Rebel News Podcast - One of Trudeau’s “fake” refugees to face immigration hearing — in the year 2030

00:00:00.000 Tonight, a fake immigrant who illegally walked across the border will face an immigration

00:00:04.880 hearing now in the year 2030. I wish I were joking. It's October 5th and this is The Ezra LeVant Show.

00:00:17.660 Why should others go to jail when you're a biggest carbon consumer I know?

00:00:21.420 There's 8,500 customers here and you won't give them an answer.

00:00:25.160 You come here once a year with a sign and you feel morally superior.

00:00:28.140 The only thing I have to say to the government about why I publish it is because it's my bloody right to do so.

00:00:38.740 Did you see my interview with Giddy Mammon, the immigration lawyer, last week?

00:00:43.320 He describes what happens to those fake refugees who are just walking across the border illegally from the United States.

00:00:50.540 And yes, it is illegal. It's not irregular. Irregular is what happens if you don't eat enough fiber.

00:00:57.120 Irregular, illegal, is what happens when you break the law.

00:01:00.120 Do you see that big sign there that says, stop, arrêtez?

00:01:04.400 That's at the unguarded border between Canada and the United States.

00:01:08.540 In this case, it's the end of Roxham Road.

00:01:11.400 It's Quebec on one side and New York on the other side.

00:01:13.760 Do you see it says stop? And then do you see right underneath, it says,

00:01:17.120 it is illegal to cross the border here or any place other than a port of enter.

00:01:20.980 Do you see that? Yeah, it doesn't say irregular.

00:01:24.580 That's a euphemism. Euphemism comes from the Greek language.

00:01:28.980 It means using a word that sounds nicer than a thing actually is.

00:01:33.080 So a euphemism is itself actually a euphemism for a lie, isn't it?

00:01:38.000 It's just a lie to say that these folks are irregular.

00:01:42.220 They are not just crossing illegally, but it's illegal to claim you're a refugee if you're coming from America.

00:01:50.660 Here is something called the Safe Third Country Agreement.

00:01:53.980 It is a treaty between Canada and the United States.

00:01:57.340 In a nutshell, it says you can't be in Canada and try to claim refugee status in the United States.

00:02:02.680 And you can't be in the United States and try to claim refugee status in Canada.

00:02:06.640 As in, both countries recognize that if you're in the other country, you're safe already, guys.

00:02:11.900 You literally cannot be a refugee fleeing New York.

00:02:16.180 You literally cannot be a refugee fleeing from Quebec because there's nothing to flee from.

00:02:21.480 It's just not true. It's not true in common sense.

00:02:24.360 It's not true factually.

00:02:25.480 And the treaty makes it clear it's not true in law.

00:02:28.400 So are you surprised at all that Trudeau has his staff go through all the government websites?

00:02:34.100 Did you see this story the other day?

00:02:36.240 Trudeau's staff are going through the government websites and changing the word illegal to the word irregular.

00:02:42.300 The only thing surprising about that is that the CBC actually reported it.

00:02:45.820 But not only have tens of thousands of people just walked across from New York State claiming to be refugees,

00:02:51.440 including many who had already applied to be refugees in the U.S.

00:02:54.820 and were rejected there, and many in the U.S. who were worried they were about to be deported by Donald Trump,

00:03:00.840 so they came up here knowing they'd have a better chance under Trudeau than under Trump.

00:03:04.240 But actual criminals are coming up here, too.

00:03:06.740 Same reason they know Trudeau is soft on crime.

00:03:09.040 Of course he is.

00:03:09.500 Look at this headline here.

00:03:11.240 Registered sex offender slipped into Canada through illegal Quebec crossing.

00:03:15.340 At least they said illegal this time, eh?

00:03:16.980 He slipped, guys.

00:03:17.960 It's so slippery there.

00:03:19.380 It's like you've got all these banana peels, and then the ball bearings, and it's like oily.

00:03:25.220 It's so slippy.

00:03:28.420 Let me read a little bit from it.

00:03:29.780 A registered sex offender from Texas is in custody in Canada after slipping through a well-known illegal border crossing in Quebec.

00:03:37.740 Guys, it's so slippery.

00:03:39.860 Adesanya Prince pleaded guilty to child pornography charges February 23rd in Houston. 0.82

00:03:44.000 He was out on bond, awaiting sentencing on May 10th, but instead fled to Canada.

