0

67.091 - 88.611 Vince Colonese

I'm going to give you all of the latest on this breaking news as Naeem Bukele, the president of El Salvador, clearly has the left's number here and is playing them like a fiddle. I've got... All of that coming up. Also, it is Good Friday. I want to reflect on the president's efforts to connect with Christians all across the country. The New York Times is kind of upset about this.

0

89.252 - 111.063 Vince Colonese

We'll we'll get into the details there. And I'm going to introduce you to a father who is standing up for his daughter, a man who has a high school girl. who's competing in track and field competitions, but is now being sidelined because a boy is cheating in her sport. I've been calling on fathers to step up.

0

111.623 - 129.493 Vince Colonese

One of them joins me today in a big way with a message to all the other fathers out there to see if we can fight back against this evil, evil trend in the United States of America.

130.034 - 148.071 Vince Colonese

With everything that's happening in the economy right now, it does feel like you can be walking on shaky ground. Prices have been stuck at a really high level, and it does seem like nothing is a You can thank Joe Biden for that. The government spending has been out of control and it's been no wonder that many are relying on credit cards to cover the gaps.

148.431 - 160.638 Vince Colonese

Credit card debt, of course, has skyrocketed. It's reached record levels and it's left a lot of people stressed out. If you're a homeowner, you don't have to face this uncertainty alone. My friends over at American Financing can help you take control.

160.698 - 180.093 Vince Colonese

Call American Financing now. It costs you nothing to get started.

180.313 - 218.391 Vince Colonese

And you may actually delay two mortgage payments, giving you a cushion in this uncertain time. 888-879-6460. That phone number is 888-879-6460. Americanfinancing.net slash Vince, NMLS 182334, NMLSconsumeraccess.org. Real quick, before we jump into everything that the ridiculous Chris Van Hollen is doing now, I do want to say, I was hearing about this movie, King of Kings.

218.431 - 242.826 Vince Colonese

Are you guys familiar with this movie? Is the chat familiar with King of Kings? It's a movie from Angel Studios that is – essentially it's an animated film about the life of Christ as delivered through kind of a storytelling narrative. And it's really good for the kids. I hadn't seen this thing yet. My brother called me last weekend. He had just come out of the movie theater.

Chapter 3: How did El Salvador's President Bukele respond to the meeting with MS-13 and what is the significance?

606.83 - 632.882 Vince Colonese

And sure enough, it came through. He finally got it. And so here's our job. We are going to remind him of this every single day. for the rest of the time that we have the displeasure of having him a part of American politics. Going into these midterms, Democrats are going to have to live with this image because we are not going to let them forget it. That's what's happening here.

0

633.923 - 667.427 Vince Colonese

This is remarkable, the gift that the Democrats have given us here, which is the exposition of their true love which is chaos, which are criminals, MS-13 gangsters importing them into the country. It is wild what we're seeing. Now, the White House has responded to all of this. And so they had a great response to this. They shared the image of... Look at this.

0

668.508 - 669.609 White House Spokesperson

They have the image here of...

0

672.481 - 699.777 Vince Colonese

Van Hollen pawing his way across the table, reaching out, attempting to touch the MS-13 gangster. He's got to be a part of his life. And here is what they did. They posted a photo of President Trump reaching out to comfort Patty Morin. Patty Morin, the mother of Rachel Morin, who was murdered by an illegal alien from El Salvador less than two years ago in Maryland.

0

701.076 - 722.269 Vince Colonese

That's really Chris Van Hollen's constituent. That woman right there, Patty Morin, is actually Chris Van Hollen's constituent. I talked to her yesterday on our national radio show, and I'm telling you the hell that she's been going through, having lost her daughter, now compounded by the fact that her own Democrat senator refuses to even acknowledge that she exists.

724.451 - 728.273 Vince Colonese

And yesterday, Patty told me that she is now on the receiving end

729.321 - 755.916 Vince Colonese

of all sorts of violent threats and phone calls that are pouring into her from the left, which is attacking her for daring to speak up about the callous disregard of her state senator, the terrible behavior of the left, and about speaking up about her daughter's murder at all, the rape and murder of her child, Rachel Morin, who is herself a mother of five kids, a grandmother to one. Now gone.

