Transcript
- 0:01Speaker 1: The federal government has come out and is warning now
- 0:04Speaker 1: that Hamas and Hez block could be crossing into America
- 0:09Speaker 1: using the southern border. And I need you to do
- 0:13Speaker 1: me a favor. Please share this on your social media
- 0:16Speaker 1: accounts so you can hit that little Ford arrow, because
- 0:20Speaker 1: what we're covering today, especially with this threat to this
- 0:22Speaker 1: country from terrorists coming across the border, is completely being
- 0:26Speaker 1: covered up by the media. So if you want to
- 0:30Speaker 1: get in the fight, I need you to hit share
- 0:32Speaker 1: and share this wherever you are on social media. I
- 0:35Speaker 1: want you to hear what they said about this on
- 0:38Speaker 1: Fox And I'm going to talk about this a lot
- 0:40Speaker 1: more coming up, but first listen to this from the
- 0:42Speaker 1: White House Peter Doocy outside.
- 0:44Speaker 2: But the Intel Arm of CBP has a new bulletin
- 0:47Speaker 2: out and the headline is pretty alarming. It says, in
- 0:49Speaker 2: bold letters right at the top, foreign fighters of Israel
- 0:53Speaker 2: Hamas conflicts may be encountered at southwest border. The Daily
- 0:56Speaker 2: Caller got a copy of this material. It was distributed
- 0:59Speaker 2: three days ago, and it's about Hamas Hezblah or Islamic
- 1:02Speaker 2: Jehad fighters exploiting the poorest.
- 1:04Speaker 3: Border to get into the US.
- 1:06Speaker 2: Part of the concern is that terrorists can see a
- 1:09Speaker 2: ton of traffic down there. One rather, the new number
- 1:12Speaker 2: is two point four eight million encounters in a fiscal year,
- 1:15Speaker 2: and among them at least one hundred and seventy two
- 1:17Speaker 2: people from the terror watch list. That is one hundred
- 1:20Speaker 2: and seventy two who actually came face to face with
- 1:22Speaker 2: law enforcement and didn't get away.
- 1:25Speaker 3: That's what didn't get away.
- 1:26Speaker 1: Now, let me just say this real quick, and I'm
- 1:28Speaker 1: going to dive in this more in a moment, but
- 1:29Speaker 1: I also want to deal with an issue in Israel.
- 1:32Speaker 1: You look at the terrorist watch list encounters at the
- 1:35Speaker 1: southern border. Okay, in the physical year twenty nineteen, we
- 1:41Speaker 1: caught three people on the terrorists watch list. In twenty twenty,
- 1:45Speaker 1: again Dumbald Trump was the president, another three that were
- 1:48Speaker 1: on the terrorists watch list. Then Joe Biden becomes president
- 1:52Speaker 1: twenty twenty one, as he started to open up the border,
- 1:55Speaker 1: the number went from three to the year before to
- 1:58Speaker 1: sixteen people next year that were caught.
- 2:01Speaker 3: On the terrace watch list.
- 2:03Speaker 1: Fast forward from twenty twenty one to twenty twenty two,
- 2:06Speaker 1: with a wide open border, ninety eight people were caught
- 2:10Speaker 1: at the southern border. That were on the Terrace watch list,
- 2:14Speaker 1: and then for the physical year twenty twenty three, which
- 2:17Speaker 1: has not ended yet, the number of terrafts that have
- 2:21Speaker 1: been caught crossing the Southern border that on the Terrists
- 2:23Speaker 1: watch list is one hundred and seventy two. Now, there's
- 2:27Speaker 1: one aspect of this. You need to understand the terrafts.
- 2:31Speaker 1: If you're on a terrorists watch list, you are not
- 2:33Speaker 1: trying to turn yourself into border patrol like normal illegal
- 2:37Speaker 1: immigrants who are coming across the border. If you know
- 2:40Speaker 1: that you are a rapist, right, a convicted child molester,
- 2:44Speaker 1: you're an MS thirteen gang member with markings different things
- 2:48Speaker 1: like that, or even a murderer, you are trying to
- 2:51Speaker 1: go undetected. You want to be a god away sneaking
- 2:55Speaker 1: into this country. Imagine how many godaways that are on
- 2:59Speaker 1: the terrafs watch lists have come across the border that
- 3:01Speaker 1: we have not caught, knowing that we've at least caught
- 3:04Speaker 1: one hundred and seventy two so far this year. Compare
- 3:08Speaker 1: that to when Donald Trump was the president. It was
- 3:12Speaker 1: three people this time, one hundred and seventy two this year,
- 3:15Speaker 1: ninety eight last year, and sixteen the year before that.
