Hello,

0:00

everybody. I'm Lou Dobbs, and

0:02

welcome to the Great America show. Good

0:04

of you to join us here for this episode

0:06

of Committ to truth, justice,

0:08

and the American way. Always.

0:11

First, confusion, raining in the

0:13

swamp. Somebody at the corrupt Department

0:16

of Justice is in big trouble,

0:18

ladies and gentlemen, big doings

0:20

at the DOJ. the DOJ

0:23

investigating a Democrat senator,

0:26

that's right. You heard me correctly.

0:28

The Marxist in the deep state

0:31

according to news site Semaphor are

0:34

investigating democrat senator

0:36

Bob Menendez of New Jersey.

0:38

It's unclear what exactly the

0:41

US attorney in New York City is investigating,

0:44

but DOJ dropped corrupt and

0:46

charges against the very same senator

0:49

four years ago. And another

0:51

long standing this one an even

0:53

longer standing investigation involving

0:56

another well known Democrat.

0:59

What's going on here? Less than two

1:01

weeks before the big election, This

1:03

investigation has been underway for

1:05

more than four years. That's

1:07

right. I'm talking about Hunter Biden.

1:10

The Marxist dims have him and

1:12

his dad hidden away as

1:14

the days get short before

1:17

election day. But top

1:19

Republican congressman James Comer

1:21

is demanding that the FBI turn

1:24

over any information they have

1:26

accumulated On Biden's

1:28

secretary at the time, a Chinese

1:31

woman named Shaquia Bao.

1:34

Shaquia, it turns out, has

1:36

ties to the People's Liberation Army

1:39

and the CCP. wants

1:42

to know How much she found out

1:44

about Hunter's finances and

1:47

his business dealings? Comer

1:49

is the ranking republican on the House

1:51

Oversight Committee and he's a great American.

1:54

And as I said, now less than two

1:56

weeks till Election Day and New York

1:58

is a deep blue state that's in

2:01

play. and congressman Lee

2:03

Zelton is running for governor. In

2:05

a heated battle with his radical dim

2:07

incumbent opponent, And our

2:09

guest today is Michael Henry. He's

2:12

running for attorney general against

2:14

crazes, leftist, Latisha James,

2:17

who's made a career of going

2:19

after president Trump. Michael

2:21

Henry means to restore the New

2:23

York State attorney general's office

2:25

to law and order. And

2:27

Michael, great to have you with us here on the Great

2:29

America Show. You're in a top

2:31

tight race with the incumbent Marxist

2:34

Dem, how do you feel about your campaign

2:36

and what you've got to do in these closing

2:39

days? So

2:40

first, thank you for having me on the show.

2:43

We know this is a tight race, both

2:46

based on outside polling and internal

2:48

numbers. Right now, we just have to make

2:50

sure that we can one get our base out And

2:52

then secondly, make sure we get

2:54

those independence and like minded

2:56

democrats that are quite frankly tired of the

2:58

crime crime crisis, corruption crisis, and

3:00

close to the living crisis here. what we've

3:02

seen is we have a message that's transcended party

3:04

affiliation and we're literally just

3:06

working right now to make sure we hit our marks

3:08

in New York City, the auto burrows, the suburbs.

3:11

and get the job done. And we're very confident

3:13

that we're going to win this race. And I also think Rizelle

3:15

is going to be the next governor governor of the state

3:17

of New York. Well, you

3:18

know, looking at the polling, it Zelda

3:21

is close. You're close. And

3:23

you're in a state that is overwhelmingly democrat.

3:27

It is a deep blue. And

3:31

how is it that give

3:33

us a sense your sense of

3:35

the mood of the electric? What people

3:37

are thinking about and how you how your

3:39

agenda is

3:42

responding?

3:44

Right.

3:44

So the

3:46

way we've been able to to make traction, the

3:48

game traction is we focus on

3:50

crime, which people are living

3:52

in fear, Lou. I mean, they're living in fear,

3:54

especially in our major cities. Just in

3:56

New York City alone, we've seen a thirty six percent

3:58

rise in major crimes.

3:59

a twenty five year high in subway homicides,

4:02

a forty one percent rise in hate crimes.

4:05

Nassau County, the neighboring counties, has a thirty

4:07

four percent rise in major crimes. Rochester

4:09

has a higher murder rate than the city of Chicago.

