Tulsi Gabbard’s Exit Memo And The COVID Origin Fight

One news cycle can feel like noise, until you line the stories up and the pattern snaps into focus. We start with COVID and the institutional trust collapse that still hangs over everything, reacting to Tulsi Gabbard’s claims of never-before-seen communications that point to intelligence community pressure, lab leak suppression, and retaliation against dissenting analysts. From gain-of-function funding questions to Fauci’s testimony and the role of media amplification, we talk through why “transparency” is not a slogan, it’s the only route back to consent and accountability.

Next, we follow that same trust problem into elections and governance. We dig into chain of custody failures, Maricopa County drop box documentation gaps, duplicate ballot images, and the political fight around the SAVE Act and voter ID. We also look at LA’s move toward noncitizen voting, the FBI’s Skid Row bribery probe, and the uncomfortable tension between tightening election rules while lawmakers argue to expand surveillance powers through FISA Section 702.

Finally, we connect foreign policy and economics to your real life: Israel-Iran negotiations, Ukraine security guarantees, gas prices, depleted strategic oil reserves, inflation signals, and why national debt math pushes leaders toward printing. That’s where Bitcoin enters the conversation as a potential off-ramp via a Bitcoin strategic reserve, plus a quick hit on a major Supreme Court gun rights decision.

Welcome From The Peasants

SPEAKER_19 0:03

Silence silence.

SPEAKER_07 0:07

And when they went to the green, the two bread. Do you know what's going on?

SPEAKER_14 0:15

Let me take the bum.

SPEAKER_18 0:32

It's a little gun. It's gummy. 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.

SPEAKER_19 1:01

Good morning, peasants.

SPEAKER_18 1:02

Welcome to another episode of The Peasants Perspective. Took a second, Ron. I had to click some buttons. Carlites, good morning. First up in the chats. Peasants Perspective says, do not adjust your TV set. What you're about to experience is real. Yes, it is. Carlito and Tiffany, hello, y'all. And then that's Ron again saying, Oh, it's on YouTube. Yeah. When Ron posts a comment, it double posts. Yeah. Oh, fun, you guys. So glad you're joining us. We'll give everybody a couple minutes to jump in before we do the simultaneous sip. Man, you came in this morning and you were like, I heard something about Tulsi Gabbard spilling the beans. It's like, yes, the beans and everything else with it. Here's my take. Okay. We're gonna hear a little bit about COVID today, a little bit about COVID. My life was irrevocably altered like all of us were. Yes. Yeah, everybody had some alteration. You know, there was some pattern disruption in your life. But for some of us, it was more altering than others. There were people who lost their businesses, people who, in some weird situations, lost their families. I'll tell you this this podcast only started because of COVID. Had it not been for COVID, I would not have been waking up at 4 a.m. to come in and rant into a microphone about all the crazy stuff we were seeing.

SPEAKER_17 2:14

And I first I first came here to learn all about what was gaslighting.

SPEAKER_18 2:18

What is gaslighting? Maybe Taylor's gaslighting us, telling there's a big giant conspiracy controlling the world. Anyways, and I remember so well as we were going over the news in 2020. I always jokingly called this a conspiracy show. And you came and said, Man, I thought this was a conspiracy show. And I looked at you, I said, It's news. It's just so funny. Well, turns out, Ron, we were pretty much right all the way through it. I hate that. I know. Huge cost for being right, huge cost for being right. I'll tell you that. Bray the Rosary Daily, it's Friday. Yes, it is. Yes, it is. John Attackis, good morning. Coming from Idaho. Are you watching it inside the Tesla again? He sent me a picture of him watching the podcast in the Tesla on the screen. And I was like, that is cool. You know, it blows my mind when people tell me they watch me on the TV screen. I'm like, wow. Or, you know, my dad showed send me a picture of it on the Tesla. And I'm like, man, we're we're big time, Ron. We're we're streaming live right onto the road.

SPEAKER_17 3:17

People don't buy like sweet armchairs and kick back anymore. They get their Tesla.

SPEAKER_18 3:21

They get the Tesla and just let it drive them around. Oh, I had a nephew that came into town the other day and he goes, Hey, Uncle Taylor. He's like, I see you almost every day. And I was like, he goes, My mom puts you on TV and she folds laundry. And I was like, Oh, that's fun. That's really fun. Oh, Donataka says, No truck. I have a story later. Like something went wrong with the Tesla. Did you get distracted driving too many times? Did your Tesla shut you out? Oh my goodness. How fun is that?

Simultaneous Sip And Cold Open

SPEAKER_18 3:50

All right, guys. It is time for the simultaneous sip. And all you need is a cup or a mug or a glass, a tankard, a chalice of stein, a canteen, jug, or flask, a vessel of any kind. Fill it with your favorite liquid. I like coffee with a little macchiato cream in it today. And join me now for the unplayer load pleasure of the dopamine hit of the day, the thing that makes everything better. It's the simultaneous sip, and it starts right now.

SPEAKER_24 4:12

It's not lost on me that the Democrats just want votes from anybody they can get it from. And they don't mind some illegal's vote either. And that's inexcusable.

SPEAKER_18 4:22

Stephen Smith has some of the best fakes. Some of the best tapes. All right, let's jump into this today. So

Tulsi Gabbard On COVID Cover-Up

SPEAKER_18 4:29

the first video we're gonna watch is a little bit of a longer video, but it is incredibly important because this was a world-altering event. COVID was, and everything about COVID, we were gaslit, Ron. Did you ever figure out the definition of gaslighting? I did eventually, yes. It's when they lie to your face. That's gaslighting. So we were gaslit over COVID. And it was one of the biggest deep state plots you can possibly imagine. People all around the world were affected by this. People died from the virus itself. People died from the vaccine that was given as a solution to the virus. And everything we were suspected. The truth tellers were out paying attention, reading the white papers, reading the documents, going through the science. And we discovered that we were being gaslit. And what did gaslit mean? They were lying to our faces. Okay. And so Tulsi Gabbard yesterday, in her very last day, in the office of director of national intelligence, who's been curating a lot of this intelligence and has been in charge of releasing a lot of stuff, gave her final parting report yesterday.

SPEAKER_12 6:01

Now, in support of President Trump's maximum transparency mandate, today, on my final day as director of national intelligence.

SPEAKER_18 6:09

All right, let's let's we're gonna break it up obviously a couple times here. So, Bouchy, this is stuff for our audience, especially if you've listened for any length of time. You probably already know this. And most likely if you're you know streaming on Rumble and you're watching the J6er, you're probably already in this camp.

SPEAKER_17 6:26

Yeah, not a not a huge revelation.

SPEAKER_18 6:28

Yeah, not a huge revelation to us. To some people, they're going, oh my goodness. Dell Bigtree was right. What? Yeah. So we were funding gain of function in Wuhan, China. She says that the lab leak, the the that widely suspect, you know, is the virus that was released in the accidental lab lease in Wuhan, China. I think there's a lot of questions as to whether it was accidental or whether it was intentional. If it was accidental, that is a very charitable way to look at it. The challenge with it being accidental is the timing of it. The timing of it. So if this was a lab leak that the Chinese, in collaboration with one of the whatever other deep state actors, if they decided to cover it up, good gravy they got the timing right, right? In an election year, as Donald Trump is getting impeached, thinking he's got clean sailing to the election season in 2020, leads to this lockdown, you know, the the stay homes, which then leads to the lockdowns. George Floyd happens. It's it's better for your health to go protest racism than stay socially distanced.

SPEAKER_17 7:28

I mean, it was almost down to the minute.

SPEAKER_18 7:30

It was like it was the timing, you know, suspending state constitutions, all of this stuff that was set in motion by an accidental lab leak is a challenge.

SPEAKER_17 7:38

Well, never mind all the meetings and stuff that they had before the leak ever happened.

SPEAKER_18 7:42

Yeah. Now, this could be this there's a possibility this was a rush job. Right? There's a possibility because we think that the lab the leak happened in October, November of 2019. So it's possible that by the time January, February rolls around when there's the impeachment, that in China this virus was spreading and now they were kind of in damage control. And of course, as every Democrat knows, never let a good crisis go to waste. Oh, yeah. Maybe they did a rush job and said, hey, we can use this as a way to destroy things. I don't know about that. I tend to think that the timing is still too close to just be incidental. But let's continue on here with Tulsi Gabbard. Let's jump back just a moment so we don't lose anything.

SPEAKER_12 8:22

Today, on my final day as director of national intelligence, I'm releasing never-before-seen communications and documents that expose exactly how Fauci worked with politicized career leadership in the intelligence community to suppress the truth about his actions, the virus's lab leak origins, and his role in directing U.S. funding for this dangerous research that caused immeasurable harm and countless lost lives. Now, these documents expose Fauci's direct role in influencing and manipulating IC assessments on COVID-19, and how Fauci lied to Congress in 2024 when under oath he denied knowledge of or participation in discussions with intelligence officials about viral research. We also received testimony from multiple intelligence community whistleblowers who reported retaliation for challenging the intelligence community's manipulation of intelligence on the virus's origins, once again revealing a clear pattern of suppressing dissent, silencing critics, and burying the truth. Dr. Fauci's close relationships with the intelligence community enabled him to assume three key roles that shield him from scrutiny. First, Dr. Fauci funded dangerous gain of function coronavirus research linked to big pharma and their pursuit of universal vaccines worth trillions of dollars. Second, Dr. Fauci was the behind-the-scenes advisor who, alongside his hand-picked so-called experts, pushed the intelligence community to endorse a natural animal origin to hide his dangerous gain of function research that he funded using taxpayer dollars. All of this in a deliberate attempt to cover up the truth and shift the blame and attention away from Fauci's own actions. Third, Dr. Fauci became the nation's pandemic pundit, and he publicly pushed lies, disinformation, and censorship using every platform available. Now, according to hundreds of reviewed emails, which are included in this release, the intelligence community almost always incorporated Fauci's recommendations. He promoted a fraudulent paper whose publication he helped prompt as legitimate information for intelligence community consideration. Senior analysts praised Dr. Fauci, not as a policymaker, but as what they called an unbiased guide to the real coronavirus experts, while deliberately ignoring experts who might dissent from Fauci's narratives. Now, Fauci didn't stop there. He blatantly lied to Congress under oath during his 2024 testimony to the House Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus pandemic, denying that he ever spoke to any intelligence agency about COVID. Now, the correspondence I'm releasing today directly contradicts his sworn testimony. We received statements from multiple whistleblowers revealing that the intelligence analysts who dared to challenge Dr. Fauci's COVID origin conclusions faced threats of retaliation, marginalization, and many suffered career setbacks. For example, a contractor was terminated just days after coming forward to ODI as a whistleblower. Another example, those who advocated for the lab leak hypothesis or expressed dissenting views were reminded by their managers that leadership would determine which analysts would be promoted and which would not. The message was clear. Oops. Go along or be punished. Senior leaders also sought to undermine whistleblowers by removing anonymity, which is required in the whistleblower process, as they made their complaints, and also insisting that their managers or attorneys be present during ODI meetings where these whistleblowers were coming forward with their testimony, obviously creating an atmosphere of intimidation. COVID pandemic caused tremendous hardship and pain for millions of our fellow Americans and countless people around the world. Now after years of lies and censorship and cover-ups, the American people deserve transparency, truth, and accountability. The tactics that were used to hide the truth are straight from the Deep State playbook. Politicized self-serving leaders like Dr. Fauci covered up their own wrongdoing and abuses of power, manipulated intelligence, lied to Congress, and undermined a duly elected president by restricting his access to the vital facts he needed to keep the country safe. It's time you know the truth.

