=== Mayor's Sympathies Divide City (06:49) ===

[00:00:00]  Rural Americans deserve access to the best of what our nation has to offer, especially health care.
[00:00:06]  Across every state and every community, America's rural hospitals are the first line of defense, protecting our families, neighbors, and loved ones.
[00:00:15]  No matter where you live, hospital care doesn't clock out.
[00:00:18]  They're there 24 hours a day, seven days a week, 365 days a year.
[00:00:23]  Each year, America's over 5,000 hospitals care for millions of patients, providing 24-7 emergency care, delivering babies, cancer treatments, and other life-saving care that patients rely on.
[00:00:36]  Behind every one of those patients are doctors, nurses, and caregivers working tirelessly to keep people healthy and safe.
[00:00:44]  Hospitals are our community's lifelines.
[00:00:46]  They employ our neighbors and keep our families healthy.
[00:00:49]  But now, some in Congress are threatening access to care.
[00:00:53]  Tell Congress, protect patient care to keep America strong.
[00:00:57]  Don't cut rural health care.
[00:01:01]  The Stone Zone.
[00:01:02]  Entertaining and informative.
[00:01:04]  on the red apple podcast network this is the stone zone with roger stone People love him and respect him.
[00:01:22]  Roger Stone.
[00:01:24]  Now, in the zone, it's the Stone Zone.
[00:01:28]  Here's Roger Stone.
[00:01:31]  You are now entering the Stone Zone.
[00:01:35]  This is the day political junkies like me live for.
[00:01:40]  But with the polls open for yet another hour in New York City, I think New Yorkers need to focus intensely on Zoran Miamdami and what his being mayor really means.
[00:01:53]  You see, Zoran Miamdami is not just another progressive.
[00:01:58]  He's a radical ideologue born of the same foreign militant sympathies that have infected academia and New York City politics for years now.
[00:02:09]  A member of the Democratic Socialists of America, he preaches Marxist redistribution, identifies with the global south's revolutionary movements, and defends terror-linked groups under the banner of quote-unquote liberation.
[00:02:25]  If this man becomes mayor of New York City, as now appears likely, the world's financial capital will cease to resemble the shining metropolis it once was when I was younger and stand as a monument to freedom and enterprise no longer.
[00:02:39]  This would not be the first time that New Yorkers elected a man with allegiances to alien American values.
[00:02:46]  Bill de Blasio, who by the way is not Italian, his real name is Warren Wilhelm Jr., perhaps the worst mayor in New York City history, publicly supported and joined the Sandinistas in Nicaragua, once honeymooned in communist Cuba, and was so compromised that he could not obtain the basic security clearances routinely granted to every mayor when he traveled as mayor of New York City outside the country.
[00:03:14]  Under his leadership, crime surged, police morale collapsed, and the city descended into filth and lawlessness.
[00:03:23]  Eric Adams did not make it much better.
[00:03:26]  And now, with Miam Dami, New York Tears on the edge of something that I think is far, far darker.
[00:03:32]  He's expressed sympathy for groups that glorify jihad and celebrate anti-American terrorism.
[00:03:40]  His public associations include individuals who've defended Hamas and who cheer the enemies of Western civilization.
[00:03:47]  He's cloaked his ideology in the rhetoric of social justice, but the brand of socialism is soaked in resentment and hostility towards the very freedoms and the working class people who make New York City thrive.
[00:04:03]  Make no doubt about it.
[00:04:05]  Under Miam Dami, crime will explode.
[00:04:08]  The police will be vilified, defunded, and demoralized.
[00:04:11]  They've already been politicized.
[00:04:14]  Prosecutors would treat criminals as victims and victims as obstacles to equity.
[00:04:19]  The gangs that now terrorize parts of the Bronx, Brooklyn, and would expand their reach into neighborhoods that we used to consider safe will extend their reach.
[00:04:31]  Investors will flee.
[00:04:32]  Real estate prices will collapse.
[00:04:34]  The great towers of Manhattan would empty as confidence evaporates, and we will watch capital fleets to Florida, Texas, and Dubai.
[00:04:43]  But beyond economics lies a deeper cultural rot.
[00:04:47]  Miam Dami's brand of political Islam does not merely coexist with Western liberalism, it seeks to replace it.
