00:04:57.460I want to talk more about the bond market and our spending since we just passed a CR for, I don't know, instead of forcing a conversation, I want to go to Todd Bensman.
00:05:08.580Todd, people's heads are still blowing up this morning.
00:05:12.640I just want to do a reset on this morning's on your hit on the morning show because I've gotten tremendous feedback of it, and people want to know more.
00:05:20.760And then I want to segue into your new piece.
00:05:23.500But this gets back, Todd, to the problem of spending and not having a debate here on the CR and just kicking the can down the road until December to December 11th.
00:05:35.220You're going to get an omnibus suppository because they've only passed two of the appropriations bills.
00:05:41.340If we wanted to actually have the appropriations done properly, which by law I think is kind of locked in, we couldn't because the committees haven't done it.
00:05:53.440They don't want to have debates and do hard work on making cuts, and this is why we have $2 trillion deficits.
00:06:01.480A not insignificant part of that deficit is the defense budget.
00:06:06.220A part of the defense budget, Todd Bensman, is the $300 billion that we've spent over at Ukraine.
00:06:14.440And you've shown that a lot of the support that we've given them, they've done advances in drone technology, right, which has been this way they fought.
00:06:22.640And the valor and courage of the Ukrainian people I don't think can be questioned because they have fought pound for pound as bravely as the Russians have.
00:06:30.400Their government's corrupt, Zelensky's corrupt, but the Ukrainian people are tough and smart and really kind of thought their way with the drone technology and other things to – particularly when a lot of people didn't want to sign for their military to fight the Russians to withdraw.
00:06:45.980But this is one of the reasons that we're broke, and we keep borrowing money and printing it, and yet the problems in the country, as you have shown, are internal with these sanctuary cities, the tens of millions, right, of 22 million illegal aliens in the country.
00:07:03.960Of course, Steve Camerato at CIS, which I love Steve, he was on this morning, says there's 14 million.
00:07:10.080That's fine. Let's take 14 million, 22 million.
00:07:14.820We've got massive problems in the country we're not dealing with.
00:07:18.540You in the Trump administration, you just left.
00:07:21.400You were in the counterterrorism task force.
00:07:23.900You know that we have a massive war that has to be fought and has to be won on our southern border
00:07:29.540and in Latin America with the human trafficking and drug cartels, and yet we continue to spend
00:07:36.100this money. And now they're working together. The criminal element in Ukraine, which the
00:07:41.100Financial Times of London reported two years ago, I think it's three years ago now, were selling the
00:07:46.180small arms that we were underwriting to the criminal gangs in Europe. Now you've nailed
00:07:51.500them that they're giving drone technology to our enemies in Mexico, the cartels, and in Latin
00:07:59.200or other places at the same time you're you're the guy that wrote the book on saying hey on the
00:08:04.800southern border just don't think it's people coming in here that want a better life it's an
00:08:09.160open pathway to for jihadists and now we're coming up on the 25th anniversary of um of 9-11
00:08:17.380and you know we still got a massive problem with this bensman make it make sense for me sir
00:08:25.500Right. Well, I just wanted to point out in in the Daily Signal in my column that just published this morning that with the 25th anniversary coming up, I mean, everybody's going to be weighing in and you're going to be seeing retrospectives and, you know, lessons learned.
00:08:44.520and how do we think about this, but I guarantee you that in most of that, you will never see a
00:08:50.540reference to Islamism or Islam or the religious underpinnings for the motivations that caused
00:08:58.5209-11, which is extreme radical Islamic thought. It's not even that extreme. It's fairly mainstreamed
00:09:07.100within the religion. There's certainly hundreds of millions of people that believe in Islamism.
00:09:13.420That's the same place that Sharia law comes from.
00:09:16.840The 9-11 hijackers were all al-Akbar-ing on their way to their deaths.
00:09:23.900There is a religious component that we should not forget because it still exists.
00:09:31.520You are still getting attacks, the New Orleans attack, the Chicago attack, the synagogue attack up in Michigan, just to name a few of many, many like it.
