1 00:00:00,440 --> 00:00:03,279 Speaker 1: Well, I'd rather not say that, but very high level people. 2 00:00:03,320 --> 00:00:06,120 Speaker 1: But hopefully that can be worked out, you know, look, Iran, 3 00:00:06,680 --> 00:00:08,440 Speaker 1: hopefully we'll be a make a deal. And if they 4 00:00:08,440 --> 00:00:11,280 Speaker 1: don't make a deal, I guess that's okay too. 5 00:00:12,119 --> 00:00:13,119 Speaker 2: And mister Prescient, just. 6 00:00:13,160 --> 00:00:15,080 Speaker 3: To follow up, you said you think the FED should 7 00:00:15,120 --> 00:00:15,760 Speaker 3: listens to you. 8 00:00:16,040 --> 00:00:17,800 Speaker 4: Couldn't you elaborate on why you. 9 00:00:17,720 --> 00:00:19,840 Speaker 2: Think it should have with regard to interest rates? 10 00:00:19,880 --> 00:00:22,239 Speaker 1: Correct you, because I think I know interest rates much 11 00:00:22,280 --> 00:00:24,800 Speaker 1: better than they do, and I think I know it's 12 00:00:24,800 --> 00:00:28,680 Speaker 1: certainly much better than uh the one who's primarily in 13 00:00:28,760 --> 00:00:32,000 Speaker 1: charge of making that decision. But uh no, I'm guided 14 00:00:32,040 --> 00:00:34,640 Speaker 1: by them very much. But if I disagree, I will 15 00:00:34,880 --> 00:00:35,479 Speaker 1: let it be now. 16 00:00:35,840 --> 00:00:39,080 Speaker 5: So you're terarious plans for China and Mexico or much toppers. 17 00:00:39,159 --> 00:00:41,239 Speaker 6: The ones for Candida in Mexico are much topper than 18 00:00:41,240 --> 00:00:42,000 Speaker 6: the one for China. 19 00:00:42,080 --> 00:00:43,800 Speaker 2: Why is it softer for China? 20 00:00:43,960 --> 00:00:46,760 Speaker 1: Well, China's already paying a lot of tariffs because of me, 21 00:00:47,680 --> 00:00:50,040 Speaker 1: and when you add 'em up, I would say, you 22 00:00:50,080 --> 00:00:52,240 Speaker 1: know they're paying a lot. They paid hundreds of billions 23 00:00:52,320 --> 00:00:55,920 Speaker 1: of dollars. They never paid s ten cents until I 24 00:00:55,960 --> 00:00:59,200 Speaker 1: came along. When I came along. Uh, they pay hundreds 25 00:00:59,200 --> 00:01:04,760 Speaker 1: if they've paid hundreds of billions of dollars, never paid anything, 26 00:01:05,800 --> 00:01:08,520 Speaker 1: and uh so they've already started at a higher base 27 00:01:09,160 --> 00:01:10,240 Speaker 1: for Or is the. 28 00:01:10,319 --> 00:01:13,000 Speaker 2: Date for Chinese tariffs as well, sir, February one? 29 00:01:13,080 --> 00:01:14,600 Speaker 3: Or was that just Mexico and Canada? 30 00:01:14,680 --> 00:01:17,360 Speaker 1: Uh, it's Mexico and Canada, but we'll we're talking about 31 00:01:17,440 --> 00:01:22,920 Speaker 1: China too. Look, China's sending us tremendous amounts of bad drugs, fentanyl, 32 00:01:23,200 --> 00:01:28,440 Speaker 1: really bad stuff. Most of it comes through Mexico, and 33 00:01:28,480 --> 00:01:32,320 Speaker 1: we're losing I s I think three hundred thousand lives 34 00:01:32,360 --> 00:01:34,840 Speaker 1: a year because of the people say a hundred and fifty, 35 00:01:34,840 --> 00:01:36,080 Speaker 1: a hundred hundred and twenty. 36 00:01:36,480 --> 00:01:38,720 Speaker 2: I think three hundred thousand lives a year. Those are 37 00:01:38,760 --> 00:01:39,440 Speaker 2: old numbers. 38 00:01:40,520 --> 00:01:44,000 Speaker 1: The other the lower numbers alone number and we can't 39 00:01:44,040 --> 00:01:46,240 Speaker 1: have that. They've gotta stop sending it. I had a 40 00:01:46,280 --> 00:01:48,600 Speaker 1: deal with presidency, but it was a deal that wasn't 41 00:01:48,600 --> 00:01:51,520 Speaker 1: followed up by Biden of course. Uh, where they were 42 00:01:51,560 --> 00:01:54,720 Speaker 1: gonna issue the death penalty to people that make fentanyl, 43 00:01:55,360 --> 00:02:00,080 Speaker 1: and that would have stopped it. But we'll have to 44 00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:01,800 Speaker 1: stop it with tariffs. 45 00:02:01,800 --> 00:02:02,440 Speaker 2: Thank you very. 46 00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:14,560 Speaker 7: Much, Thank you guys, staid. 47 00:02:15,960 --> 00:02:19,240 Speaker 8: Well, it is another day in the Trump administration and 48 00:02:19,440 --> 00:02:23,960 Speaker 8: President Trump holding true on those promises, signing another flurry 49 00:02:24,040 --> 00:02:26,960 Speaker 8: of orders, one of which a lot of you anticipating. 50 00:02:27,040 --> 00:02:31,160 Speaker 8: He just ordered the declassification of the JFK, RFK and 51 00:02:31,440 --> 00:02:35,800 Speaker 8: mL K junior files. Another major move by President Trump 52 00:02:35,800 --> 00:02:39,639 Speaker 8: here today pardoning the pro lifers who were prosecuted by 53 00:02:39,639 --> 00:02:42,960 Speaker 8: Biden's do O J and sentenced to federal prison for 54 00:02:43,080 --> 00:02:45,720 Speaker 8: praying outside of abortion clinics. And I just want to 55 00:02:45,720 --> 00:02:48,239 Speaker 8: go around and get your response real quick, because it's 56 00:02:48,280 --> 00:02:50,920 Speaker 8: hard to believe that we had to pardon those that 57 00:02:50,960 --> 00:02:53,200 Speaker 8: were praying and not the pro homust protesters. 58 00:02:53,520 --> 00:02:53,680 Speaker 9: Yeah. 59 00:02:53,720 --> 00:02:55,520 Speaker 3: Absolutely, Michelle. I think that's a really great point. 60 00:02:55,520 --> 00:02:57,680 Speaker 5: I mean, this is just another example of promises made, 61 00:02:57,760 --> 00:02:59,480 Speaker 5: promises kept from the former president. 62 00:02:59,560 --> 00:03:00,680 Speaker 3: And he's just he's getting started. 63 00:03:00,680 --> 00:03:02,680 Speaker 5: He just got inaugurated on Monday, and look at all 64 00:03:02,720 --> 00:03:04,200 Speaker 5: the things that he's been able to accomplish. 65 00:03:04,320 --> 00:03:07,280 Speaker 10: And and I'm really excited about the JFK files. People 66 00:03:07,320 --> 00:03:09,720 Speaker 10: have been looking for this for so long. I remember 67 00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:12,480 Speaker 10: talking with Roger Stone about this in the first administration, 68 00:03:12,520 --> 00:03:14,760 Speaker 10: and Roger was pushing very very hard for the President 69 00:03:14,840 --> 00:03:17,200 Speaker 10: to release him. And he wouldn't, and he say he wouldn't, 70 00:03:17,240 --> 00:03:18,919 Speaker 10: say why he wouldn't. Here we are on a second 71 00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:20,720 Speaker 10: term and he's doing it. I think a lot of 72 00:03:20,720 --> 00:03:22,440 Speaker 10: people are looking forward to what's in those files. 73 00:03:22,480 --> 00:03:24,800 Speaker 8: One hundred percent is something we're definitely going to be 74 00:03:24,880 --> 00:03:25,480 Speaker 8: diving into. 75 00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:27,040 Speaker 3: So there goes my weekend plans. 76 00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:29,280 Speaker 8: By the way, we'll be sure to keep you updated 77 00:03:29,320 --> 00:03:31,760 Speaker 8: on that. Welcome you into Special Report. If you're just 78 00:03:31,800 --> 00:03:34,359 Speaker 8: tuning in, I am Michelle back As alongside Bo Davidson 79 00:03:34,680 --> 00:03:35,520 Speaker 8: and EMILYE. 80 00:03:35,720 --> 00:03:36,040 Speaker 11: Finn. 81 00:03:36,080 --> 00:03:37,480 Speaker 3: You just saw Trump. 82 00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:41,520 Speaker 8: Sign that flurry of executive orders and of course taking questions. 83 00:03:41,600 --> 00:03:43,760 Speaker 8: Now I must say I believe that Trump has taken 84 00:03:44,040 --> 00:03:46,360 Speaker 8: more questions in the past three days than Biden has 85 00:03:46,440 --> 00:03:49,880 Speaker 8: the past four years. And as we continue on that 86 00:03:49,960 --> 00:03:54,200 Speaker 8: trend of promises made, promises kept, Ice has begun doing 87 00:03:54,320 --> 00:03:58,040 Speaker 8: raids in multiple cities across the United States, including Boston. 88 00:03:58,680 --> 00:04:01,120 Speaker 8: You can see that footage right there on your screen. 89 00:04:01,160 --> 00:04:04,640 Speaker 8: And keep in mind, these are criminals that President Trump 90 00:04:04,800 --> 00:04:06,800 Speaker 8: has ordered to be arrested. This was part of the 91 00:04:06,840 --> 00:04:10,360 Speaker 8: first round of roundups. Here I seeing them take You 92 00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:13,440 Speaker 8: can see Ice taking them into the cars as we speak. 93 00:04:13,480 --> 00:04:15,360 Speaker 8: And we're going to be covering this more in detail 94 00:04:15,440 --> 00:04:16,400 Speaker 8: later in the show. 95 00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:20,040 Speaker 10: Absolutely, and also near today, President Trump signed an executive 96 00:04:20,120 --> 00:04:23,279 Speaker 10: order revoking the security clearance is of fifty one former 97 00:04:23,320 --> 00:04:26,719 Speaker 10: intelligence officials, and this includes former CIA director John Brennan, 98 00:04:26,839 --> 00:04:30,120 Speaker 10: who is now lashing out at the quote misrepresentation of 99 00:04:30,120 --> 00:04:31,000 Speaker 10: the laptop letter. 100 00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:31,839 Speaker 11: Let's take a look. 101 00:04:32,120 --> 00:04:34,279 Speaker 12: The only reason why I still had a security clearance, 102 00:04:34,360 --> 00:04:36,640 Speaker 12: as I have for the past number of years since 103 00:04:36,640 --> 00:04:39,200 Speaker 12: I left government service, was for the benefit of the government, 104 00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:42,159 Speaker 12: so that if the CIA or another government agency wanted 105 00:04:42,200 --> 00:04:44,480 Speaker 12: to call me in to discuss the classified matter. 106 00:04:44,279 --> 00:04:44,960 Speaker 11: They could do that. 107 00:04:45,520 --> 00:04:47,760 Speaker 12: And so it was really for the government's benefit. It 108 00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:50,880 Speaker 12: would facilitate those classified discussions with myself as well as 109 00:04:50,880 --> 00:04:53,800 Speaker 12: with former directors as well as other former members of 110 00:04:53,839 --> 00:04:57,680 Speaker 12: the Intel's community that had those clearances. So again, yesterday's 111 00:04:57,880 --> 00:05:02,159 Speaker 12: EO is a bizarre among many the bizarre executive orders 112 00:05:02,160 --> 00:05:04,320 Speaker 12: that he had signed out. And as you point out, 113 00:05:04,320 --> 00:05:06,960 Speaker 12: he misrepresented the facts in that executive order because it 114 00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:10,000 Speaker 12: said that we had suggested that the Hunter Biden laptop 115 00:05:10,080 --> 00:05:13,359 Speaker 12: story was Russian disinformation. No, we said it was for 116 00:05:13,520 --> 00:05:17,360 Speaker 12: the hall marks of Russian information operations, including the dumping 117 00:05:17,400 --> 00:05:19,960 Speaker 12: of accurate information which is what we said in that letter. 118 00:05:20,480 --> 00:05:21,840 Speaker 2: So again, this was just. 119 00:05:21,839 --> 00:05:24,640 Speaker 12: You know, his effort to try to get back at 120 00:05:24,640 --> 00:05:28,039 Speaker 12: those individuals who have criticized him openly and publicly in 121 00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:30,000 Speaker 12: the past, and I think very legitimately. 