1
00:00:21,920 --> 00:00:24,560
Speaker 1: Good evening, America, and welcome to the Wednesday edition of

2
00:00:24,720 --> 00:00:27,280
Speaker 1: Justin Use No Noise. I'm your host, John Solomon, reporting

3
00:00:27,320 --> 00:00:29,840
Speaker 1: to you actually today from West Palm Beach in the

4
00:00:29,880 --> 00:00:33,280
Speaker 1: great and Beautiful for America's Voice Studios down in Florida.

5
00:00:34,479 --> 00:00:37,760
Speaker 1: A lot to cover today. A historic but admittedly tenuous

6
00:00:38,040 --> 00:00:42,800
Speaker 1: agreement between the United States in Israel and Iran is

7
00:00:42,800 --> 00:00:45,680
Speaker 1: holding thus farm. But I do use the word tenuous

8
00:00:45,720 --> 00:00:49,040
Speaker 1: because there are lots of difficult issues to work out,

9
00:00:49,080 --> 00:00:53,240
Speaker 1: and those issues were front and center today. Is uranium

10
00:00:53,280 --> 00:00:57,400
Speaker 1: and enrichment off the table for Iran. Is Israel's ability

11
00:00:57,440 --> 00:01:01,240
Speaker 1: to attack Lebanon part of the deal. Confusion, some doubts,

12
00:01:01,280 --> 00:01:04,640
Speaker 1: some across the board, media negotiating going on between the

13
00:01:04,680 --> 00:01:07,559
Speaker 1: two sides. President Trump making very clear the final deal

14
00:01:07,920 --> 00:01:11,160
Speaker 1: will not allow Iran to have enriched uranium. We'll see

15
00:01:11,160 --> 00:01:12,959
Speaker 1: if the Iranians are on board and that we're going

16
00:01:13,040 --> 00:01:14,920
Speaker 1: to be talking about that all show along, including in

17
00:01:14,920 --> 00:01:19,000
Speaker 1: a few seconds with a former CIA senior intelligence officer,

18
00:01:19,120 --> 00:01:21,480
Speaker 1: Sam Fattis, who's been on top of this from the beginning.

19
00:01:21,640 --> 00:01:23,480
Speaker 1: A quick programming note before I throw it over to

20
00:01:23,520 --> 00:01:26,160
Speaker 1: my amazing co host tomorrow night, I want you to

21
00:01:26,160 --> 00:01:28,759
Speaker 1: tune in market calendar. I'm going to release some new

22
00:01:28,880 --> 00:01:32,920
Speaker 1: declassified documents about the Ukraine impeachment. You will learn that

23
00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:36,040
Speaker 1: it was based on hearsay information from a partisan, in

24
00:01:36,120 --> 00:01:42,280
Speaker 1: biased source whose information was immediately challenged by the intelligence company.

25
00:01:42,360 --> 00:01:45,759
Speaker 1: Despite that, they went ahead in impeach President Trump back

26
00:01:45,800 --> 00:01:48,480
Speaker 1: in twenty nineteen over Ukraine and Hunter Biden going to

27
00:01:48,560 --> 00:01:50,600
Speaker 1: cover that tomorrow night. Let me bring in my amazing cost.

28
00:01:50,880 --> 00:01:54,680
Speaker 1: Amanda had Amanda big moment for the White House. The

29
00:01:54,680 --> 00:01:57,320
Speaker 1: piece is holding, but a lot of work ahead, right.

30
00:01:58,080 --> 00:02:01,279
Speaker 2: Yeah, Well, as the President and the Secretary Caroline Levitt

31
00:02:01,280 --> 00:02:04,280
Speaker 2: have reminded everyone, you know, it's not like Iran is

32
00:02:04,360 --> 00:02:05,440
Speaker 2: an honest broker.

33
00:02:05,560 --> 00:02:08,440
Speaker 3: So this is, as you refer to it, very very tenuous.

34
00:02:08,480 --> 00:02:12,760
Speaker 2: But the media, John, there has been the media that

35
00:02:13,120 --> 00:02:15,480
Speaker 2: they have cited it seems like with Iran. And I'm

36
00:02:15,520 --> 00:02:17,359
Speaker 2: not going to say that they are anti American or

37
00:02:17,400 --> 00:02:20,680
Speaker 2: anything like that, but when you repeatedly believe the Iranian

38
00:02:20,720 --> 00:02:23,040
Speaker 2: regime over the president of the United States, I think

39
00:02:23,040 --> 00:02:26,639
Speaker 2: that it says something about biased coverage. But it's amazing

40
00:02:26,680 --> 00:02:29,520
Speaker 2: to me the metamorphosis that we have seen from you know,

41
00:02:29,600 --> 00:02:32,840
Speaker 2: President Trump was ostensibly in the hospital last week too,

42
00:02:32,880 --> 00:02:35,560
Speaker 2: he's a madman because he wants to turn Iran into glass.

43
00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:37,800
Speaker 2: And then he you know, last night, he's a coward

44
00:02:37,800 --> 00:02:41,000
Speaker 2: for backing down to them. And it's just this amazing,

45
00:02:42,440 --> 00:02:45,760
Speaker 2: as I said, this, this transition going to going through

46
00:02:45,760 --> 00:02:48,040
Speaker 2: each of these phases where it seems like they just

47
00:02:48,120 --> 00:02:50,080
Speaker 2: really can't make up their mind about it. But at

48
00:02:50,080 --> 00:02:51,840
Speaker 2: the end of the day, President Trump has had his

49
00:02:51,919 --> 00:02:54,560
Speaker 2: mind made up about this since before he even ran

50
00:02:54,600 --> 00:02:55,160
Speaker 2: for president.

51
00:02:55,160 --> 00:02:56,800
Speaker 3: And that's clear if you go back and look back.

52
00:02:56,680 --> 00:03:00,560
Speaker 1: At clips, Yeah, Jerry will be out. And whetherial media

53
00:03:00,600 --> 00:03:03,200
Speaker 1: is anti American, it clearly is anti truth. And that's

54
00:03:03,240 --> 00:03:07,000
Speaker 1: I think what we've seen. Iran's military has been decimated,

55
00:03:07,080 --> 00:03:10,200
Speaker 1: its industrial complex decimated. They don't want to admit that.

56
00:03:10,200 --> 00:03:12,840
Speaker 1: That's why through at this point of a pause, because

57
00:03:12,880 --> 00:03:15,240
Speaker 1: they have nothing to fire at us anymore. All Right,

58
00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:17,640
Speaker 1: we've got the perfect guess to kick off our show tonight.

59
00:03:18,200 --> 00:03:19,919
Speaker 1: All right, joining us now, somebody knows a fig or

60
00:03:19,919 --> 00:03:21,840
Speaker 1: two about the Middle East. He served in the CIA

61
00:03:21,840 --> 00:03:24,320
Speaker 1: as a CLANDI stand officer for a very long time. Today,

62
00:03:24,520 --> 00:03:26,280
Speaker 1: I think he's one of the most sage voices when

63
00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:30,040
Speaker 1: it comes to security around the world. He's a good friend.

64
00:03:30,200 --> 00:03:33,400
Speaker 1: Retired CIO officer Sam Fattis. Sam. Great to have you

65
00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:35,600
Speaker 1: back on the show. Great to be here.

66
00:03:35,640 --> 00:03:36,280
Speaker 4: Thanks guys.

67
00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:38,320
Speaker 1: I love the work you do on your sub stack,

68
00:03:38,360 --> 00:03:40,800
Speaker 1: and I think the reason is it's based in reality.

69
00:03:40,840 --> 00:03:43,760
Speaker 1: There's always happy talk when a tenuous deal like this

70
00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:46,160
Speaker 1: gets put together, but then there's a reality of getting

71
00:03:46,200 --> 00:03:50,160
Speaker 1: to some finality without it falling apart. Walk us through

72
00:03:50,240 --> 00:03:52,320
Speaker 1: where we are. He's been a bumpy day. Iran and

73
00:03:52,400 --> 00:03:54,480
Speaker 1: the United States seem to not have all the details

74
00:03:54,480 --> 00:03:58,160
Speaker 1: buttoned down. They're kind of working through it. Maybe, how

75
00:03:58,560 --> 00:04:01,200
Speaker 1: where are we in that process and how concerned should

76
00:04:01,200 --> 00:04:03,360
Speaker 1: we be that this could fall apart at some point.

77
00:04:05,160 --> 00:04:07,480
Speaker 5: Well, look, we have a ceasefire, and I think we

78
00:04:07,560 --> 00:04:09,800
Speaker 5: have an agreement that we're going to sit down Islamabad.

79
00:04:11,240 --> 00:04:14,080
Speaker 5: There have been some bumps, as you said, with apparently

80
00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:17,360
Speaker 5: some missiles and drones still flying back and forth. I'm

81
00:04:17,360 --> 00:04:20,200
Speaker 5: not super concerned about that because I think you're talking

82
00:04:20,200 --> 00:04:25,160
Speaker 5: about on the Iranian side, a very decentralized system at

83
00:04:25,160 --> 00:04:25,640
Speaker 5: this point.

84
00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:26,680
Speaker 4: So the fact that.

85
00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:32,080
Speaker 5: Not everybody's on the same sheet of music, not everybody

86
00:04:32,120 --> 00:04:36,039
Speaker 5: got the memo, yet not everybody necessarily is pulled in

87
00:04:36,080 --> 00:04:39,000
Speaker 5: the same direction. Okay, I think that sort of comes

88
00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:42,960
Speaker 5: with the territory. The bigger issue, from my perspective is

89
00:04:43,040 --> 00:04:47,640
Speaker 5: when we sit down in Islamabad, what are we negotiating?

90
00:04:47,720 --> 00:04:50,120
Speaker 5: I don't mean, I mean we're obviously trying to negotiate

91
00:04:50,960 --> 00:04:55,560
Speaker 5: an actual peace agreement, a permanent end to hostilities. But

92
00:04:55,800 --> 00:04:59,920
Speaker 5: what are we negotiating from in terms of a base?

93
00:05:00,600 --> 00:05:04,520
Speaker 5: The Iranians are being very clear that they are stating

94
00:05:04,680 --> 00:05:09,720
Speaker 5: very publicly that we are negotiating from their ten point

95
00:05:10,160 --> 00:05:14,320
Speaker 5: plan that they have trotted out, which from my perspective

96
00:05:14,440 --> 00:05:18,680
Speaker 5: is a non starter. Rights we remove all sanctions, the

97
00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:20,880
Speaker 5: UN revokes all its.

98
00:05:20,760 --> 00:05:22,520
Speaker 4: Resolutions, they get to keep the.

99
00:05:22,960 --> 00:05:26,440
Speaker 5: Nuclear program, We pull our forces out of the Middle East,

100
00:05:26,920 --> 00:05:30,800
Speaker 5: We promise never to attack them ever again. They control

101
00:05:30,839 --> 00:05:33,680
Speaker 5: the Straits of Hormuz, they keep charging two million dollars

102
00:05:33,720 --> 00:05:36,440
Speaker 5: a ship, et cetera, and so forth, So.

103
00:05:38,480 --> 00:05:42,920
Speaker 4: That I cannot imagine. Is I mean that right there?

104
00:05:42,960 --> 00:05:45,159
Speaker 5: Probably all of those terms are terms to which we

105
00:05:45,240 --> 00:05:48,560
Speaker 5: cannot we cannot agree right.

106
00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:50,920
Speaker 2: Well, And Sam, I know that the White House felt

107
00:05:50,960 --> 00:05:53,360
Speaker 2: the exact same way, because the Press Secretary today said

108
00:05:53,400 --> 00:05:55,719
Speaker 2: that they literally threw it in the trash.

109
00:05:55,760 --> 00:05:57,960
Speaker 3: And I know in any negotiation.

110
00:05:57,400 --> 00:06:00,400
Speaker 2: Even for a country like Iran, you start wayfer on

111
00:06:00,440 --> 00:06:02,560
Speaker 2: your own side than you know you're going to end up.

