Benghazi, the truth became a web of lies.
From Prologue Projects and Pushkin Industries.
This is Fiasco Benghazi.
What difference at this point does it make?
Listen to Fiasco Benghazi on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
Music Well, what is up everybody?
Welcome to episode three of the rogue recap and surprise.
Everybody is still really terrible in Congress and doing a pretty terrible job.
Some more than others, like Ilhan Omar.
I think she might be my least favorite person in Congress.
But if this is your first time joining the Rogue Recap, I am Linda McLaughlin and I am here to cover all the stories you don't hear anywhere else, like the ones we're about to get into today.
And I I really am a little bit confused on why the news, the mainstream media, and local news for that matter, is allowed to not cover some of the things we're gonna go over today.
And I I just feel like there is this theme that life is really cheap.
It's just cheap.
And I think part of the problem is there's no value given from Go, right?
Here in America, we have a welfare system.
And if you've ever seen the movie uh Cinderella Man with uh Russell Crowe, he does this awesome role.
It's a true story of a boxer from Jersey.
Talks about how he went on hard times during the depression and the crash at the stock market in 29 and so on and so forth.
And he talks about how he was able to depend on the government and he was able to get funding and and pay for milk for his kids.
And when he got back on his feet, he repaid it.
But now we don't have that.
We have people having children because the more children you have, the more money you get out of the welfare system.
And it's really sick.
It's gross.
And what happens is you have a lot of kids who have parents who don't really care about them because they're stuck in this cycle of government dependency, which is what Democrats want because the more people that depend on the government, the more people that are going to vote in the Democrats that vote for big government, and so on and so forth.
I wonder sometimes you have all this advancement in uh technology and information and and yet we just seem so weak, uninformed, misinformed, and lethargic.
People just don't want to work.
They don't want to get up, they don't want to work, they don't want to go out.
The simplest of things.
You know, I have uh four kids and my youngest is nine.
He loves video games, and I don't mind him playing video games.
It's fine.
But it can't be all the time.
Our kids are all in sports, they play piano and they sing and they're in student government and all the things, and my husband and I are very involved, you know, in their lives, and I just think that that is what molds children.
You have to be present.
I also think strong faith is very important.
Um, you know, and and having that in your life and praying before you eat and thanking God for what you have.
No matter how hard times may be, trust me, they can always be harder.
And I think many of us have been there.
But there is an overarching theme, in my opinion, in America right now, where none of these sort of foundational strengths are found anymore.
They're just, they're gone.
It's creating this reckless behavior, this wanton behavior of we can do whatever we want, whenever we want.
We don't give a rip.
Nobody's gonna hold us accountable and piss off, right?
And to some degree, I guess that's true because we've completely and totally villainized the police department.
We've completely and totally villainized volunteer firefighters, and we've completely and totally taken all of their funding.
So they can't even do what they're supposed to do.
And then we've got these lunatic judges that are releasing rapists and murderers and uh people who rob people at gunpoint and carjackers and all these things.
Just no bail.
Just go ahead, don't do it again.
Uh what?
People are attacking police officers.
I mean, my God, I don't know about you guys, but when I was growing up, you used to yes or no, sir, and you kept it moving.
You know, you you didn't, you just tried your best not to even ever get in trouble.
These people are not only getting in trouble, they are looking for trouble.
They are going and attacking police officers in Times Square here in New York City.
They're attacking police officers when they get pulled over.
And instead of just obeying what the officer says, they talk back.
They don't give them the documents they're looking for.
They take a swing at the officer.
Thank God for body cameras, you know, because everybody put body cameras on thinking that they were going to get all these police officers in trouble.
And what it's actually doing is it's showing how completely and totally insane people are, whether you're pulling them over for a traffic stop or because you know you saw something wrong with uh, you know, with their registration or their license plate or whatever.
And people just lose their minds.
Just say whatever the hell they're thinking.
Like they don't give any, they don't even give it a second thought to the fact that you are speaking to a police officer.
Do you have a gun in the car?
Have you been drinking tonight?
Are you using drugs?
And it's like, you don't have the right to ask me that.
