1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:04,439 Speaker 1: The Department of Justice, we now have learned, is investigating 2 00:00:04,559 --> 00:00:10,920 Speaker 1: Black Lives Matter Why for the misuse they're saying of donations. 3 00:00:11,560 --> 00:00:15,720 Speaker 1: The Justice Department is probing whether Black Lives Matter defrauded 4 00:00:15,760 --> 00:00:19,119 Speaker 1: donors who sent the organization millions of dollars during the 5 00:00:19,320 --> 00:00:23,759 Speaker 1: racial justice protests in twenty twenty. This coming from the 6 00:00:23,840 --> 00:00:28,200 Speaker 1: Associated Press. We also know that federal law enforcement authorities 7 00:00:28,640 --> 00:00:32,800 Speaker 1: have issued subpoenas and served a search warrant as part 8 00:00:32,840 --> 00:00:37,760 Speaker 1: of an investigation into Black Lives Matter. The Global Network Foundation, Inc. 9 00:00:38,479 --> 00:00:41,960 Speaker 1: That helped ignite the protests in US cities following the 10 00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:45,680 Speaker 1: death of George Floyd in Minnesota in May of twenty twenty. 11 00:00:46,240 --> 00:00:50,559 Speaker 1: That coming again from anonymous sources. Now, protests in some 12 00:00:50,720 --> 00:00:57,000 Speaker 1: locations resulted in deaths, lots of rioting, looting, fires, and 13 00:00:57,120 --> 00:01:01,880 Speaker 1: extensive property destruction. According to the Associated Press, it was 14 00:01:01,920 --> 00:01:06,120 Speaker 1: not clear if the investigation would result in criminal charges, 15 00:01:06,760 --> 00:01:11,640 Speaker 1: but its mere existence invites fresh scrutiny to a movement 16 00:01:11,760 --> 00:01:15,919 Speaker 1: that in recent years has faced criticism about its public 17 00:01:15,920 --> 00:01:20,840 Speaker 1: accounting of donations it has received. The Justice Department, by 18 00:01:20,880 --> 00:01:23,720 Speaker 1: the way, has declined to comment on the report. Why 19 00:01:23,840 --> 00:01:26,760 Speaker 1: because clearly they're working on this and they don't want 20 00:01:26,760 --> 00:01:30,920 Speaker 1: to tip anyone off. Now, the investigation actually began, just 21 00:01:30,959 --> 00:01:35,480 Speaker 1: so you understand the timeline here in the Biden administration that, 22 00:01:35,600 --> 00:01:38,679 Speaker 1: according to one of the AP sources, and has received 23 00:01:38,720 --> 00:01:44,360 Speaker 1: renewed attention during the Trump administration. The BOM Foundation said 24 00:01:44,360 --> 00:01:48,800 Speaker 1: it took in over ninety million dollars in donations following 25 00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:52,320 Speaker 1: the highly publicized death of George Floyd, who was seen 26 00:01:52,360 --> 00:01:55,160 Speaker 1: on that viral video struggling to breathe under the knee 27 00:01:55,160 --> 00:01:59,240 Speaker 1: of a white Minneapolis police officer who was later convicted 28 00:01:59,480 --> 00:02:04,600 Speaker 1: of murder. Now, critics have accused the nonprofit foundation of 29 00:02:04,720 --> 00:02:08,359 Speaker 1: not being forthcoming about how it was spending the donations 30 00:02:08,360 --> 00:02:10,200 Speaker 1: that they were receiving that were in the tens of 31 00:02:10,200 --> 00:02:14,400 Speaker 1: millions of dollars. Critics of the organization have looked at 32 00:02:14,400 --> 00:02:18,080 Speaker 1: a very shocking moment in twenty twenty two when it 33 00:02:18,200 --> 00:02:21,320 Speaker 1: was learned that some of the funds that were raised 34 00:02:21,360 --> 00:02:24,520 Speaker 1: in the name of George Floyd actually went to purchase 35 00:02:24,560 --> 00:02:29,800 Speaker 1: a six million dollar mansion in Los Angeles, six bedrooms, 36 00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:35,000 Speaker 1: six baths, a swimming pool, and other luxury amenities. The 37 00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:39,400 Speaker 1: co founder of BLM also admitted that she used the 38 00:02:39,400 --> 00:02:45,200 Speaker 1: group's six million property to host personal parties. The BLM 39 00:02:45,240 --> 00:02:49,679 Speaker 1: leader later resigned in twenty twenty three after much of 40 00:02:49,720 --> 00:02:52,040 Speaker 1: the information I've just told you went public. 41 00:02:52,760 --> 00:02:55,400 Speaker 2: The Associated Press also reports. 42 00:02:54,919 --> 00:02:59,520 Speaker 1: That no prior investigations into the nonprofits finances have quote 43 00:02:59,600 --> 00:03:03,800 Speaker 1: yielded proof of impropriety. The latest federal form filing, the 44 00:03:03,840 --> 00:03:08,560 Speaker 1: Wire Service reported, shows that BOM Foundation had twenty eight 45 00:03:08,680 --> 00:03:11,880 Speaker 1: million in assets for the fiscal year ending June twenty 46 00:03:11,919 --> 00:03:16,160 Speaker 1: twenty four. The current investigation is reportedly being run out 47 00:03:16,160 --> 00:03:18,840 Speaker 1: of the US Attorney's Office for the Central District of 48 00:03:18,880 --> 00:03:23,160 Speaker 1: California in LA. In his statement to the AP on Thursday, 49 00:03:23,560 --> 00:03:26,960 Speaker 1: the foundation said it is not a target of any 50 00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:35,160 Speaker 1: federal criminal investigation, saying, quote, we remain committed to full transparency, accountability, 51 00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:40,880 Speaker 1: and the responsible stewardship of resources dedicated to building a 52 00:03:40,920 --> 00:03:45,320 Speaker 1: better future for black communities. The Black Lives Matter slogan 53 00:03:45,520 --> 00:03:49,640 Speaker 1: that first emerged back in twenty thirteen after the acquittal 54 00:03:49,680 --> 00:03:53,280 Speaker 1: of Neighborhood Watch volunteer George Zimmerman, who fatally shot his 55 00:03:53,400 --> 00:03:57,080 Speaker 1: seventeen year old Trayvon Martin in