	Okay, joining us today because we have to talk about this.
	My God, you would think that all the talking we've done would amount to something, and it certainly has not, not in the last three years.
	President and CEO of Borders 911, former acting ice director, retired federal agent Tom Holman is joining us today.
	Tom, happy day after Christmas.
	How are you?
	Doing good.
	Thanks for having me.
	Yeah, as we look at the new year, Tommy, right now, there's news reports of another massive caravan that's moving through Mexico.
	Um headed to uh the United States to the border, I think it's El Paso.
	But you know, they're saying it's the largest this year, but I kind of remember, and correct me if I'm wrong, right before Christmas, there was a caravan that smashed all the records at 20,000 coming through the border.
	So I mean, it doesn't matter.
	There's too many.
	Too many for us to process, too many for us to vet.
	It's just out of control, is it not?
	Of course, uh these are historic numbers.
	Uh November was the highest November in history of this nation.
	And December's gonna blow that away.
	I mean, we're already up for recorded May for December.
	we got another five days to go.
	So uh I expect this to be around a little over 300.
	Um, which we could actually be at an all-time high for any month of any year uh since uh in the history of this nation in December.
	And it's and it's you're right, we've been talking about this for three years.
	Uh next month would be three years as administration been in charge, and we're still talking about historic illegal migration because they haven't done they haven't did a single thing to slow the flow.
	That not a second that no enforcement action has been taken in three years.
	You know, and the American people aren't stupid, Tom.
	You know, I heard the administration talk about how it's the Republicans' fault, and they know that it's not the Republicans' fault, and they know that this president has not delivered on protecting this country and protecting her borders.
	And I just I it just blows my mind to think that there are we're talking, so we're close to a million.
	I mean, overall, since he's been in office, I think people were projecting it would be around eight million by the end of this year.
	But I think it's even well above that, isn't it, at this point?
	Well, yeah, it's eight million counters, but we don't know, you know, we got at a minimum one point eight million known gataways.
	And these this isn't a guess.
	These gataways are counted on drone traffic, sensor traffic, or camera traffic.
	These are we have images, so one point eight million to add that to the eight, and we're we're we're closing on ten million.
	And we got another full year left of this administration.
	And look, they're gonna keep coming because why wouldn't they?
	They're gonna cross the border, they'll be released, they'll be flown to the city of their choice, and we give them work authorization, that's five, seven years, and be placed in a hotel room at taxpayer expense, and we give them three square meals a day plus medical care.
	I mean, who the hell wouldn't come under those circumstances?
	So this is not gonna slow down until takes uh they take some enforcement action, which look, this is this is not mismanagement.
	This isn't an in conference.
	I say it all the time.
	This is by design.
	You gotta give Joe Biden credit.
	He promised open borders and and he's he's uh he's kept his promise.
	So uh American people need to, you know, demand action, right?
	This administration, which they won't be forced into action, or we gotta boat them out of office.
	I mean, we cannot allow this to continue.
	This is the biggest national security crisis I've seen since 9-11.
	Yeah, and you know, some border patrol chiefs have talked about their concern about the number of immigrants that are actually avoiding detection at the southern border.
	One said that it actually keeps them all up at night when they think about what's going on.
	And at the at the time there was a chief patrol agent Jason Owens, who um now uh head of the border patrol told lawmakers that a major concern for the agency is that impact of the humanitarian crisis on the border security mission.
	So you've got these um border patrol officers who are kept from the bad stuff that's going on, kept from the cartels and everything else that may be happening over there, because over here they've got a humor ham humanitarian crisis that they've got to keep an eye on as well.
	I mean, they are just overloaded, overwhelmed, and we're not productive or careful or or safe by any means.
	No, they're not allowed to do the national security mission because they're all in processing.
	Look, you in the last couple months there's been several sectors on the southwest border where every single border patrol agent, every one of them, were pulled off the line and in certain sectors.
	That means there's hundred miles of border, hundreds of miles of border without a single uniform on patrol.
	And that's what is concerned these men and women.
