00:00:00.000I'm Alex Marlowe, editor-in-chief of Breitbart News, and I'm in for Charlie yet again.
00:00:04.000And on this episode, we speak to Drew Hernandez live from Yuma, Arizona on one of the broadcasts on yesterday's show.
00:00:12.000We spoke to Savannah Hernandez from a checkpoint in an actual point of entry in Texas.
00:00:17.000We're getting another element of the border crisis in this episode with Drew Hernandez from Turning Points Frontlines live from Yuma, but he's not at a checkpoint.
00:00:27.000He's one of those in-between areas where you're seeing the real gnarly stuff that goes down as part of this illegal alien massive migration cycle that we're in.
00:00:37.000Contrasting those is really important, and Drew always gives a hard-hitting report.
00:00:41.000Then we do a huge news roundup covering the 2024 presidential race, which is taking shape, some surprises that just broke, and the insidious nature of the trans panic is somehow getting worse despite the best efforts by folks like Charlie and me and others.
00:00:57.000And the powers that be, just encouraging massive consumer culture to make us all much, much fatter.
00:01:22.000His spirit, his love of this country, he's done an amazing job building one of the most powerful youth organizations ever created, Turning Point USA.
00:01:31.000We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country.
00:01:43.000One thing that's going on in the CNN newsroom is their leadership is under fire after the disastrous Trump Town Hall.
00:01:50.000It's noteworthy because they pulled huge ratings and they were the center of a conversation, which if one thing you've learned from President Trump is that he's clearly of the mind that all press is good press.
00:02:01.000And if you embrace that, then wasn't this all good press for CNN?
00:02:06.000It seems like because all of the wokesters within their newsroom and many without outside of the newsroom were acting as though this was a horrible thing for a news network to platform Donald Trump, who got to say whatever he wanted for the most part.
00:02:22.000And there was very little defense CNN could put up other than to fact check in real time, which went very poorly both during the town hall and afterwards.
00:02:32.000And what is left of CNN's audience, I don't know what that is.
00:02:35.000I mean, CNN's audience just who watches.
00:02:39.000Is it just people in airports, I guess?
00:02:48.000They're going to give Caitlin Collins the Don Lamoan slot at 9 p.m.
00:02:52.000So we can expect more of this from the future, I think.
00:02:56.000It is noteworthy that people, and I don't need to play it, but people have been sharing this clip of Caitlin Collins when she's the daily caller dunking on George Soros for wanting to keep the borders open.
00:03:10.000So this is really sort of a 360 lose for CNN.
00:03:14.000The right, of course, is not happy with CNN because, you know, Trump calls her a nasty person in the context of her not letting him finish or that she could just get in her two cents, that she disagrees with whatever opinion Trump gives.
00:03:27.000But then the left is not happy either because she used to work for Tucker Carlson at the Daily Caller and used to write up stories about how Soros is not a good guy and wants to keep the borders open.
00:03:38.000There was one point that she made, though, that I did want to come back to, that the Trump, she said that Trump never ordered the National Guard or she had claimed that then President Trump never ordered the National Guard to the Capitol during January the 6th.
00:03:57.000And it's worth pointing this out because not many people are going to bother to cover this, but we did a big story on this with Joel Pollock at Breitbart.com, where he wrote this up.
00:04:06.000Trump offered the National Guard up, and this was very clear.
00:04:11.000And Collins didn't have her fact straight on this.
00:04:14.000She was attempting to try to fact-check Trump in real time.
00:04:18.000And she began asking about how he didn't do enough to send the National Guard.
00:04:23.000But Trump said crazy Nancy Pelosi and the mayor of Washington were in charge, and they did not do their jobs.
00:04:30.000Collins said Trump was in charge, but he offered up the National Guard to them, which they denied.
00:04:35.000And this happened at the this is probably ringing a bell for many of you because this certainly happened at the time.
00:04:41.000At the time, this was 100% in the news cycle.
00:04:47.000This was well known that Trump was saying, we'll give you the resources you need, but Pelosi and others didn't want it.
00:04:55.000Maybe because what they were witnessing play out, they saw the political benefit of it.
00:05:00.000Maybe they were getting some intel on the ground that things weren't quite as bad as the media was making it out to be.
00:05:05.000As we saw case in point, we saw case in point the fact that the unearthed footage, some of what we got of the latest January the 6th footage, really did show some of those Capitol guards seeming to give tours of the Capitol.
00:05:23.000Now, I'm not saying that wasn't literally what they were doing.
00:05:25.000For those of you in the Soros-funded freaks realm of the audience, but you saw Jacob Chansley, the QNAN shaman, the guy with the Viking horns and the beaver pelt.
