Latest / Cultural Wars | America Out Loud News / News Overload! Immigrants, arms, and incompetence
Transcript
- 0:11Helping to secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity.
- 0:15This is the Constitution Study on the America Out Loud Network with your host, Paul Engel.
- 0:31There's no one unifying theme for today's episode.
- 0:35Instead, I have three different themes, one for each segment.
- 0:39Immigrants, arms, and incompetence.
- 0:42Hello there, everyday Americans.
- 0:43Paul Engle here with the Constitution Study, where we read and study the Constitution, teacher Ison Generation be freaking glad you could join me today.
- 0:50Again, this is three topics that I found.
- 0:54And I just thought, well, let's take some time for each one.
- 0:55We're going to start with immigrants.
- 0:57In the latest news, the niece and grandniece of the now deceased Islamic Revolutionary Guard major general Qassam Salomani were arrested by federal agents after Secretary of State Marco Rubio terminated their green card, their legal lawful permanent resident status.
- 1:20Now that may sound like a big deal, but there's what led to this is really rather interesting.
- 1:28So while living in the United States, this niece of the uh Salomani promoted the Iranian regime propaganda, celebrated attacks against American soldiers and military facilities in the Middle East, praised the new Iran Iranian Supreme leader, denounced America as a great Satan and voiced your unflinching support for the Islamic Revolutionary Guard, a designated terror organization.
- 1:54Now, uh, okay, uh, we do have freedom of speech in this country, but if you're a visitor here, do you get to put out such denigrating information?
- 2:04But wait, there's more.
- 2:07Uh, not reported in in at least all them's media is the fact that um this grandniece of the general of the Islamic Revolutionary Guards, um, she entered the country in 2015, claiming she political asylum.
- 2:28Uh, she she claimed that she was she feared for her life and that of her daughter, even though she was the um again, remember the the niece and grandniece of the uh yeah, the leader of the of the revolutionary guard, the uh general and so on.
- 2:48So was she really afraid for her life, or was she just trying to get her and her daughter into the United States?
- 2:54Now she applied for asylum in she came in on a tourist visa visa in 2015, claimed asylum, was granted asylum in 2019, and then became a green card holder in 2021.
- 3:10Then in 2000 in July of last year, 2025, she filed an application to become a U.S.
- 3:17citizen.
- 3:19And during which she declose disclosed the fact that she had traveled to Iran at least four times since she received her green card in 2019.
- 3:30Now, this pretty much shows that her claim of asylum were fraudulent.
- 3:36I mean, let's face it, if you're afraid to go back to the country of your nationality because you're afraid you're gonna get killed, you don't voluntarily go back to the country of your of your citizenship because you're afraid you're gonna get killed.
- 3:52So the fact that she went back shows that this was a fraudulent claim for asylum, which of course was never properly investigated.
- 4:00I mean, why would we expect that to be investigated, especially by the Biden administration, which is more than happy to have illegal immigrants, including people of uh uh uh of terrorist uh countries and to this, yeah, sure, no problem whatsoever.
- 4:16But there's a bit more.
- 4:18So she applied for citizenship, right?
- 4:22But part of the citizenship uh application, when you take your oath of allegiance, you foreswear any allegiance to another country.
- 4:34But her very words and statements show that she would not forswear her um her allegiance to the Islamic Republic.
- 4:45She promoted both the regime and its propaganda.
- 4:49She seems she wants to join the United States, but she celebrates attacks against our soldiers and military facilities in the Middle East.
- 4:57She praised the supreme leader.
- 5:00She calls this nation the great Satan, but she wants to become a citizen.
- 5:04Or does she but why?
- 5:06Then the question is, why does she want to become a citizen?
- 5:08She obviously is not alleging herself to the United States.
- 5:12She's not forswearing any other uh allegiance to another nation, which means I would say that her citizenship application is fraudulent.
- 5:23And then people wonder why we're concerned about illegal aliens.
- 5:27This is a granted, it's an bit of an extreme example, but it's an example of the dangers of this lax immigration policy that has been part of this country for decades, by the way.
- 5:39This is not all Biden's fault.
- 5:41This has been going on for decades.
- 5:43She and her and her knee and her daughter, the niece and grandniece.
- 5:47Um, they were never properly vetted.
- 5:49They came here on a tourist visa.
- 5:51Hey, you want to come here as a tourist?
- 5:53Come here, do your tourism, go home.
- 5:55She overstayed her tourism by quite requesting asylum.
- 5:59That never should have been granted.
- 6:01What is your credible fear of retribution if you um if you're more than one to go back?
- 6:09She gets her green card and she goes back.
- 6:12So that means her asylum was request, was obviously fraudulent.
- 6:16And now the big thing, oh, you mean Secretary of State took away her green card?
- 6:20Yes.
- 6:20Her daughter's green card?
- 6:22Yes.
- 6:23Because these were fraudulent claims.
- 6:26And her desire for citizenship apparently was also fraudulent because either she was not, she doesn't appear to be aligned with the United States, and she doesn't appear to have been to forsworn her allegiance to Iran.
- 6:37But that's not the only example of craziness with aliens with immigration.
