A new policy that the libs consistently push for will, I guarantee you, backfire fantastically. Also, don't. Don Lemon joins Jimmy Kimmel to discuss his brutal arrest. According to him, even though nobody believes it, ma', am, Danny is letting New York City go to poo poo, especially in the midst of natural storms and weather patterns. And which direction do you think crime statistics went when President Trump took over the policing there in Washington, D.C. the stats will shock you. My name is Joe Bob. Thanks so much for tuning in. The show starts right, right now. There's a thing that libs push for constantly and have been pushing for constantly for the better part of over a decade. And generally when they get their wish, it usually turns out that. Oh, hold on, pump the brakes. We actually don't like this. That is happening yet again. Revolving ice and what's going on in Minnesota. We'll get to that in just a second. But not before we talk about Don Lemon and his really fun and interesting interview with Jimmy Kimmel last night. But before any of that, I got to remind you, TPTP USA.com is the email address if you'd like to send along your thoughts, comments, concerns, even criticisms. Yes, we welcome criticisms@tptpsa.com or leave that comment wherever it is that you happen to be watching this on the Internet, social media, whatever, whatever platform you choose to take this in on, leave a comment or send us an email. TPT@tpusa.com I also got to remind you of what is going on on Sunday. You know what? I've decided the difference between the two halftime shows is one, you know, an overrated, egotistical, America hating singer and then the other one, the turning point halftime show, will be in English. So that those are the, those are the main differences there. Graphic two, if we can pull up that graphic here. The all American halftime show, Kid Rock. I'm, that's what I'm excited. I'm excited for everybody who's going to be there. And I think, I think, I don't know if I'm releasing too much insider information. There's gonna be a little bit more than just this flyer. It's just probably that's all I'll Say, but Kid Rock is who. I'm very excited about. All American halftime show this Sunday. Don't miss it again. Remember, it will be the only halftime show in English, so make sure you check it out. Daily Wire plus rap. Real America's voice. Pretty much anywhere. Anywhere you flip on the channel, Any channel that isn't. You know, the. The other non English halftime show is. That's where you're going to find the Turning Point halftime show. So there's that. Let's get into one. Don Lemon. I've been making the case now on this show for the last several days. I am ecstatic that a bunch of the libs now looking at this purely as a cynical political issue. The libs haven't changed their ideas. Now, what they could do is moderate how they look at things. They could realize, hey, none of this stuff is working. The people don't like it. It's not effective, and we're losing time and time again to a guy that we keep calling really, really mean things. None of this is working. They could do that, but instead, they've decided to double down on their bad ideas and push. Push it with the dumbest people on the face of the earth. Uh, we talked about the Grammys a lot yesterday. Talked about Don Lemon yesterday. And to my delight, Don Lemon is out there making the rounds, reminding the rest of the world that he is, in fact, an idiot. Here he is with Jimmy Kimmel last night talking about the actual protest. That protest. The. The crime that he allegedly committed and why he got arrested for it. This is cut six. Now, first I want to ask you, is there a difference between whether those protesters had the right to go into a church and whether a credentialed journalist like yourself had the right to go in and cover them going into the church?
- [04:22]
Interviewee / Guest (Possibly a Journalist or Commentator)
Well, listen, obviously I'm in the middle of this. I can't say a lot. There's a lot that I cannot say. But what I will say is that I'm not a protester. I. I went there to do. To be a journalist. I went there to chronicle and document and record what was happening. I was following that one group around, and so that's what I did. I reported on them. And so. But I do think that there is a difference between a protester and a journalist.
- [04:42]
Conservative Political Commentator
I'm surprised that the audience didn't have a applause. Laughter break when Jimmy Kimmel called Don Lemon a journalist, a credentialed journalist such as yourself, several things that Don Lemon got wrong there. One, he said, oh, I've been following Them around. He admitted in the video we just landed, we just found this group that now we're involved with this crime that they're about to commit. On top of that, Jimmy Kimmel, interestingly enough, actually probably has a decent understanding of what the difference is. The difference between him and us is we recognize and we realize, no, Don Lemon looks to be entirely complicit in what is going on.
- [05:23]
Interviewee / Guest (Possibly a Journalist or Commentator)
He.
- [05:23]
Conservative Political Commentator
He admitted as much on camera. We don't need to replay that. But we played all of those clips last week where he said, we're going to go in here, we're going to do this, and let's just remove all of the understanding that he was in on it. And at the very least, let's just. Let's give him the benefit of the doubt here and say, okay, he was just a journalist, okay? But he admitted himself. He knew what they were about to do. He should have known what they were about to do with was a crime. And so even if we believe him that he was not participating in the insurrection of the church, he was just there covering it. Okay, well, you knew about it. You didn't tell anybody. It's kind of a crime in and of itself. Graphic one is a, I believe, an AI image, but very indicative of how Don Lemon is looking at this situation. Hey, I'm robbing this bank. I know I'm holding you at gunpoint with a mask, but I do have a camera, and I'm streaming to YouTube that therefore everything I do is legal because I am a quote, unquote, journalist. The problem with the left is they lie so constantly and so easily. By the way, this just comes out naturally for. For guys like Don Lemon and, you know, libs who are willing to lie as readily as they are. But what. What is interesting about this is kind of the furtherance of what that interview showed. Don Lemon talked about. Well, one, his arrest. We'll get to that in just a second. But he did mention this, and he wanted to get this clear. Let me just play the clip, and then I'll tell you. I don't believe what he says. This is cut 7 in that same interview.
- [06:57]
Interviewee / Guest (Possibly a Journalist or Commentator)
Here's the interesting thing, though, is that my. After that, I retained an attorney, and the attorney reached out to them and said, basically, I understand that you have an interest because your folks have been talking about it, and so if you are serious about this, then let's do it the right way. He's perfectly willing to self report, which means turn yourself in, and so we don't have to go through this whole rigmarole and never heard back from them.
- [07:19]
Conservative Political Commentator
So the problem when nobody believes anything you say is that, well, nobody believes anything you say. I do not for a second believe that his attorney actually reached out to the appropriate people. What I do believe is that maybe his attorney sent, I don't know, an Instagram message to the DOJ's Instagram page, said, hey, I'll turn himself. They never saw it. Like, it's. Yeah, I don't think any of that happened whatsoever. Mostly because I don't believe anything Don Lemon says whatsoever. But then his story gets even more ridiculous. This. If I said, I will take things that didn't happen for a thousand. Alex.

