00:01:20.660 Great America Sunday Show. Thanks for being with us. Marxist Dem Judge Arthur Engeron of New York

00:01:26.960 fining the Trump Organization almost $350 million and a three-year ban on the Trump Organization doing

00:01:34.780 real estate business in New York. Engeron held a no-jury trial. He was judge, juror and executioner

00:01:42.800 and he found the Trump Organization guilty before even the proceedings began. Engeron is an ignorant 1.00

00:01:49.920 Marxist fool. Somewhat redundant, but you take my point. A new report from the New York Times, 1.00

00:01:56.640 well, Biden attorneys tried to influence the Department of Justice to omit language critical

00:02:01.440 of Biden's mental state and memory loss. Biden's attorneys, Ed Siskel and Bob Bauer,

00:02:08.420 wrote to Attorney General Merrick Garland complaining that details in the report about

00:02:13.320 the president's recollections during an interview openly, obviously and blatantly violated department

00:02:20.260 policy and practice. Their complaint to no avail unless, of course, Robert Herr's report was even

00:02:26.740 more damning before the Biden attorney's objections. Our first guest is Bernie Kerrick. He's the former

00:02:33.800 commissioner of the New York Police Department and Bernie, as always, thanks for being with us.

00:02:38.240 Glad you could make it. I want to start with what I thought was the most compelling piece of news

00:02:42.500 today to select from, and that was the Dr. Kevin O'Connor for Joe Biden deciding he would not advise

00:02:49.780 Biden to take a neurological exam or a cognitive test. What do you make of it?

00:02:55.400 Well, listen, I don't think the doctor is any different from the rest of the Democratic Party

00:02:59.480 that's been ignoring this continual decline. You know, think about it, Lou, for a second,

00:03:07.580 dating back to 20, right? Nobody thought that this guy could actually be the president because of his

00:03:15.380 cognitive decline. At that point, this is in 20. He has continually declined ever since to the point

00:03:23.160 that now he doesn't know the difference between Mexico and Egypt. He doesn't know when his son

00:03:28.700 passed away. He doesn't know where he is. He doesn't know how to get off of a stage. He, you know,

00:03:34.860 and it's continually getting worse. Now he's getting, he's like the angry old man that has,

00:03:40.820 you know, that has problems and it's only getting worse for his doctor to say that. I don't think

00:03:48.640 it's necessary, or I don't think he should, or I can't recommend that he does is completely insane.

00:03:55.460 It makes you think that perhaps the doctor should be taking some tests of some sort,

00:04:00.080 but it's, as you say, it comports to the rest of the Biden regime. They have, it is a din

00:04:08.800 of liars and thieves. It is extraordinary. They put forward people like Ian Samms as the 1.00

00:04:17.060 spokesperson for the White House Council. He's not a liar. He has a message and that's it.

00:04:23.540 Hey, Lou, you know something? Think back to even 10, even 10 years ago, but more so 20,

00:04:31.700 30 years ago, if we had this circumstance there, I would say 80% of the Democrats in the Democratic

00:04:40.340 Party would stand up and say, Hey, enough is enough. It's wrong. There's something wrong.

00:04:46.860 He's got to go. They would work on a, on a, a method to get him out of there.

00:04:53.080 The Democrats don't have the courage among them, among all of them. Nobody has the courage to stand

00:04:59.620 up and call it what it is. Yeah. You, you put it on courage. And I think you're right about that,

00:05:04.560 but there's also integrity and they're totally lacking in honesty, by integrity. There is no

00:05:13.220 such thing right now in the, the Democrat body politic, or as we call them here now, the Marxist

00:05:20.840 Dems, because they are led by Marxist Dems. There is an authoritarian, I think a totalitarian stream

00:05:28.960 running through this party burning. It is, it does, it doesn't suffer dissent. It doesn't suffer

00:05:35.820 disloyalty of any kind, or it's just a different party. And it is not a traditional political party

