9:31 pm
blame on the woke da. we're going to bring you yet another tragic story. having tied to the late district attorney's office in crime is on the rise and every major city, but one neighborhood has had enough and it's asking it just the theda from the metropolitan area. is this going to be a trend for other neighborhoods who are not feeling protected or their liberal government? i'm scott hughes on today. that news news news. we're going to cover these stories as well as the response to the teddy roosevelt statue being removed from the american museum of natural history in new york city. lots to cover, let's get started. ah, we're going to start with president biden, giving an unprecedented press conference as a one year anniversary of being in office. now mixed reviews. however, on whether or not the press conference actually helped dispel the negative views of
9:32 pm
this administration and their policies. or did create to have more problems, obviously did not have the dramatic effects and democrats were hoping for. and later on in the evening, republicans to match the dreams of performing senate rules regarding the filibuster . that's putting the coffin of the voter rights bill into the ground. could this be a rough start to the 2nd year of the by to ministration? and how do democrats think it can improve? what's bringing our past? ed martin, chairman of phil shape legal forum and ladon jones, former georgia state representative. thanks for joining me. good gracious. yesterday speaks to our did. i've got to give him credit. he did it. he answered questions from the press for 2 hours. bravo. i would like to see that every week, summer probably can think has a great idea. some democrats are going, could we have ended it after the 1st hour. but i want to start with you with this one, ed, cuz i've got to ask you the expect to republican point is obviously criticize the
9:33 pm
presidency checks. i'm gonna switch it, i'm going to get it done. that was a given. but it was democrats like van jones, who said biden's answers were foggy at times like reagan at the end of his presidency press. president obama's former advisor, david axelrod, actually criticized by a bite and saying he missed the mark and focused on himself too much shocking politicians talking about them. so what don, i want to give the president credit, like i said, but you feel that he did more damage to his agenda considering what happened just a few hours later. you know, it's very difficult to talk to. so paper bag, this car presidency is not doing so well, but not passing legislation. that is there. and so what is that they want to before? and so what is necessary is that they give american the comfort. and you do that by presenting? well, we know republican talking points about buying it out of that. it's not so great and all the things they're making up was really important. then when you're given
9:34 pm
what is essentially a concession concession speech to losing legislation that you present it as if america is still very strong, i would have really much like to see by do something that brought some comfort that there may be some other legislation that he's promised that may get passed in the future. oh don, if only he had to advise, i think a lot of people would, i would appreciate it and we'd want to hear that regardless of who is in the oval office. you know, we don't like to hear that we're losing all the time, or that someone thinks that they've over promise no promise and deliver. but, you know, the white house is already had to circle back, and this one's been kind of a storm today on biden present. by the statement regarding the russian ukraine situation and as a republican, is there anything the president by that could have actually said yesterday, would you actually were suspected and been happy with his talk? well, you know, for some acknowledge, i think ladon is on to something in ladon, having been an elected official in the state house in georgia, knows the difference between being a politician and being
9:35 pm
a policy maker. it's hard, actually, we asked these leaders to do something really difficult, and later in the day or maybe this morning, joe biden admitted, i'm no longer a sen. i'm a president. i think that's a big change, right. he hasn't really settled into being an executive like obama did. and like trump certainly did. on the question you mentioned, i was going to go to at 1st the news out of this press conference was that within minutes during the press conference, the state department of state was trying to put back in the box. what biden's said about hooton's allowed to incursion into ukraine? we don't mind, but he's not allowed to invade in kiev. they said, what does that mean? and they had to put about more importantly than the actual substance of leading to i think wars. there were 3 or 4 times where the president was trying to make some point and got off a target. another one in my mind was the bull connor. he got mad about the question about bull connor, but he reiterated it again. and as i tell people, and i sent it with you a couple days ago, scotty, i'm not the one that was friends with strom thurmond. it was joe by right. i'm not
9:36 pm
the one who was paddling around with democrat segregationist. it's joe biden. now he's grown. i suppose, but his press conference had those confusing moments where the administration had to literally put out a statement. walking it back end. that's happened, the trumpet happened, obama. it felt jarring with by, cuz i think people were wanting something different. that was one of that hope and change that they were expecting falling president trump. but later on in the day, i think this is actually through a k, you know, very, very important people need to realize what happened. it was the defeated the plants reform, the senate rules regarding the filibuster and pushing to federalized elections. i don't think even democrat thought this was even going to be possible to pass phil ladon. what was the purpose of chuck schumer pushing this legislation? if he knew it was going to fail another loss in their category, you know, there's a lot of pressure coming from the democratic side should do something right. if they didn't put forth the legislation in, even if they have a hard time saying, oh,