[00:04:55]  His ideological roots trace to movements that reject the very notion of religious freedom, of women's rights, of tolerance, and gay and lesbian citizens.
[00:05:04]  Under the law he reveres, homosexuality is not only tolerated, it is punished.
[00:05:09]  The rainbow flags that now flutter above City Hall would come down quickly, replaced by the grim banners of justice as defined by those who despise the West.
[00:05:20]  New York's Jewish population will face a new wave of hostility, masquerading as anti-Zionism.
[00:05:27]  The city's Christian schools would be shamed for their traditions.
[00:05:30]  Those schools would be indoctrination centers for revolutionary politics.
[00:05:36]  City Hall would become a propaganda outpost for anti-American causes.
[00:05:41]  And the state will seize a control and run all of the grocery stores.
[00:05:46]  If Miam Dami wins, the city that never sleeps will awaken to a nightmare.
[00:05:51]  The lights of Broadway will dim.
[00:05:54]  The Wall Street bell will sound hollow.
[00:05:57]  The skylines will stand, but its spirit will be gone.
[00:06:01]  What will remain is a husk of a once great city ruled by a man whose sympathies lie not with the police officers, not with the entrepreneur, not with the hardworking, struggling, taxpaying family, working-class family, but with those who burn American flags and chant for our destruction.
[00:06:20]  New Yorkers still have a choice.
[00:06:22]  They can either remember the lessons of de Blasio's Santinista romance and say never again, or they can surrender their city to the next chapter of socialist decay.
[00:06:32]  If Sorayan Miamdami is elected mayor, New York will be governed.
[00:06:36]  It will be occupied.
[00:06:39]  There is no more frustrating day for someone who's spent their life in the corroded rectum of the two-party system for over 40 years.

=== New Jersey's Election Battle (12:23) ===

[00:06:49]  And it is amazing how much elections, of course, have changed.
[00:06:53]  Donald Trump has tried through executive order to get us back where we were, one day voting, paper ballots, all counted in one day.
[00:07:00]  Instead, early voting has made the process extremely unreliable.
[00:07:06]  Attorney General Bill Barr said that in an interview on Fox, although when he was presented actual evidence of voter fraud as Attorney General, he elected to do nothing about it.
[00:07:18]  But he said mail-in ballots are an open invitation for fraud, and indeed they are.
[00:07:25]  And then in this day and age, polling, which everybody who loves politics loves to follow, the poll's polling has become far more difficult.
[00:07:33]  You see, a poll, a real poll, that is a poll that is conducted to try to actually measure public opinion and the current situation, not a poll that is designed to show a specific result.
[00:07:45]  Those are called push polls, or a poll can be constructed to create positive polling to be used in fundraising for a candidate or a party.
[00:07:56]  That's not what I'm speaking of.
[00:07:57]  But the polls are taken by some in the media, the polls taken by professional pollsters, have a number of variables.
[00:08:05]  Remember, this is a snapshot in time.
[00:08:07]  By the time it is tabulated and reported, it is already outdated, meaning the electorate is volatile.
[00:08:13]  The sample size is extraordinarily important.
[00:08:16]  A small sample size is extremely unreliable.
[00:08:18]  A larger sample size, properly drawn and balanced, gives you the ability to look at subgroups of voters, say a white and an African-American, Hispanic, Catholic, Jewish, younger, older, and so on, and examine the impact of issues and political stances on a more individualized basis.
[00:08:40]  But then there's such a thing as order bias.
[00:08:42]  The order of the questions has to be asked in a way that does not taint the ballot when you try to take it.
[00:08:50]  So when you look at the real polls, this race has been over for some time.
[00:08:56]  You look at the unfavorable rating of all three candidates.
[00:08:59]  Mamdami's started low.
[00:09:02]  It has finally ended up somewhere around 38.
[00:09:05]  While the unfavorable rating for Andrew Cuomo, the former governor, I've seen it as high as 62 and 63.
[00:09:12]  Curtis Sliwa, 20 years plus on radio, had an unfavorable that was lower than both of theirs, but he was about 54, I think.
[00:09:23]  And then Eric Adams, who was into the stratosphere.
[00:09:27]  The other thing I would caution you about are exit polls.
[00:09:31]  In 1980, I worked on Ronald Reagan's campaign, handling the northeastern states of New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut.
