Cuba’s Blackout Shows How Power Really Works

Power doesn’t just show up on a battlefield. It shows up in the boring places: voter rolls, ID systems, fuel shipments, bank plumbing, and the rules that decide who gets benefits and who gets a ballot.

We start by digging into the SAVE Act and why voter ID, proof of citizenship, and limits on mass mail-in ballots have become a flashpoint for election integrity. If your state runs on universal vote-by-mail, the argument isn’t abstract, it’s operational. We also react to the political reality around it: who claims they “don’t have the votes,” what happens when public pressure melts down phone lines, and why so many people believe election rules are the upstream fix for almost everything else downstream.

Then we zoom out to geopolitics and leverage. Cuba announces private sector openings while the island faces fuel shortages and a nationwide grid collapse, which raises one blunt question: is this reform, or is it survival. From there we connect Ecuador’s crackdown model, narco-terror economics, and a deeper theory thread about Iran, shadow banking liquidity, and the fear that a “solution” becomes a CBDC control grid. We also break down the Real ID analogy that makes the concern easy to understand: the data book already exists, the system just wants the index card that links it to you.

We wrap with domestic incentives and accountability: claims of China accessing voter registration data ahead of 2020, fraud task force talk around Medicaid and benefits, tariffs and debt buybacks, birthright citizenship loopholes, and frustration with Supreme Court decisions that shape policy outcomes. If you’re trying to understand how elections, money, and enforcement collide, this one is for you.

Cold Open And Simultaneous Sip

SPEAKER_23 0:08

And when I went to the green, the teller! Do you know what she had?

SPEAKER_19 0:16

Let's eat cake. Hey, take the bomb.

SPEAKER_14 0:21

We're getting screwed, ma'am. Every time we come around, we're getting screwed. The revolution's gonna be casting for sure. It's a little guys, it's a little guys that take the peasants, ma'am. We're just peasants. Every one of us. You watch those old movies, you see the peasants in the background with the kings and kings walking around. We're those people. We're those people. Good morning, peasants. Welcome to another episode of The Peasants' Perspective. Guess what, Ron? I already switched my sound over. Uh oh. Gentini, good morning. Man, I'll tell you, it is fun watching people just get on the jump. Like you hit live, and we're already. Good morning. Good morning, Cart Leeds. Good morning, John Attackis. Good morning, Pony Boy. You made it. We're so glad you guys are all here. And I know why you're joining us every morning. Bright and early, 6:30 a.m. Pacific Standard Time.

SPEAKER_18 1:24

What a great crew.

SPEAKER_14 1:25

Yeah, you're here for the simultaneous sip. And all you need is a cup or a mug or a glass, a tankard, a chalice or a stein, a canteen, jug or flask, a vessel of any kind, and fill it with your favorite liquid. Today, I'm Rockin' Diet Coke. And join me now for the unparalleled pleasure of the dopamine hit of the day, the thing that makes everything better, where we all sink up the simultaneous sip. And it happens now.

SPEAKER_26 1:52

In Bogonia, obviously. What's the craziest conspiracy theory that you've ever heard?

SPEAKER_11 1:57

I just love that a lot of conspiracy theories end up being facts.

DC Briefing And The SAVE Act

SPEAKER_14 2:04

That's a little Alicia Silverstone for you this morning. All right. So we've got a big day today. A couple things are happening, which we don't have any news on quite yet. But DI, Tulsi Gabbard, Cash Patel from the FBI, and Dan Ratcliffe from the CIA are heading over to the house today to talk about domestic terrorism and the threat to the homeland. And when we say domestic terrorists, I think we're emphasizing foreign terrorists on the domestic soil.

SPEAKER_18 2:31

Oh, not me and you.

SPEAKER_14 2:32

Yeah. Now, simultaneously with that, uh, we've got the Save America Act is supposed to have floor debates today. So they've introduced it to the floor. This is a big deal because a week ago, J Thune, John Thune, our very fearful majority leader, John Thune was like, ah, I don't have the votes for the Save Act. And I think it's mostly online influencers. I'll tell you what, that pissed off the American people. Apparently, their phone lines melted down over the next 48 hours, and they were like, we should pay attention to this. And there's a couple other things in the polling, too, that came out on this. This is a big deal for Washington State. We have universal mail-in ballots, and we use the Dominion machines. They're going to get rid of the mail-in ballots. This will completely our election infrastructure. Yeah. Oh, um, this is this is brutal for California, Oregon, and Washington specifically, because they have almost an entirely mail-in-ballot system.

SPEAKER_18 3:30

Yeah, I think they've almost forgotten how to do it any other way.

SPEAKER_14 3:34

I do think that might be the case. There might be some struggles there. There's going to be some pushback, some lawsuits, but I'll tell you what, you know, it's going to call into question our elections here when all of a sudden we sweep away and like, you know, Republicans get the Senate and the House in Olympia, and the governor's like, what's happening? And he gets impeached for all of his malfeasances, like passing a tax increase. Um, again, my theory of the case is if we can fix the elections, we the people can flush out a lot of these bad politicians and these communists and stuff like that. And I'm always hesitant to use the word communist, but I think that that's been my uh virtue being weaponized against me, right? They're communists, like they're uh they're communists.

SPEAKER_18 4:13

I don't think there's no other way to put it. I think you get to say it because you live in Washington. Yeah, I live in Washington. It's not like you're it's not like we're in Utah.

SPEAKER_14 4:21

Yeah, it's like no, they're freaking communists. Like they actually like we have actual House members that sit there and say Cuba's got it figured out, their healthcare's great. Well, is anything else good? Well, no, they can't take the trash out, which is why you need healthcare. You know what I mean? Because you're sick with like super simple diseases.

SPEAKER_18 4:39

But if we applied Cuban principles polls here in Washington, it would be awesome. No, it wouldn't.

Trump’s High-Level Chess Claim

SPEAKER_14 4:45

It's not getting better. All right, so Donald Trump said something pretty revelatory, and this is nothing that we don't already believe. But when he was in the White House yesterday, he talked about the game he's playing on the world stage.

SPEAKER_03 4:59

I I think I said it this morning. I think it's a very small price to pay. And frankly, I thought it was gonna go down much more to one another too. I assumed that it was gonna go down much more. Only because people don't understand to a large it's a great it's a big chess game at a very high level. Very high level chess, the highest and dealing with very smart players. These are smart players. They don't get there, you know. You're dealing with high level intellect, high very high IQ people. These are IPS and Crockett, and these are smart people, these are very smart people, and violent people, and very, and some very nice people. And some are very nice but violent. But you know what? If I didn't do if I didn't do what I did, we would have been hit. Number one, very important, was the termination of Obama's horrible deal. And number two, this beautiful plane hitting them eight months ago, whatever it was, and taking out their nuclear company. That totally threw them for a loop. If they had that bomb at either time, five years ago or seven months ago, if they had that bomb, that bomb would have been used almost immediately.

SPEAKER_14 6:22

Yeah. Trump's playing high-level chess with high high IQ people, and some of them are nice but violent.

SPEAKER_18 6:29

And psychotic.

SPEAKER_14 6:31

And I think that's the thing, as Americans, a lot of times, I I heard Judge Judge Joe Brown one time say, and Judge Joe Brown's an interesting character. He had a TV show, but he was a legit judge, and he's pretty pretty involved. And uh he said one time, he says, 'You know, America has been spoiled. They live in a safety bubble. You don't know what it's like to have violence in your neighborhoods or to have your nation have violence brought to its shores.' That's so true. And he's like, that safety bubble is gonna go away. You know, everybody being so focused on the Oscars and so focused on your football game coming up this weekend, that disappears.

SPEAKER_18 7:04

Well, you know, there is the possibility of domestic something or other blowing up at any moment.

SPEAKER_14 7:10

It's happening, it's happening. But he was like, that disappears, and I think that's where a lot of Americans just think, oh, you know, back-to-back world war champs, you know, we've got this hand right. It's like, yeah, we've never lost a battle, but we win a lot of, we lose a lot of wars, you know what I mean?

SPEAKER_18 7:26

And we've never really done it on our land.

SPEAKER_14 7:28

No, no, we haven't. Not, you know, 150 years or so. It's been a minute, yeah. So yeah, it's pretty scary. Doug Wyatt, Doug Wyatt, good morning. My easel, good morning from Meridian, Idaho. Hello, that is awesome. Thank you so much for joining us this morning. Okay, Donald Trump last night. Did you know? Uh, speaking of sports and bread and circus, did you know Italy played Venezuela last night in the WBC baseball game semifinal?

SPEAKER_18 7:54

I have no idea what you're talking about.

SPEAKER_14 7:56

It's the World Baseball Series, right? Anyways, they won. Venezuela won. So Donald Trump actually posted this last night. It's pretty exciting. Wow, Venezuela Venezuela defeated Italy tonight, four to two at the WC baseball semifinal. They are looking really great. Good things are happening to Venezuela lately. I wonder what the magic is all about. Dayhood? Number 51. Anyone rather than Donald King Trump? Oh my gosh, that would be crazy. Crazy. Oh man. And you know, it sounds like Cuba might be the 52nd. And I'm guessing these guys will vote straight Republican ticket for a while. They're not going to be too impressed by the communist-leaning, you know, politicians, if you know what I'm saying.

SPEAKER_18 8:37

Well, the Democrats make a move all the way up here if you're Republican. You just stay there.

SPEAKER_14 8:40

How hilarious is that? That's crazy. Uh, Marco Rubio had this to say. Uh, this was uh, I don't think this was yesterday. This might have been a couple days ago, talking about Cuba.

SPEAKER_24 8:52

That helped protect Maduro. This is well known. Their whole spy agency, all that were full of Cubans. I mean, they basically it's amazing. This poor island took over Venezuela in some cases. One of the biggest problems that Venezuelans have is they have to declare independence from Cuba. They tried to basically colonize it from a security standpoint. So yeah, look, if I lived in Havana and I was in the government, I'd be concerned at least a little bit. Well, the president already announced a week ago that anything that's sanctioned, sanctioned oil, it's it's not going to be allowed to get there. So that that's that's an increase.

