Good afternoon, everybody.
Joe Kachin for Sean Hannity.
It's Christmas week after all.
Linda let me come back.
It was like three to one odds against that, but here I am.
Because the eight other people she called, I'm sure couldn't make it because they actually had plans and are traveling.
And boy, it's gonna be a great Christmas around here in the Northeast or anywhere for that matter.
I believe if you're in Cleveland on Christmas Eve, for example, there will be 63 mile an hour winds and a real field temperature of minus 13 degrees.
Chicago, same thing.
Here in New York, the low on Christmas night will be ding ding ding zero real feel.
So if you're homeless, find somewhere to go in a hurry because uh I think it's a good thing.
You think so?
Yeah, because they say there's less crime because people are too cold, they don't come out and to commit their crimes.
That's true, right?
So listen, the colder the better.
Stay home, stop committing crime.
They don't call it the winter of love, Linda.
It was the summer of love in 2020.
Yeah, those were uh mostly peaceful riots, right?
That happened.
It's harder to set stuff on fire when it's freezing ice and rain.
That's true.
It puts out the fire.
You're welcome.
I see, this is why it's great that you're here.
And Whoa ho I say you get your own show at some point.
See that?
Forget this producing nonsense.
You you got a lot to offer in this regard, right?
Again, we're doing the Joni and Chachi thing.
We got a chemistry thing, it's going back and forth.
Ping pong, tennis, here we go.
Oh.
I'm gonna be quiet now.
Let you do your mono.
No, I want to go back and forth with you.
Let's make it a conversational mono by all by all reasons.
What should we tr start with?
Should we start with uh title 41 or uh 42?
There's a lot of titles that are going on these days.
And uh let's see.
Or or do we do this omnibus?
Who invented this word by the way?
What is an omnibus exactly?
I think it's hysterical.
I can I cannot tell you how many people have said to me, so what is the omnibus?
I'm like, do you really want to know?
They're like, no.
Right.
Like, okay, great.
It just means the government's screwing you over more.
I thought it was like gum was underneath like the back seat and there was like a bully out to beat me like waiting for my lunch money.
That's not the omnibus, that's another bus.
Okay, very good.
So how big is it?
This thing is something like what?
1,455 pages.
And I believe lawmakers just got this recently and they want it read in 48 hours and a vote to happen on it.
Why does this keep happening, Linda?
Can I can I play a clip that really sort of just encapsulates the reason why?
Yes, you may, because you're the producer after all.
I have no say here.
I'm just here for three hours on now.
Okay.
All right, go ahead, Linda.
It's going to be very, very exciting.
But we have to pass the bill so that you can uh find out what is in it.
Ah, of course.
We pass it, and then after it's law, then we find out what's in it.
See how that works?
That makes total sense.
Okay.
And that was 2010, I believe, right?
Oh my gosh, was it?
Yeah.
I'm very good at these things.
The fact checkers are listening right now, and they will say, wow, Kanchi, it's actually one for one so far.
That's not bad.
So yeah, I mean, we could go through the fun here.
Uh 1.2 million dollars, right?
For L a lot of letters here.
L G B T Q I A Plus.
Not like CNN plus, but L G B T Q I A plus Pride Centers.
1.2 million.
1.2 million for quote services for DACA recipients.
That that's uh other otherwise known as helping illegal aliens with taxpayer funds at San Diego Community College, which I didn't get into somehow, you know.
Maryland, they're like, come on in, San Diego community.
They're like, sorry, not gonna happen.
Uh let's see.
477,000 for the Equity Institute in Rhode Island to indoctrinate teachers with quote anti-racism virtual labs, unquote.
Boy, what we'll love to see what that lab looks like.
We could go on and on here, including 3.6 million for a Michelle Obama trail in Georgia.
Wow, is that like the Appalachian Trail, Linda?
Just curious.
I would say it's slightly different.
Uh-huh.
And uh a lot more expensive.
Yes.
I mean, uh I'm thinking, you know, I I've made trails before.
You know, when I was growing up, like for the for the uh BMX uh bicycle that I had, some friends had among goose, but the point is that we didn't need a couple million dollars for for a trail, but apparently this is a big deal.