00:05:47.000And it was good for Trump to get it in there and bat on CNN for this bogus fact check.
00:05:52.000And recall that the fact checks for CNN, they're almost always nearly 100% always in one direction, and that is to make Trump seem like a bad guy.
00:06:01.000We got Drew Hernandez on the line from the border.
00:06:17.000So last night we are here down at the formerly known southern border, the open border, Yuma, Arizona sector, where it is absolutely open.
00:06:25.000Title 42 did expire last night, 9 p.m. local time.
00:06:28.000And we already saw individuals, illegals, okay, invading and rushing the southern border.
00:06:33.000We have the footage if you guys want to queue it over if it isn't already, but these individuals are being staged in the Mexico side and by the hundreds.
00:06:40.000Now, here's the interesting thing about Yuma, Alex, is normally you see this kind of stuff happening between 3 a.m., 6 a.m., sometimes even, you know, around 2 a.m.
00:06:51.000But they started last night when Title 42 expired right on the dot, right at 9 p.m.
00:06:56.000These individuals began coming right over.
00:06:59.000And it's interesting because last night, Secretary DHS Secretary Mayorkas was coming out and claiming that, oh, individuals are going to be turned away.
00:07:06.000And if you come not in the proper way, then you're not going to be able to come into the United States.
00:07:11.000That's not necessarily true because what you're seeing here, this is not an official point of entry.
00:07:16.000This is just an absolute open point at this formerly known southern border in Yuma.
00:07:52.000And he said, absolutely, nothing's really changed.
00:07:54.000So that's what we're continuing to see.
00:07:56.000It's nothing but propaganda you see in the media coming from the federal government.
00:07:59.000It's nothing but continual lies to make it look like all is well.
00:08:02.000But at least I could speak on behalf of what was taking place last night when Title 42 expired, Yuma, Arizona.
00:08:09.000The border, I can report, is still open.
00:08:11.000So do you find that what you're seeing is people coming more towards the points of entry, or are still many people trying to sneak in towards points that are not points of entry?
00:08:21.000Because it feels like the signal the government is sending is that you come to a point of entry, you're getting to a notice to appear sometime in 2027, maybe 2030.
00:08:30.000You may as well just take your chances and just get that and then just start living your life, take a bus somewhere to America.
00:08:37.000Or are you finding people are trying to really just kind of scoot across the Rio Grande and not where you are in Yuma, but I mean, figuratively speaking, just kind of get in and figure things out as you go.
00:08:53.000These are just open parts that the cartels have facilitated and showed the illegals how they can get across.
00:09:00.000And then obviously we all know this by now, the Border Patrol are essentially a legalized human trafficking Uber service for these individuals.
00:09:07.000And they just stand in line and they wait because they know the Americans are going to let them straight into the country.
00:09:12.000You know, specifically, Alex, to answer your question a little more, add a little more nuance to it, I asked Border Patrol and I said, okay, NTAs, notice to appear in court, right?
00:09:21.000That's what these individuals are receiving, not getting deported.
00:09:34.000I said, well, how many are actually going to abide by that, regardless of what the timeframe is, whether it's appear in court 10 days or 10 years from now?
00:09:45.000And he said that just absolutely numb to the core.
00:09:47.000These people are being demoralized, the Southern Border Agents.
00:09:51.000That's what's happening in the United States.
00:09:52.000So the lies that the Feds put out, it's nothing but propaganda.
00:09:56.000Because when you go down and you actually take a look at this for yourself, it is the complete opposite.
00:10:01.000I went down to the border and did a big tour there a couple of years ago, trying to go both to points of entry and to some of these places where there was a lot of entry from people who were not going to go through the system, who were just your standard run-of-the-mill illegal aliens trying to sneak in.
00:10:16.000And to talk to the Border Patrol, to talk to law enforcement there, it was really one of some of the most heartbreaking things because when our border policies lax, their lives get much worse.
00:10:31.000And most of them are too classy to say anything.
00:10:33.000Some of them will talk to some of us, like you and some of our oppors at Breitbart on background.
00:10:37.000But I want to hear, because you're down there, what you're hearing, what people are telling you.
00:10:41.000You mentioned they're demoralized, but I'm going to ask you to put some color on that.
00:10:44.000Plus, give me more detail on what you're seeing down at the border.
00:10:47.000Turning point in frontlines have cruised throughout the border right now, which is pretty amazing.
00:10:52.000We spoke to Savannah yesterday from Texas, and now we're speaking to Drew from Arizona.
