The silent majority is no longer silent. | |
This is The War Room with Owen Schroyer. | ||
Please stand by for further details. | ||
We return you now to your regularly scheduled program. | ||
Ladies and gentlemen, it's Tuesday, August 6th, 2024, and this is the InfoWars War Room, your election headquarters. | ||
With 91 days until the presidential election. | ||
Brought to you by Infowarsstore.com. | ||
We've got multiple breaking news stories today as we go live. | ||
Now, obviously, much of the attention today is being paid to Kamala Harris choosing Tim Walls to be her running mate, her vice president. | ||
So, we're going to talk about what this represents. | ||
We're going to talk about what this represents. | ||
And we're going to talk about what this means for the Democrat Party moving forward. | ||
And then also, how does the Trump campaign recalibrate in their means and mechanisms In order to get people to understand what it is the Harris Walls ticket represents. | ||
And I would say, really, the lack of ad spending from Trump's team right now is startling to me. | ||
They're spending a lot of their money on ads on social media where Trump already has the | ||
majority of support. | ||
They need to be going after mainstream America. | ||
So we'll talk about that, though. | ||
That's where a lot of the attention is going. | ||
Now, this story is breaking and getting almost no attention from the Justice Department. | ||
Any national with ties to Iran charged in connection with foiled plot to assassinate | ||
a politician or U.S. government officials or, more directly, Donald Trump. | ||
unidentified
|
Thank you. | |
What makes this curious is obviously the Iran angle but also the individual I guess got wind that he was caught tries to flee the country Gets arrested on guess what day? | ||
July 12th. | ||
The day before the Trump assassination attempt. | ||
Now, obviously, there's all kinds of different angles to look at here. | ||
This story just breaks today. | ||
It's official justice.gov release. | ||
And... This is probably what they were talking about when it came to, oh, we have knowledge about Iran wanting to assassinate Trump. | ||
They've obviously known about this for a long time, even this individual. | ||
But then the lack of security that day? | ||
Is it just a coincidence that this guy's trying to leave the country the day before the assassination attempt? | ||
Is that just a coincidence? | ||
Is it just a coincidence that as conflict is escalating in the Middle East | ||
and Israel wants to draw us in to help them in their war, oh look, now they can point the finger at Iran and give us | ||
the reason we need to get into the war? | ||
A lot of different angles to this story. | ||
And then there's some other breaking news when it comes to the assassination attempt itself. | ||
So we'll have all of that. | ||
We're also going to be joined by popular podcast host Myron Gaines from the Fresh and Fit podcast. | ||
And we're going to talk with him with his expertise as a former federal agent. | ||
And then we're going to talk the economy with Kirk Elliott in the third hour. | ||
So, a lot of big news to cover today. | ||
I may also have an update with the FOIA request that I filed. | ||
Well, we do have an update. I'm just not sure if we want to break it yet. | ||
So let's be clear. | ||
Why did Kamala Harris choose Tim Walz? | ||
And not Josh Shapiro? | ||
Or even Mark Kelly? | ||
I think a lot of people... | ||
We are overthinking this. | ||
I think this is very simple why Kamala Harris chose Tim Walz. | ||
And I'm sure there were some focus groups and some think tanks and some analytics behind all of this. | ||
But at the end of the day, you know Shapiro could not be on the ticket because he's Jewish. | ||
And the Democrats have a very big anti-Israel, anti-Jew voter block that they just could not risk losing. | ||
And they figured, even though they have an issue right now with the anti-Israel far left, no doubt about it, bringing in Tim Walls, who has major support from the Muslim community in Minnesota, which will also bleed into Michigan, where some of the largest Middle Eastern Islamic communities are, That's where they're going with this. | ||
And so they're trying to salvage that far-left anti-Israel vote with Tim Walz. | ||
But for Kamala herself... | ||
Now, how much say did Kamala have in this pick? | ||
Is, I suppose, up for debate. | ||
I think she made this pick. | ||
I think she made this pick. | ||
Because she loves picking white men. | ||
You know that, right? She just loves picking white men. | ||
Mm-hmm. Except for her clients when she was in her 20s, if you know what I mean. | ||
Then she was into other types. | ||
But Tim Walls is a radical leftist with his policies. | ||
Tim Walls has a track record very similar to Kamala's. | ||
So we can get into some of the dirt on Tim, and we will, and we'll look at some of these details. | ||
But Tim Walz represents something, and this selection of Tim Walz represents something, which is the Democrat Party is now fully committed to left-wing extremism and liberal progressive radicalism, if not outright communism. | ||
Now, I don't like just throwing the accusation of communists out there. | ||
Because you can look at all sides of the political spectrum in America and show how we're getting screwed by communism every day when we wake up. | ||
It doesn't matter how red your state is, you're getting screwed by socialism and communism too. | ||
But when you look at their track record, this is by far, it's not even close, this is by far the most hardcore left-wing radical ticket In the history of the United States of America, even if they wanted to reach for the center, they wouldn't be able to because they're so far to the left. | ||
Now, when Donald Trump comes out and says, oh, thank you for choosing Tim Walz, this is going to be easy on us, it's a joke and there is an element of truth to that. | ||
The same problem persists. | ||
Yeah, let's call out the far left Democrat ticket for what it is. | ||
I mean, look, this is really a watershed moment for the Democrats. | ||
It truly is. This is really a watershed moment for the Democrat Party. | ||
This is not the Democrat Party of your father. | ||
This is not the Democrat Party that might have had some liberal ideas and some policy differences. | ||
This is hardcore, radical liberal progressives that are now running this party with Harris and Walls as their ticket. | ||
That's what this represents. | ||
And the fact they go with Walls, who's just as radical as Kamala, shows this is their commitment. | ||
Now again, are they think tanking this? | ||
Are they running on analytics? | ||
Are they focus grouping this? | ||
Is Obama pulling the strings? | ||
Did Kamala make the decision? | ||
You'll never really know with this Democrat Party. | ||
I would actually argue... | ||
And this is kind of of the minority opinion. | ||
I would actually argue that Kamala Harris has seized the reins of the Democrat Party. | ||
I actually believe that. | ||
I think that Joe Biden's last middle finger to the Democrat establishment that ran a coup on him and threatened to remove him with the 25th Amendment and who knows what else. | ||
I think Joe Biden's final middle finger To Barack Obama and the Democrat establishment that ran a coup on him was, I'm going to give the reins to Kamala, F you. | ||
You really don't think that Kamala is so arrogant? | ||
You really don't think that Kamala is such a control freak that given this opportunity, she's going for full control? | ||
I wouldn't put it past her. | ||
I wouldn't put it past her at all. | ||
I don't think this is what we've expected for years with Barack Obama behind the strings, behind the puppet strings. | ||
I think Kamala has cut the strings, she's gone rogue, and she's going radical. | ||
I mean, if you look at the results Obama, as bad as he was, this is no endorsement of Obama, Obama would at least cater to the middle if he could. | ||
Obama would at least try to hide some of his true tendencies and wouldn't go full commit. | ||
And my guess is Obama, if he's advising or pulling strings, is saying, hey, you got to be smart about these changes, these radical transformations. | ||
Kamala ain't it? | ||
And it's well known. | ||
If you go back just a few months ago, or even years ago, and I've got a clip showing this today, there's all kinds of stories out there with sources in the White House, sources in the Democrat Party. | ||
Barack Obama wants Kamala Harris out. | ||
Kamala Harris is dragging down the Democrat Party. | ||
Kamala Harris has been the worst vice president ever. | ||
Kamala Harris needs to be out of the way. | ||
Who do you think was running that narrative? | ||
I believe it was Barack Obama. | ||
And I believe Joe Biden's final middle finger to the Democrat establishment that ran a coup against him was Kamala Harris. | ||
And she's taken the reins, and she is a radical, and she wants to be a communist dictator. | ||
So she's going for it, folks. | ||
She's going for it. | ||
That's what I believe is going on. | ||
And I think even if there were focus groups and analytics and everything, Tim Walls is radical. | ||
Tim Walls let the left-wing riots happen, and Kamala Harris helped bail them out. | ||
unidentified
|
That's the tag team. | |
That is the tag team that is now the Democrat Party ticket. | ||
So if you're the Trump campaign, you need to really start focusing on that. | ||
Because believe it or not, except for the youth, communism is still not popular. | ||
And this stuff is so cut and dry with the policies on energy, the policies on taxes, the policies on border, and then the results that you can run just straight up neutral anti-Harris ads with just Illegal border crossings, consumer price index, price of energy, price of gas, price of groceries. | ||
Just cut 30 seconds, 60 seconds ads with just these numbers and just bing, bing, bing, bing, bing. | ||
Run them nonstop. | ||
Specifically on the cable networks where you're getting dominated, where you are getting crushed right now. | ||
Yeah, Trump is winning big on social media. | ||
No doubt about that. | ||
So why are you spending money on social media when you're already crushing it on social media? | ||
You get free ads on social media. | ||
Why is the Trump campaign spending so much money on social media? | ||
I don't get it. You own social media. | ||
And for them, they look at the numbers, like from yesterday. | ||
I don't know what the number is now, but it's been seen 100 million plus times where he does an interview. | ||
He flies out Aiden Ross to Mar-a-Lago and does an interview. | ||
And so they see that and they're saying, oh, this is how we win. | ||
This is how we do it. You're already winning there. | ||
It's like if I have Tom Brady at quarterback and then I go out and sign the top free agent quarterback for a max contract, what the hell are you doing? | ||
You already have Tom Brady. You don't need to be spending money on social media. | ||
You need to be spending money on cable news networks where you are getting crushed and annihilated. | ||
And those are the voters that you might be able... | ||
To get out to vote. | ||
Those are the voters you might be able to swing. | ||
But not if you're not even there. | ||
Again, I brought this up the other day. | ||
The Olympics have like four days left. | ||
Kamala is running an ad. | ||
The Harris campaign has ads running nearly every break in the Olympics. | ||
Every single break. | ||
The Trump campaign is not even present. | ||
Somebody explain that to me. | ||
Somebody explain how you are letting the number one TV event right now, with patriotic Americans watching by the way, politically neutral Americans watching, tell me how you are sacrificing that ground and not even having a presence there. | ||
And don't even give me this, we're boycotting the Olympics. | ||
Fine, boycott the Olympics. | ||
I don't care about you. | ||
You're already voting for Trump if you're boycotting the Olympics for whatever reason. | ||
The gay, trans, satanic opening or men beating up women in the ring. | ||
You're not the one Trump needs to reach. | ||
So all these people that are politically indifferent, neutral, on the fence, all they see is the Kamala Harris propaganda and the left-wing propaganda that's just built into these networks, and the Trump campaign has zero presence, zero, zilch, nada. | ||
That is a losing strategy. | ||
Sorry, bad strategy. | ||
I don't get that at all. | ||
And for an RNC and a Trump campaign that usually is good with this stuff, they are batting zero here. | ||
You don't think 60 second, 30 second ad, doesn't matter. | ||
And by the way, you can pay extra juice and have it run against or behind the Kamala ad. | ||
Yeah. So Kamala Harris runs her ads about how she's fighting for a better economy. | ||
She's fighting for secure borders. | ||
She's fighting for schools and education and all this stuff. | ||
And then you run your ad right after that, and you show the price increases. | ||
You show the consumer price index. | ||
You show the energy costs, the gas at the pump. | ||
You show the border numbers. | ||
Why in the hell are you not doing that? | ||
I don't get it. And by the way, somebody floated this out the other day. | ||
I forget who it was. This wasn't my idea. | ||
But somebody said the streaming interview with Aiden Ross was so successful, Trump should just do one of these every day. | ||
Every day he's not campaigning, he should fly out, a popular streamer, a popular talk show host, and just do a sit-down interview every single day. | ||
That's great. | ||
That's free marketing. | ||
That is an easy win for Trump. | ||
There's barely any overhead costs with that. | ||
So that's no doubt huge bang for your buck. | ||
But okay, so you're saving money there. | ||
I don't get it. | ||
How you have no presence. | ||
On the biggest TV event happening in a three-week stretch, and you have zero presence at all, and you're letting the Harris campaign run propaganda without any answer? | ||
So I'm not going to harp on that anymore. | ||
But now, yes, the Democrats have given you the most radical left-wing ticket in the history of this country, and so that's where you focus your sights now, is to explain to the American people how dangerous and radical And, I mean, just call it outright communist. | ||
You know, pick whatever words or phrases you want to use, but now you've got it. | ||
By the way, let's go ahead and show you, and I think it was Patrick Bett David's team that put this together. | ||
It might be floating around out there on X, but I saw it on Patrick Bett David's broadcast. | ||
So again, Tell me how the Democrats and their propaganda agents in the media go from Kamala is bad for the party. | ||
Kamala is in the way. | ||
Kamala's dragging down the ticket. | ||
Kamala needs to go. | ||
Lowest approval rating ever of a vice president. | ||
How do they go from that to now she's the greatest thing since sliced bread? | ||
Well, you and I know how because they're just liars. | ||
They engage in whatever propaganda is in the moment. | ||
But the reason why I find this significant is I think this is really a power grab. | ||
I think Biden has given the reins to Kamala and she's gone full power grab. | ||
Now this could have implications in the next 91 days. | ||
And we'll see if the Democrats do truly rally behind her or not. | ||
But here you go from the Patrick David broadcast. | ||
This is just a couple months ago. | ||
They were telling you how bad Kamala Harris was. | ||
That was the reality in clip 10. | ||
Telling us she's the greatest of all time and how amazing of a VP was and this is mainstream media pre her being the presidential candidate. | ||
unidentified
|
Go ahead, Rob. Of course to say that you have the lowest approval rating of any vice president. | |
Well, there are polls that also say I have great approval ratings. | ||
Twitter members don't like Harris. | ||
How big a drag is Kamala Harris on the ticket? | ||
unidentified
|
She's a pretty big drag. I think she was arguably Biden's worst political decision. | |
They don't like her. There's lots of reasons they don't like her. | ||
Kamala Harris' approval rating is now at 28%, which is an historic low for any modern vice president. | ||
We're here to get from mainstream media, one outlet after another, one leak after another, that Kamala Harris is the worst vice president ever, the worst politician ever. | ||
I think Kamala Harris has been given the reins by Joe Biden and has initiated a hostile takeover of the Democrat Party. | ||
And I think that's what the Tim Walz pick represents. | ||
I don't think Obama wanted Kamala. | ||
I don't think the Democrat establishment wanted Kamala. | ||
I think they wanted an open convention. | ||
But I think Biden gave her the reins and she took it and she ran with it and she said F you to everybody else. | ||
unidentified
|
Because that's who she is. | |
That's what radical communists are. | ||
And she'll be so radical, she'll make Obama blush. | ||
So then there's Tim Walz. | ||
Here's your daily cringe. | ||
Everything about this woman is so phony. | ||
Kamala Harris calls Tim Walls to ask him to be her running mate. | ||
Fair warning here, this is about as cringe as it's gonna get. | ||
Hi, this is Tim. | ||
It's Kamala Harris. Good morning, Governor. | ||
Good morning, Madam Vice President. | ||
Listen, I want you to do this with me. | ||
