Transcript
- 0:00[SPEAKER_00]: The liberal globalist order is on its brink and awakening a new conservative age.
- 0:06[SPEAKER_00]: Dr. Steve Turley joined me every day as we discover answers to today's toughest challenges and explore the re-bondalization of conservative civilization.
- 0:18[SPEAKER_00]: This is Turley Talks.
- 0:20[SPEAKER_00]: What if I told you that the same rioters who burned and looted Portland for a hundred and seventy straight nights in twenty twenty?
- 0:29[SPEAKER_00]: Just got a reality check that shattered their entire world view.
- 0:34[SPEAKER_00]: Now while these professional agitators expected to pick up where they left off, they instead were met with a wall of federal officers who weren't playing games anymore.
- 0:45[SPEAKER_00]: And that this moment perfectly captures exactly how President Trump is dismantling the social decayed Democrats have infested in America's cities.
- 0:56[SPEAKER_00]: This isn't just about Portland.
- 0:58[SPEAKER_00]: This is about the complete reversal of years of progressive urban lawlessness, because while legacy media remains fixated on manufactured controversies and frauds,
- 1:09[SPEAKER_00]: Trump's administration is quietly unleashing a law enforcement revolution that's turning Democrats strongholds from criminal havens back in a safe community's one city at a time.
- 1:27[SPEAKER_00]: July, twenty twenty five outside Portland's is facility.
- 1:32[SPEAKER_00]: The same crown of antifa militants and professional protesters who terrorize the city night after night in twenty twenty
- 1:40[SPEAKER_00]: showed up expecting business as usual.
- 1:43[SPEAKER_00]: They brought their Molotov cocktails, their laser pointers, their coordinated chance about fascism, the whole playbook that worked so well when Democrat politicians told police to stand down all those years ago.
- 1:56[SPEAKER_00]: But to their utter shock, this time was radically different.
- 2:21[SPEAKER_00]: Federal agents weren't just standing behind barriers anymore.
- 2:25[SPEAKER_00]: They were making arrests.
- 2:27[SPEAKER_00]: They were using flash bang grenades in pepper spray without hesitation.
- 2:31[SPEAKER_00]: When rioters tried to break into federal property or assault officers, consequences came swift and hard.
- 2:39[SPEAKER_00]: The shock on their faces was priceless.
- 2:42[SPEAKER_00]: These are the same people spent months in the twenty twenty, literally setting fire to courthouses, attacking federal officers with commercial grade fireworks and vandalizing buildings with zero accountability.
- 2:56[SPEAKER_00]: But the fact that these protesters so quickly melt it down, so quickly retreated and ran away, reveals something crucial.
- 3:05[SPEAKER_00]: These aren't serious political activists.
- 3:08[SPEAKER_00]: They're attention, starved, lost individuals who've never faced real consequences for their criminal behavior.
- 3:17[SPEAKER_00]: Here's the broader picture, Democrats don't want you to see.
- 3:21[SPEAKER_00]: Trump's executive orders have fundamentally changed how law enforcement operates in blue cities throughout the country.
- 3:29[SPEAKER_00]: His strengthening and unleashing America's law enforcement executive order from April provides legal defense and indemnification for officers who enforce the law.
- 3:40[SPEAKER_00]: It directs federal resources to train local police and aggressive tactics while protecting them from frivolous lawsuits.
- 3:48[SPEAKER_00]: And the results, they frankly speak for themselves.
- 3:52[SPEAKER_00]: While Portland saw a hundred and seventy-plus nights of riots in twenty-twenty with minimal federal response initially.
- 3:59[SPEAKER_00]: Twenty-twenty-five's protests are literally being shut down within hours.
- 4:06[SPEAKER_00]: federal agents are on the scene immediately, not weeks later.
- 4:11[SPEAKER_00]: Multiple felony arrests happen with every single incident.
- 4:16[SPEAKER_00]: but Portland represents something even bigger.
- 4:20[SPEAKER_00]: The systematic failure of Democrat governance.
- 4:24[SPEAKER_00]: Oregon's drug decriminalization experiment passed back in twenty twenty, it turned the city into an open-air drug market.
- 4:32[SPEAKER_00]: Overdo's desk spiked nearly fifty percent after Democrats decriminalized hard drugs.
- 4:38[SPEAKER_00]: Public drug use became so rampant that even liberal Oregon Democrats admitted the policy failed
- 4:45[SPEAKER_00]: and move to recriminalize possession this year.
- 4:49[SPEAKER_00]: The numbers are staggering under Democrat leadership.
- 4:52[SPEAKER_00]: Cities consistently rank among America's most dangerous and violent places.
- 4:57[SPEAKER_00]: Cities such as St.
- 4:58[SPEAKER_00]: Louis, Baltimore Detroit, all Democrat controlled.
- 5:01[SPEAKER_00]: continue dominating the murder capital rankings.
