>> you know, i believe everybody knows my brother now. i've seen stuff on my brother from all across the country, even across the world, to be honest, and i think people really know that my brother did not deserve this. he was not that type of person. yeah, he was just, man, like, yeah, he was just a good guy around the board, so people know who he is, and, again, i'm going to say the same thing i have been saying, we want justice. we want everybody that was involved with this to, you know, get that sentence, like. >> jamal, thank you. please give our regards to your family. ben, thank you as well. give our regards, especially ms. rowvaughn and mr. rodney, we will speak to you soon as this
nicholins any type of medical help. and the memphis police department has pointedhelp, and. that is part of the charges here.'s and at this point, it's nott the five just the five officers at one point, maybe eight , nine o eightr ten people on sces and nobody appears to be scrambling for help. fothe bottom line, it's hard w to tell what initial threat there waheres to police thated e justified the response that may come out in court orresponse wht prompted the beating at the second scene. terry nichols, we shoulde beati, is six foot three , one hundred forty five pounds with no criminal history. so lots of questions and veryioa nddamning evidence. ver it has been compared many times to the rodney king beating. we can. it's tell you it wasn't as long. we don't know the severity. we do know that rodney rodney that rurvived and terry nichols diodd not survive. s >> tucker gallagher for us ,k y. thank you. >>sa well,id as we said, that vo is hard to watch. parts of it are brutal. it seems like an abuse of power .
imagine. >> jesse: judge, how do you think the memphis police department and the authorities have handled the situation so far? 's before they got out in front of it, jesse, they charged as you said the murderer in the second degree along with other felonies talking about kidnapping as well as every possible crime they have been charged with. my understanding is that the d.a. is well respected there. that the governor along with the mayor in the town that worked well with the community and you may recall that even during the george floyd riots, memphis was relatively quiet. i come i like everybody at the table and i'm sure in america, is just kind of holding my breath, hoping that it is not as bad as they say it is. the truth is, we already know it's worse than rodney can come around again didn't i. we found a family who is got a
cleaned up if there were consequences in place if there were consequences to illegal entry, people are held until they had a hearing or they had to wait in mexico which is a program we had before, or they were just immediately removed to their countries. we can do those things. we can put pressure on other countries to take back their own citizens. that is the other thing this administration has not done. they have not leveraged any of the power that this nation has to get other countries to step up to do their part. will: you know, rodney, you talking about whether or not he would have, or put himself in the position to have the truth being told to him by border patrol agents, there is reason to be pessimistic about that because as pete mentioned alejandro mayorkas will be coming on the trip as well, these are the type of things, take a look at this, said by alejandro mayorkas in the past. >> the border is secure. the border, we working to make the border more secure.
encounters, not illegals, if you're faking asylum process that is a crime. year 2022 year-to-date, there were 500,000 more or less between october to january of 2022. we're already at 718,000 in fiscal year-to-date 2023. that is from october to january of 2023. what is the average daily encounters at the border? almost 7,000. help us out, rodney, put that numbers in context what you experienced just years ago. how big is a 7,000 encounter a day number? >> it is off the charts. former secretary over obama, 1000 a day, 4,000 in custody makes him lose sleep. people need to put that into perspective. every single call those a number, that a man hour minimum of processing. that is not about any type of transport or anything else, that is an hour in front of the computer processing that
that has been an historic challenge. >> secretary mayorkas do you continue to maintain the border is secure? >> question, and we are working day in and day out to enhance its security, congressman. let me be clear, title 42 or not, the border is not open. we will continue to fully enforce our immigration laws, in a safe, orderly around humane manner. will: that is what he hears from alejandro mayorkas, rodney. if he talks to residents of el paso as we did earlier this morning he would hear about yes, the role of ngos when it comes to asylum-seekers but they really pointed out to me the increase in those who do not want to be caught and those seeking refuge with churches in town or wherever it may be but those over here and really coming to do no good, who are causing criminality. >> correct. and just statistically they
not done. they've not leveraged any of the power this nation has to get other countries to step up and do their part. will: yeah, there you go. there's -- pete: go ahead, will. will: i was going to say, pete, you know, before rodney, we talked with some local residents here in el paso about just how bad this has gotten. and i don't believe, pete and emily -- look, we can have a conversation about whether or not the truth is being hidden from joe biden. he knows the truth. he has a television. one of the ten programs in the white house has the fox news channel on. this is about creating a village for the american public and the cameras that follow joe biden. this is about hiding the truth from the people, quite honestly, that don't watch pox. pete: that's an excellent point, will. the reason he didn't want to go so long and will only be there for a short period of time is because the press pool follows him, a press pool that normally ignores this issue. and they'll be forced to.
handling this? as you said, it never happened before, it is unprecedented. how did they do? >> i think they did a very good job. they put the concern of their players first. they prioritize us ain o and yo that from the bills, they were not in the state of mind to be able to finish that game. and so the league took that into consideration and they did the right thing at stopping this and, like i said, prioritizing our health. we have to do that as players as well. we can't turn our backs, we can't walk away. we can't stay in silence when injuries do occur because it is real. and they have long-term effects. >> yeah. rodney mccloud, we're grateful for you being here with us this morning. thank you. >> thank you, rodney. >> thank you. >> so joining us now is jordan rooney, damar hamlin's friend and marketing representative.