Let's do this together. | ||
Would you be my running mate and let's get this thing on the road? | ||
I would be honored, Madam Vice President. | ||
The joy that you're bringing back to the country, the enthusiasm that's out there, it would be a privilege to take this with you across the country. | ||
Well, let me tell you, I have just the utmost respect for you. | ||
I have really enjoyed our work together. | ||
You understand our country. | ||
You have dedicated yourself. | ||
unidentified
|
to our country in so many different and beautiful ways. | |
And we're gonna do this. We're gonna win. | ||
And we're gonna unify our country and remind everyone that we are fighting for the future for everyone. | ||
So let's get out there and get this done, okay? | ||
Let's do it. Do the work in front of us. | ||
Let's win this thing. That's right. | ||
All right, buddy. I'll see you soon. | ||
Take care. Thank you. | ||
Wow. Bye. | ||
That was so organic. | ||
That wasn't planned at all. | ||
It's just so fake. | ||
unidentified
|
It's just so fake. | |
Now, let's look at some of the interesting things from Tim Walls here. | ||
Minnesota or Somalia, VP pick Tim Walls changed problematic state flag to be more inclusive. | ||
So let's review here, guys, if you would. | ||
I've got the examples on my desk of the old Minnesota state flag versus the new Minnesota state flag. | ||
So, I mean, you take one look at this, one of them looks like an American state's flag. | ||
One of them looks like what you would expect to be from a state in the United States of America. | ||
And then the other one looks like a foreign country. | ||
It looks like a Middle Eastern country. | ||
It looks like, oh, I don't know, Somalia! | ||
There's the Somali flag. | ||
There's your new Minnesota flag. | ||
Somali, Minnesota. | ||
Somali, Minnesota. | ||
Why did Tim Walz change the state flag of Minnesota to a new rendition of the Somalian flag? | ||
That's interesting. | ||
Hmm. That's very interesting. | ||
I'd be offended if I was a resident of the great state of Minnesota. | ||
I'd be appalled, actually, to take a nice-looking, classical, traditional state flag and turn it into a Somalian state flag. | ||
That's Tim Walz. Tim Walz quit National Guard when he learned he'd be deployed to Iraq. | ||
So he got a promotion. | ||
He was told he would be deployed to Iraq and then he quit. | ||
Oh, I'm sure the Trump draft dodger crowd is going to be screaming about this, right? | ||
unidentified
|
Oh yeah, I'm sure. | |
I'm sure. | ||
Because they're always so consistent. | ||
Natalie Winters. | ||
VP picked Tim Wall's headline to Chinese Communist Party Influence Group's 2019 National Convention. | ||
He was one of their lead speakers. | ||
Isn't that nice? | ||
Very nice of him to be bringing in the Communist Chinese and being their lead speaker. | ||
I wonder how much he was paid for that. | ||
What do you think they... Do you think he got a nice cut of the check there? | ||
What do you think he made for that deal? | ||
Mm-hmm. Now they're rewriting Kamala Harris' history again. | ||
Wikipedia has altered the biography of Kamala Harris' father. | ||
And, of course, this has happened post... | ||
Her getting the nomination. | ||
How convenient. It used to say for Donald J. Harris, it used to say he was of Indian Jamaican heritage. | ||
Of Indian Jamaican heritage. | ||
Now they've changed it and it says he's of Afro-Jamaican heritage. | ||
That's convenient. | ||
They did it right before the election. | ||
Right before the election, they changed that deal. | ||
Perfect timing. | ||
But he's now also transracial. | ||
And so Kamala is transracial. | ||
Her father is transracial. | ||
They're whatever race they need to be to win an election. | ||
They're whatever race they want to be to get your vote. | ||
Kamala Harris, Tim Walls, the most radical ticket in U.S. history. | ||
Okay, so we don't need to look at China as an adversarial relationship. | ||
That's I suppose fine. | ||
But they attack Donald Trump when he says something similar, how he wants to have good relations with China, and then they attack Trump. | ||
But I wonder if they'll attack him. | ||
Somehow I doubt it. | ||
Somehow I doubt it. Here was J.D. Vance's response on the selection of Tim Walz in Clip 12. | ||
This is a guy who's proposed shipping more manufacturing jobs to China, who wants to make the American people more reliant on garbage energy instead of good American energy, and has proposed defunding the police just as Kamala Harris does. | ||
I think it's interesting, actually, they make an interesting tag team because, of course, Tim Walts allowed rioters to burn down Minneapolis in the summer of 2020, and then the few who got caught, Kamala Harris helped bail them out of jail. | ||
It is more instructive for what it says about Kamala Harris, that she doesn't care about the border, she doesn't care about crime, she doesn't care about American energy, and most importantly, she doesn't care about the Americans who have been made to suffer under those policies. | ||
Now, the Trump campaign was anticipating Tim Walz was going to get this election, so they already had this ad ready to go in clip 13. | ||
unidentified
|
What could be weirder than signing a bill into law that requires schools to stock tampons in boys' bathrooms? | |
Or weirder than signing legislation allowing minors to receive sex change operations? | ||
Try electing the man who signed those bills, Vice President of the United States. | ||
Enter Chief Weirdo Tim Walz. | ||
As governor of Minnesota, Walz supported legislation that endangers minors, hurts women, and puts radical ideology ahead of common sense. | ||
Now Kamala wants Walz to enforce those laws on a national scale. | ||
Tim Walz. | ||
Too Weird. Too Radical. | ||
Maybe decide a little ad placement there in, I don't know, the final weekend of the Olympics. | ||
Might be a good idea to let the American people know he's into trans child surgery and butchery. | ||
Might be a good thing to let the American people know he wants to put tampons in the boys' bathrooms in case they start bleeding out of their I-don't-know-what. | ||
You know. Might be an idea. | ||
Might be an idea there. | ||
Now, there's an interesting story here, a huge story, and then an interesting development that hit the news today. | ||
This was from today. | ||
Kamala Harris was dismissed from intense meetings on Middle East War and Situation Room before the meeting was over, so they kicked her out of the meeting. | ||
They kicked her out of the meeting. | ||
Now, why might that be? | ||
I think there's two potential situations here, but let me tell you the news that broke yesterday that could be tied into this. | ||
Major Biden-Harris' mistake gave Taliban $239 million in USAID from Judicial Watch. | ||
A new report from Judicial Watch found that the U.S. mistakenly gave hundreds of millions of dollars to the Taliban after the State Department failed to properly vet awards recipients. | ||
Uh-huh. Yeah. | ||
At least 239 million in taxpayer money has landed in the hands of terrorists since the Biden administration's botched withdrawal from Afghanistan. | ||
The State Department appears not to have followed its own counterterrorism partner vetting requirements in Afghanistan before approving the 29 grants to several local entities. | ||
So, let's give a broader view of this and then get back to why Kamala Harris might have been booted from the foreign intelligence meeting today. | ||
What have we been saying about the situation in Ukraine and the Middle East since Trump left the White House? | ||
They were four years behind in their money laundering and weapons laundering operations in the Middle East and in Ukraine. | ||
Four years behind because of Donald Trump. | ||
He shut it all down. That's how they fund these proxy groups. | ||
Control both sides of these conflicts. | ||
And that's how they arm these proxy groups to control both sides of these conflicts. | ||
CIA, Pentagon, State Department. | ||
So... We're good to go. | ||
So you want to know the major reason why there was peace when Trump was in the White House? | ||
It's because he cut off these proxy groups. | ||
He cut off these quote-unquote moderate rebels or extreme terrorists and all these other groups that the CIA, the State Department, and the Pentagon run to control all sides and use these groups to manipulate foreign policy And get results that they want with regime change. | ||
So, Trump just cut off the money. | ||
Trump just cut off the weapons. | ||
And it all cooled down. | ||
And you were able to actually have peace negotiations. | ||
When all that dirty money and all those dirty weapons were removed from the picture, what do you know? | ||
You could actually come to the table and have peace negotiations. | ||
Biden gets in, floods the money in, floods the weapons in, peace is gone. | ||
It's really that simple, folks. | ||
But if you think $239 going to the Taliban is bad, how many of the hundreds of billions of dollars that they sent to Ukraine ended up in who knows what proxy groups, what terror groups, the Taliban or anybody else? | ||
That's what this is all about. | ||
That's what this is all about. | ||
It's all about the CIA, the Pentagon and the State Department. | ||
Manipulating the world, manipulating foreign policy, manipulating regime change by flooding these regions with cash and weapons and then controlling these groups. | ||
So, why was Kamala Harris booted from the foreign intelligence meeting? | ||
Well, It's either, one, she's such a dingbat clown moron that they didn't want her in there. | ||
She's such a non-serious person that they didn't want her in there, which would also lend to my theory that, hey, they don't want her there either. | ||
Nobody likes this bitch. | ||
Excuse me. So that might be evidence that, yeah, she's doing a hostile takeover of the party. | ||
Nobody actually likes her in D.C. Nobody actually likes her in the Democrat establishment. | ||
This is a hostile takeover from a woman. | ||
Look, it's crazy, but it's true. | ||
I mean, this woman slept her way at the top. | ||
Let's just call it what it is. | ||
But, okay. Or, here's your second option. | ||
Here's your second option. | ||
They removed Kamala Harris from the meeting so that she could have plausible deniability for whatever war crimes or schemes they're plotting next. | ||
Like $239 million to the Taliban. | ||
I could see it either way. | ||
I could see her being such an unlikable, unwanted character that they booted her from the meeting. | ||
I could also see it being, hey Kamala, for your own sake and plausible deniability, we're about to plan some schemes here and fund some terror groups and run some regime change stuff. | ||
So just for your own sake and plausible deniability, since you're going to be president, why don't you just go ahead and get out of here so you have no idea what it is we're talking about or what's coming next. | ||
Could be either way. | ||
Isn't it fun, though? This is the type of activity that goes on in the Biden-Harris, soon to be potentially the Harris White House. | ||

|
Let's do this. | |
The issue of non-citizens voting is very real. | ||
It's a very serious issue. | ||
And Democrats fully support this. | ||
So we'll show evidence of both of these issues. | ||
One... This was in Washington, D.C. Democrats marching so that non-citizens, illegal aliens, have the right to vote. | ||
You have to see it to believe it in clip one. | ||
unidentified
|
We are the immigrants! | |
The mighty, mighty! | ||
Do you think illegal immigrants should be able to vote? | ||
Yeah, I mean, I think if you're paying taxes and you're putting money into the economy for a country that you've lived up for over a decade, yes, I think you should have a voice in the people that are making rules on their life. | ||
You kick us out, you better get a seat right next to us and buckle up, because it's all of us or none of us. | ||
Do you think illegal immigrants should be able to vote in this next election? | ||
I do. I do. | ||
They live in this country. | ||
They have a purpose being here. | ||
And every vote should count. | ||
Everybody should be able to have a place to speak, whether your documentation status. | ||
That shouldn't be affected because you're living in this country. | ||
So that's going to affect you whether you have documentation or not. | ||
It's not legal for an illegal person to vote. | ||
We know that the Constitution says only citizens can vote. | ||
Everyone should have the opportunity to have a path to citizenship. | ||
Why do you think they deserve those citizen rights? | ||
Because they're human. We're all humans and it's a basic human, right? | ||
So, yeah. | ||
So we had these protests here today and it was all about immigration and citizens' rights. | ||
What do you think? A lot of people want to let them vote in the next election. | ||
Do you think they should be able to vote? | ||
It should be open to interpretation. | ||
I think some people should be able to vote. | ||
I don't think you necessarily need to be I feel like they're not really supposed to be in this... | ||
I mean, it's not like they're not supposed to be in this country. | ||
I'm not trying to say that. It's just like... | ||
They're just not official. Do you think all these folks that came across from the last few years should be able to vote in the next election? | ||
I think it's too soon. I think that's too soon. | ||
It's totally too soon. America's supposed to be great. | ||
So we have, like, all the resources and all this stuff. | ||
So if people are supposed to come here, I feel like they need us for help. | ||
So yes, they should have a right to vote. | ||
We're supposed to be the people that make everything perfect. | ||
Who do you think immigrants would vote for in the next presidential election? | ||
So let's explain why one-dimensional thinking is so dangerous, and this video proves it. | ||
Oh, should immigrants, should illegal immigrants, should non-citizens be allowed to vote? | ||
Well, yeah, sure. I mean, they're here. | ||
Yeah, yeah, let them vote. | ||
Oh, okay. See, that's one-dimensional thinking. | ||
That's not understanding action, reaction, or choice and consequence. | ||
So, by that standard, don't you see how they would bring in 12 million people just for the purposes of achieving political power? | ||
Don't you see how they would flood this country with non-citizens just to get them to vote for them to remain in power? | ||
Now, you see the effects in your cities. | ||
You see the effects in your schools. | ||
You see the effects in that... | ||
By the way, it came out, and these aren't even the whole... | ||
This is not even the whole picture. | ||
This is just the official allocated funds in the last fiscal year. | ||
The Biden-Harris administration allocated $66 billion for illegal aliens. | ||
Now again, that's not even the official number. | ||
The real number is closer to $200 billion, but the official allocation was $66 billion directly for whatever illegal aliens need. | ||
How much do you think they allocated for homeless veterans? | ||
$3 billion. | ||
$66 billion for illegal aliens. | ||
$3 billion for homeless veterans. | ||
Correct my math if I'm wrong, but I think that's 22 times more for non-citizens, guys. | ||
unidentified
|
I think that's 22 times more. | |
So see how dangerous one-dimensional thinking is and not understanding action, reaction, or choice and consequence? | ||
They will use non-citizens as a voter block to take your rights. | ||
And they will take money from your pocket, give them to non-citizens so that they vote for the party they want. | ||
But I guess now these people are too dumb to have multidimensional thinking. | ||
Now they've been caught in North Carolina admitting non-citizens are registering to vote Democrat. | ||

Clip 16. You know what? | |
Actually, pause it. Because I'm going to come back to this because I went long. | ||
Let me explain something else before we'll play this in the next short segment before my guest joins me. | ||
Go back, guys. | ||
Just put clip one back on the screen because how can I miss this? | ||
This is the most important aspect. | ||
These are actual Democrats. | ||
This is an actual Democrat-funded event. | ||
They all have t-shirts on. | ||
They all have the yellow t-shirts on. | ||
This is a well-organized, well-funded event. | ||
Do you understand what I'm saying? | ||
This is a Democrat-funded event. | ||
To promote non-citizens, illegal aliens, to vote in U.S. elections. | ||
unidentified
|
Do you get this? | |
So, again, here's the bigger picture. | ||
And we'll play this clip where they're admitting they're registering non-citizens to vote. | ||
In Georgia, in North Carolina, this is the plan. | ||
See, the Democrats stole the 2020 election so big and they got caught that they knew they couldn't rely on all the mechanisms because they had to do it so obviously. | ||
It's like if somebody was kind of jabbing you with like a two-inch blade in a fight, but you couldn't really see it because it was like in between their fingers. | ||
So you're like, oh, what's going on? | ||
But then you kept beating them. | ||
So then they switched to a two-foot blade. | ||
And started slashing you with a two-foot blade. | ||
You'd be like, oh, well, you're using a blade on me. | ||
So, hey, they're using a blade. | ||
Okay, well, we can't use the blade anymore. | ||
That's what the Democrats did in 2020. | ||
