[00:01:27] Brought to you by the loan experts I trust, Andrew and Todd at Sierra Pacific Mortgage at andrewandTodd.com. [00:01:36] What is a country? [00:01:38] Well, a country is defined by borders. [00:01:40] It is necessary for a country to have sovereignty. [00:01:46] If a country does not, then it's just kind of a loose collection of territories or colonies that could be traded in, and your citizenship doesn't really mean anything. [00:01:56] Now, this is not controversial. [00:01:57] It shouldn't be controversial in any way, shape, or form. [00:02:00] A country needs borders. [00:02:04] A border is a defining line where your Constitution begins and where the Constitution ends. [00:02:09] It is the limitation on one's power. [00:02:13] When a country does not have borders, it is very easy then to deteriorate and disintegrate the ethos or the spirit of that very nation. [00:02:24] A nation without borders is not a nation at all. [00:02:27] It's not a controversial statement. [00:02:29] In fact, 90% of Americans agree with that. [00:02:33] Borders are nothing new, by the way. [00:02:35] Borders have been around for thousands of years. [00:02:38] Borders are also a sign of humility. [00:02:42] Borders are a statement that we don't run the world. [00:02:46] We're going to govern ourselves. [00:02:49] That we're not in charge of Central and South America, that we're not in charge of Canada. [00:02:53] There are partners, there are allies, but they can have a right to their own self-determination. [00:02:58] A border is a limitation, a self-imposed limitation. [00:03:02] One of the reasons why people like Gates and Soros don't like borders is they actually don't want to admit that there might be limitations on their own power, their own wealth, and their own sovereignty. [00:03:14] They want unlimited power, wealth, and sovereignty. [00:03:18] Where a border is saying, you know, we're going to stop here. [00:03:21] This is us. [00:03:22] We're going to manage what we have. [00:03:25] Well, we're currently living under the stated policy portfolio of open borders. [00:03:31] I saw it for myself in Yuma in late February. [00:03:35] We did an entire program kind of summarizing that. [00:03:38] But some border patrol agents have now sent us numbers as to how's it going right now on the southern border. [00:03:45] These numbers are not yet public. [00:03:48] So you could divide the southern border into different sectors. [00:03:50] Now, mind you, we could secure the southern border overnight. [00:03:54] We just do not have the will. [00:03:55] We could have drone reconnaissance. [00:03:57] We could send Marines, National Guards. [00:03:59] We could build a wall. [00:04:00] We could have technology. [00:04:02] We could do it if we wanted to do it. [00:04:05] If we treated the southern border like a bank, we could secure the 2,000-mile bank of the southern border by a bank. [00:04:15] I mean, the literal bank where you deposit money, where there's, you check in, you check out, there's cameras. [00:04:20] We're wealthy enough. [00:04:20] We're sophisticated enough. [00:04:21] We could figure it out. [00:04:22] We could have drones every 10 miles. [00:04:25] We could have Border Patrol be able to use technology to deploy. [00:04:29] So you could divide it by sector. [00:04:30] The only reason the southern border remains open is because your politicians want it to remain open. [00:04:35] Republicans want it for cheap labor, and Democrats want it for cheap votes. [00:04:40] Democrats want it to be a continual issue. [00:04:42] Democrats generally don't believe in borders. [00:04:44] And if they believe it, they'll believe in like super weak borders, if at all. [00:04:47] Like, oh, yeah, kind of sort of a suggestion line. [00:04:50] But it is a gateway drug to deteriorate the American republic. [00:04:57] Big Ben sector just this month, the smallest of all the numbers outside of El Centro, 2,132 gotaways, 3,458 apprehensions. [00:05:08] Del Rio sector, 36,600 apprehensions this month, and 2,000, 20,454 people that got away that went to the interior. [00:05:18] We do not know who those people are. [00:05:20] I want to say that again. [00:05:20] That's 20,454 people just in the Del Rio sector that came into America and will never know who they are. [00:05:27] We might hear about them