00:10:57.000This is a massive crisis, one of the biggest we've ever seen.
00:11:01.000Record immigration is only getting worse, illegal immigration, to be precise.
00:11:05.000Look, it is time to consider a rollover of that 401k into an IRA.
00:11:10.000The investment world is completely different in 2023, and you cannot do the same thing as last year.
00:11:15.000Woke companies are aggressively implementing ESG.
00:11:20.000Interest rates are going up and inflation is still lingering.
00:11:22.000If you have over $150,000, now is the time to move your money to a biblical responsible investing strategy with my friends at PAX Financial Group.
00:12:08.000This is when you have an open border and the government is sending a signal that if you're an economic migrant, then you can come here and we'll basically welcome you in, at least for a period of a few years.
00:12:18.000What does this do to the communities and particularly the families of law enforcement who are down there?
00:12:23.000Well, the communities, especially the border towns, but like I think that's an accurate assessment.
00:12:28.000These individuals are being spread throughout the United States of America.
00:12:32.000Everything you see for viewers at home, everything you see with makeshift, you know, illegal camps with these individuals that are just making homeless shelters and camps down there in these border towns, that is all getting dispersed and deployed into the United States of America, not by the thousands, not by the tens of thousands.
00:12:49.000This is in the millions of individuals because this is happening.
00:13:17.000You will not be able to speak out against them.
00:13:19.000They'll protect them over you because this is about dismantling the American citizen.
00:13:23.000This is about dismantling American sovereignty.
00:13:26.000This is more than just a border crisis.
00:13:28.000This is a strategically planned crisis.
00:13:30.000The UN is involved in all of this with all these NGOs.
00:13:33.000The UN helps these people and facilitates these people.
00:13:36.000How do these people that have the education of a first grader navigate throughout the entire world from these foreign third world countries to the United States?
00:14:10.000Does replacement migration fix a depopulating nation or an aging nation?
00:14:15.000And they said by the year 2050, this is their quote, the United Nations, these globalists, by the year 2050, all the so-called immigrants and immigration from 1995, all of those people to 2050 will be the large population of the United States of America.
00:14:31.000So you begin to ask yourself and put all the pieces together, why is this happening?
00:14:35.000Is it just some kind of crisis that's out of control?
00:14:37.000No, this is a controlled demolition of American sovereignty, and you're watching it in real time.
00:14:44.000The cartels are the ones who are orchestrating this whole thing.
00:14:47.000They're the ones who are getting rich.
00:14:48.000They're the ones who are treating these people as if they're in indentured servitude.
00:14:53.000And this is completely fine with Alejandro Mayorkas.
00:14:56.000We opened the show today playing clips of him saying that we need to keep the border open, so to speak, because there are all these people who need money.
00:15:06.000They need to be able to send money back to their countries and to feed their families as if that's our responsibility as American citizens.
00:15:17.000We are free to start businesses elsewhere.
00:15:19.000But it's not our charge to use taxpayer dollars to be able to process, house, tolerate all of this illegal immigration, all its downstream effects, only for them to take the money from our economy and to send it back home.
00:15:33.000But this is the logic of the current regime.
00:15:36.000Absolutely, because it's about dismantling American sovereignty.
00:15:39.000It's the same thing they're doing with Ukraine, Alex.
00:15:42.000Just send tens of billions of dollars to Ukraine while America gets destabilized and falls and turns into a third world country because it's a virtue signal.
00:16:02.000But America's enemies know, and this is why they hate her.
00:16:05.000We are a superpower and they're dismantling us from within.
00:16:08.000And I'll tell you, that's a good point, Alex.
00:16:11.000The ones that benefit are these cartels, these evil individuals that rape little girls, rape little boys before they even get to the United States southern border on their journey.
00:16:23.000Doesn't want to talk about it, but even though they know this stuff happens, they still incentivize it and they still encourage these people to do this because they try to virtue signal and say, well, you know, Orange Man is gone.
00:18:15.000We had a story up at Breitbart News from John Nolte, one of our most interesting writers, groomer backlash, Disney stock downgraded for cognitive dissonance.
00:18:24.000It's because you can't trust your kids with Disney anymore.
00:18:27.000I've got young kids, and this is a tough battle because if you look at the classic Disney content, look at the Pixar content, some of the best storytelling that ever existed, and mostly family friendly.
00:18:38.000But if there's anything new on Disney, you have to be incredibly cautious before you put it on in your kids' households.
00:18:46.000And the reason is, is because they're putting all sorts of different woke stuff in it at every turn.
00:18:52.000And once you let your guard down, then the groomers will get in there.
00:18:56.000But it's not just Disney, it's all over the place.
