| Sedition is defined specifically in U.S. law as a federal crime involving conspiracy to overthrow or destroy by force the government of the United States or to oppose by force the authority thereof or by force to prevent, hinder, or delay the execution of any law of the United States. | ||
| Seditious conspiracy is a specific crime that requires two or more persons conspiring to use force against the U.S. government or its laws. | ||
| Our laws are clear. | ||
| You can refuse illegal orders. | ||

You can refuse illegal orders. | |
| You must refuse illegal orders. | ||

|
No one has to carry out orders that violate the law or our Constitution. | |
| We know this is hard and that it's a difficult time to be a public servant. | ||
| But whether you're serving in the CIA, the Army, our Navy, the Air Force, your vigilance is critical. | ||
| And know that we have your back. | ||
| Because now, more than ever, the American people need you. | ||
| Of course, absent from the Declaration, any specifics as to what those illegal orders actually are. | ||
|
unidentified
|
And the question you have to ask yourself is: what is their intent? | |
| What is the reason that they all went on a video and encouraged young men and women to defy court orders without even giving a hint of what's illegal, without even giving any suggestion of what law or what order they're being asked to violate? | ||
|
unidentified
|
To be clear, we are not calling on folks right now to debate, to disobey any type of unlawful order. | |
| Have you, Congresswoman, or any other of these Democratic members of Congress, heard directly from members of the U.S. military or the broader national security community who believe they've been given unlawful orders? | ||
| Well, you know, what I'd say is I have heard from service members, and I have heard from service members, and this is all a matter of public record. | ||
| What we see is an uptick of concern from the men and women who are serving in uniform about the legality of orders that are being given. | ||
|
unidentified
|
They would be violating their if they followed illegal orders. | |
| And I guess, Senator, members of the military, what is your advice to them if they come across something that seems confusing? | ||
| I think they need to talk to their leadership, you know, talk to their commanding officer about it and tell your commanding officer why you think this may be illegal. | ||
| There are lawyers within the military, the Judge Advocate General Corps. | ||
| You can have a conversation, you know, with somebody who understands the law. | ||
| And, you know, there's always the option of you review the UCMJ with your leadership and you explain to somebody why you think this may not be lawful. | ||
| After widespread discontent over unpaid wages, lack of food, and clothing erupted into open revolt, yes, George Washington, as commander-in-chief during the Revolutionary War, authorized the execution of his own soldiers for sedition in 1781. | ||
| However, no one in U.S. history has ever been executed by hanging or any other means solely for sedition or seditious conspiracy under federal law. | ||
| Historical cases involving the executions of John Brown in 1859, Mary Surratt in 1865, and William Bruce Mumford in 1862 were prosecuted under different charges like treason or martial law violations. | ||
| Neither the 1798 or 1918 sedition acts, the 1940 Smith Act, nor the current federal seditious conspiracy statute, 18 U.S. Code 2384, has ever carried the death penalty. | ||
| The current maximum penalty for seditious conspiracy is 20 years in prison. | ||
| And that is what needs to be pursued without fail, or there is no executive office of the United States going forward. | ||
| Throughout American history, six presidents have presided over the federal prosecution and imprisonment of individuals for sedition or seditious conspiracy. | ||
| John Adams, Abraham Lincoln, Woodrow Wilson, Franklin Roosevelt, George W. Bush, and Joe Biden, whose Justice Department convicted at least 18 oath keepers and proud boy leaders for their roles in January 6th, the most extensive use of the seditious conspiracy statute since World War II. | ||
| And then there is the turbo sedition waged against President Trump for the past decade. | ||
| The FBI's Russia Gate investigation was branded a seditious conspiracy. | ||
| Lieutenant Colonel Alexander Vinman was denounced as a traitor. | ||
| The January 6th House Committee was accused of engaging in seditious conspiracy and treason. | ||
| FISA Judge James Boesberg's actions. | ||
| All right, and welcome to the InfoWars Sunday briefing. | ||
| I'm Nick Sorter, actually in D.C. for once. | ||
| That doesn't happen very often, usually on the road. | ||
| But this time I am in the swamp. | ||
| Don't know how many days that's going to last because there are some, let's just say, some Border Patrol and ICE actions taking place across the country right now. | ||
