interfere with anything that has to do with serving the
United States.

What's need to be talking to you about a situation,
and that we made and recarry it out.
Speaker 1 (00:32):
Who paid for that trip for you to go to
that memorial service?
Speaker 2 (00:36):
Well, that those resources are resources that I have, and
therefore they are in a way that does not interfere
with anything that has to do with serving the United States.
Speaker 3 (00:50):
Congress understood, So public funds.
Speaker 2 (00:53):
Or those resources or resources that I have.
Speaker 4 (00:56):
What's need to be talking to you about a situation,
and then we may and we carve it out.
Speaker 1 (01:03):
Who paid for that trip for you to go to
that memorial service?
Speaker 2 (01:08):
Well, that those resources are resources that I have, and
therefore they are in a way that does not interfere

Speaker 3 (01:22):
Congress understood, So public funds or.
Speaker 2 (01:25):
Those resources are resources that I have.
Speaker 4 (01:28):
What's need to be talking to you about a situation?
That we may and we care of it out.
Speaker 5 (01:38):
We're talking about people who end up in very important
public positions who are stupid and criminal. Now the exception
of that is Rodney Ellis. Rodney Ellis is extremelyly smart,
(02:02):
head and shoulders above any of the others. But most
of what we're dealing with here's people of limited mental
capacity who you wouldn't hire to work at your company. First,
they'd be toxic personalities. Second they're lazy, and third they're
(02:24):
not very smart. These are people that could not get
hired in companies and advance in companies, even with the
added advantage of being able to check the correct box.
But they move over into the political realm and they have.
Speaker 6 (02:42):
Had run of it. I mean they have had situation
after situation.
Speaker 4 (02:48):
What's need to be talking to you about a situation
that we may and we carry it out.
Speaker 6 (02:56):
Some of them have had acquisition after acquisition.
Speaker 5 (03:00):
Been witch Hunt, a female career criminal who was arrested
last year for practicing dentistry without a license.
Speaker 6 (03:09):
Keeps picking up new charges.
Speaker 5 (03:11):
Now free on seven felony bonds here in Harris County alone,
as Randy Wallace reports, no matter how many criminal charges
of probation violations. Wanetta Solomon seems to remain free thanks
to two hundred and thirty second Criminal District Court Judge
Josh Hill, Fox twenty sixth with the story.
Speaker 7 (03:31):
Most people will consider one Netta Solomon a habitual offender.
Speaker 8 (03:35):
I'd give her more than that. She's NonStop.
Speaker 3 (03:39):
She's been to prison many times, been.
Speaker 8 (03:41):
A prisoner at least four times in three different counties
from twenty fifteen all the way to twenty and seventeen.
Speaker 7 (03:49):
Now she's free on seven felony bonds in Harris County.
Speaker 8 (03:53):
Aggravated assault multiple counts, Unlawfully carrying a weapon by a
convicted felon multiple counts, violating your probation conditions multiple times.
Speaker 7 (04:04):
No matter how many criminal charges or probation violations one,
that of Solomon seems to remain free thanks to two
hundred and thirty second Criminal dis Court Judge Josh Hill.
Last year, we told you how Solomon was charged with
practicing dentistry without a license. She's trying employed as a
teeth whitening specialist. According to court documents, she called herself
(04:26):
Nikki Callaway and had an office in this building. Due
to all the Harris County criminal charges, Galveson County reivoked
Solomon's probation and put her in jail for sixty days.
Speaker 8 (04:37):
Then last month, Randy She's charged with two more felonies
in Brazoria County.
Speaker 7 (04:46):
Still she remains on probation in Harris County and free
from jail on seven felony bonds.
Speaker 8 (04:52):
If I'm on probation and I'm watching this segment, I'm
going why am I paying my fees? Why am I
reporting to my probation officer? Why am I going to
these classes? Why am I doing what I'm supposed to
be doing? And she's not doing anything, and nothing happens
to her.
Speaker 5 (05:08):
And it continues, and it continues. This was exactly what
Rodney Ellis wanted. Criminals able to continue to apply their
trade to steal, to rob, to murder, to rape and
not be punished, and that is exactly where we are.
(05:29):
There was something called an O'Donnell consent Decree. This is
a little bit complicated, it's not as direct as most things,
but the way it worked was Harris County was sued
because there are a lot of black people that were
committing crimes and getting arrested, and if they didn't have
(05:50):
someone who would come down and pay their bond. They
would stay in jail for a couple of days till
their court hearing. And so I think it was a
setup where they sued Harris County and then Lena had
all go comes in as the Harris County judge, and
(06:13):
with Rodney Elysi's direction, they say to the federal government, well,
if you tell us we have to, I mean, don't
throw us in that briar patch. You know, I'm just
little o'breer rabbit over here. I don't want to go
(06:34):
in that briar patch. I won't be comfortable over that.
If you was to throw me in there, I don't
know what I do. And they get thrown into briar
patch and zippity DooDah all day and we're living through
the hell that they caused. So Attorney General Ken Paxton
(06:59):
is trying to undo this O'Donnell consent decree.
Speaker 6 (07:03):
See the idea is.
Speaker 5 (07:06):
It comes down from the federal government. But Harry's County
agreed to it because Harris County was really they were
not acting right. You know, you can't just be arresting
people and prosecuting them for committing crimes. If a lot
of them turn out to be black.
Speaker 6 (07:22):
Well, who chose that? So Harris County agrees, Yeah, you're right.
Speaker 5 (07:27):
We agree to your very stringent requirements. We didn't want
to know nothing, but we will because you know we've
done wrong before, the people before us. You know it's
not really our fault, but but we agree with you.
We should put ourselves in a real bad way and
(07:48):
not be able to put We consent to your decree, to.
Speaker 6 (07:54):
Your order, and we'll keep letting the bad guys out.
We'll agree to.
Speaker 5 (07:58):
Well, keim passion is going after that night, and it
looks so the O'Donnell consent decree. The case was style
O'Donnell at All versus Harris County at All. It was
filed in twenty sixteen. The suit alleged or challenged Harris
(08:19):
County's pre trial bail practices as unconstitutional, alleging they caused
a quote wealth based detention system where indigent, low income
misdemeanor defendants were detained solely because they could not afford
to pay bail, while wealthier individuals were released. This violated
(08:41):
the Fourteenth Amendment's equal Protection clause and due process clause.
Speaker 6 (08:46):
That was the claim.