9:37 pm
well, the republicans didn't pass it. so at a very minimum is a talking point. it shows that this again, like many of the other both are along party lines versus the democrats just didn't do anything. this legislation, particularly for democrats, is highly important. we saw many state legislatures create some laws that just really harken back to things that don't make sense. and we know that it was based on false claims made by our former president, whose name i don't even like to say. and it's a shame that this did not go through. it should have the legislation, is it? it just simply put into law things that were already the law that was uh, removed by the supreme court if a prematurely. so it's unfortunate this did not pass well and the one thing i did, i do have to ask you ad on this one, because after this move i get you can relate to the 1st 2 years. the truck was in office, he got nothing done. and even though he had the majority, and guess what,
9:38 pm
those republicans got kicked out. now we're in a situation. democrats can't get anything done and they're in power. i keep wondering what the point of having power, if you can't get anything done. but does this mean for the rest the year ed democrats are basically lame ducks until november, or until 4 years from now when they get the chance to be back in power because the person doesn't do anything. well, they certainly feel like it right now, but let me call clarify i'm when, when donald trump had the majority with paul ryan and mitch mcconnell, their great inside was to pass tax cuts. guys like me wanted them to pass deep on planned parenthood and conservative agenda. they'll go to the campus. all right, exactly, exactly. they went for that. they went for the stuff that was for the middle. i think biden's top corner top box schumer brought this up by the way, because humor has to fight off a primary. and he had to have, you know, the democratic party does have a problem like the republican party has to, from the, on the left. and you've got a l, c and others demanding this, but i also think that now they have to try to motivate the base on these issues. that frankly, the basis to look it up saying wait,
9:39 pm
you one and we put you in there and you didn't pass what we asked for when martin luther king. the 3rd and his family are saying don't give us a parade. instead, give us legislation and you deliver nada, you're not going to go motivate the base and say now run through fire and vote. i think they, i think they know they have a problem. the question will be, what can, by do as an executive now and my fear, i'll tell you the truth is, is that wag the dog. i mean, i don't want to see a war which changes our focus because i would rather just think it would be terrible for the country, but he's got a big problem in it. and it is a failure that hurts his base, which is the problem in 2022, an egg salad. that's a politicians do when they don't like things going their way in the narrative. they offer a distraction. it's never good for america. but the don and ed you are thanks for joining me. thank you. los angeles district attorney is being criticized for his liberal approach to crime law enforcement officials and opponents have raised concerns about the potential handling of 2 murder cases involving 2 women who die
9:40 pm
just stays apart. pretty. chavez has more on the story today. las district attorney george gaskin under fire for his alleged soft on crime approach. prosecutors in los angeles county continue to criticize their boss for his approach for holding suspected criminals accountable and a range of directives that critics say are to lenient in recent days. law enforcement officials and opponents have raised concerns about the potential handling of to murder cases involving to women who die days apart. and we look across the last 7 days. beginning with the loss of our officer. fernando royals, followed by brown has murder, senseless murder. unfortunately, it's also during time which we saw murder of a 7 year old woman sandra shells. a 7 year old nurse was sitting at a bus stop station in downtown los angeles, on january 13th, when she was violently attacked,
9:41 pm
she fell back and hit her head on the ground and died on sunday from her injuries. she was a kind person. i love in person, and on the same day, shells was attacked. brianna cooper was stabbed to death while working in a los angeles luxury furniture shop. the 24 year old graduate student was found dead by a customer. this individual responsible for this vicious st. louis and brutal crime . the walks amongst us, i am convinced that authorities arresting 31 year old sean laval smith in connection with her murder since taking office in december 2020 gaskin has come under intense scrutiny for his progressive directives that critics say in bold and criminals. some of his orders include elimination of sentence enhancement charges, 0 bill policies, and not prosecuting juveniles as adults for many crimes. meantime, mon foresman officials say homicides are up 94 percent over the last 2 years. for news views. hughes, trinity chavez, r t r y. i want to stay on the subject of crime and politicians of failure to
9:42 pm
