And we are live.
What's up, guys?
Welcome to Fed Reacts, man.
I know you guys can see a different setup here.
This is, you know, the new studio.
It's about 80-90% of the way complete.
We got a lot to talk about.
We're going to talk about the day in the life of being a federal agent, specifically with HSI.
Let's get into it.
Special agent with Homeland Investigations.
Okay, guys.

John Wayne Gasey, aka the killer clown.
Okay.
One of the most prolific serial killers of all time.

They really get off on getting attention from the media.
Many years, Jeffrey Epstein sexy exploited and abused dozens of minor girls at his home.
It was OJ working together to get Nicole killed.
We're going to go over his pass, the gang time so that this all makes sense.
Yeah, what's up, guys?
Welcome to uh Fed Reacts.
Let me know how the sound is, guys.
Um, I'm using a completely different and new setup right now.
Um, I'm in another room in another part of the studio uh where I've been um building this place up.
It's not 100% of the way done yet.
It's uh I would say 80 to 90 percent.
Uh I still got some panels that I gotta put up on the ceiling, and I also still got uh I'm gonna put a big Fed React sign right behind me.
Uh you guys can see here I got the thin blue line flag, I got another American flag there, and I got some other things I'm gonna be putting in the background, decorate this place a bit more.
Then I got apart for um Angie here where she's gonna be sitting next to me running it.
She's also gonna have a camera and everything else like that, which I gotta set that up.
But right now it's just a one-man show.
Uh Bill's and Mo are actually here, they're in the uh studio, the main studio, and they're setting up uh an IRL backpack, okay?
Because as you guys know, we're gonna be doing an IRL stream for your mock.
Uh we're gonna be doing an IRL stream on the yacht for New Year's.
Um, so we definitely stay tuned for that.
I think you guys are gonna definitely enjoy that one.
Um so you guys will be able to see kind of, you know, uh the lifestyle of Miami, okay.
I'll be honest with y'all.
If I wasn't IRL streaming, I wouldn't be there.
So uh yeah, I would have been just been staying at home.
But since uh we're gonna be streaming it, I'm like, all right, well, I'll I'll I'll show up.
Um everything is pretty much the same, guys.
I'm running this show solo.
We're getting you giving you guys uh, you know, a classic Fed Reacts type episode today.
Um FNF Super Chat.com, guys.
Um, and also I'll be reading the chats.
Uh, because as you guys know, we can't um we're demonetized on YouTube, right?
On all the channels, unfortunately.
So I can't pull up the chats like I used to when I used StreamYard on YouTube on uh on StreamYard.
So I'm using StreamYard right now.
I'm not using Stream Labs.
I'm gonna use Streamlabs on my next show, but Bills has to like set it up for me and everything else like that.
And we didn't have time to set it up today uh because we got to get going here in about this show's gonna be a shorter show.
It's gonna be about an hour, hour and a half.
Um, and uh yeah, I'm just gonna kind of um go through what it was like, how I got on the job, etc.
Um, I know you guys have been requesting this for a while.
Uh the last episode we did, we covered um the Barbie killers with Angie.
Um, and then I didn't I we didn't do a show last Sunday, I think.
I'm trying to remember why.
It was I think Bills and them were sick.
Oh no, it was oh yeah, because it was the holidays.
Uh we didn't do it because it was uh Christmas.
That's why we didn't I didn't do a show last time.
Uh yeah.
Um it was Christmas Eve.
Um, but I couldn't go two weeks without doing a show for you guys.
So we're gonna definitely do a show, even though it's New Year's Eve.
Excuse me.
Even though it's New Year's Eve, we're gonna do a show.
And um, you know, like I said, you guys have been requesting me to do something a little bit more personal about my background, my experience, uh, one of my cases.
So what I figured I'd do, I'll just kind of take you guys from the beginning, go back in time and uh talk about uh how I got the job, how I got involved with the job, um, what it was like every day and uh go from there, man.

Uh Super Chat.com.
All right.
We'll give you guys a better link right now.
Sorry about that.
Sorry about that, guys.
Uh yeah, Mo, when you do, just let me know.
So anyway, okay.
So uh let's start from the beginning, guys.
We're gonna go back in time here.
Okay, we're gonna go back to a uh a different uh decade.
Okay, so it's 2010.
Okay.
And uh, well, actually, more along the lines of 2009, right?
So 2009, and I am a sophomore at Northeastern University in Boston, Massachusetts.
And um I was a criminal justice major, and I was a walk-on the walk on for the Northeastern men's rowing team.
And um I always knew I wanted to do um federal law enforcement, uh, whether it be the FBI or um, you know, DEA, ATF, I knew I wanted to do something with the feds.
And I remember um my school, Northeastern has a uh something called a co-op program, guys, which is actually why I think it's such a good school, is it has something called the co-op program, which allows you to kind of work for so you basically do a semester where you take classes, then you do another semester where you're in work, like you're working in your field, right?
And Northeastern has some of the best job placement um in the country.
It was uh and it's a five-year school because of this co-op program.
So um after your sophomore year, right, once you get into what you call your middler year, your third year, you can start to do something called co-op where you can um, at least when I went to school there, you can start to go ahead and start working uh for six months or for a semester after you do your co-op, you go back to classes, then after you do classes, then you go back on co-op again and so on, right?
You could do up to two to three co-ops.
And this is really good for landing you a job, right?
So think of it as like uh internship program built into the actual curriculum at Northeastern University, right?
So at the time, Immigration and Customs Enforcement Office of Inspect uh Office of Investigations, aka, what is now called Homeland Security Investigations, uh, was seeking interns, right?
They wanted, I think six or seven for the Washington DC field office and then two for the Boston field office, right?
Um and I remember um going uh and applying, right?
And funny story.
So I go and I apply, right?
And I remember we have practice like Christmas break, excuse me, like Christmas right around Christmas break or early January when we get back to school, right?
I think it was January.
We get back to school, right?
Because you have Christmas break, and then we had to train during our Christmas break.
They gave us a whole training program.
Then we came back in January.
Because for rowing guys, the winter is actually very important where you build the endurance and the fitness for the spring season to race.
If you don't train hard during the winter, you're not gonna be able to race well in the spring.
Because when the spring hits, you're doing 2,000 meter races, et cetera.
So we come back in January and we did a training exercise where we hit a punching bag, okay, a heavy bag.
And it's funny now that I've like trained boxing, how stupid I was for doing this.
Um I hit the bag and like my pinky like kind of slipped off, and I broke my hand, guys.
Uh broke my my right hand pinky, right?
I broke it because it was like numb and it hurt for a couple of days.
So I go to the freaking uh uh the hospital, I go to Boston General, right?
And um at the time our school had a deal with the pediatric portion, right?
So if you're an athlete and you had to go see a doctor, you would actually go to the pediatrician side um to get any type of work done or whatever, right?
