Speaker 1: here on Battleground Live is my good buddy Steve Friend.

22
00:01:28,680 --> 00:01:32,840
Speaker 1: He's a police officer, FBI agent turned whistleblower. He's best

23
00:01:32,840 --> 00:01:36,119
Speaker 1: selling author of True Blue, got a lot to talk

29
00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:55,000
Speaker 1: do this here on Battleground Live. He's a great guy.

30
00:01:55,160 --> 00:01:57,240
Speaker 1: While I'm going through the top of the show, folks, also,

31
00:01:57,400 --> 00:02:00,680
Speaker 1: do not forget to smash that like button, that little

32
00:02:00,800 --> 00:02:03,920
Speaker 1: green thumb beneath the video. Go ahead and smash it,

33
00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:07,920

Speaker 1: thank you for that smash that like button, like you

38
00:02:22,400 --> 00:02:28,040
Speaker 1: always do. Protecting our families and homes is essential, but

39
00:02:28,200 --> 00:02:32,919
Speaker 1: are we truly prepared? Break Ins happen every twenty five seconds,

40
00:02:33,160 --> 00:02:36,680
Speaker 1: even with a security system, can it really keep intruders out?

41
00:02:37,040 --> 00:02:41,560
Speaker 1: Layer your defenses to buy yourself time, and you start

42
00:02:41,760 --> 00:02:45,920
Speaker 1: with saber driveway alerts to know when someone's approaching, paired

43
00:02:45,919 --> 00:02:50,919
Speaker 1: with floodlights to deter them. Sabers Door security bars reinforce

44
00:02:51,200 --> 00:02:54,640
Speaker 1: your front and back doors, stopping up to six hundred

45
00:02:54,639 --> 00:02:58,040
Speaker 1: and fifty pounds of force, and to secure entry points

46
00:02:58,120 --> 00:03:00,840
Speaker 1: even when you're not home, and if you are home,

47
00:03:01,440 --> 00:03:05,240
Speaker 1: many invasions happen at night. Sabers Home Defense Launcher is

48
00:03:05,280 --> 00:03:09,960
Speaker 1: the ultimate choice to protect yourself and family. Saber projectiles

49
00:03:10,040 --> 00:03:14,320
Speaker 1: hit hard, causing intense pain and can still be effective

50
00:03:14,480 --> 00:03:18,160
Speaker 1: even if you miss. As intruders within the six foot

51
00:03:18,280 --> 00:03:23,840
Speaker 1: pepper cloud experience sensory irritation plus. Sabers Home Defense Launcher

52
00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:27,600

58
00:03:52,760 --> 00:03:56,200
Speaker 1: have been wanting to get to this, uh, this serious stuff,

59
00:03:56,760 --> 00:04:00,840
Speaker 1: in this propaganda stuff for days now, because when this

60
00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:03,760
Speaker 1: video came out, I called it. I said, wait a second,

61
00:04:03,840 --> 00:04:05,720
Speaker 1: this is some fake bullshit, right, here this is some

62
00:04:05,800 --> 00:04:10,040
Speaker 1: fake news bullshit and clear enough and sure sure enough,

63
00:04:10,080 --> 00:04:14,080
Speaker 1: clear enough, got to clear my mind here got Niquil

64
00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:18,040
Speaker 1: Hayes still on the brain, but sure enough the video

65
00:04:18,120 --> 00:04:21,360
Speaker 1: from Syria was in fact fake. But the big breaking

66
00:04:21,400 --> 00:04:24,440
Speaker 1: news today right at the top of the show was

67
00:04:24,520 --> 00:04:28,760
Speaker 1: following votes today by electors in each state, Donald J.

68
00:04:28,920 --> 00:04:32,480
Speaker 1: Trump and JD. Vance have now officially received the number

69
00:04:32,520 --> 00:04:36,279
Speaker 1: of electoral votes required as to be the forty seventh

70
00:04:36,279 --> 00:04:39,240
Speaker 1: president of the United States and the fiftieth Vice president

71
00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:44,000
Speaker 1: of the United States, respectively. And that is an awesome thing, folks.

72
00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:46,880
Speaker 1: I'm very excited about that, and you should be too.

73
00:04:47,560 --> 00:04:50,200
Speaker 1: In the lead up to the Trump administration, I think

74
00:04:50,400 --> 00:04:54,480
Speaker 1: is going to be a very tumultuous but also interesting time.

75
00:04:55,800 --> 00:04:57,799
Speaker 1: I think that you're gonna see a lot of fake

76
00:04:57,920 --> 00:05:01,200
Speaker 1: news narratives, all of this prop that was pushed on

77
00:05:01,440 --> 00:05:06,080
Speaker 1: us relentlessly help going back to twenty fifteen when Trump

78
00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:09,640
Speaker 1: came down the golden escalator. But we've been on the

79
00:05:09,680 --> 00:05:15,200
Speaker 1: receiving end of honestly, relentless propaganda from the fake news

80
00:05:15,240 --> 00:05:18,680
Speaker 1: media and the corporate media. It honestly is it's been

81
00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:22,320
Speaker 1: like drinking from a fire hose with these assholes, and frankly,

82
00:05:23,400 --> 00:05:26,680
Speaker 1: American trust and the media has never been lower. And

83
00:05:27,240 --> 00:05:30,520
Speaker 1: really it's a testament to the critical thinking skills of

84
00:05:30,560 --> 00:05:35,480
Speaker 1: the American people that despite all of that relentless propaganda,

85
00:05:36,200 --> 00:05:40,600
Speaker 1: they still voted for Trump in historic numbers electoral college

86
00:05:40,680 --> 00:05:46,120
Speaker 1: landslide a popular vote mandate. I mean, we control the Senate,

87
00:05:46,160 --> 00:05:48,520
Speaker 1: we control the House, we control the White House, We've

88
00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:51,640
Speaker 1: got conservative majority in the Supreme Court. We've got state

89
00:05:51,680 --> 00:05:54,440
Speaker 1: houses and state governments all across the country. All this

90
00:05:54,560 --> 00:05:58,120
Speaker 1: is made possible because of Trump. And I think now

91
00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:02,720
Speaker 1: the rats in the swamp are running scared, and I

92
00:06:02,760 --> 00:06:04,800
Speaker 1: think you're gonna see some things crashing down. I'm gonna

93
00:06:04,800 --> 00:06:06,799
Speaker 1: get into all this here with Steve here in a second.

94
00:06:06,839 --> 00:06:08,480
Speaker 1: He's in the he's in the waiting room, and I

95
00:06:08,520 --> 00:06:10,359
Speaker 1: don't even waste a second with him because he's just

96
00:06:10,400 --> 00:06:12,320
Speaker 1: so smart and we love having him. But let me

97
00:06:12,400 --> 00:06:15,560
Speaker 1: let me just show you these two CNN propaganda videos,

98
00:06:15,600 --> 00:06:18,960
Speaker 1: because I've been wanting to talk about this all damn

99
00:06:18,960 --> 00:06:20,880
Speaker 1: week and it's been left on the cutting room floor,

100
00:06:21,120 --> 00:06:22,960
Speaker 1: and I'm talking about it today. But these are the

101
00:06:23,040 --> 00:06:26,040
Speaker 1: videos I'm talking about. So Carissa, I think her name

102
00:06:26,120 --> 00:06:30,360
Speaker 1: is Carrissa Ward or Clarissa Ward, she's like a wartime

103
00:06:30,400 --> 00:06:34,360
Speaker 1: correspondent for CNN. She goes to Syria and stumbles upon

104
00:06:34,480 --> 00:06:38,240
Speaker 1: this prisoner who's in a cell left behind by the

105
00:06:38,279 --> 00:06:44,360
Speaker 1: Assad regime. Five days, no food in the cell, three months,

106
00:06:44,880 --> 00:06:48,080
Speaker 1: it's been weeks since he's had water, and he's left behind.

107
00:06:48,120 --> 00:06:50,120
Speaker 1: But just just watch this this and just know the

108
00:06:50,160 --> 00:06:53,800
Speaker 1: whole time, know the whole time that this is propaganda.

109
00:06:53,880 --> 00:06:56,760
Speaker 1: Obviously not it's not real. And if you were paying

110
00:06:56,760 --> 00:06:58,920
Speaker 1: attention and thinking for yourself, which many of you all do,

111
00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:01,640
Speaker 1: of course you do when this video came out, you

112
00:07:01,720 --> 00:07:04,200
Speaker 1: watch it and you immediately thought, well, this is bullshit.

113
00:07:04,640 --> 00:07:07,080
Speaker 1: There's no way this guy's been in a prison cell

114
00:07:07,160 --> 00:07:10,840
Speaker 1: with no windows for three months, like no food for

115
00:07:10,920 --> 00:07:13,760
Speaker 1: a week. Human beings can't survive for a week in

116
00:07:13,880 --> 00:07:16,760
Speaker 1: jail with no sun or water for five days. I mean,

117
00:07:16,800 --> 00:07:20,920
Speaker 1: it's absolutely ridiculous. Guys, his clothes aren't even dirty. But

118
00:07:21,080 --> 00:07:23,320
Speaker 1: just watch this. This is this is this is how

119
00:07:23,600 --> 00:07:28,360
Speaker 1: fake news narratives starts. It's unbelievable. Just check this out.

120
00:07:28,920 --> 00:07:30,760
Speaker 2: I can't tell though, it might just be a blanket,

121
00:07:30,960 --> 00:07:32,560
Speaker 2: but it's the only cell that's locked.

122
00:07:33,280 --> 00:07:36,480
Speaker 3: Is he gonna shoot it. The guard makes us turn

123
00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:38,800
Speaker 3: the camera off while he shoots the lock off the

124
00:07:38,880 --> 00:07:45,600
Speaker 3: cell door. We go in to get a closer look.

125
00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:52,440
Speaker 3: It's still not clear if there is something under the blanket, is.

126
00:07:52,560 --> 00:07:53,320
Speaker 2: Someone there.

127
00:07:57,040 --> 00:07:58,600
Speaker 3: Is someone there.

128
00:08:05,400 --> 00:08:27,160
Speaker 4: Hello, Okay, I'm a civilian, he says, I'm a civilian.

129
00:08:29,280 --> 00:08:29,680
Speaker 1: That's okay.

130
00:08:34,400 --> 00:08:38,400
Speaker 3: He tells the fighter. He's from the City of Humps,

131
00:08:38,679 --> 00:08:42,600
Speaker 3: has been in the cell for three months. Okay, you're okay,

132
00:08:43,520 --> 00:08:50,120
Speaker 3: You're okay. Okay, you're okay. He clutches my arm tightly

133
00:08:50,200 --> 00:09:01,760
Speaker 3: with both hands. Does anyone have any water? There's something Okay,

134
00:09:01,800 --> 00:09:13,560
Speaker 3: it's water. It's water. Okay, okay, okay, you're okay, Okay,

135
00:09:14,840 --> 00:09:15,320
Speaker 3: you're okay.

136
00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:19,800
Speaker 1: So I'm laughing because it gets better. So this is

137
00:09:19,960 --> 00:09:23,040
Speaker 1: the first part of it. So just just so you know,

138
00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:25,920
Speaker 1: this is this has been completely debunked. That man is

139
00:09:25,960 --> 00:09:27,720
Speaker 1: not a prisoner in a cell. And again, if you

140
00:09:27,720 --> 00:09:29,320
Speaker 1: have a brain in your head, which many of you

141
00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:32,160
Speaker 1: all do, because you all think for yourselves. The guy

142
00:09:32,240 --> 00:09:34,840
Speaker 1: gets up, has been in that prison for three months.

143
00:09:34,880 --> 00:09:39,160
Speaker 1: No windows is closed. I mean, it looks it's unbelieva.

144
00:09:39,160 --> 00:09:41,079
Speaker 1: It looks like he's got his clothes back from the

145
00:09:41,120 --> 00:09:44,559
Speaker 1: dry cleaner that day. Watch the second part of this video,

146
00:09:44,600 --> 00:09:47,040
Speaker 1: because the first thing that you do with somebody who's

147
00:09:47,040 --> 00:09:49,959
Speaker 1: been in the prison for three months a week with

148
00:09:50,000 --> 00:09:53,360
Speaker 1: no food and probably no water for five days, which

149
00:09:53,440 --> 00:09:54,920
Speaker 1: is what they allege. He's been in the prison for

150
00:09:55,000 --> 00:09:57,720
Speaker 1: five days left alone, the first thing you do is

151
00:09:57,720 --> 00:10:01,719
Speaker 1: surely interview the guy. Right, Well, that's what's after.

152
00:10:01,520 --> 00:10:04,800
Speaker 3: Three months in a windowless cell, you can finally see

153
00:10:04,840 --> 00:10:06,600
Speaker 3: the sky and.

154
00:10:13,240 --> 00:10:13,640
Speaker 2: The light.

155
00:10:14,080 --> 00:10:16,960
Speaker 3: Says, Oh God, there is life, there is.

156
00:10:19,160 --> 00:10:28,960
Speaker 1: H Okay, h okay.

157
00:10:32,160 --> 00:10:36,079
Speaker 3: Come stay again and again.

158
00:10:38,200 --> 00:10:42,720
Speaker 2: Look, come back, come and it let the short.

159
00:10:42,960 --> 00:10:46,880
Speaker 3: For three months, I didn't know anything about I didn't

160
00:10:46,920 --> 00:10:48,360
Speaker 3: hear anything about my children.

161
00:10:50,679 --> 00:10:52,480
Speaker 1: Above sh sh.

162
00:10:55,120 --> 00:10:59,160
Speaker 3: The fighter handsome something to eat, barely lifted to his mouth.

163
00:11:07,600 --> 00:11:12,560
Speaker 3: His body can't handle it. Okay, his captures fled during

164
00:11:12,559 --> 00:11:17,559
Speaker 3: the fall of Damascus, leaving him with no food or water.

