Hello, everybody. I'm Lou Dobbs, and thanks for being with us for this episode of The Great
00:00:04.860
America Show. I can't say that the Marxist left has in any way lessened its attacks on our
00:00:11.320
Constitution, the Republic, or our citizenry over the past day or so. If anything, they seem to
00:00:17.380
always find a way to come up with a special twist to their perverted ideology and a new line of
00:00:23.420
attack against our schools, our society, our politics, and government, our American way of
00:00:29.740
life. And they do seem to be winning. But conservatives are also winning now, some of
00:00:36.000
those battles at least. And our guest today is among those winning. He's Attorney General Jeff
00:00:42.360
Landry of Louisiana. He's won in the latest fight over the state's trigger law, meaning the state of
00:00:48.480
Louisiana can now go ahead with its ban on abortions. Attorney General Landry and Missouri's
00:00:54.780
Attorney General Eric Schmidt have sued President Biden and other regime officials for colluding
00:01:01.120
with big tech and social media back in 2020 to suppress free speech in the weeks before the
00:01:07.860
2020 presidential election by falsely claiming that the Hunter Biden laptop was Russian disinformation.
00:01:15.680
In short, Attorney General Jeff Landry is a great American, a fighter, and a fighter for truth,
00:01:23.180
justice, and the American way. It's a delight to have you with us here on The Great America Show,
00:01:31.920
Well, thank you for having me, Lou. It's always a pleasure to be with you and all the great
00:01:36.720
business you have around the country. So it's an honor to be on your program.
00:01:41.060
Well, terrific. And we've got a lot to talk about, but I want to begin with the integrity of this
00:01:48.060
election. Give our audience a sense of what is being done right now to protect the election,
00:01:57.060
first in the great state of Louisiana, but nationwide. Your judgment on the status of electoral
00:02:05.580
integrity in 2022? Well, I think that we're certainly a lot better off today in many,
00:02:13.580
many states than we were back in November of 2020 last year. I think, you know, one of the things
00:02:21.100
that was interesting, we built, we beat back a bunch of cases in Louisiana that folks may not,
00:02:30.760
may or may not know about, we beat back an opportunity. The city of New Orleans wanted to
00:02:36.440
put mail drop, mail-in drop boxes around the city of New Orleans. We beat them back in court. They
00:02:44.080
wanted to expand our mail balloting because of COVID-19 reasons in Louisiana. We worked with the
00:02:50.480
legislature and the secretary of state, and we put together a form that we think that we, well,
00:02:56.160
we know now because we litigated it, certainly allowed for some exceptions, but certainly put in
00:03:02.780
some safeguards to ensure that there was not fraud and abuse inside of that particular system. And then
00:03:09.080
most importantly, what we did in Louisiana, but then was echoed around the country since then,
00:03:14.840
is we sued Mark Zuckerberg and his non-for-profit CTCL, which was basically sprinkling money,
00:03:23.000
you know, almost 400, over 400 million dollars around the country, under which they used that
00:03:30.460
program to create, in many ways, unfortunately, a legal ballot harvesting operation for the Democrat
00:03:37.480
Party. And I think that there are states now, many states, have closed the door through legislation
00:03:44.620
to those Zuckerbergs. So just in that sense, I think that we're much better off than we were in 2020.