	They signed up protect this nation, but while they're in changing diapers, making baby formula and making hospital runs.
	There are bad people crossing that border.
	We gotta figure out 1.8 million I talked about.
	Why did 1.8 million people pay more to get away?
	Why take advantage of the free giveaway?
	Pay less, turn yourselves in, get released, get flown to the city of your choice, get work office station, get a hotel room, get three squares a day.
	Who the hell wouldn't take advantage of that giveaway program at a cheaper rate?
	Why do they choose to pay more as a criminal car tell us to get away?
	It's obvious because they don't want to be vetted.
	They don't want to be fingerprinted.
	These are people can't fatten all, these are people trafficking at women and children, sex trafficking, and these can be known aspected terrorists.
	I've said it many times, border patrols arrested people from 171 different countries.
	Some of these countries are sponsored with terror.
	Last year they arrested uh uh 659, including the northern border Under Trump in four years, when I work for President Trump, four years.
	Eleven.
	Oh my God.
	Unbelievable.
	And you know, there is, as you said, this growing number of individuals that are on the FBI's terrorist watch list.
	So when you take a look at those numbers, just let's take just the 1.8 million, okay, that were willing to pay the extra.
	Why did they, why didn't they just do it the way everyone else is doing?
	It costs less, it's easier.
	But when you consider that, even a very small percentage of that, even one percent, less than 10%, 1%, even less than 1%.
	If they had nefarious intentions coming into this country, we're in a lot of trouble.
	Those are a lot of people.
	Exactly.
	And people say, why do I think that?
	Because after 9-11, we created a lot of databases, a lot of vetting programs to make sure that like 9-11 terrorists came in on a visa, they came out on plane tickets.
	So we create all these databases to make sure a terrorist didn't come in on a visa and on a plane ticket.
	That's why we got the TSA No Fly less.
	We got the FBI screening database.
	We got the Visa Security Program, which anybody asked for visas vetted through numerous database bases, including DOD databases.
	But what terrorists in the right minds when asked for a visa or ask for a plane ticket, knowing who we vetted, meaning simply go to Mexico, pay cartels extra money, be part of the 1.8 million gataways.
	Look, when there's hundreds of miles of border empty, these criminal cartels know it.
	They create gaps in the system.
	These large groups don't just show up at a certain place by accident.
	The cartels decide when they cross, where they cross, how many cross, knowing to overwhelm whatever's left on the border and create gaps in the system.
	They got hundreds miles of border and move the product, move their move to fentanyl, move their, you know, sex tracking women and children, move the gang members and criminals.
	And look, move no inspect the terrorists.
	These cartels don't care who they move.
	They don't care if these people are terrorists, they just want to get paid.
	Exactly.
	You know, when we people, you know, it used to be when we talked about the border, many would say, Oh, but you know, these people just want to come over here, they just need a better life.
	But now I think people's eyes are being opened and they are seeing and understanding that this is much more than just allowing people that need a better life or desire one to come over across that border.
	What we are essentially doing right now, Tom, and I just it breaks my heart is we are enabling, we are making rich the cartels, those who mean harm to other people, who, as you said, don't care what happens to those people.
	You know, the ones that are allowing these traffickers to to receive young children and the child pornography, the child sex trafficking, the drugs that are killing our citizens.
	This is we are enabling them to do that.
	We are literally just saying here, do whatever you want to our citizens, to these poor children who have no other uh way of escape now because they've got caught up in your system, the cartil cartel system.
	We are literally just handing those children to him, the drugs to this country by allowing this to go on.
	It's just it's uh unbelievable.
	Look, because of this open border, approximately 300 families are going to be notified today that a child of the rest of die from fentanyl overdoses of a drug come across that border.
	Tonight, while you and I are talking on the show tonight, while we're talking, a child's gonna die on the southern border.
	While we're talking, women are being raped by the criminal cartels.
	31% of women make that journey through cartels, admitted to being raped.
	If 31 per 31% of women admitted to being a rape, how many actually got raped?
	We're talking.
	People think, well, these come from a better life.
	No.
