1 00:00:03,760 --> 00:00:11,760 Speaker 1: It's that time time, time, luck and load. The Michael 2 00:00:11,840 --> 00:00:13,840 Speaker 1: Varry Show is on the air. 3 00:00:30,240 --> 00:00:33,960 Speaker 2: So many things that excite me about the Trump presidents. 4 00:00:34,880 --> 00:00:38,879 Speaker 2: I've used the sports analogy. When the Astros won the 5 00:00:38,920 --> 00:00:41,360 Speaker 2: World Series in twenty seventeen, it was the first time 6 00:00:41,920 --> 00:00:47,239 Speaker 2: Astros fans, Houston baseball fans had had a championship. When 7 00:00:47,240 --> 00:00:49,440 Speaker 2: the Rockets won in the mid nineties, was the first 8 00:00:49,440 --> 00:00:53,520 Speaker 2: time Houston had won a national championship. But the next day, 9 00:00:53,560 --> 00:00:56,760 Speaker 2: nothing changes. You just get a good feeling. When you 10 00:00:56,800 --> 00:00:59,840 Speaker 2: win the White House, you can reach out to Putin 11 00:01:00,640 --> 00:01:05,839 Speaker 2: and say, let's negotiate an end to the war forthwith 12 00:01:06,720 --> 00:01:09,760 Speaker 2: I believe Putin wants an exit strategy the ground and 13 00:01:09,880 --> 00:01:16,319 Speaker 2: pound long term game. Eventually Russia just exhausts you. But 14 00:01:16,440 --> 00:01:19,920 Speaker 2: I think Putin wants a way out, and I think 15 00:01:19,920 --> 00:01:23,080 Speaker 2: he wants back in the international community, and I think 16 00:01:23,120 --> 00:01:26,720 Speaker 2: Trump gives him the opportunity to end that, which means, 17 00:01:26,720 --> 00:01:28,920 Speaker 2: among other things, we don't have to send your billions 18 00:01:28,959 --> 00:01:31,839 Speaker 2: of dollars there. We don't have to send your boys 19 00:01:31,840 --> 00:01:36,120 Speaker 2: in mind to get killed as cannon fodder on the 20 00:01:36,720 --> 00:01:40,440 Speaker 2: planes of the Ukraine. Hamas is already called for an 21 00:01:40,560 --> 00:01:45,240 Speaker 2: end to everything they could, they can end this. They're 22 00:01:45,240 --> 00:01:46,840 Speaker 2: going to have to hand some people over. There's going 23 00:01:46,880 --> 00:01:49,920 Speaker 2: to be some retribution. Israel's not walking away that easily, 24 00:01:50,160 --> 00:01:53,200 Speaker 2: not after what they've suffered. You can calm that zone down, 25 00:01:53,200 --> 00:01:56,200 Speaker 2: your two biggest hotspots in the world. You know what 26 00:01:56,280 --> 00:02:01,480 Speaker 2: else happened yesterday They dropped the Jackson Smith prosecution of 27 00:02:01,520 --> 00:02:02,200 Speaker 2: Donald Trump. 28 00:02:03,040 --> 00:02:03,920 Speaker 1: So that happened. 29 00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:06,080 Speaker 2: So we can stop that nonsense, and we'll get to 30 00:02:06,160 --> 00:02:09,919 Speaker 2: Letitia James the ag of New York in a moment. 31 00:02:10,400 --> 00:02:14,880 Speaker 2: You know what else has to happen. Every person on 32 00:02:15,120 --> 00:02:23,040 Speaker 2: site on January sixth will be pardoned. That has to happen. Absolutely. 33 00:02:23,760 --> 00:02:26,600 Speaker 2: I find it interesting that people are calling for a 34 00:02:26,639 --> 00:02:32,239 Speaker 2: pardon for Hunter Biden more than they are a pardon 35 00:02:32,280 --> 00:02:36,040 Speaker 2: for people who did nothing more then walk over to 36 00:02:36,080 --> 00:02:40,880 Speaker 2: the Capitol. They weren't armed, they never struck anyone or anything, 37 00:02:41,840 --> 00:02:47,360 Speaker 2: they never caused any violence, and yet the doors were 38 00:02:47,440 --> 00:02:50,240 Speaker 2: kicked down and they were sent to prison. That's an 39 00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:54,200 Speaker 2: awful place to be. Lendon Mitchell is just one of 40 00:02:54,240 --> 00:02:59,680 Speaker 2: those people landed there. So I understand that you were 41 00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:04,680 Speaker 2: a pest control guy working in the Arlington, Virginia, Washington, 42 00:03:04,760 --> 00:03:08,840 Speaker 2: DC area. Your mom was an Army lieutenant colonel stationed 43 00:03:08,840 --> 00:03:13,639 Speaker 2: at the Pentagon and Capitol Hill, and you had been 44 00:03:13,680 --> 00:03:16,200 Speaker 2: living there because of her. How old were you on 45 00:03:16,320 --> 00:03:20,440 Speaker 2: January sixth, twenty twenty one? About thirty three thirty one? 46 00:03:20,520 --> 00:03:24,600 Speaker 1: I guess yes, I was about oh, January sixth thirty. 