Allen Jackson NOW | Allen Jackson: January 23, 2025 | Allen Jackson Now | January 23, 2025

Well.
00:00:01.860 --> 00:00:02.561
Good evening, i'm alan jackson.
00:00:02.561 --> 00:00:03.628
Welcome to nashville.
00:00:03.628 --> 00:00:05.397
There's a worldwide migration taking place.
00:00:05.397 --> 00:00:08.733
We see it in asia,
00:00:08.733 --> 00:00:09.868
In europe, in south america, and in our own backyard.
00:00:09.868 --> 00:00:13.472
The united states has been overrun with migrants,
00:00:13.472 --> 00:00:16.274
Many of whom are here illegally,
00:00:16.274 --> 00:00:18.043
Either by slipping over the border or by exploiting it.
00:00:18.043 --> 00:00:20.879
Overwhelmed immigration system.
00:00:20.879 --> 00:00:22.948
Well, change is at hand.
00:00:22.948 --> 00:00:24.516
President trump is already making good
00:00:24.516 --> 00:00:26.318
On his campaign promises and is beginning
00:00:26.318 --> 00:00:28.453
To purge illegals from this country
00:00:28.453 --> 00:00:30.689
With a full scale push on his orders.
00:00:30.689 --> 00:00:33.625
The pentagon is sending 1500 active duty troops to
00:00:33.625 --> 00:00:36.261
The border, adding to the 2500 that are already there.
00:00:36.261 --> 00:00:39.998
Congress quickly approved the lincoln riley act
00:00:39.998 --> 00:00:42.567
That includes rules for homeland security to detain and deport
00:00:42.567 --> 00:00:46.204
Illegal immigrants accused of even minor crimes.
00:00:46.204 --> 00:00:49.274
Lincoln riley was the young
00:00:49.274 --> 00:00:50.442
Nursing school student murdered by an illegal.
00:00:50.442 --> 00:00:53.678
The borders are.
00:00:53.678 --> 00:00:54.746
Tom homan has launched raids in sanctuary cities
00:00:54.746 --> 00:00:57.215
To round up and deport gangs and illegals.
00:00:57.215 --> 00:01:00.452
The wall street journal reports that trump is going to grant
00:01:00.452 --> 00:01:03.288
Additional agencies more power to get involved in deportations,
00:01:03.288 --> 00:01:07.492
Including the drug enforcement administration,
00:01:07.492 --> 00:01:09.494
The bureau of alcohol, tobacco, firearms and explosives,
00:01:09.494 --> 00:01:12.631
Plus the u.s. marshals service.
00:01:12.631 --> 00:01:15.133
The president said he was going to conduct
00:01:15.133 --> 00:01:17.035
The largest deportation action in american history,
00:01:17.035 --> 00:01:20.238
And he's following through on his word.
00:01:20.238 --> 00:01:22.641
Imagine that a president who tells the truth
00:01:22.641 --> 00:01:25.944
And says what he means.
00:01:25.944 --> 00:01:27.679
That's refreshing.
00:01:27.679 --> 00:01:29.447
We're fortunate to have with us this evening the former
00:01:29.447 --> 00:01:31.983
President of the border trade alliance
00:01:31.983 --> 00:01:34.386
And consultant
00:01:34.386 --> 00:01:35.253
To the undersecretary of intelligence
00:01:35.253 --> 00:01:36.821
At the department of homeland security, nelson burrito,
00:01:36.821 --> 00:01:40.859
Thank you for coming on today,
00:01:40.859 --> 00:01:42.060
Especially with all the news about the border issues.
00:01:42.060 --> 00:01:45.063
Great to be with you, as always.
00:01:45.697 --> 00:01:47.432
Thank you for having me.
00:01:47.432 --> 00:01:49.668
Well, i'd like to talk about the safety issues
00:01:49.668 --> 00:01:52.337
And the business issues,
00:01:52.337 --> 00:01:53.505
Since the people you represent have suffered through both
00:01:53.505 --> 00:01:56.541
In just a few days, tom homan has already rounded up
00:01:56.541 --> 00:01:59.010
Hundreds of people who were here illegally.
00:01:59.010 --> 00:02:01.479
Federal authorities did the same in mostly liberal boston,
00:02:01.479 --> 00:02:05.183
But one local rabbi is pushing back.
00:02:05.183 --> 00:02:07.319
He's telling the local tv station that sacred places
00:02:07.319 --> 00:02:10.589
Like his temple are built for people to be safe.
00:02:10.589 --> 00:02:13.491
And ripping families apart is a violation of human dignity.
00:02:13.491 --> 00:02:16.895
Now, of course,
00:02:17.262 --> 00:02:17.829
He didn't say anything
00:02:17.829 --> 00:02:18.630
About the sexual assaults
00:02:18.630 --> 00:02:19.864
And the murders that have taken place.
00:02:19.864 --> 00:02:22.400
What's your opinion on this tension
00:02:22.400 --> 00:02:24.035
That will no doubt build in our nation?
