00:00And then I think, quite frankly, the voters want to see done.
00:06There are several families that are saying that the people inside the facility that are with family members aren't getting medications.
00:13Can you explain this and talk about that?
00:16So I like Kevin, but I'm sure he's going to debunk it.
00:19I mean, like, seriously, you know, you have to ask yourself on some of this stuff, just the desire to, like, create narratives.
00:27And, like, these Democrat politicians parading down here and doing all this stuff.
00:33And I'm just thinking to myself, I've never seen one of you show up to comfort an angel mom who's lost a child because of illegal alien crime.
00:43I've never seen you raise any concern about the victims of illegal immigration.
00:50Not one time have I seen these Democrats caravan anywhere in this state, hold a press conference to be able to stand in solidarity with victims.
00:59I've never seen that.
01:00These are stunts that they're pulling because they're increasingly politically irrelevant in this state.
01:06And they're trying to latch on to whatever they can, you know, to create phony narratives.
01:11But I will let Kevin address that.
01:14So, again, simple answer, absolute crap.
01:18We have on this facility the ability of a full-fledged medical center with x-ray capability, sonogram capability, prescription med capability.
01:30When these individuals come here, and I'm glad you asked this question, again, we reiterate, everybody at this facility is on a final removal order.
01:40They have been in CBP, ICE, ERO, AMO custody for a while.
01:47It's not like they just came into custody last night.
01:50They have been underneath the federal government's health and medical arm.
01:54They get brought here.
01:55They come with what we call a face sheet that tells us everything that they're on.
02:00We have that medication on site.
02:02We have a medical doctor on site.
02:04We have nurse practitioners on site.
02:06We have RNs and a complete medical staff.
02:08We can deal with trauma on site.
02:11We have four paramedics on duty at all times in conjunction with the medical staff.
02:16So, again, all of that is false, every single bit of it.
02:20And it's not, again, we didn't just go out with a FHP traffic stop, my friends and brothers and Tan, out there making a stop and then just arbitrarily pull that guy off of Alligator Alley and bring him straight here.
02:31We have absolutely no idea who that is.
02:33That is not how this system works.
02:36They come from ERO, ICE, CBP to this facility with a face sheet that tells us everything about them.
02:44It's absolutely false.
02:45Well, Ann, you know, you all, I mean, you have all these, you know, some of these, it's like, like, it's just the lengths that people are going to try to make an issue out of everything.
02:55You know, there was one report, you know, one of the illegals said that his ham sandwich was cold.
03:02And I'm thinking to myself, you know, you're entitled to toasted hoagies?
03:08First of all, you know, Jimmy John's is one of the most successful sandwich places in a country.
03:14They didn't have any toasted subs until very recently.
03:17They had only done cold subs and it became a massive success, financial success.
03:22Now they do offer toasted subs.
03:25They don't, I don't think they do cheesesteaks.
03:26You know, my kids like the cheesesteak from Jersey Mike's, but like, be that as it may, to say that, that, oh, the AC's on too much, it's too cold, or this, or that.
03:36You know, at some point, it's like, good grief.
03:38Like, just, just acknowledge the fact that what Kevin and these guys done has been a Herculean effort to get this up,
03:45that they are meeting or exceeding every state or federal standard or whichever is higher,
03:49and that this is, in fact, a force multiplier to be able to assist with the removal of illegal aliens from the country.
03:57And that's what it is.
03:58And so they, they've done a really good job on this.
04:02Every, I don't even, when I see this stuff, I don't even, I know, I don't even have to ask him because I know.
04:08Like, I know that there's, that you're not being told the whole story.
04:12And I think it's also interesting that, you know, there's folks in, in particularly corporate media,
04:17you'll have a criminal alien ordered to be deported, has committed criminal offenses in addition to immigration,
04:24and he will just assert something, and that will be reported as fact with no corroboration.
04:31It's interesting.
04:32You would never say if, you know, somebody that was on law enforcement just asserted,
04:37you would, you would always ask questions and you would do that.
04:39But somehow, you know, with the criminal alien, you'll just accept that.
04:42And why?
04:43Because it fits the desired narrative.
04:45That's why people do it.
