We are the digital soldiers.
It's time they run forever.
We are the digital soldiers.
We will bring the light to this field of fight.
Hi, welcome to another episode of Just Informed News.
I'm your host, Craig.
Thanks for joining me.
We have a lot to cover here today.
Hope you guys had a great yesterday, and now we're here today.
So let's get into it.
We have a lot of news to cover.
We're going to be talking first about more revelations in this FTX crypto scam, the Ponzi scheme that was being run by Sam Bankman-Fried and his girlfriend, Caroline Ellison, both of whom are directly connected to the U.S. government and their Security Exchange Commission both of whom are directly connected to the U.S. government and their Security Exchange Commission So it's interesting, at minimum, to look at who were taking all the donations and who now are going up against Trump.
Trump about to make a big announcement tonight.
We're not sure what that is.
He could be announcing that he's going to run for president in 2024, or he could be announcing that he's going to, you know, become the Speaker of the House vis-a-vis some magic that he has in store.
We don't know yet.
We're going to talk about that.
He's been tweeting out a lot of interesting things.
Well, not tweeting, but actually truthing, if you will.
Then we're going to talk about some other news stories, of course.
Right on cue, as if it was, you know, orchestrated, Russia has just...
All of a sudden started launching missiles into Poland, which is not only taking the news cycle and taking it away from the FTX money laundering scam, where we're seeing that it was essentially U.S. lawmakers calling for billions in aid to Ukraine, which Ukraine was then giving to a cryptocurrency company in the Bahamas, which was then laundering the money back to Ukraine.
Both rhinos and democrats in the United States by making political donations to the tune of tens of millions of dollars.
But...
Conveniently, we have a war breaking off.
The Russian war is going off the rails, and a NATO country has been hit by two missiles.
Even though Russia denies it, the Pentagon hasn't confirmed it yet, but U.S. intelligence officials are telling us it certainly was Putin, and it has to be dealt with.
We even have some of the conservative pundits asking for, you know, there needs to be blood, according to some of them.
We're also going to talk about some other interesting stories that the fake news doesn't want you to have access to.
So there's a lot to cover here today, and I hope you guys are ready for another great episode.

Okay, so we have a lot to cover here, guys.
We're going to get right into it.
Let's just start here with this story.
If you guys aren't aware, we're going to start here.
Bombshell report FTX balance sheet contained an investment called Trump Lose.
Yeah, no, not kidding.
FTX has collapsed one of the biggest financial scandals in the 21st century.
Bigger than Bernie Madoff, it's starting to look like it might be.
Although that was pretty big.
As reported by the Gateway Pundit, tens of billions of dollars going to Ukraine were actually laundered back to the U.S. Corrupt Democrats and elites using FTX cryptocurrency in the Financial Times has now been able to obtain a balance sheet from FTX, and its contents are pretty dark.
The balance sheet revealed it had only $900 million of assets it could easily sell, Billion, billion with a B, of liabilities.
So, with that being said, here we are.
It says, one of the most shocking revelations is that the balance sheet listed a $7 million asset called Trump Lose.
Huh.
I wonder what that could have been.
Here it is in all the spreadsheets.
It says FTX Trading's assets were $900 million liquid, $5.5 billion of less liquid assets consisting of crypto tokens at $3.2 billion of illiquid private equity investments.
There is also an obscure $7 million holding called Trump Lose.
There are no Bitcoin assets listed despite Bitcoin liabilities at $1.4 billion.
Hmm.
CEO of Citadel, Ken Griffin, has also taken a look at the FTX balance sheet and pointed out Sam Engman-Fried's Trump lose investment coupled with being the second largest Democrat donor was ugly.
Here it is.
...that all of us are worried about.
You know, on the balance sheet of FTX is a line called Trump lose.
And Sam was the second biggest donor to Democratic candidates.
I'm going to leave it to everybody else to draw their own conclusions about what you're saying here.
Right?
Those are really, really ugly facts when you see a fraud of this magnitude having played out, and you find no regulators were there to prevent it.
That's a really, really tough story.
We could talk for quite a while about FTX. Sadly, we don't have it, so I have to finish with...
Yeah, we don't have time to talk about the biggest scam in the century.
We'll just skim right over that.
No big deal.
Don't tell anyone.
And I love how they're like, sadly, there were no regulators there to see it.
And it's like, no, no, no.
Didn't you see?
The kids' parents, the parents of the people who were running the Ponzi scheme were the regulators.
We're the ones working to regulate the economy.
No, they're the fixers.
They're the gatekeepers.
They're the ones facilitating the extortion, facilitating the bribery, facilitating the money laundering operation.
That was FTX. So it's kind of fascinating when you look at all the facts as they're unraveling.
Not only were they, you know, completely unhinged leftists, but it turns out that they were actually playing both sides, it seems.
But, I mean, here's the story, right?
So not only were Democrats receiving millions of dollars from this FTX crypto scam, but on the other end, Dirty Mitch, of course, was on the take.
Mitch McConnell received $2.5 million from the crypto laundromat FTX for his Senate leadership fund.
Yep, here it is.
CEO of now bankrupt FTX admitted that FTX was nothing more than a laundromat for the Ukrainian government.
Gateway Pundit reported earlier, That now bankrupt FTX was transferring money to Ukraine and then laundering it back from Ukraine to the Democrat Party.
FTX CEO Sam Bankman-Fried donated $38 million to Democrats this year.
Mitch McConnell took funding from FTX for his Senate leadership fund.
Huh?
Says FTX donated $2.5 million to Senate leadership fund ran by Mitch McConnell.
So, it's all...
Don't look!
Everybody look away!
Everybody pretend like this isn't happening!
It's real!
It's not fake!
No, it was a real...
Organized crime here, and what you're seeing is the Hegelian dialectic, the fraud that is the concept that we are in this two-party system when it's really just a uniparty system versus everyone else.