Because I was an athlete, so I was covered.
And they did a they did a um they did an X-ray and they found that my pinky was broken.
I was like, oh my God.
And they're like, you gotta wear a cast for a month uh for six weeks.
And I was like, what?
I gotta practice.
What are you talking about?
And um they're like, no, you know, doctors orders you gotta go ahead and you gotta put your hand in the cast.
Now, what makes this funny is since it was the pediatric doctor I got a cast, but the only thing that they kind of had was like a bunch of kid casts.
So that like clouds and dinosaurs and like all this kid stuff, right?
So I'm like, oh my God.
So I was like, all right, screw it, give me the dinosaurs.
So I had a bunch of dinosaurs on my cast, right?
Like you freaking kids.
I'm walking around at like uh 20 years old, right?
Old as hell with a freaking dinosaur cast on, right?
It gets better.
So as you guys know, I had applied for the co-op with HSI, right?
So I go to the job interview with a fucking dinosaur cast on.
Yes, I should you know.
I went to the fucking job interview with a dinosaur cast on, guys.
I wore a suit and had a dinosaur cast.
So that definitely created, you know, rose some uh uh uh, you know, arose some questions, right?
So I'm sitting there in my interview, right?
And I'll never forget it was um two special agents interviewing me.
Well, it was one special agent, like a regular guy, right?
Like a what I would call like a third GS 13, right?
Which is like they carry cases and still, you know, do that type of thing.
Then it was a supervisor, which is a 14, and then I think it was an ASAC, okay, which is a uh a 15, right?
So think of it as agent, first line supervisor, then a second line supervisor, right?
Or also known as uh supervisory special agent or assistant special agent in charge, right?
That's what the acronym stands for.
So they asked me about it, and I tell them, yeah, I broke my hand, you know.
They asked me about uh, you know, how I broke my hand.
Hey, I was I play sports, etc.
blah, blah, blah.
Um, and then uh I was a rower, and then obviously, right?
They looked at my resume.
I spoke Arabic conversationally.
Excuse me, guys.
It's cold here in Miami.
I speak Airbnb conversationally, et cetera.
So I didn't think I got the job, guys, be honest with y'all.
Like, I was like, yeah, there's no way they're hiring me.
Like, you know, because at the time, the people that I interviewed, like that I competed with, I only had a 3.3 GPA at the time.
And the kids that I competed with, a lot of them had fours.
A lot of them were really bright, really smart.
I was like, man, I don't know if I'm gonna get this.
I showed up on a freaking dinosaur cast, etc.
But then I get an email, and they say, hey, you've been accepted.
And it was like life-changing event, guys.
Life changing.
I was like, holy crap.
So um, so I get the internship, right?
And uh, and I start interning out of the Boston field office, right?
So let's fast forward now to my middler year.
This is now around 2010 slash 11.
Because I did the interview in February of 2010, and then I started.
Actually, you know what?
I did the interview of February 10.
I got the job, I did all my paperwork on my background check.
I EOD'd on July 6th, 2010.
Never forget that.
July 6th, 2010 was my EOD with the United States government with Homeland Screen Investigations, right?
And I EOD'd as an intern, which I think was a job series like 1899 or some shit like that.
You know, matter of fact, let me look it up.
Uh and let me see here.
I think the link should be fixed, by the way, guys.
Fnf super chat.com.
If you guys want to go ahead.
Uh and I see Ralph here.
Uh five bucks.
Thanks for your service, Myron.
Happy holidays.
Okay, so the link should be working now, guys.
Uh FNF Super Chat.com.
Uh yeah, right, Mo?
That's the link.
Okay.
And it works.
Okay.
Sorry, guys.
We had issues with this crap like before.
So it was pinned in the chat.
It's pinned in the chat.
All right.
So yeah, y'all should be able to get in there.
Click, click the link in the that's pinned in the chat, guys, and then you'll be able to super chat in.
That's that's what it is.
Yeah.
Okay.
So yeah, click the link in the chat and you'll be good.
Uh pinned at the top.
So um, so I get the job, right?
Um, and I start my first um co-op uh portion in the summer, July 6th, 2010.
Right.
Um, and at the time I went to the Boston field office.
And let's just go ahead, we'll go ahead and put some uh put a little bit more visuals to this story, right?
By the way, this is what it looks like, guys, when you come in.
So, right, you go to the chat right here.
You're watching the show, click this link, boom, it brings you right here, and then you can go ahead and get involved and uh donate, which we I appreciate.
Anything that you would donate.
But anyway, let's go back here.
So I interned right here, guys.
This is where I started it all.
Right.
I go 10.
See, I fucking remember the address.
10 Causeway Street, Boston, Massachusetts, right?
This is the federal building, right?
That I started everything.
All right.
And I remember I would take the train here.
Oh my god, this has changed.
Wow.
Holy wow, okay.
Okay, so right here is like the train station used to be.
What the hell is all this though?
Where's they knocked down TD Garden?
What the fuck?
What is all this?
Bruh.
Yo, Mo.
Okay.
Never, never mind.
Uh so here's the North Station, right?
There's a there's a station here.
I used to take the train in every day from the orange.
Yo, did they knock down TD Garden, bro?
T D Garden.
Yeah.
In Boston?
I know you still keep up with the NBA, but did the Celtics move?
No.
Okay.
So they still play here.
It's still at the garden.
Okay, they switched.
Okay, yeah, okay.
This is okay.
So, yo, they changed it.
Wow.
It didn't used to be this nice.
They renovated that joint.
Okay.
Yeah.
All right.
Either way.
So yeah.
So I used to take North Station guys from from uh from Northeastern.
I used to take uh the T, right?
Which is called the train in Boston.
And I'll take it.
I'd get off and then I walk through this little thing here.
And I remember I walked through.
Since I was an employee, I would walk around the back.
But the main entrance for regular people, right?
For regular people coming in is right here, right?
And uh ICE, I think is on the like seventh floor.
Okay, let me see here.
Let's see if I if they're still there.
HSI Boston.
Oh yeah, 10 Causeway Street.
Yep, still there.
Okay.
722.
So right.
Um so I started here, right?
HSI Boston.
And um, and I did that first summer there, and I was in a national security group, guys.
And in the national security group, what we went after primarily was um visa overstays that had national security implications, right?
Maybe they were from a weird country, maybe they we found out that they were tied to some people that we might not necessarily want them to be tied with, etc.
So that was how I started was I was in a national security group, right?
Uh slash visa compliance group.
Um because a lot of people come to the United States and overstay their visas, right?
And then also um we uh had a um a presence with the FBI Joint Terrorism Task Force as well.
A couple of our agents in this group were in the JTTF, right?
So I did a couple of operations with the FBI as well when I uh that first summer that I was there.