112
00:06:02,600 --> 00:06:04,240
Speaker 2: But as you said, I mean, this was a wishless

113
00:06:04,240 --> 00:06:09,040
Speaker 2: This was absolutely delusional to you. Does that show that

114
00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:13,359
Speaker 2: this entire process has not been serious and therefore, for

115
00:06:13,480 --> 00:06:17,520
Speaker 2: whatever this ceasefire can be effectively, that it's not serious either?

116
00:06:20,240 --> 00:06:20,440
Speaker 1: Right?

117
00:06:20,480 --> 00:06:22,440
Speaker 5: Well, I mean the way I would characterize their ten

118
00:06:22,480 --> 00:06:25,359
Speaker 5: point plan is it's a surrender document. But we're the

119
00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:27,800
Speaker 5: ones who are supposed to surrender to them, So yes,

120
00:06:27,920 --> 00:06:31,080
Speaker 5: non starter. Are they always going to push you too far?

121
00:06:31,240 --> 00:06:31,480
Speaker 1: Yes?

122
00:06:31,560 --> 00:06:33,200
Speaker 5: Are they always going to ask for the sun the

123
00:06:33,240 --> 00:06:37,560
Speaker 5: moon stars? Yes, these are smart guys and they're very aggressive,

124
00:06:37,600 --> 00:06:39,799
Speaker 5: and this is the Middle East and haggling is the deal.

125
00:06:40,320 --> 00:06:44,960
Speaker 5: Even for them, this is really really extreme. I mean,

126
00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:49,240
Speaker 5: I think I am afraid that what they're saying is

127
00:06:49,279 --> 00:06:53,080
Speaker 5: they don't think they're losing. They think we want the

128
00:06:53,200 --> 00:06:56,760
Speaker 5: piece more than they do. And as anybody knows, in

129
00:06:56,800 --> 00:07:04,200
Speaker 5: a negotiation, leverage is everthink. So again, even for them,

130
00:07:04,480 --> 00:07:05,400
Speaker 5: it's a tall order.

131
00:07:07,680 --> 00:07:10,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, Sam, I want to talk. I had an unusual

132
00:07:10,600 --> 00:07:13,360
Speaker 1: experience of negotiating with the Malas Back in two thousand

133
00:07:13,400 --> 00:07:16,320
Speaker 1: and nine, My reporter was taken when I was the

134
00:07:16,400 --> 00:07:18,680
Speaker 1: editor of the Washington Times, and it was such a

135
00:07:18,720 --> 00:07:23,080
Speaker 1: surreal experience because publicly they were saying, we're never going

136
00:07:23,160 --> 00:07:25,280
Speaker 1: to release his infidel, We're never going to do it.

137
00:07:25,360 --> 00:07:27,840
Speaker 1: He was a spy, he's going to be tried, and

138
00:07:27,880 --> 00:07:31,679
Speaker 1: behind the scenes they're actually negotiating. Is that a norm

139
00:07:31,800 --> 00:07:35,840
Speaker 1: for them and could it be that the propaganda's designed

140
00:07:35,840 --> 00:07:39,320
Speaker 1: to keep their reputation with their people intact, even though

141
00:07:39,320 --> 00:07:42,240
Speaker 1: they know that on the backside they've taken a pretty

142
00:07:42,280 --> 00:07:42,640
Speaker 1: big hit.

143
00:07:44,360 --> 00:07:47,520
Speaker 5: Well, it is without question this element that you just

144
00:07:47,600 --> 00:07:50,240
Speaker 5: touched on that a lot of what they're going to

145
00:07:50,320 --> 00:07:53,400
Speaker 5: say is going to be for domestic consumption or in

146
00:07:53,440 --> 00:07:55,920
Speaker 5: the rest of the region. That's a given. Yeah, I

147
00:07:55,960 --> 00:07:58,120
Speaker 5: mean they're going to talk smack and there's going to

148
00:07:58,160 --> 00:07:59,640
Speaker 5: be a lot of trash talk and then you get

149
00:07:59,640 --> 00:08:03,200
Speaker 5: behind closed doors. But you know what's they're going to

150
00:08:03,480 --> 00:08:06,560
Speaker 5: take you for as much as they can get yep, right,

151
00:08:06,640 --> 00:08:09,880
Speaker 5: I mean it's that is the nature of the beast

152
00:08:09,960 --> 00:08:13,880
Speaker 5: for them and the entire region. So what is critical

153
00:08:14,080 --> 00:08:18,360
Speaker 5: is that they understand that we are prepared to walk

154
00:08:18,400 --> 00:08:20,920
Speaker 5: away and go back to beating the hell out of them,

155
00:08:21,480 --> 00:08:23,760
Speaker 5: and I don't want that to happen, and I hope

156
00:08:23,800 --> 00:08:26,640
Speaker 5: that does not happen. But the second they feel like

157
00:08:26,720 --> 00:08:29,080
Speaker 5: we need to want the deal more than they do,

158
00:08:29,800 --> 00:08:32,960
Speaker 5: we're done. Obviously, that's a great point.

159
00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:34,680
Speaker 2: Well, and Sam, I think that one thing that could

160
00:08:34,720 --> 00:08:37,840
Speaker 2: be propelling them to that place where they delusionally think

161
00:08:37,840 --> 00:08:38,680
Speaker 2: that we want it more.

162
00:08:38,600 --> 00:08:40,240
Speaker 3: Than they And well, maybe it's not delusional. We do.

163
00:08:40,360 --> 00:08:41,080
Speaker 3: We do want peace.

164
00:08:41,120 --> 00:08:43,960
Speaker 2: That President Trump has spoken about that a lot. Is

165
00:08:44,000 --> 00:08:46,880
Speaker 2: their main bargaining chip, whether they realize it or not,

166
00:08:46,920 --> 00:08:49,120
Speaker 2: the Hormu straight because they no longer they don't have

167
00:08:49,200 --> 00:08:52,760
Speaker 2: military superiority. Is the Hormu straight? Is that their big,

168
00:08:53,000 --> 00:08:55,560
Speaker 2: biggest and best bargaining chip? And if so, how do

169
00:08:55,600 --> 00:08:56,240
Speaker 2: we eliminate it?

170
00:08:57,160 --> 00:08:59,319
Speaker 5: Well, look, the center of gravity of the whole conflict

171
00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:01,840
Speaker 5: is oil and thennatural gas, right, And it's not just

172
00:09:01,840 --> 00:09:05,000
Speaker 5: the straits of Hormuz, it's the production facilities in the

173
00:09:05,040 --> 00:09:08,800
Speaker 5: Gulf and in Saudi right. So you know our military

174
00:09:08,840 --> 00:09:12,400
Speaker 5: is beating up on them. Would they sink a carrier battle.

175
00:09:12,120 --> 00:09:13,000
Speaker 4: Group if they could?

176
00:09:13,240 --> 00:09:16,240
Speaker 5: Obviously, do they realistically think they have a chance against

177
00:09:16,280 --> 00:09:17,080
Speaker 5: the US military?

178
00:09:17,200 --> 00:09:17,360
Speaker 1: No?

179
00:09:18,080 --> 00:09:20,440
Speaker 4: But so we shoot it. We shoot at them, and

180
00:09:20,480 --> 00:09:23,800
Speaker 4: they shoot at Gutter, they shoot at Dubai, they shoot

181
00:09:23,840 --> 00:09:24,440
Speaker 4: at Saudi.

182
00:09:25,040 --> 00:09:28,200
Speaker 5: And it's not just keeping the straits closed, it's you know,

183
00:09:28,679 --> 00:09:31,880
Speaker 5: if we really get in, our backs are against the wall,

184
00:09:31,960 --> 00:09:36,520
Speaker 5: will just burn the whole place down, like permanently, We'll

185
00:09:36,520 --> 00:09:39,760
Speaker 5: burn it down. We'll send it so many drones that

186
00:09:40,320 --> 00:09:43,800
Speaker 5: Saudi won't pump a barrel of oil for five years,

187
00:09:44,880 --> 00:09:48,520
Speaker 5: and that you know, kind of a giant suicide vest

188
00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:53,160
Speaker 5: kind of mentality. That's that's their real, their real leverage.

189
00:09:53,280 --> 00:09:57,720
Speaker 5: And we will see whether they feel like we've hurt

190
00:09:57,720 --> 00:10:00,400
Speaker 5: them enough that they're going to make a deal or

191
00:10:00,480 --> 00:10:02,600
Speaker 5: if we're going to have to go back to fighting

192
00:10:02,720 --> 00:10:06,920
Speaker 5: and take away that leverage, take away their their capacity

193
00:10:06,960 --> 00:10:07,640
Speaker 5: to threaten that.

194
00:10:08,920 --> 00:10:11,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's really smart. Same, that's what I'm hearing from

195
00:10:11,120 --> 00:10:14,880
Speaker 1: the inside. That really is the concern. When we were

196
00:10:14,880 --> 00:10:17,160
Speaker 1: in the Cold War, we had detente because we had

197
00:10:17,200 --> 00:10:20,400
Speaker 1: something the other side feared enough. What is it? And

198
00:10:20,679 --> 00:10:22,679
Speaker 1: down Trump always wants to know what is his enemy

199
00:10:22,720 --> 00:10:24,360
Speaker 1: want most and what does he at least want to

200
00:10:24,400 --> 00:10:26,920
Speaker 1: have happened to them, and then negotiate between those two parameters.

201
00:10:28,120 --> 00:10:30,480
Speaker 1: What is it that Iran would fear more than anything

202
00:10:30,520 --> 00:10:31,800
Speaker 1: from us.

203
00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:35,479
Speaker 5: Look, I think if we could take away their capacity

204
00:10:35,520 --> 00:10:40,120
Speaker 5: to threaten other countries' oil and natural gas, and if

205
00:10:40,160 --> 00:10:45,360
Speaker 5: we could then cut off their capacity to sell oil,

206
00:10:45,840 --> 00:10:47,760
Speaker 5: which we can do anytime we want because we can

207
00:10:47,800 --> 00:10:52,480
Speaker 5: blockade them, that really puts them in the box from

208
00:10:52,480 --> 00:10:55,440
Speaker 5: which they cannot escape. First step in that is we

209
00:10:55,520 --> 00:10:57,920
Speaker 5: have to be able to protect oil and natural gas

210
00:10:58,640 --> 00:11:02,360
Speaker 5: in the Gulf and in Saudi Arabia. And we're you know,

211
00:11:02,679 --> 00:11:06,079
Speaker 5: shooting down ninety percent of the drones is great. If

212
00:11:06,160 --> 00:11:09,600
Speaker 5: ten percent of the drones still get through, that's too many, right.

213
00:11:10,559 --> 00:11:12,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, it still causes damage.

214
00:11:13,600 --> 00:11:15,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, Sam, before we let you go, I had I

215
00:11:16,080 --> 00:11:18,360
Speaker 2: was in another state and I had a friend who

216
00:11:18,400 --> 00:11:21,760
Speaker 2: asked me, you know, what more should the Iranian people

217
00:11:21,840 --> 00:11:25,200
Speaker 2: be doing to assist in the overthrow of their own country.

218
00:11:25,520 --> 00:11:27,600
Speaker 2: I know that they live in fear of this regime,

219
00:11:27,679 --> 00:11:30,280
Speaker 2: they have been forced to for the last forty seven years,

220
00:11:30,320 --> 00:11:32,439
Speaker 2: But is there anything they can do as far as

221
00:11:32,520 --> 00:11:35,160
Speaker 2: uprising to assist in the overthrow?

222
00:11:37,080 --> 00:11:39,400
Speaker 4: Is it possible for there to be an overthrow of

223
00:11:39,440 --> 00:11:41,440
Speaker 4: the regime? Yeah? Today?

224
00:11:41,679 --> 00:11:41,719
Speaker 6: No?

225
00:11:42,440 --> 00:11:44,680
Speaker 4: Are they organized enough, armed enough?

226
00:11:44,920 --> 00:11:45,000
Speaker 7: No?

