The 2024 Battle In Arizona! Abe Hamadeh Enters The StoneZONE w/ Roger Stone
| Copy link to current segment

Time Text
The Stone Zone with legendary Republican strategist and political icon and pundit Roger Stone.
Stone has served as a senior campaign aide to three Republican presidents.
He is a New York Times best-selling author and a longtime friend and advisor of President Donald Trump.
As an outspoken libertarian, Stone has appeared on thousands of broadcasts, spoken at countless venues, and lectured before the prestigious Oxford Political Union and the Cambridge Union Society.
Due to his four-plus decades in the political and cultural arena, Stone has become a pop culture icon.
And now, here's your host, Roger Stone!
Welcome, I'm Roger Stone, and yes, you are back in the Stone Zone.
Election integrity is perhaps the largest single concern of those who support President Donald Trump and see his inexorable return to the White House as reflected in the polls.
In the most recent round of elections, we saw a lot of egregious evidence of voter fraud and worse.
One of its worst victims is Abe Hamada, who ran for Attorney General of Arizona.
He was cheated, in my opinion, by an excruciatingly small margin.
But undaunted, he is back, now running for the U.S.
House, and he's going to join us in a moment.
First, my co-host, Troy Smith from Slingshot.News, who will help me in breaking down today's political news and this important interview.
Troy, welcome back into the Stone Zone.
Roger, as always, it's an honor.
Excellent.
All right, let's bring in Abe, a candidate for Congress in Arizona, and a man who has been through a horrific fight over the last election, but who's never given up.
Abe, welcome to the Stone Zone.
Thank you.
Good to be with you, Roger and Troy.
Abe, I must say, when the President endorsed your campaign for Congress, I was very, very happy.
Uh, you have been valiant in the fight.
Uh, I watched with great interest, uh, the way I believe you were cheated and I'm just glad to see that you are back in the arena.
Thank you, Roger.
You know, I always tell people, they ask me, are you sad about what happened in November of 2022?
And I tell them in many ways, I'm not sad.
I'm sad for what they did to the people.
But they gave me decades of knowledge in a condensed one-year period of time.
I know who the phonies are.
I know who the crooks are.
I know how they're rigging these elections.
It's not just the machines.
It's not just the mail-in ballots.
It's not just the voter registration, it's death by a thousand cuts.
These people are nasty and they've given me so much knowledge.
I'm still fighting my election lawsuit, Roger.
This is over a year and a half in the making now because the legal system is having a really difficult time addressing the issues that I talked about.
I never even talked about election fraud in my lawsuit.
All I said was count the valid votes that were outstanding, because so your viewers know, we were down 280 votes out of 2.5 million, and there's still 9,000 uncounted ballots.
So this is a real problem that we're facing, but I'm not going to give up because, you know, I'm a former prosecutor, former intelligence officer in the U.S.
Army.
They've messed with the wrong man, Roger, and I'm young with a lot of testosterone, so I'm ready to take these phonies down.
So, let me ask you this, because I'm not certain.
As you know, our mutual friend Carrie Lake recently filed new filings at the U.S.
Supreme Court.
I've always thought that the real answer ultimately was to get the Supreme Court to visit the question of election integrity.
Twenty-one individual attorney generals asked them to do that after the last presidential election, and they refused.
Which by the way, almost never happens.
Usually when a multiple number of state AGs ask the court for a review, the court grants that review.
Are you a party to, or are you familiar with Carey's filing?
I'm not a party to that lawsuit.
This has been really a few years in the making.
Mark Fincham was a part of that lawsuit and Carrie Lake are as well.
I think they're just asking the Supreme Court to take it on.
I hope the Supreme Court takes on because we're learning so much new evidence that we never had in 2020 or 2022 because of these lawsuits.
I mean, if you look at what's going on in Georgia, With everything that we're discovering with Dominion, which is very, very real.
And here in Arizona with my election lawsuit, what happened with ES&S machines, that's what shrunk the deficit from 511 votes to 280.
You know, there's massive problems.
So I think it's time that the courts actually take this seriously and not just believe the fake news that wants to pretend that we've got these perfect elections.
So I'm happy that they're fighting it because, you know, this is an all-out war Roger, and we need patriots to stand up now more than ever.
Well, as you know, politics is always about the future and never about the past.
This will be my last question about what has transpired.
How do you feel about your current lawsuit regarding the Attorney General's race?
And then we'll go from there.
Well, it's really simple.
What happened in my election contest back in December of 2022, Roger, the government knew about all of these problems with the ES&S machines in Pinal County.
That's where they had that huge, massive recount discrepancy.
But also, we were asking for the provisional ballots from Maricopa County.
You know, an office I used to work for as a prosecutor and Maricopa County refused to hand us over the provisional ballots, which are public records.
They only handed it over to us a week after trial.
So we went into trial with no evidence.
And just imagine that as a former prosecutor, if I had done that, I would be disbarred.
And yet here the government is rewarded.
So all we're asking for is to get a new trial because now we have the evidence with all these thousands of uncounted ballots.
