This is an iHeart Podcast.
All right.
Thank you, Scott Channel, and thanks to all of you for being with us.
Write down our toll-free telephone number if you want to be a part of the program.
We got to give a lot of props to uh now secretary of homeland security, Christy Gnome.
She's actually taken to the podium.
Let's listen in.
She'll join us on Hannity tonight.
I think there were well, she's sitting at the podium.
All right, let's pull that up.
Well, I guess we don't have the audio.
Uh it's frozen for some reason.
Anyway, well, welcome, she says.
So Christy Gnome last night.
All of you do your work every day to make sure that not only do you accomplish your job and do it with excellence, but that you have the assurance that your families will be safe also, and that we leave this country safe for our kids and our grandkids far into the future.
Now, as secretary, that's my responsibility, but it also is my responsibility to do everything that I can to give you the resources that you need to do your job.
You need the training, you need the equipment and the resources to make sure you're prepared for every single situation you find yourself in.
Now, my background and experience is in business.
It's also in serving at the state legislative level.
I served in Congress, and I also have served as governor.
But that experience tells me that if you want people to perform with excellence, you have to equip and prepare them to do so.
And that is my commitment to all of you that we will walk through every single situation together, and I'll prepare you as much as I can for it, and we'll have the flexibility to make sure that we can always keep the American people first and foremost.
I am thrilled that President Trump trusted me with this job.
And I'll tell all of you that the reason uh that he trusted me with this job is because when he talked to me about what my future looked like, I asked him for it.
I said, I would like to have be the Secretary of Homeland Security, sir, because it's your number one priority.
And I love my job as governor of South Dakota.
I love my home and my family.
I would not leave them to spend time away unless I was doing something of significance.
That's the family I was raised in that we talked every day about the fact that our work should matter and it should have a purpose, and we should be able to explain why we do what we do, and that it has something that we can show the next generation that really mattered for their future and for this country.
So today I'm hoping all of us will be a beacon of freedom, of light, and of hope that when people look at us, they don't just see people who are there in a time of crisis or conflict, but we're also people that bring a smile to people's faces and remind them what America is about.
You're on the front lines many times, but you're also sometimes the last ones in to help pick up the pieces.
And you see people on their very worst days.
But that is a per presence that you can bring that will bring them comfort and stability in a time when their whole world seems to be shaken.
Now I grew up as a farmer and a rancher.
I told this story to a few people the first day that I came into the office that I grew up with a dad who was a cowboy.
Uh and he was much like you would picture John Wayne was in his westerns.
He lived hard and fast, and when he sent us off to school, we obviously lived in the country.
We had to drive.
He said, drive fast and take chances.
So there's not a lot of people that have dads like that.
Um but he also told us every day to get out of bed because more people die in bed than anywhere else.
And so we knew that when we got up, we got to work and we worked together as a family, but that also taught me a lot about how you need to live your example and an example in front of the people that that you lead of of what you want them to do, um, but that they also could respect you in the process of in being in front of that organization.
The one story I'll tell you, and I shared it with Kari the other day about my dad.
Um, was I remember one time I was like, let me dip back.
Let me give you some context as to what uh the new Department of Homeland Security Secretary Christy Gnome is actually talking about here.
And boy, what a difference just uh uh a week makes.
I mean, when you think about it, and you think of just the disastrous national security, you know uh uh the the worst national security disaster in our history, that all of which could have been prevented.
Alejandro Mayorcus and of course Joe Biden and Kamala Harris and the lies they told us and the lack of work that they did.
No, Christy Gnome was out on the job last night and this morning, and she joined ICE and law enforcement in New York City, and they were able, in her words, to to nail a bunch of of dirt bags in the sanctuary city of New York City.
And she she tweeted out, and she'll join us on TV tonight.
Just now, enforcement operation in New York City, criminal alien with kidnapping, assault, and burglary charges, is now in custody.
Guess who else they got?
They got one of the ringleaders of the Venezuelan gang, which is now in 20 states, Trend Aragua.
They got that one of those ringleaders.
And she joined these armed federal authorities first thing in the morning, the first deportation raids on illegal immigrants.
