Left complaining of “chilling effect” – correct. Soros Fox Gingrich Clip Fox Response Calls for drastic criminal justice and police reforms have swept the country since the death of George Floyd, but local prosecutors already are making waves on that front -- in a sign that under-the-radar political investments made by progressive groups in recent years are paying off. District attorneys and current candidates whose campaigns benefited from the work of left-wing organizations – including ones backed by liberal billionaire George Soros – are now pushing for new practices that could see sharp reductions in prosecutions and incarcerations. Soros, through the Justice & Public Safety PAC and other groups, has been spending millions of dollars on prosecutorial races in recent years, with a number of beneficiaries making headlines since their elections. Louis Circuit Attorney Kim Gardner, who was boosted by Soros in her campaign, drew controversy when she announced her office was bringing felony charges against Mark and Patricia McCloskey, the couple who brandished guns outside their home as protesters marched by in June. The McCloskeys have said many times they were defending themselves, with tensions high in St. Louis and other cities over race and law enforcement. They said the crowd of demonstrators broke an iron gate marked with "No Trespassing" and "Private Street" signs, and that some threatened them. Another high-profile prosecutor who has been backed by Soros in the past is Cook County, Ill. State's Attorney Kim Foxx. Foxx drew national attention when she dismissed the case against actor Jussie Smollett, who had been accused of faking a hate crime attack against himself. The case was later taken over by a special prosecutor who filed new charges. Foxx is seeking reelection this year and already won her Democratic primary. Regarding ongoing protests in her jurisdiction, she has said that her office will lean toward dismissing cases coming from protests or curfew violations (Mayor Lori Lightfoot imposed a curfew between May 30 and June 6 after a George Floyd protest). “The question it comes down to is, is it a good use of our time and resources?” Foxx told the Chicago Sun-Times. “No, it’s not.” Looking at her term in office, a report from the Law Enforcement Legal Defense Fund found a 13 percent decline in guilty pleas or verdicts in felony cases and a 39 percent increase in dropped or lost cases after Foxx took office in 2016. San Francisco District Attorney Chesa Boudin, another beneficiary of Soros-tied contributions, recently defended the movement to defund police. In a discussion with Rep. Ayanna Pressley, D-Mass., earlier in July, Boudin questioned whether money going to police was “the most effective” use of taxpayer dollars. Boudin is also one of a number of district attorneys participating in "Truth, Justice and Reconciliation Commissions," teaming with the Grassroots Law Project, an organization co-founded by activist Shaun King that calls for defunding police. The other district attorneys who are participating in these commissions are Philadelphia DA Larry Krasner and Suffolk County, Mass., DA Rachael Rollins, who have both benefited from Soros’ support. Krasner, who was elected after Soros put $1.45 million into a political action committee that supported him, has also taken a public stance regarding events that have spun out of the protests over Floyd’s death, particularly the federal response to violent demonstrations in cities like Portland. In a Washington Post op-ed he co-wrote with Baltimore DA Marilyn Mosby, Krasner threatened to have federal officers arrested and charged if they overstep their authority in his jurisdiction, after officers in Portland were accused of using excessive force. “Should Trump send federal agents who engage in the same illegal vigilante activities, unlawfully assaulting and kidnapping people, they will face criminal charges from our offices,” Krasner and Mosby said. In Contra Costa County, Calif., District Attorney Diana Becton – also backed by Soros – changed how her office handles police shooting cases, removing deputy district attorney Barry Grove from his role as the main prosecutor in such cases, switching to a team approach, according to the Mercury News. Becton also announced earlier this month that she was filing hate crime charges against Nichole Anderson and David Nelson, White people who were allegedly caught painting over a Black Lives Matter mural. Orlando State Attorney candidate Monique Worrell is also backed by a group linked to Soros in her quest to fill the seat that will be vacated by Aramis Ayala, who was also supported by Soros. Worrell’s platform calls for an end to cash bail, which would result in more defendants being released before their trial. She also says that incarceration should be a “last resort,” and that those who do not pose “a threat to the physical safety of others” should not be placed behind bars. Worrell’s opponent Ryan Williams has cited the Soros connection as a point of attack, and Worrell has accused Williams of playing on anti-Semitic tropes by mentioning Soros’ involvement. But the Jewish political philanthropist is not the only player in the game of prosecutorial campaigns. Real Justice PAC, also co-founded by Shaun King, has supported 29 head prosecutors and state attorneys general since 2018, including several who were also backed by Soros, such as Gardner, Boudin, Rollins and Becton. The organization is also backing the 2020 campaigns of Foxx and 13 other candidates seeking office. The organization's goals include electing – and recruiting – candidates who would make changes to criminal justice systems such as ending cash bail and “rolling back practices that lead to mass incarceration.” One 2020 candidate Real Justice succeeded in getting elected already is Multnomah County, Ore., District Attorney Mike Schmidt, who will be in a key position when he takes office on Aug. 1, given that his jurisdiction includes Portland, where riots have been taking place amid months of protests following Floyd’s death. Schmidt has said that he would potentially drop charges against nonviolent protesters when he is in office, according to local NBC affiliate KGW Delia Garza, who won the Democratic primary in Travis County, Texas, and will run unopposed in November, is also backed by Real Justice. Garza has already said that her office will decline to prosecute certain types of cases. “We’re not going to prosecute low-level drug offenses. We’re not going to prosecute crimes that are an extension of someone being in poverty, basically,” Garza said, according to KXAN. “You know, we’re going to look at the way that we prosecute crimes like prostitution, because so many times those things, those kinds of crimes are related to poverty in some kind of way.” Trasnscript: 124 - Fox Silences Gingrich - Is George Soros behind lax prosecutions? 