00:03:49.680 Hey, guys, he slipped.

00:03:50.780 Look, it can happen to anybody.

00:03:52.440 Careful out there, guys.

00:03:53.440 It's slippery.

00:03:55.180 No, he did not slip.

00:03:56.560 He strode.

00:03:57.480 He walked with his head held high.

00:03:59.140 And like all illegals, he wasn't turned back. 1.00

00:04:02.200 He was welcomed.

00:04:03.560 He was...

00:04:03.960 Look at these cops.

00:04:04.820 So helpful.

00:04:05.700 So helpful.

00:04:06.340 Yeah, can I give you a hand?

00:04:07.260 I'll carry your bags for you.

00:04:10.040 They're giving free food.

00:04:11.220 You know, welcome to Canada.

00:04:15.240 In 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. 0.98

00:04:25.640 I think that's what this story means.

00:04:27.420 I've read it twice.

00:04:28.780 Let me quote.

00:04:30.200 Refugee claimant guilty of assault for spitting on immigration officer.

00:04:34.400 Incident happened at BC border crossing involving Ronald Dawson.

00:04:38.520 Oh, it sounds like we're getting the best people, aren't we?

00:04:41.560 It sounds like the perfect guy for Drew Trudeau's immigration policy.

00:04:45.280 But he's not someone fleeing a Trump deportation order.

00:04:47.860 Because he can't be deported because he's a citizen.

00:04:50.040 He's not someone who just flew in from Nigeria to JFK Airport in New York and then took a cab up to the border.

00:04:55.540 The newspaper quotes the judge in Canada, Nathan Smith.

00:04:59.380 Mr. Dawson is a citizen of the United States.

00:05:03.340 And that, frankly, is all that I know about him because he has declined to make any submissions on this sentence hearing, said Smith.

00:05:09.380 Although I ordered a pre-sentence report, he declined to cooperate with or speak to the probation officer.

00:05:16.180 Dawson has been in custody awaiting trial for seven months.

00:05:18.780 He was sentenced to six months behind bars, meaning he would normally have been free to go.

00:05:23.540 However, Smith noted Dawson is still in custody on an immigration hold while his refugee claim is being processed.

00:05:30.380 Hey, guys, he's American.

00:05:31.860 He's not even someone coming in from a bad place, passing through America.

00:05:37.260 The safe third party agreement would stop that or it should.

00:05:40.560 He's an American.

00:05:42.360 There are no refugees from America.

00:05:45.620 But we're so stupid up here, we will take anyone under Trudeau.

00:05:48.600 Here's Trudeau's state broadcaster making the case for some foreigner stuck in an airport in Malaysia.

00:05:57.140 Look at this.

00:05:57.780 Syrian refugees stranded in an airport for seven months, arrested by Malaysian authorities.

00:06:03.800 Group from Whistler, B.C., had been fighting to bring Hassan Al-Khantar to Canada.

00:06:10.580 But he's not a refugee.

00:06:13.820 Turkish airlines refused to let him get on their flight.

00:06:16.700 I'd like to hear the whole story behind that, wouldn't you?

00:06:19.340 But he's apparently a successful businessman who spent years in United Arab Emirates, Dubai kind of thing, Abu Dhabi.

00:06:27.280 Let me read from this weird propaganda story in Trudeau's state broadcaster.

00:06:32.240 A Syrian man who has been living in the transit area of Kuala Lumpur Airport since March has been arrested by Malaysian authorities.

00:06:40.440 Hassan 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.

00:06:49.220 Since 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.

00:07:01.800 Al-Khantar, who is from Dhamma, Syria, worked as an insurance marketing manager in the United Arab Emirates from 2006 to 2017.

00:07:10.160 He was arrested on Monday, Malaysia's New Straits Times newspaper reported.

00:07:15.560 So just to be clear, in case you missed it, there is no connection to Canada.

00:07:20.940 He is not from Syria, or at least he hasn't been in a dozen years.

00:07:25.740 He missed the whole civil war.

00:07:28.360 He's obviously well off.

00:07:30.000 He's a marketing manager in Dubai.

00:07:31.960 And you just know that Trudeau's going to take him, because Trudeau takes anyone in the whole world, at least if they're Muslim, it seems. 0.56

00:07:39.960 Syria is safer now, by the way. 0.99

00:07:42.060 Syrian refugees are streaming home.

