=== World War IV Is Kinetic (03:55) ===

[00:00:10]  Malcolm X said, and I quote, we live in one of the rottenest countries that has ever existed on this earth.
[00:00:19]  What do you think about the U.S.A.?
[00:00:20]  What do you think about the U.S.A.?
[00:00:21]  When I think about the U.S.A., it should burn!
[00:00:26]  Congressman Tale, Fox News.
[00:00:28]  I don't talk to Fox News.
[00:00:30]  in your district people were chanting death to america do you condemn talk to fox news Do you condemn chance of death to America?
[00:00:39]  I don't talk to people that use racist tropes.
[00:00:42]  We have all these proxy wars going on.
[00:00:44]  What's happening in the Caribbean with Venezuela, what's happening with Iran, what's happening with Russia, and all these different allied forces fighting with each other.
[00:00:53]  That's the definition of a world war.
[00:00:57]  And that's what all of the mainline analysts are saying.
[00:01:01]  If this really is World War IV, that's what the Pentagon is actually calling it in the academic papers that the United States is fighting right now.
[00:01:09]  China just cut off all rare earth mineral exports to anybody that works for the U.S.
[00:01:13]  They control 95% of it, okay?
[00:01:15]  The globals allow them to be in position like that.
[00:01:18]  So what happens if China successfully cuts off rare earth mineral supplies to the U.S. for a protracted period of time?
[00:01:27]  Is this really the apocalypse for our war machine in many respects?
[00:01:32]  Or is this all just sort of tutting by the Chinese in lieu of getting a good deal from us?
[00:01:39]  Yeah, I don't think the defense industry will get rares from now on.
[00:01:42]  It's not a ban.
[00:01:43]  Commercial industry.
[00:01:44]  Yeah, commercial industries will get it.
[00:01:48]  You had a major car maker here go down.
[00:01:50]  They shut down this a few months ago for two months.
[00:01:52]  They didn't have the rare earth magnets from China.
[00:01:54]  They got restarted, but like they really had to get Trump on the phone to call China.
[00:01:59]  So the defense industry won't get it.
[00:02:01]  They're going to put export control.
[00:02:04]  So China is a very controlled economy.
[00:02:06]  You have to have licenses for importing, for exporting.
[00:02:10]  They're going to make sure, okay, Ford, you're going to buy, or GM or whoever, you're going to buy 50,000 rare earth magnets that has X amount of grams of rare earth.
[00:02:18]  That's all you're getting.
[00:02:19]  So they're going to make sure this doesn't go into the U.S. defense supply chain.
[00:02:23]  I think that's kind of a given.
[00:02:24]  I don't think they're going to get any.
[00:02:26]  This is absolutely out of control.
[00:02:28]  Commander of U.S. Army Pacific, you saw this firsthand in Alaska.
[00:02:34]  What did you see?
[00:02:35]  I took an intelligence briefing and I was stunned to find out the amount of penetrations that had been happening at our bases up there by Chinese nationals that were in the United States.
[00:02:47]  These individuals were going to the gate.
[00:02:49]  Some of them were getting into the installations.
[00:02:52]  And when they were getting into the installations, they would have cameras and unmanned aerial vehicles in the trunks of their cars.
[00:03:00]  So, and these things were also happening off the installations, flying in and around our installations, in and around our training areas.
[00:03:07]  We have an enormous training area up in Alaska.
[00:03:10]  The Donley and Yukon training areas is probably the largest ground and air space that we have in the United States Army, and it's in Alaska.
[00:03:20]  And so Russia and China are serious about their activities up there.
[00:03:25]  I think Russia has always been serious about it.
[00:03:28]  I think China has woken up to its seriousness about it because of the gains that it can be made.
[00:03:34]  And then I also think that securing our northern flank from threats, be they missile or be they economic threats where we don't have access of our reach over the Arctic Ocean and that we get penetrated by adversaries in ways that would put the United States and the Western Hemisphere at risk.
[00:03:54]  So we're in the new world war.
[00:03:56]  And that's what all the big think tanks have been saying for a couple years, but now it's official, okay?
[00:04:00]  You've got all these different proxy wars going on.
[00:04:02]  This is the new world war.
[00:04:04]  Now, the CIA called the Cold War World War III.

=== New Global Conflict Begins (14:13) ===

[00:04:06]  I agree with that term.
[00:04:07]  This is really World War IV, and it's getting kinetic.
[00:04:10]  It's economic, it's cultural, and it's incredibly dangerous.
[00:04:14]  You'll be laying in your bed one night.
[00:04:16]  You're going to be driving down the highway after work, and there'll be big flashes you see.
[00:04:21]  And then 10 seconds later, your car is going to be overturned, probably on fire.
[00:04:25]  And then life is you know, it's over.
[00:04:27]  You won't get back to your family.
[00:04:29]  There'll be mass starvation and death.
[00:04:31]  And there'll be a new literal dark age with enough dust in the atmosphere to cause a mini ice age.
[00:04:38]  And they estimate 7 billion people will die in a nuclear war.
[00:04:43]  There'll be maybe 500 million left, which is what these death cult people fetish all day long.
[00:05:02]  Not Israel.
[00:05:03]  Are you a boomer?
[00:05:04]  You sound like a boomer to me.
[00:05:06]  You sound like you're pro-Iran.
[00:05:08]  I'm pro-America.
[00:05:09]  I'm pro-anti-foreign entanglement.
[00:05:11]  That's hype for you.
[00:05:13]  I think our politicians today, who are baby boomers, have this country up.
[00:05:18]  That's why I gave Bernie Sanders so much money.
[00:05:24]  We came out here to West Campus looking for answers.
[00:05:26]  We wanted to see how the American people felt.
[00:05:28]  Were they pro- or anti-war?
[00:05:30]  Now, I was thinking I'd talk to a lot of younger people that were passionate about being anti-war, and there was a fair share of that, but there was also the boomer, the appearance of the wild boomer, and the debate, discussion, argument with him.
[00:05:43]  What is it about?
[00:05:44]  What is the soul of the boomer?
[00:05:45]  Is the boomer self-loathing?
[00:05:46]  Does the boomer engage in what aboutism?
[00:05:48]  Why do they support Israel?
[00:05:50]  Why do they support endless wars in the Middle East?
[00:05:52]  Well, you're about to find out, and it's up to you to decide who you agree or disagree with.
[00:05:56]  I'm Rex Jones with Gray Area, Gray Area Network, out here on the streets of Austin, Texas, getting the work in, on the field, getting things done.
[00:06:04]  Look, this whole war in Iran is a proposition, but it is a necessary one.
[00:06:10]  Okay.
[00:06:11]  Because Iran has been a cancer in the Middle East for a long time.
[00:06:16]  And this war is like chemotherapy, getting rid of the cancer.
[00:06:20]  It's a no-win situation.
[00:06:23]  I've studied history for a long time.
[00:06:25]  And I, you know, we tried the appeasement and make a deal with them.
[00:06:30]  And that's what Obama did.
[00:06:32]  But that was very much like what Neville Chamberlain did in 1938.
[00:06:36]  With Hitler, you're referring to.
[00:06:38]  You can't make peace with people who are crazy.
[00:06:41]  The Nazis were crazy.
[00:06:42]  These guys running Iran are crazy.
[00:06:45]  You can't make, you can't reason.
[00:06:47]  I have a question.
[00:06:48]  So, Netanyahu has been saying that they're going to have a nuke for about 37 years.
[00:06:52]  And this is the big thing.
[00:06:53]  Do you think they've always been that close to a nuclear weapon?
[00:06:55]  Is that the main concern in your mind?
[00:06:57]  Is that what gets you out to vote?
[00:07:00]  I think that Iran, it doesn't matter if they're going to have it in 37 years tomorrow or in 50 years.
[00:07:08]  I don't care.
[00:07:09]  The fact of the matter is, these guys, because of their belief system, they're fanatics.
[00:07:16]  And they don't give a fine of what happens.
[00:07:20]  If they got these kind of weapons, we use them.
[00:07:22]  If they got nuclear weapons, we use them because it's part of their poor fanatical religious belief system.
[00:07:30]  Okay, what do you think about us killing the Ayatollah, the man who had the FATWA, the religious order to ban nuclear weapons?
[00:07:35]  What do you think about us killing that guy?
[00:07:37]  He signed a rule.
[00:07:38]  It's a crime against God over there to have a nuke.
[00:07:41]  I would like to believe it, but I don't believe it.
[00:07:43]  I don't think...
[00:07:45]  Two CIA Senate reports...
[00:07:46]  You can watch Tulsi Gabber talk about it live on YouTube.
[00:07:48]  Look it up right now.
[00:07:50]  I understand what you're saying.
[00:07:52]  And, you know, I just think that my problem is I know too much about history.
[00:07:58]  That's the thing.
[00:07:59]  And unfortunately, we have to do this.
[00:08:02]  It stinks.
[00:08:02]  It sucks.
[00:08:03]  I've lost a lot of money because of it.
[00:08:06]  It's inconvenienced a lot of people.
[00:08:08]  It's hurt a lot of people, killed a lot of people.
[00:08:11]  But you have to look at what Iran has done ever since this has been run by these nutcakes.
[00:08:18]  Is the United States subservient to the state of Israel?
[00:08:22]  No, I do not believe that.
[00:08:24]  I'm not anti-Semitic.
[00:08:25]  I'm pro-Israel.
[00:08:27]  And the reason why I'm pro-Israel is because I think, have you ever been to Dachau?
[00:08:32]  You're talking about the Holocaust and stuff like that, right?
[00:08:34]  What does that have to do with the modern state of Israel?
[00:08:36]  It has everything to do with it.
[00:08:38]  Because if you go there or you go to Auschwitz, you're going to see what happened to them.
[00:08:45]  And they have the right to return to what was originally one of their home, their homeland.
[00:08:52]  I understand the Palestinian.
[00:08:54]  3,000 years ago, the Bible says and all of that.
[00:08:57]  Yeah, by the way, that's interesting you bring that up because these are a lot of Bible prophecies coming true anyway.
[00:09:04]  So we got biblical dispensationalist stuff.
[00:09:06]  Very interesting.
[00:09:07]  Everything.
[00:09:07]  Everything.
[00:09:09]  It's all in the prophecies.
[00:09:10]  And I mean, I'm not a fanatical, believe me.
[00:09:13]  I'm very, very moderate on a lot of things.
[00:09:17]  But you got to look at things in shades of living color, not in black and white.
[00:09:22]  And that's the problem.
[00:09:23]  Americans like to do this or that.
[00:09:26]  We got the two extremes in this country.
[00:09:29]  I'm stuck in the middle.
[00:09:32]  I just wish people would start talking to each other instead of arguing.
[00:09:35]  Okay, so you talk about Dachau.
[00:09:37]  What about Gaza?
[00:09:38]  What about the Palestinian genocide?
[00:09:40]  You're right.
[00:09:41]  What a great question.
[00:09:42]  Why aren't we going after Hamas for that?
[00:09:44]  Hamas started that.
[00:09:46]  It pisses me off when they get all these demonstrations.
[00:09:49]  Hamas is behind it.
[00:09:51]  This goes back.
[00:09:52]  Who's behind Hamas is Iran.
[00:09:55]  This is what I'm talking about with the cancers.
[00:09:57]  Now, here's the deal.
[00:09:58]  If you study the Nazis and the Germans, as late as early 1945, the Germans were influenced by the Nazis, and they were so afraid of the Nazis at the same time.
[00:10:16]  And yet they would say, we know that our country's being destroyed by Allied bombs, but we have faith in the Fuhrer.
[00:10:24]  Okay, so what does that have to do with when they shut down the UN aid centers?
[00:10:28]  They say the Hamas is stealing the food or whatever.
[00:10:30]  They shut down the 400 UN aid centers.
[00:10:32]  They have four GHF ones they set up.
[00:10:34]  Between, I believe it was June and August.
[00:10:37]  They killed about 2,000 people and they wounded about 12,800.
[00:10:42]  What do you think about them shooting into the crowds of people?
[00:10:44]  It's not Israel.
[00:10:45]  Have you seen the footage of the dead kids and the bombs?
[00:10:48]  Hold on, take a deep breath now.
[00:10:50]  Okay.
[00:10:51]  All right.
[00:10:52]  The latest time, I read the news, which was about two hours ago.
[00:10:56]  They were talking about how, and this was yesterday also, by the way.
[00:11:00]  Iran is doing the same old trick that Hamas did and Hezbollah did as well.
[00:11:05]  They're moving their rocket launchers in the most densely parted area part areas of Tehran.
[00:11:13]  You know why?
[00:11:14]  So they can say, oh, you destroyed, you killed all these babies, you killed all these people.
[00:11:20]  They actually believe that.
[00:11:23]  I'm going to interrupt you.
[00:11:24]  I let you talk for a while.
[00:11:25]  What do you think about the school we blew up?
[00:11:27]  You know, the 160, 180 kids?
[00:11:29]  Is that a casualty of war?
[00:11:30]  Trump says it's a tomahawk and that Iran has it.
[00:11:32]  And what do you think about that?
[00:11:33]  We did that.
[00:11:34]  It was a mistake.
[00:11:35]  But that's okay.
[00:11:37]  Do you believe in the nuclear bomb when we used it in Japan?
[00:11:41]  I think you believe in genocide, to be honest with you.
[00:11:44]  With you.
[00:11:44]  Yes, you do.
[00:11:45]  Yes, you do.
[00:11:45]  If you support Hamas, then you believe in genocide.
[00:11:48]  Have you seen the aerial footage of Gaza before and after the genocide?
[00:11:51]  It had nothing to do with Israel.
[00:11:53]  Who dropped the bombs?
[00:11:55]  You've been dancing around.
[00:11:56]  Wait, who started the war?
[00:11:58]  The war was started by Hamas.
[00:12:00]  So it was engineered by Iran.
[00:12:03]  They're all together.
[00:12:04]  That's why they're a cancer.
[00:12:06]  They can't.
[00:12:07]  You know, there were four times when they could have had a two-state solution.
[00:12:11]  You know that.
[00:12:12]  Go ahead and get into it then.
[00:12:14]  Well, they turn it down.
[00:12:17]  Yeah?
[00:12:18]  There's no such thing.
[00:12:19]  Who funded Hamas over the PLO and made sure they rose to power?
[00:12:22]  B.B. Netanyahu, who engineered the entire situation to stay out of jail.
[00:12:25]  B.B. Netanyahu.
[00:12:26]  Are you a boomer?
[00:12:27]  You sound like a boomer to me.
[00:12:29]  You sound like you're pro-Iran.
[00:12:31]  I'm pro-America.
[00:12:32]  I'm pro-anti-foreign entanglement.
[00:12:35]  That's a pipe dream.
[00:12:37]  Oh, see, the people that have done this to our country and paid taxes into the system and voted for decades and decades and decades, you've made America worse.
[00:12:44]  Are you aware of that?
[00:12:46]  Well, I think we have.
[00:12:48]  I totally agree.
[00:12:49]  I think our politicians today, who are baby boomers, have f ⁇ ed this country up.
[00:12:55]  That's why I gave Bernie Sanders so much money.
[00:12:59]  See, I'm not a conservative or a sprouthead.
[00:13:03]  I'm right in the middle.
[00:13:04]  I just want what's good for the country and good for the world.
[00:13:08]  So war and foreign entanglement and billions of dollars being spent in Israel and Ukraine is good for the country.
[00:13:12]  What would that money do for the people that can't eat here, the people that are on the street?
[00:13:16]  That's a whole different thing.
[00:13:17]  The people are on the street, most of them are drug addicts.
[00:13:20]  Or they're mentally ill.
[00:13:21]  There's one third of them, and I've studied this in depth.
[00:13:24]  There's one third of them, though, that they're homeless, at no form of their home.
[00:13:30]  They want to get a job.
[00:13:31]  They want to get established.
[00:13:32]  We ought to be getting those people housing.
[00:13:34]  The other ones, they should be forced back into institutions.
[00:13:37]  Here's the problem with that.
[00:13:39]  The Republicans and the Libertarians say, we don't want to spend money on good institutions and bringing in doctors.
[00:13:45]  See how f ⁇ ed up we are?
[00:13:46]  Once again, back to your point.
[00:13:48]  That's what the baby boomers have done.
[00:13:50]  And I'm embarrassed about it.
[00:13:52]  I'm more than happy to take responsibility for what our f ⁇ ing generation did.
[00:13:57]  Okay, but don't you see how the pro-war culture has contributed to the decline of America over the years?
[00:14:02]  I mean, $9 trillion spent in Iraq and Afghanistan.
[00:14:05]  Let me ask you something.
[00:14:07]  What would you have done in 1939 when Hitler invaded Poland?
[00:14:13]  We're not in World War II.
[00:14:14]  No, no, you've got to understand your history because we keep repeating it.
[00:14:17]  This is a non-sequitur.
[00:14:18]  What does this have to do with the current topic?
[00:14:20]  It absolutely is.
[00:14:21]  We don't know your history.
[00:14:22]  That would be why.
[00:14:23]  Okay, let's talk about history.
[00:14:24]  Let's talk about Churchill and the mass bombing of cities like Dresden.
[00:14:27]  Do you think that's justified?
[00:14:28]  I agree.
[00:14:29]  That was terrible.
[00:14:31]  Once again, I don't think that was right.
[00:14:34]  But once again, you've got to go to the root.
[00:14:35]  Who started the war?
[00:14:37]  The Germans said.
[00:14:39]  So if someone does something bad, that means you get to kill civilians.
[00:14:43]  Do you think it's okay for everyone to have done what Churchill wanted to do, sit on their hands and let Hitler take over?
[00:14:50]  Churchill, I think you're talking about Chamberlain.
[00:14:51]  Oh, yeah, I'm sorry.
[00:14:52]  Thank you for correcting me.
[00:14:53]  I mean, Chamberlain.
[00:14:55]  Chamberlain thought that we could appease Hitler.
[00:14:58]  Even when the Germans were conquering France, they still thought we could negotiate with Hitler.
[00:15:06]  You can't negotiate with crazy people.
[00:15:09]  Hitler was crazy.
[00:15:10]  The people running Iran are crazy.
[00:15:12]  Okay, what do you think about the biblical declaration of Amalek?
[00:15:16]  Do you think the Palestinians are Amalek?
[00:15:18]  You got to educate them.
[00:15:20]  Okay, so you're not aware of this.
[00:15:21]  Netanyahu.
[00:15:22]  That's why I'm asking.
[00:15:22]  Netanyahu declared that the Palestinian people that they're fighting in the Gaza War, he declared them Amalek.
[00:15:28]  And what happens in the Bible?
[00:15:29]  They kill man, woman, child, animal.
[00:15:30]  It's a biblical genocide.
[00:15:32]  He declared them Amalek.
[00:15:33]  You can't argue with it.
[00:15:34]  It's on tape.
[00:15:35]  Do you support that?
[00:15:36]  Of course not.
[00:15:37]  Okay.
[00:15:38]  But I'm not pro-Hamas, and I'm not pro-Iran.
[00:15:42]  Iran started this sh ⁇ , not Israel.
[00:15:48]  Well, no, no, but we attack first.
[00:15:49]  That's actually not true.
[00:15:50]  That's a total falsehood.
[00:15:52]  Israel and America launched the missile attacks.
[00:15:54]  Israel started the 12-day war.
[00:15:56]  They launched the initial strike.
[00:15:57]  You're talking about Gaza.
[00:15:58]  Okay, you're bouncing.
[00:16:00]  No, you're talking about Iran, son.
[00:16:02]  No, I am, because it's all intertwined.
[00:16:04]  Don't you understand?
[00:16:05]  You're bouncing around, all right?
[00:16:06]  No, I'm not.
[00:16:07]  No, I'm not.
[00:16:07]  You're doing the tap dance.
[00:16:09]  No, I'm not doing.
[00:16:09]  You're doing the tap dance.
[00:16:11]  I'm not so sure about that.
[00:16:12]  You don't acknowledge.
[00:16:14]  You say it's horrible, but it's not a genocide.
[00:16:16]  What's the line?
[00:16:16]  What do you want to do?
[00:16:18]  What do I want to do?
[00:16:18]  I want to get us out of the Middle East.
[00:16:20]  Jay, that would be great.
[00:16:23]  I was against the war in Vietnam.
[00:16:25]  I know about all this shit.
[00:16:27]  I volunteered to go into Bosnia.
[00:16:29]  We brought in the Muslim kids who are being terrorized in the war zones.
[00:16:33]  Don't tell me I don't know about war.
[00:16:35]  What does that do with the Middle East?
[00:16:37]  Because did you know, for an example, that Iran way back then told the Muslims in Bosnia, we're going to send in 10,000 jihadists to support you.
[00:16:48]  We're going to set up an independent Muslim state that's going to be pro-Iran.
[00:16:54]  Did you know that?
[00:16:55]  You think America is so innocent?
[00:16:57]  We set up ISIS and Al-Qaeda.
[00:16:59]  I mean, this is all, it's a ridiculous game.
[00:17:02]  We're the heroes.
[00:17:02]  They're the villains.
[00:17:03]  We have mandates to kill them.
[00:17:05]  See, this is my whole point, my friend.
[00:17:08]  Black, white, life is a living color.
[00:17:13]  You're taking murder is murder.
[00:17:15]  Murder is murder.
[00:17:16]  Murder of civilians is murder.
[00:17:18]  That's what you support.
[00:17:19]  That's a system you've paid into.
[00:17:20]  So why do you support the fact that the people in Israel have had their buses blown up with little children in them?
[00:17:26]  Are you okay?
[00:17:27]  I don't support that.
[00:17:28]  That's completely insane.
[00:17:29]  I dream not to say one thing without the other.
[00:17:32]  It's all bad.
[00:17:33]  It's all bad, but you can't justify it by saying later on, go ahead and build nuclear weapons.
[00:17:39]  They said how many times, as soon as they have them, they're going to wipe us out.
[00:17:43]  That's not true.
[00:17:43]  That's not true.
[00:17:44]  We killed the guy that had the fatwell, the religious order to classify them as a crime against God.
[00:17:48]  We killed the Ayatollah.
[00:17:49]  That was not a smart move.
[00:17:50]  We killed their fucking Pope, man.
[00:17:53]  You like killing the Muslim Pope?
[00:17:54]  You think that's a good move for geopolitics?
[00:17:57]  There are bad Catholic popes.
[00:18:01]  There are bad Baptist leaders.
[00:18:03]  There are bad Muslim leaders.
[00:18:06]  You can't say that every religion has a good leader.
[00:18:10]  They all have bad leaders.
[00:18:12]  There are good ones, but not this guy and not some of the other ones in the past.
[00:18:18]  That's what I'm saying.

