Peasants Perspective
Budget Wars: Elon's Twitter Tantrum or Strategic Chess Move?
Are we all just modern-day peasants watching a corrupt aristocracy rule our lives? In this eye-opening episode, we dive into the disturbing parallels between feudal systems of old and today's power structures that keep everyday Americans struggling while elites profit.
We examine a shocking case of biological warfare threats after two Chinese nationals were arrested for smuggling dangerous pathogens into the University of Michigan – a fungus capable of devastating our food supply and causing human illness. This isn't just academic research gone wrong; it's part of a systematic infiltration of American institutions by foreign adversaries that our government seems unwilling or unable to stop.
The conversation takes an equally troubling turn as we expose the fiscal house of cards holding up our economy. When White House spokesperson Carolyn Leavitt revealed that the Congressional Budget Office hasn't employed a single Republican staffer in over two decades, it confirmed what many have suspected – our budget numbers aren't just bad, they're purposely manipulated. With $21 trillion in unaccounted government spending and "magic money printers" discovered by Elon Musk's efficiency team, we're watching a financial sleight of hand that makes medieval tax collectors look transparent by comparison.
Perhaps most disturbing is how accountability has vanished from our institutions. We discuss the Capitol Police promoting officers who should have been terminated for fraud, judges rigging case assignments to ensure politically-aligned outcomes, and media outlets like NPR claiming objectivity while pushing clear partisan narratives.
This isn't left versus right – it's the powerful versus the powerless. Join us as we pull back the curtain on a system that increasingly treats citizens as subjects rather than stakeholders in their own country. The revolution might not be televised, but it will be podcasted.

And when they went to the queen to tell her Ruth Bunchik had no bread, do you know what she said? Let them eat cake here. You take the bomb we're getting screwed, man.
Speaker 3:Every time we turn around we're getting screwed. Oh, the revolution's gonna be through podcasting for sure. That's the only way we talk. It's the little guys. The little guys that take the brunt of everything. It's gotta stop. Peasants, man, we're just peasants, every one of us. You watch those old movies. You see the peasants in the background with the kings and queens walking around. We're those people. We're those people. Good morning peasants. We're still not. Ai rod's over here sweating bullets. It's so early in the morning and he's already stressed.
Speaker 5:That was the fastest I could make it happen. It took me about a minute and a half.
Speaker 3:That was pretty good. Well, in a pinch Ron just broke his whole day down into a minute and a half. Oh, that's great. It's good to be with you guys this morning. I think we're good everywhere right I don't know.
Speaker 5:I gotta double check that we're even streaming correctly well, we're streaming on the rumble oh, now we're doing the. Does it sound good?
Speaker 3:check all of our streams, I mean I don't know I'm not hearing it on rumble. If I do, it'll double through our sound go ahead, double it for a second, let's, let's check otherwise we might be uh blank okay, here's my. I'm playing it on. I'm playing it on facebook. I don't have any sound yeah, he's got no audio.
Speaker 5:I knew it okay, okay we're waiting on audio boom, try that all right, how's that?
Speaker 3:can anybody hear that? Hello, I heard a can crack in the background what was that? It wasn't me was it you boom try that all right, there we go. Good morning peas. We're still not AI, as you can see. Welcome to another episode of Peasants Perspective. What was that? Yep, we can hear it. Okay, was it you. We're getting sound now.
Speaker 5:Okay, I turned off a different audio. Hopefully we don't lose it again.
Speaker 3:Well, now I'm not hearing audio on rumble.
Speaker 5:Oh really, oh God, I don't know which uh, we were getting sound on Facebook. Okay, weedham boys says, he can hear us.
Speaker 3:Ooh, we'd have boys Got it. All right, let's check. I don't know why rumble, I've got something there.
Speaker 5:How's that check? This just okay, we didn't boys, hear us we didn't boys got it all right, let's check.
Speaker 3:I don't know why rumble, I guess. All right, we're good everywhere. Oh well, yes, this is a fun show. We love the peasant's perspective. Good morning everybody. Another great day in the us of a, or maybe we can just call it the usg. We're just gonna start calling this the us government. We all just live in the government now. Okay, so a couple things happened overnight. Uh, first things. Uh, was this the one I wanted? I don't think it's the one I want, nope, okay, first things. First is uh kelly president bukele, down in el salvador, put out this little tweet yesterday.
Speaker 3:He said to western nations you can't build or even fix anything on top of societal disorder. Take traffic, for example. The most logical solution is public transport, but without order. Anyone who could afford a car will avoid it, simply because they don't feel safe using it. You, on the other hand, have almost everything, but you're quickly losing your societal order. How can you predict where things are heading in the near future? There's still time to save your nations, but not much so clearly he's coming from. I just got a message. We were streaming everywhere. Yeah, everybody's work. Oh, he's messaging more. Okay.
Speaker 5:Great, got me freaking out all right.
Speaker 3:So this is an easy concept, right? If you don't feel safe, you're going to limit what you're doing. You don't feel safe getting on an airplane because they're falling out of the sky, because suicide bombers are blowing up inside of them suicide bombers are blowing up inside of them what's going on?
Speaker 5:that was me. I was reopening the studio to make sure that we had a volume this could be a bad okay this is gonna be a bad day.
Speaker 3:Okay, so you don't want to get on an airplane if they're falling out of the sky?
Speaker 3:right, yeah, you don't want to get on a bus if you're likely to get robbed. You're not going to want to get on the subway if you're going to cost it every time. It's pretty simple. So if you don't have societal order right, people aren't going to voluntarily use public transport, or voluntarily if their kids are getting beat up at school, eventually they're going to stop going to school. I mean, it's just like whether they view it as a negative or a positive. They're going to you. What are you, what are you going to do? Right?
Speaker 3:And so we played yesterday about the fall of Europe and how it's in. Was it Sweden, where the president acknowledged that they no longer have a monopoly on violence as in? There's other people that will use violence to get what they want, which usually we delegate that to the government and then try to constrain them with a constitution. So Bukele recently also gave a speech where he says I don't really care if they call me a dictator. I care about you know, order and function of my country. He's like. I care about you guys, he's like. So I don't care what they call me, because the people who call me those names are typically the people who were attached, you know, or on the t of the old system where there was so much corruption and sure, that's also what attire would say of course he's just like live here
Speaker 3:yeah, you know decide if you're happy, if there's order, you know, uh, that's, that's the thing I don't know. They had to do what was called the exception. Basically, they had to suspend the Constitution, give him dictatorial power to fix the problems. Rome did this multiple times. This is where the phrase dictator comes in.
Speaker 3:They didn't view it as a bad thing. It was like, hey, we need to make you the dictator, go clean up this issue or go fight this war. Do issue or go fight this war, do what you got to do. Our founding fathers understood that in times of emergency, when you have to do executive power, you cannot leave it to a committee. You got to leave it to a man, right, and so this is the power of the presidency, it's to be the dictator, right. The the buck stops here, guy. So but kelly's just acknowledging that like, listen, you gotta. You gotta focus on and we the peasants understand this if you live a bad neighborhood, you understand. About living in a bad neighborhood, one thing that really blew me away. So in prison I met a whole lot of guys that were in there on gun charges and it was just got felon in possession of a gun. So at some point in their life they'd gotten a felony, I don't know drugs, dui, felonies, whatever Right. And one guy was got identity theft, no-transcript.
Speaker 5:Wow, bullets Right.
Speaker 3:So, and I remember one time I was in Oklahoma and I was talking with a guy that was from the St Louis area and he was in there. He had five kids too and he was my age and he was in there for I think he was on a 15 year sentence, which is a long time, and it was for felon in possession of a gun. And what happened, you know, back in his 20s he had a felony and, you know, got his life straight, got married, had a bunch of kids and but he lived in bad neighborhood in st louis and he goes. I had to defend myself, like you, you couldn't, couldn't live in my neighborhood without a gun. So he had a gun and at some point he got pulled over, got found with a gun and boom, 15 years all right I mean the, the felon in possession with the gun.
Speaker 3:There's a huge disparity in sentencing, by the way, because it's very much a judge lottery and a jurisdiction. You know all right what circuit you're getting charged in and who the da is at the time, like there's so many variables, but a lot of those guys are getting slammed. I mean 5 to 15 years for felon in a possession with a gun. Heaven forbid you're. There's any other crime involved?
Speaker 3:right so, uh, but the idea like for me, I don't typically carry right so, and I wasn't raised in an environment where my parents carried or we had. We were in a safety bubble but there's no need to be armed. But talking to some of these people that have come from some of these neighborhoods around the country, I hear them talking and I'm like I can see why you'd want to be armed Like the police. Don't just come rushing into those neighborhoods. They're not, they're not hanging around.
Speaker 3:It's not a two minutes from when you call to when you hear the sirens coming down the street situation, you know, I mean in the ghetto, yeah, and they're like yeah, oh, you're being, uh, you've got a domestic violence assault situation you know, there's a guy outside your house threatening to break your window. Come in, all right. Well, we'll get there when we can. You know we're over here still on the 48 hours since the last murder, you know. I mean, it's like we don't understand that a lot of us us peasants.
