Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:05):
Col steals Gattle's weight, just discussing me as a fate
manse shadows secret line, Doctor currys the Americas Quminologist, common
seals of law in the alasy Males, a crime frekin change,

(00:31):
brust the frame, and here's America's criminologist, doctor Curry Myers.

Speaker 2 (00:43):
Thank you, mister princer. Appreciate it. Kids. How you doing today?
This is doctor Curry Myers that are known as America's criminologist.
You know in my book they had been a feral man.
I discussed the wild being of humans and the changes
in the criminal archetype that has occurred in the last
decade or so. For my years on the job as
a state trooper special agent and then a sheriff of

(01:05):
a major county in America, I understand cause and effect firsthand,
and as an applied criminologist, I put all those things
together for the public to be able to see what
is really going on in America today. So feel free
to view my substack at doctor Currymeyers dot substack dot
com to read all my published works and see my

(01:26):
stream radio shows and my interviews that are done podcasts
and hey, it is streaming on all your favorite platforms.
My friends, do you like beef?

Speaker 3 (01:37):
Oh?

Speaker 2 (01:37):
Man, I love beef, of course you do. We are
all Americans, and Americans love beef. But have you tried
Howard Wagoo beef. Howard Wago beef is all pasture raised
in the grasslands of Kansas, with proven genetics and never
contains added hormones. Howard Wago keeps it pure, no chemical

(01:59):
preservatives that it is or artificial coloring. It's the same
high quality beef we serve our own family. In fact,
they're in my family. Pure, honest and delicious beef you
can trust in. Oh, it's so good you can cut
it with a fork. And hey, do you want natural
lotions as well for your body and face? Well they

(02:19):
have Howard Wagou Tallow lotion. This stuff is remarkable. It's
flying off the shelves. Give it a shot. You want
natural lotions on your body and face right, well, then
try Howard Wagoo Tallow lotions. It doesn't matter where you live.
They can drop ship stuff to you all over the country,
so don't fret. Just look up Howard Wagoo Beef and

(02:43):
they'll send you some of that stuff. So let's get
right to it. Mister producer, how you doing today? Let's
play cut one please.

Speaker 4 (02:51):
Well, we are getting word now that Kilmar Abrigo Garcia
has been released from prison.

Speaker 5 (02:56):
Let's go right away to Madison Scarpino.

Speaker 3 (02:58):
She's in Atlanta with all the details.

Speaker 4 (03:00):
What can you tell us, Madison?

Speaker 6 (03:01):
Hello, Jillian, Well, this is the first taste of freedom
that Abrigo Garcia is getting after months of legal battles.
He's been in jail in Tennessee for about eleven weeks
since his return to the US from El Salvador, and
we're still waiting on an order from a judge. But
according to our local affiliate in Nashville, his attorney says, quote,

(03:22):
today Kilmar Abrigo Garcia is free. He is presently en
route to his family in Maryland after being unlawfully arrested
and deported and then in prisons, all because of the
government's vindictive attack on a man who had the courage
to fight back against the administrations continuing assault on the
rule of law. He is grateful that is access to
American courts has provided meaningful due process unquote. So we

(03:47):
know that a private security firm is in charge of
taking him home, but his freedom may be short lived.
As far as when he will be detained by Ice,
which is what we're expecting, it's unclear, but the Department
of Homeland Security has previously said that he will quote
never walk American streets again. So a lot of questions
remain as to a Brago Garcia's future. We also know

(04:09):
that his attorneys are requesting for his criminal charges in
Tennessee to be dropped altogether this week. They're saying that
the indictment handed down by the Trump administration for human
smuggling charges is they say, vindictive and selective prosecution. We
know that as soon as he returned to America, he
was slapped with human smuggling charges stemming from a twenty

(04:32):
twenty two traffic stop. He's been alleged to be an
MS thirteen gang member, all of which a Breago Garcia
denies and where all of the majority of these legal
battles stem from. So again, he is on his way
back to Maryland according to his attorney.

Speaker 7 (04:46):
But as far as when or.

Speaker 6 (04:48):
If he will be deported and all of the other
details regarding his human smuggling case, still a lot of
questions remain.

Speaker 8 (04:54):
Jillian all right, Madison, keep us up to speed on that.

