The Popcord Moment, brought to you by Boer Remodeling b

Speaker 2 (00:08):
Do we have to wait? Can we just get into it?
Do we have to He's Tony Katz ninety three WIBC,
Good morning, the popcort Moment. Let's go, Let's go, Let's go,
Let's go. It's a story you need to hear to believe.
Speaker 1 (00:20):
Then grab your popcorn because there is more really quick.
This whole story about Billy Long being removed as the
IRS Commissioner just two months into the job. He is
now going to become the ambassador to Iceland. So if
you ask me, hey, is that a demotion, the answer
is yeah, yeah, there's no.
Speaker 2 (00:42):
Question that it's a demotion. The question is why did
it happen? There is.
Speaker 1 (00:50):
What's the word I'm looking for? There is a rumor
out there that the Trump administration wanted some specific information
relating to taxes of people in the country illegally, and
(01:11):
the I R S wouldn't turn it over, and so therefore.
Speaker 2 (01:15):
He was removed. I can't tell you if that's true.
Speaker 1 (01:18):
Billy Long's former congressman from Missouri and is now going
to be moving over to be the Ambassador of Iceland.
Scott Bessant is going to be leading the I R
S as Treasury Secretary on an interim basis. He's trying
to get as many titles as Marco Rubio has. Basically,
(01:39):
that's that's that's what's happening there. So that was an
interesting story, and I think some people wanted to create
some drama for that for like a half a minute
and then and then nothing.
Speaker 2 (01:51):
Nothing came up of it, absolutely nothing.
Speaker 1 (01:55):
Then there was this I wasn't gonna do a whole
redistricting conversation. You know what, I'm going to hold the
redistricting conversation. I'm gonna hold that because jab Pritzker was
an absolute treat. Can I share with you, Senator Kelly
of Arizona talking about the border. When something is working,
(02:18):
stop trying to make people think that it's not working.
It's a very odd thing that the America favors what's
happening with the border, and the political left keeps pushing
back on this.
Speaker 2 (02:33):
That is so Fetch, Gretchen, stop trying to make Fetch happen.
It's not going to happen. In this case. Fetch has happened.
The border is a success.
Speaker 1 (02:45):
The stopping of people crossing illegally, the removal of people
from the country, the arrests of those are here illegally.
Speaker 2 (02:54):
It's a success.
Speaker 1 (02:56):
The argument from the left is that it is possible
that someone got caught up in it. This is their
argument that someone got caught up in it. This is
Senator Mark Kelly. I think it right right now.
Speaker 3 (03:14):
I think you have to draw a distinction with what
is going on at the border and enforcing border security
and making sure fentanyl isn't coming through our southern border,
but also the smuggling of migrants that wasn't working, but
rounding up people in their communities and mass deportation and
(03:36):
ICE agents showing up massed at schools. I've been trying
to help out a kid that's in detention. He was
fourteen years old. He lives in Chandler, Arizona, and he
was picked up going to school. I had another situation
here with a kid who was on his little league
trip in a baseball tournament. Border patrol pulled over the vehicle,
(04:01):
identifies as a brown kid. He winds up in lock
up for.
Speaker 2 (04:06):
The brown kid. We get it. We get it.
Speaker 1 (04:08):
Like you actually care about brown kids, Senator Kelly don't.
Speaker 2 (04:11):
Don't.
Speaker 1 (04:12):
If you cared about brown kids and black kids, you
would have been talking about the border when Joe Biden
was in office, but you didn't, and Representative Cosia Cortez didn't.
Although she takes those photo ops and she cries at
the border wearing all white like she's going to a
Memorial Day party, you don't care about black and brown kids.
Speaker 2 (04:28):
Who are you kidding?
Speaker 1 (04:29):
I would say it to your face without any hesitation. You,
Senator Mark Kelly, don't care about black and brown children.
Please don't bring that up. You didn't care when Joe
Biden was in office. Now, if I miss something, I'll
be the first guy to apologize. But as a party,
you don't. You don't care of Cosio Cortez. Representative Costa
(04:49):
Cortez doesn't care. But I think that we have a
real story time here where you want us to feel
feel bad because a kid going to school was arrested.
Speaker 2 (05:03):
A couple things.
Speaker 1 (05:05):
Should the kid have been in the country, that's number one,
that's a legitimate question, how did they get to the country.
Speaker 2 (05:11):
Number two, if my kids, your kids.
Speaker 1 (05:15):
Sell lemonade without a permit, police come and shut us down.
Can I help you, Senator Kelly, This is the argument
you want to make.
Speaker 2 (05:27):
This is the argument you want to make.
Speaker 1 (05:32):
I have kids all across the country who go without
Who are American citizens who have issues? Who are American
citizens who get abused by the system, American citizens.
Speaker 2 (05:46):
Were these kids in the country legally or not? Who is?
Speaker 1 (05:49):
Where are their parents? Where are their guardians? What's going
on here? With all due respect, we're dealing with a
large scale problem that both parties ignored and your party
exacerbated over four years because you were unwilling to state
that Joe Biden wasn't competent and wasn't capable being president,
and Alejandro Mayorcis was a joke, a joke of a
(06:13):
human being, a joke of a Homeland Security secretary.
Speaker 2 (06:19):
You don't have an argument here. You don't have anything
close to an argument here.
Speaker 1 (06:25):
And if this is what you want to try and
sell America, you're more than welcome to try and sell
America this. But it won't connect with a single swing voter.
You cannot gain a vote, You can only lose votes
with this concept. So I don't know, just keep doing it,
But my gosh, lots of ways American citizens get abused
(06:47):
and kids. No commentary on that, only about they went
after the brown kid. You're kidding nobody. You only care
about black and brown kids when it's good for your politics.
Otherwise you don't care. And I believe your own actions,
(07:08):
and the actions of Representative cost of Cortes, and the
actions of the Democratic Party at large prove that. Anytime
you want to discuss it, Senator, I'm right here, happy
to do it.