It's been going around the country in New York City, and starting with the criminal aliens and the kidnappers and those assault.
You know, I am I am literally sick and tired of the media in this country and how they are portraying this and Hollywood is represented by the likes of Selena Gomez.
I I don't want to hear their mischaracterization.
I mean, we'll play it later in the program over at MSDNC, Nicole Wallace comparing these ice rates to the to the Holocaust, yesterday being Holocaust Remembrance Day, or Joy Reid comparing Trump to Hitler, you know, and then and how all these similarities of what happened in Nazi Germany are now undeniable.
And then all of a sudden uh the liberals and the media like conspiracy theorist extraordinaire, you know, she gets paid to lie and peddle conspiracy theories, Rachel Maddow slamming the administration for the expensive use of military planes to deport illegal immigrants.
What part of we have known terrorists in this country?
Does she and these people not understand?
And and oh, we're just gonna put them on a plane and give them a cocktail and not worry about them maybe wanting to commandeer that airplane if they're a terrorist or a cartel member or a gang member.
We have known murderers, rapists, and and where were the tears for all the victims in this country?
As I brought up yesterday, Selena Gomez hysterically crying.
You know, where are the tears for Rachel Moran, Lakin Riley, Jocelyn Nungarry, that look that little girl that was, you know, brutally raped and it was videotaped, 13 years old in Queens, New York in a park in broad daylight.
You know, Sonny Houston over at that hard-hitting news show, The View, an undocumented immigrant is not a criminal because he or she is not undocumented.
That's xenophobic.
No, it's not.
We are, you know, for all the people that pushed lawfare, and oh, nobody's above the law.
Well, apparently that was only for Donald Trump, because they had no problem weaponizing our justice system, no problem with a phone evaluation of Mar-a-Lago, no problem with uh of Hillary Clinton bought and paid for Russian disinformation dossier accusing Donald Trump of being with hookers at the Ritz Carlton in Moscow and they're urinating on his bed.
No problem peddling that and using that as the fine foundation for Pfizer warrants.
No problem with the double standard of justice rating Mar-a-Lago, but not rating four locations where Joe Biden had top secret classified information uh stored, including next to his precious Corvette.
And no problem, Hillary Clinton, top secret classified information on her servers.
And and of course, she deletes 33,000 subpoenaed emails, destroys devices with hammers, removes SIM cards.
No problem.
No problem with unequal justice under the law.
No problem with unequal application of our laws.
You know, where is the love, the compassion for the American people?
You know, did they ever once shed a tear or talk about the brutal murder of any Americans?
There have been thousands of Americans that are victims of murder and rape, including children that have been raped.
We're missing 350,000 kids in this country right now, and I don't hear any outrage, any indignation from any of them.
Alejandro Mayorcus never got his ass out of the and and went on an ICE raid.
These people would never even go to the border.
They just sat in their air conditioned offices and told us, you know, everything's fine and the borders closed and the borders secure when our own eyes told us, you know, very differently.
And here's Christy Noam, like with a first, you know, second day on the job joining ICE agents and federal authorities, you know, on these deportation raids, and and they're finding, and they get one of the ringleaders of Treende Aragua.
Is that a good thing for the country or a bad thing for the country?
You know, she said live this morning from New York City.
I'm on it.
She was there with these numerous federal agencies hitting targets in New York City, starting in the Bronx.
She tweeted out or X'd out.
We are doing this right, exactly what President Donald Trump promised the American people.
We're gonna make our streets safe.
Dirt bags like this will continue to be removed from our streets.
Well, why why why do the people on in the media why are they protecting this group of people?
Caroline Levitt, I mean like a star was born today.
She was so good.
And she had to address this issue.
Here's here's here's her answer to the to Donald Trump keeping his promise on immigration.
Of the 3500 arrests ICE has made so far since President Trump came back into office.
Can you just tell us the numbers?
How many have a criminal record versus those who are just in the country illegally?
All of them, because they illegally broke our nation's laws and therefore they are criminals as far as this administration goes.
I know the last administration didn't see it that way, so it's a big culture shift in our nation to view someone who breaks our immigration laws as a criminal, but that's exactly what they are.