00:03:50.380
You know, and where does, first of all, congratulations on all that you've done in
00:03:55.420
Louisiana. And I agree with you. I hope the whole country is following your example. I want to get a
00:04:03.360
sense of where that suit against Zuckerberg stands, the actions that have been taken. Can you bring us
00:04:09.320
up to date on that as well? I can, I can. You know, I am a little embarrassed that we're not a lot further
00:04:15.600
along than I would have liked to. But, you know, we filed the suit. We actually filed the suit before
00:04:20.660
November 2020. It was in October. And we drew a judge, a local judge out here, who I don't think,
00:04:26.860
I thought, just didn't have an understanding of how nefarious the actions were. And he ruled against
00:04:33.180
us. We ended up taking that up to the Third Circuit in Louisiana. That's the Third Circuit in
00:04:38.420
Louisiana. And the 3-0 panel, they sent the case back and we won. And then we moved for discovery,
00:04:45.520
which is the phase I'm extremely interested in. And then here lately, in the last 30 days,
00:04:50.340
the judge seems to be dragging his feet on our ability to conduct discovery. And so the suit's
00:04:56.720
not going as fast as I would like. I can tell you this, we're going to, we intend to follow through
00:05:02.260
on this lawsuit. I fully intend to litigate this all the way up to the Louisiana Supreme Court if I
00:05:07.620
have to. But I'm really intent on getting this discovery done so we can see what went on in those
00:05:14.020
emails. You know, if you look at Wisconsin, if you look at the report that Michael Gabelman, the former
00:05:22.500
Supreme Court Justice in Wisconsin put out a 150-page scathing report on the Zuck Bucks and the effects of
00:05:33.100
it in Wisconsin, it will shock you, Lou. I mean, it really, really will. And so that's why I'm so
00:05:40.840
interested in getting into the discovery phase. Yeah, well, discovery, I can't wait for you to get
00:05:46.660
discovery, too, except when I think about you began this legal process before the election of 2020.
00:05:54.240
And here we are approaching the midterms two years later, and we are still at sea on both
00:06:01.320
an understanding of what happened in 2020 and what Zuckerberg did and what more we could learn as a
00:06:08.240
result of just the discovery in the case. Forget the actual findings of a court. And there seems to be
00:06:16.380
this slow roll throughout this country. Now, I'm not saying everybody's corrupt, but I'm saying
00:06:25.040
there are sure a lot of folks who seem to be. Well, look, I share your frustration that the
00:06:30.940
wheels of justice sometimes move a lot slower than the rest of us would like. And if I could bring you
00:06:36.960
down to Louisiana and put you in charge of our court system down here, I'd do that. I think that
00:06:42.300
I think that the most important thing is that we stay the course, is that, as you said, we're still
00:06:49.660
at sea. The good news is we've got a compass and a rudder, and we're not just a drift. But I do
00:06:57.120
believe, you know, here's the good news, right? I do believe that when folks like myself and many of the
00:07:04.900
listeners out there stay that course, once you chart your course and you stay on it, eventually there is
00:07:11.760
going to be a tipping point or a watershed moment under which this litigation is going to wash
00:07:18.500
everything. And then all of a sudden, it'll seem, I'm hoping, that it will be moving at like
00:07:23.600
breakneck speed. Well, I commend you on all that you're doing. And I think that the state of Louisiana
00:07:31.280
is very fortunate to have you as attorney general. I want to turn to a couple of other things as well,
00:07:36.860
obviously. A judge ruling against the Louisiana trigger law banning abortion. Were you prepared
00:07:44.660
for that ruling? Did you expect that to be the case? Well, the unfortunate part, and this is really
00:07:51.360
the disappointment I think many Americans have had now in our legal system, is that it seems like the
00:07:57.300
the amount of justice you get or don't get seems to be dependent upon which court or judge that you
00:08:04.020
pick. When this suit was first brought against Louisiana's trigger laws, it was brought in New
00:08:09.920
Orleans. And of course, I figured we were going to lose there. It was interesting. We actually had a
00:08:15.200
little bit of a victory where the judge sent the case from New Orleans to Baton Rouge. I'll bet not much
00:08:21.040
better of a venue, but it's the proper venue. I am a little bit disappointed that this judge is
00:08:29.240
moving around the law in the way that he is. But again, we tried to get the Louisiana Supreme Court
00:08:38.100
to take the matter up. It's unfortunate the lack of leadership up there at the court that refused to
00:08:46.700
take it. There was a great dissent done by one of our chief justice, not our chief, one of our
00:08:51.540
justices, Will Crane, who dissented when we tried to get it up there. And it's a wonderful dissent. If
00:08:57.240
you get a chance, I'll make sure that we send it to you. Because he spells it out that the court
00:09:02.200
should be, the Supreme Court should be taking these issues up. Because most state constitutions
00:09:07.820
allow their Supreme Courts. In Louisiana, we have supervisory jurisdiction. And so the Supreme Court
00:09:15.980
can, at any point in time, reach down and to take these cases. And those provisions in the Constitution,
00:09:22.780
our state constitutions, I believe, were built in order for times just like this. So we don't create
00:09:30.160
this legal circus that is going on while there is absolutely irreparable harm. I can think of no more
00:09:37.500
irreparable harm than having an unborn child murdered. I think that you're exactly right.