00:09:42.680where the same motivations are behind the attacks, which is to say that we're doing this for our Lord,
00:09:52.040for Allah, and we have an ideology that requires us to do this. We must do this. We must martyr
00:10:01.480ourselves. Islamism is laid out as the cause of 9-11 in the 9-11 Commission report. That's the
00:10:11.040official government report. But you watch, Steve, that in all the retrospectives, you're going to
00:10:16.760be like, oh, this is a terrible day for people of the Muslim faith because they feel like they're
00:10:23.600beset by white Christian haters, that they're coming after us because of 9-11 and we're under
00:10:31.760siege. Watch for that. You'll see a lot of that, but you won't see much that was laid out in the
00:10:38.9209-11 Commission Report, which is what I do in my column today, which is just to remind people
00:10:44.500that the commission report, the 9-11 Commission Report is 2004, still stands as the defining,
00:10:52.640the definitive history of what happened on 9-11. It's a good book. It stands to this day. It stood
00:11:02.080the test of time. And it lays out that radical Islam, that's how they call it, or Islamism is
00:11:09.380basically political Islam, which is to say that the state and the religion are inseparable. There's
00:11:15.540no daylight. Hang on, hang on, hang on, hang on, hang on, full stop, full stop, full stop.
00:11:21.320I want to go to this. You make the case, you go into the documents. I want to talk about the 9-11
00:11:26.920being definitive but the bush government at the time the time of 9-11 and they tried to wave it
00:11:35.360off what happened in september hey you know when you relieve the watch you relieve the watch
00:11:39.540so it happened on their watch you've you got and it's all in the 9-11 report they talk about
00:11:44.960political islam of course we had 20 was it 24 pages that were redacted to just i think it was
00:11:50.940in the first year of president trump's first term we got that unredacted right or forced it to be
00:11:56.420unredacted about Saudi Arabia, but the Bush administration went out of their way to kind
00:12:03.300of bury this. You never heard them talk about the Islamist nature of this. In fact, Bush was
00:12:08.280famous. He came out 48 hours or 24 hours after the assault itself. He goes to a mosque. That's
00:12:15.940an Islamist mosque up in Northwest DC and comes out and says, oh, you know, Islam is a religion
00:12:22.240of peace. It's religion of peace. The Bush administration went out of their way not to say
00:12:27.960what you're saying is in the document. If your article had come out in the early days of 9-11,
00:12:35.980they would have said, this Todd Benzman's a bad guy. This Todd Benzman is trying to stir things
00:12:40.360up. This Todd Benzman's got it totally wrong. The Bush administration got him out of the country.
00:12:45.360So the report says it, but we've had successive governments until, quite frankly, President
00:12:50.500Trump's first term that looked the other way on purpose.
00:13:28.680The peace – and where is it up, Todd?
00:13:31.320We're going to push it out because it is the best way to, I think, kick off Daily Signal.
00:13:37.640And Rob Bluey and the guy is doing a great job.
00:13:39.120This is why I wanted to get Todd on this evening to talk about this.
00:13:42.360This is the best way to kind of refresh your memory and go back in time because he's 100 percent right.
00:13:47.820You're going to start seeing, including this weekend, all these beginning retrospectives on the 25 years when we have a Marxist jihadist Ugandan, right, that should be denaturalized because he lied in his naturalization files as the mayor of New York City.
00:14:03.940I want you to embrace that for a second.
00:14:06.000Todd Benzman lays it all out for you from the pages of the 9-11 report.
00:14:10.940But boy, if Todd Benson put this up in the first 48 or 72 hours after the attack, the Bush administration would say he's a bad guy.
00:14:21.240He doesn't speak for us. Don't listen to him.
00:16:23.860Todd Bensman wrote the definitive book about the southern border and jihadists coming across.
00:16:29.540Todd Bensman then wrote a book that had as much to do with President Trump's winning mandate in 2024 of any book that was published in the in the years in the wilderness.
