00:00:00.000 Hello everybody, I'm John Fawcett with this Great America Show midday update for Wednesday, January 29th.
00:00:05.620 Tom Holman, the Borders are as hard at work, perhaps the hardest working man in the Trump administration, of course second to Donald Trump.
00:00:12.940 ISIS reportedly detained and deported almost 8,000 illegal in President Trump's first week.
00:00:20.180 Most of those deported migrants, or as we like to call them, illegal aliens,
00:00:23.100 were criminals guilty of or facing charges of robbery, rape, assault, domestic violence, drunk driving, and or reckless driving.
00:00:30.900 President Trump, however, wants to step up those numbers and get a few more of them out.
00:00:34.780 He wants to raise this pace to 1,200 to 1,500 deportations each day.
00:00:39.420 That would bring the total number of deportations up to roughly 500,000 migrants annually.
00:00:44.140 Folks, these aren't your good old-fashioned people who are in this country for good.
00:00:48.540 These are criminals. These are people who want to do harm to your family.
00:00:51.340 They want to do harm to this economy, and they want to do harm to society.
00:00:55.580 So good on Tom Holman, and good on President Trump keeping his campaign promise.
00:01:00.760 RFK Jr. on Capitol Hill today before the Senate, where he's sitting for Senate confirmation hearings
00:01:05.720 for the Secretary of Health and Human Services.
00:01:09.680 A lot of supporters out there for RFK Jr. rallying behind him, showing support.
00:01:15.020 We're going to need the rhinos in the Republican Party to quit playing games
00:01:19.060 and to stand behind RFK Jr. and the America First movement that the American people so overwhelmingly voted for.
00:01:28.420 And border crossings.
00:01:29.960 Imagine this, folks. Border apprehensions are plummeting as the Trump effect sets in.
00:01:35.140 In the Del Rio border patrol sector, once one of the busiest regions for illegal border crossings in Texas,
00:01:41.100 migrant apprehensions have dropped nearly 40% in the first full week of Trump's presidency.
00:01:46.020 The drop has been noted across the southwest border as enhanced immigration operations promised by the Trump campaign
00:01:51.660 during the election season have begun to take shape.
00:01:55.380 According to the Border Patrol, the numbers of suspect gotaways in the Del Rio sector also plummeting,
00:02:00.380 dropping more than 60% from 229 to 82 during the post-inauguration week.
00:02:05.800 In the Texas Rio Grande Valley, daily migrant apprehensions during the weekend before the inauguration fell to just 211 compared to 1,200 over the same period
00:02:15.540 one week before the inauguration.
00:02:18.460 Known migrant gotaways from that border region dropped nearly 40% from 75 to 46.
00:02:23.260 These numbers are all according to Border Patrol.
00:02:25.280 Folks, the Trump effect has taken effect and is only going to get better here for the American people
00:02:31.340 and for everyone who's been a victim of illegal immigration across this country.
00:02:37.260 Trump's border czar Tom Homan, who we often parade on this show, was on with Jesse Walters on Fox News last night,
00:02:43.040 says ICE and his czar position are just now getting to work.
00:02:48.040 Take a listen.
00:02:48.480 Are you satisfied, Tom Homan, with the pace of migrant deportations?
00:02:56.720 No.
00:02:57.420 We've got to do more.
00:02:58.740 We've got to open that aperture up, which we're going to do.
00:03:01.640 It was a great start.
00:03:02.560 The first week was unprecedented.
00:03:04.580 I mean, the illegal crossings on the border one day was like 540.
00:03:08.140 I've never seen that, and I started on the border until 1984.
00:03:10.860 And we went from 10,000 a day to under 600.
00:03:14.960 So it's great, it's good, but we're not finished, and we need more deportations, a lot more deportations,
00:03:21.380 and that's what we're working on.
00:03:22.400 So as you mentioned, it was 10,000 a day for many, many days under Joe Biden,
00:03:26.800 and you guys are basically on pace for just around 10,000 per week.
00:03:31.660 What's your biggest challenge that's holding you back from capturing and deporting more criminal migrants?
00:03:39.940 Sanctuary cities.
00:03:40.880 Sanctuary cities are difficult to operate in.
00:03:43.020 You know, we'd much rather arrest one agent than arrest one bad guy in a jail.
00:03:48.400 Tom Holman doing the Lord's work, doing a great job for America and truth, justice, and the American way, folks.
00:03:55.760 Godspeed for Tom Holman.
00:03:57.300 Folks, please be sure to join us for today's episode of The Great America Show.
00:04:00.040 We're joined by brilliant economist John Lonsky of the Lonsky Group.
00:04:03.040 We take up the economy moving forward.
00:04:04.980 When we can expect inflation to hit rock bottom,
00:04:07.680 when we can expect our gas prices to take effect, the Trump effect, as we're seeing across the board.
00:04:13.420 And where this economy is heading, is it stable, is it not?
00:04:16.260 What's next for Jerome Powell?