Interviewee / Guest (Possibly a Journalist or Commentator)
Walking up to the room, and I pressed the elevator button. And these. Then all of a sudden, I feel myself being jostled and people trying to grab me and put me in handcuffs. And I said, what are you doing here? And they said, we came to arrest you. And I said, who are you? And then finally, they, like, identified themselves. And I said, if you are who you are, then where's the warrant? And they didn't have a warrant, so they had to wait for the. Someone from outside, an FBI guy, to come in to show me a warrant on a cell phone. And by that time, I. I was, like, trying to, you know, figure out what was going on to get my bearings and drop. They dropped all my stuff. My glasses had fallen on the floor. I'm like, I can't read that. So they had to pick my glasses up, and I read it, and still. What does that mean? You know, so. And then they. It was a bunch of guys, and they took me outside. FBI guys were out there. I mean, it was a host. It had to be maybe a dozen people.

Now, Don Lemon went on further after this to say that, well, the main problem here was the inefficient use of resources. Okay, dude, now you're gonna be a stickler on government efficiency. Uh, but first of all, I, I. I just don't believe any of that happened. You're telling me that Don Lemon was just minding his own business, gonna go click his elevator up to the. Wherever it is that he lives, and then just gets jolted from behind, you know, because that's how, you know, officers arrest people that aren't causing any sort of physical problem. If he was actually jolted, I'd be curious to hear the officer side of the story. Did he make an attempt to run. Like, why would he have been jolted? Because that doesn't happen. Officers don't just come up and just grab you and say, we're arresting you. They say, hey, are you so and so. Also, though, they didn't have a warrant. Yeah, okay. He did say, well, there it was somebody else. The guy who had the warrant on his phone was probably three feet behind him. Like, oh, yeah, no, it's right here. Well, yeah, you don't have a warrant. Yeah, it's this guy. This guy over here has it. I don't believe any of this story whatsoever. Partly because I don't believe anything Don Lemon ever says, but most part because it's just implausible. There's no way that this is the. This is the way that all of these events transpired. It's just not plausible. I don't believe it. Even this was coming from a more trustworthy person, which. Not sure how many of those there are on the left. I still wouldn't believe it. It's a ridiculous story in the first place. You know what I think we need is body cam footage, because then we'd get a clear understanding of what probably happened, which is the point that hinted to at the beginning. Libs love this sort of stuff. After Michael Brown, the hands up, don't shoot that we played a couple weeks ago, that Eric Holder, the then attorney general, said, by the way, that that didn't happen. I know there were protests in the streets, riots, cars burning, businesses burning down, because, you know, he was just a guy. He's just, hands up, don't shoot. And then Eric Holder said, ag, I know you protested, but that it didn't happen. After all of that, Libs went nuts and demanded that police officers wear body cam footage. Now, as a conservative, right. Kind of skeptical to really any change, that's a big change in the way that law enforcement is practiced. And regardless of where you are now, at the time, I think a lot of us were like, I'm skeptical about the change, Right? Just any change in general makes you a little bit on edge. Makes you a little bit skeptical. Having said that, years after it's been implemented, all. Turns out the overwhelming majority of the times the police are the right. Anytime you see body cam footage, you start to realize, oh, this is what they have to deal with. It turns out that a decade after the body cam footage demand by the Libs was implemented, it kind of vindicated a lot of the law enforcement that were accused of horrible things. Oh, they. I can't believe they shot this unarmed mother of whatever. Then the body cam footage shows. No, she was lunging at them with a knife. Oh no, they, they, they did this. This was a very. Too aggressive. Well, no, the person was fighting back. And it's safer for the officers and everybody involved to pile onto that person. The bottom line here is that libs really, really, really, really, really wanted body cam on every single officer. They got it. And it didn't prove what they thought. Their hypothesis was that no officer, police officers just out of control and therefore they must be stopped. It actually proved the opposite. No, criminals are way crazier than even we thought. And in the overwhelming majority of cases in which there's body cam footage, it all proves that. So anyways, fast forward to now. Libs are now crying again. Well, they, there needs to be a change and therefore the change needs to have body cam footage on ice. Agents thinking that they're going to get some sort of pushback. But considering we know the statistics and what has happened over the last decades when body cam footage has been implemented, DHS Secretary Christy Dove said, okay, no, we, we need to have body cam footage on every single ICE officer expecting some sort of political pushback. And then we go, fine, fine by me. Now obviously we've all seen this coming because libs, I don't know, they're just trying to make up something to be mad about and like, this is the next hill that they're willing to die on. Chrissy, no, didn't give them that. That's fine with me. But preemptively, libs have already started getting mad. Now this is kind of like a, an interesting timeline because there's the body cam footage, then there's the fallout from the body cam footage, and now they're trying body cam footage again, um, but retroactively. Well, not even retroactively prior to any of this body cam footage on ice, just last week there was a lib on Democracy now saying that body cam footage, now that we know that it reveals some things that we don't like, is calling it a propaganda tool. I kid you not. This is actually happening. Uh, this is cut. What is this? Cut nine. A lib, I believe, on Democracy now talking about why body cam footage is just the worst thing in the world, even though a couple years ago it was the libs that tried to push this on all of us. Cut nine.