Three million dollars for the American LGBTQ plus museum in New York City, $750,000 for the LGBT and gender nonconforming housing in Albany, New York, because that's a hot tourist destination, no question about it.
Uh $2 million for the Great Blacks and Wax Museum in Baltimore, and finally $750,000 for the Translatin Coalition to provide, quote, workforce development programs and supportive services for transgender and gender nonconforming and intersex immigrant women in Los Angeles.
Also, uh it appears that we're giving 400 million dollars uh for border security.
So, you know, that's that's a plus.
It looks like Joe Biden has finally gotten the message.
What was that number again?
400 million dollars for border security.
And you know, Democratic representatives in border states like Texas and Arizona have been saying, please with the president, please come down here, see this crisis that is now a catastrophe at this border with thousands of people coming across per day, and and it could get a heck of a lot worse if Title 42 goes away.
So please, sir, come down here.
We need to start rebuilding the wall again.
We need remain in Mexico, reinstated again.
And Biden finally said he pulled a Clinton basically back in the mid-90s.
He said, You know what?
You're right, I do have to work with the other side, and this is a national security issue because dozens of terrorists have already been caught coming over the U.S. border already.
So I better give up.
Oh, wait a minute.
I didn't see the last part of this.
There was a like coffee on the on this uh on these notes that you gave me here, Linda.
It's 400 million for Jordan's border security, as in not Michael Jordan's house, the country of Jordan.
400 million dollars for third border security.
What about ours?
Is there anything in it for ours, Linda?
And this is a scary part, you know?
Yeah.
This is the scary part.
Is that you're saying this right now, and for many people across the country listening, it's the first time they've heard this.
You're right about that.
Because nobody knows what's in it.
They're spending your money.
You think it's an accident that instead of doing a continuing resolution bill with the Congress that is currently holding office, as opposed to doing that and waiting till January when the Republicans regain control.
This is not an accident.
These people are up, they're like, and McConnell.
I mean, McConnell, there is no worse representative for the Republican Party.
This is my opinion, ladies and gentlemen, my personal opinion for McConnell to stand there taking pictures with Zelensky, talking about how happy he is to give billions of American taxpayer dollars over to this person who's in the middle of a war so serious that Rachel Ray has taken her children's cooking show over to do a live broadcast from Ukraine, and he can be here talking to our congressmen and women.
Why?
They can, right?
Yeah.
Because that's the imagery that we're being sent.
And the think the problem is is that people say if you say anything negative that, you know, you're against um no, no, no.
I am for the people of Ukraine.
I think they are pawns in the activities of those who lead and dictate them.
And I think if you've been given billions of dollars, you should be heating the homes that welcome and and house those children.
Those kids are freezing right now, and you're in America talking to Biden for more billion for what?
Yeah, Russia's bombing uh Ukraine's infrastructure and particularly their ability to heat homes and so on.
Go get take care of those kids.
Take care of those.
I just don't un this is the thing.
I'm telling you, there's a lot of things I can get past, but you mess with kids and puppies, I'm out.
I'm not I'm not a fan.
I don't blame you.
At 4 30 p.m. Eastern time, Linda, uh, the Ukrainian president in Zelensky will be having a news conference.
So as the uh executive producer of this show and hired highest paid person currently within a 50-yard radius, uh, will we be dumping out and taking uh that particular news conference?
I would say we will take the highlight reel.
We'll see if they have anything to say.
That's smart.
You know, I really don't anticipate a lot, you know.
We'll have Joe Biden talking about corn pop and chocolate chaca chip.
Yes.
And we'll have Zelensky saying that he's in dire straits, and that's why he was able to uh leave his war-torn nation.
You think Biden's gonna take questions during this?
Because he he was with Boris Johnson once and said, No, I'm not I'm not gonna.
I think I think if they gave him a piece of paper that says please take questions, he will do that.
That's true.
He is given orders and he follows them.
He's a good side.
Dr. Joe Biden is there to give him a worthers, a question may happen.
Right.
Well, he does poetry for her, apparently.
Did you hear about that?
How nice on the Truman balcony, I believe.