Speaker 5 (08:48):
The case centered on lead plaintiff Miranda O'Donnell, who was
arrested for driving with a suspended license and held in
jail because she couldn't pay a twenty five hundred dollars
bail bond. Law suit represented thousands of similarly situated misdemeanor
arrestees in Harris County, Texas, which of course is home
to Houston and the third largest jail system in the
(09:10):
United States. The lawsuit was filed in twenty sixteen by
a civil rights group including Texas Rio, Grand Legal Aid
and the ACLU of Texas. Twenty seventeen, the court issued
a preliminary injunction finding Harris County's bail system likely unconstitutional.
It ordered prompt release on personal bonds for most misdemeanor
(09:33):
arrestees and guaranteed bail hearings within forty eight hours for
those not released. July of twenty nineteen, I should point
out that in the middle of all this, Lena Hidalgo.
Speaker 6 (09:46):
Is elected in let's see, we're in to be twenty yeah,
twenty eighteen, that's right.
Speaker 5 (09:54):
July of twenty nineteen, the parties plaintiffs and the Harris
count officials negotiated and submitted a proposed settlement and consent
degree to the court. Harris County Commissioner's Court approved it
by majority vote. The problem is that by this time
(10:15):
you had Harris County elected officials who were basically the
plaintiffs as well. They agreed with that position. And now
that they had the County Judge's office, and they had
three out of the five because remember Ramsey and Cagle
were against this nonsense, but at that point you had
Adrian Garcia, Rodney Ellis, and the new County Judge Lena
(10:37):
had Algo. So in a three to two vote, they go, well,
I guess we'll agree to this. To this, you know
what you're making us do. October November twenty nineteen, after
the hearings revisions objections from the groups like Harris County
District Attorney, the police unions, and bondsmen who who argued
(11:01):
it undermined public safety and judicial discretion and.
Speaker 6 (11:04):
Cost them a lot of money. Let's be honest.
Speaker 5 (11:07):
US District Judge l Lee h Rosenthal approved the decree
on November twenty ninth November twenty first, twenty nineteen. Starting
in twenty twenty, implementation was overseen by a court appointed
monitor team including experts from Duke University and the University
of Houston Law Center for at least seven years. That
(11:28):
team is designed to ensure compliance and aim to make
Harris County a national model for excellence in pre trial justice. Well,
it has been nothing of the sort. It has caused
absolute mayhem on the streets of Houston and Harris County.
Speaker 6 (11:50):
It has been a complete disaster for the victims.
Speaker 5 (11:53):
And we have seen bad guys get out again and
again and again. Not to mention that Harris County agreed
to pay nearly four million dollars to PLANTUS attorneys who
brought this case and again. Rodney Ellis is very smart.
Rodney Ellis is very connected to planous attorneys, and I'll
(12:16):
bet you he's connected to this particular Plainiffs attorney. Occasionally
I'll have someone in me an email and say, hey,
Rodney Ellis is over here on I tendant Baytown. Just
walked into the room with Wayne Rio and several of
(12:39):
these you know, mass tort lawyers. And what is he
as a Harris County commissioner, what is he doing here? Well,
I can assure you he's doing something that is going
to make him a lot of money. While only a
state senator. Over all these years salary seventy two hundred dollars,
he managed to get fabulous rich. And one has to
(13:02):
wonder why. Well, when I was talking earlier about the
self dealing, one of the things that happens in all
this is there are massive contracts that are given out
by the city, the county, Houston, Community College, Metro. There
are various levels of government, so they get all their
(13:25):
people entrenched in these organizations. So when Rodney Ellis was
a state official, a state senator, he might not could
do a deal with the state, but he would get
people in on deals with the state, like say, oh,
I don't know, maybe somebody in the Houston Mayor's office,
and then they turn around and give him a deal
(13:48):
with the City of Houston. So you'll see these elected
officials who they work at the county. But great example,
Rodney ellis Is chief of staff, was arrested for taking
bribes while she was president of hisd's board. She's the
(14:10):
president of the school board and also the chief of
Stafford County Commissioner. When she's arrested, it was for taking
bribes while on the school board, but by this time
she had moved over to the Houston Community College where
she was a trustee. She is just amazingly committed to
(14:32):
public service. Isn't it incredible? You see these people, they
get planted by a Rodney Ellis type person and they
put them in other levels of government, so that each
of the levels of government is actually just part of
a network of people that are dealing self dealing with
(14:54):
each other. And they will make alliances with outside parties,
some of whom are famous in Houston. You would recognize
the names. They would make alliances with outside parties, say
a car dealer that keeps a high prominent you know
name in the Democrat Party, and or an engineering firm,
(15:15):
and then when they need to get somebody elected to
another office, that engineering firm will help that.
Speaker 6 (15:20):
And they keep this network. Is this web of corruption,
and that is how it works.
Speaker 5 (15:28):
That should have been in God the front cover above
the fold of every nation across the globe. After the
Middle East Peace Plan was signed, a situation was made.
Speaker 6 (15:47):
What did they say? What need do I have? What
is an opening line?
Speaker 4 (15:51):
What's the need to be talking to you? The situation
that we made and we carry it out.
Speaker 5 (15:59):
What's the need me talking to you about a situation
we made and we carried out.
Speaker 4 (16:05):
What's the need of me talking to you about a
situation that we made and we carry it out.
Speaker 5 (16:13):
I like the tone that suggests not having seen it,
only having heard it a little sassy. I get the
impression he kind of popped his head a little when
he said it, right, what's the need of me talking
to you by the situation we made and carried out.
Speaker 4 (16:30):
What's the need of me talking to you about a
situation and that we made and we carry it out.
Speaker 5 (16:39):
Y'all keep bothering me about the car. I don't have
a car. We're not rich like y'all. Karen Wrights, I
hope you are in the mood for spirited debate. The
crosswalks are not the heel I want to die on
for the following reason.
Speaker 6 (16:57):
If you just tuned into the.
Speaker 5 (16:59):
Show, there is this story about the crosswalk in Montrose
that is a rainbow flag. They've painted the road just
as in New York they put a big black Lives Matter,
so they've painted the road with a rainbow flag. And
Greg Abbott ever saw when Greg Abbott says, I don't
(17:21):
you know, Desansus is doing all sorts of stuff and
I haven't really done any of that.
Speaker 6 (17:25):
I better, I better do something. What could I do?
Speaker 5 (17:30):
Well? They have a rainbow flag in Houston. We'll write
a letter for you that says, if you don't remove
the rainbow from the middle of the intersection, then we
will with whole text dot funds from you.
