00:00:00.000 Hello, everybody, and welcome to The Great America Show.
00:00:05.220 Thank you so much for joining us today.
00:00:06.780 It's an honor to have you with us.
00:00:08.780 So we're just over a week since President Trump's resounding victory on November 5th.
00:00:14.620 A lot of stuff has happened since that victory.
00:00:17.380 This week, President Trump was due back in court in that New York courtroom in front
00:00:21.100 of Judge Wanmerchant, where he was set to be sentenced for that Stormy Daniels Husk
00:00:26.100 Money sham case that was brought by Alvin Bragg and Tish James.
00:00:30.680 Judge Merchant now delaying that sentencing another week while President Trump's lawyers
00:00:35.680 file a brief to have that case dismissed.
00:00:38.400 So we'll keep an eye on that and keep you guys up to date on where that case is leading
00:00:43.380 and any other further rulings from Judge Wanmerchant.
00:00:47.460 Well, President Trump is hard at work trying to build his team in his cabinet for his next
00:00:52.840 administration.
00:00:53.500 I want to go through some of these people so far that President Trump has appointed
00:00:58.420 to positions in his cabinet and in the White House.
00:01:02.200 So for his cabinet so far, he's got Secretary of State Marco Rubio.
00:01:05.760 Now, these are all pending Senate confirmation, of course, but who President Trump has tapped
00:01:09.800 so far.
00:01:10.340 So Marco Rubio has been tapped for Secretary of State.
00:01:13.340 Former congressman, New York congressman, and New York gubernatorial candidate Lee Zeldin
00:01:17.700 tapped to head up the EPA.
00:01:19.220 Congresswoman from New York, Elise Stefanik, tapped to run the UN ambassadorship program
00:01:25.060 they have running over there.
00:01:26.460 Homeland Security Secretary, Kristi Noem, the governor of South Dakota.
00:01:31.040 Ambassador to Israel, the great Mike Huckabee, former Arkansas governor.
00:01:35.420 John Ratcliffe, former DNI, is tapped to head up the CIA.
00:01:41.340 And then, of course, Susie Wiles, President Trump's campaign manager, is tapped as chief
00:01:47.380 of staff with former Trump advisor Stephen Miller being tapped as her deputy.
00:01:51.900 So this cabinet's starting to be shaped up a little bit, you know, as we come into these
00:01:56.740 weeks after the election, as we look towards January, where President Trump will be sworn
00:02:01.960 in as the 47th president of the United States.
00:02:04.920 I know, just about two weeks ago, we were all wondering if we'd be saying that.
00:02:09.600 It turns out now he's the 47th president of the United States.
00:02:14.880 Over in Congress, today, later on today, the Senate is going to vote for the next Republican
00:02:21.240 majority leader.
00:02:22.240 And on the ballot is two rhinos and then someone who's sort of middle of the road. 0.89
00:02:26.220 You've got John Cornyn and John Thune.
00:02:28.580 And then you've got Rick Scott, who seems to be the choice of the MAGA crowd.
00:02:32.420 Now, Donald Trump has not weighed in on it, given his opinion on who he wants to take that
00:02:39.100 job.
00:02:39.460 But from behind the scenes, the Trump folks seem to be rallying behind Senator Rick Scott.
00:02:46.160 Of course, that ballot is going to be a secretive ballot, and we're not going to find out who
00:02:50.880 exactly voted for who.
00:02:52.620 So it's most likely a rhino will prevail, Cornyn or Thune, both anti-Trump haters, both anti-Jan
00:03:01.680 six people who don't believe those Jan six prisoners should be freed.
00:03:05.560 Um, all people who, both people who don't support President Trump or his agenda.
00:03:10.580 So unless that vote's delayed by some grace of God, it's looking like we'll probably have
00:03:15.240 a rhino, uh, running the Senate, uh, Republican leadership over on the house side.
00:03:20.980 Uh, the Republicans are holding their internal meetings to elect their, uh, GOP position.
00:03:26.240 So majority leader for leader and, uh, whip and all those folks, conservatives are planning
00:03:32.260 to nominate a challenger to Mike Johnson.
00:03:35.340 Now this too will be secret ballot.
00:03:37.580 So we won't find out, um, who votes and how they vote, but I think this is to send a message.
00:03:43.620 Now it's unlikely it'll be successful.
00:03:45.560 We'll probably have a rhino Mike Johnson as the speaker of the house, but with the slim 1.00
00:03:52.120 majority that the Republicans have, um, or they're going to have in Congress by four or
00:03:58.600 five seats, I think this is to send a message to Mike Johnson and let him know not to play
00:04:03.360 around, uh, just as was sent to Kevin McCarthy, who was ultimately ousted for being a liar and,
00:04:08.900 uh, and not holding true his Republican values.
00:04:11.660 Uh, so it's going to be interesting to see what happens there.
00:04:14.880 Um, Mike Johnson will probably prevail in that election.
00:04:18.900 Um, but I think this is a, is, as Lou would say, it's a warning shot over the bow to let him
00:04:25.200 know not to play any games and that MAGA won this election and that president Trump is the
00:04:30.500 leader of the Republican party.
00:04:31.680 And what president Trump says goes, and you will set an agenda for president Trump that
00:04:36.240 makes sense, an agenda that we can get past the house, an agenda that we can get past the
00:04:40.700 Senate and you will hold forth his border policy that he has run on.
00:04:44.320 Um, borders are Tom Holman is, is going to do an excellent job in my opinion, uh, in shutting
00:04:50.260 down this border and, and deporting these illegals who have come to this country illegally and 0.99
00:04:55.880 have caused crime and brought gangs here and, and brought drugs here.
00:04:59.800 And the list goes on, uh, for that.
00:05:02.140 So our guest today is someone who knows a little bit about the border.
00:05:05.320 Um, someone who ran for Senate in Arizona.
00:05:08.540 Uh, he's Sheriff Mark Lamb of Pinal County.
00:05:11.260 He's a great American.
00:05:12.460 Um, and he's been fighting out against illegal immigration for years now.
00:05:16.880 Um, so it's going to be incumbent on president Trump and his team to get it together and
00:05:22.220 make sure that these people are deported and our border is secured because that's what 1.00
00:05:26.700 the American people voted for when they went to vote on November 5th, president Trump was
00:05:30.700 very clear about his plans and what he wanted done and the deportations he wanted done.
00:05:35.200 So it's going to be up to Congress now to go ahead and do that.
00:05:38.860 So, like I said, our guest today, Sheriff Mark Lamb of the great state of Arizona, Mark Lamb.
