Z-biotics pre-alcohol is the world's first genetically engineered probiotic invented by PhD scientists to help you feel better the morning after drinking. And here's why it works, okay? Because when you drink, alcohol turns into a toxic byproduct right in your gut. It is that buildup. It's not dehydration. That's what causes those rough mornings.

49.892 - 70.256 Don Lemon

Z-biotics pre-alcohol produces an enzyme that breaks all of that down for you. It breaks that byproduct down. So I make it my first drink of the night. I drink responsibly and I enjoy my evening and I wake up feeling like myself again. And you can too. I first tried it before dinner with friends, took it before my first cocktail. And the next morning it felt clear. I felt focused and on my game.

Chapter 2: Why are deaths occurring in ICE detention facilities?

85.79 - 116.363 Don Lemon

All righties, who's the judgy person in the chat? I read those chats, by the way, that says, don't drink. Everything in moderation. Remember, you know, water into wine. People go to communion, wine. Don't be so judgy. Anyways, welcome, everybody. Good morning. Someone said afternoon. Oh, from London. From London, Bomberino is in London. Welcome. Aloha from Seattle, Washington.

116.403 - 127.26 Don Lemon

Good morning, everybody. Hi, Lemonheads. How are you? I've got all black on. What's that little speck right? What do I have on my hat? Something from being in my suitcase.

Chapter 3: What conditions are ICE detainees facing?

127.32 - 147.748 Don Lemon

There we go. Anyways, good morning, everybody. How's it going? How are you? What's happening in your world? You know the order of business. Tell me what the order of business is every morning. Tell me what the order of business. You guys notice that I wipe my glasses a lot. Let me tell you why. It's going to sound weird. You tell me what the order of business is while I do this.

0

147.868 - 169.725 Don Lemon

This sounds weird, but here's the truth. So I wipe my glasses a lot. One, because it gets smudged. But two, because this is weird. My eyelash. Hits the inside of the glass. Anybody else have that? And so whatever's on my eyelash, which is just face cream or whatever it is that I put on or just regular old body oil, it gets on my glasses.

Chapter 4: How is accountability addressed in ICE cases?

169.906 - 188.334 Don Lemon

So I kept noticing, why am I doing that? And then I noticed when I put my glasses on, because I have these little things because they slide down, my eyeglass or if I push them up, my eyelash hits the lens and then I can't see out of it. which is probably something like most people, women would like to have.

0

189.336 - 212.133 Don Lemon

I don't know if you have that, but anyway, because my eyelashes, I guess they're kind of long. And so they hit the inside of my glasses and I have to constantly wipe them. Also because I have a very tiny bridge on my nose after the plastic surgery, like Michael Jackson. Kidding, I'm not at plastic surgery at all. But the glasses always slide down. So there you go.

0

212.153 - 232.015 Don Lemon

Oh, imagine mascara, someone says. So you guys have that same problem. So that's what happens. And that's why I keep taking my glasses off, and I keep cleaning them, and I can't see. Oh my gosh, someone's from Dublin this morning. Northern Ireland. You guys are there. Why do you guys like us? Someone said Japan? Is that true?

Chapter 5: What are the implications of the medical examiner's findings?

232.973 - 256.059 Don Lemon

Why do people like us? I mean, we're like on the streets and people are, you know, New York, lots of people visit from different countries and all over. People stop me and say, I'm from here. I'm from here. Blah, blah, blah. That's what I would like to know where from. OK, so thank you. Welcome to our new members. Welcome to Devin Morgan, 8350. So glad that you're here.

256.439 - 272.313 Don Lemon

Because of Chantel ZP's generosity, 10 people get to become members of Elimination. William Collin, 607, is a new member. Welcome to the Elimination. So happy Friday, everyone. There are the doggies. They're just coming back from their walk. Boomer, come here.

275.215 - 279.659 Don Lemon

Say hi to the people. Ah, he thinks he's going to get a treat after walking out.

Chapter 6: How do advocates respond to ICE's actions?

280.42 - 301.038 Don Lemon

Okay. Oh, now I know what happened. I'm going to tell you what's happening in my house right now. So the dogs came home from the walk. Gus is eating while they go out for a walk because Gus is a senior and it's really, really cold. And so he didn't go out this morning. But Boomer and Barkley came back. Barkley knows Gus is probably done eating and left food in the bowl.

0

301.058 - 328.692 Don Lemon

And he ran in there and Tim went in to grab the bowl so that Barkley would need all of Gus's food. Do you guys care? Maybe you don't. I'm just telling you. Good afternoon from Switzerland. Bye. Have a great day. Bye. So, boys, he's gone. It's just me, Boomer. So, good morning, everybody. Look, I am... It's a good morning somewhat, but...