In the wake of Michael Brown, we'll market it to low information people in the public, to well meaning liberal people. We'll market it as accountability and transparency. And so they totally shifted. And then they were able to get hundreds of millions of dollars toward their goal of outfitting every single cop in the United States with a mobile surveillance camera that the police control. They control when it's on, when it's off, what it captures. When something is captured, it's released to the public. So if the police capture, let's say, an undocumented immigrant committing some crime, that's out on Fox News in the New York Post within hours. But if they capture the police doing something horrific, the public may never see that video. So body cameras are a mirage. And as I write in the Copaganda book, and this is, it's really critical to understand exactly how it happens. Not only do they not reduce police violence, but they have been an essential propaganda tool in convincing so many well meaning people across our society that the authorities care about police violence, that they want accountability, that they're doing something right. And it distracts people from the core important kinds of changes that we need, which is to reduce the size and power of these bureaucracies.
- [15:39]
Conservative Political Commentator
Yeah. So he finishes it up there saying, no, no, no, our real objective is just to get rid of the police entirely, reduce the size of the bureaucracy. We need to just get rid of the cops entirely. But isn't that a fascinating way to spin that? Hey, look, we. I know we wanted body cam footage not even that many years ago. I recognize that was a thing that we pushed. But what we've realized is that, well, the criminals being arrested are in fact as bad as the police say. They're in many cases much, much worse than that. So how can we spin this? Honestly, I got to give him credit. That's a pretty interesting way of spinning it. Okay, here's what we're going to say. It's actually propaganda to convince people that criminals are as bad as people think criminals are. I mean, that's kind of. I mean, I wouldn't use the term propaganda. I would say getting the truth out there, that's kind of true, that is kind of accurate. We kind of are taking the footage that police officers get from arrests that unfortunately turn violent and we go, hey, look, this is what they have to deal with. I support them 10 times more now. It's a really interesting tool. I think what he was trying to do is say something that is accurate, but throw one of the lib, you know, buzzwords in there by, it's actually propaganda. I mean, actually what it is, it's displaying what is actually happening in real time and showing how difficult it is to be a law enforcement officer in this country, but really anywhere. And the split decisions you have to make and how your life is on the line and you need to act quickly and holy cow, this is a crazy scenario. Yeah, we are actually showing that to everybody to make the point of criminals are bad. But ultimately at the end, you kind of see what he is actually for, which is getting rid of the police, enforce police and law enforcement entirely. He didn't actually say that. But decreasing the size of bureaucracy is I think his main goal here. You know, we can't get to some of this stuff. Maybe we'll get to it in the next segment. But it turns out, and we've known this, but the New York Post brought the receipts. ICE is actually funded. Sorry, not ice.
- [17:52]
Progressive Commentator / Critic
Wow.
- [17:52]
Conservative Political Commentator
The anti ICE grassroots movements are actually funded by a boss bunch of wealthy billionaires. Even outside of the United States. Are they trying to sow discord into the United States society, in our civil society and the way we operate? Spoiler alert. Yes, we'll get to that, ma'.