00:16:39.380President Trump had that magnificent book about about Biden's policies and what Biden were doing in an organized fashion to drive an invasion here by illegal alien invaders.
00:16:50.380Todd Bensman, you've gone back this piece. I want everybody to read it.
00:16:53.860But. And you see this happening in Texas right now, you see in Texas right now, I mean, you've got 400 mosque slash Islamic centers in the great state of Texas, 400, 300 are built in an operation, I think another 100 in the process of being built.
00:17:11.580This is happening right now. The great state of Texas is and is let me use a term ground zero for the invasion.
00:17:20.560Todd, 25 years after next week, you're going to have Mandami, who is a jihadist as the mayor.
00:17:27.660It ain't Rudy standing up there. Rudy's going to be there as he always is.
00:17:31.960But the mayor, 25 years later, is a is a Ugandan Marxist jihadist.
00:17:37.580Jihadists, the great state of Texas is under onslaught, and we don't want to talk about the unpleasant topics about that this is a major part.
00:17:45.820When you said extreme radical Islam, it ain't extreme, it's not radical.
00:17:49.800This is a central tenet in belief that of the 1.4 billion or how many 1.1 billion Muslims you have throughout the world, a significant portion, I would say, I think in 80 percent plus, believe in this part of Islam, sir.
00:18:07.580That's right. Remember that the goal of that strand of Islam is to establish a global caliphate, a global Islamic state that looks something like Saudi Arabia, under Sharia law.
00:18:25.940It's crazy. It's a world domination kind of ideology, but hundreds of millions absolutely believe it.
00:18:33.260And there's a percentage within that that is always quite willing to kill us, to kill their enemies.
00:18:40.420And they are driven by a belief system that they that they think requires this kill apostates, et cetera.
00:18:50.280The 9-11 Commission report lays out the foundational, the intellectual foundational kind of philosophy of the founding fathers, Saeed Qutb and Albano and the Muslim Brotherhood.
00:19:04.300All of that is laid out very clearly in the seminal U.S. government report on this that nobody ever talks about anymore because it's politically, it's regarded as unsuitable for young men in America.
00:19:20.280somehow. But it's still there, and it stands unchallenged and undisputed. And the main thing
00:19:29.640that I'm trying to get across here is that if you don't remember that history, you're doomed to
00:19:35.140repeat it. And that ideology is still behind the attacks that we are seeing today. Go back to New
00:19:43.220Orleans a year or so ago with the vehicle ramming that killed all those poor people.
00:19:48.880The National Guardsmen who were shot in D.C., the guy was yelling Al-Aqbar during it.
00:19:54.860The attack on the Chicago Jewish community from a border crosser, a guy that crossed the border from Mauritania,
00:20:01.820went up there and staged an attack on Jewish community, shot one of them, was screaming Al-Aqbar, you've got it all on video.
00:20:10.440I'm just saying that expect in the retrospectives in the 25th anniversary not to hear any of that.
00:20:18.900And if you're a teacher or a media pundit or a writer who's listening to this right now, my my recommendation, I'm urging you to don't forget what caused this.
00:20:35.160Todd, Todd, Todd, Todd, Todd, hang on.
00:20:37.680you stepped in in the second term in and work with the counterterrorism group so you know
00:20:45.000you're you're a man of action not just a thinker and you've done such amazing work
00:20:48.840just coming on the war room for the for the last five or six years and and particularly the in the
00:20:55.080years in the wilderness your reporting your factual information is what awakened many people
00:21:00.680to actually this invasion of the southern border i i want to know i want to say this because i know
00:21:06.480a significant part of our audience does not believe the 9-11 report and they don't believe
00:21:12.460what the government has to say about this on many issues. Okay. One of the reasons I think that
00:21:17.800people believe that is that you're correct. When this came out, there was 20 some pages,
00:21:23.640I think 24 pages that were redacted about Saudi involvement at the highest levels.
00:21:28.060And it was redacted. And people are sitting there going, how can that possibly be?