It's the fake rhinos, or the fake Republicans, the rhinos, and the corrupt Democrats against the rest of the nation.
And it looks like this is exactly what we're seeing here, which would explain, I mean, pictures like the ones seen here in the article, We have Mitch McConnell standing arm in arm with, who is this?
Oh, I think that's Susan Collins and then Ron Johnson, if I'm not mistaken, and another congressman here.
They're all there.
Yeah.
We're all proud to stand arm-in-arm with Vladimir Zelensky.
We will stand against the evil Russians.
As long as you kick back taxpayer money to our campaign funds, then we will stand with Ukraine as much as you would like.
Here is another one.
It explains a lot.
You see them both together here.
Nancy Pelosi with Vladimir Zelensky and Mitch McConnell.
McConnell taking on MAGA with his visit to Ukraine.
As today, I just saw, right as we were starting this episode, another breaking news headline that the Biden administration is planning another round of billions of dollars to Ukraine.
So, no big deal.
Nothing to see here.
And it's amazing to me they keep telling us how Mitch McConnell is the leader because he's the leader.
Because...
Why?
Why?
Anybody want to know?
Anybody have any idea?
I mean, here's the favorability rating.
This is Mitch McConnell's favorability rating from Civics here.
This is a polling website.
He's 81% unfavorable, right?
That's where he's at as a leader.
And he's right here at about 7% favorable.
So a man who has a 7%, give or take, you know, these have margin of error, but a 7% favorability rating A man who has the 7% favorability rating is going to be in charge of the Senate once more.
And they're going to make sure that happens.
We have some stories about that coming up a little bit later here.
But before we get into that, let's get into a few more stories about this FTX Ponzi scheme and how it was being run.
Here's another one here.
Bankman Freed trying to raise fresh capital as bankruptcy lawyers reveal more than 1 million creditors.
So apparently they've been waiting for, everybody's been waiting for FTX bankruptcy docket to add anything more than merely procedural firings, filings, and certainly the so-called first day filings, which should lay out what really happened at the now bankrupt exchange hedge fund.
But the only thing We've gotten so far as this.
Just two entries in the docket for the case, which is the entire world's closely following.
And while the criminal mastermind behind FTX Bank of Freed should at least be doing everything he can to explain where the billions of client funds vaporized to, as he promised, right, because he told us today, he'll get to what happened.
But for now, let's talk about where we're at today.
At least until such time that he is finally arrested, he appears to have little desire to do the right thing.
So essentially what we're going to see here is that they've been going around asking for more money to cover this hole in their books.
So what they may do is end up buying their way out of The bankruptcy and this default that they're seeing right now by getting more investors on board.
Because that's how every good Ponzi scheme works, right?
It's like you literally take a bunch of money, you spend a bunch of money, you keep enough money to cover what you need and just hope that everybody doesn't try to take their money at the same time.
And then when people start figuring out that you don't have enough cash to cover everybody's money, then you start getting more money.
Every good Ponzi scheme in history has been ran this way, so I'm sure there's no reason for this one to be any different, as Sam Bankman is now going to be facing a trip to the United States for questioning.
Oh, yeah.
He's facing the possibility.
You know what's funny to me is that this is the possibility of a trip to the U.S., not an extradition, as Bloomberg puts it, to U.S. as Bahamian authorities have been discussing the possibility of bringing him to America for questioning over this firm's devastating implosion.
Yeah, they're just going to bring him over some friendly questioning.
Meanwhile, if it was Roger Stone, they'd have Frogman and seven SWAT teams kicking down his door at 6 a.m.
If it was Trump, they'd be raiding Mar-a-Lago with the Marines at this point.
If it was Steve Bannon, they'd have him in handcuffs.
Anybody else, you go down the list of everybody connected to Trump who's had Literal SWAT teams had their personal cell phones and other things seized from them illegally, had their attorney-client privilege violated.
All of these things, the FBI would have a SWAT team.
If this was a Republican, which it was, if it was a MAGA, let's say, crypto Ponzi scheme money laundering organization, I think we may have had executions by now.
Public, probably.
But because it's Sam Bankman Freed, who's working for the Democrats, whose parent and then his girlfriend's parent are engaged in the government and are part of this money laundering operation, nothing is happening, which is so fascinating.
Somebody over here put out a very interesting tweet that asked some very dangerous questions, right?
1991, Robert Maxwell dies in bizarre circumstances.
Looted fortune goes missing.
And Epstein signs bizarre POA over to the Ohio billionaire's estate in 1991.
The fortune surfaces in his hands.
2019, Epstein dies in bizarre circumstances just as fortune reappears within SBF's FTX. Well, nothing to see here.
I'm sure they're completely power of attorney and all that.
This is all a coincidence, okay, guys?
It is a coincidence that Robert Maxwell's fortune may have fallen into the hands of Jeffrey Epstein, who continued the honeypot blackmail extortion operation that was being run by the father of Ghislaine Maxwell, Robert Maxwell, who And then it's just a coincidence that Ghislaine Maxwell was sex trafficking underage women to power elites to blackmail them and extort them.
Except we don't know who any of those power elites were.
And Epstein was mysteriously suicided inside of his cell when the cameras just accidentally, coincidentally, went off at the exact moment he was murdered.
But in 2019, which then was the exact moment, this Sam Bankman freed came into this massive fortune in this crypto empire, which was based out of the Caribbean.
You guessed it.
Which has pedo symbols in it, which we talked about yesterday, which not only were in Sam Bankman Freed's profile picture on Twitter, where he had the boy lover symbol or the girl lover symbol inside of his, you know, one of his symbols on his shirt, shirt, but also in the symbol for the, you know, the other company that they were running, which was taking money out of the FTX hedge fund called Alameda Research Group,
where they were funneling and embezzling the funds so they could make speculative investments to enrich themselves where they were funneling and embezzling the funds so they could make speculative investments to enrich themselves further in the crypto markets using another pedo So, and not to mention, thank you for pointing that out in the chat, Scotland One Party, that Chis Lane, I believe her sister has a twin who was running Chiliad, which is one of the major FBI databases.
