Guys, welcome to another huge episode of Trigger.
Tonight, I'm joined live by a guest many of you have been asking for.
General Michael Flynn.
General Flynn is the former director of Defense Intelligence Agency.
He served as the first national security advisor in the Trump administration.
A great patriot.
Someone who Obama single-handedly pointed out that my father should not hire.
And I think now we all know why.
He was the guy that understood everything that was going on.
He was the only one that understood everything that was going on.
Which meant they had to go after him in full force.
Flynn was one of the first victims and targets of the Russia Gate hoax.
They went after him.
They went after his family.
They went after everyone in his surroundings.
Because again, he was right.
Obama knew it.
Obama knew that he knew it, and he wanted to take him out before it could get started.
My father didn't do that.
He had him on anyway, but I think this will be one of the best interviews yet, because when we live in this world where we see cancel culture and the insanity of what's going around, I think he's the perfect person to talk about it.
And meanwhile, the madness across our country is only getting worse.
I mean, Canada now is literally applauding an actual Nazi.
You can't make up this stuff.
Okay, I'm going to talk about some of these things later on.
We're going to go right to General Flynn now, and I'll get into the news of the week afterwards.
A little bit of a timing thing.
It just worked better, and I wanted to make sure we could get that.
I'm also going to be watching down below, getting into the live chat questions so that we can cover all of those things.

Rumble is doing it.
So make sure other people are seeing this kind of help.
Guys, we're not getting any help from big tech.
We're not getting help from media.
In fact, I'd love nothing more than
For them to try to silence us for good.
That's what they've been doing.
They've been trying to silence anyone who doesn't fit their narrative.

So joining us now, retired Army Lieutenant General, former Trump National Security Advisor, Mike Flynn.
General, it's great to have you on the show.
I mean, we've spoken a lot in the last couple months.
You have your great sort of reawakened tour going around the country talking about what's actually going on.
And I think we're actually at a point now where people are finally seeing it for himself.
The insanity is so bad.
The idiocy of it all.
But you were legitimately one of the first.
And I've told you this, you know, both.
I've said it publicly.
I've said it on this show.
I've said it to you face to face.
You know, you were one of the original people, you know, they tried to cancel, sort of, you know, without fact or evidence, but, you know, if they throw enough stuff at you, you know, you served your country for decades, but, hey, you go in, you try to help the FBI because, you know, they're going to be doing the right thing, right?
I mean, even you believe that, and you understood.
Perhaps some of the corruption better.
You know, I know I mentioned in the opening and my father, I remember him telling me, yeah, I don't know.
Obama told me definitely don't hire that guy.
He's a loose cannon.
He's wild.
He's crazy.
It's going to cause you all sorts of trouble.
Well, it turns out like they were just covering up their own or trying to cover up their own disaster before
It ever started, but you were the original guy, you and Trump really, that they went after.
And I remember, and I told you, my biggest regret of like 2017 was I knew you, I spent time with you on the campaign, but they do it in such a way that makes it impossible for someone to be like, hey, I'm just going to go defend that, right?
The FBI, the CIA said that he's corrupted by these foreign, you know, I'm sitting there be like, hey, I'm a patriotic American.
I wouldn't come out against you, because I was like, I don't know, let's let it play out.
But they force people to sit on the sidelines and leave guys like you.
A couple months later, it was guys like me, guys like my father.
You've seen it with Tucker, with Russell Brand, with Andrew Tate.
They force people to sort of say, hey, I don't think they probably did that.
It doesn't make any sense.
There's no real evidence.
Hey man, I can't go defend treason.
I can't defend a guy that did X, Y, Z, whatever they accused someone of, you know, magically, you know, Russell Brands now, you know, serial rapist, you know, it happened 16 years ago and they were very quiet while he was a celebrity and dating Katy Perry and, you know, yada, yada, yada, but now...
Now that he actually fights back against the narrative, just like you were, it's a problem.
What's going on?
Talk about your experience with that, because, I mean, they tried to break you.
I mean, they wanted to throw your son in jail for nonsense, just like they tried to do it to me, you know, to hurt my father.
Talk about that experience, because you were one of the first.
Yeah, so first of all, thanks, Donald, for allowing me, you know, a little bit of time on your show.
You're a great audience, and everything you say in the sort of the lead-in here, this is really about everybody standing up for this country at this moment in history.
This is an unbelievable time that we face, and you're right.
And, you know, the interesting thing about what you said about your dad and the conversation he had with Obama, who I think is a, who I still believe is in charge today,
What I point to is a very infamous meeting in the Oval Office on the 5th of January of 2017.
And your great audience, people can go look up that meeting.
5 January 2017.
That's the day that I say that the coup actually was initiated.
So they started
With all of their nonsense during the campaign, where they were spying on the campaign.
They had the Russia gate began, you know, actually prior to the convention.
So back in the late 2015, 2016.
This is all evidence.
I mean, this is all, we know all of this now.
And then you go into early August, where from the Durham report, we now know 3 August 2016, John Brennan briefed Obama in the White House about the Hillary Clinton dossier, the Hillary Clinton paid for dossier.
You fast forward to 5 January 2017, and that's the day in the Oval Office, Obama, Biden,
Jim Clapper, Director of National Intelligence, John Brennan, Director of the CIA, Jim Comey, Director of the FBI, Sally Yates, the Deputy Attorney General for the United States of America, and Susan Rice, at the time the National Security Advisor to Obama.
During that meeting is when they decided that they were going to take out my legs, basically take out the National Security Advisor.
This is provable now.
I'm in a massive
A lawsuit right now with the Department of Justice and the Executive Office of the President under Obama.
So that day, they had that meeting, and this is the very famous, you know, which there's so much stuff going on today, but this is where Biden talked about the Logan Act, okay?
People can go back and look that up.
This was brought up 5 January 2017.
During that meeting, we know this now, you know, through evidence, one of the things that we got out of that meeting
On written notes from that meeting was, what's our objective?
To get Flynn to lie or to get him fired, basically, so we can undermine Donald Trump, the incoming president?
Basically, what they did was they had a strategy on that day, because the very next day, you may recall this,
That group of people, minus the president and vice president and Sally Yates, they came up, and Susan Rice, they came up to the Trump Tower on the 6th of January and briefed us on the Russia dossier, right?
And that was a very famous meeting where Comey and your father, your dad, talked about the golden showers bullshit.
Excuse my Irish.
I don't mean to get... That one was always amazing to me because I'm like, wait a minute.
My dad's like a germaphobe.
So he's going to go there and have Russian hookers pissing all over him.
I'm like, I don't know, man.
He's reluctant to shake my hand at times.
You know what I mean?
So it's like, I don't...
So what they did is that meeting led to their putting as many government resources to include even those while your father was the president in the early days.
So these people were undermining a duly elected president by taking out the national security advisor that he had decided to bring into the administration early on.
So, you kind of say, why Flynn?
Well, remember, I not only ran one of the largest intel agencies in the world, Defense Intelligence Agency, but I was also Assistant Director of National Intelligence for a good period of time.
I had great relationships and I had deep knowledge of the CIA, FBI, Department of Defense, Department of State.
So, you've got a guy with a broad series and set of experiences coming in
To being the National Security Advisor, one of the little things that people don't realize is that all FISA, right, all FISA for the types of FISA records that come across to the President of the United States, that all this investigation that Mueller and Andrew Wiseman and the Department of Justice was involved in surrounding your dad, and frankly from the Durham report and the Durham investigation that did come out, the National Security Advisor has access to all that.
So, you know, there's been things like Flynn knows where the bodies are buried.
It's not so much that, you know, the physical bodies, it's knowing how the intelligence community operates, knowing how the Defense Department operates, knowing how these structures and these organizations actually get away with so much craziness.
And, you know, two things that I had done, one I did with Pence, with Vice President Pence prior to coming in,
We're good to go.
And so I basically, as the National Security Advisor, I'm gonna be responsible for all of them.
Now, there's different organizations that run them.
Black programs, this is a big deal, Donald, because, and for your audience to understand, sort of when we say where the bodies are buried.
Black programs are very sensitive, classified programs where nobody has any idea how much money is spent on these things.
The money just flows freely.
The level of corruption and frankly, criminal behavior inside of these things,
You know, it's just extraordinary.
And so, one of those, among many, are what they call findings, presidential findings.
And these are the things that if an incoming president isn't aware of these things, trust me, the CIA and the FBI aren't going to tell the incoming president.
And so, I got partially briefed with Pence.
Coming back in, I got a full laydown of every single one of those.
Those are things that they do not want anybody to get control of.
And frankly, there's a lot of people over in Congress that are aware of some of these.
They call it the Gang of Eight, which is a couple of senators and a couple of congressmen, the Speaker of the House, the President of the Senate.
These guys get briefed on the majority of these things.
So I lay that out because on the 5th of January, and then when you go back to the meeting between Obama and your dad, you have to say, why is Flynn such a threat?