So I did my first internship, and then I uh came back later and I did another internship with the Heida group, which was the drug trafficking group, and then I did another internship with the human trafficking group, right?
So I did three co-ops total while I was in Boston with HSI Boston and um and I was in college.
And then after I graduated college, right, and remember, I'm doing these co-ops six months at a time.
And the human trafficking group was the last group that I did my internship with, and I told you guys that story of how I was writing my final paper, and on April 15, 2013, which was pretty much uh when I was trying to submit my paper, what happened?
We had the Boston Marathon bombing, right?
And I talk about that in one of my other episodes.
If you guys want the detail, I was writing a paper, and yeah.
So after I graduated college, guys, I went home back to Connecticut for six months, right?
Pending an academy date.
At the time, the government was shutting down all the time.
This is now we're in 2013, right?
Obama was still in office, I think.
Um, and um the government was always shutting down, so they couldn't have an academy date because they hadn't HSI had not hired for years at this point, right?
So they're able to get together an academy date, and I went to the academy February 2014.
But prior to that, because I graduated school in 2013, I spent six months at the New Haven field office, okay, um, as an intern there.
And that's where I converted from intern to special agent.
I intern, uh I became a special agent September 13th, 2013.
So July 6th, 2010, I became, I was an intern.
Then September 13th, 2013, I converted my from I officially became a special agent and converted to there, right?
I was getting leap and all that crap, right?
So I was working and everything else.
I didn't have my gun yet because I was uh waiting for the academy.
So fast forward to 2014 February, I go down to Brunswick, Georgia, okay.
And your boy is here, okay.
I went right here, Fletze.
All right.
Which is the um the federal law enforcement training center, okay.
Uh and uh hold on, we'll click some of these pictures, which is out there in the middle of nowhere in Brunswick.
Oh, this is all this is all new stuff right here.
They didn't have this when I was there.
Oh, yeah, this is all new.
Wow, they really upgraded the gym, god damn.
Okay.
Yeah, what the fuck is this?
Whatever.
Zahar Jalali.
Yeah, they probably that's not that's not a real picture.
But yeah, anyway, this is if uh this is uh Fletsi guys, right?
So every law enforcement agency, except for DEA FBI, and U.S. Postal Inspection Service goes through Fletsi and Border Patrol has their own academy in in New Mexico, right?
So everyone goes to um to Fletsi uh to to train, right?
And whether it's for CBP, whether you're gonna be a special agent, you're gonna be a uh, you know, a CBP officer, border patrol agent, whatever it may be, you're you're gonna go to Fletsi to train, right?
And it's located in Glencoe, Georgia.
And then there's others one.
So Artesian, New Mexico, that's where who the fuck?
This is where border patrol goes.
Uh Shetlam, Maryland.
I think this is where the U.S. Postal Inspection Service goes, National Capital Capital Train Region training operations.
I don't know who goes there.
Um but Glencoe is where everybody goes, man.
Brunsway, Glencoe, Georgia, same thing.
That's where everyone goes, right?
For the feds.
ATF, IRS, HSI, Secret Service, U.S. Marshall Service, they all go to uh Brunswick.
So I'm there for six months, guys.
So from February 2014 to August 2014, I was at Fletsi.
And let me tell y'all something, bro.
That was one of the most miserable experiences of my life.
It fucking sucked.
It really sucked, man.
Um and the reason why I sucked was because, you know, it was kind of paramilitary.
So you were waking up every day, you go to Chow Hall, you know, you'd go to you go to class, right?
You'd learn about federal law, then you'd go shoot for like hours on end.
Then you would uh do um use of force, then you would do handcuffing, then you would do more um law stuff, right?
One one would be maybe um fourth amendment, another one would be criminal law, and then you would do, then we did like a whole thing where you would um uh do a mock case, uh teach you how to write reports.
It was very extensive, very, very extensive.
It's six months in there, and uh pretty much from seven all the way till about five or six p.m. you were 7 a.m. to 5 p.m.
You were working the whole time and again the training, and that was every day, Monday through Friday.
Um, I was getting my agent salary at that point.
Um, but uh, but yeah, man, it sucked.
Uh and you lived on base, you couldn't, you had to live on base, it was mandatory.
Um, so yeah.
So I was there.
I left August 24th, 2014, one of the happiest days of my life, by the way.
I was like, thank God, get me the fuck up out of here.
And I went and I went uh to my first duty location in Laredo, Texas, guys, okay.
Um just so you guys could see here, some of y'all might be wondering, Myron, where the fuck is Laredo, Texas?
I will show you my friends.
All right.
And I will never take these four years back.
This was a great time of my life.
Yeah, I didn't do anything.
I was very uh bored and well, not bored, because I was always working.
I was always busy.
But this is Laredo, Texas, right here, guys, right?
Um, it's literally right on the Mexican border.
Opening maps.
All right, it's in Webb County, Texas.
And if I zoom out, y'all can see it's right here where this red is, right?
And it's right across from Nueva Laredo.
Now, this place is super fucking dangerous, Nueva Laredo, bro.
This is uh home base for the Losetas, or now I think they call themselves Cartel del Noreste, right?
Um, and this is where I spent from 24 to 28 years old.
And this is where I started my career.
This is what this made me become a man, actually, to be honest with y'all.
Uh, you know, I was living on a freaking mattress on the floor.
I mean, I was making good money.
I was made, I started like making, I was making like 70K, 60K somewhere around there.
Uh my first year or two here.
Which, and it's not that expensive to live here.
So I was I was doing fine.
But you know, I was living way below my means.
I had a TV, like on the floor, I had a mattress on the floor.
I was just chilling, you know, wasn't getting chicks like that.
There weren't that many hot girls here to begin with, to be honest with y'all.
There was like no bitches here.
I'm gonna be all the way at Dazzle with y'all.
Um Mexico has some of the, sorry, um uh Texas in general, South Texas has some of the fattest people in America.
So anyway, and then you're you got Interstate Highway 35, but this was a busy place, guys.
I was working all the time, man.
Um, and our our headquarters here was 109 Shiloh Drive.
Right.
This was uh the main building, right?
Uh the where uh I was headquartered.
Now, I personally didn't sit at this building.
I actually sat at an office, which I'm not gonna show you guys.
Um, but this is the official, you know, address.
But I sat at another building.
Um, because um, you know, we have we had at the time we have like uh when I was there, we had around 60 to 70 agents, but we can hold up to 100.
This is a big field office for HSI, is um Laredo, Texas, because you're right on the border, right?
Um, and when you're on the border, guys, HSI basically, and I could go over this real quick.
Um, let's go ahead and go to their website real fast.
What HSI does, okay?
Some of y'all might be like, what is what is HSI, bro?
What are you talking about?
What the fuck are you talking about, Myron?
All right, we'll go to the wiki because it's easier.
Right.