So all of that's a coincidence, guys.
If you don't believe, if you believe that that's not a coincidence, you're a conspiracy theorist, you're crazy, you might as well just, you know...
Whatever, go join Russia and be with Putin, because that's what you want, right?
Because if you think anything here, if you think these three being connected is in any way possible, you're a crazy conspiracy theorist, and everything is, you know...
It's all fine.
It's fine that Ghislaine Maxwell's sister was running one of the largest secure government databases in Chile through the FBI. Her name's Christine.
Thank you in the chat again.
Yeah, I completely forgot about that.
So if you think any of this is related, let me just tell you...
Go to Russia and be with Putin because that's what you are.
You're a Russian agent.
You're a subversive.
You hate America.
You probably are a racist, probably are a bigot, probably are transphobic.
You probably hate people who aren't, you know, you probably hate everyone because it's all, it's not even a coincidence.
It's just not, it's all fake.
It's all conspiracy.
These things aren't even real, okay?
So stop saying they are.
Yeah.
President Trump sharing a number of memes over on True Social right before his big announcement tonight at Mar-a-Lago.
Some of the memes here are presented as follow.
President Trump's major announcement tomorrow.
And this is him sharing these memes.
2024 White House run.
Disclosure of the storm.
Speaker of the House.
Stay tuned.
So he's sharing these.
Tomorrow, President Trump's major announcement.
Right?
Then it has this right here.
This is a meme we've been sharing.
Democrats...
Democrats back Biden.
Biden gives U.S. tax dollars in the form of military and humanitarian aid to Ukraine.
Ukraine takes those dollars and puts them in FTX, where then it's funneled back to the Democrat Party.
See how that all works?
See how your tax dollars are hard at work for you right here?
The leader of the country is in need...
The leader...
What is it?
The leader this country needs again.
Oh, yeah.
Sure.
The man legend, the next president of the United States again.
Yep.
Tomorrow, President Trump's major announcement.
What will it be?
A 2024 run?
Disclosure of the storm.
Speak of the House.
Stay tuned.
How do you launder tons of money?
Ukraine it!
I like that one.
That one's kind of clever.
January 6th, 21.
Millions of Americans stood faithfully by President Trump in protest of the stolen election.
It was stolen, yeah.
President Trump, we're not going to let this continue soon.
We will have greatness again.
We are a nation in decline.
Joe Biden, this is the side of Trump that the media doesn't want you to see.
You know, a loving grandfather.
The greatest president.
Yeah, I agree.
He's probably one of the best in the country's history.
You know, all things aside...
When you are wronged repeatedly, the worst thing you can do is continue fighting back, or taking it, fight back.
When you attack Trump, you attack we the people, and so on.
You can see there's a number of these tweets.
I'm not going to show you every single one, except I'll show you every one that's on the website here.
So you get the idea.
Trump's tweeting out all these things, telling us it's going to be a big announcement.
We're not sure exactly what it is.
Is it going to be him announcing that he's been working with Republicans to take over the Speaker of the House position?
I don't know, but I do know that's probably not likely only because...
It's been made very clear that Democrats will vote.
Basically, Democrats are making alliances already with the RINOs to say that they'll vote in who they want to vote in, not people that Trump wants, which is insane.
But it's like if you could have scripted it better for the deep state unit party to expose itself any more than having them literally coming out now.
And we're going to get into stories in a second about them saying we're going to work together with the Democrats and the Republicans to get rid of all those MAGA Republicans.
You're like, wait, what?
OK, well.
So with that, and then on top of all that, you know, look, you guys can say what you want about DeSantis, Trump, and all that stuff, but I've already said that my opinion is that Trump is the better of the two, at least for now, and we should give another chance.
I do believe that he made a big mistake with the vaccines.
He made a big mistake with warp speed and all that, but I think at the same time, he was put between a rock and a hard place, and like a lot of people have said, they say 100% that...
Trump was basically seeing that we were going to be in lockdown permanently because they launched an attack.
What's amazing to me is how they've launched this virus on us as an attack, whether real or imagined, the COVID hoax, whatever it is.
They launched it on us.
And then they expect us to change our whole lives based on, you know, this fake virus, which has literally worked as mind control for people today.
Like today, I happened to be at a doctor's office today, and it's just insane.
And we're going to talk about this in a later part of the episode, but it's insane the level of cultism that is built around this, you know, COVID-19 nightmare that we're all living in.
But it's only going to get worse.
Apparently, they're already talking about bringing in, and there are.
They're not talking about it anymore.
They are.
They're bringing in programmable dollars.
Yep, New York Fed and 12 banking giants launching a digital dollar test.
Yep.
So now, it's almost as if this crypto collapse is sucking the air out of the room away from them doing this because it's funny how Sometimes I feel like they crash these programs, these money laundering operations, and all these other operations to distract from other things.
And why wouldn't they do that here?
Never let a good crisis go to waste, or a market crash for that matter.
With equity and bond markets stuck in brutal bear markets and providing a sufficient distraction to what is happening, behind the scenes the Fed and a group of banks have quietly We're good to go.
Participants announced on Tuesday.
So guess what?
When they get rid of physical cash is when you know that the mark of the beast is here and it's not even that.
It's the full and total societal control that they want.
They want to control you and not have you be able to take your money and hold it Personally, your money has to be controlled by a central authority who then can restrict your access to your money based on your compliance with the ESG, which is the Environmental Social Guidance Scores or whatever, and the psychosis of the day is, right?
And in that sense, that's what they want.
But it says here, programmable U.S. dollars may be necessary.
