TRANSCRIPTS:
1
00:00:03,120 –> 00:00:04,960
The No Bullshit News Hour.
2
00:00:05,280 –> 00:00:07,840
Today, bad times for Big Mouth.
3
00:00:08,160 –> 00:00:10,320
America’s most political attorney general,
4
00:00:10,400 –> 00:00:11,280
Dana Nessel,
5
00:00:11,920 –> 00:00:12,880
has been served.
6
00:00:13,040 –> 00:00:13,680
Hit me with that.
7
00:00:17,720 –> 00:00:22,640
And the Dearborn terror suspect is now ICE’s fugitive
8
00:00:22,640 –> 00:00:23,640
number one.
9
00:00:23,640 –> 00:00:28,160
And Mike Dummings.
10
00:00:28,440 –> 00:00:29,520
The Dirtbag,
11
00:00:29,880 –> 00:00:30,320
an update.
12
00:00:34,560 –> 00:00:38,800
Finally, I don’t think Darren McCarter’s that tough.
13
00:00:45,360 –> 00:00:47,760
Live from downtown Detroit,
14
00:00:48,000 –> 00:00:52,520
it’s the No Bullshit News Hour with my main man,
15
00:00:52,880 –> 00:00:53,920
Charlie
16
00:00:57,840 –> 00:00:59,000
Duh! And Jaren Dubin.
17
00:01:00,640 –> 00:01:03,200
Assistant breaking this double or bullshit,
18
00:01:03,440 –> 00:01:04,320
double or bullshit.
19
00:01:04,800 –> 00:01:08,320
Blockbuster news coming.
20
00:01:09,200 –> 00:01:14,720
All flowing out of the No Bullshit News Hour slash
21
00:01:14,720 –> 00:01:15,760
Michigan Enjoyer.
22
00:01:15,760 –> 00:01:18,240
We are just rocking the state of Michigan.
23
00:01:18,560 –> 00:01:19,360
But first…
24
00:01:21,760 –> 00:01:24,080
There’s still a lot of work that needs to be done on
25
00:01:24,080 –> 00:01:24,640
Belle Isle,
26
00:01:24,640 –> 00:01:27,360
the geriatric queen of Detroit’s grandeur.
27
00:01:27,920 –> 00:01:30,880
The island’s 100-year-old neoclassical fountain is
28
00:01:30,880 –> 00:01:31,920
as dry as a dog bowl.
29
00:01:32,240 –> 00:01:37,360
The abandoned 135-year-old zoo looks more like a soundstage
30
00:01:37,640 –> 00:01:41,200
of a Hollywood horror flick that’s scheduled for bulldozing
31
00:01:41,200 –> 00:01:41,680
sometime.
32
00:01:42,160 –> 00:01:44,000
And the albino deer have been shipped to the Detroit
33
00:01:44,000 –> 00:01:46,480
Zoo to die a dignified death of old age.
34
00:01:46,960 –> 00:01:50,080
The 120-year-old aquarium has a roof that spits more
35
00:01:50,080 –> 00:01:52,160
water than the Grand Fountain itself.
36
00:01:52,240 –> 00:01:56,320
But the island’s giant slide,
37
00:01:56,480 –> 00:01:59,280
that majestic Stonehenge of the Great Lakes,
38
00:02:00,240 –> 00:02:01,360
has been repaired,
39
00:02:05,280 –> 00:02:06,080
reopened,
40
00:02:06,240 –> 00:02:08,960
and is now operating at limited hours,
41
00:02:09,120 –> 00:02:10,480
costing $1.00 a ride.
42
00:02:10,880 –> 00:02:14,160
The slide vaulted into international headlines in 2022
43
00:02:14,320 –> 00:02:16,520
after being closed for two years for COVID.
44
00:02:17,120 –> 00:02:20,000
Somebody from the state’s parks department applied
45
00:02:20,000 –> 00:02:22,680
too much canning wax back then to the structure’s
46
00:02:22,680 –> 00:02:23,920
stainless steel arches,
47
00:02:24,080 –> 00:02:26,480
causing thrill seekers to rocket airborne,
48
00:02:26,640 –> 00:02:28,160
returning with the crushing thud,
49
00:02:28,320 –> 00:02:30,000
only to be launched skyward again.
50
00:02:30,320 –> 00:02:32,720
It was a veritable slaughterhouse,
51
00:02:33,120 –> 00:02:35,040
a fuselage of flaming skin,
52
00:02:35,360 –> 00:02:37,280
a bobsleigh of battered bones.
53
00:02:37,760 –> 00:02:39,120
So the track was closed again,
54
00:02:39,440 –> 00:02:41,320
and repairs were promised.
55
00:02:42,480 –> 00:02:44,960
Have scientists from the Department of Natural Resources
56
00:02:45,040 –> 00:02:46,960
been able to triage the problem?
57
00:02:47,520 –> 00:02:48,800
Let me give you some background first.
58
00:02:49,600 –> 00:02:51,040
The iconic 40-foot slide,
59
00:02:51,280 –> 00:02:52,640
built somewhere in California,
60
00:02:52,960 –> 00:02:57,120
opened in 1967 as part of a plan to build a grand,
61
00:02:57,280 –> 00:02:59,960
privately run amusement park on the island to be christened,
62
00:03:00,080 –> 00:03:00,960
Funland.
63
00:03:01,520 –> 00:03:02,080
Sounds fun.
64
00:03:03,280 –> 00:03:05,680
The plan ran into financial troubles and community
65
00:03:05,680 –> 00:03:07,920
controversies and was never realized.
66
00:03:08,320 –> 00:03:10,320
I don’t think the riots that summer probably helped
67
00:03:10,320 –> 00:03:11,120
much either.
68
00:03:11,360 –> 00:03:11,920
Still,
69
00:03:12,320 –> 00:03:15,760
We had the slide that’s provided memories for generations
70
00:03:15,760 –> 00:03:17,120
of Detroit staredevils.
71
00:03:17,520 –> 00:03:21,680
It ran continuously until 2004 when it was replaced
72
00:03:21,680 –> 00:03:22,720
due to decrepitude.
73
00:03:23,120 –> 00:03:23,920
The new slide,
74
00:03:23,920 –> 00:03:25,120
Origins Unknown,
75
00:03:25,440 –> 00:03:29,720
operated continuously from 2005 until the city went
76
00:03:29,720 –> 00:03:32,720
broke in 2013 and Belle Isle was turned over to the
77
00:03:32,720 –> 00:03:33,600
state of Michigan.
78
00:03:34,400 –> 00:03:39,520
The slide again was reopened in 2014 and ran continuously
79
00:03:39,720 –> 00:03:40,560
until 2020.
80
00:03:40,600 –> 00:03:42,160
Then COVID happened.
81
00:03:42,320 –> 00:03:44,960
Then the infamous videos of people being tossed like
82
00:03:44,960 –> 00:03:46,640
bags of soiled laundry.
83
00:03:46,880 –> 00:03:47,920
And now once again,
84
00:03:48,640 –> 00:03:50,080
it’s open and operational.
85
00:03:50,160 –> 00:03:53,360
Park officials say the ride of a lifetime is available
86
00:03:53,360 –> 00:03:54,240
to all comers.
87
00:03:54,960 –> 00:03:56,080
But did they fix it?
88
00:03:56,880 –> 00:03:57,680
Behold,
89
00:03:58,400 –> 00:04:00,960
as Ken, my corpulent cameraman,
90
00:04:01,200 –> 00:04:04,680
scales the towering heights of our Midwestern Mount
91
00:04:04,680 –> 00:04:05,120
Everest.
92
00:04:07,600 –> 00:04:09,280
Idaho has the Snake River.
93
00:04:10,000 –> 00:04:11,760
Arizona has the Grand Canyon.
94
00:04:12,400 –> 00:04:13,120
And Detroit,
95
00:04:14,240 –> 00:04:15,480
the Giant Slide.
96
00:04:17,760 –> 00:04:20,600
Nobody truly knows where it came from or how it got
97
00:04:20,600 –> 00:04:21,440
to Belle Isle,
98
00:04:21,840 –> 00:04:24,560
but it made international headlines a few years ago
99
00:04:24,880 –> 00:04:26,840
when it reopened during COVID.
100
00:04:29,040 –> 00:04:30,720
It’s a fuselage of fear,
101
00:04:31,040 –> 00:04:32,640
a luge of skin lesions,
102
00:04:32,960 –> 00:04:35,360
a bobsled of bruised behinds.
103
00:04:36,160 –> 00:04:37,240
They promised to fix it.
104
00:04:38,080 –> 00:04:38,720
But did they?
105
00:04:39,200 –> 00:04:42,520
I brought my son Ken along with me to find out.
106
00:04:43,040 –> 00:04:44,320
Ken’s not really my son.
107
00:04:44,640 –> 00:04:46,000
He’s my cameraman.
108
00:04:46,400 –> 00:04:47,680
But I got a bum knee,
109
00:04:48,080 –> 00:04:50,560
and cameramen can always be replaced.
110
00:04:53,360 –> 00:04:53,440
Go!
111
00:04:59,520 –> 00:05:00,880
Oh, catch the ball,
112
00:05:00,880 –> 00:05:01,200
man.
113
00:05:01,520 –> 00:05:02,240
You suck.
114
00:05:06,760 –> 00:05:08,440
Daddy, I don’t want to go down the slide.
115
00:05:08,880 –> 00:05:10,080
Go on, you little wuss,
116
00:05:10,080 –> 00:05:11,280
it’ll make you a man.
117
00:05:11,280 –> 00:05:13,440
No, no!
118
00:05:49,600 –> 00:05:54,320
I can report that they fixed the giant slide too much.
119
00:05:57,520 –> 00:05:59,280
Papa, that wasn’t really so scary.
120
00:05:59,760 –> 00:06:01,280
Can I have some ice cream?
121
00:06:03,360 –> 00:06:04,320
Nah, you’re too fat.
122
00:06:10,920 –> 00:06:11,680
I’m Grace Karos,
123
00:06:11,720 –> 00:06:14,000
and I’m third generation of American Coney Island.
124
00:06:14,400 –> 00:06:16,080
People say Detroit’s a comeback city.
125
00:06:16,080 –> 00:06:16,920
I say where you’ve been.
126
00:06:16,920 –> 00:06:18,640
We’ve been here for over 100 years.
127
00:06:18,960 –> 00:06:20,960
My family’s been here on the same corner,
128
00:06:21,120 –> 00:06:24,360
serving our famous proprietary American Coney Island
129
00:06:24,360 –> 00:06:24,680
hot dog.
130
00:06:25,520 –> 00:06:26,160
So like always,
131
00:06:26,160 –> 00:06:27,280
we’re keeping things fresh,
132
00:06:27,440 –> 00:06:28,720
updated, and new.
133
00:06:31,040 –> 00:06:32,800
We’d love to have you come downtown and visit us,
134
00:06:32,880 –> 00:06:33,600
but if you can’t,
135
00:06:33,760 –> 00:06:35,920
you can always go to AmericanConeyIsland.com,
136
00:06:36,000 –> 00:06:36,880
order a Coney kit,
137
00:06:36,880 –> 00:06:38,640
get it delivered fresh right to your door.
138
00:06:39,200 –> 00:06:41,960
This message of Uplift is brought to you by business
139
00:06:41,960 –> 00:06:43,360
and personal wealth advisor,
140
00:06:43,360 –> 00:06:44,320
Luke Nowacki,
141
00:06:44,640 –> 00:06:47,560
who reminds you that what does it profit a man to
142
00:06:47,600 –> 00:06:48,720
gain the whole world,
143
00:06:48,880 –> 00:06:50,720
but never enter the kingdom of God?
144
00:06:51,520 –> 00:06:52,480
But while you’re waiting,
145
00:06:52,480 –> 00:06:55,120
Nowacki wants you to remember that overreaction is
146
00:06:55,120 –> 00:06:56,800
not a sound financial strategy.
147
00:06:57,200 –> 00:07:03,200
So call Luke Nowacki at 248-663-4748 for sound financial
148
00:07:03,560 –> 00:07:03,760
advice.
149
00:07:06,320 –> 00:07:10,240
I should mention here at American Coney Island,
150
00:07:10,400 –> 00:07:11,600
there is a secret menu.
151
00:07:13,680 –> 00:07:14,440
I know that.
152
00:07:14,440 –> 00:07:14,560
Yeah.
153
00:07:15,680 –> 00:07:16,360
Want one or two?
154
00:07:16,360 –> 00:07:17,120
I’m not, I’m not gonna.
155
00:07:18,480 –> 00:07:19,080
There is the.
156
00:07:20,720 –> 00:07:23,120
chili nacho salad.
157
00:07:24,480 –> 00:07:29,680
It’s the best nachos I’ve ever had.
158
00:07:29,840 –> 00:07:30,160
Deal.
159
00:07:30,240 –> 00:07:34,160
And the chips come from Mexican town every day.
160
00:07:35,800 –> 00:07:36,040
Okay.
161
00:07:36,160 –> 00:07:38,960
And then there’s the double dog.
162
00:07:40,800 –> 00:07:41,280
Double dog.
163
00:07:41,280 –> 00:07:42,000
Think about that.
164
00:07:43,180 –> 00:07:44,580
Two dogs in one coney.
165
00:07:45,780 –> 00:07:46,820
Saves the carbs.
166
00:07:46,820 –> 00:07:47,500
Is that legal?
167
00:07:47,500 –> 00:07:48,500
It’s huge in Vegas.
168
00:07:48,740 –> 00:07:50,980
It was invented by some high rollers in Vegas.
169
00:07:51,620 –> 00:07:53,940
They call it the 500,
170
00:07:53,940 –> 00:07:54,660
the 500o,
171
00:07:54,660 –> 00:07:56,340
but that is proprietary.
172
00:07:56,340 –> 00:07:58,420
So I cannot call it the 500.
173
00:07:59,060 –> 00:07:59,820
It’s the double dog.
174
00:08:00,660 –> 00:08:02,140
But they’ll know what you’re talking about if you come
175
00:08:02,140 –> 00:08:02,660
in and say,
176
00:08:02,820 –> 00:08:03,860
give me the 500o.
177
00:08:04,180 –> 00:08:04,740
Just saying.
178
00:08:05,940 –> 00:08:06,940
It was great today too.
179
00:08:06,940 –> 00:08:08,220
We’re getting ready for the show and a guy came in,
180
00:08:08,220 –> 00:08:10,620
he was complaining about the price and then we just
181
00:08:10,620 –> 00:08:11,620
started talking about
182
00:08:12,100 –> 00:08:13,140
inflation,
183
00:08:14,100 –> 00:08:15,780
taxes on the awnings,
184
00:08:16,660 –> 00:08:17,940
taxes up to ass,
185
00:08:18,660 –> 00:08:20,580
having to support billionaires down here.
186
00:08:22,340 –> 00:08:25,860
They raised the taxes of the business owners in the
187
00:08:25,860 –> 00:08:28,740
district down here in order to pay for the bonds for
188
00:08:28,740 –> 00:08:29,540
the billionaires.
189
00:08:29,620 –> 00:08:32,940
So the business owners are in fact subsidizing their
190
00:08:32,940 –> 00:08:33,620
competition.
191
00:08:33,940 –> 00:08:35,140
And then he just goes,
192
00:08:35,780 –> 00:08:36,260
you’re right.
193
00:08:36,860 –> 00:08:39,060
And he turns around and come back in and had a couple
194
00:08:39,060 –> 00:08:40,180
of delicious dogs.
195
00:08:41,340 –> 00:08:43,340
Could have saved him a buck or two on the double dog.
196
00:08:45,940 –> 00:08:46,260
All right,
197
00:08:46,260 –> 00:08:47,860
man, big news.
198
00:08:48,580 –> 00:08:49,780
Give me some kind of music.
199
00:08:52,460 –> 00:09:02,020
What do I got here?
200
00:09:05,260 –> 00:09:08,580
This is exclusive journalism by us,
201
00:09:09,140 –> 00:09:10,100
Dana Nestle.
202
00:09:10,580 –> 00:09:14,100
The Attorney General of the State of Michigan has been
203
00:09:14,100 –> 00:09:17,140
subpoenaed by the House Oversight Committee.
204
00:09:17,700 –> 00:09:19,140
A raft of subpoenas.
205
00:09:19,380 –> 00:09:19,700
Whoa.
206
00:09:20,660 –> 00:09:21,460
First one,
207
00:09:22,500 –> 00:09:25,100
any, Tracy Cornack,
208
00:09:25,100 –> 00:09:26,500
we all remember that,
209
00:09:27,380 –> 00:09:30,100
the treasurer of the Michigan Democratic Party,
210
00:09:31,060 –> 00:09:33,780
close friends with Governor Gretchen Whitmer,
211
00:09:34,100 –> 00:09:35,140
Dana Nestle,
212
00:09:35,620 –> 00:09:37,460
And Chief Justice,
213
00:09:37,460 –> 00:09:39,620
retired Chief Justice McCormick of the Supreme Court,
214
00:09:39,620 –> 00:09:40,980
actually ran her first campaign,
215
00:09:41,220 –> 00:09:42,340
really tied in,
216
00:09:42,580 –> 00:09:43,780
is a conservator,
217
00:09:44,100 –> 00:09:45,580
lawyer that takes care of old,
218
00:09:45,580 –> 00:09:46,980
incapable old people.
219
00:09:47,380 –> 00:09:48,180
You know what I’m saying?
220
00:09:48,500 –> 00:09:50,020
And, you know,
221
00:09:50,020 –> 00:09:51,220
we got it through nursing home.
222
00:09:51,220 –> 00:09:55,060
Joey blew the whistle that Ms.
223
00:09:55,060 –> 00:09:58,020
Cornack was trying to commit insurance fraud.
224
00:09:59,940 –> 00:10:01,060
It went to Dana Nestle.