Cuba Opens Private Sector Amid Crisis

SPEAKER_14 9:23

So anything that's sanctioned, Cuba's Cuba has not had an oil shipment since we took Maduro. Okay. So Cuba hasn't had an oil shipment. So things are changing rapidly in Cuba. We've been talking about this, okay? And some major things happened yesterday. One specific major thing, but another two big things happened yesterday. First of all, the Cuban dictatorship announced through Oscar Perez Oliveira, Fidel Castro's grandson, the opening of the private sector in Cuba after 70 years in communism. It's a pretty historic moment.

SPEAKER_08 9:54

Let's listen. Wow. As the country's deputy prime minister, he's the man in charge of breathing life into Cuba's struggling economy. Now he sat down with me in his first ever interview to explain a series of economic reforms aimed at creating what he called a dynamic business environment. His goal attracting foreign investors, including from the United States. Tonight he plans to tell the nation that Cuban nationals living abroad in places like Madrid.

SPEAKER_14 10:27

So by the way, this has been compared to Pestroika, which is what was announced right before the Soviet Union fell. Oh, hey, yeah, yeah, that communism thing. No, we we're open for business, everybody. This is the pigs and the farmers sitting down at the table at the end of the book in Animal Farm, right? It was like as soon as they did Pestroika and they opened up for private business, Soviet Union fell.

SPEAKER_08 10:53

Here's a little more of what he told me.

SPEAKER_16 10:58

Cuba is open to having a fluid commercial relationship with U.S. companies, also with Cubans residing in the United States and their descendants. And this extends beyond the commercial sphere. It also applies to investments, not only small investments, but also large investments, particularly in infrastructure.

SPEAKER_08 11:19

Yeah, but how realistic is this? Cuba's Deputy Prime Minister will be the first to tell you that Washington's trade embargo makes attracting American capital to the island a non-starter, saying in part, quote, the United States blockade, the policy of hostility against Cuba, undoubtedly affects the development of the economic changes because the policy cut off international finance, access to technologies, access to international markets, and most recent years depriving the country of fuel. It's worth noting it's been three months since a drop of fuel has reached Cuba. Power outages can last last as long as 16 hours a day. Women giving birth in dark hospitals, highways are empty, and for many Cubans, the bus never comes. Oda?

SPEAKER_14 11:58

So that's pretty interesting. Now, in order to get investment from international investment, there has to be one thing that has to exist. Because you can make a high-risk investment, but there, but there has to be one thing to basically make even the high risk worth taking. Do you know what it is?

SPEAKER_19 12:16

Uh-uh.

SPEAKER_14 12:17

International law. Contracts have to be enforced.

SPEAKER_19 12:20

Okay.

SPEAKER_14 12:20

This was the beauty of the British banking system, the whole world was subject to the uniform commercial code. You write a contract, it can be enforced. Your nation is supposed to enforce those contracts in the local courts, otherwise, the bombs come. So that's kind of what's going on here. So for them opening up and saying, Yeah, we want to do business, the only way they can do business is if they play by the international order.

SPEAKER_18 12:42

Do they know how to play business? I mean, do they know how to do it?

Cuba Grid Collapse And U.S. Leverage

SPEAKER_14 12:47

But no, they clearly don't know how to do it, right? But the but the reality is they're signaling that they're open. And, you know, it's basically because on the day he made that announcement, something else pretty significant happened yesterday.

SPEAKER_13 13:00

And breaking news into CNN, Cuba's electrical grid has suffered a complete and total collapse. This is according to the country's power operator. It's the first nationwide blackout since the U.S. effectively shut off the flow of oil to Cuba.

SPEAKER_14 13:18

And they're in the dark. Here is a picture in downtown Havana. Is this Havana? Downtown Havana. Okay, this is downtown Havana last night. Someone on their little balcony took a video and got it uploaded, and this is what was happening in Havana. Bringing a pause just to let other motive still alive. Man, if I was one of those lights, I'd be pretty terrified. That's like, you know, people are gonna swarm to those lights. Like a moth. Yeah, you ever hear about that? Like if we go on a blackout and then all of a sudden the generates kick on, you're like, well, I know where I'm going. Right. Wow. Wow. Trump yesterday in the Oval Office also commented on Cuba. This is this is pretty significant. I mean, Cuba, I I don't know if you could say it's fallen yet, but I don't know how long you're gonna be able to have that island in a complete and total blackout. At some point, they're gonna need some oil, and once they get the oil, it's probably gonna be coming from an American ship. Guess what? It's over.

SPEAKER_03 14:32

I think Cuba, I don't know, in a no way, it's uh you know, tourism and everything else is a beautiful island, great weather. It won't be as good as the money for hurricanes every week. But uh I think you've you know, all my life I've been hearing about the United States and the United States. I do believe I'll be the honor of having the honor of you. Take you whether I free it, take it. What do you think I want with it? They're very uh weakened nation. They were for a long time. Very violent, um uh very violent leaders.

SPEAKER_14 15:21

I didn't go up. I had I had this video teed up with Donald Trump with the gangster mask. You can take Cuba, take it, free it, do whatever I want. No one's gonna stop me. Cuba! Oh my goodness, Venezuela, the 51st state? Are we really having this conversation?

SPEAKER_17 15:38

I was waiting for him to launch his new uh resort.

SPEAKER_14 15:42

Yeah, seriously, Trump Tower in Havana, guys. Oh man, like at a you do have to sit back and just go, what this man is doing is 3D chess, right? By taking out Maduro, who knew that three months later Havana would be in a complete blackout, opening up to private business and investment, and hey, hey, we're we, you know, what are we doing here? All of a sudden I ran. I mean, what's going on over there, right? It's like, and China's like, um, um, uh, are those weapons we sold everybody? Totally useless. I love the story about the MiG, right? After the Kosovo War, they shot down a it was like 87 to what zero, and it was like it couldn't give a mig away after that. There's no Chinese weapons that anybody wants. What are you offering that's gonna beat the discombobulator? And lasers, sharks with lasers on their heads. It's incredible. Wow, I I just think that's I I think it's very cool. Uh again, back when I was in college studying international politics, I could have never thought that communism would be on the run like this. And it's because communism goes right along with thuggery. What do we got here, Ron?

SPEAKER_18 16:54

Oh, I was just trying to get Facebook to work.

SPEAKER_14 16:58

I don't even know if people watch on Facebook.

SPEAKER_18 16:59

I don't but let me see if I do got something. No.

Ecuador Goes Full Bukele

SPEAKER_14 17:06

Oh, just just hit refresh until the numbers show up. That's all that's what I do. And they never show up. Okay, meanwhile, while you're doing that, um, let me show you this. In Ecuador, they've got a whole uh the president of Ecuador has gone full on Bukele. Okay, they have they've joined. Oh, go ahead, do it, do it, do it now. When? What what you got? I still can't do it, decent, man. What a pain in the butt. Get your act together. We're trying to make you some money. Read some ads, and we want to make 32 cents. Real bad, brutal. I know it's literally we should screenshot that, like dancing for pennies, seriously. Throwing quarters at us. It's a it's so sad. Okay, so Ecuador's going full on Bukele. And if you remember what Bukele did in El Salvador, was when they when he came into power, they had to declare the great exception, the exception. And what that was is they basically suspended the constitution while they went, he went and rounded up a bunch of El Salvadorian gang members, primarily thir MS-13, and put them into C CO. End of story, right? And now the turnaround in El Salvador has been stark and dramatic. I mean, they went from one of the highest crime, highest murder uh rate areas in the country, who knows how many rapes because nobody reported them, right? To it's one of the safest places to go. And I mean, Doug Wyatt, our friend here, has said, man, if Trump doesn't, you know, 2028 and 20 doesn't go so well, like we're going to El Salvador, bro. Like Buenos Días, if you know what I'm saying. So, anyways, John Attack has said, good morning on YouTube, friends. Great, looks like we're working over there as well. So, down in Ecuador, the president there has gone full Bukele. He's deployed his military troops to go round up narco-terrorists. And we're talking missile launchers, they're going hard. So, here what you're seeing is the troops all lined up, getting ready to deploy in the middle of the night.

SPEAKER_18 19:02

This is like the A-T.

SPEAKER_14 19:03

It's the A team. Half of them probably are related to the people that are going to go attack.

SPEAKER_18 19:10

Yeah, we could turn that off.

Iran Shadow Banking And CBDC Fears

SPEAKER_14 19:12

Yeah, I thought there were words. Maybe I didn't get the newscast. I got the B-roll footage. Anyways, they are going hardcore against the narcoterrorists. And I'm reminded back, you know, Catherine Austin Fitz, she lined up 10 people in her little group that she's got, and she laid out how the entire economy, your 401ks, everything is propped up by human trafficking, narco-terrorism, communist countries, illegal oil trade, all of this stuff. And she said, you know, if we could push a button and make it all go away, presumably, what button is that? Going on the control grid, so to speak. Okay. If you could push a button and make it all go away, would you? And you know what the answer was? Nine out of 10 of them said no. These are like Christians, God-fearing people, don't support the drug trade in any way. But their response was, but my kids need how am I going to pay for their college? But but money. But money, but money, but my savings accounts. Okay. Right. And and we played a clip yesterday from Catherine Austin Fitz saying going after Iran was basically taking out the uh implementing the control grid. And it's kind of hard for people to understand that. There was a post on 4chan yesterday that made the rounds, and I actually thought this was really good information. And basically, at this point, we can pretty much determine that all truth originates on 4chan. It's like what Silverstone said the conspiracies become reality. So this is from 4chan. And I guess this particular account is known for posting pretty deep intelligence analysis and stuff like that. And he says this Iran is not an insolvent pariah state. Iran, and this is what I've said before. I believe Iran was the balance sheet for the British bankers. It was the off-books balance sheet.

