0:01
Speaker 1: Welcome.
0:01
Speaker 2: It is Verdict with Center, Ted Cruz, Ben Ferguson with
0:04
Speaker 2: you as always and center.
0:05
Speaker 1: I hate to say it, but we were right.
0:07
Speaker 2: These protests have now organically the left one you believe,
0:12
Speaker 2: just started all over the country. We're in what twenty
0:15
Speaker 2: plus states now, and this looks like the Summer of rage,
0:18
Speaker 2: the same thing we saw with the big summer Black
0:20
Speaker 2: Lives Matter.
0:21
Speaker 1: Everything's peaceful, we just burn down and loud a bunch
0:23
Speaker 1: of stuff.
0:24
Speaker 3: Well, America tragically is a flame, and as we predicted,
0:28
Speaker 3: the la riots have now spread across the country coast
0:31
Speaker 3: to coast. This is organized, this is paid for. This
0:35
Speaker 3: is the new Summer of love. This is the left.
0:39
Speaker 3: They want these riots. Democrats are celebrating these riots, and
0:43
Speaker 3: this is who they stand for. They are for violence,
0:46
Speaker 3: they are for illegal immigration, they are for open borders,
0:48
Speaker 3: they are for looting, and they are cheering it all on.
0:52
Speaker 3: We're going to take you all across the country walk
0:54
Speaker 3: through what's happening and where this is going.
0:58
Speaker 2: Yeah, it is truly shocking what is happening, and we're
1:00
Speaker 2: going to break it all down for you as it
1:02
Speaker 2: is continuing to develop very quickly. Before we get to
1:05
Speaker 2: that I want to just say, now is the time
1:08
Speaker 2: for so many Americans to stand up with our friends
1:12
Speaker 2: in Israel. And what we are seeing right now is
1:15
Speaker 2: truly disturbing. Anti Semitism, unfortunately, is on the rise, not
1:19
Speaker 2: just around the world, but right here in America. We
1:23
Speaker 2: have seen Jewish schools that are being targeted, We've seen
1:25
Speaker 2: synagogues that have been threatened.
1:27
Speaker 1: Families are truly living in fear.
1:29
Speaker 2: I was talking this morning with a friend of mine
1:33
Speaker 2: who is Jewish, and he said, this is something that
1:35
Speaker 2: he has not seen in his lifetime in America. Just
1:39
Speaker 2: how bad the anti Semitism right now. And that's why
1:42
Speaker 2: this is our moment to take a stand, and I
1:45
Speaker 2: want you to stand by helping the International.
1:48
Speaker 1: Fellowship of Christians and Jews.
1:50
Speaker 2: They are on the front lines providing real help where
1:52
Speaker 2: it's needed most. They're giving food and shelter to Jewish
1:56
Speaker 2: families under threat, building bomb shelters for children. They're helping
2:01
Speaker 2: survivors of hate rebuild their lives. And they don't just
2:05
Speaker 2: respond to the crisis, they work every day to actually
2:07
Speaker 2: prevent them from happening. Now they're asking for a simple
2:11
Speaker 2: gift of forty five dollars and that's going to help
2:14
Speaker 2: support life saving work like providing food and shelter in
2:18
Speaker 2: so much more so, if you are wanting to stand
2:22
Speaker 2: with the people in Israel and really make a difference,
2:24
Speaker 2: this is an incredible way of doing it. Supporting the
2:27
Speaker 2: IFCJ is a spiritual stand. It's showing up for God's
2:30
Speaker 2: people when it counts. You can call them and get
2:32
Speaker 2: involved eight to eight four eight eight IFCJ that's eight
2:37
Speaker 2: eight eight four eight eight four three two five. Or
2:41
Speaker 2: go to IFCJ dot org. That's IFCJ dot org. Every
2:46
Speaker 2: dollar helps the people in Israel be the difference IFCJ
2:50
Speaker 2: dot org. So, Senator you and I said this on
2:53
Speaker 2: this show a couple of days ago, that this was
2:56
Speaker 2: clearly gonna be something that was premeditated and pre planned
2:59
Speaker 2: and was spread across the country. They acted like I
3:03
Speaker 2: was an insane person when I said this on CNN
3:05
Speaker 2: last night and everybody started yelling at me. I'm like,
3:07
Speaker 2: you watch it's gonna happen. Now, we're in twenty plus states.
