Speaker 1 (00:00):
Michael as a descendant of the native peoples of this continent.
I would like to officially fake and praise Rosie O'Donnell
for finally doing what every white liberal claims they want
and have all Europeans returned to their native lands, at
least the liberal woods.
Speaker 2 (00:22):
Dragon I both commented that we actually admire her for
doing what she said she was going to do. Now
she's the only one. And in the nine minutes, you know,
just because I'm lazy and just want to irritate people,
I'm so passive aggressive. It's oh, I need counseling for it.
(00:44):
I attempted to just you know, I think I could
easily just kill nine minutes by just starting that clip
and just letting it run.
Speaker 3 (00:50):
I do love this talk this text message, though. Dragon,
I'm gonna let you roll with it as long as
click run commercial. You are an awesome producer.
Speaker 2 (01:01):
Well, he was back there and I'm playing it, and
I'm looking at the clock, and I realized we got
a break coming up, and I'm thinking do I I'm
modestly thinking to myself, do I just bring this to
an end? Or did just let it roll and see
how long? And then he just keeps looking down. I
finally realized, like, I'm gonna have to because he's not
paying the attention.
Speaker 3 (01:21):
I was busy trying to find out that Rosie supports
a headline from a National Review Rosie O'Donnell, suicide bombers
aren't terrorists.
Speaker 2 (01:33):
We are because I don't what's the tell the backstory, because.
Speaker 4 (01:36):
I didn't remember this when you told me earlier.
Speaker 3 (01:38):
There was I knew there was some kind of connection
between Rosi Obamber Rosie O bomber bomber wows. There's the
Freudian slip of the day, right, and like a suicide bomber.
I could have sworn that she had dressed her son
up for Halloween as a suicide bomber, but I may
have had that wrong. But I knew there was a
(02:00):
nection there, So I just type that stuff into the
Google machine, and that's the headline that pops up.
Speaker 2 (02:05):
And that's what you were doing when I was playing,
because you're still he's dragging his absolutely obsessed over Rosie's
reference to Hi.
Speaker 4 (02:15):
This is Rosy o'donnald from the Flintstones?
Speaker 3 (02:18):
Like why why choose the Flintstones? The better movie was Tarzan.
If you're gonna go with the kids movie where she
was a voice of one of the characters in the
Tarzan animated movie. Or you can do a much better movie,
a league of their own. But you know that's see I.
Speaker 2 (02:33):
Could because before she went back crap crazy, she actually.
Speaker 4 (02:38):
Was talented, very good actress, yeah right, and she was
kind of funny, yeah, but then she went full nut job.
Speaker 3 (02:46):
She had that daytime television show and then just.
Speaker 2 (02:49):
Lost, totally lost. Mock mu Khalil. We're gonna go from
Rosie O'Donnell to mock mu Khalil. Everybody funny, I always
catch myself. It's it's just my vernacular, and I know
if I use it then somebody will chew me out
(03:10):
for it.
Speaker 4 (03:11):
A lot of people who oppose the Trump.
Speaker 2 (03:13):
Administration are really up in arms about this ongoing deportation
proceedings against mock Mood Khalil. Raise your hand if you
know who Mock Mood Khalil is. Drive do you have
the idea who this guy is?
Speaker 3 (03:28):
See? One of the protesters at the college is very good.
Speaker 2 (03:31):
In fact, he's the organizer of the protests at Columbia University.
He is a recent graduate of Columbia University. Too, just
to make sure you get the facts. He let me
play lawyer here. He allegedly led activities aligned to HAMAS,
which is of course a designated terrorist organization. Saturday, ICE
(03:56):
agents arrested Khalil. He is a Green card holder. He's
a native of Syria. We really should talk about Sirius
in time this week, and he is being held in
a detention facility nowhere near Columbia University. Yesterday I casually
(04:16):
mentioned something about a rid of habeas corpus. A rid
of habeas corpus is basically a petition to a court,
generally where you think the person is that you're trying
to have brought before the court. A rid of habeas
corpus is basically that, hey, judge, would you enter a
(04:37):
court an order ordering whoever has custody of this individual
to bring him before this court so we can adjudicate
whether or not he's entitled to bail, whether he's being held,
you know, under cruel and unusual punishment circumstances, what you know,
all sorts of reasons, sometimes just to find out where
the hell are you? And in this case, I think
(04:58):
it really is partly where the hell you are you now?
Normally that's just done where the act that caused an
arrest to occur, and that's why they went to a
court in Manhattan. But I think he's actually being don't
hold me to this, but I think he's being held
somewhere in Texas or something. He's at an ICE detention facility.
Speaker 4 (05:22):
I know that.
Speaker 2 (05:24):
Well, Monday, a federal judge ordered the government to not
deport him, and I don't have a problem with that.
I think he should be deported, which I'll get to
in a moment. But the judge, the federal judge, said no,
you can't deport him yet, citing a need to at
least have him get an opportunity to review a petition
(05:48):
that opposes his detention. Okay, well that's fine. This guy
arrived in this country from Syria in December of twenty two,
well two years ago, a little over two years ago,
and the minute he got here he started participating in
(06:08):
extremist movements on campus. Then, while attending Colombia, he acted
as a spokesperson for a group called some Stupid, coalition
of different Columbia University student organizations, all of which advocate
for the shared far left and islamistc goal of from
the river to the sea, the destruction of Israel. If
(06:31):
a some group called the Columbia University Apartheid, the Divest Coalition,
the CUAD Coalition apartheid, divest but get rid of everything
has to do with the Jews in Israel.
Speaker 4 (06:48):
Yes, precisely, that's exactly what it is.
Speaker 2 (06:52):
This organization has repeatedly called for violence, they've actually engaged
in violence. They've called for this options of teaching, they've
actually engaged in that against American and foreign institutions. Now,
there is a thread on X from Ryan Morrow of
(07:15):
the Capitol Research Center. It lists all of the incitement
and the support of terrorism that is related to this
group headed up by this Yahoo but just to get
and you can go see it. The X account is
Ryan Morow M A U R O. You can go
read it yourself. Anyway, back to just last week, he
(07:41):
participated in a disturbance at Barnard College along with apparently
someone's daughter. Elon Omar and birds of a feather really
do flock together. Now here's the key. When I use
(08:01):
the word disturbance, let me tell you kind of more
about what a disturbance was. They unlawfully trespassed and occupied
an academic building with the explicit purpose of shutting down
the campus. Now, I don't care whether you are an
(08:23):
American citizen, you're an illegal alien, you are a Martian,
you're an idiot, or you're a radio talk show producer,
the idiot talking about you know, the prim demsling thing.