Speaker 3:We don't understand that. Now some do. I mean we have some listeners that I know are listening from areas that are deep in the city and the ones that talk to me talk to me about these kind of problems. I mean this is partly why they're listening to this show. It's like, yeah, um, the other thing that happened yesterday was a university of michigan chinese scholar was charged in a conspiracy to smuggle dangerous biological path and pathogen through the detroit metro airport. Now this is one of those things where you can go down some dark holes and you can get a lot of anxiety, worrying about the future and what can and can happen. And we definitely dabble with that here on this show Two million gotaways. We're not afraid. We're not afraid to say the thing that can't be said, but we have to like we can't live in that world, we can't live in a place of fear and anxiety, and but at the same time we have to be clear eyed about what we're facing, because you can't fix anything if you can't see it.
Speaker 3:And so this situation with china is grave. I mean they are infiltrated all over the place. They got 350,000 students. Every student who comes here on one of these travel student visas has to sign a people's republic document that says that they're basically spying on america and they'll relay any information they want. And I mean over and over, and I mean this is where your intellectual theft comes from. I mean it's, it's grave. And then these people go on to get jobs in.
Speaker 5:America. It's like the reverse of a nondisclosure agreement. It's like a full disclosure. Yes.
Speaker 3:So federal authorities in Detroit on Tuesday announced charges against a Chinese scholar at the University of Michigan researcher for allegedly conspiring to smuggle a dangerous biological biological pathogen into the us, a path capable of damaging agricultural crops and causing illness in humans and livestock what a weird boyfriend to have yeah, well, he's.
Speaker 3:He's a similar researcher at a chinese university, university of michigan scholar young queen yang, 33, and her boyfriend jung young liu, 34. Both Chinese citizens were charged in a criminal complaint with conspiracy, smuggled goods into the US, making false statements and visa fraud. Interim Detroit US Attorney Jerome F Gorgon Jr. Now. So, according to the criminal complaint, yang received Chinese government funding to work on a dangerous pathogen in China.
Speaker 3:A pathogen is a microorganism or biological agent that can cause disease or illness. In this case, the pathogen is a fungus called Fusarium gramirium, which can cause head blight, a disease that affects wheat, barley, maize and rice. It is responsible for billions of dollars in economic losses worldwide each year. According to a press release from the US Attorney's Office, the toxins produced by Fusarium gramirium can cause vomiting, liver damage and reproductive defects in humans and livestock. The criminal complaint alleges that Jian's boyfriend Liu works at a Chinese university where he conducts research on the same pathogen. Authorities allege that he initially lied but later admitted to smuggling the pathogen into the US through Detroit Metropolitan Airport on July 27, 2024, with the intent of conducting research at the University of Michigan Laboratory, where he'd been working since 2003. Huh, I mean you.
Speaker 3:You know that's a good cover I wonder if there are legitimate reasons to study this pathogen that's a good cover story to get, oh yeah forth, you know, an fbi ad if tuesday stated that leo was interviewed at the airport by customs and border patrol agents and eventually admitted materials found in his backpack were different strains of the passage in fusarium grammarium. He also admitted that he intended to use the U M lab to conduct research with the biological materials found in his backpack. So okay, sure, okay.
Speaker 5:Does the university know that?
Speaker 3:you're bringing this in Like hey, I got this home sample. Yeah, that's.
Speaker 5:I know that's what I was asking. Does the university know this is even happening?
Speaker 3:See, I know that's what I was asking. Does the university know this is even happening? See, that's the question. So now it's like this is spycraft. Hey, we're co-opting your stuff if I can just break into your office at night and just use everything in here yeah, you know what I mean. This is what they do in these factories. Oh yeah, they got this big product that they're doing for, uh, tesla or nike, and then at night they fire up the factories and they're selling the shipment to pay less right you know what I mean.
Speaker 3:Like that's their alibaba, that's that's they're doing the double shift thing, right?
Speaker 5:so that is their business, their business model like oh great nice research lab.
Speaker 3:Great that you guys paid for that. I'm gonna go research a pathogen you guys don't want to touch. Thanks for the tech and the tooling. Yeah, exactly so. Even if he's telling the truth, it's not good either yeah, for exactly in fact an examination. So he said uh, after lou smuggling of the biological weapon, uh? Fbi agents interviewed yon who falsely claimed that she knew nothing about lou smuggling or his intent to conduct research on the pathogen the laboratory during the visit, according to the fbi affidavit. Okay, of course.
Speaker 3:Now the girlfriend, who actually has the key pass to the lab, is like oh no, what you're talking about, we're not doing anything. In fact, an examination of electronic communications between leo and juan showed that the two discuss the shipping of biological materials and research being done to the laboratory prior to leo's rival. The affidavit state electronic evidence also shows that juan had been involved in smuggling packages of biological material into the united states on prior occasions.
Speaker 5:Sounds yeah, that's what I was just going to say Sounds like it's not their first rodeo.
Speaker 3:A brief bio of Yuan University of Michigan. Yuan is from Sichuan, china. She received a PhD at Sichuan University in 2020 and completed a two-year postdoctoral fellowship there. During her PhDd training, she studied the mechanisms by which fungi combat plant-derived stresses. She joined the lab in august 2022 as a postdoc and her research mainly focused on the evolutionary perspective of rlks and their ligands.
Speaker 3:Okay, your chinese is amazing, by the way the alleged actions of these chinese nationals, including a loyal member of the chinese communist party, are of the gravest national security concerns, us Attorney Gorgon in a statement. These two aliens have been charged with smuggling a fungus, and has been described as a potential agro terrorism weapon, into the heartland of America, where they apparently intended to use University of Michigan Laboratory to further their scheme. Wow, so these are the kind of things like hey, why is the crop failing this year? I don't know, because you didn't close the border. He's dumb, jeez louise.
Speaker 5:So this well, we got some graduate students. They're, you know, mucking around with some shirts. We got this.
Speaker 3:We got this. So this is laura ingram breaking this same story. You guys know all the details already, but there's some additional commentary here breaking tonight.
Speaker 9:Two chinese nationals have been charged with smuggling a dangerous biological pathogen into the united states, and this pathogen is considered a serious threat to our food supply and thus our national security. Fox's david spununt is here with all the details. David, this is terrifying.
Speaker 7:Laura. It really is quite an interesting story. According to the Justice Department, one of them worked at a laboratory connected to the University of Michigan. The FBI arrested 33-year-old Yu-Kwing John for allegedly smuggling in a fungus called Fusarium graminarium, which could be used as an agro-terrorism weapon. The gases from the fungus could cause liver damage, vomiting and reproductive defects in humans and livestock.
Speaker 7:Doj officials say John has direct ties to the Chinese Communist Party and she works at the University of Michigan and her boyfriend is connected to a university back in China.
Speaker 7:Fbi Director Kash Patel, in an exclusive statement to Fox Digital, says this case is a sobering reminder that the Chinese Communist Party continues to deploy operatives and researchers to infiltrate our institutions and target our food supply, an act that could cripple our economy and endanger American lives. Smuggling a known agro-terrorism agent into the US is not just a violation of law, it's a direct threat to national security. I commend the FBI Detroit Division and our partners at CPB for stopping this biological threat before it could do real damage. Now senior DOJ leaders Laura are debating whether to bring back the so-called China Initiative, a controversial program during the Bill Barr Justice Department that aimed to stop Chinese espionage that began in American universities. The DOJ under Merrick Garland got rid of the name after groups came forward and complained it was insensitive, but I'm told the current Attorney General, pam Bondi, and her team want to focus on China, though it's unclear if they'll bring the China Initiative name back, laura.
Speaker 3:So we're arguing about the name, all right. Well, yeah, I mean you got to go up to chinese, but don't be insensitive and call it the china until proven otherwise. You put us in a very precarious situation here. They all to get here to leave their country, they have to agree to spy on us. You put us in a bad spot. You know good gravy, these people are nuts maybe we should call it the michigan fungus yeah, china came from china.
Speaker 3:All right, and you know there's, there's so many things. Do you remember when the cows were being just dying in kansas by the thousands? One of our listeners was from there. Do you remember this? They were like oh, we had a heat wave.
Speaker 5:There was no special heat wave no, I do remember there being some cow problems over in europe and then there were some well this concerns this again was another one of these.
Speaker 3:Go look it up in the news. You're not going to find much about it, but you'll find some obscure science thing that's like oh yeah, there was a major virus outbreak into the cow population. Killed like 10 000 cows in kansas right, it wasn't like a prion thing it's something like that.
Speaker 3:It wasn't foot and mouth or head and you know mad cow disease, it was something else, something that we wouldn't recognize, but it was a lab leak, escape, right, and it got into and it killed 10 000 or thousands of cows. I mean, there were the videos and cnn was reporting the cow deaths as, oh, this is heat wave, climate change, stop driving. You know it was like there's nothing to do with that. That's okay.