[00:09:39]  During that campaign, I met and was impressed with a former speaker of the New Jersey Assembly, Tom Kaine.
[00:09:47]  And in 1981, I pitched him to run his campaign for governor of the Garden State.
[00:09:52]  It was my first solo gig.
[00:09:55]  We started 29 points behind the favorite Congressman Jim Florio making his second bid for governor.
[00:10:02]  Tom Kaine was well liked in the Republican Party, but he came out of a nine-way primary as the winner.
[00:10:09]  He had run for Congress in 1974 and lost in the primary to Melissa Fenwick, Millicent Fenwick, pardon me, who basically urged him to get into the race and then double-crossed him, kind of this WASP treachery out there in Hunt Country.
[00:10:25]  Then he ran for governor in 1977, and he ran as a liberal Republican.
[00:10:31]  So, of course, he lost to Senator Ray Bateman.
[00:10:35]  I put my heart and soul into Tom's campaign.
[00:10:39]  At the end of the campaign, there was something that came to light called the Ballot Security Task Force, which it is alleged sought to discourage African American voters.
[00:10:52]  The investigation that proved that neither Tom Kaine nor I knew anything about that.
[00:10:57]  That was, I think, ceased to mar his election, but he won by 1,209 votes out of 2 million cast.
[00:11:07]  But on election day, having poured my heart and soul into this, Marty Plissner, who was the director of polling for CBS and known to everybody in politics, called me and said, Well, it's over.
[00:11:20]  I said, Pardon me.
[00:11:21]  Polls hadn't even closed yet, of course.
[00:11:23]  He said, Well, our early polling shows that your guy got blown out.
[00:11:27]  I said, Really?
[00:11:28]  And I was, of course, relatively dejected.
[00:11:30]  I elected not to tell candidate Kane this because we had run a letter-perfect campaign.
[00:11:38]  He had moved himself to the right for the Republican primary by endorsing a tax cut plan that was authored by Jeffrey Bell.
[00:11:48]  Jack Kemp came in to campaign for him and he won that primary.
[00:11:53]  And then we were counted out by everybody.
[00:11:57]  It helps that Jim Florio, who would later go out to be one of the most unpopular governors in New Jersey, would triple the state income tax.
[00:12:06]  That happened, of course, after he came back post-Kane.
[00:12:11]  Kane was a very successful governor.
[00:12:13]  But I learned then you cannot count on these Election Day exit polls.
[00:12:20]  And you get a bunch of fragmentary information during the day.
[00:12:23]  I will say this.
[00:12:24]  If Miam Dami is elected, it will very greatly, in my opinion, increase the odds that Elise Stefanik, a Republican congresswoman from upstate, will be the next governor of the Empire State.
[00:12:39]  Take into that consideration the incredible unpopularity of Governor Kathy Hochul, who, even though Hokul endorsed Miam Dami, Miam Dami in the debate, when asked if he supported Hochul's re-election, said he did not.
[00:12:53]  That shows you that Hochul is beholden to the most radical fringe of the New York Democrat Party, the party of AOC, indeed the party of Zoran Miam Dami, but also shows epic weakness.
[00:13:08]  I look at a lot of polling.
[00:13:10]  I've never seen unfavorable polling ratings like Kathy Kochle currently has.
[00:13:14]  She's vulnerable.
[00:13:16]  The decline of New York City will have an impact on the suburbs as well as upstate, greatly increases the chances for Stefanik, who I think is a more than viable candidate.
[00:13:27]  She's an incredibly capable member of Congress.
[00:13:30]  She has been a leader in the fight against the weaponization of our criminal justice system.
[00:13:36]  She has fought for essentially the missile defense system, which has already been appropriated by the contract and which belongs at Fort Drum in New York, but has still, because Biden dragged his feet, still not been done.
[00:13:50]  She has been a great fighter for the taxpayers, and I think she's going to be a very strong candidate.
[00:13:56]  I thought Lee Zeldon ran a very good race with lesser resources last time, but this time, I think particularly with the election, Miam Dami, if it goes down that way today, Elise Stefanik may very well be the next governor of the Empire State.

[00:15:11]  This is the Stone Zone with Roger Stone.