So you got immigration customs enforcement, right?
And then you also got um HSI underneath ice, right?
So it's a federal law enforcement agency under the Department of Homeland Security, it's stated missing to protect the United States from cross-border crime and illegal immigration that threaten national security and public safety.
Um, so it's executed through the enforcement of more than 500 federal statutes and focuses on customs violations, immigration enforcement, preventing terrorism, combating the illegal movement of people and goods.
So basically, guys, anything that has an international nexus, we could touch, right?
Um, and uh little fun fact, HSI actually has more uh has enforces more statutes than even FBI.
We have the broadest authority in the United States government.
Um, and then you also have ERO.
So we're not gonna talk about ERO guys because ERO is the other half of ICE.
Um, and they deal with the remove removal of um of undocumented aliens from the United States.
That's what they specifically deal with.
They only deal with the immigration portion.
They don't deal with no criminal investigations.
Okay.
Um HSI, well, they do criminal investigations only if it's like you know an illegal re-entry, small stuff like that.
But in general, it's HSI that is the primary of criminal investigatorslash special agents.
So ERO enforcement removal operations, they um are, and this is what their badge looks like.
It says ICE and an officer, and then Homeland Security Investigation says special agent.
Uh ICE deals with immigration side, HSI deals with immigration customs, everything, and they deal with the more criminal stuff.
So to give you an example, um ICE ERO might do something like, hey, this guy's been deported before, eight eight USC 1326, which is an illegal re-entry.
That's technically a crime.
ERO might do something like that, whereas like HSI will do if you got like visa fraud, um, passport fraud, any of that other stuff, we're gonna deal with that because that's gonna be a little bit more complex, right?
Especially when you're talking about criminal organizations, et cetera.
Um, but if it's just a simple reentry, you've been deported before and you're back, you roll will take a lot of those because it's not worth our time, right?
So um, but those are the two umbrellas that um HSI under.
So anyway, uh let me let me see.
Let me take a break here for chats real fast before we get into this.
Let's see here.
Hey guys, a link works now if you want to donate to the show.
Uh we got here, okay.
Um CGM goes, hey Myron, sorry to get off topic, but tips for bulking up.
I've been in the gym for four years, four to five years with little results.
I eat in a calorie surplus, have high tea, get plenty of sleep, but it's hard for me to gain muscle.
5'5, 145 pounds, 22 years old.
Uh, that means you're not in eating in a calorie surplus like you think, bro.
If you're not gaining weight, then you simply aren't eating in a calorie surplus.
So then you need to eat more than you think you need to.
You might have a faster metabolism than you think.
You might be miscalculating your calories, but um, it's very simple when it comes to calories because it's just not you know, calories in versus calories out and uh putting yourself in a surplus.
If you put yourself on a surplus, you're gonna gain weight.
So just make sure you put yourself, you know, three to five hundred.
So I would say if you're not gaining weight, bump yourself up another 200 calories and go from there.
Uh Taj the Beast goes, what's your opinion on sponsoring yourself through the police academy?
How much of a percentage would you say I gain of being hired by a department?
P.S. Shout out Big Mo.
What's good?
Uh yeah, uh that that's really uh rare though, you sponsoring yourself through a police department, because that tells me that you probably live in a rural area where like police departments might not have the money to put you through an academy.
So you sponsor yourself and then try to uh you know get your police certification.
You could do that if you want.
Um, but you know, just make sure that you're gonna pass the background check and everything else like that.
So nothing wrong with that.
Um, but that's not very common.
You probably live on a boonie somewhere, bro.
Uh, we got here, Who's Mans goes subscribed?
Sub guys, I'm gonna try to get into the callin' show next time to talk about my cousin who is a massive simp.
He went on a date, blacked out, got his ass beat by two guys, his date ended up leaving with those two guys.
Wow.
Shout out to F and F and the L Dingleberries.
Bro, I mean, if your cousin isn't RP aware from that, then uh I don't know what to say, bro.
That's an L man.
Holy wow.
Oh, wow.
Oh shit.
That is um, hold on, do I got a sound effect for that one?
Well, yeah.
Damn.
Um, Nura goes, I became a U.S. citizen a few months ago uh and have my naturalization certificate, but I haven't applied for the U.S. passport.
I'm currently in my home country and need to return to the US.
Can I use my naturalization certificate to enter?
How it works.
Uh yeah, you can.
You can use your natural, I mean, they don't like that, but you can.
Um, it's frowned upon, but you definitely can because they can't deny you entry in the United States if you are a uh U.S. citizen.
I I've seen, I remember when I was at the border um in Laredo and people would be crossing in every day.
Some people would bring their birth certificate and give that to the um to the CBP officer.
So yeah, your naturalization certificate will work to enter.
Um, but they just won't like that.
This might take you a little bit longer.
They're probably gonna have to do some records checks and everything else like that and make sure that it's really you, but um, it will work.
Um, just try to get your passport, bro, because you're it's gonna be very cumbersome for you uh to do that every single time.
And and they're gonna you're you're not gonna make the CPP officers happy.
So um, because you just want to get it done and get out of there.
Um, and then let's see here, uh look at some of these rumble rants.
Shout out to all you ninjas, by the way, that are um supporting the show.
Like I said before, we are demonetized, so we really appreciate the love.
Uh let me see here.
Let me not let me make sure that we give love to our ninjas over here.
And we got uh we got two thousand, uh, we got about almost a thousand of y'all watching over on Rumble and then another 1100 or so on YouTube.
Uh someone said Myron doesn't know how to bulk he overtrains.
Uh no, my friend, I do know how to bulk.
I actually got fat on purpose.
I gained, I went up like 50 uh pounds overweight.
So I don't overtrain my friend.
There's no such thing as overtraining.
You it's very difficult to do that.
Um, you have to really put yourself into the pain cave to overtrain.
It's not as easy as you guys think it is.
You can overreach, but overtraining, nah, man.
Um, I won't show the thing.
God damn it.
I don't know why the chats aren't showing on Rumble Rans.
Anyway, excuse me.
So where were we?
Okay.
So I was in Laredo, Texas, right?
And um, and I was in the and I was in a so when I get to Laredo, Texas, right?
My first duty uh duty station, well, my it was my first duty station, but my first group that I get assigned to was called the human trafficking slash human smuggling group.
Okay.
And uh what that's like, guys, is what you would call a duty response group.
Now you're probably wondering, Myron, what the hell is a duty response group?
So when you're on the border, guys, okay, there's constantly cases going on.
They're trying to smuggle legal A lands in, they're trying to smuggle drugs in, they're trying to smuggle money out, they're trying to smuggle guns out.
So there's always stuff going on because, like I said before, HSI is the premier agency that deals with anything that has an international nexus, right?
So you're constantly getting uh calls for different types of things.