4:13

Buffalo has a three year increase in

4:15

in homicides We have a fentanyl crisis

4:17

throughout the state. So good law abiding

4:19

citizens, they're living in fear as

4:21

criminals are walking around doing whatever they

4:23

want, wherever they want, wherever they want,

4:25

And I have an opponent who said she needs to

4:28

see more data before she would revisit

4:30

any changes, cashless mail. And more

4:32

data means more victims. quite frankly,

4:34

that is a despicable mindset for the Chief

4:36

Armed Forces of the state to have. The

4:38

second thing is normally people

4:40

are pretty numb to corrupt in the

4:42

past, you would see it. It wasn't really an

4:44

issue. They kind of felt old politicians can't

4:46

be trusted, but Kathy Hockel

4:48

has taken pay to play corruption and

4:50

scandals. to a whole new level. And

4:53

this is an issue, especially this one

4:55

case with these COVID testing kits where

4:57

the state of New York paid double or California

4:59

paid After this family held a three

5:01

hundred thousand dollars -- raised three hundred

5:03

thousand dollars for Kathy Holckel, they received

5:05

a six thirty seven million dollars

5:07

no bid contract during a

5:09

period when the Emergency

5:11

Powers Act was actually extended

5:13

by the Governor. And one

5:15

of their son actually is working

5:17

on the local campaign. And then lastly,

5:19

close the living. People can't

5:22

afford to live, they can't afford

5:24

to run small businesses And

5:26

there is a mass exodus of our friends and our

5:28

family, and people have had enough.

5:30

I mean, one other issue that's really helped us

5:32

in ethnic communities like Asians,

5:34

volcanoes, and other ethnic

5:36

communities has been the failing educational system.

5:38

So we've been very focused on the issues

5:41

that transcend party affiliation and

5:43

the issues that everyone really

5:46

want to see addressed and that's what we've been

5:48

providing the voters is a

5:50

real alternative.

5:52

So this is I'm gonna ask you a very

5:54

serious question now. Okay.

5:56

Because it's something I truly I

5:58

I have covered

5:59

politics for a very long time.

6:02

I've covered ugly politics. I've

6:04

covered corrupt politics. I have

6:07

I've I've seen a lot. But

6:09

I have never seen a time in

6:12

any state, ever in

6:14

this country in which the crime

6:16

rate was rising And I mean,

6:19

atrociously so that

6:21

there was no public outrage expressed

6:24

in part that's because the National Corporate

6:26

Media doesn't let

6:28

there be a response from the

6:30

American people. We are watching

6:32

the education system being devastated

6:35

We're watching transgender issues

6:38

take over k through

6:40

twelve education because of two teachers

6:42

unions. we are watching

6:45

an assault by Marxist dims

6:47

who lead the Democrat Party. They

6:49

have

6:49

they

6:50

are corrupt at every level of government

6:52

from commute from

6:53

their community, through their

6:56

county, through their state, to the federal

6:58

government. It is rampant. It

7:00

is has spread like

7:02

a cancer through our society to

7:04

use the cliche, but it's absolutely

7:07

apt the comparison.

7:09

We have law enforcement officers

7:12

who are being called back from

7:14

their duty. They're being told

7:16

they're going to be defunded. You've got Kathy

7:18

Hockel issues. I mean, you just outlined

7:20

what is obvious obvious corruption.

7:22

That's not just political corruption. That's

7:24

political and financial corruption. And where

7:26

in the world is the are

7:29

the federal authorities, if the

7:31

state authorities won't do anything. How

7:34

is it anybody would vote for a

7:36

Marxist dim running at any level,

7:38

local, county, state,

7:41

or federal. How is it that anybody

7:43

wants to have the stench of

7:45

this continue over

7:47

our country.

7:49

Well, well, you know, a lot of

7:51

times Republicans are more comfortable fighting

7:53

a Republican and there are a Democrat. I will

7:55

tell you in this instance, in my race, I can't tell

7:57

you how many times people said to me,

7:59

oh my

7:59

gosh, you're running against Patricia James. Oh,

8:02

I mean, how could you beat

8:04

her? Oh, she's addictive, etcetera. You know what?

8:06

I don't care.

8:07

Because I meet people every

8:09

day who are fed up who are

8:11

heartbroken as to what's going on in

8:13

the state. People who live in fear.

8:15

I need the I need victims families.

8:18

I've been to multiple police officer funerals.