00:05:44.140 Thanks so much for joining us today here on the great America show.
00:05:46.880 I want to start with a resounding victory, Mark, for president Trump just over a week ago.
00:05:51.740 Uh, today it's unbelievable.
00:05:54.300 The, the, the historic unprecedented when we saw Mark, none of us expected him to win the
00:06:00.020 popular vote.
00:06:00.660 I certainly went on the show on the record and said, I didn't expect him to sweep, uh,
00:06:04.920 Wisconsin, Michigan, all these States, Arizona, Nevada, your thoughts.
00:06:08.800 Now, as we sit here a week later and we see this thing become a reality.
00:06:12.720 Well, I'm like you, first of all, I'm happy as can be.
00:06:15.440 I think a lot of Americans had a big sigh of relief.
00:06:17.820 We've all been on a little bit of a cloud nine this last week.
00:06:20.460 And then seeing some of the, some of the people he's already putting in place is making us
00:06:24.500 feel even better.
00:06:25.780 Um, look, I wasn't surprised that he won.
00:06:28.960 Uh, I said, I was getting ready to do trace Gallagher the night of the election.
00:06:32.780 And he, he, right before we went on air, he said, were you surprised?
00:06:36.040 And I said, I'm surprised by how well he did, how many, how all these States did.
00:06:41.700 I said, but the minute God stayed him, that bullet missed his head.
00:06:46.320 I knew there was, there was providence behind this race and divine intervention.
00:06:50.680 And so I felt really good about him winning.
00:06:53.240 I kept saying, I thought he would win by five points in Arizona.
00:06:55.840 What I didn't realize is how well he was going to do in Wisconsin, Georgia, Pennsylvania, boy,
00:07:02.540 he dominated there.
00:07:03.780 And Arizona was one of the weaker ones.
00:07:05.920 Um, and obviously we can't count votes very well and took us several days, but in the
00:07:11.340 end, what a great showing.
00:07:13.260 And I think it really shows, and I hope that the Democrats take notice because it shows that
00:07:19.140 their policies are failure, failed policies and Americans are done with them.
00:07:25.000 Yeah.
00:07:25.220 You know, I, it was funny.
00:07:26.300 I'm watching an election.
00:07:27.240 I did a seven hour live stream on our rumble channel here.
00:07:29.940 And I see Florida come in with, you know, uh, 11 million votes within an hour, Mark, we
00:07:35.260 knew that Donald Trump had won by 13 or so points, absolutely annihilating her.
00:07:39.820 We didn't go to Arizona where it's just over 3 million votes and it takes days and days and
00:07:44.560 days.
00:07:44.960 And now I had Fox news on in the background to see if Brett Baer was maybe going to go
00:07:48.920 ahead and call Arizona early to see, uh, with president Trump having the lead, nonetheless,
00:07:52.860 he didn't.
00:07:53.740 Uh, but it's just unbelievable that we cannot get these elections, Mark counted on election
00:07:59.200 night.
00:07:59.480 It's such a simple, uh, procedure, one ballot in one vote in boom.
00:08:04.920 One tally on one side, vice versa, vice versa.
00:08:07.620 Yet you, you have these counties, Mark, that just can't seem to get it back together.
00:08:12.980 Um, one I was surprised for was, was Arizona, man, you guys came in and you guys showed up
00:08:17.700 and, and I think, uh, comparative, comparatively from 2020, every single County in Arizona, uh,
00:08:25.660 went to the right.
00:08:26.360 Some of them five points, uh, some of them up to 17 points, I believe, uh, down in Santa,
00:08:30.980 Santa Cruz County, 17 points to the right from 2020.
00:08:35.140 I mean, how big of a referendum is this on the democratic party and on their ways, their
00:08:40.280 old ways and their old policies, Mark?
00:08:42.600 Well, it's a huge referendum.
00:08:44.300 The problem is I don't know that they're going to see it.
00:08:46.940 You know, I'm watching some of these news clips and they're trying to blame each other
00:08:50.640 and find excuses for what they're blaming, Mark.
00:08:53.400 They're calling it misogyny.
00:08:55.420 If the, if the Latin men don't vote for it, they're misogynists. 0.99
00:08:59.100 If you'd, if anybody else, they're racist or they've abandoned their race or whatever,
00:09:03.020 they got some excuse for it all.
00:09:05.020 Instead of just saying, look, we've got to see what we did wrong.
00:09:09.640 And I just think that in America, we have a problem with that first and foremost, and
00:09:13.840 we've certainly have a problem with it in leadership in America, especially elected officials
00:09:18.000 of recognizing when they're wrong and course correcting and, uh, they didn't do it.
00:09:23.460 And I don't know that they're going to do it here.
00:09:25.280 I really don't think, I think there's, they still think these are policies that the American
00:09:29.800 people want, despite the fact that the popular vote, the electoral college, everything went
00:09:34.880 to Trump.
00:09:35.500 He bettered himself in every single County.
00:09:38.000 There wasn't a single County in this country where Kamala did better than Joe Biden did four
00:09:42.740 years ago.
00:09:43.860 So I hope that they opened their eyes.
00:09:46.320 I don't know that they will.
00:09:48.000 Um, they should, what was, I think it was HR one or HR two, that border bill that Kamala
00:09:53.860 came out and said, well, Donald Trump could have shut down the border and he could have
00:09:57.340 done it.
00:09:58.140 Um, but he called his cronies and his minions in the Senate and the house and said, you
00:10:01.640 kill that bill right now. 0.68
00:10:03.360 Uh, unbelievable.
00:10:04.760 We see her at that speaking out of many campaign events and then on the camp on the
00:10:08.280 stage with Donald Trump.
00:10:09.620 But the truth of the matter is Marcus, they admitted the silent part out loud is that we can
00:10:14.120 shut down the border.
00:10:15.080 We don't need a bill to follow the law.
00:10:17.300 I mean, it's, it doesn't get much dumber than that.
00:10:19.380 And she's sitting there saying, you know, well, Donald Trump killed this bill, the bill
00:10:23.040 that said we can allow 6,000 illegals in a day.
00:10:25.560 And then after we hit that 6,000 illegal mark, then we shut down the border.
00:10:28.940 I mean, it was the biggest bullshit scam mark I'd ever seen in my entire life.
00:10:33.080 My question to you is, do you think, I know you're saying that you don't think the Democrats
00:10:37.920 see the writing in the mirror, but, or the writing on the wall rather.
00:10:40.920 But do you think now with all this crazy rhetoric we heard them say and how in favor they were
00:10:45.960 of this House resolution that secured the border, do you think now they'll be open to working
00:10:50.260 with President Trump to shut down that border once and for all?