122 00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:32,320 Speaker 10: And for more on all this, let's bring in trumps 123 00:05:32,320 --> 00:05:35,840 Speaker 10: senior advisor, Bruce Lavelle. Bruce, let's get you fired up. 124 00:05:35,839 --> 00:05:37,480 Speaker 10: I know it's not hard to do, but let's get 125 00:05:37,480 --> 00:05:38,280 Speaker 10: your thoughts on this. 126 00:05:40,160 --> 00:05:40,480 Speaker 2: Yeah. 127 00:05:40,520 --> 00:05:43,200 Speaker 13: Good, thanks for having me, man, I'm just so related 128 00:05:43,240 --> 00:05:45,799 Speaker 13: and happy. Like you said earlier in the segment, President 129 00:05:45,839 --> 00:05:48,920 Speaker 13: Trump's done more press conferences than probably all the presidents 130 00:05:48,920 --> 00:05:50,960 Speaker 13: put together. We haven't he made it in a week yet, 131 00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:53,320 Speaker 13: So here we go, Bruce. 132 00:05:53,360 --> 00:05:56,080 Speaker 8: You know, Ice has already arrested nearly five hundred violent 133 00:05:56,320 --> 00:05:59,800 Speaker 8: criminal illegals and remove them from the streets in thirty 134 00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:02,240 Speaker 8: six hours. Now, this could have been done by Biden 135 00:06:02,279 --> 00:06:05,120 Speaker 8: and other Democratic leaders, but they chose not to. 136 00:06:05,560 --> 00:06:07,080 Speaker 11: I want to get your personal opinion. 137 00:06:07,200 --> 00:06:11,000 Speaker 8: Have you heard of any blowback from other Democratic leaders 138 00:06:11,080 --> 00:06:14,120 Speaker 8: or just anyone in your circle since these arrests started happening. 139 00:06:15,160 --> 00:06:17,279 Speaker 13: Well, you know it is early. Of course, we have 140 00:06:17,680 --> 00:06:19,480 Speaker 13: you know, the next day or so to get some 141 00:06:19,520 --> 00:06:21,920 Speaker 13: of the pushback feedback if you use it. But listen, 142 00:06:22,040 --> 00:06:24,240 Speaker 13: let me tell you one of the main reasons why 143 00:06:24,279 --> 00:06:28,279 Speaker 13: President Trump got so much support. Remember when they're gathering 144 00:06:28,360 --> 00:06:31,200 Speaker 13: up all these illegal migrants, if you should say that, 145 00:06:31,360 --> 00:06:33,719 Speaker 13: and around the country, these are in a lot of 146 00:06:33,720 --> 00:06:36,560 Speaker 13: the quote underserved communities, and some of these are in 147 00:06:36,560 --> 00:06:40,400 Speaker 13: predominantly black communities, etc. Listen, these folks want these folks 148 00:06:40,520 --> 00:06:42,960 Speaker 13: out of here, and it's a travesty that we have 149 00:06:43,080 --> 00:06:45,400 Speaker 13: to do this. And you know it takes you know, 150 00:06:46,080 --> 00:06:48,839 Speaker 13: you would think that Joe Biden's administration would just do 151 00:06:48,920 --> 00:06:51,719 Speaker 13: the right thing and protect all citizens. But let me 152 00:06:51,720 --> 00:06:53,720 Speaker 13: tell you, if it was up in his neighborhood or 153 00:06:53,800 --> 00:06:56,520 Speaker 13: up in their hood, these folks wouldn't be there. So, 154 00:06:56,640 --> 00:07:00,400 Speaker 13: like I said, when you have really bad policies, it 155 00:07:00,440 --> 00:07:03,960 Speaker 13: trickles down to most quote of a lot of underserved communities, 156 00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:06,240 Speaker 13: which essentially is where a lot of the votes came 157 00:07:06,279 --> 00:07:09,240 Speaker 13: from for President Trump. And we'll get more, so stay tuned. 158 00:07:09,279 --> 00:07:10,720 Speaker 13: So we got a lot of work to do, ladies 159 00:07:10,720 --> 00:07:11,239 Speaker 13: and gentlemen. 160 00:07:11,360 --> 00:07:12,880 Speaker 11: That's right, one hundred percent. Bruce Well. 161 00:07:12,920 --> 00:07:15,440 Speaker 10: This comes as Trump's approval rating hit an all time 162 00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:18,640 Speaker 10: high of fifty two point three percent. What argument, Bruce, 163 00:07:18,680 --> 00:07:20,200 Speaker 10: do you think are the Democrats going to try and 164 00:07:20,240 --> 00:07:21,600 Speaker 10: run with at this point? Are they just going to 165 00:07:21,640 --> 00:07:23,760 Speaker 10: stick with the whole elon and the Nazi salute? 166 00:07:23,800 --> 00:07:24,640 Speaker 11: Is that the best they can do? 167 00:07:25,640 --> 00:07:27,840 Speaker 13: Well, you know, they like to bounce on words. You see, 168 00:07:27,840 --> 00:07:30,760 Speaker 13: they're running with the Dei and spinning it around saying 169 00:07:30,760 --> 00:07:34,080 Speaker 13: he doesn't like black folks, He's canceling the nineteen sixty 170 00:07:34,120 --> 00:07:37,440 Speaker 13: four the bill that was put in play, et cetera. 171 00:07:37,560 --> 00:07:39,600 Speaker 13: So this is going to be their new play the 172 00:07:39,640 --> 00:07:44,400 Speaker 13: Dei role, that's anti black, that's anti Smitic, all the 173 00:07:44,440 --> 00:07:46,680 Speaker 13: things that go on. They're going to always play on 174 00:07:46,720 --> 00:07:49,360 Speaker 13: the words in the quote, play the boogeyman game. That's 175 00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:51,520 Speaker 13: just what they do. But you would think, you know, 176 00:07:51,600 --> 00:07:53,280 Speaker 13: you would think you might want to take maybe some 177 00:07:53,360 --> 00:07:57,680 Speaker 13: of the Senator John the Fetterman's playbook and some of 178 00:07:57,720 --> 00:08:00,480 Speaker 13: the other senators around here that are quote Democrats, is 179 00:08:00,520 --> 00:08:03,160 Speaker 13: that you know, I'm not going with the foolishness. I'm 180 00:08:03,160 --> 00:08:05,320 Speaker 13: going to go with the common sense. But I think 181 00:08:05,440 --> 00:08:07,240 Speaker 13: in respect to that, I think we're going to gain 182 00:08:07,280 --> 00:08:10,040 Speaker 13: a lot more common sense folks that may not be 183 00:08:10,120 --> 00:08:11,880 Speaker 13: in the Republican part that might be on the other 184 00:08:11,960 --> 00:08:13,920 Speaker 13: side of the fence that look, enough's enough. 185 00:08:14,600 --> 00:08:17,400 Speaker 8: Amen, Grice, you know just hey, he spoke with the 186 00:08:17,400 --> 00:08:19,920 Speaker 8: World Economic Form virtually of course, take a listen to 187 00:08:19,920 --> 00:08:20,480 Speaker 8: what he said. 188 00:08:20,920 --> 00:08:24,600 Speaker 4: We're an AID freeze. And I created the new Department 189 00:08:24,760 --> 00:08:30,720 Speaker 4: of Government Efficiency. I terminated the ridiculous and incredibly wasteful 190 00:08:30,800 --> 00:08:34,440 Speaker 4: Green New Deal, I call it the Green New Scam. 191 00:08:34,800 --> 00:08:39,360 Speaker 4: Withdrew from the one sided Paris Climate Accord, and ended 192 00:08:39,400 --> 00:08:43,480 Speaker 4: the insane and costly electric vehicle mandate. We're going to 193 00:08:43,559 --> 00:08:46,240 Speaker 4: let people buy the car they want to buy. I 194 00:08:46,360 --> 00:08:51,400 Speaker 4: declared a National Energy emergency, and that's so important. National 195 00:08:51,679 --> 00:08:56,480 Speaker 4: energy emergency towardlock the liquid gold under our feet and 196 00:08:56,600 --> 00:09:00,679 Speaker 4: paved the way for rapid approvals of new energy in structure. 197 00:09:01,240 --> 00:09:03,680 Speaker 4: The United States has the largest amount of oil and 198 00:09:03,760 --> 00:09:06,800 Speaker 4: gas of any country on Earth, and we're going to 199 00:09:06,920 --> 00:09:10,120 Speaker 4: use it. Not only will this reduce the cost of 200 00:09:10,360 --> 00:09:13,600 Speaker 4: virtually all goods and services, it'll make the United States, 201 00:09:13,640 --> 00:09:20,280 Speaker 4: say manufacturing superpower and the world capital of artificial intelligence and. 202 00:09:20,240 --> 00:09:24,480 Speaker 8: Crypto Drill, baby, drill, those three sweet words, brew Brewce. 203 00:09:24,480 --> 00:09:25,960 Speaker 8: I wanted to get your opinion. How do you think 204 00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:28,280 Speaker 8: this is going to affect the US? Economy and ultimately 205 00:09:28,400 --> 00:09:30,880 Speaker 8: energy production here in this country. 206 00:09:31,840 --> 00:09:34,160 Speaker 13: Well, you know, listen, I'm a capitalist. I'm going into 207 00:09:34,200 --> 00:09:37,120 Speaker 13: thirty years of business here in April this year, and 208 00:09:37,320 --> 00:09:41,240 Speaker 13: I'm a pro businessman, and I truly believe that the market, 209 00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:44,160 Speaker 13: the free market, should always dictate and take care of itself, 210 00:09:44,200 --> 00:09:47,520 Speaker 13: which is quote the natural progression of business. Listen, the 211 00:09:47,559 --> 00:09:50,720 Speaker 13: mandatory ev markets and all things that were killers around 212 00:09:50,720 --> 00:09:55,040 Speaker 13: the country, job killers, et cetera. The market, the thirty million, 213 00:09:55,040 --> 00:09:57,600 Speaker 13: that's right, thirty million of the small business people, I'm 214 00:09:57,600 --> 00:09:59,839 Speaker 13: one of them. We make up sixty two percent of 215 00:09:59,840 --> 00:10:02,000 Speaker 13: the GDP. So yeah, we have a lot of skin 216 00:10:02,040 --> 00:10:04,120 Speaker 13: in the game. So you would think you would trust 217 00:10:04,240 --> 00:10:07,000 Speaker 13: us to run the balance sheets, to make good business 218 00:10:07,000 --> 00:10:10,120 Speaker 13: decisions to help the country, not the government. You see 219 00:10:10,120 --> 00:10:12,680 Speaker 13: what happens when the government tries to run my balance sheet, 220 00:10:12,720 --> 00:10:15,760 Speaker 13: and many other business people are watching the show, you see. 221 00:10:15,559 --> 00:10:16,320 Speaker 2: What a disaster. 222 00:10:16,400 --> 00:10:18,840 Speaker 13: That is a lot to unload, a lot to unpack. 223 00:10:18,920 --> 00:10:20,600 Speaker 13: We got to get back to the free market. 224 00:10:20,640 --> 00:10:21,079 Speaker 2: You saw. 225 00:10:21,360 --> 00:10:23,480 Speaker 13: One of the highlights for me is that when President 226 00:10:23,520 --> 00:10:26,160 Speaker 13: Trump was speaking about, as you saw, Samsung wanting to 227 00:10:26,200 --> 00:10:29,840 Speaker 13: come back and build more manufacturing facilities here because of 228 00:10:29,920 --> 00:10:31,280 Speaker 13: the gas stoves, etc. 229 00:10:31,600 --> 00:10:32,120 Speaker 2: That they make. 230 00:10:32,559 --> 00:10:34,520 Speaker 13: You know, the second part of that is when he 231 00:10:34,640 --> 00:10:37,920 Speaker 13: challenged one of the bankers, Yes, don't be hating on 232 00:10:37,960 --> 00:10:41,160 Speaker 13: the Conservatives. Let them open up bank accounts and lend money. 233 00:10:41,360 --> 00:10:43,600 Speaker 13: That's a creed. That's that is a key point there. 234 00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:45,440 Speaker 13: I think a lot of people miss that. During the 235 00:10:45,480 --> 00:10:47,839 Speaker 13: bid administration, I can't tell you how many people came 236 00:10:47,880 --> 00:10:50,200 Speaker 13: to me and text me and dm me on my 237 00:10:50,280 --> 00:10:54,079 Speaker 13: social media pages and said, hey, they're denying my loans. 238 00:10:54,160 --> 00:10:57,000 Speaker 13: I can't prove, but I'm almost sure they're not giving 239 00:10:57,000 --> 00:10:59,800 Speaker 13: me this loan because I'm quote a conservative, I support 240 00:10:59,800 --> 00:11:01,680 Speaker 13: te A lot of that was going on. So I 241 00:11:01,720 --> 00:11:04,200 Speaker 13: commend the President for shooting one across the bow. So 242 00:11:04,280 --> 00:11:06,360 Speaker 13: I think it was the ba B Bank of American 243 00:11:06,400 --> 00:11:09,439 Speaker 13: President and many others, lenders and other people who are 244 00:11:09,440 --> 00:11:13,160 Speaker 13: discriminating other people just because they vote a different way 245 00:11:13,600 --> 00:11:16,360 Speaker 13: or maybe supported President Trump. So kudos once again the 246 00:11:16,440 --> 00:11:19,280 Speaker 13: President Trump.