- 3:19Speaker 1: Joe Biden is putting all of our lives at risk
- 3:23Speaker 1: right now in this country with the makings of another
- 3:27Speaker 1: terrorist attack on this country. Now, I'm going to deal
- 3:30Speaker 1: with this more coming up in a moment, but I
- 3:32Speaker 1: also want to get you two other things that you need.
- 3:35Speaker 1: Number one, the Speaker's race. All right, where are we
- 3:38Speaker 1: with the speaker's race. It's a question that so many
- 3:41Speaker 1: of you have been reaching out on social media asking me. Look,
- 3:45Speaker 1: right now, we are no closer to the Speaker of
- 3:47Speaker 1: the House than we were a few days ago.
- 3:49Speaker 3: In fact, we were actually closer.
- 3:50Speaker 1: I would to be accurate a few days ago because
- 3:53Speaker 1: we had one person running. Now we've got what is it,
- 3:56Speaker 1: eight people that are saying they want to be the
- 3:58Speaker 1: Speaker of the House. You have a bunch of people
- 4:01Speaker 1: that are like I would love to become speaker. This
- 4:04Speaker 1: is turning into a disaster, all because we're being held
- 4:08Speaker 1: hostage by a bunch of crazies in the Republican movement
- 4:12Speaker 1: that are obsessed with being famous on social media.
- 4:15Speaker 3: I go back to him, he got rid of Kevin McCarthy.
- 4:18Speaker 1: You look at Matt Gates, and I warned you as
- 4:21Speaker 1: nicely as I could say it that this could turn
- 4:23Speaker 1: into a disaster because Matt Gates was saying, i hate
- 4:27Speaker 1: Kevin McCarthy, and I'm going to make sure he doesn't
- 4:29Speaker 1: get to have the job at he wants, and that
- 4:32Speaker 1: is Speaker of the House.
- 4:33Speaker 3: And he got rid of him.
- 4:34Speaker 1: The problem was he had no plan on who he
- 4:36Speaker 1: was going to replace him, with no continuity of who
- 4:39Speaker 1: they were going to surround themselves with when they got
- 4:42Speaker 1: rid of Kevin McCarthy.
- 4:44Speaker 3: This is only.
- 4:45Speaker 1: Helping the Democratic Party at this point. Now, to be clear,
- 4:48Speaker 1: I'm not saying we compromise and put in some crappy
- 4:51Speaker 1: Republican either. What I'm saying is this plan was stupid
- 4:55Speaker 1: from the very beginning. If you're gonna get rid of McCarthy,
- 4:59Speaker 1: you should have known who you were going to replace
- 5:01Speaker 1: them with when you did it, not just to settle
- 5:03Speaker 1: a personal score between you, right and Speaker McCarthy. This
- 5:11Speaker 1: was a selfish decision from the very beginning. So now
- 5:15Speaker 1: we've got five, six, seven, eight different people that want
- 5:19Speaker 1: to become the speaker. We are no closer to getting
- 5:21Speaker 1: a speaker than we were before, and this is turning
- 5:24Speaker 1: into a nightmare.
- 5:25Speaker 3: The Republicans need to get their heads out of the
- 5:27Speaker 3: ear in.
- 5:28Speaker 1: And I'm referring to those small group, the two percent
- 5:31Speaker 1: out of the one hundred percent of the Republican Party
- 5:34Speaker 1: in the House that need to get their heads out
- 5:37Speaker 1: of the rear in and realize that they are destroying
- 5:39Speaker 1: this country by doing this and the chance of the
- 5:41Speaker 1: Republicans actually being able to govern. Democrats are going to
- 5:47Speaker 1: use this, make no mistake about it, and they are
- 5:50Speaker 1: going to look at voters. They're going to say, look
- 5:53Speaker 1: at your Republican Party. Even when you give them majority,
- 5:56Speaker 1: they don't know how to govern. It is a problem.
- 5:59Speaker 1: I'm going to say it again, it is a problem.