Speaker 2 (05:00):
Oh my goodness, folks, this case has more smoke than
a fourth of July fireworks show. The decision to release
of Brigo Garcia has turned more than a few heads.
And it's not just about the release itself. What's really
lighting up the switchboard across America is the person behind
the gavel, Judge Holmes. Now you know me. I've spent

(05:22):
decades in law enforcement, and I've seen judges come under
pressure before. But this one's different. This release isn't happening
in a vacuum. It's raised a whole lot of questions
about Judge Holmes's background, past affiliations, and whether decisions are
guided by blind justice or by something else entirely. Perhaps

(05:44):
politics maybe plays a role. This is where the public
trust gets tested. We expect judges to be in partial referees,
calling balls and strikes based on the law, not personal connections,
not political leadings, not affiliations that make headlines instead of

(06:05):
making sense. But when a decision like this hits the streets,
when someone like Abrigo Garcia, with this kind of record
he has, is cut loose, it makes you wonder if
the scales of justice aren't just tipped, but quite frankly
knocked off the friggin table. And here's the bigger picture.

(06:28):
When judges lose credibility, the whole system takes a hit.
Law enforcement officers risk their lives to bring dangerous people
in day in and day out. Prosecutors often put the
case together and then boom, a decision comes down that
undermines all that work, all that time, all that effort,

(06:51):
all that money. The community ends up asking the same
question over and over again, what really are the interests
being served here? So buckle up because over the next
hour we're just not going to talk about this case.
We're going to talk about all these kind of cases

(07:13):
that intersect together. The affiliations are now under the microscope,
and what all this means for the integrity of the
United States justice system In the courts today, many can't
be trusted to protect the public. If that's the case,

(07:33):
then we're in deeper trouble than we realize. Mister producer
plate cut to please.

Speaker 9 (07:52):
There was no need for them to take him into
ice attention. He was already on electronic monitoring from the
US Martiall Service.

Speaker 3 (07:57):
And basically on house arrested.

Speaker 9 (08:00):
The only reason that they've chosen to take him into
detention is to punish him for what, to punish him
for exercising his constitutional rights. His constitutional right to fight
back against being illegally deported to El Salvador. His constitutional
right to speak up through his court filings on the
torture and treatment that he received in El Salvador at

(08:21):
the direct request of our government. His constitutional right not
to allow his arm to be twisted to take a
guilty plea if he doesn't want to, his constitutional right
to exercise his right to a jury trial on his
criminal proceedings if he so chooses, and his constitutional right
and his right under the Bail Reform Act to leave
the prison and come home to his family. He's being

(08:42):
punished for exercising those rights. We asked the ice officer
what the reason for his attention was. The ice officer
didn't answer. The ice officer stated that he'll be taken
to a detention center. We ask the ice officer which
detention center. The ice officer said that they weren't able
to say. We asked the ice officer for a copy

(09:03):
of any paperwork that's being served on him today.

Speaker 4 (09:05):
The ice officer wouldn't.

Speaker 3 (09:06):
Commit to it.

Speaker 9 (09:06):
Even given us that paperwork. In the last five minutes,
mister Breakovarcia has filed a new lawsuit in the Federal
District Court for the District of Maryland, challenging his current
confinement and challenging deportation to Uganda or to any other

(09:31):
country unlesson until he's had a fair trial in an
immigration court, as well as his full appeal rights.

Speaker 2 (09:42):
Electronic monitoring. He mentioned electronic monitoring. How well does that work?
I mean, there's people with electronic ankle bracelets showing up
to riots for pete's sakes, electronic monitoring. Here we go again.
And oh, by the way, did you notice the the
cheering that occurred. It's like somebody's holding a sign up cheer. Now,

(10:07):
It's absolutely crazy. It's crazy that the Left keeps embracing
illegal activity and illegal activity that is serious issues. So
here we go again, another case where the system bends
over backwards for someone who should have never been here

(10:28):
in the first place. Salvadorian migrant Kilmar Abrego Garcia shows
up for his ICE check in in Baltimore right after
the judge we just talked about the judge releasing them,
and so ICE is there ready for him? Right, they're
right there, and he checks in in surprise, he's arrested

(10:51):
for deportation. That's called law enforcement doing its job, isn't it.
But instead of accountability, what do we get his lawyer
running to the microphones crying foul because ICE didn't hand
him a roadmap in a set of directions. Here's the reality.

