  Speaker 1: Simone show on sevent tenor Hey it's Friday. That's good.
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: Got through the first week of twenty twenty six. We'll
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: get to Minneapolis. We'll get to Portland. We'll get to CBS,
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: We'll get to ran the Ayatolm may be fleeing at
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: any moment. We'll get to Mom, Donnie. We'll get to
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: a whole lot more coming up this morning. It is
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: the end of the first week of twenty twenty six.
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: We made it through all of this. I see dead
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: Christmas trees all over the sidewalks in New York. People
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: just toss them out there in the garbage and they're
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: lying around all over the place there. So it's gonna
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: be warm today. But the rain starts later. It's going
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: to be a very rainy weekend. But whatever snow there's
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: left out there somewhere is going to get washed away
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: this weekend. So President Trump, let's go over everything this Minneapolis,
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: they've started to identify the ice officer who fired the shots,
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: his picture, his face, his name all over the internet.
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: Now you know how the poor woman who got killed,
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: They would say, well, she was a mother of a
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: six year old, She was a poet, she was a
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: wonderful woman. Was also driving a car right into a
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: bunch of law enforcement officers, trying to terrorize them all day.
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: It's not just at that moment, but she'd been there
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: apparently all day, trying to block them, trying to interrupt them,
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: trying to troll them, going after them. I could see
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: protesting if you're really upset about something. I could see
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: getting a sign and standing there waving your sign and
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: yelling something. But could you imagine ever getting into a
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: big suv and terrorizing the agents. Could you imagine would
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: you ever have the nerve to do that? And when
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: I say terrorizing, I mean she's driving into them, around them.
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: And if you watch, they don't show you this really
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: that when they show these videos right before the incident,
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: it all started. When the ice agents are in a
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: caravan of cars SUVs, they're coming down the street, right
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: before all this, she takes her SUV, gets in front
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: of them and turns the car sideways so that it's
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: blocking the whole street. Now, usually when you see that happen,
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: there's a couple of Blue Bloods episodes where you see
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: that where they're trying to stop Danny Reagan from taking
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: that witness into court. One suv turns sideways blocks the road.
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: Another gets behind the caravan blocks them in, so they're
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: boxed in, and now they start shooting at them. So
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: if you're these Ice agents and you see this car
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: ahead of you turn and just sideways block the whole
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: street so you can't move, your first thought is you're
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: going to get ambushed. Here there's going to be another
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: car blocking you from behind. I mean, if I were them,
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: I would have just rammed right through her and knocked
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: her car of the way, but they instead stopped. They
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: got out of the car and try to approach her
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: to see what it was all about. And that's where
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: all this started. Now you got all these people yelling
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: and screaming. You got Mam Donnie, and of course it
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: can always count on him for the left wing kook response,
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: and he's yelling murder, murder, murder. And you got the
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: Minnesota mayor, who's not the same thing their own Mamdanni
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: yelling murder. You got Tim Waltz, the governor. He wants
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: to try this cop there. And now there's a couple
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: of things. If you just go over the facts. Fact
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: number one, this cop will never ever ever get convicted
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: of anything. He's totally legally covered, justified. We can go
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: over the reasons why in a moment, absolutely total legal shooting.
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: Now here's the other thing. If you talk off the
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: record to every great law enforcement person, police commissioners, all
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: sorts of top top police people, they'll tell you when
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: they've studied this, it's legally justified. It was legal in firing.
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: But they'll also tell you off the record, he shouldn't
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: have fired. You didn't have to fire. Did hit him
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: with the car, he was in front of it, She
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: was coming at him. She then tried to turn away,
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: so you can legally fire at her. But they all
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: said the same thing. If you were a much smarter cop,
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: you would have gotten out of the way. You didn't
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: have to fire, So you don't shoot and kill her.
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: You just either get the local police to capture her later,
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: or you chase her and capture He didn't need to
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: fire the shots. Now he's legally covered because she did
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: hit him with the car. You can see that in
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: the videos from the front. And also if you're watching
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: Stephen Colbert, you wouldn't have any of this last night.
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: He did this whole thing about her. He just shot
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: her from the side of the car. He was on
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: the side of the car shooting at her. Now, actually
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: he was in front of the car for the first shot.
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: Because the first shot, and this is the key to
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: everything if it ever were to go into a courtroom,
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: the first shot goes through the front windshield. And that's
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: impossible to do if you're on the side of the car.
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: If the first shot goes right through the front windshield.
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: And that's because he was in front of the car.