00:21:32.120Then we had the whole fake weapons of mass destruction and all this about and they tried to tie Saddam Hussein, who's a bad guy, a super bad guy, but they tried to tie him to it.
00:21:42.380They couldn't do that. Then they had weapons of mass destruction to take him out.
00:21:46.520The government itself has gone out of its way to discredit themselves in this area.
00:21:53.520So the one great part of this report, which is about the political ideology that drove the perpetrators, right, gets lost in it as people are just saying, hey, the government kind of suppressed – even the hearings were a little bit suppressed.
00:22:11.180And then as soon as the report came out, they had redacted pages.
00:22:14.280They just wanted to bury it and not have everybody talk about it.
00:22:17.120That's why people have so many questions.
00:22:19.020When you try to hide stuff, people have – remember, was it building number – building number seven, the whole thing about building number seven, about who was actually involved in this?
00:22:28.560That's why all these questions come out because on the most solid part of the report they've got, they went out of their way, and the one thing they had the most of, to suppress it.
00:22:41.540Well, first of all, you know, every major government report over the test of time, you know, the Warren Commission report, you know, there's always new information that can be added to it.
00:22:57.340There's always classified information they were trying to hide at the time and things come out over time.
00:23:02.100But my argument about the 9-11 Commission report is on this particular question about why they did it, what was their primary motivation.
00:23:15.340I think that stands entirely not only undisputed, but reconfirmed over and over and over a thousand times across Europe and even across this country.
00:23:27.300I write a lot about, I did counterterrorism for the Texas Department of Public Safety
00:23:32.600Intelligence Counterterrorism Division for almost 10 years.
00:23:36.780I was steeped in classified information about this.
00:23:39.700And I've been writing about attacks, specific attacks that are charged in federal court.
00:23:50.560It's the same stuff to the present day for 25 years now.
00:23:54.700So whatever disputes and I mentioned in my piece.
00:24:00.120But hang on, hang on, hang on, hang on, hang on.
00:24:03.300From your time in this, your time in the Texas Department of Public Safety as an intelligence officer, then your book, even outside of a small, a small core of people that see it every day and know it and connect the dots.
00:24:17.740Basically, the both the government in Texas and the U.S. government.
00:24:21.320This is why they didn't have such great border security.
00:24:23.440They just kind of want to blow it off. They don't want to be bothered with this.
00:24:26.800It cuts to the core of some of the other things they're trying to do, which is get investment capital here, have relationships with the Gulf Emirates, particularly with the Saudis.
00:24:36.700You know, you've been fighting this and doing a courageous fight as a patriot for basically your entire professional life.
00:24:44.720And it's not like they're saying, hey, a warm embrace of Benzman.
00:24:49.580Oh, he's doing amazing work, right? We've got to do this.
00:24:52.320it's the exact opposite you're always fighting to get this information out correct
00:24:56.880i'm doing i'm doing the best i can um you know with what i got and no no no my point is hang on
00:25:06.020hang on you're doing human work my point is the official apparatus itself is always trying to
00:25:12.780suppress this information right they just don't want to deal with it you guys and what you have
00:25:17.440done has been heroic your book was heroic it opened people's eyes because nobody realized they
00:25:22.160said, what do you mean? There's jihadists coming through the southern border. I thought they were
00:25:25.620just Mexican working class people that wanted a better life. And you said, no, that's not the
00:25:30.660case at all. You got primates there. They're actually having an invasion here of the southern
00:25:35.700border. My point is, with all the heroic work of you and others, that official government
00:25:41.800apparatuses have gone out of their way to try to suppress this information, correct?
00:25:46.360I think that a lot of that has happened under the Biden administration.
00:25:53.780You know, find me someplace where anybody in that administration ever talked about Islamic motivated terrorism as a threat.
00:26:02.000No, it was always white supremacy or some other thing.
00:26:05.120They were always trying to move the ball over here, the bouncing ball over here instead of here.
00:26:13.300We saw that as official policy of an entire administration, and we saw that all throughout the Obama administration, too.
