00:03:25.560grand jury in the Eastern District of Virginia returned an indictment against
00:03:29.540all seven individuals on October 14th of this year.
00:03:32.640The defendants are currently in federal custody, and my understanding is there's an initial appearance later this afternoon in federal court.

00:03:51.280Ms. Lucas's grandson, Ryan Eichelberger, Prince Albert William Hudson III, Carlton Upton Jr., and Tamika Johnson.

00:04:45.280the lucas enterprise that she arranged for the acquisition and distribution of marijuana0.93
00:04:50.900that she supervised the laundering of marijuana proceeds and that she used her political influence0.98
00:04:57.260to demand and accept a bribe and attempted to influence Virginia legislation for the benefit0.69
00:05:02.780of herself and her family. Well, hot damn! That's a lot of crimes for an 82-year-old woman.1.00
00:05:11.080I think back when my grandmother, both of my grandparents were 82 years old, one of them was0.98
00:05:15.320blind, couldn't, well, they both wound up being blind, but couldn't drive.
00:05:20.640And we used to have to walk places, couldn't drive. But for an 82-year-old woman, this is
00:05:26.100darn impressive how the heck did she do it all now in may federal agents searched lucas's office
00:05:33.120in portsmouth and the cannabis outlet businesses she co-owns on high street agencies electronics0.97
00:05:37.840and other items wiretaps capture communications included uh those of um some of her virginia
00:05:45.960democratic cohorts suhas subrohemian and a wavy reporter and nbc affiliate who later received0.98
00:05:53.000notifications about the monitoring that they were being tapped because this woman was committing
00:06:01.180crimes. Now, like I said before, I wanted to wait till you guys heard that to have a little bit of
00:06:06.660a laugh, a little bit of a laugh about what was in some of those text messages inside the
00:06:14.080indictment, because I read them this afternoon and I couldn't stop laughing. This looks like
00:06:19.180remember this is an 82 year old woman oh i guess well you know what this was on february 9th so
00:06:24.320she was probably either 82 or 81 one of her birthdays on or about february 9th 2026 at least
00:06:30.140lucas called ucc number two and discussed the language surrounding the recreational marijuana
00:06:34.380legislation pending in the virginia general assembly and the possibility of ucc number two
00:06:39.300receiving a license sharing the proceeds with her because quote this is our last chance at
00:06:45.020generational wealth i've got too old not to be greedy oh lou dobbs just said to me pigs get fat
00:06:52.220and hogs get slaughtered she was a hawk on about february 11 2026 two days later law enforcement
00:07:00.920officers observed ucc2 dispose of white trash bags in a dumpster the trash bag was retrieved
00:07:06.640by law enforcement and found to contain 19 packaging bags with the odor of marijuana0.99
00:07:10.560On about March 7, 2026, a little bit less than a month later, Lisa Lucas called Eichelberger and discussed Tameka Johnson as a middleman for the marijuana source of supply.
00:07:22.540Two days later on there, on about March 9, 2026, Lisa Lucas telephoned another Virginia legislator and informed her that she needed to get the marijuana license because, quote,0.98
00:08:24.460Today, the FBI and Department of Justice and the full weight of the federal government have been wielding against an 82-year-old great-grandmother.
00:08:31.220I grew up under Jim Crow. See what happens when people in power try to silence those who stand
00:08:37.280up to them. Spent my life fighting back and I'm not stopping now. I'm not new to this. I'm true
00:08:42.680to this. I will not be intimidated. I will not be bullied. And I will not back down. Senator
00:08:49.440L. Luis Lucas, President Pro Tempor. Sounds like a woman who's going to be in a little bit of1.00

