Music Hello and welcome to round two of the rogue recap.
I'm your host, Linda McLaughlin.
And I gotta tell you, I'm here with some good news today.
You may have heard the rumor, it is 100 days of Trump.
I know, I know.
I am so yourself.
I am so thrilled we don't have Joe Biden, and that to me is something to cheer about every single day that I get up out of bed.
And with God giving her that Joe Biden is no longer in the White House.
Not that he ever probably was.
I really am very concerned about who was running things there, but that's a whole other show.
Super excited about President Trump and all that he has done in a hundred days.
It it's just remarkable.
And I would say the thing that a lot of us voted for was to get illegals out of the country, right?
And I think one of the things that really pisses me off the most about illegal immigration is the amount of people that have done it the right way and how expensive and uh tedious and time consuming the lawyers and the process, like our immigration process is a hot mess.
It's not fun.
It's like the DMV times 100, any inner city DMV with no AC in the middle of the summer.
You know, I'm just trying to think of all the most horrible things, and that's our immigration system and process.
But putting to that to the side, that is our process nonetheless.
So we have to abide by it.
And many people haven't.
We allowed so many people to come into our country over the last four years, millions and millions and millions of people.
And I think the most horrible part of all of it was the amount of unaccompanied minors, right?
These UACs was the acronym they gave them.
So they come into the country.
I think the last probably the most horrible video that I saw at the end of the term of Biden's term was the two-year-old that crossed the border by herself and she had like a note.
It was like duct taped or pinned to her little jacket, and she's all by herself.
And I'm thinking to myself, what person is sending a two-year-old across the border by themselves.
Oh, I'm sorry, she's with a five-year-old.
How is that better?
I was super happy when President Trump was elected.
The last four months of seeing what he's been able to do.
Now we have all of these morons that are out there protesting at every single turn because they think that these illegal immigrants have some sort of right to do process and have uh rights that belong to citizens.
Seems completely lost on them that they are not citizens.
They are here illegally, and they are here illegally because they entered the country illegally and they broke our laws, and now they need to go.
And it doesn't matter if they're here 20 years, five minutes, it's all the same.
You gotta go.
If you leave now and you take your family with you, then you can enter at a later date.
For the left, all they see is the red flag of their voter base walking out the door.
And that's what they're really scared about.
It's got nothing to do with the illegal immigrants or their you know civil rights and civic duty and give me a break.
I mean, they don't even know what that stuff is.
I I I would be hard-pressed to find a Democrat that is out there every night, you know, with their little copy of the Declaration of Independence and the Bill of Rights and the Constitution, going now, if we look here at this amendment, give me a break.
I mean, Jasmine Crockett, AOC, Van Holland, Senator Schumer, Pelosi, are any of these people aware of any of these laws?
I highly doubt it.
But Stephen Miller today, he came out and he crushed the White House press court.
He was giving statements, you know, uh today during Caroline Levitt's uh typical one o'clock address to the press, and he, I mean, man, did he lay it out?
So I really want to feature that for a hot second and we'll talk about it on the other side.
Most of your papers never covered her story when it happened.
To the extent that you covered it at all, it was because President Trump forced you to cover it by highlighting it repeatedly over and over again.
He had to shame you into covering it.
And each and every one of you decides over and over again with these MS-13 terrorists, to the extent that you had the financial means to do so, you all choose to live in condos or homes or houses as far away from these kinds of gangbangers as you possibly can.
If I offered any one of you a rent-free home with no taxes to pay in any of these gang neighborhoods, and I said your neighbors are MS-13 terrorists or Mexican mafia or Sinaloa cartel or Trangua, I couldn't pay you to live there.
But yet you, with your coverage, are trying to force innocent Americans to have these people as their neighbors, and that one day their daughter may be abducted from their home and raped and murdered.
So you're not going to get an ounce of sympathy from this administration or President Trump for the terrorists who've invaded our homes in our country.
This is exactly what we're talking about.
The left is not experiencing anything that they're protesting against.
