The John Kobylt Show Hour 1 (06/16) - The No Kings Day Protest took place over the weekend and shockingly the United States still doesn't have a king but that isn't going to stop Pres. Trump from doing what he wants. A man was shot in the groin at one of the protests last week. How many illegal immigrants have self-deported already? Protests during the Trump Era are pretty commonplace. More on Sen. Alex Padilla storming DHS Sec. Kristi Noem's press conference on Friday.

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Can't. I am six forty.

Speaker 2 (00:02):
You're listening to the John Cobelt Podcast on the iHeartRadio app.
We are on every day from one until four o'clock
and then after four o'clock John Cobelt Show on demand
on the iHeart app, and that's where you listen to
what you missed. There is so much a tremendous amount
of news. Something about Saturdays the last few weeks, although

(00:24):
that story changed so many times, the shootings in Minnesota.
We'll get to it later on. What I want to
talk about now is today is ten years since Trump
came down the escalator, which is hard in a way.

Speaker 1 (00:36):
It seems like it's been one hundred years.

Speaker 2 (00:38):
It really has, but he has been ruling over everybody
for ten years now. Even when he was out of office,
there wasn't a day that went by where there wasn't
some major Trump news story and some major Trump argument
that people were having by the millions all over the country.
He's like just completely redefined our culture and completely redefined

(00:59):
our aley experience because there's there's always something.

Speaker 1 (01:03):
It just it just never goes away. And I was.

Speaker 2 (01:08):
Thinking about this watching some of the protests on Saturday,
which which got crazy towards the end. Woait, did you
see the video of the horse getting chest bumped by
that old lunatic?

Speaker 3 (01:19):
I didn't see that.

Speaker 1 (01:19):
You didn't.

Speaker 3 (01:20):
I did not see that.

Speaker 2 (01:21):
Oh we got somebody said it to her, because you'll
be you'll be very offended.

Speaker 3 (01:27):
Oh I don't think I want to see it. It was.

Speaker 2 (01:29):
It was an old, gray haired, long gray hair, hippie type, right,
and he's really angry at the cop sitting on horseback,
and he's angry at the horse too, and he actually
chest bumps the horse and the cop pulls out his
baton and whacks the guy really hard.

Speaker 1 (01:49):
I mean he got a spanking from.

Speaker 2 (01:51):
From the from the horse like he was sitting on
the horse, and he pulled out his batana. Look, and
then another cop pushed the guy in the chest to
knock him down. And he must have been a guy
I don't know, in his seventies maybe, but completely unhinged,
screaming at the cop and screaming at the horse standing

(02:13):
by himself. Here was a one man blockade, and I
was so much wanted the horse to kick him right
in the nuts.

Speaker 1 (02:19):
Oh yeah, just launch them.

Speaker 2 (02:21):
And I'm thinking, my god, you know it is a
hot afternoon in Los Angeles. Saturday was a really hot day,
must have been around ninety degrees, right, And I hear.

Speaker 1 (02:30):
Here's this old guy.

Speaker 2 (02:31):
I don't know who he is, where he's from, if
he's part of a paid protest, or he's just some
lunatic who got loose from his trailer. It's what are
you doing? Screaming bloody murder at aar at a horse.
And I was looking at all these people and they
were all in the middle of an emotional breakdown.

Speaker 1 (02:48):
Nobody would normally would do this.

Speaker 2 (02:51):
And then I hear the anchors and even some public officials.

Speaker 1 (02:55):
But people are exercising their First Amendment rights. You know,
this is just anothermostly peaceful protest. It's like they have
to say a prayer, right, they have to invoke that.
It's a peaceful process. Let's be honest. These people are lunatics.
I look at him.

Speaker 2 (03:11):
They all look they all look like they're all look
dirty and smelly. To be honest with you, I'm watching
you see it now, all right?

Speaker 1 (03:22):
Okay?

Speaker 2 (03:22):
I want to value this guy's opinion, right, there's his
right to protest. Just bumping a horse?

Speaker 1 (03:29):
What a nut?

Speaker 3 (03:30):
Leave the animals out of it. At all.

Speaker 1 (03:32):
What's the thing.

Speaker 2 (03:33):
It's like, the last thing I heard from one of
the anchors is a mostly peaceful protests. Then the first
video I see is this guy going after the horse.

Speaker 3 (03:41):
Yeah, that's not peaceful.

