  Speaker 4: And if you want a little bang in your yin-yang,
• 0:24
  Speaker 4: come along.
• 0:25
  Speaker 5: Forty seven years they've been negotiating with these people.
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: They're great negotiators. And because they're not going to.
• 0:31
  Speaker 4: Have a nuclear weapon.
• 0:33
  Speaker 5: And so if Trump doesn't see that we're losing every day,
• 0:36
  Speaker 5: he continues this thing.
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: He's going to just face more and more political problems,
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: military problems and all sorts of problems.
• 0:43
  Speaker 2: And it says that even if Democrats don't like Donald Trump,
• 0:45
  Speaker 2: they don't like their own party either when it comes
• 0:48
  Speaker 2: to Congress.
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: And overall, I mean, my goodness gracious.
• 0:51
  Speaker 2: Freedom is back in style.
• 0:54
  Speaker 6: Welcome to the revolution.
• 0:57
  Speaker 7: Yeah, we're coming.
• 0:59
  Speaker 3: To your city. Gonna play our guitars and sing you
• 1:05
  Speaker 3: a country song.
• 1:07
  Speaker 2: The new Sean Hannity Show. More behind-the-scenes information on breaking
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: news and more bold, inspired solutions for America. Stay right
• 1:19
  Speaker 2: here for our final news roundup and information overload.
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: Our news roundup and information overload hour. Our toll-free telephone
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: number is 800-941-SHAWN if you want to be a part
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: of the program. In just a minute, we're going to
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: introduce you to a man by the name of Joe Abraham.
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: He is an angel dad. He is the father to
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: Katie Abraham, who was taken from us far too soon
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: when an illegal alien... hit the back of a car
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: sitting at a red light. He was in the back seat.
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: He died in January of 2025. Can you imagine as
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: a parent? I'm going to play this in a second.
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: But we have Democrats, and we were discussing this earlier
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: in the program today with Congressman Brandon Gill, and we
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: have Democrats and some Republicans even that are pushing for
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: this idiotic, imbecilic, insane idea of the Dignity Act, which
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: is just, oh, never mind that you didn't respect our laws,
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: our borders and sovereignty. Never mind that we didn't vet you.
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: We're just going to let you into the country anyway.
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: You know, I think we are the most dominant program
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: to point out examples of Americans murdered. and raped and
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: victims of other violent crimes and children that are molested.
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: And everybody else seems to ignore it. Clearly, the Democratic
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: Party never wants to talk about it. They wouldn't even
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: stand for the family of Lake and Riley and the
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: family of Jocelyn Nungary. And they wouldn't stand and say
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: that the first role of government is to protect American citizens,
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: not illegals. So I think that's all you need to
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: know about them. And they lied about open borders for
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: four years. And we have 12 plus million unvetted illegals
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: from over 200 countries in our country many of them
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: violent criminals, even known terrorists. Now, I want you to
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: listen to a couple of angel moms before we get
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: to Joe Abraham. One is, her name is Agnes Giboney,
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: and she's a mother that talks about her son, Ronald
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: Da Silva, murdered by an illegal immigrant. I want you
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: to listen to her story.
• 3:20
  Speaker 8: My name is Agnes Giboney. I am here to speak
• 3:23
  Speaker 8: about my only son, Ronald Da Silva. Ronald was 29
• 3:28
  Speaker 8: years old when he was murdered. He had a smile
• 3:32
  Speaker 8: that would light up a room. He was caring, compassionate,
• 3:35
  Speaker 8: and full of life. This is my son. He loved
• 3:40
  Speaker 8: working on cars. He had a natural gift for it.
• 3:44
  Speaker 8: He loved animals so much that one day he brought
• 3:46
  Speaker 8: a baby crow to my house and said, please take
• 3:49
  Speaker 8: care of it, don't let it die. He was funny,
• 3:53
  Speaker 8: always playing pranks, and his laughter filled our home. and
• 4:00
  Speaker 8: gave the kind of bear hugs a mother never forgets.
