[00:02:45] A development in the saga of Merrick Garland. [00:02:51] Now, we have been covering this story more extensively and more thoroughly than I believe than almost any other show of what was on the National School Board Association of America's letter to the White House that was actually concocted in collusion with the Biden White House that was then used as a basis for the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the Department of Justice to launch a task force against moms and dads that show up at school boards across the country. [00:03:18] Now, you might remember a couple weeks ago, Merrick Garland testified in front of Congress, and Merrick Garland downplayed the entire situation. [00:03:28] When pressed, Merrick Garland said he could not imagine any circumstance that parents complaining about their school boards would be labeled as domestic terrorism. [00:03:36] You see, Merrick Garland has the Bob Mueller thing going. [00:03:39] Merrick Garland either doesn't know or is lying under oath to Congress willingly to cover up for a craven, radical, insidious, malevolent, and dangerous domestic agenda. [00:03:55] Now now that the war in Afghanistan is over, it is becoming more and more clear that the new war that the regime wants to conduct, the war that they want to wage, is a war on you. [00:04:08] The National School Board Association letter, otherwise known as the letter that broke the entire educational world, led to the memo, the memo from Merrick Garland that inexplicably called for the defense apparatus to use potentially the Patriot Act and Department of Homeland Security to go after moms and dads. [00:04:32] This is a legitimate scandal that is heating up, which we will now call MemoGate. [00:04:39] Cut 58, Merrick Garland in front of Congress said that he could not imagine any circumstance that parents complaining about their school boards would be labeled as domestic terrorism. [00:04:50] Cut 58. [00:04:51] Like you, I can't imagine any circumstance in which the Patriot Act would be used in the circumstances of parents complaining about their children, nor can I imagine a circumstance where they would be labeled as domestic terrorism. [00:05:06] New whistleblower last night shows that Merrick Garland lied under oath in front of Congress, as all of these deep state unelected operatives do. [00:05:15] No one voted for Merrick Garland. [00:05:17] Merrick Garland is an unelected Plato guardian type that wants to usher in a globalist, internationalist, borderless society while he does not actually have to live under those same rules and measures. [00:05:30] Whistleblower breaking last night. [00:05:33] The Federal Bureau of Investigation, the FBI, created a threat tag to track allegedly menacing statements against school boards and their members after Attorney General Merrick Garland directed the Bureau to take the lead on hyper-local disputes. [00:05:49] A whistleblower has revealed. [00:05:51] The email dated October 20th, about a month ago, released Tuesday by House Judiciary Republicans, who said this was proof that the federal counterterrorism was being deployed against parents at school board meetings. [00:06:07] I want you to soak in what I just told you. [00:06:10] We now have definitive proof that the federal Bureau of Investigation has a task force and is domestically spying and surveilling on moms and dads that show up and complain about what's happening in their local school district. [00:06:29] The email, which House Republicans said come from a whistleblower, shows the creation of the tag, EDU officials, to track related threats. [00:06:39] The counterterrorism division says, quote, we ask that your offices apply the threat tag to investigations and assessments of threats specifically directed against school board administrators, board members, teachers, and staff. [00:06:51] The Criminal Investigative and Counterterrorism Division says. [00:06:54] The purpose of the threat tag is to help scope this threat on a national level and provide an opportunity for comprehensive analysis of this threat picture, for an effective engagement with law enforcement partners at all levels. [00:07:06] This was a message sent by the deputy assistant director of the FBI Criminal Investigative Division. [00:07:13] So if you're a mom or dad listening to this, and maybe you showed up at the Scottsdale Unified School District recently, maybe you showed up at the Loudoun County School District recently, maybe you showed up San Bernardino, maybe District 214 or District 211 for all my friends listening on AM560, the answer. [00:07:27] We now have proof, according to a whistleblower, you're likely in a database from the FBI. [00:07:33] This database is supposed to be used against people like al-Qaeda members or ISIS that try to bring