  Speaker 2: above two seventy five, but then slows between Peifer and

  Speaker 2: through Westchester, heavier through Lachlan and northbound seventy five remains
• 0:39
  Speaker 2: over a twenty five minute delay between Florence and downtown.
• 0:44
  Speaker 2: A lot of people decorate their front yards with inflatable santus,
• 0:47
  Speaker 2: but our next guest has decorated his yard this year
• 0:51
  Speaker 2: with an inflatable Congressman Thomas Massey and Senator Ran Paul.
• 0:56
  Speaker 2: They're both holding a twenty by thirty foot American flag
• 1:00
  Speaker 2: made up of over six hundred led twinkle whites who
• 1:06
  Speaker 2: tearing up just thinking about it. The judge is next
• 1:09
  Speaker 2: chucking ram month fifty five krs the talk station.
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: I think Massy's also got a giant discharge petition to
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: get a vote on the authorization for you some military force.
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: Welcome back, Judge, Editor Politano.
• 1:23
  Speaker 3: Thank you, Thank you. Brian chuck Is. You know he
• 1:26
  Speaker 3: really puts time at the crafting these things.
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: Hey, he does quite often.
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: Though.
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: I will give Joe Stracker credit because Joe helped me
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: along the way, because you know, he's busy doing the
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: traffic for like nine thousand cities across this great land
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: of ours that are serviced by iHeartMedia, so we'll share
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: the love. But he certainly does a great job delivering
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: on it. Judge Edita Politano, And I was we had
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: more topics to talk about with Congress from Massy, but
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: I wanted to get into that blowing up drug smuggler
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: thing because you Senator ran Paul, of course, Congressman Massey
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: and I seem be the lone, three, four or five
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: total people in the world. You think there's a problem
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: with blowing up boats off of Venezuela. You know, you
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: and I have talked about authorization to use some military force.
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: We think we're on questionable constitutional grounds because there's no
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: reference to the AUMs in the Constitution. You either have a
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: declaration of war or you don't, or it falls within
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: like an emergency power. Donald Trump sees the troops coming
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: at us over the horizon and needs to act right
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: away as commander in chief. You and I agree, Congressman
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: Massy agrees that ain't what's going on with fifteen hundred
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: miles away boats that may may have drugs on them.
• 2:39
  Speaker 3: And even the Democrats. I was moved by Congressman Jim Himes.
• 2:44
  Speaker 3: I don't really agree with him un much, but he
• 2:46
  Speaker 3: was visibly shaken by what he observed when he saw
• 2:51
  Speaker 3: the two survivors obliterated. But even the Democrats are not
• 2:56
  Speaker 3: complaining about the whole project ah higher concept. They're just
• 3:02
  Speaker 3: complaining about killing the survivors. All of this killing is
• 3:06
  Speaker 3: unconstitutional and criminal. There is no legal basis for it.
• 3:11
  Speaker 3: The government knows that, and it refuses to release it's
• 3:15
  Speaker 3: so called authority to do so.
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: Well, as Congressmans, you've just got done pointing out all
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: these extra judicial killings, the ones done by Obama and
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: you know that we could go on and on because
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: you bring them up regularly, including the killing of American
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: citizen overseas done under the twenty two thousand and one
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: Authorization for Used Military Force to go after Islamic fundamentalist
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: terrorists broad leeway there, They're everywhere you can find them.
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: But I don't think that Venezuela and Narco folks are
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: fundamentalist Muslim terrorists, so you can't put it under that AUMF.
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: So you need a new one that allows us to
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: wage a war against I guess when the President says
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: Narco terrorists, they're Narco terrorists. But if they are, then
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: you need a specific authorization to go after those in
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: the way we're going after them, right, correct.
