	Welcome to Bright Town Broadcast News for Friday, March 1st, 2024.
	Wow, that's amazing.
	We finish out February, which in my book means I get to gather up all the February content, all the articles, podcasts, interviews, this show, everything, and then package it up and get it processed in the data pipeline for our AI system that we're releasing at the end of this month. and then package it up and get it processed in Yes, it's going to be up to date all the way to the end of February, and then we'll do it again each month.
	But in the worst case, it'll be maybe a little over a month behind.
	So we'll have one of the only AI systems out there that's free to use, free to download, and it will be aware of world events all the way up to the end of February 2024.
	So you can sign up to download it free of charge at brighteon.ai.
	That's brighteon.ai.
	Just enter your email address there and we'll send you an alert when the model is ready for you to download.
	Now the title today is The Economic Collapse of the USA and Europe is Now Accelerating at Nightmare Speed.
	We've reached the nightmare section of the speed gauge.
	It's like 50, 100, 200, and then nightmare.
	That's where we are right now.
	I interviewed John Rubino earlier today.
	He's the founder of dollarcollapse.com, and he's got a really nice Substack page at rubino.substack.com.
	That's not the interview we're playing today, by the way.
	We're playing Roger Stone's interview.
	And then for Rubino, I'll probably broadcast that, I'm guessing Monday, but I'm not entirely sure.
	However, Rubino sounded the alarm with me about how the Fed is now very likely to not lower interest rates because of the inflation that's been kicking up.
	A lot was reported yesterday.
	Some new numbers out of January that are not that great.
	And it means that commercial real estate is going to absolutely implode.
	I recorded a special report on that issue, actually, and I think we'll go to that special report here in a minute.
	But it's all about commercial real estate and how that collapse is going to lead to the collapse of more banks, regional banks across the United States, and it will require more bailouts from the FDIC. And I recorded that before I interviewed John Rubino, and then Rubino Also confirmed those same points and added a lot more, a lot of additional points because he's the expert on the collapse of the dollar.
	I mean, he's the founder of dollarcollapse.com.
	He saw this coming.
	You can't accuse Rubino of not seeing it coming.
	He bought the domain a long time ago.
	But I have got to share some headlines with you that will just blow your mind here.
	First one from UK Daily Mail.
	Britain's cash-strapped navy may be forced to sell off its 3.5 billion pound aircraft carrier, the HMS Prince of Wales, amid funding issues.
	So, what?
	Wait a second.
	What?
	So...
	Britain has two aircraft carriers.
	It's the Prince of Wales and it's the Queen Elizabeth, I think it's called.
	Maybe it's the Queen Elizabeth II, I don't know.
	Neither one of them works.
	Nothing in the British Royal Navy actually works.
	You've probably noticed that lately when they try to launch Trident missiles.
	They just go plop into the ocean.
	They don't work.
	Nothing fires.
	When they try to sail the Queen Elizabeth, propellers don't work, right?
	So it's been in dry dock for how long?
	At one point, they actually had it out in the sea, and they tootled around for a little bit and realized that propellers don't work.
	So they brought it back in the dry dock.
	I don't know if they had to tow it, maybe with a barge.
	Can you imagine?
	Who knows?
	But now they don't have enough money.
	Think about this.
	The British Empire once ruled the world.
	The British Empire, its currency ruled the world.
	It was the dominant currency, the pound sterling.
	The British Navy ruled the seas.
	There was no one that competed with the British Navy.
	The British military occupied nations all over the world, including India, of course, at one time.
	And the city of London, the British rule, you know, the monarchy, it ran the world.
	Those days are long gone.
	The British currency is, no one uses it anymore.
	Except, you know, in the UK they use it, but outside the UK, nobody trades oil in, you know, British pounds.
	Nobody buys and sells in their currency and nobody wants their currency.
	That's coming for the dollar too, by the way.
	I'm not picking on the UK here.
	But the UK apparently has run out of money to even maintain two aircraft carriers.
	Can't even maintain two.
	Unbelievable.
	And this is a country that thinks it's going to go to war with Russia.
	Of course, France really thinks it's going to go to war with Russia because Macron has promised to put troops on the ground, I guess, French troops on the ground in Ukraine to fight Russia, which has freaked out everybody else in Europe.
	Like, no, don't say that, you know, because they don't want Russia to start nuking Paris and London because there's nothing that Europe can do to stop Russia at this point.
	Nothing.
	And certainly not the broke-down aircraft carriers of the British Royal Navy.
	So, Britain is going to have to sell one of these, you know, on eBay, perhaps.
	No, they'll probably end up selling it to India, because in India, well, India likes to buy a lot of older British equipment, and frankly, India probably can keep it running, because India still has people who can do stuff.
	But in the UK, they can't even afford it.
	No budget to keep the ships running.
	So it begs the question, doesn't it?
	How does the UK think it's going to defeat Russia in World War III when it doesn't even have a functioning aircraft carrier and it's selling them off?
	You know, for parts, maybe.
	This is crazy.
	This is like a fire sale.
	I wonder how much it costs for an aircraft carrier that was made by the British.
	I wonder, it's like, you can have it for a dollar if you can just get it to float out of here, you know?
	Is it that kind of deal?
	Just get it out of our sight, or is it going to be, I don't know, a A few million dollars?
	Hundreds of millions?
	How much do these things cost to build these days?
	Pretty sure that the Gerald R. Ford, the newest aircraft carrier class in the US, I thought one of those costs something like five billion dollars, which of course is nothing compared to what the US is sending to Ukraine.
	But anyway, hey, there's going to be an aircraft carrier for sale.
	If you are interested, you can place a bid on eBay for probably the Prince of Wales, the HMS Prince of Wales.
	And if you own it, you get to rename it.
	How about that?
	Yeah, I think I would buy it and rename it Scuttlebucket.
	The Scuttlebucket of the High Seas.
	Sometimes it floats, sometimes not so much.
	But of course, you know, this is a sign of the collapse of Western Europe.
	Now, it's interesting because people like myself and also I remember Michael Jan in studio with me many months ago, maybe over a year ago.
	Yeah, it was way over a year ago, talking about the collapse of Western Europe.
	I remember him saying, it's done.
	It's done because of the destruction of Nord Stream, which, of course, was destroyed through an act of sabotage by the United States Navy.
	They destroyed Nord Stream to cut off Germany from Russia's cheap energy.
	And as a result, Germany is collapsing.
	Porsche, for example, is shutting down some manufacturing operations in Germany, specifically some internal combustion engine lines.
	And it's trying to focus on EVs because, of course, Germany is still suckered into the green cult.
	And Porsche thinks that they want to bet their future on electric vehicles.
	which will be a losing bet, by the way.
	Because, well, EVs don't work that well.
	And they break easily.
	They're very expensive.
	They're difficult to ensure, difficult to maintain, slow to charge.
	And, you know, you need heat.
	I mean, think about it.
	Germany gets cold.
	And where does the heat come from on an electric vehicle?
	Well, from the batteries.
	So you use the heat.
	Now your range has been cut in half.
	Oh, gosh.
	That sucks.
	Makes the combustion engines look really, really good, by the way.
	Now, related to all of this, and this is a trend that we've reported on, we've talked about, we've interviewed many experts like Andy Sheckman about this.
	Here's a headline from the Russian News Agency, and it's important to hear this from Russia's point of view, and you'll understand why.
	BRICS member states to consider creating common digital payment platform.
	This was issued on February 28th.
	And what this means, well, the subhead is the gradual integration of the new BRICS member states into the work of the financial tracks and strengthening of cooperation at the expert level was noted as being one of the crucial tasks for 2024.
	It says that the Russian Finance Ministry, together with the Bank of Russia and BRICS partners, will prepare a number of initiatives to improve the international monetary and financial system, which will focus in particular on the issue of creating the BRICS Bridge multi-sided payment platform, according to files published following the first meeting of BRICS finance ministers and central banks governors in Sao Paulo, Brazil.
	Now, what this really means, by the way, is that this is a system which will replace SWIFT among the nations that choose to move away from the dollar, which is every sane nation since the West is announcing their intention to steal Russia's $300 billion in assets.
	That is just encouraging every nation in the world to We'll be moving away from the dollar because they don't want their currency or their assets to be stolen by the West.
	So the fact that Russia and other nations are announcing this now, and they just had a giant finance minister meeting in Brazil, this means they're actually done building it.
	They're done building it, and they're sort of shouting, They're just giving warning that they're about to roll this thing out and announcing to all the other countries, basically, hey, if you want to join us, come over to our system.
	Now, the BRICS system will make the SWIFT system look so clunky and outdated.
	I mean, SWIFT is clunky and outdated.
	It was built in the 1970s, by the way.
	And, of course, it's been augmented since then, but it's slow, it's cumbersome, it barely works.
	It's a broken system.
	That's why wire transfers fail all the time, by the way, because SWIFT is broken.
	But the Western countries still use it because, of course, they can't innovate anymore.
	But the non-Western countries have lots of innovation.
	And that's why countries like Russia or China or India or even Iran and so on, all of which are filled with high IQ engineers, by the way, And they are all building a much better, much faster system, which will be the BRICS payment platform.
	And like I said, they've already built it.
	They're just integrating it now.
	They're just basically getting countries to sign up for it.
	And this has been outlined as a key goal for 2024, which means that they plan to have this thing implemented among many countries by the end of this calendar year.
	In fact, the Russian finance ministry said, quote, And strengthening of cooperation at the expert level was noted as being one of the crucial tasks for 2024, right?
	So that means this is a priority for them to integrate this.
	As this happens, fewer and fewer countries will need dollars.
	They won't have to settle in dollars.
	And that means demand for the dollar and also demand for dollar-denominated debt, such as U.S. Treasuries, will plummet.
	And that means the US won't be able to sell off its debt very easily.
	And clearly in 2024 this is a priority to sign up all these other nations, which means that as we roll into 2025 Many of those countries are going to stop using the dollar, or let's say gradually stop using the dollar.
	It's going to take many years for this transition to run its course, but it begins now.
	And that means the US won't be able to sell off much debt anymore.
	And that's alarm bells ringing.
	And by the way, at the same time, the US tried to use the SWIFT system, tried to weaponize it, in order to crush Russia's economy.
	And what happened?
	What actually happened?