protect their own communities. want to go down to atlanta, georgia, where the affluent neighborhood of buckhead is asking to secede from the metropolitan government. their main reason the rise in crime. so is this a good idea? well that that's the act for brand dominic ego, former a police officer dominic, thank you for joining me on this. you wrote a book out before the badge. everything you need to know before you become a couple. this is after you become a god. this is if you don't become a cop, do you think it's a good idea for the suburban areas to start plans to proceed from metro areas when they feel like they're not getting any attention? they have to do something because where do you think crime is gonna go? you know, if you're going to be constantly trying to get blood from the stone out of your area and you know police are cracking you down. you know, like out here in the chicago area, we got cook county. i'm in a suburb of cook county, i'm 20 minutes outside of the city, which is just right down. i 90 into a cost nothing for these. you know criminals to jump in their car, get on the tollway and just go to another neighborhood, commit crimes. suburban cops which i was one for quite
9:43 pm
a long time. yeah. we're not, we don't know who the players are. you'd commit crime out here in the area. go right back down to the city. it's going to be on. it's going to be a field day for everybody at that point. what do they have? any other choice? i mean, i remember back in the eighty's in the ninety's it getting so bad that neighborhood watch groups are not even effective anymore. is that eat more crime, that even these neighborhood groups can, can look out for who wants to be a neighborhood? watch when you go and do your job and then all of a sudden you do something and then you're going to be held liable because you confronted somebody like i trayvon martin was years ago. honestly. every time we want to come up with a solution for this problem, we keep just brushing the dirt lighter, needs a rug without doing this. what, what the news really start housing just has to do is, although i love talking about the stuff all the time. we have to have started psychologist, come on the news, and talk about the correlation between what social media, what the media does, how it fuels emotions and how you are getting all of these people who are so
9:44 pm
impressionable, being fed wise or mis truth, what not seeing their culture, their raise, their community, allegedly attacked by police, and what kind of frame of mind is yet put them in to go and commit crimes in a system where they're not held accountable or prosecutor released on bond. so this is an extremely dynamic living, breathing problem that we're just taking it one little piece of time at. and it really needs to be seen a lot more of a domain cos it get rail here. do you believe that will our actually have that conversation? we nathan very frank conversation uncomfortable conversation to have in the policy that would result from it. do you realistically thinking, especially the way that the world is say in 2020 the way we are here in the united states that that conversation can never actually happen? no, because problem self, right? yes, you are. if you have a business, any business in the world is designed to solve problems. if you're hungry restaurants, they're designed to solve your problem with giving you food. so politicians, both sides the left and the right. they are so great and either causing or allowing
9:45 pm
the problems of problems. private brach. awake, they run on the issues they keep getting reelected. we need to start going after the problem. the problem is our elected officials, the we start holding them accountable, you're gonna see a big change. well, these officials in atlanta are actually worried about the loss of tax revenue, especially considering bucket is one of the most a fluid areas not only in georgia, but the entire country. could there be any other disadvantage to a small community for me, its own la force, like you said, they don't know who the big players are in town, but do they lose any other sort of connection? i don't, i understanding as possible. i don't know how that would work because they still fall within a county's jurors just in the states jurisdiction. so i mean, a private security force, no matter what it is, they're still going to be limited in the scopes of their investigation. their use of force, i have no idea how that would even be remotely possible. and honestly, it's dangerous. it's extremely dangerous to look at that place as a residence. need to start to start showing up the village hall meetings, more demanding. i would love to see us go back in the day and age of towering and feathering. our politicians are throwing down like parliaments do. but until that
9:46 pm
starts happening? no, no, there's not gonna be a solution. it's like, okay, you bring the tar, i bring the feathers and i promise you it. we can come up with a long list of politicians that are actually deserving of it. thank you so much for joining me. x. c, take selfies or social media, but now are you going to need wine to file your taxes? well, we will a survey all the information without a selby after the break and the so called enhanced interrogation techniques used by the u. s. officials were basically designed as techniques to break down the human mind. if you force a human being to stay in a certain position doesn't take very long to the pain involved, to become absolutely excruciating, but nobody's lane finger on you. you are doing it to yourself and we started adopting those techniques when i was station in mosul among them,
9:47 pm
wordpress positions sleep deprivation. and usually i prefer me up. there is already beginning to be evidence that these old techniques are now being used on immigrant children. whatever you do in war comes home. nobody has been held accountable for the torture that happened in the past. the moral authority, the made america awarded or sacrifice the shimmer of effective interrogation. long mo, when i was sure seemed wrong when i just don't want you to shape out these name because the african and engagement equals the trail. when so many find themselves worlds of horn we choose to look so common ground.
