Speaker 1 (00:00):
President Trump floats the idea of capital punishment in DC.
The lawyer for an illegal gang member says he's going
to need psychological help to get over being deported, and
failed vice presidential candidate governor Tim waalt says it must
be easy to be a Republican. If there's one thing
or did they really just say that cut show this week,
it's not easy being blue.
Speaker 2 (00:19):
I'm Nancy Shack, I'm Ben Parker.
Speaker 3 (00:21):
This is newspite.
Speaker 4 (00:34):
Capital capital punishment. If somebody kills somebody into Capitol Washington,
d C. We're going to be seeking the death penalty.
Speaker 5 (00:45):
His family has suffered immeasurably, and I think it will
take many years, including therapy, for him to move past
what he suffered.
Speaker 6 (00:55):
Think of how easy it would be to be a
damn Republican. Oh what's your I wear today? This stupid
freaking red hat? What should I say today?
Speaker 2 (01:03):
I don't know.
Speaker 6 (01:04):
Just make sure it's cruel.
Speaker 1 (01:07):
Okay, Well that was Minnesota governor, failed Democratic VP candidate
or Democrat VP candidate Tim Waltz the way.
Speaker 2 (01:17):
I wonder why he failed. Maybe it has to do
with it.
Speaker 1 (01:20):
I think maybe he's demonstrating one of the reasons, right
then and there you know they lost because there's no
tolerance in their tone deaf. Maybe that has something to
do with it. You can hear the whole cut cut
number eight.
Speaker 3 (01:31):
Please.
Speaker 6 (01:31):
We are strong because we challenge each other. We are
strong because we're held accountable. We're strong because we believe
that there's a place for everyone here. Think of how
easy it would be to be a damn Republican. Oh
what should I wear today? This stupid freaking red hat.
What should I say today?
Speaker 4 (01:49):
I don't know.
Speaker 6 (01:49):
Just make sure it's cruell. Who do we listen to
that guy? Oh, the fella in the White House. Yeah,
listen to him and that.
Speaker 2 (01:56):
Will be fine, better than listening to you, I think.
I mean, I don't know.
Speaker 1 (02:00):
The Democrats who don't know who to listen to. You
remember when they asked Kamala Harris, you know who's the leader?
She couldn't name anybody, So I mean, wow, And that
was the Democrat the DNC summer meeting. He was making
an appearance.
Speaker 2 (02:12):
And people have look, listen, people have reason to be
I guess questioning any leader. But in this case President Trump,
because he's the current guy in the White House. There's reasons.
But you're not going to turn the boat around by
you know, poking more holes in it. Yeah, you know.
I mean, where's a where's your solution? You don't have
(02:33):
to be nice all the time, by the way, I
do like somebody who will launch your grenade or throw
a barb every once in a while. So it's fine,
but you can't just live your life just shouting out
insults and saying you should vote for us. And here's
some more insults as to why you should vote for us.
Speaker 3 (02:46):
No, we know where a red hat. Apparently that's something
to do with it.
Speaker 2 (02:49):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (02:50):
And here here's the thing, the reason why they lost
in the last one of the reasons why they lost
last novembery one hundred reasons, they were tone deaf to
what people wanted and what people and they are still
tone deaf. That has not changed. It's evident in what
the governor was doing there. But also he was not
the only tone deaf Democrat at the DNC summer meeting.
(03:13):
Here's a wonder for you. This is in Shahraman. She's
a VP for advocacy at the very Institute of Justice.
She's at the DNC meeting. She wanted to tell people
that crimes like carjacking just don't matter. Cut seven issues
voters care about.
Speaker 7 (03:29):
Where does Trump go? Migrant crime, carjackings, the really lurid,
awful stuff that is a crazy, crazy visual. Don't take
the bait because most Americans are more worried about how
are we going to address mental health issues, the visible
homelessness that we see on streets, and how do we
deal with mental health and other issues that drive the
(03:50):
sort of random incidents that scare all of us. That's
what you should be talking about. That's where you should
be focused. Don't take the bait, and talking about migrant
crime or car jacks are the things that actually don't
matter to that many Americans.
Speaker 2 (04:04):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (04:05):
This she is a textbook example of why they lost
last November and why they're going to lose again if
they don't get a grip. She has no idea what
Americans care about. And she's giving hillacious advice to Democrat
candidates if they if they follow her advice, they're going
(04:26):
write down the toilet and it's this is the problem
right there. You know, wow, you know, you.
Speaker 2 (04:34):
Know, you get you have your pro life candidates, right
you have people everybody takes a stand right. There's always
an agenda for a candidate, and they put it on
their signs. Sometimes put this on the sign. All dramacrats
have put us on their signs when they're running for reelection.
I am pro carjacking. See see how that works?
Speaker 1 (04:51):
Yeah yeah, or or I don't care about carjacking. You
just put that because that's what the advice was. But
and it wasn't the only It wasn't the only comment made.
The National Summer Menia opened with the chairman inviting Minnesota
DFL Treasurer Lindy Somic to do a land acknowledgment cut six.
Speaker 8 (05:13):
Now, please welcome a friend of mine from the Minnesota DFL,
their treasurer, and her name is Lindy Sohmik who is
from the Sagana Ojibwe nation, and she's going to deliver
our land acknowledgment. Todave Lindy Buju.
Speaker 9 (05:30):
Lindy Somic and Indigena cause amc doodum Uh Sagba and
shabe Quay. And now good morning DNC members, friends and relatives.
Let's talk about the land for a second. The DNC
acknowledges and honors.
Speaker 10 (05:47):
The Dakota Yata, the Dakota people who are the original
stewards of the lands and waters of Minneapolis. The Dakota
cared for the lands lakes in the wak Patanka, the
Great River, the Mississippi River for thousands of years before callization.
This land was not claimed or traded. It's a part
of a history of broken treaties and promises, and in
many ways we still live in a system built to
(06:09):
suppress Indigenous people's cultural and spiritual history.
Speaker 1 (06:13):
That's how they started their summer meeting. That was the
beginning of their summer meeting.
Speaker 2 (06:17):
Set in the stage.
Speaker 1 (06:18):
Oh my god, it's just victimology. And don't get me wrong,
I happen to feel for the Indigenous people. I used
to work for the Senates like Community Indian Affairs. I
understand what the issues are and I am on their side.
But this is a rough rock meeting to get together,
to get candidates together to be able to beat Republicans
(06:39):
in the upcoming elections. And people are just ready to
go out and take a valume at this point and
just it's just it's horrible, and that is what the
Democratic Democratic Party was selling at their summer meeting. But
here's the astonishing thing. Given what you just heard, none
of that even comes close to winning for the most
(07:00):
tone deaf comment of the week from a Democrat.
Speaker 3 (07:03):
Not even one of them is close to it.