- 6:01Speaker 1: We need to get our act together. We need to
- 6:04Speaker 1: do everything that we can to focus on finding a
- 6:09Speaker 1: Speaker of the House that we can agree to. And
- 6:11Speaker 1: this is the reason why you don't jump on these
- 6:14Speaker 1: bandwagons with these extreme Republicans, and that's what they are,
- 6:18Speaker 1: who want to blow everything up with no plan on
- 6:20Speaker 1: how to put it back together. This is why I
- 6:23Speaker 1: said I was very concerned about getting rid of Kevin
- 6:26Speaker 1: McCarthy because if you're getting rid of them and you
- 6:28Speaker 1: don't have a plan on how to replace them, and
- 6:30Speaker 1: you can't get a guy like Jims Jordan's elected, What
- 6:33Speaker 1: the hell are we doing here? Then that's part of
- 6:36Speaker 1: the problem. Now there's also something else, and that deals
- 6:40Speaker 1: with Israel, and I want to deal with this real quick.
- 6:43Speaker 1: Israel right now, he's under attack from the media full stop.
- 6:48Speaker 1: The media is trying to do everything they can to
- 6:50Speaker 1: undermine them taking out Hamas. Okay, want to be very clear.
- 6:56Speaker 1: Scott Kirby today was called out when he was asked
- 7:01Speaker 1: a question about humanitarian aid that has already been reportedly
- 7:06Speaker 1: diverted to Hamas, the terrorists organization that is going after
- 7:11Speaker 1: and trying to kill every Israeli human being they can
- 7:14Speaker 1: get their hands on, the same people that have beheaded
- 7:17Speaker 1: infant children and taken Holocaust survivors. Apparently, the humanitarian aid
- 7:23Speaker 1: that's been going into Gods that started earlier yesterday has
- 7:27Speaker 1: already been diverted to AMAS, and the White House, from
- 7:30Speaker 1: what we understand, is lying about it.
- 7:32Speaker 4: Listen carefully on the on the aid portion, How, for instance,
- 7:36Speaker 4: are you going to convince people that this is not
- 7:40Speaker 4: going to get into Hamas's hands when, for instance, you know,
- 7:44Speaker 4: we saw fraud with something like COVID relief money in
- 7:48Speaker 4: the US and we're now talking about.
- 7:52Speaker 5: Securing and understanding with Hamas and the terror group about
- 7:55Speaker 5: how this humanitarian.
- 7:57Speaker 6: Aid should be used.
- 7:59Speaker 4: How can you devince people that that is going to be.
- 8:02Speaker 5: A workwhile necessary and secure of Inteler, We certainly share
- 8:06Speaker 5: concerns about any diversion of humanitarian assistance for Hamas purposes.
- 8:11Speaker 3: I mean, for instance, fuel is a good example.
- 8:13Speaker 5: You know that we know that they need fuel to
- 8:17Speaker 5: be able to.
- 8:18Speaker 3: Electrify and power.
- 8:20Speaker 5: Up their tunnels for instance, you know, keep the lights
- 8:22Speaker 5: on us. And we understand that we're not blind to
- 8:25Speaker 5: the potential concerns here over diversion, which is why Ambassador.
- 8:30Speaker 3: Sadderfield is on the ground.
- 8:32Speaker 5: His whole purpose is to make sure that that humanitarian
- 8:35Speaker 5: assistance can get to the Palestinian people. We have seen
- 8:38Speaker 5: no indications as of today that any of the trucks
- 8:41Speaker 5: that Karee talked about, any of the material instructs have
- 8:44Speaker 5: been diverted to Hamas or been absconded by Hamas. That
- 8:48Speaker 5: in fact, every indication that we have is that it
- 8:50Speaker 5: has in fact gone to the Palestinian people who are
- 8:54Speaker 5: in desperate need for it.
- 8:55Speaker 3: I would remind folks.
- 8:57Speaker 5: That we have trusted partners on the ground humanitarian aid organizations,
- 9:00Speaker 5: and of course the UN Relief Agency is on the ground,
- 9:03Speaker 5: and they very much are taking a personal stake, a
- 9:09Speaker 5: professional personal stake in making sure that that aid is
- 9:11Speaker 5: getting where it's needed.
- 9:14Speaker 3: And we're going to.
- 9:15Speaker 5: Watch it, obviously, we're going to watch this close. We
- 9:17Speaker 5: don't want to see Hamas benefit any more than anybody else.
- 9:20Speaker 1: Does, any more than anybody else does, really, because we're
- 9:24Speaker 1: already getting reports that Hamas has already been able to
- 9:27Speaker 1: grab the humanitarian aid and give it to their fighters.