It says here further down in the article, to support new business models and provide a foundation of much-needed innovations in financial settlements and infrastructure.
Going on, it says, projects like this that focus on digitization of central bank money and individual bank deposits could be expanded to take a broader view of the opportunity.
Oh, wow.
There's...
There's no reason to panic.
That was what it was all about because people were refusing to pay their mortgages because the projects were becoming basically bankrupted by the fact that people wanted to remove their currency to take their dollars out of the banks.
And then China basically said, you can't take your money out of the bank.
You can't.
So they stopped paying their mortgages.
It was a whole nightmare.
But that's the kind of control they want over your money.
They want to be able to freeze your assets.
So you can't go to the store and buy groceries if you say something bad about Joe Biden, his creepy pedophile history and his corrupt degenerate past, or his treasonous betrayal of the United States of America by taking bribes from our adversaries.
Yeah.
And they're already rolling out the AI censorship of speech, not just here in America, but now they're going full scale in Canada as per an announcement here made by Justin Trudeau not too long ago.
Let's watch.
For example, Canada is leading on the responsible development and use of artificial intelligence.
We're also undertaking major legislative reforms that will strengthen privacy protections for Canadians, including specific provisions to protect children.
See, while always ensuring and defending free speech, we must make it clear that it cannot be okay To bully and attack people online.
Governments and especially big technology companies need to safeguard people's data and privacy and address online harassment and violence to ensure trust in technology.
So now you can't bully people online, which is...
I mean, that's insane.
It's antithetical to everything free speech stands for, especially the American ideal of free speech as it's enshrined in the Bill of Rights.
But beyond that, and of course this is Canada, so it's a different system altogether, I understand that.
But it should not be lost on anyone here that when they're talking about having a programmable digital currency from the central bank authority, and then they are launching programs in other countries like On Our Border, That are taking AI systems and applying it to censorship to prevent bullying.
You've got to think to yourself, I don't think it's about bullying and I don't think it's about giving opportunities to new initiatives for programmable dollars.
It's about stopping us from speaking out against their tyrannical rule.
It's about stopping us from having the freedom to speak our mind not only out against this psychotic...
You know, in a lot of ways, satanic and demonic system that is ever encroaching upon not only our freedom, but our spiritual freedom, our religious liberty that we enjoy in the West, as it were, that they don't enjoy in other countries like China.
But on top of that, beyond that, it's the encroachment on our personal liberty to protest against these tyrants like Justin Trudeau, these unaccountable tyrants.
They win elections by stealing them.
There is no system of fair governance in this nation anymore, not in the United States, not in Canada, not anywhere, because they don't follow the rules.
There's two tiers of justice.
They have one set of rules they play by.
We have another set of rules we play by.
And we're always at a disadvantage by design.
By design.
And that's just the truth.
So, you know, do what you will with that.
So with that, I want to say thank you and welcome everybody to the show here.

So come give me a follow over here, guys.
I'd love to have a conversation with you guys outside the channel.
Let's get right back into it, though.
So with that, you know, we're going to go into this story coming out of Ukraine.
Strikes putting Ukraine into darkness.
Missiles crossing into Poland.
Yep, this is the story here.
It's weird that a day after Ukraine finally announced a willingness to seek peace talks, Russia bombed NATO member Poland with missiles.
Isn't that strange?
So just yesterday, Vladimir Zelensky, you know, coked up out of his mind, albeit, was saying that, you know, it's time for peace.
We should start talking for peace, which is another interesting coincidence that...
Want to hear this?
You want to hear the best coincidence of all?
Now, get ready, because if you believe this, you're a conspiracy theorist, and you should probably, you know, deport yourself to Russia.
But this is the funniest coincidence of all, that you have...
Basically, only a few days after the world's largest crypto Ponzi scheme scam money laundering operation that was taking U.S. taxpayer dollars that were given to Ukraine and then laundering them through the Caribbean back into U.S. political coffers into the politicians' campaign funds like the Democrats and the Rhino Republicans, that a day after that, you have Ukraine, or a couple days after that, Ukraine's come out and said they want peace all of a sudden.
Huh?
That's interesting.
That was pretty quick.
But then on top of that, as soon as they say they want peace, Russia, for no reason at all, launches two missiles into Poland, thereby striking against NATO and then escalating the conflict there even further.
I mean, don't you guys see?
If you don't believe that that's all a coincidence, you know what?
You might be better off in Russia.
You might want to just start moving now.
But Russia's already come out against the, they reject the allegations of missile attack on Poland, slamming it as a deliberate provocation.
They say, deliberate provocation and is denying that its forces have aimed at any missiles near Ukraine-Poland border.
And so, because we have them coming out and saying that The Warhawks and the U.S. intelligence agencies officials are saying that this is a provocation and we will defend NATO to every inch we can.
So just think of the sequence of events here.
The money laundering operation that was being run through the Caribbean, that was taking millions of dollars of taxpayer money, that's being funneled out of our government from Joe Biden, the corrupt rhino Republicans, the corrupt Democrats, to Ukraine, is coming into America through the Bahamian cryptocurrency Ponzi scheme.
As soon as that's uncovered, Ukraine says now they want peace, and then almost as soon as that happens, Russia for no reason launches missiles into Poland.
I mean, totally makes sense, guys.
But I mean, you know, this is the kind of response we get from the conservative establishment here.
One of those being Jack Posobiec, who, you know, I like him in certain ways.
He has a lot of good takes on a lot of things.
I'm not saying this is, you know, but I mean, this is like a little over the edge here.
Here's the take we have from the Polish reporter, Jack Posobiec.
If this was a deliberate attack on the sovereign territory of Poland, it must be repaid in blood!
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!
That escalated quickly!
Like, wait...
We've got to repay in blood?
Wait, I'm sorry.
When did Poland become a member of the United States?
And everybody goes, well, it's NATO, and we have to fight to protect NATO, because that's what we're in.