| And there'll be a couple of new cities coming up this week that will finally get a deluge of Border Patrol officers stepping up enforcement in those particular areas because luckily we don't have tens of thousands of illegals attempting to cross the border every single day. | ||
| So we've been able to take those resources and move them to places like Charlotte, North Carolina and New Orleans. | ||
| And there'll be places in Mississippi as well coming up here in a few days. | ||
| But in the meantime, you guys just watched a clip of Marjorie Taylor Greene before the show started here of her announcing her resignation. | ||
| And we're going to have that and more talk about that, get into that, and then other events for the week. | ||
| But once again, I have on the show with me Kevin Smith from Loud Majority Live. | ||
| Kevin, what's going on, man? | ||
| Hey, man, thanks so much for having me. | ||
| Yeah, I appreciate you jumping on. | ||
| I love the shirt, by the way. | ||
| That's freaking awesome. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| It is not a Miller leg shirt, just in case anyone out there is working with copyright lawyers. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| But, you know, the MTG resignation, that actually, it kind of caught me off guard. | ||
| Earlier in the day on Friday, which is, you know, the day that she announced, it was a few hours before that. | ||
| I was thinking in my head, like, okay, you know, how many, how many days are we going to count down until Trump and MTG come back together? | ||
| Because at the end of the day, they're on the same side. | ||
| They're on the same side. | ||
| They just disagree about approaches to various situations. | ||
| But as MTG said, like she was, you know, one of his earliest supporters, she put millions of dollars behind President Trump when he was running for election. | ||
| And she traveled the country campaigning for him. | ||
| Like, I don't see her as necessarily the enemy here. | ||
| I think she's just saying some hard truths to me. | ||
| But, you know, what do you think, Kevin? | ||
| Well, look, you know, firstly, I think that anyone who says, I'm not stopping the fight, but I'm quitting is very confusing to me. | ||
| Just in general, like, look, we all know that President Trump gets very, very mad at people, and then suddenly he's not anymore. | ||
| You saw the Elon bout they had a few months ago, and now they're, you know, having cocktails with Cristiano Ronaldo. | ||
| So, you know, they go back and forth like that. | ||
| But look, Marjorie Taylor Greene is right. | ||
| She has been a huge supporter of the president's agenda on a great many issues. | ||
| But on some of the big ones, I think that she has fallen short, whether it's her backing of Kevin McCarthy in the Matt Gates saga two years ago, or whether it is some of the bigger policies. | ||
| Look, I agree with her on 95% of the stuff. | ||
| So I'm not going to take a shot at her. | ||
| But what I will say is that you got to be able to take criticism from the base when you do wrong. | ||
| And, you know, right now, she said that we need illegal immigrants to man her construction jobs. | ||
| I don't think we need that. | ||
| I think we need to pay Americans more instead of importing slaves from the third world. | ||
| So, but there's going to be disagreements. | ||
| I don't think we as a movement, as we've seen the fracturing over the course of the last several months, if we're going to continue to win, we have to be that big tent party. | ||
| And we can't cast people aside because they do one or two things incorrectly. | ||
| Yeah, I totally agree with you. | ||
| You have some great points there as to where she went wrong. | ||
| You mentioned the fact that she is resigning. | ||
| I believe the effective date is January 5th of 2026. | ||
| So, you know, just very convenient year. | ||
| Very convenient day. | ||
| Why is that? | ||
| Well, that's two days after her pension kicks in. | ||
| Yeah, so I was going to address that actually because I looked into this and realized how much a congressional pension actually is. | ||
| And she can't collect on it until she's 62. | ||
| And it's $720 a month. | ||
| And she's like in her early 50s. | ||
| So it's going to be quite a while before she gets that $720 a month. | ||
| The way the pensions work, it's like 1% per year of her salary every year times five because she was there for five years. | ||
| And so that's how you get that $70. | ||
| Okay, I guess that's done. | ||
| I guess that's a little bit of a look. | ||
| Hey, everybody knows somebody that hangs around two or three years longer at their job just to get their pensions. | ||
| I'm not mad at her about that. | ||
| I mean, you just described every, you just described basically every, basically every, you know, 59-year-old cop on planet Earth, you know, who hangs around for one extra year. | ||
| But look, as you're, as you're showing right there, I'm actually in that video with Marjorie Taylor Greene outside of the courthouse in Lower Manhattan. | ||
| Look, she's been a great fighter for the America First Movement. | ||