- 9:31Speaker 1: So you want me to believe now that somehow this
- 9:33Speaker 1: isn't happening. Let me also just go back to the
- 9:35Speaker 1: corruption of the government and put it in perspective on
- 9:37Speaker 1: the border issue again. Customs and Border Patrol waited until
- 9:42Speaker 1: Saturday morning to release the new disastrous border numbers so
- 9:47Speaker 1: that no one would be paying attention. And I want
- 9:50Speaker 1: you to understand what this invasion now looks like. Two
- 9:54Speaker 1: hundred and sixty seven terrorists Okay, two hundred and sixty
- 9:58Speaker 1: seven terrorists across the southern border on the terrorist watch
- 10:02Speaker 1: lists that we've caught doesn't count any of the ones
- 10:04Speaker 1: we didn't get. Eight plus million illegal immigrants since Biden
- 10:11Speaker 1: took office, eight million have.
- 10:15Speaker 3: Come across the southern border.
- 10:18Speaker 1: All right, let me tell you real quick about an
- 10:19Speaker 1: amazing company called Patriot Mobile. For ten years, they have
- 10:23Speaker 1: been America's only Christian conservative wireless provider. And when I
- 10:28Speaker 1: say only trust me, they're the only one. Glenn and

- 10:55Speaker 1: Second Amendment, and our military, our veterans and first responder heroes.

- 11:41Speaker 1: call Patriotmobile dot com slash ferguson or nine seven to
- 11:45Speaker 1: two Patriot. I want to also move real quick to
- 11:50Speaker 1: this warning and go back to understanding just how disastrous
- 11:54Speaker 1: this warning is from Border patrol about known terrorists who
- 11:59Speaker 1: are coming across the southern border. The federal government is
- 12:02Speaker 1: now warning that Hamas and Hezblah could be crossing our
- 12:07Speaker 1: southern border and our threat to our national security. Federal
- 12:13Speaker 1: officials are now warning that members of Hamas Jihadis groups
- 12:18Speaker 1: known as Palestinian Islamic Jihad PIJ and Hezblah could be
- 12:24Speaker 1: exploiting our southern border that is open and could be
- 12:27Speaker 1: crossing through that border. According to an internal October the
- 12:31Speaker 1: twentieth memo, the San Diego Field Office Intelligence Division of
- 12:37Speaker 1: Customs and Border Protection sent the memo warning due to
- 12:41Speaker 1: the war between Israel and Hamas there could be encounters
- 12:44Speaker 1: of terror tied individuals who are seeking to travel to
- 12:49Speaker 1: or from the Middle East via transit across the southern border.
- 12:53Speaker 1: They go on to say Hamas PIJ which stands for
- 12:57Speaker 1: Palestinian Islamic Jihad, and Hesbela, all of which are US
- 13:03Speaker 1: designated terrorist organizations, have been committing attacks on Israel in
- 13:08Speaker 1: a war that began with a surprise attack on hundreds
- 13:11Speaker 1: of innocent people on October the seventh. The San Diego
- 13:14Speaker 1: Field Office Intelligence Unit assesses that individuals inspired by or
- 13:21Speaker 1: reacting to the current Israel Hamas conflict may attempt travel
- 13:27Speaker 1: to or from the area of hostilities in the Middle
- 13:31Speaker 1: East via transit across the southern border. The memo continues.
- 13:39Speaker 1: They then say this in the memo, foreign fighters motivated
- 13:44Speaker 1: by ideology or mercenary soldiers of fortune may attempt to
- 13:54Speaker 1: travel to or from the US to or from countries
- 13:58Speaker 1: in the Middle East through Mexico. The memo ads, before
- 14:03Speaker 1: listing the patches of what to look for of Hamas
- 14:08Speaker 1: of the Palace in Islamic Jihad and or HESBLOH. All
- 14:12Speaker 1: three of their patches are out there saying look for
- 14:15Speaker 1: this amid record illegal immigration at the southern border. Border
- 14:21Speaker 1: patrol has recorded a major influx of encounters of individuals
- 14:25Speaker 1: whose names appear on the terror watch list.
- 14:28Speaker 3: This is what I've been warning you about now for weeks.
- 14:32Speaker 1: Border patrol encounters with illegal aliens who are on the
- 14:36Speaker 1: terrorism watch list at the southern border and the northern
- 14:40Speaker 1: borders hit one hundred and seventy two people in the
- 14:42Speaker 1: fiscal year twenty twenty three.
- 14:45Speaker 3: That is up from ninety eight in twenty twenty two.
