Charlie Kirk Exposes ACLU's Anthony Romero Pushing Cities to Sever Federal Ties Over Immigration Enforcement

[00:01] it's it's hard to even describe what

[00:03] we're about to watch here this is Rachel

[00:06] mattow with the head of the

[00:09] ACLU and this is beyond typical tactics

[00:12] of what the American civil liberties

[00:13] Union traditionally would advocate for

[00:16] usually they say okay we'll do some

[00:17] lawsuits to make sure that you don't

[00:19] Deport some

[00:20] people this is Anthony

[00:23] Romero Anthony Romero in this clip with

[00:26] Rachel mat on

[00:28] MSNBC is talking about how they're going

[00:31] to work with City and local governments

[00:36] to sever their relationships with the

[00:38] federal government Anthony Romero is

[00:40] talking about widespread secession from

[00:44] the United States to protect the

[00:47] foreign who have come into the United

[00:49] States and then pardon millions of

[00:54] illegals this would be the greatest

[00:58] schism severing

[01:01] since the American Civil War prove me

[01:04] wrong he calls it a firewall of freedom

[01:08] I call it the Confederacy

[01:10] 2.0 Anthony Romero is talking about

[01:14] building micro confederacies across the

[01:18] country if you think I am exaggerating

[01:21] listen carefully take out your notebook

[01:23] and take

[01:26] notes this is Anthony Romero otherwise

[01:30] wise known as Jefferson Davis play Cut

[01:33] 32 well local governments you know the

[01:36] State Attorneys General the governors

[01:38] the Mayors we have this whole plan

[01:40] around a firewall for Freedom we call it

[01:42] when they're going to try to detain and

[01:43] Deport all these hundreds of thousands

[01:46] up up to a million people that's a an

[01:49] operation that they have the legal power

[01:50] to do to do the raids but the logistics

[01:54] and they're going to need Mayors and

[01:57] governors or City councils to either

[02:00] them access to police officers or not

[02:03] jails we you going to house all these

[02:05] folks right and so part of what we're

[02:07] doing is we're preparing executive

[02:08] orders and we're organizing our folks to

[02:11] put pressures on elected officials so

[02:13] they don't roll over they should sever

[02:16] these relationships they have with the

[02:17] federal government on immigration

[02:18] enforcement they should make sure that

[02:20] our prisons and our and our jails are

[02:22] off limits they should begin to think

[02:24] about what actions they could take to

[02:27] Pardon immigrants who have a criminal

[02:30] record because they drove in a suspended

[02:32] license well let's take them out of

[02:33] Harm's Way they could do that now let's

[02:35] commute they could do that now the

[02:37] transition

[02:39] yes all right Anthony Romero you want to

[02:41] play hard ball you're going to sever the

[02:43] relationship the federal government how

[02:44] are you going to feed your communities

[02:46] without snap or food stamps food stamps

[02:49] cut how about EBT cut Medicaid cut you

[02:54] all of a sudden want to sever yourself

[02:55] no money for schools no money for police

[02:58] hey medicare payment you want to all of

[03:00] a sudden play this game how about for

[03:02] the elderly people in elderly care

[03:06] facilities in

[03:07] Philadelphia that are receiving Medicare

[03:10] you want to sever from the United States

[03:12] of America this is secessionist talk

[03:15] from Anthony Romero and Rachel matow is

[03:17] cheering it on oh they could do it now

[03:20] if Democrat leaders try to make Jail off

[03:22] limits for illegals facing deportation

[03:25] we should make it so that the jails

[03:27] aren't off limits for the leaders

[03:29] themselves

[03:30] if states and cities revolt against

[03:32] immigration

[03:33] enforcement it needs to be a complete

[03:36] cut off of federal

[03:39] funds there was an event in the 1800s

[03:41] called The Nullification Crisis South

[03:43] Carolina thought they could just end and

[03:45] ignore a federal law well look how that

[03:47] ended and by the way the the American

[03:50] people are against any city that is

[03:52] doing this they are not playing with

[03:54] house money here this kind of chatter is

[03:57] incredibly unpopular we have a mandate

[03:59] won the popular vote 312 electoral votes

[04:02] they've been screaming years about an

[04:03] Insurrection because of a couple senior

[04:06] citizens with pocket constitutions want

[04:08] to go prey in the capital runda

[04:10] meanwhile they're openly planning a

[04:12] revolt against federal law saying we

[04:14] have to sever ourselves away from the

[04:16] federal government who can play this

[04:17] game Social Security cut Medicare cut

[04:21] you all a sudden don't want money

[04:22] flowing into La San

[04:24] Francisco within a couple of days San

[04:28] Francisco LA Seattle and Portland would

[04:30] collapse this is think about how sick

[04:32] these ideas are pardon the criminal

[04:36] immigrants for their crimes just so that

[04:38] they can say that these criminals stay

[04:40] in America these are criminals he's

