Dr. Corsi, and today it is Wednesday, August 20th, 2025.
Thanks for joining us on Corsi Nation.com.

As we get into today, a couple of things I think are developing that are very interesting.
Number one is...
Now it looks like if we're deploying warships near Venezuela, it's initially saying to combat the drug threats that we're not going to allow Venezuela to ship drugs into the United States.
I think there's much more to it than this.
The plan when Donald Trump was being tried in New York, I believe in the Smokey Daniels trial, whatever that was, you know, the that he was convicted, the idea was they were going to convict Donald Trump and send him to prison.
And then one of the backstories that was being circulated was that the Venezuelan gangs would kill him in prison.
Now, if this is Donald Trump believes this, if this is really part of the intelligence here, then Donald Trump is possibly preparing to invade Venezuela and end this Maduro regime, which has been a very hostile regime to the United States.
So take a look at the stories out today.
You can see that Maduro is anticipating this.
And, you know, the whole idea of where this is going, I think is pretty clearly indicated that if US troops are sending, if we send troops to Venezuela, and Venezuela is certainly mobilizing its militia, saying that the United States has deployed military forces to its waters.
That's being reported by, I guess that's on CNN, that Maduro announced on Monday the deployment of 4.5 million militiamen throughout the country, assuring that no empire will touch the sacred soil of Venezuela after the United States doubled the reward for information leading to his arrest and increased the number of troops sailing around Latin America and the Caribbean.
So last week, the U.S. government confirmed to CNN that it ordered naval movements in the region to contain the threat for the drug trafficking groups.
On Monday, Reuters reported three Navy destroyers and some 4,000 military personnel would arrive at the edge of Venezuela's territorial waters within the next 36 hours.
This is all being reported on CNN.
On Tuesday, however, the United States Department of Defense officials said there are currently no U.S. ships in the area, and nor have the ships received orders to head there.
Okay, Venezuela's almost got 2,500 miles of coastline.
It's right at the, you know, of course, on the northern part of South America.
And I think that this is something to watch.
I'm not sure yet entirely what the situation is going to be.
AP said the U.S. destroyers head toward the waters off Venezuela as Trump aims to pressure the drug cartels.
Well, something's certainly going to go on here because these reports, I think, have to have some substance to them one way or the other.
And what we're seeing is that Trump has also been pressuring Mexican president Claudia Scheinbaum to cooperate more.
more on security than her predecessor, specifically being more aggressive in pursuit of Mexico's cartels.
Okay, but she's drawn a line when it comes to Mexico's sovereignty, rejecting suggestions by Trump and others that you could have an intervention of the U.S. military.
Well, I'm pretty sure that Trump is going to ramp up not only the war on drugs, which he's intending to do, clearly closing the border.
But also I think he's going to start focusing on Venezuela and making sure that we don't have the expansion of this kind of rigid regime, totalitarism throughout South America.
I think Donald Trump has to start paying much more attention to Central America and South America.
We're now getting the border secured and that's a big step.
By the way, they painted the border black, I believe, this wall black, which makes it too hot to climb the border wall.
And so the Democrats are kind of losing their mind over it.
Chris, why don't you come on?
Let's do a couple of comments here.
So I want to make a point that Donald Trump is serious about border security.
And regardless of what the Democrats think, he is going to use ICE to round up the illegal immigrants in the country.
Donald Trump is very, very determined to, I think, get us back to a country that is not paying for legal immigrants while the middle class of the United States is starving.
What you saw over the last four years was an attempt to virtually bankrupt the US in one way or another.
Again, leftist rule in most countries or all countries around the world is can only run by force through military or through manipulation.
This time in this country, since you can't technically use force because force will be used back in many cases, you're going to see manipulation.
Part of that is currency manipulation, which they've done.
They print a lot of money.
So instead of saying we're raising your taxes, might as well tax you up and bankrupt people or put the burden on people a little more via inflation.
Print more money just to pay for things around the world.
Launder money around the world.
We learned that about Act Blue.
And of course, the illegal aliens were another thing.
It was pretty easy to say, stay in Mexico.
We can bring in whatever the new quota was that Obama put forth.
Remember Obama raised the quota for illegal aliens or sorry, for immigrants to come in here, the limit from I guess five digits to six digits, kicking that can down the road to see, let Trump or Hillary deal with it in 2017 having said that.
But the Biden administration just let everyone in because they knew somebody had to pay for it soon.
If you want to create a permanent underclass, then just tax the amount of existence, inflate the amount of existence and find a way to, well, let's just say, to spread the money around to people who will cost, will become more of a burden.
Well, and now let's go, let's switch a little bit to I agree with you.
I think the Democrats have been trying to bankrupt the country for some time.
That's the whole Coward Pivot theory, and they're good at it, but I don't think it's going to succeed.
I think finally Donald Trump is going to get hold see some fundamental changes coming down.
But again, the Democrats have been on this campaign since the 1960s, and it's not going to end quickly or right away.
Their hatred of America is apparent.