756.396 - 778.465 Vince Colonese

Patty Morin speaking up on behalf of her entire family, now being attacked by the left. Patty told me yesterday that authorities are investigating those threats to her. And I hope they catch those bastards and they lock them up for what they're doing to this woman. Yeah, a lot of people pointing out in the chat, this is snapshots and soundbites. That's exactly right. Check out these snapshots.

779.626 - 795.051 Vince Colonese

Check out the snapshots here. So you get Patty Morin on the left, being comforted by the president of the United States. And then you get MS-13 gangster on the right being comforted by Democrat Senator Chris Van Hollen. What did the White House say?

Chapter 4: What are the implications of Senator Van Hollen's actions regarding the Logan Act?

1178.996 - 1199.531 Vince Colonese

And then some sort of skull is on that pinky finger. But it does have the shape of kind of a three. Yeah, thanks, fellas, zooming in on that for me. So this is what we're looking at. Now, marijuana, smiley face, that starts us off, M-S-I. What is it? What's the final move here? Is that a one? Is that a three? MS-13.

0

1200.211 - 1222.627 Vince Colonese

Look, if you've got tattoos all over your knuckles and up your arm and, you know, you're caught wearing your Chicago Bulls gear and everyone around you is MS-13 and you have MS-13 informants saying, yeah, you're a ranking member. I don't know how much more clear we can be. But Connie Koa points out here, M for marijuana, S for a smiley face, one as the cross and then three disguised as a skull.

0

1223.48 - 1249.703 Vince Colonese

MS-13, he says, I'm sure it's just another coincidence, like the time he was arrested wearing MS-13 gear alongside known MS-13 members carrying weed and cash. Also wondering, maybe that's the hand that he struck his wife with, who has alleged over and over and over again that this man is a domestic abuser, that he has really hurt her many times.

0

1251.653 - 1277.908 Vince Colonese

The Trump administration says this guy's not coming back. And if Chris Van Hollen comes back at some point, I hope it's with his head hung in shame for what was just done. President Bukele has this guy's number. President Bukele just helped create an image that the Democrats need to have live with them all the way through these elections. You guys gonna help with this? You gonna help with this?

0

1279.531 - 1302.966 Vince Colonese

I think you will. I will. We're going to we're going to remind these guys every single day about what they did. All right. More in a moment. I've got I've got a lot to get to. It's Good Friday. We've got to get to what's going on here. People saying they're all in. Other other people are reminding us the Logan Act here as as you have obviously Chris Van Hollen.

1303.732 - 1320.622 Vince Colonese

is like trying to negotiate with the foreign government at the expense of the United States. I'm telling you with this Logan Act stuff, if you look at the text of the Logan Act, I'll show it to you in just a moment. You look at the text of the Logan Act, you tell me how it's anything but a violation of the Logan Act. You can tell me. We'll do that in just a moment.

Chapter 5: What is the latest on birthright citizenship and the Supreme Court's involvement?

1584.767 - 1593.989 Senator (unknown)

senator and first member of the United States Congress to come here to El Salvador in this case. I certainly will not be the last. There'll be many more coming.

0

1594.609 - 1609.291 Vince Colonese

Many more, many more. And I really hope they do. And all of them should get photo ops. They should do like a team photo or something, you know, have bring out the MS-13 guy, bring out a bunch of them, have a whole bunch of them. They could all stand together. They could all be shoulder to shoulder, buddy, buddy.

0

1609.371 - 1631.35 Vince Colonese

They take their photos, send them right back to the American people and see what the American people do with that. Please keep it up, fellas. You're doing great work. These giant in-kind contributions to the Republican National Committee. Thank you for that. Of course, all done at taxpayer expense. Hey, let me – I want to get to another issue here, which is birthright citizenship, which is insane.

0

1631.37 - 1653.881 Vince Colonese

You realize how crazy it is? The 14th Amendment to the Constitution was designed – To address the 13th, 14th and 15th amendments to the Constitution were all designed to address the lives of African-Americans in the United States, former slaves. That's what the 13th, 14th and 15th amendments are dedicated to.

0

1654.902 - 1674.414 Vince Colonese

And the 14th Amendment in particular, which offers, of course, equal protection under the law. established that if you were born in the United States, this was for former slaves, we're not going to consider you less than. You are an American citizen. That's what the 14th Amendment means. That's the whole point of the 14th Amendment.

