Putting the power of conversation into the caller's hands.
You're listening to The American Journal with your host, Harrison Smith.
harrison smith
Good morning, ladies and gentlemen.
Welcome to The American Journal.
It's indictment day.
Oh, everybody's excited.
We'll be, of course, covering the indictment, but so, so much more to cover.
We're not going to get distracted.
By the political circus.
No. Well, we will.
For a little bit. For a little bit, we will allow ourselves to gaze into the circus tent and watch the proceedings there.
But we'll give you the full rundown on what exactly is happening with Trump indictment today.
He expects to be back in Mar-a-Lago and giving a speech tonight.
But we'll get into it.
We got the Ukraine war to talk about.
We've got the Restrict Act to rally against.
We've got... Minorities under attack to defend.
Specifically white people.
But we'll get into all of it.
COVID news as well.
Just lots of stuff to talk about.
And we'll also be looking into one of the only, the last bastions of free speech on the internet.
That is the YouTube comments section.
What do you think the people out there are saying about the new trailer trying to encourage young men and women to enlist in the United States Army?
It's brutal, to be honest with you, and we'll cover that as well.
Take your phone calls, of course, throughout the show today, so let's just get into it.
it.
Here it is, your daily dispatch.
unidentified
All right, here it is, folks.
harrison smith
You Your Daily Dispatch for Tuesday, the 4th of April, 2023.
Trump in court today to be charged, fingerprinted, and have mugshot taken.
That's the headline out of Reuters, although there is some conflicting information on that.
Other exclusives saying that he will be avoiding the mugshot And handcuffs.
We'll see. Donald Trump, the ex-president and frontrunner to be Republican nominee in 2024, will appear in court today and will be set to be formally charged, fingerprinted, and have a mugshot taken in a watershed moment ahead of next year's presidential election.
He'll return to Florida and deliver remarks at Mar-a-Lago at 8.15 p.m.
on Tuesday, his office said.
The specific charges in the indictment by a grand jury convened are due to be disclosed today.
However, there have been some leaks.
Yahoo News late on Monday said Trump would face 34 felony counts for falsification of business records, citing a single source briefed on Tuesday's arraignment procedures.
Yahoo said none of the charges against Trump were misdemeanors.
None of the charges were misdemeanors.
They're all felonies.
How you can derive 34 felony charges off of one apparently mislabeled but legal payment is beyond me, but it's also beyond the scope of justice, and that's where we reside at this point.
Again, we'll expand on that a little bit in the next few segments.
Meanwhile, renewables surpassed coal in U.S. electricity generation.
For the first time, more electricity was generated from renewable sources in the U.S. over the course of one year than from coal.
As detailed below in the stories from Infowars.com, in 2022, renewable energy sources created more than 900 terawatt hours of electric power in the country compared to a little over 800 that came from coal.
On a global scale, a similar change is coming.
Of course, the question to ask is, is this like the big celebration with the Drax power plant in the UK where they celebrated a full 24 hours without burning any coal, celebrating this as a zero emissions victory when in reality they were burning trees that were harvested from British Columbia and Virginia, old growth trees that they ground into pellets and shipped across the Atlantic and burned and said zero emissions because we didn't do coal.
Is that the type of renewable energy we're talking about or is it the Windmills that take more carbon to produce than they create?
Or is it the solar panels that fill up landfills and poison the earth around them?
I mean, what are these renewable resources and why aren't they nuclear power?
That's my big question. Meanwhile, the Wagner Group claims legal control of Bakhmut while Ukraine says it's still fighting.
So this would be a major, major defeat for the Ukrainians to lose Bakhmut, and that is apparently what's happening.
At the same time, Finland is set to join NATO today.
They're poised to join NATO on Tuesday.
Historic realignment triggered by Russia's invasion of Ukraine.
So they advance militarily.
We advance diplomatically.
The world advances towards World War III.
Finally, NASA announces first four people to circle the moon.
In half a century or ever, we don't know.
And we don't know if this will be real either.
unidentified
here.
It's Tuesday, April 4th, year of our Lord, 2023.
And you're listening to The American Journal with your host, Harrison Smith.
Watch it live right now at band.video.
All right, welcome back.
harrison smith
Ladies and gentlemen, this is The American Journal.
So glad you're with us this Tuesday morning.
Hope everybody's doing well.
He's doing a bit of a...
Bit of a deep dive yesterday on the Trump indictment.
Just trying to get a full scope of what exactly we're dealing with here.
unidentified
And I don't know if I got anywhere.
harrison smith
I don't know if it... If I discovered anything anybody doesn't know already, but the full holistic view of this indictment really paints what a ridiculous scam it all is.
I mean, it really is just a complete scam.
You've got multiple ways of looking at this.
You know, I almost wanted to do a segment where it was like actually angled towards like addressing liberals.
I don't know why I insist on thinking that you can reason with these people, but How would NPR report on this if they were honest and unbiased and judicial in their coverage?
How would you present this to a liberal without offending them and having their firewall shoot up because they hear aggression and they get scared and stop listening?
I don't know. I don't know how you address this, but I know that when you just take a step back and look at the full timeline, it's It's astonishing how many attempts have been made to indict Donald Trump on something.
There are multiple, I mean almost, certainly too many, Wikipedia articles that are just things like lists of There's investigations against Donald Trump, and you just keep scrolling, and there's just more and more and more.
More accusations, more claims, more potential indictments, more investigations, more demands for subpoenas.
I mean, it goes all the way. I mean, it goes back to even before he was running for president, which is pretty amazing.
But certainly you have, you know...
Another aspect of it is the way that one charge spirals out into multiple charges.
So you have the Russiagate charge, which in and of itself is such an eye-opening example of just inordinate coverage, where you've got the Clinton campaign having done the thing that I guess they're charging Trump for now to ignite the Russiagate investigation.
right they paid a source illegally from campaign funds to come up with fabricated dirt on donald trump that they then laundered through the fisa process in order to get search warrants on him so the entire russi gate investigation like that would be the main one that would be the primary one probably the biggest claim as well he was a russian agent he was working for the russians a man elected to the presidential office through the coordination and subversion of a foreign power my god can you imagine
well you have to because it's not real because it never happened and they investigated it for two years and then what happens is they investigate it Trump is president at the time and could legally have shut it all down immediately.
It probably would have been good for the country if he had, right?
It probably would have been good if just ignoring all the naysayers and just went, look, we got things to focus on that are real.
We're not going to let you spend millions of dollars and dominate the headlines for two years and disrupt my entire presidential office, you know, holding off this completely fabricated claim.
But instead he, you know, He was nice about it.
He let him do what they were going to do.
But that didn't stop them from claiming that he was obstructing justice by speaking out against what was going on.
And so that's what happens.
That's the spiraling out I'm talking about.
They'll launch an investigation.
They'll fabricate a claim, launch an investigation over it.
He'll go, this investigation is fraudulent.
What are you talking about? This isn't happening.
And then they'll go, oh, well, because you said that, now it's obstruction of justice.
Now we're going to charge you with obstruction of justice or intimidating witnesses.
So it's like this self-perpetuating magnification, multiplication of charges on any one of these charges, any response from Trump, then results in other potential charges, which I'm sure if he saw...
Speaks up about them. It'll be other charges, right?
He fires James Comey and charges about that.
And then he, you know, says that James Comey was a bad guy and they'll want to charge him on that.
And, you know, the other thing about this is, I guess, you know, potentially or technically this has to do with his campaign, but he wasn't in office at the time, which is a distinction to keep in mind because On top of all of the fake charges that they've tried to bring him up on over the last several years that have all completely and utterly and frankly embarrassingly failed.
You've got the actual charges against other politicians that have not been carried through to the end.
People bringing up John Edwards, a very similar payoff that he did with a mistress all the way back in 2012, I guess, and Pointing out that he wasn't charged with 34 felonies for what was actually even a worse example of misappropriating campaign finance.
You've got Hillary Clinton, Bill Clinton, like half a million dollars paying off to Chinese lobbyists.
You've got the Paula Jones payoff.
Where that was actually a rape claim.
So it's actually a criminal complaint.
And then the payoff on top of that.
So, I mean, that was even worse.
And then you had Hillary Clinton actually in office, you know, smashing her devices with a hammer and bleach bidding and completely destroying her devices after the subpoena had been issued.
Just flagrant violations of the law.
And you had James Comey come out and admit, yeah, she broke the law, but we don't think she meant to.
We don't think she meant—we read her mind and we decided that she's a good lady, so we're not going to charge her with anything.
Like, just the level of overt favoritism by the Department of Justice.
You don't even have to get into the details.
You just need a memory longer than a goldfish.
And all of this is obvious.
All of this is apparent readily.
And that's not even getting into the actual indictment that he's being charged with today, which is a whole other series of— Mitigating circumstances and bending of the law to fit the charges.
But just to give you a quick little list here, you've got Russiagate, you've got obstruction of justice over Russiagate, you've got the impeachment over Ukraine, which again, you want to talk about going down the rabbit hole of people being accused of the things that other people are doing.
You literally have Joe Biden on video bragging about blackmailing Ukraine into getting rid of a Anti-corruption officer that was investigating his son and his business.
I mean, it just, it's so flagrant.
It's so flagrant. It's infuriating, all of this stuff, but we continue.
There wasn't just the impeachment over Ukraine.
There was the impeachment over January 6th.
The impeachment was over incitement to violence.
And then on top of that, they had the January 6th committee that was trying to claim that he was Donald Trump was carrying out some sort of coup to overthrow the United States.
So multiple attempts to bring about criminal charges.
That's the other thing.
It's kind of hard to even get a handle on where the charges are legitimate because you just have constantly dozens of potential charges all being pursued by various aspects of the Justice Department or NGOs and lawyers going out and finding people who can claim to be victims to try to progress some sort of civil lawsuit about a criminal matter.
I mean, it's just... And so, you know, nothing ever came from the January 6th committee because it was an embarrassing failure like everything these people do, but...
There was still a lot of talk of potential charges.
There was a lot of pressure being pushed on the Justice Department to try to bring charges, and there still might be one day.
I mean, all these cases are still ongoing.
There's still an ongoing case with a phone call to the Georgia Secretary of State over the election.
That's another one that they're attempting to still bring to him.
There were his tax returns, which, do you remember, got released?
You remember for like five years, everybody was screaming and pulling their hair out about Trump's tax releases.
And then they get released after like continual pressure to try to get them released to try to because they're sure that there's something in there that they'll be able to charge him on.
Like that's just another type of investigation.
It's not so much as investigation as just continual pressure and lobbying and political maneuvers to try to get his tax returns released.
They get released earlier this year and nothing comes of it except for I guess this indictment did have to do a little bit with the release of the tax documents.
But there were no crimes that they found.
So shoot, that one fell to the wayside as well.
You have the classified documents investigation.
That one is still ongoing.
Again, similar kind of thing where it's like, was it illegal for him to have the classified documents?
We don't really think so, but maybe we'll try to charge him on that.
But either way, because he doesn't allow himself to be taken advantage of, they're going to try to charge him with obstruction of justice in that matter.
So, again, every time one of these indictments happens or one of the potential charges comes to the fore and Trump responds, they try to charge him with obstruction of justice.

All right.
harrison smith
Ladies and gentlemen, this is The American Journal.
We'll be taking your phone calls throughout the show today.
I don't know, I'm torn as always, right, because...
unidentified
You know, it's like...
It's like the war with China.
harrison smith
You could say, well, it's a distraction.
It's manufactured. It's not a distraction, but it's manufactured.
It's a manufactured conflict.
But it's both manufactured and also real.
You want to sit there and go, look, our competition with China is not a real thing.
It was our industries that got sent over to China.
All of it's fabricated.
We're not really at war with them.
We're not really going to go to war.
There's nothing real about it, except for the bombs that will potentially fall and the men that will be potentially—those are real, right?
The war in Ukraine. The conflict, as most Americans know, is completely different from what it really is.
I don't know. It's just—it's like— So the thing with Donald Trump, it's both a distraction.
There are other things we could be focusing on, should be focusing on, and will focus on later in the show.
But it's also very real.
It's also something that's actually happening.
It needs to be paid attention to.
So we're not going to spend the whole show on it.
There is other and potentially more important stuff.
But at the same time, it's very real and very historical what's going on here.
