A convicted criminal who crossed the border illegally will face an immigration hearing now in the year 2030. A registered sex offender from Texas is in custody in Canada after slipping through a well-known illegal border crossing in Quebec. And like all illegals, he was welcomed.
00:04:15.240In some ways, I don't know what's worse, letting in a convicted criminal like that or letting in, get this, an actual American citizen seeking refugee status.
00:06:13.820Turkish airlines refused to let him get on their flight.
00:06:16.700I'd like to hear the whole story behind that, wouldn't you?
00:06:19.340But he's apparently a successful businessman who spent years in United Arab Emirates, Dubai kind of thing, Abu Dhabi.
00:06:27.280Let me read from this weird propaganda story in Trudeau's state broadcaster.
00:06:32.240A Syrian man who has been living in the transit area of Kuala Lumpur Airport since March has been arrested by Malaysian authorities.
00:06:40.440Hassan Al-Khantar, 36, became stranded in the airport when he was turned away from a Turkish Airlines flight in March, causing him to overstay his Malaysian visa.
00:06:49.220Since then, a group of Canadians in Whistler, B.C., has been trying to sponsor his application to come to Canada and publicly lobbying Ahmed Hassan, Canada's Minister of Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship.
00:07:01.800Al-Khantar, who is from Dhamma, Syria, worked as an insurance marketing manager in the United Arab Emirates from 2006 to 2017.
00:07:10.160He was arrested on Monday, Malaysia's New Straits Times newspaper reported.
00:07:15.560So just to be clear, in case you missed it, there is no connection to Canada.
00:07:20.940He is not from Syria, or at least he hasn't been in a dozen years.
00:09:36.760Immigration's Stefan Hanfield was so shocked when he saw the letter of invitation from one of his clients that he published part of it on Facebook.
00:09:53.340It states that the claimant must go to the Immigration and Refugee Board at Complexe Guy Favreau in Montreal on January 1st, 2030.
00:10:02.620There is a public servant who sleeps on the switch because on the one hand, January 1 is a holiday.
00:10:07.980And on the other hand, waiting times for a hearing are 12 to 18 months.
00:10:11.060Certainly not 12 years old, says Hanfield, who points out that he may be retired himself in 2030.
00:11:38.840Why should the Immigration and Refugee Board do their jobs?
00:11:41.580The only people who have to do their jobs is you and me.
00:11:46.860Because someone's got to do their jobs, because someone's got to pay the taxes to pay for these tens of thousands of refugees who will be here forever.
00:11:58.200The system is corrupt, and that's what needs to stop.
00:12:17.460They're saying, if you couldn't hear them, the system is corrupt, and that's why we disrupt.
00:12:33.860That was a scene from the United States Senate today where professional protesters were coming to jam the gears of democracy.
00:12:41.540And frankly, the most succinct report and the most accurate report from all of Capitol Hill came not from a reporter, but rather from the President of the United States himself, who tweeted thusly.
00:12:54.540Thusly, he said, the very rude elevator screamers are paid professionals, only looking to make senators look bad.
00:13:16.640And in case you doubt him, let me show, and this was filmed by my friendly acquaintance, Jeff G.C., on his own phone, one of these professional organizers doing a bizarre Occupy Wall Street style call and response instruction giving for these same protesters.
00:14:21.540One man who has been following the Senate, and by the way, if you haven't figured it out, we're talking about the confirmation hearings for the proposed Supreme Court of the United States Justice, Brett Kavanaugh.
00:14:32.480Joining us now via Skype from Chicago is Joel Pollack, senior editor-at-large of Breitbart.com.
00:14:41.240You are in Chicago, which is the home of the alt-left going back more than a century.
00:14:46.200The radical left has deep roots in Chicago, deep roots on campuses.
00:14:50.760But that Chicago-style activism, that campus-style crazy is fully deployed in the Capitol buildings, I think, for the first time ever.
00:14:58.460Well, the president was actually commenting after Senator Charles Grassley, who's the chair of the Senate Judiciary Committee, had made a statement in response to a question on a television news program.
00:15:12.180He was asked whether he thinks some of the protesters are paid, and he said he was partial to that view because he had seen many other people who said so, and in fact, he's correct.
00:15:23.740The original elevator screamer, as Trump later called her, was a woman who had not complained previously about a sexual assault.
00:15:33.520But that day, after the hearing announced that she had been a victim and cornered Jeff Flake in an elevator, holding the door open so he couldn't leave, she happens to be the leader of a George Soros-funded organization in New York.