00:10:53.160 No, no, they'll be right back to fighting with them.
00:10:55.700 Look, first of all, it wasn't HR2.
00:10:57.380 HR2 was actually a pretty decent bill that came out of the House, which the Senate just
00:11:02.020 kind of threw dirt on.
00:11:03.220 And they never really brought it to the forefront.
00:11:05.840 That was a pretty decent bill.
00:11:08.100 And look, they had no intention of passing the border bill that Kamala Harris was talking
00:11:12.940 about.
00:11:13.700 That was a global assistance bill.
00:11:16.800 That was money going to Ukraine and all over the place.
00:11:19.300 And it had about $20 billion going to the border.
00:11:21.720 So first of all, it was not a border bill.
00:11:23.640 They labeled it as a border bill.
00:11:25.360 They never intended for that to pass.
00:11:27.700 All they wanted was for a few Republicans to sign off on it.
00:11:30.760 And they knew that they were going to use this as a campaign ploy to go out and say,
00:11:36.240 look, see, we tried to fix the border and the Republicans didn't want to fix it.
00:11:40.220 The reality is, and this is where I was really disappointed with Republicans along this campaign
00:11:45.120 trail.
00:11:45.660 They didn't do enough to just crush that bill because they didn't want to hurt each other's
00:11:50.900 feelings for those who did sign on to it.
00:11:53.140 And the reality was it was a disastrous bill, especially the border piece.
00:11:57.300 They wanted to codify into law the fact that 5,000 people a day for seven days straight.
00:12:03.600 If you only hit five days straight, you'd start all over again.
00:12:06.900 Or even on the seventh day, if you only hit 4,500, it starts all over again.
00:12:12.260 The acceptable number for Americans should be zero. 0.93
00:12:16.860 That's what it should be, zero.
00:12:18.820 So that was the first thing.
00:12:19.940 The second one, we're struggling financially.
00:12:22.080 We don't have money to be sending all over the place.
00:12:23.920 They wanted to give another $2.3 billion to the same NGOs who are currently aiding and
00:12:29.280 abetting in this trafficking of humans into this country.
00:12:32.720 They're being financially incentivized to continue this problem.
00:12:37.000 And then they wanted to give another $9 billion to the State Department, which would ultimately
00:12:43.960 end up in the UN's hands, for global migration.
00:12:48.060 So that money was going to continue to fund the invasion into our country.
00:12:51.380 That's $11 billion of our hard-earned tax dollars that was going to continue to go there.
00:12:56.160 I can go on and on.
00:12:57.560 But those alone should have been enough to kill the bill.
00:13:01.180 And look, in the end, they can blame President Trump.
00:13:03.680 I'm glad he put pressure.
00:13:05.180 But the senators make their own decisions.
00:13:07.240 He didn't go and push the buttons for that.
00:13:09.320 They said, we're not going to pass this bill.
00:13:11.700 And remember, the Democrats never wanted this bill passed in the first place.
00:13:15.660 What they wanted was for the Republicans to blame Republicans during the campaign trail.
00:13:20.260 They succeeded.
00:13:21.740 Republicans failed on destroying this bill and that narrative.
00:13:26.480 You're absolutely right.
00:13:27.440 And you mentioned the Senate, and that's going to be a big fight now coming up later today.
00:13:31.760 They're hosting a silent vote in the Senate.
00:13:34.960 Who's going to be the leader?
00:13:36.200 And I mean, it's between two rhinos and someone who's sort of middle of the road,
00:13:40.080 John Cornyn, Thune, and Rick Scott.
00:13:43.540 Now, I don't think Rick Scott's the greatest man for the job,
00:13:45.860 but he's the only man in the ring who's thrown his hat in there to go ahead and lead the Senate
00:13:50.860 after frog horn, leg horn, Mitch McConnell decides he's finally had enough.
00:13:55.400 We're going to take a quick break here.
00:13:56.720 We're talking with Sheriff Mark Lamb of Pinal County.
00:13:58.920 We're coming right back to take up what's going to happen in this next administration.
00:14:03.160 Some of these political appointments.
00:14:04.600 Tom Holman, who I think is one of the greatest guys you could have picked to be border czar,
00:14:09.020 is going to be leading the effort.
00:14:10.660 We're going to take that up with Mark Lamb.
00:14:12.100 When we return, stay with us.
00:14:13.240 Folks, as a lot of you may know, Mike Lindell and MyPillow no longer have the support of their box stores
00:14:19.640 or shopping channels the way they used to.
00:14:21.780 They've been part of this cancel culture, so they want to pass savings directly on to you.
00:14:25.700 So they're bringing back the $25 extravaganza.
00:14:28.640 When Mike started MyPillow, it was just a one problem, one solution company.
00:14:32.540 Well, since then, with the help of his dedicated employees, they now have hundreds of products
00:14:37.060 some of you may not even know about.
00:14:39.220 To get the word out, they're having a $25 extravaganza.

00:15:19.360 We're back.
00:15:22.620 We're talking with Sheriff Mark Lamb of Pinal County, a great American.
00:15:25.960 I think he's done an excellent job doing what he can with the hand he's dealt down in the great state of Arizona
00:15:31.300 with the Marxists, doing all they can to stop the Republicans from shutting down this border invasion once and for all.
00:15:38.100 But we have a new light, Mark, and that light is by a man that goes by the name of Tom Holman.
00:15:43.500 I want to play for the audience, those of you who haven't watched this show or just started watching this show
00:15:47.620 and hadn't watched Lou for years, Tom Holman was on our show all the time.
00:15:51.840 I want to play a clip from Tom Holman of the Senate Judiciary Committee two years ago or so,
00:15:56.660 just so you can get an idea of who Tom Holman is and how much he cares what you think of him.
00:16:01.060 Do you want to not have these issues?
00:16:02.040 Because you have failed to secure the border.
00:16:03.680 You have failed to work with this president to close the three loopholes.
00:16:06.680 We've asked for two years to close.
00:16:08.680 So if you want to know why this issue exists, you need to look in the mirror.
00:16:12.080 You have failed American people who are not securing the border and closing loopholes.
00:16:15.580 Mr. Holman, please respect the chair and the authority of the chair.
00:16:21.060 The time of the gentleman has expired.
00:16:23.540 I've asked you politely to let me go beyond my time and you let other people go beyond their time,
00:16:28.060 but not to Tom Holman.
00:16:29.420 He don't get me to go beyond this time.