Flynn is such a threat because Flynn knows exactly how and where these things are at.
And if they don't get me out really quickly, so if they didn't get me out when they did,
There would have been no Mueller investigation, and I've spoken about this before.
Think about that.
If I had stayed as the National Security Advisor, there would have been no Mueller investigation, none, because none of that crap would have seen the light of day because I would have been digging into that.
So they had to get rid of me
If there's someone that can, it's me, but we're also blessed
You know, to have, let's call it a war chest to be able to fight it.
I mean, you know, my defense for treason, a crime punishable by, I mean, I probably spent, you know, well over a million dollars on bullshit.
It doesn't have to be true.
But I have the head of the intelligence committee on TV lying about me, the head of the this, the that of the that.
They're on there, you know, and then the mainstream media carries the narrative.
There's no consequence to them because they say, well, we're just reporting what those guys said.
I mean, they altered my emails.
I mean, this is all,
You know, just objectively fact at this point, but it didn't matter.
And they went after you the same way because by, oh, he's a traitor.
He's working for this.
Well, anyone who knows that's not the case is like, well, I'm not, I can't defend a traitor.
We just got to see how this plays out.
So even if you don't believe it, they get you to be silent.
So you're out there alone, taking the slings and arrows.
They go after you.
For me, we could fight the war chest.
You know, unlike the Bidens, we were business people.
We had money.
We could, you could fight it.
And it's again, millions of dollars, but they go after you.
No.
So, and I, and I will tell you, so plus, you know, you know, your dad was still in the White House at the time.
So you're, he's able to, to fight from that position.
So I'm out, you know, and I appreciate you, you, you saying that because it's important for people to understand.
I was really sort of out in the desert there.
Right.
I mean, you know, and so they're going after, they're going after my family.
And people don't realize, a lot of people don't know that.
I have nine brothers and sisters.
My wife has seven.
I've got over 50 nieces and nephews.
I've had, you know, mothers-in-laws and, you know, I mean, extended families between my wife and I. And, I mean, they go after everybody.
Talk about canceling.
I've had, you know, the Bank of Un-America cancel me.
I've had Citibank cancel me, Chase Bank.
And then the cost of the legal battles
Yeah.
Yeah.
In order to beat this leftist Marxist group of thugs—and that's what they are, they're Marxist thugs as far as I'm concerned—but because of the weak, pathetic leadership that we have in the White House right now, which doesn't deserve to be there and shouldn't be there,
We have a global alliance forming against the United States of America, and that global alliance is very real.
It's the global economic alliance in the organizations like the BRICS, like Brazil, Russia, India, China, South America.
The recent BRICS summit that they held about two or three weeks ago
It included countries that represent about 75% of the world's population.
I mean, think about that, that are now starting to align against the United States of America because of the weak, pathetic leadership that we have in the White House.
And frankly, not just in the White House, because it's all across, I mean, you know, the institution of the military
You know, I love and I look at the military and I'm saying to myself, Jesus, what is going on at the top tier of our military leadership?
Because I know you guys and your entire family has always cherished our veterans and cherished our military.
And I know you guys, you particularly do a lot of stuff for our veterans and you're out there engaging them all the time and supporting them.
And, I mean, it kills me when I see what our military is going through.
Well, how did that happen?
Because, I mean, that didn't... I guess it got accelerated under Trump.
I mean, you know, I joke with my buddies, you know, a lot of my good friends, you know, serious operators, right?
They're not like these guys.
And, I mean, they're literally, they have told me, you know, they spend more time doing diversity training than they do shooting.
I mean, these are SEALs.
You know, so you were there.
You were there at a high level.
You know, you saw what they tried to do to you to take you out.
And again, they do it in a way that makes it very difficult for anyone to come to your defense, even if, you know, five years later, it's all bullshit.
Oh, well, guess what?
They're not giving you a reimbursement for the $7 million or for the cost.
They didn't do it for, you know, the $100 million my father has spent on his defense of these things.
It doesn't have to be true.
Part of it is designed to destroy you.
I mean, it's a PSYOP, right?
They're going to destroy you mentally.
They're going to destroy you financially.
They're going to destroy your family.
You're going to lose your house.
You're going to get divorced.
And that's how they get people to capitulate.
But the same thing's going on in the military, right?
If you don't get the vax, you're fired.
And I don't mean like some guy that's a paper pusher.
I mean, an elite fighter pilot that we've spent years training and millions of dollars, a serious operator.
They're going to get destroyed by the same people.
And yet, we make the distinction between the guys on the ground doing the door kicking, because those guys, I think, probably think much like us.
But the military leadership, how did that happen?
How did that get taken over?
I mean, you were there as probably some of this started happening.
But when, like, I don't believe that any of these generals, even the ones that are pushing it now, you know, 15 years ago,
Yeah, huge.
Huge recruitment.
How did it start and how does it continue, given sort of the clear backlash from the people who actually want to serve their country, not sign up, you know, to get a trans operation and not have to actually ever see a war zone because of it?
Yeah, a couple of things.
I mean, number one, the purpose of the military is to be prepared for and then fight and win our nation's wars, period.
And the key word there is win, right?
Not go in and participate for 10 years, 20 years.
And, you know, and again, anybody that knows me, anybody that served with me, you know, I've always been very blunt, very, you know, you know, cut to the chase.
And what do we need to do?
And, you know, you push, you push up
The chain to your political leaders, your political masters to say, hey, this ain't going so well.
And I, you know, and I've, I've had, you know, I've had my bouts with our political leadership as well going forward when I was serving in the military.
And anybody, particularly the operators that I, you know, work with, serve with, served alongside, they know exactly where I stand.
So how do we get these leaders that we have in our, at the top tier, right?
The chairman, the vice chairman, the service chiefs.
I mean, we always say be careful that you don't promote in your own likeness, right?
Don't promote somebody who's going to be an ass kisser.
Promote the people that are going to tell you what you need to be told and move forward, right?
We got to be prepared to fight and win our nation's wars.
I mean the idea... I agree with you but I think these days if you even signal that you're a little bit conservative or this like you have no chance whereas if you know I could join tomorrow be like hey I'm trans I'll probably be an admiral in three weeks I mean it feels like it's that ridiculous as long as you check off a bunch of boxes you know
You see it everywhere.
Well, we have a shortage of X, Y, Z minority as a fighter pilot.
It's like, why don't we just have the best people who want to actually be fighter pilots who are the best qualified fighter pilots?
It's not that complicated and yet they've gone away from this and pushing this insanity.
And they're all doing it in lockstep.
You know, it's like, I guess you can't get ahead now if you don't fall in line.
But, I mean, not only is that going to be a disaster for morale and recruitment, but for efficacy.
Because your point is right.
That force, in my mind, and you know, I don't know much about it, but you do, so I'll take your words, is designed to win wars.
We haven't exactly been doing that as of late.
And yet there's no consequence for inaction or for getting Americans killed for 20 years, spending trillions of dollars, and basically pulling out in embarrassment.
Yeah.
I mean, it's a disaster.
Actually, it's a disaster right now.
And you mentioned recruiting.
I mean, recruiting down, particularly in the United States Army.
But, you know, when we start to see things like the enforced training of diversity, equity, and inclusion, or critical race theory, I mean, these things, I'm not going to say that racism doesn't exist.
That would be a dumb thing.
But
But the idea, and I will tell you, the military, it is a bastion of conservatism and always has been, because these are people who are joining the military because they love our country and they want to serve, right?
So typically you're going to have that kind of ideology.
But what they're trying to do now, the Marxist left in our country, which is really in control of our country right now, and I don't want anybody to think that this is some politics as usual right now,
America is at a crossroads, and we either face a path towards socialism or communism, or we stand this path towards democracy and a constitutional republic.
Inside of our military, they are trying very, very hard to change the culture, and they're trying to get it down into the rank-and-file.
And I know that they're running into a big headwind, because the rank-and-file in the military—the sergeants, the soldiers, the operators—they don't like this stuff.
They don't like it.
And believe me, I talked to a lot of them.
I'm still in touch with a lot of guys and gals in the military.
But at the top tier, it's like you accept those positions, and you're told, here's what you're going to do.
Here's the line that you're going to tow.
I can tell you from personal experience with Obama, under the Obama administration, where I said, no, ISIS is not
You know, on the run, you know, even though Bin Laden's dead, you know, remember the very famous Obama?
Bin Laden's dead.
Al Qaeda's on the run.
That was a lie.
That was total bullshit at the time.
Total bullshit.
ISIS was rising.
It had expanded into countries all over Africa, all over the Middle East, and certainly back in Afghanistan.
And it really took your father coming in and doing some serious damage against ISIS and against some of the leaders, as well as some of the leaders in Iran.
The crew that's in there now, what they want to do is they want to kowtow to everything that we, that you and I, guys like you and I, and millions and millions of other people believe in.
