Latest / Wicked Radio with Bill Adams / 10-13: Will Ilhan Omar Be The First US Rep Ever Deported?
Transcript
- 0:04Speaker 1: Just after the live stream yesterday, you guys have been
- 0:07Speaker 1: with me for a while, kind of like check out
- 0:09Speaker 1: the news after we're live and see what's going on.
- 0:12Speaker 1: Sure enough, this story broke yesterday late morning, but 6 a.m.
- 0:16Speaker 1: Minnesota time yesterday, they raided federal investigators and DHS raided
- 0:21Speaker 1: the home of Representative Ilhan Omar. Usually these kinds of
- 0:27Speaker 1: things will happen before the midterms, whatever, but the Department
- 0:29Speaker 1: of Justice, as we're about to learn, usually doesn't like
- 0:32Speaker 1: to press charges or sign off on things like this
- 0:35Speaker 1: before an election for obvious reasons. You don't want to
- 0:38Speaker 1: show anything. So you've got to figure, well, there's something
- 0:40Speaker 1: behind this. We've known for a while that there have
- 0:42Speaker 1: been allegations of her marrying her husband. That was one
- 0:44Speaker 1: sort of thing. The immigration fraud, that was another thing.
- 0:48Speaker 1: And you're about to find out what I just found
- 0:50Speaker 1: out a little while ago, that this is something way,
- 0:53Speaker 1: way bigger than that. In fact, there's the chair of
- 0:57Speaker 1: the House Intelligence Committee who made a statement yesterday that
- 0:59Speaker 1: made me go, oh, hold on a second. This is
- 1:03Speaker 1: a lot bigger than what anybody thought as of yesterday.
- 1:06Speaker 1: You're about to hear from him too because I got
- 1:08Speaker 1: the clip of what he had to say and I
- 1:09Speaker 1: had to listen to the entire interview. We may actually have,
- 1:12Speaker 1: this is a legitimate question now. It's never happened. Will
- 1:16Speaker 1: we see the first deportation.
- 1:18Speaker 2: Of a U.S.
- 1:19Speaker 1: Representative in the Ilhan Omar case? It's an actual real possibility. Again,
- 1:24Speaker 1: not just speculation or the political talking heads and the
- 1:27Speaker 1: suits and the commentators and the influencers and all the
- 1:29Speaker 1: surrogates making their comments on podcasts yesterday. No, this is
- 1:33Speaker 1: the chair of the House Intelligence Committee proposing that.
- 1:39Speaker 3: Wow.
- 1:40Speaker 1: Yes, it's politics. I get it. But it's also a
- 1:42Speaker 1: little bit of history here. And it's a legitimate question.
- 1:44Speaker 1: Let's get to it. Thanks for finding me. I appreciate you.
- 1:46Speaker 1: I'm sorry it's politics, but that's these days. We can't
- 1:49Speaker 1: ignore the news. We don't write the rules. We just
- 1:50Speaker 1: try to ask some questions about it. Thanks for finding
- 1:52Speaker 1: the live stream. Wicked Radio Live on X and YouTube
- 1:55Speaker 1: and Facebook and the replay on those networks and channels,
- 1:57Speaker 1: whatever you like to do. Even easier. Audio podcast uploaded
- 2:02Speaker 1: shortly after the live stream on all your favorite audio
- 2:04Speaker 1: podcast platforms. Let's get to the background. If you didn't
- 2:07Speaker 1: see too much of this, you know, you're trying to
- 2:08Speaker 1: live an actual life and you're not paying attention to
- 2:10Speaker 1: these things. This is Fox News on the scene a
- 2:13Speaker 1: couple of hours after it happened because apparently they were
- 2:15Speaker 1: able to keep this a secret to everybody. This is
- 2:17Speaker 1: David Spunt from Fox News. Just some of the scant
- 2:21Speaker 1: details of why they were there. This was 24 hours ago.