- 6:44You see, two legal aliens uh in Fairfax County, Virginia, play guilty to murder.
- 6:51Um, and were now have gotten a sweetheart plea deal.
- 6:57Now, the Fairfax County Commonwealth attorney, a Steve uh Discano, uh uh appears to be playing politics with this.
- 7:07You see, the the the this is a Virginia's a sanctuary state, and uh apparently he just loves giving deals to aliens.
- 7:15You see, the first alien Abdul Jalo, I believe is his name, uh, accused of murder, suspected of murder.
- 7:22Uh, he's an illegal alien, so he broke the law to get into the country.
- 7:25He has a long criminal history, and um he was free on some sort of release at the time of the murder.
- 7:35Yet Descanto's office ignored all of those warnings to give him a sweetheart deal.
- 7:41Now, these two gentlemen could have been convicted and sentenced if they were convicted in trial, could have faced up to 40 years in prison.
- 7:51What did they get as a deal?
- 7:54Five years with parole after three years.
- 7:59You have a person with a long criminal history, accused of murder, facing again, 40 years in jail, the minimum 25 years in jail, and he's gonna get out in three because the Commonwealth attorney spun him a deal.
- 8:16When you're talking about sanctuary cities, in this case a sanctuary state, um, I don't think that's what most people think of, but that's apparently what's going on in Virginia.
- 8:29In fact, uh Discano's website even declares that it's a perversion of justice.
- 8:34If a criminal who's an illegal alien is deported, but a criminal who's a U.S.
- 8:39citizen gets to stay in the country.
- 8:42Uh uh I'm I'm sorry, there is a distinction between a criminal that's an illegal alien, you committed a crime to enter the country.
- 8:48You are eligible for deportation.
- 8:50If you're a citizen, where the heck are they gonna deport you to?
- 8:53This is your country.
- 8:55The United States is not gonna deport someone to the United States.
- 8:59But this again, this is the insanity we see from some of the so much of the sanctuary cities, literally elevating people who broke the law to enter this country above citizens of the United States.
- 9:14Now, is this okay?
- 9:16Do you live in Virginia?
- 9:17Is this what you signed up for?
- 9:19Did you vote for um for Mr.
- 9:23Discano to hold the Fairfax County uh attorney, uh Commonwealth attorney?
- 9:30Did you vote for if not?
- 9:31Let me ask you, would you vote for him again?
- 9:33Is he up for election this year?
- 9:35Are you gonna let people know that this is his idea of justice, giving uh alleged murderers sweetheart deals?
- 9:42You know, instead of 25 years in jail, up to 40 years in jail.
- 9:46No, we'll just give you five and we'll let you out in three.
- 9:55Because this doesn't seem to be justice to me.
- 9:58Now, maybe I'm wrong.
- 10:00Maybe there are other circumstances I'm not aware of, but based on what I've read so far, this seems more about uh uh the Commonwealth attorney trying to make national news by going soft on illegal aliens rather than you know actually doing his job of seeking justice for the people of Fairfax County for upholding the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia and Fairfax County for uh fulfilling his oath to support the Constitution, the both of the Commonwealth of Virginia and the United States.
- 10:35Do you really want a chief prosecutor, which is what the Commonwealth Attorney is?
- 10:41Do you want a that's more interested in politics than the law?
- 10:46That's more interested in making headlines than justice for the victims.
- 10:52Because that's what it looks like.
- 10:55Now I'm wondering, in Mr.
- 10:58Desgano's history, has he offered similar deals to alleged murderers who were citizens of the United States, or is it only the illegal aliens that get such a deal?
- 11:11Remember, the the murder that was one of these was accused of murdering somebody, stabbing them to death, stabbing their victim to death on a bus.
- 11:21And this is idea of justice.
- 11:24See, this is why our confusion about immigration is so damaging.
- 11:31Now, again, I have I do have issues with federal immigration law.
- 11:36Mainly the fact that the Constitution doesn't delegate to the United States um the power to regulate immigration.
- 11:43They don't control they Congress can make laws about naturalization, not immigration.
- 11:49Those are two separate things.
- 11:53And when you look at the fact that, well, the federal government has been um, well, I almost go criminally corrupt, but they've certainly been, they've certainly failed when it comes to immigration.
- 12:02Now, should immigration be a nationwide policy, not a statewide policy.
- 12:08I believe there's arguments for that.
- 12:11But the problem is we haven't had those discussions.
- 12:13We haven't had those arguments.
- 12:15That idea has not been presented to the states for ratification.
- 12:20That means the law says the 10th Amendment, a power not delegated to the United States is reserved to the states.
- 12:26That means immigration's a state power.
- 12:29Now that means if states want to be this stupid, they have a right to.
- 12:51One of the problems we have is the people misunderstanding the um uh recognizing of other state legal actions.
- 13:00If Virginia wants to allow people to come into their rules for entering the state, well, then when that person comes into to say Tennessee, Tennessee has its own rules.
- 13:15And they may say, well, listen, you have to did you enter legally.
- 13:21That's why I think that confusion means this probably should be set at the national level.
