	It's even worse than I thought.
	Federal air marshals are sounding the alarm, claiming the Biden administration is forcing them to spy on and track Americans for political reasons, including people involved with January 6th as domestic terrorists.
	Even worse, marshals may be coordinating with China.
	Joining me now is the Air Marshal National Council Executive Director Sonia Labasco.
	Sonia, thanks for your time.
	I spoke to you on my radio show this week, and I have to tell you, you really...
	It was shocking, some of the information you got out there.
	Are air marshals being used to spy on Americans for political reasons?
	Yes, they are, Dan.
	It's unfortunate that we have to report that, but we've been trying to get the agency to stop this for the last two years, since January the 11th, 2021.
	This has been occurring, and we just need some help from the American people to say this is wrong and unconstitutional, and it needs to stop.
	Now, I'm not going to get too far into the interview.
	Hold on.
	I want to press pause.
	I'm not going to get too far into the interview, people.
	Because I have.
	We have Sonia Labosco on right now.
	And my goodness, let me just take the screen out here.
	I'm going to close this down.
	My goodness.
	Wait, no, Sonia, I don't want to have you in here.
	It's supposed to be solo.
	Sorry, I'm getting used to Rumble, people.
	I've got to figure out a way to have...
	I'm taking notes as to what improvements Rumble is going to have to make because thus far, I've noticed something else different.
	That I cannot have, if there's a guest in the backdrop, it doesn't seem, and it's probably me being a boomer, I can't have only the share screen video without having the guest be in the bottom instead of me.
	So, good afternoon, East Coast, good morning, what's left of it, West Coast, and good evening, whoever's watching from overseas.
	So, we have on Sonia Labasco today, and it's going to be...
	Incredibly insightful.
	I don't know who tipped me off to this originally where they said, dude, you got to cover the woman who's talking about a nine-month-old that found his way or her way.
	I don't know what sex the kid is.
	I think it's a boy.
	Who found his way onto the terror watch list.
	And I was like, oh, okay, fine.
	I get in touch with Sonia Labosco.
	I say, can you send me some stuff so I can do my homework?
	She sends me some stuff.
	I was like, oh, crap.
	I know exactly where this is going.
	It's nuts.
	What I love is that long format, long discussion.
	I'm going to get more than a three to five minute hit or a three to five minute piece on Fox News because I got questions like, oh, we're starting from the beginning.
	We're starting from the beginning, but let's start from the very, very beginning.
	We should be live on Rumble.
	Let me go check.
	Looking good.
	We're live on Rumble.
	We should be live on Locals, vivabarneslaw.locals.com.
	I've got questions coming from them that we're going to ask.
	We're live on vivabarneslaw.locals.com.
	We are live on YouTube.
	Let me see.
	We should be live on Twitter, formerly known as X. I'm sorry, it's X. Formerly Twitter, known as X, whatever.
	We are live across the interwebs, people.
	And I don't want to waste too much time because I only have Sonia until, let's say, 2 o 'clock max, but we're going to get through all this before then.
	So, what happens is, I'm not going to kill this stream on YouTube.
	And the other platforms until after the interview, because it's going to be a relatively shorter interview.
	We are going to go to Rumble afterwards and then to Locals after that to talk about some other news.
	Ordinarily, I told Sonia before we got started, I'd end with her, we'd talk and say, I'm going to stay live afterwards.
	So when Sonia checks out, we're going to go to the other platforms and on Commitube and go over to Rumble and then Locals.
	And that should be it.
	From now, let's see here.
	We got Natalie McClendon in the house.
	And I can pull up all of the comments from YouTube.
	And Rumble says, Dogdigger says, we're on refresh.
	Hit refresh.
	The video should be live on Rumble right now.
	And I'm sure it is.
	And I'm going to unpin this comment.
	Okay.
	With that said, everybody, I'm Viva Frye.
	If you don't know who I am, Viva Frye, former Montreal litigator turned current Florida rumbler.
	David Frye is my real name.
	People out there think that they're like pulling an own on me.
	Like, it's not Viva.
	It's David Frye.
	Go find...
	Dudes, I ran for federal office in Canada.
	I don't hide my real name.
	I actually love my real name.
	Freiheit is German for freedom.
	Okay, that's it.
	Intro done.
	Sonia, I'm bringing you in now.
	And one of these days, and it's going to be today, I'm going to figure out how to change the names in here.
	I don't know if you do it on your end, but we'll get clear on that.
	We're going to tinker with some things on Rumble Studio.
	But setting all that aside, thank you for coming on.
	We're going down a rabbit hole here that might leave people genuinely terrified.
	But at the very least, they'll know what to do in order to raise awareness and advocacy.
	But before we even get started, 30,000-foot overview.
	Who are you?
	Well, David, thank you so much for having me and hosting the Air Marshal National Council.
	I am a retired Supervisory Federal Air Marshal that was based out of the Orlando field office.
	I joined the Federal Air Marshal Service shortly after 9-11.
	You know, we all know what happened that fateful day when 2,977 people were murdered.
	I actually witnessed that as well when I was coming home from a midnight shift as the Daytona Beach police officer turned on the TV that morning before I went to get some shut-eye and saw that, you know, four planes were taken in a matter of seconds.
	And I raised my hand to join the team to fly undercover on aircraft after that to ensure that we could throw out another 9-11.
	So, in short, I'm a patriot.
	I'm someone that believes in protecting others.
	I've always been called to service, and it's unfortunate now that the Air Marshal's mission, as we knew it, is not alive and well anymore.
	As we knew it after 9-11, we were looking for terrorists.
	We were looking for hijackers.
	We were looking for people that wanted to do harm to our country.
	But as we're going to talk about today in your podcast, our mission has sorely been changed into nothing but a political witch hunt.
	I told you beforehand, I'm not going to delve too much into childhood because we only have so much time.
	Professional experience pre-9 /11.
	So what was your professional training?
	What did you do before 9 /11?
	And then I got many, many more questions after 9 /11.
	Okay, prior to 9 /11, I was a police officer in Daytona Beach.
	I was a midnight shift sergeant, and I worked on the manual patrol for five years.
	So a lot of experience in crowd control, a lot of experience with...
	We're hosting individuals that come to Daytona.
	You know, we have race week, bike week, spring break, you name it.
	We're a plethora of people from all over the world that want to come and visit the world's most beautiful beach.
	So a lot of law enforcement experience, a lot of firearms experience, a lot of tactical assault experience.
	I worked as a hostage negotiator for Daytona for 12 years.
	Super proud of my work there.
	I never lost a hostage of all the situations I negotiated.
	Everybody came out safely and not one shot was fired.
	So I was super proud of my law enforcement background when I came to the Air Marshals and had a lot to bring to the table to ensure that we kept our American travelers safe and that nobody ever had to experience another hijacking while we were on watch.
	Okay, that's amazing.
	I could delve into all of that pre-9-11, pre-discussion stuff.
	I could spend a couple hours on that, but we don't have that today.
	That's fascinating.
	Amazing.
	9-11 happens.
	Am I an idiot or did air marshals not exist pre-9-11?
	Well, air marshals did exist pre-9-11.
	We actually...
	Started in 1961, JFK, when there were a lot of hijackings, you know, where people were doing political, they were trying to leave the country, and they were hijacking aircraft.
	So in 1961, JFK actually established the program.
	In 1962, they had 18 volunteers that volunteered to be air marshals.
	They were called civil aviation specialists then.
	So in 1962, the first air marshals were sworn in, in then Bobby Kennedy's office.
	To fly on aircraft, but we were only deployed on international aircraft.
	So in 60s and 70s, in the 80s, it was only international missions that we were deployed on.
	What we learned about post-9-11 is the fact that, you know, the hijackers took our domestic flights.
	They took flights that were domesticated here in the United States, and they weaponized it.
	So after 9-11, our mission changed.
	So to answer that question, pre-9-11, there were 33 air marshals.
	Post 9-11, we hired thousands.
	Sorry, say that again.
	How many pre-9-11?
	33. 33 for all international flights?
	Correct.
	And an air marshal is literally an undercover cop armed, I presume, who's on a plane to ensure safety?
	Yes, we are armed.
	We dress like regular passengers.
	No one knows who we are.
	And we're stationed throughout the aircraft.
	We always travel in teams.
	We're never by ourselves.
	And we're stationed tactically throughout the aircraft.
	In case someone tries to take over that aircraft and do what they did on 9-11.
	Not to be glib or anything, but what good is 33 air marshals?
	I mean, if you go in teams of two, that's 16 planes at any given point in time that are being marshaled.
	There are, I don't know what it was back pre-9-11, but as of today, at any point, like a million people up in the air.
	What use is 16 teams of two?
	Well, at the time, you know, they flew in bigger teams of two.
	They weren't just teams of two.
	Teams of six or eight.
	So you only had maybe two teams deployed at any given time.
	When JFK started the program, there were thousands.
	They had thousands after it started in the 60s and the 70s and the 80s.
	But if you remember the hijackings to Cuba, there were a lot of hijackings for political reasons.
	But like any other program within the government, once the need dissipates, what do they do?
	They annihilate the entities so they...
	You know, downsized the air marshal program.
	Knowing well, prior to 9-11, we were blinking red for an attack on our aviation.
	So they knew very well long before 9-11 that our aviation was a threat.
	And they chose not to pump our workforce up.
	Of course, they waited until a tragedy happened.
	And then they want to run in and try to save the day after something bad has occurred.
	Not to point the fingers, but as of what year, what administration, was it that the air marshal service started getting underfunded or defunded?
	Okay, that was in the late 80s and the early 90s.
	Of course, they said, well, we haven't had an attack.
	We haven't had a hijacking.
	And they said, let's just quietly move these resources over to other federal law enforcement entities.
	And they slowly but surely did that.
	Okay, I mean, that strikes me as being mildly idiotic, where the absence of incidents is an indication of the success of the program.