00:05:44.020 as it once was. This is a party of, frankly, to me, Marxists who mean to subvert this government

00:05:51.380 and this nation and destroy it as a constitutional Republican. And they are making immense progress,

00:05:59.540 don't you think? I think they are. I think they are because the American people don't stand up the

00:06:05.480 way they should. The, we have Republicans. I'm sad to say that lack courage, lack integrity,

00:06:14.280 lack of a bunch of other stuff, um, that should be standing up, um, you know, in the middle of this

00:06:20.480 and, and screaming at the top of their lungs. Yet they're jumping on the bandwagon with, you know,

00:06:26.660 with McConnell, with Romney, with guys like this, you know, I, you can't tell who the enemy is these

00:06:34.160 days because they're like chameleons within the government. Yeah, it's true. Uh, you do have the

00:06:41.340 standard bears for the, for the Marxist Dems. They're easy to spot. Uh, the, the rhinos and

00:06:48.620 the Republican party are easy to spot when you get a vote. But other than that, they try to act

00:06:53.720 like why they could even get along with even Donald Trump for crying out loud. That's how

00:06:58.000 noble and forgiving they are. Uh, these elites are something else that, that, uh, inhabit the,

00:07:05.360 this, the open sewer that is our nation's capital. It's appalling. And it's going to your point,

00:07:10.900 20 years ago, can you, um, as, and I've covered the, the border issue in this country,

00:07:16.760 the illegal immigration issue in this country for a very long time. But if you would have said 20

00:07:22.120 years ago that an administration upon taking office would strip, uh, all enforcement along

00:07:30.020 that 2000 mile border would invite in, in league with NGOs and various oligarchs, uh, 12 to 15 million,

00:07:40.760 there's the best estimates, uh, into this country. And we wouldn't even know where they are. And then,

00:07:46.620 and the American people wouldn't be in, in, in an uproar.

00:07:50.540 We don't, you know, honestly, Lou, uh, one, we don't know where they are. We don't know where

00:07:55.320 they're going. They're not monitored. You've gotten now right now at, at estimates from, uh, DHS and the

00:08:03.180 FBI, you probably have about 150, uh, thousand that have come in to our country from what I would call 0.63

00:08:13.220 target areas, right? Iraq, Syria, uh, Afghanistan, Yemen, uh, Somalia, uh, Kenya, well, all these

00:08:23.160 countries, we've had, we've had about 150,000 come in and disintegrate into communities like chameleons. 0.96

00:08:31.960 And these are people that want the demise of this country. What administration, what, what,

00:08:39.080 what U S Patriot would allow that? Not, not, not only allow it, but support it, but encourage it,

00:08:47.420 but pay for it, but, but, and would fund it through the government, through NGOs, through state and city

00:08:55.300 governments. This is the most absurd, especially somebody like me. That's that lived through nine

00:09:01.300 11 and saw the, the result of what happens when people come into this country, despising this

00:09:07.780 country. It's just beyond me why they're doing this. And they're coming in. They being primarily

00:09:15.960 military age males. They're coming in from China. They're coming in from Africa. They're coming in 0.98

00:09:22.160 from South America and no one, no one is vetting them in any fashion whatsoever. We don't know where

00:09:30.960 they are. They've been distributed across the country. Uh, and, and for, for me to sit here and

00:09:37.760 talk about this, it just infuriates me because of the reaction primarily of the American people right

00:09:43.900 now. And what I want to take up with you as we continue our conversation, after these quick

00:09:48.700 words, uh, Bernie, I want to talk about just exactly what have we become and what must we do

00:09:56.400 to preserve the Republic? Because we have only one election, I think in which to do it. We're

00:10:01.860 talking with Bernie Carrick. We'll be right back in just a moment. Stay with us. Folks, you know,

00:10:09.180 I beg everyone to get ready for the next crisis. And when it comes, our lives will likely change

00:10:14.720 overnight, whether it's natural disaster, war, or another disease. We have to be ready as we can be.