when they murder an American or drive drunk and run into a school bus. [00:05:33] We might hear about them when they steal Social Security numbers, but now they're in the country. [00:05:38] El Centro sector, 6,834 apprehensions. [00:05:42] Now, apprehensions does not mean we send them back to Mexico. [00:05:44] It doesn't. [00:05:45] The apprehensions mean they're also released into the United States. [00:05:48] They just get paperwork. [00:05:48] So you might say, well, Charlie, why do some people want to get away and some people want to be apprehended? [00:05:53] Really good question. [00:05:54] I asked that question at Border Patrol. [00:05:55] The people that want to get away, they're the criminals, like the legit criminals. [00:06:00] They're the drug traffickers. [00:06:02] They're the gun traffickers, the gun smugglers. [00:06:04] They're the ones that are coming into the United States to help the proliferation of crime. [00:06:09] 6,085 getaways just this month in El Paso sector. [00:06:15] Laredo, 12,134 apprehensions and 1,686 gotaways. [00:06:23] RGV sector, the Rio Grande Valley sector, 38,115 apprehensions and 3,270 gotaways. [00:06:31] San Diego sector, 14,914 apprehensions and 4,761 gotaways. [00:06:38] Isn't it funny how we know they get away? [00:06:40] How do we know they get away, you might ask? [00:06:41] Well, we have cameras that just watch them. [00:06:43] We just don't do anything about it. [00:06:45] We know they're crossing. [00:06:47] We see them. [00:06:48] We just don't do anything about it. [00:06:50] No, we're too busy. [00:06:51] Republicans are too busy approving more funding to give the IRS more money to go audit you and your family and your business. [00:06:58] We're too busy sending military equipment to Ukraine while we know people are just waltzing into the country on a daily basis. [00:07:05] Tucson sector, 24,532 apprehensions and 16,429 gotaways. [00:07:13] The Yuma sector, 29,686 apprehensions just this month. [00:07:20] That's 1,000 a day in Yuma. [00:07:24] Gotaways, 2,953 gotaways. [00:07:29] In total, just here, this month, 186,000 people were apprehended and 57,604 people got away. [00:07:43] Just walked into the country. [00:07:44] We do not know who they are. [00:07:47] And because 186,000 people were apprehended, the people that get apprehended want to be apprehended, by the way. [00:07:53] They come in, they raise their hands. [00:07:54] Please apprehend me. [00:07:55] Give me a court date. [00:07:56] Give me the papers. [00:07:56] I'm in the United States. [00:07:57] We'll never hear from them again. [00:07:58] The papers allow them to vote in certain states. [00:08:01] The papers allow them to get on airplanes. [00:08:03] The papers allow them to do all these sorts of different things. [00:08:06] Even get social security benefits, not social security, but like welfare benefits in New York, whatever. [00:08:10] So they take those papers and they're able to do whatever they want. [00:08:12] They never show up for the court date. [00:08:14] But the getaways are so bad. [00:08:16] These people are such hardened criminals, the getaways, that if their name was ever typed into a database, it would come up like flashing red, like, oh, rapist from Panama. [00:08:28] 57,604 of them this month. [00:08:33] This month. [00:08:35] 15,080 people with no arrest. [00:08:39] 186,453 apprehensions. [00:08:43] That's just the month of March. [00:08:45] To give you an idea, there were 156,000 Allied soldiers involved on D-Day, 156,000 Allied soldiers on D-Day. [00:08:53] If you combine the apprehensions and the gotaways, that's 230,000 people that have crossed the southern border, more than the amount of people that we used to invade on D-Day on Normandy Beach to reclaim Europe from the Nazis. === March Apprehension Statistics Revealed (02:01) === [00:09:07] But don't worry, let's just keep talking about Ukraine non-stop, everybody. [00:09:11] Now, some people say those are disconnected. [00:09:12] They're two separate things. [00:09:13] Are they separate things? [00:09:14] Why is it that the political leaders rush to go send $14 billion to Ukraine, but they can't even have $500 million to go to the southern border? [00:09:22] Because they don't want the southern border to be secure. [00:09:25] Our border has merely become a suggestion. [00:09:28] And they want the southern border to be deteriorated because they, of course, want the cheap labor to be able to continue to depress American wages and maximize their profits. [00:09:36] And additionally, and most importantly, which I think we need to kind of hammer home, the people in charge, they think that America having a border is colonialistic, racist, backdated, outdated. [00:09:53] Well, your entire country is being overrun on a daily basis. [00:09:57] It is being overrun. [00:10:02] Hey, everybody, Charlie Kirk here.