- 13:26But for that to legally happen, we have to have a constitutional amendment, which is very important because we can set the limits and the boundaries upon which the government can regulate immigration.
- 13:38Right?
- 13:39It gets it allows us to put that fence, that limited enumerator power fence around the federal government and its actions when it comes to immigration.
- 13:48But we're more interested in spending time playing politics with these questions of sanct, quote unquote sanctuary cities and states that say we're not going to bother with with the law.
- 13:58We'll just let anybody come in and then complain and ask the federal government for help when they have problems.
- 14:06And uh, you know, whether it's, you know, hey, you let these people in, they're, you know, you didn't really vet them properly.
- 14:13You're pushing them through towards citizenship, but you never actually saw that were these people eligible.
- 14:21And then at the state level, hey, we're gonna give sweetheart deals.
- 14:24You're in legal alien.
- 14:24Wouldn't you just I want the people of Virginia of especially of uh Fairfax County, Virginia, to go down to this gentleman's office to Mr.
- 14:35Descano's office.
- 14:37Explain to me why you're giving such a sweetheart deal to such criminals.
- 14:42They committed a crime, a federal crime by entering the country.
- 14:45They're accused of crime of murder.
- 14:47Why would you give them a sweetheart deal?
- 14:49Oh, well, I don't know.
- 14:50Maybe it's because they don't think they've got a great chance.
- 14:53I don't know what the answer is.
- 14:55But this gentleman, this Steve Descano, needs to be confronted by the citizens he represents and explain to them why he gave he offered such a sweetheart deal to these uh oh, granted, alleged murderers, but apparently, in at least one case, convicted illegal alien.
- 15:16Now, I have to hang on a second because I do have a uh uh a break coming up.
- 15:22Uh, then I'll pick up my second topic of the day, which is arms.
- 15:27Now, before I go, you know, I saw this interesting report that claims that up to 85% of the nutrients our body needs that we used to get from our food, doesn't come from our food anymore.
- 15:39It's literally been farmed out of the soil, so it's not in our fruits and vegetables.
- 15:44Now, a lot of people look at this and say, well, then uh uh, you know, we'll just take a lot of supplements, right?
- 15:49And a lot of people they don't like taking handful of pills.

- 19:45Welcome back, everyday American Jewry join the Constitution study.
- 19:49And uh today, again, we're looking at immigrants, autos, and incompetence.
- 19:53Uh we did immigrants in the first segment, so this is the segment on arms, and we're actually going to head out to the
- 20:00U.S.
- 20:00Attorney's Office for the District of Columbia and the U.S.
- 20:05attorney, Janine Piero.
- 20:07Now, she is asking the DC Court of Appeals to conduct an on bank hearing because she didn't like the decision of a three-judge panel.
- 20:19You see, that the district, the three judge panel of the court said that DC's ban on quote unquote large capacity magazines is unconstitutional.
- 20:29In other words, they actually looked at the language of the second amendment and said it says the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed unless it's a big scary magazine or some other thing that you know people made up later in the day.
- 20:44That means the U.S.
- 20:46attorney for the District of Columbia is the same anti-gun uh attorney that we see from all these anti-gun groups, even from anti-gun attorneys general that we've seen in the past, and that we see in states all across the nation.
- 21:02She defended the district's gun registration requirements, arguing that um the panel's decision could put an end to prosecutions for possessing an unregistered firearm or carrying without a license.
- 21:15Yes.
- 21:17In other words, the second amendment means exactly what it says.
- 21:21The Supreme Law of the Land supersedes a district uh regulation, which by the way, is not law.
- 21:31Remember, the Constitution says that the Congress has the power to make laws for the District of Columbia.
- 21:38Article 1, Section 8, clause, I think a 16 says to exercise exclusive legislation in all cases whatsoever over such district, not exceeding 10 miles square, as may by the secession of particular states and acceptance of Congress become the seat of the government of the United States.
- 21:57Congress has exclusive legislative power over the District of Columbia.
- 22:03So these rules and regulations, unless they're crass like they're not laws.
- 22:09And if Congress did pass this law, well, that law would have been made not pursuant to the Constitution.
- 22:15And as we all know, under Article 6, Clause 2, this Constitution and the laws of the United States, which shall be made in pursuance thereof and all treaties made which shall be made under the authority of the United States shall be the Supreme Law of the Land.
- 22:29So yeah, uh Ms.
- 22:31Pyrot, um this is really about following the Constitution.
- 22:36You mean we won't be able to prosecute people for for their for having an unregistered firearm?
- 22:41Yes.
- 22:42For for carrying without a license?
- 22:45Yes.
- 22:45Why?
- 22:46Because the Constitution says it's all right.
- 22:49You don't need the government's permission to own a firearm.
- 22:52You don't need the government's permission to carry a firearm.
- 22:56Uh, Mr.
- 22:58President, um, you recently fired uh your attorney general.
- 23:02I suggest you fire the U.S.
- 23:03attorney for the District of Columbia because she's apparently not willing to fill her oath to support the Constitution of the United States.
- 23:12Now, the plaintiff in this case of Benson versus the United States filed their own countermotion, claiming that uh appellant Tyreene Benson through counsel respectfully moves to strike the United States response to the District of Columbia petition for an to rehearing on Bonk.