And and we know this because Biden uh did uh a very hard-hitting interview.
And you know what?
You gotta give him credit.
Like, I'm not gonna sit here and bash the guy the entire time.
I know, I know I wrote a book that was very critical of him, but he finally did do an interview, and it was with uh, let's see.
Oh no, it wasn't with uh Brett Bear, and it it wasn't with Jonathan Swan, who I used to work with the Hill with Axios who does some pretty tough interviews.
It was with Drew Barrymore, yes, on the 40th anniversary of E.T. Linda, right?
And she has a talk show apparently.
And they talked about how uh Jill and Joe write poetry for each other, which is remarkable.
I mean before or after they phone home.
Sorry, it was just too easy.
Yes, I had to do it.
I had to do it.
I mean, this is the interview that he did.
And he's done seven total interviews this year on television, and they all had one thing in common.
You want to guess what it is?
I don't know, I don't want to put you on the spot.
All right, because you you know about producing, right?
You could do interviews two ways.
You could do it blank or you could do it blank.
Which way do you think he did it?
Easy or hard.
I would say he did it easy and with a leftist.
Right.
Uh but do you think they were pre-taped or do you think it was live?
Oh my God.
And it can never be live.
Nope.
Absolutely not.
They never are, right?
So even when he did 60 minutes with Scott Pelley.
And remember, he did it after he avail uh they averted the uh rail strike.
And Scott Pelley, one of his uh tough questions was uh you averted a rail strike.
How did you do it?
Right?
Mike Wallace, like that sound you heard is like, oh, there he is, turning over his grave again.
Uh, not to be confused with Chris Walls in any way, but but the point is that 60 minutes is always pre-taped.
It's it's called a package, right?
And then any interview that he has done has been a package.
And that is the one condition that they always insist on because let's say you need a client cleanup on not only aisle five, seven, eleven, fourteen, uh, you could do it in the post-edit where if you're dealing with a friendly news organization, and let's face it, who isn't these days?
They take that out to make Biden look presidential.
So that was even with Drew Barrymore, it had to be a pre-tape in this situation.
I think if we take just a brief look, right, at the few moments that he's gone off script.
Yes.
He actually is like, oh yeah, like when they said what was it, like six months ago, they were talking about the border, and he was like, Yeah, it's terrible.
He's like, we need to do something about that.
And within an hour, they had KJP in the press corps saying, what the president meant to say is let more in, everything is fine, the border is secure.
Yes.
Followed up by testimony from Mayorcus.
KJP being, of course, uh cringe Jean Pierre, right?
Yeah.
Is it Korean or cringe John Pierre?
I haven't heard that yet.
Oh, yeah.
That's been floating around the end.
I'm telling it's somewhere in the internet.
I can't think about it.
Very nice.
All right.
Nothing I say is original.
You have to understand that.
That was well played.
I'm gonna give I'm gonna hat tip you for right now.
Yeah.
Uh that that's what's amazing about all this.
Thank you, Linda.
I appreciate that.
Uh, is that here we have this border, and the president continues not to go despite, as we said, a national security risk.
Fentanyl killing 300 Americans per day.
It would be like you have a plane, right?
I I just flew back from Florida recently.
It was a pretty big plane.
I think it was 767.
There's probably about 300 people on it.
Let's say one of those crashed today.
What happens to the aviation industry?
You shut it down, right?
You say, What's going on?
300 people are dying per day when they don't have to.
That's fentanyl.
And that's what's coming across the border.
And this president who at last check had a son, has a son, uh, who had some abuse problems.
So at least on a personal level, you would think like maybe I should do something about this.
But as you said, he's given a piece of paper, he does what he's told.
When he said when he's told do not go to the border, even when you in that brief moment, you're kind of being honest.
You say, Wow, that that's a bad situation.
I guess I should go back down there is exactly what he said.
He's not gonna do it because he's not in control.
The question is who is in control?
Is it Ron Klain, the chief of staff?
Is it Susan Rice, who I'll take Jerry Rice, Donna Rice, Ray Rice before I take Susan Rice, all right, in any important position.
But here we are.
I that's the thing.
We don't know who's running the country.