	Kind of like, well, you know, you're taking antibiotics and the infection's gone away, so let's stop taking the antibiotics.
	Although that's not a good analogy, actually, because the system's supposed to operate on its own.
	Yeah, that might be an indication the system was working.
	Started defunding it quietly, and then it goes down to, you know, whatever, a couple of dozen, a few dozen pre-9-11, then 9-11 happens.
	Any, well, I mean, I say any indication of whether or not it would have happened had there, it obviously could not have happened to the scale it did.
	But 9-11 happens, and then it's G.W. Bush that comes up and says we should really re-implement the Air Marshal Service?
	That's correct.
	I mean, you know, you would have thought the government would have taken a clue in 1993 with the World Trade Center bombings, right?
	We know that the World Trade Center, that was a failed bombing in 1993 of the World Trade Center.
	So we knew then that the target was going to be the World Trade Center.
	We knew that.
	We knew that since 1993.
	Did we do anything for our aviation to help mitigate that threat?
	We did not.
	Okay, that's incredible.
	So 9-11 happens, whether or not it's because of a total absence of air marshals, box cutters and sharp objects and overtaking the cockpit.
	What's the response and how many air marshals are hired and part of what policy, part of what program?
	I mean, it's all, at the same time, not part of the Patriot Act.
	Patriot Act specifically, is this a totally separate program?
	It's a totally separate program, but they run under the Patriot Act now for their surveillance of Americans, and we can get into that later.
	Oh, yeah, we are.
	But, you know, there's a lot to dig into there.
	But post-9-11, when they started hiring, we were the Transportation Security Administration, part of the FAA, Civil Aviation Specialists.
	They didn't call us air marshals, and we were Civil Aviation Specialists.
	After 9-11, when they started hiring them, we had about 350,000 applications for individuals that wanted to fly in the air marshals.
	Well, the agency says that number is classified, but many, many times they've released it.
	Over 4,000 individuals were hired.
	That doesn't mean that we have 4,000 today, but that was the goal back at that time, post-2001, was thousands of air marshals, and they hired us.
	It was an incredible feat.
	We all were hired.
	I was hired in February of 2020 or 2002, and then went to RTG New Mexico for training in June of 2002.
	And I tell you, it was a huge patriotic push to be able to go to the Federal Law Enforcement Training Center with fellow patriots, and everybody knew that we were going to be on those planes undercover at 35,000 feet, and it was going to be our job to stop any type of terrorist threat.
	It was really a beautiful moment in our country that I have not seen in a very, very long time.
	Wow.
	It actually just blows my mind because they dwindled down a program that maybe had been achieving some success.
	The absence of attack is an indication of success.
	Lord knows where they were spending all that money that they were saving.
	9-11 happens and set aside what the official narrative versus whatever.
	One thing I think most people can agree on.
	Many, many red flags were missed in terms of the attack itself, and American citizens were left literally naked on planes, security-wise, because of an absence of air marshals, which probably easily could have thwarted any, if not all of them.
	After 350,000 applicants, they make 4,000 give or take hires, and so now people feel safe because you've got armed marshals, you just don't know who they are on airplanes for the next 22 years.
	And we're doing this based on, some of it's based on intelligence, some of it's random.
	We're going back and looking at the flights that were taken on 9-11.
	Those were long-haul planes.
	Those were big aircraft with a lot of fuel.
	You know, 12,000 gallons of fuel is a weapon of mass destruction.
	And I know a lot of people think when they think of an air marshal, we're just flying on a plane.
	But really, if you look at that, that's our deployment.
	We're on missions.
	We're deployed.
	We're strapped into that 12,000-gallon weapon of mass destruction to ensure everybody that's getting on that aircraft, from moms and babies and aunts and uncles that are going to family reunions or business or picnics or just going to visit family, that you land safely.
	So my job, flying, is much different from your job as a traveler.
	It's incredible.
	Yeah, big planes, long distances, full tanks, and one-way first-class tickets.
	Nothing.
	That in conjunction with pilots being trained in Florida to fly but not take off or land.
	And another of other anomalies.
	And so for the next two decades, you have air marshals.
	They are, I mean, they're officially police, or is it like a lower or a higher level than, say, certified law enforcement?
	Oh, yes.
	We're all federal law enforcement officers.
	We have arrest powers.
	I mean, we are under a 5-USC code, so we do have, like any other federal law enforcement officer, we have the powers to take someone's freedom away.
	We absolutely do.
	We carry handcuffs with us.
	We use them sometimes.
	Sometimes we don't.
	But normally, if a situation happens on the aircraft...
	We have to work with the Federal Bureau of Investigation, you know, because that is their territory.
	They are all, anything to do with the aviation is in the territory of the FBI.
	And if it's a lower level crime, like a lot of times we'll see an emotionally disturbed person or someone that's had too much alcohol to drink, that will be turned over once it's vetted to ensure there's no terroristic nature to that.
	It's turned over to the local police department.
	Okay, very interesting.
	I forget now, the shoe bomber and the underwear bomber were two separate incidents.
	Were there air marshals on those planes?
	Do you remember?
	They were not.
	There were no air marshals on those planes.
	Okay.
	Okay, so 4,000 air marshals trained.
	We don't know how many are on planes at any given point in time.
	There's a bit of randomness to it, and there's a bit of reconnaissance where they're saying some planes or some flights might, for whatever the reason, have suspicious people on lists on them.
	There might be other reasons for which certain flights are identified in particular.
	We're going to get into this when it comes to the January Sixers, but it is the case that these air marshals identify suspects or targets and then get on the plane just because they happen to be on terror watch lists or whatever?
	Yeah, that's correct.
	We coordinate with other law enforcement entities, like we do coordinate with the FBI on special missions.
	I remember when I used to deploy, and I had a real, let's say, a known suspected terrorist, not a January 6th as of today, because the domestic terrorist has changed.
	Our definition of domestic terrorist in America has changed from what I used to when I was deployed on missions, and I was looking for real bad guys.
	We had a full briefing in a secured area where you had a packet on these individuals that were flying.
	So you really dug into it and you knew the background of why you were doing your mission and why this mattered and who those known persons' contacts were that may be on the plane with them.
	But all that changed after January the 6th, and that is no longer the case as far as our deployment and how in-depth we know the individuals we're following.
	Quad S as a security element has existed since when?
	And that's four S's so that someone goes through additional screening.
	How long has that been in place for?
	Now, that program, they've changed the name a couple of times.
	They'll go from Quiet Skies to Select D to Quad S. You know, the government's really famous on that, David, with you being in the law and being an attorney.
	You understand how the government will play a shell game with the American people, right?
	They'll take a bad program and just rename it to some high-speed name, and it's still the same program, right?
	You put a lipstick on a pig, it's still a pig.
	This program, Quiet Skies, has been around before 2018.
	DHS OIG actually did an investigation on Quiet Skies in 2018, and that report was released in 2020, and said the program was an absolute failure.
	It had not produced one lead to terrorism through all the deployments that we did, and I want to say the dollar amount that was wasted was upward $400 million.
	That doesn't strike me as being all that much anymore, given the hundreds of billions that are being siphoned to foreign countries.
	But yes, that's a monumental waste of money.
	The argument would be there were no other terror attacks since 9-11.
	The metric is, however, identifying, arresting any potential suspects.
	And when you pair that with the idea that there were incidents, but air marshals didn't identify them or weren't involved in the planes...
	It's just basically people sitting on planes and nothing's happening.
	That's correct.
	I mean, there are things that we've gotten involved with behind the scenes.
	I can't really talk about in open because some of those cases are classified.
	So there are things that we have done that are great within the Federal Air Marshal Service.
	What has happened to us because of quiet skies?
	And let's think about it.
	When your head watch group, DHS Office of Inspector General, when they come in and they do an investigation and they give you the recommendations and they tell you what's wrong with the program.
	TSA, the paper tiger that it is, and I'm going to call it a paper tiger because it looks good on paper, but in reality, actionables, it's lacking the ability to keep our country safe.
	It looks good to the American people.
	They hear all these high-speed, select-y, quad-esses, quiet skies, and you think, wow, that's a high-speed program, but in reality, this is just an overreach and a push of TSA because they weren't held accountable.
	In 2020 for what their wrongdoings were with this program.
	So you can see how that fast forward to January 6th.
	And because they weren't held accountable years ago, this is where the overreach came in.
	And if they had been, if somebody had stepped in and told TSA, hey, you cannot, you're overreaching in this surveillance program.
	What you're doing is not producing any results for terrorism.
	Because number one, that's what we're supposed to be looking for, right, as air marshals.
	We're looking for people that should be.
	Want to take over an aircraft, but we're not looking for those people.
	That was no more than a trial and error part for TSA to see how far they could get in their overreach.
	When did you stop actually being on a plane as a marshal?
	2014.
	2014.
	Okay.
	And what is the...
	I'm trying to...
	I'm going to screw up the name now, but the National Marshal...
	The council, sorry.
	What does the council do specifically?
	Okay, so the Air Marshal National Council, we're a professional association for current serving air marshals or retired air marshals.
	We have air marshals in our members that are in all 20 field offices across the nation.
	And when we started the council, our number one goal was to protect the air marshals because the government has a, even on the outside, they have a broad overreach, but even to their employees, they don't treat their employees very well.
	So we started the Air Marshal National Council to make sure.
	That our air marshals were covered if they got injured in the line of duty, that they understood how to file workers' comp claims if they needed to medically retire.
	Because a lot of health conditions, you fly eight, nine million miles, you've got a lot of health issues.
	You need to make sure that you're covered there.
	So we started the council for an employee.
	It's like an employee association for protection.
	But what we've morphed into since we've watched what's happened January 2021, we've morphed into this.
	We're fighting the government for national security reasons to keep air marshals on the plane to try to keep travelers safe.
	So our entire mission has morphed into this protecting the American citizens and travelers from TSA not allowing the air marshals to do their job.
	So now we've taken on this big bite of the apple to try to say, no, we were hired and put in place to keep Americans safe.