With the vote harvesting, the dead voters, the fake voters, the mail-in ballots, you name it, everything. | ||
They stole it so big, so obvious that now we know all their techniques, and so we can watch them and stop them from doing it. | ||
So their only response now is to bring in new voters. | ||
The Democrat Party is totally illegitimate, totally unpopular. | ||
I don't know how many elections they could actually win legitimately with a fair vote. | ||
A legal fair vote. | ||
Not very many. | ||
So they open the borders wide open. | ||
They fund all these programs for a path to citizenship. | ||
And then they fund all these programs to register them to vote in elections. | ||
It's the only chance that they have. | ||
So, I mean, obviously this is bad for the country, but you could also look at it and say, well, the Democrat Party is so unpopular and they can't win that they have to cheat... | ||
By bringing in new illegal voters. | ||
So, I mean, they're extremely desperate and that's how desperate they are even for 2024. | ||
But now they're registering them too. | ||
So we'll have that clip coming up. | ||
So here's from the Oversight Project. | ||
They already caught them registering non-citizens to vote in Georgia. | ||
And now they've also caught them in North Carolina. | ||

|
Clip 16. My fellow Americans, today we are calling on all of you to declare independence from foreigners deciding our elections. | |
The evidence you are about to see relates to illegal aliens being registered to vote. | ||
This is a problem national on scale. | ||
The United States of America is for Americans, and our elections only should be decided by them. | ||
Hello. | ||
We are here with a group, an organization, that is trying to help register Hispanic people to vote. | ||
Are you registered right now? | ||
Yes. Are you? | ||
Yes. Are you citizens? | ||
No. Are you registered to vote? | ||
The apartment complex 220 at Branchview in Charlotte, North Carolina is occupied primarily by non-citizens. | ||
We visited the apartment complex to ask residents two questions. | ||
Are you registered to vote? | ||
And are you a citizen? | ||
Shockingly, four of the 41 people we asked confirmed that they were a non-citizen and | ||
registered to vote. | ||
unidentified
|
We have an organization that focuses on helping Hispanic people register to vote. | |
Are you registered to vote? | ||
Yes. | ||
Are you a citizen? | ||
No. | ||
What country is this? | ||
Peru. | ||
Oh, Peru. | ||
So you're a citizen. | ||
Yes. | ||
So you're a citizen. | ||
Yes. | ||
So you're a citizen. | ||
Yes. | ||
So you're a citizen. | ||
Yes. | ||
unidentified
|
So you're a citizen. | |
Honduras. How many years in the United States? | ||
unidentified
|
It's an organization that is helping the Hispanic people who are not registered to vote. | |
Are you registered at the moment? | ||
Oh, we are registered already. | ||
Ah, okay. | ||
So, if you're a landlord or... | ||
Or what? | ||
For the record? | ||
Yes. | ||
No. | ||
No. | ||
When you were looking for a job? | ||
In the work. | ||
In the work? We came with a group, an organization that is trying to help to register Spanish people to vote. | ||
How many months do they vote for the governor or the president? | ||
Are you registered right now? | ||
Yes. Are you? | ||
Yes. Are you a citizen? | ||
No. No. | ||
You say you're not a citizen, right? | ||
So they're interviewing these non-citizens, and they admit that they've been registered to vote. | ||
And this is where the money to the open border is going. | ||
When they talk about, oh, we need money for processing, this is the processing. | ||
So it's all these non-citizens admitting they're registered to vote. | ||
Oh, a Democrat came by to register me. | ||
They have this whole thing so well-organized and so well-funded, folks, it's unbelievable. | ||
So the Democrats give the money to the NGOs. | ||
The NGOs form the database. | ||
They find them a place to live if they can, keep them on a database. | ||
And then they give that information over to the Democrat Party that shows up at their front door and registers them to vote. | ||
That's what's happening here. | ||
Nearly 10% of those surveyed confirmed that they were non-citizens registered to vote. | ||
If this proportion holds true nationwide, the integrity of the 2024 election is in jeopardy. | ||
So again, do you understand the deal here? | ||
Bring in 12 million illegal immigrants. | ||
The real number of illegal aliens in this country is probably like 30, 40 million. | ||
Who knows? Find a way to get them on a database. | ||
And then when you know their final destination, turn that information over to the Democrat Party, and then the Democrat shows up at their house with the voter registration, hell, they'll show up with a ballot! | ||
Just like they do at old folks' homes. | ||
Just like they do in the projects. | ||
And the Democrats will just show up with their ballot and they'll just say, oh, are you going to vote? | ||
Oh, I don't know if I'm going to vote. | ||
Here, I got it right here for you. | ||
I'll fill it out for you. Yeah, okay, cool. | ||
They've been caught on camera doing this. | ||
So, Vice President Hawk Tua Harris, that's how they're going to win. | ||
That's how she's going to win. All right, joining me now is host of the popular podcast, Fresh and Fit. | ||
It is one of the most popular podcasts when it comes to men men's advice and and even men's politics and | ||
Culture these days, but the reason why Myron Gaines is joining me today | ||
Or the reason why I wanted Myron to join me today is because he has extensive | ||
experience in the federal government and I mean extensive border patrol | ||
Secret Service security FBI investigations. I'm not I'm not sure there's probably less boxes that he hasn't checked off | ||
as Far as his resume than he has checked off | ||
So Myron Gaines from Fresh and Fit joins me now. | ||
Myron, I think this is your first formal time on InfoWars. | ||
I know you've come on live with Spaces before, but I believe this is your first formal time, so glad to have you here. | ||
Thank you for having me, man. I'm happy to be here. | ||
Am I coming in all right? Sound? | ||
Everything sounds and looks great. | ||
Awesome. So I want to get into the assassination attempt with you first and I just want to kind of let you lay out where we're at now with almost a month removed from the attempt and what conclusions have you reached or what are you kind of leaning into right now as far as what happened that day and what led to the security failures that almost had Trump's head blown off on national TV? Yeah, sure. So what I'll start with is I'll kind of get my background so people know what position I'm speaking from. | ||
So I was a special agent with Homeland Security Investigations from 2013 to 2020. | ||
I resigned in 2020 because I was doing a Fresh and Fit podcast. | ||
It started to blow up and they pretty much brought me in and said, hey, look, you got a clearance. | ||
You're going to be testifying in court. You can't be saying the things that you say because I do have some controversial views when it comes to intersexual dynamics, politics, whatever it may be, right? | ||
And nowadays, you know, government's fairly woke. | ||
So I decided to resign. | ||
And, you know, obviously I have nothing bad to say about the agency. | ||
It was a fantastic career. | ||
It was a lot of fun. I EOD'd in 2010 as an intern. | ||
And then I left December 5th or 4th of 2020. | ||
But I was a special agent for seven of those years and three years as an intern. | ||
I started my career in Laredo, Texas, where I specialized in doing Border crimes, such as human smuggling, human trafficking, weapons exportations. | ||
I've worked very closely with almost every major federal law enforcement agency, including the FBI, DEA, ATF. I know how all of them work. | ||
The national security cases, kidnapping, child pornography, child exploitation, counter-proliferation, pretty much any type of investigation you can think of. | ||
I've probably done it to some degree. | ||
I've read hundreds of affidavits. | ||
Million search warrants, etc. | ||
So I know how exploitation of phones work, etc. | ||
And I've also done Secret Service details as well, which kind of brings us to the topic at hand here. | ||
So I'm very familiar how the United States Secret Service works as well, because they're under the Department of Homeland Security, just like Homeland Security Investigations is. | ||
So now that I've kind of laid that out there and people understand what my background and my training, my experience, if we're going to talk about the Secret Service situation on July 13th with Trump, I think it's important to note that Secret Service is an agency that is significantly understaffed. | ||
What do I mean by that? For a very long time, they've had a hard time with keeping agents. | ||
Typically, what ends up happening is someone becomes a special agent, right, and they go over to Secret Service. | ||
And the way it works in the federal government is a special agent is something called an 1811 Job Series Code. | ||
And unless you're going to work for the FBI or DEA and I think maybe the Postal Service, you pretty much have to go through an academy called the Criminal Law Enforcement. | ||
Sorry, the Criminal Investigator Training Program, CITP. And when you go there down to Fletzi in Brunswick, Georgia, the Federal Law Enforcement Training Center, you get the certification, and it takes about three to four months to complete, and then you go ahead and you go into your add-on training. | ||
So in my case, I went to CITP first. | ||
I was there with ATF agents, Secret Service agents, EPA, pretty much every 1811 position. | ||
Then there's an add-on training, which I went to, which is called HSISAT, or Special Agent Training, right? | ||
And Secret Service has its own add-on. | ||
But why do I say this? I say this because When you become a Secret Service agent, you've completed a CITP, it allows you to laterally move over to other agencies, right? | ||
So, what happens a lot of times is guys become an agent with Secret Service, they'll get on, They'll do a couple of years. | ||
They'll get their, you know, experience in. | ||
Maybe they'll get a CFA background, whatever. | ||
And then they'll realize, hold on, I'm not really doing criminal investigations. | ||
I'm traveling all over the place doing protection details. | ||
This sucks. I'm doing, you know, 10, 12, 18 hour shifts guarding a garbage can to protect The daughter of a former president. | ||
You know what I mean? And you're like, what the hell? | ||
This sucks. So Secret Service is not all the glory and fun like people think it is because protection is their biggest... | ||
That's their biggest thing, right? | ||
That's the most important thing that they do. | ||
Now, they were originally founded to investigate counterfeit currency, financial crimes, etc., retail fraud. | ||
They do that as well, but a majority of Secret Service... | ||
Which that needs to change, obviously. | ||
I don't get that at all. | ||
Yeah, it's strange. I mean, they need to delegate that to another agency that has more investigative | ||
power or more investigative resources, which I'll talk about that here in a second, which | ||
is why the FBI took this case. But from an investigative standpoint, so what ends up | ||
happening is they have a lot of attrition. The agency almost always loses agents because | ||
the guys come on, they're like, this job sucks, etc. The Secret Service has the highest divorce | ||
rates in the federal government for any law enforcement position. It's one of the toughest | ||
positions to keep a family with, right? You're traveling all the time, very stressful, etc. | ||
And you don't really do investigation. Most people want to sign up and actually do cases, etc. | ||
So that's number one, right? So they rely very heavily. And that leads me to my next point, | ||
which is the failures on that day. | ||
So Secret Service relies heavily on other agencies to help them. | ||
As you guys know, where the shooter was, that area was designated for state and locals to be set up there, right? | ||
Which I think was a big mistake. They should have done that. | ||
They should have, obviously, you know, used your law enforcement partners, right? | ||
State and locals, other law enforcement agencies, etc. | ||
But they should have had a Secret Service guy there to manage that part because of how important it is and also | ||
because it has high grounds, right? | ||
And HSI agents, what they do a lot of times is we come in and we augment the Secret Service on election years when | ||
people are doing campaigns, etc. | ||
But at the end of the day, we're all different agencies. | ||
We all have different missions, different trainings, etc. | ||
So Secret Service relies way too much on other agencies. | ||
And that's kind of why we have the problems that we have in this situation, because they relied on an outside agency to cover an area that they should have been covering themselves. | ||
Well, I'm, you know, It's important to kind of look at the, let's say, non-conspirational aspects here, right? | ||
And I think that that gives us a better ability to understand what could have or would have gone wrong, whether intentionally or not. | ||
So how often then, Because basically what we're told is that it was a miscommunication issue. | ||
That's how nobody ended up on that roof. | ||
It doesn't seem to make sense to anybody. | ||
Certainly it doesn't make sense to me. | ||
But how often might there be a communication issue between Secret Service and whoever they're getting help with, local law enforcement, state law enforcement? | ||
unidentified
|
Is that common? Yeah, sure, I can speak to that in detail. | |
So, it is very common, and I'll explain why. | ||
When you work with other law enforcement agencies and operations, right, it could be a protection detail like this, it could be a search warrant, it can be an arrest warrant, right, and you're working with other agencies, Different agencies use different radios, and different radios have different keys, different frequencies, different channels that they use, etc. | ||
So when you work with other agencies a lot of times, and you're the lead agency, which is why I've been saying this for a while now, that this is 100% Secret Service's fault, they can go ahead and complain and say, hey, well, the state and local guys weren't there where they were supposed to be. | ||
They were supposed to be on the roof, but they said that they were hot. | ||
They left their posts, etc. That's irrelevant because at the end of the day, the Secret Service is the lead agency. | ||
So since you're the lead agency and you have the main authority, you put people where you need to put them, and then you should always put one of your guys there as well to ensure that the agencies that are supplementing you are doing what they're supposed to do. | ||
Because at the end of the day, the Secret Service has a unique mission, which is protection. | ||
You got local guys there where their training and experience is for local law enforcement, right? | ||
They don't have the same mission. So you have to put someone over there to kind of oversee it. | ||
Not to say that they're, you know, baby them or whatever, but it makes sure that things get done smoothly. | ||
Now, going back to the communication thing that you discussed. | ||
Radios are huge, right? | ||
And when you work with other agencies, you need to be able to give, you know, typically what will happen, right? | ||
When I ran operations, you'd have a couple of your agency radios, right? | ||
So I'd have HSI radios and I'd give them to my state and local partners or other federal agencies, as a matter of fact, so that we can all communicate. | ||
But technology is technology. | ||
Sometimes it doesn't work. | ||
Sometimes it doesn't work. It doesn't hit properly. | ||
Batteries die if you're doing a long operation. | ||
They can't figure out which channel to go on. | ||
They're not familiar with the radio, etc. | ||
So there definitely was a communication breakdown. | ||
And I think the acting director of the Secret Service, Roe, and the deputy director of the FBI, his name escapes me right now, but they recently testified about last week about this. | ||
A bait. | ||
I forget. I think it was a bait. | ||
Yeah. And then a week prior, Ray, the director of the FBI, had testified as well. | ||
And I predicted this back on July 13th, 14th, that I said, I guarantee you there was a communication problem, and radios weren't hitting, they weren't able to get a hold of the Secret Service quick enough, and lo and behold, when they come into the testimony, it's just like I predicted. | ||
Because whenever you work with other agencies, it's almost like an inevitable issue, is that there's going to be a communication breakdown based off radios and different agencies using different frequencies, etc. | ||
Well, I don't know if you picked up on this, because to me... | ||
When Roe was testifying, he got into how there might have been an issue on the comms and maybe they weren't on the right channels or they couldn't reach out to law enforcement. | ||
And we can get to the time of response. | ||
But he said something. | ||
Something stuck out to me. I want to know if you heard it how I heard it. | ||
He claimed... | ||