3:11
Speaker 3: We're right well, as of when we're recording, we have
3:15
Speaker 3: seen riots and protests for illegal immigration breakout, not just
3:22
Speaker 3: in LA but in San Francisco, sant Ana, Sacramento, in Phoenix, Houston,
3:29
Speaker 3: San Antonio, Austin, Dallas, in Seattle, and Portland in Salt
3:35
Speaker 3: Lake City and Detroit, in Hartford, Connecticut, and Boston, in Philadelphia,
3:40
Speaker 3: in Atlanta, in Baltimore, in New York City and Washington,
3:43
Speaker 3: d C. And Tampa, in Jacksonville, in Raleigh, and in Louisville.
3:48
Speaker 3: That is not simply organic. There is money and by
3:53
Speaker 3: the way, we are seeing supplies arriving at these events.
3:58
Speaker 3: This is this. This is the same agenda that was
4:02
Speaker 3: behind the Black Lives Matter and the ANTIFA riots across
4:06
Speaker 3: the country. They're paid for, whether it is George Soros
4:10
Speaker 3: or other anti American leftists who hate this country, who
4:14
Speaker 3: want violence and are funding it. And this is virtually
4:18
Speaker 3: every one of those cities is controlled by Democrats, and
4:23
Speaker 3: the democrats in those cities in many instances are complicit
4:28
Speaker 3: and are cheering them on. And understand this is also
4:33
Speaker 3: openly embracing criminality. This is openly embracing I want you
4:38
Speaker 3: to listen to the owner of a family owned jewelry
4:43
Speaker 3: store in Los Angeles with it with tears in his
4:47
Speaker 3: eyes after looters had destroyed his family business.
4:50
Speaker 2: Get a listen and remember, don't forget they'd said that
4:53
Speaker 2: it was all peaceful.
4:55
Speaker 4: Earlier.
4:55
Speaker 5: We were at the Apple store, we were at the
4:57
Speaker 5: Adidas store.
4:58
Speaker 4: Both of them looted.
5:00
Speaker 5: The glass shattered, a lot of things stolen. And they're
5:03
Speaker 5: big companies, they'll take a hit.
5:05
Speaker 4: But it is the.
5:06
Speaker 5: Small, the mom and pop businesses that have also been
5:11

5:45
Speaker 4: A small business owner is a lot of people.

6:48
Speaker 5: up to one hundred looters at a time at a
6:51
Speaker 5: jewelry business.
6:52
Speaker 4: Crazy, very crazy, very sod, very terrible. And your dad
6:56
Speaker 4: works really hard. I'm sure you work really hard too.
6:59
Speaker 5: This is a small family owned business and there's no insurance, no, no,
7:04
Speaker 5: how is this going to affect your family?
7:06
Speaker 4: Really really bad. People are stupid. People are stupid. What
7:11

7:15
Speaker 4: to do with any of this. I know, I know,
7:18
Speaker 4: I don't know why. I'm sorry, Sheila. I'm sorry.
7:21

7:41
Speaker 5: Your business was one of many businesses that were looted overnight.
7:46
Speaker 6: But I know jewelry. I felt like a custom jewelry thin.
7:50
Speaker 6: But you know I'm not the big guy, not a
7:53
Speaker 6: big fish.
7:54
Speaker 4: You're not a big fish.
7:55
Speaker 5: Well that's why it hurts even more because you're not
7:58
Speaker 5: a big fish. You're not Apple, you're not ad and
8:00
Speaker 5: they're going to take a loss too. I'm so sorry
8:03
Speaker 5: for this multiple businesses. There were many arrests made. Were
8:07
Speaker 5: waiting to get those numbers from the LAPD.
8:10
Speaker 1: Now let's just be clear.
8:12
Speaker 2: I can't believe you said there's many arrests because this
8:14
Speaker 2: is all peaceful center and by the way, where a
8:16
Speaker 2: lot of this looting was happening. This was not where
8:19
Speaker 2: there were actual protests. It's just full blown looting in riots.
8:23
Speaker 1: Yeah.