	We're not doing that anymore.
	How many air marshals are currently on planes now ensuring safety in the skies?
	It's a very, very, very low number.
	Right now, we've probably got, just throwing out there, less than 25% of the entire workforce that's flying.
	Less than 25%.
	And of those that are flying, following January Sixers.
	That's what I want to get into that in a second.
	Pre-January 6, how would the air marshals go about identifying a potential threat?
	What would be the protocol in following them?
	Who would be getting these enhanced security screenings prior to boarding a flight?
	Right, and those are determined in many different areas.
	Those are determined by custom border patrol people that are coming in through the ports, right?
	People that are coming through international.
	There'll be terror leads for that, FBI leads that are branching out that we help.
	We also help Homeland Security Investigations, the U.S. Marshals.
	I mean, we work with every law enforcement entity regarding people that are bad and want to hurt our nation.
	That's where we would get a full-fledged briefing from those other entities, and we're going to follow individuals.
	Sometimes we may follow them for the entire week that they travel.
	We have different teams of air marshals that will deploy at different missions because we don't want to disclose who we are.
	Can't have the same team of air marshals following the bad guys over and over.
	They're going to know who we are.
	So we work in conjunction with all 20 field offices.
	So if there's air marshal teams, let's say, in Washington field office, they may follow the first leg of the trip and follow an individual that we're looking at on the first leg.
	And let's say there's a team of air marshals from Houston that's going to take the second leg of that trip and follow this individual to the second leg.
	So it's very blended.
	It's a very fluid environment, and it's all based on intelligence.
	That's what we should be doing, right?
	We're not just going to throw a dart on the wall to see if it sticks.
	We should be using our small resources in a very controlled atmosphere to make sure we're following the people that want to do harm to our nation.
	This is wild.
	So, I mean, it's literally as out of the movies as somebody has...
	A suspect has a layover.
	They switch planes and you guys make a change and someone else tails them and gets on the plane and is just casually tracking.
	A potential threat.
	Correct.
	That's what we do.
	This is wild.
	Okay.
	Now, I guess we're going to get to January 6th because I thought you were going to answer there's no air marshals on planes anymore because we're going to get into air marshals apparently at the border to secure the border that the Biden administration is fighting Texas not to secure.
	I thought the answer was going to be zero, but now that I know the answer, you're down to whatever it is, 25% of the force, but they're all being directed to the January 6th.
	All right.
	Not all, but many.
	January 6th.
	Comes and goes and happens.
	How many of the people that went down, that flew, that attended, or that were in D.C. ended up being on a list of potential domestic terrorists?
	Okay, so we had a whistleblower come forward January the 15th, 2021.
	He works in an incident coordination section in headquarters.
	That said, hey, I've got to come forward and let you know, because, you know, it's part of the council.
	That's what we do.
	We have our network of individuals that are in the field bringing information to us.
	That every single person that flew into the National Capital Region from a specific date, could be January the 4th through January the 7th, that TSA created a manifest, and they gave that manifest, the entire manifest of everybody that flew into the region, they gave that entire manifest to the FBI.
	They didn't scrub the list for law enforcement, congressional individuals, anyone, even air marshals were on this list.
	So TSA gives the list to the FBI, but then they take it one step further.
	They take the same list and they ingest it into the national security database and deem every one of those individuals as a suspected domestic terrorist, which would be a category 102 on our deployment roster.
	This is wild.
	And I guess I also, I might not be able to fully appreciate the bureaucratic entities, TSA versus security versus air marshals.
	But so that's basically to say an unfathomable and unmanageable number of people are now on something of a watch list.
	Well, that's right, David, but it's a self-licking ice cream cone.
	TSA can now go.
	And they've got these hundreds of thousands of people on this watch list that they can say, we're using all of our resources.
	Look what a great job we're doing, Congress.
	We need more money.
	Just like we need more Border Patrol agents to process people down on the border, right?
	We don't need Border Patrol agents to enforce immigration laws.
	They want Border Patrol agents to process people faster.
	TSA is doing the exact same things with the January 6th list.
	It's a self-licking ice cream cone.
	They're going to run for years and decades saying, we need more money.
	Look at all the hard work we're doing.
	We've done hundreds of thousands of missions watching these domestic terrorists, and we just have to hire more air marshals now.
	It is an absolute disgrace.
	I'm going to have to go look up that expression, self-licking ice cream run.
	I've never heard it before.
	I understand the concept.
	Okay.
	So basically now, air marshals or TSA are surveilling, have on a list a number of people who have been identified as domestic threats, potentially, because of their participation or, in fact, non-participation in the events of January 6th.
	Do we know what number we're dealing with, you know, roughly?
	It's going to be hundreds of thousands of people, David.
	And what percentage of the resources of the TSA and we're going to go with the air marshals are dedicated to following?
	These identified threats or whatever, like what percentage of the assets of the resources are being dedicated to following these people?
	100%.
	That's our mission.
	We're on the border.
	We only have two things we do.
	We're on the border or we're following J6ers.
	And I don't even say J6ers lightly.
	I want to ping the people that were in the geographical area because we say J6 and automatically someone thinks that someone did something wrong or went into the Capitol.
	That's not the case on the people that we're following.
	They were just in the area at the time.
	They've not been investigated.
	They didn't commit a crime.
	And we're talking about reporters.
	Taylor Hansen, that was one of the conservative reporters.
	That guy has been tracked 20, 30 times throughout his career since he filmed the tragic death of Ashley Babbitt that day at the Capitol.
	He's not been charged with a crime, but he's got air marshals.
	I'm trying to make sure I understand it.
	You say 100% is either to the border, we'll get there in a second, or to January 6th.
	I'm not being glib or flippant.
	There are obviously other risks on planes.
	I mean, you know, the traditional terrorists.
	Is that to say they're not focusing on any other potential threats?
	Specifically, only Jan 6th and not looking at anything else.
	If they are, there's no air marshals that I know that are doing those duties.
	And I have marshals in all 20 offices, and I talk to them every day.
	Did you see the picture that Dave Rubin put up on Twitter the other day?
	I'm going to see if we can bring this up here.
	How does this work when there's two of us?
	Presentation?
	I know you can see this.
	Have you seen this?
	Oh, yes, David.
	That's for the CBP Mobile One.
	That's where people from Venezuela, Honduras...
	And other countries can go online in their country and book to enter our country through a mobile CBP-1 app.
	And then when they get to this country, they're given a written hand notice to appear based on the information they provide to the Border Patrol.
	And they're given a piece of paper that now they can go to the airport and get in a special line with no identification, and they can get on the aircraft before you.
	You're going to be patted down.
	You're going to be searched.
	They're going to go through a special security line.
	That you're not allowed to go through because you're an American citizen and you have to show a real ID.
	And air marshals dedicated to surveilling these people.
	Not that everybody from abroad is a potential, well, everyone is a potential criminal.
	Zero.
	So this, like, Ruben puts up that post.
	It goes viral.
	He ends up, you know, talking about it on Fox News.
	It's something that is there in plain view that nobody knew about until he put it on blast.
	And TSA is proud of that.
	And let's talk about who's responsible.
	That's David Pekoski.
	He's the TSA administrator.
	He and Mayorkas both, they are working hand in hand to destroy this country.
	They're destroying this country.
	They're allowing individuals that have not been vetted.
	We don't even know their real name, right?
	You were an attorney.
	Can you imagine showing up to court with a client that you don't even know?
	Oh, hey, what's your name?
	Hey, let me give it to you on a bar napkin.
	This is my name.
	I'm Canadian.
	I can't imagine voting without two pieces of ID.
	So there's a lot of things that are surprising here.
	But it's mind-blowing.
	When Ruben put it up, some people thought it was a joke.
	Others, you know, it exploded because people just don't know.
	Wild.
	Okay, so the air marshals are dedicated to following January 6th.
	Please explain to the general public who probably...
	He doesn't understand this.
	I've never heard this before.
	I interviewed Brandon Strzok.
	He talks about how whenever he goes now, bam, you know, like multiple.
	It's no doubt Brandon's had a really rough time, you know, through everything that he has gone through.
	I feel really, my heart goes out to him.
	I have a lot of empathy for him that he has been sucked into this vortex of this political nightmare that he's been pulled into.
	And I got, I interviewed a, oh, sorry, go ahead.
	Yeah, Brandon's one.
	He's definitely gone through, and he's even testified in Capitol Hill regarding what has happened to him being on the Quad S list.
	The other one I had was Alfredo Luna.
	I think it's Alpha Warrior.
	He's a veteran, former law enforcement.
	Whenever he flies now, bam.
	I think, I want to say lectern guy, Adam Johnson.
	Is it Andrew or Adam Johnson?
	I always get mixed up, but lectern guy, I believe, also gets the treatment.
	So what is...
	Does following the January Sixers entail for marshals whose job it is to secure the skies?
	Okay, so what we would do on a detail, if we're deployed, we're going to get electronic notification on our phone or on our work computer.
	We're going to be able to see a photograph of this individual or whoever that individual is traveling with.
	Air marshals are going to be assigned.
	We're going to get a phone call from Mission Operations Center and saying, this is your new mission.
	You're going to be, let's say, I'm just going to use this scenario out there.
	Let's say Tampa Airport.
	Right?
	Someone's flying from the Tampa airport.
	We would have a minimum of three air marshals in the Tampa airport waiting for that individual to show up.
	If that individual is on a standby list, and let's say there's three potential flights that person could take, we're going to have nine air marshals standing by because we have to have three per flight per leg.
	So if there's a potential that person could roll the dice and be on a later flight, we have to have air marshals prepared.
	To go on the second and the third mission if necessary.
	If I may interrupt you there, the individuals do not know that they're being tailed by air marshals.
	Well, I think some of them, once now, they're starting to understand what Quades means.
	And I think now that they're starting to get the fact that they're being watched by, you know, people and people are coming up to them, asking them questions.
	They're peering over their shoulder.