He said it, that Secret Service was monitoring all comms that day. | ||
So they were monitoring all comms, including the local comms, the Butler PA comms. | ||
They had ears on all comms, not just their own encrypted comms at their headquarters on the building where eventually the guy climbed the roof and took the shot. | ||
So, I mean, is that a normal thing? | ||
And if they have ears on all comms, then they had to know there was a shooter on the roof. | ||
Yeah, I mean, it's possible. | ||
I mean, if they're running a command post, typically that's how it would be. | ||
I'm not 100% sure if they were running a command post for this specific operation. | ||
But the way I when I watched the testimony, it seemed to me as though they didn't know that there was a firearm. | ||
They had known about the individual or local law enforcement had known about him for a while. | ||
But Secret Service didn't get the information until later. | ||
And then what he testified to, which is I'm just going off what he testified to. | ||
He basically claimed that he did. | ||
They didn't know that there was a weapon involved. | ||
Until it was almost too late. | ||
And then obviously we know that the local law enforcement officers, one guy climbed up to the roof. | ||
He was dangling there. | ||
And then the shooter saw him and he kind of dropped off and fell. | ||
Actually, I think he actually injured himself. | ||
And then seconds later, the shots were fired. | ||
So that, you know, I guess was kind of good because, you know, thank God it didn't hit former President Trump because he probably was scared because he knew at that point that he only had seconds to take a shot and he missed. | ||
So that's kind of what happened. | ||
I mean, we can speculate, but there was definitely, you know, without a shadow of a doubt, there was a communication breakdown. | ||
And, you know, it's fairly common, unfortunately, whenever you work with other agencies in this situation. | ||
Well, here's my kind of hiccup, and I'll get your response to this, too. | ||
And I will follow up with the question for you on the time of response, and you can get into that. | ||
But, you know, here's my issue is, well, because we can sit here and talk about We're good to go. | ||
When the deep state wants this guy dead for eight years. | ||
So it's like these two conflicting things. | ||
It's like, okay, well, if I just look at this from a series of errors that led to this versus I know the deep state wants him dead, to me, okay, what weighs more? | ||
The deep state wanting this guy dead weighs more. | ||
Yeah. No, I mean, again, this was such a bad blunder that people think it's an inside job or whatever it may be, which obviously I'm open to hearing other perspectives as well. | ||
I actually took some notes from the testimony. | ||
So approximately 5.50, and this comes from the FBI timeline that Abate testified to, He said at approximately 5.50, USS got the info on the suspicious person. | ||
And we know the shots went out around 6.10. | ||
So they had roughly 20-plus minutes to make something happen. | ||
So this, I mean, there's no way around it. | ||
This was an extremely huge blunder by the Secret Service. | ||
It was a big fuck-up. And, you know, you can absolutely, I can see why the American public is coming to the conclusion that, hey, was this planned? | ||
Was this an inside job? Did you guys try to kill this man? | ||
I could absolutely see why people would think that. | ||
So let's talk about the time of response then. | ||
You mentioned the 550. | ||
It would also appear that they had him as a suspicious individual on the ground even before that. | ||
It would appear that they knew a guy was on the roof maybe even five minutes before the first shot was fired. | ||
Does this response time add up to you? | ||
It's shitty. It's very slow. | ||
I'm looking here at my notes. It says here the PD, kind of at 5.10 p.m., they had him as a suspicious person. | ||
And then by 5.14, the local SWAT took a photo of him. | ||
So they had a photo of the guy and they were looking at him as early as 5.14. | ||
Some people say even earlier. | ||
But they saw him for the very first time at 4.26. | ||
It was the first time they spotted him. | ||
And is that the time they took the photo? | ||
They took the photo at 514 p.m. | ||
So 426 ACM. I got the timeline here. | ||
I'll read it real quick for you. 426, law enforcement season for the first time. | ||
510, they call him a suspicious person. | ||
514, they take a picture of him, the SWAT, the local SWAT team. | ||
532 is next to the AGR site. | ||
550, United States Secret Service gets the information, which makes sense because they probably took him a bit to relay that information. | ||
And then at 606, he climbed the roof. | ||
608, he was on the roof. | ||
And then 6-10-11 is when the officer climbed up and saw him there, and then he falls off. | ||
And then at 6-11, the shots are fired seconds after the officer saw him. | ||
So that's a rough timeline here from what the FBI put out on that testimony. | ||
So here's another crazy aspect, bringing up the photo. | ||
The photo was taken from the window of the second-story building, which became a topic of conversation here because they claimed, well, we abandoned the roof, but we had people in the building, which they did have people in the building. | ||
We now have that confirmed via the body cam footage. | ||
It looks like that was either some semblance of a headquarters or a makeshift headquarters that day for law enforcement. | ||
Maybe a spot where they just station equipment or just cool off, whatever. | ||
So we know that picture right there, that was taken from the second story window of the building where they were stationed in. | ||
So, I mean, what about that? | ||
Does that make sense that they're in the window, that they can take this photo, but then they're not in the window when the guy's climbing on the roof? | ||
Yeah, so... | ||
The two officers, right, when they went looking for him around 6 o'clock, they left their post to go looking for him when they called this suspicious guy, and that's how they missed him for a bit. | ||
They actually lost track of him for a few minutes. | ||
So this is just a major mess up here. | ||
This is just gross ineptitude, colossal failure. | ||
There's no way around it. | ||
You got to do better. | ||
And then the fact that they didn't secure the roof to me is inexcusable. | ||
Absolutely inexcusable to not secure the roof. | ||
I mean, Secret Service knows better than that. | ||
And this is what happens a lot of times when you rely on other agencies, right? | ||
You always put your guys in the most important positions, right? | ||
So, for example, if I'm running an operation and I know I'm gonna go arrest a drug trafficker that I've been investigating for a while, The guys that go hands-on with him, I'm going to make sure they're guys that I know or it's going to be me, right? | ||
It's going to be me or guys that I know that are involved in the case and have some kind of stake in the case because when they grab him and they cuff him up, he might make spontaneous utterances, right, without Miranda that I'm going to need to know later on. | ||
So the same thing applies here. | ||
You got high ground. You need to put your guys there, not rely on the state and locals so heavily where you want their sniper team to go ahead and supplement. | ||
You know, put your guys on the roof because shit like this happens where, oh, it's hot. | ||
We're going to, you know, take a rest inside. | ||
No, that's inexcusable because they don't have the same level of scrutiny if something goes wrong. | ||
And now Secret Service is dealing with the ramifications because they can, you know, Cheadle tried to point the finger at the state and locals to say it's their fault, blah, blah, blah. | ||
No, it's yours because the Secret Service was the lead agency on this operation. | ||
It's on you every single time. | ||
Well, this is criminal negligence at the very least. | ||
The fact that nobody's been fired, if not criminally investigated, is an issue in and of itself, maybe even suspicious in and of itself. | ||
You know, here's another question I would ask you, too. | ||
And this is just trying to line up. | ||
I'm sorry? I said I could speak to that as well as far as like firings and stuff like that because there's a little bit of confusion with that as well. | ||
Well, go ahead and speak to that and then I'll ask my follow-up. | ||
Sure. So I think it's important for the public to know that there's multiple investigations going on right now as we speak, right? | ||
So you have the FBI doing the criminal investigation on Crooks. | ||
They're solely focused on him, identifying co-conspirators, motive, etc., right? | ||
They're doing a deep dive on him. | ||
That's why they have all his phones, his electronic devices, etc., The Secret Service Office of Professional Responsibility and Office of Inspector General, right, which is, think of it more as like an internal affairs, they're doing an investigation into what happened that day, was, you know, the negligence, who was involved, who was the team lead, where are the gaps, et cetera, right? | ||
So there's probably going to be an administrative investigation being done by OPR, Office of Professional Responsibility, and then a criminal one being done by OIG, right? | ||
They're probably working this together. | ||
Then, obviously, you've got all the congressional investigations being done, etc., on that side. | ||
And then I think, if I'm not mistaken, Mayorkis is going ahead and getting another entity involved to investigate the overall incident. | ||
So there's multiple different investigations going on, and depending on who you ask, they'll be able to provide you information on certain things. | ||
So as far as the firings goes, and I'll be quick on this, so I don't like... | ||
Go too much in the weeds. We could go in the weeds if you want later, but I'll give your audience just a general overview. | ||
The way it works is whenever you're doing an administrative investigation from an OPR standpoint, it's typically going to be non-criminal and administrative, and you're going to have to bring these people in and ask them questions with Garrity rights, not Miranda warnings, but necessarily Garrity, which is you're going to swear them in and ask them questions. | ||
That, then they'll be administratively punished all the way up to, depending on the level of negligence, termination. | ||
But a lot of the times, that's gonna be left to a deciding official to do. | ||
So OPR is gonna do their case, right? | ||
If there's anything criminal, OIG will take a criminal. | ||
Like, let's say someone lies during their interview or whatever, then that'll go criminal 1001, false statements. | ||
But if it's strictly administrative, What's going to happen? | ||
OPR is going to do their investigation, take their findings, give it to somebody called the special agent in charge, okay? | ||
And typically for most agencies, the special agent in charge is the deciding official to see if that individual is going to be fired or not. | ||
But they've got to complete the investigation first, then turn it over to the SAC, and then he's going to make the decision. | ||
So this is just a drawn-out bureaucratic process, is what you're explaining to me here? | ||
Essentially, yes. Okay. | ||
One more question here before we hit the break on the activities, because to me, I see this and I'm just like, how the hell does this happen? | ||
When you have people, a situation where people are running around screaming, you know, guy on the roof, whatever, like, okay, maybe you're the Secret Service on the stage and maybe you don't know what's happening, you don't have the comms, whatever, but you see there's a clear disturbance. | ||
You see there's clearly some commotion over here. | ||
Why no response at that moment? | ||
Like, why not at least maybe just get Trump off the stage or maybe just enter the stage? | ||
Like, why no response when you have a clear commotion going on over here? | ||
You don't know what it is, but it's like, why no response to that? | ||
Because to me, I'm like, okay, duh, commotion. | ||
Let's just protect the principal. | ||
Yeah, no, it's inexcusable. | ||
You know, me, like many Americans, were absolutely, you know, appalled and shocked that this happened. | ||
You know, I actually was an agent under the Trump administration, and I will say that it was great to serve under him. | ||
He was very pro-law enforcement, very pro-going after... | ||
Drug cartels, illegal immigration, etc. | ||
So it was ridiculous that they allowed that to happen. | ||
It really is. It still boggles my mind to this day that they even allowed someone to get on the fucking roof and shoot the former president. | ||
It's absolutely ridiculous. Well, and I'm just curious, because I see the mainstream media wanting to move on from this, if not just bury it, with the other political developments. | ||
Is this something you're continuing to cover on your shows? | ||
Yeah, absolutely. I did a stream on it recently. | ||
I've been reacting to all the congressional inquiries, you know, which, you know, I have my criticisms on that side as well. | ||
But no, I've been following it and, you know, I definitely want to get to the bottom of it and figure out what the hell is going on with Crixton following the investigation. | ||
Explaining it to the audience, because there's a lot of things going on behind the scenes that the American public might not be aware of as to why things are occurring the way that they are. | ||
And you've certainly shed a light on some of the bureaucratic process and just some of the things that happen in the process of securing an event. | ||
Myron Gaines, my guest, from the Fresh and Fit podcast, from Fed Reacts, and so much more. | ||
We'll be right back. All right, a couple other angles I want to cover here with Myron Gaines. | ||
Host of the popular Fresh and Fit podcast. | ||
By the way, you can follow him on xunplugfit.com. | ||
And his experience as a federal agent is very key when it comes to getting some questions and answers about what went down that day, July 13th. | ||
There's a breaking news story I want to get from him first, but I want to go with some of the ins and outs that we discussed in the last segment as well before we get to the breaking news today. | ||
You brought up something, and I've heard this from other former Secret Service agents as well. | ||
You brought up the divorce issue, and it was basically like, okay... | ||
You know, the Secret Service job is not a job for a family man because you don't get much time with your family. | ||
And I guess, you know, that's probably what leads to the divorce. | ||
Maybe it's the high stress as well and coming home. | ||
It's a multitude of issues. | ||
So you have that high divorce rate. | ||
But then it's also, I hear from some of the younger single guys that serve in the Secret Service and they say, well, you know, you'd think, hey, this is a thing for single guys, but then I work a 12, 18-hour shift and I've got to do my dishes. | ||
I've got to do my laundry. | ||
You know, I've got a life that I've got to keep together. | ||
So it's not really easy for them either. | ||
And so I look at this and to me the solution is obvious. | ||
And obviously all these bureaucracies are always going to want more money, but Look at the prioritization that we have here. | ||
To me, it's more important to fund Secret Service than to fund Israel or Ukraine or Taiwan. | ||
I mean, you name it, whatever, getting billions of dollars from us. | ||
I mean, to me, you look at a Secret Service agent that literally signs his life on the line, puts his life on the line, is told he has to step in the way of a bullet if it's going after the president. | ||
I mean, these guys, in fact, guys, I don't know what the Secret Service salary is. | ||
Maybe I'm sure it's public information. | ||
I mean, these guys should be making enough money that if you are a single man that's going to take this job, which it probably is more acclimated to it for a young single man to take, then you should be able to afford a maid at least to take care of your stuff while you're working. | ||
I mean, is that an issue? | ||
Do you agree that's an issue? Yeah, you know, I'm against foreign aid. | ||
I agree with you 100%. I don't think we should be sending money to foreign lands to fund foreign wars. | ||
I am very anti-foreign aid, especially with Israel and Ukraine. | ||
And that's a whole other conversation. | ||
I'm happy to discuss it if you'd like. | ||
When it comes to Secret Service, yeah, so all specialists get paid pretty much on the same scale. | ||
It's on the GS scale. And most of these agencies, whether you're ATF, DEA, Homeland Security investigators like I was, You get paid up to what's called the GS-13. | ||
Here we go. Boom. You can easily make well over six figures once you become a GS-13, and then it goes into steps from there. | ||
When I left the government, I was making around 120K per year. | ||
I was like a GS-13, but I was like a step three or four. | ||
But yeah, it's based off of where you also reside. | ||
So in the government, you get locality pay as well. | ||
So like an agent out of New York City is going to make more than an agent out of Mississippi because the cost of living is higher in New York, right? | ||
So that's typically how it is. | ||
