Speaker 1 (00:00):
Can I am six forty. You're listening to the John
Cobelt Podcast on the iHeartRadio app and we're on every
day from one until four, and then after four o'clock
it's John Cobelt's show on demand on the iHeart app.
You can follow us at John Cobelt Radio at John
Cobelt Radio. We're trying to get to twenty thousand followers
by the end of the year, and we're getting close.
I mean, there's a lot of border news because Tom
(00:21):
Homan is going out on a full scale publicity tour,
is going to various spots at the border and making
it clear to everyone in this country and in all
the foreign countries and all the politicians that party's over.
We are going to be deporting lots and lots of people,
starting with the criminals and the gangsters and the terrorists,
working our way down to the huge numbers that applied
(00:44):
for asylum and lost their case. Nine out of ten
lose their case and they have been ordered gone by
a judge, and they ignored that order. The US didn't
enforce it. So Holman said, we're going after those people.
Let's talk with Todd Bensman. Now, Todd just wrote a
column about reviving Trump's Remain in Mexico policy and how
it really calmed down the border the first time the
(01:07):
policy was in effect back in twenty nineteen, and of
course anything successful that Trump had Biden undid it when
it came to the border policy. Let's get to Todd.
Ben's bean on Todd, how are you?
Speaker 2 (01:16):
I'm doing great, Thanks for having me.
Speaker 1 (01:18):
First thing, if you noticed any anything different going on
now that Trump is won, and that there's been a
lot of tough rhetoric from him and Tom Homan, anything
on the ground that people could see who've been analyzing
this situation for years.
Speaker 2 (01:32):
Yes, Well, the numbers of illegal crossings is are dropping.
Whereas you know, we were in the three thousand, four
thousand a day range for quite a while. We're now
at under two thousand, eight hundred, one thousand, seven hundred
a day, and those numbers are dropping for a couple
of reasons. One is that Homan is out there on
(01:53):
the stump warning everybody, Like you said in the intro,
you can come if you want, but we're going to
deport you. So want to spend the ten thousand dollars
to get here, You're going to lose it. That's basically
how they hear that. And two, Trump himself has threatened
a couple of times now, the Mexican president that if
she lets anybody come through, even during the transition period here,
(02:17):
that it's going to be progressive trade tariffs. Again, he's
already saying, Look, it's already going to be twenty five
percent as soon as the day I get into office.
If you want that to go away, you're going to
have to comply with all of our policies. If you
don't comply, it's going to go to fifty percent, then
seventy five percent, and one hundred percent, which would leave
(02:38):
Mexico's economy in a smoking ruin. So they're paying attention
down there and blocking them up, catching them with their
military and turning them around, breaking up the caravans, all
of that kind of thing. So it already is having
an effect. I call it the Trump effect. We had
Trump effect one point zero back in twenty seventeen, and
(02:59):
now we've got Trump Effect two point zero in twenty
twenty four.
Speaker 1 (03:03):
You just wrote an article we have it here in
the Cederalist dot com about reviving Trump's remain in Mexico policy. First,
one into effect in twenty nineteen. Can you explain, for
people who don't keep track of all the details, how
did it work and why was it so successful?
Speaker 2 (03:18):
I wrote the column because the American people are going
to be hearing a whole lot about this policy very soon.
It'll be implemented again on day one, probably at high
noon or just after high noon January twentieth. Remain in
Mexico is a very consequential policy and important policy coming
(03:40):
right out of the gate. In this way, what it
attacks is the central motivating incentive for illegal crossing, which
is that if I cross and I claim asylum, they'll
let me in to wait for the full backlog five
years till adjudication, during which time I'm laying down routes,
(04:02):
I'm having children, I'm disappearing, et cetera, and become very
difficult to ever deport. What Remain in Mexico does is
says we're going to push you back right away. You
can go through the asylum claim of an asylum claim,
but you're going to wait the whole thing in Mexico,
not inside the United States, so you can't just disappear.
(04:22):
That just removes the whole thing. I mean the whole
point of why they come is to claim bogus asylum
and get in for years at a time, nobody is
coming for the great Mexican dream, as I write in
the column. And so back in twenty nineteen, when this
policy was in place, I went down to Juarez and
(04:44):
interviewed a whole bunch of expellees. What are you going
to do? How did this affect your thinking? And that's
all in the column. But the bottom line is that
they were all going home. In fact, so many were
going home that the un organized bus rides all the
way down into Central America they were filling up three, five,
(05:04):
ten every day with the expellees who really all of
a sudden didn't care about asylum. They were, you know,
all of a sudden their home villages were perfectly fine
to return to, not death traps.
Speaker 1 (05:17):
Yeah, well that's the thing. Most of the people who
apply for asylum get turned down. Could you explain generally,
what are the requirements to get asylum approved. I mean,
you have to meet a specific definition of.
Speaker 2 (05:35):
You have to show a preponderance of evidence that your
home government persecuted you on the basis of race, religion,
sexual orientation, membership, and a social class or your political orientation,
party membership, or whatever it is, and that you were
being persecuted so you had to flee in order to survive.
(06:00):
And if you can convince a judge in the United
States of that, then you know, will grant you, you know,
a residency on a path to citizenship. The problem is
that the vast, vast majority of people that are using
that system are turned down eighty ninety because they're just lying.
(06:24):
There's no they can't prove it, and it's just generally
not true. Most American people, you know, think that these
are people who are fleeing certain death and destruction, but
the vast majority of them are lying about that. That
is not true. They just know that those are the
magic words that the dumb Americans will accept to let
(06:47):
you in remain in Mexico just you know, eviscerates the
whole the whole game, right, that's the power of it.
Speaker 1 (06:58):
That's why they, oh, their asylum claims your bogus. But
they also know that once you get into America it'll
be years before there's an asylum hearing, and even if
you lose, they don't come after you.
Speaker 2 (07:09):
There's no point in having a law like this where
you go all the way through our due processes and
then get a decline and a removal order, and then
we don't follow through. You know, with millions and millions
and millions of people, what's the point. The point is
that it's just used to get in and stay in,
(07:30):
all right.
Speaker 1 (07:31):
I'm the whole thing is one big racket, isn't it.
Speaker 2 (07:33):
It really is. Listen, if you had to cross you know, five, six, eight,
ten countries that are perfectly safe to find safe haven
only in the United States ten countries away, you're a liar.
