• 0:00
  Speaker 1: So there has been a total reset in the governor's
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: race in California after the Democrats got rid of Eric Swawell.
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: Now you've got a guy who's a billionaire that is
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: trying to buy the election. I want to remind you
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: who this guy is, Tom Styer. He's a billionaire and
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: he wants you to believe that everyone like him, just
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: of course you admit him from the equation is evil
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: and bad and that's who he's going after. This guy
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: is the definition of a limousine liberal. He's rich, he's
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: got a driver, he's got security, he's loaded. But if
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: you listen to what he says on his own Facebook page,
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: he says, I want you to know what it's all about.
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: He says, it's about lowering costs for Californians. Now, how
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: would you do that when he's in favor of single
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: payer health care?
• 0:55
  Speaker 2: What is that?
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: That's full blown socialized medicine. It is a disaster everyone
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: in the world where it's offered, and it costs a
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: crap ton of money.
• 1:03
  Speaker 2: That's just one example. But this guy will literally.
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: Say anything to get elected so that he can then
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: grab your tax hours and then become a socialist with
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: those tax hours. Now listen carefully to what he claims
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: he's in favor of before we get into politics of
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: what has happened the last twenty four hours.
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: There.
• 1:24
  Speaker 3: Hey guys, I'm Tom Steyer and I'm running for governor
• 1:26
  Speaker 3: of California. I entered this race to make California more
• 1:30
  Speaker 3: affordable for you. If you found your way to my
• 1:32
  Speaker 3: social media pages, here's what I want to say. Number One,
• 1:35
  Speaker 3: I'm going to tax the big corporations and the billionaires.
• 1:38
  Speaker 3: They've been greedy. They should be good citizens of our
• 1:41
  Speaker 3: state and pay their fair share. Second, housing is at
• 1:44
  Speaker 3: the center of our affordability crisis. I'm going to build
• 1:47
  Speaker 3: a million homes and protect renters. We need a governor
• 1:49
  Speaker 3: with a housing plan, and I've gone Third, I'm going
• 1:52
  Speaker 3: to lower costs, and we're going to start with electricity costs,
• 1:55
  Speaker 3: which I'm going to lower my twenty five percent by
• 1:58
  Speaker 3: taking on the electric monopoly that dominate this stack. Number Four,
• 2:02
  Speaker 3: Immigrants built California. I will abolish ice and fight for
• 2:06
  Speaker 3: the immigrant families who've been historically mistreated. I've always fought
• 2:10
  Speaker 3: for you, and I will always fight for you. Five
• 2:13
  Speaker 3: I'm a huge climate guy, and climate starts with environmental justice,
• 2:17
  Speaker 3: but climate includes making polluters pay every time. Last week,
• 2:22
  Speaker 3: healthcare is a right and the only way we can
• 2:24
  Speaker 3: deliver it in way that Californians can afford is with
• 2:26
  Speaker 3: a single payer system. That's why I'm afford it. If
• 2:29
  Speaker 3: those values resonate with you, help us win this race.
• 2:32
  Speaker 3: Go to Tomsteyer dot com and let's win.
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: So that is the pits for you.
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: I'm going to go after the evil rich people that
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: need to pay their fair share. By the way, he's
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: literally one of them. And oh, by the way, I'm
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: a really rich guy who's gotten no traction. So instead
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: of actually getting traction with the voters, what is he
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: going to do?
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: Right?
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: Like what he's going to try to buy the election?
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: That's what he's been doing, spending record amount on some money. Now,
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: if you don't think this guy's a full radical, this
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: is what you need to know. He has come out
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: and it's been clear now that he wants to abolish
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: ice and then not just abolish them, he wants to
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: imprison the agents in California. This breaking from Fox News
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: Channel about how radical he really is.
• 3:22
  Speaker 4: Okay, so he's releasing an immigration plan that would empower
• 3:25
  Speaker 4: the state to prosecute Ice. He explains, quote how California
• 3:30
  Speaker 4: can put Ice in jail and selling that for Democrats
• 3:33
  Speaker 4: to simply engage in rhetoric and stand for against Ice
• 3:36
  Speaker 4: or Trump, California must build a system that fights fire
• 3:39
  Speaker 4: with fire.
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: Okay.
• 3:40
  Speaker 5: Martha McCallum here hosts the story three o'clock Eastern Time.
• 3:44
  Speaker 5: Born out to you.
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: He's got a five point plan. All right, here we go.
• 3:47
  Speaker 5: When an outlaw agencies from profiling immigration arrests, authorize holding
• 3:52
  Speaker 5: Ice leadership accountabile, prosecute the agents, a point fund special
• 3:57
  Speaker 5: investigative unit to enforce laws. Bring those attained and kidnapped
• 4:01
  Speaker 5: by Ice back home. I'll repeat, bring those detained and
• 4:06
  Speaker 5: kidnapped by Ice back home, which I think means if
• 4:09
  Speaker 5: you've been deported, you get the right to come back
• 4:12
  Speaker 5: to California and launch a statewide know your Rights campaign.
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: Ironically, leave it to the Fresno Bee.
• 4:20
  Speaker 5: Tom Steyer once managed a ninety million dollar stake in
• 4:23
  Speaker 5: a firm now running a California ice facility.
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: He's quoted by saying it was a mistake.
• 4:29
  Speaker 6: Well, it's interesting in light of what's happening in that
• 4:32
  Speaker 6: California governor's race and the shakeup that we're seeing because
• 4:35
  Speaker 6: Swalwell is now out, so Democrats are looking for their
• 4:37
  Speaker 6: next big candidate who can move into that spot. You've
• 4:41
  Speaker 6: got two Republicans who are at the top of the
• 4:43
  Speaker 6: list right now. It's a jungle primary that happens in
• 4:46
  Speaker 6: the spring, so you know, you could end up with
• 4:49
  Speaker 6: no Democrats in that mix. And a lot of people
• 4:51
  Speaker 6: think that the sort of off with the head that
• 4:54
  Speaker 6: we saw with Eric Swalwell was orchestrated for this moment
• 4:57
  Speaker 6: so that they could move in their second best candid.
• 5:00
  Speaker 6: I'm not sure Tom Steyer is that person. He hasn't
• 5:03
  Speaker 6: been that person for them in the past.
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: Now you may ask yourself this question, like why do
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: the Democrats get rid of in the past. Let me
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: just answer that because it's terrible candidate. He doesn't relate
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: to people. He's bad candidate. He reminds me of Mitt Romney.
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: Mitt Romney. We knew was going to lose in a
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: general election. Democrats desperately, okay desperately wanted him to win
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: the primary. They did everything to get him across the
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: finish line against Rick Santorum. He bought the election in
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: Ohio primary there to kind of secure things against against
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: Rix and Toorum, and then he got his brains beaten
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: in the general election. I this to me, Tom Sawry, Sorry,
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: it reminds me of the same exact situation or scenario,
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: however you want to describe it. And the only reason
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: why anybody in California knows who he is right now
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: is because he has bought the attention. He has straight
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: up purchased it with his billions of dollars, and he
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: says the evil other people have not paid their fair share. Again,
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: you cannot make up the hypocrisy here at all.
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: Now.
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: Steve Hilton is a guy that's a former Fox News guy.
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: You may recognize his voice. I'm gonna play this for
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: him in just a moment, and I want you to
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: hear what he had to say about the race changing
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: quickly because they have this general primary there where there's
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: a very good chance that a Republican could actually win
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: in this primary. That is the reason why they got
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: rid of the scumbag congressman who was sleeping with Feng
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: Feng Bang bang, the Chinese spy and Eric Swalwell. So
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: take a listen to this from what was said about
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: Tom and Steve Hilton. I think summed up perfectly talking
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: to Harris Faulkner on the Faukner Focus. Now, before I