[00:15:15]  Roger Stone is a very, very, one of the smartest political minds.
[00:15:19]  Roger Stone was persecuted.
[00:15:20]  People forget he's actually a brilliant, brilliant political analyst.
[00:15:23]  Now, give him a zone.
[00:15:25]  It's the Stone Zone.
[00:15:27]  Here's Roger Stone.
[00:15:30]  I appreciate those warm words from Vice President JD Vance, who I'll be seeing this Friday.
[00:15:39]  It is interesting with Democrats in New York City split between the radical socialist Zoran Miamdami and former Governor Andrew Cuomo, Chuck Schumer, the U.S. Senator from New York, the senior U.S. Senator People, who asked if he voted for the Democratic nominee, Miam Dami.
[00:15:56]  Let's roll this.
[00:15:58]  Today is Election Day in New York City.
[00:16:00]  Did you vote for her money or Cuomo?
[00:16:02]  Look, I voted, and I look forward to working with the next mayor to help New York City.
[00:16:07]  Now, is that a politician?
[00:16:10]  He is scared to death of the radical fringe of his party that he knows elected AOC over the chairman of the Queens County Democratic Machine, former Congressman Joe Crowley, and he's worried that if AOC runs against him, she would beat him in the primary like a drum.
[00:16:30]  She can certainly raise the money.
[00:16:33]  If you look at the financing of Miam Dami, it's not a grassroot fundraising monolith.
[00:16:39]  It is a series of interconnected 501c3s, 501c4s, nonprofits, NGOs, as well as political parties all hitched together and sending money between them illegally.
[00:16:55]  This has all been covered extensively by my friend Sam Antar at whitecollarfraud.com.
[00:17:02]  There were multiple bomb threats earlier today at different precincts in New Jersey, which resulted in the closure of at least two precincts.
[00:17:09]  Apparently, the coordinated series of these bomb threats occurred in Bergen, Essex, Mercer, Middlesex, Monmouth, Ocean, and Passay counties.
[00:17:19]  Without evidence, of course, the socialist New York City mayoral candidate Zoran Miam Dami immediately blamed President Trump and his supporters.
[00:17:27]  He said, we have to understand this as part of the general approach Trump administration is taking, trying to intimidate voters with baseless allegations of voter fraud as a means of trying to repress the voice of Americans across the country.
[00:17:40]  There's been more than adequate evidence of voter fraud, both in New York State and throughout the country.
[00:17:47]  This isn't just trying to kind of score last-minute points.
[00:17:52]  The polls are now closed in New Jersey.
[00:17:54]  We're waiting for the earliest returns.
[00:17:56]  I must say, to give Jack Chitterelli credit, this is a state that Trump lost by five in 2020.
[00:18:04]  It was not a targeted state.
[00:18:05]  That's with all the money essentially being raised locally by Mike Crispy and others.
[00:18:09]  But he lost it by 15 points in 2020.
[00:18:14]  He only lost it by five in 2024.
[00:18:17]  That's despite the demographic trend.
[00:18:19]  And I do think that Chitterelli exposed Mikey Sherrill, the congresswoman, as a hypocrite.
[00:18:26]  She couldn't remember that she had made three stock trades that garnered her $7 million, tripling her net worth based on information she got as a member of the House Defense Appropriations Committee, for which she paid a fine.
[00:18:41]  I don't care whether you're a Republican, a Democrat, or Independent.
[00:18:45]  You don't like corruption and the insiders scamming the system.
[00:18:50]  It is an uphill climb, however, for Jack Chitterelli, who I think has run a very good campaign with the more limited resources.
[00:18:58]  New Jersey does have public finance, does let a candidate compete.
[00:19:02]  I think he's run a good race.
[00:19:03]  On the other hand, I think it is difficult to beat the machines in Bergen and Essex and Camden, where they have stealing down to an art form.

[00:20:02]  It's the Stone Zone.
[00:20:04]  A man who's gone through hell, but he's kept going and he's smart and he's strong and people love him.
[00:20:11]  Not everybody, but people love him and respect him.
[00:20:13]  Roger Stone wins righteous.
[00:20:15]  Here's Roger Stone.
[00:20:18]  Welcome back into the Stone Zone.
[00:20:21]  Former Vice President Dick Cheney is now dead at the age of 84 after multiple heart transplants, as I recall.