You did not need asylum. You're you're an economic opportunist,
(07:54):
which is something different. Asylum does not cover people who
live in poverty or are victims of you know, regular
street clime or whatever it is. Doesn't cover that. It's
for government persecution.
Speaker 1 (08:07):
Yeah, and the Biden administration knows this and let it
all happen anyway.
Speaker 2 (08:11):
They know my design. But everybody understands. Everybody understands this game.
Everybody understands it, except the average American right does not
understand it.
Speaker 1 (08:23):
All right, Very good, Todd Bensman, thank you for coming.
Speaker 2 (08:25):
On, great to be here. Thank you for having me.
Speaker 1 (08:28):
He explains things very well. Uh yeah, just just to
amplify that, you do know that this is all a
big racket. Everybody in the Biden administration, in the Mexican government,
this is this is all the drug cartels. It's all
play acting these people. And he's got examples. If you
go to the Federalist dot com and the headline is
(08:49):
why reviving Trump's remain in Mexico policy will slit swiftly
reduced border chaos. Todd Benzman's his name. Go read this
and you'll see all these people are coming because they
want to get better. You can a deal. But they're
not in any danger at all. They're not being persecuted,
they're not under the threat of violence, no such thing.
It's just everybody knows you claim asylum and that you'll lose,
(09:12):
but it doesn't matter because the federal government doesn't come
and get you anyway, so you just stay. It's and
you know, we have to pay the tremendous cost of
giving benefits to these people one way or the other.
I mean, in California, it costs tens of billions of
dollars to give illegal aliens what they need to get
(09:36):
by even their better deal doesn't mean they can live
independently without our help. I mean, you know, just just
the cost of schooling and medical care for example, Right,
it's billions of dollars, and it takes away from American citizens,
takes away from poor people here, school children here, just crazy.
(09:57):
All right, more coming up.
Speaker 3 (09:58):
You're listening to co Belt on demand from KFI AM
six forty.
Speaker 1 (10:04):
All right, so almost sixty percent of the country. And
to me, this is the central issue. I mean, I mean,
there's like way too much there's way too much internet,
there's way too much television. Everybody's filling time with all
sorts of ridiculous, absurd theories. On the election, it is
(10:26):
always first, second, and third about whether people feel like
they're doing well, that they have a job, that they're
going to keep their job. The job is paying them
enough money, and they don't have bills that are making
life difficult. Right, They're getting ahead of the game, even
if they're just a little ahead of That's all the
elections usually are. Okay, sometimes you get unusual events in
(10:51):
the world, but for the most part, your basic generic
election is how is everyone feeling and who do they
trust on that issue? And when I saw this today.
It's a study that's been done by wallet Hub. They
do financial surveys. They found that almost sixty percent of
(11:12):
the country say they're struggling with their debt, and half
are worried about the impact of their debt on their children.
Almost half of the Americans say the debt is taking
a toll on their health. That's how worried they are.
They claim that debt and financial stress affects their well being.
(11:33):
And about forty percent think their household debt is going
to increase over the next year. So whatever they have now,
forty percent of the country thinks, oh, year from now,
it's going to be even worse. Now. The thing is,
the polling showed this all year, and I think the
polsters intentionally lied the networks and New York Times, they
(11:57):
intentionally lied with their story about it. Oh it's neck
and neck, it's even It's like, no, it's not. Do
you know. I think the uh, the percentage of people
who strongly approved of Joe Biden's administration was only seventeen percent.
That was strong approval seventeen percent. And there's a whole
bunch of statistics like this approval versus disapproval, and there was.
(12:21):
There was a line today in one of the stories,
it's like, no president has no party or president has
ever been re elected with numbers like that. It really
doesn't matter what Trump did. As long as he was
talking about the economy inflation, he was gonna win because
Kamala comes out and says, I wouldn't do anything different.
(12:44):
What believe me that one line, that one moment on
the view that sunker campaign for sure. Credit card is
the most prevalent type of debt. Fifty one percent of
respondents saying they have un manageable credit card bills. And
it used to be I thought, well, a lot of
(13:05):
that's your fault because people just are compulsive spenders. They
don't understand math, They don't understand that if you, I
don't know how a twenty or a twenty nine percent
interest rate on your credit card, it's going to get
out of hand real fast. But not with thirty percent
inflation that was entirely created by the government, the Federal Reserve,
Biden Kamala's spending period. End of story. And so you know,
(13:30):
people are paying people can't pay their food bills and
their rent bills because of all the inflation going on
and then a research company called Blueprint twenty twenty four
did a post election investigation. The number one reason that
voters gave for not supporting Kamala Harris inflation was too high.
(13:55):
The differential there was twenty four points twenty four percent
more twenty four percentage points. People said they voted for
Trump over Harris because of inflation, so that was at
plus twenty four. Immigration was at plus twenty three. And
(14:17):
the third reason Harris too focused on cultural issues rather
than helping the middle class. She was behind by seventeen
points on that. So she's behind by twenty four points
on inflation, twenty three on the border seventeen that she
was too focused on culture reals. That is the damage
that transgender ad did to Kamala Harris. That was absolutely
(14:37):
devastating because that is what people have felt, they have
known for all these years. Too much on woke nonsense,
woke garbage. Nobody wants to hear about transgender stuff, racial stuff,
all of that. They're fed up with the language police.
Nobody's going to win. And you could believe in this
(14:59):
stuff to the day you die. If you're trying to
run on that, you're going to lose and You're going
to lose badly. It's only gonna get worse. Shut up
about it already, Stop it. There's nothing new to say,
and nobody wants to hear you say it anymore. So
I'm looking here. What they did is they scored the
(15:21):
relative importance of these issues, and those were the top three. Inflation,
too high under Biden, too many immigrants crossing. Kamala focused
on cultural issues instead of the middle class. See coming
out and saying I was born in a middle class family.
You know, I was born in a middle class family.
You know. Did you hear I was born That's not
(15:43):
a policy. That is not a policy. Other important issues,
the debt rose too much under the Biden Harris administration. Yeah,
Kamala Harris is too similar to Joe Biden. Yes, Kamala
would let it. Too many immigrants. Yes, there you go
two issues, economy, inflation and immigration. That's it. All other
(16:10):
analysis is idiotic, stupid. I've seen black men blamed for it,
Hispanic men blamed for it, white women blamed for it,
all these demographic groups. No, no, no, most everyone's saying
was fed up with the inflation. Sixty percent have debt problems.