47 00:03:24,720 --> 00:03:28,240 Speaker 2: Okay, So all right, and give me about a forty 48 00:03:28,240 --> 00:03:30,720 Speaker 2: five second wrap up of your life. What was going on? 49 00:03:30,760 --> 00:03:33,960 Speaker 2: Did you have a girl? Obviously you're working in pest control. 50 00:03:34,240 --> 00:03:35,680 Speaker 2: What was going on in your life? 51 00:03:36,240 --> 00:03:39,160 Speaker 1: Well, you know, I was just I was just busy. 52 00:03:39,360 --> 00:03:42,040 Speaker 1: I was busy every day. I had made it a 53 00:03:42,080 --> 00:03:47,040 Speaker 1: point to make myself as valuable as possible to the job. Yeah, 54 00:03:47,160 --> 00:03:52,720 Speaker 1: I had a girlfriend. It was just a casual thing. Yeah, 55 00:03:52,960 --> 00:03:56,800 Speaker 1: it wasn't nothing serious. But up until that point, yeah, 56 00:03:56,840 --> 00:03:59,720 Speaker 1: I was just exploring the city, just trying to make 57 00:03:59,760 --> 00:04:00,360 Speaker 1: my life. 58 00:04:01,080 --> 00:04:05,840 Speaker 2: And so you wrote the reason you were there at 59 00:04:05,920 --> 00:04:09,880 Speaker 2: January sixth that you wanted to see your president and 60 00:04:09,960 --> 00:04:13,160 Speaker 2: protest the steel So you were there at President Trump's 61 00:04:13,200 --> 00:04:15,800 Speaker 2: speech before walking over to the Capitol right, tell me 62 00:04:15,840 --> 00:04:16,920 Speaker 2: about that day for you? 63 00:04:19,040 --> 00:04:23,839 Speaker 1: Oh? Man, it was it was. It was an incredible experience, 64 00:04:23,880 --> 00:04:29,279 Speaker 1: all of it, the good, the bad. The speech was fantastic. 65 00:04:29,320 --> 00:04:31,200 Speaker 1: He had more. It was more than just him that 66 00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:35,640 Speaker 1: was up there. But I came specifically to see Trump, 67 00:04:36,520 --> 00:04:38,880 Speaker 1: and I could see him on the ellipse and got 68 00:04:38,880 --> 00:04:43,160 Speaker 1: to hear everything that he said. After that, we were 69 00:04:43,440 --> 00:04:48,320 Speaker 1: walking over to the Capitol building and everything was, man, 70 00:04:48,360 --> 00:04:51,640 Speaker 1: everything was just there was there was so much unity there. 71 00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:58,200 Speaker 1: You know, everybody was laughing, you know, singing. Uh, it 72 00:04:58,279 --> 00:04:59,520 Speaker 1: was It is a great day, man, It was just 73 00:04:59,520 --> 00:05:02,120 Speaker 1: a great day to everything else happened. 74 00:05:02,720 --> 00:05:06,479 Speaker 2: All right, let's take that in slow motion. So at 75 00:05:06,520 --> 00:05:10,120 Speaker 2: that moment that President Trump is speaking, you're not expecting 76 00:05:10,880 --> 00:05:13,120 Speaker 2: to walk over to the Capitol. You just kind of 77 00:05:13,160 --> 00:05:16,880 Speaker 2: notice people start went over to the Capitol, right, yes, sir. Which, 78 00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:19,680 Speaker 2: by the way, I've walked over to I worked in DC. 79 00:05:20,200 --> 00:05:22,599 Speaker 2: I've walked over to the capital one hundred times, walking 80 00:05:22,600 --> 00:05:25,239 Speaker 2: over to the capitals on a criminal act. Very natural. 81 00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:28,120 Speaker 2: It's the house of our governments, the people's house. So 82 00:05:28,360 --> 00:05:29,600 Speaker 2: are you with anyone else? 83 00:05:30,560 --> 00:05:32,600 Speaker 1: Uh?