dirty bombs into downtown Houston. [00:07:41] Not moms and dads that show up to meetings and say, I don't like what you're teaching my kid. [00:07:48] On October 4th, this all comes back to the October 4th memo from Merrick Garland, who outlawed the federal law enforcement taking the lead about a disturbing spike in harassment. [00:07:57] And Merrick Garland lied in front of Congress. [00:08:00] This is a domestic war on terror. [00:08:02] Make no mistake. [00:08:03] These are the things that we used to do against people that we wanted to put in Gitmo. [00:08:07] PlayCut 59, Fox reports on how an FBI whistleblower warned Congress that the Bureau is indeed tracking parents who protest their school boards. [00:08:15] PlayCut 59. [00:08:17] Breaking tonight, we're getting new information about federal authorities tracking parents upset over their children's education. [00:08:24] Information from a whistleblower that GOP lawmakers say seems to directly contradict what the Attorney General told them. [00:08:31] The top Republican on the Judiciary Committee, Jim Jordan of Ohio, wrote to Garland about the whistleblower. [00:08:37] He says that the email provides evidence that the feds again used counterterrorism tools against parents. [00:08:45] Now, what about the cartel that is trafficking children across the southern border, bringing guns into the inner city of our country? [00:08:52] What about the violence in Chicago that the FBI is seemingly okay with? [00:08:58] So far in Chicago, 718 people have been shot and killed, 3,375 people shot and wounded, 4,093 people total shot for 763 total homicides so far this week in, not this week, this year in Chicago. [00:09:14] No, but the enemy according to the Biden regime and Merrick Garland is you. [00:09:19] It's the moms. [00:09:20] It's the dads. [00:09:22] And what's so amazing is this email dated October 20th is this is after the cross-examination on Capitol Hill occurred, where Merrick Garland was asked to explain himself. [00:09:35] Why is it that you are using the Patriot Act that's supposed to be used against people that are trying to blow up buildings against moms that are concerned about their children? [00:09:50] The real threat to society is the police state that is now being headed by Attorney General Merrick Garland. [00:09:56] Everyone that is listening to my voice right now, you have never lived through something like this. [00:10:01] I do not want, I hear this sometimes from people. [00:10:03] Oh, Charlie, it's been bad before. [00:10:04] Cut it out. [00:10:05] We've never had this before. [00:10:07] Stop it. [00:10:08] We have never had the Federal Bureau of Investigation spy on moms and dads that are concerned about their curriculum. [00:10:13] Sure, we had Cointel Pro back in the 60s and 70s. [00:10:16] We've had the FBI try to infiltrate groups. [00:10:18] We have never had the war on families, the infiltration of the security apparatus state. [00:10:24] But here's what's so important. [00:10:26] Republicans created this. [00:10:29] Establishment Republicans, they're the ones that pushed for the Patriot Act. [00:10:33] Establishment Republicans, they're the ones that pushed for the creation of the Department of Homeland Security. [00:10:39] And where's the outrage? [00:10:40] I hear stuff from Jim Jordan. [00:10:42] I hear some Republicans saying some things. [00:10:43] Oh, I'm sorry. [00:10:44] That's right. [00:10:45] They were too busy applauding Joe Biden's infrastructure package the other day at the White House. [00:10:51] Will Merrick Garland be arrested for lying to Congress like Steve Bannon? [00:10:55] And by the way, Bannon didn't even lie to Congress. [00:10:57] He just was under contempt of Congress, which was such a preemptive indictment. [00:11:02] Well, probably not, because Merrick Garland would have to indict himself and sign his own arrest warrant. [00:11:06] We need a special counsel, a Ken Star, Robert Mueller, immediately to investigate Merrick Garland and the Attorney General's office using the FBI to go after parents. [00:11:22] Did you know that if you shop at Nike, they turn around and give your hard-earned dollars to pro-abortion groups like Planned Parenthood and the Population Council? [00:11:29] Did you know that Airbnb gave $500,000 to the Marxist Black Lives Matter organization? [00:11:35] Your first vote is at the ballot box, but that isn't enough to defend our traditional Judeo-Christian values. [00:11:41] Left-wing corporations are subverting our democracy by taking money from conservative customers and giving it to radical organizations that support abortion, gun control, and critical race theory. [00:11:52] You have another vote, a second vote at the checkout line. [00:11:55] And that is where massively important organizations called Second Vote come in.