8:23
Speaker 3: Look, this is criminality, which is Look and that's what
8:25
Speaker 3: happened during the Black Lives Matter and Antifa riots is
8:28
Speaker 3: that criminals are unchained and they loot often small businesses.
8:34
Speaker 3: You know, you listen to the daughter. They're saying, people
8:36
Speaker 3: are stupid, But what can you do, Well, what you
8:38
Speaker 3: can do is arrest them. What you can do is
8:40
Speaker 3: allow law enforcement to do their jobs, put them in handcuffs,
8:44
Speaker 3: put them in jail. And tragically they're in LA, and
8:49
Speaker 3: in LA they won't let them do that. Listen to
8:52
Speaker 3: another Los Angeles business owner on the looters.
8:54
Speaker 7: This is so ridicultos. This It doesn't look like this
8:57
Speaker 7: is the protesting for ice or anything. This is that
9:00
Speaker 7: they're doing just for the looting the stores and everything.
9:03
Speaker 7: I saw.
9:03
Speaker 9: They break into the Apple store, they break into the
9:05
Speaker 9: Editor store.
9:06
Speaker 7: This is not they're doing for TIS.
9:09
Speaker 2: What's interesting about what he said is the story came
9:12
Speaker 2: out later. This is a legal immigrant who is criticizing
9:17
Speaker 2: the illegal immigrants and those that are eluding. He is saying,
9:21
Speaker 2: I want law and order and I want there to
9:23
Speaker 2: be protection in LA.
9:26
Speaker 3: Well, that's exactly right. And the citizens of LA and
9:29
Speaker 3: the citizens of California are being abandoned and and and
9:33
Speaker 3: they're being abandoned deliberately by Gavin Newsom and by elected
9:36
Speaker 3: Democrats here. I want you to listen to to sheriff
9:39
Speaker 3: Chad Bianco, who is the sheriff in Riverside County in California.
9:44
Speaker 3: Listen to what he has to say about about these
9:46
Speaker 3: rioters and about Gavin Newsom's responsibility for what they're doing.
9:51
Speaker 10: Really appalled that we are at this point in society
9:56
Speaker 10: where people come out and think that this is okay,
9:58
Speaker 10: and then it makes it one hundred times worse when
10:02
Speaker 10: you have politicians that are encouraging it, that are not
10:06
Speaker 10: calling it what it is, which is criminal activity, the
10:10
Speaker 10: lying to all of us, lying to the media, and
10:12
Speaker 10: purposely using the word peaceful while maybe they should look
10:18
Speaker 10: at their phones or their TVs because I have law
10:20
Speaker 10: enforcement officers that are being shot at, that are being injured,
10:23
Speaker 10: that are being hurt, vehicles being damaged, things being burned,
10:27
Speaker 10: and they're calling it peaceful. It is a disgusting display
10:31
Speaker 10: of partisan politics. I wish they would all just put
10:34
Speaker 10: their phones down, be quiet, and let law enforcement handle
10:38
Speaker 10: this how it should be handled, which is the complete
10:41
Speaker 10: enforcement of law and holding criminals accountable. It's rocks, bottles, tools,
10:47
Speaker 10: weapons being thrown at us. You watched multiple vehicles destroyed
10:53
Speaker 10: yesterday by bricks. There are people hauling bricks into the
10:57
Speaker 10: zone and then dropping them off, leaving there weapon leaving
11:01
Speaker 10: them there for weapons, and then our deputies and our
11:04
Speaker 10: police officers are they're being used against us, and we're
11:07
Speaker 10: being hit with bottles. We're being hit with with glass bottles,
11:11
Speaker 10: with tools, with rocks, with bricks. This is not a
11:14
Speaker 10: peaceful protest. It isn't even a protest anymore. It is
11:17
Speaker 10: a violent riot, and if they are going to try
11:20
Speaker 10: and do harm, then it is the responsibility of law
11:23
Speaker 10: enforcement to win that confrontation and all of them need
11:28
Speaker 10: to go to jail. We know that gunfire has been reported,
11:33
Speaker 10: we have a I know that there is a report
11:35
Speaker 10: of an officer being shot already. I'm not sure of
11:37
Speaker 10: the circumstances, so I don't know if it was a
11:40
Speaker 10: if it was pertaining to what is going on, or
11:42
Speaker 10: if it was involving something in the peripheral.
