WEBVTT - Foreign Forces Are Sowing Discord on the Home Front 0:00:00.160 --> 0:00:03.160 A republic if you can keep it, Benjamin Franklin famously 0:00:03.200 --> 0:00:07.040 said in describing the handiwork of the Constitucial Convention in 0:00:07.080 --> 0:00:11.360 Philadelphia in seventeen eighty seven. What's not clear is whether 0:00:11.520 --> 0:00:13.520 Franklin or any of the founders had in mind the 0:00:13.680 --> 0:00:17.160 level of foreign influence and foreign operations currently taking place 0:00:17.239 --> 0:00:20.600 on US oil. Some are recent shocking reports and some 0:00:20.680 --> 0:00:24.160 shocking details from the DOHAC Autar conference this past weekend. 0:00:24.400 --> 0:00:27.560 Shine A spotlights on the extent of foreign operations currently 0:00:27.600 --> 0:00:30.160 happening here in these United States. All that and much 0:00:30.160 --> 0:00:37.440 more Insdae's episode of The Josh Hammershew. Well, we've hit 0:00:37.479 --> 0:00:39.400 this drum beat before, and we're not going to shy 0:00:39.440 --> 0:00:41.239 away from We're going to keep on hammering it. No 0:00:41.240 --> 0:00:43.599 pun intended for the first suple future, at least as 0:00:43.680 --> 0:00:45.960 long as it comes up. Where I'm talking about the 0:00:46.080 --> 0:00:51.599 extent of foreign influence operations that are currently having a ruinous, 0:00:52.080 --> 0:00:55.040 a ruinous effect when it comes to American politics more broadly, 0:00:55.080 --> 0:00:58.000 and above all, when it comes to sowing the seeds 0:00:58.000 --> 0:01:01.880 of discords on the America can write. Now, there's numerous 0:01:01.920 --> 0:01:03.959 data points, and we're going to hit all of them, 0:01:04.000 --> 0:01:07.560 But we will first talk about this bomb show report. 0:01:08.080 --> 0:01:10.679 And yes, I tried to use my verbiage a little 0:01:10.800 --> 0:01:13.000 more carefully. I'm not one of those guys who goes 0:01:13.040 --> 0:01:16.120 on X and does like three siren emojis breaking news. 0:01:16.120 --> 0:01:18.240 You know, Donald Trump took a particularly good poop. No, 0:01:18.319 --> 0:01:20.240 I mean, that's not how we roll here. We say 0:01:20.280 --> 0:01:23.600 we try to save our verbiage for the actual big stuff. 0:01:23.640 --> 0:01:25.640 So when I say bombshell, I actually really mean it 0:01:25.680 --> 0:01:30.640 to bombshell. So this was a really interesting report that 0:01:30.840 --> 0:01:35.120 came out just on Monday from an organization that is 0:01:35.200 --> 0:01:37.800 known in the industry as NCRI. It stands for a 0:01:37.880 --> 0:01:42.800 Network Contagion Research Institute. They are are loosely affiliated with 0:01:42.959 --> 0:01:46.959 Rutgers University in New Jersey, but they are an independent 0:01:47.080 --> 0:01:50.920 research organization. They specialize when it comes to to online 0:01:51.040 --> 0:01:54.880 extremism and social contagion, as the name would imply, and 0:01:55.040 --> 0:02:00.560 trends like that, misinformation, disinformation, a lot of psychology science, 0:02:00.600 --> 0:02:03.360 and information warfare. Fundamentally, what they're getting at here is 0:02:03.640 --> 0:02:06.320 information warfare. They've done any number of amazing sites in 0:02:06.320 --> 0:02:09.440 the past when it comes to various other woke maladies. 0:02:09.480 --> 0:02:11.880 When it comes to DEI when it comes to the 0:02:11.960 --> 0:02:16.040 transgender phenomenon and things like that. So here is the 0:02:16.120 --> 0:02:18.680 report that just came out on Monday from the Network 0:02:18.720 --> 0:02:23.760 Contagion Research Industry, is titled America Last How FWENTS is 0:02:24.080 --> 0:02:30.200 coordinated raids and foreign fake speech networks inflate his influence. 