Speaker 6 (17:46):
Oh and I'll look tough. Yes, you'll look tough.
Speaker 5 (17:52):
Everybody will think I'm like Trump, Yes, just like Trump.
Speaker 6 (17:58):
Okay, then let's do that. That for sure. Tell me
when people start thinking I'm tough. Let me let me
know when. How when it all.
Speaker 5 (18:05):
Hits So they're going to remove the flag from the
middle of the concrete. Now is it the most important
thing in the world, Not one bit in the grand
scheme of things. Really doesn't matter. I feel certain that
the people in the neighborhood don't have a problem with
the rainbow flag in the middle of the concrete or
(18:28):
whatever else they want to put there. That is not
the point of this message. However, let me continue. The
crosswalks aren't the hill I want to die on for
the following reason. We don't want to erase Columbus or
Thomas Jefferson or Robert E.
Speaker 8 (18:49):
Lee.
Speaker 5 (18:51):
They are They have taken our shrines and are afraid
of the conversion. The crosswalk is their shrine. We aren't
afraid of the conversion. I know they have a million
other shrines, but they feel erased, and if we do that,
(19:13):
it's hard to argue for our own history not being erased.
I understand why it is happening. I just wonder if
strategically it's how we want to win the culture. Hearts
and minds are changing, the fading symbols will speak for themselves.
And no, I haven't crossed over, no pun intended, Karen.
(19:40):
I don't find anything bothersome about what you say, Karen.
I think you make your point in a very respectful manner.
I think it's very logical, and I suppose there is
some merit to the argument. Is that we don't engage
in the tactics in which they engage, and so that's
(20:02):
why we appear to be morally superior, and we.
Speaker 6 (20:06):
Give people a.
Speaker 5 (20:10):
Harbor in the storm of life that the Democrats liberals,
cause we are stable. We don't engage in the nonsense
that they do. I grasp that logic a great deal. However,
(20:32):
here is my problem with it. We don't want to
Erase Columbus or Thomas Jefferson or robberty Lee. They have
taken our shrides and are afraid of the conversion. I'm
not sure what the conversion is. I don't know if
that's meant to be a conversation. I'm not sure what
that means. I don't know what the conversion is. The
crosswalk is their shride. We aren't afraid of the conversion, right,
(20:58):
so I guess we go back to this. This speaks
to all of the prosecutions going on now and a
number of other things that are happening right now. There
was a detent in this country.
Speaker 6 (21:11):
There was a.
Speaker 5 (21:14):
Patromona, there was a there was a peaceful coexistence among
people with differences of political opinion, and.
Speaker 6 (21:23):
Of course there was How weird would it be if
there wasn't.
Speaker 5 (21:28):
We're not a tribal people. There are countries where the
people cannot live amongst themselves because their entire focus is
destroying each other. Those are also countries incapable of running
electricity and indoor toilets. They're savages that no better than dogs,
(21:50):
just living meal to meal and and and growling at
whoever gets closest to their food. They live in constant fear,
in aggression, incapable of higher level thinking, incapable of developing
a society of comfort and convenience and wealth and artistic
(22:13):
endeavors and happiness and love. They just can't and they
can't see themselves out of it. All that is true,
and that was how we lived in this country. Politics
was not particularly important except for people to whom it
was already important, in the same way that football is
not particularly important to people unless you're a person who
(22:34):
cares about football, or for that matter, soccer or baseball
or basketball, or archery or fencing. If you're into it,
you're into it or chess, and for everybody else, okay, whatever.
And that's pretty much what politics in this country was.
And then we had a moment where the left became infiltrated.
(22:58):
And I don't think they's aw it coming, but once
this beast started growing. When it started, it was a
marginal fringe, and they said, oh, there's an opportunity. There's
some foot soldiers, there's some young aocs that can get
out there on the streets for us. There's some young battlers,
(23:19):
there's some young recruiters. They can go out and recruit
young voters for us. They can provide the muscle we
need to be able to. You know, you're not gonna
have Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer at your protest on
their walkers. You're not going to have Jerry Nadler. You
know that little fellow guy's got his breeches all the
way up to his nipples, and you know he's kind
(23:42):
of waddling along. So the party needed some muscle. So
they brought in this young, aggressive group of very far
left socialists and they took the party over. And we
bothered nobody, and they did.
Speaker 6 (23:57):
Take down our shrines.
Speaker 5 (23:59):
And now we have a dec do we say, well,
we're not going to do what they did, We're going
to be better, or do we show them the consequences
of their actions the Michael Berry's Show.
Speaker 6 (24:09):
Tim you are on the Michael Berry Show. What's say you, sir?
Speaker 9 (24:13):
Michael? Real quick about your last segment. If we were
to put stars of our crosswalk, they'd lose their mind.
If we were to rename Robert Lee e Lee High School,
they would lose her mind to get violent. But with
that said, the reason I called you're talking about government
corruption in nineteen ninety I feel comfortable about talking to
Jesus now about this. Now, Port ben County was going
(24:33):
to put in a landfill. So I was really good
friends with the JP who has since passed. I was
doing handyman work at his house and he came to
me after grooming me, taking me to bars and out
to eat all this good stuff, and said, hey, there's
some property I want you to buy. And I feel like, well,
I don't have the money for that. He said, no,
I'm going to buy it. I just need to put
(24:54):
it in your name. And I'm like, what do you mean?
What if he told me? You said, you know, he's
friends with the land commissioner and they know where they
want to put this landfill, and he can buy the
property for you know, one thousand dollars an acre or less,
and then a few months later they turn around and
sell the property back to the county for twenty times
(25:15):
thirty times more than what they more than what he
negotiated with somebody else. Because I didn't want to get
involved in it, but it's it's crazy. They're almost like pedophiles.
They groom you, they take you, they whine you, dine you.
He offered, you know, I had a small charging company
at the time. He said, Hey, you know, if we
do this, then we'll move on. We can get you
to do work at the schools, We get you to
do work at the you know, the county barns. We
(25:37):
can get you all this other work. And it's just
it's just never ending. And now I'm in the private sector,
and I even see in the private sector, I have
contractors I worked with you, and I've talked before. I
worked for a very large Chicken company, and I have
contractors that want to get kickbacks. They expect us to
take kickbacks, and I deal with tens of millions of
dollars every year. But I just thought, now that you
(25:59):
know he is passing, did you say Chicken.
Speaker 6 (26:02):
Or Chicken Chicken? What do you do for the Chicken company?
