Millstone Report w Paul Harrell: Clinton State Department Met w/ Religious Orgs—Which Ones?
| Copy link to current segment

Time Text
All right, happy Friday, everybody.
Welcome to the show.
This is the Millstone Report.
My name is Paul Harrell, and as always, we can't do the program without you watching or listening every single day.
I want to remind everybody this portion of the program brought to you by Red Vive Health.
That's redvivehealth.org/slash Paul for the 15% discount on clinical strength red-like panels that can change your health, that can get you healthy.
And it's stuff that the medical industrial complex does not want you to know about.
We'll tell you more about the healing power of Red Light a little later in the program.
Man, there's a lot of stuff going on right now.
Donald Trump naming some names on the White House lawn concerning these questions about Jeffrey Epstein.
We will cover that.
We have that for you.
Also have some very interesting moments with President Trump and the head of the Federal Reserve, Jerome Powell.
Some people comparing it to a scene from the office.
Absolutely just fascinating what's going on.
The body language in those clips will have that for you as well.
But I wanted to start today by asking the question about page 17 of the House Intelligence Committee report.
We've already covered page 17.
We've covered the part where it's clear that the Russians had way more dirt on Hillary Clinton that they chose not to use than they had on Donald Trump.
And we're going to go over that.
But the thing that stands out to me, and I've already talked about this a little bit, but you'll know it is very much my pet peeve, is that the part on page 17 where it talks about how the Clinton State Department essentially was promising bribes to some religious organizations if they would support Hillary Clinton.
It says different religious organizations.
And I want to know who those religious organizations are.
I think, and I'm hoping that we're going to find out.
I think Megan Basham's book, Shepherds for Sale, where she lists not only pastors, but also organizations that had become sympathetic to leftist causes, leftist narratives, leftist political goals, which were all based on false presuppositions, if not out-and-out lies.
I think her book is going to become.
I think Megan Basham's book is going to age very, very well.
And I think we're going to find out who these organizations were.
And I've got some headlines that kind of can give us a little bit of an indication here.
But the main reason that we need to know this in the broader Christian community or the broader evangelical community is we need these people exposed and we need to mark them and we need to avoid them going forward.
And I would imagine that many of these evangelical leaders or organizations that were taking meetings with the Clinton State Department wanting to get more money if they supported her, I have a feeling that these well, I have long suspected.
Let me put it to you this way.
If you are the deep state and you are terrified of and when I say terrified, I really mean it because I think a united Christian populace that's not told by preachers, that's not told to sit on your hands,
don't organize the six days of the week that you're not in worship, to accept the regime rhetoric where you have these Christian leaders essentially trying to sanitize whatever the most outrageous, evil, wicked thing that the left-wing government has done, trying to sanitize it to the American people.
If you don't have that, if you don't have this compromise and equivocation, which is essentially asking us to ignore That the state is calling evil things good and good things evil, and not actually do anything about it, not actually use what little political power we have.
If you're the deep state, you're afraid of a united Christian populace that is organized and is not afraid of political power.
If you're the deep state and that's your fear, that it would make sense to have intelligence assets, if not people that claim to be religious leaders that are actually liars and secretly aligned with the Intel oligarchy, aligned with the deep state.
It would also make perfect sense to infiltrate seminaries.
As a matter of fact, that's probably where I would start day one if I were the deep state.
I would go after the one thing that historically tyrannical governments can't overcome.
And again, that is that those are Christians who know what they believe and are willing to speak truth to power.
Very much the way John the Baptist spoke about, you know, the king's wife.
So all that to say, I want to know who the religious organizations were that the Clinton State Department was meeting with that we found out because of, you know, on page 17 of this incredible House Intelligence Committee report.
Let's go ahead and let's look at it here, shall we?
Now, you guys can't read this.
I don't think it's, this is as far as the Zoom is going to go today.
We might be able to get it just like a hair closer.
No, see how it just messes up.
So this is what we got.
All right.
So this is what it says.
As of September, we're going to start at the top of the page.
As of September 2016, the Russian Foreign Intelligence Service had Democratic National Committee information that President Obama and party leaders found the state of Secretary Clinton's health to be extraordinarily alarming.
It felt that it could have serious negative impact on her election prospects.
Her health information was being kept in strictest secrecy, and even close advisors were not being fully informed.
The Russian intelligence agency possessed DNC communications that Clinton was suffering from intensified psycho-emotional problems, including uncontrolled fits of anger, aggression, and cheerfulness.
Clinton was placed on a daily regimen of heavy tranquilizers, and while afraid of losing, she remained obsessed with a thirst for power.
Now, on my afternoon program, The Paul Harrell Show, which airs Monday through Thursday on X American News, I talked about how that sounds like somebody who could be possessed by a demon.
Uncontrollable cheerfulness, as well as fits of anger and rage, and being obsessed with having a thirst for power is odd to say the least.
It does just make me think something spiritually was going on behind the scenes.
The Russian intelligence agency also had information that Clinton suffered from type 2 diabetes, ischemic heart disease, deep vein thrombosis, and chronic obstruction, pulmonary disease.
