It is an alien from a distant star system coming here and taking us over.
It's the scientists.
And you've got to hand it to them.
I mean, they came up with the internet plan in the 50s, the intergalactic communication system, and they described when they declassified it in 61, the whole plan.
This is the board.
This says you will assimilate.
Resistance is futile.
You will be absorbed.
unidentified
Why do you resist?
We only wish to raise quality of life for all species.
alex jones
I like my species the way it is.
So you have to understand the aliens are here and it's a spiritual infestation of humans to then go out and wage war against not just other humans but all life On Earth, built by God.
This is a war against God's creation.
And you can pretend that's not what it is.
You can go along with the system and think you're gonna work in the system and be powerful and rule people.
The only rebellion Satan could engage in would be to go against God.
Not to try to be God, but to be the anti-God.
And they are establishing a system with unlimited finance to dismantle everything wholesome and everything good and replace it with a nightmare system where they are promised eternal life In the silicon, Ib, they will destroy the third dimension.
And because life came out of God's third dimension, they intend to overthrow the third dimension.
Interdimensional overthrow.
And the creating of cyberspace, metaverse, hell, where the metaverse swallows reality.
The energy force coming out of it is the lowest resonance that can even be imagined.
You can't even imagine it.
So when you see the globalists, you are seeing captured souls that by exercise of ritual in the real world carrying out crimes against God, crimes against humanity, God's creation, have separated themselves by choice so that they can receive the satanic transmission to carry out their God's directives.
The system wants to make people desperate, they want to put VR goggles on children at birth, they want to chemically damage them and attack their DNA transceiver capability, which is now mainline science, that's what it is, to cut you off from the space winds, from the magnetic forces, from the ether that the Holy Spirit transmits through, so they can be so isolated
And then by increment, sin, which means going against God's program, to be prepared at an industrial scale to lose their soul to the black hole.
The entering hell and the black hole is a spinning centrifuge, top and bottom.
And then when you enter in to that gate, You then go into the new dimension created by Satan via his free will, and you are now in that domain.
And so everything going on on the third dimension is a staging ground to prepare you to be sent to that place.
And you do not want to go there, and you do not want to see it.
But from the bottom of my heart, I want you to know God loves you.
And a lot of you are listening that are Satanist and serve the devil.
And you know that you are slaves.
And you know that what you were promised, you've not been given.
And you know that the more you go along with this, the more lonely and betrayed you are.
And if you have any desire to know God, all you have to do is reach out to Christ and say, Christ, come into me, cover me with the blood.
Help me be a good person.
I ask via free will for you to save me.
I can't do it.
I know that you are everything.
Please, please protect me and sanctify me and purify me and I will pick up the cross and I will follow you and I will be persecuted by this world.
But that is my choice, and I take it willingly.
harrison smith
Good morning, ladies and gentlemen.
That is the latest from John Bowne and, of course, the great Alex Jones.
The satanic interdimensional overthrow explained.
Find and share that at band.video and infowars.com.
Sorry, I just got the hiccups this morning.
I'm trying to clear them out in the next minute during this break and we'll be back on the other side with your Daily Dispatch.
We're going to be talking a lot about immigration in Europe today.
It's getting bad, folks.
I think it's reaching a fever pitch on both sides.
Mass stabbings taking place in Europe, as well as a mass pushback and huge swell of grassroots opposition to the migrant crisis.
Stay tuned.
unidentified
It's a big one.
It's Wednesday, May 29th 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.
I think it's time to close.
harrison smith
Good morning, ladies and gentlemen.
Welcome to the American Journal.
I'm your host, Harrison Smith.
We have a lot to talk about today.
Today is the day.
Donald Trump's fate may very well be decided.
We will of course get into that.
It will be decided by the end of our show.
I believe the timeline is that the judge will begin final jury instructions at 10 a.m.
Eastern.
So that'll be about in an hour.
And so certainly it won't, they won't have come to a decision by 11 a.m.
So we'll speculate a little bit.
But it could be today that the jury decides the fate of Donald Trump and, in a way, the fate of all of us.
The question of whether America still exists as a functional republic comes down to the morality and honor of 12 random New Yorkers.
So we might be screwed here, folks.
We might be screwed.
I don't know, maybe, maybe not, but we'll see.
We'll talk about, you know, what each eventuality may entail.
We'll take your calls on that topic, but we also have a lot of global news to get into.
Continuing fallout from the ongoing invasion of Rafah by Israel, as they just obliterate red line after red line.
And we're going to talk quite a bit about immigration into Europe and the invasion of that continent.
Not by choice.
Good Lord, it's unpleasant to discuss, but we will.
We'll get into it because for some reason today.
It's been a lot.
There's been a lot of stuff on both sides.
There is a giant pushback, a groundswell.
Grassroots opposition to the migrant crisis and activists becoming emboldened as the situation gets more desperate.
And we've got videos of mass stabbings out of France and other places as well.
So it just, it just so happens.
And there's a lot of migrant news out of Europe today.
So we'll do a big segment on that, but let's begin today as we do every day with our daily dispatch.
Alright, here it is, folks, your Daily Dispatch for Wednesday, the 29th of May, 2024.
Judgment Day looms for Donald Trump in New York.
Donald Trump, who built a mystique as a brash epitome of power, has never been more powerless to dictate his own fate.
Yes, what is one man against the crushing weight of system-wide tyranny?
Yeah, so they have a completely inverted view of this entire case.
House's destiny will on Wednesday be placed in the hands of 12 citizens of his native New York City, proving that not even once and possibly future commanders in chief are above the law.
Yeah, so they have a completely inverted view of this entire case.
We'll get into why there's absolutely no reason anybody can come up with for a guilty verdict.
We'll show you a video of CNN of one of their legal analysts, one of the far left CNN's legal analysts, pointing out that just the entire case is baseless in any reasonable system.
This would have been thrown out a long time ago.
But to these people, it's inverted.
It's a question of whether the president is above the law or not.
And if he's not convicted, it means the law has failed.
Pretty ridiculous.
And we'll show you exactly why.
Meanwhile, U.S.
officials say deadly Rafa airstrike did not cross Biden's red line.
And the question is, would anything, I guess.
The deaths were devastating, a White House spokesperson said, on the scale, the scale of attack was not enough to change U.S.
policy.
He only killed 45 children, not 50.
50, oh boy, you would have seen trouble.
But 45 children, I mean, whatever, who cares, right?
The bloodshed came after Mr. Biden warned earlier this month that the United States would block certain arms transfers.
We will not actively rearm you if you keep killing people and target the populated areas in Rafah.
And then they did, and then nothing happened.
So, same old, same old.
Israel gets to do whatever it wants, massacre as many people as it possibly can, and America sits here being humiliated time and time again as every one of our red lines is crossed, and then to save face, we pretend like we I don't actually care when in reality it's horrible.
It's happening and we should care.
unidentified
We should.
harrison smith
But not only are we not doing anything to push back, as Israel does repeatedly violate red lines set by the American administration, They're doing it with our weapons.
U.S.-made munitions used in deadly strike on Rafah tent camp, CNN analysis shows.
Munitions made in the United States were used in the deadly Israeli strike on a displacement camp in Rafah on Sunday, a CNN analysis of the video from a scene in a review of an explosive weapon expert found.
At least 45 people were killed and more than 200 injured.
After they bombed a refugee camp in...
Rafa with American weapons, and America says that's fine with us.
Meanwhile, a massive explosion rocks Chase Bank building in Ohio.
Surveillance cameras captured the moment a Chase Bank in downtown Youngstown, Ohio, was rocked by an explosion Tuesday, leading to multiple injuries.
Local media reports that the incident happened around 3 p.m., with crews working to rescue people from the rubble and evacuate residents from apartments in the floors above the bank.
It was a massive explosion, and we still await any Confirmation one way or the other about what caused it.
We return to that later.
Finally we have this.
Conscription is coming back to Europe.
While several countries are reintroducing compulsory military service, some EU politicians would welcome uniform reintroduction across the EU.
Professional armies are understaffed across the continent, as more and more European countries are recognizing.
In recent weeks, not only EU leaders, but also the leadership of the German Christian Democratic Party has brought up the idea of reintroducing compulsory military service.
You must go fight Russia for the sake of democracy, despite the fact that Ukraine is no longer a democracy.
And our democracy in Europe, that they keep calling it, does nothing but operate to the disadvantage and against the will of the people living there, especially in the case of immigration, which we'll get into in just a minute.
That's your Daily Dispatch, of course, brought to you by InfoWarsStore.com.

And we hope you enjoy the products, which we know you do because people keep coming back for it and calling in and talking about how great they are.
We don't tell people to do that.
They just feel compelled.
And for very good reason.
Try it yourself and see why.
Now let's get into what's happening with Donald Trump and the Trump trial.
As CNN reports, Judgment Day looms for Donald Trump, but it really looms for all of America.
And again, this is one of those instances where we really are seeing the polar opposite of one another on both sides of this.
To me, those of us paying attention seems Just absurdly clear that this is a completely baseless show trial.
And we've gone over a hundred times how, you know, why that's the case.
And it's, it's multi-layered, right?
There's no underlying crime.
There was no coverup.
Donald Trump didn't even know these things were happening.
We're not even sure if the affair happened in the first place.
Even if it did, even if the payments happened, none of that is illegal.
It's all about mislabeling a payment, which he paid to a lawyer, and it was labeled legal fees.
That is the crime.
That they're trying to send the frontrunner of the opposition party to jail for.
I mean, it's beyond absurd.
But to the left, this is a question of whether the elite can get away with things, whether anybody is above the law.
Now, I remind you, this is in a world where the previous Democratic candidate, Hillary Clinton, Got the FBI to make an announcement where they literally said, yes, she committed a crime.
No, we're not prosecuting.
The exact same thing that happened with the current president of the United States and the special counsel in the classified documents case saying, yes, Joe Biden committed a crime.
No, we're not going to prosecute.
So the question as to whether or not anybody is above the law in this country, the answer is obviously yes.
Yes, many people are above the law.
Really, it seems like the only person that's not above the law is Donald Trump because he's not in the club and doesn't play their game.
All of this is just absurdly apparent.
I mean, it's just on your face.
The fact that CNN can and apparently is tricking people into thinking that this is a forthright and upfront Legal proceeding is truly baffling.
I mean, it's really astonishing.
And they can't even keep their story straight.
Because here they're saying, you know, this will determine whether or not anybody is above the law.