And I think the way that The Guardian, or not The Guardian, The Daily Mail covers it, Sort of puts it in the appropriate historical perspective.
They call it Trump's date with history.
How Trump's date with history will play out.
Former president will travel from Trump Tower penthouse to Manhattan courthouse for booking, fingerprints, and historic hearing, then back to Mar-a-Lago for speech to decry the case.
Right? They're tracking this moment by moment.
Laying out his...
They actually have a map here laying out exactly where he'll be going and when.
They say a new chapter in American history will be written today when Donald Trump becomes the first former U.S. president to appear in court facing criminal charges.
Trump's unprecedented journey will begin when he departs Trump Tower penthouse in midtown Manhattan around 10.30 a.m., closely guarded by a Secret Service detail for an 11 a.m. arrival at District Attorney Alvin Bragg's office downtown.
Once inside and away from the glare of the world's media, the 76-year-old is expected to have his fingerprints taken but will likely avoid the humiliation of having to pose for a mugshot, according to reports last night.
Trump will be ushered into the Manhattan Criminal Courthouse, which is inside the same building as Bragg's office, for the landmark arraignment hearing.
All the while, law enforcement officials will be praying that the inevitable swell of protesters outside, a mixture of MAGA fans and anti-Trump activists, remains peaceful.
A huge security operation will be underway with thousands of NYPD cops on standby in case violence breaks out.
After the court appearance, which might only last about 15 minutes, Trump will fly on his private jet back to Mar-a-Lago, his result in Palm Beach, Florida.
And there's the map and the timeline of exactly how this is expected to go down.
Could be surprises here.
We don't really know. We do know the DA's office in New York is a slippery fish and may try to pull something out, may try to throw him in handcuffs and go, actually, we want to hold you overnight.
No one's above the law after all.
If you'd murdered someone, you'd be back on the street today, but you're Donald Trump, so no one's above the law, they'll say, as they pick and choose who to charge and who to let off the hook.
So we'll see.
We'll see how this goes.
Trump will be taken into the district attorney's office.
He'll likely hand over any personal items for safekeeping, including objects like a wristwatch or his cell phone, before giving personal information like his name and date of birth.
His fingerprints will likely then be taken.
Inferious Trump supporters will be rallying outside during all of this.
The key question about this part of the booking process is whether Trump will be escorted by his Secret Service detail.
Defendants are typically processed without their attorneys present, but it's not clear what rules apply to Secret Service agents.
Which I would say, you better stay with the guy.
You better stay with him.
I think inside a government office in New York might be the least safe place for Donald Trump right now.
These psychopaths running things.
You know, like I was saying in the last segment, there's a lot of reasons to look askance, to...
Turn a suspicious eye to these indictments, not the least of which is because there have been so many other attempts to get Donald Trump on something, anything, whatever we can get him on, let's get him on that.
Has he committed a crime? Is there a victim to point to to say, this person was victimized by Donald Trump, so therefore a crime has been...
No, of course not. No, no, there's nothing like that.
No, there's just a man that they hate and want to destroy and throwing whatever they can at him.
There's like a weird...
There's a couple phrases you could blend together to be something like they're throwing the book at Trump to see what sticks.
Is that a fair way to put it?
I don't know. But, you know, you've got the January 6th committee and the January 6th impeachment, the Ukraine impeachment and the Russiagate collusion nonsense that they investigated for two years and the obstruction of justice that spawned from all of those.
You've got the classified documents thing.
You've got the tax return thing.
This investigation is not DA Braggs.
It was originally started by Cyrus Vance, I think his name is, back in 2017 when they were trying to find something to charge him with and they landed on this and then You've got Letitia James, who is investigating this, but also investigating a bunch of other, you know, Trump businesses, trying to get him on something.
You've got the rape claims from E. Jean Carroll that were completely blown out of the water and, you know, proved to be nonsense.
You've got the Georgia election.
So you've just got a very long list of attempts to indict Donald Trump, all of which points to him being innocent of everything and being a victim of political persecution through the Justice Department.
And then you have also the times that this claim in particular has been either litigated or at least brought forward to some sort of authority.
This should be a federal crime, right?
If it's a campaign finance claim, then it should be a federal claim.
It shouldn't even be in this court but they're labeling it as something else to get around that particular stricture.
Then you have the evidence that it never should have been brought including statements, signed legal and official statements from the claimants here I guess.
I mean, they're not defendants because they're not the ones suing.
They're just being used by the DA. But Michael Cohen himself has written a letter in 2018 saying that...
You know, the claims that he was given money to give to Stormy Daniels from Donald Trump and that it was inaccurately labeled are completely fabricated.
In his own words, Stormy Daniels herself, multiple times, many, many times over the years, denied that the affair ever happened and signed a piece of paper saying that she was never paid for her silence.
So you've got those which you can consider mitigating circumstances or evidence that He's innocent of the crime in general.
I mean, I think there's a reason that Trump seems so confident in this, because it is such a weak case.
And it's such a weak case that even the mainstream media is admitting that this is not a case that should have ever been brought.
Bloomberg has this story. Why Trump indictment is being criticized as a weak zombie case.
Ex-prosecutor Pomerantz signs a gnarly legal question in case Trump indicted Thursday.
This was last Thursday.
Details of Trump's indictment remain secret still at this point, although it's another aspect of it.
Parts of the indictment have been released, which the release of the indictment information would in and of itself be a felony.
So again, we'll get into how mainstream media is covering this and what's happened since he's been indicted and since he went to New York and all those people gathered and were protesting over it.
But again, just the number of mitigating circumstances here.
From the cases that came before, the particulars about this case that means it should have never been brought, and the fact that the statute of limitations has expired, and that it was upgraded from a misdemeanor to a felony, even though the vast majority of cases go in the reverse direction in the same office.
This is just hogwash.
unidentified
It's all just hogwash. Alright folks, welcome back.
harrison smith
A zombie case.
They're calling it a zombie case.
That's the term that's popularized in the mainstream media about this case brought against Donald Trump.
The first indictment. First indictment of a former president of the United States.
Really incredible. Just mind-blowing stuff.
Now... As I was researching this yesterday, really just astonished.
Like... Mind blown, just baffled by the sheer weight of the number of charges and indictments and lawsuits against Donald Trump over the last few years.
I mean, really, it made me realize Donald Trump must have literally a corporation's worth of lawyers just defending him at all times from these constant, continual attacks against him.
It's It's crazy how the American legal system can be abused.
If you just, you know, I mean, if Trump wasn't a billionaire, he would be gone by now.
But I guess he has enough to pay for all these lawyers.
And he wins a lot of these cases, so then he, you know, countersues and knows how to play that game.
And it's actually pretty incredible.
But, like, there's an entire category on Wikipedia called Donald Trump litigation that just has hundreds of There's a whole other one called List of Lawsuits Involving Donald Trump that just goes on and on and on and on and on.
Legal Affairs of Donald Trump is a whole other Wikipedia article.
About all of the various things that Trump has been involved in.
He's been totally clean the entire time.
It's just absolutely crazy how often this goes, how often this occurs.
And even just in this case, with this indictment, the number of instances where they've tried this.
This is at least the fourth grand jury on the same topic.
Four. Four grand juries they've taken to try to get this decision.
Of course, that's a whole other story, right?
Is the leader of the grand jury going on CNN just being like, I'm so excited to get Donald Trump.
She's just like this weird little goblin woman.
Just crazy. All of this is just absolutely crazy.
So, again, just like scrolling through this a little bit.
This is the Wikipedia article. New York Criminal Investigation of the Trump Organization.
Now, of course, Donald Trump has been a huge figure in New York for longer than I've been alive, right?
He was, you know, read Donald Trump's book.
Read The Art of the Deal. I remember reading it during the campaign, and other people...
During the 2020 campaign, they'd be like, well, Andrew Yang's a businessman, and he's just like Donald Trump, because Donald Trump was a businessman.
It's like, I don't think you understand what type of businessman Donald Trump was.
By the early 80s, Donald Trump is like having lunch with the Cardinal of the Catholic Church, and then he's having dinner with the Vice President of Montenegro.
He wrote, like, he has been a dealmaker at the highest levels for 40-plus years, and he's been a fixture in New York City, and his company had been massively successful in New York City for decade upon decade.
But it was only once he became president that suddenly they wanted to look into the books and thought that he was a criminal somehow and launched investigation after investigation and grand jury after grand jury trying to find something to charge him with.
A little bit suspicious, in my opinion.
In January 2017, ahead of Trump's inauguration as president, his attorney announced that the Trump organization's businesses would be transferred to a trust, and by August of 2018, Manhattan District Attorney Cyrus Vance Jr.
was considering a criminal investigation of the organization and two of its senior executives for their reimbursement of then-Trump personal attorney Michael Cohen for a hush money payment to Stormy Daniels.
This investigation on this particular case has been going on since 2018.
You can only imagine the amount of resources that have been poured in to trying to get Donald Trump on this thing that literally doesn't matter at all, like even a little bit.
Even a little bit. I'm suspicious that it ever happened in the first place.
Because how much would Trump really be willing to pay to stop a rumor about him having a liaison with a porn star 10 years ago?
I mean, what would he really, why would he even care about that?
Because I was thinking about it, I was like, I don't even, I think if, you know, some big busty blonde porn star was like, I'm going to say that Trump had sex with me, he would just be like, okay, cool, good.
He's like, it's pretty well known I do that sort of thing, so that's fine.
It's not going to affect me.
I don't even know if that... But that's just my speculation.
But the whole thing just makes no sense.
This is not some uncovering of some massive criminal conspiracy.
This is literally the most petty, vindictive politicization of the Justice Department there's ever been.
But it started all the way back in 2018.
In August 2019, Vance subpoenaed the organization's accountants.
The DA suggested in August 2020 a federal court filing.
They could be under investigation for bank and insurance fraud.
Oh my gosh, that's totally legitimate.
I can't believe it. There was a first grand jury in May of 2021.
Didn't really go anywhere.
There was a second grand jury in October of 2021.
They heard evidence on November 4th about the valuation of assets.
There was a trial in August of 2022.
Then there was a third grand jury, and now there's a fourth grand jury.
So at the beginning of 2023, it was reported that prosecutors hoped to bring new charges against Weisselberg to pressure him to testify against Trump, possibly regarding the hush money payment to Stormy Daniels.
The crime of the century!
Paying a porn star to blackmail the presidential candidate.
Oh, God. How will the republic survive?
But how will the republic will survive this type of pettiness and vindictiveness?
It's hard to see.
It really is hard to see. So, again, this is the fourth grand jury investigation.
And, you know, grand juries are kind of like the...
January 6th committee.
The defendant doesn't even know they're going on.
So the prosecutors get to present whatever they think they need to the grand jury, and they don't need to overcome the burden of proof that a trial jury has to overcome, which is beyond a reasonable doubt.
It's just, there's another phrase, I can't even think of it right now, but it's...
It's not as high as beyond a reasonable doubt.
It's just like a reasonable suspicion that this happened, and then it goes to trial.
So it's like a practice run sometimes.
I mean, it's hard to... To impanel a grand jury, it takes a lot of resources, a lot of time, a lot of the court's effort to do one of these things, but they'll do it over and over again until they get it right, right?
You try to do a grand jury, it doesn't go your way, so you just go, yeah, never mind, never mind, forget that grand jury.
That was a joke. I was joking about that.
And then you do it again and tweak your message to overcome the shortfalls that you had earlier and, you know, try to get it again.
So you just... Rinse and repeat and just do it over and over and just abuse the legal system continually, wasting millions of taxpayers' dollars on this petty and vindictive political charade.
So what are the charges against Trump?
Bragg hasn't disclosed them yet, but Cohen claims Trump approved the hush money and reimbursed him through the company, which falsely recorded the checks to him as legal fees.
Which again, just, is that even a crime?
Is that even a, like, okay, so they paid a lawyer and they called it legal fees and that's what all of this is about.
Fantastic. So again, it's not even about the charges that they're charging him with.
They're saying that the charges that they're claiming about falsifying records was actually to cover up Other claims of falsifying other records.
I mean this is the Russian doll level of just nonsense that we're dealing with.
New York State and, so Bloomberg again asked the question, what is so unusual about Bragg's case?