The Russians also had information, a campaign email discussing a plan approved by Secretary Clinton to link Putin and Russian hackers to candidate Trump in order to distract the American public from Clinton's email server scandal.
Obviously, we knew that.
It was playing out in real time.
Then when she lost, Obama took the narrative that Clinton started and manufactured intelligence to that end.
The Russian Federal Security Service in August had details of secret meetings with multiple named U.S. religious organizations in which U.S. State Department representatives offered, in exchange for supporting Secretary Clinton, significant increases in financing from department funds and the patronage of state in dealing with past Soviet countries.
FBI Director James Comey testified.
So let's just stop right there.
They are named religious organizations, and we need to get to the bottom of who they were.
Now, if you go over back to Time magazine, we have this report about Clinton wooing Catholic and evangelical leaders with global development.
Now, notice on page 17 again, they specifically talked about the patrons of state and dealing with past Soviet countries.
Ha, past Soviet countries.
And then Hillary Clinton woos Catholic and evangelical leaders with global development.
Fascinating that the first thing Donald Trump did, one of the first things he did, was destroy USAID.
Huh.
There's also people making the connection between USAID money going away and Stephen Colbert's show being canceled.
Now we have the news that The View is going on hiatus.
The mainstream media tells us that the ladies at The View had this pre-planned.
It's always been planned in the summer that they're going to go on hiatus.
But now there are people saying that maybe they won't come back.
There's now protests against Volodymyr Zelensky in Ukraine by the people.
People are saying that that's happening now because USAID funding has stopped.
But let's get back to this, shall we?
This is Time magazine.
Do we have a date on this?
This is in 2016.
I don't see August 2nd of 2016.
Hillary Clinton campaign representatives and supporters have held two private meetings with top Catholic and evangelical leaders in Washington to discuss the global development policies of a potential Clinton administration.
Several of Clinton's former State Department advisors organized the meetings via their foreign policy volunteer group, Idealists for Hillary, which in working to activate supporters in global development networks, Cindy Huang, a former advisor for the state's Global Hunger and Food Security Initiative, helped to convene the closed-door sessions, each for about a dozen religious leaders.
Participants describe the gatherings to time as opportunities to share their policy priorities and organizational needs with Clinton advisors.
Unlike private meetings Trump has held to raise political support among the religious rights power brokers where social conservative leaders have tried to ease their anxiety over Trump's positions from abortion to immigration.
These meetings were listening sessions focused on the policy priorities on topics like refugees, poverty reduction, and international assistance.
The goal of both meetings has been to A, learn about the priorities of people of faith engaged in humanitarian work, B, work with supportive leaders to help them and their communities involved in our field organizing efforts in Virginia and elsewhere, a Clinton campaign spokesman says.
So what all this sounds like to me is these evangelical and Catholic organizations are either willingly participating as intelligence assets or they are pawns in basically the Intel oligarchy.
I think that's what we're going to find here.
And this is going to be scandalous.
Now, which names are here?
Okay, so let's look here.
The group first organized a meeting with Catholic humanitarian leaders and Clinton policy advisors on June 23rd.
A representative from the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops attended.
Quote, we are open to meeting with both parties around development issues, he explains.
And he says the event was less about politicking in the election than about including religious voices, policies, perspectives for Clinton's transition team.
Now, we do not know if this meeting that is being reported here in 2016 on Time magazine is the same meeting or meetings talked about in this House Intel report.
Again, the Russian Federal Security Service in August had details of secret meetings.
So this Time magazine is talking about a private meeting, but not secret meetings.
Secret meetings is what this says, with multiple named U.S. religious organizations in which U.S. State Department representatives offered, in exchange for supporting Secretary Clinton, significant increases in financing.
A bribe, essentially.
We have potentially Catholic or evangelical leaders, according to this, taking bribes in order to support Hillary Clinton and also figure out a way to do the mental gymnastics to get their parishioners to support and go vote for Hillary Clinton.
I'm with her.
Remember that?
I'm with her as long as she bribes and she pays me.
Back to this Time magazine article.
Organizers held a similar meeting for evangelical and mainline Protestant leaders in Washington on July 19th during the Republican National Convention.
Helene Gale, CEO of McKinsey Social Initiative and a former president of CARE USA, served as the main listener.
Deborah Fikes, former permanent representative to the United Nations for the World Evangelical Alliance, who has endorsed Clinton, attended.
It truly was a listening session that offered substantive discussions with our feedback from faith organizations in the Middle East, with people on the ground working in some of the most critical locations with refugees and IDPs, Fike says.
I was encouraged that senior advisors to Hillary Clinton really understand the importance of the world that faith groups do in all aspects of American foreign policy and value and respect our advices.
Again, all of this is really looking like, to me, a massive Intel operation and a massive Intel ring disguised as Christianity, which is, what's the term?
Is it Megan Basham?
Many people have used whitewashed tombs is what I think I've heard recently this week talking about all kinds of different issues.