- 5:04[SPEAKER_00]: This isn't coincidence.
- 5:07[SPEAKER_00]: It's the predictable result to Democrat policies that prioritize criminals over victims.
- 5:13[SPEAKER_00]: Portland Sanctuary City status backed by organs in nineteen eighty seven sanctuary law, actively obstructs federal immigration enforcement.
- 5:22[SPEAKER_00]: The city refuses to cooperate with ice even when dealing with violent criminals.
- 5:27[SPEAKER_00]: Mayor Keith Wilson, he proudly declares Portland, will not obstruct lawful federal enforcement operations while simultaneously refusing to cooperate with ICE agents and fighting Trump's funding cuts for sanctuary cities.
- 5:42[SPEAKER_00]: Trump's response has been surgical and effective.
- 5:45[SPEAKER_00]: His immigration enforcement operations.
- 5:48[SPEAKER_00]: They are arresting migrants right outside immigration courts, illegal migrants, right outside immigration courts.
- 5:55[SPEAKER_00]: So people showed up for required hearings.
- 5:58[SPEAKER_00]: They end up getting detained and placed in expedited removal proceedings.
- 6:03[SPEAKER_00]: Ice arrests have jumped two hundred and sixty five percent in Oregon just over the last six months as federal agents finally have backing to do their jobs.
- 6:14[SPEAKER_00]: The contrast simply could not be starker.
- 6:17[SPEAKER_00]: In twenty twenty, Democrat politicians like Mayor Ted Wheeler called federal officers heavy handed and claimed their presence
- 6:25[SPEAKER_00]: blew the lid off their peaceful protests.
- 6:28[SPEAKER_00]: I kid you not.
- 6:29[SPEAKER_00]: City counselors demanded policies restricting local police from cooperating with federal agents.
- 6:36[SPEAKER_00]: The result months of violence billions of dollars in damage and a city reputation so damaged that people fled in droves.
- 6:46[SPEAKER_00]: Now Portland protesters face immediate arrest federal charges and real consequences.
- 6:54[SPEAKER_00]: The psychological impact on them is obvious.
- 6:57[SPEAKER_00]: These career agitators, they simply weren't prepared for real law enforcement in Trump's Golden Age.
- 7:04[SPEAKER_00]: When you spend years believing police or your enemy in that woke Marx's ideology will protect you, suddenly facing professional federal agents who aren't bound by local politicians handcuffs creates genuine panic.
- 7:19[SPEAKER_00]: The broader trends are unmistakable.
- 7:22[SPEAKER_00]: Crime rates in major cities are dropping dramatically.
- 7:27[SPEAKER_00]: Homicides are down seventeen percent the first half of twenty twenty five is compared to twenty twenty four.
- 7:33[SPEAKER_00]: Motor vehicle thefts fell twenty five percent.
- 7:35[SPEAKER_00]: Robries decrease twenty percent and aggravated assaults drop ten percent.
- 7:40[SPEAKER_00]: This is Trump's golden age.
- 7:42[SPEAKER_00]: This is happening as Trump's law enforcement policies are taking effect
- 7:47[SPEAKER_00]: and federal agents begin supporting local police rather than being constrained by Democrat politicians.
- 7:55[SPEAKER_00]: Make no mistake here.
- 7:58[SPEAKER_00]: This isn't just about immigration enforcement, a riot control.
- 8:02[SPEAKER_00]: It's about restoring the basic social contract that Democrats have spent years undermining and destroying when criminal's face consequences, crime decreases.
- 8:13[SPEAKER_00]: When law enforcement has support rather than demonization, communities become safer.
- 8:19[SPEAKER_00]: When federal agents can do their jobs without political interference, results follow literally immediately.
- 8:29[SPEAKER_00]: Portland's transformation from Riot torn wasteland to a city where federal law gets enforced represents everything Trump promised.
- 8:37[SPEAKER_00]: Democrats created the problem through soft on crime policies, sanctuary city obstructionism, and explicit support for defund the police movements.
- 8:47[SPEAKER_00]: Trump, by contrast, is systematically dismantling their failed experiment and replacing it with proven law and order principles.
- 8:58[SPEAKER_00]: The protesters shock and confusion this summer perfectly captures the moment when progressive fantasy meets conservative reality.
- 9:08[SPEAKER_00]: For five years, they operated in a consequence free environment where Democrat politicians protected their right to resist.
- 9:18[SPEAKER_00]: That era has just ended.
- 9:21[SPEAKER_00]: And the tantrum throwing performance art activism were witnessing is their desperate attempt to maintain relevance in a world where their actions finally have consequences.
- 9:34[SPEAKER_00]: This is our America.
- 9:39[SPEAKER_00]: Trump's America, where federal law gets enforced, where criminals get arrested, and where professional agitators discover that real law enforcement doesn't negotiate with terrorism.
- 9:53[SPEAKER_00]: Portland's cleaning up, and it's just beginning.