Speaker 1 (07:07):
And something horrific happened in Minneapolis this past week, you know,
small There was a school church shooting, Nunciation Catholic School
and church, and two children were murdered while attending mass
celebrating the first week of school. It was a shooter,
an off balance, obviously mentally ill shooter who was a
(07:28):
trans woman who blocked the doors to the church with
two by fours and then shot with a rifle and
a pistol through the stained glass windows, killing two little children,
shooting fourteen others and injuring also some adults. Here is
the mayor of Minneapolis, Okay, Jacob Fry. He comes out
(07:50):
in responding to the shooting. There's still police tape around,
not all the aimblances have even left yet. This is
immediately after the shooting, and tells those people listening and
joining who are horrified and who want to do what
they can to help the people of this church, this community,
this city. And he tells him point blank, we don't
(08:13):
need your prayers. Cut four or five.
Speaker 11 (08:16):
These were Minneapolis families, these were American families, and the
amount of pain that they are suffering right now is extraordinary.
And don't just say this is about thoughts and prayers
right now. These kids were literally praying. It was the
first week of school, they were in a church. These
(08:38):
are kids that should be learning with their friends. They
should be playing on the playground.
Speaker 1 (08:45):
Has he lost his mind?
Speaker 2 (08:48):
Maybe, well, that would reply that he had a mind.
You can't lose what you didn't have.
Speaker 1 (08:53):
Catholic children were just mowed down at prayer, and he
belittles prayer.
Speaker 2 (08:58):
We don't need your we don't need compare. Here's the
thing he I mean. And obviously he is anger about
kids being killed, is right, and we're all angry. Everybody
should be angry, and that you know, there's a million
angles to this obviously. However, here, here's here's one thing
that I think. And and I don't know what you
believe in. I sometimes I don't even know what I
believe in. Uh, there's a lot of things, you know,
people have different beliefs and thought processes and everything else.
(09:20):
But here's here's the thing. I don't care who you are.
You don't get to tell me or anybody else to
pray or not to pray or whatever when So listen,
I'm gonna pray. If I want to pray, you pray.
If you want to pray, you think about them. If
you want to think about them, thoughts and prayers are fine. Fine. Well,
first of all, I don't even know what he wants
us to do if not at least think and pray, right,
(09:42):
I mean, they look, I can't I can't undo time.
I can't go back and stop this a hole from
doing what he did. I can't do any of that.
So if I'm at home or at church or wherever
I am and I'm going, oh God, please be with
these families, you get screw you. You don't get to
tell me where and when I can pray and who
for and everything else. Just be the mayor and lead
the city and stop being a jackass.
Speaker 1 (10:03):
I think it's gonna be hard for him to stop
being a jackass because after this hate crime against Catholics,
he says, you know, don't pray, and then before the
ambuls have even pulled away, he's proselytizing for gun control.
He wants action, So I mean he's using the shooting
of these people to service his political agenda.
Speaker 2 (10:26):
So that's quest is predictable.
Speaker 1 (10:28):
That's disgusting. Yeah, it is predictable and it's disgusting. But
if that were not enough, he then goes on cable
news and calls this a makes the victim and all
of this the trans community, not the children, not the Catholics,
not the religious people who were just mowed down at prayer,
(10:49):
but the trans community.
Speaker 12 (10:51):
Cut four O six, the individual possibly being trans, about
the individual possibly having negative things to say about Trump,
about some things that have been on the weapons. A
lot of this is just very early reporting. What do
you do as a leader of your city to prevent
details from being weaponized and using this to blame something
(11:13):
other than the guns.
Speaker 11 (11:16):
First off, anybody who is using this as an opportunity
to villainize trans people has completely lost touch with a
common humanity. Operate not off of hate for any community.
Operate off of love for our kids. Kids died today.
(11:37):
This should be about protecting our children. This should be
about loving our children. And far too often I feel
like people will think of the conclusion that they want
to get to, and then they'll like reverse manufacture the
facts that they want to hear to get to that endpoint.
Speaker 1 (11:53):
It should be about the children, but he's making it
about the trans community.
Speaker 2 (11:56):
But I have and here's and I heard that cut.
We played that cut in obviously listen, I agree with
him on look, we should not villainize a community because
of what one member of any community. But that's exactly
what it's doing. No, I understand, But that's so I
heard that, and I knew what was coming. I knew
what was coming. And I think it was the following
day that he went out, not just him, there were
(12:18):
others right and demonized what every gun owner, everyone who's
a Second Amendment supporter, all of these people. He did
exactly to that group of people what he didn't want
anybody to do to the trans community. And they shouldn't
be the shooter right right to the shooter, right.
Speaker 1 (12:36):
But they were saying, they were also saying, ignore the
fact that the shooter was trans. Here's the problem with
that this person. I don't care what their sexual ideology is.
They were imbalanced, they were crazy, and maybe that was
made worse by what they went through to become trans.
I don't know. I'm not a doctor. I have no idea,
(12:59):
but it's it's not unreasonable to think that there's a
medical issue there along with a mental illness issue that
was demonstrated by a sixteen seventeen year old person deciding
they wanted to trade to change sex, and by the way,
who also in their social media pages said they regretted
what they did. They didn't want to be they were
(13:20):
sorry they went trans, they were sorry about it. So
there was obviously mental issues there, not because he wanted
to be trans, but because he couldn't decide whether to
be trans or not, and that was not addressed and
that may have led help lead to what happened. So
I don't know because I'm not his doctor, I'm not
his family. I woul't know where his mother was and
all this and it and children are dead. But the
(13:41):
point is it's not unreasonable to ask the question. To
point a finger and be judgmental, yes, that's wrong, but
to ask the questions because if you can, if you
find an issue here that is that could have been treated,
then maybe you can treat it with somebody else and
maybe avoid this in the future. That's part of why
you ask the questions. Asking the questions is not wrong.
(14:03):
Being judgmental is wrong. There's a difference.
Speaker 2 (14:08):
By the way, you know. And I don't want to
get deep into this weed either because sometimes we do
that or I do that, you know, the whole two
way discussion and everything else. But look, let's and yes,
I'm a gun owner. I'm just gonna throw that out
there before anybody says, well, and I have a big
problem with people who talk about guns killing people. Never.
(14:30):
Never in the history of guns is a gun killed
a person. A person holding a gun is killed a person.
And I know that semantics to people will be like, well, yeah,
shut the hell up. Listen, Cars don't kill people. People
kill people, either intentionally or accidentally behind the wheel of
a car. Guns don't kill people. Inanimate objects are incapable
of committing murder. So the problem here isn't so And
(14:54):
I look, there are people who have guns who shouldn't
have them, But every laura abiding gun owner that I know,
including myself, has never killed a person, walked into school
and shot a bunch of people. The people who kill
people with guns and kill kids in school might have
a gun legally, but they're not responsible gun owners. The
fact is, if all of that being said, the problem
(15:15):
isn't the weapon you could use any weapon to kill someone.