00:26:21.840I really hope that the Trump administration, when the 25th comes out on all the commemorations and memorials and et cetera, that somebody talks about this because it's still a threat.
00:26:36.020I'm coming out of the National Counterterrorism Center out of Virginia.
00:26:40.240I was in there detailed, and I saw what I saw. It's still a major issue. It has not gone away.
00:26:50.200What has happened is we've gotten better at counterterrorism over the last 25 years.
00:26:56.140They still get through, obviously, New Orleans and Detroit, etc. They're still taking shots at us.
00:27:05.220But I'm telling you that there are there is a much larger body of disrupted plots, people that got caught beforehand.
00:27:15.500So that doesn't mean that they're not still trying to get us and that they wouldn't do another 9-11 if they possibly could.
00:27:24.740So, you know, it's still an issue is what I'm saying.
00:27:28.880We've just gotten a little bit better at terrorism.
00:27:31.100I want to hold you for one second because, like the Muslim Brotherhood care, this article is so powerful because it takes us back to the facts themselves, and nobody wants to talk about the facts.
00:27:48.120Brother Bensman is with us now at Heritage doing an incredible job.
00:27:52.680I want to thank the entire Heritage team.
00:27:55.020We're going to take a short commercial break.
00:29:40.220All week we've been in Texas at the Texas Board of Education,
00:29:48.100and you have care down there going up and down the hallways in the Texas capital,
00:29:51.480intimidating people we're going to have clips what they've said about 9-11 what they've said
00:29:56.180about uh radical islam will make your hair stand on end they're up on your grill at official
00:30:02.180testimony and care is it been designated a terrorist organization by the president united
00:30:06.820states in certain territories throughout the world certain countries throughout the world
00:30:09.840it's been designated by united arab emirates as a terrorist organization it's been designated
00:30:14.680by the free state of florida governor de santis as a terrorist organization and by governor abbott
00:30:20.380Todd Benzman correct me if I'm wrong your entire adult professional life has been working on this
00:30:25.600topic you were a reporter at the Dallas Morning News I think decades ago or years ago they sued
00:30:31.360you to shut you up when you were trying to report why are we not able to take a terrorist organization
00:30:38.700and not have them intimidate people that are on the Texas Board of Education and are testifying
00:30:45.380about the dangers of radical Islam in textbooks and education for high school students in the
00:30:51.480great state of Texas, sir. Yeah, I mean, that's the cockroach that keeps escaping, you know,
00:30:59.060every effort to eradicate it. The CARE is a Hamas propaganda wing. It was set up as a Hamas
00:31:08.720propaganda wing in California initially back in the late 90s. And then it moved to Texas. And
00:31:15.440that's where it still is based. And it's spread out from there with the Holy Land Foundation,
00:31:20.420big trial, big terrorism trial. I was a reporter for the Dallas Morning News when 9-11 happened
00:31:27.800covering the FBI. My beat was the FBI. So I got sucked into all of that stuff, the trial,
00:31:34.700the Holy Land Foundation trial. That's where I first cut my teeth on Islamic terrorism. I didn't
00:31:40.900know a whole lot about it until 9-11. And then I was just sucked into the vortex, man, and I never
00:31:46.560stopped. They eventually sued me. CARE, Holy Land Foundation, sued five reporters for the Dallas
00:31:55.580Morning News. I was one of them to shut us up in 2000. That was, I guess, maybe one of the earliest
00:32:04.700you know, battles of lawfare by the Islamists in this country to kind of shut reporting down and
00:32:11.880suppress. That only went away because 9-11 happened and the Bush administration one month
00:32:19.140later indicted them all. And they're still in prison. A bunch of them are, there's still a
00:32:23.740couple of them that are on the lam. But the point is, is that the Holy Land Foundation trial,
00:32:29.760which I covered ad nauseum and wrote extensively about even afterwards, did not have the bandwidth
00:32:38.820to get everybody indicted that they knew was part of Hamas in the United States, and CARE was one
00:32:46.440of those. However, they did publish a long list. I believe it's called Attachment A. If you look
00:32:55.000up my name and attachment a uh google it i've written all about it uh they are in unindicted
00:33:03.300co-conspirators and care is right up there uh and is still on that list and they challenged it all
00:33:10.000the way to the supreme court and lost every single time the evidence was so overwhelming
00:33:15.880that they never could defeat that so they've just continued on as though nothing's happened
00:33:21.320And and the media continue because nothing happens and nothing has happened.