0:02:30.720 --> 0:02:36.040 We're talking here about the extent of Nick Fundas's foreign influence, 0:02:36.520 --> 0:02:41.040 social media boosting operations. All of this has been a 0:02:41.080 --> 0:02:43.200 source of speculation. Let me kind of back up there 0:02:43.200 --> 0:02:44.840 and just say it's been a source of speculation for 0:02:44.919 --> 0:02:47.400 a very, very very long time. There have been any 0:02:47.480 --> 0:02:49.560 number of debates. I've been privy to these debates. I've 0:02:49.600 --> 0:02:52.640 been a participant in these conversation debates. What is the 0:02:52.680 --> 0:02:55.640 extent of which all of the garbage that you're currently 0:02:55.680 --> 0:02:58.919 seeing from from some elements even of the so called right, 0:02:59.160 --> 0:03:01.280 hold aside the left. For the second focus on the right, 0:03:01.440 --> 0:03:04.040 what is the extent of which some of the garbage 0:03:04.080 --> 0:03:06.960 that you're seeing when it comes to the Hitler apologia 0:03:07.160 --> 0:03:10.000 to the Joseph Stalin apologia, when it comes to just 0:03:10.040 --> 0:03:14.600 the the the grotesque racism, misogynism, anti semitism, and ultimately 0:03:14.639 --> 0:03:18.639 culminating in what we have repeatedly described as this sincere 0:03:18.800 --> 0:03:25.119 conscientious information operation, ultimately trying to distance Christians and Jews 0:03:25.280 --> 0:03:28.639 and thereby destroy the modern American rights. So one of 0:03:28.680 --> 0:03:31.240 the questions all along has been how much of this 0:03:31.360 --> 0:03:34.000 actually is organic and how much of it actually is 0:03:34.040 --> 0:03:37.400 coming from foreign sources? No doubt some of it actually 0:03:37.440 --> 0:03:39.600 is organic. Let me let me say that first and foremost. 0:03:39.640 --> 0:03:42.280 I'm not going to just wave my hands here and 0:03:42.280 --> 0:03:46.720 say that all of this is just foreign that. I'm 0:03:46.720 --> 0:03:49.320 not gonna make that claim because it's simply not true. 0:03:49.520 --> 0:03:52.680 Some of it definitely is happening at an organic level, 0:03:52.800 --> 0:03:54.880 and that certainly ought to be troubling. For instance, there 0:03:54.880 --> 0:03:57.560 have been some some recent turning point USA events. There 0:03:57.600 --> 0:04:00.000 was at one event that the Vice President Jaduvans Partition 0:04:00.080 --> 0:04:03.560 Paiden at Ole miss in Ox, Mississippi, and you had 0:04:03.560 --> 0:04:06.960 someone who certainly was sounding the talking points of a 0:04:07.080 --> 0:04:09.800 Nick Fuentes or a so called Krouber. So was that 0:04:09.880 --> 0:04:13.240 individual himself influenced by foreigner domestic sources? I don't know, 0:04:13.600 --> 0:04:16.240 But certainly some of this actually is happening on the 0:04:16.279 --> 0:04:18.599 home front. That's a more complicated topic, and we're going 0:04:18.680 --> 0:04:21.280 to hold that aside for present purposes. But for now 0:04:21.320 --> 0:04:22.800 I want to talk a little bit more about this 0:04:23.080 --> 0:04:26.919 NCR study. So there's a lot of numbers potentially to 0:04:27.000 --> 0:04:30.159 break through here. But long story short. The reason that 0:04:30.240 --> 0:04:34.240 the Network Contagion Research Institute again, this independent organization based 0:04:34.279 --> 0:04:39.599 New Jersey studying online trends, information warfare, and misinformation disinformation. 0:04:40.440 --> 0:04:42.320 The way that they are able to actually start to 0:04:42.360 --> 0:04:45.320 get some of this data is because of the recent 0:04:45.839 --> 0:04:50.440 spotlight that Elon Musk correctly and righteously shines talking about 0:04:50.680 --> 0:04:54.279 where the actual accounts on his platform X are basing. So, 0:04:54.320 --> 0:04:57.719 in case y all forgot, this was fairly recently, just 0:04:57.760 --> 0:05:01.440 a few weeks ago. Really, when Elon one must develop 0:05:01.600 --> 0:05:05.760 this new tool over at Twitter xor of whatever we're 0:05:05.760 --> 0:05:08.120 calling it. And by the way, as an aside, how 0:05:08.120 --> 0:05:10.400 crazy it is that we still say Twitter also XX 0:05:10.440 --> 0:05:13.120 and it's been like three years since they rebranded. I mean, 0:05:13.160 --> 0:05:15.000 I'm not quite but almost three years since they rebranded, 0:05:15.080 --> 0:05:17.800 we're still calling it the old name. Probably a good sign. Frankly, Elon, 0:05:17.880 --> 0:05:19.799 you should have kept the old name in the first place. 