00:02:24.035 --> 00:02:26.571
Well, i'll tell you, i think there's certainly tension
00:02:27.606 --> 00:02:30.508
Throughout the nation now, but but look,
00:02:30.508 --> 00:02:33.245
We got to remember that when trump campaigned
00:02:33.245 --> 00:02:37.048
Over the last movement many months,
00:02:37.048 --> 00:02:39.217
He campaigned on a lot of these issues.
00:02:39.217 --> 00:02:41.586
This is not something where a politician goes into the office
00:02:41.586 --> 00:02:45.056
And then
00:02:45.056 --> 00:02:46.191
Does a switcheroo, changes his tone, changes something.
00:02:46.191 --> 00:02:49.594
This is what people voted for.
00:02:49.594 --> 00:02:51.896
He campaigned on his time and time again
00:02:51.896 --> 00:02:54.933
In the swing states, in every state.
00:02:54.933 --> 00:02:57.402
We knew what was coming.
00:02:57.402 --> 00:02:58.903
This should not be a surprise to anybody.
00:02:58.903 --> 00:03:00.839
He promised what he will do
00:03:00.839 --> 00:03:03.141
From day one, and he's doing it from day one forward.
00:03:03.141 --> 00:03:06.978
We're seeing it right now.
00:03:06.978 --> 00:03:08.346
So, like you said,
00:03:08.346 --> 00:03:09.781
We have a president that has promised
00:03:09.781 --> 00:03:11.750
And he's living out those promises right now.
00:03:11.750 --> 00:03:14.185
And certainly this should become a no surprise to anyone.
00:03:14.185 --> 00:03:18.189
Are people freaked out?
00:03:18.189 --> 00:03:19.391
People? absolutely.
00:03:19.391 --> 00:03:21.559
Well, this is a disrupter.
00:03:21.559 --> 00:03:23.261
We're doing something things different.
00:03:23.261 --> 00:03:25.030
But ultimately, it's to the benefit
00:03:25.030 --> 00:03:26.564
Of the united states of america
00:03:26.564 --> 00:03:28.199
Because things have been out of control for four years.
00:03:28.199 --> 00:03:31.236
And now it's time to bring reigning rogues in.
00:03:31.236 --> 00:03:34.339
Change a lot of things.
00:03:34.339 --> 00:03:35.307
And that's what president trump's doing.
00:03:35.307 --> 00:03:37.542
You know, when the rabbi in boston spoke up,
00:03:38.443 --> 00:03:40.545
I couldn't help remembering wasn't too long ago
00:03:40.545 --> 00:03:42.947
That there were some illegals deposited in martha's vineyard,
00:03:42.947 --> 00:03:46.551
And they certainly weren't welcome there
00:03:46.551 --> 00:03:48.119
For more than just a few hours.
00:03:48.119 --> 00:03:50.055
It seems to me the people have a bit of a sliding scale
00:03:50.055 --> 00:03:54.059
On where they're willing to
00:03:54.059 --> 00:03:54.959
Welcome people in where they're not,
00:03:54.959 --> 00:03:56.494
And does it feel like that to you?
00:03:56.494 --> 00:03:58.897
It absolutely is.
00:03:58.897 --> 00:03:59.898
I'll tell you, pastor allen, you know,
00:03:59.898 --> 00:04:01.199
You see these things throughout all over the united states,
00:04:01.199 --> 00:04:04.402
Whether it's martha's vineyard, whether it's chicago, illinois,
00:04:04.402 --> 00:04:07.872
Including when governor abbott was sending busses to
00:04:07.872 --> 00:04:11.943
To colorado, especially denver, denver,
00:04:11.943 --> 00:04:14.412
He said, they say that it's a sanctuary city.
00:04:14.412 --> 00:04:17.649
Well, guess what
00:04:17.649 --> 00:04:19.017
The the first roundups happened in the last 24, 48 hours.
00:04:19.017 --> 00:04:23.088
Colorado, you know, we're sending a very clear message
00:04:23.088 --> 00:04:26.725
On behalf of this government.
00:04:26.725 --> 00:04:28.426
And certainly my colleagues in the border patrol
00:04:28.426 --> 00:04:30.929
And in other agencies that i work with for years,
00:04:30.929 --> 00:04:33.732
That, you know, the buck stops here.
00:04:33.732 --> 00:04:36.101
You will you will comply because you should comply.
00:04:36.101 --> 00:04:38.803
And again, this is what these people want.
00:04:38.803 --> 00:04:41.272
There's no surprise the people of these communities
00:04:41.272 --> 00:04:44.008
Want to be safe.
00:04:44.008 --> 00:04:45.377
They want to make sure that there's law and order
00:04:45.377 --> 00:04:47.579
And all that trump is doing
00:04:47.579 --> 00:04:49.514
Is doing that, empowering the people
00:04:49.514 --> 00:04:51.483
That should have been empowered from day one
00:04:51.483 --> 00:04:53.752
And have been restrained back for over four years
00:04:53.752 --> 00:04:56.621
And now are finally able to act and do what they're told, what
00:04:56.621 --> 00:05:01.559
We're supposed to do
00:05:01.559 --> 00:05:02.527
From day one and their constitutional duties,
00:05:02.527 --> 00:05:05.096
Which is arrest people
00:05:05.096 --> 00:05:06.297
That have gone outside the law and and bring them to justice.