It will determine whether the rule of law still exists in this country.
I mean, it doesn't.
Let's be clear.
The rule of law is over.
It's over now.
Doesn't exist anymore.
Certain cases, you might be lucky enough to find one of the vestiges of the old ways who still You know, adhere to their oaths and care about justice.
But for the vast majority of specifically political cases, there's no law.
I mean, you've sent a guy to jail, Stuart Rhodes, for two decades for an unspoken conspiracy because he was in the same chat, you know, text chat chain as dudes who walked through the Capitol and actually put themselves in between violent protesters and the Capitol Police in order to protect the Capitol Police.
And Stuart Rhodes wasn't in there, by the way, so because he was in the same chat room as the people who were in the Capitol without permission, he's been sent to jail for 20 years.
So justice doesn't exist anymore, let's be perfectly clear here.
So this is really a question as to whether or not the Democrats are gonna go, you know, full-fledged tyranny, or whether, again, this vestige of America, this remaining semblance of The American way with truth, justice, fairness, whether that exists or not.
And I guess that depends on.
Twelve random people from New York.
So it's not looking good.
It really is looking like the fate of our republic and whether or not we have a system in which the people get to choose their leaders or whether the leaders that the people choose get utterly destroyed by a faceless deep state monster.
That's really what the question is today.
And it will be decided by twelve random dudes from New York as to whether they can rise above the petty political games that are being played and actually cast their vote, guilty or not guilty, purely on the evidence,
or whether the infection has seeped into every rung of society and whether or whether the infection has seeped into every rung of society and whether these people are infected with the mental illness of hey, you violate an oath, And what's, you know, what's the big deal about violating an oath?
What's the big deal about, you know, not going strictly for the evidence?
This is Hitler after all, and we have to stop him.
So whether they're able to bend morality in that direction or whether truth prevails, that's what's being decided today.
It's very troubling to think that that's the case.
Now CNN themselves, they're writing articles about how this is about whether somebody's above the law or not and priming their audience to believe that Donald Trump isn't convicted.
It means he somehow I don't know.
He's a mobster, right?
He got away with this because he... I don't know what they'll come up with.
Who knows, right?
Who knows.
They've rigged every part of this.
Every decision has gone their way.
The judge, as we've reported day after day, has routinely violated his position of neutrality to yell at and insult defense witnesses.
Just scream at defense lawyers, just signaling constantly to the jury that the defense side, Donald Trump's team, doesn't deserve respect and should be considered not playing in the rules, even though everything they've done has been within the rules and everything the Democrats have done has been wildly outside of it.
I mean, literally, the star witnesses of the defense Are just like, on the record, convicted liars.
Spent time in jail because they lie so much.
And these are the people that are testifying against Donald Trump, have testified against Donald Trump, and whether their testimony is considered legit or not, we wait to see.
But while CNN writes articles framing the trial this way, they made the mistake of bringing on actual legal analysts to the shows, who sort of destroy their whole argument.
From the ground up.
So let's go down to clip number six.
This is CNN's legal analyst on whether DA Bragg's team fulfilled the requirement for beyond reasonable doubt.
Spoiler alert, not even close.
Let's watch.
kate bolduan
What Michael's getting at is the burden of proof is an important one to remind everyone.
It's on the prosecution, right?
They need to prove beyond reasonable doubt that Donald Trump broke the law.
And you think, after listening to all of this, you think they fell short.
unidentified
How?
They fell way short because let's start with reasonable doubt.
What is reasonable doubt?
And it's not simply a doubt based upon reason.
Anytime a human being needs to make an important decision in life, if you have enough information, for example, doctor says you need open heart surgery.
Doc, go ahead and schedule.
I don't have a reasonable doubt.
Conversely, if I say, I appreciate it, but I need a second opinion.
I need more information.
That is having a reasonable doubt.
There is reasonable doubt all over this case.
Where is Keith Schiller?
Where is Allen Weisselberg?
How did Michael Cohen get away with stealing $30,000?
Hold a pity party for him.
Made $4 million on this.
Thought he'd be chief of staff.
He's a fixer.
If the plumber comes to my house to fix my leak, I could be home.
That doesn't mean I know how he's doing it and what it's taking to be fixed.
Stormy Daniels, let's hold a pity party for her.
Why do we need to know whether or not the former president wore a condom or not?
It's simply about, did the former president know that See, he's just laying there, he's just like, he's like, there's nothing here.
This is ridiculous.
Michael Cohen was his lawyer.
Did he intend to cover up the election or to protect his family?
It's everywhere.
kate bolduan
When Randy gets to whisper tones, I start getting concerned.
harrison smith
He's just laying out, he's just like, he's like, there's nothing here.
This is ridiculous.
Reasonable doubt.
I mean, there's nothing but, there's no reasonable lack of doubt.
There's nothing that's been presented that shows Donald Trump did anything wrong.
Again, this is the crazy part.
The affair wasn't illegal.
Paying her wasn't illegal.
Paying the lawyer to pay her wasn't illegal.
None of this was illegal.
There's no underlying crime.
There is no crime here.
And the judge, I mean, it's like, it's so crazy to have to say this stuff.
It's so, it is so insane.
That this is where we're at at this point.
And again, remember, they don't care.
Your neighbor doesn't care.
Your coworker doesn't care.
They don't care.
They just want Trump in jail.
It's a challenge I want to issue today.
People watching this.
Ask, if you know somebody that's a liberal, if you know somebody that's like, got CNN on at their desk because they're waiting to see the Results of Trump going to jail and they're getting ready to pop champagne because Orange Man Bad is being sent to jail.
I really want you to ask them what he did, why this was so bad, what was wrong about this.
Because I've asked people and they don't know.
They don't care.
You know?
If you ask them for details, well what exactly did he do?
What law did he break?
What's he being accused of doing?
How did Michael Cohen play into this?
How did this just get brought up now when it's all the way back in 2016?
How did payments made after the 2016 election affect the 2016 election?
Ask them in detail what this case is about.
They don't know.
If they did know, they would be appalled by it.
If they actually knew and cared about, if they cared about the rule of law and actually knew the details of this case, they would be horrified at the prospect of Trump Being convicted.
They don't care.
They want Trump convicted.
They don't care what it's about.
They don't care what it's for.
They don't care if it's legitimate.
To them, having gone through the process is enough.
They understand that what's happening right now is a show trial.
And as long as the requirement to fulfill the appearance of a trial has taken place, they understand that's enough to claim legitimacy.
In the public sphere.
It's like a moral thing.
It's a spiritual thing.
It's whether or not... What it really makes me think of is like parts of the Bible when Jesus would talk to the Pharisees and the Pharisees would be like, but I did the ceremony.
I did the thing I'm supposed to do.
I checked all the boxes.
I got the pigeon, I cut it in the right way, I put it away, so I'm forgiven.
And Jesus would always be like, no, you have to actually repent.
The things that you do, just the process of the ceremony, is not the point.
That's just there to remind you of and to give physical manifestation to the spiritual thing that's supposed to be going on in the background.
So it doesn't matter if you do the ritual exactly right.
If you aren't actually contrite, if you aren't Actually sorry for what you did in the little little dance that you do doesn't actually matter That's sort of what's happening here.
It's like are we using the trial the jury the processes and the Manifestation of our justice system is that being employed to get to the truth Or is it just a ceremony that we have to go through to make our persecution look legitimate?
That's sort of what's Going on in the minds of liberals.
They know that this isn't legitimate.
They don't care.
All they care about is checking the boxes.
All they care about is, okay, was there a jury there?
Was there a judge there?
Did lawyers get to talk?
Great, then this was legitimate.
And if he's found guilty, then he was given a fair trial.
When in reality, nothing about this has been legitimate.
The judge has routinely exceeded the bounds and responsibilities of his office.
And I mean, again, it's just it is.
Mind blowing the things that happen in this case.
Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg indicted Trump on 34 felony counts, 34 felony counts related to hush money payments to Stormy Daniels.
DA Alvin Bragg didn't even explain what exactly he wanted to convict Trump of in the charging documents.
Bragg has still not clearly stated the predicate crimes, but it doesn't matter.
The court is ready to find Trump guilty and send him to prison.
So they're giving, you know, the judge is giving final instructions and the jury is going to deliberations today.
And there has still not been presented the underlying crime that he supposedly covered up with this payment.
It doesn't matter apparently.
The judge told the jury it doesn't matter.
Judge Merchant made it easier for the jury to convict Trump when he sided with Bragg's prosecutors and ruled that the jury does not need to unanimously agree on the predicate crime Trump committed.
So there's a headline today from the Babylon Bee that was like, the judge makes it easy for the jury to convict by telling them they don't actually need to think Trump is guilty.
They don't need to know the crime he's guilty of to convict.
That is actually what's happening here.
I mean, it's a parody, but it's also a reality.
Judge Merchant said the jury does not need to unanimously agree on the crime Trump committed.
So he's literally instructing this jury, you don't have to understand the crime.
You don't have to think he's guilty.
you can still convict him and send him to prison because this is all just a show, and you're just actors playing parts.
unidentified
All right, welcome back, folks.
harrison smith
So in about 30 minutes, the judge will be giving final instructions to the jury in Donald Trump's New York City courtroom in the trial.
Trial of the century, according to CNN.
Again, we just showed a CNN legal analyst talking about reasonable doubt in this case and the fact that it is pervasive.
It is ubiquitous.
It exists in every aspect of this entire trial.
There is not just reasonable, but self-evident, case-destroying doubt in every step of the way.
Whether a crime was even committed, whether it should have been charged in the first place, the ways in which it was You know, advanced.
It was accelerated and elevated to a higher crime.
The fact that the statute of limitations had expired.
The fact that the witnesses for the prosecution are convicted perjurers who lied continuously and whose own statements about this case were proven to be lies on the stand.
Every aspect of this trial Is baseless at a fundamental level.
And again, I encourage people, I'd love to, I'm going to open up phone lines for like half the show today.
So I want to hear people's speculation and discussion on this trial.
Even though we have a lot of other stuff to talk about, I want to take calls on this trial in particular, and this outcome in particular.
And maybe between now and then in the next hour, if you're out there, go, You can do it in a friendly way.
If you're friends or co-workers or neighbors with somebody who's eagerly awaiting big bad Trump finally getting what's coming to him, I really want you to have a discussion with them and really ask them what it is about this case that's so outrageous, why this case should be the precedent-setting case, the first time a former president has ever been charged with anything.
Do they know the details of it?