(16:31):
That's everybody, male, female, black, white, the whole, you know, gay, straight, everybody.
Stop it. Focus on what matters when you when you
cover elections, when you're in politics, Stop with the nonsense.
Stop persecuting people.
Speaker 3 (16:47):
You're listening to John Cobels on demand from KFI A
six forty.
Speaker 1 (16:52):
The city of Burbank has been trying to euthanize a
dog named Conan. Conan is a pitbull and Conan's owners
took him on a walk and they ran into a
neighbor and he bit the neighbor. I gave that person,
well it's a woman. Gave the woman a warning bite.
(17:13):
And Conan's owners say that the woman had been harassing
the dog for months and so Conan reacted to seeing her.
Speaker 4 (17:25):
And what's the warning bite? I mean, was it just
a little nip?
Speaker 1 (17:28):
Well, pit bulls they can go right for your juggler.
Speaker 4 (17:30):
I get it. But I mean we haven't heard. I mean,
is this woman in the hospital, is she dying?
Speaker 1 (17:35):
Well, we're going to talk now to Sheerra scott Astrov.
She's a spokesperson for Conan's owners and she's also with
Animal Rescue Mission, and we're going to talk about what
happened and then what went on at the hearing, because
there hasn't been a decision from what I understand, So
let's get share on welcome.
Speaker 5 (17:57):
Thank you. Can you hear me?
Speaker 1 (17:59):
Okay, yes I can. Uh so. A lot of people
have heard the headline can you can you tell the
story about about what happened when Conan's owners about what
are the names.
Speaker 5 (18:11):
Sylvia Franco and.
Speaker 1 (18:14):
Nelson grand right, Nelson and Sylvia. Yeah, their their names
are in the in the news stories yesterday. So Nilson
and Sylvia are walking Conan and they run.
Speaker 5 (18:24):
Actually that that part of the story is wrong in
the media. Sylvia was standing in front of her home,
so they the front of our home is an alleyway,
and she was standing in front of her home like
holding off something, you know, doing housework, and the neighbor
(18:47):
walked up to her in the albey I see.
Speaker 1 (18:50):
And then Conan was just walking around freely.
Speaker 5 (18:55):
Conan was in their home. They they have like is
iron gate that's normally closed. It wasn't closed at the time.
And ConA and heard, you know, kind of his mom
talking to this not talking the woman talking to his
mother and this is a woman that has been her
(19:16):
assing Conan for a long time. He basically went out
to make sure his mother was okay. He stood next
to her, and then the woman started doing her thing.
I have to tried lightly because I don't want to
talk too much about the woman, but she you know, yeah,
(19:37):
there were.
Speaker 1 (19:38):
There was media reports that she would scream at the dog.
Speaker 5 (19:42):
Yeah, she would scream and kick the fence. And this
went on multiple times a day. And she you know,
I supposed to some of the other neighbors, she does
it to them as well. She's he's kind of you know,
he can she's can be scary. And so Conan is
already afraid of this person, and his mother kind of
(20:05):
stands behind him, and the woman kept, you know, flailing
her arms, and he gave a warning bite and and yeah,
I mean a warning bite from an eighty pound pit
It's not going to look pretty.
Speaker 1 (20:19):
Yeah, where was the bite on her arm? And he
chomped on the arm and held the bite for a moment.
Speaker 5 (20:31):
Well, the behaviorist yesterday in court said it's considered a
warning bite because it was like a one bite. But
you know what we have to understand, as an eighty
pound dog, like even a warning bite, it's not gonna
it's not gonna look pretty, but yeah, so he gave
a warning bite. They said it lasted either of fifteen
to twenty seconds, and Sylvia called for her husband. He
(20:55):
ran out and he said Conan drop it or Conan
let go, and know, amily let go, and then Conan's
mom called an ambulance. And you know, the parents are
so nice, like they're just the sweetest people. So they
didn't know to do things that most people wouldn't know
(21:16):
to do, like, for instance, I wish they got a
restraining order against this woman a while ago. I wish
they had a camera in front of their house, you know,
things that like really nice, sweet people don't think of.
Speaker 1 (21:26):
You know, right to prove that there was ongoing harassment,
that explained why.
Speaker 5 (21:31):
Did Yeah, but you know, they had no idea that
this would happen. But you know, if it were me,
I would have a camera from my house immediately. I
would have a straining order, you know. But like, you know,
really I don't know, like most people who are civilized
and sweet and calm and just you know, live a
simple life, love their dogs, they don't think about those
(21:53):
things all.
Speaker 1 (21:54):
Right, So I assume the police were then called and
the dog was taken away and now city of Burbank
has declared cone and dangerous and they're going to have
to kill the dog.
Speaker 5 (22:02):
No, that's no listen to this. It's been eleven months
since it's happened. The dog has been with them the
entire time. Dangerous eleven months ago in January. How dangerous
do they really think he is? By the way, this
is the sweetest dog. I have now spent so much
time with him, and I run an animal rescue. I've
(22:24):
been an animal rescue for over thirty years. This is
Conan is so well behaved, and they are the parents
that I want for every dog, Like he sleeps in
their bed. He's the center of their world. He's their
only child.
Speaker 1 (22:39):
What what What is the City of Burbank's interest in
carrying on for all this time?
Speaker 5 (22:46):
So that's the biggest question everyone has. I am shocked
at this. Why they are putting all their time and
resources into murdering a dog that clearly poses the threat,
Like there have been multiple trainers that said this was
an isolated incident and he was provoked, And if a
(23:07):
dog is provoked in the city of Bourbonk, you cannot
punish the dog for that. I don't know why they're
going so hard. My only guess is that this animal
control officer who basically fabricated this whole report is now
just in it too deep. But I really don't understand,
especially now that all the city officials in Burbank know
(23:30):
that so much of this report was falsified, there were
documents missing, there were latent lives, why they even let
it get thus far. Oh and so after the incident,
the city of Burbank seemed like they made a ruling
that he gets killed immediately based on just complete.