00:05:06.297 --> 00:05:10.301
And that's exactly what they're doing right now.
00:05:10.301 --> 00:05:12.036
Well, one big arrest caught our eye this week.
00:05:12.971 --> 00:05:15.106
It involved the break in at a cincinnati
00:05:15.106 --> 00:05:16.841
Bengals quarterback's home.
00:05:16.841 --> 00:05:18.710
That's joe burrow.
00:05:18.710 --> 00:05:20.145
He's part of a string of sports
00:05:20.145 --> 00:05:21.479
Figures who have become victims of criminal gangs.
00:05:21.479 --> 00:05:24.816
Four members of a chilean gang
00:05:24.816 --> 00:05:26.918
Looked at the football game schedule,
00:05:26.918 --> 00:05:28.553
So they knew when the players wouldn't be home.
00:05:28.553 --> 00:05:30.955
When the ohio state police pulled these four over.
00:05:30.955 --> 00:05:33.625
They had fake ids, tools to break windows.
00:05:33.625 --> 00:05:36.361
And they said they'd been
00:05:36.361 --> 00:05:37.395
Traveling from new york to ohio to see the snow.
00:05:37.395 --> 00:05:40.732
Well, i don't think they're
00:05:41.332 --> 00:05:42.333
Seeing much snow from behind bars right now,
00:05:42.333 --> 00:05:45.003
But the intentionality
00:05:45.003 --> 00:05:46.137
Of those gangs in preying on americans is shocking.
00:05:46.137 --> 00:05:49.207
I think to many of us.
00:05:49.207 --> 00:05:52.076
It's it's like it's shocking, but we're seeing this.
00:05:52.076 --> 00:05:54.712
These are these are criminal gangs
00:05:54.712 --> 00:05:56.548
That are operating within the united states.
00:05:56.548 --> 00:05:58.349
And, you know, criminal gangs are border agnostic.
00:05:58.349 --> 00:06:01.886
They start all the way from the patagonia
00:06:01.886 --> 00:06:03.488
Where they're all over the world.
00:06:03.488 --> 00:06:04.556
But in this case, they start from the patagonia
00:06:04.556 --> 00:06:06.658
Of south america.
00:06:06.658 --> 00:06:07.659
We're seeing the train.
00:06:07.659 --> 00:06:08.460
They're our gangs from venezuela.
00:06:08.460 --> 00:06:10.929
They recruit all the way
00:06:10.929 --> 00:06:12.363
Through mexico, and then they get here.
00:06:12.363 --> 00:06:14.132
We've seen these issues.
00:06:14.132 --> 00:06:15.333
We've seen the stuff that's actually publicized.
00:06:15.333 --> 00:06:17.735
Now we have a
00:06:17.735 --> 00:06:19.437
We have a football player that was that was victimized.
00:06:19.437 --> 00:06:22.607
We've seen some video, that apartments are being taken
00:06:22.607 --> 00:06:26.377
Over. but but, pastor,
00:06:26.377 --> 00:06:27.812
What about the ones that are not on video?
00:06:27.812 --> 00:06:30.215
What about when you're not famous?
00:06:30.215 --> 00:06:32.484
How many hundreds of other victims are out there
00:06:32.484 --> 00:06:35.453
That are not getting told or not being front row
00:06:35.453 --> 00:06:38.490
On the media and are happening because of these criminal gangs?
00:06:38.490 --> 00:06:41.459
Well, guess guess what?
00:06:41.459 --> 00:06:42.694
Well, as you know, trump said,
00:06:42.694 --> 00:06:44.863
We're going to declare these, these trends, organized
00:06:44.863 --> 00:06:47.732
Criminal acts and gangs, terrorist organizations.
00:06:47.732 --> 00:06:51.636
Mexico doesn't seem to like it.
00:06:51.636 --> 00:06:53.171
Other countries don't seem to like it.
00:06:53.171 --> 00:06:54.739
But that gives us the ability to basically declare war
00:06:54.739 --> 00:06:58.009
On these problems and rid the problem.
00:06:58.009 --> 00:07:00.612
The problem, again, is not just in the united states.
00:07:00.612 --> 00:07:03.448
It's we got to get it from the stem.
00:07:03.448 --> 00:07:05.450
It stems from mexico and beyond.
00:07:05.450 --> 00:07:07.519
And a lot of it has to do with china, with precursors
00:07:07.519 --> 00:07:10.421
And all the other things that they,
00:07:10.421 --> 00:07:11.923
That they give these, these, these particular gangs to do.
00:07:11.923 --> 00:07:16.294
Manufacture in mexico and ultimately deliver
00:07:16.294 --> 00:07:18.930
To our youth
00:07:18.930 --> 00:07:20.031
Here in the united states over 100,000 deaths per year
00:07:20.031 --> 00:07:23.034
With fentanyl crisis. these are disruptors.