227
00:11:45,720 --> 00:11:49,360
Speaker 5: I mean having participated in that kind of activity on

228
00:11:49,440 --> 00:11:54,120
Speaker 5: behalf of our government. The actual amount of infrastructure you've

229
00:11:54,120 --> 00:11:58,120
Speaker 5: got to build, the legwork you got to do, the support,

230
00:11:58,200 --> 00:12:01,240
Speaker 5: the training, the weapons. You know, it's not just ask

231
00:12:01,320 --> 00:12:04,520
Speaker 5: everybody to go out in the street tomorrow. It takes

232
00:12:04,600 --> 00:12:07,400
Speaker 5: a lot of work. They are not anywhere close to that.

233
00:12:07,640 --> 00:12:11,560
Speaker 5: The regime killed thirty thousand demonstrators recently. They'll kill three

234
00:12:11,600 --> 00:12:14,280
Speaker 5: hundred thousand in the street and not bad. And I

235
00:12:14,520 --> 00:12:17,679
Speaker 5: that's you're talking about, very very ruthless guys.

236
00:12:18,760 --> 00:12:22,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, very realistic. Sam. For everyone who's watching, you have

237
00:12:22,440 --> 00:12:24,680
Speaker 1: an incredible subsect. You do great work. What's the best

238
00:12:24,679 --> 00:12:26,480
Speaker 1: way for people to follow all your great work? I

239
00:12:26,520 --> 00:12:29,320
Speaker 1: think you're a must read person every day. What's the

240
00:12:29,320 --> 00:12:30,600
Speaker 1: best way for us to stay in touch with you?

241
00:12:31,280 --> 00:12:35,679
Speaker 5: Or A and magazine, an D magazine dot substack dot com.

242
00:12:35,760 --> 00:12:38,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, I highly suggest folks read it. Sam does some

243
00:12:38,720 --> 00:12:40,400
Speaker 1: of the best work on this issue, and he's been

244
00:12:40,480 --> 00:12:42,640
Speaker 1: right over the target on all of the key issues

245
00:12:42,960 --> 00:12:45,839
Speaker 1: surrounding this operation. Sarah, great honor to have you on

246
00:12:45,880 --> 00:12:49,280
Speaker 1: this show again. Thanks for joining us. Thanks, Yeah, what

247
00:12:49,360 --> 00:12:51,760
Speaker 1: a great conversation. All right, folks, when we come back,

248
00:12:51,800 --> 00:12:54,319
Speaker 1: you remember when those fifty one intelligence officers told you

249
00:12:54,360 --> 00:12:57,520
Speaker 1: don't believe one hundred Byton Loptop. You were supposed to

250
00:12:57,760 --> 00:13:00,160
Speaker 1: because it was true, but there was a a lot

251
00:13:00,160 --> 00:13:02,760
Speaker 1: of censorship that went around that. It's happening again, believe

252
00:13:02,800 --> 00:13:06,400
Speaker 1: it or not. The new movie coming out about the

253
00:13:06,480 --> 00:13:09,200
Speaker 1: hundred bind laptop and the whistleblowers. It's being censent on

254
00:13:09,200 --> 00:13:11,280
Speaker 1: social media. We're going to cover that next year. You're

255
00:13:11,280 --> 00:13:12,920
Speaker 1: going to be mad when you watch the next segment,

256
00:13:12,960 --> 00:13:15,080
Speaker 1: but better to be informal. Have that next right after

257
00:13:15,160 --> 00:13:25,200
Speaker 1: these messages. Hey, folks, I want to take a minute

258
00:13:25,200 --> 00:13:28,160
Speaker 1: to talk about something that affects almost every single person

259
00:13:28,200 --> 00:13:30,640
Speaker 1: watching the show, Medicare. And I'll be honest with you.

260
00:13:30,720 --> 00:13:33,800
Speaker 1: Medicare is confusing, Part A, Part B, Part C, Part D,

261
00:13:33,880 --> 00:13:37,719
Speaker 1: advantage plans, supplements. It's amaze right, and I don't think

262
00:13:37,760 --> 00:13:41,640
Speaker 1: that's an accident. Washington doesn't make things simple. Simple means

263
00:13:41,679 --> 00:13:44,160
Speaker 1: you're in control, and they don't want that. That's exactly

264
00:13:44,200 --> 00:13:46,440
Speaker 1: why I want to tell you about AMAC, the Association

265
00:13:46,920 --> 00:13:50,640
Speaker 1: of Mature American Citizens over two million members strong, myself included.

266
00:13:50,960 --> 00:13:54,120
Speaker 1: They're the conservative alternative to AARP. They fight for the

267
00:13:54,200 --> 00:13:58,000
Speaker 1: values we talk about on this program every day, limited government,

268
00:13:58,040 --> 00:14:02,040
Speaker 1: personal freedom, fiscal responsible and here's what makes them different.

269
00:14:02,400 --> 00:14:05,840
Speaker 1: On medicare, AMAC has license advisors who will get on

270
00:14:05,920 --> 00:14:08,360
Speaker 1: the phone with you, walk you through every option and

271
00:14:08,480 --> 00:14:10,680
Speaker 1: help you find the plan that actually fits your life.

272
00:14:10,760 --> 00:14:14,000
Speaker 1: Real simple, no pressure, no sales pitch, just straight answers

273
00:14:14,040 --> 00:14:17,240
Speaker 1: from people who share your values. So go to AMAC

274
00:14:17,280 --> 00:14:21,160
Speaker 1: dot us, slash smart or call eight hundred nine zero

275
00:14:21,240 --> 00:14:24,040
Speaker 1: one eight eight nine three. It's free. You've earned the

276
00:14:24,120 --> 00:14:27,040
Speaker 1: right to get this decision right. Let AMAC help you

277
00:14:27,080 --> 00:14:27,360
Speaker 1: do it.

278
00:14:38,080 --> 00:14:42,840
Speaker 8: We chuse unity of her division, we use signs over fission,

279
00:14:43,800 --> 00:14:46,960
Speaker 8: and yes, we choose shoot over live.

280
00:14:50,000 --> 00:14:52,960
Speaker 9: Ra Biden is providing millions of dollars for the benefit

281
00:14:53,040 --> 00:14:55,880
Speaker 9: of the Biden family through an influence pedaling scheme.

282
00:14:56,160 --> 00:14:58,880
Speaker 1: My name's Gary Shapley. I'm a supervisor.

283
00:14:58,360 --> 00:15:02,520
Speaker 9: Special Agent of the International Tax and Plannership Creditors. Hunter

284
00:15:02,560 --> 00:15:06,360
Speaker 9: Biden's laptop was a smoking gun. It connected Joe Biden

285
00:15:06,760 --> 00:15:08,479
Speaker 9: to Hunter Biden's businesses.

286
00:15:10,480 --> 00:15:12,560
Speaker 1: All right, folks, you know how often I talk about

287
00:15:12,600 --> 00:15:15,040
Speaker 1: the importance of whistleblowers on the show. In forty years

288
00:15:15,040 --> 00:15:18,080
Speaker 1: of reporting, whistleblowers have changed the world more than once.

289
00:15:18,120 --> 00:15:20,480
Speaker 1: What you just saw was part of the trailer for

290
00:15:20,560 --> 00:15:23,880
Speaker 1: the new documentary Shielded by Power, which is a story

291
00:15:23,920 --> 00:15:26,680
Speaker 1: about two of the most courageous whistleblowers I've ever met.

292
00:15:26,760 --> 00:15:29,560
Speaker 1: It tells the inside story of the Hunter Biden tax

293
00:15:29,600 --> 00:15:33,600
Speaker 1: investigation through the voices of Gary Shapley and his fellow

294
00:15:33,600 --> 00:15:38,160
Speaker 1: workers who were whistleblowers who risked everything to expose that scandal.

295
00:15:38,400 --> 00:15:40,200
Speaker 1: Joining us now to talk about it. Two of the

296
00:15:40,200 --> 00:15:44,000
Speaker 1: men behind that documentary, Empower Oversight President Tristan Levitt and

297
00:15:44,120 --> 00:15:47,440
Speaker 1: Chris Dodge, the founder of Ruistion Predictions, who's helping make

298
00:15:47,440 --> 00:15:49,720
Speaker 1: that movie. Tristan, Chris, great to have you on the show.

299
00:15:51,440 --> 00:15:53,120
Speaker 10: Well, thanks for having us, John appreciate it.

300
00:15:54,320 --> 00:15:56,680
Speaker 1: All right, We all know on a trip down memory

301
00:15:56,720 --> 00:15:59,480
Speaker 1: lane that the Hunter Biden's story started with a lot

302
00:15:59,560 --> 00:16:03,920
Speaker 1: of censorship. My reporting in twenty nineteen, censored in part

303
00:16:04,000 --> 00:16:06,560
Speaker 1: by the work of the whistleblower who tried to fake

304
00:16:06,560 --> 00:16:09,440
Speaker 1: whistlebler who tried to suggest that the Hunter Biden story

305
00:16:09,480 --> 00:16:12,600
Speaker 1: wasn't true. Then Miranda's work, Branda Devine's work on the

306
00:16:12,680 --> 00:16:15,840
Speaker 1: laptop censored again back in the twenty twenty election. You

307
00:16:15,920 --> 00:16:18,560
Speaker 1: guys are trying to get this movie out, and if

308
00:16:18,600 --> 00:16:20,880
Speaker 1: I understand, Tristan, you run into a little bit of

309
00:16:20,880 --> 00:16:24,600
Speaker 1: censorship on social media all over again. That's right.

310
00:16:24,680 --> 00:16:28,240
Speaker 11: So this is a film that is mostly completed in

311
00:16:28,360 --> 00:16:30,560
Speaker 11: terms of the interviews, but there is a campaign that

312
00:16:30,600 --> 00:16:33,240
Speaker 11: we launched several weeks ago to raise the money to

313
00:16:33,280 --> 00:16:37,080
Speaker 11: finish the production of the film, which Chris Dodge has

314
00:16:37,120 --> 00:16:40,440
Speaker 11: been leading out on, and to do that, we need

315
00:16:40,480 --> 00:16:42,120
Speaker 11: to run ads, right, we need to get the message

316
00:16:42,120 --> 00:16:43,840
Speaker 11: out to people that this is a documentary that we

317
00:16:43,880 --> 00:16:46,600
Speaker 11: want to finish. And so we've gone through all the hoops,

318
00:16:46,640 --> 00:16:48,720
Speaker 11: jumped through all the things that have been required of

319
00:16:48,760 --> 00:16:53,600
Speaker 11: us by X by Meta, which has both Facebook and Instagram,

320
00:16:53,960 --> 00:16:57,720
Speaker 11: and even by Google, and repeatedly our ads campaigns have

321
00:16:57,760 --> 00:17:00,480
Speaker 11: been shut down. No ads have been run. The same

322
00:17:00,720 --> 00:17:03,880
Speaker 11: entities that suppressed the Biden story when the laptop first

323
00:17:03,880 --> 00:17:06,480
Speaker 11: came out seemed determined that we not run any ads

324
00:17:06,520 --> 00:17:07,440
Speaker 11: on their platforms.

325
00:17:09,040 --> 00:17:12,119
Speaker 1: It's just unbelievable, Chris, this is an incredible movie. The

326
00:17:12,160 --> 00:17:15,280
Speaker 1: facts are no longer in debt. Back in twenty nineteen,

327
00:17:15,640 --> 00:17:17,600
Speaker 1: if you believe that Hunter Biden and Joe Biden did

328
00:17:17,640 --> 00:17:20,560
Speaker 1: something wrong, you recalled a conspiracy theorist. If you believe

329
00:17:20,600 --> 00:17:22,960
Speaker 1: the laptop was real. You were told you're a Russian

330
00:17:23,000 --> 00:17:26,920
Speaker 1: disinformation artist. Everything in this movie is now documented by

331
00:17:26,960 --> 00:17:30,399
Speaker 1: evidence in the courts, in the Congress, through reporters like

332
00:17:30,400 --> 00:17:33,720
Speaker 1: myself and Miranda and others, and yet there's a resistance

333
00:17:33,720 --> 00:17:36,879
Speaker 1: to it. Where does that resistance come from?