• 4:06
  Speaker 8: He was also a loving father to two young boys,
• 4:11
  Speaker 8: something that the media often forgets is the children left
• 4:15
  Speaker 8: behind by those that were killed by illegal aliens called
• 4:19
  Speaker 8: true family separation. My family changed forever. My life changed
• 4:27
  Speaker 8: forever on April in 2002. My son was standing on
• 4:31
  Speaker 8: a friend's driveway when he was shot. He was taken
• 4:35
  Speaker 8: to the hospital where he underwent surgery, but the doctors
• 4:40
  Speaker 8: couldn't save him. He bled to death. When I arrived
• 4:44
  Speaker 8: at the hospital, through a window to look at my
• 4:49
  Speaker 8: son's lifeless body, I banged on that window yelling out
• 4:54
  Speaker 8: his name, Ronald, please open your eyes. Don't do this
• 4:58
  Speaker 8: to me. I thought it was a well-orchestrated prank. But
• 5:04
  Speaker 8: I was wrong. My son never opened his eyes. He
• 5:08
  Speaker 8: was laying there with his eyes still taped, still intubated,
• 5:12
  Speaker 8: and I was not allowed to hold or touch my son.
• 5:15
  Speaker 8: That moment forever froze in my mind. That image will
• 5:20
  Speaker 8: never leave my mind. I am here today to honor
• 5:24
  Speaker 8: my son, but also to speak for families like mine
• 5:29
  Speaker 8: whose lives were changed in an instant and never returned
• 5:33
  Speaker 8: to what they knew before.
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: Every one of these stories is so, so heartbreaking. And
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: the worst part is they're all preventable. Now, I want
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: you to listen to Patty Fox, another angel mom, talking
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: about her daughter, Carissa, who became severely disabled after an
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: illegal crashed into her. her and fled the scene this
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: happens all the time listen my name is patty fox.
• 5:58
  Speaker 9: And i'm here to speak about my daughter carissa aspness
• 6:02
  Speaker 9: before everything she was extremely driven at 16 she approached
• 6:09
  Speaker 9: me and told me about her dream job at a
• 6:12
  Speaker 9: high-end salon i didn't think she was going to get
• 6:15
  Speaker 9: it she got it at 19 she was the youngest
• 6:20
  Speaker 9: fragrance specialist in chanel At 22, she was attending esthetician
• 6:27
  Speaker 9: school with big dreams of one day opening her own
• 6:31
  Speaker 9: skincare line.
• 6:34
  Speaker 4: Then the crash happened.
• 6:36
  Speaker 8: We celebrated her 23rd birthday.
• 6:39
  Speaker 9: March 15th. She is nonverbal. She is minimally conscious. She's
• 6:46
  Speaker 9: wheelchair bound. And she ate her birthday dinner through a G-tube.
• 6:52
  Speaker 9: Every day is bittersweet. For us, we experience every emotion imaginable. Anger, sadness, grief, joy, pride, gratitude.
• 7:08
  Speaker 9: I miss her voice. I miss her laugh. And we
• 7:14
  Speaker 9: work towards infusing joy into our lives and embracing who
• 7:19
  Speaker 9: she is now. The voice program was very simple to
• 7:26
  Speaker 9: navigate and to use. I was grateful for the service provided,
• 7:31
  Speaker 9: which I would not have known about if not for X.
• 7:36
  Speaker 9: Thank you, Elon Musk. The mainstream media is not very
• 7:44
  Speaker 9: open about such resources available to us. Thank you, Denver ERO.
• 7:51
  Speaker 9: We received word the beginning of the month that the
• 7:57
  Speaker 9: person that had hit my daughter.
• 7:58
  Speaker 8: And fled the scene has been deported.
• 8:04
  Speaker 9: Thank you for the only justice and closure that my
• 8:10
  Speaker 9: family will ever receive.
• 8:13
  Speaker 8: Thank you, President Trump.
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: Whole life changed, upended. Because somebody that didn't belong in
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: this country gets behind the wheel of a car. I'm
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: going to play one more. Jennifer Boss, angel mom, talking
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: about her daughter Megan, whose body was stuffed in a
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: garbage can by an unvetted illegal immigrant. Listen to her story.
• 8:34
  Speaker 10: This is my daughter Megan, and I came here to
• 8:36
  Speaker 10: tell you about her. She was my firstborn child. She
• 8:42
  Speaker 10: was my only daughter. She was a mother. a beloved sister,
• 8:48
  Speaker 10: an aunt, a fiercely loyal friend. Megan had been planning
• 8:54
  Speaker 10: to return to college and start her own business. She
• 8:57
  Speaker 10: was really bubbly and creative, and she always did the
• 9:01
  Speaker 10: craziest things to make somebody laugh when they were starting
• 9:05
  Speaker 10: to feel down. That's who she was. The mischievous sparkle
• 9:11
  Speaker 10: in her eye, you can see it. The love that
• 9:16
  Speaker 10: she generously gave to everybody and the hope that she
• 9:20
  Speaker 10: had for her future was erased by someone who had
• 9:23
  Speaker 10: no right to be in this country.
