Speaker 1 (00:01):
Welcome.
Speaker 2 (00:01):
It is verdict with Center, Ted Cruz ben Ferguson with you,
and they're calling it an invasion at the border more
you could just call it another normal day, but this
does seem to me a little bit different. With two
major headlines that we want to talk with you about,
one that says this over two two hundred migrants were
caught on video illegally crossing the border near Eagle Pass,
(00:25):
Texas Overninth Border Patrol sources say migrants poured over the border.
They're in a mass wave of migration, more than two thousand,
two hundred migrants captured on video and there was nothing
the border patrol could do but watch it happen. Sources
provided cell phone video and the recordings of how this
(00:48):
started in Mexico across from Eagle Pass, showing a stampede
of migrants rushing the river's edge overnight and crossing in
a lengthy line in the river from shore to shore. Senator,
this is mass crossing. It's happening right next to the
port of entry and Eagle Pass, which is the legal
way to cross. And they're now saying since at work
(01:10):
they're hearing that their plans for this to happen yet again.
Speaker 3 (01:13):
Your reaction, Well, the border crisis keeps getting worse and
worse and worse, and you got to understand. Egle Pass
is a small town. Its population is about twenty eight
thousand people. It is being invaded. The mayor of New
York City says that one hundred and ten thousand illegal
immigrants in three years is destroying the city. How do
(01:35):
you think he will Pass with twenty eight thousand people feels?
How do you think del Rio with thirty thousand people feels.
How do you think McCallan with one hundred and thirty
thousand people feels?
Speaker 4 (01:46):
The volume that.
Speaker 3 (01:47):
Is coming in. Mayor Adams says that one hundred and
ten thousand illegal aliens, if we don't do something about
it, it will utterly destroy massive New York City. We've got
little cities in Texas the southern border. We've had seven
point two million people crossing, and right now it is escalating.
(02:08):
September is projected to be the highest month ever recorded.
We're up just under ten thousand people a day. That's
what we're facing right now. And Joe Biden and the Democrats,
it's here. No evil see, no evil, speak no evil
it's just damn evil.
Speaker 1 (02:28):
Follow the money. That's part of this.
Speaker 2 (02:30):
And I think we have to now talk about this
new strategy of the cartels. This is I just talked
about this passing an eagle pass. While that was happening,
there's a video that's gone viral that was shot in
Mexico showing a train packed with migrants barreling towards the
Mexico US border being cheered on by people across the border.
(02:54):
This Pharaoh mechs train packed with migrants heading towards the
southern border. We know this is coming, Senator, We see
the passengers, we see them being cheered on by those
on the side.
Speaker 1 (03:06):
This is an invasion. And if we know it's going.
Speaker 2 (03:09):
To happen, how the hell is the Department of Homeland Security,
the Border Patrol not going to stop this train, which
by the way, is getting larger and more people are
getting on the train from the videos that we've seen
across the border.
Speaker 3 (03:22):
Because they want to happen. It to happen, that's why
they're not stopping it. Joe Biden wants this invasion to occur.
Kamala Harris wants this invasion to occur. Alejandro MAJORCIS wants
this invasion to occur. Every damn Democrat senator and every
damn Democrat Congressman who rubber stamps what's happening, they want
(03:43):
this to occur. It's not that they're not good at
their jobs. They don't want to do their jobs. They
want the people to come and.
Speaker 4 (03:52):
Listen. It is infuriating. You know. We had as a guest.
Speaker 3 (03:56):
On this podcast a number of months ago, Brandon Judd.
Brandon Judd is the head of the Border Patrol Union,
and he's a union leader. Brandon is a good friend
the Border patrol agents who are risking their lives to
defend this nation. They are frustrated at a level I
cannot describe.
Speaker 5 (04:15):
You.
Speaker 3 (04:16):
Imagine, Ben, if you did your job every day and
you went out there and you're dealing with You're dealing
with vicious human traffickers, drug traffickers. You're dealing with people
who are armed, who are dangerous, who are shooting at
you or trying to run you off the road. You're
risking your life. You catch people, you bring them in,
and the idiot politicians, your political leadership above you, releases them,
(04:41):
releases them day after day after day, and then you
go back the next day to catch the same people
the next day. It is a miracle. We even have
a single border patrol agent that continues to do his
or her job. They're morale, it has never been lower.
And one of the things Brandon Judd said, and you
ought to go back and listen to the we did
a whole podcast interviewing Brandon Judd where he discussed discuss
(05:05):
what's happening on the ground, and one of the things
he says is he says they actually don't need more
money to secure the border. They'd like more money. We
should have more money. We should have more money for
a wall. We should have more money to triple the
border patrol. We should have more money to buy planes
and drones and assets both in the river and on
the air. All of that we should have. But the
(05:25):
amazing thing is Brandon said, to solve this problem, they
don't need an additional dollar. What they need is policy.
What they need is political leadership that when they catch someone,
we'll send them home, We'll put them on a plane.
The cause of this crisis. Listen, if if you're down
in some impoverished nation, and you know all I need
(05:49):
to do is get to America and I can stay there,
and the Biden administration will put me on a plane
or a bus and send me to whatever city I
want to live in. I get to stay there, I
get to go on government welfare. I get to live
in prosperity. You'd come too. And what happens when these
people arrive Almost all of them have cell phones. They
(06:10):
get here, they call home to their friends and family says, hey,
guess what if you get here, you.
Speaker 4 (06:15):
Get to stay.
Speaker 3 (06:16):
As long as this administration practices catch and release, we're
gonna go from seven million to eight million, to ten million,
to fifteen million to twenty million. And that is what
Joe Biden and the Democrats want.
Speaker 2 (06:31):
I want to tell you about our friends and enviro Quins.
You should choose an air purifier like your life depends
on it, because it's just might. We had a crazy
summer of wildfires. More than thirty five thousand wildfires have
devastated the US this year alone. The toxins and particles
in wildfire smoke can penetrate our lungs and threaten our health.
And that's why viro Quins developed military grade air purification
(06:56):
for your home. I have an enviro Quins, and I
can tell you having asthma, it has been a game changer.
Now they just announced their biggest sale of the year
and you can save a massive thirty percent off of
any of the Enviroquins cleaners for your home right now.
And viral Quinns is specifically designed to wipe out airborne
(07:17):
chemicals and viruses known to call illness, allergies, and difficulty breathing.
Even toxic gases and particles found in wildfire smoke are
no match for enviro Clins. That's why the US Navy
selected Enviralquins protecting purify the air in their facilities. And
Viralquins comes with a free professional air quality monitor, so
(07:40):
you know your family's breathing purified air all the time. Now,
that is going to save you big right now. If
you go to ekpure dot com and use the promo
code Verdict, not only will you get the free air
quality monitor and fast free shipping. That's a two hundred
and fifty dollars savings right there. If you're ready to
(08:00):
have clean air in your home, go to ekpure dot com.
If you've got asthma, this is a game changer. I
have it I'm gonna tell you you're gonna love it.
Ekpure dot com use promo code verdict. That's Ekpure dot
Com promo code verdict centat. There's also something else that's
happened here, and I don't understand it, So I need
(08:21):
you to explain it to me, because if I don't
get it, I think there's millions of others that are
listening that aren't going to understand this either. The US
Customs and Border Protection tweet it out on Monday, saying this,
under US immigration laws, most non citizens coming to our
border are not eligible to remain in the United States.
(08:44):
Asylum laws do not provide for relief solely for economic
reasons or for general violence. Now they put that out,
Then why is it that we have on video Customs
and Border Patrol in San Diego, for example, telling a
man that he can go anywhere he wants to in
the country. He is a free man. He says, can
(09:05):
I go to Chicago? And they look at him and
they're like, yeah, you can go anywhere you want to go.
Then why are they not even doing what their own
tweet says they must do, which is secure the border.
Speaker 3 (09:17):
Well, what Customs and Border Patrol tweeted out, is actually
what the law is. That's what the law provides asylum.
We've long had asylum, But asylum is designed for a
credible fear of persecution. It is when you are, for example,
a political prisoner, you're fleeing a tyranny, and if you
go back to your country, the government will in prison,
will torture, will kill you. That's what asylum is designed for,
(09:39):
and it's an important part of our immigration system. What
is happening though, and by the way, it has long
been the case, as Border Patrol correctly tweeted out that
simply fleeing poverty is not a ground for asylum. That
there are billions of people on planet Earth that live
in poverty, many of them an abject And to be clear,
(10:03):
there is no nation on Earth that allows more legal
immigrants than the United States. We allow over a million
people a year to come to America legally. And so
when it comes to welcoming people, as the Statute of Liberty,
as it says inscribed on the base, give me your poor,
you're tired your huddled masses. We do that more than
(10:23):
any nation on planet Earth. But there are billions of
people living in poverty. And if we simply said everyone
who's living in poverty can come to America, we don't
have the capacity to absorb billions of people, particularly when
you combine it with a welfare system from the Democrats
(10:43):
that they show up here and we give them a
government check. We don't have the taxpayers to fund providing
a government check to every poor person on planet Earth. Likewise,
Border Patrol was correct that simply fleeing violence is not
a grounds for asylum. So a number of the people
coming will say, for example, well my country is really violent.
There are a lot of criminals, there are a lot
(11:05):
of drug dealers. So that's what I'm fleeing. That's not,
under US law a ground for asylum. It has to
be official persecution. It has to be the government is
coming after me and will persecute me and lock me
up and torture me and kill me. That's that's what
credible fear means. So you asked, how come Customs and
(11:26):
Border Patrol can tweet it out, but yet they don't
do it.
Speaker 2 (11:29):
In fact, let's play it because I want people to
hear this. This is a in San Diego, by the way,
is overrun right now with the legal immigrants their buses,
that they're busting people out of San Diego.
Speaker 1 (11:39):
This is a liberal city with liberal leadership, liberal.
