And joining us now is CBS News senior investigative correspondent Katherine Herich. | |
Catherine, thanks for being here today. | ||
Of course. You are at the courthouse today. | ||
What can we expect tomorrow? | ||
Legal experts have told CBS News that the California tax case is a very serious prosecution. | ||
It's nine charges, six misdemeanors, failure to file, failure to pay, and then these three felony charges that include allegations of tax evasion. | ||
A judge in the District of Columbia is ordering Katherine Herridge to participate in a deposition. | ||
It's regarding a confidential source she used in a series of stories when she worked at Fox News in 2017. | ||
It says a lot about our fading republic when Congress has to hold a hearing where journalists testify on protecting their First Amendment sources. | ||

|
In the words of seasoned, award-winning journalist Katherine Herridge, When the network of Walter Cronkite seizes your reporting files, including confidential source information, that is an attack on investigative journalism. | |
Yes, it sure is. | ||
unidentified
|
It seems to me there's a pattern developing here. | |
Failing upwards is the way this CIA institutionalized and government-funded Mockingbird Media propagandized system operates. | ||

|
In an article related to your case, the Washington Post reported how in 2005, five national reporters were held in contempt and levied fines of $500 per day. | |
And in 2008, a USA Today reporter was held in contempt and faced daily fines of $5,000. | ||
All of these instances where reporters upheld their journalistic integrity and protected their sources to ensure good reporting for the American people. | ||
Only to face rebuke and heavy-handed enforcement by the courts, which are intended to protect the First Amendment. | ||
Ms. Herridge, how fundamental to reporting is the protection of your sources? | ||
I'm facing contempt fines because I am upholding the most basic principle of journalism. | ||
If you cannot offer a source a promise of confidentiality as a journalist, your toolbox is empty. | ||
No whistleblowers coming forward. | ||
No government official with evidence of misconduct or corruption. | ||
And what that means is that it interrupts the free flow of information to the public. | ||
And as we've all recognized, journalism is about an informed electorate, which is the bedrock of our democracy. | ||
If signed into law, the Press Act would establish the first federal press shield law in United States history and will significantly strengthen press freedom by safeguarding journalists and their confidential sources. | ||
The Press Act creates a federal statutory privilege to shield journalists from being compelled to reveal their confidential sources and prevents federal law enforcement agencies from abusing subpoena power to access journalist email and phone records. | ||
This long overdue legislation represents a significant leap forward, not just for journalists, but for the sanctity of journalism itself and for the constitutional right to freedom of the press. | ||
Countless news stories that I broke or facets of them could not have been reported without sources whose identities needed to be protected. | ||
To name just a few, Enron, BP oil spill, TARP bank bailout, follow the money investigations on taxpayers spending, congressional oversight, congressional fundraising, prescription drug and vaccine dangers, Haiti earthquake aid, K Street lobbying, green energy failures, waste and fraud at the Red Cross, Firestone tires, Benghazi, and Fast and Furious. | ||
The last 12 stories I mentioned, thanks to some information provided by sources who could not be quoted by name, received recognition from the Emmy Awards. | ||
Multiply that by thousands of reporters and countless stories and it's fair to argue that a lot of important facts would never have been exposed if journalists couldn't ensure protection of our sensitive sources' identities. | ||
In order to protect honest journalists from the power-mad CIA tyranny of a demoralized and corrupted executive branch, we as a nation must hold these truths that Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion or prohibiting the free exercise thereof or abridging the freedom of speech or of the press or the right of the people peaceably to assemble and to petition the government For a redress of grievances. | ||

And that's the way it is. | |

It's Wednesday, April 17th in the year of our Lord, 2024. | |
And you're listening to The American Journal with your host, Harrison Smith. | ||
Watch it live right now at band.video. | ||
Jumping the gun here. Good morning, ladies and gentlemen. | ||
Welcome to The American Journal. I'm your host, Harrison Smith. | ||
A little impatient to get to today's show. | ||
We've got a big one for you. | ||
We'll be joined by Savannah Hernandez live from the streets of New York City. | ||
At 10 a.m. today, talk to her about the goings on there. | ||
And of course, what's going on there is a variety of different topics about, you know, a variety of different occasions relating to the downfall of America, the migrant crisis, the Trump trial, the crime wave explosion, New York City. It's the place to be if you want to experience the downfall of an empire. | ||
So very excited to talk to her. We've got a lot of videos to go to where we'll be covering the Trump hush money. | ||
It's not even really a hush money trial, but we'll be covering the criminal trial in its entirety, as well as a number of other major stories from around the nation. | ||
Stay tuned, folks. Going to be a big show, and we'll open up the phone lines for your calls in the second hour. | ||
But let's begin today, as we do every day, with our Daily Dispatch. | ||
Here it is, folks, your Daily Dispatch for Wednesday, the 17th of April, 2024. | ||
First on the docket is that Trump trial. | ||
Day two of Trump's criminal hush money trial has taken place. | ||
Lawyers chose seven jurors to help decide the case against the former president who was accused of falsifying business records to cover up a sexual scandal involving a porn star. | ||
It sounds sordid and lurid and lewd. | ||
It's really not, though. | ||
And we'll get into that here just on the other side of the Daily Dispatch. | ||
We'll talk about the jurors that were chosen, how they were chosen, how the whole trial is rigged from the beginning. | ||
It really is... Depressing. | ||
Meanwhile, Brussels' ban on conservative conference featuring Farage overturned after totalitarian attempt to cancel right-wing voices. | ||
So apparently there was a... | ||
Conservative conference in Brussels that devolved into chaos yesterday when police took the stage while Farage and others were speaking and attempted to shut it down. | ||
Again, we'll get into exactly what happened there, but suffice it to say that there's a worldwide, or perhaps I should just say western-wide attempt to use force to silence political opposition. | ||
As we... | ||
Irrevocably and obviously move away from the democratic ideals espoused by the warmongers in charge in Brussels and D.C. and elsewhere and towards full-scale totalitarianism in which even the slightest dissent will be considered criminal while actual criminal offenses will be treated as little mistakes that require love and care and Endless patience. | ||
See, I will show you videos from that and talk about what exactly happened there. | ||
Meanwhile, Dubai Airport closed, buildings damaged as UAE flooded by heavy rains. | ||
Oh, they changed the headline on me. | ||
This happens sometimes. It's very mysterious. | ||
Sometimes you hit print, and in between looking at the story that you're printing and it coming out of the printer, the headline changes mysteriously. | ||
Isn't that interesting? No, the original headline said Dubai grinds to standstill as cloud seeding worsens flooding. | ||
Yeah, this is about weather manipulation, weather engineering, geoengineering and the massive unintended consequences of fiddling with the closed system known as the environment, weather itself. | ||
Torrential rains across the United Arab Emirates prompted flight cancellations, forced schools to shut down and brought traffic to a standstill, and they were caused by cloud-seeding operations. | ||
Which is, I've said it before, if you aren't paying attention to geoengineering, if you aren't paying attention to chemtrails and cloud seeding and blocking out the sun by shooting aluminum into the atmosphere, then you have no place to speak on climate change at all. | ||
Chemtrail deniers are the flat earthers of climate change. | ||
Wrap your head around that one. Meanwhile, It's looking increasingly grim that Ukraine will ever be able to push Russia out of its territory. | ||
Increasingly so, which is... | ||
Really just, it's talking about the illusion. | ||
The illusion is becoming increasingly hard to maintain, is what they mean, because Ukraine's chances of pushing Russia out have always been zero and cannot get any lower. | ||
They cannot decrease any more than from the first moment that Russia decided to launch its invasion. | ||
It's just that for the last two years, we have been force fed the delusional lie that they ever had a chance. | ||
And now that's becoming increasingly difficult for them to maintain that lie. | ||
That's the translation there from MSM speak to regular human talk. | ||
And finally, U.S. Supreme Court leans towards January 6th rioter and obstruction case with Trump implications. | ||
Conservative U.S. Supreme Court justices on Tuesday signaled skepticism towards an obstruction charge brought by the Justice Department against a Pennsylvania man in the 2021 Capitol attack. | ||
A case with possible implications for the persecution of a prosecution, well, either really, of Donald Trump for trying to overturn his 2020 election loss. | ||
The justices heard arguments in the Joseph Fisher appeal of a lower court's ruling rejecting his attempt to escape a federal charge of corruptly obstructing an official proceeding, the congressional certification of President Joe Biden's victory over Trump that the rioters sought to prevent on January 6th, 2021. | ||
Oh, how wrong everything in that paragraph is, actually. | ||
and It's just very strange. | ||
It's very strange concerning the fact that the entire point of gathering at the Capitol on January 6th was to encourage Republicans to participate in the proceedings. | ||
The whole point of meeting on January 6th for the Congress was to determine whether or not to certify the election. | ||
They keep sort of forgetting that point that they meet on January 6th to certify or not certify the election. | ||
It's not just a rubber stamp. | ||
They actually had the chance to ask questions about the legality and reality of the election. | ||
And that's what people were gathered to encourage them to do, to object to the obviously falsified results of the 2020 election. | ||
Thank you. | ||
Interrupting that process was never the plan. | ||
That's ridiculous. | ||
It's literally completely contrary to the entire point of going there. | ||
Never a plan to interrupt the proceedings. | ||
Proceedings is what we were relying on to save this country. | ||
It was when police started firing tear gas into a peaceful crowd that things got out of control and the proceedings were stopped. | ||
I would blame the police for that. | ||
That's it. | ||
That's your daily dispatch. | ||

Let's talk about the Trump trial, shall we? | ||
Shall we talk about the Trump trial? | ||
A story from New York Times, day two of the Trump criminal hush money trial. | ||
Key takeaways here, lawyers chose seven jurors to help decide the case against the former president, who's accused of falsifying business records to cover up a sexual assault scandal involving a porn star. | ||
Now, just to give you the layout here, the general terrain that we're working on, I want to... | ||
First try to explain what exactly he's being charged with, why it makes no sense, and why these seemingly sordid details of this are not quite as sordid as you might originally be led to believe. | ||
To call this a hush money trial I don't think is exactly accurate. | ||
After all, that sort of implies that he did something wrong, that he was hushing up with money. | ||
Him sleeping with a porn star is not criminal. | ||
Him paying a porn star not to go public with the details of the affair also not criminal. | ||
The only thing that would be criminal in this The money used to pay the extortionist, because that's what happened. | ||
She said, hey, I had an affair with Trump. | ||
I'm going to go public with it. | ||
I'm going to tell all the details. | ||
I'm going to damage his campaign unless you give me money. | ||
They said, all right, fine. | ||
We'll give you money. And then they, I guess, in the... | ||
Campaign finance reports, they called that lawyer's fees rather than porn star hush money. | ||
And that's what he's being charged with. | ||
He's being charged with mislabeling the expense on his report. | ||
That's what he's being charged with. | ||
Now, I understand that that's still not something that you should be doing. | ||
I understand that that is a little bit of malfeasance on his campaign's part. | ||
The problem is when you look at other politicians who have done this exact thing. | ||
Except in a much worse way. | ||
In a much worse way. Before I get to the comparisons, let me also try to explain, and this is just my interpretation of this. | ||
I'll just say this. | ||
Donald Trump has been a billionaire playboy for as long as I've been alive. | ||
It's not exactly a secret that he likes beautiful women. | ||
Never been a secret. | ||
This has been obvious. But also a well-known thing about Trump, he's a little bit of a germaphobe. | ||
People might not realize is that professional porn stars are probably the safest people to have sex with. | ||
They literally get tested for every STD, like every couple of weeks. | ||
So I think if you're a germaphobe, but also a massive playboy, It sort of only makes sense that if you want to sleep with somebody, a porn star might be at the top of your list. | ||
After all, who else can sit there and say, I am guaranteed free from STDs? | ||
Every couple of weeks because my job relies on it. | ||
So I just want to lay out this idea of, like, you're sleeping with a porn star. | ||
Well, yeah, obviously. | ||
I think that's actually a kind of smart move for a billionaire. | ||
I mean, if that's the option, I think you would probably take it. | ||
But I always think that's a detail that gets missed. | ||
And remember, the brief sexual encounter she supposedly had with him, although she has written things denying that the encounter ever happened in the first place. | ||
But again, the encounter wasn't criminal. | ||
It happened in 2006, 10 years before he even ran for president. | ||
This has nothing to do with... | ||
The actions of the affair, what it has to do with is the payment to the porn star that was mislabeled on the expenses. | ||
Again, I get that that's not exactly 100%. | ||
I don't know if, I mean, I guess it's illegal. | ||
I guess it's illegal. I guess there's a legality question there. | ||
Here's the problem, though. | ||
Published on March 31st, 2022, DNC-Clinton campaign agreed to steal dossier funding fine. | ||
Hillary Clinton's 2016 presidential campaign and the Democratic National Committee have agreed to pay $113,000 to settle a Federal Election Commission investigation into whether they violated campaign finance law by misreporting spending on research that eventually became the infamous steal dossier. | ||
So let's just put this in perspective. | ||
Both campaigns did exactly the same thing, more or less. | ||
They used money to pay for something, and then on the expense reports, they labeled it incorrectly. | ||
Now, in Trump's case, he was being extorted by a porn star who wanted to give him bad press and demanded payment to withhold the story. | ||
And so they paid her. | ||
The Hillary Clinton campaign funded the Steele dossier that they knowingly used to falsely get a spy warrant, surveillance warrant, against the Trump campaign. | ||