• 9:27
  Speaker 4: She went to his house and she never left.
• 9:31
  Speaker 10: He had taken her body and stuffed it in a
• 9:32
  Speaker 10: garbage can, keeping her doused in bleach for 51 days
• 9:36
  Speaker 10: while we searched for her desperately.
• 9:40
  Speaker 4: That's why we fight for her every day.
• 9:43
  Speaker 10: This has been incredibly hard on our family, especially right now,
• 9:47
  Speaker 10: tomorrow marks one year since they found her. A tragedy
• 9:54
  Speaker 10: like mine and the other families that are here. Excuse.
• 10:00
  Speaker 4: Me, could have been prevented.
• 10:04
  Speaker 10: And that knowledge creates an agony for us like no other.
• 10:11
  Speaker 10: We show up like this to speak what we're living
• 10:15
  Speaker 10: every day, the dire consequence of open borders. and dangerous
• 10:22
  Speaker 10: sanctuary policies. We come hoping that our stories raise awareness
• 10:30
  Speaker 10: of the vulnerabilities.
• 10:32
  Speaker 4: We have to find a way to.
• 10:35
  Speaker 10: Work together to put an end to these tragedies that
• 10:38
  Speaker 10: we have the power to prevent.
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: The legacy media mob won't ever talk about these victims
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: of crime. The most preventable national security disaster in american
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: history which brings us to joe abraham he's the father
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: of katie abraham and he slams dickie durbin for failing
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: to address him at a senate hearing what did they
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: can't even did they cause this they sat silent while
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: we had open borders for four years and over 12
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: plus million we don't know the exact number came into
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: this country some of the most violent criminals around the
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: world over 200 countries and listen to this exchange Thank.
• 11:19
  Speaker 4: You in particular for being here today. Thank you.
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: I want to extend my deepest condolences.
• 11:26
  Speaker 11: I appreciate it. I also appreciate Ranking Member Welsh and Mr.
• 11:30
  Speaker 11: Padilla for recognizing that. What I don't understand is why
• 11:33
  Speaker 11: my senator of Illinois, Mr. Durbin, haven't heard two words
• 11:38
  Speaker 11: from him toward me. But sorry, I want to take
• 11:40
  Speaker 11: your time. Kind of amazing.
• 11:43
  Speaker 4: I think it is a fair question to ask. Kind
• 11:45
  Speaker 4: of happy he's calling it quits.
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: Oh, anyway, Joe Abraham is with us. He's an angel dad.
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: His daughter, Katie Abraham, taken way too soon and illegal,
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: hit the back of a car sitting at a red light.
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: He was in the back seat. He died in January 2025.
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: She was only 20 years old.
• 12:03
  Speaker 5: Mr.
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: Abraham, first, my deepest condolences. condolences. I don't know if
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: there's anything harder in life to deal with than what
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: you have had to live through. I'm so, so sorry
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: from the bottom of my heart. And I know I
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: speak for my audience.
• 12:18
  Speaker 11: Hey, Sean, thanks for having me. And you're absolutely right.
• 12:21
  Speaker 11: This isn't anything you can ever prepare for. This was
• 12:24
  Speaker 11: completely thrusted upon us. It was something that should have
• 12:28
  Speaker 11: been foreseeable. What we've been talking about is communities, something
• 12:33
  Speaker 11: utterly preventable. And now, you know, There's no accountability, no responsibility.
• 12:42
  Speaker 11: All I hear is that crime happens. Citizens do similar things. And,
• 12:46
  Speaker 11: you know, I think people miss the point and it's
• 12:49
  Speaker 11: completely irrelevant what citizens are doing. This is a person
• 12:52
  Speaker 11: who should have never been here, would have never been drunk,
• 12:55
  Speaker 11: would have never killed my daughter.
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: Let's walk through what happened to your daughter. He was
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: only 20 years old. It's January 2025. I assume either
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: somebody came to your door or somebody called you. What happened?