225
00:10:01,060 –> 00:10:03,300
Dana Nestle was supposed to create an ethical firewall
226
00:10:03,300 –> 00:10:04,740
where she wouldn’t touch anything.
227
00:10:04,820 –> 00:10:06,020
Turns out she did.
228
00:10:06,020 –> 00:10:06,940
Turns out she gave.
229
00:10:07,060 –> 00:10:07,740
Didn’t even try.
230
00:10:07,900 –> 00:10:09,300
Didn’t even try to do a firewall.
231
00:10:09,300 –> 00:10:11,620
Oh, when you look at the documents,
232
00:10:11,620 –> 00:10:12,020
right?
233
00:10:12,020 –> 00:10:14,340
This is crazy.
234
00:10:15,140 –> 00:10:17,140
Let me just basically put it to you this way.
235
00:10:18,820 –> 00:10:21,700
Through these subpoenas,
236
00:10:22,900 –> 00:10:24,860
what the House Oversight Committee is looking into
237
00:10:24,900 –> 00:10:28,740
in terms of Nestle is selective prosecution,
238
00:10:29,140 –> 00:10:34,100
violations of ethical standards for attorneys and prosecutors,
239
00:10:34,260 –> 00:10:36,260
possibly obstruction of justice.
240
00:10:38,260 –> 00:10:40,260
It’s, we’ve been going on forever and ever,
241
00:10:40,260 –> 00:10:41,940
like, and nobody,
242
00:10:42,020 –> 00:10:42,660
like, you know,
243
00:10:42,900 –> 00:10:44,100
fuck the Detroit News.
244
00:10:45,060 –> 00:10:46,180
They won’t even run it.
245
00:10:46,180 –> 00:10:47,700
You know, I ran into problems with them.
246
00:10:47,700 –> 00:10:48,900
They’re going to stick their nose in my,
247
00:10:48,980 –> 00:10:49,940
they don’t do shit.
248
00:10:50,420 –> 00:10:52,540
They ran a subpoena story about them subpoenaing the
249
00:10:53,060 –> 00:10:53,940
health director.
250
00:10:54,100 –> 00:10:54,580
Yes.
251
00:10:55,180 –> 00:10:57,700
But nothing about these other subpoenas to the Attorney
252
00:10:57,700 –> 00:10:58,260
General.
253
00:10:58,420 –> 00:10:59,020
Yes, so.
254
00:10:59,020 –> 00:10:59,860
It’s kind of crazy.
255
00:11:00,500 –> 00:11:01,780
Well, here,
256
00:11:01,860 –> 00:11:02,820
go ahead and play a little.
257
00:11:02,820 –> 00:11:05,780
Do we have a little clip of me at Cornack’s house?
258
00:11:05,860 –> 00:11:06,020
Yep.
259
00:11:06,260 –> 00:11:06,500
Okay.
260
00:11:08,820 –> 00:11:10,020
Finding no office,
261
00:11:10,180 –> 00:11:13,300
we went to Cornack’s house in suburban Grand Rapids.
262
00:11:14,020 –> 00:11:14,180
Hello?
263
00:11:17,140 –> 00:11:18,340
People were inside.
264
00:11:18,500 –> 00:11:19,860
I saw the blinds moving,
265
00:11:20,260 –> 00:11:21,700
but they pretended they weren’t inside.
266
00:11:21,700 –> 00:11:24,180
I’d like to talk to you about one of your clients,
267
00:11:24,500 –> 00:11:24,700
Miss.
268
00:11:29,860 –> 00:11:35,460
Did in fact your daughter apply $50,000 of care to
269
00:11:35,460 –> 00:11:36,420
this old woman?
270
00:11:38,860 –> 00:11:41,380
And why are you using somebody else’s tax ID number?
271
00:11:41,700 –> 00:11:43,620
There’s no record of your daughter being there.
272
00:11:44,420 –> 00:11:45,300
We like answers.
273
00:11:45,300 –> 00:11:46,740
We care about our old people.
274
00:11:47,780 –> 00:11:49,660
And then someone screamed out the window.
275
00:11:49,660 –> 00:11:52,300
Get the fuck out of that mailbox.
276
00:11:52,420 –> 00:11:53,740
I just caught you on camera.
277
00:11:54,740 –> 00:11:55,460
Say what?
278
00:11:55,460 –> 00:11:58,580
Get the fuck out of that mailbox.
279
00:11:58,580 –> 00:11:59,940
I just caught you on camera.
280
00:12:00,660 –> 00:12:02,100
Let’s hear that one more time.
281
00:12:03,380 –> 00:12:04,740
Get the fuck out of that mailbox.
282
00:12:04,820 –> 00:12:07,500
I just caught you on camera.
283
00:12:07,500 –> 00:12:07,660
M.
284
00:12:07,660 –> 00:12:10,020
Effer from the upstairs window.
285
00:12:10,340 –> 00:12:13,380
Not what I’d expect from one of the most powerful Democrats
286
00:12:13,380 –> 00:12:14,100
in Michigan.
287
00:12:14,340 –> 00:12:15,060
That was friendly.
288
00:12:16,580 –> 00:12:17,540
Must be a lawyer.
289
00:12:19,380 –> 00:12:19,700
Jesus.
290
00:12:19,780 –> 00:12:21,140
You’re going to need a lawyer now.
291
00:12:21,140 –> 00:12:21,700
I told you,
292
00:12:21,700 –> 00:12:23,220
man, I’m like a dog on a knee.
293
00:12:23,380 –> 00:12:25,300
So what do they want?
294
00:12:26,180 –> 00:12:28,980
Any complaint submitted to the Michigan Department
295
00:12:28,980 –> 00:12:32,740
of Attorney General regarding potential criminal activity
296
00:12:33,220 –> 00:12:34,340
by Tracy Kornat.
297
00:12:35,060 –> 00:12:37,980
All internal communications with the Michigan Department
298
00:12:37,980 –> 00:12:40,700
of Attorney General involving any of its officials,
299
00:12:40,700 –> 00:12:41,380
employees,
300
00:12:41,540 –> 00:12:42,420
contractors,
301
00:12:42,580 –> 00:12:46,100
agents regarding an investigation into potential criminal
302
00:12:46,100 –> 00:12:49,300
activity by Tracy Kornack or any complaint alleging
303
00:12:49,300 –> 00:12:52,100
potential criminal activity by Tracy Kornack.
304
00:12:52,740 –> 00:12:55,180
All communications between the Attorney General and
305
00:12:55,180 –> 00:12:58,980
any other state department concerning a potential
306
00:12:58,980 –> 00:12:59,780
investigation,
307
00:13:00,180 –> 00:13:00,740
criminal.
308
00:13:01,060 –> 00:13:02,900
Activity by Tracy Kornak.
309
00:13:03,380 –> 00:13:04,660
All communications involving.
310
00:13:05,460 –> 00:13:06,020
You get it.
311
00:13:07,060 –> 00:13:07,860
That’s pretty thorough.
312
00:13:07,860 –> 00:13:09,740
Nessa wasn’t supposed to talk to Kornak.
313
00:13:09,740 –> 00:13:11,940
And not only did she talk to Kornak,
314
00:13:12,180 –> 00:13:16,180
they gave Kornak the active criminal case on Kornak.
315
00:13:17,700 –> 00:13:19,460
This ain’t going away like you.
316
00:13:20,020 –> 00:13:21,780
Okay, let me explain something to everybody.
317
00:13:22,580 –> 00:13:23,980
Boring, boring.
318
00:13:23,980 –> 00:13:25,100
Why do you keep doing that?
319
00:13:25,220 –> 00:13:26,980
Oh, there he goes again.
320
00:13:27,140 –> 00:13:29,860
Because I don’t know why this is what it takes.
321
00:13:30,500 –> 00:13:33,860
in a supposedly open society where these people represent
322
00:13:33,860 –> 00:13:36,740
us and are supposed to protect old people.
323
00:13:36,820 –> 00:13:41,180
And Ness is out there pirouetting my elder abuse task
324
00:13:41,180 –> 00:13:44,420
force and here you go right under your nose and you
325
00:13:44,420 –> 00:13:45,500
didn’t look into it.
326
00:13:45,500 –> 00:13:46,820
And it was just me.
327
00:13:46,820 –> 00:13:50,580
Now we got something official and we do know that the
328
00:13:50,580 –> 00:13:53,700
Kent County prosecutor’s been looking into this lots
329
00:13:53,700 –> 00:13:55,300
of records for,
330
00:13:55,700 –> 00:13:58,580
oh geez, almost three years now.
331
00:14:00,060 –> 00:14:03,380
a decision whether the charge will be coming soon.
332
00:14:03,540 –> 00:14:03,860
Oh boy.
333
00:14:05,380 –> 00:14:07,220
Then she got hit with another subpoena.
334
00:14:08,260 –> 00:14:12,020
Remember when we told you about her wife,
335
00:14:12,060 –> 00:14:13,140
Alana McGuire,
336
00:14:13,700 –> 00:14:16,580
was trying to get gay rights legislation into the
337
00:14:16,580 –> 00:14:20,260
state constitution and they raised millions of dollars
338
00:14:20,420 –> 00:14:23,060
and it never got to the ballot because One Finger
339
00:14:23,060 –> 00:14:24,900
Freddie, our friend One Finger Freddie,
340
00:14:25,060 –> 00:14:26,660
got a bunch of bogus signatures,
341
00:14:27,540 –> 00:14:27,860
right?
342
00:14:28,980 –> 00:14:30,020
Nestle never charged them,
343
00:14:30,020 –> 00:14:30,980
never told anybody.
344
00:14:30,980 –> 00:14:37,140
Then all the Republican candidates for governor back
345
00:14:38,220 –> 00:14:42,500
in 2022, hired the same guy and they all got thrown
346
00:14:42,500 –> 00:14:44,820
off for fake signatures.
347
00:14:44,820 –> 00:14:47,140
So why didn’t Nestle bring charges against Freddie?
348
00:14:47,580 –> 00:14:49,500
Trying to protect that whole thing with the Republicans.
349
00:14:49,500 –> 00:14:51,220
Trying to protect her wife because somebody got to
350
00:14:51,220 –> 00:14:55,860
look into the wife’s campaign because what we found
351
00:14:55,860 –> 00:14:56,500
was
352
00:14:57,700 –> 00:14:59,620
the shadow charity for DTE,
353
00:15:00,660 –> 00:15:05,220
funneling it into a weird 501c4,
354
00:15:05,300 –> 00:15:05,620
you know,
355
00:15:05,620 –> 00:15:07,220
one of these political groups where you don’t have
356
00:15:07,220 –> 00:15:08,500
to say who your donors are.
357
00:15:10,420 –> 00:15:14,500
Who funnels the money into Nestle’s wife’s deal?
358
00:15:15,540 –> 00:15:16,540
Why is that important?
359
00:15:16,980 –> 00:15:19,060
They’ve been charged because it looked like they were
360
00:15:19,300 –> 00:15:19,860
colluding.
361
00:15:19,860 –> 00:15:20,180
You’re not,
362
00:15:20,180 –> 00:15:21,540
they’re not allowed to cooperate,
363
00:15:21,940 –> 00:15:22,260
but
364
00:15:22,668 –> 00:15:24,228
Bill would come due for one finger Freddie,
365
00:15:24,228 –> 00:15:25,748
let’s say 75,000.
366
00:15:28,188 –> 00:15:32,348
Nestle’s wife’s people would pay it 75,000.
367
00:15:32,748 –> 00:15:34,588
It comes in from Bipartisan Solutions,
368
00:15:34,588 –> 00:15:36,028
which is a guy named what Richard Zuba?
369
00:15:36,028 –> 00:15:36,748
Richard Zuba,
370
00:15:36,828 –> 00:15:37,948
the pollster.
371
00:15:37,948 –> 00:15:38,828
A pollster,
372
00:15:38,828 –> 00:15:41,708
big Democratic hack who’s quoted in the papers all
373
00:15:41,708 –> 00:15:42,068
the time.
374
00:15:42,068 –> 00:15:43,508
You see him on Channel 4 all the time.
375
00:15:43,508 –> 00:15:44,788
He’s being right down the middle,
376
00:15:44,788 –> 00:15:45,948
like you can trust this guy.
377
00:15:45,948 –> 00:15:47,548
He has no hidden interest.
378
00:15:48,028 –> 00:15:50,988
Okay, so it goes from DTE’s dark money,
379
00:15:50,988 –> 00:15:51,828
75 grand,
380
00:15:52,188 –> 00:15:52,908
into Zuba,
381
00:15:52,908 –> 00:15:53,948
75 grand,
382
00:15:55,068 –> 00:15:56,268
to Fair and Equal Michigan,
383
00:15:56,268 –> 00:15:58,348
that’s Nestle’s wife’s deal,
384
00:15:59,148 –> 00:16:00,028
to One Finger Freddy,
385
00:16:00,028 –> 00:16:01,468
75, you can just watch it.
386
00:16:01,788 –> 00:16:03,028
Okay, why is this important?
387
00:16:03,028 –> 00:16:04,028
We weren’t even careful about it.
388
00:16:04,028 –> 00:16:05,828
Because they did one with conservatives,
389
00:16:05,828 –> 00:16:07,228
it was called Unlock Michigan.
390
00:16:07,468 –> 00:16:08,108
They wanted to,
391
00:16:08,268 –> 00:16:08,468
you know,
392
00:16:08,468 –> 00:16:10,148
open the state during COVID.
393
00:16:10,148 –> 00:16:10,588
Same thing,
394
00:16:10,588 –> 00:16:11,628
DTE.
395
00:16:12,988 –> 00:16:16,588
to a 501c4 to unlock Michigan.
396
00:16:16,748 –> 00:16:20,268
Now we get front page news from the dying Detroit news
397
00:16:20,428 –> 00:16:22,668
about DTE dark money.
398
00:16:23,868 –> 00:16:26,508
You know what big wigs were contributing,
399
00:16:26,748 –> 00:16:28,588
but they don’t touch this one.
400
00:16:29,148 –> 00:16:34,108
They don’t touch bipartisan solutions.
401
00:16:34,268 –> 00:16:34,868
That’s Zuba.
402
00:16:34,988 –> 00:16:35,868
I wonder why.
403
00:16:35,868 –> 00:16:37,468
Giving it to Nestle’s wife.
404
00:16:37,788 –> 00:16:39,748
Who is the chairman of Unlock Michigan?
405
00:16:39,948 –> 00:16:41,228
Well, do we have a little clip on that,
406
00:16:41,228 –> 00:16:41,548
Mark?
407
00:16:41,948 –> 00:16:43,148
Yeah, with One Finger Freddy.
408
00:16:43,708 –> 00:16:45,868
No, it’s on,
409
00:16:45,868 –> 00:16:46,508
it’s all on there.
410
00:16:46,748 –> 00:16:47,468
OK, let’s OK.
411
00:16:47,468 –> 00:16:48,228
I don’t know what we have.
412
00:16:48,228 –> 00:16:48,588
Let’s see.
413
00:16:48,628 –> 00:16:49,388
I’m going to signature.
414
00:16:50,508 –> 00:16:51,268
There’s my signature.
415
00:16:51,708 –> 00:16:52,668
As it happens,
416
00:16:52,668 –> 00:16:56,268
our corpulent copywriter also worked for the wife
417
00:16:56,268 –> 00:16:58,828
of Michigan Attorney General Dana Nestle,
418
00:16:59,228 –> 00:17:03,308
gathering signatures for her gay rights ballot initiative.
419
00:17:03,428 –> 00:17:04,508
What about the gays?
420
00:17:04,508 –> 00:17:05,708
You screwed that one up too.
421
00:17:06,108 –> 00:17:08,108
But those signatures were bogus too.
422
00:17:08,748 –> 00:17:11,228
But Nestle didn’t do anything about that one.
423
00:17:11,628 –> 00:17:12,348
Why?
424
00:17:12,908 –> 00:17:14,348
Maybe because of this.
425
00:17:15,028 –> 00:17:17,708
Two months before Nestle announced charges against
426
00:17:17,708 –> 00:17:21,388
Freddie, the Secretary of State referred a separate
427
00:17:21,388 –> 00:17:23,068
criminal complaint to Nestle.
428
00:17:23,548 –> 00:17:26,028
This one, alleging that the campaign,
429
00:17:26,188 –> 00:17:27,788
being run by Nestle’s wife,
430
00:17:28,108 –> 00:17:32,108
was using a charity as a front to pay Freddie.
431
00:17:32,748 –> 00:17:35,788
Please, vet your vendors.
432
00:17:36,268 –> 00:17:38,988
No, charities are not required to disclose who gave
433
00:17:38,988 –> 00:17:41,548
them money or who they gave money to.
434
00:17:41,948 –> 00:17:44,588
It’s a perfect way to keep names quiet.
435
00:17:45,148 –> 00:17:48,748
But it’s illegal for the charity to be working in lockstep
436
00:17:48,908 –> 00:17:50,028
with a campaign.
437
00:17:50,428 –> 00:17:51,548
We will come for you.
438
00:17:53,708 –> 00:17:54,348
Oh, her.
439
00:17:55,388 –> 00:17:55,788
Benson.
440
00:17:55,788 –> 00:17:58,668
Oh, the court of claims ruled that Benson does have
441
00:17:58,668 –> 00:18:01,388
to turn over the documents in terms of election training.
442
00:18:02,108 –> 00:18:04,588
Benson, another dope.
443
00:18:04,828 –> 00:18:05,508
Oh, come on,
444
00:18:05,508 –> 00:18:05,948
everybody.
445
00:18:05,948 –> 00:18:06,308
Open your.
446
00:18:06,588 –> 00:18:07,228
That’s another.
447
00:18:07,228 –> 00:18:09,228
That’s going to be next month.
448
00:18:09,308 –> 00:18:09,628
It’s coming.
449
00:18:09,628 –> 00:18:10,508
Oh, it’s coming.