=== Death To America Narrative (08:09) ===

[00:18:19]  Okay.
[00:18:19]  Doing black and white again.
[00:18:21]  All right.
[00:18:22]  Living color.
[00:18:22]  Well, this is the boomer opinion.
[00:18:24]  It's all a shade of gray.
[00:18:25]  It is what it is.
[00:18:25]  Thank you for your time.
[00:18:26]  Appreciate it, man.
[00:18:27]  God bless you.
[00:18:31]  Holy Toledo, man.
[00:18:33]  It's not black and white.
[00:18:34]  It's shades of living color.
[00:18:35]  You know, I guess like there's different ways to barbecue a baby, right?
[00:18:37]  If you do it one way, it might be okay because it's a shade of living color.
[00:18:41]  It's all these pretty metaphors for death and destruction for bombs that we pay for.
[00:18:45]  For bombs, that guy spent his entire life paying into.
[00:18:47]  Okay?
[00:18:48]  So, but you can see like they can pretty well defend their circular logic and they're not willing to break with it.
[00:18:55]  I think the younger people, we even had a lady walk by us and say free Palestine, which I support, by the way, Free Palestine.
[00:19:01]  But it's just wild.
[00:19:06]  All right, welcome to the American Political Party 1.
[00:19:09]  That was Rex Jones out in the streets asking some tough questions and trying to get a fence and a grip as to what is going on right now.
[00:19:18]  Well, I mean, obviously outside of the ecosphere that is Twitter and young people and speaking to someone of an older generation to kind of get his perspective on that.
[00:19:27]  It's obviously quite the heated debate, but it's one that needs to be had.
[00:19:31]  So that was a great one and a great job done by Rex Jones.
[00:19:34]  But folks, I want to give you an update on a lot of things going on right now or all around the country.
[00:19:38]  And that's what we're going to be doing in the next three hours.
[00:19:40]  So buckle up.
[00:19:41]  A lot going on over here.
[00:19:42]  Ann Vanderstill will be joining the show today.
[00:19:44]  She's got a lot to sound off on.
[00:19:45]  Specifically, though, the war in Iran, obviously, but most importantly, there's three individuals who she's advocating for for pardons.
[00:19:53]  She's going to break down the very latest, saying that they are victims of the Department of Justice.
[00:19:57]  And she's going to give us the very latest on that front.
[00:19:59]  We'll also be discussing in detail the activities that took place yesterday at the White House.
[00:20:05]  A lot of interesting things going down.
[00:20:08]  Specifically, the president crunching down on fraud.
[00:20:10]  That was his claim.
[00:20:12]  But does he really care about crunching down on fraud?
[00:20:15]  Well, there's a new clip that's been circulating the internet, and I think it actually shows that they might not be serious about crunching down on the fraud.
[00:20:23]  I also want to get to the latest and illegal battles that are ongoing.
[00:20:26]  A lot of DHS victories taking place yesterday that I'll break down for you, of course.
[00:20:31]  We also have the very latest regarding Jasmine Crockett's security guard body camera footage and dashboard camera footage has just been released by the Dallas Police Department.
[00:20:42]  It highlights what events took place, which led to that shooting.
[00:20:46]  And surprise, surprise, her bodyguard or her bodyguard apparently had a long, long criminal record.
[00:20:53]  We'll give you the details on that in a few moments as well.
[00:20:57]  There's a lot of things I want to catch you up on, like Dave Rubin being an absolute prick.
[00:21:01]  I'll give you the details behind that in a little bit.
[00:21:05]  But first, let's start at the top of the show.
[00:21:07]  That show, the show, was meant to focus today on the very latest, giving you the updates that's going on all on the ground in Iran.
[00:21:14]  Specifically, though, the latest coming from Israel, Israel's defense minister saying that specifically they have taken out one of Iran's top security officials.
[00:21:24]  That announcement just coming a couple of moments ago before we went to air.
[00:21:27]  Now, again, this is information coming from Israel.
[00:21:30]  They're saying it took place during an airstrike in Iran.
[00:21:34]  And so we'll bring you the details on that when it continues to develop.
[00:21:37]  But that's all we have currently.
[00:21:38]  It's just that little one-liner.
[00:21:40]  But we do have other information making its way out there into the universe.
[00:21:45]  Axios is apparently claiming that the United States and Iran are in talks.
[00:21:50]  That's according to their latest report.
[00:21:51]  They're claiming that the direct communications is happening between the U.S. envoy Steve Witkoff, as well as the Iranian foreign prime minister.
[00:22:00]  So the both of them have been having these discussions according to Axios.
[00:22:04]  No details on if they're close to a deal.
[00:22:07]  Obviously, President Trump has made it very clear that he only wants the regime to surrender and he has no tolerance for anything less.
[00:22:15]  Now, when it comes to that, yesterday at the White House, the president was asked several questions as to where he stands on the war currently and how much longer are we going to keep having to deal with this.
[00:22:25]  Now, he did answer that question in clip one.
[00:22:28]  Take a listen.
[00:22:29]  If Iran, as I said, totally obliterated, got the missiles, got the first two rounds of leadership, Air Force Gone, Navy gone.
[00:22:37]  Can we wrap this war up this week?
[00:22:40]  Yeah, sure.
[00:22:42]  Will we?
[00:22:43]  I don't think so, but it'll be soon.
[00:22:45]  Won't be alone.
[00:22:46]  And we're going to have a much safer world when it's wrapped up.
[00:22:49]  It'll be wrapped up soon.
[00:22:52]  We're going to have a much safer world.
[00:22:54]  All right.
[00:22:55]  We're going to have a much safer world coming from the president.
[00:22:57]  We'll see.
[00:22:58]  We'll see.
[00:22:58]  Again, they haven't given us an exact timeline as to when they plan on wrapping up this war, but the president was asked a very serious question.
[00:23:06]  You may have seen the reports yesterday.
[00:23:08]  We know we talked about on this program, but the New York Post reported exclusively that the Ayatollah, the new Ayatollah, is apparently gay.
[00:23:15]  Now, the individual who reported that was actually at the White House yesterday and asked the president about it.
[00:23:21]  Take a list of clip two.
[00:23:22]  There's another report that he may actually be gay despite leading the ethiocracy that hates gay people.
[00:23:28]  How do you determine what's true?
[00:23:30]  And do you have an assessment of this?
[00:23:33]  Well, so far, nobody knows.
[00:23:34]  If you look at his father, he used to give talks a lot, you know, talking about death to America.
[00:23:40]  He say death to America all the time.
[00:23:42]  When they say death to America, you should believe them because that's what they would have.
[00:23:46]  If they had a nuclear weapon, they would have used it.
[00:23:50]  Now, there's really no debating that the Iranian regime is obviously evil.
[00:23:56]  But again, we haven't seen any evidence that they were ever coming close to making these weapons of mass destruction is kind of how you got to angle at this point.
[00:24:03]  I know they don't want to use the Bush arrow forms, the words, terms, but the reality of it is, is many Americans feel like this is deja vu all over again.
[00:24:11]  And of course, we have no actual hard evidence being presented to the American people that prove just that.
[00:24:17]  I don't understand if you've already eliminated the threat.
[00:24:19]  If you're bragging about the abolishment of their Navy, which obviously the president did just yesterday as well, then why can't you start telling the American people as to what evidence you saw that made these strikes justifiable?
[00:24:34]  Again, many are being very critical of the president and saying that his alliance seems to be with Israel rather than the American people.
[00:24:41]  So if you wanted to debunk those, well, why not go out there and say it?
[00:24:46]  Why not go out there and give us a detailed report and back those claims up?
[00:24:50]  In fact, one of the president's most loyal activists, Ms. Marjorie Taylor Greene, the former congresswoman, has been out there and she is infuriated with what she sees going on in Washington, D.C. in clip three.
[00:25:01]  Take a listen.
[00:25:02]  Yes.
[00:25:02]  This is absolutely absurd and it's 100% a betrayal to what MAGA was supposed to be when we voted in 2024 and it's turned into some perverted deranged version of MAGA now that nobody wants.
[00:25:19]  And a lot of people are just like, this doesn't make sense.
[00:25:22]  And I'll go further, Pamela.
[00:25:25]  We love our military.
[00:25:26]  And God bless the men and women serving.
[00:25:28]  And we love their families.
[00:25:30]  And we do not want to see flag draped coffins coming home in a war that does nothing for our own homeland.
[00:25:38]  And then I want to add on something else.
[00:25:40]  How insulting is it to Americans that the GOP can't even fund homeland security right now?
[00:25:47]  Our own government that protects our own homeland while they're waging some war like 6,800 miles away in a country that none of us have ever been to against a foreign people that none of us know, killing many of these people, even to the point of killing their children.
[00:26:05]  It's just absolutely absurd.
[00:26:08]  Now, obviously, war is, there's a lot of innocent people that die during war.
[00:26:13]  And so that's what MTG is trying to elude at.
[00:26:15]  What we know so far is that our government may have actually been the ones behind that strike at that school, which may have resulted in hundreds, I believe, kids or at least dozens of children killed.
[00:26:26]  But the reality of it is, folks, is we just want answers.

