal agents about a week before he was
- 12:57Speaker 7: shot and killed by law enforcement. Sources tell CNN that
- 13:01Speaker 7: Pretty broke a rib when a group of federal officers
- 13:04Speaker 7: tackled him while he was protesting. Priscilla Alvarez is breaking
- 13:09Speaker 7: that story for us. What else are you hearing, Priscilla.
- 13:11Speaker 8: Dan And we're learning more details along with my colleague
- 13:14Speaker 8: Jeff Winter, about what exactly transpired a week before Alex
- 13:18Speaker 8: Pretty was shot in Minneapolis and died this past weekend. Now,
- 13:22Speaker 8: in this earlier incident, he stopped his car after observing
- 13:27Speaker 8: ice agents chasing what he described as a family on foot,
- 13:31Speaker 8: and began shouting and blowing his whistle. Pretty later told
- 13:35Speaker 8: one of these sources that five agents tackled him and
- 13:38Speaker 8: one leaned on his pat on his back, appearing to
- 13:42Speaker 8: leave him with a broken rib. According to this source,
- 13:45Speaker 8: and I'm quoting here that said quote that day, he
- 13:48Speaker 8: thought he was going to die. Now, Preddy was later
- 13:52Speaker 8: given medication that is consistent with treating a broken rib,
- 13:55Speaker 8: according to records reviewed by CNNs. Versus also say that
- 14:00Speaker 8: he was known to federal law enforcement, though it's unclear
- 14:03Speaker 8: whether it was this incident or another with federal agents
- 14:07Speaker 8: that they knew him they knew of him.
- 14:10Speaker 1: It's also unclear.
- 14:11Speaker 8: Whether the officers who tackled him on Saturday knew who
- 14:15Speaker 8: he was. We do know, however, is that federal immigration
- 14:18Speaker 8: officers have been collecting personal information of protesters and agitators
- 14:23Speaker 8: within the context of the Department of Homeland Security has
- 14:26Speaker 8: warned is repeated threats towards officers as they are conducting
- 14:31Speaker 8: immigration enforcement operations. In fact, just Tuesday, the Department also
- 14:35Speaker 8: publicized an online tip form to share information about people
- 14:38Speaker 8: allegedly harassing ice officers. We've also heard Tom Holman the
- 14:42Speaker 8: White House Borders are say that a database would be
- 14:44Speaker 8: created for those who are arrested for impeding law enforcement,
- 14:49Speaker 8: but thus far, in our queries to the Department Homeland Security,
- 14:52Speaker 8: they have said that no such database exists.
- 14:56Speaker 2: Now here's the question whose side is seeing it on?
- 14:59Speaker 1: There?
- 15:00Speaker 2: Is it the side of the protester that attacked law enforcement,
- 15:05Speaker 2: Because if you listen to how they just report that news,
- 15:08Speaker 2: they want you to feel sorry for the man who
- 15:10Speaker 2: had a broken rib. Now, this incident unfolded after Preddy
- 15:13Speaker 2: stopped his car upon observing ICE agents chasing a family
- 15:18Speaker 2: on foot and got involved by protesting their attempt to
- 15:22Speaker 2: detain the other individuals. Now, of course he didn't know.
- 15:25Speaker 2: We would assume what those people were being chased for, right,
- 15:29Speaker 2: what crimes they may have committed, it doesn't matter, because
- 15:31Speaker 2: when you want to go to war with ICE agents
- 15:33Speaker 2: like this man did before and was doing it again,
- 15:38Speaker 2: this is exactly what you can expect from the radical left.
- 15:41Speaker 2: He was again tackled by US Immigration and Customs enforcement
- 15:45Speaker 2: agents and later claimed that one of the officers had
- 15:48Speaker 2: leaned on his back, leaving him with a quote broken rib.
- 15:51Speaker 2: That day he thought he was going to die, you
- 15:53Speaker 2: heard in that interview there. Well, did he really think
- 15:56Speaker 2: he was going to die? Because if you did, would
- 15:58Speaker 2: you show up and do it all over again days later?
- 16:02Speaker 3: Think about that?
- 16:03Speaker 2: The source of course that CNN has also added that
- 16:08Speaker 2: Preddy's name was already known to federal agents by the
- 16:11Speaker 2: time he was fatally shot in Minneapolis. Okay, that brings
- 16:15Speaker 2: up another question, how do they know about you? How
- 16:17Speaker 2: often were you doing this? How often were you involved?