Speaker 1 (23:50):
False When the city issues the death penalty, here is
there the name of someone or is there some death
penalty committee? It's it was.
Speaker 5 (24:00):
It wasn't even poor judge. It was like hearing in
Burbank on zoom. And I'm not sure who decides that.
Speaker 3 (24:06):
I know that the.
Speaker 5 (24:07):
Senior animal control officer that is kind of behind this
whole thing, she was on it. I don't know if
she makes that decision or if the city attorney does.
But once that happened, then the family got a lawyer,
and then what we've just been in is the appeal hearing.
Speaker 1 (24:26):
Well, they had to get Conan out of town. I
think they had to find like a safe house for ConA.
Speaker 5 (24:34):
Like the a eight years old. He's never spent more
than like three hours away from his dad. Like they're
so attached. And these poor people like they've just been
through such help. They don't have the money to be
doing any of this. They're just the nicest, nicest people.
Speaker 1 (24:51):
These are these petty bureaucratic tyrants. They have a tiny
bit of power and it makes them crazy. It's like
a narcotic all right. So the judge is going to rule.
Speaker 5 (25:01):
When closing arguments are via zoom on Monday, so I
assume we will have a decision next week.
Speaker 1 (25:12):
I see, Well, I think Conan should live. I know
how Debra is going to vote here. Of course we're
not on the committee, but can we Can you come
on next week and let us know what happened?
Speaker 5 (25:27):
Absolutely, I absolutely yeah.
Speaker 1 (25:29):
Maybe maybe we'll drive Conan to a safe house, although
we be charged, probably meet him. Well, I'm a little
skinnish about pit bulls. No, I want to make it clear,
I'm a little biased against pit bulls, but I understand
here Conan is being treated unfairly.
Speaker 5 (25:48):
Well, I think that's why you need to meet him,
because he will lick your face. He will get on
his back, demand belly rubs, and you'll see that you
have nothing to worry about it.
Speaker 1 (25:56):
Yeah, and I don't like being licked on the face.
I mean, with certain exception, but.
Speaker 4 (26:01):
Oh my god, huh no, I don't I know.
Speaker 1 (26:04):
Do you like being looked on the face?
Speaker 4 (26:05):
No, I don't like what my dogs lick me now, right,
But they do it because they're affectionate.
Speaker 1 (26:09):
That's what it is.
Speaker 6 (26:10):
It's affection Look, you can you know, if Conan survives,
you can bring him over to the station. Oh yeah,
and he could co host too, since we're all right
listen and we he would love that.
Speaker 1 (26:27):
He's got the right personality. He's he's got the kfi Yeah, literally,
the pit pull personality. Shira, Well, we're rooting for Conan
and we'll talk to you next week.
Speaker 5 (26:38):
Thank you. Sound good?
Speaker 1 (26:39):
All right? Shira Scott Astrov with Animal Rescue Mission and
a spokesman spokesperson for Conan's owners.
Speaker 4 (26:45):
This is ridiculous. This happened almost a year ago and
we're still dealing with this. Let the dog live and
let's move on, people.
Speaker 1 (26:52):
This is uh. I want to know the name of
the bureaucrat. Yeah, it was insisting on the death penalty. Yeah,
they're always in the shadows. They're always hidden, these peas people. Well,
we'll see what happens next week. Okay, we've got more
coming up.
Speaker 3 (27:05):
You're listening to John Cobels on demand from KFI Am sixty.
Speaker 1 (27:10):
All right, now, we earlier we played old Chardonay camel
as she was deep into her wine, and she recorded
a five minute address to her followers, which just made
no sense. It was longer than five minutes. That was
always gave you. It was longer than five minutes. It
(27:30):
was about ten minutes, and it was it was the
same tenor just just about firaling around with all these
vague phrases. Well, she is very disappointed, and I just
you know. And then you have these women in Wisconsin,
twenty of them. They gathered in Clode Park, Kalo d
E Clody Park, right off the shores of Lake Michigan
in the Milwaukee area, and they gathered to scream. I
(27:55):
guess they were. They were screaming on the beach. They
were screaming at the water to let out all this
their anger and frustration over Kamala losing. We got a
clip of this.
Speaker 4 (28:36):
It's healing.
Speaker 1 (28:44):
Pray for their husbands if they have any. Wow, that's uhh,
that's really nuts. Yet they stood on the shore.
Speaker 4 (28:57):
Well it's better than you know, the screaming at their husbands.
Speaker 1 (29:02):
I have a feeling some of those women have an
inexhaustible supply of screaming in their in their systems. Some
of them were bent at the waist so they could
fully let out their frustration. How does that help? You
bent at the waist and you scream?
Speaker 4 (29:15):
I've never done that.
Speaker 1 (29:16):
Did that's the longest you've screamed?
Speaker 5 (29:19):
Uh?
Speaker 4 (29:20):
When I've done voiceover work and I had to Oh,
I've never just screamed.
Speaker 1 (29:23):
You don't don't you don't just wander around the house. No. Uh?
They then Oh, some of them took off their clothes
and jumped into Lake Michigan for a quick dip.
Speaker 4 (29:38):
And uh, what's the significance of being naked?
Speaker 1 (29:43):
I don't know. I don't know people like this.
Speaker 4 (29:49):
I don't either.
Speaker 1 (29:51):
One of the participants say I had a huddle before
the scream, and one of the women said that she
had spoke with her granddaughter. Okay, so this woman at
least had a husband and reproduced, and the granddaughter said, Grandma,
do you think she'll run again in four years? Because
I want to help her win. You think four years
(30:16):
from now, Kamala Harris is not going to make it
five minutes in the primary race. What's she going to
run on the wonders of Joe Biden. See, the thing is,
if she ran in a primary, other Democrats who realized
Biden was a failure would have pointed that out clearly,
and she would have. She would have been sunk during
the primaries to have somebody that associated with the most
(30:42):
unpopular administration probably since Jimmy Carter. And she was so
associated with us. And in the end it turned out
she agreed with him on all these matters, which is
why she never separated herself. One more rat of screaming please,
and and these are the women who didn't shave their heads.
(31:24):
Oh my god.
Speaker 4 (31:25):
All right, we come back, Carl to We need to
make that John's ring tone.
Speaker 1 (31:31):
Hey, you've been listening to the John Cobalt Show podcast.