	Well, Russia's economy grew.
	And here from RT, Russia can now enter the world's top four economies, says Putin.
	Russia is already the largest economy in Europe, of course, much larger than the UK, much larger than Germany, and is now looking to pass Japan, according to the president.
	So Russia is already the biggest economy in Europe in purchasing power parity terms and could join the top four globally, said Vladimir Putin.
	Now, the PPP, purchasing power parity, compares economic productivity and standards of living between countries by adjusting for the differences in the cost of goods and services.
	So it's really sort of like a cost of living adjusted sort of level playing field look at the strength of national economies.
	Now, from the story, it says that in 2023, Russia was the world's fifth largest economy in terms of the PPP, and it was the only country in Europe in the top five.
	China was at the top of the list, says the story here, followed by the U.S., the U.S. is second, and then India and Japan were third and fourth.
	Russia was fifth, and then Indonesia, and then Germany.
	Wow.
	Indonesia is larger than Germany in terms of the PPP. So Russia is moving up because, well, the West failed to destroy Russia's economy.
	It actually just made Russia stronger.
	And we've also seen, by the way, over the last two years with the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, we've seen how Western Europe and the United States are barely capable of manufacturing anything.
	Can't make artillery.
	Can't make munitions.
	Can't make weapons.
	Doesn't even have, like, hypersonic missiles.
	No Western country has hypersonic missiles that work in the field.
	The U.S. even abandoned its hypersonic missile program while Russia's actually building them and using them.
	So the West is falling desperately behind, and again, the acceleration of the collapse of the economies of the USA and Europe is, as I said in the title, approaching nightmare speed.
	Germany is really in a state of accelerating collapse.
	Now, in the United States, by the way, things are also not looking good.
	And, of course, food inflation is so bad that we're starting to see crazy clown show suggestions for what people should do to be able to afford to eat.
	And so here's a hilarious headline from The Guardian.
	It says, let them eat flakes.
	Kellogg's CEO says that poor families should consider Cereal for dinner.
	I'm like, what?
	The subhead of that story is that multimillionaire Gary Pilnik was excoriated on the internet, especially as cereal prices have risen 28% over the last four years.
	So the multimillionaire chief executive officer of the U.S. food processing giant Kellogg's has drawn scorn after suggesting that families with strained finances should cope by eating cereal for dinner.
	Now, number one, by the way, if you're eating Frosted Flakes, I'm sorry.
	You're kind of an idiot.
	Number one, it's not even a good value.
	So there are way better ways.
	If you're down to living on your last $10, you don't want to buy a box of cereal.
	It's way overpriced for the nutrition that it offers, and it's not even organic, by the way.
	So who knows what all kind of pesticides and herbicides you're getting in there.
	And processed sugars.
	It's garbage food.
	It's processed junk food is all that is.
	That's mostly what Kellogg's makes is processed junk food.
	Not a good value.
	If you were living on your last dollar, and I've been there, folks.
	When I lived in Taiwan, I was down to my last 100 NT, which at the time was worth, I think, about four U.S. dollars.
	I literally was down to my last meal.
	And what did I buy at that time?
	And yeah, I know what it's like to be on the edge of not being able to eat.
	I've been there.
	Worked my way back from that.
	What did I buy?
	I bought rice and eggs.
	Because I knew I could cook the rice.
	I could boil water and cook the rice.
	And then I could just crack some eggs on top of it.
	And have some like egg rice.
	Yeah, it wasn't awesome, but it was cheap food.
	And eggs actually have decent nutrition, and the rice, it wasn't like this heavily processed white rice crap that you get in the U.S. In Taiwan, the everyday rice they have there actually has more nutrition in it.
	It's more of a real whole grain rice, okay?
	So I was doing rice and eggs.
	Until I got paid by one of the companies that I was doing some work for.
	And then, oh, it was party time.
	Then I could afford like, you know, which is like beef noodle soup and stuff like that.
	That was celebration time.
	But I lived on eggs and rice for a while.
	And in the U.S., what would you buy?
	If you were down to your last few dollars, you would buy...
	You know, legumes.
	You'd buy just bulk beans, not fancy, not heavily processed, not overpriced.
	You'd be going to the bottom shelf in the grocery store in certain aisles.
	You get big bags of beans and you get bags of rice and you'd buy some salt and then you get some, maybe some onions.
	You know, you get a bag of onions and you'd make like beans and rice and onions.
	And maybe some eggs or whatever.
	Maybe you can afford a little bit of meat.
	You throw that in there.
	You're not going to buy frosted freaking flakes, okay?
	Because not only will you waste a lot of money, and you might also end up with type 2 diabetes, eating all those processed sugars.
	Who knows?
	So this is a clown show suggestion from Kellogg's that the idea that eating its processed junk food cereals is somehow saving you money.
	It's not saving you money.
	Or that Americans should do this because you can't afford other foods anymore.
	You can't afford to buy dinner, so you should just eat cereal.
	Really?
	Like, Quaker Oats?
	I don't even know who owns Quaker Oats.
	Is that General Mills?
	I forgot.
	What if Quaker Oats came out and said, Oatmeal for dinner!
	Oatmeal for lunch!
	Oatmeal for breakfast!
	Oatmeal all the time!
	You can afford to eat!
	Don't worry about Biden's inflation!
	Just have oats, like horses, you know?
	That would be hilarious.
	It would be a clown show.
	Now, they haven't said that.
	I'm not trying to pick on Quaker Oats at the moment.
	And oats are actually a pretty healthy food.
	I gotta say, I do put organic raw oats into my smoothies.
	So I'm actually a fan of oats when they're organic and lab tested and not heavily processed.
	So I'm a fan of oats.
	Don't get me wrong.
	But I'm not living on oats and I'm not living on frosted flakes.
	I'm not living on junk food, thank God.
	So anyway, the CEO of Kellogg's, Garrett Pildick, was on CNBC on February 21st when he mentioned this remark, which a lot of people are referring to as the let them eat cake moment.
	In the French Revolution history, remember that?
	Let them eat cake.
	Whether or not Marie Antoinette actually said that historically is debatable, but it became a meme.
	Let them eat cake.
	Well, now it's let them eat flakes.
	Let them eat flakes because they can't afford food in Biden's broken economy.
	But if you think about it, this is exactly where things are going, with more and more people unable to afford cake.
	The basics of living in America because of, of course, corruption and treason at the highest levels of our government.
	So the other thing is that this guy, Pilnik, he makes $4 million a year, by the way.
	So he has an annual base salary of $1 million and then more than $4 million in incentives, according to The Guardian.
	So here he is, clocking millions of dollars, telling you to eat freaking cereal for dinner.
	Cereal that will make him more wealthy because they mark up their cereals, who knows, a thousand percent, maybe more, because they're filled with just garbage processed junk foods.
	I'm pretty sure you could buy beans and rice and onions for a lot less than a bunch of boxes of Kellogg's cereal if you're trying to feed your family, by the way.
	But believe it or not, Kellogg's actually has a campaign called Cereal for Dinner.
	And they've been pushing this since 2022.
	That's when food inflation really, really started to kick in for a lot of Americans.
	So Cereal for Dinner!
	Yeah, I remember when Coca-Cola used to promote Coke for breakfast.
	They actually ran ads of families in America having breakfast.
	Bacon and eggs and toast and Coke!
	Coca-Cola!
	You know, wake up with caffeine, sugar, and phosphoric acid!
	Yeah, I have a day filled with diabetes and diarrhea and indigestion.
	Is anybody listening to this still drinking Coca-Cola on a regular basis?
	I assume not.
	But if you are drinking Coca-Cola on a regular basis, have a look at that.
	Have a talk about that.
	That might be something you might want to think about eliminating.
	I don't know.
	I don't want to be your food police, but just saying, everybody else has moved off of that.
	I mean, everybody who's informed, they don't drink soda anymore.
	So anyway, this is just more evidence of the collapse of the U.S. economy, well, the collapse of the currency, more specifically, which is resulting in the appearance of food inflation and everything that goes along with it.
	You know, the implosion of small businesses and manufacturing and jobs all across America.
	Did you hear that the Hollywood workers are out of jobs now?
	Yeah, apparently Hollywood is imploding.
	And trust me, it's just the beginning.
	When AI starts making movies, they're not going to need any camera people, no light people.
	They're not even going to need actors, okay?
	Just giving you a heads up.
	If you work in Hollywood and you listen to this podcast...
	You might want to think about a career change.
	You might want to learn to code.
	I don't know.
	Just saying.
	Because Hollywood has no real future other than people who run the AI systems that generate the scripts, the movies, the AI avatar actors.
	Again, they're not going to need humans for any of this.
	The transition won't even take very long.
	A couple years from now...
	You'll be watching a movie and you'll think to yourself, I remember when movies had real people in them, you know?
	It's, yeah.
	But you won't even know the difference because it's so realistic.
	You'll think that that's an actor, but actor doesn't exist.
	Okay, anyway, back to Europe now.
	Although I do want to say, morally speaking, anybody who has worked for the woke, satanic, child-blasting, pedophile-infested Hollywood industry...
	It's probably a good thing to not work for them anymore.
	There are better things to do with your life.
	But then again, I know everybody needs a job.
	Everybody's got to eat.
	But it matters what you do.
	If you're involved in an evil industry, you might want to rethink that.
	Get out of California like Sylvester Stallone did.
	I know you're thinking, well, Stallone's got all the money in the world.
	He can move anywhere he wants.
	Well, you know what?
	He didn't always have all the money in the world.
	He worked at it.
	And you've got to work at it, too.
	I worked at it.
	Remember, I was broke.
	I was down at rice and eggs when I lived in Taiwan.
	Yeah, super broke, man.
	I know what it's like, but get away from the movie industry.
	Do something that isn't evil.
	That's actually a really good principle.
	Again, I apologize if it sounds like I'm lecturing today.
	I'm not trying to do that, but I do want to offer little bits of advice that might help people.
	Anyway, okay, moving on.
	Now, we're going to go back to Europe here.
	Check this out.
	The UK is directly involved in the Ukraine conflict, according to the Kremlin.
	And this comes from Dmitry Peskov.
	He said Thursday that the establishment media outlets in Europe have now admitted it outright that Britain has direct military involvement in Ukraine.
	And it was never a secret.
	This was reported in The Times.