0:05:19.839 --> 0:05:22.760 I digress. So he imfluenced this new feature a few 0:05:22.760 --> 0:05:26.680 weeks ago talking about or showing that an an individual 0:05:26.720 --> 0:05:30.080 account is based in the United States, Canada, UK, Nigeria, Pakistan, 0:05:30.120 --> 0:05:33.760 Who's Beckistan, Japan, India, whatever, And it's because of this 0:05:33.920 --> 0:05:36.120 tool that the NCRI is able to get some of 0:05:36.120 --> 0:05:38.040 this data. So let's actually get into some of the 0:05:38.160 --> 0:05:42.400 data that the good social scientists at NCRI were able 0:05:42.400 --> 0:05:44.320 to look at when it comes to who was actually 0:05:44.360 --> 0:05:47.880 boosting Nick Flentes and just as important, how is he 0:05:48.000 --> 0:05:52.280 being boost relative to similar or larger scale accounts. So 0:05:52.400 --> 0:05:55.000 the data that they poured over shows that Flentes is 0:05:55.080 --> 0:06:00.240 receiving more retweets than Elon Musk, despite Elon Musk being 0:06:00.240 --> 0:06:03.600 literally one hundred times the audience. So in the first 0:06:03.839 --> 0:06:07.560 thirty minutes posting a tweet, Nick Flentes dominates what are 0:06:07.640 --> 0:06:10.599 known as of velocity charts, which are just the sheer 0:06:10.640 --> 0:06:14.320 amount of retweets seemingly done in coorinated fashion. When you 0:06:14.360 --> 0:06:17.080 normalize this for a number of followers, you will see 0:06:17.080 --> 0:06:20.840 that when Does's account is getting dozens of note hundreds 0:06:20.839 --> 0:06:25.640 of times more Twitter velocity, more rapid fire, clearly coronated 0:06:25.760 --> 0:06:30.599 retweets done than accounts that are just drastically drastically larger. Again, 0:06:30.640 --> 0:06:34.680 Elon Musk being just one particularly example, sixty one percent 0:06:34.720 --> 0:06:36.599 of all of when does his retweets in the first 0:06:36.800 --> 0:06:40.120 thirty minutes of him posting something on X come from 0:06:40.200 --> 0:06:44.479 accounts that did this repeatedly across various posts. Ninety two 0:06:44.520 --> 0:06:46.919 percent of the accounts that are actually doing this for 0:06:47.040 --> 0:06:50.200 Nick flent days are actually fully anonymous. Ninety two percent 0:06:50.240 --> 0:06:52.520 are fully nonymous. And if you spend as much time 0:06:52.680 --> 0:06:56.600 in the shall we say, darker places of X as 0:06:56.640 --> 0:06:59.719 I do and have done recently, you will see that 0:06:59.839 --> 0:07:02.719 the these folks all kind of have the same basic look. 0:07:02.760 --> 0:07:04.599 They all have the Pepe the frog. They all have 0:07:04.640 --> 0:07:07.280 the name Gwiper in their name. They have a few 0:07:07.320 --> 0:07:09.720 things there in their in their bio that give it away. 0:07:09.880 --> 0:07:13.720 But there's no photo, there's no location, there's no contact folks. 0:07:13.720 --> 0:07:15.840 A lot of these are bots. A lot of these 0:07:15.880 --> 0:07:18.560 are bots, by the way, instantally a many of funds 0:07:18.600 --> 0:07:23.200 his most viral posts are indeed heavily retweeted by accounts 0:07:23.240 --> 0:07:26.200 that we now see are actually based in specific countries. 0:07:26.240 --> 0:07:30.560 Those countries are primarily, above all, India, Pakistan, Nigeria, Malaysia, 0:07:30.640 --> 0:07:35.880 and Indonesia. These countries by definition have no link whatsoever 0:07:36.480 --> 0:07:40.119 to the US political conversation. They are simply foreign bot 0:07:40.160 --> 0:07:44.200 forms that are attempting to influence the American rights and 0:07:44.280 --> 0:07:48.000 the American political conversation more generally. Overall, when you look 0:07:48.040 --> 0:07:52.080 at at Nick Funds's tweets over the past year or two, 0:07:52.440 --> 0:07:55.320 you will see that the total number of retweets from 0:07:55.480 --> 0:07:59.480 Western countries more broadly is roughly fifty one percent compared 0:07:59.520 --> 0:08:03.240 to forty nine percent for non Western countries. There's a 0:08:03.280 --> 0:08:07.160 lot more where this came from. There are twenty Funds posts, 0:08:07.160 --> 0:08:11.080 for instance, that were examined by NCRI. Just over sixty 0:08:11.120 --> 0:08:14.360 percent came, as I said, from these same repeated accounts. 