They did this in collusion with and cooperation with We're good to go. | ||
When the Hillary Clinton campaign got caught doing this, they negotiated behind the scenes and actually the DNC itself agreed to pay the fine for Hillary Clinton of $113,000. | ||
It was never a big news story. | ||
And certainly Hillary Clinton was never forced to sit in a courtroom and have a criminal trial and be sent to jail for exactly the same crime that Donald Trump is charged with. | ||
Is it wrong that Donald Trump mislabeled the expense? | ||
I guess. I guess. | ||
What a terrible person he is. | ||
It's exactly the same thing that Hillary Clinton's campaign did, only in their case it was a $100,000 fine and it was paid not even by Hillary Clinton. | ||
Isn't that something? And again from CNN. Hillary Clinton campaign and DNC fined by FEC over Trump-Russia dossier research. | ||
So again, exactly the same crime mislabeling this expense on the report. | ||
Only in her case it was to sabotage the very concept of a free and fair election. | ||
It was to fabricate a falsified story to give the spy state an excuse to spy on her political rival in an attempt to bring him down with the full force and weight of the entire secret federal justice system. | ||
I just want to lay that out for you. | ||
So when we talk about Trump sitting in his trial, when we talk about the jury selection, when we talk about the fact this is a criminal proceeding, the first that he's having to deal with, just understand what an absolute farce this entire thing is. | ||
What a completely unprecedented misapplication of the law of a crime that is routinely committed by Presidential campaigns or political campaigns across the nation and are dealt with typically in the normal way of an FEC fine paid for usually by the campaign or in Hillary Clinton's case by the DNC. Something's different with Trump. | ||
Something's a little bit different. They're not treating it like they treated it with Hillary Clinton. | ||
They're not just slapping him on the wrist with a $100,000 fine and moving on and burying the story and treating him as if it's just business as usual. | ||
They're charging him with a criminal offense and attempting to send him to jail. | ||
And also not allowing him to campaign while the trial goes on. | ||
They've said that he cannot leave New York while the trial is taking place, not even to see his son's graduation, let alone to do the on-the-ground campaigning that is the bedrock and at the heart of every presidential campaign. | ||
So this is election rigging. | ||
This is completely unfair. | ||
Nobody's above the law. | ||
The only people that are under the law are the enemies of the deep state, like Donald Trump. | ||
And so we're going to go to some videos here of exactly what happened yesterday as jury selection finalized. | ||
We'll go first to clip number seven here. | ||
This is a New York Times reporter, Suzanne Craig, describing the scene inside Trump's jury selection. | ||
unidentified
|
Let's watch. What does that mean? | |
I mean, they're not on trial. | ||
unidentified
|
Well, the judge actually reminded them of that. | |
But they had things on their social media posts that Donald Trump and his lawyers found troubling. | ||
So the first one... In the category of bias. | ||
Of bias, yeah, because you're wondering, you know, what are they posting and will it go into whether or not they can be fair? | ||
So they asked, and the first one was juror number one. | ||
So the first one. And they bring up some social media posts to the judge. | ||
The judge wants to see them. | ||
They've screenshotted it. | ||
The judge is looking at them, and he's really confused. | ||
He says, did you give me the right piece of paper? | ||
He didn't even understand what he was looking at. | ||
So there were some questions. | ||
Between that and that, he ended up wanting to see, they were videos, they were screenshots of videos. | ||
And one of the videos happened to be the juror, juror number one, had taken a video at a distance of what looked like a celebration in the streets of New York for when Trump lost in 2020. | ||
I think that was it. And it showed that she was biased and there was some language that suggested that she might have a bias. | ||
So she was called in and interviewed by the judge and she said she happened to take the video when she was on the Upper West Side and she was outside parking her car and there was people celebrating in the distance. | ||
So she thought it was a very New York moment and she posted it. | ||
I also loved that it involved alternate side parking in New York. | ||
It all comes down to that in New York. | ||
So she was interviewed and left the room, and then we didn't have the cameras on, so we didn't have a visual of Donald Trump at this point from the overflow room that I sit in. | ||
We have closed-circuit TVs. | ||
But the judge, there was some back and forth between the lawyers, and then the judge actually admonished the former president, Wasn't immediately pulled, | ||
so... This is the mainstream media's job. | ||
Their position in America at this point is to take really outrageous things that should infuriate the average citizen in their just blatant unfairness and corruption, but to launder it rhetorically in order to present it as if it's really not that big of a deal. | ||
So I'll just translate what she said into... | ||
The language of reality. | ||
There was a juror, the first juror that they chose, who had a video where she was filming a Trump celebration. | ||
And the way this woman said it, there was some language that suggested she had some bias. | ||
What does that mean? All I can assume is that it was something like filming the celebration and saying, heck yeah, this is New York down with Orange Man or something like that. | ||
Who knows? It could have been, you know, thank God that P grabbing scumbag is out and New York is celebrating. | ||
I mean, who knows? Who knows what it is? | ||
It could be anything. | ||
All we know is that it was some language that suggested she had some bias. | ||
So she's biased. So she had social media posts reflecting her bias that she's anti-Trump, and yet the judge says that's fine. | ||
The judge says that's fine. | ||
She posts a video celebrating Trump's loss in 2020, celebrating the victory, using some words that show bias. | ||
Which for them to even say that means they couldn't spin it as if she didn't have bias. | ||
It wasn't just like, well, you know, it was just such a New York thing. | ||
You know, I post a video of people celebrating going, ha, New York, people are always celebrating something. | ||
You know, that would be something that didn't show bias. | ||
That would just be me filming a celebration and saying, man, New York is wild, isn't it? | ||
I wouldn't show any bias for New York Times on CNN to report on MSNBC or whatever that channel was to report that she had some language that showed some bias means that it wasn't something that they could cover up. | ||
It wasn't something that they could dismiss as We're good to go. | ||
Allowed to sit on the jury because the judge didn't care. | ||
And then of course the person that does get admonished is Trump for being upset that somebody who is against him politically is now allowed to decide his fate in a criminal trial. | ||
You can't be upset at that. | ||
You can't make faces when the judge allows an enemy of yours onto the jury of your trial, apparently. | ||
That's where we are in this country. | ||
Now, we have a list of who the jury is, the seven members of the jury. | ||
We have their professions and names. | ||
Everything about them, we'll get to that on the other side, and we'll show you some more videos about the fact that this, I mean, it's being rigged in front of us. | ||
It's just being rigged directly in front of us. | ||
They're just putting anti-Trump people onto the jury, and this is sort of a favorite tactic of theirs. | ||
It's how they got Derek Chauvin in prison. | ||
We'll talk about that on the other side, too. | ||
unidentified
|
All right, welcome back, folks. | |
The Trump trial is on, and it is a... | ||
Very poignant example of the wholesale corruption that is besetting our entire system from the top down. | ||
But of course that's fine because it's big bad Trump and who needs a functional justice system when you have fascism to stop, right? | ||
That's the mindset of many not just in the jury pool But in the court system itself, this imagery from Ben Garrison does a pretty good job of displaying the situation Trump finds himself in right now with the mainstream media, | ||
the Democratic Party, even the RINOs, and of course the small-scale DAs and Public prosecutors that are insistent that he's guilty. | ||
And the problem is that along with this cabal aligning against him are thousands of Americans also having decided that he's guilty. | ||
Guilty of what exactly? | ||
Well, the same thing Hillary Clinton was guilty of when she was fined $100,000 and completely let off the hook. | ||
Trump, however, is, for doing the exact same thing, now facing up to four years in prison. | ||
Because no one's above the law, after all. | ||
Again, just to catch you up on where we are now, lawyers chose seven jurors to decide the case against President Trump. | ||
The first seven jurors were chosen on Tuesday as the defendant looked on. | ||
One of them, of course, having already evinced and exposed anti-Trump bias, but was allowed to stay on the jury. | ||
I can only assume... | ||
There is no barrier to entry in that regard. | ||
Basically they ask, can you be unbiased? | ||
And if the person says yes, then even if in the past they've posted things showing that they were anti-Trump, showing that they were highly political and hyper-partisan, it doesn't matter because they said actually, but I can be totally unbiased actually. | ||
Literally, the people they dismissed were the ones that said, no, I can't be unbiased. | ||
So if you said you could be unbiased, then they just assumed that that was the case and believed you, and the judge said there was no reason to disbar you even though you had social media posts showing that you were biased, you'd still be allowed on the jury. | ||
This is how you rig an election. | ||
How you rig a court proceeding in order to rig an election. | ||
The pics came after a morning session in which several more potential jurors said that they could not be unbiased, underscoring the challenges of seating a panel in Manhattan, a profoundly Democratic bureau. | ||
Mr. Trump, 77, is charged with falsifying nearly three dozen business records in an attempt to cover up a payment to a porn star, Stormy Daniels, who said she had a brief sexual encounter with him in 2006. | ||
If convicted, he could face probation or up to four years of prison time. | ||
Mr. Trump denies having been involved with McDaniels at all and has declared his innocence. | ||
The trial is expected to last about six weeks, according to Juan M. Merchant, who is overseeing it, and court officials warn that the selection of 12 jurors and several alternates might take two weeks. | ||
And we do have some information about those jurors and alternates. | ||
I want to go now to a clip from Fox News. | ||
It's clip number 13. Trump's legal team discovered some of the jurors were actually planted. | ||
Let's watch. Over half of the jury's already been selected. | ||
We already know a lot about them, and it is hysterical. | ||
Before we tell you about them, remember that this is a Manhattan jury. | ||
It went 87% for Biden. | ||
And the judge who's overseeing the selection process is a Biden donor whose family was paid by the Biden campaign. | ||
Yesterday, 50 white women wearing masks fled the courtroom, claiming they couldn't be fair to Trump. | ||
Anyone wearing a mask at this point is not an impartial juror. | ||
Here's one white woman who works in cybersecurity who is excused. | ||
Listen. Did you say you could be unbiased though? | ||
unidentified
|
I did. It's very difficult for anyone really in this country to not come to this with prior opinions. | |
I think we all have prior opinions about the defendant unless you've been like living in a cardboard box. | ||
Show me a juror who says they can be unbiased towards Trump and I'll show you a liar. | ||
That's why we don't have political trials in America. | ||
Fairness is impossible. | ||
Trump's legal team was given the names of potential jurors, and after Googling them, discovered there were undercover activists trying to sneak onto the jury. | ||
One juror couldn't recall any anti-Trump feeling. | ||
But when the defense showed him the receipts, he admitted he'd posted on social media, quote, Donald Trump should be locked up. | ||
Another juror said he didn't remember posting anything bad about Trump. | ||
And then when shown the evidence, conceded to posting a picture that says, quote, Those two radical liberals got caught lying to the court and were almost seated on the jury. | ||
This is what Trump has to deal with. | ||
Yesterday, Clay Travis was criticized for suggesting Trump supporters get on the jury. | ||
So far, seven jurors have been seated. | ||
Here's what we know about them. | ||
The foreman, juror number one. | ||
He's a salesman from Harlem who was born in Ireland. | ||
He used to be a waiter, didn't finish college, and likes anything outdoorsy. | ||
He's married with no kids. | ||
His wife's in school. | ||
He gets his news from The New York Times, The Daily Mail, and some Fox News and MSNBC. Never met anybody who watches both Fox and MSNBC, but okay. | ||
That guy's your jury foreman. | ||
Juror number two. A nurse from the Upper East Side with a master's degree. | ||
She's not married, has no kids, and lives with her fiancé, who works in finance. | ||
She gets her news from The New York Times, Google, and CNN. She said two things that really stuck out. | ||
One, quote, I don't really have an opinion of Trump. | ||
And, quote, no one is above the law. | ||
I'm not so sure about juror number two. | ||
Juror number three is a young Asian lawyer from Oregon. | ||
His corporate law firm features DEI on its homepage. | ||
He's single, lives in Chelsea, and was wearing a purple jacket. | ||
Okay? He claims he's not super familiar with Trump's other charges. | ||
He likes to hike and run and gets his news from the New York Times, the Wall Street Journal, and Google. | ||
Juror number four is a Puerto Rican who finds Trump fascinating and mysterious. | ||
Quote, he walks into a room and he sets people off one way or the other. | ||
I find that really interesting, that this one guy can do all this. | ||
Wow. The guy was actually born in Puerto Rico, lives on the Lower East Side now and works in IT. He's married and he has grandkids. | ||
Wife's a writer. Previously served on a jury but says he doesn't remember the verdict. | ||
He gets his news from the New York Daily News, the New York Times and Google. | ||
Anyway. Jury number five, a black woman in her 20s who doesn't follow the news and didn't know Trump was facing charges, any charges, anywhere. | ||
She lives in Harlem. | ||
She's a teacher. She's not married, has no kids, and lives with her brother. | ||
We can take it down. | ||
I mean, we can just speed through the jury selection, the stories of the New York Post, the foreperson of the jury is that married guy from West Harlem, originally born in Ireland, the Oregon native, the blah, blah, blah. | ||
40-year-old Lower East Side who said he found Trump fascinating and mysterious. | ||
Female oncology nurse at Memorial Sloan Kettering who lives on the Upper East Side. | ||
Who gets her news from TikTok, by the way. | ||
Again, this is the problem with highly publicized or political trials is that everybody's got an opinion and if they don't, they probably shouldn't be on a jury, right? | ||
If you don't know that Trump is facing charges... | ||
We're in this weird situation where if you choose intelligent, informed, engaged people, then they likely have a preformed bias and can't be relied upon to be unbiased in their decision. | ||
