Echo Check? 00:05:57
Gentlemen of the interwebs, I'm playing a random video for the intro today because I need to make sure that there's no echo because I don't have my headphones with me in El Salvador and because I want to make sure that the internet is of sufficient speed to actually have a stream today.
But I present to you something that is outright, objectively, and egregiously funny.
Let me know if you hear an echo before we enter the rest of this show.
BEHOLD.
Oh yeah No no no, Take me.
AHH Little bastards, AHH.
His name is Jubby.
Oh, that's Jubby.
Yeah, that's a good dog.
You see, there you go.
You've determined which dog is the good dog.
What a little, little bastards.
All right, people.
Uh, before we even get into the show, let me know.
I'm going to go into the chat and make sure that everything's okay.
In San Salvador, El Salvador, witnessing how a country can be turned around in a matter of what, five, seven years.
I mean, sure, all it took is a declaration of martial law and mass arrests.
The country has been turned around.
I remember back in the day, let me make sure that we were live on vivabarneslaw.locals.com and uh rumble.
Oh, hold on.
I forgot to give uh, let me let me do one thing here.
Bada bing, bada, boom.
Yeah, this was a short notice off stream time.
Uh, let me just do one thing here.
Hold up.
Okay.
Yeah, I'm off stream.
I had my um earlier show, but it was just a half hour because I'm at the Bitcoin conference and I was interviewing a guy, Eric.
Uh, oh, now I forgot his last name.
Very interesting, very interesting guy.
It was a 30-minute interview.
Go check it out.
But let me see.
So, we yes, why is Trump being said?
Okay, I'm not.
Let me just make sure that we're all good.
Nobody hears an echo if I play a video because I want to play a bunch of videos and I don't want to hear an echo.
If I go, for example, and play this video, ladies and gentlemen, for those of you who have been around, so audio is good and there's no echo.
Let me make sure we're live on vivabarnslaw.locals.com.
We're live on Rumble and Booyaka Shah.
All right, let's do this.
Viva, I'm sorry, I am in Oregon.
Could you tell me what time it is?
Okay, so I'm in El Salvador, just before we get into anything at the Bitcoin conference with Rumble because we, you know, Tether has an interest now in Rumble.
They've, you know, implemented the Rumble wallet, crypto tipping, all sorts of wonderful stuff on Rumble.
So we're down here attending the Bitcoin conference.
I was at Lugano in Switzerland, and it was kind of amazing.
San Salvador, I'm going to go into more detail later on in the show.
It's kind of amazing how you can turn a country around in no time at all when you lock up criminals.
Now, it requires a declaration of martial law.
It requires the unfortunate reality that innocent people get swept up sometimes with the actual criminals.
I'm going to get into my deep thoughts on that later on.
But gold and silver taking a dive.
Yeah, only because they were up 300% in the last three months or five months, whatever, two years.
Crazy.
But today's been an interesting day.
Peter Schiff was on stage talking when I was leaving to come back to the hotel, talking about, you know, yeah, it's a massive, massive drop of 35% on silver and a little bit less on gold.
But my goodness, that's what happens when it goes up like a cryptocurrency.
I was sending the screenshot of Silver's Silver's performance to my father just because it was the craziest thing ever.
And I was saying, this graph looks like Bitcoin.
Look at this graph of silver.
Like that's crypto type growth.
So it's now back to, you know, roughly, where's my fat finger here?
It's now roughly back down to a little bit there, about 85.
But come on.
A, people are going to take their profits and run.
And understandably so.
And B, there might be other forces out there at play that want to kill the precious metals market to the fiat for whatever the reason.
But we'll get there.
Okay, everything's good.
Time to have more silver and gold then.
Well, Bitcoin's down also.
Oh, Bitcoin's down to 82,000 if you have money.
It's one heck of a time to do it.
Okay, so we are all very good here.
China markets open soon and it's going to pump again.
Look, the reality is silver hitting $119, $120 an ounce.
Operation Surprise 00:16:26
When Tim Poole told me that last Monday, I'm like, that's impossible.
That's wild.
It's about time my theory has been.
I don't share my theories because by and large, I know nothing about investing.
I never understood why silver was so much less precious than gold, you know, respectfully to each other or in respect of one another.
It is kind of cool that it's sort of catching up at a prorated value, but it's kind of wild.
People are talking about silver now.
Silver inventory on Comx is 430 million ounces, while the March future contracts are 540, not enough inventory.
I don't understand a word you just said.
I'm joking.
All right.
So, people, it always happens.
I go somewhere where I'm going to be impeded from doing my daily live stream, and all hell breaks loose in the news.
The news of the day is Stinky Fingers Don Lamont has been arrested.
This was after a failed attempt to arrest him, which resulted in a magistrate not signing off on the warrant because they didn't find probable cause.
Robert Barnes doesn't even believe that Don Lamon should be charged, and certainly not on the basis of the charging documents that were submitted to the judge the last time.
I personally, in my humble opinion, and I, you know, I'll defer to the opinions of the bigger brains of people who actually practice law in America.
That doesn't mean I'm not going to say, I've heard what you have to say, and I'm going to choose to believe my own eyes.
I believe Don Lamont should have been charged.
I believe that what Don Laman did was a crime on video.
I'll present to you that argument today before we get into the news of his arrest, because he has finally been arrested.
There are some people on the internet saying, oh, Viva and Barnes now have to eat crow.
Pam Bonnet finally got somebody arrested.
And these are respectful discussions and respectful disagreements.
And I will needly, humorously needle people who make such absurd arguments.
Congrats.
If this is the notch in Pam Bondi's belt or hat, whatever the hell the expression is, the feather in her cap, the notch in her belt, that they finally secured charges against Don Lamon, who literally broadcast what I believe to be a crime to the world after having failed to do it the first time.
I said this a while back.
There is reforming a corrupt enterprise, and the FBI and the DOJ under Biden's Autopenn presidency was thoroughly corrupt.
It needs to be reformed.
There is reform and then there's administration.
There is reform and there is day-to-day management.
Arresting somebody who, a year into the administration, in my view, commits a crime on camera is not reform.
You don't get to say, hallelujah, we arrested Don Lemon a year into the administration after he quite literally harassed and participated in the harassment of Christians who were worshiping, quite literally interfered with the church.
You don't get to say, eat crow black pillars.
What you get to say is, congratulations on doing your freaking job.
Now, how about that reform?
That being said, to anybody who says that to me, whoopty freaking do.
She got the arrest on the second time around.
Good.
That's called, you know, doing your job.