Florida, is what was 56 00:03:57,280 --> 00:04:01,080 Speaker 1: legally ruled a standard ground case. It was the death 57 00:04:01,120 --> 00:04:04,400 Speaker 1: the following year of Michael Brown who was shot as 58 00:04:04,440 --> 00:04:07,760 Speaker 1: he charged a police officer in Ferguson, Missouri. That made 59 00:04:07,800 --> 00:04:11,280 Speaker 1: the slogan black Lives Matter a national and later a 60 00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:16,720 Speaker 1: worldwide rallying cry for leftists social justice. So here we 61 00:04:16,800 --> 00:04:20,039 Speaker 1: are now the DOJ seeming to do the job that 62 00:04:20,200 --> 00:04:23,600 Speaker 1: should have been done under the Biden administration, looking into 63 00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:26,560 Speaker 1: the misuse of the donations that were in the name 64 00:04:26,720 --> 00:04:29,320 Speaker 1: of social justice but in reality may have been going 65 00:04:29,400 --> 00:04:32,240 Speaker 1: just to buy luxury houses for the people at the 66 00:04:32,240 --> 00:04:36,320 Speaker 1: top of the Black Lives Matter organization. You may have 67 00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:39,440 Speaker 1: noticed that the Fed met and they did something with 68 00:04:39,560 --> 00:04:42,520 Speaker 1: interest rates. It has now had a pretty big impact 69 00:04:42,560 --> 00:04:46,440 Speaker 1: on the market, and that includes gold and silver. Joining 70 00:04:46,440 --> 00:04:48,080 Speaker 1: me now to talk about what this can mean for 71 00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:51,080 Speaker 1: your retirement. Your four oh one k is Kurt Elliott 72 00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:52,479 Speaker 1: with Kurt Elliott Precious Metals. 73 00:04:52,560 --> 00:04:52,800 Speaker 2: Kurt. 74 00:04:52,839 --> 00:04:55,880 Speaker 1: So, the Fed did what Donald Trump has been asking 75 00:04:55,960 --> 00:04:59,279 Speaker 1: for and saying is long overdue. They cut interest rates 76 00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:02,039 Speaker 1: again by another quarter point. That is good news and 77 00:05:02,080 --> 00:05:05,080 Speaker 1: theory for a lot of Americans. What is it doing 78 00:05:05,080 --> 00:05:07,240 Speaker 1: in the markets? What's it doing with gold and silver? 79 00:05:07,720 --> 00:05:11,839 Speaker 3: Well, whenever you lower interest rates, it should stimulate the economy, right, Ben, 80 00:05:11,880 --> 00:05:14,599 Speaker 3: I mean, this is this is why Trump wants it done. 81 00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:17,960 Speaker 4: He knows this, and it did just that. 82 00:05:18,640 --> 00:05:24,560 Speaker 3: So so gold and silver doing really well. Silver had 83 00:05:24,640 --> 00:05:28,080 Speaker 3: come off of its high last week. It hit fifty 84 00:05:28,120 --> 00:05:33,040 Speaker 3: four dollars an ounce, very over bought. Literally technically it 85 00:05:33,120 --> 00:05:36,760 Speaker 3: was very overbought because it went up so fast, so furious. 86 00:05:37,240 --> 00:05:39,760 Speaker 3: You know, it is up about nineteen percent in two weeks. 87 00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:43,359 Speaker 3: Then it needed to correct, right, So it came down 88 00:05:43,960 --> 00:05:46,360 Speaker 3: five dollars in a matter of four or five days, 89 00:05:47,080 --> 00:05:51,080 Speaker 3: and people thought, oh the world isn't what's up? Silver 90 00:05:51,160 --> 00:05:54,120 Speaker 3: is supposed to go up, you know what it is 91 00:05:54,240 --> 00:05:58,120 Speaker 3: because the bed lowered interest rates. Gold and silver respond 92 00:05:58,480 --> 00:06:03,200 Speaker 3: very well to interest rate reductions because for silver, that 93 00:06:03,279 --> 00:06:05,560 Speaker 3: means the economy is going to grow, right, It's like 94 00:06:05,680 --> 00:06:08,159 Speaker 3: when when you lower the cost of borrowing. When you 95 00:06:08,200 --> 00:06:10,599 Speaker 3: when you lower that, people are going to spend more. 96 00:06:10,960 --> 00:06:15,119 Speaker 3: And silver more than anything. Is A is a manufacturing medal, 97 00:06:15,160 --> 00:06:17,720 Speaker 3: not a financial medal like gold. It's a it's a 98 00:06:17,800 --> 00:06:21,400 Speaker 3: manufacturing medal. So the propensity for growth, for usage, for 99 00:06:21,480 --> 00:06:25,200 Speaker 3: extra demand is there. And silver did the turnaround and 100 00:06:25,279 --> 00:06:29,360 Speaker 3: it's honest, way back up again. I mean, these these 101 00:06:29,560 --> 00:06:34,120 Speaker 3: markets spend. These precious metals markets are like buoys in 102 00:06:34,160 --> 00:06:37,520 Speaker 3: the ocean. You just can't keep them down right. 103 00:06:37,320 --> 00:06:41,880 Speaker 1: Now, it's it really is incredible, and it's like you said, 104 00:06:42,040 --> 00:06:43,560 Speaker 1: this is a world trading market. 105 00:06:43,560 --> 00:06:44,760 Speaker 2: When it comes to gold and silver. 106 00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:47,320 Speaker 1: There's also some changes that are coming to how you 107 00:06:47,360 --> 00:06:49,960 Speaker 1: can can invest in and deal with gold and silver 108 00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:53,200 Speaker 1: in your retirement account. That deadliner or that that I 109 00:06:53,200 --> 00:06:55,560 Speaker 1: guess door opening is coming very soon, and so there 110 00:06:55,560 --> 00:06:57,640 Speaker 1: also seems to be a lot of movement there as well. 111 00:06:58,200 --> 00:07:01,200 Speaker 3: A lot of movement, and that's part of the demand, 112 00:07:01,320 --> 00:07:05,240 Speaker 3: right because once that happens the first week in February, 113 00:07:05,320 --> 00:07:09,720 Speaker 3: when when you know for your listeners who don't know, 114 00:07:09,760 --> 00:07:13,679 Speaker 3: it's part of the executive order signed on August seventh 115 00:07:13,720 --> 00:07:17,280 Speaker 3: to democratization of alternative assets. In four to one case, 116 00:07:17,600 --> 00:07:21,680 Speaker 3: it's going to allow cryptocurrency direct and indirect ownership of commodities, 117 00:07:21,720 --> 00:07:24,760 Speaker 3: which golden silver is a commodity, and real estate in a. 118 00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:28,080 Speaker 4: Four to oh one k then it's a twelve trillion. 