Uh, actually he does.
But I think this all comes from this sort of left-wing lunacy, right?
Like they've empowered this psychosis that's completely just it's run rampant throughout the country.
I don't know what is going on.
People who have no money have iPhones and tattoos up and down their body, and they're able to hang out all day and they don't have a job.
I'm like, well, I have so many questions for you because tattoos are really expensive and iPhones are really expensive, and Jordans are really expensive, and you're not working, you're home all day, you got plenty of time to talk trash on, you know, Snapchat or X or wherever you're at doing your social media, but you don't have time to get a job.
I don't know, there's just so much wrong with so much.
And then on top of it all, there's all these stories, which is where I started today, that are just not being covered.
And then there are people, elected officials who are out there saying the most outrageous and ridiculous things to the point that I'm like, what in God's great name?
And they go unchecked.
They go completely unchecked.
There's nobody saying, hey, yeah, that's utter and total nonsense.
You can just shut up now.
In fact, please shut up forever.
One of these people is Congresswoman Ilhan Omar.
Now, I want to be very honest with you.
I despise Ilhan Omar.
I think she is a liar.
I think she bought votes.
I think that she is everything that America is not.
Soup to nuts.
And when you hear her speak, she doesn't say how much she loves this country and how it is afforded her and her family a place to live that is safe.
She says, I miss Somalia.
My first love is Somalia.
But the problem is that you guys aren't in Somalia.
You're you're in America.
You know, that there's assimilation and then and then there's invasion.
And I think in many parts of this country, we are being invaded.
I digress.
So let's talk about Ilhan Omar and how awful she is.
Ilhan Omar came out this weekend and said the following.
I want you to take a lesson and then we'll come back on the other side and talk about it.
I would say uh uh our our country should be more fearful of white men across our country because they are actually um causing uh most of the deaths within this country.
We should be uh profiling, monitoring um, and uh and and creating policies to fight the radicalization of white men.
Uh-huh.
Let's talk about that for a minute.
She just said that one race and one gender was responsible for the majority of deaths in America.
Then she said that we should monitor and profile them.
The last time I checked, the words monitor and profile were considered racist and invasive and a complete and total offense to our rights and our freedoms as Americans.
And I think if we said that about any other color or religion, we would be called every name in the book.
You know, her as a Muslim woman, I'm sure if we said, well, you know, you're a Muslim and you know, radical Islam causes a lot of problems.
And women in radical Islam are also known to commit horrible and terrible terroristic atrocities.
So, you know, we we think that we should definitely monitor these things.
Nobody would ever in a million years allow, first of all, you couldn't say it.
Second of all, if you did say something so outrageous, the left would go completely berserk.
But this woman sat on a Sunday news show, intact an entire race, an entire group of individuals, and went completely unchecked.
The host says nothing.
He doesn't react, he doesn't say, well, why do you think that Ilhan?
What is the source of this claim?
What information and credibility do you have to back up such a statement?
No, none of that happens because they don't care.
They don't care because they are attacking people and they're on the left, and that's what they do.
So I thought we would take a look at just some of the most heinous crimes and deaths that have happened in the last few weeks.
And look at who committed those crimes, and then think about what Ilhan Omar said, right?
Let's just look at the news, news that no one else is covering, and talk about it for a brief moment.
So very sad, Jessica Lockwood, 39 years old from Pennsylvania, volunteer firefighter, ambulance tech, and a mother of two.
She was found burning Sunday morning.
She had been shot.
She had been bludgeoned in the head.
The perpetrator and attacker, his name is Terence Ray.
Jessica Lockwood is white.
Terence Ray is black.
So Terence Ray is not a white radicalized man.
Strike one against Ilhan Omar.
But I would hazard a guess and say that you have not heard of this case and you have not heard of Jessica Lockwood, and you have no idea that the pain that her family is going through right now.
And that was on May 1st.
Haven't heard about it.
May 3rd, we have a man who was arrested in the murder of a 22-year-old woman in her home.
Her name is Logan Federico.
She was murdered by Alexander Dickey.