| The problem with it is that the only way to stay and fight is to stay and fight. | ||
| You know, we have people talking about her, you know, running for governor. | ||
| People are talking about her running for president now. | ||
| And there's been rumors she's telling AIDS she's going to run for president. | ||
| I don't, I don't know if that's the best choice for her. | ||
| Obviously, she's in a swing state, so it's going to be incredibly important. | ||
| But look, if we're going to be that big tent party, oh, look, there I am. | ||
| If we're going to be that big tent party, we need to relax with the oath of loyalty on everything, on every topic. | ||
| Yeah, I totally agree with you. | ||
| I think it's the easy thing to do is to quit, right? | ||
| I mean, the amount of stress that was put on prominent conservatives after Charlie Kirk was shot and killed was, you know, it takes you aback and you're like, oh my gosh, you know, maybe I'm just, maybe this is just too much. | ||
| Maybe, maybe, maybe I should just quit. | ||
| I heard several people tell me behind the big names behind the scenes that said that exact same thing. | ||
| Now, I'm way too autistic to think like that. | ||
| So I was just like, whatever. | ||
| But I was very disappointed to see when she said she quit because it's like, okay, well, now what? | ||
| I mean, you're saying all these things need to be done. | ||
| Well, you could have been that effective voice inside the government continuing to speak against what you see is broken in Congress, but instead you pull yourself out of it. | ||
| And I can't imagine she's going to be more effective as a private citizen. | ||
| So I don't know. | ||
| I mean, look, what? | ||
| I mean, look, she's not going to, her personality. | ||
| This was a hell of a look at this on the screen right here. | ||
| This was a legendary moment. | ||
| I could have looked down at any other point in time and been just fine. | ||
| But, you know, it's a, but look, she's not going to fade off into the sunset. | ||
| What's she going to do? | ||
| Is she going to take over for Scott Jennings on CNN? | ||
| Is she going to be the Republican voice on the view? | ||
| Like, what does she think that her role is going to be as a private citizen? | ||
| As you said, she's young enough that she can basically write her own ticket and do whatever she wants. | ||
| The question's going to be: what is that? | ||
| Will she remain that sort of strong fighter? | ||
| Hey, maybe she'll start a podcast like, you know, everyone else on earth. | ||
| But, you know, it's, it's, I'm curious to see what she, because she has been good. | ||
| When she's been good, she's been good. | ||
| And I think when she's been bad, she's been bad. | ||
| But we have to, I really think that the division in the new right, whatever you want to call this sort of eclectic group of people over here, we need to breathe and relax. | ||
| If not, the midterms are going to be, the midterms will be rough. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yep. | |
| And it's only a year away, folks. | ||
| I mean, everybody talks about, oh, we got three years to do all this. | ||
| No, in reality, we have one year. | ||
| If we don't secure the elections within a year, I mean, may as well just give up Congress. | ||
| Like, we're screwed. | ||
| So, absolutely. | ||
| And the impeachments will start. | ||
| The nonsense investigations will start. | ||
| Everyone and their mother, including the two people on the screen right now, will probably be called to testify, which, like, please subpoena me. | ||
| I'm begging you. | ||
| Let's put on a show. | ||
| If anyone's listening in Congress, subpoena me. | ||
| Let's put on a show. | ||
| But I'd rather govern than just make a mockery of the house. | ||
| Absolutely agree. | ||
| Well, we got a Democrat in Florida. | ||
| So $5 million from FEMA, apparently. | ||
| We're going to have all about that right after the break here on InfoWars Sunday briefing. | ||
|
unidentified
|
All right. | |
| Well, it's turning out unsurprising to pretty much anyone that FEMA is almost as bad as USAID. | ||
| Now, we had heard reports last year that FEMA response teams were told not to go to houses to check on people that had Trump signs in their front yard. | ||
| And hell, I've dealt with FEMA on the ground multiple times. | ||
| It's like my entire platform over the past three years was having to expose FEMA for their just gross incompetence and their corruption. | ||
| Like in East Palestine, Ohio, after the train derailment on Maui, where people were just told to go screw themselves in Western North Carolina, where they were trying to block us from delivering aid to victims. | ||
| I mean, it doesn't have the best track record. | ||
| And it turns out that Democrats were using FEMA as their piggy bank. | ||
| You had Democrat Congresswoman Sheila. | ||
| Why can I never pronounce their freaking names, Kevin? | ||
| It's always something complicated and it's hyphenated. | ||