But I'm afraid our legal system is completely compromised.
And it's not an easy thing for me to say, but look what they did to Rudy Giuliani.
Look what they're doing here to Kerry Lake with this BS defamation lawsuit.
There's a real psychosis going on in our country.
And especially within the elites.
So our legal system, I'm not confident in it, but the reason why I continue to fight it is because I ultimately want them to sign their names on the document and overturn precedent that's 100 years old.
I want them to destroy the rule of law, and I want their signatures on it, because I have no confidence that they're going to do the right thing, sadly, because I no longer have faith in our legal system.
But I'm fighting because in my congressional district, It was hit the hardest with those machines going down.
So everybody in running for Congress, so many people know election integrity is the number one issue for them.
So they see me and Carrie Lake and President Trump as warriors for them.
And we're going to do that when we get into Washington, D.C.
next year.
So actually, tonight at Mar-a-Lago, I am headlining with my good friend, Roseanne Barr, a fundraiser for Carrie Lake.
And it's a complete and total sellout, which I'm very, very honored about.
It's going to be a great night.
You go on X, formerly known as Twitter, and people say, wow, Carrie Lake's really scraping the bottom of the barrel.
Really?
Then why is it a sellout?
I'm really looking forward to this.
Troy, I want to look forward now.
I want to look forward to Abe's current campaign and talk about how that's going and how people can help you.
The next question, Troy, is yours.
Well, thank you.
So, we've seen this election thing play out a couple years now, a couple different election cycles.
What has been changed going into 2024 that's going to give you and these other patriots a better chance at getting things done and getting into office?
Well, that's a good question, because in Arizona, it's still run by the same crooks from 2020 and 2022.
However, I think there's been some recent changes with the laws.
My biggest concern, though, is if they're actually going to follow the law.
I do.
I have a lot more hope, though, this time around, just because simply you see RFK Jr.
on the ballot that, you know, that's going to confuse a lot of the rigors of these elections.
You know, I think he's close to 13 percent in the polls, and I actually think he's taking away votes in the Democrats.
And you have Jill Stein, who's running as a Green Party.
You have all these third parties.
I don't think the Democrats realized they weren't on the ballot in 2020, for instance.
So they have to deal with this new scenario.
And in terms of what Kerry Lake and I are, we're facing a pretty deep, nasty machine.
But hopefully, President Trump is able to You know, get out the vote, especially in rural Arizona to help Carrie Lake in the Senate.
My race is a little different.
Once I win the primary, I am, you know, pretty smooth sailing for the general, but I'm not going to let up.
I got to make sure Carrie Lake and President Trump get elected, too.
I've told Carrie Lake this many, many times.
I'm not going to Washington, D.C.
without her.
You know, Carrie Lake and I have become such close, you know, friends.
She's truly a battle buddy.
And, you know, I trust her with everything.
And I'm not going to go in the swamp without Carrie Lake.
So I'm going to do everything I can to ensure that we get Carrie Lake and President Trump over the finish line.
I know people are wanting to get out and vote early.
I'm all for voting in person early.
You know, as long as, you know, whatever the laws allow at this time, we have to utilize every tool in our toolbox.
And, you know, we can't do what happened last year, which is, you know, we waited till the last day and then we know that those machines intentionally went down.
I mean, I believe it was targeted.
So, you know, we have to get smart.
We have to get strategic.
I think President Trump's going to lead the way on it.
But 2024, when you look at Arizona's dealing with a wide open border with all these, you know, tens of thousands of illegal immigrants coming in, you have 20,000 Chinese illegal immigrants coming in just this year alone.
Which is very scary, especially my congressional district, which has now the largest microchip plant in the world that's moved from Taiwan into my district.
So of course the Chinese are going to exploit that.
And you look at, we're on the brink of World War III.
It's insane what's going on around the world.
This administration has totally failed, and everybody's taking advantage of our weakness.
So I think people are looking at their pocketbooks, they're looking at crime, they're looking at the southern border, and I think they're going to come out and vote for Well, I certainly agree with your assessment of Carrie Lake.
I really think she is the most dynamic, most effective communicator that I've seen in American politics, literally, since Ronald Reagan.
And I have a huge confidence in her.
I do think she's going to win.
I hope you're going to win right along with her.
We're going to go to a quick commercial break and when we come back we're going to talk a bit more with Abe Hamada about his campaign for Congress and we're going to tell you how you can help Abe in that fight.
So please just take a moment and a word from our corporate sponsors.
Hi, neighbor.
Pat Boone here.
Today I want to help you find some peace of mind concerning your money.
Like it or not, we're all living in a financial war zone.
That's right.
We're watching our hard-earned dollars get crushed by inflation.
In fact, recently inflation reached its highest level in 40 years.
And on top of that, cash, which has always represented freedom and privacy, is more and more being replaced by a cashless system.
That's right.
Powerful forces are definitely waging a war against cash.
So I'm encouraging you to prepare before it's too late.

Discover how a few simple steps can protect your money as well as your privacy and your peace of mind.