	The criminal cart is a whole ugly underbelly of illegal migration.
	Illegal immigration is not a victimist crime.
	So while we're talking, women are being raped, a child's gonna die.
	You know, break somebody's heart.
	Uh 300 families get the hearts broken today.
	So no, this isn't okay.
	And there's right way and wrong way to come to this country.
	You want to be a part of the greatest nation on earth, then you should be breaking the laws as you're first acting to come to this nation.
	We got millions of people standing in line, taking their tests, doing their background investigation, paying their fees.
	They want to be a part of this country.
	They're sitting in the back seat.
	Well, we got millions of millions of cheaters.
	And I won't say cheaters.
	They call them asylum seekers, but based on data, nine out of ten don't qualify for asylum.
	Like you said, they're coming for a job.
	So they're they're cheating the system.
	Meanwhile, there's thousands of people in this world who really do qualify for asylum.
	They really are escaping fear and persecution from their home government because of race, religion, political affiliation.
	That's what that's what uh that's what asylum is all about.
	They're in the back of the line while these fraudsters, while these criminals, what what while these people who play in the system overwhelmed the border kill, which is causing the fentanyl, 112,000 fentanyl overdoses, or record number of women and children being sex trafficked, and then run it record number of gang members coming to the country, cartels are making millions of dollars a year.
	There is no good side of this.
	We need to secure the borders because if you secure the borders, you save lives.
	Agreed.
	Agreed.
	And that's what it's about.
	It's not, you know, if you really are concerned about the humanity of all of this, then you would want those borders secured for the sake of the children, their children, our children.
	You know, one of the there was some federal authorities said that there was a seven-day average.
	You know, this is just an average of more than 9600 migrant encounters along the U.S. border in December alone.
	Last month, in November, the average was 6800 encounters.
	They've got such huge problems there.
	And let me tell you something.
	Um, just last week, I think it was before Christmas, Governor Greg Abbott had approved new powers that would allow the police to arrest migrants who illegally crossed our border, and then it gave this these powers that he established would give local judges the power to order them, those migrants to leave the country or or be charged on misdemeanor charges of illegal entry.
	And then at that point, too, that uh migrants who don't leave could face arrest on again under more serious felony charges.
	Now, of course, it's come up against a lot of opposition, and you would want to know, Tom, why?
	Why would this come under opposition when it it it is it somebody needs to take control of this situation?
	Somebody the federal government is doing nothing, so the states, the states should be permitted, but I don't know that he's going to be permitted in the in the end to follow through on those powers, that order for those powers.
	I appreciate what Governor Abbott's doing.
	He's done more to secure the border than anybody in this administration when he's protecting Texas at the same time, protecting the United States.
	Every every ounce of fat is two per sees or less overdose tests.
	At least we have the arrest for trespassing.
	We'll get fingerprinted and get vetted on like the 1.8 million.
	And and but I I fear he will lose the Secretal Court, just like Arizona lost SB 54 a few years ago.
	Immigration enforcement's a federal responsibility, and I think he'll lose that court.
	I wish he wouldn't, but I'm just guessing.
	Yeah, I think based on SB 54, what happened in Arizona, of course, followed the immigration enforcement's a duty of federal government.
	It's a shame that federal government advocated their responsibility to do that.
	I can understand the federal government was trying to enforce immigration law and government stepped in to take it over, but no, the federal government's refusing to enforce southern borders.
	So the government's stepping in.
	I think it's this constitutional right under clause to do that.
	But my feeling is you'll lose it in court just because the court system is not the same support system we've we're we've had last 20 years.
	I think the court system's rigged too.
	And I think I hope you win, but I I'm pessimistic about it.
	Yeah, I agree with you.
	We're talking to Tom Holman.
	Please check out Border 911.com.
	He is establishing an organization that is to help save this country and protect our borders.
	It's Border 911.com.
	Tom, thank you so much for joining me today, and I I wish you a very happy new year.
	And God help us.
	God help us in this new year.
	Thank you.
	Thanks for having me.
	Keep doing what you're doing.
	We appreciate it.
