Video Transcript AI Summary
If we were seen as a sanctuary program, especially one using federal dollars, we'd face a lot of problems. To avoid scrutiny, we strategically omit status inquiries from our federal statutes by subtly influencing bill language in congress.
Now, with the new efficiency team's surveillance, communication has moved offline to encrypted apps like Signal, even though we're not supposed to conduct business there.
They've installed software to track keystrokes and monitor our calls. If I end up on leave, I'm headed to the beach, taxpayer money well spent! Many in administrative roles are already leaving since we can't do much anyway. If I'm in Mexico, don't worry about it.
Speaker 0: If they actually do
Speaker 1: Yeah. I'm gonna actually do. But we don't have that. There would be a lot of problems. Lot of problems.
Speaker 0: Why? Because would we would be we would be, like, positioned as, like, being a sanctuary.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Like, sanctuary city. We would be we're, a sanctuary program where we're spending federal dollars on at Lake Limerick.
Speaker 0: Like, they shut off everyone's access to everything. They're, like, in the building looking through everything. It I'm telling you, it it is insanity.
Speaker 1: It sounds like a bad movie.
Speaker 0: Yeah. Yeah. It's like democracy falling should be, like, the title of the movie. I mean, if you wanna have a conversation with somebody, you do have to take it offline, but you're not
Speaker 1: supposed to. So I mean, you have to now.
Speaker 0: Yeah. So everybody uses that it's Snap on Signal now. Oh.
Speaker 2: And you're all on, like, video chat or what? Like
Speaker 0: Yeah. So that's it's just like a text messaging app. It's like a WhatsApp. Oh, okay.
Speaker 3: But it's encrypted end to end.
Speaker 4: Nice. So you can do business stuff on there?
Speaker 0: You're not supposed to, but yeah. What I do is I oversee a team of seven staff who develop professional development projects for teachers Wow. In, like, adult education. So GED programs, high school diploma programs, ESL programs, citizenship, correction, different programs like that.
Speaker 1: And if they're undocumented, they can do it from you?
Speaker 0: They can if as long as they, like, follow the process. So, like, if they're a DACA recipient, then they have to follow, like, the rules for DACA. But if they're illegal illegal, it's gonna be pretty hard. The one nice thing about the program that I work in is, like, we don't ask status, and we've, like, been able to keep that out of our federal statute. Like so we don't ask them when they enroll what their status is.
Speaker 1: How did you rate how are you able to do that?
Speaker 0: Very strategically, we just provide guidance to the bill, and we're like they'll, like, put something in. We're like, oh, no. That doesn't it won't work for
Speaker 1: the program,
Speaker 0: so they don't vote then. Like Wow. There's a lot of maneuvering you have to do at the federal level with congress.
Speaker 1: People try to push through that you have to do that. Like, congress is trying to push through block. Yeah. But then we block it. So you didn't have to reach the cross party line for that.
Well We just hide it in the to hide it in the block.
Speaker 0: You can just hide it in the bill. They don't.
Speaker 1: They don't.
Speaker 0: They mark up a bill, they only read, like,
Speaker 1: sex It's not a cruise.
Speaker 0: You gotta wait to get the
Speaker 1: And so if you can squeeze something in You never do that. Correct. To not ask somebody? Yeah. Wow.
That's brilliant. And then they only read the part they wanna they wanna know that. We generally don't know. Brilliant. Then you just take out or put in there that they can't ask status.
We
Speaker 0: don't actually put it in there.
Speaker 1: We just take that out. That they have to ask status. We leave it silent. Silent. We don't say that they can or that they should or that they shouldn't.
You just leave it completely out. Perfect. So you'll still you'll still have that So the next the next even though the targeted ed, that's still in place? Yeah. That's good.
Yeah. It's really good. Yeah. Because then a lot of funding would be rescinded on that too. Oh, yeah.
The ports If they
Speaker 0: actually do
Speaker 1: yeah. Hundreds actually do. But we don't have that. There would be a lot of problems. A lot of problems.
Speaker 0: Why? They would we would be pushed.
Speaker 1: We would be, like,
Speaker 0: the position of, like, being a sanctuary.
Speaker 1: You know, they have, like, sanctuary cities. We would be we're, a sanctuary program where we're spending federal dollars on Italy glimmer.
Speaker 0: Big misconception is, like, we set, like, the curriculum, and we set up student learning and everything. We don't do any of that. Oh. Like, we just provide funding to The States, like, to carry out public education.
Speaker 1: Where is in relation to the rest
Speaker 0: of the world is UX education? Oh, I mean, probably sitting thirties, forties. I didn't know that.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Not good.
Speaker 0: Like, they shut off everyone's access to everything. They're, like, in the building looking through everything.
Speaker 1: They're in the building?
Speaker 0: Oh, yeah. Yeah. Like the Doge team.
Speaker 1: What is Doge again?
Speaker 0: It's Elon Musk's, like, efficiency team. They've, like, moved into the Seventh Floor, which is, the secretary's floor.
Speaker 1: Oh.
Speaker 0: And for his team, his or her team, like, moved all of the senior leadership staff out of their offices. So, like, they're sitting in the hallways and cubicles now, and the Doge team have, like, taken, like, the prime real estate of the floor. Like, they've put they've put software on our computers that, like, they track keystrokes. So, like, they know exactly what we're saying in real time, like, they put monitors on, like, Teams. So, like, they can listen to the calls that we have with, like, team members or contractors, like
Speaker 1: So have you been having them off offline somewhere else?
Speaker 0: I mean, if you wanna have a conversation with somebody, you do have to take it offline, but you're not
Speaker 1: supposed to. I mean, you have to now.
Speaker 0: Yeah. So everybody uses that it's an app called Signal now. Oh.
Speaker 2: And you're all on, like, video chat or what? Like?

Speaker 1: Everyone's googling? Everybody. Because they don't want it. Yeah. Because, right, they I
Speaker 0: told them that their computers now have, like, tracking on them.
Speaker 1: Now we do this. So either going to be allowed to see what they're doing.
Speaker 4: What if people would find out?
Speaker 0: Alright. And then it might be, like, twenty five seventy five. Everyone's like, what are you gonna do if they if they put you on leave? I'm like, go to the beach, now the taxpayer is done. Like, not.
What do want me to tell you?
Speaker 1: I'm shocked more people aren't trying to do that.