You know, 91 00:05:47,920 --> 00:05:50,760 Speaker 1: we got our flags and everything, and it's a it's 92 00:05:50,760 --> 00:05:55,600 Speaker 1: a healthy walk from the Ellipse to the Capital. Once 93 00:05:55,640 --> 00:05:58,520 Speaker 1: we get over there, I'm standing across the street from 94 00:05:58,600 --> 00:06:01,480 Speaker 1: uh I guess it's the uh the backside of the 95 00:06:02,200 --> 00:06:03,640 Speaker 1: West End is I think is what they called it. 96 00:06:04,520 --> 00:06:08,920 Speaker 1: And we're just standing there chilling out. You know, we're 97 00:06:08,960 --> 00:06:12,040 Speaker 1: talking to one of my buddies little bosses and everything, 98 00:06:12,080 --> 00:06:15,120 Speaker 1: and we're probably standing there for about forty forty five 99 00:06:15,120 --> 00:06:19,560 Speaker 1: minutes before everything kind of starts going the way that 100 00:06:19,600 --> 00:06:24,719 Speaker 1: it did. Looking back on it, you know, it was 101 00:06:25,600 --> 00:06:28,400 Speaker 1: there are probably some red flags that I should have seen. 102 00:06:29,320 --> 00:06:31,240 Speaker 1: This dude comes walking up and he's got a bike 103 00:06:31,240 --> 00:06:34,120 Speaker 1: comet on with a pham mohawk on it, shoulder pads 104 00:06:34,160 --> 00:06:36,919 Speaker 1: and cargo shorts. So he walks up to me and 105 00:06:37,240 --> 00:06:40,279 Speaker 1: Luke and he goes, are you guys patriots? Are you 106 00:06:40,320 --> 00:06:43,159 Speaker 1: guys patriots? So of course the obvious answers say, yeah, 107 00:06:43,200 --> 00:06:45,839 Speaker 1: of course we are. So he's like, well, follow me. 108 00:06:46,680 --> 00:06:48,839 Speaker 1: So we're like, all right, where we're going? So we 109 00:06:48,880 --> 00:06:50,840 Speaker 1: start walking. The next thing I know, there's just this 110 00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:56,520 Speaker 1: big old crowd walking behind us, and that's when he 111 00:06:56,600 --> 00:07:01,800 Speaker 1: starts throwing up I guess signals, and then he's like, 112 00:07:01,839 --> 00:07:05,120 Speaker 1: we're going in, We're going in, and then everyone's like yeah, yeah, 113 00:07:05,400 --> 00:07:08,720 Speaker 1: so we just start rushing forward. You know. 114 00:07:09,760 --> 00:07:12,200 Speaker 2: So for people who don't know that was going to 115 00:07:12,240 --> 00:07:14,600 Speaker 2: be clear what you what you're saying. And for people 116 00:07:14,600 --> 00:07:17,800 Speaker 2: that don't know Ray Epps was one of the people 117 00:07:17,800 --> 00:07:21,680 Speaker 2: who did this. The idea was it's entrapment. There's several 118 00:07:21,960 --> 00:07:25,200 Speaker 2: there's several terms for what they did, but what you 119 00:07:25,240 --> 00:07:29,600 Speaker 2: are alleging is that these individuals were FEDS who were 120 00:07:29,640 --> 00:07:34,040 Speaker 2: there for the purpose of getting someone to do something violent, 121 00:07:34,360 --> 00:07:39,440 Speaker 2: riling people up, instigating us, and trapping them so that 122 00:07:39,520 --> 00:07:42,360 Speaker 2: they would then have a January sixth they could refer 123 00:07:42,440 --> 00:07:44,960 Speaker 2: to this day as this day, which will live in infamy, 124 00:07:45,480 --> 00:07:47,880 Speaker 2: and then they could prevent Trump from ever running again 125 00:07:47,960 --> 00:07:50,600 Speaker 2: because they knew they had just stolen the election and 126 00:07:50,720 --> 00:07:53,360 Speaker 2: this would be it's all a plan, and we sound 127 00:07:53,440 --> 00:07:58,920 Speaker 2: crazy laying it out, but it's diabolical. It's brilliant that 128 00:07:59,000 --> 00:08:01,760 Speaker 2: they pulled it all off the way they did, involving 129 00:08:02,080 --> 00:08:04,880 Speaker 2: so many people pulled with me for just a moment 130 00:08:04,960 --> 00:08:07,440 Speaker 2: Landon Mitchell just got out of the prison. He's been 131 00:08:07,440 --> 00:08:10,800 Speaker 2: in prison all this time. He just got out, and 132 00:08:10,880 --> 00:08:14,640 Speaker 2: he's moved to Beaumont, and he's Beaumont, Texas, and he's actuast. 133 00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:19,000 Speaker 1: At least chairs keep rolling around. 134 00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:26,920 Speaker 2: Damn it all right, this is Mark Chestnut Enjoy Bizaar. 135 00:08:26,720 --> 00:08:27,720 Speaker 1: Of Talk Radio. 136 00:08:29,760 --> 00:08:34,280 Speaker 2: I had some friends that had chartered a plane to 137 00:08:34,440 --> 00:08:38,480 Speaker 2: see President Trump speak on January sixth. Go to the event. 