So call or text for your free report, The Secret War on Cash, and make sure to mention Pat Boone sent you.
Joining me at the news desk now is Rebecca Walzer of walzerwealth.com.
She has been a regular guest on my TV show, Brennan House Live, for a long time.
She's not just an economics expert, but she's an attorney.
Rebecca, you have a large firm.
How many people work for your firm?
Just about 30, yes.
Tell me, how can people prepare for what's coming with the end of the dollar as we know it?
The end of the fiat system, as we know it globally, we are moving to hard asset-backed currencies again.
Thank the Lord, because fiat is where we get into all the problems.
When you have debt-based currency, you have debt-based problems.
And the United States, unfortunately, since 2020, has not stopped spinning at pandemic levels.
This is systemic, and it is unsustainable, and it is coming to an end, especially with the addition of Saudi Arabia and the UAE to the BRICS nations.
This is what controls our petrodollar.
This is the threat immediately in 2024.

Welcome back, folks.
If you're just tuning in, this is The Stone Zone.
I'm here with my regular co-host, Troy Smith, and we're interviewing Abe Hamada, who is running for Congress in Arizona after losing a razor-thin close race for Attorney General of that state, where there is still not only an ongoing lawsuit, but I think any reasonable person would say overwhelming evidence of Irregularities, anomalies, and, well, outright fraud.
Troy, next question for Abe will come from you. - Actually, I think that Arizona is one that everyone's keeping their eyes on.
What are you seeing on the ground there?
Are you seeing people that are rejecting the Biden administration because the polls, they paint a kind of close picture, but we talked to so many people across the country, they just don't see that. - Yeah, I'll be honest, it's gonna be tough.
And the Democrats, we're dealing with really smart and nasty people here.
You know, Arizona is going to have abortion on the ballot, which is going to drive a huge Democrat turnout, which concerns me.
So it's an all out war.
But if you look at in terms of financially, in terms of what people feel safe, yes, I do think they're rejecting the Biden I mean, here in Arizona, with the wide open border, we've had a string of Chilean gangs who have been burglarizing people's homes at night.
So, it's really been terrorizing so much of these communities all across the Phoenix area.
So, if you look, you know, in terms of their safety, I think people are really scared about what's going on with our southern border.
You know, fentanyl is coming in infected so many of their of their children at their schools.
But then you look at what's happening with their wallet.
I mean, the dollar has been devalued by 24% in three years under the Biden regime.
So it's scary.
But the propagandists, which the media is full of them, they're trying to paint this picture that everything is rosy.
But I think people are feeling it in their pocketbooks.
They're feeling it in their homes.
And they're rejecting it.
But, you know, I do think that Republicans have to be very we have to walk a really tight rope, especially because the Democrats know this abortion issue.
It drives out their turnout like crazy.
So, yeah, just just two weeks ago, we had Biden in town.
We had Jill Biden before that.
We've had Kamala Harris.
So the Democrats are focusing every single energy on winning Arizona.
And, you know, Republicans just we need to make sure that we're going to turn out to vote.
And I believe rural Arizona is going to save President Trump.
I just think we're going to have turnout like we've never, ever seen before, especially in the rural counties.
And, you know, what's really on the line, I mean, our country's on the line, Troy.
I mean, I think people are waking up to that.
They're saying that how could we survive as a nation if we Some people do not understand how incredibly expensive it is to run for any public office, particularly when you're not connected to special interests.
I think people understand what's at stake and that's why you're seeing the attacks coming in all sorts of different directions.
Abe, some people do not understand how incredibly expensive it is to run for any public office, particularly when you're not connected to special interests.
There is no George Soros in the background writing giant checks to help you.
How much do you think you have to raise and how can people help you raise it?
Absolutely.
You know, I think Arizona, we're, luckily we've had the benefit of running for statewide office before, so I'm a really known commodity.
So I think this race is going to be about a million dollars or so.
It's, you know, we're well on our goal.
We just raised $300,000 last quarter, but now we're starting a new quarter.
And we got to get up on TV.
So, you know, I encourage everybody to help me out, help me take on the deep swamp.
I mean, I'm fighting in my primary, believe it or not, Roger, I'm fighting against one of my primary opponents is a Speaker of the House whose family owns the Mail-in-Ballot Company.
So I can't escape election integrity, even if I wanted to.
But they can go to my website, Abe4AZ.com, and they can help me out financially or help out volunteer on my campaign.
There you have it, folks, in the corner right there, Abe4AZ.com.
It's tough to run for office if you're not independently wealthy and the special interests are not supporting you, so I urge folks to please go there and make a generous contribution.
Abe is a fighter who can be counted on in the fight for America first and to make America great, and Abe, we thank you for joining us today in the Stone Zone.
Thank you, gentlemen.
All right, Troy.
It's interesting.
Abe raised a very interesting question.
They put abortion on the ballot in Arizona.
I note that now abortion and the legalization of cannabis are both on the ballot as constitutional amendments in the state of Florida.
This is a very clever way to drive Democrat turnout, at least they believe it is.
