Welcome to the Freedom Hunt Wednesday, September fourteenth edition of the program. Appreciate you being with me. We have the Biden celebration at a moment where there should be no celebration of the economy at all. Bring you some moments from that just yesterday where it was clear that things are not going

as this White House would like them too. We've also got more from the border. They said it was secure. Kamala Harris told us specifically among other Democrats that was secure earlier in the week. That is certainly not the case. And the live action version of The Little Mermaid stars a black actress. This is creating a lot of discussion online. We will dive into oh, dive into Little Mermaid. Dive into that together coming up here in just a moment.

They had the FBI go chase down Mike Lindell. Mike's been talking about this. Chase down Mike Lindell and take his cell phone. And we believe this is part of the flurry of subpoenas that have been sent out there. The subpoena is sent with regard to either mar Lago

or January sixth, or both the mor Lago documents. It's not clear exactly what the Democrat endgame is here, but it is clear what the opening salvo is Man, and that's just a it's meant to freak people out. It's meant to send a message. It's meant to make you really concerned about what happens if you stand with Donald Trump.

What happens if you are an outspoken conservative who in the case of Mike Lindell, who's been a long time friend and sponsor of Man, who sponsors a lot of great content online, Mike Lindell having a cell phone taken from about the FBI at a Hearties. In fact, here we have Mike telling you exactly what happened day the FBI. You're gonna hear this, and you're probably already hearing in the news. The FBI came after me and took my phone. They surrounded me at the Hearties and took my phone,

and I run all my business everything with um. They could have just do what we've done, is weaponize the FBI is disgusting I don't have a computer. Everything I do have that phone. Everything was on there, and and they told me not to tell anybody there's in order not to don't tell anybody. Okay, I won't. I am don't tell anybody. Well, clearly Mike is not gonna take that bit of advice. He's not going to listen to them on that one. Why would the FBI take Mike's phone?

First of all, he runs his business, as he said, as from his phone. So this is a huge inconvenient it's a huge invasion of privacy. What possible justification for this could there be? Mike obviously has nothing to do with the Mari Lago documents, not that we're aware of. I don't think anyone believes Mike get anything to do

with that. So is this about speaking to the White House in the aftermath of the twenty twenty election and trying to criminalize what is effectively debate over how the election, well, first of all, any irregularities or cheating the election, how to find that, what the electors should do in response to that, making a legal argument, which even if people don't like whatever the electors debate was after the election, making a legal argument cannot be made ilegal in this

country if we want to say that we have a free country. Right, if you're going to say the constitution protects the following, Okay, maybe it doesn't. Maybe you're wrong, and that's what the final disposition maybe, but you got to be able to make that case. If you can make that case, then how are we in a free country If you can't make an argument that you believe the laws on your side. I mean, what's next. We've got to criminalize defense attorneys. All this person is clearly guilty.

Look at all the Look at all the stuff being said in court that's not true about what happened here. We got to throw all the defense attorneys in prison. I mean, I know some people are probably a cheering sing yes, throw all the defenses. I walked into that one, but you know what I mean, it's absurd. But the message that is sent here is very clear. The message is, at a minimum, you step out of line and we

will crush you. You step out of line and we will be visiting you, taking your phone and maybe making you get lawyers. A lot of expense, a lot of anxiety. You know, the FBI shown up for the average person saying we're taking your stuff. It's gonna make them really uncomfortable. Now, Mike is a high profile guy. He's got friends and allies like me and so many others on the conservative media.

You obviously knows former President Trump personally well, so he's not just an everyday guy in that sense, although he was having dinner at a Hearties. You know, Mike is the real deal. You know, he's a real a real salt of the earth American's a good man. But you know, the fact that they would get away with this, this

obvious intimidation in the rought up to an election. Keep in mind, this is a major sponsor of conservative content, like I said, including me, including my shows, and the fact that they would do this right before an election is clearly infringing upon the free media ecosystem that we need here to be able to get the truth out

and have people make their cases to the public. So and then it just reminds me if they're willing to go to this length or these lengths, what makes anybody think that they're not actually going to they're not actually going to prosecute Trump. You know, they're really forcing us, They're forcing us to here, They're they're going into a position where Trump, if he doesn't get prosecuted, it's essentially an admission that all this was political, and all of