SPEAKER_18 20:49

Well, the off-books balance sheet for a lot of weirdos.

SPEAKER_14 20:53

Yes. Iran is the primary source of unhedged liquidity for the shadow banking system. London is the hub. Tehran is the offshore battery. IRGC energy credits are not sold. They're swapped for Vostro credits in mid-tier Omani banks. These credits get bundled into collateralized synthetic obligations. They hit the London repo desk as high-quality collateral to back short-term loans. With this 24-7 inflow of dark energy backed paper, the City of London's leverage ratios collapse without it. The 2026 Iran war is based on two factions.

SPEAKER_18 21:28

And this is something that I think we have seen as peasants looking up at our sounds exactly like the credit default swaps that got traded around by the big banks here in America and almost drove us into the ground.

SPEAKER_14 21:39

Yeah, and then they had to move all those swaps over to Iran, which is off books because this was a little bit on books.

SPEAKER_18 21:45

Well, and it also required a payout by the government to make sure that some of the banks were solvent.

SPEAKER_14 21:50

Exactly. So the 2026 Iran war is based on two factions of the global elite fighting one another. And this is what Captain Austin Fist also mentioned that the bankers decided. To put Trump in. The problem is which bankers? Their fight has gone from boardrooms to kinetic events, which can also be seen via seemingly unconnected accidents in the form of private transport crashes and security lapses for world leaders. Fraction A, old money central bankers. They aim to keep the Iran loop open at all costs. This is why London has not stepped in to help. They haven't sent battleships. They've stayed, you know, a step away. This is why half of our quote unquote NATO allies won't send help. Oh, we spend billions of dollars protecting you guys. And the moment we want you to, you know, help help escort a tanker through the Strait of Hermuz to your benefit. You're like, well, we can't do legal international action.

SPEAKER_18 22:43

Right? Wait a minute, wait a minute. We don't even have any insurance. Yeah.

SPEAKER_14 22:48

Old money central bankers, they aim to keep the Iran loop open at all costs. They know the Western debt to GDP ratio is terminal. They use the shadow trade to suppress domestic inflation and keep the repo market from seizing. To them, a nuclear deal is just a legal patch to keep the detergent flowing, the detergent from money laundering. Faction B, Silicon Valley Neo Futilists. They aim for kinetic escalation and regime change. They want to force a global default and great reset to move everyone onto a fully CBDC tracked ledger. They attack the Iran loop because it is untracked and gives old money a way to survive without their tech. There is no blockade. It's a monopoly. The sanctions are not walls, they're tolls. They create a compliance tax that ensures only the five biggest banks can handle the volume. Seizing the central bank of Iran is about deleting the last off-grid gold reserves. If the Iran loop breaks, London will take a 30% liquidity haircut within 48 hours, which one may see via a shift in the gold to oil ratio. Escalation will probably involve cutting subsea cables. The system is cannibalizing its own infrastructure to stay alive. So that is actually a really good analysis. So the question is, is Donald Trump in on the CBDC control grid, or is he going to make good on what he said and say, I'm never going to implement it? This is actually pretty common. One of the factions co-ops Trump. Trump's like, okay, well, I'm going to win because we got to beat the British bankers. There's a lot of bad things that go with that. But at the last second, I'm going to prevent you from getting the absolute control over to CBDCs and just swap out central banks. That's when the bullets come. That's when the JFK moment happens, right? That is literally Lincoln sitting in the Ford theater days after the Civil War was over, when he could have brought peace to the land. There wouldn't have been reconstruction in the South and all the oppression that came with that. The rise of the KKK probably wouldn't have happened. He had a completely different moral basis and agenda. Boom, he's gone. Next thing you know, we get we get a new president that was all about putting his foot on the throat of the Southerners and not bringing them back in, but really oppressing them big time, right? And that's where you get a lot of a lot of the stuff that we're stealing dealing with today, the civil rights stuff, is because we didn't finish the civil war correctly and we went into reconstruction. And anybody who studies history can understand that. You know, the South was very oppressed for a long, long time.

SPEAKER_18 25:28

Well, some people still say South will rise again. Yeah.

SPEAKER_14 25:34

All right, so this is Promethean action, and they analyze this pretty good. This war with Iran is a banker war more than anything else, but it's not a banker war where we're propping up the system, we're degrading the system.

SPEAKER_22 25:47

Something unprecedented just happened in Moscow. Yesterday, Trump's envoy Steve Wikov met with Vladimir Putin, while Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi met with his Russian counterpart. Three nuclear superpowers converged in overlapping meetings, and London is in absolute panic mode because these three nations together have the power to end British imperial control once and for all. And Donald Trump knows it. Not only is he building new alliances with the other superpowers, he's targeting the very lifeblood of the British Empire. Drug money flows.

SPEAKER_14 26:19

But that's not what you'll hear from the mainstream media or from all too many influenced drug money flows, kind of like why they're down in Ecuador taking out narco-terrorists, kind of like what we did in Venezuela, kind of you know what I'm saying? Like kind of like what we're probably about to do in Mexico. Heads up, it's coming.

SPEAKER_22 26:42

That says Russia or China or both will forever be our adversaries, and that we must tie ourselves forever to NATO and Europe and Ukraine and the US-UK special relationship. While that's what they're still peddling to try to disorient the MAGA movement, the Anglo-American elites themselves know better. They know that the world is shifting away from them. And the establishment's Wall Street Journal has ri recently been sounding the alarm, as these two headlines show. The first one says Trump's push to end the Ukraine war is sowing fresh fear about NATO's future. And the second one, Europe fears it can't catch up in great power competition. Now, RT gleefully covered that second Wall Street Journal article, highlighting the point with this quote US, Russia, and China enhance their economic, technological, and military dominance while Europe stays behind. I'm Susan Cokinda, and since the 1970s, I've looked at how the British game masters have played the modern version of their imperial great game, keeping the superpowers pitted against each other in perpetual conflict. All the while the global elites continue their control over the world and over nations' economies. And I've documented how the second Trump presidency is challenging that in unprecedented ways. So if this is your kind of fight, you can subscribe to Promethean Action.

Real ID As The Index Card

SPEAKER_14 28:04

They're actually really good. They put out videos almost every day, and I end up watching most of them. They're they're excellent. Thomas Massey said this, speaking of the control grid, and I actually think this is one of the best explanations I've ever, ever, ever, ever seen to explain this in just the simplest of terms. You and I, just before the show, we're talking about this. We were talking about the fact that we're like, well, we already use credit cards and we already use all these digital things, and you know, like we're already getting, you know, you've got Facebook. It used to be called the Thousand Points of Light. You know, that's a that was a DARPA program. DARPA closed down their program and then Facebook incorporated the next day, and the technology got transferred because why? You're the product, you're the one that they needed all the information for to track. So he says this he says, Did you ever study the Dewey decimal system and use the card catalog index to find a book in the library?

SPEAKER_18 28:53

Absolutely.

SPEAKER_14 28:55

If we have any viewers under 30, probably not.

SPEAKER_18 28:58

Oh, really?

SPEAKER_14 28:58

They don't do that anymore. I think they do, but you just go like Google it and tells you, you know, like it's not the same.

SPEAKER_18 29:04

And then it just says, warmer. You're getting warmer.

SPEAKER_14 29:07

Yeah, as a kid, you'd have to go through like these little catalog cards that you see here. And it was like you had to know what book you were looking for, first of all. That was the thing. So things have changed a little bit. But either way, the Dewey Decimal system. When you get a real ID, they don't ask much information about you, right? He says, your I real ID is your index card. They already have your book. Uh-huh. They already have your banking, they already have your credit stuff, they already have your daily activity online. They know when you use the bathroom, they know it all. They just need the real ID to unequivocally link you to it. They need to know that that isn't a bot or that isn't, you know, a stolen ID or something like that. They need to absolutely link your real ID to your online behavior.

SPEAKER_18 29:52

They need to link your sentience to the digital network.

SPEAKER_14 29:55

I'll never forget when I was in court and I went and met with the psychiatrist because they had said I wasn't competent to stand trial. Yes. Yes. Our court system. The judge declared in open court that I was not competent to stand trial. Yeah. That's that's a nice way of saying I don't want to deal with you in my courtroom. So he sent me to meet with a psychiatrist one time and I wouldn't answer questions. Psychiatrist, what's your birthday? Supreme Court has advised me anytime I'm in the presence of figures not to answer questions or provide information in any way. Well, you can't provide your birthday. Are you an officer of the court? Yeah, and you should have access to it. I'm not answering questions, right? Did that for two hours. So then I had to get go to DC, have a live hearing, and they were the prosecution was like, he won't provide information, he won't answer questions. And I'm I get up on the with a podium and I'm like, judge, with all of the vast powers of the government, are you telling me they don't know when my birthday is? And he's like, Well, that's the executive branch, and it's not the same. You need to answer questions. I still wouldn't answer their questions because they have the book, they know when my birthday is. You know what I mean? Just ask Facebook. You have the whole account. Anyways, unbelievable. I've told the story about how there was a uh Twitter, an ex, I guess it was Twitter at the time, that they pulled up Twitter posts that they said I made that were incendiary. And I was like, I didn't recognize them. And they were from the vanity name at peasant pod underscore. I've never used an underscore any vanity name ever. Email address, nothing. Okay, I think they're dumb. And uh, anyways, I'll and then it was funny because they had subpoenas for all of the information, like Twitter and Facebook and everything. And it was like the the FBI agent, he's showing posts. Where'd you get this information? A subpoena return from Facebook. Where'd you get this information? From his phone, and we hacked into his phone with the the whatever bright system. What where did you get this information? Oh, we got it from a uh uh a subpoena return from Facebook. Where'd you get this information? I looked it up on the Google Wayback Machine. What? What? And then he shows this vanity name that's not mine. I'm like, what? Turns out this wasn't too uncommon. Jenna Ryan down in Florida, she was thrown in prison, she's still going to court for this. And they presented emails for an e and a bunch of stuff that she wrote in emails that were like violent in nature and stuff like that, and they justified that to send her to prison, right? But it's not her probation.