00:00:05 - 00:05:03 A. Republican podcast. Brian O'Kelly I will be your host for today's adventure. Broadcasting from the forest in cottage link Washington just outside of Seattle on my Russian maidens octave. Microphone this is podcast number one. Hit me up on twitter parlor. facebook whatever your voice is club. It's ask Brian. Your Bro in all of those cases. And so and the Republicans Dot Com website, which is a work in progress and should be. Vastly improved by Monday. Let's begin this program like every other by thanking God for good health and the ability to here sharing with you. Happy. Friday. If you're listening on the livestream on facebook on twitter on. Youtube and now on daily motion also. Thank you for your time and attention I'm grateful for it and hope everybody's off to a good start. for the day and Let's see. We've got a whole bunch of stuff going on and Yesterday I played a clip of. Speaker Gingrich was on the. Show outnumbered there with Harris Faulkner and Melissa Francis and what the Speaker had to say was that he thought that the big problem was that these. Attorneys district attorneys are not taking care of business and prosecuting people. and. The hosts seemed a little bit put off by that. And They There was fourteen seconds of dead air. As a result and Harris Wagner has come back and responded to that but I'm decided that I wanted to see keep hearing about George Soros, and I don't really know about George Soros other than the rumors and so on a here and I decided that wasn't good enough and I wanted to learn a little bit more for myself and so and for you I figured if I don't know you probably don't so we can learn together. So first let's go and set up in case you have missed this out there this is what I'm referencing that happened with. Speaker Gingrich on the show outnumbered on Fox I guess this would have been on Tuesday. Hero whose lives have been destroyed by this violence. They represent every. Speaker Gingrich have a final thought for us. Look, the number one problem in almost all these cities is George Soros elected left wing anti police, pro criminal district attorneys who refuse to keep people locked up. Just yesterday they put somebody back on the street who's wanted for two different murders in New York City. You cannot solve this problem and both powers and by. Have talked very. About what they call progressive the district. Attorney's progressive. District attorneys are anti police pro criminal in overwhelmingly elected with George sources, money, and their major cause of the violence we're seeing who's they keep putting violent criminals back on the street. I'm not sure we need to bring George listen to this. I was going to get the last word Paker. He he paid for it. So here's the. Teen seconds. I agree it. Doesn't need to be a part of this conversation. One two, three, four, five, though it's six seven. Eight. Nine, ten eleven twelve. Ten, move on fourteen. Courtesy House. We have our network team. Gist an absolute eternity for that much debt air to happen and so. I don't know if somebody was speaking in Harris faulkners ear or what was going on while that was happening but she came out and said something about it. Afterwards. Here is what Harris Faulkner had to say. So we had a little incident on the show yesterday that was not smooth, and while I was leading that segment, we had interruptions and I sat silently while all of that played out. Also not ideal our guest former. House Speaker Newt Gingrich who was beloved and needed to be allowed to speak with the openness and respect that the show is all about. was interrupted. Do we debate with fire here? Yes but we must also give each other space to express ourselves. As the only original member of the six year old amazing daytime ride known outnumbered I. 00:05:03 - 00:10:00 Especially want to rock and roll with every voice in perspective at the table we don't censor on the show. And that's why we're winning weekdays at noon. I found that answer to be somewhat unsatisfactory candidly. I don't think that was For me that's not enough and you know there was an interruption and now I think the interruption was that you talked about George Soros and or that Nigga. Mr. Newt talked about George Soros and does appear that that is a sin that is not allowed on Fox News and I had absolutely no more no idea. It's the title on the on the livestream Thursday. I keep forgetting to update it before I start to livestream of all the things I'm doing but I'll get I'll get that down I need to just probably change it to live broadcast and it's always right. So sorry about that and probably need to. How to do that? During one of these video clips update are regardless. Glenn Beck used to be a Fox News host and Glenn Beck. was run out of the network and Glenn Beck says it was because he was talking about George Soros I will tell you that George Soros is not to be discussed. It is verboten You know when I got down to the end one of the things at Fox News they were starting to tell me I can't talk about things. They just talk about this stop talking about that one of them was God. One of them was Israel and the other one was George Soros and if you remember Glen You won't play the game. The problem with you is you won't play the game. If you've ever heard me tell that story that conversation started with George Soros. So