• 13:08
  Speaker 4: Yeah, we received a call from Urbana detectives.
• 13:10
  Speaker 11: And literally, Sean, we had to hang up the first
• 13:14
  Speaker 11: time around and gather ourselves and call them back to
• 13:19
  Speaker 11: really understand what happened. Because when you hear someone in
• 13:24
  Speaker 11: authority tell you your daughter's been killed, It, you know,
• 13:28
  Speaker 11: initially it doesn't connect.
• 13:29
  Speaker 4: So we pulled ourselves together.
• 13:32
  Speaker 11: We called them back and then they laid out the
• 13:34
  Speaker 11: details that she was in the backseat behind the driver.
• 13:37
  Speaker 11: They were in a Honda Civic. There were five girls
• 13:39
  Speaker 11: just having an ordinary night at SUV traveling at almost
• 13:45
  Speaker 11: 80 miles per hour on a, you know, right in
• 13:48
  Speaker 11: front of Carley Hospital there at the University of Illinois,
• 13:52
  Speaker 11: so not a 55-mile-an-hour zone or anything like that. It's
• 13:55
  Speaker 11: a residential-type zone. Barreled into the car from behind, devastated
• 14:02
  Speaker 11: that vehicle. First responders had to pry open that vehicle
• 14:06
  Speaker 11: like a tuna can to pull, number one, my my
• 14:09
  Speaker 11: daughter's lifeless body out of it. And it still pains
• 14:13
  Speaker 11: me to this day that I wasn't there for her
• 14:15
  Speaker 11: and her last breaths, you know, how she was stolen. And,
• 14:19
  Speaker 11: you know, they love to talk about this, you know, stolen, disappeared, separated,
• 14:26
  Speaker 11: you know, and they never consider us. I've been Katie
• 14:30
  Speaker 11: was stolen, disappeared, and I'll never see her again. So
• 14:34
  Speaker 11: he fled the scene. Detectives said they weren't real sure
• 14:38
  Speaker 11: who he was. It turns out he was an illegal immigrant.
• 14:40
  Speaker 11: Now he moved from Urbana to Chicago, down to almost
• 14:44
  Speaker 11: the border of Mexico within like a day and a half.
• 14:47
  Speaker 11: He had help. There was money being moved around. I
• 14:49
  Speaker 11: can't really get a full understanding or an account from
• 14:52
  Speaker 11: Illinois as to how that happened. uh illinois does not
• 14:55
  Speaker 11: share illinois is not victim friendly uh illinois you know
• 15:00
  Speaker 11: on one hand will tell you you'll get the full
• 15:02
  Speaker 11: extent of the law and on the other hand when
• 15:04
  Speaker 11: reality hits you get a plea deal and this guy
• 15:07
  Speaker 11: will see the light of day again after killing two women.
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: Well i want you to and the other side we're
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: going to take a little break here um i want
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: you i want to go through what J.B. Pritzker has
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: been doing, because he is lashing out as usual at ICE.
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: I want to know if he ever called you or
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: your family or reached out to any of the other victims,
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: because he's more interested in attacking ICE and calling them
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: Gestapo and Nazi and fascist like every other, you know,
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: liberal Democrat that allowed this to happen and said nothing
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: and even defended the big lie that the border was
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: closed and the border was secure. But I can't think
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: of anything worse. Our prayers, our thoughts are with you.
• 15:47
  Speaker 1: Joe Abraham, angel dad, lost his 20-year-old daughter, Katie, back
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: in January of 2025 and is confronting these politicians that
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: say nothing. Anyway, we'll have more on the other side,
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: more with Joe Abraham, and then we'll get your calls in, 800-941-SHAWN,
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: as we continue.

• 19:13
  Speaker 1: you're going to do that, According to the FBI, 2022,
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: the latest year we have statistics for, that is less than.
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: 01 % of all altercations that require that lethal response.

• 21:17
  Speaker 1: our number is 800-941-SHAWN. If you want to be a
• 21:20
  Speaker 1: part of the program, we continue. Joe Abraham is with us.