00:07:23.034 --> 00:07:25.637
And there's a lot of bad actors.
00:07:25.637 --> 00:07:27.372
And these things
00:07:27.372 --> 00:07:28.606
Will hopefully come to an end, like trump said really quickly.
00:07:28.606 --> 00:07:32.944
Well, progressives are already crying out
00:07:33.778 --> 00:07:35.780
About how some families will be separated
00:07:35.780 --> 00:07:37.782
When the man of the house is deported.
00:07:37.782 --> 00:07:40.051
But as president trump points out,
00:07:40.051 --> 00:07:41.619
The scale of dangerous people has been mounting.
00:07:41.619 --> 00:07:44.689
Take a listen to what he said.
00:07:44.689 --> 00:07:47.125
We have terrorists in our country by the thousands.
00:07:47.125 --> 00:07:50.628
We have murderers in our country
00:07:50.628 --> 00:07:53.164
By the tens of thousands with numbers who came out.
00:07:53.164 --> 00:07:57.001
11,000 people that murdered are now free
00:07:57.001 --> 00:08:00.738
And walking around.
00:08:00.738 --> 00:08:03.775
So the progressive complaints leave out the fact
00:08:03.775 --> 00:08:06.144
That the entire family
00:08:06.144 --> 00:08:07.378
Could all go back to where they came from,
00:08:07.378 --> 00:08:09.247
If they're concerned about staying together.
00:08:09.247 --> 00:08:11.616
Am i correct about that?
00:08:11.616 --> 00:08:13.518
You're absolutely correct.
00:08:13.518 --> 00:08:14.619
So the option is if you have a u.s.
00:08:14.619 --> 00:08:16.287
Citizen child, you can leave them with a u.s.
00:08:16.287 --> 00:08:18.590
Citizen, guardian of some sort.
00:08:18.590 --> 00:08:21.826
And the other people, the rest of the family
00:08:21.826 --> 00:08:24.729
Is deported.
00:08:24.729 --> 00:08:25.430
If you want to take your child.
00:08:25.430 --> 00:08:26.631
Well, you know, we'll we'll send them all back together.
00:08:26.631 --> 00:08:29.200
So there's a choice. but you're absolutely right.
00:08:29.200 --> 00:08:31.536
There's there's.
00:08:31.536 --> 00:08:32.570
These are the ones that we.
00:08:32.570 --> 00:08:33.805
Noah, you got to remember that for a while,
00:08:33.805 --> 00:08:36.808
We were getting up to 200
00:08:36.808 --> 00:08:38.343
To 250,000 illegal immigrants going over the border.
00:08:38.343 --> 00:08:41.613
Now, these are encounters, pastor.
00:08:41.613 --> 00:08:43.314
These are encounters that were counted.
00:08:43.314 --> 00:08:45.183
What does not count is the other 1500 people per day
00:08:45.183 --> 00:08:48.686
That were crossing the border on the cbp, one app, or the tax
00:08:48.686 --> 00:08:52.724
Funded flights coming in from haiti, dominican republic,
00:08:52.724 --> 00:08:56.995
Nicaragua and other places
00:08:56.995 --> 00:08:58.529
That were going directly into our cities,
00:08:58.529 --> 00:09:00.698
In other places throughout the united states.
00:09:00.698 --> 00:09:02.734
Those are border encounters.
00:09:02.734 --> 00:09:04.102
And then the other 20% are the ones that are what we call
00:09:04.102 --> 00:09:07.238
God. those we don't know who they are.
00:09:07.238 --> 00:09:10.441
We have no trace who they where they come from.
00:09:10.441 --> 00:09:13.177
And ultimately,
00:09:13.177 --> 00:09:14.712
Those are the ones that are starting
00:09:14.712 --> 00:09:16.347
To cause havoc in the united states.
00:09:16.347 --> 00:09:18.349
Remember, you have these countries
00:09:18.349 --> 00:09:19.984
That emptied their jails and their, their their asylum.
00:09:19.984 --> 00:09:23.321
They said, you know what? this is your chance. head north.
00:09:23.321 --> 00:09:25.923
They didn't share any data with us.
00:09:25.923 --> 00:09:27.358
We don't have fingerprints. we don't know what they did.
00:09:27.358 --> 00:09:30.294
So they come here with a story concocted and tutored
00:09:30.294 --> 00:09:33.831
By the cartel activity, the organized crime
00:09:33.831 --> 00:09:37.001
And they come in, and our bar has been set so low for asylum.
00:09:37.001 --> 00:09:41.139
And, you know,
00:09:41.472 --> 00:09:42.607
All they have to do is say, hey, i want to claim asylum.
00:09:42.607 --> 00:09:43.808
They don't even have to prove where they come from. why?
00:09:43.808 --> 00:09:46.744
Because 89% of the people that come into this country
00:09:46.744 --> 00:09:50.715
That are given asylum do not show up in court. why?
00:09:50.715 --> 00:09:53.851
Because they do not
00:09:53.851 --> 00:09:55.319
Have the data or cannot prove credible fear.