| Sheila Cherfilis McCormick, a Democrat from Florida, another DEI Democrat, was just charged by the Department of Justice for stealing $5 million in FEMA funds meant for disaster relief. | ||
| If she is convicted, she faces 53 years in federal prison. | ||
| Kevin, I mean, is this a shock to anybody at all? | ||
| I feel like a story like this was bound to come out sooner than later. | ||
| And look, absolutely. | ||
| It is shocking that people cannot see the incompetence of FEMA, even if there weren't nefarious actions involved. | ||
| And this isn't nothing new. | ||
| You mentioned all the most recent incidents, but anybody here in the Northeast who dealt with FEMA during Hurricane Sandy, I'm talking about the South Shore of Long Island and Hope Oaken, New Jersey. | ||
| Anybody who remembers SEMA during Hurricane Katrina, when it took them six days to get water to the superdome, like it turns out this body may have started out with a good purpose, but it just doesn't work at all. | ||
| And now we're seeing the abuse and the fraud inside of this system. | ||
| And it turns out when it when any government entity, I don't care what it is, whether it's USAID, whether it's FEMA, whether it's basically the entire non-profit establishment, whenever these sorts of things get to be too big, they turn into rackets. | ||
| And now we're just seeing that another member of Congress, shockingly a Florida Democrat, I actually didn't know that there was any of those. | ||
| Hopefully Governor DeSantis can rectify that. | ||
| But, you know, I'm not shocked by it at all. | ||
| And I'm not shocked that, oh, you know, nothing to see here. | ||
| It's. | ||
| Even these people think that they're owed some sort of no-show million-dollar gig for their, for their illustrious ability to be uh, put into Congress. | ||
| Yeah, of course, and uh she uh, it looks like here she is blaming you know what. | ||
| Maybe we'll just roll the video here. | ||
| Let's do that, let's roll clip uh, I don't know if this is four or five, but uh, the one with her walking up to the cameras and giving a reason as to why she, I guess, is entitled to five million dollars in Fema disaster rate. | ||
| Go ahead and roll that clip, guys. | ||
|
unidentified
|
On the indictment, please. | |
| Well, it's an unjust indictment and it seems like these intimidation tactics have been pervasive. | ||
| We spent all week seeing different members getting censured, all in hopes of intimidating and kind of distracting from the Epstein files, and I look forward to my day in tour so I can prove myself and actually state the truth. | ||
| But if this is what Congress is becoming, where they're always trying to intimidate you, scare tactics, especially attacking minorities, black and brown people then we're going to have to keep fighting for the district and everybody has been giving me so much support and we're going to keep fighting until the district gets what it needs, which is fair prices, housing and fair representation. | ||
|
unidentified
|
But did you improperly use the Game of Thrones? | |
| What's your response to the calls from some of your colleagues to step down or resign? | ||
| They didn't elect me. | ||
| It was my district. | ||
| And so we'll keep fighting for the people and keep working like we're doing now until they get what they need. | ||
| So we're here for the people. | ||
| So the only people who elected me should have make that decision. | ||
| Thank you so much. | ||
| Thank you all. | ||
| Right, so it looks like uh, so is there a threshold? | ||
| Maybe that I saw. | ||
| Is there a certain amount of money that you're allowed to steal from FEMA if you are black or brown? | ||
| Is that? | ||
| What is that what i'm hearing here? | ||
| I you know it's so funny. | ||
| People always laugh that Congress is usually about five or ten years behind the times. | ||
| So watching her go, oh, if I just say black and brown, nobody will care. | ||
| And it's like no, we're actually laughing at young, like we're going. | ||
| Oh really, what is that? | ||
| The Corrine Jean-pierre uh, mode of getting out of a tough question. | ||
| Just say black and brown people? | ||
| Um no black brown, immigrant lesbian. | ||
| I think that's what uh, I think that's what Karene Jean-pierre used. | ||
| Oh yes, I was gonna say she had the ultimate like power card there to throw down. | ||
| Thank god she's not in a wheelchair, or she'd, she would win the Oppression Olympics, like you know, it is just, it is. | ||
| It is wild that they still think that this sort Thing works. | ||
| And maybe it does in her district. | ||
| Maybe it does. | ||
| Maybe the people in her district don't really care that she's going to be a felon for robbing FEMA of its funds. | ||
| Now, of money that was supposed to go to people in her district. | ||
| Those were disaster funds meant for her district. | ||
| Well, that's what's going to have to be shown to the members of her district because she's clearly not going to resign. | ||
| And you know what? | ||
| Here's the thing: Democrats never resign in shame. | ||