=== Trump Administration Spending Crunch (14:21) ===

[00:26:28]  I mean, I think that's the best way to have it at this moment.
[00:26:31]  I don't have a certain feeling in all of this.
[00:26:34]  I obviously don't want to see Americans being killed.
[00:26:36]  I also don't want to see innocent people being killed.
[00:26:38]  And right now, we're not really getting detailed responses from this administration.
[00:26:43]  The boogeyman, that is the Iranian nuclear weapons, has been pitched to us for years and years and years.
[00:26:49]  And so many Americans just want to know what the president saw that made him activate his military to attack Iran currently.
[00:26:58]  Now, again, we're going to keep sifting through the information.
[00:26:59]  I know a lot of people are very passionate about this topic.
[00:27:01]  We've got more up ahead in just a little bit.
[00:27:03]  In the meantime, then I want to point you over to the alexjonesdor.com right now because for the next few hours, we still have that March mega sale going on right now.
[00:27:10]  Stop what you're doing.
[00:27:10]  That sale will end very, very soon over at the alexjonestdore.com.
[00:27:14]  It's still up right now, but it's not going to last forever.
[00:27:17]  So if you want to save 30 to 40% off some of your favorite supplements, you got to stop what you're doing right now and head on over to the alexjonestore.com.
[00:27:23]  All right, folks, we have more happening in just a little bit.
[00:27:24]  I'll catch you up on the latest regarding the president's efforts to crunch down on fraud.
[00:27:28]  But is he really trying to crunch down on fraud?
[00:27:30]  Well, there's a new soundbite that we've just uncovered that may suggest that's not the actual case.
[00:27:34]  We'll be right back.
[00:27:51]  Administration, they're claiming that they're trying to crunch down on the fraud, but aren't they really?
[00:27:55]  Are they really, really?
[00:27:56]  Well, I don't know.
[00:27:57]  They really are.
[00:27:59]  Yesterday at the White House, you may have seen some of the clips circulating online regarding the president's efforts to crunch down on the fraud.
[00:28:06]  President Trump signed an executive order, launching a national task force led by Vice President JD Vance aimed to proving President Trump's claims, of course, that there is a federal issue regarding social welfare programs being stolen in some states.
[00:28:22]  And so that's the focus of all of this.
[00:28:24]  And, well, Stephen Miller says that he's actually outlined a lot of those claims, and he knows that these are factually true because he's done the digging.
[00:28:31]  Take a listen to clip four.
[00:28:32]  The illegal flow across the southern border was stopped completely.
[00:28:36]  But what we found since President Trump came into office is that the Democrats have set up a system to funnel hundreds of billions and ultimately trillions of dollars to migrants that are in our country, oftentimes from places like Somalia.
[00:28:49]  So as an example, ICE recently asked a group of illegal immigrants that were in detention whether or not they were receiving Medicaid.
[00:28:58]  Half of them raised their hands and volunteered that they were on Medicaid, just volunteered that.
[00:29:04]  These aren't the ones who are hiding it, right?
[00:29:06]  They also asked illegal aliens how they paid their medical bills, and they said that if they don't have Medicaid, they go to hospitals, they get free care there, and they bill it to the taxpayers.
[00:29:15]  So they aren't paying for any of their own health care in this country.
[00:29:18]  This is one example.
[00:29:19]  And we've seen this over and over and over again.
[00:29:21]  So under President Trump's leadership, and then of course with JD and the head of the FTC, Andrew Ferguson, we're going to see the first ever effort in American history to reclaim the ultimately trillions of dollars that were stolen from taxpayers.
[00:29:35]  I believe, and I know President Trump believes, that when this theft is exposed, we will see that if all of it were stopped, it would be enough to balance the budget.
[00:29:43]  The extraction of wealth from American taxpayers to people who don't belong here is the primary cause of the national debt.
[00:29:51]  And this is the first ever effort to shut that down.
[00:29:53]  Thank you, Mr. President.
[00:29:54]  First ever.
[00:29:55]  And everyone knows they've been cheating for years.
[00:29:57]  It's the first.
[00:29:59]  All right, so the president's obviously claiming, and so is Stephen Miller, that these illegal aliens have been leaching on the system.
[00:30:04]  And we do truly believe that that's true.
[00:30:06]  The president also adding this, and I'll play this before we offer the rebuttal, though.
[00:30:09]  The president also saying that a lot of these politicians have allowed the fraud to go on for far too long.
[00:30:14]  And he's got an explanation as to why that's been happening in Clip 5.
[00:30:18]  Take a listen.
[00:30:18]  They make money.
[00:30:20]  They gain power.
[00:30:21]  They use it for power.
[00:30:23]  Like with the Somalians, they vote in a block, 100%.
[00:30:27]  They make a deal with the Somalians.
[00:30:29]  They all vote because they're in a gravy trade.
[00:30:35]  It's money first.
[00:30:37]  Power second.
[00:30:38]  A lot of people say power first now.
[00:30:40]  It's money first.
[00:30:41]  Power second.
[00:30:42]  Do you ever see where like Mercedes people come over from Somalia?
[00:30:47]  They have no money and now they're buying Mercedes-Benz cars.
[00:30:50]  Okay?
[00:30:51]  It's more cash goes out of the Minnesota airport than any other place in the world.
[00:30:58]  We're going to find it.
[00:30:59]  And Minnesota is really bad.
[00:31:00]  The governor's corrupt.
[00:31:01]  The Attorney General is totally corrupt.
[00:31:03]  Just like the New York State Attorney General, Letitia James.
[00:31:06]  She's a highly corrupt person.
[00:31:09]  Bragg, the DA, is a corrupt person.
[00:31:12]  They're all corrupt.
[00:31:13]  These are corrupt people.
[00:31:15]  And we got too many of them in our country.
[00:31:19]  And we have to expose them and we have to catch them.
[00:31:23]  Now, listen, I'm not going to dispute the fact that these are very corrupt individuals.
[00:31:27]  Obviously, I know that to be true.
[00:31:29]  But is the White House truly serious about crunching down the fraud?
[00:31:32]  Well, some might actually argue against that.
[00:31:34]  Why?
[00:31:34]  Well, there's been a lot of proof over the years, over the year, I should say, that they have not actually been looking to address that.
[00:31:41]  Doge was something that the American people widely supported.
[00:31:44]  This was very, very popular, Doge efforts.
[00:31:47]  Americans wanted them to crunch down the fraud, and that's what this administration promised to do.
[00:31:51]  As many of you guys know, Doge lasted for a couple of months, and then it was abruptly shut down.
[00:31:56]  They claim that a lot of those resources were then shifted into these agencies directly, but we haven't actually seen much in the way of progress on Doge reports or any type of promise commitment to make sure that these programs don't resume by maybe laminating it through legislation.
[00:32:10]  Now, that hasn't happened.
[00:32:11]  But there's a new clip circulating online, and it has to do with a deposition that was being given by a former Doge employee, Nate Kavanaugh.
[00:32:18]  Now, he describes growing tensions between both Elon Musk and the White House over the Doge spending cuts.
[00:32:25]  Take a deep listen to what he had to say here in clip six.
[00:32:30]  The small agency's work ultimately was winding down in around July because there was growing tension between Elon and the White House, and the desire to cut spending from the White House started to reduce for political reasons, I assume.
[00:32:46]  And so I got transitioned to immigration after that.
[00:32:51]  Were you involved?
[00:32:52]  Were you privy at all to those tensions between Elon and the White House about tenant spending?
[00:33:01]  Can you be more specific?
[00:33:03]  Well, you referenced it vaguely, and it wasn't clear to me whether you had like first-hand knowledge of meetings or conversations about that issue or whether you were just referring to things you read in the press.
[00:33:16]  I had first-hand knowledge of the tension between Elon and the president.
[00:33:21]  How so?
[00:33:22]  I was in a meeting with Elon, Steve Davis, Howard Lutnick, and David Sachs in the West Wing of the White House, where there was a discussion about the growing tension of not willing to, not being interested in cutting spending as aggressively as we had originally hoped.
[00:33:39]  And who communicated that from the White House perspective?
[00:33:41]  A tax temp.
[00:33:42]  I don't recall.
[00:33:45]  Someone communicated it.
[00:33:48]  I don't recall, honestly, who said it.
[00:33:50]  Might have been anyway.
[00:33:51]  But it was said.
[00:33:54]  Yeah.
[00:33:55]  And obviously, I don't think that kid is lying to us.
[00:33:58]  His actual deposition was really inspirational, given the fact that he's a very young person.
[00:34:03]  I know I sound old when I say that, but it gives me some signs of hope that we might actually have people stepping into positions hopefully soon that will fix all of this.
[00:34:11]  Now, again, folks, you heard him there detailing it for you exactly.
[00:34:15]  He named the names that were in the room.
[00:34:17]  This is a serious issue.
[00:34:18]  Is this administration truly serious about crunching down the numbers?
[00:34:21]  Well, they obviously dissolved Doge pretty quickly, and it's been very hush-hussed since then.
[00:34:26]  The PR side of all of this, they've quickly issued the rebuttal and they were putting out the information saying a Doge has been dissolved by saying, no, no, no, it hasn't been dissolved.
[00:34:34]  It's been swapped over into each individual agency.
[00:34:37]  But will the agencies themselves be honest and transparent and willing to cut back on their reckless spending?
[00:34:43]  Probably not.
[00:34:44]  And they'll probably stumble into that Doge person's office and maybe issue them a very vague threat.
[00:34:50]  And I don't see this going well.
[00:34:53]  In fact, we haven't even heard about any of the additional cuts that have happened since this big PR Doge nightmare, the breakup began.
[00:35:01]  And so right now, so many Americans are firing up because yet again, we have more and more proof that this administration is backing away from its original commitments.
[00:35:10]  Doge was extremely popular.
[00:35:12]  Why?
[00:35:12]  Because the American people were outraged when they saw what our government was doing with our money.
[00:35:17]  And so when the administration tells you that they're going to cut down on fraud, but they didn't really do that for Doge.
[00:35:23]  Well, don't hold your breath.
[00:35:25]  All right, let's shift gears over to the latest on the legal matters that were going on yesterday.
[00:35:30]  A lot of things popping up all over the web.
[00:35:32]  Give you some brief overview though, of course, as to the latest in a lot of these cases, like the Supreme Court yesterday granting uh two emergency petitions by the Trump administration to end the temporary protected status for Haitians and Syrians.
[00:35:45]  As many of you guys know, that was under the Biden regime and many people were very angry about that.
[00:35:50]  The issue to to kind of detail, it is going to be argued in front of the Supreme Court next month, but this is temporary.
[00:35:58]  But it's a win, because obviously they are pushing and they're looking to uh get rid of these people from our country.
[00:36:03]  Okay, I don't even understand how we're even arguing this.
[00:36:06]  When Joe Biden or Joe Biden, whoever was running the White House was the one who shuffled these people into our country, he did it by exclusively sending flights down to Haiti, wrapping up the lowest denominator, the people who were there the, the people who can't even read on an elementary level brought them into the United States, shifted the demographics in places like Ohio by importing these people to the area, obviously people who are going to be leeches to the welfare system because they're poorly educated, they're unable to assimilate, and that's what we did, and so right now,
[00:36:35]  the Trump administration is trying to get these people out of our country.
[00:36:38]  But you have all of these nonprofits, all these left-leaning legal groups out there, really fighting them to the teeth.
[00:36:43]  So again, that Supreme Court argument, uh will be heard next month and obviously they're looking to end that legal protection that was granted to Haitians and Syrians under the Biden regime.
[00:36:55]  And if you shift over to another one, a federal appeals court ruled two to one decision that the Trump administration can continue to swiftly deport migrants to third world countries where they have no ties to lifting prior restrictions imposed by lower courts as well.
[00:37:09]  Now again, when you go through the information, this was a big one.
[00:37:12]  As many of you guys know, DHS was trying its best to get these people out of the country as quickly as possible and although I know we're critical of mass deportations and the lack of mass deportations, the reality of it is the Trump administration has at least been trying to do that.
[00:37:26]  Obviously, right now we're dealing with a partial shutdown, so that's going to affect it, but we're also dealing with the uh pushback that's coming from well.
[00:37:33]  So you guys guessed it, uh, the left-leaning groups, and they're trying their very best to prevent this from happening and uh, so far, it looks like the Trump administration has been handed several victories, but again, they'll keep appealing and appealing.
[00:37:45]  It's all to wait till it gets in front of Scotis, of course, for its final.
[00:37:48]  All right, let's shift gears over to another DHS related story.
[00:37:52]  Top Democrats in Congress right now, including Jamie Raskin and Dick Durbin well, they're pushing right now for uh DHS secretary, or former secretary Christy Noam, to uh have an investigation led by the DOJ against her for possible crimes, including perjury.
[00:38:09]  That's what they're saying right now.
[00:38:11]  Uh, they are accusing her of lying under oath, something i'm sure Democrats have never done.
[00:38:17]  Of course.
[00:38:18]  They're accusing her of lying under oath about that so-called vanity project.
[00:38:22]  That's what they're calling it these days, the vanity scheme uh, where she was unleashing about 220 million dollars of your money on a DHS advertising campaign and that was meant to highlight all of the incredible things that were being done under the Trump administration with mass deportations obviously voluntarily deporting you got to crunch down the numbers.
[00:38:40]  But again uh, they are going after her for that, now that it's also Not just her that they're trying to go after.
[00:38:45]  They're also trying to go after Trisha McLaughlin as well, accusing her husband of having possibly some type of wrongdoing, even though he was running a media company and won the bidding process, which DHS claims was completely legitimate.
[00:38:58]  So we're waiting for more information to pop up from there.
[00:39:00]  But just keep in mind, folks, when it comes to DHS and the $220 million that they keep Democrats keep like bashing over Chrissy Noam's head, realize this is a woman who ended the Quiet Skies program, which cost American taxpayers over $100 million a year, which resulted after over a decade in zero terrorists actually being arrested.
[00:39:20]  So when they sit there and they poke and they pretend like they're caring, they care for the reckless federal spending, understand something and understand it clearly.
[00:39:28]  These people don't give a damn.
[00:39:29]  It's just a matter of going after their political enemies and they've deemed Chrissy Noam as their political enemy, given the fact that she is purging those illegal aliens from this country.
[00:39:38]  And so that's the reason why they're going after her.
[00:39:40]  Now, again, you got to be fair, and I am always trying to be fair.
[00:39:43]  And I'm all on board for us going after these people who decided to, you know, obviously abuse their taxpayer money, steal it, abuse it, send it off to friends, participate in pay-to-play schemes.
[00:39:55]  I mean, obviously the fraud is endless.
[00:39:57]  But folks, the reality of it is Democrats have been doing this for far too long.
[00:40:01]  Most of the time, they shuffle this money over to their NGOs and it's their NGOs because then those NGOs give it back to them in the form of donations.
[00:40:08]  Those NGOs are the ones who are loyalists to Democrats.
[00:40:11]  So everything is okay when it appeases their narrative.
[00:40:14]  But when it doesn't, then they jump on board and go after people like Chrissy Noome and Trisha McLaughlin.
[00:40:19]  It's absolute garbage.
[00:40:20]  DHS has done significant cuts to its budget.
[00:40:23]  As many of you guys know, they've gone through the waste.
[00:40:25]  They've actually purged a lot of the filth that was put in by the Biden regime, DEI spending.
[00:40:30]  But nobody even wants to talk about that.
[00:40:31]  They'd rather be hyper-focused on the fact that this administration spent $220 million.
[00:40:36]  And again, I understand why we'd be critical of this.
[00:40:39]  I want to see the actual breakdown and see what they got in return for all of it, which we're actively looking into.
[00:40:44]  But again, these people are only shifting the blame because it's convenient for them right now to do just that.