But if they don't know what's going on and are completely disconnected, then I wouldn't want them on a jury anyway because what the hell do they know? | ||
This is why we don't do political trials, as Jesse Waters noted. | ||
But of course, this is not the first time this has happened. | ||
And you can just point to the trial of Derek Chauvin, the cop responsible for holding down George Floyd while he died of a fentanyl overdose. | ||
And jurors in that trial, who convicted him and sent him to prison for 25 years, where he's been stabbed multiple times, actually wore a Black Lives Matter t-shirt with the phrase, get your knee off my neck. | ||
They'll extend on that on the other side. | ||

|
Stay with us. Welcome back, folks. | |
Talking about Trump's criminal trial in its third day now in a Manhattan courtroom. | ||
He's facing 34 felony charges. | ||
Or something. | ||
Four years in prison. | ||
Doing the same thing that Hillary Clinton got a $115,000 fine for. | ||
The thing is... | ||
That we don't have to look at this trial alone. | ||
And in fact, if you look at all the other trials that Trump's been involved in, they all share this characteristic of being brought or persecuted or judged and decided by people who hate Donald Trump. | ||
What a coincidence. | ||
You've got Alvin Bragg, obviously, who has... | ||
Overseen and presided over the total collapse of law and order. | ||
In New York City, as routinely out of that city, we have story after story of criminals who have been arrested ten times in the last year getting out to stab a baby or to push an old woman down a flight of stairs. | ||
Not his focus. | ||
No, the focus of Alvin Bragg is getting Donald Trump at all possible cost. | ||
Then you've got the special prosecutor or the prosecutor, DA, Whatever she is. | ||
Who's the fat cow? Who's the fat cow lady? | ||
Letitia James. Thank you. | ||
Letitia James, who ran for her position on the promise that she would prosecute Donald Trump. | ||
In fact, she said it was the only thing she would do during a campaign speech. | ||
She said, I'll go into the office, I'll do what I can to destroy Donald Trump, and then I'll go home. | ||
And she was elected. And that's what she's doing. | ||
Fannie Willis, very similar. | ||
All of these people had many visits and communications with the Biden White House as this whole thing is orchestrated from Washington, D.C. And then you've got people like the grand jury forewoman, foreman, lady from the Georgia case. | ||
Who's that creepy sort of goblin lady that's like, I wanted to swear in Donald Trump because I wanted to lick him in the eyes. | ||
It's like, okay, well, you shouldn't have any authority or power ever. | ||
Certainly not anything with Donald Trump because you clearly hate him. | ||
And you are willing to rig an entire trial in order to get the petulant satisfaction of forcing him to listen to you for 30 seconds as you read a prepared text. | ||
These are the types of people that are deciding the fate of our entire nation, not just Donald Trump right now. | ||
And of course, whether or not he's even convicted or however the trial goes, it's already been massively successful. | ||
They expect this trial to take something like six weeks. | ||
At six weeks, Donald Trump is now shut into New York, cannot campaign, cannot speak out as he's got... | ||
All sorts of restrictions on what he can say and when. | ||
I mean, they are rigging the election as we speak. | ||
It is rigged. It is being rigged right in front of us, and these proceedings are simply a part of it. | ||
After all, this dates back to 2016. | ||
They could have done this at any time. | ||
You don't think this was carefully orchestrated to land right in the middle of a presidential campaign? | ||
They had four years to bring this when Trump wasn't president. | ||
They chose until right now so that for six weeks, in the heart of a presidential campaign, he is prevented from doing any campaigning. | ||
They have rigged the election. | ||
This is called rigging the election. | ||
That's what they're doing. Even if he's found innocent. | ||
Even if he's declared not guilty. | ||
It's already had its intended effect. | ||
And again, this is something that we have to sort of come to terms with, and I don't really know... | ||
I don't know what the move is here, because we're damned if we do, damned if we don't, in terms of having honor, in terms of being a truthful and honest person. | ||
Because the left has decided that they're in an existential fight for humanity, And that Trump represents Hitler 2.0. | ||
So when you are in that mindset, when you're in that mind frame, what wouldn't you do? | ||
Right? I mean, if you sincerely believe, as these people do, that Trump is a threat to democracy itself, that if Trump gets into power, he will be an authoritarian psychopath that will throw all of your friends in prison, would you not maybe... | ||
Tell a little white lie. | ||
Would you not be willing to just kind of fib a little bit? | ||
I mean, what's a fib? When you're fibbing in order to save the world, right? | ||
When you are ontologically good, is that the right word? | ||
When everything you do is for the greater good, and you are on the side of good versus evil, well, you can justify all sorts of things. | ||
Certainly, Concealing your political bias is nothing compared to saving the world from Hitler, right? | ||
So that's the mindset of these leftists. | ||
And it's pervasive. | ||
And it's allowed to happen. | ||
And these people are allowed to lie about their biases, lie about their preconceived notions before ever getting to trial or hearing any evidence. | ||
And they're allowed to convict people for their political beliefs or political ideology. | ||
I think one of the best or most pertinent and obvious examples is from the trial of Derek Chauvin. | ||
Story from New York Post all the way back in 2021. | ||
Juror's BLM t-shirt sparks concern about Derek Chauvin trial. | ||
A photo recently emerged online of a juror on the Derek Chauvin murder trial wearing a Black Lives Matter T-shirt that sparked questions about his impartiality. | ||
So this was after the trial commenced, after the trial concluded, actually. | ||
They had found him guilty, and one of the jurors that cast that guilty vote was discovered to have been wearing a shirt. | ||
A photo was posted on social media by his uncle. | ||
And this person, Brandon Mitchell, a Black guy, was wearing a T-shirt emblazoned with a picture of Martin Luther King Jr., and the phrases, get your knee off our neck and BLM. He's also wearing a Black Lives Matter hat in the photo. | ||
Get your knee off our neck. | ||
He's wearing a shirt that says, get your knee off our neck. | ||
And then he is put on the jury to decide the fate of Derek Chauvin, who is being charged with murder. | ||
Because he had his knee on George Floyd's neck while George Floyd died of an opium overdose. | ||
Fentanyl heart attack. | ||
Mitchell was the first member of the jury that convicted Chauvin of murdering George Floyd to publicly comment about the trial. | ||
In a Monday interview with the Star Tribune, Mitchell said that the photos from a rally in Washington, D.C. last summer commemorating MLK's famous 1963 I Have a Dream speech. | ||
Mitchell told the newspaper his uncle had posted the photos to social media. | ||
The jury insisted the D.C. march had nothing to do with Floyd. | ||
Yeah, it had, wait, go back to the photo. | ||
Yeah, you know, it's had nothing to do with George Floyd. | ||
I'm just wearing a shirt that says, get your knee off our necks. | ||
Nothing to do with George Floyd, though. | ||
Get your knee off our neck, but it didn't have anything to do with George Floyd. | ||
And people believe that? | ||
I mean, come on, I mean, it's just obviously untrue. | ||
I mean, it's just, it's beyond obvious. | ||
I mean, there's no other metaphor I could bring up that could be more obvious. | ||
You have a guy sitting there going, no, I don't even know about Black Lives Matter. | ||
What's that? He's wearing a Black Lives Matter hat. | ||
This has nothing to do with George Floyd. | ||
There's a big picture of George Floyd on his t-shirt. | ||
I mean, come on. So this is what happens in modern America. | ||
We have to come to terms with this. | ||
You know, I don't know what we do because I don't want this to be the world that we live in. | ||
I know if I was called up for jury selection, I wouldn't be able to lie. | ||
I take oaths seriously. | ||
And if I take an oath to be impartial, I would have to be impartial. | ||
And if they asked me if I had preconceived notions about the trial, I would have to say yes because I'm just compelled internally to do that. | ||
Typically, in an upright, respectable, honorable society, that would be a good thing. | ||
It would be a good thing to have citizens Who refuse to lie. | ||
Citizens who, even if they have a chance to do something underhanded in order to gain a political advantage, will not do that thing because they have honor and self-respect and refuse to lie for benefit. | ||
But I guess that's how we lose. | ||
I guess that's how we lose in a thoroughly corrupt system where our enemies are perfectly willing to lie. | ||
Perfectly willing to just boldface violate oaths in front of everybody. | ||
Nobody cares. Nobody holds them to account. | ||
In this article even from the New York Post, they're like, oh, I guess it had nothing to do with Floyd. | ||
He said it had nothing to do with Floyd. | ||
Really, the shirt that says, get your knee off our necks, Black Lives Matter, that had nothing to do with Floyd. | ||
I mean, this is how absurd it is. | ||
Trump apparently plans to testify in his own defense at this trial. | ||
And again, the charges trace back to a $130,000 hush money payment that Trump's fixer Michael Cohen made to a porn actress Stormy Daniels in 2016 to express her story of a sexual liaison with Trump in 2006. | ||
While serving as president, Trump reimbursed Cohen, and how he did so constituted fraud, prosecutors said. | ||
Again, the affair wasn't illegal. | ||
Paying her wasn't illegal. | ||
Paying the lawyer to pay her wasn't illegal. | ||
It was just said lawyer's fees because it was a fee paid to a lawyer, when it should have said lawyer fee to pay Stormy Daniels, I guess. | ||
That's the crime that he's now facing 34 felony counts and four years in prison with a biased jury. | ||
Despicable. | ||
unidentified
|
people. | |
Welcome back, folks. Second hour is on. | ||
We're going to open up the phone lines for your calls in just a minute. | ||
I do want to go to one of these videos here. | ||
I have so many fantastic videos to get to. | ||
Let's go to clip number nine here. | ||
This is a man named Peter St. | ||
Ong, and he, and I think I'm pronouncing that right, Peter S-T space O-N-G-E. He does great reports about the economy. | ||
Here's him talking about the falsified job reports and the reality that lurks within. | ||
Clip number nine. The Biden jobs miracle keeps grinding away with a, quote, stellar March jobs report logging nearly 300,000 new jobs that blew away even the most meth-pumped analysts on Wall Street, and it makes the third month in a row of improbably tremendous job beats. | ||
Just one problem, it was all part-time jobs. | ||
Full-time jobs actually fell by 6,000, continuing a trend over the past year where full-time workers have collapsed by almost a million and a half, replaced by nearly 2 million part-time workers, put them together, and presto, job growth. | ||
Sadly, what real jobs are left apparently did not even go to native-born Americans. | ||
In fact, they lost precisely 651,000 jobs last month, bringing the three-month tally to nearly 1.5 million jobs lost by the native-born in three months. | ||
In fact, there's been literally zero job growth for native-born workers since 2018. | ||
All the jobs have gone to the foreign-born population, of which, according to the Center for Immigration Statistics, roughly half Actually went to the 9 million illegals. | ||
To give a sense of the scale, over 1 in 3 US-born men with a high school degree are not working. | ||
Things are fine, of course, for those with a bachelor's degree. | ||
90% of them have a job and no doubt cheap nannies and lawn care. | ||
Keep in mind this is all best case because I've mentioned in recent videos the epic statistical divergence between official payroll numbers sampled from companies and the household numbers which actually ask people if they have a job. | ||
The gap between the two currently stands at a daunting 9 million phantom jobs. | ||
Maybe they exist, maybe they don't. | ||
The BLS just extrapolates they don't actually work here. | ||
Now, I mentioned in recent videos that the most amazing thing about the grim jobs picture is that this is happening even with $2 trillion deficits that should, in theory, at least be buying some jobs. | ||
After all, spend that much money and somebody gets paid. | ||
In other words, we can only imagine what's under the hood once you peel off the trillions pouring out of Washington. | ||
So that's next, brought to you by Unchained.com. | ||
Given both the border and Washington's checkbook are wide open, expect yet more millions of migrants to boost the jobs numbers while holding down wage gains for natives who do still have a job. | ||
Just a few weeks ago, Jerome Powell actually bragged about this on 60 Minutes, crediting the open border for holding down blue-collar wages, which he likes because it does the inflation dirty work for him. | ||
Of course, at the expense of those blue-collar workers or former workers buying groceries on layaway while Paul Krugman lectures them about the Bidenomics miracle. | ||
Do not expect much relief, at least until the election, and even then it will be trench warfare against a unit party that is addicted to the government spending, the regulatory jihad on small business, and the cheap imported labor that keeps jobs and wages under control. | ||
Okay, we'll be watching. | ||
See you next time. So there you go, Peter St. | ||
Ong, my dad's favorite economist right there with that video, showing the absolute dismal prospect of jobs in the economy here in the United States, at least for the American people. | ||
The foreign population, they're doing great. | ||
It's a bonanza for them, the illegal immigrants or legal immigrants, the people who are being brought in under H-1B visas in order to, you know, take engineering jobs that could go to university graduates from here in America, but instead are given to Indian engineers. | ||
They're doing great. The economy works very well for them. | ||
The American middle class, however, is of course paying the price. | ||
It would be a massive failure of the economic system if it wasn't the purpose. | ||
What this represents in reality is the incredible success of a government attempting to tear down its own nation in real time. | ||
Welcome back. Ladies and gentlemen, second hour of the American Journal is on. | ||
We're going to take on some of these other topics before returning at the 10 o'clock time slot to the Trump trial. | ||
Savannah Hernandez has been in New York at the courthouse, and we're going to get an inside view. | ||
From her. Very excited to talk to her. | ||
We'll be taking your calls throughout this hour. | ||
The number to dial is 1-877-789-2539. | ||
That's 1-877-789-2539. | ||
Give us a call about anything and everything going on today. | ||
And there's a lot going on. There's a massive press conference in Japan about the vaccine side effects as they are actually looking into the mass murder campaign. | ||
The Philippines also investigating the massive number of unexplained deaths in that country. | ||
Yesterday we talked about just some of the catastrophic effects of the vaccine In places like the US and the UK, one of the images that I didn't end up showing, but is vitally important, is comparison between the number of unexplained deaths in just the last two years and the number of civilian casualties during times like World War II. And I think when you compare the numbers, | ||