0:08:15.040 --> 0:08:15.880 The report says this. 0:08:15.920 --> 0:08:18.760 It says quote there is no organic explanation for this 0:08:18.840 --> 0:08:24.200 pattern none. It is consistent with outsourced engagement infrastructure. These 0:08:24.240 --> 0:08:29.160 geographies subscribe the same low cost amplification clusters and engagement 0:08:29.240 --> 0:08:34.160 farms that foreign actors often use to manufacture virality, distort 0:08:34.280 --> 0:08:40.040 platform metrics, and manipulate recommendation systems. So, taken together, the 0:08:40.040 --> 0:08:45.000 evidence points to a deliberate, foreign influenced campaign relying on 0:08:45.080 --> 0:08:50.400 anonymous and possibly automated accounts to artificially inflate Nick Fundus's reach. 0:08:50.800 --> 0:08:55.440 Gaming the platform's algorithm in a systematic effort to elevate 0:08:55.480 --> 0:09:00.679 his influence far beyond what genuine grassroots supports could would achieve. 0:09:01.559 --> 0:09:06.920 So it's coordinated foreign bot farms from places like India, Pakistan, 0:09:07.040 --> 0:09:11.960 Malaysia and Nigeria above all that are essentially engage in 0:09:12.200 --> 0:09:16.600 coordinated retweeting of this guy into much greater, far greater 0:09:16.679 --> 0:09:20.240 relevance than his organic metrics would otherwise entail or would 0:09:20.280 --> 0:09:25.400 otherwise necessitate. And then you have US based organizations that 0:09:25.480 --> 0:09:28.440 buy the hype, that see these one hundred thousand views 0:09:28.480 --> 0:09:30.120 on a reply and they're like, oh my god, this 0:09:30.160 --> 0:09:32.520 guy's got a huge following. Oh yeah, let's go ahead 0:09:32.559 --> 0:09:34.800 and do a New York Times puff beast making out 0:09:34.880 --> 0:09:36.880 Nick flent Is to look like the next James Dean. 0:09:37.520 --> 0:09:38.920 There was that photo of The Times that I think 0:09:39.000 --> 0:09:41.280 was a Michelle Goldberg opinion columnies guy like the James 0:09:41.280 --> 0:09:46.760 Deans slip back hair. Disgusting, disgusting stuff, folks. This is 0:09:46.840 --> 0:09:51.840 all done for a very very simple, insidious reason. This 0:09:51.920 --> 0:09:58.320 is coming from hostile sources, These Pakistani bot farms, the Pakistanis, 0:09:58.360 --> 0:10:00.920 the Nigerian Muslims, have whoever do doing this there they 0:10:00.960 --> 0:10:06.040 do not have the American best interest at heart. They 0:10:06.080 --> 0:10:09.840 do not have maga's best interest at heart. They are 0:10:09.920 --> 0:10:14.080 trying to make the right go crazy, and they're all 0:10:14.120 --> 0:10:17.600 sorts of folks who are obviously falling for it. There 0:10:17.600 --> 0:10:21.160 are all sorts of folks who are mistaking online bot 0:10:21.240 --> 0:10:24.960 farm for an engagement driven activity and then saying, oh 0:10:25.040 --> 0:10:27.600 my god, there's really an organic trend in this country 0:10:28.160 --> 0:10:31.320 towards Nazism or Hitlerism. 0:10:30.800 --> 0:10:31.640 Or this or that. 0:10:32.000 --> 0:10:35.280 Have you ever wondered why, maybe there's a lunaticer too, 0:10:35.320 --> 0:10:38.439 who's in your social life, who you see at church 0:10:38.520 --> 0:10:41.360 or the YMCA or whatever, who maybe listens to Candice 0:10:41.400 --> 0:10:43.600 Ownes whatever. But there's really not as much of that 0:10:43.840 --> 0:10:47.120 as you tend to see from online. Yeah, because actually 0:10:47.120 --> 0:10:51.320 a lot of it really is online until it trickles 0:10:51.320 --> 0:10:53.160 out into the real world. That's the more dangerous part. 0:10:53.160 --> 0:10:55.200 But for now it is imperative. It's important to know 0:10:56.320 --> 0:10:59.079 that much of this is coming from online. Again, not 0:10:59.160 --> 0:11:00.960 all of it, but a d amount of it is 0:11:01.000 --> 0:11:05.080 currently coming from online. Now again, Elon Musk has done 0:11:05.600 --> 0:11:08.680 the world really a huge favor by shining this botolne 0:11:08.880 --> 0:11:11.920 and allowing us to see which accounts are actually based 0:11:11.920 --> 0:11:14.439 the United States, which are foreign there. I can't help 0:11:14.480 --> 0:11:16.480 but openly wonder as to whether or not there is 0:11:16.520 --> 0:11:19.320 an even more clariant way for Elon Musk to go 0:11:19.320 --> 0:11:21.720 about doing this. There is there a way, for instance, 0:11:21.720 --> 0:11:25.440 when you click on someone's bio like right, there may 0:11:25.559 --> 0:11:28.800 one click away from the bio page to show what 0:11:28.960 --> 0:11:32.680 percentage of that account's followers are American or non American? 