165
00:11:18,440 --> 00:11:24,520
Speaker 3: Was at least four days ago. I'm shaking. My face

166
00:11:24,600 --> 00:11:28,000
Speaker 3: is shaking, he says. The rebel tells him there's no

167
00:11:28,040 --> 00:11:33,200
Speaker 3: more army, no more prisons, no more checkpoints. Are you serious,

168
00:11:33,320 --> 00:11:42,200
Speaker 3: he says, Syria is free. He tells him it's the

169
00:11:42,240 --> 00:11:44,600
Speaker 3: first time he has heard those words.

170
00:11:49,600 --> 00:11:51,800
Speaker 1: So this is all bullshit. Litsten, look at this New

171
00:11:51,880 --> 00:11:59,000
Speaker 1: York Post headline, New York Posts yesterday, Prisoner. These people

172
00:11:59,000 --> 00:12:01,680
Speaker 1: were just such as clowns. I'm sorry, they're just so

173
00:12:02,559 --> 00:12:07,120
Speaker 1: they're so full of shit. They're just such disgusting hack liars.

174
00:12:07,320 --> 00:12:10,880
Speaker 1: You don't revile the media enough. And and I'm not

175
00:12:10,960 --> 00:12:13,360
Speaker 1: trying to blame Clarissa Ward. I mean, maybe she was

176
00:12:13,400 --> 00:12:16,880
Speaker 1: tricked by this, but for God's sake, you're a war correspondent.

177
00:12:17,200 --> 00:12:19,160
Speaker 1: You should be able to think on your feet a

178
00:12:19,160 --> 00:12:22,079
Speaker 1: little bit better than that. This New York Post headline,

179
00:12:22,400 --> 00:12:28,000
Speaker 1: prisoner CNN helped free from Syrian prison? What's actually notorious

180
00:12:28,160 --> 00:12:33,520
Speaker 1: ASSAD regime torturer? And here Clarissa Ward is hugging up

181
00:12:33,520 --> 00:12:37,400
Speaker 1: on this guy, giving him water, giving him food. This

182
00:12:37,520 --> 00:12:41,160
Speaker 1: is it's amazing when you look at that now in retrospect,

183
00:12:41,240 --> 00:12:43,760
Speaker 1: all of that was fake news. So it really begs

184
00:12:43,800 --> 00:12:47,520
Speaker 1: the question of what else is fake out there that

185
00:12:47,640 --> 00:12:50,120
Speaker 1: we watch? And I feel like I don't trust a

186
00:12:50,320 --> 00:12:54,920
Speaker 1: damn thing coming out of the media at all anymore.

187
00:12:56,040 --> 00:12:59,040
Speaker 1: And so I look, I've got my buddy, Steve Friend,

188
00:12:59,080 --> 00:13:01,160
Speaker 1: He's he's here in the waiting room. I'm gonna bring

189
00:13:01,240 --> 00:13:05,400
Speaker 1: him on now. Steve, Welcome back to the show. Former

190
00:13:06,080 --> 00:13:11,000
Speaker 1: police officer, FBI agent turned whistleblower. You're the author of

191
00:13:11,040 --> 00:13:13,800
Speaker 1: the best selling book True Blue, My Journey from a

192
00:13:13,800 --> 00:13:18,000
Speaker 1: beat cop to suspended FBI whistleblower, and of course you're

193
00:13:18,040 --> 00:13:21,640
Speaker 1: also the co host of the American Radicals podcast. That's

194
00:13:21,720 --> 00:13:25,920
Speaker 1: quite the byeline, my friend. But welcome back, second time

195
00:13:26,200 --> 00:13:28,200
Speaker 1: on Battleground Live. Glad to have you.

196
00:13:28,720 --> 00:13:31,480
Speaker 2: I appreciate the invite back today. And look, look, I'm

197
00:13:31,520 --> 00:13:35,040
Speaker 2: an experienced investigator. Someone who said that they were three

198
00:13:35,040 --> 00:13:38,000
Speaker 2: months in captivity and had a well trimmed beard might

199
00:13:38,160 --> 00:13:39,120
Speaker 2: raise a red flag.

200
00:13:39,240 --> 00:13:45,840
Speaker 1: Ah, come on, I mean seriously, okay, I'm an infantry guy,

201
00:13:46,040 --> 00:13:48,920
Speaker 1: a little bit of a knuckle dragger in combat in Afghanistan.

202
00:13:49,200 --> 00:13:53,679
Speaker 1: You're an FBI guy, law enforcement guy, Like we used

203
00:13:53,720 --> 00:13:58,000
Speaker 1: to watch the Afghan National Army drag some of their

204
00:13:58,040 --> 00:14:01,000
Speaker 1: prisoners out of the prison. Who these were truly people

205
00:14:01,920 --> 00:14:05,080
Speaker 1: that were in prison in a windowless cell for months

206
00:14:05,080 --> 00:14:08,880
Speaker 1: on end. And saying that they looked like hammered shit

207
00:14:09,240 --> 00:14:13,280
Speaker 1: is the understatement of this century. I mean, they're just filthy.

208
00:14:13,360 --> 00:14:17,040
Speaker 1: Their beard's way overgrown. The date they said on CNN

209
00:14:17,200 --> 00:14:20,680
Speaker 1: during that interview that he went for five days without

210
00:14:20,720 --> 00:14:24,000
Speaker 1: food or water in a jail cell with no sunlight.

211
00:14:24,400 --> 00:14:28,080
Speaker 1: And he comes out his closer, his closer, pristine, his

212
00:14:28,200 --> 00:14:31,280
Speaker 1: beard is, he's gotten not a speck of dirt on him.

213
00:14:31,920 --> 00:14:34,560
Speaker 1: Yet they're running this and not a single person, not

214
00:14:34,680 --> 00:14:37,560
Speaker 1: the war correspondent, not the producer, not the executive producer,

215
00:14:37,880 --> 00:14:41,320
Speaker 1: nobody at CNN corporate thought that maybe we shouldn't run this.

216
00:14:42,400 --> 00:14:45,400
Speaker 2: Don't let a common sense get in the way of

217
00:14:45,480 --> 00:14:47,960
Speaker 2: grid narrative. That's really what they're pushing forward there. I mean,

218
00:14:48,120 --> 00:14:51,120
Speaker 2: like you can nitpick on everything that's little there. I mean,

219
00:14:51,480 --> 00:14:53,800
Speaker 2: his body can't handle the food after four days. No,

220
00:14:54,320 --> 00:14:58,320
Speaker 2: it's not forty days, right, the water would be an issue,

221
00:14:58,360 --> 00:15:01,760
Speaker 2: but yeah, some Googla he's.

222
00:15:01,160 --> 00:15:05,120
Speaker 1: Like, he's like, oh, guy's body can't handle it. It's

223
00:15:05,160 --> 00:15:06,000
Speaker 1: like four days.

224
00:15:06,040 --> 00:15:07,720
Speaker 2: I think there's foot it's a herd too, like during

225
00:15:07,760 --> 00:15:10,000
Speaker 2: a bombing where she like hit the ground and was

226
00:15:10,160 --> 00:15:13,640
Speaker 2: doing herself horizontal where there's pedestrians walking in the background,

227
00:15:13,680 --> 00:15:14,880
Speaker 2: just kind of shrugging the shoulders.

228
00:15:16,360 --> 00:15:19,880
Speaker 1: And I remember this video of Anderson Cooper doing storm

229
00:15:19,960 --> 00:15:23,480
Speaker 1: coverage and he's like in waste deep water during hurricane

230
00:15:23,520 --> 00:15:25,680
Speaker 1: coverage and like there are people that just like rode

231
00:15:25,720 --> 00:15:27,840
Speaker 1: behind him in a canoe or something like that. You're

232
00:15:27,880 --> 00:15:31,160
Speaker 1: like walking up on the road behind him like Steve.

233
00:15:31,400 --> 00:15:36,280
Speaker 1: I just I mean, my eyes were really opened when

234
00:15:36,280 --> 00:15:40,000
Speaker 1: I first ran for office during COVID during the twenty

235
00:15:40,040 --> 00:15:42,960
Speaker 1: twenty election. But now that I look back, I mean,

236
00:15:43,000 --> 00:15:46,280
Speaker 1: this is this, These types of lies have probably been

237
00:15:46,360 --> 00:15:49,040
Speaker 1: told for a hell of a lot longer than that.

238
00:15:49,640 --> 00:15:54,360
Speaker 1: Certainly something about Trump, there's something about that guy that

239
00:15:54,560 --> 00:15:58,280
Speaker 1: just makes these people expose themselves. But the truth is,

240
00:15:58,320 --> 00:16:01,680
Speaker 1: these these people in the probably been lying to us

241
00:16:01,720 --> 00:16:04,480
Speaker 1: for a hell of a lot longer. Man, It's absolutely crazy.

242
00:16:04,720 --> 00:16:09,240
Speaker 2: Unquestionably they've been lying to and unfortunately too many people.

243
00:16:09,320 --> 00:16:12,200
Speaker 2: I think coronavirus is when so many people the eyes,

244
00:16:12,320 --> 00:16:13,640
Speaker 2: the scales st are with from their eyes. I mean,

245
00:16:13,760 --> 00:16:15,960
Speaker 2: they had an up to date ticker of death. Telly,

246
00:16:16,040 --> 00:16:20,120
Speaker 2: are you serious. That's not possible. It's not mathematically possible

247
00:16:20,160 --> 00:16:22,280
Speaker 2: that you could do that get that information that quickly.

248
00:16:22,760 --> 00:16:24,920
Speaker 2: And people had two options after that. They could do

249
00:16:24,960 --> 00:16:27,440
Speaker 2: what you and your audience did, and that is have

250
00:16:27,520 --> 00:16:30,400
Speaker 2: a healthy amount of skepticism and actually do research on

251
00:16:30,440 --> 00:16:33,240
Speaker 2: the information that you're presented. Don't just take it at

252
00:16:33,320 --> 00:16:36,560
Speaker 2: face value, and then a lot of other people unfortunately said, well,

253
00:16:36,640 --> 00:16:38,680
Speaker 2: you were lying to me about that. I'm going to

254
00:16:38,680 --> 00:16:41,320
Speaker 2: presume that everything that you said is always a lie,

255
00:16:41,400 --> 00:16:43,800
Speaker 2: which is why you have enormous uptick in people that

256
00:16:43,840 --> 00:16:47,320
Speaker 2: are just saying that there's a flat earth thor you know,

257
00:16:47,320 --> 00:16:49,960
Speaker 2: all these conspiracy theories, and that as a result, because

258
00:16:50,000 --> 00:16:52,960
Speaker 2: they're lumped in with people who are skeptical, it discredits

259
00:16:52,960 --> 00:16:55,280
Speaker 2: the entire movement of being skeptical and why would you

260
00:16:55,360 --> 00:16:58,800
Speaker 2: ever question the science? Now, the best part is, I

261
00:16:58,800 --> 00:17:01,800
Speaker 2: think after this most recent election, is that there will

262
00:17:01,840 --> 00:17:04,800
Speaker 2: not be the whirlwinds to reap of the Trump derangement

263
00:17:04,880 --> 00:17:08,719
Speaker 2: syndrome to the CNNs and the MSNBC's I think they

264
00:17:08,720 --> 00:17:12,040
Speaker 2: were so exposed by COVID that as a result, the

265
00:17:12,040 --> 00:17:13,960
Speaker 2: people aren't going to come back to them in mass

266
00:17:14,000 --> 00:17:16,440
Speaker 2: like they did in twenty seventeen and twenty eighteen, and

267
00:17:16,440 --> 00:17:18,000
Speaker 2: they're not going to be able to say Russia, Russia,

268
00:17:18,040 --> 00:17:22,359
Speaker 2: Russia anymore. And that to me, my big prediction for

269
00:17:22,440 --> 00:17:25,520
Speaker 2: next year is that I think MSNBC probably is in

270
00:17:25,560 --> 00:17:28,320
Speaker 2: the running leader of the clubhouse in this one. I

271
00:17:28,359 --> 00:17:30,840
Speaker 2: think we will see the effort to get the audience

272
00:17:30,840 --> 00:17:34,040
Speaker 2: to come back that they will openly say we're using

273
00:17:34,119 --> 00:17:37,280
Speaker 2: artificial intelligence. The AI is going to write all of

274
00:17:37,320 --> 00:17:40,600
Speaker 2: our pieces. It'll be nonpartisan. But we know that that's

275
00:17:40,640 --> 00:17:42,480
Speaker 2: not true. And then in fact, we're not going to

276
00:17:42,520 --> 00:17:46,080
Speaker 2: have on air talent. We'll just put the AI generated

277
00:17:46,119 --> 00:17:47,720
Speaker 2: image of the person who we don't have to pay,

278
00:17:47,800 --> 00:17:50,439
Speaker 2: who can just be a correspondent or a reader for

279
00:17:50,560 --> 00:17:52,560
Speaker 2: twenty four hours a day without having to take a

280
00:17:52,560 --> 00:17:54,639
Speaker 2: bathroom break. And we saw that with the way that

281
00:17:54,680 --> 00:17:57,760
Speaker 2: they did it with Ukraine. The government of Ukraine put

282
00:17:57,800 --> 00:18:01,480
Speaker 2: out this African American looking British accented woman who is

283
00:18:01,480 --> 00:18:03,760
Speaker 2: a spokesperson, but it was all AI and it is

284
00:18:03,800 --> 00:18:06,760
Speaker 2: supposed to put forth an era of legitimacy. I think

285
00:18:06,760 --> 00:18:08,879
Speaker 2: we'll probably see that this year. That's how good it's gotten.

286
00:18:08,920 --> 00:18:09,639
Speaker 2: It's terrifying.

287
00:18:10,359 --> 00:18:13,320
Speaker 1: That is something that had not I had not even

288
00:18:13,480 --> 00:18:18,720
Speaker 1: considered that that. Yeah, you know, MSNBC has a financial

289
00:18:18,720 --> 00:18:21,240
Speaker 1: incentive to do it because they're on the ropes big time.