Oh, excuse me.
But one way or the other, this resolution is in the process.
Let's switch gears and talk about the Zelensky meeting.
Donald Trump, I think, did a very good job of getting Zelensky in and getting the international, getting the leaders from Europe, which I was not in favor of initially.
I thought this was going to be more of a, you know, of Zelenskyy inviting them and Trump really handled it very well.
He let them talk.
And basically, I think in some form there's already an agreement between Putin and Trump that there will be some concessions of territory on behalf of Russia.
I think perhaps Russia will not want to keep all of the Ukrainian speaking land that he's gained, especially that near and approaching Kiev.
But at the same time, I think what's going to happen is that the two provinces that are Russian speaking will go to Russia.
They're not going to go back to Ukraine and we will have Crimea also go to Russia.
Then there'll be some form of a guarantee or of a statement by the European nations and the United States that the sovereignty of Ukraine is to be respected and the invasion is to stop.
Chris, your thoughts on that?
I agree, sir, on all counts.
And the idea is you're going to see the left fight this and say, well, that means Russia won the war and Trump let him do it.
Well, that's what's going to happen.
Russia, unfortunately, has won this war.
You're seeing Ukraine trying to bring in elderly people and people who are.
mentally, let's just say, not all there or maybe mentally, let's just say, you know where I'm going.
People who aren't really going to be soldiers under normal circumstances, putting them on the front lines.
It's desperation at this point.
And more people are going to be killed if this moves forward.
Money is going to be thrown around.
It's bad.
I want to ask you something.
Did you notice something missing from the talks on Monday?
I noticed something missing.
Someone was missing on Monday when it came to the conglomerate of Western leaders who are involved in NATO and want to try to stop the Russia-Ukraine war or at least want to be involved in one way or another.
Carney wasn't there.
Canada was not invited to this thing by Zelenskyy or Trump.
That, that, for me is significant.
Say that again.
Carney was not invited, the Prime Minister of Canada.
Canada was not invited to these talks.
Well, Canada, this was more European.
I get that, but Canada generally has had a say in what or has been involved in these talks for a long time, has been involved in discussions with Ukraine for a long time.
Not this time though.
I just found it interesting.
They're trying to be involved.
I'm not sure that they, what they add, but they're trying to be involved.
There you go.
You know, that's that's that.
Okay.
If we take a look here at what's going on, though, I think Trump is ending the war.
I think the war in Gaza looks to me like now the plans are being developed that the Israelis are taking more control over the West Bank, and I doubt if the Palestinians will come back to Gaza.
I think that the Palestinian two-state solution is dead, which is a good thing because the Palestinian two-state solution was never a solution.
It was just an interim step to move closer to destroying Israel.
And that's how Hamas and Iran looked at it.
So I think, Chris, we've seen around the world that Trump is really doing an enormously good job as a peacemaker.
And that's where the Venezuela situation is very interesting because I think it may have a little bit of a revenge element to it with Trump having been threatened by Venezuela to, you know, certainly the Venezuelan gangs in this country have to be gotten rid of.
And Venezuela certainly has not been a friend of the United States.
Well, you bring up the peacemaker thing.
Look what happened beyond the headlines, the not so sexy news that came about.
He was settling Albania.
Sorry, he was settling a Caspian Sea dispute.
Was it Albania?
Or was it Armenia and I forgot, Armenia and Alberzai.
And of course, you have the Congo and what was going on over there.
This is significant because a lot of other leaders in the past wouldn't bother with these regions because there was no real interest, no financial interest.
But Trump's done a very good job at this and the Abraham Accords are alive again.
So this is important.
Well, there are fundamental changes moving here.
It's going to take a little time for the Ukrainian war to be settled.
But I think it's in the process now of being settled.
I don't think it's going to get heated up again.
I think it's going to move towards a resolution.
The economic situation continues, I think, to be very troubling, especially with regards to Europe.
And Europe is trying to make a new commitment to Ukraine of a billion dollars or $100 billion or whatever they're trying to do, but they don't have it, really.
This is going to be deficit spending.
And I think we're seeing that the – And I think the people are tired of the bureaucracy and tired of the bloated structure that the European Union has imposing control on the various nation states.
I thought the EU, I thought it was a doomed idea from the very beginning.
I still think it's a doomed idea.
But again, these things die hard and they're not going to go easily.
So Europe, I think, is going to suffer a major economic downturn.
I continue to remind everybody, gold and silver.
They're trading gold is still $3,352 an ounce today.
Silver $37.61 an ounce.
If you like the show, please do contact Swiss America.
Our sponsors are at the top of the page.
You can see them right there.
Chris will show you.
And I'm really insisting you take a look at this Walking Liberty half dollar offer from Swiss America.
You get 250 of these coins as a first time offer for being a new customer.
And getting some silver is probably more affordable for more Americans right now than getting gold.
You get silver for under $40 an ounce.
And silver is going to appreciate.
I'm saying that gold is going to be at probably $4,000 an ounce by year end.