00:10:21.520 We saw what happened in 2020 when we found ourselves dependent on global supply chains. We're still

00:10:26.820 dependent on China and other countries for more than 90% of all our pharmaceuticals with clusters of

00:10:32.820 respiratory illnesses popping up around the world and here. We need to be prepared. And now

00:10:38.500 is the time to make certain you have what your family needs when the next crisis hits. Our good

00:10:44.200 friends, Dr. Peter McCullough and Dr. Drew Penske over at the Wellness Company have put together just

00:10:49.420 what you and I need with the Wellness Company's medical emergency kit. And now the Wellness Company's

00:11:43.580 We're back now with Bernie Carrick. And Bernie, again, it's a pleasure to have you on the show.

00:11:49.080 I don't know what we have become in this country. The Dems are without question Marxists. They are

00:11:58.060 led by Marxists. They have a puppet in the White House controlled by Marxist masters. Our education

00:12:06.280 system, our city government, our federal government, most of the state governments in some way are

00:12:13.420 influenced by Marxism. Diversity, equity, inclusion, all of these nonsensical just hash words that have

00:12:22.140 been brought up to basically attack the system, attack the American way of life and Americans.

00:12:29.920 We are at a point that I cannot even imagine we could sustain for another year without, frankly,

00:12:39.160 open conflict. You're thinking on where we are and what is happening in our major cities,

00:12:46.080 particularly in this nation. I think a couple of things, Lou. One, I don't think we can sustain

00:12:55.280 what's going on at this point beyond this next election. If Donald Trump does not become the

00:13:00.920 next president, and I say Donald Trump for this reason, there's a bunch of Republicans in the

00:13:07.140 Republican Party that want to be the president. Personally, I've known Trump since 1992. I worked

00:13:16.060 for him during and after the election in 2020. I have to tell you, I don't think there's anyone else

00:13:25.080 that can do what has to be done, given the times we live in. So it has to be Trump. If it's not,

00:13:33.400 I see a complete implosion of the government. And I think it will revert to possibly a civil war of

00:13:44.640 some type, because you have patriots all over all over this country. 80 million people voted for Trump.

00:13:52.600 And these people are sick and tired of their constitutional rights being just disintegrated

00:14:02.500 by the political left, by the Marxist. Their children are going to schools, learning things,

00:14:09.740 being forced to learn things in schools they don't want. I see an incredible, incredible problem.

00:14:18.440 And my fear, Lou, is, you know, within the government, right, within the military organizations,

00:14:27.180 even within the police departments, you know, you swear to an oath to you swear to an oath to on the

00:14:36.280 Constitution, right? You swear to uphold the Constitution, to uphold the laws of the land

00:14:41.560 powerful corruption. You can't argue in all lines, right? You've been reporting in comme humor.

00:14:47.600 And it's clear that there's a clear and present danger what these Marxists are doing to the country.

00:14:56.840 But you still have people in the military. That's agreeable. That's following the order.

00:15:04.460 that's doing what they're told, that's cowering to things that they know,

00:15:11.460 they know, and they're not supposed to obey an order that's not lawful.

00:15:15.980 But when the CBP is told, stand down, don't enforce the laws that are on the books.

00:15:24.760 You know, Joe Biden says that he needs the legislators to act, in other words,

00:15:31.940 in order to fix the borders. That's a complete lie. That's a lie.

00:15:37.340 All the laws that he needs to secure the borders of this country, they're on the books.

00:15:43.940 What he's done is he's basically told the CBP, Mayorkas, the Secretary of Homeland and others,

00:15:53.620 stand down and don't do your job. How does Mayorkas do that? 1.00

00:15:58.940 He's swearing to the Constitution. How does he do that?

00:16:03.500 How do the people under him do that? That's one of my biggest, you know,

00:16:07.480 I've had this conversation with General Flynn. That is one of my biggest, you know,

00:16:13.440 it infuriates me that these people don't stand up and say something.