138 00:08:39,320 --> 00:08:43,200 Speaker 2: Business owners well to do, certainly not insurrectionists, one of 139 00:08:43,200 --> 00:08:46,760 Speaker 2: whom was a doctor, one of whom has a booming 140 00:08:46,840 --> 00:08:49,200 Speaker 2: business of millions of dollars a year and probably one 141 00:08:49,240 --> 00:08:52,240 Speaker 2: hundred employees. These are fat cats. They don't want to 142 00:08:52,320 --> 00:08:55,920 Speaker 2: risk anything. The last thing they're going to do. And 143 00:08:55,960 --> 00:08:57,959 Speaker 2: they said, come with us, go on plane. We'll pay 144 00:08:57,960 --> 00:09:01,040 Speaker 2: for everything. And I I have gotten to a point 145 00:09:01,080 --> 00:09:03,280 Speaker 2: and I don't like to be around crowds. I don't 146 00:09:03,360 --> 00:09:05,560 Speaker 2: like any of it. I'd rather just be at home 147 00:09:05,840 --> 00:09:09,920 Speaker 2: on my back porch, maybe have a friend over, my wife, kids, 148 00:09:10,360 --> 00:09:13,720 Speaker 2: my cigar, my booze, my food, my cheese plate. So 149 00:09:13,880 --> 00:09:17,920 Speaker 2: I said, respectfully, thank you, but no thanks. But it's Trump. 150 00:09:18,280 --> 00:09:21,160 Speaker 2: No thanks. I could have just as easily and ten 151 00:09:21,200 --> 00:09:23,439 Speaker 2: years ago I would have gone because you're there. It's 152 00:09:23,440 --> 00:09:26,080 Speaker 2: a moment. This is a moment in history, and I 153 00:09:26,120 --> 00:09:28,360 Speaker 2: loved to be there. I don't anymore, but I did it. 154 00:09:29,000 --> 00:09:31,280 Speaker 2: I could have been there. I would have been there, 155 00:09:31,720 --> 00:09:33,680 Speaker 2: and I would have walked from the speech over to 156 00:09:33,720 --> 00:09:36,199 Speaker 2: the Capitol, which I've done. I worked in DC. I 157 00:09:36,200 --> 00:09:38,280 Speaker 2: would go to the Capitol and just walk around. I'm 158 00:09:38,280 --> 00:09:41,320 Speaker 2: a student of American history. These are the halls of 159 00:09:41,400 --> 00:09:46,000 Speaker 2: America's a governing palace, and I would have on that 160 00:09:46,080 --> 00:09:49,320 Speaker 2: day felt very moved. You know that there's a scene 161 00:09:49,600 --> 00:09:52,120 Speaker 2: that there's a part in the documentary about Martha Stewart 162 00:09:52,160 --> 00:09:55,720 Speaker 2: where she talks about it's the eve of Easter and 163 00:09:55,760 --> 00:09:57,480 Speaker 2: she's in Florence for the first time. Is first time 164 00:09:57,480 --> 00:09:59,839 Speaker 2: she's ever left the country. It's the eve of Easter, 165 00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:03,199 Speaker 2: and she walks over to the Duomo and if you've 166 00:10:03,200 --> 00:10:09,959 Speaker 2: ever seen that beautiful, beautiful house of worship, it is incredible. 167 00:10:10,080 --> 00:10:13,160 Speaker 2: And she was talking about how moved she was just 168 00:10:13,200 --> 00:10:16,079 Speaker 2: the eve of Easter and she's there. I get that 169 00:10:16,120 --> 00:10:22,319 Speaker 2: way when I'm in DC. I just finished a Jefferson biopic, 170 00:10:23,040 --> 00:10:27,320 Speaker 2: and I get moved by thinking that's where that happened. 171 00:10:27,320 --> 00:10:30,200 Speaker 2: This is very powerful. I would have walked over. There 172 00:10:30,400 --> 00:10:31,920 Speaker 2: could have been by myself, and I would have walked over. 173 00:10:31,920 --> 00:10:33,360 Speaker 2: It wouldn't matter. I could have been with the crowd 174 00:10:34,120 --> 00:10:37,640 Speaker 2: walking through the capitol thinking about the history of all 175 00:10:38,040 --> 00:10:42,040 Speaker 2: anybody could and the people who were were pushed to 176 00:10:42,080 --> 00:10:43,920 Speaker 2: try to get them to do more, which they didn't do, 177 00:10:44,760 --> 00:10:48,559 Speaker 2: and then they were harassed and imprisoned and broken. Landon 178 00:10:48,600 --> 00:10:51,920 Speaker 2: Mitchell is our game. So for twenty three minutes you 179 00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:54,440 Speaker 2: were inside the capitol. What happened Landon while you were 180 00:10:54,440 --> 00:10:55,240 Speaker 2: inside the Capitol? 