SPEAKER_18 32:21

Don't know.

SPEAKER_14 32:22

There's no metadata. Google has no history of that account ever existing. So now she's gone through and done the legwork of being like, what is that account? It didn't wasn't in the discovery. Google never had doesn't have access of it now. They made it up. They made it up, and I'm like, I'm pretty sure they made that up.

SPEAKER_19 32:39

Uh-huh.

SPEAKER_14 32:42

So we talked yesterday about the Islam, Islamic uh religion and how they're really intending to just take everything over, right? We have a duty to take power from those in authority by any means necessary, and then we'll just vote in Sharia law, either by sword or by ballot. We're gonna get it.

SPEAKER_18 32:59

Yeah, do you think they're gonna stop until the whole world is taken over?

SPEAKER_14 33:02

Ferazer says, uh, we have placed the system online now, Idaho State Library. Yeah, and I'm sure you still use the Dewey Decimal system, but it's like you just go to the computer terminal and you type in the book and it tells you shelf B, you know, kind of thing. So this is Marco Rubio talking about the Islamic world and how they have intentions to expand.

SPEAKER_24 33:24

Ultimately, all radical Islamic movements in the world identify the the West writ large, but the United States in particular, as the greatest evil on the earth. And every chance they have the notion that somehow radical Islam would be comfortable with simply controlling some province in Iraq or Syria is just not borne out by history. Radical Islam has shown that their desire is not simply to occupy one part of the world and be happy with their own little caliphate. They want to expand. It is a it is a revolutionary in its nature. It seeks to expand and control more territories and more people. And radical Islam has designs openly on the West, on the United States, on Europe, we've seen that progress there as well. And they are prepared to conduct acts of terrorism. In the case of Iran, nation-state actions, assassinations, murders, you name it, whatever it takes for them to gain their influence and ultimately their domination of different cultures and societies. That's a clear and imminent threat to the world and to the broader West, but especially to the United States, who they identify as the chief source of evil on the planet. The reason why they hate the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, the leadership of the UAE of Bahrain is because they've allowed the United States to partner with them. That's why they hate them. They consider them infidels for it. They hate Israel. But they also hate America. And they hate anywhere in the world that we have influence, they seek to attack it, including here in the homeland. If you look at the domestic terrorists, at the attacks that have happened here domestically, the overwhelming majority of them have been inspired by radical Islamic uh viewpoints. And that includes the shooting in the Polts Nightclub in Orlando, Florida. That includes the Saudi pilot in Pensacola, my home state, two attacks.

SPEAKER_14 34:59

And I think part of the problem with that is a lot of these terrorists that come over, they're just not well fed. If they had access to Chicago State Company, they would probably not be committing those acts of terror.

SPEAKER_18 35:11

I think you're right. Today's sponsor is Chicago State Company, and they're giving away four free steaks on every order. Code BPSIR Free. Man, do you ever buy steaks at the grocery store? I hope so. And it's just a total gamble. Oh, I hope not. You're standing there staring at shrink wrap mystery cuts, trying to figure out which one is might actually be decent, and half the time you get home, cook it, and it's just fine, nothing special. Chicago Steak Company is the opposite of that. USDA Prime and Upper Choice, hand selected by butchers in Chicago, wet aged 28 to 40 days, vacuum sealed and shipped on dry ice right to your door. Every cut is hand-carved, no guessing. Here's the part I really like. Spend$199 or more, any steaks your choice. Use code BPSI R F R E E. And they throw in four bourbon peppercorn sirloins for free. Plus free shipping. These are six ounce top sirloins with a cracked peppercorn and bourbon rub. Lean, beefy, bold flavor. Throw them on the hot grill and they're done in minutes. That's$160 in free steaks. 15,000 five-star reviews. These guys are the real deal. Mychicagosteak.com slash rumble code BPSIR free. That's B P S I R free. Link in the description.

Americans Shrug At Iran War

SPEAKER_14 36:34

Heck yeah. You know, whenever whenever you get steaks that have the rub on it already, I always think that's not a good cut. It makes me think of that Seinfeld episode where uh George's dad is in Korea and he gets the rotten meat, he starts putting all the seat on it and everybody goes running to the bathroom. That's what I think. Anytime it's like pre-seasoned, I'm like, that's a cover. I'm sure that the Chicago steak picks the best cuts for that. I'm just sure of it. I don't know if they, when they approve the ads, I don't know if they listen to the follow-up. Okay, so when it comes to the Middle East and Iran, if you watch the mainstream news, CNN, MS Now, DNC, whatever it's called, or you read the Wall Street Journal, or especially the New York Times, you'd think that Americans are just absolutely outraged, MAGA's outraged. I can't believe this is happening. Well, CNN did some polling, and it turns out Americans aren't really in disfavor on what's happening in Iran.

SPEAKER_01 37:28

But so far, there's kind of been a little bit of a collective shrug from the American public. What am I talking about here? Well, let's just take a look here. Americans who say they care about a lot about the Iranian situation. Look at this. It's just 45%. Just 45% of Americans say they care a lot about the situation going on in Iran. Compare that to the U.S. economy, which of course is the number one issue right now in this country, we're talking 84%. That is a very, very high number. And this 45% number, only about half that. And below, below 50%. So despite all the hubbub, right now we're talking about less than a majority of Americans who say they care a lot about what's going on in Iran right now.

SPEAKER_12 38:11

But the war in Iran does affect the U.S. economy.

SPEAKER_01 38:14

That's going to be the question going forward.

SPEAKER_12 38:16

So going forward, we'll have to see what happens with the war and how it affects gas prices, et cetera, et cetera. So is interest starting to rise or is it kind of just falling off?

SPEAKER_01 38:25

Yeah, this to me, again, just such an interesting number because we have this 45% right here. But take a look at Google searches right now because it just sort of reinforces that point. Americans, Google searches for Iran, look at this. Down, down 84% versus February 28th, when of course the current war started in Iran. And if you look back on Sunday, you look back yesterday, searches for the Academy Awards significantly higher, talking about three, four times as high as searches for Iran in the United States of America. So at this point, outside of the situation in Iran, perhaps affecting the US economy, which of course is the number one issue, is what Americans are focusing on. I'm just not thinking that this is necessarily going to be the big political mover and shaker that you might expect, given that this has kind of been a pretty gosh darn big deal, at least globally speaking.

SPEAKER_12 39:19

It certainly has. So then taking a look at what's happened with the president and whether his popularity has changed at all, just judging on this, what are you learning?

SPEAKER_01 39:27

Yeah, what what what are we learning? Which is perhaps it's not so much of a surprise when just 45% of Americans say they care a lot about the Iranian situation, that the president's overall approval rating is the same. It's the same. It was 41% before the current war in Iran started, and it is 41% now. So despite, again, all the hubbub, despite all the critics of the president of the United States, what we are seeing right now is a president whose approval rating is steady, and this has not has not been a big deal politically.

SPEAKER_14 40:01

Even the people that are the biggest critics of Donald Trump, if we were in a campaign season and you could choose between Kamala Harris and Trump, they'd still pick Trump. You know what I mean? And so there's a lot of circular firing happening inside of the Republican Party or the coalition that Trump built. And again, you know, some people, anti-war was the reason they were attracted to Trump. And what do they see? Military interventions everywhere. Well, we had a military intervention in Iran, and a couple months later, Trump's like, 51st state anybody? Right? Cuba, 52nd state anybody? Canada, 53rd state anybody? Things are changing rapidly. Pony Boy says, I say we feed them pork instead of steak. Yeah, that's right. That'll get them out of here. Uh Carlitz, I think that people are ready for affordable housing and lower interest rates. Yeah, that would be nice. Or just higher wages. Let's start there and lower interest rates. Let's do both. Okay, Scott Bessant talks about this. How it's unfortunate that the American people can't see past, specifically the elite, can't see past this issue with Iran and what's on the other side of that. Again, when it comes to the control grid, one of the trade-offs here is we go on the control grid. You're already there. They already know everything you're doing. You know, when you get a letter from the IRS, you're like, how did they know about that extra$3,000 in my bank account? Okay, they already know. The difference is on the control grid, government will be held accountable. The ledger is transparent for everyone to see. The current system doesn't have that. I can't see behind these repo swaps and these semi whatever this accounts and these off, you know, these off these off-booked balance sheets. I mean, we already heard from Catherine Austin Fitz 21 trillion is missing, like not accounted for. Uh, where is it? Probably a lot of it is sitting in gold vaults in Iran. Probably a lot of it was sitting in gold vaults in Venezuela. Because why? Because they tricked us out of our drug money, they tricked us out of our military money. You know what I mean? This is the old uh uh Ron White joke. And that's the thing. We what happened just a few weeks, just a week and a half ago, two weeks ago, how much gold came back from Iran? Gold, gold bars delivered from Venezuela. Excuse me, I said to Iran, Venezuela too. It's like, what's going on? It wasn't Iran, it was Venezuela. Gold bars delivered to America. So there's something about this, okay? So Scott Besson is like, listen, yeah, we're gonna go through some turbulence on the economy, but what's on the other side of this is the gold.

SPEAKER_07 42:26

Yep, Frank, can we just be clear here? It's it's two weeks. It's two weeks. And you know, I know the media likes to move things along. We see these headlines, and that's part of the Iranian strategy. And it's very unfortunate that because of a dislike for President Trump, not you, but a lot of mainstream media are trying to speed this up, trying to make it into some crisis that it's not. And on the other side of this, if you look at longer dated crude, you look at future inflation expectations, they're both very well anchored. And you know, this this will end. And I don't know how how many weeks it will be, but on the other side of this, the world will be safer and we will be better supplied. So we just be clear here.