[00:11:05] What is Title 42? [00:11:07] Well, Title 42 expulsion is a loophole. === Constitutional Loophole Explained (15:56) === [00:11:09] I fully admit it. [00:11:10] Everyone should admit it, but it's a great loophole. [00:11:12] It's a constitutional loophole. [00:11:13] It is an effective and creative way to secure our country. [00:11:17] Title 42 is a provision of the immigration code that allows removal by the United States government of people who have recently been in a country where communicable disease was present. [00:11:28] So President Trump said, wait a second, so we have COVID. [00:11:30] Why can't I use that to have stronger border policies? [00:11:33] Bingo, great idea. [00:11:35] And it was used for that. [00:11:36] But Title 42 is set to expire coming in May. [00:11:43] And when it expires, we will be on the verge of a mass migration event, the likes of which we have never seen in our country's history. [00:11:52] Those numbers that I exclusively just told you what's happening on the southern border, it's going to explode beyond it. [00:11:59] It is going to make it seem as if we have had no immigration previous to it. [00:12:06] Now, of course, while the country, the regime media wants us to be focused on what's happening in Ukraine, let's talk about some of the specifics and the sound of what's happening on the southern border. [00:12:17] Senator Ted Cruz comments on this: play cut 73. [00:12:21] Over 2 million people crossed illegally last year, the highest rate of illegal immigration in 62 years. [00:12:29] We just passed the threshold of a million people crossing this fiscal year. [00:12:36] And it's only March. [00:12:38] These are not just numbers on a piece of paper. [00:12:41] These are human beings. [00:12:44] We are looking at what will be one of the largest mass-scale invasions in our country's history. [00:12:51] And most of your leaders aren't even talking about it. [00:12:54] So the Biden regime knows about this, actually. [00:12:56] And there is a question asked: Is the Biden administration prepared to deal with the aftermath of ending Title 42? [00:13:02] Actually, a really good question. [00:13:03] The White House Communications Director says, quote, when the CDC decides, there'll be an influx of people to the border. [00:13:08] They know there'll be an influx of people to the border. [00:13:11] They know the cartel is just licking their chops. [00:13:14] So just so you understand, it's not like people just kind of pick up their belongings in Honduras, like, I want to go to America. [00:13:20] That's not the way this works. [00:13:21] This is why I call it an invasion. [00:13:23] You have to understand this. [00:13:24] You've got to go down to the border and study it yourself if you don't believe me. [00:13:29] They go down to Honduras, the cartel does, because this is money making. [00:13:31] It's $6,000 to $7,000 a head per person. [00:13:34] They go down to Honduras. [00:13:35] They're going down to Guatemala. [00:13:36] They're going down to Nicaragua. [00:13:37] They go down to Costa Rica. [00:13:39] To a lesser extent, they'll go down to Panama. [00:13:40] They'll go down all the way to South America. [00:13:42] They'll go into the poorest villages imaginable. [00:13:47] And they'll basically say, for $7,000 each and a portion of your earnings in America, repatriation, you give us the money, we'll smuggle you into America. [00:14:00] And because Biden is now president, we will train you that when you cross the border, you're not going to have to remain in Mexico policy and you will not be expelled. [00:14:09] We'll train you how to do that. [00:14:12] Now, the peasant or the poor person, I don't say peasant pejoratively, but it's what it is, what these people are. [00:14:19] God bless them. [00:14:19] They