00:09:43.480
And for them not to take the urgency of that very issue as you've articulated it and make that a
00:09:52.000
legal philosophy, a procedural philosophy, is shocking. But yet we've seen the same thing all
00:09:58.420
the way up to the U.S. Supreme Court, which in 2020, concurrent with the injuries that were
00:10:04.680
were befalling the electoral system, had befallen the electoral system. They didn't want to take the
00:10:12.620
case before the injury, then they didn't want to take it after. It's, you know, in the first case,
00:10:17.960
it hadn't occurred, the issue, there couldn't be a suit in their judgment. And following it, it was too
00:10:25.140
late because it was moot. I mean, the legal circus, as you described it, doesn't just occur at the local
00:10:34.260
and state level. It's occurring all the way through the federal system as well.
00:10:39.060
Well, you know, the unfortunate thing is that I've said many times when we get into this
00:10:43.820
quagmire is that, you know, judges, unfortunately, sometimes remind us of professional punters.
00:10:50.680
You know, I mean, again, you know, if they ever left the bench, I think they could all get a job
00:10:55.060
at the NFL because they love to punt the ball. That's not the job that we gave them. I mean,
00:11:01.280
and the job that they have is really not that difficult. They're just supposed to apply the
00:11:06.100
law in the facts. I can tell you, of course, the court today, the Supreme Court, United States
00:11:11.560
Supreme Court today is different than it was in November or December of 2020, as you know.
00:11:17.460
Absolutely. But here's the interesting part. I think they did get it wrong by not taking up
00:11:24.700
certainly the Pennsylvania case, I believe, was completely ripe and should have been taken
00:11:30.420
and was easy to decide. You know, the unfortunate part is that I think they, you know, they lent too
00:11:37.880
much credibility in the legacy media out there under which, you know, that goes out and gives them what
00:11:45.460
they believe is what the American people are clamoring for. And it's really, I would say that
00:11:52.460
the people that you have listening to this show represent a greater swath of America than maybe
00:11:59.520
some of those other outlets and put those justices just say, well, you know, we just, maybe we just
00:12:03.720
don't want to get involved in it. And that's plain wrong. It's not that we pay them to call balls and
00:12:08.720
They did not want to get involved. It was obvious. And I think, as you, as you say, there was an
00:12:16.500
inherent bias toward a status quo that they could not imagine would be as corrupt as we have now
00:12:23.840
learned it was. It was a rigged election on so many levels in so many fashions, whether it's voting
00:12:31.400
machines, I don't know the details. And by the way, I find that most secretaries of state don't even know
00:12:37.580
what's going on with those electronic voting systems or how. But when we witnessed what we did on
00:12:44.820
television in Wayne County, Michigan, in Detroit, and in Fulton County, in Georgia, Atlanta, these are
00:12:54.640
straightforwardly your lion eyes showing you what was happening. And then a court telling you that you
00:13:00.560
have to dismiss those anomalies, as they put it.