0:11:32.679 --> 0:11:35.559 What percentage are in this country that country, that country? 0:11:35.600 --> 0:11:38.400 Can we get like a country by country breakdown, mister Musk, 0:11:38.720 --> 0:11:41.880 of a given accounts followers one tweet away, similar to 0:11:41.920 --> 0:11:44.839 how you can now get one click away to actually 0:11:44.880 --> 0:11:46.679 see where the account is based in the first place. 0:11:47.000 --> 0:11:49.319 Something like that I think would be deeply helpful and 0:11:50.040 --> 0:11:55.640 deeply productive, an unambiguous good. It would be beneficial for 0:11:55.760 --> 0:12:00.680 our contemporary American political conversation. This is a very old tactic, 0:12:00.720 --> 0:12:04.120 by the way, a very very very old tactic when 0:12:04.120 --> 0:12:09.800 it comes to hostile foreign governments and foreign influencers who 0:12:09.960 --> 0:12:13.839 try to meddle in American politics and try to rile 0:12:13.920 --> 0:12:17.800 people up, to drive wedges and to ultimately sick certain 0:12:17.840 --> 0:12:20.640 Americans on each other, to make them attack each other, 0:12:20.840 --> 0:12:23.040 to try to make them hate each other. It is 0:12:23.080 --> 0:12:26.840 a very, very very old tactic. These Soviets were infamous 0:12:26.840 --> 0:12:28.920 for this during the nineteen sixties, at the heart of 0:12:28.920 --> 0:12:33.840 the Cold War, at the heights of the Civil Rights era. 0:12:34.000 --> 0:12:37.600 Martin Luther King Junior and all that the Soviets were infamous. 0:12:37.760 --> 0:12:41.120 They're having their useful idiot Communist Party USA stooges in 0:12:41.160 --> 0:12:44.000 the United States to go into, for instance, heavily black 0:12:44.040 --> 0:12:48.040 neighborhoods and to try to prop up radicals like Malcolm 0:12:48.200 --> 0:12:51.200 X and to discredit moderates like Martin Luther King Jr. 0:12:51.520 --> 0:12:54.520 Because they were trying to empower the crazies thereby sowing 0:12:54.559 --> 0:12:57.040 the seeds of discord and trying to make Americans hate 0:12:57.040 --> 0:12:58.960 one another. In that particular contest, they were trying to 0:12:59.040 --> 0:13:03.600 incite racial animus. Now they're currently trying to undermine Mecca, 0:13:03.679 --> 0:13:06.120 trying to undermine the American Right, which is the only 0:13:06.679 --> 0:13:10.120 force for good in American politics, by extension, for America's 0:13:10.200 --> 0:13:11.960 role on the world stage. The're trying to undermine that. 0:13:11.960 --> 0:13:14.880 They're trying to undermine the Jewish Christian Alliance, trying to 0:13:14.960 --> 0:13:16.880 undermine US support for Israel. 0:13:16.920 --> 0:13:17.560 Things like that. 0:13:17.720 --> 0:13:22.480 It's all coming from a dark, nefarious place that is very, 0:13:22.679 --> 0:13:25.400 very very relevant. So I'm just really happy that this, 0:13:26.080 --> 0:13:28.439 that this campaign and this and the support has come 0:13:28.480 --> 0:13:31.680 out from NCRI for what it's worth. Twent as responding 0:13:31.679 --> 0:13:34.000 and saying, oh my god, the NCRI. You know, there's 0:13:34.040 --> 0:13:37.560 like a big there's a George Soros operation. I have 0:13:37.640 --> 0:13:39.920 no idea where he's gaining this from, no idea. I 0:13:39.960 --> 0:13:43.120 don't take a penny from NCRI. I don't work for them. 0:13:43.200 --> 0:13:45.120 I know a couple of people that are involved with 0:13:45.280 --> 0:13:49.480 the organization from AFAR. They are not a Soros organization. 