	Claiming that Admiral Tony Radekin, the head of the UK Armed Forces, helped make battle plans for Ukraine.
	So Peskov said, quote, in general, it's no secret that the British really provide different forms of support to Ukraine.
	People on the ground and intelligence and so on and so forth.
	That is, they are actually directly involved in this conflict.
	And according to the Times, Radekid is, quote, understood to have helped the Ukrainians with the strategy to destroy Russian ships and open up the Black Sea.
	So, yeah, it's just like we reported and others like Scott Ritter reported when one of the ships was destroyed, one of the Russian ships.
	We all knew it was NATO forces that were running the targeting system, running the missiles, running the intelligence, the satellite imagery, all that.
	We knew it was a Western operation.
	And then they have Ukrainian soldiers like, you know, here, press the button to launch the missile.
	And by the way, I'm not implying that Ukrainian soldiers are not intellectually capable of running these systems themselves.
	If you ask me, the average Ukrainian is way smarter than the average Western European or the average American.
	Let me just get that straight.
	Ukrainians are smart people.
	But they just didn't have familiarity with those weapons systems.
	So NATO brought in their own troops, their own people who had years of training on those weapons systems, and then they pretended like Ukrainian soldiers were running them when actually that wasn't the case.
	It was NATO soldiers running the weapons.
	So the reason this matters is because, of course, Macron of France, he said earlier in the week that he wanted to put boots on the ground I guess French soldiers in Ukraine to fight Russia.
	Now, I don't remember his exact quote, so I'm paraphrasing, but that's what he meant.
	And, you know, he freaked out a lot of people with that quote.
	But he was basically implying that if Ukraine can't win this on its own, then maybe NATO should start throwing troops towards Russia.
	Yeah, if you want to get nuked, if you want London to be nuked and Paris to be nuked and so on, Medvedev has already stated which cities they're going to nuke, and one of those cities is Washington, D.C. So, hey, how about you don't convince Russia to launch nukes against the West?
	Because this becomes World War III very, very quickly.
	And Macron is insane thinking that, what, Western Europe can defeat Russia?
	Like, you and what army, literally?
	Where's your army?
	I mean, you've already seen the British Royal Navy.
	They're selling an aircraft carrier on eBay, you know?
	Germany can't make anything anymore.
	There's no energy.
	France?
	France's military was never very impressive.
	I mean, not for decades.
	Come on.
	Who's got a military in Europe other than maybe Poland?
	Who's actually got a military in Europe?
	Nobody.
	Doesn't exist.
	You don't really have any effective fighting force until you get down to Turkey.
	Then you have something in Turkey, but Turkey's not going to fight Russia.
	Are you kidding me?
	Even though Turkey's a NATO member, they're not going to fight Russia.
	Poland might try it.
	Who knows?
	And of course, there's this dust-up right now over Transnistria.
	I think I'm pronouncing that correctly, which is, it has been sort of part of Moldova and Transnistria, as I understand it, their congressional group, or I don't know what the proper term is, they have asked to be annexed by Russia, as I understand it, which is exactly what happened with the Donbass regions also in February of 2022.
	And then Russia said, yes, we will, you know, you can join Mother Russia, basically, and then, you know, that's what happened in February, and then, you know, the special military operation began.
	But Transnistria wants to be part of Russia, and Moldova...
	And Western countries are totally freaking out because they want to attack Transnistria and get all the ammunition that's held in storage facilities there.
	Some of it left over from the Cold War.
	And still good.
	Still good ammo.
	So the West is absolutely desperate to take this ammo from Transnistria.
	And the West is also desperate to steal the $300 billion of assets from Russia.
	But the West still can't make anything.
	They don't have the capacity or the labor or the energy or even really the technology anymore to manufacture, with any kind of significant industrial output, enough weapons and ammunition to fight Russia in a world war.
	The capacity just does not exist, and it's not even possible to build it anymore.
	You can't build it back.
	Because Europe shut down its energy infrastructure over the greenie weenies, the climate cultists.
	They wanted to appease all these lunatics, so they shut everything down, and now they're like, we can't make tanks!
	Yeah, you can't make tanks.
	What did you think was going to happen when you shut down your industry?
	I mean, for God's sake, solar-powered military?
	No?
	That would be a real clown show.
	Maybe they should do that to the Queen Elizabeth, huh?
	Instead of, since the propellers don't work, they should cover the entire surface of the aircraft carrier with solar panels.
	You know, you can't even use it to launch aircraft anymore.
	So it's not really an aircraft carrier, it's a solar panel carrier.
	And then, what you do is you run wires from those solar panels down the sides of the ship to little, like, 12-volt motors, little propellers.
	And that's how you push the ship through the water.
	That would be real British Royal Navy innovation right there.
	And if it didn't work, well, you could just rename that Scuttlebucket also.
	It's like, oh my god, it's a clown show every day.
	I almost can't invent even a fictional narrative that's dumber than what the British are already doing on their own.
	It's incredible entertainment just to watch them fumble around like a bunch of monkeys with crowbars or something banging on the walls wondering why the ships don't work.
	It's like, wow, your civilization has really self-immolated.
	You've committed total suicide of your society.
	And that's why the Brits that I know got out of Britain many years ago.
	They saw it coming, too.
	They're like, we've got to get out of here!
	You know, it's like leaving as fast as they can.
	And they don't even live there anymore.
	Can't blame them.
	But wrapping up this story about the UK being directly involved in the war, you know, Russia already has enough intelligence and evidence to justify bombing London right now.
	Because they can simply state that, yeah, the UK is directly involved in the war.
	The UK has effectively declared war on Russia.
	Therefore, UK military bases become, quote, legitimate targets from the point of view of Putin and Medvedev.
	They have enough to justify it right now.
	So, if you're the UK, you might want to be thinking about what you're doing.
	And the price that you might pay if Russia decides to retaliate, because again, there's nothing in the UK military that can stop Russia's missiles.
	Doesn't exist.
	Nothing.
	If Russia wants to launch a thermobaric missile and hit, I don't know, the parliament building and Big Ben and right there...
	I don't know the names of all the buildings there.
	I've been there.
	I saw it when I was much younger.
	I walked across that bridge on that river, and I saw Big Ben, and I saw, I think it was the parliamentary building, whatever it is.
	Russia could blow that thing to smithereens, and there's nothing the UK could do to stop it.
	And Russia could say, well, this is what happens when you declare war on Russia.
	And then, you know, you could imagine all the British leaders would be running around like chickens with their heads cut off.
	Oh my god, they've bombed us!
	Someone, start up the Queen Elizabeth!
	Oh, can't, sir, the propellers don't work!
	Oh, bring out the solar panels!
	Oh, you know, it would just be a freaking clown show.
	Keep in mind the context as I say this.
	I'm not picking on the British because, actually, America's, quote, president is even more embarrassing than any of the British leaders.
	So if I had to rate the shame chart of the most embarrassing clown shows in the world, Joe Biden's at the top of that list, folks.
	So I'm not singling out the Brits for this.
	But this has become a characteristic of Western civilization.
	It's like every Western nation is run by, you know, idiots, morons, traitors, wokesters, or dementia patients.
	It's like, wow, you know that these votes are rigged.
	These elections aren't legitimate.
	Because the people would never have elected this cabal of freaks and lunatics that are running Western civilization and running it into the ground.
	This is not democracy.
	These aren't elections.
	These are tyrants.
	Everything's rigged in order to destroy Western civilization.
	The reason this is happening so fast is because it's all on purpose.
	These aren't accidents, understand.
	This is not something that's just happening out of the blue, like, whoops, we made mistakes, and we'll fix it next time.
	No, that's not what's happening.
	This is the deliberate takedown of Western civilization.
	And of course, the replacements are here.
	In fact, Joe Biden, where's that story?
	Joe Biden says he's got a new word for the replacements.
	Oh, here it is.
	Also from the UK Daily Mail.
	Joe Biden says they are not migrants.
	They are, quote, newcomers.
	What?
	They're the newcomers.
	Yeah, they're the replacements.
	Biden faces fury over new politically correct phrase for border crossers during historic crisis.
	The newcomers.
	Welcome, newcomers.
	What have you brought with you to the new land?
	Well, we trafficked children and we trafficked some weapons and drugs.
	You want to buy some drugs?
	We're the newcomers!
	This is what Biden says now.
	From the story, eagle-eyed lawmakers immediately started slamming the White House for using the misleading term newcomers.
	Chairman Mark Green said the White House has to use such dishonest and misleading language.
	Yeah, newcomers.
	Which means that they're welcome and you're not.
	You're being displaced.
	In New York City, for example, right?
	All the free money and the housing and everything goes to the newcomers!
	The illegals!
	Yeah.
	And by the way, speaking of rigged elections and all that, here's a story from the National Pulse here.
	Democrats say they won't certify Trump victory in Congress.
	What?
	I thought that's called an insurrection.
	I thought that's election interference.
	I thought Trump was being criminally charged over accusations that he tried to do that.
	Well, wait a minute.
	Now the Democrats want to do it, and it's all okay.
	So from the story...
	Democrats who have spent the last three years labeling former President Donald Trump and other Republicans who questioned the 2020 presidential election results as insurrectionists now claim that they will refuse to certify a potential Trump victory in November.
	Yeah, right.
	So they're already saying, we don't care what the voters say.
	We don't care.
	Even if Trump wins, we won't certify it.
	Man, I hope that happens.
	You know why?
	Because I want to see the response from real America.
	And I'm not going to say any more about that, but I hope they try that.
	I hope Trump wins and then the Democrats in Congress all gather together and say, we're not going to certify Trump as the president.
	I hope that happens because that's exactly what we need to arrest and prosecute every last damn treasonous Democrat in Congress.
	Get them all out of there.
	Arrest them all.
	Remove them all from office.
	I hope they try that.
	Because they probably need to get the boot anyway.
	We need replacements in Congress, not across the whole country, but in Congress, absolutely we need replacements.
	Of course, Mitch McConnell from the Senate, you know, he's stepping down reportedly.
	And that's also freaking out the Democrats because they had Mitch bent over their knee, didn't they?
	Oh, they had Mitch McConnell and his ties to Communist China.
	Yep, they had him completely controlled.
	Mitch McConnell, his job was to stifle anything that pro-America patriots wanted to do.