00:13:05.140
Yeah. And I also don't think the courts, one of the things that I think they miscalculated was the
00:13:11.340
resolve of the American citizenry to ensure that their election process is fair. Because, you know,
00:13:18.100
like, like you said earlier, when you said rigged, I thought about the documentary that was put out
00:13:22.760
called rigged, that you can go to rigged2020.com to download. And of course, the 2000 News documentary,
00:13:30.960
all of those things are documentaries out there that show some of the activity. And, you know,
00:13:36.520
I'm just an old country boy, but I've always thought where there's smoke, there's got to be some fire.
00:13:42.300
And I think that that's the problem. And I also think it's important. This is an important
00:13:48.100
statement I've said time and time again. The job of the government, our government, whether it's the
00:13:55.960
state, the federal, certainly not the federal, but the state and your local government, is not to
00:14:00.240
entice people to go vote. Their job is to perform the elections under which every legal voter has an
00:14:10.860
opportunity to cast their vote and then that vote be counted. The job of enticing people to go vote,
00:14:18.000
what are the jobs of the parties and the candidates? But for some kind of reason, the Democrats have
00:14:22.740
fooled us all into believing that it's the government's job to entice people to vote. And
00:14:27.560
that's absolutely not correct. Yeah, it's, you know, I think it's important that people serve, but
00:14:33.380
there's no right now without selective service being activated by a president. You know, the government
00:14:41.480
is not supposed to directly go out and start enticing people to sign up for the military either.
00:14:47.020
Although the branches can recruit, it doesn't make sense to see the White House and others involved
00:14:52.760
in the same thing. It's a strange time we live in, as you obviously know, Attorney General.
00:14:59.180
One of the issues is Republican Attorneys General Sujo Lawton colluding with big tech to censor
00:15:10.300
information on Hunter Biden's laptop from hell and COVID. What in the world was going on there?
00:15:17.440
Yeah, I'm going to tell you, we've got an interesting lawsuit down here in Louisiana,
00:15:23.820
Indiana, where we sued Fauci and a number of other members of Biden's cabinet. And our legal theory
00:15:35.740
is that they induced or colluded with and encouraged big tech to censor information from the American
00:15:46.360
people. And what's interesting is last week, the judge granted us our discovery request. And which
00:15:53.420
and so those subpoenas went out. And that's, I think that this is an important case, because you got to
00:15:59.900
remember, where, you know, the bill at Facebook does it, because it's a private entity, they claim they
00:16:07.280
don't have a responsibility. And they can infringe upon your First Amendment, because they're a private
00:16:13.760
actor. Okay, that's a pretty good, you know, they're probably on some pretty solid legal footing. However,
00:16:21.840
when they engage with the government in what would otherwise be a violation of my First Amendment, if the
00:16:29.840
government did it, they then become a government actor. And that's the suit that we have going on down
00:16:36.820
here. That's the discoveries, the subpoenas that went out. And I can tell you, you should pay attention
00:16:42.540
to that case, it's going to be a barn burner. Well, it's, it's, I have to say, it's an exciting,
00:16:49.600
exciting lawsuit, just in its potential to reveal more and to change a lot. Again, you're involved in
00:16:59.600
that, in that effort. We were looking at what now is, everybody keeps talking about this letter,
00:17:06.820
this 51 intelligence officials, former intelligence officials, who signed the letter in 2020, in
00:17:14.780
October of 2020, to say that the Hunter's laptop, it was pure Russian disinformation, when every one of
00:17:23.580
those officials, if they're truly intelligence officials, would have known that since 2016,
00:17:28.540
they had known in the FBI and other agencies, that none other than Hillary Clinton's campaign
00:17:36.300
authored the Steele dossier, had proceeded to push that dossier and the Russia collusion hoax through
00:17:44.700
the deep state and emanating originally from the top of the Democrat Party. They knew it and then still
00:17:53.720
went out in 2020 in that important election and lied to the American people to give a shield to Joe Biden,
00:18:02.580
who knew he was lying. By the way, we know that Bill Barr knew that he was lying. But Bill Barr says he
00:18:10.480
didn't want to intervene in the election. We know that those circumstances formed the basis of what
00:18:16.820
became a, without any doubt, a change in the direction of history and the outcome of the 2020 election.