334
00:17:37,280 --> 00:17:39,320
Speaker 10: You know, I'm not sure, John. I spent the last

335
00:17:39,440 --> 00:17:42,320
Speaker 10: year really trying to get this film out to the

336
00:17:42,359 --> 00:17:47,400
Speaker 10: traditional distribution systems, the traditional Hollywood system. You see lots

337
00:17:47,440 --> 00:17:52,120
Speaker 10: of incredible documentaries on social issues in places like Netflix

338
00:17:52,160 --> 00:17:55,320
Speaker 10: and HBO, and all of the middlemen in Hollywood say, oh,

339
00:17:55,359 --> 00:17:59,600
Speaker 10: we're not interested in a social issues a social issues documentary.

340
00:18:00,240 --> 00:18:04,640
Speaker 10: And I find that to be challenging because we've had

341
00:18:04,640 --> 00:18:08,119
Speaker 10: so many incredible stories out there about things like Epstein

342
00:18:08,320 --> 00:18:12,159
Speaker 10: and p Diddy and all these other, you know, scandals,

343
00:18:12,200 --> 00:18:14,720
Speaker 10: and yet we can't get this story out there that

344
00:18:14,840 --> 00:18:17,200
Speaker 10: was suppressed in the media and the twenty twenty election cycle.

345
00:18:18,480 --> 00:18:22,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, it is remarkable, Chris. Let me stay with you

346
00:18:22,080 --> 00:18:25,359
Speaker 1: for a second. You got to meet all the players

347
00:18:25,920 --> 00:18:28,280
Speaker 1: in this drama. You got to chronicle all of the

348
00:18:28,320 --> 00:18:32,840
Speaker 1: resistance that they faced, all of the pressure. What's the

349
00:18:32,880 --> 00:18:34,879
Speaker 1: most surprising thing when people are going to watch this

350
00:18:34,960 --> 00:18:38,119
Speaker 1: movie and it will get out. It's so important. What

351
00:18:38,200 --> 00:18:40,040
Speaker 1: will be one of the most surprising things that most

352
00:18:40,080 --> 00:18:41,800
Speaker 1: Americans will wake up to when they read it.

353
00:18:43,119 --> 00:18:47,359
Speaker 10: I think really actually understanding how the quote unquote deep

354
00:18:47,359 --> 00:18:51,280
Speaker 10: state actually functions. This is a documentation on how the

355
00:18:51,320 --> 00:18:55,679
Speaker 10: Department of Justice actually stopped a criminal investigation on the

356
00:18:55,680 --> 00:18:56,200
Speaker 10: parts of.

357
00:18:56,160 --> 00:18:57,520
Speaker 1: Gary and Joe.

358
00:18:57,920 --> 00:19:01,760
Speaker 10: And they were doing their job as i US investigators

359
00:19:01,880 --> 00:19:05,040
Speaker 10: and agents, and they were stopped at every single way

360
00:19:05,080 --> 00:19:07,320
Speaker 10: that they could be stopped, they were stopped. And to

361
00:19:07,400 --> 00:19:10,560
Speaker 10: make it worse, I think we actually look at the

362
00:19:10,920 --> 00:19:14,960
Speaker 10: documentation and the first hand accounts from gentlemen like yourself

363
00:19:15,240 --> 00:19:19,640
Speaker 10: and Matt Tayibi, Miranda Devine, Mike Ben's incredible journalists who

364
00:19:19,800 --> 00:19:23,440
Speaker 10: show that the FBI had the back door access to

365
00:19:23,720 --> 00:19:26,639
Speaker 10: suppress the story. And I think that that suppression is

366
00:19:26,680 --> 00:19:29,639
Speaker 10: still a danger to Americans today, and we need to

367
00:19:29,720 --> 00:19:32,440
Speaker 10: get out there and actually pay attention to the fact

368
00:19:32,440 --> 00:19:34,440
Speaker 10: that our media channels are not free. We do not

369
00:19:34,560 --> 00:19:37,240
Speaker 10: have a free and open press, and I'm thankful for

370
00:19:37,320 --> 00:19:39,200
Speaker 10: programs like yours to try to get out there and

371
00:19:39,480 --> 00:19:42,960
Speaker 10: actually make a difference telling the stories that are actually

372
00:19:43,040 --> 00:19:43,880
Speaker 10: happening out there.

373
00:19:45,240 --> 00:19:47,439
Speaker 1: Yeah, and that suppression is real. I think a lot

374
00:19:47,440 --> 00:19:49,480
Speaker 1: of people thought, well, we elected Donald Trump in twenty

375
00:19:49,520 --> 00:19:52,240
Speaker 1: twenty four, the government's no longer doing it. But there

376
00:19:52,240 --> 00:19:55,359
Speaker 1: are so many secret hands in the media world, in

377
00:19:55,400 --> 00:19:58,200
Speaker 1: the social media world, the big tech world that still

378
00:19:58,240 --> 00:20:03,000
Speaker 1: can suppress something. Tristan, you sent a letter to members

379
00:20:03,000 --> 00:20:05,920
Speaker 1: of Congress in the last few days chronicling the concerns

380
00:20:05,920 --> 00:20:08,720
Speaker 1: of what you experienced when you tried to advertise and

381
00:20:09,040 --> 00:20:12,040
Speaker 1: promote this movie. What's been the response from Congress? Will

382
00:20:12,040 --> 00:20:13,040
Speaker 1: Congress dig into this?

383
00:20:14,680 --> 00:20:17,280
Speaker 11: We have been in communication with a couple of different offices.

384
00:20:17,320 --> 00:20:20,480
Speaker 11: We do hope that they will dig in. It's difficult because,

385
00:20:20,880 --> 00:20:23,159
Speaker 11: you know, on the one hand, again, this is a

386
00:20:23,200 --> 00:20:27,880
Speaker 11: private project, right Unlike before, we were kind of helping

387
00:20:27,920 --> 00:20:32,200
Speaker 11: the whistleblowers to expose to Congress the things that they saw. Here,

388
00:20:32,000 --> 00:20:34,280
Speaker 11: we're trying to tell the story. So I think generally

389
00:20:34,560 --> 00:20:37,399
Speaker 11: Congress doesn't try to wade into private projects like this,

390
00:20:37,560 --> 00:20:39,680
Speaker 11: But this is an instance where again some of the

391
00:20:39,720 --> 00:20:43,320
Speaker 11: same players, like you know, Mark Zuckerberg came to Congress

392
00:20:43,359 --> 00:20:45,920
Speaker 11: after the suppression of the Hunter Biden laptop story and said,

393
00:20:46,040 --> 00:20:48,040
Speaker 11: this is totally our fault. You know, we should not

394
00:20:48,080 --> 00:20:49,760
Speaker 11: have done that, we won't do it again, and so

395
00:20:50,200 --> 00:20:53,880
Speaker 11: again to be stuck in this Kafka esque series of

396
00:20:54,600 --> 00:20:58,840
Speaker 11: maneuvers from Facebook where they tell you you're approved, then

397
00:20:58,840 --> 00:21:01,560
Speaker 11: you're not approved. One point, they took our social media

398
00:21:01,560 --> 00:21:05,160
Speaker 11: ad manager, who's a very experienced person that we contracted

399
00:21:05,160 --> 00:21:07,280
Speaker 11: with for this project. He's worked in Hollywood for quite

400
00:21:07,320 --> 00:21:10,679
Speaker 11: some time, but he is a conservative. His entire account

401
00:21:10,760 --> 00:21:13,480
Speaker 11: was suspended when we first listed this, and so, you know,

402
00:21:13,480 --> 00:21:15,760
Speaker 11: on the one hand, Facebook and say, well, you just

403
00:21:15,760 --> 00:21:17,680
Speaker 11: need to do X, Y or Z, but it seems

404
00:21:17,760 --> 00:21:19,680
Speaker 11: very clear to us that there's this pattern that we

405
00:21:19,760 --> 00:21:22,520
Speaker 11: keep getting suspended on these platforms just because this is

406
00:21:22,560 --> 00:21:25,080
Speaker 11: the project we're advertising, the same trailer you showed a

407
00:21:25,080 --> 00:21:29,040
Speaker 11: portion of. That's what we've submitted, and their unwillingness to

408
00:21:29,080 --> 00:21:30,960
Speaker 11: show it. We think it's important for Congress to know

409
00:21:31,000 --> 00:21:33,240
Speaker 11: that some things seem to have not change despite what

410
00:21:33,840 --> 00:21:36,320
Speaker 11: these big social media companies are claiming to Congress.

411
00:21:38,000 --> 00:21:43,200
Speaker 1: So interesting you for years represented and protected whistleblowers in Congress.

412
00:21:43,240 --> 00:21:46,040
Speaker 1: You work with Center Grausei staff. I think he's the

413
00:21:46,800 --> 00:21:50,359
Speaker 1: godfather of the modern whistle blower movement in America. So

414
00:21:50,400 --> 00:21:52,600
Speaker 1: many big things have run through his office over the

415
00:21:52,720 --> 00:21:57,440
Speaker 1: last forty years. Chris, you make movies. I don't think

416
00:21:57,480 --> 00:22:01,240
Speaker 1: you could find two more extraordinary characters, both as whistleblowers

417
00:22:01,320 --> 00:22:05,080
Speaker 1: or as storytellers in a documentary than these two guys.

418
00:22:05,760 --> 00:22:08,080
Speaker 1: Joe Ziegler is a Democrat. He's going up against his

419
00:22:08,080 --> 00:22:10,560
Speaker 1: own parties machines because he knows it's the right thing

420
00:22:10,600 --> 00:22:14,679
Speaker 1: to do. Gary Shapley is one of the most accomplished

421
00:22:14,720 --> 00:22:18,240
Speaker 1: IRS agents in the recent history of the IRS, and

422
00:22:18,280 --> 00:22:20,440
Speaker 1: he can't get anything off the ground because people don't

423
00:22:20,440 --> 00:22:23,680
Speaker 1: want this case. How does this story from a Hollywood

424
00:22:23,720 --> 00:22:27,600
Speaker 1: perspective ring? I mean, the truth is it's all non fiction,

425
00:22:28,000 --> 00:22:29,880
Speaker 1: but it has characters that would make even a fiction

426
00:22:30,000 --> 00:22:31,120
Speaker 1: movie pretty exciting.

427
00:22:32,520 --> 00:22:34,800
Speaker 10: I think the story is absolutely incredible, John, I mean

428
00:22:34,800 --> 00:22:37,000
Speaker 10: when you look at all of the things these guys

429
00:22:37,040 --> 00:22:39,400
Speaker 10: went through for five years they worked on this case

430
00:22:39,440 --> 00:22:42,680
Speaker 10: before they were thrown off, before they came forward in Congress,

431
00:22:42,920 --> 00:22:46,040
Speaker 10: and then even the cast of characters that extends beyond that,

432
00:22:46,240 --> 00:22:50,760
Speaker 10: with House Chairman Jason Smith and Jim Jordan and James

433
00:22:50,840 --> 00:22:54,119
Speaker 10: Comer that helped these guys have the forum the platform

434
00:22:54,160 --> 00:22:57,040
Speaker 10: to actually speak about these things. Senator Juck Grassley, for

435
00:22:57,119 --> 00:23:00,639
Speaker 10: fighting the FBI for transparency. And when you are digging

436
00:23:01,040 --> 00:23:03,320
Speaker 10: through all of this, there's been so many books written

437
00:23:03,359 --> 00:23:06,679
Speaker 10: on this topic and you dig down into the weeds,

438
00:23:06,720 --> 00:23:09,280
Speaker 10: it is incredible the level of detail that you find

439
00:23:09,800 --> 00:23:13,280
Speaker 10: that all of these departments are working together to cover

440
00:23:13,400 --> 00:23:16,960
Speaker 10: up is an obvious crime. What is an obvious embezzlement

441
00:23:17,080 --> 00:23:21,720
Speaker 10: of American money and this first family basically taking advantage

442
00:23:21,760 --> 00:23:24,399
Speaker 10: of the executive branch, and so much was done to

443
00:23:24,480 --> 00:23:26,880
Speaker 10: cover that up. And so we're just trying to tell

444
00:23:26,920 --> 00:23:29,960
Speaker 10: the definitive story about what is fact and really try

445
00:23:30,000 --> 00:23:32,159
Speaker 10: to get that out there because it's important that we

446
00:23:32,200 --> 00:23:34,199
Speaker 10: put a capstone on this and say, look, this is

447
00:23:34,600 --> 00:23:36,840
Speaker 10: the history of this. Let's not let this go by

448
00:23:37,359 --> 00:23:40,359
Speaker 10: and not allow American people to understand.