(11:17):
Garcia is a repeat customer in the immigration system and
has committed and been alleged of committing serious, serious crimes.
My friend's deportation isn't a new concept. It's been here
since the beginning of America. In fact, the founding Fathers

(11:39):
some of the first law enforcement agencies that were established
were the US Marshall Service and Immigration and Custom Service.
Did you know that? That's how serious the Founding Fathers
treated immigration and Guardarcia himself is a repeat customer because

(12:03):
he's been in and out of this country before and
has been allowed to stay. It's a revolving door, and
the idea of deporting him to Uganda or any other
country isn't about playing pin the tail on the map.
It's about the United States not being obligated, for Pete's sakes,

(12:25):
to harbor someone who's already broken the rules and serious
rules of the game. Now, of course, the lawyers have
already filed new federal lawsuits. That's all expected, because that's
what happens when you have activists and suits. They want
to stall, delay and drag out this court until public

(12:48):
attention fades and loopholes let Garcia stay. Meanwhile, let's not
forget the American tax payers are footing the bill. Here's
the bigger picture. Every time the system wastes time and
money on serial violators like this, it erodes trouble of

(13:09):
public trust in our laws. It makes legal immigrants who
are very important that people who played by the rules
by the way look around and wonder if the rules
even matter, and it sends a loud, dangerous message. Break
the law and you might just get rewarded with staying

(13:33):
in the United States of America. If we can't enforce
the most basic part of sovereignty of our country, which
is our borders, then we've already seated control. And that's
something no country can afford to do. Mister producer, let's

(13:55):
play cut three.

Speaker 3 (13:58):
When it comes to public safety. Zoron Mamdani is simply
a fresh face for bad ideas that have already failed
in New York City, except that he'd push them further
than ever. Even as he says he no longer wants
to defund the NYPD, he's campaigning on moving billions of
dollars nearly a quarter of the police budget to a

(14:19):
new Department of Community Safety that would rely on the
failed of violence interruption and restorative justice schemes imposed on
a much smaller scale under Mayor Bill de Blasio. This
is basically voodoo dressed up as serious policy, a mishmash
of leftist jargon. Notably, it depends on cash handouts to

(14:39):
credible messengers who supposedly have the inside dope to quash
sidewalk beefs before the shooting starts. That is, Mamdani claims
cure violence programs will prevent crime by paying violence interrupters,
often ex gang bangers themselves to serve as father figures

(15:01):
or spiritual advisors to likely purps. Supporters tout cure violence
as evidence based, but even their cherry picked data say otherwise.
Experiments in violence interruption have always been micro sized, hot
house pilot programs, and even those frequently shown no significant impact.

(15:21):
You're supposed to believe that a tiny six block experiment
that didn't work in Baltimore or Chicago will magically function
at scale across the five burroughs. Mabdani's proposal cites the
Cahuts program in Eugene, Oregon, as a model of peer
response to behavioral health crises. But even a little burg
like Eugene, with fewer people than Washington Heights couldn't sustain Cahoots,

(15:47):
which shut down this past April. Somebody should tell the
Mamdani people to update their campaign lit maybe find a
model program that hasn't closed. Mamdani's community safety plan will
also expand and overhaul de blasio Those be Heard program
be Heard assigns health professionals to respond to nine one

(16:10):
one mental health calls, but the program is struggling, reports
The New York Times, with over sixty percent of calls
deemed ineligible since the situation was potentially dangerous. People who
call the cops because a family member is having a
mental health crisis and being violent know the score. They've

(16:31):
been in this situation many times. If they call the police,
it's because they need a cop, not a social worker.
Then again, mam Donni thinks people shouldn't call the police,
even if they are facing a violent criminal. His posters
suggest you distract attackers by spilling your soda or asking
them did we go to the same high school together?

(16:53):
This is all old bad news in new bottles. No wonder, Mom,
Donnie's now busy trying to make the about fighting President Trump.
If New Yorkers focus on the inanity of Mamdanie's prescriptions,
he'll quickly stop being the mayoral front runner.

Speaker 2 (17:12):
Man, what a great take by the New York Post.
Check out the New York Post on this particular issue.
They just hit the nail on the head. So we
have a Democratic mayor front runner that's been the front
runner for quite some time now and more than likely
is going to win. Folks, that's just the it's just
the understanding this person and his comrades at the Democratic

(17:36):
Socialists of America want to wipe out the enforcement of
all misdemeanor offenses. Let's call this what it is, that's
legalized chaos. Misdemeanors aren't petty in the real world. They're
the backbone of crimes that set a tone for every neighborhood.