SPEAKER_19 13:14

Wow.

SPEAKER_18 13:15

Wow. And Dr. Fauci will not be held accountable. At all. At all. Why? Because he has an autopin party. I just don't I don't know what they're gonna do. I don't think they're gonna do anything. But that disclosure is stunning. What did we just learn from that?

SPEAKER_17 13:31

Well uh I didn't learn anything. It's here's what I learned. Because I already knew what what they were she was gonna say. I I mean here's what I learned.

SPEAKER_14 13:41

Okay.

SPEAKER_18 13:42

This is a case study, right?

SPEAKER_14 13:44

Okay.

SPEAKER_18 13:44

All of your worst fears and every dystopian novel that has ever been written about a corrupt tyrannical government, those seeds have been planted and were being watered in our own government. Oh, yeah. Right. There was no depravity that they would not sink to. Lying, covering up, death, destruction, life uh being irrevocably altered, people losing their livelihoods and jobs, threatening blackmail. This is huge. And it's obviously the tip of the iceberg. That's a five and a half minute clip going over what Dr. Fauci did directly with the virus. But think about the family destructions, the people who died alone, lonely inside of a hospice room without their family nearby, right? The birthday parties that didn't happen, the stunted educational growth. There was nothing about COVID that was in the interest of the people.

SPEAKER_17 14:40

In fact, you know, we and we talk about the impacts to us a lot, you know, and you specifically because of your involvement with J6, and that's such a huge national thing, and there's a lot of impact to you and us directly, and our lives are irrevocably changed, but that's not really why I'm here. I'm here mostly because the next generation is screwed. Our youth have been not just irrevocably changed, their lives have been altered forever. They did not have a youthful life like we did growing up. They've had their lives have been robbed from them. The whole generation. They've been I mean, gaslighting is not even the right term for what happened to their lives. I I I can't even put it into words.

SPEAKER_18 15:28

Oh, I know. The idea that this is gonna go mostly unaccounted, other than okay, now we know. This is they did this, right? And it can't be undone.

SPEAKER_17 15:41

It can't be undone.

SPEAKER_18 15:43

When I was in college, I learned about all kinds of lift little scandals that became moments of intrigue through world history. And you can go all the way back to the yellow journalism of the Spanish-American War, and you can you can go to things that are very notable, like the the US, the the the Gulf of Tonkin incident that started the Vietnam War that didn't happen, right? You can go to things like, oh, we had an idea that the Japanese were coming to Pearl Harbor, but we chose not to do anything about it. You could you can go down the road and you can find these little moments Fast and Furious scandal. Uh you can find corrupt politicians. Iran Contra. And these things make you go, huh? That there's this little faction, this little group of people decided they wanted to move guns and drugs to fund the Contras, you know, down to Nicaragua. So that that's that's quite the scandal. But what you see with this COVID is you had literally an entire government approach. Every government office closed their doors and said, work, come online, send an email, can't come in. Right. You had government workers when we saw the clips of people going working from home and they're in their bathtub, and these people are paying six-figure salaries for the government, right? You had an entire government approach getting behind this scandal, giving it life, enforcing it. Vaccine meant people got fired from the military, warriors, people we have invested millions of dollars in training to be killing tools on behalf of the United States government. Oh, you won't take the vaccine, you're out.

SPEAKER_17 17:12

Oh, well, don't forget, six feet safe because I am the science.

SPEAKER_18 17:16

Because they have made it up. Two masks are better than one, and nine masks are better than four. It's like, oh my gosh. The whole thing, right? The whole thing. The amount of depravity they were capable of. When I was in college, I learned these little scandals and it disgusted me. You get to things like the Tuskegee Arab, or not the Arabine, but the Tuskegee experiments where they gave people syphilis and just you know followed them around for a couple decades until their noses fell off without ever telling them they had syphilis. You know what I mean? Don't ask for a second advice. You get free health care over here at the clinic. You know, when we talk about giving gay men AIDS in the 80s in San Francisco, Bauchy's involved with that, right? You go on and on. These are all scandals, but it always feels like it just affects a little niche of people. COVID, they came for the world, man. The hubris that they had. Ron

VAERS Signals And Vaccine Accountability

SPEAKER_18 18:06

Johnson posted another story. This is an ex article that he posted. He talks about in this report, he talks about how at the at all the different agencies that should have been looking at the data that was coming in once the vaccines were actually being rolled out. He says the vaccine adverse event reporting system, VARES, would mask or hide the COVID-19 vaccine adverse safety signals, right? So they were thinking that VARES would hide any of the safety signals. The problem that they didn't count on was that the safety the reports coming in that they acknowledge are typically only 1%, were so big that the VARE system, which is a kind of a corrupt system, couldn't hide it. They had like 26,000 deaths sitting on their desk. A vast majority of these desks, a whole bunch of them. Let's see if we can get to them here. It says look, VARES currently shows 1,676,000, 1 million cumulative worldwide adverse events and 39,099 deaths associated with the COVID-19 injection. Directly associated. And remember, they report about 1%. Because most doctors, when something happens, they don't immediately blame the vaccine. It's just a fact. So it's rare that events get reported. With 9,332, 24% of the deaths occurring within two days of the injection. Most of these tragic adverse events occurred well after the federal health officials should have informed the public about the risks they they knew existed. Instead, they hit or downplayed those risks. As a result, millions were harmed after being denied their right to be to fully informed consent. That's why I consider this to be the biggest government scandal in my lifetime, and one that is crying out for full media attention and coverage. And they won't get it because the media was in on it.

SPEAKER_17 19:49

They benefited from the So we know what the reaction to COVID was. Just imagine if new Coke came out and 1% of the people that drank it died. Yeah, exactly. What would we do with new Coke?

SPEAKER_18 20:02

Uh, you know, when there are advocates that just say you gotta burn it to the ground, get rid of the NIH, the CBC, the FDA, the USDA, all of them. Get rid of all of them. Yes, these are the people that have poisoned Americans with an upside-down food pyramid for decades now.

SPEAKER_17 20:16

These are the people since their inception.

SPEAKER_18 20:19

Since their inception, right? And this is this is all of your worst nightmares are true. They're all the seeds of the dystopian, tyrannical, authoritarian regimes are those seeds are planted and germinating within our government, right? The fact that this happened, the fact that there were the levers and the tools that Fauci could use with the intelligence agency to cover this up, to facilitate what ultimately became a stolen election. It wasn't just a stolen election. Peter Ticklin likes to remind us our country was stolen. Right? That's what that stolen election represented. Our country was stolen. And you, the listeners to this show, we were early adopters of this information. We understood this early on. One of the benefits of a show like this, The Peasants Perspective, is I don't have an agenda other than just to know the truth. I want to know the lay of the land. And I'm open, right? We'll we'll play something, something changes, we'll change. I don't care. I'm not committed to a quote unquote narrative. Does that make sense?

SPEAKER_17 21:25

I just want the truth. And I've been that way my whole life. And what do we get uh accused of from random independence?

SPEAKER_18 21:32

Yeah, being Trump sick Trump slong slackers or something like that. Good gravy. Yes, exactly. We get accused of being sick offense for Trump. It's like, no, hold on. What it is is we're paying attention to the signal through the noise.

SPEAKER_19 21:45

Yep.

SPEAKER_18 21:46

By watching the news every day, by pulling these clips, we are on the front end, right? When you wake up in the morning and join us, Facebook doesn't have these clips until another day or two, right? And then it gets lost in the dilution of life. We can't Keep pretty hyper focused on kind of what's at the front of the news story, the big events. And these events have impacts, right? There's dominoes being knocked over that as they weave their way through the economy or whatever, it affects you. We're giving you a heads up. Inflation's coming. When's it going to hit? Well, by the time it hits, right, it'll be too late to do anything about it. Do something now. Right. We we talk about COVID. It's like stand up, resist. Why? Because every time you acquiesce, you give the tormentors, this is right from Robert Kennedy Jr., more confidence to keep tormenting. You know, if America have become extremely passive and trusting of their government, Scott Adams said it best. You have to turn around the standard of proof. The people are innocent until they're proven guilty, but the government is guilty until they prove themselves innocent. We've become super apathetic. We've become super apathetic, exactly. Which is why I advocate for getting involved. Be the change you want to see in the world. You think our politicians are apathetic? You think the people that are running your local county political parties are apathetic, then go change it.

SPEAKER_17 23:02

It's also why the voting systems were so easy to manipulate, because if people just don't vote, it's just easy to vote for them.

SPEAKER_18 23:09

And so or if you don't vote, it's easy to believe that the other people voted and there was a majority for XYZ retard.

SPEAKER_17 23:18

Yes, it just provides all kinds of cover.