Speaker 2 (11:42):
Mayor who is doing, by the way, what Mayor Adams
has said don't do, which is saying, you know, you
can't bust Remember, I think he didn't say a man
that lost his mind or a crazy man down in Texas.
Speaker 4 (11:51):
That was that madman, mad man, that's mad man down
in Texas.
Speaker 1 (11:55):
Yeah, that madman down in Texas well.
Speaker 3 (11:57):
And by the way, and by the way, for the record,
I'm a little offended he wasn't talking about me, ha ha.
I mean he was talking about Greg Abbott is a
good friend of mine in the fact that he's put
thousands of illegal immigrants on buses and sent them to
blue states and blue jurisdictions. But I'm just kind of
offended that apparently I don't qualify as that madman down
(12:18):
in Texas.
Speaker 2 (12:19):
Hey, careful what you wish Force Center. It could happen.
In just a few hours, it could happen. But you
look at San Diego. They're now busing and as this
report that I'm going to play for you, it was happening.
There is at least six buses that I can see.
In the background, there is a illegal immigrant who's broken
into the United States of America who's having a conversation
in English with a Customs and Border Patrol agent. And
(12:43):
this is what the border patrol says to the man.
Listen very carefully. This is from Fox.
Speaker 5 (12:48):
Lastly, we'll take you out to San Diego. Take a
look at this video. Mass releases of migrants underway. There
several hundred migrants being released by border patrol to a
city street in San Diego, some of them coming from
as far away as China and Pakistan. Keep in mind,
these are not Texas buses. These are not Greg Abbott's buses.
This is the Biden administration mass releasing these migrants to
(13:11):
city streets. And one migrant had an exchange with a
border patrol agent where he asked, hey, am I good
to travel to Chicago? And the border patrologan says, yeah,
you're good to go. Take a listen, You're free to
build all very long. You're free too.
Speaker 1 (13:26):
There's no problem with Chicago.
Speaker 2 (13:31):
You can go wherever you want. Your free. So these
buses are coming into San Diego. They're overrunning the city there.
And now the city is saying please leave. You can
go wherever the hell you want to go. You're free,
go wherever you want to go. You're free. That is
the message. The last thing said to these men who
are getting off. I refer them as military age men
(13:53):
getting off these buses, six of them that I could see,
And if you talk to people, by the way, you
can see this on Twitter. Over the last four or
five days, people are shocked at the number of illegal
immigrants center that are in and around the ballpark there
in San Diego, because that's very close to where they're
releasing them. And if you go as street up or
a street down from the Padres, there are mass encampments
(14:15):
now of illegal immigrants that have completely taken over the area.
Speaker 1 (14:18):
It's not homelessness.
Speaker 2 (14:18):
These are encampments of illegal immigrants are being dropped off
by the busloads by the government, and the government saying, hey,
you're free, go where you want to go. You wanna
go to Chicago, you want to go to New York,
you want to stay here, We don't care.
Speaker 1 (14:29):
Just get off for a bus.
Speaker 3 (14:31):
Well, and you were talking about military age men. Just
a couple of months ago, I was down in Brownsville, Texas.
Brownsville's right at the southern tip of Texas on the
Rio Grande River, and at the time in Brownsville, they
were having people cross every day. They were getting every
day between ninety and one hundred. So these were not families.
(14:52):
These were predominantly young men, either teenagers or men in
their twenties or men in their thirties, and they were
just sitting there and they would come across, and everyone
who comes, with the vast majority who come that they're
typically carrying with them a plastic baggie, and in the
baggie they have usually some form of identification, typically a
(15:13):
birth certificate, a driver's license, or a passport.
Speaker 4 (15:17):
They usually have a cell phone.
Speaker 3 (15:18):
Almost all of them bring a cell phone with them,
and they have a name, an address, and phone number
of someone in the United States.
Speaker 4 (15:26):
And they go and they find a border patrol agent.
Speaker 3 (15:29):
The border patrol agents for most of these don't actually
have to catch them. They go find the border patrol agents,
they turn themselves in. When I go out on midnight patrol,
when I bring senators down to the southern border and
go on midnight patrol with the border patrol agents, within
minutes you will have groups who find you and turn
themselves into you. I've had multiple groups turned themselves into me.
(15:52):
And that is just constant. It is a constant stream
all night long. And the Biden administration, the Border Patrol
agents showed me that they now have a new app
on their cell phone and the app is designed to
process illegal immigrants faster. So what the app does? And
we sat there they showed us how it worked. You'd
(16:14):
have an illegal immigrant, he'd pull out, say as birth
certificate or is passport, and the app would scan the
information and it would auto populate the information into their database.
And so they'd get your name and home address, and
age and where you were born in your basic statistics.
And then they'd ask where do you want to go?
And they'd say, I want to go to Chicago, I
want to go to Boston, I want to go to
(16:35):
Des Moines, I want to go to Miami, wherever they
want to go. And the Border patrol agents would say, okay,
go sit over there, and that there was when I
was there, there were a group of I don't know,
fifty or a hundred of them just sitting on the ground,
and within a couple of hours they would move them
through and start the process of putting them on a
bus or putting them on a plane and sending them
everywhere in the country. And they got the processing time
(16:58):
down to two minutes. That's how long it took scan
the information in. Okay, sit there and we'll start moving
you forward to get you where you want to go.
And you ask you said, okay, well, how could CBP
tweet that out? The answer is, it's what US law is.
That leads to the obvious next question. If that's what
US law is, why aren't they doing it? Because Joe
(17:20):
Biden and Alejandro Majorcis are deliberately defying US law. And
this is an important thing to understand. This has never
ever happened in our nation's history. Listen, Barack Obama. You're
not a fan of Obama. I'm not a fan of Obama.
Many things he did were terrible, but on immigration, by
(17:42):
and large, he followed the law. Other than with DACA,
which was a narrow subset of people, on the rest
of immigration, he mostly followed the law. And what that
meant is that under Obama, the Obama administration deported millions
of people. In fact, you remember, the left wing got
very angry with him They called him the porter in
chief because under Obama they would US law provided if
(18:05):
you come in and you don't have credible fear, you
don't meet the test for asylum, they put you on
a plane and they send you back. And that's what
stops illegal immigration. Well, what Joe Biden is doing is
is now they catch you or you turn yourselves into them,
they just let you go. They don't care what US
law says, They're not gonna do it. And I got
(18:26):
to tell you, Ben, our constitutional structure was not made
to function with a president with a chief executive that
just brazenly ignores the law, just says I don't care,
I won't do it.
Speaker 4 (18:39):
No, we're letting you go.
Speaker 1 (18:41):
Tough.
Speaker 3 (18:42):
That's what's caused this crisis.
Speaker 2 (18:44):
Well, and then you add this into this clear change
of strategy at the border, and I'm talking about from
the cartels perspective. They're now realizing that they can do
mass crossings. It's easier on them, hell of a lot
more money for them. And if they can throw people
on train cars, whether they die or not fall off,
(19:07):
they don't give a crap. This is a way to
unload is many illegal immigrants. Is physically possible at one moment,
and this is how bad it is. CBP temporarily suspends
the port of entry operations as migrants flood the southern border.
The suspension of the Bridge of Americas known as Bodha
(19:28):
or Bota port of entry comes as more than these
two two hundred migrants illegally crossed the border earlier this week.
I want you to hear what they had to say
about this on Fox.
Speaker 5 (19:38):
I can tell you that early this morning an Eagle Pass,
we witnessed one of the largest mass illegal crossings we
have ever seen in the last two and a half
years of covering our southern border. We'll get right to
this video. Take a look at this stunning footage. Border
patrol sources telling us just after midnight about two thousand
and five hundred migrants crossed illegally into Eagle You can
(20:00):
see this lengthy line of them stretching from shore to
shore in the river. This video perspective coming from the
Mexican side of the river in Piedros Negros. One of
our contacts over there shooting this video as they essentially
bum rushed Eagle Pass last night. And this happened right
next to the port of entry where the Biden administration
is telling people to cross legally, they don't care they're
(20:21):
crossing illegally because they are little to no fear of consequences.
Take a look at this second perspective, This second piece
of video showing what was almost essentially a stampede of
people rushing down to the edge of the river just
after midnight. You can see some Mexican National Guard soldiers
kind of standing around aimlessly, not sure of how to
try to stop so many people, but they went rushing
(20:43):
into the water and crossed illegally right into Eagle Pass,
over two thousand, five hundred of them according to our sources.
Then take a look at this video our drone team
shot early this morning, after the sun came up and
those people had already made it to the US side
of the border. This is what was left over as
they were being process masses of single adults as well
as some family units. As these migrants continue to have
(21:05):
no fear of consequences for crossing the US border illegally,
they believe if they step foot on US soil, they
will be released into the United States, and they are
not listening to Biden administration messaging that the border is
closed and that they should not come to the United States.
Speaker 2 (21:20):
And as you mentioned, let's just stop there and analyze
that for a second.
Speaker 4 (21:24):
Center.
Speaker 2 (21:25):
They're not afraid because they know that what's being put
out by the administration is a lie.
Speaker 1 (21:30):
They know once they give here, they get to stay here.
Speaker 3 (21:32):
They their friends and family have already come. Their friends
and family have already come. They've called on their cell phones,
so they've said, hey, if you get here, turn yourself
in and these guys will let you go. They know that,
they know that's the process. They're not afraid. They don't
run away. They're not scared that they know exactly. But look,
it's not just that it's not just this volume, this
mass of people coming. They're also bad guys. They're also criminals. Now,
(21:56):
the criminals, the murderers, the gang bangers, the rapist, the
child molesters, they tend to run. They don't turn themselves in.