=== Diamond Robinson Arrests Revealed (02:51) ===

[00:40:50]  So take it for what it's worth.
[00:40:52]  All right, let's shift gears a little bit to another ruling that came out yesterday.
[00:40:57]  A Biden federal judge, Brian Murphy, issued a prehumillary injunction.
[00:41:02]  It's a temporary one, blocking key parts of, as many of you guys know, the HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s plans to completely overhaul the vaccine policies.
[00:41:13]  Now, the ruling called a directive that was meant to reduce the number of the childhood vaccines that were recommended to children.
[00:41:20]  He's trying to crunch down those numbers from 17 to 11.
[00:41:24]  And that's exactly what this temporary preeminent, I can't even speak today, prehimillary, I'll just let it go, injunction is all for.
[00:41:33]  Folks, I'm not a morning show person.
[00:41:36]  I think that's the reason why we're shifting gears.
[00:41:39]  Speaking in the morning, it's a challenge.
[00:41:40]  It is, it is.
[00:41:41]  All right, let's keep talking though, because there's a lot more going on that I wanted to dive into.
[00:41:45]  Like Jasmine Crockett, who is obviously a crook herself in many different aspects.
[00:41:50]  The good news, though, is she's going to be out of federal politics for a bit.
[00:41:53]  We look forward to that.
[00:41:54]  But you may have seen the reports that her own bodyguard, his name is Diamond Robinson, aka Mike King, because of course they can't go by their real names when you're a legitimate person.
[00:42:04]  Diamond Robinson is an individual who has a lengthy criminal record.
[00:42:08]  He was actually fatally shot by Dallas PD just a few days ago because, well, I mean, it's pretty obvious.
[00:42:15]  Let's go through the Fox report that came yesterday, that came out yesterday.
[00:42:20]  I want to get to clip seven where Fox details exactly what happened, and then we'll get to the body cam footage that was actually just released.
[00:42:27]  So first up, let's listen to clip seven.
[00:42:29]  Sources say this longtime security guard of Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett was killed in a SWAT standoff here in Dallas earlier this week.
[00:42:38]  So sources say that he was under investigation for impersonating a police officer on Thursday.
[00:42:44]  Officers followed him into a parking garage where police say he barricaded himself in his car before he was forced out by tear gas and then pulled a gun on officers.
[00:42:55]  Well, sources say the man, 39-year-old Diamond Mazare Robinson, went by the alias Mike King.
[00:43:01]  He had a lengthy rap sheet with arrests as far back as 2010.
[00:43:06]  He's been in and out of jail for theft charges and violating probation, raising questions about how he was able to obtain this high-level security position for a sitting member of Congress.
[00:43:18]  Now, on election night right here, King was seen by Congresswoman Crockett's side.
[00:43:23]  She lost the Democratic nomination for the Texas Senate seat to State Representative James Tallarico.
[00:43:30]  And officials also say that he was running a side business where he was placing officers in off-duty jobs and was also driving in this replica undercover police car.

=== Mike King Security Scandal (12:05) ===

[00:43:41]  All right, now, obviously, that is the signs of a criminal.
[00:43:43]  We're getting breaking news in.
[00:43:44]  I'm just going to keep looking into this for now, though.
[00:43:46]  I want to get to the dashboard camera because that's really telling.
[00:43:49]  And that's clip 19.
[00:43:50]  That's exactly what she was describing in the report.
[00:43:52]  Take a look.
[00:44:03]  I'm gonna stand up, I'm sitting in this room.
[00:44:04]  You ready?
[00:44:05]  Never stay, man.
[00:44:09]  Fight.
[00:44:11]  Get out.
[00:44:17]  Keep your hands up.
[00:44:19]  Stand up.
[00:44:23]  Stand up.
[00:44:24]  Put your hands up.
[00:44:27]  Ah, don't reach.
[00:44:28]  Don't do it.
[00:44:30]  Don't do it.
[00:44:33]  All right.
[00:44:33]  Before we get to that, I want to get to this breaking news coming from Joe Kenneth.
[00:44:37]  This is actually big, big news.
[00:44:39]  Joe Ken has just resigned as director of National Counterterrorism Center.
[00:44:43]  His resignation letter just posted to Twitter, and it's actually quite shocking, but telling.
[00:44:48]  I cannot, on good conscience, looks like support the ongoing war in Iran.
[00:44:53]  Iran posed no imminent threat to our nation.
[00:44:56]  And it is clear that we started this war due to pressure from Israel and its powerful American lobby.
[00:45:02]  That letter just posted right now, folks.
[00:45:05]  This is big news.
[00:45:10]  Joe Kent walking away right now from this position, from the director of national intelligence, due to the president's move on going after Iran.
[00:45:20]  I mean, this is insane.
[00:45:22]  We're going to talk about this Ann Van der Stiel in a little bit when she comes on and get her reaction.
[00:45:26]  But let me remind you, guys, I kept playing that clip of Joe Kent telling us all that there were thousands of Islamic terrorists released into our country.
[00:45:33]  That was back in December.
[00:45:34]  He knew the threat in the homeland.
[00:45:36]  And it's quite obvious that he knows the threat.
[00:45:38]  He's assessed the threat.
[00:45:39]  And someone like him and Telsey Gabbert are all people.
[00:45:41]  That's why you see the attacks against Telsey Gabber getting very vicious.
[00:45:47]  So this is what's going on right now.
[00:45:48]  And I'm trying my best to just grab someone for this as it develops.
[00:45:53]  But this is obviously breaking news and it's one that's continuously developing here.
[00:45:59]  I want to get to the details about the criminals.
[00:46:03]  We continue to look into this who jumped into this situation.
[00:46:07]  As many of you guys know, the bodyguard in the Dallas attack.
[00:46:10]  Let's get his mug shot on the screen, please.
[00:46:15]  We have the mug shots for the bodyguard.
[00:46:20]  All right.
[00:46:21]  Let's toss over to a sound bite real quick.
[00:46:23]  Let's go to clip 10 because yesterday the president spoke at the White House about a very personal issue and Mike Johnson called him out.
[00:46:30]  So let's take a listen to that.
[00:46:31]  People know his name?
[00:46:34]  Do you want to mention it?
[00:46:35]  He'll be proud.
[00:46:36]  Go ahead, tell them this story.
[00:46:38]  Okay, well, thank you, Mr. President.
[00:46:41]  Congressman Neil Don of Florida had had some real health challenges, and it was very serious and had had a pretty grim diagnosis.
[00:46:49]  And I mentioned it to the president.
[00:46:50]  I said, Congressman Don is a real champion and a patriot because he's still coming to work.
[00:46:54]  And if others got this diagnosis, they would be apt to go home and retire.
[00:46:58]  What was the diagnosis?
[00:46:59]  It was, I mean, I think it was a terminal diagnosis.
[00:47:02]  He would be dead by June.
[00:47:04]  Okay, that wasn't public, but yeah, okay.
[00:47:07]  It was grim.
[00:47:08]  That's what I was going to say.
[00:47:09]  I don't think.
[00:47:10]  With a heart problem, by the way, this was a heart problem.
[00:47:13]  So long story short, the president called him to encourage him and thank him, and they had a conversation.
[00:47:18]  And the president mentioned in the course of the conversation, you know, I ought to get my doctors involved.
[00:47:23]  And they did.
[00:47:24]  And within a number of hours, they took him to Walter Reed, emergency surgery.
[00:47:29]  The man has a new lease on life.
[00:47:30]  He acts like he's 30 years younger.
[00:47:32]  And he walked into the conference meeting and we thought we'd seen a ghost.
[00:47:35]  And I spoke with him over the weekend, and he's encouraged and thankful.
[00:47:38]  And he thanks the president for his leadership and intervention.
[00:47:40]  And thank you.
[00:47:41]  Thank you.
[00:47:42]  He actually called Mike.
[00:47:43]  Mike called me and he said, sir, we're up by three, but we're going to lose one by June.
[00:47:49]  I said, who?
[00:47:50]  Neil Dunn.
[00:47:51]  He said, Congress, a great congressman.
[00:47:53]  Incredible.
[00:47:54]  He called to say that he was terminal, really bad heart.
[00:47:59]  There's nothing they can do.
[00:48:01]  I said, that's bad.
[00:48:03]  Number one, it was bad because I liked him.
[00:48:05]  Number two, it was bad because I needed his vote.
[00:48:08]  But he really said, he said, Mike, I'm going to last this out for the president and you.
[00:48:14]  And however long I live, I mean, it looks like June is the time, but however long I live, I'm going to be voting for you.
[00:48:23]  I mean, how many people are going to say that?
[00:48:25]  Most of them are going to say, Mike, I'm retiring immediately.
[00:48:27]  That's the end.
[00:48:28]  He's an extraordinary.
[00:48:29]  But he didn't do that.
[00:48:30]  It was really impressive.
[00:48:31]  And then I realized I have done.
[00:48:33]  All right.
[00:48:34]  So obviously the president calling out the congressman who probably didn't want that information put out there.
[00:48:38]  Deeply, deeply concerning.
[00:48:39]  Let's go back because I've had time to sift through this Joe Kent letter and I wanted to make sure we've read it in detail before just bringing you little bits and pieces of it.
[00:48:47]  But this Joe Kent letter is actually extremely powerful.
[00:48:51]  I don't think I've actually seen a resignation letter.
[00:48:54]  This, I hate the word strongly, the term strongly worded, but I mean, he's going after President Trump.
[00:49:01]  I mean, this is a member, this is the director of National Counter Terrorism Center.
[00:49:05]  I mean, this is big.
[00:49:06]  This letter is addressed to President Trump and it lists why he's resigning specifically.
[00:49:10]  He details how he supported the president during his first term when he went after, obviously, ISIS and then Soleimani as well.
[00:49:18]  He said, earlier in this administration, high-ranking Israeli officials were influential.
[00:49:23]  Members of the American media deployed a misinformation campaign to undermine America First platform, which obviously sought out to encourage, they were trying to encourage a war with Iran.
[00:49:36]  This echo chamber used this to deceive you into believing the Iranians, obviously Iran, posed an intimate threat to the United States and that you should strike now.
[00:49:48]  There was a clear path to a swift victory.
[00:49:51]  This was a lie and is the same tactic the Israelis used to draw us into the disastrous war in Iraq.
[00:50:00]  We cannot make this mistake again, he goes on as saying, as a veteran who was deployed to combat 11 times and as a gold star husband who lost his beloved wife, Shannon, in a war that was manufactured by Israel, I cannot support sending the next generation off to fight and die in a war that serves no benefit to the American people, nor justice that justifies the cost of American lives.
[00:50:27]  I pray that you will reflect upon what we are doing in Iran and who we are doing it for.
[00:50:35]  Folks, I've never seen a letter like this before being sent over to any president.
[00:50:41]  I think it's quite clear that Joe Kent knows exactly what's happening.
[00:50:44]  I think it's quite clear that Joe Kent understands the threat.
[00:50:47]  These are the questions that we've been asking.
[00:50:49]  And I know this administration has not been transparent in trying to answer these questions.
[00:50:53]  In fact, they've done everything possible to distance themselves from having to answer these questions.
[00:50:58]  But I think it's pretty, pretty obvious what's going on right now.
[00:51:02]  Folks, if Joe Kent's coming out and telling you, as someone who has access to all that classified information, that this war wasn't warranted, then all of that classified information that they'd like to hide behind, the man who's able to see through it himself, I could promise you, it's not there.
[00:51:20]  It's non-existent.
[00:51:21]  It's all manufactured at this point.
[00:51:24]  Joe Kent just sent me over.
[00:51:25]  I mean, that is a powerful letter that details exactly what he's seeing behind closed doors without having to obviously get himself into legal issues.
[00:51:34]  But man oh, man, is Joe Kent's patriot for doing just that and warning both the president and the American people that this war in Iran has been manufactured by Israel?
[00:51:44]  I mean, the fact that he's saying that tells you everything you need to know.
[00:51:47]  Folks, we're going to keep digging into this.
[00:51:48]  Ann Vandersteel is jumping on with me.
[00:51:49]  She's sifting over all the information.
[00:51:51]  She's trying to get a hold of Joe Kent to see if she could have a conversation with him before coming on with us.
[00:51:55]  So we're going to be actively looking into this, of course, and we'll be bringing you the very latest as it develops.
[00:52:00]  In the meantime, go head him over to the alexjonstore.com.
[00:52:02]  It's the final hours of the March mega sale going on right now, 30% to 40% off our supplements over at thealexjonesstore.com.
[00:52:08]  Back to the American Journal.
[00:52:16]  Breaking news coming in just moments ago.
[00:52:17]  Joe Kent stepping away from his position in the administration and he is going after President Trump in his resignation letter.
[00:52:24]  We'll bring it back to you guys in just a little bit.
[00:52:26]  Ann Vanderstiel will be jumping on with us to detail what we're now learning from that letter.
[00:52:31]  And Man O'Man, I've never actually seen a resignation letter from any administration that detailed and completely disputing the narrative that's been pushed out there.
[00:52:40]  So Joe Kent stepping away from his current position over at obviously national intelligence counterterrorism and he's blaming it on the president's moves in Iran.
[00:52:50]  We'll bring you the latest on that in just a little bit with Ann Van der Stiel jumping on the show.
[00:52:54]  I wanted to bring you this news though.
[00:52:55]  Obviously, if you were watching yesterday on X, you saw the news that Susie Wiles does have breast cancer.
[00:53:02]  She actually posted a tweet after the announcement was made by the president on Truth Social saying that last week I was diagnosed with breast cancer.
[00:53:09]  I'm grateful to have an outstanding team of doctors who detected the cancer early.
[00:53:14]  And then he goes on to saying that she's getting great care and she's very thankful for the president and his encouragement as I undergo treatment and continues serving in my role as the White House chief of staff.
[00:53:25]  Now, again, she's not stepping away anytime soon.
[00:53:28]  She continues to say that she will be the one serving the president still as the chief of staff for him.
[00:53:34]  And so we'll keep our eye on that, of course.
[00:53:36]  But it's one of the many layers that's going on right now, the shuffle's going on in this administration.
[00:53:40]  And so we hope that Susie Wiles is obviously okay.
[00:53:42]  We do pray for her personal health and wish her nothing but the best.
[00:53:46]  All right, I want to shift gears over a little bit to a couple of other things we've got coming up ahead.
[00:53:51]  I don't know if you guys heard this, but Peter Thiel is hosting a secret Antichrist lecture in Rome.
[00:53:58]  He's setting up for a collision course with the Pope, of course, because, you know, the Pope has been trying to warn people about AI.
[00:54:04]  And so obviously, if you're Pete Trickel, you're going to step into the arena and head over to Rome to give a, I guess, a lecture about the Antichrist.
[00:54:14]  I mean, again, folks, why is he doing this again?
[00:54:17]  He's done this previously, as many of you guys know, and obviously as the founder of Palatir, he's warning about the one world state, but it's kind of strange, right?
[00:54:26]  Given the fact that he does run some of the biggest AI companies, he's the one who's pushing this and telling us all about this threat.
[00:54:33]  And again, what is his obsession with the Antichrist?
[00:54:36]  Now, we'll continue to obviously watch and see what happens here.
[00:54:40]  But again, I mean, this is like one of the many things that have a lot of people very curious and a little upset when it comes to Peter Thielfield.
[00:54:47]  And so we'll keep watching that, of course.
[00:54:49]  All right, folks.
[00:54:50]  Ann Vandersteel will be jumping on with us in a little bit.
[00:54:51]  I wanted to remind our audience, though.
[00:54:54]  As many of you guys heard last week, we heard from Alex Jones saying that he believes the network will possibly be shut down next month.
[00:55:01]  His date is April 15th, currently.
[00:55:03]  That's what he's been told by his legal team.
[00:55:05]  So we're going to make sure that all of you stay in touch with the InfoWar.
[00:55:09]  You got to head on over right now if you haven't done so already and download the app.
[00:55:12]  It's the Alex Jones app.
[00:55:13]  That's alexjonesapp.com.
[00:55:16]  Head on over right now.
[00:55:17]  Make sure you download that onto your phone.
[00:55:20]  Whether you have Android or an Apple phone, that is the best place to go grab that app right now.
[00:55:25]  And it is the best way to stay in contact with us just in case those doors do truly close.
[00:55:30]  Now, again, we are preparing for that and we're preparing for our next project.
[00:55:34]  And our next project is only possible because, well, of people like you.
[00:55:38]  I feel like I'm doing a PBS commercial here, but it's true.
[00:55:41]  We're not funded by taxpayer dollars.
[00:55:43]  We're not funded by big pharmaceutical companies.
[00:55:45]  We're funded by our audience.