00:07:44.200 At least the ones living in places like Lebanon and Jordan, they're going back now. 1.00

00:07:47.940 The war is over.

00:07:48.820 And that is a good thing.

00:07:51.600 Why would we bring this guy to Whistler?

00:07:55.260 Other than to Virtue Signal?

00:07:57.000 How about we just buy him a ticket to Dubai?

00:07:59.200 And why doesn't he buy his own ticket to Dubai?

00:08:05.280 Or how about going back to Syria? 0.59

00:08:08.720 I mean, I get it.

00:08:09.560 Syria's a crappy place. 1.00

00:08:11.220 If you're Canadian, it's a crappy place. 1.00

00:08:12.800 I wouldn't want to go there.

00:08:13.520 But if you're Syrian, it's your country. 1.00

00:08:15.940 Even though this guy hasn't lived there in a dozen years, go home and rebuild your country.

00:08:20.440 What a joke.

00:08:21.640 But if you think that's a joke, and if you think letting an American citizen apply for refugee status is a joke,

00:08:27.620 after he spits on our border guard?

00:08:31.000 If you think taking in convicted U.S. criminals is a bad joke, it's slippery, though, guys.

00:08:37.000 Well, here's the biggest laugh of your day.

00:08:38.520 It's from the leading French-language newspaper in Quebec, published by our friends at Quebeco.

00:08:42.780 It's the Journal de Montréal.

00:08:45.260 Let me read it in French for a second.

00:08:46.900 Un demandeur d'asile reçoit une convocation pour 2030.

00:08:52.740 All right, forgive me, my French.

00:08:53.880 I won't say anything more in French.

00:08:55.140 In English, that means a demander of asylum receives his hearing summons for the year 2030.

00:09:02.500 2030.

00:09:05.160 As in, he has to come back to court, which will then decide if he's a refugee or not.

00:09:11.840 Spoiler alert, he's not.

00:09:15.120 But he's allowed just to kick back in Canada on welfare and free housing,

00:09:19.260 maybe one of Trudeau's refugee camps and hotels, for 12 years.

00:09:23.660 Let me put the article through Google Translate to save you my painful French.

00:09:28.820 This is a machine translation.

00:09:30.440 It's not perfect, but it's understandable.

00:09:32.400 Let me read it.

00:09:32.960 I'll mop up a little bit of the clunky translations.

00:09:35.300 But this is accurately what it says.

00:09:36.560 It says,

00:09:36.760 Immigration'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.

00:09:53.340 It states that the claimant must go to the Immigration and Refugee Board at Complexe Guy Favreau in Montreal on January 1st, 2030.

00:10:02.620 There is a public servant who sleeps on the switch because on the one hand, January 1 is a holiday.

00:10:07.980 And on the other hand, waiting times for a hearing are 12 to 18 months.

00:10:11.060 Certainly not 12 years old, says Hanfield, who points out that he may be retired himself in 2030.

00:10:17.600 Ha! 0.89

00:10:18.980 So if this fake refugee actually shows up on January 1st, 2030, of course the office can be closed. 1.00

00:10:27.060 No problem.

00:10:27.740 They'll just probably ask him to come back for the next available slot 12 years after that in the year 2042.

00:10:33.320 Or maybe his children or grandchildren can come back then.

00:10:36.040 And by the way, he's lawfully allowed to be in Canada under Trudeau until then.

00:10:41.380 Now the Journal de Montréal says the whole thing may be not fake, but a deliberate lie told by the Trudeau government.

00:10:50.440 Let me read this part.

00:10:51.100 This is interesting.

00:10:53.020 According to the lawyer, in addition to the possible error of an Immigration and Refugee and Citizen Canada officer,

00:10:58.700 it could be that January 1st, 2030, is in fact a fictitious date, a method that the department has used in the past.

00:11:09.180 Really? What does that mean?

00:11:10.960 For example, during the massive arrival of Haitians in 2017, all court dates were set for June 1, 2018.

00:11:19.020 Of course, it was impossible for the court to hear everyone that day, but it allowed to enter a date in the system, said Hanfield.

00:11:25.620 So they're not even serious.

00:11:28.680 They're not even going to have these hearings, is what I'm detecting.

00:11:31.980 It's a fake bureaucracy, just like we have a fake border with a fake sign saying, don't come in.

00:11:37.260 The police aren't doing their jobs.

00:11:38.840 Why should the Immigration and Refugee Board do their jobs?