181 00:10:55,960 --> 00:10:59,559 Speaker 1: Oh? Well, I guess I should start back from how 182 00:10:59,600 --> 00:11:03,280 Speaker 1: we all end up getting in. Like I said, I 183 00:11:03,280 --> 00:11:06,199 Speaker 1: was on the west end and there's this I don't know, 184 00:11:06,240 --> 00:11:09,040 Speaker 1: I guess it's some sort of a really thin corridor 185 00:11:09,080 --> 00:11:13,679 Speaker 1: to a door, and you know, everybody was up inside 186 00:11:13,679 --> 00:11:17,200 Speaker 1: that little corridor and everything. Then the door starts opening up, 187 00:11:17,559 --> 00:11:20,839 Speaker 1: you know, then everyone starts rushing in, and everyone's like, oh, 188 00:11:20,880 --> 00:11:22,640 Speaker 1: we got in, we got in. So we go start 189 00:11:22,679 --> 00:11:25,600 Speaker 1: walking in and I just want to make a point 190 00:11:25,600 --> 00:11:28,360 Speaker 1: to anybody who thinks that this was a this was 191 00:11:28,440 --> 00:11:32,520 Speaker 1: planned on our part, you know, like there's no possible 192 00:11:32,559 --> 00:11:36,480 Speaker 1: way that all of these disparate characters got together and 193 00:11:36,600 --> 00:11:39,280 Speaker 1: all decided to do this on this day. It was 194 00:11:39,320 --> 00:11:41,640 Speaker 1: all planned in everything way. Other people are trying to 195 00:11:41,679 --> 00:11:45,800 Speaker 1: tell it when we got in. You should have seen it, man, 196 00:11:45,840 --> 00:11:47,360 Speaker 1: everyone got in there. It's like the wind was let 197 00:11:47,400 --> 00:11:49,240 Speaker 1: out of everybody's sales. We just get in. It's like, 198 00:11:50,000 --> 00:11:52,520 Speaker 1: what do we do now? So we just started wandering 199 00:11:52,559 --> 00:11:57,680 Speaker 1: around aimlessly taking pictures. You know. Uh, Metro Police was 200 00:11:57,679 --> 00:12:02,000 Speaker 1: in there, you know, guiding us to certain areas. And 201 00:12:02,040 --> 00:12:03,960 Speaker 1: then we get to that one room. I can't remember 202 00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:06,760 Speaker 1: what it was, but it was one of those rooms 203 00:12:06,760 --> 00:12:08,680 Speaker 1: where like you can stand in one spot on the 204 00:12:08,679 --> 00:12:11,600 Speaker 1: other side you can hear a whisper from somebody else. 205 00:12:13,559 --> 00:12:17,000 Speaker 1: Then I find my way into the center chamber floor 206 00:12:17,800 --> 00:12:19,160 Speaker 1: and I get in there and I'm like, well, this 207 00:12:19,200 --> 00:12:23,280 Speaker 1: is a tiny room compared to everything else. It looks 208 00:12:23,320 --> 00:12:26,600 Speaker 1: a lot bigger on TV for some reason. But there's 209 00:12:26,640 --> 00:12:29,679 Speaker 1: a Qann shaman guy that's you know, standing up there, 210 00:12:30,320 --> 00:12:33,360 Speaker 1: and you know, we're all looking around and everything. And 211 00:12:33,400 --> 00:12:35,599 Speaker 1: then do start praying. And then as soon as he 212 00:12:35,600 --> 00:12:38,520 Speaker 1: starts playing, like, oh stop whatever I'm doing looking around 213 00:12:38,760 --> 00:12:43,720 Speaker 1: by my head, start praying. After that goes on, Metro 214 00:12:43,720 --> 00:12:45,360 Speaker 1: Police comes back in and it's telling us that we 215 00:12:45,440 --> 00:12:47,640 Speaker 1: need to leave. So everyone kind of just looks around 216 00:12:47,679 --> 00:12:51,719 Speaker 1: and goes all right, So we start walking out, and 217 00:12:52,200 --> 00:12:55,560 Speaker 1: that's that's really it, you know, after everything that's going on. 218 00:12:55,600 --> 00:12:57,360 Speaker 1: When I in court, when I heard that we were 219 00:12:57,640 --> 00:12:59,280 Speaker 1: only in there for twenty three minutes, I was like, 220 00:12:59,360 --> 00:13:03,360 Speaker 1: what really? I mean, they got the evidence, the video 221 00:13:03,360 --> 00:13:07,040 Speaker 1: evidence and everything, but just seems like a lot longer. Well, 222 00:13:07,040 --> 00:13:08,600 Speaker 1: I was in there, but that's I guess that's a 223 00:13:08,640 --> 00:13:09,200 Speaker 1: relative thing. 224 00:13:09,360 --> 00:13:10,840 Speaker 2: Had you ever been in the Capitol before? 225 00:13:11,440 --> 00:13:13,360 Speaker 1: Oh?

So I had 228 00:13:23,559 --> 00:13:29,040 Speaker 1: been there when they were doing this ceremony for the 229 00:13:29,080 --> 00:13:31,200 Speaker 1: female fighter pilots of World War Two, the ones that 230 00:13:31,200 --> 00:13:33,079 Speaker 1: had never gotten the medal, and they were just now 231 00:13:33,120 --> 00:13:35,640 Speaker 1: starting to get their medals. So I went there for 232 00:13:35,679 --> 00:13:38,400 Speaker 1: that occasion and that was a pretty moving. 233 00:13:38,960 --> 00:13:44,880 Speaker 2: So you leave, you A gun is never drawn by 234 00:13:44,960 --> 00:13:49,160 Speaker 2: you or an officer, there's no blows thrown, there's no 235 00:13:49,520 --> 00:13:54,079 Speaker 2: putting you in cuffs.