You can always hear the show live on KFI AM
six forty from one to four pm every Monday through Friday,
and of course anytime on demand on the iHeartRadio app,
Can I am six forty. You're listening to the John
Cobelt Podcast on the iHeartRadio app and we're on every
day from one until four, and then after four o'clock
it's John Cobelt's show on demand on the iHeart app.
You can follow us at John Cobelt Radio at John
Cobelt Radio. We're trying to get to twenty thousand followers
by the end of the year, and we're getting close.
I mean, there's a lot of border news because Tom
(00:21):
Homan is going out on a full scale publicity tour,
is going to various spots at the border and making
it clear to everyone in this country and in all
the foreign countries and all the politicians that party's over.
We are going to be deporting lots and lots of people,
starting with the criminals and the gangsters and the terrorists,
working our way down to the huge numbers that applied
(00:44):
for asylum and lost their case. Nine out of ten
lose their case and they have been ordered gone by
a judge, and they ignored that order. The US didn't
enforce it. So Holman said, we're going after those people.
Let's talk with Todd Bensman. Now, Todd just wrote a
column about reviving Trump's Remain in Mexico policy and how
it really calmed down the border the first time the
(01:07):
policy was in effect back in twenty nineteen, and of
course anything successful that Trump had Biden undid it when
it came to the border policy. Let's get to Todd.
Ben's bean on Todd, how are you?
Speaker 2 (01:16):
I'm doing great, Thanks for having me.
Speaker 1 (01:18):
First thing, if you noticed any anything different going on
now that Trump is won, and that there's been a
lot of tough rhetoric from him and Tom Homan, anything
on the ground that people could see who've been analyzing
this situation for years.
Speaker 2 (01:32):
Yes, Well, the numbers of illegal crossings is are dropping.
Whereas you know, we were in the three thousand, four
thousand a day range for quite a while. We're now
at under two thousand, eight hundred, one thousand, seven hundred
a day, and those numbers are dropping for a couple
of reasons. One is that Homan is out there on
(01:53):
the stump warning everybody, Like you said in the intro,
you can come if you want, but we're going to
deport you. So want to spend the ten thousand dollars
to get here, You're going to lose it. That's basically
how they hear that. And two, Trump himself has threatened
a couple of times now, the Mexican president that if
she lets anybody come through, even during the transition period here,
(02:17):
that it's going to be progressive trade tariffs. Again, he's
already saying, Look, it's already going to be twenty five
percent as soon as the day I get into office.
If you want that to go away, you're going to
have to comply with all of our policies. If you
don't comply, it's going to go to fifty percent, then
seventy five percent, and one hundred percent, which would leave
(02:38):
Mexico's economy in a smoking ruin. So they're paying attention
down there and blocking them up, catching them with their
military and turning them around, breaking up the caravans, all
of that kind of thing. So it already is having
an effect. I call it the Trump effect. We had
Trump effect one point zero back in twenty seventeen, and
(02:59):
now we've got Trump Effect two point zero in twenty
twenty four.
Speaker 1 (03:03):
You just wrote an article we have it here in
the Cederalist dot com about reviving Trump's remain in Mexico policy. First,
one into effect in twenty nineteen. Can you explain, for
people who don't keep track of all the details, how
did it work and why was it so successful?
Speaker 2 (03:18):
I wrote the column because the American people are going
to be hearing a whole lot about this policy very soon.
It'll be implemented again on day one, probably at high
noon or just after high noon January twentieth. Remain in
Mexico is a very consequential policy and important policy coming
(03:40):
right out of the gate. In this way, what it
attacks is the central motivating incentive for illegal crossing, which
is that if I cross and I claim asylum, they'll
let me in to wait for the full backlog five
years till adjudication, during which time I'm laying down routes,
(04:02):
I'm having children, I'm disappearing, et cetera, and become very
difficult to ever deport. What Remain in Mexico does is
says we're going to push you back right away. You
can go through the asylum claim of an asylum claim,
but you're going to wait the whole thing in Mexico,
not inside the United States, so you can't just disappear.
(04:22):
That just removes the whole thing. I mean the whole
point of why they come is to claim bogus asylum
and get in for years at a time, nobody is
coming for the great Mexican dream, as I write in
the column. And so back in twenty nineteen, when this
policy was in place, I went down to Juarez and
(04:44):
interviewed a whole bunch of expellees. What are you going
to do? How did this affect your thinking? And that's
all in the column. But the bottom line is that
they were all going home. In fact, so many were
going home that the un organized bus rides all the
way down into Central America they were filling up three, five,
(05:04):
ten every day with the expellees who really all of
a sudden didn't care about asylum. They were, you know,
all of a sudden their home villages were perfectly fine
to return to, not death traps.
Speaker 1 (05:17):
Yeah, well that's the thing. Most of the people who
apply for asylum get turned down. Could you explain generally,
what are the requirements to get asylum approved. I mean,
you have to meet a specific definition of.
Speaker 2 (05:35):
You have to show a preponderance of evidence that your
home government persecuted you on the basis of race, religion,
sexual orientation, membership, and a social class or your political orientation,
party membership, or whatever it is, and that you were
being persecuted so you had to flee in order to survive.
(06:00):
And if you can convince a judge in the United
States of that, then you know, will grant you, you know,
a residency on a path to citizenship. The problem is
that the vast, vast majority of people that are using
that system are turned down eighty ninety because they're just lying.
(06:24):
There's no they can't prove it, and it's just generally
not true. Most American people, you know, think that these
are people who are fleeing certain death and destruction, but
the vast majority of them are lying about that. That
is not true. They just know that those are the
magic words that the dumb Americans will accept to let
(06:47):
you in remain in Mexico just you know, eviscerates the
whole the whole game, right, that's the power of it.
Speaker 1 (06:58):
That's why they, oh, their asylum claims your bogus. But
they also know that once you get into America it'll
be years before there's an asylum hearing, and even if
you lose, they don't come after you.
Speaker 2 (07:09):
There's no point in having a law like this where
you go all the way through our due processes and
then get a decline and a removal order, and then
we don't follow through. You know, with millions and millions
and millions of people, what's the point. The point is
that it's just used to get in and stay in,
(07:30):
all right.
Speaker 1 (07:31):
I'm the whole thing is one big racket, isn't it.