You can look it all up on opm.gov. | ||
It puts all their salaries there. It's all public. | ||
And all agents pretty much get paid the same based on your GS scale. | ||
It's something that we need to do. | ||
I mean, Secret Service has a really bad issue with retention because like I discussed before, once they, you know, are on the job for a year or two, they lateral over. | ||
A lot of them actually come over to HSI because we have way more, we have way better family slash work balance. | ||
You're able to work long-term investigations. | ||
You're able to stay in one geographic area and work out of one field office. | ||
So, because Homeland Security Investigations is the biggest agency It's a big reason why people leave. | ||
Look, this is not even really a controversial thing to say. | ||
It just is what it is. How do you make a job more desirable? | ||
You pay more money. Why do some men that travel 24-7 and barely get to see their kids, why are they able to maintain their family and their wives? | ||
Because they make millions of dollars. | ||
This isn't a hard thing to figure out. | ||
I'm, like, mixed on the Secret Service now after all of this. | ||
Trust in the Secret Service, probably not just from me, but amongst America, has just totally collapsed after this. | ||
And I'm not saying that, you know, these agents need to be multi-millionaires, but I would think that if you have this issue, and you want your top guys on Secret Service. | ||
I mean, let's just look at it from this perspective. | ||
You want your top guys on Secret Service. | ||
You want your most committed guys on Secret Service. | ||
You want them protecting the president. | ||
And you want them to have high morale. | ||
And you want them to have a job that is desirable to them. | ||
And pay comes into play. | ||
Absolutely pay comes into play. | ||
And so if you're, by the numbers we put on the screen that you were mentioning, yeah, you're still pretty much taking care of yourself if you're making $120,000 a You're not hiring a maid full-time to take care of your laundry and your dishes and make sure that there's food in your fridge and everything else. | ||
It ain't happening. You're still taking care of yourself with that salary. | ||
So, I mean, yeah, that would be the solution. | ||
I mean, again, now I'm just like, I don't even know if the Secret Service is trustworthy. | ||
But, I mean, wouldn't that be an easy solution to kind of curtail some of these issues? | ||
I mean, even the divorce rate. | ||
Money is one of the top reasons for divorce. | ||
If you have a committed guy who's making more money, his wife's probably going to be a little more forgiving. | ||
I mean, let's just tell it as it is. | ||
Yeah, $300,000, Pierre, typically tends to be the marker where people's divorce rates start to go down a bit is around $300,000. | ||
But I will say that for Secret Service, they are one of the few 1811 positions where they actually get overtime. | ||
You know, the audience might not know this. | ||
It's actually very difficult to get overtime. | ||
It's a special agent job series. | ||
And the reason why for that is because you get something into your salary called LEAP or law enforcement availability pay. | ||
It's 25% of your base salary added. | ||
So for simple math, let's say you start out brand new guy, you're making 50K per year. | ||
They give you an extra 25% on top of that, so you're going to make 62.5. | ||
So you get your 25% in the year. | ||
That's how they're able to hit the six-figure salary or whatever. | ||
But a lot of the times, you don't get overtime. | ||
It's very difficult. But Secret Service and Diplomatic Security Service, which, you know, protecting... | ||
Abroad, those agencies typically are able to get overtime because they work so many hours. | ||
But still, it's still a very tough and grueling job. | ||
I think their biggest problem is they need to get more agents. | ||
That's their biggest issue is they need to get more agents, stop with the DEI hire bullshit, get your top guys, and then have some kind of incentive to keep them in. | ||
Because once guys join, they almost always lateral over to HSI. When I was in Laredo, Texas, From 2014 to 2018, we did a huge lateral announcement hire. | ||
We got like 1,000 Secret Service agents that came over to HSI and left Secret Service because it's easy. | ||
We're all in DHS. They have their 1811. | ||
They got their CITP, which I was explaining before, certification. | ||
So they just come on over and lateral, and it's as simple as they turn on their Secret Service creds, come to HSI, get the new HSI creds. | ||
They could keep their service weapon from over there, and then boom, now they're an HSI agent. | ||
So they need an incentive to keep guys over there. | ||
You know, it's funny. You live and you learn. | ||
And I've been working at Infowars since 2016, and it's amazing the assumptions people have. | ||
It's like, not all that glitters is gold. | ||
And I guess that applies towards the Secret Service, too. | ||
Not all that glitters is gold. | ||
You know, behind the scenes, they've got the same issues, the same difficulties, the same hardships that everybody else has to deal with. | ||
Despite you'd think, oh, well, you're a Secret Service agent. | ||
Wow, you must really be set and taken care of. | ||
Not so much the case. | ||
All right, quickly on the DEI thing, and I'll move into this breaking news from today. | ||
What do you make of this woman fumbling around unable to holster her gun? | ||
What the hell is that? Controversial take on this. | ||
I don't think women should be in law enforcement positions or in combat positions in the military. | ||
I don't think that's controversial at all. | ||
Yeah, you know, because I get all the people that get angry at me and call me a sexist or a massagist. | ||
Yeah, the reality is, man, they just shouldn't be in certain positions, right? | ||
When I was an agent, right, and I was, you know, doing operations plans, right, because you have to do operations plans anytime you're going to do any type of enforcement action, which, by the way, I guarantee they had to do some kind of operation plan for this detail, and the agent that signed off on that operation plan is the one that they need to bring in and ask questions. | ||
That's the best person to ask questions. | ||
Ro isn't the best, right? Because you need guys that were on the ground that day so you can ask them the intimate, detailed type questions. | ||
But all jokes aside, the situation with these DEI hires and women in law enforcement is there's a lot of invested, there's a lot invested to get women into law enforcement position. | ||
There's, you know, throughout the federal government, especially for the law enforcement gigs, 1811s, there's female only announcements, there's minority only announcements, right? | ||
They want to get these people in. They want to go ahead and be More diversified, etc. | ||
When you mean announcement, is that like a job posting? | ||
Yeah, they make women's only job postings for a lot of these law enforcement agencies. | ||
So, in an effort to be more inclusive. | ||
And then, obviously, they have lower standards when it comes to physical fitness tests or whatever. | ||
And I'm not a fan of that. | ||
I think if women are going to be in law enforcement or they're going to be in the military, they're going to be in combat positions where we're talking about life and death, life or death, there needs to be one physical fitness standard. | ||
There needs to be one standard for both genders. | ||
Because if I get... If I get hurt, I need that woman to be able to pull me to safety. | ||
So if she could pass the physical fitness test, cool. | ||
She deserves to wear that gun and that badge and be alongside me. | ||
But if she can't, then that's a problem because you effectively dilute the quality of the workforce for what? | ||
To be politically correct? Fuck that. | ||
Or F that. Sorry. Well, yeah. | ||
This is the real issue here. | ||
And, you know, here's what's crazy about it. | ||
They can bring in these DEI hires for... | ||
Whatever sectors, whatever's in the private sector, maybe even in the government sector. | ||
When you're talking about a position where you have to have hands-on abilities, right? | ||
A doctor, or in this case, Secret Service. | ||
There should be one test, one physical test, and if you can't pass it, like you said, you shouldn't serve. | ||
Now there's a whole other test that should go maybe into this. | ||
I don't know what kind of tests they run on agents as far as, you know, maybe mental stability or psychological stability. | ||
But, you know, there's an issue there as well, and that might be getting... | ||
A little deeper into this issue, but I think it all applies here. | ||
And so when you just decide, oh, we're going to lower the standard for a situation that could be life or death, well, guess what? | ||
You've just increased the chances of death. | ||
Absolutely. All right. | ||
I want to move on to the breaking news today. | ||
I think we've got that issue through. | ||
This is the breaking news today, and it just broke a couple hours ago. | ||
So if you haven't seen this yet, I'm not trying to put you on the spot, but I know you'll be able to comment, generally speaking. | ||
From the Justice Department, Pakistani national with ties to Iran charged in connection with foiled plot to assassinate a politician or U.S. government officials. | ||
It's Trump. Of course, they don't put that on their headline because the Justice Department doesn't want to give Trump that juice, that street cred, if you will. | ||
Obviously, there's things that stick out for me when I see this. | ||
One, Israel has been trying to get... | ||
The United States into their war with Iran forever. | ||
I mean, you could say this week, this month, since October 7th, for decades, they've been trying to draw the U.S. into their war with Iran. | ||
So obviously I'm sitting here and just thinking, well, okay, is Israel trying to draw us into a war with Iran by assassinating President Trump? | ||
That's not where my thoughts went originally. | ||
But then immediately the plot of, oh, it's Iran, and now this thing out today... | ||
What's even stranger about this, and it could be nothing, but I can't help but notice the significance of the date here. | ||
This guy was being tracked by the FBI. He tries to flee the country on July 12th, Myron. | ||
On July 12th, the day before the assassination attempt, he's caught trying to flee the country and arrested. | ||
And then they release this for immediate release from the Justice Department today. | ||
So again, this came out today. | ||
If you haven't seen it, I'm not... | ||
I'm not trying to ask you anything too important here, but just generally speaking, what are your reactions? | ||
As we speak, I'm going on Pacer right now to look up the criminal, because it looks like they arrested him here on a criminal complaint. | ||
So we can actually go ahead and look at their investigation. | ||
But yeah, that's odd timing, right? | ||
Because they've been trying to link Iran to this Trump assassination for a few weeks now. | ||
I mean, whether it's J.D. Vance talking about Iran as soon as he assumed the VP position. | ||
Obviously, you know, Trump had said that if they try to, if I die or whatever, you know, make sure you wipe Iran off the face of the map. | ||
We know that Netanyahu was here a week or so ago, two weeks ago, talking about Iran and saying that we need to go ahead and create this Abraham alliance, etc. | ||
It's all posturing. | ||
To go to war. And I don't think that's in our best interest right now, and I don't think we should be fighting Israel's wars. | ||
I think it's caused us a lot of problems. | ||
We saw what happened in Iraq in 2003, going after Saddam Hussein and the weapons of mass destruction lie back then. | ||
And this is no different, right? | ||
I think Netanyahu is using October 7th as a justification to go to war with all of his enemies, whether it's Lebanon, Iran, etc. | ||
And obviously we're in a very turbulent time right now because we're waiting on our Iranian response. | ||
The Hezbollah leader had a speech earlier today as well. | ||
So these are just very scary times from a World War perspective. | ||
And I don't think we should be getting dragged into Israel's problems. | ||
And I mean, it made no sense that we went after Saddam Hussein because he had nothing to do with 9-11. | ||
I mean, matter of fact, a lot of people don't know that Saddam Hussein and Osama actually hated each other. | ||
So why would they be aligned to come and attack the United States? | ||
You know, 9-11 is a whole other issue. | ||
Well, it's probably similar reasons why we went after Libya is that the U.S. doesn't like any strong independent republics in Africa or the Middle East, especially on important oil routes. | ||
And so I think that that all ties in, besides just obviously the Israel loyalist issue that happened in our government as well. | ||
So I don't know if you want to expand on some of these foreign developments, especially considering the kind of tit for tat that goes on now between Israel and all these other groups. | ||
And I look at it like this. | ||
The only reason why for years Israel has been confident in engaging in mostly whatever it wants around the world is because they have the United States backing. | ||
I also am suspicious that I just feel like, how is it every time, like even recently, every time there's an attack against Israel, they seem to know it's coming. | ||
So part of me feels like there's an entire game being played on the United States right now, and we're just getting fleeced. | ||
We're just getting fleeced for all of our money, Myron. | ||
Yeah. Yeah, no, I 100% agree. | ||
You know, whether you want to talk about Ukraine, where we're funding this losing war with Russia. | ||
I remember since 2022, I've been saying for a long time that this is a losing war. | ||
You know, Ukraine just needs to surrender and go ahead and concede to Putin. | ||
And people were like, oh, you don't know what you're talking about, whatever. | ||
But now, finally, the mainstream media is finally admitting that, yeah, Russia's pretty much won. | ||
They have about 20% of... | ||
I think it's important to point out That, you know, Netanyahu has been kind of using October 7th as an excuse to expand his political agenda and to stay in power. | ||
For those that might not be, no, I mean, your audience probably definitely knows this. | ||
They're going to be aware. But Netanyahu was in the middle of a corruption trial right before October 7th happened. | ||
And when it occurred, obviously he was able to maintain power with the Likud party. | ||
He's been in since because, obviously, this attack united both the left and the right, and he's had a sense. | ||
And he's kind of... And, you know, obviously now they've pretty much bombed Gaza into an oblivion. | ||
They've pretty much gotten rid of a lot of the battalions, the Hamas battalions, and or significantly reduced their influence. | ||
They're in Rafa right now, cleaning up there, and it's like, okay, well, what's next? | ||
Well, let's go after Iran. | ||
Let's go after Lebanon. And they went ahead and used... | ||
There was an attack on the Golan Heights a couple days ago, where 11 Syrian children | ||
were tragically killed. | ||
And then they try to say, hey, well, that was a Hezbollah missile, right? | ||
There's some other information coming out saying that it was actually an Israeli air | ||
defense missile that landed and it was an accident. | ||
Netanyahu used it as an excuse to grab the kids. | ||
But the point is, is that that bombing in the Golan Heights was used essentially to | ||
go ahead and bomb Beirut and kill a Hezbollah leader, and then also to justify an assassination | ||
of Henea, Ismail Henea, and Tehran, Iran, who was the chief negotiator of the political | ||
wing with Hamas, who was. | ||
you know, the one that they were doing business with. | ||
So that obviously sends a message like, Does Israel really want to negotiate? | ||
It doesn't seem that way, because they killed them. | ||
And then another Iraqi commander was also killed in that same 24 hours. | ||
So for them to go ahead and assassinate two individuals within 24 hours, Iran has no choice but to respond. | ||
And I think a big reason why Israel is able to behave the way they do and actual brazenly is because they know that they have American support. | ||
They know that they have AIPAC. They have the Israeli lobbies here that are always going to fight. | ||
To ensure that Israeli interests are always protected, right? | ||
And that's a problem. That's a serious problem because are we really putting America first? | ||
Are we really putting our interests at heart first? | ||
And a lot of times, I would say we don't because we're fighting a lot of Israel's wars and getting into situations and problems that Israel has created that don't necessarily benefit us. | ||
People like to say that Israel is their greatest ally. | ||
I disagree with that. No, I 100% disagree with that. | ||
And if there was any doubt in my mind, it's now there's no doubt. | ||
And I think that this, you know, the image I get in my head is... | ||
The Israel supremacists basically look at the Middle East and say, we're going to do whatever the hell we want. | ||
And maybe they want war with Iran or these other countries. | ||