11:44
Speaker 7: I don't know. It's quite quite frankly, it's irrelevant.
11:49
Speaker 10: We are responsible for keeping people in property safe, and
11:52
Speaker 10: when people come and attack us, then we need to
11:55
Speaker 10: make sure that they're held accountable. They are trying to
11:58
Speaker 10: violently influence something political action. That is what this is,
12:02
Speaker 10: That is what everything that the Constitution stands against.
12:06
Speaker 7: That is what law enforcement stands against, and that is.
12:08
Speaker 10: What will that is what will facilitate the downfall of
12:12
Speaker 10: our civilized society.
12:13
Speaker 7: A civilized society has.
12:15
Speaker 10: An adherence to the rule of law and there is
12:17
Speaker 10: consequence for breaking that social compact. And when politicians encourage
12:22
Speaker 10: this behavior, which that's exactly what they are doing, is
12:25
Speaker 10: encouraging this behavior, encouraging people to come out and participate
12:29
Speaker 10: in these riots. And they lie to us and say
12:33
Speaker 10: that they're encouraging a peaceful protest.
12:35
Speaker 7: No they're not.
12:35
Speaker 10: They know exactly what they're doing. This is far beyond
12:38
Speaker 10: peaceful protest. This is now a political action and they
12:42
Speaker 10: are using violence and the threats of violence in order
12:45
Speaker 10: to get their way, and we absolutely must stop this
12:50
Speaker 10: into the ground and stop it from happening. Chief of
12:53
Speaker 10: police from the largest police agency in the country said
12:56
Speaker 10: that they are being overwhelmed.
12:58
Speaker 7: Governor Knews's needs.
12:59
Speaker 10: To put his down, go sit in his house behind
13:02
Speaker 10: the comfort of his TV screen and a couch and
13:05
Speaker 10: be quiet because he is doing nothing but fueling this process.
13:09
Speaker 10: He needs to stay out of the way of law enforcement.
13:11
Speaker 10: He knows nothing about this. He knows absolutely nothing about
13:15
Speaker 10: the enforcement of law. He despises the enforcement of law,
13:19
Speaker 10: and he has encouraged this. He has enabled this lawless
13:26
Speaker 10: act that is going on right now. This has been
13:29
Speaker 10: years in the making that he has encouraged. So quite frankly,
13:32
Speaker 10: I don't care what he says. He says everything in
13:35
Speaker 10: a disingenuous manner for his own personal political gain, and
13:39
Speaker 10: we are suffering the consequences.
13:43
Speaker 1: I couldn't agree more.
13:45
Speaker 2: But it's also goes back to the narrative that the
13:48
Speaker 2: left has put out there that there's no help needed,
13:50
Speaker 2: Everything's fine. This is all somehow Donald Trump's fault because
13:54
Speaker 2: he's sent in Ice, because he's sent in the National Guard.
13:57
Speaker 2: And yet we are seeing this gruh not just in
14:01
Speaker 2: la as we speak, but also all over the country.
14:05
Speaker 3: You know, Look, that sheriff you just listened to is
14:07
Speaker 3: running for governor in California as a Republican.
14:11
Speaker 11: Uh.
14:11
Speaker 3: And sadly, I think the people of California they have
14:14
Speaker 3: demonstrated over and over again they doubled down on these
14:17
Speaker 3: lawless democrats and and tragically they pay the price. I
14:21
Speaker 3: want you to listen to to Maxine Waters, who who
14:24
Speaker 3: actually she may formerly be the mayor of crazy Town,
14:28
Speaker 3: but but just listen. Listen to her talking about claiming,
14:31
Speaker 3: claiming there's no violence, give a listen.
14:33
Speaker 8: Test and even those who were out of step with
14:37
Speaker 8: what we are advocating peaceful protest did not create any violence.
14:42
Speaker 8: Nobody was shot, nobody was killed.
14:44
Speaker 1: Get it in your head.
14:46
Speaker 8: And so when martial law is called, what are you
14:49
Speaker 8: gonna say, I missed the pont.