Speaker 2 (07:33):
It really is. Listen, if you had to cross you know, five, six, eight,
ten countries that are perfectly safe to find safe haven
only in the United States ten countries away, you're a liar.
You did not need asylum. You're you're an economic opportunist,
(07:54):
which is something different. Asylum does not cover people who
live in poverty or are victims of you know, regular
street clime or whatever it is. Doesn't cover that. It's
for government persecution.
Speaker 1 (08:07):
Yeah, and the Biden administration knows this and let it
all happen anyway.
Speaker 2 (08:11):
They know my design. But everybody understands. Everybody understands this game.
Everybody understands it, except the average American right does not
understand it.
Speaker 1 (08:23):
All right, Very good, Todd Bensman, thank you for coming.
Speaker 2 (08:25):
On, great to be here. Thank you for having me.
Speaker 1 (08:28):
He explains things very well. Uh yeah, just just to
amplify that, you do know that this is all a
big racket. Everybody in the Biden administration, in the Mexican government,
this is this is all the drug cartels. It's all
play acting these people. And he's got examples. If you
go to the Federalist dot com and the headline is
(08:49):
why reviving Trump's remain in Mexico policy will slit swiftly
reduced border chaos. Todd Benzman's his name. Go read this
and you'll see all these people are coming because they
want to get better. You can a deal. But they're
not in any danger at all. They're not being persecuted,
they're not under the threat of violence, no such thing.
It's just everybody knows you claim asylum and that you'll lose,
(09:12):
but it doesn't matter because the federal government doesn't come
and get you anyway, so you just stay. It's and
you know, we have to pay the tremendous cost of
giving benefits to these people one way or the other.
I mean, in California, it costs tens of billions of
dollars to give illegal aliens what they need to get
(09:36):
by even their better deal doesn't mean they can live
independently without our help. I mean, you know, just just
the cost of schooling and medical care for example, Right,
it's billions of dollars, and it takes away from American citizens,
takes away from poor people here, school children here, just crazy.
(09:57):
All right, more coming up.
Speaker 3 (09:58):
You're listening to co Belt on demand from KFI AM
six forty.
Speaker 1 (10:04):
All right, so almost sixty percent of the country. And
to me, this is the central issue. I mean, I mean,
there's like way too much there's way too much internet,
there's way too much television. Everybody's filling time with all
sorts of ridiculous, absurd theories. On the election, it is
(10:26):
always first, second, and third about whether people feel like
they're doing well, that they have a job, that they're
going to keep their job. The job is paying them
enough money, and they don't have bills that are making
life difficult. Right, They're getting ahead of the game, even
if they're just a little ahead of That's all the
elections usually are. Okay, sometimes you get unusual events in
(10:51):
the world, but for the most part, your basic generic
election is how is everyone feeling and who do they
trust on that issue? And when I saw this today.
It's a study that's been done by wallet Hub. They
do financial surveys. They found that almost sixty percent of
(11:12):
the country say they're struggling with their debt, and half
are worried about the impact of their debt on their children.
Almost half of the Americans say the debt is taking
a toll on their health. That's how worried they are.
They claim that debt and financial stress affects their well being.
(11:33):
And about forty percent think their household debt is going
to increase over the next year. So whatever they have now,
forty percent of the country thinks, oh, year from now,
it's going to be even worse. Now. The thing is,
the polling showed this all year, and I think the
polsters intentionally lied the networks and New York Times, they
(11:57):
intentionally lied with their story about it. Oh it's neck
and neck, it's even It's like, no, it's not. Do
you know. I think the uh, the percentage of people
who strongly approved of Joe Biden's administration was only seventeen percent.
That was strong approval seventeen percent. And there's a whole
bunch of statistics like this approval versus disapproval, and there was.
(12:21):
There was a line today in one of the stories,
it's like, no president has no party or president has
ever been re elected with numbers like that. It really
doesn't matter what Trump did. As long as he was
talking about the economy inflation, he was gonna win because
Kamala comes out and says, I wouldn't do anything different.
(12:44):
What believe me that one line, that one moment on
the view that sunker campaign for sure. Credit card is
the most prevalent type of debt. Fifty one percent of
respondents saying they have un manageable credit card bills. And
it used to be I thought, well, a lot of
(13:05):
that's your fault because people just are compulsive spenders. They
don't understand math, They don't understand that if you, I
don't know how a twenty or a twenty nine percent
interest rate on your credit card, it's going to get
out of hand real fast. But not with thirty percent
inflation that was entirely created by the government, the Federal Reserve,
Biden Kamala's spending period. End of story. And so you know,
(13:30):
people are paying people can't pay their food bills and
their rent bills because of all the inflation going on
and then a research company called Blueprint twenty twenty four
did a post election investigation. The number one reason that
voters gave for not supporting Kamala Harris inflation was too high.
(13:55):
The differential there was twenty four points twenty four percent
more twenty four percentage points. People said they voted for
Trump over Harris because of inflation, so that was at
plus twenty four. Immigration was at plus twenty three. And
(14:17):
the third reason Harris too focused on cultural issues rather
than helping the middle class. She was behind by seventeen
points on that. So she's behind by twenty four points
on inflation, twenty three on the border seventeen that she
was too focused on culture reals. That is the damage
that transgender ad did to Kamala Harris. That was absolutely
(14:37):
devastating because that is what people have felt, they have
known for all these years. Too much on woke nonsense,
woke garbage. Nobody wants to hear about transgender stuff, racial stuff,
all of that. They're fed up with the language police.
Nobody's going to win. And you could believe in this
(14:59):
stuff to the day you die. If you're trying to
run on that, you're going to lose and You're going
to lose badly. It's only gonna get worse. Shut up
about it already, Stop it. There's nothing new to say,
and nobody wants to hear you say it anymore. So
I'm looking here. What they did is they scored the
(15:21):
relative importance of these issues, and those were the top three. Inflation,
too high under Biden, too many immigrants crossing. Kamala focused
on cultural issues instead of the middle class. See coming
out and saying I was born in a middle class family.
You know, I was born in a middle class family.