00:16:18.920 Well, the military is, first of all, Bernie, it's not a military that certainly we would have understood

00:16:26.720 as young men. It is not a military that makes any sense at all. The leadership, the Pentagon is filled

00:16:35.920 with, I mean, frankly, most of them are panty-waist generals, okay? I'm going to just say it.

00:16:42.980 And they haven't got the brains to, you know, to blow their nose. It's just, it's outrageous to me, 0.99

00:16:52.320 the state we're in. You have a David Petraeus who's exalted around New York City and Manhattan.

00:16:57.440 He's trotted out by oligarchs as some big special individual. And, you know, I appreciate his service,

00:17:06.120 but he did the nation a great disservice when he came out with his big intellectual dissertation

00:17:13.280 called The Doctrine of the Long War. And all it brought was more long wars.

00:17:19.000 Yeah, exactly.

00:17:19.680 It is disgusting what we are watching. You know, generals running around in G-650s,

00:17:25.760 prancing around and like dilettantes as to the career warriors. I have no way to understand them.

00:17:33.640 And I have no way to understand why we have tolerated a military that is in combine with

00:17:41.280 the military industrial complex to the point that we've got hundreds of troops scattered across the

00:17:47.300 Middle East to work as, you know, support troops, battery experts for air defense. It's just disgusting 1.00

00:17:58.400 what we're doing. President Trump said it. Bring our troops home. Let's have a modest foreign policy.

00:18:05.600 And all of the effete globalists in New York about wet themselves, that anyone would talk reasonably

00:18:13.360 and rationally about both their resources, the immense wealth of this nation being squandered 0.99

00:18:20.240 by fakes and fools that populate the Pentagon, Wall Street, and certainly Congress and this White 0.99

00:18:30.020 House. It's just horrific. Your thoughts? 1.00

00:18:33.940 You know what? You summed it up, Flew. I can't agree with you more. And there's one thing you said.

00:18:41.880 Donald Trump said it. Donald Trump did it. Donald Trump did it. And that's what drives these people.

00:18:50.740 Completely insane. Because they know if Donald Trump gets back in the White House, what he says he will do,

00:18:57.700 he will do. If he says he's going to get something accomplished, he'll get it done.

00:19:03.620 And I have to tell you, looking back, you know, history will prove, has proven. Basically, he did what he said

00:19:12.380 he would do. And he had a bunch of snakes all around him. Oh, man. Saturated by snakes. And I'll tell you,

00:19:19.540 in the aftermath of the 2020 election, you know, I oversaw the investigative piece of the legal team.

00:19:27.000 I was stunned by the people around him, by some of the people around him. I was stunned

00:19:33.180 that there was so much disloyalty and, you know, indifference. And they didn't care. And they

00:19:40.820 could care less. I was shocked. I mean, I was shocked. And I think he's learned that through

00:19:48.180 this process. And I think things will change the next time around. He's going to do what he says he's

00:19:54.480 going to do. And that's what scares the hell out of all these people. Coming up next, the Mexican 1.00

00:19:59.340 drug cartels on the southern border and almost 400,000 Americans have been killed since Biden

00:20:05.900 took office. Three years and more than three times the number of Americans killed in all of

00:20:11.800 the Vietnam War. Former DEA official Derek Maltz joins us next. Stay with us.

00:20:17.520 Lou Dobbs here. I'm delighted to let you all know that the program Lou Dobbs tonight has returned to

00:20:25.200 the air. That's right. Lou Dobbs tonight is back. We're live each and every weeknight at 7 p.m.

00:20:33.420 Eastern and 6 p.m. Central on rumble.com slash Lou Dobbs. That's rumble.com slash Lou Dobbs.

00:20:42.440 I hope you'll be joining us for Lou Dobbs tonight as our fight to save this country has only begun.