(17:58):
Public intoxication, shoplifting, trespassing, vandalism, simple assault. These are all
the day to day offenses that make communities feel unsafe,
that drive families away, and that emboldened criminals to push further.
If you start, if excuse me, stop enforcing misdemeanors, you've

(18:22):
essentially announced open season and on law abiding citizens. Those
in California understand this all too well. It's been experienced.
If you stop enforcing misdemeanors, you've essentially opened announced open season.

(18:43):
Criminals don't start with felonies, They graduate to them when
the system ignores their so called minor crimes. This is
criminology one oh one, my friends. The radical idea is
nothing more than a rebranded version of the defund the
police disaster that has all right already spike crime in

(19:04):
cities across the America, and just like before, it will
hurt working class communities the most, the very people these
politicians use those in exclamation points cling a claim to represent.
You want to destroy the foundation of public order, stop

(19:25):
enforcing misdemeanors. You want to invite urban decay, homelessness, open
air drug markets. Does this all sound familiar? Stop enforcing misdemeanors, ma'am,
Danny and the DSA may call this progress, but the
rest of us know what it is. It's reckless, it's dangerous,
and a guaranteed fast track back to the old days

(19:48):
where criminals ran the streets. Law and order doesn't crumble
all at once. It in fact dies by neglect, and
it does it over time. And that's exactly what Man
Dammy is pushing for New York City. Mister producer played

(20:08):
cut four please.

Speaker 7 (20:10):
Trump floats sending military to Baltimore to fight crime disaster.
President Donald Trump suggested that he's contemplating sending National Guard
troops to the city of Baltimore, Maryland, to fight what
he described as a crime disaster in the city. If
Wesmore needs help like did in LA, I will send
in the troops, which is being done in nearby DC,

(20:32):
and quickly clean up the crime, Trump wrote in a
post on truth Social In that post, Trump replied to
comments that Moore made on CNN on Friday, saying the
president needed to walk the streets of Maryland before making
judgments about the situation. Trump criticized Moore's remarks in his post.
I assume he is talking about out of control, crime

(20:54):
ridden Baltimore, Trump wrote, as president, I would much prefer
that he clean up this crime disaster before I go
there for a walk. Earlier this year, Trump also deployed
National Guardsmen to Los Angeles amid protests and riots against
immigration enforcement in the city. More recently, he's taken advantage
of a provision in the Home Rule Act to deploy

(21:16):
National guardsmen to Washington and take control of local police
as part of an anti crime and beautification initiative. Trump's
comments indicate he's contemplating similar efforts in Maryland that could
see National Guardsmen deployed to fight crime in the city,
which is about forty five minutes northeast of Washington. During
a Sunday appearance on Face the Nation, Moore was asked

(21:38):
about the president's post in real Time. He expressed strong
opposition to the idea, saying that this pace of operations
is not sustainable, citing a cost of roughly a million
dollars per day. Moore also said that such operations are
not scalable to every major American city, particularly when many
of the cities that have the highest crime rates are

(21:59):
the place that have deployed their National Guard in DC.
He said the move would also be unconstitutional, citing the
tenth Amendment, which has long been understood to give states
control of police powers, including powers related to the health, safety, welfare,
and morals of their citizens. It's a direct violation of
the Tenth Amendment. And for a party that talks about

(22:20):
state rights, it's amazing how we're having such a big
government approach in the way they're conducting public safety. Moore
said Trump may rethink bridge funding. In his post, Trump
also said he may rethink the decision to allow the
federal government to foot the full bill for repairing the
Francis Scott Key Bridge in Baltimore, Maryland. Amid his feud
with More, I gave Wesmore a lot of money to

(22:43):
fix his demolished bridge. I will now have to rethink
that decision, Trump wrote in the post. Trump's predecessor, President
Joe Biden, encouraged federal funding of the multi billion dollar
project to repair the Francis Scott Keybridge, which collapsed on
March twenty six, next twenty four after a cargo liner
that had lost power crashed into one of the supports

(23:05):
for the bridge. Six workers were killed in the collapse.
It's my intention that federal government will pay for the
entire cost of reconstructing that bridge, and I expect Congress
to support my effort, Biden said at the time. In
December twenty twenty four, Congress approved two billion dollars in
funding for the project as part of a stopgap spending bill,

(23:27):
the final piece of government funding legislation the outgoing president signed.
Because the funding is congressionally approved, rescinding it may require
authorization from the legislature under the Impoundment Control Act of
nineteen seventy four or through future government funding and appropriations bills.