Other than that. 340 00:19:26,840 --> 00:19:31,120 Speaker 1: Then they released me, which I was not expecting at all. 341 00:19:31,160 --> 00:19:33,439 Speaker 1: I was like, man, I'm going to be sitting here 342 00:19:33,480 --> 00:19:35,320 Speaker 1: in d C jail, and after all the things that 343 00:19:35,359 --> 00:19:38,200 Speaker 1: I had heard about DC jail, I was not looking 344 00:19:38,240 --> 00:19:43,320 Speaker 1: forward to it. But uh so, as they released me, 345 00:19:43,400 --> 00:19:46,440 Speaker 1: they put an ankle monitor on me the next day, 346 00:19:47,520 --> 00:19:51,959 Speaker 1: and it was because I was getting paranoid or anything, 347 00:19:52,440 --> 00:19:56,440 Speaker 1: but I swear I could see like helicopters just doing 348 00:19:56,480 --> 00:19:58,399 Speaker 1: their little turns around me all the times, like I 349 00:19:58,480 --> 00:20:01,159 Speaker 1: just started noticing how many hell were traveling above me 350 00:20:01,200 --> 00:20:03,280 Speaker 1: while I was working in DC, and I guess it's because, 351 00:20:04,200 --> 00:20:06,240 Speaker 1: you know, I was on their watch list or something 352 00:20:06,280 --> 00:20:09,240 Speaker 1: like that, and they must have really thought that I 353 00:20:09,280 --> 00:20:11,320 Speaker 1: was part of some bigger group or something, because they 354 00:20:11,359 --> 00:20:15,159 Speaker 1: spent a lot of money, you know, keeping tabs on me. 355 00:20:16,000 --> 00:20:17,200 Speaker 1: That's what it felt like at least. 356 00:20:17,200 --> 00:20:21,119 Speaker 2: And so you come back to Texas just for two years. 357 00:20:21,160 --> 00:20:24,240 Speaker 2: You're wearing an ankle monitor for two years, and you're 358 00:20:24,280 --> 00:20:29,560 Speaker 2: a waiting trial and sentencing. They rescheduled the trial three times. 359 00:20:30,400 --> 00:20:33,280 Speaker 1: And I got to d C twice out of those 360 00:20:33,320 --> 00:20:36,600 Speaker 1: three times, and it's the day the next day or 361 00:20:36,600 --> 00:20:41,920 Speaker 1: the day of my schedule of court appearance. And one 362 00:20:41,960 --> 00:20:45,520 Speaker 1: time they told me that my judge had COVID, so 363 00:20:45,560 --> 00:20:48,280 Speaker 1: we have to reschedule everything.

I was ready to fight him to the 400 00:23:02,240 --> 00:23:06,919 Speaker 1: very end. And then you settled me with the public defender. 401 00:23:07,760 --> 00:23:12,399 Speaker 1: And she did a good job too. I suppose she 402 00:23:12,560 --> 00:23:14,520 Speaker 1: wasn't nearly as on fire for this whole thing as 403 00:23:14,640 --> 00:23:19,119 Speaker 1: my previous lord boy man. A whole bunch of stuff 404 00:23:19,119 --> 00:23:21,399 Speaker 1: that happened to I fold. The whole entire experience was 405 00:23:21,520 --> 00:23:21,920 Speaker 1: ship like. 406 00:23:22,520 --> 00:23:25,399 Speaker 2: Landon Mitchell served more time in prison than the Pizzagate 407 00:23:25,440 --> 00:23:27,800 Speaker 2: shooter while marriage. I think that there might. 408 00:23:27,680 --> 00:23:29,480 Speaker 1: Be, because I got nothing going on down there. 409 00:23:29,560 --> 00:23:36,000 Speaker 2: Probably Landon Mitchell was like anybody else in this country, 410 00:23:36,080 --> 00:23:40,159 Speaker 2: thirty year old young man working for a pest control 411 00:23:40,240 --> 00:23:45,120 Speaker 2: company and showed up to hear President Trump speak our 412 00:23:45,200 --> 00:23:49,639 Speaker 2: president on January sixth, twenty twenty one, and then walked 413 00:23:49,680 --> 00:23:54,959 Speaker 2: over to the Capitol, did nothing wrong, and his life 414 00:23:55,200 --> 00:24:01,000 Speaker 2: was destroyed by our government. They won't tell you this, 415 00:24:02,600 --> 00:24:06,520 Speaker 2: but you shoot the president. You have hearings which you 416 00:24:06,680 --> 00:24:09,960 Speaker 2: bring in the head of ABC to stage them to 417 00:24:09,960 --> 00:24:13,840 Speaker 2: make a TV show out of it. Liz Cheney lost 418 00:24:13,840 --> 00:24:17,040 Speaker 2: her seat over a lot of things that they did 419 00:24:17,760 --> 00:24:21,159 Speaker 2: that cost them this election. Don't underestimate how many people 420 00:24:22,000 --> 00:24:26,520 Speaker 2: will never trust our government again for what they've done. 421 00:24:26,720 --> 00:24:28,560 