| Republicans always lay in the corner and scream, please stop hitting me. | ||
| And you know, whether it's Jerry Nadler, who quite literally doesn't believe in the American dollar so much that he had to get bribed with gold bars, like this woman robbed her constituents of money that should have gone to go rebuild their homes after hurricanes. | ||
| And somehow she will still get her party's endorsement. | ||
| She will still probably get re-elected unless DeSantis changes the district lines. | ||
| It's stuff like this, man. | ||
| It's stuff like this that we have to focus on. | ||
| The corruption on both sides in the House of Representatives. | ||
| Yeah, so I'm not exactly sure where the demographic makeup of the district, but looking at a map here, it looks like she's got the west side of Broward County, which is the Fort Lauderdale area, and then west of Palm, the western part of Palm Beach County as well. | ||
| So, but looking at how she's got the western, if she's got the western part of Palm Beach County, then stealing $5 million, that's like, that's like Tuesday for those people. | ||
| But with most Democrats, the sad part is, if she ran again, if she's not behind bars, I don't know if you can run from behind bars. | ||
| I'm not sure. | ||
| I don't know if that's been tested quite yet. | ||
| But even if she were to do so, being a Democrat, she'd still probably win. | ||
| That's the sad part about it. | ||
| Absolutely. | ||
| You know, it is, it is. | ||
| I'm looking at the map right now. | ||
| What is that? | ||
| That's Broward, Palm Beach. | ||
| Yeah, no. | ||
| It is, I'm pretty sure you can run from behind jail, from behind bars, by the way. | ||
| Let's hope that this case actually moves forward in some sort of a speedy manner so that, you know, unless they just want to hang this over her head while she's running for the midterms. | ||
| But look, when we talked about draining the swamp, this is the kind of stuff we were talking about. | ||
| It was the fact that people feel disillusioned by politics because inherently you know, and inherently I know that nothing's going to happen to this woman. | ||
| What's it going to be an oversight hearing that we'll cut clips of that'll go viral on Twitter? | ||
| And that'll be about it. | ||
| Nothing's going to happen. | ||
| I've been thinking about it, though. | ||
| She's been indicted in the southern district of Florida, I believe. | ||
| So that is a favorable district. | ||
| That's a favorable district for it's not like up here in the DMV region, the DC, Maryland, Virginia area, where when you indict Democrats, it's very tough because they just Democrats can do no wrong in the people's eyes up here. | ||
| But in South Florida, she might have a little bit harder of a time getting away with this one. | ||
| And it's going to be interesting to see how this all works out. | ||
| And because you've been seeing up here in Virginia with James Comey, you know, the way that they've been trying to just taint that case as much or make it look illegitimate and they'll end up getting all they need is one juror to nullify the conviction or to, in reality, just hang up the case and have a mistrial declared. | ||
| I mean, they can really do a lot of damage up here. | ||
| I have a little bit more hope in the southern district of Florida. | ||
| I'd really love to be able to find a way to charge more people down in the Southern District of Florida. | ||
| But yeah, we'll see how this goes. | ||
| We'll keep on it. | ||
| And she should be removed. | ||
| She should be expelled from the House of Representatives. | ||
| And I don't know what we're waiting for. | ||
| George Santos wasn't convicted when he was removed. | ||
| So we've seen these ice raids and big spectacles happening all over the country. | ||
| One of the biggest ones recently that we saw was in New York City a few weeks back where, Kevin, you don't live too far outside of New York City. | ||
| So this is something you probably know right about. | ||
| I was with you, I guess, last weekend in New York City, and you were telling me all about this stuff. | ||
| The guy that looked like he OD'd right in front of you and nobody really reacted. | ||
| Like the police just didn't seem very concerned about it because you're like, yeah, it's like, that's probably the 15th time they've seen it today. | ||
| It seems like you have a lot of these problems out there. | ||
| But Canal Street, something that's been famous for a long time for being like bootleg illegal goods being sold by illegals. | ||
| And then ICE went through there a few weeks back and cleared it all out. | ||
| It was major news. | ||
| Nobody had ever seen Canal Street as clean and clear as it was a few days after ICE went in there and arrested a bunch of the people, some of the folks that were known to have been violent, that were open about the fact that they were illegals, known to have been violent, and they ended up being arrested too, which was really entertaining to watch. | ||
| But Savannah Hernandez went back there this weekend with Turning Point USA. | ||