	They're trying to look to see who they're texting on their phone.
	They're trying to document what type of computer, what type of device they're using.
	I mean, they're...
	Every time that we do these missions, we have to do what's called an after-action report.
	So the air marshal team will actually document the individual, what they saw, what they were doing, who they were traveling with.
	They'll try to get photographs of them if they can, any type of information they can to upload to these after-action reports.
	But they will try to gather intelligence from you by talking to you as well.
	So some people are tuned in.
	Others have no idea.
	We're going to get to this in terms of now this looks like not just...
	Surveillance, but actual.
	It looks like surveillance, but spying and not just ensuring the safety of the skies.
	So the immense waste of resources is patently obvious, directed at people who I think everyone, even the most staunch vote blue no matter who Democrat would say, are not actual domestic threats in the way that air marshals are supposed to be protecting the skies.
	Virtually all of the resources directed at just following these people.
	They fly, mobilize a team, tail them.
	And from what you're explaining, it sounds like very Soviet-level spying on them as well, listening to their conversations, picking up details.
	And then you write after action reports that will detail all of this and expand any investigation into this guy and whomever he or she is in contact with?
	Yes, and we will do this.
	We will follow people 20, 30, 40. 50 times.
	This is not once or twice or three or four times.
	We're talking years.
	We've been doing this since January the 6th.
	Years we're following the same people.
	I mean, this is outrageous.
	And I'm not trying to be bombastic.
	It's ridiculous.
	If it were a legit threat, like just say Al-Qaeda, if you have members of Al-Qaeda or people who are on international terror watch lists, it would make sense.
	This is purely political.
	David, that's what's so disgusting and sad about it.
	We've taken our eye off the prize of the people that really do want to harm our nation.
	I mean, an 85-year-old grandmother in a walker, she can't even get up the aisle.
	You think she's going to take an aircraft?
	You think she's going to take an aircraft over?
	But we're following elderly people.
	We're following paraplegics.
	We're following two-month-old babies.
	This is what we're doing in our country, and this is why we have to step in with the Air Marshal National Council.
	And expose this story because people died on 9-11.
	It's a very serious issue.
	And now we've got this political, the swamp, who wants to swing a pendulum toward supporters of another political party or someone that may think differently from you.
	And now you're going to be targeted.
	There is a huge push here in the United States to take your freedoms away, and TSA is helping do that.
	As we speak today, people are being followed that were...
	In the National Capital Region on January the 6th.
	As we're speaking...
	No, and I just said I was going to make a...
	I'm trying to make a little bit of a joke.
	You know, like I watched Breaking Bad, Hector Salamanca.
	It's not because someone's a paraplegic that they can't, you know, blow things up.
	But it's a sick joke because, I mean, none of these people, if you ask anybody, would be who you think you need protection from on an airplane.
	Diverting the resources from just more broad security screening is another issue.
	But...
	When I asked, you know, this is like political and they're spying on these individuals and gathering information, do we know if the powers that be are doing anything more nefarious with the information that they've been gathering for the last few years?
	We don't know if they're doing anything more nefarious than that.
	I know that once you're put on that national security database within TSA, like if you were on this list as a 102, a suspected domestic terrorist, If you get pulled over by local law enforcement, your profile is going to pull up on your driver's license picture that you're a domestic terrorist.
	So the overreach is everywhere in your life that you may not even realize.
	When somebody pulls you over, I've had this happen to a couple of people they've called, and the officer treated them really horribly, and they're like, I've never even had a speeding ticket.
	But yet their profile is going to pull up, and they're a suspected 102.
	What would any law enforcement officer think if they pulled their computer open?
	And they ran somebody's driver's license and it pops up as a domestic terrorist.
	I mean, you're going to be toast right then and there, right?
	No matter what, you may have made a riot or maybe you ran a red light or maybe there was something you could have talked to the officer.
	You're going to be toast at that moment.
	You're not going to get a credibility.
	You're done.
	Well, and also I would imagine it could conceivably lead to unnecessary escalations in law enforcement where a policeman will be much more apprehensive when dealing with someone who flags up as a domestic terrorist.
	They are.
	So for those who are on the watch list as a result of their participation or even proximate participation in January 6th, they're labeled as domestic terrorists.
	That's correct.
	They're labeled as a 102, a suspected domestic terrorist.
	It spells that out clearly in our deployment missions.
	On the missions that we get to deploy, it spells it out exactly who they are.
	Holy effing S. I'm trying not to swear you're a new guest and I don't want to be too foul-mouthed.
	Holy sweet merciful hell.
	How do the air marshals feel about this?
	A lot of them have left and retired.
	Many of them have left.
	They said, I'm not going to do this.
	A lot of them know that they'll be fired if they refuse an order.
	A lot of them really don't want to do this, and they have volunteered to go down to the border so they can not have to follow American citizens.
	It doesn't feel right.
	You know, we were brought over after 9-11 for a patriotic reason.
	We all trained together in Artesia, New Mexico.
	There were thousands of us.
	We know each other.
	This is not the mission that we were hired to do.
	May I ask the totally crass question?
	What's a typical salary for an air marshal?
	It varies anywhere from $75,000 to $125,000.
	There was a big pay bump they just received a couple of months ago.
	And I won't say that that's hush money.
	I mean, they deserve to get pay raises.
	They haven't had pay raises in 15 years, many of them.
	But it's almost like TSA is going...
	Hey guys, we know what we're doing is not right, but we're going to give you a pay raise.
	Let's get into the fold with a little bit of extra cash.
	And to me, I was just describing how you get this ideological capture of the court system, you get an ideological capture of the police system, and then you get an ideological capture of the marshal system, where you'll get the good ones to resign, and you'll get the ones who want to spy on January Sixers to apply and get the jobs, and you've weaponized this entire thing to be basically a spy apparatus.
	It is something I never thought I would witness in my time on this earth.
	Honestly, I never thought that I would see these type of tactics being used against the American people, ever.
	Even law enforcement in Daytona Beach to being a federal air marshal until now.
	It is absolutely shocking what we have uncovered and what's continuing to happen.
	Now, this should be a nonpartisan issue, right?
	It doesn't matter what side of the aisle you're on in Congress, Republican or Democrat.
	You should not want your constituents being spied on, period.
	Doesn't matter.
	But right now, because we have the Biden administration in office and we have those uniparty parts in Congress that are supporting this and not doing anything about it, it should be outrageous to every American traveler that this could happen to you or your two-month-old daughter or your five-month-old child or a five-year-old child or a 17-year-old female cheerleader that's on the list right now.
	following a 17 year old cheerleader around because she happened to be at a cheer competition during January the 6th and was nowhere near the Capitol.
	And her parents don't know her parents don't know we're following her.
	It's a, I mean, it's a, it's just, it's, it's, um, It's mind-blowingly absurd.
	It's unfathomable.
	It's almost too ridiculous to believe.
	And then you get into the absurd situations of the nine-month-old kid.
	You sent me the link, and one can understand.
	Yeah, a nine-month-old kid is on the terror watch list, but presumably because his father Well, right.
	And it's two months.
	The baby's only two months old.
	It's a two-month-old baby.
	It's probably three months old now.
	Wasn't even conceived on January 2021.
	Think about that.
	The baby wasn't even a thought at the time.
	Think about it.
	Now when the baby flies, because the baby's name's been put in the computer, it doesn't matter if it's with the grandparents.
	It doesn't matter if the aunt or the uncle.
	The baby doesn't have to travel with the father.
	The baby's information is in the system now.
	So whoever travels with the baby, the mother who wasn't there, the grandparents that weren't there, are going to have those quad S's on their boarding pass.
	This is going to be something that affects that family for years to come.
	And once you get on this list, it's seven years.
	It's a seven-year process unless you try to do something yourself to get off of it.
	Oh my goodness.
	Okay, you're going to tell me if I've forgotten to ask anything about this because it's abundantly clear it's not serving any other purpose other than administrative state spying on political adversaries, period.
	When I ask if they've done anything else more nefarious with the information they've gathered, okay, fine, when you get pulled over, that comes up and it'll severely alter the way law enforcement will interact with you.
	Have there been any stories of people who are on this list being mysteriously audited, being mysteriously investigated by their professional orders?
	Anything along those lines that you know of?
	Let me tell you about this one story.
	We have an air marshal who is an operations officer, been in the government now 28 plus years.
	He is one of the air marshals that assigns missions.
	He deploys the air marshals on these missions.
	He picks the three air marshals and see who's in the area and what days work and what the hours are.
	So he assigns the mission.
	So he comes to work, opens his computer, and lo and behold, the first mission he sees, it's his wife.
	His wife is a suspected domestic terrorist because she went to the Ellipse.
	He opens the computer.
	Imagine the hysteria.
	He's like, wait a minute.
	That's my wife.
	My wife was at the Ellipse.
	She never went to the Capitol.
	But she's listed in the system as a domestic terrorist who entered the Capitol.
	It said she entered into the Capitol on January the 6th.
	Now, that's an absolute lie.
	But it didn't matter.
	They put it in the database anyway to get her rated as a domestic terrorist.
	So he goes to his boss immediately.
	The special agent in charge, his name is Bill Arperly, who, by the way, has been promoted to an assistant administrator at TSA.
	Just imagine how that magic wand happens when you do the wrong thing.
	Get promoted.
	So he goes to Operally and he says, this is a mistake.
	My wife should not be on this list.
	And Operally goes, oh, it's okay.
	You just got to let it play out.
	You can't say anything.
	You can't tell your wife she's on the list.
	You have to assign the air marshals to follow your wife, but you can't say anything to her.
	So after work hours, you can't tell your wife that she's on this list.
	You have to keep that quiet.
	And he's like, but I have a top secret clearance.
	Like, how is this going to affect my top secret clearance when I go in to get my clearance renewed?
	I'm going to have to disclose that I'm living with a suspected domestic terrorist, right?
	Because if we all thought about a true insider threat, this would be a true insider threat situation if this was brought forward.