=== Iran Defense Critical Component (15:34) ===

[00:55:46]  That seems to piss off a lot of people.
[00:55:48]  So if you want to keep operations going and you want to help fund and support our next project, you got to stop what you're doing right now.
[00:55:54]  Head on over to thealxjonestore.com as well.
[00:55:56]  Why?

[00:56:14]  We also have iodine as well.
[00:56:15]  As many of you guys know, when you pair up methylene blue with iodine, you get probably one of the best combinations ever when it comes to eliminating brain fog.
[00:56:23]  Americans need iodine in their diet.
[00:56:25]  You can't live without it.
[00:56:26]  So head on over right now, grab yourself some iodine, methylene blue, and snag it before it's too late.
[00:56:31]  Again, if you are a VIP member, you get 50% off iodine, of course.
[00:56:36]  So stop what you're doing.
[00:56:37]  Become a VIP member too.
[00:56:39]  That helps us plan for our future projects.
[00:56:41]  Of course, when you support us there and head on over, thealxjonesstore.com.
[00:56:44]  All right.
[00:56:44]  Ann Vandersteel jumping on with us in just a second.
[00:56:46]  Don't go anywhere.
[00:57:07]  We got some breaking news just moments ago.
[00:57:09]  Joe Kent actually posting to X.
[00:57:12]  And I've never seen a resignation letter like this before.
[00:57:15]  Joe Kent is now calling out President Trump and his resignation letter for being misled by Israel and by a lot of these pro-war media figures.
[00:57:26]  Now, obviously, tensions have been very, very high in all of this.
[00:57:29]  We all know just that.
[00:57:30]  If you've been paying attention to people on X, everyone's fired up over the issue.
[00:57:34]  And that's because the propaganda is real on both sides, on both sides.
[00:57:37]  But the reality of it is, is a lot of Americans, regardless of how you feel about Iran, have been asking the president for specifics as to why he thought it was urgent to go out there and lead these attacks in Iran.
[00:57:48]  And again, I've asked those questions and unfortunately have not received any responses.
[00:57:52]  We were constantly told that there was classified information that we couldn't figure out, we couldn't divulge and they wouldn't give it to us.
[00:57:58]  And so that was kind of the wall we were up against.
[00:58:00]  Joe Kent just coming out now and offering his resignation because he does not believe in the president's mission and war in Iran.
[00:58:07]  He specifically calls out the president.
[00:58:09]  Again, Joe Kent is someone, given his position, is privy to classified information.
[00:58:14]  So when they hide behind that, we can't tell you why.
[00:58:16]  You just have to trust the plan nonsense.
[00:58:20]  Understand something.
[00:58:20]  Joe Ken has seen all the information that the president has likely seen.
[00:58:23]  And as the director of national counterterrorism, this man knows a threat better than anyone.
[00:58:28]  I've played the clips for you of him alerting the American people to the thousands of known terrorists releasing to this country.
[00:58:34]  And obviously, Joe Kent losing his wife to obviously another war in the Middle East.
[00:58:38]  He calls all that out.
[00:58:39]  He calls all that out in his resignation letter.
[00:58:41]  Joining me to discuss and to react to the news is Ann Vanderstiel.
[00:58:44]  She's an information war correspondent.
[00:58:47]  And we're very honored to have her on the program today.
[00:58:49]  And thanks for jumping on with us.
[00:58:51]  You know, we were planning on talking about the war in Iran with you.
[00:58:54]  And so the timing of this is quite impressive.
[00:58:57]  But man, oh man, Joe Kent releasing this letter publicly on X.
[00:59:01]  And it calls out the president specifically saying that he doesn't believe in the president's mission in Iran right now and thinking that the president has been misled by Israel and other very pro-Israel commentators on Fox and other networks.
[00:59:16]  So what do you make of this?
[00:59:18]  It's absolutely explosive, Brianna.
[00:59:21]  I mean, I was watching you live when you were getting the text message, you know, and talking about this letter.
[00:59:26]  I listened to every word.
[00:59:27]  I've got it up on my screen.
[00:59:28]  I'm reading it right now.
[00:59:29]  And frankly, I'm pretty blown away by it because this is somebody who was big time on the Trump train and, you know, has supported the president lockstep every step of the way.
[00:59:39]  He fought a battle to get into office and now to get to this position where the pinned tweet is the truth social post from President Trump, you know, lauding the fact that he's so excited to have him appointed into the director of national intelligence in the National Counterterrorism Center.
[00:59:55]  We're talking about a war on terror, right?
[00:59:57]  This is what President Trump, this is what every president has talked about now for decades.
[01:00:02]  We're 15 minutes from Iran having a nuclear bomb.
[01:00:06]  And again, I, you know, if you're just going to look at this holistically, the last time we had a terror attack from Iran of any kind was never, except that they took hostages.
[01:00:17]  But again, look at the situation that was predisposed to getting them to take hostage under the Jimmy Carter administration.
[01:00:25]  So we, the American military, not the men and women, but the people that are leading the military, the commanders in chief, the presidents, have always been on this crusade because they're basically bought and paid for by the central banking system.
[01:00:38]  The same people that are financing all sides of the wars, the same people that go in and finance the military and repay interest on that.
[01:00:45]  And then they have to go in and rebuild and finance the rebuilding of these countries that we destroy.
[01:00:49]  And we have, again, Wesley Clark, seven years, five, sorry, five, seven wars in five years.
[01:00:56]  You look at that and you realize this is an agenda.
[01:00:59]  And I think Joe Kent, who is, you know, really what he's doing here, this is a massive, what I would say a rupture inside the national security state.
[01:01:06]  He's walking away.
[01:01:08]  He's, you know, dropping a nuclear bomb, essentially.
[01:01:11]  And his claim is that this push towards the Iran war is not rooted in any imminent threat, but basically in the press and the pressure from Israel, which from where I'm sitting is basically doing the bidding of the central bankers, the people of the government of Israel are the same people that sit in that one square mile of a sovereign state called the city of London.
[01:01:30]  Yeah.
[01:01:30]  And, you know, I want to kind of dive into this a bit because the part that I find so fascinating about this is I've been asking the specific questions as to, they keep saying intimate threat.
[01:01:39]  They keep saying that there was this looming threat.
[01:01:41]  We've heard about this threat from Israel for three decades now.
[01:01:45]  And I do believe Iran is a threat.
[01:01:48]  Obviously, I know the regime itself is a threat, but I don't think it was a threat that needed to be handled right now.
[01:01:52]  It just seemed very abrupt.
[01:01:54]  It seemed very sudden.
[01:01:55]  And it didn't seem like it needed what took place.
[01:01:57]  There possibly was an avenue of communication going between both the administration and the regime.
[01:02:01]  Yeah.
[01:02:02]  And so I was just scratching my head and wondering why.
[01:02:03]  And every time I'd ask them on questions, they say, can't really talk about the details.
[01:02:06]  It's classified, but it's not that we're being bullied by Israel.
[01:02:09]  But the fact that Joe Kent is a figure who obviously has access to the classified information and is obviously well aware as to what the president was seeing behind the scenes, because he often is the one writing those intel briefings for the president, tells me everything I need to know.
[01:02:22]  There's nothing of substance behind the scenes.
[01:02:23]  And they're alluding that there is some type of classified information.
[01:02:26]  But with Kent stepping down, that tells me there's nothing there.
[01:02:29]  And it makes sense to you, and just to kind of throw this in before I let you jump in.
[01:02:33]  But when it comes to Tulsi Gabbard, I mean, Tulsi Gabbard obviously being very aggressive and against this before getting into her position.
[01:02:41]  I can only imagine what she was doing behind the scenes on all of this.
[01:02:44]  But what do you make of this?
[01:02:45]  If the people who are leading your national intelligence agencies are now calling you out and saying, hey, listen, there was nothing here and that you were being bullied into this by Israel.
[01:02:54]  I mean, how does the White House even defend themselves?
[01:02:56]  I mean, it's very clear now that that truly is the case.
[01:03:00]  It's really hard for them to defend themselves because, as Joe pointed out, you know, this is much deeper.
[01:03:05]  These are how narratives actually get shaped.
[01:03:06]  Look at what happened just in Iraq, right?
[01:03:08]  2003, the weapons of mass destruction, destruction, excuse me.
[01:03:13]  Later, what did we learn?
[01:03:14]  Well, it was exaggerated.
[01:03:15]  It was totally wrong, in fact.
[01:03:17]  And again, I just think this is another example.
[01:03:19]  And Joe Kent is finally standing up because he is reading the room, Brian Anna.
[01:03:24]  He is absolutely reading the room of the American people.
[01:03:26]  There is not overwhelming support for this war.
[01:03:29]  The propaganda that's coming out of the White House over the paid influencers.
[01:03:32]  And let's just stop for a second.
[01:03:34]  Brad Parscale, who was very successful at running the first Trump campaign on social media, is now working for Israel.
[01:03:40]  And Benjamin Netanyahu was very open about the fact that TikTok was really critical to shaping the minds of the younger generation of the people that are coming up and are going to be voting and are going to be running our country eventually.
[01:03:52]  So I have to, I wonder, you know, some of these influencers, are they on the Brad Parscale budget, which is basically Israel's money getting flaundered through to shape this narrative and to do the bidding of another country?
[01:04:04]  So, you know, to me, this is so absolutely damning for the White House because when someone at that level, I mean, the director of national intelligence under the National Counterterrorism Center walks away and says, I'm not going to support this, you can't just go, oh, well, you know, file that in the circular file.
[01:04:20]  No, you have to stop, dissect this.
[01:04:21]  And frankly, I hope Joe picks up the phone and calls because he needs to get in this conversation right now.
[01:04:26]  The fact that he is, you know, making such a bold statement and he's calling out everything that influencers like myself and yourself and others have been saying that aren't on the payroll of either Israel or the White House or worried about access to either of those because I'm not.
[01:04:42]  We're actually standing up and we're being vindicated here in some aspect where somebody that was a big Trump supporter is now saying, I'm thrown in the town because I didn't sign up for this.
[01:04:49]  Yeah.
[01:04:50]  And I think everyone wants to be on the right side of history when it comes to this.
[01:04:53]  And that's the reason why I haven't really had a strong take on Israel's involvement in this or Iran's involvement in all of this.
[01:04:59]  Obviously, I've been trying to just sit back and watch the facts.
[01:05:02]  Well, where's Bibi?
[01:05:03]  Why are we getting these AI videos, Brianna, of Bibi?
[01:05:06]  And why isn't he just at least?
[01:05:08]  I mean, look, if you are in hiding because clearly they want to kill him, understandably so, by the Iranians, I should say, why not at least just put a proof of life video out, hold a newspaper up with today's date on it, and say, hey, for all of you who are just out there pontificating that I am now dead, here I am.
[01:05:24]  You know, he's done all these AI videos to prove that he has his hands, but his rings keep disappearing.
[01:05:29]  I mean, the kind of videos they're putting out are so nonchalant and ridiculous.
[01:05:32]  You're in the middle of a war.
[01:05:34]  I have sources on the ground in Israel right now, including friends that are got family members in Lebanon.
[01:05:39]  What is going on in Lebanon with the incoming barrage from Israel?
[01:05:43]  And then what's happening in Tel Aviv?
[01:05:45]  Those things just Lebanon gets reported because it's Israel aggression, but Tel Aviv doesn't.
[01:05:50]  And Tel Aviv is getting hit hard.
[01:05:52]  They are getting these massive missiles in there that have multiple warheads on them and they're doing destruction.
[01:05:56]  The videos are starting to get out.
[01:05:58]  And I guess people have had enough.
[01:06:00]  And since they think Bibi may be dead, maybe they feel more emboldened to actually post this stuff.
[01:06:04]  But Joe Kent, who is calling out AIPAC as the most powerful lobbying organization in Washington, D.C., it's not a conspiracy.
[01:06:13]  It's total, it's political reality.
[01:06:16]  And so you even have, to further bolster this, you've got General, I think, Wesley Clark has also been speaking about the Middle East war plans and how they were circulating long before there was any justification.
[01:06:26]  Because again, this is the same general that was like, hey, we're going to go take seven countries in five years.
[01:06:30]  And this, again, looks to the greater Israel project.
[01:06:33]  These countries that have been hit, particularly the Middle East supporters where we have military bases, Iran is saying, and frankly, the NATO countries are supporting and they're going directly to Iran right now to negotiate with them to get their ships through because they need those goods.
[01:06:48]  They need that gas.
[01:06:48]  They need the natural gas and oil.
[01:06:50]  This is telling us that America just simply has worn out its welcome there.
[01:06:55]  And Kent's point is very simple.
[01:06:57]  When the foreign policy is being shaped by other countries and they're lobbying and they're not a national security threat, you're basically risking our Americans to go die for somebody else's interests.
[01:07:08]  That is really a bad policy.
[01:07:10]  And we need to be focused more in on what's happening in our country.
[01:07:13]  And I think Joe Kent is speaking to that.
[01:07:16]  And, you know, it really pissed me off, I got to say, when I heard the president talking about, you know, when he was talking and he made the announcement about what was happening in Iran and he said, you know, we might lose some people.
[01:07:25]  We might lose some service members.
[01:07:27]  And he was unacceptable.
[01:07:29]  It was very dismissive.
[01:07:30]  He was also questioned about, obviously, as they're carrying off the service members who have lost their lives in Iran, they're obviously taking them off the plane in their care.
[01:07:40]  And the president used that, or through his PAC, used that as a fundraising mechanism.
[01:07:45]  Now, we're constantly critical of Joe Biden when he was looking at the dead Afghan service members who were brought back in the United States, but they died in Afghanistan service members.
[01:07:52]  And he's looking at his watch.
[01:07:53]  And to be fair, it called hit for tat.
[01:07:55]  What the president's doing is absolutely disgraceful as well, using that as a fundraising opportunity.
[01:07:59]  And he was asked if he thought it was appropriate.
[01:08:01]  And he said, yeah, I did.
[01:08:03]  And so that in itself was pretty gross.
[01:08:05]  But I also want to get to clip 15 because this one also had me kind of fired up in it.
[01:08:09]  It's the president saying that the Iranian regime would have, again, this is the nukes, so he keeps saying, would have nuked the entire Middle East.
[01:08:16]  Again, no evidence of his claim, but still going to make it anyway.
[01:08:19]  Take a look at Clip 15.
[01:08:20]  Are you surprised that nobody briefed you ahead of time that that might be their retaliation?
[01:08:25]  Nobody, nobody, no, no, no.
[01:08:27]  No, the greatest experts, nobody thought they were going to hit.
[01:08:29]  They were, I wouldn't say friendly countries.
[01:08:31]  They were like neutral.
[01:08:32]  They lived with them for years.
[01:08:34]  Peter, they were going to take over the Middle East.
[01:08:37]  They were going to knock out Israel with their nuclear weapon.
[01:08:39]  But after we knocked out their nuclear potential, their nuclear potential weapon, they started building missiles, thousands and thousands of missiles.
[01:08:50]  And they were going to do it with missiles while they developed.
[01:08:54]  These are sick people.
[01:08:55]  While they developed nuclear, somehow they would have started a different site because that site was, you saw the site, the mountain.
[01:09:02]  They were going to go into a certain area, which we know exactly where it is.
[01:09:06]  And they were going to do that.
[01:09:08]  And it's incredible what we've done.
[01:09:12]  Again, he keeps saying that they were going to nuke the whole Middle East, but I haven't seen any evidence of that, Anne.
[01:09:18]  That's right.
[01:09:18]  And again, this is really rather shocking when you think about this is the playbook that has been used for decades, right?
[01:09:24]  That there's always some imminent threat.
[01:09:27]  And in my general, you know, from my perspective, I remember weapons of mass destruction from 9-11.
[01:09:32]  Who doesn't remember that story if you're, you know, whatever, 30 or 40 years and older?
[01:09:38]  You absolutely remember that narrative.
[01:09:40]  And listening to the president, it sounds like he is verbatim almost trying from memory to regurgitate some fraudulent CIA briefing, some kind of, you know, briefing that he's getting that is feeding this information, or he's listening directly to Israel.
[01:09:56]  And Bibi Netanyahu has talked about, you know, Iran being a nuclear threat for decades now.
[01:10:01]  That has never changed.
[01:10:03]  And it's nonstop.
[01:10:04]  And supposedly, we destroyed their nuclear capabilities six months ago.
[01:10:08]  So where all of a sudden are they getting the nuclear capabilities?
[01:10:12]  I can tell you right now, Iran on the defense is a critical component for the, you know, the BRICS and the Chinese Belt and Road initiative.
[01:10:22]  Iran has always been at a critical juncture.
[01:10:24]  It sits right at the north, south, east, west juncture for trade coming from the far east, going into western Europe and also out into the ocean and across the Atlantic.
[01:10:34]  I mean, this is critical from as, you know, when you're looking at trade routes and resources, Iran has the light sweet crude.
[01:10:41]  It's like gold in a bottle.
[01:10:43]  It's absolutely beautiful.
[01:10:44]  It's the best oil we've got on the planet.
[01:10:46]  And they've got the corner on the market on that.
[01:10:49]  They've got incredible trade routes that connect it everywhere.
[01:10:51]  And frankly, the Brits who took and started, you know, British petroleum, BP oil back then, they ran all of their Navy for free on the oil coming out of Iran for decades.
[01:11:01]  And this is a talk about the sort of the British East India playbook coming back to life through the city of London and the bankers.
[01:11:09]  They're fighting over this, and they've been using our military to position military installations all throughout the Middle East and be the threat and be the big bully and then create the narrative with the Assad, CIA, MI6 clan.