00:16:30.940 Mr. Holman, we have approved an agreement between the Republicans
00:16:36.140 and the Democrats with the ranking member.
00:16:38.360 We increased the time of one witness, one member of Congress who was interrupted by a protest.
00:16:45.060 That is done with the approval of the ranking member.
00:16:48.720 Please respect the chair's authority.
00:16:51.040 I respect the chair's authority, but the chair...
00:16:52.920 Mr. Holman!
00:16:53.700 You work for me.
00:16:54.700 I'm a taxpayer.
00:16:57.980 I'm a taxpayer.
00:16:58.880 You work for me.
00:17:01.680 The witness will suspend.
00:17:05.500 You know, I think I like him so much because I can relate to him.
00:17:08.520 My whole life I've had to have the last word, Mark.
00:17:10.740 And Tom just didn't give a shit what he said.
00:17:13.280 Oh, I love it.
00:17:14.980 He's so right.
00:17:16.040 But how do you feel now that that's going to be the man leading our border fight?
00:17:21.160 Well, you know, you said it's a bright light.
00:17:23.540 But I can only picture this as it's dark.
00:17:26.040 You see this bright light coming as it gets closer.
00:17:28.140 You realize it's a freight train.
00:17:30.020 And that's what he's a freight train coming at you.
00:17:32.980 And you know what?
00:17:33.800 This is what we need.
00:17:35.440 Look, I've always said we've created these hard times.
00:17:38.760 And the only way out of them is through hard decisions and hard consequences.
00:17:45.040 Look, people are going to blame the work that needs to be done now.
00:17:49.320 But who they should be blaming are the people that created these problems that are now going
00:17:54.660 to take really tough times to fix.
00:17:57.720 That's what true leadership is.
00:17:59.940 True leadership is we're going to do what's right.
00:18:02.000 People may not like it.
00:18:03.320 They're going to say things about us.
00:18:04.740 The media is going to report on us.
00:18:06.660 The politicians are going to try to stifle us.
00:18:09.280 But in the end, Tom was right.
00:18:11.040 These folks forget that they work for us, we the people.
00:18:15.900 And I love that Tom.
00:18:17.000 Tom is a real man.
00:18:18.060 He's a real American.
00:18:20.580 He's an alpha male.
00:18:22.260 And you know what?
00:18:22.880 He's going to go in there and he's going to execute and do the job that has been asked
00:18:26.800 of him to do.
00:18:28.080 And I'm pretty dang excited.
00:18:30.080 I think he's going to do a great job.
00:18:31.280 I, too, messaged him yesterday and just said, hey, Tom, congratulations.
00:18:34.900 I couldn't think of anybody better to be the border czar right now.
00:18:38.300 You know, I texted a little yesterday.
00:18:40.600 I'll just read the audience a text because he's a short man.
00:18:44.920 And it's short, not literally short, man, but, you know, short with his sentences.
00:18:48.020 I said, I said, Tom, congrats.
00:18:50.640 Much deserved.
00:18:51.480 I know Lou is smiling down knowing that POTUS picked the right man for the right job.
00:18:55.500 And he said, oh, man, God bless the great Lou Dobbs.
00:18:58.760 Because we I mean, you know, there was very few people who you would cover things like
00:19:02.940 that.
00:19:03.160 And Lou was one of the few people, Mark, who would go on television for years.
00:19:06.480 It wasn't just these last five years, Mark.
00:19:08.300 It was the last 20 years about the threats of illegal immigration and what they're doing
00:19:12.680 to our country and the problems it's going to have.
00:19:15.020 When Elon Musk came out and said, if the Republicans lose this election, it's the last election.
00:19:19.580 People said, oh, he's crazy.
00:19:20.920 What the hell is he talking about?
00:19:22.200 No, it's simple, Mark.
00:19:23.060 You bring in 20, 30 million illegals and that's it.
00:19:26.220 You flood the voter rolls and a Republican can never win again.
00:19:28.940 It's so simple.
00:19:30.100 But what comes with Tom now is going to be these mass deportations that President Trump
00:19:34.740 promised.
00:19:35.600 A lot of people didn't think he was going to come through on them.
00:19:37.480 We still haven't seen if he's going to.
00:19:38.780 But it seems like he has every intent to.
00:19:40.900 This is Tom Holman on 60 Minutes just a few weeks ago before he got picked for the job
00:19:45.460 on what he plans to do.
00:19:47.440 We have seen one estimate that says it would cost $88 billion to deport a million people
00:19:54.120 a year.
00:19:56.640 I don't know if that's accurate or not.
00:19:58.040 Is that what American taxpayers should expect?
00:20:01.800 What price do you put on national security?
00:20:03.480 Is that worth it?
00:20:04.600 Is there a way to carry out mass deportation without separating families?
00:20:09.840 Of course there is.
00:20:12.500 Families can be deported together.
00:20:16.260 You know, it doesn't get much simpler than that.
00:20:19.480 You know, I like him so much, Mark, because when she asked him the question about the $88 billion,
00:20:25.500 he says, it's not my wheelhouse.
00:20:27.440 I don't know what the hell it's going to cost.
00:20:28.800 Instead of sitting there saying, well, he's as honest as they come and bluntly honest.
00:20:33.220 But what other way do you do it, Mark?
00:20:35.460 What other way do you deport these folks without, you know, leaving their kids behind?
00:20:41.720 Well, he said it right.
00:20:42.600 Look, I mean, unfortunately, families are going to have to get deported.
00:20:45.260 The real travesty was letting the people in and giving them false hope.
00:20:50.640 That was the real travesty and not holding them accountable to the laws.
00:20:54.860 And so really the people that let them in, which is the Biden-Harris administration for
00:20:59.300 the most part, they are to blame because they've created a problem.
00:21:02.900 And now we're going to have to go and say to these families, hey, look, you came into
00:21:07.100 this country illegally or the judges ruled that your asylum claim is not legit.
00:21:11.140 Tom broke it down really simple in a couple of interviews I've heard since he's been
00:21:16.900 named this.
00:21:18.360 He said, look, first you go after the criminals.
00:21:20.700 And I had a friend tell me today, he goes, well, how do you know where the criminals are?
00:21:24.400 If you go work with local law enforcement, we can all sit and tell you exactly where the
00:21:28.500 criminals are and where to find them.
00:21:30.480 A lot of them are sitting in jails right now.
00:21:32.540 And the ones that aren't, they know where there are because when they were let out on bail
00:21:36.060 or bond, they have to give an address for where they're at.
00:21:38.940 So we have a pretty good idea.
00:21:39.900 So you start there.