00:09:55.319 --> 00:09:59.290
So what happens is you've let millions into this country.
00:09:59.290 --> 00:10:03.828
We trusted them.
00:10:03.828 --> 00:10:05.363
And then 89% don't show up in court.
00:10:05.363 --> 00:10:07.632
Now they become illegal citizens.
00:10:07.632 --> 00:10:09.400
And these are the people that we're after.
00:10:09.400 --> 00:10:11.035
They have run out of their ability
00:10:11.035 --> 00:10:12.770
To to, to go back to court or appeal.
00:10:12.770 --> 00:10:17.241
We gave them the ability to do it.
00:10:17.241 --> 00:10:19.310
They don't have credible fear.
00:10:19.310 --> 00:10:20.578
They lied to us. it's time to go back.
00:10:20.578 --> 00:10:22.847
We need to take a short break here,
00:10:23.614 --> 00:10:25.616
Where you can use the time to comment
00:10:25.616 --> 00:10:27.118
On this discussion and share your thoughts.
00:10:27.118 --> 00:10:29.220
Please send
00:10:29.220 --> 00:10:30.388
Any of your ideas to comments at alan jackson now.com.
00:10:30.388 --> 00:10:33.691
We'll be right back.
00:10:33.691 --> 00:10:41.003
We'll be right back.
00:10:41.003 --> 00:10:43.534
Well, we're back now with immigration
00:10:44.335 --> 00:10:46.037
Specialist nelson ballito, who heads ballito associates.
00:10:46.037 --> 00:10:49.874
After many years
00:10:49.874 --> 00:10:51.075
In the federal government working on border safety issues.
00:10:51.075 --> 00:10:54.145
Well, 22 states have already filed
00:10:54.912 --> 00:10:57.048
Suit over president trump's rollback of the long held
00:10:57.048 --> 00:11:00.118
Right of children who were born in the us to stay in the us.
00:11:00.118 --> 00:11:03.955
Trump ordered agencies to refuse to recognize their citizenship
00:11:03.955 --> 00:11:07.425
If neither parent is a u.s.
00:11:07.425 --> 00:11:08.826
Citizen or legal permanent resident.
00:11:08.826 --> 00:11:11.395
Well, of course, the 22 states are all run by democrats.
00:11:11.395 --> 00:11:14.665
A judge today
00:11:14.665 --> 00:11:15.700
Ordered a temporary restraining order on it.
00:11:15.700 --> 00:11:17.935
So how do you think this is going to play out?
00:11:17.935 --> 00:11:21.873
Well let's listen.
00:11:22.306 --> 00:11:23.174
I think there's this is going to play.
00:11:23.174 --> 00:11:24.742
It's interesting
00:11:24.742 --> 00:11:25.443
Because this is going to be
00:11:25.443 --> 00:11:26.511
A back and forth, ping pong table for a while because
00:11:26.511 --> 00:11:30.248
They don't like to hear that and they don't like to.
00:11:30.248 --> 00:11:32.984
Now that somebody actually said that they were going to do.
00:11:32.984 --> 00:11:35.419
And again, trump ran on this.
00:11:35.419 --> 00:11:37.522
He said he would do this.
00:11:37.522 --> 00:11:38.856
I shouldn't be surprised anybody.
00:11:38.856 --> 00:11:40.591
So there's two ways people come to our country and do this.
00:11:40.591 --> 00:11:43.394
One, they cross illegally or here illegally.
00:11:43.394 --> 00:11:46.164
And what traditionally what happens
00:11:46.164 --> 00:11:47.565
Is they have a child and it's called an anchor baby.
00:11:47.565 --> 00:11:50.234
The anchor baby then holds back the entire entire family
00:11:50.234 --> 00:11:54.071
From deport, from deportation
00:11:54.071 --> 00:11:56.007
Because they don't want to have family separation,
00:11:56.007 --> 00:11:58.042
Which i know that's going to be
00:11:58.042 --> 00:11:59.343
Changing very soon and changing now.
00:11:59.343 --> 00:12:01.345
The second is we have people that come on a visa.
00:12:01.345 --> 00:12:03.714
They come legally into the country on a visitor's visa.
00:12:03.714 --> 00:12:06.884
The mother's already seven months, eight months pregnant.
00:12:06.884 --> 00:12:09.487
They get a hotel room, they get a
00:12:09.487 --> 00:12:11.622
For extended period time.
00:12:11.622 --> 00:12:12.757
They have the child here with not an intention
00:12:12.757 --> 00:12:15.026
To stay in the country, but they leave only for the intention.
00:12:15.026 --> 00:12:18.129
So when they get there, eight, 17, 18, 19 year old to come back
00:12:18.129 --> 00:12:21.399
Into the country and go to college
00:12:21.399 --> 00:12:23.534
Or go to high school or use the educational system,
00:12:23.534 --> 00:12:26.838
What happens
00:12:26.838 --> 00:12:27.572
There is that since there's no
00:12:27.572 --> 00:12:29.207
There's no background on the parent
00:12:29.207 --> 00:12:31.475
And they have never lived in the united states,
00:12:31.475 --> 00:12:33.711
Now they qualify for pell grants.