119 00:07:27,840 --> 00:07:31,800 Speaker 3: Dollar market, like we've talked about before. So people, if 120 00:07:32,200 --> 00:07:37,320 Speaker 3: you wait until after that kind of marketplace opens its door, well, 121 00:07:37,360 --> 00:07:40,560 Speaker 3: prices are going to be way high, right, So people 122 00:07:40,640 --> 00:07:43,280 Speaker 3: are getting in now in anticipation of that. And that's 123 00:07:43,320 --> 00:07:46,440 Speaker 3: one thing that I tell investors all the time is 124 00:07:46,640 --> 00:07:50,280 Speaker 3: I would rather be one or two or three months 125 00:07:50,360 --> 00:07:54,920 Speaker 3: early than a day late. And something as fundamentally massive 126 00:07:55,720 --> 00:07:59,000 Speaker 3: as this is, it's always better to be early than 127 00:07:59,040 --> 00:08:02,560 Speaker 3: a day late because daylight you might run out of inventory. 128 00:08:02,880 --> 00:08:05,200 Speaker 3: You don't know what's going to happen. In fact, London. 129 00:08:06,320 --> 00:08:09,640 Speaker 3: We have to remember this. In the financial world, financial 130 00:08:09,680 --> 00:08:14,080 Speaker 3: world and in the precious metals world, all roads lead 131 00:08:14,160 --> 00:08:17,679 Speaker 3: to London. They do for every single country. All roads 132 00:08:17,760 --> 00:08:21,560 Speaker 3: lead to London. Well, London is for all intents and 133 00:08:21,600 --> 00:08:28,280 Speaker 3: purposes out of silver. They've depleted their free flow silver supply. Well, 134 00:08:28,680 --> 00:08:31,680 Speaker 3: you know, for investors it's like, okay, we can lock 135 00:08:31,720 --> 00:08:33,840 Speaker 3: in silver prices, but maybe it's going to be delayed 136 00:08:33,880 --> 00:08:39,400 Speaker 3: delivery because refineries now are basically going flat inventory. They're 137 00:08:39,400 --> 00:08:42,679 Speaker 3: not holding anything because the cost of carrying is too high, 138 00:08:42,800 --> 00:08:46,960 Speaker 3: so they're manufacturing on demand. This is where it gets tricky. 139 00:08:47,080 --> 00:08:47,240 Speaker 5: Ben. 140 00:08:47,880 --> 00:08:54,080 Speaker 3: That doesn't work if you're Tesla or Lockheed Martin and 141 00:08:54,080 --> 00:08:56,640 Speaker 3: you're making missiles and torpedoes or your Sony and you're 142 00:08:56,640 --> 00:08:59,800 Speaker 3: making flat screen TVs, having a one to two months 143 00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:04,720 Speaker 3: lay in delivery times because the exchange is out could 144 00:09:04,840 --> 00:09:08,880 Speaker 3: mean the life or death of their company. Or if 145 00:09:08,920 --> 00:09:11,320 Speaker 3: you're an investor, yeah, it's a pain point at stressful. 146 00:09:11,320 --> 00:09:13,480 Speaker 3: It's like, am I ever going to get myself? It's 147 00:09:13,640 --> 00:09:15,920 Speaker 3: different when you're talking about a company. 148 00:09:15,920 --> 00:09:17,840 Speaker 4: So what are they going to do. 149 00:09:18,360 --> 00:09:21,520 Speaker 3: When London runs out? I have a feeling they're going 150 00:09:21,600 --> 00:09:24,800 Speaker 3: to start going directly to the source. They're going to 151 00:09:24,920 --> 00:09:27,160 Speaker 3: go to the refineries of the world and say, hey, 152 00:09:27,160 --> 00:09:29,960 Speaker 3: look we know if at silver sixty dollars ounce, we're 153 00:09:29,960 --> 00:09:32,400 Speaker 3: going to offer eighty, we'll offer a hundred, we'll offer 154 00:09:32,400 --> 00:09:35,440 Speaker 3: one hundred and twenty. We need to be at the 155 00:09:35,480 --> 00:09:38,120 Speaker 3: top of the queue because we're not going to pay 156 00:09:38,120 --> 00:09:39,480 Speaker 3: for it, We're just going to pass it on to 157 00:09:39,520 --> 00:09:43,560 Speaker 3: the consumer. This is economics one oh one, and it's 158 00:09:43,640 --> 00:09:47,880 Speaker 3: the lifeblood of your company needs a commodity that the 159 00:09:47,960 --> 00:09:52,200 Speaker 3: exchange ran out of, They're going to skip the exchange 160 00:09:52,520 --> 00:09:56,040 Speaker 3: and go directly to the source, the refinery and get 161 00:09:56,080 --> 00:09:59,120 Speaker 3: it that way because the lifeblood of the company depends 162 00:09:59,200 --> 00:10:03,120 Speaker 3: on it. And this is what happens in an industrialized 163 00:10:03,160 --> 00:10:06,480 Speaker 3: world where silver is needed for electronics and AI chips 164 00:10:06,559 --> 00:10:12,120 Speaker 3: and cryptocurrency, mining and electronics and electric vehicles and everything 165 00:10:12,200 --> 00:10:15,679 Speaker 3: that we use right now. If you don't have it, 166 00:10:16,520 --> 00:10:20,000 Speaker 3: you don't have the product. And those companies can't manufacture, 167 00:10:20,160 --> 00:10:23,880 Speaker 3: so they will find it and we as holders get 168 00:10:23,920 --> 00:10:27,199 Speaker 3: to ultimately sell into that strength. And that's the amazing 169 00:10:27,280 --> 00:10:28,800 Speaker 3: part of all of us. To me, there's hope in 170 00:10:28,800 --> 00:10:30,400 Speaker 3: this message. 171 00:10:30,280 --> 00:10:32,160 Speaker 2: And hope is the other aspect of this. 172 00:10:32,240 --> 00:10:35,320 Speaker 1: I think that people are really wanting to ask, is 173 00:10:35,480 --> 00:10:39,320 Speaker 1: looking forward in the future, where do we see, for example, 174 00:10:39,320 --> 00:10:42,320 Speaker 1: gold and silver going knowing that there is a lack 175 00:10:42,360 --> 00:10:44,199 Speaker 1: of silver in different parts of the world right now, 176 00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:46,560 Speaker 1: and it's being bought up for so many different things. 