290
00:18:21,480 --> 00:18:24,840
Speaker 1: You know, Comcast is trying to sell them off. It does,

291
00:18:25,080 --> 00:18:26,760
Speaker 1: and it looks like a lot of their on air

292
00:18:26,800 --> 00:18:29,879
Speaker 1: talent will probably get the acts. And if that happens,

293
00:18:29,880 --> 00:18:32,280
Speaker 1: how do you preserve the brand without it going under?

294
00:18:32,480 --> 00:18:36,480
Speaker 1: You know, I mean I think, Steve, I think you're

295
00:18:36,480 --> 00:18:39,400
Speaker 1: gonna see in the next couple of months as tumultuous

296
00:18:39,400 --> 00:18:41,680
Speaker 1: as they'll be. And I think when I say tumultuous,

297
00:18:41,680 --> 00:18:44,080
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, we've been watching drones for the

298
00:18:44,080 --> 00:18:46,960
Speaker 1: better part of two weeks off the East coast and

299
00:18:47,000 --> 00:18:50,399
Speaker 1: now in Some have been spotted in Pennsylvania. There was

300
00:18:50,440 --> 00:18:54,000
Speaker 1: an Air Force base shutdown in Ohio. They're on the

301
00:18:54,000 --> 00:18:58,399
Speaker 1: west coast now as well. And our government continues to say,

302
00:18:58,480 --> 00:19:00,399
Speaker 1: I don't know what they are, and they released statement

303
00:19:00,440 --> 00:19:05,560
Speaker 1: today saying that they're lawfully operated drones. I mean, I'm sorry, Steve,

304
00:19:05,640 --> 00:19:08,720
Speaker 1: but the lack of transparency is really galling to me.

305
00:19:09,320 --> 00:19:12,120
Speaker 1: And if it was a training mission and we knew

306
00:19:12,119 --> 00:19:15,120
Speaker 1: what it was, or it was a company testing new technology,

307
00:19:15,680 --> 00:19:18,399
Speaker 1: then just say that it's a company testing new technology,

308
00:19:18,400 --> 00:19:20,199
Speaker 1: that's all you need to know. Or it's a defense

309
00:19:20,240 --> 00:19:23,359
Speaker 1: contractor testing this. You know it's secret, we don't you know,

310
00:19:23,440 --> 00:19:26,440
Speaker 1: I mean, just say this is a test. But they're

311
00:19:26,440 --> 00:19:29,199
Speaker 1: not doing that, Steve, and and and the fact that

312
00:19:29,240 --> 00:19:31,040
Speaker 1: they're not doing that leads me to believe that that

313
00:19:31,680 --> 00:19:35,960
Speaker 1: there's something greater going on here that they're not telling us.

314
00:19:35,960 --> 00:19:38,440
Speaker 1: And when you look at the story of Clarissa Ward

315
00:19:38,520 --> 00:19:41,720
Speaker 1: out there with a U with Assyrian with an ASSAD

316
00:19:41,840 --> 00:19:44,320
Speaker 1: torturer pretending like he's been in prison for a week,

317
00:19:44,480 --> 00:19:46,600
Speaker 1: and all the other lies that the media and our

318
00:19:46,640 --> 00:19:50,480
Speaker 1: government officials have told us. By the way Democrats and Republicans,

319
00:19:51,480 --> 00:19:55,600
Speaker 1: why the hell shouldn't we believe that there's something sinister

320
00:19:55,760 --> 00:19:57,439
Speaker 1: going on in New Jersey?

321
00:19:57,720 --> 00:19:59,600
Speaker 2: I agree with you. And I was talking to a

322
00:19:59,600 --> 00:20:05,720
Speaker 2: buddy in George Hill. He is US Marines, US Navy NSA,

323
00:20:05,920 --> 00:20:09,439
Speaker 2: FBI intelligence analysts. He's got three to four decades of this,

324
00:20:09,560 --> 00:20:13,280
Speaker 2: a real serious guy, not prone to tinfoil hat conspiracy theories,

325
00:20:13,280 --> 00:20:18,600
Speaker 2: and actually has private industry experience in the unmanned aircraft space.

326
00:20:19,119 --> 00:20:20,720
Speaker 2: And he was sort of poked holes in all the

327
00:20:20,720 --> 00:20:23,000
Speaker 2: different theories out there, and then he brought up the

328
00:20:23,000 --> 00:20:25,119
Speaker 2: one that he said, I can't say if it's true

329
00:20:25,240 --> 00:20:27,080
Speaker 2: or not. I just can't find any holes to poke

330
00:20:27,119 --> 00:20:30,560
Speaker 2: into it. And it also ties back to coronavirus. Remember

331
00:20:30,560 --> 00:20:34,800
Speaker 2: the theory of a virus escaping from a lab. Yes,

332
00:20:35,280 --> 00:20:39,800
Speaker 2: what about sentient AI escaping the grasp of the US government?

333
00:20:39,880 --> 00:20:41,760
Speaker 2: And they don't know how to ring it back in

334
00:20:41,840 --> 00:20:46,600
Speaker 2: at this point. And when he said that self aware,

335
00:20:47,200 --> 00:20:48,160
Speaker 2: this is crazy.

336
00:20:48,200 --> 00:20:51,080
Speaker 1: See see you've got to be a recurring guest on

337
00:20:51,119 --> 00:20:53,600
Speaker 1: this show. The stuff that I didn't even consider, the

338
00:20:53,680 --> 00:20:58,080
Speaker 1: AI projections of news anchors. That honestly, that makes a

339
00:20:58,119 --> 00:21:00,760
Speaker 1: lot of sense. I could see that happening, especially when

340
00:21:00,800 --> 00:21:04,520
Speaker 1: it saves people money, you know, But sentient AI, I mean,

341
00:21:04,520 --> 00:21:06,800
Speaker 1: you've heard Elon Musk banging the drum on this for

342
00:21:06,880 --> 00:21:09,840
Speaker 1: the better part of a year. That people don't realize

343
00:21:09,880 --> 00:21:15,280
Speaker 1: how dangerous this technology is, and it progresses in its

344
00:21:15,320 --> 00:21:20,040
Speaker 1: intelligence unbelievably fast, almost compounding on itself day after day

345
00:21:20,080 --> 00:21:24,360
Speaker 1: after day, and the minute that it's unshackled, then what And.

346
00:21:24,320 --> 00:21:26,679
Speaker 2: I think it would answer the response that we've gotten

347
00:21:26,680 --> 00:21:29,199
Speaker 2: from our spokespeople at the government, where they've been very

348
00:21:29,280 --> 00:21:31,240
Speaker 2: coy with their language and they're saying things like, well,

349
00:21:31,240 --> 00:21:35,280
Speaker 2: we're not concerned about it, but it's not ours. That's illogical.

350
00:21:35,840 --> 00:21:37,920
Speaker 2: I think that they are responding in a way that

351
00:21:38,040 --> 00:21:40,520
Speaker 2: they don't know they're scrambling, which is what we got

352
00:21:40,560 --> 00:21:43,960
Speaker 2: from the lap leak in Wuhan. It's exact same.

353
00:21:44,040 --> 00:21:45,760
Speaker 1: And what the hell do you do if it's I

354
00:21:45,800 --> 00:21:47,600
Speaker 1: mean serious, I mean, you're going down a path here,

355
00:21:47,640 --> 00:21:49,720
Speaker 1: but what do you do if it's sentient AI? And

356
00:21:50,040 --> 00:21:51,640
Speaker 1: what the hell are they flying around for?

357
00:21:52,640 --> 00:21:55,280
Speaker 2: I mean, I'm out of my depth on it as well.

358
00:21:55,320 --> 00:21:58,160
Speaker 2: I mean I think they're probably concerned about trying to

359
00:21:58,200 --> 00:22:00,359
Speaker 2: be adversarial in it. I mean, they probab they do

360
00:22:00,440 --> 00:22:03,040
Speaker 2: remember war games and the only way to win is

361
00:22:03,080 --> 00:22:06,080
Speaker 2: not to play. Do you go kinetic against these sorts

362
00:22:06,080 --> 00:22:09,359
Speaker 2: of things? I don't know, I really, but when George

363
00:22:09,400 --> 00:22:12,320
Speaker 2: presented that to me, I had this similar reaction, and

364
00:22:12,359 --> 00:22:14,840
Speaker 2: he did. He was very sober about it. And again

365
00:22:14,880 --> 00:22:17,879
Speaker 2: he's not saying that definitively this is it, but it

366
00:22:17,920 --> 00:22:19,679
Speaker 2: is one of the theories that's out there that he is,

367
00:22:20,119 --> 00:22:23,320
Speaker 2: with his wealth of experience, was unable to poke a

368
00:22:23,560 --> 00:22:26,400
Speaker 2: very obvious hole in and say, no, that doesn't hold water.

369
00:22:26,840 --> 00:22:30,159
Speaker 1: Okay, so well, let's talk about something that you have

370
00:22:30,200 --> 00:22:34,600
Speaker 1: a lot of experience in and that this AI stuff

371
00:22:34,640 --> 00:22:37,960
Speaker 1: is crazy though I'm super interested in it too. But

372
00:22:38,720 --> 00:22:41,879
Speaker 1: I reached out to you last week Steve about you know,

373
00:22:42,119 --> 00:22:43,720
Speaker 1: I wanted to have you on the show last week

374
00:22:43,720 --> 00:22:48,040
Speaker 1: about this FBI Officer of Inspector General Report finding that

375
00:22:48,200 --> 00:22:51,439
Speaker 1: you know twenty six FBI undercover assets were in the

376
00:22:51,440 --> 00:22:55,440
Speaker 1: crowd during January sixth. It confidential human sources at the Capitol.

377
00:22:55,800 --> 00:22:59,440
Speaker 1: I thought you'd be the perfect person to comment on this.

378
00:23:00,000 --> 00:23:02,640
Speaker 1: Before I even reached out to you, you reached out

379
00:23:02,680 --> 00:23:05,800
Speaker 1: to me basically saying this report is bullshit. So tell me,

380
00:23:05,920 --> 00:23:07,720
Speaker 1: tell me what you're thinking. What's going on.

381
00:23:08,280 --> 00:23:11,000
Speaker 2: Well, what you have to understand about the Inspector General

382
00:23:11,160 --> 00:23:15,359
Speaker 2: first is that they're answerable to doj They're not really independent.

383
00:23:15,440 --> 00:23:18,720
Speaker 2: So the news slash government investigated the government in the

384
00:23:18,800 --> 00:23:22,320
Speaker 2: termin of the government did nothing wrong. They don't really

385
00:23:22,600 --> 00:23:25,399
Speaker 2: give you the full accountability, and they're not incentivized to

386
00:23:25,680 --> 00:23:28,040
Speaker 2: If they were really adversarial as they should be as

387
00:23:28,080 --> 00:23:30,960
Speaker 2: an oversight organization, they would have someone like me or

388
00:23:31,560 --> 00:23:33,720
Speaker 2: one of my other buddies who's an FBI whistleblower at

389
00:23:33,720 --> 00:23:36,719
Speaker 2: their elbow, so that when you ask the questions that

390
00:23:36,960 --> 00:23:39,240
Speaker 2: the responses that the FBI comes back with, you'd be

391
00:23:39,240 --> 00:23:41,360
Speaker 2: able to say, no, no, no, I'm calling bullshit on that.

392
00:23:41,920 --> 00:23:45,920
Speaker 2: And seeing the first we'll just go to the undercover

393
00:23:46,160 --> 00:23:48,840
Speaker 2: because that was one of the blaring, blatant lies that

394
00:23:48,880 --> 00:23:51,760
Speaker 2: we're in there. The question was posed to the FBI,

395
00:23:53,040 --> 00:23:56,880
Speaker 2: did you have undercover employees there that day? Now, if

396
00:23:56,920 --> 00:23:59,919
Speaker 2: you asked that question, you would think, yeah, it's an FBI. Ah,

397
00:24:00,119 --> 00:24:01,960
Speaker 2: who's just wearing clothes like Steve is right now?

398
00:24:02,280 --> 00:24:02,480
Speaker 1: Right.

399
00:24:02,560 --> 00:24:07,359
Speaker 2: The FBI interprets it very specifically because an actual UCE

400
00:24:08,119 --> 00:24:12,040
Speaker 2: is an official position within the FBI. Undercover employee. You

401
00:24:12,080 --> 00:24:15,800
Speaker 2: go through selection, you get trained. If a case agent

402
00:24:15,920 --> 00:24:19,440
Speaker 2: needs to have an official UCE on their case, they

403
00:24:19,440 --> 00:24:21,920
Speaker 2: put in a request. That person comes and you sort

404
00:24:21,920 --> 00:24:23,639
Speaker 2: of explain, here, this is the role I need you

405
00:24:23,680 --> 00:24:26,880
Speaker 2: to play. The FBI answered that question to that specific

406
00:24:26,960 --> 00:24:29,320
Speaker 2: term and said, no, we did not have any ucees.

407
00:24:29,600 --> 00:24:33,160
Speaker 1: These copies are like highly trained under Yeah, so that's

408
00:24:33,200 --> 00:24:35,880
Speaker 1: that's very that's a very comparison.

409
00:24:35,920 --> 00:24:37,560
Speaker 2: Would be like if you go to a party and

410
00:24:37,560 --> 00:24:39,400
Speaker 2: so it says, hey, were there any soldiers who are there?

411
00:24:39,520 --> 00:24:41,720
Speaker 2: And they responded, well, there were no infantry amendments, and

412
00:24:41,760 --> 00:24:44,560
Speaker 2: you would think, oh, okay, but you would know, oh,

413
00:24:44,600 --> 00:24:46,000
Speaker 2: there could have been guys who were there who were

414
00:24:46,000 --> 00:24:46,960
Speaker 2: from a tank company.