the problem with us, you won't play the game and what that means that you won't shut up about the things that we don't want to talk about. and. So. All right. Well, that's weird. So this is supposed to be the right wing network. We're not hearing criticism, George Soros on the left wing networks and now when he's criticized on Fox, they shut down. Speaker. Gingrich Glenn Beck says that that's why he's not on the network anymore. So okay. What do we make of that? Well? Let's learn about George Soros. So this is George Soros mostly in his own words and in his son words son's words. This is video from. The Open Society Foundation website. And standing over society is one thing trying to. Plead open societies for strengthening opus had his is something else they have to evolve they have to create themselves. And that process is never ending process people are free and they want to hide behind. Orders. Use oversight and it sounded ways in order to have an open society you have to mediate the tension between equality and liberty popular sovereignty and individual freedom is a difficult task. The foundation does more than fun projects with. Certain things. One has to fight for even who is not properly if you believe in something. And you have the convictions. Towards it. You can really withstand. Surmountable odds I. Really. Fight fight. Society is always in danger. and. Renew itself being tested. And surviving. and. So that's that's George Soros and his son there, and you know it all sounds good open society and but you heard the one guy in there say that people are fearful. So they want to hide behind borders. So when they say open what they mean and it sounds you know better than it is what they mean is societies without rules. That's what they mean by open. They. Mean you're open to do whatever you want. Without restriction. That's what it means, and that's a very different thing from what it sounds like when you say open society, it sounds. Better than it is. So Mr Newt makes this claim that George A source has paid for it. So that well, let's find out. If George Soros WHO's paid for it So. Let me just share with you some reporting from Fox, news of all places that shut down the conversation, and I'm not gonNA share the video from them as much as a some. Text and then we'll share some. 00:10:01 - 00:15:02 Audio for some candid say funded. But so here's what what they report. district attorney's and current candidates. Campaigns benefited from the work of left-wing organizations including ones backed by liberal billionaire. George Soros are pushing for new practices that could see productions in prosecutions and. incarcerations. Soros through the Justice and public safety pack and other groups has been spending millions of dollars on prosecutorial races in recent years. A number of beneficiaries making headlines since their election all right now yes remember the mccloskey's. Those are the people in Saint Louis who ended up. With the guns out on their driveway as the protesters were coming by spoke at the RNC convention and They are being prosecuted, right? and. Of course, they're being prosecuted by prosecutors not prosecuting the protesters and vandals. So, who is this prosecutor? While her name is Kim Gardner and she was elected and paid for by this justice in public safety pack that is funded by George. Soros. So here is Kim, Gardner is the bully. Pulpit this is the threats that we receive. We're doing our job to be true ministers of justice. So no policeman is GonNa tell you or any other unit will come to you and tell you if you hold us accountable, we're going to start working. We're not gonNA police your community to make you the calls or say you're the cause of violent crime in your communities and right now we're in A. Very, unique time that we have policing unions with I call him forty-five to promote divisiveness in rhetoric of this anti law enforcement where it's perpetuating a fear that is causing problems with prosecutors like our sales to promote justice and when you have people who will threaten your livelihood not just whether you do your job we'll tell you we will make it difficult for you to do your job in every way. And they have the platform to co have the media. report. It. Yeah so There she is. She's You know complaining that. The police union is telling is protecting the police and that they're protecting the police from her the prosecutor. and. So it's it's amazing that these guys don't seem to be in favor of law and order now. Remember the Jussie smollet case. This was the case where the guy shows up in In Chicago. There and he's an actor right is on the whatever the show was I don't remember the name of the show that the guy was on. But The show he was on. I. Guess. It was empire was the name of the show. Anyway he was not an important player on that show in any serious way and but he went and. Got Himself fake attacked I, guess it was a hoax right and the prosecutor who wouldn't prosecute him was. This Kim Fox in Chicago, and so here is some Kim Vox. CanNot conflate peaceful protesters with what we saw last night. Last night was not an extension of a peaceful protests. Last night was not an extension of righteous anger. Last. Night was a blatant spray display. Of Criminal Behavior. What drove that behavior how we got there? Are Questions that we can continue to answer. But it is not the people for whom we've chosen not to use our resources to prosecute. The mothers who are mourning the loss is of their children the people who are afraid to go out into the stores into the streets, the people who are unable to come downtown today to go to work. Are Looking for answers. Not. Blame. Yeah looking for answers not blaming. So what she's saying is I don't want to prosecute anybody. I want answers to racial justice I. Don't want answers to the crime. Of course, this has led to. More and more crime because the criminals are just getting released. What's cheese Chicago Chevy violence now being experienced in several major cities including Chicago I'll research from a pro-police group is blaming local prosecutors and what they say is a declining conviction rate wgn investigates has an exclusive first look. At. This is Chicago. Every weekend teen killed in one every weekend painful holiday weekend. 