[00:00:28] [SPEAKER_01]: Let me passacky back to the topic that I had actually prepped for the first hour of the

[00:00:34] [SPEAKER_01]: show, and I started down the path.

[00:00:35] [SPEAKER_01]: I'm not going to go back over the ganged war story.

[00:00:39] [SPEAKER_01]: You can listen to the first hour of the podcast at thepeekcalinershow.com or WBT.com, get the

[00:00:44] [SPEAKER_01]: podcast that's totally free because right to your smartphone or tablet.

[00:00:47] [SPEAKER_01]: Anyway, I'm going to passacky back to this topic because there was actually something

[00:00:52] [SPEAKER_01]: of newsworthiness to note here, and that is House Resolution 7909.

[00:01:00] [SPEAKER_01]: That was passed yesterday.

[00:01:02] [SPEAKER_01]: House Resolution 7909.

[00:01:07] [SPEAKER_01]: It's title, The Violence Against Women by Illegal Aliens Act or the Vauhia, the VAW, O-B-I-A-A-A.

[00:01:24] [SPEAKER_01]: Violence Against Women by Illegal Aliens Act.

[00:01:27] [SPEAKER_01]: It was actually introduced by Nancy Mace Republican from South Carolina, and it passed

[00:01:32] [SPEAKER_01]: the bill would require the federal government to deport illegal immigrants who have a

[00:01:40] [SPEAKER_01]: criminal history involving domestic violence and sex offenses.

[00:01:46] [SPEAKER_01]: That's what the bill does.

[00:01:48] [SPEAKER_01]: Requires the federal government to deport illegal immigrants who have a criminal history

[00:01:54] [SPEAKER_01]: involving domestic violence and sex offenses.

[00:01:59] [SPEAKER_01]: It passed the House by a vote of 266 to 158, 268 to 158 with 51 Democrats joining

[00:02:09] [SPEAKER_01]: every Republican to advance the measure.

[00:02:13] [SPEAKER_01]: All 158 no votes were Democrats.

[00:02:17] [SPEAKER_01]: Who are very, very interested in protecting women's health.

[00:02:23] [SPEAKER_01]: You see, the legislation would amend the Immigration and Nationality Act so that aliens

[00:02:30] [SPEAKER_01]: convicted of or who have committed sex offenses or domestic violence, they would be classified

[00:02:38] [SPEAKER_01]: as quote in admissible and deportable.

[00:02:42] [SPEAKER_01]: Okay?

[00:02:44] [SPEAKER_01]: In an op-ed that Nancy Mace, the sponsor of the bill, that she wrote for the post and career

[00:02:50] [SPEAKER_01]: down in Charleston, she said it's about common sense.

[00:02:55] [SPEAKER_01]: A trait sorely lacking in Washington these days.

[00:02:58] [SPEAKER_01]: The bill ensures predators who pose a threat and have been previously convicted of sexual

[00:03:03] [SPEAKER_01]: assault, domestic violence, and other heinous crimes are turned away or immediately deported.

[00:03:08] [SPEAKER_01]: The legislation makes sure those who pose a threat are kicked out before they can cause

[00:03:14] [SPEAKER_01]: more harm.

[00:03:15] [SPEAKER_01]: It's time to stop coddling criminals and start standing up for the innocent victims who

[00:03:20] [SPEAKER_01]: deserve justice and families who deserve peace of mind.

[00:03:25] [SPEAKER_01]: So as I mentioned, every Republican voted for this so all of the North Carolina delegates

[00:03:30] [SPEAKER_01]: they all voted for it.

[00:03:33] [SPEAKER_01]: But I also mentioned that 51 Democrats voted for it.

[00:03:37] [SPEAKER_01]: Who were they in North Carolina?

[00:03:38] [SPEAKER_01]: Glad you asked.

[00:03:40] [SPEAKER_01]: I went and looked it up.

[00:03:42] [SPEAKER_01]: Kathy Manning, Wiley Nickel, Deborah Ross, Jeff Jackson, aka the baby Jesus, and Don Davis.

[00:03:53] [SPEAKER_01]: All Democrats who voted for the bill.

[00:03:57] [SPEAKER_01]: There were two Democrats who voted against the bill.

[00:04:01] [SPEAKER_01]: Alma Adams and Valerie Fushi.