Chapter 7: What role do local officials play in immigration enforcement?

330.342 - 358.29 Don Lemon

Not good for the people in Minnesota, not good for many people in our country who are being rounded up, roughed up, and detained. ICE killed another person. At least that's what a judge's ruling likely happened. Medical examiner, excuse me, not a judge, the medical examiner likely to classify death of ICE detainee as a homicide. That's what call says. A fellow detainee says he witnessed...

358.405 - 383.232 Don Lemon

Geraldo, Geraldo Lunas Campos being choked to death by guards at an ICE detention center in Texas on January 3rd. Scroll into this. I want to read, okay? And make sure you hit the like and the thumbs up. That's the order of business. That's the order of business that you have to, in order for us to stay viable, it affects the algorithm. More people become aware of our

383.6 - 402.25 Don Lemon

conversation here, okay, and of our channel. When U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement announced the January 3rd death of detainee Geraldo Lunas Campos at a Texas detention camp, the agency said staff observed him in distress and it gave no cause of death.

0

402.297 - 419.462 Don Lemon

An employee of El Paso County's Office of the Medical Examiner told Luna Scampo's daughter this week that subject to result of toxicology report, the office is likely to classify the death as a homicide according to a recording of the conversation.

0

420.691 - 437.455 Don Lemon

In the recording, which the daughter shared with the Washington Post, the employee said that a doctor there is listing the preliminary cause of death as asphyxia due to neck and chest compression, which means Lunas Campos did not get enough oxygen because of pressure on his neck and chest.

437.475 - 451.35 Don Lemon

Pending the result of a toxicology report, the staffer said on the recording, our doctor is believing that we're going to be listing the matter of death as homicide. That's where we are.

Chapter 8: What can listeners do to support the cause?

451.43 - 473.431 Don Lemon

He's a 55-year-old Cuban immigrant. He died following a struggle with detention staff. That's according to an eyewitness account of an internal ICE document reviewed by the Post. A representative from the medical examiner declined to comment on the recording or share any findings about the man's death with the Post, saying that information can only be shared with family members.

474.012 - 497.709 Don Lemon

This is outrageous. This is outrageous. And this is what I said. You cannot I can't believe anything from the Homeland Department of Homeland Security. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. They have no credibility. They have no credibility. They say one thing. The video shows another. They say one thing. The evidence shows another. They say one thing. The reports show another.

0

497.729 - 511.382 Don Lemon

And they just stand there and lie and lie and lie. And I'm sick of it. And you should be sick of it. In an email Thursday evening, Tricia McLaughlin, the assistant secretary for the Department of Homeland Security, said that Lunas Campos died after attempting to take his own life.

0

514.507 - 545.955 Don Lemon

Now, I don't know a medical examiner if someone died and there's evidence of them taking their own life that they would say it's a homicide. They would say it's another side, but it's not homicide. It would be a suicide. It's unbelievable. They said, this is a quote from them, Campos violently resisted the security staff and continued to attempt to take his life, McLaughlin said.

0

546.315 - 565.464 Don Lemon

During the ensuing struggle, Campos stopped breathing and lost consciousness. Medical staff was immediately called and responded. After repeated attempts to resuscitate him, EMTs declared him deceased on the scene. McLaughlin declined to provide additional documentation, calling the matter an active investigation. Outrageous.

565.824 - 594.866 Don Lemon

A homicide ruling from the medical examiner would almost certainly draw attention to Camp East Montana, a colossal makeshift tent encampment on the Mexican border where migrants have reported sustained conditions and physical abuse, and ICE's own inspectors have cited dozens of violations of federal detention standards. This isn't the first one.

594.906 - 621.677 Don Lemon

This is not the first time or first facility that people have said that folks are being mistreated, the conditions are awful. This would not be the first time. Now, you guys remember a couple weeks ago, actually, I think it was last week or the week before, we had on a woman and her boyfriend. I'm not sure if it was her husband. I forget.

621.697 - 633.758 Don Lemon

But her partner, they had been stopped in Texas or at least stopped on a traffic stop. He was taken to a facility in Texas. He talked about how horrible the conditions were.

635.932 - 659.899 Don Lemon

And I thought that this person didn't get medical treatment when the Washington Post thing, but I was a little blurry eyed because this person also talks about the conditions, but he also talks about not getting the inhumane conditions, but also not getting medical attention. Being denied medication. And staff not responding when people were in pain or being hurt.