He violated the law, but his mock mood's ideological allies
(08:49):
in corporate media and the cabal, and quite frankly in
politics too, because elon Omar's daughter, they're now declaring that
he's the victim and that he should be allowed. They're
trying to couch this in terms of First Amendment rights,
that he ought to be allowed to protest, that he
ought to be allowed to disrupt public and private proceedings,
(09:12):
just willy nilly as he decides he wants to do,
despite the fact why now, I don't say it that way,
including the fact that he's not an American citizen now,
and I want to distinguish from that, because even non
(09:33):
citizens when they are in this country. And I know
many of you disagree with this, but it's the law,
and it's quite frankly a law that I happen to
agree with, because well, let me tell you what the
law is. The law is is when you are on
American soil, you are subject to the laws of this country,
(09:54):
including the rights that we have. So you have a
right to free speech. You I have a right if
you can get someone to sell you, you have a
right to keep him bear arms. As long as you
follow all the applicable laws. You have a right against
an unlawful search and seizure. Just as if I go
(10:14):
to Belgium, I'm subject to the laws of Belgium or
the UK is a better example. If I go to
the United Kingdom, then I'm entitled to all of the
rights and privileges, which are not that many under UK law.
Speaker 4 (10:30):
So that if I go out and I.
Speaker 2 (10:32):
Offend somebody, which is why I could probably never broadcast
from the United Kingdom. If I offend somebody, then I'm
subject to arrest for having committed a speech offense. You know,
I express an opinion that caused you know, discomfort to somebody,
good grief. You know, I can never go be a
(10:54):
talk show host in London. Well, anyway, there are all
of his allies in government media, everybody, the entire left
is arguing that he's the victim, and he ought to
be allowed to protest, He ought to be allowed to
disrupt public and private.
Speaker 4 (11:10):
Proceedings just as he seems fit.
Speaker 2 (11:12):
And I'm thinking, under what theory of law to you,
would you argue that because he has a green card,
because he has some sort of you know, immigration status,
we wouldn't well, we shouldn't start to say we don't
allow American citizens to do it, but we allow students
on Columbia University to do it, or barn Our College
to do it. Those that oppose his deportation claim that
(11:39):
the mantle of free speech somehow protects him from activity,
that if you and I were to go engage in it.
Speaker 4 (11:48):
Someplace other than New York obviously or Denver.
Speaker 2 (11:52):
But if we were to go do this, say in
Houston or Oklahoma City or Kansas City or I don't care, well,
sint LOI is not a good example because they got
a Soros prosecutor. But in a Nonsorro's jurisdiction, we'd probably
be arrested. Now, we might not spend any much time
in jail. We'd probably get out. I could probably get
(12:13):
out of my own recognizance without posting a bond, and
I probably would get off with, you know, some sort
of probation or something because I'm not a criminal. But
it doesn't mean that I wouldn't be prosecuted. It doesn't
mean I wouldn't be held to be legally accountable for
my actions. But because this guy happens to be from
Syria and his name happens to be Mark Mood Khalil,
(12:36):
did everybody's bending over and grabbing their ankles because this
guy is, oh, oh.
Speaker 4 (12:40):
We shouldn't do this.
Speaker 2 (12:44):
I think that as probably most non citizens living in
this country probably understand, living in this country is a privilege,
it's not a right. If we're going to live in
a sovereign nation, then the United States government has got
to reserve the to toss out a non citizen when
they purposely trash this country by fanning the flames of
(13:08):
conflict and disharmony and offers support to foreign terrorist organizations.
And notice I've used all ends, not or and actually
violate the law. Now, let's think about this. If the
Trumble administration wanted to deport this Yahoo merely for just
(13:30):
sitting in a library, maybe even just disrupting a class,
without even covering the additional laundry list of incitement that
ought to be good enough grounds to launch him right
back to the Middle East. Any non citizen agitator who's
leading a movement demanding civil disobedience and engaging in incitement
(13:53):
of violence ought to be thrown out of the country period.
And you don't have to actually be a Jew to
support this. It is that he has violated the law.
It is well, I give you Senator Kennedy from Louisiana the.
Speaker 5 (14:13):
Time of administration. Are they right on this or is
this just a purist free speech play and this man
deserves his free free speech rights wherever they take us.
Speaker 4 (14:23):
They're right.
Speaker 6 (14:25):
The ACLU is defending mister Khalil. They say this is
a freedom of speech case. I support freedom of speech.
How else will we know who the idiots are without
freedom of speech? In this case is not about freedom
and speech. It's about civilized behavior. It's about national security,
(14:45):
it's about terrorism. Mister Coil is not an American citizen.
He's here with a green card by word. Indeed, at
Columbia he's shown that he supports amous. That's a violation
of the immigration in a naturalization action, which says you
can be deported if you support a terrorist organization.
Speaker 4 (15:06):
I love it when he actually cites the law.
Speaker 2 (15:09):
Yes, when you come here, you can't come here, and
we shouldn't even allowed you in if we have evidence
that you support materially, materially or otherwise a foreign terrorist organization.
Speaker 4 (15:24):
But we let him in.
Speaker 6 (15:25):
Here's the bottom line. Mister Khalil hates America. As you
said in your in your monologue, you know, if you're
not happy where you are, move if you're not a tree.
Speaker 7 (15:40):
Uh uh.
Speaker 6 (15:42):
Secretary Rubio is going to help you move. We may
lose in district court, depending on the judge that we get,
but we'll win this in the spring.
Speaker 5 (15:50):
They're hoping that they'll get the entire ine provision that
I cited thrown out as void for vagueness or just unconstitutional,
because again, there is some court president president that gives
non citizens the various constitutional rights, and it's pretty broad.
But this statute gives Rubio the presumption that if he
(16:12):
and his wisdom of national security information decides that this
guy is a threat, you're out.
Speaker 7 (16:20):
Well.
Speaker 6 (16:20):
Secretary Ubio has has almost unfettered discretion here.
Speaker 2 (16:26):
And Congress wrote the law that way. Why because again,
most authority over immigration has been lawfully given to the
executive branch. So this goes back to the whole idea
about Biden claiming that he could, well, I can't do
(16:47):
anything with that legislation. I let these people in. No,
you don't the immigration naturalization that gives you the authority
to stop it, but you chose not to do it.
And as Trump pointed out, we didn't need a law,
we just needed a new president. How you talking a
bit more about mister plil coming up in that, Hey,
(17:19):
let's go talk to Jeriffs over the Retirement Planning Center
of the Rock is Jerifs.
Speaker 4 (17:22):
How are you today?
Speaker 7 (17:23):
I'm doing great, Michael, thanks for asking.