00:18:58.000Target now has a pride collection that includes items for children and babies.
00:19:33.000And does it have to be their taxpayer dollars, which is why Sandra Rubio and Sandra Danes have introduced a bill banning the Pentagon from using taxpayer funds for drag performances?
00:19:44.000If you do not have a strong stomach, do not go to brightburgh.com and look up this story because the photo that we have chosen for it is of a man who's in incredible shape and clearly is a man, judging by the content of this individual speedo, but has the face and hair of a woman.
00:20:06.000Is because this is the gender-bending confusion that we're not just all having to tolerate as a society, which no one really is against tolerating it from adults, but it is that we are grooming children into this cult that's taking place.
00:20:22.000And we're also now doing it with federal dollars, particularly with defense dollars.
00:20:29.000And that is something that should be immediately rejected by the entire public.
00:21:49.000We're just constantly consuming everything, especially when it comes to food.
00:21:53.000And instead of reining in the corporations by suggesting, well, maybe you shouldn't be eating so much and you should walk a little bit more.
00:22:02.000Maybe you should not be sitting on your phone consuming content as much, maybe you should get out there and start moving your body around.
00:22:53.000So I'm just trying to figure out what his thinking is exactly, trying to, and if this is a serious thing, maybe this is a time where a third party could potentially work, though we haven't had, when was the last time with a third party actually viable?
00:23:08.000But it is one where the standard bearers for both sides of the political divide, Republican, Democrat, Biden and Trump, neither of them are particularly popular.
00:23:18.000So this leads to think, well, maybe someone could come in and shake things up from a third party standpoint, but it also assumes the media would allow for it to happen.
00:23:27.000We have a very compelling semi-third party candidate right now with Robert Kennedy Jr., but he's not going to get platformed by the establishment media.
00:23:36.000The establishment media does not want to talk to him because his ideas would be a threat to Joe Biden.
00:23:42.000And that's what's interesting because if they thought he was a threat to Trump, even though he shares a lot of viewpoints of, I think, Trump's base, then I think they would platform him, but they don't.
00:23:57.000I don't think he's got a chance for one specific reason because he was the key deciding factor in Joe Biden's Inflation Reduction Act.
00:24:07.000Of all the ridiculous things Biden has passed, of all the destructive things he's done, and he's done so many, it's hard to count.
00:24:14.000The one that still is the most unfathomable is that he actually passed a gigantic bill called the Inflation Reduction Act, which increased inflation.
00:24:25.000I have no idea why that's legal, why that's allowed.
00:24:29.000I don't know how you would make that impeachable, but it certainly sounds like it's impeachable, at least in my brain.
00:24:38.000Manchin was the guy who got that across the finish line.
00:24:41.000So I don't see how he actually runs a viable race, considering that that just makes him another Democrat.
00:24:48.000Maybe every once in a while he'll vote on something that is more moderate.
00:24:53.000But if you're going to be on that side of the legislation, I don't see how you're really that distinguishable from Joe Biden.
00:25:00.000Maybe a little bit better, but pretty marginal.
00:25:03.000But that said, I'll definitely invite him on my show on Sirius XM, Breitbart News Daily, and we'll try to interview him at Breitbart, try to get his take on it.
00:25:09.000But that vote and Joe Biden smugly shaking Manchin's hand.
00:25:34.000And he, though it seems like he's certainly making moves, it is the donors want him to jump in, but it seems like he's losing momentum at a rapid rate and he's not making a lot of good decisions.
00:25:47.000I mentioned on yesterday's show, my interview with Charlie, which is first hour, those of you who get the podcast, when I interviewed Charlie on his own show, a semi-surreal moment.
00:25:59.000It is a point where he seems like he's got to paint or get off the ladder, for lack of a better expression, but I don't know if he's got the team behind him.
00:26:08.000Because when Trump dominated the CNN Town Hall, the only group of people, the only faction of people who said Trump didn't dominate, and this includes all the Trump haters, was Ron DeSantis' crowd.
00:26:19.000It looks like Tim Scott's going to get in.
00:26:21.000This seems to be totally confirmed that Tim Scott's about to get in.
00:26:26.000And then it looks like Mike Pence is going to get in.
00:26:45.000But I still tell you what they might do.
00:26:48.000They might pull some of the anti-Trump vote away from DeSantis, who has become the default anti-Trump candidate, and make it so that that is more split.
00:27:00.000So it could be a scenario where you could see a primary playout.
00:27:05.000So if Scott gets in, Haley's already in, Vivek's in.