415
00:24:47,560 --> 00:24:50,879
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's a right, great point. I did not I

416
00:24:50,880 --> 00:24:52,639
Speaker 1: did not consider that. Go on what else?

417
00:24:52,960 --> 00:24:56,400
Speaker 2: So then the to the confidential Human Sources twenty six

418
00:24:56,480 --> 00:25:00,639
Speaker 2: of them engaging in other law otherwise unlawful activity. That's again,

419
00:25:00,800 --> 00:25:03,040
Speaker 2: if you know, you know, if you're an informant for

420
00:25:03,080 --> 00:25:06,199
Speaker 2: the FBI, a confidential human source, a CCHS, you're not

421
00:25:06,400 --> 00:25:10,199
Speaker 2: a W two employee. You do get paid based on

422
00:25:10,240 --> 00:25:13,640
Speaker 2: your performance, based on your productivity, which is giving them

423
00:25:13,680 --> 00:25:17,119
Speaker 2: red meat, fresh meat for people to go after. And

424
00:25:17,160 --> 00:25:19,679
Speaker 2: they operate independently. They can be tasked. I mean they can.

425
00:25:19,800 --> 00:25:22,280
Speaker 2: You could say, hey, can you go to this January

426
00:25:22,320 --> 00:25:24,560
Speaker 2: sixth event, which did happen in the FBI light about

427
00:25:24,600 --> 00:25:27,840
Speaker 2: that they asked for informants who are available to go

428
00:25:27,880 --> 00:25:29,879
Speaker 2: to the stop the steel rally. So that was a

429
00:25:29,920 --> 00:25:30,720
Speaker 2: lie from the report.

430
00:25:30,800 --> 00:25:35,200
Speaker 1: Wait really so these okay, so couple couple things for clarity.

431
00:25:35,320 --> 00:25:38,840
Speaker 1: These people, these undercover assets they get they're not W

432
00:25:38,960 --> 00:25:41,159
Speaker 1: two employees. I think it's a great way to describe it.

433
00:25:41,200 --> 00:25:44,159
Speaker 1: They're not on the payroll of the FBI, on the

434
00:25:44,200 --> 00:25:46,439
Speaker 1: government payroll, but they are getting paid.

435
00:25:47,240 --> 00:25:49,560
Speaker 2: There are funds for it in the millions of dollars

436
00:25:49,560 --> 00:25:51,720
Speaker 2: every year that the FBI pays out, and they pay

437
00:25:51,760 --> 00:25:55,280
Speaker 2: it in cash. You give them a cash envelope and say,

438
00:25:55,600 --> 00:25:57,640
Speaker 2: by the way, report that on your taxes.

439
00:25:58,359 --> 00:25:59,600
Speaker 1: Get out of here.

440
00:26:00,240 --> 00:26:02,399
Speaker 2: So so they self deploy a lot of times they

441
00:26:02,440 --> 00:26:04,240
Speaker 2: might do on their own initiative. They might be tasked

442
00:26:04,240 --> 00:26:07,280
Speaker 2: with doing it, but because they're paid for performance, if

443
00:26:07,280 --> 00:26:10,439
Speaker 2: they infiltrate a group, as they do all the time,

444
00:26:11,160 --> 00:26:13,359
Speaker 2: they want to get the vulnerable person. They want to

445
00:26:13,400 --> 00:26:15,520
Speaker 2: go where it's fertile. They don't want to go to

446
00:26:15,560 --> 00:26:18,040
Speaker 2: a group of guys who are triple digit IQ that

447
00:26:18,119 --> 00:26:20,640
Speaker 2: are just conservative right a center. They're going to find

448
00:26:20,680 --> 00:26:23,040
Speaker 2: the group that's the Wolverine Watchman.

449
00:26:22,760 --> 00:26:24,960
Speaker 1: In Michigan, like the Proud Boys.

450
00:26:24,960 --> 00:26:28,160
Speaker 2: And ascend to the ladder of the lengths of the organization,

451
00:26:28,200 --> 00:26:31,359
Speaker 2: which is in Michigan. They had a chs who was

452
00:26:31,440 --> 00:26:33,399
Speaker 2: vice president of the entire group. Do you think he

453
00:26:33,440 --> 00:26:35,440
Speaker 2: had a way to control what they were doing?

454
00:26:35,680 --> 00:26:39,680
Speaker 1: And so this this Chs so and you're you're referencing

455
00:26:40,440 --> 00:26:44,680
Speaker 1: the kidnapping hoaks on Governor Whittner right like this this

456
00:26:44,960 --> 00:26:48,440
Speaker 1: was all so the kidnapping hooks. There was was initially

457
00:26:48,480 --> 00:26:52,040
Speaker 1: reported that these like right wing extremists tried to kidnap her.

458
00:26:53,000 --> 00:26:56,320
Speaker 1: All of the criminal charges I believe were tossed because

459
00:26:56,560 --> 00:27:00,680
Speaker 1: it was found out that FBI undercover ASID that's were

460
00:27:00,720 --> 00:27:03,440
Speaker 1: involved in this and look, don't I don't know the

461
00:27:03,520 --> 00:27:07,400
Speaker 1: law enforcement terms, but almost entrapped them in some weird way,

462
00:27:07,480 --> 00:27:10,000
Speaker 1: Like break this down for me, how this how this

463
00:27:10,200 --> 00:27:11,240
Speaker 1: whole thing happened.

464
00:27:11,600 --> 00:27:14,280
Speaker 2: Yes, essentially they were able to use an entrapment defense,

465
00:27:14,320 --> 00:27:17,880
Speaker 2: which is very hard. Entrapment we the way we understand

466
00:27:17,880 --> 00:27:19,840
Speaker 2: it in the lay terms, it makes sense the spirit

467
00:27:19,920 --> 00:27:22,840
Speaker 2: of entrapment, but the actual technical definition of it, the

468
00:27:22,880 --> 00:27:24,960
Speaker 2: FBI is allowed to lie, they're allowed to use ruses,

469
00:27:25,119 --> 00:27:27,199
Speaker 2: or law enforcement general's allowed to so it's hard to

470
00:27:27,200 --> 00:27:30,399
Speaker 2: present the defense. There were moments, from what my reading of,

471
00:27:30,600 --> 00:27:32,720
Speaker 2: where there were eighteen people in the room and twelve

472
00:27:32,760 --> 00:27:35,920
Speaker 2: of them were working for the government. What they had

473
00:27:36,440 --> 00:27:39,119
Speaker 2: they had people who were acquitted on state charges. They

474
00:27:39,160 --> 00:27:41,800
Speaker 2: had some that had mistrials that they retried, so they've

475
00:27:41,880 --> 00:27:44,760
Speaker 2: gotten some of the convictions in there. But look, I

476
00:27:44,880 --> 00:27:48,439
Speaker 2: was on the arrest for that case. You were a

477
00:27:48,520 --> 00:27:52,199
Speaker 2: swat operator for the Omaha team. Did We got a

478
00:27:52,320 --> 00:27:55,920
Speaker 2: request for assistance from the FBI Detroit office. They said,

479
00:27:55,960 --> 00:27:58,800
Speaker 2: can you come? I drove ten hours to Kalamazoo, Michigan.

480
00:27:59,160 --> 00:28:02,040
Speaker 2: I did swat for fives Okay, you get a briefing

481
00:28:02,040 --> 00:28:05,960
Speaker 2: before your operation. It's very it's boiler preate play. You

482
00:28:06,040 --> 00:28:08,800
Speaker 2: get the thirty thousand foot summary of the case. Hey, guys,

483
00:28:08,800 --> 00:28:11,000
Speaker 2: we have a drug case. Here's a picture of your

484
00:28:11,040 --> 00:28:13,159
Speaker 2: bad guy. Here's a rest booking photo, or here's a

485
00:28:13,240 --> 00:28:15,439
Speaker 2: driver's license photo. This is our structure, this is our

486
00:28:15,480 --> 00:28:17,800
Speaker 2: plan of action. Go forth, We're going to hit him tomorrow.

487
00:28:18,440 --> 00:28:21,200
Speaker 2: But this was unlike any other briefing that I ever

488
00:28:21,320 --> 00:28:24,560
Speaker 2: got in five years. They had video footage of these guys.

489
00:28:24,880 --> 00:28:27,280
Speaker 2: They were kitted up, they had gear that was just

490
00:28:27,320 --> 00:28:29,639
Speaker 2: as good, if not better than ours. We saw what

491
00:28:29,640 --> 00:28:32,040
Speaker 2: they were doing and it was dead quiet. There was

492
00:28:32,119 --> 00:28:35,199
Speaker 2: no locker room sort of like smoking and joking that

493
00:28:35,240 --> 00:28:38,880
Speaker 2: you get within the tactical environment. Right, guys were quiet.

494
00:28:39,040 --> 00:28:41,760
Speaker 2: And they said these guys are near peer, which means,

495
00:28:42,080 --> 00:28:43,960
Speaker 2: as I time to find out, because I'd never heard

496
00:28:44,000 --> 00:28:46,840
Speaker 2: the term. They said, they have just as good as

497
00:28:46,840 --> 00:28:49,640
Speaker 2: training and tactics and gear. Well, no kidding, you gave

498
00:28:49,720 --> 00:28:51,520
Speaker 2: them the training and the tactics and the gear.

499
00:28:53,000 --> 00:28:56,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean I mean that. It's so this is

500
00:28:56,320 --> 00:29:00,800
Speaker 1: insane to me. I'm actually I'm shocked, but not shocked

501
00:29:00,800 --> 00:29:03,280
Speaker 1: by all of this, as you can imagine. But this

502
00:29:03,360 --> 00:29:07,719
Speaker 1: Whitmer stuff. This Whitmer kidnapping hoax. It sounds like the

503
00:29:07,760 --> 00:29:12,840
Speaker 1: government just plotted a kidnapping against a sitting governor and

504
00:29:13,000 --> 00:29:15,280
Speaker 1: hung it on a couple of civilians that might have

505
00:29:15,360 --> 00:29:17,160
Speaker 1: been strap hangers. It's crazy.

506
00:29:17,320 --> 00:29:19,560
Speaker 2: They dropped in October of an election year as an

507
00:29:19,560 --> 00:29:22,320
Speaker 2: October surprise, and people don't realize the same thing was

508
00:29:22,360 --> 00:29:26,040
Speaker 2: going on in Virginia. There was a similar plot the

509
00:29:26,080 --> 00:29:29,040
Speaker 2: FBI was doing to go after the governor there, who

510
00:29:29,080 --> 00:29:32,400
Speaker 2: was Northam or McAuliffe, one of those two that you

511
00:29:32,440 --> 00:29:34,719
Speaker 2: could swap in one comments for another. Yeah, yeah, and

512
00:29:34,760 --> 00:29:38,400
Speaker 2: it never came to fruition, But it was the same plot.

513
00:29:38,480 --> 00:29:40,480
Speaker 2: It's the same plot that they were doing there. They're

514
00:29:40,480 --> 00:29:43,480
Speaker 2: trying to get a multiple state thing, and you would

515
00:29:43,480 --> 00:29:45,360
Speaker 2: have bet they probably tried to connect them or some

516
00:29:45,480 --> 00:29:49,160
Speaker 2: of that effect. But back to the IG, the twenty

517
00:29:49,280 --> 00:29:52,200
Speaker 2: six informants to me seems very low because I think

518
00:29:52,240 --> 00:29:55,280
Speaker 2: people were there who would have self deployed. Maybe they

519
00:29:55,280 --> 00:29:58,240
Speaker 2: didn't tell their handler that they were there. In that regard,

520
00:29:58,440 --> 00:30:01,400
Speaker 2: that also does include people who flipped who were in

521
00:30:01,480 --> 00:30:03,160
Speaker 2: trouble and saying, hey, the FB is coming after do

522
00:30:03,200 --> 00:30:06,800
Speaker 2: you want to flip on your buddies. But the otherwise

523
00:30:06,880 --> 00:30:10,320
Speaker 2: unlawful activity is a component of being an informant. You

524
00:30:10,360 --> 00:30:14,760
Speaker 2: can authorize them to engage in small, petty criminal activity

525
00:30:15,120 --> 00:30:18,080
Speaker 2: and they will not be charged. So like trespassing something

526
00:30:19,840 --> 00:30:22,400
Speaker 2: Ray Apps. And the last thing I'll say even about

527
00:30:22,480 --> 00:30:24,440
Speaker 2: Ray Apps and I don't in my heart of hearts,

528
00:30:24,520 --> 00:30:26,480
Speaker 2: I don't believe Ray Apps work for the FBI. I

529
00:30:26,480 --> 00:30:28,200
Speaker 2: think he worked for another agency, which is why he

530
00:30:28,240 --> 00:30:30,240
Speaker 2: answered the question the way he did. When they said

531
00:30:30,240 --> 00:30:32,800
Speaker 2: were you ever an informant for the government, he said,

532
00:30:32,800 --> 00:30:33,960
Speaker 2: I never worked for the FBI.

533
00:30:35,000 --> 00:30:35,640
Speaker 1: Wow, that's a.

534
00:30:35,560 --> 00:30:37,920
Speaker 2: Really specific answer. But he also could have worked for

535
00:30:37,960 --> 00:30:43,520
Speaker 2: the FBI because as a non W two employee, no unemployee,

536
00:30:43,520 --> 00:30:45,400
Speaker 2: but as a non W two person who gets paid

537
00:30:45,400 --> 00:30:48,760
Speaker 2: by the FBI, you are admonished by the FBI every

538
00:30:48,840 --> 00:30:51,760
Speaker 2: year with certain things. And one of those admonishments is

539
00:30:52,040 --> 00:30:54,800
Speaker 2: you do not work for us. You can't say you do.

540
00:30:55,280 --> 00:30:57,920
Speaker 2: We can't guarantee we protect your identity. You might have

541
00:30:57,960 --> 00:31:00,720
Speaker 2: to testify. There's various things to just words on the table.

