Time Text
This is Jim Fetzer, Madison, Wisconsin.
Delighted to be joined today by Owen Stevens, now in Rochester, New York, and Brian Davidson from Houston, Texas.
We're here to bring you all the news you need to know.
Quite a lot going on.
Zelensky claims Ukraine and the West can make Russia's defeat irreversible this year.
Talk about a delusion.
Ukrainian President Zelensky said Kiev and its Western supporters could make Russian defeat in the war in Ukraine irreversible as early as this year, and thank Germany for being a true friend.
He secured a large military boost on a visit with the German government, announcing a $2.7 billion, $3 billion U.S.
military aid package, its biggest since Russia's incursion in February last.
Now it's time for us to determine the end of the war already this year.
We can make the aggressors defeat irreversible already this year, he claimed in a press conference with Chancellor Schultz, who meanwhile underscored Germany's pledge to continue to support Ukraine for as long as necessary, brushing aside questions about earlier tensions in bilateral relations and whether He should hope to join NATO.
Germany, Europe's largest economy, faced criticism for its hesitant response to what has become one of Ukraine's biggest providers of financial and military assistance.
Ukraine, we are told, is expected to launch major counter-offensive operations in the coming weeks, which I regard as highly unlikely.
In his first visit to Germany, Since the incursion began, Zelensky said Kyiv was prepared to discuss outside peace initiatives, but those proposals should be based on Ukraine's position and its peace plan, which would require Russia to relinquish all the territory it's fought so hard to secure.
Ain't gonna happen.
Kiev has ruled out any territorial concessions, and it wants every inch of its land back.
Russia annexed Crimea in 2014 in accordance with international law, by the way.
And yes, last year it claimed to have annexed four other Ukrainian regions, which Roscow now calls Russian land.
Zelensky met Saturday also with the Italian Prime Minister, Giorgio Maloney, and Pope Francis.
He's seeking his sharp support.
Zelensky left open a prospect of a risk.
The counter-effect is not very successful.
There'll be less support, but I don't think this is the general view.
Our country is thinking about it.
I don't think they've been very strong in support for Ukraine throughout this period.
He visited Germany for the Munich Security Council in February last year, just before the war broke out.
Germany was constraining its support, both by its energy dependent on Russia and the pacifism from its bloody 20th century history.
Increasing its support required a major policy upheaval and a shift in mind that Shultz dubbed as Zeitun Wen, or Turn of Era, in a landmark speech.
Zelensky flew to Berlin on a German government plane escorted by fighter jet of the Luftwaffe Air Force.
He is expected to travel to other locations to receive the prestigious Charlemagne Prize in honor of services to Europe.
What a disgrace.
The Ukrainian people are fighting not only for their country, but for Europe and European values, a prize committee said, which is just a grotesque distortion of the facts of the matter.
Owen, your thoughts?
Yeah, what I'm seeing a lot is, you know, this objectivity in journalism comes to my mind and the lies that we get about Ukraine.
One of the things that I was thinking about this week, and I wanted to really look into this, look into this illusion of choice that I think we have.
There's this illusion that we have a lot of things to choose from.
There's a lot of entertainment avenues that we can choose to watch and listen to.
But one of the really interesting things is that that's not the case at all.
Every, every, every single, you know, Fox, CNN, every single news site that we listen to that we get information or that, not us, but people get information from, they're owned by six corporations.
Those six corporations are Comcast, I believe it's Comcast, Disney, CBS, Viacom, News Corporation, and AT&T.
They control everything.
They control 90% of the media.
Fox, everything is owned.
And so when I see this narrative coming from Fox, whether it's coming from CNN, it's clear that there are a group of very elite executives that are deciding the narrative.
They decide the agenda and who knows who's telling them what to decide?
Who knows who's telling them what to say?
You know, this is one of the things that I think everybody should look into, which is the mainstream media and who actually owns it and why we're not going to get any objectivity in journalism anymore.
That's dead and that's gone.
There are some objective journalists, but they're certainly not a part of organizations like Fox or CNN or any other news site.
Breitbart even is owned by these large corporations.
There's a lot of conservative news sites that I used to listen to and get my information from that I realized are owned by the exact people that own CNN, the exact people that own all of the The mass media and the mainstream media.
And so that's one of the things that I think is really interesting to look into and why I'm not surprised at all to see lies, just blatant lies, because it's not about the truth.
It's not about being objective.
It's just about the narrative.
It's about the narrative that these executives are driving from these six corporations.
And who knows who's giving them their directives?
And to make matters worse, Reuters and the AP, the source of 95% of the news published in the newspapers, especially all foreign developments, are both owned by the Rothschild.
Brian.
In addition, the organizations that support and train the journalists on how to do research literally use what we would consider to be a straight up clean false flag as evidence for how to do actual journalism.
It's terrible what they're doing in terms of brain warping all of these so-called journalists that work for these mainstream media people.
At the end of the day, I'm not supposed to say that anymore, They say what they're told to say, and there is some liberty in the way they write up the story, but at the end of the day, it's going to be pro this or con this or this or that.
I can go read R.T.
And get a look at what Russia's saying.
I can go read CNN and get a look at what America's saying.
Polar opposites.
Polar opposites.
Now, in this particular case, we've got a story about Germany providing $3 billion of aid to Kiev or to Ukraine to shore up its military.
But what's not there?
Number one, you have to spend the money in Germany Largely, buy your munitions from our factories.
Number two, you're not going to get any jets.
And at this point in time, there's only one thing that Ukraine needs, and it's the Phalanx system with the air support system, that Gatling gun machine that's just crazy.
You can go watch some YouTube videos on it.
It'll shoot down jets and missiles and all this stuff.
What I'm seeing with the video that I've been looking up Makes me wonder what's going on altogether, because I know what U.S.
military aid is capable of, and it does not look to me like Ukraine has anything compared to what we have in the Phalanx system.
Of course, all the video is foggy and shot at a distance and inconclusive, and it's very difficult to get to the bottom of what's really happening, but Every time you hear about a missile battery getting blown up, which is what RT's running today, oh, we blew up a missile battery, and so here's the proof, or here's the evidence.
It looks just like that drone strike on the Kremlin last week, which had a couple of slow-moving bottle rockets moving in on the dome, and boom, there's a little light.
That's all you get.
And why are you gonna take out Putin by hitting the dome of the Kremlin?
I mean, That's an assassination attempt?
It's ridiculous.
Anyway, this whole thing to me has become so foggy.
I like to listen to McGregor.
He seems to be the guy that's got the most information about what's going on.
He seems very honest and transparent about delivering the information.
And he says that this thing is about as ugly as it can get because Ukraine doesn't have any more air support.
What's true?
I don't know, except There's a whole lot of money exchanging hands in this game.
Excellent.
Excellent.
Both.
Meanwhile, the biggest news is domestic.
A Durham report has been released.
The FBI should never have begun the Russia collusion investigation.
A lot of us believed this for a very long time.
Now it has been substantiated in spades.
The long-awaited report by Special Counsel John Durham, tasked to look into the FBI's investigation of the Trump campaign for Russian collusion, was released yesterday, concluding the FBI should have never launched an investigation into the campaign.
Durham's 300-page report found a damning conclusion.
Based on the revealed crossfire hurricane and related intel activities, we conclude the Department and FBI failed to uphold their important mission of strict fidelity to the law in connection with certain events and activities described in this report.
Our investigation also revealed senior FBI personnel displayed a serious lack of analytical rigor toward the information they received, especially information from politically affiliated persons and entities, in apparent reference to the Hillary Clinton campaign-funded Fusion GPSP dossier, alleging collusion the FBI relied upon to investigate Trump.
Durham said before the allegation from an Australian diplomat that then-Trump campaign adviser George Papadopoulos told him the Trump campaign had dirt on Hillary.
There was no evidence of any Trump collusion with Russia.
But despite the unevaluated intelligence information, the FBI swiftly opened an investigation known as Crossfire Hurricane, Durham wrote.
In particular, at the direction of Deputy Director Andrew McCabe, Deputy Assistant Director for Counterintelligence Peter Stroke opened Crossfire Hurricane immediately.
Stroke, at a minimum, had pronounced hostile feeling toward Trump.
The matter was opened as a full investigation without having even spoken to the person who provided the information.
Durham said Justice and the FBI acted without appropriate objectivity or restraint in pursuing allegation of collusion or conspiracy between a U.S.
political campaign and a foreign power.
He said the FBI used a different standard when it looked at Hillary's campaign.
The speed and manner in which the FBI opened and investigated the Crossfire Hurricane, based on raw, unanalyzed, and uncorroborated intelligence, reflected a noticeable departure from how it had approached prior matters involving possible attempted election interference by the Hillary campaign.
The report said the FBI received highly significant intelligence from a trusted foreign source that the Hillary campaign had planned to vilify Trump by tying him to Vladimir Putin so as to divert attention from her own concerns related to her use of a private email server.
Unlike the FBI's opening of a full investigation of unknown members of the Trump campaign based on wrong and corroborated information, The FBI never opened any type of inquiry, issued any tasking, employed any analytical personnel, produced any analytical products in support with the information related to Hillary's campaign.