have no money. [00:14:20] $6,000 is like everything they have that they've accumulated over the last multiple generations. [00:14:27] They'll ask the cartel person who's literally recruiting them, by the way, the cartel person who's like prying them out of these villages, what happens if we get caught? [00:14:37] I don't want to have to lose this money. [00:14:39] And the cartel person is able to improve their sales pitch when they are preying on the peasants in Honduras and Guatemala. [00:14:45] What they say is, no, no, no, no, don't worry. [00:14:47] We're going to give you a piece of paper. [00:14:50] And on that piece of paper will be exactly what to say to the border patrol person. [00:14:54] We're going to tell you where to enter and how to enter. [00:14:56] So then you go to Yuma, and it's not people that are just kind of like meandering across the border. [00:15:01] No, this is organized. [00:15:03] There are vans of people that there are cartels with binoculars looking at the sectors, looking at where to bring them through. [00:15:13] And they say, okay, go now and say this. [00:15:17] An American border patrol is not allowed to cross the Mexican border. [00:15:19] Of course not. [00:15:20] Mexican border patrol is non-existent. [00:15:22] Mexico could solve this in a second. [00:15:25] Donald Trump showed that when he threatened a 5% tariff on Mexican goods coming into the United States overnight, the southern border crisis went down like 90%. [00:15:34] If we do not solve Title 42, which is a constitutional loophole to protect and safeguard the well-being of the United States, estimates show that 3 to 4 million people are going to come this summer. [00:15:46] 3 to 4 million people is bigger than the population of 23 states. [00:15:49] The cartels are already working on this, by the way. [00:15:52] The cartels are working neighborhood by neighborhood in Nicaragua and Guatemala and southern Mexico. [00:15:58] They are going door to door. [00:16:00] They're collecting people and they're saying, here's our infrastructure. [00:16:04] Just so you understand, the cartels are a legitimate corporation. [00:16:08] Not legitimate in the way that they're doing anything good, but they're sophisticated. [00:16:11] They have hierarchy. [00:16:12] They move products. [00:16:13] They move goods. [00:16:14] They move services. [00:16:15] American politicians are quiet. [00:16:20] For a couple of years now, people have been setting up a contest between crypto and gold, but that's like comparing a truck with an SUV. [00:16:26] Both carry stuff and travel from A to B, but they do different jobs. [00:16:29] Gold's job is to keep the value of your money safe and preserve its value. [00:16:32] And since Ukraine, the oil and the inflation crisis, it's done a brilliant job compared to stocks and other investments. [00:16:38] So if you're worried about what's going on right now, who isn't? [00:16:40] Just talk to an expert at Noble Gold about precious metal IRAs for your retirement. [00:16:44] They'll put you straight on your options and hold your hand through the whole setup process. [00:16:49] And this month, for any qualified IRA, you'll get an incredible three-ounce Silver American Virtue coin completely free as a thank you. [00:16:56] So call 877-646-5347.

[00:17:07] Some of you are saying, well, Charlie, if it's so easy, why doesn't Biden do it? [00:17:10] He doesn't want to do it. [00:17:11] The Democrat Party's stated public policy position is open borders. [00:17:16] We're bringing in the great reset. [00:17:17] It's all tied together. [00:17:19] Remember, part of the great reset is to try to destroy American sovereignty. [00:17:25] Okay, Cut 75. [00:17:27] Congressman Chip Roy is trying to give us a warning. [00:17:30] Play Cut 75. [00:17:32] As we sit here in the chamber of the United States House of Representatives today, the Secretary of Homeland Security has announced that he is ready to end the use of Title 42 on our southern border. [00:17:44] This as we speak, while in March, we've had 100,000 apprehensions in the first half of the month, barreling towards 200,000, of which half have been able to be turned away under Title 42. [00:17:55] When the Secretary ends Title 42, there will be a deluge at our southern border. [00:18:03] So it is a crisis right now, an