Steve Rose, co-founder of Walter, is basic in South Sudan with Bishop Elias Tabon, also attended.
Tabon is close to Clinton.
She visited him in South Sudan in 2012, and the Clinton Global Initiative awarded him a top prize in 2013.
So we need to know everything about this, folks.
As Christians, we need to know which organizations, who it was.
And I'm just what I'll say next is I think the National Association of Evangelicals is going to be an interesting organization to look into in the future.
And that's all I'll say about that.
The National Association of Evangelicals.
Again, it makes perfect sense.
I mean, if you really think about it, if you are afraid of Christians engaging in politics, then you would try your best to convert them.
You would try your best to compromise them.
You would infiltrate seminaries.
You look at somebody like a Russell Moore, for example, and you just think, huh, you can go back and you listen to sermons of Russell Moore 20 years ago.
You say, all right.
It's for the most part a sound sermon.
How does Russell Moore go from that to where he is now as the editor of Christianity Today, the former head of the Ethics and Religious Liberty Commission, which has now become this woke organization, the Southern Baptist chief lobbying arm on D.C. is under an incredible amount of pressure, intense pressure.
Now they're having to come out and deny that they're pushing for amnesty.
We've had people talk about how they're not in the fight at all.
There's been accounts about how the ERLC is not in the fight at all when it comes to issues that actually matter for Southern Baptists.
And I'm not a Southern Baptist, but the Southern Baptists that are in the pews every Sunday and have biblical beliefs.
And they expect the ERLC to represent those beliefs in D.C., and they're not.
I don't know.
You just wonder.
Russell Moore then goes from there.
He leaves Southern Baptist.
Now he's the head of Christianity Today, Which is not a Christian publication, not a biblical publication in many respects.
What was it?
Was it Christianity Today that ran an article during right before Easter this last year arguing that Jesus wasn't actually nailed to a cross when there's like literal biblical evidence?
Look at my hands, Thomas.
That's Christianity Today.
So, I mean, I think at some point we just have to ask the tough questions.
And look, we got to go on our intuition.
There's been several of Russell Moore, let's just talk about Russell Moore just one more second.
Several of Russell Moore's ex-posts, you know, anytime he posts something or he's referenced, and I don't know, he may have turned off comments now to where you can't comment, but I know for the longest time, anytime he posted, my question to him was, do you now or have you ever worked for intelligence services or intelligence agencies?
Because I think that's the question.
As I look at his trek and I look at his path, that's just a question I have.
Because if you look at somebody like Russell Moore, it really just is kind of indistinguishable from a politician.
Indistinguishable from a typical American politician that is sent on a mission from voters or people that believe in him and then come back with excuses as to why the agenda can't really be done anymore.
And there's a lot of reasons.
Americans have been wondering for decades, why does this happen so consistently?
*cough*
Anyway, you guys feel free.
Sign up for the comments.
Let me know what you think about this.
Now, let's get to Congressman Rick Crawford.
Full disclosure, Congressman Rick Crawford is my congressman.
That's right.
He represents the Arkansas 1st Congressional District, and that is where I live.
As a matter of fact, I have had the most surreal experience over the last 24 hours because it dawned on me.
I cannot believe this.
So just full disclosure.
So when I first started, I was in talk radio.
I started my show in 2009, and one of my first interviews was Rick Crawford.
He came to the studio, and I was as green as green could be, and we were talking about politics.
But at the time, the incumbent congressman was a Democrat, guy by the name of Marion Berry.
And so this was a big deal where Northeast Arkansas, the first congressional district, was about to go red for the first time since Reconstruction.
And it was, you know, it was the Tea Party movement, all that was in full swing.
The state legislature changed dramatically.
It was just a huge deal.
And it dawned on me the other day, like, wow, I played a small part in getting Rick Crawford elected.
You know, obviously I was telling everybody as a talk radio host to vote for Republicans.
Obama was in office.
You know, the country was a disaster.
And now he is the chairman of the Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence.
And now he is a part of helping expose arguably the biggest scandal in American history.
It just kind of dawned on me last night.
I was sitting there and I was like, man, that's wild.
It is absolutely nuts.
So Maria Bartiromo interviewed Congressman Rick Crawford, who doesn't do a lot of interviews.
And keep in mind that the chair of the House Intel Committee gets the same presidential briefing or gets the same briefings on Intel that the president does, right?
I believe Crawford is now part of the Gang of Eight as well.
So doesn't do a lot of interviews, but he did sat down with Maria Bartiromo, and this is what it sounded like.
I want you to hear from him.
Evidence after Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard reported that Obama should be criminally investigated.
Joining me now is Arkansas Congressman Rick Crawford.
He is the chairman of the House Intelligence Committee today.
Mr. Chairman, good to have you this morning.
Thanks very much for being here.
Look, Devin Nunez was the chairman of the committee back in the day when this probe started.
Adam Schiff became the chairman of the committee after the Democrats won in the next election.
And your thoughts on what they both saw.
They were both saying completely opposite things about the Russia collusion probe.
Your reaction.
Yeah, and I was on the committee the entire time.