	That was his role.
	Stop everything.
	Stop the Republicans.
	Stop Trump.
	Well, it turns out what actually stopped was his cognitive function.
	And he can't function anymore, so he's stepping down.
	I guess he should have listened to my interview yesterday with Dr.
	Michael Nels.
	If you missed that interview, go back and listen to it.
	It is really important information about protecting your hippocampus.
	That's right, the hippocampus, the region of your brain, a certain nerve cluster where you can grow new nerve cells every single day, which is responsible for your creativity and innovation, your...
	Sort of your human...
	The impulse and power that gives you the energy to make it through the day and to have courage to think for yourself.
	That comes from the hippocampus.
	Not to be confused with the hipporumpus, which is what most Americans are far more interested in when they're watching celebrity news.
	The hipporumpus is in a different area of anatomy, and it's got nothing to do with the brain.
	The hipporumpus...
	Is a different organ for if you have to put more junk in your trunk, then you could use the hipporumpus.
	But for the rest of us, the hippocampus is what's really important.
	So make sure that you listen to that interview yesterday with Dr.
	Nels covering the hippocampus, not the hipporumpus.
	Alright, with that said, I'm going to play the special report that I recorded earlier.
	It's only about 10 minutes, which is about the interest rates and how the Federal Reserve is not likely to lower rates anytime soon.
	So the pivot is gone.
	And how this is going to affect commercial real estate markets and then bank solvency across America.
	So we'll do that report and then we'll be back on the other side of that with the full interview.
	With Roger Stone.
	And this week I asked Roger Stone about Israel.
	And what he thinks Trump would do with the Israel situation.
	And also the Muslim vote in America.
	Now in Michigan, 100,000 Michiganders.
	Yes, that appears to be the correct term.
	100,000 Michiganders voted against Joe Biden.
	And they're the Democrats.
	They voted, I think, no confidence was the...
	Uncommitted, I think, is the term, but it means no confidence.
	Okay, that's what they voted.
	That was the Muslim vote, or Muslims and those who support them.
	The Muslim vote in Michigan is so anti-Joe because Joe is now named Genocide Joe, obviously because of his continued support for Israel's genocide.
	And it's so bad against Joe Biden or Genocide Joe that the Muslims in Michigan are even thinking, oh, we're just going to vote for Trump.
	Even though Trump is also pro-Israel, we don't care.
	We just want to punish Genocide Joe.
	A hundred thousand of them did that.
	And that's a multiple of the margin of victory to which Biden's victory was attributed in 2020, even though, of course, they cheated for that.
	So, let me offer this before we go to the special report.
	Joe Biden, he can't win if he continues to be pro-Israel because he'll lose the Muslim vote across America.
	He also can't win if he goes anti-Israel because then he would lose the Jewish vote across America.
	You see that?
	He would lose, I mean, AIPAC would step in and say, oh my god, you know, We're going to pull the Jewish support from you.
	No Zionist for Joe Biden, but for a different reason than the Muslims, you see.
	Obviously, it's the opposite situation.
	So, genocide Joe, he's stuck.
	There's nothing that he can do right now that gives him both the Jewish vote and the Muslim vote.
	Whereas Trump, being that he's already said that he's pro-Israel, he's got the Jewish vote from, well, at least...
	The more conservative Jews in America, and there are more and more of those now because they're turning away from the Democrats.
	But Trump's also going to get a lot of the Muslim vote.
	Which seems bizarre, because Trump pushed the Muslim travel ban during his administration, but because of circumstances, a travel ban is not nearly as bad as being bombed to death in a genocidal war action.
	So you see, the Muslims are now thinking, man, we wish we had Trump back.
	We can deal with a travel ban.
	We can't deal with our cities being bombed into oblivion by Israel.
	That's how crazy the world is now.
	The travel ban is the good news.
	That's the good version.
	That's the good cop is just the travel ban.
	Wild, right?
	So Joe Biden's stuck, and there's no way he can win this thing.
	There's no way Biden can win, which is why they're going to replace him.
	They're going to replace Joe Biden.
	And Roger Stone says in this interview here coming up, he says it's going to be Michelle Obama one way or another.
	Maybe Michelle Obama with Newsom, but certainly Michelle Obama.
	That would be Obama's fourth term if Michelle Obama were to be elected.
	Can you imagine that?
	How much damage can Barack Obama do in 16 years of just savaging this nation?
	So check out this special report, and then we'll go to the Roger Stone interview.
	A couple of quick plugs.
	Given that we're talking about the economic situation, we've had a lot of positive response about goldbacks, and also our gold and silver sponsor needs to be mentioned here.
	Go to metalswithmike.com for gold and silver coins.
	That are very competitively priced.
	You can check the prices live on the website there of the Treasure Island Company.
	That's metalswithmike.com or You can go to verifiedgoldbacks.com if you want to get goldbacks, which are a physical kind of note with physical 24 karat gold embedded in each goldback at very precise amounts.
	High divisibility.
	Very beautiful.
	They make great gifts.
	Some people use them as payment systems in communities or at farmers markets.
	Not everybody has seen goldbacks yet, but when they do, they're really enthralled by them.
	I've given away, I don't know, maybe thousands of goldbacks at this point.
	I hand these things out like candy, because I just love people that have goldbacks.
	So I've given away lots and lots of goldbacks, and they're beautiful, and they're made with real gold.
	So check that out at verifiedgoldbacks.com, and you can see my lab testing on those goldbacks.
	And then, of course, our regular sponsor, the Satellite Phone Store, gives you backup communications.
	That's critical as World War III gets underway and the economic collapse accelerates.
	So go to sat123.com to check out the satellite phones.
	And all of these are items that can help you get prepared for the economic chaos and the social chaos, the political chaos, election chaos that's coming.
	I believe in preparedness, and I only promote things that I believe can help you navigate and survive what's coming.
	You notice I'm not promoting Kellogg's Frosted Flakes.
	No.
	Useless.
	Pointless.
	The things that I advocate are things that can help save you or save your assets or keep you alive, keep you fed, defend you and your family.
	I promote serious solutions here, not frivolous processed cereals.
	Give me a break.
	And the food that I do promote is, of course, certified organic laboratory tested and really well formulated with pure, honest ingredients.
	And by the way, we've completely sold out of the macaroni and cheese now.
	Sorry about that.
	I guess we didn't order enough raw materials, but it's going to be a couple months before we can make more because the supply chain is a mess.
	It's hard to get those materials.
	So for those of you who got the macaroni and cheese, enjoy it.
	I know you're going to love it.
	And if you didn't, well, I'll keep you posted when we have more.
	All right, with that said, enjoy the special report and then the full interview with Roger Stone on the other side.
	Wow, the new inflation numbers just came in, the core inflation, and it's skyrocketing.
	Way beyond what anyone expected.
	And this is with the government fudging the numbers the best it can to try to claim that inflation is very low.
	The bottom line is, what it means is that the Fed will not be pivoting.
	The Fed is not going to lower interest rates as has been expected and factored into everything.
	It's low interest rates or a Fed pivot that was factored into the stock market.
	And it was also factored into commercial real estate and the cost to service loans in commercial real estate, which is also imploding right now.
	There was an office tower that was just sold in, I think it was New York City, for $1.
	Because the buyer, of course, had to assume the loans.
	And the loans are the, that's the thing that's killing everybody because of interest rates.
	A huge percentage of the commercial real estate market has to refinance over the next 24 months, let's say.
	And they were hoping that interest rates would begin to plunge so that they could refinance at lower rates, but that's not happening.
	The Federal Reserve is keeping rates higher, or where they are now and potentially higher.
	They may raise rates.
	That's a possibility now because of these inflation numbers.
	If they raise rates, or even if they keep them where they are, that's a guarantee that the commercial real estate market is going to absolutely implode.
	And that's going to cause cascading bank failures across the United States because it's a lot of regional banks that actually conduct the commercial real estate loans.
	So as those commercial real estate investors go belly up, These banks are going to be burdened with taking over a lot of actual commercial properties that are largely vacant for lots of reasons because the economy is imploding and because of COVID and the remote workforce phenomenon, all of that.
	And these banks are going to have to offload these commercial real estate properties at fire sale prices like $1.
	So yes, you're going to see banks essentially giving away commercial buildings to anyone who's willing to just service the debt, even at a deep discount, and keep the lights on.
	Pay the property taxes, stop the roof from caving in, and just keep the building going.
	If you can do that, you can have it.
	That's where this is going.
	Seriously.
	This is the implosion of the commercial real estate market, and the result is you're going to see cascading bank failures.
	So get ready for more bank implosions across America, which means more bailouts, more FDIC funding of bailouts, more losses.
	This is what's coming.
	Well, there's going to continue to be downward pressure on residential real estate because of higher interest rates.
	And given these new inflation numbers, again, it means the Fed's not going to pivot, so it's not going to lower interest rates, which means there's no help coming for the residential real estate market.
	It's going to continue to be very difficult.
	On top of that, The average American consumer is now spending more and more of their income on food because food inflation continues to skyrocket, going through the roof.
	The government doesn't even count that.
	Otherwise, their inflation numbers would be substantially higher.
	But they try to ignore food because, well, you know, they're fudging the numbers.
	Now, on top of this, on top of this, Russia just banned gasoline exports for six months.
	And I mean, yeah, it's a huge deal.
	This means that there will be no surplus refined gasoline on the marketplace for at least six months.
	It might last longer than six months, but this is going to push fuel prices much higher across Europe and the United States.
	And you might wonder, well, how can that be?
	The U.S. isn't buying gasoline from Russia.
	Well, it's a commodity.
	It's a fungible commodity.
	And so when Russia stops exporting gasoline, it affects all the other countries that normally buy from Russia.
	And then they have to start getting supplies from someone else, i.e.
	suppliers that also supply the United States or Western European countries.
	And so prices rise globally because of that decision by Russia.
	Now, why is Russia, by the way, doing this?
	I think two reasons.
	Number one, Russia is stockpiling fuel for its planned military assault on Ukraine.
	Even though gasoline itself is not the most popular fuel for the military, that's diesel.
	But there are some vehicles that use gasoline, so that may be one of the reasons.
	In addition to that, and I think this is actually the bigger part of this answer, I think that Putin is trying to hurt Joe Biden's re-election chances.