Speaker 3:So part of this big beautiful bill, which we're going to talk about a little bit more as budget implications in a minute, part of this big beautiful bill has got an artificial intelligence and information technology modernization initiative. Okay, so what this does is it tells, it authorizes, it sets some money aside and it says secretary of commerce shall use the funds appropriate, appropriated under subsection a for the following to place or modernize within the department of commerce legacy business systems. Okay, so you know all the old 70s and 80s teletype systems that they're using for, like point of sale stuff. No, just everything, like all of their ledger systems, all their accounting systems. These are all old systems.
Speaker 5:You mean like at the DMV? Yes, like everything Right.
Speaker 3:But this is on the federal level. Okay, okay, with state of the art commercial artificial, with state of-art commercial artificial intelligence systems and automated decision systems. So what's significant here is commercial, which means somebody else is going to make it, they're going to buy it and it's ai and it's ai and it makes automated decisions. Oh, you got to get your application denied, denied, denied, denied. Why I meet all the requirements denied, denied, that, denied. That's the default setting.
Speaker 3:I go to the help desk. You know what I'm saying Like. Oh, taylor, oh, his accounts get denied, double denied, right To facilitate, within the Department of Commerce, the adoption of artificial intelligence models that increase operational efficiency and service delivery. Oh, I like the sound of that. I don't know about the decision systems to improve, within the Department of Commerce, the security posture of the federal information technology systems to modernize architecture, automated threat detection and integrated artificial intelligence solutions. So we could deny it faster.
Speaker 3:Yeah, now here's the thing. All this sounds great. It all sounds great, but this is very vague. So there's more to this bill. This is just one page out of it. It's very vague. I can see them being like yeah, we're going to create a cyber security system with backdoors into all your devices. Oh, and, by the way, your Nest thermostats. Once Google bought Nest, they started putting microphones in the Nest thermostats and applying for patents on listening devices, on how to identify sounds in the home. I'm serious, right? So this is vague. It needs to say improve within the Department of Commerce, respecting the Fourth Amendment, the First Amendment. You know what I'm saying Like in general.
Speaker 5:So you're going to need jujitsu to take on Siri.
Speaker 3:Seriously, yeah, stop, stop. I just want a dumb house in general, except as provided in paragraph two no state or political subdivision. I want always I want people to hear these words sometimes no state or political subdivision. A political subdivision, because I'll say that sometime is everything, your health district in the United States, the state of Washington, these are the United States. These are all political subdivisions of the United States of America. Because after the civil war, we went from being 50 sovereign states called the United States of America, because after the Civil War, we went from being 50 sovereign states called the United States of America to 50 political subdivisions called the United States is America. So they're all political subdivisions. So basically, this is the supremacy clause political subdivision enforced during the eight, 10 year period beginning the date of this enactment of the act.
Speaker 3:Any law or regulation of the state or a political subdivision. So no county legislation or anything like that Thereof limiting, restricting or otherwise regulating artificial intelligence models, artificial intelligence systems or automated decision systems entered into interstate commerce. By the way, everything's interstate commerce. You know how they got those guys in the federal system on felon in possession of a gun. They broke down their jurisdiction over the gun on a commerce clause on a memorandum from the ATF saying that bullets and the lead and the gunpowder and all the different ingredients have to cross state lines and if you're in possession of a bullet you don't have the tax document showing that you paid the taxes to cross the state lines with the bullets.
Speaker 3:I know it's insane how they get their jurisdiction, because normally gun crimes and things would be a common law which would be at the state level or the county level, but instead they pick up these gun laws through commerce. They have to tie everything to commerce. My charges. I don't know if you know this. I don't know if I explained this to you. So I went to the US Capitol as a United States citizen, naturally born citizen, okay, okay, at that point that's how I viewed myself, and I went to the capitol to redress my grievances to my elected representatives that were collectively housed in that building okay, yeah now.
Speaker 3:I wasn't trying to stop the election. I was trying to bring attention to fraud, et cetera, et cetera. However, the feds indicted me and in my trial for the first time I saw the Commerce Clause. How they got me in commerce? Safeway down the street from the Capitol building had a 30% less gross gasoline sales receipts than on January 6th or January 5th or whatever. So by our activity and the subsuming lockdown we were responsible in a reduction of commerce at Safeway. They included emails from DC Safeway manager to the Capitol Police not Capitol Police, metro Police indicating you know that some indication of prepared a riot or something you know like we're doing lockdown because you told us to, because of the riot or whatever.
Speaker 5:I guarantee you right now that there's everybody listening is going. Come on, this is how it works.
Speaker 3:They have to tie it in because the federal government only has jurisdiction over interstate commerce. And then that is what then, over almost 150, 200 years, converted our common law system into a admiralty law, commercial law system.
Speaker 8:That's what it is.
Speaker 5:What it sounds like you're saying, though, is that you know if there's ever a crime like this again, all they got to do is go hey, safeway, what were you low on receipts this week?
Speaker 3:This is the yes, it's against the law to interfere with a contract. So it's interesting how, like, oh, these guys had 30 percent less gas receipts. Oh, so the solution is for my business to have 100 percent less receipts.
Speaker 7:You know what I mean.
Speaker 3:Like, hey, you think we could pitch in a fund? I bet if you threw in all of our attorney fees we could make Safeway whole. You know what I mean? Sure, okay, again our politicians. You know there's a quote from Donald Trump. You know you're being led by stupid people. This is and this goes to this greater discussion about my GOP meeting the other day, where you know well who cares about a vote they took three years ago. I was like I do, you know, it's like a proven that they don't, they can't stand on principle or they haven't, you know, learned. So this is Lindsey Graham talking about the Iraq war. Now, keep in mind, we now know every single word that's coming out of his mouth is a propaganda talking point that was designed to push my generation into war.
Speaker 5:And as much as we wanted it to be, there really never was any yellow cake.
Speaker 3:There was no yellow cake. Yeah, and even if I go the most cynical perspective, I could go. Well, you're saying he has weapons of mass destruction. That's because you kept the receipts, rumsfeld. All. You're saying he has weapons of mass destruction, that's because you kept the receipts, rumsfeld, you know, back in the 80s, when you were selling them arms to fight iran, which, by the way, was the third most deadly uh engagement in, or you know, war, I guess, declared war in the last century. So you know, I mean maybe, if you stretch it like that, but oh, we're not taking responsibility, yeah, there's. They'd rather say there's no yellow cake than say, yeah, we knew we had yellow cake because we sold it to him. You know what I mean.
Speaker 2:All right. I believe that Saddam Hussein is beginning giving aid and comfort, training and assistance to al-Qaeda murderers, that he has weapons of mass destruction. He is lying when he says he doesn't and he will never voluntarily disarm. Why would you? 500 inspectors, 5,000 inspectors are not going to make him disarm.
Speaker 3:All the inspectors in the world couldn't find any of the weapons of mass destruction, before or after. He is a danger.
Speaker 3:Prove your innocence, dude. Literally I can't, bro, prove that. You don't have yellow cake hidden. Look, we can't find it. Where'd you hide it? I don't have yellow cake hidden, look, we can't find it. Where'd you hide it? I don't have any to hide. Do you see how? Like okay, maybe he has it, maybe he doesn't. You can't prove it either way, one way or the other. But all the inspectors in the world, he's just gonna keep lying. But you don't know he's lying. That's the problem. Unless you provide a receipt, do you have a receipt? I mean, I believe you if you provide the receipt and say we know, because we sold him the yellow cake and it had a, it had a 10 year return thing on it and he's supposed to give it back. You know, because America can't have consistent foreign policy more than one president.
Speaker 2:Our country in the world. He has killed his own people and you're not going to disarm him. But diplomacy is going to take.
Speaker 3:I believe that Saddam so now he, now Lindsey Graham. What's he talking about? Russia, that saddam. So now he, now lindsey graham. What's he talking about? Russia, russia, russia. He's over in ukraine meddling. This has been a big. If you followed any news this week, this has been a big story. Amongst the conservatives is lindsey.
Speaker 3:You know, right before this big attack on russia, lindsey graham is over in ukraine meeting with people and stuff like that and seems to be carrying water around for a lot of people, and then someone else shows up in ukraine this last week, along with lindsey graham and dick blumenthal mike pompeo, huh, and now keep in mind mike pompeo and linds and and uh, nikki haley, when trump was putting together his cabinet, put out a tweet says I will. They will not be around our cabinet or included in any way. Mike pompeo is part of the deep state cia director, secretary of state, like I think he I remember trump was. Mike really gets it. Mike's a real patriot. I think trump really bought into something that was going on there and then it was proven. You know, mike ended up being a real sleaze, okay, yeah, well, again, just to show by your fruits, you shall know them and this stuff matters.
Speaker 3:Conflicts of interest, these things are real. Here's mon pete, mike pompeo. I didn't know this about him, just happens to be a board member of the ukrainian telecom company kivist. Kivstar parent company vian. All roads lead back to corruption. In july 2024, pompeo presented a plan that read like a wish list for us weapons industry and ukrainian business interests creates 500 billion, lend the lease program for Ukraine to buy weapons, bulk up American defense industry and swiftly admit Ukraine to the European Union and help it modernize and develop its economy. It's not about peace. This is about money. That's why Pompeo ordered directors on this Ukrainian company.
Speaker 5:Man. I wonder what his slice is that big?