You know. Did you hear I was born That's not
(15:43):
a policy. That is not a policy. Other important issues,
the debt rose too much under the Biden Harris administration. Yeah,
Kamala Harris is too similar to Joe Biden. Yes, Kamala
would let it. Too many immigrants. Yes, there you go
two issues, economy, inflation and immigration. That's it. All other
(16:10):
analysis is idiotic, stupid. I've seen black men blamed for it,
Hispanic men blamed for it, white women blamed for it,
all these demographic groups. No, no, no, most everyone's saying
was fed up with the inflation. Sixty percent have debt problems.
(16:31):
That's everybody, male, female, black, white, the whole, you know, gay, straight, everybody.
Stop it. Focus on what matters when you when you
cover elections, when you're in politics, Stop with the nonsense.
Stop persecuting people.
Speaker 3 (16:47):
You're listening to John Cobels on demand from KFI A
six forty.
Speaker 1 (16:52):
The city of Burbank has been trying to euthanize a
dog named Conan. Conan is a pitbull and Conan's owners
took him on a walk and they ran into a
neighbor and he bit the neighbor. I gave that person,
well it's a woman. Gave the woman a warning bite.
(17:13):
And Conan's owners say that the woman had been harassing
the dog for months and so Conan reacted to seeing her.
Speaker 4 (17:25):
And what's the warning bite? I mean, was it just
a little nip?
Speaker 1 (17:28):
Well, pit bulls they can go right for your juggler.
Speaker 4 (17:30):
I get it. But I mean we haven't heard. I mean,
is this woman in the hospital, is she dying?
Speaker 1 (17:35):
Well, we're going to talk now to Sheerra scott Astrov.
She's a spokesperson for Conan's owners and she's also with
Animal Rescue Mission, and we're going to talk about what
happened and then what went on at the hearing, because
there hasn't been a decision from what I understand, So
let's get share on welcome.
Speaker 5 (17:57):
Thank you. Can you hear me?
Speaker 1 (17:59):
Okay, yes I can. Uh so. A lot of people
have heard the headline can you can you tell the
story about about what happened when Conan's owners about what
are the names.
Speaker 5 (18:11):
Sylvia Franco and.
Speaker 1 (18:14):
Nelson grand right, Nelson and Sylvia. Yeah, their their names
are in the in the news stories yesterday. So Nilson
and Sylvia are walking Conan and they run.
Speaker 5 (18:24):
Actually that that part of the story is wrong in
the media. Sylvia was standing in front of her home,
so they the front of our home is an alleyway,
and she was standing in front of her home like
holding off something, you know, doing housework, and the neighbor
(18:47):
walked up to her in the albey I see.
Speaker 1 (18:50):
And then Conan was just walking around freely.
Speaker 5 (18:55):
Conan was in their home. They they have like is
iron gate that's normally closed. It wasn't closed at the time.
And ConA and heard, you know, kind of his mom
talking to this not talking the woman talking to his
mother and this is a woman that has been her
(19:16):
assing Conan for a long time. He basically went out
to make sure his mother was okay. He stood next
to her, and then the woman started doing her thing.
I have to tried lightly because I don't want to
talk too much about the woman, but she you know, yeah,
(19:37):
there were.
Speaker 1 (19:38):
There was media reports that she would scream at the dog.
Speaker 5 (19:42):
Yeah, she would scream and kick the fence. And this
went on multiple times a day. And she you know,
I supposed to some of the other neighbors, she does
it to them as well. She's he's kind of you know,
he can she's can be scary. And so Conan is
already afraid of this person, and his mother kind of
(20:05):
stands behind him, and the woman kept, you know, flailing
her arms, and he gave a warning bite and and yeah,
I mean a warning bite from an eighty pound pit
It's not going to look pretty.
Speaker 1 (20:19):
Yeah, where was the bite on her arm? And he
chomped on the arm and held the bite for a moment.
Speaker 5 (20:31):
Well, the behaviorist yesterday in court said it's considered a
warning bite because it was like a one bite. But
you know what we have to understand, as an eighty
pound dog, like even a warning bite, it's not gonna
it's not gonna look pretty, but yeah, so he gave
a warning bite. They said it lasted either of fifteen
to twenty seconds, and Sylvia called for her husband. He
(20:55):
ran out and he said Conan drop it or Conan
let go, and know, amily let go, and then Conan's
mom called an ambulance. And you know, the parents are
so nice, like they're just the sweetest people. So they
didn't know to do things that most people wouldn't know
(21:16):
to do, like, for instance, I wish they got a
restraining order against this woman a while ago. I wish
they had a camera in front of their house, you know,
things that like really nice, sweet people don't think of.
Speaker 1 (21:26):
You know, right to prove that there was ongoing harassment,
that explained why.
Speaker 5 (21:31):
Did Yeah, but you know, they had no idea that
this would happen. But you know, if it were me,
I would have a camera from my house immediately. I
would have a straining order, you know. But like, you know,
really I don't know, like most people who are civilized
and sweet and calm and just you know, live a
simple life, love their dogs, they don't think about those
(21:53):
things all.
Speaker 1 (21:54):
Right, So I assume the police were then called and
the dog was taken away and now city of Burbank
has declared cone and dangerous and they're going to have
to kill the dog.
Speaker 5 (22:02):
No, that's no listen to this. It's been eleven months
since it's happened. The dog has been with them the
entire time. Dangerous eleven months ago in January. How dangerous
do they really think he is? By the way, this
is the sweetest dog. I have now spent so much
time with him, and I run an animal rescue. I've
(22:24):
been an animal rescue for over thirty years. This is
Conan is so well behaved, and they are the parents
that I want for every dog, Like he sleeps in
their bed. He's the center of their world. He's their
only child.
Speaker 1 (22:39):
What what What is the City of Burbank's interest in
carrying on for all this time?
Speaker 5 (22:46):
So that's the biggest question everyone has. I am shocked
at this. Why they are putting all their time and
resources into murdering a dog that clearly poses the threat,
Like there have been multiple trainers that said this was
an isolated incident and he was provoked, And if a
(23:07):
dog is provoked in the city of Bourbonk, you cannot
punish the dog for that. I don't know why they're
going so hard. My only guess is that this animal
control officer who basically fabricated this whole report is now
just in it too deep. But I really don't understand,
especially now that all the city officials in Burbank know
(23:30):
that so much of this report was falsified, there were
documents missing, there were latent lives, why they even let
it get thus far. Oh and so after the incident,
the city of Burbank seemed like they made a ruling
that he gets killed immediately based on just complete.