449
00:23:40,400 --> 00:23:41,560
Speaker 1: I think viewers of your.

450
00:23:41,480 --> 00:23:43,600
Speaker 10: Program know this very well because if you're reporting, but

451
00:23:43,640 --> 00:23:46,320
Speaker 10: there's still a big majority out there and allowed people

452
00:23:46,359 --> 00:23:49,680
Speaker 10: love watching video content and documentaries, and that's our goal

453
00:23:49,720 --> 00:23:50,800
Speaker 10: is to get that story out there.

454
00:23:51,600 --> 00:23:56,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, we know everything that occurred from impeachment forward on

455
00:23:56,720 --> 00:23:59,400
Speaker 1: the Biden family. Soon, I think we're going to learn

456
00:23:59,760 --> 00:24:02,840
Speaker 1: what happened in the intelligence community that led to the

457
00:24:02,920 --> 00:24:05,320
Speaker 1: Ukraine impeachment of twenty nineteen. It's probably going to be

458
00:24:05,680 --> 00:24:07,800
Speaker 1: another chilling story that we're all going to be scratching

459
00:24:07,800 --> 00:24:10,040
Speaker 1: ahead about when we get that evidence. But folks, in

460
00:24:10,080 --> 00:24:14,080
Speaker 1: the meantime, get ready for this incredible documentary. Hey, if

461
00:24:14,119 --> 00:24:16,800
Speaker 1: you've got a Facebook account, send a note to Facebook

462
00:24:16,880 --> 00:24:19,080
Speaker 1: Support and saying I don't like what's going on with

463
00:24:19,160 --> 00:24:22,720
Speaker 1: the ads involving Shielded by Power. Let free speech rain

464
00:24:22,800 --> 00:24:25,240
Speaker 1: on Facebook. Go tell them that today, Fellas, when do

465
00:24:25,280 --> 00:24:26,960
Speaker 1: you expect this movie to be in the marketplace?

466
00:24:27,640 --> 00:24:29,119
Speaker 11: It we can get people to go to Shielded by

467
00:24:29,160 --> 00:24:31,480
Speaker 11: Power if we can complete this movie, that's what we need.

468
00:24:31,560 --> 00:24:32,840
Speaker 1: So if we can get.

469
00:24:32,640 --> 00:24:34,399
Speaker 11: The support there of people going that, we hope to

470
00:24:34,400 --> 00:24:35,720
Speaker 11: have it done by August.

471
00:24:36,640 --> 00:24:39,840
Speaker 1: I love it. Folks, go make a donation, Go make this.

472
00:24:39,840 --> 00:24:42,440
Speaker 1: This is a crowd source opportunity to get the truth

473
00:24:42,440 --> 00:24:44,760
Speaker 1: through a lot of people who might still not really

474
00:24:44,800 --> 00:24:48,440
Speaker 1: know what happened shield by Power. Incredible, incredible movie. Gentlemen,

475
00:24:48,680 --> 00:24:50,919
Speaker 1: Thank you so much for the work you're doing and

476
00:24:50,960 --> 00:24:53,640
Speaker 1: what you're going to deliver to the American people. Great

477
00:24:53,680 --> 00:24:57,960
Speaker 1: to have you on the show tonight. All right, folks,

478
00:24:58,040 --> 00:25:07,359
Speaker 1: quick commercial break. More around the corner the messages, Hey, Folcus.

479
00:25:07,400 --> 00:25:10,040
Speaker 1: This episode is brought to you by Native Path grass

480
00:25:10,040 --> 00:25:13,840
Speaker 1: fed Collagen for better bones, joined skin here and nails.

481
00:25:14,000 --> 00:25:17,480
Speaker 1: Here's something that generalinly surprise me. Calcium supplements, the ones

482
00:25:17,560 --> 00:25:20,080
Speaker 1: millions of people take from bone elf may not be

483
00:25:20,119 --> 00:25:22,960
Speaker 1: doing much at all because bones are ninety percent collagen,

484
00:25:23,400 --> 00:25:27,120
Speaker 1: not calcium. Without the collagen, scaffold too attached to calcium

485
00:25:27,119 --> 00:25:30,120
Speaker 1: has nowhere to go. That's where today's sponsor comes in.

486
00:25:30,160 --> 00:25:33,120
Speaker 1: After thirty our bodies produce one to two percent less

487
00:25:33,119 --> 00:25:36,560
Speaker 1: collagen every single year. That's the protein that keeps our

488
00:25:36,600 --> 00:25:39,360
Speaker 1: bones dense, our joints, cushion, and of course our skin firm.

489
00:25:39,400 --> 00:25:42,440
Speaker 1: By age sixteen, like me, most people have lost half

490
00:25:42,480 --> 00:25:45,240
Speaker 1: their collagen and it's nearly impossible to get it back

491
00:25:45,280 --> 00:25:47,800
Speaker 1: through diet alone because it lives in the parts of

492
00:25:47,800 --> 00:25:50,680
Speaker 1: the animal. We don't eat the bones, the cartilage, the tendons.

493
00:25:51,000 --> 00:25:54,000
Speaker 1: Native Path grass fed collagen is a clean grass fed

494
00:25:54,040 --> 00:25:57,439
Speaker 1: type one in three collagen that dissolves completely in coffee

495
00:25:57,520 --> 00:26:00,760
Speaker 1: or water, no taste, no clumping. Thousands of customers report

496
00:26:01,080 --> 00:26:04,200
Speaker 1: let's joint pain, stronger nails, kinder looking skin, better sleep,

497
00:26:04,560 --> 00:26:07,720
Speaker 1: and even improve bone density. Scans. The tried risk free

498
00:26:07,760 --> 00:26:10,560
Speaker 1: with a three hundred and sixty five day money back guarantee.

499
00:26:10,600 --> 00:26:14,080
Speaker 1: Had to get natapath dot com slash just news. That's

500
00:26:14,160 --> 00:26:17,600
Speaker 1: get natopath dot com slash just news.

501
00:26:28,160 --> 00:26:29,280
Speaker 3: Welcome back, everybody.

502
00:26:29,320 --> 00:26:32,240
Speaker 2: The fallout from yesterday's announce seeshire with Iran is still

503
00:26:32,280 --> 00:26:34,520
Speaker 2: coming in, and there's been a lot of talk about

504
00:26:34,520 --> 00:26:37,879
Speaker 2: what a potential peace deal could actually look like, with

505
00:26:38,040 --> 00:26:42,439
Speaker 2: Iranian and American plans seemingly looking very, very different. And

506
00:26:42,480 --> 00:26:45,879
Speaker 2: this is all being negotiated under the backdrop of military pressure,

507
00:26:45,960 --> 00:26:48,200
Speaker 2: because whenever it can be said about the war, we

508
00:26:48,280 --> 00:26:52,080
Speaker 2: can definitively say that American military might has absolutely crushed

509
00:26:52,320 --> 00:26:55,720
Speaker 2: the Iranians conventional forces. So what does it mean going

510
00:26:55,800 --> 00:26:59,120
Speaker 2: forward and how can the Trump administration continue to put

511
00:26:59,160 --> 00:27:02,840
Speaker 2: pressure on a potentially fractured Iranian regime. Joining us now

512
00:27:02,880 --> 00:27:05,320
Speaker 2: to talk about this and more as someone who's got

513
00:27:05,320 --> 00:27:08,000
Speaker 2: a lot of insight into it, he's former Special Assistant

514
00:27:08,000 --> 00:27:10,640
Speaker 2: in the Office of the Secretary of Defense and currently

515
00:27:10,680 --> 00:27:14,480
Speaker 2: the Dean of Academics at the Institute of World of Politics,

516
00:27:14,520 --> 00:27:17,320
Speaker 2: Doctor James Robbins, Sir, thank you so much for being with.

517
00:27:17,359 --> 00:27:19,840
Speaker 12: Us, Hi Amanda, thanks for having me.

518
00:27:21,119 --> 00:27:21,960
Speaker 3: Thank you so much.

519
00:27:22,000 --> 00:27:25,399
Speaker 2: All right, this it's going to be prickly for sure,

520
00:27:25,520 --> 00:27:28,719
Speaker 2: this two week ceasefire. It sounds like there have already

521
00:27:28,720 --> 00:27:31,480
Speaker 2: been some rogue things flying back and forth, but of

522
00:27:31,480 --> 00:27:34,120
Speaker 2: course it's the initial hours of that, so that's possibly

523
00:27:34,160 --> 00:27:37,000
Speaker 2: to be expected. Do you anticipate the two weeks from

524
00:27:37,040 --> 00:27:38,640
Speaker 2: now we will be saying, well, that went.

525
00:27:38,480 --> 00:27:43,360
Speaker 12: Well, Well it isn't even really going well two hours

526
00:27:43,400 --> 00:27:45,679
Speaker 12: into it. I think people have to look at the

527
00:27:46,320 --> 00:27:50,119
Speaker 12: Israeli Hamas negotiations and how that worked, where you'd have

528
00:27:50,160 --> 00:27:52,480
Speaker 12: a ceasefire and then it would be broken, and then

529
00:27:52,560 --> 00:27:55,719
Speaker 12: there'd be more negotiation and maybe there'd be another ceasefire,

530
00:27:55,800 --> 00:27:59,600
Speaker 12: and it was very non linear. So if people think

531
00:27:59,600 --> 00:28:02,040
Speaker 12: that you can just declare a ceasefire with Iran and

532
00:28:02,080 --> 00:28:05,000
Speaker 12: it will stick, or they won't add conditions, or they

533
00:28:05,000 --> 00:28:07,560
Speaker 12: won't say well it didn't apply to Israel or some

534
00:28:07,720 --> 00:28:10,919
Speaker 12: other thing like that, no, that's not how it works.

535
00:28:10,960 --> 00:28:14,000
Speaker 12: So hopefully the ceasefire will hold. But we'll have to

536
00:28:14,040 --> 00:28:14,560
Speaker 12: wait and see.

537
00:28:16,040 --> 00:28:18,960
Speaker 2: James, what does it say about their efforts to actually

538
00:28:19,000 --> 00:28:22,719
Speaker 2: come to an agreement and I guess their view on

539
00:28:22,760 --> 00:28:25,320
Speaker 2: this conflict overall, the fact that they came forward with

540
00:28:25,359 --> 00:28:29,520
Speaker 2: these ten points that, according to Press Secretary of Caroline Levitt,

541
00:28:29,520 --> 00:28:32,600
Speaker 2: literally went straight into the trash bin because it was

542
00:28:32,720 --> 00:28:36,560
Speaker 2: just such a ridiculous pie in the sky wish list

543
00:28:36,560 --> 00:28:39,960
Speaker 2: from Iran, What does it say about their good faith efforts?

544
00:28:41,520 --> 00:28:45,200
Speaker 12: Well, the Iranians are very good at negotiating. They come

545
00:28:45,320 --> 00:28:48,600
Speaker 12: up with these ten points that are basically their wish list.

546
00:28:49,040 --> 00:28:51,600
Speaker 12: They're all non starters, but they all reflect the things

547
00:28:51,600 --> 00:28:54,360
Speaker 12: that they were demanding even before the war started. They're

548
00:28:54,400 --> 00:28:57,240
Speaker 12: treating it almost as though the war didn't happen, and

549
00:28:57,280 --> 00:29:00,720
Speaker 12: that the destruction of their government and scream leader and

550
00:29:00,760 --> 00:29:03,680
Speaker 12: things like that, they're not even recognizing it. They're just

551
00:29:03,720 --> 00:29:06,840
Speaker 12: going along like they're winning. And in fact they declare

552
00:29:06,960 --> 00:29:09,400
Speaker 12: that the United States is lost, that the fact that

553
00:29:09,440 --> 00:29:12,640
Speaker 12: there's a ceasefire proves it, and that they will go

554
00:29:12,760 --> 00:29:15,760
Speaker 12: forward with that. And again it's the same with Hamas.