unprecedented crisis. [00:18:08] But if we repeal Title 42, it'll make whatever crisis we're living through right now look like nothing. [00:18:16] Title 42 is the only thing that is holding back some of these apprehensions that allow us to deport some of these people based on what country of origin they came from. [00:18:25] And the White House knows this. [00:18:26] They admit it. [00:18:27] They're like, yeah, we're trying to see what we're going to have to do to plan for that contingency. [00:18:30] The same people that gave $85 billion to the Taliban, the same people that completely messed up every major situation that they have seen in front of them, inflation, gas prices, the invasion of Ukraine. [00:18:44] They're like, oh, yeah, we're planning for the contingency. [00:18:46] Oh, really? [00:18:46] Play Cut 74. [00:18:48] Is the Biden administration prepared to deal with the aftermath of ending Title 42 and the expected influx of migrants? [00:18:56] So first, what I would say is that this is a decision that we have long deferred to CDC. [00:19:02] Title 42 is a public health directive. [00:19:04] It is not an immigration or migration enforcement measure. [00:19:07] So the decision on when to lift Title 42, we defer to the CDC. [00:19:13] That being said, of course, we are planning for multiple contingencies. [00:19:17] And we have every expectation that when the CDC ultimately decides it's appropriate to lift Title 42, there will be an influx of people to the border. [00:19:26] And so we are doing a lot of work to plan for that contingency. [00:19:30] What work are you doing exactly? [00:19:31] They want them in the country, obviously. [00:19:34] They are stuck between their ideology and actually having to explain to the American people that they want complete and total, wide open borders. [00:19:41] Mitch McConnell is speaking out against this, thankfully. [00:19:46] But I would just ask Mitch McConnell respectfully: why are you approving all this money to go to Ukraine? [00:19:51] Why don't you use that as a bargaining chip? [00:19:54] Why are you passing these multi-trillion dollar bills and not leading to get us what we need to secure our country? [00:20:01] Play cut 70. [00:20:03] So now, according to public reports, the Biden administration is preparing to cave to the radicals and Title 42 and effectively throw our borders completely wide open. [00:20:16] Ending Title 42 without any real border security plan in place would spark a humanitarian and security crisis like we've never seen before. [00:20:26] And it's beginning. [00:20:27] A caravan of hundreds of migrants is leaving Tapachula, Mexico today. [00:20:31] The first step will be Mexico, first stop will be Mexico City, with the final destination being at the U.S.-Mexico border. [00:20:38] This is a direct result of the Biden administration's decision to end Title 42. [00:20:42] The date of the policy termination is set, May 23rd. [00:20:45] I see the picture right here of the caravan. [00:20:47] Let's put it up on the live stream. [00:20:48] They're starting. [00:20:50] They're moving. [00:20:51] So who's actually trying to set the Title 42 policy and rescind it? [00:20:55] Well, big business would love it. [00:20:57] They're going to get cheaper labor. [00:20:59] And the Biden administration sees this as a way to fight inflation. [00:21:03] Precisely what we predicted last year, by the way, in an article that was widely ridiculed by the regime media, but it's true, where they need more people to trade with dollar bills, therefore spreading the value of the dollar bill over more people. [00:21:19] 500,000 illegals per month expected at border, 500,000, with new caravans being formed all across Nicaragua, Guatemala. [00:21:31] Now, the people that actually are running these caravans are cartel leaders. [00:21:36] The caravans just don't organize themselves, and they're assisted by NGOs, non-governmental organizations, to bring these people all up across the interior of Mexico. [00:21:44] Now, if we had a president, which we don't, that actually loved America, which he doesn't, we could fix this immediately. [00:21:52] Joe Biden or a president of the United States right now should fly down to Mexico City and convene every Central and South American country worth their salt, except maybe