	The proper thing would have been to have done an administrative inquiry to ensure that there was no insider threat, but that didn't happen.
	None of that happened.
	He was told to keep quiet about it.
	So he assigns the air marshals.
	Air marshals are following his wife.
	Now they followed her over and over and over.
	The story gets crazier.
	So he's an air marshal also.
	So during the holidays, he flew with her.
	They traveled for family reasons.
	Stop, stop, stop, stop, stop.
	He's flying with her, so he knows there are air marshals following him.
	He's armed, right.
	Not only does he know it, as their flight gets delayed and they have to move gates, the team of air marshals that's flying them have to text and update on a mission report the status of the individuals they're following.
	So he's getting those reports because he's the ops officer.
	So he's getting the updates from the air marshals who are watching him, talking about the gates that they moved to and what clothes they're wearing.
	And it's him.
	It's him and his wife.
	So he's seeing the live updates about them talking about him.
	But another really interesting part of this story, as an air marshal, you have to do what we call a deconfliction with anybody that's armed on the plane.
	Because there's Secret Service agents, there's HSI, there's FBI, there's other armed individuals that we have to meet with prior to going on the aircraft.
	To make sure that we don't have a blue on blue situation or somebody doesn't, you know, try to take someone else's weapon.
	We know that everybody's a gun toter and they're supposed to be there.
	So he has to go to the gate and do a deconfliction and show identification to the other air marshals that he's the air marshal that they're flying, that they're following.
	So he's flying armed with the team of air marshals that are armed.
	So in reality, you had a bad guy and he's sitting behind him, by the way, just to let you know how smart that was.
	So, by the way, so now he had to deconflict with the, he's the bad guy that the guys are following, so now you've got a potential bad guy armed on an aircraft behind the air marshals on a mission.
	That's how crazy this is.
	It's a Monty Python skit.
	I mean, this is an absolute Monty Python skit.
	I was going to say, the only silver lining is they might thwart a terrorist attack just by virtue of dumb luck, like they'll be on a plane, and hey, we're here, but we were following the air marshals' wife.
	And I also thought part of the joke was going to be that she found herself on the list because she traveled unknowingly with someone else and they discovered an affair, which I suspect could also happen.
	It's a ridiculous Monty Python skit.
	Okay.
	We've got to get to the border situation as well.
	Why would air marshals be going to the southern border?
	Well, at first we just thought that was incompetence.
	We thought, well, hey, they need resources.
	They're trying to backfill spots down on the border.
	But now we're truly in belief that this is done by design, that they actually want something to happen on the aircraft.
	They actually, I mean, we're taking a very small workforce.
	We talked about our numbers.
	We're not a very large workforce in the first place.
	And there's no way to backfill our duties in the aircraft.
	You can't just pull someone out of a normal, let's say, Homeland Security investigations.
	You can't just pull them out and put them in an aircraft because you have to practice a linear assault.
	You have to know that territory.
	Think about working in an aircraft.
	It's a very small tube.
	You have to think about your shot placement.
	You have to be a great shooter.
	By the way, you have to have some great skills, and you have to be super calm, because think about something going bad at 35,000 feet, and you have to bring a firearm out to take care of that threat.
	So you can't just backfill these spots with other law enforcement.
	We don't have a capacity to surge in the aircraft.
	They started taking us down in 2021, so we've been fighting this for three years.
	But we believe that this is done by design.
	It's going to leave the aircraft open.
	It's going to leave our very valuable resources that we need.
	They're not going to be there for the American people.
	I mean, we've had some serious incidents happen on the aircraft.
	We had people try to breach the cockpit.
	We've had a flight attendant that was stabbed.
	We've had serious incidents.
	So it's not as if TSA doesn't know, David Pekoski doesn't know, he is handcuffing the air marshals from stopping another 9-11.
	And it is his fault.
	The incidents that have been serious are just general disturbances, nothing terrorist motivated.
	Do I ask the question?
	I'm a neurotic person.
	I'm not sure I want to know the answer.
	How impenetrable is the cockpit?
	It's secured.
	I mean, and this is a thing that's different.
	Pre-9-11...
	The captains were told, just open the cockpit door.
	Just go with whatever they want.
	They're just going to try to take the aircraft and land it in a different country.
	You're supposed to do what the hijacker wants you to do.
	Post 9-11, that's not the case anymore.
	Those cockpits have been hardened, and they're not going to open the door.
	So if anything were to occur on an aircraft now, they're not going to open the door.
	So if they take hostages or something, God forbid, happens like it did on 9-11.
	They're instructed.
	They won't open the door.
	And that's what's different now than what was different prior to 9-11 is they would have opened the door prior to that.
	And now they're not going to do that.
	Now it's going to be a question of triggering something catastrophic behind the cockpit.
	So you say that the Marshall force is now 25% of what it was a few years ago?
	Well...
	We don't know the exact number.
	Everyone that came on when I came on, they've hit their retirement age.
	They've hit mandatory 20, if you think about 20. 2002, we stood the agency up with thousands.
	We're 2024.
	We're 22 years later.
	A lot of men and women have their time in.
	They're really sickened by what's happened in the last couple of years, and they've walked away.
	They've just said, I'm popping smoke.
	I'm out of here.
	This is not what I signed up to do after 9-11.
	So I say we have 25% flying.
	The other part of our workforce is either down on the border, handing out, you know, water, and we're making sure that we're driving the illegals to the airport to be on the aircraft that we're not going to be on, and they can get to a special security line.
	So we're doing everything other than what we should be doing to protect our aviation domain.
	So if I'm doing quick math, and I'm not a mathematician, but it's 25% of the force is currently on planes, all of whom basically are following Jan Sixers.
	The force itself is sort of dwindling or dilapidated, so you have 25% of a smaller force on planes focusing on absolute irrelevant, and I'll dare say it, basically irrelevant targets.
	And then another portion going down to the border, not to enforce and prevent illegal immigrants from entering, but to...
	Did you say hand them water and instruct them to go where upon entry?
	That's right.
	We're instructing them.
	We're taking them to the hospital to get stitches.
	We're going to make sure they get band-aids and that they get patched up if they've had any type of injury.
	So we're going to sit at the hospital two, three, four hours.
	You know what it's like trying to get care if you're in the emergency room, right?
	We know that there's not a quick process.
	You've got teams of air marshals.
	They don't travel alone.
	You've got teams of air marshals doing these duties.
	And we're told specifically before we get to the border, You're not a law enforcement officer.
	We don't need you.
	We need you for non-law enforcement functions.
	Not law enforcement functions.
	Non-law enforcement.
	So we're not even doing anything that would be considered truly helping the Border Patrol.
	Who is deploying the air marshals to the southern border?
	Whose decision is that?
	TSA David Pekoski.
	The same guy that's his decision to deploy the air marshals to follow the J6ers.
	One guy.
	This one guy is doing it all.
	I want to go quickly Google him.
	Say his name one more time.
	It's David, D-A-V-I-D, Pekoski.
	P-O-K-O-S-K-E.
	David Pekoski.
	Air Marshal.
	Let me just see here.
	He's on Twitter.
	And who appointed David Pekoski?
	How long has he been there for?
	Okay, so he was appointed first in 2019.
	He was appointed under Trump.
	And then he was reappointed, which is surprising, in September of 2022.
	So he's been reappointed for five more years, even after it was exposed that he was following the January Sixers in 2021.
	In July of 2021, we exposed to several congressional committees that he was following people illegally from January the 6th.
	But he was confirmed in the Senate, though.
	Listen, he was still confirmed in 2022, a year and a year.
	How many votes does it take to confirm in the Senate?
	Is it a simple majority?
	I believe it's 60. So bottom line, that is to say there's a number of Republicans who voted for Pekoski despite it being revealed that he was using the air marshals to follow January 6th.
	That's correct, and nobody's ever had a hearing on Pekoski yet as to why he's taking his entire workforce and putting them...
	End a political vortex.
	I'm going to try to steel man this.
	Is Pekoski going to come out and say that you are factually incorrect in your assessment and that we have 50% allocated to international terrorists?
	He's going to lie because that's what he does best.
	He lies.
	Liar.
	Make sure you get a big screen on your show if you get him on here because you're going to need that nose will grow as long as your screen will let it.
	So the Air Marshal Council, what is now the interplay between the Air Marshal Council and the TSA by way of institutions?
	It's not pretty.
	It's not pretty.
	We fight them every day.
	And we're going to because they're doing the wrong thing.
	And yes, we're a small organization, but I'll tell you, we have a mighty big heart and we've got some very dedicated patriots that we are not going to allow TSA to push this false narrative on people that we care about and we absolutely love.
	If they think we're going anywhere, they've got another thing coming.
	We're not going anywhere until this gets straightened out.
	So you've raised the flag now.
	I've seen, you know, you're doing the rounds trying to raise the awareness because I don't, if I didn't know it, I presume that the average person didn't know it, that they basically sicked the marshals on January 6th.
	I mean, I knew, when I interviewed Strock, I understand what he's saying.
	Like, okay, fine, you're on a list.
	You know, the big profile names are on the list.
	That they basically, you know, the next step is to turn this on parents who speak out at school board meetings because they're domestic terrorists.
	They'll end up on a no-fly list.
	I didn't appreciate the extent of it.
	And the idea that the TSA is deploying air marshals to the border, but not to secure the border, basically to chaperone illegal immigrants as they enter the country illegally.
	And it's horrible.
	They're not doing any type of duties down there.
	I mean, I've spoken, you know, we get guys that are deployed and girls that are deployed now.
	And, you know, we don't know what kind of situation that's going to put us in with what's going on in the state of Texas, right?
	You've got the federal government there pushing one end and you've got Governor Abbott pushing the other end for the state.
	So, you know, we're going to be in a very big debacle here in a short period of time unless it gets figured out really quick.
	And I know that our aviation, we can't afford any mistakes, David.
	We have to be perfect with what we do with the resources we have.