[00:12:55] Memo gates, Merrick Garland with his memo started the process. [00:13:03] This was the Gulf of Tonkin for the war on terror. [00:13:09] This was the assassination equivalent of what started World War I. [00:13:14] I think it was a Serbian, a Bosnian president, wasn't it? [00:13:17] It was Archduke Ferdinand, I think. [00:13:19] What do I mean by that? [00:13:21] This was the opening shot of the regime's beginning of the war on terror against you. [00:13:27] They are trying to intimidate you, everybody. [00:13:29] They are trying to make you so afraid, so intimidated, so oh, he was assassinated in Sarajevo, which is in Bosnia. [00:13:42] Thank you. [00:13:42] He was Austrian. [00:13:46] So hesitant to want to get involved that you just allow the regime to do whatever they want. [00:13:54] According to a whistleblower from the Federal Bureau of Investigation, the FBI is now compiling information under the tag EDU officials to track parents that communicate complaints to school boards, administrators, teachers, and staff. [00:14:19] Directly at odds to Merrick Garland's testimony, sworn testimony under oath to lawmakers. [00:14:25] Now, Senate Republicans, instead of actually doing their job, they're too busy passing $1.2 trillion infrastructure packages. [00:14:33] $2.5 billion, by the way, of the infrastructure package put money towards tree equity. [00:14:40] That's right. [00:14:41] Tree equity. [00:14:43] That's what your Republicans voted for. [00:14:45] Now, why do I connect those two? [00:14:47] Because your Senate Republicans that voted for that infrastructure package, they've been too busy working the deal, doing the process, glad-handing fellow Democrat senators, while the FBI now has Patriot X-style tags on you. [00:15:08] Why would you even negotiate with this regime? [00:15:10] Why would you vote for any bill that they put up while this is even remotely happening and it is happening? [00:15:18] FBI creates threat tag to track alleged harassment of educators. [00:15:23] They're never going to stop doing this until they realize that there's a legitimate opposition party in this country. [00:15:31] And as we've said before, the new war is not going to be won in Taiwan. [00:15:35] It's not going to happen in Taiwan. [00:15:37] The regime doesn't want that. [00:15:38] It's not going to be one of sand and death in the Middle East. [00:15:42] It's not going to be a conflict in Eastern Russia. [00:15:45] No, the new war is against you. [00:15:50] And Garland lied under oath about it. [00:15:52] U.S. Code, Title 18, Section 1621. [00:15:55] Anyone who willfully and contrary to such oath, states, or subscribes any material matter which he does not believe to be true is guilty of perjury and shall be fined or imprisoned up to five years or both. [00:16:06] How is Merrick Garland not guilty of lying under Congress? [00:16:10] The same way Loretta Lynch was and Eric Holder was and Clapper and Brennan and Comey. [00:16:15] None of them, of course, go to jail. [00:16:17] But oh, by the way, if Roger Stone lies in front of Congress, send him to jail. [00:16:24] This pales in comparison, by the way, to Watergate, because millions of parents and their ability to raise their children are now under attack by their own government. [00:16:39] I sure hope people start waking up. [00:16:47] This provides specific evidence that law enforcement operationalized counterterrorism tools at the behest of left-wing special interest groups against concerned parents. === Liberals vs Collectivists Explained (03:12) === [00:16:58] We've gone through this in great detail. [00:17:00] In great detail, we've explained the difference between leftists and liberals. [00:17:05] Liberals are naive and they are weak. [00:17:08] But liberals can be good people. [00:17:10] Liberals and I will disagree vehemently on social policy, obviously. [00:17:16] But they would never put up with this. [00:17:17] Our government has been taken over by collectivists and totalitarians. [00:17:24] When you see a mom show up at a school board meeting, and if you have seen a mom show up at a school board meeting or if you've showed up at a school board meeting, your