Danny is facing some backlash and trying to keep the streets of New York clean and keep people alive, which not exactly doing the best job at. What else is there? Oh, the D.C. crime statistics. I. Which, which direction do you think they went when Trump took over and said, hey, National Guard is going to be in charge of the seat of the federal government, that is the District of Columbia, Washington, D.C. do you think statistics went. Went up or down? Broadly speaking, we'll discuss that. The Clintons are going to testify. Holy cow. There's a ton to get to. I should stop teasing things and just go to break. We'll be right back after the break. Don't go away.

Protester / Interviewee
Are you kidding me? He's taking away all of our rights. Freedom of speech, freedom to protest. He's disappearing people off the streets in America.

Is he gonna come. You guys are protesting right now. Is he gonna come sweep this up?

Conservative Political Commentator
You think he could?
- [19:12]
Interviewer / Street Interviewer
It looks like you have the freedom to protest right now, today.

Well, for right now, I do. Knock on wood.

This was a fascist dictatorship. Do you think this could happen?
- [19:21]
Protester / Interviewee
Have you seen the news headlines about people disappearing off the streets, being kidnapped.
- [19:26]

Being arrested by ice?

Protester / Interviewee
No, kidnapped. Arrest is when you have due process. They're kidnapped.
- [19:32]
Interviewer / Street Interviewer
People who came to this country illegally have a different level of due process than American citizens do. So like Obama, for instance, arrested 3 million people with ICE and deported them, right?

- [19:57]
Protester / Interviewee
No, no. I took a day off work so that I could do this.
- [20:02]
Conservative Political Commentator
I. I have so many questions. One. I mean, let's just go with the last part. You took a day off so you could go hold a sign and wear a ridiculous Shrek hat? I can't even imagine, like, asking my wife, hey, babe, I know I only have a limited amount of time off, but rather than spend it with our family and go do something fun with the kids, I'm gonna go hold a sign while wearing a ridiculous green hat. She'd be like, what? What are you talking about? On top of the. Yeah, the good point. Yeah. You know, fascist, dictator, doesn't let anybody protest. What are you guys doing now? Well, we're protesting. This reminds me of the spongebob clip that we played last week. He's. He's burning our businesses. He's tearing everything down. And he's a fascist that everyone's like, he is. And he's like, no, but are we gonna let him.
- [21:00]
Progressive Commentator / Critic
Are we.
- [21:01]
Conservative Political Commentator
Are we gonna sit around and do nothing until he does? Like, all right, calm down. Speaking of people not calming down, I think this is actually pretty interesting. I'm gonna try to skim through this really fast because I want to get to some of the mam. Danny stuff. The anti ICE protests. According to the New York Post, the organized activism behind the grassroots movement. The Neville Singham Network is a China based former software company funding the People's Forum and Party of Socialism and Liberalism from Shanghai. Let me try to condense this. Basically, there's Chinese organizations giving a ton of money to protesters. And you see these 15,000 people in Minnesota who are protesting. A bunch of them are paid. Alex Sor. Sorry, George Soros. But also, I guess Alex Soros Open Society foundation provided $7.6 million to Indivisible, which is a group that is allegedly setting up a bunch of this sort of stuff. The Arabella Network, which is a D.C. based, gave $2 million to the Sunrise Movement since 2016 and $107,000 to Indivisible, which again, the grass. The people are just coming out of their homes and showing up and protesting ice. Now it's an organized on the ground thing. You've got a Swiss billionaire who's donated $6.5 million also to Indivisible nonprofit that's organizing a bunch of the anti ice stuff. The Ford foundation gave $100,000 to Voices of Florida. Did I get that right? Isn't Voices of Florida. No, that's the Florida voice. Different thing. Bottom line here. Bunch of groups are being funded by foreigners. Foreign. Wasn't that a thing? Last time President Trump was in office, there was a, there's this accusation that foreign entities are getting involved in our elections and trying to upend society. I feel like I might be, it might be skipping my memory here, but there was something about Russia and that was like a big thing when, when President Trump was allegedly doing it. He wasn't, but allegedly he was. And they made a big old fuss about it. And then, oh, look at that. They're. They're doing it themselves here. One more interesting thing to note here is there's this mysterious 50501 group. I don't know if that's 5051 or whatever. I don't, I don't know how you pronounce it, but there's this group online that was founded immediately after Trump's second inauguration. It is claimed responsibility for 11 mass deportation demonstration events this year. And it's allegedly run by Reddit users. Like an anonymous group of people online. That's the stuff that I'm actually concerned about. Like the anonymous things I know would probably be not okay with the First Amendment, which is not a good way to start something off. But I would really, it would be really fascinating to see a social experiment where everything you say and do has to be like, your name and face on it. Like you weren't allowed to run your mouth, issue threats in a lot of cases online under some anonymous pseudonym. Again, not entirely sure that would square with the First Amendment, but I don't know. Really, really interesting to see what anonymous groups can do. And those are the people that actually scare me. Let's get to mam. Danny here because that's. We're late. Because, because I'm always late. Interesting. Fun, fun. There's so many layers to this. And I'd love to discuss that after we talk about what's actually going on. TBT tbc.com if you have any thoughts on this, and I may be looking at this from much more of a practical politics standpoint, but big piece in the New York Post yesterday, ma'.