542
00:31:01,400 --> 00:31:03,560
Speaker 2: He could have just been reciting his FBI ad management.

543
00:31:03,640 --> 00:31:04,640
Speaker 2: You don't work for the FBI.

544
00:31:06,080 --> 00:31:08,840
Speaker 1: What so, And this is totally copasetic. I mean, is

545
00:31:08,880 --> 00:31:10,480
Speaker 1: this part? Is this part of the reason why he

546
00:31:10,560 --> 00:31:12,720
Speaker 1: wasn't charged. I mean, I got he was with some

547
00:31:12,800 --> 00:31:16,160
Speaker 1: bullshit misdemeanor slap on the wrist, while everybody else in

548
00:31:16,240 --> 00:31:19,640
Speaker 1: January sixth is like languishing in solitary confinement on fifteen

549
00:31:19,720 --> 00:31:25,440
Speaker 1: twelve C enhanced charges. I mean, Repps, it's absolutely stunning

550
00:31:25,480 --> 00:31:30,080
Speaker 1: to me, I mean, bordering on like just defensive. Actually

551
00:31:30,360 --> 00:31:32,920
Speaker 1: not No, it didn't border on it. It was the thrown

552
00:31:32,960 --> 00:31:35,360
Speaker 1: it in our faces. This guy's not even charged with

553
00:31:35,560 --> 00:31:36,920
Speaker 1: anything substantial.

554
00:31:37,680 --> 00:31:41,320
Speaker 2: The media mobilized the sedition hunters, but yet they wrote

555
00:31:41,360 --> 00:31:44,280
Speaker 2: puff pieces for Rey Apps because we know he was

556
00:31:44,360 --> 00:31:47,000
Speaker 2: working for the government. All the evidence points to that.

557
00:31:47,520 --> 00:31:49,320
Speaker 2: I think that the most likely thing was he was

558
00:31:49,440 --> 00:31:53,200
Speaker 2: working for a Department of Homeland Security something like that,

559
00:31:53,320 --> 00:31:56,360
Speaker 2: which wouldn't have been part of the Inspector General's report.

560
00:31:56,440 --> 00:31:59,200
Speaker 2: That's what everyone forgets. Because the FBI has been prosecuting

561
00:31:59,280 --> 00:32:04,680
Speaker 2: j six DHS has ten times the budget of the FBI.

562
00:32:05,160 --> 00:32:07,160
Speaker 2: They don't have the same constraints. They don't have the

563
00:32:07,240 --> 00:32:10,360
Speaker 2: Domestic Investigations Operations Guide, they don't have the Attorney General

564
00:32:10,480 --> 00:32:13,000
Speaker 2: Guide for Domestic investigations. These are sort of the guardrails

565
00:32:13,000 --> 00:32:15,840
Speaker 2: that are supposed to take the Constitution and even narrow

566
00:32:15,920 --> 00:32:18,240
Speaker 2: it down more so we don't violate liberties. The FBI

567
00:32:18,240 --> 00:32:21,160
Speaker 2: ignores them, but at least they exist. Homeland Security doesn't

568
00:32:21,200 --> 00:32:25,640
Speaker 2: have those constraints. They have a sort of just not

569
00:32:25,800 --> 00:32:29,320
Speaker 2: a direct mission set. They're always looking for work. They

570
00:32:29,320 --> 00:32:32,520
Speaker 2: have informants, they have undercovers. This seems to be a

571
00:32:32,600 --> 00:32:36,080
Speaker 2: national security type of thing. I wonder how many informants

572
00:32:36,120 --> 00:32:38,560
Speaker 2: and undercovers that DHS had there that day. And that

573
00:32:38,600 --> 00:32:42,000
Speaker 2: doesn't conclude things like the marshals, the DEA, the ATF,

574
00:32:42,160 --> 00:32:44,880
Speaker 2: the Metro Police. The FBI is not the only agency

575
00:32:44,880 --> 00:32:45,480
Speaker 2: involved here.

576
00:32:46,400 --> 00:32:51,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, Steve, I saw January sixth when it went down,

577
00:32:51,360 --> 00:32:55,000
Speaker 1: and I immediately thought, something does not feel right. You know,

578
00:32:55,400 --> 00:33:00,400
Speaker 1: having worked with you know, different intelligence agencies and combat

579
00:33:00,520 --> 00:33:03,520
Speaker 1: zones and seeing how they operate, just something about it

580
00:33:03,640 --> 00:33:07,000
Speaker 1: just felt off. Although in the moment may mean what

581
00:33:07,040 --> 00:33:10,760
Speaker 1: could I say? But as time were on, I became

582
00:33:10,800 --> 00:33:14,000
Speaker 1: more and more convinced that this was that January sixth

583
00:33:14,200 --> 00:33:20,720
Speaker 1: was an information operation to destroy President Trump's legacy, to

584
00:33:20,760 --> 00:33:23,360
Speaker 1: make sure that he couldn't run again. Send a message

585
00:33:23,440 --> 00:33:27,360
Speaker 1: to patriots like hey, don't come down here and protest

586
00:33:27,400 --> 00:33:31,680
Speaker 1: your government, don't step out of line, and ultimately to

587
00:33:32,360 --> 00:33:36,520
Speaker 1: almost force the certification of the election process, because I mean, look,

588
00:33:37,080 --> 00:33:39,760
Speaker 1: I watched them cheat in twenty twenty. What they did

589
00:33:39,840 --> 00:33:43,320
Speaker 1: was not lawful. You know, nobody's everybody just kind of

590
00:33:43,320 --> 00:33:47,760
Speaker 1: forgot that. But I really think that there was It

591
00:33:47,800 --> 00:33:50,280
Speaker 1: was a multi pronged operation to cover up for a

592
00:33:50,280 --> 00:33:52,880
Speaker 1: lot of things and just move on from twenty twenty.

593
00:33:53,200 --> 00:33:55,840
Speaker 1: And it was a way to indict anyone else's character

594
00:33:56,240 --> 00:33:59,520
Speaker 1: who spoke out about the election and about Trump. I mean,

595
00:33:59,560 --> 00:34:04,800
Speaker 1: thank none of it worked. But what I mean, what

596
00:34:04,880 --> 00:34:06,880
Speaker 1: do you think about January sixth now, looking back in

597
00:34:06,920 --> 00:34:10,759
Speaker 1: retrospect to somebody who's a law enforcement guy, SWAT guy,

598
00:34:10,920 --> 00:34:11,760
Speaker 1: FBI guy.

599
00:34:12,440 --> 00:34:15,880
Speaker 2: So opinions aside, I think that the j six was

600
00:34:15,920 --> 00:34:20,760
Speaker 2: the best rorshak test. People looked at it and saw

601
00:34:21,080 --> 00:34:24,000
Speaker 2: what they wanted to see. What I saw going into

602
00:34:24,000 --> 00:34:27,400
Speaker 2: it before I got really skeptical, was a couple of

603
00:34:27,480 --> 00:34:29,719
Speaker 2: different groups of people. There were people who engaged in

604
00:34:29,760 --> 00:34:33,000
Speaker 2: unlawful activity, not very many of them. There were people

605
00:34:33,040 --> 00:34:38,000
Speaker 2: who went there who were informants, who were or people

606
00:34:38,000 --> 00:34:40,240
Speaker 2: who were trying to provoke the crowd to do something wrong.

607
00:34:41,000 --> 00:34:43,800
Speaker 2: There were people who went there, like the Proud Boys

608
00:34:43,840 --> 00:34:46,239
Speaker 2: or the Oathkeepers or these different groups who had been

609
00:34:46,280 --> 00:34:48,960
Speaker 2: to other events where they got attacked. They were anticipating

610
00:34:48,960 --> 00:34:51,279
Speaker 2: getting attacked by Antifa, and that's why they showed him

611
00:34:51,280 --> 00:34:53,959
Speaker 2: in body armor. And they also kind of were thinking,

612
00:34:54,000 --> 00:34:55,200
Speaker 2: you know what, I'm going to give them the beating.

613
00:34:55,239 --> 00:34:57,239
Speaker 2: Their daddy never gave them these avocado toast he eat

614
00:34:57,280 --> 00:34:59,400
Speaker 2: and people burned down the country for a whole twenty

615
00:34:59,440 --> 00:35:02,560
Speaker 2: twenty and they just and that's not laudable, but I

616
00:35:02,719 --> 00:35:06,640
Speaker 2: understand it. And the largest yeah, the largest group though,

617
00:35:06,840 --> 00:35:08,959
Speaker 2: the largest group, I call them the Miracle on thirty

618
00:35:08,960 --> 00:35:11,839
Speaker 2: fourth Street crowd because if you remember that movie, they

619
00:35:11,840 --> 00:35:15,080
Speaker 2: walk the letters into Santa Claus to prove the Santa

620
00:35:15,080 --> 00:35:17,759
Speaker 2: Claus exists. To the judge, I think a million people thought,

621
00:35:18,000 --> 00:35:20,000
Speaker 2: I'm excited about Donald Trump. I'm going to go in

622
00:35:20,040 --> 00:35:23,200
Speaker 2: an exercise to my First Amendment rights to assemble to

623
00:35:23,280 --> 00:35:26,439
Speaker 2: address my grievances, to petition my elected leaders to have

624
00:35:26,719 --> 00:35:31,600
Speaker 2: an adequate audit of the election. And they were roped

625
00:35:31,640 --> 00:35:36,000
Speaker 2: into the entire dragnet that happened. Now in retrospect, we're

626
00:35:36,000 --> 00:35:41,279
Speaker 2: finding out are things like the Lieutenant Bird who shot

627
00:35:41,320 --> 00:35:46,480
Speaker 2: Ashley Babbitt. Lieutenant Bird, it was determined he uh after

628
00:35:46,520 --> 00:35:49,360
Speaker 2: the fact on the radio said we're taking on fire,

629
00:35:50,000 --> 00:35:53,640
Speaker 2: We're taking on fire, and I am prepared to return fire.

630
00:35:54,600 --> 00:35:56,680
Speaker 2: And then he shot and this was after he shot.

631
00:35:57,360 --> 00:36:00,560
Speaker 2: That's postmeditated murder. You have the fact that we have

632
00:36:00,640 --> 00:36:04,320
Speaker 2: the pipe bomber case, which is separate from the Capitol.

633
00:36:04,600 --> 00:36:06,239
Speaker 2: I know people lump it together, but from a law

634
00:36:06,280 --> 00:36:10,400
Speaker 2: enforcement standpoint, they're separate incidents and there's been no progress

635
00:36:10,440 --> 00:36:13,160
Speaker 2: on that. If there was an actual terrorist activity, that's

636
00:36:13,200 --> 00:36:16,440
Speaker 2: a WMD, and you haven't made any progress. And wouldn't

637
00:36:16,480 --> 00:36:18,960
Speaker 2: you know it the same technology that you dropped the

638
00:36:19,600 --> 00:36:22,279
Speaker 2: cell phone dump on there to check where who was

639
00:36:22,320 --> 00:36:25,200
Speaker 2: around around the Capitol. Oh you know, we couldn't do

640
00:36:25,280 --> 00:36:27,360
Speaker 2: it for the pipe bomber at an obscure time and

641
00:36:27,400 --> 00:36:30,719
Speaker 2: an obscure location because the data was correct. And now

642
00:36:30,760 --> 00:36:32,640
Speaker 2: we found out the data wasn't corrupted. The cell phone

643
00:36:32,640 --> 00:36:34,200
Speaker 2: companies came forward a said no, it's not. I don't

644
00:36:34,200 --> 00:36:36,960
Speaker 2: know why the FBI's reporting that. And that leads me

645
00:36:37,000 --> 00:36:39,360
Speaker 2: all to this is this sounds more and more like

646
00:36:39,400 --> 00:36:41,440
Speaker 2: a put up job than anything else.

647
00:36:43,080 --> 00:36:45,440
Speaker 1: I mean, Steve, that's powerful stuff coming from you, man,

648
00:36:45,480 --> 00:36:47,680
Speaker 1: because you've walked the walk on this stuff, and you've

649
00:36:47,680 --> 00:36:52,440
Speaker 1: seen the level of depravity and corruption firsthand. You witnessed it.

650
00:36:52,560 --> 00:36:55,520
Speaker 1: You were suspended because of taking a I mean, I

651
00:36:55,520 --> 00:36:59,319
Speaker 1: wish more FBI agents did what you did at the

652
00:36:59,360 --> 00:37:02,880
Speaker 1: height of this crisis. Honestly, it speaks volumes of your character, Steve,

653
00:37:04,040 --> 00:37:08,120
Speaker 1: But speak speaking of corruption. Did you see the report

654
00:37:08,120 --> 00:37:10,239
Speaker 1: from the House Oversight Committee on the corruption of the

655
00:37:10,320 --> 00:37:14,440
Speaker 1: January sixth Committee today? I mean, like it was, like,

656
00:37:15,440 --> 00:37:19,160
Speaker 1: just consider the timeline, like Liz Cheney basically tampering with

657
00:37:19,320 --> 00:37:23,360
Speaker 1: evidence as it pertains to Cassidy Hutchinson. So the timeline

658
00:37:23,400 --> 00:37:26,919
Speaker 1: is like Cassidy Hutchinson does three interviews with the Jay

659
00:37:26,920 --> 00:37:29,319
Speaker 1: six Committee, and this is from Greg Price on X

660
00:37:29,360 --> 00:37:34,400
Speaker 1: He's great. And then Alissa Fera connects Cassidy Hutchinson with

661
00:37:34,480 --> 00:37:38,239
Speaker 1: Liz Cheney and they start directly communicating, which is a

662
00:37:38,440 --> 00:37:43,320
Speaker 1: blatant ethics violation. And then Liz Cheney convinced it's Cassidy

663
00:37:43,400 --> 00:37:48,440
Speaker 1: Hutchinson to replace her lawyer with a crazy radical left

664
00:37:48,440 --> 00:37:52,760
Speaker 1: wing activist lawyer. And then Hutchinson does a fourth interview

665
00:37:52,760 --> 00:37:54,919
Speaker 1: with the Jay six Committee, and then she makes all

666
00:37:54,960 --> 00:37:59,600
Speaker 1: of these crazy, outlandish communications and all of those claims

667
00:37:59,600 --> 00:38:02,920
Speaker 1: now as part of this investigation, turned out to be false.

