03-11-26 Part One - Is This Journalism?!

Now, it's Red Eye Radio, Gary McNamara, and Eric Hurley,

“talk about everything from politics to social issues and views of the day,”

whether you're up late or you're just starting your day. Welcome to the show from the Relief Factor Studios. This is Red Eye Radio. All across America, we are runny radio, he is there currently and I'm Gary McNamara. Good morning.

Hello. All right, yesterday was one of those days, we're just reading the headlines. Well, to quote Senator Kennedy, really heighten my gag reflex. Yeah, let's see what he said. We'll get to that coming up because that was just great.

But just some of the headlines, Whippy Goldberg claims,

Trump's actions in Iran are meant to distract from the Nancy Guthrie case. Wow. I don't think I saw that one coming. Oh, I know it was. You trigger my gag reflex reflex reflex reflex.

This sub headline from National Review about the two terrorists who threw the bombs. The other day from Rich Lowry. Hey, some people in New York City throw bombs. Others don't.

Diversity is our strength. Wow. But the favorite one. Actually it was from two days ago that CNN had to apologize for. And say they were wrong for doing it.

I have to believe they're keeping alcohol in their desk. Well, if there's ever any evidence,

because we've always said they're political activists and not journalists.

Yeah. This is a perfect example. Yeah. Two Pennsylvania teenagers crossed into New York City Saturday morning.

“For what could have been a normal day enjoying the city during abnormally warm weather?”

But in less than an hour, their lives would drastically change. As the pair would be arrested for throwing homemade bombs during an anti-Muslim protest outside of Mayor Mondani's house. Here's what we know so far. Oh, my. Wow.

Gosh. It's like somebody is taking an online writing class. Find the most bizarre way to write this story. And they did. And as if these, as if these two terrorists just stumbled into New York City,

unseasonably warm Gary. And they were just destroyed over that. Gosh. I love this one. Lips of TikTok wrote this one.

Mohamed Ata boarded a plane on September 11, 2001. For what could have been a normal flight enjoying the friendly skies. But his life would drastically change when he found himself in the cockpit of the plane right outside of New York City's skyscraper. Yeah. It's as if they just stumbled into it or it happened to them.

Yes. It was it was almost as if over at CNN, they were saying. How we phrase it to make it look like they just got mixed up and they were the victims really. They didn't choose to do this.

“Well, here's the thing as political activists.”

Are you even attempting to try to have credibility so people buy into it? Is there even an attempt or are you such a delusional? Political activist because the goal of political activism is to convince people and send them in a particular way to sit there and say terrorists who through bombs at civilians. Somehow just happened to be caught up in it. I'm a victim of circumstances.

Yeah, I just stumbled into it. You know, something, some outside forces coerced me into doing this or it was just. The natural order of things that just happened not to go our way that day. Listen, it's a beautiful day. What do you say?

We had into the city.

Sounds good.

“Well, could have been a wonderful day for Gary McNamara golfing.”

Just took a turn as he took out his gun and shot Eric Harley in the head and then went out and shot a 73.

Well, do you know number one, you know it's a false story because I don't go. Well, no, I stopped by your house. In fact, if you see me near a golf course. Maybe that's how you handle it. Sorry.

Sorry, something's wrong. As a political activist, I would not have gone that far. Yeah. You wouldn't wait till you get to the golf course, you do it somewhere else. Well, no, I wouldn't have tried to convince people that you were in a golf course.

You know, it is a, it's again, a bizarre, it really was this is the effort really is to make it look like these two were victims. And they didn't plan this. You know, I wonder if the defense lawyers will say, look, read CNN.

These guys were fixed on this.

You know, this is a warm day that stop for some popsicles.

“Read, read, read, read, read CNN CNN, this isn't premeditated.”

Right. You can't look at the system. This wasn't premeditated. You can't make, look, read the CNN article. But the, the, we've said this before.

We know that they have no shame. We know that the lie. And, you know, and we, we go all the way back to when Republicans were saying after the Mueller report. See, we hope when we started, you know, when the public started learning when officially we learned there was nothing to the Russia collusion hoax. And then as we learned over the years, it was a Hillary Clinton set up on the Trump campaign.

Yeah.

And at that point, you had Republicans and some of the conservative media stating, well, we hope this is a lesson to the Democrats.

You know, that they, and we went stop it. Stop with that because what you're doing is you're attempting to make the case that that was bad journalism. It wasn't bad journalism. It was exactly what they intended to do. They're not journalists.

They're political activists norm. And their goal is to just throw stuff out there because they believe that the people that vote for them in a significant number of independence are complete idiots. They wish to be willfully ignorant and don't want to know the facts. And they know they can set them in a particular direction. But if you make the case, even if you're lying, make the lie somewhat credible.

You read that headline. It's a Babylon be headline. It's whole, I mean, the headline itself is hilarious. All right. I have to check.

If the Babylon be didn't something on it. Let me just check. They haven't yet. They probably will. Does it blew up?

I mean, yesterday's morning. Oh, my. It went over the top crazy. Oh, my. Yeah.

You ready for this? All right. What do you got? CNN reports on Japanese teenagers who came to Hawaii for what could have been a beautiful day at the beach.

Yeah. There's your Pearl Harbor headline from CNN. I mean, that's exactly it. Make it sound as innocent as possible. We can't.

“For whatever reason, why do you go out of your way?”

Because this, this wasn't just one person. This is their social media account. This is just someone going, or AI, just writing something and posting it. Although, that's been a lot of layoffs lately. I'll say it.

Wait a minute. Would that be the problem with liberal AI? Would liberal AI? I don't know. I guess that's the problem with AI all together.

Garbage in garbage. Well, no, I think there's too much because there's so much. There's a lot of liberal slants on everything. I think that's part of the reason that AI isn't near what people think it is right now in terms of gathering information. Because it gathers also gathers a lot of liberal agenda crap and just mixes it in depending on the topic.