At some point in time, you don't take a victory lap every time you successfully do what it is you were hired to do.
They got it.
And you know what?
We'll start with the story first, or at least the headline.
Then we're going to flash back to the actual elements of criminality and the meltdown that the left is having as a result of this.
They say unprecedented.
Unprecedented Don Lamon, a journalist, is arrested in Donald Trump's America.
He's the next Bukeley rounding up and arresting.
Holy hell, you people are idiots.
Anybody saying that is an idiot.
I'm going to not even weigh my words here.
If you use the word unprecedented to qualify the arrest of stinky fingers, Don Lamon, you are an idiot.
You are either stupid, you are either a liar, or you are a perfect combination of both stupid and a liar.
A, there is nothing unprecedented about arresting Don Lamon, even if a slew of other journalists hadn't been arrested, harassed before Don Lamon.
There would be nothing unprecedented about it on its face because he literally posted video of him in the process of committing a crime, in my view.
Maybe he's got defenses and maybe they will be successful.
Maybe he'll find a judge that will toss these charges.
Maybe he'll find a jury that will nullify these charges.
Wouldn't be the first time.
Anybody saying it's unprecedented is a dumb lying moron.
And they should know that.
They should look in the mirror and they should say, I'm a dumb lying moron.
But my goodness, at least I like looking at myself in the mirror.
Don Lamon arrested by federal authorities after protested in Minnesota church services.
Attorney General Pam Bonte said in a Friday post on X that Lamon was arrested alongside three others, quote, in connection with the coordinated attack on Cities Church in St. Paul, Minnesota.
Notice the terminology, by the way.
That might arguably be a little bit better than the terminology they didn't use in the last charging documents when a judge said, you didn't even allege enough for me to arrest him.
You got to bear with me with that audio thing there.
Laman 59 was taken into custody by federal agents in Los Angeles, where he was covering the Grammy Awards.
His attorney, Abby Lowell, who's popped his face up again, said in a statement, Attorney General Pan Bonte said on Friday, X post that Laman was arrested alongside three others, yada yada yada.
Details of the charges against the four were not immediately available.
I was looking for the PDF of the arresting documents to see what they alleged to amplify what was clearly lacking from the last time they presented whatever, the affidavit for probable cause, whatever.
We'll get to it when we get to it.
But I suspect they were a little more fleshed out in the allegations of how Don Lamon actively participated, not just as a journalist, but actively participated in a conspiracy to knowingly, deliberately, and predictably interfere and intimidate churchgoers.
We'll get there.
However, the Justice Department promised to pursue charges against Lamon after the journalist covered the protests at the church on January 18th.
Instead of investigating the federal agents who killed two peaceful Minnesota protesters, the Trump Justice Department is devoting its time, attention, resources to this arrest.
And that is the real indictment of wrongdoing in this case, Lowell said.
Shut your stupid face, Abby Lowell.
We'll get into the cases that he's been into in a second.
And if I don't remember to, remind me.
Partisan hackery.
And he's too smart to be dumb.
So he can only be a liar, like 96.7% of all lawyers out there.
This unprecedented attack on the First Amendment and transparent attempt to distract attention from many crises facing this administration will not stand.
Unprecedented.
Abby Lowell, you're too smart to call yourself an idiot.
So you are just a liar.
Don will fart these charges vigorously and throw out the court.
Yadia.
LeMond's representative, and a representative for his husband, did not immediately return a request.
LeMond's arrest is the latest development in the federal immigration crackdown in Indianapolis, in which two citizens have been...
Do you see the framing here?
Don Lamon was arrested for interfering with church services, conspiring to and knowingly, as I will present evidence, having intimidated churchgoers to feel that they can no longer remain in the church to attend the services that they were there to attend.
Three people who disrupted, oh, disrupted the same church.
One person's disruption is another person's intimidation.
One person's terrorizing is another person's disruption.
Three other people were arrested.
Demonstrators gathered at the services because its pastor allegedly works for immigration ICE.
All right, that's the bare bones of what's going on.
Now, you want to know why I think that Don Lamond should have been charged, that the allegations were there, the evidence to support the charges were there.
Don't take my word for it, people.
Take Don Lamont's words for it.
When he went there and he literally, and I mean quite literally, announced that he was going to interrupt church services and was participating in a conspiracy to do so.
This is an element, the piece of evidence that I would posit to you indicates that he knew the churchgoers were intimidated.
And then the only question is going to be whether or not he bears the responsibility for that intimidation.
When we're talking about the requisite acts for KKK law violation or a FACE Act violation, intimidation is one of the criteria, or at least one of the considerations.
Listen to this.
Acknowledgement that they were intimidated.
Terrorized almost.
Watch this guy here.
Looks hugging his kid.
And, you know, I imagine it's uncomfortable and traumatic for the people here.
But again, careful.
It's very slippery right here.
It's uncomfortable and traumatic for the people here, but that's what really, careful, please.
Really slippery.
Not kidding.
That's what protesting is about.
And so.
Uncomfortable and traumatic.
That is what protesting is all about.
That's also what documenting your own criminality is all about.
But again, don't take my word for it.
Take Don Lamon's word for it.
I was going to start the show with this as a joke because it would have been my golf voice intro, but it would have actually been from the episode where I played this.
But listen to Don Lamon talk about it himself.
I've been on the channel for long enough.
You know the probably realize this in operation that he only now probably realizes in retrospect he posted evidence of a crime.
Behold this is an operation that is secret that they invited folks out.
This is Operation Pullout, more of a clandestine operation.
We show up somewhere.
They don't expect us to come there.
And then we disrupt business as usual.
Then we disrupt business as usual, people, after terrifying and terrorizing the people at the church to leave the church.
But don't worry.
There's more.
And if you had any doubts about his intent behind what he did, I present to you the man himself.
Don Lamon.
Eric Daughtry posting this earlier.
Listen to what Don Lemon says right here.
And then you try to argue that he was just there acting as a journalist.
And it would be unprecedented that a journalist should get arrested.
I'll get back to that in a second.
Listen to what Don Lamont says right here.
Into Minneapolis a little bit ago and did some reconnaissance on the ground.
I did some reconnaissance on the ground.
Let me just play that again in case you missed it because it's almost like I feel like I'm taking crazy pills.
Maybe they went in and amplified the allegations against Don Lamont.
He is on camera saying that he did some reconnaissance on the ground as part of his conspiracy to intimidate and disrupt church services.
Some reconnaissance.
It did some and did some reconnaissance on the ground.
I'm speaking to an organization there that's gearing up for resistance and protests.
I did some reconnaissance on the ground.