00:21:41.140 Then you go on to these people that maybe the judge ruled against them and said, you
00:21:45.080 don't have a legitimate asylum claim, but they still haven't left the country.
00:21:48.620 We've got to go after them.
00:21:49.940 And we just start, you know, moving through it.
00:21:52.660 And really what this is about is you start to send us, you set a certain narrative that
00:21:57.880 says we cannot tolerate people that broke the law in this country.
00:22:02.000 If you want to be in this country, you got to do it the legal way.
00:22:04.820 And I think a lot of people are going to self-deport.
00:22:06.680 They're going to go back home on their own because this is going to, this is going to
00:22:10.740 tighten up on them.
00:22:12.020 And it should, I've lived in other countries.
00:22:14.700 If you were there illegally, trust me, you'd be a lot more nervous than they are here. 0.98
00:22:18.960 They should be nervous.
00:22:20.140 They came into this country illegally or they haven't adhered to the judge's orders on removal 1.00
00:22:25.180 or there's might be a myriad of different things.
00:22:27.620 Unfortunately, the people that caused this are not going to fix it.
00:22:32.220 We're now going to have to fix it.
00:22:34.180 And they're going to be mad at the people who fix it, but it has to be done.
00:22:37.180 Yeah.
00:22:37.360 And, you know, you're getting these blue city mayors where you got that, and governor as
00:22:40.880 well.
00:22:41.080 You got that tough guy up in Illinois.
00:22:43.740 What the hell is his name?
00:22:44.600 The big guy who looks like George Connolly.
00:22:46.140 He certainly isn't tough.
00:22:47.400 I think he's pretty soft.
00:22:48.600 I mean, he's a wealthy dude.
00:22:50.700 I wouldn't use the term tough for him.
00:22:52.740 I should say want to be tough guy who are saying you won't come to this city, you won't
00:22:57.980 come to the state and touch anybody.
00:22:59.280 But then you've got guys like Mayor Eric Adams, who is in a little bit of trouble right now.
00:23:03.280 It seems like he's a little bit more willing to work with Donald Trump probably than ever
00:23:06.440 before, maybe looking for a partner of some sort.
00:23:09.620 He's against mass deportations, but says he's open with President Trump to go ahead and fixing
00:23:14.540 this immigration system that he was left with under Bill de Blasio.
00:23:18.440 They estimate about a half a million illegals are in New York.
00:23:20.940 I think that number is probably underestimated probably like two or three times because
00:23:27.700 of what's really going on there.
00:23:29.120 But Tom Holman saying, too, we're going to go do workplace deportations.
00:23:34.120 We're going to show up to your job.
00:23:35.520 They know where they are, Tom.
00:23:37.660 Mark, they know where these people are.
00:23:39.060 They know where they live.
00:23:39.840 They know where they sleep.
00:23:40.680 They know where they work illegally.
00:23:43.420 They can go out there and get them.
00:23:44.840 And at the end of the day, it is sad, Mark, because there are people who are good people
00:23:47.760 who came here seeking a better life.
00:23:49.540 But at the end of the day, you're a criminal.
00:23:52.160 According to the law, Mark, you're a criminal, whether you're a grandmother, whether you're
00:23:55.960 a gang member, you're criminals.
00:23:57.460 You came into this country illegally. 1.00
00:23:58.980 You're not supposed to be here.
00:24:00.140 You didn't follow the proper protocol.
00:24:01.860 You've got to go.
00:24:02.760 It doesn't get much simpler than that.
00:24:04.780 What do you think we're going to see, for instance, in a state like yours where you have
00:24:08.400 a Marxist dem governor, but you've got great Republican sheriffs like you who are going
00:24:12.800 to listen to the federal government and deport these folks? 0.88
00:24:16.140 Well, you know, look, I appreciate the 10th Amendment and the state's rights.
00:24:18.800 I really do.
00:24:19.780 Yeah.
00:24:20.160 However, they've consistently and they've consistently said, no, no, this is a federal
00:24:25.960 problem.
00:24:26.480 OK, well, now the federal government's going to come in and do their job.
00:24:29.460 It's tough for the governors to now say, well, we're not going to let you pick your poison.
00:24:33.640 You know, I think that Tom Homan also mentioning those workplace things.
00:24:38.660 I don't think that's high on the list.
00:24:40.640 However, Tom brought up a really good point.
00:24:42.720 He says all of this human trafficking and sex trafficking that you hear about, a lot
00:24:48.180 of that work trafficking, that hard labor is at the workplaces.
00:24:52.740 And basically, if you say we're not going to we shouldn't go after the workplaces, you're
00:24:56.900 basically allowing for the continuance of this trafficking for hard labor, sex trafficking.
00:25:02.740 So I hope that people understand like this.
00:25:05.800 There are people involved with it on both.
00:25:08.540 You know, there's two sides to this.
00:25:10.160 We've got to save a lot of these people from from being trafficked in the hard labor.
00:25:15.300 Arizona is going to be a weird state because we just passed a measure that should go into
00:25:19.340 effect pretty quick.
00:25:20.120 I can only imagine that this administration would have challenged it.
00:25:24.100 But now with the new DOJ, I don't think that they're going to challenge it.
00:25:28.320 And it's the right.
00:25:29.040 The people that spoke, they said, look, we want a law that says if you come into this
00:25:34.020 country illegally in the state of Arizona, we want that to be a law here, too.
00:25:37.700 And we want that to be able to deport it. 0.99
00:25:40.000 We want to hold people accountable who sell fentanyl.
00:25:42.100 We want to hold people accountable who present false ID.
00:25:46.800 And that's what Proposition 314 was.
00:25:48.880 It passed with 62 percent of Arizonans.
00:25:51.640 So this is going to make our ability to help the federal government a lot easier.
00:25:56.280 Yeah.
00:25:56.520 You know, Mark, at the end of the day, it's it's the will of the people.
00:25:58.900 We're going to take that up on the other side of this.
00:26:00.320 We're taking one more quick break.
00:26:01.620 Talking with Sheriff Mark Lamb of Pinal County.
00:26:04.160 We're going to talk about the House's responsibility, the Senate's responsibility,
00:26:07.780 and how they're going to make sure this thing is secured.
00:26:10.800 Maybe the Supreme Court gets involved.
00:26:12.340 And that's the thing I'm most nervous about.
00:26:14.280 I'm going to take that up with Mark on the other side of this quick break.
00:26:16.340 We're coming right back with Mark Lamb.
00:26:18.080 Stay with us.
00:26:18.520 Folks, as a lot of you may know, Mike Lindell and MyPillow no longer have the support of
00:26:24.280 their box stores or shopping channels the way they used to.