	Even though Putin has said publicly that he prefers Joe Biden to be president because Joe Biden is...
	You know, more predictable, he says, compared to Donald Trump.
	The truth of the matter is that I think Putin despises Biden and the Biden State Department, Victoria Nuland and all those people, because they keep pushing more funding to Ukraine, which is costing Russia more money to fight NATO in Ukraine or to fight Ukraine itself.
	And I think that Putin feels like he could Maybe deal with changing of the administration.
	Trump would be a new face to negotiate with.
	And there might be able to be some kind of a peace accord if Trump is in charge rather than Biden.
	And so one of the ways to hurt Biden is to cause more inflation.
	And how do you do that?
	You drive up fuel prices.
	And that seems to be exactly what this is designed to do.
	Now, what's making this even worse is the fact that Biden had emptied the National Petroleum Reserve a couple of years ago in order to try to drive down fuel prices for the previous election, the 2022 election, you know, try to get Democrats elected at that time.
	The result of that is that the U.S. has no excess petroleum reserves.
	So they can't flood the market with petroleum again.
	There's just nothing left.
	Which means the U.S. now, the Biden administration, can't manipulate the market and artificially suppress fuel prices.
	That means fuel prices are going to rise.
	And this will indirectly affect diesel prices, although not as much as gasoline.
	And also since Joe Biden and Western countries have, of course, been at war with fossil fuels, they've shut down fuel and energy exploration and refining.
	So Western Europe and the United States don't have the capacity to compensate for the global demand increase.
	That has less supply because Russia banning exports.
	So bottom line is, you're going to see fuel prices go up.
	This may be designed to hurt Joe Biden.
	It's definitely designed to hurt Western economies.
	It's going to clobber Western Europe in a bad way.
	Energy prices are going to go up, and that's going to feed into higher food prices, which brings us back to the food inflation issue that we saw earlier.
	Food inflation is going to get much worse.
	Core inflation is going to continue to rise.
	And that means the Fed is not going to pivot.
	Interest rates may actually go up.
	And that means that Europe, as well as many investors in the U.S., are stuck between a rock and a hard place.
	And you're going to see a massive cascading failure of banks and investment funds and real estate projects, both commercial and residential.
	This is going to be an economic implosion.
	So get prepared, folks.
	Make sure you're all squared away.
	You know, gold and silver, maybe even goldbacks, if that's something that interests you, check out verifiedgoldbacks.com.
	That's our affiliate site.
	Or make sure you've got your food supplies squared away.
	It's all happening now.
	This is a major action from Russia.
	The inflation numbers are in.
	The Fed is not reducing rates.
	The stock market is in a new bubble, an AI bubble.
	It's not going to last forever.
	Get ready because reality is going to strike.
	And when it does, those who are not prepared are going to pay the price.
	So I want you to be safe.
	I want you to be well off.
	I want you to protect your assets.
	So keep listening.
	Keep learning.
	Do your research.
	Do what's right for you.
	Don't believe the authorities.
	Take every precaution possible.
	And God bless you, and thank you for listening.
	I'm Mike Adams here of brighteon.com.
	Welcome to today's interview on Brighteon.com.
	I'm Mike Adams, and we are joined once again by Roger Stone, who we spoke with several weeks ago, a very popular interview, had a really great response.
	Roger loves America.
	He's done a tremendous amount of work for America.
	His website is stonezone.com, and he joins us today to give us the latest updates on Donald Trump's presidential campaign, the weaponization of the judicial system, and other world events.
	Welcome to the show, Roger.
	It's great to have you back on.
	Mike, it is great to be back with you again.
	God bless you.
	God bless you too, Roger, and I really appreciate you taking the time.
	We had a wonderful conversation, you know, a month ago, whatever it was, and people wanted you back.
	You're very gracious to come back and spend time with us.
	So let's start with now the weaponization of the judicial system.
	It's clear that every measure is being taken to unfairly persecute Donald Trump to target him financially and through lawfare, even at the expense of perverting the entire judicial foundation upon which this country is based.
	Where do you think this is going?
	I'm talking about the New York case in particular.
	And Trump is obviously filing for appeal on that, but he had to put up hundreds of millions of dollars just to do that.
	Where do you think that's going, and what does it mean for America if the left can weaponize every institution against us?
	Well, Mike, let me first say that as a veteran of 13 national presidential campaigns and 45 years in the American political arena, I really have never seen anything like this before.
	This is a new development.
	So it is absolutely clear that the judicial system at both the state and federal level has been completely politicized and completely weaponized against Donald Trump.
	I don't really think he is guilty of any crimes.
	In the New York case, which is particularly egregious, he borrowed money from banks.
	He put up collateral to secure those loans.
	Those banks conducted their own appraisal of the value of that collateral.
	They made loans on the basis of their own appraisal.
	They were paid an enormous amount in interest.
	They made $40 million in interest.
	And none of them are unhappy.
	By the way, they're all paid either on time or in some cases a little early.
	So there's no victims in this crime.
	The complaint wasn't brought by somebody who was victimized.
	There was no complaint.
	This is a complaint that was cooked up by a politicized attorney general.
	And Letitia James, who, as you know, ran for office before she was even Attorney General, saying that she was going to get Donald Trump.
	She was going to put Donald Trump on trial, despite the fact that she still wasn't in office and had no evidence in hand of any crimes by Donald Trump.
	Now, to make things even worse, the judge basically convicted Trump before the trial even began.
	He declared him victory.
	No, there was not a mistake by Trump's lawyers who failed to check a box.
	That's false.
	The specific law that the attorney general brought this case under does not provide under any circumstances for a jury trial.
	Although there's no guarantee that in Manhattan, the most liberal enclave perhaps in the country, that the result would have been any different, but it would have only taken at least one juror to be sane.
	So, and as you correctly point out, just the cost of appealing this to the appeals court, which by the way is also an elected court that is done on a partisan basis, so completely wrong.
	Staffed and peopled by elected left-wing Democrats.
	Just appealing costs a half-billion-dollar bond.
	So Trump has to come up with the cash, even though he doesn't have to forfeit all of it.
	My guess is that he won't actually get justice until he gets to the New York State Supreme Court, and even then it's not guaranteed.
	Now, this is happening simultaneously with his appeal of two defamation cases where a woman, E. Jean Carroll, who seems like a pretty zany character to me, claims that Trump raped her in the dressing room of a very expensive, upscale department store.
	Trump continues to deny that.
	In the defamation case, the first one, the jury did not find, pardon me, the judge did not find that Trump had raped her, but he did find that Trump had sexually assaulted her and had awarded the woman, I think it was $85 million.
	Then Trump went out publicly and said, I'd never rape this woman.
	She filed yet another defamation suit.
	And there was a second finding against Trump for simply saying that he didn't know the woman and he didn't rape her for another, I think it was, $58 million.
	But these awards are outrageous.
	There's no precedent for this.
	And it's clear that if you're Donald Trump, any Any woman, I'm not speaking about this case in particular, but leftist operatives can find any woman just out of the woodwork to claim anything against Donald Trump, and then when Donald Trump says, no, I didn't do that, then she sues for defamation, and the jury, which has been programmed to hate Trump by the liberal media, awards tens of millions of dollars, or the judge does that.
	I mean, it is such a rigged system.
	Well, it's even worse than that, Mike, because in this particular case, they changed the state law specifically to extend the statute of limitations so that Trump could be sued over these claims.
	And then additionally, what you say is exactly right.
	This woman, E. Jean Carroll, according to a piece I wrote in, Read in Vanity Fair, met George Conway, the left-wing attorney, at a cocktail party, and he said, well, why don't you sue?
	She said, I can't because it's time barred.
	He said, well, we can fix that.
	They went to a friendly state legislator.
	They got the law adjusted so that Trump was subject to suit.
	And then he helped find her the financing from this fellow Reid Hoffman, who's a major donor to left wing causes.
	And also, we know, visited Epstein's Island numerous times who funded the lawsuit.
	Then you have, of course, the upcoming business records case in which it is alleged that Donald Trump paid hush money to a woman.
	He denies it.
	The government's chief witness has denied it on multiple occasions.
	He keeps changing his story.
	At best, this would be a business records case, a civil case.
	But the Soros-funded prosecutor in that case has bumped that up to a criminal felony.
	That's probably the next legal action.
	All of this is designed, of course, to do three things.
	One, to distract Donald Trump's time.
	So the time he should be out campaigning, because he's the frontrunner for President of the United States in the Republican Party, the time he should be out campaigning is distracted for these courtroom antics.
	Secondarily, it drains his money.
	The cost of his lawyers is astronomical.
	And lastly, it's of course meant to sully his name, further blacken his name.
	He's a rapist.
	He's a thief.
	Of course, he's neither one.
	So that is the designed goal of the tsunami of lawfare.
	And we haven't even gotten into the federal cases yet.
	I mean, there, it's even more egregious.
	It's pretty clear to me.
	That under the 1997 Presidential Records Act, that Donald Trump, as a former President of the United States, or as President of the United States, has the authority to dispose of his documents in any way he wishes.
	He can decide what to keep, he can decide what to return for the government.
	It's actually a decision in D.C., in the D.C. Circuit, by Judge Amy Berman Jackson, the same judge who sat on my case, in which she ruled that former President Bill Clinton I'm sorry to interrupt,
	but what you're saying is really critical here A Democrat can do anything they want with their records, or as happened recently, the DOJ refused to prosecute Joe Biden for mishandling classified documents, claiming that he was too old and senile to prosecute.
	Yeah, exactly right.
	But Trump can't do anything without being accused of being a criminal, even if it's the exact same actions that a Democrat took.
	Well, and it's actually more egregious than that in the sense that I think that the deep state brought this documents case in Florida with the expectation that that would be enough to destroy and perhaps even incarcerate Trump.
	Until the luck of the draw brought them an honest judge, Judge Eileen Cannon.
	Yes, she's a Trump appointee.
	They didn't complain when Obama appointees oversaw Paul Manafort's trial or General Flynn's trial or my trial.
	That's perfectly all right.
	But now you will hear the talking heads on MSNBC, Andrew Weissman and Neil Keitel.
	She's incompetent.
	She's a right.
	No, she's an honest judge.
	That's your problem.
	She's an honest judge and you can't stand that.