- 23:29The response is actually a petition for a rehearing on Bonk and therefore untimely under DC regulations.
- 23:38In the alternative, if this court excuses the untimeliness of the United States request for rehearing on Bonk, it should afford appellant an opportunity to respond to the United States pleading, which was filed on the same day as the appellant response to the district's petition was due and makes argument that the district did not make in his position.
- 23:55In other words, listen, they didn't do it on time, so you shouldn't listen to it.
- 23:59If you're gonna excuse their tardiness, well, you have to give us an opportunity to respond because they filed in such a way that we didn't get an opportunity to respond to many of their, including their claims that we didn't that we made, but uh that we they they claim we made that we did not make.
- 24:15But yes, even in the federal district of Columbia, we have a U.S.
- 24:20attorney who, well, rather like the uh the county uh commonwealth attorney in Fairfax, Virginia.
- 24:26Apparently, it's not worried about the law, the constitution, any of those things.
- 24:30Oh my God, we'd have to actually, we would we'd end prosecutions that would violate the Constitution of the United States.
- 24:36How dare you say that we we do that?
- 24:39Yeah.
- 24:40Meanwhile, in the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals, uh, they're taking a look at the federal switchblade act.
- 24:47Did you know there's a federal switchblade back?
- 24:49I want to remind you that the second amendment says the right of the people to keep and bear arms.
- 24:55We tend to focus on firearms, but it's not just firearms, it is other arms, which Webster's 1820 dictionary uh 1828 dictionary defines as weapons of offense and armor for defense of the body.
- 25:07And and so um it's a weapon.
- 25:11Now, part of this federal switchblade act prohibits the possession of switchblade knives on federal land, such as national parks, land managed by the Bureau of Land Management, and uh defined Indian country.
- 25:25Now, this was heard by a three-judge panel of the Fifth Circuit, and according to reports, it seems they were originally skeptical of the uh uh uh relief sought by knife rights, a group of you've got gun rights, these are people looking for knife rights.
- 25:40They they question the attorney very heavily on the the the his application to the challenge.
- 25:47They even questioned, you know, how much of a threat is this to to the plaintiff or to the public at large.
- 25:55But as Mr.
- 25:56uh Schumacher pointed out, uh this uh because the Your Honor, the one important aspect of this is that the government doesn't disavow enforcement.
- 26:06This is not a statute that's never been enforced and has gone into you know disuse.
- 26:11I mean, they enforce it when they want to enforce it from time to time.
- 26:15They enforce it, they enforced it against uh Spiderco.
- 26:18I have no idea who this Spider Co.
- 26:20is.
- 26:21Now, as I said, it seemed like the the court may be leaning against uh knife rights, but uh they did say that their attorney did a great job and uh we'll have to wait and see how the court actually decides the case.
- 26:32But again, when we're talking about violations of the First Amendment, we are not only talking about firearms.
- 26:39We're not only talking about magazines, we're not only talking about prohibitions or you know prohibition against the right to keep and bear arms not based in due process, meaning if someone's adjudicated a uh a felon that would make of especially a violent felon.
- 26:56Yes, that would make it that would make sense, but simply saying no, you can't because the government says so is a direct violation of the second amendment, the Supreme Law of the Land, saying that you know you're not allowed to have a magazine, which is part of the arm, it's part of the firearm, a violation of the second amendment, and uh we'll have to wait to see what DCE circuit court says.
- 27:16And then when it comes to the knives, and again, for those of you who may not be familiar, you know, people carry knives for a lot of reasons.
- 27:24One of which is knives don't jam, right?
- 27:28They generally don't.
- 27:29I don't know about a switchblade, I've never played much with switchblades, but guess what?
- 27:32You know, a firearm can jam.
- 27:35Sometimes you need something else.
- 27:36And people are saying, yes, this is this is my self-defense weapon.
- 27:40It's my self-defense arm, just the same as this firearm is.
- 27:44It is an arm as defined by uh common language uh in the time of the adoption of the Bill of Rights.
- 27:52Um it's an arm.
- 27:53Why does it not get the same protection?
- 27:55Because the Second Amendment doesn't have an accept clause.
- 28:00Now, the Fifth Amendment has an accept clause, meaning you can be deprived of the property you have in your rights via due process of law, that process to protect your rights in general.
- 28:10But it's not in the second amendment.
- 28:12So you can't make an exception because of the the uh the size of the magazine or the uh the fact that you may not like that that you have a really bad image of switch blades.
- 28:25The law is the law.
- 28:26And if you want to do it, if you want to change it, you actually have to change the law.
- 28:30You can't just make stuff up as you go along.
- 28:34But this one, again, this one comes out of New York City, and this one, I loved the title.
- 28:38Uh it comes from bearing arms.
- 28:41And it says, uh, turns out ignorance of the law is an excuse, at least if you're NYPD.
- 28:47Now again, New York prosecutors routinely charge and put people in prison for simply carrying a firearm without a New York concealed carry permit.
- 28:58By the way, it is difficult to get.