• 21:23
  Speaker 1: He is an angel dad. He is the father to
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: Katie Abraham. He sadly was killed by an illegal immigrant
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: that plowed into the back of her car. This is
• 21:36
  Speaker 1: in January of 2025. He took to social media. addressing
• 21:43
  Speaker 1: his governor just like he dressed down in person his
• 21:45
  Speaker 1: own senator, Dick Durbin, and he said, I'm outraged by
• 21:49
  Speaker 1: your refusal to work with the Department of Homeland Security
• 21:52
  Speaker 1: and ICE to remove known criminal illegal immigrants and by
• 21:57
  Speaker 1: the callousness you continue to show to victims of your policies.
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: And more specifically, he's talking about Operation Midnight Blitz, which
• 22:05
  Speaker 1: was named for his daughter, Katie Abraham. killed by this
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: illegal immigrant, never should have been here, no verified identity,
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: no background check, no safeguards. He rightly says, this is
• 22:17
  Speaker 1: your failure. You talk about accountability, yet you lack the
• 22:21
  Speaker 1: self-awareness that you show on this issue, and it's staggering.
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: The ongoing pattern of distraction and deflection reveals a refusal
• 22:30
  Speaker 1: to take responsibility for the real-world consequences of the policies
• 22:35
  Speaker 1: that you promote. And your silence and indifference are a
• 22:39
  Speaker 1: profound disrespect to my daughter and to a lifelong citizen
• 22:44
  Speaker 1: of Illinois, a grieving father still searching for answers, not
• 22:48
  Speaker 1: distractions or reframe narratives. You claim compassion, yet your policies
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: remove consequences for illegal entry while rewarding it with taxpayer dollars.
• 23:00
  Speaker 1: That's not compassion. That's hypocrisy. My parents came from the
• 23:05
  Speaker 1: third world. We understand accountability. You chose to ignore it.
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: You have never acknowledged Katie, not once. Say her name, Governor,
• 23:14
  Speaker 1: talking to J.B. Pritzker. Has he ever said her name?
• 23:17
  Speaker 11: Governor Pritzker has never said her name. So I just
• 23:20
  Speaker 11: started getting on social, Sean, to be honest. It's only
• 23:23
  Speaker 11: been a few weeks at Angel Dad Joe. But I
• 23:28
  Speaker 11: didn't know what to do. I have no record. They
• 23:30
  Speaker 11: won't even look at me.
• 23:32
  Speaker 12: So I..
• 23:33
  Speaker 11: Finally got on some social media to at least voice like, hello,
• 23:37
  Speaker 11: I'm still here. Your policies have wrecked my family and
• 23:43
  Speaker 11: took my youngest daughter away, and you think you can
• 23:46
  Speaker 11: just erase her and disrespect her?
• 23:49
  Speaker 4: I can't have that. You have zero compassion.
• 23:54
  Speaker 11: You're an arrogant, aloof, person that has no compassion and.
• 24:00
  Speaker 4: Shouldn't pretend like he does.
• 24:02
  Speaker 11: I can speak to this all day long as a
• 24:05
  Speaker 11: lifelong Illinois and Cook County resident, the two most corrupt
• 24:09
  Speaker 11: places in this nation. I'm sorry, California can't and Minnesota can't.
• 24:15
  Speaker 11: Illinois and Cook County and the way this governor's running things,
• 24:20
  Speaker 11: I've never seen anything like it. Even the old school
• 24:22
  Speaker 11: Democrats had some guardrails, not now, not at all.
• 24:27
  Speaker 1: With your level of outspokenness, I'm sure he's aware of
• 24:31
  Speaker 1: what you have written. I'm sure he's aware of what
• 24:34
  Speaker 1: you've said. They keep doubling down on their sanctuary state policies.
• 24:38
  Speaker 1: They double down on their incendiary, insightful rhetoric against ICE
• 24:44
  Speaker 1: and the Department of Homeland Security, which they don't want
• 24:47
  Speaker 1: to fund, just like they don't want to fund the police.
• 24:49
  Speaker 1: They want defund, dismantle, no bail laws. I mean, You know,
• 24:54
  Speaker 1: my only humble advice to you is I don't think
• 24:57
  Speaker 1: you will ever get satisfaction or even recognition from these
• 25:01
  Speaker 1: people in this state. I know you've lived there your
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: whole life. But, you know, as soon as you can
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: get out of there, I highly recommend you leave and
• 25:08
  Speaker 1: go to a state where they put a priority on
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: law enforcement.
• 25:11
  Speaker 4: Yeah, they put us in that position.