00:15:50.920There are other organizations funded by Soros and other Democratic donors who work with him that were all over Capitol Hill today and throughout the week.
00:15:59.580Now, whether it had the effect intended is another story.
00:16:03.920We actually think that it may have pushed Susan Collins and Jeff Flake more firmly onto the side of voting for Brett Kavanaugh.
00:16:13.100Lisa Murkowski, the Republican from Alaska, broke with her party.
00:16:17.020But the antics of the left-wing protesters seem to have convinced Susan Collins and Jeff Flake and others, perhaps, that they could not allow the mob to rule the country.
00:16:27.060And so those protests had a very negative effect with or without the president's tweet on the goal of stopping Brett Kavanaugh.
00:16:36.360The left really lost its marbles, and I think there were consequences.
00:16:42.500I think this whole thing has been a massacre.
00:16:44.540I think, was it the senator, Lindsey, I just forgot his last name, I'm sorry, Lindsey Graham, who said maybe we ought to throw him in water, and if he drowns, he's innocent.
00:17:02.140Like, he made, like, it's been so absurd, the process in the Senate.
00:17:06.080But that was bad enough, that was brutal and dishonest enough, but this Pussyhat style, Women's March style, Occupy Wall Street crazy is such a mob scene that I think that, I think it scared Main Street America.
00:17:27.380I mean, just moments ago, after Collins finished her speech, first of all, while she was speaking, her office was occupied by left-wing protesters.
00:17:35.380And before she started speaking in the Senate gallery, they were shouting at her, which is illegal.
00:17:40.900You cannot voice opinions for or against anything or anyone from the Senate gallery.
00:17:45.980But right after she finished, Senator Joe Manchin, a Democrat who broke with his party to vote, to move the process along and announced that he would vote for Kavanaugh, he was trying to give interviews to reporters in the hallway, and his voice was drowned out by people chanting, shame, shame, over and over again.
00:18:07.260That was broadcast on live television.
00:18:10.040People are watching this at home, beside themselves with the idea that these professional activists are basically able to commandeer the country and have a louder voice than everybody else because they're willing to break the law.
00:18:22.360They're willing to occupy Senate offices.
00:18:26.900Some of the tweets that came out after Collins' speech said that they're going to follow her everywhere she goes for the rest of her life.
00:18:32.460I mean, this sort of behavior is out there, and it's scaring voters, and that's one of the reasons you're seeing Republican enthusiasm now surging in the polls.
00:18:42.200Before, Democrats were motivated to vote mostly because out of dislike of Trump, and Republicans were somewhat complacent or undecided.
00:18:49.980The most recent polls are showing us that Republican voters are suddenly as excited to vote as Democrats because they're alarmed at the behavior they've seen during the Brett Kavanaugh debate.
00:18:59.740So that's the effect of what they're doing, but they can't help themselves.
00:19:07.500You know, it really is the campus-style insanity.
00:19:10.840I remember the riots in Berkeley when Milo Yiannopoulos wanted to speak there, and it was so shocking to see riots and Antifa violence.
00:19:21.100And even in Canada, just a couple of days ago, some casual violence against a young lady at a pro-life, silent protests on the street, just some leftist did a roundhouse kick to her.
00:19:34.100Just this casual violence is only one inch further than these mobs.
00:19:40.780I mean, the shooting of Steve Scalise, the beating of Rand Paul, I think that middle Americans, and I'm a Canadian, but I feel, I get the same feeling that there is a madness on the other side that they are going to use every single inch they have to verbally shout at people, but maybe one in a hundred of them will go further and punch or kick or, God forbid, shoot.
00:20:10.780All of that is possible, and certainly if we had seen conservatives thronging the halls of Capitol Hill to stop a Democratic president from nominating someone to the Supreme Court, you'd be hearing all kinds of things about violent extremism.
00:20:27.600They would even probably have called it a coup, because to try to use that kind of pressure to control the government, and remember, our legislature is part of the government just as much as the president, that's a coup.
00:20:39.840And the media would have described it as such.
00:20:43.460Instead, I think they empathized with the protesters and allowed this to happen.
00:20:48.040I think the pressure people feel on this doesn't need to be violent for it to have a really powerful effect.
00:20:55.500It means people are less likely to say publicly that they support Kavanaugh or support the president.
00:20:59.680But what we're also seeing is that privately voters are becoming really upset by it, and as long as they still believe in the secret ballot, many of them are going to go to the polls and vote against what they've seen the Democrats do on television.
