00:00Thank you, how are you doing?
00:25My home state, New York, where's New York at, give me a shout!
00:30Damn right.
00:31Look, for those who don't know me, my name is Tom Holman.
00:36I began my career as a border patrol agent in 1984.
00:40After 34 years, I became the first director of Immigration and Customs Enforcement, ICE,
00:46that actually came up through the ranks.
00:48I've worked for six presidents, starting with Ronald Reagan.
00:52Every president I've worked for said they're going to secure the border.
00:57President Trump actually did it.
01:03He created the most secure border in our history, and that's a stone cold fact that data proves
01:10it.
01:11And guess what?
01:12He's going to do it again.
01:19Under President Trump, we cut illegal immigration by 90 percent, the lowest level in 45 years.
01:26Deportations rose to the highest level ever, including historic numbers of illegal alien
01:32gang members and criminals.
01:35Most importantly, four years under President Trump, we had 13 people we arrested on a terrorist
01:41watch list.
01:42Joe Biden, 381.
01:47And let's remember, let's remember, we got over two million known gotaways.
01:52How many of them came from a country that sponsored terrorism?
01:55God help us.
01:59Biden is the first president in American history to come into office and unsecure a border.
02:06Who the hell does that?
02:10On their first day in office, first day in office, Joe Biden and Kamala Harris suspended
02:14deportations.
02:16They stopped the border wall.
02:18They canceled remain in Mexico.
02:20They reinstated catch and release.
02:22They proposed amnesty for millions along with free health care.
02:26And now we have a record illegal immigration, a record number of women and children being
02:31sex trafficked, a record number of Americans dying from fentanyl, a record number of known
02:39suspected terrorists sneaking across our border.
02:41And here's what you need to know.
02:44This isn't mismanagement.
02:46This isn't incompetence.
02:47This is by design and it's a choice.
02:50It's national suicide.
02:57But you know what?
02:58On November 5th, the American people do have a choice and they're going to stop this madness.
03:06I got a message as a guy who spent 34 years deporting illegal aliens.
03:13I got a message to the millions of illegal aliens that Joe Biden's released in our country
03:18in violation of federal law.
03:20You better start packing now.
03:23You're damn right, because you're going home.
03:34I got another message, another message to the criminal cartels in Mexico.
03:40You smuggled enough fentanyl across this country to kill 148,000 young Americans.
03:45You have killed more Americans than every terrorist organization in the world combined.
03:50And that's when President Trump gets back in office.
03:53He's going to designate you a terrorist organization and he's going to wipe you off the face of
03:57the earth.
03:58You're done.
03:59You're done.
04:00You're done.
04:12President Trump is going to end the Biden-Harris open border madness.
04:16We will stop the drugs and the crime from pouring into your neighborhoods.
04:20President Trump has proven to the American people that he's a warrior and he's going
04:27to make America safe again.
04:29And you can take that to the bank.