- 16:21Speaker 2: Now it remains unclear the federal agents who encountered Preddy
- 16:26Speaker 2: on Saturday eight new or recognized him before the scuffle
- 16:29Speaker 2: and the ultimate that ultimately led to the thirty seven
- 16:32Speaker 2: year old's death. In its report you may have noticed there,
- 16:35Speaker 2: CNN said he had a gun in his waistband during
- 16:39Speaker 2: Saturday's brawl.
- 16:42Speaker 1: Yes.
- 16:42Speaker 2: Bright bart News also reported the limited facts available at
- 16:46Speaker 2: the time of Saturday's fatal shooting of Preddy by a
- 16:48Speaker 2: Border Patrol agent that so far have not been disputed,
- 16:53Speaker 2: indicated he was armed during the struggle that led up
- 16:55Speaker 2: to the shooting. So another example of you know, the
- 16:59Speaker 2: media just not wanting to actually talk about the real
- 17:02Speaker 2: issue here. Moreover, the CBP use of force policy is
- 17:06Speaker 2: grounded in constitutional law as interpreted by the federal courts,
- 17:11Speaker 2: and requires any use of force be objectively reasonable based
- 17:15Speaker 2: on the circumstances as the agent perceived them at the
- 17:19Speaker 2: moment force was applied. Now, this standard is determined by
- 17:24Speaker 2: what the agent knew or perceived when he pulled the trigger,
- 17:27Speaker 2: not by public opinion, certainly not the media or the
- 17:31Speaker 2: influence by politicians, nor by a retrospective onerous review of
- 17:37Speaker 2: slow motion video footage. The policy states that any time
- 17:41Speaker 2: an agent has a reasonable belief a person poses an
- 17:46Speaker 2: imminent danger of death or serious physical injury to the
- 17:50Speaker 2: agent or another person, the primary hurdle for using deadly
- 17:55Speaker 2: force is cleared and the action is authorized. Now the
- 17:59Speaker 2: use Department of Home Security has repeatedly warned of threats
- 18:02Speaker 2: against federal agents during immigration enforcement operations, saying this win
- 18:08Speaker 2: our law enforcement encounters a violent agitator who is breaking
- 18:13Speaker 2: the law, obstructing law enforcement, or assaulting them, our law
- 18:17Speaker 2: enforcement make records to advance prosecution. That coming from the
- 18:22Speaker 2: DHS Assistant Secretary of Trista McLaughlin. This is not groundbreaking,
- 18:26Speaker 2: It is standard protocol. So when you hear the stories
- 18:30Speaker 2: about this individual, just know he had a history of
- 18:34Speaker 2: going after ICE agents even a week before. And remember
- 18:39Speaker 2: many in the media are still not talking about the
- 18:41Speaker 2: fact that the man was armed during the encounter. I
- 18:46Speaker 2: want to get back to another bigger point when we're
- 18:49Speaker 2: talking about the corruption within the media and how they're
- 18:51Speaker 2: telling the story about the man that was shot by
- 18:54Speaker 2: ice in Minnesota. They're also lying about the Democratic Party
- 18:58Speaker 2: and what they believe on immigration, including deportations. Not that
- 19:03Speaker 2: long ago, the mainstream media stunned into silence as the
- 19:08Speaker 2: White House Press Secretary had to remind them that Barack
- 19:11Speaker 2: Obama actually awarded a medal to the man they hate
- 19:16Speaker 2: the most right now that's just been deployed to Minnesota,
- 19:18Speaker 2: Tom Holman. Here is what she had to say from
- 19:21Speaker 2: the White House podium, reminding them, you guys are saying
- 19:24Speaker 2: you hate Tom. Well, guess how he got so big?
- 19:28Speaker 2: It was actually because of Barack Obama.
- 19:30Speaker 9: Back.