	So that is why they engineered this further prosecution of Trump in Washington, D.C., Where he's essentially accused of questioning the outcome of an election, which I believe he has a First Amendment right to do.
	And, of course, their argument is, well, wait a minute.
	He was told by the attorney general that he lost.
	He was told by the head of the FBI that he lost.
	He was told by the national security apparatus that he lost.
	None of which matters, of course, because what only matters is what he believed.
	Exactly.
	Mens rea, as the lawyers say.
	What was in his mind?
	I know this.
	Donald Trump does not believe today did not believe then will never believe That he lost to Joe Biden in a landslide.
	He will never believe that.
	He, like everyone else in America, saw that when we went to bed at 3 o'clock in the morning, he was ahead in virtually every swing state.
	And by the next morning, miraculously out of nowhere, a very, very substantial number of paper ballots had appeared out of nowhere to allow Joe Biden to carry each one of those states.
	Look, it's obvious to our audience and to myself as well.
	Let me adjust this so we can see you better.
	It was rigged.
	Obviously it was rigged.
	They just kept running ballot stuffing, running ballots over and over again.
	They did mail-in ballots and then they just harvested the ballots and ran them through mules like D'Souza's movie talks about.
	I mean, we know that.
	But I need to ask you this question.
	About New York and about Letitia James there and her persecution of Donald Trump, The lengths that they're willing to go to to get Trump, isn't it putting the entire real estate economy of New York, the state of New York, in jeopardy?
	Because any investor now looking at New York would have to say, well, wait a minute.
	Why would I put money into New York?
	Why would I get financing in New York?
	Why would I build a hotel or homes or apartments in New York if years later...
	If they don't like me, they can come back and claim that I misvalued my properties for that loan from 15 years earlier, and they can throw me in jail and confiscate my property and fine me hundreds of millions of dollars.
	I mean, isn't every investor now thinking that?
	Haven't the Democrats once again committed a kind of self-immolation, destroying their own local real estate economy just to get Trump?
	I think that's precisely correct.
	And you have seen, if you've watched on a number of the financial shows, people, businessmen and women who are not Trump supporters, who are not Republicans, who don't think as you and I do, saying, well, why would I make any investments in New York?
	I would go to someplace that is safer, someplace where the system will not be rigged against me.
	But here's a larger and more expansive example of this.
	Trump has argued in D.C., That he's entitled to presidential immunity.
	As a former president, the acts that he performed during his time as president should afford him legal immunity.
	Special Counsel Jack Smith, when that was rejected by the trial court judge, wanted to leapfrog the appeals court and go directly to the Supreme Court.
	That's because he urgently wants to have a trial before the election.
	This is all about the election.
	And to their credit, the Supreme Court would not allow that.
	They wouldn't hear it.
	They insisted that it go first to the DC Court of Appeals.
	Now, Trump's defeat in the DC Court of Appeals was guaranteed.
	He was not going to win there.
	It's the most politicized left-wing court in the country.
	And indeed, he lost his appeal there.
	And now that will move to the U.S. Supreme Court.
	But the question, we don't know two things.
	One, we don't know whether the Supreme Court will hear it.
	And then secondarily, if they do hear it, do they recognize the Pandora's box they are opening?
	If they rule against Trump and they may, well, then that means Barack Obama can be prosecuted for using drones to kill American citizens, which he very clearly did.
	Yes.
	Even even less shockingly, the deep state could be prosecuted for surveilling Tucker Carlson prior to his going to Russia and back when he was considering going to Russia to conduct an interview.
	Those in the deep state could be prosecuted for for enacting the entire Russian collusion hoax, which was born in an Oval Office meeting with Barack Obama and Joe Biden and National Security Adviser Susan Rice and the FBI director James Comey and the CIA director John Brennan and others.
	So will they really sacrifice presidential immunity, recognizing the extraordinary vulnerability of their own incumbents?
	We don't know the answer to that yet.
	But you know, Roger, they never mean for anything to apply equally across the board.
	It's never based on principles.
	It's only about selective prosecution of Donald Trump or any other conservative, let's say, They will never apply the laws to themselves.
	We know that.
	We've seen that with the DOJ and with Biden and many other examples of that.
	But Steve Bannon recently at CPAC gave a speech where he said that all those names that you just mentioned, that all those people should be arrested.
	But that's under existing law, right?
	And we're not even talking about Well, let's take it in two parts.
	Which even Special Counsel John Durham, whose operation really was a cover-up operation rather than an exposure operation, he very painstakingly took more than five years to reach his conclusions.
	That's to make sure that the statute of limitations had run so that people like Jake Sullivan and John Podesta and Hillary Clinton and the rest of the Barack Obama administration alum who I just enumerated would not be prosecuted.
	By the way, he never even addressed the false narrative that the Democratic National Committee was the target of an online hack by Russian intelligence.
	It wasn't.
	That's not true.
	The so-called CrowdStrikes report, which remains to this day classified as Which was denied to my lawyers in my defense.
	But the testimony of Sean Henry, the president of CrowdStrikes, who just happens to be a former assistant to FBI Director Robert Mueller, testified under oath before the House Intelligence Committee that his report actually contains no proof that the DNC was the target of a Russian hack.
	There is no evidence to that effect because it wasn't.
	In my own trial, Mike, the judge would not allow us to introduce forensic evidence and expert testimony in which we could have proved definitively that there was no hack of the DNC, that the information that was acquired by WikiLeaks was downloaded based on the speed of the download times.
	According to Bill Binney, the foremost expert in terms of counterintelligence technology, To some kind of hard drive and taken out the back door.
	But here's the thing about the radical left.
	It doesn't matter how discredited, how disproved, how debunked any of their crazy claims are.
	If you just wait a few weeks, they will just come back and recycle it all again as if they never heard the first response.
	And they'll point to their original assertion as proof that they were right.
	We're living this right now.
	We're right back to it.
	Donald Trump is soft on Putin.
	No, he isn't.
	The Russians are going to interfere in the 2024 election the same way they interfered in the 2020 election.
	People keep pointing to me.
	They're pushing that narrative because they know that Trump is likely to win.
	I mean, they're setting up the answer to why Trump won.
	No question.
	And they point endlessly to the U.S. Senate Intelligence Committee report, which is pure bunk.
	Every single reference to me in that is a cut and paste out of the Huffington Post or some other crazy left-wing news outlet.
	Not a single word in that report regarding me specifically is accurate or true.
	It is a paste up.
	But it was a bipartisan report.
	You're absolutely right.
	The Republicans on the panel probably hated Donald Trump more than the Democrats on the panel.
	There's not a single patriot on that panel.
	So the fact that it's bipartisan is meaningless.
	It was produced by the Uniparty.
	It contains no proof of Russian collusion with the Trump campaign.
	It's just a paste-up.
	It's all false.
	Okay, Roger, let's move forward.
	There's a couple of burning questions I need to ask you.
	Number one, I mean, thank you for that explanation.
	You're exactly right.
	How long will New World Order Nikki stay in the race, in your view?
	I think she'll stay in as long as there's money in the bank.
	Her job is not to be elected president.
	There's no prospect of that whatsoever.
	Her job is to do as much damage as she possibly can do to Donald Trump as a battering ram.
	She's not been very successful at that.
	Those who say, well, she's going to bolt like John Anderson did in 1980 to run as an independent candidate for president.
	We have something in this country called sore loser laws that essentially say that if you ran in the primary in a given state, regardless of whether you won or whether you lost, you're not eligible to be on the ballot in a general election in that state.
	So once we get through Super Tuesday here in early March, more than half the states will have selected their delegates and her name is locked on the ballot in those places now.
	So I think an independent candidacy on her part is really virtually impossible.
	Could she flip over to the so-called no labels group, which is really a big neocon front?
	Yes, she could, but only if she ran for vice president, because I think the sore loser laws prevent her from an independent candidacy, which she couldn't sustain anyways.
	So you think her main mission is to try to spoil a Trump victory?
	There's no question about that.
	And perhaps her reward when this is over, if she were to be successful, would be a cabinet in the next Democratic administration or perhaps some more defense contractor corporate boards.
	She's finished in elective office.
	She got humiliated in her home state.
	That's right.
	She has no credibility as a candidate.
	I was very happy to see on primary night in South Carolina, the president essentially ignoring her, keeping his fire focused on Joe Biden and the current administration and not giving her the time of day.
	I think that is the best way to address her.
	Her campaign at this juncture is a sideshow.
	She has no prospect of victory.
	I point out to you, Mike, the states that allowed crossover voting, like New Hampshire, which may have been the only chance she had to damage Donald Trump, she failed despite the fact that thousands of non-Republicans and some Democrats crossed into the Republican primary there.
	Trump still won handily.
	In South Carolina, where anybody of any party can vote in any party primary, she did get, you know, probably thousands of Democrats who will go back and vote Democratic in the fall.
	But she still fell short.
	I think that's because many independents in South Carolina lean right.
	Some Democrats still lean right.
	Trump not only won South Carolina, Mike, but he won by the single largest number of votes of any candidate for president, Republican or Democrat, in the history of the state primary.
	Alright, outstanding.
	Let's jump into the deep end of the pool here now.
	Let's talk about Israel, Muslims, and the Middle East, because a couple of dynamics I'd like your thoughts on.
	Number one, the Muslim America vote is moving away from the Democrats.
	For every U.S.-made bomb that Israel drops on Gaza, more and more Muslims in America are saying, we won't support Biden.
	So Biden's in a tough spot there, especially in certain swing states like Minnesota with a strong Muslim population there.
	That's a big deal.
	In fact, last week I had a Muslim, a Texas Muslim here in studio that I interviewed.
	I didn't ask him who he was planning on voting for, but I have no doubt.
	He's pro-America, pro-Liberty, pro-Texas, pro-Second Amendment.
	I mean, he would vote for Trump.
	There are a lot of Muslims who would vote for Trump in America, and yet...
	Well, and let me say one more thing.
	Sorry for the strong preamble here.
	I don't think any person can become elected as president in the United States unless, from a practical standpoint, unless they go all in with support for Israel because of the power of AIPAC and the Israel lobby.
	And Trump has said that he strongly supports Israel.
	But that seems to me, and this is where I'd like your opinion, seems to me that's becoming...