	And I have to tell you, we're not even close to trying to find a way to thwart another 9-11.
	And I'll give the big takeaways, and then I'll ask you if I've missed anything.
	The big takeaways are that the air marshal as an institution, dwindling, dilapidated, and I'll dare say violently politicized, entirely or virtually entirely focused on what many people would agree is not an actual domestic terror threat in the skies, ignoring, or at the very least not...
	Looking into and paying attention to what most people would consider to be the actual risk for terrorism or violence in the skies.
	Being deployed to the southern border to chaperone illegal immigrants while also simultaneously putting infants, not even conceived, maybe they were thoughts back in Jan 2021, but not even conceived on the watch list and wasting resources tracking two to three month old babies, which could involve upwards of however many air marshals.
	And it's really sad.
	And one other point I want to put out, David, they're so desperate for air marshals now.
	They won't bring the air marshals off the border.
	They put a call to action to have retired air marshals come back because they have no resources.
	Our resources are depleted.
	They just put this out two weeks ago within the air marshal, within TSA.
	They're trying to hire people back that retired five, eight, ten years ago because they have no deep bench.
	We're not prepared, but they won't take the air marshals off the border.
	They have the resources if they would use the air marshals on the border back in aviation, but they won't do it.
	They're going to hold the line with Mayorkas down on the border.
	They don't care.
	Has there been, I mean, petitions are not really worth the digital paper they're printed on, but have the air marshals signed anything of a petition to say, get us off the January Sixers and, you know, let the peacocks fly to quote the other guys?
	I mean, has anybody vocally come out and said, this is ridiculous, get us off this duty?
	Oh gosh, we have filed, listen David, we've filed with the DHSO IG.
	We filed ethics complaints.
	We are working with Congressional Committee right now.
	I sent you a clip of Representative Clay Higgins on House Homeland.
	We brought air marshals to testify in front of Congress.
	It is time for action to be taken, and these individuals held accountable.
	I want to make this clear.
	This started with January 6th from a letter from Benny Thompson.
	Benny Thompson wrote a letter January the 11th, 2021.
	He wrote a letter to Pekoski.
	Wanting Pekoski to disrupt the travel of white supremacists and domestic terrorists who were at the Capitol.
	Now, one letter got the entire agency.
	The lapdog got called out.
	The entire agency, Pekoski's his lapdog, called him out, and Pekoski turned this entire air marshal program into a political weapon.
	If one letter from Benny Thompson can start it, why can't one letter from somebody else stop it?
	I think that's what November 2024 is going to be about.
	And everybody, Benny Thompson is B-E-N-N-I-E Thompson, not to be confused with Benny Johnson, two very different people, for anybody who does a quick Google search and tries to pull up tweets or messages.
	Sonia, have I forgotten anything that I should have asked, did not know to ask, or something that you absolutely just want to make sure that people know before we leave?
	Nope.
	I just want to let you know, I've looked at a lot of the after-action reports, and you know what people are reporting?
	The lady had on a pink Trump hat.
	She wore a red Trump hat.
	Oh, wait a minute.
	She had on a pink Trump T-shirt.
	That's the kind of things that are going on in these after-action reports, which I think is pretty glaring as to what the temperature is in the political arena right now.
	It's political harassment.
	Make travel impossible.
	Ruin people's lives.
	Impede the normal functioning.
	And I would stand to guess.
	That they gather information and these people might be subjected to other forms of federal government harassment or whatever.
	Audits, professional bodies investigating.
	Undoubtedly.
	I mean, that would be my best guess.
	Where can people find you to follow the work that you're doing?
	And I'll put the links in the pinned comment when we're done.
	Thank you so much.
	Well, you can go to airmarshallnc.com is our website.
	That's airmarshallnc.com.
	You can follow me at LaboscoSanya.
	It's my last name and my first name.
	Or you can follow us at AirMarshals underscore AMNC on Twitter.
	And we appreciate all the help from the American people trying to get this out.
	At the end of the day, they matter more than any paper tiger TSA is trying to make it look like on paper.
	We're telling you, we need your help and we need people to scream at the top of their lungs because we don't want another 9-11.
	We don't want to see what our country went through that day again.
	I'm good at screaming, Sonia.
	So I'll keep it on blast.
	And everybody watching now, snip, clip, and share the highlights, and I'll do the same thing.
	We'll keep in touch.
	When there's news, if and when, you'll come back on pleased to give updates.
	Thank you so much, David.
	And just thank you for helping highlight this important issue.
	I appreciate it.
	And Aaron Freeman was the individual that reached out to you.
	So I want to tell Aaron, thank you so much for helping push this brother, because that's what it takes.
	We have to keep pushing these important issues to the top.
	Absolutely.
	And I mean, people sometimes think it's for lack of interest or some sort of, like, We'll see you later, David.
	Thank you so much.
	Thank you.
	Bye-bye.
	Now I'm going to see how I go kick from the studio.
	Does that do it?
	That's how it does it.
	Okay, and then I'm back in here.
	People, it's freaking wild.
	Oh, I forgot my jokes.
	I told her about my jokes beforehand.
	I said I was going to start the show off with either the scene from Bridesmaids with the Air Marshal or from Harold and Kumar Escape Guantanamo Bay.
	But whenever I put in movie clips, the streams get copyclaimed, and I'm not interested in having to fight bullshit copyclaims or make money for NBC Universal or whomever.
	What we're going to do now is we're going to go over to Rumble and Locals.
	So I'm going to end this stream on X. Let me see who's still watching on X. I'm going to end it on X, and we're going to go over to Rumble.
	For some other stories and locals.
	And then I'm going to end it on Rumble.
	We're going to go to locals supporters only for a couple of stories and some after party.
	Let me just make sure that I know what I'm doing here.
	I see some notifications in the Twitter world.
	What do we got here?
	Okay, so we got some funny stuff.
	Okay, we're good.
	I'm checking some notifications.
	Everybody, get your butts on over to Rumble.
	I'll give the link.
	to vivabarneslaw.locals.com in YouTube before we head out.
	Now I see...
	Okay, I see some super chats in YouTube.
	Let me go back to the...
	Oh, this is a problem, by the way.
	The chat froze about a half an hour ago, so I let the team know because this has been happening, so they're going to fix this.
	But I'm going to go to the YouTubes and bring them up.
	We got a...
	Master Ball Rubius got a beautiful cat in his avatar.
	Great guest today, Viva.
	Thank you for bringing her on.
	It's amazing.
	I'm a little neurotic.
	I've got to make sure that the people who are coming on are not who they say they are, but are legit.
	Sony is legit.
	I did my homework for the better part of the day.
	I was going to say the better part of the week.
	It's outrageous.
	And it highlights...
	Biden and the Biden administration are now turning the air marshals into what Edgar Hoover turned the FBI into.
	It's amazing.
	An apparatus of the state for political harassment and political spying.
	The air marshals involved need to be thrown in jail for human smuggling.
	Oh, the border issue.
	Yeah, that's from Patriot Asylum, who's got the Punisher skull.
	Hold on.
	Oh, is that the...
	Hold on a second.
	That says Patriot.
	This was what I had on Alpha Warrior X. He's like, that skull they think is part of the three percenter.
	Or the movie The Punisher, you know?
	I can't bring up the chat so everybody can see it.
	Okay, so that is it.
	That ends the Super Chats.
	Get your butts on over to Rumble, where we're going to continue this party.
	And Twitter, YouTube.
	Hasta mañana.
	Come on over to Rumble or vivabarneslaw.locals.com.
	And I'm going to do this right now.
	Rumble and Locals.
	Booyah!
	Okay, good.
	Now we should be live only on the two platforms that matter.
	Rumble?
	VivaBarnsLaw.locals.com.
	We got Politidoxy says, yes, I'm so glad I was able to help make this interview happen.
	For anyone who wants to listen to more, she has to say, click on my profile and find my interview with Sonia.
	That is Politidoxy.
	Let me see if I can find your profile, sir, on the Rumbles.
	Okay, it's not, let me bring it up.
	Okay, now hold on, because I think I took, I put the stuff in the backdrop that I wanted to talk about.
	Afterwards.
	Let me see what I got here.
	Oh, crap.
	I didn't create my bookmarks.
	Give me a second, people.
	What was the story of the day?
	The story of the day.
	Eyes in the skies.
	There's that.
	I'm just going through my Twitter feed because that is basically where I keep bookmarks of the news.
	That's right.
	I wanted to talk about the Joe Warmington article.
	Of an incident that many of you might not know happened in Canada.
	Speaking of air marshals and keeping a country safe from potential terroristic threats, I guarantee most of you don't know this happened.
	I didn't know what happened.
	And I'm Canadian.
	Now, admittedly, I'm not living in Canada.
	And I'm not living in Edmonton, Alberta.
	Was it in Edmonton?
	Hold on a second.
	How do I share your screen?
	Right here?
	Boom.
	There we go.
	Look at this.
	By the way, Joe Warmington.
	Joe Warmington is a journalist who has taken the red pill.
	I love it.
	I love watching people's transformations in real time.
	I love watching other people's transformations in real time as much as many of you love having watched my transformation in real time.
	It's been amazing.
	Okay, but now Warmington is reporting on an incident that many of you may not know happened.
	Warmington.
	This was a jihad-like terror attack in Canada that no one seems to know about.
	And I'm going to play Dan Dick's take on this afterwards.
	Look at this.
	This happened in Edmonton.
	A screen grab from video inside Edmonton Hall on Tuesday, January 23rd.
	It's not every day there is a jihadist-inspired terror attack.
	I'm just trying to make sure we see the article.
	In Canada, related to Israel's war in Gaza that few seem to know about.
	By the way, just out of curiosity, who knew that this happened?
	Until today, if you were following me on Twitter, who knew prior to today that this happened?
	Let me just go see.
	One, yes, we knew about it.
	Two, no, we did not know about it.
	People in the chat are saying, no links, nothing here.