0:13:49.600 --> 0:13:52.719 They've done incredible work on totally unrelated issues in the 0:13:52.760 --> 0:13:55.199 past when it comes to DEI, transgenders and various of 0:13:55.200 --> 0:13:57.079 the wokes up there, they do a lot of good work. 0:13:57.120 --> 0:13:59.120 Go ahead and give them a follow check out the reports, 0:13:59.400 --> 0:14:02.120 because this is really really quite damning stuff. When it 0:14:02.120 --> 0:14:04.360 comes to Flint Days, I guess the natural follow up 0:14:04.400 --> 0:14:06.800 question would be, I would like to see the information 0:14:06.920 --> 0:14:08.520 not just for Nick Flint Days, but for a lot 0:14:08.600 --> 0:14:12.520 of these other toxic influencers on the American Rife Center 0:14:12.520 --> 0:14:15.240 as well. I would love, would absolutely love to see 0:14:15.240 --> 0:14:18.960 a country by country breakdown of Candice Owens's followers. I 0:14:19.000 --> 0:14:22.240 have a sneaky suspicion that she has a massive, massive, 0:14:22.960 --> 0:14:25.160 massive following right now if I had to guess when 0:14:25.240 --> 0:14:28.440 it comes to places like Pakistan. I mean, I could 0:14:28.440 --> 0:14:30.720 be wrong, but I'm pretty sure I'm not, and I 0:14:30.760 --> 0:14:32.720 would love to see that there. So elon Moska, there's 0:14:32.720 --> 0:14:35.200 a way to do that. Let's go ahead and make 0:14:35.280 --> 0:14:37.680 that happen. By the way, around the same time that 0:14:37.760 --> 0:14:42.600 the NCRI was releasing this, so just over this past weekend, actually, 0:14:43.400 --> 0:14:47.160 there was a conference in Doha, Qatar that you might 0:14:47.240 --> 0:14:51.480 have seen. This was the Doha Forum. It is It 0:14:51.560 --> 0:14:54.320 is a major conference every year you get you typically 0:14:54.360 --> 0:14:59.520 get various elites from American industry, from media, from technology, 0:14:59.120 --> 0:15:01.880 from hollywo They all go over to Doha to kiss 0:15:01.920 --> 0:15:04.120 the ring of the Altani family, which is the ruling 0:15:04.160 --> 0:15:08.120 family in Qatar, which is a modern day Islamist slave 0:15:08.160 --> 0:15:12.240 state essentially. And there's been a lot of speculations, speaking 0:15:12.240 --> 0:15:14.440 of speculations, speaking of foreign influence. Has been in a 0:15:14.480 --> 0:15:18.400 lot of speculation as to the extent of Tucker Carlson's 0:15:18.960 --> 0:15:23.160 personal involvement with Katar. Mark Levin has been calling Tucker 0:15:23.200 --> 0:15:26.560 Carlson Kat Charlson, Tucker Cartarlson for months and months now 0:15:26.640 --> 0:15:30.800 on his very powerful radio broadcast, Tucker Carlson, we know 0:15:31.120 --> 0:15:35.320 interviewed the Amir of Katar, the premiere Alton. He interviewed 0:15:35.400 --> 0:15:39.440 him earlier this year in twenty and twenty five. And 0:15:39.600 --> 0:15:43.240 we actually also know, as a result of some very 0:15:43.640 --> 0:15:47.200 very innovative investigator reporting from the Washington Examiner and others, 0:15:47.440 --> 0:15:50.320 that there is a very sketchy mom and pop consulting 0:15:50.360 --> 0:15:55.280 firm located in northern Virginia called Lumin eight Advisors, which 0:15:55.280 --> 0:15:58.400 you never heard of. They fired a FARA registration aw 0:15:58.440 --> 0:16:00.880 so thereby registering as a foreign age and on behalf 0:16:01.000 --> 0:16:05.360 of the Embassy of Katar, they were making an obscene 0:16:05.400 --> 0:16:07.640 amount of money. It was like close to two hundred 0:16:07.680 --> 0:16:10.760 thousand dollars a month or something like that. And on 0:16:10.800 --> 0:16:17.080 their far registration paperwork Illuminated Advisors. Their one principal source 0:16:17.160 --> 0:16:20.400 of business that they publicly listed in the US government 0:16:20.400 --> 0:16:23.680 registration document, their principal place of business that they listed 0:16:23.920 --> 0:16:26.320 for doing their work on behalf of the Embassy of 0:16:26.360 --> 0:16:30.720 Katar was the Tucker Carlson Show. So the interview that 0:16:30.760 --> 0:16:33.400 Tuck Carlson did, what I'm saying with Al Tani, the 0:16:33.440 --> 0:16:36.240 Amir of Katar earlier this year was a literal boughtom 0:16:36.240 --> 0:16:38.800 paid for interview. How do I know that because the 0:16:38.800 --> 0:16:42.840 illuminated advisors people who arranged the interview, literally wrote it 0:16:43.240 --> 0:16:46.760 on their far Registration Act form. They got paid oodles 0:16:46.760 --> 