00:18:24.380
Your thoughts? Yeah. First of all, I think it's important for me to state that I've, you know, I've
00:18:31.880
worked with the Federal Bureau of Investigations over the years and other federal law enforcement
00:18:37.640
agencies back in my time when I was a sheriff's deputy and a police officer. And there are some fine men
00:18:44.600
and women who work inside of those agencies. The problem that we're uncovering today is that those
00:18:51.440
agencies evidently have had a lot more rotten apples than they should have in their bunches.
00:18:58.640
And it seems as though the more we dig in, that those rotten apples seem to be the ones that have
00:19:03.740
risen to the top. And that's unfortunate. I think that Senator Grassley's letter points out a very
00:19:11.640
disturbing trend. This is not something new, under which the FBI, I mean, we think about James Comey,
00:19:19.160
go back to James Comey. We think about, I mean, look, the amount of time and treasure that was spent on
00:19:25.200
that stupid, ridiculous investigation into the Steele dossier. I mean, literally, Lou, me and you
00:19:35.640
could have come to the conclusion for a lot less than 40 million, which is what it cost the American
00:19:40.780
taxpayers. I mean, we probably could have done it for $40. You're talking about the special counsel
00:19:45.820
investigation. Yes, I'm talking about the Mueller investigation. Right. And think about the
00:19:51.640
characters that we're talking about. James Comey, Mueller. I mean, the list goes on. These are all
00:19:58.360
people that have been living in that infected swamp for years and decades now. And it's unfortunate
00:20:05.660
because we relied on those folks to give us the truth and to uncover the truth and ensure that we
00:20:12.380
administer justice. But look, it shouldn't surprise everybody. Remember Hillary Clinton sanitizing her
00:20:18.640
service? You know, that was just blown off. Like, oh, it was, you know, she shouldn't have done that.
00:20:24.880
So we just, you know, it's going to be OK. But again, this is what happens when laws that are placed
00:20:31.480
on the books and not followed and not particularly enforced. Everyone just says, well, I can just do
00:20:37.440
whatever I want. I'm telling you, that Grassley letter is one of the most disturbing letters I've
00:20:43.960
read in a long, long time. And so to me, the question is not about the letter. The question
00:20:51.080
is now, what are they going to do? Yep. Yep. Absolutely. And the letter that the attorney
00:20:56.860
general is referring to coming from Chuck Grassley, the ranking member of the Senate Judiciary Committee.
00:21:02.400
Now he points out that he is basing his comments on highly credible is the expression he used in the
00:21:11.400
letter, highly credible whistleblowers who have stepped forward to talk about the what is a
00:21:19.200
conspiracy was a conspiracy at the highest levels of the FBI and obviously through the middle management
00:21:27.240
in some fashion to make certain that any, any information that was negative about either
00:21:37.880
President Joe Biden or at the time candidate Joe Biden and his son Hunter Biden would be shut down.
00:21:46.940
And the device they decided they would use and employ was what became an October surprise that we all
00:21:53.940
know as now the Hunter Biden laptop and the, the response of the democratic deep state, uh, the Marxist
00:22:03.120
dim deep state, uh, the, the disinformation letter, which was all about disinformation about the source of
00:22:10.920
that styling it as Russian disinformation, which all 51 people knew was a lie. And which all of the
00:22:18.900
major actors knew was a lie. Just the American people didn't know it because they shut down
00:22:23.640
our newspapers, our major news outlets, uh, all across the board, including the New York post that
00:22:30.020
originally broke the story of the laptop. And then think about the costs that, that, that has made on
00:22:37.860
the American people. Think about where we are today. Now with the conflict going on in Ukraine,
00:22:44.860
hyperinflationary pressures, uh, on food and energy, uh, Europe in disarray, uh, the, the whispers of recession
00:22:57.640
on wall street. I mean, you know, the, the fact is if they would have done their job, the question is,
00:23:06.600
would the election have turned out differently? And then of course, when you lay on top of that,
00:23:13.240
what we talked about earlier, which was the, the, the, you know, the, what seems to be
00:23:18.120
great flaws in our election system and in the integrity of, of some elections in some of the
00:23:24.780
swing States, you scratch your head and think, man, the price that Americans have paid for those who
00:23:32.560
have broken the law to get us to this point. Somebody should, it must be held accountable.
