Insurrection Act, State Defiance & Billions Lost — America at a Breaking Point

In this powerful and wide-ranging discussion, we examine America’s growing constitutional crisis—from extreme weather changes along the Gulf Coast to states openly defying federal law enforcement.

As sanctuary states challenge federal authority, questions arise about the Insurrection Act of 1807, the limits of Posse Comitatus, and whether the federal government can restore law and order when local leaders refuse to cooperate with ICE.

The conversation dives deep into:

State lawsuits attempting to block federal law

Alleged billions in welfare and SNAP fraud

Sanctuary cities shielding criminal networks

The role of ICE, local law enforcement, and governors

Why some believe constitutional amendments are now necessary

The broader fight for national unity, sovereignty, and the rule of law

Throughout history, patriotism has carried America through its darkest moments. Today, the battles look different — but the values remain the same.
Is the nation ready to defend them?

Friend Jean Valentino, the Velvet Hammer

is with us. And of course, the studio

crowd is losing their mind because they

love Friday at 7:15. Good morning, Jean.

Your oneman band, Sunshine Band has

arrived.

So very happy to have you here uh on

this cold, very cold Friday. And I don’t

know if you’re watching the forecast,

but it looks like uh you know, we’re

we’re setting up for another possible

snow in the panhandle of Florida.

Yeah, it was one year ago we about

almost to the day where we had about uh

12 in to 18 in along the Gulf Coast.

This is definitely a change um in um in

in in weather conditions. I certainly

wouldn’t call it global warming.

It’s it’s too cold to be global warming.

But in any case, that uh it is what it

is. And maybe we’ll get some, maybe we

won’t. You know, it’s it’s always tricky

for us to get snow this far south. But

in any case, a lot of the kids are are

ready for that. Uh and if it happens

overnight on Saturday night, hey, we

don’t have to go anywhere Sunday. So,

looks like it’ll be okay this year. Uh,

last year they shut down the schools and

the roads were a mess and all of that

stuff, but in any case, we’ll see what

happens. Okay. So, uh, Jean, uh, you

know, we we have so many things going on

out there, it’s hard to even know where

to start. One of the things that I saw

this past week, it it it just amazes me

the gall that some of these states have,

uh, you know, uh, Minnesota, you’ve got,

uh, Illinois, some of these states that

are suing the feds. They’re saying,

“Judge,

stop the federal government from

enforcing federal law.” And you got to

scratch your head and wonder what is

going on.

Well, just think about it, Michael. We

have uh we have the this term of law in

the United States called pycomatus.

It was brought up uh and passed by

Congress back in the um uh early years

goes way back in 1807.

But since then we have the insurrection

act which is the exception to the

posiccomatus act u uh bars uh active

duty troops from domestic enforcement uh

law enforcement roles. Uh but the

insurrection act is one of the few legal

exceptions to the rule. The president is

considering using the insurrection act

to put the bad actors in place primarily

in these blue state sanctuary city areas

that have interfered with the federal

government’s ability to protect the

nation at large, not just a village or

an or a city or a town by by going into

that town and um and and and extricating

the thousands and thousand thousands of

felons, rapists, childh molesters that

are buried into the neighborhoods. Uh

they could be down the street from your

house uh renting uh someplace. These

people are sleeper cells, I call them,

that are going to strike at some point

just as they did on 911. The problem is

you have lo people, a younger generation

of people who have no understanding

about what we went through since 9/11 in

trying to protect this nation from the

craziness, the recklessness of the

world. And in parallel, just to make a

here’s a point of reference.

Here’s Donald Trump with un unbridled uh

uh authority in Venezuela,

in Israel and the Gaza Strip, in Iran

uh and now coming back to Syria and Iran

to enforce the uh will and might of the

American people on them to get their

acting gear and get in line. You have,

excuse me, you have 2500

people at least that have been murdered

uh in Iran by the um uh Iranian uh n

republic, the the uh deep state guard

they have over there. And you have

another 18,000 of them uh in detained in

one way or another. And um we have more

authority to go in there and fix that

problem without interference

than we do in trying to protect our

neighborhoods and villages because our

constitution shows ex respect towards

the state level of government and the

local level of government. But it’s gone

too far. You cannot try to use the bad

actors that are acting up overseas

in the neighborhoods and villages and

streets of America and get away with it.

more re more importantly, you’ve got

governors like Governor Mike Waltz and

this um and this mayor in Minneapolis

who are who are blocking the they’re not

cooperating with uh with ICE if they

would only give information to ICE about

where these criminals are that they know

about or simply hand over to the feds

those that are currently detained

taxpayers expense in the cities or

counties

then we would have be able to move them

out of the country immediately

without any issue in the street. The

only reason ICE is in the street and

this is making the 6:00 news is because

state and local governments are not

cooperating with the federal government.

That’s a sin. That’s a shame that they

think they can do that. And you’re going

to tell me there’s a legal basis for

that? Wait till Trump ex pulls the

trigger and in institutes the

insurrection act of 1807. He’ll be up

their ass so fast with serious responses

and putting them in place, including the

mayor of Minneapolis, including the

governor of Minnesota, times another 20

states, all those blue states that have

been beginning to act up. And what are

they doing it for?