I wonder, and I don't wish this on anybody, let me be very clear, but I wonder if one of these Democrats was affected directly by these illegal aliens, if they would have the same opinion.
You know, if you want to keep these, you know, like look at the judge, right?
This guy Cano.
You know, he's arrested for harboring him and his wife, a Trent Aragua cartel member.
What in God's great name are you doing, bro?
You are a judge.
And he's got this guy living in his house and he's helping him and taking pictures of him.
He's hanging out with him on the holidays with his children.
I'm like, oh God, it's so this is the stuff that really, like when I when I think at night, what is going on with people?
What are you guys talking about?
Has everyone lost their mind?
And then you start to think, yeah, they have.
And even like when I see, you know, on social media, like especially X, I'm, you know, pretty much on X, if you want to follow me, I'm at Linda Mick or at Rogue Recap.
But I watch all of the things that these people are doing.
They're just wilding out.
They're doing crazy ass stuff.
Whether they're robbing a store, they're beating someone up.
And let me ask a question.
Have you thought about this?
This really boggles my mind.
It's it's if anybody ever saw the show, what would you do?
It was on ABC for a super long time.
I don't know if it's still on anymore.
But the show is called What Would You Do?
And they put you in these predicaments and they say to you, okay, you're in this situation, you see this guy, uh, he's out to dinner with his wife, and he's screaming and yelling at her.
Do you sit by and watch, or do you get up and say, hey, take it easy, all right?
Nobody deserves to be spoken to that way.
So my question is when you are watching an elderly person get robbed, when you are watching uh a single woman being harassed by a group of teenagers, when you are seeing uh, you know, a gang of people beating up one person on the ground and just it's disgusting, right?
It's so inhumane.
Why are you filming?
Why are you filming?
Why aren't you calling 911 as many times as you can doing something to help the person on the ground?
Are we all that afraid?
Are we all that self-absorbed?
I guess we are.
You know, I'm definitely that person.
My husband would tell you this every day of the week.
I am definitely that person.
I always got something to say.
If somebody's Doing something wrong, I am the first one to stand up and go, Oh, what are you doing?
Why are you doing that?
I don't think that's appropriate.
And typically I end up arguing or fighting.
It happens to me all the time on the subway, or you know, people who decide that they want to take up the whole sidewalk and then walk at the speed of death and you can't get where you're going, and they're walking four ply that drives me bananas.
You know, it's it's all these like little things, but it's just a complete and utter lack of common courtesy, right?
Whether you're in a store, you're going somewhere, and someone's just standing completely still because they're staring at their iPhone and they're unable to complete the, you know, what should be a pretty menial task of walking, looking up, you know, what is on your phone that you are so afraid to miss.
Don't get me wrong, I look at my phone too, but I don't look at it when I'm driving.
I don't look up when I'm walking, I don't look at it when I'm at the park with my kids.
It's just it's all very upsetting when I'm down the rabbit hole.
But you know, I hear Stephen Miller and he makes this amazing point, which is that the left had a very difficult time covering a very sad story of you know, Patty Morin and the loss of her daughter Rachel, and they didn't cover the story of the Nungaree family, they didn't cover cover the story of Kayla Hamilton, and they're and these are just the stories we know about, right?
I was reading the news today, and there's a story that's not getting a lot of coverage, and it's this father, he won a decade-long fight for justice for his daughter that was killed in Texas by an illegal immigrant.
And she was 13 when she was killed.
Now, this poor man had just lost his wife.
His wife had cancer.
She died 15 months prior to his little girl being murdered.
And his little girl was just crossing the street.
She was at a sleepover at a friend's house.
They had just moved to a new neighborhood.
He was trying to let her acclimate.
It was very difficult for him to do it.
He does it.
She crosses the street when they're out.
It's not late at night.
It's not in a major city.
They're in a little town in Texas, and this illegal immigrant, no license, no nothing, not looking where he's going, hit and run, kills her.
This guy is out on cash bond.
And his daughter is dead.
And he has to fight for 10 years to get this guy.
I mean, literally, he was behind bars for 35 minutes the night that his baby girl was murdered by him.