this was you know, nonsense, underhanded gamesmanship from the Libs. Okay, that's one part of it. And if they do prosecute him, yes, it would be flimsy, it would be the worst kind

of third world dictator politics. But they're crazy, So I can't exclude the possibility, right, I mean, if you're if I'm gonna sit around here all the time say the Libs are nuts, which I do, how can I then turn around and tell you, well, reason will prevail here and they won't actually bring some charge um and you know,

they bring an obstruction charge. For example, Julie Kelly, who I've been talking to about this on the radio show, she says that that what she thinks they're going to do, obstruction, which is interesting because for the lib audience that CNN and these other places, they've been trained to think that obstruction was what they were going to get Trump on. Remember, after the whole Muller probe there was no Russia collusion.

They admitted that because they couldn't fabricate that evidence. Entirely, or rather the Special Council. Couldn't it have been fabricated by Democrat media, the Hillary Clinton campaign, all the rest of it. But when you look at what was said in that Russia collusion investigation, the Special Council, they claimed that ten counts of possible obstruction occurred, ten counts of

possible obstruction. That was the whole big reveal. Oh we're gonna get them, and they didn't, because it turns out if you have somebody nailed on obstruction, you say which one, you don't say, there's ten possible places where maybe we could concoct some basis for doing this. That's what we saw there. But they were the lib audience was promised this Democrats, the Democrat base, the lunatic left. They thought, oh, we're going to get him on obstruction, maybe obstruction in

the documents. Look at what they did to Roger Stone. See this is why I have to have to look at this from what the facts are and then what the lunatic reaction to this all will be. Roger Stone didn't do anything. I mean, they said that he lied to the Special Counsel about a non event, effectively, about something immaterial to anything that matters, and they sent dozens of FBI agents to his home, and they tipped CNN off so they could film the whole thing to try

to humiliate him. In that environment, with that FBI, with that Democrat deep state Department of Justice, would they maybe as a last ditch effort, especially if the midterms go heavily Republican, which I'm hopeful that that will happen. Why should we believe that won't be the come It's worthwhile asking, right that they will decide to prosecute Trump. They will decide to throw a wrench into the gears of our sacred democracy, as they always say, talking about the border

here in a second. But you know, these data breaches keep coming. Another one's just announced, this one including social security numbers that's obviously really sensitive.

Play twenty would you call the border secure. I think that there is no question that we have to do. What the President and I asked Congress to do is the first request. We may pass a bill to create a pathway to sistum ship.

The border is secure, but we also have a broken immigration system, in particular over the last four years before we came in, and it needs to be fixed. We're gonna have two nine people across this border for the first time ever. You're confident this border secure? We have a secure border. Just repeats it. We have a secure border. No one believes that. And there are some photos now circulating on the daily mail of these campsites that are popping up all over El Paso of legal migrants who

are showing up. They get into this country and they're now living on the streets. In New York City, you have illegal migrants that are being bussed there from Texas who are now being put up in hotels at taxpayer expense. That's also happening, and we're being told that the shelters are overwhelmed, so New York is now sending some migrants, so all this headline today to Florida. So they're moving

the migrants around because there's so many of them. It's obviously a major factor in the resources that these cities have to deal with these kinds of issues, deal with these kinds of challenges that come about when you have people that arrive in a country you have no legal status, maybe don't speak the language. So that's a major consideration right now for places like New York, DC, in Chicago.

But I thought that illegal immigration, it just makes everything better, Everything works so much better when you have more and more illegal migrants in the country. Well, it turns out that is not really what we are seeing here. And it also is the case that as the American people will focus in more on how five million people have come into the country illegally over the last two years. Why is that illegality not an issue at all for

the federal government. But you know they wanted to force you to get a shot, or that you should get fired from your job. Basically, you know they want to raise your taxes. That you don't pay your taxes, you go to jail. Any one of you listening this right now, Your taxes mean nothing to the treasury as an individual, makes no difference whatsoever. But if you don't pay your taxes,

what happens you go to prison. Why it's the law, That's what they'll say, right, Okay, So then why are people able to come to the country in violation of federal law and stay here in violation of federal law and break a whole host of other laws, you know, document fraud things like that when they're in the country because they're here illegally, because they're a protected class. That's really the Democrats don't want to say that, but that is the truth of the matter. Oh, I mentioned, and