=== Charlie Kirk TSA Critique (14:20) ===

[01:11:21]  They're all one and the same.
[01:11:21]  There's no daylight between these intelligence agencies because they're all working on the same team.
[01:11:26]  And the fact of the matter is, what we're looking at now is even more explosive, Brianna.
[01:11:31]  You know, Joe Kent, I think, put a fine point on this, but when you pull back and you look at 100,000-foot level, we are literally at war between the central bankers that need commodities to run their AI, they need commodities to run all the computers and the financial systems and to print fiat and to create the illusion of wealth versus countries that actually generate the commodities.
[01:11:52]  And the world is changing right now.
[01:11:53]  The world is moving to a commodities and asset-backed financial system.
[01:11:57]  We're getting away from the fiat.
[01:11:59]  And this Iran war to me is sort of, it brings it all together because all those commodities came through Iran and the fiat was coming down to buy it.
[01:12:07]  Now the fiat is bankrupt.
[01:12:09]  Those fiat banks are bankrupt.
[01:12:10]  The central city of London is bankrupt.
[01:12:12]  And they are coming into Iran right now to collateralize the debt that they printed.
[01:12:16]  They need it.
[01:12:17]  This is what the war is.
[01:12:18]  And Israel is, you know, sort of the propaganda arm for, it's the outpost for the city of London sitting in the Middle East right now.
[01:12:25]  And they partnered with our mighty military.
[01:12:28]  And frankly, it's sad to see, but our mighty military is getting, you know, being abused by these drones or going after our own installations or going after, you know, they're retaliating for the bombing that we've done in the residential areas of Iran and the infrastructure areas of Iran.
[01:12:44]  You know, we've killed 170 school children.
[01:12:46]  I'm sure that was not on purpose.
[01:12:48]  I want to believe that.
[01:12:49]  But this is war accidents happens.
[01:12:50]  And frankly, this is a war being generated out of a fabricated narrative.
[01:12:54]  And frankly, Joe Kent is right to call it out.
[01:12:57]  Yeah.
[01:12:58]  And I also want to get to this clip too, because Charlie Kirk, before obviously he was assassinated, was very passionate on issues like this, but he also had the president's respect and ear.
[01:13:06]  And so when Charlie Kirk was murdered in front of the entire country, it was very, very obvious that we had lost somebody significant.
[01:13:13]  And he was, I feel like, the voice of reason, because sadly, all the people who are now are on the president, it appears are very, very toxic people.
[01:13:19]  Let's get to clip 16 and Charlie Kirk's thoughts on a potential war with Iran.
[01:13:24]  Iran does have a conventional military.
[01:13:27]  They are a proud and they are a big country.
[01:13:29]  Possible case scenario is Iran says, okay, you humiliated us.
[01:13:32]  You killed all of our leaders.
[01:13:35]  We're going to go make this a regional mess and try to get as many people involved as possible.
[01:13:40]  They're going to go after Americans.
[01:13:41]  They're going to go after Saudis.
[01:13:43]  They're going to go after everybody imaginable just to create a big mess and to try to draw the world into it.
[01:13:49]  Because understand the Iranian people are widely respected and not necessarily are always in sync with leadership.
[01:13:57]  But if and when the people of Iran feel like Persia is being defaced and humiliated and disrespected, we don't know where that is going to go.
[01:14:05]  And that's my final reason why I am always skeptical of military intervention.
[01:14:12]  And when a lot of the sometimes warmongering wing gets too excited, you don't know, actually.
[01:14:18]  You need to have a lot of humility.
[01:14:21]  And those words were by far the truest words we ever heard, honestly, Anne.
[01:14:27]  And when I'm listening to him speak, he knew it.
[01:14:30]  He knew that they were going to go after their surrounding neighbors to get them all involved in this war.
[01:14:34]  I mean, how did Charlie Kirk know this?
[01:14:36]  And the president of the United States and the members of his administration had no idea that this was going to be the result if they attacked Iran.
[01:14:43]  It's quite strange when you think about it.
[01:14:45]  Well, remember, Charlie Kirk had a lot of donors that were Jewish and, you know, had a lot of influence.
[01:14:51]  And Charlie Kirk started to wake up to what was really going on and who was really wielding the influence.
[01:14:57]  I'm sure he recognized what was happening with the donors in AIPAC.
[01:15:01]  I mean, pretty much everybody except save a few people are not recipients of AIPAC in our United States Congress.
[01:15:08]  So if Charlie Kirk is coming to those realizations and he's talking to the people that fund these and have an agenda and he's having these intimate conversations and they believe Charlie is one of them.
[01:15:18]  And as his wife said, he would come home on Friday nights and put his cell phone in the drawer and say, Shabbat Shalom.
[01:15:25]  If they really believed he was on their side mentally and passionately, then of course they probably divulge a lot of information to him.
[01:15:33]  And when he recognized what the reality of the situation is, that we are being used and abused and the taxpayers are nothing more than chattel to fund this and we're putting our own military at risk.
[01:15:43]  And he recognized the whole WMD narrative is just completely bogus.
[01:15:49]  You know, you put all these things together.
[01:15:50]  It's no wonder he started to push back.
[01:15:52]  Charlie Kirk, at the heart of it all, was a very, very good man.
[01:15:55]  And he had the best of intentions for our country.
[01:15:57]  I remember meeting him when he was very, very young back in 2016 out at a conference in Colorado.
[01:16:03]  And he had his, you know, his little groupies there and they had big government sucked and they had their tent of things.
[01:16:08]  But Charlie spoke eloquently about what really mattered in America.
[01:16:11]  And it was about focusing on America and making us the priority for the government in terms of the government just needs to support us.
[01:16:18]  They don't need to be massive.
[01:16:19]  They don't need to have this military-industrial complex.
[01:16:21]  It has to be about making sure our needs are met and that our right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness is never infringed.
[01:16:28]  And today, this is the exact opposite of what we're getting.
[01:16:31]  Our Constitutional Republic is layered underneath a massive corporatocracy that is just being destroyed by a military-industrial complex financed by an out-of-control central banking system.
[01:16:42]  And those people, again, that are running all that are the same people that are running the Israeli government.
[01:16:47]  The people of Israel are pretty much just about as abused as we are here in the United States.
[01:16:51]  And I think that sort of sort of that theme runs through around the world, particularly in countries that are run by madmen bankers that don't care about human lives.
[01:16:59]  They only care about what's going into their bottom line.
[01:17:01]  Charlie Kirk was before his time.
[01:17:04]  Yeah, he was.
[01:17:05]  He was.
[01:17:06]  And that's what's so devastating about his loss because, you know, many speculated that he was going to one day be president of the United States or at least make a run for it.
[01:17:13]  And he would have been an incredible leader.
[01:17:15]  Yeah.
[01:17:15]  Yeah.
[01:17:16]  He could have.
[01:17:16]  And, you know, we got about two minutes and we're going to carry you over to the next segment as well.
[01:17:20]  I kind of want to get your reaction to, well, what the potentially or maybe your prediction as to how the president's going to react to this, because obviously he's going to deem this letter that Joe Kennedy just passed down as betrayal, as he's going to take it personal rather than a public awakening.
[01:17:35]  So the American people know not to support this war.
[01:17:38]  And so the president realizes that he is being consumed by Israeli intel that is not in the American people's best interest.
[01:17:45]  How do you think he's going to handle this?
[01:17:46]  You think he's going to be nice and polite and wish Joe Kent the best, or do you think he's going to launch a full-on attack on Joe Kent?
[01:17:52]  You know, that's a great question.
[01:17:54]  I think it's going to be hard for him to launch a full-on attack on Joe Kent.
[01:17:58]  I think he will try to separate, but he has got his social media advocates out there, those that'll surrogate for what he is thinking, or at least what the White House wants to push out, whatever it is Susie Wiles wants to push out.
[01:18:12]  That machine, I believe, will come to life.
[01:18:14]  And there's a few accounts.
[01:18:15]  I don't want to even give him airtime credit, but there are some big accounts out there.
[01:18:19]  We all know who they are.
[01:18:20]  That'll probably go in at the defense of the president.
[01:18:22]  So, because they had been, you know, a lot of them have been quiet about the war.
[01:18:26]  They have, you know, comments like, let him cook, meaning let the president do whatever he wants to do.
[01:18:30]  And frankly, that is the most asinine thing somebody can say, Brianna, because at the end of the day, you and I both know the president works for us and he works at the pleasure of the American people.
[01:18:38]  That's why we have elections.
[01:18:39]  And at this point, this war is becoming such a black eye for this president.
[01:18:44]  And I think Joe Kent calling it out is going to be hard for him to swallow.
[01:18:48]  But at the same token, I think he's just going to pivot and move to something else, particularly since he has pinned right now on the top of his true social profile about this executive order and making housing affordable for Americans again.
[01:19:00]  Because the noise that is coming out of America is, what about us right now?
[01:19:04]  Why are we focused over there?
[01:19:06]  What about us?
[01:19:07]  And again, Joe Kent called out all the dirty underbelly of the reasons that we are over there, which have nothing to do with improving American lives right now.
[01:19:14]  And the president is going to have to realize that, particularly as Susie Wiles has now recently divulged, sadly, that she has breast cancer.
[01:19:20]  She needs to attend to that.
[01:19:21]  I think that's going to be her exit strategy.
[01:19:23]  And it should be.
[01:19:24]  In all respects, it should be her exit strategy.
[01:19:26]  But people abandoning ship right now, left and right, is not a good look for this president.
[01:19:31]  And it's going to make him vulnerable in the midterms and mostly right after with impeachment possibilities.
[01:19:35]  Especially with Chrissy Noam shifting over away from DHS.
[01:19:38]  All right, Ann, stay tight.
[01:19:39]  We're going to cover a couple more topics, folks.
[01:19:41]  We'll be right back in just a moment.
[01:19:48]  Welcome back to the American Journal.
[01:19:50]  We're excited.
[01:19:50]  You're all jumping on with us today.
[01:19:52]  All right.
[01:19:52]  Breaking news, obviously, we just kind of dove into a little bit with Ann Vanderdiel, who still joins us now.
[01:19:57]  And is going over the big breaking story, which is Joe Kent stepping away and calling out the president for buying into Israeli propaganda.
[01:20:05]  The Israelis obviously trying their very best.
[01:20:07]  The government itself, I should say, pushing President Trump into this war.
[01:20:11]  We've heard the reports before, but it looks like Kent's actually saying that's true.
[01:20:15]  And again, this is somebody who's privy to classified information.
[01:20:18]  So if he's telling you it's true, it's probably true.
[01:20:20]  Ann Vander still joins us still.
[01:20:22]  And I want to dive into this with Ann, this next topic with Ann regarding the Save America Act.
[01:20:28]  Now, as many of you guys at home know, President Trump has been very, very focused at pushing this through.
[01:20:33]  And in clip 17, the leader in the Senate, John Thune, discusses what his plans are for this week in regards to the bill.
[01:20:41]  Take a listen.
[01:20:42]  Next week, I will be bringing the Save America Act to the floor, and we'll be having a full and robust debate.
[01:20:50]  So, Mr. President, what is the Save America Act?
[01:20:54]  It is a package of common sense policies, the kind of common sense policies that should get an automatic yes vote from literally every member of this body.
[01:21:05]  At the core of the Save America Act is the requirement that individuals provide proof of citizenship to register to vote and then show an ID when they go to the polls.
[01:21:14]  In other words, it would require Americans to demonstrate that they're eligible to vote and that they are who they say they are.
[01:21:22]  All right, the president also taking the truth social this morning to highlight the bill.
[01:21:25]  Obviously, it's going to be making its way through the Senate.
[01:21:29]  Tomorrow is the plan, obviously, but it's not going to pass.
[01:21:31]  We all know that.
[01:21:32]  The numbers don't back it up.
[01:21:34]  The president going off of Truth Social today is saying no more rigged elections, voter ID, proof of citizenship, no rigged mail-in voting.
[01:21:41]  Then he goes on to calling out those who obviously are trying to mediate children.
[01:21:45]  And he says, no transgender mutilation of our children as well.
[01:21:50]  It was a bit of a rant, but Ann is joining me to react to all of this.
[01:21:54]  You know, and even the Senate puts us up tomorrow for a vote.
[01:21:56]  It's not going to pass because it doesn't have the support in the Senate.
[01:21:59]  It needs to make its way through.
[01:22:01]  What do you make of all of this?
[01:22:02]  Because again, John Thun knows that and he's been telling the president that.
[01:22:05]  He says the president is well aware, but they keep pushing for them to push it through the Senate.
[01:22:09]  What do you make of it?
[01:22:10]  Yeah, well, it's the same old, same old.
[01:22:12]  I mean, this is such a dog and pony show.
[01:22:14]  so over the broken record with the banging gavels on these hearings that go nowhere, the posturing on the on the Senate floor that just gives the American people another show.
[01:22:24]  So John Thune says he's going to bring the Save America Act to the floor.
[01:22:27]  Well, again, if I was new to the game, I'd go, ooh, that sounds like progress.
[01:22:31]  But it's back to the same old, same old procedural vote.
[01:22:35]  They need 60 votes just to move this bill forward.
[01:22:39]  You just said it.
[01:22:39]  They don't have them.
[01:22:40]  We all know it.
[01:22:41]  We've been talking about this for over a month.
[01:22:43]  So it's going to fail.
[01:22:44]  And well, they're going to get to say, yep, we tried.
[01:22:47]  And that's, again, this is, Brianna, this is just so disgusting and so broken.
[01:22:51]  And we're all so tired of it.
[01:22:53]  You know, Alex Jones has been beating the drum for 20 years.
[01:22:56]  You've been doing the morning show.
[01:22:57]  I heard you this morning.
[01:22:58]  You're not a morning person.
[01:23:00]  This is just so, it's, it's so depressing on so many levels because you've got senators like John Corn Cornine, right?
[01:23:06]  The big, the big John Cornyn.
[01:23:08]  He had to go and, you know, get the, you know, try and get the Trump support.
[01:23:11]  He's now suddenly saying that maybe we should change the filibuster.
[01:23:15]  Well, dude, that's a little too late at this point.
[01:23:18]  Then you've got Tillis.
[01:23:19]  You've got a few other Republicans who are saying, no, we're not going to do that.
[01:23:22]  So again, it's the bickering back and forth.
[01:23:24]  It doesn't mean they're going to do a darn thing.
[01:23:26]  They want the status quo.
[01:23:28]  They need a controversy to run on.
[01:23:30]  They need to fight over something and get on some sort of one side or the other of the issue, depending on who they're speaking to.
[01:23:36]  So the bill basically is stuck between two things, Dems, who will never vote for it, and the Republicans, well, they just, they're too, they just can't change the rules to pass it because, you know, they have to have the filibuster.
[01:23:49]  So this is ridiculous.
[01:23:50]  And then, you know, you, you juxtapose that and they're holding DHS funding hostage.
[01:23:55]  So I'm traveling tomorrow.
[01:23:56]  I have friends traveling tomorrow and we're all going, crap, we're going to miss our flights because you know what?
[01:24:00]  I'm not going to get to the airport five hours early to stand on a TSA line.
[01:24:04]  If that happens, I miss my flight.
[01:24:06]  So be it.
[01:24:06]  This is where we're at.
[01:24:07]  And I guess Americans at some point, Brianna, have to feel the pain so much and make it so uncomfortable that they finally say enough and that they stop supporting and cheerleading for one side or the other over an argument that is designed to absolutely go nowhere and just maintain the status quo of chaos because that's what they do best in Congress.
[01:24:27]  Yeah, no, it is true.
[01:24:28]  It is true.
[01:24:28]  And I think Americans need to feel the burden because so many people don't want to get involved in the political discussions these days.
[01:24:34]  And so they don't feel it.
[01:24:35]  They don't want to get involved until it starts to affect them.
[01:24:37]  And I think the TSA shutdown would be actually the way to go about that.
[01:24:40]  I've been advocating for, I say, just shut down TSA altogether.
[01:24:44]  Yeah, you might as well.
[01:24:46]  I mean, listen, people, these people clearly don't want to fund it.
[01:24:48]  And I was listening to Democrats too yesterday arguing.
[01:24:51]  It's like, oh, well, we wanted to just push through TSA funding.
[01:24:53]  That's not a thing.
[01:24:54]  You don't get to just exclusively pick the little entities inside of DHS that you get to fund.
[01:24:58]  Either believe that national security is being worked on by DHS or you don't believe in it.
[01:25:04]  And they obviously claim that they believe in it.
[01:25:06]  So, okay, if you believe it, I mean, I believe that DHS should be downsized completely.
[01:25:10]  But again, they don't see it that way.
[01:25:12]  They've grown big government.
[01:25:13]  They've done all these things.
[01:25:14]  And now they're trying to make sure that ICE and obviously Border Patrol and all these other agencies don't get funding because they want the invasion to continue on in this country.
[01:25:23]  And, you know, Americans have had enough.
[01:25:25]  And it's just so frustrating to see it.
[01:25:26]  But until people start actually getting affected by it, by heading to the airport and it's not going so well for them, that's when they'll start stepping into the fray.
[01:25:34]  But I also want to go over this too, because Anne, I know you have been hot on this topic.
[01:25:38]  And so I wanted to give you the floor to discuss it with our audience.