I mean, what the hell's going on?
And he had been, you know, returned to Mexico.
Uh, he had a warrant out for him.
I mean, there's just no shortage of things wrong with this guy.
And this little girl has her life just snuffed out by him.
And our justice system says, meh, it's all right.
We'll let him go.
It's okay.
Then he's filing a petition for relief, you know, and and ice is fighting.
They're going up against all of these, you know, liberal left administrations.
And this guy is just trying to get justice, right?
And 10 years later, finally, 10 years later, he does get justice.
And his little girl can finally have some sort of, you know, memory that is not tainted by the person who murdered her being able to walk around free.
And after all these years, this guy, just in March, it looks like March 26th, ICE arrested this guy, and now he's being removed from the country.
And now this man who lost his wife and lost his daughter can finally say, I did everything I could.
You know, my little girl is no longer with me, but at least I've done everything I can to honor her memory and put the guy who took her life away far too soon, 13 years old.
But not one Democrat is helping this guy.
They're not calling him.
They're not visiting him like they're visiting this MS 13 member in El Salvador.
We gotta have another woman here, another story.
I doubt you've heard it anywhere.
Louisiana widow.
Her husband is gone.
But she's thankful for President Trump.
And that's what she was, she was on Fox and Friends, and she told, you know, Fox and Friends, she said, in a hundred days, the president has kept his word.
And maybe, just maybe, his laws will help another woman not lose her husband.
And this is another situation.
This guy's name was Wesley Hayes.
He was killed by an illegal immigrant, illegal immigrant just this October who was driving drunk.
So a person who was never supposed to be here, shouldn't be in our country, was led in by President Biden and Kamala Harris, is out and about having a great time, gets too drunk, and kills some poor guy who's you know doing nothing wrong, has a brand new baby, and you know, now his wife is a widow and his daughter is fatherless.
Why?
Why is this not?
I I just don't understand why more people are not as outraged as a lot of us are, right?
And there's just too many of these stories, just way, way too many of these stories.
And I think that's the thing that really breaks my heart.
By the way, the little girl that died in in uh 2014, her name was Chrisha Odette.
So Chrisha Odette and Wesley Hayes, among so many others that have been taken far too soon by illegal aliens.
We're thinking of you, and we're so grateful that we have a president that is finally on board with us and and wants to do the right thing by us.
And then, you know, you have people in elected office, whether it's Jasmine Crockett or Chuck Schumer.
Let's just run through.
So let's let's play Jasmine Crockett, genius that she is, uh, and what she thinks about what's happening with the deportations.
As far as I'm concerned, you randomly kidnapping folk and you're throwing them out of the country against their civil rights, against their constitutional rights, and frankly, how would they feel if some other country decided that they were going to start throwing people randomly in our country?
Like that is absolutely insane.
So, yes, all I gotta say is y'all need to get these fools out of here.
But I'm but Uh-huh.
So, first of all, I can barely understand her most of the time because she's doing all these selfie videos because that's what all elected representatives of Congress do, right?
They walk around the halls of Congress and they um film themselves saying things that make absolutely no sense.
And so she's standing there and she's talking about people that are being deported for being here illegally.
In the next breath, she's talking about their due process and their constitutional rights.
This is an elected member of Congress, folks.
I mean, could she be any more dumb?
I mean, I guess she could, right?
Because there's so many of them.
But it's like I am completely and utterly blown away by her ignorance and her in her complete insensitivity to the people that have lost loved ones at the hands of illegal immigrants and not understanding why these deportations matter, you know, not understanding how many children have are being trafficked, sex trafficked and human trafficking and what have you.
And she just doesn't have a clue.
She just says whatever she wants.
She just, you know, hey, this is what's going on, and it's so unfair.
And in the next breath, she says, can you imagine people just, you know, in the middle of the night being shipped to your country?
And I'm like, um, ma'am.
Are are you not aware of the flights that happened all over the United States during the Biden administration where they flew children and people with no paperwork, they showed up with these strange manila envelopes, and all of these uh major commercial airlines were chartered by the U.S. government to fly them all over the country and put them in all these different locations so that ICE and border patrol would never see them?