	I don't have the links up yet.
	I'm going to put the links afterwards, but right now we're looking at the article, so everybody should see that.
	So one, yes, I knew it happened.
	And two, no, I did not know it happened.
	And I suspect it's going to be a lot of twos.
	That was about 50 /50.
	Well, we got an above-average crowd even on Rumble.
	So yeah, it happened.
	Let's just see the details and then I'll play you a video that I guarantee none of you have seen because I haven't seen it and I spend my day on the internet.
	But it did happen in the country.
	It's just fortunate no one was murdered in the process.
	The potential was definitely there.
	This was an all-out Gaza-inspired jihadist terror attack with gunfire and homemade bombs at Edmonton City Hall on Tuesday, and not a word out of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau about it so far.
	In fact, on X, he was talking about being at a women's professional hockey game in Ottawa.
	Yeah, I'll pull up that clip because Justin Trudeau is an unhinged lunatic, and that's not confession through projection.
	I'm very much comfortable with the degree to which...
	My brain is wired.
	This was a terrifying incident.
	Security video shows a man entering Edmonton City Hall wearing a commissaire's security jacket, carrying a long gun, and appearing to shoot it.
	Police say he was heavily armed, but no one seems to be talking about it that much.
	Here's Justin Trudeau.
	Oh, God.
	Let me see this here.
	I'll bring that up in the backdrop, and we'll watch that one afterwards.
	That's what Justin Trudeau's doing.
	He's mingling with the ladies.
	He's a real ladies man.
	Okay, we'll come back to that in a second.
	Oh, God, I hate this guy.
	No.
	We're not coming back to it in a second.
	We're looking at it right now.
	Let's see what he has to say.
	An amazing opportunity for us to be here, but what an opportunity for so many people across the country.
	Is he parading his kids out again?
	Is this guy parading his kids, the one who asked for privacy while he's getting divorced from his wife for him and his kids?
	Parading them out, I think.
	I think those are his kids.
	Yes, it is.
	The numbers are coming out, the people you're inspiring, the young women you're bringing along and seeing that everything is possible.
	Everything is possible.
	Playing hockey.
	Just being here and being able to cheer you on and encourage you on everything you're doing is absolutely awesome.
	Good for you women.
	This is not the pre-game speech I'm used to giving, but a very special one.
	It's an honor to have you.
	Thank you as well for the support and hopefully we'll get a W for you, but we want to make sure that you fit in in the friends and family crowd.
	Do they show him clapping in the crowd like a lunatic?
	This is 59 seconds.
	It feels like having a roof now.
	There you go.
	Thank you so much.
	Ugh.
	Ugh.
	God, he's so gross.
	It's beyond words.
	Okay.
	It's almost like the potential genocidal rampage was missed by the country or even covered up or softened in its terms.
	Brickhouse Nutrition, getting some free advertising there.
	Certainly, when you compare the coverage to the reaction of the media, the politicians of the trucker convoy, yada, yada, yada.
	What happened here was way more serious than anything with the truckers' protests, but you would never know about it, judging from the reaction of the media or the lack thereof.
	However, things are spun about what happened.
	It was clearly a dark and concerning something...
	Okay, whatever.
	Let's review what we know.
	At approximately 10.08 a.m.
	on Tuesday, January 23rd, 2024, a male parked his vehicle in the City Hall Underground Parkade, then entered the building from the Parkade Access.
	Edmonton police say.
	Once inside the hall, he lit several handheld incendiary devices, believed to be a Molotov cocktails, that caused one small fire outside an elevator.
	He then fired several rounds from a long gun into the ceiling, walls, and windows.
	Hmm.
	Let's review what we know.
	Thankfully, no one was struck by the gunfire.
	The male then dropped the firearm, surrendered to the security hall commissary, who detained him until police arrived moments later.
	Police added, and RCMP tactical teams then worked for several hours to secure and clear the building of any further threats.
	Okay.
	Oh, we're going to hear his video.
	That's what happened.
	This is the video.
	Are we seeing this?
	Yeah, we're seeing this again.
	Got to blur his face because, you know, it's not like he posted a video.
	Leaders, officials, and anybody that has hands into this corruption, into this genocide that's going on in Gaza and throughout the world, anybody that is destabilizing other countries, hurting their community, what do you call, should feel ashamed of themselves.
	And inshallah, we will rise against you guys and we'll put you on trial.
	That's the video.
	And they got to blur out his face somewhere else.
	So you can't let people know.
	Okay, the alleged terrorist suspect is...
	Canadian...
	Himself a Canadian corps of commissaire's security guard, but not at City Hall.
	In an orange jumpsuit, he made his first appearance.
	Okay, people have heard his voice in what is believed to be a homemade video.
	In the video, the man came to Canada in 2012 from Afghanistan.
	Tapes suggesting people fight, quote, this corruption into this genocide, and that's going on in Gaza and throughout the world.
	Insula, if God wills in Arabic, we will rise against you guys and put you on trial.
	What else is going on here?
	Well, that's basically the story.
	But how does anybody know for sure?
	Let me see here.
	We believe this individual acted alone and believe there are no other accomplices.
	But how do we know for sure?
	We heard the same explanation in 2018 with the Danforth shooter, Faisal Hussein, who shot to death two young women on a July night and wounded 13 other people.
	Despite having connections to a brother before the courts and having earlier traveled to Pakistan and sparing some in his bloody path, a conclusion was made that...
	No one knew why he committed these heinous crimes.
	But there was so much carnage, there was no easy way to gloss it over.
	The video of the manifesto reminds of the killer in the cenotaph slaying a terror event at Parliament Hill that saw the terrorist statement video.
	We fear that the perpetrator's reference to Hamas-Israel conflict in their manifesto will only lead to further incitement against Canadian Jews in the midst of an unprecedented...
	But you know what you really should do when something like that happens?
	If you ask Justin Trudeau, you should obviously import the foreign conflict by...
	How do I get the thing out here?
	You should import the foreign conflict by bringing in refugees from that part of the world.
	It should not be any neighboring countries that do it.
	You should bring refugees from that conflict into Canada.
	How did he get the firearm, by the way?
	If we're asking the obvious questions.
	How'd that happen?
	Now, I want to play a video from Dan Dix, who posted a tweet about this earlier, because he's thus far proven to be a very smart man with good insight.
	Here's my take on it for what it's worth, and I'll bring it up here.
	Let me see here.
	Yeah, okay, I can do this.
	Bada bing, bada boom.
	Dan Dix is a journalist.
	Just share this with everybody so you know what's going on.
	Stop screen share, start screen share, what everyone is missing.
	And I'll just play this here.
	This new self-defense weapon is going to get banned.
	Go on!
	Everyone needs to have this tool to protect their home.
	Why is everyone buying this new clip?
	I don't know, you tell me!
	It gives you the most incredible zoom capabilities with just a simple...
	Very cool.
	We're going to skip.
	We've heard the video.
	Let's get to Dan Dix.
	News that the mainstream media is trying to cover up.
	On the morning of Tuesday, January 23rd, a 28-year-old security guard entered Edmonton City Hall dropping a Molotov cocktail and shooting randomly into doors, the ceiling, walls, and windows.
	Global News reports that Edmonton City Hall's shooting suspect was a security guard who released manifestos.
	The article goes on here to say...
	He talked about completing a mission and listed a wide range of concerns, including affordability, the housing crisis, and immigration.
	It's amazing because you go watch the whole video.
	I'm going to share this link with all of you.
	You go watch this whole video and you will see Link to Dan Dix.
	You'll see everything.
	I don't want to steal all of Dan Dix's thunder and everybody should go watch it anyhow.
	Canada has probably not heard of this.
	I'll go do a small sample test with my...
	With friends and family.
	Let's watch for a few more seconds.
	Affordability, the housing crisis and immigration?
	Seems you left out a few key points there.
	Oh, you know, like how he started and ended his call to action by saying, As-salamu alaykum, brothers and sisters.
	Let's rise up against anyone involved with genocide in Gaza.
	Gee, I wonder why the Israeli bootlicking Canadian mainstream media wanted to omit that.
	Or what about when he said, if I don't succeed, someone else will succeed for me?
	You'd think the Canadian people might want to know about that part.
	You'd also think that the Prime Minister would surely have something to say about a shooting that happened in Edmonton City Hall, right?
	And it goes on, and it's worth listening to.
	The bottom line, he's highlighting the obvious, but in times of lies and deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act.
	It is...
	Patently obvious what the problems are.
	It's patently obvious that the media is covering it up.
	And when they report on it, they will focus on that little thing he said in between inflation, housing, and whatever, and not the beginning and the end.
	And they'll try to downplay it because it doesn't fit the narrative while trying to get you to believe outright lies.
	It's preposterous.
	Now, hold on a second.
	We're going to go here.
	I'm going to go to locals for one second.
	I think I got to all the questions that anyone had for Sonia, but let me go to the locals thing here.
	Where is locals?
	Okay, we're good.
	It's happening, incidentally, the day after the International Court of Justice renders its decision condemning Israel, ordering it to stop with the genocide.
	I see Jay Israel ruling.
	I'm reading through the PDF.
	I hate the subject, and I don't want to really talk about it.
	It's an interesting ruling, but that is the news of the day, so we'll see what else that produces by way of consequences politically throughout the world.
	As we head on over to the local side, let me just go back.
	There was another story that I wanted to talk about.
	It'll be lighthearted.
	We'll at least finish up with something.
	We'll go with one good news clip.
	The Coutts Men.
	I would say the Coutts Four is a label that some people don't like because on the one hand there's more than four Coutts defendants, but it also suggests almost a connection between the four men that could justify some people's theorizing that the men were acting in concert for nefarious purposes.
	But!
	All that to say, it's gone.
	And as much as I hate Fox News and believe that they are terrible and will be off the air in a few years or irrelevant, they still have a big platform in the States.
	listen to this.
	Justin Trudeau is the liberal face of fascism and authoritarianism.