government now views you in the same vein as Osama bin Laden. [00:17:39] Your government now views you in the same vein as a 9-11 hijacker. [00:17:43] The Biden regime is treating moms and dads that show up and go into the conversation about textbooks as domestic violent extremists. [00:17:57] In New America, 20 years after 9-11, the FBI is using the tools that we gave them, Republicans gave them, as a way to say, you know who the real hijackers are? [00:18:09] It's that 37-year-old mom with three kids who shows up and complains. [00:18:13] Spy on her. [00:18:16] Are you worried about America's future? [00:18:18] Times of trouble are full of reasons to despair. [00:18:21] But those who built and have preserved our country did not despair. [00:18:25] And if we are going to do our part, we need to draw on the books, the history, and the ideas that gave our forefathers and mothers strength and inspiration. [00:18:35] Hillsdale College, the beacon of the North, the last college, was founded in 1844 to teach all of these things, and it teaches them still today. [00:18:43] The great news is that we can study all these things along with Hillsdale College professors right in our homes. [00:18:49] I take the Hillsdale online courses. [00:18:51] And in fact, I'm going to go to Hillsdale right now, to charlie4hillsdale.com. [00:18:55] I'm going to show you directly how I'm doing with my online courses.

[00:20:15] I'll tell you. [00:20:16] That's something that Nicholas Sandman, who's become a very wealthy man, thanks to the media, has said he wrote, The media came for me like they came for Rittenhouse, but should he sue? [00:20:26] And he says, The corrupt liberal media came for me just like they came for Kyle Rittenhouse. [00:20:30] And if he decides to sue, I say go for it and hold the media accountable. [00:20:34] Nicholas Sandman. [00:20:36] I want to close out with kind of reiterating this story from Merrick Garland. [00:20:41] We need a special prosecutor to look into MemoGate immediately. [00:20:44] But remember, it goes deeper than this. [00:20:46] Merrick Garland is financially incentivized to crush political dissent against critical race theory. [00:20:53] His son-in-law is a co-owner of the company that has been implementing diversity, equity, inclusion, and CRT all throughout the curriculum, all throughout schools, I should say, across the country. [00:21:05] As we went through earlier this hour, the FBI has created a threat tag. [00:21:11] They have created a special coding system to profile parents that might become too disagreeable or that might speak out against the regime. [00:21:23] Garland testified and he said that this would never happen. [00:21:28] He could not imagine any circumstance that parents would be spied on upon this. [00:21:32] So either Merrick Garland is not running the Department of Justice or he lied under oath. [00:21:36] Either way, Merrick Garland must resign. [00:21:39] Garland came under fire last month during congressional testimony where he denied weaponizing the FBI against parents opposed to critical race theory and vaccine-related mandates. [00:21:49] The controversy began on October 4th when he announced a concentrated effort. [00:21:54] You know what's really interesting? [00:21:55] Merrick Garland never announced a concentrated effort against violent crime. [00:22:00] He never announced a concentrated effort against the flow of drugs into our country. [00:22:04] Merrick Garland never announced a concentrated effort against the incredible increase in cyber attacks or in child sex trafficking. [00:22:15] No, no, no. [00:22:16] Instead, Merrick Garland from the Department of Justice announces a priority that the biggest concern, the biggest thing that he wants to focus on that his regime needs to curtail is parents. [00:22:35] And remember, his son-in-law, Zan Terror, is married to Rebecca Garland and is the co-founder of the controversial education service, Panorama Education, which is a social learning resource material provided to school districts that teach teachers how to teach critical race theory. [00:23:00] So you have the Attorney General of the United States who uses police power