There’s billions of dollars they’re

trying to hide from you and me in what’s

become the um the fraudulent abuse of

the welfare system and the SNAP system,

the federal funds that go to state and

local government. We have been defrauded

as a nation by our own actors locally.

And it is and and we’ve caught them

red-handed. My words, Elon Musk was so

upset about it, he went back to Tesla.

He opened Pandora’s box and saw such a

cesspool. Uh he thought he’d see some

worms and and rodents. He saw

rattlesnakes everywhere.

He slammed the box shut, said, “Mr.

President, I’m going back to Tesla.

They’re trying to burn us to into

oblivion. No problem, Elon. Get back to

work.” But we uncovered we uncovered so

much that I cannot believe uh I I cannot

believe it that it was as bad as it is.

And that brings up another point in our

broadcast industry here. We’ve got Dan

Bonino returning to his podcasts and

social media. Why did he leave? What

flipped him out that was so serious that

he couldn’t take it anymore? And Dan’s

no lightweight. He’s a respected

individual, but I’m want I want to know

why he left that environment. He was

most suited, best um most able to um uh

go after the uh wrongdoers. The one I

really respect the most, there’s two

people I respect the most right now. Tom

Hman under ICE, who has gone out of his

way to hang in, put his family under

lock and key for the threat of them

being harmed. Then on the other side of

the fence is a Senator John Federman who

stands out free speaking and I was

wondering about I worried about that guy

in the early days when he took office

but he turned out after his uh uh

healing of his own issue uh wellness he

he came back into the forefront and is

and is standing up for what’s right for

America not what’s right for the

Democrat party. There in lies the future

of the Democrat party if they survive in

the United States.

Yeah, I agree. You know, talking about

the fraud for a second, this is the most

amazing thing that we’ve seen. I mean,

we’re talking about people that are

actually going to the airport and

they’re so uh confident that nobody’s

going to do anything that they fill out

the forms. You know, if you take over

$10,000 in cash on an airplane, you have

to inform the uh the authorities that

you’re doing that. They took millions

and millions and millions of dollars out

of this country and all of this is is

where did Somali get all these millions

of dollars? Well, we know now they get

it from fraudulent activities. That’s

what they’re doing. That’s their sort of

emmo. That’s that’s how they operate in

Somalia. That’s why Somalia can’t have a

government that works because nobody

participates. They all steal from the

government and they think this is, you

know, sort of an honor to steal from the

government.

And so therefore, you’ve got that you’ve

got that mentality that comes to the

United States. I heard Sarah Huckabe

Sanders, the governor of Arkansas, say,

you know, you’re talking about if it’s

just 8 billion, maybe it’s 19 billion.

We don’t know for sure yet. They’re

still working on that number, but let’s

just assume and agree that it’s 8

billion. She said that’s $2 billion more

than our state government uses every

year. That’s how large this fraudulent

activity is in Minnesota. And then

you’ve got these governors and mayors.

You know, I heard the mayor yesterday

say he wanted the police to fight ICE on

the street. Did you see the look on that

police chief’s face that was standing

next to him?

Yeah. I don’t know where that police

chief stands, though. He He’s got a

strap on a set of uh intestinal

fortitude

that um needs to he needs to step up and

um and and u impose true law enforcement

there. Uh I I am angered when I see

these uh news clips in the evening and

nowhere to be found is the Minneapolis

Police Department or the state police.

Uh ICE stands alone and that to me is

the biggest offense. That wouldn’t be so

if uh ICE came to Florida or ICE came to

Mississippi. I’ll bet you uh dinner uh

the the local law enforcement and the

state police would be handinand glove

with ICE trying to uh remedy the

situation at hand. And and that is why

we need an enforcable

law enforcement um uh clarity of law

that uh allows the federal government to

act um not only in the insurrection act

uh which is an exception to posatanis.

We need true uh mandates in place there.

There there there can be no compromise

by the state and local actors, the

elected officials. They must stand down

and at the very least they must

cooperate with federal law enforcement.

We are a nation of laws. This is exactly

why I wanted to unify the election

process to a national standard. You got

too many wing nuts at the local local

level. Um the the way we elect a

president in Alaska is different than

Mississippi is different than

Massachusetts.

We’ve got to have a common process in

place that imposes the rules uh and the

the election process in all 50 states of

the nation. You it’s too willy-nilly

now. And I’m demanding we get a

Republican Congress, a Republican

president to get some uh uh new uh

constitutional amendments in place to

address this because we’re witnessing

firsthand the recklessness of the

elected officials. Elected officials who

come and go and can’t get it right.

They’re all over the place. That’s why

we need constitutional amendments to

survive.

Yeah. had to codify everything that we

talk about and some of the things that

they’re doing. Anyway, that’s it. We’re

out of time. I do appreciate you.

So, yeah, just like that.

Hey, we could do another of this. But,

uh, in any case, I wonder though, you

know, the music’s playing, but I wonder

does he really need to to in to do the

insurrection act thing? Is that playing

into the hands of these guys? I’m not

sure. But anyway, we’ll talk about that

later at a later date. Thanks, Jean.

Thanks guys.