Speaker 1 (03:43):
It's an outdoor mental institution.

Speaker 2 (03:45):
It was live coverage of hours of mentally ill people
screaming and howling into the wind.

Speaker 1 (03:51):
And I'm thinking, you've you're, you're, You've had no effect.

Speaker 2 (03:55):
It's ten years later now and he's still a president,
and you're going to go home after exhausting yourself or
bailing yourself out because they rested over I think five
hundred and sixty people this week. You're going to go
home and he's still going to be president on Monday morning.
And that's exactly what happened. He's devised new plants to

(04:19):
flood Los Angeles with more ICE agents and make more
arrests and deport more people. Here's two articles. You just
have to read the headlines, and they both came out
today June sixteenth. First is from NBC four. Trump directs
ICE to expand deportations in democratic run cities such as

(04:41):
Los Angeles, Chicago, and New York. Because Trump wrote this
on his truth social ice officials have to do all
in their power to achieve the very important goal of
delivering the single largest and like all these words are
capitalized mass deportation program in history. And he said they
must expand efforts to detain and deport of legal aliens

(05:02):
in America's largest cities such as Los Angeles, Chicago, and
New York were millions upon millions of illegal aliens reside.
So after all the bloody screaming you did in the
ninety degree heat after assaulting the horse first thing Monday morning,
he goes, you know, I'm sending more ice agents in there.

Speaker 1 (05:19):
How do you like that? Here's Fox LA.

Speaker 2 (05:23):
Trump pledges to use every resource possible on ice raids
in LA, Chicago, and New York City. So you changed nothing, Now,
you could have changed something. Oh maybe two years ago,
when you and me and everybody saw that Biden was
a corpse, you had somehow you had a living corpse

(05:47):
sitting in the Oval office, and everybody knew it, and
you knew that he might not make uh, he might
not stay alive for the for the election season. He's
certainly not going to be alive through his second term.
He's going to be a very feeble campaigner. He literally
was wandering around the grounds of the White House, not

(06:07):
knowing where he was. And there was no protests, There
were no chants, there were no cute rhymes or slogans,
no signs, no nothing. That was the moment to take
action where you should have demanded the Democratic Party come
up with a primary and a half a dozen new candidates.

(06:31):
And then when he didn't quit until the last minute,
and they threw up Kamala Harris, well, everybody knows that
she's a bubblehead, she doesn't have a brain in her skull. Well,
that was the time probably to protest and say, hey, hey,
somebody else, hey let's have a primary, let's have a
choice of candidates.

Speaker 1 (06:51):
But everybody was silent.

Speaker 2 (06:53):
No public official except I think for one congressman, no
public official, none of these groups, none of these you onions.
Nobody took any action when it mattered. If people had
taken action two years ago, maybe Trump's not elected. If
people had taken action last spring or summer, maybe Trump's
not re elected. You know what, It's just amazing that

(07:15):
everybody sat on their hands and acknowledged that Biden was
senile and Kamelo was an empty balloon, and you just
accepted it. You know, Biden was on the ballot, you know,
he would have gotten seventy million votes. Kama's on the ballot.
She gets seventy plus million votes. So that was your moment. Now,

(07:37):
after Trump gets elected and he's certainly going to be
in for the next three and a half years, and
he can do what he wants, there's nothing you could
do to get rid of him. Maybe if the Democrats
get hold of the House, they can gin up another impeachment,
but that's not going to go anywhere because the Senate'll
kill it. So you're stuck. He's gonna do what he wants.

(07:59):
He's never running for reelection again. He's not afraid of anybody.
He's not afraid of the media. They tried to kill
him thirty different ways, fill they failed. He's not afraid
of the Democratic Party. They're in the most feeble shape
I can remember any part he's been in my life.

Speaker 1 (08:16):
So all you're reduced to is.

Speaker 2 (08:17):
Standing in the street on a hot day, screaming, screaming
at what horses? You're assaulting a horse because he's what
enforcing the law. You know, Biden had enforced the law
reasonably for four years. This shouldn't have been an issue.
Obama enforced it reasonably. Bush enforced it, Clinton did. All

(08:43):
you have to do is the same thing that Clinton
and Obama did. And instead, because Biden was senile, he
didn't know what the rest of his cabinet was doing,
and the rest of his staff your fault. Your fault
for not protesting two years ago. Now you're protesting after
you lost. There's nothing you can do about it, So
keep screaming, Keep screaming at horses.