What do you think the impact is going to be of these ballot initiatives?
Well, uh, you know, Roger, it's interesting because abortion becomes an issue, you know, and it's getting bigger and bigger.
And as Abe just pointed out, you know, the Democrats are doing the same thing in Arizona.
Um, and Roger, you know, I think the impact of this is obvious.
You're going to have higher Democrat turnout in the state of Florida.
And my question that I would kick back to you, and I think the most important thing to ask in this whole thing, is that we have a governor in Florida who challenged Trump for the nomination, and he lost.
And though people said that he was the one that was, you know, he endorsed Trump afterwards, he didn't endorse Trump.
I mean, you and I have played that clip here.
We've talked about it.
He didn't endorse Trump.
He said Trump will be the nominee.
That's not an endorsement.
And I think the question needs to be asked.
You know, you have Republicans in control of this state.
Now we have something that's going to be incredibly convenient for the Democrats in the state of Florida.
Are DeSantis and the Florida Republicans trying to take Florida away from President Trump?
And I wanted to ask you that, Roger, because I know you're tied in with the Florida Republicans.
You know a lot of them.
Is this an effort that you see coming from the DeSantis wing of the Republicans here in Florida?
Well, I don't know that it is generated by them.
I do think that the governor's extreme position on abortion is what drove abortion advocates to put this on the ballot.
I do think that people need to recognize that Florida is not a red state.
Florida is a purple state.
The fact that the Republicans won here big in 2022 is not indicative of the tradition of much, much closer races in Florida.
Do I think President Trump will carry the state?
Yes, in the end, I do.
But to just think that the state is in the bag, Or that we don't need to have a full and completely funded and well organized effort in the Sunshine State would be absolutely wrong.
The fact that the Democrats have helped get abortion and the legalization of marijuana on the ballot demonstrates to me that they know that Florida is in play and therefore nothing here can be taken for granted.
Florida is going to be a battleground state.
Once again, I do think the president will win it.
But for our audience out there, don't think that Florida's in the bag because, well, that's not the case.
And Roger, just real quickly on this note, I want you to throw in there because, you know, I saw in the news that the Biden administration, they believe that they can win the state of Florida.
And I've also seen a lot of speculation around the Vice President that Trump may choose, and people bring up Byron Donalds, they bring up several other people in the state of Florida.
Ron DeSantis' name has been thrown out into that mix, and we all know exactly the chances of that happening.
But just as for the state of Florida, I wanted you to mention real quickly, if Trump were to choose somebody for his Vice President that was actually a resident of the state of Florida, they could end up forfeiting Yes, what you say is absolutely true, and this is kind of a fine point that people don't get.
The 12th Amendment of the Constitution actually does not specifically prohibit a party from nominating two people who are legal residents of the same state, but it essentially discourages it because it would require you to Forfeit the electoral college votes of the state if such a ticket carried the state.
So if, for example, President Trump chose Senator Marco Rubio as his running mate, just hypothetically, it's not specifically prohibited.
It could be done, but it means that when they carried the state, and they would, that the electoral votes, I think there are 37 for Florida, could not be counted for the candidate for president.
I don't—I expect this race to be close, and therefore, that is a risk that I don't think the president can take.
So, look, I love Byron Donalds.
I think he'd be great, but—and I just use him as an example—but I don't think that the president's running mate can be from Florida.
Anyway, Troy, let us move on.
You had some interesting news out of the Hunter Biden case that I'm anxious to get into.
Absolutely, Roger.
So yesterday we had news that the judge in the Hunter Biden tax case has actually rejected his motion to dismiss the charges.
And you were actually mentioned in this, and there's been a lot of talk online about people who are saying that you actually are guilty of tax evasion.
And Hunter Biden seems to have alleged this actually in his motion to dismiss his own case as well with Attorney Kevin Moore.
So I'd like you to speak on that.
Can you clear this up for us?
Were you convicted of tax evasion?
What's going on?
I'm happy to address that.
This is apples and oranges.
The Department of Justice and the IRS brought a civil suit against me in which they alleged that my wife and I had used what they called an alter ego LLC in order to hide income.
The problem with that is the LLC in question has been my principal vehicle to do business for well over 15 years.
My wife and I are on the incorporation papers.
It has filed tax returns as appropriate for every year it's been in existence.
It is the entity from which I do all my business.
I pay the few employees or part-time employees that I have.
I pay all my business expenses out of that I hid nothing.
Now, Hunter Biden failed to declare almost $10 million worth of income.
That's criminal intent.
Mrs. Stone and I never failed to declare anything.
And the allegation that we used an LLC to hide anything is obviously demonstrably false.
Yes, I do owe the IRS $2 million.
However, of that $2 million, 75% of it is interest and penalties.
So I owe them a quarter of that amount.
To say that I evaded taxes is nonsensical.
I made payments to the IRS for eight years under a So, this idea that I have somehow evaded taxes or that my situation is even remotely similar to Hunter Biden is categorically false.
with a payment, and those payments were ever increasing.