The enemies of our country, and these are people that are willing to go, you know, they're willing to get into bed with organizations or countries like Iran, like Hezbollah, like Hamas.
This is a difficult time right now, and our military leaders, if you get selected at the three and four star level, or for some of these big agencies, or some of these big ticket jobs, you know, they're checking you out and making sure that you're going to toe the line for them.
And if you don't, you're not going to get into those positions, particularly the Chiefs of the Services or the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs.
I hate to say that because I want to be able to tell young men and women who are looking for something to do, I love to tell them, go join the military.
You know, you have a great experience.
Served three, four years.
Hell, I still, kids that still want to go to West Point or Annapolis or the Air Force Academy, I still write letters for them because I just believe in the institution so much.
But today, Donald, we have a very, very serious problem.
And when the United States Army, never mind the other services, the United States Army cannot meet its recruiting goals, the downstream effect of that puts America at a grave risk.
You know, never mind what's happening over in Ukraine and this foolishness that we're involved in, or what might happen in the Pacific with China and Taiwan.
And frankly, the border invasion, which is a border invasion, it's not a drug problem, it's a border invasion.
And what's happening in places like Panama right now, the Panama Canal,
Onward all the way up into hell.
It comes all the way across the border and goes into cities like Chicago, St.
Louis, Kansas City, L.A., Seattle.
I mean, it's affecting every single city in this country.
Well, I'd like to talk about Ukraine a little bit, because like, you know, instead of focusing on combating a threat from, you know, China, you know, real enemies, like people who are really looking to displace us, we're busy subsidizing the Ukrainian government.
I want to play a quick clip from 60 Minutes last night, because even liberal 60 Minutes said this, and it turns out the U.S.
government is literally funding everything in the Ukraine, from the salaries of firemen and small businesses to entrepreneurs.
I'm going to get my team to play this clip, and I want to get your reaction, because given
The economy in America, given the amount of Americans that are having a hard time getting by, you know, in the Obama-slash-Bidenomics, you know, disastrous liberal bullshit policy stuff, how is this even possible?
And that 60 minutes played it is something.
So check out this clip.
I gotta get your reaction.
American taxpayers are financing more than just weapons.
We discovered the U.S.
government's buying seeds and fertilizer for Ukrainian farmers.
And covering the salaries of Ukraine's first responders.
All 57,000 of them.
That includes the team that trained this rescue dog, named Joy, to comb through the wreckage of Russian strikes looking for survivors.
And the US also funds the divers, who we saw clearing unexploded ammunition from the country's rivers to make them safe again for swimming and fishing.
Russia's invasion shrank Ukraine's economy by about a third.
We were surprised to find that to keep it afloat, the U.S.
government is subsidizing small businesses.
What should Americans think that their government is doing more to help Ukraine than to secure our own border?
I feel like I'm being punked every day and yet it keeps happening.
Yeah, we are being punked.
We're being punked to the tune of over $200 billion.
$200 billion now that has been sunk and lost.
You know, what's interesting about that clip is, you know, women out buying jackets and shoes and people walking on a sunny day on the side streets and drinking coffee or wine at a cafe.
I mean, something not right here, Don.
Hey, I'm no soldier, General, but it does not feel like what I envision a war zone to look like.
I keep hearing about it, but it feels like it's just like a, you know,
Look for mines in a river so people can go fishing and swimming.
If this is a true war zone, and I call this a limited objective war, and honestly it really started under Obama in
February of 2014, anybody in your audience can go look back at that right after the Sochi Olympics was the initial attack by the Russians under Obama because of his weak leadership.
And all they did is after your father left the White House, they took advantage of the weak leadership again under Biden, and they did the same thing.
The number one thing that has to happen if we're going to continue with this just literally
Excuse me, but pissing away money to over $200 billion now that we're talking is there has to be objectives.
I mean, this White House has not even stated what the objectives are for why we're involved.
We know about bio labs, and let me tell you a couple of things about Ukraine.
Ukraine
This is all well known by our State Department, by the Defense Department.
It is human trafficking.
It's probably one of the leading human trafficking nations in the world.
Weapon smuggling, drug trafficking, the narcotics trade that goes through Ukraine.
We know about the biolabs that our Defense Department has been involved in, a couple of dozen.
Victoria Nuland is the one that briefed, she stated that in a testimony to Congress about a year ago.
I mean, there's so many things and it just makes you say, okay, let's stop and let's relook why we are doing what we're doing.
And frankly, I have zero time for members of the Senate, particularly the Senate, but even members of the House who keep writing the checks.
And recently they said we were going to go to a government shutdown, you know, quote unquote shutdown, but yet the Defense Department was going to continue to pay out all this money.
The Pentagon was going to disregard Congress and just keep spending the money.
So Congress could say, oh well, we didn't do it.
And the Pentagon apparently feels that, or maybe it can, I don't know, you can tell me you work there, but they can just override
The will of Congress and the people to keep funding their war to get their defense contractor buddies rich.
But like, I mean, it never ends.
But at this point, it seems like it's literally just like an attempted genocide of like the Russians.
I mean, it's just hatred of the Russians.
It's what's driving the war.
I mean, did you see this weekend?
Canada's Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and Zelensky all gave
And the Canadian Parliament gave a standing ovation to a literal Nazi, an SS soldier.
The same government that said, you know, truckers that were honking their horns, honk honk, was apparently an ode to Heil Hitler, is what they tried saying for months.
They're now giving multiple, actually, standing ovations to an SS officer who worked a Nazi.
Like, I don't even...
The people who called conservatives, any conservative, a Nazi for the last seven years, they're actually giving standing ovations to real Nazi, in my opinion, war criminals.
Here's a video in case anyone is doubting that this actually happened.
The mainstream media tried to cover it up like, well, he was Nazi-linked, and then it was proven, even, you know, Twitter community notes actually got this one.
No, he was actually a Waffen-SS officer.
So watch
The guy reading pauses when he realizes that they're honoring someone, I guess because he fought the Russians who I actually thought were sort of our allies in World War II.
Maybe my history is a little bit fuzzy, but now they're honoring someone simply because he fought Russians in World War II who was a Nazi SS officer.
Check this out.
I gotta hear your reaction after this because it's mind-boggling to me given what they've said for the last few years.
Here in the chamber today, Ukrainian-Canadian world veteran from the Second World War, who fought the Ukrainian independence against the Russians, and continues to support the troops today, even at his age of 98.
...who fought one of our allies.
Yeah, and they're honoring a literal Nazi.
An SS officer.
That's because Ukraine is filled with fascists.
Ukraine and the Azov, Azov, A-Z-O-V organization, that is a fascist organization.
They have Nazism in their soul, even some of their damn flags and patches that are very recognizable.
So again, this gets back to
All right.
We're good to go.
And what they did was they decided, OK, we're going to join together.
And they did.
And you see China begin to rise in the 2000s, the past decade.
And now we see China buying up real estate.
We see China infiltrating every damn organization we got.
So China is partnered really closely with the corporate world in this country and, frankly, with a component of the political world.
So you've got to keep having a boogeyman.
If you don't have a boogeyman, you don't have any money, any place to spend these billions and billions and billions of dollars.
And so you've got to have that.
And that's where, that's why Russia, Russia, Russia.
It has everything to do with the racket called the military industrial complex, the security state complex, and all the things that we're up against today.
And I mean this.
I mean, these are things that, these are big ticket items.
How dare they go after—and now I'm focusing on you and your family—how dare they go after a president of the United States that did so much, didn't have to do any of it, like we all know, comes into politics, wins the presidency, does a lot for this country, and he does it in a way where, like him or hate him, Donald Trump was a great president.
Look at the things that he did for our country with the brutal attacks that he was constantly under.
And I could be, you know, I could actually be a very vindictive guy and say, you know, screw him.
He fired me, blah, blah, blah.
And, and, and be, you know, be an asshole about it.
Excuse my Irish, but I'm not.
And the reason why I'm not is because I know that I know that man and that man loves this country as I do.
And I knew then what I know, even, even more so now in spades, we are facing a
It's really an alliance against this country that wants to take this country over.
And I know that your father realizes that, and a lot of Americans realize that.
I mean, tens, probably a couple hundred million Americans now, because a lot of people come up to me, just like they come up to you, and they say, I'm afraid.
I'm afraid for what's happening to our country.
What should we do about it?
You know, and I get into the, you know, get involved in the politics, get involved in your local level kind of stuff.
This is not a time where the people in the White House are not going to wake up tomorrow morning and say, you know what?
We screwed the American people so bad.
We're going to open up the energy spigots.
We're going to build a wall.
We're going to do it.
No, they're not.
These people are going to triple down in between now and then.
How dare they go after a former president of the United States?
What we typically do with former presidents is we get them involved in maybe diplomatic
We're good to go.
On all sides to stop.
How dare you?
I mean, death without the total destruction of every Russian in existence, that's not an end result we're okay with.
But our support for Ukraine, it's never ending.
And it's not even clear to me what the mission is.