Speaker 9 (26:08):
I'm an area leader facilities for a very large Chicken company,
which the owner that you interviewed during COVID. So you
and I have talked about this before.
Speaker 6 (26:17):
Okay, hold on, what is your title? Say what is
your title?
Speaker 9 (26:23):
I'm the area leader facilities. I make sure that the
buildings stayed running. Matter of fact, I'm in Houston today
looking at some of our sites. Make sure they stay
pretty and Christine to our core values. So they all
look the same and everybody has a great Figer meal.
Speaker 5 (26:41):
There's been a lot of criticism from people who, frankly
I think are vegans and that's.
Speaker 6 (26:46):
What drives this.
Speaker 5 (26:46):
But they have criticized, for instance, Tyson and their farming
uh and production facilities, and that the chickens are too
close together in these sorts of things. Is that something
that has made life more difficult for y'all?
Speaker 9 (27:04):
No, Now, we've uh, we've we've We've grown exponentially in
the last ten years. I've been been there ten years.
It's not a proper for us. We're one of the
we're probably the largest chicken one of the largest chicken
players in the business.
Speaker 8 (27:16):
Now.
Speaker 5 (27:17):
So so your facility, So tell me about the process
of the chickens life and how that works.
Speaker 6 (27:25):
I'm interested.
Speaker 9 (27:27):
I don't deal I don't deal with the with the
the operation side. I deal with strictly the building. I
make sure the lights stay on, the building stays pretty,
stays painted, the remodels things things, the equipment stays running.
There's all the deal with all the government agencies and
permitting and stuff like that.
Speaker 6 (27:44):
Do you ever go in there to see the chickens.
Speaker 9 (27:48):
The love of chickens. Yeah no, no, but I do
live in these Texas with the chicken farms, so yeah,
there's a yeah, there's something. There might be something to
be said about how the transports.
Speaker 5 (27:59):
Which doesn't bother me. I just enjoy eating them. I
was just curious how it how it affects you.
Speaker 6 (28:04):
Do you eat a lot of chicken.
Speaker 9 (28:06):
I know that as much as I.
Speaker 6 (28:07):
Used to because of this process, because of what.
Speaker 9 (28:11):
Because I'm in I'm around it every day.
Speaker 5 (28:13):
Yeah, you know that's weird because I never crave fish
so much as.
Speaker 6 (28:18):
When I go near the water.
Speaker 5 (28:20):
When I get near the water, I start craving fish.
Speaker 9 (28:23):
It's a funny story that you're talking about the shrimp.
The other day. I owned it, actually owned a fifty
foot double rigs shrimp boat, and I ran out of
past Christian and Mississippi. And what you said was exactly true.
The import shrimp is just ridiculous. It's it's right. It's ruined.
It's ruining an industry, without a doubt.
Speaker 5 (28:39):
You didn't buy that boat off all that kickback money
you got from the JP, did you?
Speaker 9 (28:44):
No? No, I turned down the JP, and like I said,
he was a very well known person in for Bank County,
so he since passed, but we were we were good friends.
I just didn't want to get to be associated with that.
And I ended up going to work for Fortman County
Law Enforcement, so after that we kind of yeah. I
(29:05):
didn't talk about things like that anymore at all.
Speaker 6 (29:08):
Were you an officer?
Speaker 9 (29:10):
I was deputy?
Speaker 6 (29:10):
Yes, how'd you enjoy that?
Speaker 9 (29:13):
I love it? I love it. But Differ says, I
make a lot more money making sure Chicken Play stays
open than I did police.
Speaker 3 (29:19):
And how many years?
Speaker 9 (29:20):
Really shame that? I need you, Michael, I need your
help on how many years? Twelve years? I need your
help on this. I'm sixty one years old. I went
to Harris County to beget a reserve deputy. Okay, I
passed the physical fitness test. I'm very healthy. I have
over two thousand hours. I meant, I kept up with
all my mandated courses, all right. But Tiko decided, say
(29:41):
I've been out ten years, that I had to go
back to a basic peace officer academy, which would have
took me from an intermediate straight to a master piece
officer license. And I was actually talking to Senator Whipmeyer
at the time. Now it's you know, Mary Whitmyer, and
we had some movement on it and then just went nowhere.
But there's a lot of guys like me that want
to go back in law enforce as a reserve officer,
(30:02):
our deputy, that they just make it too cumbersome for
us to join to join back in the forest.
Speaker 5 (30:10):
That's not accidental. It's the same reason that there are
people that would be happy to go and teach in
our schools and they make it so difficult. And what
they do you probably know this already. I'm sure you're
only a pretty smart fellow. The reason they're going to
make it difficult for you to go back and be
(30:32):
a deputy, reserve deputy, it's not because you lack firearm training.
It's not because you lack the physical fitness. It's not
because you lack the aptitude. It's because they want to
reprogram you. Because policing today is not what it once was.
Because if you think that a bad guy can be
(30:54):
dealt with like a bad guy, those are outdated modes
of thinking and we don't want that around here. And
sometimes people will hide their bad opinions or their bad
policies behind. Listen, that's not what I would like to do,
but we don't want.
Speaker 6 (31:12):
To get sued.
Speaker 5 (31:14):
There are a lot of answers to why people do
stupid things that I have heard over the years that
relate to, well, we don't want to get sued.
Speaker 6 (31:32):
What if what if someone said to you, same guy,
you can no longer be married to.
Speaker 5 (31:41):
Your wife and a parent to your children, and if
you try to do that, I'm going to sue you.
If you would say sue me, I care about this.
There are things I'm willing.
Speaker 6 (31:53):
To fight for.
Speaker 5 (31:54):
And that's really what that comes down to. And this
is how we've ended up with a situation where you've
got people calling themselves protesters who are rioted, rioters and
terrorists spitting in the faces of officers. Kent State was
one of the greatest setbacks in this country because after that,
there is this constant fear that if police respond when provoked,
(32:15):
it will go negative. It was the same thing with
the shutdown, and Trump proved that wasn't true.
Speaker 6 (32:19):
These people should be clubbed.
Speaker 5 (32:21):
When you spit on an officer, hit an officer, throw
things at an officer, they should be clubbed into submission.
Speaker 6 (32:28):
And then and then jail and prosecute you have.
Speaker 5 (32:31):
You can't beat a cost An officer any more than
you can a person on the street.
Who paid for that trip for you to go to
that memorial service?
Speaker 2 (00:04):
Well, uh, that those resources are resources that I have,
and therefore they are in a way that does not
interfere with anything that has to do with serving the
United States.