00:11:41.580 The only people who have to do their jobs is you and me.

00:11:46.860 Because 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. 1.00

00:11:57.220 Stay with us for more.

00:11:58.200 The system is corrupt, and that's what needs to stop.

00:12:17.460 They're saying, if you couldn't hear them, the system is corrupt, and that's why we disrupt.

00:12:33.860 That was a scene from the United States Senate today where professional protesters were coming to jam the gears of democracy. 1.00

00:12:41.540 And 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.

00:12:54.540 Thusly, he said, the very rude elevator screamers are paid professionals, only looking to make senators look bad. 0.76

00:13:03.220 Don't fall for it.

00:13:04.800 Also, look at all the professionally made identical signs paid for by Soros and others.

00:13:10.680 These are not signs made in the basement from love.

00:13:14.360 Troublemakers.

00:13:15.320 Isn't that the truth?

00:13:16.640 And 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.

00:13:36.540 Just take a look at this.

00:13:37.980 Summon to vote.

00:13:39.280 And summon to vote.

00:13:41.320 Let's go watch the vote.

00:13:43.000 Let's go watch the vote.

00:13:44.580 Offices that you wish to communicate with.

00:13:47.800 And offices that you wish to communicate with.

00:13:50.680 I am going to go to Heidi Heitkamp's office.

00:13:53.780 I am going to go to Heidi Heitkamp's office.

00:13:56.820 Why?

00:13:57.640 She's on her side.

00:13:59.700 That is so weird, but that is the style of the alt-left.

00:14:03.740 They have a leader, teacher, camp counselor, whatever, who says something, and they all repeat it back like cult members.

00:14:12.120 That was them getting their instructions.

00:14:14.580 Before going to protest.

00:14:16.120 Well, what exactly happened today?

00:14:18.220 What were they protesting?

00:14:19.800 Did it have the desired effect?

00:14:21.540 One 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.

00:14:32.480 Joining us now via Skype from Chicago is Joel Pollack, senior editor-at-large of Breitbart.com.

00:14:38.340 Joel, great to see you.

00:14:39.840 Good to be with you as well.

00:14:41.240 You are in Chicago, which is the home of the alt-left going back more than a century.

00:14:46.200 The radical left has deep roots in Chicago, deep roots on campuses.

00:14:50.760 But that Chicago-style activism, that campus-style crazy is fully deployed in the Capitol buildings, I think, for the first time ever.

00:14:58.460 Well, 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.

00:15:12.180 He 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.

00:15:23.740 The original elevator screamer, as Trump later called her, was a woman who had not complained previously about a sexual assault. 0.99

00:15:33.520 But 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.

00:15:49.160 So in that sense, it was true.

00:15:50.920 There 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.

00:15:57.940 So strictly speaking, it's true.

00:15:59.580 Now, whether it had the effect intended is another story.

00:16:03.920 We actually think that it may have pushed Susan Collins and Jeff Flake more firmly onto the side of voting for Brett Kavanaugh.

00:16:13.100 Lisa Murkowski, the Republican from Alaska, broke with her party.

00:16:17.020 But 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.

00:16:27.060 And so those protests had a very negative effect with or without the president's tweet on the goal of stopping Brett Kavanaugh.

00:16:36.360 The left really lost its marbles, and I think there were consequences.

00:16:40.780 You know, it's very interesting.

00:16:42.500 I think this whole thing has been a massacre.

00:16:44.540 I 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.

00:17:00.640 And if he floats, he's a witch. 0.56

00:17:02.140 Like, he made, like, it's been so absurd, the process in the Senate.

00:17:06.080 But 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.

00:17:24.780 What do you think of that, Joel?

00:17:26.400 Well, it still is.

00:17:27.380 I mean, just moments ago, after Collins finished her speech, first of all, while she was speaking, her office was occupied by left-wing protesters.

00:17:35.380 And before she started speaking in the Senate gallery, they were shouting at her, which is illegal.

00:17:40.900 You cannot voice opinions for or against anything or anyone from the Senate gallery.

00:17:45.980 But 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.

00:18:07.260 That was broadcast on live television.

00:18:10.040 People 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.

00:18:22.360 They're willing to occupy Senate offices.

00:18:25.100 They're willing to threaten.

00:18:26.900 Some 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.

00:18:32.460 I 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.

00:18:42.200 Before, Democrats were motivated to vote mostly because out of dislike of Trump, and Republicans were somewhat complacent or undecided.