But what happens is so the cartels will send a
huge mass of illegal immigrants across one portion of the
river that draws all the border patrol resources there. While
they're doing that, a mile up or down the river,
(22:17):
they'll send across the murderers the MS thirteen, the gangbangers,
the really dangerous criminals. They'll send them across. They'll also
send the drug mules across. They'll send the fentanyl across,
and they use the migrants to distract the border patrol
so that they can smuggle in massive amounts of fentanyl
that are murdering, that are poisoning. Last year, over one
(22:38):
hundred thousand Americans died of drug overdoses. That is nearly
twice as many as the number of Americans who died
in the entire Vietnam War. Vietnam we lost just over
sixty thousand Americans in the entire war. Last year, we
lost nearly double that in one year. Because of the
(23:00):
Biden open borders, and it is every day, it's getting
worse and worse and worse.
Speaker 2 (23:06):
There's also a weird aspect of this, and that's how
the media is being forced now to cover this because
there's just too many people that are coming across the border.
We're talking about, you know, tens of thousands, now twenty
thousand plus encounters over the weekend that jumps to thirty thousand.
We see this stampede of twenty two hundred people, and
even CNN now.
Speaker 1 (23:26):
Is having to cover this.
Speaker 2 (23:27):
This is Ed lavendera CNN senior national correspondent in El Paso.
This is what he said reporting on this this morning.
Speaker 5 (23:35):
There are more than twenty thousand migrants in the custody
of Border patrol and Customs and Border Protection right now.
Speaker 1 (23:41):
So a great deal of concern as.
Speaker 5 (23:42):
To what exactly this means and how long this.
Speaker 1 (23:45):
Surge might last.
Speaker 2 (23:47):
Yeah, I mean that's CNN. How long this surge might last?
Is the part here, And then listen to the anchor
at see it in her response as she sais in
cozy New York City.
Speaker 6 (23:57):
Yeah, it's a really good picture that you and your
photographer are showing as you're right next to the shelter,
and yet there are people out there on the streets.
Speaker 2 (24:04):
I mean they're like, yeah, this is probably gonna keep going.
This isn't gonna stop anytime soon. This may get out
of hand. I mean, that's CNN Center saying it.
Speaker 4 (24:14):
Now.
Speaker 3 (24:15):
Well, that's right, but you know it's striking. You look
at the first couple of clips we played, they were
from Fox News. Bill Malugin is doing a national service.
You want to talk about one reporter who's getting out
there with his TV camera and filming this is what's happening.
Remember Kreean John Pierre. Remember what she said, people are
not just walking across the border. It's not happening. Bill
(24:35):
Malugins shows it's happening every day. And by the way,
as Kareem John Pierre come out and said, Okay, I
lied to you. I'm a serial liar. I just tell absolute,
flat out lies from the Press Secretary podium at the
White House. No, she doesn't admit that, you know. I'm
glad CNN finally acknowledged it. That being said, the volume
(24:58):
of coverage on a Fox News compared to a CNN,
compared to an MSNBC, compared to an ABC, CBS, NBC.
If you watch the corporate media, you buy and large
don't know this is going on. They'll run a little story,
Oh okay, we had a surgeon El Paso, quick little story,
but they won't discuss it. They won't cover the news
(25:20):
because and this is the Democrat strategy. You know, I
told you the story of one of the last times
I was down at the border, where a reporter asked me, said, well,
isn't the policy of the Democrats much more compassionate, much
more humane, and I just started laughing, and I said,
(25:42):
you know who doesn't believe that anymore?
Speaker 4 (25:43):
The Democrats.
Speaker 3 (25:45):
Where's Joe Biden, Where's Kamala Harris, Where's any Democrat senators?
Where's a Democrat House member? They're not here because if
they come, the TV cameras come with them. And if
the TV cameras come with them, you cannot see the
dead bodies, the children being brutalized, the women being sexually assault,
the drug overdoses. You cannot see the massive humanity suffering
(26:07):
and defend it. And so it is CNN is responsible
for this, ABC, MSNBC, all of the corporate media is
responsible for this because they are complicit in covering up
modern day slavery. These cartels are global, multi billion dollar
(26:30):
criminal enterprises. They engage in murder and torture and forced
prostitution and drug smuggling, and they have become massively powerful
because of Joe Biden and the Democrats, and the media
is utterly complicit in saying nothing to see here.
Speaker 2 (26:48):
If you're like me and you've just had a knof
of WoT corporations fighting against what you believe in, there

Speaker 1 (28:34):
Of the year.
Speaker 2 (28:35):
So there is also something else that's happening. And the
media you just mentioned the having to deal with seeing
these images and seeing thousands of people, you know, bum
rush the border and come across the stampede. You can't
not see it. It's gone viral too quickly. Being overrun
at the border is too much for the media to
act like it's not happening. Right, If it's three four,
(28:56):
five hundred, they'll look the other way. This is clearly
different when you have actual trains filled with people in them,
you'll look at this and it's shocking. But News Nation
on mourning in America, they had their headline up it
said border report, not a border crisis, Okay, border report.
(29:17):
That's how they downplayed this because they didn't know what
to do with it.
Speaker 7 (29:20):
Listen, this morning, US Customs and Border Protection announcing it
is temporarily suspending cargo processing at the Bridge of the
Americas in El Paso, Texas because you guessed it, the
huge served serge, that continuous influx of migrants crossing into
the country illegally. That means truckers who usually make the crossing,
(29:41):
they'll have to find other routes. Officials closed a pedestrian
border crossing in California for the same reason. This problem
has no solution in sights.
Speaker 1 (29:50):
So it's got no solution. Site.
Speaker 2 (29:52):
We've shut down Commerce Center, which you've worked on. These
new bridges that would help again take the strain off
of these of these these truckers that are trying to
do their job who've been shut down. Now basically they
can't cross the border. Why they've shut down these checkpoints
and and and this is all under the headline of
Border Report.
Speaker 3 (30:12):
Well and and listen, legal trade and commerce with with
Mexico is good. It's good for Texas farmers and ranchers
and small businesses and manufacturers. We do roughly eight hundred
billion dollars of trade and commerce with Mexico every year,
and so it's an important trading partner to follow the
law and and and do business and buy by the
(30:32):
livestock and crops that that we produce by buy cars
and trucks that we manufacture, buy oil and gas and
energy that we produce. There's an awful lot that that
that is beneficial to have legal trade and commerce. And
the border crisis has gotten so bad that now it's
getting harder and harder for legal trade and commerce to
come across because Joe Biden the Democrats have allowed the
(30:55):
border to be overrun by cartels and and look, one
of the comments that was made on that segment you
just played is there's no solution to it. Yes, there is,
there is a solution. Joe Biden when he came into office,
he inherited the lowest rate of illegal immigration in forty
five years. We had negotiated the Remain in Mexico Agreement,
(31:18):
which provided that people who cross illegally into Mexico have
to remain in Mexico while their US asylum case was proceeding.
And it worked, it was tremendously successful. It is Joe Biden,
the Democrats who broke this, and they broke it deliberately
and they could fix it tomorrow. So Biden just went
to New York. He didn't mention illegal immigration at all,
(31:39):
despite the fact that the mayor says that it's destroying
New York City. Biden didn't mention it because he could
fix it. And he could fix it by reversing the
three political decisions he made at the outset of his presidency.
He could resume building the wall instead of trying to
sell portions of the wall, which is what he's doing
right now. He could resume building the wall. He could
(32:00):
number two, end catch and release so that when they
catch people, they actually deport them and send them back
to their country. And he could re enter remain in Mexico,
which produced tremendous success, and that would fix it overnight.
If we started following the law and deporting people, it
would do massive, massive progress to fixing this. But Joe
(32:22):
Biden and none of the Democrats want to fix it.
Speaker 2 (32:26):
Yeah, and even now, and this is new reporting coming
from CNN, they're warning now of a third migrant way.
We've already talked about the first two. But here's what
they've said in the last ten or twelve hours.
Speaker 6 (32:38):
Hybrand crisis at the Southern border is exploding once again
this morning.
Speaker 1 (32:42):
Officials in Alpaso say the Texas.
Speaker 6 (32:44):
City is on the cusp of a third wave of migrants,
and local shelters are already over capacity. The region has
seen a spike in migrants at the Texas Mexico border,
averaging about twelve hundred encounters per day.
Speaker 2 (32:58):
Where's aoc the ages they're still using down there? Where's
she crying in her white pantsuit? Where all the all the.
Speaker 3 (33:06):
To be, to be fair, the white pantsuit is in
the cleaner, So that okay, fair point, fair point.
Speaker 1 (33:11):
We don't want to I don't want to take cheap shots.
You're absolutely right.
Speaker 3 (33:14):
Continue, Look, she doesn't care. She obviously doesn't care. If
she cared she go down there. If she cared, she'd
be willing to call out her own party. But politics
matters more than actually caring about the people who are
dying and being brutalized and suffering. And you know it's striking.
So Joe Biden went to the border once as president.
He went to El Paso. And when he went to
(33:36):
El Paso, it was not during a migrant surge. It
was at a time when when the border was relatively quiet.
Speaker 4 (33:42):
In El Paso.
Speaker 3 (33:43):
The surge was happening happening down in the Rio Grande Valley,
which was eight hundred miles away. So he deliberately went
where the crisis was not acute at that time. And
then the public reporting was amazing, which is that Joe
Biden went to El Paso when the White House said
he did not see a single illegal immigrant. That's amazing.
(34:05):
You have to go out of your way not to
see a legal immigrant. It Many didn't go to the
border and see what was happening there. Many didn't go
to an illegal immigrant detention center. Many didn't go to
a shelter. He didn't want to see a single illegal immigrant.
That he is responsible for. This is it is deliberate,
(34:26):
willful blindness. And everyone in the corporate media who helps
in covering it up, they bear the responsibility. And let
me tell you another aspect of this that is horrific,
which is what has happened to the cartels. Now you
need to understand these cartels. They are among the most violent,
vicious criminals on the face of the planet. According to
(34:48):
The New York Times, which is not a right wing publication,
to put it mildly, in twenty eighteen, the Mexican drug
cartels made roughly five hundred million dollars from human trafficking.