I think the total number of civilian casualties in World War II for the UK was 40,000. | ||
The number of excess deaths Since the rollout of the jab has been over 100,000. | ||
I think something like 120,000. | ||
So whatever's happened, whatever's going on, they don't want to blame the vaccine. | ||
So you got to come up with something else because something is happening in the world that's causing three times as many people to die than died during the Nazi bombardment of World War II. So unless you have another reasonable explanation for what this is, This represents mass murder via the jab, and there's really not a lot of other options it could be. | ||
Horrifying stuff, so I do want to get to that. | ||
In just a little bit, we've got, of course, cost of living, issues continuing to beset the American middle class, transgenderism, just all sorts of things to get into. | ||
I want to go to a video now. | ||
This was testimony given in front of the Congress about the Afghan withdrawal. | ||
And it's about a five-minute clip and let the whole thing play. | ||
It's pretty heartbreaking, but I think what it represents is sort of a microcosm of how the American people are treated overall in this country. | ||
So it's a man named Sergeant Tyler Vargas. | ||
He is a Marine Corps sniper. | ||
He was there in Afghanistan, was injured by a suicide bomber during the Afghan withdrawal process. | ||
And this is him discussing the frustration of knowing what the problem is, having the ability to deal with the problem, being prevented from doing so, and watching his friends die as a consequence. | ||
I think, while not many of us have been in a situation as extreme or horrifying as this, I think we can all recognize that In some form, the frustration we all feel with our leadership today. | ||
So let's go to clip number five here. | ||
It's Marine Corps Sniper Sergeant Tyler Vargas. | ||
unidentified
|
On August 22nd, an improvised explosive device IED probe took place down the canal running along the perimeter of HKIA. This was ISIS or the Taliban performing an IED test run. | |
We reported this to our chain of command. | ||
Days later, we received word to be on the lookout for two vehicle-borne IEDs described as a gold or white Corolla and a green Mazda convertible. | ||
Around 2 a.m. on August 26th, the intel guys confirmed the suicide bomber in the vicinity of and nearing Abbey Gate, described as clean-shaven, brown-dressed, black vest, and traveling with an older companion. | ||
I asked the intel guys why he wasn't apprehended sooner since we had a full description. | ||
I was told the asset could not be compromised. | ||
Throughout the entirety of the day on August 26th, 2021, we disseminated the suicide bomber information to ground forces at Abbey Gate. | ||
He was spotted somewhere from noon to 1 p.m. | ||
by myself, then Sergeant Charles Schilling, and another, the anomaly in the crowd, who was clean-shaven and fit the description exactly, traveling with an older gentleman. | ||
The individual was consistently and nervously looking up at our position through the crowd. | ||
The older of the two wore a black silky hijab that was covering his face most of the time. | ||
They both had obvious mannerisms that go along with who we believed him to be. | ||
They handed out small cards to the crowd periodically, and the older man sat calmly and seemingly coached the bomber. | ||
Over the communication network, we passed that there was a potential threat and an IED attack imminent. | ||
This was as serious as it could get. | ||
I requested engagement authority while my team leader was ready on the M110 semi-automatic sniper system. | ||
The response? Leadership did not have the engagement authority for us. | ||
Do not engage. I requested for the battalion commander, Lieutenant Colonel Brad Whited, to come to the tower to see what we did. | ||
While we waited for him, psychological operations individuals came to our tower immediately and confirmed the suspect met the suicide bomber description. | ||
He eventually arrived and we showed him our evidence, the photos we had of the two men. | ||
We reassured him of the ease of fire on the suicide bomber. | ||
Pointedly, we asked him for engagement authority and permission. | ||
We asked him if we could shoot. Our battalion commander said, and I quote, I don't know, end quote. | ||
Myself and my team leader asked very harshly, well, who does? | ||
Because this is your responsibility, sir. | ||
He again replied, he did not know, but would find out. | ||
We received no update and never got our answer. | ||
Eventually, the individual disappeared. | ||
To this day, we believe he was a suicide bomber. | ||
We made everyone on the ground aware. | ||
Operations had briefly halted, but then started again. | ||
Plain and simple, we were ignored. | ||
Our expertise was disregarded. | ||
No one was held accountable for our safety. | ||
About 1730, Staff Sergeant Darren Hoover, friend and mentor, came to get me from the tower to go help find an Afghan interpreter in the crowd. | ||
We found the interpreter and his brother born with American passports. | ||
They told us of five family members still in the canal. | ||
I stayed there waiting for the family members standing against a two-foot canal wall. | ||
Ten minutes passed. Then a flash and a massive wave of pressure. | ||
I'm thrown 12 feet onto the ground, but instantly knew what had happened. | ||
I opened my eyes to Marines dead or unconscious lying around me. | ||
A crowd of hundreds immediately vanished in front of me, and my body was catastrophically wounded with 100 to 150 ball bearings now in it. | ||
Almost immediately we started taking fire from the neighborhood and I saw how injured I was with my right arm completely shredded and unusable. | ||
I saw my lower abdomen soaked in blood. | ||
I crawled backwards roughly seven feet because I thought I was still in harm's way. | ||
My body was overwhelmed from the trauma of the blast. | ||
My abdomen had been ripped open. | ||
Every inch of my exposed body except for my face took ball bearings and shrapnel. | ||
I tried to get up but could not. | ||
Laying there for a few minutes, I started to lose consciousness when I heard Chaz, my team leader, screaming my name as he ran to me. | ||
His voice calling to me kept me awake. | ||
When he got to me, he dragged me to safety and immediately started triaging me, tying tourniquets on my limbs and doing anything he could to stop the bleeding and start plugging wounds with the help of the other Marines. | ||
I was awake through most of it, screaming, moaning, and cursing. | ||
I asked you to please ask me about getting shot at the tower in Abbey Gate and how no one wanted my report post-blast. | ||
Even NCIS and the FBI failed to interview me, asked me to elaborate on my ordeal post-blast, and asked me about this one little girl and her family that I reunited. | ||
Our military members and veterans deserve our best because that is what we give to America. | ||
The withdrawal The withdrawal was a catastrophe, in my opinion. | ||
And there was an inexcusable lack of accountability and negligence. | ||
The 11 Marines, one sailor, and one soldier that were murdered that day have not been answered for. | ||
Thank you. Yeah, kind of hard to watch. | ||
Not for the people in Congress, though. | ||
That might be the most telling thing about that entire... | ||
Statement is it cuts to the representatives who he's talking to, and they're just like looking down at tablets, just like, mm-hmm. | ||
Yeah, they couldn't care less. | ||
Could not care less. | ||
Obviously, it's tragic that these guys died. | ||
It's a tragic example of the willful incompetence of the Biden administration. | ||
They're literally not even paying attention. | ||
This is a Marine Corps veteran who's breaking down into, like, do you know what it takes to make a guy like that cry? | ||
They couldn't care. Couldn't care less. | ||
And to me it just feels like a very symbolic, like I said, sort of microcosm Just what it's like to be an American right now. | ||
We're sitting here watching the disaster unfold. | ||
We're sitting here going, this is getting bad. | ||
People are going to die. | ||
We can stop it easily. | ||
He talks about an automatic sniper system trained on the guy. | ||
Avoiding this catastrophe with a dozen people Dead U.S. soldiers was literally the push of a button. | ||
Could have pushed the button and the problem would have been solved. | ||
But they couldn't. Why? Because they didn't have permission. | ||
It was all kind of chaotic. | ||
The leadership didn't want to cause trouble with the natives. | ||
They didn't want to scare them with the sniper shot. | ||
They didn't want to, you know, compromise their intelligence. | ||
So they chose to allow this to happen. | ||
It was a choice they made. | ||
It was a failure of leadership. | ||
And it really does feel like just an extreme example of everything in this country. | ||
And then when the dead body is brought back to the United States, Joe Biden's frustrated. | ||
He has to spend five minutes standing there. | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
I cannot imagine the frustration. | ||
I mean, I kind of can, though. | ||
But I kind of can, though, because it is what we're going through. | ||
I keep mentioning these people who have rap sheets a mile long. | ||
They've been arrested 30 times in 10 years or whatever it is. | ||
They keep getting convicted of felonies. | ||
And our response as a society is to let them back out on the street and To kill or maim or violate the safety of some other innocent person. | ||
Like, we have the solution. | ||
It's not hard. You put them in jail. | ||
You do what Nayib Ukele is doing in El Salvador and having massive success doing it. | ||
You push the button on the snipe machine and you take out the suicide bomber. | ||
Now, an interesting statement in that was the guy says, well, wait, if we have such a good description of this guy, why didn't we arrest him? | ||
If we know there's a suicide bomber on his way to detonate a blast, kill us and civilians, why didn't we stop him? | ||
And the answer he's given is the asset could not be compromised. | ||
What asset? Compromised how? | ||
Was the suicide bomber an asset? | ||
That kind of seems what he's saying, but that... | ||
Well, it shouldn't make any sense. | ||
It kind of does make sense, but it shouldn't. | ||
So somebody else in his group is an asset that reported, hey, this guy's a suicide bomber. | ||
Why do you have an asset? | ||
Why is it important to have an asset if the asset's information is not acted upon? | ||
So that was a decision they made to willfully allow the death of a dozen American servicemen And they couldn't care less. | ||
So again, I think in many ways it is a microcosm. | ||
And then at the end, he says the FBI, the NCIS, nobody even interviewed him to determine what happened. | ||
There was no concern. There was no interest in like, well, how did this intelligence failure come about? | ||
Where in the chain of command did things break down? | ||
They don't care. They don't care. | ||
The most important thing for them... | ||
is being able to present the Afghanistan withdrawal as not as bad as it seems. | ||
Once again, upholding of the facade of a capable federal government supersedes all other concerns up to and including concerns that could save your life. | ||
It really is tragic, but I think to some minuscule degree, we all feel like that Marine. | ||
We all see the problems that are imminently solvable. | ||
We all know how to solve them. | ||
Oh, this was him. | ||
This was the guy who, yeah, Biden tried to shake. | ||
He lost a hand, and Biden put out his hand to shake his hand, I guess not realizing. | ||
The dude had his arm blown off because of Joe Biden's incompetence. | ||
Yeah. Well, how many people, how many tens of thousands of people in this country have lost loved ones or been injured or had some other catastrophe befall them because of the willful incompetence of the Democrat system? | ||
whose only overriding concern is upholding their own image. | ||
Honestly, it's... | ||
unidentified
|
Something has to be done. | |
Something has to be done. | ||
We got more videos to go to, but let's go out to your calls because we have some comments. | ||
I want to go to calls about the Trump trial. | ||
Let's go to line number seven now. | ||
Jen in Georgia. Hey, whoever's on line eight, I think we accidentally just hung up on you. | ||
So if you want to call back in, we'll get you to the top of the list. | ||
But Jen in Georgia first, you're on the air. | ||
Hey, so don't you have to be a registered voter in order to be selected for jury? | ||
I don't know about that. | ||
unidentified
|
Maybe. I mean, that's what I've always heard. | |
I don't know if that's true or not, but if that is the case, it tells me that this lady who says she had no idea about Trump's trials is either lying about it or that she's just blindly going in and voting Democrat because, well, how could you not know unless you're living under a rock? | ||
But I was going to say, too, as far as, like, Seeing registered voters as being selected for jury duty. | ||
If that's the case, is there not supposed to be a balance of registered Republican voters, registered Democrat voters, and registered independent voters who would be selected to keep it a balance? | ||
Seems to me that if they are selecting people, they're doing it with a bias of only selecting Democratic voters. | ||
Well, I think, like we reported, I think 97% of people in this borough voted Democrat. | ||
So it's like, I don't know, you'd be very hard-pressed to find enough Republicans to even fill a jury pool in Manhattan in particular. | ||
So, yeah, I don't know how they take that into account. | ||
unidentified
|
Well, that would be very crooked if they did that. | |
And I don't think it's going to stick if that's how they're going to play their game. | ||
Also, if you're going to be wearing, you know, attire to a trial, you shouldn't, as like you would at your workplace or at school, you should not be wearing political things. | ||
Right. | ||
Like, don't get your knee off on that. | ||
That shouldn't be allowed. | ||
Just to clarify, that was a picture of his... | ||
So he didn't wear that to the trial. | ||
No, he actually was very careful not to wear anything like that to the trial. | ||
He lied during jury selection saying, I don't know anything about George Floyd. | ||
I don't know anything about this. | ||
I'm not a member of Black Lives Matter. | ||
He lied about it and then later... | ||
People found images of him at rallies in Washington, D.C. wearing that shirt. | ||
So he didn't wear the shirt to the trial. | ||
If he'd done that, he would have never been chosen to be on the jury. | ||
No, they conceal their political beliefs in order to get on the jury. | ||
Then they come out later, the shirts they were wearing and that sort of thing. | ||
So just clarify what happened there. | ||
So yeah, if you're wearing a political shirt to the jury selection, I think you'll probably be taken off right away. | ||
But yeah, I don't know about the juries, you know, serving on a jury and registering to vote. | ||
I know typically you do all of that at once. | ||
Like I remember turning 18 and like you have to sign up for a selective service and jury duty and to vote. | ||
But I don't know if, you know, all three are tied in together, if you can just do one or the other. | ||
So I don't know about that, but it is an interesting thought. | ||
Thank you for that call, Jen. | ||
Patty in Boston has called in about Trump not being able to campaign. | ||
Patty, I know you. | ||
You're an honorable and a trustworthy man. | ||
You understand how utterly rigged this trial is, right? | ||
What a blatant violation of every norm this represents. | ||
You're not in favor of this, are you? | ||
Wrong, sir. Now, I'm going to tell you why you're wrong. | ||
The idea that he can't hold rallies and that would somehow affect the number of votes he's going to get is absurd. | ||
Because I can tell you, I've been to Trump rallies. | ||