14:51
Speaker 1: Don't miss the pont.
14:52
Speaker 8: You all don't think that somehow because they called out
14:56
Speaker 8: the National Guard there was violence.
14:58
Speaker 4: There was no violence.
15:00
Speaker 8: I was on the street, I know, and I went
15:02
Speaker 8: from downtown detention back out into the community talking to people.
15:07
Speaker 8: What happened in Paramount, what happened in Compton, what happened
15:10
Speaker 8: in Inglewood. So first of all, get it straight and
15:15
Speaker 8: don't just rely on what you've been told. Are the
15:18
Speaker 8: few incidents that you saw.
15:20
Speaker 3: I mean, don't rely on what you saw. Don't believe
15:23
Speaker 3: your your lying eyes. The police cars that are on fire,
15:28
Speaker 3: those are not. These are not the droids you're looking for.
15:30
Speaker 3: These are not. These are not the fires, the looting,
15:32
Speaker 3: the stores rob Nope, doesn't matter. Just and and by
15:36
Speaker 3: the way, Maxine Waters is not alone. I want you
15:39
Speaker 3: to listen now to Karen bass who's going to claim
15:43
Speaker 3: are spoiler alert, who do you think is responsible for
15:46
Speaker 3: the riots? Of course, big Trump bingo boy. It's almost
15:51
Speaker 3: like you've heard the Democrat talking points.
15:54
Speaker 1: Listen to it. It's incredible. Here she is, we.
15:59
Speaker 11: Need to stop the raids. There should should not be
16:03
Speaker 11: happening in our city. It is not warranted, and it
16:06
Speaker 11: does any The only thing it does is contribute to chaos.
16:10
Speaker 11: This was chaos that was started in Washington, d C.
16:14
Speaker 11: On Thursday.
16:15
Speaker 4: The city was peaceful on Friday.
16:18
Speaker 11: It was not because of the intervention of the federal government.
16:23
Speaker 2: It's it's it's law enforcement's fault that we have anarchy,
16:27
Speaker 2: said no same person.
16:29
Speaker 3: Ever, So, comrade bass Is is unhappy that the federal
16:34
Speaker 3: government is enforcing federal immigration law. And she does not
16:39
Speaker 3: want illegal immigrants arrested, and and and and she says, well,
16:44
Speaker 3: you know, if you arrest illegal immigrants, if you remove
16:47
Speaker 3: them that then then it's your fault the rioting. You know,
16:50
Speaker 3: you should understand that that we're going to have violent rioting.
16:54
Speaker 3: Uh if you remove illegal immigrants. And and I want
16:58
Speaker 3: to give you an example of some of the people
17:01
Speaker 3: who are being removed. So DHS put out a list
17:07
Speaker 3: of some of the illegal immigrants, some of the violent
17:10
Speaker 3: illegal immigrants who are being removed. One of them was
17:14
Speaker 3: Chong Chan Fan. Chung Chan Fan is a forty nine
17:17
Speaker 3: year old Vietnamese national. He was previously convicted of second
17:21
Speaker 3: degree murder. He was sentenced to serve fifteen years to
17:24
Speaker 3: life in prison after he and his gang member associates
17:28
Speaker 3: were asked to leave a high school graduation party in
17:30
Speaker 3: nineteen ninety four following a dispute, and then they returned
17:34
Speaker 3: with semi automatic weapons which they fired into a crowd
17:37
Speaker 3: of about thirty partygoers. Dennis Brown eighteen of South Pasadena

Speaker 3: this criminal illegal alien is who Governor Newsom, Mayor Bass
17:54
Speaker 3: and the rioters in Los Angeles are trying to protect
17:58
Speaker 3: over US citizens. Who else did ice arrest? I also
18:02
Speaker 3: criminally arrested Cielo Vivar Ubaldo, who was a previously deported
18:08

18:13

Speaker 3: and obstructing a public officer in Pasadena. And they're more
20:26
Speaker 3: and more and more. I could keep reading names. These
20:29
Speaker 3: are violent criminals, and so what Karen Basswood the Democrats
20:32
Speaker 3: are saying is if the federal government arrest arrests violent
20:36
Speaker 3: criminals who are a threat to your family, to your community,
20:41
Speaker 3: then it's the federal government's fault for the rioting and
20:45
Speaker 3: looting and criminality. This is today's Democratic.