At the time when I was there in the Laredo, we had 10 groups.
We had a three human smuggling groups.
Yes, I said it, three human smuggling groups.
We had like three drug groups, we had a border enforcement security task force, so that's seven.
We had a commercial fraud group, that's eight.
We had a child pornography group, that's nine.
And then we had a money group, right?
Financial crimes group, which was 10, right?
Each group of agents, sorry, each group has about six to ten agents and one group supervisor.
Okay.
When I got there in 2014, they were severely understaffed.
We had maybe 60 agents, right?
So you had 10 groups, 60 agents.
Each group had maybe four to five guys, Right.
And then like the bigger response groups, they would have maybe seven to ten.
Right.
So my group, when I got there, we had like seven to ten guys, right?
And I was in human smoking group two.
I'll never forget group two, right?
Uh, which was uh a kind of a legendary group.
Um, Jaime Zapata, rest in peace to him, was actually in that group uh at one point.
So when I got there, guys, right, and I was uh and I was in a human small group, it was the busiest group in the office.
It was the busiest group in the busiest office in the busiest AOR.
Now you're probably whoa, Myra, what the fuck are you talking about with these acronyms?
Okay.
So, real quick, so you guys understand.
So San Antonio is the main field office location, right?
You call it SAC San Antonio.
That main office has several satellite offices within it.
Okay.
So there's San Antonio, there's Laredo, there's McCallan, there's Harlogin, Brownsville, uh Del Rio, etc.
All these little towns, and I'll show you real quick here on the board on the border.
Right.
Share screen with y'all real fast, right?
Because I I think it's better if I show you than just like.
So you open a maps, right?
So all these towns from here, basically.
So here's San Antonio right here, right?
You got Uvalde, we had an office there.
Um, you had Del Rio, um Carrizo Springs, right?
Laredo, and then you go down all the way here into the valley area, Zapata, um, Rio Gran City, um, Reynosa, which this is right here, McCallan, right?
McCallan's pretty nice, actually.
Probably one of the nicer border towns.
Um, Brownsville, all this, right?
All of this was under the HSI San Antonio field office, right?
Or like the the it was under their AOR or air of responsibility, right?
And then you had smaller field offices in between.
So Laredo, so San Antonio is the biggest sack, it's the most is the busiest sack in the country.
I think Puerto Rico is number two.
San Antonio has the most arrests, most seizures, etc.
Right.
The busiest office in San Antonio was Laredo.
And the busiest group in Laredo was group two, which is where your boy Myron was at, right?
So I was in the busiest group in the busiest office in the busiest goddamn AOR, right?
So um, so what a day in the life was for me, right, guys, when I was there was I'll wake up, right?
A lot of the times, like 10 or 11 in the morning, right?
Maybe nine, not nine, ten in the morning.
I'd get to the office by 10 or 11, maybe around lunchtime, right?
And, you know, I'd be writing reports.
I'd be if someone needed help with something, whether it was another group they were going to do it or an arrest, right?
The child pornography group used to call me all the time because they were doing search warrants and arrests all the time, man.
It's it's actually kind of scary how often the child pornography group was out.
They were out arresting people every day, doing search warrants every day.
There's a lot of freaking pedophiles out there, man.
It is crazy.
Um, and and this is it with any age I office that you go to in the country, they're always busy, which tells you that there's a real problem with these fucking predators.
But I digress.
So, you know, maybe one day I could walk in and the child pornography group was doing a search warrant.
They'd want me to help them out.
You know, I'd call my supervisor.
Hey, CP group needs help.
Uh I was gonna go help them.
Yeah, yeah, go for it, you know.
Because the only thing with my with your soup is you just want to let them know where you're at, right?
Um, God forbid you get in a shooting or you do anything, then he knows where you're at, right?
And you can let upper management know.
So um, but the job has a lot of freedom.
You get a take home car, you could come and leave when you want, right?
Just get your work done, et cetera.
You'll be fine.
Um, so uh, so I'd get into the office, right?
Somewhere between 10 to 12, uh, write reports, whatever, get some Chipotle with the bros, chat it up, right?
A lot of the agents that I worked with were younger guys, because everyone starts their career on the southwest border most of the time when you come in with HSI.
You're gonna start, whether if it's in Texas, Arizona, New Mexico, Southern California, you're typically gonna start your career on the border somewhere with HSI.
And I think that's actually better because you get a lot of fucking experience.
So that when they do transfer you to an interior field office, like a Miami, like I did, or to a New York City, et cetera, you're gonna be fine, you're gonna be able to hit the ground running because you know everything, right?
You already know how to write reports, you know how to deal with informants, you know all that crap because you already did It on the border, right?
So and I told you guys before that I was in a duty response group, right?
And what that basically means, guys, is since you're on the border, you're on call and they're gonna absolutely call you.
Why?
Well, because you got customs of border protection there and you got border patrol in force.
We're talking about thousands of border patrol agents, thousands of border patrol officers, uh customs of border protection officers.
And just so you guys understand, border patrol, green uniform, customs border protection, blue uniform, right?
Border patrol is you know dealing with all the areas that people shouldn't be coming into the United States through, all right?
And then border uh customs border protections blue uniform, they're dealing with all the ports that you should be coming through.
So whether you're crossing a bridge into the United States from Mexico or you're coming in through an airport and you're giving your passport, your passport to be admitted into the United States, blue uniform, good green uniform, you're trying to sneak in, they're gonna arrest you.
So uh, so you guys get the idea, right?
So anytime border patrol would catch a smuggler with 10 aliens or you know, with a couple of uh undocumented aliens, they would call HSI.
It was a mandate that they would call HSI to come in and further the investigation because every human smuggling situation uh or human trafficking always is tied to a criminal organization.
It's by no mistake that people come to the United States and unable to be smuggled in, guys.
There are sophisticated smuggling networks that allow these migrants to enter the United States, and um there's there's facilitators at every step of the road, right?
So going back to the map here, right?
And I'll give you an example, right?
Let's say someone wants to come to the United States illegally, right?
What they'll do a lot of the times is let's say they're from Guatemala, right?
And they want to come here or anywhere else in South America, right?
What they'll do is they'll pay money to a local smuggler in their area, all right?
And I'm gonna explain to you guys exactly this is how human smuggling works for most situations, regardless of the country that you're coming from.
So let's say I'm an illegal alien in Guatemala and I want to come to the United States, right?
So I'm gonna have a local smuggler in my area that has a Mexican connect.
I'm gonna call him and say, yo, I want to go to the United States.
How do I get there?
All right, cool.
Let me call my Mexican people, make arrangements for you, right?
And get you into Mexico so that you can go ahead and get into the United States.
So you pay that guy a couple thousand dollars, right?
He successfully smuggles you into Mexico, and then you go into your next leg of the trip, right?
A big staging area is Mexico City.
Holy.