555
00:29:15,800 --> 00:29:19,800
Speaker 12: It's exactly the same strategy because they know that whereas

556
00:29:19,920 --> 00:29:23,200
Speaker 12: on the military battlefield they are definitely at a disadvantage

557
00:29:23,280 --> 00:29:26,200
Speaker 12: when it comes to negotiating, they see themselves as being

558
00:29:26,440 --> 00:29:29,920
Speaker 12: better than us, that they have an advantage. So they're

559
00:29:29,920 --> 00:29:32,920
Speaker 12: going to milk this diplomatic process for everything it's worth

560
00:29:33,400 --> 00:29:35,920
Speaker 12: and our negotiators are going to have to be willing

561
00:29:35,960 --> 00:29:38,360
Speaker 12: to just walk away from this process at some point

562
00:29:38,760 --> 00:29:41,920
Speaker 12: because Iran is going to stick to its maximalist demands

563
00:29:42,320 --> 00:29:43,920
Speaker 12: and they're not going to give an inch on what

564
00:29:43,960 --> 00:29:46,080
Speaker 12: we want from them.

565
00:29:46,520 --> 00:29:50,800
Speaker 2: What is their strategic bargaining chip because they militarily, they

566
00:29:50,840 --> 00:29:54,440
Speaker 2: obviously have been crushed by our military. They've ticked off

567
00:29:54,480 --> 00:29:56,760
Speaker 2: pretty much all of their neighbors. Is it just the

568
00:29:56,800 --> 00:29:57,720
Speaker 2: Straits of Hormuz?

569
00:29:59,400 --> 00:29:59,960
Speaker 1: Yes, I think.

570
00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:02,640
Speaker 12: I think that they look at the economic chaos that

571
00:30:02,680 --> 00:30:05,440
Speaker 12: they tried to generate, which, by the way, they were

572
00:30:05,440 --> 00:30:08,280
Speaker 12: saying oil was going to go to two hundred of barrelka.

573
00:30:08,520 --> 00:30:11,640
Speaker 12: It only went to one hundred and twenty at the worst,

574
00:30:12,120 --> 00:30:14,440
Speaker 12: which by the way, was about where it was under

575
00:30:14,480 --> 00:30:18,320
Speaker 12: Barack Obama even without a war. But they see the

576
00:30:18,440 --> 00:30:21,400
Speaker 12: chaos and the political pressure and the energy markets and

577
00:30:21,960 --> 00:30:24,240
Speaker 12: other things that were the result of their attacks on

578
00:30:24,280 --> 00:30:28,400
Speaker 12: their neighbors and closing the straits as being successful. The

579
00:30:28,440 --> 00:30:30,720
Speaker 12: fact that we went to a ceasefire they see that

580
00:30:30,840 --> 00:30:34,640
Speaker 12: as being a direct result of that. So that's what

581
00:30:34,720 --> 00:30:37,280
Speaker 12: they see as their leverage that if the war goes

582
00:30:37,360 --> 00:30:39,400
Speaker 12: back on, that they can go back to run that

583
00:30:39,440 --> 00:30:42,640
Speaker 12: same playbook and they don't have the same effects. So

584
00:30:42,720 --> 00:30:45,800
Speaker 12: the United States has to be aware that the Iranians

585
00:30:45,840 --> 00:30:49,719
Speaker 12: seemed to be willing to let the ceasefire collapse. I mean,

586
00:30:49,760 --> 00:30:53,120
Speaker 12: they didn't actually cease fire. They kept firing at Israel

587
00:30:53,160 --> 00:30:56,440
Speaker 12: and kept firing at their neighbors, which they now say

588
00:30:56,520 --> 00:30:59,120
Speaker 12: should be part of the deal that the Warren Lebanon

589
00:30:59,160 --> 00:30:59,760
Speaker 12: has to stop.

590
00:31:00,040 --> 00:31:00,320
Speaker 1: Again.

591
00:31:00,400 --> 00:31:04,760
Speaker 12: They're just you know, increasing their demands. So that's what's

592
00:31:04,800 --> 00:31:07,800
Speaker 12: going on. If our negotiators think it's just a linear

593
00:31:07,840 --> 00:31:11,760
Speaker 12: playbook where we're actually trying to find a solution or

594
00:31:11,800 --> 00:31:14,680
Speaker 12: a compromise, that's not how the Iranians are treating it.

595
00:31:16,760 --> 00:31:20,560
Speaker 2: When President Trump retook office last January, it wasn't even

596
00:31:20,600 --> 00:31:21,760
Speaker 2: a day one priority.

597
00:31:21,800 --> 00:31:23,440
Speaker 3: It was an hour one priority.

598
00:31:23,440 --> 00:31:27,360
Speaker 2: Practically, President Trump unleashing American energy production. We are now

599
00:31:27,400 --> 00:31:30,120
Speaker 2: at a place where, as President Trump articulated last week

600
00:31:30,120 --> 00:31:33,400
Speaker 2: in his addresses to the nation, we don't necessarily need

601
00:31:33,480 --> 00:31:35,760
Speaker 2: a lot of what is going through the straits of hormusin.

602
00:31:35,840 --> 00:31:38,800
Speaker 2: President Trump said, therefore, it's up to those countries that

603
00:31:38,880 --> 00:31:42,000
Speaker 2: are reliant on those products that go through the straits

604
00:31:42,040 --> 00:31:45,920
Speaker 2: to secure it. It seems to me that there's one

605
00:31:46,000 --> 00:31:50,400
Speaker 2: country out there who President Trump indirectly was making a

606
00:31:50,480 --> 00:31:53,720
Speaker 2: clear and open negotiation to, and that was China, because

607
00:31:53,800 --> 00:31:56,000
Speaker 2: China needs the straits to be open. Did it come

608
00:31:56,000 --> 00:31:57,480
Speaker 2: across to you like that? Do you think that that

609
00:31:57,560 --> 00:31:59,120
Speaker 2: was a message message to China?

610
00:32:01,160 --> 00:32:01,480
Speaker 1: Yes?

611
00:32:01,600 --> 00:32:04,280
Speaker 12: And it's interesting that the Chinese were the ones who

612
00:32:04,280 --> 00:32:07,320
Speaker 12: were trying to pressure the Iranians to go to the ceasefire,

613
00:32:07,600 --> 00:32:10,560
Speaker 12: and that Iran had been critical of the straight closure

614
00:32:10,600 --> 00:32:12,040
Speaker 12: strategy from the beginning.

615
00:32:12,680 --> 00:32:13,600
Speaker 1: I don't know if.

616
00:32:13,440 --> 00:32:16,600
Speaker 12: We want to see Iran taking up a mission of

617
00:32:16,640 --> 00:32:20,880
Speaker 12: securing any kind of straits with their navy, Because the

618
00:32:20,920 --> 00:32:23,560
Speaker 12: Iranians are building up their navy and they're looking for

619
00:32:23,600 --> 00:32:26,960
Speaker 12: a global presence and to kind of suggests that maybe

620
00:32:26,960 --> 00:32:29,400
Speaker 12: this is good for them, I don't know that that

621
00:32:29,440 --> 00:32:31,600
Speaker 12: would be the kind of mission we would like to see.

622
00:32:32,000 --> 00:32:34,680
Speaker 12: And particularly when you talk about straits, I mean the

623
00:32:34,720 --> 00:32:37,760
Speaker 12: Strait of Taiwan is the strait that the Chinese are

624
00:32:37,800 --> 00:32:40,959
Speaker 12: most interested in, and the US has always maintained that

625
00:32:40,960 --> 00:32:43,520
Speaker 12: we have freedom of navigation through that strait, just as

626
00:32:43,560 --> 00:32:46,080
Speaker 12: we have freedom of navigation through the Strait of Hormuz.

627
00:32:46,760 --> 00:32:50,000
Speaker 12: So standing on the principle of that of maintaining that

628
00:32:50,120 --> 00:32:53,200
Speaker 12: navigational freedom. I think is a lot more important to

629
00:32:53,280 --> 00:32:55,640
Speaker 12: say that China should play a role in securing the

630
00:32:55,720 --> 00:32:59,640
Speaker 12: Straight well, so long as it's a non military role. Maybe,

631
00:32:59,640 --> 00:33:01,600
Speaker 12: but I I really don't think we want to see

632
00:33:01,680 --> 00:33:04,080
Speaker 12: Chinese navy patrolling the Persian Gulf.

633
00:33:05,400 --> 00:33:08,440
Speaker 3: I think that is exactly right. I want to ask you.

634
00:33:08,360 --> 00:33:11,960
Speaker 2: You know, President Trump has a remarkably warm relationship with

635
00:33:12,040 --> 00:33:17,160
Speaker 2: NATO Secretary General Mark Ruda, even though leaving NATO is

636
00:33:17,200 --> 00:33:20,040
Speaker 2: something that President Trump has talked about since before he

637
00:33:20,120 --> 00:33:23,560
Speaker 2: was an even president in his first term. So amid

638
00:33:23,640 --> 00:33:26,200
Speaker 2: all of these negotiations, there has been an appeal from

639
00:33:26,240 --> 00:33:30,280
Speaker 2: President Trump to NATO member nations to assist us in

640
00:33:30,360 --> 00:33:35,480
Speaker 2: securing the Straits, assisting us in this conflict in general,

641
00:33:35,800 --> 00:33:39,480
Speaker 2: and yet it has been for the most part closed doors.

642
00:33:39,880 --> 00:33:43,160
Speaker 2: Does that surprise you and do you anticipate that this

643
00:33:43,200 --> 00:33:46,080
Speaker 2: could move President Trump into a position where he can

644
00:33:46,640 --> 00:33:49,400
Speaker 2: justifiably say, fine, we're out.

645
00:33:50,040 --> 00:33:53,400
Speaker 12: Well, the Europeans certainly did not read the room, that

646
00:33:53,520 --> 00:33:56,520
Speaker 12: is clear. It is one thing to say on a

647
00:33:56,560 --> 00:34:00,720
Speaker 12: technical side that like, this wasn't a NATO mission because

648
00:34:00,800 --> 00:34:03,960
Speaker 12: NATO wasn't attacked, or NATO wasn't involved, but by the way,

649
00:34:04,120 --> 00:34:07,200
Speaker 12: Turkey was attacked, and Turkey is a NATO member, But

650
00:34:07,360 --> 00:34:11,440
Speaker 12: put that aside. To say things like you can't use bases,

651
00:34:11,520 --> 00:34:14,560
Speaker 12: you can't have overfly rights. It's one thing to say

652
00:34:14,600 --> 00:34:17,200
Speaker 12: you will not send military forces to an out of

653
00:34:17,239 --> 00:34:20,359
Speaker 12: area engagement. Okay, that's fine, it's not a NATO thing,

654
00:34:20,400 --> 00:34:24,160
Speaker 12: and we get that. But to actively impede the United

655
00:34:24,200 --> 00:34:28,560
Speaker 12: States in conducting this mission, that is absurd. I mean,

656
00:34:28,600 --> 00:34:31,839
Speaker 12: that's really where the Europeans crossed the line. And now

657
00:34:31,880 --> 00:34:34,400
Speaker 12: they're kind of backtracking and saying, you know, well, we

658
00:34:34,400 --> 00:34:37,560
Speaker 12: didn't mean that or whatever they're saying, but they really

659
00:34:37,600 --> 00:34:40,560
Speaker 12: gave an opening to the people on the Republican side

660
00:34:40,600 --> 00:34:44,360
Speaker 12: who were against NATO to say, look, this alliance is

661
00:34:44,400 --> 00:34:45,359
Speaker 12: worthless to us.

662
00:34:45,440 --> 00:34:48,640
Speaker 2: If they're doctor Robinson's so sorry, we've got it. We've

663
00:34:48,640 --> 00:34:50,000
Speaker 2: got to cut you off, but we're going to get

664
00:34:50,000 --> 00:34:52,920
Speaker 2: you back on very soon. It's such an important, important topic.

665
00:34:53,120 --> 00:34:55,000
Speaker 2: Thank you so much. Everybody will wear it back.