Speaker 3 (00:18):
Congress understood, So public funds.
Speaker 2 (00:21):
Or those resources or resources that I have.
Speaker 4 (00:24):
What's need to be talking to you about a situation,
and that we made and recarry it out.
Speaker 1 (00:32):
Who paid for that trip for you to go to
that memorial service?
Speaker 2 (00:36):
Well, that those resources are resources that I have, and
therefore they are in a way that does not interfere
with anything that has to do with serving the United States.
Speaker 3 (00:50):
Congress understood, So public funds.
Speaker 2 (00:53):
Or those resources or resources that I have.
Speaker 4 (00:56):
What's need to be talking to you about a situation,
and then we may and we carve it out.
Speaker 1 (01:03):
Who paid for that trip for you to go to
that memorial service?
Speaker 2 (01:08):
Well, that those resources are resources that I have, and
therefore they are in a way that does not interfere
with anything that has to do with serving the United States.
Speaker 3 (01:22):
Congress understood, So public funds or.
Speaker 2 (01:25):
Those resources are resources that I have.
Speaker 4 (01:28):
What's need to be talking to you about a situation?
That we may and we care of it out.
Speaker 5 (01:38):
We're talking about people who end up in very important
public positions who are stupid and criminal. Now the exception
of that is Rodney Ellis. Rodney Ellis is extremelyly smart,
(02:02):
head and shoulders above any of the others. But most
of what we're dealing with here's people of limited mental
capacity who you wouldn't hire to work at your company. First,
they'd be toxic personalities. Second they're lazy, and third they're
(02:24):
not very smart. These are people that could not get
hired in companies and advance in companies, even with the
added advantage of being able to check the correct box.
But they move over into the political realm and they have.
Speaker 6 (02:42):
Had run of it. I mean they have had situation
after situation.
Speaker 4 (02:48):
What's need to be talking to you about a situation
that we may and we carry it out.
Speaker 6 (02:56):
Some of them have had acquisition after acquisition.
Speaker 5 (03:00):
Been witch Hunt, a female career criminal who was arrested
last year for practicing dentistry without a license.
Speaker 6 (03:09):
Keeps picking up new charges.
Speaker 5 (03:11):
Now free on seven felony bonds here in Harris County alone,
as Randy Wallace reports, no matter how many criminal charges
of probation violations. Wanetta Solomon seems to remain free thanks
to two hundred and thirty second Criminal District Court Judge
Josh Hill, Fox twenty sixth with the story.
Speaker 7 (03:31):
Most people will consider one Netta Solomon a habitual offender.
Speaker 8 (03:35):
I'd give her more than that. She's NonStop.
Speaker 3 (03:39):
She's been to prison many times, been.
Speaker 8 (03:41):
A prisoner at least four times in three different counties
from twenty fifteen all the way to twenty and seventeen.
Speaker 7 (03:49):
Now she's free on seven felony bonds in Harris County.
Speaker 8 (03:53):
Aggravated assault multiple counts, Unlawfully carrying a weapon by a
convicted felon multiple counts, violating your probation conditions multiple times.
Speaker 7 (04:04):
No matter how many criminal charges or probation violations one,
that of Solomon seems to remain free thanks to two
hundred and thirty second Criminal dis Court Judge Josh Hill.
Last year, we told you how Solomon was charged with
practicing dentistry without a license. She's trying employed as a
teeth whitening specialist. According to court documents, she called herself
(04:26):
Nikki Callaway and had an office in this building. Due
to all the Harris County criminal charges, Galveson County reivoked
Solomon's probation and put her in jail for sixty days.
Speaker 8 (04:37):
Then last month, Randy She's charged with two more felonies
in Brazoria County.
Speaker 7 (04:46):
Still she remains on probation in Harris County and free
from jail on seven felony bonds.
Speaker 8 (04:52):
If I'm on probation and I'm watching this segment, I'm
going why am I paying my fees? Why am I
reporting to my probation officer? Why am I going to
these classes? Why am I doing what I'm supposed to
be doing? And she's not doing anything, and nothing happens
to her.
Speaker 5 (05:08):
And it continues, and it continues. This was exactly what
Rodney Ellis wanted. Criminals able to continue to apply their
trade to steal, to rob, to murder, to rape and
not be punished, and that is exactly where we are.
(05:29):
There was something called an O'Donnell consent Decree. This is
a little bit complicated, it's not as direct as most things,
but the way it worked was Harris County was sued
because there are a lot of black people that were
committing crimes and getting arrested, and if they didn't have
(05:50):
someone who would come down and pay their bond. They
would stay in jail for a couple of days till
their court hearing. And so I think it was a
setup where they sued Harris County and then Lena had
all go comes in as the Harris County judge, and
(06:13):
with Rodney Elysi's direction, they say to the federal government, well,
if you tell us we have to, I mean, don't
throw us in that briar patch. You know, I'm just
little o'breer rabbit over here. I don't want to go
(06:34):
in that briar patch. I won't be comfortable over that.
If you was to throw me in there, I don't
know what I do. And they get thrown into briar
patch and zippity DooDah all day and we're living through
the hell that they caused. So Attorney General Ken Paxton
(06:59):
is trying to undo this O'Donnell consent decree.
Speaker 6 (07:03):
See the idea is.
Speaker 5 (07:06):
It comes down from the federal government. But Harry's County
agreed to it because Harris County was really they were
not acting right. You know, you can't just be arresting
people and prosecuting them for committing crimes. If a lot
of them turn out to be black.
Speaker 6 (07:22):
Well, who chose that? So Harris County agrees, Yeah, you're right.
Speaker 5 (07:27):
We agree to your very stringent requirements. We didn't want
to know nothing, but we will because you know we've
done wrong before, the people before us. You know it's
not really our fault, but but we agree with you.
We should put ourselves in a real bad way and
(07:48):
not be able to put We consent to your decree, to.
Speaker 6 (07:54):
Your order, and we'll keep letting the bad guys out.
We'll agree to.
Speaker 5 (07:58):
Well, keim passion is going after that night, and it
looks so the O'Donnell consent decree. The case was style
O'Donnell at All versus Harris County at All. It was
filed in twenty sixteen. The suit alleged or challenged Harris
(08:19):
County's pre trial bail practices as unconstitutional, alleging they caused
a quote wealth based detention system where indigent, low income
misdemeanor defendants were detained solely because they could not afford
to pay bail, while wealthier individuals were released. This violated
(08:41):
the Fourteenth Amendment's equal Protection clause and due process clause.