- 14:50Speaker 1: The latest warning of possible terrorists encounters say says federal
- 14:55Speaker 1: border authorities should take should look to indicators that include sin,
- 15:00Speaker 1: military age, males, military gear, loan travelers, and ties to
- 15:09Speaker 1: the region. According to the new memos, so they're admitting
- 15:12Speaker 1: that terrorists are coming across our southern border.
- 15:15Speaker 3: The part that I have to go back to here.
- 15:19Speaker 1: Is if you're coming across the border right now on average, Okay,
- 15:25Speaker 1: if you come across the southern border and you're a
- 15:29Speaker 1: normal illegal immigrant, you go and find border patrol agents
- 15:36Speaker 1: to turn yourself in.
- 15:37Speaker 3: Okay, that's number one.
- 15:40Speaker 1: If you are trying to get across the border and
- 15:43Speaker 1: you know you're on a watch list, that you are
- 15:46Speaker 1: a terrorist on a Terrace watch list. That's when the
- 15:51Speaker 1: game changes drastically. You are not trying to get caught
- 15:55Speaker 1: the southern border. You are one of those that's going
- 15:57Speaker 1: to run. You're trying to get away from the border.
- 16:00Speaker 3: You're going to do.
- 16:01Speaker 1: Everything you can to make sure that the border is
- 16:05Speaker 1: not border patrol doesn't grab you because you know that
- 16:08Speaker 1: you're on the terrace watch list. So if we have caught, okay,
- 16:14Speaker 1: one hundred and seventy two people who are on this list,
- 16:21Speaker 1: how many got through that we didn't catch that are
- 16:24Speaker 1: on the list. Remember, if you're on the terrorists watch list,
- 16:26Speaker 1: you're not trying to turn yourself into border patrol like
- 16:28Speaker 1: all these other illegal immigrants. Right now, illegal immigrants come
- 16:31Speaker 1: across the border are running to border patrol agents.
- 16:34Speaker 3: They're running to the authorities.
- 16:36Speaker 1: They desperately want to be caught because then they get
- 16:40Speaker 1: all the free stuff, they get the flight, they get
- 16:43Speaker 1: any they get to go wherever they want to go. Now,
- 16:47Speaker 1: I was fine the other day to New York City
- 16:49Speaker 1: and next to me was a illegal immigrant. That illegal
- 16:53Speaker 1: immigrant has his Red Cross blanket. That illegal immigrant had
- 16:56Speaker 1: his quote.
- 16:57Speaker 3: Packet with him and that package.
- 17:00Speaker 1: So you understand is the packet saying basically, welcome to America.
- 17:06Speaker 1: It's like checking in at a conference. I'm not joking, Okay,
- 17:11Speaker 1: it's like checking in at a conference and they give
- 17:13Speaker 1: you your welcome packet. It's like, thanks for being here
- 17:16Speaker 1: at the you know, YadA YadA YadA. We can't you know,
- 17:19Speaker 1: here's your welcome papers, your welcome packet. That's what they
- 17:22Speaker 1: give illegal immigrants. That's why they're not running from border patrol.
- 17:26Speaker 1: They're running too border patrol. Now, the godaways are the
- 17:31Speaker 1: people that are running away from border patrol, those that
- 17:34Speaker 1: are crossing not wanting to be detected. Those are the
- 17:38Speaker 1: people that are harder to catch.
- 17:40Speaker 3: Okay. And if you're harder to catch, what does that mean.
- 17:44Speaker 1: It means that many times you're going to be more
- 17:46Speaker 1: successful at not being detected when you come across the
- 17:49Speaker 1: southern border.
- 17:50Speaker 3: Okay, that's number one.
- 17:53Speaker 1: It's incredibly frustrating when you find out that there's one
- 17:55Speaker 1: hundred and seventy two people that were purposely.
- 17:58Speaker 3: Trying to not get caught.
- 18:01Speaker 1: Okay, they're running from border patrol, not running two border patrol.
- 18:06Speaker 1: And it's incredibly frustrating when you hear that there's this
- 18:10Speaker 1: many people running from border patrol, Okay, running from border
- 18:17Speaker 1: patrol who are on the terrorists watch list. This administration
- 18:24Speaker 1: knows that our southern border right now is a problem.
- 18:27Speaker 1: And it's not a problem just from a legal immigration standpoint,
- 18:30Speaker 1: is a problem now clearly on an issue of national
- 18:35Speaker 1: security from terrorism. If there is a terrorist attack in
- 18:39Speaker 1: the United States of America, and there are many now,
- 18:41Speaker 1: they're concerned that we are on the brink of having
- 18:43Speaker 1: another one.
