Manhunt underway after federal agents take gunfire as rioters, ram vehicles, hurl debris, and a gunman remains at large.
So far, we don't know exactly who's shooting at these cops, but we have reason to believe it is linked to the Latin Kings, gang members who have been issued shoot on site orders targeting agents in Chicago.
Now, I don't know what you'd call it.
Chicago's becoming a war zone.
I wouldn't necessarily say that this is civil war, but this is certainly what it starts like and what it looks like.
My friends, as I've described it, what you will see is you will wake up and you will hear the news.
You will hear the stories.
Bombings here, shootings there.
Virginia just elected a man who fantasized about killing children of his political enemies and killing his political enemies.
And I've said it to many people.
Nothing's going to happen.
Nothing formally.
We're not going to hear stories of conservatives being murdered.
Not from this, maybe from other stories.
No, the head of law enforcement, Virginia, when he does target prominent conservatives, it'll be for possession of contraband, illicit substance.
They'll get pulled over and given tickets.
They'll get pulled over, and cops will just happen to find a little baggie of drugs more than enough to jam up any one of these individuals.
You got guns, just so happens.
You did everything wrong with your gun, and they're coming for you.
Then they'll say, it's not political.
This Republican, it's a coincidence, he's a Republican.
He's just some guy we pulled over.
He had drugs.
And what will you do about it?
I'm going to bring in our friend Nick Sorter to talk about what is currently going on on the ground across this country, what he's seen covering this news.
Which instance of it are we talking about at this point?
You know, yeah, I know what you talk about.
I saw the photos of it with, you see, like a Jeep wagoneer with the windows busted out from the back because, you know, people are genuinely opening fire on these people.
And it's a matter of time before they're just assassinated in the streets.
Well, I mean, of course, I mean, the Latin Kings guys, and I believe other gangs out in Chicago have put out actual hits on people like this, like Greg Bavino, who's out there every single day in the streets.
You have the Judges out there, the activist judges that are taking the sides of these violent gangs and persecuting not the gangs, but instead, people like Greg Bovino, who they tried to force to come in there to court every single day at 5 p.m., which is just absolutely wild.
That was just an attempt to get him off the streets.
They didn't want him leading his men as he does.
You see these videos of Greg Povino.
He doesn't just bark orders.
He actually helps his men carry out those orders.
But man, look, we've seen the National Guard again and again and again being blocked and barred from going in and assisting federal agents, not doing their own mass roundups, but to protect the men that are being shot at and to protect the facilities that are attempting to be taken over by violent rioters and street gangs.
I mean, what more needs to be done before activist judges are finally like, huh, maybe, you know, the National Guard should be used to protect federal agents who are being shot at in the streets.
I mean, look at what we're seeing out in Portland, for example, where you have this activist judge that has been blocking the National Guard from just being able to protect the facility, not do law enforcement work, not, you know, chase criminals or anything just to guard the facility out there in Portland.
They know what the final result is going to be.
The National Guard will end up being in Portland.
That is pretty much a widely accepted outcome at this point.
But every single day that they can stall and delay is another day where hundreds of illegals in and around Portland can't be rounded up and sent back home because DHS agents are too busy guarding their own facility.
The fact that we've seen there's videos where I don't know if leftists is the right word.
Terrorists pop the doors open on these vehicles and allow the criminals to escape.
We've got this story where they tried pulling over a vehicle and the men and women sped into a shopping center, jump out and tried running into a school.
And then the media tries framing law enforcement as the bad guys.
I look at all this stuff and I'm just thinking, I don't know how, I don't know how we don't see civil war, to be honest.
I mean, I try to be, as much as I talk about it, you know, we don't know where it's going to go or how things are going to change, but we're at this point where governors, judges are actively assisting those.
If you look at Illinois, a great example, Pritzker, Johnson, and these judges attacking law enforcement, judges saying they can't have barricades in front of their facility while they're getting shot at and people are trying to murder them.
At a certain point, it's like, okay, they're trying to murder these guys and you're trying to hinder the guys from protecting themselves.
Well, honestly, Tim, I think one of the more the things that I worry about the most, and this isn't really being talked about too much, there is a campaign going on in the background to encourage jurors to essentially defect.
And, you know, it's called jury nullification.
I'm sure you know all about it, where you're seeing ICE agents being physically assaulted in the streets and juries are, you know, it's clear as day, clear as day.
It's on video, but these juries still go and they will acquit.
Or you see grand juries that won't even indict, not because there's no probable cause or there's no or there's no just proof, even.
It's because they are being told that they don't have to, if they don't want to, if they don't agree with this, with people that assault ICE agents being punished, then you can just acquit them and they don't have to worry about it.