[00:04:06] [SPEAKER_01]: Why would people be opposed to this?

[00:04:08] [SPEAKER_01]: Pete.

[00:04:08] [SPEAKER_01]: Oh, glad you asked that, too.

[00:04:11] [SPEAKER_01]: How's judiciary committee ranking member Jerry Nadler, Democrat from New York?

[00:04:16] [SPEAKER_01]: He called the legislation a Republican attempt to scapegoat and fear monger among immigrants.

[00:04:25] [SPEAKER_01]: How is it scapegoating and fear mongering to kick out rapists?

[00:04:30] [SPEAKER_01]: I don't understand that.

[00:04:31] [SPEAKER_01]: If you get convicted, that's the key here.

[00:04:34] [SPEAKER_01]: You've been convicted, you're a convicted criminal for sexual assault or domestic violence against

[00:04:43] [SPEAKER_01]: the female here.

[00:04:44] [SPEAKER_01]: If you're convicted of these things, you're out.

[00:04:47] [SPEAKER_01]: You don't get to hang around.

[00:04:49] [SPEAKER_01]: How is that scapegoating?

[00:04:52] [SPEAKER_01]: How is that fear mongering?

[00:04:56] [SPEAKER_01]: He says sexual offenses and domestic violence are serious crimes.

[00:05:00] [SPEAKER_01]: Oh, okay.

[00:05:00] [SPEAKER_01]: Well, at least we agree on that.

[00:05:01] [SPEAKER_01]: We can come together.

[00:05:03] [SPEAKER_01]: We can find points of agreement.

[00:05:06] [SPEAKER_01]: He said, if this bill fixed some gap in the current law,

[00:05:10] [SPEAKER_01]: I would have no problem supporting this legislation.

[00:05:13] [SPEAKER_01]: But that is not the case here.

[00:05:15] [SPEAKER_01]: In reality, the redundancies in this bill all but assure that no additional dangerous individuals

[00:05:22] [SPEAKER_01]: would face immigration consequences if it were to become law.

[00:05:27] [SPEAKER_01]: This is one of those arguments that I've never understood.

[00:05:31] [SPEAKER_01]: Lawmakers who say that we already have a law and so this isn't addressing any kind of a new problem.

[00:05:39] [SPEAKER_01]: He calls this redundant that there is no gap in the current law,

[00:05:47] [SPEAKER_01]: which I would submit there obviously is somewhere because people aren't

[00:05:55] [SPEAKER_01]: people aren't being deported for their crimes.

[00:05:59] [SPEAKER_01]: These crimes specifically, right?

[00:06:02] [SPEAKER_01]: So obviously there's some gap.

[00:06:05] [SPEAKER_01]: So either nadler doesn't know that or maybe nadler is lying.

[00:06:11] [SPEAKER_01]: I'm going with line because it's nadler.

[00:06:15] [SPEAKER_01]: So if it is in fact redundant, if nadler is correct

[00:06:21] [SPEAKER_01]: that it is redundant and it doesn't actually cover a gap.

[00:06:24] [SPEAKER_01]: It doesn't fill in a gap then what's the problem?

[00:06:29] [SPEAKER_01]: Why wouldn't you vote for it?

[00:06:30] [SPEAKER_01]: If it does nothing, then who cares?

[00:06:35] [SPEAKER_01]: It's not adding anything new, it's not covering a gap,

[00:06:39] [SPEAKER_01]: it's just redundant, then why not just go ahead and pass it?

[00:06:42] [SPEAKER_01]: It's not like you're putting any new burdens on anybody.

[00:06:44] [SPEAKER_01]: Oh, but he says that these are overly broad definitions and lack a waiver authority in the bill,

[00:06:55] [SPEAKER_01]: which would result in extremely harsh and unintended consequences,

[00:06:59] [SPEAKER_01]: including the removal of survivors of domestic violence.

[00:07:06] [SPEAKER_01]: How would that happen?

[00:07:09] [SPEAKER_01]: Mace called that discussion shameful during the debate on the legislation.

[00:07:13] [SPEAKER_01]: So I'm not sure, unless you're defining the victims as the offenders,

[00:07:21] [SPEAKER_01]: how exactly does that happen and what then does it say of the 51 Democrats who all voted for it?