[00:20:30]  I was surprised that Darth Vader was still alive.
[00:20:33]  Dick Cheney was the ultimate Washington insider.
[00:20:38]  He first worked for Don Rumsfeld, who was the Secretary of Defense under George W. Bush, who had clashed with George H.W. Bush during the Nixon years.
[00:20:50]  Then later, Dick Cheney was the White House chief of staff under President Gerald Ford.
[00:20:57]  He was one of the most vicious leakers and understanders of how to use power in American political history.
[00:21:06]  When George W. Bush, the governor of Texas, had been essentially locked up the votes to be nominated for president.
[00:21:14]  He called on Dick Cheney to head his vice presidential search committee.
[00:21:19]  And Cheney systematically eliminated every other viable candidate, ended up nominating, suggesting the nomination of, well, Dick Cheney.
[00:21:30]  It was as Vice President of the United States that Dick Cheney basically sold the American people on an unnecessary war based on a lie.
[00:21:38]  It was Cheney who fabricated the idea that Iraq and Saddam Hussein had yellow cake uranium, had access and the ability to make nuclear devices, weapons of mass destruction.
[00:21:52]  He also claimed completely falsely that the Iraqis were somehow involved in the attack on America on 9-11.
[00:22:01]  While there are many open questions that I think matters to explore regarding 9-11, there's still no evidence.
[00:22:08]  I've seen no evidence that Iraq played a role on those attacks on America.
[00:22:13]  That war cost, in the short term, about $1.9 trillion.
[00:22:21]  Literally, hundreds of thousands of Iraqis died.
[00:22:25]  Tens of thousands of Americans died.
[00:22:29]  But Halliburton, where Dick Cheney went to become chairman, where he was chairman before he became vice president, where he was a board member after he was vice president.
[00:22:40]  And of course, Dick Cheney's stock in Halliburton was in a blind trust.
[00:22:44]  Although how blind can your trust be if you know you have Halliburton stock in it?
[00:22:49]  Halliburton scored literally billions of dollars in federal contracts growing out of the destruction of Iraq and the Iraq war.
[00:22:58]  The media despised Dick Cheney.
[00:23:01]  They treated him like Darth Vader, as I say.
[00:23:06]  Very, very fine movie made that literally destroyed him.
[00:23:12]  I think it was an Oliver Stone film.
[00:23:15]  But it's amazing the way the media flipped on Dick Cheney when his daughter, Liz Cheney, Queen of the Rhinos, basically rose to be a critic and indeed an attempted destroyer of President Donald Trump.
[00:23:31]  Now, while it's the Iraq War that ultimately defines Cheney's legacy, he was a warmonger who couldn't hesitate to lie and rip up the Constitution to enrich himself in his business interests.
[00:23:41]  But his daughter, Liz, was run out of politics by President Donald Trump when she was exposed in the entire January 6th hoax.
[00:23:50]  She and her totally fraudulent committee put on this kabuki theater hearing paid for, or I should say, orchestrated for by a television producer where they made AI videos, they enhanced the sound and others.
[00:24:05]  They ignored certain important witnesses while they induced others like Cassidy Hutchison, a White House aide, to lie.
[00:24:15]  That will be the legacy of Liz Cheney.
[00:24:19]  She was ignominiously defeated in the Republican primary when she returned to Wyoming.
[00:24:27]  I don't think that I can say much more other than the fact that the media now reveres a man that they previously hated.
[00:24:33]  Why?
[00:24:34]  Well, because he's not Donald J. Trump.
[00:24:37]  Meanwhile, the disgraced former FBI director James Comey is facing felony charges related to perjuring himself.
[00:24:45]  He maintains his innocence, but an inconvenient memo has now emerged in Discovery showing that Comey knew of Hillary Clinton's plan to frame President Donald Trump as a Russian agent before the 2016 presidential election.
[00:25:00]  He specifically denied that under oath.
[00:25:02]  Comey's handwritten note, authored in September 2016, referenced the HRC plan to tie Trump to the Russians.
[00:25:13]  This was found in a burn bag at a sensitive compartmentalized information facility in FBI's headquarters.
[00:25:21]  Whoever forgot to or purposely decided not to destroy this document did the public a service.
