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

26:59

27:02
Great America show is
27:05

27:07
call him. He's a political provocateur.

27:12
comedian, and you don't want to miss
27:14
Alex Stein. He'll
27:16

27:18