[04:43] talking about wiping the record clean of

[04:45] driving Under the

[04:46] Influence a DUI that might kill

[04:50] somebody they want America ruined by

[04:53] Foreign

[04:54] criminals they want criminals to wreck

[04:57] it they spent over 500 million on

[05:00] illegals in Chicago so now they have to

[05:01] raise taxes but they're planning on

[05:04] federal money to make ends meat that

[05:06] dog's not going to hunt anymore you said

[05:08] that Anthony Romero not us you said we

[05:11] have to disconnect on immigration well

[05:13] that doesn't work that way you don't get

[05:14] to choose what parts of the government

[05:15] you want to show up and which ones you

[05:17] don't it's either you are going to be

[05:19] part of a national small r republican

[05:22] project or not and Rachel mattow just

[05:25] nodding

[05:26] along you declare this form of session

[05:29] it will not end well for

[05:31] you Confederacy 2.0 we'll be right

[05:34] back joining us now is Cory lowski who's

[05:37] doing great work for the Republic right

[05:39] now Corey great to see you uh senior

[05:42] adviser to president Trump amongst many

[05:44] other things Corey your thoughts on that

[05:46] tape that I played in the last segment

[05:48] of Anthony Romero talking about how CIS

[05:52] are disconnecting from the federal

[05:54] government what is your thoughts on that

[05:57] hey Charlie let me just be crystal clear

[05:59] Tom Holman has a job to do and he has

[06:02] been empowered by the president of the

[06:04] United States to go in and find the

[06:06] fallons who are in these cities in these

[06:08] municipalities and if these cities think

[06:11] that they're going to have the

[06:12] opportunity to just say we're not going

[06:13] to participate or you're not welcome

[06:15] here they do not understand the resolve

[06:18] of President Trump or Tom Holan to rid

[06:21] these criminals from our communities it

[06:23] is going to be done with or without the

[06:25] support of the local individuals or

[06:28] those elected officials because the

[06:29] American people have been very clear

[06:31] about this get rid of the felons get rid

[06:33] of the illegals in this country and do

[06:35] it

[06:37] quickly so it's just the idea that

[06:40] they're going to sever ties can you

[06:42] speak Corey about how in the first Trump

[06:45] Administration a lot of the difficult

[06:48] legal uh leg work was done uh remain in

[06:51] Mexico title 42 meaning that there there

[06:54] was years and years of getting this

[06:56] stuff to the courts in some ways the

[06:58] table is really set for a mass

[07:01] deportation Force do you agree with that

[07:03] and walk us through what Steven Miller

[07:06] Tom homman uh soon DHS secretary

[07:08] Christine Nome will be able to do to

[07:11] help fulfill this Mass deportation

[07:15] effort well first and foremost Charlie

[07:17] look the most powerful tool we have in

[07:18] our toolbox is Donald John Trump and his

[07:21] truth message that says when it Clos the

[07:23] Border uh clearly had an impact because

[07:26] Justin Trudeau made a pilgrimage down to

[07:28] Mara Lago to talk to him we know that he

[07:31] had a conversation with the president of

[07:33] Mexico and she said we will help close

[07:35] that border because the first thing to

[07:37] do is to close our border the next thing

[07:39] we're going to do and people don't

[07:40] remember this but part of the first

[07:43] Trump 1.0 success was the appointing of

[07:46] federal judges who understand the

[07:48] Constitution those judges are going to

[07:50] be challenged by the left in the ACLU

[07:52] saying you cannot Deport these people

[07:55] because some of them are American

[07:57] citizens here's what the president has

[07:59] said and he was very clear about this on

[08:01] Meet the Press he said if you are part

[08:03] of a family or an extended family and

[08:06] you want to stay with that family and

[08:07] part of your family members are felons

[08:10] they are going to be leaving this

[08:11] country and you can choose to leave with

[08:13] them or you can choose to stay but

[08:15] that'll be decision you make but we are

[08:17] not going to be held hostage because

[08:19] children are going to be separated from

[08:20] felons who are in this country illegally

[08:22] so closing the border the deportation is

[08:25] going to occur we've got over a million

[08:27] people in this country who have finally

[08:29] deportation orders meaning they have

[08:31] nowhere else to go the courts have

[08:33] adjudicated this they say you have to

[08:34] leave this country we're going to go

[08:36] find those people I'm going to remove

[08:38] them immediately that's the first step

[08:40] after we get the felons the rapists the

[08:41] murderers out of this country so Charlie

[08:43] that alone is almost two million people

[08:46] who are running around our communities

[08:49] doing no good that we're going to find

[08:50] and we're going to deport very

[08:52] quickly and Corey can you speak to this

[08:55] a couple concerns that it does us no

[08:58] good to return some to Venezuela if