00:12:33.711 --> 00:12:35.313
They qualify for all kinds of, of, different programs
00:12:35.313 --> 00:12:39.250
And educational programs
00:12:39.250 --> 00:12:40.351
That really put a lot
00:12:40.351 --> 00:12:42.053
Of our american children that have lived here
00:12:42.053 --> 00:12:44.922
And have residence, see here out of pocket,
00:12:44.922 --> 00:12:47.692
Because they're taking advantage of the system.
00:12:47.692 --> 00:12:49.193
Those are the two ways that's happening.
00:12:49.193 --> 00:12:51.095
It's happening every day.
00:12:51.095 --> 00:12:53.364
Well this is a real challenge for the new trump
00:12:54.265 --> 00:12:56.100
Administration.
00:12:56.100 --> 00:12:57.235
It's been four years with an open border.
00:12:57.235 --> 00:12:59.937
Jails are being emptied in some countries
00:12:59.937 --> 00:13:01.906
And people have taken haven in america's sanctuary cities.
00:13:01.906 --> 00:13:06.110
Listen as the president explains that that 2nd may end.
00:13:06.110 --> 00:13:09.981
What do you do.
00:13:10.348 --> 00:13:11.415
Sanctuary states by definition or sanctuary cities.
00:13:11.415 --> 00:13:15.386
They're aiding and abetting in the law.
00:13:15.386 --> 00:13:17.388
Breaking okay, they're going to get federal funds
00:13:17.388 --> 00:13:20.791
Trying to get rid of.
00:13:20.791 --> 00:13:21.692
And we're trying to end them.
00:13:21.692 --> 00:13:22.927
And a lot of the people in those communities don't want them.
00:13:22.927 --> 00:13:25.029
You know, california's a big part of their money.
00:13:25.029 --> 00:13:27.965
I might have to do that.
00:13:27.965 --> 00:13:31.302
So this is going to be a long process for tom homan
00:13:31.302 --> 00:13:33.905
And others in the trump administration.
00:13:33.905 --> 00:13:35.973
But correct about that.
00:13:35.973 --> 00:13:37.975
That's correct. it's going to take a while.
00:13:37.975 --> 00:13:39.644
It's going to take a lot of
00:13:39.644 --> 00:13:40.945
A lot of a lot of cooperation from, state and federal,
00:13:40.945 --> 00:13:45.216
Law enforcement and the local for those
00:13:45.216 --> 00:13:47.251
That don't want to participate
00:13:47.251 --> 00:13:48.619
Like these, some of these mayors,
00:13:48.619 --> 00:13:51.122
They may find themselves at the, sharp end of the stick
00:13:51.122 --> 00:13:54.292
Of the law like trump has said.
00:13:54.292 --> 00:13:56.127
So that's going to take a little while.
00:13:56.127 --> 00:13:57.695
But you got to remember why they do this.
00:13:57.695 --> 00:13:59.063
Why do they want more people coming to the country
00:13:59.063 --> 00:14:01.432
Or to the to their area?
00:14:01.432 --> 00:14:03.634
The census bureau is just every ten years.
00:14:03.634 --> 00:14:06.270
We count people in this country.
00:14:06.270 --> 00:14:08.039
And what happens is the more people you have
00:14:08.039 --> 00:14:09.707
In your area, the more federal funds you get.
00:14:09.707 --> 00:14:12.076
So they may not be able to vote, but if they if you can,
00:14:12.076 --> 00:14:15.813
If you can pack them in,
00:14:15.813 --> 00:14:17.114
You get more votes, you get more congressional seats,
00:14:17.114 --> 00:14:19.383
You get much more, federal funding and representation.
00:14:19.383 --> 00:14:24.255
So if i can bring more people for almost nothing
00:14:24.255 --> 00:14:27.358
And they settle in my area,
00:14:27.358 --> 00:14:28.793
That means i'm going to get more funding
00:14:28.793 --> 00:14:30.795
From the federal government
00:14:30.795 --> 00:14:32.096
And also have more congressional seats.
00:14:32.096 --> 00:14:34.131
So they're stuffing the ballot in one way or another,
00:14:34.131 --> 00:14:37.068
If you think about it.
00:14:37.068 --> 00:14:38.135
So what needs to happen is what they tried to pass
00:14:38.135 --> 00:14:40.571
In 2024 is a law that basically says in the,
00:14:40.571 --> 00:14:44.575
In the, in the new administration
00:14:44.575 --> 00:14:46.510
Or moving forward, when we do count you,
00:14:46.510 --> 00:14:48.346
We're going to count us citizens.
00:14:48.346 --> 00:14:49.947
We're not only going to count illegal aliens if you can, if
00:14:49.947 --> 00:14:53.684
You're only going to get money and you're only to be counted
00:14:53.684 --> 00:14:55.920
If you are a us voting person, i.e.
00:14:55.920 --> 00:14:59.824
A u.s.