20:48
Speaker 1: Par Queer Center.
20:49
Speaker 2: Let's be clear, none of what you said can be true,
20:53
Speaker 2: because I have a montage of the media is saying
20:55
Speaker 2: that what you just described is a lie.
20:58
Speaker 1: It's not right.
21:00
Speaker 2: It's not looting, it's not burning of police cars.
21:04
Speaker 1: Here's the media saying you're just wrong.
21:06
Speaker 9: The La County Police say that they have it under control.
21:11
Speaker 9: Pairing a flag is not illegal. As you know, what
21:15
Speaker 9: did happen in nineteen ninety two was so different from
21:18
Speaker 9: what we're seeing now. I mean that that was a
21:22
Speaker 9: real riot.
21:23
Speaker 12: Video after video has shown that these agents are the
21:27
Speaker 12: ones provoking protesters and also making up aggression by these protesters,
21:35
Speaker 12: and later video shows people were not aggressive.
21:38
Speaker 13: We are having an administration that's targeting peaceful protests, people
21:42
Speaker 13: that are there at protests. The president is sitting in
21:45
Speaker 13: the National Guard because he doesn't like the scenes. He
21:47
Speaker 13: doesn't like the scenes of people peacefully protesting.
21:50
Speaker 7: Unrest is isolated.
21:52
Speaker 12: LA has palmed millions of people, most of them are
21:54
Speaker 12: having a normal day here on Sunday.
21:56
Speaker 13: You know, you've heard reports that there are riots on
21:58
Speaker 13: the streets of Los Angeles.
22:00
Speaker 1: That is not what's happening.
22:01
Speaker 4: Across the city of Los Angeles.
22:02
Speaker 1: Covenation's right.
22:03
Speaker 12: There was anything like a riot happening on Friday Saturday, and.
22:06
Speaker 9: We just witnessed protesters thanking a National guardsman for his service.
22:11
Speaker 12: Here in California, lapd By most estimates, had this under
22:16
Speaker 12: control last night.
22:17
Speaker 4: No, I don't think the National Guard is needed now.
22:21
Speaker 4: Things in La are calm.
22:22
Speaker 11: There was a protest that got a little unruly late
22:25
Speaker 11: at night.
22:26
Speaker 8: There been no violence where anybody that was protesting hit anybody,
22:32
Speaker 8: shot anybody, anybody nothing.
22:36
Speaker 5: What is just a bunch of people having fun watching
22:39
Speaker 5: cars burn.
22:40
Speaker 11: Most of those demonstrators were very peaceful.
22:43
Speaker 8: They were chanting, they were shotting, people were driving by
22:45
Speaker 8: plonking their horns.
22:47
Speaker 1: I mean, that's just normal life out there.
22:49
Speaker 8: You know.
22:49
Speaker 3: They were just having fun watching cars burn. You know,
22:52
Speaker 3: you know that's just that's just good old fashion entertainment.
22:55
Speaker 3: Like get out your popcorn, you know, light some police
22:58
Speaker 3: cars on fire.
22:59
Speaker 2: You know, DC next time you and I are just
23:02
Speaker 2: hanging out, you know, we should just maybe just I
23:05
Speaker 2: don't know, find a car and just set on fire
23:07
Speaker 2: and watch it burn.
23:08
Speaker 1: We're not doing the illegal. Everything's fine.
23:11
Speaker 3: So to to give you a sense of just how
23:15
Speaker 3: how much propaganda the media is desperately trying to spend.
23:19
Speaker 3: I'm gonna read you four headlines. All right, So this
23:21
Speaker 3: is a headline from the New York Times quote, the
23:24
Speaker 3: Mexican flag becomes a potent LA protest symbol. Trump officials
23:29
Speaker 3: of cast demonstrators waving the Mexican flag as insurrectionists. But
23:34
Speaker 3: for many protesters who are Mexican American, the flag represents
23:37
Speaker 3: pride in their heritage. Now, mind you, they're waving the
23:41
Speaker 3: flag saying, Dear God, whatever you do, do not send
23:44
Speaker 3: me back to Mexico. That is their message. But apparently
23:47
Speaker 3: it's pride in their heritage. Simultaneously, here's CNN quote, Trump
23:52
Speaker 3: is acting like an authoritarian. California's crisis now rests on
23:57
Speaker 3: what he does next. That's CNN nice an objective, all right.
