The Great America Show's Lou Dobbs takes a look at a situation that's giving many people pause and causes considerable cause to pause and think, trying to figure out what in the world is going on in our lives here in America.
00:03:10.260But that isn't enough in this upside-down world of Joe Biden's making.
00:03:15.560Our guest today is the Attorney General of the great state of Texas, Ken Paxton.
00:03:20.320Mr. Attorney General, great to have you here.
00:03:23.580And let's begin with your efforts to have the Supreme Court demand that the Biden regime obey the law
00:03:30.100when it comes to deporting dangerous criminal illegal immigrants.
00:03:35.320Well, so it's kind of shocking to think.
00:03:37.500I mean, we're already in this position of them ignoring, not just ignoring,
00:03:41.360but really running roughshod over federal law that requires them to deport people here who are illegal.
00:03:46.840The reason they're illegal is that the law says they're not supposed to be here.
00:03:50.160The Biden administration says, to heck with the law, we're in power and we're not following laws.
00:03:56.020And so that's literally what we deal with every day.
00:03:58.260We, you know, stop building the wall, which money was appropriated to build, and they're supposed to build the wall.
00:04:03.480They stopped catching relief, and now everything is catching relief.
00:04:07.700They're trying to stop Title 42, which protects us from people that are sick coming into our country.
00:04:12.060They've stopped the Remain in Mexico program, which was designed to stop the loophole that's being used with asylum.
00:04:18.420And now here we are, as if that's not enough.
00:04:21.580They have decided that they want as many criminals here as possible, and so other countries are sending, you know, sending criminals up here.
00:04:30.580And we are saying, even if we know they're criminals, even if they've been released from prison,
00:04:34.880the Biden administration is saying, in many cases, we'd love to have them, no matter what their background is.
00:04:41.320So it's hard to believe that a president that really cared about America and the people of America is willing to put our citizens at such great risk
00:04:51.580and realize that some people are going to be harmed, some people are going to die, and yet he says, bring it on.
00:06:24.420They are fighting with government resources to get as many criminals here as they can.
00:06:29.240And I don't know how to think of that in a good way.
00:06:31.540And if there's some way to put it in a good way or to give a better light to it, I'd love for the Biden administration to go ahead and tell me how I'm wrong.
00:06:40.140This administration has much to explain, and we also now know they will not be explaining.
00:06:47.040And even if they did, they'd be lying.
00:06:49.200This is an administration without credibility, without conscience, without ethics.
00:06:56.940And as you say, I think you said it exactly right.
00:07:01.660They believe they're in power, which entitles them not to obey or enforce our laws.
00:07:07.600There's no other way really to look at it, is there?
00:07:10.180They have no respect for what our founders put in place, which is a government of the people, by the people, for the people.
00:07:16.940They think that they are smart enough, that they deserve to be able to tell us what to do because we're not good people.
00:07:23.060And so they're trying to do their best, to subvert the Constitution, to use corporations, woke corporations, to step in their way and affect First Amendment rights, freedom of speech, freedom of religion, Second Amendment rights to other corporations.
00:07:42.000So they're using the cover of corporations.
00:09:13.640They don't decide what contents on there.
00:09:15.240And yet, we all know thousands of stories about it, whether it's Twitter or whether it's Google or whether it's any other company, Facebook.
00:09:23.520They are not just – they are publishers because they are making editorial decisions.
00:09:28.680And so, if they get special protection under Section 230, and yet, at the same time, they do exactly what other companies do, like newspapers.
00:09:41.540But no, in our country, publishers – these tech companies get protected from anything they say or do because they're not making decisions.
00:09:49.600So, they're having it both ways, and the government is in the middle of telling Facebook – we already know they did it with the Hunter Biden story – and they're doing it with other stories about whether people are talking about COVID or whether they're talking about the election.
00:10:04.900They're being flagged, and the government is participating in that flagging by directing this and then receiving information about that.
00:10:11.960This is what I'm talking about, the government indirectly doing what they couldn't do directly and using corporate America to participate in a scheme to defraud the American people of their constitutional rights.
00:10:43.560They are no longer U.S. multinationals.
00:10:46.320They are multinational, corporate global at work.
00:10:53.480And when you talk about the idea that FedEx and UPS would suddenly come to this decision together at the same time focusing on guns, there's no other explanation.
00:11:10.580And look, we've got – we've sent out civil investigative demands, which are like interrogatories or questions for these companies, to give us the answers.
00:11:23.100I really – I don't want this to be the case.
00:11:24.760I want Americans to be free and not have the federal government intruding upon their Second Amendment rights.
00:11:31.180But I don't – I can't think of an explanation.
00:11:33.780I haven't been – nobody else has given me an explanation.
00:11:36.320So we're going to find out if they'll answer our questions truthfully.
00:11:40.080And if they don't, we'll sue them to find out.
00:11:42.540And by the way, I don't view every corporation as woke, but there are certainly many of the large corporations that you're talking about, the international, the multinational, they are definitely woke.
00:11:56.020Have you received, by the way, any kind of discussion in the wake particularly of the midterms about what the Republican Party is going to do about illegal immigration, what they are going to do?