Speaker 2 (23:47):
It's amazing to me how much money, how much of
your tax paying money, goes to these urban, decayed cities
for nothing. We don't get any benefit of it, none.
And yet we turn around and try to make these
cities safe because we need to make these cities safe.

(24:09):
And one of them is contemplating senting in the National
Guard to Baltimore to deal with a true crime disaster.
And by the way, national Guard troops can be used
by authorization of the president. Under the United States, they
can be federalized and be used. And let's be honest,

(24:35):
he's not wrong about that. Baltimore has been drowning in
violent crime for years. I do at top twenty five
cities in America the most violent cities in America. I've
done it for the last five years. You can look
them up on my substack. Every year Baltimore makes the
list and usually is in the top ten every year. Homicide, shootings, carjackings,

(25:00):
you name it, Baltimore's got it. The city's leadership has
had a chance after chance after chance to fix it,
and they have failed. Now, nobody really wants troops patrolling
American streets. That's not how this country is supposed to operate.
But when a city can't, or worse off, won't protect

(25:24):
its own citizens, it then forces the federal government to
consider stepping in. Trump is putting Baltimore's leadership on on notice.
Get your act together, or Washington will do it for you.
Critics will scream about federal overreach. What about the grandmother

(25:45):
dodging bullets walking to church. What about the child who
can't play outside because the block is ruled by drug dealers?
What's their justice? What do they get? Here's the truth.
You don't need more commissions, more task forces, or more excuses.

(26:10):
If you need leadership with the courage to put criminals
in jail where they belong. And keep them there. If
Baltimore won't do it, then the federal government has to
do it in order to keep American citizens safe. We're
going to go to a break and we're going to

(26:31):
come back with more of America's criminologists with doctor Curry Myers.
I appreciate each and every one of you.

Curry Meyers dot substack dot com. In fact, If you
just google doctor Curry Myers, all kinds of stuff's gonna
come up, and you can look at it that way
as well. All right, mister producer, let's go to cut five.

Speaker 5 (30:25):
Please stop attacking our cities to hide your administration's failures.
We're here again today because last week Boston received a
letter from the Attorney General of the United States on
official letterhead from the federal government, threatening to prosecute city

(30:46):
officials and withhold federal funds unless we cooperate with carrying
out mass deportations. Here is our response. Stop attacking our
cities to hide your administration's failures. Unlike the Trump administration,
Boston follows the law, and Boston will not back down

(31:07):
from who we are and what we stand for. We
will not back away from our community that has made
us the safest major city in the country and a
leading example of why cities around the country make this
country safer, healthier, and more prosperous for all Americans. To

(31:29):
all the federal officials attacking communities that embody diversity, creativity,
and moral clarity. We mayor said this in DC nearly
six months ago, and I'll say it again today. You
are wrong on the law and you are wrong on safety, Woo.

Speaker 2 (31:48):
Boston Mayor Michelle Wou there is blasting Pambondi course and
President Trump over the immigration demands. No surprise there, folks.
It's no surprise. WU has built her brand on sanctuary
pauls and putting ideology over safety. But here's the problem.
While she lectures us about compassion, Boston neighborhoods are the

(32:09):
ones reeling with the fallout, rising crimes, strained resources, and
communities left to finn for themselves. Pam Beyonda and Trump
are saying what Americans already know. Immigration law means nothing
if they're not enforced, can't have a border look like
Swiss cheese, and expects citizens to thrive. Yet Wu would

(32:31):
rather attack the messenger than face the consequences of her
own policies. That sounds familiar, doesn't it. This isn't about
being anti immigrant, it's not at all. It's about being
pro law, pro order, pro American community. The irony is
that leaders like WU claim to champion the working class,

(32:55):
those who are very the very people are the ones
paying the price for her political grandstanding. At the end
of the day, you can't virtue signal your way out
of a crime wave. Attorney General and President are right
to demand accountability. Mayor Wu can keep playing politics, but
families in Boston deserve safety and not sound bites. Mister producer,

(33:20):
Let's go to Cut six please.

Speaker 13 (33:24):
This will be one of the safest places anywhere on earth.

Speaker 14 (33:27):
So you know, I really am honored that the National
Guard has done such an incredible job working with the police,
and we haven't had to bring in the regular military,
which we're.