You are aware of that, right, ma'am?
Okay, we'll just leave that there for a minute because you can only fix stupid for how long, right?
Now, during the cabinet meeting uh a couple days ago, the president had a two-hour cabinet meeting to go over what every division of his government was covering, which was amazing.
And he literally just puts them on his spot.
He's like, What are you doing?
What's going on?
And I'm sure that there's some conversation prior to that, but he's really at it.
He's he's asking them the hard questions.
So he says, he says, uh, he says, you know, what's going on with HHS?
And RFK starts to talk about all the amazing things that he's doing to protect us from food dyes and chemicals in our foods.
Then he says the following.
And this got such little play, and I have to say I was very, very surprised.
But take a listen.
We have ended HHS as the role as the vector, the principal vector in this country for child trafficking.
And uh during the Biden administration, HHS Became a collaborator in child trafficking and for sex and for uh for slavery.
And we have ended that, and we're very aggressively going out and trying to find these children.
300,000 children that were lost by the Biden administration.
Oh my God.
This guy just said the quiet part out loud.
This is what we have been talking about.
They are taking children from these other countries.
They're bringing them here unaccompanied and saying that they're going to various um uncles, cousins, aunts, friends, homes.
They're not.
They're being pimped out by our government.
Because in one of the most disgusting discoveries of all of my research while working in news, the United States is the worst purveyor.
We are the biggest perpetrators in sex and child trafficking.
Why is America this consumer of something so horrible?
What the hell is wrong with people?
Why do you want to hurt a child, let alone abuse a child?
When you look at a child, it is a gift from God.
You should be protecting it.
And instead, you want to rape it, you want to beat it, you want to murder it?
Because that's what's happening.
And our government, under Biden, was allowing it to happen.
One of the first things that Biden revoked when he became president was the child trafficking laws and the sex trafficking laws that President Trump had put into law.
And he made sure that those laws protecting child traffickers and sex traffickers, he put them all back into action.
He said, Oh no, no, no, we're going to protect those people.
Because I'm telling you right now, that's a racket.
And the fact that the Health and Human Services Department of the United States government is somehow a conduit for allowing this.
All right, on to our next idiot.
Here's another person who really baffles me.
This guy goes in front of Senate yesterday and says that he's going to kill the bill, DOA, dead on arrival, for the Save Act.
So the Save Act is basically saying that when you go to vote, which is a massive civic duty, that you have proof that you are a citizen.
This to me seems like it should be pretty basic.
Somehow, Schumer is saying that the Save Act is about Jim Crow.
I have no idea how this man is tying this together, but take a listen.
They don't understand the sacredness of elections and keeping them fair.
The kind of legislation, the kind of executive orders, which are so jaundiced, so slanted on the side of one party, are the antithesis of democracy.
Thank you.
On the one side, Donald Trump recently issued an executive order that coer will coerce states to prevent millions of Americans from voting.
On the other, Republicans in Congress are pushing the SAVE Act, one of the most destructive, dangerous voter suppression bills in recent memory.
It is very reminiscent of Jim Crow.
That's what Republicans want to do.
They want to restore, they want to not only restore Jim Crow in the South, they want to have Jim Crow spread from one end of this country to the other.
It will not happen.
It will not happen.
Let me be clear.
Every Senate Democrat, every single one of us is united against it.
They need 60 votes.
The SAVE Act is dead on arrival.
I'd like to say it louder so my friends in the House and in the right wing over here can hear.
The SAVE Act is dead on arrival.
Democrats So the guy who is a Democrat, and let me tell you something, Chuck Schumer, I don't even know if he's a Democrat.
He's really just whoever pays him the most to say whatever he's saying.
But he seems to be very lost on what the Save Act is all about.
It's not a suppression of voting.
It is about liberating voters.
It's about giving real voters real citizens the right to cast the vote for those who lead their country.
Why should anybody who's not a citizen of our country be voting for the leadership of our country?
Unless, of course, they think they can elect more Democrats with people who are not citizens because the Democrats are letting the illegals into the country and therefore would give them more power.