And silver could be as well over $40 an ounce.
So you've got some substantial appreciation and might as well hold some assets that have a chance to appreciate when your asset portfolio largely in mutual funds in the stock market are going to be at risk of depreciation.

I'm going to cover a story on the World Economic Forum.
Now, I just announced yesterday that Al Schwab, who is the founder and longtime head of the World Economic Forum, stepped out as chairman and member of the Board of Trustees.
He's, I think, 88 years old now, but the issue is he had been accused of really pressuring his subordinates to go to their ATMs and get him cash so he could get massages in his room.
And those massages were probably sexual massages.
At any rate, the scandal did prompt him to resign and he's still a force though and he's now appointed Larry Fink head of BlackRock to be one of the co-chairs well that again shows that the you know the deep state roots in the world economic forum and between the world economic forum and communist China you still have major forces that are opposing the United States and are actually trying to destroy
the country I'm going to comment on that just one minute I want to get to Act Blue and talk about what we're doing in Act Blue.
But first, I want to mention that yesterday I was at the Blue Ridge Mountains and we announced that we're going to create this Blue Ridge Medical Institute for innovations in medicine.
And we're looking at innovations that have fact-based results to them as ways that we can incorporate these into the make America healthy again agenda of Donald Trump and Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
We're trying to go and see Robert Kennedy Jr. with some innovations we've got on the medical software for running a medical clinic or a medical clinic or medical practice and integrated with some very, very interesting robotics that I think will be innovative and be able to reach medicine into places with telemedicine that are now remote and do not get adequate medical care.
So that institute is extremely important.
I'm going to be working to create it over the next weeks and months and hopefully years.
We have the funding to get it going.
You can see right there the Blue Ridge Mountain.
It's a beautiful resort.
Chris is showing it to you.
It's in the Blue Ridge Mountain range, very isolated, but a perfect place to have a health clinic resort.
And it's just the beginning of the Appalachian Trail in northwestern Georgia.
There's a view of the porch.
It's a great porch for sitting out on the evenings.
It's a magnificent property.
And we're hoping to acquire it and put the medical institute there.
It has animals on it.
You can see chickens and goats.
It's a beautiful place.
And it's a perfect place to have the kind of institute we want to create.
Okay, now I'm writing stories on Act Blue.
And I published the first story on American Thinker, and I'm going to try to get some more published in American Thinker right now.
What this article shows, it traces a property that was owned by this woman who was the head of Act Blue, ACTBLUE.
You know, You act red if you're Republican, you act blue if you're Democrat.
It was this funnel into which they said, just put all your money in here.
We'll get it to the right campaigns.
Okay, but the problem was that it ended up being a money laundering scheme.
So they had these what we call magic mortgages.
So as we covered, this Regina Wallace Jones, who was 48 years old in 2023 when she became the CEO of Act Blue, she bought a house in Palo Alto, California and got over $50 million.
The house was valued at under $1 million when she bought it.
She got $50 million in mortgage loans out of it.
Now, I caught HSBC money laundering in 2011.
And what they were doing is they were working with the drug cartels and they were taking people's bank accounts who had left the bank, their social security number, and creating an account for that person and running millions of dollars through it and then zeroing out the account.
Okay, so what this did was it took illegal money from the border, put it into the bank.
You have got to have a bank to do any kind of a drug business because you can't be driving around a semi-truck full of hundred dollars bills to buy your tacos at lunch.
You've got to get the money into the banking system.
And these were a series of fraudulent loans that were made simply to get illegal money out of the bank to Act Blue so it could support Act Blue with racist clients, Democratic clients that Act Blue wanted to support or sister NGOs, non-governmental organizations like Andy Farr or Black Lives Matter.
And it was a very effective criminal scheme because what it means is that the Democrats were creating and benefiting from child sex labor at the border.
We expose this.
I think it's going to be one of the major scandals in American history.
Chris, you want to come on and comment about it?
Well, again, this doesn't surprise me.
They found ways.
This is probably one of the reasons why they were so afraid of Donald Trump getting elected because I've always said he knows their secrets.
He's been donating money to these people.
He's been sober at parties with these people.
He knows what he knows a lot about where the money is going.
I'm sure he was even surprised by some of this.
But they, if you see the entire Democrat machine going as hard on one man as they ever have, this is the reason because a lot of these things were going to be exposed under his wash.
And what are they going to do?
I mean, what are they going to do to this guy?
Are they going to threaten to kill him again?
Are they going to threaten to bankrupt him again?
Are they going to throw the book at him again?
He's in hand against Donald Trump and he continues to persist.
He is resilient beyond belief.
Right.
So every Democrat that says he's going to destroy democracy basically basically really means he's going to expose the Democrats.
That's right.
All right.
Well, I've got to wrap it up today.
I've been traveling and we'll continue with it tomorrow.
I think we'll be back.
But tomorrow I want to run one of the Mike McCormick shows and show again how this Act Blue is really deeply ingrained within the corruption of the Democratic Party.