We're in this treaty to protect NATO. It's like, we don't even know if Russia actually launched these missiles, and this guy's already calling for blood revenge.
So I'm a little bit more skeptical.
And these are the same people, which I think is hilarious.
That tell us, we've got to stop the endless wars.
We've got to stop the needless bloodshed.
We've got to stop all this fighting.
And these are the same people now who are saying, if this was an attack on Poland, I want blood!
And you're like, whoa, whoa, dude, calm down.
Calm down, okay?
We don't even know where the missile came from.
It could have been Ukraine shooting a missile there as a false fight.
It could have been anything.
It could have been Poland having an explosion by accident.
But, yeah, they're already calling for blood, so I'm sure that's not going to start World War III. U.S. telling Ukraine talks don't need to happen after Milley's diplomacy push.
Of course, right?
Milley said last week that Russia and Ukraine might recognize that victory is maybe not achievable through military means, and therefore you need to turn to other means.
He expects fighting will slow down the winter.
The moment for peace talks could be ceased.
See?
So Mark Milley's come out and said, we don't need...
We don't need to have Ukraine talking to Russia.
That'll just naturally happen, guys.
Just naturally.
It's going to naturally come to peace because Mark Milley says so.
Because the whole thing's planned.
No, it's not.
But it is interesting to see these events as they occur and people think, hmm, I wonder if all of this is interconnected.
I don't know.
But if you say that, you're a crazy conspiracy theorist.
So...
You guys tell me in the comments, what do you think is happening with all of this?
Do you think that it's maybe, is it a coincidence that, you know, the same, almost like at the same time we have the money laundering operation being exposed in the Bahamas, taking money from Ukraine, taxpayer dollars from the United States, to funnel it back into U.S. coffers that then Ukraine calls for peace, but then all of a sudden Russia launches missiles into Poland for no reason whatsoever, on like some border town that is like meaningless?
I don't know.
I don't know, guys.
I feel like this is just getting to the point where it all just sounds a little fishy to me, but I want to hear your thoughts.
Please tell me your full explanation of what you think down in the comments below.
Okay.
Here we are.
General Flynn warning of an FBI perjury trap for Trump.
Well, of course, like they tried to set him up.
Yeah, if you read through this article, it just talks about how a grand jury is investigating whether Trump and his aides conspired to conceal the documents from agents and made false statements when certifying they produced all of them.
Of course!
I mean, how many times are we going to hear this same story?
And this is why people get burnt out on it, but that's what they depend on, right?
See, because it's a war of attrition for them.
You know, the war of attrition is essentially, they've poisoned the well to the point, and they're slowly doing it.
They're not doing it all at once.
They're doing it little by little by little to say, oh, well, if you support Trump, you You're this, you're that.
Trump did this, Trump did that.
Everything gets disproven, but the more they work it, the more they chip away at people that follow him.
And this is all coordinated.
This is on the left and the right.
This is not coming from just the deep state.
It is coming from the uniparty deep state, which encompasses both Democrats and Republicans, who...
Are in the club that we ain't in and want to keep power and they'll do anything to keep it, which includes sacrificing Trump, setting him up for crimes he never committed, putting him in perjury traps like they did to General Flynn, because that's how this whole system, this machine works.
And I just think for everybody to know it, it's good to know.
Alright, so in another story here, Let's go ahead and read this.
Conservatives are warning McCarthy, you don't have the votes for Speaker.
Representative McCarthy is expected to secure the GOP nomination for Speaker in Tuesday's leadership elections, but conservatives say he can't get the votes needed on the House floor without their help.
Well, he's made it through the first round of voting today, but he didn't make it out very well.
I think he got 188 votes, so it looks like there's a lot of people.
188 to, what, 31 or something like that was the vote tally for today's vote on Kevin McCarthy.
But liberals are already coming out with crazy ideas, saying that Liz Cheney should be the Speaker of the House, and this is what Jennifer Rubin from the Washington Post is completely sold on.
So you know it's good, right?
So they keep talking about Trump going and becoming Speaker of the House.
Now they're floating Liz Cheney to become Speaker of the House.
And the real scary thing is there's enough establishment, rhino Republicans, and of course the Democrats who hate Trump and hate America for the most part, not all, most, I'd say the majority, overwhelming majority, And they are willing to do anything to stop him.
And that includes working together with the Republicans to make sure anybody but Trump is in power.
And that's just the establishment circling the wagons around its own.
So speaking of that, the establishment doesn't like when you report on anything that might be remotely true.
And especially in this case, NBC correspondent Miguel Al-Maguirre suspended after a viral report on Paul Pelosi and David DePape.
He's the one who reported...
That DePape and them were struggling and basically that Paul Pelosi didn't flee and all this other stuff.
A lot of the reporting that was initially reported from the NBC News, now he's been attacked by the establishment that's backed by Nancy Pelosi, so that's an interesting story.
Another one here, absolutely fraudulent ballot drop makes Katie Hobbs Arizona governor.
Yes, they were calling it for Arizona for Katie Hobbs, which...
I mean, again, nothing to see here, guys.
A woman who is both running the state election, refused to debate her opponent, and has been engaged in all kinds of voter fraud and voter fraud activities, ballot harvesting, etc.
It's totally normal that, you know, it took a week to count the votes, and that just so happens that after a week of vote counting, that they just all came in in just the slightest margin for Katie Hobbs, who, you know, did...
Everything she could and was propped up by the establishment in every way you could ever imagine to steal that election, which I don't even live in Arizona, and I feel like I've been robbed.
I think the whole country was robbed of a great Republican governor in Carrie Lake, and I hope that she fights this in every way she can.
Because, mark my words, they're installing their Republican puppets in these states that they're planning to steal again in 2024.
Arizona, Michigan, all the way down the line.
The rest of the states where they had these Republicans win, or excuse me, Democrats win by these calculated margins that just seem so unbelievable.