SPEAKER_18 23:20

Yes, you've got to be involved. Now, fortunately, the Trump administration is committed to transparency. Listen, Donald Trump was personally slighted by all this. He was made a fool when it came to COVID. And he'll take some blame for that for a long time. He took the vaccine and he said, this is the greatest vaccine ever. Clearly, he was being lied to, as Tulsi Gabbard said. You're only as good as the information you have, even if you're the president of the United States. John Solomon, one of the best reporters out there from just

Transparency Push And DNI Shakeup

SPEAKER_18 23:45

the news, is actually going to be taking a break, Ron. But he's going to be taking a break because he's going to actually go work for the government.

SPEAKER_26 23:52

One programming note. I want to make sure everybody on this show is aware of it. I put it as a disclaimer on all my shows. I mentioned it on my podcast today. For the next couple of months, I'm working as an unpaid government employee to help the government identify documents that can be released to public. It's your information, after all, bureaucrats keep us from it. I have an opportunity to help the government identify some documents, some secrets, some things you should know about when it comes to weaponization, election integrity, other things we're going to work on that. But during that time, I just want you to know I've stepped aside as the editor-in-chief of Justin News. I still do my reporting. We're still going to do the amazing show here with Amanda. But I want everybody to know that I'm doing this. I'm unpaid. I don't take any money from the government. I think it's a good role for journalists to play, getting more information out. But I want you to know personally.

SPEAKER_17 24:44

I like this.

SPEAKER_18 24:46

Now, a lot of people suspect that John Solomon's kind of on the take from someone. His inside sources and he kind of look listen, John Solomon is as good as they come. He he was one of the first ones to break the Russiagate story in such a way with incontrovertible evidence, right? That that caused the crack that allowed people like us to go, hey, there's another side to this Russiagate story. There's a scandal behind it, right? We and once you followed that thread, it led you right to the COVID truthers, the J6 protesters. There's like a direct line following his threads through the uh the fog, so to speak. So I think that's really interesting. We're gonna have to see how that goes. Now, also remember Jay Clayton got nominated to be to replace Tulsi Cappert as the director of national intelligence, and the Republicans in a rush job.

SPEAKER_23 25:33

Oh, we'll we'll confirm him in a week.

SPEAKER_18 25:36

Why? Because they wanted Pulte not to be in the the seat at the director of national intelligence. He's kind of a bulldog. Donald Trump posted this. He said, Why are the Democrats so afraid of Bill Poulte at DNI? He would be only acting. What do they have to be afraid of? What are they hiding? There must be something big. It mustn't there. Oh my goodness. I think Bill. So Bill Pulte is gonna have at least a week or two, right? Because the Jay Clayton thing's unscheduled at the moment. Trump's like, yeah, give me Pfizer. Give me Pfizer and the Save America or else. So that is wow. That is really fun.

Maricopa Ballot Gaps And Duplicates

SPEAKER_18 26:17

Now, there was on the election integrity front, there is a little bit of more, I don't know if you want to call confirmation of things that we knew literally in real time in 2020 about the election. This is Maricopa County. And this is uh, what is his name here? I can't remember his name. Um, it might it might pop up here, anyways. He's he's he was one of the state senators down in Arizona that was that was participating in the cyber ninja uh inspection of the ballots, and they found out some incredibly damning information. That whole symposium they had was very sad because at the end of it, they couldn't come to a conclusive determination that there was determinative voter fraud. They had all these loose ends where it was like, well, you know, we're missing chain of custody, but maybe, maybe they were legitimate ballots, right? Now they weren't, but they were prevented from doing a paper pulp analysis, which could have definitively proven it. Because if you have a really thin piece of copy paper and you have a card stock ballot, you can't make a determination that it's not the same paper with some kind of forensic evidence. You know, you can't believe your eyes or your fingers, right? So they weren't allowed to destroy the ballots by taking a pulp sample out of them. But nonetheless, we had situations like this.

SPEAKER_02 27:32

We're informed of evidence from the 2020 election about the drop boxes that Miracopa, for example, Miracopa County said that they had over 923,000 ballots that were dropped off of the drop boxes. However, documentation can only account for 189,167 ballots, which means that there's a deficit of 733,000 ballots. That's right. Over 733,000 ballots are unaccounted for. So what have we learned? We learned that the big lie is that this was a secure election. I'm sorry, it was not a safe and secure election. We have so many problems with our process that uh need to be followed through and laws need to be adhered to and complied with.

SPEAKER_11 28:26

So these were the duplicates we found about uh not about sixteen thousand nine hundred and thirty-four voters uh who had submitted sixteen thousand nine nine hundred and thirty-four two copy duplicates, which means uh each of those voters submitted two ballots. Uh okay, two uh return uh early voting ballot return envelopes. Interesting enough, we also found another 188 voters, unique voters, who had submitted uh 376 duplicates. Uh so the total image count was 564 once you removed the duplicates, right? Because you'd want to take one of them. And then finally, uh we found also four individuals who submitted uh 12 duplicates, total images being 16. So the total duplicates was 34, uh 448 uh total images of which 17,332 or 322 were duplicates, 17,126 uh voters. This was by the way, we'll get to it, was not reported in the report. Wow. Whoa.

SPEAKER_18 29:28

Now remember the margin of victory in Arizona was 10,000, 11,000 votes. Yeah, just the duplicates alone could have been the margin of error, let alone the 733,000. I don't know where they came from, box. I don't know. There's just boxes and boxes and boxes of ballots. Chain of custody, what's that? Okay. Now that's that's a great quote. Chain of custody, what's that? Exactly.

SPEAKER_17 29:55

Do you remember that one?

SPEAKER_18 29:56

What was it? That was a quote. Chain of custody, what's that? Yeah, was it really? Yeah, we played it on our show. I have no idea. What what what do you mean, chain of custody? I just got these right off the copy machine. Well, at least to note it. It's so bad. It's so bad.

SPEAKER_17 30:16

I can't remember her name. It was uh it was a chick.

SPEAKER_18 30:19

What was the definition of gaslighting? Oh, yeah, lying to your face. Lying to your face. So, in an in an act of desperation, California, I mean, they have they have rigged their system in such a way that they can could commit what would otherwise, under any reasonable person's view, see as fraudulent, false, rigged, cheating. Under any standard, you would consider it that. They totally legalized it. Totally legalized it. So Cash Patel has descended upon Skid

LA Noncitizen Voting And Skid Row

SPEAKER_18 30:51

Row. So this is being reported by the FBI Rapid Response. FBI agents descend on Skid Row in massive voter fraud probe after stunning claims of election bribery. And Cash Patel posts, securing our elections is the utmost priority of this FBI. If you mess with our elections, we will find you. That's really good because LA is making it so that all those Skid Row people that they've been paying all this time, it might not even matter what they find.

SPEAKER_15 31:15

Just yesterday, the LA County Council details and a push to allow more people who live in LA to vote, even if they're not citizens. The proposal will now be on the ballot in November. That's according to the LA Times. The paper reports the LA City Council moved forward with it this week. They also pushed through a proposal to give the city council more authority over the LAPD.

SPEAKER_18 31:37

Details more authority over the cops, and oh, by the way, anybody can vote.

SPEAKER_17 31:42

And this is a great opportunity for me to mention my favorite elections dude, Dean Logan. Good job, dude.

SPEAKER_18 31:49

Came from Washington down to California.

SPEAKER_17 31:52

He's got done stealing elections up here. He went to LA.

SPEAKER_18 31:54

He knows all about finding ballots and trunks, doesn't he?

SPEAKER_17 31:57

Yeah.

SPEAKER_18 31:57

Yeah. So Elon Musk rips the city council for formally letting letting non-citizens vote. Elon Musk, they have imported voters to win. It's clearly that's all they they've got here. So, LA, fun. Good luck, boys and girls out there. That's gonna be a rough time. Now, you'd think with all of the stuff that we know about the elections, you would think that we would be able to get 51 senators, considering there's at least 54 Republicans, that would vote for the Save America Act. And you would think those same Republicans would be a little bit hesitant to allow the uh the intelligence agencies to spy on American citizens. But oh no, no, no, no, no. Our senator from Arkansas, Senator Tom Cotton, who was proven to be an absolute neocon, by the way, he had this to say about the Save America Act and FISA.

SAVE Act Versus FISA Spying

SPEAKER_18 32:44

And uh he's real down on the Save America Act, but he's really up on spying on U.S. citizens.

SPEAKER_25 32:49

What kind of shape is that in? I know you said it was regrettable that the Jay Clayton hearing, the new DNI uh candidate was postponed yesterday by the president. You said that was a regrettable thing. Where does all that stand now, Senator?

SPEAKER_03 33:04

Well, Jay Clayton is a patriot and a highly qualified nominee. Uh it wasn't just the Senate that was working fast to confirm him. The FBI and other parts of the Trump administration worked at lightning speed over the weekend to get his background checks, his financial information in order. Um, ultimately, when we do confirm him, I think he'll do a great job at the DNI. In the meantime, I've spoken with Phil Pulte yesterday. He understands that there are some quick wins and important reforms at the DNI that he can undertake when he arrives there and for as long as he serves there. I do think it's really important, though, that we not connect DNI to FISA Section 702. FISA Section 702 is one of the president's most important foreign intelligence collection tools. The Democrats, regrettably, have blocked its reauthorization for as long as Mr. Poulti is at the DNI. I wish the Democrats would allow that reauthorization to go forward, irrespective of what they think of Jay Clayton or Bill Poulty or DNI reforms or anything else.

SPEAKER_25 33:59

I I know you uh we have to go, but just in a word, do you think the SAVE Act is going to pass because the president really wants to see that? And a lot of people out there want to see that.

SPEAKER_03 34:08

Well, I certainly support it, Martha, and I've voted for it. I'd like to see it pass as well. The reality is we don't have 50 votes for it right now, as it's written, much less 60 votes. And also, Mike Lee, who is the sponsor of the SAVE Act, he has said he doesn't want to connect the SAVE Act to FISA because he opposes FISA. So it creates different voting coalitions in the Senate. Whatever the fate of the SAVE Act is in the long term, I think it's urgent that in the short term we reauthorize Section 702 so the president has that vital foreign intelligence tool to keep the nation safe.