Speaker 2 (17:26):
So we know the market's kind of crazy right now,
and I don't want to go into all the reasons why,
but it's kind of crazy. So there are probably people
kind of looking at that and going, oh, what about
my retirement money?
Speaker 4 (17:36):
What do you have to say to them?
Speaker 7 (17:38):
Yeah, we, Michael, we completely understand why people feel uneasy
right now. It's it's and you know you talk about
this too, but with all that's going on in the market,
there's there's a lot of unpredictable unpredictability out there, and
it's natural to worry about that kind of thing. But
the one thing that I try and remind my clients,
and I think it's important to remember, is we can't
(17:58):
predict what the market it's going to do tomorrow or
next week or next year. We can only prepare for
what the market's going to do in the future. And
so everytirement planning center, what what we try and help
our clients do is build a plan and a portfolio
that can handle a variety of these types of market environments.
And so instead of having to rely on guesswork in
that crystal ball, we focus on structuring things to provide stability.
(18:21):
And you know, fear comes. Fear comes when there's a
lack of clarity on what's going on and what the
plan is for the future. So when people lack clarity,
what happens is their mind, their mind kind of drifts
to the you know, the worst possible scenario.
Speaker 2 (18:35):
Right, And I never do that, not at all.
Speaker 7 (18:40):
We all do that too often, too often. And what
we're here to do is help people have confidence and
clarity in their plan. And so what that means is like,
let's make sure that someone, for example, someone's savings an
income is secure so that they're not tied to the
up and downs of the stock market. And if that's
the way that your portfolio is set up, then guess what,
you can leave your money in the market and you
(19:02):
can let it ride the roller coaster and ride out
the storm. Because the one thing my crystal ball does
tell me is that over time, the market's going to
be okay. So if we're not relying on the market
to provide the things that we need today, then we're
going to be in much better shape long term because
it's going to work out over time. And that's really
you know, our goal is really simple. No matter what
(19:22):
the market does, we want our clients to be confident
that they're on the right track. And that's you know,
we talked about this before we view Michael. That's what
our Summer Retirement Guide does is it helps us map
things out for folks so that they have all of
these different areas of their life checked and planned for.
And it's it's really about us helping people overcome the uncertainty.
And that's that's what we do. When we sit down
(19:44):
with folks, we help them review their plan. Sometimes it's
it's really amazing A quick conversation and a couple of
tweaks can put a lot more security into somebody's financial future.
Speaker 2 (19:55):
In fact, let me emphasize that because you know, one
of the things I talk about when I do your
spots is that if you already have a plan, just
go get this second opinion, because as you just pointed out,
you may look at the plan and all it needs
is just a couple of tweaks, or you may even
look at the plan and say, actually, this is exactly
what we would recommend. You're in good shape, you know, Yep,
no harm, no fallity.
Speaker 7 (20:17):
Yeah, that's exactly right. And we're not here to like
disrupt good things that are going on. We just want
to make sure that people are as prepared as they
can be and.
Speaker 2 (20:24):
That gives them peace of mind knowing that somebody else
has looked at it. So I would just say, I
would say to everybody out there that whether you have
a plan or not, and you're worried about something, these
are the guys you really need do need to talk to.
Speaker 4 (20:36):
I've gotten to know them.
Speaker 2 (20:37):
I promise you can absolutely trust their integrity. So whether
you have a retirement plan or you don't pick up
the phone and you call the Retirement Planning Center of
the Rockies. Don't put it off any longer. Call them
and tell them Michael Brown sent you. They can be
reached at nine seven zero six sixty three thirty two
eleven nine seven zero six six three thirty two eleven,
(20:57):
or or check out their website. Do it right now
rpcenter dot com. So we're talking about this Yahoo mackmou Khalil,
who thinks that he can just come in here, comes
from Syria, he can go to Columbia, get the green car,
goes to Columbia and can shut down the campus, shut
down classes, support jumas, and that nobody's going to go
(21:21):
after him. Now, I think he's been absolutely led to
believe that that's true. And even if he hasn't, he
doesn't care because he thinks he's going to escape. And
as Senator Kennedy was pointing out, we'll go back and
listen to Senator Kennedy, that's just not true.
Speaker 4 (21:41):
As he points out, we get, but.
Speaker 7 (21:46):
We'll win this.
Speaker 5 (21:47):
They're hoping that they'll get the entire i n A
provision that I cited thrown out as void for vagueness
or just unconstitutional, because again there is some court president
president that gives citizens the various constitutional rights.
Speaker 2 (22:03):
And here's I understand the point that Laura's trying to
make here, but I think she again is too consumed
in the moment, and I get this, but she needs
to remind her audience that, yes, the general principle is
(22:24):
that if you are in this country illegally or illegally
as student, visa, green card, temporary protective status, whatever it is,
you're still subject to the laws of the country. So, yes,
you have certain rights and privileges. But let's not forget
that what this guy engaged in was violence trespassing. He
(22:48):
was disrupting classes, things that if you did, you would
be probably arrested for. I think she skims over that
thinking she's more focused on the idea that, oh, people
are claiming that that portion of the Immigration and Naturalization
Act could be held on constitutional for vagueness. Well, I
(23:09):
would respectfully disagree with her, because it's been it's been
challenged one hundred times or more, and it's been upheld.
Speaker 7 (23:18):
It's pretty broad.
Speaker 5 (23:20):
But this statute gives Rubio the presumption that if he
and his wisdom of national security information decides that this
guy is a threat.
Speaker 2 (23:32):
You're out, And she's absolutely correct about that. Congress wrote
the law and gave the executive branch the presumption that
if you're here, I don't care what it is, illegally
tourist visa, green card, h one B visa, whatever it is,
if they determine that you are a threat to national security, boom,
(23:53):
you're out of here.
Speaker 6 (23:54):
Well, Secretar Rubio has has almost unfettered discretion here. But
but you know, you talked about it in your monologue.
There's a larger issue here. I blame I blame Colombia
for tolerating this.
Speaker 4 (24:07):
Amen.
Speaker 2 (24:08):
Finally somebody's pointing out, wait a minute, this is why
when Trump says, you know, I'm cutting off federal funding
to Columbia, I think it was fifty to fifty five
million dollars, I stand up and scream the Hellelujah chorus,
because they should. You are not just tolerating it, you are,
(24:30):
by example, advocating it. You're encouraging it.
Speaker 6 (24:36):
The administration and the faculty at Columbia that they're a
bunch of virtue crats and moral snobs. They believe in
in diversity, equity, inclusion, and the right to harash the
Jewish people, and the American people have given Columbia hundreds
of millions of dollars.
Speaker 4 (24:57):
We just wasted it.
Speaker 6 (24:58):
We've been better off taking that money and spending it
on scratch tickets and blackjack. And this insanity has got
to stop. And I'm proud of the President, and I'm
proud of Secretary.