Danny is failing at his core job, which is keep New York City actually functioning. He's off saying, you know, we're going to do this and we're going to do that and this, this is unfair. And here's how we're Going to make it fair. We're going to steal from the rich and give to the poor. I'm a Robin Hood of sorts, when in actuality the mayor's job is to keep the city going. That's. That's kind of what the job is. The functionality of the city is the mayor's core responsibility. And the current state of New York, according to the New York Post, is, well, it's not functioning. And we're like three weeks into what's going on in New York City. The bottom line here is. Sorry, we got some errant B roll. I think. I didn't. Producer Glenn get the. Correct. There we go. There's the B roll of New York City. Snow piled up, dirty everywhere. There's trash all over the streets. Basically, bottom line, it's not functioning in any way, shape or form. The snow response has been an absolute failure. The ma', am, Danny is not rigid to the occasion. In the frigid temperatures, several people have died. That's not. I don't want to make fun of that, but that's 16 people have died on the streets, 13 from hypothermia. The snow removal has been delayed substantially. Ice removal has been delayed substantially. There's power outages. 1900 Park Slope residents have lost power in New York City. Bottom line here is. And again, we'll get to this through this a little bit quickly. It begs the question, is this a good thing? More broadly speaking, if the socialists. And again, I'm looking at this from a very cynical, practical politics standpoint. If the socialists who get elected in New York City do exactly what socialists do, is it bad for the people in New York City? Yes, 100%, absolutely. I feel for you. I wish that wasn't happening to you. But on a political level, nationwide, is it the worst thing that we together can point to what's going on in New York City? Saying the trash is not being collected, power outages are running rampant. The storms which happen, winter storms, lo and behold, happen. That's a. It's a thing that will occur at some point. And if you can't figure out how to sustain through them, you're going to have a problem. People dying of hypothermia on the street, all of these things. Given the fact that this is exactly what we all said was going to happen in New York City, is it. I don't know. I struggle with this. Is it bad that it is happening? Because we called this. We all said, hey, this is, you know, these sorts of things are going to be problematic. The Functionality of the city is the core responsibility of the mayor. And he's not doing that because his priorities are, I don't know, integration, the inclusion of everybody. And because we said that this is happening. Is it is then effectively a good thing that it's happening. Like I said, I don't want to, I don't want this stuff to be happening in New York City. But maybe as, as it's been mentioned a number of times, you need this sort of thing every 20 years to remind the American people that hey, this whole socialist experiment is a bad idea and we, we shouldn't participate in it anymore. That is what bad governance looks like. That's what a bad leader looks like. What a good leader looks like is. That's as an okay transition. Jarring, but definitely okay. Is President Trump making deals on behalf of the American people? You know, there's a lot of things going on here. This is a really interesting story that's kind of just now coming to light today. Coming to light today because it happened today. Use your worst job. But President Trump strikes a deal with India and checks a lot of boxes that the libs are again going to be big mad about because Orange man bad but in reality good for the American people. Also good for the world overall. President Trump yesterday announced the United States and India reached a trade agreement and that India would stop buying Russian oil. I'm just going to read verbatim President Trump's truth social post post regarding this. He said effective immediately, we agree to a trade deal between the United States and India whereby the United States will charge, or yeah charge a reduced reciprocal tariff, lowering it from 25% to 18%. They will likewise, likewise move forward to reduce their tariffs and non tariff barriers against the United States to zero. So we lowered our terrorists 7% and they're going to lower us to zero. That, that's pretty good. But that's not, that's, that's not where it stops. The Prime Minister has also committed to buy American at a much higher level. In addition to over $500 billion of US energy, technology, agriculture, coal and many other products, reducing their reliance. I'm not quoting here anymore. Reducing their reliance on Russian oil, which not only helps the American people, domestically speaking because they've got investment coming in from other countries. Uh, we've got tariffs going down to zero on our products that go to India, of which I'm not entirely sure how much they are. Uh, but that's good. But also the lib saying, ah, not, not hard enough on Russia. You know what's gonna be hard on Russia when one of their two biggest buyers of energy comes to our side. That's what actual leadership is. That's what the president is doing on behalf of the American people and honestly on behalf of the people around the globe without sending more money to Ukraine. I like the guy's a deal maker. He just is. Coming up next, I want to talk about the, the, the other Trump story. There's a, pretty much every story is a Trump story nowadays because I don't, that's just the way the media works. The media works. But Trump also, I don't know if you heard about this, took over the policing in the Washington District of Columbia, the seat of the federal government. That is not to be more than 10 square miles area the federal government has jurisdiction over. Took it over because he has jurisdiction over it. And these statistics that are coming out will shock you. That coming up. Tptbusa.com if you'd like to send along your thoughts, comments, concerns via email. What do you have thoughts on any of this? Should we continue to promote people like Don Lemon pushing bad ideas? Should we be say, yeah, sure, go ahead, put body cams on everybody, police officers, so that we can prove to you how rabid and crazy a bunch of you lived criminals are. What do you think about Ma' am, Danny, who's funding all of this sort of stuff? Email us about anything that you hear on the show. TPTP USA.com look forward to reading all of those. And again, remember, if your email is gross, disgusting, vile and just downright bigoted in all senses, we could probably read it on the show. That's it's kind of what we do here. Tptp.com we will be right back after the break. Don't go away. Watching this.