SPEAKER_18 34:40

Interesting developments. I love the tug and pull on this one. We need to spy on U.S. citizens, but we can't let all the U.S. citizens vote in the lesson.

SPEAKER_17 34:49

It sounds so retarded.

SPEAKER_18 34:50

It just sounds so ridiculous. I know. Uh it sounds so ridiculous. And it seems, you know, I think Trump is, he's I'm against VISA. I'm against PISA. I only will sign it because the military is desperate to have it. I'm like, just create some other emergency order saying you can spy on terrorists. You know what I mean? Like, why do you need PISA? Uh, anyways, it's expired, but it's still in operation and effect till like March. So it's kind of a false deadline that they've got going on here.

Utah Mail-In Voting Backlash

SPEAKER_18 35:20

Another thing that came up too is Utah is now advancing quickly to become universal mail-in voting. This again, Ron, this just baffles common sense. We have all these problems with mail-in voting. So you see what's happening in California. You see what happened in 2020. You see that the Republican Party at large is completely against mail-in voting. It doesn't make any sense. We want people to show up to vote, to get the sticker. I mean, we'd probably just assume doing purple thumbs like they did in Iraq, you know, just to prove that you voted one time. You can't come back into the voting booth if your thumb is already purple. Yeah. But it seems as though the great state of Utah, this is from Trump's Truth Social, which I want each time and handily, is going to the all mail-in-ballot format of Colorado and the rest that always lead, that always head left. As soon as the move is made, we should stop Utah from doing this. All mail-in-ballots, dishonestly handled, are a big advantage for the Democrats. Those whose only road to victory because of their policies are so insane is cheating. Does the Republican Party have any idea what is happening to it? Step by step, state by state, the Democrats are smiling all the way to the bank. Stop the onslaught by their immediate by either immediately terminating the filibuster and or pass the Save America Act. Utah, allegedly one of the most conservative states in the county. Oh, we're gonna do all the mill and balloting. Why? Why?

SPEAKER_17 36:51

Why? Who convinced you that this was a good idea?

SPEAKER_18 36:55

Idiots. It's let's just use what we learned about COVID. Every nefarious thing that a dystopian, tyrannical, authoritarian leader could do, those seeds have been planted. They've infected you with diseases all the way to something as horrendous as the Tuskegee experiments with giving American syphilis. They have castrated American citizens, sterilized them, they have categorized them, they have hunted them, they have done all kinds of horrible things. They have taken away your cities, your counties, your states, the Trading with the Enemies Act, where they declared the people of the United States enemies of the state. You go on and on and on. And when you see a state like Utah adopting mail-in ballots, it makes no sense. It makes no sense. You don't have to break what's not broken. And if it is broken, like the election system, don't make it worse. This is super obvious that Utah is part of the coalition of whatever deep state actors that want to cheat. Why isn't the Mormon church stepping in on this one? Oh, that's right, because they're an international NGO at this point. And they partnered with the Bill and Hillary Clinton Foundation. Right. They get a lot of money and donate a lot of money through that. It's pretty rough. Why is this happening? Right? If you haven't already, I would call your senator, even if they're a Democrat, and say, I support the Save America Act and I'm your constituent.

unknown 38:33

Right.

SPEAKER_18 38:34

Pony Boy says, let's just secede California from us. Oh, wouldn't that just be an easy solution? But then it opens the door to all kinds of nonsense. Carlit says Cotton sold out a long time ago. Well, yeah. You know, it's funny because Tom Cotton's one of the ones I remember during, I can't remember what it was. He was, let's get the 101st airborne in there. And I'm like, uh posse comatatis. He definitely would be a little authoritarian. Uh Scott Adams always thought that that Tom Cotton had the gravitas to be a president. I look at him and I go, I don't want him to be a president. Who I want to be the president are at a bare minimum truth tellers.

Israel Iran Deal And US Leverage

SPEAKER_18 39:11

So one of the criticisms that the Trump administration has taken is we've is they cosied up to Israel a little too much, right? Obviously, on the left, they have a rabid hate for Israel and they have an alliance with Islam. This is called the Red-Green Alliance. This is where the communists and the Islamists gang up to try to take out the West, and then they'll duke it out at the end. And ultimately, the Muslims are going to beat the communists because that's just how it usually goes. So, anyways, the the criticism, even amongst Republicans, right, we've got the retard right as they're called, the Tucker Carlsons and all these others who've really criticizes Trump for essentially the tail wagging the dog and Trump going into Iran at Israel's Israel's bidding. And as things have shaken out, I don't really think that's the case. In fact, I think that the Trump administration now, literally in the last week, has done more to distance themselves from Israel and release them from the culpability of Israel than any other president ever has before. And I think that this is going to play well for the retard right base, is that they're no longer going to say, well, you just did it for Israel's sake, because I feels like we're probably going to leave Israel out to dry. We've got a couple good clips here. JD Vance is, you know, back from negotiating for Israel. He was quiet for quite a while, and he had a lot to say on this topic. He was being interviewed by the New York Times and he's being asked about Israel.

SPEAKER_28 40:32

Okay. There is another country in the Middle East that thinks of itself as having a very intimate knowledge of the Iranian regime. Yeah. Um, not just the Gulf states. That's Israel. I don't think this deal is popular in Israel right now. I don't think you're an especially popular figure in Israel today. We'll see where things are in six months. And one perception, I think, that people have after watching this war unfold is that there is a certain misalignment, maybe, between the kind of pragmatic American interest that you just described the president having and the more existential sense of the stakes that Israel has. And one key criticism of the Obama deal from people in the Republican Party, people in Israel, elsewhere, was always that it was focused on the nuclear program and wasn't focused on Iranian proxies, their support for terrorism around the Middle East, their support for Hezbollah and Hamas. So I'm just curious: do you think there's a misalignment between the U.S. and Israel? Do you think Israel has incentives to not want this deal to continue? And is there a vision for how you get to a point where Iranian support for Hezbollah isn't sending rockets into Israel on the regular?

SPEAKER_16 41:55

Well, what I'd say here is that it's clear that large segments of the Israeli political system and population are very sensitive about this deal. But I also think that they're picking up on some misinformation about the deal and running with it and sort of panicking about it. And I fundamentally believe this deal will be good for the entire region and for the world. That includes, of course, the Israelis. Now, I think it's important to say that while I do believe that, I do believe that this deal will be good for the entire world. Fundamentally, we're worried about what's in the best interest of the American people. And to the extent that, and I think the president has shown this, where he sees misalignment between the goals of the political system in Israel and the goals of the American people, he's willing to say that we're going to pursue America's interests where there are divergences. So there are certainly going to be disagreements from time to time. I think that's normal. I will say, I don't, I don't know, maybe I've missed this. I don't think BB himself has actually criticized the deal because I think he's maybe a little bit more familiar with the details of what's in it. But yeah, you've seen people in their system, Ben Gavier and Smothrich, who've attacked the deal. And I guess my response to them would be what is your exact proposal? And, you know, you're you're a country of nine million people. You can't just kill your way out of solving every single national security problem you have. Look at what we've accomplished. First of all, Americans have protected a lot of Israeli lives through our missile systems and through our missile programs over the last few months. We have destroyed their nuclear program. We have got the Iranians in a point where they are offering things. Again, whether they'll actually act on them, we'll see. But they're offering things that would have been the stuff of dreams even six months ago. So let us play this negotiation out. Let us see if the Iranian actions actually meet the Iranian words and give a little bit of credit to the United States of America, which I think has been an incredible partner for the Israeli government for a long time.

SPEAKER_28 43:49

In the best case, do you think that this deal changes how Hezbollah works? Oh, absolutely. Absolutely.

SPEAKER_16 43:56

I mean, I I I think that they There is this weird panic almost in the Israeli system that I've picked up on, where they assume that everything that is contemplated that is good for Iran will happen, but that will happen without the Iranians changing any behavior. And I just don't know why anybody would think that's true. That's not how the deal is written. The United States has all the financial leverage. Like the president of the United States or the Secretary of the Treasury have to release all these sanctions. Do they actually think we're going to release sanctions on the Iranian, you know, system if they're still funding a terrorist organization? The answer is of course not. So I I find this whole freakout in Israel a little bit odd because I think that it comes from a place of mistrust. And I think that America has earned the trust of that region of the world. We've done a very good job by that particular country and that particular government. And I think that the idea that we've made a terrible deal is not supported by the facts, but just doesn't make any sense if you consider the broad length of the relationship.

SPEAKER_18 45:04

You know when you have a relationship with someone and they always take, they always take, take, take. I need a favor, I need a favor, I need a favor. And you just always kind of capitulate and go along because you've either got the resources, you've got the time, you're just too kind-hearted. And then one day you're like, hey, this isn't a one-way street. Right?

SPEAKER_17 45:22

Eventually you reach a breaking point.

SPEAKER_18 45:23

It's starting to get a little bit annoying. You're not grateful grateful for our help. You're constantly acting like you're running the show. You're acting, you know what I mean? You cannot kill your way out of every problem.

SPEAKER_17 45:34

Have you seen uh Wow? Wow. There's a guy on Facebook. Have you seen him locally? Uh Cal. Have you seen that guy? Uh-uh. He's he's really hard on the local uh government and the governor. And he's like, man, these guys are taxing us to death, and now this guy is camped out under my porch. We gotta get we gotta I just started laughing so hard. I'm sorry.

SPEAKER_18 45:58

Anyways, that's that Robin Del Robin, welcome, Robin Delane, welcome, howdy. Um, in the chats. So it is like that relationship where you've got that moocher, that taker, and eventually you're just like, dude, no, it's not like show a little gratitude. Like, at least they say thank you, you've imposed on me so much. So you can tell JD Vance is sitting there like, man, and to say, Israel, you can't just kill your way out of every problem. Oh that that reveals something about their method and their process that's quite stunning. And Donald Trump said a couple other things that are pretty incendiary too in that regard. Here's Chris Murphy. He was on with CNN and he's talking about how this deal with Iran, which by the way, nobody knows what it is because the text is still sealed till it's all signed out officially. And he's acting like, we lost, we lost, we didn't get anything we want.