Speaker 2 (25:10):
Of Rubia as we should be. Here's the Secretary himself.
You know, little Marco has proven to be an excellent choice.
Now again, I always put the caveat in all of
these people, all of these people, including Donald Trump. I
like criticized Donald Trump either yesterday or day before. All
(25:33):
of these people at some point or another are going
to disappoint you. But just don't just go throw them
across the over the cliff because they did one thing
that you're upset with. They're not like me that does
everything perfectly and you agree with everything I say. But
you know they can't all be like me. Rubio has
(25:53):
been wonderful. Listen to this.
Speaker 8 (25:56):
When you come to the United States as a visitor,
which is what a visa is, which is how this
individual into this country as on a visitor's visa. Okay,
you are here, the visitor. We can deny you that visa.
We can deny you that if you tell us when
you apply, HI, I'm trying to get into the United
States on a student visa. I am a big supporter
of Hamas, a murderous, barbaric group that kidnaps children, that
(26:18):
rapes teenage girls, that takes hostages, that allows them to
die in captivity, that returns more bodies than live hostages.
If you tell us that you are in favor of
a group like this, and if you tell us when
you apply for your visa, and by the way, I
intend to come to your country as a student and
rile up all kinds of anti Jewish student anti Semitic activities.
I intend to shut down your universities. If you told
(26:39):
us all these things when you applied for a visa,
we would deny your visa.
Speaker 4 (26:42):
I hope we would.
Speaker 8 (26:43):
If you actually end up doing that once you're in
this country on such a visa.
Speaker 6 (26:47):
We will revoke it.
Speaker 8 (26:49):
And if you end up having a green card, not citizenship,
but a green card as a result of that visa
while you're here in those activities, we're going to kick
you out.
Speaker 2 (26:56):
I think the secretary also inadvertently swerves into some thing
that is a problem that I hope he fixes, and
that is all of these immigration officials, all of the
customs and border patrol and ice officials that are sitting
in embassies all over the world, need to screen them
much better before they even get the visa to come here.
Speaker 4 (27:20):
Now.
Speaker 2 (27:20):
I know there are there are ways to make that
very efficient. You know, when you if I have to
go to a certain country that requires a visa, and
I go to the embassy or I file online my
requests for visa to go to China, well, China's going
(27:41):
to run a very quick background check on who is
this Yahoo. Now, I probably would not apply for a
visa to go visit China simply because of my background.
I don't want to take that risk in that particular
communist country. Other countries I might. I've often thought about
when I go back to Usha. I'm not sure that
(28:03):
I would. I'm not sure that I want right now.
I know that I don't want to, but I'm not
sure that I would even if the war wasn't going on,
simply because hmmm, boy, I do one little thing wrong,
They've got a high value target. Yeah, and I don't
want to end up like Aaron Gershkovitz or any of
(28:23):
the others that have been in prison, either rightly or wrongly.
But that's the kind of check that they will do.
We do the same thing, but we just boom boom
boom stamp too many because there are so many people.
We've got to find a better way to do this,
and I hope Rubio does that.
Speaker 9 (28:41):
Michael, I'm so happy we're trying to deport all these
anti Americans. Finally, these guys think they can come over
here and raise hell and terrorize our cities and our
universities and try to brainwash all the newbies coming up
in the life time to get rid of them.
Speaker 2 (29:01):
It is, and I agree, But let me prepare you
for the opposition, because while it is true that a
legal permanent resident does enjoy certain constitutional protections, those rights
are not absolute, nor are they necessarily coextensive with those
(29:21):
of American citizens, particularly when it comes to this area
of immigration and national security. And there's precedent. There's old
precedent I'm talking about, going back to nineteen oh four,
where the courts of Uphold, the Supreme Court is upheld
that Congress has this broad authority to exclude or to
(29:43):
remove an alien on ideological grounds. In other words, let's
set this, y'all, who aside for a moment someone who
is a self avowed communist that wants to come here.
We don't have to do that. You could do it
(30:03):
on ideological grounds. That nineteen oh four case that I
refer to in case you're curious, it's Turner versus Williams.
Non citizens can be expelled for simply advocating beliefs that
are inimical or in opposition to our national security interests. Now,
(30:26):
I know I'm one that is always berating this overly
broad use of national security to stop things. But when
it goes back to the very basic premise that coming
to this country is a privilege, not a right. I
don't care you live in Sri Lanka. I don't care.
(30:47):
You don't have a right to come to this country
anymore than countries that require a visa for me to
travel to them does not grant me. I do not
have a right to go to Beijing. I do not
have a right to go to Moscow. I need a
visa to do that, and they can exclude me for
(31:09):
any reason, or more importantly, they can exclude me for
no reason, you can also be precluded and the courts
and they're not so old case. I think it's maybe
ten or fifteen years old now said that you can
you it upheld these prohibitions like I just described based
(31:34):
on your actions that are deemed to materially support terrorist organizations,
even if that support only takes the form of speech.
So even if all these yahoos that are arguing were
somehow violating this guy's free speech rights, well wait a minute,
(31:54):
the executive branch has the right to determine that the
speech is providing support for HAMAS and that you are
here on a visa. Now, can I let's draw a
distinction if I go out and say, let me think
(32:14):
of how how I would word it, because well, I
don't want to take them out of context, and two
I want to be pretty particular about this. If I
were to say, you know what, HAMAS, isn't that bad? Uh,
that's protected by free speech. If I say that I
support HAMAS and that I think you ought to, you know,
(32:37):
go here's a go fundme page and you ought to
make a contribution, I'm now materially supporting HAMAS. But what
are they going to do with me? Well, they probably
could try to prosecute me. They might have a difficult time,
you know, convincing a jury that I was really doing it.
But then again, maybe they wouldn't. I if I went
(32:59):
on the course, iHeart to have a problem with this too.
But setting aside iHeart for a moment, if I really
started advocating for a material support of Hamas, not only
would High Art probably terminate the contract, but they probably
might have good day. Not iHeart, the government have good
grounds for prosecuting me, because I'm actually trying to get
(33:20):
you to go write a check or give your credit
card to some fundraising outfit that's going to then give
the money to people who are killing civilians, people that
this country has deemed to be a foreign terrorist organization.
(33:41):
So the Trump's reliance on national security interests, I think
it's just additional constitutional justification for kicking.
Speaker 4 (33:50):
This Yahoo out.
Speaker 2 (33:51):
But I just want to prepare you that all you're
going to hear about is this Yaho's free speech rights.
Don't forget he unlawfully trespassed and occupied a building. He
prevented students, particularly Jews, from going to class. Send his
ass back to Syria.