[09:00] they're going to come back in 6 months

[09:02] that it's necessary to then of course

[09:04] have a secure militarized Border in

[09:07] addition to the deportation force will

[09:09] both of those things be working in

[09:11] tandem absolutely listen on day one

[09:14] January 20th after Donald Trump takes

[09:15] his hand off of that Bible the border is

[09:17] going to be closed both the northern and

[09:19] the southern border and here's what

[09:20] we're also going to do Charlie we're

[09:22] going to let people around the world

[09:23] know you can't come to this country

[09:25] illegally anymore so if you're in this

[09:27] country illegally and you want to self-

[09:28] deport I recommend you do that because

[09:30] if we have to come get you you won't

[09:32] have the privilege to come back to the

[09:33] greatest country the world has ever

[09:35] known you want to self the port get in

[09:36] line and come back in the right way by

[09:38] all means we want you if you try to come

[09:40] to this country illegally the Border

[09:42] will be closed we have a process just

[09:45] like every other industrialized country

[09:47] in the world has a process to come to

[09:49] this country legally you follow that

[09:51] process and we want you you try to come

[09:53] illegally we will stop you the Border

[09:55] will be closed the men and women of the

[09:57] Customs and Border Patrol have new

[09:58] mission coming their mission is to

[10:00] prevent uh illegals from coming into

[10:02] this country and to protect the Homeland

[10:04] they are excited about it we're seeing

[10:06] the excitement across the people who had

[10:08] the opportunity to retire under the

[10:10] Biden Administration they're saying now

[10:12] that Trump is coming we want to stay

[10:13] we're seeing that in the military we're

[10:15] seeing that the border with the ice

[10:16] people with Tom Holman people are coming

[10:19] back from government service who have

[10:20] retired because they want to do

[10:22] something great for this country and so

[10:24] the Border will be closed and people

[10:25] will be getting out very

[10:27] quickly yeah speak even deeper that the

[10:29] morale is actually increasing I mean

[10:31] I've had the opportunity to just meet a

[10:33] couple of the rank and file in the last

[10:34] couple of weeks uh this weekend actually

[10:36] at America Fest uh we're going to have

[10:39] the acting president of the border

[10:41] patrol Council there and they're

[10:43] thrilled you said something really

[10:45] noteworthy Corey can you just

[10:47] contextualize that further and deepen it

[10:50] that people are forgoing an easy

[10:52] retirement to continue on this effort

[10:54] tell us more about that you know Charlie

[10:57] over the last four or five weeks since

[10:59] president Trump has one I've had the

[11:00] opportunity to talk to a number of

[11:02] people who have the opportunity to

[11:04] retire from federal service who say you

[11:06] know what because Donald Trump is coming

[11:07] in we'd like the privilege to stay this

[11:10] is what our mission has always been we

[11:12] got into the law enforcement Community

[11:14] to go out and get bad guys to protect

[11:16] our communities and our neighbors and

[11:17] our friends and by UNH handcuffing Us by

[11:21] giving us the opportunity to get away

[11:22] from our desk jobs and going back into

[11:24] the field we want to do that the other

[11:26] thing we've seen Charlie is a massive

[11:28] outpour of recently retired officers who

[11:32] said I've done 10 20 25 years let me

[11:35] come back into government service so

[11:36] that we can be assistance immediately

[11:39] there's a very small amount of training

[11:41] that they have to go back through and

[11:42] we're also seeing massive increases in

[11:45] our recruiting efforts so those

[11:47] individuals who go to the flexi the

[11:49] federal law enforcement Trading Academy

[11:51] are saying let us come to border patrol

[11:53] now that we know that we'll be able to

[11:55] do our jobs because for the last four

[11:57] years we've been desk jockey we're going

[11:59] to put more officers on the street we're

[12:01] going to make sure that our borders are

[12:03] safe those ice agents are going to go

[12:04] out and find the bad guys and our

[12:06] communities are going to be better for

[12:09] it so so Corey now let's let's talk uh

[12:12] more broadly about threats against the

[12:15] Homeland that we are seeing it's not

[12:17] just the quantity of people but there

[12:19] are some potential very very dangerous

[12:21] people as far as Chinese agents or

[12:24] Iranians that might have slipped through

[12:28] what department is responsible for

[12:29] identifying these people and do you

[12:31] think our government currently even

[12:32] knows the bad ombres that are currently

[12:35] domicil themselves in the interior of

[12:37] the United

[12:38] States know Charlie I think they know I

[12:41] think the government has been complicit

[12:42] in this they've allowed this to happen

[12:44] you know I hate to give any credit to 60