00:18:49.980 The 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.

00:18:59.740 So that's the effect of what they're doing, but they can't help themselves.

00:19:04.200 The mob runs the Democratic Party.

00:19:05.940 They just keep doing it.

00:19:07.160 Yeah.

00:19:07.500 You know, it really is the campus-style insanity.

00:19:10.840 I remember the riots in Berkeley when Milo Yiannopoulos wanted to speak there, and it was so shocking to see riots and Antifa violence.

00:19:21.100 And 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.

00:19:34.100 Just this casual violence is only one inch further than these mobs.

00:19:40.780 I 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.

00:20:10.780 All 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.

00:20:27.600 They 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.

00:20:39.840 And the media would have described it as such.

00:20:43.460 Instead, I think they empathized with the protesters and allowed this to happen.

00:20:48.040 I think the pressure people feel on this doesn't need to be violent for it to have a really powerful effect.

00:20:55.500 It means people are less likely to say publicly that they support Kavanaugh or support the president.

00:20:59.680 But 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.

00:21:11.740 Well, that's a very good point.

00:21:12.780 When 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.

00:21:31.120 So he said he's going to vote for Kavanaugh.

00:21:34.460 I think that in his own heart he would support Kavanaugh, but also he wants to be re-elected.

00:21:39.120 When 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.

00:22:08.460 I think people can start to imagine how they would be un-personed and mobbed if they engaged in wrong think, too.

00:22:17.800 I think people are scared.

00:22:19.080 There's almost a Maoist group denunciation cultishness to it.

00:22:23.900 That call and response, Joel, that felt like a cult.

00:22:29.760 Yeah, and you mentioned campuses.

00:22:32.840 The protests we're seeing are very similar to protests on college campus.

00:22:37.220 The 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.

00:22:51.280 That'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.

00:23:06.780 In many cases, it's just an accuser's word against the accused.

00:23:09.820 But we have this sort of sham judicial process going on quietly on campuses all the time.

00:23:15.200 And suddenly, it was blown up for the entire nation to see.

00:23:17.520 And I think people were upset by it.

00:23:19.080 There are moves by the Trump administration to stop campuses from doing that.

00:23:23.060 But that's what took over the country for the last two weeks.

00:23:27.280 And I think people are reacting negatively to it.

00:23:29.620 Yeah.

00:23:31.040 It's very interesting.

00:23:32.320 Let's talk for a second about what's going on in the official processes of the Senate.

00:23:40.040 Most of our viewers, Joel, are Canadian.

00:23:42.480 And we don't have nominations and vettings and confirmations as you do in the States.

00:23:49.440 The prime minister can unilaterally make an appointment, and that's that.

00:23:53.300 There's no advice and consent needed from our Senate, which itself is appointed.

00:23:58.000 But if I understand correctly, what happened today is the Republicans in the full Senate

00:24:05.500 put forward a motion to close off debate.

00:24:08.600 Is that correct?

00:24:09.200 You call it a cloture?

00:24:10.260 Is that what it's called?

00:24:11.160 We call it closure up here.

00:24:13.340 And so that's setting the procedural schedule for an actual substantive vote on Kavanaugh this weekend.

00:24:20.200 Is that correct?

00:24:21.740 Yes.

00:24:22.240 Once they invoke a cloture, they have to vote on the final passage of the motion.

00:24:27.460 In this case, the motion to confirm within 30 hours.

00:24:31.100 They can't do it until that 30-hour mark is reached.

00:24:34.100 But within 30 hours, they can do it.

00:24:36.620 Or after the 30 hours, they have to vote.

00:24:39.820 So it's a way of closing debate.

00:24:42.560 The term filibuster comes from a process of keeping the debate open.

00:24:46.260 But thanks to Democrats taking advantage of their temporary majority several years ago,

00:24:52.860 there is no longer a filibuster on judicial nominees.

00:24:56.000 So the Democrats could not stop that cloture vote from passing by simple majority.

00:25:02.060 And now we will see a vote tomorrow afternoon, Saturday afternoon, on the confirmation of Brett Kavanaugh.

00:25:07.540 And it looks like he will win that by one or two votes.

00:25:10.700 Now, we all saw Senator Flake.

00:25:15.420 And what's in the name?

00:25:16.400 I tell you, he's flip-flopped so much here.