In those years in which I made more money, I had to pay the IRS more.
So this idea that I have somehow evaded taxes or that my situation is even remotely similar to Hunter Biden is categorically false.
That, by the way, is why the civil suit with the IRS and the DOJ was settled.
There is no evidence that we did anything wrong.
Like millions of Americans, I owe the IRS a lot of money, but normally in the offer and compromise system, when you simply don't have the money to pay, which I don't, The idea claimed by the government that my wife and I are living an opulent lifestyle is ludicrous.
In that process, normally, they will negotiate some reduction in interest and penalties, and then you agree on a monthly payment amount.
I'm going to be paying them for the rest of my life.
That's clear.
But normally, a normal taxpayer not named Roger Stone would be allowed to negotiate some reduction in the interest and penalties.
Unfortunately, that hasn't been the case.
So this ongoing smear on the internet, this reminds me of Nancy Pelosi's admission of the wrap-up smear.
Get some media outlet to write something that is false, then point to that as proof that that assertion is accurate, and as she puts it, merchandise it.
That's what's happened in this case.
I was glad to see the judge in this case reject that argument.
Anybody who will read the original press release accusations against me, they have no basis in reality.
I never evaded a penny.
I never failed to report a penny.
I never failed to report all of my meager assets entirely accurately.
But Troy, I appreciate you bringing it up so we could clear the air on it.
Folks, if you're just tuning in, this is the Stone Zone.
I'm here with my co-host, Troy Smythe, as I like to call him, from slingshot.news.

Bella Grace Elixir.
She called me today, and she told me something, and I said, you have got to tell the audience this.
They need to hear this, because it's really good news for those of you that, well, are taking belly grace.
Well, I went to my hairdresser, and I had not told her about this product that I've been taking.
When she was blow-drying my hair, she said, you, I just noticed when I was parting your hair and fixing it that you have a bunch of new hair growth.
I've been going to this lady for probably 13 years, and she's never said that to me.
and I had noticed it but for the fact that she the fact that she noticed it was I had to call Bran right away and tell him she just said you've never had this like this and it's growing and you just have all these baby hairs growing in and they're kind of curly and so I just told her that what I was taking and she was amazed so.
Bella Grace Delixir.
MelissaHowesBG.com Sounds rolling.
- All three cameras, we're good.
- And the speed.
- Is there any regrets that you have in life?
I should sit here and say, yeah, I got a lot of regrets.
But when I look back on my life, and I understand the lives that were lost, I mean, I'm sitting here with them.
And I can tell my story.
He was one of the most respected generals in the military.
He was, by definition, the most dangerous possible person for Donald Trump to hire.
...a brilliant military career serving 33 years. Why was he being so emulsive? Mike Flynn told the truth and Facebook him personally. Welcome
back.
You're just tuning in.
I'm Mike Stone.
This is The Stone Zone.
I'm here with my co-host Troy Smith from Slingshot.News.
Let me ask you to do two things and do them right now.
Go to StoneZone.com.
That's StoneZone.com.
Uh, where you can see all things Roger Stone, including the, uh, portal to this show, as well as my 77 WABC radio show.
Uh, also where you can get many of my products, such as the t-shirts and books and so on.
Uh, I had a great column there on RFK's, uh, horrific choice for Running Mate yesterday.
You may want to check that out.
So stonezone.com.
Subscribing is absolutely free, so I urge you to go there and sign up today.
All right, Troy, you had some political items you wanted to put on the table.
The floor is yours.
Well, thank you, Roger.
President Trump made two different campaign stops yesterday, one in Michigan and one in Wisconsin.
And during that first stop in Grand Rapids, Michigan, he was actually endorsed by the Police Officers Association of Michigan.
As we pointed out on this show and as Fox News pointed out and so many others, as President Trump was attending the wake of NYPD officer Jonathan Diller the other day in New York, President Joe Biden, at the same time, while he was in New York, skipped the wake and decided to go to a high-dollar while he was in New York, skipped the wake and decided to go to a high-dollar fundraiser with Obama and Bill Clinton that was actually overrun with pro-Palestine protesters and leftists who have taken to the streets
This is a key point, Roger, because that move signifies how much law enforcement really means to the president.
And it also highlights with the Biden administration being run by the most radical elements of the Democratic Party that have pushed anti-police policies that have actually moved to ban police across the country, While that's going on, President Trump is attending wakes and promising to stand by police officers calling them their best.
He received the endorsement of the Police Officers Association of Michigan yesterday, which includes 12,000 law enforcement officers in the state of Michigan.
We want to roll the clip of that endorsement here.
I'll leave you with this.
We supported you.
We endorsed you in 2016.
We were the first guys in Michigan.
And you sent me a little video, and we still have it.
We were proud to do it.
We were there in 2020.
And I'll tell you, we're here in 2024.
And today, on behalf of 12,000 law enforcement people that the Police Officers Association of Michigan represent, we want you to accept our endorsement for President of the United States.
Very important.
We got it.
Thank you for the time.
Thank you very much.
Wow.