SAVE Act Filibuster And Election Rules

SPEAKER_14 43:09

Uh Pray of the Rosary Daily says Joe Kent just resigned as director of national counter and terrorism over the war in Iran. Isn't he from Washington State? He is, he's down from the Vancouver area. Hmm, interesting. I've got to tell you, I've never been super impressed with Joe Kent. He was kind of one of those, he's just a typical politician. Yeah, typical politician. Run he kind of ran away from some of his base of support. And uh he pulled a tight one here in Washington State. I was happy to see him go to director of national intelligence, but a lot of times those lower level guys, they don't, especially when they're political appointees, they don't stick around anyways. So I don't know. I I'd have to I'd have to know the details on that. So one of the things we mentioned before was the Save America Act is coming to the floor today. This is the biggest thing for us domestically. Like I said, if we can fix these elections, we can flush out a lot of this. Bad stuff that's going on. Mike Lee talked about this, and once they start this process, again, this is unprecedented. This hasn't a a a talking filibuster going to the floor with a bill that isn't pre-packaged and ready to be voted on. This is the first time it's happened, really stretching back all the way to the civil rights bill back in the 1960s.

SPEAKER_21 44:19

So, yeah, we're turning to the Save America Act tomorrow. I want to be very clear about something. Once we turn to this, we cannot, we must not stop debating it until it's passed. This is one of these moments where we're crossing the Rubicon. We've got to stay at this thing until it is done. Make filibustering senators speak. Do not allow them an easy out. And look, in my view, we need to stay here in session, no breaks for the weekend, no recesses until this thing is done. We need to go full 1964 on that. And those of you who've been following this debate know what I mean by that. If you don't, uh reply in the comments and I'll explain it. Let's get this done. Spread the word.

SPEAKER_14 45:02

So let's also go a little history on this. In 1964, who it was, I think 74 days is how long the filibuster went. That's a long time. Do you know who was opposing the Civil Rights Act? This is gonna blow your mind.

SPEAKER_18 45:15

Well, I d I don't know, but isn't this the year after President uh John F. Kennedy was shot?

SPEAKER_14 45:22

Uh it was under Lyndon Johnson. Was it 63? Was Kennedy shot?

SPEAKER_18 45:26

63 was Kennedy shot. Yeah, so the year after. Who opposed it? I wonder this is just like months later.

SPEAKER_14 45:31

Who opposed the Civil Rights Act? Democrats. Democrats did. Okay. And then immediately when it was passed, what did they do? Oh, the party's flipped. Democrats aren't Republicans now. Republicans are the KKK. Right. They flipped it, they even flipped it around on us. There was no flipping, right? They've always been plantation owners. Let's just be straight about it. Anyways, I find that fascinating. So Donald Trump put a post out yesterday. He says the Save America Act is one of the most important and consequential pieces of legislation in the history of Congress and America itself. No more rigged elections. Voter ID, proof of citizenship, no rigged mail-in voting. We are the only country in the world that allows this. No men and women's sports, no transgender mutilation of our children, 90 to 99% issues all of it. Only sick, demented, or deranged people in the House or Senate could vote against the Save America Act. If they do, each one of these points separately will be used against the user in his or her political campaign for office. A guaranteed loss. Get your senators, Republican or Democrat, to vote yes on the Save America Act. I will never ever endorse anyone who votes against Save America. Thank you for your attention to this matter, President Donald J. Trump. So how much does that endorsement matter? Trump's not running. He's not going to be on the ballot again if if the Democrats have their way with it. But he's not going to run again. So he's not going to be on the ballot. So how important is his endorsement? It's pretty dang important. Just ask John Cornyn down in Texas.

SPEAKER_01 47:15

Even said that he's not convinced necessarily that this gentleman on the right, John Cornyn, is more electable than this gentleman on the left than Ken Paxton. And if you look at the polling data, it pretty much agrees at this situation. Look at this choice for Texas Senate. Taller Rico, the Democrat versus the GOP. Look at this. Tallerico versus Cornyn, it's a one-point race. Tallerico versus Paxton, it's a two-point race. In fact, in this particular poll, Paxton's actually polling one point better than Corning. But the massive takeaway from this is that neither Republican seems to be more electable against James Talerico than the other one. No wonder President Trump isn't necessarily sold on the idea that either one is more electable because either candidate at this point, whoever the GOP nominates, it looks like it's going to be a real race come to fall between James Calarico, the Democrat, and of course, whichever Republican gets that nomination.

SPEAKER_09 48:06

In the conventional wisdom, and I put that in quotation marks, was that Cornyn is more electable. What have Corning's approval ratings been?

SPEAKER_01 48:13

Yeah, I think that those who argue that uh John Cornyn is more electable may be living in the past. Because just take a look at Corny's approval rating now versus when, of course, he was re-elected six years ago. Look at this. Cornyn's an approval rating in Texas. In October of 2020, according to the Texas Politics Project, he was about it even, zero points. There were some polls that even had him higher than that. Look at where he is now. Way down there at minus 13 points. John Cornyn's boat has taken on a whole heck of a lot of water. And that is a big reason why he is not running away against uh James Talarico, because what you're essentially seeing here is that, in fact, you see that he is way underwater. How about with specific groups, subgroups? Yeah, what about specific subgroups? I mean, just take a look here. Cornyn's then appropriating in Texas now versus October of 2020. Among Republicans, he's got a massive problem. Look at that dropping by 29 points. But it's not just about the fact that the base has been running away from him, it's also among independents. Look at that, down by double digits as well. So what you see is John Corning has big problems, not just on the right, but the center electorate as well. And that is a big reason why, if he gets the nomination, it's gonna be a fairly close race.

SPEAKER_09 49:20

And this is a really interesting look at the prediction markets, how the prediction markets have looked at John Cornyn and really over the last month.

SPEAKER_01 49:28

Yeah, okay. So take a look over here. Like a look, Corner's chance to be the Texas GOP nominee for Senate. On my March 3rd, he was just a 23%. Then the primary happens, right? And then there's this whole idea, these reports that, hey, maybe President Trump's gonna endorse Corden. Look at that. Through the roof, 85%. But now, as Trump is sat on the sidelines, look at that, back down to 60%, basically a jump ball. That's how much Donald Trump's endorsement would matter in this runoff. He goes to Corinth, Corden's most likely gonna win. He goes to Paxson, Paxson's most likely gonna win. President Trump, the ball is in your court. Be interesting to watch this go on.

SPEAKER_14 50:05

Okay, so if you're a Rhino Republican that doesn't like Donald Trump and you don't think his endorsement matters in your state, the Murkowski's and the call into the world, maybe it doesn't. Maybe it doesn't.

SPEAKER_18 50:16

Maybe not. But in this case, it's pretty clear.

SPEAKER_14 50:18

Maybe it doesn't as long as the Save America Act doesn't pass. But if it does pass, you better have voted the right way. Because I I do believe in this next upcoming election, Trump's gonna turn a blind eye to a lot of these rhino Republicans and let them get their seat. You know what I mean? But if they vote against it, I mean he's gonna campaign directly against you. Uh Mike Lee posted, you know, if we don't pass the Save America Act, you need to vote out the Democrats and Republicans who vote against it. And I'm like, how? If you don't pass the Save America Act, how? You know what I mean? That's the problem.

SPEAKER_18 50:51

Yeah. You can vote all you want. Vote all you want. Yeah, it's like you can vote on anything you want.

SPEAKER_14 50:57

Yeah. How? It's like this is the problem. Mike Schmidt, Eric Schmidt, excuse me, Eric Schmidt from Missouri emphasized this. We have to pass it. This is do or die for us.

SPEAKER_00 51:09

It's not complicated. Okay. You need proof of citizenship. You need voter ID. Why would anybody be against that part?

SPEAKER_02 51:16

Well, I think the Democrats want to cheat, and everybody knows this, right? Uh, when President Trump gave his really memorable and stirring second inaugural address, he talked about a return of common sense. And that's really what this is about. These are 80, 90, 10, you know, 80, 20, 90, 10 issues. You have to prove you're an American citizen to vote. Check. You have to show a photo ID to vote. Check. You have to get cut down on this mass mail-in balloting scam we saw in 2020 where the Democrats tried to cheat. Check. You have to, by the way, we only think men, men should not be able to compete in women's sports, and we should stop and ban the transgender mutilation of our kids. These are all very common sense issues, Sean. The American people supported. The Democrats are on the wrong side of this. Whether it's Trump derangement syndrome or the left has totally captured the Democrat Party, they're wrong on this. I think it's a very important week for us in the Senate. I'll be having that amendment as we go to the floor this week, finally, on the Save America Act. This is a big priority for President Trump. But bigger than that, this is important for the American people to secure our elections and protect our kids.

SPEAKER_14 52:18

Yeah. Yeah, I'm a little bit afraid. What's this all about? Oscar's investigation into Leonardo DiCaprio. Okay, well, look.

SPEAKER_18 52:32

It's uh three minutes. Oh my gosh.