Almost like I'm aiding and abetting in domestic terrorism of sorts.
I've been surprised, pleasantly surprised to see the community coming together.
Diverse community, if you see this when we first pulled up, we're like, wait a minute, which operation are we at?
And as it turns out, because we're like, well, this is kind of MAGA-coded, right?
Saw the American flag or whatever, but these are resistance protesters.
They're planning an operation that we're going to follow them on.
Resistance is the new word for domestic terrorists.
And he helped to do some reconnaissance for them.
So good for you, Don.
That's definitely not incriminating.
I can't tell you exactly what they're doing, but it's called Operation Pull Up.
And it's Takeima Armstrong.
And she has been doing this since George Floyd, Dante Wright, and others, where they surprise people, catch them off guard, and hold them to account.
And so that's what we're doing here.
And then we're...
Catch them off guard and hold them to account.
Almost sounds like forcible confinement, but I will not get lawyery.
That after we do this operation, you'll see it live.
And these operations are surprise operations.
Again, can't tell you where they're.
After we do this operation, we can't tell you about this operation until it's done.
After we do this operation, we're doing it live.
Oh, but I'm just documenting it.
After I do a little recon for them, after they invite me, after we document it, I will tell you about it after we do it because it's going to be live.
And I'm just a journalist doing recon for domestic terrorists who are targeting churches.
And if you had any doubt as to the intent of Stinky Fingers Don Lamont, I mean, this ordinarily, if this were done to a black church by a group of white protesters, if this were done to a synagogue, it would be a hate crime.
Not in Minnesota.
But if you had any doubts as to the intentions of Don Lamont in doing recon for a resistance group that was targeting church services, look no further than whatever her name is, Wench on the left, and Don Lamont himself.
And there's a certain degree of entitlement.
I think people who are, you know, in religious groups like that, it's not the type of Christianity that I practice, but I think that they're entitled and that that entitlement comes from a supremacy, a white supremacy.
And they think that this country was built for them, that it is a Christian country when actually we left England because we wanted religious freedom.
It's religious freedom, but only if you're a Christian and only if you're a white male, pretty much.
And so, yeah, absolutely 100%, but it's an intimidation tactic.
And, you know, I said, I don't understand how I become the face of it when I was a journalist.
I do understand that I'm the biggest name there.
I'm the biggest name there.
Can you imagine the ego of all of this?
Like, this is what he, this is what he needed for self-validation.
I'm the biggest name.
You're the face of it because you're the idiot that thought.
Oh, by the way, the other guy's the face of it too, the one with the beard who also got arrested because he also live streamed his own criminality.
You're the face of it because you are so stupid.
You actually post it to the public while narrating in real time all of the elements of the crime in which you were participating.
But no, it's racism, Don.
And I'm also, as I was on with my producers this morning, you know, you and Kylie talk all the time.
My producers were saying, I said, how did I become the face of this?
And my producer said, Don, you're a gay black man in America.
And there's a certain degree.
Can you imagine that?
It's a yeah, they're going after him because he's a gay black man.
I never would have known he was gay if he didn't talk about it all the time.
I guess I would have known he was black, although I do believe he has some European blood on his mother's lineage.
He's the face of it because he's a gay black man and not because he documented storming a church to interfere with one of the most sacred rites in all of humankind, the right to worship in peace.
Racism.
But now, because this is a dog whistle, I forget what those birds are that all flock together and then, you know, they change directions together.
And the question is, is there a leader?
Do they communicate with each other or do they just read off each other in real time as they do it?
Is it like coordinated or is it just follow the leader?
Racism.
The amount of people coming out now and claiming that this is racist, unprecedented, dumb liars, racist, dumb liars who are blinded by their own racial animosity.
Listen to Eli Mistow.
Listen to this.
It is an expression of white supremacy.
Expression Of White Supremacy 00:06:53
And so when I look for constitutional justification for these arrests, it's obviously not in the Constitution.
It's obviously not, well, it's obviously not in the Constitution anymore.
Because there was something in the original Constitution that would have allowed them to arrest a black journalist like Don Lemon.
And that was called the fugitive slave clause in Article 4 of the original Constitution, which allowed the government to reclaim escaped property, should that property have successfully made it to a free state.
I think they had a common law criminal code that would have allowed anybody, white, black, Jew, Muslim, Christian, whomever, to be arrested if they broke the law.
This is the soft bigotry of low expectations, which is just bigotry, coming from prominent members, so-called prominent members of the black community.
Arrest a black man and its racism, white supremacy.
Are many other laws on the books that authorize this arrest?
Other than that, what you just said, Eli, is the stupidest thing I've ever heard.
Everyone in the room is now dumber for having watched it.
Everyone in the room is now dumber for having listened to your words.
It's racism.
It's slavery to arrest a black man who has committed a crime, allegedly.
It gets worse, though.
And if you have sensitive ears to the N-word, earmuffs.
This is Cornell West.
I can't even summarize this.
I'm just going to play about 30 seconds of this.
Now, I come from people who have been demonized and vilified and terrorized for 250 years in the American experiment.
That's what it is to niggerize a dignified black people.
Make sure that they are intimidated, terrified, full of fear, and not able to straighten their backs up.
But thank God, the Black Freedom Movement straightens our backs up.
Well, what we're witnessing, and this is why the larger picture is important here.
We're at a, we're right on the edge cliff in terms of the possibility of America sustaining itself as a social experiment in the best sense of just becoming an empire full of might and force.
So when you niggerize a whole country, you start treating all of your citizens the way black folk have been treated for 250 years.
Look at that.
She's like, oh, this, this, this makes sense.
This speaks to me.
This literally makes no sense.
To terrorize the population, the way he's arguing the black population uniquely has been terrorized over the last 250 years.
The term that he gave it literally makes no sense, even if that's what he was arguing for.
Arguing that the shooting of Renee Good and Alex Predi is a form of terrorism.
It should strike fear in the hearts of people who want to act stupid in front of armed law enforcement, interfere with the enforcement of federal law and create dangerous situations that escalate out of control.
Awful.
And I'm not one of the ones who say, you know, make any lighthearted jokes about anybody getting what they deserve.
There is a difference between getting what you predictably put yourself in a situation to get versus getting what you deserve.
Sometimes people get a whole hell of a lot more than what they deserved, but it's nonetheless entirely predictable under the circumstances that they put themselves in.
Racism.
Terrorism.
Because the unprecedented move to arrest a journalist, bringing it right back to the beginning.
Journalists that they have arrested or terrorized under the Biden administration.
Steve Baker.