Michael as a descendant of the native peoples of this continent.
I would like to officially fake and praise Rosie O'Donnell
for finally doing what every white liberal claims they want
and have all Europeans returned to their native lands, at
least the liberal woods.
Speaker 2 (00:22):
Dragon I both commented that we actually admire her for
doing what she said she was going to do. Now
she's the only one. And in the nine minutes, you know,
just because I'm lazy and just want to irritate people,
I'm so passive aggressive. It's oh, I need counseling for it.
(00:44):
I attempted to just you know, I think I could
easily just kill nine minutes by just starting that clip
and just letting it run.
Speaker 3 (00:50):
I do love this talk this text message, though. Dragon,
I'm gonna let you roll with it as long as
click run commercial. You are an awesome producer.
Speaker 2 (01:01):
Well, he was back there and I'm playing it, and
I'm looking at the clock, and I realized we got
a break coming up, and I'm thinking do I I'm
modestly thinking to myself, do I just bring this to
an end? Or did just let it roll and see
how long? And then he just keeps looking down. I
finally realized, like, I'm gonna have to because he's not
paying the attention.
Speaker 3 (01:21):
I was busy trying to find out that Rosie supports
a headline from a National Review Rosie O'Donnell, suicide bombers
aren't terrorists.
Speaker 2 (01:33):
We are because I don't what's the tell the backstory, because.
Speaker 4 (01:36):
I didn't remember this when you told me earlier.
Speaker 3 (01:38):
There was I knew there was some kind of connection
between Rosi Obamber Rosie O bomber bomber wows. There's the
Freudian slip of the day, right, and like a suicide bomber.
I could have sworn that she had dressed her son
up for Halloween as a suicide bomber, but I may
have had that wrong. But I knew there was a
(02:00):
nection there, So I just type that stuff into the
Google machine, and that's the headline that pops up.
Speaker 2 (02:05):
And that's what you were doing when I was playing,
because you're still he's dragging his absolutely obsessed over Rosie's
reference to Hi.
Speaker 4 (02:15):
This is Rosy o'donnald from the Flintstones?
Speaker 3 (02:18):
Like why why choose the Flintstones? The better movie was Tarzan.
If you're gonna go with the kids movie where she
was a voice of one of the characters in the
Tarzan animated movie. Or you can do a much better movie,
a league of their own. But you know that's see I.
Speaker 2 (02:33):
Could because before she went back crap crazy, she actually.
Speaker 4 (02:38):
Was talented, very good actress, yeah right, and she was
kind of funny, yeah, but then she went full nut job.
Speaker 3 (02:46):
She had that daytime television show and then just.
Speaker 2 (02:49):
Lost, totally lost. Mock mu Khalil. We're gonna go from
Rosie O'Donnell to mock mu Khalil. Everybody funny, I always
catch myself. It's it's just my vernacular, and I know
if I use it then somebody will chew me out
(03:10):
for it.
Speaker 4 (03:11):
A lot of people who oppose the Trump.
Speaker 2 (03:13):
Administration are really up in arms about this ongoing deportation
proceedings against mock Mood Khalil. Raise your hand if you
know who Mock Mood Khalil is. Drive do you have
the idea who this guy is?
Speaker 3 (03:28):
See? One of the protesters at the college is very good.
Speaker 2 (03:31):
In fact, he's the organizer of the protests at Columbia University.
He is a recent graduate of Columbia University. Too, just
to make sure you get the facts. He let me
play lawyer here. He allegedly led activities aligned to HAMAS,
which is of course a designated terrorist organization. Saturday, ICE
(03:56):
agents arrested Khalil. He is a Green card holder. He's
a native of Syria. We really should talk about Sirius
in time this week, and he is being held in
a detention facility nowhere near Columbia University. Yesterday I casually
(04:16):
mentioned something about a rid of habeas corpus. A rid
of habeas corpus is basically a petition to a court,
generally where you think the person is that you're trying
to have brought before the court. A rid of habeas
corpus is basically that, hey, judge, would you enter a
(04:37):
court an order ordering whoever has custody of this individual
to bring him before this court so we can adjudicate
whether or not he's entitled to bail, whether he's being held,
you know, under cruel and unusual punishment circumstances, what you know,
all sorts of reasons, sometimes just to find out where
the hell are you? And in this case, I think
(04:58):
it really is partly where the hell you are you now?
Normally that's just done where the act that caused an
arrest to occur, and that's why they went to a
court in Manhattan. But I think he's actually being don't
hold me to this, but I think he's being held
somewhere in Texas or something. He's at an ICE detention facility.
Speaker 4 (05:22):
I know that.
Speaker 2 (05:24):
Well, Monday, a federal judge ordered the government to not
deport him, and I don't have a problem with that.
I think he should be deported, which I'll get to
in a moment. But the judge, the federal judge, said no,
you can't deport him yet, citing a need to at
least have him get an opportunity to review a petition
(05:48):
that opposes his detention. Okay, well that's fine. This guy
arrived in this country from Syria in December of twenty two,
well two years ago, a little over two years ago,
and the minute he got here he started participating in
(06:08):
extremist movements on campus. Then, while attending Colombia, he acted
as a spokesperson for a group called some Stupid, coalition
of different Columbia University student organizations, all of which advocate
for the shared far left and islamistc goal of from
the river to the sea, the destruction of Israel. If
(06:31):
a some group called the Columbia University Apartheid, the Divest Coalition,
the CUAD Coalition apartheid, divest but get rid of everything
has to do with the Jews in Israel.
Speaker 4 (06:48):
Yes, precisely, that's exactly what it is.
Speaker 2 (06:52):
This organization has repeatedly called for violence, they've actually engaged
in violence. They've called for this options of teaching, they've
actually engaged in that against American and foreign institutions. Now,
there is a thread on X from Ryan Morrow of
(07:15):
the Capitol Research Center. It lists all of the incitement
and the support of terrorism that is related to this
group headed up by this Yahoo but just to get
and you can go see it. The X account is
Ryan Morow M A U R O. You can go
read it yourself. Anyway, back to just last week, he
(07:41):
participated in a disturbance at Barnard College along with apparently
someone's daughter. Elon Omar and birds of a feather really
do flock together. Now here's the key. When I use
(08:01):
the word disturbance, let me tell you kind of more
about what a disturbance was. They unlawfully trespassed and occupied
an academic building with the explicit purpose of shutting down
the campus. Now, I don't care whether you are an
(08:23):
American citizen, you're an illegal alien, you are a Martian,
you're an idiot, or you're a radio talk show producer,
the idiot talking about you know, the prim demsling thing.