that politically intervenes to try and push back against parents so his family can continue to become rich. [00:23:16] And he lied under oath. [00:23:20] Now the question is: will Republicans, I think Republicans are going to do the right thing and hopefully call him to testify quickly. [00:23:28] We need answers on this immediately. [00:23:30] And by the way, Democrats should be concerned about this as well. [00:23:35] Democrats should be concerned that the Federal Bureau of Investigation is now being used to go after political opponents that they deem to be a threat to their power. [00:23:52] All scandals currently lead back to Attorney General Garland. [00:23:56] Merrick Garland will go down as the most craven, corrupt, disingenuous, and dangerous Attorney General in American history. [00:24:05] He makes Eric Colder look like child's play. [00:24:08] Merrick Garland is a scorned man because he wanted to be on the Supreme Court. [00:24:13] Signing arrest warrants to go after James O'Keefe, not arrest warrants, but search warrants to go after James O'Keefe in the Southern District of New York and just confiscating his devices and putting him in handcuffs. [00:24:25] Signing arrest warrants going after Steve Bannon. [00:24:27] And now the FBI, the FBI is really worried, everybody. [00:24:33] No, they're not worried about the fact that the cartels are bringing in children against their will, that women are being raped in record numbers across the southern border. [00:24:41] The FBI couldn't care less that violent crime is up. [00:24:44] The FBI couldn't care less that we are experiencing jury intimidation in Wisconsin. [00:24:50] No, The FBI, their priority is parents, shutting them up and treating them like ISIS. === Lockdowns Causing Drug Deaths (14:57) === [00:25:03] Look, everybody, the country's falling apart. [00:25:05] We know it. [00:25:06] And we do a lot of different partnerships, but this one, I want you to listen carefully.

[00:25:30] You saw with the Fauci virus, things can get bad quickly. [00:25:32] I've prepared myself and my family, and I hope you have too. [00:25:35] There's a food shortage coming, and the way things are going, it's not looking good. [00:25:38] And none of us should ever gamble with our family's well-being.

[00:26:20] We have decided that we want to do everything we can to try and prevent unnecessary deaths. [00:26:30] Our media is so focused on things that do not matter. [00:26:35] We have now surpassed 100,000 annual drug overdose deaths just this year. [00:26:43] You wouldn't know it if you read the New York Times or the Wall Street Journal. [00:26:45] Wall Street Journal's been okay. [00:26:46] I shouldn't be tough on them. [00:26:48] You wouldn't know it if you read the Huffington Post. [00:26:49] They're too worried about talking about systemic racism or racist roads. [00:26:56] No, they're too worried talking about the Green New Deal. [00:27:02] Meanwhile, we have 100,000 of our fellow citizens and countrymen that died from drug overdoses. [00:27:11] More than 100,000 people died of drug overdoses in the United States during the 12-month period ending in April 2021. [00:27:19] How many were in 2001? [00:27:20] So 20 years ago, it was 20,000 deaths. [00:27:24] Now, it's 100,000 deaths, a five times multiple increase. [00:27:29] Five times. [00:27:30] Five times multiple increase. [00:27:32] Opioids continue to be the driving cause of drug overdose deaths. [00:27:36] Maybe the FBI should be worried about the flow of drugs in our country and where opioids are going, not moms and dads showing up at school board meetings as exhibited in MemoGate with Merrick Garland. [00:27:46] Synthetic opioids, primarily fentanyl, cause nearly two-thirds, 64% of all drug overdose deaths in a 12-month period ending in April of 2021, up 49% the year before. [00:28:01] And yet we have this endless conversation about systemic racism and about things that are really difficult to pinpoint or explain, but something that's super simple to explain, such as, I don't know, 100,000 of our fellow citizens are overdosing on drugs. [00:28:22] Silence. [00:28:23] The person who's in charge of public health, Anthony