- 29:00I used to live in New York State.
- 29:02It's difficult to get a concealed carry permit.
- 29:05When I got mine back up in New York State, I had to pay, I think it was $10 to buy an application.
- 29:10Yes, to buy an application.
- 29:13I had to go through uh basically it was a uh a modified hunter safety course, or it's basically a gun safety course where they talked a bit about handgun laws in New York State.
- 29:24And uh I had to, I had to provide uh three character references that lived in the same county as me, but were not related to me by blood or marriage.
- 29:34And I had to provide self-addressed stamped envelopes so that they could send them a questionnaire to see if I was of good character or not.
- 29:40And then I had to wait.
- 29:42It was like almost nine months before I got a letter that said, okay, we've approved your license.
- 29:47We're not gonna give you your license.
- 29:49You've approved it, you can now go buy a gun where you can't actually buy the gun, you can pay for the gun and then come back to the court to make sure that the judge approves of you buying that gun.
- 29:59And
- 30:00By the way, all of that was not valid in New York City.
- 30:04Right?
- 30:05Even at my state concealed carrier said it everywhere except New York City.
- 30:11So here's an interest.
- 30:12We have a lawsuit by a Rafik Khan, an Army veteran and legal gun owner who possessed both a premises permit and a concealed carry license.
- 30:22Meaning in New York City, you need a permit to have a gun on your premises.
- 30:28You also need a permit to uh a separate concealed carry license to carry that weapon in public.
- 30:35Now, Mr.
- 30:36Khan was out celebrating his mother's 70th birthday with family.
- 30:40Congratulations, Mr.
- 30:41Khan's mom.
- 30:42Um, but he realized that they were going to be in what New York law calls a sensitive place.
- 30:50So what did he do?
- 30:51Well, he did what all law-abiding gun owners and and and uh he went back to store his firearm in his car.
- 31:00Now, according to reports from the the opinion, the judge's opinion says at some point the police intelligence division was tipped off that someone matching plaintiff's subscription was in possession of a firearm, tried to enter the eatery, and then put the firearm in the glove box of a blue BMW.
- 31:17Shortly thereafter, officer Hughes was briefed on the situation and left with officers Benson and Nicholson to investigate.
- 31:24The officers located the blue BMW, ran the license plate, and determined that the car belonged to the plaintiff.
- 31:31The officers then searched plaintiff's name through the various databases and learn that the plaintiff had a business carry firearm license.
- 31:38Now that phrase business carry license comes from the fact that in New York State, especially at the time, you had to show just cause.
- 31:47In other words, it wasn't assumed you you were going to carry a gun because you could.
- 31:52You had to have a really good reason for it, especially in New York City.
- 31:56And one of them was, well, I need to carry it for my business.
- 32:00Apparently, that's how he he he got it.
- 32:03But again, uh, they they they noticed that he um uh it was that term was changed to conceal carry, but they knew he was licensed to carry.
- 32:12They searched the police database, it was licensed to carry.
- 32:15Going back to the uh the opinion.
- 32:17Apparently, none of the officers on the scene knew what a business carry firearm license was.
- 32:21After turning to the internet, the officers had even less clarity.
- 32:24Even so, the officers continued watching and eventually saw plaintiff and two others leave the eatery and sit in the blue BMW for about half an hour.
- 32:33After plaintiffs began to drive away, the officers initiated a traffic stop.
- 32:38Now, even though Mr.
- 32:39Khan immediately and proactively informed the officers that he had a pistol in his glove box, he was still arrested for supposedly criminal possession of a weapon, even though he had a license to carry that weapon.
- 32:52And if it's still the same way as it was when I had New York State, his license specifically listed that weapon by make model and serial number on his license.
- 33:03Mr.
- 33:03Kahn spent the night in jail and was arraigned the next day.
- 33:06Um, and it was after his arraignment that the New York police licensing division started investigating Khan's arrest.
- 33:14But rather than informing the officers and the court that they had charged a guy with a valid carry permit for carrying without a permit, they ordered that Mr.
- 33:24Khan surrender his license and all of his firearms simply because he was illegally arrested for illegally possessing a gun that he had both license and permission to carry.
- 33:37But you gotta hear this one.
- 33:39He said the officers independently corroborated every piece of information that the informant gave except the location of the firearm inside the vehicle, which is not what he was charged with.
- 33:50The judge said that's sufficient to establish probable cause to believe the uncorroborated information, i.e., that the plaintiff stored his farm in his glove box, which apparently is a violation of some New York penal code.
- 34:04So let me ask you.
- 34:06You live in, if you live in New York, you have a license, you follow everything, but you didn't store it properly.
- 34:12They don't charge you, they never charged him for storing.
- 34:14They charged him for being carrying a weapon without a uh being possession of a gun without a license.
- 34:18When he had a license, they had proved he had a license.
- 34:21And when they couldn't know what the term business license meant, rather than talling the supervisor, they googled it.
- 34:29Talk about ignorance of the law.
- 34:32And it was Mr.
- 34:33Khan that paid the price.
- 34:41I'd like to see criminal charges.
- 34:44Because if you have again, remember, these officers, they they looked at the license plate.