Thank you very much.
That's very nice.
Thank you.
That's a great honor, and thank you very much, and we will make you proud.
We will make you proud.
Troy, I think you have hit on a very key point here, and that is between the juxtaposition of Joe Biden being propped up by Barack Obama and serial rapist Bill Clinton at the Radio City Music Hall Fat Cat fundraiser,
In New York, juxtaposed with Donald Trump making a somber visit and attending the wake of the New York City police officer who was killed by a man who had 21 prior arrests, but who New York's broken system put back out on the street.
Now you combine that with Biden's declaration that Easter, the holiest of holy days for Christians, such as myself, ...is actually Transgender Visibility Day, which is a horrific insult to Christian voters.
And then his subsequent denial that he ever said anything of the kind, even though you can find the posting on X, formerly known as Twitter, combine those things with the huge crowds outside Radio City Music Hall.
protesting genocide Joe, let me give you a hint, those people were not Republicans.
The Biden campaign has had a rough several days.
That's why, of course, they want to revert back to January 6th as an issue, trotting out police officers whose testimony has already been brought into question in terms of its veracity.
So, Joe Biden's in trouble.
He knows he's in trouble.
The Democratic National Committee is apoplectic about the fact that Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
has chosen a hardcore leftist progressive Democrat As is running mate, a woman who has funded the defund the police campaigns in California, they're now realizing that it's far more likely that if he gets on the ballot
Robert F. Kennedy is going to take a disproportionate number of votes from Joe Biden, particularly given his left-wing running mate, and also the idea that there were some voters out there who may have been thinking, as much as they like Trump, of voting instead for RFK.
I think that is now entirely off the table.
If you go to StoneZone.com, the lead story is an exposé of Nicole Shanahan, whose politics are really even unlike RFK's.
So I have to presume, given her history of left-wing activism, that she was chosen for the size of her checkbook and little else.
Well, and Roger, just real quickly, we're going to run another clip here of Trump in Grand Rapids, Michigan.
I watched that full speech.
It was very good.
He made a lot of good points.
The one thing I'd say is it was a little awkward with him reading from a note sheet, which who knows what they had to do.
The stage obviously looked crowded because they had a lot of law enforcement there.
But at the same time, Trump did his ad libs, his normal thing, and he actually said off the cuff, and it looked like part of this was off the cuff at least, he was talking about Joe Biden and how the world could end up into World War III.
It was a very powerful statement, I think it's important that we highlight it here.
But they loot the jewelry, they take their purses, electronics, watches, all of their cash, and the people come back and they say, what happened?
If you don't want illegal alien criminals crawling through your windows and ransacking your drawers, then you must vote for...
The fact that we have to throw crooked Joe Biden out as fast as possible.
The damage he can do.
And we're talking about a certain type of damage.
And even bigger damage could be World War III.
Because this guy has no clue.
He can't put two sentences together.
And he's dealing with Putin.
And he's dealing with President Xi.
And he's dealing with Kim Jong Un.
All people I know very well.
We were under no threat from anybody.
Until this guy got in office.
Now they're talking nuclear all the time.
We didn't talk nuclear.
I rebuilt our nuclear power to a level that nobody has.
But you don't mention it, and you don't talk about it.
But now Putin's talking about it.
And now Kim Jong Un again is talking about it.
You had four safe years.
You were safe because they respected your president, and they respected the United States of America.
And now you're not safe, I will tell you.
We could end up in World War III with this lunatic.
I think the president makes a very key point here, Troy, which is he is a strong believer in the peace through strength doctrine.
This is the doctrine of President Dwight Eisenhower.
It is the doctrine of Ronald Reagan.
It completely had variance with the neocon doctrine of going around the country, finding wars to get in where our inherent national interests are just not involved.
So Trump is absolutely correct.
He rebuilt our nuclear arsenal, but he knew it was a deterrent, that he didn't have to mention it.
The idea that Putin would have invaded Ukraine if Trump was president, there was never any chance of that.
The idea that Xi would invade Taiwan, That would never have happened in a Trump presidency.
Weakness provokes war.
Weakness provokes aggression.
That's really the lesson here, and the president's right.
Bad guys like Putin, who is a bad guy, and Xi, and others, certainly the Iranians, they look at Joe Biden and they see a patsy.
They see a weakling.
They probably can't believe their good luck that Joe Biden is handing them over $100 billion in Ukraine in unfrozen assets.
Does anyone really think?
That they're not going to use this money to expedite their nuclear weapons development program?
Does anyone think the Iranians are not subsidizing Hamas and Hezbollah?
Of course they are.
So, the Biden administration has figured out a way to be on both sides of the conflict in the Middle East.
The president's absolutely right.
We are this close To World War Three.
A nuclear Iran.
These are people who have no qualms about death and their own destruction.
They think they get to meet 72 virgins if they are martyred.
This is not like when we were fighting the Japanese or the Germans.
They were evil, but they wanted to live.
These people don't care about living.
They just care about destroying the United States.
This is an extraordinarily dangerous situation.