He violated the law, but his mock mood's ideological allies
(08:49):
in corporate media and the cabal, and quite frankly in
politics too, because elon Omar's daughter, they're now declaring that
he's the victim and that he should be allowed. They're
trying to couch this in terms of First Amendment rights,
that he ought to be allowed to protest, that he
ought to be allowed to disrupt public and private proceedings,
(09:12):
just willy nilly as he decides he wants to do,
despite the fact why now, I don't say it that way,
including the fact that he's not an American citizen now,
and I want to distinguish from that, because even non
(09:33):
citizens when they are in this country. And I know
many of you disagree with this, but it's the law,
and it's quite frankly a law that I happen to
agree with, because well, let me tell you what the
law is. The law is is when you are on
American soil, you are subject to the laws of this country,
(09:54):
including the rights that we have. So you have a
right to free speech. You I have a right if
you can get someone to sell you, you have a
right to keep him bear arms. As long as you
follow all the applicable laws. You have a right against
an unlawful search and seizure. Just as if I go
(10:14):
to Belgium, I'm subject to the laws of Belgium or
the UK is a better example. If I go to
the United Kingdom, then I'm entitled to all of the
rights and privileges, which are not that many under UK law.
Speaker 4 (10:30):
So that if I go out and I.
Speaker 2 (10:32):
Offend somebody, which is why I could probably never broadcast
from the United Kingdom. If I offend somebody, then I'm
subject to arrest for having committed a speech offense. You know,
I express an opinion that caused you know, discomfort to somebody,
good grief. You know, I can never go be a
(10:54):
talk show host in London. Well, anyway, there are all
of his allies in government media, everybody, the entire left
is arguing that he's the victim, and he ought to
be allowed to protest, He ought to be allowed to
disrupt public and private.
Speaker 4 (11:10):
Proceedings just as he seems fit.
Speaker 2 (11:12):
And I'm thinking, under what theory of law to you,
would you argue that because he has a green card,
because he has some sort of you know, immigration status,
we wouldn't well, we shouldn't start to say we don't
allow American citizens to do it, but we allow students
on Columbia University to do it, or barn Our College
to do it. Those that oppose his deportation claim that
(11:39):
the mantle of free speech somehow protects him from activity,
that if you and I were to go engage in it.
Speaker 4 (11:48):
Someplace other than New York obviously or Denver.
Speaker 2 (11:52):
But if we were to go do this, say in
Houston or Oklahoma City or Kansas City or I don't care, well,
sint LOI is not a good example because they got
a Soros prosecutor. But in a Nonsorro's jurisdiction, we'd probably
be arrested. Now, we might not spend any much time
in jail. We'd probably get out. I could probably get
(12:13):
out of my own recognizance without posting a bond, and
I probably would get off with, you know, some sort
of probation or something because I'm not a criminal. But
it doesn't mean that I wouldn't be prosecuted. It doesn't
mean I wouldn't be held to be legally accountable for
my actions. But because this guy happens to be from
Syria and his name happens to be Mark Mood Khalil,
(12:36):
did everybody's bending over and grabbing their ankles because this
guy is, oh, oh.
Speaker 4 (12:40):
We shouldn't do this.
Speaker 2 (12:44):
I think that as probably most non citizens living in
this country probably understand, living in this country is a privilege,
it's not a right. If we're going to live in
a sovereign nation, then the United States government has got
to reserve the to toss out a non citizen when
they purposely trash this country by fanning the flames of
(13:08):
conflict and disharmony and offers support to foreign terrorist organizations.
And notice I've used all ends, not or and actually
violate the law. Now, let's think about this. If the
Trumble administration wanted to deport this Yahoo merely for just
(13:30):
sitting in a library, maybe even just disrupting a class,
without even covering the additional laundry list of incitement that
ought to be good enough grounds to launch him right
back to the Middle East. Any non citizen agitator who's
leading a movement demanding civil disobedience and engaging in incitement
(13:53):
of violence ought to be thrown out of the country period.
And you don't have to actually be a Jew to
support this. It is that he has violated the law.
It is well, I give you Senator Kennedy from Louisiana the.
Speaker 5 (14:13):
Time of administration. Are they right on this or is
this just a purist free speech play and this man
deserves his free free speech rights wherever they take us.
Speaker 4 (14:23):
They're right.
Speaker 6 (14:25):
The ACLU is defending mister Khalil. They say this is
a freedom of speech case. I support freedom of speech.
How else will we know who the idiots are without
freedom of speech? In this case is not about freedom
and speech. It's about civilized behavior. It's about national security,
(14:45):
it's about terrorism. Mister Coil is not an American citizen.
He's here with a green card by word. Indeed, at
Columbia he's shown that he supports amous. That's a violation
of the immigration in a naturalization action, which says you
can be deported if you support a terrorist organization.
Speaker 4 (15:06):
I love it when he actually cites the law.
Speaker 2 (15:09):
Yes, when you come here, you can't come here, and
we shouldn't even allowed you in if we have evidence
that you support materially, materially or otherwise a foreign terrorist organization.
Speaker 4 (15:24):
But we let him in.
Speaker 6 (15:25):
Here's the bottom line. Mister Khalil hates America. As you
said in your in your monologue, you know, if you're
not happy where you are, move if you're not a tree.
Speaker 7 (15:40):
Uh uh.
Speaker 6 (15:42):
Secretary Rubio is going to help you move. We may
lose in district court, depending on the judge that we get,
but we'll win this in the spring.
Speaker 5 (15:50):
They're hoping that they'll get the entire ine provision that
I cited thrown out as void for vagueness or just unconstitutional,
because again, there is some court president president that gives
non citizens the various constitutional rights, and it's pretty broad.
But this statute gives Rubio the presumption that if he
(16:12):
and his wisdom of national security information decides that this
guy is a threat, you're out.
Speaker 7 (16:20):
Well.
Speaker 6 (16:20):
Secretary Ubio has has almost unfettered discretion here.
Speaker 2 (16:26):
And Congress wrote the law that way. Why because again,
most authority over immigration has been lawfully given to the
executive branch. So this goes back to the whole idea
about Biden claiming that he could, well, I can't do
(16:47):
anything with that legislation. I let these people in. No,
you don't the immigration naturalization that gives you the authority
to stop it, but you chose not to do it.
And as Trump pointed out, we didn't need a law,
we just needed a new president. How you talking a
bit more about mister plil coming up in that, Hey,
(17:19):
let's go talk to Jeriffs over the Retirement Planning Center
of the Rock is Jerifs.
Speaker 4 (17:22):
How are you today?
Speaker 7 (17:23):
I'm doing great, Michael, thanks for asking.
Speaker 2 (17:26):
So we know the market's kind of crazy right now,
and I don't want to go into all the reasons why,
but it's kind of crazy. So there are probably people
kind of looking at that and going, oh, what about
my retirement money?