There was a predisposition to open an investigation into Trump.
He slammed the integrity of the FBI.
The promulgation of additional rules and regulations to be learned in yet more trained session would likely prove to be a fruitless exercise if the FBI's guiding principles of fidelity, bravery, and integrity are not ingrained in the hearts and minds of those sworn to meet the FBI's mission of protecting the American people and upholding the Constitution of the United States.
The report comes as Trump is running for re-election as president.
He and his admin face constant scrutiny under then-Special Counsel Robert Mueller.
The allegation of collusion in an ongoing investigation sidelined some admin officials, such as then-Attorney General Jeff Sessions.
Establishment media outlet also hyped the allegations, putting the Trump admin under non-stop scrutiny.
Democrat members of Congress, such as Adam Schiff and Eric Solwell, repeatedly claimed there was evidence of collusion but failed to produce any.
Earlier, House Speaker McCarthy kicked both off the House Intel Committee due to their repeated unfound accusations of collusion, as well as an alleged sexual relationship with a Chinese spy in Solwell's case.
Jim Jordan tweeted, we reached out to the Justice Department to have Special Counsel John Durham testify next week.
Meanwhile, even Jake Trapper has had to admit this is very bad for the FBI.
Regardless.
I don't know why I'm not getting the sound.
Hmm.
Oh, and go ahead, give us your thoughts.
Jake Tapper, surprisingly, because he's CNN, which is so frequently slammed, Trump was admitting this was a disgrace for the FBI.
Your thoughts.
Yeah, I mean, the first thing that really, back to what I said about the media, this is something that I was thinking of immediately, which was, There's a movie called The Recruit that my dad and me watched when I was a kid.
It's an Al Pacino movie about the CIA.
And it paints the CIA, the FBI, these undercover agents protecting America in a really, really positive light.
Then I look into James Bond.
It paints these agents that work for the government in an incredibly positive light.
Everything that we get from the media paints the FBI, the CIA, in this positive light, like they're defending freedom.
They're defending us from the bad guys.
And that's done purposefully.
The way that they portray themselves in Hollywood is purposeful.
The CIA, the FBI, they've infiltrated Hollywood.
They've infiltrated the media and the way that we portray the CIA and the FBI follows their agenda.
And so it's so interesting because I went my whole life thinking that the FBI were the good guys.
I thought, oh, they're the guys that are there to protect us.
They're the guys that are there to help us.
But that's just the lie.
They're not.
You know, we saw this firsthand and I think Trump and what happened with him was a very, very good thing because it ended up exposing how devious these people are and that they're after you.
They're not actually just after Donald Trump.
They're after you.
They're after your beliefs, your values.
They don't like you.
That's one of the things that I think the Trump administration was able to portray.
And the fact that a person like Hillary Clinton, okay, who has ties to Jeffrey Epstein, child trafficking, pedophilia, the fact that this evil, evil woman, okay, receives no scrutiny whatsoever, but Donald Trump receives every single ounce of scrutiny, shows the American people the simple truth, which is that the FBI was never for them.
It was always against them.
Yeah, the politicalization of the FBI is shocking.
In relation to your observation about journalism, here's how the Wisconsin State Journal covered it.
This is on the inside of page two, a very obscure location.
Get the title.
Justice Department.
Report details missteps in Trump's probe.
Doesn't even mention Durham.
Doesn't talk about how much he's slammed the FBI, how it violated its oath of office and its mission.
That's the way the media is covering up and continues to this day.
Brian.
Quoting Cash Patel on Truth Social, Donald J. Trump, innocent, FBI guilty, DOJ guilty, IC guilty, Comey guilty, McCabe guilty, Strzok guilty, Lisa Page, FISA judges guilty, Rosenstein guilty, Chris Wray, Gina Haspel, Sally Yates, Lisa Monaco, John Carlin, Michael Sussman, Christopher Steele, Stefan Halper, Fusion Michael Sussman, Christopher Steele, Stefan Halper, Fusion GPS, Mark Elias, Clinton, Bruce Orr, Nellie Orr, all guilty.
The American people completely robbed of justice.
But does it surprise anyone?
Again, we haven't had a perp walk in so long.
Do you think that this report was some sort of misdirection, or do you think that this report was about getting to the bottom of it and restoring the good name of the FBI?
They don't care!
Just like the CIA doesn't care anymore.
The CIA knows that they hold Washington, D.C.
politicians by the balls, and all they gotta do is squeeze a little harder every time.
And the FBI is the arm that's squeezing every day on all of this.
Remember back in 2017 when WikiLeaks dropped their Vault 7?
I think that was February of 2017, and they warned the government, hey, if you don't release it, We're going to release it because we have it.
And then the next morning when they didn't meet the deadline, they released the key.
And the key was taken from John F. Kennedy's quote, I wish I could splinter the CIA into a thousand pieces and scatter it to the winds.
Well, Vault 7 was the most important data leak in history that showed how corrupt and rotten the United States government, the CIA, is.
And it sounds like the FBI is just stepping into line with them.
They said CIA, or they, Vault 7 showed that CIA can hijack virtually any smartphone, television, or computer, can hijack smartphones and intercept Wi-Fi traffic, can remotely control cars and airplanes and assassination tools.
This was in 2017.
Can leave fingerprints of foreign nationals on hack attempts.
Has a department dedicated to psychological warfare against the United States citizens?
And isn't that something that we're dedicated to here?
And then has the U.S.
Embassy in Frankfurt as a spying hacking headquarters of Europe.
Vault 7 showed everything you need to know about the criminals.
Was there a single perp walk?
Was there wind of a single person losing their job?
Did anything change anywhere?
Don't get your hopes up.
The Durham Report is a misdirection machine because the economy is going down.
They're going to steal another election.
It's going to get uglier and uglier and uglier every day from here on out.
We just need to be prepared.
I wish I could find something to fault in your critique, Brian, but I think you got it exactly right.
Meanwhile, Ron DeSantis, Florida governor, declares the GOP must reject the culture of losing, no more excuses, raising in my mind the question, does he understand the extent to which Dominion voting machines, the mules, and drop boxes have been used to steal these elections?
I think the hope is both Florida and Iowa show how strong leadership and a bold agenda can defeat the left in this country.
But there's no substitute for victory.
DeSantis told a Sioux City, Iowa fundraiser speech that aired live on Newsmax.
We must reject the culture of losing that's infected our party in recent years.
The time for excuses is over.
We've got to demonstrate the courage to lead or the strength to win.
I'm troubled by this.
He's in Iowa.
It's clear he wants to run.
He's already been outpolled by Trump massively.
I don't think he has much of a chance.
The Santa's crowd was small but passionate.
He delivered a speech that sounded like a 2024 campaign rally.
Took some shots at Trump without mentioning him by name.
If we make 2024 a referendum on Joe Biden and his failures, if we provide a positive alternative for the future of this country, Republicans will win across the board.
If we do not do that, if we get distracted, if we focus the election on the past or on other side issues, either the Democrats are going to beat us again.
I think it will be very difficult to recover from that defeat.
Failing to acknowledge that we whipped them in 2020 and whipped them again in 2022, but the election was rigged.
The numbers were fixed.
I got into politics, as Santus continues, running for Congress in 2012, because I was motivated to oppose the policies of Barack Obama.
Adding that his first book, Dreams from Our Founding Fathers, First Principles in the Age of Obama, was unpopular.
Had I ever written at that time a book which about a dozen people read that outlined my concerns and why I didn't think his agenda was consistent with the aspiration of our founding fathers, I'd believe that then and I believe it now.
He said he first ran for Congress to stop former Obama's dangerous turn of America toward a progressive agenda and globalism.
The words are not dissimilar to those at Trump, giving a Make America Great Again rally speech Saturday, but Sanders took the mic in Sioux Center and will speak in Iowa later in the day.
I think our country is firing apart because so many of our institutions have become unmoored from the truth.
They've been lost in a sea of relativism.
And this is important because we're really at a crossroads as a country.
As bad as things are going right now, if things do not go well for us in 2024, it's going to get a whole lot worse.
The left in this country is really playing for keeps.
They are more aggressive and more strident than at any time in my lifetime.
Those problems that started with Obama have only gotten worse, DeSantis warned.
I look back and see some of those battles somewhat quaint, because the threats to freedom are much more profound today.
If the Democrats are able to sweep in 2024.
If they keep the White House, gain the Senate, take back the House, they'll try to pack the Supreme Court.
They will seek to eliminate the Electoral College, try to make Washington, D.C.
a state, and eliminate voter ID in every jurisdiction, making ballot harvesting mandatory.
The election rigging claims made by Trump were echoed by DeSantis.
Pushing for election integrity, he says, has to be the hallmark of America's future.
Now, that's not an agenda that appeals to us as a republic, but I think objectively.
If you went to the typical political American family, how many of them are sitting over the dinner table saying, oh man, I just wish we could force ballot harvesting in every part of the country?
No.