And then the situation in Ukraine, I think, is very clear.
We have at a minimum a stalemate.
We've already given them in excess of $250 billion when we can't afford to house some of our own veterans in this country.
All of this is unthinkable under a President Donald Trump.
I think this is the great plus.
Trump runs in this election as the peace candidate.
He is the one candidate who could negotiate the peace.
That's certainly true in the Russia-Ukraine situation.
We now know that there were at least two very real peace initiatives that could have saved hundreds of thousands of lives, both Russians and Ukrainians.
But those peace initiatives, those peace agreements were scuttled not by the Ukrainians, but by our own State Department.
It is very clear that the Biden administration is not interested in ending that conflict.
This administration is interested in expanding that conflict, and it's exceedingly dangerous.
If anything, We know the Russians have a horrific nuclear capability, and we have to pray that they don't choose to use it.
The whole thing is mind-boggling how dangerously close we really are to World War III.
So, the President's right.
It's not just this invasion on our southern border.
in which we are bringing in a disproportionate number of military-aged single men from the Middle East as well as China.
They're also, as we've outlined on this show, smuggling some of the most dangerous weapons into the country.
I think Trump hit it right on the head.
Folks, if you're just tuning in, this is The Stone Zone.

by Ben Thede Music by Ben Thede folks if you're just tuning in I I'm Roger Stone and of course you've entered the Stone Zone.
I'm here with my co-host Troy Smith of Slingshot.News.
If you don't subscribe to Slingshot.News, well, let me urge you to go there.
It's absolutely free, and you will get some of the most important cutting-edge political coverage in the country.
It was my colleague Troy Smith and I who first uncovered the plot by certain rhinos in the U.S.
House.
To elicit enough resignations and vacancies in that body to tip control of the lower house to the Democrats specifically for the purpose of passing legislation written by the odious Jamie Raskin that would prevent Donald Trump from being on the ballot in 2024.
If enough Republican seats are vacated, where we have a razor-thin margin of control right now, you can bet that that legislation would pass.
It would then go to the U.S.
Senate, where it would pass 51-49.
Now, if you're at home saying, well, the courts would never allow that, no, I urge you to look carefully at the Colorado ballot access decision by the Supreme Court.
The Supreme Court essentially invited this action.
They authorized it.
They said the Congress has the authority to bar Donald Trump from the ballot.
So you'll hear about this on other programs.
I'm glad to see Steve Bannon at the War Room or Dan Bongino and others talking about it.
But that story originated here and at Slingshot.com as well as The Stone Zone.
That's the kind of cutting-edge reporting you can count on, both at StoneZone.com and also at Slingshot.News.
Troy, what's up on your agenda?
Well, Roger, you know, and I just want to thank you again for plugging the site and being so kind in that, you know, I think people need to understand that Slingshot is a place where you can get really great political information.
It's a place where we're breaking stories all the time and heading into 2024.
I think it's quickly becoming a go-to outlet for a lot of people with political news, and that's a good thing.
And one of the stories that we broke, not broke, but that we covered yesterday, Roger, was about House Republicans putting forth a bill to rename Dulles International Airport after President Donald J. Trump.
And the bill was very interesting situation going on in the House with this bill because the Democrats are literally freaking out, Roger.
I've never seen the liberals freak out like they freaked out with this.
Abigail Spanberger tweeted out, this is ridiculous and it's sadly real.
Congress must act on pressing issues like reauthorizing the FAA and passing the National Security Supplemental.
Yet this is what a member of House Republican leadership focuses on.
Just freaking out.
These people are literally losing their minds.
One of Trump's first acts as president was a racist Muslim ban and how he went to Dulles and was staging this photo op with people who claimed to be affected by the ban.
It is so absurd.
I wanted to get your thoughts on the bill brought forth by Guy Restenshaler of Pennsylvania to rename Dulles International Airport after Donald J. Trump.
It's just causing so much controversy.
I must tell you, Troy, I find this enormously amusing and enjoyable.
I think the good representative here is just punking the Democrats, and clearly he knows that even if the House did pass this legislation under the current configuration, the Senate would not do so.
But then across the country, there are many, many public buildings, both federal and state, named inappropriately.
Across the land, there are a number of public edifices that are named for Lyndon Baines Johnson, a man who used the N-word repeatedly, the man who blocked every meaningful piece of civil rights legislation as Senate Majority from the 50s, the man who blocked voting rights legislation, the man who blocked housing legislation, the man who inserted the poison pill
in the 1958 Civil Rights Act, which was the first major piece of civil rights legislation to pass the Senate since the Civil War.
But Lyndon Johnson made sure that if an individual was charged under that act, well, they would be tried in a state, not a federal court system.
So if a white man was accused of denying a black man their rights in, say, Mississippi or Louisiana or Georgia, they would go before a state jury.
And in the 1960s, certainly, no state jury in those states would ever convict a white man of a crime against a black man.
So, I guess if I ever had control of both houses, I would want to strip Lyndon Baines Johnson's name from every public building.