Sheriff rich Jardino. 271 00:12:29,240 --> 00:12:31,280 Speaker 2: Thank you very much for having me. I appreciate it. 272 00:12:31,240 --> 00:12:32,840 Speaker 10: And I know it's historic that no one's done all 273 00:12:32,880 --> 00:12:35,920 Speaker 10: three sheriffs, so I think that's remarkable, remarkab accomplishment in 274 00:12:35,960 --> 00:12:39,080 Speaker 10: your career. Sheriff ice agents have started making arrest of 275 00:12:39,160 --> 00:12:43,840 Speaker 10: criminal illegal aliens, those with criminal histories of sexual assault, burglary, robbery, 276 00:12:43,880 --> 00:12:46,520 Speaker 10: weapons and drug offenses that have entered the US, and 277 00:12:46,520 --> 00:12:49,920 Speaker 10: that number is already at five hundred. Do you anticipate 278 00:12:49,920 --> 00:12:53,360 Speaker 10: that the arrests of criminal illegals will continue without interference 279 00:12:53,360 --> 00:12:55,839 Speaker 10: from Democrats or do you expect some resistance. 280 00:12:56,200 --> 00:12:58,040 Speaker 2: The arrest you're going to continue because most of them 281 00:12:58,080 --> 00:13:02,319 Speaker 2: based on warrants and that have been outstanding and by 282 00:13:02,559 --> 00:13:05,240 Speaker 2: crimes that were committed in our country. I was at 283 00:13:05,240 --> 00:13:08,320 Speaker 2: a meeting yesterday where we were talking to border patrol agents, 284 00:13:08,400 --> 00:13:13,120 Speaker 2: boots on the ground supervisors. The morale is unbelievably going 285 00:13:13,160 --> 00:13:15,400 Speaker 2: through the roof. They're now being told they can do 286 00:13:15,480 --> 00:13:18,160 Speaker 2: their job what they were hired for. Like all other 287 00:13:18,280 --> 00:13:22,439 Speaker 2: law enforcement agency, they're short staffed, but they are thrilled 288 00:13:22,480 --> 00:13:25,080 Speaker 2: to be able to have the handcuffs taken off of 289 00:13:25,120 --> 00:13:28,400 Speaker 2: them and put them on the illegal immigrants. And they're 290 00:13:28,440 --> 00:13:31,360 Speaker 2: still in the laws as illegal aliens, and they're referring 291 00:13:31,400 --> 00:13:35,840 Speaker 2: to them instead of asylum seekers or job seekers. So 292 00:13:36,360 --> 00:13:39,720 Speaker 2: it's gonna be a renewed push to get first the 293 00:13:39,720 --> 00:13:42,600 Speaker 2: most violent people out. They don't have enough beds at 294 00:13:42,600 --> 00:13:45,160 Speaker 2: this point. So you're going to see a renewed effort. 295 00:13:45,600 --> 00:13:48,120 Speaker 2: In our state, New York, the legislature will do what 296 00:13:48,160 --> 00:13:51,640 Speaker 2: they can to block any initiatives of President Trump, including this. 297 00:13:52,160 --> 00:13:55,240 Speaker 2: They'll put restrictions on what we can house in the jails, 298 00:13:55,800 --> 00:13:59,040 Speaker 2: So they're going to need contracts to house some of 299 00:13:59,080 --> 00:14:02,520 Speaker 2: these individual and we have certain restrictions on who we 300 00:14:02,559 --> 00:14:07,400 Speaker 2: can house in a local jail pending deportation. There has 301 00:14:07,440 --> 00:14:11,199 Speaker 2: to be an appearance before a federal magistrate and immigration 302 00:14:11,280 --> 00:14:13,319 Speaker 2: court before we can detain them. 303 00:14:13,679 --> 00:14:16,160 Speaker 5: Yeah, there are quite a few steps before that actually 304 00:14:16,200 --> 00:14:18,400 Speaker 5: is able to take place. But there are some illegal 305 00:14:18,480 --> 00:14:21,640 Speaker 5: immigrants that are self deporting. Tom Holman has said, if 306 00:14:21,680 --> 00:14:24,560 Speaker 5: you want to self deport, you should because again, we 307 00:14:24,680 --> 00:14:26,680 Speaker 5: know who you are and we are going to come 308 00:14:26,720 --> 00:14:28,920 Speaker 5: and find you. So do you think that many will 309 00:14:28,960 --> 00:14:31,960 Speaker 5: self deport or play the odds of not being found 310 00:14:32,040 --> 00:14:34,840 Speaker 5: try to evade being detected. 311 00:14:35,920 --> 00:14:38,080 Speaker 2: Well, it may send some of them deeper, But I 312 00:14:38,120 --> 00:14:40,880 Speaker 2: agree with Tom Holman. I think you're going to see 313 00:14:41,160 --> 00:14:44,720 Speaker 2: a number of people leaving the country rather than the 314 00:14:44,880 --> 00:14:47,680 Speaker 2: uncertain fate of being scooped up and forced out of 315 00:14:47,720 --> 00:14:51,840 Speaker 2: the country. I think that Tom Holman is a absolute 316 00:14:51,960 --> 00:14:55,080 Speaker 2: best choice the President could have made for this task. 317 00:14:55,480 --> 00:14:58,960 Speaker 2: He has become a target like President Trump, and anything 318 00:14:59,000 --> 00:15:02,280 Speaker 2: they do or to do is met with resistance. I've 319 00:15:02,320 --> 00:15:04,720 Speaker 2: often said, if President Trump walked out on a lake 320 00:15:04,760 --> 00:15:07,720 Speaker 2: to save people in an overturned boat, the headline and 321 00:15:07,760 --> 00:15:10,600 Speaker 2: the CNN and MSNBC would be President goes on a 322 00:15:10,640 --> 00:15:14,160 Speaker 2: lake without a vest on in violation of some rule, 323 00:15:14,200 --> 00:15:18,120 Speaker 2: instead of that he saved anybody. So he's already had resistance. 324 00:15:18,120 --> 00:15:21,120 Speaker 2: And there's already been one federal decision on a fourteenth 325 00:15:21,160 --> 00:15:25,840 Speaker 2: Amendment birthright citizenship, putting a pause on that, and that'll 326 00:15:25,920 --> 00:15:28,520 Speaker 2: go up to the Supreme Court for a full hearing. 327 00:15:28,760 --> 00:15:30,600 Speaker 10: Well, he meant what he said, and Tom Holman meant 328 00:15:30,640 --> 00:15:32,120 Speaker 10: what he said, and that's exactly what we're saying. We 329 00:15:32,160 --> 00:15:34,200 Speaker 10: talked about it earlier, but there's so much transparency in 330 00:15:34,200 --> 00:15:34,880 Speaker 10: this administration. 331 00:15:35,000 --> 00:15:36,760 Speaker 11: Right away, Cheff, I want to get your thoughts. 332 00:15:37,000 --> 00:15:39,960 Speaker 10: The Department of Homeland Security announced in action allowing ICE 333 00:15:40,000 --> 00:15:43,520 Speaker 10: agents to make arrests in sensitive locations such as schools, 334 00:15:43,800 --> 00:15:47,600 Speaker 10: places of worship, and hospitals, saying, quote, this action empowers 335 00:15:47,600 --> 00:15:50,160 Speaker 10: the brave men and women in CPB and ICE to 336 00:15:50,320 --> 00:15:54,120 Speaker 10: enforce our immigration laws and catch criminal aliens, including murderers 337 00:15:54,120 --> 00:15:57,440 Speaker 10: and rapists who have come here illegally into our country. 338 00:15:57,440 --> 00:16:00,880 Speaker 10: In quote, some are against this, what are your thoughts? 339 00:16:02,040 --> 00:16:05,080 Speaker 2: My thoughts are it will see some resistance, especially in 340 00:16:06,200 --> 00:16:08,640 Speaker 2: places of worship and churches which are always been a 341 00:16:08,680 --> 00:16:11,800 Speaker 2: refuge for individuals, but not meant to be a refuge 342 00:16:11,800 --> 00:16:15,560 Speaker 2: to safeguard rapists and murderers, and in other individuals where 343 00:16:15,560 --> 00:16:20,800 Speaker 2: are violent criminals. And so those individuals should know that 344 00:16:21,000 --> 00:16:23,320 Speaker 2: when Tom Holman and the President said that they're going 345 00:16:23,400 --> 00:16:26,400 Speaker 2: to come and find you, they will find you. And 346 00:16:26,440 --> 00:16:30,760 Speaker 2: you can't hide behind a religious institution. For other individuals 347 00:16:30,840 --> 00:16:34,280 Speaker 2: who need comfort and seeking help and care, that you're 348 00:16:34,280 --> 00:16:37,520 Speaker 2: going to see a lot of some pushback, probably to 349 00:16:37,600 --> 00:16:40,640 Speaker 2: prevent that from happening. I don't know if that'll take 350 00:16:40,680 --> 00:16:44,120 Speaker 2: the formal lawsuits or what at this time, but they've 351 00:16:44,160 --> 00:16:46,480 Speaker 2: already a lot of groups have already pledged. They've already 352 00:16:46,480 --> 00:16:50,040 Speaker 2: started proposing legislation in New York to make the job 353 00:16:50,080 --> 00:16:54,520 Speaker 2: of ICE more difficult. We have a green light law 354 00:16:54,560 --> 00:16:56,720 Speaker 2: in New York that if I'm a local police officer 355 00:16:56,760 --> 00:16:59,960 Speaker 2: and we stop someone and they're illegally in the country. 356 00:17:00,080 --> 00:17:03,400 Speaker 2: I can't notify the federal government. It's ridiculous some of 357 00:17:03,440 --> 00:17:06,359 Speaker 2: the rules. So you're going to see more of those 358 00:17:06,440 --> 00:17:10,000 Speaker 2: in the liberal states like ours, the Blue states that 359 00:17:10,040 --> 00:17:14,040 Speaker 2: are going to really try to block President Trump. But 360 00:17:14,200 --> 00:17:17,080 Speaker 2: like you said before, this president has done more in 361 00:17:17,640 --> 00:17:20,840 Speaker 2: the first four days, in the first week than most 362 00:17:20,920 --> 00:17:24,160 Speaker 2: presidents do with executive orders in their term. And he's 363 00:17:24,200 --> 00:17:26,159 Speaker 2: serious about what he said, and I think that's driving 364 00:17:26,200 --> 00:17:30,480 Speaker 2: people crazy because they're not used to politicians running and 365 00:17:30,520 --> 00:17:32,679 Speaker 2: stating what they're going to do and then actually doing it. 366 00:17:32,760 --> 00:17:34,760 Speaker 2: So it's throwing some people into a fit. 367 00:17:35,160 --> 00:17:36,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's a really good point, Sheriff. 368 00:17:36,760 --> 00:17:39,720 Speaker 5: And it's so disappointing to see, you know, some of 369 00:17:39,720 --> 00:17:42,760 Speaker 5: these liberal cities, some of these Democrat leaders pushing back 370 00:17:42,800 --> 00:17:45,399 Speaker 5: on something that is so blatantly a national security concern. 371 00:17:45,480 --> 00:17:47,639 Speaker 5: This has been a crisis at our southern border, and 372 00:17:47,680 --> 00:17:49,560 Speaker 5: President Trump is trying to tackle it. 373 00:17:49,520 --> 00:17:50,360 Speaker 3: From all angles. 374 00:17:50,359 --> 00:17:53,400 Speaker 5: He's using every avenue with these executive orders that he's 375 00:17:53,400 --> 00:17:57,880 Speaker 5: been signing, one of them designating international cartels and organizations 376 00:17:57,880 --> 00:18:01,080 Speaker 5: such as Trendy or Wagua and MS thirteen as foreign 377 00:18:01,160 --> 00:18:05,119 Speaker 5: terrorist organizations, especially designated global terrorists. 378 00:18:05,200 --> 00:18:06,840 Speaker 3: I mean, this just seems like common sense. 379 00:18:06,880 --> 00:18:08,480 Speaker 5: I don't know how over the past four years the 380 00:18:08,480 --> 00:18:10,080 Speaker 5: Biden administration. 381 00:18:09,520 --> 00:18:11,640 Speaker 3: Didn't do this. Walk us through how this is going 382 00:18:11,680 --> 00:18:12,800 Speaker 3: to help the United States. 