00:23:40.560
Absolutely. Absolutely. Well said. Uh, and that isn't the idea that Republicans will pursue consequences
00:23:48.920
for their political, not opponents, but political enemies. Uh, that's who the Democrats have become.
00:23:56.180
Uh, I say it on this podcast all of the time. This is good versus evil. This is a bunch of Marxist
00:24:04.020
dims versus the United States government and every ideal that is cherished, uh, with the name America.
00:24:12.720
It is, it's, it's just a moment in time where people have to understand this is an existential
00:24:19.320
moment in history, whether this Republic will survive because we can't survive. Uh, I, I, I don't
00:24:27.560
think we'll, we'll survive another election like 2020 if that were to occur. I agree with you. And I,
00:24:34.600
and look, I've got, I've got to affirm your comments. You know, you probably got a few more
00:24:39.240
gray hairs on your head, uh, than, than I have. Uh, there's probably a few years in between us.
00:24:45.220
And so you've seen a lot more than me, which I think only brings you to the answer quicker than
00:24:54.160
folks like myself, because you understand the effects and the evilness of communism and Marxism
00:25:02.200
and the price that the average person ends up paying for that. You know, I was, uh, I was on a panel
00:25:09.500
in DC earlier this week at AFPI and, um, and Kenny Blackwell talked about the difference between being
00:25:17.860
a subject and a citizen. And, and I think that all of that, um, is really brought to the forefront when
00:25:26.340
you realize that there's an absolute difference between being a subject and a citizen. And you become
00:25:32.600
a subject when the government can affect you on whims and, and, and just move with the tide and that
00:25:38.960
there are really not really a set set of rules. It's just up to who is in charge of the government.
00:25:45.920
You're a citizen when you, you are bestowed extreme certain rights under which the gun,
00:25:52.480
even the government is not able to violate. And, you know, so I'm, I'm with you. I, I, I don't know if,
00:25:59.580
if, if we don't really change our course, if, if we can survive in the way that America has been
00:26:05.220
surviving over the last, you know, 250 plus years. Yeah, I think, you know, certainly we can survive.
00:26:12.960
And the question becomes, uh, do we still have the, the intestinal fortitude, the, the political will,
00:26:20.660
uh, the, the sense, uh, and the love of this country and the gratitude that should be primary,
00:26:29.180
uh, and foundational for all of the blessings of this country, our constitution, all who've
00:26:36.280
sacrificed for the past 250 years to create this very unique and special democracy, a constitutional
00:26:44.240
republic. While we have the radical Marxist Dems talking about, uh, packing the Supreme Court,
00:26:52.180
talking about term limits, uh, for these, uh, justices, uh, instead of respecting the law,
00:27:00.400
their rulings, uh, we are in, uh, I can, I can say it a lot of ways. I'm going to be this direct.
00:27:07.520
We're in a hell of a mess and either people are waking to that. I'm sorry, go ahead.