Five hundred million dollars is a lot of money last year. Ben,
do you know how much the Mexican drug cartels made
from human trafficking last year?
Speaker 2 (35:10):
I can't even imagine, just because I know the numbers
of skyrocketed.
Speaker 1 (35:13):
There's no telling.
Speaker 4 (35:15):
Thirteen billion dollars.
Speaker 2 (35:18):
Hey throw my train center and you can double that number.
Row fast, run them across like cattle, right, two thousand
a time. You can make a hell of a lot
more than that.
Speaker 3 (35:26):
That is a two thousand, six hundred percent increase. Joe
Biden and the Democrats have turned these Mexican drug cartels
into deca billion dollar global criminal enterprises. And you need
to understand. These are cartels that decapitate people, that boil
them in oil, that torture them, that kidnapped them, that
(35:48):
murdered them. These are cartels the human trafficking. They do
not view these people as human beings. They don't even
view them as cattle. If they were cowboys rustling cattle,
they would treat them better than the cartels treat these
illegal immigrants. They treat them as property. And part of
property is they're perfectly fine with they're gonna lose some. So,
(36:10):
for example, if you have a raft coming across, and
let's say you have a raft with a young family
and the cartel bringing them across, there's a reason the
border patrol agents don't intercept them in the middle of
the river because if they do, the cartel will flip
the raft and throw the entire family into the river,
throw little children into the river. They don't care if
(36:30):
the kids drown. What happens is the border patrol agents
then immediately move into search and rescue.
Speaker 4 (36:36):
They're trying to save the family.
Speaker 3 (36:38):
They can be pregnant women, they can be elderly people,
they can be little children who are suddenly at risk
of drowning. And the cartels get away and a mile
down the river, they're taking fentanyl and other drugs across,
and they're taking murderers and gang members across. And so
what Joe Biden the Democrats have done is turn some
of the most horribly violent, callous criminals and the world
(37:01):
to among the most powerful and richest criminals on the planet.
And another consequence this is done is destroyed Mexican civil society, listen.
The nation of Mexico is a wonderful, beautiful nation with
a rich, wonderful history. In Texas, Texas and Mexico, we
go back hundreds of years. We have a shared culture
(37:23):
and a shared history. You go down to South Texas,
everyone in South Texas twenty years ago used to routinely
cross the border that if you're in Laredo, you'd cross
over to Nueva Laredo, right on the other side of
the river. You go have dinner there, you have a
great Mexican dinner, and then you come back. And that
was just part of the life in South Texas. These
cartels will kidnap or murder you. That's how bad it is.
(37:48):
And it is entirely the Democrats fault, and not a
one of them gets questioned by the corporate media about
it almost ever.
Speaker 2 (37:55):
If you're a guy and you feel like maybe you've
lost a little bit of your edge, you feel like
complacency has set in, maybe you feel like you just
don't have the energy that you used to have. You're

year ago. If you go backwards. Uh, the President of
the United States of America was in New York City,
and when he was there, he was at the UN
addressing the UN He had meetings with Mayor Adams, the
mayor of New York City, and even did fundraisers with
(39:44):
the Mayor of New York City.
Speaker 1 (39:46):
This year, things are a little different.
Speaker 2 (39:48):
He's not going to sit down and meet with Mayor
Adams because Mayor Adams has been critical of the migrant crisis,
the illegal immigrant crisis that is destroying, in his words,
his city. And he's not even going to go to
the migrant center that's just two blocks away.
Speaker 8 (40:05):
Listen to this, Despite the UN being just four avenues
away from the Roosevelt Hotel, which is the migrant intake
center here in New York City, the President has no
plans to visit or address the migrant crisis here in
New York. In fact, he has no plans to meet
with Mayor Adams during his three day visit, a departure
from last year when the two met and attended fundraisers together.
(40:28):
The federal government also making no indication that they intend
to increase funding to New York City. FEMA providing one
hundred and four million dollars for contacts that covers just thirteen.
Speaker 1 (40:39):
Days of the crisis.
Speaker 8 (40:40):
Here the Biden administration frustrated with Adam's response and his
inability to stop the crisis, also putting the finger at
Congress to do more.
Speaker 2 (40:49):
I mean, it's amazing how your best friend in the
guy that you're campaigning with and fundraising with a year ago,
now you won't even give him the time of day
because he won't get in line and say what you're saying. Yet,
real coward here Centaer seems to be Adams and every
other Democrat, whether it's in San Diego, whether it's on
the border, or whether it's in New York City, who
refused to say out loud, President Joe Biden, do your
(41:14):
job and close the border. Secure the border. They will
not say those words.
Speaker 3 (41:19):
Nope, none of them will. And they still claim to
be sanctuary cities that they say it's destroying their city,
but there's still a sanctuary city. You know the fact
that Mayor Adams uses the phrase that madman in Texas
and blames it all on Greg Adams, on Greg Abbott.
Look from his perspective, he knows it's the Democrats who've
(41:40):
caused this, but at this point his partisan loyalty is
just greater. So he's not willing to call out Joe Biden.
He's not willing to call out Kamala Harris. He's certainly
not willing to call out Chuck Schumer or any of
the Senate Democrats or congressional Democrats. He's not calling out
AOC although you know, as we talked about when and
Jerry Nadler and other Congressional Democrats recently had a press
(42:03):
conference in New York, even New Yorkers were fed up
and screaming at them.
Speaker 4 (42:08):
And yet.
Speaker 3 (42:10):
At the end of the day, the hypocrisy is so massive.
But even acknowledging it's a problem is too much for
Joe Biden. And so now Mayor Adams is persona non
grata because he acknowledges that it's a problem, you're supposed
to utterly ignore it and just let people suffer.
Speaker 4 (42:31):
And it is.
Speaker 3 (42:32):
You know, I get asked a question over and over again,
why would the Democrats do this? And I don't know
for sure. Listen, I'm not a psychiatrist, I'm not Sigmund Freud,
so I don't know what's going on in their head.
I know Number one, they don't care. And the reason
I know they don't care because if they cared, they would.
Speaker 4 (42:49):
Do something about it.
Speaker 3 (42:50):
They would stop the policy decisions that are causing it
to happen, that are causing people to be killed, that
are causing children to be brutalized, that are causing women
to be sexually assaulted. If if they cared, they would
behave differently tomorrow.
Speaker 4 (43:02):
And they don't.
Speaker 3 (43:03):
Biden doesn't, Kamala Harris doesn't, Alejandro Majorcis doesn't. But the
only explanation I can come up with is really twofold
number one, that they've handed the policy agenda over to
the real radicals, to the open border nuts on the
extreme left of the Democrat Party, and they've done that
in almost every single issue. But number two is I
(43:26):
think the Democrats rationalize to themselves there's a long term
political benefit. They see that they view every one of
the seven two point two million illegal immigrants, they view
them as likely future Democrat voters, and their view is, well,
if we stay in power, the ends justify the means.
If some people have to die for Democrats to stay
(43:49):
in power, well that's okay with them. And it's looks
saying that that sounds horrendously callous and heartless. But I
guess Ben, what I would say is if I'm wrong,
if I'm ascribing too callous and heartless a motive, what
other explanation is there besides that, because I don't know
(44:10):
of one.
Speaker 1 (44:11):
Yeah, great point.
Speaker 2 (44:12):
I want to end with what you mentioned, the reporting
that's being done down at the border by Fox reporter
Bill Malujin, And he said this on Fox, and I
think perfectly wraps up the last seventy two hours.
Speaker 1 (44:27):
Hi'm Rtha.
Speaker 5 (44:28):
Well, these surging border numbers are really put into context
when you think about the fact that New York City
Mayor Eric Adams said his city can't handle ten thousand
migrants per month. Well, they're getting nine thousand a day
down here at the southern border, a lot of them
crossing right here in Eagle Pass. Take a look at
this video our fantastic drone team shot showing a massive
illegal crossing in the river right behind where I'm standing.
(44:49):
You'll see a human chain in the water as they're
trying to get across the river. Very dangerous spot. A
ten year old boy drowned in this area last week.
The port of entry is right next to these people
just one.
Speaker 1 (45:02):
Hundred yards away.
Speaker 5 (45:03):
They don't care though, they want to cross illegally because
they feel if they can step foot in the United States,
they're going to be released into the country. You also
want to show you human smuggling pursuit. Take a look
at this video Texas DPS chasing a human smuggler in
Kinney County high speed chase. The driver an illegal immigrant
driving a stolen truck loaded with illegal immigrants. They spike
(45:23):
his tires, he goes off road into the brush, loses control,
and then you'll see on the thermal camera everybody goes
bailing out of that vehicle, running off in all different directions.
Texas DPS arrested the driver and six illegal immigrants. Lasting
to show you down in the Rio Grand Valley with
Texas DPS troopers in the brush as they are arresting
illegal immigrants trying to evade capture from border patrol. Several
(45:46):
of them were wearing cartel wristbands indicating they had paid
a cartel to get across illegally and back out here
live mark the concerning border patrol agents reporting that right
here in Egle Pass they just arrested an illegal immigrant
with a murder conviction and another illegal immigrant with a
conviction for.
Speaker 1 (46:02):
Sexual assault of a child.
Speaker 5 (46:04):
Send it back to you.
Speaker 1 (46:05):
No big deal, right, No big deal.
Speaker 2 (46:07):
Yeah, just people that are killing people and people with
it are raping children. That's who we're catching when we
do catch them coming coming across the border. And you
heard him mention those wristbands, the same rits bands that
the man who's in charge of the border said he
didn't know what they were when you showed him to
him before Congress.
Speaker 4 (46:23):
No, that's exactly right.
Speaker 3 (46:25):
That Bill Blugan is actually down on the border who's
reporting on what's happening. He knows what the wristbands are.
They're color coded for how many thousands of dollars they
owe the cartels. And yet the Secretary of Homeland Security
told me under oath before the Senate Judiciary Committee he
had no idea what they were because he simply doesn't care,
and neither do his political superiors.