Voter Roll Gaps In Washington

SPEAKER_14 52:37

All right. Well, yeah. Uh Mia Green ID. Thank you for the heads up on the Oscar, whatever that was all about. Thank you so much. Carlita says in Texas, we do not want Cornyn. I don't think anybody wants Corning. It's it's actually fascinating to me to think about this. If you have a choice between Paxon and Cornyn, both of them have state machines. I mean, Paxon's won multiple state elections. Cornyn's clearly won multiple state elections. Both of them have worked through the Republican Party GOP. And but apparently Cornyn has the machine captured, whereas Paxon was just able to use it when he was running and he was the nominee. But now that he's up against Cornyn, Paxon apparently hasn't had access to the Republican machine. It'd be really curious to go sit inside of the local Republican meetings in Texas and see what the feel in the precincts are, right? Because again, I have a hard time thinking when you go door to door and you're like, Do you want Ken Paxon or John Cornyn? People are like, give me some of the amnesty and the red flag laws. This is Texas after all. You know what I mean? Like it seems kind of crazy to me. It may maybe Cornyn polls that that Catholic conservative that doesn't want their abuela to be deported. You know what I mean? Maybe that's where his base of support is. I don't know. Pretty interesting. Carlitz, maybe you can give us some insight on that. That's that's my only impression. Uh Ari Hoffman out here in Seattle, he was on with John Bachman on say on uh and talking about in Washington how the voter registration, I mean, it people know that there's a problem. Every time that I have voted a Republican ticket on my ballot, my ballot has been sent back to me for signature verification. Every time, without exception. Okay. Now, when I split my ticket, which in the past I thought that was a good idea to split my ticket, my ballot would not get returned. But if I voted straight Republican, 100% of the time, for me personally, my ballot got returned. Ari Hoffman has some beef with our election system too.

SPEAKER_15 54:32

But I think about our very own Washington state here. My son was able to register to vote online without producing any form of ID whatsoever. My wife's name has been wrong on her ballot for years. We have tried to change it again and again and again, and yet they won't let us do it. We have seen multiple instances of voter fraud, which our Secretary of State and law enforcement agencies have refused to do anything about whatsoever. Our very own Secretary of State refuses to turn over any records to the Department of Justice, which has me asking, what does he have to hide? If you want to make people like Ari Hoffman look like they don't know what they're talking about, turn it over. And then if you're exonerated, you say see. Ari Hoffman didn't know what he was talking about, but they're never going to do it because they know that if they turn over those records, we're going to find all the problems we've been tracking for years, including the fact that over a third of the information is missing from our voter ID rolls here in Washington.

SPEAKER_14 55:26

But I think about Wow, a third, a third of our voter ID stuff is missing. That means the universe of ballots is increased by 33%.33333. That's a lot, Ron. That's a lot. That means when you and I vote, our vote is essentially mitigated with fake ballots. And if you vote Democrat and I vote Democrat, then they're the deciding vote. Does that make sense? Or if you vote Republican and I vote Democrat, that one-third of votes that are unaccounted for, if these are real people or not, remember, they've got your book. They just don't can't tie it to you. Right. Okay. They've got your ballot, but we don't know if these are real people. We've already talked about in Washington State the driver's license problems and the multiple ballots being sent to apartments with one, you know, a hundred ballots going to an apartment with one person. This is if they pass the Save America Act Ron, it could change everything.

SPEAKER_18 56:18

I know.

SPEAKER_14 56:20

Change everything. One third, and they admit that, but they won't disclose, right? They did some study in Utah where they're like, oh, we we purviewed the roles and we only found one single non-citizen on the whole roles. And I'm like, well, no, you didn't, because when they registered the vote and they clicked the box, you didn't actually verify it. That's the problem. Even states that say we require ID, that might deter some people, but it doesn't deter the actual dedicated fraudsters. Right. You know what I mean?

SPEAKER_18 56:48

And so it's like click the box if you're 18.

China Breach Claims And 2020 Fallout

SPEAKER_14 56:51

Yeah, click the box if you're because no, no 17-year-olds made it into an R-rated movie ever. You know what I mean? Like, yeah, online, you know, can't enter this website if you're not 21 or something. Click. You know what I mean? Like, nobody cares. All right. John Solomon, yes, uh, yesterday broke his story about election interference from China. And this is supposed to be like a multi-part series. But on the day that we start having the Save America Act debated on the floor, this story breaks. Oh my goodness, don't doesn't this seem convenient for timing? Talk about scripting. You know what I mean? I'll tell you if there's one thing that the Q folks have going for them, is this idea that here's what we're gonna do, but there's this time delta and there's a chess game and a timing. And this is what I've argued with J6ers who wanted restitution immediately. It was like, not until they proved the 2020 election was stolen, and then it becomes obvious you gotta pay us. You know what I mean? But until it's proven, you're not gonna get over that hump because of the political capital it would spend to do it. So, John Solomon, on the day that the Save America Act goes to the Senate floor, is got this story from information he got from Biden officials. Okay. Now, the Trump DOJ has pretty much been silent on this information. Who knows why? Probably keeping their powder dry. But let's listen to this. John Solomon has absolute confirmation that China got into our electronic voter rolls and what they did with it? Hmm.

SPEAKER_06 58:18

Good evening, America. Happy Monday, and welcome to the latest edition of Just the News, No Noise. I'm your host, John Solomon, reporting to you from the nation's capital. And today we have a bombshell, something that has been kept from you for nearly six years. In as early as February of 2020, the United States Intelligence Committee determined that China had breached U.S. voter registration data, had gained access to the data that uh uh voters use to register to vote in the 2020 election. Now remember, we've been told time and time now. Let me make a point on this.

SPEAKER_14 58:54

Even if you're in a solid state like Utah, right? Solid state like Utah that claims they have their voter rolls all tight, nice and tidy. What is the big complaint about Republicans? They don't turn out to vote, but the Democrats do. Do you believe the Democrats turn out in as great of numbers as the Republicans?

SPEAKER_18 59:14

No, I don't.

SPEAKER_14 59:15

I don't believe it. I think I think you're gonna find some 30, 40% turnout max everywhere, both both sides. But the Democrats, the lat ever since Obama, have had a really high turnout.

SPEAKER_18 59:26

I know.

SPEAKER_14 59:27

So if China can access the voter registration and they can see who you're registered to vote for and they play the odds game, they could send in those Democrat ballots without the Democrat even knowing.

SPEAKER_18 59:39

Absolutely.

SPEAKER_14 59:39

And all of a sudden, well, the Democrats, they love mail and balloting because it's so convenient.

SPEAKER_18 59:44

And they're super patriotic, so it's a high percentage of return ballots.

SPEAKER_14 59:47

And you know, the whole ballot harvesting thing going on in Pennsylvania and in Georgia and in California that's basically been institutionalized. Well, those ballots, as we know from the 2000 mules, were probably being printed off at an NGO office. Could China have said, hey, print these ballots off for these registered voters? Because when you audit it, you'll find a registered voter behind it. They just haven't voted for 14 cycles. So they're unlikely to check or vote this time around.

SPEAKER_18 1:00:12

But all of a sudden, they're voting like champions.

SPEAKER_14 1:00:14

And that's absolutely confirmed because in all of the swing states in 2020, there were people who showed up to vote because Trump was on the ballot. This is the most important election, COVID, and they were handed provisional ballots because their ballot had already been voted and they'd been checked in somewhere. And they were like, but I'm standing here. That's how they did it, folks. That was one of the ways they did it.

SPEAKER_06 1:00:35

And again, there were no foreign interferences in the 2020 election. But the U.S. intelligence community absolutely concluded that China had done this. They had several reports involving several states. Now we don't know this yet because anyone in the Trump administration has declassified that information. They may soon do so. We've asked them to do, and I believe they're honestly working on it. We know this because we were able to get a document that was declassified by the Biden administration that referred to these findings in April of 2020. It is a National Intelligence Council memo.

SPEAKER_14 1:01:12

If you go over to Justinnews.com right now, the story Now that's not April 2021 after the election, and it was too late to do anything. This is April of 2020, which means Gina Haspel and the people that were around at that time and Pompeo let this go. They let it go. They let it go. Everything that happened in 2020, the mail-in voting, the suspension of the state elections, they knew that China was in the systems. And it doesn't take a rocket scientist. We peasants figured it out in real time watching it happen. It was obvious, you know. Hey, if you step on that rake that's flipped upside down, it'll smack you in the face. Hey, if you suspend the state constitution and allow mail and voting and concentrate to voting, well, that sounds like it's gonna be easy to cheat.

SPEAKER_06 1:02:00

Just moved a few minutes ago. You can download that document and read it yourself. Page uh three, paragraph two, a single sentence that says that the China began accessing voter registration data in hopes of an analyzing uh American public opinion in the 2020 election. Now, we have several intelligence officials confirming that this has been covered up for years. The only person ever to refer to it was the current CIA director, then the former, then the deputy, excuse me, the uh director of national intelligence under President Trump in 2020, who made reference to China's extensive intrusions on the 2020 election, accusing the CIA at the time of not paying enough attention to it. Now he's the director of the CIA, John Radcliffe is. Uh, but you will see all of the data. There are memos, interviews, open source intelligence that we guide you to all of the facts, all on the record. Uh, it is a pretty big story. Go check it out at justinnews.com.

SPEAKER_14 1:02:59

Now, good evening, America. Happy Monday and welcome to was required by Donald Trump to have that report out in December of 2020 so that something could be done with it by January 6th of 2021. January 6th, 2021 rolls around. There's an incident that happens that will live an infamy. The second largest attack on American democracy since the Civil War, you know, that kind of bullshit. Anyways. And January 7th. So as I'm getting it in the airport, getting ready to fly home from the District of Columbia after making my voice be heard about the election, Ratcliffe puts this out and says, Oh, yeah, there was a little bit of Chinese interference. It would have been monumental, would have justified everything that happened the next day, the lot the day before. But it basically got ignored. Basically got ignored. Because why? The senators and the Republicans, we're done with Trump. Lindsey Graham up there, I'm done with Trump. Kelly Loffler, I'm done with Trump.

SPEAKER_18 1:03:51

Well, if you're fool, if you're uh full of a Kool-Aid, you know, all the mainstream media news outlets didn't want to cover it.