=== SEC Fraud Jury Instructions (04:41) ===

[01:25:41]  But just recently, a Manhattan federal jury has just unanimously convicted all three of these individuals who you are now advocating for a pardon.
[01:25:52]  It's in regards to security fraud, wire fraud and investment, advisor fraud.
[01:25:58]  Now they were convicted.
[01:25:59]  They're expected.
[01:26:00]  I think they're expected to be sentenced soon.
[01:26:02]  I did see some dates up on my web.
[01:26:06]  April 15th.
[01:26:07]  Yeah, I think they were originally supposed to, it might have been March, might have been the original date that I saw, but I know that there was something going on.
[01:26:12]  Okay.
[01:26:12]  So I kind of want you to walk our audience through all of this because this is a case you've been following extensively and you're looking to see the president pardon all three of these defendants.
[01:26:20]  So we'll give you the floor to advocate for just that.
[01:26:24]  Sure.
[01:26:24]  Well, thank you so much.
[01:26:25]  I appreciate that.
[01:26:26]  This is a company, Straight Path Ventures, which was a pre-IP, they were a, they invested in pre-IPO stocks like Palantir, like Airbnb and others.
[01:26:37]  And they had over a $400 million book of investments that had made two, 3X, even more on some of the investments.
[01:26:44]  They had, you know, I think over 100 investors that were extremely satisfied.
[01:26:50]  In fact, nobody was ever dissatisfied with the money that they made through this as a, what we would call a, and it was not, it was not a registered insurance advisor, meaning this was outside the scope of the SEC.
[01:27:03]  The SEC has really no jurisdiction over this entity at all because the SEC can only have jurisdiction over the registered investment advisors.
[01:27:12]  And so that being said, the SEC got wind of this company's success.
[01:27:19]  They reached out to the DDOJ through the Southern District of New York and started in cahoots, collaborating and having emails, for which the three group of people who were seeking pardons for actually FOIAed for those emails.
[01:27:31]  Oddly enough, they FOIAed months ago.
[01:27:33]  They're being told, oh, these emails won't be available until long past their sentencing deadline.
[01:27:39]  So they won't even be able to show any sort of collusion.
[01:27:41]  But here's where it gets very interesting, because they were so successful and because they were Trump supporters at the time and they still are.
[01:27:51]  The targeting of this and the timing of all this is very, very interesting.
[01:27:56]  But when you have the judge giving the jury who most of them slept through the actual 10-day trial, they weren't even paying attention.
[01:28:05]  Several of them, the judge was like, are you okay over there?
[01:28:08]  Didn't care.
[01:28:09]  The jury didn't have to pay attention.
[01:28:11]  They were given instructions on the subject that's extremely technical.
[01:28:14]  When you start talking about the financial world, you and I might glaze over for some of this.
[01:28:19]  I try to pay attention to the finer point details, but it's not my lane, essentially.
[01:28:23]  And neither was it the lane of these jury members who, again, slept through a lot of this.
[01:28:27]  When you're being told by the jury that you are to just take instructions based on the fact that this is an entity that is a registered investment advisor versus not being one, which was factually inaccurate.
[01:28:40]  And the jury is now going out to make a deliberation.
[01:28:43]  They came back so quickly after they've been given all these instructions and just saw them all as guilty.
[01:28:49]  Again, you're in the Southern District of New York.
[01:28:51]  They love to get scalps.
[01:28:53]  All of the evidence that has been presented or was and was actually a lot of it was prevented from being presented was exonerated, was exculpatory and exonerated all of them from what they were claimed to have been charged with.
[01:29:06]  In other words, they were being charged as being like a Ponzi scheme, similar to what a Madoff was.
[01:29:10]  Nothing like that happened.
[01:29:11]  They actually gave more money back to their investors than some of the investors actually invested in in terms of the returns on the investment.
[01:29:18]  They never had to divulge any of the bookkeeping to the SEC, but when the SEC came asking for it, they happily opened the kimono and gave them everything because they had nothing to hide.
[01:29:27]  And the SEC turned around and fabricated a bunch of evidence like they do.
[01:29:31]  But here's where it's very interesting.
[01:29:32]  They accused this firm of selling shares they didn't own.
[01:29:36]  Now, where have we heard that before?
[01:29:37]  Oh, that's right.
[01:29:38]  I reported on another entity, MMTLP, where actually Wall Street sold hundreds of millions of shares they didn't own and then colluded with the SEC to make sure that they would never get caught with fabricated shares by having to exchange them for the real thing.
[01:29:53]  So again, the SEC talks out of both sides of its mouth, but they use this to deliberately attack certain people and grab either the intellectual property through bankruptcy.
[01:30:02]  And the trustee in this particular case has now pulled out at least $30 million.
[01:30:06]  And the investors are furious because now they're getting back less than a third of what they actually invested.
[01:30:12]  And this has all happened because it was deliberately shut down and put into bankruptcy proceedings.
[01:30:17]  So the evidence is very clear.
[01:30:19]  President Trump has got three letters that have been drafted by Peter Ticton.

=== Dan Bongino Expertise Questioned (03:31) ===

[01:30:22]  Ed Martin has these letters right now.
[01:30:24]  And hopefully President Trump will see to it that these three people, when he reads all this and he understands it's the same Southern district that's come after him, perhaps he'll show leniency and give him a pardon of innocence because these people are innocent.
[01:30:36]  Yeah, yeah.
[01:30:37]  And we'll be waiting to see how that, how that all unravels.
[01:30:40]  I know Ed Martin's been working aggressively hard to get several people pardoned, several defendants who have been abused.
[01:30:46]  He's a patriot.
[01:30:47]  And sadly, he's up against a lot these guys and these days.
[01:30:51]  And it's really upsetting because, again, they're pushing back and very hard on Ed Martin.
[01:30:55]  You know, we talked about how the bar is going after him.
[01:30:57]  We did an extensive deep dive into that.
[01:30:59]  We've also talked about, obviously, the weaponization division within the DOJ being shut down abruptly, but the president obviously still respected Ed Martin and keeping him as a pardon attorney.
[01:31:08]  When I asked about certain pardons, though, I'm told quite often that this is just sitting on Todd Blanche's desk and that there's nothing more as an update status that they could give me.
[01:31:17]  So we hope for the best for these three.
[01:31:20]  I mean, it just seems to be like a never-ending cycle, unfortunately, when it comes to these pardons.
[01:31:24]  It doesn't seem like a lot of them are going anywhere, but I do hope that those who are innocent are vindicated through the pardon process.
[01:31:31]  And the president really is paying attention to that.
[01:31:33]  And I want to pivot for a half a second here, though, because I just saw as you and I were going back and forth and talking about what the rebuttal from the president might be.
[01:31:41]  Those who obviously are members or former members of the administration or working within the White House have put up several tweets.
[01:31:47]  But, you know, to our control room, I sent over this Dan Bongino tweet that just went up.
[01:31:51]  And he keeps going out there and saying that Iran was an intimate threat to the United States.
[01:31:56]  They were committed to our destruction.
[01:31:58]  And anyone telling you otherwise is misleading.
[01:32:01]  Again, he's going into this detail between their lethal plotting against U.S. targets and continued efforts to shield their attempt, obviously, to reconstruct their nuclear plan program itself, ballistic missiles.
[01:32:14]  He's also citing their global terrorism support.
[01:32:17]  He keeps saying, again, that they're a threat.
[01:32:20]  But, and it's the question that I keep asking and I'm not getting a response on is why now?
[01:32:27]  These things have been floated out there for decades.
[01:32:29]  And we were told that the strikes that took place wiped out the majority of their capabilities.
[01:32:35]  That was mid last year.
[01:32:37]  And so now we're hearing that, no, well, they were actually a real threat and we had to go out there and physically launch these strikes on behalf of with Israel, I should say, in partnership with Israel.
[01:32:46]  But Bongino coming out here and defending it again, it's just very frustrating to see because I couldn't imagine a situation where Joe Kent, someone, and again, Dan Bongino hasn't served in our military.
[01:32:57]  So I listen to our veterans and I go with what they're saying because they're the level of expertise.
[01:33:02]  They're the people who are affected by all of this.
[01:33:04]  Joe Kent 11 times was sent over there.
[01:33:06]  He lost his wife.
[01:33:07]  He's lost a lot.
[01:33:08]  So when he's sitting back and he's watching and he's going through the classified information, I believe him over people like Dan Bongino, who has, you know, sadly been a disappointment over at the FBI.
[01:33:18]  And I get it.
[01:33:19]  He obviously didn't have that much control.
[01:33:21]  Yeah, but he's over here going after people like Megan Kelly and all these podcasters and aggressively hard, harder than he went against these deep state operatives.
[01:33:28]  And it's very discouraging because he was someone who I endorse.
[01:33:31]  He's someone who I really do like and think is a great, is a great voice.
[01:33:35]  But man, to go after Kent and say he's trying to mislead us.
[01:33:39]  I mean, he has access to classified information.
[01:33:41]  This is his area of expertise.
[01:33:43]  What would Dan Bongino know that Joe Kent won it?
[01:33:46]  Exactly.
[01:33:47]  And he just, and I don't believe he knows anything that Joe Kent doesn't.
[01:33:50]  This guy, why, why now?
[01:33:52]  You asked that question.
[01:33:53]  Why now?

=== Gold Contracts Sound Money (03:34) ===

[01:33:54]  The financial system of the central banking countries is collapsing right now under the weight of its own hubris and fiat printing.
[01:34:00]  That's why now.
[01:34:01]  And we are literally up against it with the commodities-backed countries.
[01:34:04]  Those countries, the BRICS nations literally are standing together strongly right now because they're basing their own and they're doing trade based on the natural resources that they have.
[01:34:14]  And sadly, you know, we don't do that.
[01:34:16]  We ignored what we have in the ground here with the exception of oil.
[01:34:20]  And we've printed money to add infinitum.
[01:34:23]  And it's at the behest of the people of the central banking powers.
[01:34:26]  And those are the people that are creating this right now.
[01:34:28]  And they see Iran as a very critical point.
[01:34:31]  Not to mention, when you have a war and you have a financial system collapsing, hey, you know, people aren't paying attention to the wallet.
[01:34:37]  They're worried about what's going on over the war.
[01:34:39]  They constantly need a massive distraction in order to go through this reset.
[01:34:43]  And if I could, just quickly, there's a company out there named Abbex.
[01:34:47]  I don't know if I've talked about this on your show or not, but this company actually has a physical commodities exchange in which you can actually trade real physical commodities, liquid natural gas.
[01:34:57]  They're going to be doing, oh, they have oil, gold contracts, battery metals, carbon, blah, blah, blah.
[01:35:02]  They have the actual ability to trade physical assets and get paid in real time, basically going around the central bankers.
[01:35:08]  Because as you know, when you buy something and you wire somebody money across the world, it sits somewhere in space for five days while somebody else is making interest on that money and putting it to work while the person who sold you something is waiting to receive.
[01:35:20]  So now you're going to trade in the speed of light right now, in addition to the fact that whatever asset you're selling from America to China or America to Australia, whatever it is, will actually have a legal title attached to it.
[01:35:34]  So now when you want to, as somebody who's buying and trading liquid natural gas, when you have a tanker going from, say, the port of, you know, of Iran and it's going maybe to India, if somebody else, another buyer comes along that India recognizes pays, will pay more than what they did, that Indian buyer can now flip that LNG tanker in real time to the next buyer.
[01:35:56]  Money is now going to move at the speed of light, whereas in the past, it hasn't.
[01:35:59]  And this has been the holdup.
[01:36:00]  This has been the control these countries have had.
[01:36:03]  And ABEX is going to change that.
[01:36:04]  Their website is incredible.
[01:36:06]  It's ABAXX.exchange.
[01:36:08]  They've got a lot going on.
[01:36:09]  They just launched their gold contracts.
[01:36:11]  India just jumped in.
[01:36:12]  They are exploding.
[01:36:13]  And guess what?
[01:36:14]  Gold is the sound money.
[01:36:16]  It's biblical.
[01:36:16]  It is a sound money.
[01:36:17]  And this is how BRICS nations are actually settling their trade deficits.
[01:36:22]  So when one BRICS country buys something from another and they owe money, they paid in gold and they're using the ABEX exchange to do it.
[01:36:28]  It's absolutely fantastic.
[01:36:29]  This is the great reset part of it.
[01:36:31]  And this is being done outside the demons of the central bankers, which have just been ruling the world for a thousand years, charging usuri, et cetera.
[01:36:39]  The city of London goes back to 1067.
[01:36:42]  So we've got to, we've got to get with the program.
[01:36:45]  And I think that the direction our country is going, when you look at the fact they've now swapped Bitcoin out for the CBDCs and they've now made it track and traceable with the Clarity and Genius Acts, folks, you've been snookered.
[01:36:57]  You know, I hate to say it, but I think Bitcoin is an NSA CIA artifact.
[01:37:02]  And now they've used it.
[01:37:03]  They've gotten you to think you're going to be on your own.
[01:37:05]  You're sovereign and you're decentralized, but no, you're not.
[01:37:08]  You're now sucked back into doing business with the federal central banking system.
[01:37:12]  And they've connected it all.
[01:37:14]  So again, they sort of kettled you into that, just like they're trying to kettle us into this war and give us a reason why we need this war.
[01:37:20]  No, we need this war to collateralize the debt.
[01:37:22]  We need this war to, you know, to fight basically the BRICS, you know, sovereign nations.
[01:37:26]  It's, it's really, to me, so straightly obvious.