That's not what American families care about.
That's an agenda of a left-wing movement that wants to make the conservative half of the country second-class citizens.
They want to be able to call the shots.
They don't want us to have a voice in this government.
And that will have profound implications for us, for our kids, and for our grandkids.
He hailed his ability to put the left on the run in Florida, turning it from being a former battleground state to one that is now clearly Republican hell.
We have a lot of those folks in place like Miami who've been Democrats and voted Democrat and then they came to our side.
Not only voting for me, but now registering as Republicans.
So I don't buy the idea that we can't expand our basis of support.
Of course you can do that.
You can't win big with just Republicans, and we proved it.
But here's the thing.
We didn't do it by trimming our sails.
We didn't comport ourselves to be anything we're not.
We lead boldly.
We lead conservatively.
And we delivered results, and people responded.
Owen, your thoughts?
Yeah, for the, sorry, I had to move my mic, my computer alerted me that I was on low battery, but I think it's a very interesting thing between DeSantis and Trump.
And one of the things that I was, I was listening to Megan Kelly, and she said something interesting that I think I agree with.
I think she, what she said was that Trump versus DeSantis is not really a competition.
And I agree.
I don't think that DeSantis has much over Trump right now.
Trump has such a loyal group of Followers and supporters.
I just don't see he sucks up all the energy in every single room that he's in.
That's what I think Trump does.
And that's what that's exactly what Megan Kelly said, which is that, you know, it's going to be really tough for DeSantis.
And she doesn't think and I don't think I agree that DeSantis can really overcome.
Trump's weight.
He's kind of like a heliocentric person.
He sets himself into a room and he's like a sun.
His gravity is so great.
It draws all the attention, all the energy in.
And I think that that's just an aspect of his charisma that he's really cultivated over his career in Washington thus far.
And I think that he has such a loyal, faithful group of supporters.
Um, that won't vote for DeSantis over him.
And I think that that's one of the things that would be really interesting to see if DeSantis even decides to run.
I really don't think he should.
I think that his only chance would be if Trump crowns him.
Trump says that DeSantis is the next guy who's up for the task.
If Trump actually, you know, bows out of the election or something like that.
No, that's not going to happen.
But I think it.
You know, for DeSantis, I think most people, most American, you know, the voters really think that DeSantis has to wait his turn.
I don't think they think it's his turn yet.
I think a lot of people think that Trump got screwed out of his last election, that his first term was, you know, mild controversy in the amount of times that they impeached him and everything that's going on right now.
I think that they really want to see him have a second chance to do it right, to do what he said he was going to do and do even more.
You know, I love Donald Trump for the nomination.
I think one of the hallmarks of Trump's presidency for me, one of the really cool things I think I always love to focus on, which is that in the entire eight years that Barack Obama was the President of the United States, he had a little bit over 300 child trafficking arrests.
So major child trafficking arrests for big, you know, child traffickers, whether it's domestic or overseas.
He had a little bit over 300.
In the first year of Trump's presidency, 2017, Trump had over 6,000.
He had over 6,000 major child traffickers that were arrested, put behind bars.
He went in there and he busted up child trafficking.
He busted up pedophile rings.
This is what he did.
And I'd like to see more of that, a return to Very nice points, Brian.
Brian, yours.
Mute it.
to bust up some of the child trafficking that's going on, because I think it's one of the biggest issues.
It involves the deep state.
It involves the satanic agenda right now and the cults that we see that are actually running the world.
So I think that that's something that Trump has done an incredible job and his track record is sound.
Very nice points, Brian.
Brian, yours.
Mute it.
Mute it.
I remember prior to the 2016 election, going through YouTube and watching a guy that I really like called the Rageaholic.
I don't know if you've ever seen his YouTube channel, but he does great political commentary when he does political commentary, which is pretty rare.
He's sort of akin to Sticks, Hex, and Hammer, except a whole lot more energy than Sticks, Hex, and Hammer has.
And I remember going into that election and he was on YouTube.
Oh, Trump is going to get all 50.
I'm predicting he's going to get all 50, all 50 states.
And this was after all the back and forth that went one way or another.
And you know what?
That's how I was feeling at the same time.
Trump's going to get them all.
It's all going to happen.
No, I'm sorry.
This was the 2020 election, not the 2016 election.
Trump won 2016.
2020 came along and it just looked like it was going to be an absolute landslide.
And it wasn't.
And why did nothing change?
Number one, the voting machines were rigged.
Nobody cared.
Nobody investigated.
So there was no law agency that really took a serious look at it because the FBI wasn't not going to investigate this because obviously they supported Biden.
It was very difficult to find any major urban area where there was a district attorney that was naturally brought into the office without George Soros money and that district attorney was willing to go after any sort of voter reforms whatsoever.
Nothing has changed.
All major urban swing areas will go Democrat again because nobody hung.
And if nobody hung and there was no justice, why not do it again?
Oh yeah, I think you're absolutely right.
That's what they're counting on.
They're counting on being able to steal the election again and again and again and again.
This rather surprised me.
Bobby Jr.
comments on being Trump's VP.
Robert Kennedy Jr., a Democrat running for president, said he would not, under any circumstances, run with former President Trump in the general election of 2024.
Kennedy, who declared his candidacy last month, sent a statement on social media just to put an end to any rumors.
Under no circumstances would I accompany Donald Trump on a presidential electoral ticket.
He said, our approach to governance, our philosophies on leadership, and our positions on certain basic topics couldn't be further apart.
A day before he made that assertion, a Rasmussen report showed the majority of independent voters, as well as both Democrats and Republicans, had a favorable opinion of Bobby Jr.
While Democrats continued to favor Biden over Kennedy and Marianne Williamson, likely voters as a whole were divided about the merits of a Biden-Harris versus a Trump-Kennedy ticket.
The ball found.
In a contest between President Biden and Harris, 44% would support Trump-Kennedy, 44% would support Biden-Harris.
7% would support a different candidate, 5% unsure.
In such a contest, Trump-Kennedy would have the support of 41% of unaffiliated, 72% of Republican, 20% of Democrats, Who would support Biden-Harris with 72% of their vote, catching 14% of Republicans and 44% of the unaffiliated.
The poll's release says Bobby Jr.
seemed to push what some have called a populist agenda, rejecting some of the claims by his party's most extreme members.
For instance, he said one could be pro-immigration and pro-securing the border.
Meanwhile, the U.S.
has seen almost 5 million border crossers, actually 6, and illegal immigrants enter the country since Biden took office.
America should be a land of freedom and wealth that welcomes immigrants who uphold the law and enrich our community.
However, Immigration must take place in a legal and orderly way.
There is now anarchy at the border, criminal activity, unacceptable stress on border states such as Texas, and human trafficking.
It is a nightmare for humanity.
He has also publicly discussed American censorship, pointed a direct assault against our democracy.
Here's an informal, unscientific poll.
Biden says he can beat Trump easily in 2024.
Is he right?
3% agree he's right.
97% no.
Trump will win.
Owen, your thoughts?
Yeah, this would be an interesting election.
I really like Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
I think he's, you know, Children's Health Defense is one of my favorite sites.
I think what they do is amazing.
Their focus on safeguarding children is, I think, one of the more underappreciated and under I'd say undervalued aspects of what he does.
It's not something that any candidate is really focused on.
The fact that he is anti-vax, although the interesting thing I will say about Kennedy is that he really hasn't touched the vaccine topic yet, because it's sort of one of those untouchable political topics that seems to write you off if you address it in a negative light.
You know badly about vaccines or say the truth and tell the American people the truth.
You're not going to get elected.
That's just not something that people are ready for.
And I think that Kennedy knows this as well as Trump.
But I'm really curious to see what's going to happen in terms of his election.
Colleague of mine, Shannon joy from Rochester was in Boston and saw his announcement was there for his speech and covered it on the ground.
I think that 1 of the things that he focuses on is the environment and how it harms children, how it negatively impacts children as well as large companies and what they are putting inside of their products.
That harm children, some of the more dangerous aspects of farming and some of the pesticides.
He's focusing on really, really good environmental things that are harming kids.
And I think that that's a really, really strong poll.
It's going to be a strong poll for a lot of voters who don't want to see kids harmed.
You don't want to see kids exposed to harmful toxins and chemicals.
I think that it's a niche position that he has.
He hasn't touched on things like abortion yet.
He hasn't touched on some of those more broader, you know, general topics yet.
So it'd be interesting to see.
He does.
He does fit into a particular niche, and I don't know if that's going to be good enough to get him, you know, a presidential nomination.
I doubt it will.
In terms of Biden versus Trump, the only way that Biden wins is if they rig the election.
And I think that one of the things that happens is that if Biden and Trump run against each other again, I don't know what's going to happen, but I don't think Trump will win.
I think it'll be another rigged election.
But I think that it might be one of the best things that happens.
Because when people see just how blatant it is, just how, you know, I think we'll be more prepared this time to expose some of the fraud that takes place if that's actually what's going to happen.
And I think that a lot of people are going to wake up as a result.
If Joe Biden wins again, people are going to be disillusioned completely with the election process in our country.