You know this. I've been to Trump rallies and I just counted it up while I was on the phone. | ||
Eight different states, right, over the last, you know, five years. | ||
I've been to Trump rallies and Trump-related events. | ||
And there's not a single person that walks into that rally. | ||
unidentified
|
Who's on the fence, who thinks, maybe I'll vote for Biden. | |
No. Maybe I'll vote for Hillary. | ||
No. That doesn't happen, right? | ||
He doesn't gain a single, solitary voter by doing a rally because he gives the same speech every single time To the point where I have noticed, and I think a lot of other people have noticed, that people get very bored during the actual event. | ||
They're all excited about it before, and then he rambles on for an hour and a half, and people are looking at their watches, their phones, they're looking to get out, whatever, so they can go back outside and scream about MAGA stuff. | ||
Look, he doesn't gain a single voter. | ||
So your whole premise that the idea that they're trying to kill his ability to campaign He's not convincing anybody on the campaign trail, man. | ||
Everybody's already made up their mind. | ||
unidentified
|
We can have a vote today or in November, and it will be the same. | |
You're really not being honest here, Patty. | ||
You understand why people campaign. | ||
You understand that people campaign. | ||
You get that during a presidential election season, the presidential candidates go around the country and campaign. | ||
That's what they do. And if you're preventing somebody from doing that for six weeks... | ||
That that is an egregious violation? | ||
In a normal campaign, in a normal traditional American campaign, you would be right. | ||
But not in this one. | ||
Oh, right, right. This is the exception. | ||
Just like how in a normal situation, if there was mislabeled payments to a lawyer, you would just get a fine. | ||
But this is an exception, right? | ||
Trump's an exception. Normally, you would really want your jury to be totally unbiased. | ||
But in this case, it's an exception, right? | ||
Everything's an exception for Trump. | ||
I didn't say anything about that. No, but it's fine to stop a presidential candidate from campaigning. | ||
It's okay to prevent a presidential candidate in April of an election year to not be able to leave New York City for six weeks. | ||
That's just fine to you. | ||
No, what's fine to me is that the guy has been charged with legitimate crimes, and whether he gets convicted or not, and I don't think there's any chance he will, but in any case, he's going to have to deal with this stuff. | ||
But what I'm saying is there is nobody in this country, not a significant number of people, who are confused about whether they support Trump or not. | ||
That is such a ridiculous argument. | ||
So you could use that excuse to say, well, maybe Trump just—he doesn't get to do campaign ads. | ||
He doesn't get to give speeches. | ||
He doesn't get to have a social media account because everybody's already decided, right? | ||
Patty, the point of the rallies is to empower and energize your base. | ||
Going to the Trump rallies isn't about trying to convert people to Trump, although it does. | ||
It's about the speeches that spread all over the internet, giving his policy that will convert tons of people. | ||
I was converted because of speeches that he gave in 2016 and because of the rally engagement in 2016. | ||
Going to the rallies fires up your base to get them more active. | ||
The fallout of that is massive. | ||
You understand what a violation this is, and it's an insult that you think you're tricking us. | ||
Welcome back, ladies and gentlemen. | ||
This is American Journal. We're going to go out to your phone calls here in just a second. | ||
We've got a lot of other stuff to talk about as well, including the impeachment of Alejandro Mayorkas, Secretary of Homeland Security, who has continued his activism in office just before becoming head of DHS. He was, He was, of course, head of the Hebrew whatever assistance program for the migrants. | ||

Let's go back out to your phone calls now. | ||
Mark in California wants to respond to Patty in Boston. | ||
Mark, I don't know. It's no big deal that a presidential candidate gets taken off the campaign trail for six weeks in the middle of an election year. | ||
Is it? I mean, why would that be a big deal? | ||
unidentified
|
Well, Harrison, first off, you and Owen and the rest of the guys, you guys are the A-team. | |
Just wanted you to know that, of all the media. | ||
And, of course, Alex is the captain of the team. | ||
And I buy all the products before the nitrate books come in. | ||
So everybody that's not buying, you're really cheating yourself. | ||
Start buying these products. Thanks. | ||
But that being said, Harrison, you did a great job of responding to Passion Boston, but I want to take it up a notch as a professional for over 35 years, studying human psychology, even at a spiritual level. | ||
Pat, he's probably not aware of this. | ||
I'm not casting any disparaging words on him, but I highly doubt he's a spiritual man that goes to church on a regular basis or participates in any type of religion. | ||
The rallies are not just about getting a bunch of people together that are on the fence. | ||
Far be it from that. | ||
It's like going to church. | ||
The true believers, I go to church three out of four Sundays a month. | ||
I'm sitting there looking at my watch and my iPhone during it. | ||
It doesn't mean I'm not paying attention. | ||
But it connects people at a spiritual level. | ||
It gets them enthusiastic at bringing people together. | ||
As a Christian man, Harrison, I'm sure you were this. | ||
And then that gives them the spiritual and emotional energy to go out into the community and talk to others. | ||
And it's disinvigorating. | ||
And obviously the enemies of Donald Trump, they know the dams that it does when you can't have the congregation getting together on a regular basis. | ||
And that's why they don't want Donald Trump to do his rallies. | ||
Exactly. 100%. | ||
That's exactly what I was trying to express, too. | ||
Because when you go to these Trump rallies, even if you don't go inside, like I've never been inside a Trump rally, but I've been to plenty just, you know, walking around the outside, interviewing people, you know, communicating with people, and it invigorates you to this huge degree. | ||
I mean, it like really, it's hard to explain. | ||
It's hard to express. Like you go there and And you feel like, oh, I'm a part of something. | ||
Oh man, there are millions of people just like me. | ||
We're all in this together. | ||
It shatters all of the, I mean, if everything you're getting about Trump rallies is through the mainstream media, you're getting this completely distorted view when you go there, when you feel the energy, when you participate in the chants, when you're high-fiving people going down the line. | ||
I mean, it is, it's something special. | ||
You're exactly right. Exactly that. | ||
unidentified
|
And to interrupt, the thing is, the enemies of Donald Trump, that's why they have the BLM rallies, and that's why they get on FIFA together. | |
They know that that... | ||
Now, they're doing it on the dark side, don't get me wrong. | ||
There is such a thing as a good force and a dark force, to use whatever that is. | ||
People of like minds, when they get together... | ||
They're not just additions, they're multiplication factors at a spiritual level, at an emotional level, and that's going to make them go out into their community, and that's going to empower them to talk to their friends that are on the fence, or even ambivalent, don't even care. | ||
And that's what they're trying to quash. | ||
Or if they're posting images of themselves at the Trump rally and going, hey, look how great and fun this is, don't you want to be a part of this? | ||
I mean, the downstream effect of a Trump rally coming to your city is unimaginable. | ||
unidentified
|
It's a multiplication factor in the many thousands, and that's what they're trying to squash. | |
So, Patty from Boston, we love you, but you know what, Patty? | ||
Go somewhere. Doesn't have to be a tramp rally. | ||
Try to just get enthusiastic at a spiritual level of something. | ||
I like that. | ||
He's a good guy, buddy. | ||
He's kind of like the sand in an oyster that creates a pearl later. | ||
You've got to have that agitation. | ||
He's the adjutant. That's very funny. | ||
No, I like Patty, too, but he frustrates me, but it's because we're such good friends that we can have those arguments and still respect each other. | ||
unidentified
|
My brother, right? My brother-in-law, I still love him. | |
During the break, I was just thinking, okay, well, what if Biden was going through something like this? | ||
Would I care? Would I be all sad that he wasn't able to campaign? | ||
So when you put yourself in the mindset of this, if Biden right now was being brought up on a trial because of his participation in Hunter Biden's business activities, we wouldn't be crying tears about the fact that he wasn't able to campaign. | ||
So I get it. It's a partisan position to have, but at the same time... | ||
You've got to understand that the fact that he's not allowed to campaign for six weeks is just the cherry on top of an already thoroughly corrupt Sunday, right? | ||
It's already wrong that he's even facing these charges. | ||
It's wrong that it's being treated as criminal. | ||
It's wrong that it's happening in the middle of a campaign season. | ||
It's wrong that he's not allowed to leave New York City during it. | ||
All of these things are wrong. | ||
It obviously represents a thoroughly corrupt system doing everything it can to destroy a political candidate that's their enemy. | ||
And if you actually care about democracy, as these people claim to do, you would be against this. | ||
unidentified
|
Welcome back, folks. . | |
We're gonna go out to your phone calls again in this segment. | ||
In the first five minutes of the next hour, I'm gonna play a video of Marjorie Taylor Greene grilling Alejandro Mayorkas. | ||
I'll talk a little bit about that at the end of this segment just to set it up for you. | ||
And then we'll be joined by Savannah Hernandez, who's on the road right now, but she'll be calling in by phone to give us an update as to what it's like on the ground of the Trump trial in New York City. | ||
We're going to continue to talk about the Trump trial with our callers now. | ||
Let's go to Daniel in Canada who has a question for us about the Trump trial. | ||
Thanks for calling in, Daniel. You're on the air. | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah, thanks for taking my call. | |
I really appreciate it. | ||
I'm not really too knowledgeable on the whole complex of the politics in the United States, but what I'm concerned about is, okay, so now they're going to ban Trump from going to the campaign trail and, you know, say he wins, which, let's say he wins. | ||
And they're going to try and come out and say, well, you know, you can't go to the White House. | ||
They're going to try and block him to go to the White House. | ||
So then would he be able to get the vice president to do it? | ||
And what if they block him to do it? | ||
And then all of a sudden, you know, like there's no president and there's no vice president and he won. | ||
And what happens then? | ||
Well, you know, obviously we're in uncharted territory here, so who knows what they would do, legal or otherwise, in that situation. | ||
But I think, for one thing, if he does get sentenced to prison, there will likely be an appeal process. | ||
He wouldn't be sent directly to prison. | ||
I don't think. I don't think he would be sent directly. | ||
I think he would be allowed to appeal it. | ||
He is, it's completely possible, it's not against the law at all, that somebody in prison could be elected president. | ||
That might happen. I'm not sure the legality of pardoning himself at that point, but that's a possibility. | ||
Yes, Trump could be elected president as a convicted felon, and that's a headline there. | ||
Which is unbelievable to think that either, because the people who are running the show are breaking all kinds of rules, which I think in history, this will be known as the most corrupt I don't disagree with you. | ||
You know, Soviets were as communism came down on their society. | ||
I mean, it might seem baffling to us because all these developments are flying in from all these different angles, but looking at this from a bird's eye view, it's very obvious that show trials are being carried out to convict and prevent a political opponent of the ruling establishment. | ||
I mean, I've said it many times before. | ||
You don't think Nazi Germany had show trials? | ||
You don't think the USSR had show trials? | ||
They had show trials. | ||
They didn't just, you know, brutalize people and not give the rest of the public some sort of semblance of legality. | ||
Evil regimes always have to couch their actions in In the traditional language of the judicial system or the electoral system, whatever system they're operating in, they have to pretend. | ||
They have to play this game. | ||
That's all they're doing here. | ||
If they could, they would just shoot Trump in the head. | ||
Now would be the day, right? | ||
That'd be the end of it. | ||
But they know that they have humanity to deal with, and so they have to use a little bit of trickery to conceal their aggressive activities. | ||
So I think you're exactly right. | ||
As people look back on this in history, it's not going to be A question of whether or not Donald Trump really was a... | ||
It'll be obvious. It'll be obvious. | ||
Donald Trump is a threat to the political system. | ||
The political system is violating its own rules to destroy him. | ||
It's very simple. It's the activity of tyrants. | ||
It's the activity of despots. | ||
It hasn't changed since ancient Rome. | ||
So, there's that. | ||
And I completely agree with you, Daniel. | ||
Thank you for the call. Let's go now to John in Minneapolis. | ||
He wants to respond as well to Patty about the Trump trial. | ||
John in Minneapolis, thanks for calling in. | ||
unidentified
|
You're on the air. Hey, thanks, Harrison. | |
You know that Patty, dude? | ||
Yes? I've got a lot of friends that are Democrats and stuff. | ||
And, you know, you could have gave him a good rebuttal. | ||
But here's the thing about it. | ||
You can't argue with them. | ||
You have to just enlighten them. | ||
And he said something kind of critically. | ||
He said he was denying that we're going to get any on-the-fence questions. | ||
Voters from the Democrat pool. | ||
You know, and he's in a stage of denial. | ||
And that's the thing. | ||
Here's the trick that I use. | ||
I say, do you want to live in a country where the legal system works like this? | ||
Look at Trump's trials, all the different ones, and get into the detail of it and study it for yourself and then decide, do you want to vote for a system that works like that? | ||
What kind of country are we going to be living in? | ||
If you want to do that, be my guest. | ||
Let them make the decision. | ||
But once they get their eyes open to what's going on, we're going to have Democrats on our side too, I think. | ||
Because they're people. | ||
We have to have a forgiving kind of, you know, we have to give them a break on it. | ||
You know, I know. | ||
I'm married. My wife is a Democrat. | ||
But not anymore. | ||
You know, and she talks about her dad. | ||
Would your dad vote for this guy? | ||
Hell no, he wouldn't. | ||
Right, right. Well, and it's a matter of whether they sincerely believe the stuff they say or not. | ||
I mean, their whole thing is—I mean, they're Democrats, right? | ||
Their whole thing is democracy. Their whole thing is the will of the people. | ||
What we have now is a very small, hyper-elite group of— Federal officers and their donors who are attacking a populist president. | ||