8:20

I had a lieutenant on the

8:22

FDNY who was six months away

8:24

from retirement scagged over twenty

8:26

times the debt in the same neighborhood

8:29

where I lived. And quite frankly,

8:31

these these elected officials

8:33

are so stuck in their ideology with

8:35

this with these to fund the police

8:37

and all this nonsense on Leticia James has

8:39

been one of the biggest viewers of anti police

8:41

rhetoric. She supports the removal she's

8:43

against Qualified Immunity. She

8:45

supports the escalation bill that makes it nearly

8:47

impossible for a police officer to make an

8:49

arrest. And I could tell you, My father was

8:51

a police officer. And early in his career, he

8:53

spent four weeks in the hospital, saving a

8:55

baby out of a burning building, the less than you

8:57

want his police officers test

8:59

what making split second, second life for that

9:01

decision to waste critical seconds overthinking

9:03

because some grandstanders gonna come for their

9:05

badge and their pension. We have a

9:07

recruitment a problem right now with law

9:09

enforcement. We have a retention problem right now

9:11

with law enforcement during the twenty

9:13

twenty riots when people are coming from

9:15

all over to riot in New York City. a lot of

9:17

things didn't wanna find it. Yeah.

9:19

Let let let's talk about that. You talked about the

9:21

twenty twenty rights. Let

9:23

let's be very very clear about whose

9:25

rights those were. whose

9:27

arson and street violence murders

9:31

property damage. That was

9:33

all inspired by

9:35

Marxist DHMS, Antifa,

9:37

Black Lives Matter, and

9:39

they were operating under orders

9:42

from the Marxist DHMS in

9:44

this country. And just

9:46

as soon as it approached

9:48

election time, it ended

9:50

there were no arrests all but

9:52

no arrests. There were certainly no

9:54

convictions. And I'm talking about from

9:56

murder to arson to to

9:58

assault.

9:59

Magicly, None of those

10:02

local prosecutors did a thing.

10:04

That is what

10:06

we're dealing with in this country. That

10:08

kind of violent corruption,

10:10

the likes of which we've

10:12

never seen because it's driven

10:14

by the politically corrupt march

10:16

systems who drive the Democrat Party.

10:18

Right? Yep.

10:20

Well, Lou, my my ticket mate

10:22

who is our candidate for lieutenant governor

10:24

was in the MIPD

10:26

during those riots. She had

10:28

a kitchen cabinet thrown on her head

10:30

and received spinal damage from that. She

10:32

she was injured. Instead

10:34

of investigating, Like you said, who is

10:36

behind all of this? This

10:38

is

10:38

James investigated the NYPD and sued

10:41

them. And this is the clear contrast that the

10:43

people of New York are being offered. Michael

10:45

Henry is gonna fight for victim's rights, Patricia

10:47

James is gonna fight for criminal rights. Michael

10:49

Henry is gonna investigate, pay to play

10:51

corruption and look to audit a lot of these

10:53

national profits And Patricia James is going to turn to

10:55

blind eye to pay to play corruption. Michael

10:57

Henry is going to support economic policies that's

10:59

going to allow for our economy to flourish here in the

11:01

state of New York. and she's going to continue to

11:03

support the economic policies that put

11:05

a stranglehold on our economy

11:07

here in the state of New York. These are the

11:09

clear contrast and you have to be

11:11

willing as an attorney general to step

11:13

up and be willing to hold people accountable.

11:15

You cannot have people running

11:17

around who are criminals within no fear, no

11:19

consequence attitude. Because when

11:21

people know there are no repercussions,

11:23

they are going to continue to act

11:25

bad, and then this starts like, you know,

11:27

people say, well, it's in the big city. It's not.

11:29

It eventually goes to the suburbs. It

11:31

eventually goes to our rural areas. And

11:33

people need to be held accountable. And under

11:35

my watch, they are be held

11:37

accountable. Alright. Well,

11:39

I'm glad to hear you say that, Mike, because

11:41

here's the deal. Albany,

11:44

is one of the most corrupt cities in the

11:46

entire country. The state

11:48

government of New York. Let's

11:50

talk straight. is one

11:51

of the most corrupt state governments, and

11:53

they got not perhaps the most, but one

11:55

of the most. And it's

11:58

it has They've

11:59

been inspired for

12:02

years by the Democrat Party to

12:04

continue this. You've got a lot of

12:06

people's livelihoods. that'll disappear.