A lot of the smugglers are based in Mexico City.
Why?
Because what they'll do is they'll receive all the migrants from other countries here, whether it's freaking uh Guatemala, Honduras, hell, even like China, because they be coming in from China all the time, right?
They'll fly over, a lot of times they'll fly over right into Mexico City, right?
So once they get to Mexico City, now they're in the second part of the trip where that guy will hold them there.
They they come up until they come up with the money, they'll be staged there for a couple of weeks or whatever, and then they'll move them to maybe like a San Luis Potosi, right here, right?
And then from here, they'll wait another few weeks and then they'll be moved north, right?
Maybe they might make one more stop along the way, but typically then they're gonna be moved to a border town, whether it's Nueva Laredo, Piedras Negres, and then uh Negras, uh, Negres, whatever the fuck, uh Reynosa, Matamoros.
And the reason why is because there's a big border on the other side here, okay?
Because you um, it's whether it's Laredo, McCallan, Harlogen, Brownsville, etc., right?
It depends on the smuggling organization.
But the point is is that they're smuggling the aliens into Mexico, they stage in Mexico, then they get them to the border.
Now, when they get to the border, guys, this is the most important part.
They stash them as stash houses right on the river or right on the border, right?
And typically they'll wait until it's clear and they'll be like, all right, we're gonna move 10 across, 20 across, 50 across, whatever may be, right?
And they'll move them at night, and uh they'll be typically a car waiting for them on the other side.
So as soon as they cross the into the United States, now it's go time.
They got to freaking get in a vehicle and get out of the brush immediately, or they'll walk to a stash house.
And the reason why is because they need to get them into the stash house so they don't get caught by border patrol.
Because now it's starting to get hot, right?
Once they enter the United States.
They enter, they wait at the stash house, and then once they're at the stash house, this is the most critical moment because while they're in the stash house, they're the most vulnerable, right?
Someone could snitch.
I remember I raided a bunch of stash houses.
We have a hundred plus of them in there, etc.
So they want to get these guys out of there as soon as possible.
But at the same time, they need to be paid because the sash house operator in Laredo in Rio Gran City and Zapata, McAllen, whatever, they're taking a lot of risk allowing these guys to stay there.
And one of the clues a lot of times we would know is a stash house was uh you look at the when you go to do surveillance, you would see a lot of trash and their stuff because they got to feed these guys.
If you see a lot of trash or whatever, and you're like, what the fuck?
Only two people are supposed to live at this address, but you see that there's like constantly throwing trash.
There's a bunch of food, all this other crap, you know that they got a bunch of aliens there because they got to feed them, right?
That's evidence.
So anyway, um they uh so that they have them here staged, and then a lot of times they pay their last portion, their last five, 10k, whatever it may be cost, and then they get smuggled to San Antonio.
All right.
San Antonio is the main hub where a lot of these illegal aliens go.
And then from San Antonio, as you guys can see, you got Interstate Highway 10, you got interstate highway 35.
You could go anywhere in the United States, excuse me.
You can go anywhere in the United States from here, right?
Because interstate highway 10, guys, takes you all the way to Jacksonville, right?
Or it could take you all the way to Los Angeles, right?
Interstate highway 10, right?
Or you could go uh north and south, right?
Interstate highway 35, right?
Takes you all the way to I think it takes you to freaking somewhere here in the Midwest.
Uh damn it.
I lost the highway.
All right, here's 35 right here.
It takes you all the way to Minneapolis.
All right, Duluth, which is pretty much, yeah, right there on the Canadian border.
Right.
Yeah, so it takes you right here to Denfield, Lincoln Park.
so i'm pretty sure this is canada right here Yeah.
So yeah, it'll get you all the way up to Canada, pretty much, right?
Or right on the border, so to speak.
So the point is, guys, is that uh this is a very lucrative business.
It's a very uh structured business, it's a very big business, okay?
And it's and it involves many people.
Anytime you're smuggled illegal aliens, we're talking about seven, eight, nine legs of the trip and different people uh involved in this criminal organization to make this shit happen because it is very labor intensive, guys, to move illegal aliens, extremely labor intensive.
You gotta feed them, you gotta move them, you gotta house them, et cetera.
Okay.
So, but it's very lucrative.
You make a lot of money.
And if you're arrested for it, you don't do as much time as having drugs, right?
So I say all that to say this.
Um, we would get calls all the time, guys.
All right.
Um we get calls all the time when people were uh get caught by border patrol, and we would go ahead and we would respond.
So if border patrol catches somebody, right?
So, like I'll give you guys an example here.
So I told y'all that I was in Laredo, right?
So let's go ahead and put Laredo, South, Border Patrol.
Right?
So this right here is the border patrol station, right?
That I would respond to all the time.
This is the most busy border patrol station in uh in Laredo, right?
So I I remember vividly it'd be like two or three in the morning, my ass would be driving here from home, come in, and then they'd have like, you know, 20, 50 illegal aliens and like one driver, aka the principal, or two drivers, right?
There'd be U.S. citizens, they were the ones driving the guys, and a lot of times they were driving them to or from a stash house and they got caught by border patrol, right?
Border patrol did a traffic stop, caught them, and then they arrest them and then they bring them in here, and then I come in and I follow up with the investigation.
And then I interview the bit the guy.
Hey, where are these aliens supposed to go?
They're supposed to go to San Antonio, etc.
And they'd be like, okay, uh, you know, they'd confess, or maybe they'd cooperate, and then I'd arrest them and I'd take them to court the next day.
Uh, or I'd take them to the Webb County jail, right?
I would take them here.
Man, this brings back a lot of memories.
Webb County jail.
Bring them right here.
Right?
I'd come in through this this area right here.
So, So yeah, I'd come in.
Uh I'd make a turn right here.
Drop them off here.
I'd come, I'd park my car right here.
You gotta you gotta say who you are, blah, blah, blah.
You bring your car in, and then you you drop them off here at the jail.
This is actual jail.
Right.
And then when it was time to um for court, I'd take them here.
And they the marshals we had an agreement with the marshals or the marshals would bring the prisoners over for us.
So Laredo, federal courthouse.
Yeah, this is a courthouse.
Oh man, this brings back memories.
Woo.
Holy.
All right.
Uh let me see here.
So this is a federal courthouse in Laredo.
Right.
See, it's really nice.
Federal courthouse is always nice.
But it's in the fucking hood, as y'all can see here.
Oh god damn, man.
Right.
And and it's funny because this is like right next to the border.
So yeah, I would I remember I'll always park my car right here.
I'll put the placard up so they don't give me a ticket.
I park it right here.
Every time, man.
Come in, park that joint right here, right?
And then I walk around.
I'd take this path right here and walk around the front.
And then I would uh and then I would enter in the side because I uh right here.
There's an entrance right here.
Right.