	And you too.
	You too.
	God bless you.

	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.

	What I told people I was making a podcast about Benghazi, nine times out of ten, they called me a masochist, rolled their eyes, or just asked, why?
	Benghazi, the truth became a web of lies.
	It's almost a dirty word.
	One that connotes conspiracy theory.
	Will we ever get the truth about the Benghazi massacre?
	Bad faith, political warfare, and frankly, bullshit.
	We kill the ambassador just to cover something up.
	You put two and two together.
	Was it an overblown distraction or a sinister conspiracy?
	Benghazi is a Rosetta Stone for everything that's been going on for the last 20 years.
	I'm Leon Nafok from Prologue Projects and Pushkin Industries.
	This is Fiasco Benghazi.
	What difference at this point does it make?
	Yeah, that's right.

	Okay, so let's catch up on some of the phone calls.
	Uh why don't we start with Cliff who is calling from Tampa, Florida?
	How are you, Cliff?
	Hi, Rose.
	Uh, how are you?
	I'm good.
	My favorite place to go when I need to chill and relax and unwind is the big pink hotel right down there in St. Petersburg, not too far from where you are.
	Do you know which one I'm talking about?
	Wonderful.
	Absolutely.
	Don Caesar.
	Yeah.
	First, thank you for being obedient to God's call to ministry.
	We all appreciate that very much.
	Thank you.
	Thank you.
	Wow.
	Thank you.
	I saw a statistic where in 2021, according to the CDC, the number of uh deaths caused by sentinel and over drug overdose were more than double the number of deaths caused by guns.
	I hear people, you know, as well they should be angry about gun violence.
	I want to know where's the outrage about the open border that's leading to double the number of deaths by fentanyl and drug abuse.
	It just doesn't make sense to me that they would be in support of open borders and yet be so uh angry about gun deaths.
	And blase about the fentanyl poisoning.
	You know, Cliff, you make a great point because as as um Tom Holman mentioned on Christmas Day alone, over 300 families uh are going to be told that their loved one passed away from a deadly drug.
	And we have a wide open border that allows the cartels, Chinese and Mexican, by the way, they're criminals, there's criminal networks, and they're oper operating here with impunity.
	And and this is that it should be an outrage.
	You're right.
	This is a humanitarian crisis.
	This is an attack on our children.
	Cliff, what in the heck are we doing about it?
	And I'll tell you what, you know, and they and I let's let's just narrow it down, put a finer point on all of this.
	When there are five Texans that die every day, they say from fentanyl poisoning.
	They are at the point of entry.
	They are right there where it's happening.
	And that's five a day of Texans, just in these cities, right there on the border.
	This is an outrage.
	And yet, Cliff, you're right, we do not hear the outcry really from anyone, do we?
	Unless, of course, God forbid you should be someone who lost a child to a fentanyl poisoning.
	And there are many that have.
	And it's too bad that that's what it takes.
	And it's just a part of the border crisis.
	Right.
	Yeah, just support.
	Just a thought.
	Yeah, no, thank you so much.
	And it was so nice to hear from you.
	God bless.
	And happy new year to you.
	You too.
	And thank you.
	And then we've got Sean.
	Sean is calling from Pennsylvania.
	That's great.
	What part of Pennsylvania, Sean, are you in?
	Uh in Lancaster County.
	Oh, oh.
	I love that area.
	And I I've met you several times.
	You're doing a great job.
	Thank you for taking my call.
	Thank you very much.
	Did you want to talk about the border?
	I sure do.
	As as someone who went through recently, went through the immigration process to bring my wife to the United States.
	We went through everything the exact right way, filed the proper forms, paid the enormous fees.
	And just wondering where what where's the fairness?
	Well, I mean, a lot of my friends asked the same thing because I have many friends in New York City who own restaurants or making a go of things, working hard, paying taxes, did it all the right way, got in line, still waiting.
	And for me, and congratulations by the the way on your uh new marriage and your new wife.
	Thank you.