Again, when Trump said that about stopping the death, that wasn't enough.
We must totally obliterate them or something like that.
We're giving them missiles.
We're helping them strike Russian forces.
We're sending tanks.
We're essentially combatants in a war against one of the world's largest nuclear powers.
How do you think the risk of Russia using nukes, potentially, whether it's tactical or otherwise, escalates given, you know, we're not even fighting a proxy war anymore.
We're basically all in.
We don't even want to use the word nuclear, but this administration, and we've heard from the Russians as well, this is probably the most, in my lifetime, the most use of the word nuclear that I've ever seen.
I mean, you know, when you think about the crisis, the Cuban Missile Crisis, where there was some discussion then,
And then there was talk about the capabilities and the START treaties and all that sort of stuff.
But we're talking about the use of nuclear weapons and both sides are using them.
We hear it right out of our own damn president right now.
There is no mission.
There's no stated mission right now.
There is none from the United States, from the White House.
There's no stated mission.
And there are clearly no stated vital national security objectives, what we call vital national security objectives from this White House.
And you just wonder, you say to yourself, why the hell are we there?
What is it that we're trying to accomplish?
How long is this thing going to go on?
You know, what is exactly, what is it that we're exactly trying to achieve?
And why are we spending over $200 billion now?
We just lost almost $100 billion of equipment in Afghanistan.
We lost the war in Afghanistan.
We had 13 brave Americans, as well as many others wounded, but we had 13 brave Americans killed unnecessarily when we basically surrendered to the Taliban and retreated under fire and left Americans behind enemy lines.
So you led military intelligence efforts during the Afghan war, right?
So looking back at that withdrawal, and we can all agree it was a disaster and you were no longer involved in that for quite some time, but looking back at how the war ended, what were the major mistakes made and what should have been done instead?
Because you're right, it was a fiasco.
It was a disaster.
I remember my nine-year-old son, I think he was nine at the time when it happened, he's asking me,
Hey, Dad, why would we leave 86 billion in equipment?
Why would we give them biome... He didn't know the word biometric.
I'm not gonna be one of these woke guys.
You know, my two-year-old was asking about nuclear proliferation in the Korean Peninsula.
I'm not gonna bullshit you, but he was like, why'd they leave, like, scanners that we could find out who helped us and not?
Like, won't they hurt those people?
And I'm like, I had no answers for a nine-year-old because
You know, they were rhetorical questions that our military leadership didn't see fit.
You know, you had, you know, our Secretary of State, the incompetent Anthony Blinken.
I'm shocked and dismayed the Taliban, you know, we fought for 20 years, didn't install a more diverse and inclusive government.
I'm like, are these people insane?
Like, did they think there was gonna be like a Taliban trans coalition over here?
What's going on?
Yeah, they're not incompetent.
What they are is they have a completely different set of beliefs.
I mean, when you see human beings grabbing the tires of a C-17 aircraft, taking off from an airfield, I mean,
How can we allow ourselves to get there?
One of the data points from Afghanistan, not just the $85 billion, the $100 billion, that made the Taliban like one of the strongest militaries, like in the top 10 in the world when we left.
Honestly, God, I think it was number three at one time.
But one stat, one monetary stat from Afghanistan, we spent more money
That alone ought to tell you the waste, fraud, and abuse that we had there, and
And the way that we departed Afghanistan was embarrassing.
And frankly, it began this sort of process, this sort of path of failure.
And this is really where I do have a lot of angst with our senior military leadership.
Because at a certain point in time, if you're standing in a room
And you're like looking at this and you're going, well, wait a second, this isn't right.
This isn't the way we should be pulling out of here.
And the president or some secretary of state or some group of civilians is sitting there telling you, this is what you're going to do.
Shut up and sit down.
You know, then you take, you know, your stars that are on your shoulder and you throw them on the desk and you say, look, I'm not going to be part of this.
It might be a legal order.
It might be an ethical order.
It might be a, you know, I can tell you it's not a moral order because it's not morally correct to do something like that because you're about to leave citizens, particularly American citizens, behind.
So we don't have the bold, courageous leaders personally in our military in those areas right now that are willing to say, hey, look, this is bullshit.
We can't have this.
We can't have this forced diversity, equity, and inclusive, you know, this inclusive stuff
The DEI, they call it, forced down the throats of our soldiers.
Again, be prepared for, train, and win our nation's wars.
If we're not ready for that, if we're not ready to win, then we should stop everything else that we're doing and go back to the training fields and start training.
Go back to the ranges and start shooting.
Go back and start taking care of our
We're good.
Well, listen, but you know what?
They're not stupid.
They realize America under Biden is a big schmuck.
It's why they went crazy when Trump was like, hey, you're going to pay your fair share, like literally not more than your fair share, but like what you've agreed to in paper.
But they're used to blowing that off.
They blew it off before Trump and they're back.
Why would they pay if they know America's not going to hold them accountable?
Why would they pay if they know America's just going to keep footing the bill and not even ask the question?
I mean, it's crazy.
But, I mean, the same could be said about, listen, I got to ask your opinion closer to home.
I mean, in the last 24 hours, our Border Patrol has encountered 11,000 illegal immigrants on the southern border.
That's the highest day in recent history, maybe the highest day in memory.
If you look at the videos of the illegals coming in, it's all groups of young men.
They feel like these are men that would be serving in their countries.
This doesn't seem like a group of female refugees or men bringing their children.
You know, when you have refugees, it's fleeing actual persecution.
You have family groups coming over.
You have this.
These feel like fighting age men.
Can you talk about the national security threat of this border invasion and what it's creating?
Yeah, and on the battlefield we call military-age men, MAMs, military-age men.
The numbers of military-age men that are coming into our country, I mean, we think we have had in the last two years, we think that there's somewhere between five and six million illegals that have actually gotten into the country.
It's probably more than that, you know, with the numbers that are being caught, you know, they call them the getaways.
So we're looking at five to six million.
Let's just say, let's just say,
A third of those are military-age men, so we're looking at a couple of million
Military-age men, and you say to yourself, where the hell are they going?
And we see these encampments in the urban cities around this country, and what happens is they get grabbed up by some of the gangs that are running these.
There's definitely a route, there's groups of people that grab these guys in.
I'm concerned that somebody isn't pulling them in somewhere and training them for other worse things down the road in this country.
And I mean that.
And the other thing that we begin to look at is, these are not just Mexicans, right?
These aren't Mexicans looking to come into... That's what I want to ask about.
I see a lot of the Chinese.
I mean, it's not just people from South America.
They're from all over the place.
The Chinese nationals caught are up, I think it's like 300%.
I mean, is China taking advantage of this open border or are these just people looking to escape China?
No, no.
And the other thing about, you know, who are these people and where are they coming from?
They're coming from, because China's not going to let just like, oh yeah, go on, you know, go have freedom over in America.
These are people that are going to come over here and do bad things to this country, and some of them are being sent over here intentionally.
The others, like when you think about some of these other countries, particularly, you know, there's 164 different nations now that we have caught
I mean, the great Border Patrol agents that we have
They have their hands so tied, and they're not able to do the job that they can do.
And frankly, they need better leadership, and they need top-cover leadership from the White House on down.
But we're looking at people coming into our country.
We don't really have a clue who these people are.
We don't know where they're going.
We don't know who's taking them in and then controlling them.
You know, I mean, there's the various gangs in this country, right?
MS-13 is one of them.
One of the big, big gangs in this country that does bring some of these individuals in, and they have them join their various gangs in the cities.
I mean, the rise of crime, we have over 100,000, and I think the number, the 100,000 that I'm giving you right now is like, that's a July number.
That's back a couple of months.
100,000 killed in action, I call it, killed in action by fentanyl.
Fentanyl in this country.
Fentanyl is made in China.
It is then sent over to Mexico and then gets pushed up into our border and up into our cities.
So this is not just some drug war, some homeland security.
We're at war.
We are at war.
And one of the things that I would seriously
I like to see our Congress consider, certainly this White House or a future White House, your dad particularly, we have to look at designating these cartels down in Mexico as terrorist organizations and start treating them as such because if we don't, we're never going to
We're never going to deal with this problem, and people are just going to continue to float.
We can build a wall, and a wall does matter.
Fences around my property matter, right?
It keeps people out.
Walls around our country matter.
It keeps people out.
But now we've got, like I said, five to six million coming into this country.
We have an increase in Chinese.
We have an
I think so.
They're actually, in some cases, if they apply, they can get upwards of $2,200 a month in some kind of government grant stipend or whatever.
I mean, this is insane.
And you, the American taxpayer, have the privilege of paying for it all.
You get to pay for your family, you get to pay for this, you get to diminish your services that you actually pay for and fund
The invasion, I guess.
Speaking of China, I read an article today that China has recently been buying up a lot of real estate all over America.
They now own about 380,000 acres of land throughout the U.S.
That makes them probably a top five landowner in all of America.