But this, this was an effort to make it seem like, you know, they weren't just they just stumbled. They're just, he's just a Maryland dad.

This is exactly who they are on the left.

Again, their activists make it seem innocent. Well, you're just to find terrorism. Yes. You're trying to downplay a terrorist act just another day.

“Why would, why would anybody in the United States do that?”

Why would you want sympathy for two terrorists? Right. Why? Who will throw bombs to kill unarmed people? Unarmed citizens?

Why in the world would you? Why?

Because you're a full-on radical.

They're radical. And they agree with the terrorist act. I've been saying since I've been saying since October 7th, the radicals have shown who they are. And that if there is a 9/11 type attack on US soil again, I'm positive.

You will have these radicals. American radicals out there in the streets cheering them on.

“There's one more headline from the Babylon be.”

Many worried that the giant spiders attacking New York could lead to an increase in hateful or rack nephobia. painful. And you should see the picture.

It's like you've got this spider in the people around.

It's a spider. That's great. Remind me. What was the movie? The one like the giant spider like creatures?

No. No, no, no, no, no. A quiet place too. That was filmed near where my dad lives. In downtown, in New York when the spiders came down on the cars.

“Whatever they were, I never saw the movie.”

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. It's, um, look. It's no shock.

And if you back away from it and ask yourself, okay. Walk yourself through the process of writing this, that's seeing it. Because again, it's multiple people doing. Are you going to put me through this torture? Go ahead.

You're walking through the process. Again, it's, we start by, well, let's tone it down. They're just two Pennsylvania teenagers. These are two individuals by the evidence that were inspired by ISIS and the evidence, by the way, was presented by themselves.

They presented that evidence after they were detained. This is what they told authorities. Yeah. It, it couldn't be clearer. It's not as if.

They were held captive by a couple of people and then coerced into doing something like this. They chose to do this. They planned to do this. So let's just start with two Pennsylvania teenagers. There's a story of the home that they, that they lived it.

You know, it's a, they're, they're families doing from Afghanistan doing very well. It, well, Ben Laden was very wealthy. Yeah. Also a terrorist. You know, there, it's, you want to, you could write that about Ben Laden.

One of the world's richest men decides one day. He's got a new mission in life. I mean, how stupid do you want to get? Yeah. They, it's, it's like they want to play stupid.

So that the public themselves don't, we'll tone down the rhetoric and look away. It's, it's the Gavin Newsom approach. I don't even know where my birth certificate is. I'm stupid like you are. I, I didn't, these are just, it's just a couple of teens from Pennsylvania.

That's, don't look at this story. Don't talk about the story of the water cooler.

On X.

Just some, this is the problem.

“When you do something in the media where you can be mocked.”

Yeah. Because it's so easy to show the insanity of what you're doing. Yeah. That's the problem. We've said one of the worst things you can do in politics is write something or say something

that can obviously be mocked because it's so absurd. For example, this one came up. Ted Bundy was a charming law student heading to a Florida State University sorority house in January of 1978 for what could have been a normal night enjoying the college scene. But his life would drastically change when he found himself in the bedrooms of sleeping co-eds

with a crowbar. Yeah. When he found him, they just, yeah. He just stumbled into something and when they got over to the city. It was just an outing.

Here's one. He was an art student, vegetarian and a dog lover. But it was Adolf's gift for public speaking that brought him fame and fortune as a popular political leader. Little did he know.

He would soon find himself named Reich Fierre during a chaotic time in German history. Yeah. I mean, these things are hilarious. Yeah. Because they're so absurdly wrong and the goal is to send you in a different direction

from the evil of someone. Yes. And that's what they were trying to do. Exactly what they're trying to do. Don't talk about the story and how horrible it is that these two young people have been radicalized

to this extent. We can't have that. Yeah. We are Red Eye Radio. Brought to you by Hot Shot Secret.

Hi. I'm Thomas, a transport safety expert at JJ Keller. Due to safety concerns, many motor carriers have policies that limit or prohibit the use of cruise control.

“You should only use it in good driving conditions during daylight hours and on roads that have light traffic, few curves or hills”

and a consistent speed limit.

Never use cruise control when operating in adverse driving conditions, including wet, icy or slippery roads.

During brush hour and heavy traffic or on congested highways at night or when you're tired or fatate. You want to be controlling and adjusting your speed as you drive instead of having to suddenly break if you encounter an obstacle. In the case of a slippery road surface, you want to be able to slow your vehicle by not accelerating instead of using the brakes whenever possible.

Okay, one more and we're done. All right, to make the comparison of the CNN story yesterday that said two Pennsylvania teenagers crossed into New York City Saturday morning for what could have been a normal day enjoying the city during that normally warm weather. Less than an hour their lives would drastically change. Yeah, as the two would be arrested for throwing homemade bombs during an anti-Muslim protest outside of the mayor's home.

And then somebody wrote, "Jeffrey Delmer ventured out into the bustle of Milwaukee on a warm summer evening for what could have been a normal weekend night of Elfresco dining. But in less than an hour, his life would drastically change." Yeah. It shows the absurdity at CNN, just like Mayor Mondani, who was trying to make the moral equivalence of the January 6 rioter who was out there saying, you know, basically, you know, Muslims are taking over the city.

And so he views that, he named the man's name as he, you know, basically the moral equivalency of trying to blow somebody up.

Right. And as I said yesterday, I mean, that's one of the saddest things in New York City is to see what's going on there, to see that they actually, you know, forget it.

“You know, I don't forget 9/11, never forget, forget.”

They wish to encourage actions of terrorism in New York City, or have the moral equivalency, it's the same as speech. Tired of partisan noise? America's more divided than ever, but independent Americans is adding light to contrast all that she-- independent Americans daily news with Army veteran Paul Rikov. Pressing issues of the day, the leaders who are shaping what America will be in the future.

We're going to bring the righteous media 5/5 independence, integrity, information, inspiration, and impact.