	But for me, I I happen to be second generation Italian, and I have heard the stories I had heard the stories over and over again about the rigorous vetting process that my grandparents had to go through to come to this country.
	So, you know, and oh God.
	And and you know, there would they were able to process, they were able to vet, they were able to do all of those things that needed to be done to protect the rest of the country because we they weren't having they didn't have wide open borders.
	There was a process.
	There was a process, and there is nothing wrong with the process, Sean.
	Yep, not at all.
	And and here's the thing the vetting is still that still happens.
	Okay, they vetted me financially over and over again to make sure that my beneficiary, why my wife would not become part of the public charge.
	That's the process of the fiance uh visa program is to make sure that that person comes in, you legally get married, and that they there's no danger or little danger of that person becoming part of the public charge.
	But yet thousands upon thousands of people are entering the border every day.
	They're they're being caught, they're being let loose, they're being given money.
	Yeah.
	And just like your your guests said, they're being taken to cities, they're offered jobs, they're offered housing, benefits, food, education, everything.
	And here I am, I went through the right way.
	She now has her green card and she's working.
	But it was amazing.
	Those all of those things cost money.
	The green card itself is 1225 just for the volley fee.
	Well, you were charged to provide for her welfare, but the rest of us are being charged to provide for the welfare of millions.
	Don't forget, this we're talking millions, not thousands.
	But Sean, that was a great call.
	Thank you so much, and happy new year to you.
	And to you, thank you so much.
	Thank you so much.
	All right, we still have God bless you.
	You've been waiting.
	I appreciate you, Mike calling from Clearwater.
	About the same.
	Well, he's pretty close to our one of our last callers down there in Clearwater.
	How are you, Mike?
	And thanks for waiting.
	Yes, ma'am.
	Thank you so much for taking my call.
	Um, there's a few things that I want to talk about, but I'll whittle it down to what are the most important.
	The pastor, what an awesome man.
	Uh, I'm visually impaired.
	So if you can get a hold of him and ask him to make that into an audio book, it would make my life a lot easier.
	Oh, I will.
	And then um the thing that people have to remember about inflation is when inflation cut when when you're used to paying, say, 10 or 15 dollars for a pizza and inflation comes, and now that same pizza's 20 or 25 dollars.
	I don't care how much inflation goes down.
	That that price is the new norm.
	Yes.
	The sticky pricing.
	You know, very rarely do prices ever go down.
	And uh that's my first point.
	And here's my second point, Rose.
	Look at what they how they're treating President Trump versus how they're treating Hunter Biden.
	Now I just want to let you know, Rose, that today is your lucky day.
	Oh, wow.
	Okay.
	I have some business feelings in the works, and I have officially dubbed you the big girls.
	So you will be getting your 10%, I promise.
	You look in your bank account within the next few weeks, and the money should start coming in.
	And um the suspicious activity reports that that's gonna be on you.
	I only send you the money.
	So there you go.
	Now that's gonna work out for both of us, right?
	Mm-hmm.
	My point I like where you're coming from.
	Thanks for your call.
	You know what?
	And I will talk to them about it, that audio book, sweetie.
	And you know what?
	God bless you, and I I pray that you have a happy and prosperous new year.
	God bless.
	Oh, and by the way, real quick too, Mike.
	You are so right about the prices.
	Once everything's gone up, we've had uh shrinkflation, which you know, now we find that the products that we were buying before are smaller or there's less in a box or a package, and we're still being uh asked to pay the same price or even slightly higher.
	You tell me how that all goes back to how it was before Biden economics happened, okay?
	Thank you for your call, sweetie.
	Uh, I really appreciate you.
	And I'm sorry I have to go.
	I but because I have I want to get a few more on before I do close out the show.
	Um uh let's see, we have Ed in North Carolina.
	Hi, Ed, how are you?
	Hello.
	I'm from Green County originally.
	Oh, no kidding.
	That's not too far from where I live.
	That's wonderful.
	I am a uh convert from I was raised in a Democrat family, and the first time I I was on my way to work, I worked at the Washington County jail.