Do they know the underlying crime?
There isn't one.
Remember, there actually isn't one.
So that can be a trick question.
You can drop them.
What's the underlying crime?
Correct answer.
There isn't one.
Which should be a problem with the whole thing.
And what you'll find is if like people I've talked to, if your friends are like the people I've had these discussions with, they don't know, and they don't care.
They want Trump gone.
And if a show trial is the way to do it, Then they know that they can say, well, he got a trial.
Well, it was that this was a jury of his peers found him guilty, convicted felon, Donald Trump.
If you dig in, you'll understand that they know it's fraudulent.
They know perfectly well that this case would have never been brought against somebody that wasn't named Donald Trump.
As Fareed Zakaria said that exact thing.
He said, if this man's name wasn't Donald Trump, this would have never been brought.
Even the lead thinkers on the leftist liberal side of things openly admit that this is a targeted persecution.
That this prosecution is completely unusual, totally outside the bounds of normal practice of law.
So this isn't about nobody's above the law.
This is about warping and manipulating and distorting the law to achieve political ends.
And they know it.
And they are perfectly fine with that.
And that is the real danger here.
That is the real test that America is going through right now.
Is whether or not we have a population worthy of democracy, really.
You know, the idea is that the people in democracy are supposed to take their position as vote casters to actually, it's supposed to be an obligation, supposed to be something that you have reverence for, and that you don't just, you know, just throw your vote away.
You don't just, you know, cast a vote for Because you think you're going to get paid for it?
You know?
The democratic system, the voting system, a constitutional republic can very easily be manipulated if you have the willing participation of a corrupt populace.
It makes it very easy for corrupt politicians to take advantage of it.
Very hard if you have a moral and upright and decent, God-fearing, law-abiding populace.
Constitutions and democracies are great.
But if the populace themselves go along with the corruption, if they allow themselves to be bribed or allow themselves to be, you know, flippant about the rule of law, then it all goes down.
Everything goes down and it should.
It's dangerous to live in a world where stupid, immoral people get to dictate your government's policy.
New York Post has this story.
Here's why the case against Donald Trump should end in not guilty.
Trump's lawyers are defending a former president who's charged under a state misdemeanor, which died years ago under the statute of limitations.
It was zapped back into life in the form of roughly three dozen felonies by claiming that bookkeeping violations, allegedly hiding payments to Stormy Daniels to ensure her silence about a supposed affair with Trump, were committed to hide another crime.
But what is that second crime?
Doesn't exist.
Even liberal legal analysts admitted they could not figure out what was being alleged in Bragg's indictment.
Now after weeks of trial, the situation has changed little.
Originally, Bragg referenced four possible crimes, though he's now claiming there are only three, a tax violation or either state or federal campaign finance violation.
The last crime is particularly controversial because Bragg has no authority to enforce federal law, and the Justice Department declined any criminal charges.
The Federal Election Commission did not even find grounds for a civil fine.
Is it becoming clear how just utterly ridiculous all this is?
So they take a misdemeanor for which the statute of limitations has expired years ago.
They transmogrify that into 34 felony counts about covering up a crime and they can't even point to the crime that exists.
Anything that they do point to is not even within the jurisdiction of the DA to charge that type of crime.
And the jurisdiction it is in, it said there's no crime.
The federal prosecutors said, no, there's no crime here.
I can't charge this.
The FCC said, yeah, we aren't even doing a civil penalty.
You know, like they did for Hillary Clinton, like when Hillary Clinton was faced with the same thing and the FEC charged her $100,000 and it was paid by the DNC.
Never so much as a stepping a toe in a courtroom.
unidentified
So.
harrison smith
We all understand.
There's been nothing.
There's been no proven, nothing proven, nothing even really alleged.
But the judge, Judge Merchant, who, by the way, apparently his daughter works for Representative Goldman and was given $1.5 million by Hakeem Jeffries.
That story broke yesterday.
Laura Loomer.
So just a judge from a family who the judge himself and his offspring are intimately involved financially and politically with the Democratic Party.
Has told the jury that they don't need to unanimously agree, that is, understand what the predicate crime Trump committed was, what the underlying crime that he supposedly covered up was.
This is like when police arrest somebody for resisting arrest.
It's like, well, what were you trying to arrest them for?
Here's the exclusive from Laura Loomer.
Judge Merchant's daughter has Kamala Harris as a client at her company that focuses on campaign and elections.
Judge Merchant, the New York State Supreme Court judge who issued a gag order against President Trump today, has a daughter named Lauren Merchant.
She is the president and partner at a company called Authentic Campaigns.
So of course they represented Kamala Harris, the most authentic politician there is.
Yeah, so she's like, she's like a democratic operative.
unidentified
100%.
harrison smith
Now her father, the judge, has told the jury there doesn't need to be an underlying crime.
Effectively, right?
He said you don't have to unanimously agree.
That means they can all come up with their own imagining.
So their own conception as to what underlying crime he committed because one was never offered by D.A.
Bragg.
So saying you don't have to unanimously agree means that, hey, if you think the underlying crime was campaign finance, if you think the underlying crime was blackmail, hey, whatever, it doesn't matter.
You should just make up for yourself what you think he did, and then convict him, and we'll send him to jail.
Because this is a show trial, and everybody involved knows it.
I want everybody to really think about what's happening today with Donald Trump in the courtroom.
Think about all of the effort, all of the resources, all of the access that has been expended by the federal government to get Donald Trump.
They have nothing.
They have nothing.
They got FISA warrants.
Eight years ago, based on a totally falsified dossier provided by the Clinton campaign, which was actually, you know, made her guilty of all the things they're now charging Trump for, but that's beside the point.
They used opposition research, falsified opposition, knowingly falsified opposition research, to open up warrants to spy on everyone in Trump's inner circle.
They came up with nothing.
They launched Crossfire Hurricane, the investigation into Donald Trump being a Russian agent.
Came up with nothing.
They had a special counsel for two years and tens of millions of dollars, entire teams of lawyers working day and night, digging through everything Trump has ever said and every document ever associated with him.
They found nothing.
They found absolutely nothing.
matt infowars
An IRS agent was just convicted of like literally 50,000 felonies.
Guess what he wasn't convicted for?
The felony of stealing and leaking Donald Trump's tax returns.
Yeah, little John.
Little John was just convicted five years for 50,000 felonies for stealing taxes of some famous people that you've heard of, but mostly regular people.
And he's appealing his.
Less than hour per felony charge, but was not charged for leaking Donald Trump's taxes.
harrison smith
Just a little side note.
But it's another aspect of the depth to which they'll descend to try desperately to prove that Donald Trump is something that he's not.
So he was, if he was 1% what they said he was, if he was this criminal, if he was, you know, constantly, if he was a mafia boss, that's, you know, bullying people and threatening people and withholding money from people that deserve it and crushing his enemy.
I mean, they've had access to everything from Trump.
They obviously couldn't get him on any foreign influence.
They couldn't get him on any campaign finance laws.
They couldn't get him on anything while he was in the White House.
They couldn't get him on insurrection.
They tried to charge him with January 6th and with election meddling and with... It all comes down to this trial.
This is the only trial that will take place before the election, which is the point of all of this.
This is their last chance.
And this case is nothing.
It doesn't exist.
There's no crime.
They can't even point to a crime.
They can't even make one up.
It's so bad, they can't even pretend that there's a crime.
They have to actually instruct the jury, make up your own crime.
Come up with your own excuse for calling him guilty.
Just convict him.
I really, really want you to understand what today comes down to.
This is the Democrats' Hail Mary, last chance operation.
And I'm thinking part of it is, is that the Democrats were too confident.
You know, they had four years to go after Trump.
They could have tied him up with this stuff years ago, trying to get convictions on the classified documents, on the election, electioneering for 2020.
They could get them on the, but they waited because they wanted it to be during the election year.
They wanted to use this as a way to stop him from campaigning.
And that might've screwed them in the end because now none of the, like they couldn't operate fast enough there.
You know, cases are too flimsy, so they keep getting delayed.
So none of the other ones are happening before the election.
So again, this is like the overconfidence of the Democrats being like, we'll wait to charge until just the right time.
And then like, they're like, all right, charge now!
And they charge.
And they're like, I actually send it back.
You got to do this again.
And then they got to wait two months and then three months.
And then suddenly it's too late.
They're overconfident.
They're stupid.
They're bad at their jobs.
Even the corrupt ones.
So again, I just want to paint the picture of just how thoroughly they've persecuted Donald Trump for eight years.
The FBI and the CIA and everybody in the deep state having full access, live time to his voicemails, mailboxes, his inner circle.
I mean, they've had everything.
They came up with nothing.
So like, if nothing else, even the fact that this is the case, Even the fact that this is the one thing that they're trying to get Donald Trump is, is in a way, evidence of Trump's innocence holistically.
His innocence in spirit.
His innocence, like, of everything.
As if there was anything that they could get Trump on.
They would have done it.
But they're resorting to the most far-fetched Legal stretch, you could possibly imagine, turning a single misdemeanor that should have been thrown out based solely on the statute of limitations into 34 felony counts that all rely on an underlying crime that doesn't exist.
I mean, this is pure madness, pure unadulterated corruption.
And again, the judge has actually said the jury doesn't need to Have a crime to convict President Trump on.
It's crazy, but that's the truth.
And again, I talked about it last week, but the jury relies on the judge to be an impartial observer and are looking for signals from the judge to determine which side of the courtroom is out of order because the rules of etiquette in a courtroom are completely different and separate than your average daily etiquette.
In other words, if I just jump up and interrupt your conversation, it's very rude.
And typically people would look at me and, you know, chastise me for being so rude.
But in courtroom, you have to do that.
It's necessary.
It's not just polite.
It's like what you're required to do.
So they look to the judge to tell the jury whether or not what each side is doing is within the bounds of the rules of etiquette or outside of it so you've got this judge that routinely is according to the gateway pundit screaming at the top of his lungs at donald trump's lawyers you should know better than to make a statement like that in my courtroom right
so and this statement was about sending trump to jail because obviously they're trying I don't even get this, really.
The headline from Post Millennial, Judge Merchant Tells Jury Not To Consider Whether A Conviction Would Send Trump To Jail?
So during the defense summation, you heard Mr. Blanche ask you not to send the defendant to prison.
That was not permitted.
You must not consider it.
If the defendant is found guilty, sentencing will be my decision.