| Savannah is like one of the best on-the-ground reporters ever. | ||
| I freaking love her. | ||
| And she showed that they're just back at it. | ||
| They're back in action. | ||
| They set back up. | ||
| It's crowder than it was before ICE even went through there. | ||
| What's going on, man? | ||
| Why can't we keep this down? | ||
| Why not just send ICE back in there? | ||
| Just keep clearing it. | ||
| I would love it if they did that. | ||
| And look, for those of you who aren't familiar with New York, Canal Street has always been a spot where you go to get your four-striped Adidas and your fake Louis Vuitton bags. | ||
| It's famous for that. | ||
| But it's a little different now because with the influx of the illegals, now you have criminal gangs roaming the streets that are not allowing people to either walk the streets or, as you saw, Nick Shirley and his cameraman get assaulted a couple of weeks ago. | ||
| There is a sort of like a crew element to it. | ||
| And I think that's that is so much different. | ||
| Look, there's always going to be neighborhoods where you can pick up, you know, fake coach bags and stuff like that. | ||
| That's always going to be a thing. | ||
| This is different because these items that are being sold on the street are being stolen from the street next door because you can steal with impunity in New York City. | ||
| So what these organized criminal gangs do is they go knock over Sac 5th Avenue or Nordstrom Rack. | ||
| They take all the good stuff and then they bring it down to Canal Street and they sell it for cash. | ||
| It is a serious problem. | ||
| It is unsafe. | ||
| And it's really because of the work of people like you and Nick Shirley and Savannah going out and getting this footage that the entire world can see what we've been dealing with here in Lower Manhattan for decades at this point. | ||
| Yeah, and we talked about that FEMA money and what FEMA has actually been used for and that it's corrupt and sort of rotten to the core at this point. | ||
| FEMA money, billions and billions and billions of dollars were spent housing in five-star hotels, these same illegals that are now being arrested and cleared out by ICE that are going and robbing these stores nearby, stealing purses and luxury goods and stuff. | ||
| They're the ones that we are still to this day paying to house up there. | ||
| Well, I say we, luckily not me, because I don't live in New York. | ||
| You, on the other hand, you do. | ||
| So you're paying for it. | ||
| But at the end of the day, our federal dollars are somehow going to end up subsidizing the entire thing anyway. | ||
| Those multiple five-star hotels down there, the Roosevelt Hotel being one of the most famous one that turned into a migrant shelter that was costing us like $300 per night per illegal to house there. | ||
| That came out of FEMA dollars. | ||
| And you know what's wild about it too? | ||
| Is that, you know, so we were talking about healthcare for the last couple of weeks, how Obamacare is just a subsidy to the health insurance companies. | ||
| These illegal immigrants are just a subsidy to the New York hotels. | ||
| And what does that do? | ||
| That drives up the prices of the hotels for tourists. | ||
| And because of that, people don't come to New York for tourism. | ||
| If you're a hotel in New York City, why wouldn't you just get the government contract to house illegal immigrants where you know you're going to be full every single night instead of competing in an open market for the tourism dollars of people? | ||
| And look, New York is always going to be the capital of world tourism, you know, for the most part. | ||
| But people have stopped coming here. | ||
| And because they've stopped coming here, because the hotels are unaffordable, they've stopped spending their dollars. | ||
| They also might be set on fire on the subway, too. | ||
| So, I mean, that's probably another reason people start. | ||
| It turns out in New York, we like to export culture. | ||
| So we started the setting people on fire on the subway regime. | ||
| Now it's moved on to Chicago. | ||
| You know, it's making its way west, everyone. | ||
| So if you have, if you have trains in San Francisco, it's coming to train near you. | ||
| But this sort of scene is not uncommon, except the magnitude of it is so wow. | ||
| There was the Nick Shirley video where one guy said, this is our block. | ||
| That is an arrogance to it. | ||
| Everybody always sold illegal stuff. | ||
| It was always, you know, but you got run out. | ||
| Maybe you came back the next day. | ||
| But now it's like these guys feel like they have like it's their right to hustle on the streets like some street vendor in the third world. | ||
| Well, this is exactly why we're supposed to vet people that come in here. | ||
| Now, quite frankly, I think that, you know, maybe we should only let 1% of people that apply into the country, to be totally honest with you, if that, if even that. | ||