Speaker 3:big slice. He's big slice. He's half the man he used to be. He has lost some serious weight. He is half the man he used to be. So another thing that happened yesterday was pretty significant. Now you know we're all fans of elon and trump and you know all our favorite heroes. None of them are our saviors. They're not perfect, yeah they're just men this is wwe.
Speaker 3:I'm watching this with some serious intrigue. Okay, I know some things. I know some things. Right, I know some things. I know that the scenes there are people who know what's up that are trying to put the pieces together so that there can be accountability, disclosure, things like that. I know that's happening. I know that's happening in my case and other J6 cases, so I can see how it can be happening in other areas. I know things like Nancy Pelosi's laptop really did go missing on January 6th and really never was recovered. Somebody opened that thing up. Somebody knows what was on there. Patrick Byrne claims that they know and that it's in the hands of the right people and they have blackmail for ages.
Speaker 3:It would be inconceivable for me when you hear about how much corruption there potentially could be in the District of Columbia centered around Capitol Hill, how much corruption there could be. It's inconceivable to me that one day the marshals are going to show up and haul out 433 members of Congress, even Tim Burchard and Thomas Massey sitting there, like, uh, I have very no expectation that there's going to be this mass arrest moment and our whole government's going to be taken off. Right? No expectation of that. I could see a couple, I could see a couple, maybe even a dozen, maybe even that would be.
Speaker 3:Oh my gosh, that would just be huge huge but there's definitely an element in this politics and don't think for one second. This isn't like it, because I just watched this negotiation happen in a, in a publicly closed meeting, right with the republican party talking about vote trading and allowing for that. Like politics is messy, there's sausage being made, I admitted. Right, okay, so don't tell me that there's not 5d chess going on and trying to strategize and figure things out. When you hear the trump administration talk about their budget, talk about the growth. When you see numbers coming out, inflations tamp down. Uh, um, central, uh, the federal reserve of atlanta just says in third quarter they're predicting like a four percent growth rate or four huge, huge gdp growth rate like tariffs are working.
Speaker 3:Like trump flipped the switch, just like he did in 2016. I did a podcast with with my, with chris, years ago when we were talking about dirt, and I remember saying it was when trump got elected. Like he said, someone flipped a switch, right. It was like all of a sudden, the money started flowing. So something's happening right, showing up in the numbers. They're deport, deporting, they're deporting. That makes a difference. Every criminal you take off the street, that's one less petty criminal off the street Like they're. They're doing stuff. This budget bill allegedly, according to the budget office, doesn't cut revenue and this budget bill is going to add to the deficit, according to the budget office. Okay, okay.
Speaker 3:Trump endorses it. Russ Vogt designed it. Stephen Miller's a part of it. Now, who say that? Again, russ Vogt, he's the, he's the guy that's. He's one of Trump's appointees. He's doing the budgeting on this stuff.
Speaker 5:Okay.
Speaker 3:I can't remember his exact position, but he's, you know. And there's other people that are big hitters Scott Besson other people are big hitters.
Speaker 5:And this is the big, beautiful bill.
Speaker 3:Yes, I know nothing about this bill. Now, part of the problem with this big beautiful bill is it has no cuts because this is all discretionary spending which, if you remember, is mandatory. Ok, the discretionary, mandatory spending which is discretionaryary. They can do a rescissions package. So trump sent a rescissions package, but it's only for nine billion. We're trying to get to a trillion so you know, you only got 902 more.
Speaker 5:You got a lot to go to get to.
Speaker 3:Yeah, so there's been a lot of like what's going on here stephen miller, russ, voight. They said we want structural change. Budget change can come after we need structural change. You know change can come after we need structural change. You know all the border stuff, the systems. We can go after everything else, but we got to get structural change. Without structural change, everything happens slow.
Speaker 3:Like we're going to get rid of a department? Yeah, and we'll notice, like the AI decision making. Yep, you're guilty of fraud. Okay yeah, no, we're're gonna be charging you. Oh so, no more research. No, I got the whole. It provided a whole file here. I got all your communications. Oh no, it looks like it's a conspiracy too. Oh yeah, you can communicate with them. Yeah, well, co-defendant, please expand on that grok exactly okay.
Speaker 3:So very scary, very scary okay. But this is what happens when you let corruption blossom. Pretty soon you got to get the weed whacker out. You know what I mean. Like if you got to field weeds, you gotta, you gotta, start ripping that field. Eventually you're tilling it. Eventually your scorched earth burning it. You know what I mean. All you got left is the very essence of who you are. There's nothing left. That's okay.
Speaker 3:So, having said all that, there was a big revelation in a press conference yesterday with carolyn levitt about some of these things. And keep in mind when katherine austin fits talks about 21 trillion dollars of this 36 trillion dollar deficit we have is unaccounted for. Like, where, how'd we get there? Well, you know 21 trillion dollars was spent in things like underground bases which don't show up on budgets. You know what I mean. So it's missing. We knew right before 9-11 we had a trillion dollars missing out of the pentagon right, and that was 20 years ago yeah, four years ago. That's just amplified. Like it's never stopped.
Speaker 3:She talks about the patriarch allowed them to move money. There's other things too with administratively. They've done things on the money side to basically allow them to break all the rules in order to move money out of the united states, because the united states was never wasn't seen as going to be able to pay it back. They prefer the china model, where they can squeeze some blood out of the turnip, okay, and in the china model, money doesn't matter, it's everything else. Like, china doesn't believe in money, they know it's not real. Okay, that's why they manipulate it as much as they do. It's a tool, okay. Real money managers understand that.
Speaker 3:So, having said that, there's no way to get a clean set of numbers, whatever money. You know when trump, when, when elon exposed that there were magic money printers. These are money printers that just print, like there's no congressional reason, there's no authorization, there's no account, with the money sitting there and you draw it down and you submitted it. It's just print like 14 or 21 of these that he found in the buildings, like just magic money printers. Like, oh yeah, you need a billion dollars to go dig a hole in the desert of Nevada. There you go. Where does that go? It shows up on the deficit, but you know this budget's huge. It just gets lost in the mix and that's literally what was happening. Like that's how out of I've.
Speaker 3:I've described it as the magical printer in the sky, like there's not even appropriations for some of the stuff they spend money on. That is what I was saying. You can see it, I can see it. Don't ask me not to believe my lying eyes. Finally, elon Musk and Doge get to go behind the curtain for 120 days and they're like we actually found the printers that will just print a treasury check, the caches. We actually went to the treasury and found out there doesn't have to be a description as to where the check is going or what invoice it's coming from, or to who remember all this stuff.
Speaker 5:Yeah, they had a 100% yes on the print button.
Speaker 3:Okay, so in a world like that and you want to go buy a bond you don't know, there's no prospectus, there's no sound financial decision-making. This is purely from a gut.
Speaker 3:Do I trustica or not? Nope, are we agreement capable? It's hard to tell. Okay, there's nothing real here. The congressional budget office, well, but the math's the math, says someone like thomas mancy or ran paul, the math's the math, you're not bringing enough money in on tariffs. Then why is inflation at zero? Why is the? Why is the accounts getting bigger? Why is the freaking ice sheet getting bigger? Bro, you guys don't know anything. So here's Carolyn Leavitt exposing something that should have been really obvious to all of us, because we can see with our eyes.
Speaker 3:People know this If you can't be accountable on your transacting, how's anybody going to budget? If you can't figure out where the $21 trillion go, you think anybody created a budget prior to that? That you know, foresaw that, so you know, back when we quote unquote, had a balanced budget, but we really didn't. I don't know. Do we really know that we didn't, or did even even just more recent budgets? Well, it looks like we have a deficit, but do we? I know who knows, who knows what we're really spending. We have no idea. China. China manipulates their currency. Every major empire in history towards the fall starts shaving the edge off the gold coins, changing the weights and measures regulations you know what I mean.
Speaker 3:Because why? Because we just can't. We got to make it last. So what's happening here? Well, when you don't have gold coins to shave the edge off, what do you do? Just print more. This is the weimar republic stuff. China does this. It's just pump the money into the economy. As long as you think it buys a gallon of milk, we're good. You know, by the time the the enough money circulates to raise the price of milk through inflation. I mean, look at any chart, looking at the gold standard to the dollar. Gold hasn't one freaking bit.
Speaker 3:You can still take 10 ounces of gold and go buy a starter home Period 10 ounces of gold in 1950. Bought a starter home. 10 ounces of gold in 1900. Bought a starter home, 10 ounces of gold. Today. Buys a starter home, 10 ounces of gold. Bought a Greek toga, a Roman toga, a British suit, london fog suit. It buys an Italian custom suit today. One ounce of gold. The spendability never freaking changes, but the values. And how many yen are you going to spend on this? You know, have you ever bought a pack of gum for 25 billion yen? That's where we're going, you know. So here's the budget office and Carolyn Leavitt drops this bomb.