So Devin Nunes launched the investigation in 2017.
That was my even upset, baptism by fire.
Welcome to Hip C. And so I got the chance to observe this up close and personal and the differences between Devin's perspective and Adam Schiff.
So Devin was forthright in initiating this investigation.
He didn't even lead the investigation.
He put that under the direction of Representative Mike Conaway to lead the Russia hoax investigation.
In contrast, Adam Schiff would pontificate in hearings.
He would walk out of a hearing, go outside the SCIF to a media gaggle, lie and leak in real time, and then go back and rejoin the hearing.
This went on throughout my tenure when Adam Schiff was ranking member and chair.
He is a prolific liar.
He would do this in real time.
He would leak information, and then he would say that he had information, Russian evidence of Russia collusion.
He still has never presented any evidence to that effect.
And our report reflects that.
Yeah.
And it's very dangerous because when you're carrying around this incredible title of chairman of the intelligence committee, like you are, obviously, today, and like Adam Schiff was at that time, people believe that you may be seeing something that we're not seeing.
So for him to go out on all these Sunday morning programs and these political Shows and say there's collusion in plain sight suggested that he saw something that we did not see.
But what you're telling us, and what I was told at the time is exactly what you just said: that he was in meetings, closed-door meetings with you and your colleagues.
It was clear that during those meetings, there was no evidence of any collusion.
You didn't have any evidence because there was no evidence because there was no collusion.
And then he would walk out of that meeting, go right into a press gaggle, and say, there's collusion in plain sight.
Yeah, you know what?
There was collusion in plain sight.
It was between the Democrats, the legacy media, and other players.
And they were selling this bill of goods to the American people.
And in effect, what they did was perpetrate the biggest political fraud probably in our history and have yet to correct the record.
That's what this is about today, Maria.
It's about correcting the record.
And if you take all the names off of the playlist here, take away President Trump's name and just say president.
Take away President Obama's name and just say president.
Take away individuals like, I don't know, Andy McCabe or Comey or Brennan or any of those and just insert their titles.
Nobody would put up with this.
But because of the individuals and the parties that they represent, then it's fair game to attack.
And then when it's your person that's being attacked, all bets are off.
And it's just unbelievable that they have this set of double standards.
I'm absolutely baffled that they can look at this information and distill this down to one thing.
We're going to retreat back to our Democratic corner and protect all of our people.
Hillary Clinton, for example, if you haven't seen page 17 on our report, you really need to drill down on page 17.
Some of the information that was available on her, and you're going to say that there was Russian collusion and that Vladimir Putin had a clear choice, a clear preference for President Trump.
If he did, he would have released that information and damaged then a candidate Clinton.
But instead, he expected a President Clinton.
So he held all that negative information in abeyance because he, like everybody else in the United States, with the assistance of the legacy media, were expecting to see President Clinton.
And that information would have been helpful to him on the other side of the election.
So he held on to it, which shows he did not have a preference for President Trump.
Yeah, that's unbelievable.
And, you know, you saw everything because you were on the committee, the intelligence committee.
So, Congressman, I remember that there was that meeting in the White House that President Obama led, and John Brennan was taking notes.
At the time, we showed those handwritten notes on air.
We had pictures of those handwritten notes.
When John Brennan wrote down, the Russians are aware that Hillary Clinton has cooked up this story, that Trump is colluding with Russia.
And we had those notes.
What else did you see at the time that was particularly damning that you believe implicates President Obama in all of this?
Well, the fact that he was the president of the United States and had the meeting, that in and of itself shows that he was in on it.
I mean, he essentially authorized it.
He can't escape any kind of culpability here because it happened on his watch.
So he either needs to come forward and say, no, I was never present in that meeting.
No, I never authorized any of that and let his henchmen swing, or he needs to take his licks like a man would.
And the fact of the matter, I don't expect either of those two things to happen.
It's going to come out.
We already know.
The American people were subjected to a fraud that if it were anybody else but President Trump would be entirely unacceptable.
If this had happened to, for example, to a President Biden or to a President Obama or to a President Clinton, the American people would have been outraged because it's an American president that it happened to.
But because the media helps to malign President Trump, we're going to look the other way and say, no, this is all President Trump's fault when the evidence clearly shows that it wasn't.
And it's been that way.
And we've known it for eight years.
That's almost we couldn't get the report out to the American people.
That right there is the, is to me.
Can you imagine knowing what's in this report, like what Rick Crawford does for eight years and not be it's classified as one of the most classified documents that we had.
Only five, reportedly only five copies.
And the media just continues to actively deceive people.
He knows the truth, but he can't say anything.
I mean, you ever put yourself in somebody's shoes like that, that would be absolutely so frustrating.
Frustrating doesn't even begin to describe what I would feel if that was a situation, considering like, I mean, if you're a patriotic American and your country's being driven off a cliff by a bunch of criminals and you know the truth and it's in the report, but it's classified and you can't release it because it's going to expose the criminals.
Right.
Well, you were being stonewalled on every level.
I know.
I was reporting every moment of it at the time.