• 25:13
  Speaker 11: We are thinking about that because I don't see things
• 25:16
  Speaker 11: changing the way they ought to here in this state.
• 25:19
  Speaker 11: But think about how incoherent someone like a J.B. Pritzker
• 25:23
  Speaker 11: is or a Tammy Duckworth or a. Dick Dermott, let's
• 25:26
  Speaker 11: take J.B.
• 25:26
  Speaker 12: Pritzker.
• 25:27
  Speaker 11: He's out there, and I've been warning since Katie's death
• 25:30
  Speaker 11: that there's going to be other deaths, not only because
• 25:35
  Speaker 11: victims happen every day, they just don't die every day.
• 25:37
  Speaker 11: There are other types of victims. But I said there
• 25:40
  Speaker 11: was going to be more deaths. Then he Sheridan Gorman happens.
• 25:46
  Speaker 11: And he's out there saying, well, Donald Trump and ICE
• 25:48
  Speaker 11: didn't do their job when they were here.
• 25:50
  Speaker 4: Can you imagine how incoherent this is?
• 25:52
  Speaker 11: When they were here, he was calling them Gestapo, jackbooted thugs,
• 25:56
  Speaker 11: and secret police, and did everything they can to obstruct
• 26:00
  Speaker 11: these guys. And then after the fact, they said, well,
• 26:03
  Speaker 11: these guys didn't do the right job. So what are
• 26:05
  Speaker 11: you saying, Governor? Do you want the jackbooted thugs, Gestapo,
• 26:08
  Speaker 11: and special police back in the communities? And let's be clear,
• 26:12
  Speaker 11: This governor needed the chaos in the streets like they
• 26:15
  Speaker 11: did in Minnesota. Do you think they care a whit
• 26:18
  Speaker 11: about Renee Goode or Alex Pratt? Do you think they
• 26:22
  Speaker 11: wanted that incident so they could use an issue to
• 26:26
  Speaker 11: not only deflect from their failed policies, but to deflect
• 26:30
  Speaker 11: from the open borders? This is an indictment on every
• 26:33
  Speaker 11: single one of them if they acknowledge Katie. And that's
• 26:36
  Speaker 11: why I think they're not doing it. It's an indictment
• 26:39
  Speaker 11: on their hypocrisy. It's an indictment on their failed policies.
• 26:43
  Speaker 11: And it's an indictment on their arrogance, which they have
• 26:46
  Speaker 11: no humility towards service. And their ideology is a North Star, Sean.
• 26:52
  Speaker 11: And that's a failed life as far as I'm concerned.
• 26:54
  Speaker 11: In fact, you're a North Star.
• 26:56
  Speaker 1: Well, I applaud you for your willingness to be so
• 27:00
  Speaker 1: powerfully outspoken. I think every American needs to hear your voice.
• 27:05
  Speaker 1: is beyond praying for you, I know there's probably not
• 27:09
  Speaker 1: much people can do for you except try to be
• 27:12
  Speaker 1: there for you and try to comfort you. I've met
• 27:16
  Speaker 1: too many people in the course of my life and
• 27:19
  Speaker 1: my career, and I've got to tell you something, and
• 27:22
  Speaker 1: I don't want you to take this the wrong way.
• 27:25
  Speaker 1: The interviews that I dislike doing the most are often
• 27:29
  Speaker 1: the most important, and that is interviewing people like yourself.
• 27:33
  Speaker 1: that have lost children in cases like this that were
• 27:38
  Speaker 1: so preventable. I mean, I have a combination of reactions,
• 27:43
  Speaker 1: just deep sympathy and compassion and sadness for you and
• 27:49
  Speaker 1: also rage and anger within me that this was all preventable,
• 27:54
  Speaker 1: if that makes any sense to you.
• 27:56
  Speaker 4: That makes total sense. And we shouldn't be having this discussion.
• 28:00
  Speaker 11: And here's the one thing I'll tell you, as a
• 28:03
  Speaker 11: leader and someone who's going to be held to account,
• 28:07
  Speaker 11: he should talk to every victim his preventable policies have created. Now,
• 28:13
  Speaker 11: I'm not going to talk about, you know, people try
• 28:15
  Speaker 11: to deflect and say, Native Americans do more crime. Crime
• 28:20
  Speaker 11: happens every day. DUI drivers kill people, Americans, every day.