- 34:48They found his name.
- 34:50They found out he had a license to carry a firearm.
- 34:52They didn't understand the particular type of license, but they didn't bother to verify that.
- 34:57Where is on what do you hang qualified immunity?
- 35:01You have a person licensed to carry a firearm that is in possession of a firearm, and you're gonna that is false arrest, ladies and gentlemen.
- 35:09I mean, what's next?
- 35:11They see him driving down the road.
- 35:13He produces a driver's license, but they don't like the driver's license because it says it's a it's it's some you know driver's card.
- 35:21So they arrest him for it, could drive without a license.
- 35:24This is this is the craziness that comes on.
- 35:27And it's one of the reasons why qualified immunity and the idea that the police are always right, is not only stupid, but it's incredibly dangerous.
- 35:36Okay, I got one more segment to come before I go, you know.
- 35:40I I talk about these places a lot, you know, I was I quoted from Bearing Arms.

- 40:11Welcome back, everyday Americans have rejoined the Constitution study.
- 40:15We talked about uh uh well what do you know?
- 40:17We talked about immigrants, we talked about arms.
- 40:19Now it's talk about incompetence.
- 40:22And oh, this story is I don't know if it's simply incompetence.
- 40:27So the uh Obama Presidential Center is uh getting ready to open.
- 40:31I guess they're opening this summer.
- 40:33And um they have a great deal.
- 40:36See, if you live in Illinois, you get free admission on Tuesdays, at least according to ABC 7 in Chicago.
- 40:45So rather than paying the $30 for adults and $23 for uh uh you know, 12 and older, you get in free just because you're a resident of Illinois, but you actually have to have proof of Illinois residents to get that free admission.
- 41:01I actually laugh at this because isn't this the same group that is fighting tooth and nail against the Save Act?
- 41:08The one constitutional aspect of that act is Congress saying, listen, to vote in elections for house or Senate, you must provide a valid photo ID.
- 41:18Now, according to again, the Obama Presidential Center, it's a private organization.
- 41:24They have every right to demand ID, they have every right to set the pricing however they want.
- 41:29They have every right to say if you want special pricing for resident pricing, you have to show you're a resident.
- 41:35I'm not saying anything they're doing is wrong.
- 41:39I just find it uh humorous, shall we say?
- 41:42Um an example of their ridiculous positions that say uh, you know, you don't have to, you have to prove who you are to get free entrance into the into the presidential center into the museum, but not to vote.
- 41:59To me, that's just you know, I mean, that's just kind of the way it's there's nothing wrong with what the presidential center is doing.
- 42:07Nothing whatsoever.
- 42:08I just find it an example of the okay for me, but not for the mentality when it comes to things like oh proof of who you are, an ID, showing an ID.
- 42:20It's a it's a constitutional infringement to require an ID to vote, but not to gain access to a museum.
- 42:28And that's just another example of the crazy nonsense that's been going on.
- 42:32Okay, let's get back to New York City for a minute.
- 42:35Uh so New York City has a uh how has what they called New York City Housing Authority.
- 42:41It is um, well, they were on their landlords, right?
- 42:46And I will tell you, I don't know if it was a housing authority at the time.
- 42:48When I was a small child, we lived in in the projects.
- 42:52We lived in in the housing authority's apartments.
- 42:55And um, well, let's just say people are starting to question how good, I mean, they're not exactly known for being good landlords.
- 43:05The average wait time for non-emergency repair uh in a New York City housing authority apartment is around 449 days.
- 43:16Meaning, if there's a problem in your apartment that is not considered an emergency, you got to wait about a year and a quarter before anybody shows up to deal with the problem.
- 43:27At the same time, this agency has at least 74 executives that get paid 200,000 or more a year, and 104 member of their upper management that gets 140,000 a year, meaning there's 22 million dollars between the executives and the upper management for an agency that um guess what can't get a refrigerator repaired or an air conditioning repaired or something like that in under a year and a quarter.
- 44:03The CEO of the NYCHA, Lisa Bova Hyatt, she pulls down uh just under 400,000, 399,999 a year, 400 grand for an agency that um that can't uh uh get can't even do basic.
- 44:24It put it this way if a if it was a private apartment building, I bet you the New York City would be all over them if it took a year and a quarter to get basic maintenance done.
- 44:35And oh, by the way, the VP for legal affairs at the NYCHA, David Rhode, he makes over $300, $300,000 a year.
- 44:45It seems to be a great paying job to be an executive at an incompetent city agency.
- 44:51Now, New York City has an interesting history with slum lords.
- 44:56The slum lords are those, you know, you they they collect the rent, but they don't do the work.
- 45:01And we have this image, this this picture, right, of overcrowded, run-down buildings that uh uh, you know, not maintained.
- 45:10And uh uh, you know, again, people, you know, yeah, there's a problem in the apartment, there's a problem with the plumbing, a problem with the appliances, and you know, the slum lord ignores them.
- 45:21That kind of sounds like it describes the New York City Housing Authority at this point.
- 45:26Yet their executives are pulling down big, big books.
- 45:30And by the way, those books are your taxpayer dollars if you live in New York City.