12:08

If you rip out that system

12:10

of corruption that is has

12:12

this state government in

12:15

its hold. It's it's

12:17

like the federal government. The federal

12:19

government right now, we have all of the law

12:21

enforcement agencies that I'm talking about the

12:23

FBI and the intelligence agencies,

12:25

the Department of Justice

12:27

are just

12:28

absolutely toxic

12:30

with political and so in some

12:32

cases economic corruption. This

12:35

is going to take a an inspired

12:38

energetic, and I'm being courageous.

12:41

candidate,

12:42

attorney general, to take that

12:44

office and to really do

12:46

something about it. And you've got to have the

12:48

help of your

12:50

entire party and all of the

12:52

people of New York to win. You

12:54

know how amazingly difficult

12:56

this chore is. Yeah. But,

12:58

you know, something I've been in the private sector

13:01

my whole adult life. This is my first run for

13:03

office. If I served for four to eight

13:05

years, do the right thing and never serve

13:07

an elected office again, I could care

13:09

less. This is really not something I

13:11

if you asked me two years ago, if I would be the

13:13

Republican nominee New York State Attorney

13:15

General, I probably would have laughed.

13:18

But as I've met people and as

13:20

I've seen what's going on, I wanna

13:22

go in for four to eight years, do it

13:24

needs to be done. And if I move on with my

13:26

life and never serve an elected office again,

13:28

guess what? I was the best attorney

13:30

general I could be. I did the best job I

13:32

could do, and I don't have I do not

13:34

have higher aspirations than

13:36

just cleaning up this mess.

13:38

And there's a lot of work that could be done in

13:40

Albany. There's a public integrity

13:42

group at the attorney general's office. You could

13:44

work jointly with the federal government.

13:46

If

13:46

there is a public integrity office

13:49

and within the attorney general's office,

13:51

what

13:51

in hell have they been doing?

13:55

Well, you

13:55

have to remember, Leticia James was the

13:57

number one recipient from the

13:59

money from the man at the center to pay the play

14:01

scandal evolving our lieutenant governor who was just federally

14:03

indicted by your Benjamin. As a matter of fact, when

14:05

he was indicted, she didn't say anything. So

14:07

we went through her disclosures and found

14:09

She actually kept accepting money from the man

14:11

when Brian Benjamin was returning it.

14:13

And then once the man was federally indicted,

14:16

she returned the money. We we actually the New

14:18

York Post covered that story. We have this

14:20

medical answering services, this

14:22

Medicaid transportation company here in New

14:24

York. The inspector

14:26

general said that they

14:28

overbuild one hundred and ninety six

14:30

million dollars in

14:32

Medicaid reimbursements. They

14:33

held a they raised a hundred

14:35

thousand dollars to the New York State Democrat

14:37

Party, Kathy Hockel, and

14:39

also the the owner of

14:41

the company held a fundraiser, or his

14:43

husband held a fundraiser during a

14:45

blackout period, which is a clear violation

14:47

of state finance law. And we've

14:49

called on Leticia James to not only

14:52

speak on the speak on

14:54

investigating this. She took money from

14:56

the same company and she hasn't

14:58

explained if she's kept the donations, if she

15:00

returned the donation, and it really paints

15:02

a bad image to the

15:04

public you take money from a company

15:06

and then you failed to speak up as they're

15:08

issued a no bid contract

15:09

for one billion dollars

15:12

And this is my kind of stuff. She does

15:14

not she does not have the stomach

15:16

to go after the people on her own party

15:18

unless it's to make herself the next governor or

15:20

unless it's to promote an agenda against

15:22

Republican. And she she's clear.

15:24

She's not gonna investigate corruption. And many

15:26

times, it's because she got it in the same circle

15:28

for these people. You're

15:29

describing her as corrupt.

15:31

Why hasn't somebody gone after

15:34

her? I'm sorry. This

15:34

is what one party is what

15:37

one party control with the super

15:39

majority in both houses of our legislature

15:41

gets you. There's no accountability.

15:43

Because when you have this much

15:45

control, people that the

15:47

power is intoxicating to these people. And

15:49

you've seen us you've dealt with a lot of politicians over

15:51

the years, but power goes

15:53

to a lot of these people's heads. They they love

15:55

the job title. They love the power. They love

15:57

the pat on the back. They love making the speeches,

15:59

but they've eroded the public trust.