00:25:18.420 He was the one caught in the elevator, as you mentioned, and screamed at by a Soros employee.

00:25:24.180 And that had the effect of having him at least temporarily change his mind.

00:25:29.600 Has he returned to the Republican fold?

00:25:33.320 Will he be supporting Brett Kavanaugh?

00:25:35.900 And if he has flipped back, was it the excesses of the last 24 hours that made him do so?

00:25:41.860 I think some of it was the excesses.

00:25:43.640 He is supporting Kavanaugh.

00:25:44.560 I think the other part was that he got what he wanted.

00:25:48.060 He wanted the FBI investigation.

00:25:50.040 And the FBI investigated, and they found there was no corroborating evidence.

00:25:53.960 And that was it.

00:25:54.540 I think he would look foolish if he voted no after getting exactly the investigation he had asked for.

00:25:59.260 And I think he's basically bound by the fact that they stopped the entire business of the country for him.

00:26:05.720 So I think if he then voted no, and the investigation turned up nothing, I think it would look very bad.

00:26:11.180 And I think he has plans for a political future.

00:26:12.980 He may want to run against Trump from the center as an alternative Republican candidate, maybe even as an independent in 2020.

00:26:20.360 And I think he knows that if he defeated Kavanaugh's nomination, he would not get the support he needs.

00:26:26.620 Very interesting.

00:26:27.460 Is Kavanaugh himself, I mean, I've never seen anything like this.

00:26:33.640 I don't think any American has either.

00:26:35.440 What was interesting to me was that Kavanaugh answered more questions, both orally and in writing,

00:26:42.680 than every single previous Supreme Court nominee since America was founded combined.

00:26:50.160 He answered more questions than all of the others combined.

00:26:53.560 He met every possible test, seven FBI investigations over his career because, of course, he had other previous lower court appointments.

00:27:03.300 Will he be able to be a judge now?

00:27:08.620 I 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.

00:27:17.800 But what does it mean now that he's been toxified by all the sludge thrown at him by the left?

00:27:24.400 I don't even know what it means.

00:27:25.560 I mean, Clarence Thomas has basically been silent on the bench ever since he was appointed.

00:27:30.040 He's been an outstanding judge.

00:27:31.480 He's been silent, but that's his demeanor, his personality.

00:27:36.760 He's been a solidly conservative vote.

00:27:38.720 He's probably been the most conservative of all the nine.

00:27:41.740 And you have to think that Kavanaugh is now liberated to be more conservative.

00:27:45.160 He doesn't have to impress anybody anymore because he was so badly mistreated.

00:27:49.680 He's got nothing to lose.

00:27:50.560 I think he'll be a very good justice, but he'll also be, in a sense, liberated to be a conservative justice.

00:27:54.840 And 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.

00:28:12.980 I think he's better than that.

00:28:13.960 I think he'll rise above us.

00:28:15.300 I still think he'll be a fair justice, and he wrote that in the Wall Street Journal today.

00:28:18.500 But I think people are complaining now that he can't be impartial or that he's going to be too partisan.

00:28:23.620 I 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.

00:28:33.540 And 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.

00:28:38.820 Yeah, they came to destroy him.

00:28:40.720 Well, Joel Pollack, I'm grateful for your time.

00:28:42.300 I know you're on the road, so I appreciate you giving us into your schedule.

00:28:45.560 Great to see you.

00:28:46.920 We'll look with great interest.

00:28:48.280 And so let me close with a 10-second question.

00:28:50.820 Is it your prediction that by this time tomorrow, Brett Kavanaugh will be an associate justice of the Supreme Court of the United States?

00:29:00.220 Well, he'll still have to be sworn in.

00:29:02.020 But yes, I think he'll show up in a robe on Monday morning and take his place in the empty seat of former Justice Anthony Kennedy.

00:29:08.940 And we will once again have nine judges on the court, full contingent of judges.

00:29:15.800 And things will not be back to normal, but they will be as they ought to be.

00:29:20.900 There you have it.

00:29:21.580 Joel Pollack, great to see you.

00:29:22.660 Thanks for your time.

00:29:24.400 Thank you.

00:29:25.140 All right.

00:29:25.740 That's Joel Pollack.

00:29:26.660 He's the senior editor-at-large at Breitbart.com.

00:29:30.180 Stay with us.

00:29:30.940 More ahead on the road.

00:29:31.600 Hey, welcome back.