Speaker 4 (17:36):
What do you have to say to them?
Speaker 7 (17:38):
Yeah, we, Michael, we completely understand why people feel uneasy
right now. It's it's and you know you talk about
this too, but with all that's going on in the market,
there's there's a lot of unpredictable unpredictability out there, and
it's natural to worry about that kind of thing. But
the one thing that I try and remind my clients,
and I think it's important to remember, is we can't
(17:58):
predict what the market it's going to do tomorrow or
next week or next year. We can only prepare for
what the market's going to do in the future. And
so everytirement planning center, what what we try and help
our clients do is build a plan and a portfolio
that can handle a variety of these types of market environments.
And so instead of having to rely on guesswork in
that crystal ball, we focus on structuring things to provide stability.
(18:21):
And you know, fear comes. Fear comes when there's a
lack of clarity on what's going on and what the
plan is for the future. So when people lack clarity,
what happens is their mind, their mind kind of drifts
to the you know, the worst possible scenario.
Speaker 2 (18:35):
Right, And I never do that, not at all.
Speaker 7 (18:40):
We all do that too often, too often. And what
we're here to do is help people have confidence and
clarity in their plan. And so what that means is like,
let's make sure that someone, for example, someone's savings an
income is secure so that they're not tied to the
up and downs of the stock market. And if that's
the way that your portfolio is set up, then guess what,
you can leave your money in the market and you
(19:02):
can let it ride the roller coaster and ride out
the storm. Because the one thing my crystal ball does
tell me is that over time, the market's going to
be okay. So if we're not relying on the market
to provide the things that we need today, then we're
going to be in much better shape long term because
it's going to work out over time. And that's really
you know, our goal is really simple. No matter what
(19:22):
the market does, we want our clients to be confident
that they're on the right track. And that's you know,
we talked about this before we view Michael. That's what
our Summer Retirement Guide does is it helps us map
things out for folks so that they have all of
these different areas of their life checked and planned for.
And it's it's really about us helping people overcome the uncertainty.
And that's that's what we do. When we sit down
(19:44):
with folks, we help them review their plan. Sometimes it's
it's really amazing A quick conversation and a couple of
tweaks can put a lot more security into somebody's financial future.
Speaker 2 (19:55):
In fact, let me emphasize that because you know, one
of the things I talk about when I do your
spots is that if you already have a plan, just
go get this second opinion, because as you just pointed out,
you may look at the plan and all it needs
is just a couple of tweaks, or you may even
look at the plan and say, actually, this is exactly
what we would recommend. You're in good shape, you know, Yep,
no harm, no fallity.
Speaker 7 (20:17):
Yeah, that's exactly right. And we're not here to like
disrupt good things that are going on. We just want
to make sure that people are as prepared as they
can be and.
Speaker 2 (20:24):
That gives them peace of mind knowing that somebody else
has looked at it. So I would just say, I
would say to everybody out there that whether you have
a plan or not, and you're worried about something, these
are the guys you really need do need to talk to.
Speaker 4 (20:36):
I've gotten to know them.
Speaker 2 (20:37):
I promise you can absolutely trust their integrity. So whether
you have a retirement plan or you don't pick up
the phone and you call the Retirement Planning Center of
the Rockies. Don't put it off any longer. Call them
and tell them Michael Brown sent you. They can be
reached at nine seven zero six sixty three thirty two
eleven nine seven zero six six three thirty two eleven,
(20:57):
or or check out their website. Do it right now
rpcenter dot com. So we're talking about this Yahoo mackmou Khalil,
who thinks that he can just come in here, comes
from Syria, he can go to Columbia, get the green car,
goes to Columbia and can shut down the campus, shut
down classes, support jumas, and that nobody's going to go
(21:21):
after him. Now, I think he's been absolutely led to
believe that that's true. And even if he hasn't, he
doesn't care because he thinks he's going to escape. And
as Senator Kennedy was pointing out, we'll go back and
listen to Senator Kennedy, that's just not true.
Speaker 4 (21:41):
As he points out, we get, but.
Speaker 7 (21:46):
We'll win this.
Speaker 5 (21:47):
They're hoping that they'll get the entire i n A
provision that I cited thrown out as void for vagueness
or just unconstitutional, because again there is some court president
president that gives citizens the various constitutional rights.
Speaker 2 (22:03):
And here's I understand the point that Laura's trying to
make here, but I think she again is too consumed
in the moment, and I get this, but she needs
to remind her audience that, yes, the general principle is
(22:24):
that if you are in this country illegally or illegally
as student, visa, green card, temporary protective status, whatever it is,
you're still subject to the laws of the country. So, yes,
you have certain rights and privileges. But let's not forget
that what this guy engaged in was violence trespassing. He
(22:48):
was disrupting classes, things that if you did, you would
be probably arrested for. I think she skims over that
thinking she's more focused on the idea that, oh, people
are claiming that that portion of the Immigration and Naturalization
Act could be held on constitutional for vagueness. Well, I
(23:09):
would respectfully disagree with her, because it's been it's been
challenged one hundred times or more, and it's been upheld.
Speaker 7 (23:18):
It's pretty broad.
Speaker 5 (23:20):
But this statute gives Rubio the presumption that if he
and his wisdom of national security information decides that this
guy is a threat.
Speaker 2 (23:32):
You're out, And she's absolutely correct about that. Congress wrote
the law and gave the executive branch the presumption that
if you're here, I don't care what it is, illegally
tourist visa, green card, h one B visa, whatever it is,
if they determine that you are a threat to national security, boom,
(23:53):
you're out of here.
Speaker 6 (23:54):
Well, Secretar Rubio has has almost unfettered discretion here. But
but you know, you talked about it in your monologue.
There's a larger issue here. I blame I blame Colombia
for tolerating this.
Speaker 4 (24:07):
Amen.
Speaker 2 (24:08):
Finally somebody's pointing out, wait a minute, this is why
when Trump says, you know, I'm cutting off federal funding
to Columbia, I think it was fifty to fifty five
million dollars, I stand up and scream the Hellelujah chorus,
because they should. You are not just tolerating it, you are,
(24:30):
by example, advocating it. You're encouraging it.
Speaker 6 (24:36):
The administration and the faculty at Columbia that they're a
bunch of virtue crats and moral snobs. They believe in
in diversity, equity, inclusion, and the right to harash the
Jewish people, and the American people have given Columbia hundreds
of millions of dollars.
Speaker 4 (24:57):
We just wasted it.
Speaker 6 (24:58):
We've been better off taking that money and spending it
on scratch tickets and blackjack. And this insanity has got
to stop. And I'm proud of the President, and I'm
proud of Secretary.