[00:07:28] [SPEAKER_01]: Now will the Senate do something with this bill?

[00:07:32] [SPEAKER_01]: Well, I'm not holding my breath on that.

[00:07:36] [SPEAKER_01]: Because I think the 158 Democrats that voted against the bill,

[00:07:39] [SPEAKER_01]: I think they are more closely in line with the party leadership's attitude on this measure.

[00:07:51] [SPEAKER_01]: Nabler is a party leader, so meanwhile, left-wing activist groups

[00:07:57] [SPEAKER_01]: are quietly hoping that Vice President Kamala Harris' new Hocchish rhetoric on the border

[00:08:03] [SPEAKER_01]: is nothing more than a charade.

[00:08:08] [SPEAKER_01]: Her values haven't changed.

[00:08:10] [SPEAKER_01]: She comes from a middle-class family where people took pride in their lawns.

[00:08:16] [SPEAKER_01]: The Vice President and her campaign team have specifically touted her endorsement of the failed

[00:08:22] [SPEAKER_01]: Senate border bill, the Biden's Bordor Bill.

[00:08:26] [SPEAKER_01]: Remember that?

[00:08:27] [SPEAKER_01]: So she keeps citing this thing as saying if she supported it.

[00:08:33] [SPEAKER_01]: But these activists, these leftist activist groups, they did not support that bill.

[00:08:38] [SPEAKER_01]: And so they're hoping that she's lying about her support of it.

[00:08:43] [SPEAKER_01]: Which, that's a pretty good bet, right?

[00:08:46] [SPEAKER_01]: You don't know what she actually thinks about this stuff.

[00:08:50] [SPEAKER_01]: Left-wing activist organizations continue to oppose the bill, but their leaders are nevertheless

[00:08:54] [SPEAKER_01]: supporting Harris or otherwise hoping that her shift on the border is not genuine.

[00:09:03] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, so their expectation is that she is lying to win the general election.

[00:09:09] [SPEAKER_01]: That's their hope.

[00:09:11] [SPEAKER_01]: That's what they're banking on.

[00:09:13] [SPEAKER_01]: We all know and trust Harris to make the right decisions when she is in office,

[00:09:18] [SPEAKER_01]: I don't think this bill will ever come up again as it is said, carry tell but

[00:09:23] [SPEAKER_01]: the executive director of Immigration Hub.

[00:09:26] [SPEAKER_01]: Speaking to Axios.com saying that she still supports Harris's candidacy.

[00:09:33] [SPEAKER_01]: Prior to this run for presidency, Harris had advocated for decriminalizing illegal border

[00:09:40] [SPEAKER_01]: crossings.

[00:09:41] [SPEAKER_01]: She described a border wall as un-American.

[00:09:45] [SPEAKER_01]: She blamed a lack of climate adaptation in poor countries for the immigration surge.

[00:09:51] [SPEAKER_01]: And she was the borders are, don't call her a resar, but she was the borders are,

[00:09:55] [SPEAKER_01]: where she was supposed to get to the root causes.

[00:09:57] [SPEAKER_01]: And I guess it was climate change.

[00:10:00] [SPEAKER_01]: She also suggested that immigration and customs enforcement or ICE is comparable to the KKK.

[00:10:08] [SPEAKER_01]: And it should be disbanded.

[00:10:10] [SPEAKER_01]: And she also endorsed taxpayer funded sex change surgeries for illegal immigrants.

[00:10:17] [SPEAKER_01]: The Harris campaign did not respond to a request for comment, which is,

[00:10:23] [SPEAKER_01]: well, that's standard.

[00:10:27] [SPEAKER_01]: You know, stories are powerful.

[00:10:28] [SPEAKER_01]: They help us make sense of things to understand experiences.

[00:10:31] [SPEAKER_01]: Stories connect us to the people of our past while transcending generations.

[00:10:35] [SPEAKER_01]: They help us process the meaning of life and art stories are told through images and videos.

[00:10:41] [SPEAKER_01]: Preserve your stories with creative video.

[00:10:43] [SPEAKER_01]: Started in 1997 in Mint Hill, North Carolina.

[00:10:46] [SPEAKER_01]: It was the first company to provide this valuable service converting images, photos and videos

[00:10:51] [SPEAKER_01]: into high quality produced, slideshows, videos and albums.