I know you've been keeping an eye on the trend, but what's the endgame there?
Why is China buying up all the land?
Talk about it, because I imagine you know more than the basics.
This is another one of these very dangerous issues that's ongoing.
We should not be selling any land.
What China does, first of all, they essentially create shell companies that appear like they are U.S.-owned companies.
They create these shell companies, and then these shell companies get into the real estate markets.
The other critical thing about this is where the land is being purchased, and if you look around the country, it tends to be close to military installations, which is a very dangerous thing.
Also, I just learned, I was up in Michigan not too long ago, and the Chinese just purchased a giant piece of property to build two plants, working with the crazy governor up there, Whitmer,
Two giant plants that are going to be building electric batteries for electric cars in the future.
And I mean, the factories themselves are like 55,000 square feet.
These are giant, giant factories.
It's a Chinese CCP-owned organization in the state of Michigan.
I use that as an example of one of many.
Any governor, red state or blue state governor, that is allowing the CCP to buy property in this country, we need to stop that.
This is where the State Department, where the White House steps in and says,
No more.
We're not going to do this anymore.
In fact, we're going to look at every piece of property that's been purchased by a communist country in the United States of America for whatever purpose.
Because the more that they're given, the more that they're going to take.
People can call it a competitor.
They are an adversary as far as I'm concerned because China has a goal of global domination.
China has a goal of taking over the U.S.
dollar as the currency of choice for this country, and China has a goal of dominating the United States of America.
This
I mean, and I'm not talking about by the end of the century.
I'm talking about in the next 10 years.
Xi has already talked about that.
So we have got to be, we got to smarten up.
People in Congress need to smarten up.
Governors need to smarten up.
And you know, don't count on this White House smarting it up.
Don't count on this White House doing anything about it.
You know, two pieces of property that have been
That's right.
I'm not sure what the new name of it is now.
They changed the name a while back.
The Chinese government owns the Sears.
These are icons of American property, American real estate, and Americana, and were for the better part of 50 years, and now the Chinese government owns them.
So we have to pay very close attention to this and not allow any more of this to happen.
Yeah, I mean, you know, that's bad, you know, because of the historical significance.
But I mean, I'm more concerned about the farmland, the land around our military bases that are clearly being used to spy and or eventually maybe set up, or whatever, or to damage our ability to feed ourselves.
I mean, 380,000 acres of land.
I mean, imagine Americans tried doing that in China.
You'd get exactly zero acres of land.
If you did, they'd let you pay for it.
They'd take the money.
They'd commandeer the land in about two seconds and keep your money.
I mean, we're playing very different games with these people.
It's insane.
No, it is insane.
You know, one thing, again, I would just caution everybody.
We're not in a time... I can't sit here and tell you that unless something changes overnight, I'm not going to sit here and tell you that the next election is going to be a fair election.
These people will do whatever they can to stay in power.
And there are, you know, like I say, there's this global alliance that has formed against the United States of America, because of the weak, pathetic leadership that we currently have.
And they're going to take advantage of that in the, you know, in the coming months here.
I mean, the things that they're doing to your father, you know, who's a former president of the United States, this is unprecedented.
All the things that we've talked about here, the border,
You know, the border invasion, what's happened in Ukraine, the failure of our deployments and war over in Afghanistan, what the Chinese are trying to do in this country, what the Chinese are doing to our country with the application of fentanyl and just killing
I mean, over 100,000, that's just this year, and probably more.
And that doesn't describe those that are debilitated by fentanyl, because it doesn't just kill, it also maims people.
So all of this sort of body of insanity that we are dealing with, we're dealing with it with a regime in the White House that has no intention of letting up.
So they don't have any intention of letting up.
And I need your audience to understand that.
And all of the noise that we hear out there from the Republican Party, which I'm not a fan of the Republican Party.
I'm not a fan of either.
I'm not a fan of the parties at all, to be honest with you.
I'm a fan of this country.
And if people don't smarten up and really take on and really raise their voices,
You know, and use the platforms that they have at local level, at state level.
I wish we had more governors that would step up and really show some guts.
I think Paxton out in Texas there, with his fight through the impeachment process, was a really good example of somebody who stood up.
You, your family, are examples of people who have stood up.
I like to think that myself and my family are examples of people who have stood up and showed that we can beat these people.
We can beat this alliance.
We can beat this White House.
We can beat these thugs on the left.
And I mean that.
They're thugs.
I hate to think that the people that I knew in the FBI, that the whole of the FBI was like what we're seeing right now.
I hate to think that the people that I worked in the intel agencies for many, many years, that all of them are like the leaders that we see in the current, that are currently running these organizations.
You know, I don't want to think that they are, but the cultures in those organizations have to change.
They have to change.
If they don't change, then they have to be eliminated.
In some cases.
I mean, and I mean that because these cultures are so corrupt right now.
And what we've learned about censorship, about cancel, the cancel culture, you know, all these things, they matter and they matter a lot as we go forward between now and the election in November.
And the election in November isn't going to happen because we sprinkle fairy dust and poof, the better candidate is going to win.
It's only going to happen in a fair way if we continue to fight through all this stuff.
And one of the things that I'm encouraged by is this recent finding about Smartmatic.
Which is one of the companies that's out there that there was some recent legal findings about Smartmatic.
I find that, you know, I think that's a good thing.
And there's some judges out there that are beating back, you know, these guys that are going after our First Amendment and our Second Amendment rights.
So anyway, these are all things that matter.
These are things that I think that are going to come into play here in the next couple of months, particularly as we go through.
Last thing, and I'll shut up.
All these people that are running in the Republican primary, they all need to get out of the way.
I mean, it's ridiculous to say, I'm at 3%, I'm at 6%, I'm at 1%.
I mean, all those people combined aren't even close to where your father is.
So why are they wasting money?
Why are they wasting the country's time?
And why don't they just say, look, our country's at risk.
We need to put the best leader we can in office.
And he's not just a guy running for president.
He's a proven president.
That's my sort of soapbox for what is happening and what we could all be doing on behalf of taking care of this country.
And if we don't, I'm afraid of what we could become if we don't get through another presidential election in a fair way.
I mean, we didn't do it in 2020,
You've been out there standing up, and I think that's important.
I want to apologize also.
The fire alarm in the building's going off, so I got to deal with that nonsense, of course.
I'm like, what the hell is going on here?
But, you know, you've been talking about that.
You've been outspoken.
You have a reawakened tour.
I know you're coming to Trump Doral in October.
You know, I think it's that message of the ability to actually stand up and to push back
And to talk about these things, that so many people, you know, were pushed into a corner, they were told to be afraid, they're gonna come after you, but I think once people realize how many more there are just like them, sick of what's going on, sick of the insanity, wanting to push back, and once those people do, let's just say, reawaken, and actually start pushing back, they can't cancel everyone.
You know, what do you think is driving the popularity of these events, and where can people go to learn more about them?
Yeah, great.
So they can go to timetofreeamerica.com, timetofreeamerica.com, and you can get tickets.
You know, the one in October 13-14 that you're showing on the screen there at the Trump Doral.
October 13-14 is going to be a great event.
I mean, a wonderful event.
We'll probably have 3,000 to 4,000 people there.
Every one of these sells out.
I call this a Reawaken America movement.
This is the 22nd or the 23rd city that we have been in, in essentially a little over two years, and we've been all over the country with this thing.
We always sell out.
There's great, I mean, you've been part of these, and we really appreciate your support, and Eric, and you know, all the
You know, and even your dad calling into the show to these events.
The Reawaken America movement.
It's more than just an event, you know, a single event at a single location.
We have been all over the country.
This is a movement of grassroots people like this country has never seen.
And we are going to continue to do this.
We're going to be at Trump Doral in Miami, October 13-14.
Go to timetofreeamerica.com for tickets.
After that, we're going to be back out on the West Coast.
We're going to be in a place called Tulare, California.
And then we're going to be heading up to Michigan.
And we'll put out the locations and the dates as we go forward.
But this one in Miami is going to be a great event, another great event.
And it's two days of just, you know, America first.
Well, General, I know you had a hard out at seven, so I wanted to let you get going for that, but thank you for all you're doing.
Thank you for pushing back.
Guys, go check that out.
We'll definitely have to have you back on as more of this insanity unfolds, but I can tell from the commentary, the people that love you love you, and then the trolls want to go after you, so it probably means you're a hundred percent over the mark.
I've seen more trolling in the live chat today than I have
In a long time.
So I think they're wasting their time with actual patriots.
But, hey, you know, I guess if they're commenting and you're over the target, that probably is a good thing.
Yeah.
Oh, believe me, believe me.
I love the trolls, too.
I love all the trolls.
And there's a lot of them.
Hey, listen, that's the good thing about America.
I guess we're allowed that freedom of speech as much as they're trying to cancel that, too, it seems.
So, General, thank you so much for being on.
God bless.
Thank you, Donald.
Good to see you, man.
Be well.