But you know what also is incredible to me is that the Democrats have completely put aside what they're supposed to be doing.
And that is, you know, really stewards of this economy and this country for the American people.
At the time, while they were screaming Russia, Russia, Russia, China was eating our lunch.
And China was stealing intellectual property.
And China was violating visa rules and capitalizing on getting people into this country from China to put on surveillance.
What can you tell us about that?
Because I think that while Adam Schiff and all these other people were trying to attack their political enemy and Donald Trump, they were also ignoring serious implications for America by claiming Russia was the problem when, in fact, the much larger adversary was China at the time.
They just blew that off.
That's a great point that you bring up because we know that the Russians have been involved in election, you know, malign influence since there's been a Soviet Union.
They've been engaged in the United States, and that's a byproduct of our open society.
They use it against us.
They've been doing it for decades, and it's likely not going to change.
And they Find willing idiots like Adam Schiff to help them with that.
Meantime, China comes in the back door because we're all paying attention to this shiny object that the Democrats are waving around, and that's allowing China to get a stronger foothold.
And the other thing is that as a country, we have sort of ignored some of the most pressing issues in our own neighborhood, for example, the Western Hemisphere, and we have allowed the Chinese to gain a foothold here in our neighborhood.
And we've got to be able to walk and chew gum at the same time.
Not only does China present a threat where they are and in their region, but they are aggressive in our hemisphere, not only in the United States, but every country in our hemisphere.
And it presents, I think, an existential challenge to the United States.
Yeah, of course.
And we talk about that all the time.
We have more on that coming up, by the way.
But let me switch gears and ask you about the DOJ now suing New York City and Mayor Eric Adams over the city sanctions.
All right.
So this is what I think is going to happen.
And Tulsi Gabbard's already said this.
We're going to continue to get more information.
It may be a drip, drip, drip, or it may just be more and more documents.
But I have a feeling we're going to be getting even more information about this.
And again, I want to know specifically, as a Christian, I want to know who these religious organizations were so that Christians can mark and avoid them.
Support Hillary Clinton, and we'll give you money.
We all know what that sounds like, right?
Folks, before we go any further, I want to tell you about Red Vive Health and the life-enhancing red light panels that you can get at redvivehealth.org slash Paul.
That's redvivehealth.org slash Paul.
If you're new to the idea of red light, you've come to the right place.
Red Vive devices emit red and near-infrared light designed to reduce muscle and joint inflammation and pain, stimulate cellular energy, speed up recovery, boost skin collagen, strengthen your body, and boost your mood.
Red and near-infrared light are two wavelengths that are naturally emitted by the sun.
In targeted doses, as that's what these panels do, these waves have a healing effect on the body.
The red light is absorbed by your skin, leading to enhanced skin health and collagen production and anti-aging.
Near-infrared light penetrates deeper into the body, reaching your bones, your muscles, your tissues, and even your organs.
You can experience scientifically proven, scientifically proven anti-aging benefits and improve skin health, reduce wrinkles, color patches, hyperpigmentation, and skin discoloration.
We've got research that even shows this stuff can help fight addiction.
It can help fight anxiety.
It's absolutely incredible what this technology can do.
Big Pharma doesn't want you to know about this.
Now, right now, I want to tell you about a veteran's discount.
Now, you can get the 15% off for people who are not veterans, you can get 15% off by going to redvivehealth.org slash Paul.
Or you can call the number on your screen and just mention my name, Paul.
But if you are a veteran or if you have a veteran in your immediate household, I want you to call RedVive, 866-726-8483.
And I want you to mention my name, Paul, to get the 15% discount.
And then tell them that you're a veteran.
And you'll have to answer some questions to prove that you are or you have one in your household.
And you will get an extra 5% off for a total savings of 20%.
And the reason I want to urge you guys to do this right now is because we have a situation where I've been told that the prices on these red light panels are going to increase.
They're supposed to increase by the end of this week, and now is the end of the week.
So I want you to go now, redvivehealth.org slash Paul.
You can call for the extra discount, the VA discount.
And so if you're a veteran, you're just going to want to call, give them my name, Paul, and then talk about being a veteran.
And for the rest of you, just go right now because the prices are going to increase.
And so you want to lock them in where they are right now.
Redvivehealth.org slash Paul.
That's redvivehealth.org slash Paul.
We're going to just take a quick break, refresh here.
We're going to hear from our good friend, Mike Lindell.
I hear every day about the products y'all wish my pillow carried.
Well, guess what?
We probably do.
Slippers, bathrobes, pet beds, blankets, mattresses, sleepwear, loungewear, duvets, comforters, potholders, aprons, oven mitts, and so much more.
And they're all on sale.
For example, get our best-selling standard MyPillows for only $14.98.

Six-piece bath towels or kitchen towel sets, chips, $29.98.
Multi-use MyPillow 2.0s with pillowcase, $9.98.

And I've never done this before.
When you spend $100 or more, you're going to get two standard MyPillows absolutely free.
All right, so remember the promo code PH right there.
PH.