Speaker 1 (23:50):
False When the city issues the death penalty, here is
there the name of someone or is there some death
penalty committee? It's it was.
Speaker 5 (24:00):
It wasn't even poor judge. It was like hearing in
Burbank on zoom. And I'm not sure who decides that.
Speaker 3 (24:06):
I know that the.
Speaker 5 (24:07):
Senior animal control officer that is kind of behind this
whole thing, she was on it. I don't know if
she makes that decision or if the city attorney does.
But once that happened, then the family got a lawyer,
and then what we've just been in is the appeal hearing.
Speaker 1 (24:26):
Well, they had to get Conan out of town. I
think they had to find like a safe house for ConA.
Speaker 5 (24:34):
Like the a eight years old. He's never spent more
than like three hours away from his dad. Like they're
so attached. And these poor people like they've just been
through such help. They don't have the money to be
doing any of this. They're just the nicest, nicest people.
Speaker 1 (24:51):
These are these petty bureaucratic tyrants. They have a tiny
bit of power and it makes them crazy. It's like
a narcotic all right. So the judge is going to rule.
Speaker 5 (25:01):
When closing arguments are via zoom on Monday, so I
assume we will have a decision next week.
Speaker 1 (25:12):
I see, Well, I think Conan should live. I know
how Debra is going to vote here. Of course we're
not on the committee, but can we Can you come
on next week and let us know what happened?
Speaker 5 (25:27):
Absolutely, I absolutely yeah.
Speaker 1 (25:29):
Maybe maybe we'll drive Conan to a safe house, although
we be charged, probably meet him. Well, I'm a little
skinnish about pit bulls. No, I want to make it clear,
I'm a little biased against pit bulls, but I understand
here Conan is being treated unfairly.
Speaker 5 (25:48):
Well, I think that's why you need to meet him,
because he will lick your face. He will get on
his back, demand belly rubs, and you'll see that you
have nothing to worry about it.
Speaker 1 (25:56):
Yeah, and I don't like being licked on the face.
I mean, with certain exception, but.
Speaker 4 (26:01):
Oh my god, huh no, I don't I know.
Speaker 1 (26:04):
Do you like being looked on the face?
Speaker 4 (26:05):
No, I don't like what my dogs lick me now, right,
But they do it because they're affectionate.
Speaker 1 (26:09):
That's what it is.
Speaker 6 (26:10):
It's affection Look, you can you know, if Conan survives,
you can bring him over to the station. Oh yeah,
and he could co host too, since we're all right
listen and we he would love that.
Speaker 1 (26:27):
He's got the right personality. He's he's got the kfi Yeah, literally,
the pit pull personality. Shira, Well, we're rooting for Conan
and we'll talk to you next week.
Speaker 5 (26:38):
Thank you. Sound good?
Speaker 1 (26:39):
All right? Shira Scott Astrov with Animal Rescue Mission and
a spokesman spokesperson for Conan's owners.
Speaker 4 (26:45):
This is ridiculous. This happened almost a year ago and
we're still dealing with this. Let the dog live and
let's move on, people.
Speaker 1 (26:52):
This is uh. I want to know the name of
the bureaucrat. Yeah, it was insisting on the death penalty. Yeah,
they're always in the shadows. They're always hidden, these peas people. Well,
we'll see what happens next week. Okay, we've got more
coming up.
Speaker 3 (27:05):
You're listening to John Cobels on demand from KFI Am sixty.
Speaker 1 (27:10):
All right, now, we earlier we played old Chardonay camel
as she was deep into her wine, and she recorded
a five minute address to her followers, which just made
no sense. It was longer than five minutes. That was
always gave you. It was longer than five minutes. It
(27:30):
was about ten minutes, and it was it was the
same tenor just just about firaling around with all these
vague phrases. Well, she is very disappointed, and I just
you know. And then you have these women in Wisconsin,
twenty of them. They gathered in Clode Park, Kalo d
E Clody Park, right off the shores of Lake Michigan
in the Milwaukee area, and they gathered to scream. I
(27:55):
guess they were. They were screaming on the beach. They
were screaming at the water to let out all this
their anger and frustration over Kamala losing. We got a
clip of this.
Speaker 4 (28:36):
It's healing.
Speaker 1 (28:44):
Pray for their husbands if they have any. Wow, that's uhh,
that's really nuts. Yet they stood on the shore.
Speaker 4 (28:57):
Well it's better than you know, the screaming at their husbands.
Speaker 1 (29:02):
I have a feeling some of those women have an
inexhaustible supply of screaming in their in their systems. Some
of them were bent at the waist so they could
fully let out their frustration. How does that help? You
bent at the waist and you scream?
Speaker 4 (29:15):
I've never done that.
Speaker 1 (29:16):
Did that's the longest you've screamed?
Speaker 5 (29:19):
Uh?
Speaker 4 (29:20):
When I've done voiceover work and I had to Oh,
I've never just screamed.
Speaker 1 (29:23):
You don't don't you don't just wander around the house. No. Uh?
They then Oh, some of them took off their clothes
and jumped into Lake Michigan for a quick dip.
Speaker 4 (29:38):
And uh, what's the significance of being naked?
Speaker 1 (29:43):
I don't know. I don't know people like this.
Speaker 4 (29:49):
I don't either.
Speaker 1 (29:51):
One of the participants say I had a huddle before
the scream, and one of the women said that she
had spoke with her granddaughter. Okay, so this woman at
least had a husband and reproduced, and the granddaughter said, Grandma,
do you think she'll run again in four years? Because
I want to help her win. You think four years
(30:16):
from now, Kamala Harris is not going to make it
five minutes in the primary race. What's she going to
run on the wonders of Joe Biden. See, the thing is,
if she ran in a primary, other Democrats who realized
Biden was a failure would have pointed that out clearly,
and she would have. She would have been sunk during
the primaries to have somebody that associated with the most
(30:42):
unpopular administration probably since Jimmy Carter. And she was so
associated with us. And in the end it turned out
she agreed with him on all these matters, which is
why she never separated herself. One more rat of screaming please,
and and these are the women who didn't shave their heads.
(31:24):
Oh my god.
Speaker 4 (31:25):
All right, we come back, Carl to We need to
make that John's ring tone.