Speaker 1 (09:05):
Good lord, I'm looking at.

Speaker 2 (09:08):
The TV Saturday and thinking, these are the stupidest, most
psychologically unhinged people I've ever met in my life. And
this is why I couldn't be a TV anchor, because
a TV anchor is supposedly well.

Speaker 1 (09:19):
These people are exercising their First Amendment rights. It's really
wonderful to see the comma. I heard one guy go,
the camaraderie out there, You stop it.

Speaker 2 (09:30):
It's the camaraderie of an outdoor mental institution. And everybody's
off their medication, and everybody was asleep two years ago
when they could have made a difference. All right, Uh,
this is something I've wondered and there's a story on it.
How many people may have self deported in the last
few months because they realize their number is coming. How

(09:53):
many have left on their own? Well, we got an
analyst in the Center for Immigration Studies who's taking a
whack and trying to figure it out. I'll talk about
that coming up next. Debra Mark, that horse was mistreated.

Speaker 3 (10:05):
I didn't like that. I'm all for I am all
for peaceful protesting. I am I know, but don't bother
the animals.

Speaker 1 (10:14):
Assaulting a horse is not cool.

Speaker 4 (10:16):
No, you're listening to John Cobelt on demand from KFI
AM six.

Speaker 2 (10:22):
Forty Voiceline is Friday eight seven seven Moist Steady six
eight seven seven Moist Steady six. Maybe he watched the
guy Rammy's chest into the horse. That's more entertaining than
the baseball game was. You can call in talk about
eight seven seven Moist Steady six or use the talkback

(10:43):
feature on the iHeart radio app. I'm going to get
into the estimates on how many people may have self
deported since Trump took over in January. But I don't
want to forget this. There was a guy, a lunatic
Get Get Cut three Radio Eric who who was out
there protesting, and he got mixed up some I don't know.

(11:07):
I guess one of the officers thought he was a
threat and and this guy got shot in the groin
and his testicle exploded.

Speaker 1 (11:17):
Here's the story for.

Speaker 3 (11:23):
I'm busy doing the news and then I hear that
that's funny.

Speaker 1 (11:29):
It's just him talking, by the way.

Speaker 5 (11:31):
I know.

Speaker 1 (11:31):
Well, that's the thing.

Speaker 2 (11:32):
I wish we had audio of his testicle actually exploding.

Speaker 3 (11:36):
But you can imagine how that would sound.

Speaker 2 (11:38):
What was that scream? Like, all right, h so his
name is Martin Santoyo. This is kt LA Channel five.

Speaker 5 (11:45):
And then they just pushed me, and I'm just just
instinct just I til the cop like don't don't push me.
I'm already moving back. And then the cop right next
to him had a gun and just aimed and shot.
He was like what like two three feet away. After
I got hit, I couldn't really walk. I was just
like too much in shock. And then they're still pushing me.

(12:08):
I know some other protesters were trying to help me,
like walk, but they're still pushing them too, and everyone's
shouting like yo, he just got hit, like let let
him breathe let him breathe, like and like I needed
to sit down for a bit, but they just they
just kept pushing. Right now, I'm at home. The injury
was sustained to my my growing. I have a bruise

(12:33):
left testicle and my right testicle was actually shattered. They
said that they somewhat fixed it so it should have
some function, but it's still very badly damaged. They could
not give me an exact time of how much I
got to shit. They just told me to hit them
up in five eight days and then we'll see how

(12:55):
I'm doing and when I can get back to work.
It hadn't told anybody to move, like to leave the streets,
because one thing that I think they're supposed to say
is unlawful gathering or something like that. At none of
that was mentioned. I want to take it easy, but
the fourteenth is a big movement, so I might be
there on wheelchair.

Speaker 3 (13:16):
He sounds pretty chill, Yeah, for sustaining that.

Speaker 1 (13:21):
Type of jury, a shattered exploded testicle.

Speaker 3 (13:24):
I mean, wouldn't you be kind of yelling and a
little more sounding a little more agitated.

Speaker 2 (13:30):
Yeah, I'd be howling, screaming. But it's his fault. He's
thirty three years old. What's he doing on a bike
going to a going to a stupid protest? You know,
you know what people can accomplish by the age of
thirty three. What is he accomplished?

Speaker 3 (13:44):
Yeah, but there were a lot of older people at
these protests, right, which means.