I mean, if they're actually concerned about the death of democracy, they're watching it die in real time and they're cheering for the murderers. | ||
So if they can break through the programming that couches everything that's happening in the There's certain ways of phrasing things. | ||
As we showed with the New York Times reporter, the way that they couch things, it's always this rhetorical softening of what's really happening and hardening when they want to harden it, right? | ||
It's all about perception. | ||
It's about the tone they take, the words they use. | ||
They can give Democrats this sort of safety blanket that says, don't worry about what you're seeing right now. | ||
The professionals in charge, the experts are at the helm. | ||
They know what they're doing, and they're beautiful people. | ||
So don't worry about what you're seeing right now. | ||
Don't worry about the fact that we're rigging the election. | ||
We're not. We're just strictly adhering in an honorable and righteous way to the We're good to go. | ||
They're a lie. So if they can break through the programming that sort of hypnotizes them into allowing this to happen, then maybe we have a chance because... | ||
And look, I also voted for... | ||
I voted for Obama because of the things that he said. | ||
When I realized it was a trick and all a lie, I stopped being a Democrat because I actually firmly hold the beliefs that compelled me to vote for the people that claimed to uphold them, right? | ||
I actually wanted the war to end. | ||
And I was promised that Obama would end the war. | ||
When he instead ramped it up and started a war in Libya and started a war in Syria and founded ISIS and started drone bombing everybody, well, I didn't fall for the lie anymore. | ||
It was proven to be untrue. | ||
So these people are the typical Obama voters that vote for him because he promises to end war, and when instead he ramps up the war and makes it a robotic, automaton-led massacre, They don't care. | ||
They're just like, oh well, yeah, but it's Obama, so it's good. | ||
This war is good, actually. | ||
So they have no principles. | ||
They have no basic morals. | ||
They have no foundational beliefs. | ||
They only have sort of arbitrary, in the moment, completely manipulatable, malleable beliefs. | ||
And easily deceived perceptions of what's going on. | ||
So if people can see through the deception to the heart of what's actually happening here and they actually believe the things that they say about saving democracy and the will of the voters and the function of our democracy as it stands, our republic as it is, then they will vote in favor of Donald Trump even if it's just a protest vote against the corrupt system that is destroying everything. | ||
We've got time for one more quick call. | ||
We've got one minute left in the segment. | ||
Dan in Pittsburgh has called in about the Marine videos. | ||
He just seemed to change topics quickly here. | ||
Dan in Pittsburgh, you're on the air. | ||
unidentified
|
Thanks for calling in. Yeah, hi, Harrison. | |
That just really hit home for me. | ||
I'll try to be as quick as I can. | ||
I'm a Navy veteran. | ||
I was in years ago, so I am not familiar with today's military, but For somebody like that to be just left behind, if that makes sense, it was just sad. | ||
I broke down, man. I should not have... | ||
I know. | ||
I did too, man. | ||
It's heartbreaking. Especially when you see somebody like that. | ||
You can tell he's trying to hold it in. | ||
He's trying to get through it. | ||
No, it's heartbreaking, Dan. | ||
I completely agree. | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah, and you know, when I was in, a captain was a captain, and he made decisions. | |
He made decisions, exactly. It wasn't a bureaucracy sitting above him telling him, actually, go let your guys be killed. | ||
Powerful stuff. Thanks for that call, Dan. | ||
We'll be back on the other side with a video of Marjorie Taylor Greene taking Alejandro Mayorkas to task. | ||
Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. | ||
Mayorkas, we do not have a country without a secure border. | ||
And we cannot have a safe country. | ||
We cannot protect our own democracy without protecting our elections. | ||
That is a fact. The open border is the number one issue across America in poll after poll. | ||
And that is exactly why this committee impeached you. | ||
Mr. Secretary, the Oversight Project released a bombshell report last night on your connection to the dark money NGO industrial complex of illegal immigration. | ||
I know you saw this from one of my colleagues just earlier. | ||
They found flyers throughout the Resource Center Matamoros Refugee Camp in Mexico telling illegal aliens Reminder, to vote for President Biden when you are in the United States, we need another four years of his term to stay open. | ||
Eyewitnesses saw the flyers also being handed out to migrants who were using RCM for assistance in coming to the United States. | ||
In an audio recording, the founder of RCM, Gabby Zavala—by the way, we maybe should subpoena her to the committee— Before President Trump gets re-elected, RCM is an operation that houses functions for the Hebrew Immigrant Aid Society, which helps migrants enter the United States. | ||
And you're familiar with their work. | ||
We know that you served as a former board member of this group that funds illegal immigration. | ||
And they're very proud of you, Mr. | ||
Secretary. They congratulated you on your nomination. | ||
You worked as a board member of an NGO that is working in conjunction with other NGOs, which are not only financing the invasion of the country, but also telling illegal aliens to vote in the United States elections. | ||
They are telling illegal aliens, non-citizens, to come vote for Joe Biden. | ||
That's your boss. | ||
This is corruption at the deepest level. | ||
As a matter of fact, I would call it treason. | ||
It's treason because these people have declared war on our citizens by raping our women, our children, and murdering people. | ||
Like Lakin Riley. | ||
You're familiar with her, right? | ||
unidentified
|
Are you familiar with Lakin Riley? | |
I am familiar with the case. | ||
You should have deported her so that she could be alive today. | ||
Her parents would have appreciated that. | ||
And also Kayla Hamilton, who was brutally raped and murdered by a cartel member. | ||
Her mother came and spoke to us. | ||
She didn't deport him either. | ||
You let him in the country. You, Mr. | ||
Secretary, have allowed over 10 million illegals, probably higher than that, could be closer to 15 million, we don't know, to invade our country. | ||
You've allowed the cartels to make billions and billions. | ||
As a matter of fact, you're probably the best business partner they could ever have. | ||
They make all this money in human trafficking and drug trafficking at our border. | ||
You've allowed approximately 300 Americans to be murdered every single day from fentanyl that comes across our border. | ||
And now you're aiding NGOs to steal our elections through your budget. | ||
I demand proof of citizenship in our elections, and that is something every single member of Congress should care about. | ||
We don't need illegal aliens voting in our elections. | ||
We're supposed to be here talking about your budget, but we're talking about how money is being used to make sure people coming to our country are able to get a Social Security number in which they can register to vote. | ||
And on that note, Mr. | ||
Mayorkas, I demand that Chuck Schumer holds your impeachment trial in the Senate, because that's exactly what we should be focused on right now. | ||
Mr. Chairman, I yield the remainder of my time. | ||
House sends Mayorkas impeachment articles to the Senate forcing a trial. | ||
The House sent two articles of impeachment against Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas to the Senate on Tuesday forcing a trial on allegations that he has willfully and systematically refused to enforce immigration laws. | ||
It's a good start. It's a good start. | ||
I'll be satisfied when he's been tried for treason and given the punishment due to a treasonous person in our government. | ||
Impeach him first, but... | ||
Really just step one in solving this problem. | ||
Alright, welcome back. | ||
Ladies and gentlemen, we're connecting as we speak with Savannah Hernandez. | ||
We talked to her about what it was like to be on the ground there in New York City. | ||
The Trump trial. | ||
Although, as we wait for her, I do have a story here that is developing as we speak. | ||
Five minutes ago, Uri Berliner, or Uri Berliner, how do you pronounce that? | ||
U-R-I. Resigned from NPR. He has resigned from NPR. He is Uri. | ||
Yeah, Uri Berliner has resigned from NPR. It's been a bit of a process here. | ||
We covered the article that he wrote last week. | ||
Complaining about the collapse of journalistic integrity at the National Public Radio Station. | ||
And this story was from earlier today. | ||
NPR editor Yuri Berliner suspended after essay criticizing the network. | ||
NPR suspended senior editor Yuri Berliner for five days without pay after he wrote an essay accusing the network of losing the public's trust and appeared on a podcast to explain the argument. | ||
NPR has formally punished Yuri Berliner, the senior editor who publicly argued a week ago the network had lost America's trust by approaching news stories with a rigidly progressive mindset. | ||
Actually, I'm going to go ahead and drop a video in here because some videos have dropped recently of the new CEO of NPR, Catherine Mayer, talking about her role as CEO of Wikipedia and how she used her position To try to gain political benefits. | ||
But essentially, Yuri Berliner wrote an article saying, I've been an NPR contributor. | ||
I've been an NPR journalist for 20 years. | ||
I used to be very proud of what we did. | ||
We used to be unbiased, even though we had a slight liberal bent. | ||
We understood. Journalist integrity demanded that we told the story as it was for the benefit of all Americans. | ||
We're a public company. | ||
We are... We're good to go. | ||
I respect the integrity of my colleagues and wish for NPR to thrive and do important journalism, but I cannot work in a newsroom where I'm disparaged by a new CEO whose divisive views confirm the very problems at NPR I cite in my free press essay. | ||
This always happens, doesn't it? | ||
Doesn't this always happen? Somebody goes, you know, NPR sure is biased. | ||
They're not acting correctly. | ||
And then the new CEO, who is a hardcore leftist partisan, comes in and fires them, just proving he was right the entire time. | ||
It's a Kanye West-style situation we have going on here. | ||
Their reaction proves the complaint. | ||
It's pretty interesting. So I just put a video in there as we have that. | ||
Let's go now to Catherine Mayer, the new CEO of NPR, talking about her time as CEO of Wikipedia. | ||
unidentified
|
We took a very active approach to disinformation and misinformation coming into not just the last election, but also looking at how we supported our editing community in an unprecedented moment where we were not only dealing with a global pandemic, we were dealing with a novel virus, which by definition means we knew nothing about it in real time. | |
And we're trying to figure it out as the pandemic went along. | ||
And so we really set up in response to both the pandemic, but also in response to the upcoming U.S. election and as a model for future elections outside of the U.S., including a number that are happening this year. | ||
We just obviously went through yet another Israeli election. | ||
The model was around how do we create sort of a clearinghouse of information that brings the institution of the Wikimedia Foundation with the editing community. | ||
In order to be able to identify threats early on through conversations with government, of course, as well as other platform operators to understand what the landscape looks like. | ||
Yeah, yeah. We're just coordinating with the government to censor so-called mis- or disinformation from Wikipedia because of their political ideology because they don't actually believe in the First Amendment or free speech. | ||
What they believe in is massive but subtle censorship to, you know, conceal the fact that the information that you're getting is hyper-designed to push one belief above another, one belief that's not based off facts over another, that is. And now she's in charge of NPR. Wonderful. | ||
Isn't that great? Isn't it wonderful how... | ||
I mean, I hope you're learning the lesson, right? | ||
I hope you're getting the message that they're trying to send you. | ||
If you serve the government, if you violate the principles that America was founded on, and if you use your position of authority in order to manipulate the flow of information to benefit the Democrats, then you'll be rewarded and you'll be promoted and you'll be celebrated. | ||
Isn't that nice? Isn't that wonderful? | ||
Just despicable. | ||
So goodbye to NPR. We'll go to one more quick clip here, another little 30-second clip of Catherine Mayer, the new CEO of NPR, addressing the Atlantic Council about her time as editor of Wikipedia. | ||
unidentified
|
The number one challenge here that we see is, of course, the First Amendment in the United States is a fairly robust protection of rights, and that is a protection of rights both for platforms, which I actually think is very important that platforms have those rights. | |
To be able to regulate what kind of content they want on their sites. | ||
But it also means that it is a little bit tricky to really address some of the real challenges of where does bad information come from and sort of the influence peddlers who have made a real market economy around it. | ||
Yeah, that First Amendment, such a roadblock, such a dangerous thing to allow people to speak freely when you're trying to create internet ghettos in order to Isolate and destroy people saying things you don't want them to say. | ||
That First Amendment can be a real thorn in your side, can't it? | ||
And she, of course, is now the CEO of NPR, so congratulations to Yuri Berliner for escaping the clutches of this stupid witch. | ||
And I understand now we have connected with and are joined by the one and only Savannah Hernandez, who is in New York City. | ||
Sort of everything wrong in America all at once. | ||
Thanks for joining us, Savannah. | ||
unidentified
|
Thanks for having me, Harrison. | |
Always good to be on the American Journal, one of my favorite shows. | ||
Always a pleasure. And I know we were talking earlier in the weekend and you were like, yeah, I'm on a flight to New York City. | ||
And I was thinking, oh, she's going on vacation. | ||
You must be going there to visit and have fun. | ||
Oh, what a fool I was. | ||
Of course you were going there to confront illegal immigrants and cover news stories and protests and everything. | ||
I mean, this is sort of a microcosm, right? | ||
You've got the illegal immigrant chaos going on while simultaneously you have Trump on trial in a totally unfair proceeding. | ||
I mean, New York City right now is like the epicenter of the collapse of America. | ||
Did you see that while you were on the ground? | ||
unidentified
|
Oh, absolutely. I'm actually in between different cities as we speak, which is why I'm not on Skype. | |
And we're in Queens right now because we're going to be documenting today the prostitution crisis that is currently going on due to the illegal immigration over here. | ||
I'm also hearing word that there's several black markets where illegal immigrants can come and buy passports or they can buy Social Security cards. | ||
They can even buy proof of residency so they can have access to the resources That the other migrants who have been through the system had access to. | ||
So it's a complete and utter mess over here, and we can get into so many different angles, right? | ||
We want to talk about the thousands of African migrants who flooded City Hall in New York yesterday, or the fact that you had, you know, pro-Palestinian protesters that were trying to shut down the Brooklyn Bridge. | ||