Fauci, he doesn't even talk about drug overdoses. [00:28:30] He's too worried about vaccinating your children, despite the fact that 100,000 people are dying every single year of drug overdose deaths. [00:28:39] I have an innocent question. [00:28:40] Do vaccines prevent you from fentanyl? [00:28:44] Does getting the mRNA COVID vaccine prevent you from a drug overdose? [00:28:49] Does wearing a mask prevent you from dying from a drug overdose? [00:28:55] Listen to Pete Buttigieg. [00:28:56] This is the priority of the regime. [00:28:58] Racist roads while 100,000 people are dying of drug overdoses. [00:29:03] Play tape. [00:29:04] I'm still surprised that some people were surprised when I pointed to the fact that if a highway was built for the purpose of dividing a white and a black neighborhood, or if an underpass was constructed such that a bus carrying mostly black and Puerto Rican kids to a beach, or that would have been, in New York, was designed too low for it to pass by. [00:29:26] But that obviously reflects racism that went into those design choices. [00:29:30] You hear that? [00:29:30] Racism in road design construction, everybody. [00:29:34] That's the priority. [00:29:35] Meanwhile, drug overdoses are one of the leading causes of death. [00:29:42] We are on pace to have more people die of drug overdoses than Alzheimer's. [00:29:49] According to the data, it says that COVID-19 killed 509,000 people in that same timeframe between May 2020, April 2021. [00:29:58] And some of those are still being adjusted, by the way, some of those death tallies, because dying from COVID or with COVID. [00:30:05] But because of the lockdowns and because of the self-inflicted trying to kill a mouse with a Tomahawk missile, the lockdowns then increase the rice and the use of fentanyl and being key contributors in the rising overall death toll, overdose death toll. [00:30:20] Synthetic opioids account for 64% of all drug overdoses. [00:30:24] I know just in my own personal circle, I know a couple of people that have overdosed from drugs, not people I know personally, but friends of friends and people that went to high school with whatever. [00:30:34] The regime couldn't care less about this. [00:30:36] They do some sort of task force and all this. [00:30:38] Why is this happening? [00:30:40] This is happening because we decided to send all of our manufacturing over to mainland China. [00:30:45] So the inland of our country, Appalachia, West Virginia, Ohio, they no longer have muscular work or purposeful work. [00:30:53] We have our borders wide open so fentanyl and opioids can fly into our country. [00:30:57] And we have an overly motivated professional medical class of doctors that prescribe painkillers via opioids when other natural supplements very well could have done. [00:31:09] I had a phenomenal dentist when I got my wisdom teeth removed. [00:31:13] And I talked to her and she says, look, I don't like prescribing opioids. [00:31:16] And we didn't. [00:31:17] We decided not to. [00:31:18] And I wasn't even in that much pain because she did such an amazing job. [00:31:22] That was like two months ago, wasn't it? [00:31:23] Two months ago, I got that done? [00:31:25] I was back on radio three days after I got my wisdom teeth removed, all four of my wisdom teeth removed. [00:31:29] And what was amazing is she said, Charlie, I do a good job and I spend extra time on it, so you don't have to take opioids. [00:31:36] You know, most people take opioids after wisdom teeth removal? [00:31:39] I didn't know that. [00:31:40] Not to say that you're necessarily going to be addicted, but a large percentage of people that end up getting addicted to opioids is because of an injury, work-related or otherwise, they get prescribed opioids. [00:31:51] And the Sackler family, who was behind all of this, they just got exonerated in court, basically, and they say you don't have to pay the fine anymore. [00:32:01] Wouldn't this be something that we should have our leaders focus on that is just minorly more important than the current chattering class that we see? [00:32:10] I wonder where all those drugs are coming from, by the way. [00:32:14] And what