Independent Americans, from belief, follow and listen on your favorite platform. You're listening to Red Eyewitness, from the Red Leaf factor studio. And I'm hearing McNamara along with Eric Hartley, all right, the politics of war. Audio coming up here from Republican Senator, in fact, Josh Hawley, in just a couple of minutes. A lot of great audio on the way.

I want to talk to you about something though first.

So many things of the world being out of our control. It can be frustrating, you know, controlling your painting isn't beyond your control. In fact, I'm doing it with relief factor. I know firsthand. And you can too.

“All you need to do is take the first step.”

That's the three week quick start. It's very simple to do. I've been using relief factor for quite some time. It works for me. I want this for you.

Living with aches and pains is something you can do something about. Relief factor is 100% drug free. Research-based formula created to help the body's natural inflammatory response function for key ingredients going to work for you every day. I take it every day. You should too.

Try relief factors three week quick start. Just 19.95. Relief factor dot com 800. The number four relief. Relief factor dot com 800.

The number four relief is the phone number. Use red eye at the drop down for your three week quick start at just 1995. A couple of things there. It was yesterday. I saw Mark Halprin.

It was far as I know it was a lifelong Democrat. I don't know where he stands right now. But when he was ABC political director. Without question, I used to interview him all the time.

He, he, I always viewed him as a liberal.

Or remember the infamous Ted Cruz interview. Are you actually Cuban? Oh, yeah. Yeah, exactly. Yeah.

Are Cuban music do you like? What kind of Cuban food do you like? Can you speak Spanish? Whether his, whether his changes legit. Yeah.

Where he seems to be analyzing things correctly. Right. Yeah. As Bill Mar is. Right.

You know, neither of them had been asked to say,

“You know, well, as the question, why have you changed so much over the last few years?”

You know, what? Well, I guess Bill Mar has. Bill, because he said, well, I didn't change, you know, they went crazy. Is what he has stated. But remember, Bill Mar, and we played the audio the other day,

was completely behind that the evidence existed that Trump, you know, that Trump and the Russians colluded and that the 2016 election was not legitimate. Right. You know, he was huge on that. We played the audio just the other day because it came up.

Uh, we had, uh, we were talking about just what an angry man. Keith Oberman is. Uh, and the name seems to be getting angry. Yeah. Yeah.

I mean, every time it's like he's, and I think it's because nobody's listening. I think it's because he, each time that he gets angry, nobody cares. Fewer people care each time and that has to be frustrating for somebody like him. Well, it, it does go back to what we were just saying about how CNN wrote that headline. Uh, because so what was it, uh, when, when Oberman came out.

And attack Riley Gaines and just said, you just don't want to compete with better competition. Which is why she doesn't want to compete with Matt. Right. You just sat there and went, my God, that's so bad. I mean, it's just so bad. I mean, it's just, you're, you're not going to convince anybody on that.

And the anger, you could just read it on the, on the post. The anger was just, he's so furious.

“Uh, and I just, I've always wondered, how does it get through life every day being that angry?”

And where does that kind of anger come from where you throw out such absurd statements? And he went after Lou Holtsy other day, you know, two on that. But, um, you know, I, you know, so, but Mark Halpern, uh, talked about what we have said, even if the Iran war ended today. Uh, the, what the president has accomplished in destabilizing that regime and taking their way, their ability to attack other countries is more than all the presidents together for the last half century.

Yeah. And I went, that's true. Yeah. In fact, we had said that yesterday and added, but if you don't, if you don't accomplish your goals,

Right. Because as we had said, uh, the last couple of days that the community, you know,

Hague Seth says one thing in the president says almost the opposite. Mm-hmm. He's going to be a short war. No, this is going to continue until we get everything done. Well, you guys got to get on the same. And a lot of criticism was, was, in fact, contradicting himself within a couple of hours day before yesterday.

Yeah.

“So, and it's like, on a war, you can't do that. You need to be specific.”

And everybody needs to be on the same plane. Right. On the same narrative. Right. And it's just like, wow. And you don't try to convince and change what you believe in convincing American public during the war. You do all of that before it begins or at the beginning of it.

And, you know, that's why you and I said, it was the last week. He should be making a,

you should be making a prime time address on this and lay out everything that we're trying to do, including having a number of goals, because that was one thing up front. Well, you, you said, this is a goal, but you have other goals too. That's right. We do. Yeah, we got this goal, this goal, this, you know, because if you lay it out, it's easy to explain it. We wish we were to their ballistic missiles, so they can't be a threat to the Middle East.

We wish to get rid of their nuclear program, so they aren't a danger to the world. And we want that government out, and we want the people of Iran to be self-governing in the secular democracy, which the opposition groups, which would be in there for a transition government all want.

“I did that, I live, I got nothing written down. It's not that hard.”

Now, he said that in the eight-minute speech. I'll give that to him. He actually laid that out, which got to lay it out every single day, every single day. You've got to lay that out every single day. Well, again, it's the people live in the bubble of today. Right. And, and if you're not in that bubble every day on something like this, then it's all for nothing. If you can't get the messaging on it, then you don't get the wind politically.

And I said that because day one, you and I talked about the eight-minute speech. I said, "It's the most perfect speech he gave." In eight minutes. I mean, nothing. There was nothing there that the American public, if you look at it, would say, "Okay, yeah, he's right on that." And you see, because when he said this is going to be, this isn't going to be a long thing, you've got showed 74% of Americans agreed with him.

And that's Trump. And that's military action from Trump. Yep. And he said, "What he said, we're going to do on that day." The American public agreed with what he said the plan was and the length of time to do it. Well, and, you know, it's a, it is a very, it's a fluid situation.

Always a fluid situation because you can't be watching a clock,

but people expect you to be on the clock. People expect this thing to be over. You know, they want to done it a week or a weekend. And that's where the prime time address comes in. To be clear, this will be an ongoing effort. And it's up to Iran. We hope that we hope that it will be short.