Now I'm going to forget the Horn.
Stephen Horn arrested for literally doing nonviolent journalism, not participating, not conspiring on January 6th.
James O'Keefe, raided, phone seized, terrorized, and a slew of others.
Nick Shirley, demonized, threatened.
Nick Sortor, assaulted.
I just had him on the other day talking about what happened to him in Minnesota.
That wasn't state-sanctioned.
That was just the brown coats of the state doing the state's work to terrorize journalists, not to document what's going on in Minnesota.
Unprecedented, unprecedented bullcrap.
What's unprecedented is that it finally took a so-called journalist literally committing a crime on camera the second time around finally getting arrested.
Whereas bona fide journalists who never broke the law, never partook in criminality, were brutalized, terrorized, threatened, intimidated, assaulted under the Biden administration, and all of these idiots crying racism and crying boo who didn't say boo when it happened.
And you want to go ahead and get the stupidest takes you can possibly imagine.
Do not worry.
I'm not going to put you through three minutes of listening to TMZ for political insight, let alone factually tenable assertions.
Listen to this moron.
You want, you know, viral videos of the day of people in compromising positions.
That's what TMZ is good for.
Good for political analysis based on real facts and real knowledge?
Not so much.
So the Trump administration wonders why people are saying that they are trying to form a dictatorship.
Well, look at the landscape.
Arresting Don Lemon, who covered a protest in Minneapolis, is just insane, ridiculous, dictator-like.
This is the playbook that dictators use to destroy democracies and take the will of the people away.
It is as simple as that.
The First Amendment is the First Amendment for a reason.
It is considered the preferred amendment when you have to start balancing what's more important to this guy.
The framework is not the Constitution anymore.
But yeah, it's unbelievable when you don't know the basic facts of what happened.
And I've laid it out for you now.
You have Don Lamon's acts, statements, consequences of his acts and statements, and the idiots, hypocrites, liars, and losers on the internet crying foul as though he's the victim.
And now you know better.
Now, before we get into anything, let me double check what's going on on vivabarnslaw.locals.com.
Special Operations 2011 00:04:35
I think I see our guest.
Did I mention that I'm going to have on Ivan Rakelin?
We're going over the Brian Cole hearing that was yesterday.
He's going to be on in a few seconds.
This is why the media is the enemy, says Mighty Pe.
He went to intimidate.
He said it on camera.
Dumbass, says JBACH.
No, that says Jay Batch.
My apologies.
Then we got that's from Barbie, the movie, which was kind of.
All right, I get it.
Democrats were organized into a conspiracy to obstruction of justice.
This is a crime.
Everyone from payments to foot soldiers should be in jail.
Well, we'll see about that.
Ivan, sir.
How goes the battle?
Well, well, well.
You're the marauder?
You're the deep state marauder, or are you the something of retribution?
Well, I have an entire department behind me here, and I'm at Department of Retribution global headquarters.
Well, I might be a separate retribution.
Okay, the Department of Retribution, Ivan, everybody knows you, but just in case, for those who are watching, remind us as to who you are.
For the two new people listening in.
Other than the jovial, joking, unserious, serious deep state marauder, Secretary of Retribution, I am a retired Lieutenant Colonel Green Beret, Intel officer and former military diplomat, if you will, spanning five continents, five languages.
Je pou parlon pour le français au si, monsieur fray.
Merveir, merveir.
Sevre.
Ivan, do you speak, do you speak Spanish?
Si, hablo español.
Oh, that's right.
Now I forgot about the text.
Well, I don't know what's public.
Creo que estása en el Salvador ahora in San Salvador.
I don't speak.
I mean, the only Spanish I know or I understand is that which is the same word in French.
No, so I spent about Six, eight months, maybe.
And I'd have to look at my calendar.
Eight or nine months, I was down in El Salvador training their special tier one special operations units to go ahead and conduct counter drug, counter, let's just say, counter-threat operations in 2011-2012 in just outside of San Salvador.
And I operate, I was there with their counter-terrorism unit known as SEAT, Comando de Lejercito Anti-Terrorista.
Were you which is their tier one unit?
It's the equivalent of Special Forces Operational Detachment Delta in the United States.
Also worked with their Grupo de Operaciones Especiales, which is equivalent.
I don't know, it's like Rangers in the United States.
And then they also had an airborne unit there, but the entire command was called the Comando de Fuerzas Especiales, the Special Forces Command.
Yeah.
El Salvador.
Were you in El Salvador when you were doing that in 2011?
Yes.
Dude, okay, so do you got to tell me what it is?
I have a very eclectic background.
Well, have you been back since Bukele brought Law and Order here?
No, I would actually like to, I would be happy to go down there and do a full in-depth, you know, hour, two-hour interview in Spanish with him if he would entertain it.
And from the perspective of, you know, former Green Beret spent some time in his country.
I'm sure I could probably reconnect with the former commanders that are probably very senior leaders in the military right now if they're still in.
That could vouch for me.
That's wild.
No, that's amazing.
I mean, because I've never been here.
I would have never in a million years ever thought I'd go to El Salvador because I want to see what the intentional homicide rate was back when I used to look up, you know, just to see what the between El Salvador and Honduras, which also spent when I was down there in Central America, I spent about a month in Honduras, probably the murder capital of the world.
Yeah, I'm going to say this.
What was the intentional homicide rate in El Salvador in 2011?
I bet you it was like 75 per 100,000.
Yeah, I remember without incriminating myself in anything.
I remember rolling around the street fully protected.
No, dude, it was 70 to 71 per 100,000, according to reliable sources, back in 2011.
Five Lawyers Talk Kara 00:07:14
I mean, that's it's people cannot understand what that is.
It's like I was in Compton when I was down there.
You could hear it in the probably would have been safer.
Pretty much every day.
That is absolutely wild.
Ivan, do me a favor.
I'm neurotic.
Tilt your computer screen backwards so it doesn't cut off the bottom of the.
Do you need to look at your computer screen?
Oh, do you see it?
There you go.
Yeah, that's perfect.
I couldn't see it from my vantage point.
Oh, I got it now.
That's much better.
Ivan, you were at the Brian Cole Jr. hearing yesterday.
That was an hour and a half.
And I posted Cara Castanueva's summary of this.
Castranova, yeah.
Castranova, I'm screwing up names and cities today.
Tell us what happened.
This was supposed to be what was the purpose of this hearing again?
This is to determine whether or not they release him on bail.
Yeah, so there were two parts to the hearing.
Let me preface it with this: that Cara Castranova does a fantastic job explaining the details of it.