Speaker 1 (13:48):
They've got nothing to do.

Speaker 3 (13:49):
There were a lot of professionals at the protest.

Speaker 2 (13:53):
Yeah, professional protesters. Well, I mean, but that's to me
is a Saturday. Think. Think of a thousand things you
can do on a hot summer day in southern California.

Speaker 3 (14:04):
I'm telling you, I know and saw on social media
so many people that I know that you know at
those protests.

Speaker 1 (14:13):
Yes, are you going to ask them what it accomplished?

Speaker 2 (14:17):
No?

Speaker 3 (14:19):
I mean it made them feel better.

Speaker 1 (14:21):
Yeah, that's all it is.

Speaker 2 (14:22):
It makes them feel like, well, I've I've had a
chance to say my piece, I exercised my constitutional rights.

Speaker 1 (14:29):
All don't know. Woke up this morning. Trump is still King.
No King's protest. Trump is King. Trump is sending more.

Speaker 2 (14:36):
Ice agents to Los Angeles, four of them, spending more
money on this, so it looks like the King wins,
and all you did is get a blown up testicle.
It's got to be something better to do on a Saturday.
The sacrifice of your testing now.

Speaker 3 (14:52):
But these people feel that if they are, if they're
speaking out against something that they believe in, right. I
can't tell you how many any stories that I've seen
online where people are equating what's going on now with
what happened in Nazi Germany. So people feel it's their
duty to speak out and to protest.

Speaker 2 (15:15):
That comparison has gone on for ten years and I've
yet to see anybody marched into the ovens, you know.
I've yet to see anybody put on box cars. This
is amazing how many are leaving on their own illegal
aliens I'm talking about. They think there's about fifteen and
a half million. This is according for the Center for
Immigration Studies Andrew Arthur. We have had many people from

(15:40):
CIS on our show, so they're conservatively estimating fifteen and
a half million, which is a fifty percent increase in
four years.

Speaker 1 (15:49):
That's Biden's gift.

Speaker 2 (15:52):
And they wondered because historically, whenever there's a deportation movement,
and there have been other movements in the past, usually
a lot of people get the message and pack up
and leave on their own and people are also getting
an incentive. Christy Gnome, as you know, runs Department of

(16:13):
Homeland Security and she took Biden's CBP one app. Customs
in Border Patrol had an app CBP one, and when
people were in Mexico or any country, they could fill
out a form on the app on their smartphone and
get temporary clearance to come in. I mean, they're illegal,

(16:36):
but they gave them a temporary legality, and that's why
the illegal alien numbers were even worse than reported. Well,
they've rebranded CBP one as CBP Home and you can
use that app if you're here illegally to notify the
US government of your intention to deport and the US

(16:59):
government we'll give you one thousand dollars, which is a
good deal for US taxpayers because the cost of a
real deportation is seventeen thousand dollars a person, so paying
them a thousand it's a huge discount. Now, how many
have left, Well, one financial expert cited by The Wall

(17:20):
Street Journal calculated that seven hundred and seventy three thousand
illegal aliens left in the first four months of this year.

Speaker 1 (17:30):
The Washington Post says it may be a million.

Speaker 2 (17:36):
A million foreign born workers have exited the workforce since March.
And you know what's happened. That's driven up hourly wages
because now employees are finding it harder to fill open
slots and so the people applying and getting hired. The

(17:57):
wages rose by four tenths of a percent over the
month now to thirty six dollars and twenty four cents,
and earnings are beating inflation. So this this is a
gift to American citizens and legal workers. The harder it
is to fill jobs of the legal aliens, the more

(18:18):
they're gonna build, the more they're gonna pay legal citizens.
Dwight Eisenhower had a deportation round up way back in
nineteen fifty four, and ten aliens left voluntarily for each
one that was arrested and deported. George Bush had a
deportation program, well it was more like a registration program

(18:39):
after nine to eleven. That also drove self deportations. So
this does work. And you know the two estimates here,
it's anywhere between seven hundred and fifty thousand and a
million people had voluntarily left the country. And now we
don't have to support them, We don't have to pay
for them, because here in California, you tell this to

(18:59):
some of your friends, protesting cost thirty five billion dollars
in state tax money to finance all the illegal aliens here.
Thirty five billion dollars. But there wasn't a single protester
out there who even knew that. Not even the guy
who whacked the horse or the guy who lost his testicle,

(19:23):
neither one of.