0:16:50.120 and ools of money to arrange the interview. Tucker, of course, 0:16:50.160 --> 0:16:54.120 has been downplaying the extent of Shria law. He has 0:16:54.160 --> 0:16:56.400 been making light of Shria law, saying, oh my god, 0:16:56.440 --> 0:16:58.520 look at these beautiful cities in the Middle Least. They 0:16:58.560 --> 0:17:01.800 have these beautiful skyline and there's no crime, and there's 0:17:01.840 --> 0:17:03.680 this and that, there's real law. How bad can it be? 0:17:04.200 --> 0:17:06.080 So I think a lot of people started paying attention 0:17:06.560 --> 0:17:10.920 when this past weekend it came out that Tucker actually 0:17:11.040 --> 0:17:13.520 was going to go to Doha for the Doha Forum 0:17:13.560 --> 0:17:16.320 as part of this total boondoggle, this junk kets. Oh wait, 0:17:16.320 --> 0:17:18.480 but it actually wasn't just Tucker Carlson. It was actually 0:17:18.480 --> 0:17:23.600 also his business partner, Neil Patel, his co founder of 0:17:23.680 --> 0:17:25.920 The Daily Caller from way way back in the day, 0:17:26.640 --> 0:17:32.360 and unbelievably, unbelievably over the weekend, it was actually on Sunday, 0:17:32.600 --> 0:17:37.800 Neil Patel tweets out this photo of him and Tucker 0:17:37.800 --> 0:17:40.879 Carlson standing next to each other, and they both have 0:17:40.960 --> 0:17:43.919 what looks like a cocktail in their hands, which is 0:17:43.960 --> 0:17:46.479 itself a little odd because last I checked, Tucker Carlston 0:17:46.480 --> 0:17:48.840 had publicly said that he had gone sober after having 0:17:48.840 --> 0:17:52.400 an alcohol problem in past years, So maybe he's back 0:17:52.440 --> 0:17:54.800 on the sauce, which itself would explain some of his 0:17:55.000 --> 0:17:56.679 recent behavior, at least to an extent. 0:17:56.880 --> 0:17:58.800 So I don't know. I'm just asking questions. What do 0:17:58.840 --> 0:17:59.040 I know? 0:17:59.320 --> 0:18:02.679 But anyway, this particular tweet Neil batail the two numbers 0:18:02.680 --> 0:18:05.119 he got there, Tucker is flipping his middle finger of 0:18:05.240 --> 0:18:09.240 the camera, and the caption that Neielbletel tweets is greetings 0:18:09.240 --> 0:18:12.080 from the blood He has a tie with Kevin rypropertly 0:18:12.119 --> 0:18:16.200 greens from the blood thirsty terror supporting slave state of Katar. 0:18:16.920 --> 0:18:19.800 So there's Tucker drinking some fancy cocktail, but don't worry, 0:18:19.800 --> 0:18:24.080 he's totally non alcoholic drinking some fancy cocktail, flipping the camera. 0:18:24.600 --> 0:18:27.119 And then Neille Tell's tweet, so who they're actually flipping 0:18:27.160 --> 0:18:30.600 off is directed at Mark Levin, Ted Cruz and Laura Lumer. 0:18:31.280 --> 0:18:33.879 By the way, in the other photo in this Neebletael tweet, 0:18:34.000 --> 0:18:38.600 it shows Tucker just laughing with Donald Trump Junior in 0:18:38.840 --> 0:18:42.160 Doha at the Doha Forum, which is itself somewhat disturbing, 0:18:42.160 --> 0:18:44.560 to put them mildly. And there are all sorts of 0:18:44.560 --> 0:18:47.240 other questions when it comes to the extent of the 0:18:47.280 --> 0:18:50.040 Witcoff business enterprises, when it comes to the extent of 0:18:50.040 --> 0:18:52.680 the Trump Organization's dealings with Katar. But for present purposes, 0:18:53.119 --> 0:18:58.080 let's just say that the single leading vector, the single 0:18:58.160 --> 0:19:01.120 leading vector when it comes to doing what Fun is 0:19:01.119 --> 0:19:03.000 doing when it comes to trying to sow the seeds 0:19:03.040 --> 0:19:07.000 of discord on the American right and implode MAGA from within. 