383 00:18:13,520 --> 00:18:16,440 Speaker 2: This is going to help the United States tremendously. Already 384 00:18:16,560 --> 00:18:20,320 Speaker 2: now we've identified federal government has identified that the cartels 385 00:18:20,600 --> 00:18:24,680 Speaker 2: are in all fifty states, and by making terrorist organizations, 386 00:18:24,720 --> 00:18:28,359 Speaker 2: anyone in this country, whether you're a legal citizen, whether 387 00:18:28,359 --> 00:18:31,000 Speaker 2: you're a resident born here, or whether you're illegal and 388 00:18:31,040 --> 00:18:34,239 Speaker 2: you try to help a cartel, that'll put you in 389 00:18:34,359 --> 00:18:38,199 Speaker 2: jeopardy of being arrested and convicted because it's illegal in 390 00:18:38,200 --> 00:18:43,040 Speaker 2: this country to help cartels the terrorist organizations. So that's 391 00:18:43,040 --> 00:18:45,879 Speaker 2: going to help people. Always focus on the southern border 392 00:18:46,160 --> 00:18:48,600 Speaker 2: in New York and on the northern border. We have 393 00:18:48,720 --> 00:18:53,200 Speaker 2: seen a thousand percent increase in a number of catches 394 00:18:53,240 --> 00:18:55,720 Speaker 2: that we have. So even if they when they catch 395 00:18:55,760 --> 00:18:59,320 Speaker 2: these people within seventy two hours to one hundred and 396 00:18:59,359 --> 00:19:01,600 Speaker 2: twenty four hours, they usually get arraigned and released for 397 00:19:01,600 --> 00:19:04,879 Speaker 2: an apparent state that's years out. So this is going 398 00:19:04,960 --> 00:19:07,800 Speaker 2: to make a big difference in how we operate. I 399 00:19:07,880 --> 00:19:10,200 Speaker 2: do want to take a moment there was a Border 400 00:19:10,280 --> 00:19:13,679 Speaker 2: Patrol agent killed on a Monday, Monday afternoon after the 401 00:19:13,680 --> 00:19:16,880 Speaker 2: President was sworn in in Vermont. And I just want 402 00:19:16,960 --> 00:19:19,600 Speaker 2: to recognize that our thoughts and prayers are with that 403 00:19:19,680 --> 00:19:22,480 Speaker 2: border agent who had stopped the vehicle and they're still 404 00:19:22,520 --> 00:19:27,280 Speaker 2: investigating it, but it appears to be an illegal immigrant 405 00:19:28,320 --> 00:19:29,880 Speaker 2: shot and killed that officer. 406 00:19:30,200 --> 00:19:31,320 Speaker 11: Well, yeah, there you go. 407 00:19:31,359 --> 00:19:33,360 Speaker 10: I mean the you know, the CPBE agents, They put 408 00:19:33,400 --> 00:19:35,720 Speaker 10: their lives on the line literally every single day, but 409 00:19:35,800 --> 00:19:37,879 Speaker 10: this is exactly what their face with. So I appreciate 410 00:19:37,920 --> 00:19:40,320 Speaker 10: you you mentioning that agent because we need do need 411 00:19:40,320 --> 00:19:42,399 Speaker 10: to lift him and his family up in our thoughts 412 00:19:42,400 --> 00:19:44,240 Speaker 10: and prayers.

He's expected to be confirmed 449 00:21:28,920 --> 00:21:32,800 Speaker 5: later today after Democrats' efforts to delay all of these procedures. 450 00:21:32,840 --> 00:21:35,200 Speaker 10: And we want to welcome in former CIA officer Kevin 451 00:21:35,280 --> 00:21:36,879 Speaker 10: Ship to the show for discussion. 452 00:21:37,240 --> 00:21:40,119 Speaker 11: Kevin, thank you for being with us today, Thanks for 453 00:21:40,160 --> 00:21:40,600 Speaker 11: having me. 454 00:21:40,880 --> 00:21:43,440 Speaker 10: Well, Kevin, what changes can we expect to see under 455 00:21:43,520 --> 00:21:45,080 Speaker 10: John Ratcliffe's leadership. 456 00:21:46,760 --> 00:21:51,159 Speaker 9: Well, it's encouraging because, first of all, John Ratcliffe was 457 00:21:51,200 --> 00:21:54,680 Speaker 9: the only intelligence official that defended Donald Trump during the 458 00:21:54,760 --> 00:21:58,679 Speaker 9: Russia collusion hoax and came out against Brennan and the 459 00:21:58,680 --> 00:22:00,399 Speaker 9: rest of them. He came out and said that it 460 00:22:00,440 --> 00:22:03,480 Speaker 9: was false intelligence, it was not accurate when the rest 461 00:22:03,480 --> 00:22:06,480 Speaker 9: of them were trying to push the Russia collusion hoax 462 00:22:06,480 --> 00:22:08,720 Speaker 9: on the American people. So Ratcliffe was the only one 463 00:22:08,720 --> 00:22:11,679 Speaker 9: that said, no, that's not intelligence, that's false first of all. 464 00:22:12,040 --> 00:22:14,080 Speaker 9: Second of all, I understand he had about five years 465 00:22:14,080 --> 00:22:18,200 Speaker 9: in Congress as a good conservative servant. He's a smart man, 466 00:22:18,280 --> 00:22:21,119 Speaker 9: he's a brilliant man. He was Director of National Intelligence 467 00:22:21,119 --> 00:22:24,000 Speaker 9: for about six months, so he understands the system. I 468 00:22:24,000 --> 00:22:25,080 Speaker 9: think he's a perfect. 469 00:22:24,800 --> 00:22:26,880 Speaker 3: Pick absolutely well. 470 00:22:26,920 --> 00:22:30,639 Speaker 5: Once he is confirmed, he'll be replacing CIA Director William Burns, 471 00:22:30,680 --> 00:22:34,160 Speaker 5: who wasn't a perfect picked. He served under the Biden administration, 472 00:22:34,560 --> 00:22:37,000 Speaker 5: but Burns has been credited with playing a significant role 473 00:22:37,040 --> 00:22:41,000 Speaker 5: in negotiating the recent hostage ceasefire deal between Israel and Hamas. 474 00:22:41,520 --> 00:22:45,240 Speaker 5: But with Trump's November victory and his subsequent remarks promising 475 00:22:45,280 --> 00:22:47,560 Speaker 5: that all hell would break out if the hostages were 476 00:22:47,560 --> 00:22:50,679 Speaker 5: not released, do you think the President ultimately played a 477 00:22:50,720 --> 00:22:52,960 Speaker 5: greater role in getting the deal done than Burns? 478 00:22:54,359 --> 00:22:58,320 Speaker 9: Absolutely, no question about it. Burns hadn't had any success 479 00:22:58,400 --> 00:23:01,960 Speaker 9: whatsoever he or the Department State up until Trump made 480 00:23:01,960 --> 00:23:04,399 Speaker 9: that announcement, and then all of a sudden, but a boom, 481 00:23:04,800 --> 00:23:07,320 Speaker 9: here we are. So I think Trump was the impetus 482 00:23:07,320 --> 00:23:10,040 Speaker 9: behind that one hundred percent. And you know, Burns has 483 00:23:10,080 --> 00:23:14,320 Speaker 9: been presiding over a CIA that has been largely puppeting 484 00:23:14,400 --> 00:23:18,360 Speaker 9: Joe Biden and involved in the war in Ukraine, which 485 00:23:18,440 --> 00:23:22,200 Speaker 9: essentially the CIA helped start when it initiated the coup 486 00:23:22,240 --> 00:23:25,520 Speaker 9: in twenty fourteen. John Brennan made several secret trips into 487 00:23:25,640 --> 00:23:28,960 Speaker 9: Ukraine to help start the coup against a democratically elected government. 488 00:23:29,240 --> 00:23:31,800 Speaker 9: The CI had its hands in it with Victoria Newland 489 00:23:32,080 --> 00:23:34,919 Speaker 9: Department State the entire time, and Burns has just continued 490 00:23:34,960 --> 00:23:39,000 Speaker 9: that the CIA always has to have Russia as a boogeyman, 491 00:23:39,080 --> 00:23:41,640 Speaker 9: because without Russia and a Russian threat, it doesn't really 492 00:23:41,680 --> 00:23:44,840 Speaker 9: have much reason to exist as huge as it is. 493 00:23:45,119 --> 00:23:47,199 Speaker 9: So I think Burns is an excellent choice. He's going 494 00:23:47,280 --> 00:23:49,359 Speaker 9: to have to be very careful though, He's going to 495 00:23:49,440 --> 00:23:51,680 Speaker 9: have to watch his back. I remember James Woolsey, who 496 00:23:51,680 --> 00:23:54,240 Speaker 9: I served under for two years. When he came out, 497 00:23:54,320 --> 00:23:56,760 Speaker 9: he said, although he was director of the CIA, they 498 00:23:56,760 --> 00:24:00,119 Speaker 9: didn't tell him anything, and that's what they do many times. 499 00:24:00,160 --> 00:24:02,560 Speaker 9: They insulate the director from operations they don't want the 500 00:24:02,600 --> 00:24:05,399 Speaker 9: director to know about. So he's got to be real 501 00:24:05,480 --> 00:24:07,560 Speaker 9: careful there. And secondly, the knives are going to be out. 502 00:24:07,640 --> 00:24:13,200 Speaker 9: These are career CIA officers, largely narcissistic. They don't believe 503 00:24:13,200 --> 00:24:17,280 Speaker 9: in democracy, even Mike Pompeio said that they don't believe 504 00:24:17,280 --> 00:24:19,760 Speaker 9: in the Constitution. They believe in the expansion of the CIA. 505 00:24:19,920 --> 00:24:22,200 Speaker 9: So he's going to have to be careful because the 506 00:24:22,240 --> 00:24:23,960 Speaker 9: knives are going to be out for him, and I 507 00:24:23,960 --> 00:24:26,800 Speaker 9: would recommend he appointed deputy director of the CI who's 508 00:24:26,800 --> 00:24:29,320 Speaker 9: from the outside, not from the inside. But he's going 509 00:24:29,400 --> 00:24:32,240 Speaker 9: to have one heck of a job beforeming that place, 510 00:24:32,359 --> 00:24:35,159 Speaker 9: and he's going to need the Trump administration to have 511 00:24:35,320 --> 00:24:38,040 Speaker 9: his back because he's up against the monster. 512 00:24:38,520 --> 00:24:39,439 Speaker 11: Without a question, you know. 513 00:24:39,480 --> 00:24:41,560 Speaker 10: And President Trump is getting right to work to set 514 00:24:41,560 --> 00:24:44,679 Speaker 10: our country back on track, signing numerous executive orders on 515 00:24:44,760 --> 00:24:46,840 Speaker 10: day one, and one of those orders, as we mentioned earlier, 516 00:24:46,880 --> 00:24:50,120 Speaker 10: was to revoke security clearances for fifty one INTEL officers 517 00:24:50,119 --> 00:24:53,240 Speaker 10: who discredited the Hunter Biden laptop story. One of them 518 00:24:53,280 --> 00:24:56,280 Speaker 10: was former CIA director John Brennan, who says that Trump's 519 00:24:56,320 --> 00:25:00,600 Speaker 10: decision was quote bizarre and the executive order misrepresented the facts. 520 00:25:00,880 --> 00:25:02,800 Speaker 10: Do you think President Trump made the right move here? 521 00:25:04,400 --> 00:25:07,359 Speaker 9: Somebody pinched me. I think I'm dreaming absolutely. This is 522 00:25:07,400 --> 00:25:09,920 Speaker 9: the first blow to the shadow government CI I've seen 523 00:25:09,960 --> 00:25:13,200 Speaker 9: in over twenty years. And what Brennan is leaving out 524 00:25:13,200 --> 00:25:17,120 Speaker 9: when he's whining about the Hunter Biden laptop, he's forgetting 525 00:25:17,160 --> 00:25:19,760 Speaker 9: that he was behind the Russia collusion hoax and it 526 00:25:19,840 --> 00:25:22,879 Speaker 9: was John Brennan that took false intelligence, leaked it to 527 00:25:22,920 --> 00:25:25,840 Speaker 9: the news media called it intelligence and started the whole 528 00:25:25,880 --> 00:25:29,640 Speaker 9: Russia collusion hoax ball rolling. That in itself is enough 529 00:25:29,640 --> 00:25:32,879 Speaker 9: for him to have his security clearance provoked, if not worse. 530 00:25:32,960 --> 00:25:34,760 Speaker 2: So I couldn't be happier. 