Maybe they don't. But they certainly want to take over the Gaza Strip. | ||
I mean, that's been made clear. | ||
The standout on October 7th, everything else that we've seen follow, that they want the Gaza Strip. | ||
And so they're going for it now. | ||
And anybody that gets in their way, then they'll have payback for that. | ||
But what they expect is, oh, anytime somebody tries to stand up and puff up their chest, that here comes big bad Uncle Sam, and they're going to stand right behind Israel and say, oh yeah? | ||
Yeah. And so that's what I'm sick of when I can't even drive to downtown Austin without hitting 12 potholes or seeing homeless veterans when I drive down there. | ||
And then when you look at Ukraine and Russia, you know, to me it's like the approach here needs to just be totally hands-off. | ||
If I'm Trump at this point, And this is such a winning policy. | ||
You know, look, the deep state runs deep and all of this funding and international money laundering has a lot of sway in D.C. But to me, this is such winning policy. | ||
If I'm Trump, I'm getting in there and I'm saying we are decoupling from NATO. | ||
You're not going to see a dime of our money. | ||
And we are removing all involvement in Ukraine. | ||
And so it's not about even, and because you said earlier, I'm not saying you consciously | ||
said that, but you said, oh, we should just allow Russia. | ||
It's not even we should allow. | ||
I don't even want to be involved. | ||
It's like we shouldn't allow Israel. | ||
We shouldn't allow Iran. | ||
We shouldn't allow Russia. | ||
We shouldn't, we shouldn't even be involved in any of this. | ||
We should be bringing this money back home and protecting us. | ||
To me, it's all an international boondoggle, and it has to come to an end. | ||
This is the most common sense foreign policy we can have, and yet the propaganda media tricks us with, oh, greatest ally, or oh, Russia's this big threat. | ||
Total BS. I think that the time for that propaganda is wearing thin, which... | ||
Kind of also makes it more dangerous. | ||
I'm just curious, as we're running out of time, did you see the plea deal that was made with the 9-11 masterminds? | ||
Did you happen to see that? Yeah, I did. | ||
With KSM Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, he had a plea deal through the military courts and down there in Guantanamo Bay. | ||
Obviously, since it's through military courts, a lot of that stuff is not going to be as easy to find. | ||
But, you know, it's ridiculous. | ||
And another thing, too, since we're on the 9-11 topic, right, people always say Israel's our greatest ally. | ||
Well, let's go ahead and deal with the elephant in the room. | ||
There's Zionist fingerprints all over 9-11, right? | ||
You could talk about the dancing Israelis. | ||
You could talk about the fact that these guys were identified to be, you know, the intelligence | ||
agents for the Mossad or some other Israeli spy ring. | ||
When they went ahead and interviewed them, they failed polygraph tests, they were held | ||
by the FBI for 70 days. | ||
I went ahead and looked at some of these FBI 302s of the reports. | ||
They asked them, hey, did you guys have prior knowledge of what was going to happen to 9-11? | ||
They went ahead and redacted it. | ||
Then these guys go back to Israel, right, after getting deported by back then INS. | ||
And they go on an Israeli talk show and they talk about how they had foreign knowledge | ||
And they said, oh, well, you know, now you guys get to see what it's like to be an Israeli with terrorism every day. | ||
You know, and then you have, obviously, Silverstein taking out a very strange, you know, terrorist-type We know that the CIA had warned the Bush administration for months that there was going to be an imminent attack with planes, etc. | ||
So there's just too many things here. | ||
And this is why no one believes the official narrative with 9-11, just like with JFK. No one believes it because there's too many issues and too many holes here. | ||
And then we could talk about the phone companies, et cetera, that were Israeli-run on 9-11 as well. | ||
There's just too many issues here. | ||
And this is my problem, where we sit here and we say, oh yeah, Israel's our greatest ally, but they've spied on us. | ||
They've stolen our equipment. They've stolen our technology. | ||
They've stolen nuclear capabilities from us. | ||
Jonathan Pollard, one of the worst spies in American history that damaged us and sold our secrets to the Russians, got out of prison and was able to be sent back to Israel, and he was greeted by Netanyahu. | ||
People need to wake up. | ||
And I think they are finally waking up as to who actually runs this country, who's compromising this country. | ||
And, you know, I'm against these foreign lobbies in here lobbying for their own country. | ||
Like, fuck that. I mean, F that. We need to focus on America first. | ||
Like, it would be ridiculous if we had like a Russian foreign lobby in America where they were pushing Yeah, there's a primary in St. | ||
Louis today where the AIPAC has funded, I think it's $2.5 million. | ||
I think it's the most they've invested since trying to oust Massey to try to oust Cori Bush. | ||
Now, I'm no fan of Cori Bush. | ||
I think she's awful. But AIPAC paid $2.5 million to get this other Democrat in their bell just because Bush was anti-Israel. | ||
I don't like either one of them, but that just shows the influence. | ||
And, you know, I look at it as there's so many mysteries to 9-11. | ||
Right. They have it on their website that 98% of their candidates win their general elections. | ||
So they brag about it. They brag about it. | ||
Yeah. Well, I just look at 9-11, too, and it's obviously there's so many questions, but I think that it's likely probably Israel had intelligence and stood down knowing that this would influence their foreign policy to get their desires in the Middle East. | ||
I mean, I would say that that's pretty much undoubted. | ||
And my issue, too, is as an American, what I see now... | ||
Is that the U.S. has to completely decouple from all Middle East. | ||
It just has to completely decouple. | ||
Doesn't mean we can't coexist. Doesn't mean we can't make deals if they're advantageous for us. | ||
But it's like these wars in the Middle East have been going on before the United States even existed. | ||
And now it's clear to me. | ||
All sides involved are going to try to manipulate the U.S. into doing their bidding. | ||
So that's my final say here. | ||
I'm going to give you the final 30 seconds. | ||
Plug where people can find you and where they can follow all your shows. | ||
Yeah, man. Fresh and Fit on Rumble and YouTube. | ||
And then obviously on my other channel, FedReacts, where I cover criminal cases. | ||
I'm probably going to cover this Pakistani one that you just showed me here. | ||
I'm reading through the criminal complaint right now. | ||
But yeah, check me out there, guys. | ||
We're going live Monday, Wednesday, Friday, 7.30 p.m. | ||
on YouTube and on Rumble. Fresh and Fit. | ||
And then I do FedReacts on Sunday. | ||
And I'm happy to be here, man. It was a great discussion. | ||
I think we're able to bring out some interesting and different perspectives. | ||
But yeah, man. I mean, fuck 4 and 8. | ||
I mean, F4 and 8. Sorry. | ||
F4 and 8. That's my hope. | ||
I think we had enough dump on the switch there to clear it for terrestrial radio. | ||
All right, Myron Grains, looking forward to you covering that Pakistani issue as well. | ||
Thank you for your time. We'll be in touch. | ||
All right, man. Peace. All right, I'm sure you've heard of the popular band, UB40, with their popular record, Red Red Wine, amongst others. | ||
The lead singer, Matt Hoy, who'd been with the group forever, was kicked out for refusing the vaccine. | ||
unidentified
|
Here's the story. I was never anti-vax. | |
I've travelled the world with that band. | ||
I've been to places where I've had to have yellow fever, like, you know, injections like Africa and Asia. | ||
You have to have vaccinations, so I was never anti-vax, but there was just something, when this came out, I just thought, there's a red flag here, there's just something not right. | ||
So I know they would have had that feeling as well, but they still went ahead and had it. | ||
You know, and... | ||
I mean, it's like Astro passed away six months after having the COVID vaccine. | ||
They hate me talking about it because they go, oh, he died of an asthma attack. | ||
No, he didn't. | ||
You know, he had the COVID vaccine. | ||
And I said to my other half, six months, something's going to happen to Astro. | ||
And he did. He died six months after the... | ||
Pops was already showing slight... | ||
Elements of dementia, forgetfulness, things to worry about. | ||
It was just his age, he was 73. | ||
As soon as he had the COVID vaccine, he just went... | ||
It was like a huge dive, and I'd left the band at that point, but I was getting messages from US tour managers saying he's all over the place. | ||
He keeps going back to his guitar case to check on his stuff three and four times to check his guitar's still in there. | ||
As he's put new strings on, he keeps going back, calling me, can we go over there, can we check... | ||
This wasn't that guy, you know, he wasn't that type of... | ||
He was confident, he knew his stuff. | ||
It was affecting him, and that was the vax. | ||
But they will not approach the subject. | ||
I know it's the vax. | ||
I know that's what's done this to these people. | ||
I think there was a recent study just published, I'm not sure whether it was from Japan, which was talking about the effects on the brain. | ||
Yeah. Yeah. | ||
I think it's a lot of underlying health... | ||
Symptoms, the vax attacks anyway, which was one of the main reasons that I didn't have it. | ||
One, the first reason was that I didn't. | ||
It was just a red flag. | ||
Secondly, I suffered from a condition called atrial fibrillation, which is an irregular heartbeat. | ||
And I'd already had a bad reaction to the flu jab because I had a procedure called a cardioversion, which was to shock my heart back into rhythm. | ||
And I was advised by the consultant cardiologist that I was vulnerable to have the flu jab. | ||
So I did. And then on the evening, I was taking a shower. | ||
And I had this huge growth under my armpit. | ||
It was like half the size of a tennis ball under my lymph gland. | ||
And I said to my wife, I said, this is really painful. | ||
This really hurts. And she said... | ||
Stupidly, because we've had vaccines before and I'd had side effects from vaccines, not even thinking about it, she said it might just be a reaction to the vaccine, just let it go overnight. | ||
So I did. The following morning, he threw my heart back out of rhythm. | ||
So, being that it was a SARS vax, there was no way I was touching the flu vax or any kind of vax. | ||
Ever again, you know. | ||
But these people, they just did it for the sheer sake of just working, you know, and carrying on doing what they did. | ||
But it affected them long-term badly, you know, and I'm seeing it still now. | ||
And not just UB40, other musicians and people that I know, it's affecting them. | ||
At the time, they were all like, yeah, well, what are you doing? | ||
You're not working anymore. | ||
You're at home. You've lost everything. And I did. | ||
I lost everything. I had rainy day money. | ||
That's all gone. And I'm literally, I hit rock bottom. | ||
The line I came up with, what was it? | ||
I wouldn't put my life on the line just so I could sing Red Red Wine. | ||
These guys were going, yeah, but I'm still out. | ||
I'm touring now. I'm back out on the road. | ||
Well, that's great. You know, enjoy it while it lasts. | ||
Astro isn't? Astro isn't, you know. | ||
And there's countless other musicians that I know that are not anymore. | ||
They're either dead or they've got some side effect that is preventing them from working there. | ||
So it's like a role reversal, you know. | ||
Well, Eric Clapton, he... | ||
He had something with his fingers that he couldn't play properly. | ||
He had an existing problem, I believe. | ||
But then afterwards, it just shot through the roof. | ||
Yeah, he exacerbated what he had. | ||
When he wants to play, he's in a lot of pain. | ||
Yeah, yeah. And he's lost that. | ||
He's lost that joy. I mean, he can play for a bit, but... | ||
Yeah, what's the point? | ||
Yeah. Yeah, there's no joy in that. | ||
Music should be about being free and just falling into it so your audience falls in with you, you know? | ||
All right, joining us live now is Kirk Elliott. | ||
K-E-P-M dot com slash gold.com. | ||
It's where you can find him. | ||
And we've had a lot of big breaking economic news this week. | ||
And we're going to find out what it all means. | ||
But Kirk, let me start out with this. | ||
We are now at a pace where the interest on our debt is going up on a $1 trillion scale every 90 days. | ||
What does that mean? | ||
Well, I mean, that means we're on pace for $4 trillion of new debt in a year, right? | ||
So when interest rates are where they're at, And we've got all this debt added on top of the $37 trillion that we've already got. | ||
I mean, this is insane, right? | ||
So, Owen, that means just the interest-only payments on our debt is going to be pushing a little over a trillion dollars a year. | ||
That's the interest-only payments. | ||
If you never pay down the principal, you're at a trillion dollars a year. | ||
So, what do we bring in as a nation? | ||
So, we have to start asking these kinds of questions. | ||
Well, We bring in about $4.8 trillion, so if we're spending a trillion dollars in just interest, that's like 20% of everything that we bring in goes towards that. | ||
That number is unsustainable. | ||
It's absolutely unsustainable, but we then have to say, how in the world did we get there, right? | ||
So it's because we were the world's reserve currency, because we were the petrodollar, and all oil settlements had We're good to go. | ||
That's not the case anymore, Owen. | ||
So as of January, when basically almost all of OPEC practically is like part of the BRICS nations with United Arab Emirates and Saudi Arabia and Iran and Egypt and Ethiopia and Argentina, they're all part of the BRICS nations. | ||
And they've said, we're not going to take the U.S. dollar anymore. | ||
We're going to take anything else but that. | ||
Yeah, they kicked us out. | ||
So here's the problem. | ||
We've got all this debt. | ||
We've got all this stimulus. | ||
We keep raising the debt ceiling. | ||
Now our interest-only payments on our debt is a trillion dollars a year, and we have no built-in demand for our currency. | ||
That's an awful thing. | ||
That's unsustainable, and we can't actually pay that back. | ||
Because we've lost the reserve currency status. | ||
So now, politicians, the implications of that, which is kind of what you asked at the beginning, what comes next, right? | ||
After all this stuff, politicians are going to have to have discretion in their spending, in their bills. | ||
Sorry, that's rich. | ||
unidentified
|
I know. I mean, that's something else, isn't it? | |
It's weird to think about. | ||
But, so this is where Trump, when, so, what was it, three weeks ago, Owen, he had said that he's got this plan for America. | ||
He wants to abolish income tax and go back to tariffs and excise taxes for actually the government to make money. | ||
Well, what would that do? | ||
See, this is how the founding fathers envisioned it for America. | ||
We didn't have an income tax in America until well after, over 100 years after America became a nation in 1776. | ||
So if we put tariffs on foreign goods, all foreign goods become more expensive, which is going to do what? | ||
People are then going to want to start buying American. | ||
When people buy American, remember, jobs follow manufacturing. | ||
Then you've got more people working, we're not reliant on imports, and more people are working, more people are spending. | ||
This is actually a brilliant plan, right? | ||
And it's the way that the Founding Fathers envisioned it, but in the era of central banking, they screwed everything up, right? | ||
They screwed everything up, and so then, here's a weird concept. | ||
It's like, if you're a central bank and you could print money at whim whenever you want to, Why even have taxes, right? | ||
Because taxes to me are like the weird, you know, it's like, okay, well, let's just say we have to raise taxes because we're running out of money. | ||
It's like, you fools, you could just print money whenever you wanted. | ||
So they would print money and they would raise taxes and they still squandered it. | ||
This is the problem that we have with our politicians right now, and especially with the left, who wants to You know, basically play Robin Hood and give away everything with entitlements and shut down the economy with pandemics and everything like this. | ||
But here's where I wouldn't say that they're stupid. | ||
I just say that they're evil. | ||
They just have a different ideology than we do, and they want a different outcome. | ||
Their outcome is to get rid of banking as we know it, to get rid of private capital as we know it, and to go with something like what you and I have talked about probably three times, central bank digital currency, which is complete control of a person's accounts and the ability to cut you off from buying or selling. | ||