Medicaid Fraud Task Force

SPEAKER_14 1:03:57

Yeah, and I hate to get any extra downloads in Langley, Virginia today, but the director of the CIA, Ratcliffe, according to Patrick Byrne, his allegation says that Ratcliffe is compromised. He found himself in a hotel room twice with some women, not underage, but some women, and that kind of compromises him. And that's according to Emerald Robinson, who's mostly getting information from Patrick Byrne, one of the reasons why he kind of sat on that report until the 11th hour when nobody could or would do anything about it. Pretty interesting. Carlitz, Taylor, y'all will be vindicated. I hope you get millions as remedy. Me too, bro. Me too. I'll take it in Bitcoin, though. I don't want it in dollars. Okay. Just kidding. I don't want to jinx it on my Bitcoin. All right. So the other thing that happened yesterday was it became official that they uh it became well, let me make sure I got this order right. Okay, so it became official yesterday. They signed into an executive order basically making JD Vance the head of the fraud bureau that's gonna go after all of the Medicaid, Medicare, social services fraud all around the country. Again, finally, uh task force. We're not just leaving this up to the independent independent district attorneys to figure it out, right? And state AGs, it's gonna be a federal thing. Why? Because the feds have access to IRS data, they have access to bank accounts, they have access to the things that we hate to acknowledge that they have access to. But that's going to allow them to sort this out a little bit better. Stephen Miller said this entire scheme for fraud going across the country, what they discovered since they've been looking at this is that the Democrats created literally a money pipeline to feed these illegal illegal immigrants. And of course, the because of motor voter under Obama, if you get any government services, they automatically registered you to vote.

SPEAKER_25 1:05:46

Well, under President Trump's leadership, as we've seen, uh the illegal flow across the southern border was stopped completely. What we found since President Trump came into office is that the Democrats have set up a system to funnel hundreds of Billions and ultimately trillions of dollars to migrants that are in our country, oftentimes from places like Somalia. So, as an example, uh ICE recently asked a group of illegal immigrants that were in detention whether or not they were receiving Medicaid. Half of them raised their hands and volunteered that they were on Medicaid, just volunteered that. These are the ones who are hiding, right? They also asked illegal aliens how they paid their medical bills, and they said that if they don't have Medicaid, they go to hospitals, they get free care there, and they bill it to the taxpayers. So they aren't paying for any of their own health care in this country. This is one example. And we've seen this over and over and over again. So under President Trump's leadership, and then of course with JD and the head of the FTC, Andrew Ferguson, we are going to see the first ever effort in American history to reclaim the ultimately trillions of dollars that were stolen from taxpayers. I believe, and I know President Trump believes, that when this theft is exposed, we will see that if all of it were stopped, it would be enough to balance the budget. The extraction of wealth from American taxpayers to people who don't belong here is the primary cause of the national debt. And this is the first ever effort to shut that down.

SPEAKER_14 1:07:10

Thank you, Mr. One of the One of our students over at 1776 Live, one of the things we talk a lot about is debt discharge using uh a method called equity. And I don't ever talk about it here. I encourage you to come to one of our Ignite presentations on Thursday at 4 30 p.m. Pacific time. You have to go to 1776live.us to register. But this student was talking about discharging a medical bill. Discharging is one of your unalienable rights, essentially, this um that we have. And when she was dealing, she has insurance and she was trying to discharge this medical bill. And the hospital kept calling her and saying, Well, you have insurance, so give us your information. She said, I'm not going to give you information. I want to discharge this. And when she went through the steps and the instructions, she said, Well, take the what I sent you and take it to the Fed discount window. I tell her what to say and discharge this. And you know what the phone operator said to her? Well, we only do that for people that don't have insurance. That's what the illegal immigrants were using. They can't deny you service and it gets paid. The problem is that's a right that you have as an American national, not that they have as illegal immigrants. But because you have stupid Obamacare insurance, you end up paying through the Obamacare system instead of through the Fed discount window like the illegals get. He just said it right there.

SPEAKER_19 1:08:29

Oh, wow.

SPEAKER_14 1:08:30

They took your exemption and your immunity because you can't pay your debts with gold and silver. They took that from you and they gave that benefit to illegal immigrants who have no idea why they're able to do that. Just go get service, bill it. You got a cold, go to the emergency room, fill up the waiting room so the guy with a freaking pike poking out of his eye has to wait.

SPEAKER_18 1:08:51

And they're like, America is great.

Debt Buybacks And Sound Money

SPEAKER_14 1:08:54

Tell all your friends. The promise to American citizens and American nationals was that you would not go bankrupt over medical care. That is of all the things we want for the social safety net, is when you get that million-dollar medical bill, you can discharge it. Okay. That it will be paid. Not that you, you know, but the idea is that you pay what you have. And then once you don't have anything, then the social safety net kicks in. And there's a mechanism that has always been in place for that. But you're never taught about it, and you're steered into stupid insurance to cover those overages instead of the actual social safety net, because the insurance program is a private business making profit off what should have been your unalienable right. Mother effers. These guys are unindecent. Calm down. Now, the the it gets even better than this. Last week, the treasury bought back debt. When the treasury buys back debt, is that a good thing or a bad thing, Ron?

SPEAKER_18 1:09:53

Uh, I would say it's probably a good thing because it takes money out of circulation.

SPEAKER_14 1:09:56

Takes money out of circulation. It pays off the debt to the Federal Reserve, which should should lower in inflation. But either way, I thought I thought Fort Knox was full of gold. Apparently, we spent it all a long time ago. So, what they've done is that last week the Fed bought back$14.7 billion of bonds from the Federal Reserve. That was the largest ever debt buyback in history. And this week they did another$15 billion. Now, doomsdayers will go, what are you doing? This is lowering how much interest you pay. The per capita allotment of national debt interest, you know, you're born with like$150,000 in debt. Now you're born with$149,950 in debt. Oh, right. I mean, we've got a$38 trillion debt. So we mean what's$15 billion amongst friends? You know what I mean? But still, the indicators of this are getting better and better. This is a direct result of tariffs. This isn't because they raise tax rates at all. It's because we're we're getting our gold back from these other countries where we've been shipping it off to buy their cheap goods. Okay, so now they've got to pay to sell us those cheap goods. That's what the tariff is doing. It's a direct pay down of the national debt. And it didn't come out of my pocket. This is excellent news. So in this hearing, they went on to explain that if we could get rid of all the fraud, right, we're already got the national deficit down to 57% of what it was, or down by 57%. But in addition, if you can get rid of all of the fraud in America, the social services fraud, you'd actually be able to balance the budget.

SPEAKER_25 1:11:32

I believe President Trump believes that when this theft is exposed, we will see that if all of it were stopped, it would be enough to balance the budget. The extraction of wealth from American taxpayers to people who don't belong here is the primary cause of the national debt. And this is the first ever effort to shut that down. Thank you, Mr. President.

SPEAKER_14 1:11:52

First ever. And then everyone knows they've been cheating for years. I believe in our president. It's the first ever attempt to shut it down. First ever attempt to shut it down. And if the I mean you're talking 19 billion on the surface in Minnesota, okay. California, it's gonna probably be close to a trillion dollars. Okay. On the surface, it's that high. Once you dig down and go deeper, it's these numbers are gonna be huge. With the tariffs, with that, you could actually balance the budget.

SPEAKER_18 1:12:21

We might find out that America is doesn't really need to be in debt at all.

unknown 1:12:29

Okay.

SPEAKER_18 1:12:29

We control it. It seems to me like the debt has been like a strategy of some kind.

SPEAKER_14 1:12:34

It is. It's a strategy of the central bankers.

SPEAKER_18 1:12:36

Right.

Birthright Citizenship And Birth Tourism

SPEAKER_14 1:12:37

It's this bank of life, and it really you either have a credit system or you have a debt system. The London has used a debt system because they're this little island, so they got to send paper notes across the sea, and some of those ships, you know, sink and they never return to redeem their notes. So they could fractional reserve this stuff. Well, they have a debt system. This is the London bankers. It's the the word British from Latin, who named Britain, means the banker. Okay. So London is the bankers, the British, the bankers. The rest of the world has operated historically on a credit system, but not London. We are the inheritors of a debt system via Bretton Woods. We were a credit country up until 1913, and then we became one of these subservient debtor countries. And then when Britain went totally tits up after World War II, we took over. Okay. We don't have to operate this way. We could operate on a credit system, which is what I truly believe Trump is steering us towards to use a sound money: gold, silver, bitcoin, oil, something real. Pretty pretty amazing. Now, along with the Save America Act, along with the election intrusion, along with all the fraud committed by illegals, people who shouldn't be entitled to benefits, one of the big things is cutting off the birthright citizenship because this has been taken advantage of not just by people hopping across the border on in the South, having a kid and staying here and claiming benefits and having quote unquote anchor babies, but China has used loopholes where they get free travel to American territories, have their kids, and go back. This numbers in the millions. There are millions of American citizens in China that have never spoken one word of English. And because they're abroad, they can pick which precincts they want to vote in. And they can claim benefits by all kinds of location manipulation. You know, go get yourself a P.O. box or some address in the United States, and you can claim services.

SPEAKER_04 1:14:39

This is a U.S. territory, but you say there's been a troubling rise in birth tourism there. Tell us about this.

SPEAKER_10 1:14:46

Yeah, so if you have foreign nationals that come in via um like communist China and they come to the Mariana Islands, their child, if it's born there in the Mariana Islands because it's an American territory, becomes a citizen. So President Obama put in place a visa list visit to the Mariana Islands for people from Communist China. Well, you had all these women that came in and had birth there, and they claimed their child as a citizen then. In fact, the births were far more for foreign nationals than there were for citizens of the Mariana Islands.