00:27:09.000Now a scenario where we've got Donald Trump getting a scenario where he could be basically doing like job interviews during the debate for cabinet posts.
00:27:21.000If my theory is true, that a Pence candidacy, a Tim Scott candidacy, along with a Vivek candidacy, all that's going to do is pull people away from the never Trump faction, which is maybe half of the party, whatever it is, maybe 40%.
00:27:35.000And that's going to be divided all the way up amongst those candidates.
00:27:39.000I wouldn't hate it in the sense that it could really get us to flesh out some of these ideas in a relatively low stakes, high-profile environment.
00:27:48.000But as of now, Trump's running away with it.
00:27:50.000And the more candidates you enter, the weaker DeSantis position is.
00:27:54.000And why he didn't declare five months ago, I know there was that rule in Florida.
00:27:57.000I don't get it, but I think this was catastrophic politically, not a smart move.
00:28:04.000I was over at Citizens Free Press and they just posted a pretty unbelievable link to black leaders holding a protest in Chicago against illegal aliens.
00:28:15.000This is exactly the type of talk radio talking point I will bring up, but it is nice to hear it from the actual people who are most harmed by illegal immigration.
00:28:27.000Politically, having over 500 people in our community would completely wipe out any interest we have.
00:28:33.000Are you aware that there are immigrant advocates at state houses all over this country who are advocating for non-citizen voting in local elections?
00:28:44.000That would change the mindset of what we as a black community need to thrive here in Chicago.
00:28:51.000This is an effort to destroy our neighborhoods and silence our voices even further.
00:28:57.000And it does water down every time you have new people who are not a part of the community and who have not assimilated to our lifestyle.
00:29:07.000You give them the vote and you give them certain rights and you treat them as if they're citizens when they're not citizens, they're mere residents and they're not even really residents necessarily all the time.
00:29:16.000They're kind of visitors trying to make some money.
00:29:18.000Then what that does, it waters down what it means to be a citizen.
00:29:21.000And in a lot of these communities that are close-knit, they're going to feel that the most, the hardest because they're the ones who are going to be more experimenting with the non-citizen voting, et cetera.
00:29:34.000So this is the sort of thing where you'll hear people like me say this, is that the people who get hardest hit by illegal immigration is not necessarily middle-class white guys.
00:29:42.000A lot of the time, it is people in the black community, other people who are in lower income neighborhoods.
00:29:48.000They might be the ones who are seeing their rents go up and seeing competition driving down their wages first.
00:29:59.000While this crisis may constitute an emergency for the city of Chicago, it does not constitute an emergency for the South Shore community.
00:30:10.000Incoming migrants have overwhelmed district police stations by the hundreds, but city leaders could barely eke out a word of the details about a proposed respite center at the former South Shore High School.
00:30:21.000When it comes to the total number of people at South Shore at any given point in time, it is fluid.
00:30:30.000How could you do that without consulting us?
00:30:33.000I am concerned with safety in the area.
00:30:36.000One other thing is that when people come to the United States and they are now in our communities, if you don't put them into the school system, then what are they going to do all day?
00:30:49.000The idle hands makes for the devil's work.
00:30:52.000So that is the, that's a formula for disaster.
00:30:57.000You have to put them in the school system.
00:30:58.000Do you know how difficult it is to educate people in already struggling, if not failing public schools, to now have people who don't speak English, don't know any of the customs, and might not, it's hard to even assess how educated they are when they're here.
00:31:13.000And now a bunch of those are put into your communities and families who are already struggling are already losing ground financially due to the Biden inflation.
00:31:20.000And not to mention some of their horrific Democrat leadership in virtually every major city in the country.
00:31:27.000And now you're responsible for all these new people because Alejandro Mayorkas and Joe Biden and Kamala Harris and the people who are the puppet masters in the Democrat Party believe that it is the right thing for this country to keep our border open and to broadcast it to the rest of the world, particularly the third world.
00:31:47.000But I will tell you, the main solution, the number one solution is people have to vote differently.
00:31:53.000And if anyone are in any of these communities who are hitting or feeling the effects of illegal aliens the hardest, then I would recommend that you perhaps consider you change who you vote for and you don't necessarily continue to vote for the same people who will never address these issues until it's too late.
00:32:10.000I'm fearful that this is what's happening in this country now.
00:32:13.000And that's why the 2024 election is so big.
00:32:16.000And that's why it's so important for all of you in the audience to do what you can to try to get involved at your local level.
00:32:47.000If you want to support Charlie and send him a message, like, subscribe, five stars, wherever you get your podcast, all that's very helpful to Charlie.
00:32:55.000And I'm a big believer in Turning Point USA.