So he was like, apparently, allegedly, screaming at the top of his lungs at Trump's lawyers because they said that the prosecution is trying to send Trump to jail.
It's like, but that's obviously the case.
Like what?
You're not allowed to say what the point of the trial is?
I don't even understand this, really.
Merchant has repeatedly threatened the former president with jail time for violation of gag orders.
So I guess what Trump's lawyer said was, quote, Cohen lied to each of you repeatedly.
You cannot send someone to prison based, and then they object, objection, objection.
He's not supposed to say send somebody to prison.
So again, whether you say send somebody to prison or, you know, and even if this was such a wild violation, I mean, I don't mean, again, I don't even understand the objection here.
Obviously, 34 felonies, Trump's going to be sent to prison if he's found guilty.
That's, it's like crazy that this is what they get mad at.
So it doesn't seem like it's worth yelling at the top of your lungs, even if this was a violation.
You say, excuse me, you're not allowed to talk about prison.
Remember, sentencing will be my thing.
Just focus on the conviction.
You know, there's a way to do it.
But by screaming, by yelling, but how dare you?
You should know better than that to make a statement like that.
All that does is signal to the jury, oh man, Donald Trump's defense must be desperate.
They're breaking laws.
They're breaking rules.
That's not good.
You don't want a defense counsel flailing and breaking rules and pissing the judge off.
He must not be doing good.
He must not be doing well.
That's the signal that's being sent to the jury.
So this judge is completely out of bounds.
He is warping the outcome of this trial by his outburst, which this is just the latest and we've reported on others, but always, always targeted at Trump's team, which is madness.
The story from the New York Post, again by Jonathan Turley, here's why the case against Trump should end in not guilty, details sort of the, he calls it a three-legged stool that this conviction relies on, with each leg being You know, an aspect of the crime.
In this case, the government needs to show that A, there's a falsification of business records, B, that the records were falsified to conceal another crime, and C, that Donald Trump had the specific intent to use unlawful means to influence the election.
They didn't prove any one of these.
One of them is temporally impossible because the crime happened when he was already president.
How could he have tried to influence the election after being elected?
This is how...
Insane this is.
I'll review this on the other side, the three-legged stool.
What made you decide to start a podcast?

harrison smith
Folks, it is now 10 a.m.
Eastern Time.
So New York City, if it's all going according to schedule, Judge Merchant will be laying the final jury instructions to the jury of 12 New Yorkers.
We'll decide the fate of Trump and therefore the fate of our democratic system.
We'll move on now because obviously we're not going to get a result in the next few minutes.
It may be later today.
It may be tomorrow when the jury returns with a decision after deliberation.
But we'll move on to some other stuff and then we'll take your calls on this topic in the third hour and we'll bring you any updates we hear in the meantime.
But let me just finish out with this article from Jonathan Turley.
From the New York Post, here's why the case of Trump should end in not guilty, says Justice Juan Merchant has ruled that the jury does not have to agree on what the crime is.
Okay, let that sentence sink in for a second.
The jury does not have to agree on what crime was committed.
Okay?
Again, everybody involved in this knows it's a show trial.
We know it's a show trial.
They know it's a show trial.
That's the purpose of show trials.
Everybody knows it's a show trial, but as long as you have a judge and a jury there, you can point to it and say he was given a fair trial.
That's not fair trial.
It was a trial.
It was a show trial.
It was pretend.
It was play acting.
Everybody in the right places with the underlying Validity completely absent.
The jury has been given little substantive information on these crimes and Merchant has denied a legal expert who would have shown that there was no federal election violation.
The case should have been dismissed for lack of evidence of a cognizable crime.
The jury will be reminded that the burden is on the government, not the defense.
So he talks about this three-legged stool.
So the first leg would be the falsification of records aspect of this crime.
The dead misdemeanor, meaning the misdemeanor that had long ago expired in the statute of limitations, is the foundation for this entire persecution and it requires the falsification of business records.
But it's not clear that there was any such falsification or that Trump had any knowledge or role in the falsification.
Okay, so the first leg of the stool, the actual thing that's being charged is the falsification of records, hasn't actually been proven at all.
They proved that people under Trump paid money to people, but they never established that Trump knew about the payments, had discussions about the payments.
The one time that Michael Cohen claimed, I called Trump about this, there's no records of that phone call.
There's in fact records of other phone calls made at the same time that he said the phone call to Trump was made.
So they haven't proved, even by word, even by witness testimony, there was no testimony that Trump knew about these payments.
The government must also, the second leg is the secondary crime.
In other words, this money was paid to cover up an initial crime.
But that crime hasn't been elucidated at all.
The government must show that any falsification was done to conceal, to further or conceal another crime.
But there wasn't another crime.
So Merchant has allowed the jury to repeatedly hear of election violations while blocking a legal expert from explaining that there is no federal law violation, the payment of hush money is not a campaign contribution, and again, the federal government not only declined to bring any criminal charge, but found no basis for even a civil fine.
So not only this with the second leg of the stool, the underlying crime, not only did it not exist and they never charged one, if it did exist, it wouldn't be in the purview of DA Bragg to charge it.
It would have been a federal crime.
But the feds never charged it because there was no crime.
Okay, so first crime hasn't been proven.
Trump had anything to do with any payments to anybody, except that he signed the checks that were given to him by somebody else who, you know, Weisselman, or Weisselberg, or whatever his name is, who was involved in it.
And then the second crime, the underlying crime, doesn't exist.
And even if it did exist, this wouldn't be the right venue to charge it in.
That's how far removed from reality we are.
Finally, the third leg is the criminal intent.
They have to prove criminal intent to this.
Well, the government spent considerable time proving facts not in dispute.
There's no dispute that there was an NDA or that Trump signed checks on the payments.
That's like repeatedly telling a court that a driver drove 55 miles an hour down a highway and changed lanes with a signal.
The intent is to convince the jury that somehow proving an NDA was paid and that an affair occurred is proof of an offense, but it's not because none of those are crimes.
So we're waiting for the jury to decide whether to convict Trump without a crime.
Welcome back, folks.
It's time to do it.

Time to talk about immigration in Europe.
I don't even want to talk about this stuff.
But we have to.
We have to.
harrison smith
But we have to.
We have to.
This is the... European genocide taking place right now.
And it's horrifying to talk about, and the videos are horrifying.
And outrageous and infuriating.
But we got to talk about it because the immigration crisis in Europe is reaching a fever pitch in both directions.
The violence and outrages against European people...
is reaching never-before-seen levels, which is really saying something, considering the fact that nine years ago in 2015, there's the highest rate of Islamic or migrant violence in Europe.
And yet for nine years, this problem has only been exacerbated, and the solution that the power structure has implemented is kind of like Event 201 with COVID, where they come and the solution that the power structure has implemented is kind of
There's a major problem that they're coming together to solve and all of their energy is expended to figure out how to control the media narrative about the problem.
So that the problem itself can continue unabated, but the people's reactions to it can be managed and manipulated and contained.
So that's what's happened for the last 15 or 20 years.
As you've had mass immigration into Europe of millions upon millions of non-Europeans. - Yes.
The violent crime has continued.
The insane and horrifying abuse of the native people of that land has continued.
And to deal with this issue, the power structure in the EU has implemented censorship.
Not that they're not doing anything to stop the crime.
They're not doing anything to send the people back who commit the crimes.
They're not stopping the flow of migrants.
None of that.
What they're doing is they're implementing speech laws to stop the other Europeans from hearing about the victimization so that their policies can continue unabated.
And this is a trend, right?
With COVID, Event 201 was how do we control the media narrative?
How do we get our stories in the news media?
How do we make sure that no major outlet is going off script?
That's what they were concerned about, and that's what they did, and they were very effective and very good at doing that.
The virus went out of control and the vaccine is poison, but in terms of censorship, they're on the ball, and they got it under control.
Same thing happens with Transgender abuse in schools, like in Loudoun County, where you've got a trans boy going into a girl's locker or girl's bathroom and raping a girl.
And instead of doing something to address the crime that was committed, the Loudoun County School Board Paul's a father out of the room for talking about it.
See, they're more concerned about the backlash.
They're more concerned about the outcome of their policies affecting the further implementation of their policies.
So it's the speech and the awareness of what's going on that's their major concern, not the actual rape and crime that was committed as a result of their policy.
Okay, so this is like a very common thing across the board, but it is perhaps most evident when it comes to Migrants in Europe.
And so again, the violence is becoming overwhelming and the backlash is finally starting to boil over.
Finally.
For literally for a decade, the European people have sat by and watched as their homelands are stolen from them.
Stolen outright.
I went to Germany in 2015, I think?
Maybe 2014?
It may have been a decade ago.
I walked down the main street of Frankfurt, I saw nothing but Islamic people.
nothing but Muslims.
So again, this isn't some small group of beleaguered migrants who are fleeing oppressive war. - Sure.
And it's all these Germans like, ah, but we hate these because they're outsiders.
No, no.
Their cities are overwhelmed and have been for a decade.
The younger generation in every European country, more or less, the number one baby name is Mohammed.
I mean, it's, it's a flood.
It's a eradication of the European genome.
It's on purpose by design and genocidal.
And the violence that comes along with this sort of just Additional trouble because even if there wasn't even though there wasn't violence committed against European natives They'd still be demographically eliminated within a generation or two.
So the violence is just like the You know the rape of the city after it's conquered The conquering has been done.
This is just the Rambunctious activity of the conquerors So yesterday in France, there was a mass stabbing on board a train in Lyon, France.
As Concerned Citizen at B Gates is a psycho on X says, Yesterday, a horrific clip of a calculated attack went viral online.
An illegal immigrant waited for the train carriages to close before stabbing anyone in range.
The video was allegedly obtained illegally.
The authorities didn't wish for it to be seen.
Like with the Australian preacher stabbing, governments don't want you knowing how bad things are getting across the Western world as the frequency and severity of these attacks only increases.
Western governments have betrayed their citizens, all evil, by design.
So, this video that we're about to show you had to be leaked illegally because the government that brought these people in silenced their own citizens, let these Violent migrants out.
Made it illegal to share the video evidence of the attack that took place.
So we don't live in Europe.
We aren't under the restrictions of European speech laws.
This is America for the time being.
So we're going to show you the video even though they don't want us to.
unidentified
That sounds right.
harrison smith
So let's go now to this video.
This is the original CCTV video of this.
French authorities are more concerned with removing this video than solving the problem.
By the way, the attacker that you're about to see is a multi-recidivist previously known for other aggressions and under a judicial order to be expelled from France two years ago.