SPEAKER_05 46:47

I mean, this is an insane deal. And well, there might be confusion over when it was signed or executed. There's not a lot of confusion about what the deal is. Yep, it's a multi-billion dollar payoff to Iran in exchange for nothing, right? Iran says, as you pointed out, they're not gonna get a nuclear weapon. They already made that concession. They're reopening the strait. It was open before the war. They are agreeing to sit down to nuclear talks. They were willing to sit down to nuclear talks before the war began. So the agreement is basically just we lift oil sanctions and Iran does nothing. That's it. That's a humiliation. Now, I'm somebody that wants this war to end, basically on any terms, but uh, this is just proof positive that the war got America nothing. Iran won, Trump surrendered, and that's essentially what this deal represents.

SPEAKER_18 47:37

Didn't we get nothing? Because China and Japan are all blowing oil from us. Iran has been exposed as a bad actor who's going to attack their neighbors. They do, in fact, not have the ability to make a nuclear weapon anytime soon.

SPEAKER_17 47:48

I don't know if I'd call him a liar, but I didn't hear any truth coming out of his face.

SPEAKER_18 47:52

We're paying them, we're not paying them anything. That's another thing that's been made clear. Unlike the Obama administration, as J.D. Vance explained, who did try to pay their way out of this.

SPEAKER_16 48:01

First of all, the two big differences are not even in the substance of the deal itself, but something I said earlier are number one, the Gulf Coast Coalition loves this deal because they think that it makes Iran weaker. They hated the Obama deal because they thought that it made Iran stronger. They know more about this and they have more to lose than anybody, including the United States of America. So I trust their judgment. The second thing is where the deal came from. You have to remember in 2015, Iran had built a sophisticated nuclear weapons program with a nuclear weapons stockpile. So the perspective that we came at as the United States was you already have a really nice nuclear program, we're going to bribe you with American money in order to stop it. Our perspective and where we're coming at it is we already destroyed your nuclear program. And so if you promise and show verifiable pathways to not rebuild it, then we're willing to give you some sanctions, relief, and things like that. So it's a fundamentally different perspective. Now, there are all these substantive differences as well. The Obama nuclear deal allowed enrichment. Ours will not. The Obama deal allowed the accumulation of stockpiled weapons grade material. Ours is actually leading to the destruction of that stockpile of enriched material. So there are many differences. The Obama deal gave them over a billion dollars of American money. The this deal gives them zero dollars of American money. So a lot of substantive differences, but I think the most important differences are where we're coming at it from a position of strength and the fact that our Gulf Coast partners love this deal.

SPEAKER_18 49:35

So very different deal than what Obama did. Very different deal. And it's being received differently, right? Obama's deal happened, and I think if I'm not mistaken, oil prices went up. Could have been for other policy reasons, right? But there the deals are very different. J.D. Vance goes on to explain in that same um in that same same inter press conference, exactly. He goes on to explain the complication between Israel and Lebanon and how it just didn't help at all. That they every time they were on the verge of peace, boom, a bomb would go off.

SPEAKER_16 50:08

He does not withdraw from Israel. No one could withdraw from another country the right of self-defense. Israel has the right to defend itself, but fundamentally the the the Israelis, just like everybody else, have to respect this peace process that is fundamentally good for them and good for the entire region. What the president has grown frustrated sometimes is that we seem to be right on the cusp of a major breakthrough in the agreement, and then all of a sudden there's a major explosion that goes off in a civilian population center in Beirut, and a lot of people who have nothing to do with Hezbollah lose their lives. That's not acceptable.

SPEAKER_18 50:39

That's the sort of thing that we've actually just accused Israel of war crimes.

SPEAKER_16 50:55

Chosen people, they're the chosen people. We do not want Hezbollah attacking Israel, but in order to ensure that that happens, we have got to actually build the kind of regional framework that can cut off the money to Hezbollah, cut off Iranian support for Hezbollah, and also ensure that Lebanon's terrible territorial sovereignty is respected by by all parties. And the the difference between the two agreements. So, first of all, the two big differences are not even in the Okay.

SPEAKER_18 51:35

So that's the clip we heard before was where he followed up with that. That is a stunning admission there. Every time we were on the verge of peace, the bomb would go off, and innocent is Muslims in Lebanon would die.

SPEAKER_17 51:47

And from the other clip, quit killing people, you quit killing your way out of this.

SPEAKER_18 51:51

You can't kill your way out of every problem you have. Like, dude, dude. Okay.

SPEAKER_17 51:58

Hey, BB.

SPEAKER_18 51:59

I had a I had a cellmate in prison.

SPEAKER_17 52:02

Yeah.

SPEAKER_18 52:02

Okay. And he was anti-Semitic. It's like, I don't, I don't know, man. He'd spent like five hours a day reading the Bible, and he was very anti-Semitic. And he had this book called The Synagogue of Satan. And it was about the Jews and the Rothschilds and kind of like every every imaginable trope you could imagine. And he was giving me so much crap. And I'm I would get so mad because I'm like, listen, like, I'll go over there and talk to my Al-Qaeda guy. I'll go talk to an actual Al-Qaeda member and the other Muslim guy that are up here. And I will defend Israel from them and I will criticize Islam right to their faces. You know what I mean? And we had really good discussions. I'd come over here and he would attack Israel. And I'm like having to defend Israel. I'm like, I hate the fact that I have to defend Israel. But some of the stuff you guys say is absolutely insane. And I would concede the fact they're horrible fighters, they're vicious, they're vindictive, like all this stuff. But I'm like, they're not the boogeyman around every corner.

SPEAKER_17 53:00

You know, really good at counting numbers.

SPEAKER_18 53:03

But now I'm sitting here listening to JD Vance, and we're going to hear from Donald Trump. And I'm like, maybe they are all that. Maybe they are bad. I'm just kidding. I don't think that as a whole, but seriously, like, you can't kill your way out of this.

SPEAKER_16 53:15

He's saying something to somebody else that he's not saying to me. What I will say, and this does bother me, is that you have seen people within BB's cabinet who have come out and attacked the deal and in some ways very personally attacked the president of the United States. And I guess my message to them would be twofold. Number one, Donald J. Trump is the only head of state in the entire world who is sympathetic to the nation of Israel at this moment in time. And he happens to be the head of state of the world.

SPEAKER_18 53:45

Listen to that. Yeah. He's the only head of state in the entire world that's even sympathetic to your cause. If we abandon you, you little ingrates, you're going to be left to the wolves. Yeah. Because no one's going to come to your fence defense. Why? Because your massad tactics. Go listen to John Kirk Kirkhoff talk about Kira Kirikov. Kirkhoff talk about Israeli intelligence officers. Go look at like go look at Thomas Massey's stuff about APAC. This is a problem, right?

SPEAKER_16 54:14

World superpower. If I was in the cabinet of the Israeli government, I might not be attacking the only powerful ally that I have anywhere left in the entire world. And the second message I would get to some of those cabinet members, BB, to his credit, has not gone down this path. But to some of these cabinet members in Israel who are attacking the president of the United States, the other thing that I would say is that over the last three months, two-thirds of the defensive weapons that have protected your homeland have been built by American hands and paid for by American tax dollars. The problem for Israel is not Donald J. Trump. And anybody in Israel who thinks their biggest problem is the president of the United States needs to wake up and smell the reality of the situation that country is in.

SPEAKER_18 55:02

Thank you all. I think Mark Levine needs to take a big dose of that as well. Ah, we should be, we should be fighting all of Israel's battles. Because otherwise, where would we send our kids to die? Right? Here's Donald Trump being interviewed by Axios.

SPEAKER_09 55:16

If it weren't for Donald Trump, Israel would have been eviscerated. If it weren't for Donald Trump and Bibi Netanyahu, who worked well with me, but he will tell you, we're the ones with the guns, we're the ones with the whole deal, we're the ones with the B-2 bombers, etc. If it weren't for Donald Trump, Israel would have been eviscerated. It's good, but we have to keep him a little bit uh sane.

SPEAKER_08 55:51

Are you gonna be able to control Israel?

SPEAKER_18 55:54

We have to keep him a little bit sane.

SPEAKER_08 55:56

From attacking Lebanon. Yeah. Well, maybe I mean I wonder.

SPEAKER_09 56:01

Uh they have a lot of respect for me. And they do as I say.

SPEAKER_18 56:11

They have a lot of respect for me and they do what I say. Oh man, it's just totally crazy.

Ukraine Funding And Security Guarantees

SPEAKER_18 56:18

So on another war front, we've got the Ukraine-Russia conflict that's still going on. Marco Rubio was asked, and this has been a Democrat trope for a long time, or Democrat desire, why don't you offer security guarantees, security guarantees for Ukraine? And Marco Rubio just shut that down.

SPEAKER_06 56:32

Did the US tell Zelensky that security guarantees depend on withdrawal from Bombasa? That's a lie. And I saw him say that, and it's unfortunate he would say that because he knows that's not true, and that's not what he was told. What he was told is the obvious security guarantees are not going to kick in until there's an end to a war. Because otherwise, you're in you're getting yourself involved in the war. Okay, what is a security guarantee? It is troops that are willing to step in and secure. If you put that in place now, that means you're injecting yourself in the war. What he was told very clearly, and he should have understood it, is that the security guarantees come only after there is an end to the war. That was not attached to unless he gives up territory. I don't know why he says these things. They're just not true. We've told the Ukrainian side what the Russians are insisting on. We're not advocating for it. We've explained it to them. It's their choice to make. It's not for us to make for them. We've never told them they have to take it or leave it. The role we have played is to try to figure out what both sides want and see if we can bridge the middle ground. The decision ultimately is up to Ukraine. If they don't want to make, if they don't want to make certain decisions or certain concessions, then the war keeps going.