  Speaker 1: and if you think that, you as a spring court
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: in the Unitsants america or Our constitution is enough to
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: hold me, back he's saying you're. Wrong he also, claimed
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: quote each point builds on one another to create a
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: comprehensive strategy that gives a state Of california the power
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: it needs to take ON ice and then. Win the
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: candidate's first bullet point made the claim THAT ice uses
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: quote racial, profiling which by the, way isn't, true to
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: arrest the legal immigrants and to target them for. Deportation,
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: this he claims Against california statute that outlaws any law
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: enforced agency from profiling anyone based on their. Race he
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: pledged to enforce these statues against federal immigration officers and arrest.
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: Them his second policy pledged to quote give the state
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: attorney general the authority to HOLD ice leader ship accountable
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: for violence and put them in.
• 15:02
  Speaker 2: Jail.
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: Quote my plan will pursue supervisory. Liability this body of
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: law empowers The california justice system to criminally prosecute it in,
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: prison not just THE ice agents who are committing these,
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: crimes but the leadership directing them to do, so he,
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: claimed not explaining how any state law could supersede federal.
• 15:22
  Speaker 2: Authority and it almost.
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: Seems like what he's saying, IS i can go after
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: to rest like THE fbi, director The DEPARTMENT o And
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: security director at The president Of United States, america The Vice, president.
• 15:33
  Speaker 2: Like literally anybody he wants.
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: To his third policy, pledge he, says has set up
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: a special branch of the State Attorney general's office to
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: do what he describes as pursuing evidence that then will
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: lead to prosecution of federal immigration. Officers, again he says
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: this without addressing supremacy, issues and there's a lot of.
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: Them but, look if you say you're going to throw
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: out The Supreme, court THEN i guess you can just
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: do whatever you want to, do and you can throw
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: out The. Constitution and he's, saying, Like california does what
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: we want to, Do come and get me if you want.
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: To then he revealed he thinks a state governor can
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: reverse federal deportation. Ruling so it's not just enough to
• 16:14