Speaker 13 (33:40):
Willing to do we have to, and after we do this,
we'll go to another location and we'll make it safe. Also,
we're going to make our country very safe. We're going
to make our cities very very safe. Chicago's a mess.
You have an incompetent mayor grossly incompetent, and we'll straighten
that one out, probably next. That'll be our next one
after this, and it won't even be tough. And the

(34:02):
people in Chicago, mister Vice President, are screaming for us
to come there. They're wearing red hats just like this one,
but they're wearing red hats. African American ladies, beautiful ladies,
are saying, please, President Trump, come to Chicago, please.

Speaker 2 (34:21):
Mister President Trump is threatening to take federal crime again
now from these locations, and now he's looking at Chicago,
and quite frankly, it's about time somebody did. For years, Chicago,
like Baltimore, has been America's poster child for failed leadership,
sky high shootings. There are fifteen twenty homicides every weekend

(34:43):
in that city proper, and I'm talking about it in
the city of Chicago, not the surrounding areas of Chicago.
In Chicago, fifteen to twenty people, usually kids, get killed
every weekend. These murders in America, in these urban sectors
in America outpace many wars war zones for Pete's sakes,
and mayors are more worried about the optics and the

(35:04):
politics than public safety. The truth is simple. If local
leaders won't get serious about crime, the federal government has
not just the right, but the duty to step in.
Critics will scream authitarianism, but let's be honest. There's nothing
authitarian about protecting innisent families from getting caught in gang

(35:26):
crossfire on their own front porches. It isn't about politics,
It's about safety. Chicago has been bleeding for decades, and
the victims aren't lobbyists or activists, their kids walking to school,
their mothers working late shifts, fathers trying to raise families,
and these neighborhoods are held hostage by gangs. The President

(35:48):
follows through, He'll be sending a message not just to Baltimore,
Chicago and all these but to every failing city in America.
Fix your streets or somebody else will. And that, my friends,
is called leadership.

Speaker 5 (36:06):
Folks.

Speaker 2 (36:07):
I wanted to let you know about another opportunity to
see my work. It's called the Saint Michael's Group Podcast,
and my writings and podcasts there are located on substack
at Saint Michaelsgroup dot substack dot com. In my book
The Advent of Feralman, I talked about the importance of faith,
family and formation in our lives. This podcast is dedicated

(36:28):
to reigniting faith, family information back into our lives. So
check it out today again Saint Michaelsgroup dot substack dot com.
It's totally free, it always will be free. I'm never
going to have a paid version on it. And if
you wish for me to come out and speak at
your parish or organization on these issues, you can actually

(36:50):
book me through Catholic Speakers dot Com. What a great
organization that is Catholic Speakers dot Com. And you can
look me doctor Curry Meyers up on that website and
then you can schedule me from there. I'll come anywhere
in the United States. It's not a problem. I would
be honored to do so, and I'd be happy to speak.

(37:11):
Mister producer, can you play cut seven please?

Speaker 15 (37:15):
New data shows more immigrants are leaving the US. The
most recent figure comes as the Trump administration continues it's
hardline immigration stance. Business and Technology correspondent mor Barrett is
joining us live now from Denver, so more. What does
this data show and how might this impact the economy?

Speaker 16 (37:35):
Well, Stephanie, The new data indicates that unauthorized immigrants in
America hit a record high and twenty twenty three at
fourteen million people, and that includes green card holders and
people who are granted asylum. But it also indicates that
this year the the unauthorized immigration population has significantly dropped off,
and that could have a ripple effect on the economy.

(37:56):
America's immigrant population is declining for the first time in decades.
A new Pew Research Center analysis of census data found
about one point five million immigrants have left the US
this year. The data doesn't say exactly who is leaving,
but the report notes the drop is likely driven by
a fall in the number of unauthorized immigrants amid the

(38:16):
Trump administration's immigrants.

Speaker 2 (38:19):
For years, Washington talked tough on immigration but never actually
enforced law. Well, there's a new sheriff in town. It's
called President Trump, who believes in focused deterrence, reinforcement and
removing incentives to stay here illegally, and it's had measurable effect.

(38:42):
One point five million leaving isn't just as statistic, it's
a shift in the culture of enforcement. It shows that
deterrence works when government has the back backbone to follow through.
And that's exactly what Trump promised and delivered. This country
was built on immigration, but legal immigration, and there's a

(39:05):
process to do that, legal immigration. And if that process
is followed, then people can assimilate to this country's norms
and values. If they don't come here legally, they're not
going to assimilate to American norms and values, and then

(39:25):
we're going to have problems. I'll give you a perfect example.
Florida just had three people killed because California allowed an
illegal alien in this country, illegally, who couldn't even speak English.
They literally gave him a driver's license and a CDL

(39:47):
driver's license to boot, which should be a difficult process.
But once you have a driver's license in California, you
can drive just like any other state across the United States,
which is the way it should be. But California put
us in jeopardy because of their policies. It's incredible, mister producer,

(40:16):
let's play cut eight please.