Make sure you do that.
Love the slippers.
Love the pillows, obviously.
The sheets are fantastic, but my favorite are the bath towels.
I've decided.
They're all great products, but the bath towels are good.
Now, in the wintertime, I have the house shoes, and you've got the slip-ons, and then you've got, it's not fall or winter yet, so I'm not really wearing the house shoes as much.
But they do have sandals now, so check those out as well.
Just remember to use the promo code PH so you get a discount and as well help this program to stay on the air.
So one of the things that we were talking about with this House Intel report is obviously we heard from Congressman Rick Crawford on Maria Bartiromo's show, but then you also have John Solomon from Justin News interviewing Devin Noonan.
Of course, Devin Noonan is no longer a congressman.
Now he's affiliated with Trump's Truth Social.
But I really just find it interesting because I actually got to interview Devin Nunes back in 2018, 2017, 2018, somewhere in there.
And this is a guy who had, you know, he was the chair, and he had a front row seat.
And I think specifically in this specific interview with John Solomon, at some point they talk about the Mar-a-Lago raid and the real reason why, what were they looking at at Mar-a-Lago.
Just the news has that up now.
Let me see if you can merge here.
But anyway, I've got this pulled up.
So Defined Unes sat down with John Solomon, and we're just going to listen to a little bit of this.
Yeah, it's in person in Washington.
Yeah, we love it.
All right.
It's worse than I ever thought.
I think that may be the headline.
Jim Jordan said that the other day.
When I read the report that you authored with Derek and Cash and others, it's devastating to realize that they put out an intelligence product with not an ounce of evidence to back up its television.
Well, and for you to say that, John, of all people, you were one of the few reporters who were actually trying to get the story right back in 2017.
And yeah, I think that's exactly right.
There's a reason why they hid this report from the American public for so long.
And it forced me to say things like, well, wouldn't it be common sense that Putin would not care about Trump?
Because nobody thought Trump was going to win at the time back in 2016.
So, well, when I say no one, I don't mean for the great people that voted for President Trump, but I mean for the swamp creatures, all the world leaders around the world, including Putin.
And that's what the evidence showed.
I mean, our team went through there, you know, painstakingly for nearly two years to go through.
And we said, give us every single bit of evidence that you have.
And if you go and read the report, there's no evidence about Donald Trump colluding with Russians.
There's some interesting stuff on other people.
And Putin figured that Hillary Clinton was going to win, which is what everybody knew.
So now the question is, where do we go from here?
So Comey's decision to use the steel dossier, even in the face of folks who were saying, eh, this is shaky at best, shouldn't there have been more checkpoints along the way?
Or am I, maybe I'm misreading the situation.
Maybe Comey just has the unilateral power to do that.
But it seems like there would have been people in his sphere who would have discouraged it.
Well, Comey's a complicated figure,'cause you remember that he took it upon himself to absolve Hillary Clinton in July, which of course, then Hillary Clinton was blaming Comey for all the problems that she was having.
You know, so then, I don't know if Comey just felt like he needed to vindicate himself, take the law into his own hands, which he then did because he was one of, you know.
This guy is the biggest narcissist, I think, ever and a compulsive liar.
And James Comey is obsessed with his Boy Scout image, a reputation that he, obviously it's no longer a Boy Scout image now, but it's a reputation he worked hard to build as a liar, essentially.
This Boy Scout image started as the result of a dispute between then Attorney General Alberto Gonzalez and the Bush administration.
Oh, I'm sorry, no, it would have been John Ashcroft was the Attorney General.
Alberto Gonzalez was then working at the White House before he was Attorney General, and John Ashcroft was allegedly on his deathbed, and James Comey testified to Chuck Schumer that they were trying to sign off on the Patriot Act again or some surveillance power.
Anyway, it was a whole thing.
It was a whole thing, and it's all in hindsight a giant joke.
And it was this effort to concoct this idea that James Comey was a man of integrity and above the fray.
And we now know that is not true.
We know that James Comey is a liar.
We know that James Comey set up General Flynn and is on the record now bragging about it.
We know that they set up Russia.
Even when George Snuffalupikis asks Comey after he was fired about debriefing President Trump or briefing President Trump over the PP dossier, Snuffalupikis, to his credit, says, did you tell him that the dossier was paid for by his political opposition, Hillary Clinton?
And Comey says, no.
Snuffalupikis then says, well, do you think that you think he should have known that?
Like maybe he was entitled to know that?
And Comey's like, I don't know the answer to that question.
It's like, what a slime ball.
What an absolute skeez.
A little bit more from this.
We don't know if it was just him or others, but for sure he was involved in making sure that that dossier ended up being presented inside of that report.
I think the bigger issue now is just some dates that are critically important.
So roughly around Thanksgiving after the election, the House Intelligence Committee Republicans got briefed by the FBI and other intelligence agencies that nothing had happened.
By the way, it happens to match the intelligence that was in the report that we just finally just put out by Director of National Intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard, that Chairman Crawford from the House Intelligence Committee pushed out, which was the report that we had done.