16:02

and that is wrong and

16:04

that's what we are going to address. She's shown

16:06

herself to be the most political attorney

16:08

general in the nation, but she also has

16:10

shown herself to be unfit to handle

16:12

all these issues, crime,

16:14

corruption, cost of living. The people see

16:16

people speak for it. Is

16:17

she or she not corrupt?

16:20

Well, I I think I can say she's morally

16:23

corrupt based on her behavior. Well,

16:25

you

16:25

do you think she's legally corrupt? I

16:27

mean, we're talking about an extraordinary

16:30

circumstance here where you've got an entire

16:32

state government that's corrupt. She's

16:34

not doing anything about it. Why

16:37

not?

16:37

Right.

16:38

Because I think that she uses her office for the

16:40

wrong purposes. This office could do a lot of good for

16:42

the public and She's more focused on

16:44

making specialty headlines to raise her own

16:46

political profile, and she turns a blind

16:48

eye to the things that are most

16:50

important to the people, the state of New York. and

16:52

this office is nothing more than a stepping

16:54

stone for her. She ran for governor. That

16:56

run for governor lasted about as long as

16:58

our interview is gonna last. and she had to come back

17:00

to the attorney general's office because

17:03

she doesn't want to leave public public

17:05

office, but she clearly was

17:07

rejected by her own party for her run

17:09

for governor She wasn't gaining traction in the

17:11

forty one days she ran and now she's

17:13

here and we have been holding

17:15

her accountable and the people of

17:17

this state are

17:18

not receptive to her. It crosses

17:20

every kind of party affiliation

17:23

ethnic line that people know

17:25

that she she was sold in twenty eighteen as somebody

17:27

that was gonna take on the system. Look,

17:30

she's just a product of the actually,

17:32

not even the democrat party.

17:34

when she first ran for city council, she couldn't

17:36

even get the Democrat nomination. She ran

17:38

on the third third party line of

17:40

the working families party. and she's

17:43

enthusiastically accepted that party's line this

17:45

cycle. And in their questionnaire, they

17:47

say you cannot revisit any changes to

17:49

cash or spell And

17:51

on top of that, you can't support police

17:53

or correction or take support from police or

17:55

correctional union. The the one thing have

17:57

is How could you be the Chief Law Enforcement

17:59

Officer of the State of New York when you do

18:01

not believe the law enforcement? And the answer

18:03

is simple, you can.

18:05

Okay. And I hope that

18:07

you make certain that the

18:09

good guy wins. If elected,

18:12

though, Will you

18:12

be investigating these corrupt New York

18:15

State officials? Will you

18:17

be investigating corrupt

18:20

County

18:20

and local officials wherever

18:22

you find it come hell or high water?

18:25

Absolutely. We're gonna hold everyone accountable.

18:27

I'm not doing this to make friends. I'm not doing

18:29

this to be the next governor. I'm not doing this to

18:32

be a US senator. I'm doing it

18:34

because the public trust has been

18:36

eroded and I'm tired of

18:38

walking around looking at people feeling defeated, feel

18:41

moving because they can't afford to live here,

18:43

living in fear, and thinking that their

18:45

government does not serve them. And

18:47

I have I will prosecute corruption to

18:49

the full extent of the law and utilize

18:51

every tool I have. And it might not make me

18:53

a lot of friends but it doesn't matter the

18:55

people deserve better. They entrust

18:57

people to take office. People

18:59

take an oath. They raise their hand and

19:01

take an oath. to serve the

19:03

people of the state. And right now, we have

19:06

someone running for governor who has the

19:08

taxpayers of this state subsidizing

19:10

her run for governor. And

19:12

they do not want this, and I'm gonna

19:14

do what I can to restore people's

19:16

faith and government, whether it's at

19:18

the local level or the state level.

19:21

everything that's in my jurisdiction will be

19:23

prosecuted to the full extent of the

19:25

law. Well,

19:26

I I think

19:28

what we're hearing here is that you're

19:30

going to be a gangbuster attorney

19:32

general, and that and that is good news for

19:34

every New Yorker. What's your

19:37

take on her attacks

19:39

on Trump. Right.