I could kill you with a baseball bat, but nobody
should call for baseball bats to be outlawed. The problem
is there's a problem with some people, and as you
were alluding to, we got to find those problems and
get them the heck out of society, or make sure
they don't get guns, knives, tractor trailer trucks or nuclear
(15:36):
bombs ran for example. They can't have one because they're
not responsible enough to have one. There are people who
are not responsible enough to have guns or any other
weapon that could kill you. And that's the problem, not
the weapon. Okay, holy crap.
Speaker 1 (15:49):
I'm really did I fall off the chair or something.
Speaker 3 (15:51):
No, you're good, You're good. You did a good job.
Speaker 1 (15:53):
That was nice. That was very nice. But even with
these these horrific responses and out of touch responses that
that that were given. I mean, it just it made
my head hurt. And it's woke ideology at it's worse, and.
Speaker 2 (16:11):
It's every time I mean, it goes without saying look,
and that's one of the things that I hit myself
in the head within And the first thing I think
when somebody does something like this is, oh my God,
what the hell? And people are dead, and so it's terrible. Listen.
I'm not gonna say, oh, people are dead, all that's fantastic.
Now Listen, these are horrible things, and I think that
they're horrible things. And then immediately after that, I say,
(16:33):
where's the gun press conference? When are they going to
climb climb out of the wall, use their agenda.
Speaker 1 (16:39):
The smoke hadn't even cleared from the parking lot when
Chuck Schumer was doing that, So you were absolutely right.
Speaker 6 (16:45):
Now.
Speaker 1 (16:45):
I think that was probably the worst case of victimology
and tone deafness that I heard from the Dems this week.
But it wasn't the only one on full display again
on on cable news, in this time CNM. This was
involving the poster boy for deportation, Kilmar Abrego Garcia. As
(17:06):
we all know, Maryland man who beat his wife, who
is accused of human trafficking as an MS thirteen gang member,
and the administration tried to deport him to El Salvador
and he had to be brought back because he was
mistakenly put on the wrong plane, and so his lawyer
(17:26):
used as a loophole they brought him back and he
was in Tennessee where the human trafficking charges and they
let him out of Tennessee on bond, and the Federal
the iced detainers told him we're coming for you, so
you might as well turn yourself in.
Speaker 3 (17:42):
So he did.
Speaker 1 (17:42):
He turned himself into an ICE detention facility back in Maryland.
This time they said we're going to deport you. Only
now you're going to Uganda. And so I'm thinking he
might be regretting the fact that he didn't go back
to El Salvador. He might have wanted to stay there
and then go to Uganda, But in any event, that's
his So he's now under a threat of deportation to Uganda.
(18:04):
His attorney Rita Gandhi went on CNN and tried to
paint him as this incredible victim, saying he's going to
need years of therapy to recover from what he has
suffered cut twelve.
Speaker 2 (18:19):
I wonder what he has shared with you about that ordeal,
including his time that Salvador in prison socat, what has
all of this been like.
Speaker 5 (18:31):
I think his family has suffered immeasurably, and I think
it will take many years, including therapy, for him to
move past what he suffered. You know, he released his
statement about what he went through through our filings, and
I think they speak for itself. I mean he suffered unimaginable,
(18:55):
unimaginable hardships, physical harm.
Speaker 2 (19:00):
Well, well there, I hope they have good therapy in Uganda.
Speaker 1 (19:03):
I bet his wife can understand, because his wife was
suffered at his hands terribly, multiple tros. But now that
you know there's possible money in the offing and press
and so forth, she's coming out supporting him. Either that
or they threatened her. But you know, this is oh,
this is just it's amazing. This guy is a really
(19:24):
bad dude. And the Democrats found themselves in the position
of having to support him, to say that he was,
you know, a guy worth fighting for.
Speaker 2 (19:32):
They're in a position now, those who supported him, because
if more stuff comes out he gets proven guilty of
all this stuff, because you know, some of it's alleged.
I get it. Look, I know how the LOS system
more exp So as more stuff comes out that he's
alleged to have done, and if he obviously gets convicted
or something, the smoking gun comes out. Here's the problem.
So you've got all these people, mostly Democrats, but all
(19:55):
these people right, all different backgrounds and whatever. Who are
supporting this guy, Well, well they're going to be in
a position if they're not already where you either got
to cut him loose, which says you were wrong, or
you got to ride this horse all the way to
the end, which makes you look like an even bigger ass.
So there's a problem here. If you got on the
(20:18):
Abrago Garcia train, how do you get off the train? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (20:24):
And the thing is that I think a lot of
people just try to ignore what they the support they
gave early and are trying to keep their head down.
But it's hard when people ask President Trump in the
Oval office, why are people so attached to this MS
thirteen criminal who beat his wife?
Speaker 3 (20:40):
Cut number two?
Speaker 13 (20:41):
Please today MS thirteen gang baker and KIMA trafficker. Abragio
Garcia turned himself into ice in Baltimore. Give me a
comment on this? And why are the Democrats so emotionally
attached this man who beats his wife and is part
of a terrorist organization.
Speaker 4 (20:57):
Because they think he's going to be good for VOTs
And I think he's very bad for us. These people
are deranged. He's not good for VOTs.
Speaker 2 (21:06):
He beat the hell out.
Speaker 4 (21:07):
Of his wife. His wife is afraid to even talk
about him. She's been mauled by this animal. And you know,
through a system of liberal courts, you know, he's doing things.
But now we have that under control.
Speaker 1 (21:22):
Yeah, and you know, President Trump is winning a lot
of points for deportation of some very bad people who
were here illegally, and on his crackdown on crime in DC,
he's getting good reviews. He actually even got a good
review from Mayor Bowser day before yesterday. She said, you
know what I was wrong? This is this is going well.
We're happy about this, and it's he's winning applause, and
(21:47):
he's now turning his eye to other cities. And I
think he's, to be honest with you, I don't think
he really means that he's going to take this the
crackdown on crime.
Speaker 3 (21:58):
On the road. But I don't.
Speaker 1 (22:00):
Maybe maybe he would, he's he's.
Speaker 2 (22:03):
But he can take the crackdown on crime on the
road without activating the entire military and taking him into
Chicago or LA. He can look, first of all, he
can just send people there, right representatives or himself or
whatever and meet with mayors and say, listen, we got
to get more cops on the streets. We got to
do this, We got to do that. So he could
take this further without going the route that he did
in DC. I don't know what he plans to do
(22:26):
because he doesn't call me anymore, but yeah, he could
do this, but without quote unquote doing it by speaking
or diplomacy or whatever you call it. When you you
know the president.
Speaker 1 (22:39):
The watchually, I wanted to use that as a truth
ortrol this week. We always like to do a truth
control and this is the truth ortroll from this week.
President Trump is saying he's going to look at Chicago
and New York next cut number sixteen.
Speaker 4 (22:51):
Chicago's a mess. You have an incompetent mayor grossly incompetent.
And we'll straighten that one out probably next. That'll be
our next one after this, and it won't even be tough.
And the people in Chicago, mister Vice President, are screaming
for us to come there. They're wearing red hats, just
like this one, but they're wearing red hats. African American ladies,
(23:14):
beautiful ladies, are saying, please, President Trump, come to Chicago.