Speaker 2: But it's not just about who was at fault and 422 00:24:28,640 --> 00:24:31,280 Speaker 2: what they did. How do you get your life back. 423 00:24:32,440 --> 00:24:38,040 Speaker 2: You've been a prison inmate, You've been in prison with 424 00:24:38,840 --> 00:24:43,800 Speaker 2: murderers and rapists and pedophiles. You don't just get that back. 425 00:24:46,840 --> 00:24:52,119 Speaker 2: This Martha Stewart documentary on Netflix, she went to prison 426 00:24:52,200 --> 00:24:55,080 Speaker 2: for five months, doesn't sound like a lot. We went 427 00:24:55,119 --> 00:25:00,400 Speaker 2: to prison for five months? Or they admitted she didn't 428 00:25:00,440 --> 00:25:03,199 Speaker 2: commit a crime. They said she lied to the FBI. 429 00:25:04,480 --> 00:25:06,480 Speaker 2: It's it's and it's guess who did it, Jim Comey. 430 00:25:06,960 --> 00:25:12,159 Speaker 2: It's it's sickening what they did to this woman. Landon 431 00:25:12,240 --> 00:25:14,639 Speaker 2: Mitchell is our guest. Landon, let's I got this is 432 00:25:14,640 --> 00:25:16,000 Speaker 2: our last segment, So I want. 433 00:25:15,840 --> 00:25:16,479 Speaker 1: To get through this. 434 00:25:16,880 --> 00:25:19,640 Speaker 2: Uh, you show up to prison. You're not a guy 435 00:25:19,720 --> 00:25:20,840 Speaker 2: that goes to prison. 436 00:25:21,000 --> 00:25:30,960 Speaker 3: How did that go, and so I was given the 437 00:25:31,359 --> 00:25:43,520 Speaker 3: the the dubious, dubious honor of going to self surrender, right, And. 438 00:25:43,840 --> 00:25:46,040 Speaker 1: Basically what that means is when it's time for me 439 00:25:46,080 --> 00:25:49,480 Speaker 1: to go to prison, they will send me a letter 440 00:25:49,520 --> 00:25:51,720 Speaker 1: in the mail giving me the date, and I drive 441 00:25:51,800 --> 00:25:57,199 Speaker 1: myself to UH to incarceration. And so I had some 442 00:25:57,359 --> 00:26:01,639 Speaker 1: time to figure out where I was going, do some 443 00:26:02,480 --> 00:26:05,159 Speaker 1: research into the whole thing. And they told me that 444 00:26:05,200 --> 00:26:11,800 Speaker 1: I was going to Beaumont, Beaumont FCI Medium, and I 445 00:26:11,800 --> 00:26:13,920 Speaker 1: didn't really have any idea that it was going to 446 00:26:14,000 --> 00:26:19,040 Speaker 1: be like a whole entire campus complex thing where you've 447 00:26:19,080 --> 00:26:22,760 Speaker 1: got the penitentiary, the Beaumont Penitentiary, the Beaumont Medium, and 448 00:26:22,760 --> 00:26:26,880 Speaker 1: the Beaumont camp right right, all in their little group. 449 00:26:28,000 --> 00:26:32,280 Speaker 1: So when I looked at Beaumont on the internet, I 450 00:26:32,320 --> 00:26:35,000 Speaker 1: saw a whole bunch of articles for bloody Beaumont this, 451 00:26:35,160 --> 00:26:38,159 Speaker 1: and bloody Beaumont that, this many inmates got into a riot, 452 00:26:38,640 --> 00:26:42,320 Speaker 1: this many people stabbed each other, you know, just all 453 00:26:42,359 --> 00:26:45,960 Speaker 1: of these different articles. That was I was like, man, 454 00:26:45,960 --> 00:26:49,760 Speaker 1: I'm going I'm going to the slaughterhouse, is what I 455 00:26:49,800 --> 00:26:53,200 Speaker 1: thought is the way I felt. And so I get 456 00:26:53,200 --> 00:26:56,919 Speaker 1: in there and one of the first things that I 457 00:26:57,000 --> 00:27:00,200 Speaker 1: ended up doing is just, yeah, I need to find 458 00:27:00,200 --> 00:27:05,440 Speaker 1: a way to protect myself, you know, So get myself 459 00:27:05,480 --> 00:27:09,920 Speaker 1: a little piece of metal and start sharpening that thing 460 00:27:10,040 --> 00:27:13,639 Speaker 1: up and start you know, making myself a shank and everything. 461 00:27:13,640 --> 00:27:15,480 Speaker 1: And then the next thing I know, we're getting locked 462 00:27:15,480 --> 00:27:21,959 Speaker 1: down twenty four to seven for two weeks. After seventy 463 00:27:22,000 --> 00:27:27,199 Speaker 1: two hours, you're eligible for a shower, right eligible for 464 00:27:27,240 --> 00:27:28,920 Speaker 1: a shower, It doesn't mean they're going to give one 465 00:27:28,960 --> 00:27:32,119 Speaker 1: to you. Then you're let out yourself for ten minutes. 