450
00:18:10,508 –> 00:18:11,628
Oh, it’s coming.
451
00:18:11,708 –> 00:18:12,108
It’s coming.
452
00:18:12,588 –> 00:18:13,508
So like, okay,
453
00:18:13,508 –> 00:18:14,428
what do they want?
454
00:18:15,388 –> 00:18:17,708
All internal communications with the Michigan Department
455
00:18:17,708 –> 00:18:19,668
of Attorney General involving any of its officials,
456
00:18:19,668 –> 00:18:20,108
employees,
457
00:18:20,108 –> 00:18:20,748
contracts,
458
00:18:21,068 –> 00:18:23,828
agents regarding the April 18th,
459
00:18:23,828 –> 00:18:25,228
2023.
460
00:18:27,708 –> 00:18:28,668
How long ago was that?
461
00:18:28,668 –> 00:18:30,908
Like 2 1/4 years ago?
462
00:18:31,988 –> 00:18:35,868
A 2023 criminal referral concerning the Michigan campaign
463
00:18:35,868 –> 00:18:38,588
finance complaint in the matter of the Foundation
464
00:18:38,748 –> 00:18:42,268
for Accountability and Civic Trust versus Bipartisan
465
00:18:42,268 –> 00:18:42,908
Solutions.
466
00:18:43,068 –> 00:18:45,228
Let me tell you who’s going to get who’s going to get
467
00:18:45,228 –> 00:18:45,948
subpoenaed here.
468
00:18:46,188 –> 00:18:49,308
My guess, Kornack’s going to get subpoenaed.
469
00:18:49,868 –> 00:18:51,228
Her daughter’s going to get subpoenaed.
470
00:18:51,468 –> 00:18:53,268
The insurance company’s going to get subpoenaed.
471
00:18:54,348 –> 00:18:56,028
Dana Nessa’s wife’s going to get subpoenaed.
472
00:18:56,068 –> 00:18:56,268
Oh, yeah.
473
00:18:59,628 –> 00:19:01,428
Richard Zuba is probably going to get a subpoena.
474
00:19:01,428 –> 00:19:02,508
Yeah, you’re going to get subpoenaed.
475
00:19:02,508 –> 00:19:04,588
And are we going to see any of this in the papers?
476
00:19:05,748 –> 00:19:07,668
Because this is like fucking COVID.
477
00:19:07,948 –> 00:19:10,108
You know, when I had to sue the state of Michigan,
478
00:19:10,428 –> 00:19:11,388
Gretchen Whitmer,
479
00:19:11,548 –> 00:19:12,348
Dana Nestler,
480
00:19:12,348 –> 00:19:14,828
lawyer, give me the data only to find out there’s
481
00:19:14,828 –> 00:19:15,388
no data.
482
00:19:15,628 –> 00:19:17,628
And nobody joined the lawsuit.
483
00:19:18,988 –> 00:19:20,108
Nobody really wrote the story.
484
00:19:20,108 –> 00:19:21,228
You remember how that turned out?
485
00:19:21,628 –> 00:19:24,428
So the Auditor General finds out they don’t have data.
486
00:19:24,428 –> 00:19:28,268
They lied that the deaths in the nursing homes are
487
00:19:28,268 –> 00:19:28,988
much higher.
488
00:19:29,468 –> 00:19:34,028
And the assembled press decides to go to the director
489
00:19:34,028 –> 00:19:38,188
of Health and Human Services and get fed the counter-narrative,
490
00:19:38,188 –> 00:19:39,788
how it’s all a mistake.
491
00:19:39,948 –> 00:19:43,188
He’s the auditor’s a political hack without ever seeing
492
00:19:43,188 –> 00:19:43,708
the audit.
493
00:19:43,708 –> 00:19:44,988
They just wrote it down like monkey.
494
00:19:44,988 –> 00:19:45,388
That’s amazing.
495
00:19:45,388 –> 00:19:46,428
That’s the most amazing part.
496
00:19:46,868 –> 00:19:48,108
And I got some more news.
497
00:19:49,228 –> 00:19:51,788
The health department got subpoenaed.
498
00:19:52,508 –> 00:19:54,108
for how they handled foster care,
499
00:19:54,108 –> 00:19:54,588
children,
500
00:19:54,588 –> 00:19:55,788
the abuse of children.
501
00:19:55,788 –> 00:19:56,748
They’re not looking.
502
00:19:56,748 –> 00:19:58,988
They’re covering it up is this suspicion.
503
00:19:59,148 –> 00:20:03,228
But what’s also coming are subpoenas for what happened
504
00:20:03,228 –> 00:20:04,508
in adult foster care,
505
00:20:04,588 –> 00:20:05,428
the nursing home.
506
00:20:05,628 –> 00:20:07,148
It’s all coming.
507
00:20:07,148 –> 00:20:07,788
And you remember,
508
00:20:07,788 –> 00:20:08,628
I paid $3,147.80.
509
00:20:09,068 –> 00:20:12,668
Nope, 90 cents.
510
00:20:12,828 –> 00:20:13,708
Call someone who cares.
511
00:20:14,948 –> 00:20:16,268
I’m getting that stuff.
512
00:20:16,508 –> 00:20:17,388
Here we go.
513
00:20:17,628 –> 00:20:20,428
Here we fucking go.
514
00:20:22,508 –> 00:20:22,988
You’re welcome.
515
00:20:23,708 –> 00:20:25,308
Now, next one.
516
00:20:26,668 –> 00:20:27,468
There’s more?
517
00:20:28,028 –> 00:20:28,508
Next one.
518
00:20:28,548 –> 00:20:30,348
Assam Bazi,
519
00:20:30,828 –> 00:20:36,428
the only known man who was on the international terror
520
00:20:36,428 –> 00:20:39,868
watch list to knowingly be led into America.
521
00:20:39,948 –> 00:20:40,508
They gave him,
522
00:20:40,508 –> 00:20:41,868
he came in over to Rio,
523
00:20:41,868 –> 00:20:42,668
into Brownsville,
524
00:20:42,828 –> 00:20:44,348
and they gave him tickets to Dearborn.
525
00:20:44,668 –> 00:20:48,108
How is this remotely fucking possible?
526
00:20:48,188 –> 00:20:50,428
You want to know how it’s supposed to work when you’re
527
00:20:50,428 –> 00:20:51,388
on the terror watch list?
528
00:20:52,108 –> 00:20:54,748
detained, interrogated,
529
00:20:54,988 –> 00:20:55,868
and deported.
530
00:20:56,028 –> 00:20:57,228
That’s your process.
531
00:20:58,188 –> 00:21:00,188
Now, the guy comes in,
532
00:21:00,468 –> 00:21:01,708
applies for asylum.
533
00:21:01,948 –> 00:21:03,308
He’s been ordered deported.
534
00:21:03,468 –> 00:21:09,148
The guy, he’s appealing that,
535
00:21:10,108 –> 00:21:10,428
right?
536
00:21:10,828 –> 00:21:12,028
Fucked with his tether,
537
00:21:12,268 –> 00:21:13,508
didn’t show up to his court dates.
538
00:21:13,508 –> 00:21:14,828
You’re supposed to be gone.
539
00:21:15,468 –> 00:21:18,188
So it’s now gotten to Washington.
540
00:21:18,188 –> 00:21:18,828
Okay, what?
541
00:21:20,268 –> 00:21:21,308
He’s top of the list.
542
00:21:22,028 –> 00:21:22,828
top of the list.
543
00:21:22,948 –> 00:21:23,348
And Mr.
544
00:21:23,348 –> 00:21:25,708
Bazzi, once they find you and they will,
545
00:21:26,188 –> 00:21:28,988
you will be locked up.
546
00:21:29,388 –> 00:21:31,628
And if you want to wait three or four years for your
547
00:21:32,428 –> 00:21:35,308
appeal, by all means,
548
00:21:35,308 –> 00:21:37,228
maybe they’ll expedite your court case.
549
00:21:38,108 –> 00:21:40,588
Let’s just show a little to refresh people,
550
00:21:40,588 –> 00:21:42,348
because this one’s coming.
551
00:21:42,348 –> 00:21:43,868
His name is Hassan Bazi.
552
00:21:44,028 –> 00:21:47,628
He’s listed on the terrorist watch list as a high classified,
553
00:21:47,868 –> 00:21:50,468
known, or suspected terrorist.
554
00:21:50,668 –> 00:21:52,828
Anyhow, they let him in anyway.
555
00:21:53,068 –> 00:21:54,588
He’s living here in Dearborn.
556
00:21:57,708 –> 00:21:58,668
Senor Bazi.
557
00:22:01,868 –> 00:22:04,508
Escarlitos le duff el perio disto.
558
00:22:05,468 –> 00:22:06,908
Quiro ablar contigo.
559
00:22:12,548 –> 00:22:17,068
He’s from Venezuela.
560
00:22:18,108 –> 00:22:23,068
Suspected ties to the Maduro administration there.
561
00:22:23,068 –> 00:22:24,828
That’s the socialist government,
562
00:22:24,828 –> 00:22:25,468
you know,
563
00:22:26,108 –> 00:22:27,068
and Hezbollah.
564
00:22:28,348 –> 00:22:31,068
And the guy’s got apartment buildings down there.
565
00:22:31,068 –> 00:22:31,748
He’s got yachts.
566
00:22:31,748 –> 00:22:33,268
So what were you doing financially?
567
00:22:33,268 –> 00:22:34,828
What in the world?
568
00:22:35,628 –> 00:22:36,828
is going on in this country.
569
00:22:36,828 –> 00:22:39,988
So I get a call from WJR.
570
00:22:42,188 –> 00:22:44,188
Now, if you’re here on,
571
00:22:44,188 –> 00:22:44,508
you know,
572
00:22:45,388 –> 00:22:46,508
bond, okay,
573
00:22:46,508 –> 00:22:47,868
so the parole was one thing,
574
00:22:48,588 –> 00:22:50,468
but it was adjudicated through immigration court that
575
00:22:50,468 –> 00:22:51,028
you get bond.
576
00:22:51,388 –> 00:22:51,868
It was ruled,
577
00:22:51,868 –> 00:22:53,148
no, they’re not entitled to bond.
578
00:22:53,228 –> 00:22:54,668
So anybody here on bond,
579
00:22:55,468 –> 00:22:57,148
they’re gonna pick you up too.
580
00:22:57,148 –> 00:22:57,908
You see what’s happening.
581
00:22:58,028 –> 00:23:01,308
So instead of just rehash,
582
00:23:01,308 –> 00:23:01,468
you know,
583
00:23:01,468 –> 00:23:04,988
why don’t you just play what I put on WJR
584
00:23:05,168 –> 00:23:06,608
to educate.
585
00:23:06,768 –> 00:23:08,808
We should actually know how things work.
586
00:23:08,808 –> 00:23:09,968
And let’s play it.
587
00:23:10,128 –> 00:23:12,368
Well, Joe Biden was criticized for having a welcome
588
00:23:12,368 –> 00:23:14,768
sign out for illegal migrants to come to America.
589
00:23:14,768 –> 00:23:17,568
Many given hotel rooms as they waited for hearings.
590
00:23:17,568 –> 00:23:19,088
Well, times have changed.
591
00:23:19,088 –> 00:23:21,528
Donald Trump is sending a message of don’t even think
592
00:23:21,528 –> 00:23:21,968
about it.
593
00:23:22,528 –> 00:23:25,328
With the border shutdown and illegal migrants looking
594
00:23:25,328 –> 00:23:28,448
at deportation or detention centers like Alligator
595
00:23:28,448 –> 00:23:29,248
Alcatraz,
596
00:23:29,408 –> 00:23:32,448
now we have an ICE memo authorizing agents to reroute
597
00:23:32,448 –> 00:23:36,048
non-citizens to any third country that promises no
598
00:23:36,048 –> 00:23:37,808
persecution or torture,
599
00:23:37,808 –> 00:23:41,208
bypassing the traditional 24-hour notice and the long-standing
600
00:23:41,208 –> 00:23:44,048
assumption that people are removed to their homelands.
601
00:23:44,048 –> 00:23:46,448
Joining us now is Charlie LeDuff,
602
00:23:46,448 –> 00:23:49,888
a longtime journalist and the host of the No BS News
603
00:23:49,888 –> 00:23:50,128
Hour.
604
00:23:50,128 –> 00:23:50,488
Good morning,
605
00:23:50,488 –> 00:23:50,688
Charlie.
606
00:23:50,688 –> 00:23:51,088
How are you?
607
00:23:51,688 –> 00:23:51,928
I’m well.
608
00:23:51,968 –> 00:23:52,448
How are you doing,
609
00:23:52,448 –> 00:23:52,848
Kevin?
610
00:23:52,848 –> 00:23:53,488
I’m doing well.
611
00:23:53,488 –> 00:23:55,088
Thanks for giving us some time.
612
00:23:55,328 –> 00:23:57,328
Is this a bridge too far,
613
00:23:57,328 –> 00:23:57,728
maybe?
614
00:23:57,728 –> 00:24:00,728
Or is this something that we should have expected?
615
00:24:00,728 –> 00:24:02,208
And is it something that’s necessary?
616
00:24:02,848 –> 00:24:03,488
Well, yeah,
617
00:24:03,488 –> 00:24:04,528
I wrote stuff down for you.
618
00:24:04,528 –> 00:24:06,448
But in my career,
619
00:24:07,248 –> 00:24:08,768
this isn’t actually new.
620
00:24:09,008 –> 00:24:10,168
Trump did it the first term.
621
00:24:10,168 –> 00:24:11,248
He’s doing it this term.
622
00:24:11,488 –> 00:24:12,448
Biden did it.
623
00:24:12,448 –> 00:24:14,048
He took people from Cuba,
624
00:24:14,328 –> 00:24:15,128
Venezuela,
625
00:24:15,248 –> 00:24:16,288
Nicaragua,
626
00:24:17,248 –> 00:24:19,168
and sent them to Mexico.
627
00:24:19,168 –> 00:24:19,648
So
628
00:24:20,408 –> 00:24:21,248
This is always,
629
00:24:21,248 –> 00:24:23,248
if you think about what’s going on here,
630
00:24:23,248 –> 00:24:24,928
let’s take Abrego Garcia,
631
00:24:24,928 –> 00:24:25,248
right?
632
00:24:25,248 –> 00:24:26,968
This is the guy that’s ordered deported.
633
00:24:26,968 –> 00:24:27,488
You’re gone.
634
00:24:27,488 –> 00:24:28,528
You got your due process.
635
00:24:29,168 –> 00:24:34,208
Then he claims fear of torture or death,
636
00:24:34,208 –> 00:24:34,488
right?
637
00:24:34,488 –> 00:24:35,568
He can’t go home.
638
00:24:35,568 –> 00:24:37,968
So he’s ordered to a third country.
639
00:24:38,448 –> 00:24:40,368
but they made the mistake of sending him back to his
640
00:24:40,368 –> 00:24:41,088
own country.
641
00:24:41,328 –> 00:24:45,648
So he could have been sent to Guantanamo or Guam or
642
00:24:45,648 –> 00:24:49,208
Venezuela so that you can see what’s going on.
643
00:24:49,488 –> 00:24:51,648
If this wasn’t allowed,
644
00:24:52,048 –> 00:24:56,048
then people couldn’t be deported at all if they had,
645
00:24:56,128 –> 00:24:56,448
you know,
646
00:24:56,448 –> 00:24:59,568
it was ruled a credible fear of returning someplace.
647
00:25:00,608 –> 00:25:02,528
Charlie, six hours notice.
648
00:25:02,528 –> 00:25:05,248
I says people will still have a chance to talk to a
649
00:25:05,248 –> 00:25:08,128
lawyer, but is that realistic when you only have six
650
00:25:08,128 –> 00:25:11,808
hours and maybe no language skills or no local ties?
651
00:25:12,448 –> 00:25:14,928
Well, it’s realistic because those planes will take
652
00:25:14,928 –> 00:25:16,128
off in six hours,
653
00:25:16,128 –> 00:25:16,448
right?
654
00:25:16,488 –> 00:25:18,848
I mean, you’re asking me if it’s humane,
655
00:25:18,848 –> 00:25:20,528
I’ll leave it to the public,
656
00:25:20,608 –> 00:25:22,728
but the law is the law.
657
00:25:22,728 –> 00:25:25,248
What you’re seeing here is this,
658
00:25:25,328 –> 00:25:26,048
alligator,
659
00:25:26,208 –> 00:25:27,488
let’s go back here.
660
00:25:27,648 –> 00:25:29,408
What did we see in the bill?
661
00:25:30,128 –> 00:25:33,808
$170 billion for immigration.
662
00:25:34,128 –> 00:25:37,008
They quadrupled Homeland Security’s budget.
663
00:25:37,648 –> 00:25:40,048
So we’re going to get a lot of holding facilities,
664
00:25:40,048 –> 00:25:43,968
a lot of like private prison companies,
665
00:25:44,608 –> 00:25:45,888
Alligator Alley,
666
00:25:46,048 –> 00:25:47,928
now third country deportations.
667
00:25:47,928 –> 00:25:49,168
What’s really going on,
668
00:25:49,168 –> 00:25:51,088
just talking to some people in Washington,
669
00:25:51,968 –> 00:25:55,288
is this is to get you to self-deport.
670
00:25:55,928 –> 00:25:56,208
Right?
671
00:25:56,208 –> 00:25:58,288
So these eight guys that got shipped,
672
00:25:58,888 –> 00:25:59,888
they’re from like Laos,
673
00:26:00,208 –> 00:26:01,968
Vietnam, Myanmar,
674
00:26:02,048 –> 00:26:03,568
Cuba, Mexico,
675
00:26:04,128 –> 00:26:05,728
murder, robbery,
676
00:26:05,808 –> 00:26:06,368
rape.
677
00:26:07,168 –> 00:26:08,048
We want you out.