Speaker 2 (46:45):

there as well. We'll see you back here in a
couple of days.
Welcome.
Speaker 2 (00:01):
It is verdict with Center, Ted Cruz ben Ferguson with you,
and they're calling it an invasion at the border more
you could just call it another normal day, but this
does seem to me a little bit different. With two
major headlines that we want to talk with you about,
one that says this over two two hundred migrants were
caught on video illegally crossing the border near Eagle Pass,
(00:25):
Texas Overninth Border Patrol sources say migrants poured over the border.
They're in a mass wave of migration, more than two thousand,
two hundred migrants captured on video and there was nothing
the border patrol could do but watch it happen. Sources
provided cell phone video and the recordings of how this
(00:48):
started in Mexico across from Eagle Pass, showing a stampede
of migrants rushing the river's edge overnight and crossing in
a lengthy line in the river from shore to shore. Senator,
this is mass crossing. It's happening right next to the
port of entry and Eagle Pass, which is the legal
way to cross. And they're now saying since at work
(01:10):
they're hearing that their plans for this to happen yet again.
Speaker 3 (01:13):
Your reaction, Well, the border crisis keeps getting worse and
worse and worse, and you got to understand. Egle Pass
is a small town. Its population is about twenty eight
thousand people. It is being invaded. The mayor of New
York City says that one hundred and ten thousand illegal
immigrants in three years is destroying the city. How do
(01:35):
you think he will Pass with twenty eight thousand people feels?
How do you think del Rio with thirty thousand people feels.
How do you think McCallan with one hundred and thirty
thousand people feels?
Speaker 4 (01:46):
The volume that.
Speaker 3 (01:47):
Is coming in. Mayor Adams says that one hundred and
ten thousand illegal aliens, if we don't do something about
it, it will utterly destroy massive New York City. We've got
little cities in Texas the southern border. We've had seven
point two million people crossing, and right now it is escalating.
(02:08):
September is projected to be the highest month ever recorded.
We're up just under ten thousand people a day. That's
what we're facing right now. And Joe Biden and the Democrats,
it's here. No evil see, no evil, speak no evil
it's just damn evil.
Speaker 1 (02:28):
Follow the money. That's part of this.
Speaker 2 (02:30):
And I think we have to now talk about this
new strategy of the cartels. This is I just talked
about this passing an eagle pass. While that was happening,
there's a video that's gone viral that was shot in
Mexico showing a train packed with migrants barreling towards the
Mexico US border being cheered on by people across the border.
(02:54):
This Pharaoh mechs train packed with migrants heading towards the
southern border. We know this is coming, Senator, We see
the passengers, we see them being cheered on by those
on the side.
Speaker 1 (03:06):
This is an invasion. And if we know it's going.
Speaker 2 (03:09):
To happen, how the hell is the Department of Homeland Security,
the Border Patrol not going to stop this train, which
by the way, is getting larger and more people are
getting on the train from the videos that we've seen
across the border.
Speaker 3 (03:22):
Because they want to happen. It to happen, that's why
they're not stopping it. Joe Biden wants this invasion to occur.
Kamala Harris wants this invasion to occur. Alejandro MAJORCIS wants
this invasion to occur. Every damn Democrat senator and every
damn Democrat Congressman who rubber stamps what's happening, they want
(03:43):
this to occur. It's not that they're not good at
their jobs. They don't want to do their jobs. They
want the people to come and.
Speaker 4 (03:52):
Listen. It is infuriating. You know. We had as a guest.
Speaker 3 (03:56):
On this podcast a number of months ago, Brandon Judd.
Brandon Judd is the head of the Border Patrol Union,
and he's a union leader. Brandon is a good friend
the Border patrol agents who are risking their lives to
defend this nation. They are frustrated at a level I
cannot describe.
Speaker 5 (04:15):
You.
Speaker 3 (04:16):
Imagine, Ben, if you did your job every day and
you went out there and you're dealing with You're dealing
with vicious human traffickers, drug traffickers. You're dealing with people
who are armed, who are dangerous, who are shooting at
you or trying to run you off the road. You're
risking your life. You catch people, you bring them in,
and the idiot politicians, your political leadership above you, releases them,
(04:41):
releases them day after day after day, and then you
go back the next day to catch the same people
the next day. It is a miracle. We even have
a single border patrol agent that continues to do his
or her job. They're morale, it has never been lower.
And one of the things Brandon Judd said, and you
ought to go back and listen to the we did
a whole podcast interviewing Brandon Judd where he discussed discuss
(05:05):
what's happening on the ground, and one of the things
he says is he says they actually don't need more
money to secure the border. They'd like more money. We
should have more money. We should have more money for
a wall. We should have more money to triple the
border patrol. We should have more money to buy planes
and drones and assets both in the river and on
the air. All of that we should have. But the
(05:25):
amazing thing is Brandon said, to solve this problem, they
don't need an additional dollar. What they need is policy.
What they need is political leadership that when they catch someone,
we'll send them home, We'll put them on a plane.
The cause of this crisis. Listen, if if you're down
in some impoverished nation, and you know all I need
(05:49):
to do is get to America and I can stay there,
and the Biden administration will put me on a plane
or a bus and send me to whatever city I
want to live in. I get to stay there, I
get to go on government welfare. I get to live
in prosperity. You'd come too. And what happens when these
people arrive Almost all of them have cell phones. They
(06:10):
get here, they call home to their friends and family says, hey,
guess what if you get here, you.
Speaker 4 (06:15):
Get to stay.
Speaker 3 (06:16):
As long as this administration practices catch and release, we're
gonna go from seven million to eight million, to ten million,
to fifteen million to twenty million. And that is what
Joe Biden and the Democrats want.
Speaker 2 (06:31):
I want to tell you about our friends and enviro Quins.
You should choose an air purifier like your life depends
on it, because it's just might. We had a crazy
summer of wildfires. More than thirty five thousand wildfires have

Ekpure dot com use promo code verdict. That's Ekpure dot
Com promo code verdict centat. There's also something else that's
happened here, and I don't understand it, So I need
(08:21):
you to explain it to me, because if I don't
get it, I think there's millions of others that are
listening that aren't going to understand this either. The US
Customs and Border Protection tweet it out on Monday, saying this,
under US immigration laws, most non citizens coming to our
border are not eligible to remain in the United States.
(08:44):
Asylum laws do not provide for relief solely for economic
reasons or for general violence. Now they put that out,
Then why is it that we have on video Customs
and Border Patrol in San Diego, for example, telling a
man that he can go anywhere he wants to in
the country. He is a free man. He says, can
(09:05):
I go to Chicago? And they look at him and
they're like, yeah, you can go anywhere you want to go.
Then why are they not even doing what their own
tweet says they must do, which is secure the border.
Speaker 3 (09:17):
Well, what Customs and Border Patrol tweeted out, is actually
what the law is. That's what the law provides asylum.
We've long had asylum, But asylum is designed for a
credible fear of persecution. It is when you are, for example,
a political prisoner, you're fleeing a tyranny, and if you
go back to your country, the government will in prison,
will torture, will kill you. That's what asylum is designed for,
(09:39):
and it's an important part of our immigration system. What
is happening though, and by the way, it has long
been the case, as Border Patrol correctly tweeted out that
simply fleeing poverty is not a ground for asylum. That
there are billions of people on planet Earth that live
in poverty, many of them an abject And to be clear,
(10:03):
there is no nation on Earth that allows more legal
immigrants than the United States. We allow over a million
people a year to come to America legally. And so
when it comes to welcoming people, as the Statute of Liberty,
as it says inscribed on the base, give me your poor,
you're tired your huddled masses. We do that more than
(10:23):
any nation on planet Earth. But there are billions of
people living in poverty. And if we simply said everyone
who's living in poverty can come to America, we don't
have the capacity to absorb billions of people, particularly when
you combine it with a welfare system from the Democrats
(10:43):
that they show up here and we give them a
government check. We don't have the taxpayers to fund providing
a government check to every poor person on planet Earth. Likewise,
Border Patrol was correct that simply fleeing violence is not
a grounds for asylum. So a number of the people
coming will say, for example, well my country is really violent.
There are a lot of criminals, there are a lot
(11:05):
of drug dealers. So that's what I'm fleeing. That's not,
under US law a ground for asylum. It has to
be official persecution. It has to be the government is
coming after me and will persecute me and lock me
up and torture me and kill me. That's that's what
credible fear means. So you asked, how come Customs and
(11:26):
Border Patrol can tweet it out, but yet they don't
do it.
Speaker 2 (11:29):
In fact, let's play it because I want people to
hear this. This is a in San Diego, by the way,
is overrun right now with the legal immigrants their buses,
that they're busting people out of San Diego.
Speaker 1 (11:39):
This is a liberal city with liberal leadership, liberal.
Speaker 2 (11:42):
Mayor who is doing, by the way, what Mayor Adams
has said don't do, which is saying, you know, you
can't bust Remember, I think he didn't say a man
that lost his mind or a crazy man down in Texas.
Speaker 4 (11:51):
That was that madman, mad man, that's mad man down
in Texas.
Speaker 1 (11:55):
Yeah, that madman down in Texas well.
Speaker 3 (11:57):
And by the way, and by the way, for the record,
I'm a little offended he wasn't talking about me, ha ha.
I mean he was talking about Greg Abbott is a
good friend of mine in the fact that he's put
thousands of illegal immigrants on buses and sent them to
blue states and blue jurisdictions. But I'm just kind of
offended that apparently I don't qualify as that madman down
(12:18):
in Texas.
Speaker 2 (12:19):
Hey, careful what you wish Force Center. It could happen.
In just a few hours, it could happen. But you
look at San Diego. They're now busing and as this
report that I'm going to play for you, it was happening.
There is at least six buses that I can see.