Additionally, President Trump signed an executive order to end catch and release and finish construction of his effective border wall.
By using every lever of his federal power, President Trump has sent a loud and clear message to the entire world.
America will no longer tolerate illegal immigration.
And this president expects that every nation on this planet will cooperate with the repatriation of their citizens.
As proven by this weekend, when President Trump swiftly directed his team to issue harsh and effective sanctions and tariffs on the Colombian government, upon hearing they were denied a U.S. military aircraft full of their own citizens who were deported by this administration.
I mean, she just crushed it today They did not know how to deal with her Oh, and we finally got an answer today In case you're interested about the mysterious drones Flying all over New Jersey Apparently part of an FAA research project Well, why was Biden and study?
The drones that were flying over New Jersey in large numbers were authorized to be flown by the FAA for research and various other reasons.
Many of these drones were also hobbyists, recreational, and private individuals that enjoy flying drones.
In meantime, in the in time it got worse due to curiosity.
This was not the enemy.
Why couldn't Harrison Biden tell us all of this?
This is how effective this is.
And I love that Kristi Noem went out with these guys today.
Can't wait to talk to her on TV tonight.
Now, the DHS has revealed that ISIS deported 7,300 illegals in Donald Trump's first week.
I mean, that is a huge number.
Most of those deported were either convicted or facing charges of robbery, rape, assault, domestic violence, drunk driving, reckless driving.
Trump wants to raise the pace to 1,500 deportations a day.
That would bring the total annual deportation up to roughly 500,000.
Now, we have at least what how many now?
What 15 million, 14 million?
We don't know.
With known gotta ways, we don't know.
How many unknown terrorists?
We don't know.
How many murderers, rapists?
We're guessing.
How many other people in this country illegally that want to bring harm?
How many cartel members?
How many gang members?
We don't know.
We just know that they're here.
Monday, ICE yesterday, 1,179 deportations.
And now all of a sudden, you know, here out comes the Mussolini, the Hitler, the Stalin, you know, comparisons again and again and again.
It just is like, you know, they they just doubled down on dumb, dumber, and stupid.
They really do.
Because that's exactly what they're doing.
DHS is doing the job that they promised to do.
The Colorado leader of Trend Aragua joined the notorious uh Aurora apartment siege.
Well, it's only one or two apartment complexes.
Remember that idiot in the media.
Anyway, they uh took him into custody in this Bronx apartment raid before dawn.
This is the one that Christy Gnome was on.
One Democratic representative.
I'm not going to tolerate Trump's deportation.
According to Jason Crow of Colorado.
Yeah, you're gonna tolerate it, or you're gonna get arrested.
If you're gonna interfere in the enforcement of our nation's laws, that in and of itself is a crime.
ICE reports over 600,000 criminal illegal immigrants are currently on the loose in the country, according to real clear politics.
That is a that is a massive number.
And heavily armed immigration agents carried out these deportation raids, which is what their job is.
This is what never should have happened in the first place.
And not only do Harris and Biden have blood on their hands, there's gonna be more blood because there'll be more murder, more rape, and God forbid, an attack on our homeland, because I have no doubt the terrorists they lit in are plotting and planning and scheming that attack.
I pray to God I'm wrong.
Hey there, I'm Mary Catherine Hamm.
And I'm Carol Markowitz.
We've been in political media for a long time.
Long enough to know that it's gotten, well, a little insane.
That's why we started normally a podcast for people who are over the hysteria and just want clarity.
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 iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you listen.
How many times did Majorcas lie to us and say the border was closed and secure?
We'll get to that at the after the news at the bottom of the half hour.
I mean, it just is almost becoming job impossible to keep up with the news and keep you informed every day.
And the Trump administration ordering sweeping freeze on federal aid.
And by the way, no, it's not gonna hurt the elderly, it's not gonna hurt services that that are usually performed.
None of that is true.
And you know, Democrats are demagoguing it and lying about it.
Uh dozens of senior officials at a top U.S. aid agency put on leave.
And by the way, uh the same I see that now the WHO, which was the propaganda wing for the communist Chinese lying about COVID.