531 00:25:35,080 --> 00:25:37,399 Speaker 9: This really gives me a lot of faith that Donald 532 00:25:37,440 --> 00:25:40,960 Speaker 9: Trump is really going to reform the CIA, the shadow 533 00:25:41,000 --> 00:25:43,840 Speaker 9: government as I call it many times. This is very encouraging. 534 00:25:43,880 --> 00:25:45,760 Speaker 9: And we have to understand also too that Booth, John 535 00:25:45,800 --> 00:25:49,560 Speaker 9: Brennan and James Clapper are a current CIA mockingbird in 536 00:25:49,600 --> 00:25:53,680 Speaker 9: that John Brennan is the analyst for MSNBC, James Clapper 537 00:25:53,720 --> 00:25:57,440 Speaker 9: is the analyst for CNN, and they both had direct 538 00:25:57,440 --> 00:26:00,600 Speaker 9: connections to the CIA while they were analysts information to 539 00:26:00,600 --> 00:26:03,119 Speaker 9: the American people. Well, they no longer have that connection 540 00:26:03,200 --> 00:26:05,719 Speaker 9: and that clearance. So I think this is fantastic. 541 00:26:06,320 --> 00:26:08,200 Speaker 5: Well, and I know that you do mention that quite 542 00:26:08,200 --> 00:26:09,640 Speaker 5: a bit in your book, which I want to ask 543 00:26:09,640 --> 00:26:11,960 Speaker 5: you about in a moment. But right before our show started, 544 00:26:12,240 --> 00:26:15,679 Speaker 5: Trump actually signed even more executive orders, this time to 545 00:26:15,760 --> 00:26:20,040 Speaker 5: release classified documents related to the jfk assassination that's expected 546 00:26:20,080 --> 00:26:22,440 Speaker 5: to come in the coming days here saying that it's 547 00:26:22,480 --> 00:26:25,119 Speaker 5: a great public interest. So what do you think that 548 00:26:25,160 --> 00:26:28,360 Speaker 5: we are expected to find out in these documents and 549 00:26:28,440 --> 00:26:29,600 Speaker 5: when do you think we'll see them? 550 00:26:30,840 --> 00:26:35,359 Speaker 9: Well, I guess I got to add some gravity here, 551 00:26:36,760 --> 00:26:38,840 Speaker 9: you know. Do you think that the CIA wants to 552 00:26:39,520 --> 00:26:42,639 Speaker 9: stage decou to kill a sitting president in conjunction with 553 00:26:42,640 --> 00:26:46,800 Speaker 9: the mafia and breaths LBJ. Do you think after they 554 00:26:47,119 --> 00:26:49,960 Speaker 9: committed that murder they're going to store away the files 555 00:26:50,040 --> 00:26:51,879 Speaker 9: in the CIA filed drawers. 556 00:26:52,280 --> 00:26:53,359 Speaker 2: For later review. No. 557 00:26:53,359 --> 00:26:56,480 Speaker 9: No, they destroyed those immediately and threatened everybody that was 558 00:26:56,520 --> 00:26:59,760 Speaker 9: involved immediately, and most of those people are now dead. 559 00:27:00,359 --> 00:27:05,600 Speaker 9: So the real files, the skeleton files, are probably not there. However, 560 00:27:06,240 --> 00:27:11,119 Speaker 9: a really astute intelligence analyst in the financial sector in 561 00:27:11,200 --> 00:27:13,879 Speaker 9: Japan was going through some old CI financial records and 562 00:27:13,960 --> 00:27:19,760 Speaker 9: found the CIA payroll payroll receipts to Oswald Lee Harvey. 563 00:27:19,800 --> 00:27:23,520 Speaker 9: Oswald was on the CI's payroll as an asset. That 564 00:27:23,680 --> 00:27:26,840 Speaker 9: and that was found just by mistake, proves that Oswald 565 00:27:26,920 --> 00:27:29,679 Speaker 9: was working with the CIA. Things like that. Little pieces 566 00:27:29,680 --> 00:27:32,560 Speaker 9: of the puzzle maybe will come out and what's left, 567 00:27:32,680 --> 00:27:35,040 Speaker 9: but I doubt it. You're member with mk Ultra. When 568 00:27:35,040 --> 00:27:38,359 Speaker 9: that was exposed during the Church Committee hearings, the CI 569 00:27:38,440 --> 00:27:43,359 Speaker 9: director then Richard Helms, destroyed ten thousand mk Ultra documents 570 00:27:43,600 --> 00:27:47,000 Speaker 9: before the hearings started. You can bet the CI destroyed 571 00:27:47,119 --> 00:27:50,760 Speaker 9: the documents of the JFK assassination. What we'll find when 572 00:27:50,760 --> 00:27:54,000 Speaker 9: it's released, we'll see, and I hope it should all 573 00:27:54,040 --> 00:27:56,680 Speaker 9: be released because this is a democracy under constitution and 574 00:27:56,720 --> 00:27:59,600 Speaker 9: people have a right to know everything. So it remains 575 00:27:59,640 --> 00:28:01,760 Speaker 9: that we see to be seen what will find. 576 00:28:01,960 --> 00:28:04,399 Speaker 10: But I mean, are you saying that there's really not 577 00:28:04,440 --> 00:28:06,440 Speaker 10: going to be the smoking gun we hope to find 578 00:28:06,440 --> 00:28:08,920 Speaker 10: in these documents that's going to point exactly what I 579 00:28:08,920 --> 00:28:11,320 Speaker 10: think you just contended, which is the CIA might have 580 00:28:11,320 --> 00:28:14,400 Speaker 10: been involved with Oswald to assassinate a living president. 581 00:28:14,440 --> 00:28:16,800 Speaker 11: I mean, is that not going to be spelled out? 582 00:28:16,840 --> 00:28:17,760 Speaker 11: Do you contend? 583 00:28:18,960 --> 00:28:22,200 Speaker 9: I think those documents have been destroyed long ago? Yeah, well, Sad, 584 00:28:22,240 --> 00:28:24,920 Speaker 9: I mean I hate to say that, but do you 585 00:28:24,960 --> 00:28:26,639 Speaker 9: think the CEEI is going to keep files on the 586 00:28:26,640 --> 00:28:28,840 Speaker 9: fact they murdered a president of the United States and 587 00:28:28,880 --> 00:28:31,080 Speaker 9: committed high treason? They're going to file it away at 588 00:28:31,080 --> 00:28:33,600 Speaker 9: a file cabinet down And no, no, they destroyed all 589 00:28:33,600 --> 00:28:36,240 Speaker 9: those files. It'll be interesting to see what's left, but 590 00:28:36,280 --> 00:28:39,240 Speaker 9: the real stuff is gone, just like mk Ultra all 591 00:28:39,320 --> 00:28:42,440 Speaker 9: ten thousand of those documents were destroyed. So the documents 592 00:28:42,480 --> 00:28:45,720 Speaker 9: in the JFK assassination which did involve the CIA, were 593 00:28:45,720 --> 00:28:48,640 Speaker 9: probably destroyed long ago. But let's see what's left. Maybe 594 00:28:48,640 --> 00:28:50,680 Speaker 9: we can find some pieces of the puzzle in those. 595 00:28:50,760 --> 00:28:52,640 Speaker 9: But I think it's wonderful that they're all being released, 596 00:28:52,640 --> 00:28:53,840 Speaker 9: and they all should be released. 597 00:28:54,120 --> 00:28:56,760 Speaker 5: Absolutely, absolutely, Well, a little disappointing if there isn't going 598 00:28:56,800 --> 00:28:59,400 Speaker 5: to be any information that you could have been destroyed, 599 00:28:59,400 --> 00:29:02,800 Speaker 5: butefully this will work to restore trust, you know in 600 00:29:03,200 --> 00:29:06,040 Speaker 5: our three letter agencies. Now, Kevin, in your book, I 601 00:29:06,120 --> 00:29:07,840 Speaker 5: want to I want to talk about your book, Twilight 602 00:29:07,920 --> 00:29:11,400 Speaker 5: of the Shadow Government, How transparency will kill the Deep State. 603 00:29:11,480 --> 00:29:14,320 Speaker 5: You share your perspective on how the CIA has strayed 604 00:29:14,360 --> 00:29:16,600 Speaker 5: far from its original purpose, which of course is to 605 00:29:16,720 --> 00:29:19,880 Speaker 5: provide intelligence to the president. Tell us more about your 606 00:29:19,880 --> 00:29:22,400 Speaker 5: time in the agency and what you believe needs to 607 00:29:22,440 --> 00:29:25,040 Speaker 5: be exposed to the American people. Are you know after 608 00:29:25,080 --> 00:29:27,320 Speaker 5: we expose the JFK documents. 609 00:29:26,880 --> 00:29:29,480 Speaker 3: Are we done? What more needs to be brought to light? 610 00:29:30,600 --> 00:29:31,000 Speaker 2: Yeah? 611 00:29:31,280 --> 00:29:33,600 Speaker 9: And the reason I wrote along with my courageous co 612 00:29:33,640 --> 00:29:36,440 Speaker 9: author Kent Hick and Lively, I wrote from the company 613 00:29:36,480 --> 00:29:38,200 Speaker 9: or excuse me, from the Company of the Shadows of 614 00:29:38,240 --> 00:29:40,240 Speaker 9: my first book, the CI tried to black out and 615 00:29:40,240 --> 00:29:42,600 Speaker 9: then I wrote Twilight of the Shadow Government, How transparency 616 00:29:42,640 --> 00:29:45,720 Speaker 9: woul kill the Deep State? And since the CI redacted 617 00:29:45,800 --> 00:29:49,320 Speaker 9: or blacked out unclassified information and from the Company's shadows 618 00:29:49,360 --> 00:29:51,400 Speaker 9: regarding criminal activity, I knew they were going to do 619 00:29:51,400 --> 00:29:54,200 Speaker 9: that the Twilight of the Shadow Government, So after letting 620 00:29:54,240 --> 00:29:56,120 Speaker 9: the CIA sit on it for three months, I went 621 00:29:56,160 --> 00:29:59,480 Speaker 9: ahead and published it without the CIA's approval. So there's 622 00:29:59,520 --> 00:30:02,240 Speaker 9: information in this book that the CI could not control, 623 00:30:02,280 --> 00:30:05,360 Speaker 9: cannot control now, and could not stop, a lot of 624 00:30:05,360 --> 00:30:09,680 Speaker 9: which reveals illegal covert programs the CI conducted and funded 625 00:30:09,720 --> 00:30:13,320 Speaker 9: them without Congress's knowledge by running drugs and arms. So 626 00:30:13,640 --> 00:30:16,480 Speaker 9: there's some explosive things in the book that otherwise wouldn't 627 00:30:16,520 --> 00:30:18,240 Speaker 9: have made it to the American people. And that was 628 00:30:18,760 --> 00:30:19,880 Speaker 9: the goal, that was the mission. 629 00:30:20,440 --> 00:30:22,800 Speaker 10: Well, in your book you discussed Project Mockingbird. That's a 630 00:30:22,800 --> 00:30:26,040 Speaker 10: big one, and how the CIA manipulated journalist and the media. 631 00:30:26,720 --> 00:30:29,080 Speaker 10: How prevalent has that been in recent years, and with 632 00:30:29,120 --> 00:30:31,720 Speaker 10: so many people switching to social and digital platforms to 633 00:30:31,760 --> 00:30:33,840 Speaker 10: get their news, do you think the American people finally 634 00:30:34,040 --> 00:30:37,680 Speaker 10: had their eyes open to the deception of the mainstream media. 635 00:30:38,120 --> 00:30:38,600 Speaker 2: Yes they do. 636 00:30:39,120 --> 00:30:43,400 Speaker 9: They're starting. And remember John Brennan was the analyst for MSNBC. 637 00:30:43,680 --> 00:30:46,720 Speaker 9: As I mentioned in James Clapper, the analyst for CNN, 638 00:30:47,040 --> 00:30:49,760 Speaker 9: talk about the CI mockingbird, you know, right in everybody's 639 00:30:49,760 --> 00:30:52,640 Speaker 9: faces and plane view, feeding information right from the top. 640 00:30:53,000 --> 00:30:56,400 Speaker 9: But Mockingbird is still alive and well today there's still 641 00:30:57,240 --> 00:30:59,320 Speaker 9: for example, the Washington Posts and New York Times and 642 00:30:59,360 --> 00:31:02,800 Speaker 9: others are stories by the CIA. And they even tried 643 00:31:02,800 --> 00:31:05,120 Speaker 9: this with Tucker Cross and threatened him with the rest 644 00:31:05,440 --> 00:31:08,000 Speaker 9: because he was publishing or talking about negative things to 645 00:31:08,040 --> 00:31:10,920 Speaker 9: the CIA. They're still threatening journalists, and they have a 646 00:31:10,960 --> 00:31:14,600 Speaker 9: kind of a quid pro quo with editors. You keep 647 00:31:15,040 --> 00:31:17,400 Speaker 9: reporting favorably on the CIA, and the CI will keep 648 00:31:17,400 --> 00:31:20,200 Speaker 9: giving you little tidbits to break stories. And we have 649 00:31:20,240 --> 00:31:22,520 Speaker 9: to think, when's the last time we saw an investigative 650 00:31:22,560 --> 00:31:25,320 Speaker 9: journalist with one of the major legacy medias do an 651 00:31:25,360 --> 00:31:28,760 Speaker 9: investigative report, a real one on the CIA? How about never? 