• 4:00
  Speaker 3: Correct, There is no such an authorization. Listen. I'm with
• 4:04
  Speaker 3: Senator Paul, Congressman Massey and you on this. The AUMFS
• 4:09
  Speaker 3: authorizations for use of military force are unconstitutional. They're unrecognized
• 4:14
  Speaker 3: by the Constitution because they don't have an end period
• 4:19
  Speaker 3: to them. When we declared war on Japan and Germany
• 4:24
  Speaker 3: and Italy on December eighth, nineteen forty one, the declaration
• 4:27
  Speaker 3: of war ended expired when they surrendered these AUMFS have
• 4:34
  Speaker 3: no surrender. When Donald Trump used a drone to kill
• 4:39
  Speaker 3: General Solomani in twenty nineteen, he based it on the
• 4:43
  Speaker 3: two thousand and one Authorization for the Use of Military Force.
• 4:47
  Speaker 3: There was no connection whatsoever. SOLEMONI was an Iraqi who
• 4:53
  Speaker 3: was in Iran trying to negotiate peace, and they murdered
• 4:57
  Speaker 3: him and claimed to get something to do with nine
• 4:59
  Speaker 3: to eleven. He was a young man in nine to
• 5:02
  Speaker 3: eleven and had nothing whatsoever to do with it. These
• 5:05
  Speaker 3: authorization for use of military force authorizations are like a
• 5:09
  Speaker 3: loaded gun in the resolute desk waiting for the president
• 5:13
  Speaker 3: to take it out and kill wherever he wants.
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: All right, now, let's address the underlying problem. I mean,
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: I'm in accord with my listeners. We had a real
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: problem with people criminally ferrying drugs into our country, demonstrably
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: bad for our country. Hundreds of thousands of people have
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: died already. I know we got a problem with consumption,
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: but those drugs are not legally allowed to come into
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: our country. So fighting the drug problem and going after
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: them seems to be the ultimate goal. Expedience is what
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: Donald Trump is embracing. Hell, I'll just blow them up
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: and we'll just you know, let Congress and and and
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: everybody twiddle their thumbs and scream and yell about it.
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: We need an AUMF, we need a declaration of war
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: all that. How do we what do we need to
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: do to get to the problem. I mean, if you
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: and I are an agreement on this, so how.
• 5:57
  Speaker 3: Do they we? Liberious? Libertarian? And he says, you own
• 6:00
  Speaker 3: your own body, and people should be able to do
• 6:02
  Speaker 3: whatever they want to their own bodies. Now, I recognize
• 6:06
  Speaker 3: that drugs have ruined people other than those who take them,
• 6:09
  Speaker 3: because the people who take them have spouses and children
• 6:12
  Speaker 3: and jobs and are engaged in economic, social, cultural activity.
• 6:17
  Speaker 3: But I think you should be able to do what
• 6:19
  Speaker 3: you want. That view is not going to prevail. We
• 6:23
  Speaker 3: are victorians. The government thinks it knows what's better for us.
• 6:27
  Speaker 3: The second view is a due process. Due process would say,
• 6:33
  Speaker 3: follow the boat until it gets into American waters, Stop
• 6:38
  Speaker 3: the boat, search it. If there's no drugs, leave them alone.
• 6:42
  Speaker 3: If there are drugs, arrest everybody, prosecute them. You will
• 6:46
  Speaker 3: learn a lot more about where the drugs came from
• 6:50
  Speaker 3: and how they got in the United States by the
• 6:52
  Speaker 3: process of prosecution and plea bargaining negotiation, then you will
• 6:57
  Speaker 3: by destroying everything. Where will now, parroting Senator poll, where
• 7:02
  Speaker 3: will the destruction stop? I mean, suppose the boat makes
• 7:06
  Speaker 3: it to Miami and unloads into a moving van, and
• 7:11
  Speaker 3: the moving van is going north on ninety five towards Orlando.
• 7:15
  Speaker 3: Can you blow up the moving van? I mean, where
• 7:18
  Speaker 3: will this stop?
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: That's a great point, I agree, And if they entered
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: international waters, I think law would prohibit us from just
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: unilaterally blowing them up, certainly in the absence of an
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: authorization east military force. They're in international waters, I mean
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: they're in a rather territorial waters. They didn't mean international water.