And that's emboldening people to be more and more brazen, especially in places like Chicago.
You do have the sillier story where the guy threw a sandwich at a federal agent and got acquitted, which is pretty crazy.
I don't think the cop was injured, but certainly you'd give the guy at least a slap on the wrist for throwing a sandwich.
You know, I'm not going to say lock a guy up for 20 years over a sandwich, but he can spend the weekend in jail or something.
He can get a couple of days, he could pay a fine.
Like, hey, don't do that.
But you are right.
There have been several stories now where these grand juries and these juries are just going to acquit people.
You know, what's terrifying is what we see with other big news, of course, is that Trump issued pardons for several people like Giuliani, people who are involved in the 2020 election challenge.
And you can see in a jurisdiction like Atlanta or New York City, a jury will convict no matter what.
You can say the craziest stupid thing, and the political bifurcation is so intense and the vitriol is so intense that you can actually attack a federal officer and get acquitted.
And Donald Trump can be falsely accused of crimes and be convicted.
Yeah, dude, I'm terrified for this job for the American justice system at this point.
It's all politically based at this point.
I mean, we're going to see other folks that are genuinely guilty, like James Comey.
You'll see Letitia James and probably Adam Schiff when he ends up being indicted in Maryland.
I don't see any of them being convicted, unfortunately, by juries because they're being emboldened.
Every time you see something, even with the sandwich story, right?
Here in the Washington, D.C. area, all the local news starts blasting it out there almost in a celebratory fashion that is going to encourage other people that are on these juries in the future to do exactly the same thing.
And I mean, we're spiraling, man.
And you don't see that coming from the conservative side as much as you would see from the left.
You know, people like me, honestly, if I would have been put in front of a jury in Portland because I had been villainized so much by the media out there, even though I did absolutely nothing wrong to be arrested out there, I believe I would have ended up being convicted.
I got to be honest, I think the only reason you weren't is because the Trump administration made public statements on the issue and it put pressure on them where they said that the juice wasn't worth the squeeze.
But the fact that you got attacked by Antifa and they arrested you shows this is not about law enforcement.
This is about partisan conflict.
And the way I described it was the police in Portland don't see you as a victim of a crime.
They see you as an antagonistic enemy partisan invading their home.
That's why I'm like, this is not about the merits of law enforcement, law, Congress.
Is political partisans deciding when they want to defend their home and when they don't, but Conservatives keep acting as though we're in an argument, while Democrats are acting like they're in a war.
They're being told uh especially, you know they think they're in a war against literal Nazis and fascists and uh, and I mean you hear that uh, especially on the the streets of Portland at one point I got uh such a credible death threat uh from a trans individual we'll publish more about this soon uh, that I ended up backing off the streets for a few days out there, because that individual was literally looking for me, was armed and looking for me and there was nothing that was going to be done about it.
Portland police, you know, really don't show up very much on the streets out there uh especially, you know this is how it ended up working.
When I was out on uh, the the streets of uh uh, I was talking with my attorneys and stuff that are working out there.
We put together a 22-page pattern and practice of the the Portland police going back years, showing how they operate uh against antifa folks versus people that are perceived to be Pro-Trump uh, where they won't issue you permits for uh protests if you're, if you're doing Pro-Trump uh permits, but they will enforce uh the law against you if you try to have a permitless protest.
Meanwhile, we see Antifa going out there burning or trying to burn down buildings, uh taking over streets, and none of that is ever enforced against them and it's it's.
It's wild to me that this has been going on for over 10 years now and hardly anything has changed.
Nothing has been done.
The federal government needs to come in and put their foot down here and i'll release that document here, hopefully today, maybe even tomorrow, but the DOJ UH is working with me very closely on that, so hopefully something will happen.
You know i'm I I don't want to describe myself as pessimistic, but I don't want to say i'm optimistic with the recent shutdown news, like the government's, as of this interview.
It's not reopened just yet, but several Democrats have broken ranks.
But this is Biden's funding package.
This is the Biden spending bill the Republicans agreed to extend and Democrats acted like they didn't want or they were angry with it.
So now the Republicans are viewed as having beat the Democrats by giving them their Biden administration spending package.
I look at this stuff and you know Donald Trump says, end the filibuster so we can get the agenda done, and the Republicans won't do it, so that that makes me a little bit.
You know, i'm look there's there's, there's some stuff that makes me optimistic.
But I get pessimistic when I see this because it seems like 2028 is going to come around and it's Newsome's going to win or some.
There's going to be some Democrat advantage and it's going to just, it's going to get hot.
It's definitely going to get hot, but man, I don't see there.