Speaker 11:So point out I don't think many people know know this there hasn't been a single staffer in the entire congressional budget office that has contributed to a republican since the year 2000. But guess what? There have been many staffers within the congressional budget office who have contributed to democrat candidates and politicians every single cycle since. So this is an institution in our country that has become partisan and political and we are very confident in our own economic analyses of this bill. There is $1.6 trillion in savings and our Office of Management and Budget Director, russ Fott, is a fiscal hawk. He is well-known in this city for being a well-respected fiscal hawk. He has tools at his disposal to produce even more savings and, as you know, the White House will be sending our rescissions package to Capitol Hill today and I'm going to point out OK wow, do you trust the budget?
Speaker 3:Do you trust their projections on all these tax cuts are going to cost this much and you don't have any revenue and our economy is dying. And then here comes Obama and he's like let's bail out the auto industry, let's bail out some banks, let's roll, let's roll, let's do this. And they're like oh, budget's almost balanced, it's just a minor investment in our future.
Speaker 5:We just need a little bit of hope and change A little hope and change and that's all I'll go.
Speaker 3:You know what? What? Of course these are politicians, these are these are. They live in dc. Of course they're on the dole one way or the other. I don't know how to explain it, but I can believe my. I can believe my eyes. You're all democrats, no matter what republican was in office. It's going to be a bad budget. It's horrible. They're cutting medicaid. It's the worst right if it's a republican.
Speaker 3:It's like we have to fund gay marriage. We've got to do it. The kids need to change their genders. This is a completely great investment in our future. By allowing our children to become transgender, it will result in $8 zillion in net growth. We've just got to be a little bit more progressive. This reminds me of that general that was like we need to elect Kamala Harris because our enemies around the world will know that are serious about anti-racism.
Speaker 3:You were a four-star general kamala harris needs to be elected, because then our enemies will know we're serious about ending segregation and racism. Finally, oh really, go try to be something other than han chinese in china. Go try to not be japanese in japan. You know what I mean? Like, give me a freaking break. Good heavens, these people are just stupid, right, it's just stupid. So meanwhile, at the precise moment, right, it's just stupid. So meanwhile, at the precise moment that Carolyn Leavitt does that, that that press conference, elon Musk's Elon Musk breaks and he says a tweet. I'm sorry, I just can't stand it anymore.
Speaker 3:This massive, outrageous, pork filled congressional spending bill is a disgusting abomination. Shame on those who voted for it. You, you know you did wrong. You know it, okay. What does elon know that we don't know? I don't know. Does he think that the office of budget numbers are accurate? I don't know. See, this is the thing you know in elementary school show your work, show your work. Right, as parents, when we see the kids as common core math, we're like show your work. And we're like what's that? That's how I feel here. Like show your work. Well, here's, here's a bunch of papers. What am I looking at?
Speaker 8:First you got to take all these tens and you got to separate them out and these decimal places.
Speaker 3:It's good to move and yeah, exactly like so. Okay, so a couple things going on here.
Speaker 8:Here's steve bannon talking about this, so he has on this uh, capoto cap reporter who, and this is what they say- Because these are brutal set of tweets that came out really on the eve of President Trump at the Finance Committee of the Senate and President Trump really working hard on this bill Big time and to be clear, like CNN said it pretty right, this was and I put in my story this was timed to happen when caroline levitt, the white house press secretary, was at the podium.
Speaker 4:This was done by elon musk. Don't sell him short. This is done to cause maximum damage and impact. It was personal from elon musk.
Speaker 8:His feelings were hurt but that's my okay, that's my point. He did it, for he did it to maximize the damage and to embarrass caroline the president, the white house, all of it, and make it harder and give you know, and give, uh, and I'm, and I'm.
Speaker 3:Listen, we have problems with this bill also, but there's a way to do things because so on bannon's war room, they have figured out that this is not the discretionary spending bill which is mandatory, or the other way around. This is the one where it's going to do the structural, but they can go change these budgets after the fact. The next one is the one that's discretionary spending that they can't change those budgets after the fact. So that's where the real cuts are supposed to come and those can come in series. It's like $9 billion rescissions package, sign it off.
Speaker 3:I think what they're going to do is they're going to break those up into like PBS, npr and then a couple other things, and it's like I dare you not to defund NPR and PBS because that's really popular to do amongst them. You know what I'm saying. So they'll defund it and then they'll send another one that'll have one or two really popular rescissions with a bunch of other smaller stuff that normally would make it through like would be nobody's. Nobody's gonna die on that hill in front of the public to keep funding a tortoise study in the nevada desert right, it'll be like the reverse of uh porkfield bill yes, where it's like I dare you like.
Speaker 3:How are you gonna sit up and be like I cannot defund the lying pravda NPR because the tortoises in Southwest Nevada are being threatened by wild Mustangs? You know what I mean. Like that's the kind of they're not doing it.
Speaker 3:They're going to be like defund NPR, f you tortoises. So that's, I think, what they're setting up. I don't know. I am. I've watched Elon Musk in front of Trump. I've seen the things they said about each other. There's a part of me that feels like if you're talking about some collusion on how to pin chopping off the pork now and give the structural changes, while at the same time trump's like we're gonna get this bill, I got the blackmail on you you know what I mean it's a.
Speaker 3:It feels like a pincer move. Trump says I'm as big as fiscal hawk as anybody. We have a country to rebuild, so he does need an increased budget for some things, but he needs to also get some structural changes which would then allow him to clean up the ground. Troops of the left, aka all these illegals which would then take away their ability to counter, move later down the road when you start having marshals walking into the Senate.
Speaker 5:I love your vision. I'm I'm concerned.
Speaker 3:Of course it's all just. I mean we're just randomly you know, I mean, I'm not Q, but I'm T, you know.
Speaker 5:Well, my brain is going oh man is. Does Elon know something about Trump that we don't, and that he's really part of the machine, just like all the other blob monsters, is like.
Speaker 3:So here we are and I want to show you this. So we're on Elon Musk here. So I scroll down a couple little bit and again, elon is an eccentric. He's just going to tweet stuff, this because it's fun, but he's also very focused and he's not ignorant to the media and stuff like that clearly. So he had. He had this tweet just the other day.
Speaker 5:I actually believe that your thought logic pattern is way better than my fear, Well more likely.
Speaker 3:Yeah. So here Elon Musk just prior to this earlier in the day. He says don't even read the legacy media, it's just noise and propaganda. I stopped long ago.
Speaker 5:Oh yeah.
Speaker 3:Attempts to answer the question what's the worst thing on Earth today? That is sure to make you sad. So what does he want to do? So what's the legacy news? With that, hours before Carolyn Leavitt goes, the budget's bunk, you can't listen to those partisans over there that are saying this bill's going to cost money. We're telling you it's $1.7 trillion in savings. We're telling you it's 1.7 trillion in savings. We're confident and you've got the house over there going. Please don't arrest me, okay and and. But I want to make my, my, don't I? I've got blackmail from two angles here. I've got to vote for trump's bill, but I got to cut some pork. But I got to leave some pork to not expose myself. Do you see what I'm saying?
Speaker 3:like yeah, yeah these are real things that are going on in all these people's heads, especially when you factor in the personal liability that some of them may have. I mean that's, we know that. Now it's just a matter of who you know who's going to be the next Bob Menendez, who's going to be the next George Santos? And, by the way, there's going to be a lot of people, and I don't know a lot. I don't know what the number is somebody. Somehow, if things go down where people start having held accountable, you're going to have a lot of people that we're going to look at and go. Why are they being charged with tax fraud, not murder? Al capone story, right, it's going to be one of those deals like they're going to get them on something that we're like, but, but not rico charges.
Speaker 3:Yes, yeah, not rico, you're getting them on something to listen. It's the process, is the punishment? Okay, it doesn't matter what you're going through. Your life gets peeled apart when you're going to trial with prison on the line. Yeah, so. So he's saying don't believe the legacy media. Simultaneously, right. So after he tweeted, I just can't take it anymore he starts tweeting out some random paul who says he's not going to vote for the the bill because the cuts aren't deep enough, which, again, if your actual goal is to make cuts, this is a good play, right, get the squishes that are afraid of being primaried to get the pressure to push towards the ran paul uh side of the cuts, which everybody's happy with the cuts, yeah, and I don't. But ran paul also has some conflicted interest too. He runs on the fiscal hawk thing, but I I should have pulled up. He's got some conflicting interests too. As to other other very plausible explanations why he not, might not want to vote for this bill, okay, so even some of our heroes like again you know, don't get too attached.
Speaker 3:so then he goes on and he, he just continues to talk about. He posts a whole bunch of stuff about budget numbers and things like that. Okay so, mainstream news Politico this is that Mike Caputo story. Actually, no, this is Lisa Kaczynski, mia McCarthy and Catherine Tolley McManus, because not one, you know, takes three people to write an article. Musk's latest mega bill. You know, if we put our heads together, ron, we could really accomplish a lot.
Speaker 3:Yeah, I mean, we could totally kick out 2000 words a day. We could probably even bring in a third Elon Musk declaration that the GOP's domestic style mega bill the centerpiece of President Trump's legislative agenda is. A disgusting abomination rocketed around Capitol Hill on Tuesday and frustrated a host of Republican lawmakers. Website blog called politico that was taking eight million dollars in usaid funds, which, by the way, is about the equivalent or more than all of their staff salaries.