Speaker 2 (25:10):
Of Rubia as we should be. Here's the Secretary himself.
You know, little Marco has proven to be an excellent choice.
Now again, I always put the caveat in all of
these people, all of these people, including Donald Trump. I
like criticized Donald Trump either yesterday or day before. All
(25:33):
of these people at some point or another are going
to disappoint you. But just don't just go throw them
across the over the cliff because they did one thing
that you're upset with. They're not like me that does
everything perfectly and you agree with everything I say. But
you know they can't all be like me. Rubio has
(25:53):
been wonderful. Listen to this.
Speaker 8 (25:56):
When you come to the United States as a visitor,
which is what a visa is, which is how this
individual into this country as on a visitor's visa. Okay,
you are here, the visitor. We can deny you that visa.
We can deny you that if you tell us when
you apply, HI, I'm trying to get into the United
States on a student visa. I am a big supporter
of Hamas, a murderous, barbaric group that kidnaps children, that
(26:18):
rapes teenage girls, that takes hostages, that allows them to
die in captivity, that returns more bodies than live hostages.
If you tell us that you are in favor of
a group like this, and if you tell us when
you apply for your visa, and by the way, I
intend to come to your country as a student and
rile up all kinds of anti Jewish student anti Semitic activities.
I intend to shut down your universities. If you told
(26:39):
us all these things when you applied for a visa,
we would deny your visa.
Speaker 4 (26:42):
I hope we would.
Speaker 8 (26:43):
If you actually end up doing that once you're in
this country on such a visa.
Speaker 6 (26:47):
We will revoke it.
Speaker 8 (26:49):
And if you end up having a green card, not citizenship,
but a green card as a result of that visa
while you're here in those activities, we're going to kick
you out.
Speaker 2 (26:56):
I think the secretary also inadvertently swerves into some thing
that is a problem that I hope he fixes, and
that is all of these immigration officials, all of the
customs and border patrol and ice officials that are sitting
in embassies all over the world, need to screen them
much better before they even get the visa to come here.
Speaker 4 (27:20):
Now.
Speaker 2 (27:20):
I know there are there are ways to make that
very efficient. You know, when you if I have to
go to a certain country that requires a visa, and
I go to the embassy or I file online my
requests for visa to go to China, well, China's going
(27:41):
to run a very quick background check on who is
this Yahoo. Now, I probably would not apply for a
visa to go visit China simply because of my background.
I don't want to take that risk in that particular
communist country. Other countries I might. I've often thought about
when I go back to Usha. I'm not sure that
(28:03):
I would. I'm not sure that I want right now.
I know that I don't want to, but I'm not
sure that I would even if the war wasn't going on,
simply because hmmm, boy, I do one little thing wrong,
They've got a high value target. Yeah, and I don't
want to end up like Aaron Gershkovitz or any of
(28:23):
the others that have been in prison, either rightly or wrongly.
But that's the kind of check that they will do.
We do the same thing, but we just boom boom
boom stamp too many because there are so many people.
We've got to find a better way to do this,
and I hope Rubio does that.
Speaker 9 (28:41):
Michael, I'm so happy we're trying to deport all these
anti Americans. Finally, these guys think they can come over
here and raise hell and terrorize our cities and our
universities and try to brainwash all the newbies coming up
in the life time to get rid of them.
Speaker 2 (29:01):
It is, and I agree, But let me prepare you
for the opposition, because while it is true that a
legal permanent resident does enjoy certain constitutional protections, those rights
are not absolute, nor are they necessarily coextensive with those
(29:21):
of American citizens, particularly when it comes to this area
of immigration and national security. And there's precedent. There's old
precedent I'm talking about, going back to nineteen oh four,
where the courts of Uphold, the Supreme Court is upheld
that Congress has this broad authority to exclude or to
(29:43):
remove an alien on ideological grounds. In other words, let's
set this, y'all, who aside for a moment someone who
is a self avowed communist that wants to come here.
We don't have to do that. You could do it
(30:03):
on ideological grounds. That nineteen oh four case that I
refer to in case you're curious, it's Turner versus Williams.
Non citizens can be expelled for simply advocating beliefs that
are inimical or in opposition to our national security interests. Now,
(30:26):
I know I'm one that is always berating this overly
broad use of national security to stop things. But when
it goes back to the very basic premise that coming
to this country is a privilege, not a right. I
don't care you live in Sri Lanka. I don't care.
(30:47):
You don't have a right to come to this country
anymore than countries that require a visa for me to
travel to them does not grant me. I do not
have a right to go to Beijing. I do not
have a right to go to Moscow. I need a
visa to do that, and they can exclude me for
(31:09):
any reason, or more importantly, they can exclude me for
no reason, you can also be precluded and the courts
and they're not so old case. I think it's maybe
ten or fifteen years old now said that you can
you it upheld these prohibitions like I just described based
(31:34):
on your actions that are deemed to materially support terrorist organizations,
even if that support only takes the form of speech.
So even if all these yahoos that are arguing were
somehow violating this guy's free speech rights, well wait a minute,
(31:54):
the executive branch has the right to determine that the
speech is providing support for HAMAS and that you are
here on a visa. Now, can I let's draw a
distinction if I go out and say, let me think
(32:14):
of how how I would word it, because well, I
don't want to take them out of context, and two
I want to be pretty particular about this. If I
were to say, you know what, HAMAS, isn't that bad? Uh,
that's protected by free speech. If I say that I
support HAMAS and that I think you ought to, you know,
(32:37):
go here's a go fundme page and you ought to
make a contribution, I'm now materially supporting HAMAS. But what
are they going to do with me? Well, they probably
could try to prosecute me. They might have a difficult time,
you know, convincing a jury that I was really doing it.
But then again, maybe they wouldn't. I if I went
(32:59):
on the course, iHeart to have a problem with this too.
But setting aside iHeart for a moment, if I really
started advocating for a material support of Hamas, not only
would High Art probably terminate the contract, but they probably
might have good day. Not iHeart, the government have good
grounds for prosecuting me, because I'm actually trying to get
(33:20):
you to go write a check or give your credit
card to some fundraising outfit that's going to then give
the money to people who are killing civilians, people that
this country has deemed to be a foreign terrorist organization.
(33:41):
So the Trump's reliance on national security interests, I think
it's just additional constitutional justification for kicking.
Speaker 4 (33:50):
This Yahoo out.
Speaker 2 (33:51):
But I just want to prepare you that all you're
going to hear about is this Yaho's free speech rights.
Don't forget he unlawfully trespassed and occupied a building. He
prevented students, particularly Jews, from going to class. Send his
ass back to Syria.