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: So once they've got to the point where they do
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: represent an emminent threat faring this dangerous cargo, like you said,
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: pull them over like the Coastguard does and prosecute it.
• 7:43
  Speaker 3: I mean, these speedboats have a maximum distance of fifty
• 7:47
  Speaker 3: to sixty miles, and they all, all of them, except
• 7:51
  Speaker 3: for the two or three that were off the coast
• 7:53
  Speaker 3: of Mexico. We're fifteen hundred miles from the United States. Basically,
• 8:01
  Speaker 3: this thug, Admiral Bradley, was shooting fish in a barrel.
• 8:07
  Speaker 3: And as I point out in the article. He was
• 8:10
  Speaker 3: in Florida. The vehicles, whether they were drones or jets,
• 8:15
  Speaker 3: took off from Florida. The people pressing the buttons and
• 8:18
  Speaker 3: locating the targets are in Florida. There's somebody to the
• 8:21
  Speaker 3: Constitution in Florida. They can't say they escaped the Constitution
• 8:26
  Speaker 3: because they're doing their work in the Caribbean. They can't
• 8:29
  Speaker 3: say they escaped the constitution because they're targeting narco terrorists.
• 8:34
  Speaker 3: Narco terrorists is not a legal term. It's a political term.
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and that's I think that's sort of an endeavor
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: to be sly and kind of shoehorn the drug dealers
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: into the prior authorization use military force, which of course
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: were related to Muslim and fundamental Is terrorists. So I
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: don't know that you can necessarily do that, but it
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: sounds good when you say it out loud. Look, I'm
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: bringing about justice. I'm dealing with these people expediently. I'm
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: sending a message to the world. And the only reason
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: that message is being sent because of the course, Venezuela
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: can't defend itself.
• 9:07
  Speaker 3: Right right, So listen. I don't know how this ends.
• 9:10
  Speaker 3: Colonel Lawrence Wilkerson who's the former chief of staff of
• 9:15
  Speaker 3: the State Department under Colon Powell, has told me that
• 9:19
  Speaker 3: the government is spending a billion with a bee a
• 9:22
  Speaker 3: day to house twenty thousand troops down there and a
• 9:28
  Speaker 3: dozen ships a billion with a bee a day. Is
• 9:31
  Speaker 3: that just wasted or will Trump feel the need to
• 9:34
  Speaker 3: do something? And yesterday they conducted to practice runs in
• 9:39
  Speaker 3: Puerto Rico of storming beaches. And yesterday President Trump said
• 9:45
  Speaker 3: of President Maduro, his days are numbered. For what Venezuela
• 9:51
  Speaker 3: doesn't pose thus lightest national security threat to the United States.
• 9:55
  Speaker 3: It is not an exporter of drugs. The fentanyl is
• 9:59
  Speaker 3: made aid in Mexico and comes directly from Mexico. The
• 10:03
  Speaker 3: cocaine comes from Honduras, the president of which he just
• 10:08
  Speaker 3: let out of jail from a forty five year prison term.
• 10:11
  Speaker 3: Who is the biggest exporter of cocaine in the history
• 10:14
  Speaker 3: of the United States government? What am I missing here, Brian?
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: Not quite sure what. I'm sure there are certain elements
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: that you left out, but you know, it just serve
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: to further illustrate your broader point. And I know it's
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: difficult for my listeners to hear. They hate hearing that
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: this is unlawful or extra constitutional. But you know what
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: it's it's the try. I think you can't get escape
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: the truth. Breathe the document.
• 10:36
  Speaker 2: I mean.
• 10:38
  Speaker 3: Congressional action isn't took an oath faithfully to enforce the
• 10:44
  Speaker 3: laws and faithfully to uphold the constitution. The laws for
• 10:48
  Speaker 3: him an extra judicial killing, and the Constitution requires due process.
• 10:52
  Speaker 3: A high school student could tell you that.
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: Are you talking today on Judging Freedom your podcast Judged