Speaker 2 (23:19):
Please.
Speaker 4 (23:20):
I did great with the black vote, as you know,
and they want something to happen. So I think Chicago
will be our next, and then we'll help.
Speaker 2 (23:28):
With New York.
Speaker 4 (23:30):
We're going to help with us. And I think, really,
I think a lot of and a lot of these
people that you see on television, they are, including the
people in this audience. They'll say bad things about me,
and then they'll say, thank God he's here, because half
of them got mugged and they don't want to get
mugged again.
Speaker 6 (23:46):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (23:46):
I think here's the thing. DC is different than any
other city in the entire country.
Speaker 3 (23:52):
It's a federal city.
Speaker 1 (23:53):
That means that the federal government can impose for a
limited periods of time, in this case days, they can
bring in the nationalgal without anybody's permission.
Speaker 3 (24:02):
They can just do it.
Speaker 1 (24:03):
That is not true for any other city in the country.
It's not true for New York, it's not true for Chicago,
it's not true for LA. So when President Trump says
we're going to take our roadshow and we're going to go,
he's doing one of two things. Either he is figured
out a loophole and is bringing the military in, or
he's poking the bear and those three cities because he's saying,
(24:25):
look what I did here, get your crap together, You
can do it there. Do it there because you don't
want me coming. So is he basically trying to shame
them into getting their act together? Is he trolling them?
Or does he really mean to go and take the military.
You say he doesn't really mean to go, he's poking them.
Speaker 2 (24:42):
Well, I think he'd love to go, But I think
even he knows that he can't just march the military
into without permission, as you said, and governors can activate
national Guard and so on and so forth. So I
think the plan, at least plan A would be send
Vance or himself for whoever, and go and meet with
(25:02):
these or talk on the phone with the governors, the
mayor of the city, whatever, and and get them to
come around. Maybe he can, maybe he can to say,
you know what, you're right, mister president, We're gonna put
the garden in our city for a week, a month whatever,
see if we can't fix this. So I don't think uh,
plan A is for President Trump to march the military
into any of these cities. Maybe it's planned B or
(25:25):
C or D or E. But he would, by the way,
he would look like an even bigger superhero and accomplish
the same thing if he got these governors who are
anti you know, Trump, rat red hat wearing people to say, yeah,
you know, you're right, Well let's put a few troops
in there just to kind of make things happen.
Speaker 3 (25:45):
But this is truth or troll?
Speaker 2 (25:46):
South Well, I think, well, I think, I think again, this.
Speaker 1 (25:50):
Is a monosyllabic response, truth or troll.
Speaker 2 (25:54):
As far as sending the troops in himself.
Speaker 1 (25:56):
As far as going to these he's saying he's going
to go in and clean up these cities. Is that
truth or troll?
Speaker 2 (26:00):
I think that's truth. There you go, because he's going
to clean up the city, does it? Is what I
was thinking? Okay, By the way, Tim Walls must have
blown up when he heard talking about all those red
hat wearing people.
Speaker 3 (26:13):
Yeah, can you imagine.
Speaker 1 (26:15):
Now there's another one too that could have been a
truth ortrol that the President said made a statement that
I think he's serious about, but I think the application
of it might be a troll and much like this one. Actually,
and that's cut five A.
Speaker 4 (26:30):
It'll be a crime free city. By the way, speaking
of that, anybody murders something in the capitol capital punishment
capital capital punishment. If somebody kills somebody in the Capitol Washington,
d C. We're going to be seeking the death penalty.
(26:53):
And that's a very strong preventative and everybody that's heard
it agrees with it. I don't know if we're ready
for it in this country, but well, you have it.
Speaker 7 (27:06):
It is.
Speaker 4 (27:07):
We have no choice. So in DC and Washington, states
are gonna have to make their own decision. But if
somebody kills somebody like you could have been killed, very
lucky you didn't get killed. It's the death penalty.
Speaker 1 (27:21):
So again, DC's federal, and unlike any other city in
the country, the US Attorney in d C, which is
Jeanine Perow at this point in time, has the ability
to either bring federal crimes. There is federal death penalties.
So even if you're in a non death penalty state
like Massachusetts, is federal crime. Like Joe Krzarnea, the Boston
(27:44):
Marathon bomber, is on death row even though he was
tried in Massachusetts because it was a federal crime when
he was tried with. But in DC, local crimes, non
federal crimes can be brought in the federal court. Because
it's different than any other city in the entire country.
So in d C, ginine Piro can bring a case
(28:05):
that would normally be covered by d c's non death
penalty rules and bring it as a federal case and
therefore death penalty. So they can do that in DC
unlike any place else. I think what he was saying
here is that, yes, they're going to be doing that
much more in DC because right now I think there's
there's three cases on the books that look like they're
(28:25):
death penalty cases. But I think that But what he's
saying too, he can't make others. This is the state's
rights issue. He can't go into. But I think he's saying,
look at the wrong rule in your books. Think about it.
I think it's just a way to get the death
penalty on the table for discussion in other states he can,
he can implement it in DC, but he wants you
to think about it. And that's why he did it.
Speaker 2 (28:46):
Well. And if there's what that was the truth or trol,
if that had been the truth ortrol this week? Uh
what he said truth? Yeah, I mean if he does
agree with or does want to kill murderers, why.
Speaker 1 (28:57):
Why wouldn't he Well, I mean, but I mean he's
supporting the death of course, but I think I think
the whole purpose of bringing it it was to make
other states think about it, even though he can't do
anything about it. If you live in California or New
York or any place else, he wants you to think
about it, and he wants it on the table for discussion.
And that's why he brought it up in DC, where
it already exists in a very interesting hybrid federal form.
Speaker 2 (29:20):
By the way, if you are a pro death penalty,
one thing you should pray for, and you can pray,
but I allow you to pray for you want. Jacob
Frey correct. So, but if you are pro death penalty,
you when someone kills somebody, which we hope they don't write,
but if they do, you pray that there's some federal
(29:42):
angle that could be taken to put that person down.
Like if Joe Harz and I have had walked down
the streets of Boston the day of the marathon bombing
and just stabbed somebody, he wouldn't be on death roll. No,
But he he committed federal crimes and a mass and
a mass murder, and so right, so as horrible as
what he did was and we all wish he didn't
do it. He did it under federal crimes. He's gonna
(30:06):
be sent to home.
Speaker 1 (30:08):
To Jesus, he's a Muslim.
Speaker 2 (30:12):
I think it's all pray, thoughts and prayers to anybody
you want, because I am a freedom loving type of person.
Speaker 3 (30:19):
There you go. That's what I say about Sheldon Times.
Speaker 1 (30:22):
That is your that's your reputation in the newsroom. So
if you have any feelings you want to share with
Ben and I regarding the death penalty or President Trump
going in for law and order in other states of
the Union besides d C, you can let us know
on x at news Bye three or on Facebook at
news Bite. We upload a new episode every single Monday,
(30:44):
so please check back next Monday and see what new
offerings we have. Meanwhile, have a very great week. I'm
Nancy Shack, I'm Freedom Parker. This is news Bite.