Mayor of Los Angeles Karen Bass
I have a particular message to black America that it's interesting that I believe the journalists that were arrested all look like me and you.

Mayor of Los Angeles Karen Bass
And so this is not the first time this has happened. As a matter of fact, the journalist that is with me, Jasmine, was arrested a few years ago.
- [32:04]
Conservative Political Commentator
That is the mayor of Los Angeles, Karad Bass, trying to turn everything into a race war. That's like the, that's, I think when you know, you've won the argument when they default back to race, like when libs default back to race, that is when you know, we've crushed them so hard, rhetorically speaking, on all of our policy points, we've just won that they go, no, well it's racist. That's I don't have Any other good arguments for why the policy shouldn't be what you want it to be? So it's racist. Spoiler alert. Karen. Don Lemon didn't get arrested cuz he was black. He also didn't get arrested cuz he was gay. He got arrested cuz he's an idiot. An idiot who found himself wrapped up in committing a crime. Whether or not that's where those were his intentions, I don't know. That'll be for a court to decide. But as it looks, Don Lemon participated in the insurrection of a church, which is against the face act, which the crime, and that's why he got arrested. That has nothing to do with him being black. Actually, if. If there is a lib journalist, regardless of what color they are, and they decide to participate in the takeover and attack of a church, I would like them arrested too. Let me just say that I don't care what race they are, if they're a live person trying to disrupt the goings on of a church, they should be arrested. Let's see. Speaking of people getting arrested, really interesting, interesting statistics that will shock you, unless of course, you have some, some amount of common sense. Uh, in August of this last year, President Trump took an interest in DC's crime problem. He lives there, bunch of his colleagues live there. He says, hey, there's a crime problem here. Maybe we should look into it. Uh, at the time, you probably remember seeing some of the statistics on how bad crime in D.C. was. I believe this is graphic five. Uh, it was a lot. The 2024 murder rate took, topped a bunch of major cities around the world, specifically, and especially capital cities. D.C. is over there in the red, and it is substantial. In response to those brutal statistics, President Trump federalized the D.C. metro Police for about a month and brought in the National Guard to supplement Metro PD's law enforcement, saying, hey, this is the seat of the federal government. Constitutionally it is in the control of the federal government. I am the administrator of the federal government. So look, here's here. Here we are the federal government taking over federal jurisdiction. Bunch of libs just lost their mind about this, if you remember. Um, but what, what actually happened in dc, how is it, how has it played out? Well, Trump's actions in August were immediately effective, with crime dropping dramatically. Like I said, this will shock you unless you have some amount of, of common sense. August also saw, interestingly enough, and I just wonder if these two things are correlated. An immigration enforcement push in D.C. with Axios reporting that ICE arrests in D.C. remain elevated even after the Summer surge. This is a graphic from Axios showing the spike in ICE arrests in D.C. from January 2 through August 16, 2025. Obviously, the data takes a little bit while to compile and this I guess has a seven day trail of the ICE apprehensions, not necessarily deportations, by the way, I should know. These are apprehensions of people accused of being in the country illegally. Year to date. Comparisons from the Metro PD reveal the continued success of President Trump's initiative to make D.C. safe. And again, I have no, I have no idea whether or not these statistics are correlated, but immigration detainments have elevated and crime has gone down. Homicides in the D.C. area from 2025 to the, whatever the new numbers are, have gone down 73%. Sexual abuse down 57%. Robberies down 57%. Violent crime in total down 38%. Burglary down 45%. Motor vehicle theft down 58%. Theft from autos of autos down 33%. All other theft down 7, 10%. Arson. I don't know about arson. That's, that's a, that's, there's not very, there's not very much arson. You look at this as a percentage and it looks really great, but on reality is like a, the raw numbers, it's, it went down, it's arson is down 100%, but it's down from 2 to 0. So it's not like, it's like it's, you know, this drastic. 1500 cases of arson and now it's down to, I'm not trying to diminish it, but I'm just trying to be realistic about the statistics. I don't want to mislead you folks and think, well, arson is down 100%. Yeah, I went from 2 to 0 as of, as of right now. Property crime in total down 29%. Crime overall in total in the District of Columbia by the newest, most recent numbers, down 30%. Again, I just, I wonder, I have to ask myself the question, do we think that law enforcement on the immigration side detaining people accused of being the country illegal, being elevated has anything to do with the crime dropping or if President Trump focusing on law enforcement in the nation's capital has, has really any bearing on what's going on now? Those are those numbers. You know what, just go to the total crime. This is from 2024 to 2025. And remember, Trump wasn't really participating until like halfway through 2025. All crime in total down 17% overall. Uh, we will highlight that the, the arsons from 2024-20, 25 remained high at 4.0percent chains on arson, everything else pretty much down. So here's, here's, I think what we're gonna get. This should be obvious to everybody. Like, I think I could probably adequately explain it to my two and a half year old. Hey, if somebody is committing a crime, or I can even explain it into her terms. If you cry about not getting a treat, sometimes we give her a graham cracker. Probably a little too much added sugar, but you know, that's, that's our leniency there. If you scream and cry about the graham cracker that you don't have, we don't give you graham cracker and you scream, cry about it, lo and behold, that will have some consequences. Now, if we capitulate and give you the graham cracker, guess what? You'll scream and cry about everything. If we don't. If we emphasize law and order in our household, guess what? One, you're probably going to get more graham crackers overall. And two, uh, we're gonna have much more peace. I don't know if that was a perfect analogy, but it remains true that this is an obvious thing. When you crack down on crime, there's gonna be less crime. Don't know why we have to talk about it like that. Uh, briefly, coming up next, we'll talk about, talk about the Clintons. Bill and Hillary gonna testify at the end of the month to avoid a vote in the House. And I do actually think there's really interesting stuff to talk about there. We'll talk about that right after the break. Tptbusa.com if you'd like to send along your thoughts, comments, concerns in an email form. Also leave a comment wherever it is that you happen to be watching this. We'll be right back after the break. Don't go away.