[00:10:55] [SPEAKER_01]: The trusted, talented, and dedicated team at Creative Video will go over all of the details

[00:10:59] [SPEAKER_01]: with you to create a perfect project satisfaction guaranteed.

[00:11:03] [SPEAKER_01]: Drop them off in person or mail them they'll be ready in a week or two.

[00:11:08] [SPEAKER_01]: Videos for rehearsal dinners, weddings, graduations, Christmas,

[00:11:12] [SPEAKER_01]: family vacations, birthdays or just your family stories all told through images.

[00:11:17] [SPEAKER_01]: That's what your photos and videos are.

[00:11:19] [SPEAKER_01]: They are your life told through the eyes of everyone around you and all who came before you.

[00:11:24] [SPEAKER_01]: And they will tell others to come who you are visit creativevideo.com.

[00:11:30] [SPEAKER_01]: Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell,

[00:11:35] [SPEAKER_01]: Bigot, apparently. I mean, I don't know. I think maybe xenophobic at least.

[00:11:44] [SPEAKER_01]: He blamed the migrant crisis for the nation's growing unemployment.

[00:11:52] [SPEAKER_01]: Wait, you don't say. Wait a minute. Hang on a second. I gotta be clear about this. You're telling me

[00:12:01] [SPEAKER_01]: that if we import 10 to 20 million people that that might put some pressure on the availability of jobs.

[00:12:12] [SPEAKER_01]: That's interesting. Like there's an over supply and not enough of

[00:12:21] [SPEAKER_01]: a need or demand if you will.

[00:12:23] [SPEAKER_01]: Only we had some sort of like a rule that we could, yeah, that would guide us on this kind of thing

[00:12:30] [SPEAKER_01]: in the future that might be helpful. So he made these comments after cutting the benchmark

[00:12:37] [SPEAKER_01]: interest rate by 0.5 percentage points on or a by 0.5 of a percent, half a percent. Let me just say

[00:12:45] [SPEAKER_01]: that way. Half a percent, New York Post reports this is the first time since the early days

[00:12:52] [SPEAKER_01]: of COVID-19. If you're having millions of people come into the labor force, he said, then

[00:12:57] [SPEAKER_01]: you're creating a hundred thousand jobs, you're going to see unemployment go up.

[00:13:04] [SPEAKER_01]: So it really depends on what's the trend underlying the volatility of people coming into the country.

[00:13:11] [SPEAKER_01]: We understand there's been quite an influx across the borders. Do you know?

[00:13:16] [SPEAKER_01]: Are you aware of this? Interesting. Okay. And that has actually been one of the things that's

[00:13:23] [SPEAKER_01]: allowed the unemployment to rise. He says it does depend on what's happening on the supply side.

[00:13:32] [SPEAKER_01]: Interesting. Once again, the unemployment rate has been steadily creeping upwards over the last year

[00:13:38] [SPEAKER_01]: with a particular spike in the spring. After starting the year at 3.7 percent,

[00:13:45] [SPEAKER_01]: it is now at 4.2 percent. Well, it was in August. That's the latest data that they've got in August.

[00:13:56] [SPEAKER_01]: The assessment or sorry, the US has also been slow to add jobs in recent months with a

[00:14:01] [SPEAKER_01]: disappointing 140 2000 jobs added in August, which was below what was projected. The target

[00:14:07] [SPEAKER_01]: was about 160, 160,000 or so. So it came in like 20,000 jobs short of that. And in July,

[00:14:15] [SPEAKER_01]: there were only 89,000 jobs added. And that is the lowest since the pandemic.

[00:14:22] [SPEAKER_01]: The assessment of the labor market took a major blow. You'll recall last month when it was revealed

[00:14:29] [SPEAKER_01]: that there were just a TTC weency that fewer jobs that were created between March of 2023

[00:14:37] [SPEAKER_01]: and March of 2024, then what was previously reported. They had given a report. They said,

[00:14:44] [SPEAKER_01]: look at all the germs we've created. And then they had to do their revision. And when they did the

[00:14:50] [SPEAKER_01]: revision, they were like, we missed it by just a little bit. 818,000 jobs. That's our bad just

[00:14:57] [SPEAKER_01]: slide over count on the jobs. The 9 million people have been caught crossing the border into