- 2:24Speaker 2: This happened a little bit shortly after 6 o'clock this
- 2:26Speaker 2: morning here at Congresswoman Omar's home in Washington, D.C. It's
- 2:31Speaker 2: unclear if she's home at this time. It does not
- 2:33Speaker 2: appear so because we've been out here for several hours
- 2:36Speaker 2: now after this happened. You can see on scene behind me,
- 2:39Speaker 2: there are several investigators from Homeland Security Investigations. I'm going
- 2:43Speaker 2: to back out of the way. Homeland Security Investigations, they
- 2:46Speaker 2: go by HSI. They are on scene. Also told that
- 2:50Speaker 2: DOJ involved in this investigation. We don't have details, guys, specifically.
- 2:55Speaker 1: Ah, they start using the alphabet letters. DOJ, Department of Justice, DHS, investigators,
- 3:01Speaker 1: this is like, that's enough right there. You would look
- 3:03Speaker 1: at this story and you go, wow, well, that's something.
- 3:05Speaker 1: We've seen a lot of investigations, and we all remember
- 3:08Speaker 1: the Mar-a-Lago raid, and then down in Broward County, Florida,
- 3:12Speaker 1: they had raided Roger Stone's house a few years ago.
- 3:15Speaker 1: You know, that part of it we've seen before. It's
- 3:19Speaker 1: a little bit different, as you're about to hear. Now,
- 3:21Speaker 1: a little bit of background about Ilhan Omar. Somali-born, came
- 3:25Speaker 1: to this country, became a U.S.
- 3:26Speaker 2: Rep.
- 3:27Speaker 1: She's probably, by the way, let's get this out of
- 3:29Speaker 1: the way. This probably isn't enough to knock her, unless
- 3:31Speaker 1: they file charges right now, knock her out of this race.
- 3:34Speaker 1: There were already rallies last night in support of her.
- 3:36Speaker 1: We stand with Elon. And, you know, of course, CNN
- 3:39Speaker 1: was jumping up and down defending her. And this is
- 3:41Speaker 1: just political stuff and all that other crap. A little
- 3:44Speaker 1: bit background about her. There have been the allegations about
- 3:47Speaker 1: her marrying her husband. That's one thing. That's what we
- 3:49Speaker 1: all thought this raid was about yesterday. I think it's
- 3:51Speaker 1: a little bit deeper. She's been defiant, saying this is
- 3:54Speaker 1: all politically motivated. She's done Many, many media interviews saying,
- 4:00Speaker 1: go ahead, you've got nothing on me. Here's a little
- 4:01Speaker 1: example of that.
- 4:02Speaker 3: No, I mean, and I, listen, suggest all you want.
- 4:08Speaker 3: Please investigate all you want, right? Like, to me, I'm not,
- 4:11Speaker 3: I'm not, like, I'm above the law.
- 4:15Speaker 1: Well, all righty, there you go. Wasn't too afraid of
- 4:18Speaker 1: too much. So that was before they started to look
- 4:21Speaker 1: into and Doge looked into all the fraud in Minnesota
- 4:24Speaker 1: and then, And that's why this is so interesting is
- 4:26Speaker 1: because it's a fraud investigation and also some sordid stuff
- 4:29Speaker 1: in her personal life, but also it gets way, way,
- 4:32Speaker 1: way deeper than that, apparently. And this is the one
- 4:36Speaker 1: that caught my attention. I started to see, I'd never
- 4:38Speaker 1: really been aware of this guy, and maybe you're not either.
- 4:40Speaker 1: I started to see this trending. Representative Rick Crawford from Arizona,
- 4:46Speaker 1: from Arkansas, excuse me.
- 4:47Speaker 3: Okay.