00:20:55.460 Welcome back. Here now is Derek Maltz, former DEA agent and fighting the Biden regime at every turn,

00:21:02.480 trying to secure the border. Derek, great to see you. Great to have you on the show. We're even

00:21:06.740 watching illegals now crossing the northern border with Canada. And I believe most folks don't

00:21:12.200 realize our border with Canada is 5,500 miles. That's almost three times as far as our southern

00:21:20.540 border. If you threw the entire border patrol, though, at it, it wouldn't matter much, do you

00:21:25.120 think? I totally agree. I mean, we're being overrun with these reckless policies facilitating the ability

00:21:32.660 of cartels and Chinese to kill Americans at historic levels, Lou. 0.70

00:21:36.340 Yeah. It's just, I don't understand why the American people don't seem to be getting it.

00:21:44.140 I know their elected representatives don't, but we're watching the formation of fifth columns in 0.99

00:21:49.980 this country. There is the Chinese fifth column. There are the gang fifth columns. There are the 0.99

00:21:56.420 Marxist Dem fifth columns that are led, directed, and enabled by this Marxist regime of Joe Biden and the

00:22:05.840 deep state, of course, with a lot of help. I mean, we're looking at existential threats from so many

00:22:12.760 quarters, most especially, I guess we'd have to say, from the Chinese. Your thoughts?

00:22:19.340 Well, we have a massive surge, which is obvious. Unknowns coming into the country. The police

00:22:24.820 commissioner in New York City made a good statement this past week, calling it ghost criminals,

00:22:30.180 because now all these people that are here, we have no idea who they are. We don't even know where

00:22:35.420 they came from. You can't verify anything. They're coming from countries that can't stand America. But 1.00

00:22:41.600 in regards to the Chinese, Lou, we've talked about this. What I have an issue with is that Chris

00:22:46.640 Ray comes out and he talks about the biggest threat to national security to Chinese. But yet the 1.00

00:22:52.240 Chinese are coming at the largest numbers we've ever seen illegally into the country. And then they're 1.00

00:22:58.740 setting up these massive counterintelligence, marijuana grow operations all over this

00:23:04.180 country. What is wrong with that picture? How does anybody, whether you're Republican or Democrat,

00:23:10.540 accept that? Without security, without border security, you have no country.

00:23:15.880 You have no country. And we have a Congress right now that is led by a feat, uncertain. I mean,

00:23:23.840 they're playing Hamlet. They don't know whether they should be conservative today and woke one worlders

00:23:30.900 the next. We are in just, we're in a leadership crisis without question. And Biden now and Mayorkas

00:23:39.480 talking about ICE is going to release detainees because they didn't get what they wanted on their

00:23:45.260 border bill, which was wide open, full amnesty and devil take the hindmost. This is an administration

00:23:52.640 that is evil and corrupt to the bone. The fact that they would threaten Americans with this, 0.98

00:24:01.440 I would march them all out of there with, I'd have the U.S. Marshals in there to march them all out

00:24:06.540 right now. It's outrageous what they're doing. Yeah. I mean, look, just in my world from being a DEA

00:24:13.880 official for many years and looking at the problem, I mean, we have a legacy for this administration

00:24:19.980 with over 300,000 dead Americans. And many of these Americans, as you can see behind me,

00:24:25.280 are very young and many of them are not even drug users. Just look recently, we had four dead

00:24:30.560 in a home in Lake Tahoe. All right. We had four Americans poisoned in University of Dayton early 0.61

00:24:36.780 February. The Kansas City chief fans frozen in their backyard. But now we find fentanyl and cocaine in

00:24:44.140 their system. So the country is being saturated with these poisonous substances. China is making 1.00

00:24:50.720 even more potent substances now, like the isonitazines, netazines, metanitazines. They're

00:24:56.920 coming into the country, new types of bath salts, xylazine, which is rotten people down to the bone on

00:25:03.700 the streets of this country. But yet the American public is ignoring it. That's the thing I don't