And I'm already disillusioned.
I know you guys are as well.
I think it doesn't function the way that we want it to.
It doesn't function in a free way.
So, that being said, this is going to be a heck of an election.
It's going to be the most fun, I think, in a long time.
I can't wait to see Trump up there.
He's hilarious.
He makes me laugh.
He's just a comedian at times.
But I like Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
as well.
And, you know, I wouldn't I would vote Democrat.
I would vote for Robert F. Kennedy Jr., and I would vote Democrat for the first time, because for me it's not about picking a side or tribes.
It's just about picking the right candidate.
Well, I think he was viewed as attractive.
He has strengths, greats, weaknesses, warp speed, and the Vax, and Bobby Jr.
obviously compensates.
But he also seems to be into global warming, which is a myth and doing tremendous damage.
Brian, your thoughts?
Well, not only is he into global warming, but he's also into gun control, which is a major problem for me.
Not just for its lack of constitutionality, but also for what it would contribute to our society in terms of crime.
Yeah.
So, no, I'm not a supporter of Robert F. Kennedy running alone, but the whole point of the The article was, well, what if Robert F. Kennedy ran with Trump and they could reunite the two parties?
Well, that's not going to happen.
Donald Trump's not going to take a Democrat in sheep's clothing like Robert F. Kennedy.
And by the way, I like the guy too.
I like what he stands for in terms of overhauling the medical machine, which is so, so bad.
I don't see him ever getting a chance.
You're going to continue to see the same things.
Number one, when Joe, that question for that poll said Joe Biden says he can basically wipe the floor with Trump.
Well, he said that last time too, and guess what?
He did.
He owns the largest vote-rigging apparatus machine or his organization, whoever he really is.
I don't know who he is.
He's like a Clinton to me.
He's just a ghost that lives forever, that wears a mask and parades around pretending to be A crazy old senile old man eating chocolate chip ice cream.
I mean, it's disgusting what's going on out there.
But yeah, when you own the major urban centers and the voting apparatus in the major urban centers, which are the swing apparatuses, and none of our elective representatives will go out and stand up for taking a close inspection of the Electoral College, Then you can wipe the floor with any candidate.
I mean anybody, anywhere, anytime.
How can you fix the rigged election?
How can you beat a rigged system?
Will it be fun?
No.
I don't think it will this time, because we're going to continue to be gaslit by all the mainstream media television puppets.
They're going to continue to tell us that we can't think in a straight line.
They're going to continue to tell us that we're all crazy, and we don't understand what's really happening, and all these talking heads are going to continue chirping, and the American people are going to continue doing what they've always done, which is settle into their couch, Eat their popcorn and ice cream and do nothing to change what's happening in our society.
Even that!
Where do I start?
I'm going to go to my little tiny county, Chambers County, and tell them to fix the system?
The system's not broken here in Chambers County.
The system's broken across the river in Paris County.
I live in Chambers County.
Am I not supposed to care what's gonna... That machine across the river, that six million person Harris County machine across the river is one of the scariest nuts you'll ever see to crack anywhere on the planet Earth.
Six million people live across that river.
Four million in Houston alone.
And all these freeways feed out this direction.
The political machine here is insane.
If you want to go out there and try to change it, more power to you.
But you're not going to get any help from the media.
You're not going to get any help from the educational institutions.
You're not going to get any help from the Department of Justice.
You're not going to get any help from the feds.
You're not going to get any help from your local district attorney.
You're not going to get any help from your local police chief or your sheriff or anybody else.
So can Biden wipe the floor with Trump?
Yes, he can.
And yes, he will.
Because nothing has changed.
Well said, Ryan, well said.
I actually think they're going to cash in Biden because he's such a loser for Gavin Newsom, but that's another story.
Meanwhile, rivals of any kind were involved in 297 deaths last year in America.
Constipation, by contrast, killed 2,167.
2,167.
That's a rather telling statistic.
Meanwhile, organ transplants from Vax donors are failing at higher than normal rates.
There's at least one gullible group excited about all the dead bodies filing up with the COVID vaccine backfiring, and that is organ transplant surgeons.
A new question everyone who's a vaccine skeptic should be thinking about.
Would you want an organ transplant from someone who was vaxxed against COVID?
Because those transplants were already happening and the organs from that patient have a failure rate about twice as high as the organs of the unvaxxed.
Yeah.
We've been talking about organ transplant more recently.
A woman in Alberta denied an organ transplant because she didn't want to take the vax.
My mom in Georgia has gone through a similar experience here in the U.S.
She can't get surgery unless she submits to the VAX.
Both women, by the way, have robust antibodies in their system.
They both caught COVID and recovered.
Well, we haven't looked much at the question in terms of whether a vax person's organs are viable.
There's already a surprising amount of literature from other countries when it comes to this question, which the medical community here in the U.S.
has not even begun to ask.
There have also been high-profile cases in which people have been denied surgery because they do not want to receive a spike protein-infected blood transfusion from vaccinated blood donors.
Were they conspiracy theorists?
It sure doesn't look like it.
Other countries are now acknowledging the vax as killing people.
New Zealand, Australia, Japan, and most of Europe have come to grip with the fact that the mRNA shots are inducing early deaths.
All-cause mortality has increased by 15 to 25% in every heavily vaxed country, including here in the United States.
If you think something else is causing this, please let us know.
We'd love to hear your theories.
Organ transplant surgeons have been very excited about this new development with so many more dying unexpectedly, especially younger people.
It creates a lot more potential organ donors.
Transplant surgeons have known for some time when a person dies from a stroke, for example, their potential donor organs come out in pretty good shape.
Since stroke damage happens in the brain, stroke victims happen to have very good, viable organs to harvest for transplantation.
And we have an awful lot of young and healthy people dying from strokes these days.
Actor Jamie Foxx, by the way, is in the hospital from a stroke, reportedly not looking good.
Foxx is 55.
Well, it's not unheard of for 55-year-olds to have strokes.
He was in tremendous physical shape when it hit him.
We hope he recovers.
What's the first thing everyone immediately thought when the news broke?
Also, a lot of reports of kids dying of strokes these days.
An incredible opportunity as far as transplant surgeons are concerned.
These victims have younger and healthier organs.
If you're an elderly transplant patient, why wouldn't you want to receive a heart, a lung, a kidney, or a liver from a healthy 16-year-old?
That would make perfect sense.
Now doctors in other countries know and acknowledge that COVID vax are killing people.
They've also been tracking the results of organ transplants from vax people.
And the news is not good.
One study out of New Zealand found kidney transplant from those who died from the vax have a 22% failure rejection rate.
Meaning the patient body rejects the vaccinated kidney and the operation is a failure.
A normal failure rate.
Her kidney transplant prior to the vax was around 10%!
Transplanting organs from VAX has more than doubled the failure rate.
That's not all, alas.
Deceased donors are somehow transmitting aspects of their vaccine-induced fatal illness to transplant organ recipients.
According to Guy David Hatcher, this includes thrombosis, blood clotting, or internal bleeding.
Organ recipients are also developing pathogenic lymphocytes, which cause the type of blood clotting associated with strokes.
Well, down to plain English.
Patients who receive a kidney from a Vaxxverse are then developing the same problems that killed the donor.
More research is needed, obviously.
But early evidence points to a possibility.
I would say probability.
I'd say virtual certainty.
People should not receive organ transplant from the vaccinated.
Owen, your thoughts?
Yeah, you know, the literature is pretty sound on this.
One of the things that we know immediately is that when the spike protein goes in, it's either going to go to your heart, your kidneys, and your lungs.
There are parts of your body that can actually filter out The spike protein and really the symptoms depend and it goes to your brain as well.
The symptoms depend on where these spike proteins gain access and where they're passing that blood brain barrier.
So a lot of people dealing with strokes, then it's evident that the vaccine, the spike proteins are really are taking hold in people's brains and the neurological conditions that come.
As a result, and then in the case of people that die from myocarditis, it's because the spike proteins were more present in the heart and the heart can't really filter those out.
But people that have those spike proteins that enter the liver, for instance, that can actually filter it out.
The liver is something that has been shown to be able to filter it out.
So I'd say, of course, you shouldn't get an organ transplant from somebody that has had a vaccine.
In the same light, you shouldn't get blood transfused from somebody who's had the vaccine.
It's something that is changing our genes.
This is something that we have to really understand.
It's not a vaccine.
It's not a...
Inoculation to an illness.
It is a fundamental transformation of your human genome.
Your human genome is fundamentally transformed from inside the cell.
So, at a cellular level, it's transforming the way that our DNA looks.
It's transforming it from God's image and the way that God created us to some kind of big pharma image and the way that this society wants you to be.
It doesn't want you to be a son or daughter of God, made in God's image.
It hates God's image.
The agenda, these people, these evil people pushing the vaccine hate God.
They hate God's image.
And so this vaccine really, in my opinion, is a targeted assault against God's image.
It's a targeted assault against our natural immunity and who God made us to be, able to recover from disease because our immune systems are built that way.