00:33:26.920They're in people's faces. When we play the clips, I hope to have them tomorrow.
00:33:31.280The audience, your head's going to blow up on what's said in public testimony in the statehouse in the state of Texas.
00:33:37.460Todd, we got to bounce. We're going to spend a lot more time in this.
00:33:40.320Where do people go to get all your writings and heritage? What's your social media handle?
00:33:45.100you are a true patriot. So you've dedicated your life to this, both inside the government in Texas,
00:33:51.500inside the federal government for President Trump, and also as one of the great writers
00:33:57.240and analysts in this area. Where do people go, Todd? Thank you for that. Yeah, you can find me
00:34:03.920on X, Todd Binsman, at Todd Binsman. I'm on Getter, same thing, and Truth Social. And ToddBinsman.com
00:34:11.420is my website. Everything goes there. I have a page at Heritage Foundation. Great organization
00:34:17.280took me on after the Trump administration duty. Sir, thank you so much, Todd. We're going to push
00:34:28.340this out first. Get ready to read it. We're going to have you back on because we're going to do the
00:34:31.460correct run up to 9-11 and make sure people really understand what happened 25 years later.
00:34:39.060Thank you, sir. I appreciate you. Let me play a clip. I've got a cold open. Shannon Everett is with us. This is on, guess what? Illegal aliens, legal aliens, and our truckers, the great backbone of the American economy. Let's play the clip. I'll bring Shannon on.
00:34:59.520some basis on where your statistics come from because in this news briefing i've done some
00:35:05.660research correct me if you don't agree with the statistics but according to the u.s department
00:35:10.860of transportation in 2025 only 17 foreign-born drivers holding immigrant or non-documented
00:35:18.340cdls were responsible in fatal accidents less than one percent of all the fatal accidents
00:35:25.120recorded, as opposed to 22.5% of drivers involved in crashes, fatal crashes, had no CDL at all.
00:35:32.380The slide here has been strongly about illegals, foreign drivers, but yet it counts, according
00:35:38.660to U.S. DOT stats I see, 1% of the issue.
00:35:43.640So for your DOT stats, the requirement that someone speak English as a commercial truck
00:35:49.140driver, that was not created by Trump 45 or Trump 47.
00:35:55.120and you could be here you could have migrated to this country you could have done it legally
00:36:00.220but if you don't speak english you're still violating our long-standing safety rules that
00:36:05.660you have to speak english so this is not just about people who have come into the country
00:36:10.580illegally which is a part of it it also involves fraudulent schools right so so so fraudulent
00:36:17.240schools no it hasn't no listen but i'll turn it over to so okay
00:36:24.260So what I've talked to you about are truck driving schools that don't have qualified instructors, that don't have vehicles to train people in, that don't have the area to train a truck driver.
00:36:42.160And then they don't verify that the individual that's going through their school speaks English.
00:36:47.600Now, you've assumed that these are all illegals.
00:37:15.760And then you get behind the wheel and you drive.
00:37:18.400Well, if that person doesn't speak English, how is that state certifier certifying this individual to get a commercial driver's license?
00:37:27.100So, no, this does have to do with those who come into the country illegally, but it also has to do with people who are in the country lawfully, but they're not being trained.
00:37:38.180And they're not following the laws and the rules by which we've set up to keep Americans safe on the roadway.
00:38:40.540They should never be out there because the accident should never take place.
00:38:44.500I look at this as I'm trying to keep my six kids safe on the road when they're out there driving and my one grandchild while they're riding with their parents.
00:38:53.760It's all preventable and they shouldn't be on a roadway.