Venezuelans. [00:22:01] Say, listen, 50% tariffs happen next week if you don't employ your military to stop this. [00:22:07] We'll do our part on our border, but if you do not intervene, there's tariffs happening immediately via condios and leave the building. [00:22:16] They wouldn't even know what hit them. [00:22:18] They'd say, they'd go to the media. [00:22:19] That's racist. [00:22:20] No, it's not. [00:22:20] They would quiver and they would surrender everything. [00:22:23] Okay. [00:22:24] Next thing you know, the Mexican military would be in the streets. [00:22:26] This caravan would be taken care of. [00:22:28] That would be leadership. [00:22:30] Instead, we're, oh, well, we're going to see what kind of contingency we have while we are being overrun. [00:22:36] Our infrastructure is being overrun. [00:22:39] And there's a deeper point here that I think animates a lot of you that are emailing us, freedom at charliekirk.com. [00:22:44] You do your job every day. [00:22:46] You wake up early, you go to work, you pay your taxes, and yet you go see these criminal vigilantes just be able to waltz into the country. [00:22:53] How about those of you that came here legally? [00:22:55] We have a lot of legal immigrants that listen to our program. [00:22:58] A lot of you, first or second generation immigrants, think about why didn't my family come here the right way when I just could have waltzed across the border in Honduras? [00:23:07] And let me add, I saw for myself IDs from the Republic of Georgia, from Kazakhstan, from Azerbaijan, from Iran, and from Cuba of people that are crossing the southern border. [00:23:22] You might say, how's that possible? [00:23:23] And there's a lot of Russians coming in as well, a lot. [00:23:27] How is this possible? [00:23:28] Well, they fly into Mexico City, they take a connecting flight to Mexicali, and then they cross the border. [00:23:36] We played that tape not too long ago on this program exclusively Of the people that this one guy that we got on video that came from Georgia and said, Yeah, I just want to come to America. [00:23:51] We just let him in. [00:23:53] No problem. [00:23:54] What's so frustrating about this and what's so why it's just so infuriating, this entire topic, is it's so easy to fix. [00:24:03] It's not like this is complicated. [00:24:05] We need to have all this research. [00:24:08] This could be solved in an afternoon. [00:24:09] One leader with the will to do this could solve this whole thing. [00:24:12] You convene the Central and South American countries, you threaten them with tariffs, we mobilize the National Guard, the Marines, you get it done immediately on the southern border. [00:24:20] You extend Title 42, you reinstitute Remain in Mexico policy, you get the governor of Arizona, the governor of Texas to mobilize their own National Guard and create a citizen force to do the same. [00:24:30] We've been calling that for that for a while. [00:24:32] You put all these partners together. [00:24:34] You would get border crossings to go from half a million a month down to $5,000 a month if that. [00:24:38] It could go from half a million to 5,000 and nothing if we had the will to do it. [00:24:42] We used to be a country that would go to the moon, invade Normandy Beach, and do incredibly impossible things. [00:24:50] Now we can't even do the easy and the simple things. [00:24:53] The number of migrants from Central America has increased significantly over the past 30 years by 137% between 1990 and 2020 from 6.82 million to almost 16.2 million. [00:25:03] Why? [00:25:04] Well, this is the story that no one wants to tell. [00:25:06] And we are going to tell it with Border Battle at a Turning Point USA upcoming documentary. [00:25:11] We actually focus on why this is happening. [00:25:13] The cartel. [00:25:14] We focus on how the cartel is the driving force. [00:25:17] The cartel is the subsidy mechanism. [00:25:19] The cartel is the business model of what you are seeing on the southern border. [00:25:23] This does not happen organically. [00:25:25] Okay, left to its own devices, we'd have a couple thousand people a month that just went across into the border, but very few people would make that journey themselves. [00:25:34] Very few people would just kind of pick up their own stuff and come to, that's a tough