[00:15:06] [SPEAKER_01]: the United States since Biden took office in 2021, which does not include one million more

[00:15:11] [SPEAKER_01]: who are believed to have snuck in without detection. I will point out if the vast majority of

[00:15:19] [SPEAKER_01]: the people coming across the border illegally were taking journalist jobs or were getting jobs in

[00:15:28] [SPEAKER_01]: offices inside government bureaucracies, particularly at the federal level. I suspect the

[00:15:34] [SPEAKER_01]: border would have already been shut down. But the fact that they're taking jobs from those people,

[00:15:41] [SPEAKER_01]: it's okay. You guys are just bigots. See if they're taking your job, you should learn to code

[00:15:49] [SPEAKER_01]: if they're taking my job. Well, this is a crisis. This is a national crisis. The feds decision

[00:15:59] [SPEAKER_01]: to cut the interest rates means that the Board of Governors believes that the unemployment rate

[00:16:05] [SPEAKER_01]: now poses a greater risk to the economy than inflation because they have these the dual mandate,

[00:16:10] [SPEAKER_01]: you know, inflation and unemployment. So look, hey, it's good to hear anybody at that level

[00:16:20] [SPEAKER_01]: recognize that there is a freaking impact on the economy and it's not all good as we always hear

[00:16:28] [SPEAKER_01]: people on the left say, oh, they're they contribute way more than it costs and no, there are costs.

[00:16:34] [SPEAKER_01]: Again, as Thomas Sol says, no good, no bad. Just tradeoffs. This is one of the tradeoffs.

[00:16:42] [SPEAKER_01]: All right, real quick, let me introduce you to my friends Gabriel and Michelle too.

[00:16:45] [SPEAKER_01]: Lifelong North Carolinians who are passionate about everything North Carolina. They own simply

[00:16:50] [SPEAKER_01]: NC goods, which is a curated box service of only North Carolina made items. Food, beverages,

[00:17:03] [SPEAKER_01]: themed box. So order before October 15th, these boxes make great gifts for friends and family.

[00:17:09] [SPEAKER_01]: Even yourself, you can do that house warnings, birthdays, Christmas, host gifts,

[00:17:25] [SPEAKER_01]: especially the jumbo box just for the holidays that simply ncgoods.com slash Pete.

[00:17:34] [SPEAKER_01]: Let me play for you a clip. This is the former Border Patrol chief, Aaron Heikki.

[00:17:41] [SPEAKER_01]: I think it's how we pronounce it. And he testified before Congress that he was ordered by the

[00:17:52] [SPEAKER_01]: Harris administration to essentially cover up the number of terrorists arrested at the border,

[00:18:04] [SPEAKER_01]: which I mean, I don't know. I was just a reporter for over a decade of worked in news for like 30

[00:18:11] [SPEAKER_01]: years. This seems kind of newsworthy to me but I don't know. Listen to him and you decide for yourself here.

[00:18:17] [SPEAKER_00]: In San Diego, we had an exponential increase in significant interest aliens. These are aliens with

[00:18:23] [SPEAKER_00]: significant ties to terrorism. Prior to this administration, the San Diego sector average 10 to 15

[00:18:29] [SPEAKER_00]: SIRS pre year. Once more was out the border was far easier to cross. San Diego went to over 100 SIAs

[00:18:36] [SPEAKER_00]: in 2022. Well over that in 2023 and even more than that registered this year. These are the only

[00:18:43] [SPEAKER_00]: ones we caught. At the time I was told that could not release any information on this increase in SIAs

[00:18:50] [SPEAKER_00]: or mention any of the arrests. The administration was trying to convince the public there was no

[00:18:54] [SPEAKER_00]: threat at the border. Fentonol is another issue. The San Diego area sees between 80 and 90 percent

[00:19:01] [SPEAKER_00]: of the METHEN fedamine in fentanyl seizures annually for our entire country. With little enforcement

[00:19:07] [SPEAKER_00]: of the border, these drugs were coming through in mass. During my last year in San Diego, the price

[00:19:12] [SPEAKER_00]: for a single pill of fentonol, for example, went from $10 to 25 cents. To make matters worse,

[00:19:19] [SPEAKER_00]: during 2022 and 23, I had to shut down San Diego traffic checkpoints, which are a critical

[00:19:25] [SPEAKER_00]: for drug introduction because the resources that the event converted to the process in release mission.