Speaker 6 (08:46):
That was the claim.
Speaker 5 (08:48):
The case centered on lead plaintiff Miranda O'Donnell, who was
arrested for driving with a suspended license and held in
jail because she couldn't pay a twenty five hundred dollars
bail bond. Law suit represented thousands of similarly situated misdemeanor
arrestees in Harris County, Texas, which of course is home
to Houston and the third largest jail system in the
(09:10):
United States. The lawsuit was filed in twenty sixteen by
a civil rights group including Texas Rio, Grand Legal Aid
and the ACLU of Texas. Twenty seventeen, the court issued
a preliminary injunction finding Harris County's bail system likely unconstitutional.
It ordered prompt release on personal bonds for most misdemeanor
(09:33):
arrestees and guaranteed bail hearings within forty eight hours for
those not released. July of twenty nineteen, I should point
out that in the middle of all this, Lena Hidalgo.
Speaker 6 (09:46):
Is elected in let's see, we're in to be twenty yeah,
twenty eighteen, that's right.
Speaker 5 (09:54):
July of twenty nineteen, the parties plaintiffs and the Harris
count officials negotiated and submitted a proposed settlement and consent
degree to the court. Harris County Commissioner's Court approved it
by majority vote. The problem is that by this time
(10:15):
you had Harris County elected officials who were basically the
plaintiffs as well. They agreed with that position. And now
that they had the County Judge's office, and they had
three out of the five because remember Ramsey and Cagle
were against this nonsense, but at that point you had
Adrian Garcia, Rodney Ellis, and the new County Judge Lena
(10:37):
had Algo. So in a three to two vote, they go, well,
I guess we'll agree to this. To this, you know
what you're making us do. October November twenty nineteen, after
the hearings revisions objections from the groups like Harris County
District Attorney, the police unions, and bondsmen who who argued
(11:01):
it undermined public safety and judicial discretion and.
Speaker 6 (11:04):
Cost them a lot of money. Let's be honest.
Speaker 5 (11:07):
US District Judge l Lee h Rosenthal approved the decree
on November twenty ninth November twenty first, twenty nineteen. Starting
in twenty twenty, implementation was overseen by a court appointed
monitor team including experts from Duke University and the University
of Houston Law Center for at least seven years. That
(11:28):
team is designed to ensure compliance and aim to make
Harris County a national model for excellence in pre trial justice. Well,
it has been nothing of the sort. It has caused
absolute mayhem on the streets of Houston and Harris County.
Speaker 6 (11:50):
It has been a complete disaster for the victims.
Speaker 5 (11:53):
And we have seen bad guys get out again and
again and again. Not to mention that Harris County agreed
to pay nearly four million dollars to PLANTUS attorneys who
brought this case and again. Rodney Ellis is very smart.
Rodney Ellis is very connected to planous attorneys, and I'll
(12:16):
bet you he's connected to this particular Plainiffs attorney. Occasionally
I'll have someone in me an email and say, hey,
Rodney Ellis is over here on I tendant Baytown. Just
walked into the room with Wayne Rio and several of
(12:39):
these you know, mass tort lawyers. And what is he
as a Harris County commissioner, what is he doing here? Well,
I can assure you he's doing something that is going
to make him a lot of money. While only a
state senator. Over all these years salary seventy two hundred dollars,
he managed to get fabulous rich. And one has to
(13:02):
wonder why. Well, when I was talking earlier about the
self dealing, one of the things that happens in all
this is there are massive contracts that are given out
by the city, the county, Houston, Community College, Metro. There
are various levels of government, so they get all their
(13:25):
people entrenched in these organizations. So when Rodney Ellis was
a state official, a state senator, he might not could
do a deal with the state, but he would get
people in on deals with the state, like say, oh,
I don't know, maybe somebody in the Houston Mayor's office,
and then they turn around and give him a deal
(13:48):
with the City of Houston. So you'll see these elected
officials who they work at the county. But great example,
Rodney ellis Is chief of staff, was arrested for taking
bribes while she was president of hisd's board. She's the
(14:10):
president of the school board and also the chief of
Stafford County Commissioner. When she's arrested, it was for taking
bribes while on the school board, but by this time
she had moved over to the Houston Community College where
she was a trustee. She is just amazingly committed to
(14:32):
public service. Isn't it incredible? You see these people, they
get planted by a Rodney Ellis type person and they
put them in other levels of government, so that each
of the levels of government is actually just part of
a network of people that are dealing self dealing with
(14:54):
each other. And they will make alliances with outside parties,
some of whom are famous in Houston. You would recognize
the names. They would make alliances with outside parties, say
a car dealer that keeps a high prominent you know
name in the Democrat Party, and or an engineering firm,
(15:15):
and then when they need to get somebody elected to
another office, that engineering firm will help that.
Speaker 6 (15:20):
And they keep this network. Is this web of corruption,
and that is how it works.
Speaker 5 (15:28):
That should have been in God the front cover above
the fold of every nation across the globe. After the
Middle East Peace Plan was signed, a situation was made.
Speaker 6 (15:47):
What did they say? What need do I have? What
is an opening line?
Speaker 4 (15:51):
What's the need to be talking to you? The situation
that we made and we carry it out.
Speaker 5 (15:59):
What's the need me talking to you about a situation
we made and we carried out.
Speaker 4 (16:05):
What's the need of me talking to you about a
situation that we made and we carry it out.
Speaker 5 (16:13):
I like the tone that suggests not having seen it,
only having heard it a little sassy. I get the
impression he kind of popped his head a little when
he said it, right, what's the need of me talking
to you by the situation we made and carried out.
Speaker 4 (16:30):
What's the need of me talking to you about a
situation and that we made and we carry it out.
Speaker 5 (16:39):
Y'all keep bothering me about the car. I don't have
a car. We're not rich like y'all. Karen Wrights, I
hope you are in the mood for spirited debate. The
crosswalks are not the heel I want to die on
for the following reason.
Speaker 6 (16:57):
If you just tuned into the.
Speaker 5 (16:59):
Show, there is this story about the crosswalk in Montrose
that is a rainbow flag. They've painted the road just
as in New York they put a big black Lives Matter,
so they've painted the road with a rainbow flag. And
Greg Abbott ever saw when Greg Abbott says, I don't
(17:21):
you know, Desansus is doing all sorts of stuff and
I haven't really done any of that.
Speaker 6 (17:25):
I better, I better do something. What could I do?