On another story, though, remember when Chuck Schumer told us that the intelligence community has six ways from Sunday to get back at you if you ever cross them?
Referring to Donald Trump and how because he was democratically elected that somehow that incensed the intelligence services and that they were going to underhandedly attack him, which ended up being true as they framed him for crimes he never committed and planted evidence illegally against him and then tried to use that to get him impeached.
As if that never happened, but it did.
Schumer here is saying that he's meeting with Mitch McConnell and he's going to push for ditching the MAGA Republicans.
Well, there you go, guys.
So they stole the governorship in a lot of states.
They stole the elections for Senate.
Now that we're maybe going to get the House of Representatives, of course we have the Senate leaders working together with the other fake rhinos to make sure that we get rid of all those MAGA people.
So...
I don't know.
Somebody told me, and I know this is a good source in the thing talking about Russia, that they were telling NATO to stop reporting lies or that will lead to nuclear war.
Well, just another thing to look forward to, guys.
Speaking of rhino fraud traders, here's Mike Pence.
Let's watch.
Members were barricaded inside the House chamber.
And in the middle of it all, you can see that the president has tweeted.
2.24 p.m., the president tweets, Mike Pence didn't have the courage to do what should have been done.
Oh, so much drama.
It's so dramatic.
Is he going to cry?
Let me just ask you, is it me or is this more like, this is more like some dramatic TV show in like, this is like some therapy session.
It's like, this is like, what do they call it?
I think it's like a struggle session in the old Mao days, right?
Where they would test people's loyalty to the party.
This is essentially like, this is insane.
They're sitting here, like, look at him.
He's like about to cry.
It's like he's sitting with his therapist.
He's like, it didn't hurt me.
It didn't hurt my feelings when he said that.
I just wanted to do the right thing for the country because I'm a good, good Republican.
Here, watch again.
It angered me.
It angered me.
But I turned to my daughter who was standing nearby.
And I said, it doesn't take courage to break the law.
It takes courage to uphold the law.
I mean, the President's words were reckless.
Oh my gosh.
It's clear he decided to be part of the problem.
Oh my gosh.
And people eat this stuff up, guys.
Our country is full of low information.
I don't want to say low IQ because I'm sure a lot of these people are very intelligent, but they just don't know.
They don't know that this is all theater.
They don't know that these are crocodile tears.
They don't know that this is all scripted, that this is all, that he was coached by a team of people on exactly what to say.
And it only took him two years to come out with this interview where he looks like he's about to cry about something that meant nothing.
It was, oh, the insurrection and all insurrections.
It's like, well, what about F. Jeffrey Epstein raping children on his island and people that haven't been arrested for that yet?
You know, we got the QAnon shaman, the guy who wore a buffalo hat and a spear in the Capitol Hill.
He's going to jail for who knows 20 years, who knows how long.
But Mike Pence is sitting here crying.
Bill Clinton went to Epstein Island 26 times.
Why are people crying about that?
How about we get some, like, justice there?
Just saying Maxwell was sentenced to prison for sex trafficking people to no one.
And this guy!
And this guy!
This guy's like crying!
He's having like a therapy session on ABC News after he was coached by a team of publicists on what's going to...
And after they did enough testing of audiences to see what would effectively emote the outcome...
Draw out the emotional response that they need to manipulate people's minds.
It's like, I don't get how people live in this world.
Oh, man.
These people are just a joke.
The whole system's a joke at this point.
But, yeah, let's just go through some more stories here.
An interesting story here.
Speaking of people who...
Greg Abbott here making an interesting tweet saying that he invoked the invasion clauses of the U.S. and Texas constitutions and has fully authorized Texas to take unprecedented measures to defend our state against an invasion, which actually I'm glad that he's doing this.
He says using constitutional authority and other authorization and executive orders to keep our state and country safe.
Deploying National Guard, deploying the Texas Department of Public Safety, building a border wall, deploying gunboats to secure the border, designate Mexican drug cartels as foreign terrorist organizations, enter into a compact with other states to secure the border, enter into agreements with foreign powers to enhance border security, and provide resources for border countries to increase their efforts to respond to the border invasion.
Now, I'm not a big fan of Greg Abbott.
I've made that very clear in the past, but...
If you make moves like this, you may start to win more people over onto your side because this is what is funny that this is exactly what Carrie Lake basically ran on doing And Governor Abbott has, of course, adopted that agenda, and now he's done it himself.
So, of course, this is a little bit, you know, some people might say this is a little bit late, but I would say that better late than never, right?
I mean, of course it's late, but better late than never, so...
FTX slush fund bankrolled fake studies to hide COVID therapeutics.
So this is an interesting story that goes into the connections between this crypto Ponzi scheme scam that was taking the taxpayer dollars from America that were being given to Ukraine that were funneled into there to be funneled back into U.S. politicians' bank accounts That this organization was also funding studies to undermine the therapeutic medications ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine.
So...
Is this a connection to, you know, what we talked about before about, you know, Robert Maxwell's fortune mysteriously disappearing as Jeffrey Epstein came into a massive fortune in the Caribbean, and then Jeffrey Epstein being murdered, and then his fortune mysteriously seemingly finding its way into the hands of a random Democrat sycophant freedman, or no, bankman, I should say, who lives in the Bahamas and the Caribbean?
And is it a part of some intelligence services to undermine certain things?
I don't know!
But this is the world we live in here today.
NBC News advising parents to keep kids away from unvaccinated individuals.
And I just see this stuff, and it drives me crazy because somebody put it best here in this tweet.
They said, Anger toward the unvaccinated is growing.
It is a very human thing to persecute those who had the strength to refuse something that later turned out to be dodgy.
The jealousy of the vaccinated is manifesting as hate.
Now, like I said, I have an anecdotal story, but today I had to do a routine doctor visit, and it was terrible.