Yes. But our goal is not a long term situation. But we believe that overall achieving true peace in the Middle East requires this action. And we're not alone on that. And we will do whatever is necessary to accomplish all of our goals.

And it was wrong to say weeks or days. Don't put in exact time. Don't, don't ever say it on it. Don't ever say it. But you know, Senator Mark Kelly came out and said the Iran conflict is not going well. Hmm.

He's delusional. Yeah. Here's, here's Josh Holley on Fox News talking about it. So you have one of your colleagues, Senator Kelly, saying the word is not going well. How could he say that?

Well, I would say this just if you look at our overriding priority here, which is to deny nukes to these crazy people.

“How can you look at what's happened in the last year?”

I mean, you had Trump taking out the nukes back in June. Now you've had the last 10 days. Did anybody really think that these people are ever going to try to make a nuk again? What would they make it with? Like charcoal?

I mean, this is an overriding success. Our military is astounding the world. And I agree with what the president said last night. You look at all the success that we've had in the last 10 days. I mean, this thing is a victory.

I think we should be hailing our military as the heroes they are. We ought to be thanking them for their service. And we ought to be saying we've achieved our objectives here.

I would like -- Now, where I disagree with him is if the regime stays in and a future president comes in if Trump is gone, no, they will attempt to rebuild their nukes or arsenal. Yes. But that's why it's clear.

And it's also okay that this is about regime change.

“And it must be because you have to change the mindset has to be gone.”

The will has to be gone as long as the regime remains though their will to get nukes will remain. That's as simple. It's -- you know, you look at the players here. Because Russia is now saying, no, we didn't give them any intel.

And, of course, we believe everything that Putin says

because he's never lied even once.

Because he's a nice guy. Because he's a nice guy. But it's Russia or China. We didn't mean that. Yeah.

Somebody will say that. Somebody's just going to go -- You guys said you were going to -- No. That was sarcasm.

Yeah.

“And we're going to get a lengthy email on that one.”

It's -- it's Russia, China, or both.

And I tend to believe it's -- it's both.

But you look at that situation. You look at the entire equation. This is why the reminder, I believe, is necessary to messaging has to be there constantly. It's -- the victory here belongs to the world.

The victory here does not belong to the U.S. and Israel. It belongs to the Middle East. It belongs to the U.S. Israel, Europe, and every piece loving nation. This is a true victory so far.

This by all definitions is a real victory. But you can't put a clock on it. You can't pretend to have an exit ramp that says the word "this Thursday" on it. But the conundrum is politically. The public is asking you to have an exit ramp.

Let's go back to Iraq, Afghanistan. Because after it goes on for too long, then it is -- well, where's the exit strategy? By the way, I wouldn't recommend the Joe Biden exit strategy. See Afghanistan as an example.

This is a political situation, though, that will -- for any president, that will be right up there with the economy, especially when it affects the economy, because oil prices are high as a result of it.

You know, you couple that with what's going on right now with TSA, all the stories about TSA yesterday, just now that just piling up, saying it's getting worse. It's getting worse. It's getting worse.

We talked about it. But more and more stories about it. And it becomes the headache, right? Because we're in a spring break season for schools. You know, it's not the start of the summer travel season yet.

But spring break season. But any local story and all the local stations are doing -- you know, how's it affecting our airport? They're doing that story. Oh, so you think about -- they're doing the story on gasoline.

You know, where's the most expensive gasoline in our area? Where's the cheapest gasoline in our area? The local media, as we've sent for a long time. A lot of times, we'll do the story that may help you politically. It also, on things like this, is going to be boom in the minds of

those viewers every single day.

“That's why you're messaging also needs to be every single day”

on the success so far of your mission and the intent as well. We are right, I radio. Coming up more with Gary McNamara and Eric Carley. It's red eyed radio. [ Music ]

We are on our radio. He's our chrony and I'm Gary McNamara. I'm just looking at this headline. And it's like our Democrats are hoping for this.

It's like second warmest winter in USA history.

Yeah. Well, it wasn't in Buffalo and it certainly wasn't in Texas. Yeah, it's interesting, I saw too.

And then halfway through the story, I think it was from Washington Post.

“And I think halfway through the story, it was.”

Or maybe it doesn't happen. There isn't a real consensus on this. And I'm like, then why did you do the story at all? And me or me, not what I liked was. So Democrats whose goal, whose legislative goal,

was to skyrocket gasoline prices. So people bought electric vehicles are now upset over higher gas prices temporarily. Yeah. [ Laughter ] Exactly.

It's Trump's fault. But don't you guys want to get people out of gasoline vehicles? Yes, and that would be Trump's fault. [ Laughter ] That doesn't make sense.

It doesn't. [ Music ] Top of the hour news is brought to you by Hal product. Visit HalProducts.com.

This is Red Eye Radio on Westwood One.

[ Music ] Now, it's Red Eye Radio. Gary McNamara. And Eric Hurley, talk about everything from politics to social issues. And news of the day.

Whether you're up late or you're just starting your day. Welcome to the show from the Relief Factor Studios. This is Red Eye Radio. [ Music ] All across the USA.

We are Red Eye Radio. He is Eric Hurley and I'm Gary McNamara. Good morning. Hello. You know, one of the themes we've had this week is with the Democrats.

It's got to the point where nothing makes any sense anymore. They say stuff, and it's like it doesn't make any sense. It doesn't make any sense. It's almost like the Democratic --

Do we set this a couple weeks ago,

“that I can pair the Democrats to putty on sign-felt?”

Yeah. Yeah. I think I did, didn't I? Yeah. Because when putty in a lane, we get into a fight and he would just start talking.

And she goes, "I don't even know what you're talking. It doesn't even make sense." Right. And it wouldn't. I mean, they purposely wrote it where he made no sense.

Right. And it's where Democrats are. Let's give -- I'm going to give you another example. Here we go. Okay.