What are we talking about here? So take a look here. Favor voter ID to vote. Look, I got all this polling on the screen going back since 2018. You'll notice on all of it, it's all north of 75%. 76%, 70. 76%, 76%, 81%. And then 83% in the last year of Americans agree with Nicki Minaj. They favor photo ID to be able to vote.
- [40:13]
Conservative Political Commentator
All right, the craziest part about that, go take a time machine back 15 years and go. Okay, hold on. The CNN anchor is saying something that we all know to be true. The overwhelming majority of Americans think you'd have to, should have to show an ID to vote. But the way that he's contextualizing in that is, see, the majority of Americans agree with Nicki Minaj. Wait, the anaconda singer. What? What? It just, it's just confusing. I don't know. Just another example of like, yeah, dude, we all agree on this. Literally everyone agrees on mo. Not everyone. Most people agree on most things. And yet the libs try to, I don't know, demonize it in a certain way that they can keep their stranglehold on the most radical 10% of them. All right, so here's what I think is interesting about the Clintons. Clintons have agreed to testify in an Epstein investigation in one of the House committees. And what I think is fascinating about this is they were set to go to a contempt vote. Now in the committee headed up by James Comer, we've been talking about this for weeks now. Uh, he said, hey, you guys need to show up. The Clintons have said, nope, we're not going to show up. Their attorney's been interacting. He said, no, you have to show up. He held a vote within the committee to hold the Clintons in contempt. All but three libs on that committee said, yeah, this is, this is in fact contempt. Bill Clinton not showing up. Hillary Clinton had a little bit more leniency with the libs. But of the libs, even the majority of libs voted in the committee to hold them of contempt. Now, if you're held of contempt, we, we have friends here on this network that have been held in contempt and had to serve prison time. So in order to not serve jail time, not serve time, incarcerated, the Clintons have decided to testify. Now, what I think is interesting about this, from purely a political stance, Bill Clinton's no dummy, right? Hillary Clinton is no dummy. The vote was going to go to the full House floor on whether or not they were actually going to be held in contempt. It's gotta get outta committee, kinda like a bill, and then go to the full House floor. The Clintons, by saying, yes, we will testify in order to avoid this vote, are by default then implying that they knew they were not going to win that vote. Whatever calculus is going on in Bill and Hillary's head and in the heads of their attorneys, they looked at the vote coming up to the full House and realized, we're not going to win this. The margins are too slim. If we get all of the conservatives on board, it's going to take. Well, I mean, that, that could be it. But even if they peel off, you know, 30 conservatives, there's, there's 30 libs that would love to see the Clintons being held accountable or at least testifying. And if they don't want to testify, they have to be held in contempt. Libs have been saying nobody is above law. That's the whole thing they've been talking about in which the Clinton should be held. The Clintons are not above the law and should be held accountable if they do in fact, if they are in fact held in contempt. So by agreeing to testify, Bill and Hillary looked at that. The practicality of them winning that contempt vote in the House that we're not going to win, we got to go testify. That is going to be fireworks when it actually happens. Obviously we'll talk about it when it does. But that is supposed to be at the end of the month. I'm not sure of the date yet. Really, really, really interesting stuff unfolding here. Regarding, regarding the, regarding Clinton and the Epstein case. Let me use this opportunity remind you one more time about the Sunday programming of choice. Graphic 2 here has our lineup. Kid Rock, Brantley, Gilbert Lee, Bryce, Gabby Barrett can be super exciting. The difference as I mentioned early on in the show is one is a overrated, narcissistic, America hating singer and the other show will be in English. Big the main difference there. So don't miss it. They all American halftime show this Sunday going to be fantastic. Make sure you flip the channel just a little bit.