177 00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:49,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean it's being bought up for everything that 178 00:10:49,240 --> 00:10:51,680 Speaker 3: we just mentioned. But we're still in a war torn economy, 179 00:10:51,760 --> 00:10:54,840 Speaker 3: right This is a war economy that we're in when 180 00:10:54,880 --> 00:10:57,400 Speaker 3: you look at what's happening with Russian and Ukraine and 181 00:10:57,440 --> 00:11:01,360 Speaker 3: in the Middle East. And I mean, so missiles and 182 00:11:01,400 --> 00:11:04,839 Speaker 3: torpedoes need silver, nuclear power needs silver, solar power needs silver, 183 00:11:04,920 --> 00:11:08,720 Speaker 3: electric vehicles need silver, all electronic circuit boards and AI 184 00:11:08,800 --> 00:11:12,280 Speaker 3: chips need silver. Right, So it's like I don't see 185 00:11:12,320 --> 00:11:16,120 Speaker 3: any of those things diminishing in demand in fact, I 186 00:11:16,200 --> 00:11:19,800 Speaker 3: only see them increasing in demand. It's like, oh wait, 187 00:11:19,920 --> 00:11:27,440 Speaker 3: there's a problem. Supply isn't increasing. Supply is actually diminishing. Right, 188 00:11:27,559 --> 00:11:31,440 Speaker 3: So when you when you look at what's happening London 189 00:11:31,720 --> 00:11:35,520 Speaker 3: being out of silver because they have to now buy 190 00:11:35,559 --> 00:11:39,080 Speaker 3: it on the open market to fulfill the over selling 191 00:11:39,120 --> 00:11:41,600 Speaker 3: that they've done. This is how they've manipulated the markets 192 00:11:41,640 --> 00:11:44,760 Speaker 3: for decades. This is not a new thing. Then what's 193 00:11:44,840 --> 00:11:48,920 Speaker 3: new is they've actually run out. You can't manipulate something 194 00:11:48,960 --> 00:11:52,480 Speaker 3: where you have no inventory, because if somebody wants it, 195 00:11:53,080 --> 00:11:55,440 Speaker 3: you could say, well, play with the paper price, we'll 196 00:11:55,440 --> 00:11:58,200 Speaker 3: sort it, we'll do this, we'll do that. But ultimately, 197 00:11:58,480 --> 00:12:01,200 Speaker 3: if you have no inventory and there's an exchange for 198 00:12:01,280 --> 00:12:04,840 Speaker 3: physicals and the manufacturers of the world needed, they're going 199 00:12:04,880 --> 00:12:09,480 Speaker 3: to start offering any price and London could go bankrupt 200 00:12:09,520 --> 00:12:12,960 Speaker 3: over this. By London, I'm talking about the LBMA, the 201 00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:16,800 Speaker 3: London Bulliant Marketing Association, where all the metals are stored. 202 00:12:17,400 --> 00:12:21,439 Speaker 3: Well does China care? Literally, this is a question we 203 00:12:21,440 --> 00:12:24,960 Speaker 3: answer ourselves, well, why wouldn't they just sell? They have silver, 204 00:12:25,280 --> 00:12:28,040 Speaker 3: they've been buying it so as comets still of India, 205 00:12:28,200 --> 00:12:30,680 Speaker 3: but all roads lead to London. If it's not in 206 00:12:30,760 --> 00:12:34,040 Speaker 3: the right place, it can't be fulfilled. So why don't 207 00:12:34,040 --> 00:12:37,120 Speaker 3: they release it? Well, because maybe they want to squeeze 208 00:12:37,120 --> 00:12:43,040 Speaker 3: London out of business. Maybe they want to say, hey, look, 209 00:12:43,440 --> 00:12:46,320 Speaker 3: we want to take over the Western financial banking system. 210 00:12:46,400 --> 00:12:49,040 Speaker 3: We want to take over the supplies of gold and 211 00:12:49,040 --> 00:12:51,800 Speaker 3: silver in that supply chain globally and have it go 212 00:12:51,880 --> 00:12:55,040 Speaker 3: to the Shanghai gold extent. So I don't think that 213 00:12:55,160 --> 00:12:57,439 Speaker 3: China is in this for profit. I think they're in 214 00:12:57,480 --> 00:13:00,960 Speaker 3: this to destroy London as the gold and silver capital 215 00:13:01,000 --> 00:13:02,719 Speaker 3: of the world. And they're doing a pretty good job 216 00:13:02,760 --> 00:13:03,079 Speaker 3: at it. 217 00:13:03,520 --> 00:13:04,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, they really are. 218 00:13:04,480 --> 00:13:07,240 Speaker 1: Finally for this and for anybody listening right now, if 219 00:13:07,280 --> 00:13:09,640 Speaker 1: you want to get more information about what we're talking 220 00:13:09,640 --> 00:13:13,960 Speaker 1: about here, you can go to k e PM dot 221 00:13:14,000 --> 00:13:17,320 Speaker 1: com Kurt Elliott Precious Metals k e p M dot 222 00:13:17,320 --> 00:13:20,800 Speaker 1: com Kurt. When you're looking into the holidays here, what 223 00:13:21,000 --> 00:13:24,520 Speaker 1: traditionally do you see with gold and silver over the holidays? 224 00:13:24,640 --> 00:13:27,000 Speaker 1: And also if you combine that in with the rules 225 00:13:27,040 --> 00:13:29,120 Speaker 1: that are about to change retirement accounts, it's going to 226 00:13:29,480 --> 00:13:32,160 Speaker 1: change when it comes to crypto and also gold and silver. 227 00:13:32,720 --> 00:13:35,280 Speaker 1: Is that going to change things over the next ninety days. 228 00:13:35,960 --> 00:13:40,240 Speaker 3: Well, generally during the holidays, it's low volume trading, you know, 229 00:13:40,520 --> 00:13:43,400 Speaker 3: the markets kind of come down a little bit. I 230 00:13:43,440 --> 00:13:45,920 Speaker 3: don't see that that's going to be the case this year. 231 00:13:46,000 --> 00:13:50,120 Speaker 3: This year is something completely different again. The fundamentals of 232 00:13:50,679 --> 00:13:53,240 Speaker 3: what's going on. Are there going to be tariffs on 233 00:13:53,360 --> 00:13:56,640 Speaker 3: strategic metals or are there not? Is there going to 234 00:13:56,720 --> 00:14:01,280 Speaker 3: be continued war or is there not? What about consuming public? 