[00:19:31] [SPEAKER_00]: The large numbers also had and still have a negative impact on the San Diego community.

[00:19:36] [SPEAKER_00]: I had to release illegal aliens by the hundreds each day into communities who could not support

[00:19:40] [SPEAKER_00]: them. To quiet the problem, two flights a week were provided from San Diego to Texas. These flights

[00:19:46] [SPEAKER_00]: simply brought aliens that would have been released in San Diego over to Texas. Each flight

[00:19:51] [SPEAKER_00]: cost approximately $150,000. This was the administration's way to try and quiet the border

[00:19:56] [SPEAKER_01]: wide crisis in San Diego. So it seems like if there was a branch of the government that controlled

[00:20:04] [SPEAKER_01]: the purse strings for federal spending, it seems like that branch or I don't know, like that

[00:20:12] [SPEAKER_01]: chamber could maybe put the squeeze on this kind of a program by cutting all of the funds.

[00:20:24] [SPEAKER_01]: But I don't know. Again, just a radio host. I have no idea if there's any entity that could actually

[00:20:30] [SPEAKER_01]: do such a thing. Again, that's the former chief border patrol agent for the San Diego border point.

[00:20:42] [SPEAKER_01]: Meanwhile, two publicly funded Denver nonprofits, one called V-A wellness and one called

[00:20:51] [SPEAKER_01]: organization Papagayo. That's all one word. Papagayo. I don't know what it means, but both of these

[00:20:58] [SPEAKER_01]: nonprofits publicly funded chose to move thousands of Venezuela and migrants, including some

[00:21:05] [SPEAKER_01]: members of the violent Tren de Arragua Street gang into apartment complexes in Aurora, Colorado.

[00:21:15] [SPEAKER_01]: Precisely because those buildings were being poorly managed. In an email to Aurora City Council

[00:21:23] [SPEAKER_01]: and the former Danielle Jarenski obtained by National Review, the director of the Aurora Housing

[00:21:31] [SPEAKER_01]: and Community Development Jessica Proser. She says in this email that she learned from V-A wellness

[00:21:39] [SPEAKER_01]: and we're going to Zalcyon Papagayo. I'm throwing in the organ that that's probably not actually

[00:21:46] [SPEAKER_01]: organized in the own. It's organization Papagayo. V-A and V-N-P, we're going to call them.

[00:21:54] [SPEAKER_01]: She learned according to this email, Jessica Proser, director of Housing and Community Development

[00:21:59] [SPEAKER_01]: for Aurora, learned that V-N-P were moving migrants into Aurora through conversations that she had

[00:22:06] [SPEAKER_01]: had with three city, state, and county offices, including the Colorado Office of New Americans

[00:22:13] [SPEAKER_01]: and the Department of Local Affairs. The state and local officials explained that three

[00:22:20] [SPEAKER_01]: apartment complexes being run by a management company called CBZ Management were chosen to

[00:22:27] [SPEAKER_01]: house the illegal immigrants because the property managers failed to do basic due diligence on their

[00:22:33] [SPEAKER_01]: tenants. Later on in this piece, again, this is National Review, a piece by Tracy Wolf for Osborn,

[00:22:44] [SPEAKER_01]: according to the same email, again from Jessica Proser to a Aurora City Councilwoman.

[00:22:51] [SPEAKER_01]: V-A and Papagayo work together to place many individuals and migrant families in the apartments

[00:22:57] [SPEAKER_01]: going back to the spring of 2023 and they provided in some cases the deposit

[00:23:04] [SPEAKER_01]: and three months worth of rent. The two non-profits had placed 8,000 Venezuelan migrants

[00:23:17] [SPEAKER_01]: across 2,000 leases in Aurora as of April of 2024. According to the Colorado Sun, it's unclear

[00:23:26] [SPEAKER_01]: exactly how many of those ended up in CBZ buildings when asked for comment, Jessica Proser, referred

[00:23:34] [SPEAKER_01]: National Review to her cons department and her cons department did not come.