Speaker 3:Oh geez 100 house speaker mike johnson has just gaveled the house into session after quiet recess this week. He immediately declared must take on the house product. Terribly wrong and very disappointing. And revealed he'd walk the tech mogul through the bill as recently as monday. Senate majority leader john thune characters characteristically diplomatic and the only gop senators have a difference of opinion with musk and that he hoped he'll come to a different conclusion. Um chuck schumer, emerging from the democratic lunch with a print of of the post and giddily telling reporters I agree with el Elon Musk.
Speaker 3:Of course whether Musk, with all the power he wielded in Washington over the past several months, we'll now be able to shape a mega bill or kill entirely, is another question. He's entitled to his opinion, said Tom Tillis no. Whether his message would affect the bill, he says no. So anyways, I like Elon, but he's just one man, says Kevin Kramer. So you're starting to see, you can kind of see a little pressure there. So you're going to let Elon kill the bill. They're trying to split the base. You know what I mean Trying to get the base to think that they're divided. What if this is one of those plays where Trump's like listen, I got to keep the rhinos on my side, so I need the pressure to come from you on the outside.
Speaker 3:I gotta keep the rhinos on my side so I need the pressure to come from you on the outside. Yeah, do you see what I'm saying? Yeah, because I got, because I need the border and I need this and I need that and I can't let them bargain with me. But you can bargain with them by threatening their seat and primary them.
Speaker 3:Yep okay I'm not saying that is happening no, but it's okay because simultaneously, like scott besant and elon musk apparently don't don't quite get along, even though they say they do. But again, who knows scoop. Four reasons musk attacks the big beautiful bill, another legacy media axios that elon musk just told us not to read. But like dogs to our vomit we go. Four reason musk attack to trump's big beautiful bill. Okay, number one uh, elon was butthurt, said one source just always got to throw that in there.
Speaker 3:Yeah, even if you only had three reasons, now you got four apparently elon musk and scott besant gotten a huge yelling argument in the white house where elon musk was like you're not even a very good ceo and you ran a hedge fund into the ground, and they were like I hate you and I hate you. Elon Musk wanted, I think, letnick to be Secretary of Commerce, and Besant wanted, or Secretary of Treasury, and Besant ended up winning out on that, and so Letnick ended up at Commerce. And you know, keep in mind Elon Musk yeah, he's great, but he's got his own thing. Keep in mind Elon Musk yeah, he's great, but he's got his own thing. I don't love his business in China, but as an entrepreneur, how could you not do business in China the last 20 years? Yeah, so some of these guys I do think there's some of them that are like you know, the carrots and sticks of business took me here, but donkey didn't really want to go. Like that's, I do think there's going to. There is some of that for sure. Elon Musk, like that's, I do think there's going to, there is some of that for sure. Elon Musk, probably that way, if he could pull out of China, he might. I don't know that he, I don't know, though no doubt he's carried water for China in the past, though, and again.
Speaker 3:Sometimes, business wise, everything's hunky dory, and then you run into the wall of tyranny, and I think that's what happens. You know, oh, the business is great. They journey, and I think that's what happens. You know, oh, the business is great. They oh, look, they capitalize us. We built this factory. The bottom line is great. Hey, why are the lights on at night? I don't worry, wait, what's going on here? Don't worry, we have a contract, but but you're not supposed to be using the facility at night to sell on alibaba. We're doing that. Okay, I'm gonna take you to court. No, you can't go to court, not in China. See what I'm saying? Yeah, like oh. Then, all of a sudden, you run into the wall of despotism and you're like yeah, I don't like this.
Speaker 3:Okay, four reasons why Elon Musk doesn't like the bill. And this is what's great about this show. Let's get to a real reason. All the little tid. Legislation cuts the electric vehicle tax. That helps car makers like Tesla. Musk, tesla, as of late April, his company had spent at least 240,000 lobbying on behalf of the credit and other company matters Behind the scenes. Sources say Musk also advocated for the measure in the legislation, but to no avail. Does this ring true to you?
Speaker 3:Didn't we just watch a clip from Elon Musk about subsidies and the EV credit and he says delete it. Do you remember this?
Speaker 3:yeah, this doesn't ring true we just heard elon musk with his big head on a massive screen in front of hundreds of people, yeah, being asked about the bill and the ev credit could delete it. I'm not lobbying for it. We don't need subsidies for gas stations. Yeah, we don't need subsidies for cars. I didn't want, ford wanted, I don't want it. Yep, so is that reason number one why he doesn't like the bill? Because the ev credit didn't make it? Isn't that what elon wanted out of his own mouth?
Speaker 3:reason number one is he was butthurt reason number two musk was working at the white house as what he called a special government employee and had discussed trying to stay on that role beyond the 130 day time limit set by statute for an unpaid advisory position, but ultimately white house officials said he couldn't keep serving in that capacity. Is that true or false? From day one, we knew he was only going to be around for 130 days. Yeah, he talked about that openly. Yeah, he doesn't want to be in the cabinet or have an appointed position. It's not about the money.
Speaker 3:It's not like he doesn't have anything else going on like he doesn't have anything else, like I'm pretty sure this is precisely what was planned and intended from the beginning. Yeah, okay, um so, but remember how they tried to make it whole. Elon's trying to be the dictator and he's running the show yeah now in order to paint elon's bad. Well, he didn't get his. His golden seat at the at the right hand of don Trump, he's not co-vice president. You see what I'm saying.
Speaker 5:Yeah, yeah, yeah Is this, but he will be back.
Speaker 3:He's still around. Yeah, you don't leave. Listen, if you're on the speed dial of the president, you never left. Yeah, just because you're not in the room next door doesn't mean you're not there, right? Musk also there. Right? Musk also wanted the federal aviation administration to use starlink satellite system for national air traffic control, the sources said. But the administration balked at it because of the appearance of a conflict of interest and for technological reasons. You can't have air traffic control just run off satellites. The second source said.
Speaker 5:I don't know anything about that that sounds like a topic you could talk about, but I don't think that's it a deal kill like a right.
Speaker 3:No, okay now the final straw for musk appeared to become saturday night, when trump abruptly announced he was withdrawing the nomination jared isaac mink, a musk ally, to be a nasa administrator. I don't know anything about this guy basically just hated trump and donated democrats. Trump wanted to be the nasa director. Apparently he's got. He's a good technical knowledge guy, but his values aren't aligned. So trump just said, based on his prior associations, I'm taking him out because that's a lot of power there yeah, you know any of these.
Speaker 3:The thing with these bureaucracies what you have to recognize is they're fiefdoms, they're little kingdoms so when you put someone in charge of nasa, they have a budget which, well, heaven forbid, they have a magic money printer. Right, they've got a budget. They've got top secret clearances. You can hide documents there. They've got in investigator generals.
Speaker 5:They can, well they've got to have some autonomy over that budget it's not.
Speaker 3:It's not just the autonomy, but it's it's raw power. I mean, you know, any of these agencies can hide things. Any of these agencies can you know be a?
Speaker 5:seat of the deep.
Speaker 3:Well, those budgets are large enough in and of themselves that they are the power and when you think about this, you know we talked about ezra taft benson but when he was the secretary of agriculture and he was talking, he was talking a lot about infiltration of the communists into the department of agriculture. Why? Food supply land. You know farmers. This is like you can't control money if you can't control food, kind of stuff. This was back in like the 60s.
Speaker 3:What if I told you that the way the communists through subversion because remember, they learned a lot in the russian revolution on how to make this work and what does and doesn't work and in infiltration, is better, what, what? What area has less people thinking national security and spies than the department of agriculture? Just a bunch of hick farmers and ranchers, right, and some, yeah, some chicken farmers. They're a completely different breed. Yeah, okay, so why not infiltrate there and then operate out of there, recruit into there, get people into the civil service, because once you become a you know, a deputy secretary of the budget office of agriculture, why not move over to commerce? And the next thing you know, you're working at the, the house of representatives, in the budget office the department of defense, because that's how it works right.
Speaker 3:Oh yeah, you're good at managing numbers, you're good at managing employees, and so they, they get their little civil service, you know. And then it's just, and they just start moving around. Oh, I'm looking for a promotion. So what do you do? You move whole departments. You know that's how they do it. That's what the civil service does. So does he really want that? I don't know the the NASA thing. I could see how he'd be a little bit upset, but upset enough to be like take the bill, it's over. Yeah, come on man. No, don't believe the legacy media. I don't know what's going on here. Maybe elon's really pissed, maybe the numbers are bad, maybe the white house is lying to us, or or against all the odds of everything we've seen happening.
Speaker 3:You're you're viewing it's part of the plan. This is the wwe masterpiece. Yep, this is what you're watching. The potential pension move. This isn't q stuff. This could all fall apart because nobody knows the end from the beginning. When you're at war. We're at war with china, clearly. We're at war with the deep state, clearly. We're at war with the globalists, clearly, right we're?
Speaker 5:I mean and just like mike tyson says, everybody has a plan until you get punched in the face yep, exactly, exactly, um and then you know, the war plans change okay.