Speaker 1 (19:23):
Them knew that.

Speaker 4 (19:25):
You're listening to John Cobels on demand from KFI AM
six forty.

Speaker 2 (19:31):
Caf I AM six forty live everywhere on the iHeartRadio app.
But we're on every day from one until four o'clock.
After four o'clock John Cobelt Show on Demand on the
iHeart App. We've been talking about the silliness, the absurdity
of all the stupid no Kings protests over the weekend.
People have been protesting Donald Trump for ten years now,
and then you wake up in the morning and he's

(19:52):
still president, and he's still doing what he wants, and
he still has the power to do all this stuff,
and there's nothing you can do to stop it because
you missed your chance. It's along the way when Joe
Biden was dying in office, and Kamala Harris was sitting
there staring ato space because she can't think of anything
to say, because she doesn't have any thoughts in her head.

(20:13):
So you had two shots there and you blew it.
And now you're standing in the street screaming. And then
you get home and it makes you feel good and
you go on social media and say, well, I'm very
proud of myself because I spoke truth to power today.

Speaker 1 (20:25):
I shouted right in that horse's face.

Speaker 2 (20:29):
Kimberly Strassel from The Wall Street Journal actually chronicled the
list of protests over the last ten years, and you'll
remember some of these. Maybe some of them got by
you at the time. Many of them were considered monumental,
like just a game changing moment in American history, something
that was going to alter the course of American politics,

(20:56):
because Kimberly wrote, We've been doing this for nearly a decade.
Here's a brief walk down protest lane. In the opening
months of Trump's first presidency, the resistance staged the Women's March.

Speaker 1 (21:09):
Remember that was there like a million women in Washington,
d C.

Speaker 2 (21:13):
Yes, I almost got stampeded during that march because you did,
Ken and I were and my wife.

Speaker 1 (21:18):
We were in Washington, d C. How did you survive
covering the inauguration?

Speaker 2 (21:23):
And we went to the train station because we were
going to take a train to go see my brother
in Philadelphia. And there were hordes women stomping it in the.

Speaker 1 (21:31):
Train stage nightmare. They were piling up.

Speaker 2 (21:34):
Well, they were all wearing those pink pussy cat hats
and they were stomping out of the trains, down the steps,
up the steps, they were everywhere. It's like, let's get
out of here, because they were all angry, and they
all marched and they all shouted. I don't think any
of them assaulted a horse, though.

Speaker 3 (21:52):
No, I don't think so. They were very well behaved.

Speaker 2 (21:54):
They're women, right, So there were no testicles sacrifices. Well
maybe one, but the most of them didn't have testicles.
And uh and and nothing changed. Remember how important that
was at the time.

Speaker 3 (22:07):
You remember some of the Me too movement that was huge.
Look at all the look at all the guys that
got in so much trouble. Yes, yes, so that was
one thing that did change. Right, guys are now a
little more careful, little guys.

Speaker 1 (22:20):
I bet you, I bet you. There's still charging an
admission price that would get an acting job.

Speaker 3 (22:27):
That would be I wonder how much of that is
still going on.

Speaker 1 (22:31):
I don't think human nature changes.

Speaker 3 (22:32):
Yeah, I mean you would think, but a lot of
careers were ruined in that time.

Speaker 1 (22:38):
Well, you know, it depends how you handle it.

Speaker 2 (22:40):
M h.

Speaker 1 (22:41):
I think Weinstein was way way too aggressive.

Speaker 2 (22:44):
Yes, And I think there's a lot of guys the
price they're a little bit smoother than that, all right.
The second protest airport protests against the travel ban. He
just at least another travel ban a few days ago.
Demonstrations against oh, pipeline projects around the country. I think
that that big pipeline coming out of Canada that's been
restarted as well. Oh, how can you forget a day

(23:08):
without Latinos, a day without immigrants, not my President's day,
Resist Trump Tuesday, transgender writes protests, a day without a woman,
a tax march, a march for science, May Day protests.

Speaker 1 (23:31):
This is just a.

Speaker 2 (23:32):
Partial list of all the protests, all that screaming, all
that public mental patient meltdowns. Nothing's changed, all worthless. And
what she writes is something I pointed out before. Peer
Research Center in March found that eighty three percent of

(23:53):
Americans feel that all or some illegal aliens should be deported.