I mean, New York is just—there's always something going on here. | ||
It's always exciting, I would say, but more than anything, it's like— The degradation of America just encapsulated, truly. | ||
You know what? I totally forgot about the giant protest that also brought New York to a standstill on there. | ||
Yeah, it's really every aspect of the collapse of America on display. | ||
And, of course, you've been getting some incredible footage. | ||
People can find it on your Twitter at sav underscore says underscore. | ||
And is it savannahhernandez.com, right, is your website? | ||
Where, of course, you're doing on-the-ground reporting all over the place at sav underscore says underscore. | ||
But there's also some kind of fun instances. | ||
I know one of them is the kids in Harlem shouting out Trump when he visited a bodega. | ||
Let's go to clip 19 real quick, and I want to get your comments on the other side. | ||
But here's Trump visiting a bodega in Harlem. | ||
unidentified
|
I love you, Trump! | |
I love you, Trump! | ||
We love Trump! | ||
So just massive crowds outside of a bodega in Harlem chanting "We love Trump." So with all of the chaos and degradation and destruction of America, is there also a glimmer of hope, Savannah? | ||
unidentified
|
I would have to say so. | |
I mean, again, I'm seeing the worst parts of New York, but seeing all of these videos of Donald Trump in Harlem yesterday were a really nice white pill, right? | ||
It's a reminder that there is one person in our country that is willing to take on the deep state, the swamp, if you will, and actually clean up the issues that all of us see and all of us call out, but the government refuses to pay attention to, or I guess even further allows to happen. | ||
You know to further the decline of the United States of America So I think it is really nice to know that there is one soul man out there really really working for the people Yeah, of course they're trying to destroy him now You know, there are these videos, you know, one of them was posted. Hundreds of illegals from Africa who don't speak any English are currently protesting outside City Hall and demanding more free handouts. | ||
You know, just like the founders intended, Savannah. | ||
So, you know, obviously they're going to be, you know, in one position, but... | ||
Are you talking to regular people on the street in New York and what's just the overall vibe of what's going on? | ||
I have the feeling, you know, people in New York just sort of walk right by this like they walk by everything, right? | ||
There's always chaos in New York City and the people in New York just sort of have blinders on and don't care about what's going on around them. | ||
But were you able to talk to New Yorkers? | ||
Were you able to get a sense of what the average person was feeling about all this? | ||
unidentified
|
Oh, absolutely. I've been talking to New Yorkers, and they've been extremely upset about the situation. | |
A lot of them have been very vocal. | ||
And in front of the city center where I was at, it was called St. | ||
Bridges. This was in the East Village area. | ||
And it was a former Catholic school that they repurposed to basically turn into a reprocessing center, right? | ||
So these migrants get kicked out of hotels after 30 days because Eric Adams was letting them stay indefinitely. | ||
Now, after 30 days, they get kicked out. | ||
They go to the center, and then they can basically just get put into a new hotel. | ||
So there's a long line of African single men, by the way, in front of this old church. | ||
And this woman walks by, and she's screaming at them. | ||
She's calling them legal. | ||
She's saying they shouldn't be here. | ||
And I go up and ask her, well, why is she so upset how she's feeling as a New Yorker? | ||
And she says, oh, honey, you have no idea how bad it's gotten. | ||
I tried to interview her, and she said, I'm in mourning. | ||
I don't want to be interviewed. | ||
Do not record me. | ||
My granddaughter was just murdered by an illegal. | ||
Oh, my God. | ||
Yeah, so it's been really heartbreaking to see the real-world aspect of the migration crisis here in New York, because I think oftentimes we're reading headlines, we see the stories, but when you meet people in person, right, if you really see the people impacted by this crisis in terms of murders, in terms of the crime rates, it's a completely different story, and it's absolutely heartbreaking. | ||
And then outside of that same exact location, I just posted this video to my Twitter about two minutes ago. | ||
There was an illegal immigrant from Russia who walked out singing, I got a free plane ticket to Chicago. | ||
I leave tomorrow. | ||
We got this clip yesterday, and this guy was so excited because he was able to walk into the center. | ||
He was living in New York illegally for a year, and he was able to walk into the city center, get a free ticket to Chicago, and then he explained as well, yeah, I might go to Los Angeles after. | ||
I'll also be able to get a ticket for free if I want to do that. | ||
And by the way, Harrison, I would just like to point out that This isn't just free tickets that the city of New York is handing out throughout the United States of America. | ||
They can go anywhere in the world with this program. | ||
My God. Okay. | ||
Yeah, I mean it just goes on and on and I'm excited but nervous about whatever footage you're gonna capture today because I know that there have been a lot of stories and many of them suppressed about some of the migrant basically colonies they've built and how an entire black market ecosystem has sprung up around there. | ||
So when you talk about prostitution or selling illegal goods or selling goods that were stolen Yeah, I have the feeling you're going to get some pretty bombshell stuff later today. | ||
I just hope you stay safe doing it. | ||
But let's shift topic a little bit. | ||
Were you there at the courthouse? | ||
And what was the mood around the courthouse for the Trump trial like? | ||
I mean, what was the overall atmosphere there? | ||
Because as you point out, we can read stories and watch footage from inside the courtroom or hear New York Times on CNN talking about it. | ||
But you're there on the ground, which I think is incredibly valuable to get a sense of just what it's like there. | ||
What was it like at the Trump trial? | ||
unidentified
|
Absolutely. And I love that we can switch so effortlessly between all of these different stories. | |
New York is just a madhouse this week because, you're right, the trial of Donald Trump also ongoing. | ||
And I was there on Monday with Laura Loomer. | ||
And I was here a year ago when he had to turn himself in when he was initially arrested, right? | ||
And that's when we saw those big protests last year. | ||
We saw a lot of those viral clips of these insane leftists who were just coming out in full force celebrating the arrest of Donald Trump. | ||
Now, this year was very different. | ||
Day one, when they were doing that jury selection, there was the tiniest crowd of left-wing agitators there. | ||
I want to honestly say there was eight to ten people max. | ||
On the Trump side, of course, you have... | ||
Anytime there's any type of Trump trial, Trump rally, anything, you're going to attract a crowd of people, no matter where it's at. | ||
And so, if anything, I think that this is just the juxtaposition of the left-wing, their entire... | ||
movement is manufactured and you really see that with the energy that's expelled and to be quite honest I feel like the entire media kind of diverted these left-wing activists for the Palestine protest right now and so they're all over there in Wall Street trying to shut it down but meanwhile Trump has such great support he has such great energy behind him and And again, you know, I've seen this on Twitter so many times. | ||
It's like, you can't buy that type of luck. | ||
You can't buy that type of support. | ||
Joe Biden was trying to hold a rally in, what, his hometown yesterday? | ||
And it looks like a freaking bingo time at your local retirement home. | ||
Yeah, exactly, exactly. | ||
And then Donald Trump, his trial, we know we're not even going to be able to see a peek of this man because he's been... | ||
It's freaking show trial, but people are still out there in numbers, and of course, the energy surrounding the man is palpable, as we saw via the videos in Harlem yesterday. | ||
That's so true. | ||
Just unbelievably true. | ||
And I was even just thinking about last time I went to New York City with Owen sort of early on when I first joined Infowars. | ||
And there was a women's march and it was like eerily quiet. | ||
It was like nobody was chanting, nobody was cheering until Owen and I would shout something and then they would all shout back and then they would get fired up. | ||
But yeah, there's something about these leftist protesters or agitators or whatever they are. | ||
It's like they really have to be told what to do. | ||
They have to be told where to go. | ||
They have to be told to be excited and to be loud. | ||
Otherwise, they're just like quietly marching like zombies. | ||
I remember it actually being creepy because it's this huge crowd of people and none of them are saying anything. | ||
Everybody's just sort of We're good to go. | ||
unidentified
|
I wasn't able to attend any of that. | |
I did see a lot of the footage. | ||
We have other reporters here that I work with that were on the ground. | ||
And of course, it's your typical left-wing educators that are there trying to set things down, trying to raise awareness to global issues by being a huge pain in the ass to everybody in the United States that actually goes to work for a living. | ||
So, you know, that was kind of the vibe there. | ||
Mostly what I've been touching in on is of course that immigration issue and The trials of Trump. | ||
And it's just been, it's been electric here in New York, I would say, for the past week. | ||
There's so much going on. | ||
And again, I think that people do really need to look to New York, especially with Donald Trump being back here, right? | ||
Because it's like, okay, do you want an America that is overrun by illegal immigrants that are consistently begging for handouts, that are adding to the surge in crime rates? | ||
That are adding to city streets being more safe for our children, or would you like to pick the America where your president walks into your bodega and is like, hey, I am so sorry that you were also targeted by the same corrupt justice system that I was. | ||
I'm going to stand for you and speak for you. | ||
Because America, take a peek at New York and figure out which path you want to take. | ||
Seriously. And just talking about the migrants, were you able, you know, you talked to this one guy, and I just dropped the video on the folder. | ||
Maybe we can go to it here. | ||
It's a minute and 20 seconds long. | ||
But I wonder, did you talk to illegal immigrants? | ||
And what were they saying? | ||
Because we know that at least a few months ago, last time it was reported, it was like 2% of the people in the hotel or the illegal immigrants in New York had even applied for a work permit. | ||
They hadn't even gotten them. But it wasn't like... | ||
You know, 100% of them were going, we just want to work, we want a good job. | ||
Only 2% of them even applied. | ||
The rest of them were just happy to live off of handouts. | ||
Were you able to talk to any immigrants about, you know, what they want from America and what their vision of America is? | ||
Were you able to talk to immigrants at all other than this video of the guy who got the ticket to Chicago? | ||
unidentified
|
Yes, I have been talking to as many as I could. | |
Now, keep in mind that a lot of the migrants that I've been surrounded by, the new wave, are all from Guinea, they're from Africa, many of them speaking French. | ||
So, of course, I brought a Spanish translator with me, and now I can't talk to any of them because they all speak French now. | ||
But the migrants that we did speak to expressed to us that I mean, some of them want to work. | ||
The main question that I've been asking, too, is, you know, we have an election coming up. | ||
Has anybody instructed you on how to vote in the 2024 election? | ||
What do you think about the 2024 election? | ||
And it's really varied. | ||
Also interesting, this interview will be coming out within the next couple of days, but I interviewed a migrant who was telling me that he knows that it was Joe Biden that opened up the border and allowed him, and he's grateful for it. | ||
Simultaneously, he says that the Democratic Party does not do any good for America, and if he could vote, he would vote for Donald Trump. | ||
And I said, even if he deports you, and he goes, yes. | ||
It was very strange. Wow. | ||
Yeah, CNN also got one of these interviews, and I remember watching it on Twitter, and I was like, that's really interesting. | ||
I don't understand that mindset. | ||
And I actually got the same type of interview. | ||
So it's interesting to see. | ||
And then, again, you know, we go and speak to the next group, and the next group is like, oh, Donald Trump is the white devil. | ||
He's Satan. He hates people. | ||
You need to get him out of office. | ||
He's, you know, a stain on America. | ||
So it really varies depending on the person, I would say. | ||
That is so interesting. | ||
I mean, but it sort of makes sense, doesn't it? | ||
It's like, yeah, that guy let me in. | ||
You know, what an idiot. | ||
What an idiot that guy is. | ||
He's not looking out for you. | ||
He let me in. He didn't even ask questions. | ||
That's pretty brilliant. | ||
That's one guy, hey, give that guy a green card. | ||
Maybe we can just make this whole thing political. | ||
You vote for Trump, you get into America. | ||
Joking, obviously. But You know, there's stories like this. | ||
Blue City Mayor defunds police force by more than 8 million to aid migrants, I think. | ||
And this is about Denver, but it sort of sums everything up. | ||
Is crime a big issue you're hearing about in New York? | ||
unidentified
|
Oh, absolutely. I was just reading a story the other day about how over the past few years, there's been a 20% surge in attacks on NYPD police officers. | |
And, I mean, let's kind of just fill in the blanks here. | ||
What else has been happening over the past few years in New York? | ||
Since 2022, let's say, 175,000 illegal immigrants have made their way over here. | ||
They haven't assimilated and they've been living off in the city. | ||
We've seen the multiple headlines of NYPD police officers beat up by illegal immigrants, were shot by illegal immigrants. | ||
So, you know, I'm going to go ahead and make a wild assumption here and say that maybe the migrants that should not be in this country are a big problem in terms of the crime rate. | ||
Maybe these things are related. | ||
And of course, it also has to do with the Black Lives Matter and the Reimagining Justice. | ||
What a crazy time. | ||
Well, thank you so much for calling. | ||
I know you're very busy. Thank you for squeezing us in and stay safe out there. | ||
And I can't wait to see what you come up with next. | ||
Savannah Hernandez, everyone. | ||
unidentified
|
All right, folks. Welcome back. | |
I got some stories to tell you here in the last half of this hour. | ||
Infowarsstore.com is how you support us. | ||
It's the Harrison Smith Mental Health Fund. | ||
Infowarsstore.com. | ||
Try to keep me sane. | ||
It's becoming more difficult. | ||
The ground is becoming shaky. | ||
Everything is just absolutely crazy. | ||
We're going to show you some videos now that might just snuff out that last little spark of hope you had for humanity. | ||
I don't like doing it, but that's what we're going to do. | ||
You know, there's other ways to support us. | ||
Free ways. Sharing the information. | ||
This is an information war, after all. | ||