00:26:27.020 They've been part of this cancel culture, so they want to pass savings directly on to you.
00:26:30.940 So they're bringing back the $25 extravaganza.
00:26:33.900 When Mike started MyPillow, it was just a one problem, one solution company.

00:26:42.320 some of you may not even know about.

00:27:27.080 We're back, folks.
00:27:28.040 Thanks for staying with us through that short break.
00:27:29.680 We're talking with Sheriff Mark Lamb of Pinal County, a great American, as I've said,
00:27:33.200 and I'm sure you've figured out by now.
00:27:34.980 Mark, the people have spoken with this election, this referendum.
00:27:41.400 Trump won Star County, Texas, a border town, the most Hispanic county in America, at 97%
00:27:47.580 by 16 points.
00:27:50.160 It hasn't been won by a Republican since 19—I'm sorry, the last seen by a Republican since
00:27:55.320 1892.
00:27:56.420 I don't know what yells a bigger referendum on this country than seeing what we've seen
00:28:04.360 this election.
00:28:05.340 Now, you know, people are going to go back and forth about how we do these deportations,
00:28:09.340 who we deport.
00:28:10.120 Do we let the people who are law-abiding citizens, taxpayer citizens, stay here?
00:28:14.480 You know, there's going to be an argument on that front.
00:28:16.660 Do we let the people in the middle stay?
00:28:18.420 Do we let the anchor baby stay?
00:28:19.780 Do we—you know, the list goes on and on.
00:28:22.700 And as I said before I went to break, the issue I think we're going to see is from the 0.78
00:28:26.880 Supreme Court, like we've seen with DACA that's been stuck up in the courts for years and years
00:28:31.700 and years, and we can't get an official ruling on it to get these people out of here, that
00:28:36.480 DACA is unconstitutional.
00:28:38.140 It should have never been allowed in the first place, yet Barack Obama allowed it.
00:28:41.320 What do you see happening when it comes to things like the Supreme Court stepping in?
00:28:46.180 Well, look, first of all, when you talk about the deportations, one more thing about
00:28:49.400 that is this is a Congress and Senate issue.
00:28:53.620 You know, look, look, there's border security, there's immigration.
00:28:56.940 The two are oftentimes intertwined.
00:29:00.140 And Congress and Senate have continually failed to put forth some clear and common-sense
00:29:06.640 immigration.
00:29:07.600 There's no doubt that that needs to be addressed and adjusted.
00:29:10.780 I think most Americans would agree.
00:29:12.340 We should make it easier for businesses to bring employees over.
00:29:17.980 There should be some processes in place.
00:29:20.600 We've got it's jacked up and it's because it's in the hands of government and they can't
00:29:25.160 run a hot dog stand.
00:29:26.820 And Congress and Senate continue to use this as a political hot potato.
00:29:30.760 So they've got to come together.
00:29:32.340 And maybe this is the time these two years under President Trump put some bills together
00:29:36.420 that they can get through that will be common sense that Republicans and even a lot of Democrats
00:29:43.320 can live with and let's fix that piece of it, because that's going to help a lot of the
00:29:48.320 deportation piece of it as well is being able to get more common sense rules in place.
00:29:54.040 But in the end, look, this is something that we're we were talking on the break.
00:29:58.560 You know, the word the immigration is not in the Constitution.
00:30:03.380 You know, Article one, Section eight talks about Congress having the authority to establish
00:30:07.640 uniform rules of naturalization is naturalization the same as immigration.
00:30:13.420 I would contend it's not.
00:30:15.160 And so now immigration has kind of been given to Congress over the years through the Supreme
00:30:19.460 Court, through the other courts.
00:30:21.360 And so I think this is where the struggle has been on this whole Texas issue.
00:30:25.180 Now, Arizona is who really does have this ability and where does this fall?
00:30:31.280 And so it's going to be curious.
00:30:32.560 I'm anxious to see how this plays out.
00:30:34.280 But you're right.
00:30:34.880 But whether it's the courts or the politicians, they continue to hold these things up.
00:30:38.960 And we've got to get some we've got to get some results if we're going to fix these problems
00:30:42.780 long term.
00:30:43.840 Yeah, one of the big issues that it's always overstepped.
00:30:46.320 You hear very few people talking about it.
00:30:48.020 Derek Malta, a former D.A. guy.
00:30:50.840 Great guy.
00:30:51.760 Very good guy.
00:30:52.580 He has taken on the drug issue like nobody else blowing the whistle on everything, because
00:30:58.120 the truth of the matter is, Mark, we have hundreds of thousands of people a year.
00:31:02.160 Everyone wants to talk about gun violence.
00:31:03.600 Why don't they go look at the statistics of gun violence and who's dying for the most
00:31:07.500 from gun violence?
00:31:09.480 Who's who's who's doing the shootings and what's the situation?
00:31:13.000 And then it'll be a real eye opener to if you compare it to how many people are dying
00:31:17.040 from fentanyl overdoses.
00:31:19.400 People as kids who are dying thinking now they shouldn't be doing cocaine in the first
00:31:23.240 place, but thinking they're doing cocaine and it's laced with fentanyl.
00:31:26.660 Someone smoking marijuana that's laced with some sort of fentanyl that's come through the
00:31:30.320 southern border through China that we've allowed to happen.
00:31:34.440 You know, that's what the people I want to wake up to wake up and open their eyes.
00:31:38.320 Those people who have had loved ones die.
00:31:39.940 Those people have seen firsthand in their backyard these drugs pouring across their borders, these
00:31:45.160 thugs in these big blue cities who allow this stuff to go on under our eyes.
00:31:50.760 That's, Mark, another issue that doesn't get spoken about enough.
00:31:54.960 What do you think?
00:31:55.680 Well, I'm glad you brought up two things.
00:31:57.480 So, first of all, you're right.
00:31:58.820 The leading cause of death in America between the ages of 18 and 45 is fentanyl.
00:32:03.580 100,000 Americans a year.
00:32:05.340 How is this not like the the the top issue on the news every night?
00:32:09.860 They're killing way more Americans than any terrorist act has ever killed.
00:32:13.720 I would contend this is terrorism.
00:32:15.640 It's just quiet.
00:32:16.740 They haven't fired a single shot or set off a single bomb, yet they're killing 100,000 Americans 0.99
00:32:20.960 a year.
00:32:21.460 And we know where it comes from.
00:32:23.020 China puts it into the hands who they're not our friend, by the way, puts it in the 0.96
00:32:27.560 hands of the cartels.