235 00:14:01,280 --> 00:14:03,680 Speaker 3: Are they going to keep spending or not. There's so 236 00:14:03,800 --> 00:14:06,719 Speaker 3: much different this year that I don't see a downturn 237 00:14:06,880 --> 00:14:10,600 Speaker 3: in metals prices really during this holiday season like we 238 00:14:10,679 --> 00:14:13,480 Speaker 3: normally see. Then you add to that the black swamp 239 00:14:13,760 --> 00:14:17,199 Speaker 3: of the executive order and gold and silver being available 240 00:14:17,200 --> 00:14:19,320 Speaker 3: for four to one k is, you know, if the 241 00:14:19,360 --> 00:14:23,600 Speaker 3: administrators will allow it, you know, each company. I mean, 242 00:14:23,640 --> 00:14:26,360 Speaker 3: we've got a lot of built up demand. This holiday 243 00:14:26,360 --> 00:14:27,880 Speaker 3: season I believe is going to be different. 244 00:14:28,720 --> 00:14:29,920 Speaker 2: It's gonna be very different. 245 00:14:30,000 --> 00:14:32,240 Speaker 1: Don't forget if you want to find out more about 246 00:14:32,240 --> 00:14:35,840 Speaker 1: what they do at Kurt Elliott.

Devin Nunyez is now exposing Jack Smith and 262 00:15:19,640 --> 00:15:23,640 Speaker 1: telling us that they sought Trump media bank records, is 263 00:15:23,680 --> 00:15:27,720 Speaker 1: what we're being told Donald Trump saying these thugs should 264 00:15:27,760 --> 00:15:34,760 Speaker 1: be investigated. Trump Media and Technology Group Corporation TMTG CEO 265 00:15:35,120 --> 00:15:39,440 Speaker 1: and former Congressman Devin Nunyez on Thursday accused former special 266 00:15:39,480 --> 00:15:45,680 Speaker 1: counsel Jack Smith of wielding a shockingly broad secret subpoena 267 00:15:45,920 --> 00:15:49,680 Speaker 1: for the banking records of the Trump Media Empire, despite 268 00:15:49,680 --> 00:15:53,840 Speaker 1: the company not even existing at the time of his 269 00:15:54,120 --> 00:16:01,080 Speaker 1: underlying investigation. Tm TG was among the more four hundred 270 00:16:01,920 --> 00:16:07,160 Speaker 1: Trump linked individuals in organizations that were spied on as 271 00:16:07,240 --> 00:16:12,920 Speaker 1: part of special counsel Jack Smith's investigation of President Donald Trump. Specifically, 272 00:16:13,320 --> 00:16:17,320 Speaker 1: the Smith team issued as shockingly broad and secret subpoena 273 00:16:17,480 --> 00:16:20,240 Speaker 1: for our banking records. Nunez says in a statement on 274 00:16:20,320 --> 00:16:24,280 Speaker 1: True Social saying, quote, this is a stunning abuse of 275 00:16:24,360 --> 00:16:30,040 Speaker 1: power against a private business and are hundreds of thousands 276 00:16:30,040 --> 00:16:35,240 Speaker 1: of retail investors, especially since Trump Media did not even 277 00:16:35,320 --> 00:16:38,800 Speaker 1: exist at the time of the events that Jack Smith 278 00:16:39,360 --> 00:16:44,360 Speaker 1: was supposedly investigating. Nou Neez called for answers from both 279 00:16:44,400 --> 00:16:48,800 Speaker 1: the Securities and Exchange Commission, the SEC and JP Morgan 280 00:16:48,920 --> 00:16:52,440 Speaker 1: Chase on whether they were aware of the subpoena and 281 00:16:52,480 --> 00:16:57,560 Speaker 1: whether bank records were actually leaked. According the subpoena issued 282 00:16:57,720 --> 00:17:02,000 Speaker 1: to JP Morgan Chase, image of which none is shared 283 00:17:02,120 --> 00:17:06,360 Speaker 1: on social media platform, the demand covers any and all 284 00:17:06,440 --> 00:17:11,200 Speaker 1: records in your possession, custody or control for all accounts 285 00:17:11,240 --> 00:17:14,880 Speaker 1: and or trust accounts in the name of bearing the signature, 286 00:17:14,920 --> 00:17:18,520 Speaker 1: authority of, or with the ability to be accessed by 287 00:17:18,600 --> 00:17:24,520 Speaker 1: the named parties below listing TMTG among the named entities. 288 00:17:25,640 --> 00:17:29,879 Speaker 1: The subpoena spans the time period from September one, twenty twenty, 289 00:17:30,440 --> 00:17:35,080 Speaker 1: to October thirty first of twenty twenty one, and requests 290 00:17:35,080 --> 00:17:39,679 Speaker 1: an extensive array of records, including checking and saving account statements, 291 00:17:40,119 --> 00:17:47,800 Speaker 1: opening documents, wire transfers, ACCH payments, credit and debit memos, 292 00:17:48,480 --> 00:17:53,680 Speaker 1: loan and mortgage payments, safe deposit box records, debit card 293 00:17:53,760 --> 00:18:01,600 Speaker 1: transaction histories, IP addresses, cookie data, and other account inquiry metadata. 294 00:18:01,800 --> 00:18:06,639 Speaker 1: In other words, a full blown fishing expedition by the 295 00:18:06,760 --> 00:18:12,800 Speaker 1: DOJ and the FBI. Meanwhile, Smith's investigation, initiated by the 296 00:18:12,800 --> 00:18:15,600 Speaker 1: Attorney General Meyrick Garland in November of twenty twenty two, 297 00:18:16,240 --> 00:18:20,119 Speaker 1: has drawn intense scrutiny. The probe encompasses Trump's handling of 298 00:18:20,160 --> 00:18:24,399 Speaker 1: classified documents, efforts they lied about to overturn the twenty 299 00:18:24,400 --> 00:18:28,600 Speaker 1: twenty election, and alleges obstruction of justice and other matters. 300 00:18:29,280 --> 00:18:32,720 Speaker 1: In recent weeks, the Senate Judiciary Committee leaked documents showing 301 00:18:32,760 --> 00:18:36,960 Speaker 1: Smith's team issued one hundred and ninety seven subpoenas covering 302 00:18:36,960 --> 00:18:40,719 Speaker 1: at least four hundred and thirty individuals and entities as 303 00:18:40,800 --> 00:18:43,640 Speaker 1: part of an investigation dubbed Arctic Frost. 