She also, I think, later today is going to publish the interview that her and I did essentially.
It was about 45 minutes, 50 minutes, going in detail, comparing notes of what she recalls and what I recall.
But in general, the first part of the hearing was, well, let me back up before we go into the hearing.
I want to set the stage.
We got a couple minutes, right?
Oh, yeah, yeah, please.
So going to the courthouse, sixth floor, I think, was it courtroom 19 for Judge Ali, and you can see in the hallway that the family, once again, was trickling in.
And this was the first instance, because at this point, this was the third instance where I attended a hearing and they recognized my face and were actually very friendly.
What that does to me in my analysis of the totality of the cases is if you run from me, that means you have something to hide.
As we see when I confront folks in a very diplomatic fashion asking questions, they go apoplectic because they have something to hide or cover up.
But when somebody is very open and interacting with me, even after I tell them this is who I am, then odds are they're probably not worried about their lot in life, if you will.
So the first person I engaged with was the, there's a person that comes in and draws professionally.
You see it because you can't have Pameras in there.
And it usually was a gentleman a couple of years back that attended all these different hearings.
Apparently he passed away a couple years ago.
I can't remember his name, but there was a newer lady that has been doing this for decades.
I hadn't seen her.
She was there and interacting and being open and transparent, if you will.
There you go.
Yeah.
So she's probably the one.
That's probably her work product because she told me that it was CBS, I think, hired her out.
She's just an independent contractor.
She really doesn't have, I don't think, any political.
I mean, I'm sure she has her political leanings, but she's not a zealot, right?
So she's just there to draw and capture the essence of the courtroom.
And during that period of time, as we're waiting to go into the courtroom, we had the family.
The grandmother talked to me, talked to Kara, was out there as well, and talked to some other folks.
And they just said, thank you for being here and supporting our son or whatever the relative, whatever the relationship that they had, whether it's mother to son, father to son.
And at this time, the father didn't speak with me, but you could tell, you know, he acknowledged me and it was a friendly kind of nod, right?
As opposed to in the past, very, very standoffish, the family.
So I just want to set the stage, right?
And so we enter the courtroom, and that it was maybe 10 minutes prior to the hearing start time.
And obviously, our beloved governmental lawyer, the governmental team, our favorite Jocelyn Ballanty, and her little lackey, Charles, I don't know, you have the name in front of you.
Let me see if I can.
No, let me see.
I remember why I had an announcement right here.
Charles Robert Jones was the one that spoke at the hearing, but Jocelyn S. Ballantyne, for those wanting to look her up through, you know, different databases, it's Jocelyn S. Ballantyne, B-A-L-L-A-N-T-I-N-E.
She had quite a bit to say to the defense team, which, by the way, tell riddle me this.
I get it that I have, I think I have five lawyers representing me, but it's five different cases.
Okay.
This gentleman, Mr. Brian Cole, has five attorneys from a law firm representing him just on this case alone and support staff that was sitting right in front of me.
Charles Robert Jones, or excuse me, I already said that.
I have a list.
Hold on.
Brian Cole himself, as a defendant, has five lawyers involved in this file.
Yes, John M. Shoreman, Mario Bernard Williams, John Ross Glover, Joseph Alex Little, and Zachary Carter Lawson.
Now, do you like having been in the practice?
Sometimes the senior partners bring interns or low-level lawyers so they can get the experience.
So they're not necessarily billing for five lawyers.
What were all their positions?
Are they senior or a couple of them juniors?
They look pretty senior to me.
Several of them, not just one.
So I don't know what to say other than that's probably fairly costly.
And so you have to factor that into your hypothesis generation of the totality of what's going on.
Wouldn't you agree?
Yeah, yeah.
I mean, maybe, you know, this is a high-profile case.
It's good publicity.
So they can use it to, you know, market the firm, whatever.
Maybe go through papers or connections.
But okay, so he's got five lawyers on his side.
So at least, and also optics.
Now it looks like he's battling the government and taking it seriously.
Jocelyn Ballantyne and the other guy.
Yeah, before the hearing starts, they're going back and forth.
It's not within my earshot.
They were talking loud enough that I could tell they were saying something.
I could pull out a word or two, but it was quiet enough that I couldn't pick up on it.
But that was the only time that she was interacting and made any sounds, if you will, emanating from her vocal cord.
All right.
So then we move into the hearing.
Two parts.
First part was essentially scheduling on when they should have pre-trial and figure out the calendars.
And that's going to be February 27th at, I believe, 10:30 a.m. is the next hearing for kind of administrative, if you will.
But then it quickly moved into the case made by defense and then the government and then back to the rebuttal by the defense team on why he should be released pre-trial.
So it was a detention hearing, right?
Senate Leadership's Role 00:14:52
And in that, I think the biggest thing that stuck out for me, which I talked about with Kara, was that the defense laid out their strategy for discovery, okay?
One of the components.
And one of the things that stood out for me is that they're trying to get Brady material as it relates to this from the intelligence community that they have related to ping data, et cetera, on the device that was at the DNC and the RNC as potentially exculpatory to their client.
I would tend to agree with that.
And when they say interagency, the thing that comes to my mind immediately that may not stick out for others because I've been in the business of the interagency and I used to teach for almost four years the interagency in the Intel community.
So one of the Viva, one of the courses that I taught at the Defense Intelligence Agency as part of the Combined Strategic Intelligence Training Program was a one-week course on our national intelligence system.
So the Article 1, Article 2, and Article 3 branch components related to our national security ecosystem, which includes Intel, foreign relations, state, DOD, Intel community.
I think I already said that a couple of times.
And so I know the system probably better than most.
And so when you kind of, the attorneys mention that, the one thing that comes to my mind on the defense team is that they probably don't realize that they cannot get U.S. Capitol Police information, even though that was listed as one of the interagency, that and ATF that they wanted to obtain.
And the reason being is because I've been saying this for five years.
U.S. Capitol Police, lawyers, senior lawyers, all J6ers, all J6 attorneys, that is an entity that was created by Title II U.S. Code Chapter 29.
It is a legislative branch entity.
Meaning, if you're trying to get Jocelyn Ballantyne of the DOJ to provide you exculpatory information from the U.S. Capitol Police, they don't have the authority to do that.
Even if Jocelyn was the biggest patriot ever, she would have to request that from the Capitol Police Board.
Okay.
And who is the Capitol Police Board consist of?
The House Sergeant-at-Arms and the Senate Sergeant-at-Arms and the architect of the Capitol.
House Sergeant-at-Arms works for the Speaker.
Senate Sergeant at Arms works for the Senate Majority Leader.