00:09:57.000for The Great America Show. So President Trump ordered to sit for a deposition in his lawsuit
00:10:01.920against BBC by December 11th. According to a federal judge this afternoon, Trump is suing
00:10:06.340BBC for $10 billion in a defamation lawsuit that he filed over an edit of one of his speeches
00:10:11.420in a documentary that the president's lawyers say is misleading. BBC has since apologized.
00:10:17.500The judge made the ruling after court filing published this afternoon.
00:10:21.400President Trump's counsel said the president could appear between January 11th and the 22nd
00:10:25.280and argue that the president's duty to prevent President Trump from sitting before then for the deposition.
00:10:32.160BBC should probably just cut the check.
00:10:34.960It was one of the craziest edited videos I've ever seen in my life.
00:17:03.160I've never seen anywhere where there's written in gospel that Elon Musk must provide Internet service to Ukraine.
00:17:12.000I'm not sure where they come up with this, but they're talking about subpoenaing now, which is kind of funny, different time, different story for a different day.0.91
00:17:20.840But nonetheless, I thought that was pretty damn funny that Elon Musk provide, must provide Internet service, the Starlink for Ukraine, as Zelensky continues to bomb and bomb and bomb and not want to end this war.0.94
00:20:28.920Yeah, because you have like the millionaires and then you have those of us, you know, when we first went to Congress, had to borrow money to find a place.
00:20:37.940It's expensive to live in two places.1.00
00:21:28.920And any time you apply for a search warrant, one of the factors under the rules is why it needs to happen on a pursuant to a search warrant and not a subpoena, and why it has to happen on that day and not some other day.
00:21:40.240And as the magistrate judge found that we needed to do it then, we're not, our comment, I don't know what, you know, the congresswoman has made multiple public comments about it.
00:24:39.700And if they're not honest, I'll have my DOJ go and do whatever they have to do.
00:24:43.740well i guess i could stop anything look if my people are not i have no idea what he did i
00:24:52.760have just heard about it but i want the people that work for this administration to be 100
00:24:57.640so cory might be in a little bit of trouble like i said it doesn't matter left or right
00:25:09.280You committed a crime. You deserve to go to jail. An unlikely attendee at a dinner at White House.
00:25:14.560President Trump. Now, it's not a Republican, a Marxist dem because he's open to everybody coming.
00:25:20.380Stephen A. Smith. And he joined The View to talk about it afterwards with some unlikely commentary.
00:25:27.220And they tried to bait him and they tried to bait him. Let's take a listen.
00:25:29.780Well, well, now, you know, you discuss black unemployment, DEI, HBCU funding with the president.
00:25:36.120Now he says he hadn't thought about it from the corporate standpoint, but with his history, with his well-documented history of, you know, being sued for discriminating against black people in housing.
00:25:49.760He wasn't held live before that that case was settled, insulting the accomplishments of black women, calling Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson low IQ and me and Obama and others and others.0.95
00:26:02.220and the birther, you know, Haitians are eating the pets and the dogs.0.93
00:26:06.760I mean, he has this central park five.0.95
00:26:09.220He has this history of racial bias that is so clear.
00:26:12.380Do you think meeting with him that you would get that you got anywhere?
00:26:55.340And so because of that, he may get impeached and convicted. It doesn't matter. Oh, wait a minute.
00:26:59.800He's been impeached twice. Not convicted. He's been impeached twice. Well, again,
00:27:04.000you're going to have a situation where I think the Republicans are going to maintain the Senate.
00:27:08.440They'll probably lose the House. So you'll get folks to impeach him. But then they'll step in
00:27:12.500and they'll save him and it'll be a continue on ongoing, continuous thing. And don't get me
00:27:16.640started with that because I get stuck. I get disgusted with all that pomp and circumstance.
00:27:20.220I'm so sick and tired of us acting like that's going to do something.
00:27:23.820He's not going away until 2028 until 2028.
00:27:29.240He has the power of the pen of the executive office as the commanding in chief of the United States of America.
00:27:35.340You're going to have to deal with them.
00:27:37.120And when it comes to getting things done, I'm all about exhausting every means and every measure to try to do what's in the best interest of our community.
00:27:44.380I'm not apologizing for that to anybody.