00:27:13.480
No, here's the good, I think you're right. I think you said it well. Um, here's the, let me,
00:27:18.760
let me offer a little bit of, of, of encouragement and hope, you know, really, and truly, if we closed
00:27:24.160
our eyes and we went through the list of, of Marxist communist movements, socialism, um,
00:27:32.420
big corporations trying to fix elections, I swear, if I close my eyes, you're waking me up around 1915,
00:27:39.640
right? Early 1900s. Uh, and so, you know, I think that the country has weathered, uh, some of those
00:27:46.440
attacks, um, before, but it was the decisions of the American people. And I think that this is where
00:27:53.200
the buck stops and which, and where you're trying to get to is that it's going to be up to us. We're
00:28:00.600
in this fork in the road that maybe we've been there before. The difference is, is that back then
00:28:07.660
when we were there, we chose the right road. The question becomes is, are we going to choose the right
00:28:13.820
one this time again? Absolutely. And, and, and the citizens of this country, uh, have been used to
00:28:23.260
the, the so-called elites, uh, in education and government and politics, having their, their very
00:28:29.820
best interest at heart, whether Republican or Democrat, they had a contest over philosophy and
00:28:36.700
values, but always at the center of those, those arguments and contests and differences was how do
00:28:44.540
we serve the American people best? How do we serve the nation best? And suddenly we have a moment in
00:28:51.260
history in which one party, the democratic party led by the Marxist Dems is saying they have a better
00:28:57.980
idea than a constitutional Republic. They have a better idea than sovereign borders. And they have a better
00:29:04.540
idea about how to move forward. Uh, and it's just stunning because they mean to destroy everything
00:29:13.980
that has been built in 250 years. And they want to disguise it with, you know, little cute expressions
00:29:19.660
about being progressives or socialists. They're not, they're totalitarians and nothing more is exemplary
00:29:27.180
of that reality than a president's who has, is cognitively impaired sitting in Washington, D.C.,
00:29:33.420
decreeing that the Southern border of this country will be wide open and inviting in already 2 million
00:29:40.220
illegal immigrants in the first 18 months of his presidency and another five to 6 million in the
00:29:46.380
next, uh, the next year are expected. This is madness. If it's madness, look, let me offer you exhibit
00:29:55.500
A. I'm going to submit to you that what you just offered, I could put as exhibit B. Exhibit A,
00:30:01.180
I would tell you is that this is the Democrats of the party that over the last 36 months or so
00:30:06.220
have rallied to defund the police. Okay. They make no mistake about it. That is it. I mean,
00:30:13.020
they quote after quote, after quote, you know, went after law enforcement, good, honorable people.
00:30:19.500
And yet, and so look at the result of what they've said, defund the police. We're going to be safe.
00:30:25.420
We're going to be bad. Our criminal justice system is, is, is, is systemically racist and unfair and
00:30:30.460
unjust. And yet crime is at an all time high. I mean, look here in Louisiana, New Orleans just
00:30:37.580
became the murder capital of the world. All right. Then you go, then so exhibit B is let's talk about
00:30:44.700
immigration. I mean, the amount of criminal activity that is flowing through that border
00:30:54.860
is unconscionable. And I tell people all the time, you know, I think that every person who supports open
00:31:02.780
borders should be required and mandated to take their front door off of their house and let them
00:31:12.220
live in their neighborhood or in their apartment building with no front door for about 12 to 24
00:31:19.900
months and see how that works out. But I would venture to say, you probably can't get anybody to
00:31:25.820
take me or you up on that. But they want, they want, they, they, they refuse to allow the United States
00:31:34.300
to put the door back on the hinges. The, the, the idea that the radical Dems have joined in wanting to,
00:31:44.940
as you said, to fund the police have now embraced, uh, no bail, uh, uh, policies all over the country.
00:31:53.020
Thanks to George Soros and his various, uh, uh, open society, uh, foundations, all of them related
00:32:00.940
to Soros, all of them related to open, uh, open society. Uh, it is, it's unconscionable what we're
00:32:08.700
watching with these prosecutors who will not prosecute violent criminals who have permitted
00:32:15.980
with their policies, murder, uh, the victimization of the citizens they're supposed to be serving.