00:32:28.720 The cartels then bring it into America.
00:32:30.860 You mentioned the gun laws, the statistics on gun violence.
00:32:34.440 You know, they they're really crafty on how they do these statistics.
00:32:38.140 They say that it's the leading cause of death for children are guns right now.
00:32:41.780 Well, let me break that down really quick.
00:32:44.020 First of all, it barely edges out accidents.
00:32:46.560 But do you know that they take out zero to one and they add in 18 and 19 year olds because
00:32:52.480 they can say this is the leading cause of death for teenagers and children.
00:32:56.440 If you take out 19 year olds, you take out 18 year olds and you add back in zero to one,
00:33:01.600 even if you don't add back into zero to one, the leading cause of death is traffic accidents
00:33:06.280 for children.
00:33:07.320 They had to add in adults to even make that statistic work.
00:33:10.620 And a lot of that statistic is suicides, unfortunately.
00:33:15.460 So they're using these statistics there.
00:33:18.220 They could even add in 18 and 19 rules.
00:33:20.740 They were barely able to get it to where it was more than accidents.
00:33:24.080 But the leading cause of death for children are young kids under 18 is going to be accidents.
00:33:30.660 Yeah.
00:33:30.960 And, you know, we've heard in the in the first Trump administration, I forgot who it was.
00:33:34.960 One of his Mark Esper, that idiot Mark Esper, came out and said, you can't believe what
00:33:39.760 Trump wanted to do.
00:33:41.080 Trump wanted to come out and blow up all the drugs and bombs into blow up the drug,
00:33:45.080 the drug facilities because they know where they are, obviously, through, you know, global
00:33:49.080 weather footprints.
00:33:50.680 They can see where, you know, the the heats are emitting through thermal photography.
00:33:56.060 They can see where they're cooking the drugs and doing all that stuff.
00:33:58.780 So the Trump administration reportedly now, this is unconfirmed, but this is what Mark Esper
00:34:03.080 was reporting.
00:34:04.220 I hope it was true because it's the most brilliant idea.
00:34:06.380 So Trump wanted to go ahead and send bombs in there and blow up and annihilate.
00:34:09.940 These drug making facilities and had Trump, you know, came out and said, you know, whatever
00:34:15.040 he said.
00:34:15.520 But it's absolutely, I think, totally brilliant because how you said it perfectly.
00:34:19.720 These people are terrorists.
00:34:21.200 Mark, are we just going to turn a blind eye to the fact that they're killing 100000
00:34:25.260 Americans?
00:34:26.320 More than that.
00:34:26.760 If we had a military, if we had terrorists.
00:34:29.240 Look, we went to war for 20 years and I don't want to take away from anything from 9-11.
00:34:33.720 We lost what?
00:34:34.580 Thirty six hundred Americans, more or less.
00:34:36.800 We went to war for 20 years.
00:34:38.340 We're losing 100000 Americans a year right now and the cartels are doing it.
00:34:42.980 And so is China. 0.89
00:34:44.160 And yet we don't go after them.
00:34:45.480 I just think it's appalling that we make no effort to hold the people accountable that
00:34:49.160 are killing Americans. 0.78
00:34:50.740 And so I do like that he's saying this.
00:34:52.940 Now, I get that people are misconstruing what he's saying.
00:34:55.740 You need to work with Mexico. 1.00
00:34:57.300 Mexico wants a willing partner.
00:34:59.240 But what they had for the last four years was some weak, a weak administration that didn't
00:35:05.460 have the resolve to go after these cartels.
00:35:08.720 And so why is is the Mexico going to lock horns alone with the cartels if if America is unwilling
00:35:15.800 and unwilling partner?
00:35:16.980 I think that they know that Trump is willing now.
00:35:19.980 And I think these two can come together and eliminate these cartels.
00:35:24.120 Yeah.
00:35:24.340 You know, Mark, I don't advocate for wars.
00:35:25.900 I hate wars.
00:35:26.480 I think they're absolutely unnecessary in most cases.
00:35:29.460 The ones at least we've been in in the last 25 or so years.
00:35:32.700 But if we were to go to war with somebody, I would not be unhappy if it was Mexico, because 1.00
00:35:38.100 like you said, perfectly, more people have died from drug overdoses than any of the wars
00:35:42.240 that we fought in over the last 25 years over overseas that were absolutely over nothing.
00:35:47.120 This is over something.
00:35:48.460 And if the Mexican government, from the most part, it seems they're complicit in it because
00:35:53.080 the politicians are all corrupt as hell.
00:35:55.100 They know what's going on.
00:35:56.620 They're either too scared because they know these cartels will go ahead and kill their families
00:36:00.120 and such, or they're getting kickbacks on it.
00:36:03.420 One way or another, that's not a way to live, Mark.
00:36:06.840 You know, they're harboring these terrorists, allowing them to come through their country, 0.99
00:36:11.100 allowing drugs to be shipped into their country and then sent on to America.
00:36:14.140 That's an act of terrorism.
00:36:15.840 So if we were to go in and do something with Mexico, I wouldn't be completely opposed to it. 0.97
00:36:21.040 You know, something I've seen, Mark, and I'm sure you've seen it.
00:36:23.300 By the way, we're allowing this, too, by the way.
00:36:25.760 Oh, absolutely.
00:36:27.200 Our own politicians are allowing it.
00:36:29.280 So I don't know that this is, you know, Mexico would be a willing partner.
00:36:33.520 They're a great partner for trade.
00:36:35.140 They're great at everything.
00:36:36.360 We have a common problem, and the common problem is cartels.
00:36:40.860 Yeah, absolutely.
00:36:41.860 But it's going to take somebody to go ahead and do something about it.
00:36:45.320 And it seems like nobody really has the willpower to go about it.
00:36:49.260 You're in Arizona, Mark.
00:36:50.540 Over the last, I've traveled now over the last 10 years or so, all over the place,
00:36:54.100 all over the world, all over America.
00:36:55.440 And some of my domestic traveling I've done, I've been to Nashville in the last few months.
00:36:59.720 I've been to Vegas in the last few months.
00:37:01.540 I've been to Texas in the last few months.
00:37:03.000 And I spent a little bit of time in Atlantic City when I have some time.
00:37:06.560 And it's not just people, homeless people on the street anymore, Mark, that you used to see just sitting down asking for money.
00:37:13.640 The trend I've seen now going is these people are on some sort of new drug where they look like they're absolutely dead.
00:37:21.840 I don't know what the drug is, but it's something now that it must be a new phenomenon because these people, Mark,
00:37:27.180 they'll be like stead frozen on the side of the road, just not there but there.