OK, guys, before we get to the top headlines, I want to make sure you're liking, sharing, subscribing.
You know, I host a show on Rumble for a reason.
And this week, I think we found out that that reason is much more serious than we even suspect on a daily basis.
I hosted here because Rumble's founder, my good friend and CEO, Chris Pawlowski, is a champion of actual free speech.
Others say they are.
We're good to go.
for free speech because even Twitter with new Twitter like you know they capitulated to some of the other agencies and some countries that said hey we're gonna do it so as I'm sure you're aware Russell is being accused of sexual misconduct he denies all the allegations these women are coming forward to accuse him
I think it's 13 or 16 years later, right as Russell is starting to challenge the system on foreign policy and other issues like big pharma and vaccines and corporation inside
Insanity, corruption inside of governments, corruption inside our corporations at the highest levels.
YouTube already demonetized Russell Brand's show.
So if you're watching YouTube and getting your stuff there, find other places because they're definitely not a champion of free speech.
You've seen that.
But Rumble is standing strong.
Chris Pavlosky revealed last week that a member of British Parliament
A member of British Parliament sent Rumble a letter demanding that he demonetize Brand as well as everyone else who threw him out on accusations.
Decade-old accusations.
And, you know, it's not like Russell Brand wasn't out there.
He was, like, married to Katy Perry.
Like, nothing happened then.
Strange.
It's strange.
It's almost like...
It's almost like that's weird.
Like, you go against the narrative.
Maybe Andrew Tate.
They tried cancelling.
How many others have they tried cancelling?
You know, the corporations going after Tucker and the, you know, the accusations on Donald Trump.
You know, magically they appear 20 years later.
The second you put a R next to your name or you stand up to those big entities.
After Rumble said, back off, we're not demonetizing or deplatforming anyone.
Burger King and other sponsors like HelloFresh, all of which have their own issues that we'll probably start talking about ad nauseum, announced that they would no longer be advertising on Rumble.
So they didn't just cancel someone who says he didn't do something that random people just accused him of.
No evidence was presented yet.
No conviction, no indictment, no nothing.
We're just supposed to cancel anyone
Based on allegations.
Rumble and Chris won't back down.
They're true defenders of free speech.
Rumble is almost alone.
Almost entirely alone when it comes to resisting censorship.
Yes, Twitter, X, whatever, is better under Elon Musk.
But there are still major concerns about the algorithm engagement.
I hear that on a daily basis.
I know they also gave in to, I guess it was, what was it, Turkey or France or one of the big countries.
If you do that, we won't have you on.
So they give in and, you know.
It's not exactly free speech, but it's certainly better than some of the others.
YouTube probably being the most significant offender, but we've all been in Facebook jail and Instagram jail and all of this stuff for speaking things that were 100% accurate or fact-check with innuendo and bullshit.
I'm grateful to be on a platform like Rumble that lets me say what I want.
But guys, censorship seems to be the only way the left can win.
They have to silence you.
They have to hide the truth from you.
But it's not going to work.
And it's not going to work as long as we're all in this together.
It's, again, why I say like, share, subscribe.
Get this information out there, right?
Because the Biden disaster is getting so bad that even the far-left media can't hide the truth anymore.
Americans hate Bidenomics.
They hate the open border.
Watch this clip from ABC News this week.
You know, they're regime propagandists, sure, but even they have to be fed up and sick of it.
Check this out.
Overwhelmingly say they are not feeling good about the economy and that the president is to blame.
Just 30% approve of his performance on the economy, a career low, largely dragged down by pocketbook issues for families.
Like food prices that have risen 4.3% since last year.
Our poll showing more than 9 in 10 Americans rating them negatively.
Voters across the country telling ABC News they are frustrated.
As many upset about gas and energy prices after a brutally hot summer.
The national average for a gallon of unleaded gasoline this week hitting $3.88 per gallon, according to AAA, the highest level in nearly a year.
We just drove through California yesterday.
Gas was $6.39 a gallon.
That's ridiculous, in my opinion.
People can't afford rent.
And it's not just the economy.
The other hot-button issue?
Immigration.
The Biden administration attempting to mitigate yet another surge at the southern border as more big cities navigate the impact of the migrant crisis.
This issue will destroy New York City.
Authorities announcing there were more than 232,000 migrant encounters at the southern border in August, the highest monthly total this year.
The president says his policies are working.
We put in place policies.
That process people in a fair and fast way.
But our poll shows only 23% approve of his handling of the situation, another career low.
All this, putting his job approval rating 19 points underwater.
One of many challenges facing the incumbent president in his quest for re-election.
It gets better.
An ABC Washington Post, like Jeff Bezos' Amazon Washington Post poll also showed my father beating Joe Biden 52% to 42%.
Biden's failures and incompetence are too obvious to ignore anymore.
We will soon topple this regime and whatever other games they're going to play.
I think it was Jack Posobiec, friend of the show and regular guest, said, hey guys, we're outside of the margin of fraud.
And I think he's right because this idiocy, Democrat policy, is not working.
It's failing us miserably.
The recent polls show that Americans have lost complete confidence
in Joe Biden.
I don't know anyone dumb enough to actually have that, but you know, maybe a couple people had some confidence in him at some stage.
But the news is only getting worse for Democrats.
But that also means that we have to be more aware of the dirty tricks that will inevitably be coming in 2024.
And before I hop over to locals,
I'm looking at the live chat, and I'm going to take a couple more of your questions, because you had some good ones along the way.
Again, the trolls were out in full force, in effect, which means they're probably trying to discredit General Flynn again.
And I think he's right about all of it.
He was one of the first guys that was targeted.
And I think there's a reason for that.
And if you still think that's a coincidence, folks, you haven't been watching.
So, KWOF, don't underestimate how stupid some people are.
Yes, never underestimate that.
But that's again, but it's not even that they're stupid.
There's people that they don't do this.
They don't care about politics.
They never cared about the politics.
But they're starting to see.
I think so.
I think it becomes a no-brainer, and again, it keeps us out of the margin of fraud.
But I'm sure there'll be all sorts of games played in the meantime.
Some of you guys are saying you've been targeted too.
Yeah, no, 100%.
And again, they're not ignorant people.
Hopefully they've got to start educating themselves.
Uh, you know, I probably wasn't all that into politics.
I was always a conservative, but I didn't sit there and live it day in and day out.
I did other things and other people have jobs and they don't have that time.
But I think at this point, if they do, they're at a serious risk of losing their country.
Do you think your dad will rehire Flynn?
I think I'd definitely have him on some sort of, you know, advisory role to talk about.
I don't know what job he would want, but I think it'd be important.
I mean, there was a reason they tried to eliminate him.
Someone asked, you know, why didn't they pardon Flynn immediately?
Because you have the CIA, the FBI, the NSA saying that he's a traitor.
You know, why didn't pardon me?
You have to sort of go through all of these things and figure out what's going on.
But I think what was important
I'm perhaps good about the Russia, Russia, Russia stuff is that you spun up the whole world for four years and it turns out to be all bullshit.
Anyone who is paying attention is now aware just how bad that is.
Anyone who
Yeah, this is a big one.
I keep seeing it.
Cat Turd apparently got swatted today.
Is that true, guys?
So it is true.
Obviously, great political pundit, great pollster, certainly much more intelligent and much more in tune with the populace than anyone in the mainstream media and any of the polling organizations, but apparently Cat Turd
Got swatted today.
So, you know, again, Cat Turd's a great dude.
Has a lot to say.
Clearly over the target if they're targeting him this way.
But that's what people are like, oh, look, the right's violent.
They tried to overthrow the government in an armed insurrection.
You know, these dumb narratives.
I mean, the left is doing this to the right.
They are the ones.
Doing all the things they claim the right is doing.
So I hope everything's okay.
You had a fire alarm.
I know, maybe I was swatted too.
But yeah, I had a fire alarm going on for 10 minutes.
So hopefully that didn't interrupt the show too badly.
Not a lot I can do about that.
They're saying audio is low right now.
Liberals are cringe.
So maybe... I'm gonna blame my team.
You guys are all fired for probably...
Stopping you guys from having to listen to the insanity of that fire alarm for ten minutes.
I'm gonna blame Kim and punish her badly later on.
She's in big trouble, Kimberly.
But yeah, Cat Turd was swatted.
It is true.
And hopefully everything's okay.
Let's see.
Sound better now?
OK, good.
Will DJT pardon the J6ers?
Damn right.
Now, again, you got to make it if someone's out there punching cops, they're probably Antifa pretending to be, you know, J6ers.
But, you know, the people that were held there without due process, I mean, they should be released and compensated, frankly, from our government for the insanity that's going on.
But that's never going to happen.
Congrats, Junior.
Yeah, the trolls wouldn't be all over the thing if Flynn wasn't over the target.
Yeah, no, thank you.
Less than five months from now, we'll defeat Crooked Joe, DJT.