Well, New York State and federal government have their own campaign finance laws, and Bragg is just a state prosecutor enforcing New York's laws.
If he's alleging Trump was falsifying records to cover up his federal election law, that would be a novel legal theory.
Don't you love the way they phrase these things?
Translation, he doesn't have jurisdiction in these matters, and yet he's bringing the charge anyway.
They don't say that.
They skirt around that by calling it a novel legal theory.
There's a novel legal theory that he's dealing with.
In other words, he's making it up as he goes along.
Mark Pomerantz, a special assistant district attorney who quit in 2022 over Bragg's handling of the Trump probe, called it a gnarly legal question.
Another way of kind of obfuscating what he actually means, which is he's abusing the law to go after a political opponent.
But it's a gnarly legal question.
Yeah, very gnarly. What is the risk of relying on Cohen as a witness?
He's already signed a letter saying he didn't do this.
So, you know, in a murder case or something, if you have, like, a signed piece of paper and the witness goes, yeah, that was a lie.
I lied about that. But I'm not lying now.
Like, you basically just brush it. It's a worthless witness.
Lawyers wouldn't even bring them up.
Because they're like, they've already perjured themselves.
The jury knows they're not trustworthy.
And that's Cohen in this case.
Alright folks, wrapping up here with the indictment coverage where we move on to some other things.
No pump lines for your phone calls.
I hope you can tell. I'm trying to go as fast as I can through this stuff.
The problem is there's just so much information to get through and it feels like you need to get to all of this information.
You get the holistic, the big picture, the zoomed out view, the 30,000 foot perspective on this.
So you can really understand the scope and scale of the abuse of the Justice Department, which is at the heart of this.
It's not even about Trump necessarily.
It's about setting a precedent for the Democrats to be able to just do whatever the hell they want to gain power.
In fact, there was a really good quote from Victor Davis Hanson today, a prominent historian.
I'll try to find that quote here because he sums it up really well in just the way that The Democrats sort of take on this idea of they're the good guys, so anything that they do is justified, and if you respond in any way that is equal or even close to equal, that you're the bad guy for standing up against them.
If y'all can find the Victor Davis Hansen quote about that, I want to read it out.
That's really at the heart of this.
Again, It is about Trump because obviously Trump is the one they're...
Oh, look at that. They pull it right up.
Victor Davis Hanson, again, prominent.
Historian at a, I think he's at Stanford or he's at some California university.
He says the left is saying to America, quote, we are so morally superior to you that we can and must employ any means necessary to achieve our unpopular political ends.
But you cannot respond in kind or deter us by mimicking our own tactics because should both parties do so, the resulting disorder would undermine the republic.
And that is something you won't dare to do.
Which is pretty amazing. And actually, if we can scroll down to the comment just below that, it was somebody else.
There was another one earlier that was intelligent.
Basically pointing out that because liberals and Democrats don't have sort of innate respect for the system, they're not trying to conserve anything.
They don't have values.
They have goals. They're going for something, and they don't really care what they have to destroy in order to get it.
And Republicans don't have that leeway.
Like, we actually want to uphold the systems of justice that have served us so well for so long.
So, like, we're not going to do that anyway.
And they know that, so they use that against us.
And that's really what's at the heart of this.
I think he's exactly right in how this works, right?
They will politicize the Justice Department.
They'll go after peaceful protesters and charge them with terrorism.
They'll charge former presidents with petty nonsense indictments but upgrade them to a felony, just completely abolishing the rule of law in the country in general to get their way.
And then if you stand up against them, they say, you're destroying the republic.
You're a threat to democracy. It's Pure and utter projection that is undermining in a very real way the very foundations of what makes us a free country in the first place.
It's tyranny and just a very haphazard and multifaceted manifestation.
So continuing on here with Cohen as a witness, Cohen as the lead witness, the main witness, the only one that this whole case hinges on is a little bit tricky because Cohen, as Trump's former fixer, claims he's the one who made the payments to Daniels on behalf of his boss.
His credibility as a convicted felon would come under sharp attack by Trump's lawyers.
Cohen says that the payment was a campaign violation made at Trump's direction.
Trump, who denies having an affair with Daniels, has said he was extorted and doesn't concede it was a political donation.
There are other potential cases against Trump, and critics of Bragg say that charging Trump over a hush money payment before he was even in office is kind of a poor choice for a first ever indictment against a former president given the prospect of more serious charges in Georgia and Washington, D.C.
That, of course, over the election engineering when they cheated and stole the election in Georgia and also the documents that.
classified documents, that they're claiming Trump tried to stop them from looking at even though he completely opened his doors to them.
I mean, everything that they're doing is completely fabricated.
No one case is any stronger than any other because they're all totally politically oriented and unnecessary, petty, vindictive, all the other words I've been using to describe it.
Meanwhile, President Trump comments on DA Bragg illegally leaking bogus Trump indictment to the press.
President Trump shared on Truth Social the additional crimes committed by the crooks running the New York DA's office.
The story from the Gateway Pundit says, We know Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg is backed by George Soros and promised to indict President Trump when he was running for office.
He's as crooked as the day is long, and he's not all that bright either.
Again, just taking in the full scope of this, understanding really what we're dealing with here.
You've got a guy who wants to run for Manhattan DA and says, I will charge Donald, I will focus, my primary purpose of being in office will be to charge the former president with a crime, any crime.
I'll find something to get him.
And then, you know, George Soros hears that and goes, oh great, then we'll give you millions of dollars and we'll contact our friends in the media.
We'll make sure you get the position, but you have to carry out this promise that you made us.
And so that's how we have arrived with So it's a coordinated effort by pressure groups and George Soros and people that George Soros is just the front man for, and Alvin Bragg, who is their stoolie and their lackey and their henchman in this prosecution.
But there are others as well, and we'll get to those in just a second.
But here's what Trump said on Truth Social about this.
He says, I know the reporter, and so, unfortunately, does he.
This means that he must be immediately indicted.
Now, if he wants to really clean up his reputation, he will do the honorable thing as district attorney, indict himself.
Say what you want about Trump.
He's a funny guy. That is a funny thing to say.
He should indict himself.
It's true. I mean, it is like a felony to leak this stuff.
So it's just crazy, right?
They're committing felonies in the pursuit of charging Trump with a misdemeanor that they upgraded to felonies.
Incredible. He'll go down in judicial history and his Trump-hating wife will be, I'm sure, very proud of him.
Vicious, Trump. D.A. Bragg just illegally, he also says this, D.A. Bragg just illegally leaked the 33 points of indictment.
There are no chances or surprises from those he leaked days ago directly out of the grand jury.
No crime by Trump. What a mess.
Bragg should resign now!
Now, resign now!
Hilarious. He should indict himself.
How can you not like Trump?
My God. In the follow-up to this, in the aftermath of this, Trump campaign has raised $7 million since the indictment.
Which, again, puts in perspective all those claims of people like, Donald Trump only supported the vaccine because Pfizer gave him a million dollars.
It's like, you know Trump makes four million dollars anytime he wants.
He made seven million dollars from this indictment.
He made four million dollars from digital baseball cards.
The man is a money-making machine.
That's how he got to where he is.
But it, again, goes to show that the people in America are not fooled by this, right?
Trump supporters are not going, I trusted Trump until I learned that he mislabeled a campaign donation, and how will I trust him now, right?
Everybody has a pre-established opinion on this.
The left is that Trump is some sort of criminal mastermind that he just keeps getting away with it.
We have to stop him.
And the right is just like, this is obviously political nonsense.
Nothing is being changed, but it doesn't matter.
It's not about perception.
about power.
Alan Dershowitz has said the DA Bragg or the jury member that leaked this information could face up to five years in prison because it is in fact a felony.
Trump seems pretty certain on who leaked the unconfirmed details of indictment against him, again saying that he knows the reporter and so does Bragg.
MSNBC, of course, does not hesitate to make this a racial thing.
Trump's attacks on Bragg aren't business as usual, but the original headline here was Trump's arraignment shines light on his racist legacy because see they chose a black guy.
They chose a black guy to charge him, so now whatever Trump says.
Because I'm sure if it was a white guy, Trump would be like, you're right, I'm guilty, and this man is a respectable genius, and I will return myself over.
Like, come on, shut up. Trump's going to attack whoever you used to try to charge him, and you used black people on purpose so that you can then phrase Trump's defense as being somehow evidence of his racist behavior.
That, again, like his criminality, you've never been able to find evidence of.
Although they go back to 1989 in an op-ed Trump posted about the actually guilty, in my opinion, Central Park Five.
daughter of judge and then you've got just a whole series of other entanglements when it comes to the da office daughter of judge overseeing trump's case worked for kamala harris campaign and now serves as the president of a company that has biden harris campaign as a client so you actually have members of the biden harris presidential campaign with their family member is the judge her father is the judge of the case here he's overseeing the tax fraud case of trump's organization and trump's org's cfo alan weisselberg
um trump's been described as a i'm sorry merchant is the name He's been described as a lifelong Democrat, and the bombshell discovery of his daughter's LinkedIn account reveals his daughter is not just a Democrat, but a Democrat who previously worked on Kamala Harris' presidential campaign.
Incredible. And then you have attorney Matt Colangelo.
He's the link between Soros-backed D.A. Bragg's office in the Obama White House and Biden DOJ. Matt Colangelo is the link between Biden DOJ and DA Bragg and their corrupt acts in targeting and putting together a BS indictment against President Trump.
The guy was in the Obama White House in the Biden DOJ and appears to have been brought in specifically to indict President Trump on whatever he could come up with.
So again, you've got the Soros-funded NGOs.
You've got them choosing the one DA that promised he would dedicate his time and effort to prosecuting Donald Trump.
They staff his office with former Biden White House officials.
and the judge, his daughter, works for the Biden campaign.

After being suppressed for almost a year by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, a new report has been released which uses dozens of studies to prove that fluoride consumption lowers a new report has been released which uses dozens of studies to prove that
Internal emails show that the report was blocked by the Transgender Assistant Health Secretary Rachel Levine and concealed from public since May of 2022.
As reported by Capital in Maine on March 14th in an article titled, Health Officials Delayed Report Linking Fluoride to Brain Harm, quote, Last May, the National Toxicology Program was set to release its eagerly awaited report into the cognitive and neurodevelopmental impacts on humans from fluoride exposure.
It was to review studies which link fluoridated water to cognitive harm in children.
But, quote, Before the NTP could release the report, they were blocked, said Linda Birnbaum, NTP director until 2019.
Apparently, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services hid the report after criticism from organizations that advocate water fluoridation.
Such as the American Dental Association, who casted doubt on the report.
In February of 2022, the American Dental Association emailed Rachel Levine and others, asking the NTP to exclude or carefully consider how to characterize any lingering neurotoxin claims from the report because it might, quote, undermine national, state, and local efforts to expand community water fluoridations.
Well, that's the whole point in reviewing if fluoride could be a neurotoxin, to avoid more harm to people, especially children, through water fluoridation, let alone expand the practice, a practice which most of the world rejects, and many countries have even outlawed it, especially in Europe.
So after a subpoena forced the NTP to release the report, it was quietly published for the public to view.
In the report's overall findings, they concluded, quote, The data support an inverse association between fluoride exposure and children's IQ. They even put it more simply, stating, quote, Evaluated IQ in children provide consistent evidence that higher fluoride exposure is associated with lower IQ scores.
Even adding that"...subtle shifts in IQ at the population level have a profound impact." However, even though 52 of 55 studies found decreases in child IQ with increased fluoride, the National Toxicology Program says they have found"...no obvious threshold for total fluoride exposure or water fluoride exposure." Just like with COVID, it's a tale of two sciences.
So why does the US government fluoridate our water?
What science is there to back up the fact that 73% of people connected with community water systems receive fluoridated water?
Just over two-thirds of the U.S. population.
It's important to point out that fluoride is a term generally used to refer to a variety of chemical compounds made from fluorine.
These chemical compounds are the toxic waste product from various industries, such as nuclear weapons manufacturing, aluminum production, and the mining of minerals used in fertilizers.
Because the proper disposal of such toxic waste is expensive, these industries have found a way to make their waste product profitable by selling it off as a helpful agent of dental hygiene.
However, these compounds are toxic to the human body, to our bones, our hormones, and our minds.
To learn more about the history of fluoridated water, read Christopher Bryson's book, The Fluoride Deception.