666
00:35:01,920 --> 00:35:04,600
Speaker 1: Hey, America. The FBI has been warning about a type

667
00:35:04,600 --> 00:35:07,600

Speaker 1: fake notary stamp and fill them with the county, and

671
00:35:15,840 --> 00:35:19,040
Speaker 1: just like that, boom, they're on record as owning your

672
00:35:19,040 --> 00:35:22,400
Speaker 1: home using your ownership. They then take out loans against

673
00:35:22,440 --> 00:35:24,600
Speaker 1: your equator, even sell your property and you're not going

674
00:35:24,680 --> 00:35:27,120
Speaker 1: to know about it to get a foreclosure or collection

675
00:35:27,239 --> 00:35:28,799
Speaker 1: notice in the mail. That's not going to be a

676

691
00:36:19,640 --> 00:36:22,520
Speaker 2: Reports show that major head funds are struggling to meet

Speaker 2: you do about it? Joining us now to discuss this

695
00:36:30,920 --> 00:36:34,520
Speaker 2: and more is the CEO of American Alternative Assets, Shannon Davis.

696
00:36:34,520 --> 00:36:36,719
Speaker 3: Shannon, thanks for coming back on. Good to see you.

697
00:36:37,560 --> 00:36:39,960
Speaker 6: Good to see you, Amanda and John. Always the pleasure

698
00:36:40,040 --> 00:36:40,520
Speaker 6: being with you.

699
00:36:40,840 --> 00:36:41,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, I love having you.

700
00:36:41,960 --> 00:36:44,359
Speaker 2: Likewise, you know, this is something that you have been

701
00:36:44,400 --> 00:36:47,600
Speaker 2: warning about for a while. Obviously we don't know how

702
00:36:47,600 --> 00:36:49,480
Speaker 2: it will pan out this time. But that's kind of

703
00:36:49,480 --> 00:36:51,480
Speaker 2: the scariest part about it is the unknowns.

704
00:36:52,520 --> 00:36:55,279
Speaker 6: Yeah, the uncertainty. We were just chatting about it before

705
00:36:55,360 --> 00:36:57,600
Speaker 6: jumping on. Is that's the only thing I'm certain about,

706
00:36:57,719 --> 00:37:02,520
Speaker 6: is the uncertainty. Yeah, Amanda, John, this is what Wall

707
00:37:02,560 --> 00:37:06,239
Speaker 6: Street doesn't want us talking about. You know, when investors

708
00:37:06,280 --> 00:37:09,480
Speaker 6: try and pull their money out of these funds, We're

709
00:37:09,520 --> 00:37:13,000
Speaker 6: talking billions of dollars. They're being told they can't, or

710
00:37:13,040 --> 00:37:16,879
Speaker 6: they're being restricted, they're capping the amount that they can

711
00:37:16,920 --> 00:37:20,480
Speaker 6: give out. You know, this isn't two thousand and eight

712
00:37:20,480 --> 00:37:25,239
Speaker 6: all over again. It's something different. These institutions took retirement

713
00:37:25,320 --> 00:37:29,839
Speaker 6: accounts like four oh one k's pension funds and put

714
00:37:29,880 --> 00:37:34,600
Speaker 6: them into ill liquid, high risk positions. Now when people

715
00:37:34,760 --> 00:37:37,280
Speaker 6: need their money back, they're being told that they can't

716
00:37:37,320 --> 00:37:42,120
Speaker 6: get it. The door is locked. And I'm talking Morgan, Stanley, Goldman, Sachs,

717
00:37:42,200 --> 00:37:46,560
Speaker 6: Wells Fargo. They're all tied up in private credit funds,

718
00:37:46,840 --> 00:37:51,600
Speaker 6: real estate funds, equity funds. They can't unwind them and

719
00:37:51,640 --> 00:37:54,080
Speaker 6: they would take massive losses if they would. So you

720
00:37:54,080 --> 00:37:57,560
Speaker 6: know it's going to affect retirees. Don't be don't be

721
00:37:58,320 --> 00:38:01,920
Speaker 6: like faked out with these headlines when the market jumps

722
00:38:02,840 --> 00:38:04,960
Speaker 6: that that's something that people really need to pay attention to,

723
00:38:05,040 --> 00:38:06,720
Speaker 6: you guys, it's scary stuff for sure.

724
00:38:07,120 --> 00:38:09,879
Speaker 1: Yeah, Shannon, I've been watching this Blackrock. I think set

725
00:38:09,880 --> 00:38:12,400
Speaker 1: off red alarms when they said they're managing risk and

726
00:38:12,440 --> 00:38:14,839
Speaker 1: then people say what risk? And they answer is big risk?

727
00:38:16,239 --> 00:38:19,200
Speaker 1: What what are the driving forces that have made the

728
00:38:19,239 --> 00:38:22,120
Speaker 1: head funds more I liquid? And how big is the

729
00:38:22,120 --> 00:38:28,120
Speaker 1: commercial real estate pressure right now? And adding to that challenge.

730
00:38:28,280 --> 00:38:30,239
Speaker 6: Yeah, that's a great question with the real estate on

731
00:38:30,280 --> 00:38:32,279
Speaker 6: the commercial end and we'll talk a little bit about

732
00:38:32,320 --> 00:38:36,480
Speaker 6: that for sure. But you know, with with the with Blackstone,

733
00:38:36,800 --> 00:38:40,480
Speaker 6: black Rock, you know, they're they don't have the cash.

734
00:38:40,600 --> 00:38:45,000
Speaker 6: You know, these these firms promised liquid assets or access

735
00:38:45,040 --> 00:38:48,160
Speaker 6: to their money, but they don't have it. They've invested

736
00:38:48,760 --> 00:38:53,200
Speaker 6: into real estate, right, commercial real estate that is imploding

737
00:38:53,600 --> 00:38:58,640
Speaker 6: private equities, AI, AI startups, structured products. You know, right

738
00:38:58,680 --> 00:39:03,920
Speaker 6: now one out of five major metropolitan areas that the

739
00:39:04,040 --> 00:39:08,520
Speaker 6: buildings are sitting empty. So the system right now, it's

740
00:39:08,560 --> 00:39:13,200
Speaker 6: freezing up retail investors and retirees everyday Americans. They're trapped

741
00:39:13,239 --> 00:39:16,520
Speaker 6: in some of these funds. And again, John, they're being

742
00:39:16,560 --> 00:39:19,240
Speaker 6: told that they can't have it, and so yeah, it's

743
00:39:19,280 --> 00:39:21,439
Speaker 6: an IOU basically, it's what they're being told.

744
00:39:21,600 --> 00:39:22,320
Speaker 1: John and Amanda.

745
00:39:23,400 --> 00:39:25,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean that I owe you, you know, robbing

746
00:39:25,560 --> 00:39:29,280
Speaker 2: Peter to pay Paul. What happens on a granular level

747
00:39:29,320 --> 00:39:32,560
Speaker 2: for our viewers, for people who have investments through some

748
00:39:32,600 --> 00:39:35,919
Speaker 2: of these major firms like Blackrock, what should they do

749
00:39:36,120 --> 00:39:37,640
Speaker 2: to keep from being affected by it?

750
00:39:39,080 --> 00:39:39,279
Speaker 1: Yeah?

751
00:39:39,280 --> 00:39:43,319
Speaker 6: Well, I mean history is very clear. Every time the

752
00:39:43,360 --> 00:39:45,879
Speaker 6: financial system gets stretched. I mean we can go back

753
00:39:45,880 --> 00:39:48,640
Speaker 6: to nineteen seventy one when Nixon closed the gold window

754
00:39:49,239 --> 00:39:53,439
Speaker 6: two thousand, two thousand and eight, twenty fifteen, twenty twenty two.

755
00:39:54,200 --> 00:40:00,359
Speaker 6: It's it's called diversify your assets into something tangible and

756
00:40:00,360 --> 00:40:04,360
Speaker 6: and that's why, you know, gold has held its value

757
00:40:04,520 --> 00:40:07,680
Speaker 6: for a very very long time, and they just need

758
00:40:07,719 --> 00:40:12,040
Speaker 6: to be They need to prepare and not be reactive,

759
00:40:12,120 --> 00:40:16,440
Speaker 6: be proactive and diversify into something outside paper assets and

760
00:40:16,520 --> 00:40:18,959
Speaker 6: the dollar that is struggling right now.

761
00:40:19,600 --> 00:40:22,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, Sean, I want to talk a little bit about

762
00:40:22,360 --> 00:40:26,120
Speaker 1: the pressures that any war action, any military action like

763
00:40:26,200 --> 00:40:29,200
Speaker 1: extended time like we have an Iran right now, always

764
00:40:29,200 --> 00:40:32,560
Speaker 1: has a chance because you're printing money to drive up inflation.

765
00:40:32,600 --> 00:40:35,120
Speaker 1: There's some early warning signs that the path that the

766
00:40:35,160 --> 00:40:37,400
Speaker 1: Fed was on, which was getting towards cutting rates and

767
00:40:37,400 --> 00:40:40,000
Speaker 1: they cut a few times down, might be stopped for

768
00:40:40,040 --> 00:40:42,880
Speaker 1: a while because of that inflationary pressure. How does that

769
00:40:42,920 --> 00:40:46,080
Speaker 1: factor into this bigger picture with the hedge funds having

770
00:40:46,080 --> 00:40:50,400
Speaker 1: some liquidity issues and just general uncertainty in the financial markets.

771
00:40:51,960 --> 00:40:56,279
Speaker 6: Yeah, it's it's huge. Inflation has always been sticky, I

772
00:40:56,280 --> 00:41:00,279
Speaker 6: think that's the word that they use, sticky. But yeah,

773
00:41:00,280 --> 00:41:02,719
Speaker 6: things are getting more expensive. We'll never go back to

774
00:41:02,800 --> 00:41:06,319
Speaker 6: you know, pre COVID. You know, pricing. I think you

775
00:41:06,360 --> 00:41:10,040
Speaker 6: know in today's times, our dollar bill just does not

776
00:41:10,160 --> 00:41:14,000
Speaker 6: buy what it used to buy, and they're not. I

777
00:41:14,000 --> 00:41:16,360
Speaker 6: feel like they haven't moved on the interest rates in

778
00:41:16,480 --> 00:41:19,719
Speaker 6: quite some time. It's they they've drawn a line in

779
00:41:19,760 --> 00:41:24,240
Speaker 6: the sand, and it's affecting people's purchasing power, it's eroding

780
00:41:24,280 --> 00:41:28,200
Speaker 6: their savings. And this is why gold and silver is

781
00:41:28,360 --> 00:41:32,839
Speaker 6: always inverse to that relationship and why it always does well. Yep,

782
00:41:32,920 --> 00:41:35,560
Speaker 6: we've had some corrections here, but it's because of what's

783
00:41:35,600 --> 00:41:37,400
Speaker 6: going on in the Middle East and we've got a

784
00:41:37,480 --> 00:41:41,919
Speaker 6: huge energy crisis and these Asian countries are liquidating their

785
00:41:41,960 --> 00:41:46,040
Speaker 6: gold to pay for the energy needs that they have.

786
00:41:46,800 --> 00:41:49,160
Speaker 6: If they didn't have the gold to liquidate, they'd be

787
00:41:49,239 --> 00:41:52,640
Speaker 6: in trouble right now. So that's how powerful on a

788
00:41:52,680 --> 00:41:56,960
Speaker 6: global scale gold is. But interest rates, we're gonna have

789
00:41:57,000 --> 00:41:59,280
Speaker 6: to hold on for at least another thirty to forty

790
00:41:59,280 --> 00:42:02,400
Speaker 6: five days and ntil that seat changes, because we're not

791
00:42:02,440 --> 00:42:04,000
Speaker 6: going to see a change there, and it's going to

792
00:42:04,040 --> 00:42:11,439
Speaker 6: continue to squeeze individuals dollars from both ends, for sure.

793
00:42:13,400 --> 00:42:13,720
Speaker 3: Shannon.

794
00:42:13,800 --> 00:42:16,480
Speaker 2: I know you guys provide a very, very wide range

795
00:42:16,600 --> 00:42:18,320
Speaker 2: of products and assets.