- 4:48Speaker 1: Who's he? He made a statement that said, She should
- 4:52Speaker 1: be deported. I'll support that. And this goes way deeper
- 4:54Speaker 1: than that. It's a much bigger, this is a criminal
- 4:56Speaker 1: investigation about a criminal enterprise. I said, all right, whoa,
- 5:02Speaker 1: I need to find out more about this guy and
- 5:04Speaker 1: what he's saying. So I went to the original source because,
- 5:05Speaker 1: you know, these things can be taken out of context
- 5:07Speaker 1: and they can be edited together and, you know, for
- 5:10Speaker 1: someone's needs. So I went to the original interview. Lo
- 5:12Speaker 1: and behold, it was on podcaster Benny Johnson's show. And
- 5:16Speaker 1: this is the first thing of what he said. And
- 5:18Speaker 1: this is where I looked into a little bit deeper
- 5:20Speaker 1: and I said, this is potentially massive. This isn't just
- 5:24Speaker 1: playing politics. This isn't just about marrying her brother, although
- 5:27Speaker 1: that would be bad enough. Here's what Representative Rick Crawford said,
- 5:32Speaker 1: the beginning of it, then we'll get to the rest
- 5:33Speaker 1: of it. The chair of the House Intelligence Committee yesterday,
- 5:36Speaker 1: this isn't just some blowhard.
- 5:39Speaker 4: Without assimilation is invasion. And Ilhan Omar... is the patriarch
- 5:46Speaker 4: of a criminal enterprise. Whether you deport her or not,
- 5:51Speaker 4: she needs to go to jail.
- 5:52Speaker 3: Okay.
- 5:53Speaker 1: Well, there's the first part. And Benny Johnson did a
- 5:55Speaker 1: good job. And he said, those are strong. Benny Johnson
- 5:58Speaker 1: even said, those are strong words. You know, you want
- 6:00Speaker 1: to defend that? And I understand Benny Johnson is one
- 6:02Speaker 1: of the Trump surrogates. He's definitely, you know, biased in
- 6:04Speaker 1: this whole thing. But this is an elected representative himself
- 6:08Speaker 1: who knows her well and is saying this from the
- 6:11Speaker 1: House Intelligence Committee. And he wrapped it up by saying this.
- 6:15Speaker 4: Let me tell you what I know about, for example,
- 6:17Speaker 4: the recruitment of ISIS in the Western Hemisphere. The number
- 6:22Speaker 4: one location for recruitment of ISIS fighters at the height
- 6:25Speaker 4: of ISIS operations was Trinidad and Tobago. The number two
- 6:29Speaker 4: was Ilhan Omar's district. So is she a counterterrorism threat?
- 6:33Speaker 3: Yes.
- 6:34Speaker 4: She should have never been elected to Congress. She wasn't
- 6:35Speaker 4: properly vetted. She should have never been allowed to be
- 6:38Speaker 4: a citizen. So absolutely, she's a counterterrorism threat. And you
- 6:42Speaker 4: mentioned in an earlier segment, that remittances to Somalia are
- 6:47Speaker 4: pretty much what drives their economy. Where do the bulk
- 6:50Speaker 4: of those remittances come from? Ilhan Omar's congressional district.
- 6:55Speaker 1: Okay, now you know what I mean. Now you know
- 6:58Speaker 1: why I looked up Representative Rick Crawford, the chair of
- 7:01Speaker 1: the House Intelligence Committee, and what he was saying about her.
- 7:04Speaker 1: Strong words, that's not a good description. I didn't even
- 7:07Speaker 1: do it justice to describe it that way. This guy
- 7:09Speaker 1: is pushing for the entire thing, which leads you to
- 7:12Speaker 1: believe that There's something way, way more behind this than
- 7:17Speaker 1: what we thought just yesterday. And then I found something
- 7:19Speaker 1: else interesting. Then this started to leak out. So I
- 7:22Speaker 1: guess they like to, you know, call these investigations a
- 7:25Speaker 1: certain name. And I found out that this was the
- 7:29Speaker 1: name of this raid, apparently with DHS or, you know,
- 7:33Speaker 1: Homeland Security officials or whatever it was. This particular raid,
- 7:37Speaker 1: the code name for it is World War 11. I
- 7:40Speaker 1: didn't understand that. I also had to look that one up.
- 7:42Speaker 1: And here's our answer.