But it showed that that was the intelligence at the time.
We spent two years combing through it.
Well, also around Thanksgiving.
And this dates important of 2016, that's what we were told by the FBI, by the IC.
And then we now know, because of what Director Gabber was able to find, which I think was a critically important piece of information that should have been given to the House Intelligence Committee back when we had subpoenaed it, is that the presidential daily brief on or about December 8th, so Thanksgiving to December 8th, you've got a couple weeks in there, that PDB said exactly what we were told and What we found in our report.
Yep.
And what the intelligence committee agreed all the way back to September, right?
They had the same theme from September forward, right?
That's exactly right.
And so then December 9th, something changes.
And I think that's where the investigation needs to be picked up.
And the people who politicize it.
It's just incredible.
They've known the whole time.
Wait, we were told at Thanksgiving that the Russians didn't do anything.
And then they've known the whole time it's just taking this long to get it out.
We've all known, but I mean, sitting president of the United States orders a fake intelligence, the manufacturing of fake intelligence to frame the incoming president for treason.
This is why it is treason.
Obama created a fake intel report to frame Donald Trump for treason.
And none of this will matter unless people go to jail.
None of it matters unless people go to jail.
If the Democrats get back in power and nothing, nobody has gone to jail, they have no incentive to not use the government against their political opponents.
We cannot miss the time, this is more important than ever.
If we're going to have a country, if we're going to have a nation, somebody's got to go to jail.
And it needs to be more than one person.
Obama may very well have immunity.
I don't know.
But if Obama has immunity, Donald Trump should pardon him to forever tarnish his legacy.
That would be hilarious.
But at the same time, it might be better to do to Obama what was done to so many J Sixers.
You may beat the charges, but you won't beat the ride.
It might be better that he go through everything that so many other Americans have gone through.
We either have equal justice under law or we have two-tier justice.
But Comey, Clapper, Brennan.
Here's the question.
Can you go to jail for leaking classified intelligence to the media if the intelligence that was classified was made up?
That's pretty funny.
Seriously, so if Comey is leaking, let's just use Comey for an example.
If Comey is leaking classified intelligence to the press, but the classified intel was totally fake and made up, I wonder if a defense attorney would argue that.
Yeah, I mean, it was classified, but it wasn't real.
So he really, you know, technically didn't release anything classified that was legitimate.
Never actually thought about that.
All right, and then one more on this.
Tulsi Gabbard says that it took her a lot of time and there were obstacles within the intelligence oligarchy to actually get this information out.
Shortly after coming into this position as director of national intelligence, I formed a special team to investigate this issue.
I got to tell you, it wasn't easy.
There were a lot of deep state obstacles that exist still within the intelligence community.
But ultimately, we had a whistleblower who came forward that brought some critical pieces to this story.
And we were able to discover these documents and find these documents that really pointed to President Obama directing his national security leaders in James Clapper and John Brennan to manufacture this January 2017 intelligence community assessment.
The investigation that I led at ODNI that we released last week, Friday, provided a lot of those foundational building blocks and proof for what we know happened.
The report that we released today, the House Intelligence Committee Oversight Majority Staff report that investigated that January 2017 assessment that President Obama had manufactured with fake intelligence in order to achieve knowingly using false intelligence in order to get to the conclusion that he wanted to promote to the American people that Putin had acted in favor of President Trump winning that election in 2016.
And it's incredible.
You know, no one, I really haven't heard really anyone talk about how irresponsible it is to frame another government for interfering in your election when they have nuclear weapons.
Have you ever think about that?
Like if you're if you're if you're Russia, if you're Vladimir Putin here and you literally had nothing to do with what they have said that you did and you did not sway the election, you did not favor one candidate, and yet they've built this entire narrative that has gone to foment this 1980s fear of the Soviet Union.
And Barack Obama himself told Mitt Romney the 1980s called they want their foreign policy back when Romney was like, Russia, Russia, Russia.
And then Obama creates the fake narrative that Russia is the big boogeyman.
And then in large part to this bogus narrative that half the country still believes that Vladimir Putin is the reason Donald Trump was elected, that is then used, partially used, that mentality that either consciously or subconsciously to send hundreds of thousands of Ukrainian young men to their deaths.
That's evil.
It's very, very evil.
Donald Trump met with Jerome Powell yesterday.
It was like something out of the office.
As a real estate developer, what would you do with a project manager who would be over budget?
Generally speaking, what would I do?
I'd fire him.
And then we had this one.
So we're taking a look.
And it looks like it's about $3.1 billion.
It went up a little bit or a lot.
So the $2.7 billion is now $3.1 billion.
I'm not aware of that.
Yeah, it just came out.
Yeah, I haven't heard that from anybody in the Fed.
Yeah, it just came out.
I'm going to go to the next video.
Argno said it about 3.1 as well.
3.1, 3.2.
This came from us?
Yes.
I don't know who does that.
You're including the Martin renovation.
You just added in the third building, is what that is.
That's a third building.
It's a building that's being built.
It was built five years ago.
We finished Martin five years ago.