304 00:18:44,280 --> 00:18:44,639 Speaker 2: GOP. 305 00:18:44,800 --> 00:18:49,560 Speaker 1: Lawmakers have accused Smith of improperly targeting members of Congress 306 00:18:49,600 --> 00:18:53,280 Speaker 1: and others, and Smith's Council nonetheless defended the approach as 307 00:18:53,359 --> 00:18:58,800 Speaker 1: quote entirely proper and lawful. We'll see where this goes, 308 00:18:58,840 --> 00:19:01,520 Speaker 1: but there's a very good chance this is the tip 309 00:19:01,880 --> 00:19:06,080 Speaker 1: of the Arctic frost iceberg. All right, I want to 310 00:19:06,080 --> 00:19:08,800 Speaker 1: play for you now something else, and this is how 311 00:19:08,800 --> 00:19:11,400 Speaker 1: we're finding out so much about the corruption of Jack 312 00:19:11,440 --> 00:19:14,359 Speaker 1: Smith and how he sought the media record, the Trump 313 00:19:14,359 --> 00:19:17,720 Speaker 1: media bank records, among others, including one hundred and sixty 314 00:19:17,720 --> 00:19:22,040 Speaker 1: other Republicans that were apparently spied on for no damn reason. 315 00:19:22,840 --> 00:19:26,960 Speaker 1: Gretav Ancestern on Newsmax had Jim Jordan on to talk 316 00:19:27,000 --> 00:19:29,840 Speaker 1: about this, and she started with Donald Trump's true social 317 00:19:29,920 --> 00:19:32,639 Speaker 1: post about what we're now learning. I want you to 318 00:19:32,680 --> 00:19:34,399 Speaker 1: listen closely to this conversation. 319 00:19:35,320 --> 00:19:38,320 Speaker 6: These thugs should all be investigated and put in prison. 320 00:19:38,440 --> 00:19:42,040 Speaker 6: A disgrace to humanity. Deranged Jack Smith is a criminal 321 00:19:42,119 --> 00:19:45,119 Speaker 6: end quote shamed of the hout Judiciary committee that released 322 00:19:45,160 --> 00:19:48,360 Speaker 6: those files. Hile carsman, Jim Jordan joins me, good evenings, sir, 323 00:19:48,720 --> 00:19:52,000 Speaker 6: and do have all the FBI files. 324 00:19:51,640 --> 00:19:54,080 Speaker 5: On this, well, we hope, but we're going to continue 325 00:19:54,080 --> 00:19:56,280 Speaker 5: to work with Director Patel and get every piece of 326 00:19:56,280 --> 00:20:00,159 Speaker 5: information we can. God bless the cash and and of 327 00:20:00,200 --> 00:20:03,640 Speaker 5: course Pam Bondi, because they've been night and day difference 328 00:20:03,640 --> 00:20:05,879 Speaker 5: between them and what we have with Mary Garland and 329 00:20:05,960 --> 00:20:08,800 Speaker 5: Christopher Ray. But I think the big takeaway here is 330 00:20:08,960 --> 00:20:12,280 Speaker 5: how much broader and more expansive this was. It wasn't 331 00:20:12,480 --> 00:20:15,280 Speaker 5: just that they took the phone of a sitting member 332 00:20:15,280 --> 00:20:18,080 Speaker 5: of Congress when they took Scott Perry's phone. It wasn't 333 00:20:18,119 --> 00:20:21,800 Speaker 5: just that they spied on eight United States Senators. Now 334 00:20:21,840 --> 00:20:24,400 Speaker 5: we learn it's over one hundred and fifty individuals, key 335 00:20:24,480 --> 00:20:28,040 Speaker 5: people in the Trump administration, key people that they went after, 336 00:20:28,119 --> 00:20:32,639 Speaker 5: getting communications, phone records, bank records, all kinds of things 337 00:20:32,680 --> 00:20:36,520 Speaker 5: they were going after. This is how expansive Artie Frost 338 00:20:36,520 --> 00:20:39,960 Speaker 5: started out, and how it even expanded even more when 339 00:20:40,040 --> 00:20:42,240 Speaker 5: Jack Smith was named special counsel and when he took 340 00:20:42,240 --> 00:20:45,119 Speaker 5: over the investigation. And finally I would say this, Greta, 341 00:20:45,200 --> 00:20:46,919 Speaker 5: this is why we want to talk to Jack Smith. 342 00:20:47,359 --> 00:20:49,480 Speaker 5: Why we've asked him to come in for a deposition 343 00:20:50,720 --> 00:20:53,120 Speaker 5: as soon as possible. We got to ask him questions 344 00:20:53,160 --> 00:20:56,200 Speaker 5: because we've already deposed two of his deputies, and they 345 00:20:56,240 --> 00:20:59,960 Speaker 5: took the fifth seventy one and seventy three times mister Brad, 346 00:21:00,200 --> 00:21:04,119 Speaker 5: mister Wyndham exercised their fift Amendment liberties, wouldn't answer questions 347 00:21:04,200 --> 00:21:06,679 Speaker 5: like was this all political? Were you going after this 348 00:21:06,720 --> 00:21:09,640 Speaker 5: to undermine and hurt President Trump in a political way? 349 00:21:09,960 --> 00:21:13,439 Speaker 5: How about any other people you surveilled or spied on 350 00:21:13,480 --> 00:21:15,920 Speaker 5: that in addition to the eight United States senators. Both 351 00:21:15,960 --> 00:21:18,560 Speaker 5: of those questions they wouldn't answer. So we want to 352 00:21:18,560 --> 00:21:20,880 Speaker 5: talk to Jack Smith, the guy who ran the investigation, 353 00:21:21,280 --> 00:21:22,920 Speaker 5: find out what kind of answers he'll give us. 354 00:21:24,200 --> 00:21:26,879 Speaker 6: Do when they went after all these records of these people, 355 00:21:27,400 --> 00:21:29,600 Speaker 6: did they have a warrant? Did they get one from 356 00:21:29,600 --> 00:21:31,800 Speaker 6: the grand jury or assigned warrant from a judge? Do 357 00:21:31,840 --> 00:21:35,000 Speaker 6: they have a warrant? Or were they just being cowboys 358 00:21:35,040 --> 00:21:38,720 Speaker 6: and going through these people, these records of these the targets. 359 00:21:39,480 --> 00:21:42,159 Speaker 5: Again, questions will ask. I think they did have a warrant. 360 00:21:42,240 --> 00:21:44,600 Speaker 5: I think they moved that way. But we want to 361 00:21:44,680 --> 00:21:48,159 Speaker 5: we want to figure all this out. We knew that 362 00:21:48,280 --> 00:21:51,040 Speaker 5: Jack Smith had, you know, put the gagolder on President Trump. 363 00:21:51,040 --> 00:21:52,879 Speaker 5: We knew we had raided Mara Lago. We knew that 364 00:21:52,920 --> 00:21:57,440 Speaker 5: one of one of Jack Smith's deputies confronted a lawyer 365 00:21:57,440 --> 00:21:59,840 Speaker 5: for one of the defendants and looked like the offering me. 366 00:22:00,000 --> 00:22:02,240 Speaker 5: It's kind of almost a bribe situation. He said, we 367 00:22:02,240 --> 00:22:04,400 Speaker 5: thought you were interested in this judge position. We didn't 368 00:22:04,440 --> 00:22:06,359 Speaker 5: know you were a Trump guy, you know, kind of 369 00:22:06,440 --> 00:22:09,480 Speaker 5: hint hint, wink wink when when they talked to Stanley Woodward. 