- 7:44Speaker 3: The last time the Alien Enemies Act was invoked, it
- 7:48Speaker 3: was used to detain and deport German, Japanese, Italian immigrants
- 7:54Speaker 3: doing World War XI. Oh, two.
- 7:59Speaker 1: She corrected herself. Apparently in the halls of the administration,
- 8:03Speaker 1: they've been laughing at that for some time, which is
- 8:05Speaker 1: why they called it this one. All right, so she
- 8:08Speaker 1: has to make a statement, right?
- 8:09Speaker 5: Of course.
- 8:10Speaker 1: Wasn't a which was another surprising thing for her because
- 8:12Speaker 1: she is always, always doing interviews. This was a written
- 8:16Speaker 1: statement released on social media just yesterday. So here's the
- 8:21Speaker 1: here's the statement from her. And then this was on
- 8:24Speaker 1: a Fox News segment later they have. They read her statement,
- 8:27Speaker 1: and then they go to President Trump to get a
- 8:29Speaker 1: statement from him. So here's both of those segments.
- 8:31Speaker 6: Line quote, I'm okay. Make no mistake, this is an
- 8:35Speaker 6: attempt to target political enemies and weaponize federal law enforcement.
- 8:39Speaker 6: For 10 years, Trump has targeted me with baseless lies
- 8:42Speaker 6: and smear campaigns. President Trump yesterday responded to questions about
- 8:46Speaker 6: this search.
- 8:47Speaker 1: Here he goes. Here's the president's response. See, this makes
- 8:49Speaker 1: it like item number 15 of why this is interesting,
- 8:52Speaker 1: why I think there's something way, way deeper and darker
- 8:54Speaker 1: behind this entire thing.
- 8:55Speaker 2: And Trump said it right there.
- 9:10Speaker 1: Now, if you want to look at this from a politics,
- 9:12Speaker 1: a political perspective, it's kind of brilliant. He says, I've
- 9:15Speaker 1: got nothing to do with it. I don't like her
- 9:16Speaker 1: for sure, but this is up to the DOJ. But
- 9:19Speaker 1: is he right? Is he factually correct about that? Is
- 9:22Speaker 1: this just has nothing to do with him? The Department
- 9:25Speaker 1: of Justice signed off on this, which apparently what I
- 9:28Speaker 1: also learned yesterday was they don't like to do this
- 9:30Speaker 1: in elections, near elections. They don't like to do it
- 9:32Speaker 1: because it makes the DOJ look politically motivated, blah, blah, blah,
- 9:36Speaker 1: you know, whatever. They'll do it after or way before
- 9:39Speaker 1: an election, but, you know, not that. Is Trump right
- 9:41Speaker 1: about that? Does it really have nothing to do with him?
- 9:45Speaker 1: Listen to this guy. This is CNN last night as
- 9:47Speaker 1: they went on and tried to defend her, and this
- 9:49Speaker 1: is just politics, and this is Trump out to get her,
- 9:51Speaker 1: and this and that. Well, they have a panelist on there,
- 9:53Speaker 1: this Republican guy. He says, wait a second. You got
- 9:56Speaker 1: to look at the judge, the magistrates who signed off
- 9:59Speaker 1: on this and how are they linked? This is very interesting.
- 10:04Speaker 5: In reality, there's been a lot of questions about what's
- 10:06Speaker 5: happened with daycare center in Minnesota and what extent she
- 10:09Speaker 5: was wrapped up in that. So there's a lot out
- 10:11Speaker 5: there that we don't know about, but we do know
- 10:13Speaker 5: that a judge signed off on it and a DC
- 10:15Speaker 5: magistrate judge, they're four, they're all Democrats. So Democrat judge
- 10:18Speaker 5: signed off on this warrant and this search. And so
- 10:21Speaker 5: I think there's a lot potentially here that we aren't
- 10:24Speaker 5: really understanding yet.