So if you want to get that information, it has to be released by the Speaker of the House and the Senate Majority Leader.
And not subject to FOIA requests, correct?
It's not subject to FOIA.
It's not subject to Brady because it is a legislative branch entity and FOIA applies to the executive branch and Brady applies to the prosecution's evidence that they've gotten.
Well, how did the prosecution get their evidence related to January 6th?
It was from the U.S. Capitol Police CCTV footage that was manipulated and censored with only inculpatory evidence to the DOJ.
The exculpatory was contained for years until Kevin McCarthy came into play, tried to slow roll and block that.
And then Mike Johnson, we got in, he started to release it based on his own authorities as the Speaker of the House.
But not all of it was released.
Okay.
So the way you get to it is so every year the Capitol Police Board chairman alternates between the House Sergeant at Arms and the Senate Sergeant at Arms.
So last year, when JD Vance became the president of the Senate on January 20th of 2025 as the vice president, right?
He had the opportunity because that's when the Senate Sergeant at Arms was the chair of the Capitol Police Board.
So keep in mind, this is very nuanced.
And since you're a lawyer, I'm going to go into the nuance.
The Senate Sergeant at Arms constitutionally works for the President of the Senate, who is the senior constitutional officer of the Senate, United States Senate.
The Senate Majority Leader is a political construct that's not listed and depicted in the U.S. Constitution.
It is the president of the Senate that is the senior office holder of the Senate.
And when he's vacant, then it's the Senate pro tem, right?
Usually the most senior senator from the majority party.
So it would be Chuck Grassley, right?
But if JD Vance steps in and takes that role as the president of the Senate, he controls the Senate Sergeant-at-Arms.
And if the Senate Sergeant at Arms that year is the chair of the Capitol Police Board, which it was last year, JD Vance had from January 20th of last year until January 3rd of this year to order the Senate Sergeant-at-Arms as the Capitol Police Board chairman to order the chief of the Capitol Police to direct the general counsel of the Capitol Police to disclose all of this exculpatory Brady-esque material.
Explain why he only had until January 3rd, 2026 to do that.
Because Congress constitutionally, every Congress, we're in the 119th right now, starts and begins on January 3rd of the odd year.
Okay?
That's when Congress is sworn in.
Okay.
So then on January 3rd, the Senate Sergeant-at-Arms of an odd year is the chair of the Capitol Police Board.
And then the House Sergeant-at-Arms of an even year is the chair of the Capitol Police Board.
So JD Vance, I tried to provide it to him.
Hey, you want to flex?
You want to expose January 6th?
I communicated to many people that talked to him.
He opted to basically act like Mike Pence, nothing.
So now we're at the point where January 3rd of 2026 rolls around.
And now Mike Johnson, his sergeant-at-arms, Bill McFarlane, is the chair of the Capitol Police Board.
So, Mr. Brian Cole, legal team, if you want to get to U.S. Capitol Police information, the only way you're getting it is to somehow blackmail, coerce, or purchase the attention of Mike Johnson for him to then have the necessary courage to order his sergeant-at-arms, Bill McFarlane, mind you, who was appointed by Kevin McCarthy.
So you may have to pay off and bribe and coerce and blackmail McCarthy alongside of it to get Bill McFarlane to order the general counsel of the U.S. Capitol Police, Tad Debias, to release all your information.
But he won't do that because it would self-incriminate the general counsel.
So you must first replace the general counsel immediately, take all of his devices, have him walk out the door, replace him with the general counsel that would immediately start to dig in the work product of the general counsel of the U.S. Capitol Police and the deliberate decision-making and communications of that office.
Meaning, you have to kick everybody out, replace them, and then you can start to do some cleansing of explosive material punishment.
Let me add a little asterisk to cover your asterisk.
The extort or coerce was a joke, Pete.
It is metaphorically speaking.
Ivan is not encouraging anyone to break any laws, and anybody who says otherwise doesn't get hyperbole.
All right.
No, no.
So let me caveat that even more.
Just like the Epstein files are used to control and manipulate our government officials and the $250 million to the White House and millions through from the same individual known as Miriam Adelson to control the Republican brand.
You have to come up with even further damning files against these individuals for them to deviate from their loyalty to the Epstein files and their loyalty to Miriam Adelson.
Does that make sense?
Makes sense.
It makes sense.
So the bottom line, there's information they're going to move.
So there's information that may be exculpatory that's not in the possession of the prosecution.
So it's not going to be turned over by any wave Brady obligation.
That is basically that applied to every J Sixer, what I just explained.
The only way you were going to get exculpatory information from the CCTV footage of the U.S. Capitol Police and to pierce into the false testimony of David Lazarus, for example, of in the Oath Keepers trial, David Lazarus was head of protection over for Nancy Pelosi or Harry Dunn, right?
Or Michael Byrd to testify.
You have to have the compulsion from Capitol Police leadership.
And you can't have that if they are the ones part of the Fed surrection.
Wink, wink, Tad Debias.
Okay.
And that's why weaponization continues.
And that's why the deep state's undefeated against the Republicans and the Democrats and the White House and Donald Trump.
Okay, so with that said, and people in the chat are saying this is blackpilling, others are saying it's informative and you need to know this if you need to change it.
I say clip it, post it, everybody, get it to the eyeballs that need to see it.
So now, what happens during the hearing?
The hearing now.
There is a solution, by the way.
We'll get to it.
Okay.
Well, no, not you're going to get to it now.
What's the solution, Ivan?
For the black pillars out there.
So everyone calling me a black pillar.
Once I got you blackpilled, then I offer the solution.
I just need to get you to understand the actual problem and then be like, oh man, there's nothing that can solve it.
No, I already thought through that.
So I mean, it's a simple thing.
Is think about it.
If this information is presented to, I mean, who has leverage over Mike Johnson?
Let's kind of brainstorm this.
Who is interested in the truth of January 6th?
Who is interested in power and influence over Mike Johnson?
I'm going to feel stupid not being able to get it.
Who is interested in January 6th?
That has passed.
Who's interested in the truth and the final exposure of January 6th?
I would imagine, well, it's either going to be Trump or JD Vance.
Donald Trump.
Okay.
But many in his White House, they don't want the truth to come out.
It's like, that's in the past, right?
Just like the 2020 election and what happened in Georgia yesterday.
Most of those, there's 404 people in the White House.
Most of them are like, you know what?
I just want a job.
I just want the prestige of being in the White House.
I could care less about justice, right?
And so they don't, best case scenario, it's not a priority for them, right?