It's meant to corrupt you.
It's meant to turn you.
It's a part of the transhumanist agenda.
And right now, I see It's a sad thing to see so many of my friends who are dealing with severe issues and will be dealing with severe issues the rest of their life because of a momentary lapse in judgment and a decision that led to following the crowd, following the nearly 280 million Americans that went along with it.
It's a tragic thing.
You got that.
And I don't know if we'll ever, I don't know how many people are going to die at the end or die in the end, but there will be a lot of people dealing with severe life-threatening illnesses for the rest of their life, which is just...
You got that.
Exactly right, Owen, Brian.
Well, I guess if I need a new organ, I'll take whatever I can get.
I'm probably feeling so bad, I'll just take whatever you give me.
I don't care.
As a matter of fact, I probably don't even want to know if I need a new liver.
Put a new liver in me, because obviously I'm going to die.
And this isn't me personally.
I have no fear of death, and I mean that.
I can understand how a sick person whose body is coming apart would take whatever they can.
I think what the article is doing is pointing out how the doctors are frustrated because they're having higher than normal failure rates when it comes to their Medical miracles.
Oh, surprise, surprise, surprise.
You go pump the blood with a bunch of toxins and all of a sudden the body isn't quite as healthy as it used to be.
It doesn't have the same immunities that it used to have.
And it doesn't surprise me because, you know, if I go talk to a doctor about a false flag, I'm hoping that that doctor has his brain screwed on straight, right?
I'm hoping, oh, here's a guy that can think.
No, he is, he can think about medicine.
He's trained to think about medicine, but that doesn't mean he can think about everything else that's happening in this world or in willing to engage his critical thinking.
I've been to medical conferences where doctors had to get their CE.
I was the technical director of one, one time, and I can tell you something for certain.
When it comes to the way this world works, these people don't know.
They don't understand.
They know medicine.
They know embryonics and bacteriology and neuroscience and everything else about the human body that they can know, but they can't figure out what a false flag looks like because they don't, they can't think critically.
This is why that show house MD was so special, right?
Because the guy could actually think and he showed up all the other doctors who couldn't actually think.
Surprise, surprise, surprise.
That's how it is.
You know, I never watch a show, but you make it sound as though it was really actually very important.
It's a funny shame.
Meanwhile, the astonishing verdict in the E. Jean Carroll case.
This is published on RSN, which of course is a left-leaning site, originally authored by David Graham of The Atlantic.
What's striking is that I just took a shot at it and posted a comment I thought would be immediately erased and they allowed it to stand.
Donald Trump has been found liable by a jury for an act of sexual violence perpetrated nearly 30 years ago.
A perpetual circus and endless scandals that attend Donald Trump, whether in his personal life, business, or politics, can obscure the utter strangeness of the circumstances of any one case.
So pause to consider what happened today in a Manhattan courtroom.
A jury, after fewer than three hours of deliberation, concluded the former president sexually abused and defamed the writer E. Jean Carroll, though jurors also concluded her accusation of rape wasn't proven.
The jury awarded Carroll about 5 mil in damages.
That result is astonishing.
This is a former president of America Being found liable by a jury of his peers for defamation resulting from an act of sexual violence perpetrated nearly 30 years ago.
The verdict is a sign of two competing truths about American society today.
A country has someone more willing to hold powerful men to account for their behavior and yet, at the same time, is still willing to give them power again and again.
The shock of the verdict is not because the allegations were particularly difficult to believe.
On one side was Carroll, whose account of the incident was clear, consistent, and nauseating in the rest of his city.
Carroll sued Trump for defamation after he brought off the allegation by saying, she's not my type.
On the other was Trump.
The former president faced a challenge in defending himself in the case.
Much of Carroll's account matched a modus operandi at least 26 women who have accused Trump of sexual assault have described.
Carroll interviewed five of them for a series in The Atlantic in 2020.
Trump denies the allegations.
Trump himself described his approach in the infamous leak recording from Access Hollywood, in which he boasted about sexually assaulting women.
You know, I'm automatically attracted to beautiful— I just start kissing them.
It's like a magnet.
Just kiss.
I don't even wait.
And when you're a star, they let you do it.
You can do anything, he said.
Grab them by the pussy.
You can do anything.
Trump didn't bother to show up for the trial, claiming he wanted to spare New Yorkers the traffic jams his president would cause last week in Ireland.
He said he'd fly home to appear in court, but surprisingly, no one he didn't.
Trump's absence might have reflected a recognition from the outset that he was likely to lose and a desire to distance himself from the case.
And although it's impossible to determine how much it was a factor in the trial's outcome, By failing to show up, he sent a message to the jury that he wasn't invested in defending himself.
His lawyers reinforced the message by declining to call witness and instead trying to pick apart Carroll's case during cross-examination.
What kind of witness would Trump have called anyway?
Finding an alibi for a moment 27 years ago would be tough.
And who would be a convincing character witness?
Carol's lawyer made Trump a presence in the courtroom anyway, playing excerpts from his deposition for the case to devastating effect.
In one instance, going straight at Trump's not-my-type defense, Carol's lawyer showed him a photograph of Carol, asked to identify her.
He must have Carol for his ex-wife Marla Maples, whom Trump had to admit was his type.
More appalling was the discussion of the Access Hollywood tape.
Trump, both in the past and in the deposition, wrote that off as locker room talk.
But he couldn't bring himself to repudiate or even distance himself from the comments, even now, nearly two decades later.
Well, historically, that's true with stars, he said.
True with stars that they can grab women by the pussy, Carol's attorney Roberta Kaplan asked.
Well, that's what.
If you look over the last million years, I guess that's been largely true, Trump said.
Not always, but largely true, unfortunately or fortunately.
Unfortunately or fortunately.
And you consider yourself to be a star Kabbalist prodigy?
I think you can say that, yeah.
Trump replied smugly, and signed the last million years as president.
He seemed to believe he was still living in them.
Trump is not the first man to be both president and a sexual assaulter, but he is the first to have a jury find so.
The verdict against him shows that in at least one case with one high profile and unrepentant defendant.
The old world in which powerful men could do anything they wanted to women has passed away.
Things have changed a little in the past 1 million years, or at least in the past 30.
So I posted, expecting it would be immediately deleted.
This case should never have gone to trial.
What woman is when rape cannot recall the year, much less the month, the week, the day, and the time?
And how could Trump defend himself with an alibi absent that information?
There was nothing specific about the date and time.
This was a fantasy.
Where Law and Order SVU had presented a rape in the lingerie department of Bergdorf Goodman seven years earlier.
She was a huge fan of The Apprentice and told Anderson Cooper that rape is sexy and promotes fantasies.
What is more probable?
That she was raped but can't remember even the year it took place?
Or that she has an infatuation with Trump and has fantasized this event?
Not a tough call.
Meanwhile, JCM replied.
Told Anderson Cooper that rape is sexy and promos fantasy?
Not true.
Trump said it, not her.
I responded.
How can—well, RSN actually deleted my response to the false claim, but then wound up believing it up.
I was dumbfounded.
Here she is in the flesh, telling Anderson Cooper that most people think Rake is sexy and promotes fantasies.
She's also admitted to being a fan of Law & Order, but claims she did not watch the SVU episode because they were too violent.
Having watched hundreds myself, what she has claimed is simply not credible.
Here she is with Anderson.
You don't feel like a victim?
I was not thrown on the ground and ravished.
The word rape carries so many sexual connotations.
This was not sexual.
It hurt.
I think most people think of rape as a violent assault.
I think most people think of rape as being sexy.
Let's take a short break.
Think of the fantasies.
We're going to take a quick break.
If you can stick around, we'll talk more on the other side.
You're fascinating to talk to.
I don't think so.
Robert Mill added, this is a shockingly funny article.
Take this one.
Carol sued Trump for defamation after he brushed off the allegation by saying she's not my type.
So now, concluding that someone is not your type or more bluntly that you are not sexually attracted to someone is defamation?
So I guess every human being on earth defames some other person several times a day.
I guess it is a personal offense to learn that someone is not sexually attracted to you.
But what does that say about that you actually care?
Well, I guess anything can be a defamation, even to be alive.
It seems to me as if Carol defamed herself in her tell-all book about all the rich and awful men who raped her.
She seemed to have sought them out and then exalted in being raped by them.
Interestingly, she does not mention Trump as a rapist in that book.
That story was invented later.
A New York judge and jury would convict a ham sandwich if they thought it was Trump's.
It does not matter what the charges were.
The fact that it was Trump's is enough for a conviction.
A perpetual circus and endless scandals that attend Donald Trump, whether in his personal life, business, or politics, can obscure the utter strangeness of the circumstances in any one case.
This is, of course, the formula of the Democrat Party, as Br'er John Escher, who, by the way, was posting repeatedly against us in favor of the narrative, turns it to defeat Trump in 2024 was also the formula for 2020 and 2016.
Buckle up, Br'er John.
It's going to be a very strange ride from here on.
There was more and pretty interesting stuff, but what astonished me is that RSN let it stand.
There was another reply on my side that was devastating.