00:39:44.280And so the advice that's being given to the Secretary of Transportation, to the Secretary of Homeland Security, and even our administration, it still includes some of the people who designed the actual system that allowed them in in the first place.
00:39:58.020Let's talk about this, because this is all about driving down wages.
00:40:00.700This is about flooding the labor market with the illegal aliens.
00:40:04.420And look, I got a problem with people here legally.
00:40:07.060I don't think they ought to be competing against American citizens.
00:40:38.820When a commercial motor vehicle has an accident and the officers arrive on the scene to do the investigation, they don't include on the crash reports the immigration status of the driver.
00:40:49.420In fact, state law enforcement officers are not allowed to investigate immigration status of a truck driver because that's a federal law.
00:40:58.960And so there's never been any checks or investigations.
00:41:02.180That's why we've been calling for statewide enforcement of of our our commercial motor vehicle enforcement officers partnering with ICE through 287G agreements so that they can be deputized and trained to enforce immigration laws.
00:41:17.200And then we can include that information. So the number that they gave that's one percent.
00:41:21.500Hang on. Hang on, Shannon. Shannon, hang on. Hang on. Hang on.
00:41:24.660I know it's are you telling me just I want to make sure the artist understands this.
00:41:28.960If a state trooper or local cop shows up and there's been some wreck when they're interviewing people about how it went on, they're not they're restricted by law.
00:41:39.080Is it just custom? Is it law that says they can't ask the immigration status of the driver, sir?
00:41:47.040Yeah. But yeah, the immigration is a federal law.
00:41:49.460And so they do not investigate the immigration status of the driver in any of these accidents.
00:41:54.660it's unbelievable i'm gonna go to break i just want one thing we've been they all talk about
00:42:01.900illegal aliens just take a minute we got 90 seconds why do we allow why would we even allow
00:42:08.900quote unquote on all the scam immigration programs why will we allow those people to come over and
00:42:14.420get licensed to compete against american citizens there should be no competition for american
00:42:19.580citizens that want to be truck drivers. Why do we even, why is it even acceptable to even think
00:42:25.700about letting the quote unquote legal, which are all scams, aliens here compete against American
00:42:32.600truck drivers, sir? That it's never been designed for that. So the whole process of these illegal
00:42:39.900alien truck drivers coming into the system have been coming in through loopholes. And these
00:42:44.280loopholes, no one has been exposing those or working against those until we stood up American
00:42:48.780Truckers United. Our own trade associations were actively campaigning for more immigration and more
00:42:54.640immigration into the trucking industry. And so these loopholes or these misinterpretations of
00:43:00.380the law were expanded. The non-domicile CDL, for example, the way that all these illegal alien
00:43:06.440truck drivers received the non-domicile CDL was through a misinterpretation of the rule that said
00:43:11.620that they could use EAD cards or these employment authorization documents that were handed to all
00:43:16.780of the illegal aliens as a proper work visa when they went and applied for the license when you
00:43:21.960talk about the mexican truck drivers that are coming up that are supposedly connected to usmca
00:43:26.640and are allowed to operate on our highways they're using mexican cds hang on hang on one second we're
00:43:34.180getting to all this we got to get this thing sorted this is not acceptable short break
00:43:38.180october 15th or as we say in the war room 15 october as we head towards that date that's the
00:43:45.180extension deadline for the IRS. Here's something most Americans do not realize. The IRS already
00:43:52.660has a file on you. Every W-2, every 1099, every piece of tax information that's being reported
00:43:59.100to the government is sitting in what's called your IRS master file. The question is, do you
00:44:05.240know what's in it before you file your return? That's why I want you to check out our friends
00:45:31.000That's a direct hotline set up by Chapter, the data company that's already saved the Warren Posse well over a million dollars on figuring out their Medicare, but most importantly, get you in an optimum plan.
00:45:43.400This is a data company that came outside the health care consultant business.
00:45:51.260They set up, and the feedback we got is overwhelming, 845-WAR-ROOM.