How did we get here exactly?
We're passing bills that we don't read.
We got a president who isn't in charge.
Uh we're supposed to be the greatest country in the world, Linda.
What the hell's going on?
So interesting that you made that comment about fentanyl and and the plane crashing every day.
Yeah.
Sarah Carter who'll be on later, she's doing this awesome podcast right now called The Dark Wars.
And you know, one of the things that they talk about is fentanyl is touching everybody, whether we're talking About the 10-month-old who's sitting in a park in San Francisco, or we're talking about a police officer who touches something in a car, slightly inhales this supersonic fentanyl, and they have to revive her with Narcan.
And the DEA and the CDC and the government have all put out statistics in the last year alone that say automobile and gun uh gun deaths combined are less than fentanyl deaths in the United States of America.
Yeah.
And yet we don't care.
And where does it come from?
Hmm.
Let's see.
I know it comes across the city.
Our two besties.
Right, exactly.
Mexico and China.
Comes through Mexico from China.
And it's completely and totally intentional.
You want to talk about, you know, COVID and what that did.
This is another version, except it's the it's a slow drip trip drip as far as chemical warfare on this country.
China knows exactly what it's doing, and it's tearing us apart from within.
No question about it.
Your number, we're taking your calls next.

We talk about the issues that actually matter to the country without panic, without yelling, and with a healthy dose of humor.
We don't take ourselves too seriously, but we do take the truth seriously.
So if you're into common sense, sanity, and some occasional SAS.
You're our kind of people.
Catch new episodes of Normally every Tuesday and Thursday on the iHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you listen.

Last Christmas, I gave you my heart.
The late George Michael.
Somebody's late, you know.
I grew up with Michael Jackson, George Michael in the 80s.
That's him from Wham, actually.
It wasn't the solo stuff, but uh that's a shame that that guy had one hell of a voice.
Anyway, Joe Concha in for Sean Hannity, 800-941 Sean is the number 800-941-7326.
So I'm I'm scratching off all the colleges I can't send my kids to.
Now, granted, they're only seven or nine, so I have a little time for this, but so many of them become so woke and so utterly ridiculous that I can't take it anymore.
So, for instance, Stanford University just put out a word guide of words they can't say anymore on campus.
They being students, they being faculty, whatever, right?
Banning words.
Where am I?
Beyon Yang, right?
So now, uh for instance, harmful language, according to Stanford, which at last check, it's not Ivy, but it might as well be Ivy, right?
A nice campus and a decent football team that used to be anyway, and then obviously uh uh you have uh the basketball team always uh very, very uh competitive, but you can't say the word brave or American anymore on the campus of Stanford University.
Can you believe this?
So now my kids are stuck owing to either Faber College, which doesn't exist because it's from Animal House, right?
South Central Louisiana, which is from the Water Boy, or hamburger you.
Those are my choices at this point because everybody else is not doing the basic blocking and tackling.
Life demands.
All right, are you tired of overpaying woke wireless companies?
How about this?
You get talk and text and blazing fast data for just 30 bucks a month.
Yep, on the same exact network, the same cell towers, the same 5G network as the big carriers like Verizon ATT and T-Mobile.
And how's that for saying uh half the price?
Merry Christmas, happy Hanukkah, happy new year.
Hallelujah.
You could save money, especially in these tough economic times.
Look, that's what Pure Talk is all about.
It's a U.S.-based customer service team you'll be working with.
There is no better service in the industry, and it's a veteran-owned business.
It's simple to make the switch.
Just dial pound 250 on yourself.
Say the keyword save now.
If you do it now, you'll save an additional 50% off your first month.
Same exact service, average family saving close to a thousand.
Some families saving much, much more.
Pound 250 keywords saved now from our friends at Pure Talk, and it will only take minutes of your time.
When news breaks, you get the inside story that no one else has.
And the behind the scenes chatter that the mainstream media doesn't even know about.
This is the Sean Hannity show.
And it's Joe Concierge for Sean Hannity.
I may have to pull an executive decision here.
All right, make an executive order, as it were.
All right.
I got a pen and a phone, or in this case, a pen and a microphone.