journey. [00:25:38] In fact, that's the country, that's the border situation we had back in 2003, 2004, 2005. [00:25:43] But then the cartels got smart. [00:25:45] You see, the cartels have shifted gears. [00:25:48] Yes, they still bring opioids. [00:25:50] Yes, they still bring fentanyl. [00:25:52] Yes, they still bring, they don't bring marijuana across very much anymore. [00:25:55] They still bring cocaine. [00:25:56] They still bring guns. [00:25:57] But do you know what they realized is the most profitable venture to bring across the southern border? [00:26:02] People. [00:26:03] People. [00:26:04] Slavery, by the way. [00:26:07] I'm going to be very blunt. [00:26:08] That is slavery. [00:26:09] It's pure and simple slavery. [00:26:12] Buying a person and bringing them from one place to another and requiring that person to pay part of what they need to pay, part of like their remittances back to the country, back to the cartel. [00:26:25] It's happening right now. [00:26:27] The ownership of human beings happens every single day. [00:26:29] In fact, it's happening at 500,000 people a clip. [00:26:32] So how do you stop the cartel business model? [00:26:34] Well, if you can't bring people across the southern border, you can't do it illegally. [00:26:38] You can't do it in vast numbers. [00:26:40] Well, then all of a sudden the business model of the cartel drives up, dries up. [00:26:44] And the thing about the cartel, what they love about this, is that if they get caught smuggling human beings, the penalty is far less. [00:26:52] Bringing drugs across or bringing guns across, that's a separate issue. [00:26:56] When you go meet with the locals in Yuma or in Tucson or Nahalis or in the Rio Grande Valley, the local border patrol, their morale is at record low. === Cartel Business Model Breakdown (02:08) === [00:27:06] They're so overwhelmed. [00:27:08] They are, they're drowning. [00:27:10] They're drowning in the overwhelming amount of people that are coming into the country. [00:27:14] They're drowning with the massive influx of illegals that are just pouring in relentlessly. [00:27:21] And they feel as if the regime wants it. [00:27:23] They feel as if the presidency of the United States doesn't care. [00:27:28] Clip 72, Border Patrol is begging for a wall, and our leaders won't give them one. [00:27:33] Play Cut 72. [00:27:34] Border barrier is a needed tool for Border Patrol agents. [00:27:37] As I mentioned in my remarks, especially as an officer safety tool, they work 24-7. [00:27:44] That night, the evening hours is one that becomes very busy for them because the adversary takes advantage of that. [00:27:50] And when I say adversary, yes, I'm talking about cartels. [00:27:54] And I'm talking about transnational criminal organizations and human smuggling organizations, who at the end of the day, it's a commodity that they're trying to push between the ports of entry. [00:28:04] So without barrier, we become more vulnerable. [00:28:07] We, the men and women of the Border Patrol. [00:28:09] So barrier is very critical. [00:28:11] Is it needed? [00:28:12] Absolutely. [00:28:14] Is it needed? [00:28:14] Absolutely. [00:28:15] That's a Border Patrol El Paso sector chief, Gloria Chavez. [00:28:20] Can't call her racist. [00:28:22] She's the Border Patrol El Paso sector chief that says, is a wall necessary? [00:28:27] Absolutely, a wall is necessary. [00:28:32] Spring and summer are the seasons for finally getting outside for entertaining pool parties and barbecues.

[00:29:39] Okay, so Governor Ducey signed in a piece of legislation authored by Representative Jake Hoffman, who we had on this program before. [00:29:46] Very vanilla piece of legislation. [00:29:50] Not controversial. [00:29:52] Down the middle, basically it says illegals can't vote and you have to show that you're a U.S. citizen to vote in Arizona. [00:29:58] Not controversial, not even voter ID. [00:30:00] Just you got to prove you're a citizen. [00:30:02] Almost instantaneously, within hours, Mark Elias and the Elias Law Group, remember that Mark Elias, the very same one that was the architect of the 2020 election of the ballot schemes, [00:30:20] comes in and represented Stacey Abrams, all of that, that Mark Elias came in and sues the state of Arizona and said, quote, the proof of citizenship restriction