That makes a lot of sense.
But of course, Chuck's not going to say it like that.
And then To go back to Jim Crow, something that started in the 1880s and you know went through the 1960s, and he's talking about the Save Act is somehow connected to this racial segregation that we have of blacks and whites.
What how is this a connection?
By the way, the 13th Amendment abolishing slavery.
That was from the Republicans.
The emancipation proclamation, that was Abraham Lincoln.
But see, he doesn't want to have a history lesson.
He doesn't want to go through what actually happened and who did what when.
He just wants to pontificate so that they go out and they act, but he, you know, he has no liability.
So if somebody says, oh, the Save Act, yeah, that's all about Jim Crow, and then the other person's like, what?
No, it's not.
That's the other problem, right?
You go and you look at the legislation, and it tells you exactly what it's for, what it stands for, who it stands for, and why.
But if you go to most of these um, you know, elected officials, I mean, half of them are on their phones playing God knows what and not paying attention, and then they get up to vote.
And I'm like, you weren't even listening.
You don't even know what's in the dang bill.
It is so frustrating to me to see the grandstanding and how fake it is on either side of the aisle, to be perfectly honest with you.
Just do what you're supposed to do.
You know, if we elect you to go in there and represent us, just go in and do it.
Stop pretending like you give a rip if you don't.
It really is so infuriating.
And and life is hard enough to be perfectly frank with you.
You know, it's like I'm so sick of fighting about everything and not having one single common sense conversation.
And let me tell you, there is a serious lack of common sense.
We have all this technology and all this information and all of this media, and nobody's reading.
Nobody's actually reading.
And when you have a conversation with people, even if you're having a debate, they're not listening to you.
They're thinking about the thing they want to say next.
There's nothing more irritating than that.
I've started a new thing going, okay, what did I just say?
Go ahead, I'll wait.
They can't answer.
You know why?
Because they weren't listening.
They were thinking about this amazing thing that they were gonna say, and guess what?
It's not so amazing.
Because it has nothing to do with what I just said, but you would know that if you were listening, but I digress.
So, one other piece of news I want to give you guys that I don't think is getting any attention before I head out.
You may have heard that uh there was a group of arsonists that set fire to some of the irrigation and the gardens that uh are in Israel.
And one of the things as a person who's been to Israel several times, it's it's a beautiful country.
But one of the most amazing things that the Israeli people have done is they've been able to irrigate in the desert.
So you'll go over to the where there's like it would have it was just desert, and they have these uh irrigation rows and they have rose bushes and all of this vegetation.
So these Palestinian lunatics come over and they commit arson, and I think they caught like 17 or 18 of these arsonists in the last 24 hours, but they set everything on fire just to destroy it.
It, you know, because that's what they do, that's what Palestinians do.
They are the party of hate, they are the people of hate.
It's disgusting, and that will definitely be another show.
But so they set all of this on fire, and it starts to rain in the desert.
Literally, a rainstorm comes in the middle of the desert.
I mean, if you don't think that's God, I don't know what is.
Not only did it start to rain and wash out the fires, over on the side of Gaza, where the arsonists were running back to, a sandstorm kicked up coming in from I think it was Egypt.
And they were completely, I mean, the footage, if you go on X, it's bananas.
These people are completely encapsulated in this massive sandstorm, they can't see anything.
So the arsonists are trapped in the sandstorm, they end up getting arrested.
There's, you know, people can't move in Gaza, and the fire that they started in Israel to hurt the Jewish people was washed out by a rainstorm.
I mean, you can't, that's biblical, man.
It's ridiculous.
So, as far as I'm concerned, that's definitely a sign from above, and I believe in that stuff.
I don't know if you do, but we'll hear more about that as we go.
So uh that's all the time we have today.
I love being with you.
I hope that you'll tell me what you want to hear about.
There's so much news, and every day we're gonna try to get to some of these stories that we just don't have the time to get to as the day goes on, and maybe you've missed, and hopefully I'm bringing you some of the things that you haven't heard before.