466 00:27:33,080 --> 00:27:34,920 Speaker 1: And a lot of the times that we were put 467 00:27:34,920 --> 00:27:39,760 Speaker 1: on lockdown was just because the the the CEO just 468 00:27:39,800 --> 00:27:42,119 Speaker 1: decided that they weren't going to show up. And it 469 00:27:42,160 --> 00:27:46,720 Speaker 1: happens a lot your CEO doesn't show up. Everybody's locked 470 00:27:46,760 --> 00:27:50,240 Speaker 1: down for like the whole week, twenty four hours, seven 471 00:27:50,280 --> 00:27:54,200 Speaker 1: days a week. My first two months there, I spent 472 00:27:54,359 --> 00:27:59,040 Speaker 1: more time locked in my cell with another dude, you know. 473 00:27:59,760 --> 00:28:04,200 Speaker 1: Then I probably spent about maybe, you know, maybe two 474 00:28:04,200 --> 00:28:09,520 Speaker 1: weeks the first two months actually out in the day 475 00:28:09,600 --> 00:28:17,200 Speaker 1: room area. And that's how the beginning of my experience 476 00:28:17,240 --> 00:28:23,960 Speaker 1: in Beaumont started. Eventually things started calming down, they started 477 00:28:24,040 --> 00:28:31,200 Speaker 1: letting people out The thing about life in prison is 478 00:28:33,400 --> 00:28:37,199 Speaker 1: very rarely does anybody ever travel what they call solo 479 00:28:37,480 --> 00:28:42,240 Speaker 1: solo dolo where they or not affiliated with any group 480 00:28:43,080 --> 00:28:48,600 Speaker 1: within the within the prison. And they call these groups 481 00:28:48,680 --> 00:28:54,360 Speaker 1: cars because you've got people who drive it kind of 482 00:28:54,360 --> 00:28:56,680 Speaker 1: direct where everybody else in your in your car goes. 483 00:28:57,800 --> 00:29:01,520 Speaker 1: And I was part of the Native American car.

I'm going to keep you on my 508 00:30:33,200 --> 00:30:35,880 Speaker 2: list for that and we'll have time to really go 509 00:30:36,280 --> 00:30:38,800 Speaker 2: in depth into what you do in that situation. 510 00:30:39,800 --> 00:30:40,320 Speaker 1: I've got a. 511 00:30:40,280 --> 00:30:41,760 Speaker 2: Minute, I got a little over a minute. I want 512 00:30:41,760 --> 00:30:45,160 Speaker 2: to know what you will do now, Uh, what you're 513 00:30:45,160 --> 00:30:47,000 Speaker 2: doing now? And have they talked about a pardon and 514 00:30:47,240 --> 00:30:48,200 Speaker 2: how you go forward? 515 00:30:49,280 --> 00:30:51,920 Speaker 1: Well, as far as I understand, Trump has the pardon's 516 00:30:51,920 --> 00:30:54,560 Speaker 1: already written. Well, I got to wait for him to 517 00:30:54,560 --> 00:30:58,760 Speaker 1: actually get certified and put an office before anything happens. 518 00:31:00,440 --> 00:31:03,600 Speaker 1: That doesn't mean that everything is going to be stricken 519 00:31:03,640 --> 00:31:06,840 Speaker 1: from the record, I've already got my sony overturned. I'm 520 00:31:06,840 --> 00:31:10,640 Speaker 1: working on two more misdemeanors. I'm still appealing the entire thing. 521 00:31:11,440 --> 00:31:17,120 Speaker 1: But all that pardons. Going to really do is take 522 00:31:17,160 --> 00:31:20,760 Speaker 1: away my probation and take away any restitution. 523 00:31:21,360 --> 00:31:24,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, it was three years of probation. 524 00:31:25,440 --> 00:31:27,200 Speaker 1: Landing like two thousand bucks. 525 00:31:27,560 --> 00:31:31,760 Speaker 2: You are a strong, strong man. You've been put through 526 00:31:31,800 --> 00:31:37,120 Speaker 2: hell by a government that works for me and everybody else, 527 00:31:37,320 --> 00:31:41,160 Speaker 2: and for that, because those people did this to you, 528 00:31:41,360 --> 00:31:45,640 Speaker 2: we all owe you an apology. This is wrong, this 529 00:31:45,760 --> 00:31:49,040 Speaker 2: is awful. Thank you for sharing your story. I want 530 00:31:49,080 --> 00:31:52,960 Speaker 2: more people to come forward and share their stories. This 531 00:31:53,120 --> 00:31:56,480 Speaker 2: is why we are civil libertarians. This is why Ron 532 00:31:56,560 --> 00:32:01,320 Speaker 2: Paul was popular. This is why you don't give powers 533 00:32:01,360 --> 00:32:03,800 Speaker 2: to a government and treat them like your friend. They 534 00:32:03,840 --> 00:32:07,400 Speaker 2: work for us, we don't work for them. Thank you 535 00:32:06,920 --> 00:32:09,120 Speaker 2: for sharing your story, Landed Mitchell. 536 00:32:09,600 --> 00:32:09,920 Speaker 1: Wow.