| And the only reason I say that is because I don't want to keep people like Elon Musk out of the picture. | ||
| But so we can bring in somebody like that. | ||
| But it's why we have a vetting system. | ||
| That's why you don't just leave the border wide open. | ||
| Now we've got all of these people that don't know anything but how to steal, how to rob people, how to make their living off of pickpocketing you. | ||
| And people ask, why does it only, this is happening in New York City? | ||
| I don't even go to New York City. | ||
| Who cares? | ||
| Because it's spreading throughout the country. | ||
| That's why you're seeing it in Charlotte, North Carolina. | ||
| Who would have guessed outside of people in Charlotte that these kind of people were moving there in droves to the point where last week, there were two elementary schools where 65% of the children were absent because of Border Patrol's action there. | ||
| Like the amount of illegal foreigners in somewhere like North Carolina, if you're thinking that this stuff is only happening in New York, you're very, very wrong. | ||
| Oh, absolutely. | ||
| And, you know, the major metros, Dallas, Chicago, LA, San Francisco, New York, Miami, are the ones that get all the attention. | ||
| But this is happening in the minor metros. | ||
| And I don't mean minorism less important. | ||
| I mean, just as smaller, you know, Charlotte, Cincinnati, Phoenix, Kansas City. | ||
| These are happening all over the country. | ||
| And look, if you don't want to be caught for a long time, you would go to a lot of these and basically just get to roam free. | ||
| Something like 20% of the city of Charlotte, North Carolina are illegal immigrants. | ||
| They said there were upwards of 150,000 illegal immigrants in the city of Charlotte. | ||
| There's only 900,000 people there. | ||
| It's a metropolitan area, but it's not that big. | ||
| And per reports, it's becoming like the human trafficking capital of the United States, and very quickly at that. | ||
| And that should terrify everybody. | ||
| But you have the self-hating white liberal old women that are screaming and yelling about the fact that literal pedophiles. | ||
| It was that photo. | ||
| I just remember this now, this photo of Border Patrol holding this guy down on the ground. | ||
| He was dressed in an apron because he was a chef or whatever at a restaurant that the week before had just been arrested for like sexual assault on a minor. | ||
| And they're acting like he's some sort of innocent victim. | ||
| So they just gloss over the fact that this guy had, and this wasn't even the first time that he was charged with a crime like this. | ||
| He had a conviction on it as well. | ||
| And you could also see he had a knife in his hand. | ||
| And of course, Border Patrol is going to take him down like that. | ||
| He was gripping a knife like this. | ||
| And the only reason you grip a knife like this is if you're trying to, there's no cooking that involves holding a knife like this. | ||
| I'm just saying. | ||
| Yeah, he's not making a ribeye when he's holding a knife like that. | ||
| It's, you know, but look, I call them the awful, the affluent white female urban liberal, who never have to deal with the consequences of the policies that they put forth. | ||
| They'll go and they'll protest for illegal immigrants, but then make sure that their doorman keeps them far away from the building in which they live. | ||
| You know, the DoorDash guy doesn't get to come up to the door. | ||
| He leaves it in the lobby. | ||
| And that is a lot of the biggest problem: the people who advocate for these things never have to deal with it. | ||
| They never have to, you know, have their 16-year-old kid who's trying to hustle as a busboy have his job be replaced by an illegal immigrant who will work for slave wages. | ||
| They don't have to deal with any, they don't, the subway. | ||
| They would never be on the subway with the peasants. | ||
| No, no, their driver picks them up and brings them from Trump Tower to NBC News. | ||
| Their driver takes them to dinner at the plaza. | ||
| They don't, they're not out here with the rest of us, yet they think that they are our moral betters. | ||
| Right. | ||
| Kevin, we've only got a short time left, but I want to get to this. | ||
| I want to say this real quick. | ||
| So, this little girl I've known for a little while now, Liv Peruto, she is desperately trying to get this is a last-ditch effort for her to be able to survive. | ||
| The doctors are giving her six months to live. | ||
| We need Dr. Pat Soon Xiong to get back to her. | ||
| And we need the FDA to approve Octiva for her. | ||
| They won't do it. | ||
| They'd rather just say, hey, we're going to let her die in six months, which is really sad. | ||
| I mean, she should have the right to try this treatment. | ||
| And there's more of that on my X feed. | ||
| Please share if you can. | ||
| Kevin, thank you so much for being here. | ||
| Really appreciate you. | ||
| Kevin Smith on Twitter, host of Loud Majority Live. | ||
| We'll be back here next week. |