In the background, there is a illegal immigrant who's broken
into the United States of America who's having a conversation
in English with a Customs and Border Patrol agent. And
(12:43):
this is what the border patrol says to the man.
Listen very carefully. This is from Fox.
Speaker 5 (12:48):
Lastly, we'll take you out to San Diego. Take a
look at this video. Mass releases of migrants underway. There
several hundred migrants being released by border patrol to a
city street in San Diego, some of them coming from
as far away as China and Pakistan. Keep in mind,
these are not Texas buses. These are not Greg Abbott's buses.
This is the Biden administration mass releasing these migrants to
(13:11):
city streets. And one migrant had an exchange with a
border patrol agent where he asked, hey, am I good
to travel to Chicago? And the border patrologan says, yeah,
you're good to go. Take a listen, You're free to
build all very long. You're free too.
Speaker 1 (13:26):
There's no problem with Chicago.
Speaker 2 (13:31):
You can go wherever you want. Your free. So these
buses are coming into San Diego. They're overrunning the city there.
And now the city is saying please leave. You can
go wherever the hell you want to go. You're free,
go wherever you want to go. You're free. That is
the message. The last thing said to these men who
are getting off. I refer them as military age men
(13:53):
getting off these buses, six of them that I could see,
And if you talk to people, by the way, you
can see this on Twitter. Over the last four or
five days, people are shocked at the number of illegal
immigrants center that are in and around the ballpark there
in San Diego, because that's very close to where they're
releasing them. And if you go as street up or
a street down from the Padres, there are mass encampments
(14:15):
now of illegal immigrants that have completely taken over the area.
Speaker 1 (14:18):
It's not homelessness.
Speaker 2 (14:18):
These are encampments of illegal immigrants are being dropped off
by the busloads by the government, and the government saying, hey,
you're free, go where you want to go. You wanna
go to Chicago, you want to go to New York,
you want to stay here, We don't care.
Speaker 1 (14:29):
Just get off for a bus.
Speaker 3 (14:31):
Well, and you were talking about military age men. Just
a couple of months ago, I was down in Brownsville, Texas.
Brownsville's right at the southern tip of Texas on the
Rio Grande River, and at the time in Brownsville, they
were having people cross every day. They were getting every
day between ninety and one hundred. So these were not families.
(14:52):
These were predominantly young men, either teenagers or men in
their twenties or men in their thirties, and they were
just sitting there and they would come across, and everyone
who comes, with the vast majority who come that they're
typically carrying with them a plastic baggie, and in the
baggie they have usually some form of identification, typically a
(15:13):
birth certificate, a driver's license, or a passport.
Speaker 4 (15:17):
They usually have a cell phone.
Speaker 3 (15:18):
Almost all of them bring a cell phone with them,
and they have a name, an address, and phone number
of someone in the United States.
Speaker 4 (15:26):
And they go and they find a border patrol agent.
Speaker 3 (15:29):
The border patrol agents for most of these don't actually
have to catch them. They go find the border patrol agents,
they turn themselves in. When I go out on midnight patrol,
when I bring senators down to the southern border and
go on midnight patrol with the border patrol agents, within
minutes you will have groups who find you and turn
themselves into you. I've had multiple groups turned themselves into me.
(15:52):
And that is just constant. It is a constant stream
all night long. And the Biden administration, the Border Patrol
agents showed me that they now have a new app
on their cell phone and the app is designed to
process illegal immigrants faster. So what the app does? And
we sat there they showed us how it worked. You'd
(16:14):
have an illegal immigrant, he'd pull out, say as birth
certificate or is passport, and the app would scan the
information and it would auto populate the information into their database.
And so they'd get your name and home address, and
age and where you were born in your basic statistics.
And then they'd ask where do you want to go?
And they'd say, I want to go to Chicago, I
want to go to Boston, I want to go to
(16:35):
Des Moines, I want to go to Miami, wherever they
want to go. And the Border patrol agents would say, okay,
go sit over there, and that there was when I
was there, there were a group of I don't know,
fifty or a hundred of them just sitting on the ground,
and within a couple of hours they would move them
through and start the process of putting them on a
bus or putting them on a plane and sending them
everywhere in the country. And they got the processing time
(16:58):
down to two minutes. That's how long it took scan
the information in. Okay, sit there and we'll start moving
you forward to get you where you want to go.
And you ask you said, okay, well, how could CBP
tweet that out? The answer is, it's what US law is.
That leads to the obvious next question. If that's what
US law is, why aren't they doing it? Because Joe
(17:20):
Biden and Alejandro Majorcis are deliberately defying US law. And
this is an important thing to understand. This has never
ever happened in our nation's history. Listen, Barack Obama. You're
not a fan of Obama. I'm not a fan of Obama.
Many things he did were terrible, but on immigration, by
(17:42):
and large, he followed the law. Other than with DACA,
which was a narrow subset of people, on the rest
of immigration, he mostly followed the law. And what that
meant is that under Obama, the Obama administration deported millions
of people. In fact, you remember, the left wing got
very angry with him They called him the porter in
chief because under Obama they would US law provided if
(18:05):
you come in and you don't have credible fear, you
don't meet the test for asylum, they put you on
a plane and they send you back. And that's what
stops illegal immigration. Well, what Joe Biden is doing is
is now they catch you or you turn yourselves into them,
they just let you go. They don't care what US
law says, They're not gonna do it. And I got
(18:26):
to tell you, Ben, our constitutional structure was not made
to function with a president with a chief executive that
just brazenly ignores the law, just says I don't care,
I won't do it.
Speaker 4 (18:39):
No, we're letting you go.
Speaker 1 (18:41):
Tough.
Speaker 3 (18:42):
That's what's caused this crisis.
Speaker 2 (18:44):
Well, and then you add this into this clear change
of strategy at the border, and I'm talking about from
the cartels perspective. They're now realizing that they can do
mass crossings. It's easier on them, hell of a lot
more money for them. And if they can throw people
on train cars, whether they die or not fall off,
(19:07):
they don't give a crap. This is a way to
unload is many illegal immigrants. Is physically possible at one moment,
and this is how bad it is. CBP temporarily suspends
the port of entry operations as migrants flood the southern border.
The suspension of the Bridge of Americas known as Bodha
(19:28):
or Bota port of entry comes as more than these
two two hundred migrants illegally crossed the border earlier this week.
I want you to hear what they had to say
about this on Fox.
Speaker 5 (19:38):
I can tell you that early this morning an Eagle Pass,
we witnessed one of the largest mass illegal crossings we
have ever seen in the last two and a half
years of covering our southern border. We'll get right to
this video. Take a look at this stunning footage. Border
patrol sources telling us just after midnight about two thousand
and five hundred migrants crossed illegally into Eagle You can
(20:00):
see this lengthy line of them stretching from shore to
shore in the river. This video perspective coming from the
Mexican side of the river in Piedros Negros. One of
our contacts over there shooting this video as they essentially
bum rushed Eagle Pass last night. And this happened right
next to the port of entry where the Biden administration
is telling people to cross legally, they don't care they're
(20:21):
crossing illegally because they are little to no fear of consequences.
Take a look at this second perspective, This second piece
of video showing what was almost essentially a stampede of
people rushing down to the edge of the river just
after midnight. You can see some Mexican National Guard soldiers
kind of standing around aimlessly, not sure of how to
try to stop so many people, but they went rushing
(20:43):
into the water and crossed illegally right into Eagle Pass,
over two thousand, five hundred of them according to our sources.
Then take a look at this video our drone team
shot early this morning, after the sun came up and
those people had already made it to the US side
of the border. This is what was left over as
they were being process masses of single adults as well
as some family units. As these migrants continue to have
(21:05):
no fear of consequences for crossing the US border illegally,
they believe if they step foot on US soil, they
will be released into the United States, and they are
not listening to Biden administration messaging that the border is
closed and that they should not come to the United States.
Speaker 2 (21:20):
And as you mentioned, let's just stop there and analyze
that for a second.
Speaker 4 (21:24):
Center.
Speaker 2 (21:25):
They're not afraid because they know that what's being put
out by the administration is a lie.
Speaker 1 (21:30):
They know once they give here, they get to stay here.
Speaker 3 (21:32):
They their friends and family have already come. Their friends
and family have already come. They've called on their cell phones,
so they've said, hey, if you get here, turn yourself
in and these guys will let you go. They know that,
they know that's the process. They're not afraid. They don't
run away. They're not scared that they know exactly. But look,
it's not just that it's not just this volume, this
mass of people coming. They're also bad guys. They're also criminals. Now,
(21:56):
the criminals, the murderers, the gang bangers, the rapist, the
child molesters, they tend to run. They don't turn themselves in.
But what happens is so the cartels will send a
huge mass of illegal immigrants across one portion of the
river that draws all the border patrol resources there. While
they're doing that, a mile up or down the river,
(22:17):
they'll send across the murderers the MS thirteen, the gangbangers,
the really dangerous criminals. They'll send them across. They'll also
send the drug mules across. They'll send the fentanyl across,
and they use the migrants to distract the border patrol
so that they can smuggle in massive amounts of fentanyl
that are murdering, that are poisoning. Last year, over one
(22:38):
hundred thousand Americans died of drug overdoses. That is nearly
twice as many as the number of Americans who died
in the entire Vietnam War. Vietnam we lost just over
sixty thousand Americans in the entire war. Last year, we
lost nearly double that in one year. Because of the
(23:00):
Biden open borders, and it is every day, it's getting
worse and worse and worse.
Speaker 2 (23:06):
There's also a weird aspect of this, and that's how
the media is being forced now to cover this because
there's just too many people that are coming across the border.
We're talking about, you know, tens of thousands, now twenty
thousand plus encounters over the weekend that jumps to thirty thousand.
We see this stampede of twenty two hundred people, and
even CNN now.
Speaker 1 (23:26):
Is having to cover this.
Speaker 2 (23:27):
This is Ed lavendera CNN senior national correspondent in El Paso.