• 28:24
  Speaker 11: Why is this guy special? Why is Katie special? It's
• 28:27
  Speaker 11: a different set of circumstances. This is a person who
• 28:31
  Speaker 11: should have never been here. It's not a citizen. It
• 28:34
  Speaker 11: should have never happened. He should have never been here.
• 28:36
  Speaker 11: And the People like J.B. Pritzker's of the world encourage,
• 28:40
  Speaker 11: incentivize lawlessness. And he has no idea who he brought
• 28:45
  Speaker 11: in Illinois. Hundreds of thousands, for example, the guy who
• 28:48
  Speaker 11: killed Katie had HIV in our communities. Not a moral judgment.
• 28:53
  Speaker 11: I'm telling you, they didn't help anybody, not Katie or
• 28:56
  Speaker 11: this guy. They helped nobody.
• 28:58
  Speaker 1: Was this guy arrested multiple times before, like usually is
• 29:02
  Speaker 1: the case?
• 29:02
  Speaker 11: So the only thing I can get is that I
• 29:05
  Speaker 11: know he was pulled over or he was cited at
• 29:08
  Speaker 11: one point, but he skipped the court and he didn't
• 29:10
  Speaker 11: pay his fine. Eleanor would never follow her up. He
• 29:13
  Speaker 11: was using an alias, Sean. He had HIV in the community, Sean.
• 29:17
  Speaker 11: He had no formal education. He couldn't speak English, couldn't
• 29:21
  Speaker 11: speak Spanish, couldn't read or write. He spoke some French.
• 29:25
  Speaker 11: Mayan indigenous language from Guatemala called Kaichi.
• 29:28
  Speaker 4: We had trouble with translators. They keep coming back for
• 29:31
  Speaker 4: more money.
• 29:32
  Speaker 11: So my taxpayers not only supported the guy who killed Katie,
• 29:36
  Speaker 11: but now my tax dollars have to go support this
• 29:38
  Speaker 11: guy's defense and his health care and his incarceration this
• 29:43
  Speaker 11: governor is so incoherent in what he does and i
• 29:46
  Speaker 11: gotta be honest with you sean i think this is
• 29:48
  Speaker 11: coming from the national party i don't think he's much
• 29:51
  Speaker 11: of a Impressive person, a deep thinker. I think he
• 29:55
  Speaker 11: just kind of does what he's told from a national perspective,
• 29:58
  Speaker 11: and then they might promise him an opportunity in 2028.
• 30:02
  Speaker 11: I'm telling everyone right now, if anything ever happens in
• 30:05
  Speaker 11: this state, your state will turn its back against you.
• 30:09
  Speaker 11: And as a country, this is the worst run mismanaged
• 30:13
  Speaker 11: state in every perspective. You don't want this mismanagement of
• 30:17
  Speaker 11: Illinois into the White House. I promise you that.
• 30:20
  Speaker 1: Our prayers are with you and your family and for
• 30:24
  Speaker 1: beautiful Katie. She should be alive and you should be
• 30:29
  Speaker 1: a happy, proud dad. And I wish I had greater
• 30:33
  Speaker 1: words of comfort that I could give you. I'm so
• 30:36
  Speaker 1: sorry you had to go through all of this. And
• 30:38
  Speaker 1: I'm sorry that so many other families have had to
• 30:40
  Speaker 1: go through this. And I'm sad that I'm one of
• 30:43
  Speaker 1: the few people that actually highlight this. The whole media
• 30:46
  Speaker 1: should be highlighting it. That would make it stop. But
• 30:49
  Speaker 1: they choose not to. And they never will either.
• 30:53
  Speaker 11: No. And what they don't comprehend and what they don't
• 30:55
  Speaker 11: consider is now I've got this tension between my longevity, Sean.
• 31:00
  Speaker 11: I once thought I would live long enough to see
• 31:02
  Speaker 11: my kids grow and their children. I have this tension now.
• 31:05
  Speaker 11: I've got two living kids. Hopefully they will stay that
• 31:08
  Speaker 11: way in Illinois. And then I've got one who was
• 31:10
  Speaker 11: killed and buried. I have this tension. If I don't
• 31:14
  Speaker 11: have longevity, I'm fine. I'm going to go see reunite,
• 31:17
  Speaker 11: reunite with Katie. If I do, then I can see
• 31:19
  Speaker 11: my other two kids. This is a position Illinois put
• 31:22
  Speaker 11: me in. It's disgusting.