Or watch the documentary, Fluoride, Poison on Tap, directed and produced by the same team who brought you COVID land with InfoWars.
The documentary features Edward Group, Mike Adams, and various scientists and health experts who break down the entire fluoride hoax that's been perpetrated on the American people.
Also, remember to filter your tap water, because chances are, our government will never stop pouring toxic waste into the water supply.

We'll be right back. Welcome back, ladies and gentlemen.

The second hour has begun here at InfoWars.com, Band.Video.
This is the American Journal.
We're moving on. We're moving on from the Donald Trump indictment.
Always takes me longer than I think to cover things like that when you have just so many variables to get into.
But we're moving on because we have a lot of other stuff to talk about.
A lot of other major and bizarre stories, truly.
And just more abuse.
Oh, here it is. Okay, I found it, guys.
Um... Yeah, it's something else.
I kind of just want to go through these headlines.
Every one of these stories could be, you know, an hour or two of discussion.
Let's just start with this one from Infowars.com.
Double speak. State Department warns about online censorship, then threatens to, quote, hold platforms accountable.
Okay. In a startling display of doublespeak at the Summit for Democracy 2023, United States Secretary of State Anthony Blinken warned about more countries, quote, using the internet to try to control speech, and then claimed the Biden administration is trying to promote an open internet before threatening to, quote, hold platforms accountable for so-called harms.
Uh-huh. Got it.
Just okay. That's a lot to take in right there.
Blinken raised the alarm about the internet growing more closed, more insecure, more siloed by the day.
And that's a bad thing, except when we do it.
Because of hate. He continued by stating, quote, more countries are putting up firewalls and shutting down access, using the internet to try to control speech, quash dissent, spread misinformation and disinformation.
Secretary of State followed up by claiming that the Declaration for the Future of the Internet, a 60-country commitment to bolstering resilience to disinformation and misinformation, reaffirms the U.S. commitment to an open network of networks that respects democratic principles and human rights.
It really is 1984.
It really is, you know, in order to preserve democracy and free speech, we have to institute authoritarian free speech controls.
To save democracy, we have to ignore the will of the people.
And just what?
Everybody listening should just be going, is this a joke?
Is this supposed to be funny?
It's not funny. It's sort of horrifying that you're saying this in all seriousness.
What are you talking about?
But this is what they're doing.
After lambasting other countries for closing off the internet and positioning the Biden administration as a paragon of openness, Blinken pivoted and said, we have to do better at addressing some of the risks that come with the open internet.
He then proposed a delicate balance between openness and security, protecting speech and preventing incitement, and, quote, fostering innovation and limiting the power of big tech.
So, in other words, they want free speech and openness...
Up to a point. They want free speech and openness until it's a topic that they would rather not have discussed, which means it's not free and open at all, really, at the end of the day, even a little bit.
And this is the way most control systems work.
They wouldn't get away with just saying we need to have a Chinese-style, Russian-style firewall where we control the discourse 100%.
So what they say is it's totally open and free.
There's just a few things that you can't mention.
It's the only few things that matter.
It's shifting. It's keeping that Overton window as wide as possible while still excluding the things that actually are a threat to their power and actually are the heart of dissident outrage.
Not content with suggesting a balance between protecting speech and censoring speech that the Biden administration deems to be incitement.
Which, again, can be things like questioning the election.
Because some people had a protest that got violent over the election.
So therefore, if you point out how the election was suspicious, you're feeding the flames of the potential violence that broke out because of the things that you believe.
So, suggesting...
That the election was fraudulent is therefore incitement of violence.
Even though you're not inciting violence, you're expressing the ideas that could potentially incite violence.
It's a simple sort of algebraic equation that they plug in to allow them to censor anything and justify the censorship of anything.
The president's made clear that we need to hold platforms accountable when they fail to address the harms caused by their technology, from the content they spread to the algorithms they use.
And of course, they're already issuing, they already have issued the Biden administration executive orders dictating that algorithms must...
Blinken's comments comes days after the introduction of the Restrict Act, a bill that would give the U.S. federal government additional powers to crack down on free speech.
The bill claims to target foreign adversaries and is widely thought to be aimed at China's TikTok, but the powers in the bill are so vast that it would give the federal government the ability to ban a wide range of apps and online services if they're deemed to be, quote, national security threats.
And of course, just look at the way that they claim Russian propaganda.
That if you simply question the war in Ukraine, they say you are carrying water for Vladimir Putin.
Vladimir Putin is our enemy.
Therefore, you are spreading mis- or disinformation.
And they say, I mean, we have clips of these people enacting these policies going...
The tricky thing about disinformation is it can be true.
It can be true information that's applied incorrectly.
It's just like, okay, so let me just do a little, let me just resolve that algebraic equation.
Let me just do a little translation for you.
You want to censor true information.
You want to censor true information because if people knew the truth, they would hold opinions or views that are contrary to what you want them to hold.
So you're censoring the truth so that you can force people to believe the lie.
I think I got it. I think I got it.
I think I understand now. I think I get it 100%.
Understood. Yes, sir.
We understand completely. Meanwhile, of course, you know, all of this, just like the, you know, massive depopulation program that's going on, just like the World Economic Forum Great Reset programs being implemented, the censorship is Is a very useful outcome of the war that they created.
They start the war, then they say, well, we're at war, so now we have to censor you from telling the truth about the war because that means you're carrying water for our enemies.
Why are they our enemies? Well, because we went to war with them.
I mean, just, why'd we go to war with them?
Well, you can't talk about that.
That's incitement to violence.
Mind-blowing stuff happening because of this war, including things like this.
Zelensky government demands Orthodox Church leader be put under house arrest.
Ukraine's top security agency notified a top Orthodox priest Saturday that he was suspected of justifying Russia's aggression, a criminal offense, amid a bitter dispute over a famed Orthodox monastery.
Metropolitan Pavel, the abbot of the Kiev-Pershek He cursed Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelensky, threatening him with damnation.
During a court hearing in the Ukrainian capital, the Metropolitan strongly rejected the claim by the Security Service of Ukraine, known as the SBU, that he condoned Russia's invasion.
Pavel described the accusations against him as politically driven.
SBU agents raided his residence and prosecutors asked the court to put him under house arrest pending the investigation.
The hearing was adjourned until Monday after the Metropolitan said he wasn't feeling well.
So this is sort of the ultimate outcome of our democracy, the battle for democracy.
We have to save democracy.
Ukraine is a democracy. But if you speak out against the government in Ukraine, even if you're a head priest and an honored cleric, you will be arrested, you will be manhandled, you will be put into cuffs and thrown into a jail cell to preserve democracy, you understand.
I mean, this is the state that we're moving towards.
I mean, we're already in it as a world, but, you know, America as a bastion and a singular example of a country that actually has free speech built into its foundation, we're still headed in this direction, as you can see from the statements from Anthony Blinken talking about,
or the Restrict Act, which would probably be the type of thing that would get things like priests in this country thrown into prison for daring to suggest You know, in alignment with their political conscience or their religious conscience, rather, that maybe we shouldn't be at war with Russia.
Maybe we shouldn't be spreading death and destruction for the benefit of, like, Goldman Sachs and BlackRock so they can remake Ukraine in their image once the destruction is wrought.
See, these are our allies. These are our friends.
If you're against that, if you don't like that, well, Anthony Blinken and the Biden administration are working very hard to make sure you cannot express that idea without being considered a threat to democracy.
Something's more threatening to democracy than the people of that democracy speaking up and speaking their minds and being informed.

Just madness. Welcome back, ladies and gentlemen.

M4s.com, band.video.
You know, you hear a lot of people on the left, one of their favorite terms, one of their favorite sayings is to be on the right side of history.
They perceive some far-off future where they have complete control of the narrative and the fake news of today becomes the unquestionable history of tomorrow.
And when people 100 years from now look back, We're good to go.
Parasites? Paralegals?
Paralegals? Parasites, I was saying.
I was saying parasites, actually.
You know, people that haven't contributed to the building of this country, but did decide, you know, once they moved here, they should be in charge and that they understood America more than the people that lived here.
And that by changing everything extremely rapidly and without consideration for the desires of people that welcomed them into the country, they were somehow improving the country despite the fact that literally everything has gotten worse continuously every time they get their way.
And they're going to look back at this time, they're not going to see that.
No, what they're going to see is brave minorities standing up against the hateful Nazis that used to run this country.
So they'll be able to completely pervert the historical record as they pervert the real-time – Dan Carlin, the host of Hardcore History, always says journalism is just the first draft of history.
So they pervert the first draft and everything that comes after is going to be a little bit off the mark.
And that's what they're hoping for.
And they foresee this decades from now, looking back and having their view of the world solidified in stone and all of the contrary evidence eliminated from existence, censored out of circulation.
So their story is the only one that's being told.
And they're basically saying, get on our side and you'll be on the side that wins and that therefore writes the history.
So you'll be on the right side of history.
But at InfoWars, we don't have to speculate.
We are on the right side of history and we have been.
How many of the people now saying that you have to give up your country and surrender your history and just shut up and let everything be taken from you because you're on the right side of history?
How many of them were on the right side of history when it came to the Iraq War?
How many of them were on the right side of history when it came to the Patriot Act?
When it came to all of these things that InfoWars has been on the right side of history about?
How many of them were on the right side of history about Waco?
Now there's Netflix specials about Waco admitting that...
You know, it was complete abuse by the FBI. Everybody recognizes now what really happened at Waco.
The only people, the only holdouts in the topic of Waco are the murderers themselves, the ATF and the FBI who continue to, you know, celebrate the immolation and miniature holocaust of dozens of women and children as some sort of heroic activity.
They're the only ones that still feel that way.
Everybody else, everybody in public knows that Waco was wrong.
At the time, who was standing up for the victims of Waco?
Well, Alex Jones was.
You can go back, just search. You can search, like, his name is Timothy Tibbold or something.
The guy who wrote the book that the series was based on.
Go back and watch interviews of him from the 90s and early 2000s.
He calls out Alex Jones by name as the only person that was helping to spread the message of the reality at Waco.
Alex Jones, when with his own hands, was building the church, rebuilding it at Waco as a memorial to the victims.
So, the left can talk all they want about being on the right side of history, on the assumption that they'll be in charge and be able to write the history 100 years from now.
We don't have to speculate. We are on the right side of history.
We have been on the right side of history, and we will continue to be on the right side of history as we oppose the war in Ukraine, as we oppose the Great Reset, as we oppose the merger with the Chinese Communist bloc to create some total government conspiracy world order.
We are on the right side of history.
We will continue to be on the right side of history.
And we have been provably on the right side of history the entire time.
So... Join us, won't you?
Join us on the right side of history.
Support the reality by going to Infowarsstore.com.

We'll continue to operate. We'll continue to tell the truth about what's going on.
We'll write that correct first draft of history...
Here on the American Journal and on the War Room and on the Alex Jones Show and on band.video, we'll continue to provide that library of information as long as the Restrict Act doesn't pass and they don't get the ability to sever us at the IP level.
We'll continue to be here because the only thing limiting our ability to exist is...

Again, once you need storable food, it's too late to get storable food.
Get it now. If you never need it, if it's never an emergency situation, then at the very worst, you've purchased really delicious meals that you can eat anytime that are easy, that take like two minutes to make, and are better than anything else you'll find as prepared food in the store.
I'm sure we haven't run it in maybe years at this point, but I think even before I had the American Journal show, we did the taste test where I was taste testing mac and cheese from the Infowars Life Select storable food versus from the store-bought Blue Box brand.
And it was legit.
The stuff in the Infowars Life Select...
Food package was so much better.
I mean, it was night and day. It was like grandma's home cooking versus school cafeteria.
It was so good.
So this food is actually good. It's actually delicious.
And I wouldn't say that if it wasn't true, right?
If I was just selling you, you know, MREs.
Meals ready to eat. And I was just like, look, it tastes like sawdust, but it'll keep you alive.
I would say that. I'm not saying that.
I'm saying this is actually delicious food.
So the worst case scenario is you buy extremely affordable, like cheaper than normal food, extremely affordable, lasts for 20 years.
In an emergency, it can save your life.
And in not an emergency, you have a delicious ready-to-eat meal.
I mean, talk about a win-win situation.