Speaking of that, I do want to recommend to you my book, The Man Who Killed Kennedy, The Case Against LBJ.
If you're interested in history, or you like politics, Or you're just intrigued by the ongoing mystery of who really killed Lyndon Johnson, pardon me, John Kennedy, and why I recommend this book.
Now you can get it by going to TheManWhoKilledKennedy.com.
TheManWhoKilledKennedy.com.
I actually only offered the paperback version because it has three extra chapters in which I use deep state skullduggery.
eyewitness evidence, fingerprint evidence, and deep Texas politics to make the case that it was LBJ who headed a cabal that included the Central Intelligence Agency, Big Texas Oil, organized crime, the banking interests, to kill John F. the banking interests, to kill John F. Kennedy.
I strongly recommend that you not go to Barnes & Noble or Amazon to order your copy.
Why give money to multinational corporations who hate your guts?
When you can go to TheManWhoKilledKennedy.com and get your autographed copy today.
If you do choose to buy it elsewhere, that's fine, but be sure you get the paperback edition.
That's the one with the mugshots of LBJ on the cover.
This has three additional chapters that I wrote after the hardcover was published, and it is much superior.
Anyway, Troy, thank you for the setup on that question.
Absolutely, Roger, and the idea of the Democrats freaking out about changing the airport is hilarious, and I would love to see, in the future, liberals canceling their travel plans to go through Dulles.
No changeovers in Dulles, or should we call it Donald J. Trump International Airport.
And you know, when I referred to it just in my personal life, I'm going to call it Trump Airport from now on, just to piss off the liberals, because it's funny.
And this morning we had a clip, Roger, that I just want to show quickly and get your thoughts on this.
You know, it was it was kind of amazing because usually when you see Jill Biden anywhere, she looks like she's wearing the drapes that she pulled off of, you know, a window in her house.
But this morning, you know, she actually looked kind of professional.
She was on CBS this morning and she snapped at a host who highlighted a recent Wall Street Journal poll that shows her husband, Joe Biden, losing in six of seven battleground states to former President Trump.
Jill Biden actually snaps at the host for bringing this up.
Let's roll that clip and get Roger's thoughts.
But when these polls like the Wall Street Journal one land in the White House and he's losing all the battleground states.
No, he's not losing in all the battleground states.
All but one.
He's coming up and he's even or doing better.
So, you know what?
Once people start to focus in and they see their two choices, it's obvious that Joe will win this election.
All right.
Wow, that was pretty defensive.
What does she know that we don't know?
I mean, maybe she knows something about how the votes are going to be counted.
Maybe that's why she's so entirely confident that the worst president in American history is going to win re-election.
That was a great clip.
Although, you could see from that angry press conference he did when the special counsel's report came out, Joe is delusional.
He actually says he's the most qualified person in the country to be president.
That's laughable.
He doesn't know what day of the week it is.
And then he goes on to say, who else could have done what I've done?
Absolutely.
Who could have driven gasoline taxes to the highest point in recent history?
Who could have gotten us the record inflation that we have today?
Who could drive the country to the brink of World War III?
Who could open our southern border to tens of millions of illegals causing a fentanyl crisis and a crime crisis and a fiscal crisis in the United States?
He's absolutely right.
Who else could do those things other than hapless Joe Biden?
This guy is not all there.
What you saw there, however, I think is significant, because it's Jill Biden who doesn't want to leave the White House.
It's Kamala Harris who doesn't want Joe to go, because she knows that she would be quickly discarded by the Democratic Party leaders.
So I think there's great internal tension in the Democratic Party today.
They're looking at these polls.
James Carville, who I know pretty well, yesterday he said, that correctly, younger voters are deserting the Democrats by the droves.
There's the reality that Jill Biden refuses to face.
Good choice with that clip, Troy.
Thank you, Roger.
And I think it's important to point out, there's a lot of things going on around Joe Biden, but one thing we can be sure of is that he's not making the calls.
And the idea, it's a response that I see very often from women across this country who say, How could a wife do this to her husband?
How could she parade him out there?
She knows just... I mean, she knows better than us, Roger.
She's lived with the guy.
She knows that he's not all there.
She knows that he's wandering around with the Easter Bunny.
She's right by his side, you know, pulling on his arm, you know, going along with this.
What does it say about her character, Roger, that she's kind of putting her husband through this?
I think it's... I think it's awful, and I don't think the optics come off like they think...
They do.
I think these people think that the optics are... And this was revealed in some weird article that was published a couple weeks ago, where it was revealed that Joe Biden makes inappropriate comments to his staffers about his sexual life with Jill, and telling his staffers that the secret to a good marriage is the weird stuff that him and his wife do in the bedroom.
I mean, look, Joe, we get it.
And truth be told, Roger, if that were anybody else, a CEO of a major company, talking to his lower employees about how he bangs his wife or how his sex life, I mean, he would be charged with sexual harassment.
He'd be Harvey Weinstein in two seconds.
But because this guy's the president, he gets a pass?
I mean, it's unbelievable.
Yeah, it really, really is bizarre.
All right.