Speaker 3:So in the diddy diddy trial, oh, apparently cia makes an appearance.
Speaker 3:Oh, we got this mia character who was doing appointments for diddy and somehow got connected with Mike Myers, the actor an ax murder actor, Austin Powers actor and Mike Myers, through Diddy's lip lady that was testifying, arranged a behind the scenes tour of the CIA office building in Langley. Oh behave, I'm going to have lunch with CIA officers and this whole. And this was all arranged through Diddy's assistant, who's also a sex slave. So I'm just saying you could just arrange a private tour because you are Diddy's secretary CIA. My God, they're gross. It's pretty powerful. These people are horrendous horrible people the worst possible things you can imagine about them they're all true they're all true.
Speaker 3:They deserve no benefit of the doubt. None, zero zilch. I don't care what you say.
Speaker 5:Epstein killed himself you just look like a rabid tickle me elbow. This is crazy.
Speaker 3:tickle me elbow. Crazy, diddy, crazy, tickle me elbow. This is crazy. Diddy's going to get basically he's going to get convicted because there's a video of him beating his wife. All the other stuff is just like what the heck? But clearly Kamala Harris went to these parties. We know, lebron ain't no party like a P Diddy party, lebron James, you know what I mean. Like, these people are horrible humans. Yeah, they are, and this is coming from an insurrectionist. I mean geez. The other thing, too, is this judicial coup won't go away. Oh, I won't go away. So this is Eric Smith, senator out of Missouri. I kind of really like these Missouri senators, josh Hawley and Eric Smith.
Speaker 5:Can you think of any other state where you can name both senators? Well, Washington, because they haven't changed for 30 years.
Speaker 3:Who's the other senator? There's a California senator, you've got Adam Schiff, and who's the other one?
Speaker 5:It's funny.
Speaker 3:If you name them, I know them, but then like randomly to be like who are the two senators from Maine? Well, I know Collins is up there, that dirt bag. You know what I mean. Okay, so this is Eric Schmidt talking about rigging cases by the judges. This is coming from someone who is the attorney general of Missouri.
Speaker 12:In March, chief Justice Boasberg, right here in DC, has found himself into four major Trump cases a statistical impossibility. Boasberg took over the Alien Enemies Act and ordered planes to be turned around in the dead of night, despite not being the emergency judge on duty that night. It seems clear that as chief judge, he wants to be able to grab cases for himself. I've had firsthand experience with this non-random case assignment in our federal appellate court system.
Speaker 12:When I was attorney general in Missouri, I often found myself litigating in the Eighth Circuit, a circuit of unique makeup. Of the 11 judges in the circuit, 10 had been appointed by Republicans, yet the one Democrat, appointee Judge Jane Kelly, found herself hearing nearly every political sensitive case in the circuit. Political sensitive case in the circuit. Time after time, case after case, miracle after miracle for the Democrats, judge Kelly would be there for nearly every politically sensitive case. This was not due to the good luck of Judge Kelly. The circuit clerk's office, which assigned cases to appellate panels, was filled with her former clerks and ideological compatriots. In practice, they set the nationwide policy by rigging case assignment.
Speaker 3:That, my friends, is how you lose a Republic. Yeah, because we don't believe that sitting on a telecom company in Ukraine when you're the former secretary of state and CIA director and then you're advocating for more war is maybe a conflict of interest no, because we don't think oh, but mike pompeo, he's from kansas and he prays to jesus. He's baptist, don't you know? Or I don't? Maybe he's not, maybe I can't, I'm pretty sure he's some evangelical.
Speaker 5:Well, whoever gets one percent of 500 billion dollars or whatever, yeah sure yeah, I.
Speaker 3:You look at some of these, buy your fruits. You shall know them. Like, listen man, associations matter, you know, like it's not a perfect system, it's not guilty by association all the time, but it's suspicious by association. You know, I'm not saying sitting on a board is a bad thing. I'm not saying that at all by any stretch. But I'm just saying there's a reason you're on the board. You're not there because you're a good accountant. You're not there. You're there because of influence. You're there because of clout. You're there because you have the ability to persuade or to set a direction or to stand on principle, something. For some reason they invited you.
Speaker 3:Mike, do you speak ukrainian? Are you familiar with? You know what's your telecom expertise and, as far as I can tell, you've basically been a government employee for going on 30 years. You know you're a programmer. No, what are you? Oh, you're. You're peddler. You're an influencer. You got a rolodex. You know we have to start to reckon all the clerks where you all clerked for the one democrat judge on the appellate panel, and she gets all the politically sensitive you all donate money.
Speaker 5:Oh, we have immunity.
Speaker 3:The process I don't know, maybe we should let ai make the decisions. I don't know, maybe that is. That is the solution. You know, like this is crazy. Another crazy thing that's going on and this kind of affects me a little bit.
Speaker 3:This is the capitol hill police. So the capitol hill police chief they appointed, uh, this gentleman named sean gallagher as interim chief of the police force. Now he was appointed by mike johnson. Gallagher is one of these people. There's another lieutenant, uh, terrick johnson, who basically says that J six, they set us up, they set up the protesters and the cops that day, and he blames the white shirts and he's got all the evidence and blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. But it's really niche J six stuff, the U S Capitol police officers.
Speaker 3:So this is the United States Capitol police labor committee. Right, and the T tarik raised the issue because sean gallagher got moved up into the chief of police and he's like sean gallagher thinks j6 was an insurrection and every misdemeanor who walked in there is a terrorist and he's going to bury any information. He will absolutely make sure that the truth never comes out. He's just super committed to that. Well, apparently, someone who would be that stickler on it has a couple issues, and this comes from the labor. The capitol police labor committee, the us capitol police officers union, is urging the us capitol police board to immediately reconsider its decision to name sean gallagher as interim chief of the us capitol police force.
Speaker 3:This is the imperial capital, this is the capital of the united states, which, by the way, they now have offices in san francisco and florida and a couple other places. So they've become, you know how, the FBI, kind of became the Department of Justice's little police force, where investigative unit and a terror unit and a communications unit, and they have offices, satellite offices, in San Francisco and Florida. Why, right, they become their own intelligence agency. Okay, to protect the Congressman and stuff like that.
Speaker 3:All right, the U S cap. So he's been named as chief you know, cap interim chief of the Capitol Police Force. In April, the union publicly advocated for the Capitol Police Board to choose a new chief with integrity, who has earned the trust of the frontline officers, to succeed retiring chief J Thomas Manger. Instead, the board has elevated an individual who has previously been recommended for termination from the force following allegations of his involvement in a scheme to defraud the USCP of thousands of dollars in an overtime scam. Further, gallagher was among senior officials whose failures on January 6th 2021, saw Capitol Police officers unprepared and overwhelmed by rioters during the attack on the Capitol. Union Chairman Gus Papapathasunalu says by any measure, sean Gallagher fails to meet the standard of trust integrity required to lead the US Capitol Police Force. We're astounded that the board would even consider Gallagher for the role. Listen to this next sentence. The Capitol Police Force cannot continue. Continue to see problem officers fail upwards, winning promotions instead of demotions commensurate with their actions. Believe your eyes. The day after january 6th, the number two in charge of the sergeant at arms I can't remember his exact position, but he was the number two in charge of the sergeant at arms. I can't remember his exact position, but he was the number two in charge was indicted on child pornography charges. Failing, they continue to take officers that should be demoted or fired and they promote them. This is that concept of you corrupt up. It's your corrupt action that qualifies you to go up, because the people even higher that are corrupt know that they've got you. They got you. Yeah, right here the following for the failures of uspc leadership us uscp leadership.
Speaker 3:In the january 6th attack, the union undertook a vote of no confidence in its leaders, with 84 percent of the officers voting against then acting assistant chief Sean Gallagher. Referencing the overtime billing claims 84 percent of the officers voting against. An acting assistant chief, sean Gallagher. Yeah, let's make him captain. Oh yeah, he's a great leader. I'll follow him into battle. Don't follow him into battle.
Speaker 3:According to the us uscp whistleblower, gallagher forged his time sheets to avoid a cap on overtime so he could be paid more. This is not only a violation of policy, but is also illegal. If a frontline officer did that, they would be fired and most likely referred to the us attorney's office for criminal prosecution. But instead let's put him in charge. An internal uscp memo following an investigation into the fraud stated the offense is egregious and absent of any mitigating factors warrants nothing less than termination Wow. Instead, gallagher has continued to be promoted through the ranks.
Speaker 3:Chairman says the Capitol Police Board should remove Gallagher as interim chief and should not be under serious consideration as successor to Chief Manger. He says the job of chief of the US Capitol Police is a crucial role, role that must be filed filled by a leader who is trusted by the officers. It is their job to not only enforce the law but also to abide by it. If the capital police board was previously unaware of this information, they have it now. Certainly gallagher's misconduct and the union's vote of no confidence were broadly known throughout the department. We ask that the board rescind and the interim appointment and we look forward to consulting with the board on choosing a new chief who can lead the force with the trust of its officers so and that by the way, is the most diplomatic way you can say some of the allegations against.
