Hello, everybody, and welcome to The Great America Show.
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
00:00:38.400
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
00:00:53.500
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
00:01:10.340
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
00:01:19.220
Congresswoman from New York, Elise Stefanik, tapped to run the UN ambassadorship program
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
00:02:04.920
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
00:02:22.240
And on the ballot is two rhinos and then someone who's sort of middle of the road.
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
00:02:39.460
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
00:02:52.620
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
00:03:37.580
So we won't find out, um, who votes and how they vote, but I think this is to send a message.
00:03:45.560
We'll probably have a rhino Mike Johnson as the speaker of the house, but with the slim
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
00:04:31.680
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
00:04:55.880
have caused crime and brought gangs here and, and brought drugs here.
00:05:02.140
So our guest today is someone who knows a little bit about the border.
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
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.
00:05:54.300
The, the, the historic unprecedented when we saw Mark, none of us expected him to win the
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
00:06:28.960
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.
00:06:53.240
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,
00:07:05.920
Um, and obviously we can't count votes very well and took us several days, but in the
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.
00:07:27.240
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
00:07:44.960
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,
00:07:53.740
Uh, but it's just unbelievable that we cannot get these elections, Mark counted on election
00:07:59.480
It's such a simple, uh, procedure, one ballot in one vote in boom.
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,
00:08:26.360
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
00:08:44.300
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.
00:08:55.420
If the, if the Latin men don't vote for it, they're misogynists.
00:08:59.100
If you'd, if anybody else, they're racist or they've abandoned their race or whatever,
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
00:09:38.000
There wasn't a single County in this country where Kamala did better than Joe Biden did four
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
00:09:58.140
Um, but he called his cronies and his minions in the Senate and the house and said, you
00:10:04.760
We see her at that speaking out of many campaign events and then on the camp on the
00:10:09.620
But the truth of the matter is Marcus, they admitted the silent part out loud is that we can
00:10:17.300
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.
00:10:57.380
HR2 was actually a pretty decent bill that came out of the House, which the Senate just
00:11:03.220
And they never really brought it to the forefront.
00:11:08.100
And look, they had no intention of passing the border bill that Kamala Harris was talking
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.
00:11:27.700
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
00:11:45.660
They didn't do enough to just crush that bill because they didn't want to hurt each other's
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.
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.
00:12:57.560
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.
00:13:11.700
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.
00:13:21.740
Republicans failed on destroying this bill and that narrative.
00:13:27.440
And you mentioned the Senate, and that's going to be a big fight now coming up later today.
00:13:36.200
And I mean, it's between two rhinos and someone who's sort of middle of the road,
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.
00:13:56.720
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.
00:14:04.600
Tom Holman, who I think is one of the greatest guys you could have picked to be border czar,
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
00:14:21.780
They've been part of this cancel culture, so they want to pass savings directly on to you.
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
00:14:39.220
To get the word out, they're having a $25 extravaganza.
00:14:54.620
This amazing offer won't last long, so order now.
00:15:05.540
Use promo code John, J-O-H-N, or call 800-969-3077.
00:15:12.460
And be sure to use promo code John, that's J-O-H-N, for all those amazing savings on all MyPillow products.
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.
00:16:03.680
You have failed to work with this president to close the three loopholes.
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.
00:16:23.540
I've asked you politely to let me go beyond my time and you let other people go beyond their time,
00:16:30.940
Mr. Holman, we have approved an agreement between the Republicans
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.
00:16:51.040
I respect the chair's authority, but the chair...
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.
00:17:16.040
But how do you feel now that that's going to be the man leading our border fight?
00:17:26.040
You see this bright light coming as it gets closer.
00:17:30.020
And that's what he's a freight train coming at you.
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
00:17:59.940
True leadership is we're going to do what's right.
00:18:11.040
These folks forget that they work for us, we the people.
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
00:18:31.280
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.
00:18:40.600
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.
00:18:51.480
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
00:19:03.160
And Lou was one of the few people, Mark, who would go on television for years.
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.
00:19:23.060
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.
00:19:30.100
But what comes with Tom now is going to be these mass deportations that President Trump
00:19:35.600
A lot of people didn't think he was going to come through on them.
00:19:40.900
This is Tom Holman on 60 Minutes just a few weeks ago before he got picked for the job
00:19:47.440
We have seen one estimate that says it would cost $88 billion to deport a million people
00:20:04.600
Is there a way to carry out mass deportation without separating families?
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,
00:20:28.800
Instead of sitting there saying, well, he's as honest as they come and bluntly honest.
00:20:35.460
What other way do you deport these folks without, you know, leaving their kids behind?
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
00:21:18.360
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
00:21:32.540
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.
00:21:41.140
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.
00:21:49.940
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
00:22:14.700
If you were there illegally, trust me, you'd be a lot more nervous than they are here.
00:22:20.140
They came into this country illegally or they haven't adhered to the judge's orders on removal
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.
00:22:34.180
And they're going to be mad at the people who fix it, but it has to be done.
00:22:37.360
And, you know, you're getting these blue city mayors where you got that, and governor as
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
00:22:59.280
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
00:23:29.120
But Tom Holman saying, too, we're going to go do workplace deportations.