00:15:02 - 00:20:04 There's no consequences. To legal gun possession. In our criminal justice system Chicago's new, and that's it right there. That's the new police chief. And he says there's no consequences to credit to gun possession in Chicago. There's no consequences to a lot of things in Chicago. There's no consequences to drug dealing. There's no consequences to all kinds of things in Chicago and so Kim Fox the prosecutor there again elected with George Soros money funded by put forward by everything about her was funded by George Soros and so now the police union is asking for her to resign. Public Room, Euch several police leaders in. Cook. County announced they have no confidence in Cook County State's attorney Kim Fox and they want her to resign. So the move follows the dismissal of charges in the Jussie smollet case however, at least one south suburban police chief disagrees with the move and this opposition goes beyond just the small case eyewitness news reporters here Sheltie is live right now with more on this call to resign today Sarah. Judy and rob the fraternal order of police and cook. County suburban police chief say that their frustration with Kim Fox started way before the Jussie smollet case, they accuse the state's attorney's Office of under prosecuting cases even not prosecuting cases even felony cases. We cannot stand for this any longer. Ms Facts needs to resign. And she should do it quickly. And so the cops are calling for her to resign and everybody wants to know what's going on in Chicago. WHY DO PEOPLE GETTING MURDERED IN CHICAGO? Well, apparently, there's no consequences for gun possession in Chicago and You know it is what it is. You can't change. What you can't change their the Nice woman who is the prosecutor isn't prosecuting the crimes. and. So I just got a message that the audio is a little buggy on guess that's up to the stream sometimes it's. You know it's interesting. I. The other day it was. Terrible on. On periscope and good on facebook and I guess today maybe a facebook as the one having trouble or maybe. All of them are regardless. The the idea here is we do the show live and it is what it is and we'll. All put it out on the podcast. Later, it'll be smooth as butter being recorded here in the idea was since I'm recording it anyway, we'll do it live and see how it works So Kim Fox they're calling for horror Resignation there in Chicago and so this is a good time for me to take a break and I will do that and see if I can't beef up the smoothness of the extreme as well at the same time. So be right back in just a minute or two and. You know how that works. So this is Brian I'll tell you the Republican podcast and I will be. Right, back Welcome back through public podcast and During the break I hopefully was able to clean up the livestream a little bit and. Hopefully, it's it's going to run a little bit better now for the program. Thank you for your patience. I think it was pilot error I want to blame the. Gerbils in the sky that make the Internet work but I think it was me. Song you know it is what it is. You know. Leaving the real world take responsibility, right you're grown up. So any welcome back to the Republican broadcasts with those who are new to the program So maybe I met the Lauren Culpa van last night handing out some business cards. Welcome. Thanks for joining us taking calls after the next break probably the eight six six. Nine eight eight eighty three eleven is the phone number if you WANNA call in be happy to have you and the Lauren culp rally last night was pretty cool deal and natural talk about that. Much on the show being were nationally focused show and that's a local election but that's the guy running for governor here in the state of Washington and pretty cool. So Now. Kim Fox there the prosecutor in Chicago basically decided that they don't want to use their Their public resources for prosecutions they don't think that's a good use of the resources that they think. It's a lot better to use them for I. Don't know whatever the famous thing was midnight basketball right now. In San Francisco. There was a guy supported again by George Soros. His name is Chesa Bodine. And chesser Benin is. The son? Of two of the weather underground bombers who are while his father is in federal prison. 00:20:04 - 00:25:01 His mother was in federal prison for years, and so this guy grew up with the idea that all jail is bad. And all incarceration is bad because his dad who was a criminal was incarcerated and so Chessel Benin is now the George. Soros Elected operated whatever guy? WHO's The San? Francisco. District Attorney Tonight San Francisco has a new district attorney chase a boo dean cave excise. Your Vasquez spoke to the new trump prosecutor about how he plans to take charge. The district attorney chase a bodine swore in the evening with the promise to reform San Francisco's justice system as I serve as district attorney district attorney, but the city and county of San Francisco or the city and county of San Francisco. Dean a former assistant public defender is now the top prosecutor. He says, there are too many people in jail over incarceration. He calls it and he says, one of his reforms will be decarbonisation. Join me join this movement join US rejecting the notion that to be free we must cage others. To do three months you other services. Quality of life issues such as carbon worries end open air drug abuse. I asked the incoming da whether justice system reforms could invite criminals who are not worried about legal consequence. Crimes these street level crimes like burglaries under your administration will they be prosecuted vigorously or will they feel emboldened as people are worried about I think we're going to have some very effective strategies to deter people from committing those crimes in San Francisco I, hope they don't commit them anywhere, but if they do not going to be in San Francisco on my watch I also asked Budeina