I wanted to get to it. The aftermath of the Biden party yesterday, you know, the big victory dents they were doing outside the White House. People were really having a tough time with this when the stock market got clawbered yesterday, absolutely clawbered. And here, for example, over at CNN, which is regime media. But they're a little more cautious these days than they used to be because they realize that people aren't buying the anti Trump left wing Oh

but we're still a news organization. They're not buying that, So they're having to go more toward a centrist point of view. Here is or just objective I should say point of view. Here is a CNN cutting away from the Biden ceremony yesterday as it was happening, because it was just too much to take. So I think the Republicans who stood up. Okay, you're listening there to President Biden at the White House. He's celebrating the passage of the Inflation Reduction Act. He says that he's been fighting

big Pharma for decades. But there is this unfortunate split screen right now with the Dow taking a total beating down more than twelve hundred points, and so it feels like it's hard to be celebratory for some people in

the crowd. Yeah, this is the day on which the White House celebrates the Inflation Reduction Act when we get a new report that shows that inflation is still especially high, and what we're seeing on Wall Street is a reaction to that, anticipating what's coming from the Fed, theia that will come on, whether to increase or likely they will increase, but by how much the interest rates. There's gonna be a big interest rate increase coming next week, probably maybe

a full point. It's gonna have a huge impact on the market, on finances, on everything else. And so while the Biden administration for political reasons, because we're going into elections, trying to do the whole h Look, all great things are here, all right, I'm we're I'm a big aviator. She can't see my face, and my eyes look a little vacant behind the glasses, but you can't see. Not a joke. Not a joke. Actually, do we have Biden saying the United States of Schmamerica or whatever he was

that he said? This was I think this was actually from last week. But this is the person they want in charge of the nuclear codes. The person they want is the commander chief United States Military. Here he is. This is the United States Kamara, for God's sake, United States ship kamarre Ah. You know, get off my on. Biden's yelling at all the kids across Samerica. It's pretty crazy. But this is the guy who they have put in charge.

This is the guy that we're supposed to listen to, you know, the steady hand on the economy and national security and all the rest of it. So c Ann cutaway. This was even better Neil Cavudo yesterday on Fox during this celebration. You know, Cavudo is a very even temperate, fair minded guy, and during this broadcast, this is he just feels need to jump in. He's just like, this is just this Biden Celebration's crazy town. Watch big farmer

block Medicare from negotiating lower drug pices. All right, I do not want to be a party crasher, but we interrupt this celebration for a hard, cold dose of reality. Stocks tanking because inflation is accelerating, the very inflation that the President says he's made great progress addressing Fox on top of a sell off the likes of which we've not seen in quite some time. In percentage terms, the roughly four percent hid in the Dow is the worst

we've seen in two years. Ditto the SMP five hundred and again the NASDAC all hit and hit hard because inflation remains stuck and no one can get it under control. Inflation remains stuck. Yeah, it's gonna get worse too, or rather it goes on and it's worse every month because the effect on prices will continue, the price of food still going up, the price of rent, the price of housing going up. And what does anyone think happens when they increase the rate? The FED rate, which is I'm

gonna guess gonna go up by point seventy five. It may go up by it may go up by a full point next week. That could happen. Here is former Obama administration economist Steve Rattner who's saying, look, it's more economic pain ahead. Meaning basically, he's telling everybody, look, we're going into while while Biden's throwing a inflation deflation whatever victory party, anti inflation victory party for a bill that if anything makes inflation worse, the whole thing is so

crazy town. A former Obama guy, who's a smart guy, Obama administration official, Ratner is saying, look, the pain is coming. We're heading into an inflate in a recession. How long with these rate heights, Steve, will it take to see inflation come down using this blunt instrument, this tool of raising rates to bring it down? Is that a short term goal or is that something that takes a lot

of time. That's exactly the right question, Willie. And what yesterday's numbers did was it increased the probability of there being what we call we're calling a hard landing that there's going to have to be a recession here to get inflation down anywhere near the fence two percent target, and so we're going to have to see what comes of it, but it's certainly not going to happen in

the near term. There's only one more report before the midterm elections, and we're looking at a much longer process than that, and the question is going to be how consumers react of these numbers, well economic themthetically, it's not going to be good. The short version of the version of this is that it's it's not going to go well.