SPEAKER_14 1:15:22

How convenient? People just happen to have their kids in over 50. Far more? You know, I had this experience in Silverdale when my youngest son was born. Oh, I've told this before. So we're in there, and um, you know, they're like giving us the diaper bag, and we we didn't, we we were self-pay. So they were telling, you know, they brought in this cart with all these goodies, you know, diaper bags, and oh, you don't have insurance. Give that back, give that back, give that back, right? And it was like, oh, okay, so we don't get all that. So I got talking to this one nurse, real sweet lady, looked really Midwestern, uh, white, blonde hair, super sweet lady, older, maybe 60s. And uh she we got talking and she goes, Oh, it's my kid, my youngest son was born with like platinum blonde hair that was three inches long, super rare. Okay. And she goes, Man, I can't remember the last time I saw a blonde baby with this much hair. Usually the white kids are born bald. And she was like, All the kids in here that are born with with a lot of hair are usually, you know, Hispanic. And I was like, Oh, yeah, is that a lot? She goes, Well, at least 50%. Are you serious? And she goes, She's like, looks around, you know, she's like, Over 50% of the kids born in this hospital are born to illegal immigrants. Oh, that was in Silverdale here. And I'm always like, Where are these people? Right. But that's the thing, even in our local county, over 50% of the kids that are born that are now getting birthright citizenship are being born to foreign nationals that you know, she said illegal immigrant. I don't know, maybe they have a green card. Who freaking cares? The point is, 50% in our little county now, the the Mar Mariana Islands, over 50%, just random nine-month pregnant ladies going on vacation.

SPEAKER_10 1:17:03

Hello? We need to close that loophole, just like so many things in our immigration law. I've made a proposal to do it. I hope Secretary Gnome will close that loophole.

SPEAKER_14 1:17:14

Yeah, me too. Seriously. What do we got?

SPEAKER_18 1:17:17

Iron Clinton. Well, let's try me some coffee. It might be a little late in the morning, but maybe not for some people. Uh, still haven't tried 1775 coffee. Uh surprise me if you haven't. So now's your shot, though. The 1775 starter kit just dropped a thousand units. You're getting the bold dark roast that hits hard, the smooth medium roast, and the vitality mushroom coffee for clean energy and laser focus, no crash, all single origin, small batch, toxin free and mold free. Plus, you're also getting a gold spoon clip because freedom isn't scooped with plastic. A froth or strong enough to stir up your mother loss and your coffee's opinions. Let's switch that. And a black 1775 Tumblr.$170 worth of coffee and gear. Yours for$99. This is for the ones who've been watching$1775 blow up on Rumble. Wonder if it's actually worth it. Spoiler, it is. Go to 1775coffee.com slash studio and grab your starter kit before they're gone. Old beans, clean fuel, and a morning routine that stands for something just like Rumble does.

Supreme Court Tariffs And Power

SPEAKER_14 1:18:19

Awesome. Gotta get that last one in there. Okay. So with the birthright citizenship, with the Save America Act, and how the court chose not to act in 2020, literally stood by. Go read Justice Thomas's opinion when they decided not to review the 2020 election when Ken Paxson sued all the Democrat states that had violated their constitution, right? And said, Oh, the president doesn't have standing. The Supreme Court has sat on their hands and the tariff decision, right? We read what Donald Trump said yesterday. He's like, these Republican-appointed Supreme Court justices, they're so afraid of not being independent, not being constitutionalist, and not being whatever. They'll vote against their own party, their political opinions, and sometimes the law to fit in to get a positive article from um the Wall Street Journal. Amy Coney Barrett is the worst offender of this, right? She she's, I don't know if it's because she's female, I don't know if because she's Catholic. I don't know what it is. You'd think that these Supreme Court judges would have a freaking spine. And, you know, maybe on some issues they do. But she's been one that has absolutely she's gone against her own prior decisions.

SPEAKER_18 1:19:27

She's voted against herself.

SPEAKER_14 1:19:29

She's voted against herself. Okay. And she's on other one of these ones. They uh um Mike Davis calls them the Chevy Chase Republicans. Apparently, Chevy Chase is like a country club or a neighborhood somewhere in the Baltimore, Maryland area where all these, you know, legal e legal eagles all hang out. The Chevy Chase Republicans. Anyways, so Donald Trump addressed this yesterday with the Supreme Court and how disappointed he is. And again, this birthright citizenship is one of the things on the docket. The Supreme Court could nip this in the bud and just define it as hey, it's for people born here whose parents are under the jurisdiction thereof. If you're here illegally, you're not in the system, you're not under our jurisdiction. You're to be repelled without due process. No papers, you go. You're a tourist. Bye-bye. You're a tourist. You don't, we're not under our jurisdiction, right? You're gone. So Donald Trump addresses this how the Supreme Court has been a problem.

SPEAKER_03 1:20:25

Barack is saying Obama appoints a member of the Supreme Court. That member never goes against him. And they're proud about it. They say, I don't give a damn if it's good or bad. That man appointed me and I'm never gonna let him down. I don't say that's right. I just say they stick together. Republicans go the opposite way. If Donald Trump appointed me, I'm gonna show the world that I can be totally just that I can be independent of that. He's not controlling me. And I don't want to control them. I just want to have smart decisions. They gave us a decision on tariffs the other day. It won't change tariffs, I can do it a different way. I always knew I could do it a different way. This was a little quicker, a little easier, a little better. But they gave us a decision that could cost this country five hundred billion dollars to pay people back. Because now I have to start the tariffs all over again. Very simple. And what happens with the money I've already collected? Why didn't they say starting from now, go the other way? Five hundred billion dollars, perhaps. It's so sad.

SPEAKER_14 1:21:43

It is so sad. Right? Why do they do that? Again, they weaponize your virtue. Republicans are independent, we're constitutionalists, and they'd say, Oh, then you can't vote for Donald Trump because he's bad man, he's orange. This is the ridiculousness of it.

SPEAKER_18 1:21:58

Well, and also just for scope and scale, remember the impact of that$15 billion. We're talking here$500 billion.

New York Estate Tax And Sharia Worries

SPEAKER_14 1:22:07

Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. Big time. Now, when I was on the plane with those Zoomer Waffins, told that story a couple times, they the one gal had voted for Mendami. She was so excited for Mandami and all the things that were going to be great. Well, you know, there's nothing in life that's free. Go ask Cuba. Okay. There's nothing in life that's actually free. And so Mandami has proposed a new estate tax. Oh. So currently, when you die and you're in New York State, if you the total value of your estate is over$7 million, then you have estate taxes. And they're pretty steep in New York, but you have to reach that$7 million threshold. Which, you know, unbelievably or not, if you're living in Manhattan and you've got a nice penthouse apartment and a rental out in the country, you could get there. But you're doing pretty well. You know what I mean? You've got a pretty decent estate.

SPEAKER_18 1:22:56

You're probably above average.

SPEAKER_14 1:22:57

Well, Mandami wants to lower this down to you want to pick a number?

SPEAKER_18 1:23:01

How about 200,000?

SPEAKER_14 1:23:04

Oh, that's way low. 750 grand. Oh. 750 grand. Which, you know, if you're like a dirt poor guy living on Obamacare, I'll never have a net worth of 750 grand.

SPEAKER_18 1:23:14

But if you ever become a homeowner in New York, well, this is exactly like the policies that are getting pushed out here in Seattle.

SPEAKER_14 1:23:22

Yeah, well, you know, communists, communists are gonna do what communists are gonna do. Okay, they gotta take from the rich to give to the poor. If you're a homeowner in the state of New York and you're not in some backwoods town up in the north, your house is probably worth 750 grand. Yes. So if you achieve the American dream of paying off that home and it appreciates over time, that little investment you made 30, 40, 50 years ago, all of a sudden you're you can't give it to your family. They're gonna have to sell it to pay an inheritance tax.

SPEAKER_20 1:23:51

Nationally, we should raise the estate tax both to bring in more revenue and for equity reasons. I think we should be very, very careful about doing it just in New York because people are mobile and they're potentially more mobile later in life when their kids are grown and they may be retired. And it would really undermine the whole purpose of a move like that if people left. We'd actually get less revenue. That would be bad for everybody.

The business community has been blasting the proposal. Bill Ackman posted on X quote, Mam Dani's strategy appears to make New York City an unattractive place to live and to die. Mamdani is facing a$5.4 billion city budget deficit for the fiscal year that begins July 1st. This is one of the ways he is looking to close that gap.

SPEAKER_05 1:24:36

Harris? Wow, that line from Bill Ackman. I mean, you don't want to live here and you don't want to die here. That is some strong stuff. Madison, thank you. Any moment now here's the thing. Okay, they're not stupid because money's not real.

Wrap-Up And Peasant Outro

SPEAKER_14 1:24:50

It's not real in our current economy. So what is Mondami's real objective here? He's Muslim. What's his real objective here? Sharia law. Okay, so how are you going to implement Sharia law by a vote? You got to get rid of the people that would oppose it. Who would oppose it? Anybody with money. The people that he's pushing out with these tax programs. Bye-bye. We're up to the book. So it's like, oh, we're raising money to pay the poor. Well, that's there. That's how you get to poor people to support it. But what'll happen is you'll drain your state of people who would vote for conservative fiscal policies because they can't afford to live there. And what are you left with? That's it. It's the only way to do it. All right, guys, that's it for us today. No private. Amazing. Now, for those of you that only listen to the public side, shame on you. You should be Rumble Premium members so you could listen to us in the private. But we have a kick butt outro that we play at the end of private that people love. And we haven't played it for the end of public in a long time. So this is your chance to listen to the outro. We'll see the rest of you. We'll see you guys all again tomorrow. Bye.

SPEAKER_23 1:26:47

We perpetuate the economic and social differences. How do you do, good lady? Um king of the Britons. Whose castle is that? We all we are all Britons. I am your king. Stop perpetuating autocracy in which the working class is. Then who is your lord? We don't have a lord. What? I told you. We're in a non-closed English commune. We take it in turn to have a sort of executive officer for the week.

SPEAKER_17 1:27:40

Yes.

SPEAKER_23 1:27:41

But all the decisions of that officer have to be ratified at a special by weekly meeting. Don't vote for kings. Well, how to 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. 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! Oh, but you can't expect to wield supreme executive power just because some watery tart threw a sword at you. Shut up! Oh but if I went round saying I was an emperor, just because some Moisson bint had lobbed a scimitar at me, they put me away. Shut up, will you? Shut up! Ah! Now we 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. Do you see him repressing me? You saw it, didn't you?