668
00:38:03,160 --> 00:38:06,239
Speaker 1: And they've got the text messages where Liz Cheney and

669
00:38:06,280 --> 00:38:10,960
Speaker 1: Cassidy Hutchinson and Alyssa Farrah Griffin are communicating back and forth.

670
00:38:11,080 --> 00:38:13,480
Speaker 1: I mean, if you or I did this one hundred

671
00:38:13,560 --> 00:38:17,520
Speaker 1: percent like we would be in prison. But Liz Cheney,

672
00:38:18,440 --> 00:38:21,840
Speaker 1: member of Congress, one of the useful idiot Republicans on

673
00:38:21,880 --> 00:38:24,520
Speaker 1: the j on the fake J six committee, it was

674
00:38:24,560 --> 00:38:27,080
Speaker 1: a clearly I mean, to add to all of the

675
00:38:27,120 --> 00:38:30,480
Speaker 1: shit that you just laid out there, this is just

676
00:38:30,520 --> 00:38:33,480
Speaker 1: another layer of corruption. Man. And now to me, as

677
00:38:33,520 --> 00:38:35,760
Speaker 1: somebody who looks at this stuff through a political lens,

678
00:38:36,400 --> 00:38:39,719
Speaker 1: now I see why Liz Cheney stabbed Republicans in the

679
00:38:39,760 --> 00:38:42,040
Speaker 1: back and worked with Kamala Harris to try to knife

680
00:38:42,080 --> 00:38:44,120
Speaker 1: Trump in the back to make sure he didn't get

681
00:38:44,160 --> 00:38:47,000
Speaker 1: into the Oval office for a second term, because it

682
00:38:47,040 --> 00:38:49,080
Speaker 1: was a big cover her own ass operation.

683
00:38:49,400 --> 00:38:52,799
Speaker 2: Steve, I agree. I mean, look, the the January sixth

684
00:38:52,800 --> 00:38:56,000
Speaker 2: Committee has been or the unselect Committee. You know, I

685
00:38:56,000 --> 00:38:57,959
Speaker 2: guess you could probably characterize it as where they were

686
00:38:58,440 --> 00:39:03,480
Speaker 2: shredding documents before they get access, like, that's not their information.

687
00:39:04,239 --> 00:39:08,600
Speaker 2: They work for us, their work products belong to us.

688
00:39:08,840 --> 00:39:12,320
Speaker 2: You're not allowed to do that, and that's an obstruction

689
00:39:12,440 --> 00:39:14,920
Speaker 2: of an official proceeding if there ever was one. If

690
00:39:14,960 --> 00:39:17,680
Speaker 2: you're going to reinterpret that law to go after January

691
00:39:17,680 --> 00:39:20,239
Speaker 2: six years and thank god the Supreme Court said no,

692
00:39:20,360 --> 00:39:23,239
Speaker 2: you can't use that. But this actually fits that law

693
00:39:23,320 --> 00:39:26,560
Speaker 2: better than the application for January sixth. I don't know

694
00:39:26,560 --> 00:39:29,800
Speaker 2: if anyone is aware of this. It's eighteen US fifteen

695
00:39:29,880 --> 00:39:34,120
Speaker 2: twelve C. That is a tax law. It came out

696
00:39:34,160 --> 00:39:37,759
Speaker 2: of Enron. So you have the Enron scandal, and then

697
00:39:37,760 --> 00:39:41,480
Speaker 2: we passed Sarbaine's Oxenden and the Enron scandal. Enron had

698
00:39:41,520 --> 00:39:44,440
Speaker 2: a defense where they could say, we relied on our accountants,

699
00:39:44,760 --> 00:39:46,680
Speaker 2: they gave us bad information. You can't charge us. So

700
00:39:46,719 --> 00:39:49,319
Speaker 2: the DOJ said, we really want Enron. We need to

701
00:39:49,360 --> 00:39:52,920
Speaker 2: discredit Arthur Anderson. How are we going to do that? Oh,

702
00:39:53,040 --> 00:39:55,760
Speaker 2: they shredded documents And Arthur Anderson said, yeah, we shredded

703
00:39:55,760 --> 00:39:58,120
Speaker 2: documents because we can't keep documents for a certain length

704
00:39:58,160 --> 00:40:00,200
Speaker 2: of time. We keep them for the statute, and then

705
00:40:00,200 --> 00:40:02,960
Speaker 2: we shred them We're not enter any obligation to give

706
00:40:02,960 --> 00:40:05,960
Speaker 2: you old documents. We are advocates for our client. And

707
00:40:06,000 --> 00:40:08,440
Speaker 2: then the DOJ said, no, no, no, we have to

708
00:40:08,440 --> 00:40:11,319
Speaker 2: discredit you, and they did, and they made it so

709
00:40:11,360 --> 00:40:15,400
Speaker 2: that Enron couldn't depend on a discredited accounting firm. Meanwhile,

710
00:40:15,600 --> 00:40:18,759
Speaker 2: after the fact, after all the fallout, you have Arthur

711
00:40:18,800 --> 00:40:21,319
Speaker 2: Anderson winning at the Supreme Court saying no, that was wrong.

712
00:40:21,360 --> 00:40:23,200
Speaker 2: But at that point they were out of business. That's

713
00:40:23,239 --> 00:40:26,560
Speaker 2: the history lesson there. We passed sarbainz Oxley in response

714
00:40:26,600 --> 00:40:29,400
Speaker 2: to en law. It says shredding these documents is an

715
00:40:29,400 --> 00:40:33,360
Speaker 2: obstruction of an official proceeding, but we reinterpreted that for

716
00:40:33,480 --> 00:40:36,719
Speaker 2: January sixth. They said that walking through the Capitol was

717
00:40:36,760 --> 00:40:39,479
Speaker 2: the same thing. They also said that Donald Trump having

718
00:40:39,520 --> 00:40:43,120
Speaker 2: classified information in mar Lago was the same thing. But

719
00:40:43,160 --> 00:40:45,239
Speaker 2: I'm going back to the origin the spirit of that law.

720
00:40:45,360 --> 00:40:48,960
Speaker 2: It seems to me that January sixth committee shredding documents

721
00:40:49,600 --> 00:40:53,240
Speaker 2: to stop a follow up investigation fitze bill quite nicely,

722
00:40:53,520 --> 00:40:56,360
Speaker 2: and every member of that should be prosecuted for it,

723
00:40:56,360 --> 00:40:59,000
Speaker 2: which Pam Bondi when she assumes it becomes Attorney General,

724
00:40:59,320 --> 00:41:00,279
Speaker 2: she'll have the ability to do.

725
00:41:01,760 --> 00:41:06,080
Speaker 1: That is a fantastic point. Yeah, what the J six

726
00:41:06,200 --> 00:41:11,120
Speaker 1: Committee did was Textbook fifteen twelve CE obstruction of an

727
00:41:11,160 --> 00:41:14,160
Speaker 1: official proceeding, no doubt about it. Because they're destroying and

728
00:41:14,200 --> 00:41:17,200
Speaker 1: shredding evidence just like those accountants did, right, I mean,

729
00:41:17,200 --> 00:41:20,400
Speaker 1: it's the same thing. That is a brilliant point. So Steve,

730
00:41:20,400 --> 00:41:21,960
Speaker 1: can I take a quick break and bring you back

731
00:41:22,000 --> 00:41:23,200
Speaker 1: on the other side of it. I want to talk

732
00:41:23,239 --> 00:41:27,080
Speaker 1: to you about these like Venezuelan gangs in Colorado and

733
00:41:27,120 --> 00:41:30,080
Speaker 1: then the school shooting and now of course Democrats talking

734
00:41:30,120 --> 00:41:32,360
Speaker 1: about gun controlling a couple of other things before we

735
00:41:32,400 --> 00:41:34,719
Speaker 1: pop smoke. Is that cool? Yeah, let's do it all right,

736
00:41:34,760 --> 00:41:37,600
Speaker 1: stay right there, my friend, Yeah, Steve friend is a

737
00:41:37,600 --> 00:41:40,360
Speaker 1: great guy. Uh more with him in just a second.

738
00:41:41,800 --> 00:41:46,480
Speaker 1: Everyone thinks they're keeping their family safe, but are you really.

739
00:41:47,080 --> 00:41:50,120
Speaker 1: Elections are in the books, but if you live in

740
00:41:50,160 --> 00:41:54,160
Speaker 1: a Democrat area, anything might happen. And if you dare

741
00:41:54,200 --> 00:41:57,640
Speaker 1: defend yourself, our twisted legal system will probably put you

742
00:41:57,719 --> 00:42:01,279
Speaker 1: behind bars while the criminal walks free. You see, they've

743
00:42:01,280 --> 00:42:04,200
Speaker 1: got us to a point where we're fighting to keep

744
00:42:04,280 --> 00:42:08,400
Speaker 1: our Second Amendment rights, yet we risk losing everything if

745
00:42:08,440 --> 00:42:12,560
Speaker 1: we actually use them. That's why over eight hundred thousand

763
00:43:24,280 --> 00:43:26,640
Speaker 1: let's let me just back up a bit a couple

764
00:43:26,719 --> 00:43:30,120
Speaker 1: of months ago leading up to the election. Like trend

765
00:43:30,160 --> 00:43:32,880
Speaker 1: de Agua, I don't know how to help you pronounced

766
00:43:32,880 --> 00:43:36,719
Speaker 1: the gang name UH is out there operating in Aurora, Colorado,

767
00:43:36,880 --> 00:43:41,279
Speaker 1: taking over apartment complexes. People started complaining about that, that

768
00:43:41,320 --> 00:43:44,120
Speaker 1: the police weren't doing anything, that the Democrat leaders in

769
00:43:44,160 --> 00:43:46,840
Speaker 1: that area weren't doing anything either, and it became a

770
00:43:46,880 --> 00:43:50,120
Speaker 1: campaign issue that Donald Trump and JD. Vance took up

771
00:43:50,160 --> 00:43:52,960
Speaker 1: and said, what the hell, this is crazy, It shouldn't happen.

772
00:43:53,200 --> 00:43:57,600
Speaker 1: We should be deporting these criminals. It's interesting to me, Steve,

773
00:43:57,840 --> 00:44:01,880
Speaker 1: that the first thing the media did, rather than actually

774
00:44:02,000 --> 00:44:07,080
Speaker 1: report what is clearly happening, we have video evidence that

775
00:44:07,120 --> 00:44:12,160
Speaker 1: it's happening, rather than report on that, they spent almost

776
00:44:12,200 --> 00:44:14,879
Speaker 1: all of their time trying to convince people that it

777
00:44:14,920 --> 00:44:18,000
Speaker 1: was a lie, and of course it wasn't. And we

778
00:44:18,080 --> 00:44:21,080
Speaker 1: just find out today that not only are these these

779
00:44:21,280 --> 00:44:25,560
Speaker 1: violent Venezuelan gangs still operating, taking taking over hotels and

780
00:44:26,560 --> 00:44:29,840
Speaker 1: other apartment buildings, that they're actually tying people up and

781
00:44:30,960 --> 00:44:35,759
Speaker 1: stabbing them and committing horrific crimes. It's situations completely out

782
00:44:35,760 --> 00:44:40,040
Speaker 1: of control. So what's your take on all of this.

783
00:44:41,440 --> 00:44:43,799
Speaker 2: The narrative is always three steps. We're in step two

784
00:44:43,880 --> 00:44:46,560
Speaker 2: right now. The first step is it's not happening. You're

785
00:44:46,560 --> 00:44:49,239
Speaker 2: a conspiracy theorist. Why are you saying that that's irresponsible?

786
00:44:49,520 --> 00:44:52,120
Speaker 2: Step two is, yes, it's happening, but it's not that

787
00:44:52,200 --> 00:44:54,560
Speaker 2: big of a deal. And step three is going to be, yes,

788
00:44:54,560 --> 00:44:56,400
Speaker 2: it's happening and it's a good thing. You're just a

789
00:44:56,480 --> 00:44:59,160
Speaker 2: racist for pointing it out that it's possibly about. It'll

790
00:44:59,160 --> 00:45:01,040
Speaker 2: be interesting to see that try to I don't know

791
00:45:01,120 --> 00:45:06,920
Speaker 2: square that circle on these, but is a transnational organized

792
00:45:07,000 --> 00:45:12,279
Speaker 2: criminal organization that's TOC talk transnational organized crime. That's a

793
00:45:12,360 --> 00:45:15,880
Speaker 2: particular violation that the FBI has entire squads that are about.

794
00:45:16,160 --> 00:45:19,040
Speaker 2: You should have the federal resources there to assist with

795
00:45:19,080 --> 00:45:22,719
Speaker 2: the Aurora Police Department, the state authorities that are there.

796
00:45:22,800 --> 00:45:25,640
Speaker 2: There's no reason why this can't be addressed. And look,

797
00:45:25,680 --> 00:45:28,319
Speaker 2: I'm I'm kind of been skeptical of whether or not

798
00:45:28,400 --> 00:45:31,920
Speaker 2: the task Force should be allowed to continue because it's

799
00:45:31,920 --> 00:45:35,520
Speaker 2: typically abused to circumvent the various restrictions that one agency

800
00:45:35,600 --> 00:45:38,040
Speaker 2: might have to use your buddy because he doesn't have them.