678
00:26:08,048 –> 00:26:09,488
We’re going to hunt you down,
679
00:26:09,488 –> 00:26:11,248
then you’re going to go to Sudan.
680
00:26:11,248 –> 00:26:14,368
If you leave as you were ordered,
681
00:26:14,528 –> 00:26:15,328
you were ordered.
682
00:26:15,368 –> 00:26:17,408
These are like final deportation orders.
683
00:26:17,888 –> 00:26:20,688
Maybe this is a good way to get people to go.
684
00:26:21,168 –> 00:26:22,248
That’s the thought anyway.
685
00:26:23,448 –> 00:26:26,928
What is the latest on this idea of sending people to
686
00:26:26,968 –> 00:26:29,848
an El Salvador prison when some of them haven’t even
687
00:26:29,848 –> 00:26:30,848
committed a crime?
688
00:26:31,888 –> 00:26:33,008
Well, I don’t know if that’s true,
689
00:26:33,008 –> 00:26:33,208
Jamie.
690
00:26:33,208 –> 00:26:35,168
I mean, I hear a lot of stuff,
691
00:26:35,248 –> 00:26:36,688
you know,
692
00:26:36,688 –> 00:26:37,248
in media,
693
00:26:37,248 –> 00:26:39,568
but none of that’s very clear to me.
694
00:26:39,568 –> 00:26:40,448
Let’s put it this way.
695
00:26:41,328 –> 00:26:42,928
You enter the country illegally.
696
00:26:43,248 –> 00:26:43,968
That’s a crime.
697
00:26:44,528 –> 00:26:46,608
Isn’t that a civil infraction?
698
00:26:46,768 –> 00:26:47,808
No, it’s not.
699
00:26:47,808 –> 00:26:48,928
It’s a federal crime.
700
00:26:48,928 –> 00:26:52,448
It’s a misdemeanor your first time and it’s a felony.
701
00:26:52,448 –> 00:26:54,048
That’s six months in jail.
702
00:26:55,008 –> 00:26:55,688
Your second time,
703
00:26:55,688 –> 00:26:57,328
it’s two years.
704
00:26:57,648 –> 00:27:01,008
Now, if you just come in,
705
00:27:01,168 –> 00:27:03,568
you’re already eligible for deportation,
706
00:27:03,568 –> 00:27:03,888
right?
707
00:27:04,288 –> 00:27:06,208
So what’s happened under Biden,
708
00:27:06,208 –> 00:27:08,008
the cartel figured it out.
709
00:27:08,008 –> 00:27:08,888
Everybody figured it out.
710
00:27:09,088 –> 00:27:09,968
You claim asylum.
711
00:27:10,928 –> 00:27:12,368
What used to happen
712
00:27:12,688 –> 00:27:15,408
before the welcome mat was thrown out was you were
713
00:27:15,408 –> 00:27:16,928
to be detained.
714
00:27:17,648 –> 00:27:22,208
The Immigration and Nationality Act of 1952,
715
00:27:22,208 –> 00:27:23,728
if you claim asylum,
716
00:27:23,728 –> 00:27:24,688
you’re to be held.
717
00:27:25,328 –> 00:27:28,328
You’re supposed to be adjudicated within 45 days,
718
00:27:28,328 –> 00:27:30,928
your final business within 180 days.
719
00:27:31,648 –> 00:27:32,848
They were granting parole.
720
00:27:33,408 –> 00:27:34,528
Parole was supposed to be,
721
00:27:34,528 –> 00:27:35,568
you claimed asylum,
722
00:27:35,568 –> 00:27:36,768
you’ll have appendicitis,
723
00:27:36,768 –> 00:27:38,128
we parole you to the hospital,
724
00:27:38,128 –> 00:27:38,768
they take care of you,
725
00:27:39,008 –> 00:27:40,008
you come back.
726
00:27:40,608 –> 00:27:41,208
It wasn’t,
727
00:27:41,408 –> 00:27:44,288
we parole you into the interior and we wait eight
728
00:27:44,288 –> 00:27:44,688
years.
729
00:27:45,008 –> 00:27:48,128
So again, what you’re seeing is a push to,
730
00:27:48,368 –> 00:27:49,568
we’re going to detain you.
731
00:27:49,888 –> 00:27:52,768
How would you like to be detained while you wait for
732
00:27:52,768 –> 00:27:53,888
your asylum case?
733
00:27:53,968 –> 00:27:54,688
So again,
734
00:27:55,088 –> 00:27:58,368
The push is you go home by yourself and we won’t have
735
00:27:58,368 –> 00:27:59,168
to deal with this.
736
00:27:59,568 –> 00:28:00,528
Yeah, I think you’re right,
737
00:28:00,528 –> 00:28:03,328
Charlie, in that regard because everyone comes over,
738
00:28:03,328 –> 00:28:06,528
they claim asylum and they wait for a hearing.
739
00:28:07,088 –> 00:28:08,328
I don’t know the exact numbers,
740
00:28:08,328 –> 00:28:10,328
but I think more than 90%
741
00:28:10,688 –> 00:28:14,128
of those who claim asylum fail and they’re ordered
742
00:28:14,368 –> 00:28:14,928
to leave.
743
00:28:15,168 –> 00:28:19,248
I believe that we’ve offered people $1,000 to self-deport
744
00:28:19,488 –> 00:28:20,048
and leave.
745
00:28:20,048 –> 00:28:21,648
It seems to me like this is a message.
746
00:28:22,048 –> 00:28:24,448
You’re not going to win your asylum case.
747
00:28:24,528 –> 00:28:26,368
We’re offering you $1,000 to leave.
748
00:28:26,368 –> 00:28:28,368
If you don’t want to take $1,000 and leave,
749
00:28:28,448 –> 00:28:31,088
then you’re probably not going to like the way we
750
00:28:31,088 –> 00:28:32,928
send you home or to another country.
751
00:28:33,328 –> 00:28:33,648
Well, yeah,
752
00:28:33,648 –> 00:28:35,408
you’re going to look that you’re going to wait.
753
00:28:35,408 –> 00:28:36,048
So, you know,
754
00:28:36,088 –> 00:28:37,248
when we talk about,
755
00:28:38,688 –> 00:28:39,008
you know,
756
00:28:39,008 –> 00:28:41,288
the rights of illegal immigrants,
757
00:28:41,288 –> 00:28:42,088
not legal immigrants,
758
00:28:42,088 –> 00:28:42,528
but illegal,
759
00:28:42,928 –> 00:28:45,408
theirs aren’t exactly the same as ours,
760
00:28:45,408 –> 00:28:47,168
like your First Amendment.
761
00:28:47,688 –> 00:28:48,728
If you’re an illegal,
762
00:28:48,728 –> 00:28:53,088
you can’t express or consort with terror organizations
763
00:28:53,088 –> 00:28:54,848
or suspected terror organizations.
764
00:28:55,088 –> 00:28:57,328
You can’t you don’t have Second Amendment rights.
765
00:28:57,328 –> 00:28:58,368
You can’t carry a gun.
766
00:29:00,048 –> 00:29:00,608
You.
767
00:29:02,128 –> 00:29:05,088
don’t have due process in the Fifth Amendment because
768
00:29:05,088 –> 00:29:07,568
you can be deprived of your liberty because of your
769
00:29:07,568 –> 00:29:08,688
immigration status.
770
00:29:09,008 –> 00:29:10,048
And the Eighth Amendment,
771
00:29:10,288 –> 00:29:13,848
you don’t get bail if you’re an illegal immigrant.
772
00:29:13,848 –> 00:29:15,968
And here’s the one for everybody to know in Michigan,
773
00:29:15,968 –> 00:29:17,008
the Fourth Amendment,
774
00:29:17,008 –> 00:29:19,408
which is your search and seizure rights.
775
00:29:19,768 –> 00:29:20,368
Did you know?
776
00:29:21,608 –> 00:29:24,528
Because of the Immigration and Nationality Act of 1952,
777
00:29:24,528 –> 00:29:28,448
there’s something called a 100-mile border zone that
778
00:29:28,448 –> 00:29:30,848
gives immigration authorities the power to set up
779
00:29:30,848 –> 00:29:31,648
checkpoints
780
00:29:32,048 –> 00:29:36,048
stop and search individual and vehicles and make arrests
781
00:29:36,048 –> 00:29:39,648
without a warning based on immigration suspicions.
782
00:29:40,168 –> 00:29:44,288
Michigan is unique in the fact that all of our territory
783
00:29:44,688 –> 00:29:48,128
is within 100 miles of an international border.
784
00:29:48,768 –> 00:29:53,568
So if you go to Texas or Arizona or New Mexico or California,
785
00:29:54,128 –> 00:29:55,488
you’ll see these checkpoints.
786
00:29:55,488 –> 00:29:56,448
I’ve been stopped at them.
787
00:29:56,608 –> 00:30:00,048
They could do that in this state in Lansing.
788
00:30:02,608 –> 00:30:05,168
Charlie, you got your ear to the ground in Detroit.
789
00:30:05,168 –> 00:30:07,248
How do you think this plays with everyday people here?
790
00:30:07,248 –> 00:30:09,248
We have the election for mayor coming up,
791
00:30:09,248 –> 00:30:09,928
and I don’t know how much,
792
00:30:10,048 –> 00:30:10,528
you know,
793
00:30:11,248 –> 00:30:13,328
that will be an issue in the mayor’s race,
794
00:30:13,328 –> 00:30:14,088
but what do you think?
795
00:30:15,088 –> 00:30:16,128
You know, it’s interesting,
796
00:30:16,128 –> 00:30:16,528
Wade.
797
00:30:17,728 –> 00:30:19,248
We’re not a sanctuary city,
798
00:30:19,328 –> 00:30:20,208
but if you look it up,
799
00:30:20,208 –> 00:30:21,568
we’re a welcoming city.
800
00:30:22,048 –> 00:30:23,968
I don’t know what that means exactly.
801
00:30:24,368 –> 00:30:26,048
Duggan’s getting mixed messages.
802
00:30:26,808 –> 00:30:30,288
what I when I can’t I the polls have been so bad over
803
00:30:30,288 –> 00:30:32,968
the years that I don’t really put much stock in them
804
00:30:32,968 –> 00:30:35,248
but you know that that Gallup poll when they said
805
00:30:36,248 –> 00:30:37,048
about 80%
806
00:30:37,048 –> 00:30:40,288
of Americans thinks immigration’s good for the country
807
00:30:40,288 –> 00:30:44,728
well of course it is I don’t see but if you worded
808
00:30:44,728 –> 00:30:45,128
it different
809
00:30:45,576 –> 00:30:46,456
You look at it this way,
810
00:30:47,336 –> 00:30:51,416
32% of Americans think all illegals should be gone.
811
00:30:52,056 –> 00:30:55,656
Only 16% say no illegals should be gone.
812
00:30:55,976 –> 00:30:56,736
And the majority,
813
00:30:56,736 –> 00:30:57,576
about 50,
814
00:30:57,576 –> 00:31:00,976
51, 52, say some should be gone.
815
00:31:00,976 –> 00:31:02,536
It depends what they did.
816
00:31:02,536 –> 00:31:03,456
So if you’ve been working,
817
00:31:03,456 –> 00:31:04,376
your name’s David,
818
00:31:04,376 –> 00:31:05,096
a friend of mine,
819
00:31:05,416 –> 00:31:07,336
works in the great orchards of California.
820
00:31:07,816 –> 00:31:09,336
Been here 25 years,
821
00:31:09,656 –> 00:31:10,416
he’s got kids,
822
00:31:10,416 –> 00:31:11,576
he’s got grandkids,
823
00:31:11,576 –> 00:31:12,256
a good dude,
824
00:31:12,256 –> 00:31:13,096
never committed crime,
825
00:31:13,096 –> 00:31:13,976
paid taxes.
826
00:31:14,456 –> 00:31:16,616
There’s got to be some way to make them pay a fine,
827
00:31:17,096 –> 00:31:20,056
give them some kind of permanent residency with no
828
00:31:20,376 –> 00:31:21,576
chance of citizenship,
829
00:31:21,576 –> 00:31:22,776
but we’re not running you out.
830
00:31:22,776 –> 00:31:24,976
I think that’s where we’re at,
831
00:31:24,976 –> 00:31:27,816
and I think probably that’s where Detroit’s at.
832
00:31:27,976 –> 00:31:30,056
That’s just me guessing.
833
00:31:30,296 –> 00:31:30,896
Charlie LaDuff,
834
00:31:31,016 –> 00:31:31,896
NoBS News Hour.
835
00:31:31,896 –> 00:31:33,416
Thanks so much for your time and expertise.
836
00:31:33,416 –> 00:31:34,136
We appreciate it.
837
00:31:34,536 –> 00:31:35,016
Always love it,
838
00:31:35,016 –> 00:31:35,416
brother.
839
00:31:37,776 –> 00:31:39,016
And did you know that,
840
00:31:39,416 –> 00:31:41,416
David, you can look it up.
841
00:31:41,416 –> 00:31:42,376
It’s, I went,
842
00:31:42,376 –> 00:31:42,616
you know,
843
00:31:42,696 –> 00:31:43,256
working.
844
00:31:44,056 –> 00:31:44,936
in the gray portraits,
845
00:31:46,056 –> 00:31:48,056
worked under somebody else’s social security all these
846
00:31:48,056 –> 00:31:48,256
years.
847
00:31:48,256 –> 00:31:49,736
He paid taxes.
848
00:31:49,816 –> 00:31:51,336
He’s not going to get these taxes.
849
00:31:51,656 –> 00:31:55,496
But just the fact that he used somebody else’s social
850
00:31:55,496 –> 00:31:56,136
security number,
851
00:31:56,136 –> 00:31:56,816
that’s a felony.
852
00:31:56,816 –> 00:31:58,136
That’s falsifying documents.
853
00:31:58,136 –> 00:32:00,056
That’s grounds for deportation.
854
00:32:00,616 –> 00:32:03,936
So we got a lot of thinking to do.
855
00:32:03,936 –> 00:32:04,616
And again,
856
00:32:04,616 –> 00:32:07,256
I just don’t think the media deals straight with this
857
00:32:07,256 –> 00:32:07,496
issue.
858
00:32:07,496 –> 00:32:08,056
Do you, Mark?
859
00:32:09,336 –> 00:32:10,616
No, not at all.
860
00:32:11,016 –> 00:32:12,136
You can see it in her question.
861
00:32:12,616 –> 00:32:14,456
Isn’t that just a civil infraction?
862
00:32:14,776 –> 00:32:15,176
Yeah, well,
863
00:32:15,176 –> 00:32:15,376
you know,
864
00:32:15,896 –> 00:32:16,536
God bless her.
865
00:32:16,536 –> 00:32:17,576
Jamie’s cool,
866
00:32:17,816 –> 00:32:18,736
really smart.
867
00:32:19,336 –> 00:32:20,696
And, you know,
868
00:32:20,696 –> 00:32:22,536
she can feel however she feels.
869
00:32:22,536 –> 00:32:24,096
This is the greatest country in the world.
870
00:32:25,656 –> 00:32:28,536
No, I think she’s confusing people that like overstay
871
00:32:28,536 –> 00:32:29,496
their visa that,
872
00:32:29,656 –> 00:32:31,416
like Canadians that’ll come over that don’t really
873
00:32:31,416 –> 00:32:31,896
need a visa.
874
00:32:31,896 –> 00:32:32,696
You can’t do that.
875
00:32:32,936 –> 00:32:33,536
You got to go.
876
00:32:33,536 –> 00:32:37,336
And then you won’t be let back in if you overstay your
877
00:32:37,336 –> 00:32:37,616
visa.
878
00:32:37,616 –> 00:32:38,936
And that’s millions of people too.
879
00:32:39,176 –> 00:32:41,816
But where she’s getting that is from the media.
880
00:32:41,936 –> 00:32:42,936
Where’s the media getting it?
881
00:32:42,936 –> 00:32:44,376
They don’t know what they’re talking about.
882
00:32:44,536 –> 00:32:45,496
They get it from Whitmer.
883
00:32:45,736 –> 00:32:48,056
We played a clip of her recently on the show where
884
00:32:48,056 –> 00:32:49,176
she’s on The View.
885
00:32:49,496 –> 00:32:50,936
Oh, it was with Cabrera,
886
00:32:50,936 –> 00:32:53,096
the vice president of the National Border Patrol Council.
887
00:32:53,576 –> 00:32:54,056
Civil.
888
00:32:54,056 –> 00:32:54,656
No, it isn’t.
889
00:32:55,176 –> 00:32:56,216
It’s a federal crime.
890
00:32:56,616 –> 00:32:57,736
Misdemeanor first time,
891
00:32:57,896 –> 00:32:59,016
felony second time,
892
00:32:59,336 –> 00:32:59,736
period.
893
00:32:59,736 –> 00:33:03,096
And anything you’re doing here is probably a federal
894
00:33:03,096 –> 00:33:03,576
crime.
895
00:33:03,576 –> 00:33:05,976
You can’t work on somebody else’s social security number.
896
00:33:06,536 –> 00:33:08,176
So that’s just,
897
00:33:08,176 –> 00:33:09,816
I hope you all learned something from that.
898
00:33:09,896 –> 00:33:12,616
Now, back to another crime.
899
00:33:13,176 –> 00:33:13,736
I can’t even,
900
00:33:13,816 –> 00:33:15,016
can you blow that up for me?
901
00:33:15,616 –> 00:33:16,656
That’s as big as I can make it.
902
00:33:16,776 –> 00:33:17,416
I can read it for you.
903
00:33:17,976 –> 00:33:20,936
Okay, so this is the communications director for Mayor
904
00:33:20,936 –> 00:33:21,736
Mike Duggan,
905
00:33:21,896 –> 00:33:24,696
who wants to be your governor,
906
00:33:24,856 –> 00:33:25,416
Michigan.