So this guy's committed multiple violent crimes.
He was actually under a deportation order, but he's still in France and decided to go on a random stabbing spree that we're going to show you right now.
Let's watch.
So you see the guy in black is the stabber.
Just an average day on your Leon underground.
He waits for the doors To close because he wants people trapped in with him when he starts stabbing.
We got tourists and locals just going through their normal day when he moves around, pulls a knife from his pocket, and stabs a young man in the gut multiple times.
Stabs another random person multiple times.
And everyone starts screaming and fleeing as he violently stabs everybody in the train car.
So we can pull it down now.
We don't need to see any more?
Just to give you an idea.
Just to give you an idea of just one of the...
Numerous horrific stabbing events taking place over the last few weeks.
And remember, when the French government sees that, they don't see, you know, an outrage that needs to be corrected, a justice system that has failed, a migration system that is putting their own citizens at risk.
They see hate speech that needs to be removed from the internet.
So you don't know the effects of their policies, so you won't oppose them.
And if you do oppose them, they'll say you're motivated by hate and it's illegal to oppose them anyway.
That, of course, is not the only stabbing event caught on video this week.
unidentified
Thank you.
harrison smith
Clip number 12 is North African immigrants threatening a father with a baby.
They threatened to stab him in Spain this time.
Clip number 12.
You see the father in the white shirt, the migrants surrounding him with knives, and just off screen at the top is a stroller with a baby.
So, you know, it doesn't matter where in Europe you are, you've got the natives being continually menaced by gangs of Africans with knives.
Man, they don't care.
I mean, babies, fathers, parents, I mean, you're their enemy.
They're there for retribution.
They're there to exploit you as long as possible and then discard you when you've been wrung dry.
That's the point of this.
That's the point of this whole thing.
And of course it was last year in Annecy, France, when a 32-year-old Syrian refugee stabbed six babies aged one to three.
And it goes on and on and on and on and on.
Now this clip, clip number one, was a It's a video of a local, you know, a Dutch, a white person, a European, being savagely beaten by a gang of imports.
And this clip has an interesting twist.
Let's go now to clip number one.
So here you see the one white guy being mobbed by Uh, children, adults, just it's a family affair with the migrants.
There's like literally like an eight-year-old kid getting in on the action and stomping the head of this Dutch migrant as he's shoved onto the railroad tracks.
So that was... I mean, not even unusual.
Not even particularly brutal.
It's almost normal with videos that we see.
I mean, nobody got stabbed, nobody got beheaded.
There wasn't an old woman being pushed down the stairs, so why even show this, right?
I mean, this is the thing.
I got a lot of stuff to cover, and pretty much every day there's a video somewhat like that, right?
Every single day there's a new video of some native European person minding their own business and being brutally attacked, just like that.
So why show you this one?
Well because this one was commented upon By a Dutch woman who is now facing jail time for her comments So let's go now to clip number 16 This is somebody who commented on that last video pointing out that the attackers were not of Dutch origin.
That they were imports, they were foreigners that were in the Netherlands beating up Dutch people.
She's now being charged for talking about that video.
Let's watch.
She says, recently I announced that the public prosecutor is prosecuting me for group defamation.
And that I'll soon have to appeal it in the criminal court.
For reference, in this country, murderers and rapists usually don't have to appear in front of a big chamber that consists of three judges.
They can justify themselves in front of an individual judge.
Apparently, the prosecutor deems my actions so severe and thinks it's extremely problematic that I, a concerned citizen, And a journalist at the time, do in fact have to justify myself in front of multiple judges, all because I dared to criticize the government and dared to address the political and societal problems.
And I can't underline how scary that is, this huge government apparatus being employed against you.
She said, I feel like I'm being cornered and the only thing that is left to do is push back against that totalitarian government that is staring me in the face right now and defend myself in court.
Until now, I took this case on completely on my own.
I have a background in law myself and I'm highly interested in these cases.
However, because of the decision of the prosecutor and explicit decision to have me appear in court, I have no other option than to ask for help.
I cannot do this alone.
I will need all the help I can possibly get from the best attorneys, experts and anyone else who can help me.
unidentified
To win this case, of course.
harrison smith
That's in my best interest, because as I just said, it's terrifying to find that enormous government apparatus working against you.
But it's also highly important for freedom of speech in general.
Because this case will set a precedent regarding which words may or may not be used in the public debate.
By me, by you, by concerned citizens, by other journalists, by dissidents.
And therefore, it's extremely important to win this case.
Unfortunately, a case like this comes with enormous costs.
I thought my insurance would cover at least some of the costs, but unfortunately that's not the case.
And that only strengthens the feeling that you're on your own against a totalitarian government putting you against the wall.
That's why, as a last resort, I'm asking you, the public, to help me with financial contribution.
So I can at least pay for the best attorneys and experts who can help me win this case.
I really appreciate it.
Really appreciate your help.
unidentified
And I wouldn't mind if it was really necessary.
harrison smith
This is my last resort in my defense against this totalitarian government.
I really hope you will help me.
Thank you so much.
unidentified
Yeah.
harrison smith
Yeah, it's horrifying.
It is absolutely horrifying.
So again, she simply stated that the people in the video that you just saw were migrants and this is the result of government policy and that we shouldn't be allowing in more migrants.
That is now considered hate speech.
Unlike the rapists and murderers who get to appeal their case to a single judge, she's now facing a tribunal of judges and can't even afford her own defense.
And of course isn't going to be provided one.
And the really dangerous thing is with the way these laws work in Europe.
I bet a lot of Dutch people are scared to contribute to her.
Because they'll probably be put on the list next.
You get charged with a hate offense, which is the worst thing in the world, obviously.
And forget the stabbing babies on a playground.
That's, you know, whatever.
That's just what they do.
But to oppose that?
But to speak out against the government?
Well, that's the highest crime you can commit.
And if you're donating to a legal case for somebody opposing the government, well, you're just as bad.
So, you know, this is the doubling and compounding effect of this level of tyranny, this level of Language limitation.
But just like that woman is speaking out, people all over Europe are speaking out.
In Germany, the Green Minister's speech last night was drowned out as right and left protesters protested against her pro-war policies in Nuremberg.
And of course, the big controversy today is that this song where the chorus says, foreigners out, Germany for the Germans, is being aggressively shut down by the European governments.
I don't even want to show this video, but I will.
This is just another example.
So far, we've seen a mass stabbing on a train in France, a father with a baby in a carriage being or in a stroller being menaced by gangs of North Africans in Spain.
We've seen Africans in the Netherlands beating up a Dutch kid.
And then the person, the journalist covering that story, being persecuted by the government and threatened with jail time over it.
So what do we draw from this?
There's not a country in Europe that is not affected by this.
There is no limitation to the brazenness that these attacks can take.
And the government's overwhelming concern is to silence anybody speaking out about these events as they tried to make it illegal to show you the video on the train that we showed you.
And are prosecuting a Dutch journalist for pointing out the ethnicity of the people in the mob violence video we just showed you.
So it's happening everywhere.
The people that are doing it are emboldened and they're emboldened because A, they get away with it.
And B, the government covers up their actions so that the policy can continue.
And then this video went, I don't know, can I even show clip number seven?
I don't know either.
I mean, you can't really see anything.
Maybe I can just send the audience to go look for it.
I don't even want to show you.
It's a French woman sitting at a bus stop when a migrant fake asylum seeker comes up behind her, filming himself, and urinates on her head.
She's sitting at a bus stop, minding her own business.
Some random African dude comes up and films himself, and by the way, posts this video himself, Urinating on her.
Pissing on a stranger.
So, you gotta understand, it's not just the violence, right?
It's like there's this seething kind of chaotic hatred at the heart of all of this.
Where the innocent people of France, Germany, Netherlands, UK, Ireland, We haven't hurt anybody.
We've never hurt anybody whose ancestors never even did anything to anybody.
So, they never hurt anybody.
The people coming have never been hurt by European policies.
Their entire existence is the consequence of European generosity, keeping their birth rates high by, you know, delivering the food that they can't grow themselves.
And yet, they have this seething, violent, destructive impulse against the Europeans and their civilization.
And this is the thing.
It's because they're European.
It's because they're white.
They've not done anything wrong.
The dad walking down the street in Spain with a stroller Didn't do anything wrong.
The North Africans living off his tax dollars have nothing to be mad about.
They've suffered no injustice at the hands of the Europeans.
If anything, they have been given tremendous gifts by Europeans for generation upon generation.
This is the way they think.
This is the appreciation they show.
This is the response to the generosity of the Europeans.
When they're in their home countries, they'll send them food, keep them alive.
If a war breaks out, the UN will send troops to put it down.
You want to leave your country?
Come to our country.
You'll live off welfare.
You'll be fully protected.
You can commit crimes.
We won't even charge you.
We won't even publish your face in the newspaper.
Just endless generosity.
And the response is to kill these people.
So the man walking down the street with his baby didn't do anything wrong.
The teenager standing on the train didn't do anything wrong.
The Dutch kid walking through his own town did not deserve to be violently assaulted by 30 plus African men.
And the people reporting on it are not the real criminals.
But this is how warped everything is.
We get back on the other side.
I'll show you the people themselves.
Talking about why they do this.
I've got videos of migrants themselves explaining what they're in Europe to do.
unidentified
do.
harrison smith
It's almost worse than seeing the actual violence, is hearing these people gleefully expound it.
If you want to see what is really infuriating the European government right now, I'll show you.
I'll show you the video that has the European establishment in a fury.
No, it's not the video of the guy stabbing the babies at the playground.
It's not the video of the mob beating up the Dutch kid and throwing him on the train tracks.
It's not the random stabbing in French.
No, those videos, they didn't want to even want shown.
They didn't want you to even know that.
It's a crime to show those videos.
They're very concerned about those getting out.
They don't want to see that.
This video, however, has been systematically investigated by the Europeans.
Everyone in it has been identified.
They've published the names and faces of these people in national magazines, and they're now threatening years in prison for participating in what you're about to see.
Let's go now to clip number two.
unidentified
Yeah, that was it.
harrison smith
No, yeah, that was it actually.
That was the thing that they're infuriated over.
Not the stabbings, not the murders, not the mob beatings, not the killing of babies.
That needs to be covered up and hidden.
But that video represents an existential threat to the European system, and everybody involved has to be identified and severely punished.
And there is an interesting thing, we won't get too much into it here, but I've talked about it before.