That's where they want to take us, Owen. | ||
Well, and this kind of gets into the larger corporate world government phase. | ||
I think the phase that we're in right now, and this is why the people that are negative on Trump's plan to cut or remove the income tax and replace it with tariffs, is they don't understand the long-term thinking here. | ||
This is a long-term success plan. | ||
And I think if you kind of look at the stages of globalism here, The first stage, or maybe the second stage, whatever stage, the stage that we've already gone through that's put us at this point is... | ||
We removed manufacturing from America. | ||
And that was then moved to China. | ||
And so now all the goods are made in China or maybe Taiwan or maybe somewhere else in the east. | ||
So they manufacture all these goods. | ||
They get to pay their people a nickel an hour. | ||
You have to pay people here $8 an hour, whatever. | ||
So they cut all these deals in government. | ||
They cut all these deals. We'll ship manufacturing over there. | ||
Instead of producing it here. | ||
And so what happens? Well, your downtown areas, your manufacturing districts, they all go poor. | ||
And then you don't have jobs that you can start with a wage that earns you enough to maybe even purchase a house after a couple years, purchase a car. | ||
You don't have those jobs in the cities anymore. | ||
Everything goes to the service sector. | ||
So that was kind of like phase one of this. | ||
It was removing manufacturing from America. | ||
And so... Trump's plan brings that back. | ||
That is foundational success. | ||
That is long-term success. | ||
If we start manufacturing our own goods again, it doesn't even matter about tariffs or income taxes or all this thing. | ||
We're building our own products. | ||
We're sustaining our own economy now. | ||
It's like a self-fulfilling standard of economics. | ||
It is. | ||
And see... So that would be an ideal world, right? | ||
This would be similar policies that Trump had in his first four years and what Reagan had. | ||
Lowered taxes, lowered interest rates, create jobs, bring jobs back to America, people spending, buying. | ||
It just is this amazing thing, and it's not rocket science. | ||
But here's where they want to usher in something that's all about people control like we talked about now the danger | ||
with that is Look what happened with CrowdStrike right a couple weeks | ||
ago It's like okay software upgrade gone bad, and it shut down | ||
Airlines. It shut down travel. You know American United Delta | ||
They were all grounded Banks couldn't wire funds | ||
We get millions of dollars a day in bank wires coming into our company. | ||
It's what we do, right? We sell people gold and silver allocated into their portfolios and they exchange cash, which we then pay the vendors. | ||
Well, normally a bank wire goes through in like an hour, right? | ||
You wire it out and it's there. | ||
Well, we would wire funds. | ||
They would leave our account. | ||
They wouldn't show up at the receiving bank. | ||
And the vendors will come and say, yeah, guys, you know, didn't you guys wire us the funds for the millions of dollars of metals you purchased for your clients? | ||
It's like, yes. But so the banks weren't working. | ||
Hospitals couldn't do surgeries because their software wouldn't work. | ||
This all happened in like over a weekend, right? | ||
And it was like disarray everywhere. | ||
So imagine if this were the case for a week or a month. | ||
Or a year. Or, you know, what you've had to experience, your freedoms taken away for a long time. | ||
I'd say a month would probably be all it took. | ||
I mean, that would be all it takes, but imagine the rest of your life, right? | ||
Imagine if they didn't like the political party you donated to, the church you gave to, the gas that you put into your truck, the food that you eat, whatever, and they just shut you off because it's not part of the globalist agenda. | ||
We got a taste of it over a weekend, and people didn't like it. | ||
But this is the danger of moving everything digital, right? | ||
So Australia, when CrowdStrike went down, sadly, they used Microsoft servers for all of their money. | ||
And they went completely digital many months ago. | ||
First, they started with putting limits on ATM withdrawals. | ||
Then they got rid of ATM machines. | ||
Then they actually legislated, we're going cashless only. | ||
So imagine being completely digital and you can't actually access anything. | ||
It's like nobody can buy anything in Australia. | ||
Well, now you take it one step further. | ||
And yesterday, they passed stupid legislation that there's people's social credit score. | ||
You have to provide a passport, a driver's license, something, and have 100 social credit points to open up a social media account so you can say things, right, and have your social media profiles and all this stuff. | ||
But then once you open that, The police have access to everything, even your private chats. | ||
People just gave away their freedom in exchange for convenience, and they don't even get it. | ||
They absolutely don't get it. | ||
This is the world that we're marching into, and the economics, the financial meltdown is only a piece of it. | ||
Well, I was talking about this earlier. | ||
There's this lack of ability for multidimensional thinking or even just basic action, reaction, or choice consequence. | ||
I mean, that's basically what you're getting to here. | ||
And, you know, the other angle to this as well is, okay, think about a cash transaction. | ||
I mean, I'll use the example, like when I was a kid, if I went down to my neighbors and babysit their kids and they gave me, you know, 50 bucks cash for a night, or I would umpire at a local school down the road and the School commissioner would just pay me cash to umpire these games. | ||
Well, okay, I'm getting cash. | ||
Government can't reach in and get their grubby little paws on that transaction. | ||
And that just drives them crazy, Kirk. | ||
They got these gangsters. | ||
They got to get their cut, man. | ||
How dare you make a transaction and they don't get their cut? | ||
And so that's why they also hate cash is they want everything to be on a digital platform so they can reach in there and grab it and take their cut. | ||
Well, yeah, and so that's not an extreme way of thinking, Owen. | ||
In fact, that was legislated way back in the Obama days with the Dodd-Frank bill under bail-in legislation. | ||
So that's what a bail-in is. | ||
A bail-in is when something runs out of money, like banks. | ||
Like, for example, when Silicon Valley Bank went down. | ||
Remember that back in March of last year? | ||
And then they had four other banks. | ||
One of those banks was... | ||
Signature Bank. Signature Bank got bought out by Community Bank of New York. | ||
Well, Community Bank of New York went underwater, right? | ||
Because why? Because they bought toxic assets. | ||
You can't buy this toxic bank and expect your balance sheets to still look good. | ||
And then in April of this year, Republic First Bank in Pennsylvania went into FDIC receivership and Fulton Bank bought them out. | ||
What happened earlier in this week? | ||
Bolton Bank decided we got to close up 18 branches because we bought all these toxic assets and it basically tainted the entire well. | ||
So you've got all these things happening and banks running out of money. | ||
What comes next? | ||
Bail-ins, where the depositors of those banks are going to have to bail them out. | ||
Because Janet Yellen, after Silicon Valley Bank said, too big to fail, no such thing. | ||
We are not going to bail out any of these failed institutions anymore with government money. | ||
We're going to pass that buck on to the depositor. | ||
Under a bailing, you have to bail out your own financial institution. | ||
That's what a bailing is, right? | ||
So they've already legislated that. | ||
People don't realize, Owen, that their bank accounts, your checking savings accounts, your money markets, all that stuff, is not yours anymore. | ||
It's not mine. It's not anybody except for the banks. | ||
We gave up our ownership and we're now beneficial owners, which is why they don't have to ask for permission to use your assets as collateral to pay off some derivatives debt. | ||
I mean, this is the world of bail-ins and why it is so incredibly important that people understand the financial safety of the financial institution they're with, because if you're not, I wouldn't have too much money there. | ||
I truly wouldn't. | ||
Well, and not only that, most people don't even realize, or maybe until it's too late, that A, they don't even have the cash on hand, and B, you think you can go make a withdrawal. | ||
You can't. They'll tell you that. | ||
You'll learn that the hard way. | ||
And yes, Kirk Elliott is our guest. | ||
And if you would like to remove the fiat currency that's losing value from your bank account and get into precious metals like gold bullion, Kirk Elliott is your guy. | ||
K-E-P-M. Hold on a second. | ||
Kirk, I'm getting a call from the IRS. They're asking me about $50 I made babysitting when I was 14 years old. | ||
They're going to have to... Okay, I'll catch up with you guys later. | ||
Sorry. But this is why it's so important. | ||
When Trump talks about no tax on tips, look, there just needs to be... | ||
I don't even know what you do. | ||
It's like, hey, if I want to go down the street and make a transaction in cash with somebody for whatever reason... | ||
I don't need the government. I don't need the government shaking me down. | ||
I don't need the government getting their cut. | ||
I mean, that needs to be the ruling. | ||
Here's a question for you. A lot of people don't talk about this. | ||
Trump brought it up. | ||
What about repatriation of funds or increasing a tax on funds that people send out of the country? | ||
People come to America, they work, and then they send their paycheck to the countries where they came from. | ||
What can we do to keep that money here? | ||
That's a big issue people don't talk about. | ||
Well, that is a big issue. | ||
And see, When Russia invaded Ukraine, Biden kind of did this, right? | ||
Biden said, hey, you've got to basically pay up. | ||
We're going to freeze your assets, right? | ||
Because you're doing something that we don't like. | ||
So this whole concept of repatriation, if somebody is sending money outside of the country, You're earning it here, but then you ultimately aren't paying taxes. | ||
It's going somewhere else. I don't know how you police that except stop international bank wires. | ||
But how the administration does it is they just freeze another country's assets so they can't get them. | ||
This is the problem that other countries around the world are now seeing. | ||
So you said repatriation. | ||
Other countries are saying, hey, America, send us our gold. | ||
The part that you have at the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, we want it. | ||
We want it on our homeland because we're afraid of these political economic sanctions. | ||
And what you did to Russia, we're not going to have it. | ||
So this whole concept of repatriation... | ||
It's a distrust of government, is what the underlying theme is. | ||
So when people don't trust the government, they're going to try to get it on their own body, in their own possession. | ||
They're going to get it away from what they consider the bad people, right? | ||
And so we've got other countries pulling their stuff out. | ||
We've got people in America... | ||
Who actually aren't citizens that are taking money and then they're pushing it offshore. | ||
It's like, well, okay, don't allow it then if they're not citizens, right? | ||
I mean, that one's kind of an easy fix. | ||
Or tax it at a high rate. | ||
I would agree. I would say if you're a non-citizen, tax it at an extremely high rate. | ||
Or even if you are a citizen or an immigrant and you're sending money back home, I would tax that as well. | ||
Yeah, I mean, they're getting away with no tax, and the people who actually live here and work hard are getting higher taxes. | ||
It's a backwards communist system, and you just have to start some of these concepts. | ||
You flip them around, and the people who have earned, who paid into the system, tax them less. | ||
The people who are just taking money and then cash under the table, you go to some kind of Western Union, you ship it offshore, whatever you do. | ||
It's like, okay, tax the living daylights out of something like that. | ||
That's the equivalent of... | ||
Of a tariff on foreign goods just in the reverse direction. | ||
Well, and again, it's the reverse. | ||
What's happening is the reverse of what should be happening. | ||
Americans are paying the highest costs. | ||
We're paying the highest costs. | ||
Foreigners are getting free stuff and then not even getting taxed. | ||
I mean, it's the reverse. | ||
The Americans should be having the lowest cost and the most benefits. | ||
Instead, the non-citizens have the lowest cost and the most benefits. | ||
We have the highest cost and the least benefits. | ||
Yeah. Weird how that works sometimes. | ||
Sadly. Well, I can't even imagine. | ||
This is why we have a problem. | ||
This is why we don't have a revenue problem in America. | ||
We have a spending problem, right? | ||
You know, it's not hard for me as a business person, as an economist, when I look at the budget of the United States. | ||
Politicians always say, we've got a revenue problem. | ||
We've got to raise taxes. | ||
We've got to generate more revenue. | ||
It's like, no, you don't. | ||
Look at the other side of the transaction of the balance sheet. | ||
Stop spending so much money. | ||
The revenue is just fine. | ||
Don't spend as much. | ||
But it's hard for people to actually say, oh, we're going to cut spending when over 83% of everything that we bring in as a nation goes out towards entitlements, mandatory payments, things like that. | ||
It's like, if you start cutting that, you're cutting votes, right? | ||
And so no politician's going to want to do that. | ||
So they blame revenue streams. | ||
And this is where the Fed and the Treasury Department are in between a rock and a hard place, right? | ||
Because we saw a little bit of this with Japan failing. | ||
Over the weekend, because they raised rates a quarter of a point. | ||
That ended the Japan-yen carry trade, where they've had low interest rates, close to zero forever, and people would borrow money from China and then invest it elsewhere. | ||
It's just arbitrage. It's all it was. | ||
But that now, with rising interest rates in Japan, Jerome Powell saying, oh, we're going to lower interest rates. | ||
Amplifies the problem. | ||
This is why we saw this market meltdown, because a $20 trillion carry trade industry was just kind of destroyed. | ||
We're at the beginning days of it, and this is going to have implications. | ||
But of course it is, because it's all based on debt. | ||
When you have rising interest rates and you're shackled with debt, it's going to have implications, and that's where the world is right now, which is why you need to get out of that system, go into something that's tangible and real, and protect and preserve and grow and thrive. | ||
That's how you can have a smile on your face, Owen, even given everything that we're seeing. | ||
Yeah, it would be much more comforting to not have a big number in the bank that could just go vamoosh overnight and instead have a hard asset like a precious metal. | ||
KEMPM.com slash gold. | ||
Loaded question for the final 60 seconds here, but is a bank collapse or an economic collapse inevitable? | ||
And in a strange way, would we want Trump in office to be there for that? | ||
Yes and no. Is it inevitable? | ||
Yes. We've basically hit the point of critical mass. | ||
Banks are running out of money. | ||
FDIC only has 1.17% of all deposits insured. | ||
We've got more withdrawals than we have deposits out of the banks. | ||
The banks will fail. | ||
You see, and Trump got in trouble a while back for saying, hey, the economy is going to fail and I want it to happen before I'm in office, right? | ||
Well, of course, anybody would say that because if he's in office when this fails, he's going to get the blame for it, even though it's not his fault. | ||
unidentified
|
He's not saying it's going to happen. | |
But I'm saying Kamala Harris probably can't add one plus one or even know what a dividend is. | ||
At least Trump maybe can understand what to do. | ||
He would understand what to do, but even if he weren't the president today and this went down, what Biden did to America is so devastating, it's going to take probably a year to two just to get back to zero, right? | ||
But Trump would get us back there. | ||
He's the best economic president this country has ever seen, even better than Reagan, but it would take a while. | ||
It's not going to happen overnight. | ||
We have to have real expectations on it. | ||
But yeah, I would rather he be in, but he would get blamed for it if he were in. | ||
So, yeah, I mean, if you trip on a sidewalk crack, you know, you just find a way to blame Trump. | ||
Kirk Elliott, thank you for your time. | ||
KEPM.com slash gold. | ||
All right. Oh, my. | ||