I don't see how we passed really anything.
I think we passed a total of uh three bills this year.
Uh essentially, you know that that need 60 votes and uh, it's not.
Look man, the filibuster was never a part of the original constitution.
That came later, and it's not like the founding fathers didn't think about things that needed to have, you know, Know, a two-thirds majority or something, right?
Like they intentionally did not create a 60-vote threshold in the U.S. Senate.
I don't believe that there is any chance in hell that if the Democrats don't retake the Senate, that they don't nuke the filibuster.
I still think that the, you'll have like days of flare-ups, maybe if something happens.
So I think the National Guard should still be there anyway, ready for those possibilities.
But in Portland, for example, on the days where it was like cold and rainy, it was pretty much nobody out there because apparently fascism doesn't need to be fought when it's cold and or rainy.
To be fair, as much as I love Thanksgiving and Christmas, this period from Thanksgiving to New Year's, it's just like nothing happens.
Everything is frozen and it's boring.
But you know, boring can be good.
So, you know, maybe we can use a little of chilling out.
The problem is, I think the activist groups behind the scenes will still be organizing.
Republicans will go, I mean, the politicians to their families, have their vacations, and completely forget about this.
Conservative activists largely will just go with their families and do holiday stuff.
But I'm telling you, these far left Antifa guys who are wack-aloon weirdos are going to keep planning and organizing, not necessarily going out on the streets, but this will be their advantage because they don't have Christmas.
They don't have Thanksgiving.
Some do, but these wacky street rat guys, they don't.
You know, these people don't have, it's the same people out there.
They don't have any family to go spend a holiday with or anything.
So holidays really don't matter to them very much to begin with.
I mean, that is their, this is all they know.
A lot of them are misfits, Tim.
Like you have the, you probably know how this works too, because you've covered this for years.
You have the Antifa type militant people, right?
And then you have the misfits that don't really know what they support.
They're mentally ill, they're trans.
And these are the only people that they can fit in with.
And so that's what they do.
That's why you'll see them out there every single day, regardless.
And then in Portland in particular, you will continue to see, I think they will reset up their camp out there.
The Portland police are pretending like they're doing something right now.
That way they can go to the appeals court, which, because they're doing this an NBA hearing now, which is basically the entire, or at least most of the appeals judges for the Ninth Circuit out there to rehear this entire case.
And so they have to say, look, we're doing something for once in 10 years.
We're actually doing something.
And it's all for show.
And as soon as that goes away, even in the wintertime, you will see this camp set back up.
You'll see fires on the sidewalk and there will be some sort of group there.
The ones that I worry about are the leftist Antifa militants that will come out there.
And right now, a lot of them are like the day of the D team out there because they don't want the National Guard to come in.
So they're just sort of hanging out, don't have OG Antifa out there at the moment, but they could come in at any time.
And if you put your guard down, if ICE were to put their guard down up there, you'll see what happened back in June where the facility was stormed and they were being held hostage in their own building.
You're going to end up seeing something like that happen again.
What's worrying to me is with Chicago, it's not even a lot of well-organized antivatipes.
We're hearing stories of people throwing paint from their rooftops, gang members.
It's not just this French political faction anymore.
It's looking like what's happened over the past several years of the Biden administration bringing illegal aliens into this country has created massive communities of people who oppose our government, don't respect our country or our laws, and are effectively fighting against the law enforcement, trying to stop it.
It is maybe, you know, maybe you wouldn't call it war, but when you have 10 to 20 million non-citizens and we can't remove them, you know, they entered illegally, then we're on the verge of something, right?
Whatever you're going to call it, you've got it in California, Oregon, Washington, Illinois, and it seems to be getting worse, particularly in Chicago.
So what happens to this country?
I mean, we as Americans voted for this law enforcement, but now in places like Illinois, the governor and the mayor are more beholden to the non-citizens.
Zorhan Mamdani says he's going to protect the illegal immigrants from Trump.
Yeah, and that's this is one of my biggest concerns out here because obviously the immigration was probably the biggest issue on the ballot last year.
And I think a lot of people are underwhelmed by the numbers that they've been seeing so far because the, you know, whether you like to say it or not, the resistance has been working.
And we've got, in reality, we don't have three more years.
We have one more year in order to actually get this train at full speed and meet the numbers.
You know, the numbers aren't where they need to be.
I mean, I'm a big supporter of DHS.
I think that the guys in there are doing fantastic work, but there needs to be more.
I mean, even if we've deported 600,000 people and we're looking at 20 million people, that's hardly a dent.
You know, they want to look at just the most violent and whatever.
But in reality, they need to just, we need to be doing mass roundups because the fabric of the country is changing.