801
00:45:38,480 --> 00:45:40,960
Speaker 2: But I think with the incoming Trump administration, they should

802
00:45:41,000 --> 00:45:45,960
Speaker 2: really consider leveraging Department of Homeland Security with under Tom

803
00:45:46,000 --> 00:45:51,799
Speaker 2: Holman and have a DHS component to all of these

804
00:45:51,880 --> 00:45:55,000
Speaker 2: different task forces so that hey, we're investigating I don't

805
00:45:55,000 --> 00:45:56,279
Speaker 2: I don't even care what it is. It could be

806
00:45:56,400 --> 00:45:59,600
Speaker 2: child exploitation, it could be public corruption, whatever it is.

807
00:46:00,080 --> 00:46:03,800
Speaker 2: If there is an element that is pertaining to illegal aliens,

808
00:46:04,080 --> 00:46:07,200
Speaker 2: you have a DHS person right there and just kick

809
00:46:07,239 --> 00:46:09,560
Speaker 2: him out of the country. Solves the entire problem. We

810
00:46:09,600 --> 00:46:12,160
Speaker 2: don't need to worry about furthering this investigation. If you're

811
00:46:12,120 --> 00:46:15,319
Speaker 2: investigating drugs or this violent gang here, there's no reason

812
00:46:15,320 --> 00:46:17,960
Speaker 2: why we have to carry forward a complex investigation that's

813
00:46:18,000 --> 00:46:20,080
Speaker 2: going to take three or four years to build up

814
00:46:20,120 --> 00:46:24,680
Speaker 2: all the evidence. He's illegal. He's gone. God, it's immediately not.

815
00:46:25,080 --> 00:46:27,360
Speaker 2: That's the sort of approach that hopefully there's going to

816
00:46:27,400 --> 00:46:31,000
Speaker 2: be an appetite for. I think there is from the

817
00:46:31,040 --> 00:46:34,600
Speaker 2: America first sort of wing of the Republican Party that's

818
00:46:34,640 --> 00:46:37,920
Speaker 2: taken over the control of it, and then again back

819
00:46:37,960 --> 00:46:41,200
Speaker 2: into the theory of it. I wasn't sure about the

820
00:46:41,239 --> 00:46:44,040
Speaker 2: selection of Christyme to head up Department of Home and Security.

821
00:46:44,080 --> 00:46:46,799
Speaker 2: I mean, it's a larger agency than our entire state, right,

822
00:46:47,440 --> 00:46:50,520
Speaker 2: But I think if you put on the articulate pretty

823
00:46:50,520 --> 00:46:53,520
Speaker 2: face to all the stories that are to go out

824
00:46:53,560 --> 00:46:56,560
Speaker 2: about Abuela who's ninety years old and you can't separate

825
00:46:56,560 --> 00:46:59,360
Speaker 2: her from her great granddaughter who's working three jobs at

826
00:46:59,400 --> 00:47:01,680
Speaker 2: minimum wage. Because I Buila doesn't get free healthcare in

827
00:47:01,719 --> 00:47:04,640
Speaker 2: this horrible country that we live in. That stories are

828
00:47:04,640 --> 00:47:06,080
Speaker 2: going to be out there from this media. They already

829
00:47:06,080 --> 00:47:09,600
Speaker 2: at that message going, and we have to Buila has

830
00:47:09,640 --> 00:47:11,279
Speaker 2: to go. She's gonna have to be taken down on

831
00:47:11,320 --> 00:47:13,120
Speaker 2: Southern Boarder and she's gonna have to march. Even if

832
00:47:13,120 --> 00:47:15,840
Speaker 2: she's missing a leg from her diabetes. It doesn't matter.

833
00:47:16,000 --> 00:47:18,640
Speaker 2: She came in illegal and that's a tough message to sell,

834
00:47:18,719 --> 00:47:21,400
Speaker 2: but maybe Christinot can do that. And the last thing

835
00:47:21,400 --> 00:47:24,680
Speaker 2: I'll say with the illegal alien connection to this is

836
00:47:25,160 --> 00:47:28,960
Speaker 2: these people were kidnapped. There's going to be trafficking involved

837
00:47:28,960 --> 00:47:31,839
Speaker 2: with it, children trafficking involved with it, and that's a

838
00:47:31,840 --> 00:47:33,759
Speaker 2: way we can get the win on this one. For

839
00:47:33,840 --> 00:47:36,680
Speaker 2: all the sad stories about a Buila, we have half

840
00:47:36,719 --> 00:47:39,719
Speaker 2: a million missing children at this point and there needs

841
00:47:39,719 --> 00:47:41,640
Speaker 2: to be a priority placed on that.

842
00:47:43,320 --> 00:47:46,040
Speaker 1: She made so many good points there and I've been

843
00:47:46,040 --> 00:47:49,640
Speaker 1: telling people get ready because the moment that this deportation

844
00:47:49,800 --> 00:47:52,120
Speaker 1: operation begins, you were going to be on the receiving

845
00:47:52,239 --> 00:47:56,799
Speaker 1: end of the biggest propaganda operation that we've ever seen

846
00:47:56,880 --> 00:47:58,800
Speaker 1: here in this country, just trying to kick these people

847
00:47:58,800 --> 00:48:01,000
Speaker 1: out of here. And you're exactly right, it's gonna be

848
00:48:01,000 --> 00:48:05,080
Speaker 1: about Buela who doesn't have healthcare. But it's been here

849
00:48:05,120 --> 00:48:07,600
Speaker 1: all our life. It's Gonnas one hundred percent what it's

850
00:48:07,600 --> 00:48:11,800
Speaker 1: gonna be. But like, my very simple question is why

851
00:48:11,840 --> 00:48:15,480
Speaker 1: isn't the FBI doing anything about these violent transnational criminal

852
00:48:15,560 --> 00:48:16,760
Speaker 1: organizations right now?

853
00:48:18,239 --> 00:48:22,560
Speaker 2: It's a priorities issue, right like they have their metrics,

854
00:48:22,600 --> 00:48:25,360
Speaker 2: they have their quota system, but there's also the political

855
00:48:25,520 --> 00:48:29,279
Speaker 2: narrative that's going forward. And then it's government workers. We

856
00:48:29,320 --> 00:48:33,320
Speaker 2: are in December. There's nothing that's going to happen in December.

857
00:48:33,800 --> 00:48:37,200
Speaker 2: Even from the federal prosecutors' offices. They're not working. It's

858
00:48:37,280 --> 00:48:40,920
Speaker 2: Christmas holidays. Basically, the month of December is entirely lost.

859
00:48:41,280 --> 00:48:43,399
Speaker 2: If there's any work that's going on right now, it's

860
00:48:43,560 --> 00:48:45,560
Speaker 2: preparation for the coup that they're going to have for

861
00:48:45,640 --> 00:48:48,840
Speaker 2: cash Btel when he gets nominated to be the director.

862
00:48:49,160 --> 00:48:52,120
Speaker 2: And look, I have my moles everywhere and this was

863
00:48:52,160 --> 00:48:55,719
Speaker 2: even reported I was getting it, so it's double sourced. Uh.

864
00:48:55,880 --> 00:48:57,440
Speaker 2: The coup that is in place.

865
00:48:57,280 --> 00:48:59,239
Speaker 1: Is tell us all about it.

866
00:49:00,040 --> 00:49:03,360
Speaker 2: Christopher Ray's resigning. When Biden leaves office, you'll have Paula

867
00:49:03,400 --> 00:49:05,799
Speaker 2: Bate who will ascend to become the acting director of

868
00:49:05,840 --> 00:49:09,359
Speaker 2: the FBI. They are promoting a bunch of people right

869
00:49:09,400 --> 00:49:12,400
Speaker 2: now into senior executive services positions so that they'll be

870
00:49:12,440 --> 00:49:16,040
Speaker 2: harder to remove. The plan is that they're going to

871
00:49:16,080 --> 00:49:17,800
Speaker 2: try to get as many people into that sort of

872
00:49:17,960 --> 00:49:23,200
Speaker 2: leadership or management role as possible. They will then stonewall

873
00:49:23,280 --> 00:49:25,200
Speaker 2: cash hotel and say, sorry, you can't come in, you

874
00:49:25,200 --> 00:49:27,520
Speaker 2: don't have a security clearance. We having cleargy for security

875
00:49:27,840 --> 00:49:30,920
Speaker 2: for three to four months. And then finally when he

876
00:49:30,960 --> 00:49:33,440
Speaker 2: gets in, they're going to task him with so many

877
00:49:33,920 --> 00:49:36,359
Speaker 2: sort of ceremonial things that he just won't be able

878
00:49:36,360 --> 00:49:37,800
Speaker 2: to do work, Like they'll say, you have to go

879
00:49:37,920 --> 00:49:40,160
Speaker 2: visit all fifty five field offices, you have to do

880
00:49:40,239 --> 00:49:42,279
Speaker 2: this public event in this one and that one and

881
00:49:42,320 --> 00:49:44,399
Speaker 2: that way. He's so distracted that is already a year

882
00:49:44,440 --> 00:49:47,080
Speaker 2: has gone by before he's able to do anything. And

883
00:49:47,120 --> 00:49:49,000
Speaker 2: then they're presuming that they're going to have some sort

884
00:49:49,000 --> 00:49:52,759
Speaker 2: of win in the midterms. Now, operational security stinks for

885
00:49:52,840 --> 00:49:55,440
Speaker 2: the FBI, as does their planning, because their coup was

886
00:49:55,480 --> 00:49:58,160
Speaker 2: revealed to me and to others ahead of time. And

887
00:49:58,200 --> 00:50:01,360
Speaker 2: also they don't know that cash Buttel already has a

888
00:50:01,360 --> 00:50:03,520
Speaker 2: top secret security clearance, so that's not going to be

889
00:50:03,560 --> 00:50:05,239
Speaker 2: an issue. He's going to be able to walk in

890
00:50:05,320 --> 00:50:07,640
Speaker 2: and do that. But the fact that they're planning for this,

891
00:50:07,880 --> 00:50:11,560
Speaker 2: their planning to obstruct, is to me the greatest indication

892
00:50:11,719 --> 00:50:15,080
Speaker 2: that the seventh floor of the Jaeger Hoover Building has

893
00:50:15,120 --> 00:50:20,080
Speaker 2: to be completely fumigated. Your prime directive is the institution

894
00:50:20,680 --> 00:50:23,799
Speaker 2: of the FBI over the Constitution that you theoretically swore

895
00:50:23,800 --> 00:50:26,759
Speaker 2: an oath to protect. And the constitution is supposed to

896
00:50:27,200 --> 00:50:30,840
Speaker 2: allow the executive branch the purview to select the leadership

897
00:50:30,840 --> 00:50:33,200
Speaker 2: there and the direction of the agency. As long as

898
00:50:33,200 --> 00:50:36,440
Speaker 2: it's not in conflict with the law or anything that's

899
00:50:36,480 --> 00:50:39,719
Speaker 2: immoral or the Constitution, then it's your job to go

900
00:50:39,800 --> 00:50:42,040
Speaker 2: forward with that. But they're not doing that. They want

901
00:50:42,080 --> 00:50:44,759
Speaker 2: to protect the institution of the FBI. Even CHRISTA. Ray

902
00:50:44,760 --> 00:50:48,239
Speaker 2: and his farewell address said that the top priority of

903
00:50:48,280 --> 00:50:50,560
Speaker 2: the FBI is to do the work of the FBI,

904
00:50:51,000 --> 00:50:53,960
Speaker 2: not protect the American people, not uphold the rule of law.

905
00:50:54,080 --> 00:50:56,520
Speaker 2: Or constitution. It's to do the work of the FBI,

906
00:50:56,600 --> 00:50:59,360
Speaker 2: which is in continuing the growth of the FBI.

907
00:51:00,480 --> 00:51:03,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a great that is a that is absolutely

908
00:51:03,719 --> 00:51:10,320
Speaker 1: crazy to me that that organization seems so unbelievably lost.

909
00:51:10,600 --> 00:51:13,680
Speaker 1: And I often wonder because I'm sure, I mean, you're

910
00:51:13,680 --> 00:51:16,840
Speaker 1: a patriot. I'm sure there are other patriots that work there, Steve,

911
00:51:17,680 --> 00:51:20,960
Speaker 1: But what exactly do they protect us from? Because it

912
00:51:21,000 --> 00:51:24,560
Speaker 1: seems like they're arresting people protesting outside of abortion clinics.

913
00:51:25,160 --> 00:51:30,440
Speaker 1: It seems like they're investigating moms who dare to protest

914
00:51:30,560 --> 00:51:33,960
Speaker 1: curriculum at their schools. Like when was the last time

915
00:51:33,960 --> 00:51:37,759
Speaker 1: they actually stopped an active shooter like this, this act,

916
00:51:37,840 --> 00:51:40,880
Speaker 1: this active showing which, look, I know it's tough to

917
00:51:40,920 --> 00:51:42,799
Speaker 1: stop some of this stuff, you know, I get it,

918
00:51:43,160 --> 00:51:46,120
Speaker 1: But I can't tell you how many times I've I've heard, well,

919
00:51:46,160 --> 00:51:49,000
Speaker 1: this person was on the FBI was watching this person.

920
00:51:49,120 --> 00:51:51,680
Speaker 1: They were known to the FBI, but ultimately they didn't

921
00:51:51,680 --> 00:51:53,920
Speaker 1: do anything to stop it. And so you have another

922
00:51:54,239 --> 00:51:59,080
Speaker 1: active shooter in a school in Wisconsin, and I mean,

923
00:51:59,320 --> 00:52:01,279
Speaker 1: I'm just waiting on baited breath to hear that, Yeah,

924
00:52:01,320 --> 00:52:03,799
Speaker 1: the FBI was watching this young lady as well.

925
00:52:05,440 --> 00:52:08,399
Speaker 2: I give maximum latitude on the FBI on that one.