652 00:31:29,560 --> 00:31:31,880 Speaker 9: Well there's a reason for that. Journalists are told that 653 00:31:31,920 --> 00:31:34,719 Speaker 9: their career is over. Remember Gary Webb who wound up 654 00:31:34,960 --> 00:31:37,400 Speaker 9: dead with two shots in the head, ruined his family, 655 00:31:37,480 --> 00:31:40,240 Speaker 9: his career and everything else. Most journalists don't want to 656 00:31:40,000 --> 00:31:45,280 Speaker 9: touch it, so the CI still controls the media, including Hollywood. Argo. 657 00:31:45,400 --> 00:31:48,040 Speaker 9: The movie Argo, the script was written in part by 658 00:31:48,080 --> 00:31:50,160 Speaker 9: the CIA, but made it look like the CI where 659 00:31:50,160 --> 00:31:51,240 Speaker 9: the heroes went in reality. 660 00:31:51,880 --> 00:31:53,240 Speaker 10: We st had more time with you, Kevin, but we 661 00:31:53,280 --> 00:31:55,800 Speaker 10: really appreciate you and all the enlighten you gave us today. 662 00:31:55,840 --> 00:31:56,400 Speaker 11: Thanks so much. 663 00:31:56,680 --> 00:32:19,000 Speaker 6: Thank me right back, Welcome back to your special report. 664 00:32:19,080 --> 00:32:20,360 Speaker 5: We want to take a look at some of the 665 00:32:20,360 --> 00:32:23,480 Speaker 5: top stories throughout the US right now. Over the last week, 666 00:32:23,560 --> 00:32:26,640 Speaker 5: senators have been busy questioning President Trump's nominees for key 667 00:32:26,720 --> 00:32:30,200 Speaker 5: cabinet positions, and Marco Rubio was the first to be 668 00:32:30,320 --> 00:32:33,600 Speaker 5: confirmed in his new role of Secretary of State this week. 669 00:32:33,920 --> 00:32:37,040 Speaker 5: He participated in a swearing in ceremony with Vice President JD. 670 00:32:37,160 --> 00:32:38,120 Speaker 3: Vance on Tuesday. 671 00:32:38,440 --> 00:32:41,400 Speaker 5: But today there's been some new developments that suggest that 672 00:32:41,440 --> 00:32:44,680 Speaker 5: Trump's pick for Secretary of Defense, Pete Hegseth, may be 673 00:32:44,800 --> 00:32:48,840 Speaker 5: losing some support among Republicans in the Senate. They had 674 00:32:48,920 --> 00:32:51,600 Speaker 5: a test vote today that was some breaking news. Right 675 00:32:51,600 --> 00:32:55,480 Speaker 5: before our show here on Real America's Voice, two Republicans, 676 00:32:56,040 --> 00:32:59,480 Speaker 5: Lisa Murkowski and the Senator from Maine Susan Collins. They 677 00:32:59,480 --> 00:33:02,720 Speaker 5: both vote against hag Seth. We know now that the 678 00:33:02,760 --> 00:33:06,120 Speaker 5: official confirmation vote is expected to be on Friday, so 679 00:33:06,200 --> 00:33:08,520 Speaker 5: we will be keeping a very close eye on that. 680 00:33:08,600 --> 00:33:10,240 Speaker 5: I want you to take a look at this lengthy 681 00:33:10,240 --> 00:33:13,960 Speaker 5: post on X Today from Republican Senator Lisa Murkowski, where 682 00:33:14,000 --> 00:33:16,720 Speaker 5: she was indicating that she would be voting against hag 683 00:33:16,800 --> 00:33:21,600 Speaker 5: Seth's nomination. She cited significant concerns about his past infidelity, 684 00:33:21,920 --> 00:33:26,120 Speaker 5: allegations of sexual assault, and claims of excessive drinking. Bo Michelle, 685 00:33:26,160 --> 00:33:28,320 Speaker 5: I do want to get your thoughts on this. How 686 00:33:28,360 --> 00:33:30,960 Speaker 5: did you guys think that Hegseth did while he was 687 00:33:30,960 --> 00:33:32,480 Speaker 5: being questioned by senators. 688 00:33:32,760 --> 00:33:35,840 Speaker 10: I thought he handled it with great fortitude, and I 689 00:33:35,880 --> 00:33:38,480 Speaker 10: think he was prepared. I just thought that this roadbump 690 00:33:38,520 --> 00:33:40,560 Speaker 10: was going to happen. I really kind of anticipated. You 691 00:33:40,560 --> 00:33:42,600 Speaker 10: look at what happened with Matt Gates withdrawing before he 692 00:33:42,640 --> 00:33:44,400 Speaker 10: even got there, he would have been obliterated. 693 00:33:44,440 --> 00:33:45,040 Speaker 11: I really think so. 694 00:33:45,240 --> 00:33:48,080 Speaker 10: But when you have these two Republicans and they are females, Michelle, 695 00:33:48,080 --> 00:33:50,480 Speaker 10: and they're also two Republicans who have bucked the system 696 00:33:50,520 --> 00:33:53,040 Speaker 10: a lot of times, I can't say I'm that surprised. 697 00:33:53,240 --> 00:33:55,880 Speaker 8: Well, it's ironic because they voted for Lloyd Austin, who 698 00:33:55,960 --> 00:34:00,000 Speaker 8: admitted that he had no regrets about the botched Afghanistan withdrawal, 699 00:34:00,080 --> 00:34:04,040 Speaker 8: which again that was American blood on the Biden administration's hands. 700 00:34:04,240 --> 00:34:05,240 Speaker 11: They voted for him. 701 00:34:05,480 --> 00:34:08,760 Speaker 8: However, this of course, they're still citing the concerns over 702 00:34:09,040 --> 00:34:11,719 Speaker 8: his past and his character. At the end of the day, 703 00:34:12,080 --> 00:34:14,920 Speaker 8: I as a woman, I will say this, playing devil's advocate, 704 00:34:15,000 --> 00:34:19,759 Speaker 8: I can understand the infidelity concerns, But similar to what 705 00:34:19,960 --> 00:34:22,520 Speaker 8: many people have said about President Trump of not asking 706 00:34:22,600 --> 00:34:24,279 Speaker 8: him to teach Sunday school. I'm sure you guys have 707 00:34:24,360 --> 00:34:27,239 Speaker 8: heard that quote before, is he qualified to do the job. 708 00:34:27,280 --> 00:34:28,960 Speaker 8: And at the end of the day, yes, he is 709 00:34:29,000 --> 00:34:32,480 Speaker 8: one hundred percent qualified to do this job. And all 710 00:34:32,520 --> 00:34:35,080 Speaker 8: you have to look at is his resume and his standing. 711 00:34:35,400 --> 00:34:37,800 Speaker 8: And I'll say this too, I mean he was drilled 712 00:34:38,000 --> 00:34:41,239 Speaker 8: during these hearings, he really was, and I thought he 713 00:34:41,280 --> 00:34:44,040 Speaker 8: handled it well as you would in that situation. 714 00:34:44,200 --> 00:34:46,600 Speaker 5: And something he continued to say is that those allegations 715 00:34:46,600 --> 00:34:48,640 Speaker 5: against him were simply a smear campaign. 716 00:34:48,880 --> 00:34:52,000 Speaker 3: That's what his lawyers were saying this week after Hex's ex. 717 00:34:51,880 --> 00:34:55,160 Speaker 5: Sister in law submitted a sworn AFFI David trying to 718 00:34:55,160 --> 00:34:57,400 Speaker 5: say that he was abusive to his ex. 719 00:34:57,239 --> 00:34:59,799 Speaker 8: Wife, and that came out that she was a bi 720 00:35:00,040 --> 00:35:02,200 Speaker 8: supported a huge Trump pater as well. It came out 721 00:35:02,239 --> 00:35:05,600 Speaker 8: actually that I believe it wasn't it the brother in 722 00:35:05,680 --> 00:35:06,480 Speaker 8: law it was. 723 00:35:06,840 --> 00:35:09,120 Speaker 5: It's very interesting to see all of this coming out 724 00:35:09,440 --> 00:35:10,880 Speaker 5: just kind of on the one yard line of that 725 00:35:10,920 --> 00:35:13,160 Speaker 5: confirmation vote that we're expecting to see that we know 726 00:35:13,239 --> 00:35:15,920 Speaker 5: now is going to happen on Friday. It might have 727 00:35:16,040 --> 00:35:18,040 Speaker 5: swayed these two female. 728 00:35:17,719 --> 00:35:20,279 Speaker 3: Republican senators to vote against him today. I guess we 729 00:35:20,280 --> 00:35:20,880 Speaker 3: shall see. 730 00:35:20,960 --> 00:35:23,000 Speaker 8: Well, I'll tell you what, primaries are going to be 731 00:35:23,120 --> 00:35:26,200 Speaker 8: very interesting and gentlemen, because the American people are not 732 00:35:26,239 --> 00:35:28,880 Speaker 8: going to forget that. And the goal ultimately is to 733 00:35:28,920 --> 00:35:31,719 Speaker 8: confirm Trump's picks, to confirm his agenda and. 734 00:35:31,680 --> 00:35:32,600 Speaker 3: Advance it forward. 735 00:35:32,760 --> 00:35:35,040 Speaker 8: And if that's not happening, they want to let people 736 00:35:35,040 --> 00:35:36,920 Speaker 8: who are going to do it. So I imagine she's 737 00:35:36,920 --> 00:35:38,359 Speaker 8: going to get primaried pretty soon here. 738 00:35:38,480 --> 00:35:39,400 Speaker 3: Yes, I think you're correct. 739 00:35:39,440 --> 00:35:42,760 Speaker 8: Well, speaking of promises made, promises kept, because ice rates 740 00:35:42,800 --> 00:35:45,440 Speaker 8: continue happening today all of our major cities. 741 00:35:45,440 --> 00:35:47,280 Speaker 11: I want you to take a listen to what one. 742 00:35:47,480 --> 00:35:51,759 Speaker 8: A legal Haitian gang member with oh seventeen convictions, had 743 00:35:51,800 --> 00:35:53,640 Speaker 8: to say as he was being arrested. 744 00:35:54,400 --> 00:35:58,840 Speaker 4: So you feel me, no pride, bro, thank Obama for 745 00:35:59,000 --> 00:36:00,560 Speaker 4: everything that he picked gold on. 746 00:36:01,200 --> 00:36:01,560 Speaker 3: All right. 747 00:36:01,960 --> 00:36:03,719 Speaker 8: I'm not sure if you heard that, but basically he 748 00:36:03,800 --> 00:36:06,360 Speaker 8: was cheering on Joe Biden. A lot of bleeps with 749 00:36:06,400 --> 00:36:07,160 Speaker 8: the profanity. 750 00:36:07,640 --> 00:36:07,920 Speaker 3: Guys. 751 00:36:07,920 --> 00:36:10,719 Speaker 8: This is just one arrest of many, and as jd 752 00:36:10,840 --> 00:36:14,040 Speaker 8: Vance and President Trump had said, they're going after criminals first. 753 00:36:14,040 --> 00:36:15,800 Speaker 8: Your reaction to all of this, Yeah. 754 00:36:15,600 --> 00:36:17,440 Speaker 5: It's you know, it's very similar to see because you 755 00:36:17,520 --> 00:36:19,440 Speaker 5: heard a lot of those chants, you know, pro Biden 756 00:36:19,560 --> 00:36:21,399 Speaker 5: chants of all the people that were coming in through 757 00:36:21,440 --> 00:36:24,000 Speaker 5: the southern border, this invasion that we've seen over the. 758 00:36:23,960 --> 00:36:24,800 Speaker 3: Past few years. 759 00:36:24,960 --> 00:36:27,320 Speaker 5: It's interesting to see that they still support him even 760 00:36:27,400 --> 00:36:28,720 Speaker 5: now that they're being deported. 761 00:36:28,840 --> 00:36:30,120 Speaker 10: And I think there's going to be a lot more 762 00:36:30,160 --> 00:36:32,600 Speaker 10: expletive thrown at President Trump, guys. 763 00:36:32,600 --> 00:36:36,040 Speaker 11: And you know what from you going here?