This is what he said reporting on this this morning.
Speaker 5 (23:35):
There are more than twenty thousand migrants in the custody
of Border patrol and Customs and Border Protection right now.
Speaker 1 (23:41):
So a great deal of concern as.
Speaker 5 (23:42):
To what exactly this means and how long this.
Speaker 1 (23:45):
Surge might last.
Speaker 2 (23:47):
Yeah, I mean that's CNN. How long this surge might last?
Is the part here, And then listen to the anchor
at see it in her response as she sais in
cozy New York City.
Speaker 6 (23:57):
Yeah, it's a really good picture that you and your
photographer are showing as you're right next to the shelter,
and yet there are people out there on the streets.
Speaker 2 (24:04):
I mean they're like, yeah, this is probably gonna keep going.
This isn't gonna stop anytime soon. This may get out
of hand. I mean, that's CNN Center saying it.
Speaker 4 (24:14):
Now.
Speaker 3 (24:15):
Well, that's right, but you know it's striking. You look
at the first couple of clips we played, they were
from Fox News. Bill Malugin is doing a national service.
You want to talk about one reporter who's getting out
there with his TV camera and filming this is what's happening.
Remember Kreean John Pierre. Remember what she said, people are
not just walking across the border. It's not happening. Bill
(24:35):
Malugins shows it's happening every day. And by the way,
as Kareem John Pierre come out and said, Okay, I
lied to you. I'm a serial liar. I just tell absolute,
flat out lies from the Press Secretary podium at the
White House. No, she doesn't admit that, you know. I'm
glad CNN finally acknowledged it. That being said, the volume
(24:58):
of coverage on a Fox News compared to a CNN,
compared to an MSNBC, compared to an ABC, CBS, NBC.
If you watch the corporate media, you buy and large
don't know this is going on. They'll run a little story,
Oh okay, we had a surgeon El Paso, quick little story,
but they won't discuss it. They won't cover the news
(25:20):
because and this is the Democrat strategy. You know, I
told you the story of one of the last times
I was down at the border, where a reporter asked me, said, well,
isn't the policy of the Democrats much more compassionate, much
more humane, and I just started laughing, and I said,
(25:42):
you know who doesn't believe that anymore?
Speaker 4 (25:43):
The Democrats.
Speaker 3 (25:45):
Where's Joe Biden, Where's Kamala Harris, Where's any Democrat senators?
Where's a Democrat House member? They're not here because if
they come, the TV cameras come with them. And if
the TV cameras come with them, you cannot see the
dead bodies, the children being brutalized, the women being sexually assault,
the drug overdoses. You cannot see the massive humanity suffering
(26:07):
and defend it. And so it is CNN is responsible
for this, ABC, MSNBC, all of the corporate media is
responsible for this because they are complicit in covering up
modern day slavery. These cartels are global, multi billion dollar
(26:30):
criminal enterprises. They engage in murder and torture and forced
prostitution and drug smuggling, and they have become massively powerful
because of Joe Biden and the Democrats, and the media
is utterly complicit in saying nothing to see here.
Speaker 2 (26:48):
If you're like me and you've just had a knof
of WoT corporations fighting against what you believe in, there
is one bill that you pay every mind you can
actually switch from WoT corporations actually make a big difference
when you do it. I'm talking about your cell phone bill.
For ten years, Patriot Mobile has been America's only Christian
conservative wireless provider. And when I say only trust me,
(27:11):
they're the only one my friend's over at Patriot Mode
when I call them friends because they're doing business differently.
They're actually finding conservatives and they're standing with them to
give you an alternative and then using your dollars to
support conservative causes. When you switch to Patriot Mobile, you're
sending a message that you support free speech, religious freedom,
(27:33):
the sanctity of life, the Second Amendment, our military, our veterans,
and our first responder heroes. They have one hundred percent
US based customer service team that makes switching easy. And
Patriot Mobile offers you, and this is the most important part,
dependable nationwide coverage giving you the ability to access all
three major networks, which means you get the same coverage
(27:55):
you've got right now that you're accustomed to, but without

Speaker 1 (28:34):
Of the year.
Speaker 2 (28:35):
So there is also something else that's happening. And the
media you just mentioned the having to deal with seeing
these images and seeing thousands of people, you know, bum
rush the border and come across the stampede. You can't
not see it. It's gone viral too quickly. Being overrun
at the border is too much for the media to
act like it's not happening. Right, If it's three four,
(28:56):
five hundred, they'll look the other way. This is clearly
different when you have actual trains filled with people in them,
you'll look at this and it's shocking. But News Nation
on mourning in America, they had their headline up it
said border report, not a border crisis, Okay, border report.
(29:17):
That's how they downplayed this because they didn't know what
to do with it.
Speaker 7 (29:20):
Listen, this morning, US Customs and Border Protection announcing it
is temporarily suspending cargo processing at the Bridge of the
Americas in El Paso, Texas because you guessed it, the
huge served serge, that continuous influx of migrants crossing into
the country illegally. That means truckers who usually make the crossing,
(29:41):
they'll have to find other routes. Officials closed a pedestrian
border crossing in California for the same reason. This problem
has no solution in sights.
Speaker 1 (29:50):
So it's got no solution. Site.
Speaker 2 (29:52):
We've shut down Commerce Center, which you've worked on. These
new bridges that would help again take the strain off
of these of these these truckers that are trying to
do their job who've been shut down. Now basically they
can't cross the border. Why they've shut down these checkpoints
and and and this is all under the headline of
Border Report.
Speaker 3 (30:12):
Well and and listen, legal trade and commerce with with
Mexico is good. It's good for Texas farmers and ranchers
and small businesses and manufacturers. We do roughly eight hundred
billion dollars of trade and commerce with Mexico every year,
and so it's an important trading partner to follow the
law and and and do business and buy by the
(30:32):
livestock and crops that that we produce by buy cars
and trucks that we manufacture, buy oil and gas and
energy that we produce. There's an awful lot that that
that is beneficial to have legal trade and commerce. And
the border crisis has gotten so bad that now it's
getting harder and harder for legal trade and commerce to
come across because Joe Biden the Democrats have allowed the
(30:55):
border to be overrun by cartels and and look, one
of the comments that was made on that segment you
just played is there's no solution to it. Yes, there is,
there is a solution. Joe Biden when he came into office,
he inherited the lowest rate of illegal immigration in forty
five years. We had negotiated the Remain in Mexico Agreement,
(31:18):
which provided that people who cross illegally into Mexico have
to remain in Mexico while their US asylum case was proceeding.
And it worked, it was tremendously successful. It is Joe Biden,
the Democrats who broke this, and they broke it deliberately
and they could fix it tomorrow. So Biden just went
to New York. He didn't mention illegal immigration at all,
(31:39):
despite the fact that the mayor says that it's destroying
New York City. Biden didn't mention it because he could
fix it. And he could fix it by reversing the
three political decisions he made at the outset of his presidency.
He could resume building the wall instead of trying to
sell portions of the wall, which is what he's doing
right now. He could resume building the wall. He could
(32:00):
number two, end catch and release so that when they
catch people, they actually deport them and send them back
to their country. And he could re enter remain in Mexico,
which produced tremendous success, and that would fix it overnight.
If we started following the law and deporting people, it
would do massive, massive progress to fixing this. But Joe
(32:22):
Biden and none of the Democrats want to fix it.
Speaker 2 (32:26):
Yeah, and even now, and this is new reporting coming
from CNN, they're warning now of a third migrant way.
We've already talked about the first two. But here's what
they've said in the last ten or twelve hours.
Speaker 6 (32:38):
Hybrand crisis at the Southern border is exploding once again
this morning.
Speaker 1 (32:42):
Officials in Alpaso say the Texas.
Speaker 6 (32:44):
City is on the cusp of a third wave of migrants,
and local shelters are already over capacity. The region has
seen a spike in migrants at the Texas Mexico border,
averaging about twelve hundred encounters per day.
Speaker 2 (32:58):
Where's aoc the ages they're still using down there? Where's
she crying in her white pantsuit? Where all the all the.
Speaker 3 (33:06):
To be, to be fair, the white pantsuit is in
the cleaner, So that okay, fair point, fair point.
Speaker 1 (33:11):
We don't want to I don't want to take cheap shots.
You're absolutely right.
Speaker 3 (33:14):
Continue, Look, she doesn't care. She obviously doesn't care. If
she cared she go down there. If she cared, she'd
be willing to call out her own party. But politics
matters more than actually caring about the people who are
dying and being brutalized and suffering. And you know it's striking.
So Joe Biden went to the border once as president.
He went to El Paso. And when he went to
(33:36):
El Paso, it was not during a migrant surge. It
was at a time when when the border was relatively quiet.
Speaker 4 (33:42):
In El Paso.
Speaker 3 (33:43):
The surge was happening happening down in the Rio Grande Valley,
which was eight hundred miles away. So he deliberately went
where the crisis was not acute at that time. And
then the public reporting was amazing, which is that Joe
Biden went to El Paso when the White House said
he did not see a single illegal immigrant. That's amazing.
(34:05):
You have to go out of your way not to
see a legal immigrant. It Many didn't go to the
border and see what was happening there. Many didn't go
to an illegal immigrant detention center. Many didn't go to
a shelter. He didn't want to see a single illegal immigrant.
That he is responsible for. This is it is deliberate,
(34:26):
willful blindness. And everyone in the corporate media who helps
in covering it up, they bear the responsibility. And let
me tell you another aspect of this that is horrific,
which is what has happened to the cartels. Now you
need to understand these cartels. They are among the most violent,
vicious criminals on the face of the planet. According to
(34:48):
The New York Times, which is not a right wing publication,
to put it mildly, in twenty eighteen, the Mexican drug
cartels made roughly five hundred million dollars from human trafficking.
Five hundred million dollars is a lot of money last year. Ben,
do you know how much the Mexican drug cartels made
from human trafficking last year?