- 19:31Speaker 10: This is a Washington Post headline from nine years ago,
- 19:34Speaker 10: twenty sixteen. Meet the man the White House has honored
- 19:37Speaker 10: for deporting illegal immigrants, and I would remind everyone in
- 19:40Speaker 10: this room that it was former President Barack Hussein Obama
- 19:43Speaker 10: who awarded a medal to mister Homan. So he's obviously
- 19:46Speaker 10: very qualified. He has the full trust and faith of
- 19:48Speaker 10: the President. He will continue to have these meetings in
- 19:51Speaker 10: the hopes that weak ICE and local law enforcement can
- 19:55Speaker 10: cooperate and work together to have successful immigration enforcement. As
- 19:59Speaker 10: we've seen in almost every other state across the country.
- 20:03Speaker 2: Now you would send to the White House press herety
- 20:05Speaker 2: there reminding the press room of what they were writing
- 20:09Speaker 2: about Tom Holman when he was connected to Barack Obama.
- 20:12Speaker 3: And it's not just that.
- 20:13Speaker 2: Let me also remind you of what Barack Obama actually
- 20:16Speaker 2: had to say in twenty ten on this entire issue.
- 20:20Speaker 2: Here's the President in his own words back in twenty ten.
- 20:24Speaker 11: There are those in the immigrants rights community who have
- 20:27Speaker 11: argued passionately that we should simply provide those who are
- 20:32Speaker 11: illegally with legal status, or at least ignore the laws
- 20:37Speaker 11: on the books, and put an end to deportation until
- 20:40Speaker 11: we have better laws. And often this argument is framed
- 20:43Speaker 11: in moral terms. Why should we punish people who are
- 20:47Speaker 11: just trying to earn a living. I recognize the sense
- 20:51Speaker 11: of compassion that drives this argument, but I believe such
- 20:55Speaker 11: an indiscriminate approach would be both.
- 20:57Speaker 1: Unwise and unfair.
- 21:00Speaker 11: It would suggest to those thinking about coming here illegally
- 21:03Speaker 11: that there will be no repercussions for such a decision,
- 21:07Speaker 11: and this could lead to a surge in more illegal immigration.
- 21:13Speaker 11: And it would also ignore the millions of people around
- 21:16Speaker 11: the world who are waiting in line to come here legally. Ultimately,
- 21:21Speaker 11: our nation, like all nations, has the right and obligation
- 21:26Speaker 11: to control its borders and set laws for residency and citizenship.
- 21:32Speaker 11: And no matter how decent they are, no matter their reasons,
- 21:37Speaker 11: the eleven million who broke these laws should be held accountable.
- 21:42Speaker 2: The eleven million. He used that number back in twenty ten,
- 21:47Speaker 2: said they should be held accountable. President Obama shooting down
- 21:52Speaker 2: the whole stop deportations and just let the illegal immigrants be,
- 21:57Speaker 2: you know, turn into Americans citizens. He's saying no back then. Now,
- 22:03Speaker 2: that's the most important part of the conversation is that
- 22:07Speaker 2: you actually have this. It is truly, truly incredible. I
- 22:14Speaker 2: will also say one other thing, and this still is
- 22:17Speaker 2: a Tom Homan, who's just been dispatched too, by the way,
- 22:20Speaker 2: was given a medal by Barack obamaa Minneapolis. He did
- 22:24Speaker 2: an interview talking about Tim Waltzon Jacob Fry and he
- 22:29Speaker 2: actually went on MSNBC and good on him for doing it.
- 22:32Speaker 2: He called out the left and also the media. Borders
- 22:37Speaker 2: are Tom Homan on Morning Joe listened to what he said,
- 22:42Speaker 2: and he didn't back down at all.
- 22:44Speaker 12: I see on the should this morning, you have Governor
- 22:46Speaker 12: Heay talking about hest do an enforcement operations to that church.
- 22:52Speaker 9: They were parked there. They didn't do an operation there.
- 22:55Speaker 2: She said.
- 22:55Speaker 9: They were parked in a public space legally, but.
- 22:58Speaker 12: To say that, to push it out there puts fear
- 23:02Speaker 12: in the immigrant community.
- 23:03Speaker 1: So let me tell you what's happening to.
- 23:07Speaker 9: My agent's vehicle.