00:12:08.940You know, I've heard about all these – Mayorkas is going to be impeached.
00:12:13.780I've heard, you know, all of that stuff and Biden family investigations, all of which is important.
00:12:22.200But we're not hearing anything about an investigation into the impact of 6 million illegal immigrants coming into the country.
00:12:30.520We're not hearing any hearings or investigations into that or the impact on our societies by those violent criminals that you're talking about.
00:12:43.500Isn't that surprising that we haven't heard from the Republican leadership on those issues because they're so important to our quality of life?
00:12:51.500I agree with you, and I would call on Kevin McCarthy or whoever ends up being Speaker of the House to do those investigations.
00:12:58.640It's the only way that we can expose – we obviously don't have the ability to pass legislation because we don't control the Senate and we don't control the White House.
00:13:07.040And so we need our few elected leaders in the Republican Party to hold the other party accountable for the devastation and the crime and the deaths that are being caused so the American people can at least know the facts, know what really is going on, and have the answers to the questions of why we're letting terrorists and why we're letting criminals and why we're letting the drug trade go, why we're allowing massive human trafficking along the border and participating with the cartels in aiding and abetting their operations.
00:13:37.040That question should be at least shown to the American people so that they have the opportunity to make a decision.
00:13:43.200Do I want this? Do I love this? Do I keep supporting this? Or do I say, no, this is too much. My family's at risk.
00:13:51.140You're absolutely right. And I think, again, it highlights a reality that people have to understand and take to heart.
00:14:00.960And that is when we talk about corporate America, corporations, big business in this country.
00:14:07.040We're talking about, that includes big media, the corporations, globalist corporations own all of our major media in this country.
00:14:22.060I don't know what the number is. It has to approach 100 percent.
00:14:25.520But also, I'll just say almost. And for people not to understand that corporations aren't the right, at one time, they were Republican as could be.
00:14:36.460They were conservative as could be. And they were reliably good citizens of a great America.
00:14:43.100They are no longer that. And I don't care what the United States, the United Citizens Law says.
00:14:49.820Corporations are not individuals. They're not citizens.
00:14:52.740And these corporations now can are not even American citizens if they are citizens at all.
00:14:59.800No. No. Look, some of these companies are aiding and abetting the Chinese.
00:15:06.240And they're sort of moved to become the dominant superpower at our expense, not to just be competitive with us, but to actually dominate us and hurt us.
00:15:18.380They're not out to just benefit their own people. They're competing to destroy us.
00:15:23.340And yet we have many corporations who are over there participating with the Chinese and doing exactly that.
00:15:29.140Those are not friendly American corporations anymore.
00:15:31.660They may have started here, but if they're in any way abetting other nations, whether it's China or Russia or any other country that wants to harm us,
00:15:43.280They're for their own corporate profits and their own corporate interests that have somehow diverged and diverted from caring about the country they started in and that gave them their opportunity.
00:15:54.160And, you know, going back to your point about the number of very dangerous, deadly criminals that are coming across the border, very deadly.
00:16:03.940Fentanyl is coming across that country as part of the it is a Chinese Mexico enterprise.
00:16:10.020The cartels are manufacturing it here with the assistance of both the precursors, the ingredients in fentanyl and also their scientists who are putting it together and shipping it into this country to kill hundreds of thousands of Americans.
00:16:30.740And yet we're not hearing a word from the Republican national leadership about the importance of securing that border, about the importance of holding Mexico accountable.
00:16:45.460Where violence, as you know better than any of us, I believe, I mean, the violence that's taking place right now, particularly from Mexico City north in Mexico, that cartel violence is out of control.
00:17:00.420And Manuel Lopez Obrador hasn't got a clue what he's doing unless it is his intention to enable the cartels.
00:17:10.440Look, he may be spirit of them, too, as they gain more power and as we enable them.
00:17:15.900And make no mistake about it, the Biden administration is not just enabling, we're in a tacit partnership with them.
00:17:24.600We may not have a signed document, but the cartels know that the Biden administration has invited them to bring as many people here as possible.
00:17:33.280And he's told them, hey, the borders are not protected.
00:17:53.640I challenge them to step forward and tell me how this isn't true, that they are sacrificing American lives and they're doing it by helping the cartels and the Chinese kill Americans.
00:20:06.020And meanwhile, we have upwards of 800 people, American citizens held in various Bureau of Prisons facilities in and around Washington, D.C.,
00:20:20.920where many of them have been there for almost two years.
00:20:35.860And we don't hear a word from the Republican Party.
00:20:38.520We don't hear a word from civil rights organizations like the ACLU.
00:20:43.600We hear nothing from the American Bar Association.
00:20:47.220We hear nothing from the Veterans Association.
00:20:49.500Some of those folks who are being treated like they're in a Russian gulag are American veterans as well as American citizens.
00:20:59.580Your thoughts, Ken, as we sit here today, almost two years they've been incarcerated and without effect,
00:21:09.480none of their advocates seem to be able to bring either American justice or the Constitution to bear against the awful might of the Biden regime.