  Speaker 1: Interesting he pledged to use more state tax dours to
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: train illegals so they know the rights quote, unquote so
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: he can fight against being held accountable for BREAKING us
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: immigration laws that all be backed by the tax dours
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: in the process of basically being the legal defense fund
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: for the illegal immigrants so that they can defend. Themselves
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: so he's not doing anything For. Americans he's basically running
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: to be the president of the illegal immigrants Of.
• 18:35
  Speaker 2: California.
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: QUOTE i will launch a massive statewide know your, rights
• 18:41
  Speaker 1: public education and public awareness campaigns that are added and.
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: Pledged Every californian quote, unquote regardless of their immigration, status
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: should know their constitutional legal. Rights if you are, stopped,
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: detained or questioned BY ice, agents if if you are
• 19:00

• 19:05
  Speaker 1: activities or if you witness unlawful and illegal actions perpetrated
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: BY ice. Agents, Now sarah claims there is quote solid
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: legal foundation For california to expand these these protections and then,
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: also you, know prosecute THE ice agents for breaking the.
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: Law he had A california should take matters in their own. Hands,
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: well that's pretty. Obvious that's what you're. Saying california can
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: extend these legal protections to its residents despite the federal government's.
• 19:34
  Speaker 1: Failure he then insisted extending these protections is a major step.
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: Forward it targets the lynchpin that holds together the ENTIRE ice,
• 19:44
  Speaker 1: machine their ability to weaponize their authority as federal agents
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: to engage in racial profiling and racial. Violence, NOW i
• 19:52
  Speaker 1: don't believe for a second That sarah actually believes he
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: would win any of. This AND i don't believe because
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: he's going to do any of what he's saying with
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: The Supreme. COURT i want to be, clear why would
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: he be saying this now and being so, radical because
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: he's trying to get every single minority and every single
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: person In california to be, clear that has an illegal
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: immigrant friend or colleague that they, know he wants to
• 20:16
  Speaker 1: make sure that they.
• 20:19
  Speaker 2: Vote for. Him this is about buying.

  Speaker 1: Votes so you go out there and you tell people
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: that you're going to do something that in all, reality
• 20:27
  Speaker 1: you're probably not going to be able to. Do you
• 20:31
  Speaker 1: go out there and you promise something that you're probably
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: not gonna have to.
• 20:35
  Speaker 2: Really pay off.
• 20:36
  Speaker 1: On a lot of this reminds me by the way
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: Of mandani In New York. City, right what did he,
• 20:41
  Speaker 1: say if you vote for, me bussing is going to be.

• 21:11
  Speaker 1: Lie it's not actually. Happening the way it was before
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: and the and so not only did he lie, there
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: but he lied for one main.
• 21:19
  Speaker 2: Reason he lied to get.
• 21:21
  Speaker 1: Elected you promise people free, transportation, right which is honestly
• 21:26
  Speaker 1: very valuable In New York. CITY a lot of people
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: don't have cars, there the majority PEOPLE i know that
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: don't have a, car and so they rely on public.
• 21:32
  Speaker 1: Transportations so telling him it's going to be, free you
• 21:34
  Speaker 1: can buy votes that. Way he knew he couldn't afford
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: to do, it it didn't. Matter apparently he just did it.