- 23:09Speaker 12: D're on a Parklick street, on the public street, on
- 23:13Speaker 12: a public street, waiting to respond to a criminal alien
- 23:17Speaker 12: release pulled aside the road. Let me tell you in
- 23:19Speaker 12: the last couple of days, what's happened in Boston. They
- 23:22Speaker 12: arrested Victor Goldbetz Paris, the thirty three year old criminal
- 23:25Speaker 12: alily from Guatemala with charges of aggravated rape, assultant batty
- 23:28Speaker 12: with dangerous weapon in decent assault, and battery a victim
- 23:31Speaker 12: fourteen years or younger. They arrested Katie Espinoza, thirty fe
- 23:35Speaker 12: year old criminal alien from Columbia, with charge of aggravators
- 23:38Speaker 12: assault on a pregnant victim. They've arrested Joshua Gonzalez, a
- 23:42Speaker 12: twenty fe year old criminal alien from Dominican Republic, with
- 23:46Speaker 12: charges for trafficking heroin morphine opium, resisting police dislready conducting
- 23:51Speaker 12: drug distribution. They also arrested Samuel Armanda Barrero, a twenty
- 23:55Speaker 12: year old criminal illegal anily from Guatemolo, depending charges for
- 23:58Speaker 12: sault and battery on it child. So Mayor Wu and
- 24:02Speaker 12: Governor Healy, they all be calling ICE and thanking them
- 24:06Speaker 12: for making their streets safer, protecting their communities, and taking
- 24:09Speaker 12: these people off the street. They've turned a blind eye
- 24:12Speaker 12: to this or sanctuary city sanctuaries. Cities and sanctuary states
- 24:16Speaker 12: are sanctuaries for criminals. Give ICE access to the jail
- 24:19Speaker 12: to rest a bad guy in the jail rather than
- 24:21Speaker 12: have to go in the.
- 24:22Speaker 1: Community to find them.
- 24:24Speaker 12: Because when you go into the community finally puts ICE
- 24:26Speaker 12: officers at greater risk. It puts a community at greater risk,
- 24:29Speaker 12: It puts the alien at greater risk because anything.
- 24:31Speaker 1: Happened on threat or risk. This is what we're trying
- 24:33Speaker 1: to do.
- 24:33Speaker 12: We're trying to prioritize public safety trusts. But when you've
- 24:38Speaker 12: got governors and mayors who are releasing these public safty
- 24:40Speaker 12: trusts every day into the community, that causes the crime.
- 24:44Speaker 12: Right and we've seen some terrible incidents in the last
- 24:47Speaker 12: few days where innocent victims are murdered. Out of this
- 24:50Speaker 12: past year, I've seen innocent Americans raped and murdered by
- 24:54Speaker 12: people who are not supposed to be here.
- 24:56Speaker 1: So rather than going back.
- 24:57Speaker 12: And forth saying, well, Ice has got a car park
- 24:59Speaker 12: near it, that is ridiculous, you're out there looking for
- 25:02Speaker 12: people like this, exactly what the well, I.
- 25:04Speaker 9: Would argue that actually that the Ice vehicle parked upside
- 25:08Speaker 9: a Spanish mass is a frightening site given what has
- 25:12Speaker 9: happened in this country. I also, with respect, sir, thank
- 25:15Speaker 9: you for the information that you have shared on this show,
- 25:18Speaker 9: but we would appreciate all of the information, all of it,
- 25:23Speaker 9: all of the data that you have.
- 25:25Speaker 1: I've done this show several times.
- 25:27Speaker 12: Every time on your show, I speak with integrity, I
- 25:30Speaker 12: speak with honesty, and I speak with facts.
- 25:32Speaker 1: The bottom line is, because of.
- 25:34Speaker 12: All this falsearive and you using the term disappearing people.
- 25:40Speaker 9: To the group that entially.
- 25:44Speaker 12: Citizens, US citizens get arrested every day, you and citizens
- 25:48Speaker 12: get rested by policts every day. Are they being disappeared?
- 25:51Speaker 12: Their laws are being being arrested, They're being put in
- 25:55Speaker 12: detention because they committed a criminal Like what you're doing,
- 26:00Speaker 12: we're enforcing the law and arresting people here in violational
- 26:03Speaker 12: law that a public stafety trusts. That's not disappearing people,
- 26:06Speaker 12: that's enforcing the laws of this country and make this
- 26:09Speaker 12: country safer.
- 26:10Speaker 2: I tell you what, Tom Homan, now you know why
- 26:12Speaker 2: Barack Obama gave him an award. He's backing down from
- 26:16Speaker 2: no one, including the radicals at MSNBC. We're going to