=== Bitcoin NSA Artifact Theory (06:12) ===

[01:37:29]  And I think Joe Kent put a lot of stuff, some detail in there that Americans just have thought they thought was happening, but now they really believe, yeah, I think we're getting some confirmation that all is not what we believe to be coming out of DC.
[01:37:40]  Yeah.
[01:37:40]  Yeah.
[01:37:41]  Well, that's no surprise over here.
[01:37:42]  And, you know, let's let's pivot a little bit to something a little bit happier rather than this.
[01:37:48]  I know.
[01:37:48]  I'm like, every day.
[01:37:50]  I am always like looking for a positive story.
[01:37:52]  Well, you and I both, girl, because I'm like, okay, I can use some positivity.
[01:37:56]  I try my best.
[01:37:57]  If people follow me on X, you know, I'm posting pictures of the dogs constantly.
[01:38:00]  I'm like posting videos.
[01:38:02]  Thank you.
[01:38:03]  Thank you.
[01:38:03]  I was just talking about this with Mel too.
[01:38:05]  I'm like, I'm always just looking for like a little bit more of a positive thing to pose because I just feel like there's so much negativity.
[01:38:09]  But this is actually a positive one.
[01:38:11]  You sent this to me today.
[01:38:12]  So I want to go over this.
[01:38:13]  At the Oscars, there's an Irish actress, Jessie Buckley, who actually gave a really incredible speech.
[01:38:19]  Take a listen.
[01:38:20]  Clip 18.
[01:38:21]  Family, my Irish family, they're all here.
[01:38:24]  Ireland bought them flights.
[01:38:26]  Where are you?
[01:38:29]  Can you just, mom, dad, thank you for teaching us to dream and to never be defined by expectation, but to carve from your own passion.
[01:38:40]  You.
[01:38:42]  Fred, I love you, man.
[01:38:45]  I love you.
[01:38:45]  You're the most incredible dad.
[01:38:47]  You're my best friend.
[01:38:48]  And I want to have 20,000 more babies with you.
[01:38:50]  I do.
[01:38:51]  I do.
[01:38:53]  And Isla, my little girl who is eight months, who has absolutely no idea what's going on and is probably dreaming of milk.
[01:39:00]  But this is kind of a big deal.
[01:39:03]  And I love you and I love being your mom and I can't wait to discover life beside you.
[01:39:08]  Chloe and Maggie, you to get to know this incandescent woman and journey to understand the capacity of a mother's love is the greatest collision of my life.
[01:39:29]  It's Mother's Day in the UK today.
[01:39:36]  So I would like to dedicate this to the beautiful chaos of a mother's heart.
[01:39:46]  We come from a lineage of women who continue to create against all odds.
[01:39:52]  Thank you for recognizing me in this role.
[01:39:55]  This is the greatest honor.
[01:39:56]  I can't even believe it.
[01:39:58]  Gurv Mila Mila Mahogut Slan.
[01:40:01]  All right, Ann, I love this because she's obviously praising motherhood and speaking positively about her husband, which is kind of crazy because we're celebrating that.
[01:40:10]  And you would think this would be like the norm in this society, but unfortunately, it's not.
[01:40:15]  Your reaction to watching that video as a mother yourself.
[01:40:18]  Oh my gosh.
[01:40:20]  Again, at the end of the day, the reason we do what we do is because we want to make the world a better place for our children.
[01:40:25]  And to see a woman stand up in front of a room of demons, frankly, I think most of Hollywood is full of demonic people, to stand there and praise motherhood, something that Hollywood doesn't revere at all.
[01:40:35]  You know, they've demonized women, turned us into, you've got to be femme's and feminazis, et cetera, et cetera.
[01:40:41]  I just loved this.
[01:40:42]  And she was so unabashedly proud of being a mom and giving praise to her husband and to her children.
[01:40:49]  And for her, being the first Irish actress ever to get an Oscar win like this was massive.
[01:40:55]  So, I mean, she hit a lot of really important points and got the room to stop and think.
[01:41:00]  And I saw the room so quiet.
[01:41:02]  I think they were sort of stunned.
[01:41:03]  I saw some smiles, but as you looked across the room in the audience, you saw people were kind of like, I can't believe she's going in this direction to talk about it.
[01:41:11]  She's not just thanking the academy and thanking her directors and her producers.
[01:41:14]  No, she's thanking her family.
[01:41:16]  And again, I say this all the time, Brianna.
[01:41:18]  If we don't worry about making American families great, how do you make America great?
[01:41:22]  We are the backstop, the cornerstone.
[01:41:24]  We are the keystone.
[01:41:25]  We are all of it.
[01:41:26]  We are everything this country is.
[01:41:28]  And without great families and without praising mothers and motherhood and holding these women up to be revered for what they do, they create life after all.
[01:41:38]  I mean, without moms, you couldn't have the baby.
[01:41:40]  Yes, you need to.
[01:41:41]  But at the end of the day, I dare say most men don't want to carry a baby to term.
[01:41:45]  So God bless her.
[01:41:47]  That was awesome.
[01:41:48]  I know, you know, it's really cool.
[01:41:50]  Ann, because, you know, the world's full of so much negativity.
[01:41:53]  But most importantly, there's like this war going on right now on young girls.
[01:41:58]  And, you know, when I graduated high school, it was, well, what college are you going to?
[01:42:03]  And then, when you finish, because they pressure you to go into college, when you finish college, and you have an abundance of student loan debt, so you're trying to figure out how you're going to pay that off.
[01:42:11]  And then, you know, it's not just this is what's going on with everyone.
[01:42:14]  I mean, all my friends in high school were in our 30s now, and you know, they're either starting to have kids now or they're trying to figure it out.
[01:42:22]  I mean, this is what's gone on.
[01:42:24]  They've completely sucked us all into a system.
[01:42:26]  And so many women don't come out and praise motherhood openly.
[01:42:29]  They actually, most of the time, treat it like it's a burden.
[01:42:31]  I see the social media videos of these girls who are in their 40s and they're like, no kids.
[01:42:36]  I could go to brunch on Sundays.
[01:42:38]  And there's nothing that breaks my heart more than that.
[01:42:40]  I actually think it's a quite depressing life.
[01:42:43]  And for myself personally, at least I should say, the fact that, and again, I'm in my 30s and I have no children.
[01:42:49]  So I'm a part of the problem too.
[01:42:51]  But I at least know and acknowledge just that.
[01:42:53]  You know, there's nothing greater than being able to have your children to start a family in this country.
[01:42:58]  And unfortunately, so many have demonized it.
[01:43:01]  And it's happening to women.
[01:43:02]  Obviously, women are turned off by the idea because they believe, oh, my body's going to change and blah, blah, blah.
[01:43:08]  And men, obviously, they want no part in it either anymore.
[01:43:12]  It feels it seems like, because again, feminism has completely destroyed women and their brain and it's just absolute rot.
[01:43:18]  So it's just refreshing to hear a woman speaking openly about being a mother and how excited she is to be a mother and have more babies with her husband.
[01:43:28]  I mean, we don't hear about it enough, and so that was a good clip, a feel-good clip.
[01:43:32]  And it's an honor, of course, to play just that.
[01:43:34]  Ann Vandersteel, thank you for joining us as you always do.
[01:43:36]  Folks, if you don't follow Ann on X, I don't know why you don't, she puts out great information.

=== Treasonous War Attack Claims (05:15) ===

[01:43:41]  So I highly recommend you go give her a look.
[01:43:43]  And Vanderstiel is where you could find her honor.
[01:43:45]  Anna, Anne, thanks for jumping on.
[01:43:46]  Thank you.
[01:43:47]  It's been a pleasure to do this with you.
[01:43:49]  And I know it's your last week.
[01:43:50]  God bless you for the work you do.
[01:43:51]  You're incredible.
[01:43:51]  Thank you.
[01:43:53]  Thank you.
[01:43:53]  And I look forward to seeing you in Florida very, very soon.
[01:43:56]  I'm going to be taking a little vacation and visiting my girl Ann.
[01:43:58]  So we look forward to that.
[01:44:00]  All right.
[01:44:00]  All right, folks, got a lot going on over here.
[01:44:02]  Don't go anywhere.
[01:44:03]  Discuss in a second.
[01:44:15]  I'll talk about what we've done today.
[01:44:17]  A lot happening over here.
[01:44:18]  As you guys saw, we got breaking news regarding Joe Kent stepping away from his position.
[01:44:23]  I'm watching the reaction on social media, and I have to say, people are an absolute disgrace.
[01:44:27]  So many people are attacking Joe Kent as if this man isn't a patriot.
[01:44:31]  You know, you don't have to be a loyalist to President Trump all the time in the sense that you're just going to go out there and praise his ego and go out there and just say what a great job he's doing.
[01:44:40]  If you truly love the president and you truly want his legacy to thrive, you'd actually present information that's factually true.
[01:44:47]  You'd actually push back and speak truth to power.
[01:44:50]  And you'd call out the people around him who are actually creating a bubble where he has no one else to speak to besides the echo chamber they've created for him.
[01:44:57]  So hear me out, folks.
[01:44:59]  Anyone who's attacking Joe Kent and trying to go after his character, I'm done with these people.
[01:45:03]  I am so done.
[01:45:04]  I'm reading through the letter and it's very well written and it's actually quite shocking what Joe Kent is openly saying.
[01:45:09]  And let me just go over it again since we've got some time here.
[01:45:12]  Joe Kent had the gohoness to go out and resign from his position, the director of National Counterterrorism Center, because, well, he's done.
[01:45:20]  This is effective today.
[01:45:22]  This according to him, I cannot, in good conscience, support an ongoing war in Iran because Iran posed no intimate threat.
[01:45:29]  That's what they've been telling us.
[01:45:30]  They've been telling us for so long.
[01:45:31]  And again, I haven't had a strong take on this because I wanted to see evidence myself.
[01:45:35]  You know, I can't, I can't see through what the president is seeing.
[01:45:38]  Obviously, this classified information, those at the Pentagon who I asked in private, would consistently say, Brianna, we can't tell you these things because it's classified.
[01:45:45]  And so I've tried to have a certain amount of respect for that, thinking that there possibly is something that's happening behind closed doors.
[01:45:53]  But Joe Kent's resignation letter tells me that there's nothing happening behind closed doors that justifies the moves we made.
[01:46:00]  Why do I trust Joe Kent?
[01:46:01]  This is a man who served, as he states in his letter.
[01:46:04]  He's already gone to war for us 11 times.
[01:46:08]  He's been deployed 11 times.
[01:46:10]  He lost his wife to these wars.
[01:46:13]  And he refers to it as a war manufactured by Israel.
[01:46:17]  He lost his wife.
[01:46:20]  So before all you scumbags go out there and attack his character, go out there and attack him as a man and try to say that there's something wrong with him, that he somehow is an evil person.
[01:46:30]  He is not an evil person.
[01:46:33]  He was privy to the information that was put in front of him, classified information.
[01:46:37]  He is telling the American people he has seen nothing that justifies the action we've taken in Iran.
[01:46:44]  And again, if you're a clear, level-headed person and you see this, you don't attack a man who has gone to war for us 11 times and pretend like he is somehow, some way, a treasonous person, a treasonous patriot.
[01:46:58]  Or I guess it wouldn't be a patriot.
[01:46:59]  That'd be a contradiction.
[01:47:00]  But the reality of it is, is this is a man who's lost everything.
[01:47:02]  He lost his wife.
[01:47:05]  How dare you, for those of you attacking Joe Kent right now, how dare you?
[01:47:10]  His wife, Shannon, died for this country.
[01:47:13]  He has paid the ultimate sacrifice by losing his wife.
[01:47:17]  He's gone to war 11 times for this country.
[01:47:20]  How dare you attack this man?
[01:47:23]  Again, he strongly believes that the information put in front of the president is being manufactured.
[01:47:28]  And we've heard the president say that his information regarding the intimate threat came from Jared Kushner, Steve Woodcoff, and others.
[01:47:36]  He's not citing, when he said that comment, I told you to listen carefully.
[01:47:39]  He's not citing the Secretary of War, Pete Hegseth.
[01:47:42]  He's not citing Telsey Gabbard, who's running, obviously, national intelligence.
[01:47:46]  He's citing people who are literally people that we, in my opinion, I believe, are working on behalf more of Israel than the American people.
[01:47:54]  I mean, Jared, Jared is somebody who told us, we were told that he wasn't going to be on the campaign trail, that he didn't want anything to do with politics.
[01:48:02]  And yet here he is.
[01:48:03]  He pretends to be someone advocating for peace.
[01:48:05]  But the reality is he's asking for donors to help rebuild Gaza.
[01:48:09]  And then shortly after that, now we're nuking Iran.
[01:48:12]  And we're told that Iran's going to be a new country very soon.
[01:48:15]  I mean, folks, when you look at all the information that's not being put out there, obviously, by the big networks, you've got to sit back and just go, okay, what are we doing here?
[01:48:24]  You know, my generation has been the generation that's had to endure multiple Middle Eastern wars pretty much our entire lifetime.
[01:48:31]  And so when we sit back and we watch another one pop off, you got to wonder, what are we doing here?
[01:48:36]  What's going on?
[01:48:38]  Because we've heard these threats before, that the threat is intimate.
[01:48:41]  Obviously, weapons of mass destruction was used during my childhood.
[01:48:44]  And you get backflashes, right?
[01:48:46]  You go, maybe we should wait a little bit.
[01:48:49]  We shouldn't jump the gun on this.
[01:48:50]  Because we're the generation that's going to pay the ultimate sacrifice for this country.
[01:48:53]  So our opinions do matter.
[01:48:55]  Folks, more to come in just a moment.
[01:48:56]  Don't go anywhere.