[00:25:29]  Comey's story that he was a good faith actor responding to legitimate concerns about Donald Trump is falling apart.
[00:25:38]  Comey knew then, just as he knows now, that the Steel dossier, that secret report that was paid for and commissioned by Hillary Clinton illegally and which falsely claimed that Donald Trump as a private businessman had dallied with prostitutes in Moscow when he visited there as a private businessman.
[00:25:59]  He also knew that there is no evidence to this day that Russian intelligence or anyone else was successfully conducted an online hack of the Democrat National Committee with the overwhelming forensic evidence indicating that the information from the Democrat National Committee that they insisted through crowd strikes,
[00:26:21]  the IT company who examined their servers, had been formed by the Russians had indeed been downloaded to a portable disk and taken out the back door.
[00:26:33]  Of course, the judge in my case would not let my defense attorneys raise that issue when the question of the DNC alleged hack happened.
[00:26:43]  Additionally, prosecutors have now discovered a tranche of emails from Comey that further indicate his guilt.
[00:26:49]  He showed that he anticipated to work under Clinton and Comey, worked with his close friend Dan Richman.
[00:26:56]  Richmond is among those that he gave classified information to leak, according to the indictment, to craft a narrative with the propaganda merchants of the New York Times.
[00:27:06]  Comey is likely to be the first domino to fall if John Brennan, James Clapper, Susan Rice, Andrew McCabe, Rod Rosenstein, Robert Mueller himself, and many others are yet indicted.
[00:27:17]  Whether that happens remains to be seen.
[00:27:19]  That they are guilty of gross violations of law and the Constitution, as well as, I believe, seditious conspiracy, a seditious conspiracy that is born in the White House on July 17th of 2017, with Barack Hussein Obama in the chair, but that includes Vice President Joe Biden and the aforementioned gentleman, Brennan Clapper McCabe, and of course Susan Rice was also present.
[00:27:48]  Samantha Powers, the U.N. ambassador, earlier, I think the National Security Advisor, James Clapper, particularly after lying to Congress, all these people must be brought to justice.
[00:27:59]  Whether the current Attorney General and Deputy Attorney General do that remains to be seen.
[00:28:05]  But up now for trial, Letitia James and James Comey, both in the Eastern District of New York, they seek to question the legality of the appointment of Lindsey Halligan.
[00:28:19]  But Lindsay Halligan today kind of proved herself when in Discovery she produced the stunning evidence of James Comey's guilt, on which, of course, his indictment was based.
[00:28:31]  Lindsey Halligan was appointed to the position of U.S. Attorney, interim U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia when it was learned that the previous U.S. attorney, Eric Sieber, a Trump appointee, who was not confirmed by the Senate, had been recommended by Governor Glenn Young, had the support of Virginia's two Democrat senators.
[00:28:57]  There's a tip-off right there that he's a deep stater.
[00:29:00]  But he never disclosed the fact that in the case of James Comey, he had a stunning conflict of interest.
[00:29:06]  His father-in-law, that is his wife's father, was not only godfather to one of Comey's daughters, but had also represented Comey as an attorney.
[00:29:18]  That's a stunning conflict of interest.
[00:29:20]  Donald Trump essentially fired Siebert when he learned this.
[00:29:23]  Turns out Siebert had prepared a 51-page memo outlining why James Comey should not be indicted.
[00:29:31]  And of course, Lindsey Halligan went to a grand jury, unaided, as I understand it, by anyone else at the Justice Department and convinced a grand jury to indict.
[00:29:42]  She did the same thing regarding New York Attorney General Letitia James.
[00:29:49]  Letitia James yesterday filed a motion that would have required the U.S. Attorney to keep a record of all contacts they have with the media and make it available to the defendant, but the judge denied.
[00:30:02]  I found this kind of comical.
[00:30:04]  The judges, the prosecutors in my case, leaked like a sieve before, after, and during my trial.
[00:30:09]  Yet I was gagged unconstitutionally.
[00:30:13]  I was not allowed to defend myself in any medium at all, not radio, not television, not social media, lest I be immediately jailed.
[00:30:22]  The judge in my case also prohibited my defense attorneys from raising the question of whether I had been selectively prosecuted or whether I had been politically targeted.
[00:30:35]  Letitia James asked the judge today whether she could argue that she was selectively prosecuted.