Federico is a white girl, and Alexander Dickey is a black man.
So again, not keeping with the narrative set by Ilhan Omar.
This happened in Columbia, South Carolina.
They are investigating this.
No coverage.
No marches in the street, no burning down and looting of stores.
Nobody screaming justice for Federico.
Just, you know, thinking out loud here.
Just this past weekend, we have Gerson Fuentes, an illegal alien.
He pled guilty to raping and impregnating a nine-year-old girl from Ohio.
Nine.
This person raped a nine-year-old child.
Gerson Fuentes is not a radicalized white man.
Yet again, another strike against Ilhan Omar.
This past weekend there was also a rape of an 11-year-old girl by another illegal alien from Guatemala.
This little girl lives in Iowa, 11 years old, and raped by an illegal immigrant who never should have been here.
He is 20.
His name is Wilson Irwin Alvarildo.
Are you kidding me?
But Ilhan Omar doesn't care about him, right?
We're not going to talk about him because he's not a white radicalized man.
Got it.
Okay.
On May 4th, a 17-year-old young man was in a parking lot on Sunday night.
He was shot and robbed by three other young men.
The young man that was robbed and shot was a young white man.
The three kids that shot him and stole his wallet, three young black men.
But again, haven't heard about that anywhere.
Nobody's reporting on it.
No marches in the street.
On May 2nd, we have three illegal immigrants who kidnapped a mother and an infant from their home Tuesday morning in North Carolina because they wanted to hold them for ransom.
A million dollars they wanted.
Three illegal immigrants, not three white American radicalized men, three illegal immigrants, one of which was a woman, by the way.
So that really goes against your theory there, Ilhan.
On April 14th, this might be the one case you did hear about.
Austin Metcalf was murdered by Carmelo Anthony.
Here's the interesting part.
Austin is white, Carmelo is black, and people all over the country raised hundreds of thousands of dollars for the young black teen who murdered the young white teen.
Why?
Because he was black.
And then they talked about how happy they were that he killed a young white man.
Why?
Why are you happy about that?
What the hell is wrong with you?
Then we have a Norwegian tourist.
She was brutally attacked by an Iraqi migrant while she was in Italy.
I realize that this is an international story, but just want to show that this radicalization of white men really is just not a thing.
Even when we go outside of the country.
The Iraqi migrant raped her, broke her nose, and is out.
Because that's the other thing, right?
That's the other problem is we let all the criminals out.
They don't need to be held.
I have no idea what this no-bail thing is.
Even Kamala Harris was all for it.
On April 5th, 32-year-old Jacob Couch was sitting with his wife at a bus stop.
He and his wife were mourning the loss of their stillborn son when a man approached Jacob and his wife.
He was attacked with a hatchet by 25-year-old Daniel Michael.
To be clear, Jacob the victim was white.
The attacker, 25-year-old Daniel Michael, was black.
Not hearing about this story anywhere.
Why?
Why is it so hard to talk about the attacks of these horrible crimes that have happened to these young white victims?
I mean, these people are young.
They're all in their 30s, their 20s and their 30s.
I mean, it's heartbreaking.
And I'm not even naming everything.
I'm just naming the last couple of weeks.
And all of it is, why aren't we covering it?
I just feel like as a nation, we have to be at a point where we know murder is wrong.
I mean, I'm pretty sure that's a common theme.
But instead, we have a person in Congress that's coming out and saying really dumb things and really unfounded on sourced things, and it just stirs up more hatred.
And this is the left's agenda.
They're always stirring up hatred.
And that's why when people say to me, oh, you know, you shouldn't hate people, you know, uh, we're all God's children.
I'm sorry.
I hate a lot of people.
I think they're terrible, actually.
I think they're really, really bad.
And, you know, it's like anything else.
We're all God's children, but I don't have to like all your kids.
I may not like what you're saying, and I may not like what you're doing and or whatever, but that doesn't give me a right to kill you.
That's why we have a criminal justice system.
But the problem is the criminal justice system isn't working anymore.
It's completely and totally politicized.
It's completely and totally weaponized.