Where was this slide? Was this CBS 24/7? All right. Democrat Gabe Amo. Listen to this here.

All right. As you were probably aware, Congressman, lines are lengthening across the country at airports because TSA employees, not receiving a paycheck, are having to make other plans other than being at their day job.

Because their money is not making it as far as it used to. Win and how is this going to be resolved? Well, as a member of Congress, I find myself in airports quite often. And it's important to me that the TSA agents are paid

like they deserve to be for the important work that they're carrying out.

“And that's why many Democrats, including myself,”

is said, "Let's fund the rest of the Department of Homeland Security except for ICE." Because right now Donald Trump is making a choice. He -- No.

Right there. That makes no sense. Right. ICE is already funded. Right.

They're funded through 2029. ICE isn't a part of this. No. What he is saying doesn't make any sense. There is no argument.

They're not going to -- Oh, okay. We want the funding you had in the bill. You need to pull from 2029. That's not happening.

No. That was not going to happen. And it doesn't make any sense. Well, again, it really is about -- And I think the Democrats believe they can get to a point

of abolishing ICE, or at least pretending like they made a move that got them closer to abolishing ICE. When is you point out the funding's already there for ICE? TSA's separate and -- and you're not funding TSA. Right.

And you just said, "Well, it's funded." Well, that's the question. Why aren't you? We don't want -- wish to fund -- well, fine. And if you get to 2029, then the --

the fund ICE at that point, but it's already funded. Right. They're not going to defund it. No. We know that that's something that you want to fund the military.

Defund. Yeah. Defund ICE to fund the police. I mean, that -- we know anything that has to do with law enforcement. We know Democrats wish to defund.

especially fiscal conservatives, would like to defund everything.

[ Laughter ] And rebuild the necessary roles. But this is where -- you know, this is where they are. They think they're getting the edge here because they think they're winning. They think firing Kristi Nome was capitulation.

They think they're making strides against the whole ice thing, and that they can at least demonstrate even if they don't get fully there, which they won't. They're not going to abolish ICE. But they can go back to their districts and say,

we did something about it and Nome has gone. They can't hold out on this much longer. I don't believe they can. Again, the local stories are getting too big and too numerous for them to hold out on this, especially again when you're talking about spring break.

But just travel in general.

The local news, every local news station, is what does it look like at our airport? How long are the delays at our airport?

“How long how early should you get there ahead of your flight?”

You know, when we had said this when you had Governor Abbott, start offering to anybody in the country. You want a bus ride? Go here. And you and I said, what's going to change this?

Because we got the immediate reaction back. Well, the National Media is not going to cover it. It doesn't matter. The local stations will. Why?

It's an easy topic. Yep.

It's a very, you don't have TV stations, for example,

doing as much complicated investigative reporting as they might have done 30 years ago. Right. Just isn't the case. Right. They just don't.

These are the easy stories for local stations to cover. Yep. Buses dropping off illegal immigrants. But that our city is not going to spend millions or billions upon. Well, you're going to put that on because you know there's going to be fury from the citizens going,

why, you know, if we don't like Abbott doing this,

“but why or why don't we just send them somewhere else?”

Why are we going to have to foot the bill for that? You know you're going to have that type of argument back and forth. Yep. And so the, the, the same thing here. And you're right, airports.

Oh, my gosh. Some, anything that happens at the airport, you got to local TV stations on. And even for people that don't fly, you get a reporter standing in front of a big,

long line TSA line at your local airport. It's like, oh my gosh, look at this. Why is this happening? That's the first thing. Why is this happening?

Well, I guarantee this thousand mile front cold front that we're experiencing, you know, right now. Right back in here, the rain. It's hitting very, very hard on our roof. I can hear it.

“You know, if, if it happened in the morning time or even last night,”

they'll be talking about that this many flights were canceled. The media covers what happens at airports constantly. So now when you've got. Think about this. You've got Houston.

They, they've got to be celebrating over this. The media. Oh my gosh, people waiting for it to have five hours. They're really going to be ticked off. Yeah.

No, it's a big story. Yeah, locally. My, you, you just, you know, I don't know the politics of my street. But we have a group text. If anything happens, we can communicate.

And as I said, two days ago, it started. Everybody fill up this morning, fill up this morning. Gas at three, everybody's like giving a report. I, I really don't. Unless there's somebody, there's a violent thing in the neighborhood.

I really don't get involved in it because I, you know, I would rather. I just would rather not. I don't argue with my neighbors, especially when they know what I do for living. I don't really get involved in it. I have enough doing this.

Yeah. To my neighbors, it's what can I do to help? What can I do to help? What can I do to help? That's about it.

I don't really get into. It's, it's not worth it. Right.

Um, because I know some of my neighbors, I mentioned the one neighbor that, uh, was just, you know, when on Facebook. A couple of years ago and said, if you voted for Trump, unfriend me right now. And I did.

Yeah. I did see the post disappeared though. Month later. Yeah. And so, you know, so that kind of, that kind of stuff happens.

But, uh, yeah, you look at all of this here, especially, uh, airports and, uh, you know, uh, delays. Um, what was the other one? Well, I mean gas prices. Okay.

That's right.

It's going to be, it's always going to be on top of mind.

And it's always going to be a big local story. Um, and the, when the local, when everybody in the local media is covering it, and everybody in the national media is covering it, there's your difference. Is that you really can't get away from the story. And the fact that it's affecting so many people.

Not everybody flies, but of course with gasoline prices. You know, and, and it doesn't even have to be the case that people, whether people are flying or not. It's like, oh, look at the, all the delays. Why is this happening?

Why is this happening? I can't imagine standing in line for whatever it is. Well over an hour or two hours, whatever it is. That's going to be, that's going to get the attention to people. I don't know where it goes with the Democrats.

I don't know how long they can hold out on this. I don't know, I don't know how long they think they can hold out. Well, I, I played that because you could see when being interviewed, they didn't have an answer. Well, no, we're for funding.