Speaker 5 (17:30):
Well? They have a rainbow flag in Houston. We'll write
a letter for you that says, if you don't remove
the rainbow from the middle of the intersection, then we
will with whole text dot funds from you.
Speaker 6 (17:46):
Oh and I'll look tough. Yes, you'll look tough.
Speaker 5 (17:52):
Everybody will think I'm like Trump, Yes, just like Trump.
Speaker 6 (17:58):
Okay, then let's do that. That for sure. Tell me
when people start thinking I'm tough. Let me let me
know when. How when it all.
Speaker 5 (18:05):
Hits So they're going to remove the flag from the
middle of the concrete. Now is it the most important
thing in the world, Not one bit in the grand
scheme of things. Really doesn't matter. I feel certain that
the people in the neighborhood don't have a problem with
the rainbow flag in the middle of the concrete or
(18:28):
whatever else they want to put there. That is not
the point of this message. However, let me continue. The
crosswalks aren't the hill I want to die on for
the following reason. We don't want to erase Columbus or
Thomas Jefferson or Robert E.
Speaker 8 (18:49):
Lee.
Speaker 5 (18:51):
They are They have taken our shrines and are afraid
of the conversion. The crosswalk is their shrine. We aren't
afraid of the conversion. I know they have a million
other shrines, but they feel erased, and if we do that,
(19:13):
it's hard to argue for our own history not being erased.
I understand why it is happening. I just wonder if
strategically it's how we want to win the culture. Hearts
and minds are changing, the fading symbols will speak for themselves.
And no, I haven't crossed over, no pun intended, Karen.
(19:40):
I don't find anything bothersome about what you say, Karen.
I think you make your point in a very respectful manner.
I think it's very logical, and I suppose there is
some merit to the argument. Is that we don't engage
in the tactics in which they engage, and so that's
(20:02):
why we appear to be morally superior, and we.
Speaker 6 (20:06):
Give people a.
Speaker 5 (20:10):
Harbor in the storm of life that the Democrats liberals,
cause we are stable. We don't engage in the nonsense
that they do. I grasp that logic a great deal. However,
(20:32):
here is my problem with it. We don't want to
Erase Columbus or Thomas Jefferson or robberty Lee. They have
taken our shrides and are afraid of the conversion. I'm
not sure what the conversion is. I don't know if
that's meant to be a conversation. I'm not sure what
that means. I don't know what the conversion is. The
crosswalk is their shride. We aren't afraid of the conversion, right,
(20:58):
so I guess we go back to this. This speaks
to all of the prosecutions going on now and a
number of other things that are happening right now. There
was a detent in this country.
Speaker 6 (21:11):
There was a.
Speaker 5 (21:14):
Patromona, there was a there was a peaceful coexistence among
people with differences of political opinion, and.
Speaker 6 (21:23):
Of course there was How weird would it be if
there wasn't.
Speaker 5 (21:28):
We're not a tribal people. There are countries where the
people cannot live amongst themselves because their entire focus is
destroying each other. Those are also countries incapable of running
electricity and indoor toilets. They're savages that no better than dogs,
(21:50):
just living meal to meal and and and growling at
whoever gets closest to their food. They live in constant fear,
in aggression, incapable of higher level thinking, incapable of developing
a society of comfort and convenience and wealth and artistic
(22:13):
endeavors and happiness and love. They just can't and they
can't see themselves out of it. All that is true,
and that was how we lived in this country. Politics
was not particularly important except for people to whom it
was already important, in the same way that football is
not particularly important to people unless you're a person who
(22:34):
cares about football, or for that matter, soccer or baseball
or basketball, or archery or fencing. If you're into it,
you're into it or chess, and for everybody else, okay, whatever.
And that's pretty much what politics in this country was.
And then we had a moment where the left became infiltrated.
(22:58):
And I don't think they's aw it coming, but once
this beast started growing. When it started, it was a
marginal fringe, and they said, oh, there's an opportunity. There's
some foot soldiers, there's some young aocs that can get
out there on the streets for us. There's some young battlers,
(23:19):
there's some young recruiters. They can go out and recruit
young voters for us. They can provide the muscle we
need to be able to. You know, you're not gonna
have Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer at your protest on
their walkers. You're not going to have Jerry Nadler. You
know that little fellow guy's got his breeches all the
way up to his nipples, and you know he's kind
(23:42):
of waddling along. So the party needed some muscle. So
they brought in this young, aggressive group of very far
left socialists and they took the party over. And we
bothered nobody, and they did.
Speaker 6 (23:57):
Take down our shrines.
Speaker 5 (23:59):
And now we have a dec do we say, well,
we're not going to do what they did, We're going
to be better, or do we show them the consequences
of their actions the Michael Berry's Show.
Speaker 6 (24:09):
Tim you are on the Michael Berry Show. What's say you, sir?
Speaker 9 (24:13):
Michael? Real quick about your last segment. If we were
to put stars of our crosswalk, they'd lose their mind.
If we were to rename Robert Lee e Lee High School,
they would lose her mind to get violent. But with
that said, the reason I called you're talking about government
corruption in nineteen ninety I feel comfortable about talking to
Jesus now about this. Now, Port ben County was going
(24:33):
to put in a landfill. So I was really good
friends with the JP who has since passed. I was
doing handyman work at his house and he came to
me after grooming me, taking me to bars and out
to eat all this good stuff, and said, hey, there's
some property I want you to buy. And I feel like, well,
I don't have the money for that. He said, no,
I'm going to buy it. I just need to put
(24:54):
it in your name. And I'm like, what do you mean?
What if he told me? You said, you know, he's
friends with the land commissioner and they know where they
want to put this landfill, and he can buy the
property for you know, one thousand dollars an acre or less,
and then a few months later they turn around and
sell the property back to the county for twenty times
(25:15):
thirty times more than what they more than what he
negotiated with somebody else. Because I didn't want to get
involved in it, but it's it's crazy. They're almost like pedophiles.
They groom you, they take you, they whine you, dine you.
He offered, you know, I had a small charging company
at the time. He said, Hey, you know, if we
do this, then we'll move on. We can get you
to do work at the schools, We get you to
do work at the you know, the county barns. We
(25:37):
can get you all this other work. And it's just
it's just never ending. And now I'm in the private sector,
and I even see in the private sector, I have
contractors I worked with you, and I've talked before. I
worked for a very large Chicken company, and I have
contractors that want to get kickbacks. They expect us to
take kickbacks, and I deal with tens of millions of
dollars every year. But I just thought, now that you
(25:59):
know he is passing, did you say Chicken.