- 18:45Speaker 3: We've done a.
- 18:45Speaker 1: Great job since nine to eleven, and then we screwed
- 18:47Speaker 1: it all up with a wide open southern border. Then
- 18:50Speaker 1: if it happens, we're going to find out that it
- 18:52Speaker 1: was preventable more than likely because we could have had
- 18:56Speaker 1: a secure border.
- 18:58Speaker 3: Look where they're known terrorists we're trying to get in
- 19:00Speaker 3: this country. Absolutely.
- 19:01Speaker 1: When Donald Trump was president, the difference was we were
- 19:05Speaker 1: catching them because we didn't have this onslaught and this
- 19:08Speaker 1: massive inflect of illegal immigrants and more people that these
- 19:11Speaker 1: terrorists can basically blend in with when they're coming across
- 19:16Speaker 1: the southern border. That's the difference. That's the part that
- 19:20Speaker 1: people need to understand. It's incredibly frustrating when you witness
- 19:26Speaker 1: the way that they're describing it and the game plan
- 19:30Speaker 1: and knowing that we're not doing anything to stop it.
- 19:34Speaker 1: I want to bring in United States centator Ted Kruz.
- 19:37Speaker 1: He is the co host of with Me on his podcast,
- 19:40Speaker 1: A Verdict with Ted Cruz, and I want you to
- 19:42Speaker 1: hear what he had to say about this threat to
- 19:46Speaker 1: our country because of this open border and specifically now
- 19:50Speaker 1: what we know about terrorists coming across.
- 19:53Speaker 3: Let's talk about the border center.
- 19:54Speaker 1: There is a new warning, a federal warning that Maas
- 20:00Speaker 1: and Hesbelock could be crossing the southern border. Federal officials
- 20:04Speaker 1: are warning that members of these terrorist groups of Hamas
- 20:10Speaker 1: and Jihadis and Hesblock could be crossing through the southern border,
- 20:13Speaker 1: according to an internal October the twentieth memo that's now
- 20:17Speaker 1: been obtained exclusively by The Daily Caller.
- 20:20Speaker 3: Your reaction to this.
- 20:22Speaker 6: Well, this is a story that broke on Sunday from
- 20:25Speaker 6: the Daily Caller and this is a memo that came
- 20:28Speaker 6: from the San Diego Field Office Intelligence Division of Customs
- 20:32Speaker 6: and Border Patrol. And the memo warns that due to
- 20:36Speaker 6: the war between Israel and Hamas, there could be encounters
- 20:39Speaker 6: of terroritied individuals who are seeking to travel to or
- 20:43Speaker 6: from the Middle East across the southern border. And in particular,
- 20:48Speaker 6: they specify Hamas, they specify Palestinian Islamic Jihad, they specify Hesbela,
- 20:54Speaker 6: all of which are designated by the United States terrorist organizations,
- 20:58Speaker 6: and all of which have been committing attacks on Israel
- 21:02Speaker 6: since the war began on October seventh.
- 21:04Speaker 3: And here's what the memo says.
- 21:05Speaker 6: Quote San Diego Field Office Intelligence Unit assesses that individuals
- 21:11Speaker 6: inspired by or reacting to the current Israel Hamas conflict
- 21:17Speaker 6: may attempt travel to or from the areas of hostilities
- 21:21Speaker 6: in the Middle East via circuitous transit across the southwest border.
- 21:27Speaker 6: The memo continues, quote, foreign fighters motivated by ideology or
- 21:33Speaker 6: mercenary soldiers of fortune may attempt to obfuscape travel two
- 21:39Speaker 6: or from the US or two or from countries in
- 21:41Speaker 6: the Middle East through Mexico. And the memo then lists
- 21:47Speaker 6: the patches the insignia of Hamas, of Palestinian Islamic Jihad,
- 21:53Speaker 6: and of Hesbola.
- 21:57Speaker 1: You look at this coming from the San Diego Field Office,
- 22:00Speaker 1: and you think, how is this not something that's being
- 22:04Speaker 1: briefed by to everyone. I would assume like major important announcement.
- 22:09Speaker 1: Why wouldn't they want this to go public? Why does
- 22:12Speaker 1: it have to come out the way that it is
- 22:14Speaker 1: you would think it would be. This would be a
- 22:16Speaker 1: perfect example of hey, if you see something, say something.