You're endangering our citizens, 769 00:36:46,000 --> 00:36:46,960 Speaker 10: you're endangering our women. 770 00:36:47,280 --> 00:36:47,840 Speaker 11: You gotta go. 771 00:36:48,040 --> 00:36:49,960 Speaker 10: And I think that's why, exactly why Tom Holman is 772 00:36:49,960 --> 00:36:51,279 Speaker 10: doing exactly what he said he was going to. 773 00:36:51,280 --> 00:36:52,560 Speaker 11: Do, and he should absolutely. 774 00:36:52,600 --> 00:36:54,520 Speaker 5: I'm just impressed to see how quickly this is all 775 00:36:54,560 --> 00:36:57,080 Speaker 5: getting done.

At the time, 778 00:37:00,960 --> 00:37:02,640 Speaker 5: it seemed like they still had a lot of things 779 00:37:02,640 --> 00:37:03,120 Speaker 5: to work out. 780 00:37:03,160 --> 00:37:05,760 Speaker 3: But my gosh, on day one already starting the raids. 781 00:37:06,000 --> 00:37:06,280 Speaker 11: Yeah. 782 00:37:06,360 --> 00:37:07,600 Speaker 10: Yeah, And it's so interesting to me, Like you think 783 00:37:07,600 --> 00:37:10,239 Speaker 10: about the Hollywood Times Up movement times up guys, you know, 784 00:37:10,239 --> 00:37:12,319 Speaker 10: I mean, and it should be for these people. If 785 00:37:12,400 --> 00:37:14,120 Speaker 10: you come here and you commit these types of crimes, 786 00:37:14,160 --> 00:37:16,120 Speaker 10: you take advantage of our country, you take advantage of 787 00:37:16,160 --> 00:37:16,640 Speaker 10: everything that. 788 00:37:16,600 --> 00:37:17,360 Speaker 11: We have to offer. 789 00:37:17,760 --> 00:37:19,520 Speaker 10: Then you got to go, and you shouldn't have been 790 00:37:19,560 --> 00:37:21,319 Speaker 10: here to begin with.

Those promises 792 00:37:24,800 --> 00:37:27,200 Speaker 10: are being kept. It's being put into action right now 793 00:37:27,239 --> 00:37:27,759 Speaker 10: as we speak. 794 00:37:27,800 --> 00:37:29,800 Speaker 8: Then, you know, guys, I saw a video this morning 795 00:37:30,400 --> 00:37:33,840 Speaker 8: of an underserved African American community actually turning in illegals 796 00:37:33,880 --> 00:37:36,560 Speaker 8: because they're sick of all the resources going to illegals 797 00:37:36,800 --> 00:37:39,800 Speaker 8: and not American citizens.

Cybersecurity will undoubtedly be 827 00:39:20,960 --> 00:39:23,839 Speaker 10: a focus of this new Trump term, especially as our 828 00:39:23,880 --> 00:39:26,600 Speaker 10: adversaries aim to take an edge on the United States, 829 00:39:26,640 --> 00:39:30,560 Speaker 10: with China likely being a prime suspect with mysterious drones 830 00:39:30,600 --> 00:39:33,280 Speaker 10: on the East Coast, a spy balloon, and other ways 831 00:39:33,280 --> 00:39:37,320 Speaker 10: to infiltrate and hack into our grids. Cybersecurity is a necessity, 832 00:39:37,480 --> 00:39:37,839 Speaker 10: that's right. 833 00:39:37,920 --> 00:39:40,640 Speaker 5: Nate Kane is a military veteran and an expert in 834 00:39:40,680 --> 00:39:44,040 Speaker 5: cybersecurity for twenty seven years, and was even called on 835 00:39:44,120 --> 00:39:46,840 Speaker 5: as a cyber forensic expert in the first Trump term. 836 00:39:47,120 --> 00:39:49,680 Speaker 5: He now hosts The Raising Kine Show, and we welcome 837 00:39:49,760 --> 00:39:51,160 Speaker 5: him now to Special Report. 838 00:39:51,200 --> 00:39:54,160 Speaker 10: Thanks for being with us, Nate, thank you for having 839 00:39:54,200 --> 00:39:57,640 Speaker 10: me well, Nate, So you're a cybersecurity expert, and I 840 00:39:57,680 --> 00:40:01,319 Speaker 10: think we all want to know the reality of China's capabilities, 841 00:40:01,360 --> 00:40:03,719 Speaker 10: So tell us the depth of it and what we 842 00:40:03,760 --> 00:40:05,000 Speaker 10: should be concerned about. 843 00:40:05,960 --> 00:40:11,279 Speaker 14: Sure, So, China has a very very large military background, 844 00:40:11,320 --> 00:40:14,319 Speaker 14: with a lot of teams that are available to them, 845 00:40:14,800 --> 00:40:16,839 Speaker 14: and one of the things that they do that's kind 846 00:40:16,880 --> 00:40:20,400 Speaker 14: of unique is they have somewhat a level of autonomy 847 00:40:20,960 --> 00:40:23,960 Speaker 14: and that allows them to do things really without permission 848 00:40:24,000 --> 00:40:26,320 Speaker 14: from the Chinese government, and it is a it's a 849 00:40:26,360 --> 00:40:29,120 Speaker 14: real threat. It's something that I think we have to 850 00:40:29,160 --> 00:40:31,880 Speaker 14: be concerned about. One of the problems that we have 851 00:40:31,960 --> 00:40:35,879 Speaker 14: in our country is that our infrastructure, our IT infrastructure 852 00:40:35,880 --> 00:40:39,640 Speaker 14: in particular, really was put in place long before a 853 00:40:39,640 --> 00:40:43,799 Speaker 14: lot of the cyber threats existed that exist today. So 854 00:40:43,840 --> 00:40:46,839 Speaker 14: you have some places that actually you would not think 855 00:40:46,880 --> 00:40:52,160 Speaker 14: of that have much better IT infrastructure, places like Eastern Europe, 856 00:40:52,600 --> 00:40:56,960 Speaker 14: but they have very very advanced capabilities in terms of 857 00:40:57,200 --> 00:40:59,120 Speaker 14: high speed internet and that sort of thing. But we've 858 00:40:59,120 --> 00:41:03,600 Speaker 14: got a lot of old, antiquated equipment, and we also 859 00:41:03,719 --> 00:41:07,120 Speaker 14: have a lot of systems SKATA in particular in ICs 860 00:41:07,400 --> 00:41:11,880 Speaker 14: industrial controlled systems which were not developed with the intent 861 00:41:11,960 --> 00:41:13,640 Speaker 14: of being hooked up to the Internet, but they have 862 00:41:13,760 --> 00:41:17,480 Speaker 14: been hooked up so that things can be remotely monitored 863 00:41:17,520 --> 00:41:19,520 Speaker 14: and that sort of thing. And this has created all 864 00:41:19,640 --> 00:41:23,160 Speaker 14: kinds of new vectors for cybersecurity attacks, and so things 865 00:41:23,239 --> 00:41:28,160 Speaker 14: like our water treatment plants, are power grid, are food 866 00:41:28,200 --> 00:41:30,480 Speaker 14: manufacturing plants. Anything is game. 867 00:41:31,200 --> 00:41:34,080 Speaker 5: Absolutely, and we've seen just time and time again China 868 00:41:34,160 --> 00:41:39,240 Speaker 5: trying to infiltrate our digital platforms. Definitely some cybersecurity concerns there, 869 00:41:39,440 --> 00:41:41,480 Speaker 5: So I want to get your thoughts on this. Everyone's 870 00:41:41,520 --> 00:41:44,960 Speaker 5: been talking about the future of TikTok recently. I understand 871 00:41:44,960 --> 00:41:47,560 Speaker 5: that the algorithm Bite Dance uses is what makes TikTok 872 00:41:47,640 --> 00:41:51,000 Speaker 5: so great, but it also involves sharing intel with the CCP. 873 00:41:51,160 --> 00:41:53,759 Speaker 5: I mean, all Chinese companies have to do this. They 874 00:41:53,760 --> 00:41:56,520 Speaker 5: have to share information with their government if they're required to. 875 00:41:56,880 --> 00:41:59,520 Speaker 3: So does that mean that it poses a national security threat? 876 00:41:59,560 --> 00:42:01,400 Speaker 3: What do you think I should happen with TikTok in 877 00:42:01,440 --> 00:42:02,200 Speaker 3: the United States? 878 00:42:03,280 --> 00:42:05,200 Speaker 14: I certainly do think that we do have to be 879 00:42:05,239 --> 00:42:07,960 Speaker 14: concerned about these things. In China, they have what's called 880 00:42:08,040 --> 00:42:11,759 Speaker 14: the Thousand Grains of Sand Intelligence operation, which basically the 881 00:42:11,800 --> 00:42:15,880 Speaker 14: government has made it a requirement for any company that 882 00:42:15,960 --> 00:42:20,400 Speaker 14: has ties to them, they are any Chinese national that 883 00:42:20,680 --> 00:42:24,640 Speaker 14: has ties to them has to collect intelligence for the 884 00:42:24,719 --> 00:42:27,440 Speaker 14: Chinese Communist Party. And one of the concerns that we 885 00:42:27,480 --> 00:42:29,800 Speaker 14: should think about is not just TikTok, but think about 886 00:42:30,239 --> 00:42:32,200 Speaker 14: You've got all of these h one B visas that 887 00:42:32,239 --> 00:42:34,680 Speaker 14: we've allowed people to come into this country and work 888 00:42:34,719 --> 00:42:39,720 Speaker 14: for places like Microsoft and Oracle and Amazon and Google. 889 00:42:40,040 --> 00:42:41,839 Speaker 14: And the fact is is you can go and look 890 00:42:41,880 --> 00:42:45,239 Speaker 14: and see how many of those people. There are some 891 00:42:45,360 --> 00:42:47,359 Speaker 14: reports that come out that show that quite a few 892 00:42:47,360 --> 00:42:50,920 Speaker 14: of them are at those companies that are from China, 893 00:42:51,239 --> 00:42:54,279 Speaker 14: that are actually Chinese nationals. When you think about the 894 00:42:54,320 --> 00:42:57,640 Speaker 14: fact that all of those technologies companies that I just named, 895 00:42:58,120 --> 00:43:01,960 Speaker 14: they have equipment that is in just about every federal 896 00:43:02,000 --> 00:43:05,640 Speaker 14: government building, that should be a concern to all of us. 897 00:43:05,960 --> 00:43:08,440 Speaker 14: And so I have concerns that we're not doing enough. 898 00:43:08,760 --> 00:43:12,120 Speaker 14: I think CISA, who has the responsibility for this, has 899 00:43:12,200 --> 00:43:14,839 Speaker 14: ultimately failed us. They've spent the majority of the last 900 00:43:14,880 --> 00:43:20,160 Speaker 14: four years focusing on disinformation campaigns and censorship rather than 901 00:43:20,160 --> 00:43:23,880 Speaker 14: focusing on what the charter of their purpose was really 902 00:43:24,000 --> 00:43:27,960 Speaker 14: meant to do, which was to look at our national 903 00:43:28,040 --> 00:43:30,360 Speaker 14: critical infrastructure and making sure to keep it safe. 904 00:43:30,680 --> 00:43:32,520 Speaker 10: Sounds to me, based on what you just said, that 905 00:43:32,680 --> 00:43:35,120 Speaker 10: TikTok is the least of our worries. I mean, not nothing, 906 00:43:35,200 --> 00:43:36,600 Speaker 10: but I mean it sounds like there's a lot more 907 00:43:36,600 --> 00:43:39,600 Speaker 10: at stake. Well, Kashpttel will be having his confirmation hearing 908 00:43:39,640 --> 00:43:42,239 Speaker 10: next week. He clearly has a tough job ahead with 909 00:43:42,280 --> 00:43:45,560 Speaker 10: the FBI. You've been an FBI whistleblower with respect to 910 00:43:45,600 --> 00:43:49,440 Speaker 10: retaliation and Hillary Clinton that the FBI was investigating. You 911 00:43:49,520 --> 00:43:52,160 Speaker 10: brought forth evidence, and you say that the FBI covered 912 00:43:52,200 --> 00:43:52,480 Speaker 10: it up. 913 00:43:52,640 --> 00:43:53,560 Speaker 11: Tell us what happened. 