- 10:26Speaker 1: You didn't really see that or hear that there, but
- 10:27Speaker 1: then they flashed right back to, it was the end
- 10:29Speaker 1: of the clip, they flashed right back to the other
- 10:31Speaker 1: CNN panelists. It was like, You can read on their faces, uh-oh,
- 10:36Speaker 1: he makes a good point. Trump's point saying it's really
- 10:40Speaker 1: up to the DOJ, the Department of Justice, and magistrates
- 10:44Speaker 1: in Washington, D.C., who are political Democrats, signed off on
- 10:48Speaker 1: this thing. I don't think they do that. I think
- 10:52Speaker 1: we can gather this. They don't do that unless they
- 10:53Speaker 1: know that this is something very, very serious. And you
- 10:57Speaker 1: go back to what that Representative Rick Crawford from Arkansas
- 11:01Speaker 1: had said. the chair of the House Intelligence Committee. An
- 11:05Speaker 1: investigation as she is the spearhead, the figurehead of a
- 11:10Speaker 1: large criminal organization. And he was the guy that mentioned
- 11:16Speaker 1: ISIS in there even. This is not just fraud, although
- 11:19Speaker 1: maybe that's tied to it. He was the guy that
- 11:21Speaker 1: actually brought this up. It's a fair question. I'll ask
- 11:24Speaker 1: it again. This is our question today. Are we going,
- 11:27Speaker 1: is it, let me see. Will we see the deportation
- 11:32Speaker 1: The first ever deportation of a United States representative. All
- 11:37Speaker 1: we know at this point, this is absolutely, completely, totally
- 11:41Speaker 1: within the realm of possibility. And you may have been
- 11:43Speaker 1: like me. Yesterday, I see this story. We get off
- 11:45Speaker 1: the live stream. I'm looking at it going, oh, wow, huh,
- 11:48Speaker 1: that's interesting. Wow, they're raiding Ilhan Omar's home. She wasn't there,
- 11:52Speaker 1: but they're raiding. They're looking for something. As the day
- 11:55Speaker 1: went on and you find very prominent and influential people
- 11:59Speaker 1: saying what they're saying about this and what may be involved,
- 12:02Speaker 1: And then you find out that, I don't know if
- 12:04Speaker 1: they can claim that it's politically motivated if D.C. magistrate
- 12:07Speaker 1: Democrat judges had signed off on this order. It's a
- 12:14Speaker 1: real possibility. Real possibility. A little bit more on her.
- 12:18Speaker 1: You might have heard the first time you ever heard
- 12:20Speaker 1: the name Ilhan Omar might have been this famous statement
- 12:22Speaker 1: from a few years ago. This is how she felt
- 12:24Speaker 1: about 9-11. You remember this one? This is one of
- 12:27Speaker 1: those clips. I remember playing this back on Radio Days
- 12:30Speaker 1: and at I could not believe it was even reality.
- 12:32Speaker 1: I thought it was a prank. I thought it was
- 12:34Speaker 1: a fake video at first.
- 12:35Speaker 5: No.
- 12:36Speaker 1: No, it happened.
- 12:36Speaker 3: They recognized that some people did something and that all
- 12:41Speaker 3: of us were starting to lose access to our civil liberties.
- 12:46Speaker 1: That was her take on 9-11. Hadn't spoken about it since,
- 12:48Speaker 1: by the way, but that was a few years ago.
- 12:50Speaker 1: Some people did some things. Some things. All righty then.
- 12:54Speaker 1: There you go. Will it happen? I don't know. Something
- 12:57Speaker 1: to keep an eye on, though. That is for sure.
- 12:59Speaker 1: This is uncharted territory. We've never seen a U.S. rep deported,
- 13:03Speaker 1: but it may even go beyond the deportation issue. How
- 13:07Speaker 1: deep is the fraud and possible terror ties in that
- 13:12Speaker 1: part of the country, in the heartland of the country,
- 13:15Speaker 1: the plains of Minnesota?
- 13:17Speaker 3: Wow.
- 13:18Speaker 1: Unbelievable. This is why you have to ask questions. Thanks
- 13:20Speaker 1: for doing that with me. I appreciate you. Wicked Radio