- 22:20Speaker 1: We had that ingrained in Americans after nine to eleven.
- 22:22Speaker 1: It obviously helps save lives after nine to eleven. See
- 22:26Speaker 1: if you see something, say something, for example, that bomber
- 22:29Speaker 1: that we were going to have at times square that work.
- 22:31Speaker 1: Then if you see something, say something. And yet it's
- 22:34Speaker 1: like this administration doesn't want to admit there's a problem
- 22:37Speaker 1: at the southern border with it being wide open, so
- 22:40Speaker 1: let's just downplay it.
- 22:42Speaker 6: Well, this administration consistently hides its own role in making
- 22:46Speaker 6: America less safe, making the world less safe. So this
- 22:49Speaker 6: administration does everything they can to cover up the fact
- 22:53Speaker 6: that they have flowed nearly one hundred billion dollars to Iran,
- 22:58Speaker 6: which is funding this war and Israel. They do everything
- 23:01Speaker 6: they can to cover up the fact that they've sent
- 23:03Speaker 6: hundreds of millions of dollars to Gaza, which in their
- 23:06Speaker 6: own internal assessment they said was highly likely to go
- 23:10Speaker 6: to Hamas for them to carry out terror activity. And
- 23:13Speaker 6: of course, what's their answer once this war begins, Joe
- 23:17Speaker 6: Biden goes on national television and proposes to send hundreds
- 23:21Speaker 6: of millions more to Gaza that will end up again
- 23:25Speaker 6: in the hands of Hamas terrorists.
- 23:26Speaker 3: That's their approach.
- 23:27Speaker 6: They likewise accept zero responsibility for the chaos of the
- 23:32Speaker 6: Southern border, and they do not acknowledge that it makes
- 23:36Speaker 6: America less safe. You look at this memo that was
- 23:40Speaker 6: sent out on the twentieth, It lists several quote questions
- 23:44Speaker 6: of interest, such as questions related to the individual's personal
- 23:50Speaker 6: or familials, associations with Hamas, with Hesbola, with Palestinian Islamic Jihad,
- 23:56Speaker 6: or with the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palace
- 24:00Speaker 6: Stein or other similar groups. Now, as the memo is
- 24:05Speaker 6: rightly noting, if you're a terrorist crossing the Southern border,
- 24:09Speaker 6: you want to obscure that fact. You want to hide
- 24:12Speaker 6: that fact because if you're coming here, there's a very
- 24:15Speaker 6: real possibility you're coming here to commit acts of terror.
- 24:18Speaker 6: And so I want to underscore something I've said on
- 24:20Speaker 6: this podcast previously. I believe we are at a greater
- 24:24Speaker 6: risk for a major terrorist attack in the United States
- 24:28Speaker 6: today than we have been any time since September eleventh,
- 24:32Speaker 6: and the Biden administration's policies continue to make that more
- 24:37Speaker 6: and more likely each and every day.
- 24:39Speaker 1: Let me ask you the logistics of you being in
- 24:42Speaker 1: the Senate and do you guys get briefed on the
- 24:45Speaker 1: regular or do you have to ask for briefings when
- 24:49Speaker 1: it comes to issues like this or is this something
- 24:51Speaker 1: they purposely want to keep members of Congress in the
- 24:54Speaker 1: dark on.
- 24:55Speaker 6: Well, we had last week at extensive classified briefing on
- 24:59Speaker 6: Israel and on the war that is playing out there,
- 25:01Speaker 6: and that featured senior officials from the Department Offense, from Intelligence,
- 25:07Speaker 6: from State laying out their view in terms of what
- 25:11Speaker 6: was happening in that classified briefing. Obviously, I can't discuss
- 25:15Speaker 6: the details of what was said, but what was said
- 25:18Speaker 6: is consistent with what they have been saying publicly over
- 25:21Speaker 6: and over again, which is they're trying to downplay Iran's
- 25:25Speaker 6: culpability here. The Wall Street Journal has reported that Iran
- 25:29Speaker 6: planned this attack, funded this attack, and directed this attack,
- 25:33Speaker 6: and the Biden administration is desperate to avoid anyone knowing
- 25:38Speaker 6: that because the obvious conclusion from that is that, We'll
- 25:41Speaker 6: wait a second, If Iran is the one driving this attack,
- 25:45Speaker 6: why is the Biden Administration's Iran's principal financier.
- 25:50Speaker 3: They don't want that question.