We're for funding it.

We just don't want to fund ice.

You're ready to have. You're ready to have 30 done. It's very done. So there's no reason not to do this. Right.

And I saw that and went, wow, they can't even sell that.

“It's like, well, if you want to do it, vote for it.”

Right. Yeah, what was it? Ford Democrats crossed. I don't know if that was one of them. I don't believe it was one who who crossed.

It's the same thing which was going on in the Senate yesterday about sanctuary cities. You're not going to win that argument. No. And they believe they can win the argument. Yeah.

They still, they still believe that they can win the argument. Then the argument about illegal immigrant criminals. I saw Schumer yesterday. This isn't about voter ID. It's about verification.

That they didn't even make sense. Of course. It's about verification. Right. It's just like I said, well, what?

It's not just about voter ID. It's about verification. Well, what does voter ID do? It verifies who you are. Yeah.

So we're all for voter ID. We're not for verification, though. So what we're for is voter ID that isn't. Can't be verified as being legitimate. You can't win that argument.

Well, no. I'm waiting for them to say something. You know, because humans can't be illegal. A human can't be illegal. A human can't be verified.

Actually, they can. It's a whole point. There's no attempted to win it. But the sanctuary city. Let me play this audio.

This is this one of the Democrat. This guy's just a weasel. But I don't have his name here at the moment on this audio cut. But he was one of the Democrats witnessed yesterday. This is Lindsey Graham talking about the demands that I use a judicial

warns when when Obama did not. Here we go.

“Were there people deported inside the United States?”

Well, I mean, it's think it's a little bit unfair to compare. I mean, it's a way to avoid it. It's a way to avoid it. It's a way to avoid it. It's a way to avoid it.

It's a way to avoid it. It's a way to avoid it. It's a way to avoid it. It's a way to avoid it. It's a way to avoid it.

It's a way to avoid it. It's a way to avoid it. It's a way to avoid it. It's a way to avoid it. It's a way to avoid it.

It's a way to avoid it. It's a way to avoid it. It's a way to avoid it. It's a way to avoid it. It's a way to avoid it.

It's a way to avoid it. It's a way to avoid it. It's a way to avoid it. Perfect. But you know, that's the thing.

And I will say this. I'm very happy because this sounded familiar yesterday. This is Speaker Johnson talking about sanctuary cities because that was the, and they should continue to attack on this. But here's Speaker Johnson yesterday.

The answer is simple because Democrats have made the conscious political decision.

Crazy as it is, by word and by deed, to protect criminal illegal aliens over hard working American citizens. That's it. Democrats have dragged the American people through multiple shutdowns now.

“First to protect, remember, last time in the longest shot in history, last fall.”

Their argument was they wanted to protect healthcare benefits for illegal aliens.

illegal aliens in our country.

“And you should be talking about that over and over.”

I don't hear it enough. Don't say sanctuary cities. Yeah. Unless you wish to define it. Sanctuary cities is a Democrats plan to allow criminal illegal immigrants.

A illegal immigrants that have committed other crimes. It's to hide them from the fed. So criminals will roam the streets. So it shows they are attempting. They care more about criminal illegal immigrants than they do citizens of the United States.

Repeat that a billion times.

Not hard. Not hard. Can't lose that argument. And again, you do you win on these issues. The polls show it where you lose is on the messaging.

And that's on you. It's on every front. I want this president to have his party in control of the House and Senate for the rest of this term. Well, but there has to be a monumental effort to make that happen. Well, I would view it differently based.

The fact that I'm older than you for me to be the rest of my life. Why did you hear something? I'm hoping it's going to be much longer than this. I hope to in good health and with my full cognitive abilities, celebrate the birthday. My father's going to be celebrating in early April.

Yeah, exactly. Well, yes.

We would love it to go beyond this, but let's focus on this November first.

Okay. All right. No, I have not heard anything. Well, exactly. Well, hold on a second.

Oh, I do have to get blood work next week, though, for my normal six month checkup. Right. Yeah. I know a guy you can buy blood from. Let me know.

What about urine? Yeah. Oh, please.

“I don't even think you have to pay for it anymore.”

I mean, I don't think my doctor scans for drugs.

It's like right. Hey, I'm scanning for drugs and alcohol this time. Can we delay that appointment for another six months? No, you know what, one time. And so I can shave my head completely.

One time I went into the ER. And I'm editing photos. I've found out hours later. This goes back several years, but they did a, they do a talk screen. And I was offended by that.

I was like, hey, so I'm not on drugs. I'm going to clearly came back negative. But it was like, hey, stop that. And they have to do that. They have to do that.

They need to know what to train it. That's great. If you're not going to be honest with me. I told him, I'm a member of Harold Smith. I quit a long time ago.

We're right. I great deal. This morning's USDA Farm Report is brought to you by house products. Tested, trusted guarantee since 1920. A very warm start to be a logical spring and much of the country switched by the weekend.

So that we could easily see temperatures below 20 degrees. Across much of the northern tier of the United States. And then even colder weather for early next week. Don't be surprised. If you see some temperatures near zero or even slightly below zero degrees Fahrenheit.

Across the northern plains and upper Midwest by early next week. USDA neurologist Brad Ripy says cold air, fueling the act of weather patterns of this past week. Continue to push eastward and southward early next week. We expect to see some of that cold unlocked and unleashed a little bit further south.

“I think by the time we get to next Monday morning and maybe a little bit beyond that,”

we could easily see freezes into western and northern Texas. Also extending into the mid south. The sharp temperature change in the deep south raises concerns of potential freeze damage to some regional crops. I'm Rod Bay in reporting for the U.S. Department of Agriculture in Washington, D.C. This report brought to you by Senax fuels and loops.