	Increasingly morally hazardous, given that Israel is clearly engaged in acts that are widely characterized as genocide.
	Even the International Court of Justice has said that the case of genocide against Israel can perceive that it has merit, that it is a plausible accusation.
	How do you suppose Trump might either, number one, benefit from the Muslim vote, but is that possible if he's strongly pro-Israel, or how would Trump possibly navigate this quagmire?
	Any ideas?
	Well, first of all, rather than look at strictly the political interest, first let's look at the national interest.
	I'll tell you what I think Trump would not do.
	He would not be arming Hamas and Hezbollah.
	He would not be unfreezing $100 billion, according to the Wall Street Journal, in assets for Iran.
	He's not naive enough to think that that money will not be used to expedite their nuclear weapons development program, that that money will not be used to subsidize Hamas and Hezbollah.
	The problem with this administration is, in truth, we're on both sides of the war.
	We are supposedly supporting our traditional ally Israel.
	We give them, I believe, $1.4 billion a year.
	At the same time, we're subsidizing radical Muslims, trusting them not to use that money for anything other than humanitarian purposes, which is a great naivete.
	So Trump would not be on both sides of the war.
	I think that's a good place to start.
	And while he is a supporter of Israel, I also recognize what you say.
	Now, I don't speak for him, that's for sure.
	It's a complicated issue.
	I do believe the Israelis are allowed to defend themselves.
	They were attacked.
	On the other thing, I think Trump's highest priority, Mike, would be to stop the killing, stop all the killing.
	The same priority he would have in the Russia-Ukrainian conflict, where we know that there were at least two hopeful strains of peace negotiations that could have ended that conflict, scuttled not by the Ukrainians, but scuttled by our own State Department.
	So they seem to have...
	An investment in both of these theaters in war.
	I think Trump's goal is not war, but peace.
	I think his goal in the Middle East would be to end the conflict and stop the killing.
	I agree with you.
	And I think also with Russia and Ukraine, I know that Trump would work to extricate us and find a diplomatic solution, which is absolutely necessary, to save the lives of the Ukrainian soldiers, by the way, and if Ukraine hopes to exist.
	But let me bring it back to Netanyahu.
	Who is clearly a very bullheaded person.
	He has said publicly that he will not respect any decision of the International Court of Justice or the ICC. That Israel will not be held back by anyone, including the United States.
	And as we're seeing, the Biden administration is having no luck whatsoever.
	You know, Antony Blinken is laughed at by every nation in the Middle East.
	I almost feel sorry for the guy at this point.
	He goes over there to visit with them and they make him wait eight hours or whatever.
	But Netanyahu is not going to listen to Biden.
	Do you think, Roger, that given that Trump has a more dominant personality, for sure, and Trump is more unpredictable, which I think is a very strong asset when it comes to international diplomacy, do you think that Trump could convince Netanyahu to take actions that Biden cannot?
	I think it is conceivable.
	I think he has a better track record.
	First of all, as you know, he forged the historic Abraham Accords, which nobody thought was possible.
	He also kept his commitment to move the Capitol, which every Republican president in my lifetime promised to do, and none of them actually did.
	So I think he has greater credibility, but he also has, as you point out, greater unpredictability.
	The politics of this is a little bit more complicated.
	Strangely enough, you're absolutely right.
	Among those Muslim American voters, there's a huge drop off of support for Joe Biden because of his administration's actions in the region.
	Yet Jewish voters in America who are habitually and traditionally Democrats, Trump makes minor inroads there.
	I should say Republicans do.
	Yet that vote continues to stay largely traditionally in place as it has.
	So I don't think anyone who wants to be president should be viewing this conflict strictly through a political lens.
	They should be looking through the lens of what's best for America, number one, and then secondarily, what is best for our allies.
	But above all, how do we stop the killing?
	I think his highest priority would be to stop the killing.
	And I think he would do whatever is necessary in that case.
	If that turns out to be tough love towards the Israelis, I'm not qualified to say I'm not a foreign policy expert.
	But the stories and the things I see out of the region from both sides are horrific.
	And as a non-interventionist, I would like to just see a stop to the wholesale murder that we will see going on.
	Yeah, absolutely.
	You and I both, we want to see less bloodshed and more international cooperation.
	Because people benefit, obviously, from peace and abundance and trade, right?
	We would love to trade with more of these countries, including Russia.
	The fact that we're no longer trading with Russia means that prices of metals and other raw materials are skyrocketing for the West.
	And this is actually devastating the economy of Germany also that lacks energy because of the Nord Stream pipeline situation.
	So it's really harming not only America but America's allies.
	Well, not only that, but you know this better than I do.
	The current energy policies of this administration towards oil and gas and liquefied gas...
	All this is doing is making Russia stronger and giving them greater leverage.
	So we can say we're anti-Russia all we want, but these policies of limiting fossil fuels in this country...
	Not allowing drilling permits and so on, forcing us back to relying once again on foreign sources of oil is extraordinarily dangerous and is only playing into the strength of both Iran, whose energy shipments and energy exports had trickled off to nothing because of the sanctions that Trump had put into place, Biden removed those sanctions.
	We are strengthening Iran, and we're strengthening the Russians, who have a great source of these things.
	That's right.
	We're absolutely...
	Our policies are enriching Russia's economy.
	So it's having exactly the opposite effect that was intended, I think, by the U.S. State Department.
	Let's talk about the border situation now, because, of course, it's a total disaster.
	Almost 300,000 illegals crossing the border every month.
	It's approaching that number.
	And of course, the Biden administration is encouraging.
	They have been since day one.
	We've reached the point now where even Democrat mayors, mayor of Chicago, mayor of New York and so on, of New York City, are completely alarmed, freaking out, saying that their cities can't survive this and so on.
	This obviously, I think, plays in favor of Trump's election, because Trump is perceived correctly as the one person who will actually insist on doing something to stop the border and build the wall.
	But what do you suppose, again, I know you don't speak, certainly not for the Biden administration, but you do have a lot of experience in politics.
	What do you suppose that the Biden handlers will do between now and Election Day to try to regain control over this issue and make it less damaging for Biden's re-election?
	Mike, I read a very detailed piece in Axios several weeks ago, which kind of detailed internal turmoil and bickering within the Biden administration that led us to this point.
	So essentially, we've had no policy, or I should say a policy of open borders.
	Largely because this administration could not really decide what it wanted to do.
	Immediately upon becoming president, Biden canceled the stay in Mexico policy of Donald Trump, which had been very effective.
	And essentially he threw open the borders.
	It is the informal position of this administration that we have an open border.
	I don't think the number is 10 million.
	I think it is, based on people I know who are experts that I respect, it could be closer to 25 million illegals in the country.
	Yet, last night, I saw Joy Reid saying that the 10 million dollar number is completely unrealistic.
	But then, you know what, she's culturally appropriated my hair, so...
	Who cares what she thinks?
	It is now you can see graphically that the Democrats realize that they have made an egregious error.
	They realize that this is likely to be the dominant issue of the campaign because open borders is what has caused the fentanyl crisis in the country.
	Open borders is what is causing the crime spike in the country.
	Open borders are causing states and counties and cities across the country to go broke as they're required by law to pay for social services for illegal migrants, in most cases, over the needs of U.S. citizens.
	This is a political fiasco.
	So suddenly, the administration went from insisting falsely that the border was secure, Which Secretary Mayorkas and the president's two spokeswomen insisted repeatedly to Biden suddenly blurting out, no, it's not secure.
	I've been saying that all along, which he hasn't been.
	And then trying completely ridiculously to blame Donald Trump.
	Say it was all Trump's fault that the border is open now.
	They keep pointing to the Schumer-Lankford border security bill, which should be called the Schumer-Lankford open borders bill, because it did several things.
	First of all, tucked in there was another $95 million for Ukraine, another $64 million for Israel, another $24 million for, I think it was Taiwan, and another $24 million that I believe and another $24 million that I believe was to process illegals.
	Under that legislation...
	We would have allowed 5,000 illegals to cross per day.
	That's 155,000 per month.
	That's roughly just under 2 million a year.
	So the next president would be locked in to allowing at least 2 million illegals into the country rather than say, oh, I don't know, zero.
	Which is almost where you got to under Donald Trump.
	Illegal crossings had trickled to almost nothing.
	This idea that we need a new law, we need more money, those things are just not so.
	There's a current law in place, it just needs to be enforced, and that takes will.
	And then, of course, as a second part, President Dwight Eisenhower deported 1.3 million illegals.
	Yes, the illegals here can be found and deported.
	It's a massive job, but we have a massive government.
	It's a question of having the will.
	Donald Trump has that will.
	This administration has no intention of doing it because they have a larger plan, which is to change the face of the country.
	You saw it in Blinken's remarks after he met with the president of Mexico.
	You saw it in the remarks of the mayor of Chicago not long ago, where they say, well, maybe the answer to this problem is to make everybody a citizen.
	No, that is not the answer, but that is the way to make sure they can all vote and we know how they would vote.
	A worst problem, Mike, is the criminal element that we're letting in the country, the terrorist element we're letting into the country, the weapons we are letting into the country.
	We're opening this country to criminal gangs.
	We're opening this country to terrorists.
	We're opening this country to criminals.
	And this is for a purpose.
	There's a disproportionate number of military-age men coming into the hemisphere through Panama, coming up from Panama to our southern border and into the United States.
	It's not the only way they're getting in.
	They're getting in other ways as well.
	And many of them from communist China.
	Many from China and many from the Middle East.
	So if you have the perception that all of these illegals are from Central or South America, that's incorrect.
	A very large number of them from China and also from Middle Eastern countries.
	Now, Trump recently said that if Biden wins this election, and of course I'm paraphrasing, but I believe Trump said that that would...
	It would be absolutely catastrophic for the United States.
	He seems to be implying that America might not survive another Biden administration.
	I think most of our audience would agree with that assessment.
	I recently spoke with high-level law enforcement in Texas where I have some contacts actually on the weekend last Saturday told me much the same thing.
	He said that if we don't get Trump into the White House and start deporting these illegals, then the law enforcement resources will buckle.
	They will crater.
	And Trump was talking about how social services will crater under the costs of dealing with all of these illegals, which you already alluded to at the local level.
	This seems to me like kind of what Letitia James is doing in New York City.