796
00:42:18,600 --> 00:42:19,319
Speaker 3: Do you have a.

797
00:42:19,280 --> 00:42:23,239
Speaker 2: Preference of physical gold versus something in an ira? Do

798
00:42:23,280 --> 00:42:25,040
Speaker 2: you think one is better than the other when it

799
00:42:25,040 --> 00:42:26,400
Speaker 2: comes to security.

800
00:42:28,040 --> 00:42:33,440
Speaker 6: Now, it really depends on what the strategy is that

801
00:42:33,520 --> 00:42:36,839
Speaker 6: we're able to break down with any of our customers,

802
00:42:37,080 --> 00:42:41,280
Speaker 6: right if they're sixty five, seventy five, eighty five, whatever

803
00:42:41,320 --> 00:42:43,359
Speaker 6: their age is, it really just depends on what they're

804
00:42:43,400 --> 00:42:48,080
Speaker 6: looking to do. Platinum you can put into your retirement account.

805
00:42:49,040 --> 00:42:52,200
Speaker 6: Palladium you can put into your retirement account. There's a

806
00:42:52,320 --> 00:42:54,959
Speaker 6: huge demand for it and very little supply, so that's

807
00:42:55,000 --> 00:42:59,200
Speaker 6: always going to drive up the value. Silver obviously that

808
00:42:59,239 --> 00:43:03,120
Speaker 6: it's a call opportunity to buy again. And gold is

809
00:43:03,160 --> 00:43:07,319
Speaker 6: always going to be your just your stable go to. Now,

810
00:43:07,360 --> 00:43:11,120
Speaker 6: Gold's job isn't to pay two percent or four percent.

811
00:43:11,200 --> 00:43:13,960
Speaker 6: Its job is to be there when everything else isn't.

812
00:43:14,400 --> 00:43:18,560
Speaker 6: When banks close, when Blackstone or black Rock tell you

813
00:43:18,640 --> 00:43:22,279
Speaker 6: they can't, they won't send you the redemption payments. That's

814
00:43:22,280 --> 00:43:25,400
Speaker 6: why you want to have that type of asset in

815
00:43:25,440 --> 00:43:28,640
Speaker 6: your retirement account. And there's nothing more liquid than than

816
00:43:28,640 --> 00:43:32,440
Speaker 6: gold and silver, platinum and palladium. I was just explaining

817
00:43:32,440 --> 00:43:36,520
Speaker 6: to you, like Global League countries are funding their energy

818
00:43:36,600 --> 00:43:38,040
Speaker 6: needs with Gold.

819
00:43:38,400 --> 00:43:40,680
Speaker 1: It's powerful, stunning.

820
00:43:41,520 --> 00:43:45,240

00:44:29,520 --> 00:44:48,360
Speaker 7: the other side.

844
00:44:51,800 --> 00:44:54,440
Speaker 2: Welcome back to the final segment. John, I know you

845
00:44:54,480 --> 00:44:57,920
Speaker 2: have probably seen these comments from service members on social media,

846
00:44:57,960 --> 00:45:00,640
Speaker 2: but also service members who I've spoken to in person.

847
00:45:00,719 --> 00:45:03,719
Speaker 2: The comparison between former Chairmen of the Joint Chiefs of

848
00:45:03,719 --> 00:45:07,520
Speaker 2: Staff Mark Milly to now General Dan Kane, and their

849
00:45:07,560 --> 00:45:11,880
Speaker 2: ethos really going from a place where dei and wokeness

850
00:45:11,960 --> 00:45:14,919
Speaker 2: was valued and now to a place where military preparedness

851
00:45:15,760 --> 00:45:18,600
Speaker 2: and that fighting spirit has been restored. So, guys, I

852
00:45:18,640 --> 00:45:21,480
Speaker 2: just want to play SAT too, because we have Chairman

853
00:45:21,560 --> 00:45:24,359
Speaker 2: Dan Kane discussing what the seaesfire means.

854
00:45:24,400 --> 00:45:25,279
Speaker 3: Check it out.

855
00:45:25,440 --> 00:45:30,040
Speaker 8: Every factory that produced Shahed one way attack drones was struck.

856
00:45:30,160 --> 00:45:34,000
Speaker 8: Every factory that produces the guidance systems that go into

857
00:45:34,040 --> 00:45:38,600
Speaker 8: those drones was struck. Their missile defense industrial base is shattered,

858
00:45:38,640 --> 00:45:41,840
Speaker 8: with more than eighty percent of their missile facilities gone,

859
00:45:42,080 --> 00:45:46,680
Speaker 8: as well as their solid rocket motor production capability. It

860
00:45:46,719 --> 00:45:50,960
Speaker 8: will take years for Iran to rebuild any major surface combatants,

861
00:45:51,360 --> 00:45:55,440
Speaker 8: as more than twenty naval production and fabrication facilities have

862
00:45:55,560 --> 00:45:59,600
Speaker 8: been damaged or destroyed, and nearly eighty percent of Around's

863
00:45:59,640 --> 00:46:04,279
Speaker 8: nuclear industrial base was hit, further degrading their attempts to

864
00:46:04,400 --> 00:46:06,200
Speaker 8: attain a nuclear weapon.

865
00:46:08,520 --> 00:46:11,560
Speaker 2: John, as you and our audience just saw moments of sobriety,

866
00:46:11,600 --> 00:46:14,359
Speaker 2: they're laying out exactly what has happened the goals that

867
00:46:14,400 --> 00:46:16,200
Speaker 2: have been achieved. But there was also a moment of

868
00:46:16,280 --> 00:46:20,120
Speaker 2: levity earlier when he was talking about what was required

869
00:46:20,840 --> 00:46:24,040
Speaker 2: in the practical world for our troops, talking about copious

870
00:46:24,040 --> 00:46:27,480
Speaker 2: amounts of caffeine, energy drinks and nicotine. He said, I

871
00:46:27,480 --> 00:46:31,600
Speaker 2: think we might have a problem, but this, yeah, there

872
00:46:31,640 --> 00:46:32,880
Speaker 2: is definitely not a problem.

873
00:46:33,160 --> 00:46:37,600
Speaker 1: Listen, this war was phased in with really great precision.

874
00:46:37,800 --> 00:46:40,839
Speaker 1: Phase one, take out their air defenses, then take out

875
00:46:40,840 --> 00:46:44,879
Speaker 1: their navy, then take out their air force, then take

876
00:46:44,880 --> 00:46:48,880
Speaker 1: out their missile ranges, then go after the industrial military

877
00:46:48,920 --> 00:46:52,200
Speaker 1: complex so that they couldn't rebuild and resupplied. And the

878
00:46:52,280 --> 00:46:55,520
Speaker 1: impact of this is not just on Iran. Russia can't

879
00:46:55,560 --> 00:46:58,799
Speaker 1: count on iron anymore to make all those drones that

880
00:46:58,840 --> 00:47:01,839
Speaker 1: they were using against you. That's going to hamper and

881
00:47:01,880 --> 00:47:05,640
Speaker 1: potentially bring putin to a different negotiating position very quickly.

882
00:47:05,719 --> 00:47:11,760
Speaker 1: So this is a three dimensional victory not only against Iran,

883
00:47:12,239 --> 00:47:15,439
Speaker 1: but Russia, particularly in China in some degrees because they're

884
00:47:15,600 --> 00:47:18,440
Speaker 1: suffering right now without the oil from Iran. So a

885
00:47:18,600 --> 00:47:22,440
Speaker 1: very interesting assessment by dan Kin. And you're right, you

886
00:47:22,440 --> 00:47:23,920
Speaker 1: can tell we're under a new sheriff.

887
00:47:25,040 --> 00:47:26,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, And speaking Ukraine, I want to get to your

888
00:47:27,040 --> 00:47:29,200
Speaker 2: tea's in just a moment, because you've got some explosive

889
00:47:29,280 --> 00:47:31,680
Speaker 2: documents and information that you're going to roll out tomorrow.

890
00:47:31,719 --> 00:47:34,160
Speaker 2: But as an non sequitor, I want to throw out

891
00:47:34,160 --> 00:47:38,800
Speaker 2: this clip of Democrat Representative Roekan talking about President Trump

892
00:47:38,840 --> 00:47:40,960
Speaker 2: and whether he should remain in office. This is what

893
00:47:41,000 --> 00:47:42,560
Speaker 2: we're hearing from a lot of Democrats right now.

894
00:47:42,640 --> 00:47:43,040
Speaker 1: Check it out.

895
00:47:43,520 --> 00:47:46,320
Speaker 13: You were one of the members of Congress that was

896
00:47:46,360 --> 00:47:50,360
Speaker 13: out there today calling to invoke the twenty fifth Amendment.

897
00:47:50,000 --> 00:47:51,359
Speaker 1: Of the United States.

898
00:47:51,920 --> 00:47:54,680
Speaker 13: Walk me through how you would see that working this cabinet,

899
00:47:54,719 --> 00:47:57,960
Speaker 13: this Trump cabinet, which would be required, including the Vice president,

900
00:47:57,960 --> 00:48:01,640
Speaker 13: which would be required to invoke the twenty fifth Amendment.

901
00:48:01,719 --> 00:48:05,440
Speaker 13: They are not exactly profiles and courage to will and

902
00:48:05,480 --> 00:48:07,319
Speaker 13: shown a willingness to stand up to Donald Trump.

903
00:48:07,480 --> 00:48:09,640
Speaker 4: Yet we need to remove this president.

904
00:48:09,880 --> 00:48:13,000
Speaker 5: We need to use all options, whether it's impeachment, whether

905
00:48:13,040 --> 00:48:15,600
Speaker 5: it's the twenty fifth Amendment.

906
00:48:16,640 --> 00:48:17,200
Speaker 3: Impeachment.

907
00:48:17,280 --> 00:48:19,560
Speaker 2: You say, well, John, I know that that pertains to

908
00:48:19,640 --> 00:48:21,000
Speaker 2: the documents you have for tomorrow.

909
00:48:21,080 --> 00:48:21,759
Speaker 3: Tell us about it.

910
00:48:21,960 --> 00:48:24,520
Speaker 1: Yeah. So we've always said on this show that Russia

911
00:48:24,560 --> 00:48:27,640
Speaker 1: and Ukraine scandals were tied together. That was the theme

912
00:48:27,680 --> 00:48:29,440
Speaker 1: of my book in twenty twenty. We are going to

913
00:48:29,480 --> 00:48:33,040
Speaker 1: deliver some bombshell new proof tomorrow night. It's going to

914
00:48:33,120 --> 00:48:37,240
Speaker 1: show exactly what the intelligence community knew about the officer

915
00:48:37,320 --> 00:48:42,560
Speaker 1: and his story who prompted Ukraine impeachment. Bombshell information. It

916
00:48:42,600 --> 00:48:45,080
Speaker 1: should never have gotten to an impeachment when people see this.

917
00:48:45,160 --> 00:48:47,279
Speaker 1: But the evidence we're going to show you tomorrow night

918
00:48:47,840 --> 00:48:50,520
Speaker 1: was never given to the senators who sat as jurors.

919
00:48:50,800 --> 00:48:53,200
Speaker 1: It was never given to President Trump's defense lawyers even

920
00:48:53,239 --> 00:48:55,400
Speaker 1: though it was exculpatory, and it was never given to

921
00:48:55,440 --> 00:48:58,960
Speaker 1: the impeachment managers. So they were flying blind on the

922
00:48:59,080 --> 00:49:03,840
Speaker 1: very thing that started the entire impeachment back in twenty nineteen.

923
00:49:04,040 --> 00:49:05,560
Speaker 1: We all know now that the hunter Biden did have

924
00:49:05,560 --> 00:49:08,040
Speaker 1: a crap relationship, he did have a tax problem, the

925
00:49:08,040 --> 00:49:10,680
Speaker 1: things that President Trump wanted to investigated. But now we're

926
00:49:10,680 --> 00:49:12,640
Speaker 1: going to let you know that the intelligence community who

927
00:49:12,680 --> 00:49:17,000
Speaker 1: started that impeachment knew they had major problems with the

928
00:49:17,040 --> 00:49:20,160