He winds up in for your calls. 866-90-red eye on Red Eye Radio. We are when I radio. He is Sir Crony and I'm during Mac. And we are coming on the bottom of the hour. Some of the audio from the Senate, yesterday, the Senate hearing on Sanctuary cities.

And the Democrat, some of the witnesses we've played already were just horrible. But some of the Republican witnesses were great. You know, the Fairfax County Sheriff. In Virginia, talked about that, excuse me, that the Fairfax County Virginia Sheriff declined to honor 744 detainers for criminals that they already had in custody. Yeah, right.

And it's just like, you know, and some of them are gang members, child predators, sex offenders. Understand, we've been saying this for years.

I mean, this is like, thanks everybody for finally getting a board on this.

Yeah, I'm impotent for you. They wish to protect criminal illegal immigrants over citizens of the United States while fighting citizens.

“The Democratic Party is the only way to protect citizens of the United States.”

The Democratic Party is the only way to protect citizens in the United States. The Democratic Party is the only way to protect citizens in the United States. And it's just like that. The Democratic Party is the only way to protect citizens in the United States. The Democratic Party is the only way to protect citizens in the United States.

But what do I want to do? You don't want to be a police officer. Mr. Beitrag Laptor Bücher Software Handy Internet. And so, Master, I'm really sorry.

I'm sorry. You can't say that.

Yeah, you're right. But you don't say anything. No, it's not. You're right. You're right. You're right. You're right.

And when you're done, you're right. That's right. What's right? The Denguez Rook. Yet it's cost no doubt for being.

You can listen when you choose. All right.

“The Senate hearing on sanctuary city yesterday.”

Yeah.

First, let's start with the good.

And then we'll get to the confusing. This is former acting Department of Homeland Security Secretary Chad Wolfe. On the consequences of sanctuary city policies in the United States and in California. Here we go. All right.

The sanctuary policies are unleashing devastating consequences for the American people, particularly those that live in those jurisdictions. In California, again, the birthplace of the sanctuary movement. Local politicians released 4,641 criminal aliens from local jails in 2025. Rather than handing them over to ICE for removal. Those criminals included aliens that had committed homicide, assault, sexual predatory offenses, and burglary.

And just weeks ago, as the chairman indicated in Fairfax County, just miles from where we are today. A criminal illegal alien with more than 30 arrests. Fadily stabbed a woman in the neck. And that county Fairfax County has been a sanctuary for almost a decade. And this is the tragic result.

That's one. Here's Jessica Vaughn, another director of immigration for the federal government talking about. Fairfax County in Virginia. Here we go. The individual jails that released the most were Santa Clara County, California, Cook County, Illinois, and Fairfax County, Virginia.

In 2024 alone, the Fairfax County Sheriff declined to honor 744 detainers for criminals that she had in custody. That's more than two a day. Some of these are gang members with long rap sheets who get arrested over and over, costing county taxpayers untold sums in repeated crimes, prosecution, and incarceration. Others are child predators and sex offenders. Oregon is another place that protects criminal aliens with strict sanctuary policies.

Last fall, ICE actually had to issue subpoenas just to try to get four Oregon sheriffs to share information on violent felons who had been released. And we released despite ICE detainers. They had convictions for rape, assault, child exploitation, and kidnapping among other crimes.

“What possible reason can there be for not cooperating with ICE for their removal?”

It's certainly not a public safety reason. I mean, it's crazy.

Exactly what sanctuary cities are because Democrats don't want you to know that.

So why are they doing it? Why do Democrats wish to protect criminal illegal immigrants as my Johnson said? That's what they're doing right now. Yep. The long lines of the airport that you have is because they wish to protect criminal illegal immigrants.

And the reason that Homeland Security is being defunded during a time when we are at war and as everybody agrees, Iran put out the message for sleep or sells to activate around the world. And the Democrats are saying we don't want to fund Homeland Security. Right. Yeah.

I don't know what else to say except they don't give a damn about Americans. You and I go back all the way to COVID. Remember, Americans, you can't do this. You better during Thanksgiving and Christmas, we better not damn see a bunch of cars in front of a house. Otherwise a police are going to come in and bust you.

“Remember that as the Southern border was open and they didn't even screen them for COVID.”

Well, they sent SWAT after Tom Brady for jogging in the park. Remember that? Oh my gosh.

The one I'll always remember.

And it was in, I think it was in Dallas County where you couldn't have more than four people together outside. For example, if there were kids playing. Throwing the footballer, hitting a baseball, they could only be four of them. Outside.

Remember what work for me because I don't allow any kids in my yard. Remember when the Karen's and the lances were all masked up jogging. And if you jog by them and you weren't wearing a mask, they threw a fit. I remember the very beginning, how dare you wear a mask? Those need to be saved for medical professionals.

You're using up all the mask supplies. And ten minutes later, how dare you not wear a mask? All right, the guy that I mentioned earlier is the head of immigration studies for the Kato Institute. The guy is very, you know, smug and sarcastic. And Senator Marano actually calls some smuggles.

We know that your stick means smug. But he asked him a very simple question. And he can't answer the question. And this again, we'll tear this apart to show you that they don't have a point. Or they're afraid to tell you what they truly believe.

Yeah, here we go.

“And I think it would be the last person who he asked this question to.”

Here we go. Do you think that we made a mistake passing that law that prohibits people from entering this country illegally? No, I don't think so. Sheriff, we believe we made a mistake passing that law. No, I don't think so.

Is it on? No. It was a mistake to not let them come legally. That's what we need. But that's not what the law said.

The law said you can't enter the country illegally. It was that we're talking about that. We're talking about that. It was that, man. Art States.

Don't, don't be cute. Was that part of the law, mistake? Yes or no? That's part of the law that says you can't come legally. Yes.

That was that was mistake.

“That was a mistake that you can't come illegally.”

No, legally. Legal is what I said. Okay. So you have an answer to my question. But that's okay.

You're a smug guy and that's part of your shit. Do you think he did answer the question? Yeah. In an in an offhand way, in a he answered the question. He wants open borders.