about police shootings. Will he prosecute officers? I certainly hope not I don't look forward to filing criminal charges against anyone no matter who they are no matter what they do. It's difficult decision you. have to make just, knock. involving. and. Potentially in some cases, involving polices well, Houdini says its priorities will be bail reform sentencing reform and increased collaboration with public defenders. He says, he will soon be announcing strategies to deal with sexual assault as well as auto burglaries in San, Francisco Joe Vazquez KP and so you get to hear now. What the real motivation for Chesa Boudin is and he reveals it. This is actually a campaign commercial but you can hear in here when he talks about Carson. This is why this isn't based on kind of logic or common sense or experience or than anyone has seen this work anywhere. This is purely philosophical. Mass incarceration. It's a term that we hear almost daily. and. Yet what does it mean? To me, it meant going through prison gates. Every single time I wanted to see my parents. Since I was in diapers. To me it still means that as an adult. Because my father is serving a life sentence for crimes he committed when I was in diapers, my mother served twenty two years in prison. That's a reality that will never be lost on me. The implication is that somehow it's wrong for his father to be serving a life sentence for blowing people up. That's what his dad did. He was a weather underground terrorist. and His mom helped. and. They were will along with Bill Ayers Barack. Obama's buddy. They're in prison for billers isn't. A biller and his wife I believe in Nadine Dorn I think was And I don't know if Bill Ayers was ever prosecuted or not I regardless he continues. The reality though is not unique to me. It's not unique to the people I've represented or their families in my years. As a San, Francisco deputy public defender, it's an experience shared by the majority of Americans. The majority of Americans have an immediate family member who resided currently or formerly incarcerated is a defining feature of modern American culture. We need to end it now and we should start in San Francisco. That's And that's so that was his one of his campaign commercials is part about was what that was from and so. This Guy Chess Medine says that you know yes. Most people have a family member who has done jail time. I do. I do I have a family member? Who's done jail time? And you know it's not. 00:25:01 - 00:30:02 It's one of those that just is what it is right now I. I will tell you that this particular family member. Would tell you that He deserved the jail time. Okay, he would tell you that that the jail time was for crimes he committed. That, he wasn't a victim of the system when he went to jail, he was a victim miser. Of other people. And so I don't know what the problem is. Now, Philadelphia has a district attorney on named Larry Crasner. who an another one Name Rachel Rollins who's in a Massachusetts but. There is the one in Philadelphia and these guys are both funded by George Soros funded their campaigns and so here is Larry crafter. Welcome. I am Larry Crasner Philadelphia's district attorney. The most incarcerated country in the world is the United States Pennsylvania and Philadelphia has a terrible history of mass incarceration and excessive parole and probation. It's worse than many other parts of the United States. Incarceration tears apart society and it doesn't make us safe. It makes us broke. It takes resources from the things that prevent crime and make society whole like good public education, economic development health care, and treatment for children and families, and it shifts those resources to custody and supervision that costs a lot often more than fifty thousand dollars per person per year. Excessive. Parole and probation present. The same problem as excessive incarceration science shows that when parole and probation go on for too long they actually caused crime. While your taxes, just keep going up to pay that. Bill. Let's talk about how since the office in January two, thousand, eighteen, the Philadelphia District Attorney's Office has worked to reduce excessive jail and supervision. So we can shift those resources to achieve effective crime prevention just society. I heard, he says, they're excessive jail. And Supervision. We, we don't want to lock people up and then make sure that they you know and look after them there and we don't want to let them out and look after them. We don't want to look after him at all. We just WANNA have give him a little class and tell them you know Johnny, you have to stop being really bad now. And if you don't stop being really bad, you're GONNA have to come back and take to their class. I don't understand the idea that that we are incarcerating too many people and they start letting these people out and the city's turn to garbage, and this is the. Source Philosophy. Here's one more Larry Krassner. The stark difference between what's coming out of the president's mouth and what's happening on the streets in Philadelphia. We have not had anything that could be described as A. Burglaries criminal trespasses what some people would call looting. We haven't had anything like that. For weeks we have had. Peaceful protests on one hundred percent peaceful protests here for weeks. So when he's talking about taking over cities and he's talking about cities being out of control, he is lying. About the city Philadelphia which is nothing new. We have no regard for the truth. He has no regard for facts. If they all of the law then we'll all get along famously and if they choose not to follow the law, then they will discover that there are laws in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania that can be used to prosecute them. So he's talking about cutting the federal government? But based on what I saw in. Portland is my opinion that some of that behavior looks. Like. Criminal Conduct. He's just wrong. Federal law enforcement officers are not above state law and they're not a federal I even though our president would like to present he's above the law none of them are above the law. That we have seen in Portland might provide a clue as to what could be coming. You know when you cause serious bodily injury fraction or fracturing someone's skull. And if that is done in a What in my opinion? is a manner that does not legally justified charged with aggravated Assault First Degree felony. You could be potentially charged with aggravated Assault second-degree felony. You might be charged with attempted murder depending upon all of the circumstances that apply. I'm just I'm just stating something pretty basic, which is when you wear a uniform you're supposed to come correct that made you follow the constitution you follow the laws. And we'RE NOT GONNA put up with. American. Law Enforcement Federal agencies behaving like they're Putin's private police. That's not. See now this is so silly. 