Well, elections not in five months, but the elections in, I guess the South Carolina primaries in five months, and we'll, you know, use that as the first step in South Carolina to take back the White House.
Yes, someone just said, am I flirting live with Kim?
Well, you know, I was basically screaming at her, texting her like, hey, turn off the fucking alarm!
What's going on here?
It took 10 minutes to turn off a fire alarm, but we're doing some construction on the house.
We're actually
Building out a bigger studio and in the process of doing some of that stuff.
So there's like constant construction going on.
So every five minutes someone hits something.
But I apologize for any inconvenience it may have caused you guys.
Is Flynn friends with Roger?
I think Roger speaks at a bunch of those events.
I assume you're talking Roger Stone.
So I imagine they're friendly.
And you know, I think Roger's been right about a bunch of those things as well.
Let's see.
This is Spiritual War.
Yep, that's right.
Wait, scroll up again.
It's going too fast now, so let's see.
The Russell brand.
Before, I was indifferent to Rumble, but with the Russell brand thing, I've got to admit, I'll be moving away from YouTube.
Hey guys, YouTube is literally the worst censor of that.
They demonetize fishing content now because it's cruelty to animals.
I guess Google's probably the worst, you know, just in terms of the search engine optimization and just search and how they hide stuff.
You saw how they hid Rumble's covering of the RNC and the debates last week.
But yeah, Rumble actually means it more so than any of the others.
I think Twitter's made a little bit of an effort.
Truth, obviously, same thing.
But, you know, some of those guys are still beholden to the App Store, right?
If you don't do that, they'll take you off the App Store.
And so that's how they regulate it.
Rumble's the one going all in on free speech.
It's not unreasonable to say, hey, maybe we're not going to demonetize, we're not going to fire, we're not going to stop someone from being able to make money based on 16 or 13-year-old accusations and nothing else just yet.
You know, by that logic, I mean, I could go around and accuse every leftist of something that they did to me as a child when I met them in New York City, and they have to be just totally... That would never happen.
It would only go one way, against people speaking out against the regime, not those willing to do their bidding.
So the whole Russell Brand thing is absolutely insane, and I'm glad that...
Rumble had the balls to fight back, and Russell, you know, actually said that.
But, you know, everyone else, YouTube, oh, you're canceled.
You can't make any money.
You can't defend yourself.
God, we're just going to believe someone from 16 years ago.
They were quiet for 16 years, but now, now magically, magically, they're up there.
Love you, Don.
Only trying to get to the bottom of why Russia stuff kept pointing at you all.
Great show today.
Because, again, they had to create a boogeyman.
You know, Russia will bring back the, you know, 80s Cold War stuff and do it and it's effective.
I mean, hey, I got Amundsen there.
Russia, they're doing this.
They wanted to create an enemy.
You know, now,
If you look at Russia or Ukraine, the mentality of the people, probably not all that different, but, you know, the leadership, Zelensky, actor, new homeowner all over the world, billions of dollars, you know, they can control that much more than they can Putin.
Honestly, I look at the stuff daily.
I see the trans spokesperson for Ukraine.
I'm like, man, are they trying to drive, like, free-thinking people over to, like,
Putin?
Like, you have to ask the question.
I'm not saying, you know, Putin's a good guy.
I'm not pretending anything like that, but like, it's like they're trolling you to go support him because of the insanity that they're pushing for Ukraine.
So, I'm also, guys, I'm pulling up locals simultaneously.
You can start taking questions over there.
Before I do that, I want to remind everyone, like,
Share, subscribe.
No one's going to do this for us.
We have to make sure to get this message out together.
Go check out our great sponsors, the people who are sticking with us despite big corporate like Burger King and otherwise.
And we'll talk about Burger King and what's in their meat.
Maybe we should actually fire back a little bit, not just allow them to cancel us, but let's talk about all the things that some of these corporations have done.
And maybe we'll do that in the next show.
Forbes Inc.
has Field Ethos going.
That's my outdoor brand that's going great.
Go check them out.
Go to FieldEthos.com and see what we're doing over there.

Support the folks at Patriot Mobile.
They donate back to the causes that you believe in.
They fight the school board battles.
They fight for the Second Amendment.
They fight for the First Amendment.

Or you can give it to AT&T whose parent company was trying to cancel Newsmax and OAN conservative content because they're woke as shit.
You guys choose.
But if you want to have your money working for the stuff you believe in rather than being weaponized against you, go to patriotmobile.com slash triggered.
You get fast, free activation and you can vote with your wallet.
Seems like a no-brainer to me.
You're going to have a cell phone in your pocket one way or the other.
Do it there.
That's patriotmobile.com slash triggered.
So with that, guys, if you put up locals, we can leave the live chat on, but I'll start taking the questions over there.
Can we blow that up a little bit?
Yeah.
Let's see.
Okay.
Toy1, thank you.
Happy to be there.
Thank you for having me, man.
It's good to have you guys.
Ray and Don, I'd love to talk to you about big government has done to my vet-owned business since 2011.
We're having to shut down this month due to government.
I used to tweet your dad on The Apprentice trying to get my company on there.
Yeah, well, listen, there's a war on it.
It seems like any small business
Um, you know, if you're not part of big corporate, you see what's going on with BlackRock, and they want to buy all the real estate, and all the this, and you know, if you're a mom and pop, you don't want to have, you want to rent, and you know, one day when they own all the real estate, they jack up the rents, and they own your ass for the rest of your lives.
This is a consistent theme.
It's why, you know, here on the show, big proponent of small businesses, you saw.
For those of you who haven't checked it out yet, go see Public Square.
Go to PublicSQ.com.
You can find other patriotic businesses.
You're going to give your money to a business.
You're going to buy goods and services.
Find people who are aligned with your values.
That's a big part of it.
Support companies like Reigns rather than some woke leftist who's going to give their money to all the shit that you hate.
There's a venue now where you can find those people.
If you are that business, get on Public Square so other people who share your values and freedom-loving patriots can find your business.
It's not just for finding those businesses, it's also for those businesses and driving business to them.
It's a unique atmosphere of people who all believe the same things.
Go to PublicSQ.com, sign up.
Whether you're a business, whether you're a consumer, go there and support those guys.
Put their kid through hockey practice or whatever it may be, rather than supporting the woke regime that has billionaires donating to them day in and day out.
You like the trans spokesperson for Ukraine?
I mean, that stuff's insane.
You had someone
Funded by the U.S.
government, talking about, literally, it seemed like they wanted to have hit squads going around combating Russian propaganda, which is anything that they don't like.
It may be right, it may be free speech, it may be any of those things, but it seemed like they were going to go out there and kill them, and we're funding this from the U.S.
government.
I mean, if you're not watching what's going on, that's crazy.
Big tobacco crush to your end.
Juul, which is owner, is out of Ukraine and funded the Dem National Committee in 2020.
Yeah, I don't know enough about the details, but yeah, you know, the big guys do that.
I mean, we're seeing that as a crisis in America right now.
You know, the big farmers driving out, and not farmers, right?
The big corporations are driving out the family-owned farming businesses.
The big corporations are taking out all the small businesses.
The big
Funds are buying out all the individual real estate owners.
It never ends.
There's a consistent theme.
So get on Public Square, find those businesses, support them.
Guys, if you don't think we're at like a war for our values at this point, I can't even help you anymore.
So I would say there's a thing that you can do about this but
You got to just do it.
You're going to search it anyway, so you can search it in Google, which is going to be like biased bullshit algorithms, or you can go on Public Square, support those who share your values.
So do that now.
If you haven't signed up, I expect you to do it right freaking now.
Found a house cleaner on Public Square.
This is Rebecca over on Locals.
Fantastic Patriot.
Great.
Rain, thank you, Don.
My pleasure, man.
USA Now, no mercy for the deep state on anything, especially finances.
Yeah, no, they're crazy.
Rainoshi says, you'll do it later.
OK, but write it down, because that's the only problem.
I've got to figure out.
I gotta get these shows to be able to put up the URL so that people can click on it, open it up in a separate browser, that way you're just bookmarking it for later.
Because everyone says, like, I'm gonna do it later, but they never actually do.
So, you know, same thing with, you know, our sponsors.
You're reading, but you're watching a podcast you're not watching, so you maybe think about it later.
In the show, I put down the URLs for our sponsors.
If you're looking for those things, check them out.
You do have a cell phone in your pocket, and I bet most of you are not with Patriot Mobile, so definitely go there.
PatriotMobile.com slash Triggered.
Or, you know, keep funding those who hate your guts.
The choice is yours.
Seems like an obvious one to you.
Yeah, I actually did something about that today.
They're putting it up.
They're like, he's going to be back on these dates in December.
Literally, no one has spoken to me about that.
Like I said, I will try to work with them to figure out dates.
So that has not happened.
No one's informed me of dates.
I haven't agreed to any dates.
Unfortunately, getting into primaries, my schedule is getting nuts.
I'd love to be able to do it because the outreach from there is crazy.