00:45:55.500Also, with all the changes to Obamacare and the subsidies going away, America's health share, go to freedomforhealth.org slash Bannon.
00:46:05.960This is a whole different way to think about medical insurance, okay?
00:46:10.340It's going to take some due diligence on your part, but the feedback we have from people is incredibly positive, and you talk to management.
00:46:17.180Go to freedomforhealth.org slash Bannon.
00:46:20.280Now, you get the first month free, but that's not the reason to make the switch.
00:46:24.380You have to understand this, but the information there and senior management will walk you through all of it.
00:46:30.040Feedback we've gotten from people is they absolutely love it. Go check it out today.
00:46:34.360Shannon, we just got a couple of minutes. I just want to go back.
00:46:36.660I just want to make sure I'm being heard here. They keep talking about illegal aliens, illegal aliens, one percent.
00:46:41.660We know the data is all screwed up, but it's a much bigger picture.
00:46:44.600There should be no – the trucking industry and the companies, there should be no legal, quote-unquote, with the H1Bs and all the scams that we have 90 million, quote-unquote, legal immigrants here, right, which we should have a 10-year moratorium that should get a CDL and compete against an American driver.
00:47:05.080We should just have a policy that if you ain't an American citizen, you cannot get a commercial driver's license and compete against America.
00:47:14.060Is that too hard to ask? Is there enough Americans to fill these jobs right now, sir?
00:47:19.920Absolutely. You heard from Secretary Duffy during his announcement that there is no driver shortage, that there's American truck drivers that want to fill these jobs.
00:47:27.300We've had a ton of American truck drivers that have been forced out of the industry because they can't compete with all of these illegal agents and the migrants that have come over lawfully.
00:47:37.960And so what this is is corporate America, Wall Street, has really tried to suppress the wages of the American truck driver for profit.
00:47:46.680They're trying to milk as much as they can off of the system, and they're using immigration as a tool to do that.
00:47:51.840And in doing so, they have made our highways safer.
00:47:54.520And we know this to be a fact because when you look at the crashes that we've identified that involve these truck drivers that were improperly licensed, not trained, not qualified, not vetted, they all go back to these Wall Street freight brokerages.
00:48:06.620And so that's been the fight through all of this.
00:48:09.700When we first when we first started pushing for Delilah's law, we called for no immigration.
00:48:14.380Like everyone should have a lawful status here in the United States.
00:48:17.840And the compromise, though, was, hey, we'll never get this passed if you don't put in H1B, if you don't put in H2B and put all that stuff.
00:48:24.880We're completely fine having none of that in there.
00:48:28.500The American trucking industry was never this dangerous when you had American truck drivers driving the trucks because they can be held accountable.
00:48:35.040One of the biggest arguments for having American citizens driving the truck, obviously, is national security.
00:48:42.380They're hauling our military equipment.
00:48:44.120And so you want trusted people from a trusted society hauling those goods.
00:48:48.460But the other factor is accountability.
00:48:50.440When these guys are in accidents, they can, just like in the case with Delilah Coleman, when the guy had the accident, instead of being held accountable, he fled back to India.
00:49:01.020And so they form up these shell companies.
00:49:03.300We call them chameleon trucking companies.
00:49:05.620They form up these shells that have no balance sheets.
00:49:30.700And they're killing American citizens.
00:49:32.620This is not hard. Shannon, I want people to go because you started this organization to fight for American truck drivers, citizens of this country that are truck drivers.
00:49:42.380Where do people go? What's your social media? We're going to have you back on to go through the program.
00:49:46.660You guys recommend it. How sort this mess out. But it's unacceptable.
00:49:50.440Not simply illegal aliens. If they're here under any of these scam legal programs, they cannot become a truck driver.
00:49:59.000OK, because you can't catch them. If they kill somebody, they're going to leave the country.
00:50:02.620and you can't get them civilly where do people go right now shannon ever to get all the information
00:50:07.400about this unbelievable topic it blows my mind we're even talking about this a couple years