1674.874 - 1699.663 Vince Colonese

It is not for Chinese tourists to come to the United States, pop out a baby, and then have an American citizen. That's insanity that that's the case, and yet it has been the case. through the way that our government operates and this ridiculous interpretation of the 14th Amendment. So it was President Trump who finally came out and said, wait a second, this is insanity.

1699.683 - 1717.586 Vince Colonese

And by executive order said, we're going to interpret the 14th Amendment the way it was supposed to be interpreted. and say, there's no such thing. Only American citizens can have American citizens. Only people who are here legally can. You can't do this illegally. You can't come to the United States and just come across the border just visiting. That doesn't work that way.

1717.666 - 1743.513 Vince Colonese

You don't get American citizens that way. And so this is already, this is now fast-tracking towards the United States Supreme Court. Thank goodness. The United States Supreme Court yesterday indicating that they are agreeing to hear the president's bid, to tackle birthright citizenship restrictions. This is going to be a massive, massive story.

1744.294 - 1755.107 Vince Colonese

Massive story, a massive opportunity before the court. The Supreme Court agreed Thursday to consider the Trump administration's request to implement its restrictions on birthright citizenship while litigation continues.

Chapter 6: How does President Trump interpret the 14th Amendment in relation to birthright citizenship?

1756.149 - 1775.138 Vince Colonese

While the justices delayed deciding the Trump administration's request to block lower court orders preventing the president's executive order from taking effect, they scheduled oral arguments to consider the issue for May 15th. We're now less than a month away from oral arguments on this case. It is awesome. And –

0

1776.084 - 1787.951 Vince Colonese

This is where your prayers need to be lifted up that sanity prevails on that United States Supreme Court. And we don't get some sidewinders. We don't get Amy Coney Barrett fleeing to the left again. We don't get John Roberts fleeing over the left.

0

1788.311 - 1812.706 Vince Colonese

We got to keep these guys locked in on what's right for the country, which is a sane system that only gives American citizenship to people who are actually supposed to be American citizens and not people who are exploiting our system and cheating in it. The president, responded to this yesterday, cut six. He found out the news from a reporter who straight up told him about it.

0

1813.106 - 1819.531 Vince Colonese

And he instantly began describing the history of the 14th Amendment, which, of course, the media never talks about. Take a look at President Trump.

0

1820.252 - 1832.403 Donald Trump

A short time ago, the Supreme Court agreed to hear oral arguments in the case about ending birthright citizenship. How confident are you that the court will rule in your favor and allow that order to end birthright citizenship to go forth?

1832.583 - 1858.225 Commentator

Well, you're just telling me that for the first I am so happy. I think the case has been so misunderstood. That case, birthright citizenship, is about slavery. If you look at the details of it, the signings of it, everything else, that case is all about slavery. And if you view it from that standpoint, people understand it. But for some reason, the lawyers don't talk about it.

1858.406 - 1869.634 Commentator

The news doesn't talk about it. That's not about tourists coming in and touching a piece of sand and all of a sudden they're a citizenship. You know, they're a citizen. That is all about slavery.

1871.235 - 1892.228 Vince Colonese

Yes, it's all about slavery. One more piece of evidence to support what the president just said. The left likes to say, well, ever since the passage of the 14th Amendment, anybody born on U.S. soil therefore becomes an American citizen. That's not true. In fact, in 1924, the United States Congress passed something called the Indian Citizenship Act. Indian Citizenship Act.

Chapter 7: Why was the Indian Citizenship Act of 1924 necessary despite the 14th Amendment?

1892.668 - 1918.671 Vince Colonese

The point of that law was to confirm, was to declare going forward that Indian Native Americans would be considered American citizens under the law beginning in 1924. Why would that law need to be passed if the 14th Amendment conferred citizenship at birth to anybody who was born inside of our borders? It wouldn't. They wouldn't have needed to pass it at all.

0

1919.827 - 1942.319 Vince Colonese

So our our present day demented interpretation of the 14th Amendment is now due for a long overdue correction. And President Trump fighting right now to get that fixed. So that's fantastic. Fantastic news. Glad to see the president fighting for it. Glad to see the United States Supreme Court taking it up. And maybe we can get this thing finally resolved in a moment.

0

1942.339 - 1967.613 Vince Colonese

We're going to talk to a father who has been dealing with absolute garbage. as a boy has been cheating in his daughter's sport and is ruining the entire high school competitive league.