In the way in which extrajudicial punishment is not bound by the constitutional rules of judicial punishment, so if what you're doing is not technically a crime, So you're not actually being charged by the government for it, then you don't have any protections that criminals typically have against prosecution.
And so they can do whatever they want.
So as an example, that video you just saw there of Germans singing a popular new song that says, foreigners out.
They didn't, it's, I mean, I don't know.
In Germany, they're calling it a crime.
They're calling it like race, you know, hatred or whatever.
So it is sort of a crime, but If you get charged with a crime in Germany, the media is prevented from, like, showing your face.
They have to blur out your face.
They have to put a black bar over your eyes.
So if you, you know, rape a child, your identity will be protected because of the legal procedures.
But if you just sing a song, and they want to destroy you for that, they publish your face everywhere.
There are no restrictions.
And this happens in America, too.
It's very bizarre.
But again, just like with the Me Too movement or, you know, prosecution of dissident activity by big tech, because what we're doing is not actually a crime, then they can basically prosecute us without giving us a chance to respond.
They don't have to adhere to habeas corpus or The Fifth Amendment.
I mean, none of those things come into play because it's not actually a crime.
So in a way, in this weird backward inversion of our system, it's the criminals that receive protection and You know, restrictions to identifying them and they get lawyers and they get a chance to respond.
It's the actual criminals who actually committed crime who get all of the protection that our constitutions provide.
But the people that just do things that the powers that be don't like can be punished severely outside of the law and get no protections and no restrictions from the state.
It's a bizarre sort of inversion, but it is the case.
It is what's actually happening.
And an extreme rate.
So let's hear from the asylum seekers themselves, the lovely, beautiful, innocent asylum seekers that are just looking for a better life, shall we?
We'll go first to clip number 10.
Ireland, of course, is a main hotspot for this invasion, as you've got The stated plan of replacing every single person in Ireland with someone from Africa.
I mean, I'm not even joking.
The population of Ireland is 5 million and the stated goal of the immigration office is to bring in 4 million people.
So bringing in 4 million people to an island of 5 million, that's genocide.
That's almost complete replacement.
And it would be and it will be complete replacement because the people they're bringing in are violent psychopaths.
that are living off the state and love having huge families.
So that's what's happening.
So let's go now to clip number 10.
Here's a migrant in Ireland who's been given a place to live.
He's been given funds by the state.
He just showed up one day and has been given everything and here's how he responds.
unidentified
The next time these dirty racist people in this country oppress me and my family in this country, I'm taking a tool, I'm strapping up and I'm going house to house.
And I advise every migrant in this country, if you grew up in this country and your document was taken away from you unlawfully, strap up and go house to house and be Santa Claus in reverse.
You go down the chimney and take all the presents and give to your kid because your children deserve a life too, not just theirs.
You're in this country, you're supposed to be documented and you're supposed to be able to work and provide for your family.
They did it to me and they're lucky I didn't go from house to house and taking everything that they had.
harrison smith
They're lucky I didn't get a tool and go house to house killing and robbing everybody in the neighborhood.
They're oppressing him in his free house.
In a country he doesn't belong in.
I mean, is it clear?
Is it becoming clear?
This is not about humanitarianism.
This is about importing violent, hateful, genocidal freaks.
Carry out murder campaigns, like that's the purpose of this, that's why this is happening.
Again, that was one saying it, right?
We're gonna go house to house, murdering all of the Irish people, these dirty racists, right?
Because they don't want to surrender, they don't want to just give their entire island and entire nation to random criminals that show up on their shores.
That's racist, of course, because that's what they've been told, because the media plays a big part in priming these people.
Let's go to clip number eight here.
Here's an Eritrean asylum seeker.
I'm just letting you know.
Immigration is not a humanitarian thing.
They don't appreciate it.
It's punishment for the European people.
The European people are being punished because they are happy and healthy and have success and prosperity.
That's their crime and the migrants are there to punish them for it.
unidentified
Let's watch.
So I'm African.
I'm from Eritrea.
Britain tore my country apart.
It tore my continent apart.
The rest of the world up for quite a long time.
But it enabled your family to come here and seek refuge, presumably?
But we came here because of what?
because of the condition that Britain left my country in.
That's why I'm here.
So you feel uncomfortable with your Britishness, whether you like your British passport or whatever?
There's a British passport, yeah, I feel completely uncomfortable with it, and I feel ashamed and it hurts.
And when someone gives me a form and says, what do you want to put on it, black African or black British, and if they prompt black British, I feel really, really upset.
Like, it really hurts.
This country owes the rest of the world anything it wants.
Because of what it's done.
I disagree because who will be funding that?
The taxpayers, and it's not their fault for previous...
No, it is.
No, it is.
harrison smith
It doesn't matter.
It doesn't matter?
You didn't do anything?
Do you want to hear the history of Britain in Eritrea?
I mean, just every aspect of this, right?
Eritrea is a crap hole.
I mean, it's hell on earth.
It's just death and misery.
It's a terrible place.
This guy comes to Britain and says, I am your punishment.
I'm here to deliver punishment.
I'm here to take anything I want, and you have to give it to me because this is your punishment, Europe, for what you did to our- You want to know what England did to Eritrea?
British administration.
Through the 1941 Battle of Cairn, the British expelled the Italians and took over the administration of the country.
The British placed Eritrea under British military administration until Allied forces could determine its fate.
It was there until 1950.
So for nine years, the British administration occupied Eritrea during wartime, and it was totally peaceful.
And so because of that, you all have to die.
unidentified
Welcome back, ladies and gentlemen.
We'll move on now.
harrison smith
I guess we'll move on.
A lot of other stuff to talk about, but I really feel like what's happening in Europe and America right now, obviously we're under the same migration program that Europe is, where people who have been taught to despise us and to blame white people for all of their problems,
Are being brought into white countries and given legal cover to abuse and exploit the people there.
And they don't even think they're doing anything wrong.
They think what they're doing is righteous retribution for their own countries being unmitigated hell holes.
As if that was something the Europeans did to them.
So again, you've got this Eritrean guy.
By the way, Eritrea routinely ranks on the list of human rights violations number one or two.
I mean, it's a hellish place, truly.
But this guy, being given citizenship They don't even have citizenship.
He's a subject of the British crown.
He's given a life in the UK where everything's paid for by the taxpayers.
But it's not enough.
It's not enough.
Because it will never be enough.
Because like he said, he said, you people need to give us whatever we want.
And they want everything.
unidentified
He's not shy about it.
harrison smith
Because he thinks it's retribution.
He thinks And this is just how simple it is.
Europe has things.
Africa doesn't.
Europe must have taken it from Africa.
I mean, it's this... it's this... greed and envy and... stupidity, honestly.
I mean, you gotta be low IQ to not understand... history.
And people don't even push back, because they don't know.
They have no idea.
They think Britain did destroy Eritrea.
Why not?
I mean, that's the narrative that's pushed.
It comes from the media.
It comes from the government themselves.
They'll probably build a statue of this guy to apologize for how they treated Eritrea.
Reminder, Britain's participation in Eritrea, they took it over from the Italians during World War II for nine years and then gave it back.
It was probably one of the only times in Eritrea's history that there weren't insane violations of human rights.
It's probably the only nine year stretch in all of Eritrean history where you didn't have mass killings and brutalization of the people by the government.
But none of that matters.
The nuance doesn't matter.
The reality doesn't matter.
The idea being put forward is Europe responsible for everything bad, take vengeance on them.
They deserve to be destroyed.
They deserve to be stabbed.
They deserve for you to go house to house with the tool, taking what you want.
Because they have things and you don't, and that's all that matters.
They have peace and prosperity.
unidentified
They have stuff.
harrison smith
And instead of thinking, Well, they have all this stuff and they have all this comfort and they have a society that I want to be a part of because they're all decent and moral and hardworking and law-abiding.
That doesn't make any sense to these people.
They're just like, no, they just have things that I want.
I'm going to take them because it's unfair that they have them and I don't.
The guy literally said that.
So again, yeah, nine years of British rule during World War II where nothing of any note happened.
And that apparently is enough to justify everything in England belonging to some random Eritrean guy with an IQ of 65.
Okay.
All right.
Just so we're clear.
Eritrea, by the way, at this moment is a one-party state in which national legislative elections have been repeatedly postponed.
According to Human Rights Watch, the government's human rights record is considered among the worst in the world.
Most countries have accused the Eritrean authorities of arbitrary arrests and detentions and of obtaining an unknown number of people without charge for their political activism.
Both male and female same-sex sexual activity are illegal in Eritrea.
And it goes on and on.
So because their country is a tyrannical, despotic, hellish failure, that is enough for them to see the countries that aren't like that and say it's their fault.
No, it's their fault we're like this.
I'm always tempted, I'm always tempted just to, just to revisit.
What Africa was like before Europeans showed up.
Should we hear some of that while we're on the topic?
From Burton's Africa.
To travelers, the African is, of course, less civil than to merchants for whom he expects to gain something.
He will effuse a mouthful of water out of his abundance to a man dying of thirst, utterly unsympathizing.
He will not stretch out a hand to save another's goods, though worth thousands of dollars.
The Traveler cannot practice pity.
He is ever in the dilemma of maltreating or being maltreated.
Were he to deal civilly and liberally with this people, he would starve.
It is vain to offer a price for even the necessaries of life.
It would be certainly refused because more is wanted, and so beyond the bounds of possibility.
Anyway, it just goes on and on.
are importunate beggars who specify their long list of wants without stint or shame.
Their principal demand is tobacco, which does not grow on the land, and they resemble the Samal, who never cite a stranger without stretching out the hand for Bori.
These men are idle and debauched, spending their days in unbroken revelry and drunkenness, while the girls and women hoe the fields and the boys tend to the flocks and herds.
Anyway, it just goes on and on.
It goes on and on.
And again, it's just the idea that, like, Europe destroyed Africa.
unidentified
It's nonsense.
harrison smith
It's utter ridiculous nonsense.
But it's the lie that's being used to justify extremely violent behavior by the Africans against the Europeans.
And... ...egged on, given the... - Yeah.
Mental justification they need to do these things.
It is horrible.
All right, let's move on now.
We'll move on to other horrible things, shall we?
Let's go to clip number four here because this is a story that's been going viral.
I didn't think it was legit at first, but it's people showing videos of watermelons that are like rubbery.
And I just thought it was an old watermelon.