President Trump floats the idea of capital punishment in DC.
The lawyer for an illegal gang member says he's going
to need psychological help to get over being deported, and
failed vice presidential candidate governor Tim waalt says it must
be easy to be a Republican. If there's one thing
or did they really just say that cut show this week,
it's not easy being blue.
Speaker 2 (00:19):
I'm Nancy Shack, I'm Ben Parker.
Speaker 3 (00:21):
This is newspite.
Speaker 4 (00:34):
Capital capital punishment. If somebody kills somebody into Capitol Washington,
d C. We're going to be seeking the death penalty.
Speaker 5 (00:45):
His family has suffered immeasurably, and I think it will
take many years, including therapy, for him to move past
what he suffered.
Speaker 6 (00:55):
Think of how easy it would be to be a
damn Republican. Oh what's your I wear today? This stupid
freaking red hat? What should I say today?
Speaker 2 (01:03):
I don't know.
Speaker 6 (01:04):
Just make sure it's cruel.
Speaker 1 (01:07):
Okay, Well that was Minnesota governor, failed Democratic VP candidate
or Democrat VP candidate Tim Waltz the way.
Speaker 2 (01:17):
I wonder why he failed. Maybe it has to do
with it.
Speaker 1 (01:20):
I think maybe he's demonstrating one of the reasons, right
then and there you know they lost because there's no
tolerance in their tone deaf. Maybe that has something to
do with it. You can hear the whole cut cut
number eight.
Speaker 3 (01:31):
Please.
Speaker 6 (01:31):
We are strong because we challenge each other. We are
strong because we're held accountable. We're strong because we believe
that there's a place for everyone here. Think of how
easy it would be to be a damn Republican. Oh
what should I wear today? This stupid freaking red hat.
What should I say today?
Speaker 4 (01:49):
I don't know.
Speaker 6 (01:49):
Just make sure it's cruell. Who do we listen to
that guy? Oh, the fella in the White House. Yeah,
listen to him and that.
Speaker 2 (01:56):
Will be fine, better than listening to you, I think.
I mean, I don't know.
Speaker 1 (02:00):
The Democrats who don't know who to listen to. You
remember when they asked Kamala Harris, you know who's the leader?
She couldn't name anybody, So I mean, wow, And that
was the Democrat the DNC summer meeting. He was making
an appearance.
Speaker 2 (02:12):
And people have look, listen, people have reason to be
I guess questioning any leader. But in this case President Trump,
because he's the current guy in the White House. There's reasons.
But you're not going to turn the boat around by
you know, poking more holes in it. Yeah, you know.
I mean, where's a where's your solution? You don't have
(02:33):
to be nice all the time, by the way, I
do like somebody who will launch your grenade or throw
a barb every once in a while. So it's fine,
but you can't just live your life just shouting out
insults and saying you should vote for us. And here's
some more insults as to why you should vote for us.
Speaker 3 (02:46):
No, we know where a red hat. Apparently that's something
to do with it.
Speaker 2 (02:49):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (02:50):
And here here's the thing, the reason why they lost
in the last one of the reasons why they lost
last novembery one hundred reasons, they were tone deaf to
what people wanted and what people and they are still
tone deaf. That has not changed. It's evident in what
the governor was doing there. But also he was not
the only tone deaf Democrat at the DNC summer meeting.
(03:13):
Here's a wonder for you. This is in Shahraman. She's
a VP for advocacy at the very Institute of Justice.
She's at the DNC meeting. She wanted to tell people
that crimes like carjacking just don't matter. Cut seven issues
voters care about.
Speaker 7 (03:29):
Where does Trump go? Migrant crime, carjackings, the really lurid,
awful stuff that is a crazy, crazy visual. Don't take
the bait because most Americans are more worried about how
are we going to address mental health issues, the visible
homelessness that we see on streets, and how do we
deal with mental health and other issues that drive the
(03:50):
sort of random incidents that scare all of us. That's
what you should be talking about. That's where you should
be focused. Don't take the bait, and talking about migrant
crime or car jacks are the things that actually don't
matter to that many Americans.
Speaker 2 (04:04):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (04:05):
This she is a textbook example of why they lost
last November and why they're going to lose again if
they don't get a grip. She has no idea what
Americans care about. And she's giving hillacious advice to Democrat
candidates if they if they follow her advice, they're going
(04:26):
write down the toilet and it's this is the problem
right there. You know, wow, you know, you.
Speaker 2 (04:34):
Know, you get you have your pro life candidates, right
you have people everybody takes a stand right. There's always
an agenda for a candidate, and they put it on
their signs. Sometimes put this on the sign. All dramacrats
have put us on their signs when they're running for reelection.
I am pro carjacking. See see how that works?
Speaker 1 (04:51):
Yeah yeah, or or I don't care about carjacking. You
just put that because that's what the advice was. But
and it wasn't the only It wasn't the only comment made.
The National Summer Menia opened with the chairman inviting Minnesota
DFL Treasurer Lindy Somic to do a land acknowledgment cut six.
Speaker 8 (05:13):
Now, please welcome a friend of mine from the Minnesota DFL,
their treasurer, and her name is Lindy Sohmik who is
from the Sagana Ojibwe nation, and she's going to deliver
our land acknowledgment. Todave Lindy Buju.
Speaker 9 (05:30):
Lindy Somic and Indigena cause amc doodum Uh Sagba and
shabe Quay. And now good morning DNC members, friends and relatives.
Let's talk about the land for a second. The DNC
acknowledges and honors.
Speaker 10 (05:47):
The Dakota Yata, the Dakota people who are the original
stewards of the lands and waters of Minneapolis. The Dakota
cared for the lands lakes in the wak Patanka, the
Great River, the Mississippi River for thousands of years before callization.
This land was not claimed or traded. It's a part
of a history of broken treaties and promises, and in
many ways we still live in a system built to
(06:09):
suppress Indigenous people's cultural and spiritual history.
Speaker 1 (06:13):
That's how they started their summer meeting. That was the
beginning of their summer meeting.
Speaker 2 (06:17):
Set in the stage.
Speaker 1 (06:18):
Oh my god, it's just victimology. And don't get me wrong,
I happen to feel for the Indigenous people. I used
to work for the Senates like Community Indian Affairs. I
understand what the issues are and I am on their side.
But this is a rough rock meeting to get together,
to get candidates together to be able to beat Republicans
(06:39):
in the upcoming elections. And people are just ready to
go out and take a valume at this point and
just it's just it's horrible, and that is what the
Democratic Democratic Party was selling at their summer meeting. But
here's the astonishing thing. Given what you just heard, none
of that even comes close to winning for the most
(07:00):
tone deaf comment of the week from a Democrat.
Speaker 3 (07:03):
Not even one of them is close to it.