907
00:33:25,496 –> 00:33:26,096
Go ahead, Mark.
908
00:33:26,616 –> 00:33:28,416
John Roche wrote on Facebook,
909
00:33:28,416 –> 00:33:32,576
in 2014, Detroit had 47,000 vacant land bank homes
910
00:33:32,576 –> 00:33:33,976
and little hoped things would change.
911
00:33:34,216 –> 00:33:35,496
On this day in 2016,
912
00:33:35,496 –> 00:33:38,456
we marked the milestone of 10,000 demos completed
913
00:33:38,456 –> 00:33:40,936
in just two years using federal funding.
914
00:33:41,336 –> 00:33:41,816
Yesterday,
915
00:33:41,816 –> 00:33:44,376
we marked the 8,000th demo promised and completed
916
00:33:44,376 –> 00:33:45,736
using city bond funds.
917
00:33:46,216 –> 00:33:47,336
In between those dates,
918
00:33:47,336 –> 00:33:50,496
thousands more dangerous vacant homes have been removed
919
00:33:50,496 –> 00:33:52,976
and more than 12,000 have been fully renovated and
920
00:33:52,976 –> 00:33:55,336
reoccupied through the land bank sales programs.
921
00:33:55,656 –> 00:33:58,456
And property values have doubled or even tripled across
922
00:33:58,456 –> 00:33:58,936
the city.
923
00:33:59,176 –> 00:34:00,536
By the end of Mayor Duggan’s term,
924
00:34:00,536 –> 00:34:01,416
at the end of this year,
925
00:34:01,416 –> 00:34:04,336
the Detroit Land Bank will have only 1,000 vacant
926
00:34:04,336 –> 00:34:06,536
homes left in its inventory and
927
00:34:07,096 –> 00:34:10,616
All of them will be in the pipeline for sale and renovation.
928
00:34:10,616 –> 00:34:12,616
The mass demolition of vacant homes in Detroit will
929
00:34:12,616 –> 00:34:13,496
be a thing of the past.
930
00:34:13,816 –> 00:34:16,976
All the next mayor will have to deal with are vacant
931
00:34:16,976 –> 00:34:18,616
homes that are privately owned.
932
00:34:19,576 –> 00:34:19,976
Wow.
933
00:34:21,176 –> 00:34:24,256
Why do you say wow and why are you laughing?
934
00:34:25,176 –> 00:34:27,176
Because I’ve seen your reporting.
935
00:34:27,656 –> 00:34:30,136
And I love this idea that the next mayor,
936
00:34:30,136 –> 00:34:31,736
the only thing he’s going to have to deal with are
937
00:34:32,536 –> 00:34:34,816
making homes that are privately owned and maybe a
938
00:34:34,816 –> 00:34:35,736
little debt problem,
939
00:34:36,296 –> 00:34:37,816
maybe a little money flow problem.
940
00:34:38,656 –> 00:34:40,056
Because we fucked it all away.
941
00:34:40,056 –> 00:34:40,336
Yeah.
942
00:34:41,096 –> 00:34:43,016
Because you had a grand jury here.
943
00:34:43,896 –> 00:34:47,336
because we now are discovering that Northland got ground
944
00:34:47,336 –> 00:34:48,696
up and thrown into the city.
945
00:34:48,936 –> 00:34:50,616
Could this be a preemptive strike?
946
00:34:50,936 –> 00:34:53,616
Could this be that the Democratic Governors Association
947
00:34:53,616 –> 00:34:54,616
is coming after you?
948
00:34:55,416 –> 00:34:57,016
Okay, here’s what’s interesting.
949
00:34:57,016 –> 00:34:58,056
Here’s why Ken’s laughing.
950
00:34:58,376 –> 00:35:00,936
The 10,000th demo with the federal money.
951
00:35:01,096 –> 00:35:03,256
That’s interesting because
952
00:35:03,816 –> 00:35:07,816
I did a story on the 10,000th demo and they tried to
953
00:35:07,816 –> 00:35:09,336
sue me for defamation.
954
00:35:09,336 –> 00:35:11,976
I have it in my computer.
955
00:35:11,976 –> 00:35:14,296
We’ll bring it up when this comes to a head.
956
00:35:14,616 –> 00:35:20,056
Let’s start with the 10,000th demo back in 2016.
957
00:35:23,256 –> 00:35:25,296
Know how we’ve been telling you about dugging,
958
00:35:25,296 –> 00:35:26,536
his demolitions,
959
00:35:26,696 –> 00:35:27,736
and his dirt drama?
960
00:35:27,896 –> 00:35:31,176
Trucking costs went up because we’re demanding prompt
961
00:35:31,736 –> 00:35:33,256
service of clean fill.
962
00:35:33,256 –> 00:35:35,176
The worst issue was the fill,
963
00:35:35,256 –> 00:35:38,496
and it was the trucking expense to bring dirt in from
964
00:35:38,496 –> 00:35:39,976
30 or 40 miles away.
965
00:35:40,216 –> 00:35:42,376
So what the mayor seems to be saying is the cost of
966
00:35:42,376 –> 00:35:44,696
demolitions went up because of good,
967
00:35:44,936 –> 00:35:46,216
clean dirt.
968
00:35:54,536 –> 00:35:56,296
That’s our four inches of topsoil.
969
00:35:56,296 –> 00:35:56,936
How do you like it?
970
00:35:56,936 –> 00:35:59,096
What do you know about the four inches of topsoil?
971
00:35:59,176 –> 00:36:00,056
I know about it,
972
00:36:00,056 –> 00:36:01,496
man, because I’m from the wood,
973
00:36:01,496 –> 00:36:01,896
man.
974
00:36:01,896 –> 00:36:03,096
I know I’m educated.
975
00:36:03,096 –> 00:36:04,216
None of them have it.
976
00:36:05,336 –> 00:36:06,856
Not a single house.
977
00:36:06,856 –> 00:36:08,056
That’s not even topsoil,
978
00:36:08,056 –> 00:36:08,176
huh?
979
00:36:09,816 –> 00:36:10,536
No, it’s not.
980
00:36:11,176 –> 00:36:12,376
It’s rocks and clay.
981
00:36:18,296 –> 00:36:20,536
Back when Mayor Dave was doing the demos,
982
00:36:20,536 –> 00:36:22,536
there was no dirt drama.
983
00:36:23,096 –> 00:36:23,816
Back then,
984
00:36:23,816 –> 00:36:27,136
the law said that the whole hole had to be filled
985
00:36:27,136 –> 00:36:27,816
with dirt.
986
00:36:28,456 –> 00:36:29,336
Nice dirt.
987
00:36:29,736 –> 00:36:32,536
No crappy bits of concrete or brick dirt.
988
00:36:33,336 –> 00:36:34,856
But then Detroit went broke.
989
00:36:35,256 –> 00:36:38,296
We got an emergency manager and a new mayor.
990
00:36:38,776 –> 00:36:40,616
And then the dirt law got changed.
991
00:36:41,096 –> 00:36:43,936
Now, you could throw crappy bits of brick and concrete
992
00:36:43,936 –> 00:36:44,696
in the holes.
993
00:36:45,096 –> 00:36:48,376
Just make sure the top three feet was clean fill.
994
00:36:49,016 –> 00:36:51,416
That was supposed to save us a lot of money.
995
00:36:51,896 –> 00:36:53,176
But somehow it didn’t.
996
00:36:53,496 –> 00:36:54,936
And Mike blames the dirt.
997
00:36:55,496 –> 00:36:56,536
But how, Mike,
998
00:36:56,776 –> 00:36:58,456
when you’re using less dirt?
999
00:36:59,176 –> 00:37:00,856
Gotta bring in good,
1000
00:37:00,936 –> 00:37:04,296
clean soil from far away.
1001
00:37:07,176 –> 00:37:07,256
Uh-oh.
1002
00:37:08,176 –> 00:37:09,656
questionable contracts,
1003
00:37:09,816 –> 00:37:11,656
skyrocketing prices,
1004
00:37:11,976 –> 00:37:13,656
your tax dollars.
1005
00:37:14,136 –> 00:37:18,216
And now Mike’s got his own full-blown federal investigation.
1006
00:37:21,576 –> 00:37:24,776
It’s unclear if the city under Duggan ever even followed
1007
00:37:24,776 –> 00:37:26,616
the three feet of clean fill law.
1008
00:37:27,136 –> 00:37:28,696
And here’s where it gets weirder.
1009
00:37:29,256 –> 00:37:30,456
Mike’s top lawyer,
1010
00:37:30,616 –> 00:37:31,896
Melvin Hollowell,
1011
00:37:32,216 –> 00:37:35,896
is asking the city council to change the law to a new
1012
00:37:36,056 –> 00:37:37,976
6 inches of dirt law.
1013
00:37:38,376 –> 00:37:41,576
And he wants to make the law retroactive.
1014
00:37:42,136 –> 00:37:42,856
That’s right.
1015
00:37:43,176 –> 00:37:45,896
Melvin wants to go back in time and change the law
1016
00:37:45,896 –> 00:37:46,696
to, quote,
1017
00:37:47,016 –> 00:37:50,056
avoid any unintended consequences.
1018
00:37:50,776 –> 00:37:53,976
I bet there’s 1,000 guys in the county jail dreaming
1019
00:37:53,976 –> 00:37:58,056
of a retroactive law to avoid any unintended consequences.
1020
00:37:58,376 –> 00:38:01,136
We reached out to his honor and his demolition experts.
1021
00:38:01,536 –> 00:38:02,536
They wouldn’t speak to us,
1022
00:38:02,856 –> 00:38:03,496
but watch.
1023
00:38:03,896 –> 00:38:04,856
It’s pretty funny.
1024
00:38:05,976 –> 00:38:08,536
How many holes have not been properly filled?
1025
00:38:08,536 –> 00:38:09,856
You all went on the record,
1026
00:38:09,856 –> 00:38:10,536
on camera,
1027
00:38:10,536 –> 00:38:11,696
told the people of Detroit…
1028
00:38:11,696 –> 00:38:12,056
Charlotte,
1029
00:38:12,056 –> 00:38:13,656
the questions in writing.
1030
00:38:13,656 –> 00:38:15,616
Because you put dirt in an answer in writing.
1031
00:38:15,616 –> 00:38:16,616
You didn’t put dirt in there.
1032
00:38:17,376 –> 00:38:18,336
I wrote my questions down.
1033
00:38:18,336 –> 00:38:20,536
And we’ll answer in writing.
1034
00:38:20,776 –> 00:38:22,376
Yeah, let me give them to you on the record.
1035
00:38:22,856 –> 00:38:25,496
Why don’t the holes have three feet of dirt as required
1036
00:38:25,496 –> 00:38:25,976
by law?
1037
00:38:27,836 –> 00:38:30,076
What is the estimated cost going to be?
1038
00:38:31,756 –> 00:38:33,676
Did the city break its own laws?
1039
00:38:35,276 –> 00:38:35,756
Pool boy.
1040
00:38:36,636 –> 00:38:36,956
Mr.
1041
00:38:36,956 –> 00:38:40,636
Farkas, what’s up with the dirt?
1042
00:38:41,196 –> 00:38:42,156
Put it in writing.
1043
00:38:43,596 –> 00:38:44,356
Try and deliver it.
1044
00:38:44,636 –> 00:38:45,436
What’s up with the dirt?
1045
00:38:49,076 –> 00:38:49,876
What is it that your name?
1046
00:38:50,636 –> 00:38:51,676
Melvin Hallowell.
1047
00:38:51,916 –> 00:38:55,156
you can’t hit me up on Hallowell because he is not
1048
00:38:55,676 –> 00:38:55,916
here.
1049
00:38:56,116 –> 00:38:56,516
Where is it?
1050
00:38:56,516 –> 00:38:58,636
I keep sending him messages and calls.
1051
00:38:58,636 –> 00:38:59,716
It’s a public servant.
1052
00:38:59,716 –> 00:39:00,956
He’s not running for office.
1053
00:39:01,356 –> 00:39:01,916
Yes, sir.
1054
00:39:02,236 –> 00:39:02,876
He’s hiding?
1055
00:39:05,596 –> 00:39:08,316
I asked for the information from your office.
1056
00:39:08,316 –> 00:39:09,916
I’m sure you’ve seen it,
1057
00:39:09,916 –> 00:39:10,876
so would you have it,
1058
00:39:10,876 –> 00:39:11,116
sir?
1059
00:39:11,476 –> 00:39:12,956
You’ve got to put your questions in writing.
1060
00:39:13,036 –> 00:39:13,676
They are.
1061
00:39:13,676 –> 00:39:14,876
Here’s the answer.
1062
00:39:14,876 –> 00:39:16,316
It says, come get it two days ago.
1063
00:39:16,316 –> 00:39:16,956
I don’t have it,
1064
00:39:16,956 –> 00:39:18,236
so it’s been put in writing.
1065
00:39:18,476 –> 00:39:19,556
So the answer is,
1066
00:39:19,556 –> 00:39:20,156
where is it?
1067
00:39:21,516 –> 00:39:22,796
You have to put your questions in writing,
1068
00:39:22,796 –> 00:39:23,996
and we’ll respond in writing.
1069
00:39:26,676 –> 00:39:27,236
Where is it?
1070
00:39:27,236 –> 00:39:28,316
That’s it right there.
1071
00:39:28,316 –> 00:39:29,116
That’s the writing.
1072
00:39:29,116 –> 00:39:29,996
Where’s the information?
1073
00:39:30,196 –> 00:39:30,556
If you said,
1074
00:39:30,556 –> 00:39:30,876
hey, look,
1075
00:39:30,876 –> 00:39:32,716
I’m just going to turn that homework in a couple of
1076
00:39:32,716 –> 00:39:33,076
days later,
1077
00:39:33,076 –> 00:39:33,676
don’t worry about it.
1078
00:39:33,876 –> 00:39:34,596
What did your teacher say?
1079
00:39:34,596 –> 00:39:35,996
She’s going to be,
1080
00:39:36,316 –> 00:39:37,236
where’s your homework?
1081
00:39:37,716 –> 00:39:37,916
What?
1082
00:39:37,916 –> 00:39:38,836
She’s going to say,
1083
00:39:38,836 –> 00:39:39,756
where’s your homework?
1084
00:39:39,756 –> 00:39:41,036
Where’s your homework?
1085
00:39:42,716 –> 00:39:43,836
Where’s the homework?
1086
00:39:44,076 –> 00:39:46,716
The traders deserve the absolute best demo contractors.
1087
00:39:47,196 –> 00:39:47,676
out there.
1088
00:39:47,756 –> 00:39:48,796
You remember this guy,
1089
00:39:48,796 –> 00:39:51,476
the city expert who showed up at a demo site last
1090
00:39:51,476 –> 00:39:51,916
fall?
1091
00:39:52,076 –> 00:39:53,436
A site that he picked?
1092
00:39:53,596 –> 00:39:54,356
Why’d he send you?
1093
00:39:54,356 –> 00:39:57,156
I’m the subject matter expert on the stuff in the city.
1094
00:39:57,156 –> 00:39:58,476
Yeah, but I wanted to talk to Jim Wright.
1095
00:39:58,476 –> 00:40:00,316
He sent me to the pool boy and I want to talk to the
1096
00:40:00,316 –> 00:40:00,636
man.
1097
00:40:00,956 –> 00:40:02,716
He won’t talk to me now either.
1098
00:40:02,796 –> 00:40:04,956
But look at the lot he was showing off back then as
1099
00:40:04,956 –> 00:40:07,516
a model of their demolition awesomeness.
1100
00:40:09,596 –> 00:40:10,956
Aw, come on!
1101
00:40:13,676 –> 00:40:16,556
And here’s the mayor’s 10,000th demo.
1102
00:40:17,116 –> 00:40:19,116
He was crowing about it six weeks ago.
1103
00:40:19,116 –> 00:40:24,476
Nobody in America has begun to try to address blight
1104
00:40:24,756 –> 00:40:25,916
at the rate that we have.
1105
00:40:26,476 –> 00:40:27,836
And look at it today.
1106
00:40:28,396 –> 00:40:29,836
A real moonscape.
1107
00:40:30,436 –> 00:40:33,036
Where’s all the fluffy grass you promised us?
1108
00:40:33,676 –> 00:40:34,996
And guess what this cost?
1109
00:40:41,356 –> 00:40:43,436
You might not be able to grow pumpkins in the mayor’s
1110
00:40:43,436 –> 00:40:44,236
lots, kids.
1111
00:40:44,396 –> 00:40:46,716
You might not be able to play football on them either.
1112
00:40:46,876 –> 00:40:48,236
But hey, don’t worry about it.
1113
00:40:48,396 –> 00:40:50,876
There’s always a bunch of big rocks you can throw at
1114
00:40:50,876 –> 00:40:51,356
each other.
1115
00:40:51,636 –> 00:40:52,596
Thanks, Mr.
1116
00:40:52,756 –> 00:40:56,156
Mayor! Come out of your badger hole,
1117
00:40:56,156 –> 00:40:56,516
Mr.
1118
00:40:56,516 –> 00:40:56,796
Mayor.
1119
00:40:57,836 –> 00:40:58,436
Come on out,
1120
00:40:58,436 –> 00:40:59,356
explain yourself.
1121
00:41:00,396 –> 00:41:01,196
In words.
1122
00:41:02,956 –> 00:41:03,636
From your mouth.
1123
00:41:07,276 –> 00:41:07,916
Wow.
1124
00:41:09,036 –> 00:41:10,396
And every time the army,
1125
00:41:10,556 –> 00:41:11,476
anybody tested,
1126
00:41:11,476 –> 00:41:13,036
that shit came up poison.
1127
00:41:13,196 –> 00:41:14,796
They threw the highways in there.
1128
00:41:14,956 –> 00:41:17,556
They threw sludge from sewer projects in there.