00:30:03 - 00:35:08 They're like they're behaving like they're Putin's private police. It's just ridiculous. You. Know to to say that the as though Somehow Vladimir Putin is calling donald trump saying, hey, why don't you get a some guys out there on the street in Portland because they're burning down the courthouse and over here in Russia we think that's really bad. Or is it that if you were patriotic You would let them burn down the courthouse is that what he's saying that that would be the right thing to do. The, you know. Ted. Wheeler wasn't protecting it Governor Brown? Wasn't protecting you. So president trump went in and protected at since it's federal property. Not let him continue happening here. You know these are just words. It's typical is typical trump just words he said this is going to take over us any and then that takeover. Looks like what one hundred fifty guys showing up in military gear alarm quite clear with the streets are I mean is that really what we're talking about so allows really just fluffing nonsense I don't think we should. I actually don't think we should worry too much about it other than to worry about the the possibility that this is playing into some you know typical game of divide and conquer that I think will not serve him. So. Divide and conquer is exactly what the whole Soros Open Society thing is about they want to divide the people who have an by open society. What they mean let me translate is one world government. Okay and so. They WANNA have a one world government, and what that means is that you eliminate borders, you'll eight national distinctions at every level. Okay and so when he's talking about the idea of not serving his interest, that's because he thinks that nationalism is bad. And that if you're interested in nationalism that somehow you are a problematic. Person So. That is the kind of content had related to this stuff. I've got a few other things queued up or teed up. So let's immigration grab a break real quick, and when we get back from the break over the break, if you want to call in make some calls. That's great. If not, we can talk about what I saw in her last night at the Lauren culp rally and so on and so forth. So the phone number is eight, six, six, nine, hundred, eighty, three eleven. If you WANNA call in that great. The facebook Messenger Youtube twitter messing here, kind of things are open to so I will be back. Shortly and Occidental. Republican podcast. Money Brian O'Kelly. I will be your Ford the balance of program I guess all the all the time on. Picking up the people depend on it and I need a guest host. People do as they do the best of shows right and. When the thing gets big enough nobody wants best of and then people want to sit in for him. So I guess at something maybe someday. So. Not Talk to the a little bit about why or last night with. Rally and and just what I saw there along with. Things. Nobody. Called in over the break. So and I can't actually take a phone call while I'm doing this because Well, you know you might be nuts and I don't have a call screener. So probably grab another break before it's done and. Go from there anyway So last night I went out to the Rally for the guy who wants to be the governor in the state of Washington, and for those who don't know around the country, this guy came to prominence. About, two years ago we passed a law in Washington state that was a gun lawn I don't WanNa. Get in the weeds on what this law was but long story short it was a restrictive law that the gun control lobby loved and the gun rights lobby didn't love and it's Not yet been determined to be unconstitutional but I don't know if that's been challenged regardless Lauren culp was the share of over way over on the east side of the state for those of you who don't know Washington state. Most of the population is on the west coast. The eastern part of the state is mostly agricultural and when you get way east or by the Idaho border, it is very, very little populated and Oak Dogan County over there is where Lauren. Call was the sure of. Or is the sheriff still I believe and He said when this law passed I'm not GonNa enforce it in my county. It's on constitutional I'm not doing it. You can't make me I took an oath to preserve and protect the constitution, and you are asking me to act outside of it and I won't do it. And so that's how Lauren culprits to prominence, and then this year we had this This primary election process and normally. 