	And I was to work listening for something to listen to, and the first thing I heard was bathroom noises, and then followed by you telling Jim Quinn to knock it off that you've had enough.
	I was always telling him that.
	Oh, you're so sweet.
	You can still hear his show at war room.com, by the way.
	Yeah, I was disappointed when they did that to you guys, because I spent years listening to that, but I've gone from a Democrat to you guys are getting the credit for converting me.
	Wow.
	I had for you was what was the name of the every Christmas there was a family local to the Pittsburgh area that you played their music, but it was like only on sale in the Oh I can't remember.
	I know who you're talking about, but I can't if I think of it, I will mention it on air before I go.
	But thank you for your phone call, sweetie, and happy new year to you.
	I really appreciate you.
	Real quick, let me get Jacob in from Destin, Florida.
	Hey Jacob.
	Yes, ma'am.
	How are you doing?
	Uh can you hear me?
	I can.
	How's it going?
	Yes, ma'am.
	I am doing quite well.
	Actually, headed back down to uh destined from uh visiting my folks up in Atlanta.
	Uh really appreciate you taking my call.
	Um a little bit about myself.
	I'm a uh prior service marine and uh prior service uh police officer.
	Thank you.
	Thank you for your service.
	Yes, ma'am.
	Um I was listening to uh your interview with uh Secretary Holman, and you were absolutely spot on uh with him and all about the possibility that terrorists have uh infiltrated this country.
	And my worst fear with that is the fact that they be maybe bringing in weapons of mass destruction into this country.
	Because technically we are still at war with uh elements of radical Islamic terrorists.
	All right, well, let me let me because I'm running out of time first tell you thank you for this call because Jacob, you make a great point, and let me remind people that there was a story not long ago, it was in the Daily Mail.com if I remember correctly.
	Border patrol agents were being warned warned to be vigilant because America's facing unprecedented migrant Surge and they were told to exercise or the border agents were told to exercise extreme caution and report any possible armed subjects with possible improvised explosive devices.
	Why?
	Because the Mexican military seized at that point, this was just maybe a week or so ago, 10 IEDs at the US Mexico border at Tucson.
	So yes, Jacob, you are absolutely positively spot on.
	Thank you for that phone call.
	And thank all of you.
	I still have one more segment left.
	So what we'll do is we'll go to a break so I can spend adequate amount of time that I have left with you.
	And uh I appreciate all of your phone calls.
	Thank you.
	We'll be back.
	Didn't the IRS scandal and the NSA atrocities convince you?
	You need a watchdog on Washington with insider sources.
	You need Hannity every day.
	Music
	What a delight it has been to be with you on the Sean Hannity show today.
	Please remember to check me out on social media.
	It's Rose Unplugged.
	My podcasts are Rose Unplugged.

	That would mean a lot to me.

	And you know, just when we go into this new year, let's try to help others.
	Take a look around you, see who might be someone in need, and make it an appointment to do something for them and ask God every day for direction to make you the very best that you can be in this new year and make the best of your life in 2024.
	And as Pastor Jack Hibb said, pray for favor.
	Because you know what?
	Those prayers, when you set out your day like that, you will be shocked.
	You will be delighted to see just how those prayers are answered.
	And I especially just have such a heart for those who are going through difficult times right now.
	You might see them in a grocery store, you might see them uh in your neighborhood, but really try to stay aware of who you think might be in need and think of ways you can help them.
	If it's the senior citizen that lives on your block, maybe cut their grass, maybe offer to buy groceries or pick something up for them, just without even asking, maybe bless them in some way or another.
	But there's such need out there right now, thank you, Joe Biden, that we should be clearly and and openly aware of what is going on around us.
	Because you know what, we're not just here for ourselves.
	We need to be here for each other as well because nobody else is looking out for you.
	The government doesn't care.
	This president, this administration doesn't care.
	So it's up to us to care for one another until things change, and let's hope to God and pray to God that they do.
	But in the meantime, I do I really pray that all of you have a fabulous new year.
	I I love that I had the opportunity to spend time with you.
	And again, I would appreciate it so much if you would check me out on social media.