And then same thing in the House, but more likely than not, it's they were complicit in it.
Most of these Republicans that were there that day were complicit in participating in the subsequent cover-up, enabling Pelosi with the cover-up.
So they don't want any of it to come out.
So you have to contend with them.
Some key individuals.
I've heard through multiple people that Jim Jordan is a guy that doesn't want the full truth of January 6th to come out for best case scenario because his text messages with Cassidy Hutchinson, allegedly, potentially, are not going to be a good look.
Okay.
Two, Liz Cheney.
Did she record Kevin McCarthy and then disclose those recordings and the content of those communications with the New York Times?
Yes, she did.
How many other recordings does Liz Cheney have on other Republicans that will be quite damning as it relates to January 6th?
Hmm.
How many text messages does she have?
If I may, I think I've okay, it glitched for a second.
I'm ignorant or naive.
Is it this is Cassidy Hutchison?
Is the reason why the text messages might not be a good look because of like sexual improprieties, allegedly, or because of conspiratorial improprieties?
I'll leave you to think what it is because I don't want to repeat it because I haven't confirmed it.
But I think you're okay.
Based on the images, I know where I'm inclined to go.
Depending on what Cassidy looked like, my mind could go one way or the other.
Okay, allegedly, and I have no knowledge of this, but you know, look, if Washington is anything like a private law firm, everybody's doing everything with everybody.
I say in private law firms, they, you know, people fuck each other one way or the other, either literally or professionally.
So, okay.
Hey, I'm trying to keep my professionalism here, you know, just like I was with Michael Fanone last week here.
Okay, so Trump, Trump is the one who has the interest.
He has the power, but he is being gatekept by a couple of folks.
I get it.
Chairman Jim Jordan is the chair of the Judiciary Committee.
He exposed the weaponization last year.
I get it.
There is a limited hangout going on here, but it's not enough, right?
Same thing with the House Administration Chairman.
Brian Style replaced Paul Ryan in Wisconsin's first congressional district.
That is the committee that actually has oversight over the Capitol Police.
And in the rules package that allowed Barry Lauterbuck to create his subcommittee under judiciary, there is limited ability, if any at all, for Lautermo to pierce into that U.S. Capitol Police.
So now we're in a position where you can't Brady anything from U.S. Capitol Police.
You can't FOIA it.
And now there's no political mechanism of the interested party subcommittee to go after the U.S. Capitol Police.
Why?
Ashley Callan: A Deep Dive 00:09:02
Because look this name up: Ashley Callan, C-A-L-L-A-N.
We must do a deep dive on this.
And maybe Steve Baker will start to understand why they went so ferociously against his analysis of Miss Shawnee Kirkhoff.
Ashley Callan is a.
I'm only using Grok just because it's, you know, yes.
Prominent American attorney, congressional staffer known for her extensive work, yada, yada, on Capitol Hill.
She mostly is not yada yada.
Work in oversight investigations and legal advising on Capitol Hill.
Okay.
On the Oversight Committee and Judiciary Committee.
Continue.
She recently served as general counsel to Speaker of the House Mike Johnson, a role she held until her retirement from government 2025 after more than two decades.
Prior to that, she was general counsel to Steve Scalise.
Her career focused on congressional investigations and oversight, including.
I think we can probably skip that.
No, no, no, go back.
This is important.
Deputy Staff Director, oversight and reform under then ranking member Comer and earlier Jim Jordan.
Okay.
Now let's take a look and see where she works now in May 2025.
Hold up, hold up.
I want to take.
I mean, it's going to be a private law firm.
Where does she?
No, no, no.
It was in that.
It was in the text right there.
You had it up.
Oh, bring it back up here.
This is massive.
I mean, this is.
She joined her insider.
Hold on, Viva.
Say it again.
Yeah, right there.
Ashley Callan currently works at Jenner and Block, a major law firm.
Now take a look at who else works at Jenner and Block.
I'll give you a hint.
Well, you know, I don't want to hint it yet because I want you to come to the same conclusion.
No, but I want to.
Well, I know that we've dealt with people who Thomas Hill.
Let me see if any names stick out.
Type in the name Andrew McCabe.
Where Andy McCabe works?
Let's see what it says.
Senior, yada, yeah.
Yeah.
Additionally, well, okay, maybe this isn't going to get it.
Does Andy McCabe work at Jenner Block?
That's what I heard.
So let's, you know, we can take a look at that.
The other thing I heard, which we can search right now, is see who if Ashley represents the Clintons.
Oh, no, that was.
No, he doesn't work at Jenner Block.
The reference to Jenner Block, McCabe, brief period early in his career.
Okay, so that was.
Okay, there's a slight tenuous relationship.
So it's a little looser than I originally had thought.
No, no, that's his post-FBI career legal analyst, distinguishing visiting at George Mason.
No private.
No, I'm sorry.
I confused him with Weissman, Andrew Weissman, I believe.
Where does Andrew Weissman work?
Let's see if I'm right.
I think it's this.
I like this game.
NY Law School, legal analyst.
Regarding Jenner Block, relevant.
Weissman was a partner there in early 2005, again to 2020, 2021, co-chairing the investigations, compliance, and defense practice.
He left to focus on academia.
Wait.
December 25 report noted he parted ways with Jenner Block Lawyers, who had been defending him.
With Jenner Block, who had been defending him in a personal defamation lawsuit.
So Weissman.
That was the linkage I was kind of.
Okay, so not McGill.
It's not like explosive, but just for background, right?
For context.
So now let's take a look and see if Miss Ashley represents the Clintons.
Because one of my sources told me that that was the case.
And I don't know if that's public information.
Hold on.
Ashley Callan.
Okay, hold on, hold on.
Well, let's see.
Does Ashley Callan represent the, I was going to say the Simpsons, the Clintons?
Let me bring this up here and see what it says.
Now, Grok is only, it's not great.
Yes, Ashley Callan represents or has represented Bill Clinton in high-profile matters.
When?
In late 2025, the Clintons were subpoena.
They refused to appear.
Callan, along with Connolly, co-signed and transmitted key letters to the chairman.
Okay, fine.
So now let me tell you what else I heard.
Hold on one second.
Tie this back again.
So Callan is working at Jenner Block.
How did we get into Jenner Block in the first place?
Exactly.
That's what I was going to bring it back to.
Let's bring you back.
This is like, I like it.
It's actually counsel on judiciary and oversight, then became the speaker's general counsel.
My sources tell me that she was the one most instrumental in blocking Barry Lautermuck from creating a full separate committee to investigate January 6th and have full oversight and ability to reach into U.S. Capitol Police.