[12:46] minutes because they're a terrible

[12:47] organization but they catalog the whole

[12:49] thing of these you know these Chinese uh

[12:51] individuals coming in these military age

[12:53] males coming in very they're calling in

[12:55] Uber and saying come pick me up of

[12:57] course the government knows what's going

[12:58] on they've chosen to do nothing about it

[13:00] as it relates to Iran and our enemies we

[13:03] know what's going on but but these law

[13:05] enforcement officials have been

[13:07] handcuffed they've been styed from going

[13:09] out and stopping it those days are

[13:11] coming to an end in five weeks when

[13:12] Donald Trump puts his hand on that Bible

[13:14] and then what's going to happen is we

[13:15] will use every resource available to us

[13:17] we will identify those foreign Nationals

[13:20] those people who are here as allegedly

[13:22] foreign students who were supposed to be

[13:23] doing you know college work who are who

[13:25] are basically problems coming into this

[13:27] country and anybody who's in this

[13:29] country illegally the US Customs and

[13:31] Immigration Services has a record of all

[13:33] of these people the people who' have

[13:35] oversay their visas who shouldn't be

[13:36] here the potential criminal aliens we're

[13:38] going to find these people they're going

[13:40] to be out of this country very quickly

[13:41] and our communi is going to be

[13:44] safer so uh so Corey can you just uh

[13:47] talk more broadly about the team that

[13:49] President Trump is assembling um how

[13:52] bold how dyamic and how issue ready it

[13:56] is uh both of us have the opportunity to

[13:58] kind of be around some of the energy of

[14:01] the transition can you speak to how this

[14:04] is a day one minute one second one

[14:07] prepared

[14:09] operation you know Charlie I've had the

[14:11] opportunity to talk to uh if not all of

[14:13] most of the members of the president

[14:15] incoming cabinet and one thing they have

[14:17] in common is they have a backbone of

[14:20] titanium they are ready for this war

[14:22] that we have been preparing for and I

[14:23] call it a war Charlie because when it

[14:25] looks to the mainstream Media or the

[14:27] left they're going to come after us was

[14:29] every single thing possible and the

[14:31] difference in this term from what it was

[14:34] eight years ago when Donald Trump to

[14:35] Trum Trump took over was the people are

[14:38] ready he is surrounding himself with

[14:40] Fighters and I mean that in a very

[14:42] positive way people who have the same

[14:44] vision as Donald Trump I spoke to one of

[14:46] our uh nominees yesterday who said he's

[14:48] already met with 11 US senators he's

[14:51] back on the hill this week and he's got

[14:52] about 40 people already for his

[14:55] particular agency ready to go on day one

[14:57] January 20th to walk in the door and

[15:00] tell the bureaucrats there is a new

[15:02] sheriff in town and and and I'm sure

[15:04] your listeners saw this Joe Biden signed

[15:07] an executive order that gave federal

[15:09] government employees I think five years

[15:10] to continue to work from home I hope and

[15:13] I'm very hopeful that the president

[15:15] resends that on day one and says listen

[15:17] if you want to continue to get paid by

[15:19] our taxpaying dollars then you better

[15:20] get your butt into the office every

[15:22] single day like everybody in the private

[15:24] sector does that is the mindset of all

[15:27] of his cabinet nominees of all of his

[15:29] executive team look when cash Patel

[15:31] comes into the FBI they know that real

[15:35] fundamental and wholesale changes com

[15:36] into that organization and it's long

[15:41] overdue um Corey how can people support

[15:43] you and get behind what you are doing

[15:45] and do you plan to go into the

[15:46] administration Cory I don't even know

[15:48] this the answer to this question you

[15:50] know Charlie I think I'm probably best

[15:52] on the outside I'm not really much of a

[15:54] rule follower as you know there's a lot

[15:55] of rules in the federal government and

[15:57] so I've had a great priv

[15:59] to to be outside and help the president

[16:01] he's got a lot of priorities that I want

[16:03] to help him achieve uh and I'm always

[16:05] best to do that I think from the outside

[16:06] so listen you can find me on true social

[16:08] you can find me on ex's just C lowski

[16:11] uncore uh is the best place but guys

[16:14] we've got a huge opportunity in front of

[16:15] us all that you're doing Charlie all

[16:17] that the Maga movement is doing we have

[16:20] to hold these US senators accountable we

[16:22] must force them to get our nominees

[16:24] through very quickly because if we don't

[16:26] the Biden Administration stays on board

[16:29] past January 20th if our nominees are

[16:30] not

[16:32] confirmed Corey excellent thank you so

[16:34] much for your time you're welcome

[16:35] anytime you're fighting really hard you

[16:37] and me both are going to be on the

[16:38] outside you and me both so uh very good

[16:41] Corey thank you