Kamala Harris and Tim Walls have had their first joint rally now. | ||
It's in Philadelphia, and they're stunned. | ||
They actually have a big crowd. | ||
It's energized. And they're like, oh my gosh, this is amazing. | ||
We actually have a crowd now. | ||
And, well, I just sent the crew the videos. | ||
This is really awkward, though. | ||
This is really awkward stuff. | ||
And it's this, like, disbelief that they're even there. | ||
It's this disbelief that they even have a crowd. | ||
It's this enthusiasm that everybody knows is totally phony. | ||
And Are they drunk? | ||
I don't know. You can be the judge. | ||
We'll have that coming up. I want to just start clearing out some of these videos I have here. | ||
This is Eddie Griffin. | ||
Famous comedian. And so look, they can continue to sell Kamala and people will buy it. | ||
Oh, she's a black woman, so I just love her so much. | ||
They don't even know about policy. | ||
They don't even care. They're just that dumb. | ||
It's the Democrat voting base. | ||
But it's not going over in all these circles, folks. | ||
It's not. Especially amongst black men. | ||
Especially amongst black men that... | ||
Think for themselves. Like Eddie Griffin. | ||
And this was himself on his podcast. | ||
And, well, he wasn't too kind to Kamala, clip 11. | ||
unidentified
|
The rights are on the line. | |
Our Supreme Court is on the line. | ||
Our basic freedoms are being tested, madam. | ||
BP, I know you've been traveling across the country. | ||
What are you hearing? | ||
Yeah, girl, I'm out here in these streets. | ||
unidentified
|
You're lying, bitch. | |
You out in the streets. Oh, so all of a sudden you're black again. | ||
Because it's election season. | ||
They need a nigga. So, you know, I'm out in these streets. | ||
What streets are you in? Huh? | ||
What streets? You out in the streets with your white husband, huh? | ||
The streets. Yeah. | ||
Because you harder than still. | ||
Still getting harder. Madam VP. You understand me? | ||
You know what I mean? Yeah. | ||
I'm out in these streets. You know what I mean? | ||
I'm a hustler. Supreme. | ||
I'm in the streets. God damn it. | ||
I'm hitting the pavement, agitating the gravel. | ||
You know what I'm saying? I'm kicking rocks like a mother. | ||
And let me tell you, you're right, Taraji. | ||
There is so much at stake in this moment. | ||
unidentified
|
The majority of us believe in freedom and equality. | |
But these extremists, as they say, they're not like us. | ||
No, they not. God, look at this bitch. | ||
They not like us. | ||
Ah, Kendrick, kick her in the head. | ||
Kick in the head for even using your goddamn legs. | ||
They not like, you ain't like us either, bitch. | ||
Well, how about that? Hold on. | ||
They will take anything and use it as a slogan to try to get them votes, boy. | ||
And they didn't try this black bitch out and turn her into a nigga once again. | ||
That's how he won the last time, got the black vote because they got the black woman. | ||
But this bitch, she ain't black at all. | ||
I don't know what she is, but she ain't no nigga. | ||
I know that much. | ||
Yeah, she got a white husband. | ||
Cause you know, she's so black. | ||
She's so down with us that she married a white boy. | ||
Like a majority of these mayors and female senators that are black, all of them got white husbands. | ||
Yeah. | ||
I'm telling you, there is some enthusiasm for Kamala, and they're obviously going to reach out to the low-IQ voting base that can't think for themselves and don't know anything about policy that, oh, look, a black woman, and they'll just buy into it. | ||
But it's shallow, and I don't know if... | ||
Will it be overwhelmed by commentary like you hear from Eddie Griffin there? | ||
I don't know, but there will be a pushback. | ||
There will certainly be a pushback. | ||
And this is going to become the back and forth, I think, on the identity politics issue of Kamala Harris. | ||
By the way, that was from before she chose Tim Walz. | ||
A white guy. A white guy. | ||
Man, oh man. So this is what they're going to run on is she's a black woman and look, I can speak in Ebonics and I can dance and I do chicken wing arms and I got these limp wrists to make it look like I'm cool. | ||
Like she's doing right now as this is live. | ||
Oh my gosh. | ||
Is it the most cringe of all time, guys? | ||
unidentified
|
I'm asking the crew. Bush? | |
The crew is saying Bush might have been more cringe. | ||
Wow. All right. | ||
I wasn't expecting... | ||
Romney gets a vote for cringe level. | ||
I think Kamala has reached peak cringe in politics. | ||
I don't think we've ever seen anything this cringe. | ||
Not as a candidate. | ||
Beto? Beto was cringe. | ||
Kamala still tops it. | ||
unidentified
|
Oh, Kamala tops it. | |
That was unintentional. | ||
This stuff comes naturally to me. | ||
We got some more here, but see, this is the type of pushback I'm talking about. | ||
Here's another one. Former Democrat, not white, who's going to be voting for Donald Trump, clip 15. | ||
unidentified
|
MAGA is filled with racist, homophobic white people. | |
At least, that's what I was led to believe. | ||
Because over the past nine days, I've received more love from the MAGA community than I have from the Democratic Party in 25 years. | ||
And in the same way our economy was better off under the Trump administration, the numbers don't lie. | ||
Oh, I have the receipts to back it up. | ||
You guys have viewed my post over 2 million times with over 100,000 likes, over 40,000 shares, and my personal favorite, over 10,000 of the most beautiful comments that I've ever read in my life. | ||
You guys have embraced me and you have catapulted this Puerto Rican gay man. | ||
into the social media spotlight as your spokesperson for common sense. | ||
And if it was something that the MAGA community needed, somebody that the left could not call homophobic or racist. | ||
Rigo, how did you view us before all this happened? | ||
Well, in the way that the media portrayed you guys, I believe that anything patriotic equaled racism. | ||
And the media tries to brainwash you. | ||
You have to have two things in place. | ||
A narrative, Trump is racist. | ||
Trump is racist. MAGA is racist. | ||
And you need symbolism. | ||
And this is honest to God. | ||
Anything with the color red. | ||
Or anything that had to do with the American flag. | ||
Or anything patriotic. | ||
I saw it as racism. | ||
I know. Crazy, right? | ||
That's how warped they had my mind. | ||
Again, narrative, symbolism, and the third part, repetition. | ||
These white MAGA men will beat you up for being gay. | ||
Yeah, not true. | ||
The message has been consistent with white conservative men in the comments section. | ||
We don't care who you poke in the butt. | ||
Let's just clean this country up. | ||
No, somebody really said that. I thought it was hilarious. | ||
I know this might sound absolutely loony to people on the left, but Republicans can have gay people in their family. | ||
They might also have gay friends. | ||
Oh my God! I know, crazy, right? | ||
I was already on the Trump train. | ||
I just had no idea how the MAGA community was. | ||
And all I've received from them this week is an overwhelming support of love. | ||
If this experience has taught me anything, is that any group, whether it's gay, Republican, black, white, they all have their set of extremists. | ||
People who do way too much. | ||
To paint everybody under the same light is just completely unfair. | ||
This experience has taught me how to judge people on their character and their actions, and not by the stereotypes thrown at me by the media. | ||
I've learned that the mad community is diverse. | ||
So look, you can try to have political purism, and you can try to have small-tent Republican politics, and you know what you're gonna get? | ||
You're gonna get Kamala Harris. | ||
That's what you're gonna get. | ||
That's your choice. Or you can have big-tent Republican politics, Have your own decisions when it comes to culture and personal life, but realize we've got one thing, and that's to defeat the radical Democrats and save this country. | ||
So that's why I'm for a big tent Republican Party, and that's why at this stage in the game, big tent conservative politics are the only way to move forward to victory. | ||
If we try to have little tent Republican politics, little tent conservative politics, you can kiss this country goodbye. | ||
See ya. But see, it's working, folks. | ||
unidentified
|
It's working. You know, we have to stay woke. | |
Like, everybody needs to be woke. | ||
And you can talk about if you're the wokest or woker, but just stay more woke than less woke. | ||
Yeah. She's the only one laughing. | ||
Did you see that, guys? She was the only one laughing? | ||
The other women on the stage were like, what in the hell is she talking about? | ||
Her mannerisms. | ||
Guys, I'm sorry. Nobody's this cringe. | ||
Nobody ever. It's not even close. | ||
I discount every crew member's opinion now. | ||
I mean, notice how no one else on the stage is laughing, Kamala. | ||
Except you. It's like her awkward... | ||
It's like she does the awkward body language with the chicken arms and the limp wrist and the bobblehead, although that's just probably her normal political reaction, if you know what I mean. | ||
And then... But it's the cackle. | ||
It's the awkward moment where she realizes, okay, whatever I just said was really stupid and I look stupid, so I'm just going to start cackling and that'll distract from the stupid. | ||
Okay. But this was just... | ||
Moments ago, they're not drunk. | ||
Kamal Harris and Tim Walz are not drunk in clip 19. | ||
unidentified
|
We're doing this Thank you. | |
Yeah, nobody can believe it. | ||
Not even her. She can't even believe it. | ||
She did it. Rode her way to the top. | ||
unidentified
|
Good evening, Philadelphia! | |
Thank you. | ||
you There's actually more. | ||
There's other... It's just... | ||
But hey, she doesn't even believe it. | ||
unidentified
|
She's like, I'm actually doing this! | |
We're actually here! | ||
unidentified
|
Oh my God! | |
Nobody can believe it, but here we are. | ||
And Nancy Pelosi is definitely not drunk in clip 14. | ||
Whether it's, well, it's the first bill. | ||
The first bill to protect our... | ||
Bill, COVID. Shots in the arm, money in the pockets, children in school, people at work, the infrastructure bill, building in a way that is respectful of communities, chips and science. | ||
unidentified
|
What? Wow. | |
But if you cut through the drunken rambling, what you hear is actually a hardcore communist. | ||
The government's going to force a vaccine into your arm, and they're going to give you money. | ||
So if you can cut through the drunken belligerence from Pelosi, that's actually what she's just... | ||
She's just espousing hardcore communism. | ||
All right, so remember, you know, this is kind of funny, too. | ||
Remember when they were saying, J.D. Vance is afraid to debate Kamala? | ||
Remember that? And then the Trump campaign came out and said, well, we're not even sure who the president or vice president is going to be, so we'll just hold off on committing J.D. Vance to a Kamala debate. | ||
You know, looking back on it, they probably should have taken it, or now they should re-challenge it and say, Kamala, why don't you stick to your challenge of J.D. Vance debate first? | ||
And then maybe you can deal with Trump. | ||
Or maybe Biden wants to come out for another debate. | ||
So you just heard a drunken Kamala, or sober Kamala, Chicken Mala, this was J.D. Vance in a rally earlier today, dealing with a heckler in the crowd, clip 18. | ||
Drug cartels bring across that open border. | ||
Now you asked about the remarks that I made that were, you said that they were offensive to millions of women. | ||
Well, here's what I'd say. | ||
unidentified
|
This cat lady loves you! | |
Thank you, ma'am. Cat ladies for Vance. | ||
So one cat lady heckled him, he responds. | ||
What I said is very simple. | ||
I think American families are good and government policy should be more pro-family. | ||
Now, if the media wants to get offended about a sarcastic remark I made before I even ran for the United States Senate, then the media is entitled to get offended. | ||
You know what I'm offended by? I'm offended that normal Americans can't afford grocery prices. | ||
I'm offended... | ||
That Kamala Harris opened up the American southern border and allowed fentanyl to come into our communities. | ||
And I'm offended that she wants to be the people's president, but she won't even answer tough questions. | ||
That's what I'm offended by. | ||
And I think that's what most Americans are offended by, too. | ||
unidentified
|
And I guess on that note, I should say... | |
Thank you all for having me. | ||
It's great to be here. | ||
If I could ask you to just do one thing. | ||
We have got an incredible amount of momentum. | ||
I would say J.D. Vance is coming into his own. | ||
I think it would be fair to say that J.D. Vance is coming into his own. | ||
Well, we can talk about the future of the Republican Party tomorrow. | ||
Let me get through some of these headlines. | ||
That we have today. Donald Trump has announced he's going to be doing an interview with Elon Musk on Monday. | ||
Monday, Trump-Musk interview. | ||
Details to follow, he says. | ||
So that'll pretty much break the internet. | ||
That'll be huge. Looking forward to that. | ||
And so what's the response from Democrats when Musk endorses Trump? | ||
Well, they have to engage in lawfare against him. | ||
Elon Musk PAC investigated by Michigan's Secretary of State. | ||
So now the Democrats are coming after Musk. | ||
Elon Musk X files antitrust suit against ad cartel GARM for coordinating illegal boycott. | ||
We tried peace for two years. | ||
Now it's war. | ||
By the way, there was a big decision in a court decision against Google for acting as a monopoly. | ||
And they're going to appeal this. | ||
It's going to be in the Supreme Court eventually. | ||
So that's really all you need to know at this point. | ||
But basically Google had a major setback for basically antitrust monopoly violations. | ||
The decision was against them. | ||
The appeal is inevitable. | ||
This case is going to end up in the Supreme Court. | ||
It's going to be one of the more higher consequential cases when it comes to big tech, certainly, and just the power of Google. | ||
So that's another big development there. | ||
We'll get to some of this other news on the assassination again tomorrow as we're running out of time here today. | ||
Judicial Watch, federal court hearing set for August 6th, an Ashley Babbitt $30 million wrongful death lawsuit. | ||
So this did happen today. | ||
This is happening actually while we were on air. | ||
So I'm sure there's some new developments. | ||
But the issue is that this case is happening in a D.C. court. | ||
So, do you really think Ashley Babbitt is going to get a favorable treatment from a D.C. court? | ||
Now, if Ashley Babbitt was George Floyd, she'd make $300 million, and the officer that shot her would be in jail. | ||
But since she's Ashley Babbitt, and she's in a D.C. court, well, I don't know. | ||
I just don't know. | ||
But they're still arresting people for January 6th. | ||
Tennessee man arrested for assaulting law enforcement and other charges during January 6th, Capitol breach. | ||
Assaulting law enforcement. | ||
They didn't share any evidence of this in their report, but apparently he was one of the individuals that was using a bike rack to break through a law enforcement line according to this report. | ||
But, you know, if he would have been rioting... | ||
In the anti-Israel riots, burning American flags, desecrating monuments, he would have been released with no charges. | ||
But he's not. | ||
And so he'll be suffering the fullest extent of the law. | ||
By the way, I agree with Hillary Clinton on something. | ||
Guys, hold your horses. | ||
Don't be upset. I agree Hillary Clinton is actually right about something. | ||
This is an unbelievable development. | ||
Hillary Clinton says this yesterday. | ||
She says, I don't think this has gotten enough attention. | ||
Trump keeps saying he'll cut funding for schools that require vaccinations. | ||
I agree, Hillary. | ||
I agree. | ||
This has not gotten enough attention. | ||
And so I will do Hillary Clinton's bidding right here today on the Infowars War Room. | ||
Donald Trump vows he will defund public schools that require vaccines for students if he is re-elected. | ||
Hillary says it hasn't gotten enough attention. | ||
I agree. I agree, Hillary. | ||
See Hillary wants the state to mandate that your child takes a big pharmaceutical product. | ||
Hillary Clinton wants to mandate that your child has a forced injection. | ||
Hillary Clinton wants to mandate that that needle go into your child's arm, even if it's experimental, and Donald Trump is against it. | ||
So I agree, Hillary. | ||
That story is not getting enough attention, and so we give it attention here today. | ||
All right, some other news stories we didn't get to. | ||
A big policy change coming to X, but we'll investigate that tomorrow. | ||
We'll take a 21-hour break. | ||
It's the InfoWars War Room, brought to you by InfoWarsStore.com. | ||
We'll see you tomorrow. In the meantime, you stay classy, InfoWarriors, and don't listen to too much Kamala Harris for your own intelligence. | ||