SPEAKER_18 57:38

I'll tell you, in the last administration, Zelensky got Harold as a hero. He came in and gave a speech in the house, and everywhere, you know, go he goes up to Pennsylvania and he's signing bombs with Josh Shapiro. And now it's like, he lied, he's lying. We're not doing security guarantees. Oh, and by the way, we're not selling them weapons either. Europe has to buy them, and if they want to give them to Ukraine, they're free to do that. But we are not giving them weapons anymore. J.D. Vance also had this to say because again, this whole theme, everything that's going on in the zeitgeist of the Democrats, especially, is this idea that America is bad. And we're gonna get to this when we get to the private chat, the private part of the show today. We're gonna go over to the Barack Obama little uh museum library thing that he built. They had their grand opening in Chicago. Wow. But you're gonna see there, they hate America. We saw this in the polling with CNN, they hate America, and so there becomes it's very easy to weaponize the virtue of someone who is self-hating, right? Well, you guys say you're a great Christian nation and you help your neighbor. So give us money, give us aid, help the illegal immigrant, let the illegal immigrants vote, right? Fill your city councils with people that hardly even speak English, like up in Michigan. And J.D. Vance was asked about this when it came to Ukraine. He's like, listen, somebody approached him, some random Ukrainian American, put his finger in his face and said, You have to defend my country, Ukraine. And JD Vance, little old boy from Kentucky, who was raised in Ohio, who saw the other side of the tracks, was raised in a low-income household with a mother who was addicted to drugs, mostly raised by his grandmother. These were rough and tumble people. Okay. And when I see him, he's a polished man. He went joined the Marine Corps, he ended up going to Ohio State, then he went to Yale. He's very polished, but he hasn't lost who he is as an American.

SPEAKER_16 59:28

I had somebody who came up to me, and I'm sure a great person, like a wonderful person. It was a Ukrainian American in Cleveland, Ohio. I was campaigning for the Senate. There are a lot of Ukrainian Americans in Cleveland, Ohio. And this person got really agitated at me because I was saying we should stop funding the Ukraine war. Okay. And I still believe that, obviously. And it's one of the things I'm proudest that we've done as an administration is we've told Europe that if you want to buy weapons, you can, but the United States is not buying weapons and sending them to Ukraine anymore. We're just out of that business. So very good thing. But but these Ukrainian American, again, a kind person. They probably didn't vote for me after this conversation, but he was kind of sticking his finger in my face saying, you need to support my country. You need to support my country. And I said, sir, with all due respect, if you're an American, your country is the United States of America, not a place that you immigrated from, whenever that was. And it occurred to me, and I know this is the last question, I'll try to be quick here, but it occurred to me that my father-in-law, who came from India, who moved to the United States, who got an education, and became an American citizen, that never once, never once in my life has he ever said, you have to do this or you should do this because it's in the best interest of the country that I came from. And I think that attitude, to the extent that attitude dominates among the new generation of Americans, that makes Americans feel welcoming towards people because everybody, again, whether your family's been here for 300 years or one second, to be an American means to look out for Americans first. And that's the perspective we have to take to our immigration policy.

unknown 1:01:06

Thank you.

SPEAKER_14 1:01:07

Thank you.

SPEAKER_18 1:01:10

It seems so obvious. It seems so obvious. Why did you immigrate here? Oh, because the conditions weren't as good where I was at. Okay, well, show a little gratitude.

SPEAKER_14 1:01:20

Yeah.

SPEAKER_18 1:01:21

Show a little gratitude. And I think that's how a lot of Americans feel. And we have a lot of people that participate in the 1776 live community that are foreigners. I just found out someone that I talk to all the time is Canadian. Bless or not.

SPEAKER_17 1:01:34

You know what I feel like is the best way to um you know meld into America? How's that? Learn English.

SPEAKER_19 1:01:44

Step one. Step one.

SPEAKER_17 1:01:46

Step one.

SPEAKER_18 1:01:47

Step one. You know, I became very I became very uh embedded in the bridge in the Brazilian culture when I was down there. And what really turned was when I learned the language, because then I realized there wasn't anything different about these Brazilians. I had to I had to learn the language to really understand that. But anyways, that's a that's a big thing. Uh people who immigrate here in this current generation are not encouraged to assimilate, and they're not encouraged to love this country and the opportunities she provides.

SPEAKER_17 1:02:15

Well, I'm gonna provide some encouragement. Learn English, assimilate, be American. I mean, grab a hot dog and you know, the shoot off of firework on 4th of July. Come on.

SPEAKER_18 1:02:26

And the 4th of July is for celebrating America's founding, not just for friends and family. Yeah.

SPEAKER_17 1:02:31

That's right.

SPEAKER_18 1:02:31

So back to we started the show with Stephen A.

Stephen A Smith On Smears

SPEAKER_18 1:02:34

Smith saying, Democrats want just any votes from anybody, and we see that happening in LA. But he also took a phone call on his show with someone who was saying Donald Trump is dumb. And Stephen A. Smith came to Donald Trump's defense.

SPEAKER_04 1:02:44

Speaking of, you know, low IQ, I mean, a lot of people think Donald Trump uh is kind of low IQ and stupid. As a matter of fact, his former uh Secretary of State uh uh Rex Tillerson called him an F moron.

SPEAKER_24 1:03:02

Well, I'm not I'm not I'm not gonna get caught up in that because I've seen, first of all, I used to talk to him for years before he was ever running for president. Folks didn't call it stupid then. When he was on Oprah Winfrey show and he was friends with Whoopi Goldberg and others, people weren't calling him dumb then. A matter of fact, people was asking him if he if he would run for if he would ever run for office because they thought he was smart and they thought he was right, because in all likelihood he probably was. At the end of the day, he's older now, he's 80 years of age, he might have lost his fastball, he might have lost his step. We don't have to get into all of that. That feeds right into their hands, Joe. You don't have to do that because they can easily debunk that you know with plausible deniabilities. We spend too much energy fighting feudal fights. Let's focus on substantive stuff that we can definitively prove that will work to an advantage of anybody who is opposite him as opposed to engaging in such frivolous nonsense.

SPEAKER_18 1:04:06

That is some good political sense. Right? It is easy to get cut stuck in the bud, and that's what the Democrats have done. They've had to defend the it the indefendable. Trump's a racist because he said uh uh the Nazis are fine people. Oh, I played the tape. I don't think that's what he said. In fact, he just said they should be condemned totally. No, nope, that's the whole point of my campaign, says Joe Biden, right? Stupid, futile. Find something else that's real, right? There are scandals that are happening. Listen, what's going on down in Venezuela? We don't love it. Uh, the American oil companies are just carving that place up. I don't know. Maybe it's good in our long-term interest, maybe not. Doesn't feel really great to me if I was a Venezuelan citizen, wouldn't really love that, right? I wouldn't like a deal where we have peace with Iran and then suddenly Iran's in charge of some big gold mine in the middle of Colorado. You know what I mean? I don't really love that. There are things that you could go after these guys. I think the reason the Democrats don't go after them for substantive stuff is one, they have not much that's substantive, and what they could go after Trump for, they're doing themselves andor are involved.

SPEAKER_17 1:05:10

And profiting off of it.

SPEAKER_18 1:05:11

And profiting off it, exactly. Now, there's there's talk about Donald Trump possibly losing all of his popularity like Joe Biden did. There was a clear point in time when Joe Biden, his popularity went way down, okay, and it was the withdrawal from Afghanistan. Because remember, whether you're Republican or Democrat, there were a lot of Democrat soldiers who went and spent time overseas in Afghanistan and lost friends and had their lives also irreparably altered, just to walk away from Afghanistan in absolute shame, leave the Taliban in charge, leave all of our equipment there. It was a bad day. And Joe Biden went down in the polls after that. Contrast that with our withdrawal from Iran, which by the way only ended up being a couple months long as opposed to 20 years. And Donald Trump probably isn't going to lose any popularity over this.

Gas Prices Oil Reserves And Inflation

SPEAKER_18 1:06:00

In fact, his popularity is probably going to go up.

SPEAKER_10 1:06:02

Gas prices are now below $4 a gallon here. What are the prediction markets saying they will be in the future? Yeah, if he's not going to be the next Joe Biden, this is the helpful sign for him, right? Chance gas prices this year rise above $5 a gallon. You know, you go back about a month ago, it was a 74% chance according to the cash predicament to prediction markets. Now it's just a 22% chance. This is the type of stuff that Donald Trump needs to avoid being a new Joe Biden.

SPEAKER_18 1:06:26

New Joe Biden, right? That's listen, Trump said it. Prices are going to go down. Seems super obvious to everybody, but the betting markets had a 74% chance that prices would go up. And now they're not. Oh, how quickly things can change. Oh, how quickly things can change. Now, I listened to a nice little breakdown yesterday from a Bitcoin podcast that was talking about how essentially the end to this Iran ward is perfectly timed because the U.S. strategic oil reserve, petroleum reserve, is at the lowest it's ever been since like 1983. So no doubt about it. This administration has been dumping our oil into the market to try to replace the supply. I'm sure a lot of that oil went to Japan and other places that are buying it, but nonetheless, we're at like 80 days to empty. 80 days to empty, and prices will shoot up because we won't be able to kick in our reserves. And so that is one of the reasons why this peace deal may have happened right now, and Trump is turning on Israel because he's like, listen, we have a hard wall that we're going to run up against. That once we hit that wall, it's going to be very difficult to come back from. So we've got to get the oil flowing again, got to get our reserves filled back up.

SPEAKER_17 1:07:31

Yeah, it's been my thought that this memorandum of understanding is just that. It is a kick the can down the road, 60 days, and then you know, a little bit of a reset, and then we'll fight and argue some more.