Speaker 6 (26:02):
Or Chicken Chicken? What do you do for the Chicken company?
Speaker 9 (26:08):
I'm an area leader facilities for a very large Chicken company,
which the owner that you interviewed during COVID. So you
and I have talked about this before.
Speaker 6 (26:17):
Okay, hold on, what is your title? Say what is
your title?
Speaker 9 (26:23):
I'm the area leader facilities. I make sure that the
buildings stayed running. Matter of fact, I'm in Houston today
looking at some of our sites. Make sure they stay
pretty and Christine to our core values. So they all
look the same and everybody has a great Figer meal.
Speaker 5 (26:41):
There's been a lot of criticism from people who, frankly
I think are vegans and that's.
Speaker 6 (26:46):
What drives this.
Speaker 5 (26:46):
But they have criticized, for instance, Tyson and their farming
uh and production facilities, and that the chickens are too
close together in these sorts of things. Is that something
that has made life more difficult for y'all?
Speaker 9 (27:04):
No, Now, we've uh, we've we've We've grown exponentially in
the last ten years. I've been been there ten years.
It's not a proper for us. We're one of the
we're probably the largest chicken one of the largest chicken
players in the business.
Speaker 8 (27:16):
Now.
Speaker 5 (27:17):
So so your facility, So tell me about the process
of the chickens life and how that works.
Speaker 6 (27:25):
I'm interested.
Speaker 9 (27:27):
I don't deal I don't deal with the with the
the operation side. I deal with strictly the building. I
make sure the lights stay on, the building stays pretty,
stays painted, the remodels things things, the equipment stays running.
There's all the deal with all the government agencies and
permitting and stuff like that.
Speaker 6 (27:44):
Do you ever go in there to see the chickens.
Speaker 9 (27:48):
The love of chickens. Yeah no, no, but I do
live in these Texas with the chicken farms, so yeah,
there's a yeah, there's something. There might be something to
be said about how the transports.
Speaker 5 (27:59):
Which doesn't bother me. I just enjoy eating them. I
was just curious how it how it affects you.
Speaker 6 (28:04):
Do you eat a lot of chicken.
Speaker 9 (28:06):
I know that as much as I.
Speaker 6 (28:07):
Used to because of this process, because of what.
Speaker 9 (28:11):
Because I'm in I'm around it every day.
Speaker 5 (28:13):
Yeah, you know that's weird because I never crave fish
so much as.
Speaker 6 (28:18):
When I go near the water.
Speaker 5 (28:20):
When I get near the water, I start craving fish.
Speaker 9 (28:23):
It's a funny story that you're talking about the shrimp.
The other day. I owned it, actually owned a fifty
foot double rigs shrimp boat, and I ran out of
past Christian and Mississippi. And what you said was exactly true.
The import shrimp is just ridiculous. It's it's right. It's ruined.
It's ruining an industry, without a doubt.
Speaker 5 (28:39):
You didn't buy that boat off all that kickback money
you got from the JP, did you?
Speaker 9 (28:44):
No? No, I turned down the JP, and like I said,
he was a very well known person in for Bank County,
so he since passed, but we were we were good friends.
I just didn't want to get to be associated with that.
And I ended up going to work for Fortman County
Law Enforcement, so after that we kind of yeah. I
(29:05):
didn't talk about things like that anymore at all.
Speaker 6 (29:08):
Were you an officer?
Speaker 9 (29:10):
I was deputy?
Speaker 6 (29:10):
Yes, how'd you enjoy that?
Speaker 9 (29:13):
I love it? I love it. But Differ says, I
make a lot more money making sure Chicken Play stays
open than I did police.
Speaker 3 (29:19):
And how many years?
Speaker 9 (29:20):
Really shame that? I need you, Michael, I need your
help on how many years? Twelve years? I need your
help on this. I'm sixty one years old. I went
to Harris County to beget a reserve deputy. Okay, I
passed the physical fitness test. I'm very healthy. I have
over two thousand hours. I meant, I kept up with
all my mandated courses, all right. But Tiko decided, say
(29:41):
I've been out ten years, that I had to go
back to a basic peace officer academy, which would have
took me from an intermediate straight to a master piece
officer license. And I was actually talking to Senator Whipmeyer
at the time. Now it's you know, Mary Whitmyer, and
we had some movement on it and then just went nowhere.
But there's a lot of guys like me that want
to go back in law enforce as a reserve officer,
(30:02):
our deputy, that they just make it too cumbersome for
us to join to join back in the forest.
Speaker 5 (30:10):
That's not accidental. It's the same reason that there are
people that would be happy to go and teach in
our schools and they make it so difficult. And what
they do you probably know this already. I'm sure you're
only a pretty smart fellow. The reason they're going to
make it difficult for you to go back and be
(30:32):
a deputy, reserve deputy, it's not because you lack firearm training.
It's not because you lack the physical fitness. It's not
because you lack the aptitude. It's because they want to
reprogram you. Because policing today is not what it once was.
Because if you think that a bad guy can be
(30:54):
dealt with like a bad guy, those are outdated modes
of thinking and we don't want that around here. And
sometimes people will hide their bad opinions or their bad
policies behind. Listen, that's not what I would like to do,
but we don't want.
Speaker 6 (31:12):
To get sued.
Speaker 5 (31:14):
There are a lot of answers to why people do
stupid things that I have heard over the years that
relate to, well, we don't want to get sued.
Speaker 6 (31:32):
What if what if someone said to you, same guy,
you can no longer be married to.
Speaker 5 (31:41):
Your wife and a parent to your children, and if
you try to do that, I'm going to sue you.
If you would say sue me, I care about this.
There are things I'm willing.
Speaker 6 (31:53):
To fight for.
Speaker 5 (31:54):
And that's really what that comes down to. And this
is how we've ended up with a situation where you've
got people calling themselves protesters who are rioted, rioters and
terrorists spitting in the faces of officers. Kent State was
one of the greatest setbacks in this country because after that,
there is this constant fear that if police respond when provoked,
(32:15):
it will go negative. It was the same thing with
the shutdown, and Trump proved that wasn't true.
Speaker 6 (32:19):
These people should be clubbed.
Speaker 5 (32:21):
When you spit on an officer, hit an officer, throw
things at an officer, they should be clubbed into submission.
Speaker 6 (32:28):
And then and then jail and prosecute you have.
Speaker 5 (32:31):
You can't beat a cost An officer any more than
you can a person on the street.