00:35:08 - 00:40:06 In the primary election, it's a top to kind of a primary thing and. But because the COVID, we had thirty, seven, thirty, eight candidates I think for governor on the GOP ticket and Lauren Culpa rose the top and beat them all and so I've seen him now in person twice and man this guy gets the constitution. He said any bill that comes across my desk. The first question I'm going to ask is it constitutional because? I don't care how much I like it or don't like it. If it's not constitutional, we can't do it and it's not gonNA hold up in the end anyway and What I've seen at these rallies now, a couple times is first of all. There's just a ton of people. There's a lot of energy on the right in this very, very blue state. There's a lot of red energy, which is the first time I've seen it really even when trump ran. Came and did a rally. There are a lot of people went to that trump rally but there was not enthusiasm for anybody on the gubernatorial side. Like this, this is very, very different than what we've seen here. Now, the the second the I noticed is that there were just a ton of people I mean literally like get a ton. Of People. Open carrying. Just, a lot of guys walk around with their hips and I'm not here to say that's good or bad, but I'll tell you what? If you're the person who wanted to come in and shoot that place. You weren't going to get a chance you're GONNA get one or two shots Hav, and you're going to be all done. There was just I mean first of all is a lot of law enforcement because Lauren call a police officer, right. But then also just people were comfortable open carrying in that environment. Another thing. I. Saw that was interesting is just a ton of not had masks on I couldn't say nobody but. Very few people have masks on I did see one Cunanan on great awakening shirt just one shirt like that, and so that was. Interesting. Now, the thing that I can share and is kind of an. I don't know how to say it's not really off the record. It's not a super big secret but. Let's just say that that our military has some unbelievable crowd control. Abilities okay these. Are Bases in the Middle East are. Very often surrounded by hostile crowds and that's just nothing new. It's been going for a long time. And not just in the middle. East. But other places to what America does unpopular things are basis get kind of surrounded by folks and. So we have some really effective crowd control. Methods and technology that we employ and when these things were happening in Seattle and I know some of these things have been happening in Portland. It's it's absolutely the One. Prosecutor there crowder from Philadelphia and the guys can't tell the difference between the street and the federal property. He's right on the street. The military can't operate posse. COMITATUS. Prevents that. But there's nothing that says that they can't give logistical support the people who are operating on the street. And this is really important. You know the the the COPs can't the military can't arrest you. But nothing says that the military camp provide intelligence or surveillance? Capabilities to the police that they arrest you with. As long as we're not violating the constitution. So those surveillance things would have a warrant and so on. But outdoor surveillance surveillance crowd doesn't require warrants, right. So the ability of pick out one voice from the crowd and identify who it is and identify one actor and some of those kind of things that the military has for capabilities but just say this. I, know I know now I had suspected but I now know that those capabilities have been brought to bear in some of these situations. What that means is there are a couple of big shifts here. That are very important and one is that the local police are not just on their own anymore. They are effectively every police agency that wants to. Has All of the women or all of the technology and support of the US military available them all they have to ask the president is making it available to them. So. PORTLAND. House a prosecutor Mike Schmidt. Came in down there and he was the George Soros back candidate, and so the police have come in there and. 00:40:06 - 00:45:14 The state police were coming in there and arresting people and they weren't getting prosecuted because of Mike Schmidt and so the state police pulled out of Portland. and. Said we'RE NOT GONNA. Waste our resources here if these guys aren't GonNa Bother, going to bother to prosecute them. Well the federal government said we will. They raise their hand will will prosecute them. We'll go ahead. We'll put them in jail. And so they're not getting charged with these local ordinances they're getting charged with federal crimes, and so the difference here is if they had been charged by Mike, Schmidt who wanted to keep them out of jail. do you want to go to jail? They would have been subject to a one year or two year local state of Oregon incarceration. But because Mike Schmidt decided not to prosecute. They're going to be prosecuted under federal law. which is going to put them in jail for somewhere between ten and forty years. And as this has ramped up, the complaints on the part of the left has been while you're trying to intimidate. People. Yes. That's the idea they're trying to intimidate people into not protesting or at least not into not protesting into not being violent when they do. So shifting gears, we'll come back I'm gonNA, take a break real quick actually I want shifting years old just said over to. The next thing John MacArthur is the pastor in Los Angeles of Grace Community Church and he has been fighting this ongoing battle with the county about opening up and having church services so they brought him into. The church and he brought people into the church, he said welcome to our protest. and. Then, the city got mad about that and has a snapped the lease on their parking lot and John. Macarthur now says, your have put me in jail and they're threatening that and he says, bring it on the angles been telling you for months. Blue states are using Cohen restrictions as a cover to launch an all out assault on your inalienable rights like you're right to religious liberty. Now. The tyrants in California are still pretty giving people for worshiping indoors all by executive. Fiat. But one pastor, he's fighting back to find a court order against enor- services and that man is pastor John Macarthur, and this is from the sermon. He gave to a packed hall of worshippers last Sunday. A. Pastor John. Macarthur of Grace Community Church joins me now macarthur why is this important for you to stand up to these owners edicts? Well. We believe that the Governor County, the city in the health department or going against the Constitution and just to remove one obvious question rate of Kobe in California is one one hundredth of one percent. So one one, hundred of one percent of forty million people have covid an ad