24:01
Speaker 3: How about the Washington Post quote, He's waging a war
24:06
Speaker 3: on us as Trump escalates Angelino's defend their city across
24:13
Speaker 3: this vast metropolis, residents denounce what they consider an attack
24:17
Speaker 3: on the very fabric of their city, on their neighbors, coworkers,
24:21
Speaker 3: family members. That's the Washington Post. And finally NPR NPR,
24:25
Speaker 3: which by the way you and I are paying for
24:27
Speaker 3: every one of us who listens is paying for it
24:29
Speaker 3: through our tax dollars. Here's what NPR says. Quote Trump
24:33
Speaker 3: using National Guard in la is an abusive power, says
24:37
Speaker 3: national security expert. That's the media, well, and with the
24:43
Speaker 3: media doing everything they can to deny the truth, to lie,
24:46
Speaker 3: to obfuscate, to pretend that this is all peaceful, that
24:50
Speaker 3: there's no violence, never mind the violence that is unfolding
24:53
Speaker 3: in front of our eyes. You know, Maxine Waters said,
24:56
Speaker 3: don't believe your lying eyes. I'm telling you there's no violence.
24:59
Speaker 3: What is Gavin Newso doing? Is he protecting the people
25:01
Speaker 3: of California. No, Instead, he's suing President Trump to stop
25:07
Speaker 3: the President from protecting the people of California. Gavin Newsom
25:11
Speaker 3: tweeted out quote, I have formally requested the Trump administration
25:15
Speaker 3: rescind their unlawful deployment of troops in Los Angeles County
25:19
Speaker 3: and return them to my command. We didn't have a
25:22
Speaker 3: problem until Trump got involved. This is a serious breach
25:26
Speaker 3: of state sovereignty and flaming tensions while pulling resources from
25:29
Speaker 3: where they're actually needed. Rescind the order return control to California.
25:36
Speaker 3: So Gavin Newsom is not upset that illegal immigrants have
25:43
Speaker 3: flooded into this country for the last four years across
25:45
Speaker 3: open borders. He's not upset that murderers, murderers and rapists
25:49
Speaker 3: and child molesters and gangbangers have been released. He's not
25:52
Speaker 3: upset that that Californians are being murdered, are being violently
25:56
Speaker 3: assaulted by illegal immigrants. None of that dismays him. He's
25:59
Speaker 3: not upset set at the looting. He's not standing with
26:01
Speaker 3: the poor small business owners and shop owners whose stores
26:04
Speaker 3: were destroyed by the violent crime. None of that upsets him. Instead,
26:09
Speaker 3: Gavin Newsom's problem is damn at. Number one, Trump is
26:12
Speaker 3: arresting illegals, and where are the Democrats? Where the party
26:15
Speaker 3: of illegals? And number two, even worse, Trump is sending
26:20
Speaker 3: in federal officers, sending in the National Guard to keep
26:24
Speaker 3: communities safe, to protect families, to protect homes. That is
26:29
Speaker 3: unacceptable because if there's one thing the Democrats stand for
26:32
Speaker 3: beyond illegal immigrations and crime, it is preventing the police
26:37
Speaker 3: from doing their job, preventing them from keeping you safe.
26:40
Speaker 3: I think that really sums up the lunacy of where
26:45
Speaker 3: the Left is today.
26:47
Speaker 2: Final question on this one. I don't think there's any
26:51
Speaker 2: near end in sight. I think this is going to
26:53
Speaker 2: continue to grow.
26:54
Speaker 1: Do you agree?
26:56
Speaker 3: I do. And let me say we started by saying
26:59
Speaker 3: this one where we predicted that this spreads nationally, that
27:03
Speaker 3: we see these protests in these riots and cities across
27:06
Speaker 3: the country, and I think we need to follow the money.