Speaker 1 (07:07):
And something horrific happened in Minneapolis this past week, you know,
small There was a school church shooting, Nunciation Catholic School
and church, and two children were murdered while attending mass
celebrating the first week of school. It was a shooter,
an off balance, obviously mentally ill shooter who was a
(07:28):
trans woman who blocked the doors to the church with
two by fours and then shot with a rifle and
a pistol through the stained glass windows, killing two little children,
shooting fourteen others and injuring also some adults. Here is
the mayor of Minneapolis, Okay, Jacob Fry. He comes out
(07:50):
in responding to the shooting. There's still police tape around,
not all the aimblances have even left yet. This is
immediately after the shooting, and tells those people listening and
joining who are horrified and who want to do what
they can to help the people of this church, this community,
this city. And he tells him point blank, we don't
(08:13):
need your prayers. Cut four or five.
Speaker 11 (08:16):
These were Minneapolis families, these were American families, and the
amount of pain that they are suffering right now is extraordinary.
And don't just say this is about thoughts and prayers
right now. These kids were literally praying. It was the
first week of school, they were in a church. These
(08:38):
are kids that should be learning with their friends. They
should be playing on the playground.
Speaker 1 (08:45):
Has he lost his mind?
Speaker 2 (08:48):
Maybe, well, that would reply that he had a mind.
You can't lose what you didn't have.
Speaker 1 (08:53):
Catholic children were just mowed down at prayer, and he
belittles prayer.
Speaker 2 (08:58):
We don't need your we don't need compare. Here's the
thing he I mean. And obviously he is anger about
kids being killed, is right, and we're all angry. Everybody
should be angry, and that you know, there's a million
angles to this obviously. However, here, here's here's one thing
that I think. And and I don't know what you
believe in. I sometimes I don't even know what I
believe in. Uh, there's a lot of things, you know,
people have different beliefs and thought processes and everything else.
(09:20):
But here's here's the thing. I don't care who you are.
You don't get to tell me or anybody else to
pray or not to pray or whatever when So listen,
I'm gonna pray. If I want to pray, you pray.
If you want to pray, you think about them. If
you want to think about them, thoughts and prayers are fine. Fine. Well,
first of all, I don't even know what he wants
us to do if not at least think and pray, right,
(09:42):
I mean, they look, I can't I can't undo time.
I can't go back and stop this a hole from
doing what he did. I can't do any of that.
So if I'm at home or at church or wherever
I am and I'm going, oh God, please be with
these families, you get screw you. You don't get to
tell me where and when I can pray and who
for and everything else. Just be the mayor and lead
the city and stop being a jackass.
Speaker 1 (10:03):
I think it's gonna be hard for him to stop
being a jackass because after this hate crime against Catholics,
he says, you know, don't pray, and then before the
ambuls have even pulled away, he's proselytizing for gun control.
He wants action, So I mean he's using the shooting
of these people to service his political agenda.
Speaker 2 (10:26):
So that's quest is predictable.
Speaker 1 (10:28):
That's disgusting. Yeah, it is predictable and it's disgusting. But
if that were not enough, he then goes on cable
news and calls this a makes the victim and all
of this the trans community, not the children, not the Catholics,
not the religious people who were just mowed down at prayer,
(10:49):
but the trans community.
Speaker 12 (10:51):
Cut four O six, the individual possibly being trans, about
the individual possibly having negative things to say about Trump,
about some things that have been on the weapons. A
lot of this is just very early reporting. What do
you do as a leader of your city to prevent
details from being weaponized and using this to blame something
(11:13):
other than the guns.
Speaker 11 (11:16):
First off, anybody who is using this as an opportunity
to villainize trans people has completely lost touch with a
common humanity. Operate not off of hate for any community.
Operate off of love for our kids. Kids died today.
(11:37):
This should be about protecting our children. This should be
about loving our children. And far too often I feel
like people will think of the conclusion that they want
to get to, and then they'll like reverse manufacture the
facts that they want to hear to get to that endpoint.
Speaker 1 (11:53):
It should be about the children, but he's making it
about the trans community.
Speaker 2 (11:56):
But I have and here's and I heard that cut.
We played that cut in obviously listen, I agree with
him on look, we should not villainize a community because
of what one member of any community. But that's exactly
what it's doing. No, I understand, But that's so I
heard that, and I knew what was coming. I knew
what was coming. And I think it was the following
day that he went out, not just him, there were
(12:18):
others right and demonized what every gun owner, everyone who's
a Second Amendment supporter, all of these people. He did
exactly to that group of people what he didn't want
anybody to do to the trans community. And they shouldn't
be the shooter right right to the shooter, right.
Speaker 1 (12:36):
But they were saying, they were also saying, ignore the
fact that the shooter was trans. Here's the problem with
that this person. I don't care what their sexual ideology is.
They were imbalanced, they were crazy, and maybe that was
made worse by what they went through to become trans.
I don't know. I'm not a doctor. I have no idea,
(12:59):
but it's it's not unreasonable to think that there's a
medical issue there along with a mental illness issue that
was demonstrated by a sixteen seventeen year old person deciding
they wanted to trade to change sex, and by the way,
who also in their social media pages said they regretted
what they did. They didn't want to be they were
(13:20):
sorry they went trans, they were sorry about it. So
there was obviously mental issues there, not because he wanted
to be trans, but because he couldn't decide whether to
be trans or not, and that was not addressed and
that may have led help lead to what happened. So
I don't know because I'm not his doctor, I'm not
his family. I woul't know where his mother was and
all this and it and children are dead. But the
(13:41):
point is it's not unreasonable to ask the question. To
point a finger and be judgmental, yes, that's wrong, but
to ask the questions because if you can, if you
find an issue here that is that could have been treated,
then maybe you can treat it with somebody else and
maybe avoid this in the future. That's part of why
you ask the questions. Asking the questions is not wrong.
(14:03):
Being judgmental is wrong. There's a difference.
Speaker 2 (14:08):
By the way, you know. And I don't want to
get deep into this weed either because sometimes we do
that or I do that, you know, the whole two
way discussion and everything else. But look, let's and yes,
I'm a gun owner. I'm just gonna throw that out
there before anybody says, well, and I have a big
problem with people who talk about guns killing people. Never.
(14:30):
Never in the history of guns is a gun killed
a person. A person holding a gun is killed a person.
And I know that semantics to people will be like, well, yeah,
shut the hell up. Listen, Cars don't kill people. People
kill people, either intentionally or accidentally behind the wheel of
a car. Guns don't kill people. Inanimate objects are incapable
of committing murder. So the problem here isn't so And
(14:54):
I look, there are people who have guns who shouldn't
have them, But every laura abiding gun owner that I know,
including myself, has never killed a person, walked into school
and shot a bunch of people. The people who kill
people with guns and kill kids in school might have
a gun legally, but they're not responsible gun owners. The
fact is, if all of that being said, the problem
(15:15):
isn't the weapon you could use any weapon to kill someone.