We are heading into a recession, and the recession in part will be pushed by the reduction rather the elevation of the FED lending rate Fed interest rates are fed's going to send interest rates up, and that's going to mean that the cost of everything is going to be going up, to the cost of borrowing is going to go up, which was going to raise prices in a whole range of areas. This is going to be really

negative for the economy. There is very clearly an effort underway to just hold back the dam of realization from breaking here before the election, because the one thing that Democrats know they can't talk their way around is everyone realizes that their inner recession and that the Democrat policies worsened their recession. That's abely going to be an enormous, an enormous drag on them going into this midterm election.

It's going to be a massive, massive problem. So I think it's important that we tell the truth about what's really going on here and what's really going to be happening in these in these midterm elections. So that's why we're focusing on the economy, focusing on the border crime. Crime. I mean, here is Tucker last night on his show, because I talk about crime frequently here, it's so important because it's out of control. It really is dangerous in

so many of these cities. Here's Tucker on his show saying that he wants a nonviolent civil disobedience campaign to get more attention for how the authorities have to tackle the problem of crime. Watching those crimes are so appalling, their attacks not just on individuals but against civilization and humanity itself, that they at this point really do require

in immense and organized nonviolent civil disobedience campaign. So just pick one of those videos that ran, who's the prosecutor to let that person out, refuse to charge them in the first place, Who's the politician who decided that attacker had more rights than the old lady he was beating up.

Why aren't fifteen thousand people blocking that person's office or chain themselves to the front door, demanding an answer again, Why isn't there massive nonviolent civil disobedience that can change this? Barking about it uncable news clearly isn't working. We've been doing it for five years. Why isn't there more of a focus on this, Well, I can tell you it's because not only are Democrats responsible for pushing the policies that led to so much of this, but they want

to continue it. We have not suffered enough. In our cities and towns, even royal areas. I've seen major increases in crime because when you open up the prisons and let people out, when you refuse to prosecute people, It's not just the cities, I mean their criminals going to be more criminals in circulation everywhere, at least in the region of where these policies are being instituted. That's why

Shougo is getting rid of cash bail. They've got this they called the Safe t Act, and that'll be starting in January of this year. It's also gonna make a whole range of serious crimes non arrestable. Chicago is going to be doing this, just to give you a sense of how crazy the Democrat state legislatures are. Mayor's offices, governors, they're not They're not yet at the point where they realize the suffering has to stop. And I just mentioned this before you know. I'm I'm watching a little bit

of the Lord of the Rings prequel. I watched a little bit of that recently. I've watched a little bit of House of the Dragon, so it's I forget what the Lord of the Rings one's even called, but anyway, the House of the Dragon I've been watching. And there's a lot of discussion about the Lord of the Rings trilogy and Wokeness, And now you also have a discussion that's broken out online about a black mermaid in the

Little Mermaid Live action movie. I find I find, you know, the the casting of actors and actress of any color, creed, etc. As long as it just has fealty to the story great, you know, as long as it's just meant to tell a good story. So I don't see any I don't see the issue with having a Little Mermaid been changing The Little Mermaid from being a you know, there was a cartoon before. I don't think they've made a live action version of it before. I don't see the issue

with that. I think it's fine. The issue I see with other series is when it feels like they're pushing diversity for its own sake at the expense of storytelling. An example this would be in the show Billions, where out of nowhere, all of a sudden, the most genius person on Wall Street is a trans individual who goes by the pronouns they that felt like that felt like there were some politics there, right, I mean, and who

was twenty two or something like that. By the way, so twenty two year old transgender walls three geniuses cast in the show Billions, right at a time when the transagenda is particularly in the news and everything else. You say, that feels like politics. A Little Mermaid is black. I hope it's a great I hope it's a great movie and it's really entertaining and kids love it. I don't know, so I don't really. I see there's wokeness and then

there's just telling good stories. As long as you're telling good stories, great all in favor of casting whoever people want to cast. Kind of talk to you more about all this. Tomorrow Team talk to you then Shield Tie