• 31:24
  Speaker 4: And I'm, I'm just, I don't even.
• 31:26
  Speaker 1: Know what to say. We'll pray for your longevity because
• 31:28
  Speaker 1: we need powerful voices like yours to champion those that
• 31:31
  Speaker 1: can't champion themselves. Our prayers are with you. Joe Abraham,
• 31:37
  Speaker 1: you and your family, please know that this audience cares
• 31:40
  Speaker 1: and we we are sad about the story. We appreciate
• 31:43
  Speaker 1: your courage in telling the story and also warning everybody
• 31:46
  Speaker 1: about the likes of J.B. Pritzker. But there's plenty of J.B.
• 31:50
  Speaker 1: Pritzker's out there. One is Gavin Newsom. One is Tim Walls.
• 31:55
  Speaker 1: You know, another would be in New York and New
• 31:57
  Speaker 1: York City. And, you know, Marxist Kami Mamdani. I mean,
• 32:01
  Speaker 1: it's just they're all over the place. They make this
• 32:04
  Speaker 1: world less safe, less secure. They don't have law and order.
• 32:08
  Speaker 1: And if they ever get more power, the country, frankly,
• 32:12
  Speaker 1: is screwed. Because what they did to this country, the
• 32:14
  Speaker 1: four years of Biden, Harris, Mayorkas, is unforgivable to me.
• 32:18
  Speaker 1: And they have blood on their hands. I blame them. Anyway,
• 32:22
  Speaker 1: my friend, God bless you and God bless your family.
• 32:25
  Speaker 12: Thank you.

  Speaker 1: All right, let's get to our busy telephones here. Let

  Speaker 1: us say hello to Ken in Georgia. Ken, hi, how
• 34:32
  Speaker 1: are you? Glad you called, sir.
• 34:34
  Speaker 12: Hi, there is a privilege to talk to you today.
• 34:37
  Speaker 12: Thank you very much.
• 34:38
  Speaker 1: The pleasure is all mine.
• 34:41
  Speaker 12: Well, about the Strait of Hormuz and Iran over there,
• 34:44
  Speaker 12: I have to wonder if we could, the USA, could
• 34:48
  Speaker 12: call upon the GCC, the Gulf countries, to take some
• 34:51
  Speaker 12: kind of action to restrain Iran in the maritime waters
• 34:55
  Speaker 12: of the Gulf. The GCC might be able to make
• 34:58
  Speaker 12: a change on the territorial waters over there and push
• 35:02
  Speaker 12: the Iranian boundary all the way over to the Iranian shoreline.
• 35:06
  Speaker 12: Make the whole Gulf... Maritime waters of the GCC. You know,
• 35:11
  Speaker 12: Trump has already mentioned taking Karg Island, and I think
• 35:15
  Speaker 12: that that move would be bad optics in the rest
• 35:18
  Speaker 12: of the world. But what if we assisted the GCC
• 35:22
  Speaker 12: to do that? If the GCC did it, it might
• 35:25
  Speaker 12: pass the muster in the optics of the rest of
• 35:27
  Speaker 12: the world. You know, Iran's already fired.
• 35:31
  Speaker 1: There might be a component that involves Cargill, and there
• 35:34
  Speaker 1: might be a component where the U.S. somehow would help
• 35:40
  Speaker 1: the international waterways in the Strait. However, I think the
• 35:44
  Speaker 1: president is pretty committed to no forever wars. However, I
• 35:49
  Speaker 1: know the president, when it comes to other countries paying
• 35:53
  Speaker 1: for their liberation, he's all for it. And the Iranians, frankly,
• 35:57

• 36:05
  Speaker 1: reparations from us. No, they owe us the money. But
• 36:09
  Speaker 1: putting all of that aside, I think the president's going
• 36:12
  Speaker 1: to achieve his objectives, whatever remaining things that he might
• 36:16
  Speaker 1: want to accomplish. That will be up to him based
• 36:20
  Speaker 1: on obvious intelligence. and the national security importance of whatever
• 36:25
  Speaker 1: mission that he decides we have to be involved in.
• 36:27
  Speaker 1: And I have faith and confidence he'll make the right decision.