370 00:22:10,240 --> 00:22:12,320 Speaker 5: So there's all this that went on, But the big 371 00:22:12,320 --> 00:22:15,040 Speaker 5: takeaways for me are eight United States senators, a sitting 372 00:22:15,119 --> 00:22:17,600 Speaker 5: member of Congress they took the phone up, and two 373 00:22:17,600 --> 00:22:20,280 Speaker 5: of his deputies whom we've already to post, who wouldn't 374 00:22:20,280 --> 00:22:23,080 Speaker 5: answer our questions. So that's why we want to talk 375 00:22:23,119 --> 00:22:24,560 Speaker 5: to Jacksonith. You know what, the other thing. 376 00:22:24,640 --> 00:22:27,879 Speaker 6: Choices when you look at the breath of investigation like 377 00:22:27,960 --> 00:22:29,520 Speaker 6: this with you know, over one hundred and fifty or 378 00:22:29,520 --> 00:22:31,399 Speaker 6: even if you go to the lower number that you 379 00:22:31,520 --> 00:22:34,679 Speaker 6: just you just listed, is that they didn't indict or 380 00:22:34,840 --> 00:22:36,600 Speaker 6: charge any of these people. So you get sort of 381 00:22:36,680 --> 00:22:39,120 Speaker 6: the idea that they were just looking for every thing 382 00:22:39,280 --> 00:22:41,679 Speaker 6: every place you know that you know, you know, what 383 00:22:41,720 --> 00:22:44,120 Speaker 6: could possibly be a legitimate reason if they didn't if 384 00:22:44,119 --> 00:22:46,159 Speaker 6: they didn't strike gold on anybody. 385 00:22:47,080 --> 00:22:49,879 Speaker 5: Yeah, I think I think you're right they were. I 386 00:22:49,960 --> 00:22:52,760 Speaker 5: think this was political. I think this was the Left 387 00:22:52,760 --> 00:22:54,760 Speaker 5: saying we're going to go after these people. We're going 388 00:22:54,840 --> 00:22:59,520 Speaker 5: to use this whole alternate elector uh reason as as 389 00:22:59,560 --> 00:23:02,760 Speaker 5: the base for why we're doing this investigation. We saw 390 00:23:02,800 --> 00:23:06,360 Speaker 5: the one email, but between it looked like between an 391 00:23:06,400 --> 00:23:10,199 Speaker 5: agent and a and a source talking about former cheapest 392 00:23:10,200 --> 00:23:13,960 Speaker 5: staff Mark Meadows was involved in some kind of treasonous activity, 393 00:23:13,960 --> 00:23:17,720 Speaker 5: which was just ridiculous. So this was the mindset. I 394 00:23:17,720 --> 00:23:20,080 Speaker 5: think it also gets to that who are these folks 395 00:23:20,119 --> 00:23:23,000 Speaker 5: in the FBI who are putting these emails together saying 396 00:23:23,000 --> 00:23:26,920 Speaker 5: that there's there's there's reason to believe that the cheapest 397 00:23:26,920 --> 00:23:29,320 Speaker 5: staff to the president of the United States was engaged 398 00:23:29,359 --> 00:23:33,880 Speaker 5: in treason this behavior that's just ridiculous. But that reason said, 399 00:23:33,920 --> 00:23:34,919 Speaker 5: and it makes no sense. 400 00:23:35,920 --> 00:23:37,959 Speaker 6: I hate them when these reason to believe. Okay, the 401 00:23:38,000 --> 00:23:40,720 Speaker 6: documents that you believe had a lot of black spots 402 00:23:40,760 --> 00:23:43,040 Speaker 6: on them, a lot of redactions. Is that something you 403 00:23:43,080 --> 00:23:45,879 Speaker 6: did or the FBI did. And the reason that matters 404 00:23:45,960 --> 00:23:48,760 Speaker 6: is because you really can't read those documents unless, I mean, 405 00:23:48,800 --> 00:23:51,200 Speaker 6: you know, for full transparency. Why is everything being kept 406 00:23:51,200 --> 00:23:54,160 Speaker 6: a secret? Basically there's no I mean, if we want 407 00:23:54,200 --> 00:23:56,560 Speaker 6: to uncover what happened you know, to give it, you know, 408 00:23:56,640 --> 00:23:59,240 Speaker 6: put to find out if anything dirty was done. We 409 00:23:59,359 --> 00:24:00,680 Speaker 6: really need to do. We need to be able to 410 00:24:00,720 --> 00:24:03,320 Speaker 6: read everything, and nobody should be running for cover with 411 00:24:03,480 --> 00:24:04,320 Speaker 6: doing redactions. 412 00:24:04,920 --> 00:24:07,080 Speaker 5: We didn't put the redactions on. That's how they came 413 00:24:07,080 --> 00:24:10,359 Speaker 5: from the Justice Department. You're right, we need to have 414 00:24:10,480 --> 00:24:12,080 Speaker 5: we need to be able to read it all in 415 00:24:12,119 --> 00:24:15,359 Speaker 5: full context. But I would go a step further and 416 00:24:15,400 --> 00:24:17,960 Speaker 5: say the name's under there, I actually want to ask 417 00:24:18,000 --> 00:24:20,800 Speaker 5: them questions. I want to find out, like, who's this 418 00:24:21,119 --> 00:24:23,760 Speaker 5: source giving this look? To me when I read it, it 419 00:24:23,800 --> 00:24:26,760 Speaker 5: looks like under the redaction to be the source. And 420 00:24:26,800 --> 00:24:29,480 Speaker 5: then the agent who's getting the information. I want to 421 00:24:29,480 --> 00:24:31,080 Speaker 5: know who that source is. I want to know who 422 00:24:31,080 --> 00:24:34,120 Speaker 5: that agent is saying these ridiculous things that get put 423 00:24:34,119 --> 00:24:36,440 Speaker 5: in an email and sent to someone else as part 424 00:24:36,480 --> 00:24:39,199 Speaker 5: of this investigation. So I think it's even more than that, 425 00:24:39,320 --> 00:24:41,560 Speaker 5: not just who those what those names are. I want 426 00:24:41,560 --> 00:24:43,600 Speaker 5: to talk to those people. I want to ask them questions. 