1129
00:41:17,676 –> 00:41:19,196
That’s what the people got.
1130
00:41:19,356 –> 00:41:21,996
And you, you don’t give a shit about Detroit.
1131
00:41:21,996 –> 00:41:22,876
You paid for it.
1132
00:41:23,836 –> 00:41:24,956
You’re paying for all this.
1133
00:41:25,756 –> 00:41:27,916
They had, I knew every,
1134
00:41:29,996 –> 00:41:31,596
I was out there with treasury.
1135
00:41:31,756 –> 00:41:33,676
Guys, he’s got a tie,
1136
00:41:33,916 –> 00:41:35,556
he’s got a badge on,
1137
00:41:35,556 –> 00:41:36,356
he’s got a pistol,
1138
00:41:36,356 –> 00:41:36,916
and he’s got a,
1139
00:41:38,476 –> 00:41:42,396
a video recorder and where they’re taking the cement
1140
00:41:42,396 –> 00:41:42,876
and shit,
1141
00:41:43,596 –> 00:41:45,436
crushing it up from these houses and mixing that,
1142
00:41:45,436 –> 00:41:45,636
you know,
1143
00:41:45,636 –> 00:41:46,796
the crappy bit of dirt.
1144
00:41:47,436 –> 00:41:50,036
And he put just in the fucking trees filming it and
1145
00:41:50,036 –> 00:41:50,396
it’s like,
1146
00:41:51,836 –> 00:41:53,516
turns out there was never any records for dirt.
1147
00:41:54,556 –> 00:41:55,796
Never any records for dirt.
1148
00:41:55,796 –> 00:41:56,636
And they were telling us,
1149
00:41:56,636 –> 00:41:57,276
you just saw it.
1150
00:41:57,276 –> 00:42:00,636
He told you there were records for dirt.
1151
00:42:00,636 –> 00:42:04,396
All the cost overruns quadrupled because of dirt.
1152
00:42:06,076 –> 00:42:06,476
Now,
1153
00:42:07,756 –> 00:42:08,436
Fast forward,
1154
00:42:08,436 –> 00:42:09,436
all that federal money’s gone,
1155
00:42:09,436 –> 00:42:10,196
the feds are gone,
1156
00:42:10,196 –> 00:42:12,156
it disappears under the Biden administration.
1157
00:42:12,236 –> 00:42:14,316
We have something called Proposal N in Detroit,
1158
00:42:14,396 –> 00:42:17,516
another $250 million to handle this,
1159
00:42:17,636 –> 00:42:18,156
which is,
1160
00:42:18,316 –> 00:42:19,516
when we go back to what he said,
1161
00:42:20,636 –> 00:42:21,116
you know,
1162
00:42:22,156 –> 00:42:23,436
back in today,
1163
00:42:23,516 –> 00:42:25,756
in 2016, we did our 10,000th.
1164
00:42:26,476 –> 00:42:30,036
Today, we did our 8,000th under Proposition N.
1165
00:42:30,036 –> 00:42:31,356
But what do we now know?
1166
00:42:32,156 –> 00:42:33,196
We now know
1167
00:42:33,996 –> 00:42:37,276
that there is a sprawling investigation is going into
1168
00:42:37,276 –> 00:42:38,076
City Hall.
1169
00:42:38,556 –> 00:42:43,836
They that Northland malls poison dirt contaminated
1170
00:42:43,836 –> 00:42:46,476
dirt that was supposed to go to landfill quite likely
1171
00:42:46,756 –> 00:42:49,756
according to our many whistleblowers who worked on
1172
00:42:49,916 –> 00:42:50,156
it.
1173
00:42:50,156 –> 00:42:53,036
did went into the neighborhoods again.
1174
00:42:53,116 –> 00:42:54,636
Here’s here’s here.
1175
00:42:54,716 –> 00:42:55,596
Hey, John Roach.
1176
00:42:55,996 –> 00:42:56,516
Here’s a guy.
1177
00:42:56,516 –> 00:42:57,516
They talked to this guy.
1178
00:42:57,516 –> 00:42:58,156
Watch this.
1179
00:42:58,156 –> 00:42:58,876
Let’s just play.
1180
00:42:59,036 –> 00:43:00,716
This is a guy involved in it.
1181
00:43:01,116 –> 00:43:03,676
I would say roughly at least 500.
1182
00:43:03,756 –> 00:43:04,916
500 houses?
1183
00:43:04,916 –> 00:43:05,836
At least 500.
1184
00:43:05,836 –> 00:43:08,076
And here’s how the Northland scam worked.
1185
00:43:08,156 –> 00:43:11,116
It was supposed to all be diverted directly to the
1186
00:43:11,116 –> 00:43:11,596
landfill,
1187
00:43:12,156 –> 00:43:17,276
but they diverted it into the city to backfill the
1188
00:43:17,516 –> 00:43:20,156
residential properties that was part of.
1189
00:43:20,396 –> 00:43:21,876
And they were turning down all the houses.
1190
00:43:22,796 –> 00:43:23,596
Other addresses,
1191
00:43:24,716 –> 00:43:25,996
other residential addresses.
1192
00:43:26,516 –> 00:43:27,476
on our tickets sometimes.
1193
00:43:27,836 –> 00:43:30,076
We never put down that it came from Northland.
1194
00:43:30,276 –> 00:43:32,076
Those address were off Grand River somewhere,
1195
00:43:32,076 –> 00:43:32,476
I remember.
1196
00:43:33,196 –> 00:43:33,796
But all in all,
1197
00:43:33,796 –> 00:43:35,476
the dirt was coming from Northland the whole time.
1198
00:43:35,676 –> 00:43:39,036
You get a dirt inspection where they dump approved
1199
00:43:39,036 –> 00:43:39,756
material,
1200
00:43:39,996 –> 00:43:41,436
and once you get approved,
1201
00:43:41,436 –> 00:43:43,116
then here comes all the bullshit.
1202
00:43:43,436 –> 00:43:44,556
Reached by phone,
1203
00:43:44,556 –> 00:43:46,956
the Northland developer said he knew nothing about
1204
00:43:46,956 –> 00:43:47,116
it.
1205
00:43:47,756 –> 00:43:48,636
And the mayor?
1206
00:43:49,196 –> 00:43:51,836
With the city in the red and the dirt red hot,
1207
00:43:52,236 –> 00:43:55,596
Duggan’s getting gone and now running for governor
1208
00:43:55,596 –> 00:43:56,476
of Michigan.
1209
00:43:57,116 –> 00:43:58,276
So he wants to be your governor,
1210
00:43:58,276 –> 00:43:59,516
but I’m going to tell you what.
1211
00:43:59,916 –> 00:44:03,036
He’s going to get gone in that sprawling investigation.
1212
00:44:03,036 –> 00:44:06,516
I know, I’m up all night talking to the principals
1213
00:44:06,516 –> 00:44:06,876
here.
1214
00:44:07,596 –> 00:44:10,396
It’s going to land just in time when you’re…
1215
00:44:13,356 –> 00:44:15,716
running around Michigan telling them how awesome you
1216
00:44:15,756 –> 00:44:18,476
are and Escanaba is going to be seeing commercials
1217
00:44:18,636 –> 00:44:23,596
about a dirt bag big city machine boss and a bunch
1218
00:44:23,596 –> 00:44:24,316
of poison dirt.
1219
00:44:24,316 –> 00:44:25,596
You think they’re going to go for that up there?
1220
00:44:25,996 –> 00:44:26,436
Do you really?
1221
00:44:26,556 –> 00:44:27,596
You think Tweeten’s going to?
1222
00:44:27,756 –> 00:44:28,476
This isn’t me.
1223
00:44:28,556 –> 00:44:29,036
Look here.
1224
00:44:31,516 –> 00:44:31,836
Ms.
1225
00:44:31,836 –> 00:44:33,356
Nessel, Ms.
1226
00:44:33,356 –> 00:44:34,716
Kornack, Ms.
1227
00:44:34,716 –> 00:44:36,156
Hertel, Ms.
1228
00:44:36,156 –> 00:44:37,836
Whitmer, Mr.
1229
00:44:37,836 –> 00:44:38,556
Duggan.
1230
00:44:39,916 –> 00:44:40,716
It’s just the facts,
1231
00:44:40,716 –> 00:44:41,196
folks.
1232
00:44:41,676 –> 00:44:43,916
We’ll be right back after this with a word from XG.
1233
00:44:44,396 –> 00:44:45,516
Well, when it rains,
1234
00:44:45,516 –> 00:44:46,396
the power goes out.
1235
00:44:46,396 –> 00:44:47,676
And when the power goes out,
1236
00:44:47,676 –> 00:44:48,596
the internet goes out.
1237
00:44:48,596 –> 00:44:49,676
When the internet goes out,
1238
00:44:49,676 –> 00:44:52,876
I call my friend Matt and Bernie at XG Service Group.
1239
00:44:53,036 –> 00:44:54,876
Look at Bernie here on his hands and knees,
1240
00:44:55,036 –> 00:44:56,396
giving it everything he’s got.
1241
00:44:56,956 –> 00:44:58,156
Look at that man crack.
1242
00:44:58,396 –> 00:44:59,356
So busy.
1243
00:44:59,996 –> 00:45:01,036
He forgot to wear a belt.
1244
00:45:01,036 –> 00:45:03,116
There’s Matt right there getting the board together.
1245
00:45:03,116 –> 00:45:05,836
That’s 734-245-4100.
1246
00:45:05,836 –> 00:45:08,636
If you need Matt and Bernie to come take care of your
1247
00:45:08,636 –> 00:45:09,676

they’ll design it for you.
1252

1256
00:45:24,316 –> 00:45:24,796
Yeah, that’s right.

00:45:24,796 –> 00:45:28,476
Call XG Services at 734-245-4100.
1258
00:45:28,956 –> 00:45:29,876
You know, 97 on the ticket.
1259
00:45:29,996 –> 00:45:31,276
sports station,
1260
00:45:31,436 –> 00:45:33,476
everybody listens to that because there’s again,
1261
00:45:33,476 –> 00:45:34,276
there’s nothing else,
1262
00:45:34,556 –> 00:45:34,796
right?
1263
00:45:35,276 –> 00:45:36,396
Except WJR,
1264
00:45:36,396 –> 00:45:37,276
I listen to that too.
1265
00:45:38,716 –> 00:45:39,596
But there’s a guy there,
1266
00:45:39,596 –> 00:45:40,716
I don’t know when he first,
1267
00:45:40,876 –> 00:45:41,676
Mark Ryan,
1268
00:45:42,076 –> 00:45:42,716
he’s a pro.
1269
00:45:43,036 –> 00:45:44,076
You hear him,
1270
00:45:44,076 –> 00:45:44,196
right?
1271
00:45:44,196 –> 00:45:44,796
Yeah, I know who he is.
1272
00:45:44,956 –> 00:45:46,556
He’s coming out of Florida.
1273
00:45:47,276 –> 00:45:47,876
I think so.
1274
00:45:47,916 –> 00:45:48,876
Worked in Houston,
1275
00:45:48,876 –> 00:45:49,596
Carolinas,
1276
00:45:49,596 –> 00:45:49,996
Florida.
1277
00:45:49,996 –> 00:45:50,796
He’s a pro.
1278
00:45:50,796 –> 00:45:52,276
Typical radio guy all over the place.
1279
00:45:52,276 –> 00:45:53,116
Yeah, I don’t know.
1280
00:45:53,196 –> 00:45:54,116
They got him on the weekends,
1281
00:45:54,116 –> 00:45:56,476
probably filling in because it’s crowded over there,
1282
00:45:56,476 –> 00:45:58,316
but he’s he did something.
1283
00:45:59,236 –> 00:45:59,876
It’s summertime,
1284
00:45:59,876 –> 00:46:00,036
man.
1285
00:46:00,036 –> 00:46:02,396
The only thing going on in sports is the Tigers,
1286
00:46:02,396 –> 00:46:02,516
right?
1287
00:46:02,516 –> 00:46:03,436
So you got to fill.
1288
00:46:03,756 –> 00:46:05,636
Everyone loves lists and brackets.
1289
00:46:05,636 –> 00:46:07,196
You can’t talk about the bullpen.
1290
00:46:08,004 –> 00:46:11,244
24 straight hours and everybody loves brackets.
1291
00:46:11,244 –> 00:46:13,244
So I don’t know,
1292
00:46:13,244 –> 00:46:13,764
he got me,
1293
00:46:13,764 –> 00:46:15,364
it’s just something to do.
1294
00:46:15,524 –> 00:46:17,764
Detroit’s all-time toughest sports guy.
1295
00:46:18,404 –> 00:46:21,684
And the rules on this thing were just who could be
1296
00:46:21,684 –> 00:46:23,324
who’s ass in an alley fight,
1297
00:46:23,324 –> 00:46:23,844
a bar fight,
1298
00:46:24,044 –> 00:46:24,164
right?
1299
00:46:24,964 –> 00:46:26,644
Not based on sports skill,
1300
00:46:26,644 –> 00:46:27,084
but based on.
1301
00:46:27,084 –> 00:46:27,564
And you know,
1302
00:46:27,564 –> 00:46:28,644
I mean, it’s goofy,
1303
00:46:28,644 –> 00:46:31,764
but what’s nice about it is it just
1304
00:46:32,804 –> 00:46:34,164
like each time he’s on the air,
1305
00:46:34,164 –> 00:46:36,004
he’ll do a fresh bracket,
1306
00:46:36,004 –> 00:46:36,244
right?
1307
00:46:36,244 –> 00:46:37,844
So there’s 16 guys,
1308
00:46:37,844 –> 00:46:38,644
all guys.
1309
00:46:40,564 –> 00:46:41,764
I’d like to see a women’s bracket.
1310
00:46:41,764 –> 00:46:42,524
I think that would work.
1311
00:46:42,724 –> 00:46:44,364
Well, who’s the heavyweight champ out of Flint?
1312
00:46:45,044 –> 00:46:45,284
Oh.
1313
00:46:45,284 –> 00:46:46,164
Clarissa Shields.
1314
00:46:46,164 –> 00:46:46,644
There you go.
1315
00:46:46,804 –> 00:46:47,044
Yep.
1316
00:46:47,204 –> 00:46:48,284
Undefeated.
1317
00:46:48,284 –> 00:46:49,044
Yeah, I have something.
1318
00:46:49,164 –> 00:46:49,524
She’s the best.
1319
00:46:49,524 –> 00:46:50,964
Like 5 weight categories.
1320
00:46:51,284 –> 00:46:53,444
You know, I think she should be on here.
1321
00:46:54,084 –> 00:46:54,284
She could,
1322
00:46:54,644 –> 00:46:55,284
she could probably.
1323
00:46:55,604 –> 00:46:56,644
Because who’s the toughest?
1324
00:46:56,644 –> 00:46:59,364
Okay, who’s part of the toughest is making people back
1325
00:46:59,364 –> 00:46:59,684
down.
1326
00:47:00,564 –> 00:47:01,044
All right,
1327
00:47:01,284 –> 00:47:03,364
so there’s a check who go whoop your ass.
1328
00:47:03,444 –> 00:47:04,724
You’re backing down.
1329
00:47:04,804 –> 00:47:08,404
Like, I think she should be on it.
1330
00:47:08,404 –> 00:47:08,844
But anyway,
1331
00:47:08,844 –> 00:47:10,404
I’ll tell you who is on here.
1332
00:47:10,804 –> 00:47:11,684
A lot of hockey guys.
1333
00:47:12,084 –> 00:47:15,844
So it’s 8 on each side,
1334
00:47:15,844 –> 00:47:16,164
right?
1335
00:47:16,924 –> 00:47:17,804
Two brackets.
1336
00:47:17,804 –> 00:47:20,884
So in one side is #1 is Bob Probert,
1337
00:47:21,604 –> 00:47:22,884
2 Ben Wallace,
1338
00:47:22,884 –> 00:47:24,164
3 Alex Karis,
1339
00:47:24,164 –> 00:47:25,444
4 Pinay Sewell.
1340
00:47:27,844 –> 00:47:29,524
Five, Rick Mahorn,
1341
00:47:29,524 –> 00:47:30,804
6, Dan Campbell,
1342
00:47:30,804 –> 00:47:33,044
7th, Joey Kosar at 7,
1343
00:47:33,524 –> 00:47:34,844
and Isaiah Thomas at 8.
1344
00:47:35,604 –> 00:47:36,564
On the other side,
1345
00:47:37,684 –> 00:47:38,644
Joe Lewis,
1346
00:47:38,724 –> 00:47:41,124
#1, Darren McCarty,
1347
00:47:41,124 –> 00:47:44,484
#2, Nadami Can Sue,
1348
00:47:44,484 –> 00:47:46,004
#3, Gordie Howe,
1349
00:47:46,004 –> 00:47:49,244
#4, Thomas Hitman Hearns,
1350
00:47:49,244 –> 00:47:52,804
#5, Ty Cobb,
1351
00:47:53,124 –> 00:47:54,884
6th, Bill Lambier,
1352
00:47:54,884 –> 00:47:56,404
7th, Bill Lambier,
1353
00:47:56,404 –> 00:47:56,844
7th,
1354
00:47:57,284 –> 00:47:58,564
And Bob Lanier 8th.
1355
00:47:59,804 –> 00:47:59,884
Wow.
1356
00:47:59,884 –> 00:48:00,084
Okay.
1357
00:48:00,324 –> 00:48:01,524
I’m going Iron Man on that one.
1358
00:48:02,324 –> 00:48:02,804
Iron Man.
1359
00:48:02,924 –> 00:48:03,924
I’m going that side.
1360
00:48:04,644 –> 00:48:05,484
Who do you think?
1361
00:48:05,484 –> 00:48:06,404
Okay, Joe Lewis.
1362
00:48:06,724 –> 00:48:09,724
I mean, you got Tommy Hearns and Joe Lewis and Ty Cobb
1363
00:48:09,724 –> 00:48:09,964
and.