00:25:09.100 understand, though. I can't understand it. Well, you know, I will. I can't either. I wish I could

00:25:14.600 be the guy to say here it is. The only thing I can discern here is that we have so many people in

00:25:21.360 this country who hate it now. These are Marxist Dems. These are the deep staters who who together

00:25:28.900 control the entire federal government. They control the national media. They can they control the

00:25:35.260 Democratic Party, education, you name it. They're in control. And while while the rest of America is

00:25:43.420 sitting here realizing that, yeah, we've the numbers are approaching 400000 dead just since Biden took

00:25:49.760 office. That's collateral damage in the war on drugs. We're we're fools and we cannot seem to bring

00:25:57.580 together a Republican Party that understands its mission has to be secure that border and deport 1.00

00:26:04.960 those illegal immigrants, particularly the most dangerous and vile among them. And we're done as a 1.00

00:26:12.240 nation. People don't realize all of these millions of people. The estimate is now 14 million. The best

00:26:18.840 estimate and from Mark Morgan, who I respect immensely, and I know you do. He figures 14 million

00:26:25.680 illegal immigrants into this country over the course of the three years that Biden has been in the White

00:26:32.040 House. This is obscenity. It's madness, our vulnerability. This is pure jeopardy and threat

00:26:38.320 from within. And we can't seem to move this federal government because it isn't in its interest to move

00:26:45.860 now. They're reporting to their Marxist friends and the puppet masters who oversee Joe Biden.

00:26:53.980 Right. So one thing I want to bring up is President Trump has been pretty vocal about

00:27:00.000 saying how these countries are exporting their criminals, their crazies and all that stuff. Right.

00:27:06.460 Right. Look at what just is happening over the last week with this this new gang out of Venezuela,

00:27:12.300 Trende, Aragua, the MS-13 that are that are fleeing El Salvador record numbers because the president of

00:27:20.440 El Salvador happens to be very tough on crime is that the terror prisons going. So, of course,

00:27:26.220 they're coming to the weak American soft on crime country. And now they're terrorizing our citizens.

00:27:33.460 Look what they're doing in New York alone with snatching the pocketbooks, dragging people from

00:27:38.620 the mopeds, you know, ripping off these cell phones, sending them back down south. There's an extensive

00:27:44.900 organized crime ring with these gangsters all over. I mean, breaking news yesterday,

00:27:49.700 shooting in D.C., three cops are shot, the Kansas City parade, chief's parade, you know, people,

00:27:56.360 one person killed, 20 injured. It's insanity. So that's the thing. I have a hard time understanding

00:28:02.140 how the average American person, even if you're a Democrat, how do you accept this this lack of law

00:28:09.240 and order and this chaos? It's a great question. I think only one part of the answer is and we're

00:28:15.000 going to take a quick break here, Derek. One part of the answer is if you're voting Democrat,

00:28:20.480 understand you're voting absolutely for Marxists. We are watching the takeover of the United States

00:28:28.000 of America without a shot fired in the sense that there is no defense of America right now from the

00:28:34.440 people who could defend it. And we're going to take that up further with Derek Maltz,

00:28:39.220 great American. Stay with us. We're going to come right back. Folks, you know, I beg everyone to get

00:28:45.820 ready for the next crisis. And when it comes, our lives will likely change overnight, whether it's

00:28:51.600 natural disaster, war or another disease. We have to be ready as we can be. We saw what happened in

00:28:57.820 2020 when we found ourselves dependent on global supply chains. We're still dependent on China and

00:29:03.300 other countries for more than 90 percent of all our pharmaceuticals. With clusters of respiratory

00:29:08.520 illnesses popping up around the world and here, we need to be prepared. And now is the time to make

00:29:15.000 certain you have what your family needs when the next crisis hits. Our good friends, Dr. Peter McCullough

00:29:20.840 and Dr. Drew Penske over at the Wellness Company have put together just what you and I need with the

00:30:12.500 medical emergency kit. Prepare today. Be ready tomorrow.