Speaker 2 (35:10):
I can't even imagine, just because I know the numbers
of skyrocketed.
Speaker 1 (35:13):
There's no telling.
Speaker 4 (35:15):
Thirteen billion dollars.
Speaker 2 (35:18):
Hey throw my train center and you can double that number.
Row fast, run them across like cattle, right, two thousand
a time. You can make a hell of a lot
more than that.
Speaker 3 (35:26):
That is a two thousand, six hundred percent increase. Joe
Biden and the Democrats have turned these Mexican drug cartels
into deca billion dollar global criminal enterprises. And you need
to understand. These are cartels that decapitate people, that boil
them in oil, that torture them, that kidnapped them, that
(35:48):
murdered them. These are cartels the human trafficking. They do
not view these people as human beings. They don't even
view them as cattle. If they were cowboys rustling cattle,
they would treat them better than the cartels treat these
illegal immigrants. They treat them as property. And part of
property is they're perfectly fine with they're gonna lose some. So,
(36:10):
for example, if you have a raft coming across, and
let's say you have a raft with a young family
and the cartel bringing them across, there's a reason the
border patrol agents don't intercept them in the middle of
the river because if they do, the cartel will flip
the raft and throw the entire family into the river,
throw little children into the river. They don't care if
(36:30):
the kids drown. What happens is the border patrol agents
then immediately move into search and rescue.
Speaker 4 (36:36):
They're trying to save the family.
Speaker 3 (36:38):
They can be pregnant women, they can be elderly people,
they can be little children who are suddenly at risk
of drowning. And the cartels get away and a mile
down the river, they're taking fentanyl and other drugs across,
and they're taking murderers and gang members across. And so
what Joe Biden the Democrats have done is turn some
of the most horribly violent, callous criminals and the world
(37:01):
to among the most powerful and richest criminals on the planet.
And another consequence this is done is destroyed Mexican civil society, listen.
The nation of Mexico is a wonderful, beautiful nation with
a rich, wonderful history. In Texas, Texas and Mexico, we
go back hundreds of years. We have a shared culture
(37:23):
and a shared history. You go down to South Texas,
everyone in South Texas twenty years ago used to routinely
cross the border that if you're in Laredo, you'd cross
over to Nueva Laredo, right on the other side of
the river. You go have dinner there, you have a
great Mexican dinner, and then you come back. And that
was just part of the life in South Texas. These
cartels will kidnap or murder you. That's how bad it is.
(37:48):
And it is entirely the Democrats fault, and not a
one of them gets questioned by the corporate media about
it almost ever.
Speaker 2 (37:55):
If you're a guy and you feel like maybe you've
lost a little bit of your edge, you feel like
complacency has set in, maybe you feel like you just
don't have the energy that you used to have. You're

year ago. If you go backwards. Uh, the President of
the United States of America was in New York City,
and when he was there, he was at the UN
addressing the UN He had meetings with Mayor Adams, the
mayor of New York City, and even did fundraisers with
(39:44):
the Mayor of New York City.
Speaker 1 (39:46):
This year, things are a little different.
Speaker 2 (39:48):
He's not going to sit down and meet with Mayor
Adams because Mayor Adams has been critical of the migrant crisis,
the illegal immigrant crisis that is destroying, in his words,
his city. And he's not even going to go to
the migrant center that's just two blocks away.
Speaker 8 (40:05):
Listen to this, Despite the UN being just four avenues
away from the Roosevelt Hotel, which is the migrant intake
center here in New York City, the President has no
plans to visit or address the migrant crisis here in
New York. In fact, he has no plans to meet
with Mayor Adams during his three day visit, a departure
from last year when the two met and attended fundraisers together.
(40:28):
The federal government also making no indication that they intend
to increase funding to New York City. FEMA providing one
hundred and four million dollars for contacts that covers just thirteen.
Speaker 1 (40:39):
Days of the crisis.
Speaker 8 (40:40):
Here the Biden administration frustrated with Adam's response and his
inability to stop the crisis, also putting the finger at
Congress to do more.
Speaker 2 (40:49):
I mean, it's amazing how your best friend in the
guy that you're campaigning with and fundraising with a year ago,
now you won't even give him the time of day
because he won't get in line and say what you're saying. Yet,
real coward here Centaer seems to be Adams and every
other Democrat, whether it's in San Diego, whether it's on
the border, or whether it's in New York City, who
refused to say out loud, President Joe Biden, do your
(41:14):
job and close the border. Secure the border. They will
not say those words.
Speaker 3 (41:19):
Nope, none of them will. And they still claim to
be sanctuary cities that they say it's destroying their city,
but there's still a sanctuary city. You know the fact
that Mayor Adams uses the phrase that madman in Texas
and blames it all on Greg Adams, on Greg Abbott.
Look from his perspective, he knows it's the Democrats who've
(41:40):
caused this, but at this point his partisan loyalty is
just greater. So he's not willing to call out Joe Biden.
He's not willing to call out Kamala Harris. He's certainly
not willing to call out Chuck Schumer or any of
the Senate Democrats or congressional Democrats. He's not calling out
AOC although you know, as we talked about when and
Jerry Nadler and other Congressional Democrats recently had a press
(42:03):
conference in New York, even New Yorkers were fed up
and screaming at them.
Speaker 4 (42:08):
And yet.
Speaker 3 (42:10):
At the end of the day, the hypocrisy is so massive.
But even acknowledging it's a problem is too much for
Joe Biden. And so now Mayor Adams is persona non
grata because he acknowledges that it's a problem, you're supposed
to utterly ignore it and just let people suffer.
Speaker 4 (42:31):
And it is.
Speaker 3 (42:32):
You know, I get asked a question over and over again,
why would the Democrats do this? And I don't know
for sure. Listen, I'm not a psychiatrist, I'm not Sigmund Freud,
so I don't know what's going on in their head.
I know Number one, they don't care. And the reason
I know they don't care because if they cared, they would.
Speaker 4 (42:49):
Do something about it.
Speaker 3 (42:50):
They would stop the policy decisions that are causing it
to happen, that are causing people to be killed, that
are causing children to be brutalized, that are causing women
to be sexually assaulted. If if they cared, they would
behave differently tomorrow.
Speaker 4 (43:02):
And they don't.
Speaker 3 (43:03):
Biden doesn't, Kamala Harris doesn't, Alejandro Majorcis doesn't. But the
only explanation I can come up with is really twofold
number one, that they've handed the policy agenda over to
the real radicals, to the open border nuts on the
extreme left of the Democrat Party, and they've done that
in almost every single issue. But number two is I
(43:26):
think the Democrats rationalize to themselves there's a long term
political benefit. They see that they view every one of
the seven two point two million illegal immigrants, they view
them as likely future Democrat voters, and their view is, well,
if we stay in power, the ends justify the means.
If some people have to die for Democrats to stay
(43:49):
in power, well that's okay with them. And it's looks
saying that that sounds horrendously callous and heartless. But I
guess Ben, what I would say is if I'm wrong,
if I'm ascribing too callous and heartless a motive, what
other explanation is there besides that, because I don't know
(44:10):
of one.
Speaker 1 (44:11):
Yeah, great point.
Speaker 2 (44:12):
I want to end with what you mentioned, the reporting
that's being done down at the border by Fox reporter
Bill Malujin, And he said this on Fox, and I
think perfectly wraps up the last seventy two hours.
Speaker 1 (44:27):
Hi'm Rtha.
Speaker 5 (44:28):
Well, these surging border numbers are really put into context
when you think about the fact that New York City
Mayor Eric Adams said his city can't handle ten thousand
migrants per month. Well, they're getting nine thousand a day
down here at the southern border, a lot of them
crossing right here in Eagle Pass. Take a look at
this video our fantastic drone team shot showing a massive
illegal crossing in the river right behind where I'm standing.
(44:49):
You'll see a human chain in the water as they're
trying to get across the river. Very dangerous spot. A
ten year old boy drowned in this area last week.
The port of entry is right next to these people
just one.
Speaker 1 (45:02):
Hundred yards away.
Speaker 5 (45:03):
They don't care though, they want to cross illegally because
they feel if they can step foot in the United States,
they're going to be released into the country. You also
want to show you human smuggling pursuit. Take a look
at this video Texas DPS chasing a human smuggler in
Kinney County high speed chase. The driver an illegal immigrant
driving a stolen truck loaded with illegal immigrants. They spike
(45:23):
his tires, he goes off road into the brush, loses control,
and then you'll see on the thermal camera everybody goes
bailing out of that vehicle, running off in all different directions.
Texas DPS arrested the driver and six illegal immigrants. Lasting
to show you down in the Rio Grand Valley with
Texas DPS troopers in the brush as they are arresting
illegal immigrants trying to evade capture from border patrol. Several
(45:46):
of them were wearing cartel wristbands indicating they had paid
a cartel to get across illegally and back out here
live mark the concerning border patrol agents reporting that right
here in Egle Pass they just arrested an illegal immigrant
with a murder conviction and another illegal immigrant with a
conviction for.
Speaker 1 (46:02):
Sexual assault of a child.
Speaker 5 (46:04):
Send it back to you.
Speaker 1 (46:05):
No big deal, right, No big deal.
Speaker 2 (46:07):
Yeah, just people that are killing people and people with
it are raping children. That's who we're catching when we
do catch them coming coming across the border. And you
heard him mention those wristbands, the same rits bands that
the man who's in charge of the border said he
didn't know what they were when you showed him to
him before Congress.
Speaker 4 (46:23):
No, that's exactly right.
Speaker 3 (46:25):
That Bill Blugan is actually down on the border who's
reporting on what's happening. He knows what the wristbands are.
They're color coded for how many thousands of dollars they
owe the cartels. And yet the Secretary of Homeland Security
told me under oath before the Senate Judiciary Committee he
had no idea what they were because he simply doesn't care,
and neither do his political superiors.