914 00:43:54,600 --> 00:43:59,040 Speaker 14: Sure, So in twenty seventeen twenty eighteen, I was working 915 00:43:59,080 --> 00:44:04,279 Speaker 14: at the FBI. I was a contractor information security and 916 00:44:04,760 --> 00:44:08,279 Speaker 14: my job was basically to architect, design, and set up 917 00:44:08,360 --> 00:44:12,680 Speaker 14: the vulnerability management systems across the FBI. I ended up 918 00:44:12,760 --> 00:44:16,600 Speaker 14: finding out that there was credible evidence that the FBI 919 00:44:16,760 --> 00:44:20,799 Speaker 14: had and I when I first heard a rumor that 920 00:44:20,840 --> 00:44:23,200 Speaker 14: they were going to cover it up, I didn't take 921 00:44:23,239 --> 00:44:25,400 Speaker 14: it too seriously, but I did look to see if 922 00:44:25,400 --> 00:44:27,320 Speaker 14: there was any evidence of that, and there was plenty 923 00:44:27,320 --> 00:44:30,920 Speaker 14: of evidence that they were investigating her on multiple crimes, 924 00:44:31,000 --> 00:44:35,320 Speaker 14: namely money laundering, public corruption, securities in exchange, fraud, and 925 00:44:35,400 --> 00:44:39,880 Speaker 14: terrorism financing. What ended up happening, though, was you'll remember 926 00:44:39,920 --> 00:44:43,200 Speaker 14: that speech that Comy came out and gave about her 927 00:44:43,239 --> 00:44:46,920 Speaker 14: email server, where he basically discussed all of the classified 928 00:44:46,960 --> 00:44:49,080 Speaker 14: documents that were on her email server that was a 929 00:44:49,120 --> 00:44:53,120 Speaker 14: private email server in her home. When he said that, 930 00:44:53,400 --> 00:44:57,760 Speaker 14: and he even mentioned that there were seven email chains 931 00:44:57,880 --> 00:45:01,000 Speaker 14: with special access programs, which typically these are programs that 932 00:45:01,000 --> 00:45:05,080 Speaker 14: are compartmentalized above top secret, and he said that there 933 00:45:05,160 --> 00:45:09,080 Speaker 14: was no reasonable prosecutor that would bring a case against her. Immediately, 934 00:45:09,120 --> 00:45:10,839 Speaker 14: That's when I knew that the rumors that they were 935 00:45:10,840 --> 00:45:13,640 Speaker 14: going to cover up her crimes were true, and so 936 00:45:13,800 --> 00:45:16,120 Speaker 14: I made a decision, a very difficult one, but I 937 00:45:16,239 --> 00:45:19,960 Speaker 14: carried it out in accordance with the law. I brought 938 00:45:20,000 --> 00:45:23,160 Speaker 14: documents out, and I brought them to the House Permanent 939 00:45:23,200 --> 00:45:26,320 Speaker 14: Select Committee on Intelligence and Senate Select Committee on Intelligence 940 00:45:26,960 --> 00:45:32,480 Speaker 14: through the dojig. In about four months after I completed 941 00:45:32,800 --> 00:45:37,319 Speaker 14: my disclosure, I was raided by the FBI and put 942 00:45:37,400 --> 00:45:41,520 Speaker 14: through quite an ordeal, including my kids and my family, 943 00:45:41,560 --> 00:45:45,480 Speaker 14: our reputation. They leaked our names. You know my name 944 00:45:45,520 --> 00:45:48,760 Speaker 14: to the press and you know it was just something 945 00:45:48,800 --> 00:45:51,280 Speaker 14: that should never have happened, And in fact, Chuck Rassley 946 00:45:51,560 --> 00:45:55,240 Speaker 14: had demanded answers from Director Ray and never got those answers. 947 00:45:55,600 --> 00:45:57,920 Speaker 5: Well, I'm so sorry to hear that that happened to you, 948 00:45:57,960 --> 00:46:00,440 Speaker 5: and I admire your bravery for speaking out on all 949 00:46:00,440 --> 00:46:03,160 Speaker 5: of this. How the mainstream media wasn't covering these cover 950 00:46:03,280 --> 00:46:06,640 Speaker 5: ups more is just absolutely beyond me. And hopefully Cash 951 00:46:06,640 --> 00:46:09,400 Speaker 5: Bettel will be able to clean house at the FBI. 952 00:46:09,520 --> 00:46:11,400 Speaker 3: But what is that going to look like? 953 00:46:11,480 --> 00:46:14,200 Speaker 5: How can we scrub the agency of agents that have 954 00:46:14,280 --> 00:46:17,640 Speaker 5: political motives that are willing to cover up important information 955 00:46:17,800 --> 00:46:18,080 Speaker 5: like this. 956 00:46:19,600 --> 00:46:22,120 Speaker 14: Well, you know, you can't necessarily go after people just 957 00:46:22,160 --> 00:46:25,239 Speaker 14: because they're Democrats or they're Republicans. You know, we want 958 00:46:25,280 --> 00:46:27,799 Speaker 14: to avoid that sort of thing. But one of the 959 00:46:27,840 --> 00:46:30,520 Speaker 14: things that I think Cash needs to do, and I 960 00:46:30,560 --> 00:46:33,279 Speaker 14: hope that he, you know, he will make this a priority, 961 00:46:33,600 --> 00:46:36,520 Speaker 14: is there are tools things like section seven oh two 962 00:46:36,600 --> 00:46:40,080 Speaker 14: of FIZA that have been abused multiple times by the FBI. 963 00:46:40,719 --> 00:46:44,160 Speaker 14: There were one hundreds of thousands of cases that were 964 00:46:44,640 --> 00:46:48,719 Speaker 14: brought forward by federal judges where they said that these 965 00:46:48,760 --> 00:46:51,759 Speaker 14: tools which are meant for foreign intelligence, not meant for 966 00:46:51,800 --> 00:46:57,440 Speaker 14: American citizens were used against American citizens illegally. That's deprivation 967 00:46:57,560 --> 00:46:59,760 Speaker 14: of rights under color of law. It is a felony, 968 00:47:00,160 --> 00:47:02,319 Speaker 14: And what I believe needs to happen is there need 969 00:47:02,360 --> 00:47:05,360 Speaker 14: to be consequences for those things. Most of those people 970 00:47:05,840 --> 00:47:08,640 Speaker 14: at the FBI who were using these tools illegally were 971 00:47:08,680 --> 00:47:12,440 Speaker 14: using them against people related to January sixth. They were 972 00:47:12,480 --> 00:47:14,880 Speaker 14: also using them though, against some people who were at 973 00:47:14,920 --> 00:47:18,719 Speaker 14: the George Floyd protest. So this is a bipartisan issue. 974 00:47:19,200 --> 00:47:23,520 Speaker 14: It's something that there's already federal law that exists, and 975 00:47:23,600 --> 00:47:26,560 Speaker 14: so he should be able to use this as a 976 00:47:26,680 --> 00:47:29,080 Speaker 14: means of being able to identify those people who are 977 00:47:29,120 --> 00:47:33,239 Speaker 14: abusing power. And I think that is a very good 978 00:47:33,280 --> 00:47:35,520 Speaker 14: place to start, and I hope that he will do 979 00:47:35,560 --> 00:47:38,480 Speaker 14: that because the IGS already know who these people are, 980 00:47:38,640 --> 00:47:42,240 Speaker 14: they've identified, the courts have already identified them, but nobody 981 00:47:42,280 --> 00:47:43,440 Speaker 14: has been brought to justice. 982 00:47:43,480 --> 00:47:45,400 Speaker 10: So in a broader sense, then, because you know the 983 00:47:45,400 --> 00:47:48,600 Speaker 10: deep state very very well, what will President Trump and 984 00:47:48,640 --> 00:47:51,160 Speaker 10: his cabinet have to do to do a full swamp 985 00:47:51,239 --> 00:47:53,560 Speaker 10: draining across the board, Because clearly it's not just the 986 00:47:53,640 --> 00:47:55,920 Speaker 10: FBI that may need it. Is this something you think 987 00:47:55,960 --> 00:47:57,760 Speaker 10: Pam Bondy can assist with. 988 00:47:58,760 --> 00:48:01,799 Speaker 14: Yes, it's absolutely necessary in fact, because and this was, 989 00:48:02,120 --> 00:48:04,799 Speaker 14: you know, really at the heart of the problem with 990 00:48:05,160 --> 00:48:08,160 Speaker 14: when Jim Comey went before you know, the press and 991 00:48:08,440 --> 00:48:10,479 Speaker 14: held that press conference in front of the Jagger Hoover 992 00:48:10,520 --> 00:48:13,440 Speaker 14: Building when he said that no reasonable prosecutor would bring 993 00:48:13,440 --> 00:48:16,120 Speaker 14: a case. That is not the FBI's job. It is 994 00:48:16,160 --> 00:48:20,840 Speaker 14: not the FBI's job or their purview to make determinations 995 00:48:20,880 --> 00:48:22,960 Speaker 14: for you know, whether or not somebody is going to 996 00:48:22,960 --> 00:48:25,440 Speaker 14: be indicted. That is the job of the DOJ. The 997 00:48:25,520 --> 00:48:29,319 Speaker 14: FBI's job is simply to investigate. And so it is 998 00:48:29,360 --> 00:48:33,279 Speaker 14: going to require Pam Bondy and the DOJ to make 999 00:48:33,320 --> 00:48:36,400 Speaker 14: determinations of who to indict and when to go after people. 1000 00:48:36,400 --> 00:48:38,719 Speaker 14: And I hope that they will be prepared to do 1001 00:48:38,760 --> 00:48:41,400 Speaker 14: that because one of the biggest problems right now that exists, 1002 00:48:41,440 --> 00:48:43,880 Speaker 14: in my opinion in regards to the FBI and the 1003 00:48:43,920 --> 00:48:47,479 Speaker 14: DOJ is that nobody holds them accountable. They're above the law. 1004 00:48:47,960 --> 00:48:50,640 Speaker 14: If somebody, you know, pulls you out of your car 1005 00:48:51,440 --> 00:48:54,160 Speaker 14: and violate your rights, you know that's a state trooper 1006 00:48:54,239 --> 00:48:57,680 Speaker 14: or something, the FBI will go and arrest them for 1007 00:48:58,120 --> 00:49:00,360 Speaker 14: deprivation of rights. Under color of law. But when the 1008 00:49:00,440 --> 00:49:03,040 Speaker 14: FBI does it or the DOJ, you know, these US 1009 00:49:03,120 --> 00:49:05,120 Speaker 14: attorneys do it, who goes after them? 1010 00:49:05,239 --> 00:49:08,319 Speaker 10: No one, Yeah, exactly, And there's got to be accountability 1011 00:49:08,360 --> 00:49:10,160 Speaker 10: for that. So we can only hope that you know, 1012 00:49:10,239 --> 00:49:13,920 Speaker 10: between Cash Bettel, Pam Bondi, all the other higher ups, 1013 00:49:14,000 --> 00:49:16,160 Speaker 10: especially in this cabinet, that they can do something about it.