Subpoena power and investigatory power to basically go after the general counsel of the U.S. Capitol Police, the Inspector General of the Capitol Police, the Harry Dunns, the David Lazaruses, the Akanilo Ganels, the Julie Farnhams, the Sean Gallagher, the Yogananda Pittmans.
Should I stop there?
Yeah, the noels of the world.
All U.S. Capitol Police officers somehow involved in the alleged Fed surrection.
So Ashley blocked that.
And instead, because Donald Trump wanted the committee, but Donald Trump doesn't have the bandwidth to focus in on making sure it happens, they go ahead and defeat him through limited hangouts by creating a subcommittee with barely any power to do anything, just like they did to Ed Martin.
Don't be the U.S. attorney.
Go be some staff lackey with no power.
All right.
So it's still undefeated.
And I just keep monitoring it and trying to get buy-in from others.
So my solution.
Let's get this to Mr. Trump so that he understands the nuances and dynamics of why everyone's blocking him from getting to the truth of January 6th.
Or, hey, Mr. Barry Lautermilk, why don't you grow a pair and go on every single platform to include on Viva's show explaining in detail whether or not what I'm saying is true and basically say, hey, I need to meet with President Trump for him to go scorched earth on Mike Johnson and his former general counsel and say, you know what?
Why the F are you not creating a committee so that Barry Lautermoke can actually go subpoena and investigate the former House Sergeant at Arms Paul Irving, the general counsel Tad Debias, his work product, seize all of his communications, all of his devices, computer, phone, et cetera, so that we can provide it to Brian Cole Jr.'s defense would be one reason.
But that won't work.
You know why?
Because cash counterfeit cash and Dan Bongina and Scam Blondie and Judge Janine already stood up there in a press conference saying, Hey, Jocelyn Ballantyne just duped us into believing that Patsy Brian Cole Jr. is the actual pipe bummer.
So now their reputation is ruined if they actually try to get to the truth.
See the problem?
Yeah.
Well, what I'm just stunned at is that there hasn't been like definitively exculpatory evidence that is able to disprove where Brian Cole was or wasn't coming from the family or his side, or maybe they're holding it, but meanwhile, he's still being detained.
And so this all sort of, you know, Jen Saki circles back to the beginning.
So all of this corruption, all of this incestuous, insidious corruption is going on all the while they're arguing for indefinite pretrial detention until it's going to try to get exculpatory evidence, but the exculpatory evidence that they're trying to seek will never be provided to them because the CIA and the Intel community is going to, John Radcliffe is going to say, no, you're not getting anything on Shawnee Kirchhoff.
Go Locals Raid Notice 00:05:14
No, you're not getting anything because it's all classified as he shills for the designated hitter of the deep state, Jocelyn Ballantine.
As he, what else?
As the U.S. Capitol Police doesn't provide it.
A couple notes.
Tom Fitton just sued the CIA, remember?
And they said, oh, you're not related to January 6th.
And they said, oh, give us four years to respond to your FOIA until we conduct the next coup and place someone else in there.
That's one aspect of it.
The other aspect is this is crucial.
God, this is crucial.
And is it?
Oh, crap.
I got to go.
I got to go on InfoWars right about now.
Well, all right.
All right.
We'll see if I'm here, but the bottom line, he's still, they're going to have to continue this hearing in a month from now.
Yes.
Let me be back tomorrow for details, whatever.
Or next week.
I mean, exactly.
Peace.
Thank you very much.
Go, enjoy.
Everyone, InfoWars.
See you soon, Ivan.
Well, I'm going to bring up.
Hold on.
Do I kick him out of here?
Oh, yeah, kick him like that.
Okay, good.
I'll bring up at the very least a suspicious element that Cara brought up, which in her report, I'll give everybody the link.
You know, the courtroom in the afternoon after the hearing, which lasted an hour and a half, they pulled the full Michigan ballot counting strategy by kicking everyone out and boarding up the window so that nobody could see what was going on in the courtroom.
Listen to this.
But the last thing I want to say that was notable about this hearing was that as soon as it was over, something happened that I've never seen before.
And I spoke to a number of other journalists there as well, and they've never seen it happen either, which is the windows to the courtroom were blocked with black paper so that people couldn't look into the windows.
As soon as they shut the doors, they like very strangely put this black paper up to cover the windows so nobody could see in.
And then the guards came in the U.S. Marshals and they told anybody that was there in that hearing they had to leave the building, which has never happened before.
Again, I've covered trials for years, and so have a lot of the other journalists that were there and witnessed that.
And they said that's never happened before.
It's a public courtroom, a public building where anybody could go as long as you could pass through security and you're not carrying a weapon.
You can go inside.
There's a cafeteria there that the public is welcome to eat in.
And it's a public courthouse.
There's accountability when it comes to these trials.
So the members of the public are allowed to sit in on any trial that they want to.
So for the court officers to wait outside of that door and tell everybody there that they had to leave right then and there, you got to go.
That was bizarre.
That was really bizarre.
I'm going to give everybody the link to Cara's report, and you can go check out the whole thing.
It's a 15-minute clip here.
Boom.
Take that and enjoy it.
And then just to tie the knot that we didn't get to with Ivan, but bottom line, yeah, I don't know if they're going to continue this or it's been continued.
He has not gotten bail yet.
Pipe bomb suspect Brian Cole denied bond ahead of trial.
Is this the latest one?
Yeah, this is from today.
Cole was arrested by the FBI in December after nearly a four year.
Yeah, yada, yada, yada.
District judge denied a bond motion for Brian Cole Jr., the man accused of planting the pipe bombs outside the head.
Cole was arrested by the FBI in December.
Fine.
Judge Amir Ali of the U.S. District Court in D.C. said he based his decision filed on Thursday on the four factors, which range from we covered these before: the nature and the circumstances of the offense, the weight of the evidence against the defendant, the history and characteristics of the defendant, and the nature and the seriousness of the danger to any person or the community posed.
No condition or combination, yada, yada, yada.
FBI used an affidavit.
So they have another hearing in a month.
And meanwhile, this guy will have been in jail now, pre-trial detention, which was par for the course in the persecution of the other Jan Sixers who probably actually had more to do with January 6th than this guy.
You know, indefinite pre-trial detention, which was totally not totally not contrary to any rules of law and order.
All right, we're going to go to locals because I'm getting hungry.
So I'm going to have to get out of here soon.
And I promised a good locals exclusive, which we're going to get.
If you're coming, come on over.
The Sunday show, depending on what time I get back, I might be able to get back in time for the Sunday show.