I thought like these people just have like a Watermelon or it's like frozen so the texture looks weird but apparently this is a real thing.
Chemically injected watermelons are hitting American grocery stores this summer.
Let's look at clip number four here.
unidentified
I'm cutting open this watermelon here and as you can see when I pat the flesh it looks pretty red.
Now here's an entirely different watermelon and look what happens when I pat the flesh.
Look at the difference between these two.
The one with the dark red has definitely been treated with or injected, even worse, injected with a chemical called erythrocene.
Erythroxine makes watermelons look redder, but here's the big issue.
Erythroxine is a gut toxin that is made from petroleum that could damage your microbiome and it's a bioaccumulator, meaning it can be stored in the fatty tissues of the body.
It can affect a person's brain and possibly even their hormones and make them sick over time.
And the worst part is you and your family have probably been eating erythroxine for years because it's found in just about everything.
Like breakfast cereals, watch out kids, dairy products, frozen foods, juice drinks, again, we have to watch out for our kids, and so much more.
harrison smith
Of course, watermelons aren't the only ones, and look, watermelons already, I mean seedless watermelons have been around since I was a little kid.
They're not exactly the most natural thing, I don't know if I need to tell you this, but food that doesn't produce seeds I would die off in a single generation, so something untoward is happening here.
Let's go to clip 19.
This woman got an apple from Universal Studios Resort in October of last year that hasn't rotted yet.
Let's watch.
unidentified
October 2023.
October 4th, 2023.
I got this apple from Universal Studios Resort I was staying in.
I put it in my backpack and I thought, wow, that apple will be a perfect snack for later when I'm at the theme park and I need something a little bit refreshing.
I forgot about the apple.
I found it a week later when I'm home, and the apple was in perfect condition.
I thought, interesting, I don't know any apple that could last the heat for that long and be in perfect condition.
Today, it is April 30th, 2024, and this is the apple.
It has developed its first bruise.
It has been in my refrigerator, sitting in the back, waiting, waiting and waiting for it to go bad, but it does not go bad.
What?
Are you putting in these apples?
Where are you getting these apples?
This is not Disney World.
Keep your poison apples to yourself.
I hadn't thought about that.
harrison smith
And there have been other videos of this, too.
People showing strawberries left out for a week without rotting.
Our food is poison.
It's all fake.

I want your predictions about the Donald Trump lawsuit, the verdict, the decision, the deliberations are being made as we speak.
I believe they're actually probably still in the instruction level of things.
But it could be today, it could be tomorrow that the decision comes down as to whether or not to send Donald Trump to jail for 34 felony counts for what is in reality a single misdemeanor for covering up a crime that didn't happen.
unidentified
Okay.
harrison smith
Okay.
I want to hear your thoughts on this, what you think is going to happen, what you think should happen, what you think You think the Democrats are going to treat this?
I mean, we know how they're going to treat it.
They're going to just.
They're just waiting to be able to say convicted felon Donald Trump, but he was convicted of a felony.
Sure, it was a show trial.
None of the procedures that they went through had any legitimacy or validity.
None of the charges brought would have been brought against anybody else, which is something admitted by the legal experts on the left.
They know what they're doing.
And yet they're doing it anyway.
What do you think the outcome of that's going to be?
Give us a call.
Let me know.
Professor Jeffrey Sachs is a very interesting figure in modern American politics.
Maybe I'll pull up an article that talks about his transformation by Ron Unz, who wrote about this.
And the fact is that Jeffrey Sachs for decades was a preeminent
Academic and because of his bona fides because he was so well respected in academic circles He has found himself free to Break out of the Overton window and discuss the reality of geopolitics and American policy and so of course he's being Savaged across mainstream media
The thing is, he's too imminent for them to say he's a crazy conspiracy theorist.
They've already ladled on so much respect and admiration for him.
They can't just go back on this.
So he did an interview with Tucker Carlson.
The whole thing is very interesting.
But he talked in particular about a topic we've talked about on Moonbase a few times, and that is the NATO attack on Serbia.
In 1999 and how that relates to what's going on today and with NATO and Ukraine and You know Israel's attacks on you know Christian sites and essentially if you see this from a religious perspective this was the American Government going to war with
Orthodox Christians at the behest of and for the benefit of radical Muslims.
So again, I mean, it sort of comports with the rest of what we're talking about today with the Islamic immigration.
There has, for the last several decades, been a war against Christianity and the So everything is phony, what we say.
Everything is a lie.
looking into what happened with Yugoslavia and Serbia and Kosovo in the late '90s can really illustrate that to a terrifying degree.
So let's go now to clip number 14.
This is Professor Jeffrey Sachs and Tucker Carlson discussing how the globalists orchestrated NATO's bombing of Yugoslavia in 1999.
jeffrey sachs
So everything is phony what we say.
Everything is a lie.
But just to say, the U.S.
kept doing unilateral things that were really outrageous.
In 1999, we bombed Belgrade for 78 days.
Bad move.
Absolutely.
We bombed a capital of Europe for 78 days.
What was, looking back, what was the point of that?
The point of that was to break Serbia into, create a new Welcome back, folks.
harrison smith
We're taking calls on the Trump trial outcome, and we'll actually be joined in the next segment by a person in the field.
What do they call that?
His name is Sean and he's there on the ground outside of the courthouse where it's a strange atmosphere with Robert De Niro wandering around.
We have received word that the jury instruction has ended and the deliberation has begun.
Judge Juan Merchan has concluded his jury instructions.
The jury of 12, 7 men and 5 women will determine whether Trump is guilty of 34 felony charges for falsifying business records related to hush money payment to an adult film star before the 2016 election.
Trump also faces three other criminal cases while running again for president.
He's pleaded not guilty to the charges.
A felony conviction of the former president, presumptive GOP nominee, would be unprecedented.
If convicted, the judge could sentence Trump to probation or a prison sentence.
Merchant says the jury will work until 4 30 PM today.
And if they stay late going forward, it's unlikely they'd work later than 6 PM.
Again, they're not expecting to.
Have an outcome today, but it could be today if they decide quick enough.
I really hope they take their time.
Really hope they understand the gravity.
Of their responsibility.
And aren't just going to flippantly decide one way or another.
That would be... Well, it'd be appropriate.
I guess it'd be appropriate.
It might add to the general lack of confidence people have in this.
But of course, he's doubled down and reiterated his truly unprecedented stance.
That they don't have to agree on the crime they're convicting Trump of.
I'm telling you, I watch a lot of true crime.
I've watched a lot of courtroom procedures in the past.
I mean hundreds of hours.
It's fascinating because it's real life drama playing out.
I have never heard of this.
This is, maybe a lawyer can call in and correct me, I have never, ever heard of anything remotely like this.
In fact, every time I've heard of anything like this, it's how this type of deliberation is explicitly denounced.
So what Judge Merchant says, he's told the jury they do not need unanimity to convict.
Four of the jurors could agree on the first crime, falsifying records.
Four could agree on the second crime, tax violation.
Four could agree on the third crime, federal elections violation.
and Merchant will count this as a unanimous guilty verdict from a 12-member jury.
Maybe we need a lawyer.
If a lawyer can call in in the next five minutes. - Yes.
Am I crazy or is this not just unprecedented?
An American judicial practice, but is the opposite of what is normally instructed.
I mean, that's this is not.
How this works.
And this happens all the time where you have a criminal or a suspect who is being charged with multiple crimes.
There's never a time where it's like, well, he's being charged with, you know, gross endangerment and.
First degree murder and unlawful discharge of a gun.
And if you think he did the murder and you think he discharged the gun, but don't think he did the murder and you think that he did the, you know, the first one, but not the second two, then just say guilty and we'll just say guilty and he'll just be guilty of one.
I mean, this is so strange, so bizarre, so unheard of.
It's really hard to wrap my mind around.
I mean, If nothing else, I would think this would be a massive opportunity for an appeal court.
Judge Merchant told the jury they do not need unanimity to convict.
Four could agree on one crime, four on a different one, and four on the other.
He would treat it as a unanimous verdict.
That's called rigging the outcome, folks.
That's not the way this is supposed to work at all.
And I'm I'm shocked that, I mean, this is how far it's going.
It's crazy that it's getting this, but it also represents the obvious desperation that the judge and the prosecution feel to get this conviction.
You wouldn't need to issue an order like this if you had proved one of these, right?
If they'd proven one of these crimes, You wouldn't have to say, ah, pick and choose.
Pick whichever one you want.
If you think he's guilty of one of these and not the other two, just say guilty.
I mean, this is crazy.
I mean, literally, I'm speechless that they would do this.
That's just wild.
Again, I've never heard of anything like this.
I've seen a lot of cases where there's multiple charges and they explicitly make it clear that, like, you can't Say he's guilty for first-degree murder because you think he's guilty of having a gun.
These are separate charges, totally distinct from one another.
You've got to decide on one and the other.
These are different.
For them to say, yeah, if you think he's guilty of one thing, we'll just convict him for all of it.
Okay.
I just, I can't even believe that this is happening.
It's totally mad.
And I would hope that the appeal court would reverse it on this decision alone.
Again, If a lawyer can call in and tell me I'm wrong, I would love to know it, because as far as I can tell, that instruction to the jury, I've never heard of that in my life.
Let's go back out to your calls now.
Mr. Process in Wisconsin calls it a witch hunt.
Go ahead on line one, Mr. Process in Wisconsin.
Go ahead.
unidentified
Hey Harrison, how are you doing today?
harrison smith
Good, thank you.
unidentified
Yeah, I think this whole thing with the Trump trial is part of how Alex Jones and Trump called it that it was just going to be a big witch hunt process.
And, you know, no one should be surprised about this type of thing happening because it's just part of the thing they've been doing for a long time.
And I think it's really interesting because it's on its face and proving that Trump is indeed like the You know, the candidate and he's the Supreme Candidate because otherwise, why would they go after him so hard?
harrison smith
They're literally destroying all of their own credibility.
They're sacrificing everything they claim to believe in to get Donald Trump.
So yeah, you're exactly right.
It proves really beyond, beyond any reasonable doubt that they despise Trump.
He's the real deal and they're willing to do anything to destroy him.
And it's, uh, Really desperate.
I mean, it's really pathetic what they're doing.
Thanks for the call, Mr. Process.
Let's go to Sean in California.
You think he's going to be declared guilty, do you, Sean?
sean in california
Yes, I do, Harrison.
You hear me clear this time?
harrison smith
Yep.
sean in california
Awesome.