On top of that, you're supporting InfoWars and everything that we do here.
So there really is no reason...
It's the best deal you can possibly imagine.
And the water filters are back, and the air filters are back.
The air filters will change your life, folks.
Especially if you have pets.
You know, it's the type of thing where like...
If you have pets, you stop noticing the smell of pets.
You just get used to it, you know?
But then, like, you go on vacation, you come back home, you go, my house smells like dog.
Why does my house smell like dog so much?
Like, you can get rid of that smell.
You can get rid of that atmosphere and you'll notice the difference.
So I keep one by my kitty litter box that we have in our laundry room.
And it's amazing.
You know, the Alexa Pure Breeze has the light on it that it goes blue when it's clean and you can set it to like automatically detect particulate in the air.
And so my cat will go in to use the litter box and you'll see the Alexa Pure Breeze kick on.
And that light will turn red saying there's pollutants in the air.
And then it'll slowly go from red to blue as the air is purified and cleaned and And that unpleasant smell is whisked away with the power of the carbon filter's And again, it's just what nature does.
You know, you have a block of carbon.
If you leave a block of carbon out on your desk, in a week it'll be covered in dust because it attracts it electrostatically.
And that's all that we're taking advantage of with the Alexa Pure Breeze and its similar technology in the Alexa Pure Pro water filtration system, which is just incredible stuff.
You saw that fluoride video by Brian Wilson, you know.
It's really not an option.
Like, you need to be filtering your water.
You need to be filtering your air.
You need to be prepared for whatever comes next with the storeable food.
You need to be going to InfoWarsStore.com and purchasing these things to keep us on the air and in the fight.
InfoWarsStore.com. Go there today.

Give us a call. So a lot to talk about here in terms of Great Reset as well as the overall state of war in this new phase of human existence.
You know, right now we're at a crossroads.
We're at a crossroads between two competing New World Orders.
On one hand you have the World Economic Forum and their Great Reset Initiative.
The Chinese initiative is called the Global Civilization Initiative, the Belt and Road Initiative.
So it's China's global civilization versus the World Economic Forum's Great Reset.
Now the World Economic Forum's vision of the future is a tightly controlled technocracy where constant surveillance and social credit scores Are used in conjunction with, you know, climate change propaganda, carbon limiting CBDC,
central bank digital currency to control your life and surveil you at a transactional level and cut you off, limit and direct your ability to behave enhanced by AI and manipulated through, you know, a tightly controlled informational channels.
That's the World Economic Forum's view.
The Chinese view of a future world order is literally exactly the same.
It's actually exactly the same view.
It's actually not two different views.
It's actually just one view but with two different faces.
And my suspicion is that the World Economic Forum is being set up to lose.
I think that the Chinese system is a little bit more efficient in their ability to control.
But maybe this will be like the East will be under the Chinese style.
The West will be under the degenerate WEF style.
But that can't exist for very long.
So I have the feeling that one's going to overtake the other.
So, you know, this is a planned and orchestrated, a manufactured conflict by the elites that run this country and the Western hegemony, the unelected bureaucrats that are currently operating a de facto world government, a neo-feudal world order in which you don't have a say or a vote, but they a neo-feudal world order in which you don't have a say or a vote, but they are able to
by definition, a Congress to set policy that then gets implemented through the national process.
So the whole Division between these two worldviews is arbitrary at best, non-existent in reality, and they're all being operated by the same corporate and banking interests that run both China and the Western world.
So it's a manufactured conflict, but it's also a real conflict.
This is what I was talking about earlier, how it is all fabricated.
It is all presented to you in a particular way, right?
They're going to Use the threat of China to get conservatives into this idea.
They're going to use the threat of white supremacy to get liberals into it as well.
Whatever they have to use to get you to go along with their little plan, that's what they're going to use.
Unless you reject it outright.
Now, I would suggest a third or rather just a second option here, which is the re-imposition of humanity.
To, once again, reassert the value of free will and independent human beings, the individual human beings and human beings as a collective.
To reassert our basic God-given right for freedom of expression, freedom of thought, and to be free from the influence of tyrannical pressure from anybody.
That would be, you know, the American option.
So you've got like the Chinese Communist option, the World Economic Forum Great Reset option.
Those are really the same option.
And the other appropriate good option is just to reassert what it is to be an American and to once again reestablish and reclaim our right as Americans to a world that values human freedom and is not controlled by technocratic elites.
We'll see how that goes.
But again, just because the conflict is manufactured doesn't mean it's not real, doesn't mean it's not an actual threat to us, doesn't mean that war with China may very well happen and may very well destroy this country as I think they are setting us up for collapse and death and chaos as they offshore their operation just like they've offshored doesn't mean that war with China may very well happen and may very well destroy this country as I think they are setting us up for collapse and death and chaos as
From Reuters.com analysis, rather, China's intensifying nuclear armed submarine patrols add complexity for U.S. allies.
China is for the first time keeping at least one nuclear armed ballistic missile submarine constantly at sea, according to a Pentagon report, adding pressure to the United States and its allies as they try to counter Beijing's growing military.
And of course, they are combining and.
Well, before we go to Russia, another major fact of national security when it comes to China is that.
China, in addition to pumping up and empowering its traditional military, is engaged in a extremely widespread.
Subversion and infiltration campaign.
They're very successful in Canada that's Why is President Biden ignoring the Chinese invasion at our southern border?
The numbers of this are incredible, and it points out that the Chinese invasion at the southern border, which we've seen video of recently captured with Chinese nationalists, who are just like, they're walking around.
Reporters are like capturing them on video, and the Chinese don't know if they're reporters or not.
They just like walk up and are like, hi, where are we supposed to go?
Is this the right way to go?
And the reporters are like, I don't know, you're invading our country.
Don't ask me where you're supposed to be going.
So they're just like openly crossing now.
While the Biden administration is fixated on its proxy war in Ukraine, emptying both our ammunition stockpiles and our Strategic Petroleum Reserve, selling it to China, by the way, China is quietly sending thousands of military-aged males across our southern border.
It is virtually impossible for the Chinese nationals to leave China without permission, much less buy an airline ticket to Ecuador and pay the $10,000 to $30,000 that cartels charge to cross the border.
To purchase an airline ticket to Ecuador, Chinese nationals must have a passport and an exit visa.
Something says freedom like having to get permission to leave a place.
Incredible. Fewer than 10% of Chinese nationals have a passport, and it's practically impossible to get an exit visa without an act of God.
Somehow, thousands of military-aged men from China are booking tickets to Ecuador with nothing more than a backpack and a passport.
Once they reach Ecuador, they're met by CCP-backed NGOs who arrange their travel to the U.S. border.
Given these facts, it's almost certain that the Chinese Ministry of State Security is organizing and funding this invasion.
Certainly worth discussing.
It is estimated that fewer than 1 in 10 Chinese nationals crossing the border are apprehended.
That means with as many as 90 Chinese nationals caught per day, as many as 900 are making it into the U.S. So again, speculation, but the speculation is that there could be up to 900 Chinese nationals a day funded and ferried and Working with the Chinese Communist Party,
900 a day crossing the southern border, the vast majority, over 800 of which, are undetected by our completely flagrantly treasonous Border Patrol chief.
Once these Chinese nationals are in the U.S., they're monitored and supervised by a network of Chinese aid organizations.
Six years ago, Chinese Communist Party began a concerted program to fill both domestic and internal NGOs with loyal party members in an effort to spread its influence and control.
Additionally, China has opened more than 100 police stations in countries around the world, including the U.S. So, again, fabricated conflict, but a very real invasion at our southern border of Chinese nationals is just now being uncovered.

War. All right, folks, out to your calls momentarily.

I can't believe we're already at the last segment of this hour.
Let me remind you again to go to Infowarsstore.com.
Purchase product. It will help you in your own life and, of course, help keep us on the air.
It is a true 360 win.
But on top of the fact that, you know, there's so many other benefits from this, it's really a 720.
It's a 720 win. It's not as catchy as 360, but I think it's more accurate.
Of course, there's Dr. Jones' Natural, 25% off that.
The new turmeric toothpaste is only $12.95.
You can order that now with a special introductory price.
There's also the Great Reset autographed copy of that fantastic book.
There's only 1,000 copies available, so if you want to get your hands on that, now is the time to go to Infowarsstore.com, where you can also find the survival essentials, the things Infowars is known for.
we are but humble water filter salesmen here just do a little bit of truth telling on the side go get your water filter your air filter your storable food your supplements your toothpaste your books your movies your dvds your t-shirts everything at infowarsstore.com right now keep us on the air again we are going to go out to your phone calls in just one minute we're going to start with uh mark and uh probably kevin so guys down stay on the line but just wrapping up here because the numbers from this story are truly staggering again
we're talking about the chinese nationals crossing the border they say up to 900 a day are getting across without even so much as being approached by the border patrol unfortunately the 90 that are caught are promptly released as they claim to be pro-democracy activists who would be killed if they returned to china according to the cbp which actually you know to be fair I mean, they don't qualify for asylum because once you get to a safe country, you aren't an asylum seeker anymore.
So if they're going through Ecuador and all these other places that don't imprison democracy activists, then you're fine.
But to be fair, they at least have a greater claim about their government persecuting them than any other people from South America or Central America.
Chinese expats who are dissident to their nation actually do face threats from them, so we'll make that note.
But... They claim they're pro-democracy activists who would be killed if they returned to China.
According to the CBP, there could be as many as 400,000 military-aged men from China here in America with more arriving every single day.
Of course, there are 100 police stations in countries around the world, including the U.S.
In the U.S., they're called aid stations and provide a connection between hundreds of thousands of illegal Chinese nationals and the Communist Party, kidnapping and returning those that turn their back on the party.
The situation at our southern border is a humanitarian economic crisis of epic proportions, but it's also a huge security risk.
The 400,000 military-aged males who have already arrived are just the tip of the iceberg as China has 34 million more men than women.
Men who desperately want a better life in America.
But where are their true loyalties?
What would happen if China decided to invade Taiwan?
Could the 400,000 Chinese nationals living outside of the law here in America be activated?
What are they capable of accomplishing?
We've seen how easy it is to sabotage our power grids, water supply, and even railroads.
So again, just astonishing numbers and...
This is from a substack called politicrepublic.substack.com.
I've been able to confirm those numbers, but they say that according to the Customs and Border Patrol, 400,000 Chinese nationals may very well be already within our borders, and that's wild.
Let's go to Matt in Denver, who wants to talk about the threat of China.
Thank you so much for calling in. Matt, you're on the air.
unidentified
Morning, Harrison. Big fan.
Thank you for all the work that you guys do.
My pleasure. A number of years ago, I think it was 60 Minutes, did a story on all these empty cities and shopping malls and all these things that were being built in China.
And I'm just speculating here and wondering what your thoughts are, because I could see the slave population that's left You know,
harrison smith
I haven't looked into them in a while, because that was a little while ago.
I mean, to me, it's just sort of reflective of What happens in every communist country?
It happened in the Soviet Union.
That was sort of behind a lot of the famine that happened in the Soviet Union is they sort of set themselves goals and their ideology is that like communism is the best.
It can achieve all the goals and so you have to fake whatever you have to to make it seem like you've achieved the goals and so you have these cities where...
They just have to build the cities, and then they can point and go, look at how many cities we've built, even if you don't need them, even if they're unusable.
I know some of these cities are being demolished.
I remember seeing that headline somewhat recently.
So they build these massive ghost cities, then they just tear them down.
And it's just like infinite work for no purpose whatsoever.
It's sort of wild stuff. But I haven't looked into it recently, so I can't give you an update on that.
unidentified
Yeah, well, that's a good update in and of itself, just the fact that they're potentially or likely tearing cities or really tearing cities down.
That might suggest something different than I have rolling around in my mind.
But that's all I've got for you guys.
harrison smith
I appreciate your time. Well, thank you so much.
And I would just say that, you know, if those ghost cities were ready to be, you know, housed with people, they probably would have done that during COVID. Because if you remember, you know, China was just building these massive COVID camps that could hold millions of people like overnight.
I would think that, you know, I don't know.
Maybe take that into account as well.
But... I don't know.
I'll have to look into that, because there have been updates recently where I have seen that they're tearing down some of those cities, but that's just off the top of my head, and I don't have anything to point to right now.