I see that whoopsie daisy, they're running out of money and they have to make cuts.
Oh, I hope the same thing happens with the Paris Climate Accords, the WEF and hopefully the United Nations.
Let China have the UN.
can have it.
Keeping Uncle Sam accountable to you every day.
Hannity is on.
Twenty-five uh till the top of the hour.
So much news today.
800, 941 Sean, our number if you want to be a part of the program.
All right, we're still living with the Harris Biden economy.
It's gonna take a while to get things back in place.
You voted big government out.
You want a fishing government in.
Uh, and the squealing of the left is predictable as the day is long, but you gotta save money anywhere you can.
One way to do it, not sacrifice service, is to switch to my cell phone provider, Pure Talk, a veteran-owned company.
Now, they offer the exact same service.
They use the exact same cell towers, the exact same 5G network as the big carriers, Verizon ATT, T Mobile, and you get the same service at about half the cost.
You're not paying a hundred bucks a person a month for your wireless bill and a thirty-five dollar activation fee.
You can get from Pure Talk, unlimited talk, unlimited text, fifteen gigs of data, which is massive with mobile hotspot roaming, but just thirty-five bucks a month.
And the average family saving close to a thousand dollars a year.
Anyway, make the switch.
It's simple, it's fast, it's easy.
You dial pound two fifty.
You say the keyword, save now, do it now.
You'll save an additional fifty percent off your first month.
That's pound two fifty from your cell.
Key word, save now, and switch to Pure Talk, America's wireless company.
You know, so I'm watching Christy Gnome today.
Christy Gnome, you know, we and we now know the DHS ICE has deported seventy three hundred illegals.
Many of them are criminals.
As a matter of fact, a very high percentage of them.
You know, ICE is reporting that over 600,000 criminal illegal immigrants are on the loose in the country.
We have known terrorists in the country.
The Biden administration admitted, you know, somewhere around 14,000 murderers and about the same number of rapists in the country.
We've watched thousands of Americans become victims of murder and rape and other violent crimes.
We've seen a rise in drug uh distribution at lower rates, and you know, fentanyl is pretty much in everything these days.
And then we have a new homeland security secretary, Christy Gnome.
She'll be on TV tonight.
You know, she puts on a protective vest.
She goes out with ICE agents from Homeland Security and Immigration Customs Enforcement in a series of early morning, you know, lightning raids, and they start in the Bronx.
They make their way to New York City.
He attended a pre-raid tactical meeting, and she says dirt bags like this will continue to be removed from our streets.
Now, is that good for the country or bad for the country?
Because if you're listening to MSDNC, they're saying this is Nazi Germany.
And they're comparing Trump to Hitler yet again.
That works so well for them in the lead up to the election.
And, you know, but but she's, you know, out there, you know, getting dangerous people off our streets.
You know, uh, at the border, it's like a 75% decrease in Trump's first week in office.
As part of this raid, they they get the vicious trendy Aragua ringleader busted in New York City.
They had a picture of this guy from Aurora, Colorado, where they were denying, well, it's really not that bad here.
It was bad.
We had a shootout.
U.S. Border Patrol agents exchange gunfire with suspected cartel members near the U.S. Mexican border on Monday, as the government's response against criminal illegal immigrants continues to intensify.
Now, this take this all took place in an area where the gunfire exchange is unofficially known as Cartel Island due to the criminal activity there.
It occurred around 2 p.m. local time in Texas, and a group of illegals were attempting to cross the Rio Grande.
All bullets were fired, but didn't make it across.
Neither the border patrol agents nor the suspected cartel members were hit, but the area where the gunfire took took place is a well-known area where this this all happens.
And by the way, if you're interested, for those that are so against, and I know this liberal judge, they say it's a Reagan appointed judge, that he has a history of being very lenient and left.
But anyway, um, Donald Trump is trying to end birthright citizenship.
If you purposely enter this country, you know, uh for example, it used to be, you know, they used to call them anchor babies back in the day.
I don't know if it's politically correct anymore, but that's what they would do call them.
As many as 250,000 babies are born to illegal immigrant parents.