00:30:16.220 We're talking with Derek Maltz and I have to say he's a former DEA official and I want to give him

00:30:25.880 credit for something. Years ago, he's the first person who really made me understand the dangers

00:30:31.980 of fentanyl and what was happening in this country and I credit him with my earliest knowledge of what

00:30:39.100 has been going on and he keeps up the tutorial as he is here today. Derek, to think that we don't have

00:30:47.680 any recourse in this country. The American people are scared to death, I believe. I think this is a

00:30:52.520 reason that you're seeing this. The January 6th prisoners are in jail for God knows how long because

00:30:58.320 of these these these crooked creep DOJ and FBI officers who overcharged, over prosecuted and over

00:31:07.980 over sentenced them all. The American people are watching what's happening. Cops aren't doing what they can

00:31:15.020 or what they would have done. They can't keep the streets safe. They're not enough of them. They're being

00:31:20.520 defunded. They're they're being demand. It's we're being torn to pieces from inside. And I can't blame

00:31:28.880 any American, any working man and woman and their members of their family who are not being absolutely

00:31:35.280 terrified right now. And I do urge every one of them, get a gun, whatever the hell else you do,

00:31:41.160 go get a gun and get prepared for the worst, because it looks like the worst is always possible

00:31:46.060 in this country based on the experience of just the last few years alone.

00:31:51.440 Yeah, Lou, I mean, obviously, with America's soft on crime policies and letting these savages out on 0.98

00:31:57.940 the streets, this is not going to get any better anytime soon. And yes, you're correct. They're

00:32:03.040 ripping us apart. And many people that are good Americans, they're afraid to speak out. I routinely

00:32:09.080 get asked by media folks, you know, to get some other retired law enforcement guys to speak out.

00:32:14.920 And unfortunately, everybody is like afraid, like the morale in law enforcement couldn't be any

00:32:20.360 lower. They're leaving at record levels, which is really serious, because if you don't have

00:32:25.860 experienced law enforcement executive leadership to guide the young law enforcement officials out

00:32:32.580 there, then what happens? Plus, technology, Lou, all the encrypted communications, now Facebook,

00:32:39.240 you know, converting all these conversations into encrypted end-to-end communications, law enforcement's

00:32:44.740 going to be in the dark. So as the criminals are invading us, we're losing the experienced law

00:32:49.800 enforcement and the capabilities to be able to go after these criminal threats. So one thing I actually

00:32:56.980 kind of focus on, too, is like, you know, Mayor Adams actually said something which is accurate.

00:33:02.880 This is a national problem. Well, no shit. We have a wide open border. It's not just New York. 0.99

00:33:09.940 It's the entire country. And that's the thing that drives me crazy, because these people around

00:33:15.640 America think it's not going to hit them. It's already hit them. Yeah. The bills, you can't afford 0.88

00:33:20.420 your food bills now and your gas bills. It's only going to escalate insurance, homeowners insurance,

00:33:26.740 your car insurance. It's all these hidden things that are creeping up on all of us. So it's coming

00:33:32.580 to a head. It's really, really scary. It is. It is. And so I don't blame most folks in this

00:33:39.740 country for being afraid. I really don't. I think they'd be fools not to be afraid, honestly.

00:33:45.100 But what I don't I don't have a handle on is why a Mike Johnson, Speaker of the House, doesn't have 0.91

00:33:53.620 the guts to take the lead here until President Trump is officially officially the 47th president,

00:34:02.300 because we've got a long way to go to get to November 5th. And I don't like these Hamlet. I don't

00:34:07.620 I don't like anybody, frankly, who doesn't can't figure out who they are and where they're going

00:34:12.000 and what their values are. I just haven't got time for that. People need to make choices and

00:34:17.700 the right choice. We're not making the right choices. And we are allowing school teachers