- 25:52Speaker 6: So even in these classified briefings, they are spinning like crazy.
- 25:56Speaker 1: You mentioned funding a moment ago, and I do think
- 25:58Speaker 1: this ties back to it.
- 26:00Speaker 3: You look at Biden's requests for Congress.
- 26:02Speaker 1: It included fourteen billion for Israel and then sixty billion
- 26:08Speaker 1: for Ukraine. Ten billion for general humanitarian aid. I'm not
- 26:13Speaker 1: really sure what that means. Seven billion for a No Pacific,
- 26:18Speaker 1: one hundred million for Gaza, fourteen billion to process illegals
- 26:24Speaker 1: faster at the border. That doesn't mean we're going to
- 26:25Speaker 1: secure the border. It just means we're going to let
- 26:27Speaker 1: them come into this country and process them faster. This
- 26:31Speaker 1: is what the President said. You have to agree to
- 26:34Speaker 1: almost holding the American taxpayer's hostage to get the funding
- 26:39Speaker 1: that's desperately needed to support Israel our ally, and all
- 26:43Speaker 1: of this other stuff comes in at higher dollar amounts
- 26:47Speaker 1: Ukraine sixty billion but just fourteen for Israel. Is this
- 26:51Speaker 1: dead on arrival and the Senators just have a good
- 26:53Speaker 1: chance of moving through his request.
- 26:56Speaker 6: Well, understand what Joe Biden is doing and what Chuck
- 26:59Speaker 6: Schuber is doing. They both know that military assistance for
- 27:03Speaker 6: Israel has enormous bipartisan support, so they are deliberately trying
- 27:09Speaker 6: to hold Israel military assistance hostage to try to pass
- 27:15Speaker 6: their other priorities. They know that there are significant concerns
- 27:19Speaker 6: in Congress about Ukraine funding, about it going to internal corruption,
- 27:23Speaker 6: about it not being well spent, about the administration funding
- 27:27Speaker 6: both sides of the war, funding Ukraine on the one
- 27:30Speaker 6: hand and flowing billions of dollars to Iran on the
- 27:33Speaker 6: other when Iran is producing drones that Russia is using
- 27:36Speaker 6: to fight the Ukrainian Army. And they don't want to
- 27:38Speaker 6: try to get the votes through on the merits. They
- 27:40Speaker 6: don't want to actually convince Congress about Ukraine funding, so
- 27:46Speaker 6: they're trying to tie it to Israel funding to force
- 27:49Speaker 6: every member of Congress to say, well, if you want
- 27:52Speaker 6: to vote against Israel funding, be my guest, or else
- 27:55Speaker 6: you got to fund everything else we want. And I'll
- 27:57Speaker 6: tell you the most cynical element that they include in
- 28:01Speaker 6: this package is what they call border security funding. And
- 28:06Speaker 6: the reason that's cynical is because they don't actually propose
- 28:09Speaker 6: to do anything to secure the border. They don't actually
- 28:11Speaker 6: propose to stop the Hamas or Hezbala terrorists from coming
- 28:15Speaker 6: across the border. What they want instead is additional money
- 28:20Speaker 6: to process illegal immigrants more quickly, to put more illegal
- 28:25Speaker 6: aliens on buses and planes, and to send them even
- 28:28Speaker 6: faster to every city in America. They call that border security,
- 28:32Speaker 6: and they say, well, if you want to support Israel,
- 28:35Speaker 6: you got to fund exacerbating accelerating the southern border crisis.
- 28:41Speaker 6: It is profoundly cynical. It is wrong. What I think
- 28:45Speaker 6: we ought to do, Ben, is we ought to vote
- 28:47Speaker 6: on a clean military aid package for Israel. If we
- 28:50Speaker 6: did that, it would pass with overwhelming bipartisan support. Biden
- 28:55Speaker 6: knows that Schumer knows that. That's why they don't want
- 28:57Speaker 6: to do it.
- 28:58Speaker 1: Do me a favor, Please make sure that you share
- 29:01Speaker 1: this podcast with your family and your friends on social
- 29:04Speaker 1: media today. This is an important one. People need to
- 29:07Speaker 1: understand what's happening and with our national security. It needs
- 29:11Speaker 1: to be this needs to be a conversation that has
- 29:14Speaker 1: had over and over again so people understand the real threat.
- 29:19Speaker 1: Share it wherever you get your podcasts, and I'll see
- 29:22Speaker 1: you back here tomorrow