00:29:44.320 On my monologues yesterday about a violent far leftist named Jordan Hunt, roundhouse kicking a pro-life woman to the ground in Toronto.

00:29:51.280 Jan writes,

00:29:51.860 It wasn't any sense of decency, he cried.

00:29:54.760 It was fear of being caught.

00:29:57.460 Well, you're exactly right.

00:29:59.040 He, I mean, what kind of a fool would resort to violence anyways?

00:30:03.140 You've got to be a double fool to resort to violence when you're being filmed.

00:30:06.220 And 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.

00:30:13.980 And then I guess a quadruple layer of folly would be to think that that is somehow acceptable.

00:30:20.020 But 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.

00:30:26.260 This is the dumbest guy around.

00:30:27.640 Now, I should tell you that yesterday, I told you about four times I wasn't sure if that Twitter account was legit.

00:30:35.020 Today, I'm even more skeptical that it was legit because it was just too caricatured.

00:30:40.920 And I saw someone make the case online that it was a fake account.

00:30:47.700 But that doesn't change what we saw on video, did it?

00:30:50.720 And it actually didn't change how he described himself as an all natural witch or whatever on his barbershop page.

00:30:59.320 So I'm going to say those tweets he did about how I'm going to keep kicking women till we get women's rights. 1.00

00:31:06.300 Those were so over the top.

00:31:07.740 I think they're fake.

00:31:08.300 But the rest of it was absolutely real.

00:31:10.040 And that video of the roundhouse kick was absolutely real.

00:31:14.660 Yeah, stupid, sure.

00:31:16.600 But unfortunately, that is the way the world's going in terms of political violence, isn't it?

00:31:23.180 And why do the male feminists always punch women? 1.00

00:31:26.420 I mean, why not punch a guy?

00:31:28.080 Don't punch anyone.

00:31:29.940 But if you're going to punch someone, why you punch a woman? 0.83

00:31:32.460 Why you punch a young girl? 0.96

00:31:33.780 It's the same question I would have for Dion Buse, who punched our Sheila Gunnery.

00:31:38.000 Why are you doing that?

00:31:40.120 Don't punch anybody.

00:31:41.920 Ted writes,

00:31:42.520 Well, I think that a lot of wise people have said this in more articulate ways than I'm about to do.

00:32:09.500 But laws only work if you have a moral citizenry.

00:32:14.520 If all that's keeping your society from barbarity is laws written in the book, it ain't going to help you.

00:32:23.560 You need the law to accurately reflect the morality of the people.

00:32:27.560 And you need to inculcate the people with that morality.

00:32:30.640 One way of looking at it is who has said that we have 18 years to civilize these little barbarians from the moment they're born. 0.77

00:32:38.980 We have 18 years to impart to them all our knowledge and wisdom and culture and restraint.

00:32:43.800 Because they're born little barbarians, aren't they? 1.00

00:32:46.020 Little babies.

00:32:46.860 They take things.

00:32:47.820 They do what they want.

00:32:48.880 We have 18 years to train these folks to have some sort of moral code.

00:32:53.480 Maybe less than 18 years.

00:32:54.680 Another 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.

00:33:06.940 Whereas, for example, the United Kingdom has never had the same sort of written constitution, yet which place was freer?

00:33:13.920 And my whole point of saying, Ezra, what are you talking about, kids?

00:33:18.460 You're talking about babies?

00:33:19.460 You're talking about a Soviet Union?

00:33:20.700 Here's my point.

00:33:21.940 Is 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.

00:33:31.800 99.9% of the time, we are our own law enforcers.

00:33:36.540 We govern ourselves.

00:33:38.520 If we weren't, we would need a police state where every second person was a cop enforcing the law.

00:33:44.560 And then you'd need cops to enforce cops, wouldn't you?

00:33:48.480 We have self-government in 99.9% of the ways.

00:33:52.500 And only when someone breaks from that social contract does the law come in with a policeman.

00:33:57.960 And 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.

00:34:14.180 I think it's probably social media.

00:34:15.520 He 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.

00:34:25.900 He has been taught that there is an asterisk, a footnote, an exception to the law if you really feel passionate about it.

00:34:34.440 That's the problem here, is that we no longer self-govern because someone has taught us we don't have to.

00:34:40.180 That's what I'm scared about.

00:34:42.320 On my interview with Chris Austin, the leader of the People's Alliance of New Brunswick, Liza writes,

00:34:46.080 Well, I was really glad to talk with him.