00:21:12.780When mild-mannered, centrist Republicans or conservative-leaning Democrats, you mentioned Joe Manchin from West Virginia, West Virginia very pro-Trump, I think it's the most pro-Trump state in the Union, if my memory serves.
00:21:31.120So he said he's going to vote for Kavanaugh.
00:21:34.460I think that in his own heart he would support Kavanaugh, but also he wants to be re-elected.
00:21:39.120When mild-mannered, thoughtful people like Manchin and Collins say, I'm going to support Kavanaugh, and they are threatened with a lifetime of harassment, I think that severely normal people say, oh my God, they would do the same to me if I made the mistake of a wrong Facebook quote or a wrong tweet or if I said something at a PTA meeting, I would be isolated and attacked in the same way.
00:22:08.460I think people can start to imagine how they would be un-personed and mobbed if they engaged in wrong think, too.
00:22:32.840The protests we're seeing are very similar to protests on college campus.
00:22:37.220The entire process was actually right out of college campuses in terms of the way Kavanaugh was supposed to be guilty before any proof or corroborating evidence was presented.
00:22:51.280That's what goes on on campus today where, in many places, all the accuser has to do is show a preponderance of evidence just slightly more likely than not that something happened.
00:23:06.780In many cases, it's just an accuser's word against the accused.
00:23:09.820But we have this sort of sham judicial process going on quietly on campuses all the time.
00:23:15.200And suddenly, it was blown up for the entire nation to see.
00:27:08.620I mean, what they put him through, I guess maybe if he's vindicated, if he wins, he can calm down, take a short getaway with his family and get down to work.
00:27:17.800But what does it mean now that he's been toxified by all the sludge thrown at him by the left?
00:27:50.560I think he'll be a very good justice, but he'll also be, in a sense, liberated to be a conservative justice.
00:27:54.840And maybe that's a good point on which to leave this, which is that if you create this kind of partisan atmosphere, if you bring up these scurrilous, life-destroying allegations, you actually prejudice the court against you, and you deserve to have that happen.
00:28:15.300I still think he'll be a fair justice, and he wrote that in the Wall Street Journal today.
00:28:18.500But I think people are complaining now that he can't be impartial or that he's going to be too partisan.
00:28:23.620I think that that's too bad, if so, because I think when you do this to someone, the court should be allowed to draw inferences against you.
00:28:33.540And if these groups come before the court and they think that they're not going to get a fair hearing, maybe they should treat people more fairly next time.
00:29:59.040He, I mean, what kind of a fool would resort to violence anyways?
00:30:03.140You've got to be a double fool to resort to violence when you're being filmed.
00:30:06.220And a triple fool to think that in some way you're just going to knock a phone out of someone's hands without touching them in any way.
00:30:13.980And then I guess a quadruple layer of folly would be to think that that is somehow acceptable.
00:30:20.020But I guess the fifth layer is you've already been doing illegal and criminal things by writing on people's signs and then on their persons.
00:32:54.680Another way of saying things, you know, the former Soviet Union, just as an example that comes to mind, had a constitution that parts of it, if you look at it on paper, you'd say, wow, this is a great constitution.
00:33:06.940Whereas, for example, the United Kingdom has never had the same sort of written constitution, yet which place was freer?
00:33:13.920And my whole point of saying, Ezra, what are you talking about, kids?
00:33:21.940Is the laws ought to reflect the morality of the society and ought to enforce that morality where mere custom and manner and politeness don't.
00:33:31.80099.9% of the time, we are our own law enforcers.
00:33:38.520If we weren't, we would need a police state where every second person was a cop enforcing the law.
00:33:44.560And then you'd need cops to enforce cops, wouldn't you?
00:33:48.480We have self-government in 99.9% of the ways.
00:33:52.500And only when someone breaks from that social contract does the law come in with a policeman.
00:33:57.960And so my problem with this guy, Jordan Hunt, is that he has been taught somehow, either through our school system or through Hollywood or through political leaders or through celebrities on Twitter or through social media.
00:34:15.520He has been taught that it is morally acceptable to punch or kick someone if you disagree with her and then call her a Nazi afterwards to justify yourself.
00:34:25.900He has been taught that there is an asterisk, a footnote, an exception to the law if you really feel passionate about it.
00:34:34.440That's the problem here, is that we no longer self-govern because someone has taught us we don't have to.