Speaker 8 (40:18):
It would be a wonderful thing if we could give
everything to everybody for free.

Speaker 3 (40:22):
What will happen?

Speaker 8 (40:23):
Incidentally, one of the central promises that this mayoral candidate
Madonnie is talking about is raising taxes on the rich. Well,
guess where. Guess which place in America has the highest
tax on the rich right now?

Speaker 4 (40:36):
Would it be New York, New York City?

Speaker 8 (40:38):
New York City exactly in New York City is the
capitalist center of the world. It's the center of Wall Street,
for goodness sakes, and yet you have the highest taxes
on capital and on investment and on banks in the world,
I mean, in the country, in New York. It doesn't
make any sense. It would be like Nebraska putting a
huge tax on growing corn, and so what is You

(41:00):
know this, John, you're there in New York. What's happened
to Wall Street has been a disaster. It's not the
place it was twenty five years ago. You want to
know where the people from Wall Street are today. They're
in Florida, They're in Texas, they're in Utah. They've moved
out because the tax are so hish.

Speaker 2 (41:19):
This is extremely frustrating. Here we are focused once again
on Mandammy in the New York City race. We talked
earlier about his stance on not enforcing misdemeanors and just
letting them go. People in California have experienced this. You
know what happened through the tragedy of Proposition forty seven.

(41:42):
And by the way, we're not able to roll out
Proposition thirty six because the governor's office and legislators in
Sacramento are refusing to fund it in many ways. But
when you look at the finance, he wants to make
waves about bold proclamations on crime and justice. But behind

(42:07):
all the rhetoric, and this guy smooth, just like the
governor of California smooth. This guy smooth as well. But
behind all that rhetoric, folks, lies at policy blueprint that
could be devastating to New York City's economic foundation and
deepen the very inequalities he supposedly claims to oppose. Now,

(42:31):
why does it matter that we're talking about New York City?
Do you think let me propose this. Do you think
that our biggest American city, if it's not successful, then
ultimately we're not going to be successful. It's not good

(42:51):
for any of our cities to fail in America. Now,
one of Mandammi's most radical proposals is to eliminate the
enforcement of misdemeanors. As I said earlier, he and his comrades,
the Democratic Socialists of America, betrayed the offense's minor inconveniences,
not worth the time or effort police or courts. But

(43:13):
here's the truth. Misdemeanors are not trivial. They're daily crimes, shoplifting, vandalism, vandalism, trespassing,
open air drug use. This all sets the tone for
the community. If you ignore them, you invite decay. Small businesses,
already squeezed by regulation, inflation, razor thin profit margins, cannot

(43:34):
absorb the cost of unchecked theft in order. This is
why economics and crime are so closely aligned. As a
matter of fact, some of the best criminologists in America's
history have been economous. When criminals face no consequences, retailers

(43:57):
close their doors, jobs disappear, and services vanish from the
neighborhoods that need them most. This isn't theory. This is
playing out in real time in the world today, and

(44:19):
we've seen it play out before. During the nineteen seventies,
New York City teetered on the edge of bankruptcy, drained
by crime, economic flight, and failed leadership. By the nineteen eighties,
residents fled in droves, leaving behind hollowed out neighborhoods ruled
by crime. Remember the crack epidemic. Ma'am. Downey's policies risked

(44:44):
dragging the city right back into that same nightmare that
took billions of dollars to repair. As an applied criminologist
and former share I can tell you crime is not random,
it's progressive. Most offenders don't start with felonies, they graduate

(45:09):
to them. Allow a young offender to shoplift without consequence,
and tomorrow he escalates to burglary. Tolerate open air drug markets,
and you'll soon see the violence that inevitably follows. Criminology
is clear on this point. Low level enforcement protects communities
by interrupting criminal pathways. Abandoning misdemeanor enforcement is not reform,

(45:35):
it's surrender. It sends a message to offenders that the
city no longer values order, safety, or accountability. And who
suffers the most when order collapses. Not the political elite

(45:57):
in their protective enclaves. It's working class families in our
neighborhoods in New York City. It's Queen's Harlem Bronx who
face the daily reality of unsafe streets, shuttered businesses, and
collapsing neighborhood trusts. The city becomes food and medical deserts.