But thank you so much for the call, Matt.
Really appreciate it. Let's go to, we've got Mark in New Jersey and Kevin in New York City, both of these talking about the Trump rally.
Kevin in New York City is actually at the Trump rally, so we'll go to Mark in a second.
But Kevin, thank you for calling in.
What's going on there on the streets of New York City?
unidentified
Harrison, how are you? Can you hear me okay?
harrison smith
I hear you great. Thank you for calling in.
What's going on there? Yeah, of course.
unidentified
Glad you took my call. So we're at the park where MTG was just speaking.
We're at J6, but we're here now, and it really feels like it's infiltrated with 99% press, and then any of the Trump supporters are kind of like fake Trump supporters putting on a really weird show.
The energy is very strange.
And when, you know, I have a doctor's mask on.
I never wore a mask until today.
And they're just like, anywhere you move, they get in your face, trying to take your picture, trying to incite you, pushing cameras up in your face.
It really is a strange day over here.
harrison smith
Interesting. Well, how are you dealing with that?
I mean, if it was me, I'd be filming absolutely everything.
I don't know if you have a GoPro or something you can clip on your chest just to make sure you have the record.
But how are you dealing with it?
I mean, how big is the crowd?
Is it as big as you expected?
Bigger, smaller? What's going on in terms of crowd size?
unidentified
No, it's surprisingly small.
I'd say maybe a couple thousand.
But it doesn't feel like there's, you know, the people here are not really like the supporters of Donald Trump.
I'd say 99% of them are like pressed, fed, closed tops.
But yeah, I'm filming everything.
I just feel like they've scared off any real ground support.
And it's super easy to get in here.
It should have been impossible.
We pulled up to Chinatown, parked by Bowery, walked over two blocks, got into the park.
Marjorie Taylor Greene came.
Nobody could hear a word she said.
It's just The energy is weird, and it's very hard to get a phone signal or to get emails out.
harrison smith
Interesting. Well, I'm glad you're able to call in and tell us this.
Yeah, we'll go ahead and start showing.
We were just showing some of the footage of Margie Charlie Green making her way through the crowd there.
We'll show more footage as it comes out.
unidentified
But yeah, thank you. Harrison, if you guys want any live stream footage or anything along here, let me know.
The crew probably has my number or whatever is needed.
harrison smith
All right, well, stay on the line, Kevin, because I appreciate that, and we'll want to keep updated on this.
So if you'll stay on the line, you'll talk to my producer, and he can figure out how to coordinate that with you.
We'll go to another caller, but thank you for that call.
Is there anything else before we move on, Kevin?
Just weird atmosphere in general.
unidentified
Yeah, just a very strange atmosphere.
That's what I would say. It's disappointing.
They scared us to January 6th.
And, you know, people are afraid to come to these things to show support.
harrison smith
That is sad. Well, thank you so much for the call, and we appreciate the update.
And stay on the line for me, Kevin.
But let's go to Mark in New Jersey now.
You wonder if—well, go ahead, Mark.
You're on the air about Donald Trump's indictment today.
unidentified
Yeah, I'm kind of echoing a lot of what he just said.
You know, these things since January 6th, you know the Fed's going to be there.
It's different.
I don't know what our approach should be, because we should be protesting this en masse, and yet there is a lot of apprehension and suspicion.
harrison smith
Yeah, I mean, they don't have to censor us if we are just scared to speak out.
I mean, what do you think about the idea of just, like, literally just going, like, Gandhi, MLK route where, like, don't show up.
If you're going to show up to one of these things, be well-dressed, have your hands in the air as often as possible, and just don't give them a chance to, you know, claim that you were being violent.
And I guess it's easy for me to say, you know, even if you get attacked, don't fight back.
I mean, it is tough, man.
We'll come back from the other side and talk about it.
Welcome back, ladies and gentlemen.
Yes, it's a chaotic scene on the streets of New York City right now as two competing factions protest, one in favor and one against the indictment of Donald Trump.
Very few videos coming out right now, which that's what happens in New York City when you get these massive crowds.
I mean, just the sheer number of people overloads the cell phone systems.
I know when we've gone there for protests like the Women's March, it was almost impossible to upload anything.
Without like a dedicated line.
So there are some videos coming out.
Savannah Hernandez is posting some people bringing whistles to drown out Marjorie Taylor Greene.
She says, current scene in front of the New York criminal courthouse.
It's an absolute madhouse.
One side is holding pro-Trump protesters.
The other side holding anti-Trump.
So again, dueling protests there, and we just heard from somebody on the ground who was saying it was just a very strange atmosphere, probably very paranoid on behalf of the patriots, probably very angry and excited on behalf of the liberals.
And if you've ever been to one of these protests, you know what he means.
I remember there was nothing more stark than the comparison between just the atmosphere and the general mood of We went to D.C. three years ago, and it was the Women's March on one day, and the next day was the anti-abortion march, the pro-life march.
And the Women's March, I mean, there really is something in the air when it's all of the anger.
It's like this, like, crackling, electric, frenetic anger that's barely contained.
You can just feel it around you.
You feel like, am I about to get hit or something?
Like, the hairs on the back of your neck stand up.
And then the next day is the pro-life, and it's just, like, children running around.
And, like, men in robes leading congregations as they, like, pray and walk.
And it's just like, wow, this is beautiful.
I mean, really, you know, when you go to these things, they have a very distinct and noticeable atmosphere about them that when you're on the ground, it's hard to it's hard to explain to people that aren't there.
So I appreciated Frank Frank who was on the ground there telling us that it just feels weird.
It just feels off.
Kevin, I'm sorry, it was Kevin.
So Mark in New Jersey.
I just wanted to give you a chance to say your piece.
I mean, obviously, people are scared of this being another setup like January 6.
All it takes is one or two bad actors dressed up like Trump supporters to smear the whole congregation.
I mean, just what's your take on this, Mark?
unidentified
Bye.
harrison smith
Thank you.
unidentified
What you said is so true.
Each protest has its own personality, its own aura, and you can perceive it.
There's no question about it.
You can feel that, okay, this could be uncomfortable or there's nothing to worry about on this one.
Yeah. You know, as far as we know, the feds are going to be there and the media is going to try and twist anything they can.
You know, but still, we still have to get out there.
I mean, somebody once said that the best way to protest is not where they want you to protest.
harrison smith
Right, they seem to have set it up.
unidentified
If they say, you know, dangle a carrot out, well, we'll draw them here with this.
But if it's shifted over to where they don't want it, it's probably a better approach.
harrison smith
Yeah, yeah. I mean, but, you know, the violence could break out at any point and they'll blame whoever.
Again, I just think, like, when you go to these things, really just go like you are a follower of MLK in the 1960s, right?
We still see these images of, you know, people being attacked by dogs and sprayed by fire hoses.
Not one of them is carrying a weapon, right?
Not one of them has got a helmet on and it looks like they're going out prepared for battle.
I know I'm asking a lot of people to sort of put themselves out there and take risks like that.
But this is an information war.
This is a perception war.
And if you go armed to the teeth and wearing a flak jacket and a bulletproof vest and goggles...
You're going to look like you wanted violence, even if all that you have is protective equipment.
So I say if you do go to these, dress up nicely, look sharp.
I mean, look like you're going to be in a picture crossing the bridge at Selma with Martin Luther King Jr.
How are they going to portray you as the violent one if you're staying there with your hands up, wearing a suit, with no protective equipment?
I think that's the way to do it.
I'm sorry, we have to go to commercial break, Mark.
I do appreciate the call, though, and your input as well.
unidentified
We'll be back in one minute.
harrison smith
More of your phone calls now on the American Journal.
Still a lot more stories to cover, but we're keeping an eye on the ground in New York City as rival protests convene on the day of Trump's indictment.
I haven't seen any updates.
The Times announced, so he should have, according to the timeline, he should have just gotten to the courthouse, but I haven't seen that update.
Again, we'll keep our... Our eyes on the live broadcast and let you know what develops right now.
It just looks like a lot of chaos and nonsense.
It literally does look like there's more press than protesters out right now.
Look at those empty spaces.
Yeah, kind of pathetic.
Kind of pathetic. Huh.
Well. I mean, it's not like you're going to stop it from happening.
happening it would be nice to see more support but i think we all understand you know the risk that people don't want to take by going out there let's go back out to the phone calls here who's been on the longest let's go to um long john or i'm sorry john from long island rather uh john from long island thank you for calling in you're on the air about trump's indictment hello hello hello Hey, what's going on?
unidentified
Wow, this is the first time I've been listening for a long time, man.
Like, I got into the whole conspiracy world From Alex Jones.
And this is in my early teen age years.
I'm 32 now.
And I've been a New York City electrician for the better part of my adult life.
harrison smith
Oh, fantastic, man. Thanks so much for coming in.
What's your take on this? Yeah, man.
unidentified
I have a completely opposite take on it.
I really think that it's all smokescreen.
Not even just this indictment, but the whole...
Since 2016, the whole rush of this, it's leading up to this event and to stir the pot, so to speak.
To stir the pot and keep people's attention into this.
When really, in actuality, what's going on in the world, we have the CBDCs, we got the inflation, we have The wars, the unjust wars, obviously, and it's just nonstop.
And people's, you know, perceptions are in the wrong place, I believe.
And I backed Trump.
I went against my family.
But once the COVID came around and I saw what happened with him, I had to get away, man.
And it's sad that people, you know, still support someone like that, man.
You know, Pfizer. We're good to go.
The $1.16 billion to Bill Gates' organization, Gary, making the world's largest private donor to that WHO. The PREPS Act, which gave indefinite liability, immunity to all the big pharma companies, I believe Trump signed the PREPS Act.
Trump signed the CARES Act, which gave state governors the unprecedented ability to shut down the individual state economies indefinitely and at will.
So while everybody thinks, oh, the Democrats here!
The governor's here! It all stems back from the executive branch in a certain way.
The National Declaration of a State of Emergency in conjunction with the CARES Act, the CDC Federal Executive Authority over the government, the red flag gun laws, Remember that?
Take the guns and do the due process later, which is pretty idiotic to even say that, the bump stocks.
The NDAA allowing American citizens to be arrested without charge or trial and held indefinitely as prisoners of war.
Which is the reason his supporters are still currently being held with the whole January 6th setup that went down.
harrison smith
I don't think that has to do with the...
I actually have a story about that here.
I don't think that has to do with the NDA, but I get your point for sure, and I've heard a lot of these objections to Trump before, but do you think that he was a...
That he was a fraud from the beginning, or do you think that he was turned at some point?
unidentified
I believe in my wholehearted, when you dig through all the psyops and everything, he was just put in a place to pacify, pretty much make the biggest demographic of this country of people that should have never went with any of this craziness from the get-go.
And that's... That's how I feel about it.
harrison smith
But wouldn't we even stuck with Jeb Bush anyway?
I mean, if you don't have Donald Trump, it's not like they were preventing something with Donald Trump.
If it hadn't been Donald Trump, it would have been Jeb Bush, and we would have lost, and Hillary would have won, and we would have had a Ukraine war earlier than now.
We would probably be at open war with Syria and maybe Iran right now.
You know, in terms of the big picture stuff, didn't Trump...
I mean, wasn't Trump's presidency at least like a four-year pause in their operations where he didn't start any new wars?
He wound down the wars that we were involved in.
He tried to get out of Afghanistan, but that was delayed and then bungled by Biden.
I mean, in a zoomed out, like, you know, big picture view...
You don't think Trump had a lot of success against the deep state?
I mean, I can't give them so much credit to think they orchestrated all of that.
I really think that his opposition to the deep state was real, was legitimate, was an actual threat, and the attacks against him are ongoing.
I mean, I don't know. I can't see it all as a fabrication.
unidentified
If they brought up charges for him and associated with all of the vaccine fraud that went down, how many people would stand up and support him then?
I'd stand up and support that.
I would stand up and support him being indicted and all the other long lists.
harrison smith
But that's another, I mean, at the time, don't you remember him more or less doing everything he could to not shut down the government?
He tried to overrule Fauci and Birx, but I mean, he's dealing with an entrenched bureaucratic system.
I mean, do you really think he could have, like, not issued an emergency for COVID?
Like, I don't even think that was a possibility.
He had to do something, didn't he?