the pandemic has also done is that it's exposed the utter corruption in the pharmaceutical and medical industry. [00:32:23] Washington Free Beacon has a story. [00:32:25] Surge in fentanyl seizures show cartels taking advantage of lax border policies. [00:32:30] Department of Homeland Security shows. [00:32:33] The Customs and Border Patrols fentanyl seizures skyrocketed by over 40% in the month of October as drug traffickers and cartels take advantage of the border crisis. [00:32:43] Officials within Border Patrol and DHS disputed the characterization at the White House, saying that we really, there's not much we can do. [00:32:54] Fentanyl is flying into our country at a record level. [00:32:58] The lockdowns and the lowering of expectations, the damaging of America has turned into this. [00:33:10] You want to flatten the curve? [00:33:12] This is a curve that you should try to flatten. [00:33:15] By the way, do you notice that under Trump, it did actually plateau, briefly? [00:33:20] Do you notice that? [00:33:21] It was going down. [00:33:22] And then the lockdowns go down and up. [00:33:29] 2017, it actually decreased. [00:33:31] 100,000 people a year. [00:33:36] I would like to see our leaders actually take that seriously. [00:33:39] And also to the drug dealers themselves. [00:33:42] No, no, no, we're too busy trying to lock up 17-year-olds in Kenosha, Wisconsin, who defend themselves against child rapists that try to kill them. [00:33:50] That's the priority of the regime. [00:33:54] We're going to look back at the lockdowns. [00:33:56] We tried to warn people, but of course, we don't have the platform, the influence that we hope one day to have, that the lockdowns will go down as one of the worst mistakes in American history. [00:34:04] No epidemiological advantage, a structural disadvantage for drug addiction, alcohol addiction, depression, suicide. [00:34:12] You have a generation, the most miserable generation brought to you by the lockdowns, the tech companies, pharmaceutical companies. [00:34:19] But don't, no, no, don't worry, buddy. [00:34:21] We're addressing racist roads and bridges. [00:34:23] Yesterday, Department of Homeland Security Secretary Mayorkis was grilled in front of the Senate. [00:34:30] I want to go through this. [00:34:31] This is incredible. [00:34:32] This guy is one of the most dangerous and incompetent cabinet secretaries our country has ever seen. [00:34:42] Listen to this. [00:34:43] How many getaways have we had so far this year, Andrew? [00:34:45] 1.4 million getaways? [00:34:47] Is that right? [00:34:47] So 1.4 million, 1.7 million people have come into our country illegally. [00:34:52] They've waltzed in. [00:34:53] Meanwhile, we criminalize our own citizens. [00:34:55] But if you're from Honduras or Nicaragua, you could walk into the country and do whatever you want. [00:34:59] And he was asked, what grade would you give yourself? [00:35:01] How you doing, man? [00:35:03] Listen to this. [00:35:03] Cut 51, head of the Department of Homeland Security, Mayorkas, Cut 51. [00:35:09] Do you believe that the Biden immigration policies are successful? [00:35:15] Senator, I think rebuilding a broken immigration system and rebuilding a dismantled one takes time and we're on the road to success. [00:35:23] So you think we're on the right track as a nation? [00:35:26] I do. [00:35:26] Okay. [00:35:27] How would you grade yourself? [00:35:29] Senator, I'm a tough grader on myself, and I give myself an A for effort, investment, in mission, and support of our workforce. [00:35:40] An A for effort. [00:35:41] You hear that, everybody? [00:35:42] 1.7 million people waltz into our country. [00:35:44] We have 100,000 people dying of opioid overdose, and your government thinks that they're doing a great job. [00:35:49] You know what? [00:35:49] Because he actually is. [00:35:51] He's doing a great job for their goal. [00:35:53] He has a mission to keep the borders open and to lie to you. [00:35:59] Under his own grading curve, he's doing wonderful. [00:36:03] If the goal is to keep the borders open, Mayorkas is the great parter of the Red Sea. [00:36:08] Maorkis is basically Moses. [00:36:10] Let's