27:09
Speaker 3: And that's certainly what I am urging the President, urging
27:11
Speaker 3: the Department of Justice to do, is follow the money
27:13
Speaker 3: and anyone who is funding this. This is just like
27:16
Speaker 3: the anti Semitic protests on college campuses. By the way,
27:19
Speaker 3: I suspect it's the same people who funded the anti
27:22
Speaker 3: Semitic protests, who funded the ANTIFA in Black Lives Matter riots.
27:28
Speaker 3: It is the same radicals who hate America. Many of
27:33
Speaker 3: them are openly Marxist. Black Lives Matter is openly Marxist.
27:37
Speaker 3: They're rabidly anti Israel, They're rabidly anti capitalism, they're rabidly
27:41
Speaker 3: anti police, they're rabidly anti law and order. They're rapidly
27:45
Speaker 3: pro criminal, they're rapidly pro violence. But we need to
27:49
Speaker 3: follow the money and prosecute anyone who is funding riots
27:53
Speaker 3: across this country. And I hope that's exactly what the
27:56
Speaker 3: Trump administration does.
27:58
Speaker 1: Yeah, no doubt about it.
27:59
Speaker 2: Before we I got to just hit pause, and you
28:02
Speaker 2: got a really cool letter from a kid. This inspires me,
28:08
Speaker 2: It makes me happy. It reminds me when I got
28:10
Speaker 2: into radio when I was twelve years old. And I
28:12
Speaker 2: want you to just tell us about this letter, and
28:15
Speaker 2: I want to read it for everybody listens a verdict.
28:17
Speaker 1: It's awesome.
28:18
Speaker 3: Well, listen, I had a member of my staff who
28:20
Speaker 3: was down in Texas this past week and was at
28:24
Speaker 3: Fort Cavazos, which actually just got renamed back to Fort
28:27
Speaker 3: Hood and so. And he was there at Fort Cavazos
28:32
Speaker 3: and there was a major who's stationed stationed there who
28:35
Speaker 3: gave him a letter and gave him a letter. It
28:38
Speaker 3: was a letter from from his ten year old son.
28:41
Speaker 3: And I'm going to read it. I'm not going to
28:43
Speaker 3: give you his last name, but but I'm gonna I'm
28:45
Speaker 3: gonna read the letter that that I was handed today.
28:49

Speaker 3: a student at Hill Country Christian School of Austin. And
28:56
Speaker 3: I am pro god, pro life, and pro gun Republican
29:00
Speaker 3: who loves America Jesus and politics. I want to write
29:04
Speaker 3: to you to say thank you for everything you have
29:06
Speaker 3: done for Texas in America. There's a paragraph that's really
29:11
Speaker 3: nice in praising me, which I'm going to skip because
29:14
Speaker 3: that seems a little self centered to read a paragraph
29:17
Speaker 3: praising me. But here's the paragraph I want. I wanted
29:19
Speaker 3: every Verdict listener to hear. I listen to your podcast
29:25
Speaker 3: Verdict every week. I have learned so much from you
29:30
Speaker 3: about how government works and all the things you are
29:33
Speaker 3: doing to stop the radical left agenda and help President
29:36
Speaker 3: Trump pass the America First agenda. You have helped me
29:41
Speaker 3: to want to be a politician when I'm older. Thank
29:44
Speaker 3: you for everything you do. Sincerely, Justin h Ten.
29:48
Speaker 1: I love it. This is exactly what I love doing
29:50
Speaker 1: this show.
29:50
Speaker 2: I hope you let your kids listen, your grandkids, and

30:01
Speaker 2: and make a difference it.

Speaker 3: And by the way, and by the way, and and
30:04
Speaker 3: by the way, I'll give you a little bit of color.
30:07
Speaker 3: When we were initially doing the show. We were going
30:09
Speaker 3: to play two additional clips of the riots, uh and
30:12
Speaker 3: and their there live audio, but but they're live audio.
30:15
Speaker 3: That that that featured people in the riots screaming and
30:18
Speaker 3: they had several expletives and and and we actually recorded
30:21
Speaker 3: that segment and then I said, Ben, let's delete those.
30:24
Speaker 3: We don't really need to be playing expletives for our listeners,
30:26
Speaker 3: particularly when we have a young young man like justin listening.
30:30
Speaker 3: We can just skip over that.