I mean, he couldn't just ignore it and pretend it wasn't happening.
unidentified
Well, you know, at that point, you know, I mean, that just goes to show you the institutions that yield the levers of power in this country.
harrison smith
Well, exactly.
unidentified
But that's just a figurehead there.
The foreign policy, the fiscal policy will never change nor be addressed in this country.
It's all down to the trivial, mindless things like what kind of gender do you want to be?
And it really...
It's sad, man.
I know, it's a mess. It's a total mess.
And not for nothing, but just even though...
We have seen over the last few election cycles exactly how the functionality of the integrity of the...
You don't even know what you cast a vote for.
In my opinion...
It's so far gone.
Even if you look back from the days of Abraham Lincoln, they were rigging elections then.
harrison smith
And it's only gotten worse.
I know you're probably expressing stuff that a lot of our listeners think, and I appreciate your input.
And certainly there are some points there to be made.
I just think that when you...
Retrospective, or what's the word?
When you look back, your vision's always 2020, right?
When you look back, we know that these things that Trump did were a mistake at the time.
I don't think everybody recognized that that was a mistake, and I think you've got to give the guy a benefit of the doubt, and I think when you look at the way that they've attacked him really viciously, I mean, it's just, it's not the type of thing that the deep state does.
I mean, they would much rather have not had the whole Trump revolution that took place.
He really was a revolutionary figure in a way that DeSantis will never be and that Jeb Bush certainly wouldn't have been.
And I think what we're seeing now is just a continuation of their attacks on Trump and, you know, which are really attacks on us and our ability to elect people from outside of their system.
But yeah, I think, I mean, my big takeaway from the Trump presidency was like, oh, wow, this is a much bigger problem than we thought.
Even if you get the president in there, I mean, it barely changes anything.
The entrenched interests are so thoroughly embedded in our government, and it's been going on for decades.
You're not going to undo it with a single administration.
It was a good start, but they engaged the counterattack, and that's what we're dealing with now.
Thank you for the call, John. I do appreciate it.
We're going to go to more calls on the other side, and we're going to continue to look at videos.
We just saw Marjorie Taylor Greene, I believe saying with Gavin Wax, I believe is his name, and I think I saw Jack Posobiec there.
She was giving a speech, but they're saying you couldn't hear it.
That may be because there are leftist groups handing out whistles to drown her out.
Savannah Hernandez reported that.
She's on the scene as well. We'll return to these images on the other side.
Don't go anywhere. New York are looking insane right now as, as I understand it, Trump is still, they still await Trump and his arrival at the Manhattan Criminal Courthouse.
Marjorie Taylor Greene was there giving a speech with a bullhorn, but she was drowned out by yelling.
We're showing you images that are being broadcast right now.
However, you know, I think when you have that many people in one place, it tends to clog up the phone lines, the internet line.
So we're bringing you whatever we get as we get it.
And it does look crazy in certain places.
Other places, just the press milling around.
And we've heard from callers that are on the ground there saying it's just a strange atmosphere right now.
We're going to go out to more of your calls in just a moment.
I do want to spend a second covering this.
Attorney General Garland doesn't commit to investigating alleged violations of January 6th defendants' civil rights.
Attorney General Merrick Garland looks on, or I'm sorry, has declined a lawmaker's call for the Department of Justice to investigate alleged violations of the right to a speedy trial for defendants facing charges for their actions at the U.S. Capitol on January 6th, 2021.
Representative Andrew Clyde asked Garland about the Sixth Amendment trial rights of various January 6th defendants during a House Appropriations Subcommittee hearing on Wednesday.
During the hearing, Clyde noted that he toured the D.C. Department of Corrections last week and met with several defendants still to this day in pretrial detainment over charges they face due to their actions on January 6th, 2021.
Some of these charges are as minor as trespassing.
And Merrick Garland's reaction to this is, no, it's fine.
No, it's fine. And there has been no violation.
I'm so sure there hasn't been a violation.
I'm not even going to investigate it.
We're not even going to look into whether it's a violation because we say it's not.
Being kept in despicable conditions in prison for two years on a minor trespassing charge is just fine.
This is the type of chutzpah these people have, the temerity of these people.
It's just like, yeah, no, it's fine.
It's good. It's good, yeah, you have a constitutional right to a speedy trial, but like...
So you also have a constitutional right to protest the government, but now you're in prison.
So how valuable is this little Bill of Rights of yours when nobody enforces it and we're allowed to ignore it with impunity?
That's the message. Just wild.
Just wild and horrific stuff and explains why people are afraid to go out and protest now.
They'll violate your Fifth Amendment.
They'll violate your Sixth Amendment.
And they'll get you so scared that you abandon your First Amendment.
That's the whole point of this.
So we go out again to your phone calls.
Let's... I'm just seeing who's been on the longest.
It looks like Dave in Ohio.
Thank you for calling in, Dave.
You're on the air. Thank you for calling in.
Dave from Ohio? Coast Guard?
You there? Okay.
Let's go to Ed from Pennsylvania.
Ed from PA. Thank you for calling in.
You're on the air. That's a question.
unidentified
I was in the Coast Guard.
Oh, all right. But, hey, we've got to stop calling up the swamp.
Swamps have frogs and turtles and beautiful birds.
It's a sewer with turds and rats, you know?
harrison smith
You're right. I'm from Houston.
Houston is a swamp. I love the swamp.
Nothing like a good, humid swamp.
I think you're right on that.
Although it is literally, I mean, D.C. is literally a swamp, so there is that.
unidentified
Yeah, the ground there, they build it on a swamp.
Yeah. People go to protest.
Alex sells them beautiful little Faraday bags.
You put your phone in there, that's how they know who you are, you stupid phone, you know?
harrison smith
Yeah, they definitely have, you know, Stingray capture devices, you know, keeping track of everybody.
But at the same time, you want to have an ability to film and upload things.
So, and again, it's like, we still have the First Amendment.
As long as you want, as long as you insist on your First Amendment, we still have it.
So, you know, don't commit violence.
And, you know, they can illegally detain you or whatever.
But I don't think you should be scared to go out and put yourself out there and say...
You know, here's what I believe.
I mean, we have the First Amendment.
It's sort of terrifying to me that they have scared us out of expressing our First Amendment.
It's something that we have to insist upon.
They're not going to grant us, you know, they're not going to, like, hold our hand while this happens.
unidentified
You can buy a beautiful video camera now, really cheap at Walmart.
You know, put your phone in the bag.
And I'll tell you, the best week of my life was when I went to Chantilly.
I met Alex down there.
I drove Jim Tucker around for a week.
And it was better than deep sea fishing.
It was the Bilderberg down there, the first one, Chantilly, Virginia.
It was the best week.
It's so much fun meeting so many great people who are on the same page, you know?
harrison smith
Exactly. No, that's exactly it.
I mean, there's so many purposes for these gatherings.
One is to, you know, let people know that there's more than one of us, right?
To let people know you're not alone.
There are millions of people out there that feel just like you do.
And you get to meet up with them and meet them and be reinvigorated in your...
You know, political views and go, oh right, this is not a hopeless cause.
I'm not black-pilled. I'm surrounded by patriots and just imagine what we could accomplish.
I mean, yeah, I think it's an incredibly valuable thing to go out and protest and I really don't like that they are scaring us out of it.
So, thanks so much for the call, Ed.
I do appreciate it. Here we're seeing video that was just recently uploaded.
That's Gavin Wax in the middle.
It looks like Jack Posobiec on the left.
Yeah, he's got a haircut.
And I know the guy on the right. I'm blanking on his name right now.
He's the head of the New York Young Republicans, I think.
His name starts with a V, and I'm totally blanking on it.
But yeah, some great MAGA supporters there.
They're giving a speech. We're not showing you the audio because the leftists are drowning out the speeches with whistles.
So unless you want to hear just mindless demonic screeching...
We're not going to bring the audio up, but at least gives you a good view of some of the personalities that have made their way there and are supporting President Trump and, you know, showing support for law and order in this country.
Let's go to one more call for the end here.
Let's go to Hollywood Dave in Hollywood.
So across the country from New York City.
Thank you for calling in, Hollywood Dave.
unidentified
You're on the air. This is Hollywood Dave calling from the Communist Occupied Hollywood Mind Control Center.
I'd like to say that I didn't call in before to speak with Alex.
I spoke before the election and said that the Democrats would fail the election and that they would do everything that we did never think they would do.
harrison smith
Well, you were right about that.
unidentified
So what's the solution, Hollywood Dave?
The solution is that Martin Luther King was the 1960s.
This is 2023. My point is this.
They will not respect us.
They will not do anything legally.
These are hardcore communists undermining control, being controlled by the global elite.
The global elite, of course, as we all know, are the pedophiles and the international bankers and so forth.
There is no way out of this.
To the Alex Jones listeners, you are in jail right now.
You are being violated.
You are being raped. There is only one way to deal with a rapist.
I'm waiting for the shot heard around the world.
I'm waiting. Hollywood Dave is trapped in communist mind-controlled California.
These people are rich.
These people have power.
These people do not care about you or what you think.
They are hardcore militant communists.
harrison smith
I mean, you know, I agree with you to a certain point in Hollywood Day.
We've got to go to break here.
But reject the black pill, man.
Maybe you need to get out of California.
Maybe Hollywood's not the place for you, man.
Maybe go to Montana and, you know, do some ranching or something because I'm not doomed.
I've got a great family and I'm going to live a long time.
Alright, ladies and gentlemen, welcome back.
We are keeping an eye on the goings-on there in New York City.
The original timeline was that Donald Trump was supposed to be arriving at the courthouse at 10, I believe it was 10.30 a.m.
Eastern Time. Would have been about an hour ago, but now the latest update is that he is expected in front of the judge at 2 o'clock p.m.
Right now, it looks like the The dueling protest going on there with the pro-Trump and anti-Trump contingents.
It's getting a little bit wild.
I wonder if it will continue to grow throughout the day as more and more people arrive and as we get closer to the moment that Donald Trump enters into history as the first American president, former American president, indicted, fingerprinted, and potentially getting his mugshot taken for a crime.
Really a... The end of the Republic.
The bells are chiming.
The funeral bells are ringing for the Republic as we speak.
Because again, this wasn't some major...
I mean, even if you look back at something like Richard Nixon and him quitting the presidency before he could be impeached, A lot of that was not sort of what they portray it as in and of itself but it was at least like That was a real scandal.
You had real scandals back then.
When men were men, women were women, scandals were really pretty crazy, right?
You had like this break-in and then, you know, discovery through the receipts of things that the people bought.
I mean, if you look at the Watergate scandal, I mean, it really was like First it was just these thieves, and they were like, what is this?
We don't know what these guys were doing.
And then they found receipts from the guys of purchases they'd made or requesting to be reimbursed by this shady organization.
They look into the shady organization, and they realize it's a front for the Republican Party.
And then they look into the Republican Party, and Nixon comes out and says, I have no idea about this.
This was totally new to me.
I have nothing to do with it. And then they find tapes.
They find... Audio tapes that show that not only did he know about it, he was coordinating it and lying to the American people.
And it was like this spiral, kind of like snowball rolling down the hill, true scandal.
Completely different than what we're looking at here.
I mean, what we're looking at here is at the very worst, as far as I can tell, unless they come up with some sort of crazy charge, which apparently they have to, because to upgrade these charges from misdemeanors to felonies, it's like, well, you mislabeled a political...
Payment. That's a misdemeanor.
But if you mislabel the political payment in order to cover up a crime, then you can elevate it to a felony.
So there may be accusations here that we don't know about.
But Trump seems pretty confident moving into all of this.
He seems to believe that he'll be able to go in and represent himself and get a fair trial.
I don't think that's the case, but we'll see how all this plays out.
But again, just to really look at this in an unbiased way, it is the most petty and minor little incursion of the law that they are really blowing up into a historic event totally without basis.
It really is something incredible.
So let's go out to your phone calls here.
Let's go to Rusty in Robert County.
Rusty, thanks for calling in.
I'm sorry? Boebert County.
I'm sorry. Rusty in Boebert County.
Thanks for calling in, Rusty. Oh, yeah.
unidentified
Thanks for having me.
First, I want to say to everybody out there, if you haven't gotten involved, go to infowarsstore.com and get the things you need at a great price.
