  Good morning, everybody, Welcome to the Morning Show with Preston Scott Show,
• 0:31
  five thousand and sixteen. That's Grant running the program. It is Wednesday,
• 0:37
  September twenty seventh, otherwise known as my son Jamison's birthday. Happy birthday,
• 0:42
  son, I love you, and here we go. We are joined by
• 0:46
  frequent guests contributed to the program. United States Border Patrol Agent retired Azeus Rodriguez.
• 0:52
  Good morning, my friend. How are you? Good morning, serif
• 0:56
  finding yourself. I'm new and terrific, but I'm not anywhere near the impact
• 1:03
  of what's going on in our southern border. Is there a way to quantify
• 1:08
  how bad it is? I mean, we know the numbers are just unbelievable,
• 1:12
  but how bad is it? Getting? Oh voye pressing, It's bad.
• 1:19
  It's you know what I to my wife. I get disgusted. Was
• 1:23
  everything that's happening down there because of just the sheer numbers of illegal aliens.
• 1:30
  They're just I can't say any more different, just pouring through there to the
• 1:34
  southern border, and so even like Anaha in for instance, you're having about
• 1:38
  anywhere from a thousand to two thousand a day coming through. And they're coming
• 1:44
  from like Mauritania, they're coming from the Senegal, They're coming from everywhere.
• 1:49
  I mean. And it's interesting because I keep hearing that there's a lot of
• 1:55
  single military age men there in those large groups. And add to the fact
• 2:00
  that in some areas the cartels are running the family groups to there. So
• 2:05
  it's it's it's not they really is We're already describing. We're seeing videos of
• 2:13
  trainloads of people singing and celebrating as it moves through Mexico north to the border.
• 2:21
  Why isn't the Mexican government just stopping it. I don't think it can
• 2:24
  stop them pressing if they if they come into their country, into Mexico and
• 2:30
  they get and I'm not saying in this case it happens to all these people
• 2:32
  that are on the train, But if they if they go through the process
• 2:36
  where they get a vista, they can go anywhere they want. Plus the
• 2:38
  sheer numbers onto itself. I mean, that's just look at all the number
• 2:43
  of people they have coming through there. I mean, they're going to push
• 2:46
  their push their way through there until they get to where they need to come
• 2:50
  to up to the southern border. And it's you know, you've seen it.
• 2:53
  We've seen it before in the past and years used to see those natural
• 2:55
  disasters happen in these countries and you would have a trickle of people come in
• 3:00
  there. But the floodgates are open now. But surely it can't be legal
• 3:05
  for people to just jump on a train, not passenger trains. They're just
• 3:09
  hanging onto box cars. They're just stuffing themselves on top of these these containers.
• 3:15
  That can't be legal. No, it can be legal. And I
• 3:17
  think they stopped that last train from what I from what I read from my
• 3:23
  end told me, they stopped them in the state of Kuahila from coming up
• 3:27
  to the southern border. But it still doesn't mean that even though you stop
• 3:30
  that train, they're not going to make their way up there. Sure the
• 3:31
  car tails are running all this so they know how to they're going to go
• 3:35
  to Plan B and Plan C and whatever other plans they have in order to
• 3:37
  get to their cargo up to the southern border. So it's that's not going
• 3:40
  to stop. It'll slow them down. It's a steed bump. But that's
• 3:43
  about it. I mean, you know, but then the personally, you
• 3:46
  have to look at the fact that the that the government has that app that
• 3:49
  they're that they can put on their smartphone and they can basically get their way
• 3:53
  in here. There's some article that I think that that had that that I
• 3:58
  read that ninety nine percent of the people people that use an apper just come
• 4:01
  in here, they get processed, and out the door they go. Ninety
• 4:06
  nine percent. What does that tell you? Ninety nine percent That is just
• 4:10
  ridiculous. Nine percent of and the numbers are astronomical. This is an invasion
• 4:15
  of our country. You're and you're talking about just people that are coming to
• 4:20
  the border give it quitters as we used to call them, quitters, giving
• 4:25
  themselves up. You process them, you know, you do what you gotta
• 4:28
  do. You kick them out the door and on their way they you know,
• 4:30
  they go. You're not talking about the ones that I don't want to
• 4:33
  get caught that are coming in and whatever else, whoever else and whatever else
• 4:39
  they're bringing into the country that because the ages don't have any time to work
• 4:43
  that traffic, they don't they're just they're basically, you know, for I
• 4:47
  hate to say it, but they're basically gun total concierge for the for the
• 4:50
  government. Hey, Esus, stand by, We're going to take a quick
• 4:54
  break pick up right there with a story of what was happening in and around
• 5:00
  San Diego, what Border Patrol was reportedly doing, and we'll get a Zeus's
• 5:05
  reaction to that and much more. A Zeus Rodriguez with me on the Morning
• 5:10
  Show with Preston Scott. Follow us on Twitter ATFLA FM. Welcome to m
• 5:15
  A D Radio Network. It's the Morning Show with Preston Scott. My guest
• 5:30
  is a Zeus Rodriguez, better than twenty years US Border Patrol agent, now
• 5:36
  retired and still a lot of colleagues working the border, still involved in business
• 5:46
  that I guess runs parallel to what's going on there. Hey Zeus, we
• 5:50
  were just talking about the endless numbers here. We're seeing stories now of the
• 5:57
  Border Patrol literally loading up their own buses, taking them to downtown San Diego
• 6:03
  and saying, you can do whatever you want, You're free. Yep,
• 6:09
  that's about it. I mean that that's happening because the sheer numbers that they
• 6:15
  have right now, they can only hold them for such for a period of
• 6:17
  time. And once they get processed, and you know, is the tension
• 6:23
  can't hold that, you know, the bodies, they kick them out the
• 6:25
  door. They basically take them to you know, a gas station somewhere where
• 6:30
  it's you know, relatively safe and bus stations and drop them off there and
• 6:34
  you know, and they turn and leave and geos. I mean, so
• 6:38
  it's it really is, that's there's nothing. There's nothing they can do,
• 6:43
  and they're doing what they're what the marching orders are and what the laws are
• 6:46
  as far as holding them are concerned. And then add to the fact pussing
• 6:48
  that what people don't realize is that what's happening also on in Love the southern
• 6:55
  borders that you have sim cards that are all over the place along with documents
• 6:59
  are or shredded right there. Why because the people that are coming in they
• 7:03
  don't want you to they don't want to be identified for who they really are.