00:15:00.024 --> 00:15:01.225
Citizen, if you're an illegal alien, you no longer than.
00:15:01.225 --> 00:15:03.728
This is exactly what's happening all over california.
00:15:03.728 --> 00:15:06.263
A very large percentage, 30 to 3540%
00:15:06.263 --> 00:15:09.266
Of some of these populations are nonvoting citizens.
00:15:09.266 --> 00:15:12.903
They're not citizens.
00:15:13.404 --> 00:15:14.572
And they don't they're not they're not allowed to vote.
00:15:14.572 --> 00:15:16.540
They're citizens from a different country.
00:15:16.540 --> 00:15:18.442
So those are things that need to be cured.
00:15:18.442 --> 00:15:20.578
And i think trump is going to look at those things
00:15:20.578 --> 00:15:23.180
To solve this issue.
00:15:23.180 --> 00:15:24.315
And all of a sudden
00:15:24.315 --> 00:15:24.882
These sanctuary cities
00:15:24.882 --> 00:15:26.117
Will go away because you say, well, i don't want them here
00:15:26.117 --> 00:15:27.485
If i don't get any federal funding.
00:15:27.485 --> 00:15:29.053
So i think those things will change.
00:15:29.053 --> 00:15:31.022
Well, nelson toledo, thank you for being with us tonight.
00:15:31.022 --> 00:15:34.525
Thank you for having me.
00:15:35.059 --> 00:15:36.093
And i always look forward to being on your show.
00:15:36.093 --> 00:15:37.762
But i hope you come back and update us on the immigration
00:15:37.762 --> 00:15:39.864
Front as things hopefully improve.
00:15:39.864 --> 00:15:42.633
Yeah. well, hopefully.
00:15:42.633 --> 00:15:43.801
Well, i think, every day it's getting a little better.
00:15:43.801 --> 00:15:45.970
So we're seeing it week one.
00:15:45.970 --> 00:15:47.938
And there's many, many, many more weeks to come.
00:15:47.938 --> 00:15:50.141
Amen.
00:15:50.141 --> 00:15:51.375
Well, in a moment, i'll have some
00:15:51.375 --> 00:15:52.543
Thoughts of my own to share with you.
00:15:52.543 --> 00:15:54.345
And later, your emails. we'll be right back.
00:15:54.345 --> 00:16:02.007
And later, your emails. we'll be right back.
00:16:02.007 --> 00:16:05.857
Well, securing the border is going to be difficult.
00:16:06.858 --> 00:16:09.728
Uprooting bad actors who are already here illegally.
00:16:09.728 --> 00:16:13.732
That's going to be difficult.
00:16:13.732 --> 00:16:15.500
Weathering the predictable storm of criticism.
00:16:15.500 --> 00:16:18.737
That's going to be difficult as well.
00:16:18.737 --> 00:16:20.772
But nothing worthwhile is ever easy.
00:16:20.772 --> 00:16:23.508
It feels to me that as a society,
00:16:23.508 --> 00:16:26.044
We have an addiction to easy.
00:16:26.044 --> 00:16:28.613
There was a whole marketing campaign not long ago
00:16:28.613 --> 00:16:30.582
Where a major nationwide chain claimed to have an easy button.
00:16:30.582 --> 00:16:34.419
Everything was easy.
00:16:34.419 --> 00:16:35.921
Shop at our store. it's easy.
00:16:35.921 --> 00:16:38.890
Well, unfortunately, this addiction to easy
00:16:38.890 --> 00:16:40.792
Is just as true in the church as it is outside the church.
00:16:40.792 --> 00:16:44.863
Well, i have an announcement for you.
00:16:44.863 --> 00:16:46.331
Those of you
00:16:46.331 --> 00:16:47.532
Who are christ followers, we have difficult things to do.
00:16:47.532 --> 00:16:50.869
God has laid out a prescription for us.
00:16:50.869 --> 00:16:53.105
He told us to put on the whole armor of god.
00:16:53.105 --> 00:16:55.373
You probably know the verse.
00:16:55.373 --> 00:16:56.508
It's ephesians 611 says, put on the full armor of god
00:16:56.508 --> 00:16:59.444
So that you can take your stand against the devil schemes.
00:16:59.444 --> 00:17:02.647
Please note he didn't say so
00:17:02.647 --> 00:17:03.715
The president kid or congress kid, but so you can.
00:17:03.715 --> 00:17:06.852
So i kid, here's the truth the armor of god.
00:17:06.852 --> 00:17:10.055
It's not comfortable.
00:17:10.055 --> 00:17:11.823
Well, unfortunately, those of us in the 21st century
00:17:11.823 --> 00:17:14.759
We want to put armor on that is comfortable.
00:17:14.759 --> 00:17:17.129
We want to sit in the comfort
00:17:17.129 --> 00:17:18.263
Of our easy chair and enjoy our favorite
00:17:18.263 --> 00:17:20.532
Snacks and refreshments.
00:17:20.532 --> 00:17:21.867
In truth, it seems to me we're far more committed
00:17:22.834 --> 00:17:24.803
To comfort and convenience of our faith.