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: If you look at the other videos, which they'd never
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: show you, from the front the car hit some reason,
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: he's on the side. The car hit him and knocked
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: him to the side. But again, he's legally justified. He's
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: legal in the shooting. But off the record, every law
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: enforcement guesses, you didn't have to fire those shots. You
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: could have just let it go. But he will get
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: a federal investigation. They will not convict him. Even the
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: biggest trumpeting prosecutors, the Andy McCarthy types, will tell you
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: it's illegally justified shooting. They can't convict him of anything,
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: but fed's will go after him. Now, the Minnesota officials
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: the crazy left wing mayor and Waltz. They want to
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: try him, they want to put him on trial, they
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: want to go after him. It's good for them politically,
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: it's a good issue for them to latch onto. That's
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: the other problem with this. It's a terrible incident, tragic, awful,
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: even though it's legal. It's probably unnecessary, but it's legal.
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: But if you're a Democrat and you hate Trump and
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: your whole life is trying to get Trump, this is perfect.
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: You could use this for the next year, and you
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: got midterm elections coming up. So if you're a Democrat,
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: this is great. This footage the cops shooting the woman.
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: If you read these articles in the left wing news media,
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: she was a poet, she was a mother, she was
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: how could they shoot her? But again, if you're a
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: poet and a mother, you generally wouldn't be the type
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: would you to be taking your suv and trying to
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: run over cops or try to bust up a police operation.
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: That's highly unusual behavior. But these Democrats, with the rhetoric,
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: these Colberts and Stephanopoulos's and all the media and all
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: the Democrats and all they've riled up these people they've
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: inflamed them. They've weaponized these white liberal women with their
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: liberal arts degrees to go crazy. But Tim Waltz, who's
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: had to withdraw from the governor his race in total disgrace,
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: This might be a turning point for him. Maybe you
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: can save himself. That's why he wants to do the investigation.
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: Yesterday, the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension, the BCA, spent
• 7:10
  Speaker 2: the day yesterday attempting to get that accountability. We have
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: learned that the Trump administration has now denied the state
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: that ability to participate in the investigation. And I always
• 7:19
  Speaker 2: want to make this as clear as possible to everyone.
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: Minnesota must be part of this investigation.
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: Right now. Gotta give this guy credit for the first
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: ten seconds. Boy does he sound.
• 7:30
  Speaker 2: Official yesterday the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension, the bc.
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: Ooh, the PC other, Minnesota Bureau of Criminal and Apprehension.
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: It sounds impressive. Then he said, well, wait a minute,
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: you just had eighteen billions stolen right under your nose.
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: You didn't even know it, and now that you know
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: it's stolen, you haven't done a damn thing about it.
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: A spent the day yesterday attempting to get that accountability.
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: Accountability, that's that's his middle name, accountability. Again. Eighteen billions stolen.
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: He didn't notice, he didn't see, he didn't look. Now
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: that they know it was stolen, and you'll never hear
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: a word about it from him. He'll never mention. It
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: looks the other way. So it's it's just silly, it's
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: just ridiculous. So we'll see what happens. There will be
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: a federal investigation. Now you got the Portland incident on
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: top of that, and again it's the same thing. You know,
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: people weaponizing cars, trying to drive into you don't wherever
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: there's a shooting, a gun incident, they always call for
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: banning guns. You've had people use cars now as weapons.
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: We'll see what happens. Car attacks, now here's here's one
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: reason the ICE agents are really really on edge over
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: this attacks with people using cars to run down ICE agents.
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: Car attacks on ICE agents over the last year are up.
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: They have spiked up thirty two hundred percent in one year.
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: Thirty two hundred percent in one year. There's a massive
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: number of incidents. The one reason this cop was so
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: quick to fire was months ago he was in another
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: incident where a car tried to run him down and
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: the car he got caught with his arm in the car,
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: and the car dragged him for hundreds and hundreds of feet,
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: almost tore his arm off. In fact, he was seriously injured.
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: He had something like forty five stitches and his arm.
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: He still hasn't gotten full use of his arm. So,
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: you know, the victim who was shot, you'll hear about
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: what a wonderful she was, a mother, she was this Well,
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: you could do the same thing with the cop. Everybody
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: describes him as a wonderful man, a really kind, wonderful neighbor,
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: a guy who went to church all the time. And
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: he's married to an immigrant. You know, he's not an
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: anti immigrant guy. He's been on the Ice Force for
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: twelve years. He was, for that, a war veteran, So
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: I mean, a model citizen. But this will continue. You know,
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: it doesn't matter what the real deal is. Democrats are
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: running for midterm aline. They need to use this. They
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: want to destroy Trump should they take office. They want
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: to impeach them. This would be perfect. Are they going
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: to play this up like crazy? You're gonna hear all
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: about this. You're going to see more rioting. Now, we
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: hope this doesn't turn out to remember the last time
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: we had the riots start, it went on for an
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: entire summer, all through the election year, and this will
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: be an election year, so you know, you've got a
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: couple other things going on. The Affordable Care Act is
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: it turned out this Obamacare, they call it the Affordable
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: Care Act, but it's not affordable. It turned out to
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: be a total disaster. Drove the cost of healthcare up
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: like crazy. So to fix that, the government has to
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: give you subsidies. It's so unaffordable you have to get
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: huge government subsidies to pay for it, and those have expired.