And from now on, for all music coming in and out of breaks, I will decide what we play.
I want a lot of Ronettes.
All right.
I want a lot of Nat King Call.
I want a lot of Mariah Carey and a little Billy Squire.
All right.
And I mean it.
That's that's that's the order.
Thank you.
I'm assuming you'll be doing these a cappella.
Well, yeah.
Given the late nature of your request.
I look forward to your performances in and out of every break.
And I've been talking all morning about the show, and of course I bring this up at uh, let's see, 35 minutes in.
So that's wonderfully timed as always.
Of course.
You look good, by the way.
I mean, you know, I know you've been working hard and everything, but you got a little glow to you.
A little glow to Linda today.
What's going on?
It is the season.
Ah, yes.
For Zima, apparently, which is right next to you right now.
Somebody's starting early once again.
I would drink during the show also.
It's the only thing that actually make it uh somewhat absorbable.
Uh let's uh speaking of somebody who's easy to absorb, like a Zima for that matter, is Greg Jarrett.
He is Fox News' legal analyst, I would say the best uh that is on there by far.
Certainly uh the one that's probably been on there the longest, I would think, and the host of the podcast, The Brief.
And I I I gotta discuss, Greg, the this this strange is one way to put it, extension by the Biden administration of fight Title 42 into next week.
I mean, what exactly is the administration trying to say in its brief about the border and the state of the nation uh to the Supreme Court where they say, we know things can get really bad.
Not that they're not bad already, of course, they're they're horrible, but you know, let's wait until after Christmas before we completely destroy the lives of our border agents officials and the country in general.
Go ahead, Greg, take it away.
The floor is yours.
Joe, can't we just play Nat King Cole and be done with this silliness?
You got a good point.
We got a whole big library from from that guy, no question.
Yeah, I love Nat King Cole.
Look, what Joe Biden is asking the Supreme Court to do is to save him from himself.
I find it so incredibly ironic that here's a guy who decided to end Title 42, which creates uh a catastrophe out of chaos.
And suddenly, you know, he files a petition before the Supreme Court and says, Well, I'm right about ending Title 42, but please don't do it now because you know we we've got to get organized.
Well, he's had two years to get organized at the border, and he's done absolutely nothing.
And you know, this is a guy who I mean it his stupidity and incompetence knows no bounds.
Think of it this way.
Close to six million people that have come into the United States illegally under his watch.
That's more people than several states combined.
It's more people than Chicago, the third largest city in America.
And for there is no ability, especially for the border states, uh, to absorb all of this, and the burden on them is just um unsustainable.
And and you know, Biden won't even go down to the border to look at the situation.
He's, you know, I've I've got more important things to do.
Having spent, you know, the vast majority of you know, his weekends at his Delaware home.
You know, long weekends.
Can't take a little time off and go down to the border.
Uh, you know, it's it's fecklessness, it's incompetence, and And it's also, you know, disdain for the humanitarian crisis that has occurred under his watch.
And I just find it so mind boggling that most Americans are not completely up in arms.
It's been a Republicans for the longest time.
But now you actually have Democrats who are voicing concern.
Governor Gavin Newsom in California, obviously a border state, Kristen Cinema, another border state in Arizona.
And, you know, of course, the people that are there immediately, Henry Quayar, Congressman who's a Democrat, has been railing against Biden.
Pay attention to this.
Do something about it.
He's done absolutely nothing.
And I and I find it so humorous, really.
I mean, it's laughable when I watch the interview of uh Greg Abbott, the Texas governor by a liberal journalist who tried to suggest that, you know, Biden never uh invited people to come here, but it was Republicans who did it.
That is a complete lie.
I mean, we have played the clip on Fox News over the last 24 hours of Joe Biden during a presidential debate uh inviting people uh to come across our sudden southern border.
You know, bring your tired your poor, we'll welcome you here.
And that's what they did.
And Greg, let's let's be clear who that journalist is, and that's we're not talking about you know the joys, right?
Joey Reed or Joy Behar, you know, two of the more inappropriately named people uh with a microphone uh on their lapel.
We're we're talking about Martha Raditz, right?