(46:21):
They leave there's nothing there for them, and the poor
can't leave because they can't afford to leave. What's left
the poor, the abandoned, and criminals who double down and
pray even more on the poor, and Demmi and the

(46:49):
Democrats socialist policies and sis. The policies will create equity,
but equity without productivity is just poverty with better marketing,
redistribution resources without creating wealth is not a solution. It's
actually it's a well, it's a shell game. Every time

(47:12):
a city embraces redistribution over growth, the results are the same.
Business is flight, declining, declining tax revenues occurs, and increase
dependence on government subsidies. Look at Detroit in the late
twentieth century. Look at San Francisco today. Economic fatality does

(47:35):
not survive when government punishes success and excuses lawlessness. Handouts
don't create wealth, A redistribute poverty, and the city that
relies on dependency rather than opportunity is a city in decline.
We need to stop pretending that public safety and economic

(47:57):
health are separate issues. They are not. They are inseparable.
Families will not stay in unsafe neighborhoods, Businesses will not
invest in unsafe cities. Tourists will not visit unsafe destinations.
Communists and socialist platforms like these undermines both safety and prosperity.

(48:17):
If New York stops enforcing its own laws, it signals
to residents, businesses, and investors that the city no longer
values order. And once that trust is gone, the recovery
is not quick. It takes decades. And here's the bottom
line Zoron. Mandami's policies are not progress, they are regression.

(48:40):
They promise fairness but deliver dysfunction. They claim compassion, but
breed chaos, And in the end they will make New
York City poorer financially, socially, and yes, morally. New Yorkers
deserve leadership that understand the simple truth a city that

(49:02):
refuses to enforce its laws in a city that cannot
protect its people, and a city that cannot protect its
people as a city with no future. If New York
wants to remain a global capital, it cannot afford to
gamble on a utopian socialism disguised as reform. It must
stand firm on law and order and opportunity, the very

(49:24):
three pillars that make it a strong place. Anything less
is not leadership. Quite frankly, it is abandonment. Friends, Let's
get serious for a second. So far in twenty twenty five,

(49:47):
we have lost fifty nine law enforcement officers in the
line of duty. Actually, there was one that was killed
today in Kansas City, Kansas. So far, sixty law enforcement
officers who have died in the line of duty. So
far in August, we've had the following officers killed. Lieutenant

(50:08):
Albert Stout, Junior of Robstown Police Department in Texas. Police
Officer David Rose of Decal County Police Department in Georgia.
Sergeant Kenneth Sallas Spokane County Sheriff's Office in Washington. Sergeant
Caleb Ellsworth excuse me Aysworth of the Baton Rouge Police

(50:32):
Department in Louisiana. Sergeant Ryan Hudson of the Paduca Police
Department in Kentucky. Trooper first Class Dennis Rix of the
South Carolina Highway Patrol. Police Officer Suzanne O of the

(50:55):
Maui County Police Department in Hawaii. Sergeant Lee Sorensen the
Tremandan Garland Police Department in Utah, and Police Officer Eric Estrada,
also of the Tremandon Garland Police Department. Saint Michael, the

(51:19):
Archangel defend us in battle and protects those heroes and
look over them as they make their way to Heaven. Finally,
in other news today, Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy identifies three

(51:43):
states at risk of losing federal funding if they do
not comply with the Trump's administration's English language proficiency standards
for commercial truck drivers. Washington, New Mexico and California have
thirty days to comply, emphasizing the losing federal funding under
the Motor Carrier Safety Assistance Program is just phase one

(52:07):
and that there are other options on the table to
ensure compliance and remarks. Monday, Duffy highlighted the tragic deaths
of three Floridians when the legal immigrant trucker Hargenda Singh,
who obtained commercial driver's license in California and Washington, as

(52:28):
I said earlier, allegedly attempted to make a unauthorize you
turn on a six lane interstate? Who does that? States
don't get to pick and choose which federal safety rules
to follow, as we saw with the FORFIC Florida crash
that killed three. When states fail to enforce the law,

(52:55):
they put the driving public in danger. It's about keeping
people safe on the road. We all use the roadway
and we need to make sure that these roads are
safe and the people who are driving big rigs semis
can understand the road signs for Pete's sake, speak English
and be well trained. And that's something definitely to consider today.