• 7:06
  They can give you they can give you a false name, and you
• 7:10
  don't know because when the agents process the illegal aliens at the station or a
• 7:15
  process and facility, they are they're only with the fingerprints, are only able
• 7:20
  to link into the FBI database and see if they have any prior criminal history
• 7:26
  in the United States. That doesn't mean that they come from Venezela, does
• 7:30
  mean that they come from Mauritania and Senegal. From wherever they come from.
• 7:32
  You cannot there's no way to link into that database and see if they have
• 7:36
  any kind of history criminal history in those countries. They they'll send the countries.
• 7:41
  So if they if they're clear, and they could be you know,
• 7:45
  they could be a mass murder, they could be whatever in those in their
• 7:47
  home countries, and that they're clear. Here in the US, out the
• 7:50
  door they go and we're seeing the reports they become murderers here, rapists here,
• 7:57
  criminals here, cartel uh, you know, extensions here in our country.
• 8:03
  We're hearing stories about the ICE UH, Immigration and Customs Enforcement Enforcement secure
• 8:09
  a docket card. It's a card that's going to allegedly hold a photograph and
• 8:16
  be issued to people in this country. But before we even get to any
• 8:20
  of that, you said, we're following the law. How are we following
• 8:24
  the law allowing people to just come into the country illegally. Well, it's
• 8:31
  not the it's not that pressing. That's the fact that they're that the ages
• 8:33
  can only hold these people for a certain amount of time, and you can
• 8:37
  only detain them for such a shortain amount time before you have to send them
• 8:41
  to a detention facility or you have to cut them loose. Why can't we
• 8:43
  just turn them back into Mexico? I know, I know, I've got
• 8:48
  to ask the question, not under this guy and running the running in the
• 8:52
  White House? That is not going to happen. And and and you know
• 8:56
  that's what my my big one of my big concerns is that is that what
• 9:03
  is coming out in the middle of nowhere where the agents can't work the traffic.
• 9:07
  On top of that, what is what is coming into the country that's
• 9:11
  well, you know, they're giving themselves up. Who is coming into this
• 9:15
  country that has you know, that has some bad intentions or was a criminal
• 9:20
  in their country? And I'm not saying they are all criminals, but jeez,
• 9:22
  Louise, I mean, what is this They're cutting people loose that we
• 9:26
  have no clue who the heck they are. And you know, and then
• 9:31
  like I told you earlier, you know military age men, it is not
• 9:35
  it's out of control person, There's no way. And the more I hear
• 9:39
  about it. Just the the more disgusted that I get, because it's just
• 9:45
  why have the agents down there? Just let's just open it up, let
• 9:48
  it all come in. What's the heck of me? That's what you're doing
• 9:50
  right now, you know, because people seem to think, oh, they're
• 9:52
  gonna you know, they're given a court that yeah, they're not going to
• 9:56
  show up to the court. That you'll never see these people again. You'll
• 9:58
  never see them again. Ay, Zeus stand by, We're gonna pick up
• 10:01
  right there, got a lot more to talk through in a final segment.