00:32:21.180
Uh, we, we go through this. They're trying to destroy American society. It's not an accident.
00:32:27.820
It's, this is not a by-product. This is not collateral damage. This is the enemy as the
00:32:35.420
Marxist Dems see it. Everything about America, its values, its foundation, its law, and its demand for
00:32:43.740
order in our society. And individual rights are all under attack. Well, Lou, I'd like to think it
00:32:52.780
was just the prosecutors. We had to sue the Biden administration and we just got an injunction on it
00:32:59.660
up in Tennessee because there are a set of crimes that have been listed out in our federal laws that say
00:33:11.740
that if you have come into this country illegally or overstayed your visa, which places you in an
00:33:18.860
illegal status. And if you commit this list of particular crimes, it is automatic deportation.
00:33:28.540
Now, and look, this is not pickpocketing, right? This is not, you know, taking the gum, uh, down at the
00:33:35.020
7-11 off the rack and putting it in your pocket. These are violent crimes that have been listed out.
00:33:41.660
And yet the president and his administration fought us because they wanted to keep those people
00:33:48.220
in the country and they wanted to not follow the law and place them in an automatic deportation status.
00:33:54.860
Can you believe that? Oh, man. Yes, I can believe it now. Uh, I guess, I guess there is nothing,
00:34:04.140
there is literally nothing that President, uh, Joe Robinette Biden could do or say that would shock
00:34:13.980
me, surprise me or disappoint me or disgust me or infuriate me more than anything he's already done
00:34:21.660
to this country and to the American people. Well, the good news is there's a lot of great
00:34:29.420
Republican attorney generals out there that are standing with the American people doing things,
00:34:34.940
just like I said, walking into court when the president and his minions, um, completely want
00:34:40.300
to violate the law and, and create a more unstable and insecure community. And, and look, we're winning.
00:34:46.780
We're getting some great, we're great, getting some great judgments and injunctions out of the court.
00:34:52.380
Sometimes we get them quick. Sometimes they take us a little longer. Uh, but, but look, we're, we,
00:34:58.860
we, we believe that we're the watchman on the wall for America right now. And we hope that the American
00:35:03.660
people will make the right decision in upcoming elections, throw the bombs out, and we can get
00:35:08.860
back to, to building a great America. And Attorney General Jeff Landry has just said it. These
00:35:17.260
Republican attorneys general, uh, and, uh, amongst the leaders of those attorney generals certainly is,
00:35:23.500
uh, Jeff Landry, the attorney general of the great state of Louisiana,
00:35:28.300
making a huge difference without what you and your other attorneys general have done
00:35:35.580
and are doing. I can't imagine where we would be, but it would be well short of where we need to be,
00:35:42.780
uh, you know, and are at this time. I really, I just want to say thank you, uh, and commend you
00:35:50.220
for everything you're doing. And I hope that you will come back here soon, uh, and, uh, you know,
00:35:55.660
and discuss, uh, all of these important issues and what you're doing, uh, to, to make a huge difference
00:36:02.300
in the outcome of our elections, uh, assure that they're fair and honest, uh, and that the country
00:36:09.740
is secure and American citizens are safe. Well, thank you, Lou. We're going to keep doing the job
00:36:16.780
the American people hired us to, and we'll keep doing it as long as they'll keep us in these jobs,
00:36:21.340
uh, but certainly appreciate you sharing, uh, your audience with us, uh, today and, and look forward to
00:36:27.180
visiting again soon. I do too. Thank you so much. Attorney General Jeff Landry of the great state of
00:36:34.300
Louisiana. God bless you. Thank you. Thanks everybody for joining us today here on the great America show.
00:36:42.140
And please be with us here tomorrow when our guest will be Congressman Troy Nels of the great state
00:36:48.940
of Texas. That's tomorrow. Please join us until then. God bless you. And God bless America.