But I have people, hey, I can't wait to see you.
I'm like, what?
I looked and I found it.
I just literally had to tell them today, like, take that down.
Like, if I can get down there, I want to.
But literally nothing's been agreed to since the first one got cancelled because the government wouldn't give me a visa.
But yeah, if I can make it happen, I will.
I'll let you guys know.
USA Now.
You don't have any mobile devices?
Listen.
Hey.
If you're watching this, you're probably watching it on something that those guys can get into and hack anyway, so... You know, I'm not sure being off the grid that much is worth it.
I got hacked last week.
A guy actually had some fun with my Twitter account for a couple hours.
Twitter was actually very good.
I'll give credit where credit is due.
You know, stopping that and shutting it down.
I gotta find the guy, hire him, because he was actually pretty funny.
Some of this stuff was inappropriate and I would not be able to say without getting cancelled, but...
You know, solid content.
Saying Luke Down Under, you have many friends down here.
Yeah, Australia is one of those places I feel like there's a disproportionate.
I mean, if you're like freedom-loving conservative in Australia, you've gotten the shit beat out of you by those communists over the last few years.
Pathetic.
But there's a lot of patriotic people that believe in freedom, that believe in this stuff.
And, you know, prior to COVID, I thought that, you know, hey, Australia, maybe the gun thing, that's terrible.
And, you know, that wouldn't fly here.
But culturally, it's different.
But I guess you've accelerated your process towards communism a lot faster.
And I think it was people's willingness just to give up on that so quickly and the capitulation and then the capitulation on COVID that, you know, you live under, you know,
Essentially tyrannical regimes.
We pretend that they're for freedom and this, but it's all bullshit.
We saw that the hard way.
Let's see.
The stimulus bill hurt your business because you can no longer mail your products to your customers.
I'm not sure how that happened.
You know,
Hey, yeah, that can be rough.
I don't know.
I don't know enough of the details.
Oh, because it was tobacco products.
Yeah, I apologize.
I don't know enough about the fine print of that.
But you had a thing where you did have to do something to keep some other businesses afloat.
And I'm sure there's sort of unintended consequences of that, right?
And I'm sorry if that did it to your business.
I think it was well-intentioned and we got to get, you know, regular businesses back into control.
And now you read about the fraud and the graft.
And again, if they're leftists, they won't be prosecuted.
If you were a conservative business and you tried to follow the law, I'm sure you will.
So none of those things are perfect.
But I'm sorry to hear that.
Certainly.
Let's see.
Fetterman's dress code?
Yeah, no, that's a... I mean, it's just like so exemplar of what's, like, the Democrat... Like, one guy doesn't want to do something... Oh, let's just change everything!
Let's just... We'll change everything to accommodate an imbecile in the United States Senate.
Listen, I get that Fetterman is basically, you know, a vegetable and he'll sign whatever Schumer puts in front of him, but, like,
Doesn't stop him from dressing up decently.
He doesn't have to wear... Like, just stop.
Like, no one's buying if he can walk in through the building and whatever his disability is.
Trust me.
It's no harder to put on a sweatshirt than it is a dress shirt, okay?
Or easier.
Like, it's the same thing.
Give me a break.
But they gotta accommodate every Joker clown and we're the laughingstock of the world.
But I guess that's okay.
That's okay.
Gun confiscations ended any chance they had of protecting their freedom or semblance of it.
Yeah, that's lone wolf.
Yeah, no, I agree with that.
That was the problem.
But again, I think prior to COVID, we were like, okay, you know, Australia's like us and the UK is kind of like us.
They still have some freedom and Canada and New Zealand.
And it was like, no bullshit.
Like they're so far down the line.
It's insane.
Canada is not doing good either.
Yeah, no, the real, I talked about it in the show with Flynn USA Now, but yeah, the real, a real Nazi.
Now, I know every freedom-lover trucker that didn't want to get jabbed was a literal Nazi because Hong Kong stood for Heil Hitler.
That was the leftist
Communist narrative coming out of Canada, but now they applauded a real Nazi, an SS officer.
It's insane.
Yeah, Polish pastor was tortured and arrested and harassed by police.
Trucker organization's in prison.
This is USA Now, we're locals.
Former Canada Special Forces veteran held in solitary confinement.
They want to break you.
They don't care.
Here's an SS officer.
What do we care?
We'll just call everyone Nazis.
If everyone doesn't realize that everything these governments are telling you is a lie.
Then honestly, if we don't all wake up to it, we probably deserve what's coming, and what's coming's not good.
It's unreal what's going on, and it's gonna continue.
So, we gotta keep pushing back, guys.
Or it doesn't end well.
For those of you who don't know, by the way,
Kim and I, we're going out to California.
We're going to be at the, you know, the Republican, what is it, VP, you know, dog catcher, whatever it is, debates, counter-programming.
We're going to go live on Rumble before the debate, so we'll be there.
So make sure you guys check that out on Wednesday.
I think we'll be, I'm not sure we'll be able to do our shows on Thursday because we may be traveling back in all of that.
We're gonna be live on Wednesday prior to that, and so make sure to check that out.
I think we'll have some fun there.
Also probably be doing some of the other, you know, Locals and Rumble creators that'll be out there, you know, joining them.
So we'll have some fun.
And I've heard from people at the RNC that they're gonna let me into the spin room, that I will have a pass
So, that should be fun.
And I'll do what I generally do best.
But I recommend you watch my father in Michigan with the autoworkers.
He's going to be with the actual autoworkers, not the union
You know, higher-ups that represent them.
Same corruption, same bullshit, right?
You have a guy like Trump defending you, and they're, how dare you!
We won't buy it!
Really?
What, Joe Biden?
Who's shipping all their jobs to China to make EVs?
Hopefully, like everyone else waking up, hopefully the people who pay dues will start realizing that union leadership is not representing them.
If they haven't figured that over 40 years, there may also be no helping them.
But union leadership is a joke.
The hardworking people who work in those unions are awesome, patriotic Americans.
And they deserve actual representation, not what they're getting from union leadership.
Alright, well, we'll have some fun right before the debate.
You don't have to watch the debate.
I imagine nothing interesting is going to happen there.
But I recommend you watching this before the debate, and I'll probably have some interesting and fun stuff to say after the debate.
Got a take on California to turn this nation around?
Well, they got to do it themselves.
I mean, you know, that's the reality, right?
We believe in giving power to the states.
If they want those things, that's fine.
But I don't know who it's working for.
Certainly not the people of California.
And that's what's interesting is there's a lot of people in California that
I mean, I think it's got like the second most number of conservatives of any state in the Union.
The problem is, you know, you're outweighed by the insane people on the coast.
But the farmers, the... That's funny.
Meme.
Someone's posting a meme of, I wish Hillary married OJ.
That's great.
But, you know, those people need representation.
But if you're in California, you can't also pick up your ball and go home.
There's congressional seats that we got to win.
You got to get those people back in office.
That's how Congress works.
So they got to do a lot.
But it's like the people of New York.
It's like the mayor of Dallas.
That was an interesting one.
Mayor of Dallas, Democrat, basically switched parties this week to say, hey, like, this Democrat bullshit no longer represents the people.
We're going to fail.
It's going to be a disaster.
I'm switching parties because it's crazy and it's funny.
I have plenty of friends in Texas.
Spent a lot of time there.
And you go through Dallas and you go through the rich neighborhoods, you know, Highland Park, and they were all the
I remember doing this last election.
Beto sign!
You know, because these rich, like, white, suburban women, they're virtue signaling.
Like, you know, at their Starbucks with their $10 drink and they're fighting for all those things.
You know, now,
You know, if their children were ever in these areas, things would drastically change, but they get so much social credit by virtue signaling and being full of shit, it's truly scary.
But that's what's happening, because they don't know what's actually going on involved.
They're living in perfect homes and perfect neighborhoods and great schools and, you know, cheap labor with, you know...
They don't get what real people are going through, but those are the people that represent Democrats today.
And it's pretty scary.
Just wealthiest shit and totally out of tune.
And I get it, dude.
I'm the son of a billionaire from New York City.
But guess what?
If I can see it, everyone should see it, but these people are totally clueless.
And that's what's funding and fueling so much of the insanity that we see going on.
So with that, folks, appreciate all of you guys.
We'll be there live.
Maybe we'll stream locals as well, so I can see questions on Wednesday.
So locals, if we're not on on Thursday, we'll try to do this one live on Wednesday so I can watch the questions simultaneously with Kim.
So if you want your questions during those things, we'll probably have guests like we did last time.
We'll have some fun.
We'll go live for a couple hours.
Impromptu.
No scripts.
No bullshit.
Just have some fun.
And we'll see you there.
So, you guys are the best.
See you on Wednesday.
Probably not Thursday.
If I can get back in time, maybe we'll do Thursday anyway, but it doesn't look like it.
So, all you guys, we'll see you then.
Tune in.

I will see you on Wednesday, live from California.