Yes. Because we already have a law that allows people a legal process to get into the United States. And he exists already. And so what he's saying is the law should be anybody who crosses a border should be able to stay.

That's their new take, by the way. On the whole legal thing. Oh, we want that there should be a law that allows them to come here legally. There already is. There is.

You know, for somebody who's I looked him up and looked him up and it said he's an expert on immigration studies. How expert is he if he doesn't know that there's already a law that where you there's a legal process to come into the country. Right. Because. That's not what he's talking about.

He's talking about the fact that he believes we should have open borders and everybody should be able to come in.

What that that it should all be basically.

It should all be illegal. Right. There shouldn't be laws. If there are no laws. Then everyone that you're not breaking a law by coming here.

What the hell happened at the Kato Institute? I don't know.

My god.

I mean, you can't you can't sell what he's what he's attempting to sell.

And then I have one more here here we go. All right. Because this is one. Let's now the Democrats. New one is let's play stupid.

Yeah. You had that with, you know, with Governor Newsom. I don't even know. I don't even know how to find my birth certificate. Only babies have birth certificate.

I'm not a baby. Yeah. And we had to. And we tried to help them out. Because he was born in San Francisco.

“So you should go straight to the records department in San Francisco or the county.”

Because that's where you'll find your birth certificate.

Apparently Democrats now. I understand why they believe that that, you know, a voter ID is bad. Because they don't believe they have the capability or the intelligence to know how to find a birth certificate. Right. And then Bernie Sanders said the same thing.

I don't even know how to find my birth certificate. And we suggested Moscow. I call Putin he probably has a couple of copies. You left it there in your honeymoon. That's right.

But the thing is now to play stupid. Oh, the Democratic Party. We're a bunch of stupid people who don't know how to do basic tasks that anybody can figure out. Yeah. But here is the former senior policy advisor at the Biden Harris White House National Economic Council.

Here we go about entering the country illegally. Here we go.

Do you think it should be a crime to enter the country illegally?

I don't know anything about this. I'm here to talk about this. You don't have to look, I'm not lawyer enough to be a lawyer as simple questions. Should it be a crime? I'll say it slowly.

“Should it be a crime to enter the United States of America?”

By the way, good, let me say it slowly. Hey, Democrats, you're convincing Republicans. You are stupid. Should I enunciate it for you? Yeah.

All right, let's continue. I'm going to enter the United States of America illegally. With the help of permission. Do you have a home? I right.

Do you have a place that you sleep in? Yes, correct. Okay. Should it be a crime for people to enter your home without permission? Yes.

You're pretty certain on that one. Okay, but you're not sure it's okay to enter America without permission. Which is our home, by the way. You don't know about America. Okay, gotcha.

All right. This is the same thing about a woman, the border. No, it pretty much is everything. But can't tell you what? Please, stupid.

Yep. And for the radical rank and file out there, you're going to be furious. Why aren't they owning it? Why aren't they just saying we want open borders?

Why aren't they shouting it? Why aren't they standing up in front of lawmakers? Shouting, we want open borders. Well, you know, and this is a thing where we have said now that the racism of the democratic party

where they believe, because this is what black conservative say, you believe we're stupid. This is racist. You're saying that we don't have the ability. We don't have the ability to get an ID.

“Remember the woman on the black woman on the panel?”

Right. The white kid was saying, well, you know, many minorities just don't say that. We know how to get an ID. Right.

Don't insult us. Right. Don't throw out that racist crap. Well, in order to get through that, to get around that charge now,

Democrats are saying, look, we can't just say that minorities are too stupid to understand how to get a voter ID or a birth certificate. The only way we can win this is to say we're all idiots. That idiots see in the democratic party

is part of our diversity. That's right. We're all idiots. We are the idiot party who do not know how to do basic tasks that everybody else was not a Democrat knows how to do.

Right. It's the place stupid.

if that was my opinion,

“instead of projecting what their opinion is,”

if that was my opinion,

and I said that every day,

I'd probably get fired. Yeah. Wouldn't go very well. Yeah. Nobody would say to get this idiot off the air.

Yeah. They wouldn't go well. But Democrats can say anything. They believe they can project themselves as being complete idiots, as not understanding the question of being for open borders,

of sympathizing with terrorists, of prioritizing criminal illegal immigrants over law-biting citizens of the United States.

And there's no cost in them.

“No, we've got a bunch of people that are just idiots.”

And we're idiots, too. Yeah. We used to just believe they're idiots, but now we've got to tell you we're idiots, too. We're the party of idiots.

Is there a course that they'd give to listen? Here's how you place stupid, because they all seem to be checking it. I know. Mastering that class.

That's it. It's, I mean, they're all really good at playing stupid. It really is getting hard to tell if they really are stupid or playing stupid. Yeah. Maybe Gavin Newsom and Bernie Sanders don't.

Oh, by the way, Bernie Sanders was up next the other day. You know, posting about his billionaires tax and everything. Yes. Yeah.

“Said, hey, Bernie, somebody, I think it was David Harsani wrote.”

He used to be with the Denver paper, but I forgot where he is now. Washington Examiner. I think so.

But he goes, hey, give me your third house.

Exactly. We are Red Eye Radio. We'll be right back with more Red Eye Radio. With every currently, and Gary McNamara. Now, we know that the Democrats aren't stupid.

All right. They're, they're playing stupid. And they realize they got, they're, they're, they're going to get burned by accusing minorities of being stupid, so they said, well, we're all stupid. And we don't know how to get our birth certificate.

But they're saying that because there's no other out because the reason they're doing that is they want fraud and elections. That's why. That's why. So they realize we've run out of, we can't continue to sit there and say minorities are stupid. And don't have the capability to get basic ID.

Now that they're getting pushed back from conservative minorities. All right. So they simply said, well, we're all stupid. That's how it's happening. Everybody's stupid, right?