Uh the the gal who cried uh the night Donald Trump won, from what I remember in in 2016 when when it was announced.
And she went into that interview on a mission.
And it wasn't for the truth, Greg, uh in the name of journalism or getting the true story.
She went there to push a narrative to Greg to Governor Abbott, right?
And and it was a narrative that says that the crisis that isn't it's a catastrophe now, let's face it, at the border.
It's simply fear-mongering by Abbott and DeSantis and Trump that they kept talking about opa open borders, therefore, people in Mexico and Guatemala and Honduras and Cuba and Venezuela all hear that and say, oh, maybe we should come.
No, the reason why they were coming is because literally Joe Biden said during a primary debate in July of 2019, I want to say that quote, immediately surge the border, unquote.
He told people in all those countries.
And then literally there are photos, video of illegal migrants with t-shirts saying Biden let us in.
So I'm pretty sure that that was the cue.
And Raditz did her audience such a disservice here.
And then we hear the same thing out of cringe Jean-Pierre, right?
Where she says, nope, this is actually Republicans' fault.
They don't want to meet us at the bargaining table as far as immigration.
No, it's a very easy negotiation.
Start building the wall again and reinstate, remain in Mexico and keep Title 42 up, and you'll see the type of decrease that we need to in order to save our educational system and our obviously our health care system is going to be overwhelm overwhelmed, Greg.
I guess my question is, and I guess this is more speculation than legal anal analysis on your part, but what is the motivation ultimately of the Biden administration?
Because they're polling in the 20s in terms of their handling of the border.
So this doesn't give them any political upside.
I for the life of me, I can't understand why they're doing it, because it has to go far beyond incompetence, right?
Well, yeah.
I mean, it it is this sort of you know, liberal progressive, woke kumbaya.
Oh, everybody's welcome.
You know, it's the same approach they take to criminals.
Oh, you're just you know, misunderstood.
And, you know, the 50th time you commit the same crime, you're you're still really misunderstood.
It's our fault as society that that you turn to violent crime.
And, you know, we're to blame, and we don't believe in prison.
You know, that's like caging animals.
And you know, it's it's this same sort of woke mentality that that drives these people.
And, you know, I I think that the midterm elections would have been an opportunity uh for voters to make their voices heard about this, but you know, they simply didn't.
Now I think most voters do understand that this is a crisis that's unparalleled taking place at at our border.
And it's only going to get worse with the lifting of Title 42.
And You're gonna have millions and millions of more people coming in there.
Um but they they didn't you know uh express their anger and disdain over Biden's policy with their votes.
And there were other reasons for that.
And I think that gave the green light to liberals and Democrats and Joe Biden.
Hey we can do whatever we want.
There's no fallout for this politically and and so you know Joe Biden is continuing to do this sort of thing.
I am somewhat hopeful it's gonna be a tough thing for the U.S. Supreme Court to say to the nineteen uh attorneys general that yeah irreparable harm we recognize that but under the Constitution immigration is left up uh to the federal government and so you know we'll wait and see I mean maybe they can craft a way to keep Title 42 uh going but i if they do not I mean you know you've got six million people who've come into the U.S. already I mean
you can double that in pretty short order.
So Greg, and we're talking to Greg Jarrett, he is the author by the way, an instant New York Times bestseller witch hunt the story of the greatest mass delusion in American political history.
I do want to talk about that in a second.
So you think ultimately Title 42 fails because federal government controls these things and the Supreme Court isn't going to start making up things as they go along and they're they're gonna go based on the precedent.
Yeah if they're strict constructionists, if they are you know going to maintain fidelity to the Constitution and its you know original intent I I just don't see them uh you know blocking the lifting of Title 42 which you know means that you know we're gonna see millions and millions of people more.
I mean and and you know these people uh who want to come into the US have been paying attention they know that Title 42 is about to be lifted which is why you're seeing videotape after videotape on Fox News but never on uh the other networks uh until recently you've actually been seeing some of it of people massing at our southern so you know we'll wait and see what SCOTUS does but I'm you know I'm not optimistic.
Believe it or not, Greg, and I almost had to do a double take in this regard when you talk about other networks not talking about this.