Here's where I'm going with this.
A while back, we know that the government abdicated its responsibility by using AI to pick these jurors and stacking juries.
Shadowgate would be a documentary to refer to.
You guys are kind of close to that issue.
harrison smith
Sean, I'm sorry, if you can stay on the line.
Trump apparently is addressing the crowd.
If we can go to that video.
Sorry to interrupt you, Sean, but the king is addressing us.
If we can bring up Trump's statements and maybe rewind it back a few seconds to the beginning.
unidentified
Thank you very much.
donald j trump
I would say, in listening to the charges from the judge, who's, as you know, very conflicted and corrupt, because of the confliction, very, very corrupt.
Mother Teresa could not beat these charges.
These charges are rigged.
The whole thing is rigged.
The whole country's a mess between the borders and fake elections and you have a trial like this where the judge is so conflicted he can't breathe.
He's got to do his job.
unidentified
He doesn't sound very optimistic.
harrison smith
We'll be right back.
We'll show you more of that.
It's the final segment of American Journal today.
We've got a lot to get in here and of course you'll want to stay tuned to InfoWars as I'm sure Alex Jones will be bringing live coverage of the developments with the Trump trial.
The judge's instructions have ended Trump has made a statement to the crowd outside.
We'll finish up with that statement and then go to a correspondent we have outside of the courtroom to get a live look at what the area surrounding this historic event looks and sounds like.
Let's go now to Donald Trump's statements minutes ago.
donald j trump
It's a disgrace.
And I mean that.
Mother Teresa could not make those choices.
unidentified
But we'll see.
donald j trump
We'll see how we do.
It's a very disgraceful situation.
Every single legal scholar and expert said this is no case, it shouldn't be brought, and it certainly could have been brought seven years ago, not in the middle of a presidential election.
It was all done by Joe Biden.
This judge contributed to Joe Biden.
And far worse than that, but I'm not allowed to talk about it because I have a gag order.
Far worse than that.
By a thousand times worse than that.
The worst I've ever heard, but I can't talk about it.
unidentified
It'll be talked about, but I'm not allowed to talk about it.
donald j trump
But it'll be talked about in the history books.
What's happening here is weaponization at a level that nobody's seen before ever.
And it shouldn't be allowed to happen.
So I'll stay around here.
This is five weeks.
And five weeks of really essentially not campaigning, although I took a big lead in the polls over the last few weeks.
Something's going on.
Because I think the people of this country see that this is a rigged deal.
It's a weaponized deal for the Democrats to hit their political opponent.
For Joe Biden, the worst president in the history of the United States.
He's destroying our country.
He's letting millions of people from jails, from prisons, from insane asylums, from mental institutions, drug dealers pour in.
Venezuela, if you look at their crime statistics, they've gone down 72% in crime because they're releasing all their criminals into our country because of this horrible president that we have.
And then they have a protest of Robert De Niro yesterday.
He's a fool.
He's a broken-down fool standing out there.
He got maggot.
He got maggot yesterday.
He got a big dose of it.
But I just want to say it's a very unfair trial.
It should have never happened.
If it was going to happen, it should have happened seven years ago.
As you know, Bragg didn't want to bring it.
The Southern District didn't bring it.
The FEC didn't bring it.
This judge didn't even let us use the number one election attorney.
He's making the rules.
He doesn't know anything about elections.
He doesn't know anything about voting and vote counts.
He doesn't know anything about this stuff.
That's not his profession.
We had the leading election expert in the country, Brad Smith, ready to testify.
I wouldn't let him do it.
They wouldn't let another gentleman who represented, and you know very well, you saw it, it was the worst I think I've ever seen anyone treated on a stand.
Bob Costello.
Wouldn't let him talk about all of the hundreds of emails that he was sent by a gentleman, another gentleman, who I can't mention because I'm gagged.
Every time I speak to you, you ask me simple questions.
I'm not allowed to give you the answer because I'm gagged by this judge.
But we have a very, very serious problem here.
I mean, our country's going bad.
And remember, and let me just leave you with this.
This is all because of Joe Biden and his... And I don't even think it's him.
I don't think he's smart enough to think about it.
But it's the people that surround him in the office.
They're smart.
They're fascists, they're communists, but they're smart.
And they're ruining our country.
But we're going to win this election.
November 5th is going to be the most important day in the history of our country.
We're going to take back our country from these fascists and these thugs that are destroying us with inflation and with everything they do, how stupid they are, allowing 15, 16, 17 million people into our country, totally unvetted, totally unchecked.
We're going to bring back our nation November 5th.
Remember, most important day.
In the history of our country.
In the meantime, this trial is rigged.
Thank you.

So very powerful, but not very optimistic words from President Trump.
He says Mother Teresa could get convicted on this.
CNN agrees with them.
Here's a quick video of them breaking down Judge Merchant's bizarre choices in the jury instructions.
unidentified
Even if he himself did not falsify the business record, as long as, as they mentioned in the closing argument, if he made or caused the false entry.
They're making this very expansive as part of the cast analogy.
harrison smith
Expansive.
unidentified
He doesn't have to be the person to have actually recorded it.
That's very important because they don't have the direct evidence that Donald Trump actually recorded that information.
You have invoices, you've got ledgers, you've got checks.
harrison smith
So think about that.
They're saying that...
They don't have evidence that Trump committed the crime, so the jury instructions are you don't have to have evidence that he committed the crime.
You can still convict him, even though no evidence has been presented that he knew about or had anything to do with the alleged transaction that forms the basis of this crime.
So they say it's very expansive, which is why Don Trump says Mother Teresa could get convicted on this.
Because it's absurd.
They're literally saying somebody else did something, but you can convict Donald Trump for it, even though we haven't shown evidence that Trump knew anything about the thing that happened.
Absurd.
We have a friend outside of the courtroom right now.
Sean, he's a Christian rapper.
You can follow him on X at DVS7 underscore zero.
Thank you so much for joining us, Sean.
What is the atmosphere like outside of the courtroom there?
unidentified
Oh, man, it's as usual, it's a whole lot of support.
News is all over the place.
Trying to catch up.
We caught this painting here that Scott Labato did.
Everybody rushed to the scene to get this beautiful work of art.
But there's nothing but support out here as usual.
And here's a little zoom in to the Trump face here.
And now we got Robert De Niro right there.
That's fantastic.
Acrylic on canvas by Scott Labato, the one and only.
But yeah, man, we're just having a lot of fun here.
harrison smith
Wow, so there are not a lot of protesters out?
I expected it to be sort of raucous with supporters and detractors, but it's mostly supporters there, huh?
unidentified
I think the police is doing a really good job of keeping the problem starters out of the way.
And so over here so far, as long as I've been here, I've seen nothing but support.
You know, people bringing food and drinks to care for each other and all that stuff.
And it's just always a really good and happy vibe out here.
Wow.
harrison smith
Well, hopefully it stays that way.
unidentified
I mean, obviously we've got to get in shouting matches.
harrison smith
Yeah.
unidentified
Obviously we've got to get in shouting matches with people like DeNiro every now and then.
harrison smith
Right, well, and for our radio listeners, the picture is the classic Rocky image with Trump as Rocky and De Niro knocked out on the ground.
Scott, that is amazing.
Did you, I mean, you didn't start painting this yesterday, did you?
I guess the De Niro-Trump combat goes back a while.
Tell us about this painting.
unidentified
Yeah, actually, if this was already done, I had a different base on it, and I was like, So I had to come up with something clever, and last night in my studio, they said, there it is.
Because I missed Donald Trump.
I missed De Niro by 10 minutes.
Thank God he was here, because he gave a piece of mind like I was going to.
So I had to do something creative.
And I said, that's it.
He's a crybaby.
He thinks that Donald Trump, you know, Donald Trump will, if he took his lips off his shoes, Donald Trump would still talk the hell out of him.
Not necessarily literally speaking.
After this is all over, he's going to take these people down like De Niro.
Probably was on that island from that famous guy who killed himself.
harrison smith
Allegedly.
Allegedly.
Maybe something like that might have happened here or there.
Yesterday he got heckled and basically ran away from all the Trump supporters.
Was De Niro there again today causing a scene?
unidentified
No, he's curled up somewhere in a mall.
That's where the whole world is.
Just look on social media, man.
They were abused and they got hit.
And rightfully so.
For him, the dad boss, haters of democracy, working people, when he's in his ivory tower, he doesn't know the price of eggs.
He doesn't care.
He doesn't care about the crime because he has security around him.
harrison smith
Exactly.
He doesn't understand.
unidentified
It's nothing but a Karen, a little crybaby, and his time is coming.
harrison smith
Well, that's a beautiful painting and very appropriate for what we're seeing on a day-to-day basis.
Tell me, is the atmosphere there positive and are you expecting a not guilty verdict?
Are you expecting a guilty verdict?
Are people waiting on pins and needles?
I mean, what's the attitude of the people that are gathered there awaiting this decision?
unidentified
I think the attitude is positive because either way it goes, we're in for it.
I mean, if they put Trump in jail, He's just gonna get higher on the polls.
We're not afraid of it.
Either way, just make him, you know... We watch him get persecuted.
Just like we get persecuted, he's gonna be an even bigger monster.
So whether he does or doesn't...
We're in for it, and we're positive about it.
Just look at his face when he walks in and out of court.
Look at his face.
And if you know who John Wayne is, John Wayne would walk into a bar, guns blazing at him, and he's got that confident smirk on his face.
harrison smith
John Wayne.
unidentified
He's John Wayne.
harrison smith
That is exactly right.
And man, what a historic moment.
We await the decision.
I think you're right.
I think, you know, either way, either Trump gets a lot bigger and better and, you know, gets even more support or he's found not guilty and we deprive the Democrat of their precious talking point being able to call him a Convicted felon.
Well, thank you so much for bringing us that report.
It's Sean Christian rapper at DVS7 underscore zero on X and of course Scott Lovato with his beautiful work of art folks.

When we came out with Nitric Boost three years ago, it was a sleeper product.
I didn't even promote it.
But as listeners began to use it, it has become one of our top selling products because of the incredible results they get.
If you want to give your cardiovascular system a leg up, if you want to go in and help clean out and purify your blood, ladies and gentlemen, Nitric Boost is the way to go.

Like, but you notice what happens in the morning if you're a man.
I feel like I'm 16 years old again.
When I was 16, I'd already had probably, I hate to brag, so I'm not bragging.
It's actually shameful.
Probably 150 women or more.