9:48 pm
yes ma'am. oh oh, risky. in fact, will you, alyssa? typical there is only 9 but already 8 university students that away n slash a new month appointment. let's see. yep. you got the was restored to get a chance that he may come come no recalls. he will show control such programs. now. bush, nebraska, of course with level you're special, but i'm the yeah my but i just have a birthday and i was thinking what certified like was to get push him was an emotional something with soon lose with his teacher was reason this one
9:49 pm
is a good. 6 mm welcome to match as your financial survival guide. looking forward to your that's with yeah, this is what happens dimensions in britain. does this happen? you watch kaiser report? oh, what's the only thing you can think of that friendlier than the i r s. a turbocharged iris unleashed on the us tax base and hell bent on squeezing as much revenue as possible to funds social programs. give me the pupils please. now all of this is going to find new social programs, new infrastructure, and of course the u. s. war machine. now if you access the iris online,
9:50 pm
the government agency is making some really big changes to the sign off process or sign in to make sure you are who say you are. the new process comes after a number of high profile data breaches willing and will include requiring a live selfie of your face. discuss this dopey, ahead for the taxpayers. we welcome paralegal expert molly birth molly. i literally looked at it said you've got to be kidding me, right. and the fact that the selfie to file my taxes, i just want my money. just take it, whoever gives it in my name. good for them. go forward. give it. so why is this going to be necessary for id me to turn your smartphone into a video camera to prove your identity? doesn't the iris realize how invasive and scary this sounds? they should, they probably are just more scared of losses potentially because of the breaches that they've already had. you know, they had that contract with equifax. there was a breach. somebody got 100 plus 150000000 people had their social security number
9:51 pm
than other compromising information, personal financial data, confiscated, stolen by identity. so i think they are asked like, hey, wait a minute, we don't want this to continue. what can we do to make life even more difficult for the average american he already doesn't want to pay? there's where to go. the way of digital craziness. and we'll go ahead and have you do a live healthy, you know, in state by state, it kind of reminds me the process that i would do here in florida. just getting the new id or you have to give everything but a blood sample to prove that you are, you say you are. once you've done the, the heavy lifting on the front end, it's a little bit easier to renew. but walking through this process, reading about what the steps are with the i r s, it's pretty similar. you got to upload your build group or you live, upload your state id, upload your birth certificate, but you know, just uploading takes a long time. and what if the, you know, there's problems with your technology or, or a blip in the internet. so, you know, it's not exactly complicated, it's time consuming. and then it's going to take at least probably 3 or 4 hours depending on if somebody will actually come online and help you. because if you do
9:52 pm
register with this, i d dot me company which is do the iris is now using to verify who you are. once you've done that, then ideally it's going to be a lot easier to get online and be able to access all your information. it's just a lot of heavy lifting on the front end. but yeah, i mean, the fact you've gotta be live. i feel like you are, i'd rather just kind of jack. i mean, if i'm going to hire an accountant to do my taxes and files for me, what does that mean for them? are they going to have, are they still gonna be able to access my information? so from what i read, they will, but initially in order for the rest to believe that it's really you, you've got to go ahead and put your fabulous faith up there for them to see it. and believe that it's actually you, molly, a 3rd party contractor. there's 70 red flag, especially we were talking about such secretive nation like my social security number, how much money i make my family, there's so much information that the i r s gets. so it makes ago who is this 3rd party contractor id me who is behind him? and is someone actually getting rich with this new magical government contract that
9:53 pm
they have been the river stowed upon? will sure somebody is always getting rich on the government. i feel pretty sure like you mentioned the united states now may i getting rich? are you, i mean, i would like i know maybe we need to start looking into buying soccer id and me because apparently once you load up your information, there are concerns about that. just like you said, like all right, i've got to upload everything about myself or anybody could compromise and take advantage of my information. who are these people? like, you know, i refuses them. you upload your information with them. you're in like when with the i r s, but if you decide to go back and delete your information with id me, well guess what? you're no longer in the system with the i r s. they keep it, i guess they're going to say that they're say that you don't have to worry about it like they all say it until you're not safe until unforseen breach the whole system that they didn't fix, which is what happened with equifax and the ira. so,
9:54 pm