926
00:52:08,520 --> 00:52:10,759
Speaker 2: Normally because of the volume they get, like thirty five

927
00:52:10,840 --> 00:52:13,840
Speaker 2: hundred tips a day, and they should not be opening

928
00:52:13,840 --> 00:52:16,920
Speaker 2: cases because they're the jerk police, like, oh, my neighbor

929
00:52:17,000 --> 00:52:19,080
Speaker 2: are he's got a MAGA flag, you should look at him.

930
00:52:19,440 --> 00:52:22,920
Speaker 2: But they do and they yeah, but that's the person

931
00:52:22,920 --> 00:52:25,600
Speaker 2: that who's on their radar at this this point. Now,

932
00:52:25,920 --> 00:52:27,759
Speaker 2: what I will say that the most one of the

933
00:52:27,760 --> 00:52:30,359
Speaker 2: most troubling things is that the FBI's perspective is that

934
00:52:30,480 --> 00:52:34,279
Speaker 2: guns are a bad thing. They do not believe that

935
00:52:34,280 --> 00:52:36,080
Speaker 2: you should have a First Amendment or a Second Amendment

936
00:52:36,120 --> 00:52:38,480
Speaker 2: for that matter. I mean, they have the matrix for SWAT.

937
00:52:38,680 --> 00:52:40,520
Speaker 2: Guns are present, they can set a SWAT team to

938
00:52:40,520 --> 00:52:42,439
Speaker 2: come get you. Even tho if you're a law buying

939
00:52:42,440 --> 00:52:45,080
Speaker 2: system with not a criminal record and a theoretical constitutional

940
00:52:45,160 --> 00:52:47,440
Speaker 2: right to own a firearm. If you are a subject

941
00:52:47,480 --> 00:52:50,120
Speaker 2: of investigation and they're going to arrest you and they

942
00:52:50,280 --> 00:52:53,080
Speaker 2: know that you have a gun, SWAT is authorized, they

943
00:52:53,120 --> 00:52:55,800
Speaker 2: can use SWAT. They do not believe.

944
00:52:55,800 --> 00:52:59,399
Speaker 1: Scane to me, why why would that even be a thing?

945
00:52:59,400 --> 00:53:01,719
Speaker 1: I Mean, the Second Amendment is a right granted to you,

946
00:53:01,800 --> 00:53:05,680
Speaker 1: By God, why would that even be. I mean, everybody

947
00:53:05,680 --> 00:53:09,000
Speaker 1: should theoretically have a I mean that's how they everybody

948
00:53:09,000 --> 00:53:11,279
Speaker 1: should They should operate like that with everybody, right. I

949
00:53:11,280 --> 00:53:12,319
Speaker 1: mean it seems crazy to me.

950
00:53:12,600 --> 00:53:15,799
Speaker 2: It's just an enhancement of the FBI's perspective because they

951
00:53:15,800 --> 00:53:18,759
Speaker 2: don't view the American people as their customer or the

952
00:53:18,760 --> 00:53:21,640
Speaker 2: people they're supposed to be duty bound to protect. They

953
00:53:21,719 --> 00:53:24,120
Speaker 2: view them as an opportunity or as a threat. And

954
00:53:24,160 --> 00:53:26,560
Speaker 2: that starts very early in the training process. I mean,

955
00:53:26,600 --> 00:53:28,279
Speaker 2: you go through the academy. It was my second time

956
00:53:28,280 --> 00:53:30,480
Speaker 2: through a police academy, so I was just kind of, hey,

957
00:53:30,480 --> 00:53:31,879
Speaker 2: stay in the middle of the herd. I don't want

958
00:53:31,880 --> 00:53:35,239
Speaker 2: any attention. But seeing them go at people who had

959
00:53:35,280 --> 00:53:39,920
Speaker 2: no law enforcement background with the most absurd scenarios possible

960
00:53:39,960 --> 00:53:42,480
Speaker 2: to geek them up so that they thought at all

961
00:53:42,560 --> 00:53:44,800
Speaker 2: times they were at risk. I mean, you go into Quantico.

962
00:53:44,880 --> 00:53:46,920
Speaker 2: They have an area called Hogan's Alley, which is a

963
00:53:46,960 --> 00:53:50,360
Speaker 2: fake city with houses that you can clear and businesses

964
00:53:50,360 --> 00:53:52,800
Speaker 2: and all that. It's very good opportunity for very good training.

965
00:53:53,239 --> 00:53:55,239
Speaker 2: But you will go and clear a house and there

966
00:53:55,280 --> 00:53:58,759
Speaker 2: would be hidden walls that people would pop out of

967
00:53:59,280 --> 00:54:01,080
Speaker 2: to shoot you in the the head, so they could say, oh,

968
00:54:01,160 --> 00:54:03,919
Speaker 2: you got to be aware that I should pull down

969
00:54:03,920 --> 00:54:05,719
Speaker 2: the lamp and then the wall will swung open like

970
00:54:05,719 --> 00:54:09,120
Speaker 2: it's an Abina Costello movie. This is sure people think

971
00:54:09,120 --> 00:54:11,120
Speaker 2: that ninjas are gonna come out of the ceiling. And

972
00:54:11,239 --> 00:54:13,919
Speaker 2: an extension of that is the firearm. You would walk

973
00:54:13,920 --> 00:54:15,640
Speaker 2: into a room and there would be a firearm in

974
00:54:15,680 --> 00:54:18,160
Speaker 2: the corner, and they had people so concerned that they

975
00:54:18,160 --> 00:54:21,800
Speaker 2: would immediately draw their weapon, and people who are experienced

976
00:54:21,840 --> 00:54:24,360
Speaker 2: like me would say, hey, what kind of shotgun you

977
00:54:24,360 --> 00:54:26,560
Speaker 2: got there? Right, that's a point where I could build

978
00:54:26,600 --> 00:54:28,960
Speaker 2: rapport with this person, But they don't want that. They

979
00:54:28,960 --> 00:54:30,840
Speaker 2: want you to be in a situation where you're the

980
00:54:30,880 --> 00:54:34,400
Speaker 2: gun in the room and anyone who has another firearm

981
00:54:34,520 --> 00:54:35,600
Speaker 2: is not a friend.

982
00:54:36,640 --> 00:54:40,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean that what you see that reflected in

983
00:54:40,480 --> 00:54:43,480
Speaker 1: some of these tragedies where SWAT shows up on the

984
00:54:43,480 --> 00:54:45,680
Speaker 1: scene and shoots somebody that shows up at their door

985
00:54:45,680 --> 00:54:48,400
Speaker 1: at four am with a shotgun. And talk to some

986
00:54:48,480 --> 00:54:51,400
Speaker 1: of my other buddies who've got lifetime experiences in SWAT.

987
00:54:51,440 --> 00:54:54,200
Speaker 1: But they're like on actual police departments like in Syracuse

988
00:54:54,239 --> 00:54:57,080
Speaker 1: and other places, and they're like horrified by some of

989
00:54:57,120 --> 00:55:00,759
Speaker 1: those tactics that the FBI uses like that because just

990
00:55:00,800 --> 00:55:03,840
Speaker 1: like you said, like they see you know, a gun

991
00:55:03,960 --> 00:55:05,960
Speaker 1: or a handgun or something like that as an opportunity

992
00:55:05,960 --> 00:55:08,480
Speaker 1: to have a conversation and are always looking to d escalate,

993
00:55:08,520 --> 00:55:12,000
Speaker 1: d escala, d escalate. That is definitely not what the

994
00:55:12,080 --> 00:55:17,640
Speaker 1: FBI does. It's it's definitely not what they do. So Steve,

995

1034
00:57:16,600 --> 00:57:21,000
Speaker 1: endless wars, and the relentless assault on our values. Thankfully,

1035
00:57:21,440 --> 00:57:25,840
Speaker 1: there's companies like Patriot Mobile that still believe in America

Speaker 1: values or have the same coverage. They don't, and they

1052
00:58:30,680 --> 00:58:36,280
Speaker 1: can't switch to America's only Christian conservative mobile provider, and

1053
00:58:36,320 --> 00:58:41,440
Speaker 1: that's Patriot Mobile. Okay, before we go, I've got to

1054
00:58:41,520 --> 00:58:44,840
Speaker 1: talk about, just very quickly, the dangers of activist judges.

1055
00:58:44,880 --> 00:58:46,400
Speaker 1: Of course, we talk about this shit all the time.

1056
00:58:46,480 --> 00:58:50,200
Speaker 1: Democrats are an existential threat to this country. Democrats in

1057
00:58:50,320 --> 00:58:53,960
Speaker 1: Washington and activist democrats on the bench are also a

1058
00:58:54,040 --> 00:58:57,400
Speaker 1: danger to this country. They and we have a real

1059
00:58:57,640 --> 00:59:02,560
Speaker 1: Democrat judge activist problem in America. You see that with

1060
00:59:02,680 --> 00:59:06,240
Speaker 1: Mershawn Juan Marshan, the Kamie Bastard in the black robe

1061
00:59:06,240 --> 00:59:12,520
Speaker 1: in New York. Todayjan Marshon rejected President elect Donald Trump's

1062
00:59:12,520 --> 00:59:16,080
Speaker 1: motion to dismiss his hus his hush money conviction. A

1063
00:59:16,160 --> 00:59:18,800
Speaker 1: ruling that's the Supreme Court's decision on the president on

1064
00:59:18,880 --> 00:59:23,480
Speaker 1: presidential immunity does not apply. So Wan Mareschon denied Trump's

1065
00:59:23,480 --> 00:59:26,320
Speaker 1: request to overturn his May conviction, arguing the Supreme Court's

1066
00:59:26,320 --> 00:59:33,680
Speaker 1: immunity ruling doesn't protect pre presidency conduct. Trump's defense cited

1067
00:59:33,720 --> 00:59:37,640
Speaker 1: Trump the United States, where the Supreme Court affirmed broad

1068
00:59:37,640 --> 00:59:42,800
Speaker 1: immunity for official presidential acts, and Trump's spokesman called the

1069
00:59:42,880 --> 00:59:47,720
Speaker 1: ruling a direct violation of the Constitution, arguing that the

1070
00:59:47,760 --> 00:59:53,040
Speaker 1: case obstructs Trump's transition to the presidency. And President Trump

1071
00:59:53,040 --> 00:59:56,760
Speaker 1: spoke out about this today as well, and of course, folks,

1072
00:59:57,080 --> 01:00:02,200
Speaker 1: he was absolutely right. This isn't a bomb in the law.

1073
01:00:02,240 --> 01:00:07,960
Speaker 1: There is over you communists, bastards lost. And again I'm

1074
01:00:07,960 --> 01:00:10,200
Speaker 1: going to harken back to something that I said yesterday.

1075
01:00:11,360 --> 01:00:16,760
Speaker 1: President Trump is handling this transition with extraordinary grace employees,

1076
01:00:17,280 --> 01:00:19,240
Speaker 1: far more than I think I would be able to do,

1077
01:00:19,400 --> 01:00:21,480
Speaker 1: or actually your ordinary American would be able to do.

1078
01:00:22,400 --> 01:00:24,840
Speaker 1: I mean, these people tried to destroy his life, thrown

1079
01:00:24,960 --> 01:00:28,000
Speaker 1: in prisons, use the power of government to steal his businesses,

1080
01:00:28,080 --> 01:00:32,000
Speaker 1: go after his family. And President Trump continues to say,

1081
01:00:32,400 --> 01:00:36,920
Speaker 1: the best revenge is success. But again, my advice and

1082
01:00:36,960 --> 01:00:38,959
Speaker 1: counselor to the president, and of course he didn't ask

1083
01:00:39,040 --> 01:00:42,680
Speaker 1: for it, but I'm always compelled to give it. This

1084
01:00:42,800 --> 01:00:49,160
Speaker 1: country can't move forward, this country cannot be unified. We

1085
01:00:49,200 --> 01:00:53,560
Speaker 1: all want unity, we all want one America again. But

1086
01:00:53,680 --> 01:00:57,520
Speaker 1: this country cannot be unified unless there is some serious

1087
01:00:57,960 --> 01:01:02,520
Speaker 1: accountability for the purpose traders who had a hand in

1088
01:01:02,560 --> 01:01:09,040
Speaker 1: destroying this country and destroying the trust and once venerated institutions.

1089
01:01:09,680 --> 01:01:16,120
Speaker 1: That accountability must happen. And look the deep state and

1090
01:01:16,240 --> 01:01:19,520
Speaker 1: some of these hostile actors within our own government. I'm sorry,

1091
01:01:19,560 --> 01:01:23,920
Speaker 1: but they know that they're that they did wrong. Why

1092
01:01:24,000 --> 01:01:29,920
Speaker 1: else stage a coup against cash Battel by promoting radical

1093
01:01:30,000 --> 01:01:32,920
Speaker 1: leftists in the senior executive service positions to make them

1094
01:01:32,920 --> 01:01:36,880
Speaker 1: harder to fire? If you if you thought everything was fine,

1095
01:01:37,640 --> 01:01:40,560
Speaker 1: you do that because you know you've been operating outside

1096
01:01:40,600 --> 01:01:45,120
Speaker 1: the law. So listen, folks, We've got some serious house

1097
01:01:45,120 --> 01:01:46,640
Speaker 1: cleaning to do in a couple of months. And I

1098
01:01:46,680 --> 01:01:48,040
Speaker 1: want you all to do something for me. I want

1099
01:01:48,040 --> 01:01:51,080
Speaker 1: you all to pray for President Trump, Pray for his transition,

1100
01:01:51,600 --> 01:01:54,520
Speaker 1: Pray for cash Battel, continue to pray for this country

1101
01:01:55,560 --> 01:01:58,600
Speaker 1: because we need you. The country needs you, President Trump

1102
01:01:58,640 --> 01:02:02,240
Speaker 1: needs you. Every single warrior for the Trump administration is

1103
01:02:02,240 --> 01:02:06,400
Speaker 1: going to need you as well. And so tomorrow shift

1104
01:02:06,400 --> 01:02:10,000
Speaker 1: gears to Tomorrow. Tomorrow is savage Wednesday. We've got savage