I could kill you with a baseball bat, but nobody
should call for baseball bats to be outlawed. The problem
is there's a problem with some people, and as you
were alluding to, we got to find those problems and
get them the heck out of society, or make sure
they don't get guns, knives, tractor trailer trucks or nuclear
(15:36):
bombs ran for example. They can't have one because they're
not responsible enough to have one. There are people who
are not responsible enough to have guns or any other
weapon that could kill you. And that's the problem, not
the weapon. Okay, holy crap.
Speaker 1 (15:49):
I'm really did I fall off the chair or something.
Speaker 3 (15:51):
No, you're good, You're good. You did a good job.
Speaker 1 (15:53):
That was nice. That was very nice. But even with
these these horrific responses and out of touch responses that
that that were given. I mean, it just it made
my head hurt. And it's woke ideology at it's worse, and.
Speaker 2 (16:11):
It's every time I mean, it goes without saying look,
and that's one of the things that I hit myself
in the head within And the first thing I think
when somebody does something like this is, oh my God,
what the hell? And people are dead, and so it's terrible. Listen.
I'm not gonna say, oh, people are dead, all that's fantastic.
Now Listen, these are horrible things, and I think that
they're horrible things. And then immediately after that, I say,
(16:33):
where's the gun press conference? When are they going to
climb climb out of the wall, use their agenda.
Speaker 1 (16:39):
The smoke hadn't even cleared from the parking lot when
Chuck Schumer was doing that, So you were absolutely right.
Speaker 6 (16:45):
Now.
Speaker 1 (16:45):
I think that was probably the worst case of victimology
and tone deafness that I heard from the Dems this week.
But it wasn't the only one on full display again
on on cable news, in this time CNM. This was
involving the poster boy for deportation, Kilmar Abrego Garcia. As
(17:06):
we all know, Maryland man who beat his wife, who
is accused of human trafficking as an MS thirteen gang member,
and the administration tried to deport him to El Salvador
and he had to be brought back because he was
mistakenly put on the wrong plane, and so his lawyer
(17:26):
used as a loophole they brought him back and he
was in Tennessee where the human trafficking charges and they
let him out of Tennessee on bond, and the Federal
the iced detainers told him we're coming for you, so
you might as well turn yourself in.
Speaker 3 (17:42):
So he did.
Speaker 1 (17:42):
He turned himself into an ICE detention facility back in Maryland.
This time they said we're going to deport you. Only
now you're going to Uganda. And so I'm thinking he
might be regretting the fact that he didn't go back
to El Salvador. He might have wanted to stay there
and then go to Uganda, But in any event, that's
his So he's now under a threat of deportation to Uganda.
(18:04):
His attorney Rita Gandhi went on CNN and tried to
paint him as this incredible victim, saying he's going to
need years of therapy to recover from what he has
suffered cut twelve.
Speaker 2 (18:19):
I wonder what he has shared with you about that ordeal,
including his time that Salvador in prison socat, what has
all of this been like.
Speaker 5 (18:31):
I think his family has suffered immeasurably, and I think
it will take many years, including therapy, for him to
move past what he suffered. You know, he released his
statement about what he went through through our filings, and
I think they speak for itself. I mean he suffered unimaginable,
(18:55):
unimaginable hardships, physical harm.
Speaker 2 (19:00):
Well, well there, I hope they have good therapy in Uganda.
Speaker 1 (19:03):
I bet his wife can understand, because his wife was
suffered at his hands terribly, multiple tros. But now that
you know there's possible money in the offing and press
and so forth, she's coming out supporting him. Either that
or they threatened her. But you know, this is oh,
this is just it's amazing. This guy is a really
(19:24):
bad dude. And the Democrats found themselves in the position
of having to support him, to say that he was,
you know, a guy worth fighting for.
Speaker 2 (19:32):
They're in a position now, those who supported him, because
if more stuff comes out he gets proven guilty of
all this stuff, because you know, some of it's alleged.
I get it. Look, I know how the LOS system
more exp So as more stuff comes out that he's
alleged to have done, and if he obviously gets convicted
or something, the smoking gun comes out. Here's the problem.
So you've got all these people, mostly Democrats, but all
(19:55):
these people right, all different backgrounds and whatever. Who are
supporting this guy, Well, well they're going to be in
a position if they're not already where you either got
to cut him loose, which says you were wrong, or
you got to ride this horse all the way to
the end, which makes you look like an even bigger ass.
So there's a problem here. If you got on the
(20:18):
Abrago Garcia train, how do you get off the train? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (20:24):
And the thing is that I think a lot of
people just try to ignore what they the support they
gave early and are trying to keep their head down.
But it's hard when people ask President Trump in the
Oval office, why are people so attached to this MS
thirteen criminal who beat his wife?
Speaker 3 (20:40):
Cut number two?
Speaker 13 (20:41):
Please today MS thirteen gang baker and KIMA trafficker. Abragio
Garcia turned himself into ice in Baltimore. Give me a
comment on this? And why are the Democrats so emotionally
attached this man who beats his wife and is part
of a terrorist organization.
Speaker 4 (20:57):
Because they think he's going to be good for VOTs
And I think he's very bad for us. These people
are deranged. He's not good for VOTs.
Speaker 2 (21:06):
He beat the hell out.
Speaker 4 (21:07):
Of his wife. His wife is afraid to even talk
about him. She's been mauled by this animal. And you know,
through a system of liberal courts, you know, he's doing things.
But now we have that under control.
Speaker 1 (21:22):
Yeah, and you know, President Trump is winning a lot
of points for deportation of some very bad people who
were here illegally, and on his crackdown on crime in DC,
he's getting good reviews. He actually even got a good
review from Mayor Bowser day before yesterday. She said, you
know what I was wrong? This is this is going well.
We're happy about this, and it's he's winning applause, and
(21:47):
he's now turning his eye to other cities. And I
think he's, to be honest with you, I don't think
he really means that he's going to take this the
crackdown on crime.
Speaker 3 (21:58):
On the road. But I don't.
Speaker 1 (22:00):
Maybe maybe he would, he's he's.
Speaker 2 (22:03):
But he can take the crackdown on crime on the
road without activating the entire military and taking him into
Chicago or LA. He can look, first of all, he
can just send people there, right representatives or himself or
whatever and meet with mayors and say, listen, we got
to get more cops on the streets. We got to
do this, We got to do that. So he could
take this further without going the route that he did
in DC. I don't know what he plans to do
(22:26):
because he doesn't call me anymore, but yeah, he could
do this, but without quote unquote doing it by speaking
or diplomacy or whatever you call it. When you you
know the president.
Speaker 1 (22:39):
The watchually, I wanted to use that as a truth
ortrol this week. We always like to do a truth
control and this is the truth ortroll from this week.
President Trump is saying he's going to look at Chicago
and New York next cut number sixteen.
Speaker 4 (22:51):
Chicago's a mess. You have an incompetent mayor grossly incompetent.
And we'll straighten that one out probably next. That'll be
our next one after this, and it won't even be tough.