SPEAKER_18 1:07:44

Possibly. And of course, yesterday the Fed signaled that hey, things aren't as good because we have to keep the interest rates the same, which given the political climate, that's the same as raising rates because we all expected them to go down. So keeping them the same is signaling, yeah, we have inflation coming up. And so this is a huge problem. There was a billionaire that did an interview that kind of went unnoticed, but he was talking about how we cannot get out of the debt, that you can't just you can't just pay off $40 trillion. So, from a macroeconomic standpoint, the only way to deal with that debt is to print it away. You've got to run inflation. Now, long term, this is an empire killer. This will kill, this will destroy our civilization as we know it, and we would have to reset. It would be a major, major problem for the United States. And so the smart people are looking into the future. People like us are looking into the future and they're going, where's the off-ramp to this? This is Cynthia Loomis, and she's talking about how Bitcoin is an off-ramp to this. Our national debt, our involvement with oil, this is all tied to the money supply. And the signals in the market right now is that they're going to print. They're going to have to now inflate away out of this debt. Now, Donald Trump has done a good job of setting the stage to make sure that the dollar is the tallest midget in the room, okay? To make sure the dollar is the best thing that's there. He's got tons of investment coming into the United States. He's got the tariff program going on. He's unleashed our oil supplies, right? He's done a lot of good things to try to kick the can down the road. But at the end of the day, that's all he's done is kick the can down of the road. The amount of growth that we would need to get out of the national debt approaches Elon Musk optimism. Everybody needs a robot. There needs to be, you know, I mean, it approaches an optimism that just isn't reality.

SPEAKER_17 1:09:24

It's going to take Jetson is real.

SPEAKER_18 1:09:26

It's going to take 20, 30, 40 years at a controlled trajectory in order to inflate out of this slowly and try to grow out of it, right? That's probably too long. And there's probably going to be some administration in the near future that's going to screw it up. Like the last six or seven administrators.

SPEAKER_17 1:09:44

Yeah, you'll never make it five years without somebody messing it up.

SPEAKER_18 1:09:47

Without somebody messing up another crisis that needs another trillion dollar bill. So Cynthia Loomis is explaining that there is an off-ramp, even for the US economy.

Bitcoin Strategic Reserve Pitch

SPEAKER_02 1:09:59

What do you envision for that?

SPEAKER_23 1:10:01

Well, what I proposed is a uh Bitcoin strategic reserve. Because if we uh bought or uh acquired and then held on to Bitcoin for a period of years, designed scarcity, and then we could grow over time due to coin for a period of years. Uh it would grow over time due to its designed scarcity, and then we could use that uh to backfill uh some of the national debt that we are building up. In fact, if we would hold uh um one fifth of the world's Bitcoin for 20 years, uh, we could cut our national debt uh by either one one-third or one-half, depending on how Bitcoin grows. So I see it as an important backstop to have, but in addition to that, it helps us shore up the US dollar as the world reserve currency. So it is a store of value uh that I think is an important asset the US should hold. We know that states are holding it. We know that China and other governments around the world are holding it because they understand its strategic value.

SPEAKER_18 1:11:26

Ah, and if you don't understand its strategic value, you're missing the boat. They're gonna use Bitcoin to backstop the dollar because there's there's no utility in the gold now.

SPEAKER_17 1:11:35

And so the thing I noticed was that she said that they want to own one-fifth of all Bitcoin. I was like, how are you gonna do that?

SPEAKER_18 1:11:45

A million Bitcoin, yeah, and they have like 360,000 Bitcoin or something like that right now, right? But uh a Bitcoin strategic reserve. I get this pushback quite frequently, like, you know, oh, isn't Bitcoin just like you know, the control grid? And like Bitcoin and crypto are different, like we can't emphasize this enough. We don't have an Ethereum reserve or an XRP reserve, those are cool software programs, and they have some utility and they're gonna make banking more efficient and faster. But yes, control grid on steroids. Bitcoin is native internet money, it's internet gold, it can't be replicated. There's no board, it's design scarcity. What she just said there is incredibly important. Look at the picture on the road here. Bitcoin is the future, right? It's the way out. Our government is planning to use Bitcoin to offset the national debt and make sure the dollar stays the tallest midget in the room. Okay. Don't be the sucker that's holding Bitcoin as they inf as all the world currencies have to inflate their problems away. Because the whole world has this problem. Be on the upside of this, right? If you want to bet against the trend, fiat has an expiration date. It can't go on forever, okay? It can't. Bitcoin is real, so take advantage of it. It is the off-ramp. And it also, as Kevin Warsh said, will hold policymakers accountable. Why do policymakers need to be held to be held accountable? Because we would never have reached the level of ridiculous and even fraudulent criminal spending if we had to spend hard money. If every time you gave a welfare payment, you were giving gold, we would be a lot more strategic and careful about who we give welfare to. I love it when they hiccups on the show. We'd be a lot more careful with who we give social services to. And in the fiat system, we just don't do that. Up in Massachusetts, before we get to this story, Ron, let's do uh one of those there.

SPEAKER_19 1:13:47

Rumble wallet looks good. I'm really trying to get my hiccups to settle down this way. There we go.

SPEAKER_17 1:13:56

There we go. Okay, take a break, homie.

Rumble Wallet And Crypto Basics

SPEAKER_17 1:14:00

We hear a lot about crypto, but here's the part most people miss. Crypto was created for you, so you could actually own and control your money. After the 2008 financial crisis, Bitcoin was designed as an alternative to banks. So instead of a bank holding your money, delaying transfers, or limiting access, you're in control. And if you've ever had to wait for a transfer to clear, you felt that problem. Now fast forward to today. Everyone's heard of crypto, but getting started still feels complicated. That's exactly why I use Rumble Wallet. It takes all that complexity, it makes it simple. Choose what you want Bitcoin, dollar back, stable coins, or even digital backed gold. Or oh, digital gold backed by real gold. No complicated setup. It connects you with Moonpay, so you can use your credit card, debit card, or bank and be up and running in minutes. Once you're set up, you can even support your favorite Rumble creators like me directly. So do it now. Scan the QR code or click the link in the description and download the Rumble wallet. From there, you can set up your wallet, tap buy, and you're in the game. In just a few minutes, you can go from hearing about crypto to actually owning some. Nice. Nice.

SPEAKER_18 1:15:02

Okay, so if we were having to spend hard money, gold or silver, to pay social welfare benefits, we would be a lot more careful about who we pay them to. But in the fiat system, they can just print. As they say in Bitcoin, never work for something someone else can print. And that's what happens to welfare recipients. Now, thank goodness to JD Vance and the fraud task force, because they're finding all kinds of fraud around

Welfare Fraud And Stolen Identities

SPEAKER_18 1:15:22

the country. Some of this is almost too big to believe. And in Massachusetts, they had 15 people arrested. And it turns out 11 of the 15 people in this massive fraud scheme are were illegal immigrants.

SPEAKER_20 1:15:35

Today's charges allege fraudulent conduct targeting the limited money set aside to help the most needy and the most vulnerable among us. Alarmingly, 11 of the 15 charged defendants are suspected illegal aliens, some of whom assumed stolen identities to steal these taxpayer-funded benefits and avoid detection.

SPEAKER_00 1:16:02

Investigators say they are still working to determine the true identities of the suspects.

SPEAKER_18 1:16:14

Man, it wouldn't it be great if this was all on the ledger and you could go see where that money went.

SPEAKER_17 1:16:19

Like on the blockchain?

SPEAKER_18 1:16:20

Yeah, on the blockchain. Wouldn't it be great if we had an incentive to not just throw our money around? That would be awesome.

Filibuster Fight And Forcing Votes

SPEAKER_18 1:16:27

You know, I bet we could fix some of those problems if we finally got rid of the filibuster. You know? Trump posted, anybody who doesn't want to terminate the filibuster is a fool, all caps. A very stupid one at that. The Democrats will end it within minutes of taking office and then rapidly proceed to destroy our country, adding two radical left states for Democrat senators, many congresswomen and men, the or congressmen and women, their dream of 21 Supreme Court justices, not just 13, an unlucky number, an impossible to beat number of electoral college votes. That's the ballgame, folks. Popular vote landslides and so much else. The Republican Party will never win another election. I will, sadly, be the last Republican president. Senate Majority Leader John Thune and the Republican Senate must not let this carnage happen. They will go down on the wrong side of history, as will all Republicans who just stood by and watched. The Republican Party is at stake, isn't at stake. Our country is. Terminate the filibuster and act immediately. Approve the Save America Act. God bless the USA, Donald J. Trump. Over and over and over again, all of this stuff ends up coming back to the elections. If you fix the elections, you can fix the country. We can flush out a lot of this fraud and corruption. J.D. Vance made a very articulate argument as to why we should get rid of the filibuster.

SPEAKER_22 1:17:44

Thank you, Mr. Vice President. Leader Fun said it's unrealistic to get the Save America Act passed by attaching it to FISA, which is what the president's looking for. Do you believe this is possible?

SPEAKER_16 1:17:54

Right. Why don't we try? Why don't we try and at least force people to vote against it? One of the things that you know sometimes frustrates me about the legislative process is that people will go into it saying this isn't possible, therefore we're not even going to try. Well, let's actually see. Let's try it. And if it's not possible, then let the people put their name on it. This is also good for the American people. How many American senators know that the American people love the Save America Act because they believe in voter ID? But how many of those same senators don't want to vote for it because they know that the radical elements within their own party would punish them for it? Let people go on the record and actually answer to the American people, which is why I think we should do exactly as the president said.

SPEAKER_18 1:18:40

They're hiding behind the process, right? Yes. Hiding behind the process. Let's try.

Supreme Court Boosts Gun Rights

SPEAKER_18 1:18:45

Okay. Last thing today, and this is excellent news. We have some huge Supreme Court decisions that we're waiting for. And we did get one of them yesterday. And in my opinion, this is a wonderful thing. So if you remember back, Hunter Biden was convicted of a gun charge. And he was convicted of a gun charge because when he filled out his application for a gun, he put that he wasn't addicted to any substances. Now we know that Hunter Biden had been in and out of rehab. We have some pretty convincing evidence that he's smoking crack cocaine, but he was also a habitual marijuana user. And there was another case that came up that was a gentleman down in Texas that with his home, he they had a warrant to come and search his home and blah, blah, blah. It ended up, I don't think he ended up being prosecuted for whatever they initially came to his house for, which again, this is one of those things where you go, Oh my goodness, the system is so screwed up. So they got a warrant that never went anywhere. But when they came to interview him and and he spoke candidly, told him about where his guns were in the house and everything, like totally cooperated with the search and investigation. And he and he was asked by the FBI when his house was raided if he used any drugs. And he said that he smoked marijuana. So he gets tagged now as a habitual marijuana user. Now it's legal where he's at to do that. Well, they came back afterwards with a whole new charge, like the first warrant kind of dismissed. New charge gun possession while uh using uh substances or whatever, right? So they charged him with that. He ultimately was convicted, and he's gone through the appeals process and it came to the Supreme Court. We got a decision back from the Supreme Court on this one. And this is a boon for gun owners, in my opinion, everywhere.