The wrong people are going to jail, the wrong people are getting out of jail.
It's just a mess.
And then you have other people, like this Jasmine Crockett.
And she was out there and she was talking, you know, the other day, she was at a college commencement.
She was giving a speech, which I just find so insulting.
She really is just ups.
She's she's she's like a walking cartoon.
I mean, she's doing dancing skits with her staffers.
I'm like, don't you have any work to do?
You have time to make videos of yourself dancing in your office?
What?
Why?
And then she goes out and and you know, she tells people to fight and she curses people out on the steps of Congress.
But I guess she can do that, right?
Because we're paying for her car, her car payment is on you know, taxpayers' time.
She's got around the clock security now, also on the taxpayers' dime.
And she likes to Make fun of people.
She's really into that.
So not too long ago, she was making fun of Governor Abbott because he's in a wheelchair.
We actually have that audio.
I'm gonna play that for you really quick, just as just as a reminder.
Um, because we in these hot ass Texas streets, honey.
Um we got Governor High Wheels down there.
Come on now.
And and the only thing hot about him is that he is a hot ass mess, honey.
So, um, so yes, yes, yes, yes.
Here's the interesting thing.
When she's making that comment, she is standing in front of a human rights campaign background.
Like, so she's speaking at some event for human rights while bashing someone who's in a wheelchair.
I mean, the irony is just you can't even make it up.
Like you say these things and you hear these things, and it's like this is real.
This is not a Babylon B story, this is not an onion story.
This is real.
These people are saying these things in open forum.
And why are they doing that?
Because they can.
Because they can, because we allow it, because we allow it.
And then today, she was traveling somewhere, and this was in the New York Post.
My friend Katie sent this to me, and I just was like, you know, like I read it at first and I was like, come on.
But supposedly she's she's in the airport, and she's cutting off passengers in wheelchairs.
She's flanked by security on either side, she's cutting everyone in line, and then she's making the disabled people in wheelchairs.
Wait, so that she can board the plane first.
Why?
Why are you doing that?
What what could possibly make you think that that's a good look and that's the right thing to do?
This is the kind of stuff that just really, you know, my father-in-law said this to me the other day.
He was like, you know, you should do a segment on what pissed me off today.
And I was like, man, that is a long list.
I'll tell you what, I mean, every single day, there's so many things.
It's almost impossible to narrow down.
And it today, I mean, I'm only talking about a few things as far as like representatives, but you look at all of those poor people who lost their lives.
They weren't doing anything.
One guy is at a gas station, one guy sitting at a bus stop, one girl's in her house, another woman is a volunteer firefighter.
Why are they dead?
Why were they murdered?
And why are we not talking about it?
This is the stuff that drives me nuts.
This is what pisses me off.
And if I know you, my audience, I'm sure it gets onto your skin too.
So I want to thank you for being here on the rogue recap.
Like I said, we're gonna hit the stories that nobody else is hitting.
We're gonna talk about the things that nobody else is talking about, and we're gonna do our best to bring it to you every single day because there really is so much news that there just is like not enough time to get to.
But before I let you go, I want to tell you one positive story, if you don't mind.
And this is a really really cool story.
So there are these two young kids, and they developed uh a pair of gloves so that when you sign, right?
When you're doing sign language, you are able to convert that sign language to speech or text so that you can communicate with hearing people.
There are two 19-year-old students, they're from the University of Washington, their names are Thomas Pryor and Navita Zodie.
Basically, people who are deaf or hearing impaired can put these gloves on, use sign language, and then they're able to take that sign language with these gloves and turn it into speech or text.
I mean, what a phenomenal idea.
Truly.
If you are a person who again is deaf or hearing impaired and you put these gloves on, it enables you, like let's say you have a job somewhere and you're working with hearing people.
Just think about how much easier that's gonna make your life for people who don't know how to sign, or maybe if you felt like you couldn't communicate with customers, if you're in some sort of retail setting, it just opens up so many doors.
That's the kind of stuff that's amazing.
That's the technology that makes me feel like wow, that's that's incredible.
And it just makes you happy.
Something positive for once.