I just got in the mail two of the Alex Jones for President t-shirts.
harrison smith
Those are cool. Oh yeah, they are.
unidentified
And I tell you what, if you guys had some high-quality Mushu catnip, I'd probably just buy it all.
harrison smith
Straight from China? Yeah, thank you for that.
And again, it's another thing about going to these protests.
Every protest you go to, every Trump rally you go to, you are going to see almost half the people there are wearing Infowars shirts.
A quarter of the people there got Infowars hats or flags.
So you can have your own little mini rally just by wearing an Infowars t-shirt out in public just to let people know who you are and to connect with other fellow patriots.
Infowarsstore.com. Thank you for that little plug there, Rusty, but I don't think that's what you called in about.
What are your thoughts about people getting involved?
unidentified
At a local level, these Soros DAs and judges, even sheriffs that don't align with core patriotic American values, vote them out.
Pay attention. I mean, these judges particularly, you can go onto their website, their government website, and see their performance reviews.
Well, a lot of that is not correct.
A lot of that information isn't correct.
You have to find the topic, look it up for yourself, and determine if these people are worthy of your vote.
Besides looking at DAs, judges, and sheriffs, everybody should feel empowered to go volunteer for a precinct seat.
Or, you know, try to get your friends and family into key positions, you know, like assessor's office, the city council.
The assessor's office is a big one.
My wife works for the assessor's office here, and this year they found 200 permits that were listing the property value over 50%.
Higher than what they should be.
So they had to do all those audits, redo them all.
harrison smith
You know, you're exactly right, man.
You really can have a big outsized influence in a community or a small town and just even getting your foot in the door, going rubbing elbows with these people.
I mean, you know, these politicians, they're looking for supporters.
They're looking for even people just to like walk the block and flyer for them.
That's why we reject the black pill.
Because if everybody rejects it, it's a self-fulfilling prophecy.
If everybody goes, ah, it's hopeless, we'll never achieve anything, then you're never going to achieve anything.
But if you go out and actually find good candidates that want to do things, even if they aren't up to date on the World Economic Forum and the bigger picture, they don't have to be perfect.
But especially if it's a smaller level politician, if it's a city or state or local or county politician, and you start volunteering for them and start going out to dinner with them and start talking to them and help them to understand the bigger picture and the part they play in it, I mean, you really can have a major influence.
I think that is a great message, Rusty.
And again, we reject the black pill on nothing more than the basis that taking the black pill is a poison pill.
If you accept, and if people don't know what I mean by that, right, the black pill is the opposite.
There's the red pill where you're awake, the blue pill where you're asleep, the white pill where you're hopeful, and the black pill where you're hopeless.
Don't be hopeless. If you're hopeless, then hope is gone.
You have to insist on hope, and it will come to fruition.
I really do believe that, and I thank you for your call, Rusty.
Let's go to Joe in New Jersey.
Thank you for calling in, Joe.
You are on the air.
unidentified
Harrison, Harrison, Harrison, the fourth industrial revolution is all of us, and resistance is all futile.
Once we put the microchip inside the bug, and then we make you eat the bug, the nanotechnology will disperse into the bloodstream and penetrate the blood-brain barrier, making you a slave.
And you will own the nothing, live in the metal earth.
Don't be there.
harrison smith
You know, it's really kind of depressing how accurate that impression was.
I mean, that wasn't even that far off the mark.
He literally says stuff like that.
unidentified
I'd like to welcome you to this Davos meeting where I will tell you how to be the slave.
Clap, clap, clap, clap, clap, clap, clap.
Yes, Klaus Schwab, thank you.
harrison smith
That's something else. I mean, we really are living in a dystopian world, man.
They aren't even, you know, they don't even try to cover it up.
They literally have these foreign-sounding, bald, Dr.
Evil scumbags telling us to eat bugs.
It is ridiculous. We've got to go to commercial break.
Thank you for that call, Dr.
Schwab. But I do want to cover this story just for the last seconds.
From 4chan to international politics, a bug-eating conspiracy theory goes mainstream.
That's right, folks. NPR is here to tell you, nobody ever said to eat bugs.
Eat bugs, what are you talking about?
That's a conspiracy theory.
Nobody ever said eat bugs.
Just in case you thought clown world couldn't get any stupider.
As we speak, ladies and gentlemen, the crowd is growing and it seems to be getting more chaotic on the streets of New York City.
As Trump is set to be arraigned in just a few hours.
Gotta wonder if Trump's just watching all of this from his golden penthouse in the sky, watching the insanity go down.
Sven Hernandez is on the ground.
And Jack Persobik is on the ground.
Some reporters from OAN, we're keeping our eyes on all of these feeds and showing you the videos as they come up.
Most of the videos, the audio is just shrieking madness.
We're not showing you the audio, but we are showing you the video.
There's Evan Hernandez saying, live from NYC with the Biden-supporting woman who keeps screaming F white people.
She's still blocking the entrance that police have sectioned off for Trump supporters outside of the NYC criminal court.
I mean, I'm not... I showed too much of this woman.
I mean, she's completely insane.
Completely insane. If you're a radio viewer, you gotta go to Bandai Video.
Yeah, it's out of white chicks, but like...
unidentified
I don't know.
harrison smith
There's some mental illness on display here.
It's like this is the soul of the Democrats, right?
The Democrats put on this image of respectability.
You can think of like... Alejandro Mayorkas and Joe Biden, respectable old men walking around.
Like, underneath that facade is just this, like, frazzled hair, like, makeup smeared all over her face, covered in, like, white paint, boobs hanging out, just, like, flailing and twerking and just, like, screeching.
This is the soul of the Democratic Party.
This is what lies behind the facade of respectability, is this satanic madness just reverberating just under the surface.
I mean, you know, compared to like the perception in the media where like the Donald Trump supporter is some like racist redneck guy and really behind that is just like a dude like me.
It's just like I'm just like a family man and I'm just like tired of having my country destroyed from me actually, please.
Like this is the... I'm the soul of the Trump supporter and conservative party that gets, you know, portrayed as being behind this facade of Like, I don't know, the cartoons they draw, right?
They never actually have images of the insane Trump people.
They'll just, like, reuse one image from Charlottesville for all of time to try to portray us as, like, white supremacists or something.
But every time you go out with the leftists, you get that.
You get that shrieking goblin creature twerking and flailing and assaulting you.
And that is the heart of darkness of the liberal Democrat Party.
Members of the press assaulting somebody standing outside of the Manhattan courthouse.
Apparently the press is just being insane in New York these days.
We keep seeing stories about this where it's like protesters standing around and the press is like, this is press area!
And just start like grabbing people and shoving them to the side.
There's a little bit of violence taking place.
Again, who do you think is on the...
Can we pause this video real quick?
Let's just pause it. Let's just see this image that we're looking at.
On one side, you got a black woman on the left...
She seems well-dressed.
She's got a shirt that says, don't tread on me.
This is the Trump supporter. I don't have to know anything about them.
You look at them for one second, and you can see exactly who's good and who's bad.
You can see exactly who's on the right side, who's on the wrong side.
Doesn't matter your race, your color, your creed.
Doesn't matter any of that. Are you a good person?
Are you a decent person? Are you respectable?
Are you just like somebody you'd want to have watch your kids or go out to dinner with like the woman on the left?
I've seen her in five seconds in my life.
The five seconds you just saw, I just saw, and I already know that she's a good person and a decent, respectable person.
She's wearing the Don't Trot On Me shirt.
She's got a hat. It looks a little bit like a Make America Great Again hat, but I can't read it exactly.
But clearly she's, you know, looks completely normal.
Meanwhile, on the right, you have some sort of gimp-masked mime, some sort of clown demon-masked Psycho clown demon wearing a nun outfit getting in her face and assaulting her.
unidentified
I mean... Yeah, yeah.
harrison smith
Think Slipknot. Think Slipknot, but with like a pink hat on.
They're the NYPD actually taking some of this seriously.
And yeah, so there you see.
I don't know. I'm not a big fan of blowing air horns in people's faces either, but...
It's better than physically assaulting someone, which is what the psycho clown is doing.
Yeah, this is it, folks.
This is the division. This is America 2020, is respectful, decent, kind people on one side, and psycho demon Satan clowns in nun outfits on the other.
And so that's the press attacking one of the protesters.
So again, these are all just, all of this footage is breaking.
Where it's just wild.
It's just absolute cacophony and madness on the streets of New York right now as one side of our political duopoly attempts to fabricate and imagine charges to bring up a former president.
Wild stuff. Out to your phone calls once again.
Travis in New Hampshire, you have a story that I hadn't heard about yet.
Thank you for calling in. Travis in New Hampshire, you're on the air.
What do you have for us today?
unidentified
Yes, sir. So, up in New Hampshire, just hit the news, I think, last night or this morning, that a Keene State College student, he was like a 23-year-old kid, I guess he made a phone call to Matt Gaetz's office,
and he left a voicemail threatening he was going to kill him or shoot him, supposedly, because No, if you keep giving the trans and gay people a hard time, I'm going to come kill you or something along those lines.
But it just kind of hit.
It's just something I wanted everyone to keep an eye on because obviously the two-tier justice system here, they'll probably get a little slap on the wrist.
Meanwhile, we still have grandmother sitting in jail in D.C. for going into the Capitol building.
harrison smith
But... More and more are being arrested.
I mean, the latest announcements have been that there are thousands more Trump supporters yet to be arrested on...
At this point, two-year-old charges for taking an unapproved tour through the U.S. Capitol.
I'm finding it here. It's the Keene State College student facing charges.
He threatened to kill a member of Congress.
Alan Poehler faces a federal charge of threat in an interstate communication.
He had no comment. He said he was intoxicated and didn't really mean to hurt anybody.
We will kill you if that's what it takes.
I will take a bullet to your blank head if you blank with my rights anymore.
So, yeah. Yeah, because Matt Gaetz is a big tyrant, right?
Matt Gaetz is a big hateful dude.
Like, they don't have anybody. They don't have anybody.
The people on the right, like, the big problem with people on the right is half of them are too nice.
Like, they're too soft.
They're too, like, polite to our enemies.
And yet our enemies just treat them like they are Hitler reincarnate.
And all of the mental illness is being exacerbated by the stochastic terrorism of the media and the political class.
I hadn't seen this, so thank you for telling us about it, Travis.
unidentified
Thank you, guys. The best part, too, was his lawyer's comment on it, about how my client nodded into protests or violence and that he wants to respect the investigation process and didn't want to comment on anything.
harrison smith
Yeah, yeah, I'm sure.
I'm sure. And, you know, this isn't the first time in notes in this article from WMUR.com.
A California man was sentenced to home confinement and fined $10,000 after pleading guilty to leaving Gates a threatening message, voicemail message in the days after January 6th.
Yeah, so thank you for telling us about that.
Again, just the psychopathy of the left is really something to behold.
And it would be very nice if we lived in a world where we had to look for this stuff, where we had to try to figure out how the left does, right?
Because all the left does, their whole purpose now is to take very normal things that normal people say.
They take a Matt Gaetz speech.
They take a Michael Knowles speech.
They take a Jim Jordan speech.
And then they decode it, right?
They have to tell you that the words that they're saying are actually not what they're meaning.
And they have to look into and figure out when somebody says, I believe in free speech, really that means they're Nazis and they want to do the Holocaust again.
Like they have to decode it, by which they mean read into it things that aren't there.
Like wouldn't it be nice if that was our situation?
Instead, we're just like, let's check up what's going on in New York City.
Oh, it looks like a naked clown person is attacking an innocent woman.
Like, that's just, it's just happening.
We don't have to look at all. We aren't looking.
It just is in our face all of the time.
The absolute schizophrenic madness of the left is unrelenting, folks.
And we'll keep an eye on it.
I'm sure Alex and Owen will keep an eye on it.
And I do hope the crowd grows.
I do hope more people make it down there.
I hope it's peaceful. I hope it remains as sane as possible for the people on the right.
Just if you're going to go down, don't give them an excuse, folks.
Don't give them an excuse to call you a terrorist or a violent protester.
Hands in the air. Keep filming.
Stay peaceful. Stay happy.
Remember the number one decision factor In a war is the morale.
So keep your morale up. Keep fighting back and be joyful warriors.
That's going to do it for us here at American Journal.
Thanks so much for being with us.