427 00:24:43,880 --> 00:24:45,560 Speaker 5: So that's that's where I think we try to go next. 428 00:24:45,560 --> 00:24:48,080 Speaker 6: Well, that's the starter. The starter is to find out 429 00:24:48,080 --> 00:24:50,520 Speaker 6: who they are. Were the redactions done during the Trump 430 00:24:50,600 --> 00:24:54,680 Speaker 6: administration or during the Brenda Biden administration or the Trump administration. 431 00:24:55,320 --> 00:24:57,800 Speaker 6: And who I mean, who is it? Someone up in 432 00:24:57,840 --> 00:25:00,159 Speaker 6: some room with a big black marker someplace. I mean, 433 00:25:00,160 --> 00:25:01,240 Speaker 6: who's doing these things? 434 00:25:01,359 --> 00:25:04,080 Speaker 5: Well, I think it's just I think got standard practice 435 00:25:04,640 --> 00:25:05,800 Speaker 5: at the Justice which. 436 00:25:05,640 --> 00:25:08,520 Speaker 6: Is not good. Which is not good. That's not good. 437 00:25:08,680 --> 00:25:11,000 Speaker 5: I mean, And I don't know which one. I don't 438 00:25:11,000 --> 00:25:13,479 Speaker 5: know which FBI did it. My gut tells me it 439 00:25:13,520 --> 00:25:17,400 Speaker 5: was probably That's how the documents were in the ray 440 00:25:17,560 --> 00:25:21,159 Speaker 5: FBI that Director Patel has gotten his hands on now 441 00:25:21,359 --> 00:25:23,479 Speaker 5: and giving to us. But I don't know that, but 442 00:25:23,640 --> 00:25:26,679 Speaker 5: that'd be my guess. But my understanding is that's just 443 00:25:26,720 --> 00:25:31,000 Speaker 5: standard names, phone numbers of agents, phone numbers and sources 444 00:25:31,080 --> 00:25:32,840 Speaker 5: names and sort of. That's just standard how they do it. 445 00:25:32,920 --> 00:25:35,400 Speaker 5: But we want to know now because we saw how 446 00:25:35,440 --> 00:25:37,679 Speaker 5: broad and how expansive this is. We want to know 447 00:25:37,680 --> 00:25:39,879 Speaker 5: who those people are so we can ask them questions. 448 00:25:40,760 --> 00:25:43,560 Speaker 6: Well, if you're then involved in investigation, especially a government person, 449 00:25:43,600 --> 00:25:45,720 Speaker 6: you don't have your name not blackened out so that 450 00:25:45,800 --> 00:25:47,399 Speaker 6: we can see who it is. We can see who's 451 00:25:47,400 --> 00:25:50,000 Speaker 6: doing what I get if it's a confidential source, it's 452 00:25:50,000 --> 00:25:51,679 Speaker 6: going to get shot on the street or something. If 453 00:25:51,680 --> 00:25:54,000 Speaker 6: we reveal it. But the fact that some way and 454 00:25:54,600 --> 00:25:56,719 Speaker 6: I'm told, I'm always told that's the way it's done, well, 455 00:25:56,760 --> 00:25:59,320 Speaker 6: that's never satisfied me because that usually means it's sort 456 00:25:59,320 --> 00:26:01,280 Speaker 6: of like, well, I think so classified in this town 457 00:26:01,320 --> 00:26:03,040 Speaker 6: because that's the way it's done. But that's where the 458 00:26:03,119 --> 00:26:05,480 Speaker 6: lack of transparency, you know, And we could get to that. 459 00:26:05,520 --> 00:26:07,640 Speaker 6: We could get to the end of this very quickly 460 00:26:08,000 --> 00:26:10,480 Speaker 6: if we could read everything and see it, and even 461 00:26:10,520 --> 00:26:12,400 Speaker 6: if they turned it over to you unredacted, it would 462 00:26:12,400 --> 00:26:14,000 Speaker 6: be good. I mean, I realized maybe it won't turn 463 00:26:14,040 --> 00:26:15,760 Speaker 6: it into the public, but you know, I don't know 464 00:26:15,760 --> 00:26:17,919 Speaker 6: how you do an investigation when you can't get all 465 00:26:17,960 --> 00:26:18,480 Speaker 6: the material. 466 00:26:19,040 --> 00:26:21,480 Speaker 5: Well, we're working on finding out what the name is 467 00:26:21,560 --> 00:26:24,600 Speaker 5: underneath those those those those black lines. We want to 468 00:26:24,640 --> 00:26:26,719 Speaker 5: know who the name is or what the name is. 469 00:26:26,720 --> 00:26:28,520 Speaker 5: We want to know who that individual is, so again 470 00:26:28,600 --> 00:26:30,719 Speaker 5: we can we can ask them questions like where did 471 00:26:30,720 --> 00:26:33,280 Speaker 5: they I think, particularly that the email I keep citing, 472 00:26:33,480 --> 00:26:35,040 Speaker 5: I won't know who that source is because I think 473 00:26:35,080 --> 00:26:38,320 Speaker 5: it's the source that they were using. Who was the 474 00:26:38,359 --> 00:26:42,560 Speaker 5: person alleging that the former chiefest staff was engaged? That's 475 00:26:42,600 --> 00:26:44,760 Speaker 5: just just the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard. 476 00:26:44,840 --> 00:26:46,480 Speaker 6: Well, do you know what though, But it's a little 477 00:26:46,480 --> 00:26:48,480 Speaker 6: bit like when they were using that guy Steel as 478 00:26:48,520 --> 00:26:50,439 Speaker 6: a source. They kept using it wouldn't tell. But if 479 00:26:50,440 --> 00:26:52,919 Speaker 6: anyone had pulled, if anyone had investigated Steel, you wouldn't 480 00:26:52,920 --> 00:26:55,239 Speaker 6: have used him as a source, you know. But if 481 00:26:55,280 --> 00:26:57,480 Speaker 6: you just say the person, say source, and black it out, 482 00:26:57,600 --> 00:26:59,720 Speaker 6: there's no way to challenge whether it's someone who has 483 00:26:59,800 --> 00:27:02,439 Speaker 6: good information or if someone's got an ax to grind 484 00:27:02,800 --> 00:27:03,520 Speaker 6: or whatever. 485 00:27:03,640 --> 00:27:07,280 Speaker 5: You know, that's right, and not to mention the sub 486 00:27:07,359 --> 00:27:10,679 Speaker 5: sources that Steele was using, who would just further complicates 487 00:27:10,680 --> 00:27:13,359 Speaker 5: it means there's more lies than that ridiculous dossier that 488 00:27:13,400 --> 00:27:15,399 Speaker 5: they relied on to get warrants to go spaw on 489 00:27:15,400 --> 00:27:19,639 Speaker 5: a presidential campaign. No great point, and it's again, this 490 00:27:19,800 --> 00:27:23,800 Speaker 5: all now has come all getting exposed goes clear back 491 00:27:24,280 --> 00:27:27,320 Speaker 5: to twenty sixteen when they spider.