you know, it's the safe is they tell you it is until it isn't. it's like using your bank using a lot of like amazon, god love them. i mean, they certainly get enough enough of my money. but so many of these outlets these businesses have, like you said, potentially compromising information and this is just another one. so is id me trustworthy? well, we certainly hope those are the iris is relying on them and they're already understaffed and under funded. let's hope the people are going to get, you know, do the job that they're being paid to do well. and sadly, by the time we find out they're not, it's a little bit too late for a lot of us. thanks to try and evolve with the story another day, another historical statute has been removed. this one new york city's museum of natural history and theatre roosevelt. here are the story in the reaction are 2 density miles berg has to be depressed. an expert on all things, new york, steve, i have you on for the press. this time i'm going to have you on. as a new yorker tell me, why did they remove the statue of president roosevelt and who exactly was it
9:55 pm
offending? well, it was offending the usual suspects and you know, those who want to change our history, ignore our history and you know, and consider any part of our history to be racist, to be inherently racist. and that's what they're doing. this was voted on the by the new york city public design commission about a year or so ago, and they said they voted to take it down. why? because as you could see there, that's the president teddy roosevelt, and he's flanked on either side of it on the of the horse, one by a native american or in a native american and the other by an african man, as they called it at the time when they built this, the statue and people find that offensive us that, that the, at the 2 people surrounding the horse are in a subservient role. so it has to come down. that stature has been there for 80 years, 80 years. and you know, this comes on the heels, scotty of thomas jefferson,
9:56 pm
his stature being taken out of new york and new york city city hall. i so it, you know, this, and we have a song in 2020, in the wake of the george floyd riots. many statues come down. we saw what happened in charlottesville and we saw what happened in baltimore, where on july 4th of 2020, they took down. a mob took down christopher columbus through the river and nancy pelosi as that's our home town. nancy pelosi said, well, people don't want it and they asked, well, shouldn't it come down to a vote in a civilized way? she said, well, people will do what people will do. they're all nuts and it's dangerous and you don't, you can't get rid of your history, you know, all but al, they the king. doctor martin, the king's niece said we should leave these statues up and talk about why they are there. i mean have a discussion. you don't get rid of it and make believe that it never happened. george washington, thomas jefferson, abraham lincoln, now they're all targets. and believe me, eventually they'll all go. this is all counterproductive. yes. are very bad parts
9:57 pm
of american history and you know what, i want to remember that because guess what, when you're not putting those points out there to be remembered, then it can be rewritten or can be a race. and that's when you learn to reproduce it. that's why this is important to us, and if you look at any sort of culture throughout time, steve, you know that when they start taking down the statues, they forget that is on purpose. they are doing that because they don't want you to remember what it used to be like and what it was like to actually overcome and become better. but now, like you mentioned, we're seeing all these different steps in the last few minutes. do you think we've seen it so many times that people are like another statue gone and so therefore they're not even fighting this statue. cancel culture that exist. yeah, i think if you took a poll most americans would say, you know, leave, they leave the statues alone, you know, you know, teddy roosevelt. i mean it wasn't a racist me dispatch. like i said, it's been a mainstay. your walk by the museum of natural history and it's, it's always there and they, in the middle of the night,
9:58 pm
under the cover of darkness. however, you want to praise it. that's when they took this down. and all that's left now is the stand under the statue. and yeah, i mean, this is a hard core minority of people in this country. politically correct. but unfortunately, a lot of them are in power positions of power, like the new district attorney of, of new york city was not going to prosecute, cries and like in other cities, the public doesn't believe in that. but somehow they, both these people in or these people are appointed to boards. and the next thing you know, this is what happens or worse. the mobs in the street like in baltimore and elsewhere that just destroyed the statues and take them down to the peers of their own kind in the crowd. so it has to be severe penalties for doing that or it won't stop thank fi culture at its best. they want to forget history, but we won't ever forget you. thank you, steve montfort. i say cover a lot on today. show one here thought to me at godaddy, and he's hash tag team and v 8. thanks for watching the thing.
9:59 pm
ah, on this addition to the program, we discussed the ongoing nato, russia pensions. we ask, what is nato strategy also, what is russia strategy dealing with nato, the sport expansion, and what are the likely outcomes for both lucy, it's a whole universal says, simplest possible form and got started. and all that needed to be done with it before actually. and then universe staff expanding so where those in creations come from and, and hopefully the switch that is not the kind of question the science can. so
10:00 pm
ah, the russian culture vaccines wouldn't agree demonstrates a strong protection against the recently emerged on the constrain, according to a new italian study, and also produces a more anti bodies than the pfizer jap. criminal negligence. that is how russia's foreign ministry is describing the work of some western journalists seeking to mislead the public into believing russia wants to invade ukraine. despite continuous denials from moscow officials disturbing declassified video shows the seconds before a u. s. drone kill 10 after em civilians. many of them children who were playing on the street in one of the most appalling incidents of the botched withdrawal from the country. joe biden says he makes no apologies whatsoever for the disastrous pentagon pull up the.