Owen.
Yeah, one of the things that I was talking about with my family in terms of the candidates and Trump specifically was that you're not going to find a candidate that checks all the boxes.
You're not going to find a candidate that's perfect.
It doesn't exist.
A perfect man doesn't exist.
And Trump is certainly not a perfect man.
He's not a perfect person.
He is flawed, just like you or me.
He is from New York.
And he made his in the 70s and in the 80s.
He made his fortunes this dude.
He's a product of the 70s a product of his time.
He's not a pro.
He's not going to change.
He's he's, you know, unfortunately to say that was the that was the view back then, you know, that was a much more male dominant as a man's world back then, you know, and I really think that, you know, hearing the hearing the the way that he describes what happened.
He's He's not going to apologize for something like this.
It's not something that I think that really deserves an apology.
It's not like he did anything.
He vividly described being attracted to women, but yeah, he's a guy.
And I think one of the things that is irritating is that people just can't, they can't see what he says for how funny and humorous it actually is.
And everything that he says has to be magnified.
And it has to, you know, he's got to mean something with everything he says.
I don't think that's true with Trump.
I don't think that he's actually thinking about some of the things he says.
I think he just says it.
And that's okay.
That's just a normal part of being a human.
He's really a unique kind of character here.
He's from New York, and if you- I'm from New York, okay?
And you don't- it's a different type of communication.
We communicate in a different type of way, and you've got to be from there to really understand what New Yorkers sound like and how they talk.
It's completely different than other states, and if you get offended, that's not your- that's- that's your fault.
Because he's a New York guy, that's where he's from, and I love that, actually, about him.
That's why he gets up there in front of CNN and calls one of them pencil neck.
And he has a hilarious joke for every single... That's great!
That's good!
That's what I like to see!
And that's what I think draws so many people to him.
He's hilarious.
He is so funny.
And I think that people just don't give him the credit for that.
Obviously, it's not a good look.
But then again, you're not going to find a perfect candidate.
And like we said, the knock against Trump is the vaccine thing and Operation Warp Speed and everything.
Operation Warp Speed.
It's just you're not going to find a guy that checks all the boxes.
You're simply not.
So you have to pick and choose and make an informed decision about the best candidate that you can.
And you know, everybody's going to fall short at some level.
Brian.
I don't think Trump cares about E. Jean Carroll, and I think his lawyers do, that they were going to lose in New York no matter what.
They're going to figure out a way to railroad him.
He didn't care.
That's why he didn't even bother showing up, and that's why he took his deposition with such levity that he would say something like, grab him by the pussy, you know, whatever.
This is Donald Trump.
Donald Trump is Donald Trump.
Who cares what happened?
I think all you need to know about the story is that off of E. Jean Carroll's own Facebook, I think it was in 2017, she wrote in the comments that her favorite show was The Apprentice.
Now does that sound like somebody who's been raped by Donald Trump?
Dealing with the continual trauma of being defamed about the terrible, he took my integrity, he raped me, violated my bodies.
Now my favorite actor and it's my favorite show, watching The Apprentice.
I think it's a joke.
It's all, look, somebody read her book and said, hey, we could plug in Donald Trump here.
She'd make a decent, again, Christine Blasey Ford, Brett Kavanaugh.
Let's plug her in, give her a story, rig the court, put her up on the stand, play play the victim.
This is nothing more than Christine Blasey Ford 2.0 versus Trump.
And so we had Stormy Dad.
You could go down the list of all the people that have tried to shake down powerful men over the course of their careers.
Blah, blah, blah.
It's what women do, boys.
Yeah.
And the fact he wrote a book about all these men who were rich and powerful and supposed to have raped her.
I mean, she's a fantasist!
And she did not include Donald Trump, what does that tell you?
Yeah.
And she's a huge fan of his show.
His show.
Meanwhile, why, I'm almost ready to vote for Trump, even if he runs from death row, Kevin Barrett, dear friend of mine.
Donald Trump is in many ways an odious figure.
A narcissistic, semi-literate scoundrel who doesn't even pretend otherwise, his primary redeeming qualities are a talent for channeling populist outrage and a certain reluctance to engage in bloody, pointless wars.
Normally, I only vote for people I like, like Cynthia McKinney and R.K.
Jr., which is why I've never voted for a major party candidate in a general election.
And yet, very much my first ever vote for a mainstream candidate will be for the loathsome Trump.
But the fake left oligarchs and their lapdog media are working overtime to convince me to at least entertain the possibility.
The thing is, the media, legal, and political landscape has grown so grotesquely one-sided that Trump claims that the system is rigged against him, which once seemed whiny and petulant, are increasingly being validated.
Big media's deep state has since said suppression of the Hunter Biden laptop story was, for many of us, a proverbial straw that broke the camel's back.
Since that election deciding outrage, it has been obvious and undeniable that just because Trump is paranoid doesn't mean they aren't out to get him.
And the outrages just keep coming, as J. Mike Springman and I remarked on False Flag Weekly News.
A week's too big trial by Vance.
His civil conviction for libel and sexual assault in his CNN town hall battle with Caitlin Collins almost seemed to have been orchestrated to spotlight Trump's unfair treatment at the hands of the establishment.
Jimmy Dore makes a good case that Trump's civil trial for sexual assault and defamation was a pure Democratic hit job.
Norm points out that New York's bizarre one-year repeal of the Statute of Limitations was specifically designed to grease the skids for Carol V. Trump.
Since when did governments start temporarily repealing Statutes of Limitations so they can go after political figures they don't like?
The move seems especially egregious because it involves an almost three-decade-old case in which the alleged victim can't even remember which year the alleged assault happened and has no evidence whatsoever in her word against his.
If you're going to do something as extreme as suspending the statute of limitations so you can prosecute a specific case, shouldn't you at least have some evidence?
My advice to the Democrats, they might as well go all the way and prosecute Trump for murder.
Why murder?
For one thing, there's no statute of limitation on murder, so they won't have to bother suspending it.
And just as Trump once said a stupid thing about grabbing women's genitals that made him sound like the kind of person who might do something like that, he also once said, I could stand in the middle of Fifth Avenue and shoot somebody, and I wouldn't lose voters.
So why not bring in evidence-free prosecution against him for shooting someone in the middle of Fifth Avenue?
Just find someone willing to claim they saw Trump shoot someone to death in the middle of Fifth Avenue in 1995, or was it 1996?
It'll be their word against his.
And we all know Trump is a liar.
Why?
Because the media never stops telling us so.
No New York jury could possibly fail to convict.
And no New York judge could resist sentencing Trump to death.
Yes, I know.
New York suspended the death penalty in 2004.
But they could temporarily change that, just like they temporarily removed the statute of limitations in order to dispose of Trump.
Once Trump's been convicted and sentenced to death, we'll all be able to breathe freely and get on with our lives, right?
Not so fast.
Trump lawyers will undoubtedly find a way to string out the appeal process, allowing him to become the first ever candidate to run for president from death row.
What happens when he wins the election and his scheduled rendezvous with the electric chair happens to coincide With inauguration day, will Trump be helicoptered to Washington, D.C.
in handcuffs on January 20, 2025, frogmarked into the Capitol, administered the oath of office, and then strapped into a special portable electric chair designed just for him and zapped like a bug?
Well, has hair turned an even brighter shade of orange as it bursts into flame?
The Democrats would no doubt view it as inadequate payback for the horrors Trump unleashed there on January 6, 2021.
But still, think of the ratings.
Owen, your thoughts?
Well, that's a that's a very fantastical view of the future, man.
Hey, who knows?
Who knows what's going to happen?
But I think the point that At this point they could really what this points out is that at this point they could really convict him for anything they want you know it's it's really not about truth and so you know since that's the case it's just a lot of the what's really dangerous is and really may be good is that a lot of the Trump voters most of us everybody we're completely disillusioned with the system we live in now and with America now and
We don't, I don't consider my country to be a good country.
I don't consider my country to be a country that values freedom or promotes freedom or promotes the Republic.
I view America in a very different light than I maybe did even a few years ago.
And that's just because of information that I know now that I didn't know then.
And what's going to be a really, really important process for a lot of Americans right now is going to be the process by which they become disillusioned with their own country, the process by which they become disillusioned with elections, and the entire process by which we run this country, and with every institution, and with everything that they say.
And this lack of meaning and lack of sense-making with our government is going to come to a head.
And people are going to start to realize that they have to count on something else.
And what are you supposed to count on now that you don't think that your government has your best interests in mind?
What else is there?
And I think this lays the groundwork for a serious spiritual awakening.
I think it lays the groundwork for something big to happen.
I think it lays the groundwork for very, very courageous people to march in and try to restore meaning in some way.
The only way to do that involves Jesus.
It involves Jesus at some level.
It involves faith.
on some level.
And so I think that although this is, it's might get a lot darker before it gets better.
I think that that might be what's necessary in order to usher in a better future for my kids, a better future for my siblings, a better future for all of us in my generation.
You know, that's what I'm searching for.
And, you know, in some small way, I'd like to be a part of that solution.