The last year we have data for is 2023, and that was for the Center for Immigration Studies.
And to put that figure into perspective, the number surpassed the rate of births in most states and nearly made up seven percent of all births in the country last year.
Now, that is taking advantage of our constitutional system.
And that was not what it was designed for.
I'm getting interested in watching all of you know, all of the name calling didn't work in the election.
It's not going to work now.
If you if you doubted where the left in this country was heading, well, now you know.
They're going straight back to what, you know, they're reverting to form Nazi Hitler, Stalin Mussolini.
You know, over 80% of Americans support Donald Trump's plan to deport these criminal illegal aliens.
A people conducted.
1,147 adults, 83% of Americans support deporting illegal immigrants living in the U.S. illegally, convicted of a violent crime.
Only 6% would oppose that.
Same poll found a solid plurality of American support for deportation for all illegal immigrants.
And MBC News, you know, there was a report yesterday, 60 some odd percent of people.
This is overwhelmingly supported.
Liberal Joe over at MSDNC is ripping ice.
Gestapo raids as a distraction from Trump enriching billionaire cronies.
These people are insane.
And this is why they have no viewers.
Because they've lied and they have fixated and focused for nine years on using the same type of language and just, you know, spewing out hate, lies, conspiracy theories, and had no problem at all weaponizing our justice system, politics our FBI, politics our intelligence community just for their own political agenda.
The Mexican president, Claudia Scheinbaum, claimed her government has been seamlessly working with President Trump and his administration to receive thousands of deported illegal immigrants.
Want to know why?
Because she, too, like Columbia's president, fears Donald Trump and knows that he will put those tariffs in place.
You had one pro um, what else?
Do we have border agents, by the way?
You know, record a shockingly low number of illegal crossings in week week one.
Trump's border czar had a pretty blunt message last night for Selena Gomez.
Where's the tears for the sex trafficked children?
The point we made on this show yesterday and on TV last night.
But I mean, it's I know I know she had to pull it down, but where where were the where were the other videos for all the murders that took place of American citizens?
All the raped Americans.
Where have any of these people on MSDNC or fake news CNN?
It's so disgusting.
Fake news Acosta is out.
Me and I had a little row back in 2018.
I'll tell you about that in a second.
But there's so much getting done that is good for the country.
On the economic front, we have another key inflation component beginning to decline.
I would imagine that's confidence in Donald Trump's policies.
The soaring price of oil during the Biden years played a very big role in inflation, as Kamala called it, the price of democracy.
Last week oil prices finally started to inch downward.
That's a bit of good news.
One bit of bad news, if you're like me, my diet basically consists of meat and eggs.
You know, I love the media and I love Democratic lawmakers.
Donald Trump said he'd promise immediately to lower food prices.
They denied for four years that we even had inflation.
Yeah, he has to put his policies in place.
He has to get the reconciliation bill done.
He has to get money coming in from energy independence to lower the cost of delivery of all these items to every store we go to.
Yes, that'll be done on day one.
He's he's put in in place the provisions that will get us there.
It's so stupid.
But egg prices, by the way, are estimated to increase 20% this year, uh, which is not great, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture's price outlook.
Beef, coffee, orange juice are among groceries with higher prices, but eggs are uniquely impacted because of this aggressive strain of avian flu.
Has nothing to do with Donald Trump unless you want to say he's responsible for avian flu, which I'm sure they'll be saying at MSDNC.
Um, uh, we're gonna get into this whole deep stake issue.
I will tell you, China's new cheap artificial intelligence spooked the markets yesterday as alarms that it is outperforming.
There always was a belief that China was behind on artificial intelligence.
It looks like that may not be the case after the release of their AI app, Deep Seek, it's called.
It rocked the tech world yesterday, soaring past Chat GPT as the global race to superintelligence is heating up.
We better get on this fast.
Donald Trump is appointed an AI czar, which I think is important.
And whatever they're doing.
This is what I've been talking about a gap of vulnerability.
The same thing that Ronald Reagan inherited.
Anyway, it resulted in massive AI sell-offs in this country.
A lot of lost money for people that have invested heavily in AI.