And the people in Chicago, mister Vice President, are screaming
for us to come there. They're wearing red hats, just
like this one, but they're wearing red hats. African American ladies,
(23:14):
beautiful ladies, are saying, please, President Trump, come to Chicago.
Speaker 2 (23:19):
Please.
Speaker 4 (23:20):
I did great with the black vote, as you know,
and they want something to happen. So I think Chicago
will be our next, and then we'll help.
Speaker 2 (23:28):
With New York.
Speaker 4 (23:30):
We're going to help with us. And I think, really,
I think a lot of and a lot of these
people that you see on television, they are, including the
people in this audience. They'll say bad things about me,
and then they'll say, thank God he's here, because half
of them got mugged and they don't want to get
mugged again.
Speaker 6 (23:46):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (23:46):
I think here's the thing. DC is different than any
other city in the entire country.
Speaker 3 (23:52):
It's a federal city.
Speaker 1 (23:53):
That means that the federal government can impose for a
limited periods of time, in this case days, they can
bring in the nationalgal without anybody's permission.
Speaker 3 (24:02):
They can just do it.
Speaker 1 (24:03):
That is not true for any other city in the country.
It's not true for New York, it's not true for Chicago,
it's not true for LA. So when President Trump says
we're going to take our roadshow and we're going to go,
he's doing one of two things. Either he is figured
out a loophole and is bringing the military in, or
he's poking the bear and those three cities because he's saying,
(24:25):
look what I did here, get your crap together, You
can do it there. Do it there because you don't
want me coming. So is he basically trying to shame
them into getting their act together? Is he trolling them?
Or does he really mean to go and take the military.
You say he doesn't really mean to go, he's poking them.
Speaker 2 (24:42):
Well, I think he'd love to go, But I think
even he knows that he can't just march the military
into without permission, as you said, and governors can activate
national Guard and so on and so forth. So I
think the plan, at least plan A would be send
Vance or himself for whoever, and go and meet with
(25:02):
these or talk on the phone with the governors, the
mayor of the city, whatever, and and get them to
come around. Maybe he can, maybe he can to say,
you know what, you're right, mister president, We're gonna put
the garden in our city for a week, a month whatever,
see if we can't fix this. So I don't think uh,
plan A is for President Trump to march the military
into any of these cities. Maybe it's planned B or
(25:25):
C or D or E. But he would, by the way,
he would look like an even bigger superhero and accomplish
the same thing if he got these governors who are
anti you know, Trump, rat red hat wearing people to say, yeah,
you know, you're right, Well let's put a few troops
in there just to kind of make things happen.
Speaker 3 (25:45):
But this is truth or troll?
Speaker 2 (25:46):
South Well, I think, well, I think, I think again, this.
Speaker 1 (25:50):
Is a monosyllabic response, truth or troll.
Speaker 2 (25:54):
As far as sending the troops in himself.
Speaker 1 (25:56):
As far as going to these he's saying he's going
to go in and clean up these cities. Is that
truth or troll?
Speaker 2 (26:00):
I think that's truth. There you go, because he's going
to clean up the city, does it? Is what I
was thinking? Okay, By the way, Tim Walls must have
blown up when he heard talking about all those red
hat wearing people.
Speaker 3 (26:13):
Yeah, can you imagine.
Speaker 1 (26:15):
Now there's another one too that could have been a
truth ortrol that the President said made a statement that
I think he's serious about, but I think the application
of it might be a troll and much like this one. Actually,
and that's cut five A.
Speaker 4 (26:30):
It'll be a crime free city. By the way, speaking
of that, anybody murders something in the capitol capital punishment
capital capital punishment. If somebody kills somebody in the Capitol Washington,
d C. We're going to be seeking the death penalty.
(26:53):
And that's a very strong preventative and everybody that's heard
it agrees with it. I don't know if we're ready
for it in this country, but well, you have it.
Speaker 7 (27:06):
It is.
Speaker 4 (27:07):
We have no choice. So in DC and Washington, states
are gonna have to make their own decision. But if
somebody kills somebody like you could have been killed, very
lucky you didn't get killed. It's the death penalty.
Speaker 1 (27:21):
So again, DC's federal, and unlike any other city in
the country, the US Attorney in d C, which is
Jeanine Perow at this point in time, has the ability
to either bring federal crimes. There is federal death penalties.
So even if you're in a non death penalty state
like Massachusetts, is federal crime. Like Joe Krzarnea, the Boston
(27:44):
Marathon bomber, is on death row even though he was
tried in Massachusetts because it was a federal crime when
he was tried with. But in DC, local crimes, non
federal crimes can be brought in the federal court. Because
it's different than any other city in the entire country.
So in d C, ginine Piro can bring a case
(28:05):
that would normally be covered by d c's non death
penalty rules and bring it as a federal case and
therefore death penalty. So they can do that in DC
unlike any place else. I think what he was saying
here is that, yes, they're going to be doing that
much more in DC because right now I think there's
there's three cases on the books that look like they're
(28:25):
death penalty cases. But I think that But what he's
saying too, he can't make others. This is the state's
rights issue. He can't go into. But I think he's saying,
look at the wrong rule in your books. Think about it.
I think it's just a way to get the death
penalty on the table for discussion in other states he can,
he can implement it in DC, but he wants you
to think about it. And that's why he did it.
Speaker 2 (28:46):
Well. And if there's what that was the truth or trol,
if that had been the truth ortrol this week? Uh
what he said truth? Yeah, I mean if he does
agree with or does want to kill murderers, why.
Speaker 1 (28:57):
Why wouldn't he Well, I mean, but I mean he's
supporting the death of course, but I think I think
the whole purpose of bringing it it was to make
other states think about it, even though he can't do
anything about it. If you live in California or New
York or any place else, he wants you to think
about it, and he wants it on the table for discussion.
And that's why he brought it up in DC, where
it already exists in a very interesting hybrid federal form.
Speaker 2 (29:20):
By the way, if you are a pro death penalty,
one thing you should pray for, and you can pray,
but I allow you to pray for you want. Jacob
Frey correct. So, but if you are pro death penalty,
you when someone kills somebody, which we hope they don't write,
but if they do, you pray that there's some federal
(29:42):
angle that could be taken to put that person down.
Like if Joe Harz and I have had walked down
the streets of Boston the day of the marathon bombing
and just stabbed somebody, he wouldn't be on death roll. No,
But he he committed federal crimes and a mass and
a mass murder, and so right, so as horrible as
what he did was and we all wish he didn't
do it. He did it under federal crimes. He's gonna
(30:06):
be sent to home.
Speaker 1 (30:08):
To Jesus, he's a Muslim.
Speaker 2 (30:12):
I think it's all pray, thoughts and prayers to anybody
you want, because I am a freedom loving type of person.
Speaker 3 (30:19):
There you go. That's what I say about Sheldon Times.
Speaker 1 (30:22):
That is your that's your reputation in the newsroom. So
if you have any feelings you want to share with
Ben and I regarding the death penalty or President Trump
going in for law and order in other states of
the Union besides d C, you can let us know