00:17:24.803 --> 00:17:28.173
We want to go to church at the time we want to go.
00:17:28.173 --> 00:17:30.008
We want to sit in the seat where we want.
00:17:30.008 --> 00:17:31.543
We prefer,
00:17:31.543 --> 00:17:32.544
We want to park in a parking space
00:17:32.544 --> 00:17:34.212
That's most convenient for us.
00:17:34.212 --> 00:17:35.514
We want to sing
00:17:35.514 --> 00:17:36.581
The songs that we want in the style that we prefer.
00:17:36.581 --> 00:17:39.351
I like the navy seals motto.
00:17:39.951 --> 00:17:41.820
The only easy day was yesterday.
00:17:41.820 --> 00:17:44.723
We're going to have to get over easy if we want to go
00:17:44.723 --> 00:17:47.125
From where we are to excellence in serving the lord.
00:17:47.125 --> 00:17:50.829
Let's pray that god would grant us the courage to choose him
00:17:50.829 --> 00:17:54.266
Where we've been reluctant.
00:17:54.266 --> 00:17:56.001
If we'll do that,
00:17:56.001 --> 00:17:57.435
I believe there are many more reasons for hope than despair.
00:17:57.435 --> 00:18:00.906
A promise.
00:18:01.206 --> 00:18:02.274
When we come back in a moment,
00:18:02.274 --> 00:18:03.875
We're going to come back with your emails.
00:18:03.875 --> 00:18:11.999
We're going to come back with your emails.
00:18:11.999 --> 00:18:13.909
Thank you for taking the time to share your emails with us.
00:18:15.110 --> 00:18:18.180
Your thoughts and opinions.
00:18:18.180 --> 00:18:19.681
They're important.
00:18:19.681 --> 00:18:21.183
Wendy from illinois wrote dear pastor
00:18:21.183 --> 00:18:23.385
Jackson, i'm a disabled senior
00:18:23.385 --> 00:18:25.487
And i wholeheartedly agree with the person
00:18:25.487 --> 00:18:27.689
Who emailed tonight on alan jackson
00:18:27.689 --> 00:18:29.291
Now saying your 30 minutes show should go to 60 minutes.
00:18:29.291 --> 00:18:32.928
Well, wendy, i thank you for your kindness.
00:18:33.795 --> 00:18:35.197
There's two things you need to pray for.
00:18:35.197 --> 00:18:36.898
One,
00:18:36.898 --> 00:18:38.066
That the network would make the time available to us,
00:18:38.066 --> 00:18:39.901
And then that god would
00:18:39.901 --> 00:18:41.036
Provide the resources
00:18:41.036 --> 00:18:42.204
So we could pay for the time if those things happened.
00:18:42.204 --> 00:18:44.673
We'll see you for an hour a night.
00:18:44.673 --> 00:18:46.741
Then brad from michigan said, thank you for your presentation
00:18:46.741 --> 00:18:49.878
This weekend
00:18:49.878 --> 00:18:50.412
About the importance
00:18:50.412 --> 00:18:51.513
Of standing up rather than sitting in our recliners.
00:18:51.513 --> 00:18:54.382
How will we get this message out to more people?
00:18:54.382 --> 00:18:57.919
Well, brad, you could certainly share that message.
00:18:57.919 --> 00:19:00.155
You can go to our website and they're all archived there.
00:19:00.155 --> 00:19:03.291
But i really think the most
00:19:03.291 --> 00:19:04.526
Profound and powerful way to do it is simply by word of mouth.
00:19:04.526 --> 00:19:08.296
Let's encourage one another not just to be observers
00:19:08.296 --> 00:19:10.999
Of church or attenders of church and survivors of sermons.
00:19:10.999 --> 00:19:14.869
Let's actually take those biblical principles
00:19:14.869 --> 00:19:16.905
That we know and live them out in our world.
00:19:16.905 --> 00:19:19.407
That will bring true change.
00:19:19.407 --> 00:19:22.711
If you miss any of our alan jackson now programs,
00:19:22.711 --> 00:19:24.846
I want to encourage you
00:19:24.846 --> 00:19:25.914
To go to our youtube channel at alan jackson now.
00:19:25.914 --> 00:19:28.550
And you can see every program.
00:19:28.550 --> 00:19:29.818
We post them every evening.
00:19:29.818 --> 00:19:31.620
If you'll subscribe.
00:19:31.620 --> 00:19:33.121
You'll be notified
00:19:33.121 --> 00:19:33.955
Every time a new program is posted,
00:19:33.955 --> 00:19:35.790
And it will help us gain a bit of momentum.
00:19:35.790 --> 00:19:38.760
Thank you for joining us tonight.
00:19:38.760 --> 00:19:41.296
We appreciate your time, and i know it's valuable to you.
00:19:41.296 --> 00:19:44.199
And i assure you it's important to us.
00:19:44.199 --> 00:19:46.768

00:19:46.768 --> 00:19:48.036

00:19:48.036 --> 00:19:52.040

00:19:52.040 --> 00:19:52.040
