My summary of what was said by Simcox:
Because it's so hot, they're putting off some of the work on the fences until fall when it's cooler....[I note the website timeline doesn't reflect that, or didn't yesterday anyhow.]
They are doing a lot of work behind the scenes, that the man "with the little model airplane can't see as he flies along the border."
Repairing fences around San Diego.
Accuses the ABC 15 piece of being yellow journalism, taking soundbites and comments out of context. Took soundbites of a 90 minute interview and distilled to 15 minutes, put answers with different questions. Portapotties are at the command center, not out in the desert.
Funding is going to national command center, thermal imaging equipment, computers, travel expenses for national leadership team, fuel for volunteers, etc.
Reporter says Simcox should have recorded entire interview so that he could prove what was said. Simcox says that now he's doing that, but some reporters won't interview him under those conditions.
They've hired lawyers, accountants, caging company, to assure financial accountability. Simcox doesn't touch finances because IRS would love to find them doing something wrong. Protected themselves with professionals who would be foolish to work with unethical organizations.
ABC clearly was trying to do a hitpiece. One couple interviewed is mad because they were terminated because they clearly had a racist agenda. Now they're on a vendetta.
3rd party devoted to border control? would like to awaken sleeping majority. People are concerned that can't reform either party. Have to build organizations in each state to grow a 3rd party so MMCDC is building that infrastructure. 2008 would be too soon, but have created a MM PAC, seeking alternative candidates to challenge the status quo.
This reporter was clearly sympathetic to Simcox, so no hitpiece here.