And just to give you guys an idea, look at this shit.
Look at look at this, man.
So that's a federal courthouse, right?
Taking y'all on a trip through Laredo, Texas, right?
That's where I spent a good portion of my adult life.
All right, we're going, we're going down the street here, right?
This is gonna take you to the main road.
All right.
So you know the federal courthouse is all the way down the street there.
Y'all want to see how fucking close Mexico is?
Look at this.
This is the bridges, right?
To go to Mexico.
You go down this street right here.
You go down this street right here.
Oh, yeah, Casa de Cambio.
These are money laundering fucking areas right here.
These guys, these types of things.
I remember this sign right here.
Illegal to carry farms and ammunition in Mexico, penalty prison by Mexican law.
So they tell they put this there so that people know, like, yo, you better not bring no goddamn guns across, even though it's one of the most violent places.
And then bam, here is where the bridge is.
That's how close we are to the Mexican border, bro.
This is not even a mile, guys.
Not even a fucking mile.
Right.
So this, you know, and I've made this mistake where I'm like, oh shit, I'm in the wrong lane.
I'm not trying to go to Mexico, and I gotta like fucking turn off and shit.
Because what I really meant to do was go down this street right here, right?
So you come around this street right here, and then you can see here, here's the bridge, right?
And then bam.
Uh is a little gate right here.
And there's Mexico right there, my friends.
There's the bridge right there, right?
This bridge right here.
Oh no, keep going.
What the fuck?
But y'all can see it.
This is all Mexico right here.
Literally, you cross over the river, and that's all Mexico.
That's how close it was, guys.
Could throw a rock over that bitch.
Right.
And you're right here.
Um, but that's how close the federal courthouse was.
Right.
So I would drop the guy off at the federal courthouse after I'd go for his initial appearance, and um, and that's how it would go, guys.
That's how the duty calls would go.
Um, and you're on call, I was on call every third day.
Someone in my group was on call.
So the way it worked was so there was three human smuggling groups.
You'd be on duty, right?
Your group would be on duty for 24 hours, and then it would switch to the next group, then it'll switch to the next group.
So every other day, your group was on duty.
And the reason why Um, it was a big deal, is because, like I told y'all before, they'll catch 10, 11, 12 aliens, whatever, and there'd be multiple times they'd catch multiple cases in it one day.
So let's say your buddy, right?
Let's say Tom in your group is on duty, he's the one that's actually getting called.
He goes to deal with a case at the Laredo border border patrol station south.
There might be another case in Abrinville, which is an hour away.
You got to go deal with that while he's at the station dealing with that one, and then you're gonna go probably take that case, right?
So every, even though only one person's on duty technically via phone, the whole group's on duty because you it's very labor intensive to investigate these cases because you got to go there.
There's 10 people you got to interview.
You need other agents to help you do each interview, and then you got to go through extensively with each alien.
Hey, what's your name?
Where are you from?
Where do you come from?
How much did you pay to come to the United States?
How much did you pay the smuggler?
Uh, tell us your trip, how you came from such or such country to here.
You got to get this with each and every single person, right?
And get their story.
And the reason why you got to get their story is that they're gonna go ahead and uh let you know who the who the um the principal was, the driver.
And you'll give them a photo array.
Hey, who's the driver?
A lot of the times it's the fucking guy that was there in the station with them.
Yeah, this is him to identify him.
You take two of them as material witnesses, right?
And then uh, you know, you do your case.
And you would do this every day, man.
So you were getting these bag and tech, what we call bag and tag cases where you know, border patrol or customs or whatever are calling you, and you uh, you know, you go ahead and you deal with it.
Um, and that's what I did for four years on on the on the Mexican border, guys, when I in my human smuggling human trafficking group.
Um now, with that said, I had my duty cases, right?
Where I was on call and I'd help handle those.
Then I also had what I what you call proactive cases, where I was actively investigating on my own, where I had informants, I had um a drug investigation, et cetera.
Even though I was in the human trafficking human smuggling group, I still did drug and gun cases, right?
I got uh pretty much I got um special permission from my office, because even though I was a human smuggling human trafficking group, I should have been just focusing on that.
Um I was just a go-getter.
So they were like, nah, man, you do whatever you want.
Like you're out here like fucking, you know, uh killing it.
Like, you know, you go ahead, you could do drug cases.
Um, so I was like the only agent in the uh in the emigration groups that had uh Title 21, what's called Title 21 authority, and Title 21 is uh is the drug uh the drug statutes federally.
So um, so I did I did uh drug cases um as a guy in a is a in a human smuggling group.
So um that's what the day in the life was like when I was there, man.
Um, but every day was different.
One day I could be uh debriefing an informant, dealing with a duty case, helping out the child porn group with arresting someone or doing a search warrant.
Um I could be driving to San Antonio to get a search warrant.
It was really um, it was really fun, man.
It was really fun, really interesting, man.
Even just thinking about it right now, it makes me uh reminisce and it was it was great.
It was so much fucking fun.
Uh and and it doesn't take much to make me happy, man, as you guys know.
You know, and I think um I it's not about what you have, it's about how little does it take to make you happy.
I think that's a true sign of being satisfied.
You know, if it takes a lot for you to be happy, like you, you know, you might want to reassess yourself, right?
Um, because you're never gonna have everything.
So you might as well learn to be happy with with little.
Uh I was sleeping on a fucking mattress, making 70k a year, 50k a year, right?
But like my first couple years.
Um, and I was happy as fuck.
I didn't start making six figures, guys, until I my last year in Laredo, I didn't make six figures until around 2018, 2017.
So it was a lot of fun.
Let me see here if I could hit some of these chats if you guys got any questions.
Um happy New Year's crew.
And that's from Ken Rose.
Thank you so much.
That's why I figured I'd do this episode for you guys, right?
Give you guys a little insight as to what it was like.
Um, all right, so I'll hit the Stream Labs.
Let's see here what you guys got.
And then we got to get going for this IRL stream here pretty soon.
Uh okay.
Uh we got um the last one I did here.
Okay, we got um, sorry guys, I was just reading through.
Kanawi goes, watch your Fed video, Vid.
I was interested in applying to a three-letter agency.
Apparently, the feds have methods to entice young Muslims to incriminate themselves for T activity.
HV, have you seen or experienced this?
Also, what's the best path for cybersecurity?
Um bro, just don't be a terrorist.
You'll be fine.
Uh, do you have to take a polygraph when you applied to HSI?
And what did you think about it?
It's uh David effectiveness.
So when I got hired by HSI, you didn't have to do polygraphs.
Um, and there's a long story for that.
If you want me to explain it, you know, give me ones in the chat.
Uh, but uh, but now they do.
Now they do.
So but when I come on, I didn't have to.
Um Kanawi goes, watch your Fed Videos interesting.
Oh, nope, got that one.