1364
00:48:11,204 –> 00:48:12,564
What’s Ty Cobb doing on here?
1365
00:48:12,564 –> 00:48:13,284
I mean, you could look,
1366
00:48:13,284 –> 00:48:14,004
you can argue,
1367
00:48:14,004 –> 00:48:15,724
but it’s a fun thing.
1368
00:48:15,724 –> 00:48:17,444
You’re driving up to the cottage and he’s on.
1369
00:48:17,924 –> 00:48:18,164
Right.
1370
00:48:18,324 –> 00:48:19,604
And the other day it wasn’t here.
1371
00:48:19,604 –> 00:48:20,004
Let me see.
1372
00:48:20,004 –> 00:48:20,644
I can tell you.
1373
00:48:22,764 –> 00:48:23,604
I called you last night,
1374
00:48:23,604 –> 00:48:24,004
motherfucker.
1375
00:48:24,004 –> 00:48:24,844
Wait a minute.
1376
00:48:25,524 –> 00:48:26,884
That could be the feds.
1377
00:48:28,044 –> 00:48:29,284
I’ll get that afterwards.
1378
00:48:32,244 –> 00:48:35,164
So it was Alex Karis and Dan Campbell.
1379
00:48:35,164 –> 00:48:38,644
And it was cool hearing the old Alex Karis stories.
1380
00:48:38,644 –> 00:48:39,164
Stories.
1381
00:48:39,164 –> 00:48:40,404
A fight at the Inland LAC,
1382
00:48:40,644 –> 00:48:40,924
right?
1383
00:48:40,924 –> 00:48:41,204
Yeah.
1384
00:48:41,564 –> 00:48:43,124
Which was staged with Dick De Bruiser.
1385
00:48:43,124 –> 00:48:43,404
By the way,
1386
00:48:43,404 –> 00:48:44,524
Dick De Bruiser’s not on here.
1387
00:48:44,524 –> 00:48:44,884
I know.
1388
00:48:44,884 –> 00:48:45,764
I was just going to say that.
1389
00:48:45,804 –> 00:48:45,924
Yeah.
1390
00:48:45,924 –> 00:48:47,524
Is Alex Karis the one who did Webster?
1391
00:48:47,604 –> 00:48:48,004
Yes.
1392
00:48:48,084 –> 00:48:48,204
Yeah.
1393
00:48:48,204 –> 00:48:48,844
George Papadopoulos.
1394
00:48:48,844 –> 00:48:50,604
And he was Mongo and Blazing Zenom.
1395
00:48:50,604 –> 00:48:50,724
Yes.
1396
00:48:51,924 –> 00:48:52,564
But anyways,
1397
00:48:52,564 –> 00:48:54,724
like Dan Campbell’s 15 pounds bigger.
1398
00:48:55,604 –> 00:48:57,924
Dan Campbell would murder him.
1399
00:48:58,724 –> 00:48:59,284
Maybe.
1400
00:48:59,444 –> 00:49:02,004
But here’s the part about being tough.
1401
00:49:02,324 –> 00:49:03,764
If you got to judge these guys,
1402
00:49:04,164 –> 00:49:07,004
we know Alex Karas has been in a bar fight.
1403
00:49:07,004 –> 00:49:07,444
That’s true.
1404
00:49:07,444 –> 00:49:10,084
There’s no record of Dan Campbell being able to fight.
1405
00:49:10,084 –> 00:49:10,884
You could be big,
1406
00:49:11,124 –> 00:49:12,404
catch a ball and block,
1407
00:49:12,564 –> 00:49:12,924
right?
1408
00:49:12,964 –> 00:49:13,204
Sure.
1409
00:49:13,364 –> 00:49:15,444
But I, at a frat party at Michigan,
1410
00:49:15,444 –> 00:49:19,044
I beat the fuck out of a defensive tap on the football
1411
00:49:19,044 –> 00:49:19,244
team.
1412
00:49:19,244 –> 00:49:19,684
Really?
1413
00:49:19,684 –> 00:49:20,404
Yeah, I got him,
1414
00:49:20,564 –> 00:49:22,204
got him in the jab wizard like this,
1415
00:49:22,204 –> 00:49:23,364
a bang in his ass,
1416
00:49:23,644 –> 00:49:24,924
and he threw him out.
1417
00:49:25,004 –> 00:49:27,364
He come back later and he take my hang of it.
1418
00:49:28,484 –> 00:49:28,804
That’s good.
1419
00:49:28,804 –> 00:49:29,204
Right.
1420
00:49:29,204 –> 00:49:30,324
I hope he wasn’t a starter.
1421
00:49:30,324 –> 00:49:30,764
That’s like.
1422
00:49:30,764 –> 00:49:31,244
That’s right.
1423
00:49:31,324 –> 00:49:31,684
That’s right.
1424
00:49:31,684 –> 00:49:32,164
Don’t fuck.
1425
00:49:32,164 –> 00:49:33,284
I hope he didn’t play much.
1426
00:49:33,364 –> 00:49:33,484
Huh?
1427
00:49:33,684 –> 00:49:34,564
Did he play much?
1428
00:49:34,884 –> 00:49:35,364
Yeah.
1429
00:49:35,524 –> 00:49:36,404
Did he have a mustache?
1430
00:49:36,644 –> 00:49:36,964
Yeah.
1431
00:49:37,564 –> 00:49:38,404
I think I know who it is.
1432
00:49:39,204 –> 00:49:39,524
Okay.
1433
00:49:42,084 –> 00:49:42,804
So fine.
1434
00:49:42,804 –> 00:49:43,764
But look here.
1435
00:49:43,844 –> 00:49:44,324
Look here.
1436
00:49:46,404 –> 00:49:50,084
The number one guy all time.
1437
00:49:50,964 –> 00:49:52,324
Probably in the history of Detroit,
1438
00:49:52,324 –> 00:49:54,084
even going back before there was a Detroit.
1439
00:49:54,244 –> 00:49:55,924
The baddest motherfucker,
1440
00:49:56,324 –> 00:49:57,284
without doubt,
1441
00:49:57,764 –> 00:50:00,804
is Tommy Motor City Cobra,
1442
00:50:01,044 –> 00:50:02,404
Hitman Hearns,
1443
00:50:02,644 –> 00:50:03,444
period.
1444
00:50:04,084 –> 00:50:05,044
Period.
1445
00:50:05,284 –> 00:50:05,844
Let me give you,
1446
00:50:05,844 –> 00:50:06,964
let me give it a res here.
1447
00:50:07,044 –> 00:50:08,084
Resume in this guy.
1448
00:50:08,804 –> 00:50:10,724
Seven time world champ.
1449
00:50:11,684 –> 00:50:14,004
Six weight classes.
1450
00:50:14,204 –> 00:50:15,044
When he retired,
1451
00:50:15,044 –> 00:50:16,404
no one had ever done that.
1452
00:50:16,724 –> 00:50:17,124
Okay?
1453
00:50:17,284 –> 00:50:19,204
So he fought welterweight.
1454
00:50:19,444 –> 00:50:21,844
He went from 147 to 198.
1455
00:50:22,244 –> 00:50:23,124
That I’d tell you something.
1456
00:50:23,204 –> 00:50:25,124
Joe Lewis fought at 200 pounds.
1457
00:50:26,004 –> 00:50:28,644
Joe Lewis had a reach of 96 inches.
1458
00:50:29,044 –> 00:50:31,524
Tommy Hearns has a reach of 98 inches.
1459
00:50:31,684 –> 00:50:32,564
For comparison,
1460
00:50:32,804 –> 00:50:35,844
Mike Tyson has a reach of 91 inches.
1461
00:50:36,804 –> 00:50:37,604
Get me so far?
1462
00:50:38,724 –> 00:50:39,284
So
1463
00:50:41,524 –> 00:50:42,084
AI, I’m like,
1464
00:50:42,644 –> 00:50:43,844
I asked AI.
1465
00:50:44,204 –> 00:50:45,524
I’m listening to Mark Ryan.
1466
00:50:45,524 –> 00:50:46,724
There was 97 on the ticket.
1467
00:50:46,724 –> 00:50:47,164
Thanks for this,
1468
00:50:47,164 –> 00:50:47,324
dude.
1469
00:50:47,324 –> 00:50:49,204
This is a little fun summer thing.
1470
00:50:53,924 –> 00:50:54,884
Where does it go with that?
1471
00:50:55,204 –> 00:50:55,684
Fuck it.
1472
00:50:55,684 –> 00:50:57,204
Look, it’s Tommy Hitman hurts.
1473
00:50:57,844 –> 00:50:58,804
It just, it can’t like,
1474
00:50:59,284 –> 00:50:59,684
who?
1475
00:51:00,804 –> 00:51:01,364
Five.
1476
00:51:02,004 –> 00:51:02,564
So if you’re,
1477
00:51:02,644 –> 00:51:04,324
if, how many guys are ranked higher?
1478
00:51:04,964 –> 00:51:06,724
Than hurts.
1479
00:51:07,364 –> 00:51:08,564
Five, 6, 7,
1480
00:51:08,644 –> 00:51:10,724
8, at least eight people.
1481
00:51:10,724 –> 00:51:10,964
Yeah.
1482
00:51:12,124 –> 00:51:12,404
No way.
1483
00:51:12,964 –> 00:51:15,684
Your criteria is who would who would survive in a street
1484
00:51:15,684 –> 00:51:15,964
fight?
1485
00:51:15,964 –> 00:51:18,204
I mean, you got to put Tommy #1.
1486
00:51:18,244 –> 00:51:19,044
Yeah, you know,
1487
00:51:19,044 –> 00:51:19,364
look.
1488
00:51:19,524 –> 00:51:20,844
I would like Joe Louis #2.
1489
00:51:20,844 –> 00:51:21,644
That was the Golden Age.
1490
00:51:21,684 –> 00:51:24,724
Boxing’s the most difficult sport there is.
1491
00:51:24,884 –> 00:51:26,484
That’s nobody challenges that.
1492
00:51:26,484 –> 00:51:27,364
It’s not MMA,
1493
00:51:27,364 –> 00:51:28,404
it’s boxing.
1494
00:51:28,964 –> 00:51:31,644
How many, I always judge a sport difficulty.
1495
00:51:31,644 –> 00:51:34,004
How many games can you play or matches or whatever
1496
00:51:34,324 –> 00:51:35,924
can you play in a week?
1497
00:51:36,644 –> 00:51:37,404
And boxing,
1498
00:51:37,404 –> 00:51:38,484
it’s like.1.
1499
00:51:38,484 –> 00:51:39,204
You need 6,
1500
00:51:39,364 –> 00:51:41,684
you need weeks and weeks of training just for that.
1501
00:51:42,404 –> 00:51:45,044
Baseball, you can play free every day,
1502
00:51:45,044 –> 00:51:46,004
football once a week.
1503
00:51:46,004 –> 00:51:46,804
What was this guy?
1504
00:51:47,204 –> 00:51:51,204
This guy actually did play football in another body.
1505
00:51:54,244 –> 00:51:54,524
Okay.
1506
00:51:55,444 –> 00:51:57,204
So there are 315 rounds,
1507
00:51:57,204 –> 00:52:00,084
three, like it was the golden age of boxing for welterweight
1508
00:52:00,084 –> 00:52:00,644
and middleweight.
1509
00:52:02,164 –> 00:52:03,204
Marvin Hagler,
1510
00:52:03,844 –> 00:52:04,324
which
1511
00:52:04,804 –> 00:52:05,444
The first round,
1512
00:52:05,444 –> 00:52:08,084
Marvin Hagler and Tommy Hearns is considered the most
1513
00:52:08,084 –> 00:52:10,964
vicious ever captured on film,
1514
00:52:11,284 –> 00:52:11,684
right?
1515
00:52:12,724 –> 00:52:13,844
Sugar Ray Leonard,
1516
00:52:13,844 –> 00:52:15,044
Roberto Duran,
1517
00:52:15,044 –> 00:52:18,004
you got, and this guy’s got fucking 6 titles.
1518
00:52:18,884 –> 00:52:19,524
Really?
1519
00:52:20,324 –> 00:52:20,924
Ranked fit.
1520
00:52:20,924 –> 00:52:21,444
Okay, look,
1521
00:52:21,444 –> 00:52:21,924
you know what?
1522
00:52:22,884 –> 00:52:24,284
Got 3 Red Wings on this thing.
1523
00:52:24,324 –> 00:52:25,044
We got four.
1524
00:52:25,604 –> 00:52:26,444
Bob Probert,
1525
00:52:27,444 –> 00:52:29,684
maybe the greatest enforcer of all time on the ice.
1526
00:52:30,004 –> 00:52:30,884
Joey Kosar,
1527
00:52:30,884 –> 00:52:33,844
who deserves a higher ranking than 7th.
1528
00:52:34,244 –> 00:52:36,484
He gets knocked down because he always with Probert.
1529
00:52:37,164 –> 00:52:41,284
Gordie Howe and Tommy Hitman Hearns are going to be
1530
00:52:41,364 –> 00:52:41,644
mad.
1531
00:52:41,644 –> 00:52:42,124
I can’t wait.
1532
00:52:42,244 –> 00:52:42,964
Gordie Howe.
1533
00:52:44,084 –> 00:52:45,204
Tommy Hitman Hearns.
1534
00:52:45,204 –> 00:52:47,164
Well, he did play without a helmet for a really long
1535
00:52:47,164 –> 00:52:47,284
time.
1536
00:52:47,284 –> 00:52:48,484
Gordie was a tough motherfucker.
1537
00:52:48,484 –> 00:52:50,084
No way he beats Hitman.
1538
00:52:50,564 –> 00:52:51,524
And Darren McCarty,
1539
00:52:52,644 –> 00:52:54,884
also one of the greatest enforcers of all time.
1540
00:52:55,124 –> 00:52:56,004
Darren McCarty,
1541
00:52:56,404 –> 00:52:56,844
who played,
1542
00:52:56,844 –> 00:52:57,764
who’s 6’1,
1543
00:52:57,764 –> 00:52:58,724
just like Tommy Hearns,
1544
00:52:59,124 –> 00:53:00,244
played at 215,
1545
00:53:00,244 –> 00:53:03,164
Tommy won the cruiserweight at 198.
1546
00:53:03,284 –> 00:53:03,764
You know what?
1547
00:53:05,524 –> 00:53:06,644
Fucking call it Derek.
1548
00:53:06,644 –> 00:53:08,484
If any of these guys could use a hockey stick in that
1549
00:53:08,484 –> 00:53:10,164
fight, I’d say that that’s their advantage.
1550
00:53:11,284 –> 00:53:12,404
Well, they can’t use a hockey stick.
1551
00:53:12,404 –> 00:53:14,044
If they can’t use a hockey stick,
1552
00:53:14,044 –> 00:53:15,844
then they got no prayer against the hitman.
1553
00:53:15,844 –> 00:53:16,404
Come on.
1554
00:53:17,884 –> 00:53:18,564
What’s that called?
1555
00:53:18,564 –> 00:53:19,604
Fight night at the Joe?
1556
00:53:19,804 –> 00:53:22,284
That big 97 fight with the Avalanche?
1557
00:53:22,284 –> 00:53:23,484
Yeah, March 26th.
1558
00:53:23,524 –> 00:53:26,324
I was going to say he probably is one of the most famous
1559
00:53:26,324 –> 00:53:27,604
pictures in Detroit’s history.
1560
00:53:29,684 –> 00:53:30,164
Hello.
1561
00:53:30,884 –> 00:53:31,924
Hey, what’s up going on,
1562
00:53:31,924 –> 00:53:32,244
Darren?
1563
00:53:32,244 –> 00:53:32,804
You’re on the air,
1564
00:53:32,804 –> 00:53:33,204
bro.
1565
00:53:36,324 –> 00:53:39,524
Yeah, We’re in the middle of a deep philosophical discussion.
1566
00:53:39,524 –> 00:53:40,004
Listen, man,
1567
00:53:40,004 –> 00:53:42,724
I’m old, getting a little senile.
1568
00:53:43,204 –> 00:53:44,244
Who won that fight?
1569
00:53:44,324 –> 00:53:45,204
You were Lemieux.
1570
00:53:47,524 –> 00:53:49,524
You must be getting a little senile,
1571
00:53:49,524 –> 00:53:49,924
bro.
1572
00:53:49,924 –> 00:53:50,244
That was.
1573
00:53:50,504 –> 00:53:55,864
Detroit all the way no doubt about it Joe Lewis style
1574
00:53:56,184 –> 00:53:58,984
oh yeah the fight night at the Joe what do you say
1575
00:54:00,424 –> 00:54:06,024
March 26 1997 what what happened what’s what I mean
1576
00:54:06,264 –> 00:54:07,704
you’re famous man what happened
1577
00:54:09,304 –> 00:54:10,624
What happened with what?
1578
00:54:10,624 –> 00:54:11,984
Well, how’d that fight go off like that?
1579
00:54:11,984 –> 00:54:12,704
What was the…
1580
00:54:12,704 –> 00:54:17,464
Well, the whole backstory of what happened the year
1581
00:54:17,464 –> 00:54:19,384
before in the rivalry,
1582
00:54:19,384 –> 00:54:21,064
but Claude Mew,
1583
00:54:21,704 –> 00:54:23,224
the villain in this case,
1584
00:54:23,384 –> 00:54:26,824
had hit Chris Draper from behind,
1585
00:54:26,824 –> 00:54:28,464
broke his jaw in four spots,
1586
00:54:28,464 –> 00:54:29,944
crushed his orbital bone.
1587
00:54:30,344 –> 00:54:31,544
And we know in sports,
1588
00:54:31,544 –> 00:54:32,064
in his life,
1589
00:54:32,184 –> 00:54:33,464
bad things happen,
1590
00:54:33,784 –> 00:54:35,864
but you can’t lose respect for a fellow human.