Like if we need to abolish ice, you know, I have a plan. All right, this is my plan. I think that if we change, just take all the illegal immigrants and put them in Mexico, we can put ICE out of business. All right, who's with me. Make some noise.

Interviewee / Guest (Possibly a Journalist or Commentator)
Come on.

Conservative Political Commentator
Okay. Hell yeah. Anybody in here? Mexican? Yeah, come over here. That's a good joke. I, I, I agree. I, I would be, I wouldn't say I'd be in support of it. I'd be willing to hear arguments for abolishing ice. If we got all the illegals out, we get the 20 million illegals out. Okay, fine. Let's have a discussion about abolishing ice. I don't think I'd vote for it, but I'd be much more open to hearing and considering the arguments there because all the illegals are gone. Uh, let's get to some of your emails. TPT tpc.com Christie says this. We talked about the Grammys a lot yesterday and this is my fault. Christy Christie, you're right. She said, please give Jelly Roll some credit for his reform and belief in Christ. I did not mention that yesterday. We did have a video queued up, but just didn't have time to get to it. But Jelly Roll, if you're not familiar, big time country singer, he's fantastic musical artist and also probably, although he's never mentioned it, on our side of things. Well, okay. On our side of things. Believer. So that's, there's that. But, you know, politically speaking, kind of one of those people that probably, probably, but, you know, not exactly putting himself out there. Uh, let's see, let's see, let's see. A couple interesting takes on the Groundhog Day. Both Wanda and Sandra, we characterize this here, so we don't get into too long of a conversation about this, but basically saying, I didn't see any sun. How did the, how did the groundhog see his shadow? You know, that's a, that's a good point. And I've also wondered the same thing. I think what they do is they have their own, like the, the, the stage there, I think is for show. We don't actually get to see whether Punxsutawney Phil goes in or out. I think what they do is they, they, when they wake up in the morning, whether he comes out, sees the shadow go back in or comes back out, that's at his actual residence, I think. And then they document that and then they do the whole kind of rigmarole roll. They do the show, they do all the fun things, and then they basically read what happened probably earlier in the day. Now, as to where the sun is and whether or not he could have actually seen a shadow, I don't know. That's a good question. That is up for debate. I Are they playing us? It's a good question. Let's see. You know J from gets it I don't know if I'm even allowed to read your email but know that I saw it and I He basically said he and his partner went and saw the Jay's gay and that g it said him and his partner went and saw Melania. He said they loved it. I'll just read it. He said if President Trump is such a homophobe, why did he let all those gay guys into the penthouse to help the first lady with her wardrobe. His words, not mine. But also fair point and also maybe that's why she looks so fantastic all the time. I don't, I don't know what I'm what I'm saying Jay is thank you for your email. On the topic of yesterday's lawsuit that the California are awards I'm getting too ahead of my the the idiots in California they're suing the hospital trying to force them to provide mutilation surgery to kids. Donna says this so with the lawsuits against the doctors, hospitals and psychiatrists forcing the young woman into gender affirming care have if they're successful will California have to pay for the lawsuit that they're filing against the children's hospital if they force them to continue. So in other words just to put this in the actual context of well a tangible practical situation. If they participate if this hospital participates because they're forced at the hand of the state of California and then that person who unfortunately had to go through that then sues the hospital does the state of California because they forced the hospital to do that then have to pay for the settlement of that lawsuit by way is that going to be transferred to the taxpayer of California? Good question, Donna. I'm not entirely sure how that works but at unfortunately probably will be the case that that happens like that. And that's all the time we're gonna have for today. Make sure on Sunday you flip your TV one way or the other if you're watching the big game at all. I know a lot of people are kind of turned off by the NFL so if you're watching it all flip it one way. Go find the go find the halftime show that you don't need subtitles for and good we will see tomorrow same time, same place. TPT tbsa.com God bless America foreign.