[00:30:42]  On the other hand, why isn't Letitia James and James Comey gagged like they gagged me?
[00:30:47]  And will the judge let them raise those questions in their own defense, that they were selectively prosecuted and that they were politically targeted?
[00:30:55]  Somehow, I don't think so.
[00:30:57]  This is a Biden-appointed judge.
[00:31:00]  These cases will be very interesting, particularly the case of Comey.
[00:31:03]  Is it a harbinger for the cases to come against John Brennan, who looked very sweaty yesterday in a video I saw him and he was confronted by just a citizen journalist and he got very hot and bothered and he looked like a man who was in a panic.
[00:31:19]  Is that the next domino to fall?
[00:31:21]  Meanwhile, the BBC, it turns out, the British Broadcasting Corporation, doctored a speech given by President Trump on January 6, 2021, to make it sound as if he encouraged his supporters to commit acts of violence on that day in order to feed the false insurrection narrative pushed by the left.
[00:31:42]  It always aggravates me late at night on X to read those who say repeatedly that Roger Stone plotted with the Proud Boys and the Oath Keepers regarding the events of January 6th.
[00:31:54]  There's no evidence of that whatsoever.
[00:31:57]  Any claim that I knew in advance about, participated in, or condoned any illegal action on January 6th or any other date for that matter is categorically false.
[00:32:06]  The FBI investigated that claim thoroughly, and as Reuters reported, they found no evidence of my involvement.
[00:32:14]  But an internal whistleblower memo now shows that BBC deliberately took President Trump out of context to make it seem like he instructed his supporters to go to the Capitol and fight like hell.
[00:32:26]  In actuality, President Trump told his supporters on January 6th to, quote, peacefully and patriotically make your voices heard.
[00:32:37]  Virtually all of the online social media platforms banned that link, particularly of President Donald Trump, because it proves that he did not incite violence on January 6th.
[00:32:50]  But the fight like hell comment came much later when President Trump was speaking about the corrupt election process.
[00:32:56]  By piecing the two together, they tried to make it appear that Trump was advocating for violence at the Capitol, which he was not.
[00:33:04]  The memo stated that BBC's chairman and senior executive refused to listen to complaints from their own standards and practices department.
[00:33:13]  They were told that it was a very, very dangerous precedent that they were setting and that it would be dishonest propaganda if they put it on the air.
[00:33:22]  But the chairman of the BBC and his senior executives moved forward despite their staff and legal advice to the contrary because they believed that stopping Donald Trump was more important than anything else.
[00:33:35]  This is no surprise why the United Kingdom is in a shambles today with radical Islam running roughshod over the country, the British citizens who voice their anguish on social media getting arrested by authorities.
[00:33:47]  The BBC has failed the people of Britain and the people of the world.
[00:33:52]  Thank goodness you can listen to us here on the Red Apple Audio Networks where we bring you the inside skinny on American politics from someone who, as I say, spent 50 years in the corroded rectum of the two-party system.
[00:34:07]  I have been a Republican and I have been a libertarian.
[00:34:10]  I've always been a conservative and today I am a Christian.
[00:34:14]  And I try to give you the inside skinny on the political scene.
[00:34:20]  And for example, the question of Andrew Cuomo.
[00:34:24]  This idea that if a candidate had dropped out, another candidate would have inherited all of those votes.
[00:34:29]  That's actually not accurate.
[00:34:30]  And frankly, a lot of Republicans have institutional opposition to Andrew Cuomo because he's a man who once said, if you believe in the right to own a gun or you don't support the right to an abortion, you need to leave New York State.
[00:34:47]  The idea that if one candidate dropped out, the other candidate would inherit all their votes is false anyway.
[00:34:54]  I think that Andrew Cuomo will fall short tonight, but we're still waiting for the polls to close.

=== Restricting AI Impersonations (04:50) ===

[00:34:59]  We can talk about that when it happens.
[00:35:01]  I'm Roger Stone, listening to Stone Zone.
[00:35:04]  For the Inside Skinny on American politics, you're in the right place.
[00:35:08]  This is the Stone Zone with Roger Stone.
[00:35:12]  He likes politics and he's a professional at the highest level.
[00:35:16]  Roger Stone.
[00:35:18]  Where's Roger?