	This guy is liberal authoritarianism.
	He likes to fly around the country, fly around the world, lecturing people about climate change and human rights.
	And meanwhile, at home, he literally has political prisoners for the crime of dissenting.
	This man smeared these truckers who came out in a nonviolent way to protest the COVID overreach and the COVID regime.
	He put them in jail.
	There are four guys, the Coutts four, look it up, who are sitting in prison and haven't seen their families for two years for the crime of dissent.
	Justin, I wish they had more time on news outlets, but they don't because it's three to five minute.
	Not hit pieces.
	Three to five minute hits and then done.
	It's even worse.
	They're not in jail.
	They're in remand.
	They don't even have the rights of prisoners because they haven't been tried or convicted two years in.
	I just wish there was more time to get all of the information out there.
	All right, I'm going to the chat in Castro's son.
	Look it up, says inventor investor.
	Let's see what he got.
	No one can afford to build, says Jules Verne 23. And what did I just do here?
	Can you imagine what's going on?
	We're not talking about happening in Canada as though it's not extremely relevant to what we know is happening in the States.
	This is the day where there's basically a showdown.
	I don't want to use the word civil war because it carries with it immense connotations, implications.
	But what do you call it when you have 25 states banding together to fight the federal?
	That is allowing an unlawful, illegal invasion of a country.
	I mean, what do you call it?
	It's like a cold civil war?
	Cold, but with the risk of getting hot and not hot in a good way?
	You've got Texas having the federal government come in and basically force open their border to illegal invasion.
	You've got 25 states.
	Now saying we stand with Texas as the government, the Biden administration, basically is moving towards a hot conflict with the states.
	I mean, what do you call it?
	People call it a national divorce.
	I don't know what other word there is for it.
	Oh, my dog just made a little noise there.
	So that's what else is going on in the news.
	I did a podcast with Dr. Malik this morning.
	I get to call him Ahmed now, but Dr. Malik is going to come out next week, so stay tuned for that.
	And hold on, we'll do one more thing here.
	I'm going to play this for everybody.
	The irony is that this video never went viral.
	Viva Frye, viral video, no pauses.
	We're going to end on this.
	People can have a good laugh as over.
	sad music
	Okay, everybody, I'm going to hit the...
	It's going to go to local supporters only.
	That's the way Rumble has set it up now.
	I've lined up that last story.
	We're going to play ourselves out with that.
	And I think we've covered the biggest stuff of the news as of now.
	But, hold on.
	Yes, this was the lighthearted story.
	And I'm going to reiterate my prediction.
	Hold on, hold on, wait for it.
	Let me get this here.
	There's only one explanation for this type of...
	Oh my God, it's not boot-looking, it's ass-kissing of a grown man to other grown men who are incompetent, or grown men and women who are incompetent and utterly detestable.
	Hold on.
	Bring it up here.
	Okay.
	Gonna get better at navigating the backstage here.
	Look, check this out.
	Check this out.
	And I'm glad to be here in South Carolina.
	no Biden could not be president of the United States except for what happened out here.
	In fact, the first three years of Biden-Harris administration, 14 Understand what's happening here The most Hispanic unemployment, the lowest unemployment for women in the last 70 years It's a key money in a post-Jobs worldwide progress and programs that are overwhelmingly popular across the spectrum They passed the most significant jobs program since FDOT Let's get to the
	ball, let's vote, and let's vote to re-elect Joe Biden and Kamala Harris for more news applause We just saw a 47 second promotional video for Joe Biden and Kamala Harris.
	I almost want to mispronounce her name on purpose so that white knight Gavin Newsom comes to her defense.
	Viva Frye!
	Her name is Kamala, not Kamala.
	How dare you?
	Shame on you, Viva.
	That was a video that Gavin Newsom put out, but it's the caption for the video that is the most interesting thing.
	Look at this.
	South Carolina is fired up and ready to vote for Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, and you got a 47-second video with nobody except Gavin Newsom.
	Neither Kamala Harris nor Joe Biden.
	Why?
	because Joe Biden is a demented, decrepit, physically and mentally incapable skeleton who's occupying the position of the White House and being used as a puppet that he is.
	He can't tour.
	Kamala Harris can't string together a sentence without producing a video clip that goes viral to illustrate that in as much as space and time are empty and endless, so is Kamala Harris's brain.
	So you got Gavin Newsom, and you want to talk about used car salesmen.
	Gavin Newsom is the American psycho of used car salesmen running out, campaigning for Kamala Harris and Joe Biden.
	In my tweet to that I made as a joke, you know, he's hoping to be Kamala's VP.
	I stand by my original prediction from a long time ago.
	It will not be Biden, and this right here is Gavin Newsom, basically, like, hey.
	Can I get it yet?
	Remember all the nice things I did for you when Joe Biden, for whatever the reason, doesn't run, withdraws, pulls out, gets indicted, whatever?
	Any number of a few things are going to happen.
	Father time, health issues, voluntarily withdrawing, or disclosure of something so compromising, so damning, so thoroughly corrupt that it resulted in an impeachment that even the Dems have to go along with.
	And they're going to need someone to fill it in.
	It's not going to be Kamala Harris.
	She'll get some cushy, ego-supporting nomination to go somewhere.
	And it will either be Gavin Newsom or Michelle Obama.
	And I'm less inclined now to think it's going to be Michelle Obama.
	So I think it's going to be Gavin.
	But there's only one thing that can possibly explain such...
	Oh, invigorating.
	Such passionate ass-kissing from Gavin Newsom.
	Shameless ass-kissing.
	Can you imagine being a grown man out there stumping for a demented old man who can't string together a coherent sentence and an idiot who can't string together a coherent sentence?
	There's no other explanation for it.
	That's the laugh.
	And I'm going to go look at the chat before we play us out.
	To vivabarneslaw.locals.com for the support.
	It's only where we're going to have our after party, take questions, and have a little fun.
	What else is coming up in the coming days?
	Sunday night show is coming up tomorrow, Saturday, so probably no show, but who knows?
	I can't resist.
	And that's it.
	Thank you all for being here.
	Snip, clip, and share away.
	I remember at the one-hour mark of the interview, the summary part is a good clip to share, but I'll go through it, and I'm going to snip and clip because...
	Everybody needs to know what's going on.
	It's like, you look back at 9-11, you're like, how did they not pick up on...
	It doesn't matter where they were from, but people who were wanting to learn how to fly a plane, but not land or take off.
	People buying one-way tickets on first class.
	And for all of the security failures that allowed 9-11 to happen, to think that what's going on right now is not...
	Rhyming with that.
	And actually, I'll end it with it.
	It's my position that I've still got questions for what happened in Israel on October 7th.
	I don't care if people find that offensive to say I've got questions, but I've got questions.
	And I've got not theories like out there tinfoil hat conspiracy theories.
	Someone said it was either the biggest security lapse In Israel's history, which it was, or it was something even more nefarious.
	So it's one of those damned if you do, damned if you don't, because the only non-nefarious explanation for it is the most monumental, catastrophic intelligence failure in the country's history.
	My position on that would be I would not empower the people who were at the helm of the catastrophic intelligence failure to dictate and carry out the proper response, but set that aside.
	What could account for that catastrophic intelligence failure?
	Well, it wasn't like Bibi and his buddies were not warned of potential weaknesses in security weeks before October 7. I showed you that 60 Minutes interview.
	Let me see if I can just find it real quick.
	Google Viva Frye tweet 60 Minutes Netanyahu.
	Let me see if I can find it very quickly.
	Here we go.
	I think this is it.
	Yeah, this is it right here.
	Boom shakalaka.
	60 Minutes reporting three weeks prior to the attack.
	Well, you've got such political turmoil in your country that it's a security risk.
	It's on video.
	It's never going to not be there for those who know it exists.
	The fight over the court has brought the country to a cold civil war.
	In July...
	The first step of Levine's judicial overhaul passed, severely limiting the court's power to strike down government decisions.
	A cold civil war.
	Some 10,000 military reservists were so upset, they pledged to stop showing up for duty.
	Does that sound familiar?
	In light of the first hour of this, does that sound familiar?
	They made their decision to stop showing up for duty.
	Stop showing up for duty.
	Air Marshals resigning because they don't want to do this shit, this politicized bullshit.
	Made their decision, many brothers and sisters in arms came to tears.
	It was the hardest things to do.
	When you are in your DNA, our soldier, this is what I do.
	25 years, it's in my blood.
	It's like to cut a hand.
	The military has warned that losing so many pilots and high-ranking reservists This was three weeks before October 7. Listen to the answer from the government.
	But several former heads of the military and Mossad support the protest.
	It sounds like Leslie Stahl has actually somewhat slowed down her audio.
	It drives me nuts to listen to someone talk so slowly, but sorry.
	Israel was at risk because of so many reservists leaving.
	They might have found out.
	Could you step back and withdraw your proposals?
	What's the price of democracy?
	What are you suggesting me to do?
	We'll tell the Israeli citizens, okay, don't go to vote.
	There's no need to hold elections.
	We'll come to those ex-militarists.
	And we'll ask them what we are allowed to do or not.
	Millet Reservists not showing up to work, resigning, creating potential risks.
	And what are we witnessing right now?
	I just saw this $20 super chat come in, Rumble Rants, and it says, it's from Inventor Investor, says the deep state establishment, DC Swamp, and their propaganda arm, the fake news.
	Here's the link to that tweet.
	And so, you know...
	Catastrophic intelligence failures seem to happen more frequently when a country is in political disarray, when a country has been politicized and weaponized, when the institutions that were intended to provide security have been weaponized and politicized to the point where they are either A, not focusing on the real threats, or B, driving out the good people because of how politicized they've become.
	The end result is the same.
	You don't have the force that you need to provide the protection you need.
	The ones that are in charge are corrupt, politically motivated, and have their eyes on another bull.
	So that's that.
	Now, I said we're going to end this stream on something that's not going to cause high blood pressure and make us smile.