SPEAKER_21 1:20:24

It's one of the gun cases. And it was whether or not you could go after someone who you discovered was a habitual drug user, in this case marijuana, and that disqualified them from owning or possessing a gun. The court has got a unanimous opinion, essentially. There are all kinds of factions and concurrences, but nobody's dissenting here, saying that the prosecution of this individual or going after this individual based on his drug usage and gun ownership violates the Second Amendment. Now, it may be very fact-specific to this particular case, but that is the first of the gun cases. There's another one we're waiting on as well. So we may often the case the court will pair up decisions. So we may get the other gun case we're dealing with, which with has to deal with concealed carry, specifically in Hawaii. But we're waiting on birthright citizenship. We're waiting on when the count for ballots has to end after election day. Um, we're waiting on trans sports and whether you can say that biologically born males can't be in girls' sports at the collegiate and high school level. So those opinions are still coming in right now, but that first gun case is the one and it's on our watch list. So 19 cases to go, guys.

SPEAKER_18 1:21:31

So that is a good thing. If you are a legal user of marijuana, your gun rights are not amended. That is, in my opinion, that's a good thing. If you're an otherwise law-abiding citizen, good to

Wrap Up Links And Private Chat

SPEAKER_18 1:21:44

go. All right, guys, we're gonna jump over into the private chat. Don't forget, those of you that listen to the streaming show and you're not a rumble premium member. If you download the audio, you can you can get the private, the private part of this. So please do that. And you know, feel free to go in and download all 300 plus episodes. It really helps our stats on the uh on the audio side. So we look forward to that. All right, guys, don't forget to visit leftbehindwithout.com, 1776 live.us. We've got all kinds of events coming up, and with that, we'll talk to some of you on Monday, the rest of you right now. I always wait that extra second just for that thing to go away.

Obama Center Land Talk And Debt

SPEAKER_18 1:22:22

Okay, we're going to be talking about Barack Obama over at his uh what is his library, the Obama Library in Chicago. Monstrosity of a building, really is. It's like kind of wow. Um, anyways, funny little scene out of that. So this is Barack Obama and Joe Biden walking off stage, and just like the good old days, they left Joe Biden stammering and stuttering. Oh, it's the good old thing. The gang is back together. Now, the interesting thing, we talked about how the Democrat Party just is American hating. They just hate America. This was a United States president at the opening of his museum, his library, and this is the Obama Presidential Center. Okay. And they opened up the thing with a acknowledgement that it was built on stolen.

SPEAKER_01 1:23:59

We'd also like to take a moment to recognize the original inhabitants of the land upon which we are gathered today.

SPEAKER_14 1:24:05

Oh my goodness.

SPEAKER_01 1:24:06

We honor the Anishinabe, the Council of Three Fires, the Ojibwe, the Odawa, and the Pottawanami nations.

SPEAKER_18 1:24:17

We're on your stolen land. What are you going to do about it? Oh my goodness. Now, one of the criticisms of Donald Trump has always been, right? Well, he doesn't pay his contractors. This is like the original thing they had on him in 2015. Well, he doesn't pay his contractors on his buildings. So it's kind of an interesting irony that Obama suffers from the same problem. Listen to this man, he's one of the contractors on this building.

SPEAKER_27 1:24:40

Now, why are they not getting paid? And what sense is accelerating Juneteenth if our black contractors are not getting any money? Was that it? Nope. My name is Omar Sharif, president of the African American Contract Association. I've been in business since 1989. I've never seen this happen in since I've been in business. Even when I work with Chicago Urbanly, so many of our black contractors are complained about they have not got their money. But the other side of it, a lot of the black community and the newspapers do not know that these people have not been paid. Some of the people have put their mortgages up, they're going to lose their bonding, uh, their rate in their bonding uh company. They're going to lose their relationship with their supplier as well as their banker may want to bring in their note. So they're afraid to talk about these things, but they tell me in privacy that these things are taking place with them. And they're scared to death about talking about it. Some of them, someone will hang up the phone on you, just say, I don't want to talk about that and buy. Yeah, we met with them on several terms, and but that's when they told us they had to stop conversation about it because they all signed a non-disclosure. And we're that we're that bridge over troubled water for them. Not only are they going to be at financial risk, they are going to not be able to work on other major projects that we try to place our contractors on. And some of our biggest contractors are being hurt and hampered by this matter. Some of our contractors are already in bankruptcy. That's what they're saying. That if it wasn't the fact that they worked on this Obama project, they would not be under this type of problem filing bankruptcy for protection. So all we ask them to do is to pay them their money, work out the deal so that they can be happy of the place being opened up and they can see some relief. That's a bad signal to put out the fact that seven to eight to maybe ten of our contractors in our community are going to be eliminated from doing business because of the debt that they incurred on this particular project. And they're leaving those contracts, deserting them.

SPEAKER_18 1:26:51

Which is funny because that was exactly Barack Obama's whole thing. Charge up the bill and leave the people to pay.

SPEAKER_17 1:27:15

How much does that ugly hunk of concrete cost?

SPEAKER_18 1:27:18

It's like 800 billion or anything.

SPEAKER_17 1:27:21

How do we afford something like that?

unknown 1:27:23

8 billion.

SPEAKER_18 1:27:32

What they paint on you, they themselves do. Yeah. That is exactly the story there. They criticize Donald Trump ad nauseam about, you know, not paying some contractor in 1992. You've got Barack Obama bankrupting multiple large contractors in Chicago that are minority owned. Which is really sad because he cares more about the foreign illegal immigrant than he cares about the American black man.

SPEAKER_07 1:27:56

Businesses that are finding new ways to make housing. Affordable and those ordinary people in the Twin Cities who break frigid temperatures, risk their own safety, standing shoulder to shoulder to look out for their neighbors and sometimes look out for strangers because they knew that was the right thing to do. I've seen it.

SPEAKER_18 1:28:22

What else is the right thing to do? Pay your contractors. That's really rich considering they just indicted people in Minnesota for, you know, rabble rousing, which we played yesterday. I got a message from one of our listeners saying, you know, what a what a mental tug-of-war that we had on the show yesterday. Yeah, it is a tug-of-war.

Distrust Of Power And Double Standards

SPEAKER_18 1:28:44

Right? I mean, you've got a government that will literally create a virus, it gets released, completely changes the trajectory of the United States, and they're just like right. And and uh all the stuff that happened with George Floyd, I mean the whole thing, these guys are just not uh in your best interest. So I don't trust them, even when they're going after Antifa. I don't trust that stuff. I saw what they did to us. I I haven't seen thousands of FBI people getting removed. Right now, the the idea that is put out by Cash Patel and and Todd Blanche is that we have real cases and there's real evidence. Okay. I mean, we all kind of have to let the process pay out, but I have a huge amount of sympathy for people that get caught up in this dragnet. I've said it many times, started saying it five years ago. I don't care if the boot is coming from the right or the left, it's still a boot on my neck. And I'm afraid we haven't defanged our government quite yet. Another thing, too. Here's Barack Obama continuing in his speech.

SPEAKER_07 1:29:43

A belief in the peaceful transfer of power after the people have spoken in fair and free elections, recognizing that in a large, complicated society like ours, no group or faction gets its way a hundred percent of the time. And a belief that qualities of character honesty, integrity, kindness, compassion, sense of duty.

SPEAKER_18 1:30:13

Just admit that you're gay, Barack.

SPEAKER_17 1:30:16

So yeah, let's have one of those fair and free elections so we can see how it shakes out.

SPEAKER_18 1:30:20

Yeah, because you totally conceded the last couple. Holy crap. Obama was on Good Morning America, and they were asked what the next 40 years looks like. You know, what does the future look like for Barack and Michelle Obama? Maybe Michelle. I don't know. We'll see. Okay. So Barack and Michelle Obama. Barack Obama's answer was just kind of a platitude, but Michelle's hers was revealing. One word to describe your next chapter. One word.

SPEAKER_14 1:30:47

Uh me. That's what you call the mic.

SPEAKER_04 1:30:54

You know why you seem to be writing her higher on her answer. Me?

Man,

SPEAKER_29 1:32:11

ma'am, sonny. What in the mic lives in that castle over there? I'm 37. What? I'm 37. I'm not old. Well, I can't just call you ma'am. You could say Dennis. I didn't know you were called Dennis. Well, you didn't bother to find out, did you? I did say sorry about the old woman, but from behind, you look what my objective is they automatically treat me like an inferior. Well, I am king. Oh, king, eh? Very nice. And how'd you get that, eh? By exploiting the workers. By hanging on to outdated imperialist dogma which perpetuates the economic and social differences in our society. If there's ever going to be any progress. Oh how'd you do? How do you do, good lady? I'm Arthur, King of the Britons. Whose castle is that? King of the Who? The Britons. Who are the Britons? Well, we all are. We are all Britons. And I am your king. No, we had a king. I thought we were an autonomous collective. You're fooling yourself. We're living in a dictatorship. A self-perpetuating autocracy in which the working classes. How dare you go? Bringing classes with a game. That's what it's all about. If only people would please good people. I am in haste. Who lives in that castle? No one lives there. Then who is your lord? We don't have a lord. What? I told you. We're in a narco-syndicalist commune. We take it in turns to act as a sort of executive officer for the week. Yes. But all the decisions of that officer have to be ratified at a special bi-weekly meeting. Yes, I see. By a civil majority in the case of purely internal affairs. Be quacked, but by a two-thirds majority in the case of quack. I order you to be quacked. Or do you think he is? I'm your king. You don't vote for kings? Why 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. Bequat! I mean, you can't expect to wield supreme executive power just because some watery tarp through a sword at you. Shut up! I mean, if I went round saying I was an emperor, just because some moistened bitch had lobbed a scimitar at me, they put me away! Shut up, will you? Shut up! Now we see the violence inherent in the system! Shut up! Have we seen 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 repressing me? You saw it, didn't you?