0:19:07.240 --> 0:19:12.080 The single most important arrow in this quiver of information 0:19:12.160 --> 0:19:16.479 operation arrows is Tucker Carlson, and he is there drinking 0:19:16.520 --> 0:19:21.399 in cocktail, flipping off Americans from Katar after having done 0:19:21.400 --> 0:19:24.240 a bottom paid interview with the premiere. But wait, it 0:19:24.320 --> 0:19:28.360 actually gets worse. It literally gets worse, because Tucker interviewed 0:19:28.359 --> 0:19:31.880 the Amir of Qatar again, the second interview he's done 0:19:31.920 --> 0:19:34.440 now in less than half a year or something like that, 0:19:34.760 --> 0:19:38.840 with the leader of Katar. He did it the Doha Forum, 0:19:39.119 --> 0:19:43.119 and he said this utterly utterly shocking thing. Go ahead 0:19:43.119 --> 0:19:43.520 and watch this. 0:19:44.040 --> 0:19:47.560 I am, however, tomorrow, buying a place in Qatar because 0:19:47.680 --> 0:19:51.080 I am pe Hichech in Doha yah, and I'm doing 0:19:51.080 --> 0:19:53.320 that because I like the city. I think it's beautiful, 0:19:53.920 --> 0:19:55.680 but also to make the statement that I'm an American 0:19:55.720 --> 0:19:58.120 and a free man and I'll be wherever I want 0:19:58.119 --> 0:19:58.280 to be. 0:19:58.760 --> 0:19:59.040 Okay. 0:19:59.119 --> 0:20:01.520 So he's there in Doha saying that he's going to 0:20:01.600 --> 0:20:06.000 buy a condo, a house, whatever, in Katar, I'm trying 0:20:06.000 --> 0:20:07.959 to say, because he's trying to show that he's a 0:20:08.000 --> 0:20:11.440 free man, that he's an American. Katar is the number 0:20:11.760 --> 0:20:16.480 one financial and ideological sponsor of radical soony Islam the 0:20:16.520 --> 0:20:19.399 rolled over. They have been caught red handed connected to 0:20:19.560 --> 0:20:23.320 every single radical Islamist terrorist group you can possibly name, 0:20:23.480 --> 0:20:26.479 up to and including Al Qaeda and Isis. I mean 0:20:26.520 --> 0:20:29.520 to say nothing of Hamas, which they are the number 0:20:29.520 --> 0:20:34.280 one patrons of. This is a terrorist state, a terrorist 0:20:34.320 --> 0:20:37.240 state involved, as we've discussed in the show, in deep, 0:20:37.480 --> 0:20:42.240 deep rooted sprawling, an intricate duplicity when it comes to 0:20:42.320 --> 0:20:44.000 their hosting of value, date air. 0:20:43.960 --> 0:20:44.600 Based and things like that. 0:20:44.600 --> 0:20:47.679 They're Qatar is an enemy though of the United states, 0:20:48.560 --> 0:20:51.320 they are an enemy. I don't care that even the 0:20:51.320 --> 0:20:55.800 Trumpdministration has now defined them as a as a as 0:20:55.800 --> 0:20:59.600 a NATO Article five worthy an attack on them in 0:20:59.640 --> 0:21:01.360 his attack US style quot ungquale. 0:21:01.400 --> 0:21:05.800 They are not. They are not that they are horrific 0:21:06.040 --> 0:21:06.879 terror supporters. 0:21:07.000 --> 0:21:09.440 So Tucker Carlton trying to do the so called America 0:21:09.480 --> 0:21:12.800 first thing from the number one country that has invested 0:21:12.840 --> 0:21:15.320 in American higher education for the worst, trying to turn 0:21:15.320 --> 0:21:19.520 American higher education into a broader Muslim Brotherhood Islamist theocracy 0:21:20.560 --> 0:21:24.720 Bashim Katar, which along with the Brotherhood, is investing oodles 0:21:24.720 --> 0:21:26.639 and ools money according to a brand report when it 0:21:26.640 --> 0:21:29.440 comes to getting taxpayer money in the European Union as well, 0:21:29.640 --> 0:21:32.879 all for the same goal. Katar's goal is to Islamicize 0:21:32.880 --> 0:21:36.199 the West. Their goal is to spread these seeds of 0:21:36.240 --> 0:21:40.200 the Muslim Brotherhood throughout the West. Why do you think 0:21:40.200 --> 0:21:43.720 the trumpministration finally signed this water down milk toast Muslim 0:21:43.720 --> 0:21:46.920 Brotherhood baned recently because there are more reports coming out 0:21:47.040 --> 0:21:50.359 about the extent of the Brotherhood's information operations and the 0:21:50.359 --> 0:21:52.760 extent to which they are trying to disseminate their propaganda 0:21:52.800 --> 0:21:57.240 When it comes to American higher education, media boondoggles parties. 0:21:56.880 --> 0:21:57.440 This at there. 0:21:57.600 --> 0:21:59.800 That is why the administration finally acted in someone half 0:21:59.800 --> 0:22:05.359 hour fashion in Middlely. Tucker doesn't care. Tucker doesn't care 0:22:05.359 --> 0:22:08.359 at all. I mean, explains me what the America first 0:22:08.359 --> 0:22:12.800 cases for buying a condo in Dohak, Katar. There's no 0:22:12.920 --> 0:22:14.240 culture in Doha, Qatar. 0:22:14.680 --> 0:22:15.600 It's a slave state. 0:22:16.760 --> 0:22:19.959