eliminates freedom to worship from the entire state, the other ninety, nine point, nine percent right? The constitution supports s him by the way I am so thankful that president trump as told me personally that he supports church as essential and the churches need to stay open. So the Constitution on our side and the president's backing we're open. Pastor MacArthur Kamala Harris thanks we're in essentially rolled war to listen. This is not about punishment. It's about big brother is simply about saying a leader. What a leader says in times of crisis, and this is you can look at World War Two you look at the Great Depression where leader said. We each have to sacrifice for the sake of the nation and the collective and Mansa. This is about Half a million Americans die turn. World. War trying to free Europe. The same. To what you now to somehow justify depriving people of their inalienable rights to assemble to petition the government and of course, to worship as a community. Well of course, but it's more than that Laura. The Church Preaches the gospel of Jesus Christ Jesus died and rose again and the only source of eternal salvation when the church doesn't exist make sure it navigates around politicians whims the church exists in the world preached the Saving Gospel of Christ or not concerned about the flu we're working CERNA about eternity eternal life salvation, and the more dire circumstances become in the world around us the more critical. 00:45:14 - 00:49:48 The more essential the church becomes and the more important. The Gospel becomes I'll tell you something our church is literally flooded with people. We have them in every nook and cranny jammed together inside outside on several floors in our children's education building in the gym in a tent outside their flooding the place hear the message of forgiveness and salvation in a time when feared is being propagated on every. As. I listen to Selma. And the you know there's an old saying that says, in the time when all the world is a liar, people will flock to manny tells the truth. And that's John. Macarthur right now and he's telling the truth it's unconstitutional. It's illegal to restrict my movement. You can't quarantine me when I'm healthy. You can quarantine me when I'm sick or you have a reasonable suspicion that I'm sick. And so the. Contrast couldn't be more stark between the two sides in this debate or the two sides. In the discussion we've got the Joe. Biden. Side that wants to put literally everybody in a mask and make it the law that you don't have a choice and down to probably arresting you who knows here is Biden's pitch for a mask mandate by his own admission. He continued to lie about covert nineteen double down on the catastrophic mistakes that he's made, and perhaps worst of all made clear that he still doesn't have a plan. To bring us out of this crisis even said I quote. A lot of people think that masks are not good. Undercutting easiest most effective means we have reducing the spread of this disease I would call all the governors to the White House. And say because there's a question I think it's an can be answered in the positive a question whether I can mandate. Over state lines in every single state has to comply. Now our legal team thinks I can do that based upon the degree to which there's a crisis in those states and how bad things are for the country and if we don't do it what happens. But I would make the case. I'd make the case why it's necessary. Have the scientists to rate lay out in detail why and I would go to every governor and I go to governor's related Republican and Democratic Governors nine say we have to have this national manding we must do it. So. How does that make sense? How does it make sense that we have a national mask mandate? You know when when you have a state like you know Montana or no North Dakota or how how about this does it make sense to have a national mandate that includes Alaska? How about Guam what about Puerto Rico? How about these islands? They have the same breakout issues or infection issues everywhere else. To treat, New York City. And New Jersey and Los Angeles. The same is Cheyenne Wyoming. Or Chattanooga. Tennessee or. Panama City Florida just thinking about where some friends live you know or who knows you know a million other small towns. You know. Green Bay. Wisconsin. Is Not, Los Angeles, and the idea of treating all of these like a monolith is you know the old saying goes liberals don't care what what you do as long as it's mandatory. You know they just WanNa make sure that everybody is always being treated the same and they want equality of outcome, not equality of opportunity and such a big important difference in the philosophical difference between the parties. So thanks for joining. I'm going to wrap it up here and will head off to the weekend and yet the podcast out. So later today those who. were.

I Goti, hanno subito nel 376 dopo cristo una terribile sconfitta da parte dei Borg, pardon, degli Unni. Per non finire assimilati molti di loro sono fuggiti verso il Danubio, chiedendo asilo e soccorso ai Romani. Dall’altro lato del fiume i soldati dell’Impero si agitano nervosamente mentre due popoli numerosi e bellicosi si accampano sulle rive del grande fiume, con tutti i loro figli e le loro famiglie.Ma chi sono questi soldati romani? Come vivono e combattono? Chi sono i loro ufficiali? Immagino pensiate di conoscerli: solidi soldati romani ricoperti di acciaio, armati di scudo e gladio, inquadrati in legioni di 5-6 mila uomini, divise a loro volta in centurie e coorti. Soldati abituati a combattere a piedi e al comando di Centurioni con una specie di scopettone in testa.Eppure l'esercito del tardo impero era molto, molto diverso da quello che siamo solito immaginarci quando pensiamo ai Romani. Ahimè è anche meno conosciuto, visto che era una organizzazione per certi versi molto più complessa dell’esercito del principato, ed assai meno nota. Impariamo a conoscerlo meglio prima che Goti, Alemanni, Franchi, Svevi, Burgundi, Vandali e Unni ci si infrangano contro.---Per diventare miei mecenati: www.patreon.com/italiastoria.