19:42

What

19:42

I what what I would say is, I I find

19:44

it troubling when someone runs for office

19:46

saying they're gonna find crimes and

19:48

on someone and then declaring their guilt before they're even

19:50

sworn into office. I will

19:52

contrast myself from her in

19:54

this manner. When I

19:57

take over,

19:57

in January. I have

19:59

to

19:59

review every case before my office

20:02

and decide what's in the best interest of the people, the state

20:04

of New York. it's withdrawing in action,

20:06

whether it's pursuing or continuing in

20:08

action. And I believe right now, it

20:10

would be wrong for me to make any type of prejudicial

20:12

and appropriate statements. What

20:14

I will say is I'm going to evaluate everything

20:17

by the letter of the law, and

20:19

I will also say this

20:21

The one thing that was weird to me or stood out to

20:23

me about her press conference

20:25

was how she gets up

20:28

there and says these big

20:30

banks and insurance companies who

20:32

it's their due diligence to

20:34

do the research on who they're making a

20:36

loan to that they need her to come

20:38

in and defend them. What about the

20:40

person riding the subway who was a victim of

20:42

crime? What about the person who is

20:44

watching if their governor is spending a

20:46

second. This is this is the difference between me

20:48

and her. And who she thinks are victims and

20:50

who I think are victims? I don't wanna say

20:53

anything inappropriate because what I

20:55

will say is, I'm not gonna be a political

20:57

attorney general. I'm gonna follow the letter of

20:59

the law. and I'm gonna contrast that

21:01

by my by the way, I carry myself and when

21:03

I go into January going

21:05

in January, I will look at everything.

21:07

that make the right decision. That's all I could say. I

21:09

will make the right decision.

21:12

What

21:12

will be your authority as attorney general

21:14

to straighten out New York City, which

21:16

is a SUS pool right now of crime? The

21:18

first

21:19

thing is well, there's multiple things. The first

21:21

thing is use the bully pulpit to push for

21:23

the forward appeal of cash to spell. law

21:26

is not working. I'm

21:28

talking about

21:29

what will you do within

21:32

your authority to

21:33

straighten out New York City because the current mayor

21:35

has made a point of telling

21:37

the

21:37

people of New York to go to

21:40

hell Alright.

21:41

So there's multiple things. The first one is you could

21:43

work in conjunction with local district attorneys

21:45

who are going to who would

21:47

need your resources obviously to get

21:50

prosecute matters I'm not thinking that album, Brad is going to do

21:52

that, but Lee's album is also promised

21:54

to come from office day one. The second

21:56

thing I could do is work in conjunction with

21:58

federal authorities for things of, for

22:00

example, a legal firearm

22:02

trafficking gangs, things of

22:04

those nature, things of

22:06

that nature. There are also

22:08

bureaus at the attorney general's

22:10

office where there are crimes that you do have

22:12

jurisdiction over. And

22:14

then lastly, I I can introduce

22:16

program bills to the state legislature, and I

22:18

believe we are going to make significant gains

22:20

in the the state senate with

22:22

Republicans I can introduce program into

22:24

the state legislature to make

22:27

changes to laws or introduce

22:29

new policies. But the main thing is

22:31

being able to work in conjunction at the local

22:33

level. And, you know, we really

22:35

have to get this under control. The other

22:37

thing that needs to be done is

22:39

they need to remove and this is something the

22:41

result is gonna do. Remove the people from the

22:43

parole boards. I think it's a good

22:45

idea to let cop killers violent

22:47

sex offenders and violent criminals

22:49

back out onto our streets. But the main

22:51

thing is it's a three step process. It's

22:53

where do I have the working with the

22:55

local district attorneys Where do I have

22:57

the jurisdiction as far as the bureaus at

22:59

the office and working in conjunction with the federal

23:02

government? And then lastly, the

23:04

introduction of to push into policies into

23:06

place that I think could

23:08

help get crime under control. Because

23:10

this is not working no matter how much they

23:12

try to say stats and and

23:14

it's this is not working, and

23:16

everybody knows it's not

23:18

working. This

23:18

I mean, people are being killed every, you

23:20

know, every week. People

23:22

are being allowed out of prison or violent or

23:24

or repeat offenders. New York

23:26

is to the left of California on this.