[00:23:42] [SPEAKER_01]: They did not respond, which is kind of your whole job actually as communications. The non-profits

[00:23:49] [SPEAKER_01]: chose to unload the migrants in Aurora without asking permission from the city or coordinating

[00:23:55] [SPEAKER_01]: with local officials in any way according to the Aurora City Councilwoman, which is kind of ironic

[00:24:02] [SPEAKER_01]: because that's what Democrats have been so angry about, right? When the buses and flights went

[00:24:09] [SPEAKER_01]: up to Chicago and New York and Martha's Vineyard, what was the argument that they didn't even

[00:24:17] [SPEAKER_01]: call to tell us. This is human trafficking. Ron DeSantis needs to be charged with human

[00:24:22] [SPEAKER_01]: trafficking. Greg Abbott needs to be charged with human trafficking, right? Because they're

[00:24:26] [SPEAKER_01]: picking up these people and just dropping them here and they're not even telling us

[00:24:32] [SPEAKER_01]: but they're not our federal government isn't telling these cities. In February, Aurora

[00:24:40] [SPEAKER_01]: reaffirmed their status as a non-sensualary city and then even past a resolution banning the

[00:24:47] [SPEAKER_01]: transportation of migrants into city limits. This was in February, but it continues.

[00:24:57] [SPEAKER_01]: In violation of the city ordinance, right? That's what it tells me that these non-profits

[00:25:02] [SPEAKER_01]: are violating city law. Will it matter? I have no idea. So when I was a kid my grandpa died with

[00:25:11] [SPEAKER_01]: Alzheimer's and before he died my mom and my dad and all of us really helped take care of them as he

[00:25:16] [SPEAKER_01]: got progressively worse. 40 years ago there were no treatments and not much support for caregivers

[00:25:22] [SPEAKER_01]: and family. Things are different today because of the workers so many people including the Alzheimer's

[00:25:26] [SPEAKER_01]: Association of Western North Carolina. It's a great organization with awesome people. They've got

[00:25:32] [SPEAKER_01]: huge hearts. I've been a supporter for like 25 years. This cause means a lot to me. I participate

[00:25:38] [SPEAKER_01]: in the annual walk to Endalsheimer's and I am leading a Charlotte team this year. It's called

[00:25:43] [SPEAKER_01]: Pete's Pack. You can sign up and join the team and walk with me. It's on October 19th at

[00:25:56] [SPEAKER_01]: Lincoln the podcast description here. Also I'm going to be MCing the Gastonia walk on October 5th

[00:26:02] [SPEAKER_01]: so make a team and join us or make a donation to help me hit my goal. I would really appreciate it.

[00:26:07] [SPEAKER_01]: There are a bunch of other walks around the Carolinas and you can go to a.lz.org for all of the

[00:26:13] [SPEAKER_01]: dates and locations. We are closer than ever to stopping Alzheimer's and if you can help us get there

[00:26:20] [SPEAKER_01]: we would really appreciate it. Will you come walk with me for a different future for families for more

[00:26:25] [SPEAKER_01]: time for treatments? This is why I walk. Um, I saw a tweet come down. I've lost it now from

[00:26:34] [SPEAKER_01]: Dr. Michael Bitzer up at Katoba College, political science guy and he says folks may want to tune

[00:26:47] [SPEAKER_01]: to CNN at 2 PM today. So Bitzer dropping the hint a little break from there for everybody about

[00:26:55] [SPEAKER_01]: what the CNN report about Mark Robinson is going to be dropping it too. I don't know. Well,

[00:27:03] [SPEAKER_01]: do we get CNN in this studio? Do we even know? I think I feel like I have seen it on one of the four

[00:27:11] [SPEAKER_01]: sometimes functioning televisions in here. Um, so I feel like I've seen it and so maybe at two

[00:27:18] [SPEAKER_01]: people in our newscasts, then we'll monitor the situation. I'll see what they will see what they do.