And you guys tell me if this is the same way in your state because I'm out here in communist California and let me tell you what happened to me.
I refused to wear the mask, right?
So I went in the doctor's office and I'm waiting to do my thing and I go to go in to do the test with the doctor, right?
And I'm there and...
I kid you not, the nurse looks at me without the mask, and they all have masks on inside there, except half of them have it down below their nose, half of them have it just around their chin.
They're not really wearing it, but they're wearing it, right?
And I'm not.
And she's like, here's a mask.
You've got to wear this.
And I said, no, I don't wear a mask.
So then I start to tell them why I don't wear a mask.
I'm like, I don't want to breathe in microplastics.
It will give you cancer.
I said, did you know, have you seen those commercials where, you know...
It says, like, do you or a family member, have you been affected by asbestos?
And if so, call this law firm and you can be entitled to a settlement.
I'm like, that's going to be you guys 20 years, 10 years from now, 20 years from now when you get cancer and all kinds of stuff and wearing these masks all day and all types of damage you're doing to your body.
So I tell them, I'm not going to wear it, right?
And so, essentially, they just were like, oh, he's too difficult, just whatever, and they took me in the room.
So, I went in the room and I'm doing this test, and all of a sudden, the doctor comes in, the guy, I guess, who runs the clinic, right, or whatever, and he looks at me and he's like, you have to put on the mask or I'm kicking you out.
And I was like, wait, what?
And he's like, you have to put on the mask or I'm kicking you out.
And I'm like, are you kidding?
I'm like, I'm here for, you know, I'm here for a routine checkup and I'm not going to wear the mask.
Like, it's crazy.
I don't wear a mask.
Anyway, long story short, they were like, "Oh, well, we came to this agreement that if I just put the mask on over my mouth, not my nose, which is insane, that he wouldn't kick me out, right?
He wouldn't kick me out of the clinic." And later I was talking to him and he said he agreed with me that he didn't.
And in California, you're not supposed to make people wear masks, but he agreed with me when he said, he was like, "Well, I agree with you that you shouldn't have to wear the But he basically explained to me that because the nurse said she wasn't comfortable with me being there without a mask, that she could sue him, and that because of that, he had to force me to wear a mask.
So I had some brainwashed moron, dumb, dumb, dumbbell nurse.
You know, God bless her.
I don't mean any wishing ill will on them.
I think, you know, she was just being, she's probably been brainwashed by the news or whatever.
And she tells me, so because she felt uncomfortable with me not wearing a mask, I had to wear a mask, but just over my mouth, which doesn't do anything anyway, right?
Right.
Just to appease her so that she doesn't sue him, the doctor, and it's like a nightmare.
And then he told me, he's like, I'm going to call your insurance and I'm going to kick you out.
You're not going to be allowed to come back.
And I was like, dude, just give me a stupid mask.
I don't care at this point.
Because...
I don't want to go find a whole other doctor and do a whole other thing because I hate doctors anyway and I hate doing the whole doctor dance.
You guys know what that is.
But out here in California, that's how deep, and it's anecdotal, but that's how deep the cult is.
And I don't know if it's like that in other states.
I hope it's not.
But I can't believe we're three years out and people are still wearing masks as if we're in the middle of some freaking pandemic.
But that's my story.
I had to get that off my chest because it was just the worst experience ever.
I mean, could you imagine being yelled at by people to force you to do something?
I kept thinking to myself, what about this guy?
What about the oath, do no harm?
What about their Hippocratic oath?
What is happening here?
Yeah, I don't know.
It's sad.
But...
With that being said, let's go ahead and do our God's Grace is Greater segment, which we do every episode, where we talk about God's grace now is truly greater.
And today, we're going to be making this dive into Mark, the middle of Mark, chapter 9, verse 14.
We're talking about the power of faith over a demon.
Yesterday, we left off with the transfiguration, which was a powerful portion of the chapter.
about Jesus and his transformation in front of his disciples that We ended up with God saying that that was his son and confirming that he was the son of God and the Messiah.
But now we're kind of just finishing that.
Now we're going into this exchange between Jesus and him overcoming a demon and how the power of faith was able to help in places where other people don't have faith.
Now this whole story here is about faith, right?
This is about faith.
This is about what it means to have faith in God and what that can lead to and what that means.
So I'm going to go ahead and tell you right now that this is a powerful set of scriptures, so let's go ahead and read it.
It says here...
When they came to the disciples, they saw a large crowd around them and scribes disputing with them.
All of a sudden, when the whole crowd saw him, they were amazed and ran to greet him.
Then he asked them, What are you arguing with them about?
Out of the crowd, one man answered him, Teacher, I brought my son to you.
He has a spirit that makes him unable to speak.
Wherever it seizes him, it throws him down and he foams at the mouth, grinds his teeth and becomes rigid.
So I asked your disciples to drive it out, but they couldn't.
He replied to them, You unbelieving generation, how long will I be with you?
How long must I put up with you?
Bring him to me.
So they brought him to him.
When the Spirit saw him, it immediately convulsed the boy, and he fell to the ground and rolled around, foaming at the mouth.
How long has this been happening to him?
Jesus asked his father.
From childhood, he said.
And many times it has thrown him into a fire or water to destroy him.
But if you can do anything, have compassion on us and help us.
Then Jesus said to him, If you can...
Everything is possible to the one who believes.
Immediately the father of the boy cried out, I do believe.
Help my unbelief.
When Jesus saw that a crowd was rapidly coming together, he rebuked the unclean spirit, saying to it, You mutant deaf spirit, I command you, come out of him and never enter him again.
Then it came out shrieking and convulsing him violently.
The boy became like a corpse, so that many said he's dead, but Jesus, taking him by the hand, raised him and he stood up.
After he went into a house, his disciples asked him privately, Why couldn't we drive it out?
And he told them, this kind can come out by nothing but prayer and fasting.