1591
00:54:36,104 –> 00:54:37,784
Claude Mew never apologized.
1592
00:54:38,144 –> 00:54:40,344
That’s why almost a year later,
1593
00:54:41,384 –> 00:54:42,664
the karma was served.
1594
00:54:43,064 –> 00:54:45,784
So it’s just karma,
1595
00:54:45,784 –> 00:54:46,904
Charlie, especially,
1596
00:54:48,104 –> 00:54:48,344
you know,
1597
00:54:48,344 –> 00:54:50,104
back in 1997,
1598
00:54:50,344 –> 00:54:52,264
things were a little different than they are today.
1599
00:54:52,264 –> 00:54:54,864
So he got what he deserved,
1600
00:54:54,864 –> 00:54:55,584
that’s for sure.
1601
00:54:55,584 –> 00:54:56,744
And again,
1602
00:54:56,744 –> 00:54:57,864
catapulted us,
1603
00:54:58,664 –> 00:54:58,904
you know,
1604
00:54:59,384 –> 00:55:01,704
to the championship and be able to win our first cup
1605
00:55:01,704 –> 00:55:02,744
in 42 years.
1606
00:55:03,224 –> 00:55:03,904
Thanks for doing that,
1607
00:55:03,904 –> 00:55:05,704
because there’s people listening that don’t know us.
1608
00:55:05,704 –> 00:55:07,024
I do know what happened.
1609
00:55:07,024 –> 00:55:07,344
I was just,
1610
00:55:07,344 –> 00:55:08,744
that’s a little radio trick.
1611
00:55:09,624 –> 00:55:10,424
I know you are.
1612
00:55:10,504 –> 00:55:11,304
You’re a pro.
1613
00:55:12,744 –> 00:55:13,264
You’re a pro,
1614
00:55:13,304 –> 00:55:15,624
because I know why you wouldn’t remember,
1615
00:55:15,624 –> 00:55:18,064
Charlie, because that’s almost 30 years ago.
1616
00:55:21,064 –> 00:55:22,984
How are you physically feeling these days?
1617
00:55:23,624 –> 00:55:24,344
Everything’s good.
1618
00:55:24,664 –> 00:55:28,344
I’m actually about 30 minutes away from Gaylord right
1619
00:55:28,344 –> 00:55:28,664
now.
1620
00:55:28,664 –> 00:55:31,224
I got a golf golf week,
1621
00:55:31,224 –> 00:55:32,504
weekend, whatever you want.
1622
00:55:32,504 –> 00:55:34,904
So life is good with Darryl McCarty.
1623
00:55:35,064 –> 00:55:36,904
Are you golfing with Dino?
1624
00:55:38,184 –> 00:55:39,064
Not this week.
1625
00:55:39,144 –> 00:55:40,504
I saw him last week.
1626
00:55:40,504 –> 00:55:41,864
So he’s probably out on the boat.
1627
00:55:42,344 –> 00:55:43,944
Yeah, tell him I said Dino Bach,
1628
00:55:43,944 –> 00:55:44,184
you know,
1629
00:55:44,184 –> 00:55:46,184
the restaurant tour famous.
1630
00:55:47,224 –> 00:55:48,904
All you Italianos stick together.
1631
00:55:50,984 –> 00:55:51,944
I’m not Italian.
1632
00:55:51,984 –> 00:55:53,104
Well, I know,
1633
00:55:53,264 –> 00:55:54,584
but you should be.
1634
00:55:54,744 –> 00:55:59,224
Well, it’s because I wear a mustache just like my grandma.
1635
00:55:59,224 –> 00:56:00,504
That’s it.
1636
00:56:00,744 –> 00:56:01,224
There you go.
1637
00:56:01,264 –> 00:56:01,624
Yeah.
1638
00:56:02,104 –> 00:56:02,744
Okay, listen,
1639
00:56:02,744 –> 00:56:04,504
Darren, help me out here.
1640
00:56:04,584 –> 00:56:07,704
Did you know that you are in a bracket,
1641
00:56:07,704 –> 00:56:11,704
a 97 won the ticket as one of Detroit’s all-time toughest
1642
00:56:11,704 –> 00:56:12,504
sports guys?
1643
00:56:14,504 –> 00:56:16,504
Somebody mentioned something,
1644
00:56:16,584 –> 00:56:18,184
somebody mentioned something to it.
1645
00:56:18,184 –> 00:56:21,544
I don’t really pay attention to that.
1646
00:56:21,624 –> 00:56:24,664
I think that there’s way tougher than me come along,
1647
00:56:24,664 –> 00:56:25,824
especially Bob Probert,
1648
00:56:25,824 –> 00:56:26,504
Joe Kosher,
1649
00:56:26,504 –> 00:56:27,544
just to name a few.
1650
00:56:27,624 –> 00:56:28,824
Okay, listen here,
1651
00:56:28,824 –> 00:56:29,064
man.
1652
00:56:29,304 –> 00:56:30,344
You’re a top four.
1653
00:56:30,344 –> 00:56:31,224
It’s Joe Lewis,
1654
00:56:31,224 –> 00:56:32,264
Bob Probert,
1655
00:56:32,664 –> 00:56:33,624
Ben Wallace,
1656
00:56:34,184 –> 00:56:35,224
and Darren McCarty.
1657
00:56:35,224 –> 00:56:36,904
Now, here’s why I’m calling.
1658
00:56:37,944 –> 00:56:40,744
You know who’s ranked 5th in one side of the bracket?
1659
00:56:41,224 –> 00:56:44,184
Tommy Hitman Hearns.
1660
00:56:44,704 –> 00:56:46,344
Yeah, but who’d he lose to Joe Lewis?
1661
00:56:47,144 –> 00:56:49,224
No, this is still going right now.
1662
00:56:49,224 –> 00:56:50,104
He’s got a bracket.
1663
00:56:50,104 –> 00:56:51,384
It’s him versus Gordie Howe.
1664
00:56:51,384 –> 00:56:53,064
So there’s four wings.
1665
00:56:53,304 –> 00:56:56,984
But could you beat Tommy Hearns in a fight?
1666
00:56:58,504 –> 00:56:59,304
On the ice?
1667
00:56:59,904 –> 00:57:00,104
Maybe.
1668
00:57:01,824 –> 00:57:02,824
If he can’t skate.
1669
00:57:03,864 –> 00:57:05,784
How old is he now?
1670
00:57:07,664 –> 00:57:08,664
He likes, I don’t know,
1671
00:57:08,664 –> 00:57:10,024
65 maybe.
1672
00:57:11,144 –> 00:57:13,664
Okay, as long as he doesn’t get a hold of me on the
1673
00:57:13,784 –> 00:57:14,544
ice, if he can’t,
1674
00:57:16,264 –> 00:57:18,824
I’m going with the fact that he can’t stand on skates.
1675
00:57:18,824 –> 00:57:19,904
But the hell no,
1676
00:57:19,904 –> 00:57:20,264
what do you,
1677
00:57:20,264 –> 00:57:21,064
what’s wrong with you?
1678
00:57:21,864 –> 00:57:22,904
I didn’t think to brag it,
1679
00:57:22,904 –> 00:57:23,384
motherfucker.
1680
00:57:23,544 –> 00:57:25,384
Look, Joe Lewis couldn’t beat Tommy Hearns.
1681
00:57:25,384 –> 00:57:26,504
This call will be recorded.
1682
00:57:26,904 –> 00:57:28,464
Oh shit, like a new phone,
1683
00:57:28,464 –> 00:57:28,824
bro.
1684
00:57:29,144 –> 00:57:29,904
What is that?
1685
00:57:30,664 –> 00:57:31,304
Oh, what the?
1686
00:57:31,464 –> 00:57:33,304
No, that was me.
1687
00:57:33,384 –> 00:57:34,664
My ear hit the record button.
1688
00:57:34,664 –> 00:57:35,024
Oh, okay.
1689
00:57:35,024 –> 00:57:37,424
Don’t worry about it.
1690
00:57:37,464 –> 00:57:37,704
I’m not.
1691
00:57:37,744 –> 00:57:39,864
Well, we’re recording you anyway.
1692
00:57:39,944 –> 00:57:44,504
So Tommy Hearns and Joe Lewis are both from Detroit,
1693
00:57:44,504 –> 00:57:45,224
number one.
1694
00:57:45,224 –> 00:57:46,904
So they should get a little for that.
1695
00:57:46,984 –> 00:57:50,344
But don’t you think Tommy Hearns is the baddest motherfucker
1696
00:57:50,344 –> 00:57:51,704
ever to walk the streets of Detroit?
1697
00:57:52,744 –> 00:57:54,064
Well, that I’ve seen.
1698
00:57:54,664 –> 00:57:55,064
Okay.
1699
00:57:55,064 –> 00:57:55,904
In my life,
1700
00:57:56,024 –> 00:57:57,064
like watching him,
1701
00:57:57,064 –> 00:57:57,744
because you know,
1702
00:57:57,824 –> 00:57:58,904
I was born in ’72,
1703
00:57:58,904 –> 00:57:59,384
so I…
1704
00:58:00,264 –> 00:58:00,664
I was young,
1705
00:58:00,864 –> 00:58:02,184
but I remember those fights.
1706
00:58:02,424 –> 00:58:03,224
God, they were great,
1707
00:58:03,224 –> 00:58:03,624
weren’t they?
1708
00:58:04,784 –> 00:58:05,264
What’s that?
1709
00:58:05,384 –> 00:58:06,264
They were great.
1710
00:58:07,264 –> 00:58:08,584
No, it’s like real,
1711
00:58:08,664 –> 00:58:10,544
like sort of like hockey fights back in the day.
1712
00:58:11,224 –> 00:58:13,224
Yeah, so just to get it straight,
1713
00:58:14,024 –> 00:58:17,464
you possibly could beat Tommy Hearns on skates.
1714
00:58:17,624 –> 00:58:18,344
Can you swim?
1715
00:58:20,224 –> 00:58:20,704
Can I what?
1716
00:58:20,704 –> 00:58:21,304
Can you swim?
1717
00:58:22,664 –> 00:58:23,304
I can swim.
1718
00:58:23,464 –> 00:58:24,664
Okay, maybe in the pool,
1719
00:58:25,544 –> 00:58:26,944
but definitely not in the alley,
1720
00:58:26,944 –> 00:58:27,304
right?
1721
00:58:27,944 –> 00:58:28,504
I’m talking today,
1722
00:58:28,504 –> 00:58:28,904
not back in.
1723
00:58:28,904 –> 00:58:30,024
I’m talking today.
1724
00:58:30,464 –> 00:58:33,464
That’s what I said.
1725
00:58:33,464 –> 00:58:34,104
How old is he?
1726
00:58:35,784 –> 00:58:36,824
So in your primes,
1727
00:58:36,824 –> 00:58:37,224
no.
1728
00:58:39,784 –> 00:58:40,184
Okay.
1729
00:58:40,584 –> 00:58:41,624
You know, that was so honest,
1730
00:58:41,624 –> 00:58:41,864
bro.
1731
00:58:41,864 –> 00:58:42,944
I’m voting you second.
1732
00:58:42,984 –> 00:58:45,424
Detroit’s most lovable thug.
1733
00:58:45,424 –> 00:58:46,264
Sir, that’s it.
1734
00:58:46,664 –> 00:58:47,464
I’m just there.
1735
00:58:47,784 –> 00:58:52,184
You know, I’m like that brother that or that uncle
1736
00:58:52,184 –> 00:58:54,864
or whatever that like goes in and just.
1737
00:58:55,464 –> 00:58:56,184
gets it done.
1738
00:58:56,184 –> 00:58:57,504
He doesn’t have to be the toughest,
1739
00:58:57,664 –> 00:58:59,464
but the business is going to get taken care of.
1740
00:58:59,784 –> 00:59:00,424
That’s it.
1741
00:59:00,984 –> 00:59:02,824
And you got good edibles.
1742
00:59:04,264 –> 00:59:05,144
Appreciate you.
1743
00:59:05,144 –> 00:59:05,384
Yeah.
1744
00:59:06,344 –> 00:59:06,584
All right.
1745
00:59:06,584 –> 00:59:08,024
We’re topical coming soon.
1746
00:59:08,264 –> 00:59:08,824
Oh, OK.
1747
00:59:08,824 –> 00:59:09,144
Go ahead.
1748
00:59:09,384 –> 00:59:10,304
Give yourself a plug here,
1749
00:59:10,304 –> 00:59:12,344
and then I’ll let you go to get on with your golf.
1750
00:59:12,384 –> 00:59:13,464
And do you golf high?
1751
00:59:13,704 –> 00:59:14,424
Do you golf high?
1752
00:59:16,384 –> 00:59:18,264
Dude, I don’t do anything.
1753
00:59:18,264 –> 00:59:21,424
Not always fully medicated.
1754
00:59:22,504 –> 00:59:23,384
After you’re driving.
1755
00:59:23,624 –> 00:59:25,384
After you’re driving and no firearms,
1756
00:59:27,304 –> 00:59:27,464
right?
1757
00:59:27,464 –> 00:59:28,384
I don’t believe in that.
1758
00:59:28,384 –> 00:59:29,464
Remember, I’m Canadian,
1759
00:59:29,464 –> 00:59:33,624
Charlie, so everybody around me carries,
1760
00:59:33,784 –> 00:59:34,184
not me.
1761
00:59:35,544 –> 00:59:37,144
Oh, the enforcers got enforcers.
1762
00:59:37,224 –> 00:59:37,744
There you go.
1763
00:59:37,744 –> 00:59:38,024
Oh, 100%.
1764
00:59:38,024 –> 00:59:39,224
All right,
1765
00:59:39,944 –> 00:59:41,904
give us a plug on your weed and your edibles.
1766
00:59:42,304 –> 00:59:43,944
There McCarty brand available.
1767
00:59:44,664 –> 00:59:45,744
Jars, Cannabis,
1768
00:59:45,744 –> 00:59:47,064
Skyman, and all this,
1769
00:59:47,864 –> 00:59:50,184
pay attention because the topical,
1770
00:59:50,184 –> 00:59:54,424
the CBD rub and the topicals help all the pain.
1771
00:59:55,064 –> 00:59:55,944
It’s coming soon.
1772
00:59:55,944 –> 00:59:56,824
So I appreciate you,
1773
00:59:56,824 –> 00:59:57,224
Charlie.
1774
00:59:57,224 –> 00:59:57,664
I love you.
1775
00:59:57,664 –> 00:59:58,504
I love what you’re doing.
1776
00:59:58,584 –> 00:59:59,624
I always be sticking up,
1777
01:00:00,424 –> 01:00:00,744
you know,
1778
01:00:01,144 –> 01:00:03,304
for everybody right and wrong.
1779
01:00:03,304 –> 01:00:04,824
So anytime,
1780
01:00:04,984 –> 01:00:05,864
I appreciate the call.
1781
01:00:06,024 –> 01:00:06,704
Thanks, brother.
1782
01:00:06,744 –> 01:00:07,344
Have a good one.
1783
01:00:07,344 –> 01:00:07,944
Good luck today.
1784
01:00:07,944 –> 01:00:09,344
All right,
1785
01:00:09,344 –> 01:00:09,664
thank you.
1786
01:00:09,664 –> 01:00:09,784
Okay.
1787
01:00:10,704 –> 01:00:11,384
Well, that’s settled.
1788
01:00:11,944 –> 01:00:12,744
Well, Mark,
1789
01:00:13,304 –> 01:00:15,624
I hate to blow up your bracket,
1790
01:00:15,624 –> 01:00:16,504
but I mean,
1791
01:00:16,504 –> 01:00:17,784
it was fun while it lasted.
1792
01:00:17,784 –> 01:00:18,664
It’s cool.
1793
01:00:19,064 –> 01:00:20,104
We’ll tell stories.
1794
01:00:21,064 –> 01:00:22,104
Not a chance in life.
1795
01:00:23,704 –> 01:00:24,344
See you next week.
1796
01:00:24,584 –> 01:00:25,144
Keep screaming.
1797
01:00:34,344 –> 01:00:35,064
One more of that,
1798
01:00:35,064 –> 01:00:35,744
did the false suck.
1799
01:00:35,744 –> 01:00:36,424
One more?
1800
01:00:36,424 –> 01:00:36,744
Yeah, you like,
1801
01:00:37,024 –> 01:00:39,304
didn’t look like you were really falling.
1802
01:00:40,904 –> 01:00:41,784
My fall wasn’t good.
1803
01:00:42,584 –> 01:00:43,424
That’s a lot of stairs.
1804
01:00:44,064 –> 01:00:44,904
Atta boy, kid.
1805
01:00:45,544 –> 01:00:47,744
It’s about this big.
1806
01:00:47,744 –> 01:00:48,064
Look at that,
1807
01:00:48,064 –> 01:00:48,264
for $7.
1808
01:00:48,264 –> 01:00:49,104
Oh my God,
1809
01:00:49,104 –> 01:00:49,864
what happened?
1810
01:00:50,304 –> 01:00:50,664
Jeez.
1811
01:00:51,304 –> 01:00:52,024
Keep screaming.
1812
01:01:03,704 –> 01:01:04,504
You’re grunting.
1813
01:01:05,904 –> 01:01:07,464
Papa, that wasn’t really so scary.
1814
01:01:07,704 –> 01:01:08,744
Can I have some ice cream?
1815
01:01:09,384 –> 01:01:10,344
More, more kid.
1816
01:01:10,344 –> 01:01:10,904
Happy kid.
1817
01:01:10,904 –> 01:01:11,264
Happy.
1818
01:01:11,264 –> 01:01:11,784
There you go.
1819
01:01:12,024 –> 01:01:12,664
Happy kid.
1820
01:01:12,744 –> 01:01:12,944
Okay.
1821
01:01:12,944 –> 01:01:22,304
More can be better than that.