[00:27:27] [SPEAKER_01]: So I saw somebody asking like why would they put this story out now if the deadline to

[00:27:35] [SPEAKER_01]: drop out of the race is today? And it is today he can say he to withdraw from the race but leave

[00:27:46] [SPEAKER_01]: his name on the ballot. The ballots are not getting reprinted. They're getting mailed out tomorrow. So

[00:27:52] [SPEAKER_01]: they're not going to reprint the ballots as I understand it. They're going to go out, but if he wants

[00:27:56] [SPEAKER_01]: to withdraw and therefore any votes that go to him under his name on the ballot would go to whoever

[00:28:05] [SPEAKER_01]: it is that would replace him. So the Republican party could swap him out with somebody, but he has to

[00:28:11] [SPEAKER_01]: withdraw by today's deadline. And so some folks were wondering like why would they drop the

[00:28:17] [SPEAKER_01]: story then today? Why not wait till tomorrow? And that may have been the plan. If I had to guess,

[00:28:23] [SPEAKER_01]: I would say it would have been the plan. If you're trying to get Josh Stein elected, that's the

[00:28:31] [SPEAKER_01]: plan. You do it after the deadline. So this way he can't withdraw and his name remains on the ballot.

[00:28:40] [SPEAKER_01]: But this gets into sort of the mechanics of how reporting is done. If I'm working on a story and

[00:28:51] [SPEAKER_01]: I am from the rumors that are swirling around, it has something to do with online chat room activity

[00:28:58] [SPEAKER_01]: or something or it could have been related to the porn stores that he allegedly went to even

[00:29:04] [SPEAKER_01]: so he denied that. And remember, I saw somebody pointing out that well, he said he would buy these

[00:29:11] [SPEAKER_01]: bootleg VHS tapes from the porn store worker. And the guy would get him up in New York and then

[00:29:22] [SPEAKER_01]: he would bring him down to North Carolina because the stuff he was getting up in New York apparently

[00:29:26] [SPEAKER_01]: wasn't legal down here. And so what was legal up there versus what was illegal here? And if it's

[00:29:34] [SPEAKER_01]: of a period, nature is there some kind of content there that is scandalous. I don't know. I've heard

[00:29:44] [SPEAKER_01]: that thrown out as a potential rumor as well. I have no idea. Again, Robinson denies that he ever went to

[00:29:51] [SPEAKER_01]: those places. He says that's not true, that guy's lying. And that guy did have a financial interest

[00:29:56] [SPEAKER_01]: in lying, but people just seem to just glance right over or gloss right over, I should say.

[00:30:05] [SPEAKER_01]: But when you're doing a story, if you're trying to, like you're doing all the research first,

[00:30:09] [SPEAKER_01]: you get the Apple research from the Stein campaign, right? They're wanting to hurt their opponent

[00:30:15] [SPEAKER_01]: and that's why Stein isn't debating. I mean, it doesn't have to. He's waiting on the story to come out.

[00:30:19] [SPEAKER_01]: Now that makes sense, right? You hand it off all this stuff. Let the media do your work for you. And then

[00:30:26] [SPEAKER_01]: the media starts doing the research. They start building their stories. And at some point,

[00:30:32] [SPEAKER_01]: they have to now ask the Robinson campaign for a statement. And at that point, when you start asking

[00:30:42] [SPEAKER_01]: people to comment about the story you're working on, that's what starts the rumor mill going.

[00:30:50] [SPEAKER_01]: Because until you do that, nobody knows, right? The Stein campaign is not going to tell anybody.

[00:30:57] [SPEAKER_01]: They're not going to alert their opponent earlier so then they can drop out and get the name

[00:31:02] [SPEAKER_01]: removed from the ballot. Now you actually have a tougher race. Look at Donald Trump versus Harris,

[00:31:05] [SPEAKER_01]: right? So you wanted to happen later. And so I suspect the plan may have been to drop it so late

[00:31:13] [SPEAKER_01]: that they couldn't get him to withdraw and they couldn't get his name off the ballot. All that.

[00:31:19] [SPEAKER_01]: But when you start making the phone calls, now the rumor mill kicks up and now the pressure

[00:31:24] [SPEAKER_01]: starts building on the media outlet to produce the story. And so then you end up with this rush

[00:31:31] [SPEAKER_01]: because you don't want to get scooped on your own story. If you've been working on a story for

[00:31:36] [SPEAKER_01]: two months or something and once the rumor mill starts kicking up, now other media outlets

[00:31:42] [SPEAKER_01]: get wind of it and they start asking questions and they could find out that story before you go

[00:31:48] [SPEAKER_01]: to press. And so you got to now rush your story out. So that could be why it's happening today

[00:31:56] [SPEAKER_01]: versus tomorrow, which would have been strategically more advantageous timing. All right that'll do it