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: That's what the shutdown was all about. So we're headed
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: to another shutdown in two weeks. About those substies, well,
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: yesterday this week Congress started to pass the patch for that.
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: We thought they'd do like a a one year patch
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: continue the subsidies to give everybody time to figure out
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: how to fix the system. But instead it was three years,
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: so for three years the subsidies will continue. Now this
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: is bad for Democrats in the midterms because if the
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: whole thing expired, healthcare costs would have gone way up.
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: It would have helped Democrats run for the midterms, but
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: they've lost this issue now by putting in this patch.
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: So apparently what Democrats want to do is they want
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: to use these incidents with Ice as the big midterm election.
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: They'll try affordability. But the problem is, and I think
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: they kind of know this, as we head into the summer,
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: prices are going to come way down. Inflation has been dropping.
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: Everything is. Prices have been dropping, the economy has been
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: picking up steam. The tax cuts from the big beautiful
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: bill now kick in starting this month. People will be
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: getting more in their paychecks. So affordability economy, that might
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: not be the greatest issue. But they're going to use
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: ice as the midtermsoe So in fact, they're talking about
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: maybe another government shutdown over ice, over getting rid of ice.
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: There'll be a defund the ice movement coming, so keep
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: an eye out for that. Hey, Iran is an amazing situation.
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: You know, you always wanted to get rid of this iatolem.
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: You always thought, maybe, you know, if you stir up
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: a rebellion revolution in Iren, maybe that will put well,
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: we didn't have to do a thing. It already rows
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: up on its own. The people of Iran are rebelling
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: like crazy, protesting all of this. It's gotten so out
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: of hand that Iran has shut down their internet as
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: a way to stop that. You see signs now death
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: to the Ayatola, which usually would get you killed in
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: a second, but the revolution is so bold right now.
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: They've got these signs up. And apparently the Ayatola, who's
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: very old, is making plans. He thinks there's a good
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: chance he may have to flee the country and leave
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: that the revolution may be successful if the Iotola leaves.
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: Apparently he's planning to go to Russia where they will
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: take care of him. And he's got about twenty people
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: he wants to take with him inner circle family, so
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: that would be fascinating. He leaves, and then the revolution,
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: if it's successful, you get a normal government, normal some
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: kind of sort of democratic government. So you'll have that
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: in Venezuela, you'll have that in Iran. If President Trump
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: keeps going on the path he's going on, you'll probably
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: end up with some kind of democracy in Cuba Columbia.
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: He'll bring down these dictators. Now, the meeting is today
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: with all the oil companies. The president wants the big
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: oil companies to go into Venezuela and fix the oil, drilling,
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: the infrastructure. It's all decayed and gone. Venezuela, believe it
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: or not, has twenty percent of the world's oil. Seventeen
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: trillion in oil is under the ground there, three hundred
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: billion barrels. They've got more oil than the Saudis do.
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: So the problem is they don't have any oil industry.
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: They let all the wells, the infrastructure totally decay. They
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: can't get it out of the ground. But you send
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: these oil companies in there. They know how to fix
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: that stuff. Take a while, but they'll fix it. Get
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: the oil pumping, and then Venezuela could not only be
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: a democracy, it could be the most wealthy, booming economy
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: as it was way back when before the socialists came in.
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: Now here's the only catch. President has the oil company
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: executives coming in today to talk to them about going
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: down there and fixing everything. Now, they would love to
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: do this because you can make a lot of money
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: pumping all that oil. But and they're gonna be very
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: careful with the Presidenty're not going to really come out
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: and say this. They're going to kind of stall for time.
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: Because they don't really want to go in there. Here's
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: the problem, and they're not wrong about this. It'd be
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: great if Trump's in office. They will go down there,
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: fix the oil, infrastructure, oil beflow, everything, great. But they
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: got to think to them, so, well, what if the
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: Republicans lose Congress in November, what if Democrats take over?
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: They won't pack us up. We won't get the protection
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: we need, the money we need. And then they got
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: to think, what if in a couple of years that
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: Democrats take the White House, if it's a democratic government,
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: they'll be stuck down there in Venezuela without the federal
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: backup and protection. So they're not too crazy about going
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: in there right now. So, hey, we got a lot
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: to get to this hour. Oh we'll get to CBS
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: that Barry Weiss, the new person running it, is cleaning
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: things up, that Evening News now is a little more balanced.
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: And apparently she's all over sixty minutes stopping some of
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: their stories because they're totally unbalanced, and letting some of
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: their stories go if they agree to put in both sides.
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: This has got CBS people very upset. So we'll get
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: to that in a lot more coming up, we'll take
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: some calls. Next. Eight hundred three to two one zero
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: seven ten is the number. One hundred three two one
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: zero seven ten