Speaker 5:Oh yeah, these guys did a great job of craft in this letter, so what I want to know is who the hell are these guys on the board?
Speaker 3:it's appointed, it's all the house representatives. It's appointed by ron johnson, I mean that's okay ron johnson's in charge, he's he's the president of the executive function of the capital. Like that's his department ron johnson.
Speaker 5:I thought he was a good dude, I guess not who knows what the hell's going on. I mean, that board sounds like they're carrying the water for whoever is, you know, scamming all of us because he's promoting these guys that are, you know, scammed.
Speaker 3:Why did Mike McCarthy not move into Nancy Pelosi's office when he became Speaker of the House? Why didn't he take the Speaker's office? Why did he let Nancy stay there?
Speaker 8:I don't know.
Speaker 3:I don't know. I mean, who's in charge? Who's on these boards? Oh yeah, we got this board, don? They're bipartisan. I mean we don't even care who they vote for, or anything like that.
Speaker 5:It's all nancy's I know, but when you have a department like that that writes such a scathing letter of like, how could he even consider this guy? It's like somebody has to look at the board oh, I know, and that's the thing.
Speaker 3:This is where the laura loomers of the world and the data republicans of the world are coming in really handy, because they are. They're like let me just ask grok about you, what's your family tree look like? You know what I mean it's like golly.
Speaker 3:I mean there's nothing wrong with successful families and stuff like that. There's nothing wrong with networking and you know a conspiracy to do good and to create wealth and things like that. There is a. There is something wrong with conspiracy to commit fraud or to deprive others of their rights or to, you know, infringe upon their liberties and things like that. Those are bad things. Yeah, so I'm not saying you can't have a family that's got political tentacles all over the place. It the place. It's like the american dream. Yeah, right, the problem is is when you see the graft and the corruption, is when you put those tentacles out to become a crime family. I mean that's the biden thing. It's like, dude, you guys have no business. You've been in the business of influence and persuasion and politics and we pay you for that. You're supposed to be our influencer, you're supposed to be our representative, not xyz corporation. You know it's the whole idiocracy thing.
Speaker 5:You may as well just start wearing you know your, your affiliations like ask our uniforms you know, what I really hate is when politicians like to use the word serve like they're serving us and it's like dude, you know.
Speaker 3:Service that that is interesting because to me, like you've engaged in a commercial enterprise, you're bargaining your time. That's not service. Service is sacrifice. You and I, as Boy Scout leaders, have spent many, many hours cleaning trails, doing cleanup at elderly women's house helping families move.
Speaker 3:Actual service free of charge, no cost. Didn't always even eat the pizza they provided. You know what I mean. Like that is service, and we normally don't go around telling people about it. Service free of charge, no cost. Didn't always even eat the pizza they provided, you know right, like that is service. So when it comes.
Speaker 5:We normally don't go around telling people about it and we definitely don't go around going. Oh, look at me how I served you.
Speaker 3:I have you know I have a hard time with that too. It's like, well, I'm off first line, if I would get, I'm sure I'm serving. I'm like you got paid like you paid like you didn't. You know, you didn't get drafted, you didn't get like randomly selected you've been administrating.
Speaker 5:You haven't been serving serving.
Speaker 3:You're just working, like you're just a working man. You know you cash your check, rome pays you. You're good, you know like I, I get it, but don't yeah, I, I have a hard time with the. I'm serving, I'm like serving the american public, okay I've been.
Speaker 5:I've been working in government for 50 years serving the american public.
Speaker 3:That's come on I mean, am I not doing that? Am I not serving the american public, like when I'm doing my landscaping? Am I not making things nice for me, am I not?
Speaker 5:serving with also totally degrades the actual service of our service. Men and women in the armed forces yeah, I get tired of this whole whoa. We're serving the american well you know what I mean.
Speaker 3:Companies say we provide. So I guess if you say you're serving, you're the one that's for sale.
Speaker 5:So I guess no, no, no, that's different.
Speaker 3:Well, let's just extend it to where it can. We can accommodate for them.
Speaker 5:Okay, right.
Speaker 3:All right. So last thing again, just to show the media bias that go with thing, pbs, npr how they see themselves versus how they actually are. And this is again see it, see it with your own eyes.
Speaker 9:When people say we see bias in your program programs, I don't understand the criticism.
Speaker 7:It's not just making an issue of Biden's age. It's lying. It's saying he's senile, saying he's demented, saying he's out of it. I mean, I think it's important to sort of state for a fact that a lot of these are just right Mentally he's quite acute, seems like it.
Speaker 6:Yeah, I don't understand how this narrative has developed that no one in the media that the media was covering for Biden. I think what might be going on here is a lack of understanding about how reporting works.
Speaker 9:I have never seen any instance of political bias determining editorial decisions. No, why haven't you seen any stories from?
Speaker 2:NPR about the New York Post's Hunter Biden story. We don't want to waste our time on stories that are not really stories, and we don't want to waste the listeners' and readers' time on stories that are just pure distractions.
Speaker 6:If you think PBS is biased compared to who, name one news organization in America and I shouldn't be defending this, I get paid by PBS but I'm going to do it. Who's more straight down the line than we are If federal enforcement agencies come to your courtroom and you help a guy escape? That is two things. One it strikes me as maybe something illegal, but it also strikes me as something heroic.
Speaker 9:Our people are on the line, and I think that not only do they do that, they do so with a mission that very few other broadcast organizations have, which is a requirement to serve the entire public.
Speaker 10:We have seen, though, I should note, republican rhetoric veer into outright racism, echoing some white supremacist notions as well this week 82 years ago, kristallnacht happened and in that tower of burning books it led to an attack on fact, knowledge, history and truth. After four years of a modern day assault on those same values by Donald Trump, the Biden-Harris team pledges a return to norms including the truth.
Speaker 3:The Biden-Harris team pledges a return to norms, including the truth, and that is why they're going to be defunded. That is why they're going to be defunded. One of the biggest offenders. I mean, they're right up there with MSNBC. But yes.
Speaker 3:Oh, I just listened to NPR. They're so soft and smooth, yes, as they lull you with their spells of compliance. All right, folks, thanks for joining us today. I really appreciate it. Don't forget to visit 1776liveus. Our classes are going awesome and really want you guys to join us there, so check that out. You can check the links in the show notes below. Also PeasantsPerspectivecom. And, of course, please take a visit to LeftBehindAndWithoutorg, the nonprofit that is helping children with incarcerated parents. It behooves us, as members who care about people, who care about society, to help care for those who cannot be cared for. They're not guilty of the sins of their parents. Let's help these kids get into good programs, get good mentors and hopefully end the generational cycles of incarceration. With that, we'll talk to you guys again tomorrow.
Speaker 1:Old woman, man, man, sorry, what knight lives in that castle over there. I'm 37. What? I'm 37. I'm not old. Well, I can't just call you man. You could say Dennis. I didn't know you were called Dennis. Well, you didn't bother to find out, did you? I did say sorry about the old woman, but from behind you looked.
Speaker 1:What I object to is that you automatically treat me like an inferior. Well, I am king, oh, king, eh, very nice. And how do you get that? Eh, by exploiting the workers, by hanging on to outdated imperialist dogma which perpetuates the economic and social differences in our society, if there's ever going to be any progress there is. There's some lovely filth down here. Oh, how do you do? How do you do? Good, lady, I'm Arthur, king of the Britons.
Speaker 1:Whose castle is that? King of the who, the Britons? Who are the Britons? Well, we all are. We are all Britons and I am your king. I didn't know we had a king. I thought we were an autonomous collective. You're fooling yourself. We're living in a dictatorship, a self-perpetuating autocracy in which the working classes oh, there you go, bringing class into the gang. That's what it's all about. If only people would, please, please, good people. I am in haste. Who lives in that castle? No one lives there. Then who is your lord? We don't have a lord. What I told you? We're an anarcho-syndicalist commune. We take it in turns to act as a sort of executive officer for the week. Yes, but all the decisions of that officer have to be ratified at a special bi-weekly meeting. Yes, I see, by a simple majority in the case of purely internal affairs, be quiet. But by a two-thirds majority in the case of more major, be quiet.
Speaker 1:I order you to be quiet. Order. Who does he think he is? I'm your king. Well, I didn't vote for you. You don't vote for kings? Well, I can become king. Then. The lady of the lake, her arm clad in the purest, shimmering samite, held aloft Excalibur from the bosom of the water, signifying by divine providence that I, arthur, was to carry Excalibur. That is why I'm your king.
Speaker 1:Listen, strange women lying in ponds distributing swords is no basis for a system of government. Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some farcical aquatic ceremony. Be quiet. But you can't expect to wield supreme executive power just because some watery tart threw a sword at you. Shut up. If I went round saying I was an emperor just because some moistened bint had lobbed a scimitar at me, they'd put me away. Shut up, will you Shut up Now? We see the violence inherent in the system. Shut up. Come and see the violence inherent in the system. Shut up. Come and see the violence inherent in the system. Help, help. I'm being repressed, bloody peasant. Oh, what a giveaway. Did you hear that? Did you hear that? Eh, that's what I'm on about. Did you see him repressing me? You saw it, didn't you?