Speaker 5 (23:59):
Three.

Speaker 2 (24:00):
Boy, you talk about being on the wrong side of
an issue. So you see, that's seventy You know that
represents seventeen percent of the public. And in you know,
raw numerical terms, you could fill up a lot of
city blocks with opponents. But the eighty three percent sat
home this weekend and they were sitting in their backyard

(24:22):
and having a barbecue, are going to a baseball game,
jumping in the pool. See, the eighty three percent stayed
at home and watched you make a fool of yourself
beating up a horse. That was one person, but he
spoke for everybody there. Eighty three percent. Well, all the

(24:44):
people I know, Yeah, all the people you know, all
the people on your social media list.

Speaker 1 (24:49):
Right.

Speaker 2 (24:51):
There's a famous story goes back to nineteen seventy two
when Richard Nixon beat to George McGovern forty nine state
to one. George McGovern was the Senator from South Dakota.
This is Nixon's second term. He won one state out
of fifty And there was a famous movie reviewer who
I think wrote for the New Yorker magazine. Name's Pauline

(25:15):
Kale really good reviewing movies, not so good writing about politics,
and the day after Nixon won forty nine out of
fifty states, she goes, I'm shocked. I just don't understand it.
Everyone I know voted form a govern world's most clueless woman,

(25:35):
and that's what you get in this country.

Speaker 3 (25:37):
Well, look, a lot of people were pretty surprised that
Kamala Harris didn't win.

Speaker 2 (25:42):
Yeah, because right because they don't get out of their neighborhood.
People like Kamala Harris and Newsome play as far east
as Oakland and Los Felis, and you go east to
Los Felis or Oakland, you could literally like twenty eight
hundred miles until you run into another Kamala Harris county.

(26:05):
You just have no idea what's going on out there
because you're just stitched inside your bubble.

Speaker 4 (26:12):
You're listening to John Cobels on demand from KFI AM sixty.

Speaker 2 (26:17):
You can follow us in John Cobelt Radio on social
media at John Cobelt Radio Coming up after two o'clock.
Brian Anton from News Nation. The other big story over
the weekend was that whack job Vance Bolter murdering the
former Speaker of the Minnesota Assembly and her husband and

(26:40):
seriously wounding a state senator and his wife. And this
was in the middle of the night, and a real sick,
oh weirdo whack job. He was impersonating a police officer
with a fake police car, and he had the scariest
rubber mask pulled over his head to make himself look

(27:01):
bald and creepy.

Speaker 1 (27:02):
It is horror movie stuff. And he's doing this at
three thirty in the morning.

Speaker 2 (27:06):
You've probably heard the story Brian Innton's going to report
on charges against him and how he was caught. Also
after two thirty, that evil weasel Gavin Newsom will not
fund Prop thirty six. You know, since Prop thirty six passed,
making theft a crime again, making drug use a crime again,

(27:29):
and making fentinyl use since the selling and distributing of
fentonyla crime for the first time. Well, they need hundreds
of millions of dollars for the drug treatment programs, for
the mental health programs, for the probation departments, for the
court system, and on and on, and Newsom wants to
spend almost nothing. So State Senator Tony Strickland, the Republican

(27:52):
from Huntington Beach, on to talk about it, because he
still wants to spend a billion dollars on high speed rail,
but we won't even spend four hundred million to fund
Prop thirty six. In the meantime, one more piece from
the immigration from Immigration riot Week. Probably the funniest moment,

(28:15):
as you know, was US Senator Alex Padilla barging in
on Christy nom the Department of Homeland Security secretary. She
was having a press conference in LA and he barges
in and starts shouting, and nobody knows, nobody knew who
he was, so no security pushed him out. He pushed back,

(28:39):
and then they dragged him out and put him face
down on the ground in the hallway, slapped handcuffs on him.
CNN has an analyst, a former FBI agent named Josh Campbell,
and listen to this rational explanation as to why the
Homeland Security agents did the right thing.

Speaker 6 (28:58):
It's easy to think about this as one incident, but
actually from a law enforcement perspective, we're really looking at
three separate incidents that happened within a short period of time. First,
you have the DHS secretary who is addressing the press.
This was not a Q and a period, and she's interrupted.
She's interrupt by someone who is speaking very loudly, and
so her security detail confronts what we obviously now know

(29:21):
to be the senator and at that point he is
now going to be escorted out. You can't interrupt something
like that that's already in progress without having those consequences.
But the second incident, in my view, happens the moment
as officers are trying to lead him out, he then
turns and walks back towards kind of into those agents.