Brian.
Brian.
Oh, okay.
A little delay there.
Um, I I like the article, it was cute.
President Trump reminds me of, let me see if I can find this guy, yeah, Dwayne Camacho.
Dwayne Elizondo Mountain Dew Herbert Camacho, the 79th President of the United States from the film Idiocracy by Mike Judge.
That's President Trump.
Remember him?
The big black guy Terry Crews played?
Came out, got everybody's attention by firing some machine guns off.
Ex-porn star.
Ex-big time wrestler.
Yeah.
They're right about this.
Donald Trump is a great showman.
And he could run from death row.
I'm not kidding.
But I get the feeling that Mike Judge got the inspiration for Dwayne Camacho from President Trump.
Either that or the Back to the Future president.
Who was that guy?
That was Biff.
Biff looked a lot like Trump, didn't he?
Yeah, look, I appreciate the article.
I appreciate the guy's candor about the funny of the whole situation.
And you know what?
I think Trump even takes it funny.
And like I've said before, the more you attack the guy, the stronger it gets.
So keep it up.
Why don't they come out with another 75 rats to go ahead and go out after him?
It'll just make him stronger.
Kevin is a wonderful satirist.
I love the piece.
Meanwhile, Brandon Smith.
Tolerance is overrated.
It's time to start gatekeeping American society again.
Very thoughtful.
Whenever we have to address the issue of progressive ideology in America today, the debate inevitably finds its way to the grand idealism of acceptance and tolerance.
The assertion by leftists is they are on the side of freedom and human rights, and that by confronting or separating ourselves from certain behaviors, we are revealing our bigotry and discrimination.
In other words, leftists assert that all personal beliefs and behaviors must be embraced by the populace in order for society to become pure.
Except, this is not what they really believe.
Leftists argue for tolerance of aberrant behavior while admonishing normal human, tribal, and biological reactions.
They have a vision for the world, and certain beliefs are not accepted within that utopian fantasy.
The basis of the leftist religion is not a deity, it is self-perception.
They worship themselves and think the collective is valuable as long as it reaffirms their identity.
Anything that might restrict their pursuit of self-aggrandizement is considered oppressive.
This is why they often argue in favor of moral relativism.
They have a delusion in their mind of what they are.
They see themselves as a fantastic gift to the world.
But If people are allowed to judge them on their moral failings, then they will always be reminded that they are not all that impressive.
So he's seeking to control the views and speech of others.
Well, they speak constantly of acceptance.
They rely on zealotry to achieve their objectives.
They're highly intolerant of people who do not want to participate in their movement or their activism, in fact.
One of the most used protest slogans of the left is, silence is violence.
By refusing to support them or keeping to yourself, you automatically become their enemy, even if you don't directly oppose them.
At bottom, what leftists really promote is a series of double standards by using accusation of bigotry as a weapon to silence their critics.
They have taken control of the narrative because many Americans are afraid to say the truth out loud.
The truth is, tolerance is overrated and destructive.
Gatekeeping and discrimination, to a certain degree, are absolutely essential to the survival of humanity.
That is to say, Intolerance of certain people, beliefs, actions, and ideologies is a good thing.
We need to bring back rational intolerance.
There are people within the liberty movement and conservative circles that hold more libertarian views on this issue.
Some might suggest my position runs contrary to the concept of the non-aggression principle.
They might say as long as people are not harming us directly, we should stay out of their way.
I say there's a fine line between tolerance and submissive pacifism.
Obviously, the globalist establishment and their puppets within the political left are relying on provocateur tactics to a certain degree.
One might suggest they want us to lash out violently so they can demonize us further.
Or they want us to embrace government power more fully so they can paint us as authoritarian.
This is a simplistic grade school view of provocateur methods though.
In reality, the goal of provocateurs is not to get us to react, but to frighten us into doing nothing.
Look at the circus surrounding January 6th, for example.
The establishment heard a protest of unarmed people who walked into a building and then left of their own accord into an insurrection.
Did some people get violent?
Of course!
Though not a single person died because of the actions of protesters.
Was there property damage?
Nothing compared to the billions in damage caused by the BLM and Antifa riots.
But conservative protesters are being labeled enemies of the state, being locked up right now, while BLM is labeled mostly peaceful.
The double standard is clear, but the reason is often misunderstood.
They do not want liberty movement organization.
They do not want planned actions.
They do not want open marches by conservatives.
They do not want the world to see our numbers.
They want us silent and complacent and uninvolved.
Provoking a reaction is not the endgame.
The double standard is not the endgame.
The endgame is for conservatives to give up because they fear the double standard.
Every strategy of the left circles back to pacification of the population, whether they're accusing us of racism or transphobia or fascism or insurrection.
None of this matters.
The moment we abandon the fallacies of tolerance and block destructive efforts is the moment we become truly free and effective.
There's a certain situation in which the non-aggression principle does not apply.
Currently, the U.S.
is experiencing full-blown fourth-generation warfare in the span of less than a decade.
We have seen the imposition of critical race theory, trans ideology, Marxism, and a spectrum of progressive concepts invade public schools.
American children are being indoctrinated into the leftist fold in a dizzying propaganda blitzkrieg.
Now, a libertarian mindset would suggest we simply pull our kids out of public school and remove our participation.
That might work for some, but the vast majority of parents are going to continue placing their kids in schools because they have no other choice.
We don't have the time needed to create new educational systems and alternatives.
School vouchers are a start, but even then it would take well over a decade for parents to adjust.
The only answer is to shut down the indoctrination, by force, if necessary.
Leftist teachers that promote their ideology in class need to be removed from publicly funded schools.
CRT, gender fluid propaganda, one-sided socialist concept will have to be banned from these institutions.
Drag shows for kids need to be punished.
Gender affirmation surgeries and chemical therapies for children need to be abolished.
Invasion of woke disinformation.
Into our media.
Needs to be confronted, and companies that promote it should be buried through boycotts.
Tolerance is killing us.
Intolerance is the answer.
While certain ideological movements might not target you personally, they will eventually destroy everything you love through attrition.
And it's never going to stop, because moral relativism is always finding new ground to desecrate.
You will not be allowed to have principles.
You won't be allowed to call out bad behavior.
Everything evil will be made acceptable.
If you really want to know where we're headed as a civilization, check out this trend being protected by courts in Pennsylvania.
Satanic clubs for elementary school children at public schools.
Some are already active.
The first inclination of those who defend constitutional values would be to cite religious freedom.
Of course.
Satanic and Luciferian groups consistently argue they are not a religion per se.
Rather, they claim they're an ideological system.
The reason the Afterschool Satan Club uses a satanic moniker is because it is, by definition, religiously related.
An ideological club is not necessarily protected by U.S.
courts.
A religious club is.
But should this apply to every religious club?
In a way, it makes sense.
This would be the natural evolution of abolute conquest.
Eventually, you're going to need some kind of religious framework to fill the void that politics leaves behind.
And what better religion than one founded in the belief of subjective morality and self-obsession?
In this specific instance, I don't accept that a cult built around promoting narcissism, moral relativism, and transhumanism should be allowed around children.
I think that communities should gather up their corches and pitchforks and run these people out of town.
But that's just me.
Is this intolerant?
Intolerance of behavior rooted in deconstruction is absolutely necessary.
Whether you are a religious person or agnostic or atheist, it's undeniable some methodologies encompass the absolute worst in humanity and should not be embraced.
A narrative of tolerance is leading us down a path to quiet complacence and consent.
The political left and the globalist establishment like to play games with our principles.
It's the old Alinsky tactic of holding your opponents at their own list of standards while you operate with none.
That is to say, they use our love of freedom against us, suggest we must allow them to do what they want, or we're not living up to the values, the rules we value.
However, It's not authoritarian to protect the next generation from indoctrination.
It's not hypocrisy to discriminate against the dark side.
If that makes me a bigot, so be it.
I'd rather live in a civilization of reasonable bigots than watch the world burn in the name of foolish equity.
Equity is reality inversion and it ends with everyone being equally dead by demo side.
Do not comply.
Owen, your thoughts?
I really don't have too much to add to that.
That article was really good.
It was really well written and the points were, that was tremendous, you know.
That's exactly right.
That's exactly right.
Everything he said is exactly right in terms of especially the satanic push that we're seeing right now.
And I think one thing that I would add is that the method by which we oppose this, what is it going to be?
I think a lot of conservative hosts say this a lot.
We say, well, it's a spiritual war.
It's a spiritual war, but then we never take steps to address it spiritually.
If we're going to say it's a spiritual war, if we're going to say that on live, you know, on radio, I say that all the time.
There's people that I've been on shows with for years that have said, this is primarily a spiritual war.
And then they go into cultural and political ways to solve it.
You can't solve a cultural or political problem.
You can't solve a spiritual problem with cultural and political solutions.
You can only solve a spiritual problem through spiritual solutions.
And so what's going to have to happen in this country is there has to be, like I said earlier, there is going to have to be a reawakening of goodness.
And that comes through the outpouring of the Holy Spirit.
Brian.