00:37:32.600 It makes absolutely no sense to me.
00:37:34.340 And I think we're going to continue to see it get worse.
00:37:36.600 This is something I've seen now over the last, I want to say, three or four years.
00:37:39.580 So it's not just people smoking marijuana anymore.
00:37:42.700 It's not just people doing heroin anymore.
00:37:44.740 There's something that's being added into the society that's absolutely zombifying people.
00:37:49.800 Do you see that down in Arizona?
00:37:51.440 Have you seen anything in Pinal County that over the last few years has changed?
00:37:56.980 Well, we don't see it as much in Pinal County, but we certainly see it in the bigger cities.
00:38:00.520 Phoenix got a little bit of it.
00:38:01.920 But I went to Philadelphia.
00:38:03.040 I went to Kensington.
00:38:04.700 You see it.
00:38:05.300 I don't know if it's the xylazine that they put into the fentanyl or the kratom.
00:38:10.020 But there's a couple of different things that are causing that.
00:38:13.240 They call it the fentanyl fold where they're folded over and sleeping.
00:38:18.100 But somehow they don't fall over.
00:38:20.560 I hate to see my fellow Americans and fellow human beings. 1.00
00:38:24.420 It breaks my heart to see people going through this.
00:38:28.860 And they've completely lost themselves.
00:38:30.620 They're just basically a shell of what they used to be.
00:38:33.280 And having had a son who had gone through and struggled with drug addiction, I'll tell you, that's why I fight so hard against drugs.
00:38:42.560 I don't want other families to have to go through it.
00:38:44.880 And we can do something about it.
00:38:47.180 And I just think that we owe it to the American people to do something about it.
00:38:51.320 That's why me and my deputies fight it hard every day to stop the drugs from coming in, stop the humans from being smuggled.
00:38:57.200 And we expect the federal government to do the same.
00:38:59.420 And I'm grateful for this administration, Tom Holman, a lot of other people that I have no doubt are going to come in and get this ship back on the right course.
00:39:06.940 And we're going to get this country fixed.
00:39:09.740 Yeah, and I think the death penalty is something that needs to be reenacted for these drug dealers, Mark.
00:39:14.440 We've got to send a message to these people.
00:39:17.120 For instance, Mark, here in New York, someone gets caught selling cocaine.
00:39:21.120 They're arrested and they're let out within just hours.
00:39:24.200 I have a lot of friends who are New York Police Department officers.
00:39:26.900 And they say to me, we don't even care about arresting people anymore because they're right back out on the street in a few hours.
00:39:32.300 They see a judge.
00:39:33.240 They're back out with no bail.
00:39:34.960 They've got to do something.
00:39:36.240 And I think the death penalty is something that I think President Trump needs to look at strongly for these people who are doing this to our kids.
00:39:42.480 They're doing it to these families.
00:39:44.100 They're destroying families.
00:39:46.220 They're ripping them apart with these drugs that they're selling to these people.
00:39:49.780 And I think something needs to be done.
00:39:51.540 The death penalty is one that I've rarely advocated for, but I think in this situation needs to be looked at.
00:39:57.800 I want to wrap up with here, and we appreciate you joining us today, Mark.
00:40:01.160 Later on today, the Senate is meeting, and they're going to nominate a new majority leader.
00:40:07.260 We've got two rhinos, John Cornyn, John Thune, and we've got Rick Scott. 0.91
00:40:12.280 Of course, it's a secret ballot.
00:40:13.900 Someone who ran for Senate, Mark.
00:40:16.980 What's your take on this, how it should go?
00:40:19.660 Should it be a secret ballot, or should we let the American people see what our senators are up to? 0.90
00:40:24.400 No, I don't think it should be a secret ballot.
00:40:27.680 I think we elected those folks to go back there, and we should be aware of the process that's going on.
00:40:34.720 I don't really know all three of them very well.
00:40:37.480 I don't really even know John Thune.
00:40:39.480 I know there's been some questionable Second Amendment stuff with a couple of those guys.
00:40:44.900 Look, in the end, if I was picking today, I'd pick Rick Scott.
00:40:48.340 Look, I think he's going to be more in line with where we need to go with the Trump administration,
00:40:52.580 with where the country needs to go.
00:40:54.780 I don't want to go backwards towards that other stuff.
00:40:57.380 I don't want to fight with ourselves like we did the first round where we had guys like Paul Ryan in there
00:41:03.380 that were holding everything up.
00:41:04.840 We just can't afford that.
00:41:06.120 We've got to get on board, all of us together, all Republicans, get on board.
00:41:11.520 It may be outside the comfort zone for some of the Republicans, but we've got to get the country fixed,
00:41:17.180 and then we can start getting back to figuring out where you fall and where we fall.
00:41:22.260 But in the end, we've got to hold together and get this country back, and we owe it to the American people.
00:41:27.880 And that starts with our leadership at the top coming together.
00:41:30.900 And I think that Rick Scott would be a great choice.
00:41:34.560 Yeah, and I think we're going to see things differently around this time around, Mark.
00:41:38.520 Apparently, the Republicans in Congress, in the House, are planning to nominate a conservative option to Mike Johnson.
00:41:44.840 So we'll see what happens with that, too.
00:41:46.180 But I think people have had enough.
00:41:48.220 And with this razor-thin majority that the Republicans are going to have in the House, like they had with Kevin McCarthy,
00:41:53.940 I think they do hold his feet to the fire to get Trump's agenda done.
00:41:58.620 You mentioned Paul Ryan.
00:42:00.060 Paul Ryan's first act when he set the agenda for President Trump was to go after health care.
00:42:04.360 It took, Mark, it took a year and a half before they figured out health care.
00:42:08.300 They lost it anyway.
00:42:09.400 They couldn't get rid of Obamacare, and by the time that wrapped up, we had a Democrat Congress where President Trump was stifled to do anything.
00:42:17.500 So it's unbelievable.
00:42:19.540 Sheriff Mark Lamb, where can people follow you and see all that you're up to these days,
00:42:23.700 and what's next for you when your term as sheriff expires?

00:42:45.460 I like to have fun doing what we do.
00:42:47.080 There you go.
00:42:48.300 Lou's dream job, by the way, was to be sheriff of Sussex, New Jersey, where he lived.
00:42:52.100 Unfortunately, he didn't get to live to do that.
00:42:54.700 But his dream job was to always be a sheriff and wear a cowboy hat like that and have a revolver to his side.
00:43:00.040 God bless him, he was a good man.
00:43:02.660 Absolutely.