	In order to get Trump, they are willing to destroy the integrity of New York real estate investing activities.
	In order to destroy Trump, they're willing to destroy America in terms of illegals coming across the border whom they hope to somehow give the right to vote so that they have a permanent supermajority of Democrat voters.
	Is there...
	Any lengths to which the Democrats won't go to try to defeat Trump, even if it means setting their own country on fire?
	Clearly the answer is no.
	And I guess the biggest problem here is that there are those who think, well, their policies are misguided or they're just mistaken.
	No, I think this is a willful policy.
	They are misguided.
	So hell-bent on destroying Donald Trump and reasserting globalist control of the country so they can proceed essentially to cancel the U.S. Constitution and to turn us into a nation of serfs.
	That is the plan.
	That's precisely what they have in mind.
	It's important, Mike, to always keep in mind their constant use of Alinsky's rules for radicals.
	So anything they accuse Trump of or the Republicans, for that matter, the America First Republicans, is always exactly what they themselves are doing.
	So when they say Trump will be a dictator, he'll cancel the next election.
	No, actually, who is it that's trying to lock up the leading candidate for president of the opposition party?
	Why, that would be the Democrats.
	Who is it that is trying to cancel and censor and silence anyone on the Internet, anyone on social media, anyone in the public forum, in any public forum who disagrees with their approved narrative?
	Why, that would be the Democrats.
	Who is it that spied on 178,000 American citizens without warrants, surveilled them?
	That's a number that comes from the government themselves.
	That would be the Democrats.
	Who is it that...
	Dipped into the 702 database to collect information on over 4 million Americans?
	That would be the Democrats.
	Who is it who's trying to keep Donald Trump off the ballot based on some crazed legal theory that he's guilty of insurrection because we say he is?
	Not because he was found guilty in a court of law, but just because that is our opinion.
	Therefore, his name cannot appear on the ballot.
	So, It is interesting that the way they always appropriate the rhetorical high ground to say, you know, he's a threat to democracy.
	Right.
	When first of all, we're not a democracy, we're a republic, we're a democratic republic.
	But secondarily, if there is any threat to our constitutional freedoms, it is not Donald Trump or the America first Republicans.
	It is the Democrats themselves.
	I agree with you, Roger.
	And, of course, we see this also in Europe where they say that Russia's actions are a threat to the rules-based order.
	But the so-called rules-based order doesn't follow any rules.
	They make an agreement and they abandon the agreement.
	The West just makes it up as they go along.
	They do the same thing internationally that they do domestically.
	And frankly, they treat the American people like the way they treat Russia, as enemies of the state.
	You know?
	Yes?
	Well, if you tell the truth about the conflict in Ukraine, you will be immediately called a stooge for Putin.
	Here are the facts.
	It's really very simple.
	We signed two different agreements, both the Budapest Memorandum and the Minsk Accords, in which we agreed that if the Russians allowed the reunification of East and West Germany, we would not push Ukraine into NATO, not a single inch, Secretary of State James A. Baker, a Texan, said.
	Now, we are seeking to put NATO-based missiles pointed at Russia on the ground in Ukraine in violation of both those agreements.
	Now, the unicons would have us believe that this is about...
	Putin's voracious appetite for territory, that first he's going to take Ukraine, then he's going to take Poland, then he's going to take Germany, then he's going to take all of Europe.
	I don't think any of that is accurate.
	First of all, I don't think he could afford to do that.
	But secondarily, he's been very clear that what was unacceptable to him was the mounting of missiles and bioweapons labs in Ukraine to the detriment of Russia.
	And we have violated that.
	Now, if you say that, and I have said it, Tucker Carlson has said it, Alex Jones has said it, Robert F. Kennedy, who I disagree with on many things, has said it, you're immediately branded as some kind of stooge for Putin, that you're pro-Russian.
	Well, my Hungarian relatives were mowed down by Russian tanks in Budapest in 1956.
	I have no great love for the Russians.
	I have certainly no great love for any dictator, of which Putin is most certainly one.
	But I also understand that he's acting now in what he sees as the interests of his country, and we are the ones who are pushing war.
	The Ukrainians would have settled this.
	They had two opportunities to settle this, but those peace talks were scuttled, as I said earlier, not by the Ukrainians, not by the Russians, but by the U.S. State Department.
	Yeah, exactly.
	It's such hypocrisy to hear U.S. authorities saying, you know, watch out for Putin.
	He might censor his people.
	He might jail political dissidents.
	He might rig elections.
	He might rig the court system.
	I'm like, checkbox, checkbox.
	That's what you do.
	You are doing that, Democrats, right?
	Because they're doing that every day.
	They are acting like the worst Soviet KGB agents every single day.
	But let me switch gears.
	We're almost out of time.
	I want to plug your site here coming up again shortly, but let me ask you this.
	Who do you think the Democrats replaced Joe Biden with in August, if that's what happens?
	First of all, I think that is what's going to happen.
	I think that the combination of the impact of Biden's disastrous policies, his inability to perform on the big stage, this constant tendency to forget what he's saying in the middle of a Well, anyway.
	And his inability to stay upright, to spout gibberish, he's clearly in no condition to go into a toe-to-toe debate with Donald Trump.
	He's in no condition to wage a tough campaign.
	Now you add to that the growing evidence of corruption by his family and the fact that the FBI is now charged one of their whistleblowers just doesn't change the fundamental facts surrounding the Burisma case.
	It is indisputable based on what the House Republicans have found that Hunter Biden was being paid tens of thousands of dollars, perhaps more, to work for the Burisma Energy Company.
	And Joe Biden leveraged federal dollars and the threat to withhold them to fire the prosecutor who was investigating the company that was employing his son.
	Those are indisputable facts.
	And that's just the tip of the iceberg.
	There's additional corruption in in China, in Russia, in Romania, in Ukraine and so on.
	So the combination of those three things means in the end, Joe Biden is in no condition to run for reelection.
	I think that he will go through the nomination process and he will collect enough delegates to theoretically be nominated.
	On the eve of the convention, he will either decide or they will threaten to remove him under the 25th Amendment if he does not agree that he's not standing for re-election.
	That does not mean that he's resigning.
	He'd fill out the term, but he would simply not run because they realize that it's not even plausible if they steal it that he cannot beat Donald Trump.
	At that point, he would legally release his delegates.
	The convention would work its own free will.
	And in that atmosphere, I still believe that they will insist upon, demand upon, the draft of the most popular woman today in the Democratic Party, and perhaps one of the most popular women in the country, Michelle Obama.
	Now, the people who know her, like Obama, David Axelrod, the famous Democratic strategist, all say she doesn't want to run.
	I'm sure that's accurate, by the way.
	My guess is she doesn't want to run.
	But what I'm saying not is that she will run, but that she will ultimately submit to a draft.
	Simply because she is potentially their strongest candidate to beat Donald Trump.
	The Democrats know that if Biden remains in place, a major theme for Trump and the Republicans will be, if you're voting for Biden, you're really voting for Kamala Harris.
	Because Biden is not going to survive four years.
	There's a high probability that he doesn't.
	No, we don't wish that on him, but it's a reality.
	And therefore, you're voting for her, and nobody believes that she's capable of being president.
	Doesn't have dementia, but she makes even less sense than Joe Biden.
	And that's an electoral nightmare for the Democrats.
	So I stick to my prediction, which is now two years old, Mike, that ultimately the Democrats will prevail upon...
	Michelle Obama to run for president.
	And then, having promised Kamala Harris a Supreme Court seat, if she graciously steps aside, they will let Gavin Newsom step in with the cash, which he has with unlimited supply for the vice presidency, and that will be their new ticket.
	Kamala on the Supreme Court would be a real-life idiocracy.
	I mean, imagine an actual low-IQ Supreme Court justice.
	It would just be a travesty.
	Now, as far as Michelle Obama, my opinion is...
	I feel sorry for her if she is forced into this position because it would be like living life as a political slave to a system of tyrants and authoritarians that would run you.
	And she would be forced, like Joe Biden is, in essence, he's a biological puppet for his handlers.
	Can you imagine waking up every day and you have to be the theatrical face of an administration of tyrants?
	I mean, it would be a living hell for Michelle Obama.
	Well, except for Barack Obama himself said that in his famous interview with Stephen Colbert, who at one time was funny but no longer is, where he openly says, you know, I've often thought how great it would be if I could just hang out in my basement in my sweats and have a microphone connected to, you know, earphones born by some front man, his words, and essentially have my third term.
	Isn't that essentially exactly what's going on today?
	All of the top aides to current President Biden are alum of the Obama administration.
	So she would basically be serving herself.
	She'd be serving her husband who I think is the single most influential Democrat and probably the single most influential person in the globalist galaxy today.
	So in essence she would be carrying out what was Well, I would rather vote for Camacho for president than Michelle Obama, but that's just some movie trivia there.

	Mike, I appreciate that opportunity.
	A great domain name, too, Roger.
	I mean, thank you for all that you're doing for America, but also I think you've really – You've really branded your site and your position and your focus.
	I think you're very influential.
	I think your analysis is really sharp and spot on.
	And I hope that we can get Trump back into the White House and see you play a continued role in educating America about what we need to do to take this republic back from the tyrants.
	So thank you for all that you do, Roger.
	Well, I appreciate that, Mike.
	Mike, look, I spoke on this about this with our good friend Alex Jones on Sunday night.
	What we need right now is divine intervention for a hard bitten political strategist.
	For me to say that you can see there's been a huge evolution in my thinking.
	But that is the one element that can save America and save Western civilization and save everything we hold dear.
	I pray now twice a day, every day.
	And I know that liberal elites laugh at me and think that's some kind of a joke or some kind of a trope or some kind of a bid for sympathy.
	It's none of those things.
	God never loses.
	With God we can win.
	And I'm absolutely convinced that the Lord will not let this, the last best hope of freedom in the world, be destroyed.
	So prayer is a vital part of my political strategy, of my life strategy, and I ask everyone who's listening to join me in praying for the safety of President Donald Trump and for praying for our country.
	Well, well said, and thank you so much, Roger.
	Bless you, and yes, I pray for Trump's very safe third term as the elected president, because he would be the only president to be elected three times, but only serve two times in the White House.
	What an interesting piece of history.
	All right, well, thank you so much, Roger.
	Have a wonderful day.