- 45:35Uh, according to one activist that says they turn public housing into a new hustle with residents and afterthought.
- 45:41Rather than saying, let uh let me not take a raise so the money can go back and fixing the infrastructure.
- 45:47They're live well, they're they so that they live in uh the living conditions have basic dignity.
- 45:52In other words, hey, we're not worried.
- 45:54Let them let them deal with their problems.
- 45:56I get my paycheck.
- 45:58They're getting raises while they're incompetent.
- 46:01But then again, this is a city authority, meaning it's run by the city of New York, which means, hey, uh, Mr.
- 46:09Randami, um, why are executives at this agency where they can't give basic housing?
- 46:15You're always talking about basing housing.
- 46:17You're talking about lowering the rent.
- 46:19You're talking about all these things.
- 46:21How about your own housing authority actually maintain the buildings and apartments that they own already?
- 46:29Let's how about you cut some of these executive salaries in half and use that money to fix the apartments that the people actually pay to live in.
- 46:39Nah, if you're if you're waiting for that, uh uh, don't hold your breath.
- 46:45Okay, one more here.
- 46:46And this is a there's a little different.
- 46:48So uh state farm insurance.
- 46:50And this is something I want to warn you about because uh uh uh you may be you maybe may be worried about this.
- 46:57Um they have come to an agreement to renew the insurance of a Santa Ana homeowner after the state state farm used drones to spy on her house.
- 47:12Now, this lady, uh Linda Bennett received a letter from State Farm warning her that her homeowner's policy would be canceled unless she replaced her roof.
- 47:22Something estimated cost between 20 and 50,000.
- 47:27I don't have that kind of money.
- 47:29But here's where the dispute came from.
- 47:32You see, more and more insurers are using drones, aerial photography, and uh in some cases, artificial intelligence to evaluate properties.
- 47:42And this is how Ms.
- 47:43Bennett suspects her roof came under scrutiny.
- 47:47Uh she said, uh, when I got the notice, I thought to myself, nobody came out, nobody called and said we need to inspect your roof for our policy.
- 47:56She goes, I just got that saying that I had to get a new roof.
- 48:00I had to get no explanation.
- 48:03Now, apparently she knew that the roof needed an inspection, she had a contractor come out to assess it and said, well, the roof was still in pretty good shape.
- 48:11It needed some minor repairs, but the roof as a whole was a good shape and probably had at least another nine or ten years before it needed to be replaced.
- 48:19But it's interesting, coming again, coming up.
- 48:21Why are these going on?
- 48:23Are they simply using um again other sources to not actually inspect the roofs, but just get a glance at it?
- 48:31Uh, an advisor uh from the United Policyholders and Amy Bach said, if you get one of these notices right back immediately or call, ask them, am I being non-renewed on the basis of an aerial image?
- 48:45Then demand to see that image.
- 48:47I want to have those pictures.
- 48:48I want a chance to fix what the problem is.
- 48:51But unless I know what the problem is, I can't fix it.
- 48:55Which brings an interesting question.
- 48:57Are, you know, imagine, you know, does the insurance companies simply have drones flying around over their the houses of the people they uh they insure to inspect the homes?
- 49:10Because again, aerial footage may say there might be a problem, but it's pretty hard to say the extent of the problem just by an aerial footage.
- 49:18Which brings me to another question, and that is well, wait a second, you performed a search on my home.
- 49:25Does my policy authorize you to search my home without my permission?
- 49:29Well, it wasn't visible for the street.
- 49:31Do we actually have companies that are simply gathering images on rooftops in whole neighborhoods and then selling that data to the insurance companies?
- 49:41This to me comes on on on the uh on the heels of an other reports about people's uh uh driving habits being tracked by their cars.
- 49:50Nowadays, cars are you know rolling computers and they've got all sorts of of features and and in some cases the data collected about how you drive your car, how fast.
- 50:00You drive, how hard you accelerate, how hard your break.
- 50:04That's being sent to the car manufacturers, which is selling it to the insurance companies without your permission.
- 50:11These are issues we have to be concerned with because we've become so connected that we don't, we sometimes don't think about well, what are the downsides?
- 50:21What are the possible issues?
- 50:23I'm in the process of buying a car from a family member.
- 50:26And one of the first things I did was I searched online once I decided that I want to buy the car and say, how do I turn off any data reporting?
- 50:35I don't want the manufacturer to know how I drive.
- 50:38That's none of their business.
- 50:40I don't want them to know if they, you know, if uh if I'm getting my oil change when they when they think I should, or if I'm following none of their, they sold me the car.
- 50:49It is mine.
- 50:50They didn't rent it to me, they didn't lease it to me.
- 50:53I am the sole and whole owner.
- 50:55I don't even have a loan going to be on this car.
- 50:58And uh to me, this is another example of how often simply we don't think about what we hand over when we use these services that are supposed to make our lives easier.
- 51:11Now, I remember I had a problem.
- 51:13I had we had a windstorm out here that caused damage to my house.
- 51:18And uh I called the insurance company, they sent out an adjuster, the adjuster took a drone to make sure it was actually an overhead door that was damaged.