just be honest. [00:36:11] Maorkis is the man who has just said, if you're from Honduras, you can come. [00:36:15] But if you're from Cuba, don't you dare come because you vote Republican. [00:36:20] He then triples down and says, we have more control over the border than the previous administration. [00:36:25] Play Cut 55. [00:36:30] Senator, I believe in the policies that we are putting forward, and I condemn a number of the policies that were promulgated in the prior administration. [00:36:37] So you think we have more control over the border now than we did under Trump? [00:36:41] Senator, we're very focused on the national. [00:36:44] That's not the question. [00:36:44] You're being focused. [00:36:45] Do you think we have more control over the border now than we did under the last administration? [00:36:49] I think we have more control that is consistent with our values as a nation. [00:36:54] That is consistent with our values as a nation. [00:36:58] Senator Ted Cruz, who's terrific, grills him, Mayorkis, over the Biden cages as Mayorkis refuses to use the term cages. [00:37:08] Cut 57. [00:37:11] How many children have been in the Biden cages in calendar year 2021? [00:37:17] Senator, I respectfully disagree with your use of the term cages. [00:37:23] Fine, you can disagree with it. [00:37:24] How many children have been in the Biden cages? [00:37:26] How many children have been in those cages? [00:37:28] Senator, I can provide to you the following figure that when, and let me say, that when a child... [00:37:37] I don't... [00:37:37] It's a simple question. [00:37:39] How many children have been in those cages? [00:37:41] I respectfully am not familiar with the term cages and to what you are referring. [00:37:46] Not familiar with the term cages. [00:37:49] We spent a whole summer kids in cages, kids in cages. [00:37:52] Now it's like, I don't know what you're talking about. [00:37:55] Language is a weapon to the left. [00:37:57] They have no truth. [00:37:58] They don't care about truth. [00:38:00] Ignorance is strength. [00:38:01] War is peace. [00:38:03] And if you disagree, you're a racist. [00:38:06] Cut 50, Secretary Mayorkis admits they're not all refugees, and they're not even refugees. [00:38:11] These are hardened criminals, by the way. [00:38:13] You break into our country, you're a criminal, you should be deported. [00:38:16] But not all of them that came into America were given in-person interviews, which is the standard. [00:38:20] Play Cut 50. [00:38:22] My question is, are you conducting the standard security procedure is the standard screening procedure for refugees is they are conducted, they are given an in-person interview to find out, for example, if they're a terrorist. [00:38:36] So you said 100% of these evacuees are screened. [00:38:40] Have they all been given in-person interviews per the normal process? [00:38:43] They have not. [00:38:45] They have not been given interviews. [00:38:47] Last cut, Play Cut 49, Senator Cruz blasts him for not knowing basic information on the border crisis. [00:38:54] Play Cut 49. [00:38:56] You told another senator you don't know how many gotaways there have been? [00:38:59] I will have to circle back, Senator, with that information. [00:39:02] But you're not prepared to answer it. [00:39:04] How about this? [00:39:04] How many deaths, how many illegal aliens have died crossing illegally into the United States under Joe Biden's administration? [00:39:11] I don't have that data. [00:39:12] All right. [00:39:12] How about this? [00:39:14] How many children have been in the Biden cages in calendar year 2021? [00:39:19] Senator, I respectfully disagree with your use of the term cages. [00:39:26] So that's the first part of the other segment we heard. [00:39:28] Doesn't know how many gotaways, doesn't know how many deaths. [00:39:30] Yeah, this guy's in charge. [00:39:31] No, he's doing a great job. [00:39:32] He's doing a great job for what Biden wants. [00:39:34] Biden wants as many illegal third world people to come into the country as possible. [00:39:38] And for that, Maorkis gets an A for open borders. [00:39:41] Thanks so much for listening, everybody.