I don't know enough about it to invest heavily in it.
But uh the, you know, these stocks tumbled after China's deep uh Sikh AI models raised doubts about U.S. Tex dominance.
We better take it to the next level.
And we better prepare for the next generation of warfare.
And I told you, Donald Trump is beginning the Iron Dome building immediately, on top of everything else that he's been doing.
I mean, just in just this week, Justice Department employees tied to Jack Smith have been fired.
Why should they be allowed to remain there when you know that they're going to be there sabotaging Donald Trump?
I guess you can put him in an office and pay them, you know, but to do nothing, but they should not be anywhere near the Department of Justice if if they were part of the people that were responsible for weaponizing that department.
And Trump's Department of Education has ended these DEI initiatives, just like the military has and the DOD has.
The CDC, their staff has been ordered to cut off communications with the WHO, which Trump pulled us out of.
Thank God.
You know, Trump administration has now issued guidance for federal workers to return to work.
I bet you a lot of them say, eh, never mind, I wasn't really working anyway.
Let's see if I'm right.
Elizabeth Warren, Trump Musk, and I agree on something important, and I've got 30 ways to get it done.
Oh, she wants to cut back.
Meanwhile, he's a radical Marxist socialist.
I'll believe that when I see it.
Pete Heggseth and Senator Britt of Alabama accuse the Air Force of malicious pause as they reinstate, you know, some training programs.
Um Google says they will change the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America.
Another Trump win.
There was a good exchange yesterday.
I don't have time to get to it now.
Let me just take you back.
We're spending all this time talking about immigration and and we're watching the media hysteria unfold.
It just took a little longer than 2016.
Remember it happened, you had the women in the vagina hats coming out.
Remember that march?
I think an awful lot about blowing up the White House.
And we'll we'll play the idiots on MSD and C a little later in the program.
But let's just take a trip down memory lane.
You know, while Christy Noam is out joining ICE on raids, Alejandro Mayorcas, Kamala and Joe were lying to us.
Here's Mamay Orcas.
Secretary Myorkas, do you continue to maintain that the border is secure?
Yes, and we are working day in and day out to enhance its security, Congressman.
Do you believe that right now there's a crisis at the border?
I think that the uh uh the answer is no.
Uh I think there is a challenge at the border that we are managing.
Congresswoman, the border is secure and the border is not open.
Let me uh explain a very important uh make make a very important point, and that is that the border is secure.
The United States border patrol secures the border on behalf of the American people.
The bottom line is that U.S. borders are not open.
The border is closed.
The border, the border is secure.
The border, uh, we are working to make the border more secure.
That has been a historic challenge.
But you do think it's a crisis now.
Brett, it is a challenge uh that uh we uh been addressing vigorously with all of the tools and resources that we have been provided.
Our approach to managing the borders securely and humanely, even within our fundamentally broken immigration system is working.
My Republican colleagues claim that the border is open.
Is the border open, Mrs. Secretary?
No, it is not.
The bottom line is that U.S. borders are not open.
I'm curious what you meant last week when you said the border is closed.
Uh the border what I meant is um uh precisely that.
The border is closed.
We have seen the effectiveness of our approach.
We are making it very Clear that our border is not open, that crossing irregularly is against the law.
We don't bear responsibility for a broken system, and we're doing a tremendous amount within that broken system.
James Carville, Biden listened to the idiot left and didn't enforce the border.
Well, it took him a long time to get there, but you know, at least he's smart enough to finally acknowledge this.
Uh fake news CNN slam for very selective reporting of Chicago illegal immigrant raids by outraged locals.
Tom Holman demands an apology from the Illinois governor over the lie that ICE targeted a Chicago school, uh sowing fear.
Uh Trump I's asylum agreement with El Salvador to deport illegal immigrants back there.
Uh Doge's urge to defund the charity teaching illegal immigrants how to avoid ice.
That would be smart.
Uh we have now the Mexican people are angry at all of the illegal immigrants being sent back there.
And then Selena Gomez had to take down her crying video.
I mean, it is I I said this before.
You cannot reconcile issues with the left on these important issues.
Export Selection