Speaker 1 (29:39):
At that point, from a.

Speaker 6 (29:39):
Security detail perspective, we're taking this person out against their will.
We've asked the person, and again this is all happening
very quickly, but the moment he then turns into them,
they realize this is not someone who is going to comply.
But it's the third incident. So outside in the hallway,
outside from where the press conference was happening, you actually
see the senator eventually.

Speaker 1 (30:00):
Handcuffed on the ground.

Speaker 6 (30:02):
Now there will be big questions raised about those kinds
of tactics where there are other options that are available
to the federal agents as well as the FBI police
officer there who is responsible for security in that FBI building.
What they do is they actually order him to his
knees and then quickly shove him down to the ground
where he is then handcuffed. So again, you're in a

(30:22):
federal building. People are screened for weapons. Him having a
gun or some type of device like that would not
be a concern for those officers. So there will be
a big question about the tactics that were used by
the officers as they put handcuffs on him. But final
point on note, I know we are in a politically
charged climate, but from a law enforceforcement perspective, this was
neither the fault nor the responsibility of DHS Secretary Nome.

(30:46):
She's in the middle of a press conference, there's someone
who interrupts and then makes it clear by his movements
that he is not going to comply.

Speaker 1 (30:53):
He's taken out. Again.

Speaker 6 (30:54):
I don't think any of that was her responsibility. I
am learning from a law enforcement source that no charges
are playing against the SA.

Speaker 2 (31:02):
That is CNN analyst Josh Campbell, former FBI agent, and
that's from the Arena hosted by Casey Hunt on CNN.
And then look what happens on Saturday. You had two
Democratic legislators up in Minnesota shot one of them shot dead.

(31:22):
The lunatic who shot them showed up at three thirty
in the morning at their house. So I think that
shooting Saturday morning effectively ended any complaints about how Alex
Padia was treated, because this is the climate we're in now.
There are lunatics, violent lunatics with guns, and they're showing

(31:43):
up in places you never would have imagined. Who would
have thought quiet suburbia in Minnesota, you'd have a guy
with a bald man's rubber mask on his head and
a fake police car. So, and we're going to talk
to Brian Inton from News Nation, a cable news outlet
up in a few minutes about it. You know, Padilla
was lucky he wasn't kicked down the hallway, so he

(32:05):
got pushed to the ground and handcuffed. Big deal. Don't
do that next time. You should have known better. You're
a grown man and you're in office. Jesus cousin. I'm
sure Padia deals with all kinds of security threats, probably
dealing with more of them since he pulled this stunt.
I don't understand people on the inside not knowing that
you don't behave that way. But everybody seems to be

(32:29):
deranged these days. All right, when we come back, like
I said Brian Inton a News Nation about the Minneapolis shootings,
we are also going to have Tony Strickland on the
Huntingdon Beach State Senator Gavin Newsom. And this is a
direct fu middle finger. If you voted for Prop thirty six,
Gavin Newsom is trying to dismantle Prop thirty six by

(32:53):
not funding it. This is what he thinks of your
overwhelming two to one vote in favor of making theft
and drug use illegal again.

Speaker 3 (33:04):
Well, then we shouldn't we should not be paying for
the gas tax.

Speaker 1 (33:07):
Then we definitely should not be paying for the gas tax.
I can't.

Speaker 2 (33:11):
I can't believe we got to pay five dollars for
a gas tax and we can't get funding to put
thieves in state prison. And he doesn't even fund drug
treatment for the drug addicts.

Speaker 3 (33:24):
I And then you know, let's just not let's just
forget about Measure eight too.

Speaker 1 (33:30):
Yeah, that's right, Yeah, you're doing it.

Speaker 2 (33:32):
Ready for an anti tax protest, an anti tax protest
i'd go to, would you?

Speaker 3 (33:38):
Yeah, you would actually go and protest, and then we
can make fun of you for protesting instead of, you know,
hanging out in your pool and doing all that.

Speaker 1 (33:47):
Deborah Mark, you're feisty today.

Speaker 3 (33:51):
Oh I have a lot to say, but I'm a newsperson.

Speaker 2 (33:53):
Apparently you spend a little too much time reading about
your friends on social media. Deborah Mark, Mcamfi twenty four