It's part of the overall new.
So we're going to take a look.
So we're taking a look at the public.
This public shaming spectacle is pretty hilarious.
There's no way, there's no ifs, ands, or buts about it.
Here's more of this meeting.
I think we hear the president lesson with the chairman, as you know.
Chairman, come on over.
just taking a look at what's happening.
It's a tough construction job, building basements where So whatever's going on in the mind of the small guy on the right, this is the obstacle.
Trump is basically humiliating this guy in public.
They didn't exist or expanding them and a lot of very expensive work.
There's no question about it.
And Tim has been with me for a long time, and you're in charge of the committee.
Indeed, one of the reasons why I wanted to see it was the overruns of the expenses wanted to figure out why.
Yeah.
So we're taking a look, and it looks like it's about 3.1 billion.
It went up a little bit, or a lot.
So the 2.7 is now 3.1.
He shakes his head.
It looks up at him.
It just came out.
That's a third building or something.
It's part of the overall work.
So we're going to take a look.
We're going to see what's happening.
And it's got a long way.
Do you expect any more additional cross-sell runs?
Don't expect them.
We're ready for them.
But we have a little bit of a reserve that we may use, but no, we don't.
Expect to be finished in 2027.
We're well along, as you can see.
The Federal Reserve has a little bit of reserve that they may use.
Nice to take these off every once in a while when we're not under too much danger.
So any questions?
Mr. President, as a real estate developer, what would you do with a project manager who would be over budget?
Generally speaking, what would I do?
I'd fire him.
Do you think he was the president usually co-ops to do that?
Well, I'm here just really with the chairman.
He's showing us around, showing us the work.
And so I don't want to get that.
I don't want to be personal.
I just would like to see it get finished.
And in many ways, it's too bad it started.
But it did start.
And it's been under construction for a long time.
It's going to be a real long time because it looks like it's got a long way to go.
Yes, sir.
Mr. President, are there things the chairman can say to you today that would make you back off some of the earlier criticism?
Well, I'd love him to lower interest rates.
Other than that, what can I tell you?
The country is doing really well.
just brief the chairman of the deal we made with japan japan is putting up 550 Does Jerome Powell go or does Jerome Powell stay?
That is the question.
And then last this afternoon, what do we have?
All right, so the media is obsessed with Epstein, Epstein, Epstein, Epstein.
Now, obviously, I'm still disappointed with how everything played out.
I don't want to see the Epstein files.
I don't like how Pam Bonnie handled it and all this other.
We're going to have to rehash all that, but just so you guys know.
So now the left, though, is they're saying, oh, you know, it's Trump.
There's a cover-up of Trump, Trump, Trump.
They're talking about the Epstein thing nonstop, that Wall Street Journal posting this bogus letter in the Wall Street Journal now saying, hey, Trump was told he's in the files.
So Trump is now getting questions.
Trump's very good at talking to the media, so now the media is peppering him with questions on Epstein.
And this is what he said.
Well, I don't want to talk about that.
What I do want to say is that Todd is a great attorney, but you ought to be speaking about Larry Summers.
You ought to be speaking about some of his friends that are hedge fund guys.
They're all over the place.
You ought to be speaking about Bill Clinton, who went to the island 28 times.
I never went to the island.
You maintain you did not write a letter from Jeffrey F.P. I don't even know what they're talking about.
Now, somebody could have written a letter and used my name, but that's happened a lot.
All you have to do is take a look at the dossier, the fake dossier.
Everything's fake with that administration.
Everything's fake with the Democrats.
Take a look at what they just found about the dossier.
Everything is fake.
There are a bunch of sick people.
Where did you see the people laying outside?
But, you know, you should focus on Clinton.
You should focus on the president of Harvard, the former president of Harvard.
You should focus on some of the hedge fund guys.
I'll give you a list.
These guys lived with Jeffrey Epstein.
I sure as hell didn't.
Thank you very much.
Mr. Franklin is not even right away.
He calls out Larry Summers, calls out a former president of Harvard.
He calls out hedge fund managers, and he says, I will give you a list.
I'll give you a list.
So now Trump's going to give us the list, is what we're being told.
This story gets wilder and wilder and wilder.
And, you know, you could say that maybe that was just an aside comment, but he said it.
And so now people are going to be asking him now, hey, Donald Trump, President Trump, will you give us a list?
Will you give us a list of names?
You can't make this stuff up, folks.
All right, so now is the time of the program where I urge everybody out there who can hear me to go to church.
Sunday is a couple of days away.
And if you don't go to church, I just want to encourage you to find a church that preaches about the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ and his mighty ability to save sinners.
So do that.
For those of you that go to church, I just want to say, I hope you have a blessed Lord's Day.
I hope you have a restful Lord's Day.
I hope you have a fantastic weekend.
And unless I'm providentially hindered, I'm going to see you back here tomorrow or Monday delivering you the news at 12 o'clock Central on X America News and 4 o'clock Central on X America News for the Paul Hurrell Program and my co-host Rob Spencer.
God bless everybody out there watching.