continues a baseless assault on Arizona's election system based on a conspiracy theory that non-citizens are voting, despite a persistent lack of credible evidence to support such claims. [00:30:46] The restriction is the newest in a series of cynical and bad faith attempts to use these politically motivated and false allegations to limit access to voting by eligible, lawful citizens. [00:30:56] What? [00:30:58] If you want eligible and lawful citizens to vote, then you should have no concern making sure that citizens can only vote. [00:31:05] So basically they're saying, okay, this law needs to be repealed because it's unconstitutional because we want to make sure that people that are citizens that could vote. [00:31:15] But that's exactly what the law does. [00:31:16] Continues, quote, with so many pernicious voting restrictions, proponents of the proof of citizenship restriction. [00:31:23] Can I just pause here? [00:31:24] You have a major Democrat lawyer that is suing, saying that the fact that you have to prove you're a citizen is wrong. [00:31:31] Proponents of the proof of citizenship restriction justify it by invoking the boogeyman of voter fraud without any proof to support their claims. [00:31:39] Well, Mark Elias, I'm like to have an open invite to Mark Elias. [00:31:43] You can come with me anytime and watch 2,000 Mules by Dinesh D'Souza. [00:31:47] Come with me. [00:31:49] Love to have you watch 2,000 Mules. [00:31:51] Hey, Mark Elias, were you involved in the ballot harvesting track-ficking scheme in Yuma, Arizona? [00:31:56] Because there's actually a mule on camera in the 2000 Mule video, a movie, saying that she was paid to go drop off ballots at locations in Yuma where there were no cameras present in the middle of the night. [00:32:11] Were you involved in that, Mark Elias? [00:32:14] Just asking. [00:32:16] During the legislature's consideration of the bill, no legislature identified a single incident of voter fraud or impropriety in Arizona related to mail and early ballots. [00:32:24] This is not true. [00:32:26] We have, through cell phone geolocation technology, hundreds of people that were paid to go to ballot drop box after ballot drop box after ballot drop box after ballot drop box. [00:32:36] And this is the most obvious point. [00:32:37] Mark Elias, if this is no big deal and there was no fraud, then why on earth would this proving you're a U.S. citizen be such a problem? [00:32:43] Why would you dedicate your resources, your time, and your treasure to try to fight something that is not a big issue? [00:32:53] We have the tape here of Border Battle. [00:32:55] I'm going to play a short tape of this. [00:32:56] Just a short clip of our upcoming six-part documentary series brought to you by Turning Point USA. [00:33:01] It's called Border Battle, Frontlines. [00:33:03] We expose the cartel for what they're doing. [00:33:05] I've been very underwhelmed, quite honestly, on how most organizations have been remained quiet on the border. [00:33:11] At Turning Point USA, we're going right into the issue. [00:33:13] Play Cut 78. [00:33:17] The border has been a sensitive topic for years. [00:33:21] Hundreds showing up to the graveside service for the victims of the cartel attack. [00:33:26] But what is actually going on? [00:33:28] The reality is, we are at war. [00:33:31] Tortured, shot, dismembered, and left in those trash bags on the side of a paradigm. [00:33:37] This isn't a war that's covered. [00:33:39] Drug trafficking has gone up over 450-something percent. [00:33:43] This isn't a war that anybody wants to talk about. [00:33:47] But we are at war. [00:33:51] That's just a small taste of what you're going to see from Border Battle. [00:33:55] And if you have not visited the southern border to see it for yourself, I encourage you to do. [00:34:01] And many of you don't have the resources or the time or the ability to live so far away to do that. [00:34:06] So we're going to summarize that for you. [00:34:07] Every state is a border state, by the way. [00:34:10] Maine is a border state. [00:34:11] Michigan's a border state. [00:34:12] Minnesota is a border state. [00:34:13] What's happening on the southern border is impacting every citizen across America. [00:34:19] Thank you so much for listening, everybody. [00:34:20] Email us your thoughts.