00:23:44.840
And at the end of the day, it is sad, Mark, because there are people who are good people
00:23:52.160
According to the law, Mark, you're a criminal, whether you're a grandmother, whether you're
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?
00:24:16.140
Well, you know, look, I appreciate the 10th Amendment and the state's rights.
00:24:20.160
However, they've consistently and they've consistently said, no, no, this is a federal
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.
00:24:42.720
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.
00:25:10.160
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
00:25:20.120
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.
00:25:29.040
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.
00:25:40.000
We want to hold people accountable who sell fentanyl.
00:25:42.100
We want to hold people accountable who present false ID.
00:25:51.640
So this is going to make our ability to help the federal government a lot easier.
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.
00:26:01.620
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.
00:26:14.280
I'm going to take that up with Mark on the other side of this quick break.
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.
00:26:33.900
When Mike started MyPillow, it was just a one problem, one solution company.
00:26:37.760
Well, since then, with the help of his dedicated employees, they now have hundreds of products
00:26:44.020
To get the word out, they're having a $25 extravaganza.
00:26:59.880
This amazing offer won't last long, so order now.
00:27:10.800
Use promo code John, J-O-H-N, or call 800-969-3077.
00:27:17.720
And be sure to use promo code John, that's J-O-H-N, for all those amazing savings on all
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,
00:27:34.980
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%
00:27:50.160
It hasn't been won by a Republican since 19—I'm sorry, the last seen by a Republican since
00:27:56.420
I don't know what yells a bigger referendum on this country than seeing what we've seen
00:28:05.340
Now, you know, people are going to go back and forth about how we do these deportations,
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.
00:28:22.700
And as I said before I went to break, the issue I think we're going to see is from the
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
00:28:38.140
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
00:28:53.620
You know, look, look, there's border security, there's immigration.
00:29:00.140
And Congress and Senate have continually failed to put forth some clear and common-sense
00:29:07.600
There's no doubt that that needs to be addressed and adjusted.
00:29:12.340
We should make it easier for businesses to bring employees over.
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
00:29:26.820
And Congress and Senate continue to use this as a political hot potato.
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.
00:30:15.160
And so now immigration has kind of been given to Congress over the years through the Supreme
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?
00:30:34.880
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
00:30:43.840
Yeah, one of the big issues that it's always overstepped.
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.
00:31:03.600
Why don't they go look at the statistics of gun violence and who's dying for the most
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
00:31:19.400
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.
00:31:39.940
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.
00:31:58.820
The leading cause of death in America between the ages of 18 and 45 is fentanyl.
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.
00:32:16.740
They haven't fired a single shot or set off a single bomb, yet they're killing 100,000 Americans
00:32:23.020
China puts it into the hands who they're not our friend, by the way, puts it in the
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.
00:32:46.560
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
00:33:07.320
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.
00:33:20.740
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.
00:33:30.960
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
00:33:41.080
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
00:33:50.680
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
00:34:04.220
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
00:34:15.520
But it's absolutely, I think, totally brilliant because how you said it perfectly.
00:34:21.200
Mark, are we just going to turn a blind eye to the fact that they're killing 100000
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.
00:34:38.340
We're losing 100000 Americans a year right now and the cartels are doing it.
00:34:45.480
I just think it's appalling that we make no effort to hold the people accountable that
00:34:52.940
Now, I get that people are misconstruing what he's saying.
00:34:59.240
But what they had for the last four years was some weak, a weak administration that didn't
00:35:08.720
And so why is is the Mexico going to lock horns alone with the cartels if if America is unwilling
00:35:16.980
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.
00:35:26.480
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
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.
00:35:48.460
And if the Mexican government, from the most part, it seems they're complicit in it because
00:35:56.620
They're either too scared because they know these cartels will go ahead and kill their families
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,
00:36:11.100
allowing drugs to be shipped into their country and then sent on to America.
00:36:15.840
So if we were to go in and do something with Mexico, I wouldn't be completely opposed to it.
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.
00:36:29.280
So I don't know that this is, you know, Mexico would be a willing partner.
00:36:36.360
We have a common problem, and the common problem is cartels.
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.
00:36:50.540
Over the last, I've traveled now over the last 10 years or so, all over the place,
00:36:55.440
And some of my domestic traveling I've done, I've been to Nashville 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.
00:37:34.340
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.
00:37:44.740
There's something that's being added into the society that's absolutely zombifying people.
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.
00:38:05.300
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.
00:38:20.560
I hate to see my fellow Americans and fellow human beings.
00:38:24.420
It breaks my heart to see people going through this.
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.
00:38:47.180
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.
00:39:09.740
Yeah, and I think the death penalty is something that needs to be reenacted for these drug dealers, Mark.
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.
00:39:36.240
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.
00:39:46.220
They're ripping them apart with these drugs that they're selling to these people.
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.
00:40:19.660
Should it be a secret ballot, or should we let the American people see what our senators are up to?
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.
00:40:39.480
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,
00:40:54.780
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
00:41:06.120
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.
00:41:48.220
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.
00:42:00.060
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.
00:42:09.400
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.
00:42:19.540
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?

Lou's dream job, by the way, was to be sheriff of Sussex, New Jersey, where he lived.
00:42:52.100

00:42:54.700