00:34:59.340 And I don't think I'm telling tales out of school, but after we turned the cameras off, he said he read one of my books.

00:35:03.680 I said, which one? I thought he was going to say Ethical Oil.

00:35:05.620 No, but he said it was my book called Shakedown about free speech and civil rights and human rights commissions.

00:35:11.760 I thought, whoa, this guy's the real deal.

00:35:15.540 Jimmy writes,

00:35:16.620 As an alleged affront for Trump, Israel, Russia, and a disinformation agent against Canada's interests and acting like a whiny fat,

00:35:25.060 oh, there's some bad words in there,

00:35:26.720 that Breitbart and the Koch brothers allegedly pay for.

00:35:29.580 Would the lying, more bad words, Ezra self-deport?

00:35:33.140 Will Ezra self-deport?

00:35:34.780 Would the loser and alleged spy fight deportation or cooperate?

00:35:38.380 After all, he owes Canada.

00:35:39.980 We paid for his education and health care.

00:35:42.080 Had we deported the lying, fat, little, there's so many bad words here,

00:35:45.800 to the land of his dreams.

00:35:47.760 What, Disneyland?

00:35:49.580 You deported me to Disneyland again?

00:35:52.500 To the land of his dreams, decades ago, would we have not been better served?

00:35:56.100 I'm going to support a bill in the House of Commons to seize assets of traitors

00:36:00.680 and offer them a bus ticket south or an economy seat to the east.

00:36:04.880 How far east?

00:36:06.540 Or jail time.

00:36:08.040 Won't you sign my petition?

00:36:11.440 Jimmy, there's so much in there.

00:36:13.520 There's so much in there.

00:36:17.380 I would be open to taking, like, I don't really like bus rides that much,

00:36:22.020 but I'd be open, and when you say to the east,

00:36:24.220 do you mean, like, Halifax east?

00:36:28.020 Or further east, like, Middle East?

00:36:32.000 Because I might be open to that, but you can't deport me, Jimmy,

00:36:35.540 because I am a natural-born Canadian citizen,

00:36:38.440 as was my pappy and his pappy before me.

00:36:40.520 You've got to go back, like, four generations in the Levant 0.99

00:36:43.000 before you can deport someone.

00:36:44.560 And that would send me back to the Dnepropetrovsk in Ukraine.

00:36:50.380 And I would take a ticket there.

00:36:53.620 I've never been.

00:36:54.520 I'm curious.

00:36:56.000 You know, it was one of those dreary Stalinist cities

00:36:59.180 for half a century under Soviet domination,

00:37:02.060 but it's probably perked up now.

00:37:04.100 So, yeah, a little bit of fan mail just to end the week.

00:37:08.780 Jimmy, I'm glad you're writing.

00:37:14.020 It's just, don't lose that passion.

00:37:15.620 Don't lose that passion, buddy.

00:37:17.180 Don't lose the passion.

00:37:17.880 And we added out some of the worst swears.

00:37:20.020 I want to tell you, we have a swear jar here in the office.

00:37:22.580 Maybe I've told you that before.

00:37:23.880 It's actually bigger than a jar.

00:37:25.460 We call it a swear bucket.

00:37:26.660 And occasionally, there is some cussing that goes on here.

00:37:29.400 But we've tried to make lemonade out of lemons.

00:37:32.480 And at least for me, if I do use some bad words,

00:37:36.660 I put a dollar in the swear bucket.

00:37:39.340 And there's a certain swear, if I say it, I put two dollars in.

00:37:43.400 And we use that to pay for the staff Christmas get-together.

00:37:48.520 So we try and do good things when there is some fussing about cussing.

00:37:53.420 That's it for today and for the weekend.

00:37:55.760 We do have a new show for you on Thanksgiving Monday.

00:37:59.000 So make sure you tune in for that.

00:38:00.160 And, of course, we'll have YouTube videos up all weekend and keep poking around.

00:38:04.580 If you haven't yet visited a new site I set up called realreporters.uk,

00:38:08.380 you'll see what I'm cooking up in the United Kingdom.

00:38:10.840 Until next time, on behalf of all of us here at Rebel World Headquarters,

00:38:14.000 to you at home, including to you, Jimmy,

00:38:15.980 goodbye and keep fighting for freedom.

00:38:30.160 And that's because of your week's