- 51:29But at that point, he went out and inspected with the drone to make sure there was no damage to the roof.
- 51:34So he could document and that's okay.
- 51:35I understand that I gave permission for that.
- 51:38That's a lot different from him simply flying his drone over my house when I'm not home because he's looking to see if there's a if there's a problem.
- 51:46And I think you know, we need to be more aware of not just how much data we make available to others, but how often that um people may be gathering data because well they think they have access, but they may not legally have access.
- 52:01And that may be something we need to know and be aware of.
- 52:04So uh there we go.
- 52:06Three topics today.
- 52:08Ice uh I should immigrants, arms, and incompetence.
- 52:12Uh nice little smorgasbord of events going on.
- 52:17We'll have to see what else comes up because you know, again, not always is there something worth an entire episode with a common theme.
- 52:24Maybe we'll have more of these.
- 52:25We'll have to see how the news goes.
- 52:26There's certainly plenty of things going on in this world, and I hope you're engaged in them.
- 52:31It's why when I set up the constitution study, our focus is on diligently reading and studying the constitution, knowing when our teaching the rising generation be free, knowing when our rights are violated, and preparing to defend and assert them.
- 52:45That's why I'm here.
- 52:47Hopefully, that's why you're here, and hopefully, that's why you'll you'll continue to come back and join us here for the constitution study.
- 52:57Now, you may have questions.
- 53:00You may have questions about what I've been talking about or other questions related to the constitution.
- 53:05I love answering questions.
- 53:06I know I'm weird.
- 53:08Most people don't like public speaking, most people don't like answering questions.
- 53:12I love both.
- 53:15Now, questions to me are important because they do two things.
- 53:18Obviously, if you don't know, ask.
- 53:21I only believe there are two stupid questions in the world.
- 53:23The one you don't ask, the one you asked three times.
- 53:24If you don't know, ask.
- 53:26Go to Constitution Study.com slash questions and ask your question.
- 53:29I ask for your name and email address because I'm going to email you an answer.
- 53:33Me, myself, I, not an AI, not I'm going to answer your question.
- 53:38Now, if you'd like me to answer the question on the radio, well, there's a checkbox.
- 53:42You know, please answer on America Out Loud Talk Radio.
- 53:45You do that, I'll answer on the radio.
- 53:47But as I said, the only two stupid questions, the one you don't ask, the one you ask three times.
- 53:52If you don't know, ask.
- 53:54Not only does it help you, but it actually helps me.
- 53:58Because every question is based on a premise, and I have to double check to make sure my premise is valid.
- 54:03So when people ask questions, I'm offering double checking myself to make sure I'm on the right point.
- 54:08But it also helps you, and it also helps others because there are probably dozens, if not hundreds of people out there listening that have the same or similar question, but either didn't think to ask or maybe they were afraid to ask.
- 54:20I mean, I honestly, I'm not that scary.
- 54:22I don't bite.
- 54:23I've had all my shots.
- 54:25Old joke.
- 54:26So please go to constitutionstudy.com/slash questions and ask your question.
- 54:31I'd much rather have you ask and me answer than have you under.
- 54:36Or to continue under a false premise, because a lot of the questions I get uh are based in a false premise, and I can help prove with facts and evidence and data and quotes and point you to the right place to see.
- 54:50Oh, wait a second, you need to understand this in order to properly answer that question.
- 54:54So it helps you, it helps me, it helps other listeners.
- 54:57Please do.
- 54:59I I'd love to have more segments where I'm just answering questions, but sadly, I'm not getting as much as I used to.
- 55:05So I'm looking forward to to answering your questions.
- 55:08Again, go to Constitution Study.com/slash questions and ask.
- 55:12I also hope you'll come back and join us here for the Constitution Study.
- 55:16Now, we're on America Out Loud Talk Radio, heard on the iHeartRadio Network every weekday at 4 p.m.
- 55:23Eastern time.
- 55:24Which means you get to listen on the web on the uh on on our apps for Apple, Android or Alexa, or if your iHeartRadio cover uh station covers it, you can hear us on the air.
- 55:35Of course, you can also listen via podcast.
- 55:37Now, podcasts are cool.
- 55:38I listen to a lot of podcasts.
- 55:40Means you don't have to listen at 4 p.m.
- 55:42Eastern time.
- 55:42You can follow up later because it does take a day or two for an episode to go from talk radio to podcast.
- 55:49But you get to listen in your favorite podcast app.
- 55:52I ask you a favor though.
- 55:54Subscribe to the show to the podcast, right?
- 55:57Leave us a rating on Apple Podcast.
- 55:59It's important for the algorithm.
- 56:01See, the more subscriptions we have, the more four-star and five-star reviews we have.
- 56:06Well, the more likely the algorithm is to share this when people are looking for podcasts to listen to.
- 56:12So you can find all the links you need at the homepage at AmericaOutloud.news.
- 56:17But please share those links.
- 56:28That means when you share the link to the program, you're not just sharing the constitution study.
- 56:33You're not just sharing America Out Loud Talk Radio.
- 56:36You are helping to share the blessings of liberty to everyone who calls this great nation home.