The battlefield is your mind and the mind of your friends and family and neighbors and followers on social media. | ||
Share the links. Share the information. | ||
Copy down the videos. | ||
Re-upload them. Edit them yourself. | ||
Make money with them. Who cares? | ||
We just want this information out there. | ||
It's all free to air. It's all copyright free. | ||
And we produce 10 hours of it a day at least. | ||
That's not even counting Bandai Video with the numerous incredible content creators we have there. | ||
So go to Bandai Video. | ||
Go to Infowars.com. | ||
Share the link. Share the story. | ||
Share the videos. And we really cannot say how much we appreciate it. | ||
And I want to give a special shout-out, a particular shout-out to Modern Warfare with Alex Jones at AlexJonesMW3OnX. | ||
He's been a huge supporter of Alex Jones for a while. | ||
He basically plays, although I think he plays a different video game now, but his concept of circumventing censorship was, I'll just do a Twitch channel where I play video games, but the audio will be The Alex Jones Show. | ||
And he keeps getting deleted, and he keeps making new channels. | ||
He's a great follow, and I wanted to give a special shout-out to him because he's the reason that we were able to get Ian Carroll on yesterday. | ||
I noticed that Ian Carroll and he followed each other, so I reached out to Modern Warfare with Alex Jones and asked if he could politely request that Ian Carroll hit me up so we could talk about the EGLE 2 documents. | ||
So just thank you to all of the independent journalists, independent citizen activists out there that help us in a variety of different ways. | ||
But a special thank you to Modern Warfare with Alex Jones for his particular dedication to the cause. | ||
And it's been an extremely effective one. | ||
And he's sort of just chugged along for the last couple years, just helping to push the message out. | ||
He's been a great resource because he's always posting sort of archival videos of Alex Jones or archival videos about the New World Order. | ||
And so he's a great follow for that reason. | ||
Then recently he got a big boost because he had a couple of posts go viral. | ||
Thanks in part to Alex Jones retweeting him. | ||
And then of course, immediately the Twitter censorship hammer came down and they've crushed his reach recently. | ||
And even though people were finding him and subscribing to him or following him and posting his stuff, Twitter made sure to put a damper on that. | ||
So he's been having trouble recently getting attention to his feed, attention that he thoroughly So please do go follow at AlexJonesMW3ModernWarfareWithAlexJones. | ||
And again, a special thank you to him for helping me get the great guest we had yesterday, as well as provide a number of stories that I've covered over the years, because he does post very good stuff on a continual basis. | ||
So thank you to Modern WarfareWithAlexJones. | ||
All right. We go to a video here, and it's a pretty common style of video, but it seems like they get worse and worse every time we see them. | ||
This one from Fleckis Talks. | ||
He goes out and he asks young people simple questions, and they give absurd answers. | ||
unidentified
|
Let's watch. Originally. | |
Where's the Queen of England from? | ||
unidentified
|
I definitely don't know. | |
Give me your best guess. | ||
Guess a country. What is a country again? | ||
Do you know what country the Panama Canal is in? | ||
No. If you have to guess, what do you think it sounds like it's in? | ||
Guess a country. Europe? | ||
Yes. Do you know how many moons the Earth has? | ||
unidentified
|
Around how many, if you had to guess? | |
Two? | ||
Yes. | ||
Do you know what time this is? | ||
Last time I was thinking this year. | ||
5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 2, 45. | ||
Yes. Do you know what country the Great Wall of China is in? | ||
Country? Yeah. Maybe you have to guess. | ||
Japanese? Yes. | ||
Do you know what the third month of each year is? | ||
Ain't that leap year or something? | ||
Ain't that a leap year? | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah. Do you know what 15% of 100 is? | |
Around what it is, if you had to guess. | ||
Probably like 75. | ||
I don't know. Probably. Yes. | ||
Can you name all the months? September, January, February, March, April, May, June, July, August. | ||
Yes. Do you know what 7 plus 7 plus 7 is? | ||
28. No, no, no, I'm bugging. | ||
14 plus 7. | ||
I don't know. What do we call a shape with five sides? | ||
Is it an octagon? | ||
Wait, that's six. That's eight. | ||
Octagon is eight. Is it a stop sign? | ||
I hadn't seen that last answer. | ||
I say the same thing every time. | ||
I think the same thing every time I see one of those videos. | ||
These people, they aren't overthrowing anything. | ||
What I would love to see, because it's not just about calling young people stupid. | ||
It's obviously about the education system utterly failing to provide even the most basic training in logic and comprehension. | ||
And that's the real issue here, right? | ||
Is that they don't even know what the question even means. | ||
She said the Great Wall of China is in the country of Japanese. | ||
Yeah, you know, they think Europe is a country. | ||
They don't know where the Queen of England is from. | ||
They don't know what Utah is. | ||
Still my favorite answer from all of that. | ||
But what I would really love to see would be to ask these same people After you ask them the simple, obvious questions that they don't know the answer to, I would then ask them about their political affiliation. | ||
I'd want to know if they vote, and if they do vote, who they vote for, and how they feel about it. | ||
I can pretty much guarantee you, despite the fact that these people know literally nothing about She thinks stop sign is a shape, okay? | ||
unidentified
|
So this is... | |
I mean, I have a one-year-old who knows what shapes are. | ||
She tries to eat rocks all the time. | ||
I just... | ||
But I bet if you ask them, you know, what their opinion on is, whether or not... | ||
You know, there's how many genders there are. | ||
I bet they have a very forthright and forceful answer. | ||
And that might be the real issue with all of this. | ||
I don't mind dumb people. | ||
I like dumb people actually. | ||
You can't trust smart people. | ||
They'll trick you. Dumb people are nice as far as I've experienced. | ||
I don't mind dumb people. I don't think you need to be a genius or go to university to have value as a person. | ||
I think a lot of times in a weird sort of reverse way, studying a lot, I mean, a lot of ways it takes you away from like just basic common sense that seems to be more prevalent in lower income areas, whatever it is, like places that aren't well-educated tend to actually have better basic logic. | ||
But maybe the real issue here is humility. | ||
Maybe it's fine that our people are dumb if they're humble enough to say, look, I don't know. | ||
I don't know any better, but I just have a feeling. | ||
I have an inkling. That if you were to get in a political conversation with these people that don't know what shape a stop sign is or where the Queen of England is from, I have a feeling that they would be very passionate and forceful in their opinions when it comes to politics. | ||
Maybe it's a matter of humility that we're missing. | ||
Maybe it's not an intellectual problem, it's a spiritual one. | ||
Alright folks, I've got a couple of late-breaking stories to bring you here in the final segment of the American Journal. | ||
First of all, Boston Dynamics has announced and premiered a new humanoid robot. | ||
They've retired their old legendary human robot. | ||
There's been a lot of videos of this robot over the years doing pretty incredible feats of physicality. | ||
Doing flips, walking upstairs, jumping, I mean, just doing all sorts of, you know, kind of terrifying things. | ||
But they've announced a new robot, Boston Dynamics Atlas Humanoid Robot Goes Electric. | ||
The day after retiring the hydraulic model, Boston Dynamics CEO discusses the company's commercial humanoid ambitions. | ||
They decided to premiere this with a video... | ||
That I assume they instructed the robot to be as creepy as possible. | ||
It's a little weird the way they decided to premiere this robot. | ||
I guess in a way I'm glad they're not trying to make it seem fluffy and innocent. | ||
I'm glad they're sort of highlighting the inhumanness of this machine. | ||
It seems like if you were trying to get people used to the idea of humanoid robots living and working with you, you'd want to make them soft and cuddly and not look like terrifying metal skeletons that are animated through necromancy. | ||
But that's what it looks like here. | ||
Let's go to the video now. | ||
Here's a Boston Dynamics new Atlas robot getting up from the floor in just the weirdest way it possibly could. | ||
It's lying on the ground like a dead person. | ||
Good start. Here it bends its hips entirely backwards and, like a scene from The Exorcist, rises up, twists its head a full 180 degrees before its body follows. | ||
Wow, isn't science amazing? | ||
It really is impressive. | ||
It really does look like a droid from Star Wars. | ||
But just why? Why have it stand up like that? | ||
I don't know. | ||
I don't understand. But coming to a police department near you soon. | ||
Very strange. | ||
Very strange way they decided to unveil this new machine. | ||
But there it is. Creepy. | ||
Very creepy. Very exciting for the New World Order, as we know from there. | ||
What we could call the New World Order practice zone, aka Gaza. | ||
Yeah, that's exactly what we're seeing here for the television viewers. | ||
You know, Gaza is sort of the testing zone for some of these more horrific anti-human programs, and we know not only do they have gates guarded by automatic robotic machine guns with camera lenses attached and a license to kill, | ||
which in and of itself should give you a We're good to go. | ||
They actually had a program called Lavender that used social media and other biometric information to determine whether or not you were likely a Hamas member. | ||
And then they had another threat matrix that they would apply to that to determine how high up in Hamas you maybe were, if you even were. | ||
They don't even know. They got it right sometimes and got it wrong sometimes. | ||
Didn't matter. The bombs dropped regardless. | ||
Then they had a calculus that determined how many innocent people they could kill alongside you. | ||
And then they had another program called Where's Daddy that was used to target Hamas members at their home so they could take out the entire family at the same time. | ||
This is the unrelenting robotic evil that we're dealing with. | ||
And wouldn't it be convenient and won't it be convenient in the very near future when you have this all algorithmically dictated and you have robots who totally autonomously access a database of People who oppose the New World Order in one form or another, | ||
or at least seem like they do, or at least give off the biometric signature that they might, and then the robots, without any interference from the humans, simply go out and execute the orders to search and destroy completely autonomously. | ||
Won't it be a nice, you know, easy life for the globalists when they can relax, served by robots at home, controlled by robots, Dictating their actions through algorithms and anybody who stands up against them is simply entered into the robotic kill list and the database is systematically eliminated. | ||
Won't that be nice for the globalists once they're in charge? | ||
It's coming. And these types of robots will be instrumental in this process. | ||
Now, moving on. | ||
Oh God, they've slowed it down. | ||
It's also creepy. It is also incredibly creepy. | ||
In a variety of different ways. | ||
It's like, I guess they're just embracing it. | ||
You know, it's kind of this, was it the valley of death? | ||
What do they call it? Where the more realistic something is, the creepier it is. | ||
Uncanny Valley. Yeah, I guess there's an uncanny valley aspect to it where when they try to make the robots look innocent and fun, it only is creepier. | ||
So now they're just going, they're just embracing the creepiness. | ||
They're like, you know what, instead of trying to make it dance and look like a ballerina and freaking everybody out, let's just have it do with a contortionist routine from The Exorcist and just fully embrace the creepiness that we're... | ||
Delving into. Okay, moving on. | ||
Moving on from the robotic nightmare that is rapidly approaching to the judicial nightmare we're already in. | ||
From trending politics, Jack Smith and DOJ have been destroyed by SCOTUS justices during argument on a crucial statute that they're pursuing. | ||
Both liberal and conservative justices on the U.S. Supreme Court voiced skepticism about special counsel Jack Smith's interpretation of a constitutional clause, which he's held up in defending his decision to charge former President Donald Trump and hundreds of J6 attendees with obstruction. | ||
During oral arguments, justices opined on Smith's interpretation of USC 1512, which covers tampering of witnesses and evidence. | ||
Over two hours, it was unclear whether a majority opinion was surfacing, but it was suggested that Smith will continue to struggle to defend his prosecution. | ||
Justice Clarence Thomas, a conservative, described the January 6, 2021 events as a violent protest, but contended that there have been many similar instances that have interfered with proceedings. | ||
Thomas questioned whether the Department of Justice had explored obstruction charges in those cases, which, of course, the answer is no. | ||
The answer is absolutely not. | ||
The answer, like the one Patty gave about Trump being able to campaign during this crucial time in the presidential election, They made an exception. | ||
They made an exception in this case. | ||
It's called selective enforcement of laws and it's a signature of tyrannical regimes the world over for all of time. | ||
You can have the same law and you apply it to one type of person and not another. | ||
That's tyranny. That's despotism. | ||
That is a fundamental violation of the purpose of the Department of Justice. | ||
But That's fine in today's world, because remember, they're fighting Nazis, and so the rules are out of the window. | ||
Justice Gorsuch had a funny question, saying, would a heckler in today's audience qualify? | ||
Or at the State of the Union address? | ||
Would pulling a fire alarm before a vote qualify for 20 years in prison? | ||
Making a not-so-subtle allusion to Democratic Congressman Jamal Bowen's decision to pull a fire alarm before a congressional vote. | ||
He says, Justice Samuel Alito hypothesized, | ||
according to Politico. And remember, on January 6th, the proceedings were only delayed a few hours. | ||
So are they saying that the difference between five minutes and two hours is enough to send somebody to prison for 20 years? | ||
It's completely arbitrary. | ||
Their entire position is utterly unjustified by the reality of what occurred on January 6th or any time since or before then. | ||
She says, we've never had a situation before where there's been a situation like this with people attempting to stop a proceeding violently, so I'm not sure what the lack of history proves. | ||
Of course, this has happened before, and of course, the violence came from the police first and foremost. | ||
So this is the insane thing about this. | ||
I don't know how many times we have to go over this. | ||
The purpose of the January 6th protest was in support of the proceedings. | ||
Was because we wanted the proceedings to continue as intended. | ||
The police started the violence. | ||
The crowd responded. | ||
The crowd was entirely unviolent, had no intention to ever stop the proceedings. | ||
And in fact, the proceedings stopping is the one thing that stopped Trump from having a fair say in the election as the election that should have been stopped got certified. | ||