23:28

We have cries that are eligible

23:30

for CasaSpa that that are considered non violent crimes that

23:32

are violent crimes. Forms

23:35

of arson, robbery, you use a

23:37

gun during you use a

23:39

firearm during the Commission of Accruiting. You

23:41

don't discharge it. And then what they want to do is they

23:43

always want to go after the law of Ivan Gunowner

23:45

and blame an object instead of a

23:47

perpetrator. But guess what? If look in

23:49

Manhattan at the district attorney's office,

23:51

they're not prosecuting the possession of

23:53

an illegal firearm. In many instances, they're

23:56

dismissing it or dropping the

23:58

cases to or dismissing or drafting the cases

24:00

to mister MENA charge because the weapon wasn't

24:02

discharged. This is ridiculous. It

24:04

is not working. The public wants their

24:06

police officers back, the public wants

24:09

criminals behind bars, and we

24:11

have to stand our ground on this

24:13

because we are on the right side

24:15

of this. and it's cross end, it's it's transcending

24:17

party affiliation, racial lines, ethnic

24:19

lines, religious lines, everybody's

24:21

set up. And we just have to

24:23

show spine and

24:25

fight for these policies and stop

24:27

with letting them try to create these stew

24:29

these narratives that are just not true. This

24:31

this we're doing this a hundred percent

24:33

wrong here in New York. and we're just a few

24:35

good decisions away from turning it around. Just a few

24:37

good decisions could turn this all around. The

24:39

last thing, Leticia James wants to

24:42

do is remind the people of New York

24:44

of just who she is and what

24:46

she's done. It's -- Right. -- and

24:48

what she will do.

24:49

We always give our guests the last word. So

24:51

you're concluding thoughts as you

24:53

run your race for the people in

24:55

New York and for a much

24:58

better future. The first thing is

25:00

I

25:00

wish everybody could go to my website, michael

25:03

henry4AG dot com. I also have a great ad we

25:05

released that holds our accountable that's

25:08

on my Twitter page so everybody

25:10

could review that that ad.

25:12

Look. I'm running

25:12

What's your handle? What's your handle? What's

25:14

your handle? Michael Henry? Michael

25:17

Henry? the number four

25:19

dream AG. Okay.

25:20

And everyone could see our ad that we

25:22

launched last week. And look, I'm running to be

25:24

the attorney general for the people of the state in

25:27

New York because I know under one

25:29

party control, things are not going well.

25:31

I know we have a crime crisis. I know we have a

25:33

corruption crisis. I know we have a cost of

25:35

living crisis. But what I also know is this is

25:37

providing our Republican party a

25:39

unique opportunity to build out

25:41

because so many different communities

25:43

are now coming to us because they realize that it's

25:45

our our side that's gonna be able to get the job

25:47

done for them. But the main thing I wanna emphasize,

25:49

this is in a win for New York.

25:52

when we dispute Leticia James, we are

25:54

putting on notice all the

25:56

attorney generals and district attorneys and

25:58

secretary of states around

25:59

the country. that

26:00

want to use their offices for political

26:03

reasons, that want to weaponize their offices

26:05

against political opponents.

26:06

Once we defeat the most political attorney

26:09

general in this nation, all those, the

26:11

district attorneys, attorney general secretary of

26:13

state, they're gonna know that their days are

26:15

numbered and nobody's safe when they

26:17

use the offices for weaponization

26:19

of politics. And that's one of the things

26:21

we are going to stoop through New York is we're going to

26:23

shake up the country, we're going to defeat the

26:25

most political attorney general in the country

26:27

we're gonna send a message throughout the country that

26:30

the days of these kind of be this kind

26:32

of behavior are numbered. I

26:34

you know, great talking with you, Mike. I appreciate

26:37

it. We're talking with Michael

26:39

Henry running for the office of

26:41

attorney general. the

26:43

great state of New York.

26:45

It's been great talking. Will you come

26:47

back and we'll talk more as we get

26:49

closer to election

26:51

day? Good luck

26:51

in the campaign. We we very luck.

26:54

best of luck. And God bless

26:56

you. Thank you very much, love.

26:57

Thank you for having

26:59

me. Thanks everybody

27:00

for being with us. Here tomorrow on the

27:02

Great America show is

27:05

Alex Stein. He is I don't know to

27:07

call him. He's a political provocateur.

27:09

He's an incredibly funny

27:12

comedian, and you don't want to miss

27:14

Alex Stein. He'll

27:16

be with us here tomorrow. We hope you

27:18

will be as well. Till then,

27:20

God bless you, and may God

27:23

bless America.