I mean, we have, Fox News does, Bill Malusian at the border every day, getting the story, particularly with drones, where you just see the mass influx of people coming over.
And he's been one of the best reporters in the country in that regard and deserves every award that should come to him.
Of course, it will never happen, given the people that decide these awards.
But let's play that MSNBC cut before, because I couldn't believe that this was on MSNBC.
But here you have a Democratic lawmaker talking to an MSNBC reporter.
reporter and I have a feeling this reporter didn't see what was coming in terms of this lawmaker saying please please President Biden get the hell down here cut whatever go.
Washington needs to deal with immigration and they haven't since nineteen eighty six that was the last comprehensive immigration reform uh program that existed in this country.
So my question is I just don't see and maybe I'm wrong.
I don't see the urgency.
I see the urgency of the NGOs.
I see the Red Cross the plane that brought me here was filled with Red Cross volunteers.
I see local uh officials here I see state you know border patrol over here I mean uh National Guard I just don't see the urgency by the federal government.
Am I wrong?
I don't see where's FEMA where are the organizations where are people just knowing that these are men, women and children who are asking for asylum the legal right to ask for asylum.
Whether they're given up or not is separate.
But I don't see it.
Yeah.
So uh the I share your your feeling of frustration and the need for more urgency and I want to see that uh starting with the White House I would like to see more direct engagement.
Exactly starting with the White House lead by example.
If I got to hear one more time from a Kamala Harris who says well Republicans just aren't serious about immigration reform.
Oh, really, Ms. Vice President, how many, Madam Vice President, how many lawmakers have you reached out to to begin these so-called negotiations?
It just doesn't happen.
But I want to pivot from this for a second, Greg, because I do want to talk more about Elon Musk and all the receipts that we're seeing now as far as, all right, shadow banning.
We always said that it existed, particularly with conservative accounts.
And you were called a conspiracy theorist.
If you claim that, well, it turns out that's 100 percent true.
And now, obviously, I think the most telling thing is the FBI speaking on a regular basis, on a daily basis with Twitter executives in terms of how to squash certain stereotypes.
stories that always seem to go in one direction, which is quite remarkable.
So, based on what you've seen, uh, what happens next at Twitter, you think?
You know, I wrote a column uh a couple of weeks ago saying that uh Elon Musk deserves a medal for his honesty and transparency, something that one of his predecessors, Jack Dorsey, um, it seems alien to Dorsey.
Yeah.
Um and so I interviewed yesterday Michael uh uh Schellenberger, who is one of the four reporters who reviewed and published the Twitter files.
He talked to me about 150 FBI emails uh to the platform directing them to, you know, uh act as a proxy for the government, which is a clear violation of the First Amendment.
As many as eighty FBI agents assigned a surveillance and the censorship project.
And he said, you know, his review of the Twitter file shows the FBI and the intelligence community uh worked sedulously to discredit leaked information about Hunter Biden and his laptop before it was published, and they knew that it was going to be published.
How did they know?
Well, they they seized the laptop in December of 2019.
They were spying on uh Rudy Giuliani.
They knew he had a copy of it.
He they knew he was trying to get it published.
And so they had gone to Twitter in advance and Facebook and other social media sites.
And according to Schellenberger, they sort of ran a psyops campaign in which they tried to brainwash Twitter into believing that it was Russian disinformation.
And you see reply emails uh from people like Yol Waff, you know, who's sort of the progressive proxy.
And uh and he's but there is there is no Russian dis we've checked it out.
There's no evidence that this is you know, this looks like the genuine article.
Sure.
Uh but he and others at the platform decided to censor it anyway and suppress any dissent to banish people and cancel accounts over the laptop.
Uh and you know, so this is as I say a clear violation of the first amendment because it is government action using a surrogate for censorship.
Well, either way, Greg, uh when you look back at your books, you know, so many things are being justified now, just in terms of an overall fixed fights, right?
And and what you talked about as far as Russia collusion and and the great mass delusion.
And and you know, I I know Greg's book uh came out uh a little while ago, but still it's it's still time to buy it.
I'm looking at Amazon right now.
You can get this before Christmas.