00:34:23.960 decide what sex our children are. We're letting professors in universities decide whether or not 1.00

00:34:30.700 we should be pro Hamas or pro Iranian. You know, I don't I I tell you what, I wouldn't put up with 1.00

00:34:39.060 one of them for two seconds. And I wish somebody well, I better not say what I wish somebody would

00:34:44.080 that these people are ignorant. They're leftist and they are anti-American and nobody wants to 0.99

00:34:49.020 no one wants to say it out loud. These people hate us and these people hate America. So why in the

00:34:56.760 world should we not respond in kind and insist on an assertion of our values and this nation's

00:35:04.260 sovereignty and principles? I just don't get it. Well, I mean, I agree. And I also don't understand.

00:35:13.100 We've talked about this, too. But like the first day that Biden's in office, he reverses all the sound

00:35:19.100 policies that have actually worked to keep all these illegals out of this country and have some sense of 1.00

00:35:25.760 order. But the fact that they reversed these policies, we know it's been it's deliberate,

00:35:32.020 right? They obviously have a plan and the plan is actually destabilizing and destroying America.

00:35:38.700 So, yes, they are facilitating the criminal networks around the world and the terror networks

00:35:44.560 to accomplish their radical agendas. And that is to destroy America. And that's that's as simple as I

00:35:51.060 can say from my perspective and following this closely. And that's really sad because you think

00:35:56.660 you would think growing up, you know, when I spent my 28 years in law enforcement, my brother came back

00:36:02.020 in a body bag from Afghanistan fighting for this country. My father was 30 years in DEA. You would I

00:36:08.220 would have thought like over the years, like the leaders of our government are supposed to keep us

00:36:13.420 all safe, right? That's what we believed. And now, look, it's totally opposite. There's still great

00:36:18.680 Americans out there trying. But look at a border patrol, though. The morale couldn't be lower.

00:36:24.680 They have no job anymore of security in America. They're basically babysitters and processes and they

00:36:31.720 hate it. That's not what they signed up for. No. And you know what else they did? Their union

00:36:37.260 backed that idiot bill. Yeah. That was surprising to me, honestly, just for a pay raise for the border 1.00

00:36:44.240 patrol. That's why they did the political side of it. It's all about the money. Well, Brandon ought to

00:36:49.660 be ashamed of himself. That's all I got to say on that. I mean, that's that's ignorant. He has he has

00:36:56.140 to be a bigger man than that. That job requires a bigger man. The border patrol should reject that. 0.62

00:37:03.660 I mean, to a person, to a chap. I mean, it's just we can't have a border patrol that that is if they're

00:37:10.480 that weak, they're not going to be any good if we put them on the line. Right. I mean it. I don't want

00:37:15.860 to hear from them now. The border patrol is now has made itself a joke. I understand everything else,

00:37:22.860 but now they're done. This is a group of people who have no principle, no, no guts. What do you think?

00:37:31.500 Well, I think the men and women that are working every day, putting their life on the line. Once again,

00:37:38.220 it comes down to the leaders that are not willing to speak up, that are political. So it's really a

00:37:44.780 sad situation because you would expect everyone in that organization to always put America's safety

00:37:51.320 and security first. Well, the politics got to be put aside. Derek, we can't get by it. They chose a pay

00:37:58.540 raise and they stay there. And you know what? We blame leaders in this country, but the truth is

00:38:03.900 we followers are responsible too. We're responsible for putting up. Yeah, I agree with what you're

00:38:09.780 saying to a degree. I agree with that. You know, people are expected to speak out and fight this

00:38:15.840 kind of stuff because it's not right. And it's not like it's a tremendous pay raise anyway. You know

00:38:20.780 what I mean? It's just a small pay raise. I think a percentage and a half or whatever it was.

00:38:25.320 So I agree like they should be more outspoken about this and they've caved under pressure.

00:38:31.560 Thanks, everybody, for being here. Join us tomorrow for The Great America Show.