• 10:05
  That's a promo right there. When I said, why don't we just turn
• 10:07
  them loose and put them back in Mexico, he just laughed. WFLA on
• 10:13
  your phone with the iHeart Radio app and on hundreds of devices like Alexa,
• 10:18
  Google Home, Xbox, and son Noskay, So here we go in Ihearts
• 10:22
  Radio Season twenty two minutes past the hour, final segment, a Zeus Rodriguez,
• 10:33
  US Border Patrol agent retired. We're talking about the chaos and the untenable
• 10:39
  situation, the invasion that's going on in our southern border. A Zeus I
• 10:43
  ended the segment by saying that this problem is not easy to deal with,
• 10:50
  but it's simple, it's not complicated. Is that Is that an oversimplification somewhat
• 10:58
  the person Because what happens is that if you in the past, you would
• 11:03
  apprehend people and if they were determined them to be Mexico, you would send
• 11:07
  them back into Mexico. They were determined to be from another country or otms
• 11:11
  as as they're they're called, you would process and then send them to detention
• 11:16
  caps so they could ship them back out to their sending country. Unless there
• 11:20
  was some some circumstance where they were the judge would would cut them loose,
• 11:26
  you know from the incension facility at that point. I mean, you did
• 11:28
  your part, but the judge cut them loose. So you know, that's
• 11:31
  the way it worked. If Mexican immigration got involved and you were trying to
• 11:37
  send people back that were from let's say Venezuela or Columbia so most like,
• 11:41
  and they questioned them and they determined that they were from most kindes, they
• 11:43
  bring them back to you and say, hey, they're not Mexicans, they're
• 11:46
  they're from somewhere else, and so you have to process them, and you
• 11:48
  know, go that the the OTM route and so, and in the break,
• 11:52
  I said to you, so, why isn't that Mexico's problem, that
• 11:58
  that these people are crossing their southern border illegally or entering their country illegally.
• 12:05
  The origination point is Mexico, so it's their problem. And your answer was,
• 12:11
  well, there's probably some backdoor dealing there. I mean, and look
• 12:15
  who's in power in Mexico. You know, Lopus over so there's you know,
• 12:20
  there's a similar mindset between the guy in the White House and overalload in
• 12:26
  Mexico. So you know there's a lot of politics and you know going on
• 12:28
  there, and so you know, backdoor deals. I mean, you never
• 12:33
  know what's what what else is going on and who who benefits from this?
• 12:37
  Right because I mean think about the monetary costs that these people are paying,
• 12:41
  or somebody is paying these cartel members and word is you know, that's a
• 12:45
  lot of money. That's a ton of money, you know, a thousand
• 12:48
  in a day and multiplatform was whatever a monk they're charging, you know,
• 12:52
  people from from those African countries or from or from Venezuela. It's a lot
• 12:56
  of money that's changing hands. Yeah, we mentioned earlier in the week perhaps
• 13:01
  it was even last week. The researchers are determined one hundred and seventy five
• 13:05
  thousand employees or in the cartels. And that does not include people being paid
• 13:09
  like government officials, law enforcement officials under the table. And they're not in
• 13:15
  the business of loss leaders. Everything they do makes them money. Oh yeah,
• 13:20
  I mean again. I mean in the past, we have we apprehended
• 13:24
  Central Americans, even South Americans. It was an excess of five thousand dollars.
• 13:28
  You know, someone in next ten and in Chinese nationals or twenty on
• 13:33
  up. So imagine what the cost is now and how much money is really
• 13:39
  being made. Let's close with this this one here, let's just for giggles,
• 13:43
  say that we have a different administration. Maybe it's Trump, maybe it's
• 13:48
  Ryan De Santis, maybe it's NICKI Haley. Who knows who it might be.
• 13:52
  But we have a very different person in the White House in two years.
• 13:56
  And they just for some reason, they heard about our segments, they
• 14:00
  heard about you. They said, I want I want that guy Jeseus Rodriguez
• 14:03
  to sit down next to me and offer me some thoughts. What's the most
• 14:07
  effective things we ought to be doing to turn this situation around? You got
• 14:13
  to shut everything DOWNPRESS, and you have to shut that border down completely.
• 14:16
  You got to bring in some of that technology that the military has in order
• 14:20
  to detect people. You have to let agents do what agents are supposed to
• 14:26
  do. Agents are not supposed to be picking up people, you know,
• 14:30
  for their entire shift, processing them and get into to the stations and then
• 14:33
  coming back down and doing the same thing all over again. So they're not
• 14:35
  working the traffic. They're basically, you know, glorified bus drivers, you
• 14:41
  know, transporting people from pointing to point B. And so you know that
• 14:46
  that's happening, and you have to you have got to shut it down.
• 14:48
  PRESS there. You don't there's no other way to it. And like I
• 14:52
  said, military technology would work. Let the agents do what they're supposed to
• 14:56
  do out there. Unleash the agents and let them do it, you know,
• 15:01
  within the law, and have them. And then on top of that,
• 15:03
  if you're getting people from this from the OTMS, process them. If
• 15:07
  they don't have that credible fear, if it's not you know, it doesn't
• 15:11
  look like it's credible, put them on the next plaining, send them back
• 15:13
  to their countries. I guarantee that it's as you structing the people back to
• 15:16
  the countries where they came from. This will start to trickle down, but
• 15:22
  this is not happening, so they're all coming and more on their way.
• 15:24
  As always, we never have enough time, but I sure appreciate the time
• 15:28
  we get. A zus, thanks so very much. I appreciate your service
• 15:31
  to our country. We'll talk again soon, thank you. Okay, all
• 15:33
  right, Jesus Rodriguez with US US Border Patrol retired. When we come back,
• 15:39
  Peter Schweitzer scheduled to jump on board the phone lines with US. We'll
• 15:43
  talk about the Biden bribery problem. Next to the Morning Show with Preston Scott