Wow.
So, this is an interesting verse, and I think there's a lot we can take away from it.
And to me, I read through this, and I'm basically seeing...
A story about faith.
Because this is Jesus now.
He's just come back from the transfiguration, right?
And he's essentially had this epiphanal moment with not only God and Elijah and Moses, but his disciples, Peter, James, and John.
And they've basically confirmed he is the, you know, son of God, the Messiah through that.
But he comes down to this chaos, right?
It's complete chaos.
He sees people arguing with his disciples and there's a crowd and there's scribes there and it's just everybody's yelling at everybody.
And he finally walks right up to the crowd and says, what is everybody arguing about here?
And they essentially find a man with a son who tells Jesus that his son is very sick, ill with seizures and foaming at the mouth and these terrible afflictions that he says are caused by a demon.
And he tells Jesus that his disciples tried to drive out the demon but couldn't, right?
So Jesus first rebukes them.
He says, you unbelieving generation, how long will I be with you?
You guys don't even realize I'm not going to be here that much longer, at least not in the physical form, so you have to be able to do this stuff without me.
That's what I read Jesus kind of saying there.
He says, how long must I put up with you?
And then he says, bring them to me.
And when the spirit saw the demon that was inside of the boy saw Jesus, it started convulsing him.
And Jesus asks, how long has this been happening?
And the father says, from childhood.
And many times it's tried to hurt him.
And then the father says something interesting.
He says, have compassion on us and help us.
But he says, but if you can do anything...
So the father's already doubting because the disciples couldn't drive out the spirit.
And Jesus is kind of taking it back.
He goes, if you can?
He's like, don't you understand who I am kind of thing?
But he says everything is possible to the one who believes.
Now what's that?
Jesus is teaching us how faith can help us overcome all things.
Even the afflictions that we think can't be overcome by faith and faith alone.
Faith can overcome those things.
So Jesus essentially says to the Spirit to leave and never come back.
But only if after the Father says these words to him...
He says, immediately after Jesus rebukes him, he says, I do believe, help my unbelief.
And aren't we all like that sometimes?
Doesn't that feel like how we all can be from time to time?
Maybe all the time, maybe sometimes, maybe, who knows?
But I know that I have made that prayer now many times to God, help my unbelief.
Because even if you believe and you've given all your heart to Jesus, as human, we're going to sin.
We're going to be sinful.
We're going to fall.
We're going to stumble.
And in those moments, what do we do?
We don't just say, give up, and say, oh, I messed up.
I guess it's all over.
We do what the Father did for His Son in this amazing display.
He says, I believe you cry out in faith saying you believe, and you ask God to help you get rid of your unbelief.
Now Jesus, seeing, assumedly, the sincerity of the Father in his belief, he rebuked the Spirit and cleansed the child.
And the Spirit came out, you know, shrieking, and the boy looked like he was dead, and Jesus raised him up, and he just walked right inside, and everything went well.
But then there's an interesting interaction after that.
The disciples asked him privately, why couldn't we drive it out?
And Jesus says this important phrase here.
He says these important words.
He says this kind can come out by nothing but prayer.
And in other interpretations, prayer and fasting.
So what does that tell us?
That tells us that maybe it's not just about faith.
Faith is an integral part of how we can heal ourselves and overcome affliction and find salvation through Christ, right?
That is a part of it, but it's by God's grace.
It's not necessarily just by our works.
It's by God's grace and our faith in Jesus.
But then Jesus tells us that there are certain things that we need prayer for.
And isn't that powerful?
Isn't that funny how sometimes people think, oh, maybe I can just overcome it if I will it and if I want it.
Well, maybe.
But sometimes, maybe, it's going to require you to put down everything and go to God in prayer and ask Him directly.
And I think that's what this story is.
This is a story of what it means to have faith and faith in prayer and what it can do for us.
Because just as the Father had...
Proclaimed his faith and said he believed and asked Jesus to help him with his unbelief.
Essentially, that was a prayer to Jesus.
He was speaking to the Messiah saying, help me.
And sometimes we have to call on God to help us through the things we're going through.
And I think in that way, we can find that Jesus will come and God can come and work wonders in our lives and do actual miracles.
Those can happen.
So...
I hope that this gives you a good idea of what this verse is talking about and what it means.
And I know that our prayers will be answered.
I don't know how.
I don't know how God works in that sense.
But I know He'll answer our prayers in whatever way He sees fit.
And His plan is good.
And we have to trust it.
Whether it means that we're going to succeed or fail in whatever happens in this world...
We have to trust that God has our best intentions at heart, and that is a part of the same faith that the Father showed toward Jesus to heal his son.
He had faith that no matter what Jesus did, it would be okay.
As he says, I do believe, help my unbelief.
Meaning, rid me of this doubt, Lord.
So with that, we're going to say a quick prayer ourselves, and then we'll wrap it up.
Lord and Heavenly Father, we give great thanks for your amazing power, the glory of your Son, our Lord.
We pray, Lord, that you will help our unbelief sometimes, Lord.
Help us overcome it.
We do believe in you, Lord.
But we know that sometimes we can fall short.
We can fall short of the things you need from us in this world.
And we pray, Lord, that with your help, through your Son, that you can help us heal not only ourselves, but help us be there for others.
Help all those out there listening who are facing any kind of affliction or adversity, or even in moments of prosperity and fortune, Lord, just be with us always, through it all.
Help us humble ourselves in the good times and humble ourselves in the bad times.
Help us remember that you are Lord above all Lords.
You are our one and only.
And Lord, we give great thanks for that.
We pray and great thanks for all you've given, all of our blessings.
And Lord, even in the pit of despair, we know we can look to you and you will help us find our next path toward victory, Lord.
So help us, Lord.
Guide us.
Strengthen us.
So we thank you most of all for our eternal salvation.
In Jesus' name, amen.
All right, guys.