And if we don't get rid of these massive numbers of people and the Democrats get back in power because these areas have these massive populations of illegals and so they still count toward the census and we lose the House and the Senate and they nuke the filibuster, the country is done.
You know, we had, I can't remember who we had on the show on IRL.
They said, look, maybe we just do an amnesty for the people who've been here for a long time and then we say no more.
And it's like, yeah, that's the fourth time this country would have done that.
Letting in millions of people, amnesty, millions of people, amnesty.
And what happens?
They change the fabric of our social structure in a way that the American people don't want.
And what's the argument from the left?
It's white supremacy.
That if you were born in this country, even if you're black and you think this country is for Americans, you're a white supremacist.
They call Larry Elder the black face of white supremacy.
This is what they're going to do.
They're going to naturalize all the illegal immigrants that Biden brought in through an amnesty package, ending the filibuster, and the Republicans will never win another election again.
And it's very, it's much closer than people think.
When you've got such a massive portion of the population that believes that all of these illegals are actually victims here in a situation like this, and then they do regain power, they have the political capital.
The Democrats would have the political capital to come and say, look, this is why we need to give them amnesty because the Republicans are trying to round them up and put them in concentration camps.
And this is the only way we can protect them.
And you'd get a huge portion of the country that would go along with that.
I mean, Tim, just being honest, like look at how much it's heated up and continues to heat up and how normal it is now for, you know, when you mentioned at the top of the show that there are ICE agents that were shot at in Chicago.
And I mean, this is like basically a story that's at the bottom of page two on all of the not all the news networks, but any news networks going to pick it up.
It's not a headline anymore.
And when it's becoming normalized like that, and you're seeing these increasing these people that are increasingly open about calling for conservatives and ICE agents and stuff to be killed, I don't see how it doesn't get worse.
And you see more of a summer of love type thing coming next year in the midterms.
I mean, you look, look at what happened in 2020.
They had this perfect opportunity because it was an election year, this perfect opportunity to just take over the streets.
And elected officials were too afraid to do anything about it and come down on them hard because it was an election year and they were worried about either losing the majority or losing the, in this case, the presidency.
And I think you're going to see something similar to that again.
I really hope not.
I hope that the federal government can get their act together quick enough and hopefully have National Guard deployed in various hotspots around the country ready for that.
But unless they do that, it's going to get a lot worse.
Yeah, I think at least by just before the midterms, we can expect to see another, I'll put it this way, another high-profile assassination or killing, I believe, is very, very likely within this next year.
Because the killing of Charlie Kirk was like a green light for these people.
Death threats have exploded exponentially.
The average, there's so many academics who are like, oh, this certainly will wake people up and things will calm down.
It's not.
It's only gotten worse.
I recently had a security assessment.
They said it's gotten worse and we should be upping our security more.
And I think the polling will be bad for Democrats more than it should be.
Democrats should easily win the midterms next year based on historical trends, but things are changing based on the violence.
So I think what may happen is in their desperation, the far left will act out again.
It's going to hurt them in the polls again.
Then they're going to act out even more because they're going to fear if they lose the midterms, they won't be able to stop Trump.
I think it's going to get hot.
And I hope it doesn't.
But if it doesn't, then I think the likely reality is Democrats just end up winning in the midterms.
And once they get congressional subpoena power, even with President Trump, people are going to prison.
There are some interesting things about New Jersey.
They gained 500,000 new voters in the past couple of years that all voted Democrat.
Honest question.
How does that happen?
There are suggestions, of course, that there was cheating.
But if you look at these, there's viral images showing the total number of voters in New Jersey and the vote margins between the Democrat and the Republican are always comparable with a slight increase slowly over time.
For some reason, this one election, Democrats have an additional 500,000 votes.
And people are saying, where did those people come from?
So, you know, regardless of whether or not they cheated, people certainly think they did.
So, Nick, it's great.
Great to have you.
Any final thoughts you want to shout or anything you want to shout out before you go?
There'd be a big story coming out of there this week.
But, you know, I also want to say on that measure, if we don't get the, if we don't start looking into using our DOJ to drill down deep into these elections, I know these blue states continue to stonewall the DOJ in terms of like voter registration data.
And, you know, like Pennsylvania, for example, you don't even have, like, you can go and register to vote.
You don't need an ID for that either, not to vote nor register to vote.
And until we get serious about that, you know, I don't think that anybody can be fully faithful in these elections.
That is, of course, Nick Sorter on the ground, extraordinaire reporter, covering all of that stuff.
Antifa, Portland, all of that field reporting that I don't do anymore.
I don't need anymore.