Bring back the philosophy text.
Bring back the romantic literature text.
Bring back the reading requirements that our founding fathers used to have to go through their own school.
Bring back the classical educations.
Yeah.
The fundamental problem is inside of our schools.
I'm a 50-year-old man, Jim.
You're what, 72, 70?
82.
82.
Wow.
82.
And I've personally seen Jim's library.
It is a very good library.
Missing some things.
Could be some other things here and there.
But we have to go back to learning to think in a straight line if we want to break this Liberal stranglehold.
And I've talked about this in recent shows.
The idea of a social credit score is that everybody coagulates around the herd.
And the closer you get to the center doing what everybody else does, the higher your credit score.
And then when you get to the farther back, to the outer circles or on the edge of what society doesn't want you to believe or you break out of the circle, your credit score drops like a rock and you're all done.
This is a mechanism of control.
And if you look at Orwellian concepts such as 1984, where they break the language down and replace words that have positive or negative connotations or ethical connotations with non-ethical connotations, You know, what used to be being a hooker is now a prostitute, who is now a call girl, is now an escort, which is now a lady of the night.
Whatever you call it, there is a degradation that's been happening in our language as a result Of our cell phones, the media, and the internet that are pouring in to our young people's minds.
Oh, the cartoons these days are absolute, unbounded insanity!
With the transgenderism and the grief fixes and the this and oh!
Insanity!
Insanity!
Bring back philosophy.
Go back to classical educations and maybe we can break this beast.
But for those of you parents that aren't bothering with the basics and you're letting the television mold your children, shame on you.
Shame on you.
You are building to the fact that your child is gonna have a very hard time competing out there with a 3,500 word vocabulary.
Even if he's in a trade, he can always move up through to the top of the trade if he can think.
And there's a lot of money to be made, tradesmen, that can think in a straight line.
We have to go back to classical education.
Please, Jim.
Please.
I'm begging you.
You've taught logic.
Bring back philosophy.
Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful, Brian.
Wonderful.
Meanwhile, we want to hear from you.
Send fan mail to live, needtoknowatgmail.com.
Live, needtoknowatgmail.com.
Here we have, Sophia sent me the following article on abandoned houses.
Here's a link I hope you can access.
No longer can download, but it appears the archives are available.
If you can't find the article, I'll find another way.
I'm wondering if city and state governments will be giving the abandoned houses to the migrants.
According to the Census Bureau, there are as many as 14.6 million vacant housing units in the United States.
The problem of blighted or vacant properties in places like Philadelphia or Rochester, New York or Gary, Indiana has reached epidemic levels, according to a report from the Lincoln Institute of Land Policy and the Center for Community Progress.
But even in, say, San Francisco, A city plagued by a severe housing shortage.
There are over 60,000 vacant units, 13 times the number of people thought to be sleeping on the streets.
Across the country, experts believe there to be hundreds of thousands of vacant properties owned by city and state governments.
Final thoughts.
Yours, Owen.
Yeah, this doesn't relate to really what we discussed today, but me and my family, we just moved.
My family, meaning me and my wife.
We moved from Michigan all the way to New York, packed into U-Haul, and I've had, you know, moving into the house, moving into where we're going to be living for the next, you know, I don't even know how many years, a long time.
We're going to be here for 20, 30 years probably.
And that's, that's a great, it's a really weird feeling.
You know, I'm 23 years old and so I'm, you know, getting a chance to learn what it's like to be a married man, you know, in a house and all of that responsibility.
What I want to, what I want to say is to people who, if we have any young people listening, You know, one of the things that I really, really encourage you to do is to get married, because, you know, my life before I was married was, is completely different in the way that I, the considerations that I make now, you know, and the way that I live my life now, it's for the better, because you're living for
Somebody else, and you're, you know, you're taking the time to consider somebody else's thoughts, feelings, and their opinions into account.
It really transforms you, you know, it's a fundamental transformation that you have to make.
It's a biblical transformation that you make into one flesh.
One of the things that's being attacked really hard right now is marriage, and that's for a very specific reason.
I think the satanic agenda, one of the things it wants to do and seeks to do is rid The world of family stability, familial stability, where our values, where the gospel passes down.
That's where these good things pass down.
That's where I learned them.
That's where you guys learned them, you know?
And that needs to be restored.
And so a restoration in marriage, a restoration in family is really what we need in this country.
That's one of the things that I think we need to be focusing on more, which is establishing A world in which marriage is specific.
There is not two definitions for marriage.
There's one definition for marriage and it's between a man and a woman.
And that's a sacred bond, a sacred thing that I think needs to be fought for.
One of the biggest One of the biggest losses, I think, was the gay marriage loss when gay marriage came into being.
It was an attack against marriage.
It was an attack against family stability and family unity.
And I think that going forward, one of the things that people in my generation need to start doing is considering what they want for their life.
Do you want to live for yourself or do you want to live for others?
Do you want to live for others that you love?
Very, very thoughtful.
Brian, yours.
Sign up for a romantic literature course at your local community college or whatever you're going to go.
Look, you can learn a lot from the old philosophers.
There's so much to know, so much to understand, so much our lives and our minds can be enlightened with the old literatures.
The same ones that originated and made America what it is today.
These things are dying.
Put your kids in these classes.
Teach them.
Bring these books out.
Shut off the television.
Oh, shut off the television!
Seriously, what channel are you going to watch?
I mean, like, there is nothing on television except for mindless, blathering garbage.
Fox News has become a...
Joke of it is so obviously just oppositional thought to the CNN argument and not strong independent thought anymore.
They got rid of all the artists that would or all the people that would go out and say anything actually unique or thought worthy and they replaced them with good looking talking heads that can Sew together sentences in complex structures that sound very appealing and roll off very nicely with their heads moving back and forward and the chyrons moving, putting you, mesmerizing you, teaching, shutting your brain down and getting you to back into the couch.
Seriously, go back and open up a book.
Read one of Dr. Fetzer's books.
I can't say how much I appreciate what Owen and Brian are contributing here because it's personal, but it's principled.
It has such amount of substance and it's utterly sincere.
Just a couple of thoughts.
A friend of mine with whom I do these new JFK Show just got back from Italy told me everyone in Italy was on their cell phone.
Everyone in Italy was on their cell phone!
I think cell phones may turn out to be the scourge of humanity, because they make us insular.
We're talking only with our friends, we're not interacting with the world around us, with other people.
Where we could learn so much more, we could make connections, we could care about being a human being again.
I spent this morning Shopping for a weapon for self-defense because the migrants are pouring across the border.
The Biden admin is stocked up on around $4 billion worth of weapons, which they've stockpiled for this migrant army.
So it wouldn't be obvious, coming across the Rio Grande, that's why they're here.
But that's why they're here.
And they've given them cell phones.
They've given them their own phones so they can communicate and coordinate, tell them where to go to the weapons and raise havoc in America.
I believe they have promised them homes of their own.
They're going to come into our neighborhood.
In fact, I was motivated by thinking about migrants pouring into my neighborhood.
And what I could do to respond to defend my own home, my own family.
I think the situation is just about as grim as it could possibly be.
It's been a long time in the making.
Brian's absolutely right about the importance of being able to think things through, getting an education, the classics.
We move our students forward on a social basis.
We don't care if they can read or write.
Much less do elementary myth about tech.
It's just because we don't want to hurt their feelings.
Well, to hell with that.
We can't have a civilized society without hurting a lot of feelings.
When political correctness was introduced, that was a new standard.
You couldn't say anything that anyone would find offensive.
Well, that's the absolute antithesis of freedom of thought, freedom of speech.
You can say any damn thing you want, with very few exceptions, that might cause chaos and harm to others, such as calling fire in a crowded theater, unless there actually were one.
We have to return to unfettered freedom of thought.
It was a tiny step in the right direction when readers supported news.
Allowed my post to stand, it floored me.
I actually, when I discovered a further, when I actually put up the conversation she had with Anderson Cooper in all its glory, and they deleted it, not only protested the editing, but I also wrote a subsequent message as to why nobody gave a shit about reader-supported news, because it only represents a left wing, and there's no honest and open discussion, and maybe if they allow honest and open discussion, They might find they're not having to shut their doors.
And to my astonishment, the editor actually apologized and said they're having problems with this quiz, which is the method why they post.
I don't know.
It's pretty late in the day.
I think we're reaching the end of American civilization.
I do believe the end of Title IV really meant America's dead.
That doesn't mean we aren't going to fight for it.
I'm prepared to do it with Brian, and I suspect Owen as well.
Our lives have very little meaning if we can't live it as free men.
So that's my proposition.
I believe in that adage, live free or die.
It may be quite a mess for quite a while, and there's no predicting how it's all going to turn out, but each of us We can do our part to keep America free if we really care about this once great nation.
And this, of course, is a reason why, in my opinion, they have vilified the one man who's been a greater unifying force in putting America first than any other.
I believe he has a future for this nation, if this nation has a future at all.
He's gonna make a difference.
We'll let you and I do what we can to.
I can't thank these guys enough, and you for being here.