[00:35:32]  The Stone Zone.
[00:35:34]  Entertaining and informative.
[00:35:36]  on the Red Apple Podcast Network.
[00:35:48]  This is the Stone Zone with Roger Stone.
[00:35:52]  Roger Stone is the very, very one of the smartest political minds.
[00:35:56]  Roger Stone was persecuted.
[00:35:57]  People forget he's actually a brilliant, brilliant political analyst now.
[00:36:01]  Give him a zone.
[00:36:02]  It's the stone zone.
[00:36:04]  Here's Roger Stone.
[00:36:08]  You know, I have to say, I think AI, artificial intelligence, while I can see the many benefits, I think it is extraordinarily dangerous.
[00:36:16]  Not only can they create an audio or a video of anyone, including me, saying things that you never said.
[00:36:23]  You've seen these audios and videos of Barack Obama and Donald Trump, Joe Biden, and so on.
[00:36:30]  They can create a robocall for telephones in which Joe Biden urges Democrat voters in the New Hampshire primary not to vote.
[00:36:39]  That was actually a mini scandal that really happened.
[00:36:43]  But now I'm glad to see that ChatGPT, one of the leading AI providers, has changed its algorithm to deny medical, financial, and legal advice to people using this powerful computer-sized system.
[00:36:56]  The company's policies now state that open AI cannot be used for any provisions of tailored advice that requires a license, such as a legal or medical advice, without appropriate involvement by a licensed professional.
[00:37:10]  So this may make it more difficult for ChatGPT to help coerce some people to kill themselves until recently.
[00:37:17]  If you asked them for suicide advice, they would actually provide it.
[00:37:22]  There have been horrible instances in recent months where vulnerable children would ask ChatGPT for tips on committing suicide because they knew how to manipulate the prompts and sidestep the extremely loose restrictions.
[00:37:35]  They were able to actually help formulate their suicide plans from the web service.
[00:37:42]  This is truly evil and demonic.
[00:37:45]  I don't think we can rely on ChatGPT or Grok or any of the other leading AI instruments to do the right thing.
[00:37:54]  I think they've created a monster.
[00:37:56]  And these tech elites who may be saying the right things now that President Trump is in office because they want to kiss up to him for federal contracts, but cannot in fact be trusted.
[00:38:08]  I think we need to have sensible regulation to restrict technical entities and AI, particularly when it comes to impersonation of a well-known or semi-prominent person, for that matter, anyone.
[00:38:23]  We should all be free of this danger.
[00:38:25]  Humanity may actually be hanging in the balance.
[00:38:28]  If we don't act, well, we still have the power to restrict this before human beings are made obsolete and the machines take over.
[00:38:36]  There's nothing less at stake.
[00:38:38]  I think we're on the cusp of unleashing a dystopia worse than anything we've seen in any of the apocalyptic science fiction movies or read in any novel.
[00:38:50]  We have to get a handle on this before it runs our lives.
[00:38:54]  Here's some very good news.
[00:38:56]  Nancy Pelosi expected to retire in 2026.
[00:39:01]  She will finally throw in the towel.
[00:39:04]  How someone is worth $153 or $58 million on a $200,000 a year salary.
[00:39:13]  I wish she was my stockbroker.
[00:39:15]  She sure can pick them, can't she?
[00:39:17]  She campaigned very hard for Proposition 50, which would end the independent entity that does the congressional redistricting in California and bring it to a totally Democrat-controlled process.
[00:39:39]  It will do away with the independent registration commissions.
[00:39:41]  Democrats will then seek to jigger the census numbers to create more congressional seats in California.

=== Census Numbers Manipulation (01:45) ===

[00:39:49]  This is Gavin Newsom's master plan.
[00:39:53]  The race for her Congress, for her seat, we can already tell you that will be a far-left progressive Democrat.
[00:40:02]  Congresswoman Annapolina Luna has been a champion for legislation that would prevent all members of Congress from trading stocks and bonds.
[00:40:11]  I think that is a necessary reform.
[00:40:14]  Otherwise, the insider information that's being used by my own congressman, for example, is incredible.
[00:40:21]  These are huge, huge numbers.
[00:40:24]  This is Roger Stone.
[00:40:26]  You've been listening to The Stone Zone.