You asked twice.
Um, Mass Archive goes, great content, FNF.
I recently got promoted to GS11 thinking about the feasibility of transferring for civil service to law enforcement.
Do they have any student loan repayment options?
Sent this on Rumble.
Um, I don't know if they do now.
I know that there's uh student loan forgiveness program where if you make on time payments for 10 years, um uh you can get your loan repaid uh that way.
Uh you need 365, 360 qualifying payments, which should equate to yeah, 10 years, if I'm not mistaken.
Um, and you they'll wipe off the rest of your debt.
But you gotta do the math.
It might not make sense because like you know, if you do the 10 years and you're still like in debt, or is or sorry, you uh if you do the 10 years and you that would have paid it off, then it might not make sense to do it that way.
It might be better to just pay it off and not pay the interest.
Does that make sense?
So you have to have a certain amount of debt for it to actually be worth it.
Um then uh Ralph goes, hey Myron, what non-degree federal law enforcement agencies would you recommend to join?
Um if you want to be a special agent, most of them are gonna want a degree.
Uh but um but yeah, but non-degree, I would say you're probably gonna have to go ahead and go with uh um a uniform position, which you know, border patrol, cousins water protection board border customs and border protection officer or border patrol, those are all fantastic segues in.
Um when is the Friday after hours dinner vid coming out?
How's your day going?
And that's from Whitler.
Uh yo, I sorry about that, guys.
We didn't have so what ended up happening.
We're supposed to do an IRL stream with you guys, as you know, on uh on last uh on Friday.
We couldn't do it, guys, because we didn't have uh a certain battery to power the camera, right?
We had a dummy battery, but we couldn't plug it in.
So we didn't have like the um the disposable camera uh batteries that you could put on the side.
So sorry about that.
That's what ended up happening there.
Hey Martin, have you ever interviewed ex special uh Mexican special force soldier?
There's a Mexican YouTuber by the name is Gaffay432 who would have some good stories.
Okay, and that's from Fernando, and then Jay Garcia goes, ATF fumble operation Fast and Feroz.
They absolutely did, I'll tell y'all that.
And I will do Fast and Furious on here, don't worry.
Um Falcon Punch goes, why don't Mexicans go to Canada if they can enter Canada without a visa instead of the USA and many citizens of the Caribbean and Latin America have good passports to enter Europe, United Kingdom, Japan, Grand New Zealand, etc.
without visa.
That's a good question, bro.
I don't know why they don't.
Um I mean, there's clearly Mexicans in Canada, but they have to get the United States first.
So if they're gonna drive at least.
So that's why.
Um, Bill's Mo, what are we looking like?
We gotta leave now.
Russia.
Uh we're good as far as the stream.
We gotta leave.
Okay, so the IRL backpack is good.
Yeah, I don't know about it.
Guys, we will be doing the IRL stream.
We can do it.
Okay.
All right.
I'm talking about Bills and Mo right now, guys.
Uh, we're gonna be doing an IRL stream.
They came and set up the backpack that we got.
Um you guys want to say what's up to the people?
Oh, yeah.
Oh, yeah, we gotta show them to give a grand net right there.
It's on the other chair.
What?
The right data controller right there?
Yes.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
So show them off stream.
Yeah, these guys got me a uh, these guys got me a uh Xbox controller, as y'all can see here.
With the American flag and shit like that.
So I appreciate that.
Because this is the controller I was using.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Oh, there's a controller I was using before, right?
Playing this.
So now, damn Mo.
You know, Mo big, bro.
Yeah, nigga, big as hell, man.
Fresh just called me.
So yeah, I think we're gonna have to call kill the stream here in a second.
Uh Yeah, we gotta get out of here.
I was able to fit in that tight spot though.
Yeah, show them that control.
Yo, I'll come.
Yeah, pretty nice, man.
It has these things.
But just so y'all know, I I've been practicing mouse and keyboard.
So they got me this controller.
I'm like, wait, how am I gonna use this?
Because it's like later.
I know you're still gonna use it though, bro.
Because you're gonna get out frustrated and be like, man, hold on.
Let me get this controller.
Probably, yeah.
So um, so yeah.
W Fed React.
Yeah.
But yeah, guys, I guess I'll have to do a part two on this story about my experiences in Miami Field Office.
But that summarizes uh my journey in Laredo.
Uh but yeah, man.
I I I appreciate you guys tuning in.
Um, next week, what I'll do is I'll finish up part two of what's it like to be a special agent in the Miami Phil office, and then uh I'll answer your questions as well.
Um, I'll do a whole QA portion and uh and then we'll cover uh some serial killer stuff with Angie.
So yeah.
Someone said uh Myron's an Xbox guy.
Hey man, I'm I'm uh Xbox guy.
Yeah, but um I'm gonna go to mouse and keyboard, bro, very soon.
Um and then we got here last one, the engineer.
This is the engineer child from Fridays calling.
Just wants to pop in and say thank you for everything before I go for a run.
Thanks for everything, man.
You're the best.
Thank you so much so much, my friend.
I'm glad that you're going for a run before New Year's.
Um, guys, I love y'all.
I'm gonna dip out.
Um, hope you guys enjoyed this episode of Fed Reacts.
A little bit more intimate, Paul.
You know, just us.
Hopefully, I'm gonna have this thing more decorated and finished.
Um, but you know, not bad.
This is a new studio and everything else like that.
I'll do an Instagram video too and show you guys what it looks like in here.
Um, and also we're gonna be streaming Overwatch soon.
Uh, don't worry.
I hell, I might even do it tonight.
I just gotta figure out how I'm gonna do it though, because Bill's got to set up Streamlabs for me on here so uh so that I can actually do it because I think if I do it on Stream Yard, it's gonna lag, right?
No, we gotta do it on the share screen.
Streamlabs, right?
Because that's specifically made for gaming anyway, so that it doesn't lag and all that weirdo shit.
Yeah, because if I try to stream screen share with you guys because I tested already, it looks weird when I uh share screen playing games.
Yeah, so um, but you guys will you guys will be able to see uh me um uh destroy some scrubs.
Oh chat was that couple last chats.
Uh oh, I'm clicking right now on on Rumble.
Uh JC Van goes, hey bro, when are you breaking up your rope?
Uh breaking uh the down or Europa.
Please break it down on Rumble, God bless you.
Uh and what and watch the uh I'll think about it, bro.
Because that that documentary, I don't even think it's on Rumble anymore.
And watch the name of the song, the one before this.
And then someone said Nick Kirk said, I I I got in here late.

He's facing accusations.

Man, you know it's capped.
It is happy New Year's crew.
That's Ken Rose, yeah.
Man, they be capping, bro.
Chris Jericho ain't assaulting none of these hoes, man.
Put that bitch in the walls of Jericho.
The wrestling community already forgave.
